根据提示，用英语写一篇发言稿。

内容要点应包括:1. 部分同学的饮食习惯2. 良好的饮食习惯3. 个人看法Good morning every one. It is my great honor to be here to talk to all of you. Today, I would like to talk something about the healthy eating habits.As we all know, we are what we eat . Therefore, it’s a very important for us to f rom healthy eating habits. However, bad eating habits are still very common among us students. Some of us often go to school without breakfast; some like to have snacks; and still some eat or drink too much. All these bad habits will surely do harm to our health. To keep fit, we should have various healthy diets, which generally include proper amounts (适量)of fish, meat, v egetables, fruit as well as main food. Besides, we’d better have meals regularly.In my opinion, we should try to develop healthy eating habits to build up a strong body. Only in this way can we have enough energy to study better.That’s all. Thank you!二．单句改错（1分每空）1.Wang Peng _______ (feel) very frustrated when he saw none of his customers would eat in his restaurant.2.In his opinion，nothing could be ________(good) than his fried rice or his sugary cola.3.When _________ (follow) one of his best friends into Yong Hui’s newly opened restaurant，he was ________(amaze) at the menu there：raw vegetables，fruit and water.4.Business and pleasure should________（combine）to keep health.三．阅读理解Looking for a new weight loss plan？Try living on the top of a mountain. Mountain air contains less oxygen than air at lower altitudes，so breathing it causes the heart to beat faster and the body to burn more energy. Studies have found that athletes training at high altitudes tend to lose weight. Doctor Florian wondered how the mountain air would affect obese individuals if they weren't doing any more physical activity than usual.Florian and his colleagues invited 20 obese men to an environmental research station about 300 meters below the top of a mountain around 2,970 meters near the Austrian border. This was no hiking expedition（远征）. They were allowed to eat as much as they liked. The men also gave blood so that researchers could test for hormones(荷尔蒙)linked to appetite（食欲）and obesity. At the end of the week，the men，whose weight starting out was 105 kilograms，had lost about 1.5 kg on average. The men's blood pressure also dropped，which the researchers owed to weight lost. Exactly what caused the weight loss is uncertain.Loss of appetite is common at higher altitudes, and indeed the men ate significantly less than usual—about 700 calories(千卡)fewer per day.Appetite loss at high altitudes could certainly be key, notes Damian Bailey，who himself recently lost 11 kg during a 3-month expedition to the Andes in Chile. Florian says，half-jokingly，“If obese people plan their holidays，they might not go to the sea，but maybe to the mountains.”1．The underlined word“obese”in the first paragraph probably means “______”．A．unhealthy B．swollen C．very fat D．tall2．Hormones were tested in the research because they could affect ______.A．one's body appetite and weight B．one's blood pressureC．one's way of living D．one's heart-beating rate1 / 33．What was found about the 20 obese men in the process of the research?A．They controlled what to eat. C．They lost appetite because of lack of physical activities.B．They took in fewer calories than usual. D．They were provided with a healthier diet than before. 三．完型填空The food we eat seems to have profound effects on our health. Although science has made many 1 in making food more fit to eat, it has, at the same time, made many foods 2 to eat. Some research has shown that perhaps eighty percent of all human illnesses have 3 to do with diet. 4 forty percent of cancer is connected with the diet as well , 5 cancer of the colon(结肠).Different cultures are more likely to 6 certain illnesses because of the food that is 7 in these cultures. That food goes together with illness is not a new 8 . In 1945, government researchers realized that nitrates(硝酸盐) 9 used to protect color in meats, and other food additives(添加剂), caused cancer. Yet, these additives 10 in our food, and it becomes more difficult all the time to 11 which things on the packaging labels(标签) of 12 food are helpful or 13 .The additives which we eat are not all so 14 . Sometimes, it is hard to find. Farmers often give penicillin to beef and poultry(家禽), and because of this, penicillin （青霉素）has been found in the 15 of treated cows. Sometimes similar drugs are supplied to animals not for medicinal 16 , but for financial reasons. The farmers are simply trying to 17 the animals in order to obtain a higher 18 on the market. Although the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has tried 19 to control these procedures, the practices 20 .1. A. laws B. ways C. sources D. tricks2. A. unfit B. fit C. delicious D. good3. A. nothing B. anything C. everything D. something4. A. But B.So C. And D. Or5. A. specially B. extremely C. awfully D. especially6. A. develop B. make C. find D. produce7.

