三、阅读单选
Nina is reading a book which described 37 endangered natural and cultural treasures in the world. The writers want the book to be a hopeful call to action. Let’s visit some of these places.
Venice
The ancient city of Venice, Italy has long been threatened (威胁) by rising sea levels because of the warm temperature. The situation is made worse by the fact that its ancient buildings, built on a body of water, are slowly sinking (下沉). When the city was founded about 1,600 years ago, the level of Adriatic Sea was almost 2 meters lower than it is today.
Mount Kilimanjaro
Mount Kilimanjaro in northeastern Tanzania, is the highest in Africa, almost 6,000 metres. The mountain supports 5 plant areas and many kinds of animals. The ice glaciers (冰川) on the mountain are disappearing very quickly. This will have a bad effect on the mountain’s ecosystems (生态系统) and on Tanzania’s travel industry. Also, a valuable record of thousands of years of weather history will also be lost if the ice melts.
Glacier National Park
In the United State, the icy blocks in Clacier National Park may soon completely disappear because of weather change. In 1850, there were about 150 glaciers. There are 26 glaciers remaining today. Scientists estimate that the glaciers will be gone by 2030. Warm temperatures are also threatening the many kinds of plants and animals that live in this mountain ecosystem.
Great Barrier Reef
The Great Barrier Reef in Australia is the largest coral reef (珊瑚礁) system in the world. Rising sea temperatures are greatly harming the reef. In some areas, healthy yellow, brown and green reefs have become white. The coral whitens when it is in warmer temperature. Sick or dying coral influences the whole ecosystem of this special underwater area. Water pollution and visits by careless swimmers and divers also threaten the reef.
26．What does the common harm to the four places above according to the text
A．Sea levels. B．Ice glaciers. C．Warm temperature. D．Water pollution.

Alexander Graham Bell was born in Scotland, in 1847.
Alexander’s grandfather, father and uncle were all public speakers. His father was also the inventor of Visible Speech, a writing system used to help the deaf learn to speak. Alexander learnt to use Visible Speech from his father. He was so good at it that he helped his father in many public demonstrations (演示).
When Alexander was about 12 years old, his mother became almost deaf. He loved his mother very much, and wanted to find a way to help her communicate better with the world. He did a lot of experiments. For example, he talked to her in a low voice close to her forehead (前额) so she would be able to understand him from the vibrations (震动) his voice made.
In 1870, the Bell family moved to Canada. Alexander, now 23, got a job at a deaf school because he wanted to help more deaf people to communicate.
Later, Alexander became a professor at Boston University. He read a book by a German physicist. A French mistranslation (错误翻译) of this book said sound could be sent over a wire. It made Bell experiment by sending sound with electricity. Bell was trying to improve a machine called the telegraph. One day, his assistant in another room moved a piece of metal. Bell heard it on the wire in another room. He realized sound could be sent and heard over a wire. This shortly led to the invention of the telephone in 1876.
30．Who taught Alexander Graham Bell to use Visible Speech
A．His father. B．His mother.
C．His grandfather. D．His grandmother.
31．When did Alexander Graham Bell’s mother become almost deaf
A．In 1847. B．In 1859.
C．In 1870. D．In 1890.
32．Why was Alexander Graham Bell encouraged to experiment with the way sound worked
A．Because his mother was deaf and he wanted to help her.
B．Because he wanted to help his father at public speaking.
C．Because he worked with deaf children.
D． Because he wanted to be a great inventor very much.

三、阅读单选
Nina is reading a book which described 37 endangered natural and cultural treasures in the world. The writers want the book to be a hopeful call to action. Let’s visit some of these places.
Venice
The ancient city of Venice, Italy has long been threatened (威胁) by rising sea levels because of the warm temperature. The situation is made worse by the fact that its ancient buildings, built on a body of water, are slowly sinking (下沉). When the city was founded about 1,600 years ago, the level of Adriatic Sea was almost 2 meters lower than it is today.
Mount Kilimanjaro
Mount Kilimanjaro in northeastern Tanzania, is the highest in Africa, almost 6,000 metres. The mountain supports 5 plant areas and many kinds of animals. The ice glaciers (冰川) on the mountain are disappearing very quickly. This will have a bad effect on the mountain’s ecosystems (生态系统) and on Tanzania’s travel industry. Also, a valuable record of thousands of years of weather history will also be lost if the ice melts.
Glacier National Park
In the United State, the icy blocks in Clacier National Park may soon completely disappear because of weather change. In 1850, there were about 150 glaciers. There are 26 glaciers remaining today. Scientists estimate that the glaciers will be gone by 2030. Warm temperatures are also threatening the many kinds of plants and animals that live in this mountain ecosystem.
Great Barrier Reef
The Great Barrier Reef in Australia is the largest coral reef (珊瑚礁) system in the world. Rising sea temperatures are greatly harming the reef. In some areas, healthy yellow, brown and green reefs have become white. The coral whitens when it is in warmer temperature. Sick or dying coral influences the whole ecosystem of this special underwater area. Water pollution and visits by careless swimmers and divers also threaten the reef.

Alexander Graham Bell was born in Scotland, in 1847.
Alexander’s grandfather, father and uncle were all public speakers. His father was also the inventor of Visible Speech, a writing system used to help the deaf learn to speak. Alexander learnt to use Visible Speech from his father. He was so good at it that he helped his father in many public demonstrations (演示).
When Alexander was about 12 years old, his mother became almost deaf. He loved his mother very much, and wanted to find a way to help her communicate better with the world. He did a lot of experiments. For example, he talked to her in a low voice close to her forehead (前额) so she would be able to understand him from the vibrations (震动) his voice made.
In 1870, the Bell family moved to Canada. Alexander, now 23, got a job at a deaf school because he wanted to help more deaf people to communicate.
Later, Alexander became a professor at Boston University. He read a book by a German physicist. A French mistranslation (错误翻译) of this book said sound could be sent over a wire. It made Bell experiment by sending sound with electricity. Bell was trying to improve a machine called the telegraph. One day, his assistant in another room moved a piece of metal.

