The new feature officially announced on Monday morning in a news release is Google guidance on the cheapest time to book a flight, which adds price tracking alerts and a price guarantee option already in place. Cheapest time to book: Google Flights said starting this week, searches that have reliable trend data will let users see in what time frame prices have typically been lowest. Users can then better decide whether to book now or later, Google said in the release. Take flights from New York to Miami, for example, the cheapest time to book is usually from Sep 13 to Dec 7. Prices during this time are $59 cheaper on average. Price tracking: Users who want to wait for lower fares before booking can use a price tracking feature that “can do most of the heavy lifting for you,” Google said. Price guarantee: On some flight results, users might notice a price guarantee badge (标志) pop up (this won’t happen on every use). If you book one of these flights, Google said it will monitor the price every day before takeoff. “If the price does go down, we’ll pay you back the difference via Google Pay. These price guarantees are part of a pilot program available for select Book on Google itineraries (行程) departing from the U. S.,” Google said in the release. 1. Which is the cheapest time to book a flight from New York to Miami? A. August 19. B. September 20. C. December 8. D. January 11. 2. What is the function of Google Flights’ new feature? A Get your money back. B. Pay back the difference. C. Monitor the price before flights take off. D. Make sure you can get the cheapest flight. 3. In which section of a newspaper may this text appear? A Science. B. Entertainment. C. Travel. D. Education. 【答案】1. B 2. D 3. C 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇应用文，介绍了Google Flights为了帮助游客省钱而上线的三项新功能。 【1题详解】 细节理解题。根据Cheapest time to book这一部分最后一段“Take flights from New York to Miami, for example, the cheapest time to book is usually from Sep 13 to Dec 7.(以纽约到迈阿密的航班为例，最便宜的预订时间通常是9月13日至12月7日)”可知，从纽约到迈阿密最便宜的机票时间段通常在9月13日到12月7日期间，故B选项的时间符合题意。故选B。 【2题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“The new feature officially announced on Monday morning in a news release is Google guidance on the cheapest time to book a flight, which adds price tracking alerts and a price guarantee option already in place.(周一上午，谷歌在一份新闻稿中正式宣布了这项新功能，即谷歌对预订机票最便宜时间的指导，其中增加了价格跟踪提醒和价格保证选项)”及Price guarantee这一部分中“If you book one of these flights, Google said it will monitor the price every day before takeoff.(如果价格真的下跌，我们将通过谷歌支付向您退还差额)”可知，谷歌航班推出新功能，就是确保乘客买到最便宜的机票。故选D。 【3题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章标题“Google Flights reveals new feature to help travelers save money(谷歌航班推出新功能，帮助旅行者省钱)”以及文章最后一段“These price guarantees are part of a pilot program available for select Book on Google itineraries(行程).(这些价格保证是一项试点计划的一部分，该计划适用于从美国出发的Book on Google行程)”可以知道作者的写作意图是介绍Google Flights上线的新功能帮助游客省钱，包括最后一段中提到的“itineraries”、“departing”等词也可推断出文章是与旅游相关。故选C。 B Technology has undoubtedly opened up the world for me. Literally, in the case of my fully accessible home. My windows are automatic, and my front door is automatic too. There are also my wheelchairs. I guess that any wheelchair user will say the best invention is that of the wheel. It’s a tool bringing independence and comfort. Last week, I took a well-deserved break from work and went on a staycation in my local area. On the first day, I was heading further out in my power wheelchair than I’ve ever been on my own. This chair is almost like a Transformer. I like the speed, the phone charger and the flexible feature. It’s a wonderful creation. However, while there are many benefits that come with technology, I still live in a disabling world. For example, out in my power wheelchair that day, feeling free and easy, I headed straight to the shop not far away. I deserve to feel heard and included when innovation is concerned. But when I got there, I was confronted by self-service checkouts. While they are designed for easy and quick service, for me and many other disabled people, the lack of face-to-face services can put us at a disadvantage. Not only are the checkouts far too high, they are awkwardly designed so that you cannot approach them with a wheelchair. So, I waited for someone to assist me. In just a matter of a few hours, I had seen how technology and accessibility advancements have empowered me then, in the next breath, disabled me. I still live in a disabling world with sub-standard accessibility. Therefore, disabled people by and large are more likely to rely on mechanical and technological devices such as lifts and communication aids. Unfortunately, these things are sometimes abused and mistreated, making the person relying on them dependent on others. 