His parents fought to get him into mainstream schools so his bright mind could develop. Although every day brought new obstacles (阻碍), he kept pushing himself to succeed. He figured out ways to care for himself, type on a computer, and even play sports. As Nick says, “I am always looking for better ways to finish even the simplest job.” Childhood was not smooth for Nick. By the age of eight , he was already experiencing depression (抑郁症). He was laughed at by classmates and felt he was a burden on his parents. This led to thoughts about suicide (⾃杀). After all, what kind of future could a boy without arms or legs really have? After graduating from university, Nick hit the road as a speaker. Audiences as large as 110,000 gather to hear him talk about overcoming obstacles and believing in yourself. Nick and his personal stories make everyone from students to businessmen laugh and cry. He helps his audiences understand that with the right way of thinking, they can turn any challenge into an opportunity. As a speaker, writer, and role model, Nick continues to touch the minds and hearts of people around the world. He tells people to live life without limits. “If a man without arms or legs is dreaming big,” he says with a smile, “why can't we all?” 24. What did Nick experience in childhood? A. He traveled a lot to see doctors. B. He was laughed at by other kids. C. He did bad things to hurt his parents. D. He spoke to millions of people. 25. What can we know about Nick? A. He thought of helping parents when he was little. B. He stopped going to school at the age of eight. C. He has influenced many people. 第 3 ⻚ 共 6 ⻚ D. He dislikes to share his life experiences with others. 26. What is the main idea of the text? A. How a man with no arms or legs has survived. B. Aman without arms or legs has chosen a life of purpose. C. The love of parents can make everything right. D. Friendship is important in a person's life. 27. Which of the following sayings may be from Nick? A. Humor is not a mood but a way of looking at the world. B. It is human nature to think wisely and act foolishly. C. Don't wait for leaders; do it alone, person to person. D. If I fail, I try again, and again, and again. C On my first round-the-world trip in 2006，1 planned everything out in advance. 1 knew where I was going,how long I was going to stay，and how I would get there. And then halfway I ditched the plan and went with the flow. Over the years,how I plan my travel has changed. Now， I'm a last-minute planner and seldom travel with any plan. Travelling without a plan gives you great flexibility(灵活性).Since nothing is booked far in advance，you can turn to something different when you change your mind or something better comes along. I changed my plans to meet a friend on an island in Thailand and stayed for a month.I wouldn't have had that experience if I had kept to my planned schedule. However，most new travellers are the opposite--they overplan their trips. Their whole journey is scheduled.Two days here, three days there. I understand why people do that. When time is short, you want to see as much as possible. You don't want to waste a single second. Actually，it is better to slow down your pace. Spending more time in one place allows you to get a better feel for the rhythm of life. You can visit at a more relaxed pace,see more than just the attractions,and open up your schedule to the happy accidents of travel. When I first made my travel plan,I tried to include everything in it. Then I realized it was unrealistic，and revised my plan. I came up with a list of one or two things I want to see each day and spaced everything out. lt's an important lesson to learn. I think the best trip plan is to work out the general path you want to take, book the first few nights of your trip， and let your travels unfold from there. This way you are never locked into a certain place if your feelings change. 28.What does the underlined word“ditched”in Paragraph1 mean? A.Considered. B.Discussed. C.Abandoned. D.Prepared. 29.What can we learn about the author from the text? A.He lives an easy life. B.He enjoys travelling freely C.He spends a lot of time travelling D.He prefers to follow others when travelling. 30.What does the author suggest about travelling? A.Working out a simple travel plan. B.Avoiding booking in advance. C.Getting prepared for the unexpected things. D.Setting a goal before making a travel plan. 31.What is the best title for the text? A.Why It's Great to Travel Without a Plan B.In Travel:Less Is More C.Travelling:Play More,Pay Less D.Why I Enjoy Travelling Around D There is hot, and then there is hot! Extreme (极端的) heat is a period of high heat and humidity with temperatures above 90 degrees Fahrenheit for at least two to three days. Extreme heat is responsible for the highest number of annual deaths among all weather-related hazards (危害). It’s not your imagination. Summers have been getting hotter and hotter with extreme heatwaves occurring earlier and more frequently. But why is this happening and can we better predict heatwaves in advance to give people time to prepare? “Climate change is here and it’s already been changing human behavior and causing significant influence in the society. As global temperatures rise, historically excessive (过⾼ ) temperatures are more likely to occur,” says Craig Ramseyer, an assistant professor who studies climate modeling in the department of geography at Virginia Tech. Ramseyer says heatwaves are the most concerning because of the lack of attention they normally receive. “Hurricanes, tornadoes, and flash floods drive more media attention 第 4 ⻚ 共 6 ⻚ because of the natural attraction with the visual impact of those types of hazards. However, heat does not tend to be as attractive and it becomes very difficult to communicate the danger to the public,” said Ramseyer. “Around the world, more deaths occur due to extreme heat than from hurricanes, flooding, and drought combined. It impacts the most helpless of our citizens who do not have enough access to air conditioning (空调系统) , water, and other important resources.” Since the Earth is running warmer than it used to, Ramseyer says that when these heatwave-related weather patterns take place, it results in higher extreme temperatures than we used to experience 30 years ago. “As a global community, we need to decrease carbon emissions as soon as possible. We have rapidly developing technologies that are going to help advance the process, but the faster the better, there is no time to waste.” 32. What can we learn from the article? A. Extreme heat is a No.1 death cause. B. People are suffering more extreme heat. C. A 100-degree heat is an extreme heat. D. Extreme heat is getting better over the years. 33. What will Ramseyer possibly agree with? A. Climate change will soon affect human behaviors. B. High temperatures happened frequently in history. C. Air conditioning and water can reduce people’s feeling of extreme heat. D. Garbage sorting can less advance the climate change. 34. Why is extreme heat lack of attention? A. Extreme heat can be stopped by technology. B. People have enough time to solve the climate problems. C. The danger of extreme heat is not easily transferred to the public. D. Heatwave-related weather patterns will decrease in the future. 35. What’s the article mainly about? A. Complaints about extreme heat. B. Prevention of extreme heat. C. Characters of extreme heat. D. Technologies behind extreme heat. 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。 Life is a constant exercise in self-improvement. In the rush to achieve, the idea of being “better” can become lost sometimes. 36 . And you want to achieve your dreams in an easier way. Here are some tips for you. 37 . Everybody has some outstanding skills or interests. So it’s often necessary to be patient and try many things before you find one that suits you. Register in a class you’re interested in.

If you feel your job isn’t meaningful, or isn’t in line with your values, consider finding another job. Experience something new. Research has shown that when we’re in our comfort zone (舒适区), we aren’t as productive as we are when we step just beyond it. Human adapts very quickly to positive events. Because of that, we may react slowly to our own positive experiences. It’s important to have new experiences and interactions with others, even when those are a little scary. 40 . A.
