Can we “design” a baby like we design a handbag It may sound crazy, but a “designer baby” could be possible now. Of course, at the same time, there are both agreements and disagreements with it.
The “designer baby” idea comes from the research that allows scientists to make changes to human DNA and genes. Usually, it is done when the baby is still just an embryo (胚胎). By doing that, scientists hope that “designer babies” will less possibly be born with some certain serious illnesses.
During the 21st century, the idea became so popular that the research developed very quickly. Now, it has been firstly used to help born babies with their illnesses. One example of this is that Dr. Adrian Thrasher of University College London was able to save a 1-year-old child from leukemia (白血病) with the help of it. People learned that it was not only illnesses they could change, but also a baby’s gender and looks. A well-known event happened in 1996. An American couple, Monique and Scott Collins, decided to use this research to help them choose the gender of their next baby. They wanted to have a baby girl for they have had three sons. Moreover, people could also decide babies’ eye color, hair color and even things like height or how sportive babies will be.
Some people argue that it is not ethical (道德的) to design babies like designing a bag. It is strongly against the nature’s rules. Besides, it may not have any bad influence on the baby now, yet no one knows what will happen to him and his children after many years.
4. Now we can “design” a baby from ________.
A. designing a handbag for a baby
B. changing the DNA and genes of a human embryo
C. stopping the embryo from growing up
D. working on the computer
5. Scientists hope to ________.
A. stop babies getting serious illnesses before birth
B. have more sports players born
C. make prettier babies
D. give us smarter babies
6. What does the underlined word “gender” mean in the third paragraph
A. Character. B. Sex.
C. Appearance. D. Personality.
7. It is thought that the “designer baby” idea ________.
A. follows the nature’s rules
B. can save everyone in the world
C. also has some bad sides
D. shouldn’t be used in any field
C
Have you ever run into a careless cell phone user on the street Perhaps they were busy talking, texting or checking updates on WeChat without looking at what was going on around them. As the number of this new “species” of human has kept rising, they have been given a new name — phubbers (低头族).
Recently, a cartoon made by students from China Central Academy of Fine Arts put this group of people under the spotlight. In the short film, phubbers with various social identities(身份)are buried in their phones. A doctor plays with his cell phone while letting his patient die, a pretty woman takes selfie (自拍照)in front of a car accident site, and a father loses his child without knowing about it while using his mobile phone. A chain of similar events eventually leads to the destruction of the world.
Although the ending sounds overstated (夸大), the damage phubbing can bring is real. Your health is the first to bear the effect and result of it. “Continuously stretching (伸展) your head to check your cell phone could damage your neck,” Guangming Daily quoted doctors as saying, “the neck is like a rope that breaks after long-term stretching.” Also, staring at cell phones for long periods of time will damage your eyesight gradually, according to the report.
But that’s not all. Being a phubber could also damage your social skills and drive you away from your friends and family. At reunions with family or friends, many people tend to(往往) stick to their cell phones while others are chatting happily with each other and this creates a strange atmosphere, Qilu Evening News reported.
It can also cost you your life. There have been lots of reports on phubbers who fell to their death, suffered accidents, and were robbed (抢劫) of their cell phones in broad daylight.
8. The author gives the example of a cartoon in Paragraph 2 ________________.
A. to advertise the cartoon made by students.
B. to inform people of the bad effects of phubbing.
C. to show the world will finally be destroyed by phubbers.
D. to warn doctors against using cell phones while treating patients.
9. Which of the following can replace the underlined phrase “be buried in”
A. hide B. use C. cover D. pay all attention to
10. A phubber may have all the possible problems except ____________
A. His social skills could be affected.
B. His neck and eyesight will be gradually harmed.
C. He will cause the destruction of the world.
D. He might get separated from his friends and family.
11. The author’s attitude towards phubbing is ___________.
A. negative (消极的). B. supportive.
C. optimistic. D. objective (客观的).
D
Can plants talk Modern research has found something amazing: they do communicate with each other.
It has been known for some time that plants use chemicals to communicate with each other. This happens when a plant gets attacked by insects. The plant gives out chemicals from the leaves that are being eaten. This is like a warning, or a call for help: "I'm being attacked! " When another plant gets the chemicals, it starts to give out its own, different chemicals. Some of these chemicals drive insects away. Others attract the wasps(黄蜂;蜜蜂)! The wasps kill the insects that are eating the plants. Scientists hope to learn more about this plant warning system, so that we can use it to grow more crops.
More surprisingly, plants also use sound to communicate. People can't hear these sounds ; but plants are making them. Some plants make noises with their roots. Corn and chili plants do this. Some trees make clicking noises when there is not enough water.
Most surprisingly of all, plants have an amazing system of communication that can link nearly every plant in a forest. Scientists call this system the “ wood wide web”. The wood wide web is linked underground by fungi(霉菌).It links the roots of different plants to each other. It is in some ways similar to the Internet we use. Using the wood wide web, plants can share information and even food with each other. However, it may lead to bad effects. Plants may use it to steal food from each other, or spread chemicals to attack other plants. Perhaps one day scientists will learn how to create a “firewall“ to help prevent these attacks within the wood wide web.
Scientists are learning more every day about the secret ways in which plants talk to each other. Maybe one day we will know enough about plant communication to be able to "talk” with them ourselves.
12. What will plants do when they are attacked by insects
A. They will kill the insects by themselves.
B. They will control the wasps to kill the insects.
C. They will send out signals to ask for help.
D. They will produce chemicals as a warning or a call for help.
13. How is the wood wide web linked by fungi
A. By making noises with their roots.
B. By connecting the roots of different plants to each other.
C. By sharing food and information with each other.
D. By spreading chemicals to each other.
14. What is the structure of the passage
A. B.
C. D.
15. Which is the best title for the passage
A. The Secret Language of Plants
B. The Study About the Plant Warning System
C. The Plants that Give Warnings
D. Why Scientists Do Research About Plants

