For the blanks with a given word, fill in each blank with the proper form of the given word ;for the other blanks, use one word that best fits each blank.My Campus LifeI spent my freshman year at Tulane University culture-shocked and out-of-place, desperate to leave. It wasn’t known to me anyone else who was on scholarship,I (21 )_______(surprise) by the racism and sexism on campus.(22)_______(do) poorly my first year of college was terrible; 1 felt stupid and unworthy. This feeling was terrible because I had attended a famous math and science public high school in New York (23) grades meant everything. But changing colleges — (24)_______ the move was forced and unplanned —set the stage for me to find my passion and, eventually, a career.When I picked up the pieces after Tulane and enrolled in a state college in Albany, New York , I was still raw from my freshman year experience. I drank a lot, did n’t know ( 25 )_______ classes to take and generally felt lost,It wasn’t (26 ) _______ I took my first women’s studies class — an introductory feminist course —that I found my footing.Suddenly I could see the ways that everything from pop culture and politics devalued women, and I understood more fully (27 )_______ injustices weren’t random but systemic. Most importantly, however, I realized that there was nothing wrong with me. Nothing is wrong with being loud or opinionated. These were just characteristics not valued in women.Once the personal validation took hold, the broader political implications followed. I became active in campus causes,joined a women’s studies (28) _______(teach) collective and started to get good grades in my classes ------and not just the feminist ones. Finding genuine enthusiasm for a topic — one that related so directly (29)_______ the world around me —gave me a drive that I (30) _______ (not experience) before. And it has not stopped since.4Section BDirections:Fill in each blank with a proper word chosen from the box. Each word can be used only once. Note that there is one word more than you need.A. resolvedB. specificallyC. councilD. fashionablyE. similarF. differenceG. rainyH. advertiseI. case j. identify K. approachedThe citizens who testified at city hall last week were far younger and, arguably, far morepersuasive than those who usually come before the D. C. Council.The four of them, officers of the student 31__________at Alice Deal Middle School in Northwest, had 32 this year to take on something bigger than parties, spirit days and other typical student government fare.They wanted to effect change, leave a legacy.Very 33_________,they wanted to give their classmates a covered Metro bus shelter on Nebraska Avenue near Deal, a place where students could get out of the wind and driving rain while waiting for a ride home each afternoon.“When we were elected,we said, 4 We want to make some change, , said Ben Kom, an eighth-grader and the council’s president. “We didn’t want to take on something too big,but something big enough to make a 34_________. ”Speaking before the D, C,Council’s Committee on Transportation and the Environment at the John A. Wilson Building on Thursday, Ben told of a cold and 35_________fail afternoon that found him waiting more than an hour and a half for his M4 bus. Unlike the region’s suburban school systems, the District’s public schools do not have their own fleet of buses, and most students take public transportation to and from school. “By the time I got home,it was dark,and I was cold and wet,’’said Ben •UI know my fellow officers here today and the rest of the Deal student body have faced 36 situations. That is why we are here. ’’5Ben and his colleagues came up with the idea for the bus shelter and 37_________the D. C, Council with the guidance of their principal, James Albright. The students met with Andrew Newman, a staffer for council member and transportation committee chairman Mary M. Cheh ( D- Ward 3 ) , who suggested that they present their 38 at a public roundtable downtown.With students’ efforts,the District struck a deal with Clear Channel Communications in 2005 that calls for Clear Channel to build up to 788 bus shelters in return for the right to 39_________ on them. So far, they’v e built 745, leaving room for the Deal shelter. “It’s a win-win for all parties at no cost to D. C. taxpayers.This was a lesson in not getting everything you ask for, but the students were brave. They had also learned another lesson, how to 40_________a problem, find a solution and take action.Reading ComprehensionSection ADirections :For each blank in the following passage there are four words or phrases marked A, B, C and D, Fill in each blank with the word or phrase that best fits the context.In Venice, it is not uncommon to see tourists carry suitcases through waist-high water, or sit at tables in Piazza San Marco in their swimsuits. Pictures of Venice in the most dramatic flooding are really 41_________.We are used to thinking of Venice as a city in 42_________,a glorious relic (古迹)of human creativity that is about to 43 any day and suddenly the end looks closer. However, as climate change makes extreme weather more 44_________, Venice looks less like a 45_________〇f the sea and more like an old survivor that can teach the rest of the world how to live with water.People barely notice how 46 the art treasures of Venice are kept on the upper floors of palaces and museums, even on a dry summer day. It is also 47_________to worry about all the art in churches because no other city has such a sharp 48_________of protecting itself from water.In their art, the people of Venice are as happy on water as on 49_________. Vittore Carpaccio s painting Hunting on the Lagoon shows young Venetians standing6easily 50_________ in low-sided boats to shoot arrows at water birds. In a Gentile Bellini's painting, priest(牧师)Swim in the canal searching for a lost relic. Titian portrays(描绘)a woman bathing in open water in his painting. Hunting and fishing, swimming and bathing, Venetians always know how to ——51_________water.The palaces built in Venice are also good examples of the prevention of 52_________.Each has its living spaces on upper floors, often with a courtyard on the ground floor that 53_________ water instantly.The danger of Venice is real and this treasury of civilization does need protecting.

