As evening fell, five people moved nervously around a baby elephant. All the science, all the ideas leading up to this moment, checked out. But now, it was a question of practice: Would this baby elephant like the newly developed baby formula(配方奶) Would her body react(反应)well to it
The five people, keepers at Reteti Elephant Sanctuary, northern Kenya’s only elephant orphanage (孤儿院), held one another’s hands. They hoped that she would be healthy. As baby Sera gulped down one bottle after another, they smiled with relief. And in the days that followed, the weak two-week-old put on weight and had the strength to play with the other baby elephants at the orphanage.
The keepers celebrated the breakthrough. The formula was simple and the main ingredient (成分) of the new formula was easy to get: goat(山羊)milk.
The team had been thinking about how to improve their milk recipe for a long time, says Katie Rowe, co-founder of Reteti, in the community-owned Namunyak Conservancy. The orphanage had used human baby formula since its establishment in 2016, but costs were high, cans had to be bought from foreign countries, and ingredients weren’t always natural. “I was looking at the ingredients, believing there were better choices out there,” Rowe says.
The new formula has also been a success for the Samburu community, which sells goat milk to the orphanage. Each morning, Stamen Lemajong’s family and others travel along tree-lined roads to sell more than 150 liters of milk to the orphanage. “We use the money from selling goat milk for everything-taking the kids to school, paying hospital bills,” Lemajong says. “And in times of hardship last year it has been a huge help. Then we could even buy food with it.”
41.What were the five people doing toward the evening
A.Testing a new formula. B.Treating an ill elephant.
C.Having a science lesson. D.Examining a newly born baby.
42.What do the underlined words “gulped down” in paragraph 2 mean
A.Discovered. B.Drank. C.Filled. D.Brought.
43.What is one reason why the team chose goat milk
A.It is less expensive. B.It tastes more delicious.
C.It has fresher ingredients. D.It is more popular worldwide.
44.What does Lemajong think of selling goat milk to the orphanage
A.It lets kids realize the value of hard work.
B.It brings in less money than usual.
C.It gives local people big benefits.
D.It faces a lot of challenges.
45.In which part of a newspaper can we probably find this text
A.Sports. B.Science. C.Education. D.Society.
C
There’s a whole lot of things that people fill their stomachs with. Some of them keep people alive. Some of them taste good to people. Some of them help people win pie-eating contests. Alcohol does none of those things. Why do people keep drinking it And what does it do once it gets to their stomachs
There are all kinds of alcohol molecules (分子),but the one that people most often pour down their throat is ethanol (乙醇).Ethanol is very tiny and it dissolves in water, so it gets into all sorts of places that it’s not supposed to. Alcohol heads for the digestive system. Because it dissolves in water, it can get into the water in the bloodstream. Because ethanol, to a certain extent, can pass through cell membranes (膜). It can go almost anywhere. It spreads through the muscles, and is sweated — unmetabolized (未经新陈代新的) and whole — through the skin. It gets into the heart. It even takes a walk through the brain, and this is the secret of its powers.
Alcohol depresses the nerves, and the nerves affect almost every area of the body. Enough alcohol makes people sleep, so people who become unconscious choke on their own vomit (呕吐物). Most worryingly, enough alcohol can shut down those parts of the brain just like any other parts. People become unconscious and their brains simply forget to breathe.
Alcohol is broken down in the liver. Alcohol doesn’t destroy the liver, but products that the liver breaks the alcohol into do cause damage. A glass of wine per day can not do any harm. Instead, it can prevent heart attacks or can make someone functionally young. And it is kind of nice to know that sometimes, relaxation and cheer can be bottled. All that’s needed is to take care how much alcohol is let into a person’s brain.
46.How does the author introduce the topic of the text
A.By statement. B.By question. C.By arguing. D.By explaining.
47.Why can Alcohol reach the brain
A.Because it can move through water molecules in the blood.
B.Because it is small enough to get through any narrow space.
C.Because it is so light that the bloodstream can transport it.
D.Because it is absorbed only by the cells in the stomach.
48.What’s the main idea of Paragraph 3
A.Alcohol affects the work of the nerves.
B.Alcohol has an effect on people’s breath.
C.People are drunk when their brains get drunk.
D.Drinking too much is quite dangerous.
49.From the passage, we can know ________.
