One reason for this is a (n ) 2 in the cost of living. On the average, children attend schools for more years than they used to, making them financially (经济上) 3 their families longer. Moreover,children nowadays are better dressed and have more money to spend on 4 like having parties and touring around. The parents usually take the 5 for all the cost.Meanwhile, families are less 6 than they used to be. More and more American mothers work away from home. The break-up of the family happens when the parents divorce.A lot of children in the U. S. Live part of their young lives with only one parent. Broken families usually lead to problems for both children and parents. Children blame themselves when their parents separate. They grow up feeling 7 about their future as they moved back and forth between parents. Usually one parent is responsible for raising the children. These single parents must 8 the children's emotional needs while also supporting them financially. This require much attention and 9 very little time for the parent's own interests.The situations of many American families today are not good, 10 recent signs show that things are getting better. The divorce rate is going down. The rate of child birth is rising.Perhaps Americans have learned how important families are.2二、完形填空10.

" Donna was a shy girl and I wanted her to make some friends to bring her out of her shell."Sure, honey, that sounds great, " I said, thinking back to my own best friend, Lillian. We lived across the street from each other in Washington Heights, New York. We met at the age of 10, too. Like my daughter, I was shy, but Lillian drew me out. She was once of the friendliest people in school, with shiny black hair and a mile-wide smile.In senior high school, Lillian went on a trip to Florida. This was the first time we had to be away from each other for a few days. "I'll be back soon." She told me. But three days later,Lillian's sister told me that she had fallen into a river and hadn't come out any more. Soon, my family moved to New Jersey. Whenever I thought of her, tears came into my eyes.The next day Donna brought her new friend home. "Hi, Mrs. Loggia." the little girl said. Her hair was so shiny and black and she gave me a big smile. "My name is Laura."My daughter's new friend was so much like Lillian. I was still puzzled when Laura's mom came to pick her up later that afternoon. I opened the door to let her in. "Judy!" she cried. "It's me, Lillian's sister, from Washington Heights."

Émilie would be one of the exceptions to that reality as she was a physicist, natural philosopher, and mathematician whose work is still celebrated today.Although we know little about her education, it's clear that she was intelligent in language and science. By the age of twelve she was excellent in Latin, Italian, French, Greek, and German. But her focus was in maths which she studied with a great love.As a girl who favored taking part in the social activities, she married at the age of 18. After giving birth to three children, two of which survived, she returned to her studies of maths at the age of 26, paying no attention to most of social activities of her earlier days.With the help of her family teachers in maths, she also joined in many discussions with the best scientists at that time. This gave her a lot of inspiration in her maths research. In fact, her translation of Newton's Principia Mathematica 《数学原理》is still the most acceptable translation of the work into French. It also played a great role in introducing Newtonian science to Europe. Unfortunately, this was her final work as she passed away from giving her fourth child shortly after finishing the text in 1749.Émilie du Châtelet was a prolific author at that time. Her works covered many fields including philosophy, maths and the natural science. She managed to maintain her confidence and position in Paris society while pursuing her love for maths. Émilie du Châtelet was one of many women whose contributions have helped shape the course of maths.4 A.Maths tin C.Philosophy D.PhysicsÉmilie du Châtelet liked best in her life.(1)A.a-e-c-b-d B.c-e-a-b-d C.c-a-e-d-b D.a-c-e-d-bIn what order did the following events take place in Émilie's life?a.

If you watch closely, you will see that as your cat falls asleep, her breathing becomes slow and her body still. She has entered the first stage of sleep, called slow-wave sleep. After about 15 minutes, you will notice a change in her breathing. Her paws and whiskers twitch (抽动)and her ear suddenly moves a bit. Her eyes move under her closed lids. Your cat has entered the REM (rapid eye movement sleep ). Although she twitches and makes little noises, messages from her brain to the large muscles in her legs are stopped, so she can't run about. She is in a state of "sleep paralysis (麻痹)".Back in 1963, Michel Jouvet, a French scientist who was studying sleep in cats explained their sleep paralysis. Even though they were completely asleep, the dreaming cats began to go after balls that Jouvet couldn't see and was ready to fight back at invisible enemies. He thought he was watching them act out their dreams.What were they dreaming about? Mostly, the dreaming cats seemed to act out important cat skills.In another study, neuroscientist Matt Wilson recorded rats' brain wave while they leaned makes (迷宫). One day, he left the brain-wave-recording machine on while the rats fall asleep. The shape of brain waves in the sleeping rats matched the shape of the maze so closely that Wilson could exactly point out which part of the maze each rat was dreaming about!Many researchers now think that in both people and animals, one purpose of dreams is to repeat important skills and review recent learning. This may explain why so many people dream about fighting and escaping, skills that were probably very important to people a long time ago,and why dreaming affects our ability to learn.Do all animals dream? From looking at the brain waves of sleeping animals, scientists think that all mammals like cats, dogs and even tigers dream, but fish don't.(They're not sure about birds ) Also, how often animals dream seems to be related to body size. Cats dream about every 15 minutes, rats every 9 minutes, and elephants every 2 hours. And though cows and horses usually sleep standing up, they only dream when lying down.5 A.B.C.D.The cat enters the REM .before her slow-wave sleepwhen her breathing becomes slow15 minutes after she closes her eyeswhen her eyes move under her closed lids(1)A.Cats.

