For the blanks with a given word, fill in each blank with the proper form of the given -word; for the other blanks, use one word that bestfits each blank.Surprise! A New PenguinA team of scientists in New Zealand recently came across the remains of a previously unknown species of penguin—by mistake. The discovery of the Waitaha penguin species, which has been extinct for 500 years, is exciting news for the scientific community (21) it gives new insight into how past extinction events can help shape the present environment.The researchers uncovered the Waitaha penguin remains while studying New Zealand's rare yellow-eyed penguin. The team wanted to investigate the effects (22) humans have had on the now endangered species. They studied centuries-old bones from (23) they thought were yellow-eyed penguins and compared them with the bones of modern yellow-eyed penguins. Surprisingly, some of the bones were older than (24) (expect). Even more shockingly, the DNA in the bones indicated that they did not belong to yellow-eyed penguins. The scientists concluded that these very old bones (25) have belonged to a previously unknown species, which they named the Waitaha penguin.By studying the bones, scientists further concluded that the Waitaha penguin was once native (26) New Zealand. But after the settlement of humans on the island country, its population (27) (wipe) out Based on the ages of the bones of both penguin species, the team discovered a gap in time between the disappearance of the Waitaha and the arrival of the yellow-eyed penguin. The time gap indicates that the extinction of the Waitaha penguin created the opportunity for the yellow-eyed penguin population (28) (migrate) to New Zealand.(29) yellow-eyed penguins tlmved (兴盛) in New Zealand for many years, that species now also faces extinction. The yellow-eyed penguin today is considered one of the world's (30) (rare) species of penguin, with an estimated population of 7,000 that is now the focus of an extensive conservation effort in New Zealand.Section BDirections: Fill in each blank with a proper word chosen from the box. Each word can be used only once. Note that there is one word more than you need.Autism Spectrum DisorderAutism Spectrum Disorder, or ASD, affects how people communicate with and relate to others. Most people with autism don't understand some of the basic social 31 that others take for granted. They might have trouble making eyecontact, holding a conversation, or recognizing gestures. And over one-third of people with ASD are nonverbal, meaning they don,t use speech. Along with communication 32 , people with autism often like to follow certain patterns or 33 behaviors. Many are sensitive to bright light or loud noises, and others have physical problems, like trouble walking or picking up small objects. Some have 34 disabilities, but about half have average or above average IQs. It's also common for people with autism to have a great long-term memory fbr certain details, and many excel in math, science, music, or art.With such a wide variety of symptoms, no two people with ASD are alike. The behaviors vary so much that they used to be 35 as different disorders. One was Asperger Syndrome, where people obsess over particular topics, 36_nonverbal social cues, and may not understand appropriate social behaviors.Even though there's no cure fbr ASD, therapy and medication can help people adjust. Scientists are also doing clinical 37 to find other solutions. They've learned that 1 out of every 68 children in the US has the disorder, but they still aren't sure what causes it. No matter why it happens, ASD is being 38 at a higher rate every year. This doesn,t mean it's becoming more common. It just means more people are aware of the condition and getting professional help early, and awareness is 39 . The more we learn about autism, the more we can understand and relate to those who have it.It's important to note that people with ASD deserve the same respect, fairness and chances that people without ASD receive. This will help people with ASD 40 and grow in our communities.III.Reading ComprehensionSection ADirections: For each blank in the following passage there are four words or phrases marked A, B, C and D. Fill in each blank with the word or phrase that best fits the context.Stage FrightFall down as you come onstage. That's an odd trick. Not recommended. But it saved the pianist Feltsman when he was a teenager back in Moscow. The experienced cellist Rostropovich tripped him purposely to 41 him of pre-performance panic. Mr. Feltsman said, “All my fright was gone. T a lready fell. What else could happen?^, Today, music schools are addressing the problem of _42 in classes that deal with performance techniques and career preparation. There are a variety of strategies that musicians can learn to fight stage fright and its symptoms: icy fingers, shaky limbs, racing heart, 43 mind.Teachers and psychologists offer wide-ranging 44 , from basics like learning pieces inside out, to mental discipline,45 visualizing a performance and taking steps to relax. Don't deny that you're tense, they urge; some excitement is 46 , even necessary fbr dynamic playing. And play in public often, simply for the experience.Psychotherapist Diane Nichols suggests some strategies fbr the moments before 47 , “Take two deep abdominal(腹部)breaths, open up your shoulders, then smile," she says. "And not one of these "please don,t kill me' smiles. Then choose three friendly faces in the 48 , people you would communicate with and make music to, and make eye contact with them. "She doesn't want performers to think of the audience as ajudge.Extreme demands by conductors or parents are often 49 stage fright, says Dorothy Delay, a well-laiown violin teacher. She tells other teachers to demand only what their students are able to achieve..When Lynn Harrell was 20, he became the principal cellist of the Cleverland Orchestra, and he suffered extreme stage fright. "There were times when I got so nervous I was sure the audience could see my chest responding to the heartbeat, which was just total 50 . I came to a point where I thought, 'If I have to go through this to play music, I think Vm going to look fbr another job.'" Recovery, he said, involved developing humbleness—recognizing that whatever his talent, he was lilcely to make mistakes, and that an 51 concert was not a disaster.It is not only 52 artists who suffer, of course. The legendary pianist Vladimir Horowitz's nerves were famous. The great singer Franco Corelli is another example. "We had to push him on stage," his partners recalled.53 , success can make things worse. 6C In the beginning of your career, when you're scared to death, nobody knows who you are, and they don,t have any 54 ,'‘ Singer June Anderson said. "There's less to lose. Later on, when you're known, people are coming to see you, and they have certain expectations. You have a lot to 55 . " He added, T never stop being nervous until Fve sung my last note.”41. A. assure B. cure C. remind D. rob42. A. anxiety B. adolescence C. principle D. psychology43.

