What阅读表达[1]A safari park is a park in which wild animals are kept.They are mainly located in east or centralAfrica.They often occupy a very wide area,with mountains and rivers.To visit the park and look atthe animals,people have to drive around in a car for a few hours because the park is huge.[2]In South Africa there is a safari park,which contains all sorts of wild animals like lions,elephants,rhinoceroses(犀牛),zebras,wild pigs,deer and giraffes.[3]There is a wide road leading through the park,but nobody is permitted to walk on the road.Anyone traveling in the park has to go in a car because wild animals may fiercely attack people.Fromthe car he may see almost every type of African wildlife.Some of these are getting scarce(稀有的)because people kill them for various reasons.For example,rhinoceroses are killed for their horns(角),which are used in traditional Chinese medicines for colds and headaches.Perhaps they willBe seen only in museums and books one day.[4]Travelers may purchase food for the animals.They can feed them when they tour the park.Of course,they should not feed them in a close distance because the wild animals may attack people.Inaddition,they should only give proper food to the animals.[5]A traveler may carry a gun with him in his journey.The gun is given to him by the government. However,it is not used for hunting.In fact,a seal is fixed to it.The traveler may fire at a wild beastto defend himself in case he is attacked.However,he has to prove to the government thathe hasbeen attacked and that he has not fired at a harmless animal.71.List one of the reasons why travelers have to stay in a car during their visit.(no more than 6words)72.Why are rhinoceroses getting scarce?(no more than 7 words)73.What warnings are given to travelers when they feed the animals?(no more than 15 words)74.How does the government know the gun is fired?(no more than 10 words)75.What is the passage mainly about?(no more than 6 words)BIn June 2019, for Father’s Day weekend, Curtis Whitson, his girlfriend and his 13yearold so n went backpacking along central California’s Arroyo Seco River. Things went according to plan for the first two days, with the three spending hours hiking through the beautiful forest and drifting down the river.However, on June 16, Father’s Day, when t he backpackers reached the waterfall(瀑布) of which Whitson had planned for the group to rappel (绕绳下降) down the side, Whitson realized that the water currents were too strong to navigate across. Moreover, the rope he was expecting them to use was missing. Since trekking back the way they had e along was dangerous as well, Whitson and his son tried to seek other routes to get around the waterfall but failed. “It was an unpredictable area,”Whitson said. “It was slippery and just too dangerous to risk. We deci ded it was better to be safe than sorry.” The backpackers knew they would be missed in the near future by their friends whom they were scheduled to meet up with at the campgrounds the following day, but Whitson was concerned that his friends, not realizing the urgency of the situation, would wait a day or two before alerting officials. With food running low and no cellphone reception, the three tried yelling each time they heard voices, which didn’t work, and sending a dated message in a water bottle. After throwing the bottle down the waterfall, they got back up the river to a small beach to camp out for the night. Before settling down, they spelled out “SOS” on a blue cloth using white rocks. To ensure it could be seen at night, they kept the sign illuminated with a headlamp (头灯). Sometime after midnight,the three adventurers were found by a rescue helicopter.Due to the darkness, the three were not picked up until the morning of June 17, 2019, shortly after which, they discovered that two hikers had stepped on their water bottle and, upon seeing the message, reported the issue to the officials at the Arroyo Seco campground. “I can’t thank them enough,” Whitson says.76. How was the trip before Father’s Day?A. It seemed to be easy and boring.B. It was as fun as they had expected.C. It was rough and exhausting.D. It was full of unexpected dangers.77. How to describe the troubled backpackers according to paragraph 2?A. Cautious.B. Unwise.C. Hesitant.D. Fearless.78. What does the underlined word “illuminated” probably mean?A. Lit.B. Steady.C. Waving.D. Decorated.79. Which statement is true according to the passage?A. The three didn’t prepare enough supplies fo r the trip.B. The three had some wilderness survival skills.C. The three were saved at last by pure luck.D. The three got rescued as soon as they were discovered.80. What can be inferred about the two hikers who found the message?A. They thought it was a trick at first.B. They found it hard to make out the information.C. They both joined the rescue later.D. They took it seriously and reacted quicklyCWhenever I start a presentation about water governance, I ask the audience if they know what the price of a litre of tap water (一升自来水) is. Usually the room goes quiet, and only a few make a guess, usually an overestimate. My next question is about the price of a litre of petrol (汽油), to which I get the right answer from the audience within a split second.In developed countries, with drinking water readily available everywhere, most people do not realize just