Can we “design” a baby like we design a handbag It may sound crazy, but a “designer baby” could be possible now. Of course, at the same time, there are both agreements and disagreements with it.
The “designer baby” idea comes from the research that allows scientists to make changes to human DNA and genes. Usually, it is done when the baby is still just an embryo (胚胎). By doing that, scientists hope that “designer babies” will less possibly be born with some certain serious illnesses.
During the 21st century, the idea became so popular that the research developed very quickly. Now, it has been firstly used to help born babies with their illnesses. One example of this is that Dr. Adrian Thrasher of University College London was able to save a 1-year-old child from leukemia (白血病) with the help of it. People learned that it was not only illnesses they could change, but also a baby’s gender and looks. A well-known event happened in 1996. An American couple, Monique and Scott Collins, decided to use this research to help them choose the gender of their next baby. They wanted to have a baby girl for they have had three sons. Moreover, people could also decide babies’ eye color, hair color and even things like height or how sportive babies will be.
Some people argue that it is not ethical (道德的) to design babies like designing a bag. It is strongly against the nature’s rules. Besides, it may not have any bad influence on the baby now, yet no one knows what will happen to him and his children after many years.
4. Now we can “design” a baby from ________.
A. designing a handbag for a baby
B changing the DNA and genes of a human embryo
C. stopping the embryo from growing up
D. working on the computer

Have you ever run into a careless cell phone user on the street Perhaps they were busy talking, texting or checking updates on WeChat without looking at what was going on around them. As the number of this new “species” of human has kept rising, they have been given a new name — phubbers (低头族).
Recently, a cartoon made by students from China Central Academy of Fine Arts put this group of people under the spotlight. In the short film, phubbers with various social identities(身份)are buried in their phones. A doctor plays with his cell phone while letting his patient die, a pretty woman takes selfie (自拍照)in front of a car accident site, and a father loses his child without knowing about it while using his mobile phone. A chain of similar events eventually leads to the destruction of the world.
Although the ending sounds overstated (夸大), the damage phubbing can bring is real. Your health is the first to bear the effect and result of it. “Continuously stretching (伸展) your head to check your cell phone could damage your neck,” Guangming Daily quoted doctors as saying, “the neck is like a rope that breaks after long-term stretching.” Also, staring at cell phones for long periods of time will damage your eyesight gradually, according to the report.
But that’s not all. Being a phubber could also damage your social skills and drive you away from your friends and family. At reunions with family or friends, many people tend to(往往) stick to their cell phones while others are chatting happily with each other and this creates a strange atmosphere, Qilu Evening News reported.
It can also cost you your life. There have been lots of reports on phubbers who fell to their death, suffered accidents, and were robbed (抢劫) of their cell phones in broad daylight.
8. The author gives the example of a cartoon in Paragraph 2 ________________.
A. to advertise the cartoon made by students.
B. to inform people of the bad effects of phubbing.
C. to show the world will finally be destroyed by phubbers.
D. to warn doctors against using cell phones while treating patients.
9. Which of the following can replace the underlined phrase “be buried in”
A. hide B. use C. cover D. pay all attention to
10. A phubber may have all the possible problems except ____________
A. His social skills could be affected.
B. His neck and eyesight will be gradually harmed.
C. He will cause the destruction of the world.
D He might get separated from his friends and family.
11. The author’s attitude towards phubbing is ___________.
A. negative (消极的). B. supportive.
C. optimistic. D. objective (客观的).
【答案】8. B 9. D 10. C 11. A

【11题详解】
推理判断题。由第三段中的“Although the ending sounds overstated(夸大), the damage phubbing can bring is real.”(虽然结尾听起来有些夸张,但低头带来的伤害却是真实的。)和最后一段“It can also cost you your life.

