Four best surf towns
BALI, INDONESIA
If you want to meet the best surfers in the world, head to Bali. Beginnerand intermediate (中级的) surfers should try beach breaks(近岸激浪) at Dreamland. More experienced surfers need to take a crack at two of the most famous spots in the world -- UIuwatu and Padang Padang.
When: May to September
WAIKIKI, THE UNITED STATES
With endless waves, a wide range of beaches, and lights bright enough to surf past dark, Waikiki is everything pop culture references promise it will be. Modern-day surfing as we know it today was born in Waikiki. The delight of Waikiki's long, slow-breaking waves makes it a must for any surfer, from the beginner to the seasoned professional.
When: May and June or September and October
TELAVIV, ISRAEL
In a region packed with history and religious significance, Tel Aviv is a city where the party never stops seriously. You can walk outside at 4 a.m. and have a haircut, some food, or find a bar or club. It's never closed. Among the ancient buildings is a vibrant（充满力的) beach scene, with waves on tap year-round.
When: November to March
MARESIAS, BRAZHL
The birthplace of Brazil's first world champion of surf, Maresias is best known for its mix of powerful waves. Located about 100 miles east of Sao Paulo, the capital of Brazil, Maresias became a holiday destination for Brazilians in the 1990s. The thick rainforest that previously made it less accessible, however, is also one of its selling points.

For 365 days a year, come rain or shine, Ruth Rose, 87, has taken a morning swim in Seaford, a small coastal town on the south coast of England. What started as a personal habit has developed into an almost full-time occupation（工作） over the past eight years, with Rose gathering a group of over 150 swimmers each day.
“It's a social event of the day,” she said. “The community needs this sort of grouping of people. We're doing something together and making our lives better.” Rose's group, called the Seaford Mermaids, has grown in number since last year.
While cold water swimming is nothing new in the U.K., its popularity has grown massively over the past few years. According to a recent nationwide study of the popularity of open water swimming, 7.5 million swim in outdoor pools or open water every year. 2.1 million of those say their preference is to swim in cold water. And supporters say swimming in cold water isn't just a form of exercise.
Jo, a recent addition to the Seaford Mermaids and one of the younger members of the group, lost her job last summer. She said that after being encouraged by a friend, swimming each morning had made a “huge difference” to her life.
While precautions (预防措施) must be taken, especially for first-- timers, to enter the water slowly and be well aware of an exit strategy in case muscle movements slow down in the cold water, “there may be some potential (可能的) benefits of cold water swimming” in treating anxiety and depression（抑郁), though the science is still unclear, said Dr. Heather Massey, a senior lecturer at School of Sport Health and Exercise Science, University of Portsmouth.
“One of the ones that is a bit of a hot topic at the moment is that it may have some potential health benefits,” Massey said. “This is a hugely under-researched area and there's lots of anecdotal(传闻的) evidence that may support an improvement in people's health and well-being, whether that's physical or mental health. However, we don't have the scientific evidence to support that yet.
24. What has Rose gained from her daily swimming?
A. A full-time job. B. A habit of rising early.
C. Relief from her illness. D. Good human relationships.
25. What do we know about Jo?
A. She was an organizer of the Seaford Mermaids.
B. She was lifted up by the Seaford Mermaids.
C. She preferred swimming in cold water.
D. She encouraged her friends to swim.
26. Which statement would Massey agree with?
A. Cold water swimming is a risky sport.
B. Cold water swimming is beneficial to the old.
C. Benefits of cold water swimming remain to be confirmed.
D. Research on cold water swimming has been done globally.
27. What is the main purpose of the text?
A. To discuss the relationship between swimming and health.
B. To-show a popular outdoor sport in the U.K.
C. To call attention to the risks of swimming.
D. To introduce an influential group.
C
Every year the Royal Botanic Gardens, Kew, and the New York Botanical Garden open their doors to thousands of visitors. They go there for the world-famous orchid (兰花) shows. But these organizations are not just protecting living plants but also recording the culture connected with them.
