I feel there are a number of reasons for this.Some people blame the fact that we are surrounded （包围） by shops selling unhealthy, fatty foods, such as fried chicken and ice cream, at low prices. This has turned out a whole generation of grown-ups who seldom cook a meal for themselves. If there were fewer of these restaurants, then probably children would buy less take-away food.There is another argument that blames parents for allowing their children to become overweight.I agree with this, because good eating habits begin early in life, long before children start to visit fast food shops. If children are given fried chicken and chocolate rather than healthy food, or are always allowed to choose what they eat, they will go for sweet and salty foods every time, and this will carry on throughout their lives.There is a third reason for this situation. Children these days take very little exercise. They do not walk to school. When they get home, they sit in front of the television or their computers and play computer games. Not only is this an unhealthy pastime（消遣）, it also gives them time to eat more unhealthy food．What they need is to go outside and play active games or sports.The above are the main reasons for this problem, and therefore we have to encourage young people to be more active, as well as steering them away from fast food shops and bad eating habits. 56．According to the text, what kind of children may eat more unhealthy food?A．Those who often take exercise.B．Those who often watch television.C．Those who often have meals at home.D．Those who often walk to school.57．The author thinks that children are becoming overweight becauseA．their parents often cook meals for themB．they are too busy to go out and playC．they can' t choose what to eatD．there are too many fast food shops around58．The word "steering" underlined in the last sentence most probably means _______.A．forcing B．guiding C．driving D．moving59．The main purpose of the text is to _________.A．tell a story B．provide facts C．give advice D．compare opinionsBTeens don't understand the big fuss(小题大做). As the first generation to grow up in a wired world, they hardly know a time when computers weren't around, and they eagerly catch the chance to spend hours online, chatting with friends. So what?But researchers nationwide are increasingly worried that teens are becoming isolated（孤寂）, less skillful at person-to-person relationships, and perhaps numb（麻木） to the cheatings that are so much a part of the e-mail world. "and a teen's sense of self and values may be changed in a world where personal connections can be limitless," said Sherry Turkle.Another researcher, Robert Kraut, said he's worried about the "opportunity costs（机会成本）" of so much online time for youths. He found that teens who used computers, even just a few hours a week, showed increased signs of loneliness and social isolation. "Chatting on line may be better than watching television, but it's worse than hanging out（闲逛） with real friends," he said.Today's teens, however, don't see anything strange in the fact that the computer takes up a central place in their social lives, "School is busy and full of pressure. There's almost no time to just hang out." said Parker Rice, "Talking online is just catch up time."Teens say they feel good about what they say online or taking the time to think about a reply. Some teens admit that asking someone for a date, or breaking up, can be easier in message form, though they don't want to do so. But they insist there's no harm.60. The researchers argue that___ ．A．teens may develop a different sense of valuesB．nothing is wrong with teens' chatting onlineC．teens can manage their social connectionsD．spending hours online does much good to teens61. Teens think that talking online can help them __ __．A．use computers properly B．improve their school workC．develop an interest in social skills D．reduce their mental pressures62. The text mainly deals with __ _．A．teens' pleasant online experience B．teens' computer skills and school workC．the effects of the computer world on teens D．different opinions on teens' chatting online63. The purpose of the text is to ___ _．A．describe computer research results B．draw attention to teens' computer habits C．suggest ways to deal with problem teens D．discuss problems teens haveCIt's great fun to explore (探索) new places—it feels like an adventure, even when you know you're not the first to have been there. But make sure not to get lost or waste time going round in circles Do the map reading if you're being driven somewhere. It'll be easier if you keep turning the map so it follows the direction you' re traveling in. Keep looking ahead so that you can give the driver lots of warning before having to make a turn, or you'll have to move to the back seat.Get a group of friends together and go exploring. You'll need a good map, a compass (指南针), a raincoat, a cell phone to call for help in case you get lost, and a bit of spare cash for emergencies (应急现金). Tell someone where you're going before you set out and let them know what time you expect to be back. The test is in not getting lost, not in seeing how fast you can go, so always stick together, waiting for slower friends to catch up.See if your school or a club organizes orienteering activities, in which you need a map and a compass to find your way. This can be done as a sport, with teams trying to find the way from A to B (and B to C, etc. ) in the fastest time, or simply as a spare-time activity. Either way, it's not only good fun, but a great way to keep fit.64. Sitting beside the driver, you should ________.A. direct the driver when necessaryB. look ahead to see where there's a turnC. move to the back seat if feeling uncomfortableD. keep looking at the map to find a place to go to65. Why do you need to tell someone your exploration plan before setting out?A. To get information when in danger.B. To be saved in case of an accident.C. To share the fun with him/her in exploration.D. To tell him/her what's going on with the group members.66. Orienteering activities can ________.A. make people work fastB. help people stay healthyC. help people organize other activitiesD. make people get prepared for sports67. The text mainly talks about________.A. the fun of explorationB. what to bring for explorationC. the way to use the map in explorationD. how to prevent getting lost in explorationDSome people make you feel comfortable when they are around. You spend an hour with them and feel as if you have known them half your life. These people have something in common. And once we know what it is, we can try to do it ourselves.How is it done? Here are several skills that good talkers have. If you follow the skills, they'll help you put people at their ease, and make friends with them quickly.First of all, good talkers ask questions. Almost anyone, no matter how shy he is, will answer a question. One well-known businesswoman says, "At business lunches, I always ask people what they did that morning. It's a common question, but it will get things going." From there you can move on to other matters-sometimes to really personal questions. And how he answers will let you know howfar you can go.Second, once good talkers have asked questions, they listen to the answers. This point seems clear, but it isn't. Your questions should have a point and help to tell what sort of person you are talking to. And to find out, you really have to listen carefully and attentively. Real listening at least means some things. First it means not to change the subject of conversation. If someone sticks to one topic, you can take it as a fact that he's really interested in it. Real listening also means not just listening to words, but to tones of voice. If the voice sounds dull, then, it's time for you to change the subject.Finally, good talkers