She was born on February 22, 1975, in California. Being from a family that produced great actors, she quickly found her way into the spotlight (聚光灯).When she was 11 months old, she made her first advertisement on TV. She made her first movie at the age of 2. Five years later, she acted Gertie in Steven Spielberg’s famous film E.T. (1982).However, it wasn’t all roses and sunshine when Barrymore was growing up. She once went to the dark side and became a big problem. Most kid stars in Hollywood fail to become stars as adults. And most of the time, once they’re out of the spotlight, they stay out. But Drew Barrymore doesn’t. As she was growingolder, Barrymore started to realize that life is more meaningful than dangerous actions in the films. She started to build a career in 1997. She has made a series of successful films since then, including Charlie’s Angels (2000) and 50 First Dates (2004).“In my life, there is darkness and drama, and I have yet to explore some of that in my work life. I just want to challenge myself and prove that I can do more.”Actually, anyone who’s not familiar with her disordered childhood might find it hard to believe she’s such a sweet person now. Like many of the characters she plays in her comedy, Drew is easy-going and laughs a lot. In 2007, she was on the cover of People magazine’s 100 Most Beautifu l People issue.“Life is very interesting... in the end, some of your greatest pains, become your greatest strengths,” Drew said.26.Drew Barrymore made her first movie in ___________.A.1975B. 1977C. 1979D. 198227.Drew Barrymore can be a Hollywood legend mainly because ___________.A.she always has roses and sunshine in her lifeB.she used to be a famous kid star in HollywoodC.she didn’t give up even when she met difficultiesD.she was born from a family that produced great actors28.Which is the correct order of Drew Barrymore’s life?①She made the film Charlie’s Angels.②She went to the dark side and became a big problem.③She acted Gertie in Steven Spielberg’s famous film E.T..④She is on the cover of People magazine’s 100 Most Beautiful People issue.A. ③②①④B. ④②①③C. ②③④①D. ①③②④29. Which of the following chart (图表) can best describe Drew Barrymore’s career (till 2007)?30. Which of the following words can be used to describe Drew Barrymore according to the passage?A. Interesting.B. Strong-minded.C. Beautiful.D. Clever.BBig data (数据) is a lot of sets of information that are put together so they can be used by a computer program. The computer program looks for different kinds of answers or patterns in the data. Big data can have different kinds of information from many sources, such as information that comes from schools, social media sites, companies and governments. One set of data can have people’s names and addresses. Another set can have what they like, where they go to school, and how much time they spend on the computer.Big data can be used in many ways. The government uses it to understand how many people travel on buses or trains. This information is then used to make bus or train systems better. Some schools use big data to understand which children may need extra help in class. The teacher can then give certain students more help or support so those students can succeed in school. Companies use big data, too. It helps them understand who buys their products. For example, one company uses weather data to see when people eat the most ice cream.Big data can be used for good reasons. Some hospitals use big data to predict if a baby who is born too early will get sick. The hospital can then take extra steps to take care of that baby so he or she does not get sick. Big data can also be used for bad reasons. It can be used to predict which kinds of people are likely to break the law or hurt others, even if they have not done anything wrong.How can big data be used for good and bad thing? It is because the computer programs are written by people. People think in a certain way, and they build a model of those ideas. These ideas are then used to look at the data. Sometimes, these ideas are helpful for people or businesses. Other times, bad ideas can cause problems for certain groups of people.31.Big data can have different kinds of information from many sources. Information that comes from ____________ is not mentioned (提及) in this passage.A. schoolsB. governmentsC. police stationsD. hospitals32. One company uses weather information to ___________.A. help children in needB. find out who take the bus or trainC. know when people will visit the hospitalD. understand when people will need ice cream33. The main idea of Paragraph 3 is that ____________.A. we can use big data in a number of waysB. big data can be only used for good reasonsC. big data can be used for both good and bad reasonsD. we can use big data to stop babies from getting sick34. The passage is mainly about ____________.A. what big data is and how it is usedB. what schools and hospitals people likeC. where important data is collected and storedD. how big data is controlled by governments and companies35. This passage is _____________.A. sad and personalB. personal and scientificC. informative but sillyD. scientific and informative (提供有益信息的)CXinhua English BEIJING, Oct. 16 (Xinhua) --- “Weathering with You”, a Japanese animated (动画) romantic fantasy film is set to hit Chinese theaters on Nov. 1, 2019.Set in Japan, the film talks about a high school teenager Hodaka Morishima who makes a living on his own in Tokyo for the first time.

