【題目】Canada: off the beaten track — three to see

Rocky Mountains

The Rockies run along the Alberta-British Columbia border and are inside two huge national parks — Banff to the south and Jasper to the north. Banff was Canada’s first wildlife reserve and these days the town of Banff is the most popular tourist destination in the country. But Jasper National Park is larger, wilder, and less well-explored. Between the parks of Banff and Jasper is the Columbia Icefield, a huge bowl of ice made up of about thirty glaciers. If you don’t like ice, the Rockies offer wildlife walks, swimming, camping, hiking, canoeing, mountain climbing, and plenty of places to stay. Accommodation costs（住宿費(fèi)）are usually lower at the Jasper end of this superb mountain playground.

Lunenburg

Lunenburg is south from Halifax, along a foggy coast of rocky seas, fishing villages, and historic towns. It is a beautiful little shipbuilding town and a UNESCO World Heritage site. Fishing has always been big in Lunenburg: most of Atlantic Canada’s deep-sea fishing boats leave from here, and North America’s biggest fish-processing factory is located in the town. Lunenburg still has many wooden buildings and as a result feels like an 18th century British colonial（殖民時(shí)期的）town. You can visit the town’s Fisheries Museum or just wander around, looking at the wooden houses in the old streets — and of course have a dinner of seafood.

Churchill

One of the few places in the north that is “easy” to get to, Churchill is a 1.5-day train journey from Winnipeg. Churchill is a major port, but eco-tourism is becoming more and more important. Although it is freezing, many visitors come to see the polar bears, whales, Arctic foxes, and if they are lucky, the Northern Lights. Churchill calls itself the “Polar Bear Capital of the World”, and for a good reason: the town sits right in the middle of the animals’ migration route, and the cute but deadly white bears sometimes wander into the town. Tours to see the bears from September to November are the most popular attraction.

【1】Which of the following was Canada’s first wildlife reserve?

A.Banff.B.Jasper.

C.Halifax.D.Winnipeg.

【2】What do we know about Lunenburg’s fish-processing factory?

A.It is now a museum.B.It is a wooden building.

C.It was built in the 18th century.D.It is the largest in North America.

【3】What do most visitors to Churchill want to see?

A.Whales.B.Polar bears.

C.Arctic foxes.D.The Northern Light.

【答案】

【1】A

【2】D

【3】B

【解析】

本文是應(yīng)用文，介紹了加拿大三個(gè)不為人們常去的旅游景點(diǎn)。

【1】

細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)Rocky Mountains線路的介紹中“Banff was Canada’s first wildlife reserve可知，”Banff是加拿大第一個(gè)野生動物保護(hù)區(qū)。故選A項(xiàng)。

【2】

細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)Lunenburg線路的介紹中“North America’s biggest fish-processing factory is located in the town.”可知，Lunenburg小鎮(zhèn)有北美最大的魚類加工廠。故選D項(xiàng)。

【3】

推理判斷題。根據(jù)Churchill線路的介紹中“Churchill calls itself the “Polar Bear Capital of the World””,和“Tours to see the bears from September to November are the most popular attraction.”（Churchill自稱為“世界北極熊之都”，“9月至11月的觀熊旅游是最受歡迎的景點(diǎn)。）”由此判斷出大多數(shù)游客到Churchill是為了看北極熊。故選B項(xiàng)。

Wolf Warrior Ⅱ, which opens across the country on July 27, 2017, was the biggest hit of the summer. My family went to see the film on last week. We arrived at the cinema ahead of time, finding it was crowded and people were talking about the film excited. I couldn’t wait see my favorite star Wu Jing, whom plays a Chinese soldier in the film. It’s a fun film combined lots of action and some humor with “feelings” for friend and families. We were all moved by the words at an end of the film. I will keep them in mind that my great motherland are always behind me.

【題目】The following simple exercise routine works as well as prescription medication(處方藥) without side effects.

A jog a day could keep your headaches at bay; regular cardio workouts(有氧鍛煉) may prevent migraines(偏頭痛), a growing body of research suggests.

Migraine patients had fewer headaches after doing 40-minute cycling workouts three times a week for three months, according to a Swedish study.

The exercise routine worked just as well as one of the top migraine-preventing drugs—topamirate, but without side effects of depression and tremors(顫抖).

“Cardio workouts can help with regular headaches, too,” says Alexander Mauskop, M.D., director of the New York Headache Center in Manhattan.

There are a couple of theories on how it works.

“Breaking a sweat may relieve stress,” says Dr. Mauskop. Headaches are often triggered by stress, and if you remove the trigger, you release the pain.

The feel-good chemicals produced when you exercise actually block your pain sensors, acting as a natural painkiller.

Since headaches can be caused by many different factors like genetics, lack of sleep, or certain foods, the cardio workout won’t be the solution for everyone, Dr. Mauskop says. But one German study found that it helped 65 percent of patients, which makes it as effective as the best medicines on the market.

