When she lifts the cup to her lips, she smells the tea gently and looks forward to the day ahead. "Drinking a cup of tea is a form of self-reflection, Barfield said. “When I'm doi ng my praying or meditation （冥想），drinking tea allows me to sit in the moment and be present. ”Barfield, 32, fell in love with tea in 2018 after taking a trip to the Caribbean Island of Martinique where every morning with her breakfast she was served a hot cup from the couple she visited. There? the host would take live herbs from his garden, put them in a cup, and pour hot water over them. "It was very different from what we do in America ," Barfield said. "The tea had a fresher taste.”When she returned to Germantown, she was inspired to start a tea company of her own. In August, she started Viva Leaf Tea, a company that sells blended （调配的）teas from herbs and plants that Barfield grows from seed. The name of the company, Viva Leaf Tea, is a nod to the fresh herbal teas she drank in Martinique."I started a tea company for wellness reasons,” Barfield explained. "It helped me to keep my 10 years of healthcare experiences and reuse them in my own way. " Before starting Viva Leaf Tea, Earfield worked in healthcare management at several private practices in Philadelphia. In 2018, she earned a bachelor's degree in healthcare administration from Saint Joseph's University."We take all of our herbs very seriously she said. "There are thousands of tea companies all4over the world・ But you don't really know where the tea leaves come from. " Barfield provides a "farm to cup” experience for her customers. With every order, customers are provided with information about the origins of the herbs used and their possible health benefits.24. What did Barfield find from her trip to Martinique?A. Americans* love for tea.B. A new way to drink tea.C. The importance of fresh tea.D. The popularity of tea in the Caribbean.25. What does the name of Barfield's company indicate?A.

What does Barfield want to do through her company?A. Share her healthcare experiences.B. Introduce a new way to make tea.C. Inspire people to learn tea culture.D. Help people keep healthy in her way.27. What does the author try to convey in the last paragraph?A. What health benefits herbal teas have.B. How Viva Leaf Tea advertises its products.C. What makes Viva Leaf Tea's products different.D. Where customers can find the origins of herbal teas.CConstructed in the third century BC, the Terracotta Army is a collection of clay sculptures presenting the forces of the First Emperor of China—Qin Shi Huang. The figures include more than 8,000 soldiers, 130 chariots with 520 horses. Their varying clothes, facial features and body types have long impressed people. But historian Dan Snow says, “The amazing realism increases the great mystery surrounding these terracotta figures, where do they come from? They are nothing like any figure made in China before them, something changed. Something remarkable happened here 2,200 years ago."Mr Snow explains historians have long believed Ancient China remained separated from the rest of the world. But the Terracotta Army could disprove that theory.The time of the First Emperor was around 220BC, when, on the eastern edge of the Eurasian （欧亚的）landmass, was the Chinese worlds with competing mini-states over there. Over on the west of Eurasia, the Roman Empire started to expand over here and Greece was a great power.“What's going on artistically in the East and West is very different in the third century EC.5The classic Greek art is easy to recognize, with the absolute high watermark of artistic expression, beautiful——metre-and-a-half tall, human in its look. But in the Chinese world, you've got just 10cm tall, far more basic,” says Mr Snow. He continues, "Then so mething changes, in fact, everything changes—there's a revolution. Suddenly, in 220BC you get the Terracotta Army lightyears ahead of what's gone before. It starts to look far less like before and far more like what's going on in the western world, both life-size, both lifelike, both attempts at realism."This couldn't be more important, because it's always been assumed that China developed in isolation （隔离）.But if that's not the case, if the First Emperor of China imported western ideas and techniques to create his extraordinary arts, that forces us to completely rewrite the history books.28. What confused Dan Snow about the Terracotta Army?A. Why Qin Shi Huang ordered to create them.B. Who instructed ancient people to create them.C. Why their design was different from previous time.D. What kind of clothes ancient people preferred to wear.29. What do most historians think of Ancient China?A. It was closed to the outside world.E. Many mini-states coexisted peacefully.C. Building army of sculptures was very common then.D. It built a good relationship with the rest of the world.30. What can we infer about the clay sculptures in Ancient