Ric Griffith puts out one jack-o’ -lantern (南瓜灯) for every person who lives in Kenova.Of course he doesn’t do it all on his own. He has a lot of help from his family, and also from members of the community who are super-proud of what has become quite the tourist attraction over the years. More than 30,000 people stop by to see the amazing display, which includes jack‑o’‑lanterns cut to look like the faces of famous people, animals, cartoon characters, and other creative designs. It’s certainly a must-see as part of the area’s Ceredo-Kenova Autumnfest.To fit in all 3,000 pumpkins, Griffith and his helpers spread them across the home’s garden and front porch (门廊), as well as on the roof!Griffith began the tradition back in 1978 with just fivepumpkins and, many years later, it’s much bigger and better. People can’t help but come to the area, walking along the sidewalk outside the house to get that perfect Halloween experience.“Locals take great pride in it, and then there are people from around the country who plan fall trips and include it in their trips so they can see it,” said Tyson Compton, president of the Cabell‑Huntington Convention and Visitors Bureau. “It’s really something.”“It’s become a tradition for many people in our area, and it feels good to keep that going,” Griffith said.4.

By 2025, as many as 250,000 self-driving vehicles could be sold each year globally, according to a study by an industry research firm.“Vehicles that can take anyone from A to B at the push of a button could transform mobility for millions of people,” said Chris Urmson, director of Google’s self-driving car project. For now, Google has no plans to sell any of its self-driving cars. They are strictly for research. But they will hit public roads this summer near Google’s headquarters inMountain View,California. Previous testing has taken place only on closed courses.The cars are built to operate without a steering wheel, accelerator (油门) or brake pedal. “Our software and sensors do all the work,” Urmson said. “The vehicles will be very basic — we want to learn from them and adapt them as quickly as possible — but they will take you where you want to go at the push of a button.” The prototype (雏形) is the first of a 100-car fleet the tech giant is building.In the long run, Urmson sees a future of safer roads — the majority of auto accidents are caused by human error — and fewer traffic jams. Robotic cars could also shuttle people who can’t drive because of age or illness.Google has said that self-driving cars could launch new business models in which people buy the use ofvehicles they don’t own. The company has already tested other types of self-driving cars on public streets, including modified Lexus sport-utility vehicles, under a special permit program by the California Department of Motor Vehicles that requires a human driver at the controls.The state has issued six other companies permits to operate such cars, includingDelphi, Mercedes-Benz, Volkswagen, Tesla, Bosch and Nissan. The vehicles that will be tested on open roads this summer will have removable steering wheels, accelerators and brake pedals to allow “safety drivers” to take control if needed.8. According to Chris Urmson, __________.A. self-driving cars can give driving orders to humansB. self-driving cars are specially designed for the elderlyC. software and sensors are vital for self-driving carsD. ordinary vehicles will be replaced by self-driving cars9. Paragraph 4 is meant to tell us that __________.A. many traffic accidents are caused by human errorB. some people can’t drive because of illness or ageC. Urmson has promised to create safer roads in the futureD. self-driving cars will probably help to make safer roads and decrease traffic jams10. The underlined word “issued” in the last paragraph can probably bereplaced by__________.A. givenB. claimedC. awardedD. prohibited11. What’s the author’s attitude towards self-driving cars?A. Objective.B. Indifferent.C. Subjective.D. Favorable.DRecycling plastic has always been a stop-start effort, and the wide variety of plastics we produce, the pollution from waste, and other limitations make recycling an economic(经济) problem. It’s estimated(估计)only 9% of plastic ever created has been recycled. But with the help of a chemical process, Canadian Miranda Wang and her company BioCellection want to change that.Stability is one of plastic greatest qualities and downside. There's limited evidence that some plastics can biodegrade (生物降解)but largely photo-plastics