A very good friend of mine approached me with an offer. “I’m going to let this job go and I was wondering if you would like to take it over?”“That would be great,” I replied.So I went to talk with the manger and he said, “You can start on Monday morning.”On Monday morning, I appeared for work extremely early. I was ready to do my best. When I went inside, I was told that I would be buffing the floors. My friend was there to show me how to operate the buffing wheel.I took the handles suddenly with a “ no problem” attitude and gave it some gas. To my surprise, the buffing wheel moved in a sudden and quick manner around in a big circle, running over my friend’s new pair of boots and making him fall on the ground.Several times, I tried to run it again but failed. “What am I going to do?” I thought to myself. “I finally find a job but I can’t do it. Am I going to have to tell them I have to leave?”After several hard days of buffing, I finally made up my mind that I was going to do this. For about a week, I struggled with the buffing wheel, putting all my weight and strength into it. Eventually, I learned the trick was not to struggle with it all, just go with the flow of it, and by the second week, I was showing off and running it with one hand.Michael Jordan said, “ Obstacles(障碍)don’t have to stop you. If you run into a wall, don’t turn around and give up. Find out how to climb it, go t hrough it, or work around it.”41. What would be the best itle for the passage?A. Never give upB. Practice makes perfectC. Rome was not built in a dayD. Failure in the mother of success42. The author accepted the job offered by his friend because___A. he liked jobs of difficultiesB. it was really a well-paid jobC. he was short of moneyD. it was really an easy job to do43. The first time the author tried the buffing wheel, he __.A. found it fun to operateB. almost lost control of itC. could make it run in a good conditionD. he hurt his friend44. According to the passage, what happened to the author at last?A. He gave up the job.B. He managed to deal with his job.C. He continued the job with the help of his friend.D. he had much difficulty in his job.BYou can pick your friends, but you can’t pick your co-workers. Yet you need these people in more ways than one. You need their cooperation in order to pe rform your own job well. You don’t have to be friends with your co-workers, but you do need to be friendly. Extending an olive branch can make your work environment a much nicer place.Do you rush into the office, eyes down and immediately start work? I f so, you’re likely to find that co-workers don’t pay attention to you or avoid you. Give a happy “Hello” as you arrive in the morning. It’s really surprising how fast this little polite behavior can remove unfriendly workplace relations.Learn the art o f small talk, such as “John, I saw this article about that singer you like,” or, “Mary, you like to draw, don’t you? I found this great new drawing room not too far from here, and thought of you right away.” Showing an interest in them will make them feel comfortable around you. Accept kind teasing. Co-workers sometimes play jokes and tease to test what kind of person you are. So if they make fun of your new shoes, don’t get angry. Let them know that you love a good joke. Of course, if the teasing is personal (about your weight or salary, for example) or makes you feel uncomfortable, you may need to take up the matter with your supervisor.People love to be asked about their opinions, so go out of your way to ask, “How do you think I should handle this situation with customer X? Then give the advice giver a sincere thank-you, even if the ideas are less than helpful.45. What does the underlined part “Extending an olive branch” probably mean?A. Giving in to your co-workers when the disagreement happens.B. Following your co-workers’ orders during the work.C. Showing a friendly attitude towards your co-workers.D. Giving your co-workers help when they are in trouble.46. The example given in the third paragraph show that you ____ to improve your relationship.A. should develop the same interest as your co-workersB. can talk with your co-workers about their interestC. should ask your co-workers to solve your problemsD. can spend your working time talking with your workers47. According to the passage, some workers play a joke on you in order to ___.A. let you notice themB. show you their interestC. show the relationship is closeD. learn about character48. What is the purpose of the passage?A. To show the importance of good relationship with co-workers.B. To advise you on how to improve you working performances.C. To advise you on how to develop good co-worker relations.D. To advise you on how to make friends with your co-workers.CWhat makes a house a home?Not size, of cour se. I’ve been in some of the grandest houses in America, and it’s really clear no one lives there. Earlier this year, I had dinner in a mud hut in Ethiopia(埃塞俄比亚), where we sat on chairs next to the hostess’s bed—a home that had more warmth than any house I’ve been in since.Now John Edwards is exploring what makes a house a home in his just-released “Home: The Blueprints of Our lives”. There Edwards writes, “This is a book about homes, the values they rest on, the dreams they