While smartphones stand accused of a variety of crimes, these pocket computers can certainly be a force for good. Your
phone is always with you, making it the perfect device to push you into a more beneficial way of living. Here are some of the
best apps that can help.
Habitica
Habitica turns the goal of forming good habits into a game, with its own characters and scoring. It’s a lot of fun, and the
app also lets you build habits with friends and family. In addition to regular repeating habits, you can add a more general to­do
list, and the rewards you get can be customized too—you could treat yourself to a meal out or an extra hour of games.
Smoke Free
If you’ve got a specific habit in mind you’ll usually find specific apps to help, like Smoke Free. If you’re determined to
give up smoking, this is one of the most comprehensive apps for giving you that extra push you need to make a permanent
change. The app offers a host of useful features to people wanting to go smoke­free: the ability to see your progress over time,
charts showing how your health is improving, day ­ by ­ day encouragement, and some advice on techniques for giving up
smoking.
MyFitnessPal
You can find tons of health and fitness apps for your phone, but MyFitnessPal stands out not just because it is easy to use,
but because it makes practical suggestions for you. It can take in a host of data, from the calories(卡路里) you’re taking in to
the number of swims you’re doing per week, and offer reports on calorie consumption and macronutrient( 大量营养素)
breakdown.
1.What can Habitica help you to do?
A.Win a tough game.
B.Start a lasting friendship.
C.Find a fancy restaurant.
D.Develop a pleasant habit.

It took multiple weddings for Christine Law to realize what she needed to do. In the summer of 2014, her schedule was
packed with friends’ marriage celebrations—flower­filled occasions that got her thinking, “Where do all the flowers go after
the party?” More often than not, they were thrown away. Law was confident she could find a better use for them.
By August, she had a plan:convince couples and companies hosting events to donate their flowers, which she would pick
up and deliver within 48 hours to seniors across the city. She wanted to bring beauty into the lives of the elderly. She drew on
her experience through being a volunteer in non­profit institutions in order to set up her own organization, which she called
Floranthropie. Not having enough bouquets(花束) for all 150 people of a health center, Law asked the staff to provide a list of
patients who needed cheering up most. “The first woman I approached thought it was a mistake, and that the flowers couldn’
t possibly be for her,” says Law. “I said they were a gift, and we talked for a half hour.”
In addition to health centers, Floranthropie focuses on community groups devoted to the elderly. Laëtitia Thélème is a
volunteer for Les Petits Fières, an organization that aims to help the elderly who don’t have a support system. The group
receives a dozen or so bouquets from Floranthropie monthly, and then redistributes them. “Our motto is ‘flowers before
bread’,”says Thélème.“We don’t focus on primary care, but rather on nourishing(滋养) the spirit. Floranthropie helps us do
that. It’s amazing what a big difference a small bouquet can make.”
In the beginning, most of Floranthropie’s donations came through word of mouth. These days, Law receives messages
from strangers via her organization’s Facebook page and has connected with corporations and flower wholesalers. Law hopes to
expand Floranthropie nationally, but at this point is happy to be able to oversee each delivery personally.
4.What made Christine Law set up Floranthropie?

C.It is doing something of great importance.
D.It should cooperate with more non­profit institutions.
7.What is the best title for the text?

B.Don’t Throw Flowers Away
C.Special Delivery Makes Your Day
D.Brighten Seniors’ Lives with Flowers
C
You try to keep your eyes wide open while watching a basketball match or a wonderful firework show in case you might
miss something exciting in just the blink of an eye. But in fact, humans blink about 15 times per minute on average. Have you
ever missed anything because you blinked? Probably not. Why is that?
According to a new study published in the journal Current Biology in September, our brain has the ability to skip the
temporary darkness when we blink. It can keep visual information for a short period of time and then put it together to form an
image without interruption.
In order to understand how this works, a group of scientists at the German Primate Center and the University Medical
Center Go..ttingen in Germany conducted an experiment. In the study, the participants were asked to look at patterns on a
screen whose direction could be interpreted in different ways, such as horizontally(水平地) or vertically(垂直地). When one
pattern was about to disappear and the next one was about to come, the participants had to indicate the direction that the next
pattern would appear.
The researchers found that when the directions of two patterns didn’t match, the area in our brain which is responsible for
visual memory was activated. This same area showed less activity when two patterns were in the same direction.
“The medial prefrontal cortex(前额叶皮层) adjusts current visual information with previously obtained information, and
thus enables us to perceive the world with more stability, even when we briefly close our eyes to blink,” Caspar Schwiedrzik
explained in Science Daily. He is the first author of the study and also a scientist at the German Primate Center.
8.We don’t miss anything when blinking because our brain can ________.
A.deal with the missing image
B.remember all that we see
C.imagine what our eyes miss
D.put our pieces of memory together
9.What does the underlined word “it” in Paragraph 2 refer to?
A.Our brain.
B.Visual information.
C.Current Biology.
D.The temporary darkness.
10.What do we know about the experiment?
A.The two patterns appear at the same time.
B.Visual memory can be more activated by similarity.
C.Participants can interpret patterns differently.
D.The different directions activated visual memory.
11.What would be the best title for this passage?
A.The Brain’s Structure
B.The Brain’s Activated Patterns
C.The Brain’s Special Skill
D.The Brain’s Orientation

In the story of the Crow and the Pitcher from Aesop’s Fables, a thirsty crow drops stones into a narrow jar to raise the low
level of water inside so he can take a drink.
【公众号:实用视界 +VX:18071191557】
第3 页共88 页
Now scientists have evidence to back up that story. Crows actually do understand how to make water displacement(排水
量) work to their advantage, experiments show. The results suggest that the birds are, at least in some aspects, as smart as first­
graders.
Researchers, led by Sarah Jelbert at the University of Cambridge, presented six crows with tubes containing water. Inside
the tubes, a worm or a piece of meat on a piece of wood was floating, just out of reach of the crow. In front of the tubes, the
researchers arranged several rubber erasers that would sink, and some plastic objects that would float. The crows found out that
they could drop the erasers into the tubes in order to raise the water level and get their snack.
However, the_birds_handled_awkwardly in experiments in which they could choose to drop objects in either a wide tube
or a narrow one to get a snack, the researchers said. Dropping objects into a narrow tube would lift the water level by a greater
amount and put the treat within reach after just two drops; while it took around seven drops to raise the snack to the same level
in the wide tube. The crows obviously didn’t realize this, and most of them went for the wide tube first.
Previous studies showed that chimps and human children can solve similar tasks. In a 2011 study, chimps and kids found
out that they could put water into a tube to reach a peanut that was floating in a small amount of water at the bottom.
12.How did the crows get the snack in Sarah’s experiment?
A.By breaking the tube.
B.By dropping in erasers.
C.By standing on the wood.
D.By removing the wood.
13.What does the underlined part “the birds handled awkwardly” mean in Paragraph 4?
A.They were unable to tell different shapes.
B.They dropped objects only into narrow tubes.
C.They were not aware of the snack at first sight.
D.They mostly avoided the easier way to get the snack.
14.What does the text mainly focus on?
A.Stories of Aesop’s Fables.
B.The development of crows.
C.Crows’ intelligence.
D.Human­animal communication.
15.What do we know about crows in the passage?
A.Crows are almost as clever as first­graders in some aspects.
B.Crows understand water displacement completely.
C.Chimps and children are much smarter than crows.
D.The story of the Crow and the Pitcher lacks evidence.

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。
You’re no doubt heard “less is more” over and over again. Less is better because it is good for your bank account and
your waistline(腰围). But in some areas of our lives, we can benefit from “more” instead of “less”. 16.________
Give more.
If you see something beautiful in someone, say it. Why are you holding back a compliment, a kind word of encouragement
or support or some well­deserved praise? Giving is a gift to the giver and the receiver. 17.________ Once you start doing this,
people will only want you around more.
Support others more.
Speaking of encouragement, who could use your support right now? 18.________ Someone who is struggling? Reach out!
You’ll be glad you did.
19.________
When we push back against things we don’t want(such as “I can’t believe Catherine copied my clothes again!”), our
resistance still holds us close to the thing that hurts us. When we are more accepting of life’s ups and downs, we find peace.
Find more role models.
Who do you want to be like? Find role models who inspire you. Read about them. Buy their books. Dive into online
interviews. 20.________
A life of richness can be defined in a million ways. And guess what? It’s waiting for you to live it—as soon as you open
yourself up.

It was raining hardly outside, which made it difficult for me to go home for lunch. Just as I was wondering what I should
eat at noon, I saw a familiar figure passed by our classroom. I rushed out and found it was my mother, already in fifties, which
brought me lunch in spite of the heavy rain. In China, many parents make great sacrifices for our children. But what had the
children done in return? All too often, most children just take it for granted that their parent should serve for them
unconditionally. My dear mum or dad, thank you very much for bringing me up. How shall I do for you?

Some of the best cycling routes in the world pass through the most beautiful scenery. Here are some of world’s best bike
routes for cyclists who are either up for having a good sweat or simply seeing the world without leaving an ugly carbon
footprint behind.
The Great Ocean Road, Victoria, Australia
If you like a challenge, take on this 243­kilometer windy road along Australia’s south­eastern coast. If a day is all you’
ve got, take the 60­kilometer route from Torquay to Bells Beach. There you’ll cycle through rural farmland, enjoy the sweeping
ocean views from cliff tops, and snake past the wetlands around Lake Connewarre.
The Udaipur City Tour, Rajasthan, India
Biking is arguably the best way to explore Udaipur, Venice of the East.
Cyclists often need to cycle past herdsmen and their goats and camels, sharing narrow, old pavements in this romantic
place. But surrounded by ancient castles and grand palaces, Udaipur brings about one of the best biking experiences, allowing
cyclists to truly discover rural India.
The Karakoram Highway, China­Pakistan
The Karakoram Highway is the highest international road in the world, reaching an altitude of 4, 717 meters near the
Khunjerab Pass. Starting in Kashgar, China, cyclists can travel up to 1, 200 kilometers on mostly unpaved roads, but the views
are as breathtaking as the riding.
The Route of the Hiawatha, Idaho­Montana, United States
Take your family out to Montana this summer and cycle along the most scenic disused railroad in the country. The railroad
turned bike trail turns into 24 kilometers of leisure biking that takes you over seven trestles(栈桥) and through 10 tunnels, with
the longest one, the Taft Tunnel, stretching for 2.7 kilometers.
1.In which tour can you enjoy the seaside scenery?
A.The Great Ocean Road.
B.The Udaipur City Tour.
C.The Karakoram Highway.
D.The Route of the Hiawatha.
2.What can you do on the Udaipur City Tour?
A.Go to Venice.
B.Feed wild animals.
C.Visit cultural relics.
D.Enjoy modern architectures.
3.What’s special about the Karakoram Highway?
【公众号:实用视界 +VX:18071191557】
第6 页共88 页
A.It is a totally undeveloped route.
B.It goes along an abandoned railway.
C.It owns the longest tunnel in the world.
D.It lies higher than any other international road in the world.

Nine months ago, I was packing my daughter’s backpack with new school supplies, wondering how I was going to send
her off to kindergarten. I stood on the playground, tears pouring down my face because I wasn’t ready for this first day of
kindergarten—but she was ready. Today I will be standing on the playground, once again with tears, because this precious time
went by too quickly. This week I realized that I never told you “thank you”. I don’t know how to express a mother’s thanks in
the way a teacher deserves.
We first met you at the open house the week before school started and I immediately knew you would be the type of
teacher we would appreciate forever. While the students lined up for the day, you touched each one on the shoulder as you
greeted them. If a student was having a tough morning, you quietly held his hand and walked him into the school.
I got to know you as I volunteered in the lunch room. You made sure your students were all ready for lunch before you
went on your own lunch break. You kept track of their big things and small things, because as a veteran kindergarten teacher,
you know that the small things are the big things. I loved the way you made each student feel special. You helped them fall in
love with school, which is so important at the start.
To all of the teachers in the world who are like you, I wish you knew how grateful parents are for you. We adore you,
respect you, and appreciate you. We don’t tell you enough—we probably don’t tell you ever. I wish we could take you with us
to the next 12 grades.

