They don’t act in the romantic ways that read in books or I see on TV. Sending flowers to each other on Valentine’s Day is even more 37. Finally,when my father is very tired from hard work，it is easy for him to lose his temper（发脾气）.One day，my mother was sewing quilt（被子）.I 38 sat down beside her and looked at her ＂Mom，is there love between you and Dad？＂I asked her in a low voice.My mother stopped and raised her head with 39 in her eyes. She didn’t an swer immediately .Then she bowed her head and continued to sew the quilt. I was very worried 40 I thought I had hurt her. At last my mother said:“Susan,Look at this thread（线）.Sometimes it 41，but most of it disappears in the quilt. The thread really makes the quilt 42and lasting (持久的）.If life is a quilt，then 43 should be a thread. It can hardly be seen anywhere or anytime,but it’s really there.＂I listened carefully but I couldn’t44 her until the next spring.

No appointment or registraton(登记）is required for families or groups of 20 people or less who wish to visit the university.Groups of more than 20 people should email tours@ to plan a visit.Take a tourTake a student-led tour of the university.But the dorms(宿舍），academic departments(学术部门），athletie facilities(体育设施）and libraries are not included on any of our tours.Attend a classThe Admnissions Office provides a list of the meeting times and locations of courses held during the academic year that visitors are welcome to attend.Speak with the Harvard teachersTeachers and other staff members are often glad to talk to people who have questions about our programs.It is best to write ahead directly to the office to arrange an appointment.For Seniors OnlyEat a meal with Harvard studentsDuring the academic year,high school seniors are our guests for one meal in Annenberg Hall, the first-year dining hall,or in one of the House dining halls if accompanied by a House resident.Stay overnight in one of the residence hallsOur office can arrange for high school seniors to stay with volunteer student hosts for one night, Monday through Thursday,from October Ist through early March.We need to hear from you by phone（617-495-1551)or by mail at least three wecks in advance for us to be able to confirm your stay with a host.51.Which of the following activities is NOT available(可获得的）to all visitors?A.A meeting in the Admissions Office.B.An opportunity(机会）to talk with a teacher.C.A tour of the university.D.A meal with Harvard students.52.Which place can be visited according to the text?A.Dorms.B.Dining halls.C.Libraries.D.Academic departments.3.Tbe text is most probably taken from a(n) _________.A.news reportB.advertisementC.feature storyD.school websiteBFlowers bloom (开花) only if they are planted in rich soil (土壤). We are similarly influenced by our environment. When our environment is bad, we may get sick physically or mentally. When our environment is supportive, we are more likely to thrive.Which factor (因素) of the environment influences us most? The answer is surprising. It's not the air we breathe every minute, nor the water we drink every hour; it's the people who we relate to every day. Every day we have connections with a lot of people in different situations. Some bring us happiness and provide us with loving support. Others bring us down and make us feel worthless.I have no doubt that one of the main keys to success is the people we know. It's nice to have people in your life who encourage you to better yourself, and who support you in your effort to make yourself a better person. People whose hearts are big enough to be happy for your success, rather than those who are so proud that they always wantto compete with you for success. People who see the potential (潜力) in you, even when you can't see it in yourself. These are the people who you should have on your team and in your life.So if you really long for success, look back at the people who come in and out of your life. Are most of the people you know supportive or unsupportive? When people around you aren't supportive, what kind of person do you become? Do you become shy, fearful, hateful and unhappy? When you connect with those who are supportive, what happens to you? Do you become open, lively, happy, strong and brave?Taylor loves music, and her dream is to become a singer one day. Whenever she talks about her big dream, none of her friends ever give her a fist bump (碰拳) to encourage her. Taylor always complains that her friends are not supportive enough but walking away from them leaves her in loneliness. She has no better choice but to keep hanging out with them. However, the more time she spends with them, the worse she feels about herself.We can all make a mindful decision about the environment around us. Relate more to those who make you happy being "you", or who support you in being "you". If you have to be around those who aren't supportive, then simply accept them as they are, without going after them for more than what they can provide to you.After all, each person has a seed (种子) in them to be the beautiful and awesome person they want to be. All they're waiting for is that supportive soil to allow them to fully bloom.1. The word "thrive" in Paragraph 1 probably means "_______".A: develop and growB: judge and warnC: mind and careD: fail and fear2. The writer mentions the five questions in Paragraph 4 to show that _______.A: some people always support what we do, some don'tB: we are included in a certain circle of friendsC: some people give us a sense of successD: we are influenced by people around us3. According to the passage, what could probably help make Taylor's dream come true?A: She needs to get a fist bump from her friends.B: She needs to keep hanging out with her friends.C: She needs to walk away from her unsupportive friends.D: She needs to continue talking about her dream with her friends.4. What does the passage mainly talk about?A: Saying no to unsupportive people.B: Letting the seed in you bloom.C: People around you could shape you.D: Influence of natural environment.CSince 2005, office workers in Japan have been allowed to wear T-shirts and shorts to work, instead of business suits and ties. Why? The answer is simple. The government is trying to reduce the use of air conditioners.Although air conditioners make our lives easier in hot weather, they can be bad for the environment. The coolers use a great deal of electricity to function and add to the effects of global warming.But it is a vicious (恶性的) cycle. As temperatures rise, there will be more need for air conditioning.Pawel Wargocki, an expert at the Technical University of Denmark, told The New York Times: "The air conditioning causes a huge problem to global climate and energy use." He added, "More and more air conditionersare used. It's very dangerous."We can't live with air conditioning. But the thing is, we can't live without it either. Scientific studies have shown that if indoor temperatures are high in hot weather, people will suffer from certain health problems and have a lower productivity.For example, when air