(8分)阅读下列短文,从下面每小题的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项According to the World Happiness Report, people who live in Denmark (丹麦) are the happiest in the world. Why? Because they know the secret to happiness — "hygge". But what is "hygge"?The Danish (丹麦的) word "hygge" (pronounced "hoo—ga") is often translated in English as "coziness". But coziness paints only part of the picture. It's also about spending peaceful time in a quiet environment with no calendar. It's about spending time alone or spending time with family. Danish people are very good at "hygge". For example, they create a "hygge" environment by burning candles in classrooms, kitchens, bedrooms, etc. According to some reports, Danish people burn more candles every year than people from any other European country.However, "hygge" isn't just about creating a nice and warm environment. It is best enjoyed with family members and friends. With up to 17 hours of darkness every day in winter, Danish people spend more time indoors as a result, and they often get together for a meal or hot drinks, without the distraction (干扰) of technology or the stress of daily life.Still can't understand what "hygge" is? If you're reading this in a comfortable chair, with a few candles around you, that sense of coziness you're feeling might just be "hygge".(1)How do Danish people create a "hygge" environment?A . By painting their houses.B . By cleaning up bedrooms.C . By burning candles.D . By shopping online.(2)With up to 17 hours of darkness every day in winter, Danish people ________.①play computer games till midnight②spend mor e time indoors as a result③stay up late to work in their own rooms④often get together for a meal or hot drinksA . ①②B . ②④C . ①③D . ③④(3)The underlined word "coziness" in the last paragraph means "________" in Chinese.A . 舒适B . 友善C . 奢侈D . 密切(4)The passage mainly tells us ________.A . when Danish people like to stay at homeB . why Danish people bum so many candlesC . how Danish people spend their winterD . what the Danish secret to happiness is四、词汇运用 (共1题;共6分)20.

They happen during “HurricaneSeason,” which is from June 1st until November 30th in the AtlanticOcean and from May 15th until November 30th in the Pacific Ocean.Kinds of HurricanesThere are five kinds of hurricanes. it helps people know a hurricane is so bad because the greater the wind speed is, the more dangerous the storm is. For example, a kind of hurricane has winds over 155 miles per hour, which are strong enough to break the buildings along the seaside completely.Hurricane DangersWhen a hurricane happens together with heavy rain, there can be a terrible flood. The centre of a hurricane is called the eye. While most of a hurricane has dangerous strong winds, when the eye is a calm area in the storm in fact. When the eye of a hurricane passes over land, people might think that it's over, but before long the wind and rain increase again as the second part of the hurricane moves through.Hurricane Safety TipsThere is no way to stop a hurricane or make it change direction, so if you ever find yourself in the path of a hurricane, be sure to remember the following safety tips.● Be sure you have a radio, fresh drinking water, and enough food.● Tell neighbor s, friends, and family members your emergency plans. Tell them where you'll go if you need to leave your home.● Stay inside during the storm. You could be badly hurt if you go outside.22. (5分)从方框内选择恰当的句子完成对话,其中有两项是多余的。

(10分)阅读理解BMost of us have ever imagined the life on a desert island. We sometimes imagine a desert island to be a sort of paradise(天堂) where the sun always shines. “Ripe fruit fall s from the trees and you are free to sit around without any work. This is really a beautiful picture, isn't it? However, the other side of the picture is quite the opposite. Life on a desert island is awful. You either starve to death or live like Robinson Crusoe, waiting for a boat which never comes.Perhaps there is some truth in both these pictures, but few of us have had the chance to find out. We can only experience it in the story like the following.Many years ago, two men spent five days on a coral island and they wished that they could stay there longer. They were driving a badly damaged boat from the Virgin Islands to Miami to have it repaired. During the journey, their boat began to sink(下沉). They quickly put food, matches, and cans of beer into a rubber dinghy(救生筏) and rowed for a few miles across the Caribbean until they arrived at a tiny coral island.There were hardly any trees on the island and there was no water, but this did not seem to be a problem. The men collected rainwater in the rubber dinghy. As they had brought a gun with them, they had plenty to eat. They caught lobster and fish every day, and they thought they lived just like a king. Five days later, a tank passed by and saved them. However, they felt sorry that they had to leave(1)What kind of life on the island was Not mentioned according to Paragraph 1?A .

