A
(2020·全国Ⅱ高考)
Some parents will buy any high-tech toy if they think it will help their child,but researchers said puzzles help children with math-related skills.
Psychologist Susan Levine,an expert on mathematics development in young children at the University of Chicago,found children who play with puzzles between ages 2 and 4 later develop better spatial skills.Puzzle play was found to be a significant predictor of cognition(认知) after controlling for differences in parents’ income,education and the amount of parent talk,Levine said.
The researchers analysed video recordings of 53 child-parent pairs during everyday activities at home and found children who play with puzzles between 26 and 46 months of age have better spatial skills when assessed at 54 months of age.
“The children who played with puzzles performed better than those who did not,on tasks that assessed their ability to rotate(旋转) and translate shapes,” Levine said in a statement.
The parents were asked to interact with their children as they normally would,and about half of the children in the study played with puzzles at one time.Higher-income parents tended to have children play with puzzles more frequently,and both boys and girls who played with puzzles had better spatial skills.However,boys tended to play with more complex puzzles than girls,and the parents of boys provided more spatial language and were more active during puzzle play than the parents of girls.
The findings were published in the journal Developmental Science.
21.In which aspect do children benefit from puzzle play
A.Building confidence.
B.Developing spatial skills.
C.Learning self-control.
D.Gaining high-tech knowledge.
22.What did Levine take into consideration when designing her experiment
A.Parents’ age.
B.Children’s imagination.
C.Parents’ education.
D.Child-parent relationship.
23.How do boys differ from girls in puzzle play
A.They play with puzzles more often.
B.They tend to talk less during the game.
C.They prefer to use more spatial language.
D.They are likely to play with tougher puzzles.
24.What is the text mainly about
A.A mathematical method.
B.A scientific study.
C.A woman psychologist.
D.A teaching programme.
B
Each year there are at least five million people around the world who develop serious flu (流感),and it causes almost half a million deaths.When someone we know gets the flu virus,we expect them to be very careful not to pass it on to others.Doctors and nurses working with flu patients also need to protect themselves from the virus.But what is the best way to do this
This is the question that flu expert Professor Jonathan Van-Tam at Nottingham University is trying to answer.He wants to find out how flu is transmitted,so that he can stop doctors and nurses getting sick.
Van-Tam explains their method,“There are 41 volunteers in my experiment.Some healthy volunteers are made to get flu first.When they show symptoms,other volunteers,usually called recipients (接受者),enter the house.Everyone lives together in the small space for four days.Some of the recipients wear face masks,and wash their hands every 15 minutes,but some have no protection.In this way we can study who catches the flu and which ways of transmitting flu are important.During the four days when they are in contact with the virus,and for the ten days after that,the flu recipients are checked regularly.”
The experiment is not simple and it is very expensive.It is difficult to design correctly,and it is also difficult to plan and carry out.Just one study like this takes about 18 months to organise and needs hundreds of people working on it.But Van-Tam believes it is worth because the results will help to decide what type of protection is needed for people working in hospitals with large numbers of flu patients around the world.And perhaps it could reduce the number of deaths from flu each year.
25.Which word can replace the underlined word “transmitted” in paragraph 2
A.Solved. B.Passed.
C.Formed. D.Stopped.
26.What is the main purpose of this study
A.To find out who gets the flu easily.
B.To reduce the number of people who die of flu.
C.To test the medicines for people who develop serious flu.
D.To find the best way to protect doctors and nurses from the flu.
27.According to the text,which of the statements is true
A.This type of study lasts 18 months.
