【題目】For you, the “Clear and Bright” day that falls in every April might be no more than just another holiday — the fact that it comes with three days off school matters to most students【1】 (much) than the fact that it is part of the 24 solar terms (二十四節(jié)氣).

But this ancient system that Chinese people have used 【2】(keep) track of the time of year was added to the UNESCO list of Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity （人類非物質(zhì)文化遺產(chǎn)）on Nov. 30.

To be fair, the terms do sound old; they 【3】 (invent) thousands of years ago to offer weather information for agricultural 【4】 (activity). But the truth is【5】 they still have an influence on our lives today, even if we don’t realize it most of the time. For example, people from【6】 (north) China are in the habit of eating dumplings 【7】 the day of Winter Solstice (冬至). And on Start of Autumn, some treat 【8】 (they) to a big feast, especially of meat, something they call “putting on autumn weight”, or tieqiubiao. According to Chinese writer and academic Yu Shicun, the system is a philosophy of time, 【9】 applies to everything. And this means they are 【10】 (likely) to die out.

【答案】

【1】more

【2】to keep

【3】were invented

【4】activities

【5】that

【6】northern

【7】on

【8】themselves

【9】which

【10】unlikely

【解析】本文為介紹說(shuō)明文。文章介紹了中國(guó)的清明節(jié)和其它幾個(gè)二十四節(jié)氣以及每個(gè)節(jié)氣中的飲食傳統(tǒng)。

【2】考查非謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞。此處指“用來(lái)跟蹤記錄一年中的時(shí)間的古老體系”，根據(jù)句意可知，應(yīng)是不定式表目的。故填to keep。

【3】考查動(dòng)詞時(shí)態(tài)和語(yǔ)態(tài)。根據(jù)語(yǔ)境可知，此處描述的是過(guò)去的動(dòng)作，意為“它們是在數(shù)千年前被發(fā)明的”，應(yīng)使用被動(dòng)語(yǔ)態(tài)。故填were invented。

【4】考查名詞的數(shù)。根據(jù)常識(shí)可知，此處指“（各種）農(nóng)業(yè)活動(dòng)”，所以應(yīng)使用名詞復(fù)數(shù)形式。故填activities。

【6】考查詞性轉(zhuǎn)化。根據(jù)語(yǔ)境可知，此處指“北部的中國(guó)”。故填northern。

【7】考查介詞。在具體的哪一天，應(yīng)使用介詞on。故填on。

【8】考查反身代詞。句意：在秋初，一些善待自己一頓大餐。根據(jù)句意可知，此處應(yīng)使用they的反身代詞。故填themselves。

【9】考查非限定性定語(yǔ)從句。此處為非限定性定語(yǔ)從句，先行詞是the system，連詞在從句中作主語(yǔ)。故填which。

【10】考查反義詞。根據(jù)語(yǔ)境可知，此處應(yīng)指“這意味著它們（這些節(jié)氣）不太可能滅絕”。故填unlikely。

【題目】Sometimes very odd things show up in ordinary places. In the 1800s, a strange sight began to be reported by farmers. Then in the 1970s, this strange event began to happen more and more often. People traveled for miles to stand in the fields and take photos of something they couldn't easily explain. What were they looking at? It was the crop circles — large and complex designs set into the middle of ordinary farm field. No one could understand how these huge designs were made.

Crop circles are found most often in fields of wheat, corn, or rice. They are usually created overnight, although some are reported to have appeared during the day. They have been seen all around the world, in more than 70 different countries. Scientists have found that the plants inside a crop circle are drier than the ones outside it. The plant stems (莖) are bent and not broken in most crop circles, and sometimes the soil in the design has more iron than the soil outside of the design. Unfortunately, these facts alone do not help scientists answer their questions about crop circles. These facts only make them more mysterious.

Some people believe crop circles are made by UFOs (Unidentified Flying Objects) landing in farm fields. Others think aliens are leaving us messages in the beautiful designs. Still others believe Earth energy under the ground makes plants bend over in designs. Some people say they actually made the crop circles with special equipment. Scientists have found some crop circles that are certainly made by people, but they are usually a little different from other crop circles. So who makes crop circles and why they make them can't be explained to this very day.

【1】It's generally thought that crop circles _____.

A. have very frightening designs

B. happen in the same places

C. are found in terrible places

D. are made during the night

【2】What happens to the paints inside the crop circles?

A. They are broken.

B. They die very soon.

C. They are bent.

D. They need little water.

【3】Which of the following have the scientists proved?

A. Earth energy is one reason for crop circles' appearance.

B. UFOs help create some crop circles.

C. There actually are crop circles made by aliens.

D. Some crop circles are man-made.

【4】What is the best title for the text?

A. The History of Crop Circles

B. Different Designs of Crop Circles

C. Crop Circles: The Unsolved Mystery

D. Crop Circles: The Great Influence on Farms

【題目】閱讀理解。

There has been a dramatic increase in the number of natural disasters over the past few years, and it is assumed that global warming and climate change could cause even more disasters in the future. Some of the world’s leading cities are facing disasters like floods and heat waves.

