Question: Are you punctual (守时的)?

is happy about that.
Lisa, Brazil

insult (冒犯) to the person(s) we are meeting. It seems to say, “My time is more important than yours.”

events in my life. The secret is (and it really works!): I keep all the clocks (except my computer) in my life 10
minutes fast!
Wang Meimei, China
For an appointment, I always make sure I’m on time. Once I had a friend who was always late for everymeeting. For example, if we made it at 9, it would be a 45-minute trip for her. And then she would arrive at 9:45.

Last week, my ten-year-old daughter lay comfortably on the sofa, listening to music. Suddenly, she spoke in a
low mumble, as if to herself, “How about creating heart-shaped cards with beautiful messages and then hang them
on everyone’s mailbox around the community?” Her brothers heard what she said. They also got really excited
about the idea and their project started.
Every day they created a few cards—they cut the cards into heart shapes, wrote kind messages and wishes andthen decorated them. They wrote messages like—“You’re loved. Give our best wishes to your family. We wish
you all the happiness and love. Good luck to you. It’s been a great pleasure to have you with us. We are all
together. Thank you for being you. Thank you for your kindness.” And many more…
Within a week, they had more than 50 cards ready to be delivered. Every afternoon, the kids were really
excited to work on their project for a few hours. How carefully and seriously they did! And they were very
satisfied with their project. One day while they were working on the cards, my daughter said, “It makes me very
happy and very energetic when I do this.”
Finally, this Friday, the kids went around the community on their bicycles and hung the hearts on everyone’s
mailbox around the community. For them, it was a joyful day full of laughter, excitement and expectation. They
didn’t know how people were going to react but they were just happy doing it. They finished delivering cards by
late evening and they didn’t feel tired at all.
However, later that night it rained. Some of the cards probably got wet because of the rain. The kids felt a
little sad, but they recovered quickly, saying that they did their best and had so much fun. And they said they
could do it again. They really have beautiful souls (灵魂), with so much love in them.

What do astronauts eat in space? Do they eat special food? What will astronauts eat when a space trip takes
years?
“Lots of fresh vegetables,” says Dr. Janet Williams, whose team have spent the last 10 years learning how to
grow plants in a space station. And it’s a good thing that she has already started her work, because space gardening
can be really hard.
As usual, astronaut George White looked into the closed plant room. He had planted Dr. Williams’s quick-
growing seedlings in it, but none of the stems were growing. He opened the room to check and found the problem.
The stems weren’t growing upward and the roots
weren’t growing downward. On Earth, gravity helps a plant’s stems and roots to find “up” and “down”.
However, in the space station, there was no gravity.Dr. Williams suggested a solution: give the plants more light, as plants also use sunlight to find their way. And
it worked. When the plants had more light, the stems turned up and the roots went down.
Now Dr. Williams was free to worry about the next problem: Would her baby plants live to flower? Can we
grow food on a space journey?
Many plants died in the space station. Dr. Williams thought she knew the reason: the space plants were hungry
for air. Plants live by taking up CO2 from the air. Since a plant uses it up in the air around, the plant needs moving
air to bring more CO2 close to its surface. On Earth, the air is always moving. Gravity pulls down cold air, and
warm air rises. And with these air movements, plants get enough CO2.
Many earlier experiments with plants in space had used closed rooms. Dr. Williams tried a new greenhouse
that had a fan to keep the air move. The plants loved it. They flowered and even produced more seeds. Using Dr.
Williams’s method, astronaut George completed the first seed-to-seed experiment in space, and moved one plant
closer to a garden in space.
“And this,” says Dr. Williams, “is good news for long-term space travel.”
27. Why have Dr. Williams’s team tried to grow plants in space?
A. To produce fresh air for astronauts.
B. To help astronauts relax themselves.
C. To provide food for long space journeys.
D. To make the space garden more beautiful.
28. How did light help solve the problem mentioned in Paragraph 3?
A. It caused the gravity to change.
B. It encouraged the plants to grow faster.
C. It helped the plants to grow in the right direction.
D. It showed the astronauts where to plant vegetables.
29. What does the underlined word “it” in Paragraph 7 refer to?
A. The moving air. B. The fan.
C. The closed room. D. The space.
【答案】27. C 28. C 29. A
【解析】
本文主要介绍了威廉博士和他的团队为了给太空旅行提供新鲜蔬菜,开展太空种植植物的研究。
【27题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第一段和第二段“What do astronauts eat in space…in a space station”可知在太空种植
物是为了给太空旅行提供食物,故选C。【28题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章第四段”give the plants more light, as plants also use sunlight to find their way. And it
worked. When the plants had more light, the stems turned up and the roots went d own.可知,光线帮助植物按正
确的方向生长。故选C。
【29题详解】
推理判断题。根据前文“Many earlier experiments with plants in space had used closed rooms. Dr.Williams tried
a new greenhouse that had a fan to keep the air move.”许多早期的太空植物实验都是在封闭的房间里进行的。
威廉姆斯博士尝试了一种新的温室,它有一个风扇来保持空气流通。可知此处“it”指的是移动的空气the
moving air,故选A。
D
How do you feel about nature? After spending hours indoors, do you feel better when you visit your local
park? I believe the answer must be “YES”. We should walk into nature so that we can enjoy the natural beauties
around.
Most people think that nature is good for our bodies and brains. However, humans are spending more time
inside and less time outside. For example, the number of visitors to Canada’s national parks is getting lower every
year. And in countries such as the USA, only 10% of teenagers spend time outside every day. Many doctors feel
that this is a problem in the twenty-first century.
As a result, some doctors are studying the connection between nature and health: one example of this is the
work of Dr. Matilda in Sweden. The doctor gave people a math test. During the test, their heart rates (心率) were
fast. After the test, one group of people sat in a 3D-virtual-reality (虚拟现实) room for fifteen minutes with
pictures and sounds of nature. Their heart rates were slower than people’s in the other group.
The virtual touch with nature helped them feel more relaxed. The natural world allows our brains to rest and
slow down, and can trigger positive feelings and a sense of peace. Being in nature can leave us feeling happier and
less stressed. Another good example of how nature is good for health comes from Canada. In Toronto, researchers
studied 31,000 people living in the city. In general, they found that healthier people lived near parks.
Because of studies like these, some countries and cities want nature to be part of people’s everyday life. In
Dubai, for example, there are plans for a new shopping mall with a large garden so shoppers can relax outside with
trees, plants and water. And South Korea is another good example: it has new forests near its cities and around 13
million people visit these forests every year. Exposure to nature has been thought to be necessary for brain
development in children. In Switzerland, “forest schools” are popular. Schoolchildren study their subjects in theforests and do lots of exercise outside. So after building cities for so long, perhaps it’s now time to start rebuilding
nature.
Nature holds a special kind of energy: it is pure and wild and spirit-renewing. In a word, the human being
cannot live without nature, and Mother Nature makes us grow stronger.
30. What does Paragraph 2 mainly talk about?
A. Teenagers’ problem in the 21st century.
B. How much time we spend outdoors.
C. Visiting your local parks.
D. Feeling about nature.
31. What do the results of the studies show?
A. More and more Canadians will live near parks.
B. The math test is difficult and makes people nervous.
C. Nature can help people feel more relaxed and be healthier.
D. People’s heart rates get slower in a 3D-virtual-reality room.
32. What can we infer from the last sentence of the passage?
A. Nature is more important than cities.
B. Country life is healthier than city life.
C. People have lived in the cities for so long.
D. Nature should be part of people’s daily life.
33. What can we learn from the passage?
A. 31,000 healthier people live near parks in Toronto.
B. A new shopping mall with a large garden will be built in Dubai.
C. 10% of teenagers spend time in national parks every day in the USA.
D. About 13 million schoolchildren visit new forests every year in South Korea.
【答案】30. B 31. C 32. D 33. B
【解析】