It is generally acknowledged that young people from poorer socioeconomic backgrounds tend to do less well in the
education system. In an attempt to help the children of poor families, a nationwide program called “Head Start” was started in
the US in 1965. A lot of money was poured into it. It took children into preschool institutions at the age of three and was
supposed to help them succeed in school. But the results have been disappointing, because the program began too late. Many
children who entered it at three were already behind their peers in language and intelligence and the parents were not involved
in the process. At the end of each day, “Head Start” children returned to the same disadvantaged home environment.
To improve the results, another program was started in Missouri that concentrated on parents as the child’s first teachers.
This program was based on research showing that working with the family is the most effective way of helping children get the
best possible start in life. The four­year study included 380 families who were about to have their first child and represented
different socioeconomic statuses, ages and family structures. The program involved trained educators visiting and working with
the parent or parents and the child. The program also gave the parents some guidance, and useful skills on child development.
At three, the children involved in the “Missouri” program were evaluated with the children selected from the same
socioeconomic backgrounds and family situations. The results were obvious. The children in the program were more advanced
in language development, problem solving and other intellectual skills than their peers. They performed equally well regardless
of socioeconomic backgrounds or family structures. The one factor that was found to affect the child’s development was the
poor quality of parent­child interaction. That interaction was not necessarily bad in poorer families.
The “Missouri” program compares quite distinctly with the “Head Start” program. Without a similar focus on parent
education and on the vital importance of the first three years, some evidence indicates that it will not be enough to overcome
educational unfairness.
8.What caused the failure of the “Head Start” program?
A.The large number of poor families.

Running is often tiring and a lot of hard work, but nothing beats the feeling you get after finishing a long workout around
the track.
But while it’s long been believed that endorphins(内啡肽)—chemicals in the body that cause happiness—are behind the
so­called “runner’s high”,a study suggested that there may be more to this phenomenon than we previously knew.
According to a recent study published by a group of scientists from several German universities, a group of chemicals
called endocannabinoids(内源性大麻素) may actually be responsible for this familiar great feeling.
To test this theory, the scientists turned to mice.
Both mice and humans release high levels of endorphins and endocannabinoids after exercise, along with many other
chemicals. After exercising on running wheels, the mice seemed happy and relaxed and displayed no signs of anxiety.
But after being given a drug to block their endorphins they changed. However, when their endocannabinoids were block
with a different drug, the runner’s high symptoms seemed to fade.
“The long­held notion of endorphins being responsible for the runner’s high is false. Endorphins are effective pain
relievers, but only when it comes to the pain in your body and muscles you feel after working out,” Patrick Lucas Austin
wrote on a science blog.
Similar studies are yet to be carried out on humans, but it’s already well known that exercise is a highly effective way to
get rid of stress or anxiety.
The UK’s National Health Service even prescribes(开药方) exercise for patients who are suffering from depression.
“Being depressed can leave you feeling low in energy, which might put you off being more active. Regular exercise can
boost your mood if you have depression, and it’s especially useful for people with mild to moderate(中等的) depression,” it
wrote on its website.
It seems like nothing can beat that feeling we get after a good workout, even if we don’t fully understand where it comes
from. At least if we’re feeling down, we know that all we have to do is put on our running shoes.
12.What did scientists from German universities recently discover?
A.Working out is a highly effective way to treat depression.
B.The runner’s high could be caused by endocannabinoids.
C.Endorphins may contribute to one’s high spirits after running.
D.The level of endorphins and endocannabinoids could affect one’s mood.
13.The scientists gave mice drugs in their experiment to ________.
A.find what reduces the runner’s high symptoms
B.see the specific symptoms of the runner’s high
C.identify what is responsible for the runner’s high
D.test what influences the level of endocannabinoids released
14.The underlined word “notion” in Paragraph 7 has the closest meaning to “________”.
A.effect
B.goal
C.question
D.belief
15.According to the UK’s National Health Service, regular workouts ________.
A.are the best way to treat depression

When I was three years old, I couldn’t speak. It was a strange reality that none of the doctors I visited could understand.
One day, I was shadowing(尾随) my mother. She found herself looking in a mirror, and through it our eyes met. She began
to speak to me through the reflection, and I slowly began to mimic(模仿) her mouth’s movements until I formed a word.
It turned out that I’m deaf in my left ear, and have a slight problem in my right. Being hard of hearing has been difficult,
but I’ve never lived in a state of self­hating sorrow. Imagine being able to shut out all sound as you lay your head down to
sleep by simply rolling over onto one side. That’s my reality when I sleep on my “good ear”,and it makes me feel like a
superhero sometimes.
People call my deaf side my “bad ear”,but when I wear my hearing aid, I have access to a range of features that some
other deaf people don’t. In cinemas, for example, with one click of a button I can enjoy a whole film as though it were
whispered to me from the mouths of the actors.

Owning a hearing aid hasn’t always felt good, however. On the first day I got my aid, when I was eight, I took it to school
for show and tell. As I explained how it worked to my classmates, a boy yelled out, “Aren’t those for old men?” At that
moment, I felt different. It took a long time for me to get over that sense of being so unlike my peers.
But it’s not just schoolkids who can make us deaf and hard­of­hearing people feel like burdens. Every video on social
media that lacks subtitles(字幕), for example, means an entire community of deaf people is unable to enjoy it. Completely deaf
people are excluded from enjoying many movies too, as subtitles in cinemas are almost impossible to find.
And with hearing aids costing around $2, 500 each, it can be hard for many people to afford to be able to listen to things
that others take for granted. As for me, I can listen to music, enjoy films, and catch conversations—I’m lucky. I’m deaf, but I
can still hear everything. I’ve been blessed with wonderful life experiences, and I am human. And when it comes to sleeping, I’
m even superhuman.
4.How does the author view his hearing difficulty?
A.It’s a disaster and causes him a lot of trouble.
B.It gave him a chance to experience something special.
C.It made him feel embarrassed in front of his classmates.

I started to work as an editor for a travel magazine. I didn ’ t really mind the work, but I wanted something more
challenging. My sister sent me some details for a position in a start­up. The job was a seemingly perfect mix of my skills and
interests, so I jumped at it.
However, soon after I joined the company, its model changed to focus on education, and everything about my position
changed. I was asked to take on the completely different roles of selling contents to teachers and training people. I had no
experience in sales, training or education. On top of that, I’m an introvert(内向的人).I felt more a little outside my comfort
zone.
I knew I wanted to grow as an individual and make a serious impact on the company. I told myself that everything feels
overwhelming at first and
I should
at least try. In a way, I felt like I didn’t have a choice. I knew jumping out of the nest
was the right thing for me, even though it felt pretty awful.
I was fortunate to be surrounded by very helpful people, both at work and at home. My boss never asked if I thought I
could do it; she asked if
I was interested in trying.
I spent hours researching my company’s products. I asked lots of questions and spoke to so many teachers that there were
soon more good experiences than difficult ones. I looked for opportunities to put in extra effort. The more I did, the better I felt.
Over time, I discovered that the job was something I could do and liked doing. It was incredibly rewarding to see the
company grow. I also learned it’s important to take risks and accept new opportunities, even when you’re not sure if you’ll do
well. I don’t think there’s anything worse than failing to try. I’m so glad I tried, and it surely paid off.
8.Why did the author want to change her job?
A.She intended to challenge something new.
B.She was paid too little at her old job.
C.She followed her sister’s advice.
D.She got bored of her old boss.
9.How did the author feel after she entered the new company?
A.Excited.
B.Curious.
C.Stressed.
D.Comfortable.
10.The author could finally handle her job mainly because________.
A.people around her helped her solve the challenge
B.she was hardworking and made a lot of effort
C.she knew she would do well
D.her boss trusted her to try

A new study shows that rising levels of planet­warming gases may reduce important nutrients(营养物) in food crops.
Researchers studied the effects of carbon dioxide on rice. In the experiment, scientists grew 18 kinds of rice in fields in
China and Japan. They set carbon dioxide levels to what scientists are predicting for our planet by the end of the century. Rice
grown under high carbon dioxide conditions had, on average, 13 to 30 percent lower levels of four B vitamins and 10 percent
less protein(蛋白质). The crops also had 8 percent less iron and 5 percent less zinc than rice grown under normal conditions.
However, Vitamin E levels increased by about 13 percent on average.
The researchers said the effects of planet­warming gases would be most severe for the poorest citizens in some of the least
developed countries. These people generally eat the most rice and have the least complex diets. That includes about 600 million
people in Indonesia, Cambodia, Myanmar, Bangladesh, Laos and other nations, mainly in Southeast Asia.
Other studies have shown that higher temperatures from climate change and weather extremes will reduce food production.
And scientists are finding that rising levels of carbon dioxide and other planet­warming gases threaten food quality.
Earlier studies showed that wheat, rice, field peas and soybeans grown under high carbon dioxide conditions all had lower
levels of protein and minerals. Scientists predicted that almost 150 million people might be at risk of having too little protein or
zinc in their diet by 2050.
The new study suggests a way to lower the nutritional harm of climate change. That is to grow different forms of rice that
can adapt to higher carbon dioxide levels.
12.Growing rice under high carbon dioxide conditions may ________.
A.increase iron in the rice
B.make it less nutritious
C.cause losses of Vitamin E
D.make it more delicious
13.How can people reduce the nutritional harm of climate change?
A.By importing rice from China and Japan.
B.By taking other kinds of food instead of rice.
C.By avoiding eating rice from Southeast Asia.
D.By growing rice suitable for the environment.
14.What’s the author’s purpose of writing the text?
A.To inform readers what nutrients food crops contain.
B.To call on people to care for the planet they live on.
C.To share the results of some studies on people’s diets.
D.To tell readers where food crops are mainly produced.
15.In which part of a magazine can you read the text?
A.Advertisements.
B.Art and culture.
C.Science reports.
D.Business news.

What’s the purpose of building patience abilities? In a word, happiness. Better relationships, more success. But indeed it
takes efforts to build them successfully. 16.________ Thus, when the big ones come, we will have developed the patience we
need for hard times.
Understand the addictive nature of anger and impatience. We, human beings, are still constructed with our old reptilian(爬
行动物的) brain that protects our physical and emotional survival. On the emotional survival side, we want our way to get
ahead, to achieve, and to “look good”. Let’s just face it. 17.________ So the first step in growing patience is to get in touch
with the addictive quality of the opposite of patience—anger, impatience, blame and shame. We all have them. And we can
grow beyond them.
Upgrade our attitude towards discomfort and pain. Pain has its purposes and pushes us to find solutions—we try to change
the other person, situation or thing that we think is causing our discomfort. But the problem is that it is not the outside thing that’
s the source of our pain, but how our mind is set. 18.________
Pay attention when the impatience or pain starts. Most of us don’t really realize it when we are feeling even the smallest
— but very present — painful feelings. 19.________ But to really care for ourselves, get curious about what ’ s actually
happening in the moment inside you. Focusing on what’s actually happening, you can notice the worry of not wanting what’s
happening, the resistance.
20.________ When you find yourself impatient, or angry with yourself, you can remind yourself that you are growing,
and that, “Sure, this is understandable; this is what happens to me when I’m bothered.” You can say to yourself, “It’s true.
I don’t like this; this is uncomfortable, but I can tolerate it.”

A.Practice positive self­talk.
B.So the solution to pain is an inside job.
C.Patience abilities benefit you in many ways.
D.Learn to forgive yourself for being impatient in hard times.
E.We ignore the fact that we’re in pain and focus completely on fixing the problem.

vegetables or takes care of all the houseworks. Though my parents often ask her to quit the work, my grandma never listen. She
takes that she does as her great joy. I understand her because I see her smile and she is satisfied with life. Several months before,
my father bought for her a new smartphone. And during the Spring Festival, I instructed her how email and use the Internet.
Aside from emailing, she thinks it feels greatly to talk to their grandchildren on WeChat.

