I spent three busy days in the Italian capital, seeing lots of tourist attractions and walking down streets lit with Christmas decorations. Here are the things that I loved most about the city.Rome is one of the most ancient cities in the world and is full of wonderful relics from its distant past. These monuments include the Roman Forum and the vast Coliseum where gladiators used to fight each other until death and hunt exotic animals. The ruins of buildings and temples are fascinating: you can’t quite believe how old they are.I studied the masterpieces of the Renaissance period at university and was very excited to see them in real life. We walked around the museum in Vatican City and saw plenty of famous sculptures. The best part of the visit was, without a doubt, the Sistine Chapel ceiling, painted in the early 16th century by the great Michelangelo. It was so breathtaking that I couldn’t tear my eyes away from it.In Rome, there is a lot of food on offer for tourists but some of it isn’t very good quality. I made an effort to find authentic restaurants to taste the popular meals of the region, like pasta with tomato, onion and bacon. I also loved eating ice cream and hot chocolate under the Christmas lights.Rome has lots of luxury boutiques but also plenty of shops that were more in my price range! It was a perfect opportunity to go and buy presents for my family and friends. There was also a Christmas market, where I bought a sparkly decoration for the tree.I love seeing new places, especially capital cities. I have been very lucky this year because I also visited Amsterdam and New York in the summer. Hopefully I’ll get to travel even more in the future. I would love to see Prague, Budapest and explore other places outside of Europe. Where do you think I should go next?56. The underlined word “gladiators” in the 2nd paragraph probably means “________”.A. athletesB. butchersC. invadersD. fighters57. The author found the ruins of buildings and temples fascinating because ________.A. they represent Rome’s religionB. they are relics from Rome’s distant pastC they are modern and fashion D. they include exotic animals58. What is mainly discussed in the 3rd paragraph?A. The history of Vatican City.B. The life story of Michelangelo.C. The art-related activities during the visit.D. The literature of the Renaissance period.59.

Today, most records of biodiversity are often in the form of photos, videos, and other digital records. Though they are useful for detecting shifts in the number and variety of species in an area, a new Stanford study has found that this type of record is not perfect.“With the rise of technology it is easy for people to make observations of different species with the aid of a mobile application,” said Barnabas Daru, who is lead author of the study and assistant professor of biology in the Stanford School of Humanities and Sciences. “These observations now outnumber the primary data that comes from physical specimens (标本), and since we are increasingly using observational data to investigate how species are responding to global change, I wanted to know: Are they usable?”Using a global dataset of 1.9 billion records of plants, insects, birds, and animals, Daru and his team tested howwell these data represent actual global biodiversity patterns.“We were particularly interested in exploring the aspects of sampling that tend to bias (使有偏差) data, like the greater likelihood of a citizen scientist to take a picture of a flowering plant instead of the grass right next to it,” said Daru.Their study revealed that the large number of observation-only records did not lead to better global coverage. Moreover, these data are biased and favor certain regions, time periods, and species. This makes sense because the people who get observational biodiversity data on mobile devices are often citizen scientists recording their encounters with species in areas nearby. These data are also biased toward certain species with attractive or eye-catching features.What can we do with the imperfect datasets of biodiversity?“Quite a lot,” Daru explained. “Biodiversity apps can use our study results to inform users of oversampled areas and lead them to places—and even species—that are not well-sampled. To improve the quality of observational data, biodiversity apps can also encourage users to have an expert confirm the identification of their uploaded image.”63. What do we know about the records of species collected now?A. They are becoming outdated.B. They are mostly in electronic form.C. They are limited in number.D. They are used for public exhibition.64. What does Daru’s study focus on?A. Threatened species.B. Physical specimens.C. Observational data.D. Mobile applications.65. What has led to the biases according to the study?A. Mistakes in data analysis.B. Poor quality of uploaded pictures.C. Improper way of sampling.D. Unreliable data collection devices.66. What is Daru’s suggestion for biodiversity apps?A. Review data from certain areas.B. Hire experts to check the records.C. Confirm the identity of the users.D. Give guidance to citizen scientists.Section CDirections: Read the following passage. Fill in each blank with a proper sentence given in the box. Each sentence can be used only once. Note that there are two more sentences than you need.A. The streets and buildings may stay the same, but the people they meet change.B. They seek pleasure more through connection than consumption, which signifies a deep cultural curiosity.C. City walkers may be tourists