And some of their schoolmates were still inside. So he and some of the other older kids took action.“One little kid was slowing everyone down with his big backpack, ” eighth grader Destiny Fain said, “so I got it off and threw it to the side and helped to make sure all the little kids weren’t fighting or pushing. ”As that was going on, sixth grader Marketez Doyle-Smith reportedly helped another classmate who had trouble in breathing because of the smoke. “We saw our friend lying on the ground,” he said, “so we took our shirts off and waved them to get him some air to breathe.”Marketez also reportedly stopped a younger kid trying to get back on the bus to search for something he’d left behind. “We're all a family,” he told reporters. “So I went back to help the little kid.”Finally everyone made it off safely, thanks to Alex, Destiny, Marketez and several other kids.

Li Xiumei used to be in charge of a division at a company in Hangzhou, and her husband was a sales director. It was an ordinary situation where Li’s husband was on business trips a lot and Li worked overtime on weekends. City life sometimes is not easy.In 2018, they quit jobs and went back to Dongtianmu village, which lies in a forest of bamboo. The first time they drove into the village was one late afternoon. The cooking smoke was rising from the foot of the mountain, which gave them a very different feeling form thecity.The homestay was built beside her husband’s old countryside house.

We spend more time online than we should. We feel good about ourselves or bad based on how many Likes and Followers we get on social media. Young people are developing a false view of life.On the screen, we see what people want to show us. People usually only post photos where they are looking their best. They are surrounded by friends and seem that they are having a great time. No one seems sad or lonely. In short, life isfabulous. But sooner or later, our young people compare their real life to it. They find that theirs doesn’t seem as fun or exciting and grow worried that they may be missing out.No wonder teachers are reporting more anxious students. It’s reported that a lot more college students feel ―overwhelming anxiety. The percentage jumped from 50% in 2011 to 62% in 2016. Anxiety is now the most common mental-health problem in my country. It affects nearly one-third of teens and adults.Certainly, we can’t blame it on social media alone. We expect toomuch from our children and a lot of these expectations aren’t reasonable. Their schedules are packed with sports, clubs and homework. They don’t have enough free time. We want our children to succeed, and we don’t care how much it costs.As parents, we must have more balance. On one hand, we push too hard, and on the other hand, we make life too easy for children. We shouldn’t and can’t promise our children that they will always be happy. We shouldn’t try to protect them from the problems of everyday life. Let them solve the problems in person.8. What is the text mainly about?A. What causes teens’ nervousness.B. How to deal with teens’ anxiety.C. What a view of life means to people.D. How to treat social media appropriately.9. What does the underlined word “fabulous” in paragraph 2 mean?A. Wonderful.B. Encouraging.C. Anxious.D. Doubtful.10. Why does the author mention the numbers in paragraph 3?A. To draw teachers’ attention.B. To show teachers’ mental problems.C. To present the seriousness of teens’ anxiety.D. To show adults have more problems than teens.11. What should parents do to help their children out?A. Try to meet their expectations.B. Help them with their homework.C. Give them more free time to play sports.D. Allow them to solve their own problems in life.DLike all cultural institutions, galleries and art fairs are adapting to a new reality.Art Basel Hong Kong, Asia's biggest contemporary-art fair, was cancelled because of covid-19, but anyone he who had planned to visit last week could enjoy an experimental alternative：the viewing room. At the click of a keyboard) you could enter an overall view but private visual salon, without having to brave the airless Hong Kong Convention and Exhibition Centre.There, on one webpage, was Jeff Koons riffing(翻唱)on Botticelli's "Primavera" in a