AIf you are a book-lover, you may be interested in the following.Dietland, by Sarai WalkerIf you’re sick of the stick-thin and perfectly slim models of society today, Dietland is for you. The funny novel follows Plum Kettle, an over-weight advice journalist who answers fan mail for a teen girls’ website. She’s convinced thather life won’t really start until she saves up enough money for her weight-loss operation —when she’ll finally look like the “perfect” woman. But after she gets pulled into a series of adventures with a group of women who live life on their own terms, she begins to reconsider her own opinions of what “beauty” really is. Orhan’s Inheritance, by Aline OhanesianAfter Orhan’s Turkish grandfather dies, he learns that while he’s taken over his grandfather’s successful business, the house that’s been in his family for generations was not left to him. Instead, it went to an 87-year-old woman who lives in L.A. that no one in his family has ever heard of. To get to the bottom of this, Orhan travels to L.A. to meet with the woman. It’s then that he uncovers the secrets of his family.Sapiens: A Brief History of Humankind, by Yuval Noah HarariIf the story of evolution (进化) has always interested you, this book is for you.

He takes both an historical and biological approach to his discussion of how humans have evolved over time. He talks about the society created by sapiens and cultural wonders. And perhaps what is most fascinating is the evolution of humans.21. What does Plum Kettle want before she joins the women in the adventures?A. Naturalbeauty.B. A large sum of money.C.

On a Saturday afternoon back in 2002, just when my aunt Lorraine was starting to pack up, I discovered my very own treasure—a pair of black boots. Although they weren't anything fashionable, they caught my eye. Plus they were only two dollars. She noticed me eyeing them up and said I could have them for fifty cents.Even better! I thought to myself as I pulled them on. They were the perfect fit. When I handed over the money little did I know that these boots would accompany me on some of my greatest adventures. Each year I make a journey overseas and that year, I was making arrangements to visit Helsinki (the capital of Finland), so naturally, I packed the boots. It was winter, but the boots protected my feet from the cold weather.I wore them everywhere. The boots even accompanied me as I walked through the night to find live music. I felt right at home among old friends.In 2009, I went to Aunt Lorraine's home to attend my cousin Jason's birthday party. While we were talking, Jason stared at my boots.He asked, “Where did you get those boots？”“I bought them at your family's garage sale，” I responded.Jason flew into a rage. “Mum! You sold my boots? I bought them in Milan and I've worn them through New York, London, Berlin and Paris，” he shouted.After a silence, however, he la ughed and said, “Thanks a lot, Mum！” We spent the rest of the evening sharing memories of the journeys we'd both had wearing the same pair of boots.The boots are no longer fit for wear, but I have held on to them as a memento (纪念物) of the last decade, the places we have walked and the memories we now share.24．The author bought the boots .A．from his cousin B．at the price of $2C．without hesitation D．for his adventurous trips25．The underlined phrase “flew into a rage” means Jason felt .A．surprised B．angryC．worried D．confused26．Jason said thanks to his mother because .A．he didn't want the boots any moreB．it was she who bought him the bootsC．he couldn't travel worldwide without herD．he could share common memories with the author27．What would be the best title for the text?A．Sweet memories. B．A family tradition.C．My beloved boots. D．My great adventures.CWe know more about the surface of the planet Mars than we know about what is at the bottom of Earth's oceans.Until recently, scientists had mapped only about 20 percent of the sea floor. But our knowledge of the deep seas is changing because of information from satellites. Scientists have produced a new map that provides a detailed picture of the oceans. The map is expected to help oceanographers, industry and governments.The new map is twice as detailed as the map made 20 years ago. David Sandwell is a geophysics professor at the Scripps Institution of Oceanography at the University of California. He and other scientists worked on the mapping project. He says they turned to space to look deeper into the ocean. He spoke to VOA on SKYPE.“The way we're doing that is to use a satellite altimeter (高度计), a radar to map the topography (地貌) of the ocean surface. Now that seems sort of strange that you'd map the topography of the ocean surface when you really want to get at the sea floor. But, the ocean surface topography has these bumps and dips due to gravitational effects that mimic what's on the sea floor.”The scientists collected and studied information from two satellites. Some of the data came from the European Space Agency's Cryo­2 satellite. It was placed in Earth's orbit to watch sea ice. The other satellite is the American space agency's Jason­1. It is studying the surface of the oceans. Scientists combined the satellite data with images gathered by sonar equipment on ships. Sonar works by sending sound waves through the water. When the sound waves hit an object, its presence is confirmed.“That enables us to look at smaller­scale features and also features that are buried by sediments in the ocean basins.”The new map shows the sea floor as it has never been seen before. It shows thousands of underwater mountains and places where continents pulled apart. It shows where earthquakes were active many years ago. They all are buried deep underneath the ocean floor.In one place, three mountain ridges join at the same area. Huge tectonic (构造的) plates can be seen clearly there.28．The passage is likely to .A．be an advertisement B．appear on VOAC．make a comment on radar D．appear on SKYPE29．What will be mentioned in the following paragraph, according to the last paragraph?A．The detailed information about the place.B．The more important thing in the ocean.C．The things buried in the ocean.D．Scientists told SKYPE they will explore at the same area.30．Scientists collected and studied information by .A．the European Space Agency's Cryo­2 satelliteB．the American space agency's Jason­1C．sonar equipment on shipsD．the Cryo­2 and the Jason­131．What's the best title of the passage?A．Scientists Create New Maps of Ocean FloorB．Scientists Know More Oceans Than MarsC．Oceans Will Provide Us With MapsD．People Know Easily About MarsDBrown cows may not actually make chocolate milk, but pink silkworms (蚕) do produce pink silk, a team of scientists has discovered. To see if they could produce pre­dyed silk—silk that comes colored, straight from the source—the team fed ordinary silkworms mulberry (桑树) leaves that had been sprayed (喷洒) with fabric (织物) dyes (染色剂). Out of seven tested dyes, only one worked, producing a thread that reminded me of pink­dyed hair.And yes, the worms themselves take on some color before they produce silk. Their colorful diets did not affect their growth, the team, which included engineers andbiologists from the CSIR­National Chemical Laboratory in India, reports in the journal ACS Sustainable Chemistry & Engineering. (The researchers didn't look too deeply into how the dyes affected the silkworms' health. After all, silkworms die when people harvest their silk.)The team made dyeing silk this way because coloring fabric normally uses large amounts of fresh water. The water gets polluted with dangerous chemicals in the process, requiring costly treatment before factories can send it back into waterways. Dyeing silk directly by feeding silkworms would avoid those water­washing steps. Scientists are just starting to study this idea. However, it remains to be seen if it's commercially successful. In this experiment, the Indian team tested seven dyes, which are cheap and popular in the industry.The scientists found different dyes moved through silkworms' bodies differently. Some never made it into the worms' silk at all. Others colored the worms and their silk, but the color disappears before the silk is turned into fabric. Only one dye, named “direct acid fast red”， showed up in the final, washed silk threads. By the time it made it there, it was a pleasant, light pink.32．The text is most probably a(n) ________.A．science report B．tourist guideC．animal experiment D．fashion advertisement33．Silkworms can produce pink silk because ________.A．they are born pink B．they are dyed pinkC．they grow in pink water D．they are fed dyed food34．Where is the experiment carried out?A．In America. B．In India.C．In Israel. D．In China.35．How many dyes have been proved successful in the experiment?A．One. B．Three.C．Five. D．Seven.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。