China before 220BC?A. They were in small size.B. Their styles changed greatly.C. Their facial expressions seemed real.D. They looked similar to the Greek ones.31. What is the best title for the text?A. The Development of Chinese ArtE. Westerners Found in Ancient ChinaC. The Discovery of China's Terracotta ArmyD. Historians Reconsidering the Remote Past of ChinaDMore than 5,000 species of birds manage annual round-trip migrations （迁徙）. These journeys can be thousands of miles, with many birds often returning to the exact same nesting and wintering place from year to year.Migration is very important in the life cycle of birds, and without this annual journey many birds would not be able to raise their young. Birds migrate to find the richest and most abundant food that will provide adequate energy to raise young birds. If no birds migrated, competition for adequate food during breeding （繁殖）seasons would be fierce and many birds would starve.6Of course, not all birds migrate. Some birds can take advantage of different food sources （来源）as seasons change, allowing them to stay in one place all year round. Other birds are better adapted to cold climates with thicker fat reserves and better feathers, and they can survive long cold seasons while they forage for winter food. For more than half the world's birds, however, migration is necessary to stay alive.When the timing is right for their migrating needs, birds will begin their journey. Food, weather, temperature and illness or injury are several minor aspects that may affect migration by a day or two, but most bird species follow precise migration "schedule”. While migration is at its finest during spring and fall, birds migrate all throughout the year. Migration is actually an ongoing process and there are always birds at some stage of their journeys. The distance the birds must fly, the length of time it takes to mate and the amount of young birds all affect when any one species is migrating.Migratory birds have several changes before the journey. Among them is hyperphoria, the process of migration-related weight gain. As daylight changes and migration times near, a bird's hormone levels will change and they will build a greater fat supply. Besides, old, ragged feathers create more wind drag and air resistance, which requires a bird to use more energy in flight, so many birds replace old feathers with new ones.32. Without migration, many birds would .A. stop reproducing during breeding seasonsB. abandon young birds for lack of foodC. be unable to find places for nestingD. be in danger of starvation33. What does the underlined phrase "forage for” mean in Paragraph 3?A. Run out of.B. Cut down on.C. Search for.D. Wait for.34. What can we learn about birds' migration?A. Most birds begin their journey at the arrival of spring.B. Warm temperature usually advances it by a day or two.C. There is almost little migration of birds in winter.D. Birds' migration is affected by various aspects.35. How will migratory birds benefit from the process of hyperphagia?A. They will tend to use less energy in flight.B. They will store enough energy for travelling.C. They will replace old feathers with new ones.D. They will better sense the changes of day light.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。

Our class had planted a large garden in what was once only a vacant lot. It was a lot of work but it was all worth it. 1 got blisters (水泡) from digging, and we all got insect bites, too.I learned a lot about gardening and collaboration (合作), and then I learned about the media. Our teacher telephoned the TV station and informed them of what we had accomplished. She spoke with the producer. The producer checked with the directors, but they said there were plenty of stories similar to ours. They wanted to know what was special about our particular garden, since many schools plant them.The teacher explained that, after going on the Internet to learn about the prairie (大草原), we had made a prairie garden. We had gone to a prairie and gotten seeds from the plants, and then we planted them. We did not water the garden, but we did weed it We decided to let nature water it with rain, since that was how prairies grew in the past. We sent a picture of the garden to the news station. In the picture, the grass was so high that it stood taller than the fourth grade students.As a result, the producer sent a reporter to our school. He interviewed the headmaster and asked him many questions about the garden. After that, they interviewed us, and we explained to them what we had learned through this project.That night, we watched the news, and there we were. The news reporter told our story. It was only two minutes long, but it was us. We were famous. All that work, all those blisters, it was worth it. We knew that when we saw the garden every day, but now we knew that the whole city thought so, too.4.What seemed to be the