Groups of about a dozen students each, led by an experienced guide, will go on ten-day camping trips to the mountains to study the plants and animals that grow and live there.（51题依据）Students carry their own things, which includes sleeping bags, warm clothing, food and water, and other useful tools. And what do the students do all day? Well, as soon as the sun comes up, they eat breakfast and start climbing up the mountain trail to the next campground（54题依据）, which is five to ten miles away. As the students take notes, the guide points out different plants and animals alongside the trail. The climb is usually over by early afternoon, so the group spends the rest of the day resting or swimming in a mountain lake. Before dinner each night, they all come together and discuss the day's activities.At the end of the course, the students write reports using the information they have collected. But they don't mind at all. What they do mind is leaving the beauty of the wilderness and the good friends they've made to return to their normal lives in the city.（1）What can the course offer to the students?A . Better grades in tests.B . Free vacations in mountains.C . A different learning experience.D . Better chance to study in Carvel College.（2）How far does a student have to walk throughout the course?A . About five to ten miles.B . About two hundred miles.C . About fifty to one hundred miles.D .

Carvel College will provide everything for the students16. （6分）根据短文内容，判断下列句子是否正确.Plants are very important living things. Life could not go if there were no plants. This is because plants can produce food from the air, water and sunlight. Animals and man cannot produce food from the air, water and sunlight as plants do. Animals get their food by eating plants or other animals which eat plants. So animals and man need plants in order to live.If you look carefully at the plants around you, you will find that there are two kinds of plants: flowering plants and non-flowering ones.Flowering plants can make seeds. The seeds are protected by the fruits. Some fruits have one seed. Some have two, three or four. Some have many. But a few fruits have no seeds at all. An example of a fruit without seeds is the banana.Most non-flowering plants don't grow from seeds. They grow from spores (孢子). Spores are very, very small. Some spores are so small and light that they can float in the air. We may say that spores are quite the same as the seeds. When these spores fall on wet and shady places, they usually grow into new plants.（1）Plants are very important to life.（2）Both animals and plants can produce food from the air, water and sunlight.（3）Banana is a fruit that does not have seeds.（4）All the flowering plants have many seeds.（5）Spores can grow into new plants wherever they fall.17. （8分）阅读理解In today's world, understanding how to analyze big data is a significant tool for students, scientists, and citizens alike-and a key topic during both speeches at the 2019 Research Teachers Conference.During their speeches, Lisa Purcell, Senior Scientist at Regeneron and Ruth Krumhansl, founder of the Oceans of Data Institute, both offered recommendations(推荐信) to more than 200 teachers at the conference on how to effectively use big data in the classroom."Having a lot of data is worthless unless you can make sense of it," Ruth said. "We have aresponsibility to help our students make wise decisions in a very complex world. " Ruth explained that she is always seeking to increase data literacy(数据素养能力)and transform science education using big data. With these resources, students can conduct a variety of big data research projects -all from the classroom. Moreover, even students interested in non-STEM(科学、技术、工程、数学)careers like consulting or business analytics can benefit from understanding how to analyze and understand data sets.Lisa stressed that teachers have the power to change the world by providing the next generation with the correct analytical tools and approaches to handle such large quantities of information. "You can train the next generation with them to do whatever, whether it's dealing with climate change, creating a vaccine (疫苗) for Ebola, or becoming the next President of the U. S. or Prime Minister of Canada," Lisa said.Understanding big data is critical to students' success in school and their future careers. According to Ruth, students should begin working with data from a young age. This will enable students to practice analytical thinking as early as possible, and to begin asking important questions about what is going on in our world. And big data can help answer questions that students have. "Students are interested in what is known, but they get more excited about what is not known," she said.（1）According to Paragraph 2, we know the speeches of Lisa and Ruth _______.A . advise students to increase data literacyB . ask teachers to know how to analyze big dataC . show the significance of big data in non-STEMD . advise teachers to apply big data in the classroom（2）What can we know about Ruth?A . She was a real specialist in analyzing big data.B . She laid the base for students to do big data projects.C . She stressed the important role of teachers in using big data.D . She made outstanding achievements with the help of big data.（3）Which of the following may Lisa agree with?A . Teachers are given the power to change the world.B . Teachers should try to transform science education.C . Teachers can help students apply big data to many fields.D . Teachers know the importance of big data for students.（4）What may be the best title for the passage?A . How can students analyze big data?B . How can students make use of big data?C . Big data-a significant tool in today's classroomD . Big data-a necessary subject for students to learn四、任务型阅读（共10分，每小题2分） (共1题；共10分)18. （10分）配对阅读：左栏是学生在日常生活中容易出现的安全事故，右栏是相对应的解决方案，请为每一位选择最适合的方案。

