From the deserts of Southern California to the forests of Alaska, the U.S. possesses an incredible diversity of nature. For most of her life, Joy Ryan never saw the landscape beyond her home state of Ohio. Then, when she was in her mid-eighties, her grandson Brad Ryan decided to take her on a journey to all of the U.S. National Parks — a mission that took eight years to complete. At the age of 93, Grandma Joy has finally seen all 63 parks, ending the monumental feat in the National Park of American Samoa.
“When I learned she had never seen the great wildernesses of America — deserts, mountains, oceans, you name it — I thought that was something that would trouble me if I didn’t take action in some way,” Brad says. This idea sparked their first trip to the Great Smoky Mountains. However, once they were on the road, Brad realized that they could visit more parks nearby, and their trips multiplied. Over the years, they managed to see all the famous sights at Yosemite, the Grand Canyon, the Redwoods, and so on.
Despite Grandma Joy’s older age, she could hike mountains and do white water rafting. Brad praises her enthusiasm for life as the key to her good health. She expresses gratitude for each new day and is always excited about the next adventure. Finally, their long journey across the U.S. ended with American Samoa. “It’s about 6,700 miles from Ohio, where we live. It’s the only U.S. National Park south of the equator. It’s a long trip, but we’re excited to go,” Brad explains. “We can enjoy the beach and the beautiful tropical paradise. But as we’ve learned from the rangers that work there, American Samoa is an island community firmly rooted in family. And I think that there’s a bit of a poetic beauty to ending it there, too.”
4. Why did Brad take his grandmother Joy to travel
A. To fulfill her wish to travel around the world.
B. To free her from the boredom of everyday life.
C. To help her explore the natural beauty of America.
D. To aid her in getting inspiration for writing poems.
5. What happened after Brad and Joy started their first trip
A. They went on to see more natural landscapes.
B. They decided to visit all the parks worldwide.
C. They attracted more people to join the later trips.
D. They stopped traveling because of Joy’s poor health.
6. What impressed Brad and Joy most about American Samoa
A. The friendly locals. B. The family bond.
C. The special culture. D. The beautiful sights.
7. Which words can best describe Joy
A. Reliable and generous. B. Ambitious and creative.
C. Courageous and diligent. D. Energetic and determined.

Fast food chains have tried for years to appeal to customers who care about their health. They have added lighter food to their menus, such as salads and yogurt. Of course, the lighter food goes with the usual burgers, fried chicken and shakes.
Menus have changed over the past three decades. According to a recent study, fast food menus are less healthy than they were 30 years ago. The study suggests the problem is getting worse. The fat, salt content and size of fast food meals are the problem. They are often the reason for the rising obesity (肥胖) rate among adults in the United States. The researchers found that the average main dish weighed more in 2016 than in 1986. It also had more calories and more sodium (钠). One expert said, “The restaurants have not done enough. The big picture is that there have been some positive changes, but they are small. Overall, the changes have gotten worse.”
The average fast food dessert had more calories in 2016. It also weighed more than the average fast food dessert thirty years earlier. Restaurants are counting on bigger sundaes and cookies to increase the amount spent on each order. For example, McDonald’s recently introduced “donut sticks” dusted with sugar. Six sticks have 280 calories. But you can also order 12 sticks for less than the cost of two single orders.
The researchers found that, over the 30 years, there were more calories in items like chips, soup, and French fries. Sodium content rose even though portion(一份) size did not grow much. When consumed together as a single meal, the study found that the average main dish and side order account for nearly 40 percent of a 2000-calory daily diet.
8. Why do fast food chains provide lighter food
A. To match the fast food. B. To attract more customers.
C. To reduce the cost of each meal. D. To improve the health of customers.
9. Why are more American adults getting fat
A. They take in more calories from fast food.
B. They have little time to exercise regularly.
C. They eat much more dessert after every meal.
D. They eat fast food more frequently than before.
10. What is the example of “donut sticks” for in paragraph 3
A Showing the way of restaurants’ making cookies.
