Despite Kyle Tianshi being only a 15-year-old US high schooler, he has published five sci-fi novels. His fifth book Eventide was released in July. However, this may not be his most impressive achievement as Kyle just received the “Hero Award”, a $20, 000 grand prize. It is the top honor in the California Youth Sustainability Awards. The competition aims to encourage and support young community leaders who are making a difference for sustainability in their communities by taking action for the planet.
Kyle, a sophomore from the Cambridge School in the US, received the honor for his portable invention called NEREID. The device can detect microscopic particles (粒子) in water by using a laser and microscope. These particles can be harmful to people and the environment.
Kyle came up with the idea for the invention based on his experience growing up in San Diego, California, US. People had no access to unpolluted drinking water and his parents asked him not to drink tap water. Kyle spent about $60 buying the tools needed to analyze the tap water: a laser, a microscope and a micro-computer. “It’s incredibly powerful for the price,” Kyle said. Then he used their family’s garage as his laboratory, doing research on the pollution of drinking water caused by micro-plastics.
Kyle hopes to bring to market a low-cost alternative tool for detecting micro-plastic pollution levels in drinking water. In this way, he can offer help to people who don’t have access to water filtration (过滤) systems. He has applied for a patent.
Kyle said his sister Emily, a freshman at Stanford University, inspired his interest in environmental research. She was recognized nationally for developing a water collection device. They have founded the Clearwater Innovation program to advocate for clean water through social media platforms and organize community cleanup events.
24. What do we know about Kyle
A. He is good at adapting sci-fi works.
B. He entered many novel contests.
C. He received an award for his invention.
D. He’s found microscopic particles in water.
25. What led to Kyle’s creation of NEREID
A. People’s lack of clean drinking water. B. People’s poor living conditions.
C. His desire to be a community leader. D. His family’s encouragement.
26. Which of the following best describes Kyle
A. Considerate and brave. B. Optimistic and honest.
C. Determined and humorous. D. Responsible and creative.
27. What’s the text mainly about
A. The introduction of NEREID. B. A boy’s contribution to literature.
C. The harm of polluted water. D. A US schooler’s water solution.

A Canadian University is trying a new way to help reduce students' exam-time stress: dogs.
Dalhousie University is filling a room on campus with dogs from Dec.4 through Dec.6 for students to visit and play with the animals between exams. The pet room will be open for two hours(9:00 a.m. – 11:00 a.m.) on the first two days and for five hours (9:00 a.m. – 11:00 a.m.; 1:00 p.m. – 4:00 p.m.) on the third day. The dogs will be provided by Therapeutic Paws of Canada, a non-profit organization that trains animals to help people with practical needs.
Dalhousie’s student union posted an advertisement for the pet room on its Facebook page and within 24 hours, it was shared nearly 2,000 times. Hundreds of students expressed their excitement over the pet room on the Facebook.
Athea Costello wrote, ''This is the best idea ever! ''
Michelle Presse wrote, ''Thank you! I'm so excited. I already feel less stressed now. ''
Alumni complained the pet room wasn't offered when they attended this university (this is the first time the school is offering it).
''I think it should be open to alumni. Although we have already finished the exams and graduated, we are still stressed, '' Lola Doucet wrote.
Some dog owners offered up their own pets for the students, but the student union said only trained dogs are allowed to participate.
Dogs have been helping students at a number of U.S. universities as well.
From Kent State University in Ohio to Macalester College in Minnesota, more and more dogs are around campus during exams to help students relax.
Richelle Reid, a law librarian who started Emory's pet therapy program said, ''it has had positive effects, helping them to just have a moment to clear their minds and not have to think about studies, not to have to think about books. ''
At Harvard Medical School and Yale Law School, students can ''rent'' pets for some alone time.
28. When could a student visit the pet room
A. At 11:30 a.m. on Dec. 6
B. At 8:00 a.m. on Dec. 5
C. At 3:00 p.m. on Dec. 6
D. At 3:00 p.m. on Dec. 5
29. From the comments on the blog, we can know ____.
A. someone has already felt the effects of animals
B. many students knew nothing about the new way
C. the university offered the pet room every year
D. some students complained the pet room was useless
30. The pets mainly help the students _____.
A. have a richer college life
B. prepare for the exams better
C. learn a skill for the future
D. relax from the study stress
31. Alumni (underlined in Para. 6) refer to those ____.
A. who have graduated from college
B. who will take exams in a few days
C. who love pets very much
D. who feel extremely stressed
D
A new report links eating eggs to an increased risk of heart disease. The results follow several earlier studies that found eating eggs was generally healthy. The new report combines data from six other earlier studies. It shows a 6 percent increased risk of heart disease when the average number of eggs a person eats each day increased by half an egg.
In the United States, eggs are generally one of the top sources of cholesterol (胆固醇) in a person’s diet. Individuals with higher levels of cholesterol in their diets are at increased risk for the development of heart disease later in life. The team examined data gathered from six studies that involved a total of 29,615 people. Earlier researchers had followed these people for an average of 17.5 years. At the start, the participants answered questions about the foods they ate. But they were not asked about their diets at any time after that.
Over time, there were 5,400 heart-related incidents among the group. This included 2,088 deadly and non-deadly heart disease events and 1,302 deadly and non-deadly stroke events. It also included 1,897 deadly and non-deadly heart failure events and 113 other deaths from cardiovascular (心血管的) disease.
After examining the data, Allen’s team found a link between egg consumption as reported at the start of the study and people’s risk of developing heart disease. As their egg consumption rose, so did their risk.
Eggs contain a lot of cholesterol—about 200 milligrams. That is the highest daily amount recommended under current guidelines. Less than one egg a day on average is acceptable from a nutritional standpoint. The study is observational, meaning it can only show there is a link between egg consumption and heart disease. But it cannot prove eggs are the cause of the disease. It may just be that people eating a lot of eggs are also consuming a lot of bacon.
32. What were the participants asked about at the start of the study
A. Their birthplaces. B. Their diets.
C. Their physical conditions. D. Their ages.
33. What are the statistics in paragraph 3 about
A. The number of deaths from heart disease.
B. The number of treatments for heart disease.
C. The number of different causes of heart disease.
D. The number of heart disease cases among the participants.
34. What can be inferred from the last paragraph
A. Eggs are good for everyone.
B. Eggs are the cause of heart disease.
C. Eating eggs with limits is beneficial.
D Eating eggs has nothing to do with heart disease.
35. What is the best title for the text
A. Eggs Have Great Nutritional Value
B. Eggs Will Disappear from People’s Diet
C. It Is Much Better to Increase Egg Consumption
D. Diet Containing Eggs May Be Linked to Heart Disease

