As I lay in bed, my four-year-old daughter, Shawn, asked over and over again, “Daddy, please take me to AstroWorld. Can you Will you ”
I didn’t want to go to the amusement park, but what was I going to say, especially when I looked into my daughter’s big, brown eyes It was made even more difficult by the fact that I was disabled (有残疾的), having been shot in the head as an innocent (无辜的) bystander in an accident. Plus, we were in the middle of a hot Houston summer. But I continued to stare into Shawn’s big eyes, asking me, her father, to take her to AstroWorld. In the end, I gave in.
We stood in line for the first ride, inching our way up for forty-five minutes until we finally got to the front. Shawn climbed onto the ride first, her excitement building, followed by me climbing in awkwardly to sit down next to her.
The ride attendant approached us, buckled (系安全带) us in, and said, “Sir, I could tell by the way you walked that you have some problems with your body. We at AstroWorld have two policies for disabled guests: They get to go to the front of the line and they get to ride twice.” With these words, the attendant finished buckling us in and walked away to help another group of riders.
I did not think much of the woman’s comments. However, my daughter looked up at me, smiled from ear to ear, and yelled with excitement, “DADDY THANK GOD YOU WERE SHOT!”
At first, I sat there, shocked. However, I quickly realized that my young daughter was teaching me something very valuable that day: With everything that is bad, there has to be some good. Shawn was teaching me to always look for the silver lining in our life.