B.The experiment is neither simple nor expensive.
C.Wearing masks is the best way to protect people from getting flu.
D.Recipients are divided into at least 2 groups to perform the experiment.
C
There are many colours in nature.But do you think that a colour has weight I think you’ll say “no”.But I’m afraid you are wrong.If you don’t believe it,you may do a small experiment.
First,put two objects with the same weight into two boxes.Then cover the boxes.Third,wrap (包;裹) one box with a red piece of paper,the other one with a white piece of paper.OK.Now hold the boxes with your hand one by one.It is certain that you will think the red one is a little heavier.
Why do you think so A scientist found that different colours have different weights in man’s mind.That is to say,every colour has its own weight in our mind.
The scientist told us that colours also have smell.Can you smell the colour Of course not.Then why did the scientist say so That is because every colour stands for (代表) a kind of light with a certain wavelength(波长).It reaches our brain through sense organs (器官).
According to this discovery,scientists say that people accept the colours they like,and refuse the colours they hate.So your body and mind will be healthy with the colours you like.Or you’ll be nervous or even get ill.For example,you like blue and hate red.If you stay in a room with red windows,wallpaper and furniture for two hours,you’ll feel you have been there for four hours.But if the room is blue,you’ll feel you have been there for only an hour.And,if a person walks out of a blue room and into a red room,his temperature will rise.That means our body temperature will change with different colours.
28.From the experiment,we know that .
A.the two boxes have the same weight
B.colours can change the weight of an object
C.the red paper is heavier than the white paper
D.colours have different weights in people’s mind
29.From the fourth paragraph,we can infer .
A.the smell of colours is changeable (可变的)
B.people can sense the light from colours
C.people can smell the colours through the nose
D.all the colours have the same smell for the blind
30.Which of the following is true
A.White colour is heavier than red colour.
B.People can stay longer in red rooms than in blue rooms.
C.People may get ill if they refuse the colours they don’t like.
D.People’s body temperature will change with different colours.
31.The passage is probably .
A.a short novel
B.a news report
C.a science report
D.an advertisement
D
3-D printers are very hot today.They are being put to all kinds of uses,ranging from creating car models for movies to architectural models.However,none of these ideas are as shocking as the one suggested by Anjan Contractor,who believes that they will be the key to ending world hunger.
According to some experts,world population will increase to 10-12 billion by the end of this century.This means that food will become very expensive and possibly,even out of reach,for billions of people.
This is where 3-D printing may save the day.Anjan thinks that the only way to solve the problem will be to equip every kitchen with a 3-D printer and print out meals from tubes of powder and oil.He believes that these meals with a shelf life of over 30 years would result in less food wastage.
Most important of all,it would be easier to make food from things that we now do not consider edible(可食用的).A great example of that is the protein from meat.Most experts believe that as the population grows,the supply is not going to be enough to feed everyone.Anjan believes that we could easily get the same protein from insects.Though all this futuristic food may sound unappealing,the scientists believe that when faced with a terrible food crisis,it will be very welcomed.
While this may sound a little difficult to believe,Anjan seems to have convinced the scientists at NASA,who are looking for a solution to feeding astronauts when they go on really long missions,like the one being planned to Mars.They gave Anjan $125,000 to start building the first real 3-D printer that creates the food.
Anjan is not the only one with this idea.A group led by Professor Hod Lipson has been experimenting with this idea since 2011 and has even succeeded in printing out cube-shaped creations from powdered milk and cookies with limited sugar!

