【解析】
【原文】W: Hello, Tom, how are you finding teaching here?
M: I get the feeling that the school is old but successful. The buildings and equipment are all so old, but amazingly, the students seem happy. The school pays attention to the all-round development of students. It seems to offer a whole range of subjects, not just English and maths.
W: I think that’s good because our school can bring together a mixture of teachers of different subjects. A geography teacher provides fresh ideas that you can use to teach your subject.
M: I have chosen English. I have always found it a real eye opener to talk to other English teachers because people’s methods of teaching the same subject can be different. Actually, I think as a teacher I should make sure I can do well in each class, but I can’t always do it.
W: Each class develops its own culture and not all teachers do well in each class. You just have to accept that you can’t teach every class well, I can’t either.
M: Maybe you are right.

【原文】M: Welcome to Yellowstone National Park. I’m John. I’ll lead the tour. This is one of the most beautiful places in the US if you look out of the window, you’ll see we’re driving next to a river. That’s the Yellowstone River. It’s an exciting river. In some parts there are waterfalls, in other parts, the river passes between very high walls of rock. We’ll find a place to enjoy ourselves on the beach later on today.
Before that, we’ll go to the famous place where hot water shoots out of a hole in the ground. The water reaches as high as 50 meters. It’s something you don’t want to Miss. We will also visit the hot springs tomorrow. Some people say that if you’re sick and go into them, you’ll get better quickly. Before we begin our time in Yellowstone, we’ll check into our hotel rooms. We’ll start the tour early, so please be back in the bus by nine. We’ll leave by 9:30. It’s eight now, so you have an hour.

In the hours after the earthquake that hit Nepal on April 25,2015, thousands of rescue teams from around the world were sent there to help search for survivors through the ruins. This can be a very tough task, since it can take many hours to safely dig survivors, often in need of immediate medical care, out of the ruins.
After spending 80 hours in the ruins of a building outside Kathmandu, Rishi Khanal was pulled out alive by a French search and rescue team. Khanal had been trying to get the attention of rescue workers for days. After the team found him, they spent 10 hours digging him out. The team broke the concrete (混凝土) that trapped Khanal within the building and pulled him up through a hole before carrying him away. Khanal suffered a broken leg.
“What made his survival so unusual was that after the first three days, there was little chance of finding survivors. It seemed he survived by willpower,” said Akhilesh Shrestha, a doctor who treated Khanal.
Meanwhile, rescues of a different kind were taking place on Mount Qomolangma.
On the border (边境) between Nepal and its northern neighbor China, more than 100 people were trying to climb Mount Qomolangma when the earthquake hit. 19 people were killed when an avalanche (雪崩) caused by the earthquake hit hundreds of tents (帐篷) at base camp. At least 61 people were injured.
The surviving climbers, who were stranded (滞留) in two different camps both above 21,000 feet, have all been rescued and returned to base camp. Small helicopters carried the climbers down the mountain in groups of four or five. Landing on Qomolangma long enough to pick up a passenger is dangerous even in good conditions, and helicopters could not touch down for more than 30 seconds to pick up passengers.
