She was known around theworld for using poetry to increase understanding about black culture in America.Her poems described conditions among the poor, racial inequality and drug use in theblack community. She also wrote poems about the struggles of black women. But her skillwas more than her ability to write about struggling black people. She was an expert atthe language of poetry. She combined traditional European poetry styles with the African American experience.In her early poetry, Gwendolyn Brooks wrote about the South Side of Chicago. The South Side of Chicago is where many back people live. In her poems, the South Side is calledBronzeville. It was A Street in Bronzeville that gained the attention of literary experts in 1945. Critics praised her poetic skill and her powerful descriptions of the blackexperience during the time. The Bronzeville poems were her first published collection.In 1950, Gwendolyn Brooks became the first African American to win the Pulitzer Prize for Poetry. She won the prize for her second book of poems called Annie Allen. Annie Allen is a collection of poetry about the life of a Bronzeville girl as a daughter, a wife andmother. She experiences loneliness, loss, death and being poor. Ms. Brooks said thatwinning the prize changed her life.Her next work was a novel written in 1953 called Maud Martha, Maud Martha receivedlittle notice when it was first published. But now it is considered an important work bysome c ritics. Its main ideas about the difficult life of many w omen a re popular among f emale writers today.In some of her poems, Gwendolyn Brooks described how what people see in life is affected by who they are. One example is this poem, Corners on the Curing Sky.By the end of the 1960s, Gwendolyn Brooks's poetry expanded from the everyday experiences of people in Bronzeville. She wrote about a wider world and dealt with important political issues.24.What does the text mainly talk about?A. The life of Gwendolyn Brooks.B. The understanding about black culture.C. The poems of Gwendolyn Brooks.D. The struggles of black women.25. What can we learn about Gwendolyn Brooks from the second paragraph?A. She mainly wrote about the struggles of black women.B. Her poems were mainly about the African experienceC. Her writing skills were a little worse than her ability.D. She was good at using the language of poetry26. How does the author mainly develop the passage?A. By providing examples.B. By using statistics.C. By comparing opinions.D. By describing her experiences.27. What would the author most probably talk about in the next part?A. The difficulties Gwendolyn Brooks would meet.B. The poems related to political issues.C. The awards Gwendolyn Brooks gained.D. The racial inequality the black had toface.CMost of us struggle through the time it takes to get a cup of coffee to our lips onceour alarms go off. Luckily, this coffee-brewing alarm clock could make those few strugglingminutes practically disappear.An alarm clock that brews a fresh pot of coffee as soon as you wake up actually exists, and you can buy it right now. Thanks to the Barisieur, your morning time will never bethe same.Here’s how it works: Before you go to bed, fill the glass container with water andpour ground coffee into the filter (过滤器). Not a black coffee drinker?Not to worry --- special drawers keep your cream cold and store your sugar, too.Then, just set your alarm and go to sleep. This machine will take care of the rest.A few minutes before your alarm goes off next morning, the Barisieur will begin tobrew your coffee. And voila! A hot cup of coffee is waiting for you when your alarm ringsand you open your eyes. You won’t even have to leave your bed.London designer Joshua Renouf designed this invention himself, raising over $500,000 through donations on IndieGoGo. Coffee lovers should act fast and put in a pre-order onthe website now, paying just $300. Otherwise, you have to wait until it hits stores andpay $420.Owning one of these clocks will be totally worth it. Nothing says “seize the day” quite like waking up to a pot of freshly brewed coffee, after all. Also, the machine isn’t limited to making coffee only in the morning. You can go out and return home with a hotcup of coffee waiting for you.28. Why does the author mention the struggle?A. To show making coffee is challenging.B. To show coffee can make us feel better.C. To show the coffee-brewing alarm clock is great.D. To show it is difficult to get up early in the morning.29. What does the underlined word “it” in Paragraph 3 refer to?A. The Barisieur.B. The morning time.C. A hot cup of coffee.D. The glass container.30. What’s the benefit of pre-ordering the clock on the website now?A. You can get one much earlier.B. You can get one at a great discount.C. You can get donations from its designer.D. You may have a chance to meet Joshua Renouf.31. What is the author’s purpose in writing the text?A. To tell us how to make coffee easily.B. To advertise a new product in a store.C. To recommend a special kind of alarm clock.D. To compare traditional alarm clocks and new ones.DAsk any readers who their favorite fictional character in a novel is and you’ll likely get a detailed explanation about the beloved character that they admire. It might evensound like they’re talking about a person they know.In a study, researchers looked at the brains of a group of people over nine days. Half of the group read the novel Pompeii, and half didn’t. After examining, researchers found the readers’ brains showed heightened connectivity (连通性) in some a reas. This is likely because the brain imagines the movement and emotions of the character they read about inthe book. Even though the participants were then asked not to read the novel, they keptthis heightened connectivity. We call that a “shadow activity”, a lmost like a muscle memory. So even after you’ve finished a book, your brain keeps those benefits for sometime afterwards.It has been suggested that people who read a lot of fiction become more empathic (移情作用的), because fiction is a simulation (模仿) of social experiences, in which people practice and improve their interpersonal skills. The people who not only read fiction,but felt a high level of “emotional transportation” while reading --- as compared to people who weren’t taken by the story or who read non-fiction---displayed higher levels of empathy when tested. Increase of empathy is important for people because empathy ispositively related to creativity, performance at work and cooperative behaviors.Besides, reading improves “Theory of Mind”. It is “the ability to understand thatothers have mental states that are different from one’s own.” Of various activities,reading novels has been found to improve this ability, while watching television programs or movies has been found to do just the opposite --- a reduced understanding of othersand weaker cognitive (认知的) development overall.Maybe we should put more of a priority on novel-reading. And many r eaders believe that reading a novel is far better and more meaningful than watching any movie. As David Kiddof the New School study said, “Fiction is not just a simulator of a social experience;it is a social experience.” 32. What is implied in the Paragraph 2?A. Reading novels is just a waste of time.B. Reading novels can help people become happy.C. Reading novels increases connectivity in our brain.D. Reading novels helps enhance our memory greatly.33. What do we know about novel readers from Paragraph 3?A. They tend to be emotional in social experiences.B. They understand the emotions of people better.C. They like to talk about their favorite characters.D. They are more sensitive to everything.34. What’s the effect of watching TV or movies?A. It distinguishes your views from those of others.B. It contributes to your cognitive development.C. It reduces your empathy for others a lot.D. It changes your overall mental states.35. What does the underlined word “priority” in the last paragraph mean?A. Preference.B. Authority.C. Exposure.D. Evaluation.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。