are filled with, the people they have shaped. The houses and circumstances(环境) are different, but much of what you find inside will be familiar.Whether you’re sitting in an airport right now, waiting to fly to your childhood home for Thanksgiving, or in your own home waiting for the r elatives to arrive, you know what he’s talking about.We’ve lived in our townhouse for 21 years. The loose windows make noise in the wind. The fireplace is so shallow it holds only one log(木头). The kitchen widow offers a view of the world passing by. It’s where friends sit on the kitchen counter drinking wine while dinner is being fixed. I lived there for only 18, but it will always be my true home. Even the lamp in the west living room window, which I could see far down the road when driving home late at night, still shines.While all this talk about childhood memories can be warm and comforting, home is whom you’re with, not where you are. As Edwards writes, “Home is family. Home is safety. Home is faith.”Happy homecoming.49. What would be the best title for the text?A. Home Means Everything.B. What’s Inside Makes Us Feel at Home?C. Home: The Blueprints of Our Lives.D. The Importance of Home.50. About the book “Home: The Blueprints of Our Lives”, we know that____A. i t is the description of Edwards’ houseB. it is mainly about housesC. it helps us understand the concept of homeD. it is written by the author of the text51. What did the author mainly mean when he mentioned the loose windows and the shallow fireplace?A. His house was too old to live in.B. He missed the feelings of home.C. He hated living here.D. He missed his old friends too much.52. It can be inferred according to the text that____A. the author’s family were very richB. every happy home is the sameC. the author has been living a hard lifeD. the author and Edwards hold similar ideas.DColors often appear in Americans’ everyday talks. Red is a hot color and it is often used to express heat or strong feelings like anger. Americans may say they are red-hot about something unfair. However, people will also use it in other cases. For example, fast loud music is popular with many people. They may say the music is red-hot. Blue is a cool color. The traditional Blues Music in the US is slow, sad, and sorrowful. Pink is a lighter kind of red. People sometimes say they are in the pink when they are in good health. It probably comes from the fact that many babies are born with a nice pink color that shows they are in good health.The color green is natural for trees and grass. But when it is for humans, it is different. A passenger on a boat who is feeling very sick from high waves may look very green. Sometimes a person may be upset because he do esn’t have something so nice as a friend has, like a fast new car. That person may say he is green with envy. The color black is used to describe a day in which everything goes wrong. The day of a major tragedy is remembered as a black day.In some cases, colors describe a situation. Brownouts happen when there is too much demand for electricity. The electric system is unable to offer all the power needed in an area. Lights will not be bright enough in this case. Blackouts were common during World WarⅡ. Officials would order people in a city to turn off their lights to make it difficult for enemy planes to find a target in the dark of night.53. How many colors are mentioned in the passage?A.4B.5C.6D.754. If a person says he is red-hot about something unfair, it means that______.A. he is very angry about itB. he doesn’t care about itC. he is very sad about itD. he is deeply hurt by it55. What is the main purpose of this passage?A. To show the differences between different colors.B. To explain some Americans’ everyday talks based on colors.C. To explain that colors can be used to express different feelings.D. To let readers have a better understanding of colors.EPeople often talk as if shyness is a disease or mental condition that can be cured. I prefer to think of it as an emotional disability. It’s something we are born with and something we carry with us in our entire lives. There are too many people, however, who seems to be determined to find some way of doing away with their shyness. In my opinion, it’s a waste of time. I don’t mean thatwe should do nothing about it; quite the contrary, I think we need to separate the basic fact of our shyness from our ability to take part in a social environment.Look at one of the most famous shy people of them all, Johnny Carson. This man is painfully shy, yet for decades he made a living talking and associating(交往)with different people every night, in front of a national audience. Carson has never done away with his shyness, but he successfully found a way to deal with it to the extent that he could be, not just a talk show host, but a legend(传奇)among talk show hosts. Look also at Sally Fields, who has recently admitted her problem with shyness. This is a woman who has appeared in many films, TV shows and interviews, yet in her early years she was so shy that she turned out a lunch invitation from Jane Fonda because she was terribly afraid of meeting her.I guess that our shyness is there because each of us is born with some insecurity (安全感) and this insecurity prevents us from reaching out to