And the industry now produces many more different kinds of plastics that are more costly to sort and in many cases can’t be recycled at all. Efforts to reduce the use of plastics are increasing worldwide, but any plan to slow the growth of plastics will cause the whole industry to lose billions of dollars in the future.(然而，回收的塑料越多，这个行业赚的钱就越少。该行业现在生产了更多不同种类的塑料，分类成本更高，在很多情况下根本无法回收。全世界都在努力减少塑料的使用，但任何减缓塑料增长的计划都将导致整个行业在未来损失数十亿美元)”可知，最后一段的主要思想是塑料回收使塑料工业陷入困境。故选C。 D篇【答案】12.

E 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了如何帮助人们制定一个计划去调节生物钟，确保起床不再是一件令人头疼的事。 【16题详解】 上文“In fact, the key to easy morning wake-up lies in resting your body clock(事实上，早晨轻松起床的关键在于让你的生物钟休息。)”指出让你的生物钟休息，能帮你早晨轻松起床，空处应该承接上文，指出怎样能让你的生物钟休息，从而实现早上轻松起床，C项“A better plan for sleep can help.(一个更好的睡眠计划会有所帮助。)”符合，引起下文，下文“Here is how to make one.(以下是制作一个睡眠计划的方法。)”中的one代指选项提到的“A better plan”，故选C。 【17题详解】 分析文章结构可知，此处是本段中心句。下文“In order to make a change, you need to decide why it’s important. Do you want to get up in time to have breakfast with your family, get in some exercise or just be better prepared for your day? Once you are clear about your reason, tell your family or roommates about the change you want to make.(为了做出改变，你需要决定为什么它是重要的。你想准时起床和家人一起吃早餐，做些运动或者只是为你的一天做更好的准备吗？一旦你清楚了你的理由，告诉你的家人或室友你想要做的改变。)”可知，本段主要讲要找到自己的动机，A项“Find the reason.(找到（起床的）理由。)”符合，能概括本段内容，故选A。 【18题详解】 下文“That’s a quarter-hour more you could be sleeping if you bought a coffee maker with a timer.(如果你买一个带定时器的咖啡机，你可以多睡一刻钟。)”指出，作者建议买一个带定时器的咖啡机，这样就能节约15分钟喝咖啡的时间，让你多睡15分钟，由此可知，空处应该引起下文，指出你在咖啡馆排队会浪费15分钟时间，所以作者建议买一个带定时器的咖啡机，G项“Reconsider the 15 minutes you spend in line at the cafe to get coffee.(重新考虑一下你在咖啡馆排队买咖啡的15分钟。)”符合，其中“the 15 minutes”呼应下文的“a quarter-hour”，故选G。 【19题详解】 根据本段中心句“Keep your sleep/wake schedule on weekends.(周末保持你的睡眠/起床时间表)”可知，本段主要建议人们在周末也要坚持自己的作息时间，上文“But compensating (弥补) on the weekends actually feeds into your sleepiness the following week, a recent study found(但最近的一项研究发现，周末的补偿实际上会让你在接下来的一周更加困倦。)”指出如果周末没有保持自己的作息时间，而是多睡觉，这实际上让自己下周更困倦，由此可知，此处强调我们应该要保持自己的作息时间，F项“Stick to your set bedtime and wake-up time, no matter the day it is.(不管是哪一天，都要坚持你设定的睡觉时间和起床时间。)”符合，对上文做出总结，故选F。 【20题详解】 上文“After you’ve tried a new method for a week, take a look at your record.(在你尝试了一个星期的新方法之后，看看你的记录。)”指出我们在尝试新方法后，要自己做好记录同时进行评估，下文“If not, take another look at other methods you could try.(如果没有，再看看其他你可以尝试的方法。)”指出尝试的新方法如果不起作用，要改变方法，由此可推知，空处应该与下文对应，指出如果方法奏效，要继续使用，E项“If the steps you take are working, keep it up.(如果你采取的措施奏效了，那就坚持下去。)”符合，故选E。 完形填空【答案】21.

Even though my current high school was not my first choice,I never regretted attending Southside High School. “Since you have chosen it, then it is the best for you,” said my parents. Up until the junior year I did not realize my capabilities(能力) as a student. Being in the IB Program, I was told that my junior year would be the toughest in all the years of high school. With this“little” piece of information,I walked into my junior year, scared of my grades. As weeks went by, I started to believe that the junior year was not as hard as everyone had said, but I was wrong. My grades were rapidly declining(下降) and by the end of the first term I had had five Cs in seven of my classes I I could not believe it — I did not want to believe it. I tried my best to get my grades up myself without any help from anyone,but my pride just made my grades worse. And I had to miss out on one of the most important speech and debate competitions all year: States. I was heartbroken. I realized that I could not survive my junior year on my own, so I had to get help fast. Once I got a tutor, my grades went from Cs, Ds, and even some Fs, to nothing but As and Bs.

