Explore Central Park, one of the largest city parks in the world and one of the most famous symbols of New York. Let’s have a look at its main sights.
Central Park is New York’s largest city park and one of the biggest in the world with an area of 843 acres (about 3.4km2). This park is home to man-made lakes, waterfalls, grass and wooded areas. You will also find the Central Park Zoo, among other attractions in this greenspace of New York.
Besides being the city’s primary green lungs, Central Park is also a favorite spot for many New Yorkers. It is perfect for sunbathing, going for walks, or doing any outdoor sports. Something that we found curious is seeing so many people running with their babies in prams (婴儿车).
On Foot or by Bicycle
To get to know some of the wildest parts of Central Park we suggest walking. However, to get a general feel for the whole park, the best thing to do is hire a bicycle and enjoy the scenery.
If you decide to hire a bike, you will find lots of bike rental stores around Central Park that are not very expensive.
Open Time
From 7 a.m. to 10 p.m. on weekends.
From 6 a.m. to 8:30 p.m. on weekdays.
Price
Entry to the Park is free. But if you visit some parts like Central Park Zoo, you need to buy a ticket.
Transport

Bus: Line M1, M2, M3, M4 and M10.

B
In the subway station, I notice a black teenage boy waiting for the train, sitting on a railing(栏杆) just in front of a moving escalator(扶梯). It’s a hot evening; there is no air in the station. This black kid is just sitting there, settled on the railing, and I’m just standing there about 10 feet away looking for the faraway lights of the oncoming train. Then suddenly a white police officer is asking the kid for identification. The kid turns a little annoyed and asks what he’s been bothering about. The officer doesn’t explain. The kid pulls out some I.D. and hands it to the officer who looks at it and then barks out a demand for something with an address on it, a driver’s license.
Unwillingly, the kid pulls out a second piece of identification. The officer looks at it and tells the kid to come with him. Nothing I have seen or heard explains the officer’s strict approach or why the kid is being led away.
I get up to the officer and politely ask what this guy did and where he is taking him. He looks at me like I’m armed and crazy and tells me that it’s none of my business and to stay out of this.
“Could I please take down your badge(警徽) number, sir, as I’d like to report all this,” I say.
“Take down my badge number and then you show me a piece of identification. What are you, some lawyer ”
I copy down his badge number and then show him my driver’s license, asking, “Could you please tell me what this is all for ”
Looking at me over and again asking if I’m a lawyer, he tells me he’s taking the kid in for blocking the escalator and me in for “obstructing a police action.” Another black man hearing all this asks what’s going on and the officer gets very nervous. So I decide to go with him to his office. Then the officer gives his version of what happened and I politely interrupt to explain that the kid was in no way blocking the escalator traffic and that I was in no way “obstructing a police action”, not adding that I thought the way the officer handling the situation was racist and unnecessarily strict.
After this experience in the police station, I’m still wondering whether a well-dressed white man will be faced with a sharp command for identification for sitting on an escalator railing waiting for a train If a bystander does want to get involved and inquire about an apparently unfair arrest, is a policeman’s only response a second arrest Will our police officers always be seen by black kids as evils Is my charge with racism too strong
4. What is the black teenager doing at the train station
A. He is blocking the escalator.
B. He is escaping the police.
C. He is waiting for the train.
D. He is damaging the escalator.
5. Why does the author stand out to help the black teenager

B. He is not afraid to get involved.
C. He is black.
D. He has a sense of justice.
6. According to the passage, we can know that.
A. The black boy doesn’t obey the police officer.
B. Subway stations are good places to hang about.
C. The white policeman thinks ill of the black teenager.
D. Situations like this in the passage will never change.
7. Which of the following best explain the underlined word in the passage
A. blame. B. forbid. C. prevent. D. defend.
【答案】4. C 5. D 6. C 7. C
【解析】