Dr. Mauskop recommends his patients do a half-hour reasonable intensity(強(qiáng)度) cardio workout, like jogging, biking, or swimming three times a week. These workouts are meant to be slow and steady, as opposed to high-intensity intervals that alternate between all-out runs and rest.

Pushing yourself too much or increasing the intensity too quickly can trigger headaches in some people, so make sure your heart rate doesn’t jump above 150 BPM. If you don’t have a heart rate monitor, then breathe only through your nose. You’ll know you’re going too hard if you can’t keep up that breathing pattern.

Your migraines could start disappearing in a couple of weeks, Dr. Mauskop says.

【1】According to the passage, the author may agree that _______.

A. jogging, swimming and fishing are cardio workouts.

B. neither cardio workouts nor topamirate has side effects

C. migraine patients may be cured by regular cardio workouts

D. cardio workouts will be the solution for everyone with migraines

【2】The underlined word “triggered” in Paragraph 7 can be replaced by _______.

A. cured B. released

C. caused D. monitored

【3】What would be the best title?

A. A cure for headaches B. Side effects of migraines

C. The causes of headaches D. Advantages of cardio workouts.

【題目】 When I stepped out of Heathrow Airport, the British accents were music to my ears! The roads were so empty and traffic was so organized, with open spaces everywhere and so few people on the streets—what a difference from where 1 came—Mumbai. The difference was even more obvious after I had spent 21 years of my life living in that place. The streets were unfamiliar, and the faces were all foreign.

I boarded my bus for my university town. I felt like I had been in a fairytale book—the small houses, the quiet streets and the well-dressed people among other things. A small and beautiful three-storeyed building is quite a rarity back home and here, I have yet to see a building taller than that! Back home in India, the kind of rent I pay here could have afforded me a luxurious(豪華的） 2 bedroom-hall-kitchen apartment in a good location. But my accommodation here is the size of my bathroom back home! It’s just a fact... reality can be rude at times!

I really cherish the first day of my new university. I’ve met so many students from countries that I didn’t even know. But living alone in a new place, away from the protection of my family and friends, is a different experience altogether—a wonderful experience of further education!

It's been almost two months now. The novelty(新奇)is gradually disappearing, and the dust is settling down. It’s all just daily now but I feel fully settled. I really like this place. It feels like home!

【1】What does the underlined part “that place” in paragraph 1 refer to?

A.Heathrow Airport.B.Britain.

C.Mumbai.D.A university of India.

【2】What is the author’s first impression of Britain?

A.Dirty and noisy.B.Different but poor.

C.Hopeful and inspiring.D.Strange but beautiful.

【3】What does the author probably do？

A.An international student.B.A tourist from India.

C.A British college teacher.D.An unknown writer.

【4】What can we know from the last paragraph?

A.The author is less interested in everything because of dust.

B.The author still feels curious about everything around.

C.The author has been used to the new environment.

D.The author feels like going home after nearly two months.

【題目】 Bananas are one of the healthiest fruits you can eat, being loaded with protein, fiber, vitamins A, B6, and C, etc. Bananas are delicious on their own as well. But we’re not here today to talk about the banana fruit, but rather its peels. Generally thrown away as waste, banana peels actually bring about different uses.

Starting off with a topical benefit, banana peels are great for relieving the painful itch of bug bites. Science hasn’t figured out why it works, but you can’t argue with results. People who have tried it report that it is really useful.

There are lots of expensive ways to whiten teeth, and a lot of them use bleaching agents which weaken teeth and can cause sensitivity. But guess what? Banana peels can whiten teeth naturally and gently due to their potassium content.

Banana peels contain a lot of antioxidants that are great for your skin. To reduce the look of lines and wrinkles, simply rub a banana peel directly on the affected areas and wash your face 30 minutes later.

It is fiber once again that can lower your cholesterol levels, which is critical to maintaining a healthy heart. Banana peels contain more soluble fiber than the fruit itself, so throwing away the peel wastes a valuable opportunity to bump your intake. And finally, you can actually rub a banana peel on shoes, leather, and silver articles to clean them up and make them shine.

Whether you eat them or use them, banana peels don’t save very well. Once removed from the fruit, they blacken pretty quickly. It's best to prepare and consume banana peels right away. However, one thing is for sure—you will stop throwing these valuable wrappers in the trash after you discover all the incredible things they can do.

【1】Why can banana peels be used to whiten teeth?

A.They will cause sensitivity to our teeth.

B.They are much cheaper than bleaching agents.

C.They can make our teeth white while doing no harm.

D.The effect is better than any other things.

【2】What do we know about banana peels’ function?

A.They can stop the bites of some insects.

B.They can clean leather shoes and gold jewellery.

C.They can act as a facial mask and make us look younger.

D.They can keep our heart healthy by increasing our cholesterol levels.

【3】What should we do with bananas according to the last paragraph?

A.Consume them right away.B.Throw their peels in the trash.

C.Try to save their peels in good condition.D.Make use of their peels soon after being removed.