know well how to deal with the occasion of parting. If you're saying good-bye, you may give him a firm handshake and say, "I've really enjoyed meeting you." If you want to see that person again, don't keep it a secret. Let people know what you feel, and they may walk away feeling as if they've known you half their life68. Asking questions might be a quite good and suitable way _______.A. for you to make more and more new friendsB. to begin your business talksC. to get the conversation going smoothlyD. for you to make a deep and lasting impression on others69. After having asked somebody a question, it'll be polite of you to _______.A. make clear what kind of person he isB. listen to his reply attentivelyC. wait quietly and patiently for his answerD. go on asking him more questions70. Generally speaking, good talkers are persons who _______.A. are good at making any topic interestingB. never talk too much or too littleC. always speak in a gentle wayD. know how and when they should change the topic ofthe talk71. If you really take delight in meeting someone again, _______.A. you may take him as your lifelong trustworthy friendB. it seems necessary for you to let him know itC. it's proper for you to give him a second handshakeD. it'll be helpful for you to have further understanding of himEWhile all my classmates seem to be crazy about a one-way ticket to Mars(火星), I’d rather say Mars is totally unsuitable for human existence. People won’t have enough food supplies there, and the terrible environment would make it impossible for them to live a long life. Besides, the journey won’t be safe. Can anybody explain to me just why people would go to Mars, never to return?Steve Minear,UK Here are the things you can think of: the desire to explore a foreign and unique environment, the excitement of being the first humans to open up a new world, the expectation of fame and glory……For scientist there is another reason. Their observations and research will probably lead to great scientific achievements.Donal Trollop,Canada There are already too many people on the Earth. I think that sometime before the end of the century, there will be a human colony(殖民地) on Mars. It will happen when people finally realize that two-way trips to the red planet Mars are necessary. Most of the danger of space flight is in the launches(发射) and landings. Cutting the trip home would therefore reduce the danger of accidents, save a lot of money, and open the way to building an everlasting human settlement in another world. Enough supplies can be sent on ahead. And every two years more supplies and more people will be sent to the new colony. Mars has all the materials for a colony to produce or make everything it needs, and Mars is far more pleasant than the other planets in the outer space.Paul Davies,USA72. The main purpose of Steve Minear’s writing is .A.to report his classmates’discussionB.to invite an answer to his questionC.to explain the natural state of MarsD.to show his agreement on going to Mars73. Which of the following best states Donal Trollop’s idea?A.There is a plan to send humans to Mars.B.There are many reasons for going to Mars.C.Scientists become famous by doing research on Mars.D.It is possible to build an Earth-like environment on Mars.74. Paul Davies points out that .A.humans need only a one-way ticket to MarsB.two-way trips to Mars will be made safe soonC.it is easy to reduce the danger and cost of flights to MarsD.it is cheap to build an everlasting human settlement on Mars75. What does Paul Davies think of human existence on Mars?A.Humans will have to bring all they need from the Earth.B.Humans will find Mars totally unsuitable for living.C.Humans can produce everything they need.D.Humans can live longer in the colony on Mars.第四部分任务型阅读（共10小题，满分10分）There is an English saying: “laughter is best medicine.” Until recently, few people took the saying seriously. Now however, doctors have begun to look into laughter and the effects it has on the human body. They have found that laughter really can improve people’s health.Tests were carried out to study the effects of laughter on the body. People watched funny films while doctors checked their hearts, blood pressure, breathing and muscles. It was found that laughter had similar effects to physical exercise. It increases blood pressure, the heart beating and breathing; it also works several groups of muscles in the face, the stomach, and even the feet. If laughter exercises the body, it must be beneficial.Other tests have shown that laughter appears to be able to reduce the effect of pain on the body. In one experiment doctors produced pain in groups of students who listened to different radio programmer. The group that tolerated the pain for the longest time was the groups which listened to a funny programmer. The reason why laughter can reduce pain seems to be that it helps to produce a kind of chemicals in the brain which diminish both stress and pain.As a result of these discoveries, some doctors in the United States now hold laughter clinics, in which they help to improve their patients’ condition by encouraging them to laugh. They have found that even if their patients do not really feel like laughing, making them smile is enough to produce beneficial effects similar to those caused by laughter.LaughterAs a proverb goes, “Laughter is the best (76)___________”.Doctors have found that laughter really can improve people’s (77)_________.Some different tests conducted by doctors.Some doctors carried out some tests to study the (78)________ of laughter on one’s (79)__________.While doctors checks their heart, blood pressure and so forth, people were asked to watch (80)_________films. As a result, it (81)______heart beating andblood-pressure.Other tests showed laughter is able to (82)_______the effects of pain.Laughter helps produce a kind of(83)______ in the brain which can(84)________both stress and pain.Doctors hold laughter clinics in order to improve patient’s (85)________.第五部分书面表达（满分25分）你看到班上有部分同学不自己独立完成作业而是抄袭他人的作业，针对这种现象，请你以“My opinion on copying other’s homework”为题谈谈你自己的看法。

It was why Rowan’s mother, Julie Van Stone, said Joseph joined the Navy and w ent to MIT to get two Master’s degrees.While at school in Boston, he would often write to Rowan. Even when he left school and was driving back to Colorado, he would send postcards from each state he stopped in. Those postcards were sent in 2007. “I reme mber him saying he had sent 5 or 6, but Rowan had only got 3 or 4 in the mail. But I never thought anything of it,” Van Stone said.Those postcards and pictures are priceless memories for Van Stone and her son, especially after Joseph passed away from a rare brain disease. Rowan never had a chance to say goodbye. But, on Saturday, just days before thetwo-year anniversary of Joseph’s death, a postcard arrived in the mail. It arrived on March 11, 2021. The message read：“Hello from Pennsylvania. I love you,and I miss you so much. See you soon. Love, Daddy.”Neither he nor his mother knows how it happened, and they may never know. But, they have their own ideas why. “I feel like that was the final goodbye that he didn’t get to say,” Van Stone said. Van Stone says Joseph’s last words to her before he died were：“Everything is a circle. We will see each other again. All that matters is love.”4．What did Rowan’s dad do to make his son live well？A．He got many Master’s Degrees.B．He became a soldier in Navy.C．He kept writing to his son. D．He said goodbye to his son.5．When Rowan only received 3 or 4 of postcards, Van Stone ________.A．paid little attention to that B．let Joseph stop sending postcardsC．drove back to Colorado D．wrote to Rowan every year6．How long did it take for the last postcard to reach Rowan？A．2 years. B．5 years. C．6 years.D．8 years.7．Where did Rowan’s dad send the last postcard？A．In Boston. B．