historic Notre Dame Cathedral （巴黎圣母院） in Paris，France，on Monday，April 15，2019．People looked on with shock．One of the greatest architectural treasures of the Western world was burning． For around 800 years， the cathedrals top towered above Paris． The fire sent it falling to the ground． Then，it spread to one of the cathedral's landmark towers． Both towers were saved in the end． However， two﹣thirds of the cathedral's roof burned to the ground．"Everything is burning，nothing will remain from the flame，" said Notre Dame spokesman Andre Finot． It's been 800 years that the Cathedral watches over Paris， Pascal， a French historian， said "Happy and unfortunate events for centuries have been marked by the bells of Notre Dame．" He added that the flame marked "the destruction of invaluable heritage．" The cathedral is home to a huge number of artworks． It is also known as one of the world's most famous tourist attractions which receives almost 13 million visitors each year， more than the Eiffel Tower． It was built in the 12th and 13th centuries． The roof， which has been destroyed by the fire was made mostly of wood．According to the latest report， Chinese experts will join in the renovation （翻修） work of the Notre Dame Cathedral in Paris． China and France will cooperate on the theme and model of the renovation， and select Chinese experts for the cooperative renovation work in 2020．This cooperation shows the established relationship and highlights the trust between the two countries． The project will greatly expand the fields of Sino﹣French cooperation in terms of cultural

keys， smartphones and wallets． Would it be such a disaster if they left that last one behind？In the near future，it may not be．The physical wallet is disappearing．Think of why people carry a wallet in the first place． They have credit cards， cash a driver's license or other ID in it． Increasingly， however， most of these are being kept in digital form on a smartphone instead． At the airport， people can hand over their iphone or Android handset instead of agent scans a digital boardingpass． At many universities， students can use their smartphones as their student ID． In fact， lots of people are using their smartphones to pay without cash or credit cards． They do it with apps like Alipay and Apple Pay．However，the wallet is not going to disappear overnight．Habits like carrying a wallet are tough to break． For all the talks of a cashless society， physical currency is not going away anytime soon， Yet， 68 percent of smartphone owners say that smartphones will eventually replace wallets． Survey Monkey Audience surveyed 1， 218 of them last month， When asked， nearly half （45 percent） think wallets will be no longer useful in five years or less． Such an outcome remains far off for Seth Buchwalter． He uses his iPhone for digital payments． However， he also does not really want to get rid of his wallet entirely． He argues that people know what it is like to lose a phone or break it． They have had the battery （电池） run out． If their phone is their only wallet， what do people do when that happens？Concerns about security are one key reason people do not feel comfortable getting rid of their wallets． Fifty ﹣eight percent of Survey users agree． They want better phone security before they stop using their physical wallets．There are other arguments about ignoring the wallet． Forty﹣three percent of the smartphone owners in the survey want to see longer battery life before they stop using their physical wallets altogether．The early stages of making this happen are underway．No doubt about it，smartphones are replacing wallets． Leaving the house without a wallet might soon not be a big deal．（1）Which paragraph gives examples of things people already use their smartphones for？A． Paragraph 1．B． Paragraph 2．C． Paragraph 3．D． Paragraph 4．（2）Why do some people hesitate to rely completely on their smartphones？A． People may get into trouble if they break their smartphones．B． It is impossible to make everything into digital forms on a smartphone．C． Smartphones may not provide enough security nor have a long﹣life battery．D． Smartphones are updated quickly so all the personal information will be lost．（3）How did researchers discover people's ideas about using smartphone wallets？A． By giving questionnaires to smartphone owners．B． By lending people digital wallets to test out．C． By interviewing smartphone companies．D． By doing market surveys in big cities．（4）What's the purpose of writing the passage？A． To persuade people to use a physical wallet．B． To

