During his stage life, he combined(融合)the traditions of the past and his own creations,creating a style of his own and giving birth to "The Mei Lanfang School". He was also the first artist to introduce Peking Opera to foreigners, winning international fame(名声)in the world. For half a century, Mei Lanfang was a household name in China.Mei Lanfang began his stage life at the age of 8. His teacher said he showed little hope becauseof his boring eyes. To improve this,he exercised them day after day. He would fly kites and look at them moving slowly in a blue sky. He also kept pigeons in order to look at them flying higher and higher until they disappeared into the clouds. Thanks to his efforts,he managed to change his dull eyes into a pair of bright and expressive eyes and win national fame before the age of 20.In over 50 years on the stage,Mei Lanfang played no less than 100 different characters in the traditional Peking Opera performance(表演).He completely changed both stage make-up and costumes,and made characters' performance richer. He also wrote many new plays,designing the dances himself. They are part of the great legacy(遗赠)that he left to Peking Opera.In 1930,Mei Lanfang started on a successful US tour. There his great performances fascinated the audience,making them realize that Peking Opera was a most valuable form of art.29. What does the first sentence of the passage mean in Paragraph 1?A. Peking Opera would not be well-known without Mei Lanfang.B. Mei Lanfang made Peking Opera a complete art form.C. Mei Lanfang won international fame in the world.D. Mei Lanfang plays an important role in Peking Opera.30. How long did it take Mei Lanfang to exercise his eyes into bright and expressive ones?A. About 8 years.B. About 10 years.C. About 12 years.D. About 14 years.31. What is the main idea of the passage?A. The history of Peking Opera.B. Mei Lanfang's early stage life.C. Mei Lanfang's great contributions to Peking Opera.D. The creations of Peking Opera by Mei Lanfang.CEverybody knows that Earth spins from west to east. That is to say, it appears to be spinning counterclockwise(逆时针)when viewed from above the North Pole.But what if Earth started spinning the other way?Scientists from Germany have made a computer simulation(模拟)in which Earth spins in the opposite direction-clockwise when viewed from above the North Pole. This showed them some interesting things about the weather and topography(地形地貌)on Earth, live Science reported. As Earth spins in a counterclockwise direction, it shapes ocean currents(洋流).The direction of the spin, together with wind, produces different weather around the globe(全球).But a backwards spin changes the ocean currents and winds. Therefore, the climate(气候)is different. Western areas of continents(大陆)on Earth cool down as the eastern parts warm up. Winters become even colder in northwestern Europe, while eastern Russia becomes warmer than before. Rain no longer falls on the planet's wettest places.Another result of a backward spin is that Earth becomes greener. Scientists found that global desert(沙漠)areas reduce from 42 million square kilometers to 3l. million square kilometers. This may have something to do with the changing climate.Therefore, you can see rich green landscapes from Central Africa to the Middle East, which aremostly covered by deserts now. More surprisingly, the Sahara Desert becomes an oasis(绿洲). _______ . They just appear in some places that they never appeared in before. Deserts would cover North America, where countries like the United States and Canada lie. Sand dunes(沙丘)would replace the Amazon rainforest in South America.A backward spin would keep the major characteristics of Earth's topography, such as the size, shapes and positions of continents and oceans. But it would also change the interactions between circulating(环流)air, ocean and topography, lead scientist Florian Ziemen told Live Science.32. Why would the climate be different if Earth spins backwards?A. Because there won't be any more large oceans.B. Because the ocean currents and winds will be changed.C. Because it will change the amount of sunlight that Earth can receive.D. Because Earth will become greener without deserts.33. What will a backwards spin bring to the Earth?A. Winters will become colder.B. No rain will fall in summer.C. Eastern Russia will become warmer.D. The Sahara Desert will become smaller.34. The story tells us that _____ .A. Earth used to spin in the opposite directionB. a backwards spin would cause interesting changes on EarthC. global desert areas have become smallerD. a backwards spin would change Earth's topography completely35. Which of the following sentences can be put at the beginning of the eighth paragraph?A. Sadly, deserts would cover North America.B. Luckily, deserts would disappear(消失).C. Anyway, deserts would replace the Amazon rainforest.D. However, deserts don't disappear.四、词汇运用(共10小题;每小题1分,满分10分)A)根据句意,用括号中所给单词的正确形式填空,每空一词。

