浙江省金华市十校联考2018-2019学年高二上学期期末英语试题及答案解析
浙江省金华市十校联考2018~2019学年高二上学期期末英语试题注意事项：1．答题前填写好自己的姓名、班级、考号等信息；2．请将答案正确填写在答题卡上。
第I卷（选择题)一、阅读理解Right now，social media is flooded with photos of people with their celery（芹菜）juice．They say that the green drink cured them of headaches，skin conditions，and cleared poisons in their bodies，and left them with a feeling of pure joy．Celery is suddenly in the spotlight．It's got a respectable amount of vitamin C and B，and has a little bit of fiber．It's full of water and refreshing．I've no doubt that celery juice helps people feel more fresh and juicy in the morning．And I know from personal experience that a green drink is a nice，light way to start the day．But the magic statements about celery juice leave me more than a little doubt．If celery juice did，indeed，wash viruses out of the body and cure headaches，wouldn't the world be free of headache medicine？And the medical explanations surrounding celery juice's powers just don't make sense一for instance，that drinking celery juice increases bile（胆汁）or that it "restores your central nervous system"．Huh？There are also drawbacks of juicing in general．It's quicker to drink juice than it is to eat fruits and vegetables，so it may feel less satisfying than eating whole food．You also lose the fiber when juicing．Celery juice is made by putting the stalks （茎秆）through a juicer or processing them in a regular fruit mixer and straining the mixture through cheesecloth or a nut-milk bag，leaving all the fiber behind．It's stated that removing the fiber from celery makes the healing powers stronger，but unlike celery juice，fiber is actually proven to be good for you．The benefits range from keeping you regular to lowering blood pressure．To get these fiber benefits，throw a stalk of celery into your favorite fruit drink，so you're getting the whole vegetable，not just the juice．My two cents：If you want to try celery juice，there aren't drawbacks beyond the cost and the taste．But don't set your expectations for healing too high．1．According to the author，celery juice ______ ．A．is only a kind of green drinkB．has great practical values in useC．can cure people of some diseasesD．contains less fiber than other fruit juice2．What is the author's purpose of writing the text？______A．To show the value of celery．B．To promote a new kind of drink．C．To persuade people to drink green drink．D．To show his opinion on drinking celery juice．3．What can be a suitable title for this passage？______A．Is It Right to Be a Vegetarian？B．Is Celery Juice A Magic Cure？C．Is Social Media Telling the Truth？D．Is Celery Juice Better Than Celery？第II卷（非选择题）二、提纲类作文4．假定你是李华．你校将举行一次英文歌曲大赛, 准备邀请你校外籍教师George担任大赛的评委，请你代表学生会用英文给他写一封信．主要内容包括：1．提出邀请；2．介绍大赛；3．期望回复．注意：1．词数80左右；2．可以适当增加细节，以使行文连贯．___________________________________________________________________________

the gentlest，most loving and caring dad in the world-until we had an argument．During those moments，my words surely never reached his "open mind" because his ears were closed．There was no point trying to argue with my dad．He always had the last word．I could never win．At one time，when my father refused to understand that I needed the privacy of a phone in my room，my frustration turned to tears．He ended our "discussion"，leaving me silently defeated and miserable．With the hope that his eyes would be more open than his ears，I began to write a note that began with "Dear Daddy"．In a most touching tone，I told him how much I respected his opinion，and how much I hated to talk back to him．1 stressed that I cherished our relationship and，above all，I loved him deeply．It was only minutes beforeI heard a knock at my door．When I saw the look on my father's face，I knew that my note had melted his temper and touched his heart．The victory of winning my dad's permission was sweet．This morning I woke up at a text message from one of my best friends，which said "Who's excited for a snow day？" My initial reaction was why on earth we would have a snow day．It was not supposed to snow last night．My second reaction was that that was not true．So I called my dad to make sure whether what I heard was correct．Sure enough it was．After finding this news out，I fell back asleep almost immediately．My dad had said to call him when I woke up．About two hours passed，and I woke up，calling him as planned．No answer．I figured he was just out for business，so I left a message．I called him multiple times on his work，house，and cell phones．Still，no answer．Around noon I got worried．He should have answered something by now．Thinking of his suffering a stomach flu two weeks ago，I decided I would go to make sure he was okay．注意：1．所续写短文的词数应为150左右；2．至少使用5个短文中标有下划线的关键词语；3．续写部分分为两段，每段的开头语已为你写好；4．续写完成后，请用下划线标出你所使用的关键词语．After I got over there，I was worried．___________________________________________________________________________ ___________________________________________________________________________

