阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。
A
,
On today’s blog post I’ll be talking about my favorite magazines. I love reading books &
magazines, and I’m learning so many useful tips about healthy living, daily life, etc.
Women’s Health
Women’s Health has a unique content. You can find various interesting information about
healthy living or exercises you can do at home. I also love their writers because they explain every
topic so simple that you can even understand biological articles.
Healthy Food Guide
I totally recommend it to everyone because it has lots of useful information about being
healthy during your daily life. In this magazine, you can find articles about foods you often eat but
don’t have much idea what it contains or if they’re healthy. If you are searching for new diets, this
magazine gives you all the information.
Time Out
Time Out is a well-known magazine and it’s free in my city. Every time I see a Time Out
magazine, I get it because it has lots of useful tips. I got Time Out London when I was in London,
and I discovered new restaurants, galleries, museums, and events. This magazine has various
information about the city life. For example, it gives you the events that are happening near you. It
gives you tips for the railway stations and other transportation choices.
La Cucina Italiana
If you love cooking Italian food, this magazine is for you! It has lots of recipes and also
restaurant reviews. You can also find popular restaurants near you in this magazine. I’ve also read
articles by famous chefs from my city.
1. What can we find in Healthy Food Guide?
A. Ways to keep fit. B. Tips on cooking.
C. Different eating habits. D. Information of new restaurants.
2. What can we read to find comments on restaurants?
A. Time Out. B. Women’s Health. C. Healthy Food Guide. D. La
Cucina Italiana.
3. What can we learn about the author?
A. He lives in London. B. He loves and enjoys life.

When Christopher Moore isn’t jumping rope, shooting baskets or playing the board gameChutes and Ladders, the 8-year-old can often be found at home using his fighting skills, protecting
the world from would-be enemies. “I’m trying to save the other people from being hurt,” he said
of his Avatar video game adventures.
The Moore household, in Birmingham, Alabama, enjoys a good mix of at-home
entertainment, something they are doing more and more during these precarious financial times,
“They’re always in competition,” the boys’ mother, Lisa Moore, said with a laugh. “It keeps them
busy. It keeps them occupied.”
Numbers show that at-home entertainment is doing better than ever, flying in the financial
face of so many industries that are struggling in this difficult time.
The gaming experience, too, has changed with the years. Five years ago, online gaming was
considered a one-person activity. And although games can still be played alone, the social factor is
growing quickly. “Over a third of families will play games together online.” said David Williams,
who heads up the Kids and Family Games Group. “They’re staying home more, and they’re using
games to connect with one another.”
When it comes to the games children play, many parents such as Lisa Moore may choose to
sit it out. But Christina Vercelletto, a senior editor at Parenting magazine, says that engaging in the
games with them can do a family good. “It can be an opportunity to bond with your kids,” she
said. If parents express interest, kids “will probably be heated. And you’ll get a little window into
what has them so excited.” Plus, by playing the games, parents can determine how comfortable
they are with what their kids are doing.
For those who want to get the opinions of others, Christina Vercelletto points out that the
Entertainment Software Rating Board provides feedback and that parents are always learning from
one another on discussion boards.
4. What does the underlined word “precarious” in Paragraph 2 probably mean?
A. Appropriate. B. Precious. C. Stable. D. Tough.
5. Which of the following shows the benefit of at-home entertainment?
A. Controlling children’s behavior. B. Helping solve financial trouble.
.
C Making a good family relationship. D. Forming a sense of independence.
6. What should parents do while their kids are playing games according to Christina?
.
A Join in. B. Sit out. C. Watch out. D. Walk
around.
7. What is the main topic of the text?
A. Family relationship. B. At-home entertainment.
C. Benefits of playing games. D. Ways to connect with kids.

