Under the organization of the parent association (协会), the students began a 5-kilometer morning jogging program in a park of Beijing, with the aim of improving their fitness, building self-confidence, and developing patience. Every Saturday morning, with a parent chosen as the coach to guide them, they laced up their shoes and set off. The first run was a real challenge. After running just several hundred meters, a few students were out of breath. Some couldn’t even make it halfway, and others had to rely on each other for support to reach the finish line. However, despite the many difficulties, their determination never wavered (动摇). Along the way, many felt energetic. Most made it to the end by completing their 100th run on Saturday to celebrate their upcoming graduation, as they had been exercising regularly. In recent years, some surveys have shown that the rate of obesity among students who are short of exercise is increasing rapidly. According to an authority report, one in five individuals aged six to seventeen is now overweight, a significant rise from one in twenty in 1995. In addition to weight problems, the lack of exercise has also led to an increase of short-sightedness in schools. Recognizing the potential link between decreased physical activity and health-related problems, various measures have been taken to reduce students’ academic pressure and increase their exercise time, such as reducing the after-school homework burden. The sixth-grade jogging program serves as an inspiring example, offering a solution to help students find more time to experience health, happiness, and friendship through physical activity. It shows that with devotion and support, even a simple jogging routine can have a great effect on the well-being of young students. 24. Why did the parent association organize the morning jogging program? A. To meet the parents’ requirements. B. To live up to the coach’s expectations. C. To improve the students’ physical and mental health. D. To replace the school’s present physical education classes. 25. What can we learn about the students in the first run? A. Few of them felt energetic. B. Most of them gave up halfway. C. None of them completed the run. D. Not all of them made it to the end. 26. How is the seriousness of being overweight on students showed in paragraph 3? A. Through an unofficial report. B. Through data comparison. C. Through the schools’ prediction. D. Through individual imagination. 27. Which word can best describe the morning program? A. Influential. B. Traditional. C. Global. D. Commercial. C What will restaurants look like in the future? What would your dinner taste like if a robot cooked it? A robot restaurant in Tianjin may give you the answers. Covering an area of over 400 square meters with a total of 112 seats, the X Future Restaurant is a robot restaurant that opened in November 2018. The restaurant has amazed customers with its fully-automated (全自动的) technology, which covers every step of the dining experience, from ordering to cooking to serving the dishes and even taking payment. Entering the restaurant, one can order dishes by simply scanning the QR codes on the table. There are over 40 choices of dishes. After taking the order, “robot cooks” prepare dishes using fixed time, temperature and ingredients designed by famous Chinese cooks. “As the cooking is controlled by a computer system, the taste and quality of dishes can be good,” said Li Xiaokui, manager of the X Future Restaurant. Robots also complete the delivery of dishes. Without following any designed route, the robot waiters serve meals thanks to automated driving technology, which helps each robot timely change its route when something is in the way. These eye-catching technologies have received wide praise from customers. “The dishes taste surprisingly good. I couldn’t believe that they were made by robots, especially dishes that were difficult to cook.” one customer said. “The application of robots has increased our efficiency and cut down our costs,” Li said, “I think robot restaurants will develop fast and have a bright future.” 28. What do we know about the X Future Restaurant? A. It covers over 112 square meters with 400 seats. B. Robot waiters deliver dishes following fixed routes. C. Customers could enjoy fully-automated services. D. Robot cooks design dishes by themselves. 29. What’s special about the dishes in the X Future Restaurant? A. They are prepared by human cooks. B. They are not easy for robots to prepare. C. They are not accepted by customers. D. They are ordered by scanning QR codes. 