The Terracotta Army The Terracotta Army has stayed underground for over 2,000 years. It was in 1974 that some farmers who were digging a well discovered one of the best archeological sites on this planet. Along with the Great Wall, it became the World Cultural Heritage in 1987. The Forbidden City The Forbidden City used to be a place where no ordinary people were granted entry. It is an extravagant (奢侈的) example of ancient Chinese architecture, which has more than 8,000 rooms with golden roofs that are painted yellow and red and beautifully designed. The Forbidden City was also the imperial (皇帝的) palace of the Ming and Qing dynasties. 24 emperors lived there. Now it is known as “the Palace Museum” and is the World Cultural Heritage. Jiuzhai Valley Located in southwest China in the mountains of Sichuan Province, Jiuzhai Valley is a beautiful place with waterfalls, villages, trails, and clear icy lakes in colors of green and blue. While off-the-trail exploring and hiking are allowed to some extent, many people choose to take the park’s hop-on hop-off bus which stops in the main scenic (风景优美的) areas and allows the travelers to decide which direction they want to explore by walking. The Great Wall The Great Wall of China is a place that everyone must have heard of. It is an admirable achievement of ancient defensive architecture. The wall stretches over 13,000 miles and is easily accessible to any travelers in Beijing. 21. Who first discovered the Terracotta Army? A. Travelers. B. Scientists. C. Archeologists. D. Farmers. 22.

(1974年，一些农民在挖井时发现了这个星球上最好的考古遗址之一。)”可知，首先发现兵马俑的是农民。故选D。 【22题详解】 细节理解题。根据Jiuzhai Valley中的介绍“Located in southwest China in the mountains of Sichuan Province, Jiuzhai Valley is a beautiful place with waterfalls, villages, trails, and clear icy lakes in colors of green and blue. (九寨沟位于中国西南部四川省的山区，是一个美丽的地方，有瀑布、村庄、小径和清澈的冰湖，颜色是绿色和蓝色的。)”可知，九寨沟是四大旅游胜地中唯一的自然景观。故选C。 【23题详解】 推理判断题。根据The Terracotta Army 中的介绍“Along with the Great Wall, it became the World Cultural Heritage in 1987.( 1987年，它和长城一起被列为世界文化遗产)”可知，长城和大雁塔被列为世界文化遗产；根据The Forbidden City中的介绍“The Forbidden City was also the imperial（皇帝的）palace of the Ming and Qing dynasties. 24 emperors lived there.

I had traveled a long distance from India in order to join my parents, who had been here for three years. So I enrolled (登记) in the local high school in my new town. On the first day, I went to my second class after I had missed my first. With anxiety, I reached for the door, opening it slowly. Without paying attention to my classmates, I went straight to the teacher and asked if this was the right class. With a soft voice he answered, “Yes.” His voice comforted me a little. He gave me a sheet called Course Requirements, which I would never get in India because we didn’t have anything like that. Then he asked me to choose where I would sit. I didn’t actually want to pick a seat. In India, we had fixed seats, so I never needed to worry about that. I spent the rest of the class taking notes from the image produced by the overhead projector (投影仪). In Indian schools, we didn’t use the technology. We had to take notes as the teacher spoke. It was noon. I was very confused about when I would have lunch. I went to my next class and the bell rang as I entered. I went through the regular process of asking the teacher if I was in the right class. She said, “It’s the fourth period.” “But the bell just rang,” I said. “That is the lunch bell, young man,” she said. I apologized. Without another word I headed for the dining hall. I felt lucky because we didn’t have this in India. Everything here seemed like a hindrance I had to get through to reach my goal. At the end of the day, I was on my way to the bus which we didn’t have in India either. I saw my bus and sat down inside happily. I was thinking, today wasn’t so bad. 24. Why did the author attend an American high school? A. To live with his parents. B. To find his dream job. C. To have more time to travel. D. To make more foreign friends. 