In the early afternoon, when he was planning to go home, a fierce snowstormswept into the area. Unable to see far, he accidentally turned off the path. Before he knew it, Nicholas was lost, all alone! He didn’t have food, water, a phone, or other supplies. He was getting colder by the minute.Nicholas had no idea where he was. He tried not to panic. He thought about all the survival shows he had watched on TV. It was time to put the tips he had learned to use.He decided to stop skiing. There was a better chance of someone finding him if he stayed put. The first thing he did was to find shelter form the freezing wind and snow. If he didn’t, his body temperature would get very low, which could quickly kill him.Using his s kis, Nicholas built a snow cave. He gathered a huge mass of snow and dug out a hole in the middle. Then he piled branches on top of himself, like a blanket, to stay as warm as he could.By that evening, Nicholas was really hungry. He ate snow and drank water froma nearby stream so that his body wouldn’t lose too much water. Not knowing how much longer he could last, Nicholas did the only thing he could- he huddled(蜷缩) in his cave and slept.The next day, Nicholas went out to look for help, but he couldn’t find anyone. He followed his tracks and returned to the snow cave, because without shelter,he could die that night. On Tuesday, Nicholas went out to find help. He had walked for about a mile when a volunteer searcher found him. After two daysstuck in the snow, Nicholas was saved.Nicholas might not have survived this snowstorm had it not been for TV. He hadoften watched Grylls’ survival show. Man vs. Wild. That’s where he learned the tips that saved his life, In each episode(一期节目)of Man vs. Wild, Grylls is abandoned in a wild area and has to find his way out.When Grylls heard about Nicholas’ amazing deeds, he was super impressed that Nicholas had made it since he knew better than anyone how hard Nicholas had to work to stay alive.5. What happened to Nicholas one Sunday afternoon?A. He got lost.B. He broke his skis.C. He hurt his eyesD. He caught a cold6. How did Nicholas keep himself warm?A. He found a shelter.B. He lighted some branches.C. He kept on skiing.D. He built a snow cave.7. On Tuesday, Nicholas _____.A. returned to his shelter safelyB. was saved by a searcherC. got stuck in the snowD. stayed where he was8. Nicholas left Grylls a very deep impression because he _____.A. did the right things in the dangerous situationB. watched Grylls’ TV program regularlyC. created some tips for survivalD. was very hard-workingCBy the end of the century, if not sooner, the world’s oceans will be bluer and greener thanks to a warming climate, according to a new study.At the heart of the phenomenon lie tiny marine microorganisms(海洋微生物) called p hytoplankton. Because of the way light reflects off the organisms, these phytoplankton create colourful patterns at the ocean surface. Ocean colourvaries from green to blue, depending on the type and concentration of phytoplankton. Climate change will fuel the growth of phytoplankton in some areas, while reducing it in other spots, leading to changes in the ocean’s appearance.Phytoplankton live at the ocean surface, where they pull carbon dioxide(二氧化碳) into the ocean while giving off oxygen. When these organisms die, they bury carbon in the deep ocean, an important process that helps to regulate the global climate. But phytoplankton are vulnerable to the ocean’s warming trend.Warming changes key characteristics of the ocean and can affect phytoplankton growth, since they need not only sunlight and carbon dioxide to grow, but also nutrients.Stephanie Dutkiewicz, a scientist in MIT’s Center for Global Change Science, built a climate model that projects changes to the oceans throughout the century. In a world that warms up by 3℃, it found that multiple changes to the colour of the oceans would occur. The model projects that currently blue areas with little phytoplankton could become even bluer. But in some waters, such as those of the Arctic, a warming will make conditions riper for phytoplankton, and these areas will turn greener. “Not only are the quantities of phytoplankton in the ocean changing. ” she said, “but the type of phytoplankton is changing.”And why does that matter? Phytoplankton are the base of the food web. If certain kinds begin to disappear from the ocean, Dutkiewicz said, “it will change the type of fish that will be able to survive.” Those kinds of changes could affect the food chain.Whatever colour changes the ocean experiences in the coming decades will probably be too gradual and unnoticeable, but they could mean significant changes. “It’ll be a while before we can statistically show that the changes are happening because of climate change,” Dutkiewicz said, “but the change in the colour of the ocean will be one of the early warning signals that we really have changed our planet.”9. What are the first two paragraphs mainly about?A. The various patterns at the ocean surface.B. The cause of the changes in ocean colour.C. The way light reflects off