B. Presenting the popularity of restaurants’ new food.
C. Stressing the increase in restaurants’ food varieties.
D. Explaining the intention of restaurants’ adding dessert.
11. Which one could be the best title of the text
A. Fast Food Is Still Killing Us B. Don’t Eat Any Fast Food Now
C Try to Eat More Lighter Food D. People Are Becoming Fatter and Fatter
【答案】8. B 9. A 10. D 11. A
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。研究人员发现，虽然快餐连锁店试图吸引那些关心健康的消费者，但他们的食物菜单比三十年前更不健康。
【8题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段中的“Fast food chains have tried for years to appeal to customers who care about their health. They have added lighter food to their menus, such as salads and yogurt.(多年来，快餐连锁店一直试图吸引关心自己健康的顾客。他们在菜单上增加了清淡的食物，如沙拉和酸奶)”可知，快餐连锁店提供清淡食物是为了吸引更多的顾客。故选B。
【9题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段中的“The fat, salt content and size of fast food meals are the problem. They are often the reason for the rising obesity (肥胖) rate among adults in the United States.(快餐的脂肪、盐分和份量都是问题所在。它们往往是美国成年人肥胖率上升的原因)”可知，快餐中的脂肪、盐分和份量是美国成年人肥胖率上升的原因。由此推知，由于美国成年人从快餐中摄入了更多的热量，他们变得更加肥胖。故选A。
【10题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段中的“Restaurants are counting on bigger sundaes and cookies to increase the amount spent on each order. For example, McDonald’s recently introduced ‘donut sticks’ dusted with sugar.(餐馆指望更大的圣代和饼干来增加每份订单的花费。例如，麦当劳最近推出了撒了糖的‘甜甜圈棒’。)”可知，文中首先说餐馆通过更大的圣代和饼干来增加每份订单的花费，接着提到麦当劳的“甜甜圈棒”的例子来支持这一说法。由此推知，这个例子是为了解释餐馆增加甜点的目的。故选D。
【11题详解】
主旨大意题。通读全文，尤其是第二段中的“According to a recent study, fast food menus are less healthy than they were 30 years ago.(根据最近的一项研究，快餐菜单比30年前更不健康了)”可知，本文主要讲述了快餐店的食物比过去更加不健康，这对人的健康有害。由此可知，A项“快餐仍然在杀死我们”适合作本文最佳标题。故选A。
D
How do oceans affect you If you live far from the coast, you might think they don’t. But life on this planet depends on the ocean. It covers almost three-quarters of the planet and holds 97% of Earth’s water. The phytoplankton (浮游植物) that live on the oceans’ surface produce half of the oxygen in the atmosphere. Oceans are a vital source of food and other resources and an economic engine for many communities.
For all the ocean provides us, we haven’t always been so responsible in our stewardship (管理). “The ocean was considered as a dumping ground for so long,” says Caitlyn Toropova of the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN). “There was a sense that there was no way we could harm it because it is so vast.”
But human activities are having a negative impact on many of the world’s oceans, jeopardizing marine life, habitats, and ecosystems. These threats include overfishing or destructive fishing, coastal development, pollution and water runoff, and the introduction of non-native species. Climate change is also having a big effect by causing warming seas and ocean acidification.
Realizing that something needs to be done to stem or reverse the damage has led to the creation of marine protected areas (MPAs). There are approximately 5,000 designated (指定) MPAs around the world but many more that are not officially recognized. That may sound like a lot, but less than 1% of the world’s oceans is protected. “Countries around the world have committed to protecting 10%. But even though there’s been an increase in the past ten years, at the current rate, it would take 100 years to reach that goal,” Toropova says.