Every summer artists perform at Fringe (边缘) Festivals around the world. Fringe Festivals
are a celebration of strange art. They have all kinds of performers—from dancers, musicians and
actors to everything in between. The shows give artists a chance to create unusual art. For festivalgoers, each show is a time to experience something different.
The first Fringe Festival was held in Edinburgh, Scotland in 1947. That was also the year of
the first Edinburgh International Festival. Artists from around the world traveled to Scotland for
the Edinburgh International Festival. They performed at arts centers throughout the city. Eight
local theater companies did not receive an invitation, however. In response, they performed at
smaller spaces around Edinburgh. These artists performed wherever they could, including
churches and even on the street. They started their own cultural event and named it the Edinburgh
Festival Fringe.
What started as an alternative to the mainstream has now become the world’s largest arts
festival. Today, there are hundreds of Fringe Festivals taking place around the world. The one in
Washington, D.C., called the Capital Fringe Festival, is in its tenth year. It was held in the month
of July.
Julianne Brienza founded the Capital Fringe Festival. She went to a school for the performing
arts, but now sees herself mainly as an organizer of the festival. Brienza believes that fringe
performance art is special and can have a powerful effect.
The Capital Fringe Festival takes place in different locations throughout the D. C. area. Some
performances happen in traditional theaters. Others happen in unusual settings like old, empty
buildings or stores after business hours are over.
Brienza says the purpose of Fringe festivals is to explore the limits of art in unique
environments. Since 2006, the event has made more than $1. 7 million. It is the second largest
Fringe Festival in the U. S. and its popularity has grown every year. The Edinburgh Festival
Fringe continues throughout the month of August.
8. Who may be interested in Fringe Festivals?
A. Strange art lovers. B. Professional artists. C. Classical musicians. D.
Traditional culture supporters.
9. What does Paragraph 2 mainly talk about?
A. Why Edinburgh became the global art center. B. How the first Fringe Festival came
into being.
C. When the Edinburgh International Festival was held. D. Where the Edinburgh Festival Fringe
was celebrated.
10. What can we know about the Capital Fringe Festival?
A. It is the world’s largest arts festival. B. It has no fixed places for celebration.
C. It can never be accepted by the public. D. It has a longer history than other
festivals.
11. Which of the following may Brienza probably agree about Fringe Festivals?
A. They raise people’s love of festivals. B. They limit the development of arts.
C. Formal arts are looked down upon. D. Chances are offered to unusual arts.
DSome scientists have traced the increase in earthquakes, especially in areas not known for the
presence of fault lines or past seismic (地震的) activity, to human actions. The idea of humans
causing earthquakes may seem strange at first. After all, you can run around your backyard and
jump up and down as you want, and the ground isn’t going to start shaking. However, scientists
have identified a variety of large scale human activities that can result in earthquakes.
Scientists have confirmed over 700 places where human activities have caused earthquakes
over the last century. While many human-related earthquakes are mild and don’t cause much
damage, some of them can be serious and dangerous. In fact, scientists believe human activity has
caused earthquakes with magnitudes as high as 7.9 on the Richter scale.
Scientists believe most human-related earthquakes are the result of mining. As companies
drill deeper and deeper below Earth’s surface to get natural resources, holes left behind can cause
instability that leads to collapses that cause earthquakes. Another human activity leading to
earthquakes is fracking (水力压裂) for oil and gas, including the high pressure waste water
processing that usually goes with fracking. In this process, water, sand and chemicals are pressed
underground under high pressure to break rocks to release natural resources.
Building large dams can also cause earthquakes. For example, about 80, 000 people died in
China in 2008 as a result of a 7.9-magnitude earthquake caused by 320 million tons of water that
had been collected in the Zipingpu Reservoir after a large dam was built over a known fault line.
These aren’t the only human activities that can result in earthquakes, though. Scientists point
out that earthquakes can also be caused by other human activities, such as construction of
skyscrapers and nuclear explosions.
12. What does the underlined part “fault lines” in Paragraph 1 refer to?
A. Regions with active human actions. B. Places associated with natural
balance.
C. Zones where natural resources are rich. D. Areas where earthquakes tend to
happen.
13. What do mining and oil producing have in common?
A. They break the balance of nature. B. They destroy the stability of rocks.
C. They use high pressure to get resources. D. They do much damage to Earth’s
surface.
14. What can be inferred from Paragraph 4?
A. The 2008 earthquake is the worst in history. B. Construction of dams should be
stopped.
C. Tons of water must cause earthquakes. D. The location of a dam matters much.
15. What does the text mainly tell us?
A. Nature punishes humans by means of earthquakes. B. Progress has been made on
earthquake research.
C. Humans are to blame for some earthquakes. D. Earthquakes are no longer nature-made.

47. 阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。
Tim Robinson, a former junior officer of the British Army, was on holiday in Bridport,
Dorset, a town in England. While enjoying a walk down the beach, Tim slipped on a piece of
seaweed lying in the sand and fell, breaking his leg.
Unfortunately, Tim did not bring his cell phone with him when he left for his walk. No one
was in site, but as Tim lay helpless he remembered his military training and tried to think about
what was around to help him. After struggling around on the beach, the pain became too much to
handle. He stopped and thought about what to do.
With no phone and no one around, and with his leg hurting greatly, Tim had a decision to
make. He could either continue this way in pain and hope that someone happened to see him, or hecould try something else. It didn’t matter that his leg had made him partially immobile, Tim still
had the ability to crawl (爬行), and so he did.
The choice was easy, but the crawl was tough. Tim told the Daily Mail, “After I crawled to
about a mile-and-a-quarter away from the car park, I started flashing my torch in SOS and
spinning it over my head to create a Buzz-Saw signal which is a way of attracting helicopters in
the armed forces.”
No one seemed to be around. At least, no one could read Tim’s signals for help. Once again,
he had to either stay where he was and wait for help or get moving. In his mind he had no choice.
There was no response to begin with, so he crawled for five minutes and covered about 50 meters
before making the same signal three times. Most people couldn’t imagine crawling for any
distance with a broken leg, but Tim wasn’t about to give up.
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。
Tim finally got a response from the distance.