A.many people like a drink when they feel relaxed
B.enough alcohol can control the brain activities
C.alcohol damage the liver indirectly
D.proper alcohol may lead to better sleep
50.What suggestion does the author give on drinking alcohol
A.Controlling the time of drinking.
B.Controlling the amount of drinking.
C.Choosing the kind of drink.
D.Choosing the place of drinking.
D
Amy Chua is the author of “Battle Hymn of the Tiger Mother.” In the book, Chua, also a professor at Yale Law School, states her child-bringing-up method learned from her parents moving here from China years ago: no sleepovers, no television, no grades lower than an A.
“We guessed her book would cause much disagreement,” Wang Feifei, editor at CITIC Publishing House, told the reporter. “We don’t take it as a traditional parenting book, largely because it involves cross-cultural conflict.” The book has been available online since Mid-January and ranked No. 80 in sales on , a Chinese version of Amazon. It is to receive wider distribution (发行) at bookstores after the Feb. 3 Chinese New Year holiday.
The book has struck a nerve with Americans, especially American mothers. An article published earlier this month in the Wall Street Journal, called Why Chinese Mothers are Better, lit a strong reaction (the article now has close to 8,000 comments and most of them are critical, many of them completely unfriendly).
And that’s just what she did on Tuesday night’s show “The Colbert Report.” The host Stephen Colbert put Chua on the spot. “People have accused you of saying that the Chinese way of raising a child is better to what Western mothers do. True or false ” he asked. “Uh… false,” Chua replied, her voice uncertain. Colbert seized the opportunity to point out Chua’s inconsistency (不一致). “So you raised your children in a worse way ” Chua made a set of defensive talking points, some of them more convincing than others. Her arguments in defense of strict parenting were “I think if you give a 5-or 8-year-old free choice, I think that’s going to be video games.” Chua thinks that anyone can be what she calls a “Chinese Mother”; all you have to do is to demand hard work, determination and discipline from your children. “I think they are fundamental American values.”
51.What is Amy Chua’s method of bringing up her children like according to the passage
A.Very open. B.Very loose.
C.Completely scientific. D.Very strict.
52.What can we infer from the second paragraph
A.The book is on sale since mid-January.
B.In February more people will buy the book.
C.The book is a traditional parenting book.
D. is a Chinese version of Amazon.
53.From the third paragraph, we will know ________.
A.American mothers admire Chinese Mothers
B.Chinese mothers are better than American mothers
C.many Americans dislike Tiger mother’s method
D.American parenting is completely different from Tiger mother’s
54.What does the underlined word “they” mean in the last paragraph
A.American values. B.Free choices for children.
C.Hard work, determination and discipline. D.Parenting methods.
55.How did Chua defend herself when questioned by Stephen Colbert
A.Explaining her parenting methods with American values.
B.Taking two children’s stories for example.
C.Talking about her own experience in raising children.
D.Proving disadvantages of video games to children.

第一节:阅读表达(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)
阅读下面短文,并根据短文内容完成下列各题。
If you are worried about things and are under a lot of pressure at work or school, you are probably not sleeping well. Worry can keep you awake, turning in bed until the early hours of the morning when you finally fall asleep. When you wake up, you don't feel fresh, but tired and worn out and unable to face a new day.
Dr. Henry Winkle, in a recent newspaper article “Stress and Sleep”, says that worry and sleep are directly related. He says, “The more we worry, the less we sleep, and the more we are unable to deal with pressure. If we can find a way to get a good night's sleep,” he adds, “we can often find the energy to deal with what's worrying us.”
So, what is a good night's sleep Research shows that the amount of sleep which people need in order to keep healthy varies a lot. Seven hours is about the average amount. Though strangely enough, sleeping longer often gives you a headache instead of making you feel more comfortable.
Dr. Winkle believes that preparing for sleeping is important. People who work late should try to give themselves a short break and do something restful before going to bed. Doing some exercise earlier in the day should help you to feel physically as well as mentally tired. A bedtime drink can also help, but not coffee or tea. “When you put the light out,” Dr. Winkle says, “pay attention to relaxing your muscles(肌肉), working slowly up from your feet, and you'll be asleep before you know it.”
