Plan on traveling around the USA this summer If you need help in arranging the trip, or want ideas about where to go and what to do, there are a number of outstanding websites that can make your American dream come true
http://byways.org The National Scenic Byways Program covers 150 memorable roads. Some are natural routes, such as Route 1 along the California coast. Others focus on history (such as Route 6) or man-made attractions (the Las Vegas Strip). For each, you are provided with a map, told the route’s length and how long is allowed, and given detailed suggestions on sights and stop-offs.
www. This is the best website for reviews of hotels in US cities and resorts. The reviews are impressively thorough, covering locations, rooms, cleanliness, food and so on. Importantly, these are not promotional photos by the hotels, but more honest and real ones taken by inspectors. Search facilities are excellent from the 243 hotels reviewed in the New York, you can narrow down what you are looking for by locations, facilities and styles, or just pick out a selection of the best.
www.101 usaholidays.co.uk This is the latest offering that features 101 holiday ideas to the USA. It's an impressively diverse selection, ranging from touring in the footsteps of Martin Luther King to a golfing break in Arizona and a cycling and wine-tasting trip in California's Napa Valley. Narrow down what you are looking for — whether by price, region, theme and who will be traveling — and then just the photos of the relevant holidays remain on view. It’s a really clever design.
www. Walt Disney World in California can make dreams come true, but the price is not affordable for the majority of people. So turn to long established , dedicated to giving big discounts on tickets, hotels and dining at Walt Disney World. The website also offers general money — saving tips, suggestions for cheap and free stuff and brief coverage of other Florida and California theme parks.

Is it okay to keep exercising when you have a cold What about the flu With winter viruses going around, it’s important to know how to alter your training if you do catch a germ or two.
“The guidelines are pretty easy,” says Dr Lorenzo Masci from the Alphington Sports Medicine Clinic. “Anything above the neck --- so if you’ve got a cold for example, a runny nose or a sore throat --- then you should probably cut down your exercise by half and do 50 percent of what you normally do.”
“If you’ve got anything below the neck, like muscle pain, joint pain or fever, you shouldn’t really exercise at all until those general symptoms settle down,” Lorenzo says. He points out that a cough would also fall into this more serious category. “For example, if anyone comes in with a fever and a runny nose, I’d tell them to stop exercising until the fever and the muscle ache settles. Then they can start their training again at 50 percent once all those symptoms settle, even if they’ve got a bit of a runny nose or a sore throat.”
“The reason we tell people to stop exercising is because if you exercise when you’re unwell it can make the illness worse and prolong it.” There is a second reason Lorenzo advises his patients to stop exercising when they have “below the neck” symptoms. In the event you have an illness which affects your heart, exercise can sometimes actually lead to death.
Lorenzo advises to take zinc (锌) and vitamin C as a way of preventing colds. But he admits that this is controversial --- some studies have shown that these supplements can improve immune function while other studies have cast doubt on the issue. The good news is that if you exercise regularly, you’re likely to improve your immune function. “If you exercise too much, it can predispose (使倾向于) you to coughs and sniffles,” he points out. This is often the case for excellent athletes who train every day, such as triathletes (铁人三项运动员). “But what we do know is that if you exercise at a moderate level, your immune system improves such that you’re probably at a lower risk of developing coughs and colds.”
41. How many guidelines does Dr Lorenzo mainly suggest on doing exercises when people catch a cold
A. One. B. Two. C. Three. D. Four.
42. How should people do exercises with a fever or a cough
A. They should probably reduce their training time by 50%.
B. They should stop exercising until they recover.
C. They should start exercising at 50% after their runny nose settles.
D. They should do half of what they normally do.
43. What is the worst result if people don’t stop exercising when they are unwell
A. Worsening the illness.
B. Prolonging the illness.
C Affecting the heart.
D. Bringing about threat to life.
44. What can be proved from the last paragraph
A. Zinc and Vitamin C can help to prevent colds.
B. The more exercises we do, the stronger our immune function will be.
C. Doing exercises regularly can help us prevent colds.
D. Excellent athletes seldom get coughs or sniffles.
45. What is this passage mainly about
A. Relationship between exercises and flu.
B. How to do exercises.
C. How to cope with flu.
D. When to do exercises.
C
Leonardo da Vinci, one of the greatest thinkers in the world, began his career as an artist. Very little is known about Leonardo's early life. He was born in 1452 in the town of Vinci. As a boy, Leonardo showed a great interest in drawing, sculpting and observing nature.
However, because Leonardo was born to parents who were not married to each other, he was barred from some studies and professions. He trained as an artist after moving to Florence with his father in the 1460s. It was an exciting time to be in Florence, one of the cultural capitals of Europe. Leonardo trained with one of the city's very successful artists, Andrea del Verrocchio. He was a painter, sculptor and gold worker. Verrocchio told his students that they needed to understand the body's bones and muscles when drawing people.
Leonardo took the teacher's advice very seriously. He spent several periods of his life studying the human body by taking apart and examining dead bodies. While training as an artist, Leonardo also learned about and improved on relatively new painting methods at the time. One was the use of perspective (透视) to show depth. A method called "sfumato" helped to create a cloudy effect to suggest distance. "Chiaroscuro" is a method using light and shade as a painterly effect.