25. What do we know about the author’s first day of school? A. He went to the wrong class for the second period. B. He met some very friendly teachers and classmates. C. He got the Course Requirements sheet from his classmate. D. He experienced differences between American and Indian schools. 26. What does the underlined word “hindrance” in the last paragraph mean? A. Door. B. Period. C. Success. D. Difficulty. 27. How did the author feel at the end of the day? A. Worried. B. Happy. C. Anxious. D. Surprised. 【答案】24. A 25. D 26. D 27. B 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇记叙文，文章主要讲述了作者在美国上高中第一天的情况。 【24题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段中“I had traveled a long distance from India in order to join my parents, who had been here for three years. So I enrolled (登记) in the local high school in my new town.(我从印度远道而来，就是为了和在这里生活了三年的父母团聚。所以我在我的新城镇上了一所当地的高中)”可知，作者去美国上学是为了和父母团聚，故选A。 【25题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中“He gave me a sheet called Course Requirements, which I would never get in India because we didn’t have anything like that. Then he asked me to choose where I would sit. I didn’t actually want to pick a seat. In India, we had fixed seats, so I never needed to worry about that. I spent the rest of the class taking notes from the image produced by the overhead projector (投影仪). In Indian schools, we didn’t use the technology. We had to take notes as the teacher spoke.(他给了我一张叫做‘课程要求’的表格，我在印度永远也拿不到，因为我们没有这样的东西。然后他让我选择坐在哪里。其实我并不想选座位。在印度，我们有固定的座位，所以我从不需要担心这个问题。在剩下的时间里，我根据投影仪产生的图像做笔记。在印度的学校里，我们没有使用这项技术。老师讲课时我们必须记笔记)”可知，作者在美国上学第一天从很多方面都感受到了美国学校和印度学校的不同。故选D。 【26题详解】 词句猜测题。根据划线单词句后的“…I had to get through to reach my goal.(我达到目标必须克服……)”可猜测，划线单词hindrance为“障碍，困难”的意思，与D项Difficulty“困难”意思一致。故选D。 【27题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段中“I saw my bus and sat down inside happily. I was thinking, today wasn’t so bad.(我看到我的公共汽车，高兴地坐在里面。我在想，今天还不错)”可知，作者在一天结束时感觉是快乐的。故选B。 C People from Britain and Ireland first came to live in Australia in 1788. They brought different dialects (方言) of English with them. These different kinds of English began to mix and change. The newcomers soon began to speak with their own typical accent (口音) and vocabulary. More and more people came to Australia during the Gold Rush in the 19th and 20th centuries. Some came from Britain and Ireland; others came from non-English speaking countries. Australian English continued to grow and change. Australian English has also been influenced by American English. During the Second World War, there were many American soldiers staying in Australia. American television shows and music have been popular in Australia since the 1950s. Australians use many words that other English speakers do not use. The famous Australian greeting, for example, is G’day! A native forest is called the bush and central Australia is called the outback. Many words were brought to Australia from Britain and Ireland. For example, mate means “friend”, and it is still used in Britain. Some of these words have changed in meaning. Some words have come from Australian original languages, many of which are names for animals, plants and places, like dingo and kangaroo. Australian spelling comes from British spelling. In words like organise and realise, -ise is the expected and taught spelling method. In words like colour, favourite, -our is the normal, but nouns such as the Labor Party and Victor Harbor are spelled with -or. Program, on the other hand, is more common than programme. There are also differences in the meaning of words Australians use in different parts of the country. For example, football means “rugby” in New South Wales and Queensland, but “Australian rules football” in everywhere else in Australia. In New South Wales, a swimming costume is called a cossie or swimmers, while in Queensland it is called togs and bathers in Victoria. 