A while back I caught a news report on something called ―couch surfing and the network of trusting souls who make this phenomenon possible. They offer to put up travelers free of charge and help them on their ways. At first, it sounded unbelievable. I mean, inviting strangers into one’s home for one or two nights Give me a break.
However, I was intrigued. I decided to find it out. The only way to truly learn about this phenomenon was to dive in. So I planned a trip to Finland, a country I’ve always wanted to explore. I would couch surf at every stop there.
If ever any anxiety existed when stepping into the unknown, it disappeared when my first host met me at the train station. Ari looked like my idea of a typical Finn: tall and blue-eyed. Finns were also supposed to be famously reserved (寡言少语的). Ari was anything but. He was a live wire, giving me a warm welcome and walking with me to his apartment, where he showed me the sleeper sofa, served me tea, and engaged me in warm conversations. He also handed me a key to come and go as I pleased.
If this was what couch surfing was all about—trust and friendship—then I had gotten off to a good start. As I boarded my next train to continue my journey, I began to think about this couch-surfing idea. What encouraged these people to open their homes to strangers I concluded that there was a desire to lend a hand to like-minded folks who might enrich their own lives.
Seven cities in 14 days. Seven hosts. Seven new friends. If couch surfing taught me anything, it’s this: Most people are good and generous. Where will couch surfing take me next Who knows But I can’t wait to find out.
4. Which of the following best explains the underlined word in the second paragraph
A. relaxed. B. bored.
C. interested. D. pleased.
5. What can we know about Ari
A. He was reserved like most Finns.
B. He talked less but he was friendly.
C. He treated the author as a friend.
D. He saw off the author at the train station.
6. Why did people offer couch surfing to strangers
A. To take an adventure with strangers.
B. To exchange houses for a short time.
C. To learn more about others’ family lives.
D. To enrich their own lives by helping others.
7. What can be the best title for the text
A. Travel on Trust and Couches
B. A Free Travel in Finland
C. Experiences in Strangers’ Houses
D. A Plan for Couch Surfing

What will our world be like in 2050
There are two features in the growth of world population. First, the annual increase in population in 15 European countries, in the past few years, has been only 300,000. The United Nations estimates (估计)that by 2050, the population of European countries will decrease from the current 0.72 billion to 0.63 billion. Second, the population in developing countries is growing rapidly. By 2050，the population of Africa is expected to reach 1.8 billion, 0.9 billion more than its current population.
A recent research report published by the United Nations indicates that it is quite possible that the Earth's temperature is rising well above the previous estimate. The Antarctic ice sheet, which contains 90% of the world's ice, has lost significant mass in the past few years. The discovery comes as a surprise to scientists, who thought that the continent would gain ice this century because of increased snowfall in a warming climate. A research team from the University of Colorado used satellite data to estimate that the ice sheet will lose up to 48 cubic miles by 2050.
Africa's rivers face great change that will leave a quarter of the continent severely short of water by the middle of the century, according to a global warming study published today. Even modest decreases in rain in western Africa will see rivers lose as much as 80% of their water and a rise of what the scientists call "water refuges(难民)”. "In those areas where there is already a water shortage, it's going to have a destructive effect," the study says,.“If you're already walking 5 km to the nearest stream, by 2050,it's going to mean walking 30 km or moving your whole household closer to the water source."
8. Which of the following situations in 2050 is NOT mentioned in the text
A. Population change.
B. Economic decline.
C. Global warming.
D. Water shortage.
9. What surprises the scientists according to Paragraph 3
A. The Antarctic ice sheet has decreased.
B. The Earth's temperature is going down.
C. Global warming is destroying the Earth.
D. Snowfall increases in the Antarctic area.
10. What does the underlined sentence in the last paragraph stress (强调)
A. The ill fate of Africa's rivers.
B. The importance of doing exercise.
C. The hard life of the African refugees.
D. The seriousness of the water problem.
11. What was the most possible feeling of the author when he wrote this text
A. Happy.
B. Angry.
C. Worried.
D. Calm.
D
As artificial intelligence(AI) systems become more advanced, we can expect them to be used more often in the world of human medicine and healthcare. AI is designed to imitate(模仿） the human brain in decision making and learning, so with the computing power to learn tasks in days or even hours, it is possible to create medical AIs that rapidly outperform doctors in certain tasks.
Data plays a hugely important role in helping AI systems learn about human medicine. AI systems are trained on large data sets gathered from real-life cases. Providing detailed patient information in quantities is a crucial factor for their success.
One of the most important areas for influencing global health is in the field of epidemiology(流行病学）。 Predicting disease outbreaks can save millions of lives by having resources ready should the worst happen. Startup AIME has successfully combined public health data with machine learning and AI to create a prediction engine capable of anticipating epidemics months in advance with great accuracy.
Another field where medical AIs are making rapid advances is in diagnostics(诊断学）。Doctors base a lot of decisions on information from X-ray, CT and MRI images. Speeding up. diagnoses from patient scans can rapidly improve patient care and puter vision AIs use pattern recognition to work through these images with incredible speed and accuracy. They have been able to outperform junior doctors and even senior specialists in some tests.
Cardiologist(心脏科医生）Rima Arnaout developed an AI that beat human experts at correctly interpreting echocardiograms(超声心动图）by 92 percent to 79 percent. She said that despite the result there is no prospect of AI replacing human doctors any time soon. “As cardiologists, we read the images and then go to see the patient,” she said. “So we're both reading images and practicing medicine. I don't think that the second piece will be taken over so quickly. ”
The acceptance of AI in medicine will continue to gather pace in the future as it becomes more widespread.
12. What played a big role in helping AI systems know of human medicine
A. Certain tasks.
B. Large data.
C. The skill to imitate.
D. The increasing demand.
13. Why is Startup AIME mentioned in paragraph 3
A. To illustrate predicting disease is possible.
B. To call on doctors to focus on public health data.
C. To prove it's a successful company in global health.
D. To let readers realize the importance of early success.
14. What do we know about computer vision AIs
A. They do better than doctors in some tests.
B. They speed up diagnoses from patient scans.
C. They can rapidly improve patients' conditions.
D. They analyze information from X-ray, CT and MRI images.
15. What do Rima Arnaout's words in paragraph 5 imply
A. AIs are not so smart as human doctors.
B. It's not easy for AIs to take the place of human doctors.
C. A cooperation between AIs and human doctors is a must.
D Human doctors are playing a big role in practicing medicine.