Leonardo's first known portrait now hangs in the National Gallery in Washington, D. C. He made this painting of a young woman named Ginevra de'Benci around 1474. The woman has a pale face with dark hair. In the distance, Leonardo painted the Italian countryside.
He soon received attention for his extraordinary artistic skills. Around 1475 he was asked to draw an angel in Verrocchio's painting "Baptism of Christ." One story says that when Verrocchio saw Leonardo's addition to the painting, he was so amazed by his student's skill that he said he would never paint again.
46 Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage ______ ?
A. We can find Leonardo's work in the National Gallery.
B. Leonardo thought his teacher's advice was unreasonable.
C. "Sfumato"is a method to show depth by using light and shade.
D. "Baptism of Christ"made Leonardo known across the world.
47. The underlined word"barred"in the second paragraph probably means ________.
A. prevented B. protected C. suffered D. chosen
48. Which of the following words can be used to describe Leonardo according to the third paragraph ________ ?
A. Stubborn. B. Creative. C. Ambitious. D. Determined.
49. Which is the correct order of the things that happened to Leonardo ________?
a He finished the painting of Ginevra de'Benci.
b. He moved to Florence.
c. He finished drawing an angel in his teacher's painting.
d. He began to learn art from Andrea del Verrocchio.
e. He began to study the dead body.
A. b, c, e, d, a B. d, b, c, d, e C. b, d, e, a, c D. b, e, d, a, c
50. What can we learn from the last paragraph ______ ?
A. Verrocchio didn't like Leonardo's work.
B. Verrocchio thought Leonardo's work terrible.
C. Verrocchio thought highly of Leonardo's work.
D. Verrocchio didn't believe Leonardo could paint well.
D
As you are probably aware, the latest job markets news isn’t good: Unemployment is still more than 9 percent, and new job growth has fallen close to zero. That’s bad for the economy, of course. And it may be especially discouraging if you happen to be looking for a job or hoping to change careers right now. But it actually shouldn’t matter to you nearly as much as you think.
  That’s because job growth numbers don’t matter to job hunters as much as job turnover data. After all, existing jobs open up every day due to promotions, resignations, terminations, and retirements. (Yes, people are retiring even in this economy.) In both good times and bad, turnover creates more openings than economic growth does. Even in June of 2007, when the economy was still humming along, job growth was only 132,000, while turnover was 4.7 million!
  And as it turns out, even today — with job growth near zero — over 4 million job hunters are being hired every month.
  I don’t mean to imply that overall job growth doesn’t have an impact on one’s ability to land a job. It’s true that if total employment were higher, it would mean more jobs for all of us to choose from (and compete for). And it’s true that there are currently more people applying for each available job opening, regardless of whether it’s a new one or not.
  But what often distinguishes those who land jobs from those who don’t is their ability to stay motivated. They’re willing to do the hard work of identifying their valuable skills; be creative about where and how to look; learn how to present themselves to potential employers; and keep going, even after repeated rejections. The Bureau of Labor Statistics data shows that 2.7 million people who wanted and were available for work hadn’t looked within the last four weeks and were no longer even classified as unemployed.
  So don’t let the headlines fool you into giving up. Four million people get hired every month in the U.S. You can be one of them.
51. The author tends to believe that high unemployment rate ______
A. deprives many people of job opportunities.
B. prevents many people from changing careers.
C. should not stop people from looking for a job.
D. does not mean the U.S. economy is worsening.
52. Where do most job openings come from
A. Job growth
B. Job turnover
C. Improved economy
D. Business expansion
53. What does the author say about overall job growth
A. It doesn’t have much effect on individual job seekers.
B. It increases people’s confidence in the economy.
C. It gives a ray of hope to the unemployed.
D. It doesn’t mean greater job security for the employed.
54. What is the key to landing a job according to the author
A. Education
B. Intelligence
C. Persistence
D. Experience
55 What do we learn from the passage about the unemployment figures in the US
A. They clearly indicate how healthy the economy is.
B. They provide the public with the latest information.
C. They warn of the structural problems in the economy.
D. They exclude those who have stopped looking for a job.

My brother Joe had a passion for driving cars. Fords in particular. He was especially fond of speed. It was enough to make my mother fear that he was crazy. But she had that fear about everyone, even herself.
When Joe was just a little boy, he would often say to me, "Sister, when I am old enough to get my license and drive my own car, I will fly so fast that angels will run scared." With a big grin (咧嘴笑),he would imagine the scene.I could have told him it would never happen. No matter how old he got, he would never get a license, never drive a car. But I didn't tell him that.
Joe was born blind. He couldn't see his own face in a mirror. But he could dream like anyone. I didn't want to be the one to dim Joe's dreams. Life would do that for him, soon enough. Until then, didn't he deserve his happiness
Joe had trouble not just with his eyes, but with his legs. He was born premature(早产的)suffered from disabilities and could not walk until he was 5. That's when he got his first "car", a red Radio Flyer tricycle that he called his '49 Ford. He couldn't pedal it, so he would push it everywhere, sometimes even falling over.