Make reservations in advance.BNelle Harper Lee was born on April 28,1926. Since Lee’s mother was mentally ill, she was raised by her lather. She became very close to her father.The naughty Lee loved reading, and would make up stories with Truman Capote, her neighbour who was two years older than her. Seeing his daughter’s imagination, Lee’s father gave her a typewriter.In high school, Lee developed an interest in English literature. After graduating in 1944, she went to the all-female Huntingdon College in Montgomery. Lee stood apart from the other students. She could have cared more about fashion, make-up, or dating. Instead, she focused on studies and writing. Transferring (转学) to the University of Alabama, Lee was known for being a loner and an individualist. Before her final year in the University of Alabama, Lee dropped out to become a writer. She moved to New York City where her childhood friend Truman was already a famous writer. While there, she worked on her first book — To Kill a Mockingbird. It won her the Pulitzer Prize in 1961 and was made into an Academy Award winning movie the following year.To Kill a Mockingbird tells the story of six-year- old Scout and her brother who live in the town of Maycomb, Alabama with their single father Atticus. Atticus is a lawyer who defends blacks. At a young age, Scout lives in the surroundings of the terrors of segregation (隔离政策).Then, in 2014, the first draft (草稿) of a new book —Go Set a Watchman was discovered among Lee’s papers. It is the story of 26-year-old Scout who returns to Maycomb to visit her father. She is shocked to find her father a changed man. He has turned into a segregationist!The story shows the mixed feelings Scout has about the changes that have taken place in her homeland and her father. A loner for most of her life, Lee stayed unmarried, preferring to lead a small town life. On February 19,2016, Lee passed away at the age of 89.24．What can we learn about Lee?A．She became a professional writer at college.B．She had a gift for writing.C．She was persuaded to become a writer by Truman.D．She got interested in writing after getting a typewriter.25．What did the characters Lee described in To Kill a Mockingbird show?A．Her love for a mockingbird.B．The effect of having a sick mother. C．Her experience of learning English literature.D．Her relationship with her father.26．What happens to Scout’s father in Go Set a Watchman?A．He has mixed feelings towards the blacks.B．He straggles for the equal rights of the black people.C．He supports segregating blacks from whites.D．He fails to get used to the changes of his homeland.27．What is the passage mainly about?A．How Lee fought against segregation.B．How Lee’s book made her world-famous.C．Lee’s whole life and her famous books.D．Lee lived a painful life all her life.CIt was late August when I got a call from a grandmother. She lives in Seeley Lake, Montana, and she has heard we have air purifiers (净化器) with high-efficiency particulate air (HEPA) air-cleaners that can help with smoke. She needs one for the baby’s room. I explained we didn’t have any and told her how to purchase one.She coughed and went silent with disappointment before asking how much they cost. Almost every person I talk to in Seeley Lake has this cough. “The family doesn’t have much money,” she said, but she promised to order a filter for the child. Small filters—ones that can clean a bedroom of up to 75 square feet—cost about $70 each.The next day, the wildfire that had been burning for weeks in the Lolo National Forest, northeast of town, moved closer to the woman’s neighborhood, and the county sheriff’s office evacuated (疏散) the area. I wondered whether the air-cleaner would be there when the family returned home. I knew the smoke would be.As an air-quality specialist with the Missoula City-County Health Department in Montana, my job is to understand air pollution, control it as much as possible, and help people protect themselves from its effects. I focus on smoke management: issuing permits for outdoor burns and updating residents about what to expect from the smoke when wildfires send it our way.Never had we seen so many wildfires so close to home for so many weeks. There are six classes on the Environmental Protection Agency’s Air Quality Index (指数): good, moderate, unhealthy for sensitive groups, unhealthy, very unhealthy, and dangerous. Seeley Lake’s air reached dangerous class in 18 days last summer.Last year was troubled by wildfires around the country. The fires that struck Northern California alone killed44 people and cau sed more than $9 billion in damage. But this isn’t just a recent problem, nor is it limited to the West. Wildfires hit 49 states in 2017, including a swath from Florida to Virginia. More than 9 million acres burned nationwide, compared with the yearly average of 6.5 million acres.28．Why did the grandmother make a call to the author?A．To prevent the wildfire.B．To help her make a move.C．To ask for an air purifier.D．To get information about air pollution.29．How did the woman feel about the author’s reply?A．Angry. B．Hopeful.C．Excited. D．Disappointed.30．What’s the author’s purpose of writing paragraph 5?A．To add some background information.B．To summarize the previous paragraphs.C．To introduce a new topic for discussion.D．To make the readers realize the situation.31．Compared with the yearly average, the burned acres nationwide in 2017 rose by ________.A．about 49% B．about 38%C．about 72% D．about 52%DThe City of Christchurch, New Zealand was struck by a 7.1-magnitude earthquake on the early morning of Saturday, September 4, 2010.No tsunami alert was reported. The country's army troops were on standby to assist victims and disaster recovery operation. New Zealand's Prime Minister John Key, flew to the affected area to inspect and assess the situation of the damaged city. The Prime Minister said that the full assessment of the damages would possibly take months to know the severity of damages. Based from his assessment on what he saw in the area, it could cost at least 2 billion New Zealand dollars or US$1.4 billion for reconstruction.“An absolute miracle that no one died，” Prime Minister John Key said. Two were seriously injured from this quake and thousands of local residents were awakened after being shaken at 4:35 a.m. of that Saturday.There were people trapped inside the damaged buildings but fortunately none were reported dead from the rubble of the damaged buildings.“We're all feeling scared—we've just had some significant aftershocks，” a survivor told TV One News. “Tonight we're just people in the face of a massive natural disaster, trying to help each other and we're grateful we haven't lost a life.”GNS Science reported 29 aftershocks within the 14 hours after the quake, with strength from magnitude 3.7 to 5.4.New_Zealand_is_no_stranger_to_earthquakes. The country experiences more than 14,000 earthquakes a year—but only about 150 are felt by people.“Many buildings here were built with earthquake protection measures. However, in most cities in developing countries, people build how they want to and there're no building controls to force them to build to a higher standard that's safe，” Andrew Charleson, an architecture professor at Victoria University of Wellington told CNN.32．How many people were killed in the New Zealand earthquake on September 4, 2010?A．250,000.

