Cool places to stay for cycling adventures
From its dusty eastern reaches to its river valleys and lava (熔岩) flows, Oregon attracts adventure-hungry bicyclists. And the Oregon Scenic Bikeways program makes it easy to explore. So point your wheels down one of these routes chosen to highlight a variety of landscapes, skill levels and distances.
Willamette Valley Scenic Bikeway
It's exciting: riding past fields of world-class hops, rolling along hills dotted with rows of wine grapes, leaning your bike outside a small cafe at a rural crossroads for a strong cup of coffee. The bounty of Oregon is on full display as you cycle the nation's first scenic bikeway, 134 miles down a river valley snaking between the Coast Range and Cascade Range.
Old West Scenic Bikeway
The 174-mile Old West Scenic Bikeway weaves through rangeland, along rushing rivers and toward an unending desert. And around these parts, folks are known for their put-your-feet-up hospitality (热情).
Cascade Siskiyou Scenic Bikeway
This 55-mile route starts and ends in Ashland and includes 5, 000 feet of climbing. From town, you climb through tropical grassland into deep forests. Stay in Ashland. Or turn the ride into an overnight ride and stay in a cabin in the woods.
McKenzie Pass Scenic Bikeway
This 38-mile route climbs through a forest to a 65-square-mile lava flow with 360-degree views of the Cascadian Volcanoes. The 25-mile, 4, 000-foot descent ( 坡道) to the McKenzie River has brake-burning turns through the forest. Professional tip: The McKenzie Highway is closed during the winter, but for several weeks before it opens to cars in the spring, the road is only managed for non-motorized use.

Known by the Nazis as the “White Mouse”, Nancy Wake is Australia's most celebrated World War II resistance fighter.
Hearing the name the “White Mouse”, most people would imagine that Nancy was mild, and shy, but nothing could be further from the truth. Nancy Wake was a brave and fearless woman who took part in dangerous tasks to save the lives of Allied servicemen and war refugees.
As a journalist living in France, Nancy witnessed firsthand the cruelty of the Nazis and made up her mind to fight it any way she could. When the war started, Nancy helped hundreds of people escape to neutral ( 中立的) Spain. Placed on top of the Gestapo's most-wanted list, Nancy was referred to as the “White Mouse” because of the way she slipped (溜走) through their fingers and avoided detection.
Nancy was sent to England in 1943 to join the British Special Operations Executive (SOE). She was trained in parachuting and surveillance (监视), throwing herself into these activities with strength and determination. She was later parachuted into France, where she helped organise and lead resistance fighters. On one memorable occasion she walked and cycled 500 km through several German checkpoints to find a radio operator. She believed that being female allowed her to pass through checkpoints that no one else could get through.
Nancy received medals from Allied countries. The medals are displayed in the World War II gallery at the Australian War Memorial, and form a fitting tribute to this fearless woman, who passed away in 2011.
Perhaps the best words to underline Nancy Wake's spirit came from her own lips: “I hate wars and violence. But if they come, I don't see why we women should just wave our men a proud goodbye and then make them shoes, socks and gloves.”
24. What might most people think of Nancy Wake on hearing her nickname
A. She was a protective woman.
B. She was gentle and easily harmed.
C. She would like to tell the truth all the time.
D. She was not afraid of being involved in a war.
25. What did Nancy Wake do at the start of the war
A. She got a full copy of the Gestapo's most-wanted list.
B. She helped people get away from war areas.
C. She organised and led resistance fighters.
D. She left France for Spain for good.
26. What can be learned about Nancy Wake as a female soldier
A. She fell victim to cruelty easily.
B. She died in a parachute accident.
C. She became a successful radio operator.
D. She got past German checkpoints successfully.
27. Which of the following is probably Nancy Wake's belief
A. Women can fight on the front line.
B. Women can make a great difference at home.
C. Women should be trained to support the family.
D. Women shouldn't put themselves in high-risk situations.
C
Your biology teacher may insist that science is not a laughing matter, but scientists would argue that laughter is a scientific matter. These scientists have found a basic difference in how men and women laugh.
Jo-Anne Bachorowski and her research team recorded the laughter of 97 volunteers. The volunteers watched clips ( 电影片段) from funny movies. The scientists were surprised at the variety of sounds people made when they laughed. Rarely did they hear sounds that we stereotype as laughter such as “tee hee hee” or “ho ho ho.” More often they heard vowel (元音) sounds such as those heard in “car” (aah) or “glow” (ooh). What's more, women tended to laugh in a more sing-song way, while men more often grunted (发出哼声).