Growing up is a tug of war between disappointment and surprise, between dreams and reality. By the time Joe was 12, I think he knew he would never get a license. As with the other hard facts of life, he seemed to accept it without question or bitterness, as if it were nothing more than a card drawn at random.
One hot summer day when he was 16, Joe went tapping out the driveway with his stick, finding his way to my stepfather's 49 Ford. He ran his hand along the car, felt the heat of the metal, opened the door and climbed in.
He looked good.
Under the seat, he discovered a six-pack of Budweiser(百威啤酒).And he drank all six cans. He felt inside the car, found the keys, shouted, "Hooweece!" and fired it up.
I have heard various versions of this story. They all boil down to this: the Ford's engine roared. My mother fainted(昏厥).My stepfather rushed outside.
And my brother, after a moment of pure joy, threw up all over the car. Fortunately, for everyone, the Ford didn't move an inch. But to this day, Joe still swears that when he found those keys and fired that old engine up, he heard the angels starting to flee.
41. What do we know about Joe
A. He learned to drive at school.
B. He is keen on fast-speed driving.
C. His mental development is slower than others.
D. He had a car accident when he was 5.

C. She let him dream his dream.
D She encouraged him to ride a tricycle.
43. What does the underlined sentence infer
A. Joe thought all this was fate.
B. Joe preferred to playing cards.
C. Joe accepted it with more questions or bitterness.

Priscilla Ouchida’s “energy efficient” house turned out to be a horrible dream. When she and her engineer husband married a few years ago, they built a $100,000 three-bedroom home in California. Tightly sealed to prevent air leaks, the house was equipped with small double-paned windows and several other energy-saving features. Problems began as soon as the couple moved in, however. Priscilla’s eyes burned. Her throat was constantly dry. She suffered from headaches and could hardly sleep. It was as though she had suddenly developed a strange illness.
Experts finally traced the cause of her illness. The level of formaldehyde gas in her kitchen was twice the maximum allowed by federal standards for chemical workers. The source of the gas Her new kitchen cabinets and wall-to-wall carpeting.
The Ouchidas are victims of indoor air pollution, which is not given sufficient attention partly because of the nation’s drive to save energy. The problem itself isn’t new. “The indoor environment was dirty long before energy conservation came along,” says Moschandreas, a pollution scientist at Geomet Technologies in Maryland. “Energy conservation has tended to accentuate the situation in some cases.”
The problem appears to be more troublesome in newly constructed homes rather than old ones. Back in the days when energy was cheap, home builders didn’t worry much about unsealed cracks. Because of such leaks, the air in an average home was replaced by fresh outdoor air about once an hour. As a result, the pollutants generated in most households seldom built up to dangerous levels.
46. It can be learned from the passage that the Ouchidas’ house ________.
A. is well worth the money spent on its construction
B. is almost faultless from the point of energy conservation
C. failed to meet energy conservation standards
D. was designed and constructed in a scientific way
47. What made the Ouchidas’ new house a horrible dream
A. Poor quality of the air inside. B. Poor quality of the construction.
C. Gas leakage in the kitchen. D. The newly painted walls.
48. The word “accentuate” (Para. 3) most probably means “________”.
A. relieve B. accelerate C. worsen D. improve
49. Why were cracks in old houses not a big concern
A. Because indoor cleanliness was not emphasized.
B. Because energy used to be inexpensive.
C. Because environmental protection was given top priority.
D. Because they were technically unavoidable.
50. This passage is most probably taken from an article entitled ________.
A. Energy Conservation B. House Building Crisis
C. Air Pollution Indoors D. Traps in Building Construction
D
Many intelligent people equate happiness with fun. The truth is that fun and happiness have little or nothing in common. Fun is what we experience during the act. Happiness is what we experience after an act. It is deeper, more abiding emotion.
Going to an amusement park of ball game, watching a movie or television, are fun activities that help us relax, temporarily forget our problems and maybe even laugh. But they do not bring happiness, because their positive effects end when the fun ends.
The way people cling to the belief that a fun-filled, pain free life equals happiness actually decreases their chances of ever attaining real happiness. If fun and pleasure are equated with happiness, then pain must be equated with unhappiness. But in fact, the opposite is true: more times than not, things that lead to happiness involve some pain.
As a result, many people avoid the very endeavors that are the source of true happiness. They fear the pain inevitably brought by such things as marriage, raising children, professional achievement, religious commitment, charitable work, self-improvement.
Ask a bachelor why he resists marriage even though he finds dating to be less and less satisfying. If he’s honest, he will tell you that he is afraid of making a commitment. For a commitment is in fact quite painful. The single life is filled with fun, adventure and excitement. Marriage has such movement, but they are not its most distinguishing features.
Similarly, couples who choose not to have children are deciding in favor of painless fun over painful happiness. They can dine out whenever they want, travel wherever they want and sleep as late as they want. Couples with infant children are lucky to get a whole night’s sleep or a three-day vacation. I don’t know any parents would choose the word fun to describe raising children.
But couples who decide not to have children never experience the pleasure of hugging them or tucking them into bed at night. They never know the joy of watching a child grow up or of playing with a grandchild. Difficult endeavors — writing, raising children, trying to do good in the world — will bring us more happiness than can ever be found in fun, that least permanent of things.
