A．The Eiffel Tower was almost torn down．B．Gustave Eiffel was more than an engineer．C．It took great efforts to build the Eiffel Tower．D．The Eiffel Tower has served important purposes．2．The Eiffel Tower was controversial because_____________．A．it was giant and uglyB．it would expire too soonC．some historic buildings had to be removedD．it didn’t match the historic buildings of Paris3．How did Gustave Eiffel save the Eiffel Tower?A．By asking the army to defend it．B．By showing its importance for tourism．C．By making it a base for scientific research．D．By asking the government to renew its permit．4．The arrest of a famous spy is mentioned to show．A．the Eiffel Tower has lost its initial valueB．the Eiffel Tower has existed long enoughC．research done in the Eiffel Tower had unexpected payoffsD．the Eiffel Tower was successfully preserved during the war第三节七选五 (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。

According to the Kepler space telescope,about half the stars similar in temperature (23) __________ our Sun could have a rocky planet capable of supporting liquid water on its surface.Our galaxy holds at least an (24) __________ (estimate) 300 million of these potentially habitable worlds, based on even the most conservative interpretation of the results in anew study to be published in The Astronomical Journal.This research helps us understand the potential for these planets (25) __________ (support) life. This is an essential part of astrobiology, the study of life’s origins and future in our universe.The study is authored by NASA scientists (26) __________ worked on the Kepler mission alongside collaborators from around the world. NASA retired the space telescope in 2018after it ran out of fuel. Nine years of the telescope’s observations revealed that there are billions of planets in our galaxy--more planets than stars.(27) __________ this result is far from a final value, it’s extremely exciting that we c alculated that these worlds are this common with such high confidence.That’s a wide range of different stars, each with (28) __________ own particular properties impacting whether the rocky planets in its orbit are capable of supporting liquid water.These complexities are partly why it is so difficult to calculate how many potentially habitable planets are out there, especially when even our (29) __________(powerful) telescopes can just barely detect these small planets. That’s __________ (30) the research team took a new approach.Section BDirections: Fill in each blank with a proper word chosen from the box. Each word can be used only once. Note that there is one word more than you need.A. benefitsB.attractC. engagementD. trackE.measuringF. committedG.promoting H.rewards I. motivated J. seeking K.satisfactionWork is necessary to earn an income, and if you get good job (31) _________, it’s a bonus!

Traditionally, these have included a good pension and extra days off work. But when a job used to be for life, there wasn’t much incentive to try and keep staff. Now when millennials are (33) _________ a position, they want to know the benefits they’ll get on top of their pay.But these perks come at a cost to an employer, and now technology is being used to discover if and when they offer value for money. The idea aims to enable a company to tailor what it can offer to (34) _________ and retain the right staff.As an example, at merchant bank, Close Brothers, AI has been used to develop chatbots that can help employees to find information on subjects ranging from mental health to saving for retirement at any time.

Dr Ginther, who was working (43) _________ America’s National Institutes of Health (NIH), found that (44) _________ matters a lot.Moreover, it is not just a question of white supremacy. Asian and Hispanic scientists do just as well as white ones. Black scientists, (45) _________, do badly.One possible explanation is that review panels are inferring applicants’ ethnic (46) _________ from their names, or the institutions they attended as students. Consciously or not,the reviewers may then be awarding less merit to those from people with“black-sounding” names, or who we re educated at universities whose students are predominantly black. Indeed, a(n) (47) _________bias has been found in those recruiting for jobs in the commercial world. One well-known study, published in 2003 by researchers at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology and the University of Chicago, found that fictitious CVs (简历) with stereo typically white names elicited 50% more (48) _________ of interviews than did CVs with black names, even when the applicants’ stated (49) _________ were identical.Another possible explanation is social (50) _________: It is in the nature of groups of experts(which isprecisely what peer-review panels are) to know both each other and each o ther’s most promising acolytes. Applicants outside this charmed circle might have less chance of (51) _________ consideration. If the charmed circle itself were racially unrepresentative, those (52) _________ from the network because their racial group was under-represented in the first place would find it harder to break in.Though Dr Ginther’s results are (53) _________, it is to the NIH’s credit that it has published her findings. The agency is also starting a programme intended to alter the (54)_________ of the review panels to see whether excising potential racial cues from applications changes outcomes. Other agencies, and not just in America, should pay strict attention to all this, and ask themselves if they, too, are (55)_________ people of particular races. Such discrimination is not only disgraceful, but also a stupid waste of talent!41. A. expect B.cooperate C. decide D.challenge42.A. Similarly B.Evidently C.Unfortunately D.