others the way people with a more open personality do. As we grow up and become adults, we allow our social skills to grow and develop. But we are still stuck in kindergarten or elementary school or wherever it was when our shyness took root in our soul.56. In the author’s view, shyness can be explained as_____A. a disease that can be easily curedB. a not very normal mental conditionC. an emotional disabilityD. something we pick up after birth57. The author believes it’s a waste of time to _____A. develop a healthy personalityB. talk with as many people as possibleC. study where shyness comes fromD. look for ways to do with one’s shy ness58. Which of the following is TRUE of Johnny Carson?A. He dared to speak in front of a national audience.B. He did away with his shyness carefully.C. He was described as a hero in some legend books.D. He failed to become a good talk show host.59. The passage tells us that Sally Fields was___A. proud all the timeB. impolite when youngC. shy in her early yearsD. close to Jane Fonda60. The author thinks that our shyness is there because____A. we are not open enoughB. we don’t feel secure at heartC. we try to reach out to others all the timeD. we lack some social skills第二节根据对话内容, 从对话后的选项中选出能填入空白中的最佳选项.---Can I help you?---Yes, I’m looking for a sweater.---____61_____---I’m an extra large.---____62_____---Yes, that’s nice. ___63____---Certainly, there is a changing room over there.---Thank you.---____64_____---It’s too large.

It may sound strange, but a study suggests this might be true.Two British scientists studied the results of four sports in the 2004 Athens Olympic Games where the athletes had been given either a red or a blue uniform. They discovered that when there was a big difference in the score, color had no influence on the result. But if it was a close match, the athlete in a red uniform was more likely to win. Then they looked at the uniforms of the soccer teams at the Euro 2004 tournament (锦标赛). Again, teams wearing red won more games.The two scientists got their idea from earlier studies of wild animals. It had been discovered that when a male shows red on its body, it sends a signal of its power and strength. For example, in many kinds of monkey, the more the male shows off its red scars (伤疤) , the more females it can attract.Based on this fact, the British scientists thought that the idea might work for humans, too. According to them, when an athlete sees a competitor in a red uniform, he gets a feelin g that he couldn’t be stronger than his competitor. And that kind of feeling may have a bad influence on the player’s performance in the actual game.Although the idea is interesting, most people don’t accept that color signals in the animal world can real ly be useful to humans in sports. They think that it is unreasonable to develop an idea based on such a small number of examples. Much more research has to be done to prove the influence of uniform colors on the performance of athletes.4. What did the scientists find out about the 2004 Athens Olympic Games?A. Athletes dressed in red scored more in a close match.B. Game results had a big influence on the athletes.C. Athletes played equally well in four sports.D. There was a big difference in red and blu e teams’ scores.5. The underlined part “that kind of feeling” in the text refers to a feeling of .A. dangerB. shameC. prideD. weakness6. What is most people’s attitude towards the scientists’ idea?A. Interested.B. DoubtfulC. SatisfiedD. Grateful.CEverybody hates rats. But in the earthquake capitals of the world-Japan, Los Angeles, Turkey-rats will soon be man's new best friends.What happens after an earthquake? We send in rescue dogs. Why? Because they can smell people. Dogs save lives. They help rescuers to find living people. But dogs are big and they can't get into small spaces. So now a new research project is using a smaller animal to save lives: the rat.How does it work? First，the rat is trained to smell people. When this happens, the rat's brain gives a signal. This is sent to a small radio on its back, and then the rescuers follow the radio signals. When the rat's brain activity jumps, the rescuers know that someone is alive. The rat has smelled that person.Although there are already robots which can do this job, rats are better. Christian Linster at Cornell University-New York says, “Robots' noses don't work well when there are other smells around. Rats are good at that.” Rats can also see in the dark.They are cheaper and quicker to train than dogs, and unlike robots, they don't need electricity!The “rat project” is not finished, but Julie Ryan of International Rescue Corps in Scotland says, “It would be fantastic. A rat could get into spaces we couldn't get to and a rat would get out if it wasn't safe.” Perhaps for the first time in history, people will be happy to see a rat in a building (but only after an earthquake, of course).7. In the world earthquake capitals, rats will become man's best friends because they can ______.A. take the place of man's rescue jobsB. find the position of people alive who are trapped in buildingsC serve as food for people alive who are trapped in buildingsD. get into small spaces8. From the third paragraph we know the rescuers can judge a person is alive by ________.A. the noise made by the ratB. the rat's unusual behaviorC. the signal sent by the radio on the rat's backD. the smell given off by the person9. In doing rescue jobs, ________.A. rats smell better than dogsB dogs don't need to be trained to smell peopleC. robots' sense of smell can be affected by other smells aroundD. rats can not see in the dark10. After reading the passage we can know .A. nowadays rats have replaced dogs in searching for peopleB. the “rat project” has been completedC. people are now happy to see a rat in a buildingD. at present people still use dogs and robots in rescues第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，共10分）根据短文内容，从短文后的七个选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