AFour things that you can't miss in Macao.Macao Tower AJ Hackett Bungee JumpThe Macao Tower, 338 meters tall, is the world's 10th highest tower, with a variety of activities, such as gambling, eating and entertainment. One of the acclaimed activities is the bungee jump. The AJ Hackett Macao Tower Bungee Jump is 233 meters high, making it the highest commercial bungee jump in the world. Raise your arms and off you go! If you are not daring enough to jump that height, you can try the skywalk on the 57th floor ---it's still remarkable.Grabbing a traditional Portuguese dinnerMacao was colonized by Portugal before 1999. As a result, Portuguese culture is deeply immersed into many comers of Macao. Many Portuguese settled and opened Portuguese restaurants in the special administrative region, but the flavor is more adaptable to Chinese people. Marking at the Ruins of St. PaulThe Ruins of St. Paul is the signature landmark of Macao. The ruins consist of the St.Paul'sCollege and the Church of St. Paul, built in 1583. However, after three intense fires in 1595, 1601 and 1835, the church was seriously damaged. It is beyond belief that after the vigorous cycles of rebuilding and fires, the huge surface and the front stairway remain unburned.Visiting a museumMacao, as a tiny city with only an area of 30.5 square kilometers, has 23 eye-catching museums. Due to its unique history, both Eastern and Western historical sites can be found. Many of them are preserved for cultural heritage, tourist spots or museums, such as the Grand Prix Museum, Maritime Museum and Wine Museum.1. Which activity will be popular with adventurous visitors?A. Going Bungee Jumping.B. Grabbing a traditional Portuguese dinner.C. Marking at the Ruins of St. Paul.D. Visiting a museum.2. What is incredible about the Ruins of St. Paul?A. It has a unique culture.B. It serves as a symbol of Macao.C. It partly stays undamaged after fierce fires.D. It is a combination of a college and a church.3. What do "'Grabbing a traditional Portuguese dinner" and "Visiting a museum" have in common?A. Taking a selfie in it.B. Finding historical sites.C. Enjoying a breathtaking experience.D. Feeling both eastern and western cultures.BI was seven when I first questioned my imagination. I remember watching the first Harry Potter film and my friend was complaining that the characters weren't how she imagined them to be. I couldn't understand what she meant because, in my mind, they had never been images at all, just concepts. When l shut my eyes, I see nothing. I have no visual imagination.I thought everyone's minds worked this way until about two years ago, when I came acrossatext about aphantasia, a condition where you lack a functioning mind's eye. I was 23, and it blew my mind to learn that others could visualize things. It was clear I had aphantasia, too, and a lot of things started to make more sense. For me, imagination had always been impossible. If someone asked me to close my eyes and picture myself by the sea, I would see nothing.I am currently studying for a PhD in biology at college. A good little test for me is drawing. I can copy things almost like for like if they are in front of me, but if I were to draw from my imagination it would look terrible. It doesn't mean you cannot be creative; you just have to adapt. Regardless of how many times I read a technique, it didn't make sense. But when I came to do it in the lab, I understood it immediately. If you have a visual imagination, you can look at a diagram and it triggers your memory; but I learn by repetition or physically doing something.I'd love to experience life with a mind's eye. I think it'd be cool and beneficial to imagine things so vividly. If you offered me a day with a visual imagination, I'd be excited. I think it'd be so brilliant that I wouldn't want to give it back.4. After watching the first Harry Potter film, the author _____ .A. misunderstood what her friend saidB. became a huge fan of the Harry Potter filmC. found it impossible to picture its characters in her mindD. complained its characters different from what she imagined5. How did the author know she had aphantasia?A. Her friend told her the fact.B. She read about aphantasia.C. She had a medical examination.D. Her life experience made it clear.6. What can we learn about the author?A. She lacks creativity.B. She always draws terribly.C. She learns by hands-on practice.D. She gets benefit from techniques.7. What is the author's attitude towards her disability?A. Uncertain.B. Uncaring.C. Upset.D. Positive.CFor years, the U.S. has experienced a shortage of registered nurses. The Bureau of Labor Statistics projects that while the number of nurses will increase by 19 percent by 2022, demand will grow faster than supply, and that there will be over one million unfilled nursing jobs by then.So what's the solution? Robots.Japan is ahead of the curve when it comes to this trend. Toyohashi University of Technology has developed Terapio, a robotic medical cart that can make hospital rounds, deliver medications and other items. It follows a specific individual, such as a doctor or nurse, who can use it to record and access patient data. This type of robot will likely be one of the first to be implemented in hospitals because ithas fairly minimal patient contact.A robot's appearance affects its ability to successfully interact with humans, which is why the RIKEN-TRI Collaboration Center for Human-Interactive Robot Research decided to develop a robotic nurse called Actroid F. It is so human-like that some patients may not know the difference. This conversational robot companion has cameras in its eyes, which allow it to track patients and use appropriate facial expressions and body language in its interactions. During a month-long hospital trial, researchers asked 70 patients how they felt being around the robot and "only three or four said they didn't like having it around."It's important to note that robotic nurses don't decide courses of treatment or make diagnoses, though robot doctors and surgeons may not be far off. Instead, they perform routine and laborious tasks, freeing nurses up to attend to patients with immediate needs. This is one industry where it seems the interaction of robots will lead to collaboration, not replacement.8. What does the author say about Japan?A. It ranks top in future robotics technology.B. It takes the lead in offering robotic nursing.C. It is in desperate need of registered nurses.D. It provides the best medication for the elderly.9. Which of the following best explains “implemented'' underlined in Paragraph 3?A. Cancelled.B. Constructed.C. Improved.D. Applied.10. What do we know about the robot Actroid F?A. It has no difference from a human nurse.B. It gets favorable remarks from all the patients.C. It interacts with patients like a human companion.D. It uses body language even more effectively than words.11. What can be inferred from the last paragraph?A. Cooperation will not be replaced.B. Nurses will still play their roles.C. The robotics industry will be promising.D. Robots can meet patients' immediate needs.DWhy should most of us hate spiders when we know deeply how much good they do? Is it because they somehow seem so alien? After all, what other land creatures on earth have eight legs? What other creatures spin silk webs in which to catch and wrap their prey to preserve it for the future, much as we put food in the fridge to eat later? I do not personally suffer from arachnophobia, the name given to an abnormal fear of spiders, but I can't say that I like the little beasts. However, some peopledo, and they actually keep them as pets!There is a wide variety of spiders in the world. In fact it has been estimated that there are some 35,000 species——from little "money spiders" that live in your back garden, to the "black widow spider", and the “tarantula” ,the spider that is now sometimes kept as a pet.A tarantula can be any one of a large hairy spiders family and there are about 800 species of them. While experts can tell the difference between species at a glance, most are usually described in reference books as “rather slowly" with “a strong bite which may be poisonous”. They are covered with hairs which can cause a rash (皮疹)if they are handled.No one has calculated the number of human deaths caused by a bite from a tarantula perhaps because it has never happened, or happened so rarely, and indeed a tarantula will do no harm to anyone if handled correctly. Their disgusting image cannot belie their gentle nature but experts tell us not to handle a tarantula without expert advice.Tarantulas are popular as pets and it requires very little space to maintain them in excellent condition. They should be kept singly in a glass container, which need not be very large but should have a layer of stones in the bottom. They feed on insects, and while young tarantulas eat twice a week, adults will often eat no more than once every 10 days.You might like the idea of keeping a tarantula, but personally I am content with just watching them at a distance.12. According to the text, why do most people dislike spiders?A. They are abnormal beasts.B. They take food from fridges.C. They have unpleasant appearance.D. They make people suffer from arachnophobia.13. What do we know about the tarantula?A. It must be kept in groups.B. It feeds on poisonous insects.C. It doesn't belong to hairy spiders.D. It has mild nature if handled properly.14. What does the underlined word “it” in Paragraph 4 refer to?A. The death caused by a tarantula.B. The number of human deaths.C. The bite from a tarantula.D. The rash caused by hairs.15. What's the best title for the text?A. Never judge a book by its cover.B. Nothing seek, nothing find.C. No sweet without sweat.D. Once bitten, twice shy.第二节(共5小题;每小题2.5分,满分12.5分)阅读下面短文,从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。

第一部分阅读(共两节,满分50分)第一节(共15小题;每小题2.5分,满分37.5分)阅读下列短文,从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。
