Dear Diary
yesterday and I found it to be a Our school held the annual “Ｓ
cience & Technology Day”
hugely rewarding experience. Activities included technological knowledge quizzes, student research exhibitions and advanced technologies lectures. My classmates and I really enjoyed it all and deeply appreciated the efforts of the organizers.
I took part in the “create your own robot”
competition, which was a great learning opportunity. The hand-on experience really helped me to better understand the theory behind robotics.
Thanks to the festival, I have a much clearer understanding of technology and its applications than before. It has motivated me to focus on science as a career, and hopefully make a meaningful contribution to our society.
I can’t wait for the next festival.。
2019-2020学年广州中学高三英语第三次联考试卷及参考答案
2019-2020学年广州中学高三英语第三次联考试卷及参考答案第一部分阅读（共两节，满分40分）第一节（共15小题；每小题2分，满分30分）阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项ALocated besideLake Geneva, the Olympic Museum houses more than 10,000 artificial objects and hours of interactive contents highlighting some of the best moments during the Olympics. Here are some of the museum’s most moving moments.The Olympic ParkThe journey through the Olympic Museum begins in the Olympic Park, an 8,000-square-meter outdoor area in front of the museum overlooking Lake Geneva and theAlps. The park contains artwork and sculptures that show respect to the world of sport.The first Olympic symbolThe “Olympic Rings” flag was designed by Coubertin in 1913. The rings represent the five continents that participate in the Olympics: Africa, Asia,America,AustraliaandEurope. The six color1 s include at least one color1 that is represented on the flag of every country.The stadiumsThe stadiums that host the Olympic Games are as much of a celebration of design as the games are a celebration of sportsmanship. Guests can explore plans and models of Olympic stadiums’ past and present, including one of the games’ most attractive stadiums, the Bird’s Nest from Beijing 2008 Olympics.The Olympic medalsHave you ever wondered what an Olympic medal looks like? The Olympic Museum has a room that houses every bronze, silver, and gold medal from every Olympic Games dating back to the first modern Olympics of 1896. Each medal design is a unique representation of the year and location in which the games were held.1.Which moment do you see first when exploring the Olympic Museum?A.The Olympic Park.B.The first Olympic symbol.C.The stadiums.D.The Olympic medals.2.What do you know from The first Olympic symbol?A.The first modern Olympics took place inGreece.B.There are six color1 s on the flag of every country.C.Australia used to be the largest continent on earth.D.The “Olympic Rings” flag was created in 1913.3.What can you do in the section of The stadiums?A.Admire the view ofLake Geneva.B.Meet some famous designers.C.Enjoy the model of the Bird’s Nest.D.Talk with guests of honour.BMy first week working in a restaurant, one of the servers said something that stuck with me: Everyone should work in a restaurant for at least a year. At the time, I didn't get it, but I took the advice to heart and worked in restaurants on and off for the next eight years. Before realizing it, I mastered many important skills, one of which is communication skill.When I was little, I was so shy that I used to hide behind my mom whenever someone spoke to me. And when I first started in restaurants, I had two personalities: Restaurant Lizzy and Home Lizzy. It was easier to pretend to be a different person while at work, since it was so different from who I actually was. But gradually, the skills I learned working in restaurants helped Home Lizzy come out of her shell in the real world.When you work in a restaurant, you don't have the luxury of hiding behind your parents to avoid talking to people. I'm still 110% an introvert, but restaurant work helped me communicate. Working in a restaurant not only helped me speak clearly, deliberately and directly but also taught me how to talk about almost everything. Some guests don't want their servers to interact too much with them, and that's fine. But some sit at the bar simply to chat with you. You learn how to judge your guests' level of interest in communicating with you, and how to exit a conversation at the appropriate time.My restaurant work is something that I'm most proud of and I know I wouldn't be the person I am today without those eight years of experience. If you're still on the fence about working in a restaurant for that long, start