I noticed an empty chair next to an elder, short man, whose hair was disorder. He was wearing an old hat and was alone. I asked if I might join him. He agreed quietly and I sat down to have my breakfast. We carefully began a conversation and spoke about a lot of things. We never introduced ourselves. I thought that he might have no money and not be able to afford something to eat. So as I rose to go back to the counter and buy a second cup of coffee. I asked, “May I get you something?”“A coffee would be nice.”Then I bought him a cup of coffee, we talked more, and he accepted another cup of coffee.

At 16, her second book, Demon in My View, also reached the bookstore. Several books later, the teenage writer still works away in her room, in which were shelves full of dark stories about vampires (吸血鬼)and witches (巫婆). Amelia Atwater-Rhodes is seen as America‟s finest teen writer and was named one of Teen People‟s “20 Teens Who will Change the World”.Born in 1984, she began making up stories when she was three years old. Amelia said: “I love stories and can make up stories before I was told enough to know how to write them down.” In her family, reading was great fun. “My parents encouraged me to read and to read anything I wanted, so long as I was reading,” she said. “They never stop what I read and never make meread the books I don‟t enjoy. Later, when I started writing, they never told me that I was …too young to do that‟. They never said it was impossible for me to get what I want. ”In her short but successful career, Amelia has tried different stories. But vampires were the first characters to really come alive in her work. From then on, she has developed a whole world, one which she always enjoys learning more about.Amelia‟s advice to the teen writers is: just do it! “I believe anything is possible. Don‟t give up on your dreams. Getting a book published is difficult but if I can do it, others can do it too. ”31、When can readers find the book, Demon in My View, in the bookstore?A.In 1984. B.In 1987. C.In 1998. D.In 2000.32、Why did Amelia begin to write stories?A.Her parents told her to do so.B.She was a born writer.C.She wanted to get the name “20 Teens Who will Change the World”.D.She wanted to start a successful career.33、Why are the shelves of books in her room important in her life?A.She needs books to fill her room.B.She liked to copy these wonderful books.C.Books can give her new ideas for her own stories.D.Books are interesting and enjoyable.34、Which is the meaning of the underlined sentence?A.I love stories but don‟t have enough stories to write down.B.I write stories and tell my stories to other people.C.I write my own stories before I learn how to do it in school.D.I wrote my stories first, my parents told me to do it second.35、Which is Amelia‟s parents‟ attitude (态度)?A.They are at her back and help her a lot.B.They encourage her and help her write some stories.C.They buy enough books for her and read these books for her.D.They never tell her that she is too young to read.The baby is just one day old and has not left hospital yet. She is quiet but alert(警觉). Theresearchers have placed a white card with two black spots on it twenty centimeters from her试卷第6页,共11页face. She stares at it carefully.A researcher removes the card and replaces it by another one, this time with the spots differently spaced. As the cards change from one to the other, her gaze (凝视)starts to lose its focus until a third card is presented. The third card has three black spots on it. Her gaze returns: she looks at it for twice as long as she did at the previous card. Can she tell that the number two is different from three, just 24 hours after coming into the world? Or do newborns simply prefer more to fewer?The same experiment, but with three spots shown before two, shows the same return of interest when the number of spots changes. Perhaps it is just the newness? When a little older babies were shown cards with pictures of objects (a comb, a key, an orange and so on), changing the number of objects had an effect separate from changing the objects themselves. Could it be the pattern that two things make, as opposed to three? No again.Babies paid more attention to squares moving randomly on a screen when their number changed from two to three, or three to two. The effect even crosses between senses. Babies who were repeatedly shown two spots became more excited when they then heard three drumbeats (鼓声)than when they heard just two; likewise (同样地)when the researchers started with drumbeats and moved to spots.36、The experiment described in Paragraph 1 is mainly about the baby‟s ______. A .sense of hearing B .sense of sight C .sense of touch D .sense of smell37、What does the underlined word it in paragraph 2 refer to?A .the cardB .the babyC .the combD .the key 38、According to the passage, babies have a strong sense of changing in ______. A .the size of cards B .the colour of pictures C .the shape of patterns D .the number of objects 39、Why did the researchers test the babies with drumbeats? A .To reduce the difficulty of the experiment. B .To see how babies recognize sounds. C .To carry their experiment further. D .To keep the babies‟ interest.40、Where does this passage probably come from?A.Science fiction. B.Children‟s literature.C.An advertisement. D.A science reportBostonIsabella Stewart Gardner Museum“Chairs”February 11--May 8, 2017Italian furniture expert Fausto Calderai and Indian photographer Dayanita Singh present an exhibition of chairs from the museum‟s collection and “chair photographs” from around the world presented in a Venetian-style hall housing world-famous masterpieces.For more information: New YorkThe Noguchi Museum“Noguchi and Graham”December 1, 2016--May 1, 2017Noguchi‟s long-term collaboration with dancer Martha Graham is regarded by many as a high point in the history of both modern dance and art.

