ACompetition in the Olympics should be between athletes who use their own strength (力量) or speed. If some athletes don't follow the rules, it ruins the fun for everyone connected with the game. It also gives an extremely unfair advantage to the athlete using the drug.— Jim from Atlanta Drug use among top athletes has long been a problem. Without drug testing, the Olympics would be about who uses the most drugs, not who trains the hardest and has the most athletic skills. Also drugs hurt people and they could even kill people.— David from Houston Why should athletes be allowed to compete when it's not really them who are actually competing? It's the drugs that do all the work. Athletes who use drugs are like runners with skates. It's cheating and should not be allowed. It's unfair to other competitors who don't use drugs.—Bruce from Chicago Most sports athletes are held to a standard of being drug free. Olympians should not be held any differently. They take part in highly competitive sports for their country and win medals for it. Testing the athletes for drugs must be done in every country and every sport. No drug testing would be unfair to people who don't use drugs.— Sam from Los Angeles Although popular opinion is against athletes' using drugs, I believe they do help make the Olympic sports more wonderful. I enjoy seeing human beings achieving things that couldn't be done with normal conditioning. I enjoy seeing stronger, faster and longer performances with the help of drugs.— Jack from New York21. What does David think of drug use in the Olympics?A. It's more common in top athletes than others.B. It's a difficult problem to deal with.C. It helps improve athletes' skills.D. It's bad for athletes' health.22. The underlined sentence in Paragraph 3 suggests that _____.A. using drugs is the same as cheatingB. drugs help athletes reach greater speedsC. runners should not be allowed to use drugsD. using drugs can not test athletes' real ability23. Both Jim and Sam mentioned _____.A. the popularity of the OlympicsB. the fairness of the OlympicsC. the rules of the OlympicsD. the fun of the Olympics24. The text is mainly written to _____.A. discuss whether Olympic athletes should be tested for drugsB. explain why drugs should be avoided in the OlympicsC. warn people of the bad influences of drug useD. call people's attention to sports and drugsBIn 1996, John Jones made an unusual discovery. He had just enlarged a piece of paper money for a friend — a Confederate bank note, money issued (发行) by banks in Southern States of America during the Civil War. When he was face to face with the picture, he couldn't believe his eyes: slaves happily picking cotton in their master's fields.Jones grew up in South Carolina. He had heard painful stories of slavery from his great-grandmother. The picture on the money did not match the history of AfricanAmerican slaves that he'd heard all his life. “I had never seen that type of picture on money before,” he said.Jones wondered why slaves looked so happy. He started doing research.Searching for and finding the answers to his questions changed his life. During two years' search, Jones found more than 120 different bills. He discovered that the bills had several things in common. They showed slaves working in jobs related to farming. Many of them showed healthy and smiling slaves at work. None of the bills showed the hardships of slavery.Jones wanted to share what he had learned. “I wanted other people to see what I had seen,” he said. He decided to make lar ge paintings of the pictures on the money. After three years of work, Jones had painted more than 80 slavery scenes (场景). He paired each painting with the money on which the picture appeared. “The Color of Money” — an exhibit (展览) of his work — has toured the country.Jones' paintings tell an important story about the South 150 years ago. He likes to repeat the saying “The story is on the money.” In this case, the saying happens to be true.25. How did Jones feel when he saw the picture on the money?A. Angry.B. Painful.C. Excited.D. Surprised.26. Why did Jones do research on the money?A. He had never heard of Confederate money.B. He wanted to learn about American history through it.C. It showed slaves quite different from those in his mind.D. His great-grandmother told him some unusual stories about it.27. What did Jones find?A. About 120 different bills were issued during the Civil War.B. The difficulty of slaves was never shown on the bills.C. Slaves lived a