【4题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第一段“In the subway station, I notice a black teenage boy waiting for the train, sitting on a railing(栏杆) just in front of a moving escalator(扶梯).(在地铁站，我注意到一个黑人少年正在等火车，他坐在移动的自动扶梯前的栏杆上。)”可知，黑人少年坐在自动扶梯的栏杆上正在等火车。故选C。
【5题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段I get up to the officer and politely ask what this guy did and where he is taking him. 可知，作者站出来与警察交涉，帮助黑人少年，以及最后一段在作者经历这个事件过后的思考都可以推断出作者有着强烈的正义感。故选D。

【7题详解】
词义猜测题。根据划线词前句“Looking at me over and again asking if I’m a lawyer, he tells me he’s taking the kid in for blocking the escalator (他一遍又一遍地看着我，问我是不是律师，然后告诉我，他带走那孩子是因为那个孩子阻碍了电梯)”和后句“So I decide to go with him to his office.(所以我决定和他一起去他的办公室。)”可猜测，警察认为作者“妨碍警方行动”。obstruct为“妨碍”之意。故选C。

Living the light life
Many of us like to dine ( 吃 饭 ) out and treat ourselves to delicious food. We are used to choosing hearty, fat-filled dishes and sugar-charged desserts, which are not easily cooked at home.
The recent rise of light meals, however, gives diners a smarter choice. According to Economic Daily, low-calorie, low-fat and high-fiber ( 高纤维的) meals have become popular in China's restaurants and online delivery platforms.
The country saw a rapid expansion of restaurants specializing in light meals, from just 600 in 2017 to more than 3,500 in 2018. According to a report released by Meituan, a major online food delivery platform, the number of light meals ordered online also rose 75 percent from the previous year.
Having a light meal, however, doesn't mean eating only vegetables. Different from the meat-free lifestyle, a typical light dish avoids oily, salty and spicy food. Instead, it contains things like boiled meat, whole grains, fruits and vegetables. Healthy nutrients (营养成分) are the theme of the light meal.
These dishes are useful for keeping healthy and controlling your weight. That's probably why so many people, especially millennials (千禧一代), are into them. Diners see it as “a great way to avoid bloating (变胖),” wrote the Telegraph.
“After eating several light meals, I felt my appetite has shrunk (缩小). I now prefer light flavors,” Zou Jing, a college teacher in Wuhan, told China Daily. She shared a picture of her lunch: a mixture of beef, eggs, corn, mushrooms and cherry tomatoes.
These changes in eating behavior are connected to deeper changes in how people think about food, says Walter Willett, chair of the nutrition department at the Harvard T.Chan School of Public Health, US. “Diet quality, not quantity, is important for both weight control and long-term well-being,” Willett told The New York Times.
So the next time you have a party with friends, try a light meal. It will satisfy not only your stomachs but maybe also your hearts.
8. What are light meals
A. Low-calorie and high-fiber meals. B. Meat-free dishes.
C. Sugar-charged desserts. D. Fat-filled dishes.
9. What is the main way that the author used to prove the popularity of light meals
A. Giving descriptions. B. Giving examples.
C. Listing numbers. D. Showing other people's opinions.
10. Why do many young people enjoy light meals, according to the article
A. They can help people control their weight. B. They are simple and convenient.
C. They are cheaper than other meals. D. They are usually colorful.
11. What do we know from the second to last paragraph
A. Light meals will stay popular for a while.
B. There is a change in attitude toward healthy eating.
C. One's eating habit shows their personality.
D. It's important to eat the right amount of good food.
【答案】8. A 9. C 10. A 11. B
【解析】
【分析】本文是一篇新闻报道。文章主要介绍了低热量，低脂肪和高纤维的饮食选择和习惯开始在中国流行。
【8题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中的“The recent rise of light meals, however, gives diners a smarter choice. According to Economic Daily, low-calorie, low-fat and high-fiber meals have become popular in China’s restaurants and online delivery platforms.( 然而最近养生轻食的兴起为食客们提供了一个更明智的选择。据《经济日报》报道，低热量，低脂肪和高纤维的膳食在中国的餐馆和在线食品配送平台中已变得流行。)”可知，养生轻食指的是低热量和高纤维的膳食。故选A。
【9题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段中的“The country saw a rapid expansion of restaurants specializing in light meals, from just 600 in 2017 to more than 3,500 in 2018. According to a report released by Meituan, a major online food delivery platform, the number of light meals ordered online also rose 75 percent from the previous year.( 该国的养生轻食餐厅迅速扩张，从2017年的600家增加到2018年的3500多家。根据在线食品配送平台美团发布的报告，在线订购的养生轻食数量也比上一年增长了75%。)”可推断，作者通过列出数字表明养生轻食越来越受人们的欢迎。故选C。
【10题详解】
细节理解题。根据第五段“These dishes are useful for keeping healthy and controlling your weight. That's probably why so many people, especially millennials (千禧一代), are into them. Diners see it as “a great way to avoid bloating (变胖),” wrote the Telegraph.(这些菜对保持健康和控制体重很有用。这可能就是为什么有这么多人，尤其是千禧一代加入其中的原因。《电讯报》报道，食客将其视为“减轻体重的好方法”)”可知，许多年轻人喜欢养生轻食的原因在于它可以帮助他们控制体重。故选A。
【11题详解】
推理判断题。文章从第二段开始，通过用数字举例子来说明养生轻食越来越受人们欢迎，接着分析了许多年轻人喜欢养生轻食的原因在于它可以帮助他们控制体重和长久地保持健康。在根据倒数第二段“These changes in eating behavior are connected to deeper changes in how people think about food, says Walter Willett, chair of the nutrition department at the Harvard T.Chan School of Public Health, US. （美国哈佛大学公共卫生学院营养系主任沃尔特 威利特表示，饮食行为的这些变化与人们对食物看法的更深层次的变化有关。）”由此可推断，人们对健康饮食的态度发生了变化。故选B。