24. What does the underlined word “tough” in paragraph 1 probably mean?
A. Quick. B. Difficult. C. Important. D. Dangerous.
25. What did Akhilesh Shrestha say about Khanal’s survival?
A. It was thanks to Khanal’s work as a doctor. B. It depended on the rescue team’s efforts.
C. It was thought to be almost impossible. D. It encouraged other injured people.
26. What caused the death of the 19 climbers?
A. A powerful avalanche. B. Bad weather conditions.
C. Serious mountain sickness. D. A shortage of food and water.
27 Which of the following can best describe the work of rescuing climbers?
A. Risky and hopeless. B. Smooth and creative.
C. Meaningful but boring. D. Challenging but successful.
【答案】24. B 25. C 26. A 27. D
【解析】
【导语】本文为一篇新闻报道。文章描述了尼泊尔地震后的救援工作。
【24题详解】
词句猜测题。根据第一段“In the hours after the earthquake that hit Nepal on April 25,2015, thousands of rescue teams from around the world were sent there to help search for survivors through the ruins. This can be a very tough task, since it can take many hours to safely dig survivors, often in need of immediate medical care, out of the ruins. (2015年4月25日,尼泊尔发生地震,在地震发生后的几个小时内,来自世界各地的数千支救援队被派往那里,帮助在废墟中寻找幸存者。这可能是一项非常tough的任务,因为从废墟中安全地挖出幸存者可能需要数小时,而这些幸存者往往需要立即接受医疗护理。)”可知,本句中的This指代上文中的search for survivors through the ruins,根据本句中的since it can take many hours to safely dig survivors, often in need of immediate medical care, out of the ruins可知,救援队需要花很长时间才能把幸存者从废墟中安全救出来。由此可推断,tough在此应该表示“困难的,不容易的”,与Difficult同义,故选B项。
【25题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段中的“‘What made his survival so unusual was that after the first three days, there was little chance of finding survivors. It seemed he survived by willpower,’ said Akhilesh Shrestha, a doctor who treated Khanal. (‘他能活下来的不寻常之处在于,在头三天之后,几乎没有找到幸存者的机会。他似乎是靠意志力活了下来。’治疗卡纳尔的医生Akhilesh Shrestha说。)”可知,在Akhilesh Shrestha看来,卡纳尔能幸存下来的可能性微乎其微。故选C项。
【26题详解】
细节理解题。根据第五段中的“19 people were killed when an avalanche (雪崩) caused by the earthquake hit hundreds of tents (帐篷) at base camp. (地震引发的雪崩袭击了大本营的数百顶帐篷,造成19人死亡。)”可知,地震引发雪崩,许多基地大本营被埋,造成19人死亡。故选A项。
【27题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段“The surviving climbers, who were stranded (滞留) in two different camps both above 21,000 feet, have all been rescued and returned to base camp. Small helicopters carried the climbers down the mountain in groups of four or five. Landing on Qomolangma long enough to pick up a passenger is dangerous even in good conditions, and helicopters could not touch down for more than 30 seconds to pick up passengers. (幸存的登山者被困在21000英尺以上的两个不同的营地,他们都获救并返回了大本营。小型直升机载着四五人一组的登山者下山。即使在良好的条件下,在珠穆朗玛峰上降落足够长的时间来搭载乘客也是危险的,而且直升机降落的时间不能超过30秒来搭载乘客。)”可知,直升机每次只能运送四、五名受伤者,而且只能在珠穆朗玛峰上短暂停留,这使得救援工作变得困难。但是,最终所有的伤者都被成功营救。也就是说,救援工作虽然充满挑战,但也得到圆满完成。故选D项。
C
Marian Bechtel sits at West Palm Beach’s Bar Louie counter by herself, quietly reading her e-book as she waits for her salad. What is she reading? None of your business! Lunch is Bechtel’s “me” time. And like more Americans, she’s not alone.
A new report found 46 percent of meals are eaten alone in America. More than half(53 percent) have breakfast alone and nearly half(46 percent) have lunch by themselves. Only at dinnertime are we eating together anymore, 74 percent, according to statistics from the report.
“I prefer to go out and be out. Alone, but together, you know?” Bechtel said, looking up from her book. Bechtel, who works in downtown West Palm Beach, has lunch with coworkers sometimes, but like many of us, too often works through lunch at her desk. A lunchtime escape allows her to keep a boss from tapping her on the shoulder. She returns to work feeling energized. “Today, I just wanted some time to myself,” she said.
Just two seats over, Andrew Mazoleny, a local videographer, is finishing his lunch at the bar. He likes that he can sit and check his phone in peace or chat up the barkeeper with whom he’s on a first-name basis if he wants to have a little interaction(交流). “I reflect on how my day’s gone and think about the rest of the week,” he said. “It’s a chance for self-reflection. You return to work recharged and with a plan.”
That freedom to choose is one reason more people like to eat alone. There was a time when people may have felt awkward about asking for a table for one, but those days are over. Now, we have our smartphones to keep us company at the table. “It doesn’t feel as alone as it may have before all the advances in technology,” said Laurie Demeritt, whose company provided the statistics for the report.