degrade in the sun. It’s a long process, and the truth is that we can only estimate how long it takes. Wang is looking to break the inaction and BioCellection's task is to make mostplastic waste recyclable.She outlines two current methods. One is to take plastics like water bottles, wash them, cut them, melt and reconstitute them. “That's a very limited process” she says, due to the requirement that plastics be “clean” . The other, which can handle dirtier plastics and a level of pollution, is called hydrolysis(热解). Intense heat is applied to break down plastics so they can be reused as oils for energy, but “it’s not economical,’’ she says.BioCellection’s solution builds on research from over ten years ago, Wang explains, when a US studydiscovered pure polyethylene powder (聚乙烯粉)could be broken down by a catalyst (催化剂). Wang and her co-founder Jean hit upon a bacterium being able to eat plastic. In the years since, they engineered a comparable catalyst capable of doing the same job, only faster, which even works on plastics no one else can recycle at present. “We have now found a catalyst that is much cheaper than the one that was used before, Wang says.Currently focusing on plastic films like shopping hags, the three-hour process breaks clown plastic into chemicals that can act as the building blocks for more complex plastic products.“Right now we’re able to achieve about 70% transformation from plastic waste material to these chemicals,” she adds, saying they’re working to increase that figure.12. Why has so little plastic been recycled?A. Plastic is chemically stable.B. Recycling plastic led to pollution.C. We produced various plastics.D. Most photo-plastics degrade in the sun.13. What does Wang think of the two current methods?A. Highly effective and dynamic.B. Expensive and pollution-causing.C. Limited and energy-consuming.D. Widely used and recognized.14. What did BioCellection find effective to recycle plastics?A. Polyethylene powder.B. Chemical products.C. Plastic films.D. A catalyst.15. What is the text mainly about?A. Miranda Wang and her company.B. A new plastic recycling method.C. The greatest downside of plastic.D. Transformation of plastic waste.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。

She was born on February 22, 1975, in California. Being from a family that produced great actors, she quickly found her way into the spotlight (聚光灯).When she was 11 months old, she made her first advertisement on TV. She made her first movie at the age of 2. Five years later, she acted Gertie in Steven Spielberg’s famous film E.T. (1982).However, it wasn’t all roses and sunshine when Barrymore was growing up. She once went to the dark side and became a big problem. Most kid stars in Hollywood fail to become stars as adults. And most of the time, once they’re out of the spotlight, they stay out. But Drew Barrymore doesn’t. As she was growingolder, Barrymore started to realize that life is more meaningful than dangerous actions in the films. She started to build a career in 1997. She has made a series of successful films since then, including Charlie’s Angels (2000) and 50 First Dates (2004).“In my life, there is darkness and drama, and I have yet to explore some of that in my work life. I just want to challenge myself and prove that I can do more.”Actually, anyone who’s not familiar with her disordered childhood might find it hard to believe she’s such a sweet person now. Like many of the characters she plays in her comedy, Drew is easy-going and laughs a lot. In 2007, she was on the cover of People magazine’s 100 Most Beautifu l People issue.“Life is very interesting... in the end, some of your greatest pains, become your greatest strengths,” Drew said.26.Drew Barrymore made her first movie in ___________.A.1975B. 1977C. 1979D. 198227.Drew Barrymore can be a Hollywood legend mainly because ___________.A.she always has roses and sunshine in her lifeB.she used to be a famous kid star in HollywoodC.she didn’t give up even when she met difficultiesD.she was born from a family that produced great actors28.Which is the correct order of Drew Barrymore’s life?①She made the film Charlie’s Angels.②She went to the dark side and became a big problem.③She acted Gertie in Steven Spielberg’s famous film E.T..