Amsterdam is a city like Venice founded on and around water or waterways. However, unlike Venice, Holland's largest city isn't only a museum. Amsterdam is a real, living and large city.The Dutch capital has clearly come a long way since it was founded. A story goes that two fishermen and a seasick dog first came there. The dog jumped ship to pour out the con- tents of his stomach and the two fishermen became the founders of Amsterdam. The reality of its founding might have something to do with the River Amstel which was built in the 13th century. Settlement developed slowly there and it took its name.Amsterdam is built on numberless canals, which neatly divide the city into easily navigable(可航行的) districts. There seems to be a canal around every corner in Amsterdam. This is not too surprising when you consider that the city is home to 165 canals, which are more than Venice.During the summer, people come together in Vondel park, where locals and tourists alike relax in the. fine weather. Amsterdam might be one of Europe's wettest capitals, but as soon as the clouds are clear and the sun shines, its citizens go out into the streets to sit in cafes, go boating on a canal, or even ride bicycles; the number of bikes in the city is more than double that of the city's population.Amsterdam's winters tend to be cold with plenty of rain, but this seldom seems to stop the tourists from gathering together in the city. Particularly cold winters also offer a good chance for visitors to watch the local people skating across the frozen canals. These days, with plenty of rail, bus and air connections to all over Europe, the Dutch capital is a year-round tourist destination as well as one of the world's key business centers.1. We can conclude from the passage that Amsterdam isA. as big as VeniceB. similar to Venice in certain aspectsC. the largest city in EuropeD. a big inland city2. What can we learn about Amsterdam from Paragraph 2?A. The city has a short history.B. The two fishermen gave the city the name.C. The city got its name from the River Amstel.D. The city was named after the seasick dog.3. In winter the tourists in Amsterdam may be advised to ______.A. relax in Vondel parkB. go boating on canalsC. drink in cafesD. watch people skating4. Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage?A. Amsterdam and Venice have a similar number of canals.B. On average each person in Amsterdam has more than two bicycles.C. It seldom rains in Amsterdam in winter because it is very cold.D. Tourists can go to Amsterdam only by ship now.第二节（共5小题，每小题2分，满分10分）根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，选项中有两项为多余选项。

AThe first Ml choir rehearsal(彩排)of the school year took place in the school hall. All the students joined together to sing. I watched as my elder sister and her grade came in and took their places next to us on the stage. Meanwhile, I could hear laughing. Some students were pointing at a girl standing next to my sister. I’d never seen this girl before. A girl whispered in my ear, “ Did you know she’s wearing diapers(纸尿裤〕？〞After school that evening, I asked my sister about the girl I’d seen. She told me her name was Theresa and that she was a very nice girl .“ Why were those kids being mean to her? I asked, “Because they’re stupid，〞 she said.One day, I was walking home from school when I heard voices behind me. “There’s the little idiot’s (傻子)sister. Does your sister wet her pants too?〞 I walked a little faster and then I felt a atone hit me in the back. When I got home, I ran down to my sister’s room.I pushed my way into her room, screaming at her. “Why do you have to be that girl’s friend? I don’t see anyone else being nice to her, 〞 Janelle yelled back, Because shes a wonderful person and she is dying!〞 I will remember those words as long as I live. Theresa wet her pants because she had an illness, which was killing her. My sister was the only one nice enough to be her friend and stick up for her.A few months later, Theresa passed away.I felt proud that Janelle was my sister. Throughout the years I watched her, and she always made friends with everyone. It didn’t matter if they ware fat, thin, brilliant or not. She never left anyone feeling isolated or alone. It was she who changed me and taught me to never look at anyone in the same way again.1. Why did other students make fun of Theresa?A. Because she was dying very soon.B.

