Mom told Riley how to make a special gift.COkay to Eat?At least 50% of U.S.adults have eaten food off the floor.That's according to a 2017HarrisPoll.Many people use the five-second rule.The rule says that fallen food is safe to eat if it has been on the floor for less than five seconds.Can people really use the five-second rule to save a dropped sandwich?Or should they throw it and make a fresh one?Donald Schaffner is a professor of food science.His study shows that the five-second rule should not always be used.In his 2016report,he says it's not wise to eat dropped wet food.The wet food takes in bacteria (细菌)as soon as it falls."Bacteria don't have legs,they move with the moisture," Schaffner says.The wetter the food is,the more bacteria it soaks up (吸收).Anthony Hilton studied the five-second rule too.He is a professor of Life and Health Sciences.Hilton found that a dry food on the floor collects fewer bacteria than a wet food.Hilton also found that carpeted floors pass fewer bacteria than wood floors.Still,one should be careful."Food that is on the floor is never completely risk-free to eat," he says."But if you drop a dry food in your house,it's usually okay if you pick it up very quickly.Most clean homes don't have bad bacteria."Should you eat food that was dropped on the kitchen counter?Dr.Steven Dowshen is a doctor for children.He says that floors are not the only place that can make food unsafe to eat."Kitchen counters can contain more harmful bacteria," Dowshen told TFK.This is because raw foods sometimes have bad bacteria called salmonella.These raw foods can be on kitchen counters."If people eat food off a surface Lt has salmonella,they can get very sick," says Dowshen.With the five-second rule,the type of food and the place where it falls matter.So perhaps use this e instead:When in doubt,throw it out.28.What's Donald Schaffner's opinion about the five-second rule?______A. The five-second rule should always be used.B. The drier the food is,the more bacteria it takes in.C. It's a good choice to eat the dropped wet food.D. The minute the wet food falls,it soaks up bacteria.29.The underlined word " risk-free" probably means " ______ "A. deliciousB. dangerousC. safeD. easy30.What can you infer from the passage?______A. People should not eat a dropped sandwich on any places.B. People cannot eat food that is on the floor because of salmonella.C. People need to consider the type of the dropped food before eating.D. People should be careful about the food dropped on the kitchen counter.31.What's the writer's purpose of writing the passage?______A. To introduce the five-second rule to people.B. To encourage people to use the five-second rule.C. To show different people's opinions about the five-second rule.D. To advise people to think twice before using the five-second rule.DRik-rrork.That's the sound made by frogs singing at night.u might have thought the noises were just the musical sounds of ure.You probably didn't realize that you were listening to frogs nmunicating with one another.These familiar sounds are not randomi意的)but are actually meaningful to frogs.Being Heard but Not SeenFrogs are good at being heard but not seen.These animals have several characters that protect them n predators (捕食者).One is their size.Most frogsare small,which helps them hide easily.Many frogs have coloring that allows them to hide in their environment,making it difficult for predators to find them.In addition,most frogs are active at night.So it is difficult for most animals to see them in the dark.Small but LoudFrogs call to tell other frogs where they are.Their voices can be very loud.But when frogs feel the footsteps of a larger animal,they become silent.Many of the world's frogs live in rain forests,where there are many different animals calling to their own species (物种)in their own ways.Frogs need to call loudly enough to be heard through the noise in order to find other frogs.Singing with PurposePeter Narins is a scientist who studies how frogs call to one another.He has learned that frogs use their calls to help them tell friend from enemy.They sing the same notes at the same volume (音量)each time they call.In addition,Narins has found that frogs of the same species always sing the same patterns (模式).These patterns are like a code that is different from other animals' calls and difficultfor others to copy.Narins also observed that timing plays a role in frog calls.Many frogs call only at a certain time of night.More Work to DoScientists want to better understand the purpose of frog calls.Studies continue to explore the details of frogs' unique communication.Being heard but not seen is one way frogs stay safe.The idea that they have found a way to survive in a dangerous world is simply amazing.32.Frogs are good at being heard but not seen because ______A. they can not jump highB. they can hide easilyC. they are not active enoughD. they have bright colors33.Frogs need to call loudly to ______A. drive away other speciesB. tell friend from enemy quicklyC. be heard by other frogsD. feel the footsteps of a larger animal34.What can we learn from the passage?______A.

