Gardening changed how I see myself as a disabled woman. When I started gardening in 2018, I didn’t know anything about plants, let alone how to grow things we can eat. I thought gardening required a lot of 1 tasks. As I have a genetic (遗传的) condition that causes my bones to 2 easily, I didn’t believe I could complete them. The thought of taking care of plants in a wheelchair every day made me feel 3 . But just like how I gradually learnt everything else as a disabled person, I had to 4 how to garden my way.That first season, I visited my garden as much as I could. Noticing my interest in gardening, my neighbors in the community 5 offered me advice and support. Under their careful 6 , I managed to pull up the weeds and watered my plants on my own. Finally, I was so proud to eat the tomatoes I grew and even shared some with neighbors. They tasted like summertime.Gardening has 7 how I see other parts of my life. As a disabled woman, I fear being seen as a 8 and struggle to ask for the things I need. Gardening helped me normalize the fact that I have needs. I don’t think my plant is a heavy load because it needs more nutrition. I don’t 9 it for getting insects and not being able to fight against them. Gardening also helped me expand my social circle and grow close to people in our community.Over the years, gardening has made me feel more confident in every aspect of my life. I’m planting what I want to grow, and I have gained a lot of 10 from that.1. A. simple B. physical C. pleasant D. urgent2. A. change B. rest C. break D. move3.

We've all heard the saying “Laughte r is the best medicine". And there might be something in this idiom. Numerous studies have shown that people who report greater_1_ tend to have better medical outcomes.For instance a 2017 study at the University of Nottingham tested the effect of mood on 138 retirees 2 the normal flu injection.Those who felt happy on the day of the vaccination went on to 3 moreflu-fighting antibodies. Earlier work at Yale University and the University of Florida has also shown that people's mood affects the activation of gene s that fight disease.But does happiness lead to good 4 , or is it the other way around? After all, it could be that people who have strong immune systems 5 have higher levels of other mood-improving brain chemicals as well.Here is a possible evolutionary 6 . Humans evolve d as social creature s that cooperate in groups to 7 food and protect themselves from wild animals. We were happier with a(n)8network of friends and family because this improved our chances of survival. But closely socializing groups are also breeding grounds for respiratory(呼吸的) 9 such as flu and colds, so we would have needed to increase the activity of the genes that fight these diseases.For those who were10 from society, however, infectious disease was less of a problem, and genes that help recover from physical injury may have been prioritize d instead of the ones that fight disease.1.

ASome are attracted to museums by the art and the culture－but if that isn’t enough,there is always the strange!Cancún Underwater MuseumNo need to hold your breath to see this one.The Cancún Underwater Museum is,as the name suggests,underwater.More than500sculptures anchored in the ocean off Mexico are meant to illustrate the interplay of art and nature.Visitors can either admire the works through a glass-bottom boat or take a scuba diving tour.Omaka Aviation Heritage CentreWith great attention to detail,New Zealand built the Omaka Aviation Heritage Centre, which exhibits original aircraft from the First and Second World Wars.Some belong to film director Sir Peter Jackson,who helped create the set designs with his team.Anyone interested in the pioneers of aviation should pay a visit to the museum in Blenheim.Tenement MuseumAt New York’s Tenement Museum,visitors can gain an insight into what life was like for immigrants and the working class in the city from the1860s through to the1980s.The museum opened in1992and offers guided tours of two tenement buildings with recreated rooms,where costumed‘residents’enact the daily lives of the city’s newcomers and workers over the period－leaps and bounds from the money makers of Wall Street.Cupnoodles MuseumThe Cupnoodles Museum in Yokohama,Japan,offers a treat:exhibits can be not only admired,but eaten.Visitors can work in the museum’s noodle workshop,refining creations with their favourite ingredients.While doing so,one can also learn the history of the ramen noodle, one of Japan’s most popular foods.1.What is special about the Cancún Underwater Museum?A.The strange name.B.The number of sculptures.C.Works about art and nature.D.Ways of visiting it.2.Which museum will attract visitors interested in hands-on activities?A.Cancún Underwater Museum.B.Omaka Aviation Heritage Centre.C.Tenement Museum.D.Cupnoodles Museum.3.What do the four museums have in common?A.They are about art and history.B.They display aircraft from world wars.C.They have unusual features.D.They record immigrants’daily lives.BElon Musk is a businessman,inventor and engineer and is undoubtedly,one of the leading figures in the world of technology.Musk was born in Pretoria,South Africa in1971.At the age of12,he taught himself how to programme computers.He was accepted to university in the United States where he completed a degree in Arts.After this,he started a PhD in physics at Stanford University.However,he dropped out to pursue his interest in startups and technology.He founded an online payment site that eventually would become a global company.In 2001Musk began meeting with scientists to discuss the possibility of human habitation on Mars. Using his own fortune,Musk founded his company that designs rockets and space vehicles.It was the first privately owned company to do so.In2012,the rockets made by the company docked with the International Space Station.Musk also received contracts from NASA,thus making history by proving that the concept of commercial space exploration was both possible and affordable.Another one of Musk’s innovations is the electric car.Musk started a company and became the CEO in2008.The company is named after Nicolai Tesla,the Serbian-American inventor and physicist,who is best known for designing the AC electrical system.The cars made by Musk’s company are designed to end the dependence on fossil fuels and so reduce the negative effects of climate change and air pollution from cars.Why does Musk devote himself to such innovations?By creating opportunities to explore new planets,Musk believes that in the event of a major catastrophe on Earth,there would be the potential for the human race to continue elsewhere.On Earth,Musk’s inventions are designed to find renewable,environment-friendly solutions to meet the challenge of an ever-growing global population.4.What can we learn about Musk?A.He learnt computer programmes from his teacher at12.B.He graduated from Stanford University with a degree in physics.C.He received government support to found the space company.D.He