And even if he does not become very rich, he wants people to think that he is. That is what “keeping up with the Joneses” is about. It is the story of someone who tried to look as rich as his neighbors. The expression was first used in 1913 by a young American called Arthur Momand. He told this story about himself. He began earning $125 a week at the age of 23. That was a lot of money in those days. He got married and moved with his wife to a very wealthy neighborhood outside New York City. When he saw that rich people rode horses, Momand went horseback riding every day. When he saw that rich people had servants, Momand and his wife also hired a servant and gave big parties for their new neighbors. It was like a race, but one could never finish his race because one was always trying to keep up. The race ended for Momand and his wife when they could no longer pay for their new way of life. They moved back to an apartment in New York City. Momand looked around him and noticed that many people do things just to keep up with rich lifestyle of their neighbors. He saw the funny side of it and started to write a series of short stories. He called it “Keeping up with the Joneses” because “Jones” is a very common name in the United States. “Keeping up with the Joneses” came to mean keeping up with rich lifestyle of the people around you. Momand’s series appeared in different newspapers across the country for over 28 years.此卷只装订不密封班级姓名准考证号考场号座位号People never seem to get tired of keeping up with the Joneses.

Online bookstores offer new books and used books that can save you lots of money. They are far better compared to traditional bookstores as they offer much wider kinds of books. Another advantage of buying books online is that you can also read the book reviews as well as readers’ reviews to get an idea whether the book is worth buying. Online bookstores offer great discounts to regular customers which is a big attraction for book lovers.For book lovers, the most important thing is to get books on time. Therefore, you need to find a reliable online bookstore that will be able to provide fast deliveries(送货).Here are some tips to use when choosing an online bookstore. Some online bookstores are popular for fiction books; some are for non-fiction books or novels, etc. Understanding their specialization will help you get the right kind of books in time. Check whether you will be buying the books from a third-party seller or directly from the website. Although the website could be reputable(声誉好的)，third-party sellers advertised on their site may not have a good reputation.