tribute to the history of painting at David Zwirner Gallery. Ota Fine Arts offered one collector the chance to acquire an "infinity(无限)room“, one of the most Instagrammed artworks of recent years- the creation of the fantasies,nonagenarian (九十多岁) Japanese artist, Yayoi Kusama. White Cube presented a large collection of international works by Andreas Gursky (German), Theaster Gates (American) and Beatriz Milhazes (Brazilian). But not every artist, gallery and form showed to equal advantage in this alternative fair. Not surprisingly, simple two-dimensional works in bright colours came across best No sculpture or conceptual art was includedBesides depth and texture, there are aspects of gallery hopping that a website is unlikely to copy. One isserendipity—the sense of wandering between artworks and encountering the unexpected. Another is sociability. Art is a communion between artist and viewer, but galleries and fairs are also places to swap opinions and share enthusiasms.Thereare ways to compensate (or these inevitable(不可避免的)disadvantages. As they shut their physical doors, some of the world's nest galleries and museums are offering advanced interactive visits, 360 degree videos and walk around tours of their collections, allwithout queues and high ticket prices. One of the best is laid on by the Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam；its tour allows visitors to view its Vermeers and Rembrandts, including the magnicent "Night Watch”, far more closely than would normally he possible. Another standout offering is from the Museu de Arte de SPaulo, which has an even broader collection. On its virtual platform, its pain tings,spanning 700 years, appear to be hanging in an open-plan space, seemingly hung on glass panels, or "crystal easels” as the. museum calls them, ideal for close-up inspection,12. From the paragraph 3, we may knowA. "Primavera" was originally painted by JeKoonsB.“innity room” was the most popular artworks of recent years on social mediaC. White Cube displayed a great many works by artists from different nationsD. Various paintings and statues showed on the webpage are well-received13. What does the underlined word "serendipity" in Paragraph 4 probably mean?A. surpriseB. treasureC. expectationD. compromise14.

According to a 1998 Associated Press story, this Balkan fairy tale turned into reality for one poor family. Before the start of the Bosnian war, the Malkoc family lived next to a small lake in the northwestern village of Jezero. One day in 1990, Smajo Malkoc returned from a trip to Austria with an unusual gift for his teenage sons, Dzevad and Catib: an aquarium(鱼缸) with two goldfish. Two years passed before Bosnian Serb forces advanced on Jezero.The women and children fled, and the men stayed back to resist the attacking soldiers. Smajo Malkoc was killed. When his wife, Fehima, sneaked back into the destroyed village to bury her husband and rescue what remained of their belongings, she took pity on the fish in the aquarium. She let them out into the nearby lake, saying to herself, “This way, they might be more fo rtunate than us.” Fast-forward to 1995, Fehima Malkoc returned with her sons to Jezero. Nothing but ruins remained of their home and their village. Through misty eyes she looked toward the lake. Glimpsing something strange, she walked over to the shore. “T he whole lake was shining from the thousands of golden fish in it,” she said. “It made me immediately think of my husband. This was something he left me that I never hoped for.”During the years of killing all around the lake, life underwater had flourished. After their return, Fehima Malkoc and her sons started caring for and selling the goldfish. By 1998, homes, stores, and coffee shops all over the region feature aquariums containing fish from Jezero. The Malkoc house, rebuilt on its original site, is one of the biggest in the village. Two new cars are parked in front, and the family says it has enough money to quit worrying about the future. “ It was a special kind of gift from our father,” Dzevad Malkoc said. Whenever one gives, one can never underestimate what a gift of love or an act of kindness might produce.65. Why did the woman let the fish out into the lake?A .She thought of the fairy tale. B.