Attire(服装) and Flowers at College of Charleston
You fashionista will love this one. During the December ceremony, women wear black dresses and men wear black
tuxedos(无尾礼服). During the May ceremony, women wear white dresses and men wear summer tuxedos. It’s also been a
tradition since the 1930s to carry flowers onto the stage:women carry bouquets of six red roses in a red bow and men wear a
single red rose boutonniere(胸花). So classy!
Hoop Rolling at Wellesley College
This all­women’s college tradition was originally held on May Day, but it’s now held in April. The purpose was to allow
students to essentially leave all their worries behind and just participate in some fun games outdoors. Back in the day, it was
said that the winner of the hoop rolling race was the first to be married, and in the 1980s she would be the first to be a CEO.
Nowadays, the winner would be the first to achieve her own happiness...that is, after being thrown into Lake Waban by all her
classmates.
Fabric and Green Grad Recycling Program at the University of New Hampshire
You’ll absolutely love this tradition. UNH’s vendor provides wrinkle­resistant caps and gowns
made of recycled plastic
bottles. Graduates then have the opportunity to donate their gowns to be cleaned and reused. Graduates are still able to keep
their caps and tassels as keepsakes, all while helping to save the environment.
1.If you want to participate in the December ceremony, you can choose ________.
A.College of Charleston
B.Wellesley College
C.University of New Hampshire
D.Oxford University
2.Hoop Rolling at Wellesley College is aimed at enabling the students to ________.
A.be a CEO
B.have fun
C.achieve happiness
D.be married
3.What are UNH’s caps and gowns made of?
A.Flowers.
B.Silk and cotton.
C.Leather.
D.Recycled plastic bottles.

I was waiting for my train and on the subway station’s floor was a man just sitting there. I looked around and nobody
stopped so I just went my way. After a few steps, I turned and asked him whether he needed help. He told me his house was one
station further and he would only need to take the train there. So I reached for his hand to help him stand up.
He wanted to take the stairs but I feared that he would hurt himself since he seemed too weak to walk, so I asked him to
take the elevator. Even though my mind was trying to turn the danger lights on, I put the thought that I should not go alone with
a drunken man out of my mind and accompanied him on the elevator.
We arrived on the platform with no incidents. The man’s knees seemed to soften, so I asked him to rest on a bench. While
sitting there, he thanked me, telling me that I saved him. No, I said, I really did nothing; he saved himself as he walked on his
own feet.
At the next station, we said our goodbyes. Before I knew it, he left 100 dollars and dashed out of the train. There was no
way to give him back his money. I wanted to leave it on the seat, but a young woman who thought it belonged to me ran after
me and gave me the note.
My initial reaction to getting that money was of shame and I even felt offended. Then I thought he just wanted to thank me,
the best way he knew how. Now, my question is—what act of kindness shall I do with these 100 dollars?
4.Why was the man sitting on the subway station’s floor?
A.Because he wanted to go home.
B.Because he was seriously ill.
C.Because he was drunk.
D.Because he was waiting for the train.
5.Seeing the money left by the man, the author first felt ________.
A.ashamed
B.grateful
C.delighted
D.frustrated
6.How will the author possibly deal with the money?
A.Give it back.
B.Buy something favorite.
C.Leave it on the seat.
D.Give it to people in need.
7.What can we infer from the passage?
A.I helped the man the moment I saw him.
B.I accompanied the man to take the stairs.
C.I thought it unsafe to go alone with the drunken man at first.

Young trees don’t just grow;they develop a personality and learn more about their environment and how they should best
behave in it.They also help each other out whenever there’s trouble.
Personality, just as among people, varies among trees.Some are anxious, some bold.On the author’s land, there are three
oak trees growing close together.One of the oak trees always starts to shed its leaves two weeks earlier than the others.Since
they all experience the same temperature, the same soil and the same length of day, such variables can’t be the explanation.So
what’s happening?Well, this tree is simply more careful than the others.Whoever holds on to their leaves longer can do more
photosynthesis(光合作用) and store more nutrients.However, the longer a tree keeps its leaves, the higher the risk of injury.
Not only do trees make their own decisions, they also learn
from their mistakes.A tree, for example,keeping its leaves
too long during one year will never make this mistake again.This leads to several other conclusions:trees must notice the
temperature and the length of the day and be able to save their experiences somewhere.Obviously, trees don’t have brains, but
it is thought that in the sensitive tips of their roots they keep track of information and experiences.
But trees aren’t only clever when it comes to caring for themselves.They also support each other whenever there’s trouble
by giving warnings and even taking care of sick and weak conspecifics with nutrients.For example, one time the author found a
very old tree stump.Its insides had rotted a long time ago to topsoil.But the wood on the outside of the stump was still
living.How was this possible?Well, the stump was nourished by its neighbors with nutrients from the root system, and had
been for at least 400 years!
Why do trees do_such_a_thing ?It’s simple: it’s better together.Trees need the forest; it protects them from storms,
provides the right microclimate and warns them of attacks.
8.Why does the author mention the three oak trees?
A.To illustrate trees can learn from experiences.
B.To show trees can make independent decisions.
C.To explain trees are quite supportive to each other.
D.To prove trees have the same personalities as humans.
9.According to the text, which of the following best describes general features of trees?
A.Anxious and bold.
B.Smart and adventurous.
C.Helpful and well­behaved.
D.Adaptable and supportive.
10.What does the underlined phrase “do such a thing” mean?
A.Give warnings.
B.Offer assistance.
C.Depend on others.
D.Provide nutrients.
11.Where does this text most probably come from?
A.A public lecture.
B.A science book.
C.An experiment report.
D.A travel journal.

As evolution tends to remove waste, how come we evolved such large, energy ­ consuming brains? The dominant
hypothesis(假设) suggests that tough social interactions are the driving force. But our new study done in an unusual way shows
that human brain expansion is likely driven by ecology(生态).
Scientists have tested the ecological and social hypotheses before. The common approach is to look at many species and
investigate whether large brains are associated with specific problems. For example, do primates or other animals with large
brains have a diet that is challenging to find but nutritionally rewarding? This would indicate an ecological origin. Or do they
live in large groups where they face lots of social problems?
While many studies have found such associations, there is a problem. It cannot tell whether large brains evolved to solve
the difficult problems or whether they evolved for other reasons and then enabled their bearers to deal with the hard problems.
To find out the causes of brain expansion, we recreated the scenarios(情景) of the two hypotheses using a mathematical
model. We found that a combination of ecological and social challenges does produce the brain size we see in humans. But it
was ecological challenges that expanded brains. In contrast to the dominant view and our own expectation, we found that social
challenges contributed by decreasing brain size. But you need both factors to get the brain size we see today—if there were no
social challenges our brains would have been even larger but likely poorly suited to social life. Bigger isn’t necessarily better.
But many animals face hard ecological problems. Why don ’ t they all have large brains? We found that ecological
problems only lead to human­sized brains when individuals can keep learning hard skills as they grow. So our results and those
of others’ suggest that hard ecology and the accumulation of cultural knowledge could act together to produce a human­sized
brain.
Will the human brain expand further? The complexity of the systems involved makes it impossible to say much with
certainty at present.
12.In most people’s view, what makes human evolve large brains?
A.Social challenges.
B.Social and ecological challenges.
【公众号:实用视界 +VX:18071191557】
第17 页共88 页
C.Ecological challenges.
D.Competition with other large animals.
13.What’s the problem of the common approach?
A.Its model is not reliable enough.
B.It doesn’t tell the cause and effect clearly.
C.Its hypothesis cannot be proved effectively.
D.It doesn’t find brain size is connected with problems.
14.Why don’t many animals have large brains?
A.They don’t learn from each other.
B.They don’t face hard ecological problems.
C.They don’t need to cooperate with each other.
D.They don’t keep learning tough skills as they grow.
15.Which of the following do the researchers find most surprising?
A.Animals don’t have large brains.
B.Social challenges decrease brain size.
C.Ecological challenges increase brain size.
D.It’s unclear whether human brains will expand further.

The US has countless secret swimming holes throughout most states, many of which you’ve likely never heard of unless
you’re from the area.
Havasu Falls
This attractive waterfall in the Grand Canyon is undoubtedly a destination spot requiring a 10­mile walk to the falls. You
can take a guided tour to the falls, or make it on your own. The Havasu Falls is on the Havasupai Indian Reservation, which
means you’ll need to get a permit to visit—this has become increasingly difficult as more people discover this hidden place.
Hamilton Pool
Hamilton Pool was created when an underground river’s roof fell down suddenly, exposing what is now the swimming
hole and creating a 50­foot waterfall that flows over the above limestone(石灰岩). You’ll have to reserve beforehand to gain
entry to the Hamilton Pool Preserve.
Chutes and Ladders
To get to this secret swimming hole, you’ll have to grasp a rope and slide down the face of a cliff for 40 feet, and then
climb down about 8 feet of lava rock to the pool. Once there, however, you ’ ll be glad you have made the journey. The
swimming hole is on the edge of the ocean—a natural pool, you could say—with a depth that invites you to jump in without
crowds of people around to watch.
Homestead Crater
The Homestead Crater is hidden under a rock dome(穹顶) with an opening at the top that allows for sunlight and air. It
was once only accessible by that top opening, but there is now easy access through a side path for visitors. Go for a swim in the
beautiful mineral spring water.

Looking back on my childhood, I am convinced that naturalists are born and not made.
Although we were all brought up in the same way, my brothers and sisters soon abandoned their pressed flowers and
insects. Unlike them, I had no ear for music and languages. I was not an early reader and I could not do mental maths.
I have only the unmemorable memory of the house we lived in, of my room and my toys. Nor do I recall clearly the large
family of grandparents, aunts, uncles and cousins who gathered next door. But I do have a crystal clear memory of the dogs, the
farm animals, the local birds, and above all the insects.
I am a naturalist, not a scientist. I have a strong love of the natural world, and my enthusiasm has led me into varied
investigations. I love discussing my favorite topics and enjoy burning the midnight oil while reading about other people’s
observations and discoveries. Then something happens that brings these observations together in my conscious mind. This has
resulted in my publishing 300 papers and books, which some might honour with the title of scientific research.
But curiosity, a keen eye, a good memory and enjoyment of the animal and plant world do not make a scientist:One of the
outstanding and essential qualities required is self­discipline, a quality I lack. A scientist requires not only self­discipline but all
training, determination and a goal. A scientist, up to a point, can be made. A naturalist is born. If you can combine the two, you
get the best of both worlds.
4.What impressed the author deeply during his childhood?
A.Wildlife.
B.Music.
C.Languages.
D.Literature.
5.Why can’t the author remember his relatives clearly?
A.He didn’t live with them for long.
B.The family was extremely large.
C.He was fully occupied with observing nature.
D.He was too young when he lived with them.
6.According to the author, what personality should a born naturalist have first of all?
A.Being knowledgeable.
B.Being self­disciplined.
C.Being full of ambition.
D.Being full of enthusiasm.
7.Why does the author say he is a naturalist, not a scientist?
A.He thinks he lacks some quality required of a scientist.
B.He thinks he has much trouble doing mental arithmetic.
C.He thinks he comes up with solutions in a most natural way.
D.He thinks he just reads about other people’s observations.

It was about seven years ago. I just picked up my three­year­old daughter from the nursery. I was weighed down with
shopping bags, and with my daughter’s things. We arrived at a pedestrian crossing and she pressed the button. In the distance, I
heard alarms, told my daughter to wait and watched a police car approaching.
Little did I know, as the_green_man flashed, that my daughter had begun to run into the road. I watched the police car
speed toward us—that’s when you sounded your horn and waved wildly to me. My daughter was about a meter from the path
of the police car, hidden from their view by your car.
I screamed her name and ran toward her. She stopped and was shocked by the rush of the police car as it sped past. She
wondered why you had blown your horn, asking, “Mom, why was that woman so rude?” not realizing you had saved her
life.
She wondered why I picked her up and burst into tears. My legs gave way as I reached the other side of the road. I should
have followed my “wait” with a hand on her shoulder, or an explanation of why we were ignoring the green man this time,
especially as I had in effect conditioned her to cross the road at the sight of the green flash.
I beat myself up for months, and still do, with flashbacks and horrible assumptions about what might have been. But for

your sounding your horn, seeing what I hadn’t seen, I would have been left a mother on the other side of the road, totally
broken. I apologize for putting you in that position —I can imagine that it upset you, too. You saved her life and I am so
grateful.
8.What does the underlined part “the green man” in Paragraph 2 refer to?

A.The mother didn’t regret what had happened.
B.The daughter didn’t follow the traffic rules.
C.The woman responded quickly and properly.
D.The police drove beyond the speed limit.
11.How did the mother feel when taking hold of her daughter?
A.Angry and shocked.
B.Scared but relieved.
C.Guilty and confused.
D.Grateful but sad.

