A
Cities are likely to be affected by overheating，thanks to something called the urban heat island effect.Cities tend to be short of trees，which provide shade，and they are covered with black pavement，which absorbs heat from the sun.Think of how it feels to wear a dark shirt versus a white shirt on a sunny day.A black shirt absorbs light，heating you up.But a white shirt reflects light，keeping you cool.
The average temperature in a city of a million or more people can be more than 5 degrees F hotter than surrounding areas.That extra 5 degrees can turn a hot day from uncomfortable to deadly.As temperatures rise，cities will be an especially dangerous place to be during a heat wave.To protect public health，city officials are going to make the city cooler.
As part of that effort，Los Angeles is coating its roads in CoolSeal，a gray paint that keeps streets and parking lots 10 degrees cooler than black asphalt(沥青)．It will help Angelenos save money during the summer，when air conditioning sends power bills soaring.And it will save lives by lowering temperatures and improving air quality.Hot weather worsens air pollution by turning car exhaust into smog，which can make life miserable for people with asthma(哮喘)and other breathing problems.
Of course，LA will have to do more than paint over a few streets to cool off the city.Angelenos will also need to plant more trees and apply white paint to rooftops—at least those not already covered in solar panels.While LA is a pioneer of reflective streets，other cities，like New York，are already experimenting with reflective roofs or，like Melbourne，lowering the temperature by planting trees.LA is hardly alone in its effort to stay cool.
“This is an urgent challenge，and it's much bigger than one person，” said Mayor Garcetti in a recent statement.“Climate change is a fact of life that people in Los Angeles and cities around the world live with every day.”
1．Which of the following contributes to the urban heat island effect

A．How to make the city cooler.
B．Where to wear a white shirt.
C．Why to coat the roads with black paint.
D．When to cut off the electricity supply.
3．What benefit can people gain from the use of CoolSeal
A．Increasing the indoor activities.
B．Promoting the sale of air conditioners.
C．Making life easier and more comfortable.
D．Reducing the number of cold days.
4．What's the main idea of the passage
A．LA adopted many approaches to fight against the heat.

Barcelona's famous Sagrada Familia is finally set to get a building license to work on the still uncompleted church.
This UNESCO World Heritage basilica (长方形基督教堂)，which is Barcelona's most visited tourist attraction，began building in 1882 based on a design by architect Francisco Lozano.However，when he stepped down，architect Antoni Gaudi took over the design in 1883.The building won't be finished until 2026—one hundred years after the architect was killed by a streetcar in the city.His body was buried in a room under the floor of the Sagrada Familia.
To get its paperwork rubber stamped，the church authorities have agreed to finally pay the government a 36 million fee for a building permit.Gaudi was told to get the paperwork processed，but the architect failed to do so—proceeding with construction.The money from the church's permit will be used to upgrade transport links and beautify the area.
Gaudi played an active role in directing the construction of the Sagrada Familia until his death in 1926.He would often request that work be modified and adjusted until it was exactly what he had in mind.However, interpretation of the designs by present day architects is particularly challenging because of the nature of the existing designs.
Gaudi and his works have become symbols of Barcelona, the capital city of Catalonia, northeast Spain.The unfinished building is called a masterpiece of Gothic architecture and it is perhaps the most unique and mysterious building in the style ever constructed.The popularity of the site with tourists has helped fund the push to complete the church and pay for the paperwork.
5．What do we know about the Sagrada Familia
A．It has been completely constructed.
B．It was first designed by Antoni Gaudi.
C．It will get a building permit in 2026.
D．It began to be built about 140 years ago.
6．What can we infer about Antoni Gaudi
A．He wished to be buried in the church.
B．He is remembered as a great architect.
C．He didn't know a permit was necessary.
D．He is to blame for the unfinished church.
7．What makes the Sagrada Familia so popular
A．Its unusual design style.
B．Its two famous architects.
C．Its special building materials.
D．Its illegal construction paperwork.
8．The church managed to pay for the license ．
A．in the support of the government
B．by reducing construction costs