32.The passage mainly talks about .
A.whether 3-D printers will have a bright future
B.3-D printers will be used in every field in future
C.3-D printers will solve the problem of the increasing population
D.whether 3-D printers will be the key to ending world hunger
33.It can be inferred that .
A.people get unappealing futuristic cube-shaped creations
B.3-D printers can only create powdered milk and cookies
C.futuristic food that contains protein can be made by 3-D printers from insects
D.insects will be the most popular food in the future,though unappealing now
34.Which group of people are mostly in need of 3-D printers
A.The people in Africa.
B.The scientists and researchers.
C.The astronauts working in space.
D.The farmers and off-land workers.
35.Where would you be most likely to find the text
A.On a notice board.
B.In a college newspaper.
C.In an institution brochure.
D.On a high technology website.

Today,people use the Internet to shop,play games,make friends and read the news.Many young people can’t imagine life without it. 36 In fact,the Internet has been used for a much longer time than most people think.
In 1957,the United States was in the middle of the Cold War.The Soviet Union had sent up the first satellite,named Sputnik,into space.This meant the Soviets were ahead of the US in technology.Americans were afraid. 37 One of the ideas was a network that would let people across the country communicate by using computers.
38 It was first tried out in 1969.For another twenty years,it was used only by scientists who worked with the US government and by some engineers.Then,in 1990,the army of America gave the control of the Internet to the National Science Foundation. 39
The biggest change in the way that people use the Internet came in 1992.For the first time,the Internet was opened to the general public,creating what is now known as the World Wide Web. 40 Today,no one government controls the Internet and it just gets bigger and bigger.It makes our world different.
A.The network took more than ten years to develop.
B.Soon,people began finding all kinds of different things they could do on the Internet.
C.Most older people,on the other hand,think the Internet is only 10 or 15 years old.
D.People began to be fond of the Internet.
E.They didn’t know what to do.
F.The Internet then became available to colleges all over the United States and to scientists across Europe.
G.Scientists in the army of America started developing ideas for protecting the country.

On a bright,warm July afternoon,Mac Hollan,a primary school teacher was cycling from his home to Alaska with his friends.One of his friends had stopped to make a bicycle repair,but they had encouraged Mac to carry on,and they would catch up with him soon.As Mac pedaled (骑行)along alone,he thought fondly of his wife and two young daughters at home.He hoped to show them this beautiful place someday.
Then Mac heard quick and loud breathing behind him.“Man,that’s a big dog!” he thought.But when he looked to the side,he saw instantly that it wasn’t a dog at all,but a wolf,quickly catching up with him.Mac’s heart began to race.He found out his can of bear spray.With one hand on the bars,he fired the spray at the wolf.A bright red cloud enveloped the animal,and to Mac’s relief,it fell back shaking its head.But a minute later,it was by his side again.Then it attacked the back of Mac’s bike,tearing open his tent bag.He fired at the wolf a second time,and again,it fell back only to quickly restart the chase (追赶).
Mac was pedaling hard now.He waved and yelled at passing cars but was careful not to slow down.He saw a steep uphill climb before him.He knew that once he hit the hill,he’d be easily caught up and the wolf’s teeth would be tearing into his flesh.
At this moment,Paul and Becky were driving their car on their way to Alaska.They didn’t think much of it when they saw two cyclists repairing their bike on the side of the road.A bit later,they spotted what they,too,assumed was a dog running alongside a man on a bike.As they got closer,they realised that the “dog” was a wolf.Mac heard a large vehicle behind him.He pulled in front of it as the wolf was catching up fast,just a dozen yards away now.
Paragraph 1:
The car abruptly stopped in front of him.
Paragraph 2:
A few minutes later,the other two cyclists arrived.

M:I just started a new job.My insurance doesn’t cover me until next month.
(Text 3)
W:Where are we I haven’t seen any road signs for miles,and there aren’t any houses,either.I think we took a wrong turn back there.
M:Yeah,I think you’re right.Pull over to the side of the road,and I’ll take a closer look at the map.
(Text 4)
M:That was expensive.I only got one dollar change.When I was young,even five dollars would have been a crazy price for an ice cream.