Each passage is followed by several questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage you have just read.(A)Leftover again? HurrayHere's the deal: You're as hungry as a horse and you want a delicious meal from a fine restaurant, but you're a little low on funds.So what do you do? If you happen to live in Europe, the answer is as easy as pie: You pull out your smartphone or tablet, and tap Too Good To Go,Europe's most popular app. Approximately 23,000 restaurants and food sellers post their leftover offerings on the app for half their usual cost.Why all this incredible generosity? Unbelievably, one-third of the world's food is thrown away, and nearly one billion people don't have enough to eat. Besides, burning wasted food releases harmful carbon dioxide emissions into the atmosphere, which contributes to climate change. Thafs why environment-minded companies around the world are creating apps for phones, tablets, and other smart devices that connect uneaten fdod with people who want or need it.After a long day at work, Anne, a 34-year-old student, pulls out her smartphone and chooses a noodle dish—pasta with mushrooms. Then she heads to a restaurant on the banks of the Spree River, where the owner packs her dinner and also offers her a scoop of free ice cream, which is a reward for bringing her own container.Indeed, there are many programs serving the same mission around the world. Tn America, people are using an app called Food for All. One hour before a restaurant closes, its staff can post leftover meals to the app for up to 80 percent off menu prices. The app also allows customers to donate leftover meals to others.Tn the Netherlands, 77,000 people have downloaded an app called NoFoodWasted.This program allows grocery store workers to share products that are approaching their expiration dates with customers who might need them.Some countries are taking their commitment to reducing food waste a step further. France and the Czech Republic, for example, have laws that prohibit restaurants and grocery stores from throwing away food. Instead, workers are required to donate that food to charity.So think about if there might be a better use for your uneaten vegetables. The planet will thank you.56.What is this passage mainly about?A.Restaurants can post leftover meals on the app Food for All.B.Apps are designed connecting leftover food with people in need.C.Stores share food approaching their expiration dates with customers.D.It's popular for people to claim food that might otherwise be thrown away.57.What is the result when lots of food is thrown out and later burned up?A.Carbon dioxide is given off, worsening the problem of climate change.B.Some countries have laws making restaurants donate the food they make.ernments have made many apps that let people find cheap meals.D.Nearly one billion people on the planet do not get enough food to eat.58.What can you infer from the passage?A.Anne packed a tasty pasta and mushroom dish to give away to charity.B.The restaurant Anne visits sells its leftover food at a discount each day.C.The 80-percent-off deal offered on app is not available during lunch hours.ws have been passed to prevent restaurants from throwing out leftover flood.59.This passage would be most useful for a student research project on .A.application of technology to help solve the problem of leftover foodws to help promote the safe transportation and sale of food productsC.restaurants using high-tech solutions to reduce packaging wasteD.methods to design apps that connect restaurants with customers61.These two medicines are most suitable for .A. a child who has a common coldB. an adult who has trouble falling asleepA. Medicine A.B. Medicine B.C. Both medicines.D. Neither medicine.C. a teenager who slightly hurt his wristD. an old man who has stomach bleeding62.Which of the following can be found in the instructions?A.Acceptable Daily Intake (ADT).B. Ingredients of the medicine.C. Facts about the origin of the medicine.D. Names of the doctors to consult.(C)Imagine how you'd feel if you had to get more than 9,000 tons of junk out to the sidewalk. Thafs how much trash is floating around in space. In fact, there's about 4 million pounds flying over our heads in low-Earth orbit. Daan, a Dutch artist, and his team at Space Waste Lab have come up with a creative plan that could clear up space junk in a spectacular fashion.①Most space waste comes f?om dead satellites and rockets. Functioning satellites are the backbone of the information systems that keep our world running smoothly. But all the satellites eventually become obsolete within just a few decades. When they die out, there5s the problem of them drifting in outer space, collecting in what scientists call the "graveyard orbit.,, Maybe you're thinking, “Why should I care about garbage 12,500 miles above me?" Well, all that fun stuff that satellites help beam down to us—mobile games, Instagram, cat videos一could be shut down by space waste. Lots of old junk floating around up there, plus new satellites added each year, means more and more high-speed collisions (碰撞). And when chunks of junk crash into one another, they break apart into millions of pieces, quickly building up speed and turning into fast-moving objects, which are dangerous to operational satellites as well as astronauts working on the International Space Station.②Space waste is a problem that's escalated so much, some scientists say that by 2050 we'll be forced to stop launching new spacecraft altogether, including new satellites. Think about that for a minute. When the last satellites finally become disused, GPS, cell phones, and the Internet will no longer function.③So we have to find a way to deal with this space garbage,and Daan pictures a sort of trash pickup, which involves grouDS of small SDacecraft casting large nets into orbit that would collect space debris (碎片)and send it back toward Earth at top speed. Here's the best part—while reentering Earth's atmosphere, the pieces of junk would burn up all at once, creating a light show similar to hundreds of shooting stars falling in the night sky. A spectacle indeed!To get ready for such an amazing effort, Space Waste Lab has been traveling to major cities across Europe and enlightening the public on the problem of the junk in space.④But Daan doesn't just talk about ways to relieve the problem—he's created something a little grander than that. Tn October 2018, his team launched Space Waste Lab Performance, an outdoor art exhibition that shows the location of each piece of space trash using large lasers that make each debris look a bit like a star wandering slowly and silently over the sky, allowing viewers to wav e and say, “Hallo, space trash!"63.The word "obsolete" (paragraph 2) is closest in meaning to "A. accessibleB. profitableC. floatingD. outdated64.According to the passage, which sentence best replaces the question mark in the diagram?EffectsSharp pieces of metal canfly through space junk.A.Working satellites can be damaged and astronauts can be hurt.B.Satellites can help people track the weather and find new locations.C.There is more junk floating in space each year as new satellites are added.D.The Space Waste Lab Performance can show people where satellites are located.65.Which of the following best supports the idea that space waste should be dealt with very soon?A. Sentences ①B. Sentence ②C. Sentence ③D. Sentence ④66.Which of the following might be the best title of the passage?A. Space Junk Harms Digital SystemsB. Artists' Proposal to Save SpaceC. A New Glimpse into Outer SpaceD. Test of Waste Collection NetsSection CDirections: Read the passage carefully. Fill in each blank with a proper sentence given in the box. Each sentence can be used only once. Note that there are two more sentences than, you need.How Colleges Can Measure Up in Teaching "Critical Thinking"After becoming president of Purdue University in 2013, Mitch Daniels asked the teaching staff to prove that their students have actually achieved one of higher education's most important goals: critical thinking skills. 67 Mr. Daniels needed to justify the high cost of attending Purdue to its students and their families. After all, the percentage of Americans who say a college degree is "very important" has fallen dramatically in the last 5-6 years.Purdue now has a pilot test to assess students' critical thinking skills. 68 However, they need not worry so much. The results of a recent experiment showed that professors could use standard grading scale to measure how well students did in three key areas: critical thinking, written communication and language literacy.69 The organizers of the experiment concluded that far fewer students were achieving at high levels on critical thinking than they were doing for written communication or language literacy. And that conclusion is based only on students nearing graduation.American universities, despite their global reputation for excellence in teaching, have only begun to demonstrate what they can produce in real-world learning. Knowledge-based degrees are still important, but employers are demanding advanced thinking skills from college graduates. 70TV. Summary WritingDirections: Read the following passage. Summarize the main idea and the main point(s) of the passage in no more than 60 -words. Use your own words as far as possible.New Research on Kids' Poor Math AchievementTf the thought of a math test makes you break out in a cold sweat, Mom or Dad may be partly to blame, according to the new research published in Psychological Science.A team of researchers found that children of math-anxious parents learned less math over the school year and were more likely to be math-anxious themselves——but only when these parents provided frequent help on the child's math homework.Previous research from this group has established that when teachers are anxious about math, their students learn less mathduring the school year. The current study is novel in that it establishes a link between parents' and children's math anxiety. These findings suggest that adults' attitudes toward math can play an important role in children's math achievement.“We often don't think about how important parents5 own attitudes are in determining their children's academic achievement. But our work suggests that if a parent is walking around saying 6 Oh, 1 don't like math' or 'this stuff makes me nervous/ kids pick up on this messaging and it affects their success,explained Beilock, professor in psychology."Math-anxious parents may be less effective in explaining math concepts to children, and may not respond well when children make a mistake or solve a problem in a novel way," added Levine, Beilock's colleague.438 first- and second-grade students and their primary caregivers participated in the study. Children were assessed in math achievement and math anxiety at both the beginning and end of the school year. As a control, the team also assessed reading achievement, which they found was not related to parents5math anxiety. Parents completed a questionnaire about their own nervousness and anxiety around math and how often they helped their children with math homework.The researchers believe the linl< between parents' math anxiety and children's math performance stems more from math attitudes than genetics.V.