Some details of frogs' communication still leave unknown.35.Which is probably the best title of the passage?______A. Frog SongsB. Life of Frogs C Frog Secrets D.World of Frogs四、任务型阅读-简答(本大题共1小题,共10.0分)36.Sometimes the world may feel like an unhappy place.However.you can make adifference.If you make even a person smile today,you can help make this world a better place.Here is a list of ideas to help you.Send a handwritten letter In this age where everything is sent by email,it is a shock to receive a letter through the post.Writing a few words on paper to a friend is an easy way to make one smile.Even a postcard with a couple of sentences could really makesomeone's day- all for the price of a stamp!VolunteerVolunteering is one of the nicest things you can do.It requires (需要)some time and research to find the perfect project before volunteering.Whether you volunteer at your local youth group or take dogs from the shelters for a walk,the simple fact that you are giving up your time to help someone else is unbelievable.There are so many chances,so you are sure to find one that is right for you.And it doesn't necessarily have to take up all your time-it could be once a week or a couple of times a year.Make something for a special personWhether you're creative or not,taking time to make something for someone else shows how much you appreciate (感激)them.Even if you think you are not creative,the receiver will feel lucky to get such a special gift that you put your time into.Some ideas could include a card,painting,drawing,song,poem or cake!Tell someone "I love you"It can be anyone-a family member or a friend.You don't even have to say "I love you".Perhaps you can tell a friend that you appreciate all they are to you,or remind your mum that you love her.Sometimes,in our busy lives,we forget to take a moment to tell people what they mean to us.Is writing a few words on paper an easy way to make a friend smile?______What does it require to find the perfect project before volunteering?______How will the receiver feel to get a special gift?______What do we sometimes forget to do in our busy lives?______What is the passage mainly about?______五、书面表达(本大题共1小题,共10.0分)37.根据中文和英文提示,完成一篇不少于50词的文段写作.所给提示词语仅供选用.请不要写出你的校名和姓名.每学期学校都会组织丰富多彩的出游活动.学校校刊以"A School Trip to …"为题征文,请你根据一次出游活动写一篇短文投稿.请补全题目.谈谈你去了哪里,做了什么以及学到了什么.提示词语:visit, enjoy, memory, culture,meaningful提示问题:1.Where did you go on your school trip?2.

它铭刻了中世纪古老的社会在炮口逼迫下走入近代的最初一步。
”这场战争是指A. 鸦片战争B. 第二次鸦片战争C. 甲午中日战争D. 八国联军侵华战争【答案】A【解析】根据材料“这场战争是一块界碑.它铭刻着中世纪古老的社会在炮口逼迫下赶往近代的最初一步”结合所学可知,鸦片战争给中国带来巨大的屈辱和深重的灾难。
中国的大门从此被迫打开,外患接踵而至,主权和领土完整不断遭到破坏。
中国由一个独立自主的封建国家开始沦为半殖民地半封建国家。
鸦片战争战败被迫签订了《南京条约》,从此中国开始从封建社会逐步沦为半殖民地半封建社会,它是中国近代史的开端。
A符合题干,BCD 都不是近代史的开端,所以答案选A2. 第二次鸦片战争后,清王朝面临两股列强势力的钳制。
南方列强势力强调扩展商务与经济特权,北方列强势力更注重领土扩张。
其中北方列强势力主要是指A. 英国B. 法国C. 美国D. 俄国【答案】D..................3. 太平天国运动由盛转衰的标志是A. 永安封王B. 定都天京C. 天京事变D. 安庆陷落【答案】C【解析】根据所学可知,太平天国达到鼎盛时期的事件是1856年完成西征后,永安封王和定都天京均发生在1856年之前;天京事变指的是1856年,太平天国内部出现的领导集团内部政权夺利和猜忌导致的内乱,内乱导致太平天国元气大伤,是为天京事变,此时成为太平天国运动由盛转衰的转折点,C项符合题意;安庆陷落是天京事变之后的1860年;ABD三项不符合题意,故选C。
4. 某校历史小组作题为“甲午中日战争英雄人物”的报告。
报告中应该出现的英雄人物是①左宝贵②林则徐③邓世昌④谭嗣同A. ①②B. ①③C. ②④D. ③④【答案】B【解析】根据所学可知,左宝贵是在甲午中日战争的平壤战役中牺牲的清军将领;林则徐是鸦片战争爆发前领导禁烟和鸦片战争中的第一阶段抗击英军的民族英雄;邓世昌在甲午战争的黄海大战中壮烈殉国;谭嗣同是在戊戌变法中为变法流血牺牲的“戊戌六君子”之一。