A. care for B. hold up C. live with D. sail onSection B7Directions:Read the following three passages. Each passage is followed by several questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage you have just read.(A)In an early survey conducted in 1888, a billion and a half people inhabited the earth. Now, the population exceeds seven billion. This means that the world must accommodate a new population roughly equal to that of the United States and Canada every three years] Even though the rate of growth has begun to slow down, most experts believe the population size will still pass eight billion soon.If we examine the amount of land available for this ever-increasing population, we begin to see the problem. K everyone on the planet had an equal share of land, we would each have about 50,000 square metres. This figure seems to be quite encouraging until we examine the type of land we would have. Not all land is useful to humans as it cannot produce food. We can cut out about one fifth of it because it is permanently covered by snow and ice* Then we can cut out another one fifth because it is desert. Another fifth is too mountainous or is too great a height above sea-level. A tenth doesn’t have enough soil for crops to grow —it is bare rock. Now the position begins to look rather mom bleak (荒凉)!Obviously, with so little land to support us, we should be taking great care not to reduce it further. But are we? We are consuming its “ capital” , which means its nonrenewable fossil fuels and other mineral deposits that took millions of years to form but which are now being destroyed in decades. We are also doing the same with other vital resources not usually thought of as being nonrenewable such as fertile soils, groundwater and the millions of other species that share earth with us.The birth of a baby in, for example, Hong Kong, imposes more than a hundred times the amount of stress on the world's resources as a baby in India. Most people in India do not grow up to own cars or air-conditioners. Nor do they eat the huge amount of meat and fish that the Hong Kong child does. Their life-styles do not require vast quantities of minerals and energy. Also, they are aware of the requirements of the land around them and try to put something back into nature to replace what they take out.56. Why does the author mention the example of America and Canada?8A. To emphasize that world population has to be reduced.B. To give a brief history of the population growth,C. To stress how quickly the world population is rising.D. To point out what a large population they have.57. According to the author, how much per person of the earths surface can be used to produce food?A, 15 ,000 square metres. B. 25,000 square metres.C. 30,000 square metres.D. 40,000 square metres.58. Which of the following belongs lo vital resources?A. Fossil fuels.B. Mineral deposits,C. Chemical fertilizer.D. Groundwater.59. When can learn from the passage that ___________________.A. different lifestyles require similar quantities of resourcesB. a Hong Kong baby consumes more resources than an Indian babyC. tropical forest are being better used for pasturelandD. nature is powerful enough to destroy an aggressive manParcel Post RatesZones960. What is the cost of mailing a 10-pound package a distance of 286 miles ?A. 93 centsB. $ 1.20C. $1.35D. $1.5561. The exception noted at the bottom of the table means _______________________A. large packages weighing less than 10 pounds cost the same as a 10- pound packageB. large packages weighing more than 10 pounds cost more than small packages weighing more than 10 poundsC. large packages measuring over 100 inches cannot be mailed by parcel costD. large packages weighing 10 pounds cost less to mail than small packages weighing10 pounds62. Which of the following best summarizes all the information on the table ?A. The table indicates that heavy packages cost more to mail than light-weight packages10B. The table shows five zones that cover the distance from one mils to 600 milesC. The cost of mailing a package is dependent on the weight of the package and the distance of it being mailedD. Rates for local mailing are the lowestCDr. Raint Mishor, of Georgetown University Hospital says many people believe it’s possible to become immune to colds. Unfortunately , that’s not the case . “ There are about 200 different viruses that cause the common cold and people think that once you get infected one time you develop immunity for the rest of your life . This is wrong . ‘’She said .There are many other common beliefs about colds that medical science doesn’t support. How many of us believe the main cause of the common cold is exposure to cold temperatures? Even some studies have shown that people get sick more frequently during the winter .But Dr. Mishori says it is not because of cold weather. “ It’s because people tend to congregate and be together and the way the common cold virus is transmitted from one person to another is through handshake , through sneezing , or through coughing on one another.While there is no actual cure for the common cold , Dr. Mishori says there are still a few things you can do to help reduce its duration and intensity . Though the medical community says Vitamin C does not help prevent colds , there is definitely some proof that it helps keep them from being as bad. “ So if you catch a cold and on day once you start taking about two grams of Vitamin C a day there is evidence that it might shorten the number of days that you will be suffering with these symptoms.” Dr . Mishori stated.In addition , medical science sys honey and chicken soup are effective against colds. Especially honey .” There is increased evidence that it helps shorten the duration do the common cold sometimes even by two to three days particularly in11children,” Dr. Mishori said. “ Chicken soup has anti-inflammatory properties so it helps reduce the duration of the cold but it also helps clear the mucus.There’s also a