To us it seems so natural to put up an umbrella to keep the water off when it rains, but at first the umbrella was not invented as protection against the rain. Its first use was as a shade against the sun! Nobody knows who first invented it, but the umbrella was used in very ancient times. Probably the first to use it were the Chinese in the eleventh century B.C.
We know that the umbrella was used in ancient Egypt and Babylon as a sunshade. And there was a strange thing connected with its use: it became a symbol of honor. In the Far East in ancient times, the umbrella was allowed to be used only by those in high office.
In Europe, the Greeks were the first to use the umbrella as a sunshade. And the umbrella was commonly used in ancient Greece. But it is believed that the first persons in Europe to use the umbrella as protection against the rain were the ancient Romans.
During the Middle Ages, the use of the umbrella practically disappeared. Then it appeared again in Italy in the late sixteenth century. And again it was considered as a symbol of power. By 1680, the umbrella appeared in France and later in England.
By the eighteenth century, the umbrella was used against rain throughout most of Europe. Umbrellas have not changed much in style during all this time, though they have become much lighter in weight. It wasn’t until the twentieth century that women’s umbrellas began to be made, in a whole variety of colors.
4. According to the passage, where was the umbrella probably first invented?
A. In ancient China. B. In ancient Egypt.
C. In ancient Greece. D. In ancient Rome.
5. What can we infer about the umbrella from the passage?
A. Scientists already knew exactly who invented the umbrella.
B. The umbrella was first invented to be used as protection against the sun.
C. The umbrella changed much in style in the eighteenth century.
D. In Europe, the French were the first to use the umbrella as a sunshade.
6. What was a special feature of the umbrella’s use during the Middle Ages?
A. As a protection against rain. B. As a shade against the sun.
C. As a symbol of honor and power. D. As women’s decoration
7 What does the passage mainly talk about?
A. When and how the umbrella was invented.
B. Why the umbrella was so popular in Europe.
C. The meaning of the umbrella.
D. The history and use of the umbrella.
C
It’s a warm summer afternoon. You’re cooking up the catch of the day over a campfire. Suddenly, a few raindrops fall on your arms, and before you know it, the sky opens up. Then you hear what sounds like thunder in the distance. What should you do? Your tent is close by and would offer shelter (庇护) from the pouring rain. There’s a campsite picnic shelter a few minutes down the path. And then you remember that your car is parked down the road. What’s your safest choice to make sure you and your families are safe?
It’s a common question for many hikers and campers, especially when they are camping during summer months. Heading to your car is almost always the safest choice. On the one hand, your tent and a picnic shelter will keep you dry, but they offer little or no protection against lightning. Your car, on the other hand, will keep you dry and protect you from lightning strikes. Protecting yourself against possible lightning strikes is very important; lightening kills an average of 62 people in the US each year. If you keep all of the windows and doors closed in your car, you’ll be able to return to your campsite safely.
Of course, if you’re going backpacking (背包旅行), not car camping, and you’re deep in the woods, your car won’t be a good choice. So, what should you do if your car is far away and there’s no other safe shelter nearby? First, you’ll have to make sure that tree branches or other objects don’t fall on you or your campsite. Then you’ll have to get in a safe position to avoid lightning, or flash flood conditions. What else should you do?
8. To avoid lightning in a storm, you’d better________.
A. go into your tent quickly B. cook up the catch of the day over a campfire
C. run into a campsite picnic shelter at once D. get into your car and return to your campsite later
9. What can we learn from Paragraph 2?
A. Young people like backpacking best. B. Lightning is dangerous for campers.
C. Car camping is a good choice for deep woods. D. Camping during summer is very popular.
10. What can be inferred from the last paragraph?
A. It is important to learn to protect yourself when camping.
B. Backpacking is not a good choice for campers.
C. People should never camp deep in the woods.
D. People should not go camping alone.
11. What is the passage mainly about?
A. The meaning of camping. B. How to live through a storm when camping.
C How to travel safely. D. Car camping is the safest.
D
Pan Zhanle of China broke his own world record on the way to winning the men’s 100-meter freestyle Wednesday night, finishing in 46.40 seconds for his country’s first swimming gold medal of the Paris Olympics.
That mark topped his 46.80 swum at the February world championships in Doha.
“It was a magical moment, really magical,” Pan said. “The record was not just for the Chinese team, but for the world. This is a small step by breaking this record.”
In perhaps the most ferocious race in swimming, the 19-year-old Pan edged Kyle Chalmers of Australia, who clocked a 47.48 for silver and Romanian bronze medalist David Popovici in 47.49.
No world marks had been broken through the first four days in the pool at the Paris Games.
Chalmers won gold in the 100 free in the 2016 Rio de Janeiro Games, and was the silver medalist three years ago in Tokyo behind American Caeleb Dressel. Dressel did not qualify this time.
Pan has not been implicated in any of the doping allegations that have surrounded the Chinese swimming team in the run-up to the Olympics.
Chinese swimmers in Paris have pushed back strongly against those accusations and say they have been tested more frequently in recent months, sometimes three or four times a week.