In Colorado. C．In Pennsylvania. D．In New York.CYou may not know a lot of people when you start high school. Even if you know some freshmen, you still feel nervous that you don’t know any upper-class men and teachers. How are you going to make friends among this sea of unknown faces？Most high schools hold a freshman orientation before school actually starts, which is helpful not only becauseyou learn your way around the building and get to meet some of your teachers, but also because you get to meet fellow freshmen. That way, when you show up on your first day of school, you may already recognize a few familiar faces.When you talk to your new classmates, you’ll probably find that a lot of them are feeling just like you are. They’re all new to the school and don’t know what to expect. Talking about a common concern with them can help you develop friendships.The work in high school is something freshmen are probably worried about. The work in high school builds on what you learned in middle school, giving you a more advanced knowledge of many subjects. So you may find you have more work to do or that it’s a bit more challenging. If you ever find your work too difficult, teachers can give you extra help.High school also has more extracurricular activities than middle school did such as clubs, music and theater groups and sports teams. This is a good time to explore your interests and try new things.High school gives you the chance to learn how to manage your time, to develop your social skills and interests, and more importantly to be more independent and responsible.8．What does the underlined word “orientation” mean in Paragraph 2？A．Training. B．Game. C．Discussion. D．Examination.9．What are freshmen probably worried about？A．The learning task. B．The ability to make friends.C．The relationship with teachers. D．The freshman orientation.10．Extracurricular activities mainly help students ________.A．build up healthy bodies B．develop friendshipsC．develop their interests D．improve their learning ability11．This passage is written for ________.A．freshmen at high school B．freshmen’s parentsC．middle school students D．upper-classmen in high schoolDAmericans think that everything we British people say sounds smart. We think that they sound low-class, but secretly we think they sound cool. These are just old beliefs about British and American English, but there is some truth in them.What is certainly true is that the differences between British and American English continue to interest us.When the US was only about 20 years old, people were already saying that British accents sounded more intelligent，according to Erin Moore’s book That’s Not English：Britishisms, Americanisms, and What Our English Says About Us.However, there are many different accents in Britain-Moore says the UK may have just as many regional accents as the US, even though the population is almost one-fifth the size. In the UK, accents have a lot to do with class, but to many Americans, even an accent that British people think is “low class” is thought of as in telligent and better, according to MPR News.American slang(俚语) has been part of British people’s vocabulary for a long time-the number of American television, movies and music enjoyed in the UK means that British people have been using words like “cool” and “awesome” for years now. But sometimes words from the UK ma ke it to the US-like “gobsmacked”.“Gobsmacked” started as slang from northern England. “Gob” means mouth, so the word means “surprised as if someone smacked you in the mouth”. Reality television brought it to the US, Moore said. When the singer Susan Boyle became famous for her unlikely great singing voice on the show Britain’s Got Talent, she used it all the time. “I’m gobsmacked,” she repeated, and it got popular.“Americans love a colorful piece of slang as much as anyone else,” said Moore. And this is just one example of how Britons and Americans can leave each other “gobsmacked” with their different types of English!12．What do American people think of British English？A．Cool. B．Low-class. C．Intelligent. D．Interesting.13．What can we know from the passage？A．There are more accents in Britain than in the US.B．The UK is a large country with a small population.C．American slang is the most important part of British people’s vocabulary.D．In the UK, people of different classes speak differently.14．The word “gobsmacked” became widely used because of ________.A．MPR News and the USB．Erin Moore and northern EnglandC．Susan Boyle and Britain’s Got TalentD．Reality television and American slang15．What is the best title for the passage？A．American slang and British slangB．British people and American peopleC．British accents and American accentsD．Differences between British and American English其次节七选五（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）依据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。
福建省厦门一中2020-2021学年高一上学期期中考试英语试题 Word版含答案
2020-2021上学期期中考厦门一中高一一、阅读理解AAs each semester begins, my colleague greets his students wearing a jacket and tie.“You make only one first impression, " he says. So, while the rest of the semester he teaches class in his usual, more casual clothes, the first week he presents a different image.His thought is that students will remember their encounter positively and more readily think highly of him as the semester goes on because that favorable first impression has an influence on them. The big influence of first impressions is related to the halo effect, where the perception of the positive qualities in one thing or part gives rise to the perception of similar qualities in related things or in the whole.Here is an example: You meet a friendly person at a party and later are asked to collect money for a worthy cause. You call that person because you think she will make a contribution. In reality, there is no connection between being pleasant and being generous. Yet the halo effect leads you to think that the two are related.The halo effect is powerful, but is it questionable whether it matters much in long-term relationships, such as that between teachers and students? While dressing up may make students think the teacher must know his subject matter because he creates a professional first impression, the effect wears thin if the person turns out to be a poor teacher after all.First impressions matter but they don't have the final word. Facts speak louder. If you had never seen or heard of Einstein, the first time you saw him your impression would most likely be negative. Now his face is connected with genius, not madness because he is the person who has come to define what genius is.The problem is that few of us are Einstein and we often don't get the chance to change a negative first impression.