A paper to be developed at the international congress of cognitive psychotherapy(认知心理疗法) in Gothenburg suggests a link between the attitudes of women abused by their parents and early exposure to the wrong sort of fairy tales. It says girls who identified with Cinderella, Rapunzel and Beauty in Beauty and the Beast were more likely to say in destructive relationships as adults.The theory was developed by Susan Darker Smith, a psychotherapist at the University of Derby. She interviewed 67 female abuse survivors and found that 61 put up with serial abuse because they believed they could change their partners and with patience, composition and love. Hardly any of the women in a control group, who had not experienced abuse, thought they could change their partners in this way.The same view was taken by male survivors who had been abused as children. These women and men said they would leave a relationship rather than put up with abuse from a partner. Ms Darker Smith found the abused women were much more likely to identify with Cinderella and other submissive female characters in fairytales, who were later rescued by a stranger prince or hero.Although most girls heard the stories, damage appeared to be done to those who adopted the submissive characters as role models. “They believe if their love is strong enough they can change their parents’ behaviors, she said.” Overexposure in children to stories that emphasize the transformational qualities of love may make women believe they can damage their partners.” For example, they might never have understood the obvious flaw(缺点) in the story of Rapunzel, who remained locked in a high tower until rescued by a knight on a white horse, who broke the door down. “The question,” said Ms Darker Smith, “is why she did not break the door down herself.”72. The passage is especially intended for _________.A. parents with young daughtersB. girls who like reading fairy storiesC. girls who think they can change their partnersD. parents with grown-up daughters73. Cinderella, Rapunzel and Beauty in Beauty and the Beast are similar in that _________.A. they all married some princesB. they all changed their partners with loveC. they were all abused by their partnersD. they all put up with abuse74. Which of the following statements is true of the women in a control group?A. They don’t believe in fairy tales.B. They don’t believe in the transformational qualities of love.C. They have also experienced abuse.D. They survived abuse.75. What does the underlined word “submissive” in the 3rd paragraph probably mean?A. kind-heartedB. obedientC. gentleD. easy-goingSection CDirections: Read the following text and choose the most suitable heading from A-F for eachparagraph. There is one extra heading which you do not need.76.Every living thing has what scientists call a biological clock that controls behavior. Thebiological clock tells plants when to form flowers and when the flowers should open. It tellsinsects when to leave the protective cocoon and fly away, and it tells animals and human beingswhen to eat, sleep and wake.77. A. Out-of-Body Factors on Biological ClocksB. Brain Cells Controlling Biological ClocksC. Biological Clocks Controlling Birds FlyingD. Benefits Studying Biological ClocksE. Inside-Body Factors on Biological ClocksF. Biological Clocks Controlling ActivitiesEvents outside the plant and animal affect the actions of some biological clock. Scientists recently found, for example, that a tiny animal changes the color of its fur because of the number of hours of daylight. In the short days of winter, its fur becomes white. The fur becomes gray brown in color in the longer hours of daylight in summer.78.Inner signals control other biological clocks. German scientists found that some kind of internal clock seems to order birds to begin their long migration flight twice each year. Birds prevented from flying become restless when it is time for the trip. But they become calm again when the time of flight has ended.79.Scientist say they are beginning to learn which parts of the brain contain biological clock. An American researcher, Martin Moorhead, said a small group of cells near the front of the brain seems to control the timing of some of our actions. These cells tell a person when to awake, when to sleep and when to seek food. Scientists say there probably are other biological clock cells that control other body activities.80.Dr. Moorhead is studying how our biological clocks affect the way we do our work. For example, most of us have great difficulty if we often change to different work hours. It can take many days for a human body to accept the