common belief that you should “ feed a cold ant starve a fever.” Dr. Mishori says “ not necessary “. ‘ If you do have a cold and you don’t feel like eating anything it’s not g oing to hurt you bur you have to drink a lot and you can drink water or you can drink tea anything that gets fluids into your body , “ she said , “ That’s very important.”So---------if drinking fluids is a good idea------What about milk ? “ I will never give milk to a a child who has got bad phlegm. My son used to have that and he would throw up . “ Nadine Audrewy , the Hemmens kids’ grandmother , believes it’s not a good idea to give milk to a child who has a cold .Well ,says Dr. Mishori ,maybe and maybe not .” Dairy products do not cause increased secretions but they can thicken the secretions,” she explained. ‘So it’s possible that discomfort is somewhat more enhanced when you drink milk , but obviously if you are a baby and its’s all you drink then you should not stop giving babies milk.There are many other myths about colds that do not pass science muster . Doctors say the best advice is to continue using whatever works best for you . Even if it doesn’t make the cold better , it won’t make it worse ei ther ------while you wait for the cold to just run its natural course.63. According to the common belief “feed a cold and starve a fever”,people should______________when catching cold.A. drink a lot to get fluids into their bodyB. have as much water and tea as possibleC. eat a lot even if they don9t feel like eatingD. starve themselves to a certain extent to kill the virus64. Medical experts find that people catch cold because_____________________A. they fail to develop immunityB. they stay in cold weather12C. they transmit the virus themselvesD. they like to gather together65. In the last paragraph, the sentence wThere are many other myths about colds that do notpass scientific muster^ probably means that many other myths regarding colds________________________________A. are not accepted as scientificB. are not rational in a scientific senseC. do not reach the scientific standardD. do not draw scientific conclusions66. What is the passage mainly about?A. Ways to reduce duration and intensity of cold.B. Scientific discoveries on the basis of myths.C. Effects of different food on overcoming cold.D. The old myths and new facts concerning cold.Section CDirections:Read the following passage. Fill in each blank with a proper sentence given in the box. Each sentence can be used only once. Note that there are two more sentences than you need.A. he is over-workingB, his schedule is fullC. it just gets too much at the end of the dayD, it offers generous incomeE, his practice has increasedF. after two years of searching the position remains unfilledGPS(全科医生)surgery in town of Tokoroa on the North Island has been looking for a junior doctor for two years with no takers so far although_________67__________. A rural GP in New Zealand is offering a $400,000 annual income to try and attract a medic to share his work burden —but1368____________________________.Dr. Alan Kenny co-owns a medical practice in the Waikato town of Tokoroa on the North Island —population 13,600. The GP —originally mTzxhec/ (招募)from the UK —told The New Zealand Herald his practice has unexploded" , but 69_____________________and has repeatedly had to cancel holidays because they have difficulty in finding a replacement."I can offer them a really, really amazing income;it's unbelievable. My practice has exploded in the last year and the more patients you list, the more money you get. But ________70____ ,”Dr. Kenny said. Rural doctors are really hard to find in New Zealand.IV. Summary WritingDirections :Read the following passage. Summarize in no more than 60 words the main idea and the main point(s) of the passage. Use your own words as far as possible.Textbooks. Lecture hails. Over the next decade, technology may sweep away some of the most basic aspects of a university education and lead in a flood of innovations and changes. Look for online classes that let students learn at their own pace, drawing on materials from schools across the country —not just a single professor and one textbook.All those changes probably won’t make a university education cheaper —alas ——but they will likely change our perceptions about how we value it. Traditionally, schools have been judged by how many prospective students they turn away,not by how many competent graduates they put out.“Those are status rankings,driven by exclusivity and preservation of an old model, says Michael Crow, the president of Arizona State University. But as new technologies come into the classroom, it will be easier to measure what students actually learn. That will 4<make universities more accountable for what they produce, “ Dr. Crow says.In the near future, instead of classrooms, professors will run their courses over digital platforms capable of collecting data on each students progress. These platforms were initially developed for massive open online courses, or MOOCs. However,14universities are now folding these platforms back into their traditional classes because they make it easier to share content, host discussions and keep track of student work.A professor might still “teach” class, but most of the interaction will happen online. If professors and students do meet in a physical classroom, it will be to review material, work through problems or work on discussion topics. Scenes like John Houseman lecturing to a classroom full of students will be a thing of the past.These platforms are constantly improving. Soon, they will be able to monitor which students are spending 15 minutes on a maths problem and which ones work hard for an hour. This can raise red flags for professors (and their teaching assistants) about who might need extra help. As Rovy Brannon, associate dean at the University of Wisconsin-Extension, says, “The course platform will get to know you far better than your professor does today.V.