Because of some flights that can often last several days, weeks, or even longer, some sea birds have long been thought of being able to fall fully asleep while “on the wing”, though it was not proven.Now researchers say they have evidence which shows birds can sleep in flight. Scientists from Max Planck Institute used a sample of 15 adult female frigatebirds(军舰鸟) to test the sleep patterns. Each bird had a small electroencephalogram(EEG脑电图) sensor fitt ed to record changes in the animals’ brain activity as they flew for up to 10 days and over 3,000 kilometres.The readings showed that during flight the birds could sleep using one hemisphere of the brain, or both together. It was known that frigatebirds could sleep with one “half” of the brain, which allows them to keep one eye open and “connected” to the awake half.According to the research, it is sleeping tech nique used by birds for finding directions. “Frigatebirdssleep mostly while circling in rising air and keep the eye connected to the awake hemisphere facing the direction of flight, suggesting that they watch where they are going,” says the study.Despite the ability to fall “fully” asleep, the birds were found to do it less in the air compared to one land. They slept “very little and less deeply while in flight. This suggests that though it is possible, falling totally asleep is not very good during fligh t which will need the bird’s attention.The researchers said the short sleep could be serving as “power naps” to keep the birds going until they return to land. Further study could help us understand why lack of sleep affects humans so badly.32. The phras e “on the wing” in the first paragraph may mean .A. sleepingB. fightingC. flyingD. thinking33. Why did the researchers fit the frigatebirds with EEG sensors?A. To know animals’ brain activity.B. To get some of the good samples.C. To help the birds fly much longer.D. To use the birds to find directions.34. How do the sleeping birds find the directions?A. They keep one eye connected to the awake part.B. They sleep less when they are circling in rising air.C. They pay special attention to the way.D. They have a good sleep before they start flying.35. What is the best title of the text?A. A Study on Birds in FlightB. Birds Can Sleep in FlightC. Flying Bird’s Brain ActivityD. Sleep With Half of the Brain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。

Although dieters may really show weight loss from a fad diet, they will almost certainly get back the weight if their usual eating habits (习惯) remain unchanged. Moreover, fad diets continuously call for special products of questionable value or for “health foods” that may cost twice as much as supermarket(超市) foods. Worse yet, certain fad diets don't include nutrients(营养)good for health. People have been known to become very ill as a result of following medically unhealthy diets.The worse fact of fad diets, though, is that they keep people who are over-weight or sick from receiving the medical care that they truly need.46. The word “fad” in the first se ntence means ______.A. newB. wonderfulC. popular quicklyD. loved by people47. From the text we know that ______.A. people refuse to accept fad dietsB. fad diets can help people to lose weightC. a man can lose weight after eating a fad dietD. fad diets are now welcomed by people48.

The last paragraph tells us ______.A. that fad dieters are often overweightB. fad dieters need medical care if they are overweight or sickC. how fad dieters get sickD. overweight or sick fad dieter can’t get medical care in timeB篇People in the United States honor their parents with 2 special days: Mother’s Day on the second Sunday in May and Father’s Day on the 3rd Sunday in June. The se days are to show love and respect for parents. They raise their children and educate them to be responsible citizens. They give love and care. These two days offer an opportunity to think about the changing roles of mothers and fathers. More mothers now work outside the home and more fathers must help with childcare.These two special days are celebrated in many different ways. On mother’s Day, people wear carnations. A red one symbolizes a living mother. A white one shows that the mother is dead. M any people attend religious services to honor parents. It’s also a day when people whose parents are dead visit the cemetery(grave). On these days families get together at home as well as in restaurants. They often have outdoorbarbecue for Father’s Day. T hese are days of fun and good feelings and memories.Another tradition is to give cards and gifts. Children make them in school. Many people make their own presents. These are more valued than those bought in stores. It’s not the value of the gift that is important, but “the thought that counts”. Greeting card stores, florists, candy makers, bakers, phone companies and other stores do lots of business during these holidays.51.Which is NOT a reason for children to show love and respect for parents?A. Parents bring up children.B. Parents give love and care to children.C. Parents educate children to be good persons.D. Parents pass away before children grow up.52.What do you know from the passage?A.

ATwo good friends, Sam and Jason, met with a car accident on their way home one night. The next morning, Sam woke up blind. His legs were broken.