When I went out, I discovered our elderly neighbor had fallen on her front steps. She was clearly in pain, so I helped her inside her house and settled here on the bed.I noticed her room was very narrow and dark. It was obvious she hadn't cleaned it for a long time. She insisted she didn't need an ambulance(救护车)and that someone would be around soon, so I left her with a bottle of water at her side.As I left I felt sad when I realized that we hadn't communicated with her, except a few smiles, for the past 18 months. She didn't know my name and I didn't know hers, and I hadn't even noticed that she hadn't been outside for weeks because of bad pain in her back.That weekend I visited my grandmother for her 80th birthday and noticed how clean and spacious her flat seemed in comparison to my neighbour's. My neighbour, as far as I knew, had no family regularly dropping by.When I returned home I went to visit her. Very grateful to see me, she explained she was okay. Yet, unable to bend down due to her back, her kitchen was filling with garbage that she was unable to take out by herself.We've become good friends and chat every second day. She keeps thanking me for my kindness, but I enjoy helping her. Now, every time I return from putting out her garbage, collecting her mail or just chatting, I feel a deep sense of satisfaction and peace.(1)What happened when they were preparing to go away?A The daughter was crying for help.B The daughter was still sleeping inbed.

They believe this is because evolution (生物进化) has biologically made children be wary of plants.Due to susceptibility (敏感性) to illness or injury in the early years of life, the body has designed an inner defence mechanism (内部保护机制) that limits a child's contact with plants, they think. The researchers believe this is why children turn their noses up when faced with a plate of broad beans.The findings are published in a paper by Dr Annie E Wertz and Dr Karen Wynn, both psychologists at Yale University.They wrote, "Throughout human evolution... plants have been important in human's life. Yet, for all of these benefits, plants have always caused very real dangers.""Plants produce toxins (毒素) as defences that can be harmful, or even deadly. Some plants also produce physical defences, such as thorns(荆棘)can damage tissues (组织) and cause effects over the whole body."They added, "We predicted that babies may have behavioural strategies that reduce their exposure to dangers caused by plants by minimizing their physical contact with plants."To test their theory, the researchers studied how children aged 8 to 18 months old reacted when presented with a variety of objects. It took much longer for children to grab plants; objects that were pretended to look like plants also caused a slow response time.For parents attempting to spoon some peas into the mouth of their child, this finding should come as welcome relief.(1)The underlined word "they" in Paragraph 3 refers to ______.A the parentsB the researchersC the babiesD the plants(2)What does the underlined word "wary" in the third paragraph mean?A Curious.B Afraid.C Tired.D Certain.(3)What did early humans probably do in order to keep away from illness or injury?A They choose to make more man-made things.B They didn't allowed their children to touch plants.C They chose to have little contact with plants.D They tried very hard to escape from the past.(4)What was plants' role in early human's life?A They were important, in spite of danger.B They reacted badly to human evolution.C They contributed to the most deaths and illness.D They developed human physical defenses against dangers.(5)What's the passage mainly about?A Why some plants are harmful.B How humans react to plants.C Why children don't like to eat greens.D When children from behavioural strategies.5.Horatio Spafford, who was born in 1828, was a wealthy Chicago lawyer with a promising career, a beautiful home, a wife, four daughters and a son.At the very height of his financial and professional success, Horatio and his wife, Anna, suffered the loss of their young son.