from afar or migrant workers and locals.D. However, the tourist industry may misuse it as a profitable symbol and decrease its creativity and uniqueness.E. However, don’t do it just because it’s good for you, do it because it’s fun.F. City walks are becoming increasingly accepted and acknowledged by more and more people.Trending City Walks Bring People Closer to Real Vibe of LifeRecently, the “city walk” trend has been gaining steam among residents and tourists around China. On trend bible Xiaohongshu, data shows that the number of city walk-related topic posts has increased by 700 percent over the past three months, and the total number of interactions has increased by more than 600 percent.A city walk is a form of urban tourism originating in the UK. It referred to guided tours where participants followed a planned route under the guidance of tour guides, with a strong emphasis on delving deep into the city’s history, culture and landscapes among other aspects.(67) ________ For the former, by participating in a city walk, they can gain insight into the city’s history, culture, and style, which allows them to connect personally with the city and experience its bustling life. For the latter two, they may spend weekends gaining a deeper understanding of their place of residence, reconnecting with that which they are familiar. Seasoned city walkers share their recommended routes and snack spots on social media and quickly rack up thousands of fans. Districts and streets with a great historical or cultural atmosphere in major cities such as Beijing, Shanghai and Chengdu have become popular city walk routes.The appeal of a city walk lies in three aspects.First, the young generation gradually changes their attitude toward life, pursuing quality leisure time while being occupied with demanding workloads and limited time for exploration. (68) ________ They may not witness the beautiful views they would in the countryside, but they do get an endless procession of exciting faces.Second, walking regularly is good for mental and physical health. Research shows that it significantly lowers your chances of developing vascular dementia, boosting your immune system and making for a healthier heart. While strolling along the road, you can entirely focus on yourself and listen to your inner voice and care for what you feel, which is a way to love yourself and benefit your psychological. well-being. Oscar Wilde once said, “To love oneself is the beginning of a lifelong romance.” (69) ________Last, city walkers are a cast of people who possess intense curiosity. They are keen to connect with the city in which they are stopping or reside in their own way. By “roaming” on foot, city walkers are better able to feel the texture and listen to the breath of a place. (70) ________ For example, in Southwest China’s Chongqing Municipality, if you don’t take a walk, you can hardly experience the unique geographical charm of the mountainous city. Be it the hutong in Beijing or the Chinese parasol tree district in Shanghai, city walks allow people to see the scenery apart from the scene and uncover hidden knowledge.IV. Translation (10%)Directions: Translate the following sentences into English, using the word given in the brackets.71. 当我走的时候，我朝冰淇淋店老板指了指手腕，又耸了耸肩。

AHere are some pet-friendly universities in the UK and US.University of IllinoisStudents are allowed up to two pets in each apartment, as well as a fish tank of no more than 50 gallons.To keep a pet, you will need to get approval from the Family & Graduate housing department at the University of Illinois. You will have to provide proof that your pet is up to date with its vaccinations(疫苗), and pay a monthly US$30 pet fee, which is non-refundable(不可退款的).Your pet can’t be left for extended periods of time, and if there’s evidence that you’ve left it alone due to vacation or illness, the university may remove it.Harvard UniversityWith as many as 12 pet-friendly apartments, Harvard is a very pet-friendly university. It allows students to have fish in a tank of no more than 50 gallons, except for Harvard’s Cronkhite Graduate Center.In Harvard’s pet-friendly apartments, you’re allowed: one cat or one dog, which can’t be over 40 pounds when fully grown. At most, two pet birds.University of British Columbia Students can take advantage of the university’s B．A．R. K program, which uses the calming power of therapy dogs to help them.B．A．R. K started at the University of British Columbia, after an assistant professor called Dr. John-Tyler Binfet noticed that he couldn’t walk across campus without students running over to play with his dog, Frances. The students told him they were homesick and missed their pets, which encouraged Binfet to establish B．A．R. K as a way of fighting their loneliness.University of OxfordThe University of Oxford is famous for its resident pets, who happily wander around college grounds. Many Oxford colleges have their own tortoise and take part in the annual Corpus Christi tortoise race.Although you are not allowed to keep your own pet as a student, several Oxford colleges hold dog petting and walking therapy sessions.1．What is one of the rules for keeping pets at the University of Illinois?A．Pet keepers should pay a monthly US$ 30 pet fee which will be returned.B．Pets can’t be left alone in the apartments due to vacation or illness.C．Students have to keep fish in a fish tank of no more than 20 gallons.D．The cat or dog can’t be over 40 pounds when fully grown.2．Why did Dr. John-Tyler Binfet start B．A．R.