with one year. I doubt that you'll look back.4. What did the writer think of the server's words?A. Impressive.B. Ridiculous.C. Amusing.D. Logical.5. What do we infer from Paragraph 2?A. The writer tried different jobs.B. The writer became more sociable.C. The writer used an invented name.D. The writer had a hard time at work.6. Which of the following best describes the writer's restaurant work?A. Boring.B. Relaxing.C. Worthwhile.D. Unchallenging.7. What message does the writer try to convey in this passage?A. A strong-willed soul can reach his goal.B. Things are difficult before they are easy.C. Communication skills advance your career.D. Restaurantwork helps to achieve a better self.CIn sportthe sexes are separate. Women and men do not run or swim in the same races. Women are less strong than men.That at least is what people say.Women are called the weaker sex, or, if men want to please them, the fair sex. But boys and girls are taught together at schools and universities. There are women who are famous Prime Ministers, scientists and writers. And women live longer than men. A European woman can expect to live until the age of 74, a man only until he is 68. Are women’s bodies really weaker?The fastest men can run a mile in under 4 minutes. The best women need 4.5 minutes. Women’s time is always slower than men’s, but some facts are a surprise. Some of the fastest women swimmers today are teenage girls. One of them swam 400 meters in 4 minutes 21.2 seconds when she was only 16. The first ‘Tartan’ in film was an Olympic swimmer, Johnny Weissmuller. His fastest 400 meters was 4 minutes 49.1 seconds, which is 37.9 seconds slower than a girl 50 years later! This does not mean that women are catching men up. Conditions are very different now and sport is much more serious. It is so serious that some women athletes are given hormone injections. At the Olympics a doctor has to check whether the women athletes are really women or not. It seems sad that sport has such problems. Life can be very complicated when there are two separate sexes!8. Women are called the weaker sex because _________.A. women do as much as menB. people think women are weaker than menC. sport is easier for men than for womenD. in sport the two sexes are always together9. Which of the following is true?A. Boys and girls study separately everywhere.B Women do not run or swim in races with men.C. Famous Prime Ministers are women.D. Men can expect to live longer than women in Europe.10. The underlined part “That at least is what people say” means people _________.A. say other things, tooB. don’t say this muchC. say this but may not think soD. only think this11. In this passage the author implies that _________.A. womenare weaker than men, but fasterB. women are slower than men, but strongerC. men are not always stronger and faster than womenD. men are faster and stronger than womenDJIANLI, Hubei Province, June 2 (Xinhua) — A cruise ship carrying more than 450 people sank in the Yangtze River overnight, which could be China’s worst sinking disaster in decades. As of 6 p.m. Tuesday, 14 peoplehad been rescued from the capsized vessel, with five others confirmed dead. The rest are still missing, although rescuers said there could be more survivors. Strong winds and heavy rain are hampering rescue efforts.The Eastern Star sank in only 15 meters of water “within one or two minutes” of being caught in freak weather in Jianli, according to the ship’s captain and chief engineer who survived the incident. The ship left the eastern Chinese city ofNanjingon May 28 bound forChongqingMunicipality.The ship was carrying 403 passengers, five tour guides, and 46 crew, rather than the previously reported 47.

It is owned by Chongqing Dongfang Shipping. Waterway officials said they have no record of the company being involved in any previous sinking incidents.According to weather forecast, most of the Yangtze basin will be subject to downpours over the next 10 days, with heavy rain expected in the area where the search is underway.Police, waterway authorities and fire departments have sent more than 150 boats and over 4,000 personnel to the scene. The Chinese Navy has sent diving forces to search for the missing. The team is composed of soldiers from the navy’s fleets in the North Sea, East China Sea, andSouth China Sea, as well as students of the Naval University of Engineering. In addition, five helicopters were dispatched fromBeijingandHubei’s provincial capital ofWuhanon Tuesday morning, along with an IL-76 transport plane.12.