12. What does paragraph 1 intend to show us
A. The human impact on ocean species.
B. The importance of oceans to humans.
C. The urgency of protecting our oceans.
D. The great success in ocean exploration.
13. What was the common view about the ocean according to Toropova
A. It was too vast to be fully explored.
B. Ocean pollution was not very serious.
C. Human activities had little effect on it.
D. It provided us with abundant resources.
14. What does the underlined word “jeopardizing” in paragraph 3 probably mean
A. Rescuing.
B. Classifying.
C. Discovering.
D. Endangering.
15. What can be inferred from Toropova’s words in the last paragraph
A. More efforts are needed to protect oceans.
B. MPAs contribute little to ocean protection.
C. People’s goals are too unrealistic to be achieved.
D. Every country has the duty to save marine wildlife.
【答案】12. B 13. C 14. D 15. A
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。介绍了海洋对于人类的重要意义，海洋面临的问题，并呼吁人们为海洋的发展做出更大的努力。
【12题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段最后四句“But life on this planet depends on the ocean. It covers almost three-quarters of the planet and holds 97 percent of Earth’s water. The phytoplankton (浮游植物) that live on the oceans’ surface produce half of the oxygen in the atmosphere. Oceans are a vital source of food and other resources and an economic engine for many communities. (但地球上的生命依赖海洋。它几乎覆盖了地球的四分之三，拥有地球上97%的水。生活在海洋表面的浮游植物产生了大气中一半的氧气。海洋是食物和其他资源的重要来源，也是许多社区的经济引擎。)”可推断，作者强调了海洋对人类的生存至关重要。故选B。
【13题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段最后两句““The ocean was considered as a dumping ground for so long,” says Caitlyn Toropova of the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN). “There was a sense that there was no way we could harm it because it is so vast.” (国际自然保护联盟的Caitlyn Toropova说：“长期以来，海洋一直被视为垃圾场。”“有一种感觉是，我们无法伤害它，因为它太大了。”)”可知，人们把认为海洋是垃圾场，是因为他们觉得海洋太大了，人们的活动影响不了海洋。故选C。
【14题详解】
词义猜测题。根据第三段首句“But human activities are having a negative impact on many of the world’s oceans, jeopardizing marine life, habitats, and ecosystems. (但人类活动正在对世界上许多海洋产生负面影响， 海洋生物、栖息地和生态系统。)”以及末句“Climate change is also having a big effect by causing warming seas and ocean acidification. (气候变化也造成了海洋变暖和海洋酸化的巨大影响。)”可知，人类的行为伤害了海洋生物。所以划线词jeopardizing为“危害，伤害”之意。故选D。
【15题详解】
推理判断题。根据末段末句““But even though there’s been an increase in the past ten years, at the current rate, it would take 100 years to reach that goal,” Toropova says. (“但是，即使在过去十年中有所增加，以目前的速度，也需要100年才能达到这个目标，”Toropova说。)”可知，她觉得目前我们所做的是远远不够的，我们仍需做出更多的努力。故选A。

阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
Digital Medicine
Could the next suggestion from your doctor be downloading an app Collectively known as digital medicine, a large number of apps in use or under development can now detect or monitor mental and physical disorders or directly administer therapies. ___16___
Many detection aids rely on mobile devices to record such features as users’ voices, locations, facial expressions, exercise and sleep; then they apply artificial intelligence to mark the possible change of a condition. Some smart watches, for instance, contain a sensor that automatically detects and warns people of a dangerous heart rate. ___17___ These wearable detection aids will not replace a doctor any time soon but can be helpful partners in stressing concerns that need follow-up. ___18___ Some are being developed to detect things such as cancerous DNA, stomach bleeds, body temperature and oxygen levels. The sensors inside your body can then send the data to apps for recording.
___19___ For the most part, those intended to diagnose or treat disorders must be proved safe and effective in clinical trials and earn regulatory approval; some may need a doctor’s permission.
Clearly, society must move into the future of digital medicine with care — ensuring that the apps go through strict testing, protect privacy and go smoothly into doctors’ work. With such protections in place, healthcare costs could be saved by marking unhealthy behaviours and helping people to make changes before diseases set in. ___20___ For researchers, the patterns that emerge will provide them with novel ideas for how best to build healthier habits and prevent diseases.
