home，her health was so poor that she couldn't play or go to school．While the seven﹣year﹣old often felt hopeless，a visit from a special guest helped her forget，just for a moment．"Seeing Petie helps take her attention away from what she's been missing．And，Petie is very special because there's only one Petie，"said Eric Jacobs，Kylie's dad．Petie is a little therapy（治疗）horse．He's bigger than a therapy dog，but much smaller than a horse．The 25﹣year﹣old horse visits children in Akron Children's Hospital and Rainbow Babies & Children Hospital in Cleveland．He's beenvolunteering for eighteen years and has no plans to stop．"A visit from Petie is kind of fun and something they weren't expecting，"owner Sue Miller said．"It just takes away why they are there．"Miller and her husband，who own a horse therapy center，got Petie more than eighteen years ago．They first let him visit schools and nursing homes．Then Miller wondered if Petie could help at children's hospitals and she came to the hospital in Akrn．At first the officials were uncertain about his performance，but they decided to allow Petie to visit in a nearby building．As trust grew，he moved to the main hospital．Petie is not just able to make children cry with joy and forget their problems．Miller remembers a moment when Petie walked up to the bedside of an unconscious boy，then dropped his head to gently rub the boy's hand．Without waking，the boy started petting Petie．As everyone watched in silence，a doctor noticed that Petie slowed his breathing to match the boy's．"It was just a beautiful moment，"said Miller．"I am

waste by 20% within a decade while also creating thousands of jobs and could save consumers billions of dollars．The report，which comes just months after a federal（联邦政府的）action aimed at cutting food waste by 50% by 2030，offers a 27﹣point list of ways to address the problem．One of the three categories of food waste solutions is prevention．The measures put forward in the report mainly center on preventing food waste in the first place．The report suggests food companies should adjust packaging to discourage waste．Portions（一份的量）should be smaller and packaging should be designed to prevent food from going bad．Distributors，those who supply shops and companies with food，should use new technology to reduce food waste during transport．Prevention methods would help save roughly $8 billion and prevent 2.6 million tons of food from being wasted，according to the report．Recovery solutions focus on new methods of taking food that would otherwise be thrown away and using it for other purposes before it goes bad．The report also recommends providing tax encouragement for people who donate food to the poor，softening regulations on food donations and processing food to prolong its life．The report also encourages recycling solutions﹣recycling food once it is no longer edible．Food waste causes a lot of related problems from food insecurity to climate change．At present an average American household of four wastes more than two million calories of food every year．At the same time，other American families remain food﹣insecure and rely on cheap and unhealthy food．Carbon dioxide produced in the process of growing crops and raising animals such as cows and sheep also speedsup global warming．Nearly 10% of the greenhouse gas in the U．S．relates to agriculture，according to a report from the U．S．Environmental Protection Agency （EPA）．Problems connected with food waste are only expected to become more serious in coming years as the global population grow quickly and climate change reduces crop production．Crop production in some areas of the world faces a nearly 20% reduction thanks to climate change．The new report offers a path to approaches to meeting the federal government food waste goal．The government action﹣called for by the EPA and the U．S．Department of Agriculture﹣offered high ambition but few important details．"Let's feed people，"said EPA Administrator Gina McCarthy announcing the goal，"Not landfills．"62．We can learn from the passage that the report suggests．A．reducing food waste to half of its present level in 2030B．advancing packaging for convenience during transportC．adjusting portions to prevent food from being wastedD．working out new direct trade routes for distributors63．Which of the following can be viewed as a recovery solution？A．Reusing food that cannot be eaten any more．B．Making dog food out of unpopular human food．C．Giving quality food to school children for free．D．Taxing those who don't wasted food at a lower rate．64．Which of the following may be the direct cause of reduction in crop production？A．Growing population．B．Food waste．C．Climate change．D．Food insecurity．65．According to the passage，the author probably thinks the new report is．A．debatableB．imperfectC．helpfulD．ambitious．66．（10分）Good news for people who always fail to see the silver lining on clouds．A report in New Scientist，suggests that a tendency to get down when life knocks you down can be good for you．A growing number of warning voices from the world of mental﹣health research are claiming that it isn't a good idea to use antidepressant （抗抑郁剂）to help do away with unhappiness caused by marriage breakdown，death or redundancy（下岗）because"they fear that the increasing tendency to treat normal sadness as if it were a disease is playing fast and loose with an important part of our biology．Sadness serves an evolutionary（进化的）purpose．"Jerome Wakefield，a clinical social worker at New York University explains that depressive feelings are part of our biological makeup．"When you find something deep in us biologically，you should believe that it was selected because it could bring us some advantage，otherwise we wouldn't have been burdened with it．I think that one of the functions of strong negative emotions is to stop our normal functioning，to make us focus on something else for a while．"While Paul Keedwell，a psychiatrist at Cardiff University claims that ever full﹣blown depression may have its purpose，saying the sufferer from the effects of long﹣term stress．"