But it has the clearest and cleanest air. Amazingly, in this place, the sun sometimes hangs even in the midnight sky. This place is Antarctica (南极洲): the coldest, windiest and harshest (恶劣的) place on the Earth. As the world’s least-known place, Antarctica is of great interest to scientists around the world. During 30 years, China has sent many scientists to Antarctica. They mostly look at the resources under the icy land and do research about climate change and marine (海洋的) biology. Antarctica is a place with fantastic views. However, life there is very hard. Food is one of the biggest problems. Frozen food which can be heated easily is people’s daily food. Fresh vegetables are hard to grow in the cold weather. Sleep is also difficult. In Antarctica, summer lasts from November to March. During this-period, Antarctica receives sunlight 24 hours a day. In order to get some sleep, scientists cover the windows with black plastic cloth to create “night”. Working in Antarctica is dangerous, especially when meeting gale-force (七级以上的)winds. They can. easily blow people away. So there are ropes that connect buildings of some research stations. People can hold these ropes to keep their balance in strong winds. What’s more, communicating with others is difficult. Without cables and Internet in some research stations, two-way radios are the only tools to communicate. If people want to say hello to friends and relatives, they can use satellite phones. Although it is challenging to work in Antarctica, scientists’ passion to learn about this mysterious land will never end. It is hopeful that one day they will step every corner of this icy land. 37. Scientists from China go to Antarctica to ________. A. find out ways to control water pollution B. grow plants and vegetables in special condition C. research climate change and marine biology D. stop the hunters from killing the marine life 38.

My master said to John “I have never been out in such a storm!” Mr Gordon and John could not see well in the rain. We came to a wooden bridge. It was very nearly dark. We could just see that the water was over the middle of the bridge. But as that happened sometimes when the floods were out, master did not stop. The moment my feet touched the first part of the bridge, I felt sure there was something wrong. I dare (敢于) not go forward, and I made a dead stop. “Go on, Beauty,” said my master, and he gave me a touch with the whip (鞭子), but I dare not move. He gave me a sharp cut and I jumped, but I dare not go forward. “There’s something wrong, sir,” said John, and he got out and tried to lead me forward. “Come on, Beauty.” But I knew that the bridge was not safe. Just then the man on the other side saw us. “Hey! Halloo! Stop!” he cried. “What’s the matter?” shouted my master. “The bridge is broken in the middle, and part of it is carried away. If you go onto it, you’ll be into the river.” “Thank you for saving us, Beauty!” said John. He gently turned me round to the right hand road by the river side. It grew darker and darker, stiller and stiller. When we returned home the Squire told Mrs Gordon, “Black Beauty saved our lives. He knew the bridge was dangerous.” John took me to the stable. Oh!

We have seen many people from around the world express their love for Chinese culture in different forms. A growing number of foreigners have even chosen to live in China for its culture. Interested in Chinese classical literature, Canadian artist Brandon Collins-Green or Lin Buran in Chinese expresses his understanding of A Dream of the Red Chamber by Cao Xueqin and Chinese poems through thousands of paintings. Often painting throughout the night, he has created more than 4,200 works. Living alone in the center of Nanchang, he has come a long way since he first came here in 2015 to study ancient Chinese literature. Brandon loves learning about the lifestyle of ancient Chinese people. “So far, I have read the novel three times, translated most of its poems, songs, lantern riddles (谜语), and dialogues into English, and completed over 1 million words of articles and 2,000 related paintings during my PhD studies,” said Brandon with pride and satisfaction. Timur Kuvatov, director-general and editor-in-chief of the Kazakhstan Today News Agency, is a Chinese kung fu fan. He has won kung fu championships a lot of times and also served as a coach for the Kazakhstan kung fu team. “Chinese kung fu is a treasure of Chinese culture. It is not just a sport but also reflects the Chinese way of dealing with people, their understanding of life, nature, and the world,” he said. Vincent Cazeneuve, known as Wensen Qi in Chinese, is a French artist devoted to lacquer (漆器) creation. He came to live in Chongqing in 2009. His works have been shown in art institutions both in and outside of China, and his fans have even collected some of them. What is the charm of Chinese culture that attracts these people? It lies in its richness and openness. Also its cultural background differences make foreigners curious about the lifestyles, way of thinking, and values of the country. 33.

Culture differences between the East and West D In the most southern part of our planet, there’s a place that’s covered with snow and ice all year round. But it has the clearest and cleanest air. Amazingly, in this place, the sun sometimes hangs even in the midnight sky. This place is Antarctica (南极洲): the coldest, windiest and harshest (恶劣的) place on the Earth. As the world’s least-known place, Antarctica is of great interest to scientists around the world. During 30 years, China has sent many scientists to Antarctica. They mostly look at the resources under the icy land and do research about climate change and marine (海洋的) biology. Antarctica is a place with fantastic views. However, life there is very hard. Food is one of the biggest problems. Frozen food which can be heated easily is people’s daily food. Fresh vegetables are hard to grow in the cold weather. Sleep is also difficult. In Antarctica, summer lasts from November to March. During this-period, Antarctica receives sunlight 24 hours a day. In order to get some sleep, scientists cover the windows with black plastic cloth to create “night”. Working in Antarctica is dangerous, especially when meeting gale-force (七级以上的)winds. They can. easily blow people away. So there are ropes that connect buildings of some research stations. People can hold these ropes to keep their balance in strong winds. What’s more, communicating with others is difficult. Without cables and Internet in some research stations, two-way radios are the only tools to communicate. If people want to say hello to friends and relatives, they can use satellite phones. Although it is challenging to work in Antarctica, scientists’ passion to learn about this mysterious land will never end. It is hopeful that one day they will step every corner of this icy land. 37. Scientists from China go to Antarctica to ________. A. find out ways to control water pollution B. grow plants and vegetables in special condition C. research climate change and marine biology D. stop the hunters from killing the marine life 38.

The underlined word “passion” in the last paragraph may mean ________. A. full preparation B. amazing imagination C. pleasant introduction D. strong love 40. The passage is mainly about ________. A. climate changes of Antarctica B. exploring Antarctica C. how to survive in Antarctica D. views of Antarctica 第二节：阅读下面短文，从短文后所给的选项中选出能填入短文空白处的最佳选项，使短文通顺连贯，其中有两项是多余选项。 Today’s teens have grown up online. ___41___.

He started to help a rich family raise cattle at the age of seven. Wang Mian didn’t go to school because his family was poor, but he enjoyed reading very much. He often stood outside the classroom and listened to the children reading aloud carefully. Sometimes his cattle would run away everywhere when he was listening. He had to run everywhere to look for them. One day, Wang Mian lost himself in learning and walked home alone. His father was angry with him. Wang Mian promised he would not do it again, but the same thing happened a few days later. Seeing this, his mother said, “The boy is so interested in reading. We should support him.” His father agreed at last. From then on, Wang Mian read in a temple every night until morning. Soon people started to talk about the little boy and his love of reading. A man called Han Xing heard this and decided to be his teacher. With Han Xing’s help, Wang Mian learnt to read and paint very quickly. Many years later, he became a famous painter. 66.