4. How does the author think of technology according to paragraphs 1 and 2? A. He casts some doubts on it. B. He shows much gratitude for it. C. He expresses curiosity about it. D. He feels really carefree with it. 5. What happened to the author in the shop? A. He came across many other disabled people by chance. B. He waited quite a few hours in order to check out. C. He was unable to seek assistance from others. D. He couldn’t use the self-service checkout by himself. 6. Why does the author say he still lives in a disabling world? A. He thinks it is not easy to make his voice heard. B. Some shops are inaccessible to wheelchair users. C. He finds it really hard to fit in with non-disabled people. D. Things related to technology are sometimes out of service. 7. What would be the best title for the text? A. My different views concerning disability B. How I make full advantage of technology C. My love-hate relationship with technology D. How I live independently as a disabled man 【答案】4. B 5. D 6. D 7. C 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇夹叙夹议文。文章主要介绍了科技给残疾人带来了便利，但人们对机械和科技设备的使用和保护不当也为残疾人的生活带来很多不便。 【4题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段关键句“Technology has undoubtedly opened up the world for me.”（科技无疑为我打开了世界。）和第二段关键句“This chair is almost like a Transformer. I like the speed, the phone charger and the flexible feature. It’s a wonderful creation.”（这把椅子几乎像个变形金刚。我喜欢速度、手机充电器和灵活的功能。这是一个奇妙的创造。）可知，作者认为科技为自己打开了世界，身为一个残疾人，作者利用科技创造的轮椅获得了很多便利，由此可知，根据第1段和第2段内容可知，作者对技术深表感激。故选B项。 【5题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段关键句“Not only are the checkouts far too high, they are awkwardly designed so that you cannot approach them with a wheelchair. So, I waited for someone to assist me.”（不仅结账台太高，而且设计得没有技巧，以至于你不能用轮椅接近它们。所以，我等着有人来帮助我。）可知，作者在自助结账时，由于结账台太高，他不能用轮椅接近他们，以至于作者不得不等着有人来帮助自己，由此可知，作者在商店里不能自己使用自助结账。故选D项。 【6题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段内容“I still live in a disabling world with sub-standard accessibility. Therefore, disabled people by and large are more likely to rely on mechanical and technological devices such as lifts and communication aids. Unfortunately, these things are sometimes abused and mistreated, making the person relying on them dependent on others.”（我仍然生活在一个残疾的世界，没有达到标准。因此，残疾人总的来说更可能依赖机械和技术设备，如电梯和通信辅助设备。不幸的是，这些东西有时被滥用和虐待，使依赖它们的人依赖于其他人。）可知，因为机械和科技设备有时会被乱用或被人为破坏，导致这些设备无法正常使用，在这种情况下，作者还得求助别人，所以作者说自己还生活在一个残疾的世界中，由此可知，作者说他仍然生活在一个残疾的世界，因为与技术相关的东西有时无法使用。故选D项。 【7题详解】 主旨大意题。通读全文，结合第一段关键句“Technology has undoubtedly opened up the world for me.”（科技无疑为我打开了世界。）和最后一段关键句“Unfortunately, these things are sometimes abused and mistreated, making the person relying on them dependent on others.”（不幸的是，这些东西有时被滥用和虐待，使依赖它们的人依赖于其他人。）可知，作者在第一、二段中描述了科技给他的生活带来的益处，第三段从反面说明了科技对他的生活产生的影响，作者在最后一段中表明，人们对机械和科技设备的使用和保护不当也为残疾人的生活带来很多不便，由此可知，作者在本文中表明了他对科技爱恨交加的态度，“My love-hate relationship with technology”意为“我与科技爱恨交加的关系”，选项能够概括文章的主要内容。故选C项。 C Cancer-fighting genes in elephants could help tackle one of the biggest killers of people, according to research. Despite their large bodies and long lifespans, elephants are much less likely to die from cancer than humans, with death rates of less than 5 percent. The paradox has puzzled scientists because more cells lead to greater replications (复制), which increases the possibility of the body failing to detect damaged DNA or a faulty cell that can result in tumors(肿瘤). Elephants live for almost as long as humans and weigh up to five tons. However, a group of British and European scientists say they have taken a big step towards solving Peto’s paradox, named after the British epidemiologist Sir Richard Peto. Elephants, they say, carry a much larger more diverse