28. When did American English begin to influence Australian English? A. During World War Ⅱ. B. In 1788. C. In the 1950s. D. During the Gold Rush. 29. According to the passage, which of the following is spoken only by Australians? A. Mate. B. Program. C. Rugby. D. Outback. 30. What can we know about Australian English? A. Most words were created by Australian English. B. There are different expressions about sports in Australia. C. Australian spelling is the same as British spelling. D. The same word might have different meanings in different parts of Australia. 31. What might be the best title for the text? A. The History of Australia B. The Birth of Australian English C. The Development of Australian English D. Different Kinds of English Across the World 【答案】28. A 29. D 30. D 31. C 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了澳大利亚英语的形成、发展及其特点。 【28题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第二段第一、二句“Australian English has also been influenced by American English. During the Second World War, there were many American soldiers staying in Australia.（澳大利亚英语也受到了美国英语的影响。在第二次世界大战期间，有许多美国士兵留在澳大利亚。）”可知，美国英语在二战期间开始影响澳大利亚英语，选项A符合题意。故选A项。 【29题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第三段前几句的描述“Australians use many words that other English speakers do not use...and central Australia is called the outback.（澳大利亚人使用许多其他英语使用者不使用的词汇……澳大利亚中部被称为“the outback”。）”可知，选项D的单词“Outbreak”只有澳大利亚人使用。故选D项。 【30题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章最后一段第一句“There are also differences in the meaning of words Australians use in different parts of the country. (澳大利亚人在该国不同地区使用的单词的意思也有所不同。）”可知，在澳大利亚的不同地区，同一个单词可能有不同的意思，选项D符合题意。故选D项。 【31题详解】 主旨大意题。根据文章第一段第一句“People from Britain and Ireland first came to live in Australia in 1788. They brought different dialects（方言）of English with them.（来自英国和爱尔兰的人们于1788年首次来到澳大利亚居住。他们带来了不同的英语方言。）”以及后文对澳大利亚英语的形成、发展及其特点的详细介绍可知，文章主要介绍了澳大利亚英语的形成与发展，所以选项C“澳大利亚英语的发展”作为标题最为合适。故选C项。 D Women usually live longer than men, but they also get sick more often. New research from the University of Georgia shows that eating a good diet with lots of colorful fruits and vegetables can help women stay healthier. These foods have something called carotenoids (类胡萝卜素), which are good for our eyes and brains. The study looked at many past studies and found that women get more health problems than men. These problems include diseases where the body fights itself and memory loss. Women are more likely to get these diseases because of their biology. “Women have more body fat than men which is good for having babies, but it also means they need to eat more healthy things to stay well,” said Hammond, a researcher. Why are women more vulnerable (脆弱的) to health problems? One reason is how they store vitamins (维生素) and minerals. Women’s bodies keep more fat, and fat can hold these important nutrients (营养物). This is helpful when they are having babies, but it also means there might not be enough for their eyes and brains. Eating foods with carotenoids is important because they help protect our bodies from damage. Some carotenoids are found in parts of our eyes and brains and can help with problems in the nervous system. “Both men and women eat these foods, but women need more because their bodies use them up faster,” said Hammond. The food we eat can affect our brains and how we feel. It can even change our feelings and how likely we are to get angry. Now, scientists are learning that the food we eat also affects the bacteria (细菌) in our stomachs, which are important to our health too. 32. What does the study suggest about carotenoids? A. They are only beneficial to men. B. They are not necessary for a healthy diet. C. They are good for women’s eyes and brains. D. They have no effect on the central nervous system. 