Can plants talk Modern research has found something amazing: they do communicate with each other.
It has been known for some time that plants use chemicals to communicate with each other. This happens when a plant gets attacked by insects. The plant gives out chemicals from the leaves that are being eaten. This is like a warning, or a call for help: "I'm being attacked! " When another plant gets the chemicals, it starts to give out its own, different chemicals. Some of these chemicals drive insects away. Others attract the wasps(黄蜂;蜜蜂)! The wasps kill the insects that are eating the plants. Scientists hope to learn more about this plant warning system, so that we can use it to grow more crops.
More surprisingly, plants also use sound to communicate. People can't hear these sounds ; but plants are making them. Some plants make noises with their roots. Corn and chili plants do this. Some trees make clicking noises when there is not enough water.
Most surprisingly of all, plants have an amazing system of communication that can link nearly every plant in a forest. Scientists call this system the “ wood wide web”. The wood wide web is linked underground by fungi(霉菌).It links the roots of different plants to each other. It is in some ways similar to the Internet we use. Using the wood wide web, plants can share information and even food with each other. However, it may lead to bad effects. Plants may use it to steal food from each other, or spread chemicals to attack other plants. Perhaps one day scientists will learn how to create a “firewall“ to help prevent these attacks within the wood wide web.
Scientists are learning more every day about the secret ways in which plants talk to each other. Maybe one day we will know enough about plant communication to be able to "talk” with them ourselves.
12. What will plants do when they are attacked by insects
A. They will kill the insects by themselves.
B. They will control the wasps to kill the insects.
C. They will send out signals to ask for help.
D. They will produce chemicals as a warning or a call for help.
13. How is the wood wide web linked by fungi
A. By making noises with their roots.
B. By connecting the roots of different plants to each other.
C. By sharing food and information with each other.
D. By spreading chemicals to each other.
14. What is the structure of the passage
A. B.
C. D.
15. Which is the best title for the passage
A. The Secret Language of Plants
B. The Study About the Plant Warning System
C. The Plants that Give Warnings
D. Why Scientists Do Research About Plants
【答案】12. D 13. B 14. B 15. A
【解析】
【分析】这是一篇说明文。现代研究发现:植物可以相互之间进行交流。
【12题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段中“The plant gives out chemicals from the leaves that are being eaten. This is like a warning, or a call for help: "I'm being attacked! " When another plant gets the chemicals, it starts to give out its own, different chemicals. Some of these chemicals drive insects away. Others attract the wasps(黄蜂;蜜蜂)! The wasps kill the insects that are eating the plants.”(植物从被吃掉的叶子中释放出化学物质。这就像是一个警告,或者一个求救信号: “我被袭击了! ”当另一种植物吸收了这些化学物质,它就会释放出自己的,不同的化学物质。有些化学物质会把昆虫赶走。其他的吸引黄蜂!黄蜂会杀死吃植物的昆虫。)可知,当植物被昆虫袭击时,它们会释放出化学物质来作为警告或者作为求救信号。选项D. “They will produce chemicals as a warning or a call for help.”(它们会产生化学物质,作为警告或求救信号。)与文意相符,故选D。
【13题详解】
细节理解题。根据倒数第二段中“It links the roots of different plants to each other. It is in some ways similar to the Internet we use.”(它把不同植物的根连接起来。它在某些方面与我们使用的互联网相似。)可知,“木网”的连接方式是通过霉菌把不同植物的根连接了起来。选项B. “By connecting the roots of different plants to each other.”(通过把不同植物的根连接起来。)与文意相符,故选B。
【14题详解】
推理判断题。纵观全文,文章在第一段提出论题:植物们彼此之间可以交流。第二段讲述当植物受到昆虫的攻击时,会释放出化学物质,来进行警告或者作为求救信号寻求救助;第三段讲到植物通过使用声音来进行沟通;第四段讲述植物之间的“木网”通过霉菌把不同植物的根连接了起来,利用“木网”,植物可以互相分享信息,甚至食物。但是,它可能会带来不良影响。第二、三、四段通过分类列举讲述了植物之间的沟通方式,所以是属于并列关系。最后一段作为总说,讲述对于植物间交流的秘密方式,科学家们每天都在研究,相信也许有一天,我们会和植物通讯,能够与他们 “交谈”自己。所以本文的结构方式应是“总——分——总”的结构,分说部分的三段为并列关系。选项B与文意一致,故选B。
【15题详解】
主旨大意题。纵观全文,文章的第一段可知,研究人员发现,植物可以相互之间进行交流。在接下来的第二、三、四段通过分类列举,讲述了植物之间的沟通方式。所以本文主要讲述的为植物之间的语言的秘密。选项A与文意相符,故选A。