Any introduction to Peking Opera would not be complete without telling of Mei Lanfang. During his stage life, he combined(融合)the traditions of the past and his own creations, creating a style of his own and giving birth to "The Mei Lanfang School". He was also the first artist to introduce Peking Opera to foreigners, winning international fame(名声)in the world. For half a century, Mei Lanfang was a household name in China.Mei Lanfang began his stage life at the age of 8. His teacher said he showed little hope because of his boring eyes. To improve this, he exercised them day after day. He would fly kites and look at them moving slowly in a blue sky. He also kept pigeons in order to look at them flying higher and higher until they disappeared into the clouds. Thanks to his efforts, he managed to change his dull eyes into a pair of bright and expressive eyes and win national fame before the age of 20.In over 50 years on the stage, Mei Lanfang played no less than 100 different characters in the traditional Peking Opera performance(表演).He completely changed both stage make﹣up and costumes, and made characters' performance richer. He also wrote many new plays, designing the dances himself.They are part of the great legacy(遗赠)that he left to Peking Opera.In 1930, Mei Lanfang started on a successful US tour. There his great performances fascinated the audience, making them realize that Peking Opera was a most valuable form of art.(1)What does the first sentence of the passage mean in Paragraph 1?________A Peking Opera would not be well﹣known without Mei Lanfang.B Mei Lanfang made Peking Opera a complete art form.C Mei Lanfang won international fame in the world.D Mei Lanfang plays an important role in Peking Opera..(2)How long did it take Mei Lanfang to exercise his eyes into bright and expressive ones?________A About 8 years.B About 10 years.C About 12 years.D About 14 years..(3)What is the main idea of the passage?________A The history of Peking Opera.B Mei Lanfang's early stage life.C Mei Lanfang's great contributions to Peking Opera.D The creations of Peking Opera by Mei Lanfang.19. Everybody knows that Earth spins from west to east. That is to say, it appears to be spinning counterclockwise(逆时针)when viewed from above the North Pole.But what if Earth started spinning the other way?Scientists from Germany have made a computer simulation(模拟)in which Earth spinsin the opposite direction﹣clockwise when viewed from above the North Pole. This showed them some interesting things about the weather and topography(地形地貌)on Earth, live Science reported.As Earth spins in a counterclockwise direction, it shapes ocean currents(洋流).Thedirection of the spin, together with wind, produces different weather around the globe(全球).But a backwards spin changes the ocean currents and winds. Therefore, the climate(气候)is different. Western areas of continents(大陆)on Earth cool down as the eastern parts warm up. Winters become even colder in northwestern Europe, while eastern Russia becomes warmer than before. Rain no longer falls on the planet's wettest places.Another result of a backward spin is that Earth becomes greener. Scientists found that global desert(沙漠)areas reduce from 42 million square kilometers to 31. million square kilometers. This may have something to do with the changing climate.Therefore, you can see rich green landscapes from Central Africa to the Middle East, which are mostly covered by deserts now. More surprisingly, the Sahara Desert becomes an oasis (绿洲).______. They just appear in some places that they never appeared in before. Deserts would cover North America, where countries like the United States and Canada lie. Sand dunes(沙丘)would replace the Amazon rainforest in South America.A backward spin would keep the major characteristics of Earth's topography, such as the size, shapes and positions of continents and oceans.But it would also change the interactions between circulating(环流)air, ocean and topography, lead scientist Florian Ziemen told Live Science.(1)Why would the climate be different if Earth spins backwards?________A Because there won't be any more large oceans.B Because the ocean currents and winds will be changed.C Because it will change the amount of sunlight that Earth can receive.D Because Earth will become greener without deserts..(2)What will a backwards spin bring to the Earth?________A Winters will become colder.B No rain will fall in summer.C Eastern Russia will become warmer.D The Sahara Desert will become smaller..(3)The story tells us that________.A Earth used to spin in the opposite directionB a backwards spin would cause interesting changes on EarthC global desert areas have become smallerD a backwards spin would change Earth's topography completely.(4)Which of the following sentences can be put at the beginning of the eighth paragraph?________A Sadly, deserts would cover North America.B Luckily, deserts would disappear (消失).C Anyway, deserts would replace the Amazon rainforest.D However,deserts don't disappear.四、词汇运用(共5小题;每小题1分,满分5分)A)根据句意,用括号中所给单词的正确形式填空,每空一词.20.