Let’s have a look at four of them, which may give you some advice on your next travel plan.Huangshan MountainHuangshan, known as “the loveliest mountain of China”, lies in the south of Anhui Province in eastern China. The scenic spot covers 154 square kilometers, and is famous for its peaks, rocks, pines, clouds and springs. It also has a rich cultural heritage.Longmen GrottoesThe Longmen Grottoes lies in the south of Luoyang city, Henan Province. It includes the largest collection of Chinese art of the late Northern Wei and Tang dynasties, and show the achievements of Chinese stone carving (雕刻).Gulangyu IslandLocated on the entry of the Jiulong River, the island has a harmonious mixture of Western music and Eastern culture. Gulangyu is naturally referred to as the “island of music”. It is famous for its outstanding musicians and musical instruments.Ancient villages in southern AnhuiLying in southern Anhui, Xidi and Hongcun have a high historical value in buildings. The villages show the architectural features of the Huizhou-styled living houses in the period of the Ming and Qing dynasties. Xidi and Hongcun were added onto the list on November 30, 2000.1．In which place can you enjoy nature according to the text?A．Huangshan Mountain.B．Gulangyu Island.C．Longmen Grottoes.D．Ancient villages in southern Anhui. 2．Who will probably choose the Ancient villages in southern Anhui to visit?A．A couple who want to see natural scenery.B．A college student who loves the history of Tang and carving.C．A professor who plans to admire the Huizhou-styled buildings.D．A family who’d like to experience the mixture of Chinese and Western cultures.3．Where does the passage most probably come from?A．A travel guidebook.B．A history textbook.C．A scientific fiction.D．An entertainment magazine.I’ve been having trouble concentrating on one thing. It made school difficult for me. When everyone else in the class was focusing on tasks, I could not.In my first literature class, Mrs. Smith asked us to read a story and then write on it, all within 45 minutes. I raised my hand right away and said, “Mrs. Smith, you see, the doctor said I have attention problems. I might not be able to do it.” She looked at me through her glasses, “You are not different from your classmates, young man.”I tried, but I didn’t finish the reading when the bell rang. I had to take it home.In the quietness of my bedroom, the story suddenly all became clear to me. It was about a blind person, Louis Braille. He lived in a time when the blind couldn’t get much education. But Louis didn’t give up. Instead, he invented a reading system of raised dots (点), which opened up a whole new world of knowledge to the blind. Wasn’t I the “blind” in my class, being made to learn like the “sighted” students? My thoughts spilled out and my pen started to dance. I completed the task within 40 minutes. Indeed, I was not different from others; I just needed a quieter place. If Louis could find his way out of his problems, why should I ever give up?I didn’t expect anything when I handed in my paper to Mrs. Smith, so it was quite a surprise when it came back to me the next day — with an “A” on it. At the bottom of the paper were these words: “See what you can do when you keep trying?”Inspired and touched, I began to keep trying hard in my study and struggled against attention problems. I believe one can find his way out of difficulty with determination (决心) and efforts.4．Why didn’t the author finish his reading in class?A．He missed several classes before.B．He was not interested in literature.C．He always did his homework at home.D．He was unable to concentrate on his task. 5．What do we know about Louis Braille from the text?A．He was creative.B．He was shallow.C．He was tricky.D．He was well-educated.6．What kind of teacher is Mrs. Smith according to the text?A．Impatient.B．Careless.C．Disappointing.D．Encouraging. 7．What can we learn from the last paragraph?A．You can never be too old to learn.B．Do not judge a book by its cover.C．Where there is a will, there is a way.D．