Pan was asked about the testing and said it all seemed routine to him.
“This was standard,” he said. “The tests were done under all the regulations. I don’t think it influenced my performance.”
WADA, the World Anti-Doping Agency, put out a statement on Tuesday in response to food contamination scenarios being used to clear athletes who test positive.
“WADA is generally concerned about the number of cases that are being closed without sanction when it is not possible to challenge the contamination theory,” the statement said.
“There have been many cases of positive tests that were eventually closed without sanction as no-fault violations, sometimes with unusual methods of contamination.” WADA said it was also concerned about similar cases in the United States.
12. What is the main achievement highlighted in the article?
A. Pan Zhanle winning a gold medal in the men’s 100-meter freestyle.
B Kyle Chalmers winning silver in the men’s 100-meter freestyle.
C. David Popovici setting a new world record.
D. The Chinese swimming team winning multiple medals.
13. What was Pan Zhanle’s record-breaking time in the 100-meter freestyle?
A. 46.80 seconds B. 47.48 seconds C. 47.49 seconds D. 46.40 seconds
14. Which swimmer won the silver medal in the men’s 100-meter freestyle event?
A. Pan Zhanle B. Kyle Chalmers C. avid Popovici D. Caeleb Dressel
15. What was the concern raised by WADA in its recent statement?
A. The frequency of doping tests on athletes.
B. The handling of food contamination cases leading to positive tests.
C. The lack of new world records in swimming.
D. The performance of athletes under doping allegations.

【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇应用文。文章分享了前往巴黎旅行的一些建议,包括制定计划、预定机票和四个景点的行程等内容。
【1题详解】
细节理解题。根据Booking Flights中“The cheapest month to fly is March, especially if you can leave on a Monday, Tuesday, or Wednesday. You’ll save even more money by booking around 90 days in advance. (乘飞机最便宜的月份是三月份,尤其是如果你能在周一、周二或周三出发的话。如果提前90天左右预订,你会节省更多的钱)”可知,三月份的机票最便宜,提前90天预定可以更便宜,因此十二月时预订三月的机票可以省下最多的钱。故选C项。
【2题详解】
细节理解题。根据Enjoying Your Time部分Go to the Louvre to see world-famous art中“The Louvre costs €15 at the museum or €17 in advance (to skip most of the line). (卢浮宫的票价是15欧元,或者优先票17欧元(可以跳过大部分队伍))”可知,我们可以在卢浮宫多花2欧元(=17-15)来节省排队时间。故选D项。
【3题详解】
推理判断题。通读全文,尤其是第一段“A relaxing trip to Paris takes a little bit of planning. Here are some tips for you to make your trip smooth. (一次轻松的巴黎之旅需要一点计划。这里有一些小贴士可以让你的旅行顺利)”可知,文章主要介绍了前往巴黎旅行的一些建议,包括制定计划、预定机票和四个景点的行程方面的内容。由此推知,文章应该是出自旅游手册。故选B项。

During the Middle Ages, the use of the umbrella practically disappeared. Then it appeared again in Italy in the late sixteenth century. And again it was considered as a symbol of power. By 1680, the umbrella appeared in France and later in England.
By the eighteenth century, the umbrella was used against rain throughout most of Europe. Umbrellas have not changed much in style during all this time, though they have become much lighter in weight. It wasn’t until the twentieth century that women’s umbrellas began to be made, in a whole variety of colors.

It’s a warm summer afternoon. You’re cooking up the catch of the day over a campfire. Suddenly, a few raindrops fall on your arms, and before you know it, the sky opens up. Then you hear what sounds like thunder in the distance. What should you do? Your tent is close by and would offer shelter (庇护) from the pouring rain. There’s a campsite picnic shelter a few minutes down the path. And then you remember that your car is parked down the road. What’s your safest choice to make sure you and your families are safe?
It’s a common question for many hikers and campers, especially when they are camping during summer months. Heading to your car is almost always the safest choice. On the one hand, your tent and a picnic shelter will keep you dry, but they offer little or no protection against lightning. Your car, on the other hand, will keep you dry and protect you from lightning strikes. Protecting yourself against possible lightning strikes is very important; lightening kills an average of 62 people in the US each year. If you keep all of the windows and doors closed in your car, you’ll be able to return to your campsite safely.
Of course, if you’re going backpacking (背包旅行), not car camping, and you’re deep in the woods, your car won’t be a good choice. So, what should you do if your car is far away and there’s no other safe shelter nearby? First, you’ll have to make sure that tree branches or other objects don’t fall on you or your campsite. Then you’ll have to get in a safe position to avoid lightning, or flash flood conditions. What else should you do?