28. What are the statistics in paragraph 2 about?
A. Food variety.
B. Eating habits.
C. Table manners.
D. Restaurant service.
29. Why does Bechtel prefer to go out for lunch?
A. To meet with her coworkers.
B. To catch up with her work.
C. To have some time on her own.
D. To collect data for her report.
30. What do we know about Mazoleny?
A. He makes videos for the bar.
B. He’s fond of the food at the bar.
C. He interviews customers at the bar.
D. He’s familiar with the barkeeper.
31. What is the text mainly about?
A. The trend of having meals alone.
B. The importance of self-reflection.
C. The stress from working overtime.
D. The advantage of wireless technology.
【答案】28. B 29. C 30. D 31. A
【解析】
【分析】本文是一篇说明文。据一份报告显示,越来越多的美国人喜欢独自用餐,并通过两个实例加以说明,文章总结了人们喜欢独自用餐的原因。
【28题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段可知,在美国,约有46%的人们独自用餐,53%的人们独自吃早餐,46%的人们独自吃午餐,只有74%的人们晚餐不是独自享用,故可知本段的数据是关于用餐习惯,故选B。
【29题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段A lunchtime escape allows her to keep a boss from tapping her on the shoulder. Today, I just wanted some time to myself.可知,Bechtel一个人吃午饭可以让她逃离老板的关注,给自己留一些自由时间,故选C。
【30题详解】
推理判断题。根据第四段he likes that he can sit and check his phone in peace or chat up the barkeeper with whom he’s on a first-name basis if he wants to have a little interaction.可知,Mazoleny喜欢这样的气氛,因为可以坐在那里安静查看手机信息,或者想聊天了,可以直呼吧台服务员名字和他聊天,故可知,他与服务员很熟悉,可以直呼对方名字,故选D。
【31题详解】
主旨大意题。本文通过一份调查结果显示美国人喜欢独自用餐的趋势,并总结了人们选择独自用餐的原因,故选A。
D
Many people have difficulty in getting up in the morning. This might be called laziness, but Dr. Kleitman has a new explanation. He has proved that everyone has a daily energy cycle.
During the hours when you work, you may say that you’re “hot”. That’s true. The time of day when you feel most energetic is when your cycle of body temperature is at its peak (顶峰). For some people the peak comes during the morning. For others it comes in the afternoon or evening. No one has discovered why this is so, but it leads to such familiar words as: “Get up, John! You’ll be late for work again!” The possible explanation for the trouble is that John is at his temperature-and-energy peak in the evening. Much family quarrelling ends when husbands and wives realize what these energy cycles mean, and which cycle each member of the family has.
You can’t change your energy cycle, but you can learn to make your life fit it better. Habit can help, Dr. Kleitman believes. Maybe you’re sleepy in the evening but feel you must stay up late anyway. If so, staying up later than you want to may counteract your cycle in some way. If our energy is low in the morning but you have an important job to do early in the day, rise before your usual hour. This won’t change your cycle, but you’ll get up steam and work better at your low point.
Get off to a slow start which saves your energy. Get up with a comfortable yawn and stretch. Sit on the edge of the bed for a minute before putting your feet on the floor. Avoid the troublesome search for clean clothes by laying them out the night before.
