Here, we uncover some other salt lakes around the world. Salt Sea The most famous of the lot—the Salt Sea—is a natural place to start. It’s technically not a sea at all, but a land salt lake. Its waters are mainly drawn from the Jordan River, and the high salinity (盐度) means no life can survive here, so don’t expect any colorful fish. However, much amusement results from the sea’s buoyancy (浮力): bring some reading material to the waters and lie back. Nature will do the rest. Lake Assal Surrounded by black volcano rocks, Lake Assal takes the title of being the lowest point in Africa. Vast salt fields mark its edges; the lake has long been at the center of the area’s salt trade, on which the region’s African locals still rely. Though the area might not be suitable to live in, the waters are rich in minerals and related to health benefits. Don Juan Pond Don Juan Pond might not win any prizes for its beauty—at four inches deep, it’s little more than a pond, but worth visiting. Its salinity content of almost 40 percent makes it one of the saltiest bodies of water on Earth, meaning it doesn’t freeze even when Antarctic temperatures drop to -50℃. And with suggestions that water in a similar form could exist on Mars, there’s more than one reason for scientists to study this fascinating dry, cold environment. Great Salt Lake The biggest salt lake in the western hemisphere (半球) and the one that gave Salt Lake City its name, the Great Salt Lake finds its home in northern Utah. What makes the lake well-known is not only the lake’s blue and green waters and white-sand beaches, but Great Salt Lake State Park and Antelope Island State Park both offer super hiking and biking trails, and great long views. 1. What can you do in the Salt Sea? A. Appreciate some colorful fishes. B. Experience floating on the water. C. Enjoy fascinating natural views. D. Witness the eruption of volcanoes. 2. What do we know about Lake Assal? A. It’s known for being the world’s lowest point. B. It plays a significant role in local economy. C. It’s one of the saltiest water bodies on Earth. D. It attracts scientists to study its environment. 3. Which place would you go to if you like taking outdoor exercise? A. Salt Sea. B. Lake Assal. C. Don Juan Pond. D. Great Salt Lake. 【答案】1. B 2. B 3. D 【解析】 【导语】本文为应用文，主要介绍了四个咸水湖的相关情况。 【1题详解】 细节理解题。根据Salt Sea部分的“However, much amusement results from the sea’s buoyancy (浮力): bring some reading material to the waters and lie back. Nature will do the rest. (然而，海洋的浮力带来了很多乐趣：带一些阅读材料到水里，然后躺下来。自然会完成剩下的事情。)”可知，Salt Sea强大的浮力会使人浮在水面上。故选B。 【2题详解】 细节理解题。根据Lake Assal部分“Vast salt fields mark its edges; the lake has long been at the center of the area’s salt trade, on which the region’s African locals still rely. (广阔的盐田标志着它的边缘；长期以来，这个湖一直是该地区食盐贸易的中心，该地区的非洲当地人仍然依赖于此。)”可知，Lake Assal在当地的经济发展中起着重要的作用。故选B。 【3题详解】 细节理解题。根据Great Salt Lake部分的“What makes the lake well-known is not only the lake’s blue and green waters and white-sand beaches, but Great Salt Lake State Park and Antelope Island State Park both offer super hiking and biking trails, and great long views. (让这个湖闻名于世的不仅是蓝色和绿色的湖水和白色的沙滩，还有大盐湖州立公园和羚羊岛州立公园都提供超级徒步旅行和自行车道，以及绝佳的远景。)”可知，如果你喜欢户外运动，你会去Great Salt Lake。故选D。 B Thrown from his horse three times and repeatedly got wet to the skin while camping in a heavy rain, Chris Walker, the farmer from Gloucestershire was, at 55, the oldest of the competitors in this year’s 1,000 km race across the steppe (大草原). Despite the hardships of his eight-day journey, Walker was delighted to finish third in the annual contest. The Mongol Derby, described as the world’s toughest horse-riding endurance race, began in 2009 as an annual event. Competitors race between checkpoints 35 km (22 miles) apart, where they change horses to ensure the animals are healthy. They spend nights at one of 28 stations, set up their own camp or enjoy the warm welcome of friendly Mongolian families. Walker, was an hour ahead of his competitors as the race entered its eighth day but unfortunately he faced an hour and a half penalty because during one of the regular checks his horse had a high heart rate, which is forbidden during the contest. Walker said he had gone to Mongolia to “give it a go” but realised that he stood a chance of winning after teaming up with Patrick Heffron a competitor from Ireland, who finished third equal alongside his companion. “The horses are quite wild. I got thrown off three times. I fell off in a marmot (土拨鼠) hole,” he said. “You’re going along and you suddenly disappear. You have to hang on to your horse for dear life or it goes off.” Walker said it was important to form a team, mainly because falling off alone means that there was no one to help you with your horse. “Neither of us had prior desires to win this race but we realised: ‘We’re in front.’ So we pushed,” he said. Asked whether he was attracted to return to see if he could win, Walker replied: “Probably, though I’m getting a bit old.” 4. What do we know about Mongol Derby according to the passage? A It is a very challenging and boring race. B. It has an strict limit on age for competitors. C. It requires changing horses at certain places. D. It is a worldwide race held every two years. 5. Which of the following can replace the underlined word in Paragraph 3? A. Punishment. B. Advance. C. Warning. D. Schedule. 6. What did Walker do in the race? A He had a very good control of his horse. B. He saved his horse from accidental death. C. He valued the teamwork with a partner. D. He was motivated by great desires to win. 7. What does the last paragraph imply? A. Walker questioned the race result. B. Walker wished that he were younger. C. Walker regretted taking part in the race. D. Walker may compete in the race next year. 【答案】4. C 5. A 6. C 7. D 【解析】 【导语】本文为一篇新闻报道。文章报道了在目前全球范围内赛程最长的马术耐力赛蒙古德比中，50多岁的Chris Walker在经历了一系列挑战后，不仅完成了比赛还取得了第二名的好成绩。 【4题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“Competitors race between checkpoints 35 km (22 miles) apart, where they change horses to ensure the animals are healthy.(参赛者在相距35公里（22英里）的检查站之间比赛，在那里他们更换马匹以确保动物健康)”可知，在蒙古德比比赛过程中需要在某些地方换马。故选C。 【5题详解】 词句猜测题。根据划线词后“because during one of the regular checks his horse had a high heart rate, which is forbidden during the contest(因为在一次常规检查中，他的马心率很高，这在比赛中是被禁止的)”可知，Chris Walker的马在一次定期检查中心率过高，而这是违反比赛规则的，由此推知，“an hour and a half”是对他罚时一个半小时，划线词penalty的意思为“处罚，惩罚”，和punishment意思相近。故选A。 【6题详解】 推理判断题。根据第六段的“Walker said it was important to form a team, mainly because falling off alone means that there was no one to help you with your horse.(沃克说，组成一个团队很重要，主要是因为独自摔倒意味着没有人帮你牵马)”可知，他重视与同伴的团队合作。故选C。 【7题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段的“Asked whether he was attracted to return to see if he could win, Walker replied: ‘Probably, though I’m getting a bit old.’(当被问及他是否会被吸引回来看看他是否能赢时，沃克回答说：“可能吧，尽管我有点老了。”)”可以推断出，Walker可能会参加下一届（明年）的赛马比赛。故选D。 C Technology is developing by leaps and bounds. A small device such as a smartphone now has more processing power than rockets to the Moon once had. New tech brings many advantages, making our lives easier and opening up new opportunities. One piece of kit that’s been really taking off recently is the drone. This pilotless mini aircraft, originally developed for aerial (航空的) photography and warfare, is now bringing us benefits closer to home. In the last few years, tech companies such as Amazon, Alphabet and Uber have promised us delivery drones—bringing goods to our doorsteps in a matter of minutes. While progress in developing them has been slow, drones are becoming more and more involved in our life. Drones are helping to connect with and enhance the lives of people in remote locations. In the UK, the Royal Mail wants a fleet of 500 drones to help deliver the mail to faraway communities. Windracers, the company developing the drones, say they can fly in fog and produce 30% fewer emissions than comparable piloted aircraft. And in Coventry in the UK, construction has started on an air center, which will act as a base for police and delivery drones. Urban-Air Port Limited is working with car-maker Hyundai on the mini-airport, known as a skyport. Drones can also play a part in improving the health of millions of people. For example, an incredible development project by the University of South Australia is for drones to eventually be able to survey populations for disease by reading the blood oxygen levels of humans from the air. They’ll also be able to scan for other vital signs, like coughing and a high temperature. It seems that the sky is the limit for what drone technology can achieve. The only thing that sometimes keeps it from working is regulation. Writing for the BBC, Jessica Brown says: “If our skies are to become as crowded as our streets, airspace rules need updating to prevent accidents.” 