B．University of Oxford.C．University of Illinois. D．University of British Columbia.BA survey by the American Psychological Association shows that one in ten adults reads online news at least once an hour. A lot has been written about the mental health influence from news addiction, and in particular from reading negative reports. Just like junk food, “junk” news can be bad for our health.In recent years, things have been getting increasingly more negative. A study of the content of New Zealand’s largest newspaper showed that while in 1973 the average number of stories about death on the front page was 0.75, by 2013 it was 4.1(and no, there weren’t five times more people dying).What’s more, online news, and the stories we read on mobile phones in particular, tend to be even more negative than print. A 2019 study of 50 U.S. newspapers showed that mobile versions of newspapers report three times more stories about disasters and accidents than paper ones.Such negative reports lead people to believe that things are worse than they really are. They can lead to stress, worry and lower spirits.Experiments also suggest that loneliness and poor relationships have been connected with reading negative reports. After reading negative reports, people are less likely to help others. Even worse, when we check news on smart phones, we may “phub” our loved ones, which leads to lower relationship satisfaction.Negative reports attract our attention far more than positive ones. That’s a global happening. I hope, however, that if we realize that negative news is spoiling our moods, we might all be more willing to change. 4．Why is “junk food” mentioned in the first paragraph?A．To entertain readers.B．To introduce the topic.C．To make an advertisement.D．To keep readers away from it.5．What can we learn about the study in Paragraph 2?A．The death rate in New Zealand is very high.B．Print newspapers have become less popular.C．Stories about death have become less popular.D．Negative reporting has been increasing over years. 6．What may negative reports lead people to do?A．Live a hopeful life.B．Become more careful.C．Become less likely to help others.D．Pay more attention to their physical health.7．What does the underlined word “phub” in Paragraph 5 mean?A．Ignore B．Hate C．Laugh at D．Care about8．Which of the following can be the best title for the text?A．A Survey on News Reading Habits B．Negative Effects of Mobile PhonesC．Is Online News Better Than Print?D．Is Junk News a Danger to Health?CThere was once a boy called Mario who loved to have lots of friends at school. However, he wasn’t sure whether or not his classmates were his true friends, so he asked his grandpa. The old man answered, “I have just exactly what you need; it’s in the attic (阁楼). Wait here for a minute.”Grandpa left, soon returning as though carrying something in his hand, but Mario could see nothing there. “Take it. It’s a very special chair. Because it’s invisible (无形的) it’s rather difficult to sit on, but if you take it to school and you manage to sit on it, you’ll be able to tell who your true friends are.”Mario took the strange invisible chair and went to school. At break time he asked everyone to form a circle, and he put himself in the middle, with his chair. “Nobody move. You’re about to see something amazing,” Mario said.Then Mario tried sitting on the chair. He missed and fell straight onto his backside. Everyone had a pretty good laugh. Mario wouldn’t be beaten. He kept trying to sit on the magic chair, and kept falling to theground... until, suddenly, he tried again and didn’t fall. This time he sat, hovering (悬停) in mid-air.Looking around, Mario saw George, Lucas, and Diana — three of his best friends — holding him up, so he wouldn’t fall. At the same time, many others he had thought of as friends were doing nothing but make fun of him, enjoying each and every fall.Leaving with his three friends, Mario explained to them how his grandpa had so cleverly thought of such a good idea. Now he knows that those who take joy in our misfortunes (不幸) when we are in difficulty are not our true friends.9．What did Mario’s grandpa take from the attic?A．An invisible chair.B．An old chair.C．A real chair.D．Nothing.10．Why did Mario’s grandpa give him the invisible chair?A．To see whether Mario could sit on it. B．To test who were Mario’s true friends.C．To let Mario have fun with his classmates.D．To test whether Mario was popular at school. 11．How was Mario able to hover in mid-air?A．He saw the invisible chair suddenly. B．He managed to sit on the chair finally.C．His friends held him up with their hands. D．His classmates gave him a chair to sit on.12．What does the story tell us?A．Never laugh at our friends. B．True friends can help us do magic.C．True friends are those who care for us. D．Having too many good friends isn’t a good thing.DSure, it’s good to get along well with your teacher because it makes the time you spend in the classroom more pleasant.And yes, it’s good to get along well with your teacher because, in general, it’s smart to learn how to get along well with the different types of people you’ll meet throughout your life.In fact, kids who get along well with their teachers not only learn more, but they’re more comfortable with asking questions and getting extra help. This makes it easier for them to understand new materials and makes them do their best on tests. When you have this kind of relationship with a teacher, he or she can be someone to turn to with problems, such as problems with learning or school issues (问题).Here is a question：What if you don’t get along with your teachers? In fact, teachers want to get along well with you and enjoy seeing you learn. But teachers and students sometimes have personality clashes (个性冲突), which can happen between any two people. If you show your teacher that you want to make the situation better, he or she will probably do everything possible to make that happen.

Sam was a motherless boy who lived with his father Curtis. To Sam, his father was his hero and the only soul with whom he felt 1 and connected in the world. Though uneducated and poor, Curtis recognized and cultivated his son’s 2 in words like it was the most important thing in the world. He would take Sam to the public library every day.When fate suddenly took Curtis away from Sam, the kid became homeless and withdrawn from everyone and everything. He even couldn’t read a single page without 3 at every sentence. So he turned to writing instead. And within two months, the boy used up six notebooks to write his thoughts in notes and poetry.One day, Mr. Murray, a father of two boys, 4 Sam sitting outside a cafe, gripping his stomach in hunger, tears streaming down his face. He took Sam home, 5 him, and tucked him up in bed. Then he looked through Sam’s bag, hoping to find some number he could call. Instead, he found Sam’s diary. He read through page after page of what the 11-year-old had been going through, trying to cry in 6 .When Sam woke up, he found his books 7 arranged on a shelf, his clothes put away in a laundry bag, and the picture of his father put in a beautiful frame and placed on the study table. “This is your home. You can have all the books you want. I will drive you to and from school every day with my boys. Nothing will stop you from pursuing your dreams,” Mr. Murray said, accepting Sam’s 8 hug.From that day on, Sam’s life was never the same. Reading and writing never got apart from him. He became outgoing and 9 a confident personality. With the love and support of Mr. Murray, he followed his heart and studied 10 in university.

