At that time, most advice on nutrition came from North American and European countries. Nutritionists suggested foods that were common and worked well for people who lived in these nations.For example, they told poor Indian women to eat more meal and eggs and drink more orange juice. But Lakshmi knew this advice was useless in a country like India. People there didn’t eat such foods. They weren’t easy to find. And for the poor, such foods were too expensive.Lakshmi knew that for the program to work, it had to fit Indian culture. So she decided to adjust the nutrition program. She first found out what healthy middle-class people in India ate. She took note of the nutrients(营养物) available in those foods. Then she looked for cheap, easy-to-find foods that would provide the same nutrients.She created a balanced diet of locally grown fruits, vegetables, and grains. These foods were cheap and could be cooked with simple equipment. Her ideas were thought unusual in the 1960s. For example, she insisted that a diet without meal could provide all major nutrients. Now we know she was right. But it took her continuous efforts to get others to finally accept her diet about 50 years ago. Because of Lakshmi’s program, Indian children almost doubled their food intake. And many children who would have been hungry and ill grew healthy and strong.24. Why did Lakshmi think European nutritionists’ advice was useless?A. It worked well for European people.B. It suggested too many foods for Indians.C. It was not practical in India at that time.D. It included foods that didn’t exist in India.25. Lakshmi studied healthy middle-class people’s diet in order to .A. know about their eating habitsB. learn about Indian cultureC. find out nutrients in their foodD. write a report on food nutrients26. Lakshmi’s balanced diet was considered unusual because people thought .A. those foods were too cheapB. it should include some meatC. it provided all major nutrientsD. it enabled kids to grow healthy27. What can we infer about Lakshmi?A. She came from a rich family.B. She disliked middle-class people.C. She worked with European nutritionists.D. She was a determined scientist.CBlack FridayThe day after Thanksgiving is the start of the holiday shopping season. Thanksgiving is always on a Thursday, so the day after is a Friday. This day has come to be known as Black Friday. It has been the busiest shopping day of the year since 2005.Most stores offer great deals on Black Friday. They open their doors in the small hours of the morning. They try to attract shoppers with big discounts. Some items like TVs are much cheaper than usual. Stores may even lose money on these items. They hope that shoppers will buy gifts for other people while they are in the store.Black Friday is a great time to get good deals. The problem is that there are not enough low-priced items to go around. Each store may only have a few. These items are in high demand. People stand in long lines to get such great deals. They may line up hours before a store opens. They may be hoping to get a low price on a TV or laptop, but not everyone who wants one will get one. Some people leave disappointed.The situation can be tense. Some Black Friday events have been violent. Large, eager crowds have trampled workers. Fights have broken out over toys or people cutting in line. People have shot one another over parking spots. But most Black Friday events are safe and fun. Still, if you plan on going, expect large crowds and a bit of pushing and shoving.So where does the name “Black Friday” come from? It was first used in Philadelphia in the 1950s. The police called this day Black Friday because of the heavy traffic it drew. In the 1960s, spread across the country. It seems that it is here to stay.Now people all over the country take part in the event known as Black Friday. It is even spreading to other parts of the world. Stores have held Black Friday events in the U.K., Australia, and Brazil since 2012. In Costa Rica Black Friday is known as “Viernes Negro”. And in Mexico, stores offer an annual weekend of discounts. They call it “El Buen Fin”, which means “the good weekend” in Spanish. I guess the language of savings is universal.28. Why do stores set prices so low on some items that they lose money?A. They want people to enjoy the holidays.B. They are generous at the beginning of the holiday season.C. They hope people will buy other gifts while they are in the store.D. They are trying to get rid of old items.29. Which best concludes the main idea of the third paragraph?A. People stand in long lines on Black Friday.B. Black Friday is a really disappointing time of the year.C. Black Friday is the best time of the year to get good deals.D. Black Friday deals are limited and not everyone will get one.30. Which best describes