33. What is one of the reasons women may need a better diet? A. Women need less food than men. B. Women’s diets are short of carbohydrates. C. Women need more vitamins to support their body fat. D. Women have a higher risk of developing health problems. 34. What is the connection between diet and the bacteria in our stomachs? A. Certain bacteria can only be found in women’s stomachs. B. The bacteria in our stomachs have nothing to do with our health. C. The bacteria in our stomachs determine our food preferences. D. The food we eat affects the bacteria in our stomachs. 35. What is the best title for the text? A. Why do women live longer than men? B. Why do women lose more memory? C. Women may have a higher risk of mental illness D. Diets with more carotenoids can help women stay healthier 【答案】32. C 33. D 34. D 35. D 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了富含类胡萝卜素的食物可以帮助女性保持健康。 【32题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第一段“These foods have something called carotenoids (类胡萝卜素), which are good for our eyes and brains.(这些食物含有一种叫做类胡萝卜素的东西，对我们的眼睛和大脑都有好处。)”可知，研究表明类胡萝卜素对女性的眼睛和大脑有好处。故选C。 【33题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章第二段“The study looked at many past studies and found that women get more health problems than men. These problems include diseases where the body fights itself and memory loss. Women are more likely to get these diseases because of their biology.(这项研究回顾了许多过去的研究，发现女性比男性更容易出现健康问题。这些问题包括自身免疫性疾病和记忆力丧失。女性由于生理原因更容易患上这些疾病。)”可知，研究发现女性比男性更容易出现健康问题，这些问题包括身体自我攻击的疾病和记忆力丧失。因此，女性需要更好的饮食来降低这些健康问题的风险。故选D。 【34题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章最后一段“Now, scientists are learning that the food we eat also affects the bacteria (细菌) in our stomachs, which are important to our health too.(现在，科学家们正在了解我们所吃的食物也会影响我们胃里的细菌，这些细菌对我们的健康也很重要。)”可知，饮食与我们胃里的细菌有关联，我们所吃的食物会影响它们。故选D。 【35题详解】 主旨大意题。根据全文内容， 结合第一段中“ New research from the University of Georgia shows that eating a good diet with lots of colorful fruits and vegetables can help women stay healthier. These foods have something called carotenoids (类胡萝卜素), which are good for our eyes and brains.(乔治亚大学的一项新研究表明，吃丰富多彩的水果和蔬菜可以帮助女性保持健康。这些食物含有类胡萝卜素，对我们的眼睛和大脑都有好处)”可知，文章主要讲述了富含类胡萝卜素的食物可以帮助女性保持健康，因此最好的标题是D项：Diets with more carotenoids can help women stay healthier (富含类胡萝卜素的食物可以帮助女性保持健康。)。故选D。 第二节（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分） 阅读下面短文，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。 Starting the high school life can be a big challenge for many students, but with the right strategies, it can be a smooth change. ___36___ .

It can also help you discover new interests and passions.(参加俱乐部和活动是结识新朋友和找到志同道合的同伴的好方法。不要害怕走出你的舒适区，尝试新事物。它还可以帮助你发现新的兴趣和激情。)”可知，在本段内容中，作者指出加入俱乐部和活动是结识新朋友和找到志同道合的同伴的好方法，可以帮助我们尝试新事物，发现新兴趣等。选项G“Every new experience is an opportunity to learn more about yourself and the world around you(每一次新的经历都是一次机会，让你更多地了解自己和周围的世界)”是上文内容的总结，指出了加入俱乐部和活动是了解自己和周围世界的好机会。故选G。 【39题详解】 根据下文内容“Remember, it’s okay to ask for help; no one expects you to know everything.(记住，寻求帮助是可以的;没有人期望你知道一切。)”可知，下文指出可以寻求帮助，由此可推断，空处指的是我们会遇到困难或感到困惑。选项D“It’s completely normal to feel at a loss at times(有时感到茫然是完全正常的)”自然引出下文内容，指出当我们感到茫然时，我们可以寻求帮助。故选D。 【40题详解】 空处为小标题，为本段主要内容。根据本段内容“High school is a time for exploration and self- discovery. It’s important to remember that everyone is in the same boat and that it’s okay to make mistakes as you learn and grow. Being receptive to different perspectives and backgrounds can help you understand and appreciate the diversity(多样性)in your new class.(高中是一个探索和自我发现的时期。重要的是要记住，每个人都在同一条船上，在你学习和成长的过程中犯错误是可以的。接受不同的观点和背景可以帮助你理解和欣赏新班级的多样性。)”可知，本段主要讨论了高中生活是一个探索和自我发现的时期，并强调了接受不同观点和背景的重要性。选项A“Stay positive and open- minded(保持积极和开放的心态)”与这一主题相符，强调了保持积极和开放心态的重要性，是这一部分的合理总结。故选A。 第三部分 英语知识运用（共三节，满分45分） 第一节 完形填空（共15小题；每小题1分，满分15分） 阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 Last Sunday we went to Hyderabad for a holiday.