A. reminding B.employing C. informing D.failingSection BDirections: Read the following three passages. Each passage is followed by several questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage you have just read.(A)At the 4th Street Photo Gallery on the comer of the Bowery, many photos are strung together like clothes on a laundry line. There are portraits of Muhammad Ali and Jean-Michel Basquiat, plus a series of cityscapes detailedly captured over 60 years by Alex Harsley, a neglected but talented New York photographer.The city has been Mr Harsley's home since 1948, when, aged ten, he moved there from South Carolina. He took his first photograph ten years later, and became the first black photographer to work for the city's district attorney's office. His vivid pictures freeze moments in New York's evolution from the 1950s to the present, “It could start with the smell of someth ing burning/' he says of his method. "And then you see a family sitting on the steps of a funeral home sadly looking at the firemen going through their routine.”Some of the scenes in the collection were captured from the window of his old apartment in Harlem; they include images of black activists, streets submerged in snow and shots of the Crown Heights riots of 1991. A.D. Coleman, a photography critic, says Mr. Harsley has been able to capture the lives of minority groups by making himself “invisible”. His aim has been to assemble these fragments(片段) into an extended history of the city.Mr. Harsley's gallery is a time capsule. For decades, it is also a hub for the city's artistic underworld. In the 1970s New York's photography scene was flourishing, but exclusive. As Mr. Harsley puts it, “a numb er of great artists were swept aside” because they lacked connections. Helping talent became part of his mission. In 1971 he established The Minority Photographers, an organization that helps up-and-coming artists exhibit their work. He opened his gallery two years later; many photographers have had their first shows there.56. How does the author describe Alex Harsley in the first paragraph?A. undervalued but expertB. gifted but exclusiveC. unknown but devotedD. gifted but awkward57. What does the underlined sentence mean?A. His pictures show freezing weather in New York from the 1950s to the present.B. His pictures capture the cheerful moments in New York since the 1950s.C. His pictures record some historic occasions of New York over the past decades.D. His pictures illustrate the vivid lives of minority groups in New York over the past decades.58. Why does Mr. Harsley make himself "invisible"?A. To assemble the minority groups of the city.B. To highlight the lives of minority groups.C. To help promising artists attract more public attention.D. To build connections between the minority groups and himself.59. How did Mr. Harsley help the other artists?A.He excluded those who looked down upon the unknown artists.B. He set an organization displaying their works.C. He established the connections between up-and-coming artists and famous ones.D. He reduced the rents of the gallery where their photography works were shown.(B)TROUBLESHOOTINGFor possible malfunctions as described below, please contact Customer Services at 1-800-2020-123 PROBLEM POSSIBLE CAUSE SOLUTIONThe coffee is not hot. • The cups were not preheated. • Warm the cups by rinsing themwith hot water (N.B. you can usethe hot water function).Coffee does not come out ofthe spouts.• The spouts are blocked. • Clean the spouts wi th a toothpick.The coffee does not come out of the spouts, but from around the service door. • The holes in the spouts areclogged with dry coffee dust.• The coffee guide in side theservice door is blocked and cannotswing.• Clean the spouts with a t oothpick,sponge or hard bristled kitchenbrush.•Thoroughly clean the coffeeguide,particularly near the hinges.The frothed milk has large bubbles. • The milk is not cold en ough or isnot semi-skimmed.• You should ideally use skimmedor semi-skimmed milk atrefrigerator temperature (about5 °C).