Only study and no play makes Jack a dull boy.Cows produce much methane (甲烷) the world’s second worst greenhouse gas, as they break down the grass. They are a large source of the greenhouse gases that are driving climate change. Now scientists have shown the pollution from cows can be reduced by adding a little seaweed (海藻) to their food.Recently, the researchers from the University of California studied 21 cows on a farm for about five months. They taught the cows to get their food from inside a special hood, which allowed the scientists to know the amount of the methane the cows were giving off. They added a small amount of seaweed to the cows’ food.The consequences were surprisingly good. In some cases, the cows produced 82% less methane. The improvement depended on the kind of food the cows were given. Even the worst-polluting cows produced 33% less methane. Over the five months, the scientists didn’t see any signs that the cows’ stomachs were getting used to the seaweed and starting to produce more methane again. What’s more, the cows that were fed seaweed gained just as much weight as the other cows.But there are still some big problems with the idea of feeding cows seaweed. For one thing, there’s not enough seaweed to feed all of the cows in the world. So farmers would have to figure out a way to grow lots of seaweed. A bigger problem is that for most of their lives, cows live in the fields, where they eat grass. That means there’s no chance to feed them seaweed every day.Still, as the study shows, something as simple as feeding cows seaweed can help reduce some of the pollution causing the climate crisis.8．Why did the researchers carry out the study?A．To test the effects of the seaweed.B．To discover healthier grass for cows.C．To improve the cows’ living conditions.D．To measure the amount of methane in the world.9．What’s the third paragraph mainly about?A．The background of the subject.B．The results of the study.C．The content of the experiment.D．The process of the research. 10．What is the biggest challenge in the researchers’ opinion?A．Seaweed is not as tasty as grass.B．Seaweed is dying out in the world.C．Cows fed with seaweed gained weight easily.D．Cows can hardly have daily access to seaweed.11．What is the author’s attitude towards the findings?A．Positive.B．Doubtful.C．Unclear.D．Negative.It is widely known that any English conversation begins with the weather. Such a fixation with the weather finds expression in Dr. Johnson’s famous comment that “When two English meet, their first talk is of weather.” Though Johnson’s observation is as accurate now as it was over two hundred years ago, people fail to come up with a good explanation for this English weather-speak.Bill Bryson, for example, says that, as the English weather is not at all exciting, the interest in it can hardly be understood. He argues that “To an outsider, the most striking thing about the English weather is that there is not very much of it.” Simply, the reason is that the unusual and unpredictable weather is almost unknown in the British Isles.Jeremy Paxman, however, disagrees with Bryson, arguing that the English weather is by nature attractive. Bryson is wrong, he says, because the English preference for the weather has nothing to do with the natural phenomena (现象). “The interest is less in the phenomena themselves, but in uncertainty.” According to him, the weather in England is very changeable and uncertain and it draws the English as well as the outsider.Bryson and Paxman stand for common misunderstandings about the weather-speak among the English. Both of them, somehow, are missing the point. The English weather conversation is not really about the weather at all. English weather-speak is a system of signs, which is developed to help the speakers overcome the natural reserve and actually talk to each other. Everyone knows conversations starting with weather-speak are not requests for weather data. Rather, they are greetings. In other words, English weather-speak is a means of social bonding.12．Why does the author mention Dr. Johnson’s comment?A．Because Dr. Johnson is famous.B．To show that most people agree with Dr. Johnson.C．Because the comment was accurate two hundred years ago.D．To show that English conversations usually start with the weather. 13．According to the passage, what does Jeremy Paxman believe?A．Bill Bryson has little knowledge of the weather.B．There is nothing special about the English weather.C．The English weather attracts people to the British Isles.D．English people talk about the weather for its uncertainty.14．What does the underlined word “draw” in Paragraph 3 most probably mean?A．To explore.B．To attract.C．To ensure.D．To digitise. 15．What is the author’s main purpose of writing the passage?A．To analyse the weather in the UK.B．To explain what English weather-speak is about.C．To argue with both Bill Bryson and Jeremy Paxman.D．To tell people that the English weather is changeable.Digital technologies are taking up too much of our time and attention. Many of us will spend a large part of our lives staring at screens, missing out on satisfying relationships. For many years, we’ve been taught that the solution to this harm is some form of digital detox (脱following three steps to achieve balance in your and your family’s digital life: Determine your problem timesIdentify the times and situations when being on screens is making your life worse. It could be when you are streaming a TV series right before bed, feeling depressed afterward and losing hours of sleep. Or you could be getting stuck on your device at the dinner table.17 Identify your top two or three problem situations.18Scrolling (滚动浏览) on TikTok for hours keeps you from sleeping and makes you feel depressed afterward, ask yourself: What is screen time replacing and what goals is it serving?