how important water really is.Water is an important issue, yet at the same time it cannot be singled out as it is part of the wider environmental story which tells us about the interdependences and linksbetween water and other sectors(领域；部门), such as agriculture, energy, forestry, manufacturing, and waste disposal.Effective water governance is therefore necessary for successful climate change adaptation. Water governance describes the steering ( 导向), coordination and decisionmaking processes of actors to govern water, which includes laws, regulations, public participation and education, with policy (政策) makers, regulators, water panies, nongovernmental organizations and consumers each playing a role.Water governance faces challenges. A key issue is uncertainty due to climate change: we simply do not know if and when the potential effects of climate change will happen, and to what e xtent. So we need “adaptive water governance”, meaning water governance needs to be flexible in order to adapt to uncertainties. Laws and policies should not be set in stone, but reviewed at regular intervals to account for the latest research results or practical experience.Another key issue to overe is the “silomentality” — the noncollaboration across policy sectors, for instance among water, urban planning, agriculture and energy — which we often find in environmental governance. Even within water governance, we often find that flooding and drought policy teams operate separately from each other and are not looking at the issue from an integrated point of view.Water governance is challenging, but there’re many positive examples available. For instan ce, in the Netherlands we find “watersquares”, public places shaped like a bathtub that function both as a playground and as a reserve area for water that runs over after a heavy rain event. It is those cobenefits, being good for climate change adaptation as well as performing another function such as recreation, creating jobs, or restoring wildlife, that are key.81. What does the example in Paragraph 1 indicate?A. People lack water awareness.B. The price of water is unreasonably low.C. Petrol is more valuable to people than water.D. Water governance is a difficult topic to discuss.82. What do you know about water governance?A. It’s the key to climate change adaptation.B. It requires a diversity of actors to be involved.C. The main approach is making laws and regulationsD. The government and water panies take the leading role.83. How to govern water in the face of climate change?A. Stick to the established practices.B. Keep updating the laws and policies.C. Set different standards for different regions.D. Act based on practical experience instead of laws and policies.84. What is much needed for the benefit of water governance?A. The “silomentality”.B. Public participation and education.C. Policy sectors and teams working with each other.D. Abandoning present policies and looking for new approaches.85. Inspired by the Netherlands’ practice, the author thinks water governance ____.A. should be closely connected to our daily lifeB. should include water reserves for future useC. could take advantage of public facilitiesD. should serve bined purposes。

Students of Indiana University write blogs each term. They provide hands-on information about their locations, academic interest and cultural experiences on the “From I to U” Overseas Study Abroad Blog in an effort to help you earn IU credits in over 37 countries. Not an IU student? Check it out anyway.CIS AbroadLike most other study abroad organizations, CIS Abroad is committed to giving you the best value in studying abroad, i.e. affordability, support, cultural immersion (沉浸) and academic relevance. What most people find unique about CIS is their La Vida Local culture series, which aims to help you see where the locals eat, shop and hang out.

Wanting to protect them, I started building houses for ants, using little pieces of wood and leaves. I then moved on to making little cups and saucers from silver foil (箔纸) for the magical creatures. When seeing my work, my mother told me that the smaller I made things, the bigger my name would become.As the years went by, my designs became more complicated. Making sculptures isn’t actually enjoyable. I sometimes work for 16 hours a day without breaks, and it takes me up tothree months to finish a sculpture. I have to hold my breath during the sculpting process.One time, a fly landed on a Cinderella carriage sculpture I was working on. The fly’s wings blew it away, and it was lost. I was heartbroken. Another time, I accidentally breathed in a microscopic Alice from Alice in Wonderland. Alice is now in the Wonderland forever. But it did give me the chance to make an even better one the second time around.My sculptures have taken me to incredible places. In 2012, I met the queen, giving her a crown on the head of a pin. In 2013, I received my first Guinness World Record for creating the smallest sculpture by hand, a 24- carat gold motorbike that fitted inside a hair. In 2017, I beat my record with a sculpture of a human fetus (胎儿) that measured 0. 078 mm by 0. 