Cooksey had left the engine running and the door unlocked.“When I saw my truck door open, I was like, ‘Oh my God, what am I going to tell my wife?’”Cooksey said.His son, Larry, was sitting in the back seat. “As soon as he opened the door, I got frightened,”said Larry. “So I pulled out the gun and pointed it to his head.”This was enough to make the carjacker think twice and he jumped out of the truck to try another car. Parked beside Cooksey’s truck was Kyle Sparling’s black Trailblazer. He too had left the engine running as he went into the store. The man got in Sparling’s SUV and took off.“I didn’t know what to think, I just kind of ran outside and watched him,” said Sparling.As the man sped off, Cooksey told Sparling to get into his truck and the two men began to run after him. The icy winter conditions made the driving difficult, but the pair followed at a safe distance as the carjacker drove in a “Z” way. After a few miles, the carjacker knocked into the sign of a local business, American Tool and Party Rental. Cooksey and Sparling called police to the place.The police put 32-year-old Ollie Dunn into prison. Sparling’s car was damaged in the wheel, and the windscreen got cracked after the sign fell on it. “I was just glad he didn’t knock intoanybody,” Sparling said. “That was my biggest fear, I think.”24.

The carjacker might run awayD. The carjacker might hurt somebodyCCars are “boxes collecting toxic(有毒的)gases”that stunt the growth of children, a leading expert has warned. Professor Sir David King said that parents should avoid driving their little ones to school and encourage them to walk instead. Vehicles(车辆)provide hardly any protection from the deadly gases, while walking is already known to be good for health.Sir David told The Guardian: “Children sitting in the backseat of vehicles are probably breathing in polluted air. You may be driving a cleaner vehicle but your children are sitting in a box collecting toxic gases from all the vehicles around you. The best thing for all our health is to leave our cars behind. It’s been shown that the advantages of walking and cycling far outweighthe costs of breathing in pollution.”Sir David added: “If more drivers knew the damage they could be doing to their children, I think they’d think twice about getting in the car.”His warming comes after recent research found that children’s brains slow down when they are put in high levels of air pollution. The study found pupils who breathed in toxic gases on the way to school had difficulty in performing as well as their classmates Spanish researchers said their findings appeared to show that polluted air is harming children’s brains as well as their lungs. Toxic air is responsible for 40,000 deaths a year in the UK---and Brussels has warned Britain it could face if it continued to break EU safety rules. Former research has shown that too much pollute air will shorten people’s life length. Air pollution falls only behind cancer, obesity and heart disease in the biggest health risks to the nation, Prime Minister Theresa May recently said.28. What does the underlined word “stunt” in Paragraph 1 mean?A. Slow downB. Speed upC. Set downD. Keep up29. What may Sir David agree with?A. It’s better to cycle or walk kids to schoolB. Driving costs more than walking and cyclingC. A cleaner vehicie will not collect toxic gasesD. Most people have a good knowledge of toxic gases30. What is the finding of the new study according to Paragraph 3?A. Air pollution only affects kids’ lungsB. Air pollution levels have risen in SpainC. Air pollution has greatly changed kids’ characterD. Air pollution may worsen kids’ school performance30. What will the UK most probably do next?A. Ignore EU safety rulesB. Take steps to improve air qualityC. Encourage people to drive cleaner vehiclesD. Stop parents from driving children to schoolDThere is an English saying that says, “Let Sleeping Dogs Lie.” It means notbringing up an old problem. Researchers in Hungary have found another reason to let dogs keep on sleeping. It seems the animals are learning while they sleep.The Hungarian researchers placed tools on the dogs’ heads to know about electrical activity in the brain. The brain activity, called sleep spindles(梭状波), takes place in human begins, and has been connected with learning. The researchers hope to understand how the dogs’ ability to learn and remember changes as they get older. The study may help them understand how human brains change as we age.The researchers found differences between male and female dogs. Iotchey, a researcher, says the females appeared much better at learning new things. Female dogs have about twice as many spindles per minute as male dogs, they also happen to be the better learners, and they memorize the task much better. But it was harder for all the older dogs to remember things, especially when several things were happening at the same time.DoraSzabo also studies sleep spindles. Szabo is a neuroscientist in a university in Budapest. She says the older dogs have fewer spindles and are easily cheated. “If you first hide the reward into one bowl, then in another and in another, they get lost after a while. So their performance is going down, and they are getting poor in solving new problems.”Researchers hope the study will not only help understanding of learning ability and memory changes in dogs, but also the aging of humans. Senior Researcher EnikoKubinyi adds that the aging dogs suffer from the same problems as humans who are aging. “Among very old dogs, up to two thirds of them show signs of dementia(痴呆), and this dementia is really very similar to that of humans, so we could use dog as a natural model of human aging.”32. Why do researchers study dogs’ sleep?A. To help the dogs sleep wellB. To study dogs’ sleeping activityC. To control dogs’ learning abilityD. To know more about human brains33. What is the relationship between the number of sleep spindles and dogs’ learning ability?A. They have nothing to do with each otherB. Dogs with less spindles have better learning abilityC. Dogs with more spindles have better learning abilityD. Dogs’ learning ability is totally decided by spindle number34. What can we know about old dogs in Paragraph 4?A. They are easy to play jokes onB. They can finish tasks one after anotherC. They are good at solving new problemsD. Their memories are not so good as before35. Which is the best title for the text?A. What we can do to let dogs sleepB. What we can learn by watching sleeping dogsC. What the saying “Let Sleeping Dogs Lie” meansD. What is the difference between humans and dogs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。