the overall structure of the fifth paragraph?A. Order of time.B. Problem and solution.C. Order of importance.D. Compare and contrast.31. Which title best expresses the author’s purpose in writing this text?A. Black Friday: Stories from the Parking LotB. Black Friday: Why You Should Go This YearC. Black Friday: The Stuff That You Should KnowD. Black Friday: How to Save Money on the Big DayDWatching what you eat can be easier said than done, but a recent study shows it might not just be about what’s on your plate — it could be about how quickly it disappears.Japanese researchers followed 1,083 adults for five years, splitting them into three categories based on how quickly they ate: slow, normal, and fast. They also answered a questionnaire at the beginning of the study, sharing their diet, physical activity, and medical history. In the beginning, none of the volunteers had metabolic syndrome(新陈代谢综合征) — meaning at least three risk factors — which can lead to health problems like heart conditions and diabetes.When the participants reported back five years later, 84 had been diagnosed (诊断) with metabolic syndrome —and their eating speed was a major predictor, according to the results in the journal Circulation. The fast eaters were 89 percent more likely to have metabolic syndrome than slow and normal eaters. Just 2.3 percent of slow eaters received the diagnosis, compared to 11.6 percent of fast eaters. But that’s not all. Fast eaters also saw more weight gain, larger waistlines, and higher blood sugar levels than slow eaters.The researchers say gobbling makes it easier not to take notice of fullness before your body has a chance to signal you to stop. “So when people eat fast they are more likely to overeat,” sa id Takayuki Yamaji, MD, study author and cardiologist at Hiroshima University in Japan in a statement.Previous research backs up the weight benefits of slow eating, too. One study of New Zealand women found fast eaters have higher body-mass indexes (指数), and a Chinese study found that both healthy and fat men ate less when told to chew 40 times instead of 15 times before swallowing. Initial research even suggests chewing your food longer could burn more calories — up to about 1,000 extra every month.32. What are the participants divided by?A. Medical history.B. Health condition.C. Physical activity.D. Eating speed.33. Which may be the result of the study?A. Fast eaters are 4 times more likely to have metabolic syndrome.B. Normal and slow eaters don’t have metabolic illness.C. 89% of fast eaters have higher blood pressure.D. Slow eaters are healthier than fast eaters.34. What does the underlined word “gobbling” in Paragraph 4 best mean?A. Tasting slowly.B. Digesting quickly.C. Eating greedily.D. Cooking carefully.35. What does the last paragraph tell us?A. The importance of eating speed.B. The advantage of eating slowly.C. The result of a Chinese study.D. Fast eating and overeating.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。

第Ⅰ卷第一部分 听力(共两节,满分30分)略 第二部分 阅读理解(共两节,满分40分)AMany of us have heard of the saying: everything is possible if you can just believe. But few of us really know the power of faith and perseverance. South African swimmer Natalie du Toit embodies those virtues.Du Toit, 24, became the first swimmer to compete in both the Olympic Games and the Paralympics(残奥会) in Beijing. Although she finished 16th in the tough 10km marathon in the able-bodied Games, she has collected three golds in the Paralympics so far.One of the most successful disabled athletes of all time, Natalie du Toit was already a promising swimmer when she lost her leg in a motorcycle accident in 2001, at just 17.“There are a lot of dark moments ,” du Toit said. “There are some days when I cry. But I try to remember that better days are ahead. You just go on .”Within a few months, she was back in the swimming pool.She still competes and still succeeds. The only difference is that she has switched to longer events —from 200m and 400m individual medley to 800m and 1,500m freestyle —to make up for her loss of speed with only one leg. But she made no adjustment to her mental outlook(精神面貌).“Going out in the water , it feels as if there’s nothing wrong with me. It doesn’t matter if you look different. You’re still the same as everybody else because you have the same dream.”She is the owner of many world records, and she also won gold when competing against able-bodiedswimmers in the 1,500m freestyle at the All Africa Games in 2007.But there is no magic recipe for success. It all comes down to hard work and determination. “She is stubborn , which is good and bad,” said her coach Karoly V on Toros. “Good for the swimming , but bad for the coach.”There is a poem that hangs on her wall that reads: The tragedy of life does not lie in not reaching your goals; The tragedy of life lies in not having goals to reach for . 