Jane, a lovely girl, had a very sweet family. Although the second oldest, Jane had the least self - control, and had hard times trying to control her bad temper, which was continually getting her into trouble. Poor Jane tried desperately to be better, but her inner enemy was always ready to flame up and defeat her, and her mother was always the first to come to her rescue.
Jane had just finished the draft of her first book, which was regarded as a pride of the whole family, expecting it was good enough to print. To celebrate this big event, Jane and the other two sisters planned to go to the theatre to see The Seven Castles. They didn't want to take Amy, the youngest, with them. Seeing that they were leaving, Amy begged them not to leave her alone and even offered to buy her own ticket herself, but in vain. “You can't sit with us, for our seats are reserved, and you mustn't sit alone, and that will spoil our pleasure,” scolded Jane, crosser than ever. Sitting on the floor, Amy began to cry.
The girls hurried down, leaving their sister crying. Amy forgot her grown - up ways, and acted like a spoilt child. She called over the banisters (扶手), in a threatening tone, “You'll be sorry for this, Jane March; see if you aren't.” “You dare! ” said Jane, slamming the door.
They had a happy time, for The Seven Castles was as brilliant and wonderful as heart could wish. But, in spite of the gorgeous princes and princesses, Jane's pleasure had a drop of bitterness in it. The fairy queen's yellow hair reminded her of Amy with wondering what her sister would do to make her “Sorry for it.”
When they got home, Jane found Amy reading in the sitting room. Jane assumed an injured air as they came in but everything was in its place. Jane decided that Amy had forgiven and forgotten her wrongs.
Jane was mistaken, for the next day she found her book missing.

At the moment, their mother came to rescue, with the book in her hand.

【答案】17. A 18. B 19. A 20. C
【解析】
【详解】【原文】M: We’re glad to have Dr Garfield to talk to us today about dreams. Let me start by asking the first question. Does everyone dream
W: It appears that everyone does. Mostly, when people say that they never dream, what they really mean is that they don’t remember their dreams or they don’t think their dreams are important. The reason behind is that they might have been made fun of as a child when they first reported their dreams or it was so frightening that they just turned off dreaming completely. The other day someone named Davis came to me and said that he used to be a great dreamer. But suddenly, he stopped having dreams. I asked him what had happened. It turned out that his brother died of a heart attack. And he never expected that such a terrible thing would happen to a young person. Generally, when there was some frightening event and to dream about it was too terrible, people prefer not to dream about it. Actually, the worst thing you can do is stop dreaming, because it means that the bad experience was too painful to even appear in dreams. As long as you’re dreaming about it and even if the dreams are frightening, your mind is working on it. My personal opinion about what dreams do is that they help us deal with our problems. We see certain patterns take place in dreams when a person is hurt deep inside, when a person is seriously ill or when a person has been really sad. If people turn off their dreams totally, it means they don’t allow themselves to even think about it.