While working blue-collar jobs, I lived in my car for a few years.On a cold winter night several years ago, I met Dr. X in the emergency room. He was a former classmate of mine, and we pretended not to know one another. He discovered I was living in car and heard some of my storied. Then he arranged for me to be admitted to the hospital for a day so I could get warmed up and recover. When I left the hospital. I found a $100 bill in the gas tank door of my van(拖车). I’m sure it was form him.I now have a home of my own and I’m doing OK, considering everything. When I sent my reservation and check to the reunion committee, it was returned uncashed with a $50 bill along with a note saying “Please don’t come.〞I guess my classmates are more closed-minded than I thought they would be. I was hoping age would change them but my wish turned out to be nothing but a joke. In addition to the reservation return, I have also seen a few forwarded emails mocking my attempts to find out about the event. I hope none of those people were blessed with a child with learning or physical issues.I guess people never change on some things. Thankfully, I have found nicer, caring people along my journey in life, and for that I’d like to thank all of the kind people in the world.4. What made the author the most remarkable student?A.

But if these feelings don’t go away or become so intense that you can’t handle them, you may be suffering from depression. 8 .Try not to isolate yourselfWhen you’re depressed, you may not feel like seeing anybody or doing anything. Just getting out of bed in the morning can be difficult, but isolating yourself only makes depression worse. 9 . Spend time with friends, especially those who are active.Keep your body healthyMaking healthy lifestyle choices can do wonders for your mood. Ever heard of a "runners high"? Physical activity can be as effective as medications for depression, so get involved in sports, ride your bike, or take a dance class. Any activity helps!10 . As for food, make sure you’re feeding your mind with plenty of fruits, vegetables, and whole grains.Avoid alcohol and drugs.You maybe try drinking or use drugs in an effort to escape from your feelings and get a "mood boost," even if just for a short time. However, substance use can not only make depression worse, but can cause you to become more depressed. 11 . You will need special treatment for your substance problem.12 .Stress and worry can lead to depression. Talk to a teacher if exams or classes seem overwhelming. In addition, if you have a health concern you feel you can’t talk to your parents about, see a doctor.

When a man takes a woman out for a dinner, it is considered impolite to help her with her chair when she gets up or sits down. On a crowding train or bus, it is proper for a man offer a woman his seat, particular if she is old or carries a baby. Even when it comes to shake hands, ladies come first. It is impolite for a man to extend his hand for a handshake upon first greeting. Unless a woman does not extend her hand to the man first, the man shouldn’t offer theirs.三、阅读理解7、任务型阅读Can a lie-in make you healthier?Every morning, my alarm goes off, I wake from my slumber and hit the snooze button. Then I crawl back under the duvet to grab a few more minutes of shut-eye. “Tonight I’ll go to bed early,” I tell myself. But, evening comes and I get a second wind, completely forgetting about my early night.Why am I finding it so difficult to get a good night’s sleep? And is it a problem?The amount we sleep has declined over the years and insomnia is on the rise. Modern technology is often blamed. The light from our smartphone affects levels of melatonin –thesleep-inducing hormone - keeping us wide awake into the early hours.Lack of sleep can badly affect our health and memory. We need deep sleep to move our memories from short-term storage into long-term storage. If we don’t get enoug h sleep, we could lose these memories. This is especially disastrous for people studying for exams.So, how can we learn to sleep better? For Professor Till Roenneberg, it's important people recognise they have an internal body clock. This determines whether you are a night owl, an early bird or somewhere in the middle. We don’t have any choice.“It’s like feet,” he said “Some people are born with big feet and some with small feet, but most people are somewhere in the middle.”Our work schedules are out of sync with our natural sleep patterns. He says this leads to “social jetlag” where people feel like they are constantly in the wrong time zone.Paul Kelley – a sleep expert from the University of Oxford – says that most people are getting up too early. He believes work and school should start a few hours later. Many companies are starting to realise more sleep can mean a more productive workforce and are changing work schedules. While in South Korea, office workers are heading to relaxation parlours at lunchtime to take power naps in hammocks or massage chairs. This is much healthier than catching forty winks while sitting on the toilet or dropping off at their desks.So, if like me you find yourself hitting your snooze button every morning – don't feel bad. It’s just our body clocks!阅读前：请联系上下文或查阅字典将文章黑体字翻译成中文。

