My parents had been married less than two years when my dad was diagnosed with ALS. Making a decision regarding whether or not to start a family was difficult at the time, but due to their faith and positive outlook, they chose to do so. Had they not shared the same optimism, my older brother John would not be here, and I would not be writing this today. To say that I am thankful for their decision is an understatement. My dad has had a long battle with ALS and is still fighting after 26 years.
As a child, my parents did everything in their power to keep things as normal as possible for my brother and me. Unfortunately, I have very few memories of my dad when he was still able to walk because of how young I was when he lost that ability. However, I can confidently say that as a girl, my childhood felt completely normal. Our friends came over a lot. John and I were very involved in sports, and my parents were at every game.
ALS isn't just a deadly disease — it is incurable. Most patients do not live even close to 26 years like my father has been able to. ALS is also a lonely disease, for both the patients and caregivers, as they go through hardships those around them will rarely understand. My mom is his primary caregiver, and my brother and I help out as much as we can. She is a remarkable mother and wife, the backbone of our family, and none of us would be here without her.
Dad is the strongest person I know. He has overcome his physical limitations due to how strong he is mentally. Every day is a battle, and every day he fights hard. He truly believes every day is a gift. Some days are worse than others, but he would rarely ley you know. It takes a certain kind of faith, will, ambition, and strength to handle such a desperate diagnosis, and he has never faltered (退缩).
24. How does the author feel about her parents' choice of starting a family
A. Indifferent. B. Grateful. C. Angry. D. Regretful.
25. What does the author intend to stress about her parents in Paragraph 2
A. Their optimistic attitude. B. Their family values.
C. Their love for children. D. Their difficult situations.
26. Which of the following words can best describe the author's mom
A. Talented and demanding. B. Humorous and knowledgeable.
C. Determined and caring. D. Generous and strict.
27. What can be concluded from the family's story
A. Hardships and difficulties are unavoidable in life.
B. One has to learn to shoulder responsibility courageously.
C. The presence of parents is important to children's development.
D. Inner strength and family support can help overcome physical limitations.
C
Millions of us may lose sleep as most states switch to DST, Daylight Saving Time (夏令时) and put the clocks forward by one hour. The time change brings darker mornings and extends light in the evening.
Some policymakers want to make DST permanent to avoid the disturbance of constant switches. Marco Rubio, a government officer, says the formality of changing our clocks twice a year makes no sense. He points to the potential economic benefits DST brings. The key argument is that more light in the evening can stimulate people to go out and that translates into more people shopping in convenience stores for everything from water to sports drinks. Thus, there is a boom in spending.
However, the health impacts have been more complicated to figure out. DST increases evening exposure to light, which can make it harder to fall asleep at night. So in recent years, the time change has been reported to be linked to an increase in atrial fibrillation, a type of heart disease, perhaps due to the sleep disorder. Besides, evidences have linked the transition to an increase in attention problems and mood disorders.
“I am very surprised,” says Jay Chudow, a cardiologist. “It's just a one-hour change, but this shows how sensitive our bodies maybe to internal clock (生物钟) interruption.” Actually humans' internal clock is closely linked to the rising and setting of the sun. He emphasizes that restoring permanent Year-Round Standard Time (YRST) is the best option for our health and well-being, for the natural daily cycle of light and darkness is really the most powerful timing reminder that we have to match our body clock with.
So it seems there's a divide between what's likely best for our health and what may be good for the economy. Due to the economic burden and tight budget, it is not hard to guess which one will be given higher priority among policymakers this year.
28. What benefit does DST bring
A. Avoiding constant switches. B. Lengthening daytime.
C. Boosting consumption. D. Brightening the mornings.
29. What does the underlined word “transition” in Paragraph 3mean
A. Impact. B. Exposure. C. Disorder. D. Change.
30. What does Jay think of DST
A. It raises health concerns. B. It helps restore energy.
C. It is a timing reminder. D. It matches humans' body clock.
31. What will the policymakers probably do this year
A. Adopt YRST. B. Choose DST.
C. Tighten the economy. D. Increase funds on healthcare.
D
When humans are feeling lonely, we can call or video chat with friends and family who live far away. But, scientists asked, what about pet parrots New research suggests that these chatty creatures may also benefit from virtually connecting with their peers.
The idea for this study was not random: In the wild, parrots tend to live in large groups. But when kept in as pets, these social birds are often on their own. Feeling bored and lonely, they may develop psychological issues and can even turn to self-harming behaviours like pulling out their feathers.
In the study, researchers wanted to see whether 18 pet parrots could learn to make and receive video calls when they needed to help reduce loneliness. In the initial stage, the birds learnt to ring a bell and then touch a photo of another bird on a tablet screen to start a call to that bird. Calls would only work when caregivers were able to assist at both ends. In the second stage, the parrots could choose to call other birds at their own will by ringing the bell then selecting the bird they wanted to call. During a two-month study period, owners said they recorded 147 deliberate calls between birds.
“We saw some really encouraging results from the study,” said researchers. The parrots seemed to grasp that they were truly engaging with other birds onscreen and their behaviour often mirrored what we would expect from real-life interactions between these types of birds. “She came alive during the calls,” one pet owner said about her bird, according to a Northeastern University statement.
The team has previously designed similar technology such as DogPhone, which allowed pet dogs to shake a ball to communicate with their owner. “The animal Internet is already here—there are hundreds of products on the market that let pet owners interact with their animals remotely over the net, but their design is primarily focused on what humans want, not what their pets need,” Hirskyj-Douglas from the University of Glasgow added.
32. Why did researchers want to teach parrots to make video calls
A. To assess the effects of video calls on animals.
B. To train parrots' communication skills.
C. To improve the relationships between parrots.
D. To help get pet parrots out of bad moods.
33. What does paragraph 3 mainly talk about
A. The subjects of the experiment.
B. The procedures of the experiment.
C. Caregivers' role in the experiment.
D. The significance of the experiment.
34. Why is a pet owner's statement mentioned in the passage
A. To illustrate the study produced positive results.
B. To show pet parrots like video calls very much.
C. To show pet owners are satisfied with the study.
D. To indicate video calls saved his parrot's life.
35. What is the difference between this study and previous ones
A. It uses the Internet technology. B. It focuses on animals' needs.
C. It satisfies pet owners' needs. D. It enhances human-animal interaction.

阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。
It was the first day of our new grade. Everyone in the classroom was chatting happily, excited to see each other again after the long holidays. When the door slid open, all of us stopped talking and turned to look. In came our teacher Ms. Green, followed by an ordinary-looking boy.
“This boy's name is Mark,” Ms. Green announced. “He comes from another school, and he's going to be in our class from today. Make sure all of you welcome him warmly.”
The class clapped. But I didn't want to have a second look at the newcomer, for he had no outstanding qualities, considering his small figure and casual T-shirt.
“Oh, I forgot to mention one thing,” Ms. Green spoke up. “Mark actually has hearing problems. Normally he would have hearing aids on, but his old ones have just been broken. His doctor suggested that he stay at home until he got his new ones. However, Mark insisted on attending his first day of school. So if you want to communicate with him, you have to write your words on a piece of paper.”
This single speech sent the whole class into noises. Some students looked at each other with expressions of surprise. Others voiced cries of concern out of pity.
Ms. Green calmed everyone down. “I'd like someone to personally help him out throughout the day. Do I have any volunteers ”
“How can a disabled person be intelligent ” I thought to myself. I refused to raise my hand, expecting someone else would. But nobody did or said anything. Dead silence spread across the classroom.
It was by total bad luck that my eyes happened to meet Ms. Green's.
“How about you, James She asked me. “Is it okay for you to take care of Mark just for today ”
It is difficult to refuse a request by someone, especially if that person is a teacher. I sighed (叹气) and nodded slightly.
Ms. Green gestured for Mark to sit beside me and then asked us to share our holiday stories with the class.
注意：1.续写词数应为150个左右； 2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
Paragraph 1:
Immediately, the class became excited.
Paragraph 2:
Then Mark rose from his chair and walked onto the platform.