TV directors' initial reaction to the garden?A. They were excited.B. They were surprised.C. They were worried.D. They were uninterested.5.What is special about the garden?A.Weeds were allowed to spread naturally.B.The grass grew faster than common grass.C.The seeds came from the plants of a prairie.D.Underground water was used for the plants.6.What does the underlined word“that" refer to in the last paragraph?A. We got blisters on our hands.B. Our hard work was worthwhile.C. The garden would be famous.D. The project would be finished.7.How did the author feel about the project?A. Annoyed.B. Curious.C. Proud.D. Regretful.CHeads up! Across the country, sports injuries are a safety concern for young athletes. Now, the American Medical Association (AMA) has a new set of guidelines aimed at protecting players from the danger of concussions - serious injuries caused by a blow to the head.“ By raising awareness of the serious risks associated with concussions and ensuring that the appropriate guidelines are in place, we can reduce the number of young athletes who may return to the game too soon, which can. put their health at further risk," said AMA BoardMember Jack Resneck Jr, M.D., in a statement.The policy recommends that young athletes who may have a concussion be taken off the field as soon as possible. Then, they are only to return to their sport with a doctor's written approval. The policy also sets age-specific rules for health care professionals and athletic organizations in evaluating and caring for concussions.According to the Center for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), a concussion is a type of traumatic (创伤) brain injury caused by a bump, blow, or jolt to the head or hit to the body that causes the head and brain to move rapidly back and forth. This type of movement can cause the brain to bounce around or twist inside the skull ( 颅骨). It can damage brain cells and create chemical changes in the brain.The CDC says that between 1.6 million and 3.8 million traumatic brain injuries caused by sports and recreation-related activities occur in the U.S. every year. A study from the Center for Injury Research and Policy showed that as many as 40% of high school athletes return to playing before they should. The AMA'S new guidelines should help to bring those numbers down.8.Why does the AMA set the new guidelines?A.To raise safety standards of sports.B.To protect athletes from concussions.C.To set rules for health care evaluation.D.To help players return to the game quickly.9.What should young athletes who may have a concussion do?A. Avoid using the head.B. Leave the field forever.C. Get treatment in time.D. Switch to another sport.10.What is paragraph 4 mainly about?A. What a concussion is.B. What causes damage to brain cells.C. How the CDC works.D. How a concussion can be prevented.11.Which of the following is the best title for the text?A. Rules for Safer PlayB. Sports Injuries in the USC. Advice to AthletesD. New Policies for DoctorsDOrganic food is very popular. It is also expensive. Some organic food costs twice as much as non-organic food, but new parents and pet owners are willing to pay up to 200% more for organic food. However, there are people who think it is a waste of money.There is one main difference between organic and non-organic food. Organic farms do not use agricultural chemicals, such as pesticides ( 杀虫剂). In many countries organic foods have special labels. These guarantee that the products are natural.Some people think organic means locally grown. Originally this was true. Over time organic farming became more difficult. The demand for organic food grew larger than the supply. Small companies had to sell out to large companies. There weren't enough organic ingredients (原料), such as grain and cattle. This made it difficult for many organic companies to stay in business. Today, many large companies have an organic line of products.Is organic food more nutritious? This is part of the debate. Many farmers and consumersbelieve it is. They think agricultural chemicals cause health problems such as cancer. Many health professionals disagree. Few studies prove that organic foods prevent health problems. Health specialists worry more about bacteria ( 病毒), such as E.coli and salmonella. These can get into contact with organic and non- organic food. Doctors recommend washing produce very carefully. Handling meat carefully is important too.Most people agree that naturally grown food tastes better. Is tastier food worth the extra money? This is a matter of opinion. Whether it is healthier or not may require more research. However, organic consumers argue it is better to be safe than sorry.12.What is probably the major concern of organic food consumers?A. Price.B. Safety.C. Freshness.D. Variety.13.What is the doctors' suggestion?A. Grow your own food.B. Reduce the use of pesticides.C. Make sure the food is clean.D.