But for Melody Ormond, it looked different because of the classmate who graduated alongside her—her grandmother,75-year-old PatOrmond. They both went to the University of Tennessee at Chattanooga(UTC) and graduated together.Pat took her first college class at Kennesaw State University 42 years ago. After one semester, she dropped out to move to Chattanooga, Tennessee, where she spent the next several decades working as an accountant and raising a family. While she did take an occasional class at UTC, she says her family continued to encourage her to go back to finish her degree, especially after she retired. She agreed when her granddaughter decided to move to study psychology at UTC after a year at Berea College in Kentucky .They both entered UTC with enough college credits to make graduating together a possibility.Pat and Melody graduated on November 20 as part of UTC’s 2020 class. The achievement has also made Pat somewhat of a celebrity.“We are so proud to have graduates like Melody Ormond and her grandmother, PatOrmond, in the UTC class of 2020,”said Steven R.Angle,UTC Chancellor,”Together, they personify the determination, commitment and love for lifelong learning we encourage in every UTC graduate.”Pat hopes that she can be an example to other non-traditional college students who want to get their degrees. “Learning never stops,” Pat said. “That’s something that my father taught me when I was young. No matter what you do, learning never stops. Even if it’s auditing(旁听) a few classes, there’s always that option. “Pat isn’t planning to stop anytime soon. She’s already working on another degree—a bachelor’s degree in history.Meanwhile, her granddaughter, who is hunting jobs, is interested in getting a master’s degree in clin ical psychology so she can become a lawyer. But she says she’s in no rush. Hernana has taught her that she has plenty of time.21.What was special for Melody’s graduation ceremony?A. It looked different from others.B. Her grandmother was 75-year-old.C. She celebrated it with all her classmates.D. Her grandmother graduated alongside her.22.What does the underlined word “personify” in Paragraph 4 mean?A. Represent.B. Follow.C. Repeat.D. Identify.23.What can we know about Pat’s family?A. They are anxious to be celebrities.B. They support and encourage each other.C. They prefer auditing regular lessons.D.They never stop creating opportunities.24.Which of the following can best describe Pat Ormond’s story?七选五FOMO stands for “fear of missing out”. It refers to the nervous or anxious feeling a person gets when they realize they are not attending a social event either because they weren’ t invited or they just didn’t feel like going. 36 This belief, in turn, can create anxiety and a sense of inferiority. FOMO bothers most teens, especially if they’re often online.One way for teens to deal with FOMO is to practice what is known as reframing (重塑) thinking. 37 Here are some tips on how teens can start to reframe their thinking.Track negative thoughts and replace them with reasonable ones. One thing teens can do to deal with FOMO is to track their negative thoughts and feelings in a journal. 38 Then, they can change their thoughts and replace the negative thoughts with something positive.39 Encourage teens to recognize that they have limited time and cannot possibly be everywhere and do everything. So, naturally, there will be social events that they cannot attend. But this does not mean that they’re necessarily missing out on somethi ng.Turn off the technology and do something else. Turning off the technology seems like a natural cure for FOMO. But just switching the phone off does not erase the feelings that FOMO causes.40 The key is to do something else entirely like reading a book or baking cookies—anything that allows them to focus on something other than social media.A. Be realistic about availability.B.There are some negative consequences of FOMO.C. Realize that no one lives a perfect life as described in social media.D. It’s a mental exercise designed to help them look at situations differently.E.In general, FOMO causes people to assume that they have a low social rank.F. Teens may still worry about missing out even if they’re not in social media at all.G. This allo ws them to observe how often they’re feeling negative about themselves.语法填空Pan, a silversmith (银匠) in Maliao village in Guizhou Province, used to dream of people living 1 abundant life in his village, where nobody has to work far away from home and customers go for beautiful silver jewellery.

They heard the story of a man who covered himself with gold and dived into a lake.

