Grace Moretz is the waitress and Isabelle Huppert is the one who admires her. Thanks to them, Greta winds up being far more enjoyable than it has any right to be.The AftermathThe Aftermath is one of the few World WarⅡ-related films.

The Oscar-winning Brie Larson stars as Carol Danvers, a US Air Force fighter pilot, while Samuel L Jackson, as usual, plays Nick Fury.DumboDumbo is a classic Disney cartoon, who has big ears and there have been plenty of those kind of movies in recent years.Burtonalways has inspirations to direct such kind of movies from Edward Scissorhands to Miss Peregrine’s Home for Peculiar Children.

Which film is better for a 7-year-old kid to watch?A. The AftermathB. Captain MarvelC. GreteD. Dumbo3. Where can you most probably read the text?A. Reader’s DigestB. NatureC. Scientific AmericanD. National GeographicBThe prevalence of melanoma (黑素瘤) has been rapidly rising around the world for nearly a century. While some of the increase may be due to better detection, researchers also believe it’s because we’re spending more time outdoors in the sun, vacationing to warmer climates during the winter and using tanning beds. That rise is concerning, since melanoma is the most dangerous kind of skin cancer.Most of us know to cover up and apply sunscreen on hot, sunny days, but when fall arrives, we tend to drop those habits. Experts warn that’s a mistake. Though there’s less need for sun protection after summer ends, exposure to UV rays still adds up.What precautions you should take to defend against melanoma during the cooler months depends on where you are in the world. That’s because the further away you are from the equator, the more UV rays weaken in the winter. “In southern England or Canada, the daily dose of UVA on a clear summer day is 6.5 times higher than on a clear winter day,” says Professor Brian Diffey of the British Association of Dermatologists. “People in those countries typically receive only about 5% of their annual UV exposure in the winter months.”But no matter where you are, even during colder, lower risk months, it’s a mistake to put your sun-protection habits on ice. “It’s important to wear sun-screen when there is a lot of glare from the snow,” says Victoria Mar, director of the Victorian Melanoma Service at Alfred Hospital in Melbourne, Australia.Finally, you should monitor your moles(痣). “Early detection of melanoma is vital for successful treatment,” says Diffey. If it’s caught before it spreads to other parts of the body, the patient will have 99 % of chance to survive for five years. If it’s caught late, that can drop to 25%. Warning signs are a mole that’s changing size, shape or colour, or one that’s asymmetrical — sometimes referred to as “ugly duckling” moles. If you have concerns, talk to your doctor.4. What’s the main cause of the rise ofmelanoma?A. The climate change.B. Better detection.C. More exposure to the sun.D. The increase ofskin cancer.5.What’s a mistake according to experts?A. Applying sunscreen in summer.B. Wearing sun-screen when there is snow.C. Using sunscreen during lower risk months.D. Dropping sun-protection habits in winter.6. What can we learn from the last paragraph?A. Prevention is better than cure.B. Health is better than wealth.C. A disease known is half cured.D. When the sun comes in, the doctor comes out.7. What is the best title of the text?A. Detect Melanoma.B. Beware Winter Rays.C. Monitor Your Moles.D. Spend Less Time Outdoors.CIn the past, most people received their news from newspapers, magazines, radio and TV. But now, almost anyone can report and publish on the Internet and share it as news through social media. But the problemis that not all of the information is true and not all of the reporting is trustworthy.Howard Schneider, a former editor of the newspapersNewsday,started the Center for News Literacy (素养) at Stony Book University in 2007. The center has multiple projects, but the most famous one is a course to teach news literacy. The course trains students to look for various details that may indicate the truth of the story.Michelle Sheng is a third-year student at theUniversityofMichigan. Sheng finds that students either just stop reading the news or only take news from one source that they trust. "A lot of people are tired of the news. People are too busy to keep up with the news, and it is really easy to take whatever news is given to you because you don’t have the time to figure it out yourself,“ she says.For her part, Sheng recently created a digital exhibit for the university library of images to educate students on steps they can take to better analyze the news.It is important to educate an even larger audience, beyond American university students. The Center for News Literacy has developed teaching resources, as well as a free online news literacy course. It is also trying to reach a younger audience. It has partnered with several secondary schools in the American state ofNew Yorkto teach news literacy.People should research and confirm what they read online. However, to change human behavior is a difficult thing, but that really is the only thing that is going to help. The biggest problem is not getting people to be able torecognize bad journalism or false news, but getting people to want to recognize it. Our brains are wired to the Internet to seek out information that agrees with our current beliefs.8. What’s purpose of the course “News Literacy”？A. To get rid of false information on the Internet.B. To make people realize the risk on the Internet.C. To train students to tell true information from the false.D. To teach students good habits of using information online.9. Why do students have difficulty judging the truth of news?A. They are too lazy.B. They are bored with news.C. They lack news resources.D. They lack time to check its realness.10. What does the Center try to do besides teaching university students?A. Educate the public.B. Improve the service online.C. Prevent children going online.D. Set up several secondary schools.11. What did the author suggest doing to solve the problem of false news?A. Believing whatever you see.B. Changing human behaviors.C. Questioning all the news online.D. Only trusting reliable information.DMy wife and I recently completed a day-long tour of the Great Wall with Jessie. In addition to being very knowledgeable about the history of theareas that we toured, she spoke excellent English and was able to answer all of our questions. Her driver was very experienced and polite, and we really enjoyed being able to have a customized tour that avoided the tourist traps and forced shopping that seem to be a part of the larger group tours.The attractions themselves were fantastic. I was a little worried that the snowy weather might impact our trip to the Great Wall, but everything went fine, and there weren’t many people out at all that day. I suggest wearingstrong shoes—the Great Wall is really a hike. And in snowy or rainy days, the surfaces are pretty slippery (滑的)! Seeing this area in winter was really unique, and the snow made for great pictures. Jessie kept us entertained with stories and facts about the construction of the Wall, and always pointed out great spots for taking pictures. Even though she’s in fantastic shape, she cared about our level of fitness and often stopped to let us catch our breath.When we got back to our hotel, Jessie gave us a great recommendation for dinner and some tips for our planned stops the next day. If I find myself in Beijing in the future, I will certainly be contacting Jessie for more tour opportunities, and I’ve already recommended her to some friends who are visiting the area later in the year. I can’t say enough about how kind and knowledgeable she was, and she really gave us a great tour experience.12. What can we infer about Jessie?A. She is a tour advisor.B. She is a tour guide.C. She is a foreign traveler.D. She is a skilled driver.13. When did the writer visit the Great Wall?A. In spring.B. In summer.C. In autumn.D. In winter.14. What did the writer think of his tour?A. Adventurous.B. Disappointing.C. Satisfactory.D. Improvable.15. What is the probable title for the text?A. A Wonderful Tour Day with JessieB. An Extraordinary Tour CompanyC. The Great Wall, an Excellent AttractionD. Jessie, a Kind and Knowledgeable Guide第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10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。