People afraid of speaking in public are su ffering from “Stage Fright”. Stage fright makes a person 36 . In that 37 it can make one’s mind go blank and 38 what one ought to say, or to act. Actors, musicians, dancers, lawyers, even TV show hosts suffered from stage fright at one time or another. Diana Nichols is an expert in helping people free from stage fright at a medical center in New York City. She helps actors learn to 39 themselves. Miss Nichols says some people have alwaysbeen 40 to perform before the audience. Others, she says, develop stage fright after a terrible experience.She offers them advice to control the fear. One way is to smile before going onto the stage. Taking two deep breaths also helps. Deep breathing helps you get control of your body.Miss Nichols asks her 41 to tell themselves that their speech or performance does not have to be 42 . It’s all right to make a mistake. She tells them they should not be too nervous while they are performing. It is important that they should continue to perform while she is helping them. After each performance, they discuss what happened and find out what 43 helped and what did not. As they perform more and more, they will 44 less and less. Miss Nichols says the aim is only to reduce stage fright, not to smooth it away 45 . This is because a little stage fright makes a person more careful, and improves the performance.36.

Post- it Notes, the pieces of paper that you can fasten almost anywhere and then remove without leaving any sign that they were there, are an example of such an invention.Post-it Notes were invented 20 years ago by Art Fry, a scientist at 3M Company. The idea came from a frustrating experience while singing. Fry used pieces of paper as bookmarks to mark the places in his book of songs, but these bookmarks were always falling out. He knew he needed a bookmark that would stay where he put it without damaging the pages.Around that time, Fry heard that his workmate, Dr. Spence Silver had created a new adhesive (粘合剂) which was special because it was sticky, but not too sticky. It was strong enough to hold papers together, but weak enough to not tear the paper when it was removed. Fry saw that the new adhesive could help solve his bookmark problem. One morning, Fry put some of the adhesive on the top of a piece of paper. Just as he hoped, it made a perfect bookmark.Later, Fry realized that his new invention can also be used as a great bookmark. He came to this idea when he wrote a note on one of his new “bookmarks” and attached it to a report he was going to give to a workmate. Soon, the workmate asked Fry for more samples of his invention so that they could use the new type of notes themselves.When some salespeople at 3M went to offices and showed workers just how helpful the new type of notes could be, they immediately received many orders. As more and more people discovered how useful Post-it Notes could be, the product took off.46.

To our surprise, the little boy selected limping dog and said, “What’s wrong with that little dog?”The store owner explained that a doctor had examined the little dog and had discovered it don’t have a hip socket(膝盖骨). It would always limp.The little boy became excited, “That’s the dog I want to buy.”The store owner said, “No, you don’t want to buy that little dog. If you really want him, I will just give him to you.”The little boy got quite upset. He l ooked straight into the store owner’s eyes, pointing his finger, and said, “I don’t want you to give him to me. That little dog is worth as much as all the other dogs and I’ll pay full price. In fact, I will give you $2.37 now, and 50cents a month until I have paid all the money for him. ”The store owner said, “You really don’t want to buy this little dog. He is never going to be able to run and jump and play with you like the other dogs.”To his surprise, the little boy revealed a badly, disabled left leg supported by a big metal brace.

However, whether you are on the mountains, in the waves, or on the grassland, you should be aware that your choice of sports might have great influence on the environment.Some sports are resource-hungry. Golf, as you may know, eats up not only large areas of countryside, but also tons of water. Besides, all sorts of chemicals and huge amounts of energy are used to keep its course in good condition. This causes major environmental effects. For example, in the dry areas of Portugal and Spain, golf is often responsible for serious water shortage in some local areas. There are many environment-friendly sports. Power walking is one of them that you could take up today. You don’t need anything special except a good pair of shoes; and you don’t have to think about resources and your purse. Simple and free, power walking can also keep you fit. If you walk regularly, it will be good for your heart and bones. Experts say that 20 minutes of power walking daily can make you feel less anxious, sleep well and have better weight control.Whatever sport you take up, you can make it greener by using environment-friendly equipment and buying products made from recycled materials. But the final goal should be “green gyms”. They are better choices than traditional health clubs and modern sports centers. Members of green gym play sports outdoors, in the countryside or other open spaces. There is no special requirement for you to start your membership. And best of all, it’s free.56.