8. What does the underlined sentence indicate? A. A smartphone is more advanced than rockets. B. The rockets to the moon are very powerful. C. Technology is progressing very rapidly. D. Technology is widely used in daily life. 9. What do we know about drones according to the passage? A. They were initially developed for bringing goods. B. They’ve improved people’s life quality in remote areas. C. They don’t cause any pollution to the environment. D. They can diagnose and treat some diseases from the air. 10. What does Jessica Brown mean? A. The development of drones is quite promising. B. It’s a pity that drones are limited to the sky. C. Drones will be likely to cause some accidents. D. Some latest laws are needed to regulate drones. 11. Which is the most suitable title for the passage? A. Drones Are Delivering Benefits Closer to Home B. Developing Drones Is Facing Many Challenges C. Drones Are Currently Booming in Every Field D. Companies Are Competing to Develop Drones 【答案】8. C 9. B 10. D 11. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是说明文。主要介绍了无人机越来越多地参与到人们的日常生活中，且与此相关的无人机科技蓬勃发展。 【8题详解】 推理判断题。划线句子的意思是“现在，智能手机这样的小设备的处理能力比曾经发射到月球的火箭还要强”，该句的前一句是“Technology is developing by leaps and bounds.(技术突飞猛进地发展。)”，也就是说，作者用这句话来说明科技在迅速发展。故选C。 【9题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段的“Drones are helping to connect with and enhance the lives of people in remote locations.(无人机正在帮助连接偏远地区的人们并改善他们的生活。)”可知，无人机改善了偏远地区人们的生活质量。故选B。 【10题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“It seems that the sky is the limit for what drone technology can achieve. The only thing that sometimes keeps it from working is regulation. Writing for the BBC, Jessica Brown says: “If our skies are to become as crowded as our streets, airspace rules need updating to prevent accidents.”(看来，无人机技术所能达到的极限就是天空。有时阻碍它发挥作用的唯一因素是监管。Jessica Brown为BBC撰稿说:“如果我们的天空变得像我们的街道一样拥挤，空域规则需要更新，以防止事故发生。”)”可知，Jessica Brown的意思是需要一些最新的法律来规范无人机。故选D。 【11题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第一段的“New tech brings many advantages, making our lives easier and opening up new opportunities. One piece of kit that’s been really taking off recently is the drone. This pilotless mini aircraft, originally developed for aerial (航空的) photography and warfare, is now bringing us benefits closer to home.(新技术带来了许多好处，使我们的生活更方便，并开辟了新的机会。最近有一种设备非常流行，那就是无人机。这种无人驾驶的迷你飞机，最初是为航空摄影和战争而开发的，现在正为我们带来更近的利益。)”可知，本文主要介绍了无人机给普通人的生活带来的便利，因此最恰当的题目是A选项“Drones Are Delivering Benefits Closer to Home(无人机正在带来好处)”，故选A。 D According to a recent study, children explore more than adults and it helps them learn better than grown-ups. The study notes when adults attempt something new but get a negative result, they often won’t try it again. Dr. Alison Gopnik, one of the co-authors, said “That might seem like the most basic kind of intelligence—even rats stay away from a path leading to a shock. The downside is that we will never learn the world is more complicated. Children, however, have intense curiosity and drive to explore and this helps them learn many different things and quickly.” Together with NYU scientist Emily Liquin, Gopnik conducted a scientific experiment to test if young children’s drive to explore more than grown-ups influences the way they learn. They gave 64 young children and 87 adults a game where each placed different blocks on a machine with one rule: If the machine lights up, they get a prize consisting of a star, but if the machine doesn’t light up, they lose twice as much. The goal of the game was to discover that all the blocks work except for the ones with white spots. Most of the children were able to figure out the rule correctly, whereas more than 70% adults couldn’t, but it came at a cost: The children earned fewer stars. The experiment shows adults often leap to faster conclusions, while children are more willing to explore and gather more information before they decide on a result. The experiment only studied four to seven-year-olds compared to adults in the United States, noting more research is needed to generalize it to a broader population and context, according to the paper. Gopnik concludes, “We grown-ups are often so anxious to exploit that we don’t explore, so afraid of losing stars that we miss the chance to learn something new. Children, however, are natural explorers, willing to sacrifice stars for the sake of information. We need both types of thinking to grow up, but adults might learn something from those curious kids.” 12. Why did Gopnik mention rats in Paragraph 2? A. To show adults’ avoiding bad results is understandable. B. To compare whether adults are much cleverer than rats. C. To tell us rats are appropriate subjects in experiments. D. To suggest that rats are clever enough to choose safe paths. 