AMarineLand Theme ParkWith numerous rides，a variety of wildlife from both land and sea and shows filled with action-packed excitement，no wonder it’s a hit with visitors from all over the world．Whether riding on the world’s biggest steel roller coaster，Dragon Mountain，or enjoying a show filled with fun-loving dolphins and intelligent whales，you’re sure to have the time of your life at MarineLand．Having been in business for more than 50 years，this park has something for every member of the family!Highlights＆Attractions：The King Waldorf Stadium Show：This entertaining，educational and heart-warming show features dolphins，white whales，sea lions，and walruses and is sure to leave you in awe as well as help you understand and appreciate these wonderful marine mammals(海洋哺乳动物)．Arctic Cove：It featuring one of the largest white whale collections in the world，visitors are able to purchase a pass to Arctic Cove where they can touch andfeed the whales as well as view them underwater．Friendship Cove：Breathtaking underwater viewing allows you to enter the magic world of the killer whale below the water surface or on a surface level walkwav．Hotels：Villager Lodge：It is located in Niagara Falls，Ontario．Diplomat Inn：Within half a mile of the Skylon Tower，it is the choice for an inexpensive location．Marriott Niagara Falls Fallsview Hotel&Spa：It is close to popular attractions and the Scotiabank Convention Center．Days Inn Lundy’s Lane：It is located just two miles from the gorgeous Niagara Falls and the Skylon Tower Observation Deck．Hours of Operation：10：00 am-5：00 pm(Sept．11th—Oct．13th)Phone：417—823—09811．What can be learned about MarineLand Theme Park?A．It is only suitable for kids．B．It was opened fifty years ago．C．It has both 1and and marine animals．D．It has the world’s biggest roller coaster．2．What is special about Arctic Cove?A．It has the largest white whale collection in the world．B．It allows visitors to enter the magic world of the killer whale．C．It features an entertaining show starring various marine mammals．D．It provides visitors with a chance to interact with white whales personally．3．Which hotel suits you best if you have a tight budget?A．Diplomat Inn．B．Villager Lodge．C．Days Inn Lundy’s Lane．D．Marriott Niagara Fails Fallsview Hotel&Spa．BA few weeks ago，I bought a locally-grown salad from a vending machine(自动售货机)．But then I immediately realized that it was packaged in a plastic jar．“I guess I live with this jar now and forever．”I thought sadly as I stared down at my new child．The salad jar was only the latest in a long line of examples of how I am addicted to the responsibility of reusing everything，trying to never throw anything away．Water bottles have been given second lives，and berry containers are transformed into Tupperware．I recently even looked at a plastic straw in my fruit juice：Could I reuse it too…?Yet trying to squeeze my salad jar under my kitchen counter this weekend，I finally had to admit：Being an environmentalist has turned me into a hoarder(囤积者)．While keeping a certain number of jars and vegetable bags will allow me not to buy new containers，at a certain point those 30 berry containers begin to get a bit unnecessary．Who am I kidding?Then one day I came across a blog post that asks accusingly．“Are you turning your own home into a landfill(垃圾填埋场)?”In my defense，there is absolutely no excuse not to be a conscious consumer．The solution is painfully obvious，but hard to admit：Delaying waste is not，in fact，rejecting waste．In an over-packaged，over-consuming culture，this can feel like a burden．While I refuse to throw away packaging，the fact remains：I already have it．The damage is done．I’ve been ignoring one of the most essential and difficult parts—reduce，reuse，recycle．Even if I go out of my way to reuse the waste I do have，I need to reduce what I am bringing home in the first place．While I might not be ready to go full zero-waste，it’s a goal that is admirable to work toward．Until then，my salad jar child is going to make a great overnight oats jar．4．What does the author try to indicate by the last sentence in paragraph 2 ? A．How important reusing is．B．How enthusiastic she is about reusing．C．How she makes use of the plastic straw．D．Why she is responsible for reusing plastic straws．5．Why does the author say she has turned into a hoarder?A．She enjoys collecting a variety of small jars．B．She has saved far more containers than she needs．C．She likes the idea of saving fine packages in daily life．D．She stores more berry containers than other containers．6．What does the underlined word“this”in paragraph 4 refer to?A．Over-packaging．B．Delaying waste．C．Over-consuming．D．Rejecting waste．7．The author realizes at last that she should___________．