harder life than he thought.D. Slaves worked long hours on farms.28. What's the best title for the text?A. Confederate MoneyB. Money Tells a StoryC. African American SlavesD. John Jones Changes AmericaCA team of middle schoolers from North Dakota has turned a prize-winning idea into reality with their Recycling Bin app (废物回收箱应用软件). The app encourages recycling by providing users with a searchable map of nearby recycling centers.The group of nine sixth graders from STEM Center Middle School, in West Fargo, North Dakota, came up with the idea as part of a school program for the Verizon Innovative App Challenge. The competition was designed by the Verizon Foundation to increase students' interest in science, technology, engineering, and math, or STEM. It asks students to think of an app that could solve (解决) a problem in their school. The students came up with the Recycling Bin when they saw a need for more recycling in their school for a long time. “We thought that this would really help a lot of people,” Jaden Hilkemann, 12, said.They kept their idea simple so that anyone could use it. The middle schoolers were surprised when they were among the ten national winning teams. “I didn't think our app was this good!” Joram Stith, 12, said. “We were the youngest winning group.”With the help of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology's Media Lab, they turned their idea into an app ready for download. “We had groups of two or three people each developing one part of the app,” Hunter Koehmstedt, 12, said. “We worked together and it was great.” Jacob Pfeifer, 12, added that they le arned a lot working together. “At first, we all didn't agree on exactly what we wanted it to do, but in the end we all came to an agreement,” he said.In June, the free Recycling Bin app became available for download. “I was very excited when it went up on the app store,” Seralyn Blake, 12, said. “A lot of my family members downloaded the app. It was pretty cool.”29. What do we know about the Verizon Innovative App Challenge?A. It was held by STEM Center Middle School.B. It is a competition for middle school students.C. It was designed to help solve environmental problems.D. It encourages students to develop an interest in STEM.30. The idea for the Recycling Bin _____.A. proved to be highly usefulB. came into being quite by chanceC. came from a 12-year-old in West FargoD. resulted from the bad recycling situation in North Dakota31. What did the group of nine sixth graders think of their app?A. It was popular among middle school students.B. Its winning was beyond their expectations.C. It was the simplest of the winning apps.D. It was good enough to win.32. While turning their idea into reality, the prize-winning members _____.A. learned a lot from each otherB. could hardly reach an agreementC. had no idea how to divide the workD. downloaded an app for further researchDDuring the day, Mike Kosciuk teaches students at De La Salle Collegiate High School in Michigan. However, in the evenings and on weekends, Mike provides instruction on . Not only does he teach students math from 9th grade through college level, he also teaches other online teachers how to improve their teaching. Recognized as a leader in online teaching, Mike was the February 2010 Tutor of the Month for .Chrissy Markley is one of many online teachers who are taking virtual (虚拟的) learning to the lower grades. At Arizona Connections Academy, an online publicschool, Chrissy teaches 7/8th Grade Gifted Language Arts and 9th Grade Language Arts. Once a 6th grade teacher in a traditional public school area, Chrissy enjoys teaching in the virtual classroom. Recognized as an excellent teacher, she was named the school's 2011 Teacher of the Year.Having ten years' experience in online teaching, Jody Shine began teaching with Davenport University. When she was asked to teach online, she was skeptical at first. “I feared something would be lost in the give and take of classroom discussion,” Jody said. “Now I know online teaching allows students greater freedom to express themselves.” Today, Jody uses voice recordings a nd online videos to teach English Composition to Davenport students.Like Arizona Connections Academy, Open High School of Utah is also a public school offering online instruction. There, Amy Pace is an award-winning (获奖的) science teacher. After spending 11 years in a traditional teaching environment, Amy joined Open High School of Utah. She has helped create an interesting science course.