（）21. In the author's eyes, the halo effect_________.A. is surprisingly powerfulB. may affect our judgment of othersC. matters more in the long runD. makes some teachers irresponsible（）22. The author uses the example of Einstein to show the importance of________.A. appearanceB. impressionsC. truthD. fairness（）23. The author seems to advise readers________.A. to mind their first impressionsB. not to judge a book by its coverC. not to follow others’ judgmentD. to pay no attention to the halo effectBHe must have had that nice window seat all the way from London. An Indian, he looked under 40, medium height, slim and wore a suit. I got an aisle seat next to him. I looked at him and tried to smile as I sat down. But there was a blank, distant look that made me stop mid-smile. One of those, I thought.Each time I take a flight, I try to chat with a fellow passenger. Most people are responsive when they’re alone at 40,000 feet. But the man wearing the suit on my left was a puzzle. One of those non-resident Indians, I thought. What do you lose if you just smiled at a fellow human being? Most of the time, he stared fixedly at the seat in front of him. Why are some people so full of themselves?When the stewardess brought lunch, the unfriendly man had his eyes shut. She gave me a should-I-wake-him-up look. I didn’t say anything, and he didn’t get his lunch. Serves him right. He soon woke u p and saw me eat. But he didn’t ask for his meal. He could just have pressed a button.That’s his problem.We still have almost two hours of flying left. I read a magazine. I try to play a video game. I listen to music. He does nothing. At times our eyes m eet, but he isn’t all there. He’s like no other passenger I’ve ever sat next to. By the time our jet lands in Mumbai, I find his presence almost uncomfortable. As we taxi down the runway, I hear the man speak for the first time—on his mobile phone. He seem s to be discussing his connecting flight. About somebody receiving him… Just before the aircraft comes to a halt, he’s the first to stand up. “Excuse me,” he says to me. “May I leave? I can’t miss my connecting flight.”Hmm…! I get up to make way for him when he goes on mechanically, “My wife and child died in a road accident inDelhi.” I’m shocked by his words. Suddenly, everything falls in place.Despite his terrible loss and the sufferings he has been enduring, he was calm, controlled throughout. And, maybe, in the midst of his soul-crushing sorrow, he didn’t want to burden a stranger with his pain.（）24. How does the author find the passenger in a suit sitting close by during the flight? A. Dangerous. B. Angry. C. Troublesome. D. Dull.（）25. Which statement is true according to the text?A. The author was guilty of not informing the man of the lunch service.B. The man showed little interest in the author’s attempt to make acquaintances.C. The man refused to talk on the plane because he had trouble connecting the flights.D. A car crash cost the man his beloved family in Mumbai.（）26. What does the underlined sentence mean?A. Everything goes wrong to a certain extent.B. The man’s strangeness has an understandable reason.C. Everyone on board feels sorry for mistaking the man.D. All passengers make way for the man.（）27. What lessons did the author learn in the end?A. Never assume until you walk in the other’s shoes.B. Nothing is so certain as the unexpected.C. What’s don e cannot be undone.D. Let bygones be bygones.CFor some people, walking or running outdoors is a great way to work out. What may not be so pleasant is seeing trashall over the ground. Well, some people are doing something about it. They are plogging!“Plogging” began in Sweden. The name combines the Swedish word “plocka,” which means to pick up, and the word Jogging, which means to run slowly. A Swedish man named Erik, started the movement in 2016. On the World EnvironmentDay website, Erik says that he moved to Stockholm from a small community in northern Sweden each day he would ride his bike to work. Concerned about the amount of trash and litter he saw each day on his way to work, he took matters into his own hands.Plogging, by that term, may have officially begun in Sweden. But many people who exercise outdoors have been doing this for years. Take Jeff Horowitz for example. He is a personal trainer in Washington, D.C. He often picks up trash while running outside. He even has turned it into a game;h e will try to pick up the trash without stopping. “I didn’t know it was a thing really. This is just my personal ethics (道德标准), where I go for a run and if I happen to see a piece of garbage lying around and it’s within reach — it is a kind of a little test for me to see if I can grab it and throw it in a near trash can without stopping. And that way, I think, it gives me a little exercise and a little focus for my run. And it helps clean up the neighborhood,” he announced.Today, plogging is an official activity, one that is becoming increasingly popular. Cities around the world now hold logging events, “I would just hope people would think twice before dropping a garbage on the ground. We have containers seems on every block. So, it’s easy to put your garb age in the trash cans. I just think people should think about it a little bit more. I do hope one day there will not be a need for plogging.” said an interviewee.（）28. Which of the following can replace the underlined phrase “took matters into his own hands”?A. called on people to join him.B. appealed to people to go green.C. began to pick up the trash.D. had the collected trash recycled.（）29. What does the example of Jeff Horowitz tell us?A. Plogging comes naturally to joggers who care about the environment.B. Plogging is an easy way to clean the environment.C. It doesn’t make any sense to joy without picking up trash.D. It is better to clean up the neighborhood by plogging.（）30. What is the idea that Logging events are meant to promote?A. Jogging is truly beneficial.B. Trash cans should be within reach.C. Littering is not acceptable.D. Communities should be kept clean.（）31. What can be a suitable title for the passage?A. New Exercise Enjoys unbelievable popularityB. New Exercise Trend Also Helps EnvironmentC. Plogging — a Fashionable Way to clear wasteD. Plogging — an Exercise Originating in SwedenDLast night I was driving from Harrisburg to Lewisburg，a distance of about eighty miles. It was late. Several times I got stuck behind a slow-moving truck on a narrow road with a solid white line on my left，and I became increasingly impatient.At one point along an open road，I came to a crossing with a traffic light. I was alone on the road by now，but as I drove near the light，it turned red and I made a stop. I looked left，right and behind me. Nothing. Not a car, no suggestion of car lamps，but there I sat，waiting for the light to change，the only human being for at least a mile in any direction.I started wondering why I refused to run the light. I was not afraid of being caught，because there was clearly no policeman around，and there certainly would have been no danger in goingthrough it.Much later that night，the question of why I'd stopped for that light came back to me. I think I stopped because it's part of a contract we all have with each other. It's not only the law，but it's an agreement we have，and we trust each other to honor it：we don't go through red lights.Trust is our first inclination（倾向）. Doubting others does not seem to be natural to us. The whole construction of our society depends on mutual（相互的）trust，not distrust. We do what we say we'll do，we show up when we say we'll show up；and we pay when we say we'll pay. We trust each other in these matters，and we're angry or disappointed with the person or organization that breaks the trust we have in them.I was so proud of myself for stopping for the red light that night.（）32. Why did the author get impatient while driving?A. He was lonely on the road.B. He got tired of driving too long.C. He was slowed down by a truck.D. He came across too many traffic lights.（）33. What was the author's immediate action when the traffic light turned red?A. Driving through it.B. Stopping still.C. Looking around for other cars.D. Checking out for traffic police.（）34. The event made the author strongly believe that ___________.A. a society needs mutual trustB. doubting others is human natureC. patience is important to driversD. traffic rules may be unnecessary（）35. Why was the author proud of himself?A. He made a right decision.B. He held back his anger.C. He followed his inclination.D. He kept his promise.EA pile of homework can seem daunting. Howev er, you’ll knock the homework out before you know it if you do the right things.◆Making a planCreate a checklist of the tasks you have. ___36___ The satisfaction of checking things off will keep you motivated to continue.

Their sense of days and time has a lot to do with the change of seasons and positions of the sun or the moon in the sky.