Most of us have made an exercise plan, but only a few can follow it. WebMD(an American website) has listed the following tips for making exercise a habit in your life.1. Do activities you enjoy.Remember, there's no rule that says you have to go to a sports centre or buy equipmentlike swimming suits. Many types of activities, such as push﹣up(俯卧撑), can be done whenever it is rainy or snowy.2. Exercise after work.Don't go home first. Few people are so motivated(有动力的) that they will go out again and exercise after they go home and change clothes.3. Exercise even when you are tired.Tiredness is not an excuse. While exercising, you breathe deeply and your body makes better use of the oxygen exchange. Then, you will feel energetic.4. Notice that you are better than before.It's great when your clothes fit better, you can lift heavier things or take exercise longer. There's something good too, like getting a good night's sleep or thinking more clearly.5. Walk with a pedometerNot everyone can start out with 10,000steps a day. Use a pedometer, and find out your daily steps. And then, try your best to walk 300extra steps each day. Finally, you can reach 10,000steps a day.阅读以上信息,用恰当的单词完成下面的短文,每空一词.According to WebMD, there are some easy ways to make exercise a habit. First, when you do activities you enjoy, such as push﹣up, you don't have to consider (1)________conditions. Second, the best way is to exercise before going home because most people are unwilling to go out again and exercise after(2)________clothes at home.

After many hours of 18 patiently in the hall of the nursing home, she smiled sweetly when I told her that her room was 19 . In the elevator(电梯), I began to 20 her room, including the old sheets hung on her window.“I love it,” She smiled with the excitement of an eight-year-old girl who has just been given a new toy.“But you haven’t seen the room.

Here we've got some tips for you.Tip 1 Be KindRemember to be kind to yourself. You can do simple things to take care of yourself,like getting enough sleep to make yourself energetic. If you don't do like that, you will not bring anything good to anyone else. When you decide to show more kindness to yourself and to others, life changes quickly in a better way.Tip 2 Be EncouragingIt's amazing what a kind word or touch can do. When I was a kid, I went to a lot of schools. It always made me scared, and I was very nervous and unsure of myself. One time, a teacher touched my head and said, smiling,"Don't worry---you'll have a good time with us in this classroom." I still remember my teacher's words.All of us may come across some trouble in our life, and a bit of encouragement can be remembered for years.Tip 3 ________________When my sister and I were kids, my mum didn't have a car and our school was a 30﹣minute walk. Our neighbor offered to drive us to school when she dropped her son off,and that saved my mother a lot of time. Giving help to others can bring you happiness.When thinking about how to become a better person, remember that small changes are also important. But "be kind to yourself" comes first. As the old saying goes, "You can't pour from an empty cup." So in order to be a person who can give more love to this world,you have to fall in love with yourself first.26. The underlined word "It" in Tip 2refers to (指代)_______ .A. going to a lot of schoolsB. getting along with classmatesC. talking with the teacherD. staying in the classroom27. What can be the best title for Tip 3?A. Be HelpfulB. Be PoliteC. Be OutgoingD. Be Honest28. The sentence "You can't pour from an empty cup. " in the last paragraph means " _______. "A. To encourage others, smile to them oftenB. To become a better person, start with small changesC. To give more love to the world, be kind to yourself firstD. To make friends with neighbors, drive their kids to schoolBHave you heard of “Hollywood Smile”? It gets its name because American movie stars are so proud to show off their beautiful teeth.However, the British, have a reputation ( 名声) for bad teeth. May 14th is National Smile Month in the UK. The Oral Health Foundation hopes that it will make people think about the importance of brushing their teeth regularly, cutting down on sweet foods, and going to see the dentist often.It’s said that the British have the practice “stiff upper lip ( 保持上嘴唇不动)” so that they don’t often show their feelings. They neither smile nor cry. Smiling is sometimes banned under some circumstance s since 2005. For example, the British haven’t allowed smiling when taking passport photographs. Another example, at work and school, you simply smile when it’s natural to smile. What about smiling