Unit 2The Olympic Games本套试卷分为第Ⅰ卷和第Ⅱ卷两部分。
总分120分。
考试时间100分钟。
第Ⅰ卷Ⅰ.阅读理解(共两节,满分35分)第一节(共10小题;每小题2.5分,满分25分)AIt was a Saturday morning,a day I believed would end in victory.For weeks,I had been preparing for the match at the county fairgrounds,sponsored(赞助) by our local riding club.My horse,Tonka, and I could run faster than any other kid in the county, and I hoped to bring home a blue ribbon.My mother usually drove me to the riding events, but on this day, my father planned to drop us off at the fairgrounds with the horse trailer(马车).Although we never discussed it, my father's struggle with alcoholism had become the silent centre of our family life.My mother was paralyzed with fear and indecision.Her salary as a part-time nurse couldn't possibly support four children.No one talked about alcoholism in those days,and it was my family secret.We climbed on the trailer and my father pulled out of our driveway and headed towards the fairgrounds,picking up speed once we hit the main road.It wasn't until we felt a big bump that I realized the trailer was out of control.The dream of my riding winner disappeared.Tonka lay on the floor, completely still.No words were possible.I knew he was dead.Suddenly a man appeared.“Are you all right?” he asked.“Yes.”I answered,although I knew that nothing was all right.“Sit here on the grass,”he said.He bent down to look into the trailer.Tonka remained still.He touched Tonka and then turned to face me.“He is going to be OK.He has just been knocked unconscious.” He rubbed Tonka's cheeks and gently pulled his ears.Tonka rose to his feet.Our father was talking to a police officer.He was upset and in pain and took little notice of me.I looked back;the man was gone.I never forgot him.He gave me strength and a sense of hope in a dark and frightening moment.1.The writer went to the fairgrounds because he wanted to ________.A.take part in a horse racingB.buy Mum a blue ribbonC.join the local riding clubD.train his horse there2.We can learn from the third paragraph that ________.A.the family kept silent at homeB.the family lived a secret lifeC.Father was addicted to alcoholD.Mother was physically disabled3.What does the author want to tell the readers through the story?A.Once formed,bad habits are difficult to break.B.Unexpected kindness is a light that shines in the darkness.C.However mean your life is,meet it and live it.D.Family is a place of encouragement, a safe harbour in the storms.BSince I became a full-time freelancer(自由职业者), I've found one of the hardest things to do is to get up early. Without the danger of being fired, there just hasn't been a lot of motivation(动机) to get out of bed.I've quickly learned that getting up is the key to success and better yet: waking up early is really just a habit.The most important thing to keep in mind is that you must have strong reasons to get out of bed. Motivation is the only thing keeping us from lying in bed all day.Writing down all the big and important things you'll do the next day can give you an extra push in your goal to wake up early and quickly.Don't read in bed. Spending as little time as possible in bed will actually help your body realize that the bed is for sleeping, and not for lying awake for hours. The goal of reading in bed is just to help you fall asleep within 10 minutes.Stress is one of the main causes of poor sleep. Relax yourself before getting into bed. Try controlling breathing exercises or taking yoga exercises to lower your stress level.These are just a few ways you can use to wake up earlier. Finding the best way is the most important, and it requires a little work. The key thing is that waking up should be a pleasant experience. If you can make waking up something you are looking forward to, you're already halfway on your journey towards becoming an early riser.4.What do we know about the author?A.He has a full-time job outside. B.He likes lying in bed all day.C.He was once fired by a company. D.He has difficulty getting up early.5.The author gives us some tips to help us________.A.find the key to success B.become an early riserC.fall asleep within 10 minutes D.relax after a day's hard work6.Which of the following is NOT true about doing yoga?A.It is a good way to reduce stress. B.It can help you sleep.C.It can make you worried. D.It will help you wake up earlier.CWhat an athlete eats before, during and after exercise is important for comfort and performance during exercise. While eating soon before exercise doesn't provide the fuel needed for the activity, it can prevent hunger during exercise. The major source of fuel for muscles is stored in the days before exercise. This is one reason that the post-exercise meal is very important to recovery and being ready for the next exercise.Exercising on a full stomach is not a good idea. Food that remains in your stomach during an event may cause stomach upset. To make sure you have enough energy, yet reduce stomach discomfort, you should allow a meal to fully digest before the start of the