Ability is easily improved. 1 So today I want to give you some wisdom about how to make the most of the time you spend in the kitchen. Here are three tips for great cooking on a tight schedule:1. Think ahead. The moments when I think cooking is a pain are when I'm already hungry and there is nothing ready to eat. So think ahead of the coming week. When will you have time to cook? Do you have the right materials ready? 22. Make your time worth it. When you do find time to cook a meal, make the most of it and save yourself time later on. Are you making one loaf of bread? Make three or four instead. 3 So save yourself the effort for a future meal.3. 4 This may surprise you, but one of the best tools for making cooking worth your time is experimentation (实验). It gives you the chance to hit upon new ideas that cans work7四、语篇补全A.B.C.D.E. 5 Let cooking and living simply be a joy rather than a burden. And don't let a busy schedule discourage you from making some great changes in the way you eat and live!It takes around the same amount of time to make more of something.A little time planning ahead can save a lot of work later on.Hopefully that gives you a good start.Money is a topic I'll save for another day.Try new things.(共6小题,每小题1分,共6分)Emily's family don't often spend time doing activities together.

She was born on February 22, 1975, in California. Being from a family that produced great actors, she quickly found her way into the spotlight (聚光灯).When she was 11 months old, she made her first advertisement on TV. She made her first movie at the age of 2. Five years later, she acted Gertie in Steven Spielberg’s famous film E.T. (1982).However, it wasn’t all roses and sunshine when Barrymore was growing up. She once went to the dark side and became a big problem. Most kid stars in Hollywood fail to become stars as adults. And most of the time, once they’re out of the spotlight, they stay out. But Drew Barrymore doesn’t. As she was growingolder, Barrymore started to realize that life is more meaningful than dangerous actions in the films. She started to build a career in 1997. She has made a series of successful films since then, including Charlie’s Angels (2000) and 50 First Dates (2004).“In my life, there is darkness and drama, and I have yet to explore some of that in my work life. I just want to challenge myself and prove that I can do more.”Actually, anyone who’s not familiar with her disordered childhood might find it hard to believe she’s such a sweet person now. Like many of the characters she plays in her comedy, Drew is easy-going and laughs a lot. In 2007, she was on the cover of People magazine’s 100 Most Beautifu l People issue.“Life is very interesting... in the end, some of your greatest pains, become your greatest strengths,” Drew said.26.Drew Barrymore made her first movie in ___________.A.1975B. 1977C. 1979D. 198227.Drew Barrymore can be a Hollywood legend mainly because ___________.A.she always has roses and sunshine in her lifeB.she used to be a famous kid star in HollywoodC.she didn’t give up even when she met difficultiesD.she was born from a family that produced great actors28.Which is the correct order of Drew Barrymore’s life?①She made the film Charlie’s Angels.②She went to the dark side and became a big problem.③She acted Gertie in Steven Spielberg’s famous film E.T..④She is on the cover of People magazine’s 100 Most Beautiful People issue.A. ③②①④B. ④②①③C. ②③④①D. ①③②④29. Which of the following chart (图表) can best describe Drew Barrymore’s career (till 2007)?30. Which of the following words can be used to describe Drew Barrymore according to the passage?A. Interesting.B. Strong-minded.C. Beautiful.D. Clever.BBig data (数据) is a lot of sets of information that are put together so they can be used by a computer program. The computer program looks for different kinds of answers or patterns in the data. Big data can have different kinds of information from many sources, such as information that comes from schools, social media sites, companies and governments. One set of data can have people’s names and addresses. Another set can have what they like, where they go to school, and how much time they spend on the computer.Big data can be used in many ways. The government uses it to understand how many people travel on buses or trains. This information is then used to make bus or train systems better. Some schools use big data to understand which children may need extra help in class. The teacher can then give certain students more help or support so those students can succeed in school. Companies use big data, too. It helps them understand who buys their products. For example, one company uses weather data to see when people eat the most ice