Foreign audience have been banned but a final decision on native attendance will be made in June.Another poll conducted at the weekend by TBS News found 65% wanted the Games cancelled or postponed again, with 37% voting to give up the event altogether and 28% calling for another delay.

As they pass under the artwork, they can hear recordings of speech in hundreds of languages coming from the tree. Most words sound foreign to the listeners. The different voices also speak at the same time. The resultingclamoris similar to that made in a crowded theater before a show begins.Rafael Lozano-Hemmer completed the piece last year. On his website, the artist says that Speaking Willow “reminds us that language is what defines our specific communities and connects our many cultures.” Lozano-Hemmer made the piece specially for the museum.It is the first of many immersive (身临其境的) experiences for visitors at Planet Word, a museum all about words and language. The exhibits playfully explore the lager and complex subject of language.In one room, a video plays, showing babies saying their first words. Another room, called “Where Do Words Come From”, teaches the history of some common English words. The space includes a 22-foot-tali “Wall of Words”, where visitors speak into devices and learn about the roots of the English language.Another room invites listeners to speak and learn about different languages. Native speakers of 28 languages and two sign languages teach people sayings in those languages. They also explain how language shapes their understanding of the world and how words cannot be separated from culture.Other rooms explore the different ways language is used — from humor and song writing to public speaking and advertising. Visitors can sing karaoke while learning about song writing, record a famous speech, play a joke-telling game, and teach a computer how to make cartoons. Almost every exhibit is interactive and most ask visitors to speak aloud.One exhibit room is all about books. It is designed to look like an old, rich library. Books line the shelves.When a book is placed on the table, a recorded reading begins and pictures appear.8. What does the underlined word “clamor” in paragraph 1 probably mean?A. Scene.B. Noise.C. Language.D. Appearance.9. The SpeakingWillowwas created ______.A specially B. accidentallyC. on requestD. out of curiosity10. What can we learn from the video in the room?A. Words and cultures.B.