A. For doctors, applying AI to the data from these apps could help them personalize patient care.
B. These data also help doctors detect diseases and help patients change their behaviors.
C. Other similar tools can detect breathing disorders, depression and other conditions.
D. They can both help diagnose symptoms and enhance traditional medical care.
E. Detection aids can also take the form of eatable and sensor-bearing pills.
F. Digital medicine has been widely used in all aspects of life nowadays.
G. Not all healthcare apps can be used as digital medicine.

47. 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。
When I was a child growing up in the Netherlands, I often begged my mother to tell me this story about an experience her family had at the end of World War II.
During the terrible last winter of the German occupation, food was scarce in the Netherlands. People were so hungry that they began to eat small animals and many things not normally considered edible (可食用的), including tulip bulbs (郁金香球茎), which could be cooked like potatoes.
For centuries, my mother’s family had owned a highly successful tulip business, which provided jobs for many in our village. But the war shut their business down, and during the winter of hunger, my grandfather, Albert, donated all his tulip bulbs to feed the hungriest villagers. For years, Albert had been trying to grow a black tulip. By careful selection, he was very close. So he guarded these few bulbs carefully to prevent people from stealing them for food.
One day, it was announced that the war was over. But there was much destruction and the Dutch people still faced dangers. My grandfather looked at his pale, thin children and realized that the hunger could continue for a long time, so he made his decision. He seized a shovel (铁铲) and went into the garden. There he found my mother, Vivian, who was just seven years old, looking nervous. Over her shoulder, Albert saw a band of Germans coming toward them down the street. He whispered to Vivian to run inside the house and began digging for his bulbs. But it was too late. Someone had already stolen them. Angry and desperate, Albert ran toward the street screaming, “They have stolen my tulip bulbs!” Vivian, watching from the doorway, cried out and ran to stop her father. Before she could reach him, Albert stumbled and fell, badly hurting his leg.
注意：
1. 续写词数应150个左右；
2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
Fortunately, Albert recovered slowly.
_____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
It took some time for Albert to rebuild his business, starting with those few bulbs that were spared by the thieves.
_____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】Fortunately, Albert recovered slowly. With the good care from his family, he began to move around the house and regain his strength. As spring arrived, the world seemed to come back to life, urging Albert to take a trip to his garden. To his amazement and astonishment, small buds were emerging from where the tulip bulbs had been stolen. This sight inspired Albert to rebuild his business and revive the glory of his family’s tulip empire.
It took some time for Albert to rebuild his business, starting with those few bulbs that were spared by the thieves. Nevertheless, he approached the task with unwavering dedication and resilience. He carefully tended to the remaining tulips, selecting and crossbreeding them to create new varieties. With hard work and perseverance, his tulip business prospered once again, bringing joy and prosperity to his family and the entire village. The tulips became a symbol of hope and resilience, reminding everyone that even in the darkest times, seeds of hope can survive and flourish.

From the deserts of Southern California to the forests of Alaska, the U.S. possesses an incredible diversity of nature. For most of her life, Joy Ryan never saw the landscape beyond her home state of Ohio. Then, when she was in her mid-eighties, her grandson Brad Ryan decided to take her on a journey to all of the U.S. National Parks — a mission that took eight years to complete. At the age of 93, Grandma Joy has finally seen all 63 parks, ending the monumental feat in the National Park of American Samoa.
“When I learned she had never seen the great wildernesses of America — deserts, mountains, oceans, you name it — I thought that was something that would trouble me if I didn’t take action in some way,” Brad says. This idea sparked their first trip to the Great Smoky Mountains. However, once they were on the road, Brad realized that they could visit more parks nearby, and their trips multiplied. Over the years, they managed to see all the famous sights at Yosemite, the Grand Canyon, the Redwoods, and so on.