Many psychological studies conducted over the past two decades suggest Westerners have a more individualistic, analytic and abstract mental life than do East Asians. Several hypotheses (假设) have been put forward to explain this.One, that modernization promotes individualism, falls at the first hurdle: Japan, an ultra-modem country whose people have retained a collective outlook. A second, that a higher rate of infectious disease in a place makes contact with strangers more dangerous, and causes groups to turn inward, is hardly better. Europe has had its share of plagues; probably more than either Japan or Korea.That led Thomas Talheim of the University of Virginia and his colleagues to look into a third suggestion: that the crucial difference is agricultural. The basic West crop is wheat; the East's rice. Before the mechanization of agriculture a farmer who grew rice had to spend twice as many hours doing so as one who grew wheat. To organize labour efficiently, especially at times of planting and harvesting, rice-growing societies as far apart as India, Malaysia and Japan all develop co-operative labour exchanges which let neighbors stagger their farms' schedules in order to assist each other during these crucial periods. Since, until recently almost everyone alive was a farmer, it is a reasonable hypothesis that such a collective outlook would dominate a society's culture and behaviour, and might prove so deep-rooted that even now, when most people earn their living in other ways, it helps to define their lives.Mr. Talheim realized that this idea is testable. Large areas of Asia, particularly in the north, depend not on rice, but on wheat. That, as he explains in a paper in Science, let him and his team put some flesh on this theory's bones. The team gathered almost 1,200 volunteers from all over Asia and asked them questions to assess their individualism or collectivism. The answers bore little relation to the wealth of a volunteer's place of origin. There was a striking correlation, though, with whether it was a rice-growing or a wheat-growing area. This difference was marked even between people from neighbouring counties with different agricultural traditions.Undoubtedly, Talheim's hypothesis has pointed to a direction worth further exploration. Viewing the message from modernized countries such as Japan, Korea and Singapore, which still hold on to collectivism, perhaps we can say: Asian values-with their principles of mutual support and collective action-are only "Asian" because back in ancient times, farmers in many parts of that continent found rice a more suitable crop to grow than wheat.63. According to the second paragraph, which statement does die author most probably agree with?A. The first hypothesis fails to justify Japan's ever-keeping collectivism as well as the second.B. The exposure to plague outbreaks increases the probability of the Europeans to turn back to individualism.C.

Their efforts have enjoyed backing from the government, which has issued many instructions toguide the mental-health response to the disease.F. These days many Chinese recognize that mental-health problems are common.Late in January Shen Yinjing, a therapist in Shanghai, volunteered to help distressed people in the coronavirus-stricken city of Wuhan by offering counselling over the phone or by text. Before long she was running an online support group for people being treated in one of Wuhan's makeshift hospitals tor covid-19 patients. Now Ms. Shen wonders how she should assist those losing their beloved ones because of the disease. (67)______________ .Ms Shen is among a small army of mental-health professionals who have provided support during the coronavirus outbreak. Hundreds of universities and charities have set up “psychological hotlines” f or people suffering from depression.

A Chinese government-funded survey published in 2019 found that such disorders were becoming more common in China.

Summary WritingDirections: Read the following passage. Summarize the main idea and the main point(s) of the passage in no more than 60 words. Use your own words as far as possible.Solving the Problem of E-WasteOne of the problems damaging our planet is the number of things we throw away. A more recent addition to the list of things we chuck away is e-waste - electronic items that are broken and not recycled.Tonnes of televisions, phones, and other electronic equipment are discarded chiefly because we lack the skills to repair them. Fortunately, now solutions are being found to give e-waste a new life.There's a growing trend for repair events and clubs which could be part of a solution to the growing amount of electrical and electronic junk. A Restart Project in London, is one that many found around the world. One of its volunteers, Francesco Calo, said that "this project allows you to reduce waste, extend the life of objects, and it helps people who cannot afford to get rid of items that have developed a fault.As many electrical items contain valuable metals, another idea is e-waste mining. An experiment at the University of New South Wales involves extracting these materials from electronic appliances. It's thought that doing this could be more profitable than traditional mining.These projects make total sense --- collections of e-waste for recycling are depressing or even decreasing" according to Ruediger Kuehr, of the United Nations University. And in countries where there is no laws, much of it just gets dumped. However, the European Union, for example, is trying to tackle the problem by insisting manufacturers have to make appliances longer-lasting and will have to supply spare parts for machines for up to 10 years.V. TranslationDirections: Translate the following sentences into English, using the words given in the brackets.72.他处理这个问题的方法是有效的。