根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。所给选项中有两项为多余选项。
Habit formation is not so simple. By employing the following strategies, you'll speed up the process and ensure your new habit sticks.
Define（确定）small, specific goals
____16____ For example, you may want to keep a more organized home or turn in schoolwork on time. These big goals are necessary for your long-term motivation, but they won't help you develop and stick with new habits.
A habit is simply a repeated behavior. Before you can develop a new habit, you'll need to define a small, specific behavioral goal. For example, instead of “be more organized”, try “do laundry every Sunday morning”. This goal works because it's concrete. ____17____
Get a partner
We might sometimes fail to meet our own expectations, but we hate to let our friends and family down. A partner can help in a number of different ways. Sometimes, simply telling another person that you're trying to form a new habit is enough to keep you on track. ____18____ If you're trying to build an exercise habit, find a friend who wants to hit the gym and set up a shared workout schedule.
Use reminders
Experiment with post-it notes, to-do lists, daily phone alarms, and any other tool you can use to create external（外部的） reminders.
____19____ If you find yourself trapped in an unhelpful thought process, you can use mental reminders to break the pattern. Choose a statement to repeat whenever negative thoughts arise.
Give yourself time
Remember that habit formation is not a straight upward trajectory （轨道）. If you slip up one day, don't stress out. ____20____ Developing new habits takes time, but with a smart, strategic approach, your habits will last for life.
A. Mental reminders are also important.
B. Think about the barriers that might be stopping you.
C. One small mistake will not erase the work you've already done.
D. A partner can also be someone working towards the same goal as you.
E. It's a behavior that you can repeat over and over until it becomes a habit.
F. If you're working on habit development, you probably have big goals in mind.
G. How long it takes to reform an old habit depends on the strength of the old behavior.