One possible version:
Dear Caroline,
I am excited and cheerful to know that you will take part in a Chinese speech competition. Here are my suggestions which may be of some help to you.
First, it is important to search for as much information as possible about the topic. The more you are familiar with the topic, the more you understand what to talk about. Besides, practise giving the speech in front of your friends and ask for their advice. Above all, staying calm and confident all the time is the key to success!
I hope that my advice could be practical. Good luck to you!
Yours.

读后续写
Immediately, the class became excited. Some could hardly wait to tell their classmates about their holiday trips, eyes shining and faces glowing with joy. Those who hadn't been anywhere bombarded them with inquiries. Enormous joy welled up in every corner of the classroom. Obviously confused about the sudden noisy situation, Mark turned to me for explanations in written words. Surprisingly, my explanation put a smile on his face. “Any volunteer to share your story ” asked Ms. Green, whose words I set down on paper for Mark.
Then Mark rose from his chair and walked onto the platform. Greeting us with a confident smile, Mark shared his story in a magnetic voice, which left me stunned. I felt more ashamed to learn that he ran a website to help children with hearing problems than guilty about stupidly thinking disabled people couldn't be intelligent. Then his voice was drowned out by a thunderous outburst of applause. Having a lump in my throat, I clapped my hands even more loudly, determined never to judge a book by its cover.

M: Last summer I went to Miami Beach, Florida, where I stayed for two weeks. My friend John and I flew to Miami from New York in three hours. It was the first time for both of us to travel by air. We sat near the window of the plane and enjoyed an unusual and beautiful view of the world. We went there because the cost was lower. We stayed at a hotel on the beach. We slept late every morning and then had breakfast outdoors near the pool. When the weather was not too hot, we went sightseeing in the morning. In the afternoon, we would go swimming in the ocean, lie in the sun, or go water-skiing. After dinner in the evening, we usually went dancing or enjoyed ourselves in the nightclubs. The two weeks went by too quickly. We were both very sorry when we had to leave.