group of tumor-fighting proteins. The findings, published last week in the journal Molecular Biology and Evolution, raise hopes that the cancer fighting genes in elephants could be the key to tackling cancer, which kills about 167, 000 Britons yearly. Cells keep dividing throughout an organism’s life, each carrying the risk of producing a tumor. One of the body’s weapons is a gene called p53 known as the “guardian of the genome”, which hunts cells with faulty DNA. It encourages the cell to repair itself or self-destruct, keeping the cell from combining with others and producing tumors. Humans have two versions of p53 but elephants have 40, said the researchers. Biochemical analysis and computer simulations also showed that an elephant’s p53 genes are structurally slightly different, providing a much larger anti-cancer toolkit. The researchers suspect that while faulty cells might be able to skirt two p53 versions, they cannot combine with other cells as easily in the face of dozens. The findings will open the way for research on how p53 genes of elephants are activated and on medical treatment for humans. 8. What has puzzled scientists? A. Few elephants end up dying from cancer. B. Elephants live long and weigh enormously. C. More cells lead to higher chances of tumors. D. A larger body is less likely to discover faulty cells. 9. What can be learnt from Paragraph 4? A. How many Britons die each year. B. How the anti-cancer gene works. C. How the research was carried out. D. What the findings have been applied to. 10. What does the underlined word “skirt” in Paragraph 5 probably mean? A. Strengthen. B. Detect. C. Escaped. D. Cure. 11. Which is the text mainly about? A. Scientists find elephants live longer than humans. B. P53 genes play essential role in preventing cancer. C. Elephant genes could be key to fighting cancer. D. Groundbreaking treatment for cancer is on the way. 【答案】8. A 9. B 10. C 11. C 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章介绍了一项研究，表明大象的抗癌基因可能是对抗癌症的关键。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段中“Despite their large bodies and long lifespans, elephants are much less likely to die from cancer than humans, with death rates of less than 5 percent. (尽管大象的身体很大，寿命也很长，但它们死于癌症的可能性比人类小得多，死亡率不到5%。)”可知，让科学家们感到困惑的是很少有大象最终死于癌症。故选A项。 【9题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段中“Cells keep dividing throughout an organism’s life, each carrying the risk of producing a tumor. One of the body’s weapons is a gene called p53 known as the ‘guardian of the genome’, which hunts cells with faulty DNA. It encourages the cell to repair itself or self-destruct, keeping the cell from combining with others and producing tumors. (细胞在生物体的一生中不断分裂，每个细胞都有产生肿瘤的风险。人体的武器之一是被称为‘基因组守护者’的p53基因，它会搜寻有缺陷DNA的细胞。它鼓励细胞自我修复或自我毁灭，防止细胞与其他细胞结合并产生肿瘤。)”可知，从本段我们可以了解到抗癌基因是如何工作的。故选B项。 【10题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第四段中“One of the body’s weapons is a gene called p53 known as the ‘guardian of the genome’, which hunts cells with faulty DNA. (人体的武器之一是被称为‘基因组守护者’的p53基因，它会搜寻有缺陷DNA的细胞。)”和划线词句前文“Humans have two versions of p53 but elephants have 40, said the researchers. Biochemical analysis and computer simulations also showed that an elephant’s p53 genes are structurally slightly different, providing a much larger anti-cancer toolkit. (研究人员说，人类有两种p53基因，但大象有40种。生化分析和计算机模拟还表明，大象的p53基因在结构上略有不同，这提供了一个更大的抗癌工具包。)”可知，p53基因具有抗癌作用，人类有两种此类基因，而大象却有40种，从而推知划线词句“The researchers suspect that while faulty cells might be able to skirt two p53 versions, they cannot combine with other cells as easily in the face of dozens. (研究人员怀疑，虽然有缺陷的细胞可能能够skirt两种p53，但面对几十种，它们无法轻易与其他细胞结合。)”其中划线词汇意思是“绕过，逃避，躲避”，即有缺陷的细胞（致癌细胞）有可能躲避两种抗癌基因，但是不容易躲避几十种。故选C项。 【11题详解】 主旨大意题。通读全文，结合第四段中“The findings, published last week in the journal Molecular Biology and Evolution, raise hopes that the cancer fighting genes in elephants could be the key to tackling cancer, which kills about 167, 000 Britons yearly. (上周发表在《分子生物学与进化》杂志上这一发现，让人们看到了希望：大象身上的抗癌基因可能是治疗癌症的关键。)”和最后一段“The findings will open the way for research on how p53 genes of elephants are activated and on medical treatment for humans.(这一发现将为研究大象的p53基因如何被激活以及人类的医学治疗开辟道路。)”可知，本文主要讲的是大象抗癌基因可能是对抗癌症的关键。故选C项。 