But when 13-year-old Emmie Tallent whohas Down syndrome(唐氏综合征) didn’t make her school’s cheer squad(啦啦队), she responded in the most impressive way — she cheered anyway. Emmie Tallent, a girl with firm determination, took to the sidelines while her school’s cheer squad performed. She matched the entire routine, moving for moving, in a black dress and tie-dyed shoes.Her sister, Sydnee, recorded this moment on video, and it’s now capturing hearts worldwide. The video, with over 3 million views and 87,000 likes, shows Emmie facing the official squad and performing the routine alongside them. Her performance is nothing short of inspiring. “Girl didn’t make the cheer team, but she didn’t care,” Sydnee wrote, admiring Emmie’s confidence.“E m mie may not be on the cheer team this time, but I’m s ure her talent and spirit will shine through somewhere in the future,” Sydnee said with a smile. “Right now, she’s satisfied and happy doing what she loves. Thank you all for supporting her. I want to show the world Emmie’s joy from pursuing what she likes and the beauty of diversity.”The team did not have a lot of spots and even neurotypical(神经正常的) girls who were much better than Emmie didn’t make it to join it. Emmie’s school was giving Emmie help and kept encouraging her, but there are hard decisions that have to be made sometimes. Though Emmie didn’t make the squad, she wasn’t feeling upset at home, and continued to follow cheer squad’s routines and moves to please herself and spread joy to others, even if from th e sidelines.In the face of rejection, this tough 13-year-old chose to dance rather than sit by and let it define her, inspiring us all to embrace our uniqueness and find joy in every moment.24.

She was suffering from chlamydia(衣原体病), a disease widespread among koalas. Today, she is one of “the lucky” living creatures in tree corridors(走廊) that have been created by volunteers to protect koalas and other animals by saving their quickly shrinking habitats, or natural environment.The corridors, planted by the local conservation group Bangalow Koalas, are made up of large systems of plants. They are intended for koalas and other animals like the glossy black cockatoos, possums, and wallabies. All of them are endangered, or at risk of becoming extinct. The corridors provide a safe path across the koala’s increasingly broken habitat. “Our corridors are actually trying to get them away from humans, from cars and from dogs,” said Linda Sparrow, president o f Bangalow Koalas. “They can safely move across the landscapes and don’t have to put up with us humans.”The koala is predicted to be extinct in the wild in New South Wales by 2050. Some of the biggest dangers include wildfires and habitat loss through land clearing for development. Koalas have already been declared endangered in several Australian states. A recent report by the Australian Koala Foundation said the animal was worth an estimated $3.2 billion per year to the tourism industry.Founded in 2016, Bangalow Koalas has planted over 936,000 trees on 119 properties, helping koala conservation and improving the local ecosystem. The group, which depends on community volunteers, aims to plant 500,000 trees by 2025. V olunteer Lindy Stacker, who has been planting trees for over five years, still remains devoted to the cause. She said the activity is good for mental health and has brought the community together. “I can’t imagine a world where there’s no koalas in the wild. We’re going to do everything we can possibly to make sure that won’t happen,” Lindy said.28. Who is Lucy?A. A farmer.B. A patient.C. A koala.D. A volunteer.29. What are the tree corridors intended to do?A. To shelter koalas from human threat.B. To test the local natural environment.C. To save koalas suffering from chlamydia.D. To stop koalas’ habitats from being rebuilt.30. What does the author want to show in paragraph 3?A. The reason for koa las’ extinction.B. Koalas’ value in tourism industry.C. People’s deep love for k oalas.D. The necessity of saving koalas.31. What can be the best title for the text?A. Bangalow Koalas: A Group Intended For KoalasB. Tree Corridors: A Lifeline For Endangered KoalasC. Bangalow Koalas: Call On V olunteers For Koalas’ ProtectionD. Tree Corridors: Responsible For The Loss Of Koalas’ HabitatsDDeep sleep doesn’t just rest your body. Scientists believe it’s also when the brain washes away toxins(毒素), with a new project looking at whether the brain’s self-clean can be boosted.South Australian Health and Medical Research Institute (SAHMRI) neuroscientist Dr Tim Sargeant has teamed with D r Edward Robins from SAHMRI’s Molecular Imaging and Therapy Research Unit to develop a brain scan that shows how well a brain is cleaning itself. Studies have shown that a clean brain would help with memory while fighting dementia(痴呆).Scientists believe our brains clean themselves out each night when we enter deep sleep. Cerebrospinal fluid(脑脊液) is thought to wash through the brain, cleaning out toxins. Studies have shown a clear link between poor memory and toxins like the buildup of sticky plaques(黏性斑块) in the brains. Scientists believe brains that have a buildup of this plaque over time may not be cleaning themselves properly, putting people at risk of dementia.Fortunately, the hope is that a clean brain would help with memory while fighting dementia. The brain scan will use special material to track how well the brain can keep itself clean and healthy through the process of removing and recycling its waste. “We’re aiming to catch the signs of the brain struggling to keep itself clean in individuals around the age of 50 or 60, well before the onset of Alzheimer’s dis ease(老年痴呆) in most people,” Dr Sargeant said.This new scan, an exciting imaging technology, will allow scientists to form a picture of a living brain and watch how it’s recycling wasting material in real time. “The scan takes out a lot of the guess work, by allowing scientists to see with their own eyes if they’ve hit the target or not,” Dr Robins said. “Without imaging, a researcher can get all the way up to the trial st age before realising they’r e at a dead end.”32. What is the aim of Dr Sargeant and Dr Robins’ developing the brain scan?A. To help people enter deep sleep.B. To reduce memory loss and dementia.C. To research how to remove sticky plaques.D. To study what the brain uses to clean itself.33. What may cause dementia according to the text?A. Not enough blood in the brain.B. Too frequent cleaning of the brain.C. The increase of cerebrospinal fluid.D. The gradual increase of sticky plaques.34. What does the underlined word “onset” in paragraph 4 mean?A. Worsening.B. Improvement.C. Beginning.D. Disappearance.35. What does Dr Robins think of the brain scan?A. It is quite effective.B. It is just imaginary.C. It brings more work.D. It is far from exact.第二节（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5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。