2020年北京市中考英语冲刺模拟试卷(名师精选试卷,值得下载练习)一、阅读理解(本大题共15小题,共30.0分)AI was in the seventh grade,and we had moved to New Jersey in November.By then,everyone already had had their own friends,and no one wanted to talk to a new girl.To make things worse,they put me in "Section L".I found out later that everyone called Section L "Loserville".It was sort of an open secret that it was the section for troublemakers andnot-so-smart kids.When I found out,I wanted to scream.I had always been a good student and had amazing friends,and now everyone thought I was a loser!I did text my friends in Illinois almost every night,especially my best friend,Ana.At first my friends wanted to hear all about it.But then some stopped texting back once I said something about how miserable I was.One night when I was texting with Ana,I complained about another friend who had just done that.Ana's texts came really fast for the next few minutes and they surprised me.She said that she was tired of hearing about how bad everything was in New Jersey,too.She said she did not want to hurt my feelings but that I needed to stop feeling so sorry for myself all the time,I had to try to make things better.The next day,I thought a lot about what Ana had said.She was right!I wish I could say that everything changed overnight after that,but it didn't.I was still stuck in "Loserville",and some people were still mean to me,even though I tried to just stay out of their way.But what did change was me-I stopped feeling so sorry for myself and did something about making friends.I signed up to make sets for the school play.I met a lot of new people there,and suddenly I had friends to say hi to in the halls!I still miss Illinois sometimes,but life in New Jersey isn't so hard anymore.Even though I couldn't change my situation,I could change my attitude-and that made all the difference.1."Loserville" is a section for ______ .A. failuresB. good studentsC. class secretsD. newcomers2.The writer complained all the time in the new environment because ______ .A. Ana didn't text back to herB. her friends hurt her feelingsC. she was unfairly treatedD. she was a good student3.What made a difference in changing the situation?______A. She went back to Illinois.B. She ended friendship with Ana.C. She fought back with her classmates.D. She began to make friends with others.4.The best title for the passage can be ______ .A. Lasting FriendshipB. An Incidence at SchoolC. Say Goodbye to "Loserville"D. Unhappiness in "Loserville"BThese days everyone is worried about the size of their carbon footprint.In order to reduce global warming,we need to make our carbon footprints smaller.But how much CO are we responsible for?A new book by Mike Berners-Lee (a leading expert in carbon foot-printing)might be able to help.The Carbon Foot print of Everything looks at the different things we do and buy,and calculates the amount of CO2 they produce,including the ingredients,the electricity,the equipment,the transport and the packaging.And it's frightening how much carbon dioxide everything produces.But all of this can help us decide which beer to drink.From Berners-Lee's calculations,it's clear that a pint (568 ml)of locally-brewed (酿制的)beer has a smaller carbon footprint than a bottle of imported beer.This is because the imported beer has been transported from far away,and it uses more packaging.The local beer only produces 300 g of CO2-but the imported beer produces 900 g! So,one pint of local beer is better for the environment than three cans of cheap foreign beer from the supermarket.Berners-Lee has even calculated the carbon footprint of cycling to work.Nothing is more environmentally - friendly than riding a bike,surely?Well,it depends on what you've had to eat before.To ride a bike we need energy and for energy we need food.So,if we eat a banana and then ride a kilometer and a half,our footprint is 65 g of CO2.However,if we eat bacon before the bike ride,it's 200g.In fact,bananas are good in general because they don't need packaging.They can be transported by boat and they grow in natural sunlight.So,does this mean that cycling is bad for the environment?Absolutely not.If you cycle,you don t use your car;and the fewer cars on the road,the fewer traffic jams.And cars in traffic jams produce three times more CO2 than cars travelling at speed.Cycling also makes you healthy and less likely to go to a hospital.And hospitals have very big carbon footprints! So,maybe it's time for us all to start making some changes.Pass me a banana and a pint of local beer,please.5.Which of the followings produces the smallest carbon footprints?