D The streets, sidewalks and roofs of cities all absorb heat during the day, making some urban areas across the United States up to 6 degrees Fahrenheit hotter than rural ones during the day - and 22 degrees F hotter at night. These “urban heat islands” can also develop underground as the city heat spreads downward, beneath the surface. And basements, subway tunnels and other underground infrastructure also constantly bleed heat into the surrounding earth, creating hotspots. Now the underground heat is building up as the planet warms. According to a new study of downtown Chicago, underground hotspots may threaten the very same structures that emit the heat in the first place. Such temperature changes make the ground around them expand and contract (收缩) enough to cause potential damage. “Without anyone realizing it, the city of Chicago’s downtown was deforming,” says the study’s author Alessandro F. Rotta Loria, a civil and environmental engineer at Northwestern University. The findings, published in Communications Engineering, expose a “silent hazard (危险)” to civil infrastructure in cities with softer ground - especially those near water - Rotta Loria says. “There might have been structural issues caused by this underground climate change that happened, and we didn’t even realize,” he adds. While not an immediate or direct danger to human lives, this previously unknown effect highlights the impacts of a lesser-known component of climate change. Similar to climate change above the surface, these underground changes occur over long periods of time. “These effects took decades, a century, to develop,” Rotta Loria says, adding that elevated underground temperatures would likewise take a long time to dissipate (逐渐消失) on their own. But other researchers interviewed for this story all say this wasted energy could also be recycled, presenting an opportunity to both cool the subsurface and save on energy costs. Subway tunnels and basements could be updated with technologies to recapture the heat. For example, water pipes could be installed to run through underground hotspots and pick up some of the heat energy. 12. What can we learn about the “urban heat islands”? A. They can develop underground structures. B. They are impacted by global warming. C. They can destroy the ground around. D. They only exist in the United States. 13. Why does Alessandro F. Rotta Loria mention “silent hazard” in paragraph 3? A. To discuss structural issues. B. To categorize climate change. C. To explain underground heat. D. To emphasize the neglected reality. 14. What will the author probably write about in the paragraph that follows? A. The future of tunnels and basements. B. The reusing approaches of heat energy. C. The cost of maintaining structures. D. The evolution of underground environment. 15. What does the author intend to tell us? A. Underground climate change is a silent danger. B. Humans fail to notice the dramatic climate change. C. Cooling the surface helps control urban heat rises. D. Researching underground heat helps save on energy costs. 【答案】12. B 13. D 14. B 15. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了地下气候变暖对城市地面建筑的负面影响的隐蔽性与长期性，以及介绍潜在的解决方案. 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段中“These “urban heat islands” can also develop underground as the city heat spreads downward, beneath the surface. And basements, subway tunnels and other underground infrastructure also constantly bleed heat into the surrounding earth, creating hotspots. Now the underground heat is building up as the planet warms.(这些“城市热岛”也会在地下形成，因为城市的热量会向下传播，到达地表以下。而且，地下室、地铁隧道和其他地下设施也会不断向周围的土壤散发热量，从而形成热点区域。现在，随着地球变暖，地下热量也在不断积聚。)”可知，“城市热岛”是受到全球气候变暖的影响。故选B。 【13题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段中 Alessandro F. Rotta Loria所说的“There might have been structural issues caused by this underground climate change that happened, and we didn’t even realize(发生的这种地下气候变化可能已经造成了建筑结构上的问题，我们甚至没有意识到)”以及最后一句话“While not an immediate or direct danger to human lives, this previously unknown effect highlights the impacts of a lesser-known component of climate change.(虽然这不是对人类生命的立即或直接威胁，但这种以前未知的影响突显了气候变化中一个鲜为人知的组成部分的影响)”可推知，提出“无声的危险”是想强调地下气候变暖这一被人忽略的事实。故选D。 