13. What do we know about the experiment? A. It aimed to test if children have more drive to explore. B. Most adults could understand the game rule correctly. C. Children got better results than adults in the game. D. It has some limitations and needs further research. 14. What does Gopnik mean according to the last paragraph? A. Adults’ way of thinking should be abandoned. B. The two ways of thinking should be combined. C. Children are better at getting information. D. Adults should learn to think in children’s way. 15. Based on the study, which of the following is desirable in educating kids? A. Inspiring kids to explore regardless of risks. B. Encouraging kids to be brave to try new things. C. Motivating kids to draw conclusions quickly. D. Teaching kids not to care about gains and losses. 【答案】12. A 13. D 14. B 15. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是说明文，主要介绍了相比较成年人，儿童更愿意探索，尝试新事物，这有助于他们更好地学习，在这一点上，成年人应该向儿童学习。 【12题详解】 推理判断题。第二段引语中第一句“That might seem like the most basic kind of intelligence—even rats stay away from a path leading to a shock.(这似乎是一种最基本的智力——即使是老鼠也会远离导致电击的路径。)”中的“That”指代上一段最后一句话中的“when adults attempt something new but get a negative result, they often won’t try it again(当成年人尝试新事物但结果不理想时，他们通常不会再尝试了)”，作者将成年人避免尝试不良结果与老鼠躲避设有电击的路径进行类比，旨在说明趋利避害是具有基本智力的生物的共性，因此成年人的这一行为是可以理解的。故选A。 【13题详解】 细节理解题。从三至七段介绍了实验相关的内容：目的、过程、结果、结论、评价等。根据第七段“The experiment only studied four to seven-year-olds compared to adults in the United States, noting more research is needed to generalize it to a broader population and context, according to the paper.(根据该论文，该实验只研究了美国4到7岁的成年人，并指出需要更多的研究才能将其推广到更广泛的人群和背景下。)”可知，该实验只将美国4到7岁的儿童与成年人进行了对比，因此它有一定的局限性，需要进一步研究。故选D。 【14题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“We grown-ups are often so anxious to exploit that we don’t explore, so afraid of losing stars that we miss the chance to learn something new. Children, however, are natural explorers, willing to sacrifice stars for the sake of information. We need both types of thinking to grow up, but adults might learn something from those curious kids.(我们成年人常常急于开发，以至于我们不去探索，因为害怕失去星星，所以我们错过了学习新东西的机会。然而，孩子们是天生的探险家，为了获取信息，他们愿意牺牲星星。我们在成长过程中需要这两种思维方式，但成年人可以从这些好奇的孩子身上学到一些东西。)”可知，Gopnik的意思是这两种思维方式应该结合起来。故选B。 【15题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段的“Children, however, are natural explorers, willing to sacrifice stars for the sake of information. We need both types of thinking to grow up, but adults might learn something from those curious kids.(然而，孩子们是天生的探险家，为了获取信息，他们愿意牺牲星星。我们在成长过程中需要这两种思维方式，但成年人可以从这些好奇的孩子身上学到一些东西。)”可知，在教育孩子方面应该鼓励孩子勇敢地尝试新事物。故选B。 第二节（共5小题;每小题2分，满分10分） 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。 The first thing I do when I wake up in the morning is check my phone. I’m checking emails and looking at Twitter all before I’ve even gotten out of bed. And I’ll keep doing that throughout the entire day, until I go back to bed for the night. If, like me, you feel unbalanced by how much time you’re spending online, a strategy called digital minimalism (简约主义) may help. ____16____. Set some basic boundaries Try deleting social media apps from your phone to create natural barriers to accessing them. If that’s not enough, you can use screen timers or app blockers to make it even tougher to log back on. ____17____. And that could also change how you communicate with other people. ____18____ One study found that sleeping without phones improves sleep, relationships, focus and health and increases happiness and quality of life. So, sleeping without a phone is good for you, and charging your phone somewhere else could help you experience that benefit. Recognize your emotions Ask yourself how you feel when you’re logged in: ____19____? Are you energetic? Do particular apps arouse certain emotions? When you’re online, write down how you feel and see what patterns you have. From there you can decide what to keep, what to get rid of. Take up your hobbies You might notice you have a lot more time on your hands if you start practicing digital minimalism and using the Internet less. Make a list of activities you enjoy and people you like hanging out with. ____20____, you can try one of those hobbies or call a loved one instead. The goal with digital minimalism isn’t to figure out how to live without social media or the Internet. It’s to be more aware of when and how you use it. A. Are you stressed B. Benefit from phones C. Here’s how to get started D. The following tips can help E. Don’t go to bed with your phone F. When you feel the urge to grab your phone G.