in the UK in general? Do British people smile a lot, or do they look sad all the time? Of course it is not true. When to smile all depends on the situation. For example, you wouldn’t expect anyone to smile at a funeral (葬礼). But if you are at a party of any kind, you’llfind everyone smiling from ear to ear.Smiling is good for you, no doubt about it, even if you do have a few bad teeth. And smiling is good for those around you too. As a famous writer wrote, “A good smile, a kind word, agood-natural smile can work wonders and miracles (奇迹).”29. The Oral Health Foundation expects the British to do EXCEPT _______ .A. brush teeth regularlyB. see the dentist oftenC. pull out the bad teethD. cut down on sweet food30. What’s the meaning of the underlined word “circumstances” in Paragraph 3?A. Places.B. Photos.C. Conditions.D. Times.31. From this passage, we can know that ______ .A. smile or not depends on different situationsB. British people used to protect their teeth wellC. smiling is good for those who have bad teeth around youD. the British have seldom allowed smiling in passport photosCMany people dream of travelling into outer space. However, spending too much time in space may cause health problems, according to NASA. That’s why astronauts shouldn’t spend more than six months on the International Space Station(ISS) at a time.Muscle(肌肉) and bonelessIn a weightless environment, astronauts don’t need to use their muscles to support themselves. Therefore, their muscles start shrinking(萎缩). To keep their muscles strong, astronauts need to exercise about 2 hours each day on the ISS. The weightless environment also causes astronauts bones to lose minerals, with density( 密度) dropping at over 1 percent per month. The rate of bone loss for elderly people on Earth is 1 to 1.5 percent per year.Sleep disorder(混乱)In space, the sun rises every 90 minutes. It is hard for astronauts to get used to this light-dark cycle when they sleep. Also, they need to sleep in a sleeping bag that is fixed to a wall, which is uncomfortable. Astronauts now have individual sleeping pods(分离仓) that help shut out some of the light. Still, studies have found that most astronauts only sleep about six hours each night, even though they should have eight and a half hours.Brain changesScientists have found that the position of the brain changes during spaceflight. It shifts upward within the skull( 头骨). This can affect how the brain deals with how we see, stay balanced and move around.That’s why some astronauts can’t control their movement and balance after returning to the earth. Scientists have also found that astronauts may get used to this change after going on more spaceflights. But they still need to do more research.32. Astronauts suffer muscle problems after returning to the earth because ______ .A. they are too busy to exercise in spaceB. they don’t have enough room to exercise in spaceC. they don’t use their muscles in spaceD. they rarely walk while in space33. Astronauts sleep in individual sleeping pods to ______ .A. shut out lightB. stay warm at nightC. enjoy a quiet atmosphereD. prevent themselves from floating around34. How can astronauts deal with the problem of losing their balance?A. They can walk upside-down on the earth.B. They can go on more spaceflights.C. They can take some medicine.D. They can sleep more and rest.35. What’s the best title for this passage: _______ .A. Dream of travelling into spaceB. Health problems in spaceC. Muscle and bone loss in spaceD. Astronauts in space四、词汇运用(共10小题;每小题1分,满分10分)A)根据句意,用括号中所给单词的正确形式填空。

You might think this is impossible, but in rare cases, it has actually rained frogs! How could this happen? During a tornado or a powerful thunderstorm, water from a pond or lake can be sucked into the air. This includes anything that is in the water.The storm continues to move. As it travels, it releases the water into the sir. Does this mean that frogs and fish come raining down from the sky? Yes, this is exactly what happens! Cases of strange things falling down from the sky have been reported for many years. People have seen small frogs, fish, grasshoppers and snails drop from the sky in places like France, India and the United States. Are animals the only things that get swept up by storms? No. In fact, in 1995, it rained soda cans in the United States!(1)Why is it possible to rain frogs from the sky?________A. Frogs are swept up by the storm.B. God casts down a rain of frogs.C. Frogs go into the air when it rains.D. The sky is the living place for frogs..(2)What are some unusual things that fall from the sky mentioned in this article?