When you receive an item that was bought and paid for on our site, and you find it is not as described or is of low quality, you can contact the seller to resolve these problems. DHgate will offer additional assistance if the seller is not cooperative.Scope（范围）The following points should not be included in the "Returns & Refund Guarantee":▲ The seller didn't make any promise.▲ The seller can provide evidence to prove the items are as described.▲ You didn't contact the seller within the promised time.▲ You have released the payment to the seller before asking DHgate for help.Sellers are able to set up the following promises:Returning items for any reasonBuyers can return items for a refund within a specific date which has been set up by sellers, such as 3 days, and 7 days from the day when the items are received. The items' receiving date is the date that is indicated on the shipping carrier's official website.

It may be that the value of Whole Foods to Amazon is not so much the 460 shops of owns, but the records of which customers have purchased what．Competition law appears to be the only way to address these imbalances of power． But it is clumsy． For one thing, it is very slow compared to the pace of change within the digital economy． By the time a problem has been addressed and remedied it may have vanished in the marketplace, to be replaced by new abuses of power． But there is a deeper conceptual problem, too． Competition law as presently interpreted deals with financial disadvantage to consumers and this is not obvious when the users of these services don't pay for them． The users of their services are not their customers． That would be the people who buy advertising from them ﹣ and Facebook and Google, the two virtual giants, dominate digital advertising to the disadvantage of all other media and entertainment companies．The product they're selling is data, and we, the users, convert our lives to data for the benefit of the digital giants． Just as some ants farm the bugs called aphids for the honeydew they produce when they feed, so Google farms us for the data that our digital liver yield． Ants keep enemy insects away from where their aphids（蚜虫） feed; Gmail keeps the spammers out of our inboxes． It doesn't feel like a human or democratic relationship, even if both sides benefit．（1）According to Paragraph1，Facebook acquired WhatsApp for its________．A.digital productser informationC.physical assetsD.quality service．（2）Linking phone numbers to Facebook identities may________．A.worsen political disputesB.mess up customer recordsC.pose a risk to Facebook usersD.mislead the European commission．（3）Competition law as presently interpreted can hardly protect Facebook users because________．A.they are no defined as customersB.they are not financially reliableC.these services are generally digitalD.the services are paid for by advertisers．（4）The ants analogy is used to illustrate________．A.a win﹣win business model between digital giantsB.a typical competition pattern among digital giantsC.the benefits provided for digital giants' customersD.the relationship between digital giants and their users．Shelly hugged her husband．"Be careful, Billy．""Come on, Shell!" Bill rolled his eyes． "You worry too much, Honey． Me and the boys will be OK． It's just a three ﹣ day trip． We'll catch enough halibut to be able to fix up the baby's room the way you want it．" '"Billy, I love you and worry every time you go to sea, especially in winter．""Shell, I promise I'll be careful． I may be the youngest captain in this port, but I'm the most careful． I learned at the helm of Daddy's boat, which I was practically raised on．" They hugged again． Bill planted a tender kiss on her cheek, rested his open palm on her slightly swollen stomach, "Besides, I need to be here． Little Billy will need his daddy．" Shelly slapped him on the shoulder． "It's Billy Jean and you know it．"Bill laughed, "Not on my watch, Girl． I gave you a boy to take over as captain．"