AThe Grand Canyon’S Hermit Trail Needs Your HelpFew hiking paths offer such great views as the Grand Canyon’s Hermit Trail．This splendid path stretches from the canyon rim to the Colorado River，with a nearly 2，000-foot drop in the first 2.5 miles．During its glorious times in the early 1900s，the impressive Hermit Trail led to a large number of campsites for tourists．Now a“shadow of its former self”due to time and natural damage，the nearly 10-mile hike is reserved only for experienced backpackers，according to the National Park Service．It’s not nearly as accessible as it used to be．That’s because the Hermit Trail is in desperate need of repairs．Rockslides and wild plants have overtaken some sections of the path，leading hikers off-route where they damageother plants．Weather has washed out some areas of the trail，making it unsafe for inexperienced hikers．But things may soon turn around，and you can help：Grand Canyon Association(GCA)，a non-profit association，is making a huge push to repair the Hermit Trail．In 2017，the organization will use traveller donations to restore(修复)this trail to its former glory．The association is an independent fundraising group that works directly with the National Park Service to restore trails in need．Starting now and through 2017，every donation made to “trail restoration”on the association’s website will go toward the Hermit Trail．If you’ve been looking to make a difference while you travel，consider this an excellent way to do so next year．See you on the trail! ‘21．Why is the Hermit Trail less accessible?A．It’s hard to find．B．It’s in bad condition．C．It’s not open to visitors．D．It’s now a nature reserve．22．What is the GCA going to do in 2017?A．Make more profits．B．Attract more tourists．C．Set up a new website．D．Repair the Hermit Trail．23．What’s the purpose of the text?A．To introduce a tourist attraction．B．To make an appeal for donations．C．To found a none-profit organization．D．To advocate environmental protection．BMy main career has been in information technology：I was“the computer guy”．Where I live in remote northern Minnesota，good tech jobs were rare．Then I got divorced and found myself a single mother with two sons in schoo1．Without a permanent job working on computers，I was concerned about my family’s future．So I sat down with my sons to discuss whether we should move to where the higher-paying jobs are．But we decided to stay and I'd go back to college for more training，even though it meantwe’d be living on less．While I work toward an education degree，I have become what’s called a Promise Fellow in a local middle schoo1．Among the“promises”we make at the start of each school year is that the students will have a caring adult in their life．no matter what．My fellow“Fellows”and I don’t teach．We do what’s called“whole-life support”because our students need more than just academics to succeed．Why? Their lives aren’t easy．The remote counties I live and work in have experienced a huge downturn in the primary-industry of iron mining．The poverty(贫困)experienced by my students and their families is often worsened by mental health problems，plus drug and alcohol abuse．With our attention，the students feel supported．Most of the kids have a lot of abilities and are smarter than they give themselves credit for．We take them to college campuses and get them to visualize their future．I had worked with two students in our 2016 graduating class at Northern Lights Community Schoo1．Both are going to college this fall．These are the same kids who laughed at me when I first mentioned college to them．So I know I’ve played a role in their lives．24．What is the topic of the text?A．The life of a computer guy．B．The life of a single mother．C．The experience with kids．D．The experience with Promise Fellow．25．Why did the author want to leave northern Minnesota at first?A．To repair her marriage．B．To comfort her children．C．To seek higher-paying jobs．D．To teach courses at a local college．26．What does the author stress in Paragraph 4?A．Why Promise Fellow is in great need．B．Why iron mining industry has declined．C．Why the remote counties suffer from poverty．D．Why families are addicted to drugs and alcoho1．27．How do the kids benefit from Promise Fellow?A．They are physically helped．B．They are financially supported．C．They receive aid from colleges．D．They get cared for in life and academics．CMy favorite movie of all time is Cool Runnings．It is silly，but also inspirational．It is loosely based on the true story about the 1988 Jamaican Bobsled team who competed in the Calgary Winter Olympics．After they qualified for the Olympics，they got three runs on three separate days．In the Jamaican’s first run，they copied the Swiss team style and technique．They ended up in last place after the first day．After some reflection and pep talks，the team went back to their roots．They were true to themselves and 100％prepared for the second run．Everything clicked and they moved into 8 th place．The final run they once again were true to themselves and more than prepared．