第I 卷（选择题）一、阅读理解A couple from Miami, Bill and Simone Butler, spent sixtysix days in a life raft (救生艇)in the seas of Central America after their boat sank.Twentyone days after they left Panama in their boat, in Simony, they met some whales (鲸).“ They started to hit t he side of the boat,” said Bill,“ and then suddenly we heard water. ” Two minutes later, the boat was sinking. They jumped into the life raft and watched the boat go under the water.For twenty days they had tins of food, biscuits, and bottles of water. They also had a fishing line and a machine to make salt water into drinking water —two things which saved their lives. They caught eight to ten fish a day and ate them raw(生的).Then the line broke. “So we had no more fish until something very strange happened. Some sharks(鲨鱼) came to feed, and the fish under the raft were afraid and came to the surface. I caught them with my hands.”About twenty ships passed them, but no one saw them. After fifty days at sea their life raft was beginning to break up. Then suddenly it was all over. A fishing boat saw them and picked them up. They couldn’t stand up. So the captain carried them onto his boat and took them to Costa Rica. Their two months at sea was over.1．Bill and Simone were traveling _______ when they met some whales. A ．in a lakeB ．in a riverC ．in a seaD ．in a desert2．After their boat sank, the couple _______.A ．jumped into the seaB ．heard waterC ．watched the boat sail awayD ．stayed in the life raft3．When the fishing boat picked them up, _______ . A ．they stood up as quickly as possible B ．they climbed onto the boat easilyC ．their life raft was in good conditionD ．their two months at sea was overOne afternoon I toured an art museum while waiting for my husband to finish a business meeting. I was looking forward to a quiet view of the wonderful works.A young couple viewing the paintings ahead of me chatted nonstop between themselves. I watched them a moment and decided she was doing all the talking. I admired his patience for tolerating her constant words. Disturbed by their noise, I moved on.I encountered them several times as I moved through the various rooms of art. Each time I heard her constant talking, I moved away quickly.I was standing at the counter of the museum gift store doing some shopping when the couple approached the exit. Before they left, the man reached into his pocket and pulled out a white object. He turned it into a long cane (手杖) and then tapped his way into the coatroom to get his wife’s jacket.“He’s a brave man,” the clerk at the counter said, “Most of us would give up if we were blinded at such a young age. During his recovery, he made a promise that his life wouldn’t change. So, as before, he and his wife e in whenever there’s a new art show.”“But what does he get out of the art?” I asked, “He can’t see.”“Can’t see! You’re wrong. He sees a lot. More than you or I do,” the clerk said, “His wife describes each painting so he can see it in his head.”I learned something about patience, courage and love that day. I saw the patience of a young wife describing paintings to a person without sight and the courage of a husband who would not allow blindness to change his life.And I saw the love shared by two people as I watched this couple walk away arm in arm. 4．Which of the following statements is true?A ．The husband was doing all the talking when the couple viewed the works.B ．The husband tapped his way to the coatroom to get his own jacket.C ．The husband was considered a brave man by the clerk at the store.D ．The husband allowed blindness to change his life.此卷只装订不密封班级 姓名 准考证号 考场号 座位号5．The underlined word “encountered” in the passage means “________”.A．cheated B．metC．talked D．argued6．We can infer from the passage that ___________.A．the man had his eyes blinded in a fightB．the man can see very well while visiting the museumC．the woman was very patient and devoted to his husbandD．the man often wasted time by visiting exhibitionsMy teenage son Karl became withdrawn after his father died. As a single parent, I tried to do my best to talk to him. But the more I tried, the more he pulled away. When his report card arrived during his junior year, it said that he had been absent 95 times from classes and had six falling grades for the year. At this rate he would never graduate. I sent him to the school adviser, and I even begged him. Nothing worked.One night I felt so powerless that I got down on my knees and begged for help. “Please God, I can’t do any thing more for my son. I’m at the end of my rope. I’m giving the whole thing up to you.”I was at work when I got a phone call. A man introduced himself as the headmaster. “I want to talk to you about Karl’s absences.” Before he could say another word, I cried and all my disappointment and sadness over Karl came pouring out into the ears of this stranger. “I love my son but I just don’t know what to do. I’ve tried everything to get Karl to go back to school and nothing has worked. It’s out of nay hands. ”For a moment there was silence on the other end of the line. The headmaster seriously said, “Thank you for your tim e”, and hung up.Karl’s next report card showed a marked improvement in his grades. Finally, he even made the honor roll. In his fourth year, I attended a parentteacher meeting with Karl. I noticed that his teachers were astonished at the way he had turned himself around. On our way home, he said, “Mum, remember that call from the headmaster last year?” I nodded. “That was me. I thought I’d play a joke but when I heard what you said, it really hit me how much I was hurting you. That's when I knew I had to m ake you proud.”7．There was silence on the other end of the line because __________A．the speaker was too moved to say anything to the motherB．the speaker was not listeningC．the speaker had gone awayD．the speaker was unable to speak8．The sentence “... he even made the honor roll” means that “_______”A．he was even on the list to be punishedB．he was even on the list of students who were lazyC．he was even on the list of students who were always late for schoolD．he was even on the list of the best students at school9．What is the main idea of this passage?A．Children in singleparent families often have mental problems.B．School education doesn’t work without full support from parents.C．Being understood by parents is very important to teenagers.D．Mothe r’s love plays an important role in teenagers’ life.10．Karl has a ________ mother.A．great B．foolishC．stupid D．dishonest二、七选五Are you feeling anxious about your test next week? Here are some tips that will help you in dealing with stress(压力) and anxiety.11．One of the most important ways of avoiding test anxiety is to prepare well in advance. Study regularly for a few hours every day. It helps in increasing the confidence of students.12．If students are not able to deal with anxiety or nervousness, they could talk to their teachers, student counselors(辅导员), parents or friends. Parents should also avoid pressurizing(加压) their kids to do well. Create a peaceful and relaxing atmosphere (放松的气氛) at home.Then your children can study without any tension(紧张). Another important point that arises here is neither the students nor the parents should pare the children with their other classmates and friends.13．Do not forget to eat and sleep properly. Many times due to anxiety students avoid sleep and starve themselves. They should sleep for at least 67 hours a day and eat nutritious and healthy food. Exercising regularly is equally important as talking to friends and socializing(社交).14．