Rules—Any media (paints, crayon, pencil etc) may be used but no computer generated posters are allowed.—Poster size must be between 18 cm × 25 cm and 50 cm × 65 cm.Remember, larger posters have more impact!—A completed entry form must be attached to the back of the poster(Download from /comp/forms).—All posters must be created by an individual student rather than a team of students. —The 2019 competition title “Watersheds-Our Water, Our Home” must appear on the poster.—No adult help permitted.POSTER EVALUATION:—Conservation messages (50%)—Visual effectiveness (30%)—Originality (10%)—Universal/Popular appeal (10%)PRIZES:Cash prizes will be awarded for first, second and third place winners in each of the five categories. Each first place poster goes to the national poster competition.WHO CAN PARTICIPATE?The poster contest is open to all students in grades 1 to 12. Students in public or private schools can take part.Categories: Grades 1-2, 3-4, 5-6, 7-9, 10-12.RESEARCH THE TOPIC:The Internet and library are great places to visit to come up with an idea for your poster. You can also visit to get ideas on what makes a great poster and view posters that have previously won.——If your poster is in the top 3 in its category and you would like to receive it back, please call 130-767-3070.（1）What is t he main function of the paragraph under the “POSTER CONTEST” heading?A To announce the start of a new competition.B To describe the competition’s terms and prizes.C To state who is entitled to take part in the competition.D To explain why the competition’s theme is important.（2）What is the most important criterion for judging the posters?A The audience response to the poster.B The effectiveness of the message.C The graphics and colours used.D The originality of the design.（3）How many prizes will be awarded in total?A 3.B 5.C 15.D 20.2. — When I met a friend recently, I asked him how work was． "Oh, not that busy, I'm just coasting, " he said． He's not alone． According to a recent poll, one third of the 3, 000 people surveyed said they were "coasting" at work． This may come as a surprise in an age when so many people spend so much time complaining about how busy they are． But most of this talk about busyness is nonsense． According to a study by researchers at Oxford University, we do not, in fact, spend more time working than we have in the past． On some measures, the amount we work has gone down． Instead, many people just have jobs filled with tasks that don't really need to be done．— The way we look at coasting has radically changed． In the past, being relaxed and not burdened with too much work within your organisation was a sign of status． Now, being extremely busy shows you are important． If you are not extremely overburdened, then you are seen as a slacker, a lazy person．— This does not make sense． Most people are not as busy as they say they are． In fact, most pressing tasks at work are often unrelated to productivity． Many busy people are actually overburdened with telling others how busy they are． Being overly﹣focused on your job may make you feel important, but it's likely to annoy friends, co﹣workers and your family． What's more, being super﹣busy all the time is not good for you． A Cornell University study found that people who are overburdened with work tend to have a worse sense of wellbeing than those who are more relaxed． The researchers also found that being super﹣busy is bad for your career． Those who reported working very intensely were associated with poorer career outcomes．So, perhaps coasters are not a drag on productivity． Maybe they have worked out that the secret to a productive and healthy life is not being too busy, and certainly not talking continuously about how busy you are． We should remember Bertrand Russell'sadage: "One of the symptoms of an approaching nervous breakdown is the belief that one's work is terribly important．"（1）What can we infer from the findings of the Oxford University study？________A People have a false impression about how busy they are at work．B Less busy employees have a greater likelihood of promotion．C One third of employees don't consider themselves to be busy．D People overburdened at work are likely to feel moreenergised．．（2）In the 19tℎ century which of these people would probably have been the LEAST busy in their job？________A A bank clerk．B A bank owner．C An office cleaner．D An office secretary．．（3）Why might "coasters" actually be successful in their work？________A They do not feel threatened by a challenging task．B They work more co﹣operatively with their colleagues．C They are able to focus on the most important and necessary tasks．D They are often more intelligent and able to complete their work faster．．（4）Which of the following best summarizes the author's attitude？________A He expresses no personal opinion about the topic．B He thinks that lazy people are in fact the best workersC He is sympathetic towards difficulties of super﹣busy workers．D He believes that busyness at work does not equal effectiveness．3. "I believe in holding onto traditions because they helped our family flourish（兴旺）in a new country． But this concept is more concretely expressed this way: I believe in feeding monkeys on my birthday ﹣ something I've done without fail for 35 years．