30. What can be inferred from the passage? A. The choices of dishes are limited. B. It takes a long time for the robots to prepare the dishes. C. Customers are willing to dine in the restaurant. D. The delivery routes are designed by the waiters. 31. What is Li’s attitude toward the future of robot restaurants? A. Hopeful. B. Doubtful. C. Puzzled. D. Worried. D Dolphins are much more intelligent than humans previously thought. Scientists have recently discovered that bottle-nosed dolphins can identify themselves in the mirror — much like you and I can! When you see a zit (青春痘) on your face, what do you do? Go to the mirror time and again, and wonder what it is still doing there. Well, this is exactly what two male bottle-nosed dolphins, Presley and Tab, do as well. So, these lovable aquatic animals (水栖动物) are not just sailors, friends, but they are also aware of their bodies — almost like humans! A Reuters news agency report in The Telegraph newspaper reports says that Presley and Tab stay in a pool with reflective glass walls in the New York Aquarium. Researchers in the wildlife Conservation society’s Osborn Laboratories of Marine science noticed that when Presley and Tab saw their own reflections, they did not seem to think that they were looking at another dolphin. Dolphins are very social creatures, and are friendly with humans as well as their own kind. This got the researchers thinking. Perhaps the dolphins identified their own images? So they decided to find out. Using non-toxic (无毒的) ink, they made marks on different parts of the dolphins’ bodies, changing the place every week. Every time their bodies were marked, the dolphins made more trips to the mirror than usual. If the ink mark was on their tummy (肚子), they would expose their tummy to the mirror and look at it for a long time. Now doesn’t that sound familiar? Imagine the dolphins wondering — “Now where did that mark come from? I wonder how long it’s going to stay?” Till now, only the great apes like the chimps, the gorillas and the orangutans have displayed this quality of identifying their images in the mirror. All other animals have failed this test. The researchers feel that these findings may increase human understanding towards dolphins, which are being hunted and killed in great numbers. Dolphin fins are considered to be a very delicious dish in several south-East Asian countries. 32. What have scientists discovered about bottle-nosed dolphins? A. They can recognize their bodies in the mirror. B. They tend to have human awareness. C. They love to see the reflections of their bodies. D. They build social networks with humans and their own kind. 33. How did the researchers carry out their experiment? A. They communicated more with the dolphins. B. They made the dolphins trip more to the mirror. C. They drew special symbols on the dolphins’ bodies. D. They made the dolphins expose their tummy to the mirror. 34. Which statement can Not be inferred from the text? A. Dolphins are not being protected well. B. Dolphins care much more about their images. C. Dolphins get along well with humans. D. Dolphins are as smart as the great apes like the chimps. 35. What’s the best title of the text? A. Dolphins: An Endangered species in Need of Attention B. Dolphins: social Beings with unique Communication skills C. Dolphins: Aquatic Animals Fond of Their own self-reflection D. Dolphins: smart Creatures Capable of self-recognition in Mirrors 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。 Benefits of Owning a Dog There’s a reason why dogs are called man’s best friends.

He fishes in competitions. Two months ago, Bernie asked me to join his team for a fishing competition, and I decided to do it. I had six weeks to practice for the competition, so I started to go fishing every weekend. Bernie showed me the places in the river that fish usually like, for example around a fallen tree. But I got my biggest fish under a bridge, and Bernie caught a big one by a broken boat. The morning of the competition arrived, and we started fishing. Nothing happened for two hours, but then I pulled in my first competition fish! We fished until the end of the day, but no one caught a fish heavier than mine. Bernie and the team were pleased with my fish and we won fourth place out of ten teams. 第二部分 阅读(共两节，满分50分) 第一节(共15小题;每小题2.5分，满分37.5分) 阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。 A Chinese poetry through the guqin: a practical tool to learn Chinese language and culture Confucius said: “To educate somebody, you should start with poetry, and finish with music”.