21. Natalie du Toit is a vivid example that ________. A. you are what you believe B. your biggest enemy is yourselfC. results are not so important as the processD. you must set reasonable goals or you will fail22. What’s the meaning of the underlined word “embodies” in the first paragraph? A. Makes.B. Creates.C. Represents.D. Introduces.23. Which of the following is the correct order of the events that happened to Natalie du Toit? a. She won gold at the All Africa Games.b. She finished 16th in the tough 10km marathon in the Olympics.c. She adjusted herself to long events.d. A motorcycle accident disabled her. A. cdabB. dcbaC. dcabD. dacb24. In dark moments it was ________ that pushed her on. A. her coachB. her familyC. hope and faithD. her love of swimmingBTexting while driving, and speeding aren’t all that parents need to worry about when their kids are in cars: Add second-hand smoke to the list.In the first national estimate of its kind, a report from government researchers says more than 1 in 5 high school students and middle schoolers ride in cars while others are smoking. This kind of second-hand smoke exposure has been linked with breathing problems and allergy symptoms, and more restrictions are neededto此卷只装订不密封班级 姓名 准考证号 考场号 座位号prevent it, the report says.With widespread crackdowns on smoking in public, private places including homes and cars are where people encounter second-hand smoke these days. Anti-smoking advocates have zeroed in on cars because of research showing they’re potentially more dangerous than smokefilled bars and other less confined areas.The study is based on national surveys done at public and private high schools and middle schools. Students were asked how often they rode in cars while someone was smoking within the past week. The most common answer was one or two days. The smoker could mean other kids or parents. “There is no risk-free level of exposure to second-hand smoke.” the CDC says.“The car is the only source of exposure for some of these children, so if you can reduce that exposure, it’s definitely advantageous for health.” King said.The CDC advises parents not to allow smoking in their homes and cars, and says opening a car window will not protect kids from cigarette smoke inside.Measures banning smoking in cars when children are present have been enacted in a handful of states and proposed in several others. The study authors say similar bans should be adopted elsewhere.24. What does the underlined word “it” in Paragraph 2 refer to?A. Speeding.B. Riding in cars.C. Texting while driving.D. Second-hand smoke.25. The attitude of King towards banning smoking in cars was ________.A. doubtfulB. neutralC. supportiveD. disapproving26. What might be the most suitable title for the passage?A. Many Kids Smoke While Driving a CarB. More Kids Complain About Smoking in CarsC. Kids Are Exposed to Second-hand Smoke a LotD. Too Many Kids Breathe O thers’ Smoke in CarsCI was desperately nervous about becoming car-free. But eight months ago our car was hit by a passing vehicle and it was destroyed. No problem, I thought: we’ll buy another.But the insurance payout didn’t even begin to cover the costs of buying a new car—I worked out that, with the loan, we’d need plus petrol, insurance, parking permits and tax, we would make a payment as much as £600 a month.And that’s when I had my fancy idea. Why not just give up having a car at all? I live in London. We have a railway station behind our house, a tube station 10 minutes’ walk away, and a bus stop at the end of the street. A new car club had just opened in our area, and one of its shiny little red Peugeots was parked nearby. If any family in Britain could live without a car, I reasoned, then surely we were that family.But my new car-free idea, sadly, wasn’t shared by my family. My teenage daughters were horrified. What would their friends think about our family being “too poor to afford a car”?(I wasn’t that bothered what they thought, and I suggested the girls should take the same approach.)My friends, too, were astonished at our plan. What would happen if someone got seriously ill overnight and needed to go to hospital?(an ambulance) How would the children get to and from their many events?