In the Burmese jungle, monkeys are as common as pigeons． But in America, feeding monkeys means violating the rules．As a kid, I thought that was cool． I learned English through watching bad television shows and expected that I was the chosen warrior（勇士）sent to defend my family． Dad and I would go to the zoo early in the morning, just the two of us． When the Coast was clear, I would throw my peanuts to the monkeys．I never had to explain myself until my 18th birthday． It was the first year I didn't go with my father． I went with my friends and arrived 10 minutes after the zoo gates closed． "Please, " I begged the zookeeper, "I feed monkeys for my family, not forme． Can't you make an exception? " "Go find a pet store, " she said．If only it were so easy． That time, I got lucky． I found out that a high school classmate trained the monkeys for the movie Out of Africa, so he allowed me to feed his monkeys． Once a man with a pet monkey suspected that my story was a ________ ﹣ that I was an animal rights activist out to liberate his monkey． Another time, a zoo told me that outsiders could not feed the monkeys without violating the zookeepers' collective bargaining agreement． Once in a pet store, I managed to feed a marmoset（狨）being kept in a birdcage． Another time, I was asked to wear a special suit to feed a laboratory monkey． It's rarely easy and, yet, somehow I've found a way to feed a monkey every year since I was born．（1）Why has the author fed monkeys all these years？________A To please his father．B To develop a new hobby．C To celebrate his birthday．D To keep up his family tradition．．（2）How did the author and his father feed the zoo monkeys？________A They did it in a secret way．B They pretended to be warriors．C They did it with the help of friends．D They got the zookeeper's permission．．（3）What does the underlined word "ploy" in Paragraph 5 mean？________A Joke．B Trick．C Excuse．D Adventure．．（4）How is the fifth paragraph mainly developed？________A By providing examples．B By giving explanations．C By following time order．D By making comparisons．4. Amid growing global condemnation of elephant riding as a tourist activity, Yok Don National Park in southern Vietnam has ended the practice and replaced it with the first ethical （伦理的） elephant experience of its kind in the country．The formally captive group of four elephants were released from their chains earlier this month and no longer carry tourists on rides through the park． Visitors can instead observe the animals roaming freely in their natural habitat．The park worked on the initiative with Animal Protection Asia, which campaigns for long ﹣term changes in animal welfare and tourism in Vietnam． The official agreement between the charity and the state﹣run park was signed on 13 July, and runs until April 2023, with the first tours taking place earlier this month． Over the next five years, it is hoped that the new model will provide as much or even more revenue for owners as riding, and encourage mahouts （管象人） and elephant tourism companies to follow．This project has entirely changed the lives of the elephants at the park and it also provides a much better experience for the tourists． Misuse has been replaced with respect, and the animals look much healthier and happier than before．Awareness of the ________ effects of elephant riding has increased in recent years, with a growing number of tourists avoiding cruel attractions and supporting welfare centres and animal protection instead, alongside an increasing number of tour operators refusing to sell elephant treks that include riding．Many of the elephants used in riding and other activities, such as painting or performing tricks, are caught as babies from the wild, their mothers often killed． Once captured, they typically undergo intensive conditioning known as "crushing the spirit", where they are kept in tiny pens and beaten and starved, sometimes for weeks． Once trained, many of the animals eventually die from exhaustion． Campaigners and charities hope to continue to educate the industry in Vietnam and around the world, and show how profitable ethical elephant experiences, with retired and rescued animals, can be, instead．（1）What is true for most working elephants in Vietnam？________A They are allowed to roam freely．B They are chained up and cruellytreated． C They outnumber those found in the wild． D They are kept with their mothers during training．．（2）What is the goal of Animal Protection Asia？________A It seeks to raise money for national parks' operation．B It wants to organize moresightseeing tours in Vietnam． C It hopes to set a new model for elephant tourism companies． D It expects to eventually free all the working elephants in Asia．．（3）Which of the following best explains "adverse" underlined in paragraph 5？________A Practical．B Unexpected．C Financial．D Negative．．（4）What can be a suitable title for the text？________A Say no to elephant ridingB A new profitable modelC Vietnam takes thelead D Negative effects of elephant tourism．二、七选五5.EarwormMost people have had songs stuck in their heads at some point． The scientific name for this is involuntary musical imagery （INMI）， which simply means that people do not choose to keep the songs in their heads， but that it happens unconsciously． Experts have nicknamed this condition "earworm，" even though it is not an actual worm， and it does not take place in the ear．