Plan your studies well. Chart(制图) out a timetable and take proper breaks between studying. Along with the study time, allot (分配) time to relax and do what you love to do. Practicing simple breathing skills will also help reduce stress.15．. While it is important to gain good scores in tests, it is not the most important thing in life. Learning to deal with nervousness and stress will not only help them to do well in school tests, but also in their future life.A.Third, physical fitnessB.First, study regularlyC.Fourth, prepare scheduleD.Second, reduce study pressureE.Students should remember that tests are just a part of lifeF.You should go to bed earlyG.You’d better turn to your teachers for help三、完形填空When a person is curious(好奇的) about something, it means he is interested in it and wishes to know more about it. There is nothing 16 with curiosity in itself. Whether it is good or bad 17 on what people are curious about.Curiosity (好奇心) is 18 silly or wrong. Some people with nothing to do are 19 of curiosity about what their neighbors are doing. They are 20 to know what they are eating or drinking, what they are bringing home or taking out or 21 they have e home so early or late. To be interested in these things is 22 because they are not important at all. It is none of their 23 to know what neighbors do or are doing. Such curiosity is 24 not only foolish but also harmful. For most probably, it 25 to small talk which often brings 26 , shame or disrespect to others, and thus hurt their feelings.On the other 27 , there is a noble curiosity— the curiosity of the wise, who 28 at all the great things and try to find out all they 29 about them. Columbus could 30 have found America if he had not been 31 . James Watt would not have made the steam engine 32 his curiosity about the raising of the kettle lid (水壶盖). All the great discoveries and inventions in human history have been made 33 a result of curiosity. So the curiosity is never 34 unimportant things, which have 35 or nothing to do with the happiness of the public.16．A．good B．wrong C．right D．well17．A．works B．puts C．takes D．depends18．A．never B．sometimes C．seldom D．hardly19．A．full B．fond C．proud D．lack20．A．angry B．worried C．pleased D．anxious21．A．how B．when C．why D．where22．A．silly B．necessary C．possible D．funny23．A．work B．homework C．duty D．business24．A．nothing B．anything C．something D．everything25．A．refers B．leads C．causes D．results26．A．pride B．harm C．good D．benefit27．A．face B．side C．way D．hand28．A．expect B．like C．wonder D．hate29．A．need B．dare C．must D．can30．A．never B．ever C．probably D．finally31．A．famous B．careful C．curious D．hard32．A．for B．without C．in D．from33．A．before B．as C．after D．during34．A．about B．by C．at D．to35．A．much B．little C．some D．few第II卷（非选择题）四、语法填空阅读下面短文，在空白处填入1个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。

11th.1958．Mum gave birth to Richard．After she brought him home from hospital，she put him in my lap，saying．"I promised you a gift，and here it is．"What an honor!I turned four a month earlier and none of my friends had such a baby doll of their own．I played with it day and night．I sang to it．I told it stories.1told it over and over how much I loved it!One morning，however，I found its bed empty．My doll was gone!I cried for it．Mum wept and told me that the poor little thing had been sent to a hospital．It had a fever．For several days，I heard Mum and Dad whispering such words as"hopeless"，"pitiful"，and"dying"，whichsounded ominous．Christmas was coming．"Don't expect any presents this year．"Dad said，pointing at the socks I hung in the living room．"If your baby brother lives，that'll be Christmas enough．"As he spoke，his eyes filled with tears．I'd never seen him cry before．The phone rang early on Christmas morning．Dad jumped out of bed to answer it．From my bedroom I heard him say．"What？He's all right？"He hung up and shouted upstairs．"The hospital said we can bring Richard home!""Thank God．"I heard Mum cry．From the upstairs window，I watched my parents rush out to the car．I had never seen them that happy．And I was also full of joy．What a wonderful day!My baby doll would be home．I ran downstairs．My socks still hung there flat．But I knew they were not empty；they were filled with love!（1）What happened to the author on September 11th 1958？A．He got a baby brotherB．He got a Christmas giftC．He became four years oldD．He received a doll（2）What does the underlined word"ominous"in Paragraph 3 probably mean？A．impossibleB．boringC．difficultD．fearful（3）Which word can best describe the feeling of the father when Christmas was coming？A．excitement．B．happiness．C．sadness．D．disappointment．（4）What is the passage mainly about？A．A sad Christmas dayB．Life with a lovely babyC．A special Christmas gift．D．Memories of a happy family．34．（8分）On a number of drives throughout my childhood，my mother would suddenly pull over the car to examine a flower by the side of the road or rescue a beetle from tragedy while I，in my late teens and early twenties，sat impatiently in the car．Though Mother's Day follows the Earth Day，for me，they have always been related to each other．My mum has been "green" since she became concerned about the environment．Part of this habit was born of thrift（节俭）．Like her mother and her grandmother before her，mum saves glass jars，empty cheese containers and reuses her plastic bags．Mum creates a kind of harmonious relationship with wildlife in her yard．She knows to pick the apples on her trees a little early to avoid the bears and that if she leaves the bird feeders out at night，it is likely that they will be knocked down by a family of raccoons（浣熊）．Spiders that make their way into the house and are caught in juice glasses will be set loose in the garden．I try to teach my children that looking out for the environment starts with being aware ofthe environment．On busy streets，we look for dandelions（蒲公英）to fly in the wind;we say hello to neighborhood cats and pick up plastic cups and paper bags．This teaching comes easily，I realize，because I was taught so well by example．Mum didn't need to lecture;she didn't need to beat a drum to change the world．She simply slowed down enough to enjoy living in it and with that joy came mercy and an instinct for protection．I am slowing down and it isn't because of the weight of my nearly forty years on theplanet．It is out of my concern for the planet itself．I've begun to save glass jars and reuse packing envelops．I pause in my daily tasks to watch the squirrels race each other in the trees above my house．Last summer，in the company of my son and daughter，I planted tomatoes in my yard．With the heat of August around me，I ate the first while sitting on my low wall with dirt on my hands．Warm from the sun，it burst on my tongue with a sweetness．I immediately wanted to share with my mum．（1）Why does the author say the Earth Day is connected with Mother's Day？A．Because Mother's Day always falls shortly after the Earth Day．B．To stress that all the women in her family are environmentalists．C．To stress how much her mother cares about the environment．D．Because her mother shows her concern to nature on Mother's Day．（2）Which of the following in NOT related to Mum's "green life"？A．Rescuing a beetle from a certain tragedy．B．Saving glass jars，empty cheese containers．C．Setting a caught spider free in the garden．D．Picking dandelions on busy streets．（3）We can infer from the article that ．A．the author realizes that she should teach her children by example as wellB．the author's mother knows how to get rid of the wildlife in her yardC．the author believes that only by learning to slow down can we enjoy lifeD．the author's mother used to lecture her to protect the environment（4）What can be learned from the last paragraph？A．Tomatoes make the author think of her mother．B．The author likes eating tomatoes planted by herself．C．Planting tomatoes is a way of protecting environment．D．The author really appreciates her mother's teaching．35．（6分）Can you believe everything that you read？It seems as if every day，some new articles come out about a new discovery about this or that．For example，water is bad for you，or good for you．The answer depends on which scientific study has just come out．People cannot decide which food items are healthy，how pyramids were constructed，and why dinosaurs disappeared．When we look for answers we sometimes can believe persuasive researches and scientists．But how trustworthy are they really？Here are two examples of scientific hoaxes （骗局）．