B During the lively Paris Olympics,while the spotlight shone on the athletes,a group of unsung heroes worked tirelessly behind the scenes-the Olympic volunteers.This year,out of 300,000 applicants,around 45,000 were chosen as volunteers,with 20 percent coming from nearly 150 countries.These volunteers wore bright green uniforms (to be easily noticed in the purple venues )They offered help to viewers and media alike,making them an important part ot the Olympic experience. On my first day as a reporter,I met a technical problem with my media system account. Thankfully,Chinese volunteer Guo came to help me out."I hope to improve my language, communication skills,and problem-solving methods through this event,"said 24-year-old Guo from Wuhan,Central China's Hubei Province,who was studying wireless communication at the Paris Institute of Digital Technology.As a former professional swimmer,Guo saw this as her chance to take part in the Olympics,though in a different role.Another Chinese volunteer,Yang,faced challenges in managing her job and volunteer duties.Despite giving up her holidays,she felt great pride in contributing to the event. One of my most memorable experiences was meeting with a French volunteer.When I needed help to find the visitor center,,a young man on a scooter(小型摩托车)appeared,.like a sort of "Monkey King riding a cloud",and offered to take me there.After helping me,he expressed his admiration for the Beijing Olympics and his desire to visit China again. Volunteers like them were seen everywhere-from bus stops to competition verues-offering directions and helping with a smile.When large crowds left the venues after the events,causing overcrowding,some volunteers sat on high chairs with loudspeakers,providing directions to go 第2页共8页 outside in both English and French with a smile.These amazing volunteers,truly show the Olympic spirit,making the event and Paris shine even brighter. 14.Why might the volunteers wear bright green uniforms?

B.To show the meaning of hosting Olympic Games. C.To praise the service of Paris Olympic volunteers. D.To provide a detailed schedule of Olympic events. 17.How is the text mainly developed? A.By discussing historical Olympic events. B.By listing the benefits of volunteer work. C.By comparing different views on Olympics. D.By sharing personal stories and experiences. C Artificial Intelligence(AI)has greatly sped up how long it takes to sort,label and analyze() animal sounds-as well as to figure out which aspects of those sounds might carry meaning.One day we'll be able to use AI to build a chat box that translates complex animal sounds into human language.Project CETI is just one organization working toward this goal. "AI could eventually get us to the point where we understand animals,but that's hard to deal with and long-term,"says Karen Bakker,a researcher at the University of British Columbia in Vancouver,Canada."Some species have been on the planet longer than humans.Some species could go extinct before we figure out their language,"Bakker adds."Besides,the idea of walking around with an animal translator may seem cool,but many animals might not be interested in chatting." "Why would a bat want to speak to you?"she asks.What interests her is what we can learn from how bats and other creatures talk amongst each other."We should listen to nature and ask the animals'requirements in order to better protect them,"she argues.For example,a system set up to record whalcs or elephants can also truck their locations.This can help our boats avoid whales or protect elephants from poachers(偷猎者)， Protection is one goal driving Project CETI."If we understand sperm whales better,we will be better at understanding what's troubling them,"says Gasper Begus,a linguist at the University of California,Berkeley.Learning that a species has something very similar to language or culture could also inspire people to work harder to protect it. When we protect an animal that has some version of language or culture,we're not simply protecting nature and we're also saving a way of life.Marine biologist Denise Herzing says that animals are supposed to have a healthy environment so that their cultures can develop well. 第3页共8页 18.What can we infer from the first paragraph? A.We will find ways to talk with animals. B.We can share our language with animals. C.We can tell the complex animal behavior. D.We need conduct more research on animals. 19.What does Bakker think of fully understanding animals'language? A.Costly. B.Difficult. C.Harmful. D.Worthless. 