(Text 6)
W:Daddy,why is the sky blue
M:Oh,honey...it’s a little hard to explain.There are things you don’t understand about science yet.
W:Oh.I thought it was because the ocean is blue.The sky is always looking at the ocean,so it should be blue,too.
M:That’s a very good idea,Ruby!That is very close to the real reason,too.The sky has a lot to do with the ocean.They’re related,in a way.Did you ever notice that they’re never exactly the same colour It’s just like you and your brother Peter.You look alike because you’re related,but you don’t look exactly the same.
(Text 7)
W:Hi,I’m Alice.Is this your first day of college
M:I’m Chris.I’m actually just visiting the campus.This is my last year of high school,and I’m trying to choose a university.I got an offer from this school.My school fees will be paid if I come here...
W:You must be really smart,then!Not a lot of people get full scholarships.
M:I’m OK in school.The reason why I got the offer is that I’m a basketball player.
W:I might have guessed that.You’re very tall!
M:You should come to one of my games.Our first one is in two weeks.
W:Thanks.I’ll think about it.The last time I went to a game,I got hit in the face with a ball.
M:Was it a basketball game
W:No,it was a baseball game.I had to go to the hospital.
(Text 8)
W:I’m trying to get a book published,but I don’t know how to begin.Should I call a publisher or try to advertise it myself
M:Maybe you should ask Mr Wyatt.He knows a lot about the book industry.
W:Good idea!I always loved his English classes.He’s the reason that I started writing!
M:I’d like to read your book sometime though.How long is it I usually just read books that are less than 200 pages.Remember that book Ulysses which we read in Mr Wyatt’s class That is over 700 pages!
W:Oh yeah,that took forever to read.My book is not as thick as that.It’s probably about half that long.I won’t have an actually printed book to give you,at least in a few more months.The only things I have are computer files and my handwritten copies.
M:Can you just give me a computer file
W:Yes.I’ll do that right away.Please give me your honest opinion,after you finish reading it.It is the only way I can get better.
(Text 9)
W:I read an interesting article the other day.It had a lot of data on how people get their news.Did you know that in the United States,only 5% of people get their news from the radio
M:That makes sense.I only listen to music on the radio.Do most people get their news from the newspaper or television instead
W:Only 1% more people get it from newspapers,and most people get it from the Internet actually.
M:Wow,really I thought that most people would prefer getting news from the television.What about other countries Are they the same
W:Well,the article speaks about a few countries.France,Germany and Italy actually have the highest rates of television news watchers.Of those studied,Japan has the most newspaper readers.
M:That is really interesting.I don’t think I know a single person our age who listens to radio news either.My grandparents and their generation are the ones who grew up with that.
W:It’s amazing how our technology has changed many things in day-to-day life.I bet in one hundred years,people will get their news from something we can’t even dream of.
(Text 10)
W:Good morning,students.These are your morning announcements for Monday,December 10th.The midterm tests will be held this week from the 12th to the 14th.However,there have been some slight changes to the dates and the places of the exams.Last year,the English exams were on Wednesday,the math exams on Thursday,and the history exams were held on Friday.This year the teachers have agreed,after listening to students’ suggestions,to switch the dates of the math and history exams.As for the places,please check the message board in the main hall,or ask your teachers for a schedule.Tomorrow,we will have a special guest coming to visit us just before our school concert.As you know,one of our previous graduates won a gold medal in the last Olympics.He will be here to sign shirts and take pictures with students after an introduction by our P.E.teacher.Finally,the headmaster asks you to remind your parents to get here early for the concert.Although there will be enough seating in the gym,the parking lot gets full very quickly.That’s all for the announcements.Have a good week,everyone!

30.D 根据短文最后一段中的“For example,you like blue and hate red...And,if a person walks out of a blue room and into a red room,his temperature will rise.”可知,颜色会影响人们的体温。作者举了一个例子,假如你喜欢蓝色,讨厌红色,如果你从一个蓝色的房间走进一个红色的房间,你的体温就会升高。由此可知D项是正确的。
31.C 这篇短文给我们讲述了一些关于颜色的我们从来都没想过的事实。例如,颜色是有重量的,人们能感觉到颜色,颜色能影响我们的心情和健康等。由此可见,这篇短文应该是一个科学报告,短文中多处出现A scientist found that; The scientist told us that; scientists say that等字眼。故应选C项。
32.D 本文主要介绍3D食物打印机将来很可能解决世界粮食短缺的问题。
33.C 根据第四段中的“Anjan believes that we could easily get the same protein from insects.”可知,未来人们所摄取的蛋白质可以由3D打印机从昆虫身上获取。
34.C 根据第五段的陈述可知,目前宇航员急需这种高科技产品来解决他们在太空中长时间工作时的吃饭问题。
35.D 根据短文最后一句“For more information click here.”可知答案。