Beauty sleep is a real thing, researches have shown that people who have enough sleep look more attractive to others.
A few bad nights is enough to make a person look “especially” more ugly, their sleep experiments show. The researchers asked 25 university students to join in their sleep experiment. They were asked to get a good night’s sleep for two nights. A week later, they were asked to sleep for only four hours every night for two nights in a row.
The researchers took make-up free (素颜) photos of the volunteers after both the good and the bad sleep. Next, they asked 122 strangers to have a look at the photos and judge them on attractiveness, health, and sleepiness, as well as asking them: “How much would you like to make friends with this person in the picture ” The strangers were good at judging if the person they were looking at was tired, and, if they were sleepy, their attractiveness score was low.
The strangers also said they wouldn’t want to socialize with the tired students. The researchers say this is natural for people. An unhealthy-looking face makes people run away. In other words, people don’t want to hang around with people who might be ill.
Dr. Brewer, an expert at the University of Liverpool said “Judgement of attractiveness is often unconscious, but we all do it, and we are able to judge on even something small like whether someone looks tired or unhealthy. This study is a good reminder of how important sleep is to us.”
28.When did the researchers take make-up free photos
A.After two nights’ good sleep. B.After two nights’ bad sleep.
C.Before the experiment. D.After both two nights’ good sleep and two nights’ bad sleep.
29.What kind of friends did the strangers like to make
A.The people who were tired. B.The people who were sleepy.
C.The people who were attractive and energetic. D.The people who were unhealthy.
30.What does the underlined word “socialize” mean
A.travel B.communicate C.compare D.work
31.According to the passage, which of the following is the best title
A.Beauty sleep, More attractive. B.More sleep, More Friends.
C.Less sleep, Fewer friends. D.No attractiveness, No friends.
Researchers have developed a new soft robot design that conducts itself with three behaviors at the same time: rolling forward, turning like a record and following a path that goes around a central point. The equipment, which operates without human or computer control, holds promise for developing soft robots that can be used to AA-head and map unknown environments.
The new soft robots are called twisted ring-bots (扭曲环机器人). They are made of something like the ribbon (缎带) and then joined together at the end to form a ring.
When the robots are placed on a surface that is at least 55 degrees Celsius, which is hotter than the surrounding air, one part of the ribbon touching the surface becomes smaller, while one part in the air does not. This induces a rolling movement: the warmer the surface, the faster the robot rolls. “The ribbon rolls on its horizontal axis (横轴), giving the ring forward strength,” says Jie Yin, a professor of mechanical and aerospace engineering.
The twisted ring-bot also turns along its central axis. And as the twisted ring-bot moves forward, it travels in a path around a central point, basically moving in a large circle. However, if the twisted ring-bot meets a boundary — like the wall of a box — it will travel along the boundary.
The twisted ring-bots are examples of equipment whose behaviour is governed by physical intelligence, meaning their actions are determined by their structural design and the materials they are made of, rather than being directed by a computer or human.
“Soft robotics is still a relatively new field.” Yin says. “Finding new ways to control the movement of soft robots in a repeatable and engineered way moves the field forward. And advancing our understanding of what is possible is exciting.”
32.What makes the robot roll faster and faster
A.The central axis. B.The computer control.
C.The higher surface temperature. D.The ring formed by the joined ribbon.
33.How does the author introduce the new soft robots
A.By using quotes from experts. B.By making some comparisons.
C.By analyzing cause and effect. D.By explaining the robot’s working ways.
34.What is Yin’s attitude towards twisted ring-bots
A.Unclear. B.Positive.
C.Negative. D.Doubtful.
35.What is the best title for the text
A.The New Soft Robots B.Ribbons and Their Rolling
C.Twisted Rings and the Axis D.A great advancement in robotics
If you struggle to meet new people or join in a conversation at social events, it might be that your body language is sending the message to others to stay away. 36 Below are some tips to get you started.
Smile. Although it is possible to overdo smiling, generally it is better to smile than frown (皱眉). Try to find things that really make you happy or laugh and your smile will come across as natural rather than forced.
37 . Make sure that you aren’t using objects to shield (遮住) yourself from others. At a party, hold your drink at your side instead of close to your chest (胸膛). Keeping objects between you and others makes you appear guarded and closed.
Use eye contact. When you do end up talking with someone, be sure to maintain eye contact. Avoiding eye contact makes you appear untrustworthy or disinterested. If direct eye contact feels hard, try looking at only one eye at a time, or at a part between a person’s eyes. 38
Avoid nervous habits. Even though you might be nervous, avoid the habits that go with it. 39 . Don’t play with your pen or the change in your pocket. Keep your hands relaxed at your sides or use them to gesture (做手势) when making conversation.
40 . Say nice things about other people instead of mean things. Approach others and include those who seem to be left out. Be a positive person and you will attract other positive people to you.
Although it may feel unnatural at first, with time you should start to feel more open and confident as a result of changing your body language.
A.Avoid blocks
B.Use objects on hand
C.They won’t be able to tell the difference
D.Apart from body language, always be positive
E.Stop touching your face or playing with your hair
F.How can you read different types of body language properly
G.How can you improve your body language to appear more approachable
三、完形填空
Scientific studies show that laughter produces chemicals to make people feel better, which means clown (小丑) doctors can be helpful.
I chose this 41 because of my experience of going to hospital when I was a kid. Although the doctors and nurses did a great job, hospitals weren’t really designed for children. I stayed there feeling 42 and a little bored.
After years’ 43 training, I work as part of a program known as “hospital clowning”. Being a clown doctor means I can help people by 44 them.
One day, putting 45 my curly rainbow wig (假发) and big red nose, I walked into the waiting area, where there was a familiar atmosphere of 46 and tension. At that time I noticed a small girl crying in pain, with her ankle (脚踝) was twice its 47 size. Her 48 parents were sitting uncomfortably on plastic chairs, trying their best to comfort the nervous and crying girl.
While the doctor focused on 49 her ankle, I got her 50 by doing a magic trick. Although she was clearly still in some pain, her scared and anxious look had been 51 first by a small smile and then by loud laughter as I 52 produced her sock from out of my pocket. Seeing their daughter so much happier has 53 made her parents more relaxed. My magic medicine did indeed seem to do the trick.
Even today, I am still 54 a broad smile as I remember all the fun and laughter of the day. While there might be more hospital visits ahead for Lara and others, I hope that clown doctors help make it a friendlier place to visit. After all, it really is true that 55 is the best medicine.