A while back I caught a news report on something called ―couch surfing and the network of trusting souls who make this phenomenon possible. They offer to put up travelers free of charge and help them on their ways. At first, it sounded unbelievable. I mean, inviting strangers into one’s home for one or two nights Give me a break.
However, I was intrigued. I decided to find it out. The only way to truly learn about this phenomenon was to dive in. So I planned a trip to Finland, a country I’ve always wanted to explore. I would couch surf at every stop there.
If ever any anxiety existed when stepping into the unknown, it disappeared when my first host met me at the train station. Ari looked like my idea of a typical Finn: tall and blue-eyed. Finns were also supposed to be famously reserved (寡言少语的). Ari was anything but. He was a live wire, giving me a warm welcome and walking with me to his apartment, where he showed me the sleeper sofa, served me tea, and engaged me in warm conversations. He also handed me a key to come and go as I pleased.
If this was what couch surfing was all about—trust and friendship—then I had gotten off to a good start. As I boarded my next train to continue my journey, I began to think about this couch-surfing idea. What encouraged these people to open their homes to strangers I concluded that there was a desire to lend a hand to like-minded folks who might enrich their own lives.
Seven cities in 14 days. Seven hosts. Seven new friends. If couch surfing taught me anything, it’s this: Most people are good and generous. Where will couch surfing take me next Who knows But I can’t wait to find out.
4. Which of the following best explains the underlined word in the second paragraph
A. relaxed. B. bored.
C. interested. D. pleased.
5. What can we know about Ari
A. He was reserved like most Finns.

C. He treated the author as a friend.
D. He saw off the author at the train station.
6. Why did people offer couch surfing to strangers
A. To take an adventure with strangers.
B. To exchange houses for a short time.
C. To learn more about others’ family lives.
D. To enrich their own lives by helping others.

What will our world be like in 2050
There are two features in the growth of world population. First, the annual increase in population in 15 European countries, in the past few years, has been only 300,000. The United Nations estimates (估计)that by 2050, the population of European countries will decrease from the current 0.72 billion to 0.63 billion. Second, the population in developing countries is growing rapidly. By 2050，the population of Africa is expected to reach 1.8 billion, 0.9 billion more than its current population.
A recent research report published by the United Nations indicates that it is quite possible that the Earth's temperature is rising well above the previous estimate. The Antarctic ice sheet, which contains 90% of the world's ice, has lost significant mass in the past few years. The discovery comes as a surprise to scientists, who thought that the continent would gain ice this century because of increased snowfall in a warming climate. A research team from the University of Colorado used satellite data to estimate that the ice sheet will lose up to 48 cubic miles by 2050.
Africa's rivers face great change that will leave a quarter of the continent severely short of water by the middle of the century, according to a global warming study published today. Even modest decreases in rain in western Africa will see rivers lose as much as 80% of their water and a rise of what the scientists call "water refuges(难民)”. "In those areas where there is already a water shortage, it's going to have a destructive effect," the study says,.“If you're already walking 5 km to the nearest stream, by 2050,it's going to mean walking 30 km or moving your whole household closer to the water source."
8. Which of the following situations in 2050 is NOT mentioned in the text
A. Population change.
B. Economic decline.
C. Global warming.
D. Water shortage.
9. What surprises the scientists according to Paragraph 3
A. The Antarctic ice sheet has decreased.
B. The Earth's temperature is going down.
C. Global warming is destroying the Earth.
D. Snowfall increases in the Antarctic area.
10. What does the underlined sentence in the last paragraph stress (强调)
A. The ill fate of Africa's rivers.
B. The importance of doing exercise.
C. The hard life of the African refugees.
D. The seriousness of the water problem.
11. What was the most possible feeling of the author when he wrote this text
A. Happy.
B. Angry.
C. Worried.
D. Calm.
【答案】8. B 9. A 10. D 11. C
【解析】
【分析】本文是一篇说明文。文章向我们描述了到2050年的时候，世界会面临的人口激增、全球变暖、水资源短缺等三大问题。
【8题详解】
细节理解题。由第二段首句、第三段首句以及第四段首句，我们可以知道作者提到了2050年人类会面临的三大困境：人口激增、全球变暖以及水资源短缺。没有提到经济衰退这一信息。故选B项。
【9题详解】
细节理解题。由第三段“The Antarctic ice sheet, which contains 90% of the world's ice, has lost significant mass in the past few years. The discovery comes as a surprise to scientists, who thought that the continent would gain ice this century because of increased snowfall in a warming climate.”可知，占有全世界冰川总量90%的南极洲冰层主体在过去几年里显著萎缩。对于科学家们来说，这个发现出乎意料，因为他们曾经认为温暖的气候会带来更多降雪，从而在本世纪增加南极洲的总冰量。由此可知，根据第三段，南极冰原已经缩小令科学家感到惊讶。故选A项。
【10题详解】
细节理解题。最后一段首句主题句，点明本段在讲水缺乏的问题。划线句子““If you're already walking 5 km to the nearest stream, by 2050,it's going to mean walking 30 km or moving your whole household closer to the water source."”是说，如果现在需要徒步到5公里以外最近的水源地取水，到2050年就意味着要到30公里之外，或者只能搬到离水源更近的地方。由此可知，划线句子是在说明水资源问题的严重性。故选D项。
【11题详解】
推理判断题。纵观全文，作者提到了到2050年人类会面临的三大问题分别是人口激增、全球变暖以及水资源短缺。通过常识判断以及作者在最后一段用了“水难民”、“破坏性的影响”这样一些字眼，说明他对这些问题深感忧虑。故选C项。