major change in work hours. Dr. Moorhead said industrials officials should have a better understanding of biological clocks and how they affect workers. He said such understanding could cut sickness and accidents at work and would help increase a factory’s production.Section DDirections: Read the passage carefully. Then answer the questions and complete the statements in the fewest possible words.Booklovers, most of them, will tell you what a pleasure it is to lend a favorite read to a friend – the novel you stayed up all night to get to the end of; the travel book that made you feel as if you yourself were on a train ride through India. For a while it seemed that e-book users were to be denied this pleasure of lending to friends. You could buy a book or magazine for your reading device, but you couldn’t lend it out.But now, with the Nook, the US book chain Barnes and Noble’s response to Amazon’s Kindle, electronic readers will be able to press their latest literary enthusiasm on their friends, just like readers of physical books can. You simply email the book from your Nook and your friend can read it for two weeks, using any device with the Barnes & Noble e-book reader software. It’s a big improvement from previous e-book readers.The Nook offers other features too. You read in black and white on the main screen, just like with Kindle. The difference is that on the lower part of the device there’s a color touch screen. It allows you to browse through a book or magazine, but goes black when you’re not using it so that you save power.Another exciting thing about the Nook is that it offers Wi-Fi (无线上网服务), arguably a big advance on previous e-book readers. Customers in the United States can use the Internet connection to read whole e-books at Barnes and Noble’s hundreds of bookstores for free. None of Barnes and Noble’s competitors can come close to this.But the Nook, ironically, might just turn out to be a money-loser for Barnes and Noble, or at least a job-loser for Barnes and Noble’s employees. According to Marian Maneker at The Big Money Website, if the Nook is successful it might take sales from the company’s bookstores, eventually forcing their closure and the loss of thousands of jobs.81. What do booklovers take pleasure in, according to the passage?82. According to Paragraph 2, your friend will be able to ___________________ with the Nook.83. According to the passage, the three new features of the Nook are: lending books to yourfriends, a color touch screen and ___________________ in Barnes and Noble’s stores.84. What might happen to Barnes and Noble’s bookstores if the Nook is successful?(Note: Answer the questions and complete the statements in NO MORE THAN TEN WORDS)第II卷（45分）I.

At the age of six I fell in love with art in grade school art on Fridays was what I looked forward to each week.

What about 10? 100? Brick Fest Live, in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, took those numbers and multiplied them by thousands. Families traveled from all over the country to attend this three-day event, which included LEGO car races, mini-golf courses(球场) made of LEGO bricks, and LEGO models of the city of Philadelphia. While attendees were observing fantastic creations and making their own, they may not have realized just how much knowledge they were gaining.LEGO bricks are fun and creativity-developing toys. They also have connections to STEM topics. STEM stands for science, technology, engineering and mathematics. Chad Collins and his daughter, Jordan, are producers of Brick Fest Live. “When you play with LEGO, it wires your brain in a certain way, helping you solve problem s,” Collins said.The Philly Bick Fest Live is a look-and-touch experience, encouraging kids and families to make their own creations. People of all ages flocked to Philadelphia to witness brick Fest Live. Attendees could play a round of LEGO mini golf, buy LEGO items, make their own creations, play video games and view large-scale creations by other LEGO enthusiasts. “We want to inspire, educate and entertain,” Collins said.Brick Fest Live began in April 2012, when Chad Collins and Jordan decided to start a YouTube channel. They looked around for LEGO events in the area, but none existed. So they decided to create their own. The first Brick Fest Live brought in 24,000 people, much more than expected.Where will Brick Fest Live head to next? From September 19-21, Brick Fest Live will take place in Baltimore, Maryland. Then it travels to Cincinnati, Ohio in October and West Palm, Florida in December. Brick Fest Live comes back to Philadelphia each spring. You can visit for more information.5.