④She is on the cover of People magazine’s 100 Most Beautiful People issue.A. ③②①④B. ④②①③C. ②③④①D. ①③②④29. Which of the following chart (图表) can best describe Drew Barrymore’s career (till 2007)?30. Which of the following words can be used to describe Drew Barrymore according to the passage?A. Interesting.B. Strong-minded.C. Beautiful.D. Clever.BBig data (数据) is a lot of sets of information that are put together so they can be used by a computer program. The computer program looks for different kinds of answers or patterns in the data. Big data can have different kinds of information from many sources, such as information that comes from schools, social media sites, companies and governments. One set of data can have people’s names and addresses. Another set can have what they like, where they go to school, and how much time they spend on the computer.Big data can be used in many ways. The government uses it to understand how many people travel on buses or trains. This information is then used to make bus or train systems better. Some schools use big data to understand which children may need extra help in class. The teacher can then give certain students more help or support so those students can succeed in school. Companies use big data, too. It helps them understand who buys their products. For example, one company uses weather data to see when people eat the most ice cream.Big data can be used for good reasons. Some hospitals use big data to predict if a baby who is born too early will get sick. The hospital can then take extra steps to take care of that baby so he or she does not get sick. Big data can also be used for bad reasons. It can be used to predict which kinds of people are likely to break the law or hurt others, even if they have not done anything wrong.How can big data be used for good and bad thing? It is because the computer programs are written by people. People think in a certain way, and they build a model of those ideas. These ideas are then used to look at the data. Sometimes, these ideas are helpful for people or businesses. Other times, bad ideas can cause problems for certain groups of people.31.Big data can have different kinds of information from many sources. Information that comes from ____________ is not mentioned (提及) in this passage.A. schoolsB. governmentsC. police stationsD. hospitals32. One company uses weather information to ___________.A. help children in needB. find out who take the bus or trainC. know when people will visit the hospitalD. understand when people will need ice cream33. The main idea of Paragraph 3 is that ____________.A. we can use big data in a number of waysB. big data can be only used for good reasonsC. big data can be used for both good and bad reasonsD. we can use big data to stop babies from getting sick34. The passage is mainly about ____________.A. what big data is and how it is usedB. what schools and hospitals people likeC. where important data is collected and storedD. how big data is controlled by governments and companies35. This passage is _____________.A. sad and personalB. personal and scientificC. informative but sillyD. scientific and informative (提供有益信息的)CXinhua English BEIJING, Oct. 16 (Xinhua) --- “Weathering with You”, a Japanese animated (动画) romantic fantasy film is set to hit Chinese theaters on Nov. 1, 2019.Set in Japan, the film talks about a high school teenager Hodaka Morishima who makes a living on his own in Tokyo for the first time.

One day she said, "Mom, I made a new friend at school today. Can she come over tomorrow? " Donna was a shy girl and I wanted her to make some friends to bring her out of her shell."Sure, honey, that sounds great, " I said, thinking back to my own best friend, Lillian. We lived across the street from each other in Washington Heights, New York. We met at the age of 10, too. Like my daughter, I was shy, but Lillian drew me out. She was once of the friendliest people in school, with shiny black hair and a mile-wide smile.In senior high school, Lillian went on a trip to Florida. This was the first time we had to be away from each other for a few days. "I'll be back soon." She told me. But three days later,Lillian's sister told me that she had fallen into a river and hadn't come out any more. Soon, my family moved to New Jersey. Whenever I thought of her, tears came into my eyes.The next day Donna brought her new friend home. "Hi, Mrs. Loggia." the little girl said. Her hair was so shiny and black and she gave me a big smile. "My name is Laura."My daughter's new friend was so much like Lillian. I was still puzzled when Laura's mom came to pick her up later that afternoon. I opened the door to let her in. "Judy!" she cried. "It's me, Lillian's sister, from Washington Heights."