Under the organization of the parent association (协会), the students began a 5-kilometer morning jogging program in a park of Beijing, with the aim of improving their fitness, building self-confidence, and developing patience. Every Saturday morning, with a parent chosen as the coach to guide them, they laced up their shoes and set off. The first run was a real challenge. After running just several hundred meters, a few students were out of breath. Some couldn’t even make it halfway, and others had to rely on each other for support to reach the finish line. However, despite the many difficulties, their determination never wavered (动摇). Along the way, many felt energetic. Most made it to the end by completing their 100th run on Saturday to celebrate their upcoming graduation, as they had been exercising regularly. In recent years, some surveys have shown that the rate of obesity among students who are short of exercise is increasing rapidly. According to an authority report, one in five individuals aged six to seventeen is now overweight, a significant rise from one in twenty in 1995. In addition to weight problems, the lack of exercise has also led to an increase of short-sightedness in schools. Recognizing the potential link between decreased physical activity and health-related problems, various measures have been taken to reduce students’ academic pressure and increase their exercise time, such as reducing the after-school homework burden. The sixth-grade jogging program serves as an inspiring example, offering a solution to help students find more time to experience health, happiness, and friendship through physical activity. It shows that with devotion and support, even a simple jogging routine can have a great effect on the well-being of young students. 24. Why did the parent association organize the morning jogging program? A. To meet the parents’ requirements. B. To live up to the coach’s expectations. C To improve the students’ physical and mental health. D. To replace the school’s present physical education classes. 25. What can we learn about the students in the first run? A. Few of them felt energetic. B. Most of them gave up halfway. C. None of them completed the run. D. Not all of them made it to the end. 26. How is the seriousness of being overweight on students showed in paragraph 3? A. Through an unofficial report. B. Through data comparison. C. Through the schools’ prediction. D. Through individual imagination. 27. Which word can best describe the morning program? A. Influential. B. Traditional. C. Global. D. Commercial. 【答案】24. C 25. D 26. B 27. A 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了学校开展晨跑项目来促进学生身心健康。 【24题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“Under the organization of the parent association (协会), the students began a 5-kilometer morning jogging program in a park of Beijing, with the aim of improving their fitness, building self-confidence, and developing patience.(在家长协会的组织下，学生们在北京的一个公园开始了一个5公里的晨跑项目，目的是提高他们的身体素质，建立自信，培养耐心)”可知，家长协会组织晨跑是为了促进学生身心健康。故选C。 【25题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“Some couldn’t even make it halfway, and others had to rely on each other for support to reach the finish line. However, despite the many difficulties, their determination never wavered (动摇). Along the way, many felt energetic. Most made it to the end by completing their 100th run on Saturday to celebrate their upcoming graduation, as they had been exercising regularly.(有些人甚至不能走到一半，有些人不得不互相支持才能到达终点线。然而，尽管困难重重，他们的决心从未动摇。一路上，许多人都感到精力充沛。大多数人在周六完成了第100次跑步，以庆祝即将到来的毕业，因为他们一直在定期锻炼)”可知，并不是所有学生都坚持到了最后。故选D。 【26题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“In recent years, some surveys have shown that the rate of obesity among students who are short of exercise is increasing rapidly. According to an authority report, one in five individuals aged six to seventeen is now overweight, a significant rise from one in twenty in 1995. In addition to weight problems, the lack of exercise has also led to an increase of short-sightedness in schools.(近年来，一些调查显示，在缺乏锻炼的学生中，肥胖率正在迅速上升。根据一份权威报告，现在6至17岁的年轻人中有五分之一超重，比1995年的二十分之一显著上升。除了体重问题，缺乏锻炼也导致了学校近视的增加)”可知，第3段通过数据比较说明学生超重的严重性。故选B。 【27题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“The sixth-grade jogging program serves as an inspiring example, offering a solution to help students find more time to experience health, happiness, and friendship through physical activity.