To tell us about the upcoming Brick Fest Live events.D. To tell us when the Philly Brick Fest Live will be held again.CIt was the afternoon of December 24, the day before Christmas; and as the newest doctor in our office, I had to work. The only thing that brightened my day was the beautifully decorated Christmas tree in our waiting room and a gift sent to me by a fellow I was dating—a dozen long-stemmed red roses.As I was cleaning my office, our receptionist came and said there was a lady in the front office that urgently needed to speak with me. As I stepped out, I noticed a young, tired-looking woman with a baby in her arms. Nervously, she explained that her husband—a prisoner in a nearby prisonwas my next patient. The guards were scheduled to bring him to the office that afternoon. She told me she wasn’t allowed to visit her husband in prison and that he had never seen his son. Her request was for me to let the boy’s father sit in the waiting room with her as long as possible before I called him for his appointment. Since my schedule wasn’t full, I agreed. After all, it was Christmas Eve.A short time later, her husband arrived—with chains on his feet and hands, and two armed guards as bodyguards. The woman’s tired face lit up like our little Christmas tree when her husband took a seat beside her. I kept glancing out to watch them laugh, cry and share their child. After almost an hour, I called the prisoner back to my office. While I worked, the guards stood just outside my door. The patient seemed like a gentle and modest man. I wondered what he possibly could have done t o be held under such conditions. I tried to make him as comfortable as possible.At the end of the appointment, I wished him a Merry Christmas—a difficult thing to say to a man headed back to prison. He smiled and thanked me. He also said he felt saddened by the fact he hadn’t been able to get his wife anything for Christmas. On hearing this, I was inspired with a wonderful idea.I’ll never forget the look on both their faces as the prisoner gave his wife the beautiful, long-stemmed roses. I’m not sure who experienced the most joy—the husband in giving, the wife in receiving, or myself in having the opportunity to share in this special moment.9．What can be inferred from the first paragraph?A. The writer was a newcomer to her office.B. A fellow sent her a dozen red roses as Christmas present.C. She was in low spirits because she had to work before Christmas.D.She was at work with a light heart.10．The underlined part in paragraph 3 most probably means .A. to be sent to hospitalB. to be separated from his familyC. to be comfortableD. to become a prisoner11．What does the writer learn from the story?A.

AA TV program was being videoed. Tonight it was to select the sweetest whisper of love ever said between husband and wife.The final competition was held among 10 married couples. Seven of them were young ones; two middle-aged and one old. The last turn came to the old couple. The old lady took the microphone and said the sweetest whisper of love she h as ever heard was: “Are you standing or sitting?”The host fixed his eyes on her, quite puzzled by her remarks.Regardless of all the talking around, she went on with her story. Her husband has been a doctor before he retired. One day when he was on duty at the hospital, he felt a sharp pain at the heart. By his professional knowledge he knew immediately he suffered a fit of heart attack. His colleagues carried him at once to the operation room and prepared him for a by-pass operation, which was highly risky. The patient’s family members had to be informed before it began. The patient himself was allowed to put in a word. Lying silently on the operation table with a trembling hand, he dialed after a moment’s thinking the number of his wife’s phone. Finally a familiar voice came from the other end…“So many years had passed but memory of this incident remained fresh in my mind. What he said in the beginning was: ‘Are you standing or sitting?’ He was actually worried about me, wondering how I felt at the news. He was afraid I would have fallen flat onto the ground. In such a critical（危急的）state as he was then, his thought still went to me…” The old lady concluded slowly, “That’s the sweetest whisper of love I’ve ever heard all my life.”A loud applause followed in the wake of a short silence.1．Why did the audience beg in talking after hearing the old woman’s first sentence?A．They didn’t believe what she had said. B．They couldn’t hear what she was saying.C．They felt confused by her words. D．They got bored with her story.2．What can be inferred from the fact that the old woman had to be informed of the operation?A．She had to accompany his husband.B．She would operate on his husband.C．Her husband was working in the hospital.D．It was the hospit al’s rule to do so.3．Why did the old man think for a moment before he called his wife?A．He hesitated to tell her about his condition.B．He was mindful of her wife’s safety.C．He wanted to delay being operated on.D．He was too nervous to think up his words.4．Which of the following might be the best title for the text?A．Are You Standing or Sitting.