42.A.absorbed B.frightened C.tired D.confused

48.A.ambitious B.disappointed C.careful D.anxious
49.A.examining B.experiencing C.controlling D.operating

I was walking on the shore when I suddenly heard someone crying. It just drew my attention and I began to look around. Suddenly I saw a little child sitting on a rock who was crying. It was around twelve at night. “Why is he here Why is he crying ” I wondered. And above all I couldn’ t see anyone around him, for he was too small to be alone. I approached him, initially he was frightened but I calmed him down and gave him a chocolate to eat. From the way he ate the chocolate I could make this out that he was very hungry.
I felt pity on him, who was a little boy around seven years old. His clothes were all torn. Now he was quite comfortable with me and I asked why he was crying. He told me to look at those waves in the sea and asked how I felt about them. I said they were beautiful. But he made an angry face and said he hated them, because these waves took his parents away. He was just five and since then he started wandering in this unknown city. No one loved him. These words “No one loved him” just took me into a flashback.
I suddenly recollected the dark memories of my life. I recalled that I was an orphan (孤儿) and how a couple adopted me when I was four years old. They did a lot for me, because of them today I am the engineer of the biggest shipping company. They were in a sense my true parents but I was so unfortunate that I lost them in an accident nearly three years ago. I remembered how I always wanted to thank them for what all they did for me but I couldn’t. I felt like this lttle boy was at the same situation like mine when I was a four-year old little kid.
注意:1.续写词数应为150左右;
2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
Now it was my turn I told the little boy about my little old sad story and what I am today.

I was first attracted by climbing in 2016 when, as a reporter, I was arranged to interview some professional mountaineers.

We trained at a local gym, which was the easy part. However, I found there were lots of things that frightened me about Mount Everest. That was one of the most difficult things for climbing. Anyway, I’ve managed to climb the mountain twice. The first time I went, as a reporter, I carried my camera all the way, but it wasn’t necessary. You can even forget showers on a mountain as well. On my second trip, I didn’t even take my toothbrush. But to get water, I had to melt snow, using the fuel that I brought with me. I’ve never reached the top of the mountain yet, but I’m not thinking of giving up. Instead, I’m planning.