Grandparents Peter and Chris stepped on the long journey after deciding to “do something a bit different”. They traversed (横穿) cities, deserts, mountains and everything in between across Europe, the Middle East and the East Asia. The married couple of 37 years enjoyed themselves with delicious local food and spent most nights inside a tiny tent put up wherever they could find shelter.Peter, 66, said the moment they finally had a look at the famous Great Wall after a year and a half of cycling 30 miles a day was “really exciting”. At the end of their journey, the special pair didn’t fly home but instead choose to book a cabin (舱) inside a 400m-long container ship. The final part was a three-week voyage from Singapore across the Indian Ocean and into the Mediterranean Sea before arriving at Southampton.“You never know what the day is going to bring. All you know is that you aregoing to get on your bike and cycle. Every day is an adventure and every day is new. Overall, the experience is absolutely unbelievable, ” Peter said.Peter and Chris initially set out to cycle from Britain in January 2017 but were forced home. They had cycled all the way to Hungary when Peter slipped on tiles and broke his leg. After seven months of recovery, the couple set out again in Britain. They finally arrived in China in November 2018.Both Peter and Chris agreed that the best part of the entiretrip was coming across the kindness of strangers along the way, many of whom invited the couple for food and drink.

Fine particle pollution declined rapidly following the new rules on industrial emissions and the promotion of cleanfuels, according to the study, published on Monday in the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America. The study, which focused on the period from 2013-2017, was conducted by a group of Chinese researchers and scientists.PM2.5, as this kind of pollution is known, is so small that it can enter the bloodstream, potentially leading to cancer, stroke and heart attack in the long term. After rapid industrialization and weak regulations left the country with a reputation for smog and bad air quality, Chinese authorities started to take air pollution seriously in 2008.In 2013, Beijing had PM2.5 concentrations 40 times higher than levels recommended by the World Health Organization (WHO), and the governmentintroduced its toughest-ever clean air policies that year. The study found “signif icant declines” in PM2.5 levels across China from 2013-2017, with new standards for thermal power plants and industrial boilers, the replacement of old factories, and new emissions rules for vehicles. The authors say this “confirms the effectiveness of Chi na’s recent clean air actions.”These recent actions have seen Beijing fall out of the top 100 most-polluted cities in Asia in recent years, with the pollution levels 10% lower across Chinese cities between 2017 and 2018, according to a report by Greenpeace and AirVisual. Shanghai, the country’s largest city and financial capital, has also made environmental advances, such as adopting strict recycling regulations. Public pressure has been the driving force of pollution policy in China.Air pollution is a global issue, and India is now home to 22 of the 30 most polluted world cities, according to the Greenpeace and AirVisual report. In the US, a recent study said air pollutionwas linked to more than 107,000 deaths in 2011 and cost the country $866 billion.8. What saved many lives in China?A. China’s clean air policies.B. The increased particle pollution.C. The study by researchers.D. The reduction of the clean fuels.9. Why did PM2.5 cause many diseases?A. It was called smog.B. It made the air cleaner.C.