32. Dr. Kleitman explains that a person is difficult to get up in the morning probably because of
A. his own laziness
B. his own energy cycle
C. his own habit
D. his bad rest at night
33. According to the passage, people’s energy peak may come
A. in the morning
B. in the evening
C. in the afternoon
D. at different hours
34. What does the underlined word “it” in the third paragraph refer to?
A. The life.
B. The good habit.
C. The energy cycle.
D. The change.
35. If the finding is true, it’s best to
A. do your work at the energy peak
B. manage to control your temper
C. work at the bottom of energy cycle
D. manage to keep you clean all day
【答案】32. B 33. D 34. C 35. A
【解析】
【分析】本文是一篇说明文。本文主要讲述许多人早晨起不来,克莱特曼博士证明了每个人每天都有一个能量周期,而不同人的能量峰值达到最高的时间不同,我们不能改变自己的能量周期,但我们可以学习适应它。
【32题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段中的“but Dr. Kleitman has a new explanation. He has proved that everyone has a dally energy cycle(但克莱特曼博士有一个新的解释。他证明了每个人每天都有一个能量周期。)”可知,Dr. Kleitman认为一个人早上很难起床,可能是因为他有自己的能量周期。故选B。
【33题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段中的“For some people the peak... in the afternoon or evening(对一些人来说,高峰出现在早上。对其他人来说,它在下午或晚上到来。)”可推知,人们的能量顶峰可能会在不同的时间出现。故选D。
【34题详解】
词句猜测题。根据划线词句子“You can’t change your energy cycle, but you can learn to make your life fit it better.(你不能改变你的能量周期,但你可以学习让你的生活更适合它。)”的描述可知,本句此处代词it指代前面提到的能量周期。故选C。
【35题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段中的“During the hours when you... The time of day when you feel most energetic is when your cycle of body temperature is at its peak (顶峰)(在你工作的时间里,你可能会说你很“热”。这是真的。一天中你感到精力最充沛的时候是你的体温周期达到峰值的时候。)”可推知,如果这个发现是真的,那么最好在能量顶峰时期做你的工作。故选A。

【导语】这是一篇说明文。本文针对如何拥有美好的家庭生活提出建议:积极倾听家人、常表达爱与感激、举办积极的家庭会议以及尽可能共进餐食。
【36题详解】
根据上文“Do you want to have a good family life? For most people, the answer might be “Yes”.(你想要拥有美满的家庭生活吗?对于大多数人来说,答案或许是“是的”)”以及后文“Fortunately, here are some steps you can take to make your time with your family more enjoyable.(幸运的是,以下是一些你可以采取的措施,能让与家人的相处时光更加愉快)”可知,前一句说大多数人想拥有美好的家庭生活,后一句说“幸运的是,这里有一些步骤……”。E选项“但是,有些人可能会对如何改善家庭生活感到困惑”用However转折,指出有些人可能不知道“怎么做”,从而引出下文的建议,逻辑通顺。故选E。
【37题详解】
根据上文“Listen to your family members actively. When they are talking to you, you can make eye contact with them, nod your head, or say things like “I understand”. Put down your phone when you talk to someone.(要积极倾听家人的讲话。当他们与你交流时,你可以与他们进行眼神交流、点头,或者说些诸如“我明白了”之类的话。与人交谈时,请放下手机)”可知,本段主题是“积极倾听”。前一句提到放下手机,C选项“并且尽量不要查看短信或浏览社交媒体”进一步说明不要查看短信或社交媒体,是对前一句的补充,强调要专注于对话。故选C。
【38题详解】
根据后文“A few verbal (言语的) and nonverbal gestures of feelings go a long way. In addition to saying “I love you”, try to find small ways to show that you care for each other. Hugging your parents and saying “I just want you to know I appreciate you” makes a major impact.(一些言语和非言语上的情感表达能起到很大的作用。除了说“我爱你”之外,还试着寻找一些小的方式来表达你对彼此的关心。给父母一个拥抱,并说“我只是想让你知道我感激你”,这会产生很大的影响)”可知,这是本段的小标题。本段内容主要讲了通过言语(说“我爱你”、“我很感激你”)和非言语(拥抱)的方式来表达情感。B选项“经常表达爱和感激”最能概括本段内容。故选B。
【39题详解】
根据上文“Have positive weekly family meetings. A family meeting doesn’t have to be formal or focus on heavy topics. For example, talk about the past week’s ups and downs or any events that will happen in the next week. Try to keep the tone (语调) light.(每周举行一次积极的家庭会议。家庭会议不必过于正式,也不必聚焦于沉重的话题。例如,可以谈论过去一周的起起落落,或者讨论接下来一周将会发生的事情。尽量保持轻松的氛围)”可知,本段讲的是“积极的家庭会议”。前一句提到要保持轻松的语调,F选项“这样一来,就能鼓励大家自由交流,并且感到自在舒适”中的This指代轻松的氛围,说明这样做的好处是鼓励大家自由交流,符合语境。故选F。
【40题详解】
根据上文“Have meals together as often as possible. Parents work and kids have afterschool activities, so it’s difficult to have breakfast and dinner together every day.(尽可能经常一起用餐。父母工作,孩子放学后又有各种活动,所以很难每天都一起吃早餐和晚餐)”以及后文“Because family meals are the key to helping you stay involved in your family members’ lives.(因为家庭聚餐是帮助你融入家庭成员生活的重要途径)”可知,前一句说父母工作忙、孩子有活动,很难每天一起吃饭。G选项“但你可以尽量多创造一些一起用餐的机会”用But转折,提出建议:尽量创造机会一起吃饭。这也与下一句解释“为什么要一起吃饭”紧密衔接。故选G。

67. 阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
Saving the Galaxy
I pressed my face to the school-bus window as we passed the big movie screen. Galaxy Drive-In (银河汽车影院) one sign said. CLOSED said another.