As artificial intelligence(AI) systems become more advanced, we can expect them to be used more often in the world of human medicine and healthcare. AI is designed to imitate(模仿） the human brain in decision making and learning, so with the computing power to learn tasks in days or even hours, it is possible to create medical AIs that rapidly outperform doctors in certain tasks.
Data plays a hugely important role in helping AI systems learn about human medicine. AI systems are trained on large data sets gathered from real-life cases. Providing detailed patient information in quantities is a crucial factor for their success.
One of the most important areas for influencing global health is in the field of epidemiology(流行病学）。 Predicting disease outbreaks can save millions of lives by having resources ready should the worst happen. Startup AIME has successfully combined public health data with machine learning and AI to create a prediction engine capable of anticipating epidemics months in advance with great accuracy.
Another field where medical AIs are making rapid advances is in diagnostics(诊断学）。Doctors base a lot of decisions on information from X-ray, CT and MRI images. Speeding up. diagnoses from patient scans can rapidly improve patient care and puter vision AIs use pattern recognition to work through these images with incredible speed and accuracy. They have been able to outperform junior doctors and even senior specialists in some tests.
Cardiologist(心脏科医生）Rima Arnaout developed an AI that beat human experts at correctly interpreting echocardiograms(超声心动图）by 92 percent to 79 percent. She said that despite the result there is no prospect of AI replacing human doctors any time soon. “As cardiologists, we read the images and then go to see the patient,” she said. “So we're both reading images and practicing medicine. I don't think that the second piece will be taken over so quickly. ”
The acceptance of AI in medicine will continue to gather pace in the future as it becomes more widespread.
12. What played a big role in helping AI systems know of human medicine
A. Certain tasks.
B. Large data.
C. The skill to imitate.
D. The increasing demand.
13. Why is Startup AIME mentioned in paragraph 3
A. To illustrate predicting disease is possible.
B. To call on doctors to focus on public health data.
C. To prove it's a successful company in global health.
D. To let readers realize the importance of early success.
14. What do we know about computer vision AIs
A. They do better than doctors in some tests.
B. They speed up diagnoses from patient scans.
C. They can rapidly improve patients' conditions.
D. They analyze information from X-ray, CT and MRI images.
15. What do Rima Arnaout's words in paragraph 5 imply
A. AIs are not so smart as human doctors.
B. It's not easy for AIs to take the place of human doctors.
C. A cooperation between AIs and human doctors is a must.
D. Human doctors are playing a big role in practicing medicine.

【14题详解】
细节理解题。根据第四段“Computer vision AIs use pattern recognition to work through these images with incredible speed and accuracy. They have been able to outperform junior doctors and even senior specialists in some tests.（计算机视觉AI利用模式识别技术以令人难以置信的速度和准确性处理这些图像。在一些测试中，他们的表现已经超过了初级医生，甚至是高级专家。）”可知，计算机视觉人工智能在一些测试中，他们比医生做得更好。故选A。
【15题详解】
推理判断题。根据第五段中Rima Arnaout说的话“So we're both reading images and practicing medicine. I don't think that the second piece will be taken over so quickly.（所以我们在阅读图像的同时也在行医。我不认为第二部分会这么快被接管。）”可推断，Rima Arnaout认为，尽管结果如此，但AI不可能很快取代人类医生。故选B。

Jack nodded his head immediate. The doctor then wrote a prescription with instruction on how to take the Chinese medicine. When Jack tasted the medicine, he almost brings it up.