In which paragraph can you find the methods of using languages?A. 3.B. 4.C. 6.D. 7.DI was at the hardware store the other day and overheard a woman tell Ed., the manager, that fall was her favorite time of year. Ed., because he liked to keep his customers happy, agreed that fall was a wonderful season, but I could tell he was lying.I was going through my mind recently, trying to find sweet memories of fall. I failed. I met my wife in the summer and married her two summers later. My sons were born in the winter and summer, my granddaughter in the winter. I’ve been fried twice in my life, both in fall. One October, a truck carrying tofu ran a red light and hit me, destroying my favorite car, combining the three things I most hate - trucks, tofu and October.I'm not saying fall is without its attractions. The leavesare beautiful. But fall's vacillation (立场摇摆)is troubling, its effort (努力)to please everyone, its continuous search for the middle ground to be all things to all people. Say what you will about summer and winter, at least they have the courage to keep their opinions strong, even if they kill us with extreme heat or cold.I recently read a story of a man coming out of a three-month coma (昏迷). It started in early fall and ended just as winter came. I hope if I were ever in a coma I would be just as lucky as the man.Upon my awakening, one of my families who stood around my bed would ask. "Don't you remember anything from the past three months?""Not the first thing," I would happily report.If I ever have enough money. I'm going to buy a second home inAustralia, so that when fall starts here, I can move there for three months, just when spring is starting.12.

The author is having a hard time at work.C. It is important to follow the rules of the road.D. Nothing good has happened to the author in fall.14. Why does the author say the man in Paragraph 4 was lucky?A. Because he slept fall away.B. Because he ho sweet memories of fall.C. Because hedreamed of fill many times.D. Because he was met by his family when waking up.15. Which of the following does the author most want to do?A. Drivetracks.B. Eat tofu dishes.C. Watch leaves falling in fall.D. Move toAustraliain October.第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10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。