He was in a hurry and seemed disappointedly. He then called his family or said he had spent all his cashes on a wrong ticket. The train station wouldn’t let him change it, what left him at a loss. We talked for a while and I ended up giving him $20 buy a new ticket. My friend said he hoped the man was telling a truth. In my view, it’s common to be a little sceptical about how the man’s story was real. Anyway, offering him $20 to get himself out of trouble feeling like the right thing to do at that moment. 【答案】1. 去掉 was 2. disappointedly→ disappointed 3. or→ and 4. cashes→ cash 5. what→ which 6. buy前加 to 7. a → the 8. how→ whether 9. himself→ him 10. feeling→ felt 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了作者在火车站遇到的一个具体事件——一个男子向作者借手机并请求帮助购买车票，作者与朋友对此事的反应和最终的决定。 【详解】1. 考查语态。句意：我和一个朋友在火车站等待时，一个男子向我借手机。根据主句时态可知，从句时态为一般过去时；从句主语为“a man”，和动词“ask”之间为主动关系。故将was去掉。 2. 考查形容词。句意：他看起来很匆忙，也很沮丧。分析句子成分可知，seemed后为形容词形式担当表语。故将disappointedly改为disappointed。 3. 考查连词。句意：他随后给他的家人打电话，说他把所有的钱都花在了买错的车票上。 “called his family”和“said he had spent all his cash on a wrong ticket.”之间为并列关系，而不是选择关系。故将or改为and。 4. 考查名词。句意：他随后给他的家人打电话，说他把所有的钱都花在了买错的车票上。名词“cash”意为“现金”，为不可数名词。故将cashes改为cash。 5. 考查定语从句。句意：火车站不允许他换票，这让他不知所措。逗号后为非限制性定语从句，从句主语指代主句阐述的内容，此定语从句用关系代词which引导。故将what改为which。 6. 考查非谓语动词。句意：我们聊了一会儿，最后我给了他20美元去买一张新票。“buy”担当句子的目的状语用动词不定式形式。故在buy前加to。 7. 考查固定短语。句意：我的朋友说他希望那个人说的是实话。固定短语：tell the truth，意为“说实话”，符合句意。故将a改为the。 8. 考查宾语从句。句意：在我看来，对这个人的故事是否真实持一点怀疑是很正常的。介词about后跟宾语从句，根据句意可知，宾语从句不缺少成分，意为“是否”，位于介词之后，用“whether”引导。故将how改为whether。 9. 考查代词。句意：不过，在那一刻，给他20美元帮他摆脱困境似乎是正确的事。get的宾语为“他”与“offering him $20”中的him指代一致，用宾格him，故将himself改为him。 10. 考查谓语动词。句意：不过，在那一刻，给他20美元帮他摆脱困境似乎是正确的事。分析句子成分可知，本句主语为动名词短语，“feel like”作谓语，两者之间为主动关系；再根据上文可知本文讲述过去的事情，本句时态为一般过去时。故将feeling改为felt。 第二节 书面表达（满分25分） 52. 假定你是李华, 你班计划与新西兰姊妹学校某班级在线共上一堂介绍“传统体育项目”的交流课。请你代表班级写封邮件给对方班长Hans，内容包括： 1.交流的目的； 2.告知相关事宜； 3.征求意见。 注意： 1.词数80左右； 2.请在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Dear Hans, ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Yours, Li Hua 【答案】Dear Hans， I’m Li Hua.