(buses and trains) People smiled as though this was another of my mad ideas, before saying they were sure I’d soon realize that a car was a necessity.Eight months on, I wonder whether we’ll ever own a car again.The idea that you “have to”own a car, especially if you live in a city, is all in the mind. I live and many other citizens do too in a place that has never been better served by public transport, and yet car ownership has never been higher. We worry about rising car costs, but we’d be better off asking something much more basic: do I really need a car? Certainly the answer is no, and I’m a lot richer because I dared to ask the question.28. The author decided to live a car-free life partly because ________.A. most families chose to go car-freeB. he was hurt in a terrible car accidentC. the cost of a new car was too muchD. the traffic jam was unbearable for him29. What is the attitude of the author’s family toward his plan?A. SupportiveB. DisapprovingC. OptimisticD. Unconcerned30. What did the author suggest his daughters do about their friends’ opinion?A. Argue against it.B. Take their advice.C. Think it over.D. Leave it alone.31. What conclusion did the author draw after the eight-month car-free life?A. Life cannot go without a car.B. Life without a car is a little bit hard.C. His life gets improved without a car.D. A car-free life does not suit everyone.DSociety tells us that we should count our blessings, focus on all that we have and feel grateful for what we’ve been given.But there is nothing wrong with “healthy discontent”.In fact, healthy discontent is what motivates us to improve ourselves and our circumstances. Without this feeling, life’s easier to stand still.I always have a certain level of discomfort. That discomfort drives me to work hard at my job. I don’t just want to remain where I am. Professionally, I want to keep getting better. Likewise, I always have a certain amount of discontent with my home. That drives me to always try to improve it by making it look better.My feelings of discontent with my job and my home don’t mean that I don’t appreciate them.It’s an incredible blessing to be able to work and be paid for one’s efforts. Similarly, if you live in a safe place, with running water, heating, and air conditioning, you are incredibly fortunate. These are not the things to be taken for granted. However, we should be striving(力争)to improve.If you happen to be good at playing the piano, you should work to continually improve your skills. The same holds true for our personal development. If you have areas in your personality that need improvement, you should work on them, too.For instance, I can be very impatient. As a result, I work hard to try to conquer that flaw(缺点) by keeping my impatience to myself. When we feel discontent with ourselves, we have to be honest with ourselves.It’s easy to make excuses for our bad behavior, but we need to face our discontent and say to ourselves, “I need to work on this.” This week, consider whether you have healthy discontent in your life. Have you become so settled in your life that you don’t see regular improvement?Do you have a character flaw that you wish you didn’t have? Don’t ignore these things. Instead, take steps to address your areas of discontent and keep improving your life every day. No matter how great we think things are going, there’s always room for improvement.32. What is stressed in Paragraph 1?A. The gratitude for what we have.B. The importance of healthy discontent.C. The lessons from society. D .The easiness of standing still in life.33. Why does the author have feelings of discontent with his job and home?A. He doesn’t treasure them.B. He is particular about them.C. He desires to improve them.D. He is difficult to satisfy.34. What does the author advise you to do if you have personal flaws?A. Leave them as they are.B. Make efforts to overcome them.C. Make excuses for them.D. Be patient with ourselves.35. How does the author support his view mostly?A. By listing some questions.B. By telling his own experiences.C. By analyzing various causes of healthy discontent.D. By showing consequences of healthy discontent.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。

AOne of the most important things in the world is friendship. In order to have friends, you have to be a friend. But how can you be a good friend at school?Listen ﹣ Listen when they are talking. Don't say anything unless they ask you a question. Sometimes it's not necessary for you to have anything to say; they just need someone to talk to about their feelings .Help them ﹣ If your friend is ever in need of something, be there to help them. You should try to put them first, but make sure you don't do everything they want you to do. Try to take an extra pencil or pen with you to classes in case they forget one. Have a little extra money in your pocket in case they forget something they need.Be there for them ﹣Be there for your friends to help make them feel better in hard times. Marilyn Monroe, a famous U .S .actor, once said, “I often make mistakes . Sometimes I am out of control, but if you can't stay with me at my worst , you are sure not to deserve to be with me at my best.” Always remember this! If you don't want to stay with your friends when they're in hard times , then you don't deserve to be with them when