Yet, I decided to go ahead.I remember back to my 7th year in school. After my first PE class, the teacher told me that I was "not athletic (运动型的)". The idea that I was "not athletic" stuck with me for years. When I started running in my 30s, I realized running was a fight against myself, not about competition or whether or not I was athletic. It was all about the fight against my own body and mind. A test of wills!The night before my marathon, I dreamed that I couldn't even find the finish line.I woke up, being helpless and nervous but ready to prove something to myself. Shortly after crossing the start line, my shoe lace became untied. So I stopped to tie it. Not the start I wanted! I had been left behind others at the beginning.At mile 3, I passed a sign: "GO FOR IT, RUNNERS!"By mile 17, I became out of breath and the once-hurt-ankle hurt badly, but I still stayed the course, walking a bit and then running again.As I came near to mile 23, I could see my wife waving a sign. She is my biggest fan. She never minded the alarm clock sounding at 4 a. m. or questioned my expenses on running.I was one of the final runners to finish. But I finished! And I got a medal. In fact, I got the same medal as the one that the person who came in first place had. I can now call myself a "marathon winner".24．What happened to the writer a month before his marathon?A．He hurt his knees.B．He got hurt in one ankle.C．He wanted to give up.D．He went back to his school.25．According to the PE teacher in the 7th year in school, the writer________.A．didn't train hard B．could finish the marathonC．wasn't good at sports D．would get support from many fans26．What does the story mainly tell us?A．One is never too old to learn.B．Failure is the mother of success.C．A man can make success with the help of family.D．A winner is the one with great effort and a strong will.Each year on Feb 21,UNESCO (联合国教科文组织) holds an International MotherLanguage Day (IMLD). The event is to help people to pay attention to the disappearance of the world's languages; many of them are disappearing each year. UNESCO sees this as a terrible fact.What happens when a language dies out? Something great is lost—not just sounds and words but the way that people understand the world and communicate with each other. We keep different cultures and traditions through languages. Killing a language means all these are killed too.Through IMLD, more and more people come to realize the terrible situation and try to stop it. Google's 2018 Endangered Languages Project is a good example. Many speakers and protectors of endangered languages upload (上传) texts, audios (音频) and videos to the project website. They want to introduce the way that people communicate and express themselves around the world.The Myaamia Project is the same kind of effort to revive the language spoken by the Miami tribes (部落) of the United States. Project members work to encourage people to study and communicate with this language, which died out in the 1960s.These activities give life to those endangered languages. People who work to keep languages alive are not limited to the past. Many young people design apps and use social media (媒体) to support their activities. They "spread the word" to save the world.So, while the problem of disappearing languages remains a very serious one, there is hope. We all have a special feeling of our mother languages. This is why we should remember the wise words of late president of South Africa, Nelson Mandela: "If you talk to a man in a language he understands, that goes to his head. If you talk to a man in his own language, that goes to his heart."27．What did people do in Google's 2018 Endangered Languages Project?A．They provided books on communication skills.B．They discussed how to make good use of the Internet.C．They shared materials about endangered languages online.D．They translated endangered languages into mother languages.28．The word "revive" in Paragraph 4 probably means "________."A．start reusing B．remember choosingC．try creating D．continue experimenting29．What can we infer from Paragraph 5?A．The disappearance of languages has already stopped.B．It's impossible for young people to protect languages.C．Fewer and fewer people work to keep languages alive.D．Young people have creative ways to protect languages.30．The writer mentions Nelson Mandela's words in order to ________.A．express his thought of language protectionB．stress the importance of one's mother languageC．tell the trouble in learning endangered languagesD．remind us of the problem of disappearing languagesSmarter than We ThoughtIt's a popular belief that fish can't remember anything for longer than seven seconds.It may seem sad to think that they don't remember what they've eaten or where they've been, and they don't recognize you or any of their friends—every moment in their lives would be like seeing the world for the first time.But don't be so quick to feel sorry for them. A recent study has found that fish have much better memories than we used to think. In fact, certain kinds of fish can even remember events from as long as 12 days ago, BBC reported.In the study, researchers from MacEwan University in Canada trained a kind of fish called African cichlids to go to a certain area of their tank to get food. They then waited for 12 days before putting them back in the tank again.Researchers used computer software (软件) to monitor the fish's movements. They found that after such a long break the fish still went to the same place where they first got food. This suggested that they could remember their past experiences.In fact, scientists had been thinking for a long time that African cichlids might have a goodmemory.An earlier study showed that they behaved aggressively (攻击性地) in front of certain fish, perhaps because they remembered their past fights. But until the latest findings, there was no clear evidence (证据).Just as a good memory can make our lives easier, it also plays an important part when a fish is trying to live in the wild."If fish are able to remember that a certain area has safe food, they will be able to go back to that area without putting their lives in danger," lead researcher Trevor Hamilton told Live Science.For a long time, fish were placed far below chimpanzees (黑猩猩), dolphins and mice on the list of smart animals. But this study has given scientists a new understanding of their intelligence（智力).So next time you are watching your pet fish from outside the tank, perhaps you should feel closer to them—they may remember who you are.31．