Hawking was paralyzed （瘫痪）by disease and confined to a wheelchair． That did not slow down his brilliant mind， though． After living with illness for more than 50 years， Hawking died on Wednesday， March 14， 2018． He was 76 years old．"He was a great scientist and an extraordinary man whose work and legacy （遗赠） will live on for many years，" his children Lucy， Robert and Tim said． Hawking is one of the best﹣known theoretical physicists of his time． He wrote clearly about the unknown of space， time and black holes． This made his work reach more people．One of his books is called A Brief History of Time， which was a best seller around the world． The book also brought Hawking fame and made him one of the greatest scientists since Albert Einstein．When Hawking was 21 years old， his body was attacked by ALs， which affects nerve cells in the brain and causes the muscles to weaken．It also takes away a person's physical ability to do many things like walking． Most patients with also do not live long． Hawking stunned doctors by living with the illness for more than 50 years．In 1985， after getting a lung infection， Hawking needed to use a tube to breathe． After that， Hawking had to communicate through an electronic voice synthesizer that sounded like a robot．Still， Hawking continued his scientific work． Through his work， Hawking searched for the great goal of physics， which he called a "theory of everything．"In later years， though， he suggested a theory like this that might not exist． But one can't help asking the question： Why does the universe exist？ He said in 1991． Hawking said he was unsure how to give that question an answer or a meaning．His best﹣selling book and his almost total disability made Hawking famous． He even made TV appearances on The Simpsons and Star Trek． A movie made in 2014 called The Theory of Everything was based on Hawking's early life． Other scientists honored him with creating new excitement for science． And he showed that even the most severe disabilities could not stop people from living．（1）What does the underlined word "stunned" paragraph 4 mean？A． shocked．B． impressed．C． puzzled．D． satisfied．（2）What can we learn from the

It was built in the 12th and 13th centuries． The roof， which has been destroyed by the fire was made mostly of wood．According to the latest report， Chinese experts will join in the renovation （翻修） work of the Notre Dame Cathedral in Paris． China and France will cooperate on the theme and model of the renovation， and select Chinese experts for the cooperative renovation work in 2020．This

one behind？In the near future，it may not be．The physical wallet is disappearing．Think of why people carry a wallet in the first place． They have credit cards， cash a driver's license or other ID in it． Increasingly， however， most of these are being kept in digital form on a smartphone instead． At the airport， people can hand over their iphone or Android handset instead of agent scans a digital boarding pass． At many universities， students can use their smartphones as their student ID． In fact， lots of people are using their smartphones to pay without cash or credit cards． They do it with apps like Alipay and Apple Pay．However，the wallet is not going to disappear overnight．Habits like carrying a wallet are tough to break． For all the talks of a cashless society， physical currency is not going away anytime soon， Yet， 68 percent of smartphone owners say that smartphones will eventually replace wallets． Survey Monkey Audience surveyed 1， 218 of them last month， When asked， nearly half （45 percent） think wallets will be no longer useful in five years or less． Such an outcome remains far off for Seth Buchwalter． He uses his iPhone for digital payments． However， he also does not really want to get rid of his wallet entirely． He argues that people know what it is like to lose a phone or break it． They have had the battery （电池） run out． If their phone is their only wallet， what do people do when that happens？Concerns about security are one key reason people do not feel comfortable getting rid of their wallets． Fifty ﹣eight percent of Survey users agree． They want better phone security before they stop using their physical wallets．There are other arguments about ignoring the wallet． Forty﹣three percent of the smartphone owners in the survey want to see longer battery life before they stop using their physical wallets altogether．The early stages of making this happen are underway．No doubt about it，smartphones are replacing wallets． Leaving the house without a wallet might soon not be a big deal．（1）Which paragraph gives examples of things people already use their smartphones for？CA． Paragraph 1．B． Paragraph 2．C． Paragraph 3．D． Paragraph 4．（2）Why do some people hesitate to rely completely on their smartphones？CA． People may get into trouble if they break their smartphones．B． It is impossible to make everything into digital forms on a smartphone．。

calmly．I actually had no idea how we were going to figure it out．I immediately started to think of how we'd cut costs and who we shouldstart to get in touch with．That night，after David had fallen asleep，I cried myself to sleep，and frequently sobbed（抽泣）in the shower in the days that followed．I knew the loss of David's income would have great effect on us．He had worked for the same company for twenty﹣one years and was our main income．I work at home caring for Laura，and my income is uncertain．We have debts，and job hunting takes time．Still，I was more concerned about my husband's emotional state than our financial situation．David's sense of identity was tied to his job．He called his parents to tell them about losing his job，but didn't say a word to anyone else for weeks．He told me that he felt like "a failure"．It was tough for me to watch David struggle with unemployment．One night several weeks after he lost his job，David woke me just before midnight，sweating，pacing the bedroom