The Apple of the Father's EyeCSkeleton is one of the three sliding sports at the Beijing 2022 Olympic Winter Games,alongside the luge（单雪橇）and bobsleigh（大雪橇）.With only six medals up for grabs,skeleton has the fewest events at the Winter Games—which means competition will be fierce.The sport of skeleton has its roots in the most popular winter pastime：sleighing.In themid-19th century,British and American holidaymakers built the first toboggan（平底雪橇）run in Davos in 1882，and thus the sport of sleighing began.Two years later,in 1884，the famed Cresta Run—a natural ice skeleton racing toboggan track—was built in St.Moritz,Switzerland（the course has hosted the annual Grand Nationalchampionships since 1885）.In 1892，a new sledge made entirely of steel was introduced,and some claim that its bony appearance gave the sledge and the sport the name 'skeleton'.Men's skeleton was first introduced on the Olympic program in the 1928 Games inSt.Moritz.But due to the sport only being available at the Cresta Run at the time,it fell into obscurity（默默无闻）while the luge and bobsleigh grew in popularity.However,in 2002，the skeleton was reintroduced as a men's and women's event at the Salt Lake City Winter Olympics,and has remained a part of the Olympic program ever since.While Great Britain has the most medals（nine）in skeleton competition at the Olympics,the top spot belongs to the United States（eight medals）by virtue of having four silvers to Great Britain's one（both nations have three golds,while Britain has five bronze medals,and the United States one）.Great Britain is the only nation to have won a medal every time skeleton has featured at the Olympic Games,and has won at least one medal in each of the five contests of women's skeleton since its introduction.8.How many events does skeleton have in the Olympics？______A. Two.B. Three.C. Five.D. Six.9.When did skeleton first appear______A. In 1882.B. In 1885.C. In 1892.D. In 1928.10.Why did skeleton fall into obscurity______A. Because its material steel was rare.B. Because there was only one run for it.C. Because only men could take part in it.D. Because it was not on the Olympic program.11.What makes America top Great Britain in skeleton at the Olympics？______A. The number of medals.B. The composition of medals.C. The virtue of the athletes.D. The times of hosting the Olympics.DHave you ever spent half an hour searching the Internet which,as you find out afterwards,lasted three hours,or opened a book shortly after breakfast and a little while later noticed that the roomwas getting darkerMost people can remember experiencing such a state.Your mind wasn't wandering；you were totally focused and concentrated on that activity,to such an extent that you were not even aware of yourself.Psychologists call these fully absorbing experiences flow states,which were discovered and named by a world-famous psychologist Mihaly Csikszentmihalyi.His celebrated book Flow：The Psychology of Happiness became an instant best-seller,making its way to the top self-help classics.The state of flow happens under very specific conditions-when we encounter a challenge that is testing for our skills,and yet our skills and capacities are such that it is just about possible to meet this challenge.So both the challenge and the skills are at high levels,stretching us almost to the limit.If challenges exceed skills,one can become anxious.If skills exceed challenges,we usually become bored.Neither of these two cases result in flow.What is also interesting in flow is the almost total absence of emotions during the actual process.One seems to be almost beyond experiencing emotions,most likely because the awareness of self is not present.Mihaly himself is also very much aware of the potential negative impact of the flow.One philosopher once describes his own experience of flow："When I get totally involved in the conversation,I am not aware of myself,the world around or the passage of time.Sometimes,I may become addictive to that existence,unwilling to cope with other daily routines of life,like forgetting dinner,and saying goodbye to my children."12.What is the purpose of Paragraph 1______A. To offer a general background of the topic.B. To make an overall outline for the passage.C. To introduce the topic of the passage.D. To clarify the definition of the topic.13.In which of the following experience can we enter "flow state"？______A. Adopting a dog.B. Watching TV.C. Playing the chess.D. Arguing with others.14.What can we infer from the third paragraph______A. The state of flow is little conditional.B. Genius at normal schools often gets bored.C. Challenges at high levels push us to the limit.D. Skills play the most important part in flow.15.Why does the writer quote the philosopher's words______A. To show the drawbacks of the flow.B. To stress the value of self-awareness.C. To underline the absence of emotions.D. To indicate the difficulty of enjoying the flow.二、阅读七选五（本大题共5小题，共12.5分）As a speaker of 10 languages I know the benefits of speaking more than one language.To start with,we need to dispel （消除）four common misconceptions about language learning. You have to have a gift for learning languages.No,you don't. (1) In Sweden and Holland most people speak more than one language.They can't just all be gifted at languages.In language learning it is attitude,not aptitude （天赋）that determines success.(2)Some immigrants to North America never learn to speak more than broken English.Yet we meet people in other countries who speak flawless English.With the Internet,language content is available to anyone with a computer. (3)To learn a language you need formal classroom instruction.Classrooms may be economical to run and a great place to meet others.They have the weight of history and tradition behind them.Unfortunately,a classroom is an inefficient place to learn a language. (4) A majority of school kids graduate unable to communicate in languages that they study for 10 or more years.I would love to learn but I don't have the time.How about the time you spend waiting in line or going for a walk？Why not use that time to listen to a language on your iPad？Once you get started,even 10 or 15 minutes a day will soon grow to 30 minutes a day,or one hour. (5) As I do,you will find the time.A.That's my experience.B.Anyone who wants to,can learn.C.Where you live is not a problem.D.You need to speak in order to learn.E.You have to live where the language is spoken.F.The more students in the class,the more inefficient it is.G.We simply have to change the way we go about teaching languages.16.

46.【参考答案】
我们不断听到有人说，经济衰退对婚姻影响很大。比如，上个月，据报25岁至34岁的
美国人已婚人数比例下跌，低于从来没有结过婚的人的比例。有人很快将此归因于经济滑坡。
他们认为，年轻人缺钱办婚礼，在不稳定时期不愿做出终身承诺。
上个星期，佩尤研究中心(PewResearchCenter)的一份报告称，30岁受过大学教育的人
与没有大学学位的同龄人相比更有可能已婚。这一新闻解释为是最近经济衰退的另一副作用。
经济下滑毕竟对无大学学位的年轻人打击特别沉重。
但我们如果看一看美国过去一个世纪里的婚姻走势，就会发现这种解释站不住脚。奇妙
的是，结婚率和离婚率不随经济周期的上上下下而波动。不幸的是，婚姻统计数据很容易被
人曲解。