What is a popular belief about fish?A．Fish can remember things for a very short time.B．Fish can only remember part of their experiences.C．Fish can remember things that happened 12 days ago.D．Fish can remember things for longer than three minutes.32．According to the passage, fish can ________with a good memory.A．know where to escape and keep safeB．find their enemies and fight with themC．remember where to get food and stay aliveD．recognize their friends and help each other33．What can we learn from the passage?A．Our pet fish can surely remember who we are.B．Fish are as clever as chimpanzees, dolphins and mice.C．Clear evidence has shown certain fish can remember their past fights.D．African cichlids can even remember events from as long as 12 days ago.二、东城区Thinking about going camping? You might want to try one of these campsites!Le Val de Cantobre,Aveyron(France)France's number-one campsite is in the Grands Causses Regional Park. There's a swimming pool, a river and a pizza restaurant all on-site. The scenery around the park is beautiful and great for walking.A day here will cost you about €45.Three Cliffs Bay, Gower（Wales)The Three Cliffs Bay is in a beautiful part of the country, and it won't cost you much either: a tent（帐篷）is about €28 a day. There's a shop and some restaurants nearby. You can water-ski from the beach, or go walking along the Gower Way.Playa Montroig Camping Resort, Tarragonna（Spain)This Spanish campsite is great for a family trip, with prices starting from about €20 a night. You'll be able to enjoy the beach by day, and learn about historic Tarragonna in the evenings. The site has restaurants and also offers lots of activities for adults and children.Four Seasons Tented Camp, Golden Triangle(Thailand)This must be one of the most expensive campsites in the world. Instead of tents, there are" canvas cabins"（帆布小屋）. Plus, there's a nice restaurant, a spa and a pool. There are only 15 cabins so you'll have to book early. You can only reach the camp by river boat, but once there you can learn to ride an elephant. One night here will cost you about €50!Have fun and we hope it doesn't rain!21．At Le Val de Cantobre, people can ______________________.A．enjoy the beach B．live in canvas cabinsC．walk in a beautiful park D．learn about historic Tarragonna22．How much does a tent at Three Cliffs Bay cost a day?A．About €20.B．About €28.C．About €45.D．About €50.23．Which campsite can only be reached by river boat?A．Three Cliffs Bay.B．Le Val de Cantobre.C．Four Seasons Tented Camp.D．Playa Montroig Camping Resort.Dean felt his arms and legs were burning. With each breath, Dean wondered if he should be done, but as he touched the wall at the end of the pool he turned for another lap (圈). "I can do one more. This is for Kevin,” Dean told himself. He was starting his seventh lap.Dean and the other members of his swim team were swimming to raise money for Dean's best friend, Kevin Hawking. Earlier in the year, Kevin fell ill. He needed expensive medical care that his family couldn't afford. After Kevin's friends learned what was happening, they started brainstorming ways to help. Several of Kevin's friends were on the swim team, which led to the idea of swimming.For a month, Dean and the other swim team members had asked for pledges（承诺）from anyone who would help: family members, friends, and neighbours. Most people pledged a dollar or two each lap. Dean's grandmother said she would offer $ 10 for each lap Dean swam!Finally, as Dean completed his tenth lap, he knew he was too tired to keep going. If I try another lap. I'll end up lying in the middle of the pool, waiting for someone to come and get me, he thought. Dean pulled himself up onto the edge of the pool and sat breathing quickly for a couple of minutes, quietly resting before he tried to stand.Dean's father came over and said, "Wow, Dean," shaking his head in amazement, "I am so proud of you. That's farther than anyone else has swum today, and I know it's farther than you've ever swum before."Dean stood up and slowly walked with his father back to the seats where the other swimmers sat next to Kevin. "Thank you," Kevin said."It's no big deal. I know you'd do the same for me," Dean said.24．Dean and his swim team members swam to _____________.A．see how far they could swim B．raise money for a sick boyC．get ready for a competition D．have a swimming lesson25．How many laps did Dean complete?A．Seven.B．Eight.C．Ten.D．Eleven.26．Dean's father was proud of him because____________________.A．Dean won the first prize B．Dean made a good friendC．Dean swam faster than before D．