21．（6分）Winter sports tend to be more dangerous than summer sports — they take place mostly outside at the mercy of ice or snow, involving (牵涉) metal edges, extreme speeds and crashes. Skeleton (俯视冰梭), however, stands apart as one of the most difficult and least accessible of all the winter sports. Adam Edelman, Israel’s first Olympic skeleton athlete, would like to change that.Edelman was the 10th athlete named to the 2018 Israeli Olympic Team. Qualifying for the Olympics in any sport is impressive. But it’s more impressive if you qualify for the Olympics after only four years in the sport — and without a coach.Edelman was first introduced to skeleton watching the game on television in late 2013. Sports have always been a part of his life. He grew up playing football and was a goalkeeper on the Massachusetts Institute of Technology football team. Ready for a new challenge, he set his sights on the Olympics.Without a coach, Edelman learned to drive by watching endless hours of YouTube videos and taking more runs than anybody else on the track. “When everybody else would take three runs per day, I would take six to eight.” he recalled.Succeeding in skeleton takes a large amount of athletic ability and technical skill, but there’s one more element (因素) required, one that can’t be taught. “These tracks but built in the middle of nowhere, and it’s gray and cold. You haven’t seen your family in seven months and you really just want to give up. To continue, it takes tenacity.” Edelman said.Edelman is already looking beyond Pyeongchang. The 2022 Olympics could be in his future, but whether he continues to compete or not, he promises to stay in Israelisports as long as possible-as instructor or as a coach.1、What might impress people most?A．Edelman’s gift in winter sports.B．The challenges Edelman has met.C．Edelman entering for the Olympics.D．Edelman’s successful story as a skeleton athlete.2、Which word can be used to describe Edelman?A．Modest. B．Generous.C．Ambitious. D．Reliable.3、What does the underlined word “tenacity” in Paragraph 5 probably mean?A．Will power. B．Extra strength.C．Good luck. D．Financial support.4、What might be Edelman’s plan for the future?A．Setting up a team of his own.B．Passing on his skills and experience.C．Calling on more people to take up sports.D．Ending his sports life after the Olympic Games.22．（8分）Every baby born a decade from now will have its genetic code (基因编码) mapped at birth, the head of the worlds’ lea ding genome sequencing (基因图谱) company has predicted.A complete DNA read – out for every newborn will be technically possible and affordable in less than five years, promising a revolution in healthcare, says Jay Flatley, the chief executive of Illumina. Only social and legal problems are likely to delay the age of “genome sequences,” or genetic profiles. By 2019 it will have become routine to map infants’ genes when they are born, Dr Flatly told The Times.This will open a new approach to medicine, by which conditions such as high blood pressure and heart disease can be predicted and prevented and drugs used more safely and effectively.A baby’s genome can be discovered at birth by a blood test. By examining a person’s genome, it is possible to identify raised risks of developing diseases such as cancers. Those at high risk can then he screened more regularly, or given drugs or dietary advice to lower their chances of becoming ill.Personal genomes could also he used to ensure that patients get the medicine that is most likely to work for them and least likely to have side – effects.The development, however, will raise legal concerns about privacy and access to individuals’ genetic records.“Bad things can be done with the genome. It could predict something about someone –and you could possibly hand the information to their employer or their insurance company.” said Dr Flatley.“People have to recognize that this horse is out of the barn, and that your genome probably can’t be protected, because everywhere you go you leave your genome behind. Complete genetic privacy, however, is unlikely to be possible”, he added.As the benefits become clearer, however, he believes that most people will want their genomes read and interpreted. The risk is nothing compared with the gain.1、In the first two paragraphs, the author mainly wants to tell us about______. A．the significant progress in medicineB．the promise of a leading companyC．the information of babies’ genesD．the research of medical scientists2、Which of the following is a problem caused by this approach?A．The delaying in discovering DNA．B．The risk of developing diseases at birth.C．The side – effects of medicine on patients.D．The letting out of personal genetic information.3、What does the und erlined sentence “… this horse is out of the barn” mean? A．Genetic mapping technique has been widely used.B．Genetic mapping technique is too horrible to control.C．People are eager to improve genetic mapping technique.D．people can’t stop genetic mapping technique advancing.4、What’s Dr Flatley’s attitude towards the technology?A．Tolerant. B．Conservative. C．Positive. D．Doubtful.23．（8分）When Shakespeare was twenty-one, he went to London, a very interesting place, to try his fortune.There was the famous London Bridge and St. Paul’s Cathedral, and palaces andmarkets and long streets full of shops.Then, too, there were the daily crowds where could be seen people from all over the world. Knights, scholars and the highwayman (拦路强盗）or thieves, who had been infamous for their clever robberies, passed by each other.Here, also, were noblemen dressed in gold, from Italy and Spain and France; slaves from Spanish America, sea captains and ministers, soldiers and servants—all held by chances or interests within the gray walls which circled London, and whose gates gave welcome to as strange a crowd as could be found in the world.Into this curious crowd came Shakespeare, quick to see and eager to learn. And before long all these strange sights were as fami liar to him as the faces of his own town’s residents. Each one told its story to him so plainly that, as before he had learned the secrets of the fields and woods, so now he learned men and men’s interests that make up the great world.And he learned these lessons so well that when he came to write his plays, he made such use of them as no writer ever made before or since; for it is the use of this knowledge of the world, combined with his own genius, that makes Shakespeare the greatest dramatist that has ever lived.1、What was London like in Shakespeare’s eyes when he first went there?A．