Working with the Institute of Medicinal Plant Development, Beijing, Kew has developed a collection of plants--including orchids. The plants are collected in the forms they are used in traditional Chinese medicine. This is a storehouse of medical knowledge and a tool for cultural research.
Dr. Barnabas Seyler, assistant researcher in the department of environment at Sichuan University, believes in the key role of botanical gardens. As an ethnobotanist (民族植物学家), Seyler is looking at the relationship between orchids and local culture of Liangshan. “They can help the culture continue to exist through providing protection, educating the general public, and supporting traditional knowledge, stories, and cultural traditions connected with these plants,” he says.
In China, orchids are more than just wild plants. “If you walk into any Chinese-restaurant around the world, or into any teahouse in China, you will likely find paintings, place settings, or other cultural things showing orchids,” he says. “Many people, especially in the west, do not fully understand the weight that the plant has held throughout history in traditional Han Chinese culture.
The researchers have noticed that orchid species native to Sichuan are disappearing rapidly. Their beauty is killing them. Wild-collected rare forms could be sold for thousands of dollars. In his study, Seyler asked locals of Yiand Han communities whether they could recognize different orchid species. They also asked them about how to find and grow orchids, and knowledge about orchids in arts and language. They found that when species were locally dying out, knowledge about them would be forgotten.
Culture doesn't soon disappear because of the loss of one plant or group of plants. But what happens if species loss continues?
28. Why does the author mention the collection of plants?
A. To explain why the two orchid shows are so popular.
B. To explain how Kew saves living plants across the world.
C. To show the importance of working with foreign countries.
D. To show how botanical gardens are protecting the environment.
29. What is Seyler's opinion about botanical gardens?
A. They can help keep orchid culture alive.
B. They will win more support from the public.
C. They should pay more attention to local cultures.
D. They can play a key role in environmental protection.
30. What does Seyler mainly discuss in paragraph 4?
A. The long history of orchids in China.
B. The many uses of orchids in the world.
C. The importance of orchids in Chinese culture.
D. The great influence of orchids on Western people.
31. What did Seyler's study center on?
A. How to prevent orchids from dying out.
B. What will happen to orchids in Sichuan.
C. How to increase knowledge about orchids.
D. What the loss of orchids will bring about.
D
It's our galactic(银河系的) home, but the Milky Way contains many mysteries scientists are working to uncover. Now, as The Guardian reports, astronomers at the European Space Agency (ESA) have built a 3D map that provides the most detailed look at our galaxy yet.
The -data has been seven years in the making. In 2013, the ESA launched its Gaia Space .Observatory from Kourou in French Guiana. Since then, two high-powered telescopes aboard the spacecraft have been sweeping the skies, recording the locations, movements, and changes in brightness of more than a billion stars in the Milky Way and beyond.
Using Gaia's findings, astronomers put together a 3D map that allows scientists to study the galaxy in greater depth than ever before. The data has made it possible to measure the acceleration (加速度) of the solar system. By comparing the solar system's movements to those of more faraway objects in space, researchers have determined that the solar system is slowly falling toward the center of the galaxy at an acceleration of 7 millimeters per second per year, The Guardian reports. Additionally, the map shows how matter is distributed (使分配)throughout the Milky Way. With this information, scientists should be able to measure the mass of the Milky Way.
Gaia's observations may also hold clues to the Milky Way's past and future. The data holds small remaining parts of the 10-billion-year-old round flat object that made up the edge of the star system. By comparing it to the shape of the Milky Way today, astronomers have determined that the flat object will continue to increase in size as new stars are created.
The Gaia observatory was launched with the mission of carrying out an updated star census. The previous one was conducted in 1957, and Gaia's new data reaches four times farther and accounts for 100 times more stars.
32. According to the findings, what is happening to the solar system?
A. It is becoming larger and larger slowly.
B: It is attracting more new stars to its edge.