event.If you have an early morning race or exercise, it's best to get up early enough to eat your pre-exercise meal. If not, you should try to eat or drink something easily digestible about 20~30 minutes before the event. The closer you are to the time of your event the less you should eat. You can have a liquid meal closer to your event than a solid meal because your stomach digests liquids faster.Because glucose(葡萄糖) is the energy source for most exercise, a pre-exercise meal should include foods that are high in carbohydrates and easy to digest. This includes foods such as fruit, bread, energy bars and drinks.Planning is necessary if you are competing in an all-day event, such as track meets or other tournaments. You should plan ahead and prepare meals and snacks that you have tried before. Do not experiment with something new on the event day.7.Fully digesting before an event may________.A.cause stomach upset B.give enough energy and stomach discomfort C.give comfort and good performance during exercise D.lead to hunger during exercise8.From the passage we can learn________.A.you'd better have your pre-exercise meal after an early morning raceB.fruits and bread are high in glucose and easy to digestC.planning is not necessary for track meetsD.you can try something new for your meals on the event day9.What does the underlined word “digest” mean?A.Absorb. B.Interest. C.Disappear. D.Recover.10.What is the best title for the passage?A.Tips for eating before exercise B.What to eat during exerciseC.Fully digesting before exercise D.Planning for your exercise第二节(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

Have you lost your mind?”I hadn't lost my mind,but I had lost my fire.It's an entirely different thing to push toward that dream when you feel alone.“I'm not trying to break your heart,Mom,”I said.“I just don't want to do it anymore.” “I know you miss home.But you've signed a contract that says you will represent your country to the best of your ability.You've got a responsibility to your teammates.Andnow you just want to walk away? I will not let you be dishonorable.If you don't like gymnastics,then at the very least,you will finish the season.”The next afternoon as I dragged myself into Chow's gym,I thought of the efforts Mom had made in order to pay for my training.I thought of my two sisters: Arielle,who gave up ballroom dancing,and Joyelle,who stopped ice skating so that our single mom could afford to keep me in gymnastics.For now,here's what you need to know: Exactly 210 days before I ever attempted my first vault (跳跃) in the London Summer Olympics,my leap of faith came this close to ending in a crash of disaster.()16.The author wanted to give up gymnastics because ________.A.she thought she loved music moreB.she was overcome with homesicknessC.an Olympic gold was beyond her reachD.the training for the Olympics was too hard()17.How did the author's mother feel on hearing her words?A.Heart-broken.B.Delighted.C.Helpless.D.Calm.()18.We can infer from the passage that the author ________.A.was born into an athletic familyB.realized her Olympic dreamC.changed her mind in the endD.had a bad childhood()19.What would be the best title for the passage?A.A Dream Come TrueB.My Leap of FaithC.My MotherD.A Quitter()20.Who will be interested in the passage?A.A medical student who will graduate from university.B.A healthcare professional who will give a lecture on cancer.C.A marketing professional who is looking for customers.D.A gymnastic player who wants to give up competition.【语篇解读】本文是记叙文。

Three years ago, few people would go swimming in the icy waters. But now there is a Winter-swimming Enthusiasts’ Club(冬泳爱好者协会)and it has more than 2,000 members. The oldest is 84 years old and the youngest is only 7. The members are from all walks of life. They may be workers, peasants, soldiers, teachers, students…Though it is now the coldest part of the season and the water t emperature in the city’s lakes is around 0℃, many winter-swimmers still swim in the icy waters, even when it is snowing. They enjoy themselves in the lake, while the people by the side of the lake are wearing heavy clothes.Why are so many people interested in winter-swimming? Because winter-swimming can be good for one’s health.Bei Sha is a good example. He is 69, and he once suffered from heart trouble for 26 years.

Winter-swimmers Are Brave MenBRecently Dr. Cleiman has proved that everyone has a daily energy cycle.During the hours when you labour through your work, you may say that you are “hot”. That is true. The time of day when you feel most energetic is when your cycle of body temperature is at its peak (top).For some people the peak comes during the forenoon. For others it comes in the afternoon or evening. No one has discovered why this is so.Much family quarrelling ends when husbands and wives realize what this energy cycle means and which cycle each member of the family has.You can’t change your cycle, but you can learn to make your life fit it better.