A．buy fewer over-packaged goodsB．throw away unnecessary packagingC．reuse materials as much as possibleD．appreciate the value of recycling materialsCIt is common for adults to use“baby talk”when interacting with babies．This way of speaking attempts to imitate the sounds babies make when they first try to talk．But is this form of communication helpful to a child’s development?Several studies have suggested a clear link between parental language methods and a child’s early language development．Studies showed that language learning in babies was improved when parents spoke more than a few simple words and used a wider vocabulary．Earlier research found that the style of speech used by parents to communicate with their baby could have an influence on language development．One such speaking style is known as“parentese”．Research has shown that babies react better to this kind of language in the first months of life．Generally，parentese involves adults speaking in a higher voice and at a slower speed．The language is simplified，while sentences are short and often repeated．Studies from the past 30 years have confirmed that babies spoken to in parentese developed larger vocabularies throughout the first three years of life．A new study on the subject，a project of the University of Washington’s Institute for Learning & Brain Sciences，examined whether parents can be effectively taught methods to improve their parentese skills．Naj a Ferjan Ramírez．working in the Institute for Learning＆Brain Sciences，said that the parents involved in the research were first shown the importance of language input for their baby’s development．Parents were then given suggestions on how to use different parentese methods，and then rated on how well they used these methods with their child．She added that the new study is important because there are still a 1ot of parents with little knowledge about how to use parentese to help their child．This was one reason the researchers included parents from different cultural and economic groupings．8．How do parents usually talk with their babies?A．By speaking in a funny style．B．By copying babies’sounds．C．By raising speaking speed．D．By whispering in babies’ears．9．What can we learn from the second paragraph?A．Babies’language skills are decided by talent．B．Babies’language is improved by simple words．C．Parental language style helps improve babies’behavior．D．Parental language methods affect babies’language development．10．Where can you find how parents were trained in parentese skills?A．In paragraph 2．B．In paragraph 3．C．In paragraph 4．D．In paragraph 5．11．What can be the best title for the text?A．Communicating with babies matters moreB．Parentese is a good way to practice languageC．The more parents help，the better babies 1earnD．Speaking parentese helps with babies’language learningDGwheezie，a nurse，wrote about her heart attack symptoms on social media．“Last Sunday I had a heart attack．I’m alive because I called 911．I never had chest pain．It wasn’t what you read in brochures．”Gwheezie pointed out that she recently helped her neighbor clean out the garden and actually thought it was muscle strain(扭伤)．The pain ran across her upper back，shoulders and equaly down both arms．“I’d just written it off because it wasn’t really bad，”Gwheezie said．She even drove six hours to help her mother the day before the actual attack came．However，she almost died because she didn’t call it“chest pain”．“I was lucky，”she wrote．“And I wanted to warn women our heart attacks feel different．”“Pain that comes and goes seems like a surprising symptom，but it’s actually common for heart disease，”women’s health expert，Jennifer Haythe says.“Some women will experience chest pain，but it may feel different than the typical ‘crushing pain(压迫性疼痛)’men will describe．Other women won’t have chest pain at all，which can be deadly．”Sanjiv Patel，MD，says．“Women are far morelikely to develop untypical symptoms for a heart attack，including indigestion，shortness of breath，tiredness，and arm，neck and back pain，etc．”But there are ways to distinguish if the pain is heart-related．“If you have pain and it gets worse when you exhaust yourself，that’s more likely to be a sign，”Patel says．“If you have pain and difficulty breathing when you’re sitting and watching TV，you get up and walk around and it goes away，the pain is probably not related to your heart．Moreover，if it comes back the next day for a longer period of time．you’11 want to see a doctor．”“Any new symptom that doesn’t feel quite right calls for an immediate call or visit to your doctor，”Haythe says．“Take your body seriously．It’s usually telling you something．”12．