AWith over 2.4 million visitors every year, Cinque Terre is one of the most-visited regions in Italy. Cinque Terreis truly special. The five candy-colored fishing villages of Riomaggiore, Manarola, Comiglia, Vemazza, and Monterosso al Mare are built into cliffs over the clean and brightly-shining Ligurian Sea. Whether you’re visiting the region for a few days or a few weeks, these are the experiences you should add to your trip pleasure.★Take a scenic hike.It’s easy to visit each of the attractive villages on foot. The most popular hike is the coastal path Sentiero Azzuro.It links all five villages and offers extremely beautiful scenery of the sea, architecture and vineyards(葡萄园). It takes about six hours to go across, with short breaks, but most people are going to stop in the villages for food and swimming.★Eat seafood in a cone(锥形).Dessert lovers might think that Italian ice-cream is the best thing to be served in a cone but make room for seafood cones as well. Thanks to its coastal location, Cinque Terre is full of seafood restaurants.★Get on a boat.If the weather cooperates, take the time to get out on the water. The villages look very beautiful from a boat. The cheapest and easiest way is to jump on the public ferry from one of the villages to the next, but these boats are often crowded. It’s far more relaxing to take a private cruise, which departs from the docks in Riomaggiore, Manarola, Vemazza, and Monterosso al Mare.★Take the train.Cinque Terre’s train system is one of the most scenic in Europe. The high-speed train runs through each of thefive villages every 20 minutes or so. And the whole line is directly on the coast, offering lovely views of the Ligurian Sea and rocky cliffs.1. What is special about the five candy-colored fishing villages?A. Their special location.B. Their long history.C. Their delicious foods.D. Their friendly villagers.2. What is the favorite food for the hikers in the five villages?A. Italian noodles.B. Italian ice-cream.C. Italian wines.D. Seafood cones.3. What is the best way to enjoy the beautiful scenery and delicious food?A. Taking a private ferry to the villages.B. Walking with short breaks on the coast.C. Taking a scenic hike along the coastal path.D. Taking the train running through the villages.BIt can be a real struggle trying to learn a new language. I had always enjoyed learning languages in school, but only recently did I start learning German. I found that I could understand and learn individual words easily, but when it came to literature, I really struggled. That was when my tutor at university suggested reading some children’s books printed in the target language.At first, I felt a bit silly going on a hunt for a book designed for someone half my age, but then I realized thateveryone has to start somewhere. As children, we are given these basic texts to familiarize our brains with certain vocabulary and writing structures, and from there, we can learn and develop. I started with books which are taught to us as children in the UK. I managed to find Oliver Twist by Charles Dickens and James and the Giant Peach by Roald Dahl.The beauty of reading books that were introduced to you as a child is that you are already familiar with the plot.As a result, you can work out some of the definitions of words with your prior knowledge of the story. At first, I used to read with the book in one hand and a dictionary in the other, but this method did not work well for me. The method I would recommend is to read a chapter of your chosen children’s book and at the end of that chapter, highlight the words you do not know and then look up the definitions. If you can wait a bit before you use a dictionary, you may be surprised what you can get merely from the context of the sentence in the story. Additionally, a lot of children’s books have pictures which may give you a clue as to what or to whom the passage is referring.4. Why was the author advised to read children’s books?A. She was weak in reading great works.B. She was slow to learn language.C. She liked children’s literature.D. She couldn’t remember any words.5. What can be got from children’s books according to the passage?A. V ocabulary and listening skills.B. Learning methods.C. Words and structures.D. Designing skills.6. What surprised the author while reading children’s books?A. Grasping the context from the pictures.B. Looking up the definitions of words from a dictionary.C. Getting familiar with the plots of the story.D. Understanding the words simply from the context.7. What can be the best title of the passage?A. Reading Children’s BooksB. The Way of Learning LanguagesC. The Method of Using DictionaryD. My Good Reading HabitsCWith self-driving vehicle technology rapidly advancing, many companies are turning to autonomous robots forthe final leg of the delivery process, from the store or local distribution center to the customer. The latest to join the trend is e-commerce giant Amazon. Following a successful eight-month test run in SnohomishCounty, Washington, the company’s Scout robots have been making the rounds of Irvine, California, since August 6, 2019.The six-wheeled Scout is about the size of a large cooler with the capacity to carry small or medium-sized packages. The battery-powered vehicle, which moves at a regular walking pace, has been programmed to avoid pedestrians, animals, and unexpected obstacles, such as garbage cans. Its powerful sensors can also detect the movement of a car backing out of a driveway.To accelerate Scout’s development and bring it nationwide sooner, the company has created several detailed virtual maps of American suburbs and conducted trial deliveries to homes there.Though Amazon has not shown how Scout ensures the delivery is picked up by the right person, it most likelyrequires the customer to apply a unique code, texted to them prior to the delivery, to unlock the store box. Also unclear is the number of deliveries Scout can complete before its battery needs to be recharged. Though the initial tests are being conducted with a human for company, the robot will be autonomous in the future. Its location, however, will be tracked at all times-if someone attempts to steal Scout, Amazon employees will be instantly sensed.However, the eco-friendly robots are unable to climb stairs or open gates, which means that they can only reachconsumers who live on the ground level. Additionally, the robots are unable to leave packages at the front door if the customers are not home. Whether these problems get resolved remains to be seen. For now, it appears that humans will still be needed to achieve the ever-growing demand for home and office deliveries.8.What are many companies developing autonomous robots for?A. Final tests.B. The so-called last mile.C. Robots’ safety.D. Delivery speed.9.What can we infer about Scout from paragraph 2?A. It looks like a cooler.B. It adjusts its speed accordingly.C. Its sensors play a key role.D. It will be widely used soon.10.What does the underlined phrase "prior to" in paragraph 4 mean?A. beforeB. afterC. in front ofD. due to11.From which is the text probably taken?A. A biology textbook.B. A health magazine.C. A newspaper.D. A travel brochure.DWood has many great characteristics that make it the perfect building material. It is cheap, durable(耐用的), easily available, and most importantly, environmentally sustainable. The one thing it is not, is transparent(透明的).Now thanks to a team of scientists at Stockholm’s KTH Royal Institute of Technology, the material may even beable to add that feature to its already impressive list.Lead researcher Dr. Lars Berglund said he was inspired to create the transparent wood after learning how Japanese researchers had developed a see-through paper for use in flexible display screens for electronic devices.The team began by pulling out the wood’s lignin (木质素). The lignin-free wood was then dipped into a polymer(聚合物) and baked at a temperature of 158F for four hours. The result was a hybrid product that was not only stronger and lighter than the original wood but also, almost transparent. The researchers were able to adjust the level of transparency by varying the amount of the polymer injected and also by changing the thickness of the wood.While scientists have previously created a see-through wood for small-scale applications like computer chips,the transparent wood is the first one being considered for large scale applications. The researchers, who revealed their findings in Biomacromolecules on April 11, picture using the transparent wood in buildings to allow for more natural light, or to create windows that let in the desired amount of light without sacrificing privacy.Wood that allows light to pass through could lead to a brighter future for homes and buildings. Berglund also thinks the wood could play a significant role in the design of solar panels. The semi-transparent material would be able to keep light longer and give it more time to interact with the conductor, thus resulting in better solar efficiency.Additionally, substituting the currently used glass with this new product would help solar energy manufacturersimprove their carbon footprint and lower the cost. They are now experimenting with ways to scale up the manufacturing process so that the transparent material is cost-effective to make and easy to use.12. What does the underlined part "that feature" in Paragraph 1 refer to?A. Cheapness.B. Durability.C. Sustainability.D. Transparency.13. Which of the following is not the process in which the transparent wood is made?A. Dip the wood into a polymer.B. Reduce the amount of the polymer.C. Make the wood lignin-free.D. Bake the wood for some time.14. What’s the purpose of using the transparent wood in buildings?A. To protect privacy.B. To scale out applications.C. To get more natural light.D. To observe more clearly.15. What is the last paragraph mainly about?A. The bright future of the transparent wood.B. The wood’s role in the design of solar panels.C. The disadvantages of the currently used glass.D. Solar energy manufacturers’ carbon footprint.第二节(共5小题:每小题2.5分,满分12.5分)阅读下面短文,从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。