US shows began their entrance into the Chinese market with Friends, but Prison Break pushed interest in US TV series to a new height largely thanks to Miller’s wonderful acting. Now Miller’s back to act in The Flash.

three passages.Each passage is followed by several questions or unfinished statements.For each of them there are four choices marked A,B,C and D.Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage you have just read.(A)“The main surprise is how widespread the effects were,”says senior author Martin Genner,an evolutionary ecologist at the University of Bristol.“We found the same trend across all groups of marine life we looked at, from small forms of plants and animals to marine invertebrates(无脊椎动物),and from fish to seabirds.”The new study builds on early evidence of the impact of climate changes on the distribution,diversity and seasonality of marine species.Based on those findings,Genner’s team reasoned that marine species should be doing well at the leading(pole-ward)edge of their ranges but poorly at their trailing(equator-ward)side.They also realized that existing global species distribution databases could be used to test this idea.Based on a thorough search of available data in the literature,the researchers now report on a global analysis of diversity trends for304widely distributed marine species over the last century.The results show that—just as predicted—diversity increases have been most obvious where sampling has taken place at the pole-ward side of species ranges,while diversity declines have been greatest where sampling has taken place at the equator-ward side of species ranges.The findings show that large-scale changes in the diversity of species are well underway.They also suggest that marine species haven’t managed to adapt to warmer conditions.The researchers therefore suggest that projected sea temperature increases of up to1.5°C over pre-industrial levels by2050will continue to lead to shifts in the diversity of marine species,including those of importance for coastal livelihoods.“This matters because it means that climate changes are not only leading to diversity changes,but naturally affecting the performance of species locally,”Genner says.“We’re seeing fewer and fewer species like emperorpenguins as water becomes too warm at their equator-ward edge,and we see some fish such as European seabassgrowing well at their pole-ward edge where historically they were uncommon.”The results show that the effects of climate changes on marine species are highly uniform and not a little.“While some marine life may benefit as the ocean warms,the findings point toward a future in which we will alsosee continued loss of marine life,”Genner says.56.According to the passage,what did Genner’s team conclude?A.Climate changes have a great effect on the growth of fish.B.Species data can be used to test the study.C.Arctic marine species grow better than those at the equator.D.Marine species can adapt to the warm environment.57.Which of the following is true according to the passage?A.Some sea creatures may benefit from warming oceans.B.Climate Changes have little to do with the richness of species.C.The effect of climate changes on marine life has improved.D.Marine life will benefit from ocean warming in the future.58.What does the underlined part of the last paragraph mean?A.similar and slightB.nowhere and a little bitC.everywhere and enormousD.nothing and uneventful59.Which of the following might be the best title of the passage?A.Study of the Disappearance of Marine life.B.Impact of Climate Changes on Marine Species.C.Analysis of Species Distribution Database.parative Analysis of Ocean Temperatures.(B)Travel with Your Pet to