AOn a day in Arkansas, some fishermen saw a bear cub(幼兽)in a tree. As hours went by, its mother didn’t return. So they called wildlife biologist(生物学家)Eastridge.The bear cub was sick and hungry, weighing only 5 pounds with his eyes not completely open. Eastridge called Lisa Stewart, who works at Appalachian Bear Rescue in Tennessee. Stewart always makes room for a new cub.She named the bear Miracle because she thought it was a miracle that he had survived! As soon as she could, she stopped having contact with the cub so he would not become too used to humans. When the cub arrived, Stewart cleaned his eyes and put him in a house alone. Since Miracle was already 5 months old, Stewart gave him bowls of food and another bowl of a special formula(配方奶), similar to a bear mother’s milk. Sometimes, Miracle would reach his head out of his house and take some formula or food. But he didn’t eat too much.Miracle was too weak to be with other bears. So Stewart gave him a toy bear named Buddy. He took it into his house and covered it with straw(稻草). He fed Buddy, too. Stewart often found the toy covered in formula and berries and its ears full of apple chunks. Now that Miracle had Buddy, he came out of his house more often and wanted to eat.After two months, Stewart introduced Miracle to other bears so that they could learn from one another. She avoided any direct contact with Miracle and the other bears. Stewart wanted to make sure they stayed afraid of humans so they could go back into the wild again. She always hid behind a fence(栅栏)and threw food over the top secretly. The bears hunted for this food as they would soon do in the wild.Five months later, Rick Eastridge returned to pick up a healthy 90- pound Miracle and another bear from Arkansas named Rocky. Eastridge loaded the bears into boxes on his truck and transported them back to the wild. As soon as the bear boxes were opened, the two cubs ran to the woods- where they belonged.1. A toy bear was given to Miracle in order to ________.A. remind him not to waste his foodB. kill his lonely time in his houseC. develop his skills of making friendsD. rid Miracle of his fear of humans2. Why did Stewart always give food to Miracle in secret?A. Because he could learn how to find food in the wild.B. Because he was too weak to be frightened by humans.C. Because a good relationship could be developed.D. Because she didn’t want to disturb his peaceful life.3. What is the best title for this passage?A. An Unusual BearB. The Growth of MiracleC. Rescuing MiracleD. Contacting MiracleBA mother goat is able to pick out her own baby from its voice alone by the time the kid is just five days old.Researchers from University of London played kids’ bleats to female goats and studied their responses. They were surprised to find that the animals were able to pick out their own kids’ voices.“A mother and the kid rely a lot on smell to recognize one another and, in the wild, during the first week of their lives, the animals hide in grass and don’t call much. It’s a strategy they use to avoid enemies,” Dr Elodie Briefer, who led the research, explained to BBC News. “The mother calls to the kids when she wants them to come and feed, so we expected that kids would recognize the mothers’ voices.” In fact, this was the case for deer, which also use this hiding strategy, although they do not belong to the same family of species as goats.She and her team recorded and played back young kids’ calls to the female goats and recorded their responses. She explained, “Even when the calls came from kids that are five to six days old, we could see the mothers responding more to the voices of their own babies.” Hearing the voices of their own kids, the females would look towards the speaker that the sound was coming from, moving around and calling in response.The scientists say that understanding how goats behave and communicate is very important. “This helps us understand just how smart these animals are,” said Dr Briefer. “Farmers might be able to change their way to raise goats considering this natural behavior.”4. What does the underlined word "bleats" in Paragraph 2 mean?A. HabitsB. V oicesC. ResponsesD. Videos5. During the first few days of the baby deer, the mother and the kid mainly depend on to recognize each other when they are hiding in grass.A. voiceB. touchC. videosD. smell6.In the experiment,what does a mother goat do when hearing her kids’ voices?A. Making voice in response.B. Jumping over and over.C. Hiding herself somewhere.D. Behaving just as usual.7. The passage is mainly written for ________ to read.A. teachersB. writersC. farmersD. lawyersCCold weather can be hard on pets, just like it can be hard on people. Sometimes owners forget that their cats are just as used to the warm shelter(住所)as they are. Some owners will leave their animals outside for a long period of time, thinking that all animals are used to living outdoors. This can put their pets in danger of serious illnesses. There are things you can do to keep your animals warm and safe.Keep your pets inside as much as you can when the weather is bad. If you have to take them out, stay outside with them. When you’re cold enough to go inside, they probably are too. If you must leave them outside for a long time, make sure they have a warm, solid