In oneclassie experiment, people were showna vertical line and asked to find a line of identical lengthfrom a selection of three.You might think that this is an absurdly easy task, and when people perform it by themselvesthey do it very well. However, psychologists have discoveredthat we are very easily swayed by the opinions of other people when wedo this task in a group. In one study, a group of three peoplewas set up,where two of the people were confederates(同伙)of the experimenter.When the confederates deliberately gave wronganswers,people were often swayed to give the wrong answer also. In fact, 75% of people gave at least one wrong answer, with some people conforming to peer pressure on every occasion.But why do people conform in this way? In an easy task like this, it seems that people donot want to step out of line with the prevailing opinion of the group. On more difficult tasks, people also conform because they lose 〔onfidence in their own ability to make decisions and preferto trust the majority opinion instead.A typical example of this kind of conformity arises when we come across people in distress.Would you help a woman who has been attacked in the street?It turns out that you are much more likely to go to her assistance if you are alone.When other people are also around,a diffusion ofresponsibility occurs. People are paralysed into inaction, because everyone assumes that someone else will go to the woman' s assistance.8. In Paragraph 1, the underlined word "conform" probablymeans“ ”A. seek independenceB. disobey ordersC. seek pleasureD. follow what others do9.What is the purpose of the experiment described in Paragraph 2? ToA. explain why people would be influenced by the opinions of othersB. prove that people are easily influenced by the opinions of othersC. train the confederates of the experimenter as independent-minded[来源:学+科+网Z+X+X+K]D. describe how people would be influenced by the opinions of others10. In the last paragraph, according to the author,why wouldn’t one help the woman ?He .A. thinks he has no responsibilities to give a handB.thinks he has has nothing to do with itC. is too shy to give his helping hand D .thinks someone elsewill offer assistance1l.What method does the author mainly use to develop the text?A. Giving examples.B. Cause-effect analysis.C. Comparative analysis.D. Process analysis.DA group of kids at McIntyre Elementary School, in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, have created a special bench to make sure their fellow classmates aren’t left out on the playground. Called the “Bud dy Bench”, students can use the seat as a safe and supportive place to let others know they’d like to be included in playtime, but may be too shy to ask.The concept of the Buddy Bench is simple: Students who want t o partake in playground games and activities, but may feel hesitant, can take a seat, which signifies(表明) to other children on the playground that they may need something extra to encourage them to participate.The idea for the bench came about last year, when Farrell,school counselor at McIntyre Elementary, was conducting a leadership group to help students overcome shyness and gain confidence. Fourfourth-grade students came up with the idea for the Buddy Bench in this workshop, and worked with Farrell to draft a letter to present to the Parent Teacher Staff Organization to make the bench a reality. The PTSO approved the students’ proposal, and installed(安装) a bright metal bench with a cheerful sign that reads “Buddy Bench” on the school’s playground.Since it wa s installed on Nov. 16, the bench has been effective. The simple concept has resonated with(引起共鸣) the students, andalready has created a better environment within the school community.“Each day, I go to see the buddy bench working,” Farrell said. “The lessons they are learning now will benefit them their entire lives. It is simply a beautiful example of kids wanting to be kind and continue to be kind every day.”12. Who is Buddy Bench created for?A. Students who love games and activities.B. Students who want and continue to be kind.C. Students who are in Farrell’s leadership group.D. Students who are left out on the playground.13. Who thought of the idea for the Buddy Bench?A.