(研究人员在志愿者睡眠良好和睡眠不佳的情况下,都为他们拍摄了素颜照片。)”可知,研究人员是在睡了两晚好觉之后和两晚睡眠不好之后给志愿者拍摄不化妆的照片。故选D。
29.细节理解题。根据第三段“The strangers were good at judging if the person they were looking at was tired, and, if they were sleepy, their attractiveness score was low. (这些陌生人善于判断他们所观察的人是否疲惫,如果这个人很困倦,那么他们的吸引力评分就会很低。)”可知,这些陌生人喜欢结交那些外表迷人且精力充沛的人。故选C。
30.词句猜测题。根据第三段“The strangers were good at judging if the person they were looking at was tired, and, if they were sleepy, their attractiveness score was low. (这些陌生人善于判断他们所观察的人是否疲惫,如果这个人很困倦,那么他们的吸引力评分就会很低。)”以及划线词后文“with the tired students (这些疲惫不堪的学生们)”可知,如果这个人很困倦,那么他们的吸引力评分就会很低,即陌生人不愿意和疲惫不堪的学生交流。故划线词意思是“交流”。故选B。
31.主旨大意题。根据第一段“Beauty sleep is a real thing, researches have shown that people who have enough sleep look more attractive to others. (美梦确实存在,研究表明,睡眠充足的人在他人眼中会显得更加迷人。)”以及文章主要说明了研究表明充足睡眠让人更具吸引力,实验显示缺觉者颜值、健康评分低,他人不愿与其社交,专家强调睡眠重要性。可知,A选项“美丽的睡眠,更具吸引力”最符合文章标题。故选A。
32.C 33.D 34.B 35.A
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了新型软体机器人(扭曲环机器人)的设计和工作原理。
32.细节理解题。由文章第三段中“When the robots are placed on a surface that is at least 55 degrees Celsius, which is hotter than the surrounding air, one part of the ribbon touching the surface becomes smaller, while one part in the air does not. This induces a rolling movement: the warmer the surface, the faster the robot rolls. (当这些机器人被放置在温度至少为55摄氏度(比周围空气温度高)的表面上时,与该表面接触的缎带部分会收缩变小,而暴露在空气中的部分则不会。这就引发了滚动运动:表面温度越高,机器人滚动得就越快)”可知,表面温度越高,机器人滚动得越快。故选C。
33.推理判断题。由文章第一段中“Researchers have developed a new soft robot design that conducts itself with three behaviors at the same time: rolling forward, turning like a record and following a path that goes around a central point. (研究人员开发出了一种新型软体机器人设计,该机器人能够同时表现出三种行为:向前滚动、像唱片一样旋转以及围绕中心点沿路径行进)”、第二段中“The new soft robots are called twisted ring-bots (扭曲环机器人). They are made of something like the ribbon (缎带) and then joined together at the end to form a ring. (这种新型软机器人被称为扭曲环机器人。它们由类似缎带的材料制成,然后在末端连接起来形成一个环)”、第三段中“When the robots are placed on a surface that is at least 55 degrees Celsius, which is hotter than the surrounding air, one part of the ribbon touching the surface becomes smaller, while one part in the air does not. This induces a rolling movement: the warmer the surface, the faster the robot rolls. (当这些机器人被放置在温度至少为55摄氏度(比周围空气温度高)的表面上时,与该表面接触的缎带部分会收缩变小,而暴露在空气中的部分则不会。这就引发了滚动运动:表面温度越高,机器人滚动得就越快)”可知,文章先是介绍了新型软机器人能同时展现的三种行为,接着说明了它们的结构(由类似缎带的材料制成环状),然后详细阐述了在不同条件下机器人是如何运动的,这些都是在解释机器人的工作方式,所以作者主要是通过解释机器人的工作方式来介绍新型软机器人的。故选D。
34.推理判断题。由文章最后一段中“Finding new ways to control the movement of soft robots in a repeatable and engineered way moves the field forward. And advancing our understanding of what is possible is exciting. (找到以可重复和工程化的方式控制软体机器人运动的新方法,将推动该领域的发展。而我们对于可能性的理解不断进步,这令人兴奋)”可知,殷教授对这种扭曲环机器人持积极态度。故选B。
35.主旨大意题。通读全文,尤其是由文章第一段中“Researchers have developed a new soft robot design that conducts itself with three behaviors at the same time: rolling forward, turning like a record and following a path that goes around a central point. (研究人员开发出了一种新型软体机器人设计,该机器人能够同时表现出三种行为:向前滚动、像唱片一样旋转以及围绕中心点沿路径行进)”可知,本文主要介绍了新型软体机器人这一内容,“The New Soft Robots (新型软体机器人)”可以作为本文的最佳标题。故选A。

66. To make the West Hill more beautiful and raise our environmental awareness, we students went to plant trees on the afternoon of last Friday. We took a bus and set off at 1:30, with shovels and buckets. On arriving there, we started to work. Some dug holes, and some carried young trees and planted them. After that, we began to water them. We were in high spirits at first, but bit by bit, we felt rather tired. After working for three hours, we returned to school, tired but happy, for we knew we had made a difference to our environment.
67.One possible version:
Now it was my turn I told the little boy about my little old sad story and what I am today. Tears rolled down both of our cheeks. I saw his eyes full of tears and my heart was full of love for him. So I asked if he would like to be with me. I was a thirty-seven-year-old man and he was seven. For the first time I saw that if I would have been married then my son would have been innocent like him. He was full of tears, hugged me and kissed me. He told no one has ever loved him like that after his parents’ death.
Now there was a different kind of peace that we both could feel on this shore. The only sound that we could hear was waves. The little boy thought for a while and then he took hold of my hand. He said that he accepted me as his friend. Today thirty years have passed, and I am sixty-seven years old, who retired a few years ago and the little boy is thirty-seven. Now he calls me dad and he is a famous doctor in a big hospital.