56.How do you feel if you don't sleep well (within 12 words)
57.How do we feel if we sleep less according to what Dr. Winkle says in Paragraph 2 (within 5 words)
58.What is the main idea of the passage (within 5 words)
59.How long is a good night's sleep in average according to the author (within 5 words)
60.What's the advantage if you do some exercise earlier in the day (within 8 words)

All the money collected from the event will go to the A-T Childrens’ Project, a non-profit (非盈利的) organization which raises money for medical research and health centers.(这项活动是为了纪念13岁的乔希·布罗库和10岁的妹妹布鲁克·布罗库,他们都患有一种罕见的影响儿童的疾病。从这次活动中筹集的所有资金都将捐给A-T儿童项目,这是一个为医学研究和健康中心筹集资金的非营利组织)”可知,活动1的目的之一是筹集资金。故选A。
37.推理判断题。根据活动2的“Football coach Bob Ladouceur’s belief was always, ‘We don’t expect you to play perfectly. but to give a perfect effort.’(球教练鲍勃·拉杜瑟的信念是“永远”,我们不指望你演奏得完美。但要付出完美的努力)”可知,要一直付出努力,所以有助于激励青少年努力工作的活动是“A Free Movie Supported by Farmington Baptist Church”,故选D。
38.推理判断题。根据活动2“A Free Movie Supported by Farmington Baptist Church”的“It will be shown at 7: 00 pm on October on 194 Whittier Road in Farmington. The movie When the Game Stands Tall tells the true story of the De La Salle Spartans High School football team, which set 151-game winning streak (连胜) record.(它将于10月7日下午7点在法明顿惠蒂尔路194号放映。电影《当比赛高高在上》讲述了德拉萨尔斯巴达高中足球队创造151场连胜的真实故事记录)”中的“the movie”为关键词,再根据活动4 “The Fourth Annual Pumpkin Festival”的“There will be various family activities, including movies, dog shows and children’s gifts.(会有各种家庭活动,包括电影、狗狗表演和儿童礼物)”可知,如果你喜欢看电影,可以选择活动2和活动4。故选C。

【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了一只年幼的小象通过吃人工配方的奶粉最终渡过难关活下来的过程。
41.推理判断题。根据第一段“But now, it was a question of practice: Would this baby elephant like the newly developed baby formula Would her body react well to it (但是现在,这是一个实践问题:这只象宝宝喜欢新开发的配方奶么 对此,她的身体反应会变好吗)”可知,工作人员在观察小象是否喜欢新的配方奶,因此推断他们在测试新的奶粉。故选A。
42.词义猜测题。根据第二段“And in the days that followed, the weak two-week-old put on weight and had the strength to play with the other baby elephants at the orphanage.(在接下来的几天里,这个两周大的小象体重增加了,有力气和孤儿院的其他小象一起玩耍了)”可知,小象身体变得强壮,说明小象喝了这一瓶又一瓶的食物之后,身体开始成长了,所以推断划线单词的含义是“喝”,故选B。
43.推理判断题。根据第四段“The orphanage had used human baby formula since its establishment in 2016, but costs were high, cans had to be bought from foreign countries, and ingredients weren’t always natural.(这家动物收容所自2016年成立以来一直使用人类婴儿配方奶粉,但成本很高,罐装奶粉必须从国外购买,而且原料并不总是天然的)”可知,人类配方的奶粉存在价格贵,成分不是天然的这两个缺点,因此改用山羊奶,那么可以推断出使用山羊奶的原因是价格便宜,配方天然。故选A。
44.推理判断题。根据最后一段“'We use the money from selling goat milk for everything-taking the kids to school, paying hospital bills,' Lemajong says. 'And in times of hardship last year it has been a huge help. Then we could even buy food with it.'(我们把卖山羊奶赚来的钱用在一切事情上—送孩子上学,付医药费,在去年的困难时期,它提供了巨大的帮助。我们甚至可以用它来买吃的)”可知,Lemajong认为卖给收容所山羊奶,帮他们赚到了钱,改善了经济状况。故选C。
45.推理判断题。通读全文可知,本文讲述了人们使用人类婴儿配方奶粉救助一头小象的故事,因此推断应出自报纸的社会部分,不可能是运动,科学和教育。故选D。
46.B 47.A 48.D 49.C 50.B
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了酒精是如何进入人的大脑的、过度饮酒的危害以及建议大家要控制饮酒量。