Émilie would be one of the exceptions to that reality as she was a physicist, natural philosopher, and mathematician whose work is still celebrated today.Although we know little about her education, it's clear that she was intelligent in language and science. By the age of twelve she was excellent in Latin, Italian, French, Greek, and German. But her focus was in maths which she studied with a great love.As a girl who favored taking part in the social activities, she married at the age of 18. After giving birth to three children, two of which survived, she returned to her studies of maths at the age of 26, paying no attention to most of social activities of her earlier days.With the help of her family teachers in maths, she also joined in many discussions with the best scientists at that time. This gave her a lot of inspiration in her maths research. In fact, her translation of Newton's Principia Mathematica 《数学原理》is still the most acceptable translation of the work into French. It also played a great role in introducing Newtonian science to Europe. Unfortunately, this was her final work as she passed away from giving her fourth child shortly after finishing the text in 1749.Émilie du Châtelet was a prolific author at that time. Her works covered many fields including philosophy, maths and the natural science. She managed to maintain her confidence and position in Paris society while pursuing her love for maths. Émilie du Châtelet was one of many women whose contributions have helped shape the course of maths.4 A.Maths tin C.Philosophy D.PhysicsÉmilie du Châtelet liked best in her life.(1)A.a-e-c-b-d B.c-e-a-b-d C.c-a-e-d-b D.a-c-e-d-bIn what order did the following events take place in Émilie's life?a.

If you watch closely, you will see that as your cat falls asleep, her breathing becomes slow and her body still. She has entered the first stage of sleep, called slow-wave sleep. After about 15 minutes, you will notice a change in her breathing. Her paws and whiskers twitch (抽动)and her ear suddenly moves a bit. Her eyes move under her closed lids. Your cat has entered the REM (rapid eye movement sleep ). Although she twitches and makes little noises, messages from her brain to the large muscles in her legs are stopped, so she can't run about. She is in a state of "sleep paralysis (麻痹)".Back in 1963, Michel Jouvet, a French scientist who was studying sleep in cats explained their sleep paralysis. Even though they were completely asleep, the dreaming cats began to go after balls that Jouvet couldn't see and was ready to fight back at invisible enemies. He thought he was watching them act out their dreams.What were they dreaming about? Mostly, the dreaming cats seemed to act out important cat skills.In another study, neuroscientist Matt Wilson recorded rats' brain wave while they leaned makes (迷宫). One day, he left the brain-wave-recording machine on while the rats fall asleep. The shape of brain waves in the sleeping rats matched the shape of the maze so closely that Wilson could exactly point out which part of the maze each rat was dreaming about!Many researchers now think that in both people and animals, one purpose of dreams is to repeat important skills and review recent learning. This may explain why so many people dream about fighting and escaping, skills that were probably very important to people a long time ago,and why dreaming affects our ability to learn.Do all animals dream? From looking at the brain waves of sleeping animals, scientists think that all mammals like cats, dogs and even tigers dream, but fish don't.(They're not sure about birds ) Also, how often animals dream seems to be related to body size. Cats dream about every 15 minutes, rats every 9 minutes, and elephants every 2 hours. And though cows and horses usually sleep standing up, they only dream when lying down.A.B.C.D.The cat enters the REM .before her slow-wave sleepwhen her breathing becomes slow15 minutes after she closes her eyeswhen her eyes move under her closed lids(1)A.Cats.

Ability is easily improved. 1 So today I want to give you some wisdom about how to make the most of the time you spend in the kitchen. Here are three tips for great cooking on a tight schedule:1. Think ahead. The moments when I think cooking is a pain are when I'm already hungry and there is nothing ready to eat. So think ahead of the coming week. When will you have time to cook? Do you have the right materials ready? 22. Make your time worth it. When you do find time to cook a meal, make the most of it and save yourself time later on. Are you making one loaf of bread? Make three or four instead. 3 So save yourself the effort for a future meal.3. 4 This may surprise you, but one of the best tools for making cooking worth your time is experimentation (实验). It gives you the chance to hit upon new ideas that cans work well with your appetite (食欲) and schedule. The more you learn and the more you try, the more ability you have to take control of your food and your schedule.5 Let cooking and living simply be a joy rather than a burden. And don't let a busy schedule discourage you from making some great changes in the way you eat and live!7四、语篇补全(共5小题,每小题1分,共5分)D.E.Money is a topic I'll save for another day.Try new things.Emily's family don't often spend time doing activities together.