Savannah is ___56___ girl from Texas. “I was trying to think how I could help them out,” she says. After hearing about firemen's sacrifices(牺牲), she ___57___ ( move) by the risks they face, so Savannah made 200 thank- you cards for them. “I want ___58___ ( show) how much I care about them.” “I told the firemen‘ thank you’,” Savannah recalls.“ They’ re always there to help you.” Savannah decided to keep ___59___ ( make ) cards. For the next seven months, she woke up early to paint and colour and cut. In that time, she ___60___ ( send )1,600 cards with bite- sized candy while meeting her ___61___( hero). Soon, fire stations started thanking her. Once too shy to give a speech at school, ___62___ is now easy for Savannah to speak regularly to firemen and school students. She is quite different ___63___ what she used to be. “ She's saying how ___64___ ( thank ) she is for them!” Savannah's Mum, Debbie, says,“ Savannah sees that stepping out and doing something can ___65___ ( real ) make a difference.” 【答案】56. a 57. was moved 58. to show 59. making 60. sent 61. heroes 62. it 63. from 64. thankful 65. really 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了一个叫萨凡纳的女孩制作感恩卡片来感恩消防员们的故事。 【56题详解】 考查冠词。句意：萨凡纳是一个来自德克萨斯州的女孩。因为这里是首次提到这个女孩，所以用不定冠词表泛指，又因为girl发音为辅音音素开头，所以用a。故填a。 【57题详解】 考查被动语态。句意：在听到消防员的牺牲后，她被他们所面临的风险所感动，所以萨凡纳为他们制作了200张感谢卡。根据下文的made可知，本句的时态为一般过去时，再根据空格后的by可知，此处表示“被感动”，所以要用一般过去时的被动语态，又因为主语是第三人人称单数，所以be动词用was。故填was moved。 【58题详解】 考查动词不定式。句意：我想表达我对他们的关心。根据空格前的want可知，此处用动词不定式作宾语构成固定搭配want to do sth表示“想要做某事”。故填to show。 【59题详解】 考查动名词。句意：萨凡纳决定继续做卡片。根据空格前的keep可知，此处用动名词作宾语构成固定搭配keep doing sth表示“保持一直做某事”。故填making。 【60题详解】 考查动词的时态。句意：在那段时间里，她在与英雄们见面时发送了1600张卡片和一口大小的糖果。根据上文woke up可知，本句表过去动作，再根据本句时间状语In that time可知，本句为一般过去时。故填 sent。 61题详解】 考查名词。句意：同上。根据下文的复数名词firemen可知，此处应该用提示词的复数形式heroes指与“英雄们”见面。故填heroes。 【62题详解】 考查代词。句意：萨凡纳曾经因为害羞而不敢在学校发表演讲，现在她很容易就能定期对消防员和学生讲话。分析句式结构可知，此处用代词it作形式主语，真正的主语是后面的动词不定式。故填it。 【63题详解】 考查介词。句意：她和过去大不相同了。根据空格前的different可知，此处用介词from构成固定搭配be different from表示“与……不同”。故填from。 【64题详解】 考查形容词。句意：她说她非常感谢他们!根据空格前的how可知，how+形容词构成感叹句结构，所以此处应该用提示词的形容词形式thankful作表语。故填thankful。 【65题详解】 考查副词。句意：萨凡纳认为，走出去做点什么真的能够有所作为。分析句式结构可知，此处用提示词的副词形式really作状语修饰短语make a difference。故填really。 第三节 单词拼写（每空1词，注意使用单词的正确形式；共10小题，每小题1.5分，满分15分） 66.