【14题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“But other researchers interviewed for this story all say this wasted energy could also be recycled, presenting an opportunity to both cool the subsurface and save on energy costs. Subway tunnels and basements could be updated with technologies to recapture the heat. For example, water pipes could be installed to run through underground hotspots and pick up some of the heat energy.(但其他在接受采访的研究人员都表示，这种浪费的能源也可以被回收利用，这不仅提供了冷却地下空间的机会，还能节省能源成本。可以通过更新技术来重新捕获地铁隧道和地下室的热量。例如，可以安装水管穿过地下热点区域，以吸收部分热能)”可知，该段是介绍针对地下气候变暖提出了潜在的解决方案，即可以通过更新地铁隧道和地下室的相关技术来回收利用热能，并举例了可通过安装水管这种方法来获取热能。由此推知，接下来应该是介绍对这种热能的再使用方法。故选B。 【15题详解】 推理判断题。根据全文内容及第二段中“Without anyone realizing it, the city of Chicago’s downtown was deforming(在无人察觉的情况下，芝加哥市中心发生了变形)”和第三段中““There might have been structural issues caused by this underground climate change that happened, and we didn’t even realize,” he adds. While not an immediate or direct danger to human lives, this previously unknown effect highlights the impacts of a lesser-known component of climate change.(“可能会有由于这种地下气候变化导致的结构性问题出现，而我们甚至没有意识到，”他补充道。虽然这对人类生命没有立即或直接的危险，但这一此前未知的影响突显了气候变化中一个较少为人知的组成部分所带来的影响)”可知，整篇文章都在围绕地下热岛效应及其对城市基础设施的影响展开，特别是强调了这种地下气候变化带来的隐患。因此，作者想传达的主要信息是地下气候变化是一种无声的危险。故选A。 第二节（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5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。 Everyone knows about straight-A students.

He bent down to hug his old friend goodbye. He stood up, hugged his parents, and smiled, trying not to let his emotions(情绪) get the better of him. His parents were not quite able to keep theirs under control. They had driven their son several hours out of town to the university where he would soon be living and studying. It was time to say goodbye for now at least. The family hugged and smiled through misty eyes and then laughed. The boy lifted the last bag onto his shoulder, and flashed a bright smile. “I guess this is it,” he said. “I’ll see you back home in a month, okay?” His parents nodded, and they watched as he walked out of sight into the crowds of hundreds of students and parents. The boy’s mother turned to the dog, “Okay, Poppy, time to go back home.” The house seemed quiet as a tomb without the boy living there. All that week, Poppy didn’t seem interested in her dinner, her favourite toy, or even in her daily walk. Her owners were sad too, but they knew their son would be back to visit. Poppy didn’t. They offered the dog some of her favorite peanut butter treats. They even let her sit on the sofa, but the old girl just wasn’t her usual cheerful self. Her owners started to get worried. “What should we do to cheer Poppy up?” asked Dad. “We’ve tried everything.” “I have an idea, but it might be a little crazy,” smiled Mom. “Without anybody left in the house but us, this place could use a bit of fun. Let’s get a little dog for Poppy.” It didn’t take long before they walked through the front door carrying a big box. Poppy welcomed them home as usual, but when she saw the box, she stopped. She put her nose on it. Her tail began wagging(摆动)ever so slowly, then faster as she caught the smell. 注意： 1. 所续写短文的词数应为150左右; 2. 续写部分分为两段，每段的开头语已为你写好; Paragraph 1 Dad opened the box and a sweet little dog appeared. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Paragraph 2 A few weeks later, the boy arrived home from the university. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】范文 Dad opened the box and a sweet little dog appeared. Poppy was amazed. She wagged furiously. She barked with joy. She smiled, her tongue lolling out as she investigated the surprise. The little pup was not shy and immediately starting yipping and jumping around the older dog. “That didn’t take long,” remarked Mom, as both dogs went roaring around the house in an impromptu game of chase. Dad laughed. A few weeks later, the boy arrived home from university. He had missed Poppy and was looking forward to seeing her. When he bent down to give her a big hug, he fell over in surprise as a small golden cloud came racing up to lick his face too. “Oh my gosh, who is this?” he exclaimed. His parents laughed at the look of shock on his face. “That’s Pee-wee,” said Dad. “I can’t believe you got yourselves a puppy!” “We didn’t,” replied Mom. “This puppy is for Poppy!” 【解析】 【导语】本文以小动物为线索展开，讲述了男孩上大学临走前，跟自己心爱的狗狗Poppy和父母拥抱告别。男孩离开家之后，Poppy心情很郁闷以至于对身边的一切都不感兴趣，父母很担心Poppy的状态，想要做一些事情让她开心起来，最终决定给Poppy买一只小狗。 【详解】1. 段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“爸爸打开盒子，一只可爱的小狗出现了。”可知，第一段可描写Poppy见到新小狗的反应以及两只狗之间的友好互动。 ②由第二段首句内容“几个星期后，男孩从大学回到家。”可知，第二段可描写男孩回家后热情拥抱Poppy以及见到新的小狗的反应。 2.续写线索：父亲打开盒子——新小狗出现——Poppy很惊讶，仔细打量——两只狗热情互动——男孩回家——期待见到Poppy——惊讶地发现新小狗——说明缘由 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①研究：investigate/explore ②惊叫：exclaim/shout/yell ③嘲笑：laugh at/make fun of ④回应：reply/respond 情绪类 ①惊讶的：amazed/surprised ②猛烈地：furiously/heavily/strongly 【点睛】[高分句型1].