so long can hardly walk，let alone take part in any activities．A few people，however，take part in dangerous activities even though they are more than 100 years old﹣They keep going and going! There is a great grandmother who likes challenging herself although she is 101 years old this year．Mary Hardison believes that people should always be cheerful and more importantly，take on all kinds of adventures while they physically still can．So，instead of celebrating her 101st birthday with a boring party，she decided to go paragliding（滑翔跳伞）﹣an idea she got from her 75﹣year﹣old son who recently took it up as a hobby．So on her birthday，cheered on by her big family，shetied herself up together with expert instructor Kevin Hintze，and jumped down fearlessly from the sky near her home in Ogden，Utah．And，it was not just a simple jump either．According to Kevin Hintze，the grandmother encouraged him to turn around，as they made their way down．This is not the first time that Mary has done something "wild" and "crazy"．For her 90th birthday she rode all the adult rides at Disneyland．And，she is not done yet﹣For her 102nd birthday she hopes to go down the 3，000 feet Alpine Slide at Utah's

on which they were hatched（孵化）for the first time and swim long distances in search of tasty fish like anchovies andsardines．But they don't search directly for the fish themselves．When African penguins head out to sea，they look for areas with low surface temperatures and high chlorophyll（叶绿素）．Because those conditions signal the presence of algae（藻类）．And lots of algae means lots of plankton（浮游动物），which in turn means lots of their favorite fish．Well，that's what it used to mean．Climate change plus overfishing have made the penguin feeding grounds a mirage（海市蜃楼）．The habitat is indeed plankton﹣rich，but now it's fish﹣poor．Researchers call this an "ecological trap．" "It's a situation where you have a signal that previously pointed an animal towards good﹣quality habitat．That habitat has been changed，usually by human pressures．The signal stays，but the quality in the environment gets worse．"Richard Sherley，a zoologist at the University of Exeter and his team used satellite imaging to track the African penguins from eight sites along southern Africa．Historically，the birds benefited from tons of fish off the coasts of Angola，Namibia and western South Africa，but now they're going hungry．"I was really hoping we'd see them going east，andfinding areas which the fish had moved to but it ends up being quite a sad story for the penguins．" said Richard．The researchers calculate that by falling into this ecological trap，African penguin populations on South Africa's Western Cape have declined by around 80 percent．Some research groups are exploring the idea of moving them to a place where they can't get trapped，like the Eastern Cape．But Sherley thinks that a solution in the long run means making and carrying out rules to create more sustainable（可持续的）fishing industry，which needs public support．（1）How do penguins find their food？A．They discover fish with their keen sense．B．They swim long distances directly for fish．C．They make signals to each other when finding fish．D．They look for warmer and greener areas．（2）What is an ecological trap for the African penguins？A．A trap set to catch penguins．B．A good fish habitat with few fish．C．A habitat rich in plankton．D．A mirage on the sea．（3）What can be done to help the penguins in the long run？A．Move the penguins to other places．B．Create nature reserves for penguins．C．Keep a balanced fishing industry．D．Increase the population of penguins．（4）What is the main idea of the passage？A．African penguins are losing their habitats．B．African penguins are falling into ecological traps．C．A sustainable development is needed．D．African penguin populations have declined．第二节（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．选项中有两项为多余选项．15．（10分）How to Love Your ParentsEven if you think that your parents are mean at times，loving your parents is a normal and fulfilling part of life．You love them for the fact that they created you，raised you，and are in part，a source of who you are．Here are some ways to love your parents．（1）A gentle "good morning" and "I love you" will warm a coldest heart．Remember that they brought you into thisworld．Without your parents，we might still wander at an unknown corner in an unknown world．Respect them more and cherish these moments．You can use these moments to learn from them，preparing yourself for when you're off on your own．It's OK to get angry but angry actions don't

too hot．Understand that parents are human beings and make mistakes．（3）Keep company with them．Do things with your parents together like watching TV，or go somewhere with them．Listen to their old stories

way．Parents do not have a right to harm you．A．And remember forgiveness is the key．B．Parents will in turn express their love to you．C．Tell them you love them every morning．D．After this，share your