I got off the bus at my stop and waved to Mom. I asked her about that drive-in down the street as we walked into the house. Mom told me that it had closed a couple years before.
But that night, I heard music coming through my window. When I looked out, I could see lights flashing on the drive-in’s screen. The thought of fear crossed my mind.
The next day, after breakfast Mom and I walked over to check things out. The place was like a big parking lot with weeds coming out through cracks. We were looking at an old movie poster when an old man got out of a car.
He introduced himself as Nick. “When my dad opened this place in 1957, we’d get 300 cars on a good night, but now I have to close it because I can’t afford a digital projector (放映机), which is very expensive.” Nick explained that all movie companies just provide digital movies instead of film (胶片) movies. Then Nick allowed us to look around and invited us to come by before dusk.
That night, Nick made an old movie come to life. As I sat next to Mom, I kept thinking about the excitement of seeing that big screen light up. Nick had looked so happy talking about the old days. If only he could get that projector.
注意:1. 续写词数应为100左右;2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
It was then that a big idea came to me.
______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
With the collected money, Nick bought a digital projector.
______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】参考范文一
It was then that a big idea came to me. What about crowdfunding online? I put a post without any delay. In the post, I talked about Nick’s dream and his present financial difficulty, especially the excitement and sweet memories that the drive-in once brought. Gradually, the post was followed by an increasing number of people. They donated generously and in less than a week enough money was raised.
With the collected money, Nick bought a digital projector. He was so glad that he couldn’t wait to play a movie. I’ve never seen Nick happier. “See what you started,” Nick said to me. “I can’t thank you enough. It is you and those warm-hearted supporters that have made Galaxy Drive-In begin to breathe again.” Today, the Galaxy is back in business and Nick has realized his dream: He gets 300 cars on a good night.
参考范文二
It was then that a big idea came to me. Having gathered together several schoolmates willing to help Nick, I told them my plan to raise money from local residents. Without delay, we designed our own brochures, telling Nick’s desire to save Galaxy Drive-In and his financial difficulty. We made it a routine to hand them out from door to door after school. Owing to the fact that most families donated money enthusiastically, we managed to raise enough money eventually.
With the collected money, Nick bought a digital projector. I never forgot Nick’s eyes shining like diamonds when he saw the projector. He gave me a warm hug and said “Thank you” repeatedly. In return for supporters’ kindness and generosity, Nick rewarded them with free passes, snacks, or reserved parking. Slowly, more and more people came to the drive-in and it came to life again.
