Arbeia Roman Fort (城堡) and Museum
Location and History
Arbeia Roman Fort is situated on Hadrian’s Wall. It was the most important structure built by the Romans in
Britain, and now it has been a World Heritage (遗产) Site. Built around AD 160, Arbeia Roman Fort was the
military supply base for the soldiers who were stationed along Hadrian’s Wall. The fort has been gradually
uncovered and some original parts have been revealed. There are reconstructions that show how Arbeia Roman Fort
would have looked.
The Reconstructions
The reconstructions of the Commanding Officer’s house and soldiers’ quarters are strikingly different. The
accommodation for soldiers is dark and uncomfortable, while the Commanding Officer’s house is spacious and
luxurious, with courtyards with fountains for him and his family to enjoy.
The Museum
Visit the museum and see many objects that were found at Arbeia. They are historically important and show
what daily life was really like at that time. You will see weapons, tools, jewellery, and so on. You can also discover
how the Romans buried their dead and see tombstones (墓碑) which survive to this day. There is a “hands-on” area
allowing visitors to dig on a certain site and study their findings with the help of museum staff. You can piece
together pottery (陶器), or try writing just as the Romans would have done. For children, they can build this ancient
Roman fort with building blocks by themselves.

James T. Green thought he was having a panic attack.
He took a break from work to walk around the block during a stressful day, and noticed he felt out of breath
walking up a slight slope. “This isn’t normal, ” Green thought. He had become a regular biker in recent months and
wasn’t exactly out of shape. He sat down at his desk, and looked at the Apple Watch on his wrist. His heart rate was
through the roof, and the Heart Watch app he was using to check his pulse(脉搏)was flashing warnings. Maybe it
was something more serious, he thought.
Although he had blood clots(血栓)in his lungs a few years ago, he had been taking medication, and doctors
said that it was an unusual condition for someone in their mid-20s. Still, the symptoms (症 状)this time were much
less serious, and he was feeling stressed, so his mind didn’t automatically jump to blood clots. Green’s doctor told
him it sounded like anxiety. But then he showed her his heart rate recorded by the Apple Watch.
“This is my normal heart rate, ” Green told her, pointing to the graph in the app. “This is where my heart is
now. There’s something wrong. ”The doctor ordered a CT scan. The blood clots in his left lung had returned. An ambulance rushed Green to the
emergency room, where he was pumped full of blood thinners. He didn’t need surgery this time, but doctors told
him that if he had waited, a clot could have killed him.
Green isn’t the only person who has discovered a serious health condition after seeing heart-rate data on a
smartwatch. And he won’t be the last. Presently, smartwatches from Apple to Fitbit and others can tell you your
heart rate and track your workouts. But these companies want to go beyond the basics by developing ways to tell
you when something is wrong. In fact, it’s already happening.
24. What is not normal for Green this time?
A. He breathed with difficulty.
B. He worked out less often.
C. He had a heart attack.
D. He was out of shape.
25. Which of the following confirmed his serious problem?
A. He himself. B. His doctor.
C. The CT scan. D. The Apple Watch.
26. What really caused the symptoms of Green this time?
A. Tiredness. B. Anxiety.
C. Work stress. D. Blood clots.
27. What might be discussed in the following paragraph?
A. Apple’s new study on smartwatches.
B. The tips on how to buy a smartwatch.
C. Other cases where smartwatches save lives.
D. The application of smartwatches in health care.