（1）_______It occurs when a catchy tune "sticks" in a person's mind． What makes a song stick depends on the individual． Some people get stuck on their favorite songs， while others end up fixated on songs they find annoying．（2）_______ It can be brought on after recently hearing a song， or it can be triggered by a memory． Although earworm can happen to anyone at any time， certain people are more likely than others to suffer from it． Most commonly， musicians experience it， but people who simply listen to music more frequently than others are also more prone to earworm．No evidence has proven one effective cure， but anything that disturbs the brain can help．（3）_______For example， actively chewing gum might switch the brain's focus from the repeating song to the moving jaw． Engaging in a task that requires concentration can remove the pesky earworm as well． However， if the task requires too much effort， it can actually prolong the earworm．（4）_______While earworm can be very annoying， there is no evidence that suggests it is actually harmful．（5）_______After all， these songs repeat automatically with no effort． What if science could apply this information to learning？ What if everyone could learn new things without having to try so hard？ If scientists can figure out how to tap into this type of memory， learning might look different in the future．A． We have a tendency to move to earworms．B． Rather， it takes place in the memory centers of the brain．C． One possibility to help shift the brain is to occupy it with a new activity．D． Nobody knows exactly why a particular song gets caught in a person's brain．E． This is because the mind tends to wander to escape the difficulty of the job at hand．F． Psychologists have long been looking for ways to turn off those unwelcome thoughts．G． In fact， some experts are studying earworm to see what they can learn about memory centers．三、完形填空6.

2019-2020学年广州市第三中学高三英语三模试题及答案
2019-2020学年广州市第三中学高三英语三模试题及答案第一部分阅读（共两节，满分40分）第一节（共15小题；每小题2分，满分30分）阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项AA medical capsule robot is a small,often pill-sized device that can do planned movement inside the body after being swallowed or surgically inserted. Most models use wireless electronics or magnets or a combination of the two to control the movement of the capsule. Such devices have been equipped with cameras to allow observation and diagnosis, with sensors that “feel,” and even with mechanical needles that administer drugs.But in practice, Biomechatronics engineer Pietro Valdastri has found that developing capsule models from scratch (从头开始) is costly, time-consuming and requires advanced skills. “The problem was we had to do them from scratch every time,” said Valdastri in an interview. “And other research groups were redeveloping those same modules from scratch, which didn’t make sense.”Since most of the capsules have the same parts of components: a microprocessor, communication submodules, an energy source, sensors, and actuators (致动器), Valdastri and his team made the modular platform in which the pieceswork in concertand can be interchanged with ease. They also developed a flexible board on which the component parts are snapped in like Legos. The board can be folded to fit the body of the capsule, down to about 14 mm. Additionally, they compiled (编译) a library of components that designers could choose from, enabling hundreds of different combinations. They arranged it all in a free online system. Designers can take the available designs or adapt them to their specific needs.“Instead of redeveloping all the modules from scratch, people with limited technological experience can use our modules to build their own capsule robots in clinical use and focus on their innovation,” Valdastri said.Now, the team has designed a capsule equipped with a surgical clip to stop internal bleeding. Researchers at Scotland’s Royal Infirmary of Edinburg have also expressed interest in using the system to make a crawling capsule that takes images of the colon(结肠). One research group, led by professors at the Institute of Digestive Disease of the Chinese University of HongKong, is making a swimming capsule equipped with a camera that pushes itself through the stomach.One limitation of Valdastri’s system is that it’s only for designing models. Researchers can confirm their hypotheses (假设) and do first design using the platform, but will need to move to a custom approach to develop their capsules further and make them practical for clinical use.1. According to the passage, Valdastri and his team created the platform to ________.A. adopt the latest technologiesB. make their robots dream come trueC. help build specialized capsule robotsD. do preciser observation and diagnosis2. What does the underlined phrase “work in concert” mean in Para.3?A. Perform live.B. Run independently.C. Act in a cooperative way.D. Carry on step by step.3. What can be learnt from the passage?A. Valdastri’s system can’t provide a complete capsule creation.B. The modular platform is more useful than a custom approach.C. The capsules can move in human’s body automatically.D. It costs more to module the capsules on the board.BYou’re in a crowd of people who are all asking for the same thing. How do you make your voice heard above the rest? Be different. Don’t shout. Lisa, 25, was waiting to board a plane flying fromLondontoAustriafor Christmaswhen the flight was cancelled.