20.How can we protect the animals effectively according to paragraph 3? M A.By learing about their needs. B.By setting up shelters for them. C.By mapping out their locations. D.By living peacefully with them. 21.Which statement would Herzing probably agree with? A.Protecting nature means saving ourselves. B.Animal translators should be created for protection. C.Animals'culture requires a healthy natural world to develop. D.Short-term and long-term goals for conservation need to be set. D One of the greatest killers in the Westem world is heart disease.The death rate from the disease has been increasing at an alarming speed for the past thirty years.Today in Britain,for example,about four hundred people a day die of heart disease.Medical experts know that people can reduce their chances of getting beart disease by exercising regularly,by not smoking,by changing their diets,and by paying more attention to reducing stress in their work. However,Westemn healthcare systems are still not paying enough attention to the prevention of the disease.There is a need for more programs to educate the public about the causes and prevention of heart disease.Instead of supporting such programs,however,the U.S.healthcare system is spending large sums of money on the surgical (treatment of the disease after it develops. This emphasis on treatment clearly has something to do with the technological advances that have taken place in the past ten to fifteen years.In this time,modem technology has enabled doctors to develop new surgical techniques.Many operations that were considered impossible or too risky a few years ago are now performed every day in U.S.hospitals.The result has been a huge increase in heart surgery. Although there is no doubt that heart surgery can help a large number of people,some people point out that the emphasis on the surgical treatment of the disease has three clear disadvantages. First,it attracts interest and money away from the question of prevention.Second,it causes the costs of general hospital care to rise.After hospitals buy the expensive equipment that is necessary for modern heart surgery,they must try to recover the money they have spent.To do this,they raise costs for all their patients,not just those patients whose treatment requires the equipment.The third disadvantage is that doctors are encouraged to perform surgery even on patients for whom an operation is unnecessary-because the equipment and expert skills are there.A government office recently stated that major heart surgery was often performed even though its chances of success were low.In one type of heart surgery,for example,only 15%of patients improved their conditions after the surgery.However,more than 100,000 of these operations are performed in the United States every year. 第4页共8页 22.What effect has modern technology had on medicine? A.It has reduced the costs of medical treatment. B.It has encouraged doctors to do more heart surgery C.It has educated people about the prevention of heart disease. D.It has drawn public attention to the cause of the heart disease. 23.Which of the following statement would the author probably agree with? A.More money should be spent on the prevention of heart disease. B.Heart surgery has helped most patients improve their conditions. C.Modern technology has made heart sitrgery more risky than before. D.The public have known a great deal about the causes of heart disease. 24.What does the underlined word"recover"in paragraph 3 mean? A.Burn up. B.Take in. C.Settle for. D.Get back. 25.Which would be the best title for the passage? A.The Greatest Killer in the West. B.Heart Surgery:Benefits and Risks. C.New Technology and Heart Surgery. D.Heart Disease:Treatment or Prevention? 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可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余 选项。 For some people,the warmest memories from childhood come from being read a great story.26It develops children's language skills and increases their ability to succeed in school and later work. A new report by the American Academy of Pediatrics says reading aloud is so important that parents should start as soon as their children are bom and continue to read aloud even after their children can read by themselves.They say parents should also point to and talk about pictures in books for infants(婴幼儿)._27 The company Scholastic is a major U.S.publisher of children's books.Every two years, Scholastic publishes a report on American reading attitudes and habits.The 2015 report says only 31%of children in the U.S.read a book for fun almost every day. 28 One is simply to have books in the home.Elizabeth Lyttleton,the mother of three,is lucky.Her mother once wrote and irlustrated children's books,so the family always have plenty to read.She says all her children learn from books but in different ways.29 Researchers from the Scholastic company found that 80%of children surveyed-of all ages-say they love being read to.And children ages 6 to 11 whose parents do not read to them anymore say they miss it. 30.Of all the six to 17-year-olds in the Scholastic study,more than 90%said their favorite books are the ones they chose for themselves. There are other methods that might help you with your studying. A.Do children still read for fun? B.A book does not have to be serious to be good for kids. C But reading to children does more than create warm memories D.For young children,parents should ask questions about the book. E.Another way to develop a reading habit in children is to read to them. F.Scholastic also identifies some ways to develop a love of reading in a child.