AEuropeans should try to stay indoors if ash from Iceland's volcano starts settling, the World Health Organization warned Friday as small amounts fell in Iceland, Scotland and Norway.WHO spokesman Daniel Epstein said the microscopic(微小的) ash is potentially dangerous for people when it starts to reach the Earth because inhaled(吸入) particles can enter the lungs and cause respiratory problems. And he also said Europeans who go outside might want to consider wearing a mask.Other experts, however, weren't convinced the volcanic ash would have a major effect on peoples' health and said WHO's warnings were "hysterical." They said volcanic ash was much less dangerous than cigarette smoke or pollution. Volcanic ash is made of fine particles of fragmented volcanic rock. It is light gray to black and can be as fine as talcum powder. During a volcanic eruption, the ash can be breathed deep into the lungs and cause irritation even in healthy people. But once it falls from a greater distance — like from the cloud currently hovering above Europe — its health effects are often minimal, experts say."Not all particles are created equal," said Ken Donaldson, a professor of respiratory toxicology at the University of Edinburgh, "In the great scheme of things, volcanic ash is not all that harmful." And he said most Europeans' exposure tovolcanic ash would be negligible and that only those in the near districts of the Icelandic volcano would likely be at risk.Dr. Stephen Spiro, a professor of respiratory medicine and deputy chair of the British Lung Foundation, said the further the particles travel, the less dangerous they will be. "The cloud has already passed over northern Scotland and we haven't heard of any ill effects there," he said. Spiro said to wear masks or stay indoors to avoid volcanic ash was "over the top" and "a bit hysterical."1. The text is mainly about ______.A. the effect of volcanic ashB. the health risk of volcanic ashC. the disadvantages of volcanic ashD. the opinions on health risk of volcanic ash2. Which one is true according to Paragraph3?______.A. The volcanic ash’s effects on Europeans were little.B. The ash caused irritation even in healthy people.C. Other experts thought WTO’S warning s were useful.D. The volcanic ash was more dangerous than cigarette smoke or pollution.3. The underlined word “hysterical” in Paragraph3 most probably means ______.A. amazingB. practicalC. valuableD. overstated4. What can we learn from the passage?______.A. The volcanic ash wouldn’t be harmful to people.B. All experts thought the volcanic ash did great harm to our health.C. People close to the volcano would likely be at risk according to some experts.D. Europeans should stay indoors because Iceland's volcano starts settling.BToo much tourism can be a problem. If tourism grows too quickly, people must leave other jobs to work in the tourism industry. This means that other parts of the country’s economy can suffer.On the other hand, if there is not enough tourism, people can lose jobs.Businesses can also lose money. It costs a great deal of money to build large hotels, airports, air terminals, first- class roads, and other support facilities(配套设施)needed by tourist attractions. For example, a major international class tourism hotel can cost as much as 50 thousand dollars per room to build. If this room is not used most of the time, the owners of the hotel lose money.Building a hotel is just a beginning. There must be many support facilities as well, including roads to get to the hotel, electricity, sewers to handle waste, and water. All of these support facilities cost money. If they are not used because there are not enough tourists , jobs and money are lost.5.Too much tourism can cause all these problems EXCEPT ________ .A. a bad effect on other industriesB. a change of tourists’ customsC. over - crowdedness of places of interestD. pressure on traffic6.It can be inferred from the text that ________ .A. the author doesn’t like tourism