A new study has shown how computers and robots powered by artificial intelligence can read human eye movements to
“read” human personalities.
The eyes, they say, are the windows to the soul. And if that is true, computers and robots powered by sophisticated(复杂的)
artificial intelligence algorithms(演算法) may soon have the ability to peer_into your soul. That is the result of a new study on
the connection between eye movements and personality, conducted by neuroscience researchers based at the University of
South Australia and published in the scientific journal Frontiers in Neuroscience.
“Eye movements during an everyday task predict aspects of our personality,”wrote the researchers, led by University of
South Australia neuroscientist Tobias Loetscher, whose team followed 42 study subjects around the university campus
recording their eye movements, then determined their personality traits with “ well ­ established questionnaires ”
for
determining the personality type, according to a summary of the study published by the site Science Daily.
The researchers fed the data into their AI algorithms and found that computers running the algorithms were able to record
human eye movements and immediately determine a person’s major personality traits, such as “neuroticism, extraversion(外
向), agreeableness, conscientiousness, as well as curiosity”,the scientists wrote.
“The new findings could improve the way human beings interact with their computers and other high­tech devices, even
robots, allowing for more natural and realistic social interactions with machines,” Loetscher said.
“People are always looking for improved, personalized services. Today’s robots and computers are not socially aware
so they cannot adapt to non­verbal information,” Loetscher said in a statement quoted by The Indian Express. This research
provides opportunities to develop robots and computers so that they can become more natural, and better at interpreting human
social signals.
The study revealed previously undiscovered relations between specific personality characteristics and specific eye
movement tendencies, according to a summary in Britain’s Daily Mail newspaper.
12.What do the underlined words “peer into” in Paragraph 2 probably mean?
A.Understand.
B.Stare at.
C.Search for.
D.Concern about.
13.How did the researchers conduct the research?
A.It was carried out in a lab.
B.42 subjects’ eye movements were recorded.
C.The students’ daily movements were tracked.
D.Its subjects’ personalities were determined by computer.
14.What can we know according to Tobias Loetscher?
A.Robots and computers are socially conscious.
B.People care less about improved, personalized services.
C.Today’s robots and computers can accustom to non­verbal information.
D.The discovery will improve the interaction between human beings and machines.
15.What can be a suitable title for the text?

Have you ever wondered what the real meaning of the saying “A friend in need is a friend indeed” is? 16.________ True
friendship is the one, in which the individuals do not have to maintain good manners with each other. Sharing true friendship is
the situation, when the person you are talking about is regarded as one among your family members, when the relation you
share with him or her reaches a stage that even if you don’t correspond for some time, your friendship remains unchanged.
The trust between best friends is such that if one friend falls in trouble, the other will not think twice to help. If the bond
between two friends is strong, true friends can tolerate even long distances. 17.________ It would not affect their friendship.
18.________ They would face it together and support each other, even if it is against the interests of the other person. Best
friends don’t analyze each other and they don’t have to do so. They accept each other with their positive and negative qualities.
19.________ They know each other’s strengths as well as weaknesses. One would not overpower the other. They would respect
each other’s individuality. In fact, they would understand the similarities and respect the differences.
True friendship is marked by selflessness. Best friends support each other, even if the whole world opposes them.
20.________ If you have even one true friend, consider yourself lucky.
A.True friendship never fades away.
B.Nothing is hidden between true friends.
C.It is not easy getting true friends for the lifetime.
D.For them, geographical separation is just a part of life.
E.True friends don’t desert each other when one is facing trouble.
F.Remember, all the best friends are friends, but not all friends can be the best friends.
G.People talk about the true value of friendship actually without knowing what it stands for.

Jayce began noticing when he was in kindergarten that he looked different from his classmates. They had two arms. He
had one.
It started when one boy __21__him, said his mother, Lewis. He’d return to his home with questions:“Why am I
__22__ ? Why me?” His mother recalled he was actually sad and that it was a heavy __23__ to his heart.
Lewis __24__ she didn’t know what to do at that point. A few weeks later, Lewis turned on the TV and saw a news story
about an eighth grader, Trashaun, becoming an Internet hit after __25__ videos of his slam dunks(灌篮), and, like Jayce, he
__26__ most of his left arm. Lewis called Jayce in. To her surprise, Jayce was immediately __27__. At the time, it seemed that
watching Trashaun was __28__ an inspiring moment for Jayce—he saw a role model with a similar __29__. If it had stayed just
that, Lewis would have been happy enough. But little did she know that a family friend had already __30__ to the newspaper to
help set up a __31__ with Trashaun to build Jayce’s confidence.
The boys met and instantly __32__ with each other as both of them were in the same condition. They rode bikes, took
photos, and played basketball on the court. Instead of spending the whole day feeling __33__ for themselves, they had a lot of

way he was made. He also told him not to let anyone __35__ him and not to let those words shake his __36__.
Since that meeting, Lewis has seen a noticeable __37__ in her son. As for Trashaun, his relationship with Jayce made him
__38__ to help more kids. “Honestly, it __39__ a lot to know that I changed Jayce’s life,” Trashaun says. Still, he never
dreamed that his __40__ would have such an impact. “I just thought my friends would see them, and be like, ‘Oh, he dunked
it!’”
He certainly did.

The other day, we moved to the new school yard, where lies in the far north of the city. We were all on high spirits. It is
much big than the old one. The classrooms are bright and clean. We have a lot of modern equipment, making convenient for
students to learn every subject. Now we can have a lot of after­school activity on the new playground. Our teachers often play
the basketball and soccer together with us. As spring approached, the flowers newly planting in the yard have just come out.
With such many green trees and fragrant flowers around, we feel it less hardly to study and our school life more enjoyable.

TrueCar.com
Top dealers compete for your business by offering lower prices. TrueCar spends a lot of money and resources on making
sure the entire car renting experience is simple and straightforward. If you’re in the market for a new car, give this site a try
first.
TrueCar’s network checks many of the prices in your area and gets the best price for the car you’re looking for.
Carvoy.com
It offers more control by allowing you to “build your car” and select your rental plan. The “build your car” option is
one of the better options for those looking to add features to their car. If you’re looking for cars with options like a sunroof or
navigation(导航), it’s Carvoy that makes it very easy to get started with the process.
CarsDirect.com
They have a large collection of new and used cars, and also provide resources for car comparisons. In the business for
many years, they are one of the first online car outlets. They have a staff that can usually help you if you give them a call. Their
phone support is very good and they are mostly located in the United States.
CarRentals.com
It delivers your rental car to the door, which is actually a huge selling point. Many people don’t like to go to a dealership
or even drive somewhere to pick up a car. Imagine renting a car and having it delivered right to your doorstep, and you need not
drive by yourself.
CostcoAuto.com
It offers member­only savings, many car selections and an easy sign­up process. The deals through Costco are great and
unique. Many times they have deals with General Motors cars like Chevrolet. There are a lot of deals to be done, but the one
thing that Costco does not do is negotiate the price.

Keeping fit often means sharing a busy pathway with cyclists, runners and walkers, but imagine facing the task of doing it
all without being able to see or hear. It is a challenge many disabled athletes face, unless someone agrees to be their eyes and
ears.
Newly formed group Achilles Brisbane pairs vision­and hearing­impaired(视觉和听觉受损的) athletes with people who
would like to guide them.
Jane Britt, president of Achilles Brisbane, who is vision­and hearing­impaired, said,“When we go out, it’s much less
frightening to have someone beside us that has full hearing to listen for us and tell us what’s there.”

Ms.Cullen and Ms.Britt meet up most Saturday mornings to take part in the free five­kilometer park run. Their partnership
is built on trust, but Ms.Britt said that it took time to develop.
Ms.Britt said it took an unexpected storm for her to trust Ms.Cullen completely.“There was violent rain, my glasses were
broken and we were walking together. I suddenly had to tell her I couldn’t see anything, and I was going to have to completely
trust her. From that time I knew it was going to work because she was so good about dealing with the special situation we both
found ourselves in,”she said.
Isabella Allen and her seeing eye dog Tatum are two new additions to the Achilles Brisbane. Ms.Allen kept active by
rowing, running and cycling but found it difficult to keep going as her vision became worse.After nearly giving up completely,
she worked up the courage to ask Achilles Brisbane to find someone to share a boat with her.
Ms.Allen said the fear of not finding anyone to row with almost stopped her from reaching out to Achilles Brisbane.“But,
they found people and matched me to them,”she said.“It’s the best thing I’ve ever done.”
4.What does Paragraph 1 try to show?
A.The danger of walking on a busy road.

While an entire month free of homework or tests may sound too good to be true, that is exactly what the students
at
Sturenskolan School in Boden, Sweden were treated to
in April. What ’ s more, if the results of the experiment prove
encouraging, starting 2019, the middle schoolers will never have to worry about after-school work or tests, aside from the
national
examinations, which are compulsive for students across the country.
The school’s principal, Petronella Sirkka, who came up with the idea,
said,
“We are constantly receiving new reports
that our children feel bad.
And that’s because they have a high level of stress all the time. This is our way of trying to reduce
that stress.”
The educator says that while banning homework and tests sounds radical(激进的), it
makes sense
given
the changes
in the curriculum and approaches to education. While in the past students were primarily subjected to memorizing facts,
learning today is all about reflection and analysis.
As a result, it is often harder for kids, especially those with little support at
home, to comprehend the material by themselves.
Sirkka is not the only one who believes
after-school work
does not help students learn.
In
March 2018,
another principal in Canada also decided to do away with homework. They hope parents will spend the extra time reading to
their kids.
While the long-term impact of the recent decisions made by the two educators remains to be seen, the experiment has
already proved successful in Finland which has done away with homework, grades, and even teaching by subjects for many
years. Yet, Finnish students always rank high in the PISA(Programme
for
International
Student
Assessment)
tests
especially in math and science but they have the least homework! Hopefully,
it will only be a matter of time before
US
educators follow their lead
and ban
after-school work as well!
8.The students at Sturenskolan School had no homework in
April because ________.
A.the headmaster was experimenting with her idea
B.they needed to do some experiments during the month
C.they were busy preparing for the national examinations
D.the headmaster had to carry out the government’s policy
9.What makes children’s learning hard nowadays?
A.Children have to do more analyzing.
B.The approach to education is complex.
C.Children get no support at home and school.
D.There are more facts to memorize.

10.What does Petronella Sirkka most likely advise parents to do?
A.Help children with their homework.
B.Free children from after-school housework.
C.Spend more time reading to their children.
D.Communicate with teachers from time to time.
11.What can we infer about the students in Finland?
A.They study the hardest at school.
B.They have a more relaxing school life.
C.They enjoy great success after graduation.
D.They all have a talent for math and science.

With smart technology increasingly influencing all aspects of our lives, it is only a matter of time before someone invents
smart shoes—ones that can be made based on personal needs. Called “ShiftWear”,the sneakers are the brainchild of a team of
businessmen, and engineers led by New York­based designer David Coelho.
The adaptable shoes can be customized by using a smart phone app. Shoe owners will have the option of selecting a design
from a variety of HD patterns by famous artists or creating one themselves. The company’s founders imagine the marketplace
where artists can not only share but also sell their designs to others. Despite being electronic, the designs are clearly visible
even in the brightest sunlight. What’s even cooler is that by switching on a backlight, users can even show off their designs in
the dark!
According to Coelho, the sneakers will keep their charge forever if only images are displayed. Though they will need
periodic recharging, active users have nothing to worry about. That’s because the shoes are equipped with special Walk­N­
Charge technology that powers the shoes—with every step. Inactive users also have options of charging the sneakers without
using
wires.
The bottom part of the shoes is covered with Kevlar fibers, a kind of strong material, reducing normal wear and tear. Even
better, they are completely waterproof(防水的) and can even be thrown into an ordinary laundry machine for a quick wash! The
company predicts that the shoes will range in price from $150 to $1,000 depending on the size of the e­panels where the
designs are displayed.
This is not the first time that electronics and shoes have combined. Lithuania­based iShuh Technologies has come up with
a similar concept that connects e­reader panels to a smart phone app via the Bluetooth. Whether these smart shoes become as
popular as our smart devices remains to be seen, though they surely are attractive.
12.What can we know about the smart shoes from the text?
A.The electronic designs can not be seen clearly at night.
B.The designers make sure every pair of sneakers is unique.
C.The bottom part of the shoes can last longer due to special materials.
D.The shoes have to be washed by hand to protect the electronics.
13.What does Paragraph 3 mainly talk about?
A.How the sneakers are charged.
B.How the sneakers can work well.
C.What images the sneakers show.
D.What technology the sneakers carry.
14.The varied prices of the sneakers mainly depend on ________.
A.the length of the shoes
B.the size of their e­panels
C.the designers of the shoes
D.the material of their bottoms
15.How does the author feel about the sneakers’ future market?
A.Negative.
B.Anxious.
C.Uncertain.
D.Confident.