What did people in Shanghai do to protect the environment?A. They built the thermal power plants.B. They stopped using industrial boilers.C. They made Shanghai financial capital.D. They tried to recycle some rubbish.DIn the 1994 film Forrest Gump, there’s a famous saying, “Life is like a box of chocolates; you never know what you’re gonna get.” The surprise is part of the fun. Now blind box toys are bringing the magic of surprise to online shopping.A blind box toy is hidden inside uniform packaging(包装) butinvisible from the outside. You don’t know what will be inside, although the toys typically come from pop culture, ranging from movies to comics and cartoons.Blind boxes have caught on since they were first introduced from Japan to China in 2014. According to a 2019 Tmall report, the mini-series of Labubu blind box. designed by Hong Kong -born Kasing Lung, was named Champion of Unit Sales with 55,000 sold in just 9 seconds during the Singles Day shopping event. Most customers for blind boxes are young people aged 18 to 35.According to The Paper, blind box toys are popular in part because of their cute appearances. The typically cute cartoon figurines (小塑像) come in miniature (微型的) sizes, making them suitable for display almost anywhere.Even if blind boxes are not their top choice for decorations(装饰品), the mystery and uncertainty of the process also attracts people. It’s the main reason why people buy blind boxes one after another.“Fear of the unknown is always a part of the box-opening process,” said Miss Cao, 24, who lives and works in Shenyang. Speaking to Sina News, she said: “Until you open all the boxes, you cannot know what it is inside.”Opening a blind box is a delightful little surprise for our mundane daily lives, something small but fun to wait for each day, week or month. When people open this simple little box, they may be disappointed, but the uncertainty is part of the fun. People will open more blind boxes and hope for a better outcome.When someone re-makes Forrest Gump, don't be surprised if he says, “Life is like a blind box.”12.What feature of blind boxes attracts people?A.They often get toys designed by famous artists.B.They don’t know what they’ve got until they open them.C.They can learn about pop culture from the packaging.D.They can experience the excitement of online shopping.13.Why does Miss Cao love blind box toys?。