The new feature officially announced on Monday morning in a news release is Google guidance on the cheapest time to book a flight, which adds price tracking alerts and a price guarantee option already in place. Cheapest time to book: Google Flights said starting this week, searches that have reliable trend data will let users see in what time frame prices have typically been lowest. Users can then better decide whether to book now or later, Google said in the release. Take flights from New York to Miami, for example, the cheapest time to book is usually from Sep 13 to Dec 7. Prices during this time are $59 cheaper on average. Price tracking: Users who want to wait for lower fares before booking can use a price tracking feature that “can do most of the heavy lifting for you,” Google said. Price guarantee: On some flight results, users might notice a price guarantee badge (标志) pop up (this won’t happen on every use). If you book one of these flights, Google said it will monitor the price every day before takeoff. “If the price does go down, we’ll pay you back the difference via Google Pay. These price guarantees are part of a pilot program available for select Book on Google itineraries (行程) departing from the U. S.,” Google said in the release. 1. Which is the cheapest time to book a flight from New York to Miami? A. August 19. B. September 20. C. December 8. D. January 11. 2. What is the function of Google Flights’ new feature? A. Get your money back. B. Pay back the difference. C. Monitor the price before flights take off. D. Make sure you can get the cheapest flight. 3. In which section of a newspaper may this text appear? A. Science. B. Entertainment. C. Travel. D. Education. B Technology has undoubtedly opened up the world for me. Literally, in the case of my fully accessible home. My windows are automatic, and my front door is automatic too. There are also my wheelchairs. I guess that any wheelchair user will say the best invention is that of the wheel. It’s a tool bringing independence and comfort. Last week, I took a well-deserved break from work and went on a staycation in my local area. On the first day, I was heading further out in my power wheelchair than I’ve ever been on my own. This chair is almost like a Transformer. I like the speed, the phone charger and the flexible feature. It’s a wonderful creation. However, while there are many benefits that come with technology, I still live in a disabling world. For example, out in my power wheelchair that day, feeling free and easy, I headed straight to the shop not far away. I deserve to feel heard and included when innovation is concerned. But when I got there, I was confronted by self-service checkouts. While they are designed for easy and quick service, for me and many other disabled people, the lack of face-to-face services can put us at a disadvantage. Not only are the checkouts far too high, they are awkwardly designed so that you cannot approach them with a wheelchair. So, I waited for someone to assist me. In just a matter of a few hours, I had seen how technology and accessibility advancements have empowered me then, in the next breath, disabled me. I still live in a disabling world with sub-standard accessibility. Therefore, disabled people by and large are more likely to rely on mechanical and technological devices such as lifts and communication aids. Unfortunately, these things are sometimes abused and mistreated, making the person relying on them dependent on others. 