In late September or early October, falling fruits as hard as baseballs threaten the skulls (头骨) of you, your children, your neighbors and those that reside next door to them. Umbrellas in the yard are a must while dining in early August, and as for me, I wear my bike helmet while working in the garden.The black walnut also releases a chemical substance through its roots as a competitive strategy. It’s poisonous to several common plants. There have been many new plant varieties tha t I brought home with hopes that maybe the black walnut would accept them, but they failed toflourish.What does work are native plants that naturally grow in the area. Native plants are important to have around since they provide beneficial pollinators (传粉者) like birds, bees and butterflies with seeds and contribute to a healthy and biodiverse environment. Native plants for this area are generally easy to grow, so they experience less stress.Have I thought of getting rid of this giant pain in my tiny backyard? Yes, however, getting rid of this tree standing at 50 feet with an 87-inch trunk is next to impossible. It’s also protected under the law. Rightfully so. Trees are important to the urban forest and for all of those that inhabit it.Sometimes I think about my life without the black walnut. I can’t imagine a spring without the birds who arrive every year and loudly sing their songs before dawn. I’d miss falling asleep on lazy weekend afternoons as I look up into its leaves.Every spring, I wonder what the season holds: What are the chances of being knocked unconscious while barbecuing? Like any good relationship, I’ll never be pleased. I’m stuck with this tree, so I’ll listen to its needs and give it the space it requires. In return, my walnut offers a habitat for wildlife and a reminder.19．Why does the author wear a bike helmet while working in the garden?A. To protect the injured skull.B. To prevent herself from sunburn.C. To avoid being hit by the nuts.D. To reduce the chance of getting bitten by bees.20．What is the tree’s survival strategy?A. It attracts beneficial pollinators.B. It lets out poison to drive away pests.C. It produces a chemical fatal to some plants.D. It competes for nutrition with similar species.21．Which of the following DOESN’T account for the author’s love-hate relationship with the tree?A. The volume of its fruits may bring inconvenience.B. The tree outcompetes the native plants in the garden.C. The tree is home to numerous birds and other creatures.D. The presence of the tree takes up much space of the garden.22．The author most probably got a reminder from the tree that ________.A. it’s better to give than to takeB. trees and plants have their own ways to flourishC. even a good relationship is not always trouble-freeD. acceptance, instead of resistance, is the better way to beCIt was raining like nothing before when Ehdaa Bujeldain, an English teacher living with her family in the mountains of Derna in eastern Libya , heard a loud noise that sounded like an explosion (爆炸). Later they learned that a dam (大坝) in Derna had broken down under the pressure of running water. For the next four days, they had no power or internet, and it was only recently that they started to fully understand of the damage caused by the floods.“Half of the city has been destroyed. My mom’s relatives, my friends, my coworkers ——they are all gone. Now we, the survivors, are just ghost s in shells,” says Bujeldain, whose sadness can be easily told from her blank expression.Five days have passed since the terrible flooding in Derna, Libya’s Red Crescent organization estimated that 11,300 people have died, while the city’s mayor believes the number of deaths could be as high as 20,000.Derna is a coastal city with a seasonal river called the Wadi Derna. Despite the abnormally heavy rain, people living near the river had little warning before the floodwaters came rushing in on that terrible morning. United Nations aid chief Martin Griffiths described the scale of the flood as “appalling” (令人惊骇的) and blamed the flood partly on sudden climate change.Now international aid teams are arriving in Derna, but they face challenges due to damaged roads, lack of access to power, water, and fuel. Tarhoni, doctor of the rescue team, warns that the most difficult weeks lie ahead. “One disaster is done and there is another to come,” he says. “The thousands and thousands of people who lost everything these people now need comfort, they need company, t hey need psychological support.”23．What do we know about Bujeldain’s family from paragraph 1?A. The explosion they heard led to the destruction of the dam.B. Bujeldain saved her family from the floods with her bravery.C. Bujeldain immediately recognized the outbreak of the floods.D. For several days, they didn’t fully realize the seriousness of the floods.24．What does Bujeldain mean by saying they are “just ghosts in shells” in paragraph 2?A. They run out of energy and are very tired.B. They feel lucky as they are safe and sound.C. They are completely saddened and shocked.D. They are sorry for the loss of their homeland.25．According to the passage, which of the following does NOT contribute to the loss of lives?A. The absence of warning.B. The extraordinary rainfall.C. Unexpected climate change.D. The damage to environment.26．