shelter against the wind, thick bedding, and plenty of non-frozen water.If left alone outside, dogs and cats can be very smart in their search for warm shelters. They can dig into snow banks or hide somewhere. Watch them closely when they are left outdoors, and provide them with shelters of good quality. Keep an eye on your pets’ water. Sometimes owners don’t realize that a water bowl has frozen and their pets can’t get anything to drink. Animals that don’t have clean and unfrozen water may drink dirty water outside, which may contain something unhealthy for them.8. What do we learn about pets from Paragraph 1?A. They are often forgotten by their owners.B. They are used to living outdoors.C. They like to stay in warm places.D. They build their own shelters.9. Why are pet owners asked to stay with their pets when they are out in cold weather?A. To keep them company.B. To keep them from eating bad food.C. To help them find shelters.D. To know when to bring them inside.10. What is the purpose of this text?A. To solve a problem.B. To give practical advice.C. To tell an interesting story.D. To present a research result.第二节(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

Upon arrival in the West, many Chinese find they have to firstly put on the brakes. Li Feng, raised in northern China and now based in England, agrees. "The only thing Chinese people would be shocked by in Britain is how long it takes to do things," he says. "For instance, in China if you want to open a bank account, you don't wait, you just do it at the counter." Out-of-hours and weekend work is standard in China, but in Britain, the weekend is for family and friends.Jack Chen, who left his homeland 12 years ago and is now a lawyer in Belgium says office politics are simpler in Europe, partly because the hierarchy (等级制度) is less rigid than in China, where the boss really is the boss and social class in the office is very obvious and important. As a result, staff in a Chinese company think very carefully about how to present their views and ideas. Employees in the West can share their opinions more freely. In China you should have the wisdom to say something in an appropriate way. But in Europe you can just say what you want.The newest Chinese arrivals have a very different view to previous generations, according to Sharon Jin, who moved to the US 20 years ago and is now an American citizen. "Almost 100% of the people of my generation who came to the United States want to get a green card," she says. "But today younger Chinese plan to work for 10 years here and then return to China to buy a house or look after their parents." While a record number of 523,700 students left China to study elsewhere in 2015, roughly 70%—80% of the students abroad have been returning in recent years because of the attractive job market at home, according to the Chinese Ministry of Education.1.What do many Chinese find surprising while in Britain?A.That they drive faster than the drivers in Britain.B.That they can open a bank account at any time.C.That working extra hours in Britain is very common.D.That working pace in Britain is less fast than at home.2.What can be inferred from Paragraph 2?A.Jack Chen has been a lawyer in Belgium for 12 years.B.Employees in the West show less respect for their boss.C.Chinese employees are cautious when presenting ideas.D.People in Europe express themselves in a modest way.3.Why do most students return to China according to the Chinese Ministry of Education?A.It's hard for them to get a green card.B.It's easy for them to buy a house at home.C.They will have to look after their parents.D.There are more job opportunities in China.4.How does the writer organize the text?A.By interviewing students abroad.B.By comparing the differences.C.By discussing some facts.D.By listing some figures.CFinding a suitable name for a baby is a big deal in China. When picking out a Chinese name, parents usually select two or three characters that have a carefully thought-out meaning, but when deciding on an English name, many of them struggle. That's where Jessup and her company, Special Name, come in. In the last few years, Jessup has helped name 677,900 Chinese babies, and earned over $400,000 in the process, more than enough to pay her college fees.Jessup came up with the idea for Special Name in 2015, after accompanying her father on a business trip to China. One of her dad's business partners, a Mrs Wang, asked her to help choose an English name for her daughter. Jessup felt honoured and quickly realised the importance of choosing a proper name in Chinese culture. The woman wanted people to be surprised by the things her daughter could achieve, so Jessup suggested the name "Eliza" after the character Eliza Doolittle from the playPygmalion. Mrs Wang seemed delighted with Jessup's choice. "If Mrs Wang needed this service, maybe other parents would as well," Jessup thought.After returning to UK, Jessup borrowed £1,500 from her parents and paid a web designer to build a website. She then spent her free time filling up a database with around 4,000 English names, associating them with five major characteristics, like honesty and optimism.In the beginning, Jessup offered the service for free to promote the website, but later, she started charging