Without a mental pause，"he argues，"you might stay in a state of chronic（慢性的）stress until you're exhausted or dead．"Although it is important to be careful when talking about depression，having the upside traced in your downside will have an irresistible（不可抵抗的）appeal to all those who take the phrase"cheer up，love，it might never happen"as a personal insult （侮辱）．It will be manna especially for creative types，who have long doubted that crying a lot is a sign of their inward genius（天赋）．In the tests at Harvard，New Scientist reports，people with signs of depression performed better at creative task，especially after receiving feedback that was designed to reinforce their lowspirits．Although it is old﹣fashioned to claim that creativity is connected to gloomy moods and a grey outlook on life，all the best works are written by some grim﹣faced （面孔铁青的）people with a heart full of anxiety．Richard Yates has written seven novels and two collections of short stories，each more hopelessly miserable（悲催的）than the last．After years of writing about his toothless，drunken mother，his experiences in the second world war and divorces，Yates finally rounds things off in Disturbing the Peace by fictionalizing how a cocktail of alcoholism and psychotropic drugs had him take off his clothes and wander the streets of LA，giving all his money to beggars．it is miserable﹣but so readable．So，although the grand majority will never write anything as good as Yates，there is something to be gained from looking on the dark side．In a work environment，for example，discontented people tend to have greater success than those of a sunny nature．It's enough to make a pessimist dissolve into a Cheshire Cat grin（咧嘴笑）．66．Mental﹣health researchers regard sadness as．A．a contributing factor to successB．a ray of hope to people in difficultiesC．a biological part of human beingsD．a normal disease of the depressed67．What can we learn from the passage？A．The number of people using antidepressants is on the rise．B．Writers are at high risk of suffering from depression．C．Discontented workers may be more popular than the sunny ones．D．Jerome Wakefield and Paul Keedwell have similar views about depression．68．What does the underlined word"manna"in Paragraph 3 mean？A．Gift．B．Pain．C．Reward．D．Challenge69．The story of Richard Yates is used to show that depressive men tend to be．A．unfortunate B．creative C．serious D．brave70．Which would be the best title of the

is your thing，then social work is the field for you．Of course，just being polite and holding the door open for others won't be classified as professional work．Social work involves giving back to society a little bit of what you feel you owe to it．It is often divided into two different branches．You can either help society physically of financially．Some people who do not have money to give back contribute with their time and energy．There are several cases where we see that people go for teaching poor children and conducting drives on social awareness．Many others，with more money but less time，prefer financing social work bodies by handing out large sums of money as donations to help them run．An attitude of service is important as the point of social work is to help people grow．It is all about serving people who are financially difficult and need your support to be able to work on the same basis with the rest of the world．The people that social workers are serving are clearly for one reason or the other，disadvantaged．By helping out，the basic idea is to reduce this difference between them and the rest of the world．So the person who has taken on the task needs to keep in mind that ensuring equality is an important part of their work．It needs to be done with the goal of making sure that at the end of it，every person has an equal chance．Integrity（正直）is one of the central values because it is integrity itself that reflects the true spirit of social work．Integrity is a feeling which is borne out of moral correctness and the need to keep to one's value systems．When integrity is made a part of the central values，only then can the social work be considered a success．Gone are the days when this was left to those with little time and few skills which a great success can be made out of in the job market．Social service today requires a great deal of ability，hard work and a drive to do things better，much as is the case with any teamwork．An unskillful person most certainly cannot go，nor is any less than the best performance demanded by those who are in it．The field of social work is a job that needs much skill nowadays and it requires nothing but the best performers．But all through，one should remember the central value of the existence of social work，which is to help the poor so that they too may become able world citizens．About Social Work第七部分书面表达（满分20分）阅读下面短文，并按照要求用英语写一篇150词左右的文章．101．（20分）Eating snacks can be a good way to stop your hunger and get the vitamins your body needs．But as teenagers you need to pay attention to what you eat．Choosing healthy snacks means shopping smartly．Be careful of the health claims on food packages．Words on the package like"all natural"or"pure"don't always mean the food is good for you．Be careful of low﹣fat food claims，too．If the fat has been cut back，the amount of sugar in the food may have been increased to keep the food tasting good．Many low﹣fat foods have nearly as many calories as their full﹣fat versions．Here are some ways to make healthy snacking part of your everyday routine．★Keep plenty of fresh fruit and vegetables at home，so you can take them with you when you go out．★Satisfy your cravings with healthier foods．If you are crazy about chocolate，try a hot chocolate drink instead of a chocolate bar．If you want something salty，eatwhole grain biscuits instead of potato chips．Besides，it is wise for you to replace ice ﹣cream with yogurt．★Pay attention to the amount you eat．As with everything，moderation（适度）is the key to smart snacking．【写作内容】1．用约30个单词概述上述信息的主要内容；2．简述摄取过多脂肪和热量的负面影响；3．你对"零食控"的建议．【写作要求】1．写作过程中不能直接引用原文语句；2．作文中不能出现真实姓名和学校名称；3．不必写标题．【评分标准】内容完整，语音规范，语篇连贯，词数适当．参考词汇：肥胖obesity．2016-2017学年江苏省南通市启东中学高二（下）期中英语试卷参考答案与试题解析第一部分听力（共两节，满分20分）1．（1分）What