What might be the main focus of international aid efforts in Derna?A. Addressing mental problems.B. Providing immediate medical care.C. Conducting climate change research.D. Rebuilding roads and access to resources.DBy the end of the century, if not sooner, the world’s oceans will be bluer and greener thanks to a warming climate, according to a new study.At the heart of the phenomenon lie tiny microorganisms (微生物) in the ocean called phytoplankton. Because of the way light reflects off the organisms, these phytoplankton create colorful patterns at the ocean surface. Ocean color varies from green to blue, depending on the type and concentration of phytoplankton. Climate change will fuel the growth of phytoplankton in some areas, while reducing it in other spots, leading to changes in the ocean’s appearance.Phytoplankton live at the ocean surface, where they pull carbon dioxide into the ocean while giving off oxygen. When these organisms die, they bury carbon in the deep ocean, an important process that helps to regulate (调控) the global climate. But phytoplankton are vulnerable to the ocean’s warming trend. Warming changes key characteristics of the ocean and can affect phytoplankton growth, since they need not only sunlight and carbon dioxide to grow, but also nutrients.Stephanie Dutkiewicz, a scientist in MIT’s Center for Global Change Science, built a climate model that projects changes to the oceans throughout the century. In a world that warms up by 3C, it found that multiple changes to the color of the oceans would occur. The model projectsthat currently blue areas with little phytoplankton could become even bluer. But in some waters, such as those of the Arctic, a warming will make conditions more suitable for phytoplankton, and these areas will turn greener. “Not only are the quantities of phytoplankton in the ocean changing.” she said, “but the type of phytoplankton is changing.”And why does that matter? Phytoplankton are the base of the food web. If certain kinds begin to disappear from the ocean, Dutkiewicz said, “it will change the type of fish that will be able to live on.” Those kinds of changes could affect the food chain.Whatever color changes the ocean experiences in the coming future will probably be too gradual and unnoticeable, but they could mean significant changes. “It’ll be a while before we can statistically show that the changes are happe ning because of climate change,” Dutkiewicz said, “but the change in the color of the ocean will be one of the early warning signals that we really have changed our planet.”27．What are the first two paragraphs mainly about?A. The cause of the changes in ocean color.B. The various patterns at the ocean surface.C. The way light reflects off marine organisms.D. The efforts to fuel the growth of phytoplankton.28．What does the underlined word “vulnerable” in Paragraph 3 probably mean?A. beneficialB. sensitiveC. significantD. unnoticeable 29．What can we learn from the passage?A. Dutkiewicz’s model aims to project phytoplankton changes.B. Phytoplankton have been used to control global climate.C. Phytoplankton play a declining role in the ecosystem.D. Oceans with more phytoplankton may appear greener.30．What is the main purpose of the passage?A. To explain the effects of climate change on oceans.B. To assess the consequences of ocean color changes.C. To introduce a new method to study phytoplankton.D. To analyze the organization of the ocean food chain.The Chubby Diaries creator is part of a community of larger-bodied travelers who are showing the world that they can do anything. Following them helps because you can be like, “Oh, this place works with larger bodies.” 31 .Second plane seats and belt extendersSouthwest is one of the few airlines to offer plus-size passengers a free second seat. To ensure the extra space, Southwest recommends booking both seats beforehand, then making a request to get your money back. 32 Southwest states: “The armrest is t he definitive gauge (测量仪) for a customer of size. If you’re unable to lower both armrests, you need a second seat.” Even if your frame fits between the lowered arms, you may still need a seat-belt extender.33 .Finding size nclusive tripsFor Natalie Robinson, ziplining (压缩) in Costa Rica determined her bucket list. “Literally for the last 10 years, that’s all I talked about,” said the co-owner of Fat Girls Travel. 34 . Her fortunes changed completely on an August trip to Costa Rica, when a friend found an outfitter without weight restrictions. The guide said Robinson could dash through the rainforest as long as she could reach the starting point high in the tree tops.35When researching a trip, ask about weight restrictions as well as the availability of equipment that can accommodate your size. If you have concerns, bring your own equipment. Plus-size travelers emphasize the importance of being self-sufficient. Finding special clothes and equipment can be challenging in unfamiliar destinations.A. Pack your own equipmentB. Find supportive travel groups and tripsC. Their extra efforts are paying off as they discover how to travel comfortably andconfidentlyD. Ziplining provides much convenience for those fat girlsE. Many airlines use the armrests to determine whether a passenger requires more spaceF. Air-lines provide this extra piece of equipment free, and you can request it at the time ofboardingG. But ziplining generally has a weight limit, so she hadn’t been able to do itYou might say I found marathoning, step by step. Or perhaps it found me. I was 36 an athlete growing up. In fact, I have a hard time 37 that term to myself even today.It started when I joined a group of women in my neighborhood for a daily three-mile walk. At first it was 38 . But soon, my body adjusted and I wanted 39 . Before long, I was running 5 miles. Then I set a goal to run a half marathon. And I did complete the Covered Bridges Half Marathon. I thought, “Now what?” I started to 40 a marathon.It so happened that I 41 a meeting one night and listened to the speaker and coach, Rick Muhr, and was so 42 by his words. I told him that I had signed up for the Ocean State Marathon, just a week away, and that I really didn’t believe I could 43 . Rick locked eyes with me and said, “Trish, you’ve done enough training. You’ll finish!”I never had someone 44 me like that, let alone a real, live coach. He gave me the45 I needed. I set out to run my 46 marathon and completed it in 4:25:00. Little did I know that this would be the beginning of nearly a decade of marathon and distance running. Running a marathon isn’t for everybody. But it is for anybody, anybody who wants to47 the unreachable and to take that 48 into the rest of their life. When you cross the finish line you may never have a 49 picture of what you are made of and capable of accomplishing.