Despite Grandma Joy’s older age, she could hike mountains and do white water rafting. Brad praises her enthusiasm for life as the key to her good health. She expresses gratitude for each new day and is always excited about the next adventure. Finally, their long journey across the U.S. ended with American Samoa. “It’s about 6,700 miles from Ohio, where we live. It’s the only U.S. National Park south of the equator. It’s a long trip, but we’re excited to go,” Brad explains. “We can enjoy the beach and the beautiful tropical paradise. But as we’ve learned from the rangers that work there, American Samoa is an island community firmly rooted in family. And I think that there’s a bit of a poetic beauty to ending it there, too.”
4. Why did Brad take his grandmother Joy to travel
A. To fulfill her wish to travel around the world.
B. To free her from the boredom of everyday life.
C. To help her explore the natural beauty of America.
D. To aid her in getting inspiration for writing poems.
5. What happened after Brad and Joy started their first trip
A. They went on to see more natural landscapes.
B. They decided to visit all the parks worldwide.
C. They attracted more people to join the later trips.
D. They stopped traveling because of Joy’s poor health.
6. What impressed Brad and Joy most about American Samoa
A. The friendly locals. B. The family bond.
C. The special culture. D. The beautiful sights.
7. Which words can best describe Joy
A. Reliable and generous. B. Ambitious and creative.
C. Courageous and diligent. D. Energetic and determined.
C
Fast food chains have tried for years to appeal to customers who care about their health. They have added lighter food to their menus, such as salads and yogurt. Of course, the lighter food goes with the usual burgers, fried chicken and shakes.
Menus have changed over the past three decades. According to a recent study, fast food menus are less healthy than they were 30 years ago. The study suggests the problem is getting worse. The fat, salt content and size of fast food meals are the problem. They are often the reason for the rising obesity (肥胖) rate among adults in the United States. The researchers found that the average main dish weighed more in 2016 than in 1986. It also had more calories and more sodium (钠). One expert said, “The restaurants have not done enough. The big picture is that there have been some positive changes, but they are small. Overall, the changes have gotten worse.”
The average fast food dessert had more calories in 2016. It also weighed more than the average fast food dessert thirty years earlier. Restaurants are counting on bigger sundaes and cookies to increase the amount spent on each order. For example, McDonald’s recently introduced “donut sticks” dusted with sugar. Six sticks have 280 calories. But you can also order 12 sticks for less than the cost of two single orders.
The researchers found that, over the 30 years, there were more calories in items like chips, soup, and French fries. Sodium content rose even though portion(一份) size did not grow much. When consumed together as a single meal, the study found that the average main dish and side order account for nearly 40 percent of a 2000-calory daily diet.
8. Why do fast food chains provide lighter food
A. To match the fast food. B. To attract more customers.
C. To reduce the cost of each meal. D. To improve the health of customers.
9. Why are more American adults getting fat
A. They take in more calories from fast food.
B. They have little time to exercise regularly.
C. They eat much more dessert after every meal.
D. They eat fast food more frequently than before.
10. What is the example of “donut sticks” for in paragraph 3
A. Showing the way of restaurants’ making cookies.
B. Presenting the popularity of restaurants’ new food.
C. Stressing the increase in restaurants’ food varieties.
D. Explaining the intention of restaurants’ adding dessert.
11. Which one could be the best title of the text
A. Fast Food Is Still Killing Us B. Don’t Eat Any Fast Food Now
C. Try to Eat More Lighter Food D. People Are Becoming Fatter and Fatter
D
How do oceans affect you If you live far from the coast, you might think they don’t. But life on this planet depends on the ocean. It covers almost three-quarters of the planet and holds 97% of Earth’s water. The phytoplankton (浮游植物) that live on the oceans’ surface produce half of the oxygen in the atmosphere. Oceans are a vital source of food and other resources and an economic engine for many communities.
For all the ocean provides us, we haven’t always been so responsible in our stewardship (管理). “The ocean was considered as a dumping ground for so long,” says Caitlyn Toropova of the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN). “There was a sense that there was no way we could harm it because it is so vast.”
