B Hat,gloves,coat,scarf pulled over my face-check.And out I adventured under a moonlit sky spotted with a million stars.I was part way through my dream holiday to Lapland. The day's agenda was a journey by bus and train from Tromsa,Norway,to Abisko,Sweden, through Narvik,and I had no idea what a magical experience it would turn out to be. The silence of the sleeping city was broken only by the hurried,rhythmic advancing of my boots on the morning snow,trying to make it to the bus before tiny pieces of ice could form on my head.Despite the early hour,the bus was half full,with the smell of packed breakfasts hung in the air.Leaving behind the deserted city streets,it moved over the snow-packed roads.We passed lonely wooden houses built on hillsides,windows lit by candles burning bright,and stretching my neck to look upwards,I saw the outlines of rolling mountain peaks.I was attracted by the fairy tale scenery. Nearing Narvik,the road hugged the sides of a deep,black valley,and once at the railway station,I wandered along a foot-printed pathway through the knee-high snow, gratefully diving into my train's warm carriage.As soon as we set off,the train climbed along 英语试卷第4页共12页 the mountain sides,as I looked back at the now distant valley.The track-side snow deepened, often reaching the window frames of the colourful buildings in villages with not a soul in sight.I had never seen so much snow,and I couldn't tear myself away from the unfolding scenery as we dragged along towards Sweden. All too soon,the train arrived at its destination and,hesitantly,I gathered my belongings, ready for the next part of my trip.While I wasn't luckyenough to witness the Northern Lights in Abisko,I did so later on in my trip.But I will never forget the magical journey I took that day across an Arctic fairy tale wonderland. 24.Where did the author change transport?

A.Train trip. B.Bus trip C.Road danger. D.Snowstorm. 27.What probably amazed the author the most during the day's trip? A.The delicious cuisine. B.The splendid civilization. C.The breathtaking scenery. D.The convenient transportation. C Sachin Oza always seemed to catch whatever cold and flu viruses were flying around. Despite being only in his mid-30s,he felt out of shape and out of sorts.He realised that if he didn't make some changes,his immune(function would continue to worsen with age. "I have a family background of critical diseases,"says Oza,"I had to take action." So he began a 15-year journey to fix his health.He made some changes to his diet.He introduced more raw fruit and vegetables and cut down on junk food.He started going for runs,and began resistance training and stretching.He also became interested in mindfulness, practising deep-breathing. Now 49,Oza feels like a new man."I catch colds far less frequently than before,"he says.His aches and pains haye eased and his stress levels are lower."I no longer wake up in the early hours,which has made a huge difference in how I feel." Our immune function is extremely complex."We're still struggling to understand it," 英语试卷第5页共12页 says Dr Donald."We've made progress in the last 50 years,but it's a young field."Aspects of our immune system are found throughout our bodies,from our skin to our brains.All of these moving parts assist each other.Some are tools we're bom with,already ready to recognise and fight against certain attackers-known as imate immunity().Others are instruments for figuring out how to defend against vinses we encounter for the first time,called adaptive immunity. Because of this complexity,anyone seeking a quick fix or miracle pill is out of luck. People expect to boost the immune system as if it were a muscle,but it's far from that simple. Actually,immune system works best when we support our general health-and researchers are exposing more links between the choices we make and how well our immune systems work. 28.What forced Sachin to make a change to his life? A.Start of his old age. B.His critical disease. C.His failing immune system. D.His unhealthy lifestyle. 29.Which of the following can best descnibe Sachin? A.Enthusiastic and resistant. B.Resolved and active. C.Stressed and pessimistic. D.Cautious and conservative. 30.What can we know from paragraph 4? A.Innate immunity defend us from all vinses. B.Adaptive immunity is what we are bom with. C.Aspects of our immune system work separately. D.Understanding of our immunity is far from enough. 31.What's the best title of the passage? A.Oze:My Failing Immunity B.Immunity:Rely on Life Choices C.Oze:Work out for the Health D.Immunity:Defender of the World To understand the medieval (climate of Europe,climate scientists are now turning to a rich historical resource:wine Records of grape harvests of Europe stretching back to the 1400s can provide a powerfule to figure out past temperatures. Bronnimann,a climate scientist at iversity of Bemn,has shown in Climate of the Past that the reported sweetness of before fermentation()can chart local 英语试港第6页共12页 temperatures.After grapes were harvested and pressed,the resulting juice,orwine must," would be sampled and rated by local experts.The more sugar,the more alcohol would end up in the wine.And it's long been known that high temperatures boost a grape's sugar content. Hot years led to popular wines on the market,such as 1811's Comet Wine. The Bern group hunted through archives()to dig up sugar rating records from 10 locations across France,Germany,Switzerland,and Luxembourg,screening them against records for historical events,such as war,or disease,that might have prevented a perfect harvest time.For the remaining records,the sugar ratings varied in step by location,showing its value as a local temperature proxy. Some mysteries appeared in the data.The 1470s,for example,had the highest rated wine must,suggesting Europe went through a warm spell even as it entered a cool period known as the Little Ice Age."But we don't really know what happened then,"Bronnimann says.To try to find out,the team has begun feeding wine records into a new climate model,released this year,which attempts to copy global conditions on a month-by-month basis from the 1400s onward. The sugar ratings continue to this day,though now with modern tools,and Bronnimann's team found they similarly do a good job charting modemn-day global warming.Starting around the late 1980s,ratings of sugar content began to rise sharply.It seems global warming has been good for European wine harvests. 32.Why did the climate scientists turn their focus to wine? A.To get an insight in past climate. B.To get the hang of grape harvests C.To get familiar with European history. D.To acquire sufficient research resources. 33.What does the author mainly intend to do in Paragraph 2? A.To provide different examples. B.To expose the underlying logic. C.To challenge experts'opinions. D.To summarize previous paragraph. 34.What does the underlined word"proxy"in paragraph 3 mean? A.Warning. B.Control. C.Influencer. D.Indicator. 35.What can we infer about the application of sugar ratings? A.It contributes to global warming. B.It replaces modern equipment. C.It offers research inspiration. D.It addresses a historical mystery. 英语试卷第7页共12页 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。 Every time I drive somewhere,I rely on the GPS(Global Positioning System)on my phone to guide me to my destination.36 It makes me wonder:Is there anything I can do to improve my skills in finding the way?The answer is yes.If you also want to gain confidence on the road or be less reliant on GPS to get around,here are some steps you can take to boost your sense of direction. Use landmarks to orient(确定方位)yourself If you are unsure of your direction relative to home,landmarks can help you orient yourself.According to Mary Hegarty,a cognitive()psychologist,ideal landmarks for orientation are large and far-away structures.37 Mary Hegarty lives in Santa Barbara.She uses the mountains there as landmarks and knows they are north no matter where she is in the city. 38 Whether you're going somewhere new or to a place you've been to loads of times,it is a good habit to turn around and observe the view behind you.According to Hegarty,it helps you memorize the details of your routc.39 Understand the layout of the city If you're trying to figure out where you are in a new place,it helps to understand the basic street layout-the arrangement of streets.The street layout often follows a certain pattern,with the grid()pattern being quite common among cities.40 is divided into four sections and has streets that run three ways:north-south,east-west and at an angle.To orient yourself,locate your position relative to the main directions.