What do they usually do in their free time? You may feel curious about them. On April 8, a report came out on the lives of high school students in China, Japan, South Korea and the US. It surveyed around 6,200 students from the four countries last year. You will find the answers to many of your questions in this report. Who studies hardest? Chinese students spend the most time studying. Nearly half of Chinese students spend more than two hours on their homework every day. That’s much more than the US (26.496), Japan (8.2%) and South Korea (5.2%). Who sleeps most often in class? Japanese students fall asleep in class most often. About 45% of them said they soon doze off in class. In South Korea, it’s 32%; in the US, 21%; and 5% in China. South Korean students don’t like taking notes. A bout 70% said they write down what the teacher says in class, many fewer than in Japan (93%), china (90%) and the US (89%). Who is the most distracted (走神)?

It can be a new experience, bu t you shouldn’t worry. We’ve put together a guide on how to survive the first week.You're not aloneRemember everybody else in your year is in the same boat. They may not realize it, but they're just as nervous as you are. Moving to senior high school is an opportunity, not a problem. Things are different and all you need to do is be polite and learn the new rules.Teachers are ready to help!If you're unsure what to do or are worried about anything then you had better ask for help. Teachers are probably the best people to turn to as they're experienced in helping new students. Some senior high schools also have a “friends system”. If your school has this, then you will be paired with an older student. They will look out for you and help you if you have any problems or questions.All changeThere are lots of differences between junior high school and senior high school. You'll have a homework diary or a student planner. You will have your lessons with different teachers in different rooms. You will have homework for different subjects on different days, so make sure you get organized. Make sure you have a copy of your school timetable written down so you know which rooms your classes are in and on which days you will have your different subjects.Other pointsIf you've got an older brother or sister at the school then ask them for advice.Be yourself! It sounds simple, but people will know you much better if you just act naturally.Having early nights makes a difference and you'll find it easier to get up in the morning!28.

Other students have similar feelings to yours.D. Other students will help you solve your problems.29. Why do the new students turn to teachers first when having problems?A.

Which of the following is NOT true?A. You can act in a natural way.B. You should go to bed early enough.C. You may ask your older brother for advice.D. You must focus on dressing properly.31. What's the purpose of the passage?A. To help new students to get used to life in senior high school.B. To tell students the importance of learning.C. To make a difference when moving up to senior high school.D. To warn students not to ignore friendship in senior high school.DNow many young people are travelling around the world on their own, not because they have no one to travel with, but because they prefer to go alone.Kristina Wegscheider from California first traveled alone when she was at college and believes that it was something eve ryone should do at least once in their life. “It opens up your mind to new things and pushes you out of your comfort zone.” Wegscheider has visited 46 countries covering all seven continents.In foreign countries, with no one to help you read a map, look after you if you get ill, or lend you money if your wallet is stolen, it is challenging. This is what drives young people to travel alone. It is seen as character building and a chance to prove that they can make it on their own.Chris Richardson decided to leave his sales job in Australia to go traveling last year. He set up a website, The Aussie Nomad, to document his adventures. He says he wished he had traveled alone earlier. “The people you meet, the places you visit, or the things you do, everything is up to you and it forces you to grow as a person,” said the 30year-old.Richardson describes traveling alone like “a shot in the arm”,which “makes you a more confident person that is ready to deal with anything”. He said: “The feeling of having conquered something on my own is a major part of what drives me each day when I'm dealing with a difficult task. I walk around with my head up because I know deep down inside that nothing is impossible if you try.”The great 19th century explorer John Muir once said: “Only by going alone in silence can one truly get into the heart of the wilderness.”32. Why is it challenging to travel alone?A. It will finally build your character.B. You have to make things on your own.C. It is hard for you to prove yourself to others.D. You depend on yourself whatever happens.33. Which of the following will Kristina Wegscheider agree with?A. Traveling abroad helps people to find new things.B. It is more meaningful to travel in foreign countries.C. It is comfortable to travel around without a friend.D. Traveling alone is a necessary experience for everyone.34. What can we infer about Chris Richardson?A. He started traveling at an early age.B. He was once shot in the arm.C. He used to work as a salesman.D. His website inspires others a lot.35. What is the best title for other passage?A. Travel Wide and FarB. Travel UnaccompaniedC. Travel LightD. Travel Abroad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。