When Stanford University student Ellen Xu, now 18, was a five-year-old in San Diego, Califormia, she clearly remembers that her parents rushed her little sister to the hospital. Three-year-old Katehad fallen seriously ill; she had a fever, reddened eyes, and some swelling (肿胀) in her hands and tongue.At first, the puzzled doctors thought she ha d flu, but when her condition didn’t improve, the Xus returned to the clinic room, where a doctor by chance had a similar earlier experience with such symptoms (症状) in the blood known as Kawasaki disease. Though rare (罕见的), it’s the leading cause of the heart disease in babies and young children, and its causes remain unknown.The doctor knew how to treat it: He ordered some medicine for Kate, and finally she shook off the illness without suffering damage to her heart.Xu remembers being curious about her sister’s illness condition and was amazed that the grown-ups couldn’t answer her questions about why it was so hard to check. “In my mind, it was this puzzle I wanted to solve,” she says.Ten years later, wanting to enter a high school science fair, she had an idea. What if we had a doctor in our pocket? So she created just that: Using AI, Xu designed a program that uses visual facts to check the disease based on five physical symptoms.The technology works the same way as apps that can identify birds and plants with photos you’ve taken on your cellphone. Worried parents can upload a photo that they have taken of their child, and the technology will scan the picture for symptoms of the disease, which often have a strong visual factors, such as a swollen tongue.Xu’s invention has been applied as a web app on the website. “The technology could also be developed for recognizing some other diseases,” she says, “It means a lot to me. I want t o use AI to help people live happier and healthier lives.”Xu says that her sister Kate, now in her third year of high school with dreams of becoming an environmental engineer, is strong and healthy.4. Why did the author mention Kate’s illness?A.To expla in who treated Kate’s illness.B.To prove how serious Kate’s illness was.C.To show how much Ellen loved her sister.D.To tell why Ellen solved the puzzle in her mind.5. Why did Ellen design the program?A.To save her sister. B.To earn a prize.C.To check a rare disease. D.To identify birds and plants.6. What can best describe Ellen according to the passage?A.Determined and careful. B.Creative and helpful.C.Diligent and selfless. D.Active and easygoing.7. What is the best title for the text?A.A Girl’s Road to Invention.B.An Invention Helping Doctors.C.A Girl Recovering from a Disease. D.A New Method to Treat a Disease.A compost (堆肥) program at the Wesley School in Los Angeles is helping kindergarten through eighth grade students to teach them ways to solve human-driven climate change. For the past year, 5, 200 pounds of food waste from the school has gone into compost containers rather than a landfill where it would just break down and produce planet-warming gases.The school workers could have easily thrown the food waste into a city-provided green bin (垃圾箱) . But taking it out of sight, which would have been easier, would have missed the point, says science teacher Johnna Hampton. “When it’s invisible like that, they don’t see it, but they know it doesn’t sink in (心安) .”When sixth grader Finn saw the finished compost pile, it sank in. “That’s my orange chicken in there,” he says. “That’s not just like any food. Somewhere in there is my food.”The school will use the compost on plants around campus. Some will be offered to families that want to use it at home, and whatever is left will be donated.Fifth grader Sloan felt so encouraged by the school’s compost program she decided to take climate action outside of school. Along with severa l other fifth graders, Sloane says, “We did a lemonade stand at our friend’s house and we made over $200, and we donated it.” They also helped create a petition (请愿) to replace the plastic forks and spoons in the school cafeteria with compostable ones. Fi fth grader Kingston was excited to learn his food waste will help grow new food on campus. “It feels good that you’re doing something that helps the planet, instead of just sitting and watching it get destroyed,” he says.Jennifer Silverstein, an expert o n climate, says the school’s compost program checks a lot of the boxes for effective, positive climate education to help youth understand the crisis of human-caused climate change.8. What is the purpose of the compost program?A.To prevent wasting food. B.To deal with climate change.C.To raise money for the school. D.To keep friendship among kids.9. How did the school deal with the food waste before?A.By selling to families as compost. B.By putting into compost containers.C.By turning into new food again. D.By throwing into dustbins.10. How has the program affected Sloan?A.She has taken climate action. B.She has gained a sense of achievement.C.She has got a part-time job in the school. D.She has developed a new way to donate.11. What can we learn about the program from the last two paragraphs?A.It is well received. B.It is highly profitable.C.It needs to be more effective. D.It takes time to watch the result.A walking school bus (WSB) project can help reduce air pollution, increase the number of students walking and bicycling, and offer children and parents an opportunity to exercise and socialize, while getting to school on time!WSB is a safe and fun way for children to get physical activity as they travel to and from school. Each “bus” walks along a way with one or more parents leading it, picking children up at stops along a way designed ahead of time and walking them to school. Then it runs back in the afternoons on the way home from school under adults supervision (监管). It is that easy. You may find that families are already doing this with their children and would be glad to help more students get to school in this healthy, safe and fun way!Planning WSB seems not to be simple. But the key is to make sure you know the steps. This guide will walk you through how to plan a WSB and help to tailor (定制) your project to your school, community and students. First, get started and plan the route, and then recruit (招募) students and leaders. Finally, run and perfect your project. You may or may not choose to perform these steps in order, depending on your project.As you work through some steps in order, the WSB Planning Worksheet and Timeline will help you organize your project. Each section of the worksheet helps you record the progress: who is responsible for each task, when things need to start, and the date due to finish. These planning documents will help you organize ideas, people and time in order to improve your WSB as easily as possible.For more information, explore the references at the end of this guide.12. What does the WSB mainly aim to do?A.Advertise road safety rules. B.Help children get exercise.C.Improve student performance. D.Make transportation convenient.13. What does the underlined word bus in paragraph 2 refer to?A.A school bus. B.A project. C.Parents. D.Students.14. What do paragraphs 3 and 4 mainly talk about?A.Who to join in the WSB. B.How to arrange a project.C.When to record progress. D.Where to make a worksheet.15. Where is the text probably taken from?A.A news report. B.A scienceC.A guide.

From honoring yourself to doing small acts of kindness, there’s something you can do every day to improve yourself. 16Set goals.Positive and practical goals can give you something to struggle for. Everyone needs something to live for. 17 Not only can wanting something make you a happier and better person, but it can also help you find your purpose.Be patient.18 That doesn’t matter. Rather than getting upset when things don’t go your way, take a deep breath and remember to have patience. Try enjoying these slow moments and recognizing the positives in the situation.Be grateful.Practicing gratitude (感激) every day can help you be more positive. Gratitude is more than a feeling. 19 No matter where you are, be grateful and love your family. Take a moment to recognize that every smile or simple favor is a gift.Practice forgiveness.Forgiving yourself and others can help you improve relationships. On your journey to becoming a better person, it’s important to let go of any dissatisfaction you’re holding. 20 It’s time to move forward. Allow yourself time to forgive your past mistakes and recognize what they’ve taught you. Then, forgive those who have hurt you.A change of heartJoe woke up in a bad mood.