Do you often listen to music at loud volumes (音量)？Over one billion (十亿) young people are at risk of hearing loss (失聪) because of listening to loud noise for long periods of time. Listening to music or watching a TV show at loud volumes is harmful to your hearing.
The United Nations has standards for safe listening. It is not safe to listen to sounds that are louder than 85 decibels (dB 分贝) for eight hours or 100 dB for 15 minutes. The sound of a busy road is about 85 dB and the sound of a rock concert can be about 100 dB.
Loud noise is harmful to the inner ears (内耳). Most of us are born with about 16,000 hair cells (听毛细胞) in our inner ears. However, listening to loud noise for a long time can make these cells work too hard and cause some of them to die. This is what causes hearing loss.
Some people might think that their music isn't all that loud. But this can depend on where you are. For example, if you are in a noisy place like the subway, you might turn up your music too loud without realizing it. Later, when you listen to it at the same volume in a quiet place， you might feel uncomfortable.
The World Health Organization said the “safe level" for most sounds is below 80 dB for up to 40 hours a week. A level of 80 dB is roughly equal to (大约相当于) the noise of a subway.
12. Many young people are at risk of hearing loss because they________.
A. watch TV every day
B. listen to music every day
C. listen to loud noise in the subway
D. listen to loud noise for a long time
13. The sound level of a rock concert is about________.
A. 80 dB B. 85 dB
C. 100 dB D. 110 dB
14. What is loud noise harmful to？
A. The inner ears. B. The brain.
C. The heart. D. The eyes.
15. What is the best title of the passage？
A. Keep the Loud Volumes B. Loud Noise Is Harmful to Hearing
C. The Risk of Listening to Music D. Loud Noise Stops Ears from Working
【答案】12. D 13. C 14. A 15. B
【解析】
【分析】这是一篇说明文。文章讲述了过于吵闹的声音对听力造成损害。
【12题详解】
细节理解题。由第一段中的“Over one billion (十亿) young people are at risk of hearing loss (失聪) because of listening to loud noise for long periods of time. (超过10亿的年轻人因为长时间听噪音而有失聪的危险)”可知，许多年轻人有失聪的危险，因为他们长时间听大声的噪音。故选D项。
【13题详解】
细节理解题。由第二段中的“The sound of a busy road is about 85 dB and the sound of a rock concert can be about 100 dB. (繁忙道路的声音约为85分贝，摇滚音乐会的声音约为100分贝)”可知，摇滚音乐会的音量大约为100分贝。故选C项。
【14题详解】
细节理解题。由第三段中的“Loud noise is harmful to the inner ears (内耳). (大噪音对内耳有害)”可知，大噪音对内耳有害。故选A项。
【15题详解】
主旨大意题。由第一段中的“Listening to music or watching a TV show at loud volumes is harmful to your hearing. (大声听音乐或看电视节目对你的听力有害)”，第三段中的“Loud noise is harmful to the inner ears (内耳). (大噪音对内耳有害)”和下文关于“大噪音对听力有害”的内容可知，文章主要讲大噪音对听力造成的损害，B项“大噪音对听力有害”符合文意。故选B项。