AVolunteering abroad is a great way to help others, improve your skills and become a more confident, independent person. If you are interested in volunteering abroad, here are some places to go.AustraliaIf you seek a life on the beach, in a great climate with friendly people, Australia might be your best bet. With thousands of volunteers already signing up to leave for Australia during the holidays, it will be a very popular option.BrazilThis vast country has some great opportunities on offer and is especially popular this year. A lot of volunteer work is available in Brazil centers on conservation and ecological projects. With the world's largest rainforest in Brazil, of which huge part is in danger, there are lots of different jobs you can do.KenyaKenya is the destination for those seeking an African experience. Generally volunteers in Kenya work in orphanages(孤儿院)or with local children living in slums(贫民窟). There is a great demand for volunteers in Africa because many people live in poverty, so if you truly feel like making a difference to a community, Kenya should be at the top of your list.Costa RicaGolden sandy beaches, clear coastlines and beautiful cities are what Costa Rica is all about. Because of its small size, you can see a lot of the country in just a short time. You can really make the most of your time as a volunteer. A lot of work is needed with wildlife and ecological work, so if you want to look after turtles on the beach, Costa Rica could be just the place for you21. If you want to do some research about some rare trees, you will probably go to _.A. AustraliaB. KenyaC. BrazilD. Costa Rica22. It can be inferred from the passage that volunteers in Kenya mainly work with .A. animalsB. plantsC. the elderlyD. children23. If you choose to go to Costa Rica, you should .A. work with animals on the beachB. surf with children in the waterC. take care of trees in the forestsD. look after children who have lost their parentsBIn the United States, when one becomes rich, he wants people to know it. And even if he does not become very rich, he wants people to think that he is. That is what “keeping up with the Joneses” is about. It is the story of someone who tried to look as rich as his neighbors.The expression was first used in 1913 by a young American called Arthur Momand. He told this story about himself. He began earning $125 a week at the age of 23. That was a lot of money in those days. He got married and moved with his wife to a very wealthy neighborhood outside New York City. When he saw that rich people rode horses, Momand went horseback riding every day. When he saw that rich people had servants, Momand and his wife also hired a servant and gave big parties for their new neighbors.It was like a race, but one could never finish his race because one was always trying to keep up.The race ended for Momand and his wife when they could no longer pay for their new way of life. They moved back to an apartment in New York City.Momand looked around him and noticed that many people do things just to keep up with rich lifestyle of their neighbors. He saw the funny side of it and started to write a series of short stories. He called it “Keeping up with the Joneses” because “Jones” is a very common name in the United States. “Keeping up with the Joneses” came to mean keeping up with rich lifestyle of the people around you. Momand’s series appeared in different newspapers across the country for over 28 years.People never seem to get tired of keeping up with the Joneses. And there are “Jonses” in every city of the world. But one must get tired of trying to keep up with the Joneses because no matter what one does, Mr. Jones always seems to be ahead.24. Some people want to keep up with the Joneses because they .A. want to be as rich as their neighborsB. want others to know or to think that they are richC. don’t want others to know they are richD. want to be happy25. It can be inferred(推断) from the story that rich people like to .A. live outside New York CityB. live in New York cityC. live in apartmentsD. have many neighbors26. Arthur Momand used the name “Jones” in his series of short stories because “Jones” is .A. an important nameB. a popular name in the United StatesC. his neighbor’s nameD. not a good name27. According to the writer, it is to keep up with the Joneses.A. correctB. interestingC. impossibleD. goodCBuying books on the Internet is a great way to save time and money. Online bookstores offer new books and used books that can save you lots of money. They are far better compared to traditional bookstores as they offer much wider kinds of books. Another advantage of buying books online is that you can also read the book reviews as well as readers’ reviews to get an idea whether the book is worth buying. Online bookstores offer great discounts to regular customers which is a big attraction for booklovers.For book lovers, the most important thing is to get books on time. Therefore, you need to find a reliable online bookstore that will be able to provide fast deliveries(送货).Here are some tips to use when choosing an online bookstore. Some online bookstores are popular for fiction books; some are for non-fiction books or novels, etc. Understanding their specialization will help you get the right kind of books in time. Check whether you will be buying the books from a third-party seller or directly from the website. Although the website could be reputable(声誉好的)，third-party sellers advertised on their site may not have a good reputation. Never jump at stores that offer super cheap prices, as books sold at such low prices could be in very bad condition.Most of the popular online bookstores offer useful tools.