developing so fastB. local people will benefit from tourist attractionC. other parts of a country’s economy won’t benefit from tourism muchD. we can't build too many support facilities7.The author thinks it is good for local people to know that tourism will ________ .A. waste a lot of moneyB. weaken their economyC. help establish their customsD. help improve their lifeCImagine a mass of floating waste is two times the size of the state of Texas. Texas has a land area of more than 678 000 square kilometers. So it might be difficult to imagine anything twice as big.All together, this mass of waste flowing in the North Pacific Ocean is known as the Great Pacific Ocean Garbage Patch. It weighs about 3 500 000 tons. The waste includes bags，bottles and containers—plastic products of all kinds.The eastern part of the Great Pacific Ocean Garbage Patch is about l 600 kilometers west of California. The western part is west of the Hawaiian Islands andeast of Japan. The area has been described as a kind of oceanic desert，with light winds and slow moving water currents. The water moves so slow that garbage from all over the world collects there.In recent years，there have been growing concerns about the floating garbage and its effect on sea creatures and human health. Scientists say thousands of animals get trapped in the floating waste，resulting in death or injury. Even more die from a lack of food or water after swallowing pieces of plastic. The trash can also make animals feel full，lessening their desire to eat or drink.The floating garbage also can have harmful effects on people. There is an increased threat of infection of disease from polluted waste，and from eating fish that swallowed waste. Divers can also get trapped in the plastic.Its existence first gained public attention in l997. That was when racing boat captain and oceanographer Charles Moore and his crew sailed into the garbage while returning from a racing event. Five years earlier，another oceanographer learned of the trash after a shipment of rubber duckies got lost at sea. Many of those toys are now part of the Great Pacific Ocean Garbage Patch.In August，2009，a team from the University of California，San Diego became the latest group to travel to it. They were shocked by the amount of waste they saw. They gathered hundreds of sea creatures and water samples to measure the garbage patch’s effect on ocean environment.8.What do we know about the Great Pacific Ocean Garbage Patch?A. It is made up of various kinds of plastic products.B. It is a solid mass of floating waste materials.C. It lies l60 000 kilometers east of California.D. It is described as a kind of oceanic desert.9.Why do people pay attention to the Great Pacific Ocean Garbage Patch?A. Because it may prevent the flow of ocean water.B. Because the polluted plastic articles will move up the food chain.C. Because it may be from an island in the pacific.D. Because ships may be trapped in the floating waste.10.Which column can you find the passage on a newspaper?A. Sports and entertainment.B. Media and culture.C. Environment and society.D. Science and technology.第二部分完形填空（共20小题；每小题1分，满分20分）阅读下面的短文，从短文后各题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。

AHoney from the African forest is not only a kind of natural sug ar,it is also delicious. Most people,and many animals,like eati ng it However,the only way for them to get that honey is to fin d a wild bees' nest and take the honey from it. Often，these nests are high up in trees,and it is difficult to find them. I n parts of Africa, though, people and animals looking for hone y have a strange and unexpected helper -- a little bird called a honey guideThe honey guide does not actually like honey, but it does like the wax in the beehives (蜂房). The little bird cannot reach this wax, which is deep inside the bees' nest. So, when it finds a suitable nest, it looks for so meone to help it. The honey guide gives a loud cry that attract s the attention of both passing animals and people.

When they finally arrive at the nest, the follower reaches i n to get at the delicious honey as the bird patiently waits and watches. Some of the honey, and the wax, always fall to the g round, and this is when the honey guide takes its share. Scientists do not know why the honey guide likes eating the w ax, but it is very determined in its efforts to get it. The birds se em to be able to smell wax from a long distance away.