______A. A pint of local beer.B. A bottle of imported beer.C. A banana before a 1.5 km bike ride.D. Bacon before a 1.5 km bike ride.6.According to the article,the author suggests choosing the local food because it is______ .A. more tastyB. easier to buyC. better packagedD. more energy-saving7.The purpose of writing this article is to ______ .A. promote a new bookB. advertise the imported beerC. instruct how to measure the carbon footprintD. encourage people to reduce the production of CO2CMost adults firmly believe that as kids reach their teens,they start to take crazy risks that get them in trouble.Do teenagers simply love taking all risks much more than adults?A recent study suggests otherwise.Scientists designed a simple experiment involving 33 teenagers and three other age groups.In the experiment,the researchers tried to distinguish between two very different kinds ofrisk-taking.The first they called a willingness to take known risks (when the probability ofwinning is clear)and the second they called a willingness to take unknown risks (when the possibility of success is uncertain).The study offered participants the opportunity to play two kinds of games.They had the chance to win money,with one game offering a known risk and the other offering an unknownrisk.On each round of the game,each participant had to choose between taking a sure﹩5 andknown or unknown risks of winning a lot more.If on one particular round they had picked the﹩5 for sure choice,then they got﹩5.But if on that round they had chosen to take a risk,the rulesof the game will determine whether or not they had won.If they did win,they went home withbetween﹩8 and ﹩125.And,of course,if they lost,they went home with nothing.What the scientists found was really quite surprising.It turned out that the average teenager was very hesitant when risks were known-more careful than college students or parents-aged adults,and about as careful as grandparent-aged adults.This means that when the risks were known,teenagers were not risky in their behavior at all.Only when the risks were unclear did teenagers choose them more often than other groups.Under those kinds of conditions,they were much more willing to take a risk than any other group.So,what does all of this mean?The research suggests that adults should probably focus more energy on trying to educate teenagers about risks than limiting them.Teenagers who understand the risks associated with a decision are more likely to be careful in their behavior.8.This experiment was carried out by ______A. dividing the teens into three groupsB. comparing the reactions to different risksC. giving equal amount of awards to the participantsD. observing the emotional changes of the teenager9.When facing known risks,teenagers tended to be ______ .A. ambitsB. cautiousC. anxiousD. curious10.Which group in the study were more likely to take unknown risks?______A. Teenagers.B. College students.C. Parent-aged adults.D. Grandparent-aged adults.11.According to the study,parents should focus on ______ .A. guaranteeing children to be carefulB. setting age limits on dangerous activitiesC. respecting teens to make their own choicesD. guiding teens to learn more about the effect of risksDShark attacks not only disturb beach activities,but can affect associated tourist industries.Shark nets are a common solution to preventing shark attacks on beaches,but they cause dangers to sea ecosystems.Seeking a cost-effective way to monitor beach safety over large areas,we have developed a system called Shark Spotter.It combines artificial intelligence (AI),computing power,and drone (无人机)technology to identify and warn lifesavers to sharks near swimmers.The project is a cooperation between the University of Technology Sydney and The Ripper Group,which is pioneering the use of drones-called "Westpac Little Ripper Lifesavers"-in the search and rescue movement in Australia.SharkSpotter can detect sharks and other potential threats using real-time aerial imagery.Thesystem analyses video from a camera attached to a drone to monitor beaches for sharks,send warnings,and conduct rescues.Developed with techniques known as "deep learning",the Shark Spotter system receives imagery from the drone camera and attempts to identify all objects in the scene.Once certain objects are detected,they are put into one of 16 categories:shark,whale,dolphin,rays,different types of boats,surfers,and swimmers.If a shark is detected,Shark Spotter provides both a visual sign on the computer screen and an audible warning to the operator.The operator confirms the warning and sends text messages from the Shark Spotter system to the Surf Life Savers for further action.In an emergency,the drone is equipped with a lifesaving flotation pod (漂浮仓)together with an electronic shark repellent (驱逐装置)that can be dropped into the water in cases where swimmers are in severe trouble,trapped in a rip,or if there are sharks close by.In January 2018,the Westpac Little Ripper Lifesavers was used to rescue two young swimmers caught in a rip at Lennox Head,NSW.The drone flew down the beach some 800 meters from the lifeguard station,and a lifesaving flotation pod was dropped from the drone.The complete rescue operation took 70 seconds.We believe