songs, Victorian Londoners loved to have fun.As performance managers came up with increasingly well-designed ways to make money from the capital’s huge potential audience,Victorians effectively invented the modern leisure industry–including theme parks,pubs and professional football.As a new book by historian Lee Jackson explains,the hunt for profit involves surrounding morality,class and empire.So where did Victorians go for fun? And what still exists today?Dancing Rooms:Argyll Rooms,PiccadillyIt’s now a building site near Leicester Square,but when the Argyll Rooms lost its licence in1878,there was a riot(暴乱).Drunken students were so angry at the closure of their favourite place that they took to the streets. The Argyll closed as the dance craze came to an end,and Bignell turned the space into the Trocadero music hall. It kept that name through the20th century when it was transformed into one of London’s most tasteless tourist attractions.The site currently awaits development into a hotel.Pleasure gardens:Gremorne Gardens,ChelseaGremorne was run by three West End pub owners,popular among the young people then.It closed in1877 after losing its licence.Pleasure gardens more generally lost their meaning of existence with the establishment of public parks.London’s rapid growth meant the valuable land was usually sold to big companies for other purposes, which is why so little of London’s great pleasure gardens remain.Pleasure gardens were also overshadowed by larger exhibition grounds such as the Crystal Palace,which tried to find a way of balancing entertainment with cultural education.Little physically remains of the Crystal Palace itself,which moved to Sydenham from Hyde Park in1854,but the grand200-acre grounds still exist as a public park.On the site of the Methodist Central Hall was a short-lived attraction that attempted to transport the seaside to central London.It was railways that made Margate and Southend accessible to Londoners,and some of the leisure activities peculiar to the seaside soon made it back to the capital.Football grounds:Craven Cottage,Stevenage Road,FulhamFulham FC,London’s oldest professional football club,still works at their first ground,built by the Victorians in1896.Versions of the sport had been around forcenturies,but it was the Victorians who created the game and then professionalized it.This led to enclosed grounds where spectators paid for admittance,with the income spenton acquiring new players.The modern game was born.63.Which of the following is not similar in meaning to“took to the streets”in Para.2?A.gathered together in the streetsB.enjoyed window shoppingC.went outside on the streetsD.protested on the streets64.The reason why fewer great pleasure gardens are left in London is that.A.people built more factoriesB.they

"We found the same trend across all groups of marine life we looked at, from small forms of plants and animals to marine invertebrates (无脊椎动物), and from fish to seabirds."The new study builds on early evidence of the impact of climate changes on the distribution,diversity and seasonality of marine species. Based on those findings,Genner's team reasoned that marine species should be doing well at the leading(pole-ward)edge of their ranges but poorly at their trailing(equator-ward)side. They also realized that existing global species distribution databases could be used to test this idea.Based on a thorough search of available data in the literature,the researchers now report on a global analysis of diversity trends for 304 widely distributed marine species over the last century. The results show that - just as predicted - diversity increases have been most obvious where sampling has taken place at the pole-ward side of species ranges,while diversity declines have been greatest where sampling has taken place at the equator-ward side of species ranges. The findings show that large-scale changes in the diversity of species are well underway. They also suggest that marine species haven't managed to adapt to warmer conditions. Theresearchers therefore suggest that projected sea temperature increases of up to 1.5°C over pre-industrial levels by 2050 will continue to lead to shifts in the diversity of marine species, including those of importance for coastal livelihoods."This matters because it means that climate changes are not only leading to diversity changes, but naturally affecting the performance of species locally," Genner says. "We're seeing fewer and fewer species like emperor penguins as water becomes too warm at their equator-ward edge,and we see some fish such as European seabass growing well at their pole-ward edge where historically they were uncommon."The results show that the effects of climate changes on marine species arehighly uniform and not a little."While some marine life may benefit as the ocean warms,the findings point toward a future in which we will also see continued loss of marine life," Genner says.(1)According to the passage, what did Genner's team conclude?___A. Climate changes have a great effect on the growth of fish.B. Species data can be used to test the study.C. Arctic marine species grow better than those at the equator.D. Marine species can adapt to the warm environment.(2)Which of the following is true according to the passage?___A. Some sea creatures may benefit from warming oceans.B. Climate Changes have little to do with the richness of species.C. The effect of climate changes on marine life has improved.D. Marine life will benefit from ocean warming in the future.(3)What does the underlined part of the last paragraph mean?___A. similar and slightB. nowhere and a little bitC. everywhere and enormousD. nothing and uneventful(4)Which of the following might be the best title of the passage?___A. Study of the Disappearance of Marine life.B. Impact of Climate Changes on Marine Species.C. Analysis of Species Distribution Database.D.

Nicotine and other chemicals from the cigarette, at the same time, cause tightness of blood tubes, restricting blood flow. These effects on blood tubes lead to (35) ______ of blood tube walls, increasing the possibility of heart attacks and strokes.Many of the c hemicals inside cigarettes can activate dangerous (36) ______ in the body’s DNA that make cancers form. In fact, about one of every three cancer deaths in the United States is caused by smoking. And it’s not just lung cancer. Smoking can cause cancer in mu ltiple tissues and organs, as well as damaged eyesight and (37) ______ bones. It makes it harder for women to get pregnant. And in men, it can cause long-term damages of body functions.But for those who quit smoking, there’s a huge positive upside with al most (38) ______ and long-lasting physical benefits. A day after ceasing, heart attack risk begins to decrease as blood pressure and heart rates (39) ______. Lungs become healthier after about one month, with less coughing.

Priestly explains how the deep blue color of the assistant’s sweater was___31___ over the years from fashion shows to department stores and to the bargain bin in which the poor girl probably found her clothes.This top-down concept of the fashion business couldn’t be more out of date or in conflict with the mad world described in Overdressed, Elizabeth Cline’s three-year accusation of “fast fashion”. In the last decade or so,___32___ in technology have allowed mass-market labels such as Zara, H&M, and Uniqlo to react to trends more quickly and predict demand more ___33___. Quicker turnarounds mean less wasted stock, more frequent release, and more profit. These labels encourage style-conscious consumers to see clothes as disposable—meant to lastonly a wash or two, although they don’t advertise that—and to ___34___ their wardrobe( 衣橱) every few weeks. By offering on-trend items at dirt-cheap prices, Cline argues, these brands have controlled fashion cycles, shaking an industry long ___35___ to a seasonal pace.The ___36___ of this revolution, of course, are not limited to designers. For H&M to offer a $5.95 knit miniskirt in all its 2,300-plus stores around the world, it must rely on low-wage overseas labor, order in volumes that ___37___ natural resources, and use massive amounts of harmful chemicals.Towards the end of Overdressed, Cline introduced her ideal, a Brooklyn woman named Sarah Kate Beaumont, who since 2008 has made all of her own clothes—and beautifully. But as Cline is the first to note, it took Beaumont decades to perfect her craft; her example can’t be imitated.Though several fast-fashion companies have made efforts to ___38___ their impact on labor and the environment—including H&M, with its green Conscious Collection line—Cline believes lasting change can only be made by customers. She exhibits the idealism ___39___ to many advocates of sustainability, be it in food or in energy.

