三、阅读理解
The traffic signals along Factoria Boulevard in Bellevue, Washington, generally don't flash the same length of green twice in a row, especially at rush hour. At 9:30 am, the full red/yellow/green signal cycle might be 140 seconds. By 9:33 am, a burst of additional traffic might push it to 145 seconds. Less traffic at 9:37 am could push it down to 135. Just like the traffic itself, the timing of the signals changes.
That is by design. Bellevue, a fast-growing city just east of Seattle, uses a system that is gaining popularity around the US: intersection(十字路口) signals that can adjust in real time to traffic conditions. These lights, known as adaptive signals, have led to significant declines in both the trouble and cost of travels between work and home.
"Adaptive signals can make sure that the traffic demand that is there is being addressed," says Alex Stevanovic, a researcher at Florida Atlantic University.
For all of Bellevue's success, adaptive signals are not a cure-all for jammed roadways. Kevin Balke, a research engineer at the Texas A&M University Transportation Institute, says that while smart lights can be particularly beneficial for some cities, others are so jammed that only a sharp reduction in the number of cars on the road will make a meaningful difference. "It's not going to fix everything, but adaptive signals have some benefits for smaller cities," he says.
In Bellevue, the switch to adaptive signals has been a lesson in the value of welcoming new approaches. In the past, there was often an automatic reaction to increased traffic: just widen the roads, says Mark Poch, the Bellevue Transportation Department's traffic engineering manager. Now he hopes that other cities will consider making their streets run smarter instead of just making them bigger.
1.What does the underlined word "That" in Paragraph 2 refer to
A.Increased length of green lights. B.The shortened traffic signal cycle.
C.Flexible timing of traffic signals. D.Smooth traffic flow on the road.
2.What does Kevin Balke say about adaptive signals
A.They work better on broad roads. B.They should be used in other cities.
C.They have greatly reduced traffic on the road. D.They are less helpful in cities seriously jammed.
3.What can we learn from Bellevue's success
A.It is rewarding to try new things. B.The old methods still work today.
C.It pays to put theory into practice. D.The simplest way is the best way.
四、语法填空
Going to Mount Huangshan reminds me of the popular Beatles' song "The Long and Winding Road". ①_____ is so breathtaking about the experience is the out-of-this-world scenes. The rolling sea of clouds you see once you are at the top will remind you how tiny we ②_____(human) are.
The hot spring at the foot of the mountain is something you must try after the climb. It will ③_____(undoubted) help you get refreshed!

What comes next is the endless series of steps. You can't help wondering how hard it ⑥_____(be) for the people then to put all those rocks into place. Though it is the only unnatural thing on your way up the mountain, still it highlights the whole adventure ⑦_____ offers a place where you can sit down to rest your ⑧_____(ache) legs.

答案以及解析
一、
1.答案：have been discussing
2.答案：has covered
3.答案：performs
4.答案：successful
5.答案：highly
二、
6.答案：classics
7.答案：tension
8.答案：adapted
9.答案：system
10.答案：waved
解析：句意:看着木匠在夕阳下离开,两兄弟感激地向他挥手告别。wave“挥手;挥舞”,从语境可知是过去的事,应用一般过去时。
三、
答案：1-3.CDA
解析：1.代词指代题。根据文章第一段中的"The traffic signals...By 9:33 am, a burst of...Less traffic at 9:37 am...changes."可以推知, That指代第一段中的多变的交通信号灯时间, 故选C项。
2.细节理解题。根据文章第四段中的"others are so jammed that only..."和"It's not going to fix everything, but adaptive signals have some benefits for smaller cities"可知, Kevin Balke认为可调节式的交通信号灯对小城市的交通改善是有用的, 但对交通极度拥堵的城市而言, 作用并不是非常大, 故选D项。
3.推理判断题。根据文章最后一段中的"the switch to adaptive signals has been a lesson in the value of welcoming new approaches"可推知, 从Bellevue装可调节式交通信号灯一事上不难发现, 它的成功在于积极尝试新事物, 故选A项。
四、
答案：①What ②humans ③undoubtedly ④hotter ⑤astonished ⑥was ⑦and ⑧aching ⑨mine ⑩a
解析：①考查名词性从句。分析句子结构并结合语境可知, 本空引导主语从句, 且在从句中做主语, 意为"......的事物"。本空位于句首, 首字母应大写, 故填What。
②考查名词的单复数。本空做宾语从句主语we的同位语, 故应该用名词的复数形式。
③考查副词。分析句子结构可知, 空处做状语修饰动词help, 故填undoubtedly。
④考查形容词比较级。根据语境可知气温越低, 温泉就越热。本空所在句使用了"the+比较级..., the+比较级..."结构表示"越......, 越......", 故本空填hot的比较级hotter。
⑤考查形容词。本空在"leave+复合宾语"结构中做宾语补足语。astonished吃惊的, 惊讶的; astonishing令人惊讶的。根据语境可知, 这里指的是使我们惊讶, 故填astonished。
⑥考查时态。句中有时间状语then, 因此这里说的是当初人们把那些石头放在固定的位置上(即做成石头台阶)很难, 本空填was。
⑦考查连词。本空连接两个谓语动词(highlights和offers), 表示顺接关系, 因此这里填并列连词and。
⑧考查非谓语动词。本空在句中做定语, ache与中心词legs是逻辑上的主动关系, 故用现在分词aching。
⑨考查代词。与前面的"it will always stick in the visitor's memory"呼应, 这里表示"It sure sticks in my memory", 因此本空填名词性物主代词mine。
⑩考查冠词。此处must表示"必须做的事", 为可数名词, 通常用单数。a must表示"一件必须做的事"。