053 mm.I was diagnosed with autism (自闭症) as an adult. In school, my teachers had pointed me out as an example of failure; now, I see my autism as a gift. It’s pushed me to be the best I can be.I hold workshops in schools for neurodiverse children, sharing my story and helping them create their own miniature figures.The microscopic world has always been my happy place. I’ve tried to make bigger sculptures, but small- is best for me. We need to appreciate the little things in life. Small things can also be mighty, too.41．What drove the author to make tiny sculpture at the beginning?A．His interest in insects.B．His desire to make a name.C．His dream of setting a record.D．His awareness of wildlife protection. 42．Which of the following can best describe the author’s sculpting process?A．Eventful and enjoyable.B．Complex and frustrating.C．Money- wasting but entertaining.D．Time- consuming but fulfilling. 43．Which is NOT the theme of the author’s sculptures?A．Houses for ants B．Little cups and saucers.C．Fairy tales.D．Historical events.44．How does the author deal with his autism now?A．He receives medical treatment.B．He takes full advantage of it.C．He regards it as the source of failure.D．He shares it and asks help from others. 45．What message does the author mainly convey through the text?A．Great art comes at a cost of loss.B．Childhood experiences sculpt a career.C．Minor things in life can carry weight.D．Hard work contributes to great achievements.For decades, scientists thought of the brain as the most valuable and consequently most closely guarded part of the body. Locked safely behind the blood-brain barrier, it was broadly free of the harm of viruses and the battles started by the immune system (免疫系统). Then, about 20 years ago, some researchers began to wonder: is the brain really so separated from the body? The answer, according to a growing body of evidence, is no.The list of brain conditions that have been associated with changes elsewhere in the body is long and growing. Changes in the makeup of the microorganisms in the digestive system have been linked to disorders such as Parkinson’s disease. There is also a theory that infection during pregnancy could lead to brain diseases in babies.The effect is two-way. There is a lengthening list of symptoms not typically viewed as disorders of the nervous system, but the brain plays a large part in them. For example, the development of a fever is influenced by a population of nerve cells that control body temperature and appetite. Evidence is mounting that cancers use nerves to grow and spread.The interconnection between the brain and body has promising implications for our ability to both understand and treat illnesses. If some brain disorders start outside the brain, then perhaps treatments for them could also reach in from outside. Treatments that take effect through the digestive system, the heart or other organs, would be much easier and less risky than those that must cross the blood-brain barrier.It also works in the opposite direction. Study shows mice have healthier hearts after receiving stimulation to a brain area involved in positive emotion and motivation. Activation of the brain reward centre — called the ventral tegmental area (VTA) — seems to cause immune changes that contribute to it. Working out how this happens could help to destroy cancers, enhance responses to vaccines and even re-evaluate physical diseases that, for centuries, have not been considered as being psychologically driven.46．What do the researchers focus on about the brain?A．Its protecting system.B．Its exposure to diseases.C．Its controlling function.D．Its connection to the body.47．How does the author support his idea in paragraph 2?A．By explaining a theory.B．By providing examples.C．By making comparisons.D．By presenting cause and effect. 48．Which best describes treatments that do not cross the blood-brain barrier?A．Cheaper.B．More specific.C．Safer.D．More direct.49．What does the study suggest in the last paragraph?A．Brain health depends on immune changes.B．Brain stimulation leads to negative emotions.C．The brain can help enhance psychological health.D．The brain may be key to treating physical diseases.Lao Zi once said, “Care about what other people think and you will always be their prisoner. ”People-pleasing, or seeking self-worth through others’ approval, is unproductive and an exhausting way to go through life. Why do we allow what others think of us to have so much power over how we feel about ourselves? If it’s true that you can’t please all people all of the time, wouldn’t it make sense to stop trying?Unfortunately, sense often isn’t driving our behavior. For social beings who desire love and belonging, wanting to be liked, and caring about the effect we have on others, is healthy and allows us to make connections. However, where we get into trouble is when our self-worth is dependent on whether we win someone’s approval or not.This need to be liked can be traced back to when we were children and were completely dependent on others to take care of us: Small children are not just learning how to walk and communicate, they are also trying to learn how the world works. We learn about who we are and what is expected of us based on interactions with others so, to a four-year-old, if Mommy or Daddy doesn’t like him or her, there is the danger that they will abandon them. We need to understand that when we desperately want someone to approve of us, it’s being driven by that little kid part of us that is still afraid of being abandoned.As you become more capable of providing yourself with the approval you seek, your need for external approval will start to disappear, leaving you stronger, more confident, and yes, happierin your life. Jmagine how much time we lose each moment we restrain our authentic selves in an effort to be liked.If we base our worth on the opinions of others, we cheat ourselves of the power to shape our experiences and embrace life not only for others but also for ourselves, because ultimately, there is no difference. So embrace the cliché (老话) and love yourself as you’ll not regret it. 50．