But human activities are having a negative impact on many of the world’s oceans, jeopardizing marine life, habitats, and ecosystems. These threats include overfishing or destructive fishing, coastal development, pollution and water runoff, and the introduction of non-native species. Climate change is also having a big effect by causing warming seas and ocean acidification.
Realizing that something needs to be done to stem or reverse the damage has led to the creation of marine protected areas (MPAs). There are approximately 5,000 designated (指定) MPAs around the world but many more that are not officially recognized. That may sound like a lot, but less than 1% of the world’s oceans is protected. “Countries around the world have committed to protecting 10%. But even though there’s been an increase in the past ten years, at the current rate, it would take 100 years to reach that goal,” Toropova says.
12. What does paragraph 1 intend to show us
A. The human impact on ocean species.

Digital Medicine
Could the next suggestion from your doctor be downloading an app Collectively known as digital medicine, a large number of apps in use or under development can now detect or monitor mental and physical disorders or directly administer therapies. ___16___
Many detection aids rely on mobile devices to record such features as users’ voices, locations, facial expressions, exercise and sleep; then they apply artificial intelligence to mark the possible change of a condition. Some smart watches, for instance, contain a sensor that automatically detects and warns people of a dangerous heart rate. ___17___ These wearable detection aids will not replace a doctor any time soon but can be helpful partners in stressing concerns that need follow-up. ___18___ Some are being developed to detect things such as cancerous DNA, stomach bleeds, body temperature and oxygen levels. The sensors inside your body can then send the data to apps for recording.
___19___ For the most part, those intended to diagnose or treat disorders must be proved safe and effective in clinical trials and earn regulatory approval; some may need a doctor’s permission.
Clearly, society must move into the future of digital medicine with care — ensuring that the apps go through strict testing, protect privacy and go smoothly into doctors’ work. With such protections in place, healthcare costs could be saved by marking unhealthy behaviours and helping people to make changes before diseases set in. ___20___ For researchers, the patterns that emerge will provide them with novel ideas for how best to build healthier habits and prevent diseases.
A. For doctors, applying AI to the data from these apps could help them personalize patient care.
B These data also help doctors detect diseases and help patients change their behaviors.
C. Other similar tools can detect breathing disorders, depression and other conditions.
D. They can both help diagnose symptoms and enhance traditional medical care.
E. Detection aids can also take the form of eatable and sensor-bearing pills.
F. Digital medicine has been widely used in all aspects of life nowadays.
G. Not all healthcare apps can be used as digital medicine.

47. 阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整短文。
When I was a child growing up in the Netherlands, I often begged my mother to tell me this story about an experience her family had at the end of World War II.
During the terrible last winter of the German occupation, food was scarce in the Netherlands. People were so hungry that they began to eat small animals and many things not normally considered edible (可食用的), including tulip bulbs (郁金香球茎), which could be cooked like potatoes.
For centuries, my mother’s family had owned a highly successful tulip business, which provided jobs for many in our village. But the war shut their business down, and during the winter of hunger, my grandfather, Albert, donated all his tulip bulbs to feed the hungriest villagers. For years, Albert had been trying to grow a black tulip. By careful selection, he was very close. So he guarded these few bulbs carefully to prevent people from stealing them for food.
One day, it was announced that the war was over. But there was much destruction and the Dutch people still faced dangers. My grandfather looked at his pale, thin children and realized that the hunger could continue for a long time, so he made his decision. He seized a shovel (铁铲) and went into the garden. There he found my mother, Vivian, who was just seven years old, looking nervous. Over her shoulder, Albert saw a band of Germans coming toward them down the street. He whispered to Vivian to run inside the house and began digging for his bulbs. But it was too late. Someone had already stolen them. Angry and desperate, Albert ran toward the street screaming, “They have stolen my tulip bulbs!” Vivian, watching from the doorway, cried out and ran to stop her father. Before she could reach him, Albert stumbled and fell, badly hurting his leg.
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。
Fortunately, Albert recovered slowly.

It took some time for Albert to rebuild his business starting with those few bulbs that were spared by the thieves.