Their starting push time was incredible．The announcer even went as far as calling them“champs”during that run．Unfortunately，that rickety old sled(雪撬)they used couldn’t hold up and they crashed．They picked up the sled and finished the race．I think you can use the three runs they had and make them relate to your lives．You can be like the first run and try to be someone else．You can be jealous of other people．You call go off course and not be true to yourself．You may also see yourself finishing in last．You can be like the second run and be true to yourself．God gives us all so many special and unique gifts，something that makes you who you are．When you realize what you can offer and use them for good，you will see the fruits of your labor．The third run is the true reality of life．Sometimes you can go into a situation or relationship with a11 of the best intentions in the world．Sometimes you can be the best“you”possible，but something will still go wrong．That is life．However，just like those four Jamaicans who crashed the sled，you can get up and finish the race．Always finish the race．28．What is Cool Runnings based on?A．A short story with the same name．B．A true happening in an Olympic competition．C．A match in the 1988 Summer Olympic Games．D．A journal of a famous Jamaican Bobsled player．29．Which of the following can replace the underlined phrase“pep talks”in Paragraph 2?A．Annoying words．B．Satisfying lectures．C．Encouraging remarks．D．Disappointing reports．30．What made the Jamaican Bobsled move into 8 th place in the second run? A．Depending on good luck．B．Following others’example．C．Attaching value to team work．D．Making the most of their talents．31．In what way is the third run true to real life?A．Still waters run deep．B．Every coin has two sides．C．Life is not a bed of roses．D．Two heads are better than one．D“If you just go in and say，‘Let’s lower your carbon footprint’，it's a nonstarter，”Slater says．“You have to go in with other motivators．”She says people are looking for social connection．meaning，purpose，safety and effectiveness．Slater is director of the Cool City，Challenge，a consulting and training organization that aims to reduce the carbon footprint of cities．The group also runs Cool Block，an initiative that helps neighbors connect with each other，share resources，and team up on climate and post-disaster reconstruction projects．A Cool Block project starts with the simple act of someone paying personal visits to his or her neighbors．“We say this is the most revolutionary ever designed knock on your neighbor’s door，and get involved with them in a family way，”says Slater，explaining that in most cases，people are glad they’ve been asked to participate．“People are afraid of rejection，that they’11 be seen as pushy or that they always want something．We talk about these things openly because these are all beliefs people have that stop them from doing it．”In addition to creating a critical mass of awareness about climate and disaster solutions，Cool Block creates local networks that go beyond disaster planning and carbon reduction．“All of a sudden the participants are excited and they’re doing things，”Slater says．One group wanted a speed bump(减速带)，another identified two elderly people and decided toconnect with them—not only in case of a disaster，but to have the occasional cup of tea．When a power failure fried all the appliances(电器)on its block，one group organized to get discounts at the appliance store and take charge of the process of replacing the appliances．Groups set up informal sharing systems by creating a document of goods and tools that are available．“There are always ways to deepen your practice．”Slater says．32．What is Cool City Challenge set up for?A．To share resources．B．To keep people safe．C．To help neighbors connect．D．To protect the environment．33．What is the vital act of a Cool Block project?A．Reaching out to their neighbors．B．Overcoming the fear of being refused．C．Encouraging neighbors to speak openly．D．Changing the old beliefs of the neighbors．34．How did Cool Block help neighbors in the power failure?A．By connecting the elderly．B．By building a speed bump．C．By creating a document of goods and tools．D．By getting appliances and service with less money．35．What may be the best title for the text?A．Lower your carbon footprint!B．Be an environmentalist like Slater!C．Cool Block：Have neighbors talk!D．Social connection：Just knock on doors!第二节(共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分)根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，选项中有两项为多余选项。