8. To avoid lightning in a storm, you’d better________.
A. go into your tent quickly B. cook up the catch of the day over a campfire
C. run into a campsite picnic shelter at once D. get into your car and return to your campsite later
9. What can we learn from Paragraph 2?
A. Young people like backpacking best. B. Lightning is dangerous for campers.
C. Car camping is a good choice for deep woods. D. Camping during summer is very popular.
10. What can be inferred from the last paragraph?
A. It is important to learn to protect yourself when camping.
B. Backpacking is not a good choice for campers.
C. People should never camp deep in the woods.
D. People should not go camping alone.
11. What is the passage mainly about?
A. The meaning of camping. B. How to live through a storm when camping.
C. How to travel safely. D. Car camping is the safest.
【答案】8. D 9. B 10. A 11. B
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了户外露营遭遇暴风雨时可采取的安全躲避的方法。
【8题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段“On the one hand, your tent and a picnic shelter will keep you dry, but they offer little or no protection against lightning. Your car, on the other hand, will keep you dry and protect you from lightning strikes.(一方面,你的帐篷和野餐帐篷会让你保持干燥,但它们对雷击的保护很少或根本没有。另一方面,你的车会让你保持干燥,保护你免受雷击。)”可知,为了在暴风雨中避免闪电,你最好待在车里,故选D。
【9题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段“Protecting yourself against possible lightning strikes is very important; lightening kills an average of 62 people in the US each year.(保护自己免受雷击是非常重要的;美国每年平均有62人死于雷击。)”可知,闪电对露营者来说很危险,故选B。
【10题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段“Of course, if you’re going backpacking (背包旅行), not car camping, and you’re deep in the woods, your car won’t be a good choice. So, what should you do if your car is far away and there’s no other safe shelter nearby? First, you’ll have to make sure that tree branches or other objects don’t fall on you or your campsite. Then you’ll have to get in a safe position to avoid lightning, or flash flood conditions. What else should you do?(当然,如果你是背包旅行,而不是汽车露营,而且你在树林深处,你的车就不是一个好的选择。那么,如果你的车离得很远,附近又没有其他安全的避难所,你该怎么办呢?首先,你必须确保树枝或其他物体不会砸到你或你的营地。然后你必须找到一个安全的位置,以避免闪电或山洪暴发的情况。你还应该做什么呢?)”可推知,露营时学会保护自己是很重要的,故选A。
【11题详解】
主旨大意题。通读全文,尤其第一段“Then you hear what sounds like thunder in the distance. What should you do?(然后你听到远处有雷鸣般的声音。你应该怎么做?)”和第二段中“ It’s a common question for many hikers and campers, especially when they are camping during summer months.(对于许多徒步旅行者和露营者来说,这是一个常见的问题,尤其是当他们在夏季露营时)”可知,本文主要介绍了户外露营遭遇暴风雨时可采取的安全躲避的方法。所以B选项“露营时如何度过暴风雨”符合题意,故选B。

Pan Zhanle of China broke his own world record on the way to winning the men’s 100-meter freestyle Wednesday night, finishing in 46.40 seconds for his country’s first swimming gold medal of the Paris Olympics.
That mark topped his 46.80 swum at the February world championships in Doha.
“It was a magical moment, really magical,” Pan said. “The record was not just for the Chinese team, but for the world. This is a small step by breaking this record.”
In perhaps the most ferocious race in swimming, the 19-year-old Pan edged Kyle Chalmers of Australia, who clocked a 47.48 for silver and Romanian bronze medalist David Popovici in 47.49.
No world marks had been broken through the first four days in the pool at the Paris Games.
Chalmers won gold in the 100 free in the 2016 Rio de Janeiro Games, and was the silver medalist three years ago in Tokyo behind American Caeleb Dressel. Dressel did not qualify this time.
Pan has not been implicated in any of the doping allegations that have surrounded the Chinese swimming team in the run-up to the Olympics.
Chinese swimmers in Paris have pushed back strongly against those accusations and say they have been tested more frequently in recent months, sometimes three or four times a week.
Pan was asked about the testing and said it all seemed routine to him.
“This was standard,” he said. “The tests were done under all the regulations. I don’t think it influenced my performance.”
WADA, the World Anti-Doping Agency, put out a statement on Tuesday in response to food contamination scenarios being used to clear athletes who test positive.
“WADA is generally concerned about the number of cases that are being closed without sanction when it is not possible to challenge the contamination theory,” the statement said.
“There have been many cases of positive tests that were eventually closed without sanction as no-fault violations, sometimes with unusual methods of contamination.” WADA said it was also concerned about similar cases in the United States.
12. What is the main achievement highlighted in the article?
A. Pan Zhanle winning a gold medal in the men’s 100-meter freestyle.
B Kyle Chalmers winning silver in the men’s 100-meter freestyle.
C. David Popovici setting a new world record.
D. The Chinese swimming team winning multiple medals.
13. What was Pan Zhanle’s record-breaking time in the 100-meter freestyle?
A. 46.80 seconds B. 47.48 seconds C. 47.49 seconds D. 46.40 seconds
14. Which swimmer won the silver medal in the men’s 100-meter freestyle event?
A. Pan Zhanle B. Kyle Chalmers C. avid Popovici D. Caeleb Dressel
15. What was the concern raised by WADA in its recent statement?
A. The frequency of doping tests on athletes.
B. The handling of food contamination cases leading to positive tests.
C. The lack of new world records in swimming.
D. The performance of athletes under doping allegations.