【解析】
【分析】本文以事件为线索展开,讲述了作者在回家的路上偶然发现了一个已经关闭的汽车影院,而晚上却发现汽车影院的屏幕亮起,由此感到恐惧,于是第二天和母亲一起前去查看具体情况。在那里,作者和母亲见到了影院主人Nick,并了解了影院关闭的原因:买不起数字放映机。看到Nick谈及过去时的快乐神情以及想到自己看到影院放映时的激动,作者不禁想如果Nick可以买到数字放映机就好了。
【详解】1. 段落续写:
①由第一段首句内容“就在那时,我想到了一个好主意。”可知,第一段可描写作者利用网络呼吁大家一起通过募捐的方式帮助Nick。
②由第二段首句内容“用募集到的钱,Nick买了一台数字放映机。”可知,第二段可描Nick实现梦想后对作者和广大支持者的感激,以及作为回馈,重开汽车影院的情况。
2. 续写线索:传播Nick的信息——筹钱——买放映机——感激——重开影院
3. 词汇激活
行为类

In the hours after the earthquake that hit Nepal on April 25,2015, thousands of rescue teams from around the world were sent there to help search for survivors through the ruins. This can be a very tough task, since it can take many hours to safely dig survivors, often in need of immediate medical care, out of the ruins.
After spending 80 hours in the ruins of a building outside Kathmandu, Rishi Khanal was pulled out alive by a French search and rescue team. Khanal had been trying to get the attention of rescue workers for days. After the team found him, they spent 10 hours digging him out. The team broke the concrete (混凝土) that trapped Khanal within the building and pulled him up through a hole before carrying him away. Khanal suffered a broken leg.
“What made his survival so unusual was that after the first three days, there was little chance of finding survivors. It seemed he survived by willpower,” said Akhilesh Shrestha, a doctor who treated Khanal.
Meanwhile, rescues of a different kind were taking place on Mount Qomolangma.
On the border (边境) between Nepal and its northern neighbor China, more than 100 people were trying to climb Mount Qomolangma when the earthquake hit. 19 people were killed when an avalanche (雪崩) caused by the earthquake hit hundreds of tents (帐篷) at base camp. At least 61 people were injured.
The surviving climbers, who were stranded (滞留) in two different camps both above 21,000 feet, have all been rescued and returned to base camp. Small helicopters carried the climbers down the mountain in groups of four or five. Landing on Qomolangma long enough to pick up a passenger is dangerous even in good conditions, and helicopters could not touch down for more than 30 seconds to pick up passengers.
24. What does the underlined word “tough” in paragraph 1 probably mean?
A. Quick. B. Difficult. C. Important. D. Dangerous.
25. What did Akhilesh Shrestha say about Khanal’s survival?
A. It was thanks to Khanal’s work as a doctor. B. It depended on the rescue team’s efforts.
C. It was thought to be almost impossible. D. It encouraged other injured people.
26. What caused the death of the 19 climbers?
A. A powerful avalanche. B. Bad weather conditions.
C. Serious mountain sickness. D. A shortage of food and water.
27. Which of the following can best describe the work of rescuing climbers?
A. Risky and hopeless. B. Smooth and creative.
C. Meaningful but boring. D. Challenging but successful.
C
Marian Bechtel sits at West Palm Beach’s Bar Louie counter by herself, quietly reading her e-book as she waits for her salad. What is she reading? None of your business! Lunch is Bechtel’s “me” time. And like more Americans, she’s not alone.
A new report found 46 percent of meals are eaten alone in America. More than half(53 percent) have breakfast alone and nearly half(46 percent) have lunch by themselves. Only at dinnertime are we eating together anymore, 74 percent, according to statistics from the report.
“I prefer to go out and be out. Alone, but together, you know?” Bechtel said, looking up from her book. Bechtel, who works in downtown West Palm Beach, has lunch with coworkers sometimes, but like many of us, too often works through lunch at her desk. A lunchtime escape allows her to keep a boss from tapping her on the shoulder. She returns to work feeling energized. “Today, I just wanted some time to myself,” she said.
Just two seats over, Andrew Mazoleny, a local videographer, is finishing his lunch at the bar. He likes that he can sit and check his phone in peace or chat up the barkeeper with whom he’s on a first-name basis if he wants to have a little interaction(交流). “I reflect on how my day’s gone and think about the rest of the week,” he said. “It’s a chance for self-reflection. You return to work recharged and with a plan.”