Why did Gwheezie post her heart attack symptoms on social media?A．To raise some money．B．To record the process．C．To inform other women．D．To share her lucky story．13．What does the underlined phrase“written it off”in paragraph 2 probably mean? A．Ignored it．B．Recorded it．C．Treated it．D．Discovered it．14．What do Jennifer Haythe’s words indicate?A．Pain is a fairly rare symptom for heart disease．B．Chest pain may be a good thing for heart disease．C．Women are far more likely to die of heart disease．D．Men have more chest pain symptoms than women．15．How can we distinguish heart-related pain?A．Ftom the breath and sleep．B．Ftom the position and frequency．C．From the tiredness and heart beats．D．From the degree and length．第二节(共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5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。

2020年普通高等学校招生考试全国统一考试（模拟卷）英语第一部分阅读(共两节，满分50分)第一节(共15小题;每小题2.5分，满分37.5 分)AWhy go to Madrid?There may be a slight chill (寒冷) in the air, with temperatures staying around 15℃ in March, but Spain's handsome capital is slowly starting to warm up. Even more attractive are the cultural events.A new exhibition on the living and working spaces of Spain's greatest artist, Picasso, has just opened in the studio at the Fundacion Mapfre at Paseo de Recoletos 23. It runs until 11 May with rarely seen pieces borrowed from his family.Later this summer, the 400th anniversary of the death of the Renaissance (文艺复兴) painter EI Greco will be marked with an exciting exhibition at the Museo del Prado at Paseo del Prado from 24 June to 5 October.How to go?The widest range of fights is offered by EasyJet - from Bristo, Edinburgh, Gatwick, Liverpool and Luton. British Airways and its sister arline Iberia combine fores from Heathrow and London City. Ryanair flies from Manchester and Stansted; Air Europa flies from Gatwick.Barajas airport is 13km north-east of the city centre and is served by frequent trains on Metro line 8, but the shortest underground journey is a bit complex with at least one change at Nuevos Miniterios station and takes about 30 minutes. The fare to any station in the city entry is €4.50. The airport express bus runs every 15 to 35 minutes around the clock; €5 one way. It takes 40 minutes to reach the city centre. A taxi takes half the time. A flat rate of €30 covers most of central Madrid.1. When will the exhibition about Picasso close?A. On 23 March.B. On 11 May.C. On 24 June.D. On 5 October.2. Which airline operates flights from Manchester to Madrid?A. EasyJet.B. Ryanair.C. Air Europa.D. British Airways.3. What is the fastest way to reach central Madrid from Barajas airport?，A. Take a taxi.B. Take a city bus.C. Take Metro line 8.D. Take the airport express bus.My school appeared on the news last week because we had made an important change in our local area. Our class had planted a large garden in what was once only a vacant lot. It was a lot of work but it was all worth it. 1 got blisters (水泡) from digging, and we all got insect bites, too.I learned a lot about gardening and collaboration (合作), and then I learned about the media. Our teacher telephoned the TV station and informed them of what we had accomplished. She spoke with the producer. The producer checked with the directors, but they said there were plenty of stories similar to ours. They wanted to know what was special about our particular garden, since many schools plant them.The teacher explained that, after going on the Internet to learn about the prairie (大草原), we had made a prairie garden. We had gone to a prairie and gotten seeds from the plants, and then we planted them. We did not water the garden, but we did weed it We decided to let nature water it with rain, since that was how prairies grew in the past. We sent a picture of the garden to the news station. In the picture, the grass was so high that it stood taller than the fourth grade students.As a result, the producer sent a reporter to our school. He interviewed the headmaster and asked him many questions about the garden. After that, they interviewed us, and we explained to them what we had learned through this project.That night, we watched the news, and there we were. The news reporter told our story. It was only two minutes long, but it was us. We were famous. All that work, all those blisters, it was worth it. We knew that when we saw the garden every day, but now we knew that the whole city thought so, too.4. What seemed to be the TV directors' initial reaction to the garden?A. They were excited.B. They were surprised.C. They were worried.D. They were uninterested.5. What is special about the garden?A. Weeds were allowed to spread naturally.B. The grass grew faster than common grass.C.