46.推理判断题。根据第一段“Why do people keep drinking it And what does it do once it gets to their stomachs (为什么人们总是喝它 它到达它们的胃后会做什么 )”可推断,本文作者是通过提问的方式来介绍文章的主题。故选B。
47.推理判断题。根据第二段“Ethanol is very tiny and it dissolves in water, so it gets into all sorts of places that it’s not supposed to. Alcohol heads for the digestive system. Because it dissolves in water, it can get into the water in the bloodstream.…It even takes a walk through the brain, and this is the secret of its powers.(乙醇非常小,能溶于水,所以它会进入各种不该进入的地方。酒精会进入消化系统。因为它溶于水,所以它可以进入血液中的水。……它甚至会穿过大脑,这就是它力量的秘密。)”可推知,酒精会到达大脑是因为它可以通过血液中的水分子移动。故选A。
48.主旨大意题。根据第三段“Alcohol depresses the nerves, and the nerves affect almost every area of the body.(酒精会抑制神经,而神经会影响到身体的每一个部位。)”可知,第三段主要讲述的是酒精的危害。故选D。
49.细节理解题。根据最后一段“Alcohol doesn’t destroy the liver, but products that the liver breaks the alcohol into do cause damage.(酒精不会破坏肝脏,但肝脏将酒精分解成的产品确实会造成损害。)”可知,酒精间接损害肝脏。故选C。
50.细节理解题。根据最后一段“A glass of wine per day can not do any harm. Instead, it can prevent heart attacks or can make someone functionally young. And it is kind of nice to know that sometimes, relaxation and cheer can be bottled. All that’s needed is to take care how much alcohol is let into a person’s brain.(每天喝一杯酒不会有什么坏处。相反,它可以预防心脏病发作,或者让人变得年轻。有时候,知道放松和欢乐可以装在瓶中是一种很好的感觉。所需要做的就是注意进入大脑的酒精量。)”可知,作者建议大家控制饮酒量。故选B。
51.D 52.B 53.C 54.C 55.A
【分析】这是一篇新闻报道。文章主要介绍了蔡美儿的书《虎妈战歌》,以及这本书出版后引发的关于教育方法的讨论。
51.推理判断题。根据第一段内容“Amy Chua is the author of “Battle Hymn of the Tiger Mother.” In the book, Chua, also a professor at Yale Law School, states her child-bringing-up method learned from her parents moving here from China years ago: no sleepovers, no television, no grades lower than an A.”(蔡美儿是《虎妈战歌》的作者。在这本书中,蔡美儿也是耶鲁法学院的教授,陈述了她的孩子的抚养方法,这些方法是从多年前从中国搬到这里的她的父母那里学到的:不在外面过夜,不看电视,成绩不低于A。)可知,蔡美儿抚养孩子的方法是不允许孩子在外面过夜和看电视,考试成绩不能低于A,由此可推断出,这些方法是非常严格的。故选D项。
52.推理判断题。根据第二段关键句“It is to receive wider distribution (发行) at bookstores after the Feb. 3 Chinese New Year holiday.”(它将在2月3日农历新年假期后在书店得到更广泛的发行。)可知,《虎妈战歌》将在2月3日后在书店得到更广泛的发行,由此可推断出,二月份会有更多的人购买这本书。故选B项。
53.推理判断题。根据第三段关键句“An article published earlier this month in the Wall Street Journal, called Why Chinese Mothers are Better, lit a strong reaction (the article now has close to 8,000 comments and most of them are critical, many of them completely unfriendly).”(本月早些时候,《华尔街日报》发表了一篇题为《为什么中国母亲更好》的文章,引起了强烈反响(这篇文章现在有近8000条评论,其中大多数是批评,其中许多评论完全不友好)。)可知,大多数美国人对这本书是持批评态度的,有很多评论是不友好的,由此可推断出,许多美国人不喜欢虎妈的教育方法。故选C项。
54.词义猜测题。根据画线单词上句“Chua thinks that anyone can be what she calls a “Chinese Mother”; all you have to do is to demand hard work, determination and discipline from your children.”(蔡美儿认为任何人都可以成为她所谓的“中国母亲”;你所要做的就是要求你的孩子努力工作、有决心和守纪律。)可知,蔡美儿认为成为“中国母亲”并不难,只需要要求孩子努力工作、有决心和守纪律,由此可知,下文指的是“努力工作、有决心和守纪律是美国的基本价值观”,“they”代指上文提到的“hard work, determination and discipline”,意思是“努力工作、有决心和守纪律”。故选C项。