I realized something this morning. I have been writing now for 34 years. It all started when I was just 18 years old. As a
boy I had read literally hundreds of books. I had a thirst for knowledge that seemingly could never fade. Then suddenly I found
I had something I wanted to share. I tried to ignore it, but as any writer tells you once the ideas awaken inside of you they won’t
leave you alone until you write them down. I didn’t have a computer, word processor, or even a typewriter. Still, I grabbed a
pen and lined notebook paper and wrote everything that was burning inside of me.
When I was done I didn’t know how to share it. There was no internet back then, no smart phones, and no social media. I
sought out the editor of my local county newspaper and asked him to print what I had written. He was a good man full of both
wisdom and kindness. He not only printed my first story but agreed to publish anything else I was willing to write. I continued
to write new articles each week and shared them first with other local papers and later online as well. Years later at the urging of

my readers I even self­published two collections of my stories in book form.
Through my writing I slowly became more than I was. In my writings I encountered my highest self. In my writings I
discovered the goodness and light that lie in us all. In my writings I found great love and joy and encouraged others to choose
love and joy as well. I also found that we all are writers whether we put pen to paper or not. With every choice we make, with
every thought we hold, and with everything we do, we are writing our own life story.
Lance Wubbels once wrote:“I hope you realize your life is truly your life. It belongs to you. It is your story to write with
love. Day by day, line by line, write it well.”

Plants cannot run or hide, so they need
other strategies to avoid being eaten. Some curl
up their leaves; others produce
chemicals to
make themselves taste bad if they sense
animals drooling on them, chewing them up or laying eggs on them—
all signals of an attack.
New research now shows some flora can feel a
plant-eating animal well before it launches an
attack, letting a plant prepare
a
preemptive(先发制人的)
defense that even works against other pest species.
When ecologist John Orrock of the University of Wisconsin-Madison sprayed snail slime—a liquid the animals release
as
they slide along—onto soil, nearby tomato plants appeared to
notice.
They increased their levels of an enzyme(酶),
which is
known to prevent plant-eating animals.“None of the plants were
ever actually attacked,”Orrock says. “We just
gave them cues
that suggested an attack was coming, and that was enough to
cause big changes in their chemistry.”
Initially Orrock found this defense worked against snails; in
the latest study, his team measured the slimy warning’s
impact on
another potential threat. The investigators found that hungry
caterpillars(毛虫), which usually eat tomato leaves
greedily,
had no appetite for them after the plants were exposed to snail
slime and activated their chemical resistance.“This
nonspecific
defense may be a strategy that benefits the plants by further
improving their overall possibilities of survival,”
says Orrock, who
reported the results with his colleagues in March in Oecologia.
The finding that a snail’s approach can cause a plant
response that affects a different animal made Richard Karban
curious, a plant communications expert, who was not involved in
the study.“It is significant that the plants are responding
before being damaged and that these cues are having such far -ranging
effects ,”
Karban says. The research was
comprehensive, he
adds, but he wonders how the tomato plants felt chemicals in
snail slime that never actually touched
them.
“That’s the million-dollar question,”Orrock says. He hopes future research will make out the mechanisms that enable
plants
to sense these relatively distant cues.
8.John Orrock sprayed a liquid onto soil near tomato plants to ________.
A.make them grow better
B.give them a warning
C.keep plant-eating animals away
D.inform plant-eating animals of danger
9.Why is the example of “caterpillars” mentioned in Paragraph 3?
A.To introduce another animal.
B.To confirm the result of the study.
C.To appeal to people to protect animals.
D.To analyze different resistance chemicals.
10.What does Richard Karban really want to know?

A.How tomato plants become aware of danger.
B.What the chemicals in the snail slime are.
C.Whether the research is of practical value.
D.What the finding of the research is.

Historians and archaeologists have defined periods of human history for centuries by the technologies or materials that
made the greatest impact on society. This includes the Stone Age, the Bronze Age, and the Iron Age. But what age are we in
now? That question can be answered with one word for some researchers. Plastics.
“Plastic has redefined our material culture and the artifacts we leave behind. It will be found in stratified(分层的) layers
in our trash deposits(沉积层).” That’s according to John Marston, an archaeologist.
The wide variety of synthetic polymers(合成聚合物) would not exist if it weren’t for human action. About six billion tons
of plastics have been made and spread around the planet. They have been spread from forests to oceans ever since the first
plastic polymers were invented.
Plastics are one of the most significant changes that humans have made to the Earth’s makeup. Most plastics don’t easily
degrade. This only adds to the problem. Recycling isn’t an adequate solution. Not all types of plastic are easily recyclable. And
there are only a few recycling plants that can process all varieties of plastic.
According to Debra Winter, writer for The Atlantic, this means that many of the materials thrown into recycling bins can
cross the planet several times before they are processed. They are made into rugs, sweaters, or they are used to make other
bottles. Millions of tons of plastics are recycled every year, but millions more end up in landfills or the ocean. The problem has
reached the point where it’s possible that in just a few decades there might be more plastic in the world’s oceans than fishes.
“Plastics have a supposed lifespan of over 500 years, so it’s safe to say that every plastic bottle you have used exists
somewhere on this planet, in some form or another,” Winter writes.
The damage may already be done. It may be too late for human populations worldwide to change their plastic using ways.
So the Plastic Age might soon take its place next to the Bronze Age and the Iron Age in the history of human civilization.
12.Why do people call our age the Plastic Age?
A.Because plastics are not naturally made.
B.Because humans create plastics.
C.Because plastics influence the world greatly.
D.Because historians and archaeologists think so.
13.According to the passage, how are most plastics dealt with currently?
A.They are recycled.
B.They are degraded.
C.They are thrown away.
D.They are made into bottles.
14.What is the author’s attitude to the Plastic Age?
A.Negative.
B.Ambiguous.
C.Favorable.
D.Unconcerned.
15.What is the main idea of this passage?
A.Plastics have ruined our environment.
B.We must stop using plastics altogether.
C.Human beings are in the Plastic Age.
D.Plastics are significant to human development.

Whoever wrote the song “It’s the Most Wonderful Time of the Year” must have never experienced the holiday blues.
Fortunately, psychological research suggests some effective ways you can use to beat the holiday blues. The key point is that
sadness and other tough emotions are not what we should try to avoid. 16.________. Here are four strategies to help you make
your own happiness recipe this holiday season.
Don’t force cheer
At family gatherings with cousins you secretly can’t stand, you tend to put on a happy face. Indeed, that might even seem
like the most mature response—no drama, no conflict. But a 2011 study followed dozens of bus drivers, looking to see when
they gave forced or honest smiles at their passengers. The results showed when the drivers pretended to have a good mood,
their actual moods got worse. 17.________.
Let out sadness
The results of the bus­driver study can be explained by researchers, who find that negative feelings like sadness or anger
only increase when we try to control them. 18.________. We don’t like contradictory behavior.
Respond cautiously

Recently, scientists have been paying special attention to the benefits of caution. When you respond cautiously to an
emotional trigger, you pause rather than react at once. 19.________. Besides, it is associated with less anxiety, and may even
carry physiological benefits.
20.________
Of course, the holidays will bring a mix of highs and lows, but the most important lesson to keep in mind is that this
variety of emotions might be the best thing possible for your overall well­being. In other words, sadness, anger, and other
difficult emotions are nothing to fear. Just make sure you’re balancing them with lighter experiences. And don’t forget to give
yourself a break.
A.Relax your mind
B.Enjoy a mix of emotions
C.We tend to deny the important function emotions serve
D.Instead, they can help contribute to a healthy and happy life
E.So trying to force happiness seems to have the opposite effects
F.A cautious response to a negative event reduces sadness we experience
G.We feel bad when our appearance contradicts how we truly feel inside

The boy sat on his chair, with his hands above the keyboard. He thought about what to write.
He recalled that the competition deadline was merely a week away. But he still had not even started on his piece. He
looked at the brochure again.“WRITING COMPETITION!” the title read. His mom had encouraged him to enter the writing

competition, and now he was taking it on as his personal task for the holidays.
As the boy reflected on his previous writing efforts, he realized how hopeless his task of winning was. Every story he ever
wrote was based on other stories. He had little imagination, and unfortunately, imagination was the key to writing.
Suddenly, he had a brainwave. This time, he came up with an original and imaginative story.
The words shot towards him like a storm of leaves. Words were coming easily, flowing through him, faster than he could
type. He typed faster than he ever had before. He continued to type, amazed how easy writing this story was. The boy could not
stop writing. He looked at the word count and saw the number “248” staring right back at him. He was not even halfway yet.
Then he heard his mother’s call of saying time for bed. He continued writing the piece, ignoring her. He had to make up
for the time he had lost in thinking about a topic to write.
Finally, he finished. The word count now read “498”.
“Perfect,” he thought, “just under the word limit.” He knew this was the story that would win.
He went to the website and searched for the competition. He found the page but there was no “Enter” button.
Confused, he then re­read the page again. It read COMPETITION CLOSED.
4.What caused the boy to take part in the writing competition?
A.A new computer.
B.The prize money.
C.His own interest.
D.His mom’s encouragement.
5.How did the boy finish his earlier writing?
A.His mom helped him.
B.He copied others’ ideas.
C.His friends assisted him.
D.He used his imagination.
6.Why did the boy delay his writing?
A.Because he was terribly lazy.
B.Because he didn’t know what to write.
C.Because he wasn’t confident.
D.Because he read too many stories.
7.Which might be the maximum word limit for each entry?
A.100.
B.250.
C.500.
D.1,000.

Air pollution shortens human lives by more than a year, according to a new study from a team of leading environmental
engineers and public health researchers. Better air quality could lead to a significant extension of lifespan(寿命) around the
world.
It is the first time that data on air pollution and the lifespan has been studied together in order to check how air pollution
affects overall life expectancy.
The researchers looked at outdoor air pollution from particulate matter (PM)(颗粒物) smaller than 2.5 microns. These
particulates can enter deep into the lungs, and breathing PM 2.5 is associated with the increased risk of heart attacks, strokes
and cancers. PM 2.5 pollution comes from power plants, cars and trucks, fires, agriculture and industrial emissions(排放物).
Led by Joshua Apte, the team used data from the Global Burden of Disease Study to measure PM 2.5 air pollution
exposure and its consequences in 185 countries.
They then quantified the national impact on life expectancy for each
individual country as well as on a global scale.
“The fact that air pollution is a major global killer is already well­known,”said Apte.“And we all care about how long
we can live. Here, we were able to systematically identify how air pollution shortens lives around the world. What we found is
that air pollution has a very large effect on survival — on average about a year globally.”
In the context of other significant phenomena negatively affecting human survival rates, Apte said this is a big number.
“For example, it’s considerably larger than the benefit in survival we might see if we found cures for both lung and breast
cancer combined,” he said. “In countries like India and China, the benefit for elderly people of improving air quality would
be especially large. For much of Asia, if air pollution were removed as a risk for death, 60­year­olds would have a 15 percent
to 20 percent higher chance of living to age 85 or older.”
8.What do we know about PM 2.5?
A.It has a bad effect on human health.
B.It will be controlled in the future.
C.It only comes from industrial emissions.
D.It spreads to the world from Asian countries.
9.What did the researchers do to study how air pollution affects the lifespan?
A.They collected accurate information from all the Asian countries.
B.They employed the research data to calculate the effect.