The researchers caution that this work was limited to people in the United States, so the results may not be universal. Bachorowski predicts that cultural influences may affect what causes people to laugh, but it probably does not change how we laugh.
Although we do laugh at jokes and funny movies, 80% of our laughter occurs during everyday comments in everyday social situations. Robert Provine, a neuroscientist who studies laughter, went to places such as shopping malls and collected more than 1, 200 conversations. He found that the person speaking laughed 46% more than the listeners and that women laughed more often than men. Furthermore, the response to the speaker depended on the speaker's gender. People, whether male or female, laughed more readily in response to a male speaker. The researchers also observed that laughter rarely interrupted speech. Instead, laughter came at the end of a phrase, much like punctuation following a written sentence.
Humans may be “tuned ( 使协调)” for laughter much in the same way that songbirds are “tuned” for song — especially their own specific family song. Certain nerve cells (神经细胞) in the songbird's brain “fire” in response to hearing his song. Perhaps humans have specialized nerve cells that respond to laughter. After all, laughter is a specialized vocalization, and we are “tuned” to respond to vocalizations in language.
28. How did Bachorowski's team do their research
A. By studying how people laugh globally.
B. By analyzing cultural influences on humans' laughter.
C. By observing everyday conversations in shopping malls.
D. By studying sounds made by volunteers in response to funny movies.
29. What did Bachorowski's team find
A. Men and women laugh differently.
B. Vowel sounds are rarely heard in laughter.
C. Cultural influences determine how people laugh.
D. People think jokes are funnier than comedy movies.
30. Which of the following agrees with Provine's finding
A. Men laugh more often than women.
B. Listeners laugh more often than speakers.
C. Laughter may easily interrupt a conversation.
D. Male speakers make people laugh more easily.
31. Why does the author mention songbirds in the last paragraph
A. To describe how birds laugh.
B. To praise the beautiful songs they sing.
C. To explain how humans' laughter works.
D. To show that laughter also exists among animals.
D
ABC News' “World News Tonight With David Muir” met with several World War II veterans ( 老兵) across the U. S. and traveled with them as they made their journey back to Normandy, France for the anniversary of that day.
Five U. S. veterans were awarded the Légion d'honneur, France's highest award for merit ( 功绩), one of whom was 96-year-old Stanley Friday, who served in the 3rd Army, 80th division. An Army scout, he fought all through France, Belgium, Luxembourg, Germany and Austria. He was charged with being ahead of the division, locating enemies and determining enemy strength.
On Wednesday, the once young men gathered in the Normandy American Cemetery (公墓). It's the site of the first cemetery set up by the U.S. Army two days after D-Day. The U.S. veterans also returned to the beaches of Normandy, where on D-Day, Allied forces stormed the shores to liberate Europe from Hitler's Germany. One of the veterans collected sand to take back home with him.
Harold Himmelsbach, 93, who served in the 123rd Quartermaster Truck Company Aviation, said that troops had been training for D-Day but just didn't know when it would occur. On June 6, 1944, he and his unit were awakened at 3 a.m., ate breakfast on their ship and then were told to get their gear (装备).
“All of a sudden, I'm out on the deck ( 甲板), when the first explosions took place. So I had no gear on or anything else. I was just — didn't even have my helmet on,” he said. “All of a sudden, an explosion took place right next to us ... And it just, of course, was a shock, obviously. And it, it just ..., all of a sudden, water came up over my head and, and washed over the top of us and everything ...”
During World War II, 16 million Americans served. As of September 30, 2018, fewer than 500, 000 World War II veterans were alive. Himmelsbach said that he remembered learning that he'd lost one of his friends on D-Day in the first explosions. “It was a matter of taking care of your friend. And that's what we all did ...” he said. “I take great satisfaction in being involved in such a worthy cause.”
32. What can be learned about Friday
A. He was a hero fighting against Nazi Germany.
B. He took sand from the beaches of Normandy home.
C. He was a French commander during World War II.
D. He set up the first American cemetery in Normandy.
33. Which word best describes D-Day according to Himmelsbach
A. Widely-supported.
B. Decisive.
C. Dramatic.
D. Well-prepared.
34. How did Himmelsbach feel about what he did during World War II
A. He was wise.
B. He was proud.
C. He was selfish.
D. He was regretful.
35. What is the purpose of the text
A. To tell some stories about D-Day.
B. To publicize the Légion d'honneur of France.
C. To introduce the Normandy American Cemetery.
D. To show respect to the soldiers fighting in World War II.

Mohamad Al Jounde, 16 years old, grew up in Syria, but fled (逃走) to Lebanon when life became too dangerous at home. Like thousands of other refugee ( 难民) children, he couldn't go to school, so he set out to make a difference for children in the same situation. 36
When he was 12, Mohamad's home town saw the arrival of refugees from war-torn Homs and Hama, and he was moved to help the children that had left everything behind.