The moment we understand that fun does not bring happiness, we began to lead our lives differently. The effect can be, quite literally, life-transforming.
51. In the last sentence of the first paragraph the word “It” refers to ______.
A. fun B. happiness C. act D. truth
52. Fun activities include all the following except ______.
A. playing cards B. playing football C. dancing D. helping the poor
53. According to the passage, which of the following statements is true
A. Couples who have children own true happiness.
B. There are some similarities between fun and happiness
C. Couples who don’t want to have children own true happiness
D. Men who like to live a single life are the most happy ones of the world.
54. It can be concluded from the passage that happiness is ______.
A. Utopian B. ever-lasting C. temporary D. complicated
55 What is the passage mainly about
A. The ways to get happiness B. The secret of true happiness
C. Fun and its effects D. The happiness of raising children.

A
You may be surprised to learn that one of the best steps you can take to protect your health is to step outside and spend some time in the grass, dirt and water. Our ancestors enjoyed the healing power of nature, and now scientists are starting to catch up. Researchers have documented how contact with nature can decrease mental tiredness, and enhance moods, concentration and problem-solving. Just having a view of nature has been shown to improve hospital patients’ recovery and reduce illness rates. Exposure to the open air, horseback riding, hiking, camping can be helpful for a variety of health conditions in adults and children. Much of this type of research is focusing on children, and in fact an entire movement has quickly developed to connect kids with the healing power of nature.
Obesity. Rates of childhood, adult obesity and related conditions including diabetes (糖尿病) and heart disease have grown greatly in recent years, partly because of reducing the time of outdoor activities. This problem can be partly addressed by increasing the time students spend learning about nature, both in and outside the classroom. Such lessons are often more engaging to students and often lead them to become more active outside.
Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) (注意力缺失症). An exposure to ordinary natural settings in the course of common after-school and weekend activities may be widely effective in reducing attention shortness symptoms (症状) in children. Participation in green activities helps ADHD patients keep focused and complete tasks.
Stress. Access to nature, even houseplants, can help children deal with stress.
Depression and seasonal emotional disorder. Major depression requires medical treatment, but physical activity, especially those done outdoors, can help ease symptoms. Staying in the sunshine for just a few minutes can also help supply bone-building vitamin D. Experts say that simply walking in a city park can enjoy nature’s benefits.
36. According to the passage, which of the following is the most important for you to keep healthy
A. Healthy diet. B. Exercises.
C. Outdoor activities. D. No smoking.
37. The underlined word “enhance” in Paragraph 1 is closest in meaning to ______.
A. improve B. add
C. destroy D. control
38. From the first paragraph, what do we know
A. People didn’t enjoy the healing power of nature until recent years.
B. Having a view of nature is the only way to improve health conditions.
C. Outdoors activities are good for people’s health.
D. Researchers have found out what causes people’s mental tiredness and illness.
39. The effects of outdoor activities include all of the following EXCEPT ______.
A. helping people to control stress
B. helping children to increase the vitamin D level
C. helping people to reduce the symptoms of ADHD
D. helping scientists to believe the rates of adult obesity and the healing power of the open air
40. What would be the best title for the passage
A. Contact with Nature B. The Benefits of Nature to Health
C. Exposure to the Open Air D. Some Health Conditions
B
Eddie McKay, a once-forgotten pilot, is a subject of great interest to a group of history students in Canada.
It all started when Graham Broad, a professor at the University of Western Ontario, found McKay’s name in a footnote in a book about university history. McKay was included in a list of university alumni (校友) who had served during the First World War, but his name was unfamiliar to Broad, a specialist in military history. Out of curiosity, Broad spent hours at the local archives(档案馆) in a fruitless search for information on McKay. Tired and discouraged, he finally gave up. On his way out, Broad’s glance happened to fall on an exhibiting case showing some old newspapers. His eye was drawn to an old picture of a young man in a rugby uniform. As he read the words beside the picture, he experienced a thrilling realization. “After looking for him all day, there he was, staring up at me out of the exhibiting case,” said Broad. Excited by the find, Broad asked his students to continue his search. They combed old newspapers and other materials for clues. Gradually, a picture came into view.
Captain Alfred Edwin McKay joined the British Royal Flying Corps in 1916. He downed ten enemy planes, outlived his entire squadron (中队)as a WWI flyer, spent some time as a flying instructor in England, then returned to the front, where he was eventually shot down over Belgium and killed in December 1917. But there’s more to his story. “For a brief time in 1916 he was probably the most famous pilot in the world,” says Broad. “He was credited with downing Oswald Boelcke, the most famous German pilot at the time.” Yet, in a letter home, McKay refused to take credit, saying that Boelcke had actually crashed into another German plane.
McKay’s war records were destroyed during a World War II air bombing on London—an explanation for why he was all but forgotten.
But now, thanks to the efforts of Broad and his students, a marker in McKay’s memory was placed on the university grounds in November 2007. “I found my eyes filling with tears as I read the word ‘deceased’ (阵亡) next to his name,” said Corey Everrett, a student who found a picture of Mckay in his uniform. “This was such a simple example of the fact that he had been a student just like us, but instead of finishing his time at Western, he chose to fight and die for his country.”