“There were about a hundred of us unable to leave,” she says. “Everyone else was shouting at the airport staff. Instead of joining in, I walked up to the man behind the ticket desk very quietly and said, ‘This must be so awful for you! I don’t know how you deal with these situations—it’s not even your fault. I could never handle it as well as you are.’ Without my even asking, he found me a seat on another airline with an upgrade to first class. He was happy to do a favor forsomeone who was appreciative instead of unfriendliness.”Flattery (恭维) is an essential element of the sweet-talk strategy. “It’s human psychology that stroking a person’s ego (自我) with a few well-directed praises makes them want to prove you right,” says apsychologist. “Tell someone they’re pretty and they’ll instantly fix their hair; praise their sense of humor and they’ll tell a joke.”You need help and there’s ly no reason that the person will want to lend a hand. Allison, 26. a lawyer, realized she’d made a huge mistake on a batch of documents. “The only way I could fix the problem was to get the help of a colleague who I knew didn’t like me,” she said.Allison then went to the woman’s office and explained her problem. “As I was saying to the boss the other day you’re the only person who would know how to handle a situation like this, what would you suggest I do?”“Feeling pumped up (鼓励), she set about helping me and we finished the job on time, and she was happy to help.” Allison said.4. Whatwould have happened at the airport according to paragraph 1?A. The departure hall was filled with noise.B. Someone screamed just lo be different.C. The passengers waited on board patiently.D. The airport stuff were rude to the passengers.5. Why did the man put Lisa on another airline?A. He admired Lisa’s beauty.B. He appreciated her attitude.C. He was ready to help others.D. He was blamed for the cancellation.6. What is the third paragraph mainly about?A. The potential benefits of ego.B. The strategy to start small talk.C. The great importance of flattery.D. The value of humor in daily life.7. What can we learn about Allison’s colleague?A. She was a popular lawyer.B. She was always ready to help others.C. She always got praise from Allison.D. She did a great favor for Allison eventually.CIdentifying the chemical makeup of pigment (色素) used in ancient documents, paintings, and watercolor1 s is criticalto restoring and conserving the precious artworks. However, despite numerous efforts, scientists had been unable to determine the source of folium, a popular blue dye used to color1 manuscripts (手稿) in Europe during the middle ages — from the 5th to the 15th century. Now, a team of researchers fromPortugalhas finally uncovered the mysterious ingredient responsible for the gorgeous blueish-purple color1 that helped bring ancient illustrations and texts to life.The research team began byporing overinstructions penned by European dye makers from the 12th, 14th, and 15th centuries. They found what they were seeking in a 15th-century text entitledThe Book on How to Make All the Color Paints for Illuminating Books. However, translating the instructions was no easy task. It was written in the now extinct Judaeo-Portuguese language, and though the source of the dye was traced back to a plant, no name was mentioned.However, by piecing together suggestions from the text, the scientists were able to determine that the dye was made from the bluish-green berries of the chrozophora tinctoria plant. After an extensive search, the team found a few varieties of the plant growing along the roadside near the town ofMonsarazin southPortugal.The detailed instructions gave the researchers critical clues — including the best time to pick the berries. “You need to squeeze the fruits, being careful not to break the seeds, and then to put them on linen (亚麻).” The scientist says the detail was important since broken seeds polluted the pigment, producing an inferior quality ink. The dyed linen, which was left to dry, was an efficient way to store and transport the pigment during ancient times. When needed, the artist would simply cut off a piece of the cloth and dip it with water to squeeze out the blue color1 .Once the key ingredient had been identified, the researchers began to determine the dye’s molecular structure. To their surprise, they found that folium was not like any other known permanent blue dyes — it was an entirely new class of color1 , one they named chrozophoridin. “Chrozophoridin was used in ancient times to make a beautiful blue dye for painting.” the team wrote in the study. “Thus, we believe that this will not be our final word on this amazing plant and its story and that further discoveries will follow soon.”8. The primary purpose of the study is to ________.A. restore and conserve ancient precious artworksB. determine the substance making up the foliumC. prove the ancient dye-making technique was organicD. identify which class of color1 folium belongs to9. The underlined phrase “poring over”in