Yet, those are not tears of fear or sadness, but tears of joy and pride. It dawns on her that her decades of hard work have finally paid off. The mRNA vaccines she helped develop have saved millions of lives and helped the world find a way out of the worst of the pandemic.That remarkable woman is Professor Katalin Karikó, a Hungarian-American biochemist, who together with her colleague American immunologist Drew Weissma, was awarded the 2023 Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine for their groundbreaking work on the development of mRNA-based vaccines.Born in 1955 in Hungary, Professor Karikó had a childhood marked by hardship.

Despite the promising results in RNA-related therapy trials, she was told her research was going nowhere. Her applications were repeatedly rejected, and in 1995 she lost her position in the University of Pennsylvania and was forced to retire.the university's immunology professor Drew Weissman, and eventually they made their big breakthrough, finding a way to modify mRNA so that it could trigger an immune response, laying the groundwork for what would become the Covid mRNA vaccines.

These four human capabilities can be found in most of our daily activities, at personal, social and business level. Having a tool can definitely improve our capabilities.As any tool we invented, it robs us of something: While AI has increased human strength and required fewer resources, it reduces the need for a single person to be “strong”! We have plenty of examples of complains from the past towards the appearance of new tools.Plato, the great Greek philosopher, once reported in his dialogues of concerns raised by the use of writing, a tool that would have robbed people from their capabilities to memorize, since memories could be shifted to writings on parchment (羊皮纸). Therefore, in a way, there is nothing really new in our reaction to this new tool.The opportunities offered, however are huge, and as for previous invented tools, the time will soon come when we will no longer have an option to use or not use AI.The IBM Global AI Adoption Report based on 2022 data point s out that only 1 company in 5 is not using or planning to use AI. According to McKinsey and Gartner, the two most well-known consulting (咨询) companies, most medium and large companies are already using AI and by the end of this decade all will be using it as an integral part of their activity support. In other words, by the end of this decade, there will be two kind of companies, those using AI and those that are out of business.8．According to the author, what has AI done for us?A. Rob us of some resources.B. Reduce personal strengths.C. Improve our capabilities.D. Make decisions for humans.9．Why is Plato mentioned in the passage?A. To highlight the power of new inventions since ancient times.B. To provide an example of people's concerns about new inventions.C. To show that people have been making new inventions all the time.D. To make sure that people understand the importance of new inventions.10．What does IBM Global AI Adoption Report show?A. Only large companies will use AI.B. Mckinsey and Gartner are already using AI.C. Most companies are using or planing to use AI.D. There will be two kinds of companies in ten years.11．Which one is a suitable title for this text?A. Why Should We Use AI?B. Where Is AI Leading Us?C. What Should We Do with AI?D. To Use or Not to use AI, It’s a Question.On the side of the road in the Hoh Xil Nature Reserve in northwest China's Qinghai Province, you might see a chubby wolf wagging its tail, rolling on the ground in front of the passing cars in hopes of getting a meal. However, it was skin and bones a few months ago. It is said that the old starving wolf was kicked out of the wolf pack because of its poor hunting ability. But that all changed after a passing driver gave it two pies and posted a video of it online in July, which has made the wolf popular, with people rushing to the area to provide it with food.Since then, the wolf has given up its hunting instinct(本能) and turned to passers-by for snacks that are high in oil, sugar and salt, such as pies, roasted chicken and sausages. Subsequently, more wolves have joined this behavior. The wolfs change has led many netizens to find humor as they are actually acting like pet dogs. However, the change means that it is losing its ability to survive in nature, which is extremely dangerous to wild animals.