Their laughter broke the tension． "I have to go, Shell． See you in a few days? " He turned to leave and then turned back, reached into the pocket of his heavy coat and pulled out an envelope．"I almost forgot． Here's my letter? "Shelly took the crisp envelope and slipped into the pocket of her dress． "Thanks, Billy．" It had been their custom since they started dating． Billy gave her a note before he went to sea． She wasn't allowed to open it until the next day． He usually wrote of love or sometimes something silly ﹣ both made her smile． She wrote a reply and left it on the kitchen table for him． Reading her reply was the first thing he did when he came home． She watched as her husband walked the'length of the pier to where the forty﹣five foot "Shelly Girl" and his crew waited． He gave a final wave and climbed aboard．Shelly stood by their pickup truck and watched until the boat rounded the point and disappeared from view． "I love you, Billy．" she whispered． "Be safe．" ①That evening, five hundred miles to the south, a small winter depression moved north along the Atlantic coast of the USA．Experts found an unexpected change in the jet stream, which would make the small depression become a raging winter storm．②Shelly woke in the morning and listened to the weather report on the battered radio sitting on kitchen table． The phone rang．"Hello．""Shelly? ""Hi, Gail!" She recognized the voice of her friend, who was the wife of one of Billy's crew． "Have you heard the weather? ""Hang on a second． I just turned the radio on．" Shelly's face paled as she heard the weather person say a major winter depression had moved into the area． "Oh crap!""That's what I said too．""They'll be OK, Gail． They're experienced fishermen．" Shelly said to Gail It was a attempt to convince herself that her man would be safe．③Off the south shore of Nova Scotia, Bill struggled to control the Shelly Girl in the growing waves． Wind and water attacked Bill and his crew from all directions． The forty﹣ andfifty﹣foot walls of water were too much of a challenge for the young captain．The force of the water flipped the boat over, tore the wheelhouse off and tossed Bill and his crew into the icy Atlantic．The water, only a few degrees above the freezing point, soon overcame Bill's will to live． "Shelly!He took a last painful breath of salt water and slipped below the surface．④The crisp envelope bent beneath her fingers as she laid it on her lap and read． "Shelly, you are my life, my love and soon﹣to﹣be mother of our son一girl if that is what you really want． I'll always come home．"Shelly reached for the pen in her dress pocket． Tears dripped from her face and stained the paper she wrote on, "____________．"Her note sits on their kitchen table still ﹣ never read．（1）Why was Shelly worried too much when Billy go to sea this time？________A.Because she and their baby Billy Jean needed Billy's protection and care．B.Because she knew from the radio that a major winter depression would come．C.Because she had a feeling that Billy would never return home．D.Because she cared about Billy's safety in the sea， especially in winter．．（2）What can we learn from the passage？________A.Billy could read Shelly's reply letter only when he returned home from the sea．B.Billy and Shelly wrote letters to each other since they got married．C.Shelly read Billy's letter eagerly each time she got his letter．D.They exchanged their letters with each other every time Billy went out．．（3）Which word can be filled in the blank in the passage？________A.weakB.strongC.hardD.desperate．（4）Where can the sentences "Shell sat in her favorite spot on the porch of their weathered beach house， the salty air sticking to her heavy winter clothes． The oncoming storm blew sand across her winter boots．$^{"}$ be put in？________A.①B.②C.③D.④．（5）Which of the following may be Shelly's reply to Billy's letter？________A.Billy， you were so brave， I always knew．B.Billy， I always knew the ocean was your home．C.Billy， I always knew， you would come back．D.Billy， I love you， I would always wait for