There is no need to keep it a secret, or keep it under your hat. In fact, if I keep talking, soon enough you will start to think I am an old hat about this—a real expert. Do not be fooled, though. My friends sometimes call me a wolf in sheep’s clothing. This is someone who acts like a good person, but is really a bad person.It is always fun to get dressed up. I look great in my best clothes. When I put them on, I feel decked out. In fact, my husband says I look dressed to kill. Of course, I would never kill anyone. But, there is something special about putting on clothes that are pleasing to the eye.My best clothes are not modern or fashionable. But I really do not care. They certainly look better on me than my birthday suit. Did you know that everyone has a birthday suit? You wear it when you are wearing no clothes at all.I am very careful with my clothes. I handle them with kid gloves. I try not to get them dirty or torn. Most of my clothes fit like a glove. They fit perfectly.Some of the clothes I like best are hand-me-downs. My older sister gave them to me when she no longer wanted them. Hand-me-downs are great because clothes often cost too much money. I live on a shoestring. I have a very small budget and little money to spend on clothes.I dream that someday I will be able to live like a rich person. I will know what it is like to walk in another person’s shoes. Some of my friends got rich by riding someone else’s coat tails. They are successful today as a result of someone else being successful. But, I believe you should never criticize others for something you would do yourself. What is said about someone else can also be said about you. Remember, if the shoe fits, wear it.9．What’s the main idea about the passage?A．A clothes expert. B．English expressions about clothes.C．How to dress perfectly. D．My best clothes.10．According to the passage which of the following phrases has the similar meaning with keep ita secret?A．Walk in another person’s shoes. B．Wear a birthday suit.C．Wolf in sheep’s clothing. D．Keep it under your hat.11．What’s the real meaning of“I look dressed to kill”?A．When I wear my best clothes I feel very excited.B．When I wear my best clothes my husband always criticize me.C．When I wear my best clothes someone enjoys them.D．When I wear my best clothes I like to kill someone.12．What’s the meaning of the underlined word in the f ifth paragraph?A．Well-off. B．Badly-off. C．Cruel. D．Honest.DTeenagers who sit down to family meals are less likely to be depressed or take risks with drugs and alcohol, new research shows.A new study looking at the role of family meals in the health and wellbeing of young people is the first study on the issue in New Zealand. It uses data collected nationally from more than 9,000 secondary school pupils. It finds that those who eat with their families frequently are less likely to report suicidal（自杀的）thoughts, less likely to be smokers and less likely to indulge in drinking, drugs and so on. It says social changes such as more television channels, more mothers working and cheap fast food have changed the status of the family meal.However, the good news for New Zealand is that one-third of young people reported sharing meals with their families seven or more times a week and an additional 40 percent shared meals three to six times a week.Author Jennifer Utter, a senior lecturer at Auckland University, said sitting down for dinner created an opportunity for parents to check in with children and see how their day had been. Young people who ate with their parents reported better connectedness and better communication. Family meals indicate strong, healthy relationships. The high proportion of families eating together was encouraging, she said. “A lot of families do seem to want to spend time together. It’s a really positive finding.”Previously a household would have only one breadwinner and there would always be someone at home for children to talk to. Nowadays, it often took the income of two people to keep the family afloat（能维持下去）and it would be harder for parents to have dinner with their children. Chief families commissioner Carl Davidson said teens who ate meals with their families reported better health, and were less likely to be depressed. “We probably all know that eating together is worthwhile, but this research shows that those shared meals aren’t just nice to have but are actually a fundamental contributor to family wellbeing.”13. Why is it more difficult for parents to have dinner with their children?A. Because children are busy with their study.B. Because eating as family can make them put on weight.C. Because the meals cooked at home are not as delicious as fast food.D. Because parents have to earn money to support the whole family.14. What do the underlined words “indulge in” in Paragraph 2 probably mean?A. be tired ofB. be fit forC. be addicted toD. be content with15. Which of the following would be the best title for the passage?A. Eating as family aids teens’ health.B. Eating as family helps teens lose weight.C. Eating as family saves much energy.D. Eating as family benefits parents.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。