My parents had been married less than two years when my dad was diagnosed with ALS. Making a decision regarding whether or not to start a family was difficult at the time, but due to their faith and positive outlook, they chose to do so. Had they not shared the same optimism, my older brother John would not be here, and I would not be writing this today. To say that I am thankful for their decision is an understatement. My dad has had a long battle with ALS and is still fighting after 26 years.
As a child, my parents did everything in their power to keep things as normal as possible for my brother and me. Unfortunately, I have very few memories of my dad when he was still able to walk because of how young I was when he lost that ability. However, I can confidently say that as a girl, my childhood felt completely normal. Our friends came over a lot. John and I were very involved in sports, and my parents were at every game.
ALS isn't just a deadly disease — it is incurable. Most patients do not live even close to 26 years like my father has been able to. ALS is also a lonely disease, for both the patients and caregivers, as they go through hardships those around them will rarely understand. My mom is his primary caregiver, and my brother and I help out as much as we can. She is a remarkable mother and wife, the backbone of our family, and none of us would be here without her.
Dad is the strongest person I know. He has overcome his physical limitations due to how strong he is mentally. Every day is a battle, and every day he fights hard. He truly believes every day is a gift. Some days are worse than others, but he would rarely ley you know. It takes a certain kind of faith, will, ambition, and strength to handle such a desperate diagnosis, and he has never faltered (退缩).
24. How does the author feel about her parents' choice of starting a family
A. Indifferent. B. Grateful. C. Angry. D. Regretful.
25. What does the author intend to stress about her parents in Paragraph 2
A. Their optimistic attitude. B. Their family values.
C. Their love for children. D. Their difficult situations.
26. Which of the following words can best describe the author's mom
A. Talented and demanding. B. Humorous and knowledgeable.
C. Determined and caring. D. Generous and strict.
27. What can be concluded from the family's story
A. Hardships and difficulties are unavoidable in life.
B. One has to learn to shoulder responsibility courageously.
C. The presence of parents is important to children's development.
D. Inner strength and family support can help overcome physical limitations.
C
Millions of us may lose sleep as most states switch to DST, Daylight Saving Time (夏令时) and put the clocks forward by one hour. The time change brings darker mornings and extends light in the evening.
Some policymakers want to make DST permanent to avoid the disturbance of constant switches. Marco Rubio, a government officer, says the formality of changing our clocks twice a year makes no sense. He points to the potential economic benefits DST brings. The key argument is that more light in the evening can stimulate people to go out and that translates into more people shopping in convenience stores for everything from water to sports drinks. Thus, there is a boom in spending.
However, the health impacts have been more complicated to figure out. DST increases evening exposure to light, which can make it harder to fall asleep at night. So in recent years, the time change has been reported to be linked to an increase in atrial fibrillation, a type of heart disease, perhaps due to the sleep disorder. Besides, evidences have linked the transition to an increase in attention problems and mood disorders.
“I am very surprised,” says Jay Chudow, a cardiologist. “It's just a one-hour change, but this shows how sensitive our bodies maybe to internal clock (生物钟) interruption.” Actually humans' internal clock is closely linked to the rising and setting of the sun. He emphasizes that restoring permanent Year-Round Standard Time (YRST) is the best option for our health and well-being, for the natural daily cycle of light and darkness is really the most powerful timing reminder that we have to match our body clock with.
So it seems there's a divide between what's likely best for our health and what may be good for the economy. Due to the economic burden and tight budget, it is not hard to guess which one will be given higher priority among policymakers this year.
28. What benefit does DST bring
A. Avoiding constant switches. B. Lengthening daytime.
C. Boosting consumption. D. Brightening the mornings.
29. What does the underlined word “transition” in Paragraph 3mean
A. Impact. B. Exposure. C. Disorder. D. Change.
30. What does Jay think of DST
A. It raises health concerns. B. It helps restore energy.
C. It is a timing reminder. D. It matches humans' body clock.
31. What will the policymakers probably do this year
A. Adopt YRST. B. Choose DST.
C. Tighten the economy. D. Increase funds on healthcare.
D
When humans are feeling lonely, we can call or video chat with friends and family who live far away. But, scientists asked, what about pet parrots New research suggests that these chatty creatures may also benefit from virtually connecting with their peers.
The idea for this study was not random: In the wild, parrots tend to live in large groups. But when kept in as pets, these social birds are often on their own. Feeling bored and lonely, they may develop psychological issues and can even turn to self-harming behaviours like pulling out their feathers.
In the study, researchers wanted to see whether 18 pet parrots could learn to make and receive video calls when they needed to help reduce loneliness. In the initial stage, the birds learnt to ring a bell and then touch a photo of another bird on a tablet screen to start a call to that bird. Calls would only work when caregivers were able to assist at both ends. In the second stage, the parrots could choose to call other birds at their own will by ringing the bell then selecting the bird they wanted to call. During a two-month study period, owners said they recorded 147 deliberate calls between birds.
“We saw some really encouraging results from the study,” said researchers. The parrots seemed to grasp that they were truly engaging with other birds onscreen and their behaviour often mirrored what we would expect from real-life interactions between these types of birds. “She came alive during the calls,” one pet owner said about her bird, according to a Northeastern University statement.
The team has previously designed similar technology such as DogPhone, which allowed pet dogs to shake a ball to communicate with their owner. “The animal Internet is already here—there are hundreds of products on the market that let pet owners interact with their animals remotely over the net, but their design is primarily focused on what humans want, not what their pets need,” Hirskyj-Douglas from the University of Glasgow added.
32. Why did researchers want to teach parrots to make video calls
A. To assess the effects of video calls on animals.
B. To train parrots' communication skills.
C. To improve the relationships between parrots.
D. To help get pet parrots out of bad moods.
33. What does paragraph 3 mainly talk about
A. The subjects of the experiment.
B. The procedures of the experiment.
C. Caregivers' role in the experiment.
D. The significance of the experiment.
34. Why is a pet owner's statement mentioned in the passage
A. To illustrate the study produced positive results.
B. To show pet parrots like video calls very much.
C. To show pet owners are satisfied with the study.
D. To indicate video calls saved his parrot's life.
35. What is the difference between this study and previous ones
A. It uses the Internet technology. B. It focuses on animals' needs.
C. It satisfies pet owners' needs. D. It enhances human-animal interaction.

阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。
It was the first day of our new grade. Everyone in the classroom was chatting happily, excited to see each other again after the long holidays. When the door slid open, all of us stopped talking and turned to look. In came our teacher Ms. Green, followed by an ordinary-looking boy.
“This boy's name is Mark,” Ms. Green announced. “He comes from another school, and he's going to be in our class from today. Make sure all of you welcome him warmly.”
The class clapped. But I didn't want to have a second look at the newcomer, for he had no outstanding qualities, considering his small figure and casual T-shirt.
“Oh, I forgot to mention one thing,” Ms. Green spoke up. “Mark actually has hearing problems. Normally he would have hearing aids on, but his old ones have just been broken. His doctor suggested that he stay at home until he got his new ones. However, Mark insisted on attending his first day of school. So if you want to communicate with him, you have to write your words on a piece of paper.”
This single speech sent the whole class into noises. Some students looked at each other with expressions of surprise. Others voiced cries of concern out of pity.
Ms. Green calmed everyone down. “I'd like someone to personally help him out throughout the day. Do I have any volunteers ”
“How can a disabled person be intelligent ” I thought to myself. I refused to raise my hand, expecting someone else would. But nobody did or said anything. Dead silence spread across the classroom.
It was by total bad luck that my eyes happened to meet Ms. Green's.
“How about you, James She asked me. “Is it okay for you to take care of Mark just for today ”
It is difficult to refuse a request by someone, especially if that person is a teacher. I sighed (叹气) and nodded slightly.
Ms. Green gestured for Mark to sit beside me and then asked us to share our holiday stories with the class.
注意：1.续写词数应为150个左右； 2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。

Immediately, the class became excited.

One possible version:
Dear Caroline,
I am excited and cheerful to know that you will take part in a Chinese speech competition. Here are my suggestions which may be of some help to you.
First, it is important to search for as much information as possible about the topic. The more you are familiar with the topic, the more you understand what to talk about. Besides, practise giving the speech in front of your friends and ask for their advice. Above all, staying calm and confident all the time is the key to success!
I hope that my advice could be practical. Good luck to you!
Yours.

读后续写
Immediately, the class became excited. Some could hardly wait to tell their classmates about their holiday trips, eyes shining and faces glowing with joy. Those who hadn't been anywhere bombarded them with inquiries. Enormous joy welled up in every corner of the classroom. Obviously confused about the sudden noisy situation, Mark turned to me for explanations in written words. Surprisingly, my explanation put a smile on his face. “Any volunteer to share your story ” asked Ms. Green, whose words I set down on paper for Mark.
Then Mark rose from his chair and walked onto the platform. Greeting us with a confident smile, Mark shared his story in a magnetic voice, which left me stunned. I felt more ashamed to learn that he ran a website to help children with hearing problems than guilty about stupidly thinking disabled people couldn't be intelligent. Then his voice was drowned out by a thunderous outburst of applause. Having a lump in my throat, I clapped my hands even more loudly, determined never to judge a book by its cover.

W: Dad, can I have a car
M: Sweetheart, we talked about this. Owning a car is a big responsibility. Gas is pretty expensive nowadays. You also have to maintain your car properly, and that means...
W: Yeah, I know, Dad! You've told me a thousand times! But how am I supposed to be independent if you always drive me to places
M: Well, I feel more comfortable knowing that you're safe.
W: Do you know how embarrassing it is to have your father drop you off at the mall All my friends have cars of their own already!
M: Don't all of your friends have jobs of their own, too
W: Well, yeah, I guess, but...
M: And haven't your friends kept their grades up all through university

M: Well, you show me a report card of straight A's and two paychecks from a new job, and then we'll talk about a car for you.
W: What That's so unfair!

M: Last summer I went to Miami Beach, Florida, where I stayed for two weeks. My friend John and I flew to Miami from New York in three hours. It was the first time for both of us to travel by air. We sat near the window of the plane and enjoyed an unusual and beautiful view of the world. We went there because the cost was lower. We stayed at a hotel on the beach. We slept late every morning and then had breakfast outdoors near the pool. When the weather was not too hot, we went sightseeing in the morning. In the afternoon, we would go swimming in the ocean, lie in the sun, or go water-skiing. After dinner in the evening, we usually went dancing or enjoyed ourselves in the nightclubs. The two weeks went by too quickly. We were both very sorry when we had to leave.