第一节
Yesterday morning,an inspirational meeting was held in our school.Many top students in our school shared their study experience and unique learning methods,which are beneficial to those who are confused about their studies.
First,I have realised that a positive attitude plays an important role in our studies.No matter what problems we may meet,we should always try our best to find solutions with strong determination.Then,I have known many useful learning methods and will apply them to my study.Lastly,I have become more confident about myself.I strongly believe I can prove my ability through hard work.
第二节
Paragraph 1:
The car abruptly stopped in front of him. Paul and Becky got out of the car immediately to give help.But with the bare hands,they didn’t dare to fight with the wolf.However,they still approached to the wolf bravely.At the same time,the wolf also noticed them and turned its head back,shouting loudly at Paul and Becky.Mac then jumped off the bicycle and was ready to fight against the wolf.That reached deadlock.
Paragraph 2:
A few minutes later,the other two cyclists arrived.They found the dangerous situation,where three men circled the wolf.Mac’s friends also jumped off their bicycles and joined the fight with the wolf.More and more cars stopped.Some drivers took out the sticks from the cars,and some took out the knives,even the guns towards the wolf.Just at that time,the wolf might feel the threats from the people starting to withdraw.Soon,it ran away off the road and disappeared in the distance.

Some parents will buy any high-tech toy if they think it will help their child,but researchers said puzzles help children with math-related skills.
Psychologist Susan Levine,an expert on mathematics development in young children at the University of Chicago,found children who play with puzzles between ages 2 and 4 later develop better spatial skills.Puzzle play was found to be a significant predictor of cognition(认知) after controlling for differences in parents’ income,education and the amount of parent talk,Levine said.
The researchers analysed video recordings of 53 child-parent pairs during everyday activities at home and found children who play with puzzles between 26 and 46 months of age have better spatial skills when assessed at 54 months of age.
“The children who played with puzzles performed better than those who did not,on tasks that assessed their ability to rotate(旋转) and translate shapes,” Levine said in a statement.
The parents were asked to interact with their children as they normally would,and about half of the children in the study played with puzzles at one time.Higher-income parents tended to have children play with puzzles more frequently,and both boys and girls who played with puzzles had better spatial skills.However,boys tended to play with more complex puzzles than girls,and the parents of boys provided more spatial language and were more active during puzzle play than the parents of girls.
The findings were published in the journal Developmental Science.
21.In which aspect do children benefit from puzzle play
A.Building confidence.
B.Developing spatial skills.
C.Learning self-control.
D.Gaining high-tech knowledge.
22.What did Levine take into consideration when designing her experiment
A.Parents’ age.
B.Children’s imagination.
C.Parents’ education.
D.Child-parent relationship.
23.How do boys differ from girls in puzzle play
A.They play with puzzles more often.
B.They tend to talk less during the game.
C.They prefer to use more spatial language.
D.They are likely to play with tougher puzzles.
24.What is the text mainly about
A.A mathematical method.
B.A scientific study.
C.A woman psychologist.
D.A teaching programme.