Our hard work was worthwhile.C. The garden would be famous.D. The project would be finished.7. How did the author feel about the project?A. Annoyed.B. Curious.C. Proud.D. Regretful.Heads up! Across the country, sports injuries are a safety concern for young athletes. Now, the American Medical Association (AMA) has a new set of guidelines aimed at protecting players from the danger of concussions - serious injuries caused by a blow to the head.“By raising awareness of the serious risks associated with concussions and ensuring that the appropriate guidelines are in place, we can reduce the number of young athletes who may return to the game too soon, which can. put their health at further risk," said AMA Board Member Jack Resneck Jr, M.D., in a statement.The policy recommends that young athletes who may have a concussion be taken off the field as soon as possible. Then, they are only to return to their sport with a doctor's written approval. The policy also sets age-specific rules for health care professionals and athletic organizations in evaluating and caring for concussions.According to the Center for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), a concussion is a type of traumatic (创伤) brain injury caused by a bump, blow, or jolt to the head or hit to the body that causes the head and brain to move rapidly back and forth. This type of movement can cause the brain to bounce around or twist inside the skull (颅骨). It can damage brain cells and create chemical changes in the brain.The CDC says that between 1.6 million and 3.8 million traumatic brain injuries caused by sports and recreation-related activities occur in the U.S. every year. A study from the Center for Injury Research and Policy showed that as many as 40% of high school athletes return to playing before they should. The AMA'S new guidelines should help to bring those numbers down.8. Why does the AMA set the new guidelines?A. To raise safety standards of sports.B. To protect athletes from concussions.C. To set rules for health care evaluation.D. To help players return to the game quickly.9. What should young athletes who may have a concussion do?A. Avoid using the head.B. Leave the field forever.C. Get treatment in time.D. Switch to another sport.10. What is paragraph 4 mainly about?A. What a concussion is.B. What causes damage to brain cells.C. How the CDC works.D. How a concussion can be prevented.11. Which of the following is the best title for the text?A. Rules for Safer PlayB. Sports Injuries in the USC. Advice to AthletesD. New Policies for DoctorsOrganic food is very popular. It is also expensive. Some organic food costs twice as much as non-organic food, but new parents and pet owners are willing to pay up to 200% more for organic food. However, there are people who think it is a waste of money.There is one main difference between organic and non-organic food. Organic farms do not use agricultural chemicals, such as pesticides (杀虫剂). In many countries organic foods have special labels. These guarantee that the products are natural.Some people think organic means locally grown. Originally this was true. Over time organic farming became more difficult. The demand for organic food grew larger than the supply. Small companies had to sell out to large companies. There weren't enough organic ingredients (原料), such as grain and cattle. This made it difficult for many organic companies to stay in business. Today, many large companies have an organic line of products.Is organic food more nutritious? This is part of the debate. Many farmers and consumers believe it is. They think agricultural chemicals cause health problems such as cancer. Many health professionals disagree. Few studies prove that organic foods prevent health problems. Health specialists worry more about bacteria (病毒), such as E.coli and salmonella. These can get into contact with organic and non- organic food. Doctors recommend washing produce very carefully. Handling meat carefully is important too.Most people agree that naturally grown food tastes better. Is tastier food worth the extra money? This is a matter of opinion. Whether it is healthier or not may require more research. However, organic consumers argue it is better to be safe than sorry.12. What is probably the major concern of organic food consumers?A. Price.B. Safety.C. Freshness.D. Variety.13. What is the doctors' suggestion?A. Grow your own food.B. Reduce the use of pesticides.C. Make sure the food is clean.D. Buy large companies' products.14. Which of the following do most people agree on organic food?A. It tastes better.B. It is easier to grow.C. It contains more fat.D. It is more nutritious.15. Where does this text probably come from?A. A recipe book.B. A chemistry paper.C. A medical report.D. A health magazine.第二节(共5小题:每小题2.5分，满分12.5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。

He came to my room and sat near me. It was then that I saw his hind leg was injured and was bleeding. I called out my mother and she quickly tied a bandage around his leg and gave him food to eat. I was very upset. But the next day, Spotty was up to his usualpranks though he limped a bit. After this incident my relation with Spotty became more intense. I really admired him a lot for his courage.Almost a year later, one midnight we heard Spotty barking breathlessly. We came out and saw that he was barking continuously heading somewhere. After some time Spotty became quiet. I patted him on his back and came inside. The next day morning, my heart skipped a beat when I didn’t see Spotty. I searched for him in each and every corner but he was nowhere. And this time he had gone and would never come back. I cried and waited for him. We waited for one long week. But there were no signs of him. Then one day my Dad got transferred to Mumbai. We shifted back to Mumbai. What would have happened to Spotty? Would he have died? These were the only questions in my mind, but they all remained unanswered forever.。