ATo improve a high schooler's chance of getting into a top university, the summer programs allow young students to explore fields of interest and get a taste of college life.Telluride Association Summer Program (TASP)TASP is a six-week program allowing high school freshman from around the world to grow their sense of interpersonal awareness and community responsibility. It's completely free, including the cost of tuition, books and even travel.Minority Introduction to Engineering and Science (MITES)This week-long program aimed at all US high school students can help them develop the skills necessary for future job in engineering while learning about the value and reward of acquiring advanced technical degrees. MITES is free—the only expense is the transportation to and from MIT.高三英语第1页（共10页）Clark Scholar Program (CSP) hands-on research experience in mathematics field while working one on one with teaching staff over four intense weeks. Everything is free for chosen applicants except their meals. JCampThe seven-week one brings high school freshman and sophomores from various backgrounds together for participating in sessions and workshops led by notable journalists where students can get hands-on training in journalism. JCamp is free if selected—participants only need to pay for the board.1.What can be expected of MITES?A.It is accessible to worldwide students.B.It lays a foundation for career prospect.C.It makes no extra charge for transportation.D.It awards students advanced technical degrees.2.Which program is suitable for a UK high schooler with up to 5 spare weeks?A.TASP.B. MITES.C. CSP.D. JCamp.3.What is the shared goal of the programs?A.To seek for one-on-one instruction.B.To develop a sense of social duty.C.To get participants better prepared for college.D.To advertise some majors of the top universities.BA new study, published this week in the journal Frontiers in Veterinary Science, reveals that non-human animals' tears are not so different from our own. The chemical similarities are so great ,in fact, that the composition of other species' tears—and how they're adapted to their environments一may provide insights into better treatments for human eye disease.Previously, scientists had studied closely only the tears of a handful of mammals, including humans, dogs, horses, camels, and monkeys. In the new study, Brazilian veterinarians analyzed 高三英语第2页(共10页)the tears of reptiles and birds for the first time,focusing on seven species.Tears,which are released from tear tubes,form a film over the eye that's composed of three ingredients: mucus, water, and oil. The mucus coats the eye's surface and helps to attach the film to the eye, the water is a natural salty solution containing crucial proteins and minerals, and the oil prevents the eye from drying out.Humans are the only known species to produce emotional tears; the expression M crocodile tears，'‘ which refers to a person's phony display of emotion, comes from the mysterious tendency of crocodiles to release tears as they eat.But tears play key roles beyond weeping, notes Lionel Sebbag at Iowa State University, who was not involved in the new research. They help with vision by lubricating （润滑）and clearing the eye. They also protect the eye against infection and provide nutrition to the cornea（角膜）, the eye4 5 6 7 8s clear outer layer,which lacks blood tubes,he says.Learning how reptiles and birds9 use tears may also inspire new medications for conditions such as dry eye,which occurs when tear tubes don't produce enough oil. The disease,common in cats, dogs, and people, can sometimes lead to blindness.The Pomodoro technique is probably one of the most powerful techniques in all of learning. All you have to do is set a timer for 25 minutes, and then just fbcus as attentively as you can for those 25 minutes.Now if you start focusing on and you're working on, and then you look up at the timer and two minutes have passed. You may feel like you can't hold on. And just let the thought go by, and return your4 What is paragraph 3 mainly about?A.The source of tears.B. The composition of tears.C. The classification of tears.D. The definition of tears.5 What does the underlined word "phony" in paragraph 4 mean?A.Tricky.B. Regretful.C. Cold.D. False.6 Which statement does Lionel Sebbag agree with?A.Weeping contributes to eye disease.B. The cornea has rich blood tubes.C. Tears oil and clear the eyes.D. More tears mean better vision.7 What might be the best title for the text?A.Tears, a barrier to eyesB.A better treatment for eye diseaseC.Non-human tears promise new cures focus to whatever you are working on. And when that 25 minutes is up you relax a little bit. You might wonder why that 25 minutes is the magic number, and the reality is we don't really know. There's not a lot of research on the Pomodoro technique, which is surprising because it's so incredibly popular and people find it very useful.But there's an interesting tidbit （/|、趣闻）related to the Pomodoro technique, and that is that：when you just think about something that you don't like very much,it stimulates a part of the brain that experiences pain. And so the brain naturally enough shifts its attention to something else,like Facebook or Twitter or something like that.And what the Pomodoro technique does, when you do it you're setting that timer. You don't want to sit there and think，'‘ Fm going to work on this problem and get it all finished. " You just want to think,M Tve got 25 minutes where I just have to work on something.