In today’s difficult economic time, it’s natural to rethink your goal of studying abroad. Does the benefit
outweigh the cost? The answer, in fact, is yes, when you look at the road ahead.
When the economy becomes more challenged, competition for the workforce increases, and employers look
for employees with the best credentials(资历). Having an overseas degree—from a university where strong English
skills are required — can make all the difference. The added expertise of a foreign degree, along with more cultural
experience, can make you more qualified for many jobs.
A 50-year study of 3, 400 students shows that studying abroad is usually a defining moment in a youngperson’s life and continues to impact the participant’s life for years after the experience.
82% said that they acquired skills that influenced their career path. 70% stated that it ignited(点燃)an interest
in a career direction that they pursued after the experience.
And the effect on one’s career can be equally strong. A study by the Queensland, Australia government
showed:
61% of employers stated overseas studying experience was positive on a graduate resume. 72% of employers
felt that a second language made a graduate a more attractive employee.
Still, there’s the question of how to pay for studying overseas. But the cost doesn’t have to be as high as you
think. Scholarships may be available to cover some or all of these costs. And, there are plenty of ways to further
offset(抵消)the cost — through financial tips, advice and grants(补助金).
28. The second study shows that studying abroad .
A. helps one to get a job
B. affects one’s whole life
C. affects one’s career direction
D. helps one to make more money
29. The author tries to prove his idea by .
A. giving examples
B. answering questions
C. listing facts and numbers
D. offering advice and solutions
30. What does the author think about the university fees?
A. Financial tips must increase the university fees.
B. Scholarships can cover some of the costs.
C. Money is a serious problem for studying abroad.
D. There are few ways for the students to earn money.
31. What does the author intend to tell us in the passage?
A. Studying abroad is easy.
B. Studying abroad is rewarding.
C. The effects of studying abroad.
D. The problems with studying abroad.
DHaving a microchip implanted in a man’s brain may be common in sci-fi movie plots, but it may soon become
an actual possibility.
Elon Musk, founder of SpaceX and co-founder of electric car maker Tesla — has been working on this
technology. On Aug 28, Musk gave a livestream demonstration of the chip, which was implanted into the head of a
pig named Gertrude.
The chip, developed by Musk’s company, is the size of a coin. But don’t let its size fool you. The tiny chip has
over 3, 000 electrodes (电极) attached to flexible threads, which can monitor about 1, 000 neurons (神经元). It
collects neural signals from an area of the brain, and then transmits those signals wirelessly to nearby computers. In
the livestream, Gertrude could be seen walking around her pen sniffing the ground while a monitor showed her
brain activity.
Though the technology is still in its early stage, it is encouraging for humans. This technology “would solve a
lot of brain injuries”, which allows the human brain to combine with an artificial intelligence, Musk said.
When the device can be applied to humans, its main goal will be to help those who have mobility(移动性)
issues, such as those suffering from paralysis. Musk hopes this technology could also be used to help those with
hearing and eyesight issues and one day lead to a cure for epilepsy (癫痫).
Although such a device could, in principle, repair those problems, putting it into practice is by no means a
piece of cake. Currently, the device can transmit signals from about 500 neurons in the pig’s brain. Compared to 80
billion neurons in a human brain, this number is tiny. And to cover the whole human brain also means the
electrodes have to be much smaller.
Also, implanting the chip into the brain poses a potential danger. There is a risk of the immune system
attacking this foreign body.
Right now, the hope of controlling the brain via controlling a few neurons seems overly optimistic. “There are
many technological challenges. . . to overcome before Neuralink can put its devices to the purposes, ” Yuan
Lanfeng, an associate professor at the University of Science and Technology of China, told China Daily.
32. What do we know about Elon Musk’s microchip according to the first three paragraphs?
A. It is able to collect wireless signals.
B. It was inspired by sci-fi movie plots.
C. It has no more than 1, 000 electrodes.
D. It is tiny in size but powerful in function.
33. What is the major goal of the microchip in human applications?A. To develop a cure for epilepsy.
B. To monitor animals’ brain activity.
C. To help people with difficulty in moving freely.
D. To contribute to the research in AI technologies.
34. What do Paragraphs 6-7 mainly talk about?
A. Potential problems in applying the chip to humans.
B. Key differences between pigs’ and humans’ brains.
C. The amount of time and money implanting the chip could cost.
D. How the immune system is the major obstacle to the implant.
35. How does Yuan Lanfeng feel about implanting the chip into the human brain?
A. Excited. B. Optimistic.
C. Cautious. D. Worried.

Ways to Teach Kids Good Behavior
Kids can be hard to handle sometimes. When a child acts out, you may be unsure how to handle it effectively.
In most cases, you don’t have to make use of punishment. 3 6
Tell the children you want to change your behavior. If you feel that you used ineffective strategies before, it
may be worth talking about it to the kids. 3 7 Apologizing for the past misbehavior also sets a good example.
38 Unmet needs can lead to misbehavior. Meet the needs, and misbehavior may not happen. When a child
expresses a need, acknowledge it, either meeting it now or telling them your plan to meet that need soon. Pay
attention when a child says or hints ( 暗 示 ) at things like“I’m hungry”, “I’m tired” and “I’m upset”.
Keep your expectations reasonable. 39 Kids are going to be annoying sometimes, and they won’t always
be little angels. They might not be able to do everything you ask of them, no matter how hard they try.
Be clear about your expectations. 40 Let them know what you expect from them, and give reminders as
needed.
A. Offer praise when the child does something well.
B. Meet the children’s needs when they say something.
C. This helps them recognize that you will behave differently.
D. Kids can’t follow the rules if they don’t know what they are.
E. Let them know that you see them behaving better and that you appreciate it.F. Some kids, especially younger ones, have limited self-control and attention spans.
G. Instead, talking to the child and setting positive expectations can make a big difference.