cream.Big data can be used for good reasons. Some hospitals use big data to predict if a baby who is born too early will get sick. The hospital can then take extra steps to take care of that baby so he or she does not get sick. Big data can also be used for bad reasons. It can be used to predict which kinds of people are likely to break the law or hurt others, even if they have not done anything wrong.How can big data be used for good and bad thing? It is because the computer programs are written by people. People think in a certain way, and they build a model of those ideas. These ideas are then used to look at the data. Sometimes, these ideas are helpful for people or businesses. Other times, bad ideas can cause problems for certain groups of people.31.Big data can have different kinds of information from many sources. Information that comes from ____________ is not mentioned (提及) in this passage.A. schoolsB. governmentsC. police stationsD. hospitals32. One company uses weather information to ___________.A. help children in needB. find out who take the bus or trainC. know when people will visit the hospitalD. understand when people will need ice cream33. The main idea of Paragraph 3 is that ____________.A. we can use big data in a number of waysB. big data can be only used for good reasonsC. big data can be used for both good and bad reasonsD. we can use big data to stop babies from getting sick34. The passage is mainly about ____________.A. what big data is and how it is usedB. what schools and hospitals people likeC. where important data is collected and storedD. how big data is controlled by governments and companies35. This passage is _____________.A. sad and personalB. personal and scientificC. informative but sillyD. scientific and informative (提供有益信息的)CXinhua English BEIJING, Oct. 16 (Xinhua) --- “Weathering with You”, a Japanese animated (动画) romantic fantasy film is set to hit Chinese theaters on Nov. 1, 2019.Set in Japan, the film talks about a high school teenager Hodaka Morishima who makes a living on his own in Tokyo for the first time.

One reason for this is a (n ) 2 in the cost of living. On the average, children attend schools for more years than they used to, making them financially (经济上) 3 their families longer. Moreover,children nowadays are better dressed and have more money to spend on 4 like having parties and touring around. The parents usually take the 5 for all the cost.Meanwhile, families are less 6 than they used to be. More and more American mothers work away from home. The break-up of the family happens when the parents divorce.A lot of children in the U. S. Live part of their young lives with only one parent. Broken families usually lead to problems for both children and parents. Children blame themselves when their parents separate. They grow up feeling 7 about their future as they moved back and forth between parents. Usually one parent is responsible for raising the children. These single parents must 8 the children's emotional needs while also supporting them financially. This require much attention and 9 very little time for the parent's own interests.The situations of many American families today are not good, 10 recent signs show that things are getting better. The divorce rate is going down. The rate of child birth is rising.Perhaps Americans have learned how important families are.2二、完形填空(共10小题,每小题1.5分,共15分)My daughter Donna is 10 years old. One day she said, "Mom, I made a new friend at school today. Can she come over tomorrow? " Donna was a shy girl and I wanted her to make some friends to bring her out of her shell."Sure, honey, that sounds great, " I said, thinking back to my own best friend, Lillian. We lived across the street from each other in Washington Heights, New York. We met at the age of 10, too. Like my daughter, I was shy, but Lillian drew me out. She was once of the friendliest people in school, with shiny black hair and a mile-wide smile.In senior high school, Lillian went on a trip to Florida. This was the first time we had to be away from each other for a few days. "I'll be back soon." She told me. But three days later,Lillian's sister told me that she had fallen into a river and hadn't come out any more. Soon, my family moved to New Jersey. Whenever I thought of her, tears came into my eyes.The next day Donna brought her new friend home. "Hi, Mrs. Loggia." the little girl said. Her hair was so shiny and black and she gave me a big smile. "My name is Laura."My daughter's new friend was so much like Lillian. I was still puzzled when Laura's mom came to pick her up later that afternoon. I opened the door to let her in. "Judy!" she cried. "It's me, Lillian's sister, from Washington Heights."