C.They studied the disease and lifespan together time and time again.
D.They measured particulate matter much more carefully than before.
10.What can be inferred from the text?
A.The key to people living longer is good air quality.
B.People think air pollution is the most dangerous killer to them.
C.Apte will agree that people should take action to deal with air pollution.
D.Factories should decrease the production of cars to stop air pollution.
11.What is the best title for the text?
A.The Way Human Beings Enjoy a Longer Lifespan
B.The Importance of Getting Rid of Air Pollution
C.Asian People Are Suffering from Serious Air Pollution
D.Air Pollution Reduces the Lifespan by More than One Year

Running may feel like a big task for most of us. But do you know our species has evolved to run better than any other
animals on this planet? Cheetahs(猎豹) are the fastest land animals in the world. But do you know that humans can leave them
in the dust? At least, in the long run, that’s right. When it comes to endurance, we can outrun cheetahs, wolves and even horses.
So what makes humans such endurance running superstars? The secret weapon is our sweat. We have 2 -4 million sweat
glands(腺) all over our body, which means we can run and cool ourselves at the same time. Having no fur is also a huge plus. In
contrast, dogs rely on panting(喘息) to cool down, and other animals, like horses and camels, also sweat, but less effectively. As
a result, they overheat faster and must slow down sooner.
So, why did humans get to be such great endurance runners, anyway? Some experts believe this became important around
2-3 million years ago, when we started hunting. Because we couldn’t chase down a gazelle(瞪羚) like a cheetah, early
humans learned hunting.
Studies show running can lower body weight and body fat. And the longer you train, the greater the benefits are. Just one
year of training has been shown to reduce body weight by about 7 lbs, lower body fat by 2.7% and decrease resting heart rate
by 2.7%.
It may seem really hard, or even impossible to run a mile or a marathon. But in fact, you were born to go on that run. We
all were.
12.In the first paragraph, cheetahs are mentioned to ________.
A.show cheetahs are the fastest land animals in the world
B.introduce humans can run fastest on the planet in the long run
C.contrast with wolves and even horses in one aspect of endurance
D.inform running may be a big challenge for most of us humans
13.Why can we humans be endurance running superstars?
A.We can pant to cool down our heat like dogs.
B.We can sweat effectively like horses and camels.
C.We have massive sweat glands and meanwhile no fur.
D.We can run and overheat fastest to cool down ourselves.
14.According to studies in the text, if you want to lose weight, what should you do?
A.Eat a variety of vegetables and less fat.
B.Work out at the gym every day.
C.Exercise outside as much as you like.

Traveling to a foreign country can make you frightened if you don’t know the local language.Mr.Thibault has a number of
tips to help travelers manage in a destination when they don’t speak the native tongue, based on his own experience.Here are a
few of them.
●Download a Language Translation App
Mr.Thibault tends to rely on Google Translate and suggests that travelers find an app that works for them.Ideally, find one
that specializes in the language you need to translate especially if the language uses a character set you’re not familiar with, or
have difficulty pronouncing.
●Speak with Your Hands and Head
Pointing with your hands and nodding or shaking your head,Mr.Thibault said,are easy ways to communicate with locals
in the country you’re in.“Gestures are all universally understood,” he said.
●Learn a Few Key Words
Knowing basic words and phrases like “hello”,“thank you” and “I’m sorry, I don’t speak your language.Do you
speak English?” is a must, Mr.Thibault said.Showing that you care enough to learn some of the language before you go, and
at least enough to acknowledge that you don’t know more, is a form of respect and will go a long way to be liked by locals.
●Work with a Local Travel Agent
If you feel particularly uncomfortable in the country you’re headed to, and you have to go anyway, relying on a local
travel agent who knows both your and your destination’s languages can be incredibly useful.
●Hire a Local Tour Guide
A tour guide can help you get a better grasp of the local language and is a good person to practice words and phrases
with.Whenever Mr.Thibault visits a new country, he books a sightseeing tour with a guide on the first day of his trip.“I use this
day to learn about my destination and get familiar with the language,” he said.
1.In what situation should a language translation app be applied while traveling abroad?
A.When you have trouble pronouncing the words.
B.When you want to acknowledge your ignorance.
C.When you want to practice the local language.
D.When you feel uncomfortable in the country.
2.What is the easiest way to communicate with foreigners according to the text?
A.Downloading a language translation app.
B.Learning a few key words.
C.Using body language.
D.Working with a guide.
3.How can you better understand the local language?
A.By speaking with your hands and head.
B.By learning a few key words.
C.By downloading a language translation app.
D.By hiring a local tour guide.

Devon Gallagher, a college graduate from Philadelphia, wants the world to know exactly where she’s been during her
worldwide vacation in a special way.
The traveler, who was born with a bone disease, had her right leg amputated( 截肢) at the age of four. Although the
amputation caused setbacks for Gallagher early on, she now sees it as nothing short of inspiration for living her best life.
To spread that message, Gallagher has taken to social media, where she shares photos of her travels across the globe, but
instead of simply using a geo­tag, she writes her location across her artificial leg before taking a picture.
Now she has been taking pictures across the Continent, which show her cycling over the canal in Amsterdam, relaxing on
a wall overlooking the city of Barcelona, posing with a waffle in Brussels, taking spectacular pictures in Athens and enjoying a
river cruise in Budapest, all with the well­known locations written on her artificial leg.
“I get a new leg every two years and I can choose the design on it. One day I had a sudden thought to get a chalkboard,”
Gallagher said. “My mum and grandmother weren’t too keen on the idea, but my friends thought it was great and told me to
go for it, so I did.”
Gallagher said people often stare when she’s writing on her leg, but once she shares the photos, she receives only positive
feedback. “My leg hasn’t stopped me from doing anything I’ve wanted to do,” she said. “I don’t know if it’s my
【公众号:实用视界 +VX:18071191557】
第41 页共88 页
determination to prove to myself that I can do it, but regardless, I’ve been able to keep up with my peers and lead a pretty great
life.”
Gallagher shows us that you should never let anything stand in the way of your dreams. And if life gives you an artificial
leg, make art.
4.What message did Gallagher want to spread in her special way?
A.She enjoys her traveling across the globe.
B.She suffers little from her leg amputation.
C.She looks on her misfortune as another form of blessing.
D.She has exactly fallen in love with posting photos online.
5.What does the underlined word “which” in Paragraph 4 refer to?
A.The Continent.
B.The pictures.
C.The leg.
D.The locations.
6.Gallagher can best be described as ________.
A.helpful and ambitious
B.friendly and generous
C.determined and creative
D.independent and sensible
7.Which of the following might be the best title for the text?
A.Never Too Late to Share
B.A Special Artificial Leg
C.An Outstanding Photographer
D.Gallagher’s Summer Holidays

It’s thought that around 5 trillion pieces of plastic are currently floating in our oceans.
Both mammals and fish benefit from the clean ocean. It is reported that more than 8 million tons of plastic end up in our
oceans every year, and nearly half of the plastic we produce is single­use only.
This shoe brand, however, is riding the wave of change and is on a mission to help clean up our waters and rid the sea of
plastic bottles that can take up to 400 years to break down. Vivobarefoot’s newest footwear uses recycled plastic materials and
has created an education program that spreads awareness about how harmful plastic is for sea life.
Every pair of shoes is made up of 17 plastic water bottles taken from the ocean and turned into a sustainable, comfortable
pair of shoes, which are also healthy for your feet. And while not everyone can take part in ocean cleanups, choosing little ways
we can give back to our planet goes a long way.
Vivobarefoot’s new products include a variety of high­performance styles such as casual sneakers, running shoes, and
hiking boots. The brand hopes that its latest initiative(新方案) will help lessen the indifference to pollution and how harmful it
is for all living beings.
In the future, Vivobarefoot hopes to increase their production of shoes created from sustainable materials, and thankfully, it
is now one of many brands that aim to increase environmentalism and educate communities on how global warming affects
everyone.
This year, they’ll add more recyclable and traceable materials into more than half of their production line, and they have
plenty of creative developments in the works as well.
The shoes also have a health benefit. Based on the concept that wider, minimally designed shoes enable our foot to
function at maximum potential, wearers also experience better balance and sensory input.
8.How does the author make his point convincing?
A.By listing figures.
B.By telling a story.
C.By giving examples.
D.By making comparisons.
9.What is Vivobarefoot doing to help with the marine creatures?
A.Donating money to buy food for them.
B.Keeping the ocean free from plastic bottles.
C.Producing more shoes from sustainable materials.
D.Raising public awareness of recycling and reuse.
10.What is probably Vivobarefoot’s operation philosophy?
A.Customer­focused.
B.Service­oriented.
C.Money­saving.
D.Environmentally­friendly.
11.What can we learn from the text?
A.Vivobarefoot’s new products haven’t been released.
B.Vivobarefoot is the most popular shoe brand in the world.
C.Vivobarefoot cares about not only its business but also public services.
D.Vivobarefoot is the first company to find the new function of waste materials.

Most dog owners are convinced that their four­legged friends know exactly what they mean when they use certain words
like “sit”,“stay” or “treat”. However, researchers have always wondered whether dogs really understand human speech
or if they rely on other information to get the meaning. For example, does the word “fetch” form a picture of a stick or ball in

the dog’s mind, or does the dog bring back the object based on the owner’s voice or gesture? A new study by scientists at
Atlanta’s Emory University seems to indicate that “man’s best friend” does indeed know what the owner is saying.
The researchers began by asking the owners of twelve dogs of various kinds to train their pets to identify two toys of
different materials, such as a toy animal and a ball. Once the dogs had mastered the task, they took turns inside a special
scanner. The owners then tested their dog’s language skill by first calling out the names of the toys they had been trained to
recognize and then saying meaningless words such as “bobbu” and “bodmick” while holding up random objects the dogs
hadn’t seen before.
The scans suggested that the parts of the dogs’ brains responsible for processing sounds showed different brain patterns
when they heard words they were familiar with, compared with the ones they had never heard before. While that was not
enough to prove that the dogs were picturing their toys when they heard the word, it did indicate some sort of recognition. The
researchers believe this is an important step in understanding how dogs process language.
Something even more interesting was that the dog’s brains showed a higher level of neural(神经的) activity at the sound of
unknown words. This is the exact opposite of what happens in human brains, which get more active at the sound of familiar
words. The researchers say the dogs may become cheerful at the sound of new words to try to understand them in the hope of
delighting their masters. “Dogs want to please their owners, and perhaps also want to receive praise or food,” says Emory
neuroscientist Gregory Berns, senior author of the study.
However, though your pet may understand human speech, the scientists recommend using visual signals and smell for
training. “When people want to teach their dog a trick, they often use spoken commands because that’s what we humans
prefer,” Prichard says. “From the dog’s view, however, a visual command might be more effective, helping the dog learn the
trick faster.”
12.What’s the purpose of the new study?
A.To convince dog owners to understand their dogs.
B.To advise dog owners to treat their dogs kindly.
C.To prove dogs follow owners’ order by listening.
D.To test out how dogs get information from owners.
13.What does the author intend to do in Paragraph 2?
A.Inform the result of the research.
B.State the process of the research.
C.Stress the importance of the research.
D.Introduce the subjects of the research.
14.How do human brains and dog brains react to words?
A.Human brains become active in unfamiliar words.
B.Dog brains become delighted at unfamiliar words.
C.Human brains are not sensitive to familiar words.
D.Dog brains show no response to familiar words.
15.What do scientists advise the owners to do in dog training?
A.Give dogs oral commands.
B.Teach dogs new tricks.
C.Involve sight and smell.
D.Encourage faster learning.

Places of Interest in Wales
Conway: On the north Wales coast, Conway is where you’ll find the world’s smallest house, as well as a much larger
“house”,Conway Castle, which was built in the 13th century.
Anglesey: This beautiful island is joined to the rest of north Wales by a road bridge and a railway bridge, and it’s just a
short drive from Conway. Here you can visit the village of Llanfair Pwllgwyngyll which has the strangest name in Europe.
Don’t miss the station. The sign runs the complete length of the platform! Also on Anglesey is Beaumaris Castle, which was
started in the 13th century and to this day remains unfinished.
Snowdonia: Just a couple of hours’

Portmeirion: In 1925 Clough, Williams­Ellis bought an attractive piece of Welsh land for less than £5,000. He then set
out to show the world how a naturally beautiful castle could be built without being damaged and spent the next 50 years
building the town of Portmeirion with a style of Italy.