Kyle, a sophomore from the Cambridge School in the US, received the honor for his portable invention called NEREID. The device can detect microscopic particles (粒子) in water by using a laser and microscope. These particles can be harmful to people and the environment.
Kyle came up with the idea for the invention based on his experience growing up in San Diego, California, US. People had no access to unpolluted drinking water and his parents asked him not to drink tap water. Kyle spent about $60 buying the tools needed to analyze the tap water: a laser, a microscope and a micro-computer. “It’s incredibly powerful for the price,” Kyle said. Then he used their family’s garage as his laboratory, doing research on the pollution of drinking water caused by micro-plastics.
Kyle hopes to bring to market a low-cost alternative tool for detecting micro-plastic pollution levels in drinking water. In this way, he can offer help to people who don’t have access to water filtration (过滤) systems. He has applied for a patent.
Kyle said his sister Emily, a freshman at Stanford University, inspired his interest in environmental research. She was recognized nationally for developing a water collection device. They have founded the Clearwater Innovation program to advocate for clean water through social media platforms and organize community cleanup events.

A. He is good at adapting sci-fi works.
B. He entered many novel contests.
C. He received an award for his invention.
D. He’s found microscopic particles in water.

A Canadian University is trying a new way to help reduce students' exam-time stress: dogs.
Dalhousie University is filling a room on campus with dogs from Dec.4 through Dec.6 for students to visit and play with the animals between exams. The pet room will be open for two hours(9:00 a.m. – 11:00 a.m.) on the first two days and for five hours (9:00 a.m. – 11:00 a.m.; 1:00 p.m. – 4:00 p.m.) on the third day. The dogs will be provided by Therapeutic Paws of Canada, a non-profit organization that trains animals to help people with practical needs.
Dalhousie’s student union posted an advertisement for the pet room on its Facebook page and within 24 hours, it was shared nearly 2,000 times. Hundreds of students expressed their excitement over the pet room on the Facebook.
Athea Costello wrote, ''This is the best idea ever! ''
Michelle Presse wrote, ''Thank you! I'm so excited. I already feel less stressed now. ''
Alumni complained the pet room wasn't offered when they attended this university (this is the first time the school is offering it).
''I think it should be open to alumni. Although we have already finished the exams and graduated we are still stressed, '' Lola Doucet wrote.
Some dog owners offered up their own pets for the students, but the student union said only trained dogs are allowed to participate.
Dogs have been helping students at a number of U.S. universities, as well.
From Kent State University in Ohio to Macalester College in Minnesota, more and more dogs are around campus during exams to help students relax.
Richelle Reid, a law librarian who started Emory's pet therapy program said, ''it has had positive effects, helping them to just have a moment to clear their minds and not have to think about studies, not to have to think about books. ''
At Harvard Medical School and Yale Law School, students can ''rent'' pets for some alone time.
28. When could a student visit the pet room