Each year there are at least five million people around the world who develop serious flu (流感),and it causes almost half a million deaths.When someone we know gets the flu virus,we expect them to be very careful not to pass it on to others.Doctors and nurses working with flu patients also need to protect themselves from the virus.But what is the best way to do this
This is the question that flu expert Professor Jonathan Van-Tam at Nottingham University is trying to answer.He wants to find out how flu is transmitted,so that he can stop doctors and nurses getting sick.
Van-Tam explains their method,“There are 41 volunteers in my experiment.Some healthy volunteers are made to get flu first.When they show symptoms,other volunteers,usually called recipients (接受者),enter the house.Everyone lives together in the small space for four days.Some of the recipients wear face masks,and wash their hands every 15 minutes,but some have no protection.In this way we can study who catches the flu and which ways of transmitting flu are important.During the four days when they are in contact with the virus,and for the ten days after that,the flu recipients are checked regularly.”
The experiment is not simple and it is very expensive.It is difficult to design correctly,and it is also difficult to plan and carry out.Just one study like this takes about 18 months to organise and needs hundreds of people working on it.But Van-Tam believes it is worth because the results will help to decide what type of protection is needed for people working in hospitals with large numbers of flu patients around the world.And perhaps it could reduce the number of deaths from flu each year.
25.Which word can replace the underlined word “transmitted” in paragraph 2
A.Solved. B.Passed.
C.Formed. D.Stopped.
26.What is the main purpose of this study
A.To find out who gets the flu easily.
B.To reduce the number of people who die of flu.
C.To test the medicines for people who develop serious flu.
D.To find the best way to protect doctors and nurses from the flu.
27.According to the text,which of the statements is true
A.This type of study lasts 18 months.
B.The experiment is neither simple nor expensive.
C.Wearing masks is the best way to protect people from getting flu.
D.Recipients are divided into at least 2 groups to perform the experiment.
C
There are many colours in nature.But do you think that a colour has weight I think you’ll say “no”.But I’m afraid you are wrong.If you don’t believe it,you may do a small experiment.
First,put two objects with the same weight into two boxes.Then cover the boxes.Third,wrap (包;裹) one box with a red piece of paper,the other one with a white piece of paper.OK.Now hold the boxes with your hand one by one.It is certain that you will think the red one is a little heavier.
Why do you think so A scientist found that different colours have different weights in man’s mind.That is to say,every colour has its own weight in our mind.
The scientist told us that colours also have smell.Can you smell the colour Of course not.Then why did the scientist say so That is because every colour stands for (代表) a kind of light with a certain wavelength(波长).It reaches our brain through sense organs (器官).
According to this discovery,scientists say that people accept the colours they like,and refuse the colours they hate.So your body and mind will be healthy with the colours you like.Or you’ll be nervous or even get ill.For example,you like blue and hate red.If you stay in a room with red windows,wallpaper and furniture for two hours,you’ll feel you have been there for four hours.But if the room is blue,you’ll feel you have been there for only an hour.And,if a person walks out of a blue room and into a red room,his temperature will rise.That means our body temperature will change with different colours.
28.From the experiment,we know that .
A.the two boxes have the same weight
B.colours can change the weight of an object
C.the red paper is heavier than the white paper
D.colours have different weights in people’s mind
29.From the fourth paragraph,we can infer .
A.the smell of colours is changeable (可变的)
B.people can sense the light from colours
C.people can smell the colours through the nose
D.all the colours have the same smell for the blind
30.Which of the following is true
A.White colour is heavier than red colour.
B.People can stay longer in red rooms than in blue rooms.
C.People may get ill if they refuse the colours they don’t like.
D.People’s body temperature will change with different colours.
31.The passage is probably .
A.a short novel
B.a news report
C.a science report
D.an advertisement
D
3-D printers are very hot today.They are being put to all kinds of uses,ranging from creating car models for movies to architectural models.However,none of these ideas are as shocking as the one suggested by Anjan Contractor,who believes that they will be the key to ending world hunger.
According to some experts,world population will increase to 10-12 billion by the end of this century.This means that food will become very expensive and possibly,even out of reach,for billions of people.
This is where 3-D printing may save the day.Anjan thinks that the only way to solve the problem will be to equip every kitchen with a 3-D printer and print out meals from tubes of powder and oil.He believes that these meals with a shelf life of over 30 years would result in less food wastage.
Most important of all,it would be easier to make food from things that we now do not consider edible(可食用的).A great example of that is the protein from meat.Most experts believe that as the population grows,the supply is not going to be enough to feed everyone.Anjan believes that we could easily get the same protein from insects.Though all this futuristic food may sound unappealing,the scientists believe that when faced with a terrible food crisis,it will be very welcomed.
While this may sound a little difficult to believe,Anjan seems to have convinced the scientists at NASA,who are looking for a solution to feeding astronauts when they go on really long missions,like the one being planned to Mars.They gave Anjan $125,000 to start building the first real 3-D printer that creates the food.
Anjan is not the only one with this idea.A group led by Professor Hod Lipson has been experimenting with this idea since 2011 and has even succeeded in printing out cube-shaped creations from powdered milk and cookies with limited sugar!