Some historians link the use of the term to boxes of donations that were laid in churchesduring the pre-Christmas season of Advent in the early days of Christianity during the second and third centuries A. D. The day after Christmas, the boxes were opened and the money was given away to the poor.Another possible story for Boxing Day has to do with a tradition that formed in 19th century Victorian England, where servants sacrificed (牺牲) time with their own families to cater to their employers on Christmas. On the day after Christmas, employers would give the servants a rare day off and send them home with leftovers from the family's Christmas feast for their service.Though the reasons are lost to history, Boxing Day charity eventually fell out of tradition—and was replaced with physical and material pleasures. Today, the holiday is linked with sports, with major football rugby, and cricket matches and horse races taking place on December 26.December 26 is also a big shopping day throughout the UK and the Commonwealth. The holiday kicks off what is known as " Boxing Week" , during which retailers (零售商) try to move old stock and shoppers compete for one last bargain of the year. In recent years, though, the American tradition of Black Friday—massive sales that take place the day after Thanksgiving each November—has become popular in the United Kingdom and has largely overshadowed Boxing Week.8、What kind of festival was Boxing Day probably in the beginning?A. A charitable festival.B. A religious festival.C. A sports festival.D. A business festival.9、What does the underlined part "cater to" in paragraph 4 probably mean?A. Take care of.B. Depend on.C. Put up with.D. Pick up.10、How is Boxing Week going in the United Kingdom recently?A. It has become an online shopping day.B. It has been replaced by Black Friday.C. It only covers popular sports events.D. It has become less popular than before.11、What is the best title for the text?A. When Did Boxing Day Come into Being?B. Why Did People Celebrate Boxing Day?C. How Is Black Friday Celebrated in the UK?D. Why Is Black Friday Popular in the UK?Migraine is a disease that has a number of symptoms (症状), including head pain that can stick around from four hours to several days. While migraines can happen partly because of genetic (基因的) problems, attacks may happen by chance, set off by a cause in the environment.One common cause is food, and some common dietary causes include alcohol, salt, sugar, chocolate, and caffeine. But there are many others, and scientists continue to identify more. Last year, for example, a Brazilian study found that watermelons brought on a headache within minutes in about 30 percent of the participants.Some new researches are looking at which foods and what kinds of diets can prevent or lessen migraines. A new study published last year by a team of researchers found that a diet higher in fish oils rather than vegetable oils helped people ease their headaches. In the study, those on a diet lower in vegetable oil and higher in fatty fish had a 30 to 40 percent reduction in total headache hours per day, serious headache hours per day, and overall headache days per month compared to the control group.Tanya Kamka had suffered weekly migraines for most of her life. Then, in her 50s, she joined the NIH diet experiment and increased her intake of fish. After only a few months, “I haven’t had a migraine, not even a mild one, in over two years.” she says.For others, the solution comes from plants, not fish. A 60-year-old man joined a study on the food-migraine link and turned to a diet, which includes a lot of dark, leafy greens. After two months he was experiencing only one migraine a month instead of the 18 to 24 a month he’d suffered before.Clearly, people with migraines react to food in very different ways. What works for one person may not work for another.12、What do we know about migraine from paragraph 1?A. It is related to sleep time.B. It never runs in the family.C. It lasts for at least three hours.D. It can be caused by the environment.13、What is paragraph 2 mainly about?A. The length of migraine.B. Foods that lead to migraine.C. The most common cause of migraine.D. A Brazilian study about migraine.14、What can lessen migraines according to a new study published last year?A. Fish oils.B. Vegetable oils.C. All kinds of fat.D. Various Vegetables.15、Which is the author’s opinion about the effect of food on migraines?A. It varies from person to person.B. It can only stay for a short time.C. It depends on the age of a patient.D. It is connected to how much one takes.二、七选五16、Tips on How to Study SmarterHaving good study skills is always helpful. And it’s more important in the present situation, where online classes are growing. Students are likely to learn without a teacher or parent watching over. ① Here are some tips to develop good study skills.·Practice, practice, practice! Musicians, practice their instruments. Athletes practice sports skills. The same should go for learning. ② In one study, students took practice tests over several weeks. On the final test, they scored better than those who studied in the normal way.· Test yourself. Before big tests, you may often cover up the notes, and then try to recall them. This practice can help nearly everyone. You can put questions down on one side of the paper and the answers on the other side. ③ Teachers often dig deeper. They don’t just ask shallow questions.Learn from mistakes. A secret of science: Mistakes help understanding. If you don’t find out what the answer is, you’re wasting your time. Checking the answers can make your study time more efficient. Check to see if you are right. You can then focus on what you get wrong. ④⑤Students know some good study skills, yet many of you don’t actually do these things. Often you fail to plan ahead. So do make plans. And try to stick to a routine, too. For example, you can have a set time and place where you do schoolwork and study. And get enough sleep—not just the night before the test but for weeks or months on end.A. Focus on your plan.B. You can add more skills.C. Make a plan and stick to it.D. In fact, mistakes are actually a primary key to learning.E. Try to test yourself in the way the teacher asks questions.F. So you will have to manage your time and study more on your own.G. If you want to be able to remember information, the best thing you can do is practice.三、完形填空（15空）The Mid-Autumn Day is a happy time for a family reunion (团聚).