What can we conclude from Lao Zi’s quotation?A．We should see through other people’s attempt to make a prisoner of us.B．We can never really please other people even if we try as hard as we can.C．We can never be truly free if we care about others’ opinion of us.D．We should care about other people’s view as much as they care about our own. 51．What will happen if we base our self- worth on other people’s approval?A．Our desire to be loved will be fulledB．Our Identity as social beings will be affected.C．Our life will be unfruitful and exhausting.D．Our sense of self will be sharpened and enhanced.52．What may be the reason for our need to be liked or approved of?A．Our desperate longing for interactions with others.B．Our understanding of the workings of the world.C．Our knowledge about the pain of being abandoned.D．Our early childhood fear of being abandoned.53．What can we do when we become better able to provide ourselves with the desired approval?A．Enjoy a happier life.B．Exercise self- restraint.C．Receive more external approval.D．Strengthen our power of imagination. 54．What does the author advise us to do in the last paragraph?A．Embrace life for others.B．Love ourselves as we are.C．See our experiences as our wealth.D．Base our worth on others’ opinions.阅读下面短文，请根据短文后的要求答题。

But Chris Roh and other researchers at the California Institute of Technology found that when bees drop into bodies of water, they can use their wings toproduce little waves and slide toward land-like surfers who create and then ride their own waves.As with many scientific advances-IsaacNewton’s apple or Benjamin Franklin’s lightning bolt-Dr. Roh’sexperiment began with a walk. Passing Caltech’s Millikan Pond in 2016, he observed a bee on the water’s surface producing waves. He wondered how an insect known for flight could push itself through water.Dr. Roh and his co-worker, Morteza Gharib, used butterfly nets to collect localPasadenahoneybees and observed their surf-like movements. The researchers used a wire to restrict each bee’s bodily movement, allowing close examination of their wings. They found that the bee bends its wings at a 30-degree angle, pulling up water and producing a forward force. Bees get trapped on the surface because water is roughly three times heavier than air. But that weight helps to push the bee forward when its wings move quickly up and down. It’s a tough exercise for the bees, which the researchers guess could handle about 10 minutes of the activity.The researchers said the surf-like movement hasn’t been documented in other insects and most semiaquatic insects use their legs forpropulsion, which is known as water-walking. It may have evolved in bees, they-predicted.Dr. Roh and Dr. Gharib have imagined many practical applications for bees’ surfing. One plan is to use their observations to design robots able to travel across sky and sea. “This could be useful for search and rescues, or for getting samples of the surface of the ocean, if you can’t send a boat or helicopter,” Dr. Gharib said.8. What does the author intend to show by mentioningNewtonandFranklin?A. Roh’s admiration for them.B. Roh’s chance discovery about bees.C. Their outstanding talent for science.D. Their similar achievements in discovery.9. What plays the most vital role in a bee’s moving forward on water?A. The air weight.B. Its leg extension.C. The water movement.D. Its continuous wingbeat.10. What does the underlined word “propulsion” in Paragraph 4 mean?A. Fast flightB. Driving force.C. Pulling speed.D. Explosive power.11. What does the text mainly tell us?A. Honeybees can surf to safety.B. Bees help scientists make inventions.C. Insects can adapt to the environment.D. Nature is a helpful guide for discovery.DJanet Fein, aged 84, received her bachelor's degree from the University last week, having waited a long time for her chance to reach that goal.Growing up in the Bronx area ofNew York City, Fein worked at a dress manufacturer after graduating early at the age of 16. After getting married, she spent 18 years staying home with her children. She held several jobs through her life, including 20 years as a secretary at a hospital until her retirement at age 77.Fein has had a full life.

So, Fein took online classes to finish the last part of her degree requirements.Sheila Rollerson, Fein' scollege advisor, and Carol, the professor told the media that Fein never showed signs of giving up even with all of her difficulties. She would speak up a lot in class and it just made for a more interesting class.Fein has also inspired Renee Brown, one of Fein's caregivers. At 53, Renee plans to begin nursing school to further her career. “Renee, you can do it. If I can do it you can do it, and you will feel so good about it,” Brown remembers what Fein told her.12.