4. How does the author think of technology according to paragraphs 1 and 2? A. He casts some doubts on it. B. He shows much gratitude for it. C. He expresses curiosity about it. D. He feels really carefree with it. 5. What happened to the author in the shop? A. He came across many other disabled people by chance. B. He waited quite a few hours in order to check out. C. He was unable to seek assistance from others. D. He couldn’t use the self-service checkout by himself. 6. Why does the author say he still lives in a disabling world? A. He thinks it is not easy to make his voice heard. B. Some shops are inaccessible to wheelchair users. C. He finds it really hard to fit in with non-disabled people. D. Things related to technology are sometimes out of service. 7. What would be the best title for the text? A. My different views concerning disability B. How I make full advantage of technology C. My love-hate relationship with technology D. How I live independently as a disabled man C Cancer-fighting genes in elephants could help tackle one of the biggest killers of people, according to research. Despite their large bodies and long lifespans, elephants are much less likely to die from cancer than humans, with death rates of less than 5 percent. The paradox has puzzled scientists because more cells lead to greater replications (复制), which increases the possibility of the body failing to detect damaged DNA or a faulty cell that can result in tumors(肿瘤). Elephants live for almost as long as humans and weigh up to five tons. However, a group of British and European scientists say they have taken a big step towards solving Peto’s paradox, named after the British epidemiologist Sir Richard Peto. Elephants, they say, carry a much larger more diverse group of tumor-fighting proteins. The findings, published last week in the journal Molecular Biology and Evolution, raise hopes that the cancer fighting genes in elephants could be the key to tackling cancer, which kills about 167, 000 Britons yearly. Cells keep dividing throughout an organism’s life, each carrying the risk of producing a tumor. One of the body’s weapons is a gene called p53 known as the “guardian of the genome”, which hunts cells with faulty DNA. It encourages the cell to repair itself or self-destruct, keeping the cell from combining with others and producing tumors. Humans have two versions of p53 but elephants have 40, said the researchers. Biochemical analysis and computer simulations also showed that an elephant’s p53 genes are structurally slightly different, providing a much larger anti-cancer toolkit. The researchers suspect that while faulty cells might be able to skirt two p53 versions, they cannot combine with other cells as easily in the face of dozens. The findings will open the way for research on how p53 genes of elephants are activated and on medical treatment for humans. 8. What has puzzled scientists? A. Few elephants end up dying from cancer. B. Elephants live long and weigh enormously. C. More cells lead to higher chances of tumors. D. A larger body is less likely to discover faulty cells. 9 What can be learnt from Paragraph 4? A. How many Britons die each year. B. How the anti-cancer gene works. C. How the research was carried out. D. What the findings have been applied to. 10. What does the underlined word “skirt” in Paragraph 5 probably mean? A Strengthen. B. Detect. C. Escaped. D. Cure. 11. Which is the text mainly about? A. Scientists find elephants live longer than humans. B. P53 genes play essential role in preventing cancer. C. Elephant genes could be key to fighting cancer. D. Groundbreaking treatment for cancer is on the way. D The streets, sidewalks and roofs of cities all absorb heat during the day, making some urban areas across the United States up to 6 degrees Fahrenheit hotter than rural ones during the day - and 22 degrees F hotter at night. These “urban heat islands” can also develop underground as the city heat spreads downward, beneath the surface. And basements, subway tunnels and other underground infrastructure also constantly bleed heat into the surrounding earth, creating hotspots. Now the underground heat is building up as the planet warms. According to a new study of downtown Chicago, underground hotspots may threaten the very same structures that emit the