Dirty and small. B．Strange and interesting. C．Infamous and terrible. D．Familiar and modern.2、Which of the following best describes Shakespeare?A．Shakespeare got inspiration to write from his hometown, London. B．Shakespeare was eager to make friends with the noblemen in London. C．Shakespeare was good at observing and learning from the daily life. D．Shakespeare became the greatest dramatist owing to his own genius.3、What do es the word “one” in paragraph 5 refer to?A．Crowd. B．Resident.C．Face. D．Sight.4、The passage probably comes from______.A．a poster B．a textbookC．an advertisement D．an announcement24．（8分）Born in 1995 or later, a lot of Gen Z-ers are entering into adulthood andwill soon join the workforce. Having grown up with the Internet, they are said to be “tech-savvy” and mad about social media.They live in a more tolerant ear when gay marriage is being legalized in more and more societies. But they’ve also witness ed the rise of global terrorism.Most people will agree that the single biggest difference between Gen Z and other generations is how connected they are. This is a group of people who were hooked up to social media as soon as they were born. Social media have changed the way Gen Z-ers interact with each other and how they get and process information. “We are the first true digital natives,” Hannah Payne, an 18-year-old UCLA student and lifestyle blogger, was quoted by The New York Times as saying. “I can al most at the same instant create a document, edit it, post a photo on Instagram and talk on the phone, all fro theuser-friendly interface of my iPhone.”“Gen Z takes in information instantaneously,” she added, “and loses interest just as fast.”Gen Z-ers may have a shorter attention span than a goldfish, but they are conscientious(认真尽责的)and civic-minded(有公德心的). They are entered their adulthood, accompanied by the economic downturn and global terrorism and they have their eyes open from the very beginning.The Guardian also notes that young people in the UK are becoming more active in politics. According to a British Election Study that is cited by the newspaper, an estimated 58 percent of 18-to-24-year-old voted in the 2015 general election in the UK, a significant jump from the 2 percent turnout among the same age group in 2005.Voting is just one way of making one’s voice heard. The European Commission has found that “young people regard voting as one option among many, and they show their political engagement in many different, issue-specific ways that can potentially influence policies more directly”.1、According to the passage, we can infer that __________.A．Gen Z has become a mainstream of the societyB．it is still unacceptable for gays to get married in some societiesC．global terrorism occurs less often than beforeD．Internet and intelligent mobile phones have dominated Gen Z’s life2、Which of the following cannot characterize Gen Z-ers?A．They are highly connected by means of social mediaB．They an access and process information in a more advanced wayC．They are going through an age free from care and worryD．They hold no lasting interest in things3、How does Gen Z obtain information according to Hannah Payne?A．Directly B．SurprisinglyC．Conveniently D．Independently4、What can we conclude from the last two paragraphs?A．There’s a significant drop of young voters’ engagement in general election in UK in 2015B．The young generation is getting more and more active in running for governors C．Young people will directly decide policy makingD．Voting in political elections can help young people express their standpoint 25．（10分）Over a hundred years ago in 1911, something strange was found in the glaciers of Antarctica. Grilffith Taylor—an Australian geologist, had discovered a blood red steam pouring out of the ice cascades（瀑布）of Talor Glacier! Popularly known as the Blood Falls, scientists had not been able to find the reason behind the blood red liquid flowing through the ice---until recently. The mystery of the Blood Falls had finally been solved.When these falls were first discovered, scientists had believed that the red colour came from a large amount of red algae（海藻）concentrated in the water. Red algae contain a pigment（色素）which reflects red light, making the algae appear red.This theory made sense, until it was later found that algae do not play a part in the red color of the flowing liquid at all. What really causes Talor Glacier’s waters appear blood red, is the presence of iron oxide in the liquid. The waters of the blood falls are rich in salt and iron content, and when this water comes in contact with the air, it turns red—just like rust! The water in these falls is often referred to as “brine” by scientists because of the high salt content in the water.This reasoning behind the red colors of the falls was found back in 2003. However, the entire mystery had not yet been solved. How is it then, that the Blood Falls are not frozen?Researchers at the University of Colorado and University of Alaska found thatinside the glacier, there was a network of channels and reservoirs that move the water around. Salt water has a lower freezing temperature. In addition, when any substance undergoes a change in state, it gives off heat. Therefore, the brine actually warm itself up while it’s freezing! How this works, is that when the brine is flowing through the Talor Glacier, some of it does freeze. As a result of changing state from liquid to ice, the brine gives off heat. This heat is enough to keep the rest of the rest of the brine in liquid form, which is why it flows out of the glacier.Incredible new chemistry facts found, any mystery solved!1、According to the text, the red algae theory was once considered ________. A．ridiculous B．reasonableC．impractical D．complex2、Why does the Blood Falls look red in colour?A．Because there is too much salt and iron in its water.B．Because its liquid is rich in red algae.C．Because the following liquid reflects and sunlightD．Because the air is thin and rare in Antarctica.3、What is the main reason for the Bl ood Fall’s not freezing?A．The water continued flowing constantly.B．There is too much salt in the water.C．The brine gives off heat while freezingD．Temperatures aren’t high enough for flowing water.4、What is the passage mainly about?A．The discovery of the blood glacier.B．The birth of the Talor Glacier.C．The flowing red water in Antarctica.D．The mystery of the Blood Falls.第三部分语言知识运用（共两节）第一节（每小题1.5分，满分30分）阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项．26．（30分）I started serving the homeless when I was eight years old.