Shark Spotter is a win-win for both marine life and beachgoers.This unique technology combines dynamic video image processing AI and advanced drone technology to creatively deal with the global challenge of ensuring safe beaches,protecting environments,and promoting tourism.12. A Shark Spotter is ______ .A. a solution to monitor sharksB. an equipment to identify lifesaversC. a technology to prevent shark attacksD. a project to pioneer the use of drones13.When a shark is spotted near a swimmer,the system will ______ .A. take timely actionB. analyze the visual dataC. classify the identified objectsD. turn on "deep learning" mode14.The example in the 5th paragraph shows us that the system is ______ .A. efficient in saving livesB. effective in detecting sharksC. smart in driving sharks awayD. practical over the whole sea area15.What is the author's attitude towards the future of SharkSpotter?______A. Doubtful.B. Optimistic.C. Negative.D. Objective.二、阅读七选五(本大题共5小题,共10.0分)Nowadays,WeChat is about expressing our opinions and Weibo is about collecting things we like.Both of them develop our self-focus.Self-focus simply means you pay attention to how you feel,think and behave.Self-focus isn't naturally a bad thing.Particularly in individualistic (个人主义的)cultures,we value our ability to be self-aware.(1) Unfortunately,when you are regularly focusing on yourself,you'll notice any dissatisfaction,anxiety,or general discomfort you might not have otherwise.(2) As a result,self-focus contributes to a wide range of mental health problems like anxiety.But quitting technology is no longer a practical solution.(3) For example,don't post about things you did,which focuses your attention on yourself.Instead,you could share advice and words of support from your smart phone.As a result,you'll feel better,and so will the people around you.Do you like to take selfies (自拍)?It's easy to take a quick picture of yourself to show what you re doing,or how you re feeling.But paying attention to ourselves often makes us feel worse.(4) Do your best to highlight (突出)the wonderful things that make them special.In this way,you won't focus so much on your bad hair day,and you will get along better with your friends.(5) But if we can learn to move the focus off ourselves and onto doing good for others,technology can help us grow.Anyway,the point is that it's up to you to handle the ability of your self-focus.A.Too much self-focus means few friends.B.Self-focus is generally helpful in daily life.C.Therefore,try taking pictures of your friends.D.In fact,we can use technology in ways that are less self-focused.E.By bringing your attention to those negative emotions,you strengthen them.F.We want to know who we are and why we do what we do to uncover possible ways to improve our lives.G.Technology-when used in certain ways is having negative effects on our mental health and well-being.16.

Martin Scorsese wrote the stories for the movie himself.BEvery year, millions of peop le make the same New Year’s resolution(决心): to lose weight. But there’s a problem that requires as much resolution to change as weight: the societal prejudice surrounding weight and obesity.For decades, researchers have documented negative attitudes toward overweight people - a form of prejudice known as “weight bias (偏见).” People with obesity are commonly viewed as lazy, unintelligent, unattractive, and lacking willpower and self-control. Weight –based discrimination is found in educational, employment and health care settings, yet minimal legal protection exists for those who are targeted. In addition to experiencing weight bias from others, people with obesity tend to accept weight-biased beliefs, leading to lower self-worth.Some people argue that bitter messages about weight are necessary to motivate those with obesity to take responsibility for their health and lose weight. After all, critics say, it’s their own fault that they are “fat,” and, if they really wanted to, they could control their weight. In this view, promoting body acceptance would only weaken behavior change and encourage obesity.The problem with this argument is that it flies in the face of hundreds of scientific studies showing the negative health effects associated with experiencing and accepting weight-biased beliefs. The psychological effect of being undervalued due to one’s weight may not seem surprising: increased risk for depression, anxiety, and even self-harming thoughts and attempts in youth.Also worth noting are the effects of weight bias on weight gain and obesity-related health. Studies show that weight bias is stressful, and when people are under stress, they tend to eat more. Further, when people worry about being judged due to their weight, they avoid fitness and health care setting.In the coming year, whether or not weight loss is a goal, we can all make efforts to get rid of weight bias and be a little kinder to ourselves and others.4. What