Currently the country is now helping Texas build its own bullet train, a potential game-changer for transportation in the state.When it launched on October 1, 1964, the world's first high-speed rail network was known as the “super-express of dreams”. The first line in Japan's now world-famous shinkansen network was built against__all__odds,__in the face of fierce public opposition, technical difficulties and astronomical costs.Half a century ago, the system was far humbler. In 1964, the first track was a 320-mile-long link between Tokyo and Osaka that reduced the trip from six-and-a-half hours(on conventional trains) to three hours and 10 minutes, traveling at a maximum speed of 200 miles per hour. For the first time, workers could get to meetings in one city during the day and be back home drinking a beer in the local pub that night.Not only did the train expand mobility profoundly, but also businesses appeared around the major stops as a growing emphasis on productivity swept across Japan. Today, the shinkansen network has 1，487 miles of track, with more set to open in the coming years. It seems that everything the shinkansen touches turns to city, and regions that are off the beaten track, so to speak, benefit greatly from the economic jumpstart brought by the train. New shinkansen lines are often proceeded by aggressive marketing campaigns promoting tourism in those areas, a strategy that seems to work.Despite its astronomical costs, it actually has saved more. Today, over 350，000 annual trips transport tens of millions of passengers all over Japan with efficiency—the average delay time is less than a minute. A research report titled 30 Years of High-Speed Railways: Features and Economic and Social Effects of The Shinkansen by Hiroshi Okada, estimates that the economic impact from the shinkansen train network, based on the time saved from faster travel, is approximately ￥500 billion($4.8 billion USD) per year. Okada stresses that the cultural impact is also significant, as a shinkansen offers people living far from urban centers “easy access to concerts, exhibitions, theaters, etc., enabling them to lead fuller lives”．Japan has a plan, known as the One-Day Travel Initiative. Its goal: regardless of where you are in Japan, it should only take you three hours to get to the nearest major regional city(Tokyo, Osaka, Nagoya, Sapporo or Fukuoka). The planned impact of this hyper-mobility is to discourage the tide of migration toward urban centers, like Tokyo, and encourage decentralization.() 1. The underlined phrase in Paragraph 2 probably means “________”．A. opposed to traditional beliefsB. despite some major barriersC. based on impractical fantasiesD. in spite of poor planning() 2. According to Okada, what benefit does a shinkansen bring to people living far from urban centers?A. Saving more travelling time.B. Creating massive employment.C. Enjoying a more colorful life.D. Accumulating vast wealth.() 3. What is the main purpose of the One-Day Travel Initiative?A. To promote even distribution of population.B. To advocate urban lifestyle among migrants.C. To satisfy the increasing needs of urban centers.D. To include more citizens in urban centers.第17天Module 8Unit 3一、1. reward 2. output 3. accommodation4. admission5. disgusting二、1. changeable 2. committed 3. admission4. rewarded5. upwards三、1.A解析：考查名词辨析。

When a man takes a woman out for a dinner, it is considered impolite to help her with her chair when she gets up or sits down. On a crowding train or bus, it is proper for a man offer a woman his seat, particular if she is old or carries a baby. Even when it comes to shake hands, ladies come first. It is impolite for a man to extend his hand for a handshake upon first greeting. Unless a woman does not extend her hand to the man first, the man shouldn’t offer theirs.三、阅读理解7、任务型阅读Can a lie-in make you healthier?Every morning, my alarm goes off, I wake from my slumber and hit the snooze button. Then I crawl back under the duvet to grab a few more minutes of shut-eye. “Tonight I’ll go to bedearly,” I tell myself. But, evening comes and I get a second wind, completely forgetting about my early night.Why am I finding it so difficult to get a good night’s sleep? And is it a problem?The amount we sleep has declined over the years and insomnia is on the rise. Modern technology is often blamed. The light from our smartphone affects levels of melatonin –the sleep-inducing hormone - keeping us wide awake into the early hours.Lack of sleep can badly affect our health and memory. We need deep sleep to move our memories from short-term storage into long-term storage. If we don’t get enough sleep, we could lose these memories. This is especially disastrous for people studying for exams.So, how can we learn to sleep better? For Professor Till Roenneberg, it's important people recognise they have an internal body clock. This determines whether you are a night owl, an early bird or somewhere in the middle. We don’t have any choice.“It’s like feet,” he said “Some people are born with big feet and some with small feet, but most people are somewhere in the middle.”Our work schedules are out of sync with our natural sleep patterns. He says this leads to “social jetlag” where people feel like they are constantly in the wrong time zone.Paul Kelley – a sleep expert from the University of Oxford – says that most people are getting up too early. He believes work and school should start a few hours later. Many companies are starting to realise more sleep can mean a more productive workforce and are changing work schedules. While in South Korea, office workers are heading to relaxation parlours at lunchtime to take power naps in hammocks or massage chairs. This is much healthier than catching forty winks while sitting on the toilet or dropping off at their desks.So, if like me you find yourself hitting your snooze button every morning –don't feel bad. It’s just our body clocks!阅读前：请联系上下文或查阅字典将文章黑体字翻译成中文。