When Jessica came in as a baby in 2010 she could not stand. Both wings were broken. I took her to the vet’s office to give
her a chance at life.
Six weeks later, she still couldn’t stand. It got to the point where an awful decision had to be made if she couldn’t stand in
a week. It looked like death was winning. She was going to be put_down that Friday. I didn’t want to go to the center. But I
went anyway, and when I walked in everyone was smiling widely. I went immediately back to her cage; and there she was,
standing on her own, a big beautiful eagle. I was just about in tears.
We knew she could never fly, so the director asked me to use the glove to train her. I got her be used to the glove, and we
started doing education programs for schools. Miracle Pets even did a show about us.
In the spring of 2016, I was diagnosed with cancer. I had been in stage 3, which was not good. When I felt good enough, I
would take Jessica out for walks. Jessica would also come to me in my dreams and help me fight the cancer time and time
again.
Fast forward to November 2016, I went in for my last checkup. I was told that if the cancer was not all gone, my last
choice was a stem cell transplant. I went in on Monday, and I was told all the cancer was gone!
The first thing I did was take the big girl out for a walk. I hadn’t said a word to Jessica, but somehow she knew. She stared
into my eyes and wrapped me with her wings. We just stood there like that. That was a magic moment. We have been soul
mates ever since she came in.

Have you ever wondered when dogs first became “man’s best friend” and the world’s favourite pet? If you have, then
you’re not alone. When and where dogs first began living side by side with humans are questions that have stirred hot debate
among scientists. There are a few hard facts that all agree on. These include that dogs were once wolves and they were the first
animal to be domesticated( 驯养) by humans. They came into human lives about 15, 000 years ago, before the dawn of
agriculture.
Beyond that, there is little agreement. The earliest bones found that are unquestionable dogs’ and not wolves’ date from
14, 000 years ago. However, 30, 000­year­old skulls have been discovered in France and Belgium that are not pure wolves’
and some scientists think could be dogs’.
With such puzzling
evidence, many scientists are now turning to DNA to find out when and where dogs were first
domesticated. In one research project, tens of thousands of blood samples have been taken from street dogs around the world.
The plan is to compare them with those of wolves. It’s even possible to analyse DNA from ancient bones. Tiny pieces of the 30,
000­year­old skulls mentioned earlier are currently being studied, and another DNA study has already shown that ancient dogs
preserved in the Alaskan ice fields evolved from Asian wolves, not American ones.
Indeed, the ancient DNA may turn out to be more informative than the DNA of living dogs. Because dogs have
accompanied humans around the world for thousands of years, their current distribution may tell us very little of their origins.
This is why different groups of scientists believe that dogs variously originated in eastern Asia, Mongolia, Siberia, Europe or
Africa.
But why were the animals domesticated in the first place? The most recent theory is that dogs domesticated themselves,
initially living in and around our ancient villages to eat any food thrown out. Today, this is a way of life still shared by three
quarters of a billion unowned dogs worldwide.
8.Which is the only statement generally agreed on by scientists studying dogs?
A.Dogs originally were used as farm animals.
B.Dogs evolved from wolves found in Europe.
C.Dogs helped the development of agriculture.
D.Dogs were the first animal to be kept as pets.

9.Why does the writer first mention the 30, 000­year­old animals’ skulls?
A.To show that dogs were much larger in the past.
B.To prove that dogs developed from Asian wolves.
C.To suggest that dogs may have evolved much earlier.
D.To argue that dogs were first kept in France and Belgium.
10.How did scientists determine the origins of the ancient dogs found in Alaska?
A.By analyzing the age of their bones.
B.By examining the animals’ DNA.
C.By studying the shape of their skulls.
D.By comparing them with modern dogs.
11.Why did dogs start living with humans?
A.Because they were attracted by food.
B.Because they were trapped by humans.
C.Because they couldn’t survive in the wild.
D.Because they were trained to protect villages.

Classifying things is critical for our daily lives. For example, we have to detect spam mail(垃圾邮件), false political news.
When we use AI, such tasks are based on “classification technology” in machine learning—having the computer learn, using
the boundary separating positive and negative data. For example, “positive” data would be photos including a happy face, and
“negative”data photos that include a sad face. Once a classification boundary is learned, the computer can determine whether
certain data are positive or negative.
However, the difficulty with this technology is that it requires both positive and negative data for the learning process, and
negative data are not available in many cases. For instance, when a retailer(零售商) is trying to predict who will make a
purchase, they can easily find data on customers who have purchased from them(positive data), but it is basically impossible to
obtain data on customers who have never purchased from them(negative data), since they do not have access to their
competitors’ data.
According to lead author Takashi Ishida from RIKEN AIP, “Previous classification methods could not cope with the
situation where negative data were not available, but we have made it possible for computers to learn with only positive data, as
long as we have a confidence score for our positive data, constructed from information such as buying intention or the active
rate of app users. Using our new_method,_we can let computers learn a classifier only from positive data equipped with
confidence.”
According to Ishida, “This discovery could expand the range of applications where classification technology can be used.
Even in fields where machine learning has been actively used, our classification technology could be used in new situations
where only positive data can be gathered due to data regulation or business constraints(限制). In the near future, we hope to put
our technology to use in various research fields, such as natural language processing, computer vision, robotics, and
bioinformatics.”
12.How can the computer distinguish the positive data from the negative data?
A.By learning the classification boundary.
B.By updating the data collected regularly.
C.By separating happy faces and sad ones.
D.By introducing classification technology.
13.Why is the example mentioned in Paragraph 2?
A.To prove how important the positive data are.
B.To confirm that data on customers are complete.
C.To argue that retailers get their competitors’ data.
D.To explain why negative data are hard to acquire.
14.What do the underlined words “new method” in Paragraph 3 refer to?
A.Analyzing buying intention.
B.Building a confidence score.
C.Assessing the active rate of app users.
D.Equipping the computer with confidence.
15.What can be a suitable title for the text?
A.The History of Classification Technology
B.Smarter AI: Machine Learning Without Negative Data
C.Bigger Data: Computers Assisting Language Processing
D.The Comparison Between Positive Data and Negative Data

everything. If you’re an overthinker, it can be exhausting running through all the possibilities of everything. It’s not good that
the what­ifs run your life and you are trapped. 16.________
Here are some signs that you are an overthinker, even if you don’t feel you are.
·17.________
Why didn’t the girl look at me?And why did Peter look away so fast?What does it all mean?!When you’re an
overthinker, you tend to find meaning in the world around you. It’s helpful to remind yourself that things mean the meaning
you give them.
·You think more than you do.
Sometimes you think so much that you don’t end up doing anything. You weigh the choices, decide which is the best, and
compare it with a new choice. You end up doing nothing. 18.________
·You find it difficult to let things go.
When
you’ve invested a lot of time and energy into something, it can be hard to let it go when it isn’t working.
19.________The more you think about something, the more it can eat away at you.
·You want to get everything right.
You might be a perfectionist. You always do your best. But when you don’t get everything right, you seriously blame
yourself. By recognizing that this can be a strength as well as a weakness, you should know that you simply can ’ t get
everything right, despite your best efforts.
20.________ Remind yourself that you can balance your level of overthinking with more doing.
You can even teach
someone else who underthinks!

Author Walter Dean Myers died at the age of 76 after a brief illness. Walter Dean Myers was the author of more than 100
books for children and young adults and received many top awards.
The prolific author was loved for his vivid description of the lives of
African American children, and for writing books
for young people that covered different subjects.“Myers has written about all those subjects with deep understanding and a
hard­won, qualified sense of hope,” said Leonard S. Marcus in 2008.
He was born in 1937 and was adopted by Florence Dean and Herbert after his mother died while giving birth to his
younger sister. They loved him very much and his mother read to him from a very young age. Reading pushed him to discover
worlds beyond his landscape.
He began writing at an early age. He wrote well in high school and an English teacher recognized this and advised him to
keep on writing no matter what happened to him.“It’s what you do,” she said.
He dropped out of high school at 17 and joined the army. After finishing his service, he entered a dark period in his life.
Myers began writing at night to pull himself through that miserable time.
In an essay published in The New York Times earlier this year, Myers described how a short story by James Arthur Baldwin
helped change the course of his life.“I didn’t love the story, but I was lifted by it,”he wrote,
“for it took place in Harlem, and
it was a story concerned with black people like those I knew. By humanizing the people who were like me, Baldwin’s story
also humanized me. The story gave me a permission that I didn’t know I needed, the permission to write about my own
landscape, my own map.”
“I write books for the troubled boy I once was,” he wrote, “and for the boy who lives within me still.”
4.What does the second paragraph mainly talk about?
A.How popular Myers was.
B.How Myers became successful.
C.What makes Myers’ works popular.
D.What people think of Myers’ works.

5.Who discovered Myers’ writing talent?
A.James Arthur Baldwin.
B.His mother.
C.Leonard S. Marcus.
D.One of his teachers.
6.What does the underlined word “prolific” in Paragraph 2 probably mean?
A.Productive.
B.Unfortunate.
C.Conservative.
D.Humorous.
7.Why was the short story by James Arthur Baldwin so important for Myers?
A.It helped him survive the dark period.
B.It inspired him to pursue his writing career.
C.He learned many writing techniques from it.
D.The author of the story permitted him to write.

We are what we eat. That is an old expression, but one worth knowing. A recent look at diets around the world shows that
people who eat healthy food—and not too much of it—live longer. But which areas of the world have
the best diets?
Researchers found that foods in some of the healthiest diets—Mediterranean diet, New Nordic diet, Japanese diet and French
diet—may be very different, but they are all heavy on local and seasonal foods, which include more vegetables and seafood and
less red meat.
Mediterranean diet contains lots of fruits, vegetables, whole grains, nuts and olive oil. The diet has proper amounts of fish
and poultry(家禽肉). Red meat and foods high in sugar and salt are not big parts of this diet.
New Nordic diet has whole grains like oats and rye, vegetables such as carrots, broccoli and eggs, seafood, fruits, oil, low­
fat milk and cheese. Sugary desserts are not common in this diet.
Japanese people are some of the longest living people on the planet, with women up to 87 years old and men up to 80. The
Japanese diet is the reason for such lengths of life. The diet has many foods that are low in calories and high in nutrients.
Japanese people eat a lot of seaweed, tofu, rice, vegetables and fish. The tradition there is to stop eating when your stomach
feels 80 percent full.
However, French people eat fatty foods but do not get fat. And they live a long time. This phenomenon is called the
“French Paradox”.
The reason why the French eat fatty foods without getting fat may be simple. They eat less. Serving sizes
in French restaurants and of products sold in stores are smaller than those in most countries. And generally speaking, most
French people do not snack. This means they do not eat food between meals.
8.What do we know about the healthiest diets around the world?
A.They contain abundant calories.
B.They tend to be expensive.
C.They share certain similarities.
D.They reflect popular tastes.
9.What is considered as a harmful eating habit in Japanese tradition?
A.Going low in calories.
B.Eating to the fullest.
C.Having much seafood.
D.Picking many foods.
10.How does the author develop the central idea in the last 4 paragraphs?
A.By building connections.
B.By exploring reasons.
C.By listing examples.
D.By analyzing figures.
11.Which can be the most suitable title for the text?
A.What Is the Healthiest Diet on Earth?
B.How Does the Old Expression Serve?
C.Why Is a Healthy Diet So Important?
D.Where Can We Feed Ourselves Well?

A team of engineers at Harvard University created the first robotic fly. Designed to do what a fly does naturally, the tiny
machine is the size of a fat housefly. Its mini wings allow it to stay in the air and perform controlled flight tasks.
“The added difficulty with a project like this is that actually none of its components is off the shelf and so we have to
develop them all on our own,” said Robert Wood, a Harvard engineering professor.
They engineered a series of systems to start and drive the robotic fly. “The seemingly simple system which just moves the
wings has lots of interdependence(互相依赖) of the individual components, each of which individually has to perform well, but
then has to be matched well to everything it’s connected to,”said Wood.
While this first robotic flyer is linked to a small, off­board power source, the goal is eventually to equip it with a built­in
power source, so that it might someday perform data­gathering work at rescue sites, in farmers’ fields or on the battlefield.