Scientists have recently discovered that bottle-nosed dolphins can identify themselves in the mirror — much like you and I can! When you see a zit (青春痘) on your face, what do you do? Go to the mirror time and again, and wonder what it is still doing there. Well, this is exactly what two male bottle-nosed dolphins, Presley and Tab, do as well. So, these lovable aquatic animals (水栖动物) are not just sailors, friends, but they are also aware of their bodies — almost like humans! A Reuters news agency report in The Telegraph newspaper reports says that Presley and Tab stay in a pool with reflective glass walls in the New York Aquarium. Researchers in the wildlife Conservation society’s Osborn Laboratories of Marine science noticed that when Presley and Tab saw their own reflections, they did not seem to think that they were looking at another dolphin. Dolphins are very social creatures, and are friendly with humans as well as their own kind. This got the researchers thinking. Perhaps the dolphins identified their own images? So they decided to find out. Using non-toxic (无毒的) ink, they made marks on different parts of the dolphins’ bodies, changing the place every week. Every time their bodies were marked, the dolphins made more trips to the mirror than usual. If the ink mark was on their tummy (肚子), they would expose their tummy to the mirror and look at it for a long time. Now doesn’t that sound familiar? Imagine the dolphins wondering — “Now where did that mark come from? I wonder how long it’s going to stay?” Till now, only the great apes like the chimps, the gorillas and the orangutans have displayed this quality of identifying their images in the mirror. All other animals have failed this test. The researchers feel that these findings may increase human understanding towards dolphins, which are being hunted and killed in great numbers. Dolphin fins are considered to be a very delicious dish in several south-East Asian countries. 32. What have scientists discovered about bottle-nosed dolphins? A. They can recognize their bodies in the mirror. B. They tend to have human awareness. C. They love to see the reflections of their bodies. D. They build social networks with humans and their own kind. 33. How did the researchers carry out their experiment? A. They communicated more with the dolphins. B. They made the dolphins trip more to the mirror. C. They drew special symbols on the dolphins’ bodies. D. They made the dolphins expose their tummy to the mirror. 34. Which statement can Not be inferred from the text? A. Dolphins are not being protected well. B. Dolphins care much more about their images. C. Dolphins get along well with humans. D. Dolphins are as smart as the great apes like the chimps. 35. What’s the best title of the text? A. Dolphins: An Endangered species in Need of Attention B. Dolphins: social Beings with unique Communication skills C. Dolphins: Aquatic Animals Fond of Their own self-reflection D. Dolphins: smart Creatures Capable of self-recognition in Mirrors 【答案】32. A 33. C 34. B 35. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章讲述了科学家通过研究发现瓶鼻海豚可以在镜子里识别出自己。 【32题详解】 细节理解题 。根据第一段中的“Scientists have recently discovered that bottle-nosed dolphins can identify themselves in the mirror-much like you and I can!

(野生动物保护协会奥斯本海洋科学实验室的研究人员注意到，当普雷斯利和塔布看到自己的影子时，它们似乎并不认为自己在看另一只海豚)”可知，科学家最近发现瓶鼻海豚可以在镜子中识别自己的身体，也能像人类一样意识到自己的身体，但是，当它们看到自己的影子时，它们似乎并不认为自己在看另一只海豚，说明它们能识别出自己的形象，但不能说明它们非常在意自己的形象。故选B项。 【35题详解】 主旨大意题 。通读全文，并根据第一段中的“Scientists have recently discovered that bottle-nosed dolphins can identify themselves in the mirror-much like you and I can! (科学家最近发现，瓶鼻海豚可以像你我一样在镜子里认出自己！)”可知，文中明确提到了科学家发现瓶鼻海豚可以在镜子中识别自己，这一发现表明海豚是非常聪明的生物，具有自我识别的能力。选项D“Dolphins: smart Creatures Capable of self-recognition in Mirrors (海豚：能够在镜子中自我识别的聪明生物)”最贴切地反映了文章的主题。故选D项。 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。 Benefits of Owning a Dog There’s a reason why dogs are called man’s best friends.

(照顾一只狗——或者任何其他宠物——所带来的心理、生理和社会益处是众多的。)” 可知，上文作者将狗比作人类最好的朋友，并列举了好朋友的特质。本空位于该比喻之后，应承接这一比喻，说明狗正是能提供这些支持的朋友。D选项“And that’s exactly what a dog can do for its owner.