do we know about obese people?A. They are fond of making resolutions.B. They are lacking in self-control.C. They care little about others’ opinions.D. They tend to undervalue themselves.5. Why do some people support bitter messages about weight?A. They can encourage obese people to lose weight.B. They can improve self-worth in obese people.C. They can promote body acceptance.D. They can relieve depression.6. What does the underlined part “flies in the face of” in Paragraph 4 mean?A. Confirms.B. Copies.C. Splits up.D. Goes against.7. What can be the best title for the text?A. A healthy diet: good for your mind and bodyB. New Year’s resolution: lose weight bias instead of weightC. Control your weight by accepting the bitter messages readilyD. Eat your own way regardless of other s’ thoughtsCEnvironmental experts warn that our planet is drowning in plastic.The world’s cities produce 2 billion tons of trash every year. By the year 2050 that number is expected to rise to 3 billion tons. The World Bank estimates that the largest amount of trash today, about 44 percent, is plastic. But we often have to buy packaged goods. And often that packaging is made of plastic.Now, that may be changing. A new environmentally-friendly shopping model was recently launched at the World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland. This shopping model, called Loop, aims to replace throwaway containers with reusable ones.Loop is the idea of Terra Cycle, an American-based recycling company. Its chief, Tom Szaky. told the Associated Press (AP) that “removing plastics from the ocean is not enough.” He said the point is to get away from single-use packages. Szaky said that Loop is the future of shopping. But it comes from an idea of the past.He compared it to the “milkman model” of the 1950s in the United State s. Back then, someone brought milk to your doorstep in glass bottles and then left with empty bottles. These could be cleaned and used again. The result is zero-waste.Jennifer Morgan from the environmental non-profit organization Greenpeace also joined in the discussion about Loop at Davos. She said that “Greenpeace welcomes the aim of the Loop Alliance to move away from throwaway culture and disposability.” But Morgan questioned whether companies worldwide are ready to change their business models.Loop is set to launch later this year in three eastern U.S. states, and also in Paris, France and some of the surrounding area. Then Loop plans to expand to the U.S. West Coast, Toronto, Canada and Britain by the end of this year or 2020.8. What does the author intend to do in Paragraph 2?A. Provide background information.B. Advocate zero-waste lifestyle.C. Explain the reason for trash.D. Introduce a new topic.9. Where does the idea “Loop” come from?A. The World Economic Forum.B. Demand of some companies.C. Zero-waste model.D. The milkman model.10. Which countries is Loop expected to expand to by 2020?A. United States and Switzerland.B. Switzerland and Britain.C Canada and Britain. D. France and Canada.11. What is the text mainly about?A. A new shopping model.B. The development of future city.C. The world’s environmental issue.D. The concerns of future shopping.DFrom talking robots and video phones, technology has become so advanced that the previously impossible seems to occur on a daily basis. And yet—we still have no cure for the common cold.Why can’t we stop the common cold? According to Peter Barlow, a scientist at Edinburgh Napier University, the main challenge lies in the many different types of cold viruses that are produced by the rhinoviruses (鼻病毒). There are at least 160 types. They change so easily that they quickly become resistant to drugs. In other words, a single cure isn’t lik ely to work on every type of cold.However, researchers from Stanford University have found a possible answer. They discovered a protein that the viruses need. Without it, they can't spread inside your body.To identify the gene which produces the specific protein needed by the viruses, researchers used a gene-editing technique to test all genes one by one for thousands of cells. These modified (改变的) cells were then exposed to a range of rhinoviruses which cause the common cold.All the viruses were unable to copy inside cells without a gene that produces a specific protein, called methyltransferase (甲基转移酶) SETD3.Then, they tested genetically modified mice, which were completely unable to produce the protein. The mice were able to live healthy, normal lives without the protein.“Lacking that gene protected the mice completely from the common cold,”associate professor Jan Carette, from Stanford, told the BBC.“These mice would always die, but they survived and we saw a very strong protection.”Carette said the plan is to find a drug which can keep back the protein for a limited time, rather than produce genetically modified humans.