41. What made Professor Broad continue his search for more information on McKay
A. A uniform of McKay. B. A footnote about McKay.
C. A book on McKay. D. A picture of McKay.
42. What did the students find out about McKay
A. He trained pilots for some time.
B. He lived longer than other pilots.
C. He died in the Second World War.
D. He was downed by the pilot Boelcke.
43. McKay’s flying documents were destroyed in .
A. Belgium B. Germany C. Canada D. England
44. We can learn from the last paragraph that McKay .
A. preferred fight to his study
B. went to war before graduation
C. left a picture for Corey Everrett
D. set an example for his fellow students
45. What is the text mainly about
A The research into war history.
B. The finding of a forgotten hero.
C. The pilots of the two world wars.
D. The importance of military studies.
C
At one time,computers were expected largely to remove the need for paper copies of documents because they could be stored electronically. But for all the texts that are written,stored and sent electronically, a lot of them are still ending up on paper.
It is difficult to measure the quantity of paper used as a result of the use of Internet-connected computers, although just about anyone who works in an office can tell you that when e-mail is introduced, the printers start working overtime. "I feel in my bones this revolution is causing more trees to be cut down. "says Ted Smith of the Earth Village Organization.
Perhaps the best sign of how computer and Internet use pushes up demand for paper comes from the high-tech industry itself, which sees printing as one of its most promising new markets. Several Internet companies have been set up to help small businesses print quality documents from a computer. Earlier this week, Hewlett-Packard Co. announced a plan to develop new technologies that will enable people to print even more so they can get a hard copy of a business document, a medical record or just an on-line e-mail, even if they are nowhere near a computer. As the company sees it, the more use of the Internet the greater demand for printers.
Does all this mean environmental concerns have been forgotten Some activists suggest people have been led to believe that a lot of dangers to the environment have gone away. "I guess people believe that the problem is taken care of, because of recycling, "said Kelly Quirke, director of the Rainforest Action Network in San Francisco. Yet Quirke is hopeful that high-tech may also prove helpful. He says printers that print on both sides are growing in popularity. The action group has also found acceptable paper made from materials other than wood, such as agricultural waste.

For those who make journeys across the world, the speed of travel today has turned the countries into a series of villages. Distances between them appear no greater to a modern traveler than those which once faced men as they walked from village to village. Jet planes fly people from one end of the earth to the other, allowing them a freedom of movement undreamt of a hundred years ago.
  Yet some people wonder if the revolution in travel has gone too far. A price has been paid, they say, for the conquest (征服) of time and distance. Travel is something to be enjoyed, not endured(忍受). The boat offers leisure and time enough to appreciate the ever-changing sights and sounds of a journey. A journey by train also has a special charm about it. Lakes and forests and wild, open plains sweeping past your carriage window create a grand view in which time and distance mean nothing. On board a plane, however, there is just the blank blue of the sky filling the narrow window of the airplane. The soft lighting, in-flight films and gentle music make up the only world you know, and the hours progress slowly.
Then there is the time spent being “processed” at a modern airport. People are conveyed like robots along walkways; baggage is weighed, tickets produced, examined and produced yet again before the passengers move to another waiting area. Journeys by rail and sea take longer, yes, but the hours devoted to being “processed” at departure and arrival in airports are luckily absent. No wonder, then, that the modern high-speed trains are winning back passengers from the airlines.
Man, however, is now a world traveler and cannot turn his back on the airplane. The working lives of too many people depend upon it; whole new industries have been built around its design and operation. The holiday maker, too, with limited time to spend, patiently endures the busy airports and limited space of the flight to gain those extra hours and even days, relaxing in the sun. Speed controls people’s lives; time saved, in work or play, is the important thing—or so we are told. Perhaps those first horsemen, riding free across the wild, open plains, were enjoying a better world than the one we know today. They could travel at will, and the clock was not their master.
51. What does the writer try to express in Paragraph 1
A. Travel by plane has speeded up the growth of villages.
B. The speed of modern travel has made distances relatively short.
C The freedom of movement has helped people realize their dreams.
D. Man has been fond of traveling rather than staying in one place.
52. How does the writer support the underlined statement in Paragraph 2
A. By giving instructions.
B. By analyzing cause and effect.
C. By following the order of time.
D. By giving examples..
53. According to Paragraph 3, passengers are turning back to modern high-speed trains because______.
A. they pay less for the tickets
B. they feel safer during the travel
C. they can enjoy higher speed of travel
D. they don’t have to waste time being “processed”
54. What does the last sentence of the passage mean
A. They could enjoy free and relaxing trave.
B. They needed the clock to tell the time.
C. They preferred traveling on horseback.
D. They could travel with their master.
55. What is the main idea of the passage
A. Air travel benefits people and industries.

D. The high speed of air travel is gained at a cost.
天津市耀华中学2021-2022学年高三下学期高考实战摸底测试5英语试题(解析版)
第二部分: 阅读理解
阅读下列短文,从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中,选出最佳选项。
A
For nearly a decade now, Merebeth has been a self-employed pet transport specialist. Her pet transport job was born of the financial crisis(危机)in the late 2000s. The downturn hit the real estate (房地产)firm where she had worked for ten years as an office manager. The firm went broke and left her looking for a new job. One day, while driving near her home, she saw a dog wandering on the road, clearly lost. She took it home, and her sister in Denver agreed to take it. This was a loving home for sure, but 1, 600 miles away. It didn't take long for Merebeth to decide to drive the dog there herself. It was her first road trip to her new job.