Ben stopped eating his apple. Tom swept his brush(刷子) carefully back and forth, added a touch of paint here and there, and stopped to take a look at it all. Ben watched every move and became more and more interested until he finally said, "Tom, why don't you let me paint a little?"Tom thought a while, "Well, no, I can't let you, Ben.

But very soon culture shock(文化冲击)came, which manypeople mistake as the phase(阶段)of feeling discomfort, unhappinessand homesickness. However, culture shock is more than that!The Honeymoon PhaseThe so-called "honeymoon phase" means those first weeks or monthswhen you are super happy to be in another culture and everythingyou go through—from cultural differences such as ways of living to clothes, music, and food—seems so new and exciting.The Negotiation PhaseHowever, after about two months, things started to feel strange. Differences became clearer. I started missing my friends and family more and more. I began to keep thinking like this: nobody really understands me. I wish people would just be able to speak German for one day! Why is it so impossible to find bread from Germany? In the "negotiation phase", feelings change from time to time, homesickness last night, excitement this morning.The Adjustment PhaseOver the next few months, then, came a special time. I knew what I should do every day. I learned to forget about my loneliness and unhappiness, started to understand new ways of thinking and made many new friends. I had slowly and unknowingly entered the "adjustment phase" . My English improved greatly—not only my vocabulary had improved but I also thought and dreamed only in English!The Mastery PhaseThings started to make sense and I understood Australian culture better! Every day I felt more and more comfortable with my new home. I would like to say 'I have a second nationality'. My happiest moment was when my dear friend one day said, "You are Australian now, Jude! You sound just like us!" She saw me turn from a quiet shy German who could hardly follow a conversation to who I am now.I want to point out that the effects(影响)of culture shock and the timing of the different phases are different for everyone and can mean different acts and feelings.

To me they are some kind of magic way to theworld, a place from which to start great holidays and adventures. But today itlooked like a cold and heartless place. I looked at my sister, her eyes were alltears(眼泪), but she tried to keep a brave face. "You'd better go or you'll bettergo or you'll miss your flight," she said."I'll miss you," I answered, and with those last words I was off, without lookingback, but when I reached the customs(海关)offices I was crying. To me it was the end of the world, I felt like my best friend had just been taken away from me.Growing up, my sister and I would do everything together. She was only fifteen months older than me and we not only looked alike, we were alike. We both had that same mix of curiosity and fear(好奇又害怕)of all things unknown to us. I remember countless times when we ask each other, "Want to come to the attic(阁楼)?" … We both were afraid of the atticbut also loved its smells and sounds. Whenever one of us needed something, the other one would come along. Together we would fight the life-size spiders and fight through the endless boxes until we found what we needed.When the time came for us to go to college, what better way than for us to go together. But now that our college days were over and I was off to a foreign country to start a new life, all I had left were memories.The plane shook heavily and my bag fell on the floor. A little book fell out of it. I picked it up and opened it—it was a diary.Immediately I recognized(认出)my sister's handwriting. "Hi Sis, what a day it is today! First you let me know that you are moving to another country and then…" only then did I realized that my sister had been keeping a diary for the past month and that she was now passing it on to me. I was to write in it for the next few months and then send it back to her.I spent the rest of the flight reading the diary. Even though a large ocean separated(分开)us, at some point it felt like she was actually there.