But that first moon landing might not have been such a(n) ___31___ moment if it weren’t for NASA’s clever PR (Public Relations) team.Richard Jurek is a marketing ___32___ and co-author of the book marketing the Moon: TheSelling of the Apollo Lunar Program. He says NASA’s move to real-time, open communication made the 1969 Apollo 11 landing “the first positive viral event that ___33___ the world’s attention.”Before NASA was established in 1958, rockets were the military’s territory; that secretiveness carried over into the space agency’s early days. At first, NASA followed a “fire in the tail” rule, only ____34____ a rocket’s launch when it was successfully in the air. But as the agency evolved, it started announcing more details about the Apollo program. It ____35____its astronauts, talked openly about mission goals and challenges, and shared launch times so people could watch. “If it had been run like it was under the military,” Jurek says, “we would not have had that sense of drama, that sense of involvement, that sense of wonder, that ____36____.” Instead, all the PR and press promotion in the years ahead of Apollo 11 brought the human spaceflight program into people’s living rooms and imaginations.As the drama neared its peak, NASA’s PR officials pushed for live TV broadcasts of the first humans to walk on the moon. Not everyone thought it was a good idea. The technology for live lunar broadcasts, and cameras small enough to keep the cargo ____37____, didn’t exist at the point. Some engineers worried that developing that equipment would ____38____ from efforts to achieve the landing itself. But NASA’s communications team argued that telling the story was as vital as the ____39____ itself. Live TV would bring the American people -- and international viewers -- along for the ride.Come landing day, which ____40____ fell on a Sunday, more than half a billion people worldwide crowded around TVs and radios for the historic moment. “We were able to come together and do something that was exciting and interesting and brought the world together,” s ays David Meer-man Scott, marketing strategist and co-author of Marketing the Moon. “I don’t know that we’ve done anything like that since.”Keys: 31-35 HFBIC 36-40 KGEADSection BDirections: Fill in each blank with a proper word chosen from the box.

And there’s growing concern about the 31 health risks they pose to humans.The new analysis in the UK have discovered microplastics widely 32 across all 10 lakes and rivers sampled. More than 1,000 small pieces of plastic per litre were found in the River Tame, which was 33 last year as the most polluted place tested worldwide. Even in relatively remote places such as the Falls of Dochart and Loch Lomond in Scotland, two or three pieces per litre were found.Microplastics are not a 34 kind of plastic, but rather any type of small pieces of plastic that is less than 5 mm in length according to the U.S. National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration. They may 35 from a variety of sources, including cosmetics, clothing, and industrial processes.Humans are known to 36 the tiny plastic particles through food and water, but the possible health effects on people and ecosystems have yet to be determined. One study, in Singapore, has found that microplastics can 37 harmful microbes (微生物).Research by the National University of Singapore found more than 400 types of bacteria on 275 pieces of microplastic collected from local beaches. They included insects that cause gastroenteritis (肠胃炎)and wound 38 in humans.“Microplastics are being found 39 everywhere but we do not know the harm they could be doing,” said Christian Dunn at Bangor University, Wales, who led the work. “It’s no use looking back in 20 years’ time and saying: ‘If only we’d realized just how bad it was.’ We need to be monitoring our waters now and we need to think, as a country and a world, how we can be reducing our 40 on plastic.”Keys: 31-35 GAKHI 36-40 DECBFSection BDirections: Fill in each blank with a proper word chosen from the box.

In today's modern world, most of us are ___31___ with so-called time-saving devices and technological advancements and work less both at the office and at home. But why do we still feel busier?A study by Derek Thompson on the “myth" of being busy suggests that while ___32___ brought us convenience, it also brought us new headaches. Consider the idea of FOMO (fear of missing out). Knowing exactly what we're missing out makes us feel guilty or anxious about the ___33___ of our time and our ability to use it effectively.While being informed is important, it can lead to anxiety about keeping up with the times. If you find yourself unable to stop scrolling through Twitter, turn off the phone and take a mental break. Practice JOMO (joy of missing out), a(n) ___34___ on life that's a direct contradiction to FOMO. Get rid of feelings of guilt and “shoulds" and replace them with mindfulness and living in the moment.Another thing technology has ___35___ us is the blurring(难以区分)between work and downtime. While constant connection has made the workday much more flexible, it's also harder to turn off at the end of the day. Always being "on" is a(n) ___36___ state of mind. Consider putting a hard stop on media and electronic devices an hour or two before bed.Of course, if you want to move up the corporate ladder and get a bigger paycheck, working long hours has long been a ___37___ strategy. But if you don't have passion for your job or care about what you do, you might just be working yourself into more ___38___.People working the same hours feel completely different levels of time pressure depending on their passion. If most of the hours are spent doing something you don't feel ___39___ about, it's no wonder you start to feel out of control and anxious about your time. Taking back control of your time can ease this mental stress. Therefore, your time management goal shouldn't be to figureout how to do more, but ___40___ to figure out how to want less.Keys: 31-35 JAEHG 36-40 KIBFCSection BDirections: Fill in each blank with a proper word chosen from the box.