“Basically it should be able to take off, land and fly around,” he said.
Wood says the design offers a new way to study flight mechanics and control at insect­scale. Yet, the power, sensing and
computation technologies on board could have much broader applications. “You can start thinking about using them to answer
open scientific questions, you know, to study biology in ways that would be difficult with the animals, but using these robots
instead,”he said. “So there are a lot of technologies and open interesting scientific questions that are really what drives us on
a day­to­day basis.”
12.What is the typical characteristic of the robotic fly?
A.It’s automatic.
B.It’s very small.
C.It’s controllable.
D.It’s quite powerful.
13.We can infer from the passage that the robotic flyer can ________.
A.act as a spy plane
B.help do farm work
C.fly at a very high speed
D.answer many scientific questions
14.What is Wood’s idea about the robotic fly according to the last paragraph?
A.It is highly questionable.
B.It has wide practical applications.
C.It gives scientists interest in flying machines.
D.It points to a new
direction in studying biology.
15.What can be the best title for the passage?
A.Harvard’s Study in the Field of Insects
B.A Breakthrough in Engineering Science
C.An Interesting Invention—Robotic Fly
D.Robotic Fly—a Copy of the Real Life Insect

A
When traveling on a budget, every dollar counts. Unfortunately,
the cost of tickets alone can make a serious hole in your
savings. Don’t let that stop you from taking your dream vacation, though. According to Jeff Klee, CEO of CheapAir.com, there
is a “sweet spot” to get the biggest bang for your buck.
“The most important rule is fairly obvious: don’t wait until the last minute, as that rarely works out,” he said in a
statement.
“But beyond that,
you also want to be careful not to buy too early.”
Still, that’s easier said than done. Finding the most cost-efficient time to book is tough. Luckily, somebody did the math
—so you don’t have to. Data crunchers from the online travel agency CheapAir.com surveyed over 917 million fares to
determine the day with the cheapest rates.
Here’s what they found: while prices tend to stay the same between 320 and 106 days before a trip, they start dropping at
the 105-day mark. That said, you might be tempted to book the moment prices drop. But hold on! You’ll save even more
money by booking precisely 70 days before your trip. According to CheapAir.com, you can save 48 percent of the ticket’s total
cost by using this trick.
After that date,
airfares will begin to increase again.
And don’t even think about booking any later
than 20 days ahead of time, as prices will be soaring.
So, what are you waiting for? Start planning your next dream vacation, and book accordingly. Your wallet will thank you
—guaranteed.
1.When can we book our plane tickets to save the most money?
A.The later, the better.
B.As early as possible.
C.105 days before our trip.
D.70 days before our trip.

2.How much can the trick help us save if the ticket costs $400 totally?
A.$48.
B.$192.
C.$208.
D.$352.
3.What’s the purpose of the author in writing this text?
A.To explain what a “sweet spot” is.
B.To attract people to traveling by plane.
C.To show the ways of booking plane tickets.
D.To tell people how to buy cheap plane tickets.

My son Sam is 16 and autistic(自闭症的). There’s a lot going on in that beautiful and brilliant mind of his, but even on a
good day he can be easily at a loss. Throw in some diagnosed anxiety, an inability to read social cues(提示) and an unexpected
change to his daily routine, and you have the way to deal with a very public breakdown(精神崩溃).
It was Sam’s very first day at high school. We’d set up a plan for how he’d get home: I’d pick him up outside the shop
near his school at 3:30 pm and I believed this was a perfect plan. Unknown to me, very bad weather was on its way and I was
unable to warn him to take shelter.
With the combination of his dead phone battery and my dead car battery, I was running late and unable to communicate
that to him. As a result, he was left alone and extremely frightened. He became very upset outside the shop, exactly where I’d
told him to wait.
This was when a beautiful older Vietnamese lady not only went to check_on him, but took him inside her shop, calmed
him down, got my phone number from him and called me.
Five years later he continued to go into her shop every afternoon, bought a drink, had a chat and she sent him home with
enough bread and rolls to feed a small nation.
Sam will graduate this year, and I’m increasingly feeling the need to drop by the shop to let this wonderful lady know that
she has saved Sam, and that she has saved me. I’m not sure if I can communicate all of this, but at least I will get to thank her.
There are people I will not get to thank, though—the many kind strangers who have been there for Sam. And believe me, if
you’re wondering if this world is a complete mess right now, I’m here to say that it is not.
So I guess this is a love letter to those of you who have helped a stranger out of the goodness of your heart. Please know
you are appreciated, and that your beautiful heart and kindness are appreciated, and perhaps unknowingly, you have made a
great difference in someone’s life.
4.What can we learn about Sam from the first paragraph?
A.He is rather slow with his studies.
B.He can deal with sudden changes well.
C.He has difficulty in dealing with things.
D.He tries hard to learn how to read social cues.
5.The underlined part “check on” in Paragraph 4 probably means “________”.
A.discover
B.visit
C.recognize
D.examine
6.What happened to Sam after his first day at high school?
A.He could get on well with his classmates.
B.He made good friends with the nice lady.
C.He brought the lady some food to thank her.
D.He became willing to communicate with others.
7.What is the author’s purpose in writing the passage?
A.To express her thanks to kind people.
B.To remind us all to help autistic people.
C.To show how difficult life is for autistic people.
D.To tell us how to make a difference in others’ lives.

Do you find it difficult to put down your mobile phone?
If yes, you’re not alone. These days, many people suffer from the stress of FOMO(fear of missing out). They reach for
their mobile phones when they wake up in the morning, and for the rest of the day, they constantly scroll down the timelines of
their social media apps to get the latest updates.
Despite the
convenience
smartphones
bring, many people struggle with their digital habits.
As Sameer Samat, vice president of product management, said in his speech at the 2018 Google I/O developer conference
on May 8, 70% of people don’t want to spend so much time on their phones.
This is why during the conference Google introduced an app called Dashboard for the new version of its Android operating
system. This new app includes well­being functions that aim to help users manage the time they spend on their digital devices.
It all starts with a bird’s­eye view. Dashboard allows users to look at all the details of their phone habits. For example,
users can see how many times they’ve unlocked their phone and how many times they’ve checked their social media apps, as
【公众号:实用视界 +VX:18071191557】
第55 页共88 页
well as how much time they spend on each app every day.
Once the users see this information,they’ll be able to make some changes. With the AppTimer functions, users can set a
time limit for how long they can use each app for every day. After they’ve hit the limit, they won’t be able to launch the app
until the next day.
But even if users become more mindful of their usage, they’re still likely to be drawn in by notifications(通知). This is
where the Shush feature comes in. It automatically silences incoming calls and notifications when a user puts his/her phone face
down.
If people truly want to make full use of their free time instead of losing hours using their smartphones, these new functions
are just one way of doing that.
After all, who needs to use an app to stop you from using other apps when the easiest answer would be just to use your
willpower?
8.People under the pressure of FOMO may ________.
A.have trouble with their sleep
B.find it hard to focus on anything
C.be addicted to their mobile phones
D.prefer to download the latest apps
9.What inspires Google to launch Dashboard?
A.The limited functions of the current Android system.
B.People’s complaint about their smartphones.
C.Samat’s impressive speech at a conference.
D.Mobile phone users’ great demand.
10.________ can track users’ phone habits in detail.
A.Android
B.AppTimer
C.Shush
D.Dashboard
11.What can be learned from the passage?
A.Dashboard turned out to be popular.
B.Dashboard is a perfect choice to manage time properly.
C.Strong willpower is the easiest way to avoid smartphone addiction.
D.People are exploring other ways to stop overusing smartphones.
D
We’ve been covering standing desks for a long time now because experts agree that sitting all day is killing us. We want to
be productive while also keeping our bodies healthy. Over the years, there have been several solutions to this from fixed
standing desks to adjustable ones, portable desks to ones that change into shelves.
However, the most high­tech and elegant solution has to be this new smart desk called the Stir Kinetic Desk. The desk
learns your daily behavior and moves between a sitting and standing height regularly throughout the day to keep you moving
without interrupting your work flow.
You can program specific sitting and standing intervals or let the desk set the schedule. If you tend to sit while returning
emails in the morning, but always want to stand during that afternoon conference call, the desk will learn those regular habits
and adjust the schedule to fit them. Of course, the desk can always be manually lowered or raised by using the touchscreen on
the lower left corner of the desk.
When switching positions, the desk gently dips and rises to let you know that a change is coming up. If you’re not ready
to switch positions at that time, you can tap the touchscreen to stay sitting or standing for a while longer.
The built­in touchscreen also keeps track of your daily sitting and standing times and tells you how many calories you’ve
burned. You can even set goals for how long or how often you want to stand. The desk also works with fitness devices like the
Fitbit to track your movements.
All of that smart technology doesn’t come cheap though. The M1 desk, which is the everyday model, runs a steep $2, 990,
while the more executive model with added features, the F1, goes for $4, 190.
While expensive, it’s worth that thinking of how much time we spend at our desks. Much like a good mattress(床垫), a
good desk that works with you is worth the investment. Hopefully in a few years these smart, integrated desks will be more
common and less expensive.
12.The Stir Kinetic Desk has been designed to ________.
A.help users with their work
B.keep users moving all the time
C.get users to exercise while working
D.remind users of their working schedule
13.Which is the feature of the touchscreen of the desk?
A.It can tell users when to change positions.
B.It can track users’ changes of positions.
C.It can keep users in a fixed position.
D.It can detect users’ health condition.

第56 页共88 页
14.Which of the following can best describe the desk?
A.Productive but challenging.
B.Convenient but unaffordable.
C.Complex and impractical.
D.Multifunctional and intelligent.
15.What does the author intend to tell us in the last paragraph?
A.To spend money on such a desk is rewarding.
B.We should get such a desk as soon as possible.
C.It won’t be long before the desk is widely used.
D.Desks play a very important role in our daily life.

It is not as simple as opening the door and hitting the track in winter. There are a few things you can do to ensure you are
getting the most out of your run and, importantly, not doing more harm than good.
Warm up, cool down
16.________. Your muscles need some time to warm up when it’s cold, so take it easy when you set off and do a few
stretches once you’re finished.
Drink water
You might not feel hot, but that’s because sweat evaporates(蒸发) more quickly into the chilly, dry air. So be sure to drink
water before, during and after cold­weather workouts. 17.________. A belt bottle conveniently attaches to your waist so you
don’t have to carry it and can have a drink whenever you feel like it.
18.________
Running in cotton is a bad idea. Wear thin, breathable layers of synthetic(合成的) clothing that help protect you from the
wind and snow, but still let out heat and moisture. Thirty percent of your body heat escapes through your hands and forty
percent through your head. Wear a hat, or beanie(无檐小便帽), and gloves so your circulatory system can distribute warm
blood to the rest of your body. 19.________.
Run into the wind
20 .________. Obviously, it will be an easier passage home with some extra help from Mother Nature. But, more
importantly, you won’t have the wind in your face for the second half of your run, when you are more likely to be sweating and
catch a chill.
A.Dress right
B.Keep warm
C.Don’t go too fast, too soon
D.Start and finish in the same way
E.Don’t wait to drink water until you feel thirsty

8.A
解析:推理判断题。根据第二段第一句“According to a new study published in the journal Current Biology in
September, our brain has the ability to skip the temporary darkness when we blink.”可知,九月份发表在《当代生物学》杂

which is responsible for visual memory was activated. This same area showed less activity when two patterns were in the same
direction”可知,当两种模式的方向不一致时,掌握视觉记忆的大脑区域被激活;当两种模式在同一方向时,这个区域
显示出较少的活动。据此可知,不同的方向能激活视觉记忆,故D 项正确。
11.C

Dear_Peter,
Glad to hear that you are going to take a trip to China this August. As I know, you are always interested in Chinese culture
and want to learn some Chinese. Therefore, I suggest that you choose Chinese daily dialogue as a start, like greeting people,
asking for directions and bargaining for souvenirs, which can help you a lot during your trip.
Learning a foreign language needs great efforts. Apparently, I’d like to be your teacher and send you an e­book with my
teaching schedule later. Besides let’s have an online class over the Internet every weekend, through which I will try my best to
make your learning easier and surely you can speak some fluent Chinese before your arrival.

Yours,

Dear Peter,
I’m writing to share a piece of good news with you.
Our school will run a Peking Opera Club for international students. It starts from October 11th and ends on October 20th,
lasting ten days. Some famous artists will offer basic courses on this national treasure, including singing, dialogues, movements
as well as facial makeup. What they want to communicate through the courses is that Peking Opera is not just an art, but a
symbol of traditional Chinese culture which deserves to be passed down from generation to generation.
Since you’re always keen on Peking Opera, I sincerely hope you’ll seize this chance. Join the club and have a good time