fees. The business is almost completely self-sufficient, requiring only a small team in China that manages the technical operation. She updates the database each month, allowing her to focus full-time on her studies.1.What's the purpose of Special Name?A.To help Chinese teens go abroad.B.To strengthen children's personalities.C.To pick an English name for a Chinese baby.D.To make a deal with Chinese parents.2.What inspired Jessup to set up Special Name?A.A suggestion from a business partner.B.Her interest in Chinese culture.C.A Chinese mother's request.D.A character from a play.3.What did Mrs Wang want her daughter to be in the future?A.A woman with achievements.B.A famous actress.C.A successful businesswoman.D.A western culture expert.4.What can we infer from the last paragraph about Special Name?A.It offers a free service.B.It's updated every day.C.It's operated completely by itself.D.It is easy to manage.DJennifer Mauer has needed more willpower than the typical college student to pursue her goal of earning a nursing degree. That willpower bore fruit when Jennifer graduated from University of Wisconsin-Eau Claire and became the first in her large family to earn a bachelor's degree.Mauer, of Edgar, Wisconsin, grew up on a farm in a family of 10 children. Her dad worked at a job away from the farm, and her mother ran the farm with the kids. After high school, Jennifer attended a local technical college, working to pay her tuition(学费), because there was no extra money set aside for a college education. After graduation, she worked to help her sisters and brothers pay for their schooling.Jennifer now is married and has three children of her own. She decided to go back to college to advance her career and to be able to better support her family while doing something she loves: nursing. She chose the UW-Eau Claire program at Ministry Saint Joseph's Hospital in Marshfield because she was able to pursue her four-year degree close to home. She could drive to class and be home in the evening to help with her kids. Jennifer received great support from her family as she worked to earn her degree: Her husband worked two jobs to cover the bills, and her 68-year-old mother helped take care of the children at times.Through it all, she remained in good academic standing and graduated with honors. Jennifer sacrificed(牺牲) to achieve her goal, giving up many nights with her kids and missing important events to study. "Some nights my heart was breaking to have to pick between my kids and studying for exams or papers," she says. However her children have learned an important lesson witnessing their mother earn her degree. Jennifer is a first-generation graduate and an inspiration to her family—and that's pretty powerful.1.What did Jennifer do after high school?A.She helped her dad with his work.B.She ran the family farm on her own.C.She supported herself through college.D.She taught her sisters and brothers at home.2.Why did Jennifer choose the program at Ministry Saint Joseph's Hospital in Marshfield?A.To take care of her kids easily.B.To learn from the best nurses.C.To save money for her parents.D.To find a well-paid job there.3.What did Jennifer sacrifice to achieve her goal?A.Her health.B.Her time with family.C.Her reputation.D.Her chance of promotion.4.What can we learn from Jennifer's story?A.Time is money.B.Love breaks down barriers.C.Hard work pays off.cation is the key to第二节(共5小题;每小题2.5分,满分12.5分)根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

ASince the modern Olympics began in 1896, it has been held in more than 40 different cities. That gives Olympic fans quite a few possible travel destinations to choose.Beijing, ChinaOlympic fans should consider visiting the Beijing Olympic Park to check out the special buildings of the so-called “Bird’s Nest” and “Water Cube” —the national stadium and aquatics center built for the 2008Beijing Olympics. Popular historic places in Beijing include the Forbidden City, the Summer Palace, and Tian’anmen Square.Innsbruck, AustriaLocated in the heart of the Alps, Innsbruck is known as a great winter destination — which explains why it has hosted not one but two Winter Olympics. Known for its mountainous views, Innsbruck is the perfect stop for outdoor adventurers.Mexico City, MexicoThis wonderful travel destination offers a wide number of popular museums, historic buildings, and public parks. People will love shopping for fresh meat and produce at the markets, taking a cooking class, and generally eating their way through Mexico City, which is especially known for its culinary (烹饪的) experiences that include both globally well-known restaurants and locally favored street carts.Melbourne, AustraliaNearly half a century before Sydney hosted the 2000 Summer Olympics, Melbourne became the first Australian host city in 1956. Head to the “cultural capital of Australia”, located in Victoria on the southeastern coast, for an energetic cafe culture and art scene. Melbourne offers something for every type of traveler and everyone can enjoy an evening at one of the city’s many rooftop bars or a day of wine tasting.1. Where will you go if you want to make an adventurous trip?A. Beijing, China.B. Innsbruck, Austria.C. Mexico City, Mexico.D. Melbourne, Australia.2. What can visitors do in Mexico City?A.