He recently completed his bachelor's degree(学士学位) which he started in1995.Montefiore left university in 1996 and tried to tell himself that a degree wasn't necessary for personal success. But it remained unfinished businessuntil he made the decision to return in 2018 at the age 42. At that time, his job development stalled, so he made up his mind to go back to school in order to improve himself and work well in future.The second time around, Montefiore never missed a class and always sat in the front row. He found many courses invaluable and he received the Award of Excellence twice. He found support services played an important role in his successful return. He said, “I hadn't written a paper for years, so I found the college writing centre to be of great use. Before I handed in a paper, they would give me feedback, which was really great. The university has so much built in to help students succeed and I'm so thankful for that.” But he also met difficulties this time. As a student much older than others, he found it harder to make friends with classmates.However, no matter what had happened before, he finally got his bachelor's degree. He said, “After all these years, I had thought it wouldn't mean anything, but it means a lot. I totally understand the value of education now. It's not necessarily the value that other people see in it, but the value it gives me as a person, for my confidence and my self-esteem. It also helps me prepare well before I re-enter the workplace.”4. Why was Montefiore's graduation unusual?A. He had achieved personal success before.B. He understood the importance of a degree.C. He finished his degree at a much older age.D. He began his university study at a young age.5. What does the underlined word "stalled" in paragraph 2 probably mean?A. Stopped.B. Started.C. Survived.D. Succeeded.6. What can we learn about Montefiore from the third paragraph?A. He got good grades very easily.B. He took his study seriously this timeC. He was thankful for his classmates' helpD. He had difficulty using support services.7. What did Montefiore learn from his experience?A. Confidence is important in one's life.B. Others' opinions on education matter a lot.C. Higher education is a must for personal success.D. Education makes one feel better about himself.CIt was once a shoreline buried by enough garbage to make it invisible (看不见的), thus, given the unfortunate nickname "toilet bowl" . Now the Philippines' Manila Bay beach is totally different, compared with a few months ago. It happened so suddenly and extremely that it brought tears to the eyes of the local people.The cleanup started on 27 January, when 5, 000 volunteers descended on Manila Bay to remove over 45 tons (公吨) of garbage, marking the beginning of a nation-wide environmental campaign. But some two months before this great movement began, a quiet revolution was already underway.During the first week of December 2018, Brooklyn- based Bounties Network collectedthree tons of garbage from Manila Bay aver two days through a project that paid a small group of people, mostly fishermen, with a digital currency (数字货币) based on the Ethereum system.For the mostly non-bank -using Filipino fishermen, this was a first-ever experience with a digital currency. It's one that proves decisive in enabling poor communities around the world to take up arms in the fight against humanity's waste.There are signs that this recycling-for-digital payment industry may be just about to take off. Earlier in September 2018, Plastic Bank, a Vancouver -based company powered by IBM technology, also started a similar project. They set up a project in Naga, a town in southern Luzon, the country's largest island, building a collection point to let people exchange plastic and recyclable materials for digital payouts through a system.That both these pioneers have chosen the Philippines as their first location is not surprising considering the country's contribution to ocean waste. A Wall Street Journal study in 2015 revealed that the Philippines make the third-largest amount of plastic waste into global oceans.8. Why did people call Manila Bay beach“toilet bowl” ?A. It looked like a huge bowl.B. There were plenty of toilets.C. It was covered by rubbish.D. People loved the toilets here.9. What does the underlined phrase“descended on”in paragraph 2 mean?A. Completely depended on.B. Suddenly arrived at.C. Occasionally decreased to.D. Gradually disappeared from.10. What made poor communities willing to fight against waste?A. The benefits to their homeland.B. The desire to make a difference.C. The chance to escape ocean pollution.D. The experience with a digital currency.11. What is the best title for the text?A. Online system helps endocean pollution.B. Manila Bay beach is suddenly removed.C. Plastic Bank is powerful in recycling waste.D. Philippines make a great amount of waste.DDid you know people who live in different parts ofChinahave different habits and preferences? For example, people from southernChinaprefer to eat vegetables, while people from northChinalike to eat meat. According to a new study in a journal, gene variations (变异) might be responsible for these differences. Researchers fromChina’s BGI collected genetic information from 141,431 Chinese women, who came from 31 provinces and consisted of 36 ethnic minority groups.They found that natural selection has played an important role in the ways that people living in different regions of China have developed, affecting their food preferences, immunities (免疫力) to illness and physical features.A variation of the gene FADS2 is more commonly found in northern people. It helps people metabolize (新陈代谢) fatty acids, which suggests a diet that is rich in flesh. This is due to climate differences.Northern Chinais at a higher latitude. This weather is difficult to grow vegetables in. Therefore, northerners tend to eat more meat.The study also found differences in the immune systems of both groups. Most people in southernChinacarry the gene CR1, which protects against malaria. Malaria was once quite common in southernChina. In order to survive, the genes of people in the south evolved to fight against this disease. However, people in the south are also more sensitive to certain illnesses, as they lack the genes to stop them.Genes can also cause physical differences between northerners and southerners. Most northerners have theABCC11 gene, which causes dry earwax, less body smell and fewer sweats. These physical differences are also more beneficial to living in cold environments. Southerners are less likely to have this gene, as it did not develop in their population.12. What did the new study focus on?A. Regions.B. Eating habits.C. Gene variations.D. Ethnic minority groups.13. What is the main function of the gene FADS2?A. It helps store fat.B. It helps digest meat.C. It helps gain weight.D. It helps treat an illness.14. According to the study, most northerners ________.A. sweat less frequentlyB. are immune to malariaC. prefer vegetables to meatD. are more sensitive to climates15. How many differences did the study find related to genes?A. Two.B. Three.C. Four.D. Five.第二节(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)阅读下面短文,从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。

Suddenly it’s conditional on such things as excitement, love and popularity. I 3.________still recall the excitement of being invited to dance with the most attractive boy at the school party.In adulthood the things that bring deep joy—love, marriage, birth—also bring responsibility and the risk of loss. For adults, happiness is plicated.My definition of happiness is “the capacity for enjoyment”. The4.________we can enjoy what we have, the happier we are. It’s easy to over look the pleasure we get from the pany of friends, the freedom to live where we please, and even good health.I experienced my little moments of pleasure yesterday.