The little girl walked (自信地) onto the stage, ready for her first speech. 【答案】confidently 【解析】 【详解】考查副词。句意：小女孩自信地走上舞台，为她的第一次演讲做好了准备。修饰动词walk，用副词，结合汉语提示可知confidently符合题意。故填confidently。 69.

(根据汉语提示单词拼写) 【答案】application 【解析】 【详解】考查名词。句意：如果你们能批准我的申请，我将不胜感激。分析句子结构可知，此处位于形容词性物主代词之后，所以应填名词作主语，根据汉语提示，application意为“申请”，结合句意可知，此处为单数。故填application。 70.

The Terracotta Army The Terracotta Army has stayed underground for over 2,000 years. It was in 1974 that some farmers who were digging a well discovered one of the best archeological sites on this planet. Along with the Great Wall, it became the World Cultural Heritage in 1987. The Forbidden City The Forbidden City used to be a place where no ordinary people were granted entry. It is an extravagant (奢侈的) example of ancient Chinese architecture, which has more than 8,000 rooms with golden roofs that are painted yellow and red and beautifully designed. The Forbidden City was also the imperial (皇帝的) palace of the Ming and Qing dynasties. 24 emperors lived there. Now it is known as “the Palace Museum” and is the World Cultural Heritage. Jiuzhai Valley Located in southwest China in the mountains of Sichuan Province, Jiuzhai Valley is a beautiful place with waterfalls, villages, trails, and clear icy lakes in colors of green and blue. While off-the-trail exploring and hiking are allowed to some extent, many people choose to take the park’s hop-on hop-off bus which stops in the main scenic (风景优美的) areas and allows the travelers to decide which direction they want to explore by walking. The Great Wall The Great Wall of China is a place that everyone must have heard of. It is an admirable achievement of ancient defensive architecture. The wall stretches over 13,000 miles and is easily accessible to any travelers in Beijing. 21. Who first discovered the Terracotta Army? A. Travelers. B. Scientists. C. Archeologists. D. Farmers. 22. What’s special about Jiuzhai Valley? A. One can explore and hike where they want. B. No ordinary visitors were granted entry. C. It’s the only destination of the four for a natural landscape. D. The park’s hop-on hop-off buses are free for the travelers. 23. How many World Cultural Heritages are mentioned in the passage? A. One. B. Three. C. Two. D. Four. B Frightened, I was walking into my first school in America. I had traveled a long distance from India in order to join my parents, who had been here for three years. So I enrolled (登记) in the local high school in my new town. On the first day, I went to my second class after I had missed my first. With anxiety, I reached for the door, opening it slowly. Without paying attention to my classmates, I went straight to the teacher and asked if this was the right class. With a soft voice he answered, “Yes.” His voice comforted me a little. He gave me a sheet called Course Requirements, which I would never get in India because we didn’t have anything like that. Then he asked me to choose where I would sit. I didn’t actually want to pick a seat. In India, we had fixed seats, so I never needed to worry about that. I spent the rest of the class taking notes from the image produced by the overhead projector (投影仪). In Indian schools, we didn’t use the technology. We had to take notes as the teacher spoke. It was noon. I was very confused about when I would have lunch. I went to my next class and the bell rang as I entered. I went through the regular process of asking the teacher if I was in the right class. She said, “It’s the fourth period.” “But the bell just rang,” I said. “That is the lunch bell, young man,” she said. I apologized. Without another word I headed for the dining hall. I felt lucky because we didn’t have this in India. Everything here seemed like a hindrance I had to get through to reach my goal. At the end of the day, I was on my way to the bus which we didn’t have in India either. I saw my bus and sat down inside happily. I was thinking, today wasn’t so bad. 24. Why did the author attend an American high school? A. To live with his parents. B. To find his dream job. C. To have more time to travel. D. To make more foreign friends. 25. What do we know about the author’s first day of school? A. He went to the wrong class for the second period. B. He met some very friendly teachers and classmates. C. He got the Course Requirements sheet from his classmate. D. He experienced differences between American and Indian schools. 26. What does the underlined word “hindrance” in the last paragraph mean? A. Door. B. Period. C. Success. D. Difficulty. 