company． I asked her what tips she would give to someone early in their career． Without hesitationshe jumped right into four keys to her professional climb：Know your business． Never get satisfaction with your industry or your position． In most cases， the knowledge you hold now is not good enough to stand the test of time． Thus，you must keep working to stay on top of what's new and what's coming down the pipeline． This is what really counts， especially early in a professional career， as many entry level associates are content to be gainfully employed．Pick careers with care． Again， early in your career it is easy to run after the job that offers the most money． In the case of a life﹣long career money cannot answer all things． If you are going to be an entrepreneur then you'll probably start with a budget of zero． Yet， if you have the discipline， working for yourself could be the best choice you've ever made．If you are going to work for a company you have to do your homework． If you find a company that consists with your values and produces a product that you 100% believe in，then you'll have an easy time giving that organization your all．Be personable． If everyone hates to be around you at the office， it's time to check your attitude． We've all heard at least one anecdote about a great thinker with great skills who drove coworkers crazy． Someway， somehow many of the brightest and best lack the "people skills" to advance beyond an entry﹣level position．In short， you must have the interpersonal insight to interact with internal and external contacts． If not， you may find that you are unimportant once someone with soft﹣skills joins the organization． Why？ People have to buy you before they ever buy the productyou're selling．Be willing to move． This is where I got puzzled． She shared how she lived in seven states still working for the same organization．Much is made of moving in today's attempts to climb the corporate ladder． As more and more companies extend to have a global reach， it is easy to understand why new opportunities birth in various locations．Whatever the path， outline in your heart what destination you hope to reach and this willbe a key indicator as to which journey will be greatest for you．Title： The Greatest Journey请阅读下面一篇短文，并按照要求用英语写一篇 150 词左右的文章．Reading a paper book may be a forgotten luxury （奢侈） for many people thanks to today's busy lifestyles， but listening to a book， while shopping or jogging is a growing trend． Now， audio books can be easily downloaded from the Internet at the same， if not lower， prices as the print editions．Mary Beth Roche， publisher of Macmillan Audio， says many of their readers use audio books as a "multitasking tool"， a way to consume books when their eyes are busy． For others， whose work may involve spending lots of time looking at the screen， audio books are a way to relax． "It's sort of nice to sit back and have a story told to you，" said Roche．In the United States， audio books have long been a serious business， simply because Americans on average spend so much time in their cars． "It is a good way for consumers to make the time in traffic quality time，" said Roche． "Even way back when it was the cassette and then the CD， the number one place where people listened was in car． When audio books became available in the digital format， people started using them during other activities﹣when they are shopping， jogging， performing household tasks and so

The main idea of the passage is about________.A. the importance of environmental protectionB. some ways about how to prevent pollutionC. some suggestions about how to save energyD. some suggestions about environmental protectionBThe term "bird brain" is frequently used to describe a person's lack of intelligence and good decision-making ability. However, some scientists believe it should be considered a praise, given that many birds can perform human tasks like producing and using tools, solving problems, and planning for future needs. Now,Griffin, an African Grey parrot, has proved that birds may even possess better visual memories than human adults and children.The study, led by Hrag Pailian, a researcher at Harvard University, had the parrot compete in the game against twenty-one undergraduate students and twenty-one 6 to 8-year-old children. The popular challenge involves hiding a small object under one of three or more upside-down cups, which are moved around. Participants are required to accurately identify the cup under which the object lies. To make the task more challenging, the researchers required participants to track two, three, and four objects at the same time.An analysis of the results showed thatGriffinoutperformed the 6 to 8-year-olds across all levels on average. Even more impressive, the "bird brain" performed as well as, or slightly better than, the 21 Harvard students on 12 of the 14 trials! It was only in the final two tests, which had the most objects and most movement, that the parrot fell behind the adults. However,Griffin's performance was never below that of the children.Griffinwas the candidate of choice because the scientists needed an animal that had a brain functionality similar to that of humans. "The fact that the smart parrot loves to show off his brain power in exchange for a few cashews (腰果) did not hurt either", said Irene Pepperberg, a Harvard lecturer, who has trained Griffin and several other African Grey parrots, has been studying the species for over four decades and is considered a pioneer in the study of bird intelligence.4. Whatwere the participants required to do in the study?A. Identify different kinds of objects.B. Tell where the hidden object lies.C. Track other participants' performance.D. Move around upside-down cups.5. What did the results of the study indicate?A. 6 to 8-year-olds did better thanGriffin.B. Parrots have a better memory than other birds.C.