“Wolves are part of the food web in the ecosystem, and as people continue to feed them, their habits will change, which will disrupt their role in the ecosystem and affect the stability of the ecosystem,” said Qi Xinzhang, deputy head of the Xining Wildlife Park in the province.Although wolves sit near the top of the food web, their kill rate is only 14 percent. They don't eat every day. Instead, they live a life of feast or famine, and hunger is their norm.So far, some parts of the country have enacted laws and regulations prohibiting the feeding of wild animals. Shanghai municipal government implemented regulations on October 1 this year, prohibiting the feeding of wild animals. On October 16, a newly revised wildlife protection law in southwest China's Sichuan Province made it clear that feeding anddriving away wild animals are prohibited while observing and photographing them. 12．Why was the wolf kicked out of the wolf pack?A. His old age.B. His skinny body.C. His poor hunting ability.D. His popularity on the Internet.13．Why shouldn't tourists feed wild animals?A. Because wild animal may attack humans.B. Because wild animals don't like the food.C. Because wild animals don't have to eat everyday.D. Because feeding wild animals will affect the ecosystem.14．What do we know about wolves from this passage?A. They live like dogs.B. They can always find something to eat.C. They are at the bottom of food chain.D. They don’t often succeed in hunting. 15．What can we infer from the last paragraph?A. People are taking actions to protect wild animals.B. People shouldn't observe and photograph wild animals.C. Laws are newly introduced to protect wild animals recently.D. People can feed wild animals outside Shanghai and Sichuan.二、七选五16．We watch our salt and fat intake to protect our hearts. We exercise and take calcium to protect our bones. We use sunscreen to protect our skin. ①_________ Actually there are quite a lot! Here are some suggestions from experts about what lifestyle people should be taking to protect their vision and eye health.②_________Although there's no scientific evidence that the light from electronic screens damages eyes, staring at a screen can leave eyes tired. The National Institutes of Health recommends taking a break every 20 minutes to look at something about 20 feet away for 20 seconds.Eat for your eyesResearch shows that foods rich in vitamin C, vitamin E, zinc, lutein, zeaxanthin and omega-3 fatty acids are linked to lower risk for age-related eye problems. For omega-3 fatty acids, look for fish like salmon, tuna and halibut. ③_________ For lots of vitamin C, grab citrus, strawberries, tomatoes, red and green peppers, and broccoli. For vitamin E, choose peanuts, almonds, sunflower seeds, avocado, pumpkin and asparagus. For zinc, good sources are beef, fortified cereals and especially oysters.Stop those bad habitsSmoking isn't just bad for your lungs; it can harm eyes too. Smoking is terrible. It causes dry eye disease and correlates with severe other problems. Also, try not to rub your eyes. Rubbing makes inflammation worse. ④_________Check up regularlyDon't forget to see an eye specialist for a checkup. ⑤_________ And the truth is, the earlier you find these problems, the better you get them treated. For most people, unless there are noticeable problems, regular eye check-ups on the basis of at least every two years are recommended by the doctors.A. Take a break from screensB. Not all eye problems are noticeable.C But what can we do to protect our eyes?D. The more you rub, the more uncomfortable your eyes will get.E. If you still feel your eyes are dry or getting tired, use eye drops.F. For lutein and zeaxanthin, eat dark leafy greens like spinach, kale and collard greens.G. For more information on how to protect and care for your eyes, .三、完形填空（15空）With her paddle slicing through the water swiftly, 37-year-old Chinese canoeist (皮筏艇运动员) Xie Maosan enjoyed a significant lead in the women’s KLI canoe final and won the first gold medal of the 4th Asian Para Games on Monday.Born to a rural family in Anhui Province in 1986 and afflicted by Poliomyelitis (小儿麻痹症), Xie couldn’t 1 before the age of 10.