I don’t think that my grandmother, who raised 14 children, had much of either.She did have a network of close friends and family, and maybe this is what satisfied her.We, 7. ________, with so many choices and such pressure to succeed in every area, have turne d happiness into one more thing we’ve got to have. We’re so self-conscious about our “right” to it that it’s making us miserable. So we chase it and equal it with wealth and success, without noticing that the people who have those things aren’t necessarily happier.Happiness isn’t about what happens to us—it’s about how we see what happens to us. It’s the skillful way of finding a positive for every negative.

Some capable physicians and research workers—though their small number is reducing even further—are less sure of the effect of cigarette smoking 12.________ health.

Smokers who develop cancer or lung diseases, they say, may also, by coincidence, live in industrial areas, or eat more canned food.Gradually, however, research is isolating all other possible factors and proving them to be statistically irrelevant. While15.________tobacco smoking affects life expectancy and health, cigarette smoking appears to have a much greater effect than cigar or pipe smoking.

Well, one man, Eugene Bostick, decided that when he retired, he would devote the rest of his life to helping homeless dogs feel loved.Eugene Bostick was fortunate enough to be able to retire at the ripe age of 65 after working his entire life on his farm. His farm was located at the end of a dead-end street, and he noticed that people would, unfortunately, abandon their dogs on the farm and race off.Eugene refused to see these pets suffer, and he quickly picked up these abandoned dogs, giving them food and taking them to the vet (兽医) to make sure they were spayed and neutered (节育). Eugene’s farm ha s all kinds of animals, such as horses and goats, so these dogs have plenty of other animals to play with.Over the last 20 years, Eugene has shown his kindness by taking on these abandoned pets, but he also saw the chance to offer them a bit of adventure. After spotting a neighbor transporting rocks behind his tractor using barrels, he realized he could do the same for his dogs. Eugene got to work to make his own train, and made sure to add some pleasant pillows so his furry friends could travel in comfort. The dogs quickly got on the train, and together, they spent hours traveling around town and through the forests nearby.After they were spotted around town, one neighbor took a picture of Eugene that went viral, and a GoFundMe page was started that gaine d plenty of donations. Eugene was amazed by everyone’s generosity, and was happy to see others help these abandoned animals feel loved. Eugene will continue to care for his dogs, and we should all follow his lead!4. What can we learn from the passage?A. Eugene wished to retire ahead of time to care for homeless dogs.B. People would race to the farm to pick up homeless dogs.C. Eugene and the vet took in many abandoned dogs together.D. Eugene’s idea for the barrel train was inspired from his neighbor.5. What’s people’s attitude to Eugene’s act?A. Supportive.B. Unconcerned.C. Doubtful.D. Astonished.英语试题第3页(共10页)6. Which words can be used to describe Eugene?A. Serious and hardworking.B. Caring and adventurous.C. Rich and generous.D. Playful and Childish.7. What can be the best title for this passage?A. A retired man’s lifeB. Lucky dogsC. Train for homeless dogsD. How to help homeless dogsCIf the three Rs (reduce, reuse and recycle) is a guideline to save the planet, garbage-sorting is where the efforts start. Since May 1, Beijing has started to carry out mandatory (法定的) garbage-sorting in new efforts to better protect the environment. Under the new regulation, residents are required to classify household waste into four categories: kitchen, recyclable, hazardous and other waste. People who fail to sort their garbage properly can be fined from 50 to 200 yuan, reported Xinhua.Some residential communities in Beijing have introduced rewards to encourage residents to sort their garbage. According to Xinhua, residents can earn points by classifying their domestic waste correctly and then exchange the points they accumulate for daily necessities such as soap.Garbage sorting practices have reached over 70 percent of housing estates in 18 cities, including Shanghai, Xiamen and Hangzhou, according to the Ministry of Housing and Urban-Rural Development. Shanghai first enacted a mandatory garbage-sorting regulation in July 2019 and has had a 90 percent compliance (服从) rate among its housing estates.According to a report by the Ministry of Ecology and Environment, over 90 percent of the public believe that garbage-sorting is important for the protection of the environment. However, garbage-sorting is still a big problem in China. Only 30 percent of participants said they think they are completely sorting their waste, the report noted. According to Xinhua, it’s partly because many people lack the willingness to sort their own waste. Also, some previous garbage regulat ions didn’t include fines for people who failed to obey them.“It’s a must to have a legal guarantee to promote garbage sorting,” Liu Jianguo, a professor from Tsinghua University, told China Daily, “Aside from China, many countries like Germany, Spain and英语试题第4页(共10页)Britain, also ask people to sort waste into specific categories. In Japan, there is a fixed time for the sorting o f each kind of garbage and littering.”8. What can we learn about the new regulation in Beijing?A. It hasn’t been put into use yet.B. Residents can sort the garbage as they like.C. People can get money if they classify their domestic waste correctly.D. Those who can’t sort the garbage as the new rule requires shall be fined.9. What’s the problem in garbage sorting in China?A. Most people are unaware of its importance in protecting environment.B. Some p eople don’t want to take the trouble to sort th e garbage.C. Only residents in big cities can sort the trash correctly.D. The government does n’t have enough money to support garbage sorti ng.10. What can we infer from Liu Jianguo’s words?A. It’s difficult to carry out garbage sorting in China.B. Some laws in garbage-sorting are needed.C. People in developed countries can better sort the garbage.D. We should learn from Japan.11. What’s the best title of the passage?A. Garbage sorting, a new start in ChinaB. New regulations in BeijingC. Argument on garbage sortingD. How to sort domestic garbageDWant to pick up that new best-seller for your flight, but not sure you want to spend the money? This will change your mind.If you’ve done a lot of traveling, you’ve probably noticed that the booksto res at airports all look pretty similar. They’ve all got familiar logos, the walls of inviting plane snacks, and, of course, the towers of ne w hardcover books. Chances are you’ve wanted to grab one of those books for the plane ride. However, those hardcover books are a little pricey. Is it worth it to splurge, just to relieve the midair boredom?