In fact, researchers say, running in cold weather 4 improve one’s performance(身体机能). Many people say running in winter is difficult. Two reasons are the low temperatures and bitter winds. Yet many runners might find 5 easier than running in hot weather. That could be because lower temperatures reduce stress on the body. When you run in cold weather, your heart rate is 6 than in warmer conditions. Besides, the body needs less water 7 a cold day than in warm weather. This information comes from John Brewer, a sports scientist at St. Mary’s University in London. Brewer says every movement runners make produces heat. He explains that one way in which we lose heat 8 by sweating , and that the body also loses heat by transporting the blood to the surface of the skin. But sweating puts much strain(张力)on the heart, particularly in hot conditions because it is 9 harder to lose heat when the external environment is warm 10 .In addition, running in higher temperatures results in faster heart rates. Scientists found, 11 , that heart rates were about 6 percent higher in the hotter conditions. However, running in cooler temperatures has 12 advantages. One is that the body does not have to work so hard to pump blood to the 13 surface in cooler temperatures, which means running requires less energy. Several websites note that the most important thing for people 14 run in cold conditions is to wear the right clothing. And especially, keeping as dry as possible is very important 15 exercising in low temperatures. (294 words)( )1.A. leave B. leaving C. left D. to leave( )2.A. But B. Therefore C.

Everyone needs friends. We all like to feel close to someone. It is nice to have a friend to talk, laugh and do many things with. Sure, there are times when we need to be alone. We don't always want people around. But we would feel lonely if we never had a friend.No two people are the same. Sometimes friends don't get along well. That doesn't meanthey no longer like each other. Most of the time, they will go on being friends. Sometimes friends move away. Then we feel very sad. We miss them very much. But we can call them and write to them. Maybe we would never see them again. And we can make new friends. It is surprising to find out how much we like new people when we get to know them. Families sometimes name their children after a close friend. Many places are named after men and women, if they are friendly to people in a town. Some libraries are named in this way. So are some schools. We think of these people when we go to these places.There is more good news for people, if they have friends. These people live longer than those people who do not have friends.

Jill St. John who has the highest score on this list was a major American film actress during the 1960's and1970's. Jill was chosen to the University of California at the age of 14.Scientists have estimated(估算)the IQ scores that some famous historical people might have got. This was done by looking at their work and their ideas and the way they put them together.

My house is made of wood, glass and stone. It is also made of software.If you come to visit, you'll probably be surprised when you come in. Someone will give you an electronic PIN to wear. This PIN tells the house who and where you are. The house uses this information to give you what you need. When it's dark outside, the PIN turns on the lights nearest you, and then turns them off as you walk away fromthem. Music moves with you too. If the house knows your favorite music, it playsit. The music seems to be everywhere, but in fact other people in the house hear different music or no music. If you get a telephone call, only the nearest telephone rings.Of course, you are also able to tell the house if you want something. There is a home control console (控制台), a small machine that turns things on and off around you.The PIN and the console are new ideas, but they are in fact like many things we have today. If you want to go to a movie, you need a ticket. If I give you my car keys, you can use my car. The car works for you because you have the keys. My house works for you because you wear the PIN or hold the console.I believe that several years from now on, most new homes will have the systems that I've put in my house. The systems will probably be even bigger and better than the ones I'veput in today.I like to try new ideas. I know that some of my ideas will work better than others. But I hope that one day I will stop thinking of these systems as new, and ask myself instead, "How did I live without them? "(1) The writer's house is NOT made of________.A bricksB woodC glassD software.(2) What does the passage mainly discuss?________A How to develop a new system.B The function of the PIN.C A home for the future.D Easy life in the future..(3) What is the writer's purpose of writing the fourth paragraph?________A To let readers know why his ideas are new.B To explain what the functions of the PIN and the console are.C To explain the importance of the PIN and theconsole. D To let readers know how special his house is..(4) The writer's new house is different from ordinary ones mainly because________.A it has your favourite music following youB you can make a telephone callanywhere C the writer is able to change his new idea into practice D it has been controlled by computers.(5) What is the writer most likely to be according to the passage?________A An IT expert.B A famous engineer.C A game player.D An experienced teacher.五.阅读填空(共1小题,每小题5分,满分5分)读短文及选项A-E,选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项,并在答题卡上将该项涂黑.7.