Émilie would be one of the exceptions to that reality as she was a physicist, natural philosopher, and mathematician whose work is still celebrated today.Although we know little about her education, it's clear that she was intelligent in language and science. By the age of twelve she was excellent in Latin, Italian, French, Greek, and German. But her focus was in maths which she studied with a great love.As a girl who favored taking part in the social activities, she married at the age of 18. After giving birth to three children, two of which survived, she returned to her studies of maths at the age of 26, paying no attention to most of social activities of her earlier days.With the help of her family teachers in maths, she also joined in many discussions with the best scientists at that time. This gave her a lot of inspiration in her maths research. In fact, her translation of Newton's Principia Mathematica 《数学原理》is still the most acceptable translation of the work into French. It also played a great role in introducing Newtonian science to Europe. Unfortunately, this was her final work as she passed away from giving her fourth child shortly after finishing the text in 1749.Émilie du Châtelet was a prolific author at that time. Her works covered many fields including philosophy, maths and the natural science. She managed to maintain her confidence and position in Paris society while pursuing her love for maths. Émilie du Châtelet was one of many women whose contributions have helped shape the course of maths.4 A.Maths tin C.Philosophy D.PhysicsÉmilie du Châtelet liked best in her life.(1)A.a-e-c-b-d B.c-e-a-b-d C.c-a-e-d-b D.a-c-e-d-bIn what order did the following events take place in Émilie's life?a.

If you watch closely, you will see that as your cat falls asleep, her breathing becomes slow and her body still. She has entered the first stage of sleep, called slow-wave sleep. After about 15 minutes, you will notice a change in her breathing. Her paws and whiskers twitch (抽动)and her ear suddenly moves a bit. Her eyes move under her closed lids. Your cat has entered the REM (rapid eye movement sleep ). Although she twitches and makes little noises, messages from her brain to the large muscles in her legs are stopped, so she can't run about. She is in a state of "sleep paralysis (麻痹)".Back in 1963, Michel Jouvet, a French scientist who was studying sleep in cats explained their sleep paralysis. Even though they were completely asleep, the dreaming cats began to go after balls that Jouvet couldn't see and was ready to fight back at invisible enemies. He thought he was watching them act out their dreams.What were they dreaming about? Mostly, the dreaming cats seemed to act out important cat skills.In another study, neuroscientist Matt Wilson recorded rats' brain wave while they leaned makes (迷宫). One day, he left the brain-wave-recording machine on while the rats fall asleep. The shape of brain waves in the sleeping rats matched the shape of the maze so closely that Wilson could exactly point out which part of the maze each rat was dreaming about!Many researchers now think that in both people and animals, one purpose of dreams is to repeat important skills and review recent learning. This may explain why so many people dream about fighting and escaping, skills that were probably very important to people a long time ago,and why dreaming affects our ability to learn.Do all animals dream? From looking at the brain waves of sleeping animals, scientists think that all mammals like cats, dogs and even tigers dream, but fish don't.(They're not sure about birds ) Also, how often animals dream seems to be related to body size. Cats dream about every 15 minutes, rats every 9 minutes, and elephants every 2 hours. And though cows and horses usually sleep standing up, they only dream when lying down.A.B.C.D.The cat enters the REM .before her slow-wave sleepwhen her breathing becomes slow15 minutes after she closes her eyeswhen her eyes move under her closed lids(1)A.Cats.

Ability is easily improved. 1 So today I want to give you some wisdom about how to make the most of the time you spend in the kitchen. Here are three tips for great cooking on a tight schedule:1. Think ahead. The moments when I think cooking is a pain are when I'm already hungry and there is nothing ready to eat. So think ahead of the coming week. When will you have time to cook? Do you have the right materials ready? 22. Make your time worth it. When you do find time to cook a meal, make the most of it and save yourself time later on. Are you making one loaf of bread? Make three or four instead. 3 So save yourself the effort for a future meal.3. 4 This may surprise you, but one of the best tools for making cooking worth your time is experimentation (实验). It gives you the chance to hit upon new ideas that cans work well with your appetite (食欲) and schedule. The more you learn and the more you try, the more ability you have to take control of your food and your schedule.5 Let cooking and living simply be a joy rather than a burden. And don't let a busy schedule discourage you from making some great changes in the way you eat and live!7四、语篇补全(共5小题,每小题1分,共5分)D.E.Money is a topic I'll save for another day.Try new things.Emily's family don't often spend time doing activities together.