38. worrying

【解析】
【分析】本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了作者第一天上高中的所见，所闻和所感。
【详解】1.考查时态。句意：经过一个长长的暑假，我在高中的新生活最终开始了。联系上下文，本篇讲述过去的事情，故用一般过去时，此处为句子谓语，主语my new life和谓语动词begin是主动关系。故填began。
2.考查形容词。句意：早上我有点紧张，担心我交不到新朋友。根据was判断此处应用形容词作表语。故填anxious。
3.考查非谓语动词。句意：早上我有点紧张，担心我交不到新朋友。分析句子结构可知，此处应用非谓语动词，逻辑主语I和worry之间是主动关系，故用现在分词。故填worrying。
4.考查介词。句意：然而，一切证明没问题。根据句意可知，此处应译为“证明是，结果是”，其固定表达为turn out。故填out。
5.考查名词。句意：我的老师和同学都给我留下了好印象。根据a good判断此处用名词impression单数形式做made的宾语。故填impression。
6.考查固定结构。句意：事实上我一个同学太能说了以至于实验期间他都一直在和我讲话。根据句意和so判断此处为固定结构so…that…（如此……以至于）。故填that。
7.考查连词。句意：或许他只是为了让我印象深刻，但是我感觉有点生气，因为我不能集中精力。根据句意可知，我生气的原因是因为我不能集中注意力，所以这里表原因，用because引导原因状语从句。故填because。
8.考查固定搭配。句意：我太害怕了以至于不敢告诉他别理我。根据固定搭配too…to...(太……而不能……)可知，此处应用不定式。故填to tell。
9.考查指示代词。句意：这些课比初中的课难得多。根据句意可知，此处应用词来代指“初中的课”，在这种前后进行对比的句型中，指代同类异物通常用that或者those，that代指单数或不可数，those代指可数名词复数。故填those。
10.考查不定式作后置定语。句意：对我来说还有很多可以探索的东西。此处考查不定式作后置定语修饰a lot，a lot to explore很多要探索的东西，故填to explore。