________A. Frogs and snakes.B. Snails and soda cans.C. Fish and soda.D. Grasshoppers and trees..(3)What can we infer from the passage?________A. France is more likely to rain fish.B. It once rained soda cans in India.C. It's possible to rain real cats one day.D. Raining frogs often happen worldwide..I had an old neighbour, a doctor named Gibbs. When Doctor Gibbs wasn't saving lives, he was planting trees. He had some interesting ideas about planting trees. He hardly watered his new trees.Once I asked why and he told me that watering plants made them grow weaker. He said he had to make things difficult for the trees so that only the strongest could survive. He talked about how watering trees made them develop shallow roots and how, if they were not watered, trees would grow deep roots in search of water.So, instead of watering his trees every morning, he'd beat them with a rolled up newspaper.I asked him why he did that, and he said it was to get the trees' attention.Doctor Gibbs died a couple of years after I left home. Sometimes I walked by his house and looked at the trees I'd watched him plant 25 years ago. They were tall and strong.I planted several trees myself a few years ago.Two years of caring for these trees meant they grew up weakly. Every time a cold wind blew, my trees shook. ________ seemed to be good for Doctor Gibb's trees, they could never relax.Every night before I go to bed, I check on my two sons. I often pray(祈祷)that their lives will be easy. But lately I've been thinking that it's time to change my prayer. I know my children are going to experience difficulties. There's always a cold wind blowing somewhere. What we need to do is to pray for deep roots, so when the rains fall and the winds blow, we won't be separated.(1)What did Doctor Gibbs do to the trees he planted?________A. He let them grow quickly.B. He beat them to get their attention.C. He helped them search for water.D. He read a newspaper near them..(2)What does the word "Adversity" in Paragraph 5 mean?________A. Difficult living conditions.B. Little water.C. Enough care or attention.D. Bad weather..(3)What does the writer learn from Doctor Gibbs?________A. Elders are treasures.B. No pain,no gain.C. Two heads are better than one.D. Only those who bear(容忍)the most become the highest.Like many other countries around the world, China hopes to explore the moon. It has already done so with several probes(探测器) and lunar rover(月球车). But it haseven bigger plans to put a man on the moon in the near future.Yang Liwei, China's first man in space, said that it will "not take long" for a manned mission(任务)to get offcial agreement and money support, according to the Xinhua News Agency.China's space programme is still young compared to those of the United States and Russia. But it has already made great achievements in exploring the moon. Its moon mission began with Chang'e 1, an unmanned orbital(轨道)probe that was sent up in October, 2007. It collected data that was used to create a 3﹣D map of the moon's surface. China achieved another achievement with the Chang'e 3 mission. For thismission, China's first lunar rover, Yutu, successfully landed on the moon.For China's space programme, it was another great achievement that Chang'e 4, the second lunar rover successfully landed on the moon's far side, an area that has not yet been explored, in December, 2018.China will follow Chang'e 4 with a series of other lunar mission. These missions will include taking lunar soil and rock samples, building "moon base, and hopefully landing a human on the moon's surface around 2030, according to Zhao Xiaojin, a senior official atthe China Academy of Space Technology.Last year, when Yang Liwei was asked if he had any plans to visit the moon himself, he replied, "If I am given the chance, no problem!" It is likely that many other Chinese share Yang's excitement about this new stage of China's space exploration efforts.(1)Which of the following countries may be better than China in space programme?________A. Russia.B. The UK.C. Canada.D. Australia..(2)China has already made great achievements in exploring the moon, such as,Chang'e 1 was________.A. the first lunar rover and landed on the moonB. the second lunar rover and landed the moon's far sideC. a manned prober and landed on the moon's surface with a manD. an unmanned orbital probe and began the moon mission.(3)From this passage, we can know that Yang Liwei________.A. is China's first man on the moonB. is worried about China's future space programmeC. will be given a chance to visit the moon himselfD. believes it won't take long to put a man on the moon for China..(4)What's the best title for this passage?________A.