Merebeth's pet delivery service also satisfies her wanderlust. It has taken her to every state in the US except Montana, Washington and Oregon, she says proudly. If she wants to visit a new place, she will simply find a pet with transport needs there. She travels in all weathers. She has driven through 55 mph winds in Wyoming, heavy flooding and storms in Alabama and total whiteout conditions in Kansas.
This wanderlust is inherited from her father, she says. She moved their family from Canada to California when she was one year old, because he wanted them to explore a new place together. As soon as she graduated from high school she left home to live on Catalina Island off the Californian coast, away from her parents, where she enjoyed a life of sailing and off-road biking.
It turns out that pet transporting pays quite well at about $30, 000 per year before tax. She doesn't work in summer, as it would be unpleasantly hot for the animals in the car, even with air conditioning. As autumn comes, she gets restless—the same old wanderlust returning. It's a call she must heed alone, though. Merebeth says, "When I am on the road, I'm just in my own world. I've always been independent-spirited and I just feel strongly that I mush help animals. *'
36. Why did Merebeth changed her job
A. She wanted to work near her home.
B. She was tired of working in the office.
C. Her sister asked her to move to Denver.
D. Her former employer was out of business.
37. The word "wanderlust" in paragraph 2 means a desire to _________
A. make money. B. try various jobs.
C. be close to nature. D. travel to different places.
38. What can we learn about Merebeth in her new job
A. She has chances to see rare animals.
B. She works hard throughout the year.
C. She relies on herself the whole time.
D. She earns a basic and tax-free salary.
B
The United States rose to global power on the strength of its technology, and the lifeblood that technology has long been electricity. By providing long-distance communication and energy, electricity created the modem world. Yet properly understood, the age of electricity is merely the second stage in the age of steam, which began a century earlier.
"It is curious that no one has put together a history of both the steam and electric revolutions." writes Maury Klein in his book The Power Makers, Steam, Electricity, and the Men Invented Modem America. Klein, a noted historian of technology, spins a narrative so lively that at times it reads like a novel.
The story begins in the last years of the 18th century in Scotland, where Watt perfected "the machine that changed the world". Klein writes, "America did not invent the steam engine, but once they grasped its passwords they put it to more uses than anyone else. "
Meanwhile, over the course of 19th century, electricity went from mere curiosity to a basic necessity. Morse invented a code for sending messages over an electromagnetic circuit. Bell then gave the telegraph a voice. Edison perfected an incandescent bulls that brought electric light into the American home.
Most importantly, Edison realized that success depended on mass electrification, which he showed in New York City. With help from Tesla, Westinghouse's firm developed a system using alternating current, which soon became the major forms of power delivery.
To frame his story, Klein creates the character of Ned, a fictional witness to the progress brought about by the steams and electric revolutions in America during one man's lifetime. It's a technique that helps turn a long narrative into an interesting one.
39. What is Klein's understanding of the age of electricity
A. It is closely linked to the steam age.
B. It began earlier than proper thought.
C. It is a little-studied period of history.
D. It will come to an end sooner or later.
40. What can be inferred about Ned
A. He was born in New York City. B. He wrote many increasing stories,
C. He created an electricity company. D. He lived mainly in the 19th century.
41. What is the text
A. A biography. B. A book review. C. A short story. D. A science report.
C
The benefits of regular exercise are well documented but there’s a new bonus to add to the ever-growing list. New researchers found that middle-aged women who were physically fit could be nearly 90 percent less likely to develop dementia in later life, and as they did, it came on a decade later than less sporty women.
Lead researcher Dr. Helena Horder, of the University of Gothenburg in Sweden, said : "These findings are exciting because it’s possible that improving people's cardiovascular (心血管的)fitness in middle age could delay or even prevent them from developing dementia. "
For the study, 191 women with an average age of 50 took a bicycle exercise test until they were exhausted to measure their peak (最大值的) cardiovascular capacity. The average peak workload was measured at 103 watts.
A total of 40 women met the criteria for a high fitness level, or 120 watts or higher. A total of 92 women were in the medium fitness category; and 59 women were in the low fitness category, defined as a peak workload of 80 watts or less, or having their exercise tests stopped because of high blood pressure, chest pain or other cardiovascular problems.
These women were then tested for dementia six times over the following four decades. During that time, 44 of the women developed dementia. Five percent of the highly fit women developed dementia, compared to 25 percent of the women with medium fitness and 32 percent of the women with low fitness.
"However, this study does not show cause and effect between cardiovascular fitness and dementia, it only shows an association. More research is needed to see if improved fitness could have a positive effect on the risk of dementia and also to look at when during a lifetime a high fitness level is most important. " She also admitted that a relatively small number of women were studied, all of whom were form Sweden, so the results might not be applicable to other groups.