It is generally acknowledged in the field that dreams people have during this time betweenchildhood and full adulthood, that’s around 30, are the strongest and most influential. Yet not enough is known about the repeated patterns of dreaming. Researchers are still trying to answer a basic question: How does dreaming relate to the life experiences and developmental challenges?G. William Domhoff and Adam Schneider, at theUniversityofCalifornia, help to answer this question by examining the lengthy dream series of two individuals, “Izzy” and “Jasmine”. Izzy provided a collection of 4, 329 dream reports from between the ages of 12 and 25, while Jasmine provided 664 dreams recorded between the ages of 14 and 25.Large collections of dreams like these pose challenges to researchers. Until recently, the means of studying dream series was to employ a team of recorders who take the time to code each dream for a predetermined(预先确定的)number of content categories, and then compare their results. Nowadays, digital technologies enable the analysis of language usage in dreams with high speed, accuracy, and objectivity. This marks a revolutionary advance in the science of dreaming. However,itcan only lead so far.To gain more specific and detailed insights, Domhoff and Schneider tailored word strings(词串)for each dreamer, mixing elements of traditional research with digital tools for analyzing large data sets. For Izzy theseword strings included “family and s”, “celebrities” and “fantasy”, while the word strings they created for Jasmine included “familiar places,” electrical equipment” and “music”. The researchers used these word strings to identify connections between their dreams and real lives. Surprisingly, the results of the analysis revealed a great deal of consistency(一致性)and continuity in both sets of dreams. Izzy pays much attention to pop culture, and has affection for famous actors. Jasmine is an accomplished musician and performer.“The frequencies of dream elements show the intensity(强度)of the dreamer’s personal concern with that element in waking thought,” Domhoff and Schneider conclude. For anyone who still claims dreaming is merely random nonsense from the brain and mental world, these findings are hard to explain away.4. What do psychologists agree with about dreams?A. Dreams are influenced by life experiences.B. Dreaming is never nonsense from the brain.C. Dreams in one’s teens and twenties are strongest.D The patterns of dreaming are usually repeated.5. What does “it” underlined in paragraph 3 refer to?A. The collection of dreams.B. Research into dreaming.C. The digital method.D. The challenge for psychologists.6.

Life experiences: elements of mental worldCIt was New Year time, but I wasn’tlooking forward to it. That winter, my mother and my stepfather moved ourfamily toSouthern California. My brother and I were leaving our ruralAlabamabehind. This would be our first New Year away fromAlabama. My mother took toCalifornialike a swan to a royal lake. My athletic little brother, Paul, was keyed up at a climate that allowed him to go to the beach whenever he wanted.I, however, was a fat child with heavy southern pronunciation. My first day in the new class, I introduced myself in a low voice. The moment I opened my mouth to speak, the whole class burst into laughter, “He talks funny.” It was so frustrating that I went to place a call to Granny Smith after school, who was my biggest support, But I didn’t get through.On Sunday evening, the phone rang. It was Granny. She often took advantage of the discounted long-distance rates on Sundays. She said she’d shipped a New Year package. Sure enough, it arrived. Surprised at the box, large enough to hold a small refrigerator, we eagerly tore it open. The smell of Granny’s house filled the room: a combination of fried meat, sausages, furniture polish and decorations. Her house was tiny and always filled withtackyholiday decorations and homemade food before New Year. But in my childhood eyes, it was precious and fantastic.There were countless tins and containers. We open hem to discover piles of holiday treats. She even included our traditional candy bats. The box was as bottomless as a magical box. There, beneath all these, was familiar holiday.Every New Year that we spent inCalifornia, the postal service would call and say our package was arrived. Over the years, many treasures arrived in the box. For me, it’s always been the best part of the holiday.8. How did the author’s brother feel when they were moving toCalifornia?A. Indifferent.B. Joyful.C. Appreciative.D. Disappointed.9. Why did the author’s classmates laugh at him?A. He spoke in a low voice.B. He made a humorous talk.C. He looked overweight.D. He had a strong accent.10. What does the underlined word “tacky” probably mean?A. Suitable.B. Expensive.C. Cheap.D. Attractive.11. Which of the following can be the best title of the text?A. Granny’s Care PackageB. An UnforgettableHolidayC. Our Move toCaliforniaD. A Telephone Call from GrannyDIn many countries of the world, people can confidently tell youthe meaning of their town or city, but mostpeople who live inManchester,OxfordorBirminghamwould not be able to explain what the name of their city means. The name of every British town and city, however, has a long history.Two thousand years ago, most people living inBritainwere Celts. Even the word “Britain" is Celtic (凯尔特语).Then the Romans arrived and built camps which became cities called “castra". This is why there are so many place names inEnglandwhich end in "-chester" or “-caster"Manchester, for example.The Romans never reachedWalesorScotland, and many placenames there are Celtic. For example,Welsh place names that begin with “Llan" come from the Celtic word for "church".After the Romans leftBritain, it was attacked by the Anglo-Saxons who were from the area of Europe that is nowGermanyandHolland. The names of their villages often ended in “-ham" or “-ton". Some got their names from the leader of the village.SoBirminghamfor example, means "Beormund's village”The Anglo-Saxons were farmers and the landscape was very important to them, so we have villages called Upton (village on a hill)——a good place to build a village and Moreton (“village by a lake”)where floods could make life hard. Place names that end in “-ford" (a place where you could cross a river) also describe the location of Anglo-Saxon villages.Finally, in 1066EnglandbecameNorman—theNormansgave us the place name "grange", which means farm.And how aboutLondon? Experts cannot agree. The Romans called the city Londinium, but they were not the first inhabitants (居民). People once believed that theUnited Kingdom’s capital city got its name from the castle of a King called Lud but this is very unlikely. Our best guess today is that the name comes from a Celtic word meaning a fast-flowing river. Like a number of British place names, its history is lost in time.12. The origin of British place names is unfamiliar to many local people because ofA. the death of local languagesB. the long lost history of the namesC. their lack of interest in itD. the frequent changes to the names13. According to the article,Stratfordis most likely a town .A. on a hillB. near a castleC. beside a riverD. with a church14. Which of the following shows the correct order of the arrival of inhabitants inBritain?A. The Celts—The Romans—TheNormans—The Anglo SaxonsB. The Celts—The Romans—The Anglo Saxons—TheNormansC. The Romans—The Celts—The Anglo Saxons—TheNormansD. The Romans―The Anglo Saxons—The Celts—TheNormans15. What doesLondonmean in Celtic?A. RiverB. LondiniumC. LudD.