A while later, they indeed saw mice running out, one after another. Then, everyone thought that all the mice had escaped. But just as they began to clean up, they saw two mice squeezing (挤) out at the mouth of the hole. With some efforts, the mice finally got out. However, it was strange that after they came out of the hole, they did not run away at once. Instead, one chased after the other near the mouth of the hole. It seemed that one was trying to bite the tail of the other.Everyone was puzzled, so they stepped nearer to take a look. They realized that one of the mice was blind and could not see anything, and the other was trying to allow the blind mouse to bite on his tail so that he could pull the blind one with him to escape.After seeing what happened, everyone was speechless and lost in thought. During the meal time, the group of people sat down in a circle and started to chat about what happened to the two mice.One serious American official said: "I think the relationship between those two mice was that of king and guard."The others thought for a while and said:"That was why!"A smart French said: "I think the relationship between those two mice was that of husband and wife." Again the others thought for a while, and all felt it made sense.A Japanese said: "I think the relationship between those two mice was that of mother and son." Once again the others thought for a while, and felt this was more reasonable. So they expressed agreement another time.At that moment, one Chinese asked: "Why did those two mice have to have a certain relationship?"Suddenly, the group looked back at the Chinese and remained speechless. The American official, the French and the Japanese who had spoken earlier all lowered their heads, being embarrassed, and did not dare to answer.In fact, the true love is not built on friendship, loyalty or blood relationship. Instead, it is based on no relationship.A.smokeB.waterC.fireD.sandWhen some government officials found a mouse hole in a corner, they used toforce the mice inside to come out.(1)A.one was biting the otherB.the mouth of the hole was too smallC.they were not afraid of smokeD.one was trying to help the blind oneNeither of the two mice ran away immediately because .(2)A.B.C.D.Why did they lower their heads, being embarrassed, according to the passage?Because they did not dare to answer.Because they guessed the wrong relationship of the mice.Because they regretted driving a poor blind mouse away.Because they didn't express the best understanding of it.(3)A It is clear that .all the mice came out of the hole easily(4)D.the people knew one of the mice was blind at first sightA.Two Lovely MiceB.Help Produced LoveC.Friends in NeedD.Love Is AllThe best title for the passage is .(5)As one saying goes, where there are Chinese people, there are kung fu legends.Jin Yong, also known as Louis Cha Leung-yung, was regarded as one of the greatest kung fu fiction writers in China. And for many people, Cha built a magical kung fu kingdom that they could escape into every now and then. But this kingdom is falling apart now, because Cha passed away on Oct 30, 2018, at the age of 94.Cha wrote all of his 15 wuxia novels between 1955 and 1972. While the value and tastes of readers have changed greatly in recent decades, his books continue to attract people. His works have been filmed into movies and TV series so many times in Hong Kong, Taiwan and the Chinese mainland that the comparison of these versions (版本) is of great interest to his fans.There is always a knight (大侠) with a spirit that is sincere in love, friendship and patriotism (爱国精神)at the center of his stories. Such characters move both men and women. For example, in The Return of the Condor Heroes 《神雕侠侣》, the young knight Yang Guo waits for his lover Xiaolongnu faithfully for 16 years, believing that she is still alive, even if she has jumped from a mountain into a valley. And in Demi-Gods and Semi-Devils 《天龙八部》, powerful Xiao Feng treats his friends with sincere feelings, ready to die for the peace of his homeland.Cha has an excellent ability of using language. He has a theory about writing an attractive plot: "To make a lie believable, it's better to tell 10 truthful things along with it." This theory works well for Cha's writing. His stories are always full of rich history; the rules of partial arts (武术)are described in detail. As a result, he achieved a sense of realism with his partial arts heroes.Cha's books bring readers joy, and Cha himself has equal fun creating them. "Writing gives me space for imagination, just like a director, " Cha once said.However, Cha's real aim in writing novels is to show traditional Chinese valued and qualities. "Kung fu novels must describe justice and honesty. The good fight the wicked .Traditional valued are shown through the characters and their stories, not by lecturing readers, "he said.4 A.B.C.D.From the passage, we can know all of them EXCEPT .Cha spent about 17 years writing his 15 novelsCha is a famous writer as well as a famous directorpeople can get lost in the magical world when reading Cha's novelsCha always pay much attention to the Chinese traditional value in his novels(1)Why do Louis Cha's novels attract so many people?a .their characters(2)A.abcdB.abdeC.abceD.acded .Cha's deep understanding of readers' valued and tastese .the traditional valued and qualities describedA.B.C.D.Which of the following statement is TRUE?Louis Cha was considered as the greatest kung fu fiction writer in the world.Because the tastes of readers have changed, Cha's books can't attract people any more.The Return of the Condor Heroes only talked about the spirit of the sincere love.Louis Cha likes reading lots of historical books to help his writing.