42. What is on the ever-growing list mentioned in the first paragraph
A. Positive effects of doing exercises.
B. Exercises suitable for the middle-aged.
C. Experimental studies on diseases.
D. Advantages of sporty woman over man
43. Why did the researchers ask the woman to do bicycle exercise
A. To predict their maximum heart rate.
B. To assess their cardiovascular capacity
C. To change their habits of working out
D To detect their potential health problems
44. What do we know about Dr Horder's study
A. It aimed to find a cure for dementia.
B. Data collection was a lengthy process.
C. Some participants withdrew from it.
D. The results were far from satisfactory.
45. Which of the following is the best title for the text
A. More Women Are Exercising to Prevent Dementia
B. Middle-Aged Women Need to Do More Exercise
C Fit Women Are Less Likely to Develop Dementia
D. Biking Improves Women's Cardiovascular Fitness

With large and small keyboards everywhere, neither children nor adults need to write much of anything by hand. That’s a big problem. Study after study suggests that handwriting is important for brain development — helping kids get fine motor skills and learn to express and create ideas. Yet the time devoted to teaching penmanship in most schools has shrunk to just one hour a week. Is it time to give up handwriting Have a look at the link between the brain and penmanship, and you may get the answer.
A test among students in grades 2, 4 and 6 found that they not only wrote faster by hand than by keyboard, but also created more ideas when composing essays with handwriting. And other research shows that the finger movements required to write by hand activate brain areas involved with thought, language, and short-term memory.
A recent Indiana University study had one group of children practice writing letters by hand while a second group just looked at those letters. Then, both groups of kids entered a functional MRI (核磁共振) that scanned their brains as the researchers showed them the same letters. Researchers found that the brain activity in the first group was far more advanced and “adult-like”.
Handwriting also affects other people’s way they think of adults and children. Several studies have shown that the same average essay will score much higher if written with good penmanship and much lower if written out in poor handwriting. These studies have also found that people judge the quality of a person’s ideas based on his or her handwriting. And the consequences are real: On standardized tests with handwritten sections, like the SAT, all essay that is considered hard to recognize gets a big zero.
Studies show that this isn’t only an English-language phenomenon. Chinese and Japanese youths are suffering from “character amnesia”. They can’t remember how to write characters, thanks to computers and text messaging. Some experts fear that Chinese writing and reading are so closely linked in the brain that China’s reading ability as a nation could suffer.
46. According to the passage, it can be learned that ________________.
A. many researches have been done on handwriting
B. essays can’t be composed without handwriting
C. all children write faster by keyboard than by hand
D. most schools are trying to teach more handwriting
47. What does the Indiana University study imply

49. Which of the following statements is TRUE
A. Essays written with keyboards will get lower scores.
B. The quality of your ideas depends on your handwriting.
C. Chinese and Japanese youths don’t know how to write.
D. Less handwriting may affect China’s reading ability.
50 The passage tries to tell us that __________________.

B. we shouldn’t judge people by their handwriting
C. handwriting is of great importance
D. it’s time to give up using keyboards

With an eye for style and a heart for the environment, 18-year-old Alexis Giger launched a do-it-yourself blog aimed at “reducing your environmental impact fashionably”.
The idea was sparked (激发) by the ecology unit in her biology class at Charlotte Latin School last year, she said, which taught her about issues like deforestation and habitat destruction. “I started thinking about what I could do to stop the wastefulness in my immediate community,” the fashion lover said.
The blog, ecouturieracg., aims to make reusing thrift store (旧货店) finds or last season’s pieces easy and fashionable while cutting down on the resources consumed by garment production, Alexis said. Through online research, she discovered that a simple cotton T-shirt takes more than 700 gallons of water to make.
“It made me realize that the fashion industry consumes huge amounts of natural resources as it relies on producing garments quickly and in large supply – many of the garments are only intended to be worn three or four times,” she said.
Alexis had a number of tools to help her get started. Her mom, Kimberly, taught her to sew when she was 5. Her grandmother taught her to crochet (钩边) around the same time. Alexis said she also gained technical knowledge and inspiration from her part-time job at a clothing company that creates theater wardrobes for schools and drama productions.
Prior to the blog launch, she spent several months illustrating “recycling” projects by creating photo tutorials. Though Ecouturier hasn’t been online long, she’s been getting positive feedback. “I’ve had people come up to me in the hall and say, ‘Hey, I saw your blog. I’m working on one of the projects right now,’” Alexis said.
She said she hasn’t bought a brand-new piece of clothing since last July, and her thrift store shopping has paid off with finds such as a $5 (31 yuan) dress she wore to homecoming.
“Taking an hour from Saturday afternoon to make something for yourself can really have an impact on the environment. A little change every day can really add up,” Alexis said.