第二节读后续写（满分25分）
47. 阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。
A light knock on the door brought me from my kitchen. Because we had just moved into the neighborhood, I couldn’t imagine who it would be. Opening the door, an old man stood there, who was dressed in dirty clothing and wearing dirty rubber boots. His hand hung a plastic bag.
“Can I help you ” I asked
“Would you like to buy some fresh garden vegetables ” His blue eyes were hopeful.
“Are they from your garden ” I looked inside his plastic bag and saw some carrots with soil.
“Yes,” his voice was soft. “And I can get some apples from a tree in my yard. Would you like some of those, too ”
My heart softened, and I wondered if he was badly in need of money. With a sigh, I said, “Please step inside and I’ll get my money.”
The next day, he knocked at our door again. This time, my little four-year-old daughter got there first. “Oh, hello. Would you like to come in for some tea ” Without a second thought, the old man stepped inside and held out a broken basket with several apples. “From my tree,” he said, removing a worn cap. “You might like to make a pie.”
The three of us sat at the kitchen table and drank our tea. It was obvious that my daughter liked hosting a visitor in her never-ending questions. “What is your name Where do you live Why are your clothes so dirty ”
The homeless-looking man laughed as he answered each question. His name was Mr. Locket and he lived around the corner. His wife had passed away several years ago, and his children all lived far away. He was lonely. His need for company had sent him door to door selling fruit and vegetables. Ours was the only door opened to him that day.
注意：1. 续写词数应为100左右；
2. 开头已给出。
Paragraph 1:
When he finished the tea, he said he had to go home and promised to return the next day.
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Paragraph 2:
Several years later, a small envelope was delivered to our home—a letter from the old man’s daughter.
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】Paragraph 1:
When he finished the tea, he said he had to go home and promised to return the next day. My daughter excitedly waited for his next visit and made full preparations. As the old man visited us the next day, he was amazed by all of the preparations for him, including apple pies. His eyes were filled with tears. We became friends, and my daughter and I enjoyed the company the old visitor offered us. But before long, he had to move to live with his daughter and we hadn’t seen him ever since.
Paragraph 2:
Several years later, a small envelope was delivered to our home—a letter from the old man’s daughter. She informed us that our dear old friend had passed away and sent us another letter written by the old man, which said, “Thank you for all your kindnesses to an old man. When I was lonely, you took me in. When I was badly in need of a family, you accepted me. My last few years are filled with happiness because of you.”
【解析】
【分析】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了Mr. Locket的妻子几年前去世了，他的子女都离得远，他一个人孤独地生活，为了排解孤独他上门向邻居推销自己种的蔬菜和水果。作者刚刚搬来这个社区，Mr. Locket敲响了她家的门，并且请他进门，第二天他再来时还请他喝了茶，作者一家是唯一给他开门的邻居。
【详解】1.段落续写：
①由第一段首句内容“喝完茶后，他说他得回家，并答应第二天再来。”可知，第一段可描写作者和女儿之后和Locket先生的相处过程，作者的女儿非常喜欢他，后来老人搬去与女儿同住，他们失去了联系。
②由第二段首句内容“几年后，一个小信封送到了我们家——一封老人女儿的信。”可知，第二段可描写老人女儿信中的内容，信中提到Locket先生给作者写了封信，信里感谢作者的陪伴。
2.续写线索：Locket先生来作者家——作者及女儿和Locket先生成为朋友——失去联系——收到老人女儿来信——信中老人感谢作者

Central Park
Explore Central Park, one of the largest city parks in the world and one of the most famous symbols of New York. Let’s have a look at its main sights.
Central Park is New York’s largest city park and one of the biggest in the world, with an area of 843 acres (about 3.4km2). This park is home to man-made lakes, waterfalls, grass and wooded areas. You will also find the Central Park Zoo, among other attractions in this greenspace of New York.
Besides being the city’s primary green lungs, Central Park is also a favorite spot for many New Yorkers. It is perfect for sunbathing, going for walks, or doing any outdoor sports. Something that we found curious is seeing so many people running with their babies in prams (婴儿车).
On Foot or by Bicycle
To get to know some of the wildest parts of Central Park we suggest walking. However, to get a general feel for the whole park, the best thing to do is hire a bicycle and enjoy the scenery.
If you decide to hire a bike, you will find lots of bike rental stores around Central Park that are not very expensive.
Open Time
From 7 a.m. to 10 p.m. on weekends.
From 6 a.m. to 8:30 p.m. on weekdays.
Price
Entry to the Park is free. But if you visit some parts like Central Park Zoo, you need to buy a ticket.