they're having a good time! Make plans ﹣ Try to make plans with your friends. Go shopping, go for ice cream, have a party, go toa movie and so on. Take time to know each other even better by doing something you both enjoy. By planning things together, you both can have a good time. And you'll remember these things when you're all old!21.While your friend is talking to you about his or her feelings , you should . A .give him or her some advice B .calm him or her down C .just listen unless asked D .share your feelings as well22.When we provide help for our friends, we should . A .put them before ourselves B .try to do everything for themC .change their bad habits firstD .ignore their faults23.What can we learn from Marilyn Monroe's words ? A .Life without a friend is death . B .A friend is easier lost than found . C .A man is known by his friends . D .A friend in need is a friend indeed . 【答案】21.C 22.A 23.D【解析】本文介绍了友谊是生命中最重要的东西之一,怎样让自己成为一个好朋友,要做到以下几点:学会倾听朋友的心声;在朋友需要的时候帮助朋友;平时生活中为朋友着想,尤其在他们困难时;和朋友们一起做一些计划。

A bank account.BDoes your school have any problems with discipline? What happens when students step out of line? Here are some examples of bad behaviour:◎Playing truant(missing school without permission from parents).◎Stealing, smoking, hitting, swearing(说脏话), running, kissing.◎Cheating in exams.◎Calling a teacher or another pupil bad names.◎Not doing homework.◎Not listening or not paying attention in lessons.◎Wearing unsuitable clothes.Here are some of the ways that UK school children can be punished:Exclusion:a pupil is asked to leave the school and not come back. The pupil has to find a new school or a different method of education.Suspension:a pupil cannot enter the building or attend lessons until the school has a meeting about their situation. Suspension can last from one to 45 days. The pupil is usually given work to do at home with a special teacher.Detention:a pupil is asked to stay after school and work for 30-60 minutes before they Can leave.Lines:a pupil has to write a sentence many times(e.g.100 or more) on a sheet of paper, e.g. “I must not shout in class”.Freya MacDonald, a 15-year-old pupil from Scotland, made the news when she refused to accept her school’s punishment. Her family says that she was given 11 detentions for trivial things in class and coming into school through a fire door.Freya says that repeated detentions disrupted her fight to an education under Scottish law and made it difficult for her to learn. She refused to return until the school respected her civil rights. She wants the headmaster and her teachers to sign a letter to promise this. Hundreds of schools in Scotland were told not to use detention as a punishment because of her legal action.Many UK schools now give parents a home-school contract, explaining their discipline and rules. Parents must sign this document to agree that they accept the school’s rules and discipline and that they are responsible for their chi ld’s behaviour.24. What does the text mainly talk about?A. Some examples of bad behaviour in school.B. Common discipline and rules in UK schools.C. How UK schools discipline and punish students.D. What UK parents think of school punishment.25.

Why do many UK schools sign a contract with parents?A. To make it easy for students to learn.B. To help parents know about school rules.C. To share responsibility for their child’s actions.D. To avoid their own responsibility for education.CAmong astronomers, women of color face more harassment(侵扰) than any other group, according to a new study published on Monday.The online survey of 474 astronomers and planetary scientists found that 28% of the women of color who responded reported feeling unsafe in their workplace due to their race, and that about 40% reported feeling unsafe because of their gender(性别). It also showed that 18% of women of color — as well as 12% of white women —said they’d skipped at least one class, meeting, fieldwork opportunity, or professional event because they were worried about their safety.“This isn’t something anyone can point to and say,”Kathryn Clancy, lead author of the paper, told BuzzFeed News. “These are all current issues that women of color are facing right now. They’re feeling unsafe today. They’re skipping professional events today.”