The so-called shopping method has become common practice these days, but that can put your wallet under a lot of pressure. So ifyou are sad and feel like shopping, don’t!According to the recent study, sadness leads to self-focus (自我为中心的) thinking. In other words, sad people are willing to spend m ore money on the same thing than calm people. "It is the result of sadness and self-focus, and it turns out that sadness leads to an increase in sel f-focus," said Cynthia Cruder. "What we think is that sad and se lf-focused people are feeling pretty bad about themselves, and one way to deal with this is buying material goods."In a perfect situation, when you know you are sad, you should avoid(避免) making decisions and spending money. Sounds simple? S adly, it is not. Most people don’t even know they’re sad, the st udy shows, and they are not aware that their feelings influenc e their decisions.What to do? The study showed that those who watched a trag edy(悲剧) were more likely to spend three times more money for a si mple bottle of water than those who watched a comedy. The s olution: well, for starters, don’t go shopping! If you can’t help it, it is probably better to see a doctor.5.When you can’t help shopping after feeling sad, you’d better _______.A. talk to your friendsB. go to the store directlyC. go to bed and restD. go to hospital and get checked out by a doctor6.We can learn from the passage that________.A. sad and self-focused people are poorB. sad people make important decisions easilyC. tragedies may make people buy more expensive goodsD. sad people are less confident than calm people7.What would be the best title for this passage?A. The Loss of Money Caused by SadnessB. Shopping is Not the Best Way to Cure SadnessC. A Study About How to Stay in a Good MoodD. How to Make Decisions When You Are SadCYou Are What You EatKeeping better eating habits can help you reduce (减少) disease. A healthy eating plan means choosing the right f ood to eat and preparing foods in a healthy way._____________________________Do you often change your toothbrush? Maybe you think it is n ot necessary. A study shows old toothbrushes bring disease. You should often change your toothbrush.ExerciseSwimming,running, skating,skiing, dancing, walking and som e other activities can help you keep healthy. You should e xercise at least three times a week and for twenty minutes or more each time. Do itPlan Out Your LifeYou should have breakfast before you go to school. Have a pr oper (合适的) meal for lunch.Follow a health diet. .8.What's the passage mainly about?A. Healthy food.B. Healthy lifestyle (生活方式).C.

They are enabling texts, emails and basic web access to AT&T customers with mobile phones that use its 4G LTE network.The balloons, more than 60,000 feet above land are called HBAL199 and HBAL237.They use an algorithm (运算法则) that puts them in the best position to deliver signal byrising and falling to ride wind currents. They are solar-powered and only provide signal during the day.Several more balloons are on their way from Nevada. Alphabet has been given authority by the Federal Communications Commission to send up to 30 balloons to serve the hard-hit area, according to Libby Leahy, spokeswoman for Alphabet’s X, Alphabet’s division for futuristic technologies.The head of Project Loon Alastair Westgarth said in a blog post that Project Loon is“still an experimental technology and we’re not quite sure how well it will work,”though it has been tested since last year in Peru following flooding there.Hurricane Maria destroyed the U.S. land of 3.4 million people since its landing last month. Spokesman Ricardo Rossello said the number of death had risen to 49. Less than a fifth of the island has electricity, half its cellphone towers are still not functioning, schools are closed and more than 4,000 are in shelters, according to a government website.AT&T spokesman Jeffrey Kobs said the company has set up 14 temporary cell sites,and since Friday more than 60 percent of the population was connected via mobile network,partly due to the help of government groups and Project Loon.Other technology companies such as Cisco, Facebook and Tesla have also offered help or have sent teams to the island to improve communications and restore power.24.Which of the following statements about Project Loon balloons is TRUE?A.They can work day and night.B.They are able to work at any height.C.They have been used in Peru and U.S.D.They are developed by Cisco, Facebook and Tesla.25.Project Loon balloons helped people in Puerto Rico by .A.sending rescue workers to themB.delivering mobile phones to themC.knocking out the cellphone towersD.providing necessary internet access十校高三英语试题卷要4 渊共10 页冤26.From the passage, is most likely to be a government spokesperson.A.Jeffrey KobsB. Ricardo RosselloC. Libby LeahyD. Alastair WestgarthCWe’re