In the subway station, I notice a black teenage boy waiting for the train, sitting on a railing(栏杆) just in front of a moving escalator(扶梯). It’s a hot evening; there is no air in the station. This black kid is just sitting there, settled on the railing, and I’m just standing there about 10 feet away looking for the faraway lights of the oncoming train. Then suddenly a white police officer is asking the kid for identification. The kid turns a little annoyed and asks what he’s been bothering about. The officer doesn’t explain. The kid pulls out some I.D. and hands it to the officer who looks at it and then barks out a demand for something with an address on it, a driver’s license.
Unwillingly the kid pulls out a second piece of identification. The officer looks at it and tells the kid to come with him. Nothing I have seen or heard explains the officer’s strict approach or why the kid is being led away.
I get up to the officer and politely ask what this guy did and where he is taking him. He looks at me like I’m armed and crazy and tells me that it’s none of my business and to stay out of this.
“Could I please take down your badge(警徽) number, sir, as I’d like to report all this,” I say.
“Take down my badge number and then you show me a piece of identification. What are you, some lawyer ”
I copy down his badge number and then show him my driver’s license asking, “Could you please tell me what this is all for ”
Looking at me over and again asking if I’m a lawyer, he tells me he’s taking the kid in for blocking the escalator and me in for “obstructing a police action.” Another black man hearing all this asks what’s going on and the officer gets very nervous. So I decide to go with him to his office. Then the officer gives his version of what happened and I politely interrupt to explain that the kid was in no way blocking the escalator traffic and that I was in no way “obstructing a police action”, not adding that I thought the way the officer handling the situation was racist and unnecessarily strict.
After this experience in the police station, I’m still wondering whether a well-dressed white man will be faced with a sharp command for identification for sitting on an escalator railing waiting for a train If a bystander does want to get involved and inquire about an apparently unfair arrest, is a policeman’s only response a second arrest Will our police officers always be seen by black kids as evils Is my charge with racism too strong
4. What is the black teenager doing at the train station

C. He is waiting for the train.
D. He is damaging the escalator.
5 Why does the author stand out to help the black teenager