marine organisms.D. The efforts to fuel the growth of phytoplankton.10. What does the underlined word “vulnerable” in Paragraph 3 probably mean?A. Sensitive.B. Beneficial.C. Significant.D. Unnoticeable.11. What can we learn from the passage?A. Phytoplankton play a declining role in the marine ecosystem.B. Dutkiewicz’s model aims to project phytoplankton changes.C. Phytoplankton have been used to control global climate.D. Oceans with more phytoplankton may appear greener.12. What is the main purpose of the passage?A. To assess the consequences of ocean colour changes.B. To analyse the composition of the ocean food chain.C. To explain the effects of climate change on oceans.D. To introduce a new method to study phytoplankton.D"I do hope that by writing about their stories, I’m helping things change for the better. ”Li Xueqing, a China Daily journalist, based in New York CityThey’re neither medical workers in close contact with the novel coronavirus nor government officials who receive the latest updates of the situation – yet they’re keeping us informed of the development of the epidemic. They are the media, and their eyes are far-seeing.Zhu Xingxin is one such member of the media: a photographer with China Daily. He visited Tongji Hospital affiliated with Tongji Medical College of Huazhong University of Science and Technology in Wuhan on Feb 3 to report on the lives of medical workers.Before entering the isolation ward (隔离病房), Zhu had to put on protective gear (装备) like the doctors: a protective suit, a surgical mask, goggles (护目镜), disposable (一次性的) gloves and shoe covers. He described it as “stuffy (闷热的)” with all the layers on. “I felt anoxic (缺氧的) under the masks,” he wrote on China Daily. “So I lowered my voice and slowed down my motions, trying to make myself feel better.”The eyes of the media are not just here to see, but also to scrutinize.On Feb 9, for example, a bus in Wuhan carrying severely ill patients was caught in traffic with no one guiding them and no hospitals claiming them. The incident was witnessed by Global Times journalists and was soon reported online. It ended with all the patients being properly settled i n hospitals and officials in charge being held responsible. But it’s possible that without journalists this incident would never have been exposed.Li Xueqing, a China Daily journalist, based in New York City, is also aware of the media’s role as a watchdog (监督者). She wrote a story last month about a group of Wuhan University alumni (校友) in New York City who donated medical equipment to hospitals in Wuhan. She was impressed by how they managed tocollect such a large amount of supplies and build an international shipping pathway in such a short time. Yet she was also disturbed by how all the complex (繁复的) paperwork and bureaucratic (官僚主义的) procedures added to their already heavy workload.“I do hope that by writing about their stories, I’m helping things change for the better,” said Li.Indeed, the media is like a pair of eyes watching out for us as they report on the world’s most important news.（选自Reuters）13. By describing Zhu Xingxin’s experience in Wuhan, the author intends to show _______.A. what journalists should pay attention to while workingB. how medical workers fight against the virusC. the efforts journalists make to report on the frontlineD. the importance of the media in fighting the epidemic14. What happened after Global Times journalists reported what they had witnessed on Feb 9?A. All the patients received proper treatment.B. The officials apologized for what had happened.C. The journalists were warned by the officials.D. The patients received donations from overseas.15. How does Li Xueqing hope to improve the alumni’s donation process?A. Making shipping methods more convenient.B. Simplifying paperwork and procedures.C. Creating more professional quality tests.D. Reducing the heavy workloads of medical workers fighting the virus.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。

He didn’t look like any doctor I’d ever known. He never shouted at us for playing in his yard. I remembered him as a neighbor who was nicer than anyone else in the neighborhood.When Dr. Gibbs was happy, he was planting trees. And his life’s goal was to make it a forest. Dr. Gibbs had some interesting theories about planting. He talked about trees that weren’t watered would grow deep roots in search of water. So he never watered his trees. He planted an oak (橡树) and, instead of watering it every morning, he beat it with the rolled-up newspaper. I asked him why he did that, and he said it was to get the tree’s attention.Dr. Gibbs died a couple of years. Every now and again, I walk by his house and look at the trees that he planted twenty-five y ears ago. They’re very strong now.I planted a couple of trees a few years later. I watered them regularly and took good care of them. Whenever a cold wind blows, they shake their leaves and branches.The funny thing about those trees of Dr. Gibbs was that difficulty seemed to help them in ways comfort and ease never could.1．What was Dr. Gibbs’ life goal?A.