Do you support this service?阅读以上信息,用恰当的单词完成下面的短文,每空一词.The hot topic "Should paying extra money lead to better treatment?" is being discussed. Some agree to it. Some are(1)________it. People who support it think we have no(2)________for blaming tourists who pay more, because they think there are first﹣class tickets on a plane or VIP windows in banks. Those people who(3)________ to it think that "paying more equals better treatment" may mislead children that all the(4)________can be solved with money. And someone's cutting in not only breaks rules, but also(5)________other visitors badly. What's your opinion?We've probably all met someone who likes to show off about where he or she has been. To some people, traveling is all about how many places one has been to. But luckily, the old "been there, seen that" mode is changing.Last year's travel trend (趋势) was "experiential travel". This is where tourists look for ways to get to know local culture and meet local people so they feel less like an outsider.So what about this year? Can creative tourists get even more out of their traveling experience?Transformative travelTransformative (起改变作用的) travel is much like "experiential travel", but takes it a step further.It usually goes through three steps ﹣ you go to a place that has a very different background from where you live, you learn wisdom from the new culture and the people you meet,and finally you go back home and use the knowledge in your own lives. This last step is how the "transformation" is completed and what separates transformative travel from experiential travel.Go greenOne way to plan a green trip is to travel a shorter distance,which can reduce your carbon footprint (碳排放量). "One trans﹣Atlantic flight equals a year's worth of driving, so taking a trip in this way can help protect the environment," suggested Warren, according to US News.Another way to go green in your travel plans is to choose a place that will be helped most from your trip. For example, places like Nepal will enjoy an increase in its local economy (经济) through the trip.Disappearing sightsSome sights at risk of disappearing are also welcoming an increasing number of tourists.Everett Potter, a USA Today writer, says that the Arctic and Antarctic have attracted more and more tourists since they are being greatly influenced by climate (气候) change.Another top sight is the Great Barrier Reef in Australia. It's believed that the reef will be seriously harmed in just a few years because of pollution and global warming. Travelers look forward to seeing the coral (珊瑚) "before it's gone or completely changed", Potter told US News.目前,许多中学生利用周末和节假日上课外补习班,对此人们有不同的看法.请根据下面内容写一篇短文.注意:1.表达清楚,语法通顺,上下文连贯;2.必须包括提示的所有信息,并适当发挥,至少两点;3.词数:100词左右(文章开头已给出,不计入总词数);4.不得使用真实姓名、校名和地名等.Nowadays, many middle school students are taking all kinds of after﹣school classes at weekends or on holidays.

During his stage life, he combined(融合)the traditions of the past and his own creations, creating a sty le of his own and giving birth to “The Mei Lanfang School”. He was also the first artist to introduce Peking Opera to foreigners, winning international fame(名声)in the world. For half a century, Mei Lanfang was a household name in China.Mei Lanfang began his stage life at the age of 8. His teacher said he showed little hope because of his boring eyes. To improve this, he exercised them day after day. He would fly kites and look at them moving slowly in a blue sky. He also kept pigeons in order to look at them flying higher and higher until they disappeared into the clouds. Thanks to his efforts, he managed to change his dull eyes into a pair of bright and expressive eyes and win national fame before the age of 20.In over 50 years on the stage, Mei Lanfang played no less than 100 different characters in the traditional Peking Opera performance(表演).He completely changed both stage make﹣up and costumes, and made characters’ performance richer. He also wrote many new plays, designing the dances himself.They are part of the great legacy(遗赠)that he left to Peking Opera.In 1930, Mei Lanfang started on a successful US tour. There his great performances fascinated the audience, making them realize that Peking Opera was a most valuable form of art.(1)What does the first sentence of the passage mean in Paragraph 1?________A. Peking Opera would not be well﹣known without Mei Lanfang.B. Mei Lanfang made Peking Opera a complete art form.C. Mei Lanfang won international fame in the world.D. Mei Lanfang plays an important role in Peking Opera..(2)How long did it take Mei Lanfang to exercise his eyes into bright and expressive ones?________A. About 8 years.B. About 10 years.C. About 12 years.D. About 14 years..(3)What is the main idea of the passage?