27. How did the author feel at the end of the day? A. Worried. B. Happy. C. Anxious. D. Surprised. C People from Britain and Ireland first came to live in Australia in 1788. They brought different dialects (方言) of English with them. These different kinds of English began to mix and change. The newcomers soon began to speak with their own typical accent (口音) and vocabulary. More and more people came to Australia during the Gold Rush in the 19th and 20th centuries. Some came from Britain and Ireland; others came from non-English speaking countries. Australian English continued to grow and change. Australian English has also been influenced by American English. During the Second World War, there were many American soldiers staying in Australia. American television shows and music have been popular in Australia since the 1950s. Australians use many words that other English speakers do not use. The famous Australian greeting, for example, is G’day! A native forest is called the bush and central Australia is called the outback. Many words were brought to Australia from Britain and Ireland. For example, mate means “friend”, and it is still used in Britain. Some of these words have changed in meaning. Some words have come from Australian original languages, many of which are names for animals, plants and places, like dingo and kangaroo. Australian spelling comes from British spelling. In words like organise and realise, -ise is the expected and taught spelling method. In words like colour, favourite, -our is the normal, but nouns such as the Labor Party and Victor Harbor are spelled with -or. Program, on the other hand, is more common than programme. There are also differences in the meaning of words Australians use in different parts of the country. For example, football means “rugby” in New South Wales and Queensland, but “Australian rules football” in everywhere else in Australia. In New South Wales, a swimming costume is called a cossie or swimmers, while in Queensland it is called togs and bathers in Victoria. 28.

New research from the University of Georgia shows that eating a good diet with lots of colorful fruits and vegetables can help women stay healthier. These foods have something called carotenoids (类胡萝卜素), which are good for our eyes and brains. The study looked at many past studies and found that women get more health problems than men. These problems include diseases where the body fights itself and memory loss. Women are more likely to get these diseases because of their biology. “Women have more body fat than men, which is good for having babies, but it also means they need to eat more healthy things to stay well,” said Hammond, a researcher. Why are women more vulnerable (脆弱的) to health problems? One reason is how they store vitamins (维生素) and minerals. Women’s bodies keep more fat, and fat can hold these important nutrients (营养物). This is helpful when they are having babies, but it also means there might not be enough for their eyes and brains. Eating foods with carotenoids is important because they help protect our bodies from damage. Some carotenoids are found in parts of our eyes and brains and can help with problems in the nervous system. “Both men and women eat these foods, but women need more because their bodies use them up faster,” said Hammond. The food we eat can affect our brains and how we feel. It can even change our feelings and how likely we are to get angry. Now, scientists are learning that the food we eat also affects the bacteria (细菌) in our stomachs, which are important to our health too. 32. What does the study suggest about carotenoids? A. They are only beneficial to men. B. They are not necessary for a healthy diet. C. They are good for women’s eyes and brains. D. They have no effect on the central nervous system. 33. What is one of the reasons women may need a better diet? A. Women need less food than men. B. Women’s diets are short of carbohydrates. C. Women need more vitamins to support their body fat. D. Women have a higher risk of developing health problems. 34. What is the connection between diet and the bacteria in our stomachs? A. Certain bacteria can only be found in women’s stomachs. B. The bacteria in our stomachs have nothing to do with our health. C The bacteria in our stomachs determine our food preferences. D. The food we eat affects the bacteria in our stomachs. 35. What is the best title for the text? A. Why do women live longer than men? B. Why do women lose more memory? C. Women may have a higher risk of mental illness D. Diets with more carotenoids can help women stay healthier 第二节（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分） 阅读下面短文，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。 Starting the high school life can be a big challenge for many students, but with the right strategies, it can be a smooth change. ___36___ .