B. At 8:00 a.m. on Dec. 5
C. At 3:00 p.m. on Dec. 6

A new report links eating eggs to an increased risk of heart disease. The results follow several earlier studies that found eating eggs was generally healthy. The new report combines data from six other earlier studies. It shows a 6 percent increased risk of heart disease when the average number of eggs a person eats each day increased by half an egg.
In the United States, eggs are generally one of the top sources of cholesterol (胆固醇) in a person’s diet. Individuals with higher levels of cholesterol in their diets are at increased risk for the development of heart disease later in life. The team examined data gathered from six studies that involved a total of 29,615 people. Earlier researchers had followed these people for an average of 17.5 years. At the start, the participants answered questions about the foods they ate. But they were not asked about their diets at any time after that.
Over time, there were 5,400 heart-related incidents among the group. This included 2,088 deadly and non-deadly heart disease events and 1,302 deadly and non-deadly stroke events. It also included 1,897 deadly and non-deadly heart failure events and 113 other deaths from cardiovascular (心血管的) disease.
After examining the data, Allen’s team found a link between egg consumption as reported at the start of the study and people’s risk of developing heart disease. As their egg consumption rose, so did their risk.
Eggs contain a lot of cholesterol—about 200 milligrams. That is the highest daily amount recommended under current guidelines. Less than one egg a day on average is acceptable from a nutritional standpoint. The study is observational, meaning it can only show there is a link between egg consumption and heart disease. But it cannot prove eggs are the cause of the disease. It may just be that people eating a lot of eggs are also consuming a lot of bacon.
32. What were the participants asked about at the start of the study
A. Their birthplaces. B. Their diets.
C. Their physical conditions. D. Their ages.
33. What are the statistics in paragraph 3 about
A. The number of deaths from heart disease.
B. The number of treatments for heart disease.
C. The number of different causes of heart disease.
D. The number of heart disease cases among the participants.
34. What can be inferred from the last paragraph
A. Eggs are good for everyone.
B. Eggs are the cause of heart disease.
C. Eating eggs with limits is beneficial.
D. Eating eggs has nothing to do with heart disease.
35. What is the best title for the text
A. Eggs Have Great Nutritional Value
B. Eggs Will Disappear from People’s Diet
C. It Is Much Better to Increase Egg Consumption
D. Diet Containing Eggs May Be Linked to Heart Disease
【答案】32. B 33. D 34. C 35. D
【解析】
【分析】这是一篇说明文。文章一项研究认为，吃鸡蛋与心脏病风险的增加有联系，但是有科学家对此持不同观点，他们认为鸡蛋不是引起心脏病的原因。
【32题详解】
细节理解题。由第二段中的“At the start, the participants answered questions about the foods they ate. (开始时，参与者回答了关于他们所吃食物的问题)”可知，研究开始时，参与者被问到了关于“他们的饮食”的问题。故选B项。
【33题详解】
细节理解题。由第三段“Over time, there were 5,400 heart-related incidents among the group. This included 2,088 deadly and non-deadly heart disease events and 1,302 deadly and non-deadly stroke events. It also included 1,897 deadly and non-deadly heart failure events and 113 other deaths from cardiovascular (心血管的) disease. (随着时间的推移，该群体中有5400例心脏相关事件。其中包括2088起致命和非致命性心脏病事件以及1302起致命和非致命性中风事件。它还包括1897例致命和非致命性心力衰竭事件以及113例其他心血管疾病死亡事件)”可知，本段的统计数字是关于参与者中心脏疾病病例的数量。故选D项。
【34题详解】
推理判断题。由最后一段中的“Eggs contain a lot of cholesterol—about 200 milligrams. That is the highest daily amount recommended under current guidelines. Less than one egg a day on average is acceptable from a nutritional standpoint. (鸡蛋含有大量胆固醇，约200毫克。这是根据现行指导方针建议的最高每日剂量。从营养角度来看，平均每天少于一个鸡蛋是可以接受的)”可知，从营养角度来看，每天少于一个鸡蛋是有益的，换句话说，有限度地吃鸡蛋是有益的。故选C项。
【35题详解】
主旨大意题。由第一段中的“A new report links eating eggs to an increased risk of heart disease. (一份新的报告将吃鸡蛋与增加心脏病风险联系起来)”可知，第一段提出新的研究结果表明，吃鸡蛋与心脏病风险的增加有联系，接下来文章用研究参与人员“发生心脏疾病病例”统计数字举证，说明了吃鸡蛋与心脏病风险的增加有关，所以A项“含鸡蛋的饮食可能与心脏病有关”最能概括本文内容，最适合作标题。故选D项。

根据上一句“It's important to develop strong study skills in high school so that you can be prepared for any continuing education or training after you graduate. (在高中阶段培养强大的学习技能是很重要的，这样你就可以为毕业后的继续教育或培训做好准备。)”可知在高中阶段要培养强大的学习技能，结合下一句“By repeating them, you will create a new study habit and that will result in improved learning and grades.(通过重复它们，你将创造一个新的学习习惯，这将提高学习和成绩。)”可知好的学习技能需要不断地重复，结合下文介绍的几种有效的学习技能可知，此处可填入B项“为此，每天重复以下学习习惯”，适合承上启下，引出下文内容，故选B项。

【38题详解】
根据前一句“Develop a calm attitude. (培养冷静的态度。)”可知本段建议要学会冷静，结合下一句“Nobody learns anything straight away.(没有人能马上学到任何东西。)”可知学习需要耐心，不要过于着急，所以A项“对自己要冷静和耐心”符合本段主旨，适合承上启下，故选A项。