They were all left-handed, along with other famous people including Barack Obama. In fact, an estimated 13 percent of the world’s population (25)______ be left-handed.Most people are right-handed. This fact also seems to have held true (26)______ history. In 1977, scientists studied works of art made at various times starting with cave drawings from 15,000 B.C. and ending with paintings from the 1950s. Most of the people (27)______ (show) in these works of art are right-handed.Many researchers claim (28)______ (find)relationships between left-handedness and various physical and mental characteristics. However, (29)______ of these connections are very weak, and others have not been proven.What makes a person become right-handed rather than left-handed? As yet, no one really knows for sure. (30)______ ______ ______ reasons may be behind it, people’s attitudes toward left-handedness have changed a lot over the years. There are even a number of shops (31)______ (specialize)in selling products for left-handed people, such as left-handed scissors, can openers, guitars, and even a left-handed camera.In 1976, Left-Handers International, a group of left-handed people in Topeka, Kansas, in the United States, decided to start (32)______ annual event in order to clear up misunderstandings about left-handedness.(B)Motivating Students(33)______ ______ a young child might be nervous about starting school, he or she is often excited on the first day of school.

However, those people do not work in schools. The people who seemed to know the most about (40)______ motivates kids were researchers who work for companies that were advertising products such as toys and music for children.Section BDirections: Complete the following passage by using the words in the box. Each word canonly be used once. Note that there is one word more than you need.“Once we spread out into space and establish independent colonies, our future should be safe,”Stephen Hawking says.Stephen Hawking, one of the world’s most important scientists, believes that to __41__, humans must move into space.Today, the United States, India, China, and Japan are all planning to send astronauts back to Earth’s closest __42__:the moon. Each country wants to create space stations there between 2020 and 2030. These stations will __43__prepare humans to visit and later live on Mars or other Earth-like planets.Robert Zubrin, a rocket scientist, thinks humans should __44__ space. He wants to start with Mars. Why? There are several advantages:for one, sending people to the moon and Mars will allow us to learn a lot—for example, whether living on other planets is possible. Then, we can eventually__45__ new human societies on other planets. In addition, the __46__ we make for space travel in the fields of science, technology, medicine, and health can also benefit us here on Earth.But not everyone thinks sending humans into space is a(n)__47__ idea. Many say it’s too expensive to send people, even on a short __48__. And most space trips are not short. A one-way trip to Mars, for example, would take about six months. People travelling this kind ofdistance face a number of health problems. Also, for many early space __49__, life would be extremely difficult. On the moon’s surface, for example, the air and the sun’s rays are very dangerous. People would have to stay indoors most of the time.Despite these __50__, sending people into space seems certain. In the future, we might see lunar(月球上的) cities and maybe even new human cultures on other planets.III. Reading ComprehensionSection ADirections:For each blank in the following passage there are four words or phrases marked A, B, C and D. Fill in each blank with the word or phrase that best fits the context.When you say that someone has a good memory, what exactly do you mean?Are you saying that the person has fast recall or that he or she__51__ information quickly? Or maybe you just mean that the person remembers a lot about her or his childhood. The truth is that it is __52__ to say exactly what memory is. Even scientists who have been studying memory for decades say they are still trying to __53__ exactly what it is. We do know that a particular memory is not just one thing stored somewhere in the brain. __54__, a memory is made up of bits and pieces of information stored all over the brain. Perhapsthe best way to __55__ memory is to say that it is a process—a process of recording, storing, and getting back information. Practice and repetition can help to __56__ the pieces that make up our memory of that information.Memory can be __57__ affected by a number of things. __58__ nutrition can affect a person’s ability to store information. Excessive alcohol use can also weaken memory andcause permanent __59__ to the brain over the long term. A vision or hearing problem may affect a person’s ability to notice certain things, thus making it __60__ to register information in the brain.When people talk about memory, they often__61__ short-term memory and long-term memory. If you want to call a store or an office that you don’t call often, you look in the telephone book for the number. You dial the number, and then you forget it! You use your short-term memory to remember the number. Your short-term memory lasts about 30 seconds, or half a minute. __62__, you don’t need to look in the telephone book for your best friend’s number, because you already know it. This number is in your long-term memory, which __63__ information about things you have learned and experienced through the years.Why do you forget things sometimes? The major reason for forgetting something is that you did not learn it well enough __64__. For example, if you meet some new people and right away forget their names, it is because you did not __65__ the names at the first few seconds when you heard them.51. A. collects B. processes C. publishes D. absorbs52. A. necessary B. important C. difficult D. convenient53. A. figure out B. take out C. put out D. give out54. A. After all B.Instead C.By contrast D.

A. restore B. record C. replace D. respondSection BDirections: Read the following three passages. Each passage is followed by several questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage you have just read.(A)In 1991, high in the mountains of Europe, hikers made a discovery:a dead man partly frozen in the ice. However, the police investigation soon became a scientific one. Carbon dating indicated that the man died over 5,300 years ago. Today he is known as the Iceman and hasbeen nicknamed “Ötzi” for the Ötztal Alps where he was found. Kept in perfect condition by the ice, he is the oldest complete human body on the earth.Scientists think he was an important person in his society. An examination of his teeth and skull tells us that he was not a young man.His arms were not the arms of a laborer. His dagger (匕首)was made of stone, but he carried a copper axe. This implies wealth, and he was probably from the upper classes.We know he could make fire, as a fire-starting kit was discovered with him. Even the food he had eaten enabled scientists to reason exactly where in Italy he lived.But why did the Iceman die in such a high and icy place? There have been many theories. Some said he was a lost shepherd. Others thought he was killed in a religious ceremony. Over the years since he was found, tiny scientific discoveries have led to great changes in our understanding of the story of the Iceman. The newest scientific information indicates that he was cruelly murdered. “Even five years ago, the story was that he fled up there and walked around in the snow and probably died of exposure,”said Klaus Oeggl, a scientist at the University of Innsbruc k in Austria. “Now i t’s all changed. It’s more like a…crime scene.”In June 2001, an X-ray examination of the body showed a small dark shape beneath the Iceman’s left shoulder. It was the stone head of an arrow. It had caused a deadly injury that probably killed him very quickly. In 2003, an Australian scientist discovered the blood of four different people on the clothes of the Iceman. Did a bloody fight take place before his murder? Injuries on his hand and head indicate that this may be true. One theory, put forward by archeologist(考古学家)WalterLeitner, says that the Iceman’s murder was the end of a fight for power among his people. However, this idea is certainly debatable.66. What does “Ötzi”refer to ________.A. the oldest perfectly preserved human bodyB. the most famous touris t attractionÖtztal AlpsC. an important discovery by the police of EuropeD. the person living in Ötztal Alps for a long time67. After the examination of the Iceman, scientists believe that ________.A. he died at an early ageB. he made a fire-starting kitC. he had a higher social statusD. he was born at a village in Italy68. According to Klaus Oeggl, the Iceman died from________.A. a serious diseaseB. a snow disasterC. a religious faithD. a terrible murder69. What is the passage mainly talking about?A. The life of ancient people in the AlpsMountains.B. The cruel religious life of the Europeans in the past.C. The discovery andpossiblecause of death of the Iceman.D. The application of carbon dating technology to the Iceman.(B)Cambridge Schools Conference 2015 - book your place todayInspiring teachers, inspiring learners:How we prepare learners for a lifetime of learning.Dear ColleagueThe Cambridge Schools Conference is taking place in Colombo, Sri Lanka from 3-5 Jan Booking for the conference closes on 24December 2014, book now to secure your place.Feedback from schools that attended our recent conference in Cambridge includes:“Outstanding keynote presentation by Guy Claxton”Roland Ebiye-Koripamo, Cita International School “A Cambridge Conference shoots up the expectation level of the representativesand when it not just reaches that level but surpasses it with excellence, you define it as the Cambridge Schools Conference, 2015!”SeemaAnis, Al Waha International School, Jeddah “I have met so many interesting people.

