二、阅读理解。
A
If you have ever had a cat，or have watched one of the many funny cat videos online，you'll know that cats have a mind of their own.A lot of the things they do are hard to understand－they like to climb up tall furniture，fit themselves in small spaces and attack small objects for no reason at all.21·世纪*教育网
According to Tony Buffington，a professor at Ohio State University in the US，cats' strange behavior largely comes from their way of life back in the wild.2-1-c-n-j-y
“Cats today still have many of the same instincts (本能) that allowed them to live in the wild for millions of years.” he said in a TED Talk.“To them，our homes are their jungles.”
In the wild，cats are hunters.Their bodies and great balancing abilities allow them to climb to high places to better look at the environment.Even though they don't have to hunt anymore in human houses，they still keep the old habit of viewing the living room from，for example，the top of the refrigerator.21*cnjy*com
Cats' hunting instinct is also what makes them attack small things like keys and USB drives.In the wild，they hunt whatever they can get，and most of the animals they kill are small.
However，cats can also be prey.This explains why they like to stay in small spaces like drawers or washing machines—they are hiding，or they think they are hiding，from more dangerous animals.This is also why cats prefer a clean box，a smelly one could easily show enemies where they are.
But knowing how cats' minds work is not only useful for better understanding them.It may also help cats' owners to better meet cats' needs.21教育网
For example，owners could try to make climbing easier for cats by moving their furniture around.They could also make eating feel more like hunting instead of just giving food to the cats.
(A)16.What do cats usually do at home according to the passage?
A．Climb up some tall furniture.
B．Attack big things or animals.
C．Fit themselves into big spaces.
D．Stay in smelly places.
(C)17.To better meet cats' needs，what can owner do?21cnjy.com
A．Put them back in the wild.
B．Feed them only small food.
C．Move their furniture around.
D．Allow them to watch videos.
(C)18.What's the passage mainly about?
A．The food that cats are more likely to eat.
B．The places where cats like to hide at home.
C．The reason why cats have strange behavior.
D．The common ways cats look after themselves.
B
The population of Earth is still going up and scientists are worried that there will not be enough food for everybody in the middle of this century.One unusual plant from Madagascar，the Kalanchoe fedischenkoi，may help.It absorbs carbon dioxide at night and it needs 10 times less water than food plants like corns.This means it can grow in the desert.【来源：21·世纪·教育·网】
Living in the desert
It is dangerous to eat this plant，but scientists can study two related things about it：How it absorbs carbon dioxide at night when other plants only do this during the day，and why it is so good at living in the desert.There will be less good land for growing food in the future because deserts are increasing in size because of changes in the Earth's climate.Growing plants there will be more and more important.【来源：21cnj*y.co*m】
Using genes
There are two possible directions to take this research.To produce a desert plant to eat will be difficult，but it may be possible to use the genes from this plant and put them into food plants like beans or corns.This will only happen if most people accept this type of technology，which uses genes from one plant inside another plant.21教育名师原创作品
Fuel from dry land
The other possibility is to grow this type of plant for fuel.At the moment，people are asking why good land is used to grow plants for fuel and not for food.If we use deserts instead，then this problem is partly solved.Some，but not all，of the plants needed for fuel can use desert land.The world's climate is changing and population is still increasing，but the strange plant could be an answer to our future food or energy needs.
(D)19.The plant Kalanchoe fedischenkoi is good at living in the desert because ________.
A．it is dangerous to eat
B．it needs less good land
C．it can grow well without water
D．it absorbs carbon dioxide at night
(A)20.The underlined word “there” in the second paragraph refers to “________”．
A．in the deserts B．on the earth
C．in good places D．in the field
(C)21.From the passage，we can know that ________.
A．no plants can live in the desert
B．Kalanchoe fedischenkoi is a food plant
C．it is difficult to produce a desert plan to eat
D．all the plants for fuel can grow in the desert
(B)22.What would be the best title for the passage?21·cn·jy·com
A．Food Plants B．Desert Plants
C．Genes of a Plant D．Plants for Fuel