(3)A.B.C.D.In the last paragraph, the underlined words "the wicked " refers to .the man full of strengththe man who are dishonestthe people who are weak in kong futhe people who are morally (道德上) unacceptable(4)A.B.C.D.What is the main idea of the passage?It analyzes (分析) why the books written by Louis Cha are so popular.It analyzed what kungfu fiction is and the related traditional value.It mainly talks about the characters in Louis Cha's books.It mainly describe Louis Cha's skills in writing novels.(5)5A.RecycleB.DangerousC.WetD.DryYour mother should put her unwanted lipstick (口红) in the bin.(1)A.flowers B.toilet paper C.paint D.batteriesWhich of the following kinds of waste should go in the wet bin?(2)A.copper pipes B.plastic bags C.copy paper D.paper cupsWhich of the following can be recycled?(3)A.Food Advertisementsic magazinesC.Health ReportsD.Waste sort postersWhere can you read it?(5)Parrots have been known to minic (模仿) words, but have you ever thought how theycommunicate? The sounds they make may sound meaningless to us, but new research has found that wild parrots are actually given names by their parents.According to a study led by Karl Betg of Cornell University in the US, nestlings (雏鸟)are given a unique sound of their own, which stays with them for their entire lives. In the study,the team placed hidden cameras in the nests of 17 different wild parrots. After studying their sounds, the team discovered small differences in the calls parents used to communicate with each chick. And eyes before the nestling had beamed to communicate properly, the baby birds seemed to recognize and mimic their calls.Sounds very similar to humans, doesn't it? The study also proved that these signature calls are acquired (获得)socially not genetically (基因上地). To do this, scientists exchange the eggs in nine of the 17 nests, so that half of the parrots were raising nestling that weren't ing the recording, the scientists made a conclusion that the nestling all used names similar to those the parents (whether biological or nonbiological ) called them for the first weeks of their lives.Lucie MeNeil, from National Geographic, said, "This would be the first proven example of a non-human species teaching acoustical (声学的) communication."Lead scientist for the study, Karl beg told National Public Radio of the US, "Most people say, 'Well, all those calls are just noise, ' but I think they're having conversations.''Fox News also asked Berg what else the parrots might be saying. He replied, "The theory is that these birds are deciding where the food is, 'Do we want to go 3 km North-Northwest? '"Do we want to go to that field? ' They are kind of arguing or discussing."Natural science author, Virginia Morell, wrote: "Very gradually, scientists are learning to decode the conversations of very different animals that live lives rich with plans, quarrels, and romance."You never know, if the science of animal translation keeps developing, we might one day be watching a reality series about parrots.6 A.B.C.D.What did the new research find about wild parrots?They can talk by learning from people.The sounds they make are meaningless.They have names given by their parents.They have a unique way of making sounds.(1)A.B.What does the study suggest?Different parrots are called differently by their parents.Baby parrots can tell who their biological parents are.(2)A.B.C.D.Why did the scientists exchange the eggs in the study?To see whether the parents could recognize their own babies.To see whether the parrots made the same sounds all their lives.To see whether the signature calls were acquired socially or genetically.To see whether biological and nonbiological parents named babies differently.(3)A.mimic B.understand C.practice D.createThe underlined word "decode" in the passage is closest in meaning to " ”(4)A.④②①③⑤ B.②④①③⑤ C.④③①②⑤ D.②⑤④①⑤Which one is the correct order?①Baby parrots learned how to communicate rightly.②Scientists exchanged the eggs in the nests.③Baby parrots can recognize and mimic their calls.④Nestlings are given a sound of their own.⑤People proved the parrots can use sound to communicate with each other.(5)A.B.C.D.E.American actress Natalie Portman is a confident and successful woman. However, fewpeople realize that Portman had some very difficult moments in the past, and it happened during her time at Harvard University.Portman went to Harvard at the age of 18. 1 But on that famous campus, she lost her confidence. She thought she could never read 1, 000 pages every week or write a 50-page paper. She was shocked by her classmates. 2 "I felt like every time I opened my mouth, I would have to show that I wasn't just a dumbed (愚蠢的)actress. " In 2003, Portman graduated. She said the experience taught her that one should always be confident. 3She tried a lot of new things with A Tale of Love and Darkness 《爱与黑暗的故事》. She directed it. She wrote part of the script (剧本). 4"All of these things were challenges I should have been feared, as I was completely unprepared." said Portman. " 5 , and my belief that I could handle these things was half the battle (成功了一半)."That way, she said, you can "try things that you never would have tried"But once there, I had to work it all out.At the time, she had been acting for seven years and was already famous.They thought the quantity of work was easy compared with high school.She also shot the film entirely in Hebrew (希伯来语), the language of Israel, her birthplace.7四、语篇补全(共5小题,每小题1分,共5分)五、首字母填空(共6小题,每小题1分,共6分)—Don't be so rude.