conditioners were turned down in Japanese offices, the room temperature rose to 28 or higher. As a result, workers started getting headaches, and feeling sleepy.They couldn't give all their attention to work and their productivity dropped by 2 percent, which means they did 30 minutes less work each day, according to Shinichi Tanabe, a professor of architecture at Waseda University in Tokyo, Japan.So the best way to balance our comfort with environmental awareness is to change our expectations. Most of the time, it's not that the room is too hot, but that we are used to it being cooler."The temperature many Americans find most comfortable indoors in summer — 21C — feels uncomfortable to most Europeans, who find it too cold." said Michael Sivak, professor at a University of Michigan, US. He said it is because Europeans care more about the environment and are willing to accept a bit more heat in summer.Also, we can try to change our daily behavior. Open the windows to let air in, for example. Turning on the air conditioner is not the only way to make us feel comfortable.58. What did the Japanese government do to reduce the use of air conditioners?A: To allow the workers to wear T-shirts to work.B: To stop the workers from using air conditioners.C: To let people accept a bit more heat in summer.D: To ask people to open windows to let air in.59. The writer probably agrees that _______.A: most people will be sick without air conditionersB: global warming is mainly caused by air conditionersC: people have to be used to living without air conditionersD: we should change our expectations to protect environment60. We can learn from the passage that _______.A: Japanese office workers are less productive in summerB: Americans care less about environment than EuropeansC: People in Denmark believe air conditioners are dangerousD: Europeans accept a bit cooler than Americans in summer61. Which of the following would be the best title for the passage?A: Protect Environment: Is it time to change business suits?B: Protect Environment: Is it time to focus on temperature?C: Protect Environment: Shall we change our expectations?D: Protect Environment: Shall we stop using air conditioners?DDuring this age of technology, life moves fast and people only focus on what comes next, rather than living in the present. Often their daydreaming is centered on the "next" rather than the "now."Technology is all about what's next-the next innovation (创新）,the next platform or the next device. This is most obvious with the iPhone. The iPhone X has just released, but businessmen and customers are already thinking about the next, newest iPhone. I am already counting the days until I can upgrade my iPhone.Throughout my adolescence (青春期), almost every single one of my peers have been too wrapped up with the next "great" thing and put too much stress on themselves while losing sense of what is going on now or what they have achieved; it drives me totally crazy. Upon entering high school, I was excited to spend the next four years with my closest friends. Sadly, once I hit my sophomore year (高二), I began to worry about getting into a good college and what I needed to do for that to happen. By concentrating on what's next, I seem to be missing what's great about high school.Most students in high school look at education as a means to an end; something that will set them up for the next step. Due to this, they pay close attention to the teacher in class, not to enrich their knowledge, but to score high on the test, making them stronger candidates (候选人) for college. What is even more annoying is that universities are now forcing high school students to have a clear idea of what they want to do in life. Most colleges have specialized schools, such as business, nursing and education; in most cases, it is very difficult to switch out of or into one of the specialized schools. Therefore, high schoolers do actually have to focus on what's next.When I go to college, all I am thinking about is still what comes next; that is, how to land a great job out of college. Everyone around seems to be like me. Actually, I truly hope that people who are in this very similar situation can figure out a way to make the "now" as important, if not more important, than the "next" in life.Taking all of this into consideration, the concept of what comes next is far too ingrained (根深蒂固的) into important things of life, such as technology and education. If people keep racing from one thing to the next, life will pass them by and in a hurry; no one will be able to look back on what they have experienced or achieved, because life will have become a blur (模糊的记忆).62.The writer mentions the iPhone in Paragraph 2 to show that .A．the newest iPhone is always the bestB．young customers like new technologyC．the iPhone X attracts the most attentionD．technology is all about what comes next63.What can we learn from the passage?A．High schoolers are forced to have clear ideas about their future jobs.B．Few students pay close attention to the teacher to score high on tests.C．Thinking too much about the present gives students too much pressure.D．Different activities make the students stronger candidates for the college.64.The writer probably agrees that .A．students now care too much about unimportant things in lifeB．future achievements depend on your plan in your high schoolC．college education usually makes a great difference to most of the peopleD．people should live in the "now" rather than only look ahead to the "next"65.Which of the following would he the best title for the passage?A．Future, in Our Eyes B．Now, in a World of NextC．Past, Now and Future D．Technology, a Key to future五、词汇（本题共15小题；每小题1分，满分15分）A.请根据括号中的中文提示、英文释义或句意，写出句中所缺单词，使句子通顺66.

Among the diverse species that inhabit the rainforest, there is a group of creatures known as the “silent guardians.” These are the sloths, which maynot be the most active animals, but they are essential to the rainforest ecosystem.Sloths are slow-moving mammals that inhabit the trees of the rainforest. They are native to Central and South America and are well adapted to life in the canopy. Their slow pace and long limbs allow them to move gracefully through the branches. Sloths have a unique feeding habit, as they primarily consume leaves and flowers. This diet, combined with their slow metabolism, contributes to their slow movement.Despite their sedentary lifestyle, sloths play a significant role in the rainforest’s health. Here are a few reasons why they are considered the silent guardians of the forest:1.Seed Dispersal: Sloths are excellent seed dispersers. As they move from tree to tree, they eat leaves and flowers, but they cannot digest all the seeds. These seeds pass through their digestive system and are then excreted elsewhere, often at the base of a different tree. This helps to maintain genetic diversity and allows new plants to grow in different areas.2.Insect Control: Sloths are also beneficial for controlling insect populations. They feed on leaves, which can be infested with insects.