英语试题第5页(共10页)Yes it is—because of a cool program that these bookstores have in place. These similar airport stores are all owned by the company Paradies Lagardère, and all of t hose stores take part in what’s called the “Read and Return program.” It’s exactly what it sounds like. Whenever you buy one of those books, you’ve got six months to finish it and bring it back to the same, or another, Paradies Lagardère location. When you do that, you get half your money for the original purchase back.If you’re going on a trip, buy that book you’ve been dying to read. When you go back to the airport for the return trip, bring the book back with you and get half the money back. While you’r e still in the bookstore, go ahead and get that other book you’ve been dying to read. Or the sequel to the book you read on the way there. Either way, your boredom on the flight back will be cured. And it gets better: the book you gave back will be re-sold for half price! Here’s what you can get for free at an airport.There are two things you do need to make sure of. You have to bring back the receipt to get your money back. Also, the book needs to be in decent condition. But other than that, this program couldn’t be easier. In a way, it’s like a buy-one-get-one-half-off deal for books. Or get two books for the price of one-and-a-half. Either way, count us in.12. What does the underlined word “splurge” in paragraph 2 mean?A. Spend the money.B. Take the effort.C. Take the trouble.D. Spend the time.13. How does the “Read and Return program” run?A. You can read books for free in any Paradies Lagardère store.B. You can buy books for half price in airport bookstores.C. You need to return the book to the same store where you buy it.D. You can get half your money back if you return the book timely.14. What can we learn from the last paragraph?A. It is difficult to take part in the program.B. The receipt is necessary if you want to return the book.C. The program is popular with readers.D. The program runs successfully.英语试题第6页(共10页)。

AThe Breakfast ClubStarred by John Hughes,1985Five high school students with nothing in common are forced to spend an entire Saturday together in detention(拘留).At seven am.they had nothing to say,but by four pm,they had bared their souls to each other and became good friends—the Jock,the Brain,the Criminal,the Princess,and the Kook.They were finally able to talk about themselves while they were forced to stay together.Pretty in Pink.Starred by Howard Deutch,1986Pretty in Pink looks at the central dilemma of adolescence where one’s dreams are much larger than one’s confidence.Molly Ringwald plays Andie Walsh,a poor girl living with her father and working in a downtown record store.The school she attends is full of wealthy snobs(势利小人)and she likes a rich kid Blane.There is nothing new about the plot—rich boy and poor girl love each other and snobbery nearly destroys the romance.CluelessStarred by Amy Heckerling and Alicia Silverstone,1995Cher,played by Alicia Silverstone,is one of the most popular girls at Beverly Hills High School where rich kids hang out,talk to each other on cell phones and occasionally attend classes.At 15 going on 16,Cher has it all—a white Jeep,an extensive wardrobe with a computer to help select the perfect dress,and an unbelievable ability to charm,cajole and whine(哄骗和哭诉)until others obey her requests.The dialogue is wiry and entertaining.1.The Breakfast Club is about__________.A.a prince and a princess B.several criminalsC.several students D.some tourists2.we can conclude from Pretty in Pink that__________.A.the love between Molly and Blane aren’t going smoothlyB.Molly and Blane eventually get marriedC.Molly’s and Blane’a parents quite agree to their loveD.the love between Molly and Blane defeats snobbery3.Which of the following is starred by Howard Deutch?A.The Breakfast Club.B.Pretty in Pink.C.Clueless.D.Beverly Hill Schoo1.4.We can infer that the Breakfast Club,Pretty in Pink and Clueless are three_____.A.world-famous paintings about religionB.Disney’s cartoons about love storiesC.films about teenagersD.ancient Roman fairy talesBPeople back in the United States are always asking me,“What’s it like to live in China?”They hope to hear strange stories about weird food and cultural conflicts.Instead,I tell them that living in China is like being a baby.Please don’t misunderstand me.I don’t think that Chinese people are babies.I am a baby.Or at least,I become one when I leave my house.That’s because babies can’t read,and when I leave my house in Beijing,I'm illiterate(不识字的).This can be dangerous.If a sign says,“Watch out for big angry bears,”in Chinese,I will continue walking,completely ignorant of my peril(危险).Then a bear will eat me for breakfast.I have started to recognize a few characters,but they seem impossible to ever learn withouta lifetime of study.When I see a character I like.I give it a name.There is“The Square,”“The Octopus(章鱼),”“The-upside-down Octopus,”and my favorite,“Upside-down Octopus on an airplane.”However,I still don’t know their sounds or meanings.They are just beautiful mysteries to my eyes.Because I can’t read,city streets present an endless series of enigmas.If I see a business,I wonder,“Is that a restaurant? A dentist? A lawyer’s office?”Once,while hungry,I saw a big colorful sign.I walked in and asked a realtor(房屋中介)to see the drink menu.Speaking of menus,eating at restaurant is a daily misadventure.Many places have photos of food,which is helpful.But if they have no photos,I walk from table to table and point at whatever looks delicious.I apologize if I’ve ever interrupted your dinner to point at your plate.I didn’t mean to be rude.I was just a hungry baby !5.Why does the author think living in China is like being a baby?A.Some Chinese people behave like babies.B.It’s comfortable to be a baby in China.C.He is as curious as a baby about Chinese things.D.He is like a new-born who can’t read at a11.6.What do we know about the author?A.He can order food in simple Chinese.B.He doesn’t know many Chinese Characters.C.His spoken Chinese is better than his written Chinese.D.He memorizes Chinese words based on their sounds.7.In Paragraph5,what does the underlined word enigmas mean?A.Stories.B.Mirac1es.C.Choices. D.Puzzles.8.What is the passage mainly about?A.The author’s love for Chinese food.B.The language barrier the author meets in China.C.Cultural conflicts the author faces in China.D.How the author overcomes difficulties in learning Chinese.CMorgan Holmes had taken part in Boy Scouts of America activities for a few years,but she only became a full member recently.This was because the Boy Scouts began accepting girls from fifth grade to 12th grade into a new program called Scouts BSA.It brings girls the opportunities boys have,including becoming Eagle Scouts,the highest rank of the Boy Scouts.“I'm loving it,”Morgan,now 17,said.“I finally get to wear the uniform now.”Six middle school girls have joined Morgan in Troop48 in Scouts BSA.Some were members of Girls Scouts,and some have brothers in the Boy Scouts.Now brothers and sisters can take part in activities.Morgan knows Boy Scouts activities well.Starting when she was 14,Morgan went on high-adventure outings like hiking 1 00 miles and shooting guns.But she’d never been able to progress to become an Eagle Scout.Now Morgan’s goal is to reach the top rank of Eagle Scout.She regularly runs a mile to build up her body.Now,she’s planning on camping in the snow.“The journey to get there is really exciting,”she said.Since Boy Scout activities are led by the Scouts themselves,Morgan,as the oldest girl,will be organizing activities and teaching the girls to tie knots and other skills.One of those girls in Troop48 is Nicolette U1rich,who is also in the Girl Scouts.Her mother,Sasha Ulrich,said she sees,the Boy Scouts as more leadership oriented and the Girl Scouts as more culturally oriented.This will be shown by all upcoming gathering where girls will learn about different food and cultures from around the world.