It was time to go home. “Remember to work on your class speeches for homework, ”Miss Walker called, as
everyone started talking and packing their schoolbags. Jenny felt sick. She hated having to read aloud in class. She
was sure everyone got really bored listening to her. Once, when Jenny was reading out her holiday diary, Lee was
even looking at his watch, a silver and blue one which seemed just magical.
Jenny watched Lee walk ahead of her as they left school. He seemed so clever, and he had a certain sort of
shining confidence. He was just one of those people who were good at everything. Jenny sighed. As she turned the
corner, she saw Lee’s watch lying right in the middle of the path.
Jenny knew she should just pick it up and return it to him, but she didn’t want to run after him. Jenny bent
down quickly, picked up the watch and ran home. On arriving home, Jenny put it on almost without thinking. She
was surprised it fitted so well. She walked to the mirror and started practicing her speech. Words just flooded out of
her. “I’m going to talk about swimming. I have been lucky. I’ve won lots of competitions. But when I’m in a race,
I’m not really thinking about winning. I’m just loving the feeling of being in the water. . . ”Jenny laughed with
excitement. She walked across the room. She suddenly seemed to have a certain sort of confidence. Turning back to
the mirror, Jenny saw a flash of light from the watch in the glass. The flashes of silver seemed almost magical. So
maybe Lee’s watch really did have something magic.
The next day, as the lesson began, Miss Walker asked who was going to be brave and go first. Nobody moved.
Jenny slowly raised her arm. Before Miss Walker could say anything, there was a shout from behind. “She’s stolenmy watch! ” Lee said angrily, “It went missing at school yesterday. ”
注意: 续写词数应为150左右。
Everybody was fixing their eyes on Jenny, waiting for an explanation.
At that moment, Miss Walker smiled and asked the class to listen to Jenny’s speech first.

【文章大意】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了“第三文化孩子”这一概念, 以及这种跨文化经历给孩子带

56. 【解析】totally。考查副词。修饰形容词different, 应用副词, total对应的副词形式totally, 意为“完全
地, 全部地”。
57. 【解析】was used。考查时态和语态。根据句中in the 1960s可知, 应用一般过去时, 句中third-culture
kid和use之间为被动关系, 故应用一般过去时的被动语态, 且句子主语The term “third-culture kid”是单数。
故填was used。
58. 【解析】researching。考查非谓语动词。此处是状语从句的省略, 句子主语she与research之间为逻辑
上的主动关系, 故应用现在分词researching。

常会取得优异的学习成绩。benefit from意为“从……中获益”。

they的反身代词为themselves。
62. 【解析】to develop。考查非谓语动词。句中涉及固定句型find it hard to do sth. , 句中it为形式宾语, 真
正的宾语是后面的不定式结构。故填to develop。

回到自己的祖国容易得多。根据句意和句中关键词than可知, 应用比较级。故填easier。
64. 【解析】 where。考查定语从句。分析句子结构可知, 句子为定语从句, 先行词为country, 在从句中作
地点状语, 故应用关系副词where引导从句。

【参考范文】
Everybody was fixing their eyes on Jenny, waiting for an explanation. Dead silence suddenly fell. So
embarrassed was Jenny that she felt her face burning and her mind going blank. Despite the unwillingness to admit
it, she had actually made the most shameful mistake. Jenny was thrown into a dilemma whether to tell the truth or
not. Considering the well-prepared speech and the magic of the watch, she plucked up her courage, uttering in a
begging tone, “But Miss Walker, could I deliver the speech first? ” All the classmates fell into tremendous curiosity,
eager to witness her performance.
At that moment, Miss Walker smiled and asked the class to listen to Jenny’s speech first. Overwhelmed with
excitement, Jenny confidently made her way to the platform, words flooding out of her fluently. Never before in her
life had she delivered such a terrific speech. Praises spread around the classroom and even Miss Walker nodded
with approval. Feeling incredibly refreshed, Jenny finished her speech, which was greeted with thunderous
applause. Relieved, Jenny exposed the truth and especially the magic of the watch. “But it’s just an ordinary watch
without any magic. ” announced Lee. Not until then did Jenny realize the real source of confidence comes from his
effort rather than the watch.