Recycle，reduce and reuse are three golden rules of environmental protection.Today we'd like to talk about the fourth rule：repair.www-2-1-cnjy-com
In old days，when something broke，people sent them to repairmen.Nowadays，however，the idea of repair has been out of date.People neither repair things themselves nor take them to repair shops，because the price of a new one is not much higher than that of repairing the old one.
Yet，repairing things can be a great way to save money and reduce waste of water，energy，etc.Here's how to deal with it.
Shop differently.Look for things that are not only fit for you，but also able to last and be repaired.Be willing to spend more on things for quality to save money in the long run.
Treat your things well.Follow their instructions and learn how to use them properly，clean wood beds and leather(皮革) shoes as you're advised，check your car，etc.
Try repairing things yourself.Don't think that you couldn't possibly do it.Many repairs are simple.You just have to carefully follow the instructions.www.21-cn-jy.com
Finally，when you say goodbye to something that is no longer worth repairing，recycle it if you can.It's also very important.
(D)23.What do people usually do now when something breaks?
A．Trade it for something else.
B．Send it to a repairman.
C．Repair it themselves.
D．Buy a new one.
(C)24.How many pieces of advice does the writer give us?21世纪教育网版权所有
A．Two. B．Three.
C．Four. D．Five.
(C)25.Which of the following may the writer agree with?2·1·c·n·j·y
A．Repairing things can save money and be good for one's health.21*cnjy*com
B．Repairing something is not as easy as you think.
C．Learn to use and clean things as you're advised.
D．If things are not worth repairing，drop them.
(B)26.What is the writer trying to advise?
A．Spending wisely.
B．Living a greener life.
C．Saving as much money as possible.
D．Enjoying the convenience of modern inventions.
三、词汇运用。
A)用方框中所给单词的适当形式填空，每词仅用一次。

B)根据短文内容和所给中文提示，在空白处写出单词的正确形式。
Tiny plants and animals live all around us.But we cannot see them because they are so small.In fact，they are everywhere.
They live in the soil，the air，and rivers and the 32.__oceans__ (海洋)．They grow on the highest mountains and in the 33.__deepest__ (最深的)caves.They are found in each city and in each country.Some are 34.__even__ (甚至) living on you，on your skin，hair，and inside your body.
These tiny plants and animals are called microbes.The word “microbe” is made from two other words：micro and bios.So microbe 35.__means__ (意思是) small life.
Microbes have been on earth for a very long time.They may have been the first 36.__kinds__ (种类) of life to exist.Today there are more microbes in the world than any other living things.
For 37.__thousands__ (几千的) of years，people did not know much about microbes.They were too small for them to see.But people did see many changes in their world—important changes.They saw the colour of the food change if they kept the food for long and it began to 38.__smell__ (发出气味) bad.They saw old plants and 39.__leaves__ (树叶) of trees fall over the ground.Such changes were a 40.__natural__ (自然的) part of the world，but people did not 41.__understand__ (明白) them.They did not know these changes were the evidence (迹象) of tiny plants and animals growing all around them.
四、语法填空。

In today's world，almost everyone knows air pollution is harmful to people's health.However，not all people know noise is also a kind of pollution and is harmful to humans' health.
People who work and live in 42.__noisy__(noise) conditions often go deaf.For example，many of the workers 43.__who__ print newspapers and books lose their hearing.Quite a few people living near airports 44.__also__ have hearing loss.Recently，it 45.__was__reported__ (report) that many teenagers in America can hear no 46.__better__(good) than 65-year-old people do，because these young people always listen to loud pop music.
Making a loud noise 47.__in__ public is also a kind of pollution.It not only disturbs others but also does great harm 48.__to__ people's hearing.Cars and machines also produce too much noise.Such pollution makes people feel 49.__uncomfortable__(comfortable) and unpleasant，and it can even cause them 50.__to__become__ (become) sick or deaf.Nowadays，many countries are trying to solve all sorts of environmental problems，51.__including__(include) noise pollution.
五、(2017·邵阳)书面表达。