the second paragraph means ________.A. discussing publiclyB. testing repeatedlyC. passing directlyD. reading carefully10. What can be learned about the blue dye folium?A. It was essentially an inferior type of ink.B. It was the only kind made from wild berries.C. It could be carried and used easily.D. It was carefully squeezed from broken seeds.11. The article is mainly about _________.A. how the mystery ofa thousand-year-old blue dye was solvedB. why the researchers took the trouble to recreate the dyeC. what needs to be done to make an organic dye from a plantD. when and where the discovery of the dye was madeDI was at the hardware store the other day and overheard a woman tell Ed., the manager, that fall was her favorite time of year. Ed., because he liked to keep his customers happy, agreed that fall was a wonderful season, but I could tell he was lying.I was going through my mind recently, trying to find sweet memories of fall. I failed. I met my wife in the summer and married her two summers later. My sons were born in the winter and summer, my granddaughter in the winter. I’ve been fried twice in my life, both in fall. One October, a truck carrying tofu ran a red light and hit me, destroying my favorite car, combining the three things I most hate - trucks, tofu and October.I'm not saying fall is without its attractions. The leavesare beautiful. But fall's vacillation (立场摇摆)is troubling, its effort (努力)to please everyone, its continuous search for the middle ground to be all things to all people. Say what you will about summer and winter, at least they have the courage to keep their opinions strong, even if they kill us with extreme heat or cold.I recently read a story of a man coming out of a three-month coma (昏迷). It started in early fall and ended just as winter came. I hope if I were ever in a coma I would be just as lucky as the man.Upon my awakening, one of my families who stood around my bed would ask. "Don't you remember anything from the past three months?""Not the first thing," I would happily report.If I ever have enough money. I'm going to buy a second home inAustralia, so that when fall starts here, I can move there for three months, just when spring is starting.12. What did Ed think of the customers words according to the author?A. Ed understood them and supported the customer completely.B. Ed might hold a different opinion on the topic.C. Ed believed the customer wasn't telling the truth.D. Ed thought they stood for most peoples' opinion.13. What can we infer from Paragraph 2?A.The author has a big and loving family.B. The author is having a hard time at work.C. It is important to follow the rules of the road.D. Nothing good has happened to the author in fall.14. Why does the author say the man in Paragraph 4 was lucky?A. Because he slept fall away.B. Because he ho sweet memories of fall.C. Because hedreamed of fill many times.D. Because he was met by his family when waking up.15. Which of the following does the author most want to do?A. Drivetracks.B. Eat tofu dishes.C. Watch leaves falling in fall.D. Move toAustraliain October.第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。

O n the Twentieth Century.BFor Western designers China and its rich culture have long been an inspiration for Western creative."It's no secret that China has always been a source(来源)of inspiration for designers " says Amanda Hill, chief creative officer at A+E Networks, a global media company and home to some of the biggest fashion(时尚) shows.Earlier this year, the China Through A Looking Glass exhibition in New York exhibited 140 pieces of China- inspired fashionable clothing alongside Chinese works of art, with the aim of exploring the influence of Chinese aesthetics(美学)on Western fashion and how China has fueled the fashionable imagination for centuries. The exhibition had record attendance, showing that there is huge interest in Chinese influences."China is impossible to overlook," says Hill. "Chinese models are the faces of beauty and fashion campaigns that sell dreams to women all over the world, which means Chinese women are not just consumers of fashion —they are central to its movement. "Of course, only are today's top Western designers being influenced by China- some of the best designers of contemporary fashion are themselves Chinese." Vera Wang, Alexander Wang, Jason Wu are taking on Galiano, Albaz, Marc Jacobs-and beating them hands down in design and sales," adds Hil.For Hill, it is impossible not to talk about China as the leading player when discussing fashion. "The most famous designers are Chinese, so are the models, and so are the consumers," she says. "China is no longer just another market; in many senses it has become the market. If you talk about fashion today, you are talking about China-its influences, its direction, its breathtaking clothes, and how young designers and models are finally acknowledging that in many ways."24.What can we learn about the exhibition in New York?A.It promoted the sales of artworks.B. It attracted a large number of visitors.C. It showed ancient Chinese clothes.D. It aimed to introduce Chinese models.25.What does Hill say about Chinese women?A.They are setting the fashion.B. They start many fashion campaigns.C. They admire super models.D.