Violent Games：Fun or Harmful
If you play lots of video games，you've probably blown a zombie(僵尸) into tiny bits. 1 Many adults worry that playing such games could make children act violently in real life.Is that true
The American Academy of Pediatrics(儿科) says that violence in any kind of media—from TV to music to video games—presents a risk to kids' health.A number of studies have shown a link between video games and aggression，including one published in JAMA Pediatrics in 2014，which found that kids who played violent video games showed an increase in aggressive thoughts and behaviors. 2
But not all studies agree that violent games cause kids to act out.Another study replaced violent deaths with evaporation(蒸发) in a game. 3 People who played the non violent game without any training were more aggressive afterward than people who played the violent version but learned to control themselves first.
And here's an even stranger fact：When violent video games are released，people carry out fewer violent crimes！Why 4 Steve Levitt，co author of the book Freakonomics，said，“If you can make video games fun enough，then kids will stop watching TV，and they'll stop going out and creating violent disorder on the street.”
What do you think 5
A．One possible explanation：potential criminals are at home playing the new game.
B．Then，before playing the game，some people received training and others didn't.
C．More than 3，000 kids answered survey questions during a two year period.
D．For example，thinking it's OK to hit someone you don't like.
E．Have you ever played any violent video games
F．Do violent video games cause bad behavior
G．Some games even pile up dead bodies.

1．G [根据本空前的“If you play lots of video games，you've probably blown a zombie(僵尸) into tiny bits.”可知，如果你玩很多电子游戏，你可能已经把僵尸炸成了碎片，故G项(有些游戏甚至把尸体堆起来)符合语境。]

3．B [根据本空后的“People who played the non violent game...to control themselves first.”可知，那些没有经过任何训练就玩非暴力游戏的人比那些玩暴力游戏但先学会控制自己的人在游戏结束后更具攻击性，故B项符合语境。]
4．A [根据本空前的“When violent video games are released，people carry out fewer violent crimes！Why？”可知，当暴力电子游戏发行时，人们实施的暴力犯罪更少了，这是为什么？故A项符合语境。]

Violent Games：Fun or Harmful
If you play lots of video games，you've probably blown a zombie(僵尸) into tiny bits. 1 Many adults worry that playing such games could make children act violently in real life.Is that true
The American Academy of Pediatrics(儿科) says that violence in any kind of media—from TV to music to video games—presents a risk to kids' health.A number of studies have shown a link between video games and aggression，including one published in JAMA Pediatrics in 2014，which found that kids who played violent video games showed an increase in aggressive thoughts and behaviors. 2
But not all studies agree that violent games cause kids to act out.Another study replaced violent deaths with evaporation(蒸发) in a game. 3 People who played the non violent game without any training were more aggressive afterward than people who played the violent version but learned to control themselves first.
And here's an even stranger fact：When violent video games are released，people carry out fewer violent crimes！Why 4 Steve Levitt，co author of the book Freakonomics，said，“If you can make video games fun enough，then kids will stop watching TV，and they'll stop going out and creating violent disorder on the street.”
What do you think 5
A．One possible explanation：potential criminals are at home playing the new game.
B．Then，before playing the game，some people received training and others didn't.
C．More than 3，000 kids answered survey questions during a two year period.
D．For example，thinking it's OK to hit someone you don't like.
E．Have you ever played any violent video games
F．Do violent video games cause bad behavior
G．Some games even pile up dead bodies.

2．D [根据本空前的“which found that kids who played violent video games showed an increase in aggressive thoughts and behaviors.”可知，一个研究表明玩暴力电子游戏的孩子表现出攻击性思维和行为的增加，故D项符合语境。]
3．B [根据本空后的“People who played the non violent game...to control themselves first.”可知，那些没有经过任何训练就玩非暴力游戏的人比那些玩暴力游戏但先学会控制自己的人在游戏结束后更具攻击性，故B项符合语境。]
4．A [根据本空前的“When violent video games are released，people carry out fewer violent crimes！Why？”可知，当暴力电子游戏发行时，人们实施的暴力犯罪更少了，这是为什么？故A项符合语境。]