It is famous for all kinds of wine.B. It has many world-famous hotels.C. It hosted the Summer Olympics twice.D. It can satisfy the needs of every kind of traveler.BMany of the Earth’s creatures die because of humans’ choices. These choices have nothing to do with food or shelter or anything else that helps humans survive. What kills millions of animals all over the world is that humans want to make money by doing so.People use parts of animals for everything from hats to handbags,fromjewelry to ashtrays and to make powders that supposedly improve a person's life. Deciding that a species is endangered and protecting it by law are not always enough. People who kill wildlife illegally rarely get caught.During the late 1980s, saving elephants became a popular cause. Wildlife protection groups made sure everyone saw pictures or films of elephants with their faces cut off for their ivory. These groups also proved that certain populations of elephants were decreasing. As a result, most people stopped buying objects made of ivory. Laws against poaching (偷猎) were made stronger. Many countries made importing ivory illegal. Killing elephants for their ivory became more risky and less profitable.However, concern for certain species will become weak after a while. Inthe late 1970s, people protested against the killing of seal babies, Everyonewas shocked to see young seals being killed in their icy habitat. The cruel activity stopped. But ten years later, the number of seal babies killed washigher than ever.Other animal protection movements have come and gone, such as savingthe whales and protecting dolphins. The whale population appears to haveincreased for now. And the laws are finally changed in America to protectthe dolphins that swim with tuna fish in parts of the Pacific Ocean.In the years to come, people's attention will probably turn to some otherendangered species. Plenty of them urgently need attention. Duringthistime, will the elephants be forgotten?4. What leads to the disappearance of millions of wild animals?A. The growing human population.B. Humans’ hope for making a fortune.C. Humans’ too much need for wild food.D. Not having enough laws on wildlife protection.5. What can you infer from the text about what happened in the late 1980s?A. Wildlife protection groups did make great efforts.B. Importing ivory in all countries is illegal.C. Those who killed elephants all got caught.D. Hunting was completely not allowed.6. Why are seal babies mentioned in Paragraph 4?A. To show the effort to protect seal babies.B. To show an increasing number of seal babies.C. To show the decrease of worry about certain species.D. To show people’s protest against the killing of sea l babies.7. What does the author mean by using the underlined sentence?A. Humans should choose some rare animals to protect.B. Attention must be paid to saving some endangered wildlife.C. Success has been achieved in quite a few cases of wildlifeprotection.D. Concern and movements for animal protection should be always kept.CFour wild young pandas were found at different times walking around with their mothers in a nature reserve in northwestern China in recent months, a report said on Sunday. Infrared (红外线的) cameras in Baishuijiang National Nature Reserve in Gansu Province caught four young pandas following their mothers and learning survival skills,such as feeding themselves, in the first quarter of 2019.It was the latest finding of new young pandas in the area, which has the largest population of wild pandas among China’s 67 nature reserves. The fourth national survey on pandas, released in 2015, said there were 110 wild pandas living in the Baishuijiang area.