Here, we uncover some other salt lakes around the world. Salt Sea The most famous of the lot—the Salt Sea—is a natural place to start. It’s technically not a sea at all, but a land salt lake. Its waters are mainly drawn from the Jordan River, and the high salinity (盐度) means no life can survive here, so don’t expect any colorful fish. However, much amusement results from the sea’s buoyancy (浮力): bring some reading material to the waters and lie back. Nature will do the rest. Lake Assal Surrounded by black volcano rocks, Lake Assal takes the title of being the lowest point in Africa. Vast salt fields mark its edges; the lake has long been at the center of the area’s salt trade, on which the region’s African locals still rely. Though the area might not be suitable to live in, the waters are rich in minerals and related to health benefits. Don Juan Pond Don Juan Pond might not win any prizes for its beauty—at four inches deep, it’s little more than a pond, but worth visiting. Its salinity content of almost 40 percent makes it one of the saltiest bodies of water on Earth, meaning it doesn’t freeze even when Antarctic temperatures drop to -50℃. And with suggestions that water in a similar form could exist on Mars, there’s more than one reason for scientists to study this fascinating dry, cold environment. Great Salt Lake The biggest salt lake in the western hemisphere (半球) and the one that gave Salt Lake City its name, the Great Salt Lake finds its home in northern Utah. What makes the lake well-known is not only the lake’s blue and green waters and white-sand beaches, but Great Salt Lake State Park and Antelope Island State Park both offer super hiking and biking trails, and great long views. 1. What can you do in the Salt Sea? A. Appreciate some colorful fishes. B. Experience floating on the water. C. Enjoy fascinating natural views. D. Witness the eruption of volcanoes. 2. What do we know about Lake Assal? A. It’s known for being the world’s lowest point. B. It plays a significant role in local economy. C. It’s one of the saltiest water bodies on Earth. D. It attracts scientists to study its environment. 3. Which place would you go to if you like taking outdoor exercise? A. Salt Sea. B. Lake Assal. C. Don Juan Pond. D. Great Salt Lake. B Thrown from his horse three times and repeatedly got wet to the skin while camping in a heavy rain, Chris Walker, the farmer from Gloucestershire was, at 55, the oldest of the competitors in this year’s 1,000 km race across the steppe (大草原). Despite the hardships of his eight-day journey, Walker was delighted to finish third in the annual contest. The Mongol Derby, described as the world’s toughest horse-riding endurance race, began in 2009 as an annual event. Competitors race between checkpoints 35 km (22 miles) apart, where they change horses to ensure the animals are healthy. They spend nights at one of 28 stations, set up their own camp or enjoy the warm welcome of friendly Mongolian families. Walker, was an hour ahead of his competitors as the race entered its eighth day but unfortunately he faced an hour and a half penalty because during one of the regular checks his horse had a high heart rate, which is forbidden during the contest. Walker said he had gone to Mongolia to “give it a go” but realised that he stood a chance of winning after teaming up with Patrick Heffron, a competitor from Ireland, who finished third equal alongside his companion. “The horses are quite wild. I got thrown off three times. I fell off in a marmot (土拨鼠) hole,” he said. “You’re going along and you suddenly disappear. You have to hang on to your horse for dear life or it goes off.” Walker said it was important to form a team, mainly because falling off alone means that there was no one to help you with your horse. “Neither of us had prior desires to win this race but we realised: ‘We’re in front.’ So we pushed,” he said. Asked whether he was attracted to return to see if he could win, Walker replied: “Probably, though I’m getting a bit old.” 4. What do we know about Mongol Derby according to the passage? A. It is a very challenging and boring race. B It has an strict limit on age for competitors. C. It requires changing horses at certain places. D. It is a worldwide race held every two years. 5. Which of the following can replace the underlined word in Paragraph 3? A. Punishment. B. Advance. C. Warning. D. Schedule. 6. What did Walker do in the race? A. He had a very good control of his horse. B. He saved his horse from accidental death. C. He valued the teamwork with a partner. D. He was motivated by great desires to win. 7. What does the last paragraph imply? A. Walker questioned the race result. B. Walker wished that he were younger. C. Walker regretted taking part in the race. D. Walker may compete in the race next year. C Technology is developing by leaps and bounds. A small device such as a smartphone now has more processing power than rockets to the Moon once had. New tech brings many advantages, making our lives easier and opening up new opportunities. One piece of kit that’s been really taking off recently is the drone. This pilotless mini aircraft, originally developed for aerial (航空的) photography and warfare, is now bringing us benefits closer to home. In the last few years, tech companies such as Amazon, Alphabet and Uber have promised us delivery drones—bringing goods to our doorsteps in a matter of minutes. While progress in developing them has been slow, drones are becoming more and more involved in our life. Drones are helping to connect with and