B. Subway stations are good places to hang about.

D. Situations like this in the passage will never change.

Living the light life
Many of us like to dine ( 吃 饭 ) out and treat ourselves to delicious food. We are used to choosing hearty, fat-filled dishes and sugar-charged desserts, which are not easily cooked at home.
The recent rise of light meals, however, gives diners a smarter choice. According to Economic Daily, low-calorie, low-fat and high-fiber ( 高纤维的) meals have become popular in China's restaurants and online delivery platforms.
The country saw a rapid expansion of restaurants specializing in light meals, from just 600 in 2017 to more than 3,500 in 2018. According to a report released by Meituan, a major online food delivery platform, the number of light meals ordered online also rose 75 percent from the previous year.
Having a light meal, however, doesn't mean eating only vegetables. Different from the meat-free lifestyle, a typical light dish avoids oily, salty and spicy food. Instead, it contains things like boiled meat, whole grains, fruits and vegetables. Healthy nutrients (营养成分) are the theme of the light meal.
These dishes are useful for keeping healthy and controlling your weight. That's probably why so many people, especially millennials (千禧一代), are into them. Diners see it as “a great way to avoid bloating (变胖),” wrote the Telegraph.
“After eating several light meals, I felt my appetite has shrunk (缩小). I now prefer light flavors,” Zou Jing, a college teacher in Wuhan, told China Daily. She shared a picture of her lunch: a mixture of beef, eggs, corn, mushrooms and cherry tomatoes.
These changes in eating behavior are connected to deeper changes in how people think about food, says Walter Willett, chair of the nutrition department at the Harvard T.Chan School of Public Health, US. “Diet quality, not quantity, is important for both weight control and long-term well-being,” Willett told The New York Times.
So the next time you have a party with friends, try a light meal. It will satisfy not only your stomachs but maybe also your hearts.
8. What are light meals
A. Low-calorie and high-fiber meals. B. Meat-free dishes.
C. Sugar-charged desserts. D. Fat-filled dishes.
9. What is the main way that the author used to prove the popularity of light meals
A. Giving descriptions. B. Giving examples.
C. Listing numbers. D. Showing other people's opinions.
10. Why do many young people enjoy light meals, according to the article
A. They can help people control their weight. B. They are simple and convenient.
C. They are cheaper than other meals. D. They are usually colorful.
11. What do we know from the second to last paragraph
A. Light meals will stay popular for a while.
B. There is a change in attitude toward healthy eating.
C. One's eating habit shows their personality.
D. It's important to eat the right amount of good food.
D
Do you often listen to music at loud volumes (音量)？Over one billion (十亿) young people are at risk of hearing loss (失聪) because of listening to loud noise for long periods of time. Listening to music or watching a TV show at loud volumes is harmful to your hearing.
The United Nations has standards for safe listening. It is not safe to listen to sounds that are louder than 85 decibels (dB 分贝) for eight hours or 100 dB for 15 minutes. The sound of a busy road is about 85 dB and the sound of a rock concert can be about 100 dB.
Loud noise is harmful to the inner ears (内耳). Most of us are born with about 16,000 hair cells (听毛细胞) in our inner ears. However, listening to loud noise for a long time can make these cells work too hard and cause some of them to die. This is what causes hearing loss.
Some people might think that their music isn't all that loud. But this can depend on where you are. For example, if you are in a noisy place like the subway, you might turn up your music too loud without realizing it. Later, when you listen to it at the same volume in a quiet place， you might feel uncomfortable.
The World Health Organization said the “safe level" for most sounds is below 80 dB for up to 40 hours a week. A level of 80 dB is roughly equal to (大约相当于) the noise of a subway.
12. Many young people are at risk of hearing loss because they________.
A. watch TV every day
B. listen to music every day
C. listen to loud noise in the subway
D. listen to loud noise for a long time
13. The sound level of a rock concert is about________.
A. 80 dB B. 85 dB
C. 100 dB D. 110 dB
14. What is loud noise harmful to？
A. The inner ears. B. The brain.
C. The heart. D. The eyes.
15. What is the best title of the passage？
A. Keep the Loud Volumes B. Loud Noise Is Harmful to Hearing
C. The Risk of Listening to Music D. Loud Noise Stops Ears from Working

47. 阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。
A light knock on the door brought me from my kitchen. Because we had just moved into the neighborhood, I couldn’t imagine who it would be. Opening the door, an old man stood there, who was dressed in dirty clothing and wearing dirty rubber boots. His hand hung a plastic bag.
“Can I help you ” I asked.
“Would you like to buy some fresh garden vegetables ” His blue eyes were hopeful.
“Are they from your garden ” I looked inside his plastic bag and saw some carrots with soil.
“Yes,” his voice was soft. “And I can get some apples from a tree in my yard. Would you like some of those, too ”
My heart softened, and I wondered if he was badly in need of money. With a sigh, I said, “Please step inside and I’ll get my money.”
The next day, he knocked at our door again. This time, my little four-year-old daughter got there first. “Oh, hello. Would you like to come in for some tea ” Without a second thought, the old man stepped inside and held out a broken basket with several apples. “From my tree,” he said, removing a worn cap. “You might like to make a pie.”
The three of us sat at the kitchen table and drank our tea. It was obvious that my daughter liked hosting a visitor in her never-ending questions. “What is your name Where do you live Why are your clothes so dirty ”
The homeless-looking man laughed as he answered each question. His name was Mr. Locket and he lived around the corner. His wife had passed away several years ago, and his children all lived far away. He was lonely. His need for company had sent him door to door selling fruit and vegetables. Ours was the only door opened to him that day.
注意：1. 续写词数应为100左右；
2. 开头已给出。
Paragraph 1:
When he finished the tea, he said he had to go home and promised to return the next day.