The two men were sacred because of no water.B . The two men became the king on the island.C . The two men would stay on the coral island forever.D . The two men didn't want to leave the coral island.23. (6分)阅读理解I'm very thankful to the cat and it always makes me think of the time I was with him.Five years ago, when my father was dying, I travelled a thousand miles from home to be with him in his last days. I felt very sad and it was one of the most difficult and painful times in my life. After he passed away, I started alone in his flat.There were so many things to deal with. I was lonely and I hated the silence of the flat.But one evening the silence was broken: I heard crying outside. I opened the door to find a little cat on the steps. He was thin and poor. He looked the way I felt. I brought him inside and gave him a can of fish. He ate it and then almost immediately fell asleep.The next morning, I checked with neighbors and learned that the cat had been left by his owner. His owner had moved out, so the little cat was there all alone, just like I was. As I walked back to the flat, I tried to work out what to do with him. Having another thing to take care of seemed like the very last thing I needed. But as soon as I opened the flat door, he ran to me and jumped into my arms. It was clear from that moment that he didn't want to go anywhere. I started calling him Willis in order to remember my father's best friend.▲ . With Willis on my lap, time seemed to pass much faster. When the time finally came for me to return home, I had to decide what to do about Willis. There was abs-olutely no way I would leave without him.It's been five years since my father died. Over the years, several people have said how nice it was of me to rescue(拯救)the cat. But I know that we rescued each other, I may have given him a home but he gave me something greater.(1)The underlined sentence in the fourth paragraph means that _________.A . the writer would be able to look after her father with the catB . the writer would not like to take care of the catC . there was another animal the writer had to take care ofD . with the noisy cat the writer would fall asleep easily(2)Which of the following is the best for " " in the fifth paragraph?A . Willis died suddenly.B . From then on, things grew easier.C . The owner came to ask for Willis.D . My friends asked me to go back.(3)The cat rescued the writer by __________.A . showing her what real life wasB . stopping her from dying of an illnessC . staying on her lap all day longD . making her feel better in her hard times24. (8分)阅读理解What do you think when you choose where to sit in a new classroom or on a bus? Researchers have found out some interesting facts.We like to sit closer to people like ourselves. Girls sit by girls and boys sit by boys. Adults sit together and young people choose another young person to sit near. And we even choose to sit near someone who looks like us. People with glasses would like to sit near other people with glasses.People with long hair sit closer to other people with long hair.We seem to believe that people with similar habits will share similar attitude(态度). And we think we may be safer with people who are like us. Sometimes that's true but it's not so good if we always stay with the same people and the same group. If we always stay in our comfort zone(舒适区), we can only get the same ideas. We lose the chance to learn something new, find out some interesting things and hear funny stories.When we stay with the same people, how can we know different ideas? And how can we avoid being the same all the time? So get out of your comfort zone. Go and sit next to someone different.Say hello. Ask a question. Start a conversation. That's how we make friends. That's how we learnabout people. That's how we open our minds to new ideas. That's how we live an exciting life.(1)From the passage, we know that people like to sit by someone who .A . has long hairB . is like themselvesC . is youngD . can tell funny stories(2)People like staying in their comfort zone because they may .A . feel comfortable and safeB . live an exciting lifeC . find out more interesting thingsD . open their minds to new ideas(3)The underline word "avoid" means .A . 竖持B . 了解C . 避免D . 建议(4)What is the best title of the passage?A .

I was told that theeducation department was offering a “free” course called Thinking Chess for three credits . I jumped at the idea of taking the class because, after all,who doesn’t want to 1a f ew dollars? More than that, I’d alwayswanted to learn chess. And, even if I weren’t excited enough about freecredits, news about our instructor was appealing enough to me. He was aninternational grandmaster , which 2I would be learning from one of the game’sbest. I could hardly wait to him.The instructor Ashley was kind and smart, a former graduatereturning to teach, and this meet was no game for him. He meant business. Inhis introduction, he made it job real that our credits would be hard—earned. Inorder to 3the class, we had to writea paper on how we plan to 4what we would learn in class to our futureprofessions and, finally to our lives.

However, bridgebuilding experts throughout the world thought that this was a pipe dream. Itwas not practical. It had never been done before.ButRoebling refused to listen to them. He thought about the bridge day and nightand he knew deep in his heart that it could be done. After much discussion andpersuasion he convinced his son Washington, whowas a promising engineer himself, that the bridge in fact could be built.Workingtogether for the first time, the father and son developed concepts of how itcould be done. With great excitement, they hired their crew and began to buildtheir dream bridge.Theproject started well, but several months after it began, a tragic accident onthe site took the life of John Roebling. Washington was so seriously injuredthat he was never able to walk, talk or even move again.“Wetold them so”, “Crazy men and their crazy dreams”, “It’sfoolishto chase wild visions”, thecritics said and most thought the project should be ended since the Roeblingswere the only ones who knew how the bridge can be built. In spite of hishandicap Washington still had a burning desire to complete the bridge and hismind was still as sharp as ever.Washington’swife tried to inspire and pass on her husband’s enthusiasm to some of hisfriends, but they were too daunted by the task. As he lay in hishospital room, an idea suddenly hit him. All he could do was to move one fingerand he decided to make the best use of it. By moving this finger and tapping it on his wife’s arm, he slowly developed a code to communicate with her. Then he used this way to tell his wifewhat the engineers should do. It seemed crazy but the project was under wayagain. For 13 years Washington tapped out his instructions with his finger onh is wife’s arm, until the bridge was finally completed.Today thespectacular Brooklyn Bridge stands in all its glory as a tribute to the great success of one man’s spirit and his determinationnot to be defeated by circumstances .(1)The underlined word “daunted” is closest in meaning to “ “.A . unpleasantB . amazedC . scaredD . determined(2)Which of the following shows the correct order of the events that happened in the story?a.