The conference encourages various views on lifelong learning.C. The conference provides the most effective approaches on lifelong learning.(C)Big trees are incredibly important ecologically. For a start, they provide food for countless other species and shelter for many animals. With their tall branches in the sun, they capturevast amounts of energy. This allows them to produce massive crops of fruit and flowers that sustain much of the animal life in the forest.Only a small number of tree species have the genetic abilityto grow really big. The biggest are native to North America, but big trees grow all over the globe, from the tropics to the forests of the high latitudes(纬度). To achieve giant size, a tree needs three things:the right place to establish its seedling, good growing conditions and lots of time with low adult death rate. Lose any of these, and you will lose your biggest trees.In some parts of the world, populations of big trees are dwindling because their seedlings cannot survive. In southern India, for instance, an aggressive non-native bush, Lantana camara, is invading the floor of many forests. Lantana grows so thickly that young trees often fail to take root. With no young trees to replace them, it is only a matter of time before most of the big trees disappear.Without the right growing conditions, trees cannot get really bigand there is some evidence to suggest tree growth could slow in a warmer world, particularly in environments that are already warm. Having worked for decades at La Selva Biological Station in Puerto Viejo de Sarapiqui, Costa Rica, David and Deborah Clark and colleagues have shown that tree growth there declines marked ly in warmer years. “During the day, their growth shuts down when it gets too warm, and at night they consume more energy because their metabolic(新陈代谢的)rate increases,” explains David Clark. With less energy produced in warmer years and more being consumed just to survive, there is even less energy available for growth.The Clarks’ theory, if correct, means tropical forests would shrink over time.The largest, oldest trees would progressively die off and tend not to be replaced. According to the Clarks,this might cause a destabilization of the climate; as older trees die, forests would release some of their stored carbon into the atmosphere, causing a cycle of further warming, forest shrinkage and carbon emissions.Besides, big trees face threats from elsewhere.73. According to the passage, big trees make great contributions to theecosystem because ________.A. they can capture large amounts of energyB. they determine the change of global climateC. they provide the essentials for many creaturesD. they can avoid a new cycle of further warming74. All the following factors are a must for making big trees EXCEPT ______.A. no deadly damageB. genetic contributionC. ideal environmentfor growthD. high-latitude location75. The word “dwindling” (paragraph3)is closest in meaning to “______”.A. explodingB. growingC. changingD. declining76. What is the best title of the passage?A. Big trees in trouble.B. Advantages of big trees.C. Results of big trees’ disappearing.D. Importanceof big trees to humans.77. What will the author most probably discuss after the last paragraph?A. More threats to the existence of big tress.B. The effect of human activities on big trees.C. Benefits of big trees to the whole atmosphere.D. Comparison between common trees and big ones.Section CDirections:Read the passage carefully. Then answer the questions or complete the statements in the fewest possible words.Different people may find that different learning methods work best for them. While some would turn to tutoring in order to get better grades, others choose to join study groups. In fact, many universities encourage their students to form study groups and make good use of them.“Two heads are better than one.” That’s the simple idea behind study gro ups. By participating in a study group, students can benefit from some of their best academic resources:other students. They get to pick each other’s brains and improve their own understanding of different problems. Moreover, study groups can create the slightly tense atmosphere in which it’s good to study. For example, some students tend to procrastinate (拖延) when they are studying by themselves; however, by joining a study group, they get to observe their peers who are working diligently and are likely to thus have motivation for working harder.Study groups work best when they are small, but not too small—four to five participants is about right. And it’s necessary to make sure everyone has the same goal, to prepare for a particular test, to discuss class readings or to review the week’s lecture notes. Besides,socializing in the group would make studying more fun as long as it took up only a small portion of group study time.In addition, to maximize the efficiency, some study groups like to assign members certain roles, and thus efficiency will be promoted. Besides an organizer, who gets group members to agree to a common purpose and a convenient time and place, there often is a group member playing the role of a source-seeker, whose duty is to remind group members to identify their sources. For instance, when a group member says “I read somewhere that ... ,” the source-seeker should ask for specifics. This person reminds the group that it’s important to know who said what and where it was said. And a gatekeeper, who tries to make sure that all group members are participating, may ask a direct question to help a shy person participate, or find a way to get a dominating member to listen.(Note:Answer the questions or complete the statements in NO MORE THAN EIGHT WORDS.)78. Many universities encourage students to take advantage of ________ for better grades rather than learning alone.79. Peers are not only the best academic resources but also motivate each other to _________ when learning in groups.80. According to paragraph 3, besides the small size, what are the other two factors that could help a study group work best?81. All the members in the study group will be assigned different roles because people believe that it will result in _______.第II卷(共47分)I.