heat in the first place. Such temperature changes make the ground around them expand and contract (收缩) enough to cause potential damage. “Without anyone realizing it, the city of Chicago’s downtown was deforming,” says the study’s author Alessandro F. Rotta Loria, a civil and environmental engineer at Northwestern University. The findings, published in Communications Engineering, expose a “silent hazard (危险)” to civil infrastructure in cities with softer ground - especially those near water - Rotta Loria says. “There might have been structural issues caused by this underground climate change that happened, and we didn’t even realize,” he adds. While not an immediate or direct danger to human lives, this previously unknown effect highlights the impacts of a lesser-known component of climate change. Similar to climate change above the surface, these underground changes occur over long periods of time. “These effects took decades, a century, to develop,” Rotta Loria says, adding that elevated underground temperatures would likewise take a long time to dissipate (逐渐消失) on their own. But other researchers interviewed for this story all say this wasted energy could also be recycled, presenting an opportunity to both cool the subsurface and save on energy costs. Subway tunnels and basements could be updated with technologies to recapture the heat. For example, water pipes could be installed to run through underground hotspots and pick up some of the heat energy. 12. What can we learn about the “urban heat islands”? A. They can develop underground structures. B. They are impacted by global warming. C. They can destroy the ground around. D. They only exist in the United States. 13. Why does Alessandro F. Rotta Loria mention “silent hazard” in paragraph 3? A. To discuss structural issues. B. To categorize climate change. C. To explain underground heat. D. To emphasize the neglected reality. 14. What will the author probably write about in the paragraph that follows? A. The future of tunnels and basements. B. The reusing approaches of heat energy. C. The cost of maintaining structures. D.

He bent down to hug his old friend goodbye. He stood up, hugged his parents, and smiled, trying not to let his emotions(情绪) get the better of him. His parents were not quite able to keep theirs under control. They had driven their son several hours out of town to the university where he would soon be living and studying. It was time to say goodbye for now at least. The family hugged and smiled through misty eyes and then laughed. The boy lifted the last bag onto his shoulder, and flashed a bright smile. “I guess this is it,” he said. “I’ll see you back home in a month, okay?” His parents nodded, and they watched as he walked out of sight into the crowds of hundreds of students and parents. The boy’s mother turned to the dog, “Okay, Poppy, time to go back home.” The house seemed quiet as a tomb without the boy living there. All that week, Poppy didn’t seem interested in her dinner, her favourite toy, or even in her daily walk. Her owners were sad too, but they knew their son would be back to visit. Poppy didn’t. They offered the dog some of her favorite peanut butter treats. They even let her sit on the sofa, but the old girl just wasn’t her usual cheerful self. Her owners started to get worried. “What should we do to cheer Poppy up?” asked Dad. “We’ve tried everything.” “I have an idea, but it might be a little crazy,” smiled Mom. “Without anybody left in the house but us, this place could use a bit of fun. Let’s get a little dog for Poppy.” It didn’t take long before they walked through the front door carrying a big box. Poppy welcomed them home as usual, but when she saw the box, she stopped. She put her nose on it. Her tail began wagging(摆动)ever so slowly, then faster as she caught the smell. 注意： 1. 所续写短文的词数应为150左右; 2. 续写部分分为两段，每段的开头语已为你写好; Paragraph 1 Dad opened the box and a sweet little dog appeared. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Paragraph 2 A few weeks later, the boy arrived home from the university. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 1—5 CCABC 6—10 BAABA 11—15 CABCC 16—20 ABCBA 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