all looking for the right answers. We look in self-help books and churches and seek out teachers and therapists (治疗学家) and even hire fortune-tellers. But what if I told you the best way to find what you’re looking for is to stop looking? Seriously. Sometimeswe look and search too much. Our minds are filled with knowledge and facts but we never find peace because we can’t stop thinking!Many Buddhist teachers refer to this phenomenon as’monkey-mind’because it’s similar to the way a monkey will swing from tree to tree tasting a banana from each one before dropping it and moving to the next tree. Like these monkeys, we often jump from thought to thought without ever really being in the present moment.The cure for this is to make a conscious (有意识的) effort to quiet the mind. Or take what I like to refer to as a ‘mental vacation’. There are many different techniques for this but the easiest way is to find a quiet place, close your eyes and simply concentrate on your breathing. That’s it.Now, when your mind starts to wander(and it will), do not be too much concerned. Let that thought float away like a cloud in the sky and bring your attention back to your breathing. The goal is to quiet your mind as much as possible. With a little bit of practice you’ll get good at this! When you first start out try it for five or ten minutes. Even in this short amount of time you’ll notice a difference in the way you think and feel. But withdaily practice you’ll see major improvements in your physical and mental health.There are many reasons for this but all we really need to know is that a calm mind is a vibrant mind. It is alive and full of ideas with creative energy. It has the ability to perfectly control millions of activities happening at the same time without any conscious effort.So next time you can’t find the answer you’re looking for, remember to stop swinging from tree to tree. Take a deep breath, quiet your mind and enjoy every precious minute of your mental vacation.27.According to the text, in what way are we humans similar to monkeys?A.We like jumping from tree to tree.B.We have a taste for fresh bananas.C.We feel a strong desire for knowledge.D.We keep jumping from thought to thought.28.What does the author suggest to find our peace of mind?A.Solve every problem we have.B.Relax and focus on our breathing.十校高三英语试题卷要5 渊共10 页冤C.Swing from tree to tree like a monkey.D.Take a few days off and have a vacation.29.The underlined word “vibrant” (Paragraph 5) is closest in meaning to .A.livelyB. peacefulC. curiousD. complex30.The text is mainly about .A.The benefits of taking vacations.B.The importance of peace of mind.C.The cure for monkey mind.D.The risks of monkey mind.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. 选项中有两项为多余选项.It is important that you teach your baby to read as young as possible. Why? Because there is simply no better time in a child’s life for learning than when they are between 3months old and their 5th birthday. 31 As a result, they are sponges(海绵) for knowledge.Moreover, being able to read is the basis for any successful education, so the earlier theystart, the better. All too often, parents leave educating their children up to schools, which probably explains why the United States is currently ranked 18th in its rate of reading and writing.Teaching your baby to read provides brain exercise during the very time when his or her brain is developing. It has also been shown to increase the baby’s IQ. The sooner they begin to read, the sooner they can begin to learn other subjects. This way, by the time your children begin school, they will already know what’s being taught, and will be put on the fast track. 32 One of the cases that really began to bring the fact that babies can learn to read to the public’s attention was 17-month-old Elizabeth Barrett. 33 She was given a series of words and even sentences that she could read quite well. Her parents had been reading to her since she was born and had provided her with a very early education.Reading is the most important thing to teach babies at a young age. 34 Learning can be fun at such an early age, and it can be accomplished so easily that they won’t have to struggle in order to learn. In fact, when you use the proper materials, they will look forward to learning.If you’re interested in teaching your baby to read, the best way to start is by spending just a few minutes a day. 35 Simply show your baby matching picture on the opposite side. There are also videos that help to teach babies to read.There is no better time to teach your baby to read than the present. Begin by looking for learning materials that your baby might enjoy.十校高三英语试题卷要6 渊共10 页冤第三部分语言运用(共两节,满分45 分)第一节:完形填空(共20 个小题:每小题1.5 分,满分30 分)阅读下面短文,从短文后各题所给的四个选项(A,B,C 和D)中,选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项Scarlet was out late that night.