37 His mother was arrested (逮捕) and detained (拘留) twice, and when her life was threatened, his family packed their belongings and left for Lebanon. In Lebanon, they struggled with poverty. His parents couldn't find work. 38 It was a struggle, but rather than defeating him, it fueled his will to fight for a better future, for himself and for his peers. Together with his family, Mohamad started a school for Syrian children in a refugee camp. 39 But it was rebuilt professionally, and staffed with formal teachers. It now teaches 200 children.
Mohamad draws on his biggest passions, photography and film-making, to tell the stories of refugee children. He teaches photography, and encourages children to take photos of their daily lives. Mohamad encourages them to express themselves and to process their trauma (创伤). He says, “ 40 It takes trust to get them out.” The refugee children have painful memories of war, and are afraid to start all over again. Mohamad creates opportunities for them to interact with other children from both Syria and Lebanon.

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。
I was handing out math books when I passed by the terrarium (育养箱). The lid (盖子) was pushed aside, and Bob was nowhere in sight. That's strange, I thought. Ms. Cook is always making sure the lid is on tight. “Bob is not in the terrarium,” I said. “Oh my,” said Ms. Cook. “Thanks for noticing, Kayla. We'll organize a search.” We searched every corner of the classroom, but Bob was nowhere to be found.
“I suppose we could make posters so everyone will know to look out for Bob,” said Ms. Cook. Then she asked Amanda to hand out construction paper while she wrote six words on the whiteboard: reward, harmless, gentle, return, smooth, and reptile. As she wrote, I thought I saw her glance down at the notebook where she puts her lesson plans!
“Be sure to use each word in your description,” said Ms. Cook. She was turning our search into a vocabulary lesson.
When we'd written our sentences, Ms. Cook said, “It's time to get ready for art.” She passed out colored markers and crayons. “Everyone, draw a picture of Bob on your poster. We'll hang the posters in the hallway (走廊) on our way to lunch.”
After lunch, we all rushed to the terrarium. Bob had not returned. “Back to your seats,” said Ms. Cook. “It's time for science. I suppose Mr. Henderson wouldn't mind if we made an unscheduled visit to the library.” Ms. Cook had turned our search into our art lesson. Now Bob was becoming our science lesson. Bob's disappearance was looking suspicious (可疑的).
“We need some books about snakes,” I explained to Mr. Henderson when we entered the library. Mr. Henderson disappeared between two shelves and returned with an armful of books. Ms. Cook divided the class into six groups of four. Each group read a book about snakes.
注意:
1. 续写词数应为150左右;
2. 请按如下格式在相应位置作答。
When we returned to class, each group gave a book report. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ “Everyone take out a piece of paper and write Ms. Butler a thank-you note,” said Ms. Cook. _______________________________________________________________

One possible version:
Dear Mark,
I'd like to recommend a war movie Assembly to you, which was directed by famous Chinese director Feng Xiaogang, starring Zhang Hanyu, Hu Jun, and several other accomplished actors.
Set in the Chinese Civil War and the following years, the movie tells how a soldier and his comrades hold and fight to the last man until he hears the bugle cry of assembly and how the soldier struggles to return honor to his men and their sacrifice.
Filmed in a realistic style and with impressive sound effects, it'll be worth your time.
Yours,
Li Hua
第二节
One possible version:
When we returned to class, each group gave a book report. I was explaining why some snakes don't make good pets when Ms. Butler, the principal, walked in with Bob around her arm. “Look what I found under my desk,” said Ms. Butler. “I knew it must be your snake because he looks just like the pictures on your posters. He is very gentle.” Ms. Cook put Bob back into the terrarium. She made sure the lid was securely in place. “It was very nice of Ms. Butler to return Bob, since she doesn't like snakes,” said Ms. Cook.
“Everyone take out a piece of paper and write Ms. Butler a thank-you note,” said Ms. Cook. “Double-check your spelling and grammar,” she added. As Ms. Cook collected our notes, the bell rang. I was first in line behind Ms. Cook. “Ms. Cook, I think I know how Bob escaped,” I said. “I think he had help. But his disappearance made school very interesting. Thanks for the fun day.” Ms. Cook smiled.