Remember that it takes time to develop a new habit, so set small achievable study goals and reward yourself for reaching then.(为达到目标设立小奖励。记住培养一个新习惯是需要时间的，所以设定一个小的可实现的学习目标，并在达到目标后奖励自己。)”可知本段建议给自己设立合理的目标，且实现目标后给自己设立奖励，这会对提升学习的动力和积极性有帮助，所以D项“这有助于保持你的动力和积极的感觉”符合文意，故选D项。
【40题详解】
根据前一句“Using thinking skills effectively.(有效运用思维技巧。)”可知本段建议我们在学习时应做到有效思考，结合下文“If you're not a good thinker, start now by developing habits that make you ask yourself questions as you read.Talk to other students who you feel are good thinkers. Ask them what it is they do when they think critically or creatively. Often times, you can pick up valuable insights to help you become a better thinker. (如果你不是一个善于思考的人，那么从现在开始养成在阅读时问自己问题的习惯吧。与其他你认为是优秀思考者的学生交谈。问问他们，当他们批判性或创造性地思考时，他们是怎么做的。很多时候，你可以获得有价值的见解，帮助你成为一个更好的思想家。)”可知优秀的思考者能够想到别人无法想象的点，具有创造性思维和批判性思维，所以G项“优秀的思考者在其他人只看到死胡同的时候能看到其它的可能性”符合文意，故选G项。

【答案】Dear Laura,
I understand your feelings. Sometimes parents can become overprotective—after all, it is their job to protect their child from harm.
Try these pieces of advice and see if they help. First, tell your parents what you think about their protective behaviour. Tell them you fully understand their love for you, but explain the side effects of their behaviour. They may change their mind after they learn about your feelings. Second, show your parents how responsible you can be. Make it clear when you need their help and when you don’t.
I hope you will find my advice helpful. I wish you all the best.
Your truly,
Li Hua

67. 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。续写的词数应为150左右。
Jane, a lovely girl, had a very sweet family. Although the second oldest, Jane had the least self - control, and had hard times trying to control her bad temper, which was continually getting her into trouble. Poor Jane tried desperately to be better, but her inner enemy was always ready to flame up and defeat her, and her mother was always the first to come to her rescue.
Jane had just finished the draft of her first book, which was regarded as a pride of the whole family, expecting it was good enough to print. To celebrate this big event, Jane and the other two sisters planned to go to the theatre to see The Seven Castles. They didn't want to take Amy, the youngest, with them. Seeing that they were leaving, Amy begged them not to leave her alone and even offered to buy her own ticket herself, but in vain. “You can't sit with us, for our seats are reserved, and you mustn't sit alone, and that will spoil our pleasure,” scolded Jane, crosser than ever. Sitting on the floor, Amy began to cry.
The girls hurried down, leaving their sister crying. Amy forgot her grown - up ways, and acted like a spoilt child. She called over the banisters (扶手), in a threatening tone, “You'll be sorry for this, Jane March; see if you aren't.” “You dare! ” said Jane, slamming the door.
They had a happy time, for The Seven Castles was as brilliant and wonderful as heart could wish. But, in spite of the gorgeous princes and princesses, Jane's pleasure had a drop of bitterness in it. The fairy queen's yellow hair reminded her of Amy with wondering what her sister would do to make her “Sorry for it.”
When they got home, Jane found Amy reading in the sitting room. Jane assumed an injured air as they came in but everything was in its place. Jane decided that Amy had forgiven and forgotten her wrongs.
Jane was mistaken, for the next day she found her book missing.

At the moment, their mother came to rescue, with the book in her hand.
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】Paragraph 1:
Jane was mistaken, for the next day she found her book missing. Jane went directly towards Amy, saying “You’ve got my book.” Amy said nothing, but her color rose. Jane cried, taking Amy by her shoulders and looking fiercely enough to frighten anyone away. Amy shouted, “I have burnt it up.” Jane turned very pale, while her eyes kindled. Her hot temper mastered her. She shook Amy till her teeth chattered in her head, crying in a passion of grief and anger.
Paragraph 2:
At the moment, their mother came to rescue, with the book in her hand. “Stop, both of you!” mother tried to calm them down. Then, she turned to Amy, “You know, it was a dreadful disaster if you should have burnt the book.” Amy felt that no one would love her till she had asked pardon. She admitted that she was just hiding it away to annoy Jane. On seeing the book, Jane was really sorry for what she had done. Jane knew that she should remember this day and resolve with all her soul that she would never know another like it. The family storm cleared up.