That freedom to choose is one reason more people like to eat alone. There was a time when people may have felt awkward about asking for a table for one but those days are over. Now, we have our smartphones to keep us company at the table. “It doesn’t feel as alone as it may have before all the advances in technology,” said Laurie Demeritt, whose company provided the statistics for the report.
28. What are the statistics in paragraph 2 about?
A Food variety.
B. Eating habits.
C. Table manners.
D. Restaurant service.
29. Why does Bechtel prefer to go out for lunch?
A. To meet with her coworkers.
B. To catch up with her work.
C. To have some time on her own.
D. To collect data for her report.
30. What do we know about Mazoleny?
A. He makes videos for the bar.
B. He’s fond of the food at the bar.
C. He interviews customers at the bar.
D. He’s familiar with the barkeeper.
31. What is the text mainly about?
A. The trend of having meals alone.
B. The importance of self-reflection.
C. The stress from working overtime.
D. The advantage of wireless technology.
D
Many people have difficulty in getting up in the morning. This might be called laziness, but Dr. Kleitman has a new explanation. He has proved that everyone has a daily energy cycle.
During the hours when you work, you may say that you’re “hot”. That’s true. The time of day when you feel most energetic is when your cycle of body temperature is at its peak (顶峰). For some people the peak comes during the morning. For others it comes in the afternoon or evening. No one has discovered why this is so, but it leads to such familiar words as: “Get up, John! You’ll be late for work again!” The possible explanation for the trouble is that John is at his temperature-and-energy peak in the evening. Much family quarrelling ends when husbands and wives realize what these energy cycles mean, and which cycle each member of the family has.
You can’t change your energy cycle, but you can learn to make your life fit it better. Habit can help, Dr. Kleitman believes. Maybe you’re sleepy in the evening but feel you must stay up late anyway. If so, staying up later than you want to may counteract your cycle in some way. If our energy is low in the morning but you have an important job to do early in the day, rise before your usual hour. This won’t change your cycle, but you’ll get up steam and work better at your low point.
Get off to a slow start which saves your energy. Get up with a comfortable yawn and stretch. Sit on the edge of the bed for a minute before putting your feet on the floor. Avoid the troublesome search for clean clothes by laying them out the night before.
32. Dr. Kleitman explains that a person is difficult to get up in the morning probably because of
A. his own laziness
B his own energy cycle
C. his own habit
D. his bad rest at night
33. According to the passage, people’s energy peak may come
A. in the morning
B in the evening
C. in the afternoon
D. at different hours
34. What does the underlined word “it” in the third paragraph refer to?
A. The life.
B. The good habit.
C. The energy cycle.
D. The change.
35. If the finding is true, it’s best to
A. do your work at the energy peak
B. manage to control your temper
C. work at the bottom of energy cycle
D. manage to keep you clean all day

Saving the Galaxy
I pressed my face to the school-bus window as we passed the big movie screen. Galaxy Drive-In (银河汽车影院) one sign said. CLOSED said another.
I got off the bus at my stop and waved to Mom. I asked her about that drive-in down the street as we walked into the house. Mom told me that it had closed a couple years before.
But that night, I heard music coming through my window. When I looked out, I could see lights flashing on the drive-in’s screen. The thought of fear crossed my mind.
The next day, after breakfast Mom and I walked over to check things out. The place was like a big parking lot with weeds coming out through cracks. We were looking at an old movie poster when an old man got out of a car.
He introduced himself as Nick. “When my dad opened this place in 1957, we’d get 300 cars on a good night, but now I have to close it because I can’t afford a digital projector (放映机), which is very expensive.” Nick explained that all movie companies just provide digital movies instead of film (胶片) movies. Then Nick allowed us to look around and invited us to come by before dusk.
That night, Nick made an old movie come to life. As I sat next to Mom, I kept thinking about the excitement of seeing that big screen light up. Nick had looked so happy talking about the old days. If only he could get that projector.
注意:1. 续写词数应为100左右;2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
It was then that a big idea came to me
______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
With the collected money, Nick bought a digital projector.