Dean tried as hard as he couldArt and science may seem like polar opposites. One involves the creative ideas, and the other cold, hard numbers — or some people believe so. In fact, both require a lot of creativity. People also use both to better understand the world around us. Now, a study finds art also can help students remember better what they have learned in science class.Mariale Hardiman is an education expert at Johns Hopkins University in Baltimore, Md. Back when she was a school headmaster, she had noticed students seemed to remember more of what they had been taught when their lessons had involved art. To test whether and how well art might really improve learning, Hardiman teamed up with other researchers and six local schools.The researchers created art-focused versions （版本）of traditional science lessons. In a traditional science classroom, students might read aloud from a book. In the art-focused class, they might sing the information instead. Each student in the experiment had both an art-focused class and a traditional one.Before and after each period of the experiment, students took tests. They took a third one 10 weeks later. This one tested how well they still remembered what they learned two months earlier. The team also looked at each student's performance in a reading test. This let them compare how art and non-art classrooms influenced students with different learning abilities.Students who read at or above their grade level did just as well in both types of classes. Those who had lower reading abilities got much more of the science if it had been taught in an art-focused class.Hardiman says some kids actually performed best in the third test months later. And classroom teachers reported “many students continued to sing the songs they learned in an art-focused class after finishing the unit. "Students who started in traditional classes performed better after they moved into an art-focused class. But those who started in an art-focused class did well even when they went back to a traditional class. "Some continued to draw or sing to help them remember information, Hardiman notes. "This suggests that the arts may help students use creative ways of learning on their own. ”Everyone benefits from the arts, Hardiman agrees. "All educators should learn how to use the arts as an instructional tool to improve learning. "27．Paragraph 2 mainly introduces ___________________.A．the background of the experiment B．the researchers of the experimentC．the conclusion of the experiment D．the design of the experiment28．By studying the students’ reading performance, the researchers found_____________.A．art had little influence on students' reading abilitiesB．the students with good reading abilities performed better in artC．the students who were good at science had better reading abilitiesD．art helped the students with lower reading abilities learn science better29．Students who started in an art-focused class still did well in a traditional class probably because _________________________.A．they had mastered creative ways to learnB．the art-focused class helped improve their memoryC．the art-focused class taught them how to learn on their ownD．they continued to sing the songs they learned in the art-focused classI'm a big fan of awful first drafts （草稿）. All of my writing starts with a bad first draft with grammatical mistakes and half-finished sentences. No one else sees those drafts. I tear up （撕毁）that awful first draft and start again — and that's when things start to click. That's when sentences become complete, when ideas make sense, and when the real work gets done.Too often, when it comes to self-improvement, we create idealized plans with unnatural rules. We suppose that we will stick to our plans. Monday might be leg day in the gym, but if your kid falls off the bike and needs stitches （缝针）,your carefully made eight-week exercise plan isn't going to get a look.Every plan starts off like an awful first draft. You make stupid mistakes, things you thought were a great idea turn out to be dead ends, and at the end you just need to start again.When a plan fails, the solution （解决办法）isn't to give it up and try a new one next time. It's to build on what worked, cut what didn't and start straight away on a much-improved second draft. Trying to run three miles every day while eating nothing but vegetables might be a terrible idea—but running a few days a week isn't.The benefit of an awful first draft is to use it to get everything down on the page. It doesn't matterwhether you think it's good or bad, you're trying out different things to find out what works and, more importantly, what doesn't. You have to read over your first draft and make changes to write the second. The second draft is where you build on the strong points and cut the weak ones.Sara loved running outside but hated the indoor strength training in her fitness program. How could she make changes to write the second draft? She looked back and saw which part she found fun and easy to stick with and which went wrong.

I wasn't looking forward to going home, because my friends were busy with their own business and weren't able to spend time lazily with me. It's then when I walked past a homeless person that I hadn't seen before. He was moving back and forth（来回的）to stay warm, and very gently asking for some change. His words for money were so quiet that I could hardly hear him.Something made me stop, turn around and walk up to him. At the same time, some thoughts appeared in my head like, "What do you think you're doing?" "You're alone, it's dark out and you're a woman. "Before I knew what I was doing, I asked him if he had had dinner yet and if he would like to join me at a nearby restaurant. He said he hadn't eaten and he would like to. So, he walked with me a few yards to the restaurant and held the door open for me as we entered.He asked for the smallest thing on the menu but I ordered a larger meal and I explained that the price wasn't worth worrying about. We had a good dinner and a pleasant conversation about our life like where we grew up and what kind of music we liked. During the whole time, I just tried to say the right thing and give him the respect and care everyone has. I didn't want to show that I was better than him.I was so grateful for this experience.

