After the operation, Peter suffered severe pain, but insisted that he didn’t need any treatment. One evening, he found Susan, his wife, crying in the kitchen of their apartment in a rare outburst of frustration. “If you won’t help yourself, no one else can.” she said.
Peter started a list “How to Help Myself”, and on it he wrote, “Keep communicating with the doctors, even if they are dark thoughts. ”On October 20th, a few days before his 33 birthday, Peter wrote in a Facebook post, “It’s been hard to get along with having an incurable Grade 4 brain cancer; it’s been hard not to get angry and sad about it; and it’s been hard to accept that modern medicine isn’t able to fix me.” But at the same time, he wrote, “Every day I wake up not-dead is a gift.”
Peter and Susan had other lists, detailing the things that they hoped to accomplish in life, which included a trip to Wimbledon; climbing Mt. Snowdon in Wales; and a list of music wishes—from learning the Bach sonatas（秦鸣曲）and partitas（变奏曲）to performing the first violin part in a concert.
Peter started working on Bach’s six sonatas and partitas, the most difficult parts, which George Enescu, a world-famous violinist, once described as the Himalayas（喜马拉雅山）for violinists. Peter practiced every day, even if he could manage only fifteen minutes between medical treatments. As he mastered each piece, he posted his performances on Facebook. He finished on November 12th, then turned to the even more difficult Paganini caprices（随想曲），which he had often listened to in a recording by Itzhak Perlman. “It’s something I always wanted to play when I grew up, like wanting to be a great baseball player,” he said.

A. she suffered great pain from the Grade 4 brain cancer
B. Peter refused to get medical treatment after the operation
C. nobody else wanted to help them out of the situation

Even as we humans keep polluting the world. Nature somehow keeps finding a way to help correct our mistakes. First, there is a molecule（分子）that helps reduce global warming. Now, a team of Yale students may have discovered something equally amazing—plastic eating fungi（真菌）.
Pestalotiopsis microspora（微孢子）is the only known fungus to be able to survive only on plastic. The plastic is so hard that it takes thousands of years to break down on its own.
The best part is that these fungi can do the job even in an oxygenless environment, which means that it could work perfectly even at the bottom of a landfill.
The discovery was the result of an effort between three Yale students who were part of the Rainforest Expedition and Laboratory Program, allowing a selected group of students to visit Ecuador’s rainforest and seek out fungi and bacteria that live inside plants without harming them, which could hold medical or scientific promise. The samples are then brought back to the University’s lab where they do wide testing to see if they are of any practical or scientific use.
In 2008, a student named Pria Anand gathered specimens for one purpose—to find a microbe that could eat plastic. That’s when she came across the Pestalotiopsis microspora. Though she did show the unbelievable characteristics of the fungi, she was unable to get the desired results by the time she graduated, in 2010.
Luckily for her Jonathan Russell, a 2011 graduating student, picked up right where she had left off. By combining her work with research performed by another of Pria’s classmates, Jeffery Huang, he was able to separate the enzyme (酶) in the fungus that is the most effective in breaking down plastic.
Hopefully, experts will take it up from here and make the project a reality and help reduce plastic!
24. What is the main character of Pestaltiopsis microspora
A. It helps reduce global warming.
B. It needs less oxygen to produce.
C. It can break down plastic.
D. It can be buried in a landfill.
25. The underline sentence in the passage may mean ________.
A. Jonathan continued to study what Pria failed
B. Jonathan drove to pick up Pria when she got off
C. Jonathan came across Pria at an unexpected place
D. Jonathan invited Pria to go on with her research
26. What can we know from the passage
A. There are some kind of fungi that can eat plastic.
B. These fungi can only work in an oxygen environment.
C. The discovery was made by chance.
D. A group of students made the discovery that fungi can break down plastic.
27. The best title for the passage may be ________.
A. Fungi Love Plastic
B. Plastic Is Eaten by Fungi
C. Fungi Are Eaten by Plastic
D. Fungi Are Hidden in Plastic
C
It’s normal for teens to want to stay connected to friends and social circles, but in the middle of the night The Journal of Youth Studies recently published new research indicating that one in five teens from 12 to 15 regularly wake during the night to have some form of social media. Not surprisingly, the research also indicated that these social night owls were three times more likely than their friends to feel tired at school and that girls were more likely than boys to be called to office.
The blue light produced by cell phones, tablets and computers signals the brain to stay awake, so it’s easy to see why a teen might be up all night. A 2016 study in Psychological Science noted the same brain circuits（脑回路）that are activated by eating chocolate and winning money are activated when teens see large numbers of “likes” on their posts or those of their peers.
Besides not catching enough naps, by interrupting their sleep cycle, teens may never fully engage in REM sleep（快速动眼睡眠），the deepest stage of sleep that may be responsible for brain development and learning.
Considering about 72 percent of children from 6 to 17 sleep with some electronic media in their bedrooms, parents need to set boundaries sooner rather than later.
“Providing access to devices and thus to social media is a privilege that children can earn and also lose ,”Janie Feldman, a psychologist who treats sleep disorders, reminds parents that, temporarily removing privileges can have important impact so long as the means of earning back the privileges is clear. Teens and parents should discuss and agree upon terms of use, timing, and access. Teenagers are most cooperative when they agree to the rules, so including them in defining rules makes for very effective parenting.
28. What does the new research indicate about teens from 12 to15
A. Some of them rely on social media for homework.
B. Some of them share their sleep experience online.
C. Some of them often use cell phones or tablets at midnight.
D. Some of them surf online for ways to protect animals.
29. What advice does Janie Feldman give parents of teens
A. Forbid their children from using social media at night.
B. Get the children to have the right to social media with housework.
C. Never give the children access to social media if they break a rule.
D. Give back children’s media access when they correct their errors.
30. Which of the following is the best title for the passage
A. How to Win Back the Trust of Parents.
B. Sleep Disorders and Social Media.
C. REM Sleep and Brain Development.
D. The Harm of Social Media on Teens.