"The fight against cyberbullying is like a war, and in this war I am a fearless fighter," Sadat Rahman said during a ceremony on November 13 in The Hague, the Netherlands. He added, "If everybody keeps supporting me, then together we will win this battle against cyberbullying."Rahman developed a mobile phone application that provides education about online bullying and a way to report cases of it. He said he began his work on the project after hearing the story of a 15-year-old girl who took her own life as a result of cyberbullying. "I will not stop until we receive no more cases through the app," Rahman said at the ceremony.The award comes with a fund of over $118,000, which is invested by the Kids Rights Foundation. The group chooses projects to support causes that are closely linked to the winner's work.Past well-known winners of the prize include Pakistani human rights activist Malala Yousafzai and Swedish climate activist Greta Thunberg. And the students who organized the March for Our Lives event in 2018 after a deadly mass shooting at their school in the American state of Florida also won the prize.Yousafzai praised Rahman's work during the ceremony. She spoke through video conferencing. "All children have the right to be protected from violence no matter if it is physical or mental, offline or online," she said. "Cyberbullying damages that right."（1）What does Sadat Rahman devote himself to?A.Battling online violence.B.Helping poor children.C.Being a brave fighter.D.Removing school bullying.（2）What caused Sadat Rahman to start his project?A.People's lack of education.B.His own experience of being bullied.C.A girl's death from cyberbullying.D.The wide use of mobile phone apps.（3）What is Paragraph 5 mainly about?A.The March for Our Lives event.B.Human rights activists in the world.C.A horrible mass school shooting.D.Some previous winners of the prize.（4）What can we infer from Yousafzai's words?A.Rahman's efforts have paid off.B.Cyberbullying should be got rid of.C.All children have the right to fight against violence.D.Children are faced with physical and mental bullying.4.Americans have changed, at least when it comes to their apple preferences. The Red Delicious apple is likely to lose its title as the most popular apple this year, which it held for more than half a century. The U.S. Apple Association is projecting, that the Gala apple will usurp（夺取）the Red Delicious for the top spot.The group, which advocates on behalf of 7,500 apple growers and 400 companies in the apple business, predicted that the U. S. would grow 52.4 million Gala apples in 2018, up 5.9 percent from a year earlier. Red Delicious apple production is expected to fall 10.7 percent to 51.7 million.Consumers apparently like the Gala's "taste, texture（口感）and sweetness," the U.S. Apple Association said in a statement. "The rise in production of newer varieties of apples aimed at the fresh consumption domestic market has caused demand for the Red Delicious to decline." said Mark Seetin, the association's director of regulatory and industry affairs.The Granny Smith, Fuji and Honeycrisp apples are expected to rank third, fourth and fifth. The association predicted that within a year or two the Honeycrisp may pass the Granny Smith and Fuji, jumping into third place. The production of the apple rose 21.8 percent to 23.5 million this year. That puts it ahead of the Golden Delicious apple for the first time. The Honeycrisp was created by the University of Minnesota's apple breeding（培育）program only 21 years ago. It typically costs more than its competitors.Until the 1970s, Americans had only a few choices of apples. While the Golden Delicious offered a color contrast and the Granny Smith brought tartness（酸味）to the table, the Red Delicious was the star, heavily promoted by Washington state growers. Then wholesalers began looking for tastier varieties, finding them overseas in Japan, home to the Fuji, and New Zealand, which had the Braeburn and Gala.（1）How does the author prove Americans' preference for the Gala?A.By using statistics.B.By listing examples.C.By explaining causes.D.By presenting research findings.（2）What do we know about the Honeycrisp?A.It is sour in flavor.B.It is light in color.C.It is gaining popularity.D.It is losing its price advantage.（3）Which of the following comes from New Zealand?A.The Fuji.B.The Honeycrisp.C.The Braeburn.D.The Granny Smith.（4）What does the text mainly tell us?A.Why Americans eat apples from different countries.B.How different apples are becoming popular in America.C.How American farmers choose their apple growing types.D.Why the Red Delicious was Americans' favorite for 50 years.causal inferences rather than simply finding patterns. "At some point—you know, if you're intelligent—you realize maybe there's something else out there," he says.【长难句分析】1.