They are a flash mob（快闪族）. A flash mob, organized with the help of the Internet or other communications networks, is a group of people who come together suddenly in a public place, do something unusual for a period of time, such as coming together to look at the sky, shouting something at the top of their voices for 30 seconds, and then quickly disappear before the police can arrive.Using mobile phones, the flash mob can change its place if the first one has been replaced for any reason. Bill Wasik, a senior editor, organized the first flash mob in Manhattan in May,2003 and the first successful flash mob came together on June 3,2003—after the first try was foiled at Macy's department store. Following this, about 200 people crowded into the hall of the Hyatt hotel, applauding(鼓掌）in one voice for fifteen seconds, and next the mob pretending（假装）to be tourists on a bus trip entered a shoe shop in Soho. Wasik said that he created flash mobs as a social experiment designed to make fun of hipsters(时尚潮人）.Though flash mobs were firstly regarded as pointless, the idea has already developed for the benefit of political（政治的）and social events. Flash mobbing takes advantage of the effect of communicating information on Websites and by email, and protesters(抗议者）can similarly use it to be involved in political events.Flash mob gatherings can sometimes surprise people. Such an activity might seem amusing and fantastic, but it also might frighten people who are not clear about what is taking place. Undoubtedly, flash mobs can serve as good political tools in any direction. They also have big economic potential（经济潜力）, such as using flash mobs to advertise a product.The flash mob is now becoming more and more popular. People use it to do many things.Flash mobs give people an opportunity to come together to create a memory.27．The word "foiled" in Paragraph 2 probably means "__________".A．praised B．prevented C．confused D．succeeded28．Why did Bill Wasik create the flash mob?A．To help people make friends.B．To advertise some products.C．To create some memories.D．To make fun of hipsters.29．What can we infer about the flash mob from the passage?A．It can be made use of in many fields just for fun.B．It usually breaks up quickly for not having enough time.C．If the place for the activity is decided, it can't be changed.D．It gives people the chance to do something unusual together.30．Which of the following might be the best title of the passage?A．Flash Mob: the Popular CultureB．Flash Mob: the Political PotentialC．Flash Mob: the Short-term MemoryD．Flash Mob: the Beginning of InformationSHANGHAI——Health researchers in Shanghai are calling for more protection for young children as the latest research shows about half of the children are suffering（受折磨）from secondhand smoke.About 45% of children suffer passive（被动的）smoking in families, 50% in public places, and almost 6% on public transportation, shows a research reported by the Shanghai Children's MedicalCenter (SCMC)on Tuesday."Not only adults but also children and newborn babies are at risk for the bad effects of passive smoking," said Tang Jingyan, a doctor. Research has shown that children who are living in a secondhand smoke situation will suffer from more colds, coughs and sore throats, and they are more likely to suffer from pneumonia(肺炎）and will have a higher risk of developing cancer. Doctors even suggested that children suffering passive smoking are more likely to have behavioral problems and may not develop mentally(智力上) as quickly as other children.Other research by the SCMC has found that more than 80% of child patients in the center live in a smoke-filled household, where one or both parents smoke. "Though doctors have stressed the harm of passive smoking over and over, it is still hard to reach a totally smoke-free home," said a doctor named Zhang Yiwen. Parents often want to smoke even though the have learned the harmful effects of secondhand smoke.China has 540 million people suffering from passive smoke,180 million of the younger than 15, the age of smokers is also getting lower, "earlier reports said. "There are more young smokers than before. You can see young people wearing a school uniform(校服）and carrying a schoolbag light a cigarette(香烟）on the street. Some of them are even girl students," said Jing Xingming, a professor. "Children like to copy adults, especially their parents. If parents often smoke at home, it is very likely children will develop a smoking habit which can cause a bad circle," Jin said.Reports from the Ministry of Health said China has about 350 million smokers, of whom 15 million are underage smokers. Also, around 40 million of the country's 130 million children aged between 13 and 18 had tried smoking, and 15 million had become addicted to(上瘾) smoking. 31．What is Paragraph 3 mainly about?A．The bad effects of passive smoking.B．The influences of adults to children.C．The bad living situations of children.D．The attitude towards children smoking.32．What can we learn from the passage?A．About 45% of children suffer passive smoking in public places.B．About 40 million children aged between 13 to 18 tried smoking.C．About 350 million children are heavy smokers in China.D．About 80% of the children in the SCMC smoke heavily.。