32.The passage mainly talks about .
A.whether 3-D printers will have a bright future
B.3-D printers will be used in every field in future
C.3-D printers will solve the problem of the increasing population
D.whether 3-D printers will be the key to ending world hunger
33.It can be inferred that .
A.people get unappealing futuristic cube-shaped creations
B.3-D printers can only create powdered milk and cookies
C.futuristic food that contains protein can be made by 3-D printers from insects
D.insects will be the most popular food in the future,though unappealing now
34.Which group of people are mostly in need of 3-D printers
A.The people in Africa.
B.The scientists and researchers.
C.The astronauts working in space.
D.The farmers and off-land workers.
35.Where would you be most likely to find the text
A.On a notice board.
B.In a college newspaper.
C.In an institution brochure.
D.On a high technology website.

Today,people use the Internet to shop,play games,make friends and read the news.Many young people can’t imagine life without it. 36 In fact,the Internet has been used for a much longer time than most people think.
In 1957,the United States was in the middle of the Cold War.The Soviet Union had sent up the first satellite,named Sputnik,into space.This meant the Soviets were ahead of the US in technology.Americans were afraid. 37 One of the ideas was a network that would let people across the country communicate by using computers.
38 It was first tried out in 1969.For another twenty years,it was used only by scientists who worked with the US government and by some engineers.Then,in 1990,the army of America gave the control of the Internet to the National Science Foundation. 39
The biggest change in the way that people use the Internet came in 1992.For the first time,the Internet was opened to the general public,creating what is now known as the World Wide Web. 40 Today,no one government controls the Internet and it just gets bigger and bigger.It makes our world different.
A.The network took more than ten years to develop.
B.Soon,people began finding all kinds of different things they could do on the Internet.
C.Most older people,on the other hand,think the Internet is only 10 or 15 years old.
D.People began to be fond of the Internet.
E.They didn’t know what to do.
F.The Internet then became available to colleges all over the United States and to scientists across Europe.
G.Scientists in the army of America started developing ideas for protecting the country.

On a bright,warm July afternoon,Mac Hollan,a primary school teacher was cycling from his home to Alaska with his friends.One of his friends had stopped to make a bicycle repair,but they had encouraged Mac to carry on,and they would catch up with him soon.As Mac pedaled (骑行)along alone,he thought fondly of his wife and two young daughters at home.He hoped to show them this beautiful place someday.
Then Mac heard quick and loud breathing behind him.“Man,that’s a big dog!” he thought.But when he looked to the side,he saw instantly that it wasn’t a dog at all,but a wolf,quickly catching up with him.Mac’s heart began to race.He found out his can of bear spray.With one hand on the bars,he fired the spray at the wolf.A bright red cloud enveloped the animal,and to Mac’s relief,it fell back shaking its head.But a minute later,it was by his side again.Then it attacked the back of Mac’s bike,tearing open his tent bag.He fired at the wolf a second time,and again,it fell back only to quickly restart the chase (追赶).
Mac was pedaling hard now.He waved and yelled at passing cars but was careful not to slow down.He saw a steep uphill climb before him.He knew that once he hit the hill,he’d be easily caught up and the wolf’s teeth would be tearing into his flesh.
At this moment,Paul and Becky were driving their car on their way to Alaska.They didn’t think much of it when they saw two cyclists repairing their bike on the side of the road.A bit later,they spotted what they,too,assumed was a dog running alongside a man on a bike.As they got closer,they realised that the “dog” was a wolf.Mac heard a large vehicle behind him.He pulled in front of it as the wolf was catching up fast,just a dozen yards away now.
Paragraph 1:
The car abruptly stopped in front of him.
Paragraph 2:
A few minutes later,the other two cyclists arrived.