enhance the lives of people in remote locations. In the UK, the Royal Mail wants a fleet of 500 drones to help deliver the mail to faraway communities. Windracers, the company developing the drones, say they can fly in fog and produce 30% fewer emissions than comparable piloted aircraft. And in Coventry in the UK, construction has started on an air center, which will act as a base for police and delivery drones. Urban-Air Port Limited is working with car-maker Hyundai on the mini-airport, known as a skyport. Drones can also play a part in improving the health of millions of people. For example, an incredible development project by the University of South Australia is for drones to eventually be able to survey populations for disease by reading the blood oxygen levels of humans from the air. They’ll also be able to scan for other vital signs, like coughing and a high temperature. It seems that the sky is the limit for what drone technology can achieve. The only thing that sometimes keeps it from working is regulation. Writing for the BBC, Jessica Brown says: “If our skies are to become as crowded as our streets, airspace rules need updating to prevent accidents.” 8. What does the underlined sentence indicate? A. A smartphone is more advanced than rockets. B. The rockets to the moon are very powerful. C. Technology is progressing very rapidly. D. Technology is widely used in daily life. 9. What do we know about drones according to the passage? A. They were initially developed for bringing goods. B They’ve improved people’s life quality in remote areas. C They don’t cause any pollution to the environment. D. They can diagnose and treat some diseases from the air. 10. What does Jessica Brown mean? A. The development of drones is quite promising. B. It’s a pity that drones are limited to the sky. C. Drones will be likely to cause some accidents. D Some latest laws are needed to regulate drones. 11. Which is the most suitable title for the passage? A. Drones Are Delivering Benefits Closer to Home B. Developing Drones Is Facing Many Challenges C. Drones Are Currently Booming in Every Field D. Companies Are Competing to Develop Drones D According to a recent study, children explore more than adults and it helps them learn better than grown-ups. The study notes when adults attempt something new but get a negative result, they often won’t try it again. Dr. Alison Gopnik, one of the co-authors, said “That might seem like the most basic kind of intelligence—even rats stay away from a path leading to a shock. The downside is that we will never learn the world is more complicated. Children, however, have intense curiosity and drive to explore and this helps them learn many different things and quickly.” Together with NYU scientist Emily Liquin, Gopnik conducted a scientific experiment to test if young children’s drive to explore more than grown-ups influences the way they learn. They gave 64 young children and 87 adults a game where each placed different blocks on a machine with one rule: If the machine lights up, they get a prize consisting of a star, but if the machine doesn’t light up, they lose twice as much. The goal of the game was to discover that all the blocks work except for the ones with white spots. Most of the children were able to figure out the rule correctly, whereas more than 70% adults couldn’t, but it came at a cost: The children earned fewer stars. The experiment shows adults often leap to faster conclusions, while children are more willing to explore and gather more information before they decide on a result. The experiment only studied four to seven-year-olds compared to adults in the United States, noting more research is needed to generalize it to a broader population and context, according to the paper. Gopnik concludes, “We grown-ups are often so anxious to exploit that we don’t explore, so afraid of losing stars that we miss the chance to learn something new. Children, however, are natural explorers, willing to sacrifice stars for the sake of information. We need both types of thinking to grow up, but adults might learn something from those curious kids.” 12. Why did Gopnik mention rats in Paragraph 2? A. To show adults’ avoiding bad results is understandable. B. To compare whether adults are much cleverer than rats. C. To tell us rats are appropriate subjects in experiments. D. To suggest that rats are clever enough to choose safe paths. 13. What do we know about the experiment? A. It aimed to test if children have more drive to explore. B. Most adults could understand the game rule correctly. C. Children got better results than adults in the game. D. It has some limitations and needs further research. 14. What does Gopnik mean according to the last paragraph? A. Adults’ way of thinking should be abandoned. B. The two ways of thinking should be combined. C. Children are better at getting information. D. Adults should learn to think in children’s way. 15. Based on the study, which of the following is desirable in educating kids? A. Inspiring kids to explore regardless of risks. B. Encouraging kids to be brave to try new things. C. Motivating kids to draw conclusions quickly. D. Teaching kids not to care about gains and losses. 第二节（共5小题;每小题2分，满分10分） 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。 The first thing I do when I wake up in the morning is check my phone.

He was in a hurry and seemed disappointedly. He then called his family or said he had spent all his cashes on a wrong ticket. The train station wouldn’t let him change it, what left him at a loss.