“The study really reinforces(使更强烈) a lot of what the literature already tells us — that women of color are more likely to experience multiple forms of harassment and feel more strongly the impact of a very unfriendly or aggressive work environment in science,”Zuleyka Zevallos, a sociologist at Swinburne University of Technology in Australia, told BuzzFeed News.The study also outlined several approaches to addressing the problem, including creating a set of standards of behavior, diversity and cultural awareness training, and hiring many more women of color.Clancy also stressed that while professional societies could do a lot to foster culture change and make demands on their memberships, universities need to have swifter consequences for discrimination, and makeit easier for victims to discuss these issues both formally and informally. “It’s upsetting to me in a lot of ways that so many women of color haven’t been listened to in the last several d ecades,” Clancy said. “We think the science is going to be different than other workplaces — we just have to stop living in that fantasy.”28.What makes some women of color miss the fieldwork opportunity?A. Their resistance to culture change.B. The unfriendly work environment.C. Their lack of professional skills.D. Their concern about safety.29.What can be done to reduce harassment women of color face?A. Offering them more job opportunities.B. Introducing relative laws to protect their rights.C. Developing their cultural awareness in the workplace.D. Making people realize the importance of cultural diversity.30.What message is conveyed in the last paragraph?A. People need to treat things with reason.B. Women of color have no advantage in science.C. Universities should treat women of color equally.D. Gender discrimination is very common in society.31.What is the passage mainly about?A. How societies continue to fail women of color.B. Many women of color feel unsafe working in science.C. Diverse data shows people need to focus on women of color.D. Why women of color in science are few and far between.DMonkeys seem to have a way with numbers.A team of researchers trained three Rhesus monkeys to associate 26 clearly different symbols consisting of numbers and selective letters with 0-25 drops of water or juice as a reward. The researchers then tested how the monkeys combined—or added—the symbols to get the reward.Here's how Harvard Medical School scientist Margaret Livingstone, who led the team, described the experiment: In their cages the monkeys were provided with touch screens. On one part of the screen, a symbol would appear, and on the other side two symbols inside a circle were shown. For example, the number 7 would flash on one side of the screen and the other end would have 9 and 8. If the monkeys touchedthe left side of the screen they would be rewarded with seven drops of water or juice; if they went for the circle, they would be rewarded with the sum of the numbers—17 in this example.After running hundreds of tests, the researchers noted that the monkeys would go for the higher values more than half the time, indicating that they were performing a calculation, not just memorizing the value of each combination.When the team examined the results of the experiment more closely, they noticed that the monkeys tended to underestimate(低估) a sum compared with a single symbol when the two were close in value—sometimes choosing, for example, a 13 over the sum of 8 and 6. The underestimation was systematic: When adding two numbers, the monkeys always paid attention to the larger of the two, and then added only a fraction(小部分) of the smaller number to it.“This indicates that there is a certain way quantity is represented in their brains,” Dr. Livingstone says. “But in this experiment what they're doing is paying more attention to the big number than the little one.”32. What did the researchers do to the monkeys before testing them?A. They fed them.B. They named them.C. They trained them.D. They measured them.33. How did the monkeys get their reward in the experiment?A. By drawing a circle.B. By touching a screen.C. By watching videos.D. By mixing two drinks.34. What did Livingstone's team find about the monkeys?A. They could perform basic addition.B. They could understand simple words.C. They could memorize numbers easily.D. They could hold their attention for long.35. In which section of a newspaper may this text appear?A. Entertainment.B. Health.C. Education.D. Science.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。

Penguins. The attraction of Antarctica. This cold,southernmost continent is an increasingly popular tourist destination. Its vast landscape of ice and snow,as well as its wildlife population,attracts nature-loving vacationers and some tourists who enjoy activities like cross-country skiing. Others simply float through the area on board a cruise (乘船游览). Whatever the reason people come to Antarctica,they're coming. And it's causing some controversy(争论).But before we get into that,let's look at some facts about Antarctica.Antarctica is a landmass located around the South Pole and it has more ice than any other place on Earth. In fact,99. 