【解析】
【分析】这是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了一个笑话,一个流浪汉睡在公园的长椅上,有两次被问到时间,因为没有手表,所以不知道具体时间,他很不高兴别人打扰他睡觉,于是写了一个纸片,说明情况,最后警察来告诉他时间,他最终还是被打扰了。
【36题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意:一天,一个流浪汉睡在公的长椅上,惬意地享受着午后的阳光。be satisfied with 是固定词组,此句中,主谓宾完整,故用形容词短语作伴随状语。故填satisfied。
【37题详解】
考查连词。句意:流浪汉回答:“我没有手表,因此不知道时间。”分析可知,上下文为因果关系,用so连接符合语境。故填so。
【38题详解】
考查定语从句。句意:正在那时,一个带着她的狗一起散步的女人路过,摇了摇流浪汉的肩膀直到他醒。分析可知空处引导非限制性定语从句,先行词a woman ,指人,从句中缺少主语,应用关系代词who。故填who。
【39题详解】
考查动词固定搭配。句意:“很抱歉打扰您,请问一下,您知道现在是几点了吗?”此题考查的是词组happen to“刚好,恰巧”的意思,to后面接动词原形,故填to know。
【40题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意:流浪汉对再次被被弄醒感到很恼火。介词at 应加动名词作宾语,又逻辑主语tramp和wake之间为被动关系,故用动名词的被动形式being done。故填being woken。
【41题详解】
考查副词。句意:但是他还是有礼貌地告诉女士,他没有表,不知道时间。修饰动词需要副词。故填politely。
【42题详解】
考查动词固定搭配。句意:当那个女人走后,这个流浪汉想出了一个主意。此处为固定短语sth occur to sb ,表示“某人突然想起”。故填to 。
【43题详解】
考查名词。句意:流浪汉用他所有的力气在纸上写着“我没有手表,所以我不知道时间”。形容词性物主代词his后应接名词作with的宾语,strong是一个形容词,它的名词形式是strength,此处意为“力气”是抽象概念,不可数。故填strength。
【44题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意:为了提醒别人不再打搅他睡觉,他把写有字的那张纸挂在脖子处。空格前是一个完整的句子,因此空格处是非谓语动词,由于think和He是主动关系。故用现在分词作伴随状语。故填thinking。
【45题详解】
考查副词。句意:十五分钟以后,一位警察发现了流浪汉旁边的那个写字的那张纸,警察先生处于内心的责任感,将流浪汉弄醒了,并告诉他现在的时间是下午2点半。根据上下文意思可知,他再次被打扰是在十五分钟以后,表达“......之后”用“时间段+later”。故填later。

I'm sorry to know that you're having such a bad time at the moment. The truth is that everyone will have one of those periods when things seem to be going wrong. I quite understand how you are feeling now and there is no need to worry about it so much. The important thing is to learn to control your temper so that you may not do or say anything you’ll regret. Here are three useful tips.
First of all, talk to someone you trust about the trouble you’re faced with, which is a good way of letting your anger out without hurting others or yourself. Second, go outdoors and play team games with your friends as physical exercise is an effective way to get rid of anger. Last but not least, remain optimistic about your future. Having a positive attitude towards life can be helpful in lifting your spirits.
I hope you'll soon become calmer and better.
Yours,
Jamie

Robert was a carpenter (木匠). He was living in a village. His mother died a long time ago. His aged father, Kuppan, lived with Robert. Kuppan was very weak. He could not even walk well. He was so weak because Robert did not give him enough food.
Robert had a son. His name was Michael. Michael was just ten years old. He was a very good boy. He loved his grandfather. He had great respect for his grandfather. We did not like his father’s attitude and character to his grandfather, because his father was treating his grandfather cruelly. One day Kuppan was eating his food in the small plate that his son had given to him. The plate fell and broke into pieces. The food also fell on the floor. Robert was working at the other end of the room. He saw the broken plate. He was very angry with his father and used very sharp words to blame his father. The old man felt bad about what happened. He was sorry for his mistake. Robert’s words wounded him very deeply.
Michael saw this. But he was afraid to speak against his father. He was sad about his grandfather. But he was not powerful to stand in support of his grandfather. Then he got an idea.