Today $8 or $10 seems a small amount of money, but at that time these amounts were forbidding to most citizens. Accordingly, newspapers were read almost only by rich people in politics or the trades. In addition, most newspapers had little in them that would appeal to a mass audience. They were dull and visually forbidding. But the revolution that was taking place in the 1830s would change all that.The trend, then, was toward the "penny paper"-a term referring to papers made widely available to the public. It meant any inexpensive newspaper; perhaps more importantly it meant newspapers that could be bought in single copies on the street.This development did not take place overnight. It had been possible(but not easy)to buy single copies of newspapers before 1830,but this usually meant the reader had to go down to the printer's office to purchase a copy. Street sales were almost unknown. However, within a few years, street sales of newspapers would be commonplace in eastern cities. At first the price of single copies was seldom a penny-usually two or three cents was charged-and some of the older well-known papers charged five or six cents. But the phrase "penny paper " caught the public's fancy, and soon there would be papers that did indeed sell for only a penny.This new trend of newspapers for "the man on the street" did not begin well. Some of the early ventures(企业)were immediate failures. Publishers already in business, people who were owners of successful papers, had little desire to change the tradition. It took a few youthful and daring businessmen to get the ball rolling.28.Which of the following best describes newspapers in America before the 1830s?A. Academic.B. Unattractive.C. Inexpensive.D.

It was a disaster for printers.DMonkeys seem to have a way with numbers.A team of researchers trained three Rhesus monkeys to associate 26 clearly different symbols consistingof numbers and selective letters with 0-25 drops of water or juice as a reward. The researchers then tested how the monkeys combined—or added—the symbols to get the reward.Here's how Harvard Medical School scientist Margaret Livingstone who led the team, described the experiment: In their cages the monkeys were provided with touch screens. On one part of the screen, a symbol would appear, and on the other side two symbols inside a circle were shown. For example, the number 7 would flash on one side of the screen and the other end would have 9 and 8. If the monkeys touched the left side of the screen they would be rewarded with seven drops of water or juice; if they went for the circle, they would be rewarded with the sum of the numbers—17 in this example.After running hundreds of tests, the researchers noted that the monkeys would go for the higher values more than half the time, indicating that they were performing a calculation, not just memorizing the value of eachcombination.When the team examined the results of the experiment more closely, they noticed that the monkeys tended to underestimate(低估)a sum compared with a single symbol when the two were close in value—sometimes choosing ,for example, a 13 over the sum of 8 and 6. The underestimation was systematic: When adding two numbers, the monkeys always paid attention to the larger of the two, and then added only a fraction(小部分)of the smaller number to it."This indicates that there is a certain way quantity is represented in their brains, "Dr. Livingstone says. “But in this experiment what they're doing is paying more attention to the big number than the little one.”32.What did the researchers do to the monkeys before testing them?A.They fed them.B. They named them.C. They trained them.D. They measured them.33.How did the monkeys get their reward in the experiment?A.By drawing a circle.B. By touching a screen.C. By watching videos.D. By mixing two drinks.34.What did Livingstone's team find about the monkeys?A.They could perform basic addition.B. They could understand simple words.C. They could memorize numbers easily.D. They could hold their attention for long.35.In which section of a newspaper may this text appear?A. Entertainment.B. Health.C. Education.D.