AThese are the Nicest Places in America, from tiny Hayesville, North Carolina to the city of Providence, Rhode Island. You really can find kindness all over the U. S.Yassin ' s Falafel House in Knoxville. TennesseeYassin Terou, who came to Knoxville in 2011, is a well-known local person. His falafel house won the Nicest Places in America contest in 2018 because it serves as a welcoming and safe place for people of every culture who are in trouble. Even though some people don't accept him for who he is, Yassin likes to give everyone a chance because he was given a chance to realize his American dream. Katy, TexasIn 2017, Katy, Texas was hit hard by Hurricane Harvey. About 700 homes and 80 businesses were destroyed or damaged in the small town. Soon after it, local people and businesses immediately helped their neighbors recover.Kalamazoo, MichiganStudent loan debt （学生借贷） is an ever-present case for students looking to go on their education, but in Kalamazoo, it's not a problem. An organization funded by anonymous （匿名的） people called The Kalamazoo Promise pays for any student that attends Kalamazoo public schools to go to college. This town ' s amazing promise is keeping hope alive. Enoch Pratt Library in Baltimore, MarylandEnoch Pratt isn't your typical library, it's more of a community service center. In a city with high crime, it offers help to people that get in trouble with the law. Volunteers, including local lawyers doing work without getting paid, serve hundreds of people every week. This library is writing a new chapter （篇章） for Baltimore.21. We learn from Paragraph 3 that Katy ___ .A. was completely destroyedB. lived through the storm safelyC. was recovered with anonymous people's helpD. was rebuilt by local people and businesses22. What gives Baltimore a new look?A. Enoch PrattB. V oluntary workC. The effect of law.D. Community service23. The Nicest Places in America are all ___ .A. related with disastersB. full of kindnessC. about the American dreamD. of the social public serviceBI wanted to lose some weight, and I also hoped to explore the countryside. So I agreed to join a local group of walkers around Aix-en-Provence called the International Hiking Club of Provence.Exercising in the gym was a dull choice in this beautiful place, and when the wind started to blow and the water temperature dropped suddenly, the romantic idea of an everyday sea swim would disappear in my mind. Luckily, that didn't happen very often.From time to time, the group organized imaginative hikes in the countryside around Aix---Mont St Victoire, The Luberon, The Calanques, The Durance valley and other places. The journey would be tough and tiring, and you need a good pair of walking shoes. At the same time, you also need an appetite （胃口） for amazing beauties and hearty conversations with local people and foreigners.My first walk led me down the side of a cliff （悬崖） to the Calanque of Sugiton. Those sea cliffs are the highest in France. It was a great challenge for legs and afterwards, I would enjoy a treat---a refreshing sea swim. Magic! Just our little group and a few locals shared the experience together.In another hike in Provence, the good smell of wild flowers led me up a local mountain in the Luberon.Lost in those beautiful flowers and the relaxing smell, I didn't even notice my tiredness. What a simple pleasure and treat for the senses!In Provence, there are hundreds of ways to explore through woods, valleys, and quiet meadows （草地）. Mont Ventoux---the largest mountain in the region is the next goal on my list. A friend goes there regularly by bike and loves it.My hiking experiences inspired the kids to try. They walked up Mont St Victoire and down a Calanque. They complained sometimes, but they also laughed a lot. And they couldn't wait to tell their friends about the experience.24.

Ifyou've seen The LEGO Movie , you'll recognize this structure as The Dog Cloud Cuckoo Land, where all the Master Buildersmeet.To get inside, you 'Il have to make your way around a maze （迷宫） to wait for your turn but LEGO does a great job tooffer you amusement a while you wait. You'll be greeted by some great structures and provided with a wall to leave yourmark on.Once finally inside the structure, you'll find the Masters of Flight ride. It begins as the seats rotate around and you will findyourself as part of the Emmet's Triple---Decker Couch Mech! While you experience THELEGO MOVIE 2: The Second Part, get ready to feel like you're flying! You'll smell pine trees, the ocean, cotton candy andmore!

So the nonfat foods were adieter's dream! Fat-free chips and dairy products flew off the shelves. However, as it turned out, not many people becameslim and healthy from going on fat-free diets.

Fruit canbe high in calories and sugar, too, but you nutrients （营养物 ） along with it. Processed fat- free foods don 't have a olotht eorf things.We know now that all fat is not evil. Fat helps control your nervous system and encourages bone health. Fat-free salad can actually make you lose your ability to process all the good nutrients in it.When you buy a fat-free product in the store, take a second to check the nutrient information on the package. If it contains sugar, salt or artificial favors --- or has more calories than the full-fat version---put it back on the shelf. Most of the time, you ' d be better -ef a tt ivnegr sthioen f,u wllhich tastes better and will satisfy you sooner---as long as you don't eat the whole box! 32.