56. What inspired Alexis to launch a do-it-yourself blog
A. Her talent at making handicrafts.
B. Her fascination with the fashion industry.
C. Her part-time work experiences.
D. Her growing concern for the environment after taking a biology class.
57. What is the content of the blog Alexis set up
A. It sells items made from thrift store finds.
B. It teaches people how to choose thrift store goods.
C. It encourages people to remake their clothing in a cool way.
D. It informs people of the bad effects of deforestation and habitat destruction.
58. Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the text
A. In order to promote her blog, Alexis is spending a lot of time online every day.
B. The projects on Alexis’ blog have convinced some people to try recycling clothes themselves.
C. Alexis has been dreaming of working in the fashion industry since she was a child.
D. To start the blog, Alexis learned from her mother and grandmother how to sew and crochet.

Jennifer Udler was in the middle of a 50-minute session with a patient when it started to rain. Walking and talking about anxiety and stress, she and her teenage patient got wet. But when they made it back indoors, Jennifer said, “ Hey, look at us! We’re wet, but we got through it! Now you can use that next time you have anxiety before and during an event. ” This kind of insight is key to her practice.
Jennifer, a social worker whose practice focuses on adolescents, has been a therapist (治疗师 )for 20 years. For most of that time, she practiced in a traditional office, but she noticed how easy it was for her running partners to open up about their problems. After doing some research, in 2013, Jennifer founded Positive Strides Therapy, where she conducts sessions while walking outdoors. She conducts all of her sessions outdoors and in all kinds of weather.
“When somebody asks me if I specialize in walking therapy, I say, ‘No, that’s how I practice,’ ” Udler said. “I specialize in family systems theory. Walking in the park is just where I practice. ”
Despite the lack of formal research, Jennifer believes strongly in the benefits, saying that it can be helpful. “We’ll be talking about ‘moving forward’ as we are actually moving forward on the path, building muscle memory of how they can move forward and leave the anxiety behind. ”
And outdoor walking therapy doesn’t just benefit teens. Jennifer says the adults in her practice welcome the humanizing effect of taking therapy outdoors.
What lesson did Jennifer teach her teenage patient through the rain
Rain and suffering are a part of life. B. She is ready to help the young man.
C.We can beat our difficulty after all. D. Rain can help us deal with our trouble.
62. The underlined word “insight” in Paragraph 1 probably means .
A. qualification B. foresight C. awareness D. prediction
63. How does Jennifer feel her therapy in her reply to people’s question
A. Doubtful. B. Confident. C. Unconcerned. D. Disappointed.
64. What does the underlined word “it” in Paragraph 4 refer to
The lack of formal research about the therapy. B. Building physical memory of past experience.
C.Treating her teen patients in a traditional office. D. Conducting walk — and — talk therapy for teens.
65. Why does Jennifer think her therapy will help her patients
A. Walking outdoors is similar to managing worries. B. Moving in the rain is a bit too difficult to tolerate.
C.The rain can make one excited and face the trouble. D. Running in the rain or storm will make one healthy.

Richard is a very a successful businessman.It is common for him to work hard with a non-stop.He wasn’t aware that he might wear himself out or die an early death until he overslept one morning,which was a sort of alarm.And then what happened He had a week’s leave during which time he read novels, listened to music and walked with his wife on a beach,which has enabled Richard to return to work again.
In our modern life, we have lost the rhythm between action and rest. Amazingly, within this world there is a universal but silly saying: “I am so busy.”
We say this to one another as if our tireless efforts were a talent by nature and an ability to successfully deal with stress. The busier we are, the more important we seem to ourselves and, we imagine, to others. To be unavailable to our friends and family, and to be unable to find time to relax—— this has become the model of a successful life.
Because we do not rest, we lose our way. We miss the guide telling us where to go, the food providing is with strength, the quiet giving us wisdom.
How have we allowed this to happen I believe it is this: we have forgotten the Sabbath, the day of the week—— for followers of some religions—— for rest and praying. It is a day when we are not supposed to work, a time when we devote ourselves to enjoying and celebrating what is beautiful. It is a good time to bless our children and loved ones, give thanks, share meals, walk and sleep. It is a time for us to take a rest, to put our work aside, trusting that there are larger forces at work taking care of the world.
Rest is s spiritual and biological need; however, in our strong ambition to be successful and care for our many responsibilities, we may feel terribly guilty when we take time to rest. The Sabbath gives us permission to stop work. In fact, “Remember the Sabbath” is more than simply permission to rest; it is a rule to obey and a principle to follow.
66.What’s the function of the paragraph1
A.To tell us that Richard lives a healthy life. B.To bring up the topic of the passage.
C.To give us a brief introduction of Richard D.To tell Richard is a successful businessman.
67.The “alarm” in the first paragraph refers to “_______”.
A. a signal of stress B. a warning of danger C. a sign of age D. a spread of disease
68.According to Paragraph 3, a successful person is one who is believed to _______.
A. be able to work without stress B. be more talented than other people
C. be more important than anyone else D. be busying working without time to rest
69.According to the passage during the Sabbath ,what we should do except_____.
A.Praying for our family. B.Taking a good break.
C.Only working for two hours. D.Enjoying delicious meal.
70. What is the main idea of this passage
A. We should balance work with rest.
B. The Sabbath gives us permission to rest.
C. It is silly for anyone to say “I am busy.”
D.We should be available to our family and friends.