Meanwhile, they are the safest method for getting kids to and from school, according to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA).Children are 70 times more likely to arrive at school safely on the school bus than if they had traveled to school driving themselves or riding with friends.These school buses meet more of the nation’s motor vehicle safety standards than any other vehicles on the road. Also, several new technologies available today are making school buses even safer, such as video cameras on the inside and outside, stop arm cameras, GPS十校高三英语试题卷要9 渊共10 页冤tracking and collision lessening systems. Another safety tool on school buses is high seat backs, closely-spaced seats and energy-absorbing seating.But even the safeness of school buses would not completely sum up why children are safer when riding the big, yellow bus. The bus is only as safe as the professional men and women who drive them. All drivers must obtain a Class B or C Commercial Driver’sLicense (CDL). They are randomly tested for alcohol and drugs, usually have their driving record checked, and are given the same review for criminal history as teachers and other employees who have contact with students. In order to serve as a school bus driver, most applicants are required to successfully complete a training course, along with instruction in the classroom and behind the wheel.School buses are safe for the environment, not only because each bus replaces 36passenger cars that would, but for the buses, be on the road taking and picking up school children. Additionally, school buses use alternative green fuels like natural gas, and electric power.Todd Monteferrario, President of the National School Transportation Association, said parents should remember that the safest and smartest choice is to put their children on the big yellow bus when they can.十校高三英语试题卷要10 渊共10 页冤十校高三英语试题卷要11 渊共10 页冤。

But soon, the importance of English idioms was shown in an amusing experience.One day, I happened to meet an Englishman on the road, and soon we began to talk. As I was talking about how I was stud ying English, the foreigner seemed to be astonished. Gently s haking his head, shrugging his shoulders, he said, “You don't say!”“You don't say!” I was puzzled. I thought, perhaps this is not an appropriate topic (适当的话题). “Well, I'd better change the topic.” So I said to him. “Well,shall we talk about the Great Wall？ By the way, have you ev er been there？”“Certainly, everyone back home will laugh at me if I leave China without seeing it. It was magnificent.” He w as deep in thought when I began to talk like a tourist guide. “T he Great Wall is one of the wonders in the world. We are very proud of it.” Soon I was interrupted again by his words: “You don't say!” I couldn't help asking, "Why do you ask me not to t alk about it？" "Well, I didn't request you to do so," he answered, greatly su rprised. I said, "Didn't you say ‘you don't say’？”Hearing this, t he Englishman laughed to tears. He began to explain, “‘You d on't say’ actually means ‘really!’ It is an expression of surprise .Perhaps you don't pay attention to English idioms.” Only then did I know I had made a fool of myself. Since then I have bee n more careful with idiomatic expressions. Remember: what t he English teachers said is always right to us students.8. A year ago, I paid no attention to English idioms because _ ______.A. English idioms were not importantB. I was not careful with English idiomsC. my teacher didn't emphasize the importance of themD.