But this common knowledge turns out wrong.A new study finds that the woman in the paintingis actually looking out at an angle that’s 15.4 degrees offto the observer’s right—well outside of the range that people normally believewhen they think someone is looking right at them. In other words, said thestudy author, Horstmann, “She’s not looking at you.” This is somewhatironic, because the entire phenomenon of aperson’s gaze in a photograph or painting seeming to follow the viewer iscalled the “Mona Lisa effect “. That effect isabsolutely real, Horstmann said. If a person is illustrated or photographedlooking straight ahead, even people viewing the portrait from an angle willfeel they are being looked at. As long as the angle of the person’s gaze is nomore than about 5 degrees off to either side, the Mona Lisa effect occurs.This is important for human interaction with onscreen characters. If you want someone off to the right side of a room to feelthat a person on—screen is looking at him or her, you don’t cut the gaze of thecharacter to that side—surprisingly, doing so would make an observer feel likethe character isn’t looking at anyone in the room at all. Instead, you keep thegaze straight ahead.Horstmann and his co—author were studying thiseffect for its application in the creation of artificial—intelligence avatars when Horstmann took a long look at the “Mona Lisa” andrealized she wasn’t looking at him.To make sure it wasn’t just him, the researchersasked 24 people to view images of the “Mona Lisa” on a computerscreen. They set a ruler between the viewer and the screen and asked theparticipants to note which number on the ruler intersected Mona Lisa’s gaze. To calculate the angle of Mona Lisa’sgaze as she looked at the vi ewer, they moved the ruler farther from or closerto the screen during the study. Consistently, the researchers found,participants judged that the woman in the “Mona Lisa” portrait wasnot looking straight at them, but slightly off to their right.So why do people repeat the belief that her eyesseem to follow the viewer? Horstmann isn’t sure. It’s possible, he said, thatpeople have the desire to be looked at, so they think the woman is lookingstraight at them. Or maybe the people who first created the term “MonaLisa effect” just thought it was a cool name.(1)It is generally believed that the woman in the painting “Mona Lisa”A . attracts the viewers to look backB . looks at the viewers wherever they standC . fixes her eyes on the back of the viewersD . seems mysterious because of her eyes(2)The purpose of the experiment involving 24 people was to .A . calculate the angle of Mona Lisa’s gazeB . create artificial-intelligence avatarsC . make sure Horstmann’s belief is rightD . explain how the Mona Lisa effect can be applied(3)What gaze range in a painting will cause the Mona Lisa effect?A .B .C .D .(4)What can we learn from the passage?A . Horstmann thinks it’s cool to create the term “Mona Lisa effect”.B . The Mona Lisa effect contributes to the creation of artificial intelligence.C . The position of the ruler in the experiment will influence the viewers’ judgement.D . Feeling being gazed at by Mona Lisa may be caused by the desire for attention.16. 阅读短文,回答问题When an animal helps another animal, it usually gets something valuable in return. For a long time, many scientiststhought that only people could act generously just because it feelsgood.However, a new study in Germany suggests that chimpanzees also do good things for no realreason. And so do children who are as young as 18 months of age. Maybe it isbecause humans and chimpanzees share an ancestor about 6 million years ago.People and chimpanzees appear to develop such features without anyother training, says Warneken, a scientist in Germany.Warneken and his partners worked on adult chimpanzees that live onan island in the African country of Uganda. They also worked with18—month—oldchildren in Germany. The researchers performed three experiments on the adultchimpanzees and two experiments on the kids. In the first animal experiment, aperson tried to reach his arm into a cage to get a stick, but he couldn’t reachit. A chimpanzee was in the cage, and it could reach the stick if it wanted to.Thirty-six chimpanzees took part in this experiment one by one,and no chimpanzee saw what the other chimpanzees had done. Even though theanimals hadn’t met the person before, they usually took the stick and gave itto the person. What’s more, they did this whether or not the p erson gave thembananas as a reward .In a similar experiment, 36 children acted in a similar way. Theyhelped the person reach the stick, whether or not they were given toys fortheir help.Researchers did other experiments on chimpanzees and babies. Norewards were given in either experiment. And still, both the chimpanzees andchildren went out of their way to help.(1)What did many scientiststhink for a long time?(2)Where did they do theexperiments?(3)How many chimpanzees tookpart in this experiment?(4)Did children act in asimilar way as chimpanzees in the experiment?四、书面表达17. 从下面两个题目中任选一题,根据中文和英文提示,完成一篇不少于50词的文段写作。