C Starting in the late 1980s, the plastics (塑料) industry spent tens of millions of dollars encouraging recycling through ads and recycling projects, telling people plastics could be recycled,but their own internal records showed that industry officials long knew that plastic recycling on a large scale comes with high costs but poor results. A report sent to top industry directors in 1973 said that plastic recycling was not as easy as people thought and sorting plastic was impractical. Another document a year later showed that there was serious doubt that plastic recycling can get profits on an economic basis. Despite this, three former top officials said the industry supports recycling as a way to beat back a growing trend of stopping using plastics in the 1980s. “The plastics industry is under fire, but we want to continue to make plastic products, " Thomas, an official from a company making plastics says. “If the public think the recycling is working, then they' re not going to be so worried about the environment.” “The public gradually doubt the idea that the plastics industry could do a satisfying job in dealing with plastics and protecting the environment. But now we have already funded new technologies to change this situation. We don't want to see the pollution of the environment either and are willing to solve the problem, " says Jim Becker, vice president of Chevron Phillips Plastics Company. However, the more plastics are recycled, the less money the industry will make. And the industry now produces many more different kinds of plastics that are more costly to sort and in many cases can't be recycled at all. Efforts to reduce the use of plastics are increasing worldwide, but any plan to slow the growth of plastics will cause the whole industry to lose billions of dollars in the future. 8. What problem is mentioned in the first paragraph? A. Too expensive plastics recycling. B. Failure in recycling plastics in right ways. C. Lack of advanced technologies in plastic recycling. D. Environmental problems from increasing recycling needs. 9. According to Paragraph 3, companies making plastics . A. don't make new plastics products B. try to teach people to sort plastic products C. encourage people to recycle plastics for more sales D. think environmental problems are hard to deal with 10. What can be learned from Becker's words in Paragraph 4? A. He devotes himself to selling more high-tech products. B. He wants to change the public's understanding of plastics. C. The plastics industry is praised by the public for its efforts. D. The plastics industry starts taking on more social responsibilities. 11. What's the main idea of the last paragraph? A. Reducing plastics production has become a new trend. B. Changes in prices of plastics increase the difficulty of recycling. C. Plastics recycling puts the plastics industry in a difficult situation. D. The plastics industry spends more improving the plastics quality. D A new study, published in the Journal of Experimental Psychology, found that communication that included voice, like a phone call or video chat, created stronger social bonds than communication through typing, like text messaging or email. In the study, researchers used various experiments to measure connectedness. In one, they asked 200 people to make predictions about what it would be like to reconnect with an old friend by email or by phone and then asked people at random(随机地) to do one or the other. Although people expected that a phone call would be more awkward, hearing someone's voice actually made the experience better. “People reported they did form a significantly stronger bond with their old friend on the phone than by email, and they did not feel more awkward, " study co-author Amit Kumar, an assistant professor of marketing at the McCombs School of Business,said in a statement. In another experiment, the researchers had strangers connected by either texting, talking over video chat, or talking using only audio. They found that both forms of voice communication — whether video or audio only — made the strangers feel signifieantly more connected than when they communicated by text. Sabrina Romanoff, a Harvard trained clinical psychologist based in New York City,says people tend to text or email instead of calling because of convenience, as they see it as a controlled form of communication where they can“exchange information exactly in the way they intend without unexpected interruptions by the other person.” Romanoff says that in reality, texting can make it hard to determine the true meaning behind a conversation. “A phone call is actually more convenient when considering the exact effects of the message, " she explains. " Each party is more present, and therefore, able to measure the meaning behind the content without reflecting on the endless possible meanings behind words”. 12. How was the study carried? A. By analyzing figures B. By interviewing experts C. By doing experiments D. By doing online research 13. What did people expect before making a phone call in the experiment? A. Email would help them form a stronger bond. B. Hearing someone's voice would be embarrassing. C. A stronger bond would be formed on the phone. D. Hearing someone's voice made the experience better. 14. What does“a controlled form of communication” refer to in Paragraph 5? A.A way to talk about controlled topics. B. A way to communicate without time limit. C. A way to explain something without delay. D. A way to express thoughts without being interrupted. 15. What is the best title of the text? A.