“We have identified a fantastic target that all rhinoviruses require and depend on. Take that away and the virus really has no c hance,” said Carette.12. Why does the author mention talking robots and video phones in the first paragraph?A. To stress the importance of technology.B. To encourage readers to share their ideas.C. To introduce the topic of the text.D. To recognize the progress of science.13. What can we learn about the protein needed by the viruses?A. It helps the viruses copy inside our bodies.B. It stops the viruses from changing easily.C. It protects the viruses against drugs.D. It forces the viruses to spread fast.14. What does Jan Carette intend to do?A. To identify a fantastic target.B. To slow copying speed of some genes.C. To produce genetically modified humans.D. To find a drug to temporarily block the protein.15. What is the best title for the text?A. A New Experiment on Viruses.B. New Defense Found for Viruses.C. A Chemical Curing Modified Viruses.D. Gene-editing Technology to Control Viruses.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。

作文范文:College Students’Doing Part-time JobsRecently,when it comes to college students’doing part-time jobs,people’s opinions vary greatly from person to person.Many a person supports college students’doing part-time job,believing that doing part-time jobs can ease their financial stress.Some people,however,have totally opposite opinions,arguing that doing part-time jobs may influence their study.As far as I am concerned,I am not in favor of college students’doing part-time job.Firstly,doing part-time jobs costs students a lot of time,which is not beneficial to their study.Secondly,so little is the money of doing part-time jobs that easing financial burden may be not possible.Thirdly,it is colorful college life and their study that they should pay attention to,not part-time jobs.All in all,I don’t support collegestudents’doing part-time job.College Students Doing Part-time JobIn recent years,more and more college students begin to take part-time jobs in their spare time and such a phenomenon has caused numerous heated debates among the people around us.Taking part-time jobs has advantages as well as disadvantages.As a social activity,a part-time job certainly offers college students substantial practice,which is crucial to them after they graduate.Besides,income from part-time jobs can solve their financial problems,especially for those who come from poor-stricken areas.However,since part-time jobs take much of the students’time,those who take them waste a great deal of time.Therefore,their academic performance is tremendously affected.From my standpoint,so long as college students put their courses first and concentrate on their studies while at school,certain amount of time spent on part-time jobs is not incorrect.I think the most important for them to do is to balance the two aspects well and give priority to study if the two contradict each other.详细答案:1.D根据第一段第二句中with the aid of electricity,可知答案为D。
2.C根据第二段第一句话“Aluminum is lightweight,rustproof and easily shaped into different forms.”。
3.D A、B、C三个选项都能直接在文章的第三段中找到,只有D选项没有在文中找到。
4.B最后一段第一句话中的非限制性定语从句是该题的题干。
答案很显然应该是该非限制性定语从句所修饰的中心词:bauxite(铝土矿)。
5.A本文介绍了铝的特点、性质以及用途,正确答案为A。
6.D第二段第三句话“In l924,President Calvin Coolidge recommended national observance of the occasion to establish more intimate relations between fathers and their children”(1924年,卡尔文·柯立芝总统建议在全国范围内纪念这一时刻,以便在父亲和子女之间建立更亲密的关系)。
observance(法律、习俗等的)遵守,奉行。
因此正确答案为D,是在1924年才开始全国性的流行。
7.A文章第一段倒数第二句话“Mrs.John Bruce Dodd,in the state of Washington proposed asimilar day to honor the head of the family-the father.”,给出了答案。
8.C第二段最后一句可知“The red or white rose is recognized as the official Father's Day flower.”答案为rose。
9.B用排除法得出答案为B。
10.D根据文章第四段第三句中的一个状语从句“Though at first the British public was slow to accept this rather artificial day.(尽管一开始英国公众对这个人造的纪念日迟迟不接受。
)”即可得出正确答案为D(他们认为这太人为了,花了很长时间才接受)。
11.A。
第一节主要是讨论网络求职给求职者带来了更长的等待回复的时间。
Internet-addicted job seekers may be partly the cause of the fact that it is taking the unemployed23%longer to find a new position than it took......(失业者找新工作的时间比过去的时间长23%,沉迷于网络的求职者可能是的部分原因)12.D。
本题可采用排除法。
Challenger教授陈述了网络求职成功率的低下,认为网络不应该仅仅用来投电子简历,建议求职者与招聘方面对面。
Challenger believes that it should be considered secondary to the traditional technique of meeting would-be employers in person.(Challenger认为,与亲自会见潜在雇主的方式相比,这种方式是次要的)13.D。
由第二节可知,很多不符合岗位要求的简历增加了求职者等待回复的时间。
14.B。
因为不相关简历的增加,所以降低求职者简历到达招聘人面前几率的“过滤软件”也出现了。
“One result of this has been the increased use of screening software by employers.This will make it even more difficult for job seekers to get their resumes in front of the hiring executive for an interview.其结果之一是雇主越来越多地使用筛选软件。
这将使求职者更难在招聘主管面前拿到简历进行面试。
”15.B。
由倒数第二节可知,网络确实是职场的一场革命,给求职者带来了更多的机会。
“All of this is not to say that the Internet has not revolutionized job hunting.It has certainly made it easier for someone in San Francisco,for example,to search for job openings in Miami.”(所有这些并不是说互联网没有彻底改变求职。