"Bird brain" becomes a term for a stupid person.B. Harvard lecturer pioneers in bird intelligence study.C. Parrot outsmarted Harvard students in visual memory test.D. Researchers made new discoveries about human intelligence.CThe founder of Earth Day was Gaylord Nelson, a U.S. Senator fromWisconsin. During the late 1960s, Americans witnessed the uninvited side effects of high productivity. Factories and power plants were sending out smoke and industrial waste while Americans were using petrol for their massive(大量的) cars, making air pollution almostsynonymous withthe nation’s development.What moved Senator Nelson to action was the 1969 massive oil spill inCalifornia, the largest in theUnited Statesat that time. The spill proved to be an environmental nightmare as it had a significant effect on marine life, killing about 3,500 sea birds, as well as marine animals such as dolphins, elephant seals and sea lions, fueling public anger. Inspired by the student antiwar movement at that period of time, Nelson found it an appropriate time to direct the energy of the students towards a fight for environmental protection. He decided that it was time to educate the Americans on the need to protect the environment. Thus Earth Day was born in 1970, and public environmentalawareness took centre stage.On 22ndApril 1970, millions of Americans took to the street and thousands of students marched to appeal for a healthy, sustainable environment. There was now a new synergy(协同作用) among different groups which had previously been fighting their causes related to the environment. Their fight for environmental conservation became so overwhelming that affected businesses were forced to follow environmental standards if they wanted to continue their operations.As it became more apparent that environmental issues were not just localized ones but a global concern, theyear 1990 saw Earth Day reach out to many more around the world. Earth Day 1990 helped pave the way for the 1992 United Nations Earth Summit inRio de Janeiro, bringing together many nations for a united effort towards protecting the environment.8. Which of the following can replace the underlined phrase “synonymous with” in paragraph 1?A. familiar withB. opposite toC. different fromD. equal to9. Why did Nelson found Earth Day?A. To support students’ antiwar movement.B. To draw people’s attention to the seriousness of the oil spill.C. To arouse American’s awareness of environmental conservation.D. To educate Americans to protect marine life threatened by oil spill events.10. What can be inferred from the passage?A. Businesses would like to follow environmental standards.B. Earth Day united people to fight for environmental protection.C. It was the side effects of high productivity that led Nelson to take action.D. The 1992 United Nations Earth Summit made Earth Day known to more countries.11. The passage mainly talks about_______.A. how Earth Day came into beingB. why Earth Day was so significantC. who the founder of Earth Day wasD. what Earth Day meantto the worldDAn afternoon nap(午睡)is one of the joys of life, although too much napping could signal all is not well. In some cultures, people will have a daily nap — thisis fine. The warning comes when people start sleeping during the daytime, when they did not before. There is certainly a good reason to believe that daytime sleepiness — as in the Alzheimer's study — can be a marker of an underlying condition.For most people, napping during the day is mainly a sign that you are not getting enough sleep at night, says Dr. Neil Stanley, a sleep expert. "If you feel sleepy during the day, you should think about taking a nap. That is what the body needs — it doesn't need to be kept awake with caffeine, it needs sleep. "The feeling to notice is "sleepiness", he says, not "tiredness", which could be more psychological and linked to stress.So how do you nap well? The key thing, says Stanley, is how long your nap lasts. Choose either a 20-or 90-minute nap. "When you fall asleep, you'll quickly go through the lighter stages of sleep into your first period of deep sleep. You don't want to wake up in deep sleep because that's when you wake and feel worse than you did before. "Napping for 20 minutes means you will wake up before you go into deep sleep; napping for 90 minutes means you'll complete a sleep cycle.Once you factor in the time it takes to fall asleep — some people are better at napping than others but, says Stanley, "a healthy adult will fall asleep in between 5 and 12 minutes" — you can set an alarm, allowing a 30- to 40-minute period for a short nap, and up to two hours for a longer one.A good time to nap is during the body's natural dip in the afternoon, between 2 pm and 4 pm. "You don't really want to be napping much pastthatbecause then you are going to be eating into your night-time sleep," Stanley says. The point, he stresses, is to get good night-time sleep, which would ensure you probably don't need to nap at all.12. What does an afternoon nap indicate for most people?A. Caffeine addiction.B. Psychological stress.C. Insufficient night sleep.D. Potential physical illness.13. What is the key to a good nap?A. Duration.B. Surroundings.C. Health.D. Stages.14. What does the underlined word "that" in the last paragraph refer to?A. A 30- to 40- minute period.B. Between 2 pm and 4 pm.C. Between 5 and 12 minutes.D. A 20- to 90-minute period.15. Which of the following can be the best title for the text?A. Why to phase a napB. When to take a good napC. What to learn from a napD. How to have a successful nap第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10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。