第三节 读后续写（满分25分）
阅读下面短文，根据所给情节进行续写，使之构成一个完整的故事。
It was the late 1930s, and things were tough. Mum had a hard time raising us on her own in our small community of New Westminster, BC. My dad had drowned in Pitt Lake, five years ago.
Looking back, I realize what Mum went through sending us kids to school. Every morning she would tuck a new piece of cardboard in our shoes, because our soles（鞋底）were worn out. When we got home, Mum would have “French toast” ready for us. Constant moving was typical for my family in those times. Rent was 25 dollars a month, but Mum couldn’t pay it, and we knew we would be evicted right after Christmas on the first of January.
Christmas was approaching, and we were entitled to a twenty-five-dollar Christmas fund from social services. The inspector came to our house, and searched it from top to bottom to be sure we didn’t have any food hidden away. When he didn’t find any, he issued the cheque to Mum. Mum said that instead of buying food, she would use the 25 dollars to pay back rent, assuring us all of a roof over our heads for a little while longer. She told us then there would be nothing for Christmas.
Unknown to Mum, I had been selling Christmas tree, shoveling snow, and doing odd jobs to earn enough money to buy a new pair of boots. Boots that weren’t patched, boots with no cardboard in the soles. I knew exactly which boots I wanted. They were ten-inch lop Genuine Pierre Paris and they had a price of 23 dollars.
Well, the big day came on the afternoon of Christmas Eve. I was excited, as I hurried up the road to the shoe store, but on the way I noticed a house with Christmas lights and decorations. It was then I realized at our house, we had no lights, no decorations, nor any money for Christmas goodies. I knew that we would have no turkey or ham for Christmas, and I felt sad.

第一节 应用文写作
One possible version:
Dear Sir or Madam,
I have read about your advertisement for a part-time Chinese teacher this summer holiday. I am interested in it, so I am writing to apply to get the position.
The reasons are as follows. First, being a native Chinese speaker, I can speak Putonghua properly and fluently. Besides, I’ve had much experience of teaching Chinese to foreigners before, and they speak highly of my way of teaching. Plus, I’m so good at English that I can communicate with foreigners in both languages. By the way, would you please tell me more about the course, such as the beginning and ending time, the number of classes every day, the pay I’ll get and so on
I’m looking forward to your early.
Yours sincerely,
Li Hua
第二节 读后续写
Paragraph 1
One possible version:
As I continued walking I began to reconsider my plan. I was feeling a strange sense of guilt. Here I was going to buy a new pair of boots while my mother was home in tears. She would be trying to explain to us why there were no presents. Across the street from the bus stop was a big grocery store. I realized that 25 dollars I had worked so hard for went a long way towards lights, decorations and a turkey. After finishing shopping, I went home.
Paragraph 2
One possible version:
With great excitement and tears in my eyes, I knocked on the door. I could hardly wait to see my mother’s face! When Mum opened the door, some of the groceries fell inside onto the floor, and she just stood there, dumbfounded. Holding back the tears, I said, Merry Christmas!” That day I got enough hugs and kisses from Mum.