C. It is losing a 10-billion-year-old round flat star.
D. It is slightly accelerating toward the galactic center.
33. What may scientists learn more about with Gaia's observations?
A. The size of the galaxy.
B. The origin of the galaxy.
C. The features of matter in the galaxy.
D. The speeds of new stars in the galaxy.
34. What does the underlined word “census” in the last paragraph mean?
A. Filming. · B. Locating. C. Counting. D. Comparing.
35. What is the best title for the text?
A. How the Gaia Space Observatory works
B. The solar system has changed since 2013
C. Why the galaxy is also called “Milky Way”
D. 3D map shows the galaxy in more exact detail
第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）
根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
There is no doubt that in its short existence, the Internet has already had a powerful effect on everyday life. Never before has information been so readily available(可获得的) 36 Considering how fast this medium of communication has taken hold, it's perhaps not surprising that it has also had a rather huge effect on the language we use.
So, today we're taking a closer look at how exactly social media and the Internet are affecting our everyday communication.
37 This might be a fitting example of how much vocabulary that got its start on the net has come into everyday use. In addition to “selfie”, “to Google” has become a widely accepted verb, “photobombing” is a known phenomenon and we have Facebook to thank for “unfriending”. This list goes on and on. 38 Think about “wireless”, “wireless”, “tablet” and “like”. They're now used in completely new ways.
While gaining new vocabulary and evolving（逐步发展) is something languages have always done, the Internet serves to speed up this process considerably. Another curious thing is the speed at which new vocabulary is introduced, used, overused, and discarded（不再使用)in the Internet Age.
39 In an era where anyone can be their own author, editor, and publisher, it might not be surprising that traditional grammar rules are being replaced by something more flexible.
The development of the Internet has changed many parts of our life. 40
A. Half of the content online is in English.
B. Besides, common words stand for something different.
C. There are also many forms of informal writing on the Internet.
D. More than a quarter of Internet users are between the ages of 15 and 24.
E. Keeping in touch with friends and family across the planet has been made so easy.
F. It has certainly changed the way we practice and communicate with language.
G. In 2013, the Oxford English Dictionary stated “selfie” as their Word of the Year.

I'd grown up that hearing endless stories of my grandpa childhood in his hometown. I thought I knew it all: the size to his tiny home, the kindness of his neighbourhood, and even the details of his favourite dishes making by his mother. Yet it wasn't until I was fourteenth years old that it all came to life. My grandpa and I walked along his old street and stop outside his house. My word, it was small than I'd dreamed. Over the next couple of hour, my grandpa seemed turn back into a boy, memories he'd long since forgotten coming back to him. I even heard new stories of his youth from neighbours which came out to say a long-lost hello.

Dear Sir/ Madam,
I'm Li Hua, an exchange student from China. I've learned from the school website that there will be a camp for students who are interested in outer space in our school this summer holiday. I'm writing to ask to join it.
I have been keen on outer space since I was in primary school. And I have played an active part in many activities about outer space and have gained a lot of knowledge from them. For example, I once worked in the aviation museum of my city as a volunteer.
It is my great hope that you can accept me as a member of your camp. I am looking forward to your reply!
Yours,
Li Hua

M: Good afternoon, everyone. It's my great pleasure to be standing here today. How time flies! (19) We've been university students for almost one month. (18) Talking about why I came to this university' I have a lot to say.
First, studying in the university gives me the opportunity to have new experiences. I have to organize my time and way I spend the money. I also have to take care of myself. Second, the campus is beautiful, and the dormitory is well-furnished. (20) However, what I like best here is that I can make full use of the library, which has so many books, newspapers and magazines. Becoming a university student has also given me the opportunity to meet friends, like you. I have not only made friends with you, but also have learned a lot from you. The most important thing for me is to follow my dream. All along (目始全终) I have dreamed of becoming a good teacher. I like children and I want to make friends with them. I think this university can help me to realize my dream.
That's all! Thank you!