ARecently a growing number of foreign universities, such as the University of Cambridge, are accepting China's gaokao results as one of their admission standards(录取标准).Is the Chinese college entrance exam being recognized globally? Four readers share their opinions:Cecilia Zhang(China)The gaokao is a really difficult exam. If possible, it can be used as one of the indicators( 指标) for foreign universities, in addition to other indicators, such as how well they speak the target language. The students, who perform well in the gaokao,also have the ability to successfully adapt to( 适应) Western styles of education. I believe accepting the gaokao as an indicator is a win-win for Chinese students and overseas universities.Wchao37(US)In fact,gaokao is perhaps much more difficult than the SAT or ACT exams. You can get a perfect score of 1600 on the SAT but not in the gaokao, partly because the SAT is a machine-scored multiple-choice exam. Do you know anyone that has ever achieved a perfect score in the gaokao?Harry01 (UK)Hundreds of students from China have entered universities in the UK I using their gaokao scores which requires that their knowledge of English be above a certain level. This measure has benefited specific groups of students from various background s in China.Mbursian(Canada)In order to attend a university in an English-speaking country,a student needs to have an acceptable band score on the IELTS.Most importantly, students need an acceptable knowledge of the language spoken in any country they plan to study in. Now the Chinese gaokao is closer to meeting the requirements of different countries.21. Who believes accepting the Chinese gaokao is a win-win?A. Cecilia ZhangB. Wchao37.C. Harry01.D. Mbursian.22. What is most important for Chinese students planning to study abroad?A. The IELTS score.B. Enough test preparation.C. The Chinese gaokao score.D. Knowledge of the native language.23. What does the text intend to tell the readers?A. The gaokao will replace other tests.B. The gaokao is becoming globally accepted.C. The gaokao is the most difficult of all tests.D. The University of Cambridge made a good decision.BThis was the first real task I received in my new school.It seemed simple:go on the Internet and find information about a man named George Washington. As I searched the name, I found that there were two famous people having the same name who looked completely different!One invented hundreds of uses for peanuts(花生), while the other led some sort of army across America. I stared at the screen, wondering which one my teacher meant. I called my grandfather for a golden piece of advice;let the coin decide.I flipped( 掷)a coin and Ah! Tails(背面)! My report would be about the great man who invented peanut butter, George Washington Carver.Weeks later,I stood in front of the classroom and proudly read my homework. But things started to get strange.I looked around the room,only to find my classmates with big smiles on their faces and tears in their eyes and my stone-faced teacher. I was completely lost.“What could be causing everyone to act this way?”Oh well,I dropped the paper and sat down at my desk, burning to find out what I had done wrong. As a classmate began his report,it all became clear, “My report is on George Washington, the man who started the American War of independence.”The whole world became quiet! How could I know that my teacher meant that George Washington?Of course,my subject result was awful. Sad but fearless,I decided to turn this around.I talked to the headmaster Miss Lancelot, but she said firmly: No re-dos; no new score. I felt that it was not fair,and I believed I should get a second chance. So I threw myself heartily into my work for the rest of the school year. Ten months later, I sat in the headmaster's office again, but this time a completely different conversation. I smiled and flashed back to the terrible moment at the beginning of the year as the headmaster told me I was good enough to skip(跳过) the 6th grade and started the 7th grade next term.24. The task I received was to find information about .A. uses for peanutsB. American War of IndependenceC. George WashingtonD. my headmaster Miss Lancelot25. People in the class acted strangely because .A. I was too proud of my homeworkB. I mistook what the homework was aboutC. the whole world suddenly became quietD. the teacher's face turned to a stone26. We can infer(推断) from the passage that .A. the headmaster didn't like the writer at allB. the writer's classmates felt sad at his mistakeC. the writer knew little about American historyD. the writer's grandpa was a very wise man27. Which of the following proverbs can best describe the main idea of this story?A. Seeing is believing.B. Where there is a will, there is a way.C. One is never too old to learn.D. A friend in need is a friend indeed.CA recent study suggests that when it comes to the benefits of reading, just doing it matters more than the content.Researchers have found that reading novels helps the brain development in understanding others and imagining the world. They also have found that people who spend a few hours per week reading books live longer than those who don't read.But how to build a habit of reading?Like any habit,the trick is in figuring out what suits you. The hardest part about reading is actually picking up a book. You have to sit down, pick up a book and start reading.