considerate.D.Creative and responsible.CThough they may not know it,about half a billion people depend on the ecosystems created and sustained by corals.And with climate change threatening coral’s survival,marine scientist Enric Sala had a goal that might have seemed impossible.“We wanted to get into a time machine,go back hundreds of years and actually see a coral reef like they used to be everywhere,before we started exploiting,polluting and killing them,”Sala said.The goal was made possible during an expedition Sala led in2009.The team traveled to a corner of the South Pacific Ocean,to see if the almost untouched reefs held any clues to bringing damaged reefs in other parts of the ocean back to health.“The bottom was covered by thriving coral.Vivid colors surrounded me－purples,reds, oranges,yellows and greens.It was so beautiful,”Sala said.His team presented their findings to officials in the island country of Kiribati.The government took steps to protect the waters from fishing.But between2015and2016,record8.What seemingly impossible goal does Sala have?cating the public to protect the ecosystems.B.Calling on people to actively respond to climate change.C.Going to old days when corals were in healthy condition.D.Leading an expedition to the South Pacific Ocean.9.What does the underlined word“This”in paragraph6refer to?A.The bad news.B.The second diving.C.The reef’s restoration.D.The cheerful mood.10.What can we infer about Caribbean from Sala’s words?A.There is abundant fish in its ocean.B.Algae lie thick over corals there.C.Global warming does little harm to its marine life.D.Corals come back to life thanks to government’s efforts.11.What is the best title for the text?A.Kiribati—A Country of BiodiversityB.A Scientist’s Love for DivingC.The Coral Reef Restored ItselfD.Ocean Warming Bothered GovernmentD“Practice makes perfect”is a very popular expression.However,can we take this saying literally?Many scientific studies have sought to either prove or disprove this idea.One popular theory is that if a person practises for at least10,000hours,they will reach “perfection”,or become an expert in their field.This theory was made famous by Malcolm Gladwell in his2008best selling book,Outliers:The Story of Success.He mentioned the music group The Beatles and Microsoft co-creator Bill Gates.Although they all seemed to have lots of natural talent,they also clearly put in over10,000hours of practice before they became successful.Gladwell’s work was largely based on research done by Anders Ericsson,who argued that Gladwell misinterpreted his research.Firstly,Ericsson stated that10,000hours was an average figure.Some people needed far fewer than10,000hours,and others many more.More importantly,Ericsson said that just practising a lot was not enough;the type and quality of practice was also essential.He went on to explain the importance of“deliberate practice”,which is when a person practises a specific part of a skill in depth rather than practising a skill as a whole.A more recent study from Princeton University stated that practice only accounted for up to 26%of reaching an expert level.Many people say that natural talent has a large influence on becoming an expert.Another natural factor is physical superiority,which is especially evident in sports.IQ,personality,attitude,and starting age are decisive,too.But becoming an expert doesn’t equal instant success,which also relies on social and environmental factors.In conclusion,practice may not make perfect,but deliberate practice has been shown to lead to significant improvement.Based on Ericsson’s research,here are some tips on how to practise effectively:be motivated;make specific and realistic goals;work outside your comfort zone;be consistent and persistent;and get plenty of rest!For those wanting to become an expert in something,remember that being motivated is key－enjoy what you do and follow your passions.12.How did Gladwell support his idea?A.By listing numbers.B.By using examples.C.By interviewing famous people.D.By mentioning other researchers.13.Which of the following may Ericsson disagree with?A.Practice alone is far from enough.B.10,000hours of practice leads to success.C.Practice hours vary from person to person.D.Deliberate practice is much more effective.14.What does paragraph4mainly talk about?A.The role of practice.B.Factors in creating experts.C.The importance of natural talent.D.Warnings for experts.15.What is the author’s attitude to the idea“Practice makes perfect”?A.Favorable.B.Intolerant.C.Doubtful.D.Objective.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能填入空白处的最佳选项。