55.推理判断题。根据最后一段关键句“Her arguments in defense of strict parenting were “I think if you give a 5-or 8-year-old free choice, I think that’s going to be video games.” Chua thinks that anyone can be what she calls a “Chinese Mother”; all you have to do is to demand hard work, determination and discipline from your children. “I think they are fundamental American values.””(蔡美儿为她严格的育儿方法辩护的理由是:“我认为如果你给一个5岁或8岁的孩子自由选择,我认为那将是电子游戏。”蔡美儿认为任何人都可以成为她所谓的“中国妈妈”;你所要做的就是要求你的孩子努力工作、有决心和守纪律。”我认为这是美国的基本价值观。”)可知,蔡美儿在为自己辩护时指出,她所要求孩子做到的是“努力工作、有决心和守纪律”,而这正是美国的基本价值观,所以事实上任何人都可以成为她所谓的“中国妈妈”,由此可推断出,当斯蒂芬·科尔伯特质问蔡美儿时,她是通过用美国价值观解释她的育儿方法,来为自己进行辩护的。故选A项。

【分析】本文是一篇说明文。作者主要讲述了睡眠对人类的重要意义,包括帮助我们应对压力和焦虑。并给予有关睡眠时长和提升睡眠质量方面的建议。
56.考查细节理解。根据文章第一段“If you are worried about things and are under a lot of pressure at work or school, you are probably not sleeping well.(如果你感到忧心忡忡,学习或工作压力很大,那么你有可能是睡眠不好)”和“When you wake up, you don't feel fresh, but tired and worn out and unable to face a new day.(当你醒来之后,你并不是感到精神焕发,而是疲惫不堪,没有精力应对新的一天)”可知,睡眠质量不高带来的后果,就是令人劳累、精力不济且不能面对新的一天。故答案为We feel tired and worn out, unable to face a new day.
57.考查细节理解。根据文章第二段“He says, “The more we worry, the less we sleep, and the more we are unable to deal with pressure. If we can find a way to get a good night's sleep,” he adds, “we can often find the energy to deal with what's worrying us.”(他说,我们越是焦虑,睡眠越是不足,且我们就越没有能力应对压力。如果我们可以获得一晚上的充足睡眠,那么我们就经常会有精力,处理困扰我们的压力)”可知,睡眠不足会让我们更加焦虑,且精力涣散,故答案为We feel more worried. /We have less energy。
58.考查主旨大意。根据文章第一段“If you are worried about things and are under a lot of pressure at work or school, you are probably not sleeping well.(如果你感到忧心忡忡,学习或工作压力很大,那么你有可能是睡眠不好)”和第三段“If we can find a way to get a good night's sleep,” he adds, “we can often find the energy to deal with what's worrying us.”( 如果我们可以获得一晚上的充足睡眠,那么我们就经常会有精力,处理困扰我们的压力)”和第四段“Dr. Winkle believes that preparing for sleeping is important.(Winkle博士认为,为睡眠做好充足准备是非常重要的)”可知,睡眠对我们有非常重要的意义,会帮助我们应对压力和焦虑。故答案为Sleep and Your Life/Stress and Sleep/Sleep Is Important.

60.考查推理判断。根据文章倒数第一段的“Doing some exercise earlier in the day should help you to feel physically as well as mentally tired.(一天中早些时候进行一些锻炼,会帮助你感到身体和精神困乏)”可知,早些时候做一些运动,会让你的身体和精神困乏,尽快进入睡眠的状态。故答案为It makes you sleep well at night.
61.Dear Chris,
I’m glad to have received your email asking about our PE classes and sports activities. I am writing to share some details with you.
Every week, we have two PE classes, in which our school offers us opportunities to do a variety of sports. We play basketball, run for exercise, and take part in all kinds of sports competitions. Furthermore, we benefit a lot from Sunshine Sports during the 30-minute break. At school, we are having fun, and learning teamwork and sports spirit.
We senior three students are busy with our study. Therefore, we should choose our favorite sports to relax our muscles and reduce the anxiety and burden of our study. I believe good health is not only the guarantee of successful completion of studies in school, but also the necessity for hard work after graduation. Of all the sports, I like badminton best, which helps me to keep fit and build perseverance.
Looking forward to hearing from you again.
Yours,
Li Jin