“Girl Scouts is a great group and she’11 continue to do that.”Sasha said.“But she also wanted the opportunities provided by the Boy Scouts.”9.What did Morgan want to do after becoming a full member of Boy Scouts?A.She wanted to join in the activities with her brother.B.She wanted to challenge herself to become,all Eagle Scout.C.She wanted to compete with boys in all activities.D.She wanted to hike long distances and shoot guns with boys.10.What is the best word to describe Morgan?A.Communicative B.Helpful C.Creative D.Adventurous 11.What does Sasha Ulrich think of Boy Scouts?A.It is more culturally oriented.B.It helps to build teamwork.C.It helps to improve leadership.D.It is more interesting than Girl Scouts.DOne step too farScientists have been trying to figure out how to alter the genes of humans for many years now,and it looks like they’ve finally cracked(破解)the code.But while this may seem like a great step forward in science,some also believe that it’s one step back when it comes to ethics.In August,a group of scientists from the US and South Korea worked together to successfully edit a human embryo and remove a genetic mutation(突变)that would have led to heart disease,reported The Guardian.This was achieved with the help of CRISPR,a gene-editing tool that allows scientists to“cut and paste”human DNA.Although this was the first example of an embryo’s genes being changed successfully,the benefits of gene editing have already been tested in living patients.In 2015,a five-month-old girl from the UK was saved after doctors used edited cells to fight off her cancer.As of today,she’s alive and well.And in the US last year,scientists managed to remove HIV cells from several patients by editing the genes inside their bodies.Some people hope that in the future,diseases or birth detects could simply be “edited out”.However,others believe this could lead to so-called designer babies,giving parents the option to choose everything from eye color to intelligence.“You could find wealthy parents buying the latest‘upgrades’for their children,leading to even greater inequality than we already live with,”Marcy Darnovsky,director of the SanFrancisco Center for Genetics,told BBC News.In spite of these ethical concerns,experts say it’s not possible to create the“perfect”human being.Despite the progress scientists have made,We don’t understand human genes enough to give all unborn child great brainpower or amazing singing abilities.“Right now,we know nothing about genetic enhancement,”Hank Greely,a director of sciences at Stanford University,US,told The New York Times.“We’re never going to be able to say,honestly,‘This embryo looks like it would score high on the two-part SAT.’”So it looks like if we want good exam results,or to impress people with our piano skills,we’11 have to stick with the old fashioned method of plain hard work—at least for now.12.The underlined word“alter”in Paragraph 1 probably means________.A.record B.change C.remove D.increase13.Why do some people consider human gene editing a step backwards?A.They don’t think it is an effective way to light diseases.B.They are concerned that it could lead to genetic mutations.C.They think it could lead to designer babies and increased inequality.D.They worry that it could make parents abandon children with birth defects.14.What was the first successful example of human embryo gene editing?A.A genetic mutation related to heart disease was removed by scientistsB.A newborn baby with cancer was saved by edited cells.C.HIV cells were removed from patients’bodies.D.Some birth defects were simply edited out.15.What can we conclude from the text?A.Gene editing is regarded as the perfect way to treat birth defects.B.There is still a long way to go to fully understand human genes.C.Gene editing could help enhance human intelligence in the near future.D.Scientists are pessimistic about the future of gene editing.第二节(共5小题;每小题2.5分,满分12.5分)阅读下面短文,从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。

Sports & EntertainmentCAfter finishing his dinner, Lin Xu opened a WeChat mini-programcalled "Clear Plate" on his phone and took a picture of the empty plates. He was then awarded 157 credit points after the image was uploaded and recognized by artificial intelligence. The credit points can be used to buy gifts, such as books, cellphones and red wine, or to purchase charity meals donated to children in poor rural areas.The "Clear Plate" mini-program has become popular among young Chinese. Similar campaigns like an "empty plate challenge" are alsoon the horizonin many Chinese universities."Technological innovation is a good way to reduce food waste," said Liu Jichen. Founder of the start-up that developed the app. The idea popped up at a dinner in 2017, when Liu found that the restaurant owner would give diners who polished off their food a card and offer small gifts after a certain number of cards had been collected. "Everyone who values food is bound to enjoy a sense of gain at a lower cost," Liu mentioned this case, noting that such an idea could potentially be realized online.He formeda team to work on the project. Yet it was quite a challenge for the AI system to assess whether the uploaded photos showed empty plates. To make the AI system smarter,Liu and his team, assisted by more than 1, 000 others, spent half a year collecting over100,000 samples from canteens and restaurants across the country and analyzed the data. Dozens of enterprises, institutions and restaurants have contacted the start-up to cooperate on the project.

AI programs encouraging diners toclear their plates.D. AI programs collecting pictures of clearing diners' plates.DThe British poet Matthew Byrne moved to Beijing in 2013 and felt that the capital city's poetry scene waslacking.His obsession(痴迷)for starting poetryevents led to the foundation of the Spittoon Collective in May 2015.“At that time,the literary activity in Beijing was The Bookworm based in Sanlitun,”Byrne says.While some of Beijing's literary institutions would go on to close in the fall of 2019,Spittoon would continue to grow as a community for poets and writers,as well as musicians and others in the creative scene.Byrne describes the Spittoon Collective as a platform for people to share ideas,from literary works to different forms of art,with projects developing from the creative energy within the community.Spittoon originally started as a poetry night at the Mado Bar in Dongcheng District 's Baochao Hutong.Byrne says,“In Beijing,you have these wonderful hutongs,ancient structures where you can walk down and visit cool bars,so I thought it would be good to have a poetry event as it seemed like poetry belonged naturally to this area.”He adds,“The objective now is to discover Chinese voices and broadcast them to the rest of the world.We create a kindof theme park-like atmosphere where every Thursday is occupied by a different literary style or art form.”The readings would mainly be in English,but with an international community,a new section called“Poetry-in-Translation”was started,which featured works in Chinese,French,Arabic,Russian,Spanish and other languages.Joining organized activities like Spittoon can be a major help for those caught up in a boring life.And it's especially important for the people who have moved to China as they need to buildnew relationships while living in a different country.12.