四、阅读短文,根据短文内容回答问题。(共 10 分,每小题 2 分)
Food as Communication
We usually understand when someone speaks or writes to us, and many gestures and facial expressions have
meanings, too. But have you ever considered what and how we eat as a form of communication? In many
cultures, people sit together and share food with each other, which is a common tradition that can promote (促进)
unity(统一,和谐) and trust. Food can also play an important role in a family or culture’s celebrations. The foods
we eat—and when and how we eat them—are often special to a particular culture or may even differ between
areas within one country.
In most cultures, bread represents delicious food. It is also one of the most commonly shared foods in the
world. Sharing bread is a common symbol ( 象 征 ) of companionship and togetherness. In fact, the word
companion comes from the Latin roots com- (together) and panis (bread). In many cultures, people also
celebrate birthdays and marriages with decorated cakes that are cut and shared among the guests. Early forms of
cake were simply a kind of bread, so this tradition has its roots in the custom of sharing bread.
There are foods like bread in other cultures. In Greece, people share a special cake called vasilopita. A coin
is baked into the cake, which stands for success in the New Year for the person who receives it. Most of the foods
eaten during the Chinese New Year have many different meanings. Sometimes this is based on their shapes. For
example, long noodles symbolize long life. The symbolism can also be based on the sound of the word in
Chinese. For example, people give out oranges because the word for “orange” sounds like the word for “wealth”.
In many cultures, round foods such as grapes, bread, and moon cakes are eaten at welcome celebrations tosymbolize family unity.
Food is basic and necessary for life, so it is not surprising that it is such an important part of different
cultures around the world. The food people eat during celebrations may have a long history and can symbolize
many things, but sharing food is one custom that almost all humans have in common.
34. Why do people sit together and share food with each other?
____________________________________________________________________
35. How do people celebrate birthdays and marriages in many cultures?
____________________________________________________________________
36. What are eaten at welcome celebrations to symbolize family unity?

【答案】34. Because it can promote unity and trust
35. People cut and share decorated cakes among the guests
36. Round foods such as grapes, bread, and moon cakes
37. People have different foods to symbolize different things in different cultures

among the guests.”,可知人们通过“切蛋糕并一同分享”来庆祝结婚和生日,故填People cut and share
decorated cakes among the guests。
【36题详解】
根据“In many cultures, round foods such as grapes, bread, and moon cakes are eaten at welcome celebrations to
symbolize family unity.”,可知在许多文化中,人们在欢迎会上吃圆形食物,如葡萄、面包和月饼,象征着家庭团结。故填Round foods such as grapes, bread, and moon cakes。