5 percent of its landmass is covered with ice. During arctic winter,the ice sheet covering the continent gets even bigger. Its shape is roughly round,with one arm reaching out toward South America. That is why many trips to Antarctica are via Argentina.Even during its warmest period,Antarctica's temperatures mostly stay below freezing. During the winter,they can drop to as low as minus 90 degrees Fahrenheit. The continent has little rain and its snow is dry and powdery(粉末状的).Antarctica wasn't even formally explored until the 19th century. Today,though,many scientists and researchers call Antarctica their temporary home,living in special facilities when they study the ecosystem and native life.Since Antarctica has no human inhabitants,many nations have laid claim to it. However,the terms of the Antarctic Treaty state that the continent is reserved purely for scientific research. This also keeps Antarctica a war-free and nuclear-free zone. Currently,53 parties have signed the treaty.For those visitors who aren't conducting scientific research on the continent,what to see and do in this icy land?28.The underlined word "that" in Paragraph 2 refers to__________A.the landscape of ice and snowB.the wildlife populationC.the attraction of AntarcticaD.some controversy29.People come to Antarctica through Argentina because __________A.the distance is the shortest from Antarctica to ArgentinaB.Argentina has the best harbor to shelter shipsC.Argentina is far away from AntarcticaD.people can find the best equipment in Argentina for travelling30.It can be inferred from the fourth paragraph that __________A.the snow on Antarctica can easily form iceB.Antarctica is naturally unsuitable for humans and animalsC.people try to build lasting buildings on AntarcticaD.in the 19th century Antarctica began to be discovered31.What might be the most suitable title for the passage?A.Should you be allowed to live in Antarctica?B.Are you a traveler dreaming for Antarctica?C.Do you have the courage to travel in Antarctica?D.Can you travel in Antarctica?DSome houses are designed to be smart. Others have smart designs. An example of the second type of house won an Award of Excellence from the American Institute of Architects.Located on the shore of Sullivan’s Island off the coast of South Carolina, the award-winning cube-shaped beach house was built to replace one smashed to pieces by Hurricane(飓风)Hugo 10 years ago. Before Hugo, many new houses built along South Carolina’s shoreline were poorly constructed, and enforcement of building rules wasn’t strict, according to architect Ray Huff, who created the cleverly-designed beach house. Soon after Hugo, all new shoreline houses are required to meet stricter, better-enforced rules. The new beach house on Sullivan’s Island should be able to with stand a Level 3 hurricane with peak winds of 179 to 209 kilometers per hour.At first sight, the house on Su llivan’s Island looks anything but hurricane-proof. Its redwood shell makes it resemble “a large party lantern (灯笼)” at night, according to one observer. But looks can be misleading. The house’s wooden frame is reinforced with long steel rods to give it extra strength.To further protect the house from hurricane damage. Huff raised it 2.7 meters off the ground on timber pilings-long, slim wood pieces anchored deep in the sand. Pilings might appear insecure, but they are strong enough to support the weight of the house. They also raise the house above storm waves. The pilings allow the waves to run under the house instead of running into it. ‘These wave s come ashore at terrible speeds and cause most of the damage done to beach-front buildings,” said Huff.Huff designed the timber pilings to be partially hidden by the house’s ground-to-roof shell. “The shell masks the p ilings so that the house doesn’t look like it’s standing with its pant legs (裤腿) pulled up,” said Huff. In the event of a storm, the shell should break apart and let the waves rush under the house, the architect explained.32.After the Hurricane Hugo, new houses built along South Carolina’s shore line are required .A.to be easily reinforced B.to meet stricter building standardsC.to look smarter in design D.to be designed in the shape of cubes33.Why is the award-winning beach house strong and hurricane-proof?A.It is in the shape of a shell. B.It is made of redwood.C.It is strengthened by steel rods. D.It is built with timber and concrete.34.What’s the purpose of Huff raising the house 2.7 meters off the ground on timber pilings?A.To anchor stronger pilings deep in the sand.B.To prevent water from rushing into the house.C.To withstand peak winds of about 200 km/hr. D.To make the house look more hurricane-proof.35.According the last paragraph, the main function of the shell is .A.to give the house a better appearanceB.to strengthen the pilings of the houseC.to protect the wooden frame of the houseD.to slow down the speed of the big waves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。