Duchess Nina launched a campaign to save as many animals as possible, and soon became known as the “animal heroine” for her effort s.Duchess Nina worked with local farmers and animal owners to relocate animals to safer areas, such as the Scottish Highlands. She also established a network of volunteers who helped to care for animals during the war. She organized feeding programs, medical care and transportation, ensuring that animals were well looked after even during the most difficult times. The most challenging aspect of her work was the shortage of food during the war. So she established a vegetable garden and used leftovers to create nutritious meals for animals. She also reached out to the public for donations of food and supplies, and was able to secure enough resources to keep animals healthy and fed.In addition to her work with domestic animals, Duchess Nina was also a strong advocate for wildlife conservation. She established a center for wild animals in Scotland, where she provided a safe place for deer, foxes and other animals that were threatened by the war. She also worked with local protection groups to protect natural habitats.Duchess Nina’s work during World War Ⅱwas not without its risks. She frequentlySadly, some people saw her efforts as a distraction from the war effort. However, she contin ued to work tirelessly for animals. After the war, Duchess Nina’s work was recognized by the government and she got an important award for her services to animals.4．How did Duchess Nina probably feel when she heard the government’s orders?A.

Dangerous.C. Faraway.D. Poor.Underwater travel is difficult and dangerous, but many people have to stay deep under the ocean. Thus, humans have come up with a few designs of vehicles to move around under the ocean. But what if there was a better way to travel?Hilary Bart-Smith, an engineer at the University of Virginia, thinks a vehicle that travels like a manta ray (魔鬼鱼) would be able to operate for long periods at sea. Manta rays which can grow up to 29 feet long are among the most efficient swimmers in the ocean. Different from animals and people pushing against water, manta rays swim by moving through the water with wing-like movements of their fins (鳍) . Efficiency means using less energy to move farther.Bart-Smith and other engineers at the University of Virginia had to find out what manta rays looked like on the inside to better understand how they move. They took X-rays to find out how a manta ray's fins are built. They found that a web of cartilage (软骨) stretches across each fin.Once the engineers knew how a manta ray's fin was constructed, they could build one of their own. They made a long row of metal struts with many hinges to imitate the manta ray's web of cartilage. The engineers put their design inside a flexible cover, shaped like a manta ray's fin. Then they tested it in the university swimming pool. They were happy to see that it swam just like a manta ray in the ocean.Engineers and scientists are still learning and experimenting with how to imitate these amazing animals. For now, engineers study their movements and learn from the most efficient swimmers in the ocean. Perhaps someday engineers will be able to build manta ray robots that are big enough to transport people.8．How do manta rays swim?A.By moving like birds.B.By swimming like humans.C.By swimming like other fishes.D.By pushing against water like animals. 9．What can we learn from the second and third paragraphs?A.Manta rays look like travel vehicles.B.Manta rays are the fastest swimmers.C.Manta rays can grow at least 29 feet long.D.Manta rays'fins consist of a web of cartilage.10．Why do the engineers study manta rays?A.To learn about their habits.B.To control manta ray robots.C.To protect marine creatures.D.To design undersea vehicles.11．What's the author's attitude towards the research?A.Supportive.B.Negative.C.Doubtful.D.Objective.The most obvious dog fetish (迷恋) today is the longing for cuteness. Almost every day you can see adorable pictures of dogs and other animals that will make you smile and say, "How cute! "It is a cultural phenomenon that the media scholar James Meese calls the "cute economy' which exists primarily on social media, is user-generated, and is heavily dominated by pictures of animals, especially pets. The goal is to generate a positive response, probably followed by a tap on the screen to “like” and “share”. We can click through image after image of cute animals doing cute things, feeling a little boost of good cheer.The marketing researchers have identified some of the most common categories of cuteness in online pet content: animals doing silly things；animals of extreme size；animals with unusual looks；and animals behaving in ways that seem human-like. Dogs and other animals in the "cute economy" are often further humanized by being dressed in clothing and accessorized (装饰) with hats, jewellery, nail polish and fur dyed a rainbow of colors. Users who post successfully and with some strategies can make money by doing so. Thus, certain dogs have become cuteness celebrities, with millions of devoted followers and paid content from advertisers.Unfortunately, the price of the "cute economy" comes at a serious cost. The cutest and most popular breeds tend to be those with the most significant risk of health and behavioral problems. Cuteness is often coupled with their discomfort. People are drawn to the cuteness of dogs with extremely foreshortened skulls and extremely short legs and awkwardly long bodies, such as the French bulldog and the corgi.Actually, there are well-established health issues. We should treat the "cute economy' with caution, like resisting the commodification (商品化) of appearance by opting out of social media channels promoting the "cute economy". We can also choose not to "like" or"share" images of dogs whose cuteness is linked with discomfort.