About 30 percent of the world’s export of tea makes its way to London. And Britain is by far the largest importer of tea in the world.Now in the second picture, you can see how tea is tasted in the Tea Trade Centre before it is sold.

Cooksey had left the engine running and the door unlocked.“When I saw my truck door open, I was like, ‘Oh my God, what am I going to tell my wife?’” Cooksey said.His son, Larry, was sitting in the back seat. “As soon as he opened the door, I got frightened,” said Larry. “So I pulled out the gun and pointed it to his head.”This was enough to make the carjacker think twice and he jumped out of the truck to try another car.

The icy winter conditions made the driving difficult, but the pair followed at a safe distance as the carjacker drove in a “Z” way. After a few miles, the carjacker knocked into the sign of a local business, American Tool and Party Rental. Cooksey and Sparling called police to the place.The police put 32-year-old Ollie Dunn into prison.

Professor Sir David King said that parents should avoid driving their little ones to school and encourage them to walk instead. Vehicles(车辆)provide hardly any protection from the deadly gases, while walking is already known to be good for health.Sir David told The Guardian: “Children sitting in the backseat of vehicles are probably breathing in polluted air. You may be driving a cleaner vehicle but your children are sitting in a box collecting toxic gases from all the vehicles around you. The best thing for all our health is to leave our cars behind. It’s been shown that the advantages of walking and cycling far outweigh the costs of breathing in pollution.” Sir David added: “If more drivers knew the damage they could be doing to their children, I think they’d think twice about getting in the car.”His warming comes after recent research found that children’s brains slow down when they are put in high levels of air pollution. The study found pupils who breathed in toxic gases on the way to school had difficulty in performing as well as their classmates Spanish researchers said their findings appeared to show that polluted air is harming children’s brains as well as their lungs.Toxic air is responsible for 40,000 deaths a year in the UK---and Brussels has warned Britain it could face if it continued to break EU safety rules. Former research has shown that too much pollute air will shorten p eople’s life length. Air pollution falls only behind cancer, obesity and heart disease in the biggest health risks to the nation, Prime Minister Theresa May recently said.28. What does the underlined word “stunt” in Paragraph 1 mean?A. Slow downB. Speed upC. Set downD. Keep up29. What may Sir David agree with?A. It’s better to cycle or walk kids to schoolB. Driving costs more than walking and cyclingC. A cleaner vehicie will not collect toxic gasesD. Most people have a good knowledge of toxic gases30. What is the finding of the new study according to Paragraph 3?A. Air pollution only affects kids’ lungsB. Air pollution levels have risen in SpainC. Air pollution has greatly changed kids’ characterD. Air pollution may worsen kids’ school performance30. What will the UK most probably do next?A. Ignore EU safety rulesB. Take steps to improve air qualityC. Encourage people to drive cleaner vehiclesD. Stop parents from driving children to schoolDThere is an English saying that says, “Let Sleeping Dogs Lie.” It means not bringing up an old problem. Researchersin Hungary have found another reason to let dogs keep on sleeping. It seems the animals are learning while they sleep.The Hungarian researchers placed tools on the dogs’ heads to know about electrical activity in the brain. The brain activity, called sleep spindles(梭状波), takes place in human begins, and has been connected with learning. The researchers hope to understand how the dogs’ ability to learn and remember changes as they get older. The study may help them understand how human brains change as we age.The researchers found differences between male and female dogs. Iotchey, a researcher, says the females appeared much better at learning new things. Female dogs have about twice as many spindles per minute as male dogs, they also happen to be the better learners, and they memorize the task much better. But it was harder for all the older dogs to remember things, especially when several things were happening at the same time.DoraSzabo also studies sleep spindles. Szabo is a neuroscientist in a university in Budapest. She says the older dogs have fewer spindles and are easily cheated. “If you first hide the reward into one bowl, then in another and in another, they get lost after a while. So their performance is going down, and they are getting poor in solving new problems.”Researchers hope the study will not only help understanding of learning ability and memory changes in dogs, but also the aging of humans. Senior Researcher EnikoKubinyi adds that the aging dogs suffer from the same problems as humans who are aging. “Among very old dogs, up to two thirds of them show signs of dementia(痴呆), and this dementia is really very similar to that of humans, so we could use dog as a natural model of human aging.”32.