第二部分阅读理解(共两节,满分40分)第一节(共15小题;每小题2分,满分30分)阅读下列短文,从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中,选出最佳选项,并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。
AWalking down a path through some woods in Georgia, I saw a small pool of water ahead on the path.I changed my direction to go around it on the part of the path that wasn’t covered by water or mud. As I reached the pool, I was suddenly attacked! Yet I did nothing for the attack. It was so unpredictable and from somewhere totally unexpected. I was surprised as well as unhurt though I had been struck four or five times. I backed up a foot and my attacker stopped attacking me. Had I been hurt, I wouldn’t have found it amusing. And I was laughing. After all, I was being attacked by a butterfly!Having stopped, laughing, I took a step forward. My attacker rushed me again. He charged towards me at full speed, attempting to hurt me but in vain. For a second time, I took a step backwards while my att acker paused. I wasn’t sure what to do. After all, it’s just not eve ry day that one is attacked by a butterfly. I stepped back to look the situation over. My attacker moved back to land on the ground. That’s when I discovered why my attacker was charging at me only moments earlier. He had a mate and she was dying.Sitting close beside her, he opened and closed his wings as if to fan her. I could only admire the love and courage of that butterfly in his concern for his mate. He had taken it up on himself to attack me for his mate’s sake, even though she was clearly dying and I was so large. He did so just to give her those extra few precious moments of life. His courage in attacking something thousands of times larger and heavier than himself just for his ma te’s safety seemed admirable. I couldn’t do anything other than reward him by walking on the more difficult side of the pool. He had truly earned those moments to be with her, undisturbed.Since then, I’ve always tried to remember the courage of that butt erfly whenever I see huge barriers facing me.21. Why did the writer change his direction while walking down a path?A. To get close to a butterfly.B. To look the bad situation over.C. To escape a sudden attack.D. To avoid getting his shoes dirty.22. What did the man find funny?A. Making the attacker pause.B. Being attacked by a butterfly.C. Stepping on a butterfly.D. Discovering the energetic butterfly.23. Which of the following words can best describe the male butterfly?A. Careless.B. Amusing.C. Courageous.D. Aggressive.24. From this experience the man learned ________.A. what he should do when faced with troubleB. people should show sympathy to the weakC. how he should deal with attacksD. people should protect butterfliesBWhen young people begin to live independently, home-hunting can bring some stress. But they would do well to remember that a new alternative is available—micro-home.Called “tiny houses”, these houses have all living necessities in a small package, including kitchen, bedroom and bathroom. Generally under 50 square meters, most tiny houses accommodate just one or two people though some claim the space for more. What’s lost in size is not lost in design as these homes are often quite unique and modern in design.Besides an attractive appearance, tiny houses can also have unique practical features. Making the best of urban space, the 72- to 122-centimeter-wide Keret House in Warsaw, the world’s narrowest home, fill s in an alley. The Ecocapsule home uses solar power, wind power and rainwater collection to enable its owner to live practically anywhere. A system of rails allows the DALE micro-home to adjust room size and number as well as adding the option of an open or enclosed courtyard.Visually appealing as micro-homes are, there are a few drawbacks to consider before getting cozy on a mini-couch. Moving into a tiny house requires the removing of most non-essentials, regardless of the emotional connection to them. Guests will also mostly be out of the question as the limited space may even cause a solitary (独居的) individual to experience some cabin fever (幽闭症). And finally, a micro-home is likely a temporary living option for most people since they will probably start families and acquire more possessions.Though the limitations will scare some, there is usually a benefit. A small size results in a small price tag and small bills, making tiny houses easier to save up for and budget. And though you won’t have much stuff around the house, this can provide the comfort of simple living and repairs. Micro-homes are also practically mobile and have eco-friendliness that can’t be matched by other homes. They probably aren’t for everyone or forever, but when it comes to your next (or first) home, they could be just what you need.25. What can be learnt about micro-homes from the second paragraph?A. People have to eat out as there is no cooking area.B. These homes are poorly designed due to the small size.C. All of the houses are under 50 square meters in size.D. Suc h houses aren’t necessarily inconvenient though tiny.26. The third paragraph is mainly developed ________.A. by giving examplesB. by making comparisonsC. by following the time orderD. by describing the process27. Micro-homes are especially fit for ________.A. a young couple in hope of settling down permanentlyB. an individual constantly suffering from cabin feverC. a college graduate on a tight budget for the time beingD. a family of five in favor of environmental protection28. What can be a suitable title for the text?A. Is Your House Tiny Enough?B. Why Not Enlarge Your House?C. East Or West, Home Is the Best!D. Micro-homes—More Than Tiny!CWith more recognition than Halloween and less than Christmas, Valentine’s Day as an import ed festival faces a dangerous situation in China, where it’s caught between forces of tradition and fashion. Valentine’s Day has a natural enemy in China. And it is not the Chinese equivalent, which falls on the seventh day of the seventh month on the lunar calendar, usually around half a year away from Feb. 14. It is the Spring Festival, also known as the Chinese New Year, that will influence the Feast of Saint Valentine.The real disagreement between East and West probably took place over a century ago, w hen China’s door was forced open by Western powers and Chinese scholars supported westernization as a means to strengthen our nation’s ability to compete. The introduction of the solar calendar and Western measurements was both an acknowledgment of their influence and an effort to be accepted by the world order.For a full century, we have had two systems running in parallel. When it comes to the eventual outcome, practicality usually beats all other concerns. Laws can help, such as the three traditional festivals of Tomb Sweeping, Dragon Boat and Mid-Autumn gaining legal status in 2008 and giving every Chinese citizen a day off, but laws cannot push what people have no feelings for. So, the celebration or boycott of imported holidays or homegrown ones should be no cause for worry. If they are irrelevant, no social media will change the public’s mind; and if they are accepted, there must be a need which they happen to satisfy.Since we have no global Qin Shihuang to force one system on every country, we can always rely on a dual (双重) approach by which we share with the outside world on one hand but preserve our own ways of life on the other.29. What does the author say about Valentine’s Day in China?A. It is better received than Christmas.B. It brings potential danger to people.C. It becomes increasingly popular.D. It happens to have a natural enemy.30. The underlined word “equivalent” in the first paragraph refers to ________.A. the Chinese Valentine’s DayB. the Spring FestivalC. fashionD. custom31. Which of the following can decide what to celebrate according to the author?A. Laws.B. Media.C. Needs.D. Tradition.32. The author believes that ________.A. the conflict between East and West causes more troubleB. two different systems of festivals can co-exist in ChinaC. westernization is a symbol of a nation’s competitive abilityD. homegrown festivals are more important than imported onesDMost foodies (吃货) agree that eating healthy food is important. But sometimes making good food choices can be tough. Now, there are apps that can help people learn about the food they eat to improve their diets and their dining out experience.Open TableOpen Table helps people choose restaurants when they want to go out to eat. Open Table users can also make restaurant reservations directly through the app or website. Open Table gives users points when they make reservations. The points can add up to discounts on restaurant visits.Cheese & Wine Pairing appWine and cheese can be a great combination. But which wines go best with which cheeses? Max McCalman’s cheese and wine app can help. It provides information about hundreds of different cheeses and suggests wines to pair with each. Max McCal man’s Cheese & Wine Pairing app is free for iPhone and iPad.Calorific appWhat does 200 calories look like? It can be hard to picture. Calorific provides images of 200 calories worth of food. The pictures can help people on a diet and those who just want to eat healthier. The app is free for iPad and iPhone. There is also a version that provides more information for a price.HappyCow appVegetarians do not eat animal meat. Vegans do not eat any animal products. The HappyCow app is made for both groups. Users can search for vegetarian-vegan restaurants and stores around the world. A free version of HappyCow is available for Android that has ads and requires an Internet connection.LocalEats appRestaurant chains, like McDonalds, can be found almost anywhere a person might travel. But sometimes travelers want to eat like locals. The website and app LocalEats is designed for that. It lists locally owned restaurants so users can try foods from that area. The app costs about a dollar.33. If people want to go on a diet, they need ________.A. Cheese & Wine Pairing appB. LocalEats appC. Calorific appD. Open Table34. Which of the following apps is NOT free for iPhone or Android?A. HappyCow app.B. LocalEats app.C. Calorific app.D. Cheese & Wine Pairing app.35. What is the main purpose of this article?A.