六、多任务混合阅读
Once there were many thousands of Gourma Desert（沙漠）elephants in Mali, a country in West Africa.（A）现在有不到四百头大象.
Why did the number of the elephants drop so quickly On the one hand, the elephants’ main lake, their only water source（来源） dried up. On the other hand, the land which the elephants lived on was overused by humans. ①
To protect the elephants’ living environment, the Mali Elephant Project（MEP）was started in 2007. MEP met with local people and helped（B）________ make rules of using land and water. As a result, the situation became better and there was more food, forest and grassland. ②
However, from 2012 to 2016; poaching（偷猎）and illegal（非法的）trade in the elephants increased quickly. ③ And another fifty-one elephants were killed in 2016. “If this situation goes on, all the Gourma elephants will be killed soon” said a member of MEP.
Luckily, the voice of MEP was heard. More organizations have joined together to let the local people know that（C） buying and selling elephants breaks the rules. Elephant poaching has dropped to a very low level. The local people have learned to live peacefully（D）________ the elephants, one of the wildlife treasures in the world.
50．将文中划线部分（A）译成英语。

【导语】本文主要讲述了古尔马沙漠象濒危的原因以及人们采取的措施。
50．现在：Now，句子首字母大写；有：there are，主语“四百头大象”是复数且时间状语是“现在”, 所以be动词用are；不到fewer than；四百头大象four hundred elephants。故填：Now there are fewer than four hundred elephants.
51．根据“MEP met with local people and helped...make rules of using land and water.”可知，是帮助当地人，用代词them作宾语；live with与……共处，固定搭配，此处是指当地人已经学会了与大象和平相处。故填them；with。
52．分析句子可知，此处要填写break（违反）的同义词，其同义词组是be against，buying and selling elephants（买卖大象）作主语，是单数，时态为一般现在时，所以be动词用is。故填is against。
53．根据③处后句“And another fifty-one elephants were killed in 2016.”可知，该句Eighty-three elephants were lost in 2015 alone.“仅2015年就有83头大象死亡”。放在③处符合语境。故填③。

Today I will tell you two ancient Greek stories.
Archimedes and the golden crown
One day in ancient Greece, King Hiero asked a crown maker to make him a golden crown. At first, he was very happy with it.
Later, however, he began to doubt that it was a real golden crown. He sent it to Archimedes and asked him to find out the truth.
‘‘This problem seems difficult to solve. What should I do ’’ thought Archimedes.
Archimedes was still（A）thinking about this problem as he filled his bath with water. When he got into the bath, some water ran over.
‘‘That’s it!’’ shouted Archimedes.
Archimedes went straight to the palace to see the king.（B）He showed the king how he solved the problem.
‘‘Look at this,” said Archimedes to King Hiero. “A crown made completely of gold displaces less water than a crown made of gold and another metal. This crown displaced more water than gold of the same weight, so I’m（C）certain that it’s not completely made of gold.”
‘‘The crown maker tricked me, didn’t he （D）________ a bad man he is!” shouted King Hiero. He then sent the crown maker to prison.
Helen at the Olympics
In ancient Greece, women were not allowed to watch the Olympics. However, Helen, a brave woman, wanted to watch her son, Rodus, run.
‘‘I’m going to see you at the Olympics tomorrow,” said Helen.
‘‘But Mum, the king will be angry,” said Rodus.
‘‘（E）别担心. I’ll think of a way,” replied Helen.
The next day, Helen dressed（F）________a soldier to attend the Olympics. She was soon caught.
‘‘Take her to prison,” said the king.

【答案】55． considering sure 56．to solve 57． What as 58．Don’t worry 59．ancient Greece
【导语】本文讲述了两个古希腊故事。
55．根据“Archimedes was still thinking about this problem as he filled his bath with water. （阿基米德一边往浴缸里注水，一边还在想这个问题。）”可知，句中think about表示“思考，考虑”，其同义词为consider；句子为过去进行时，因此动词应使用现在分词形式considering。再者根据“This crown displaced more water than gold of the same weight, so I'm certain that it's not completely made of gold.” （这顶王冠排水量比同等重量的金子还多，所以我敢肯定它不完全是金子做的。）可知，certain为形容词，表示“确定的”，其同义词为sure。故填considering；sure。
56．根据“He showed the king how he solved the problem.” （他向国王展示了他是如何解决这个问题的。）可知，句中“how he solved the problem”为宾语从句，可以替换为疑问词+不定式结构。故填to solve。
57． 根据空后“a bad man he is”以及句末的感叹号可知，本句是感叹句，根据名词man，可确定空处为what,，位于句首应大写首字母；再者根据谓语动词dressed和a soldier可知，dress as表示“装扮成”。故填What；as。
58．根据汉语提示可知，句子为祈使句。“担心”为worry，其否定形式为Don’t worry。故填Don’t worry。
59．根据“One day in ancient Greece, King Hiero asked a crown maker to make him a golden crown. （在古希腊的一天，希罗国王请一位王冠匠为他制作一顶金王冠。）以及“In ancient Greece, women were not allowed to watch the Olympics. ”（在古希腊，妇女是不允许观看奥运会的。）可知，这两个故事都发生在古希腊。故填ancient Greece。