Because of some flights that can often last several days, weeks, or even longer, some sea birds have long been thought of being able to fall fully asleep while “on the wing”, though it was not proven.Now researchers say they have evidence which shows birds can sleep in flight. Scientists from Max Planck Institute used a sample of 15 adult female frigatebirds(军舰鸟) to test the sleep patterns. Each bird had a small electroencephalogram(EEG脑电图) sensor fitted to record changes in the animals’ brain activity as they flew for up to 10 days and over 3,000 kilometres.The readings showed that during flight the birds could sleep using one hemisphere of the brain, or both together. It was known that frigatebirds could sleep with one “half” of the brain, which allows them to keep one eye open and “connected” to the awake half.According to the research, it is sleeping technique used by birds for finding directions. “Frigatebirds sleep mostly while circling in rising air and keep the eye connected to the awake hemisphere facing the direction of flight, suggesting that they watch where they are going,” says the study.Despite the ability to fall “fully” asleep, the birds were found to do it less in the air compared to one land. They slept “very little and less deeply while in flight. This suggests that though it is possible, falling totally asleep is not very good during fligh t which will need the bird’s attention.The researchers said the short sleep could be serving as “power naps” to keep the birds going until they return to land. Further study could help us understand why lack of sleep affects humans so badly.32. The phras e “on the wing” in the first paragraph may mean .A. sleepingB. fightingC. flyingD. thinking33. Why did the researchers fit the frigatebirds with EEG sensors?A. To know animals’ brain activity.B. To get some of the good samples.C. To help the birds fly much longer.D. To use the birds to find directions.34. How do the sleeping birds find the directions?A. They keep one eye connected to the awake part.B. They sleep less when they are circling in rising air.C. They pay special attention to the way.D. They have a good sleep before they start flying.35. What is the best title of the text?A. A Study on Birds in FlightB. Birds Can Sleep in FlightC. Flying Bird’s Brain ActivityD. Sleep With Half of the Brain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。

ABelieve it nor not, ancient Chinese people had their own methods of heat preservation in winter.• “Wen Ding”, ancient rice cookerThe “Wen Ding”, an ancient cooking container, preserved heat by burning fuels like charcoal. The one unearthed in Nanjing in 1989 is thought to be the oldest of its kind discovered in China, dating back to the Stone Age.• “Ran Lu”, ancient small hot potThe “Ran Lu” is a small-sized cooking vessel (器皿) made of bronze. A charcoal stove forms the main structure, with a bottom tray to hold charcoal ashes, and a movable cup at the top. Some experts have concluded that the vessel’s structure suggests that these vessels became popular in the Warring States Period (475—221 BC).• Bronze You, ancient kettleThe Bronze You, one of the most common wine containers during the Shang and Zhou, dynasties, could also be used to warm wine. For example, the Bronze You with beast mask design, unearthed in Jiangxi province, had an opening where charcoals could be placed, allowing people to enjoy a hot drink.• Bronze Yan, ancient steamerAlthough the “Wen Ding” was effective at keeping food warm, ancient Chinese people later found that its burning produced pollution. As a result, the Bronze Van was made with a two-tier (双层的) structure and used to steam rice and other grains. After the Eastern Han Dynasty (AD 25-AD 220), further improvements to the Bronze Yan led to the modern day steamer.21. When did the “Ran Lu” begin to gain popularity?A. In the Zhou DynastyB.

As soon as he starts to draw the crowd, a zoo keeper grabs him and drags him into his office. The zoo keeper explains to the mime that the zoo’s most popular attraction, a gorilla, died suddenly and the keeper fears that the attendance at the zoo will fall off. He offers the mime a job to dress up as the gorilla until they can get another one. The mime accepts.So the next morning the mime puts on the gorilla suit and enters the cage before the crowd comes. He discovers that it’s a great job. He can sleep when he wants to, play and make fun of people and he draws bigger crowds than he ever did as a mime. However, eventually the crowds get tired of him and he doesn’t like just swinging on wires any longer. He begins to notice that the people are paying more attention to the lion in the cage next to his.Not wanting to lose the attention of his audience, he climbs to the top of his cage, crawls across a partition(隔开物), and dangles(悬荡) from the top of the lion’s cage. Of course, this makes the lion furious, but the crowd loves it. At the end of the day the zoo keeper comes and gives the mime a raise for being such a good attraction. Well, this goes on for some time, the mime keeps laughing at the lion, the crowds grow larger, and his salary keeps going up.Then one terrible day when he is dangling over the furious lion he slips and falls. The mime is terrified. The lion gathers its strength and prepares to pounce(猛扑). The mime is so scared that he begins to runround and round in the cage with the lion close behind. Finally, the mime starts screaming and yelling, "Help me! Help me!", but the lion is quick and pounces.