As far back as 1726，Johann Beringer was fooled by his fellow scientists into thinking hehad made an amazing discovery．The fossils of spiders，lizards，and even birds with the name of God written on them in Hebrew were unlike anything that had been found before．He wrote several papers on them and was famous for those only to have it revealed that they were planted by jealous colleagues to ruin his reputation．When an early human being was discovered in 1912，scientists at this time were wild with excitement over the meaning it had for the theory of evolution．There were hundreds of papers about this Piltdown man over the next fifty years until it was finally discovered to be a complexhoax．The skull （头骨）of a man had been mixed with the jawbone of an orangutan （猩猩）to make the ape （猿）man．The next time you read the exciting new findings of a study of the best scientist，do not automatically assume that it is true．Even qualified people can get it wrong．Though we certainly should not ignore scientific research，we do need to take it with a grain of salt．Just because it is accepted as the truth today does not mean it will still be trustworthy tomorrow．（1）What is the reason why Johann Beringer was fooled？A．His fellow scientists wanted to make fun of him．B．His workmates are eager to become famous too．C．These scientists made a mistake because of carelessness．D．His colleagues was jealous of him and did so to destroy his fame．（2）The

in his way．He has shown that he could do anything a person with two legs could do，including climbing the world's highest snowcovered mountain﹣Mt．Kilimanjaro!Spencer's great adventure to get to the top of the 19，341 foothigh peak began on June 13th from the small village of Naro Moru in Kenya．The team included his best friends David Johnson and Alex Meers．For the first few days，Spencer walked 80 percent of the rocky road using his hands．Only when it became impossible would he use the wheel chair．As would be expected，the nights were very terrible﹣The ground underneath was rocky and the temperatures were lower than they expected．Hard as it was，Spencer did not surrender the goal even once．However，as the road started becoming steeper（陡峭的）and rockier，his friends became worried about him﹣Even thoughSpencer had spent over a year training for this event with his hands，they worried that he would have some serious injuries if he continued．They decided that in the last two days Spencer West would cut back his independent climb to half day and be carried the other half．Things got more and more difficult as they got closer to the top．As the air got thinner，they suffered from sickness and the shortage of energy so that they stopped any talk﹣They needed all their energy to keep going．The only thought in their minds was to get to the top．But，it was all worth it﹣Finally，Spencer West climbed Africa's highest peak!（1）With whom did Spencer West climb Mt．Kilimanjaro？（no more than 5 words）（2）What does the underlined word "surrender" mean？（2 words）（3）What did Spencer West's friends

AMore than 30,000 people went to the White House on Monday for the 136th Easter Egg Roll (复活节滚彩蛋). President Barack Obama and First Lady Michelle Obama held the event by inviting thousands of kids to color and look for eggs. The theme(主题) of the day was “Hop Into Healthy, Swing Into Shape.” It was part of the First Lady’s “Let’s Move!” pr ogram to reduce obesity rates (肥胖率) among American kids. Mrs. Obama spoke to young reporters about her goal(目标) to get children to eat right and keep moving.“We are working to make sure that kids born today grow up healthy, learn how to have balanced meal s, and get more physical activity into their lives,” she said.Mrs. Obama said she wants children across the nation to understand that "exercise isn't just hard work, it's play. If you’re running around with your dog, you're getting exercise. If you walk u p the stairs, that's exercise, But if you’re sitting in front of the TV or on a computer game, you're not exercising.”The First Lady said that for kids who have balanced meals most of the time, having a special snack, like chocolate, will not hurt." And if you are active, you can splurge (挥霍) a little more," she said. Mrs. Obama’s favorite "splurge food" is French fries. But she balances her splurging by exercising almost every day. She loves to play tennis and she practices yoga.“A lot of kids look up to(敬仰) athletes, and I think it's important for athletes to share their good habits,” Mrs. Obama said. "Kids aren’t just going to wake up and be LeBron James. He's practicing and eating right and working out and training. Our athletes can be really good messengers to kids who look up to them--they can say to kids, 'If you really want to be like me, then you really do need to eat your vegetables.’”1.The purpose of the “Let’s Move!” program is to_______ .A. help kids keep healthyB. train more young reportersC. encourage kids to eat more eggsD. invite kids to visit the White House2.“Splurge food” is allowed to be eaten when__________ .A. you don' t hurt yourselfB. you have a special snackC. you never eat French friesD. you eat right and stay active3.What can we learn from the last paragraph?A.

Before coming here, China seemed alien to me ----a place that expected to be hugely dissimilar from my own British culture.After travelling from Beijing up to Xi'an, I wanted to challenge myself by choosing a smaller town----Xiahe in Gansu Province. I arrived in Lanzhou at around 5 am, but there were no buses to Xiahe. I managed to spot a policeman and attempted to explain my destination to him in simple English, praying that he would understand. I wasn't sure that he did but I just followed himanyway as I had no choice. He took me on a bus and I didn't know where I was going. Luckily, I met a student who explained to me in English that the policeman was taking me to another bus station where I could take a bus to Xiahe. During this conversation a third man said he was also a policeman and would help me buy tickets. But as he was not in uniform, I was a little doubtful. The uniformed policeman told me it was OK to go with the third man, so I got off the bus with the so-called policeman who at this point, disappeared and I was left in the middle of nowhere. I stood panicking. Around one minute later a police car came and stopped right by me. It was the un-uniformed policeman. I got into the car and he dropped me directly at the bus station, and helped me buy the ticket.This is one of many experiences that I have had in China. I realized that however different this culture was, there was one thing that would always stand out—kindness. In the west we seem to lack the foundation of trust, yet in China it seems that there will always be someone to answer your questions and lead you the right way.12. Which of the following is the closest in meaning to the underlined word "alien"?A. Unfriendly.B. Familiar.C. Strange.D. Attractive.13. What can we learn from the second paragraph?A. The author doubted the so-called policeman.B. The third man could speak English fluently.C. The author followed a student to another bus station.D. A police car took the un-uniformed policeman away.14. Why did the un-uniformed policeman disappear after the author got off the bus?A. He hurried to buy a ticket for the author.B. He went to get a car to pick the author up.C. The author didn't behave in a friendly way.D. The author found a uniformed policeman to help him.15. According to the text, what impressed the author deeply in China?A. Beautiful scenes.B. Terrible transportation.C. Troubles in small towns.D. People's kindness.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。