ATwenty years ago, I drove a taxi for a living. One night I went to pick up a passenger at 2:30 AM. When I arrived to collect, I found the building was dark except for a single light in a ground floor window.I walked to the door and knocked, ―Just a minute,‖ answered a weak, elderly voice.After a long pause, the door opened. A small woman in her eighties stood before me. By her side was a small suitcase.I took the suitcase to the car, and then returned to help the woman. She took my arm and we walked slowly toward the car.She kept thanking me for my kindness. ―It’s nothing,‖ I told her. ―I just try to treat my passengers the way I would want my mother treated.‖―Oh, you’re such a good man.‖ she said. When we got into the taxi, she gave me an address, and then asked, ―Could you drive through downtown?‖―It’s not the shortest way,‖ I answered quickly.―Oh, I’m in no hurry,‖ she said. ―I’m on my way to a hospice (临终医院). I don’t have any family left. The d octor says I don’t have very long.‖I quietly reached over and shut off the meter (计价器).For the next two hours, we drove through the city. She showed me the building where she had once worked, the neighborhood where she had lived, and the furniture shop that had once been a ballroom where she had gone dancing as a girl.Sometimes she’d ask me to slow down in front of a particular building and would sit staringinto the darkness, saying nothing.At dawn, she suddenly said,‖ I’m tired. Let’s go now.‖We drove in silence to the address she had given me.―How much do I owe you?‖ she asked.―Nothing.‖ I said.―You have to make a living,‖ she answered. ―Oh, there are other passengers,‖ I answered.Almost without thinking, I bent and gave her a hug. She held onto me tightly. Our hug ended with her remark, ―You gave an old woman a little moment of joy.‖1. The old woman chose to ride through the city in order to ______.A. show she was familiar with the cityB. reach the destination on timeC. let the driver earn more moneyD. see some places for the last time2. The taxi driver did not charge the old woman because he ______.A. was in a hurry to take other passengersB. shut off the meter by mistakeC. had received her payment in advanceD. wanted to do her a favor3. What can we learn from the story?A. An act of kindness can bring people great joy.B. People should respect each other.C. Giving is always a pleasure.D. People should learn to appreciate others’ concern.BWhat do you want to be when you grow up? A teacher? A doctor? How about an ice-cream taster?Yes, there really is a job where you can get paid to taste ice cream. Just ask John Harrison, an ―Official Taste Tester‖ for the past 21 years. Testing helps manufacturers to be sure of a product’s quality. During his career Harrison has been responsible for approving large quantities of the sweet ice cream—as well as for developing over 75 flavors（味道）.Some people think that it would be easy to do this job; after all, you just have to like ice cream, right? No—there’s more to the job than that, says Harrison, who has a degree in chemistry. He points out that a dairy or food-science degree would be very useful to someone wanting a career in this ―cool‖ field.In a typical morning on the job, Harrison tastes and assesses 60 ice-cream samples. He lets the ice cream warm up to about 12°F. Harrison explains, ―You get more flavor from warmer ice cream, which is why some kids like to stir（搅拌）it, creating ice-cream soup.‖While the ice cream warms up, Harrison looks over the samples and grades each one on its appearance. ―Tasting begins with the eyes,‖ he explains. He checks to see if the ice cream is attractive and asks himself，―Does the product have the color expected from that flavor?‖ Next it’s time to taste!Continuing to think up new ideas, try out new flavors, and test samples from so many kinds of ice cream each day keeps Harrison busy but happy – working at one cool job.4. What is John Harrison’s job?A. An official.B. An ice-cream manufacturer.C. A chemist.D. An ice-cream taster.5. According to John Harrison, to be qualified in the ―cool field‖, it is helpful to.A. think up new ideas every dayB. keep a diary of daily workC. have a degree in related subjectsD. find out new flavors each day6. What does Harrison do first when testing ice cream?A. He stirs the ice cream.B. He lets the ice cream warm up.C. He tastes the flavor of the ice cream.D. He examines the color of the ice cream.7. Which of the following is probably the best title for the passage?A. One Cool JobB. Flavors of Ice CreamC. Tasting with EyesD. John Harrison’s LifeCLast night’s meteor(流星) shower left many people in the community dissatisfied and demanding answers. According to Gabe Rothsch ild, Emerald Valley’s mayor, people gathered in the suburbs of the city, carrying heavy telescopes, expecting to watch the brightly burning meteors passing through the sky. What they found instead was a sky so brightened by the city’s lights th at it darkened the light of the meteors passing overhead.