It is home to an amazing variety of turtles, sharks, whales, dolphins,large fish,birds,corals, plants, and many other species.Many of these species are endangered elsewhere in the world, but still survive in the healthy environment of the Coral Sea.The Coral Sea is a large series of coral reefs located off the northeast coast of Australia. This area is three times larger than Australia’s famous Great Barrier Reef, which the Coral Sea borders.The Coral Sea is one of the few coral reef environments that have remained largely undamaged by over-fishing, oil and gas exploration and pollution. However, statistics show that coral reefs around the world are disappearing five times faster than rainforests. It is very likely that in the near future the Coral Sea will face the same threats to its existence.The Australian government is currently looking at options for protecting the Coral Sea but has made no decisions. Environmentalists are pushing for laws to declare the Coral Sea area a marine protected area, which will mean a large “no-take zone” for fishermen, a no-exploration zone for gas and oil companies and a no-dump zone for pollution, possibly making the Coral Sea a marine park larger than any other in the world.We can write letters to Australian leaders, Australian environmental protection agencies, and Australian friends, to let them know that people worldwide support this protection of the Coral Sea. To lose this last great marine wilderness world would be a loss for the whole world.29. According to the passage, why should we protect the Coral Sea without any delay?A. Because the Coral Sea, home to many species, will disappear soon.B. Because the Coral Sea is rich in natural resources like oil and gas.C. Because the Coral Sea is three times larger than Great Barrier Reef.D. Because the Coral Sea will be a marine park larger than any other in the world.30. Once the Coral Sea area is declared n marine protected area by law, .A. it will surely become the largest marine park all over the worldB. no one will be allowed to there to have a dose look any moreC. from time to time people can still dump their rubbish around thereD. over-fishing, oil and gas exploration will be banned altogether there31. What is the attitude of the author towards the protection of the Coral Sea?A. Objective.B. Favorable.C. Doubtful.D. Negative.DBritish English may have come first, but around the world, the American way of spelling is now far more popular.A recent examination of the English language shows that publications now largely use the American version swapping words like “centre” for “center” after the 1880s. To get data, researchers used Google’s Ngram Viewer to analyze the words found in all English-language publications from 1800 to 2000. Entering a word into the viewer will show how frequently it occurs within the massive corpus(语料库)of books around the world.According to the data, this shift was further strengthened around World War I. Since then, English-language publications have preferred “gray” and “flavor” instead of “grey” and “flavour”. The American spelling has continued to grow over the years, with “liter” passing “liter” around 1900, and “center” becoming the more common choice over “centre” in 1913. “1913 marked a turning point in British spelling, as the American alternative became more frequently used in literature,” the post explains, in regard to“center”. This was just a year before the beginning of World War I, which many views as a key period in America’s rise to superpower status.Though this switched again between 1920s and the late 1930s, the American, spelling took over for good around 1940, during which time the spelling “airplane” shifted dramatically over “aeroplane”.Ever since the middle of the 19th century, even the British Isles have slowly rejected the old spelling. The future is gray for British English.32. Which of the following is true?A. American spelling takes over all the timeB. British people refuse to use American spellingC. All the media prefer American spellingD. The change in spelling is more obvious around World War I33. What’s the main idea of the second paragraph?A. The popularity of American spellingB. The examples of the change in spellingC. The history of English spellingD. The reason for the change in English spelling34. The passage is developed _______.A. by spaceB. by timeC. by processD. by logic35. The passage is written to _____.A. introduce the change of English spellingB. encourage the change in English spellingC. compare the difference between American spelling and British spellingD. introduce different views on English spelling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。