M:Oh,honey...it’s a little hard to explain.There are things you don’t understand about science yet.
W:Oh.I thought it was because the ocean is blue.The sky is always looking at the ocean,so it should be blue,too.
M:That’s a very good idea,Ruby!That is very close to the real reason,too.The sky has a lot to do with the ocean.They’re related,in a way.Did you ever notice that they’re never exactly the same colour It’s just like you and your brother Peter.You look alike because you’re related,but you don’t look exactly the same.

W:Good idea!I always loved his English classes.He’s the reason that I started writing!
M:I’d like to read your book sometime though.How long is it I usually just read books that are less than 200 pages.Remember that book Ulysses which we read in Mr Wyatt’s class That is over 700 pages!
W:Oh yeah,that took forever to read.My book is not as thick as that.It’s probably about half that long.I won’t have an actually printed book to give you,at least in a few more months.The only things I have are computer files and my handwritten copies.
M:Can you just give me a computer file
W:Yes.I’ll do that right away.Please give me your honest opinion,after you finish reading it.It is the only way I can get better.

W:I read an interesting article the other day.It had a lot of data on how people get their news.Did you know that in the United States,only 5% of people get their news from the radio
M:That makes sense.I only listen to music on the radio.Do most people get their news from the newspaper or television instead
W:Only 1% more people get it from newspapers,and most people get it from the Internet actually.
M:Wow,really I thought that most people would prefer getting news from the television.What about other countries Are they the same
W:Well,the article speaks about a few countries.France,Germany and Italy actually have the highest rates of television news watchers.Of those studied,Japan has the most newspaper readers.
M:That is really interesting.I don’t think I know a single person our age who listens to radio news either.My grandparents and their generation are the ones who grew up with that.
W:It’s amazing how our technology has changed many things in day-to-day life.I bet in one hundred years,people will get their news from something we can’t even dream of.

W:Good morning,students.These are your morning announcements for Monday,December 10th.The midterm tests will be held this week from the 12th to the 14th.However,there have been some slight changes to the dates and the places of the exams.Last year,the English exams were on Wednesday,the math exams on Thursday,and the history exams were held on Friday.This year the teachers have agreed,after listening to students’ suggestions,to switch the dates of the math and history exams.As for the places,please check the message board in the main hall,or ask your teachers for a schedule.Tomorrow,we will have a special guest coming to visit us just before our school concert.As you know,one of our previous graduates won a gold medal in the last Olympics.He will be here to sign shirts and take pictures with students after an introduction by our P.E.teacher.Finally,the headmaster asks you to remind your parents to get here early for the concert.Although there will be enough seating in the gym,the parking lot gets full very quickly.That’s all for the announcements.Have a good week,everyone!

写作
第一节
Yesterday morning,an inspirational meeting was held in our school.Many top students in our school shared their study experience and unique learning methods,which are beneficial to those who are confused about their studies.
First,I have realised that a positive attitude plays an important role in our studies.No matter what problems we may meet,we should always try our best to find solutions with strong determination.Then,I have known many useful learning methods and will apply them to my study.Lastly,I have become more confident about myself.I strongly believe I can prove my ability through hard work.
第二节
Paragraph 1:
The car abruptly stopped in front of him. Paul and Becky got out of the car immediately to give help.But with the bare hands,they didn’t dare to fight with the wolf.However,they still approached to the wolf bravely.At the same time,the wolf also noticed them and turned its head back,shouting loudly at Paul and Becky.Mac then jumped off the bicycle and was ready to fight against the wolf.That reached deadlock.
Paragraph 2:
A few minutes later,the other two cyclists arrived.They found the dangerous situation,where three men circled the wolf.Mac’s friends also jumped off their bicycles and joined the fight with the wolf.More and more cars stopped.Some drivers took out the sticks from the cars,and some took out the knives,even the guns towards the wolf.Just at that time,the wolf might feel the threats from the people starting to withdraw.Soon,it ran away off the road and disappeared in the distance.