She was born on February 22, 1975, in California. Being from a family that produced great actors, she quickly found her way into the spotlight (聚光灯).When she was 11 months old, she made her first advertisement on TV. She made her first movie at the age of 2. Five years later, she acted Gertie in Steven Spielberg’s famous film E.T. (1982).However, it wasn’t all roses and sunshine when Barrymore was growing up. She once went to the dark side and became a big problem. Most kid stars in Hollywood fail to become stars as adults. And most of the time, once they’re out of the spotlight, they stay out. But Drew Barrymore doesn’t. As she was growingolder, Barrymore started to realize that life is more meaningful than dangerous actions in the films. She started to build a career in 1997. She has made a series of successful films since then, including Charlie’s Angels (2000) and 50 First Dates (2004).“In my life, there is darkness and drama, and I have yet to explore some of that in my work life. I just want to challenge myself and prove that I can do more.”Actually, anyone who’s not familiar with her disordered childhood might find it hard to believe she’s such a sweet person now. Like many of the characters she plays in her comedy, Drew is easy-going and laughs a lot. In 2007, she was on the cover of People magazine’s 100 Most Beautifu l People issue.“Life is very interesting... in the end, some of your greatest pains, become your greatest strengths,” Drew said.26.Drew Barrymore made her first movie in ___________.A.1975B. 1977C. 1979D. 198227.Drew Barrymore can be a Hollywood legend mainly because ___________.A.she always has roses and sunshine in her lifeB.she used to be a famous kid star in HollywoodC.she didn’t give up even when she met difficultiesD.she was born from a family that produced great actors28.Which is the correct order of Drew Barrymore’s life?①She made the film Charlie’s Angels.②She went to the dark side and became a big problem.③She acted Gertie in Steven Spielberg’s famous film E.T..④She is on the cover of People magazine’s 100 Most Beautiful People issue.A. ③②①④B. ④②①③C. ②③④①D. ①③②④29. Which of the following chart (图表) can best describe Drew Barrymore’s career (till 2007)?30. Which of the following words can be used to describe Drew Barrymore according to the passage?A. Interesting.B. Strong-minded.C. Beautiful.D. Clever.BBig data (数据) is a lot of sets of information that are put together so they can be used by a computer program. The computer program looks for different kinds of answers or patterns in the data. Big data can have different kinds of information from many sources, such as information that comes from schools, social media sites, companies and governments. One set of data can have people’s names and addresses. Another set can have what they like, where they go to school, and how much time they spend on the computer.Big data can be used in many ways. The government uses it to understand how many people travel on buses or trains. This information is then used to make bus or train systems better. Some schools use big data to understand which children may need extra help in class. The teacher can then give certain students more help or support so those students can succeed in school. Companies use big data, too. It helps them understand who buys their products. For example, one company uses weather data to see when people eat the most ice cream.Big data can be used for good reasons. Some hospitals use big data to predict if a baby who is born too early will get sick. The hospital can then take extra steps to take care of that baby so he or she does not get sick. Big data can also be used for bad reasons. It can be used to predict which kinds of people are likely to break the law or hurt others, even if they have not done anything wrong.How can big data be used for good and bad thing? It is because the computer programs are written by people. People think in a certain way, and they build a model of those ideas. These ideas are then used to look at the data. Sometimes, these ideas are helpful for people or businesses. Other times, bad ideas can cause problems for certain groups of people.31.Big data can have different kinds of information from many sources. Information that comes from ____________ is not mentioned (提及) in this passage.A. schoolsB. governmentsC. police stationsD. hospitals32.