To build a forest.2．One of Dr. Gibbs’ theories about planting was that ______.A. he often talked to the treesB. he never watered the treesC. he kicked the trees heavilyD. he buried the leaves around the roots 3．What does the writer mainly want to tell us?A. Trees are not as weak as we think.B. Difficulty is necessary for growth.C. We should listen to others’ adviceD. Planting trees is good for the environment.3.（8分）New law lets students sleep inWhen your alarm clock rings and you drag yourself out of bed, you probably wonder: Why on earth does school have to start so early?Fortunately, there is a new law to back you up―or better still, science.A law in California, passed on Oct 13, requires that public middle schools begin classes no earlier than 8:00 am and that high schools start no earlier than 8:30 am. The law will go into effect by July 1, 2022.Starting school at 8:00 or 8:30 in the morning may not sound like too big of a change, but it could mean one more hour of sleep for students who used to start school at 7:30 or even earlier.“The e ffect of that one hour is something they will be feeling as 40-year-old adults,” Sumit Bhargava, a sleep expert at Stanford University told The New York Times. He said that not having enough sleep can affect students’ mental health and increase the risk of getting fat and diabetes (糖尿病).In the short run, students’ school performances should improve almost immediately. Kyla Wahlstrom, a researcher at the University of Minnesota’s College of Education, found that students who have enough sleep are more alert (机敏的) in class and get better grades.Some might say that urging students to go to bed earlier could have been a much easier solution than changing the school timetable across an entire state. But according to the American Academy of Sleep Medicine, teenagers go through biological changes when they enter puberty (青春期), which makes it difficult for them to fall asleep before 11: 00 pm. So when school starts at 8: 00 or earlier, they can hardly get the ideal 8.5-9.5 hours of sleep that experts suggest they need to do their best in the daytime.This is why when the new law came out, its author, Anthony Portantino, said, “Generations of children will come to appreciate ( 感激) this historic day and our governor for taking bold action.1.When should public high schools start classes according to the California’s new law?A.No earlier than 8:30 am..B.No earlier than 8:00 am.C.No earlier than 7:30 am.D.No earlier than 9:00 am.2.What can we learn from Bhargava’s words?A. The amount of sleep people need changes with age.B. Lack of sleep could lead to health problems.C. Lack of sleep affects adults more than children.D. Sleep problems are one of the leading causes of diabetes3.What do we know about teenagers’ sleep patterns?A. Ideally, they need eight hours of sleep a night..B. Less sleep is needed when they enter pubertyC. They often wake up at midnight due to biologicalD. They may have difficulty falling asleep before11.pm4.Where does this passage probably come from?A. A n ewspaperB. A b iographyC. A textbookD. An advertisement4.（8分）Many people have long dreamed of being able to fly around as simply as riding a bicycle. Yet the safety and strength of a flying bike was always a big problem. Over the past 10 years，development in technology has moved the dream of personal flying vehicles closer to reality. Now，two groups of inventors say such vehicles may be available soon.The British company Malloy Aeronautics has developed a prototype(原型) of its flying bicycle. Grant Stapleton，marketing sales director of Malloy Aeronautics，says the Hoverbike is able to get in and out of small spaces very quickly.“It can be moved across continents very quickly because it can be folded and packed，” he adds.Mr. Stapleton says safety was the company’s main concern. He says the designers solved the safety issue by using overlapping rotors(交叠式旋翼) to power the vehicle.The company is testing a fullsize prototype of the Hoverbike，which will most likely be used first by the police and emergency rescue teams.In New Zealand，the Martin Aircraft Company is also testing a fullsize prototype of its personal flying device，called Jetpack(喷气背包).It can fly for more than 30 minutes，up to 1,000 meters high and reach a speed of 74 kilometers per hour.Peter Coker is the CEO of Martin Aircraft Company. He said Jetpack “is built around safety from the start”.In his words，“reliability is the most important element of it. We have safety built into the actual structure itself，very sim ilar to a Formula One racing car.”Jetpack uses a gasolinepowered engine that produces two powerful jet streams. Mr Coker says it also has a parachute(降落伞) that can be used should there be an emergency. “It starts to work at very low altitude and actually saves both the aircraft and the pilot，” he adds. Mr Coker says Jetpack will be ready for sale soon.1.We can learn from the passage that the Hoverbike __________.A. has been used by the police and emergency rescue teamsB. can be transported quickly after being folded and packedC. can hardly get in and out of small spaces quicklyD. can fly for over 30 minutes，up to 1,000 meters high2.The writer uses the example of Formula One racing car to show that .A.Jetpack’s engine is powerfulB.Jetpack is very safe and reliableC.Jetpack’s actual structure is uniqueD.Jetpack can reach a great speed and height3.The underlined word “it” in the last paragraph refers to “ ”.A.the parachuteB.the engineC.JetpackD.the jet stream4.What is th e author’s main purpose of writing the passage?A.To describe the problems of inventing flying vehicles.B.To show the differences between the two personal flying vehicles..C.To introduce the latest development of flying vehicles.D.To advertise the two personal flying vehicles.二、阅读七选五（本题共计1小题，总分10分）5.（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,并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。