“I always have a book next to wherever I put my phone,”My friend Jimmy once told me.“So if I want to check my phone,I physically can see the book there. Nine times out often, I end up reading the book instead of using my phone for nothing.”Another challenge is time,and in that case, audiobooks(有声书)can be a good choice. Audiobooks are great for filling the mind while you're on the way to work, washing dishes or working out at the gym.If you're still stuck on the way to developing a reading habit, the best way is to revisit your old favorite books to get your youthful reading pleasure. You should free yourself from the opinion that only important or educational books are worth reading. There's no-shame in rereading the books that made you fall in love with reading in the first place. Restarting the practice of reading is a little like picking up painting. It takes some work to get into the best state, but once you begin, the results are beautiful and satisfying.28. What is the most difficult part in forming the reading habit?A. Getting reading skills.B. Finding a great book.C. Having limited time.D. Getting reading started.29. What is the advantage of audiobooks according to the text?A. They are time saving.B. They provide more pleasure.C. They help brain development.D. They offer more book choices.30. Why is rereading old favourite books a good idea?A. It helps re start reading.B. It is of great convenienceC. It improves the taste for art.D. It can increase your patience.31. What can be the best title for the text?A. Method of killing free timeB. Advantages of using audiobooksC. Way to choose educational booksD. Tips on developing a reading habitDLast Friday,a special thing took place at the National Theater of Korea.A robot called EveR 6led an orchestra(管弦乐队)in a performance of Korean music. Robots have led orchestras in other countries, but this was the first time ever in Korea.EveR 6 is a robot built by the Korea Institute of Industrial Technology (KITECH).It's about as tall as a person,and has a human-like face that can show feelings. EveR 6 has joints(关节) in its neck, shoulders, etc. As a result, it can move its arms quickly in many different directions.But EveR 6 doesn't think on its own like some Artificial Intelligence programs. Instead, it has a limited groupof movements that it has been trained to perform.To make these movements as natural as possible, EveR6’s movements are learned from real human conductors.When EveR 6 moved its baton(指挥棒)for the first time,a piece of music rang out. Every movement of the robot's arms brought more instruments into the mix,and the orchestra's music grew louder and more exciting. Mr White, a human conductor,was impressed with the way EveR6moved.“The robot was able to present such difficult moves much better than I had imagined,”he said.But the robot still is not nearly ready to supersede human conductor.Mr White says the robot's greatest weakness is that it can't hear.“Some people think that conducting is just about hand waving and keeping the beat,” says Mr White. But a good conductor needs to listen to the orchestra, so that he or she can correct and encourage the orchestra as it plays.Mr White doesn't think robots are likely to replace human conductors. But he believes robots could be helpfulin situations like practice parts where the same thing needs to be done many times.32. What is paragraph 2 mainly about?A. The effect of EveR 6.B. The advantage of EveR 6.C. The importance of EveR 6.D. The basic information of EveR 6.33. What does the underlined word“supersede”in paragraph 5 mean?A. Look forward to.B. Show interest in.C. Take the place of.D. Make an impression on.34. Which of the following may Mr White agree with?A. Robots' role as a conductor will be overlooked.B. Robots could work in some fields of conductors' work.C. Robots are useless in practice parts of a conductor.D. Robots will replace human conductors.35. In which section of a newspaper may this text appear?A.Science.B. Sports.C. Health.D. Education.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。

This is because many countries have wonderful teams for the World Cup. The World Cup is held every four years.To remember 2002 FIFA World Cup, children from different countries and more than 60 children from Japanese school came together and spent three weekends drawing a big picture called “Dream World Cups” in Japan. The children drew animals, flowers and people playing soccer under a blue sky. They wished each football team good luck by drawing the flags of all the countries that will take part in the World Cup in Japan and South Korea. The picture was put up in a park near a playground in Yokohama. Some football teams will have games there.Are you a football fan? The World Cup makes more and more people interested in football. Teenagers like playing and watching football. Many of them love some football stars so much that they get the pictures of their favorite players on the walls of the rooms.