London

London’s flood defences are getting older. Since 1982, the Thames Barrier(水閘)has protected the city from the threat of flooding, but it was only designed to last until 2030 and close once every two or three years. About 26 years later the barrier now closes five or six times a year and according to Environment Agency predictions, by 2050 the barrier will be closed on almost every tide if the problem is not addressed.

There are 26 underground stations, 400 schools, 16 hospitals, an airport and 80 billion worth of property in London’s flood risk area, so large scale flooding would be disastrous.

Paris

Over a six week period in July and August 2003, more than 1 1,400—mainly elderly people—died in France from dehydration(脫水)and extremely high body temperature in a deadly heat wave. Heat waves of similar intensity(強(qiáng)度)are expected every seven years by 2050, so what can be done to make sure such a disaster does not happen again?

One solution is to have air-conditioners installed in elderly care homes. But this is considered a short-term solution, as the increase in demand for electricity also increases carbon emissions(排放).

In Paris the local authorities are encouraging architects to design new types of buildings such as the building “Flower Tower,” which uses a covering of bamboo to act as a natural air-conditioner.

Shanghai

Shanghai is the fastest growing city on Earth. It has a population of 18 million and is only 4 meters above sea level. Sea levels are predicted to rise by 20 cm within the next century.

An estimated 250，000 people move to Shanghai every year in search of work, placing extra demands on energy consumption. China relies heavily on coal—fired power stations, but these emissions increase temperatures and, in turn, warmer seas increase the risk of typhoons.

【1】What problem should be settled now in London?

A．How to protect the city’s property

B．Where to build its flood defences

C．How to use the Thames Barrier to protect the city

D．How to improve the function of the old flood defences

【2】Which of the following measures can’t solve the heat wave disaster in Paris?

A．Putting up new types of buildings with a covering of bamboo

B．Having air-conditioners installed in elderly care homes

C．Forbidding the city to build“Flower Tower”

D．Encouraging architects to design new types of buildings

【3】The major threats to Shanghai are ．

A．increasing population and coal-fired power stations

B．rising sea levels and typhoons

C．extremely high temperature and rising sea levels

D．extra demands on energy consumption and typhoons

【4】The purpose of the passage is ．

A．to tell us how to protect the big cities

B．to give advice on how to defend natural disasters

C．to explain what causes flood and heat waves

D．to warn us of the increasing natural disasters in big cities

【5】Which of the following would be the best title for the passage?

A．Big Cities Facing Big Disasters

B．Big Disasters in the Future

C．The Increase of Natural Disasters

D．Solutions to Natural Disasters

【題目】The German company said 5,000 of the "Futurecraft 4D" shoes will be available at retail stores in the fall arid winter.As it is pressed for time,it still plans to start mass producing them next year and expects to have made more than 100,000 pairs by the end of 2018.The company would not disclose where the shoes will be manufactured.

Adidas cooperated with Silicon Valley-based start up Carbon to create the shoe,which uses a new technology called digital light synthesis（合成）.

Although the common 3D printed materials are often rigid（僵硬的）,the new materials are flexible with Silicon Valley-based start up Carbon's technology.

The technology works by using UV lasers to project a pattern for a midsole（鞋底夾層）liquid.It tums the liquid into a solid and the result is a flexible,but more durable midsole.

The technology could make the most of the time and money to produce the shoes in large quantities which may be loved by humans in the future.

"We can produce up to 100 times faster than 3D printing and additive manufacturing processes,"an Adidas spokesperson told CNNTech.

【題目】If you live in the United States, the law says you can't have a fulltime job until you are 16 years old. At 14 or 15, you can work part-time after school or on weekends, and during summer you can work 40 hours each week. Does all that mean that if you are younger than 14, you can't earn(賺) your own money? Of course not! Kids who are between the ages of 10 and 13 can earn money by doing lots of things.

Valerie, 11, told us that she made money by cleaning up other people's yards. Lena, 13, makes money by knitting(織) dog sweaters and selling them to her neighbors, and Riesa said she had started taking art classes and showing her work to people. People have asked her to draw pictures for them and they pay her for them. Jasmine, 13, writes articles for different magazines!

Earning is learning. By working to earn your own money, you are learning the skills you will need to succeed in life. These skills can include things like getting along with others, using technology(技術(shù)) and using your time. Some people think that asking for money is a lot easier than earning it; however, when you make your own money, you don't have to depend on someone else. The five dollars that you earn will probably make you feel a lot better in your hand than the twenty dollars you ask for.

【1】Kids can have fulltime jobs at the age of ________ in the USA.

A. 17 B. 14

C. 13 D. 10

【2】According to the passage, which of the following is Not True?

C. kids can learn skills if they try to earn money on their own

D. if kids try to earn money, they won't have enough time to study