S. of young people between the ages of 18 and 34. This generation is often called millennials (新千年一代). More than half of millennials in Los Angeles are bilingual (双语的), which means they speak more than one language.Maria Elena Burgos is cooking a Mexican breakfast. She says making Mexican food is just one of the many traditions in her home. Another is speaking Spanish to her children.“We want them to be bilingual. We want to keep the Spanish somewhere in their learning too, not only at home.”When Ms Burgos first came to the United States from Mexico, she learned English. She knew her children would learn English quickly. So she wanted them to speak Spanish at home and study the language at school.She says being bilingual will give them more opportunities in the future. Knowing Spanish also means the children can talk with their s in Mexico.“When we had our children, one of the decisions we as parents made was to name them with a name that was easily pronounced in English and Spanish.”Elizabeth wants to know her family’s culture.” “The culture-to go back to our roots because that’s part of who we are.”Monica wants to pass on the culture to her children“It’s nice to know our culture and then to be able to pass it onto our children and grand-children and everyone to let them know where we come from.”And, Monica says she does not speak only English and Spanish.

Sports & EntertainmentDGrowing up as kids we are told to share our toys and notto be selfish. We also live in an age when discussingour feelings is encouraged. But when does it all become too much? With new crazes trending all the time, such as dance challenges and wearing a carpet as a dress, the question is: when can sharing become oversharing on social media?“Oversharing” has become associated with social media, but it isn'texclusiveto this platform. Imagine you head to a party and meet x k w someone. Within five minutes they have revealed private details about their life. While some of us may try to escape these people, according to marriage advisor Carolyn Cole, this form of oversharing could come from a strong desire to connect with someone. But how does this translate to social media?Dr. Christopher Hand, a lecturer in cyberpsychology (网络心理学），says the more details people disclose, the less sympathy we express when things go wrong. It seems that searching for sympathy by oversharing is generally considered as negative rather than the cry for help it could really be.However, Dr. Hand's research also seems to suggest that the more we post on a platform, the more socially attractive we become-provided that the posts that we bang out are positive. Even back in 2015, Gwendolyn Seidman PhD said that we should avoid complaining and being negative online. We should also avoid showing off, especially about our love lives. It makes sense-if your date is going “that well", would you really have time to share a photo with text?So, how can you know if you are oversharing? Well, why not ask your friends in real life. They would probably be happy to tell you if your posts about your breakfast or your complaints about your lack of money really are too much.12. What does the underlined word “exclusive" in paragraph 2 mean?A. Unique.B. Similar.C. Relevant.D. Fundamental.13. Why do some people prefer oversharing at parties?A. To draw others' attention.B. To satisfy others' curiosity.C. To remove negative feelings.D. To develop good relationships.14. Which of the following may Dr. Hand agree with?A. Sharing more details online can attract more sympathy.B. Oversharing negative experiences is equal to crying for help.C. Sharing negative posts can't help one become socially attractive.D. Oversharing isn't likely to happen online when things go wrong.15. According to the text, what should be avoided for online sharing?A. Reflecting on past bad manners.B. Showing a great many expensive goods.C. Writing a recipe for a balanced breakfast.D. Recording unforgettable moments with friends.第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10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。