________A. The history of Peking Opera.B. Mei Lanfang’s early stage life.C. Mei Lanfang’s great contributions to Peking Opera.D. The creations of Peking Opera by Mei Lanfang.Everybody knows that Earth spins from west to east. That is to say, it appears to be spinning counterclockwise(逆时针)when viewed from above the North Pole.But what if Earth started spinning the other way?Scientists from Germany have made a computer simulation(模拟)in which Earth spins in the opposite direction﹣clockwise when viewed from above the North Pole. This showed them some interesting things about the weather and topography(地形地貌)on Earth, live Science reported.As Earth spins in a counterclockwise direction, it shapes ocean currents(洋流).The direction of the spin, together with wind, produces different weather around the globe(全球).But a backwards spin changes the ocean currents and winds. Therefore, the climate(气候)is different. Western areas of continents(大陆)on Earth cool down as the eastern parts warm up. Winters become even colder in northwestern Europe, while eastern Russia becomes warmer than before.Rain no longer falls on the planet’s wettest places.Another result of a backward spin is that Earth becomes greener. Scientists found that global desert(沙漠)areas reduce from 42 million square kilometers to 31. million square kilometers. This may have something to do with the changing climate.Therefore, you can see rich green landscapes from Central Africa to the MiddleEast, which are mostly covered by deserts now. More surprisingly, the Sahara Desert becomes an oasis(绿洲).______. They just appear in some places that they never appeared in before. Deserts would cover North America, where countries like the United States and Canada lie. Sand dunes(沙丘)would replace the Amazon rainforest in South America.A backward spin would keep the major characteristics of Earth’s topography, such as the size, shapes and positions of continents and oceans.But it would also change the interactions between circulating(环流)air, ocean and topography, lead scientist Florian Ziemen told Live Science.(1)Why would the climate be different if Earth spins backwards?________A. Because there won’t be any more large oc eans.B. Because the ocean currents and winds will be changed.C. Because it will change the amount of sunlight that Earth can receive.D. Because Earth will become greener without deserts..(2)What will a backwards spin bring to the Earth?________A. Winters will become colder.B. No rain will fall in summer.C. Eastern Russia will become warmer.D. The Sahara Desert will become smaller..(3)The story tells us that________.A. Earth used to spin in the opposite directionB. a backwards spin would cause interesting changes on EarthC. global desert areas have become smallerD. a backwards spin would change Earth’s topography completely.(4)Which of the following sentences can be put at the beginning of the eighth paragraph?________A.

Theirproducts were seen all over the world. Chinese sportswear brand Li Ning was at the New YorkFashion Week in September,2018.They showed their newdesigns-sweaters and jackets with Chinese characters.Shaun Rein, managing director of China Market Research Group, said that the latest Chinese brands no longer catch customers' eye by low price.

They don't show immediate interest in western culture any more."Today's young people in China are crazy about Chinese cultural elements(元素)."

However, there are also causes for getting toolittle sleep.Homework is a daily occurrence for most students, one that can take three tofour hours per night. A teenager who wants to be able to take part in any activity besides homework must stay up late to fit everything in Club activities, sports, computer-game playing, and TV viewing. For example,all contribute to(促成)teens having less time for both homework and sleep.Sometimes teens lack sleep because ofafter-school jobs that are taken on to earn extra money for college, family expenses, or simply for clothes.Physical problems are another factor that can cause students to fall alseep in class. For example,insomnia, which may keep a student up at night, causing exhaustion(疲惫不堪)during class hours,is a serious problem that may require medical attention. Medical evidence also supports the idea that each person has a body clock that helps to decide his or her sleep pattern. Unluckily, these bodyclocks do not always work according to school timetables.The effects of falling asleep in class can be quite serious. First of all, sleeping in class is not a good way to endear(使受喜爱)yourself to teachers. In addition, it is highly possible that other students may make jokes about those who sleep in class. However, the most harmful effect of sleeping in class is missing out on important points. In the long run, sleepers may end up failing classes.Since teens are probably not going to deal with the problem, falling asleep in class will probably remain an all-too-common occurrence. It will continue until more teens find a way to balance their personal and social lives with school and work, while still finding enough time to sleep.Introduction Times have changed, (1) falling asleep in class is still quite common.Causes Lack of sleep◆To (2) doing their homework, students may have to work three to four hours every night.◆To (3) homework with activities, students may stay up late.◆To spare time for after-school jobs, students may not have (4) time to sleep.