They live in groups, and speak to each other in their own language. In this way they are like other animals , such as bees and birds. But dolphins are very different from almost all land animals. Their brain is nearly the same size as our own, and they live a long time --- at least twenty or thirty years.Like some animals, dolphins use sound to help them find their way around. They also use these sounds to talk to each othe r and to help them find food. We now know they do not use th eir ears to receive these sounds, but the lower part of the mou th, called the jaw.Strangely, dolphins seem to like man, and for thousands of ye ars there have been stories about the dolphin and its friendshi p with people.There is a story about sailors in the 19th century. In a danger ous part of the sea off the coast of New Zealand, they learnt t o look for a dolphin called Jack. From 1871 to 1903 Jack met every boat in the area and showed it the way. Then in 1903 a passenger on a boat called The Penguin shot and wounded J ack. He recovered and for nine years more continued to guide all ships through the area－except for The Penguin. Today, some people continue to kill dolphins, but many countr ies of the world now protect them and in these places it is aga inst the law to kill them.12. Dolphins are different from many other animals in that the y _____.A. live in groupsB. have their own languageC. are warm-bloodedD. have large brains13.Which of the following does the dolphin use to help it find it s way around?A. Its jaw.B. Its earsC. Its nose.D. Its eyes.14. By telling the story of Jack the writer wanted to show that _____.A. people are cruel to animalsB. Jack is different from oth er dolphinsC. dolphins are friendly and cleverD. dolphins should be prot ected by law15.Why did the sailors off the coast of New Zealand look for J ack?A. They wanted his help.B. They enjoyed playing with him.C. He was lonely and liked to be with peopleD. He was seriously wounded.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。

Going for a run seems like such a bad idea. But before you hide your running shoes,it might be worth giving that crazy idea a go.According to The Huffington Post,an outdoor run in winter, as opposed to one on a treadmill(跑步机),bums more calories because the body is working hard to regulate(调节)its core temperature. Furthermore, research shows that race times are faster in cold weather than in warmer temperatures-and quicker runs burn more calories. Similarly,cold weather also makes the heart work harder to distribute blood through the body,making that vital muscle even stronger.Outdoor exercise also turns up your energy and rids you of the stress and depression that build up every day. The heat and humidity in the summer can drag you down and tire you faster, but cold weather is refreshing. Itadjusts you to your surroundings,making you feel alive.Of course,the threat of smog in some built-up areas is a further hurdle to winter exercise. Heart attacks stroke, lung cancer and asthma are all dangers of running in smog. The combination of air pollution and exercise increases the potential problems. If you do choose to run outside on smoggy days, take a path in a park or residential area to avoid car exhaust(尾气) and go early in the morning,before rush hour. But staying inside on smoggy days and waiting for the next clear day to run is best.4. How does cold weather benefit runners compared with warm weather?A. They can run more slowly.B. They can take in more calories.C. Their hearts can function harder.D. Their body temperature can get lower.5. How does summer affect runners?A. It builds up their energy quickly.B. It makes runners tired easily.C. It lessens runners' stress.D. It causes heart attack.6. What are the runners supposed to do on smoggy days?A. Stop driving cars.B. Do more exercise.C. Avoid outdoor exercise.D. Run late in the morning.7. What can be the best title of the text?A. Refresh with a Winter RunB. Take Outdoor Exercise in SummerC. Go to Run in a ParkD. Follow the Tips to Reduce StressCOnce you find water, a major issue remains: Is it pure? Is it drinkable? And if not, how to make it drinkable?You can make a water filter(过滤器) from a cone of birch bark(桦树皮).This cone is then filled with layers of sand, charcoal(木炭), grasses, and other materials. Grasses and sand help to trap suspended particles(悬浮颗粒). Charcoal helps to remove chemical impurities, but not bacteria.You may have to pass the water through the filter more than once, depending on the size of the filter and what it’s made of. Generally speaking, the bigger the filter, and the more layers you have in it, the better.The birch bark cone will need to have a fairly small hole in the bottom. The cone will have to be tied with cordage to keep it from opening up. Put a few stones in the very bottom, to help hold your filtering materials in place. Then pour in layers of charcoal, grasses, sand, and possibly other materials that you feel will help to filter out suspended particles and perhaps even bacteria.Once you have constructed the filter, simply pour impure water through the filer, catching it in another container at the bottom.This is basically the “well”method of obtaining water. Dig a hole about 2-4 feet from a water source, such as a river. Allow the hole to fill with water. The water in the hole will likely be reasonably pure.8. How do we get purer water?A. Bigger filter and less layers.B. Larger filter and more layers.C. Smaller filter and more layers.D. Smaller filter and less layers.9. Why should we put some stones in the very bottom?A. Killing bacteria.B. Removing chemicals.C. Keeping the materials balanced.D. Blocking water.10. What does a water filter look like?A. B. C. D.11. The text is mainly intended to present a method of _________.A. cleaning waterB. absorbing waterC. finding waterD. boiling waterDOur words carry huge weight.