―My family was so frustrated,‖ admitted town resident Duane Cosby, ―We wanted to make this an unforgettable family outing, but it turned out to be a huge disappointment.‖Astronomers---scientists who study stars and planets----have been complaining about this problem for decades. They say that light pollution prevents them from seeing objects in the sky that they could see quite easily in the past. They call on people and the government to take measures to fight against it.There is yet a population besides professional and amateur star observers that suffers even more from light pollution. This population consists of birds, bats frogs, snakes, etc. For example, outdoor lighting severely affects migrating (迁徙的) birds. According to the International Dark-Sky Association, ―100 million birds a year throughout North America die in crashes with lighted buildings and towers.‖Countless more animals casualties（伤亡）result from the use of artificial lighting. Clearly, people enjoy the benefits of lighting their evenings, but some scientists think it can be harmful for humans, too. They worry that exposure to light while sleeping can increase person’s chances of getting cancer.Emerald Valley is only one community that is becoming aware of the negative effects of light pollution. For years, Flagstaff, Arizona, has enforced lighting regulations in its city in order to assist astronomers at the Lowell Observatory. Similar efforts have been made worldwide, and a movement is underway to remind us to turn off lights when we are not using them, so that other creatures can share the night.8. It happened last night that________.A. the city light show attracted many peopleB. the meteors flew past before being noticedC. the city’s lights affected the meteor watchingD. the meteor watching ended up a social outing9. What is the author concerned about according to Paragraph 4?A. Birds may take other migration paths.B. Anima ls’ survival is threatened by outdoor lighting.C. Varieties of animals will become sharply reduced.D. Animals’ living habits may change suddenly.10. Lighting regulations in Flagstaff, Arizona are put into effect to________.A. lessen the chance of getting cancerB. enable all creatures to live in harmonyC. ensure citizens a good sleep at nightD. create an ideal observation condition11. What message does the author most want to give us?A. Human activities should be environmentally friendly.B. Great efforts should be made to save energy.C. Saving wildlife is saving ourselves.D. New equipment should be introduced for space study.DA terrible competition is going on in England, with billions of dollars and hundreds of lives at risk. OK, that’s not true. But competitors from around the world gathered on Thursday for the annual competition to compete for the world’s biggest person who tells lies.Each participant is given up to five minutes to make up the best fib in the contest, which was founded in honor of 19th-century Bridge Inn landlord Will Ritson, who was reportedly famous for his lies. Competitors gather at the Bridge Inn every year for the competition, a small pub in northwestern England. Anyone but lawyers and politicians can take part in the competition.A study found that nearly all lies are detectable (可检测的) through visible facial muscle reactions in the person telling a lie. ―Th us, while interpersonal cheat often is highly successful, signs of hidden emotional states are communicated clearly to the informed observer,‖ the study concluded.A churchman of Carlisle reportedly holds what may be the greatest lie of all time in theco mpetition, simply stating, ―I have never told a lie in my life.‖In 2003, Abrie Krueger from South Africa became the first one to win the competition. In 2006, comedian Sue Perkins became the first female to win the competition, telling a tale about people riding camels to work as a result of climate change.12. Why does the author tell a lie at the beginning of the passage?A. He likes telling lies.B. He intends to talk about a contest.C. Lies can be detected by someone.D. Nearly everyone has told lies.13. What does the underlined word ―fib‖ in Paragraph 2 probably mean?A. Experience.B. Story.C. Lie.D. Plot.14. Who can’t take part in the competition?A. Lawyers & politicians.B. Reporters & editors.C. Doctors & teachers.D. Students & managers.15. What’s the author’s main purpose of this passage?A. To explain how to deal with lies.B. To invite people to take part in the competition.C. To discuss how to avoid telling lies.D. To introduce a strange competition.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。