(A)One morning more than thirty years ago, I entered the Track Kitchen, a restaurant where everyone from the poor to the most powerful came for breakfast. I noticed an empty chair next to an elder, short man, whose hair was disorder. He was wearing an old hat and was alone. I asked if I might join him. He agreed quietly and I sat down to have my breakfast.We carefully began a conversation and spoke about a lot of things. We never introduced ourselves. I thought that he might have no money and not be able to afford something to eat. So as I rose to go back to the counter and buy a second cup of coffee. I asked, “May I get you something?”“A coffee would be nice.”Then I bought him a cup of coffee, we talked more, and he accepted another cup of coffee. Finally, I rose to leave, wished him well, and went to the exit. At the door I met one of my friends. He asked,“How did you get to know Mr. Galbreath?”“Who?”“The man you were si tting with. He is chairman of the Board of Churchill Downs.”I could hardly believe it. I was talking, buying coffee, offering a free breakfast, and feeling pity for one of the world's richest and most powerful men!My few minutes with Mr. Galbreath changed my life. Now I try to treat everyone with respect, no matter who I think they are, and to meet another human being with kindness and sincerity.26.What does the underlined word in Paragraph 1 “disorder”mean?A.unfriendly B.untidy C.gentle D.kind27.The author bought coffee for the old man because ______.A.he thought the old man was poor B.he wanted to start a conversationC.he wanted to show his politeness D.he would like to thank the old man28.How did the author probably feel after he talked with his friend?A.Proud.

At 16, her second book, Demon in My View, also reached the bookstore. Several books later, the teenage writer still works away in her room, in which were shelves full of dark stories about vampires (吸血鬼)and witches (巫婆). Amelia Atwater-Rhodes is seen as America’s finest teen writer and was named one of Teen People’s “20 Teens Who will Change the World”.Born in 1984, she began making up stories when she was three years old. Amelia said: “I love stories and can make up stories before I was told enough to know how to write them down.”In her family, reading was grea t fun. “My parents encouraged me to read and to read anything I wanted, so long as I was reading,” she said. “They never stop what I read and never make me read the books I don’t enjoy. Later, when I started writing, they never told me that I was ‘too young to do that’. They never said it was impossible for me to get what I want. ”In her short but successful career, Amelia has tried different stories. But vampires were the first characters to really come alive in her work. From then on, she has developed a whole world, one which she always enjoys learning more about.Amelia’s advice to the teen writers is: just do it! “I believe anything is possible.

She is quiet but alert(警觉). The researchers have placed a white card with two black spots on it twenty centimeters from her face. She stares at it carefully.A researcher removes the card and replaces it by another one, this time with the spots differently spaced. As the cards change from one to the other, her gaze(凝视)starts to lose its focus until a third card is presented. The third card has three black spots on it. Her gaze returns: she looks at it for twice as long as she did at the previous card. Can she tell that the number two is different from three, just 24 hours after coming into the world? Or do newborns simply prefer more to fewer?The same experiment, but with three spots shown before two, shows the same return of interest when the number of spots changes. Perhaps it is just the newness? When a little older babies were shown cards with pictures of objects (a comb, a key, an orange and so on), changing the number of objects had an effect separate from changing the objects themselves. Could it be the pattern that two things make, as opposed to three? No again.Babies paid more attention to squares moving randomly on a screen when their number changed from two to three, or three to two. The effect even crosses between senses. Babies who were repeatedly shown two spots became more excited when they then heard three drumbeats (鼓声)than when they heard just two; likewise(同样地)when the researchers started with drumbeats and moved to spots.36.The experiment described in Paragraph 1 is mainly about the baby’s ______.A.sense of hearing B.sense of sight C.sense of touch D.sense of smell37.What does the underlined word it in paragraph 2 refer to?A.the card B.the baby C.the comb D.the key38.According to the passage, babies have a strong sense of changing in ______.A.the size of cards B.the colour of pictures C.the shape of patternsD.the number of objects39.Why did the researchers test the babies with drumbeats?A.To reduce the difficulty of the experiment.B.To see how babies recognize sounds.C.To carry their experiment further.D.To keep the babies’interest.40.Where does this passage probably come from?A.Science fiction.
