And do not overlook winter's leafy greens.Experts suggest including more chicory(菊苣)into your winter diet.You can also try different kales(羽衣甘蓝)and the leafy tops of root vegetables,like radish greens, If fresh choices are limited,canned and frozen fruits and vegetables still have a lot of nutritional value.Just do not overcook them.Also make sure these foods do not have lots of added salt or fat. Dried fruits are good for winter meals.Nuts can also be tasty,nutritious and filling. Liquid meals Soups,stews and porridge have a long history.They often are made using just one cooking pot which can ease the whole process.They all can be frozen easily for a later meal.And you can put just about anything in them.Nutrients from the ingredients stay in the cooking liquid. These meals are also a way to try out different beans and legumes called a“nutritional powerhouse”. Cook for others Winter can be isolating for some people.So,join friends and family for meals even when it is not a holiday.Eating foods that are “in season”can help people connect with the sources of their food and with their environment. 21.What do citrus fruits include? A.Limes. B.Beets. C.Radishes. D.Parsnips. 22.What do we know about the recommended wintertime liquid meals? A.They are not easy to freeze. B.They are still nutritional. C.They mainly feature green leafy vegetables. D.They are fresh,cheap and traditional. 23.What is the author's purpose in writing the text? A.To introduce the types of American food. B.To help people store various foods in winter. C.To show suggestions from nutrition experts on winter diet. D.To change the eating habits of resisting severe cold. B In the 1986 America's Cup sailing race,a tough competition unfolded between the United States team and the Australian team. The Australian team had won the race multiple times before.Determined to take back the trophy(奖杯),the US team gathered plentiful capital and top sailors.They even designed a high-speed sailboat,making their goal of winning clear.When the race started,the US team took the lead right away.By the time they were just four nautical miles(海里)from the finish line,they were already three nautical miles ahead of the Australian team.It seemed victory was within their grasp. However,the wind direction at sea suddenly changed at this critical moment.The US team was now faced with a tough choice:should they adjust(调整)the sail angle?You see,there are two types of wind at sea—gusts and cyclones.If it was a gust,adjusting the sail would be the right move.But if it was a cyclone,any adjustment would be useless,as cyclones change direction constantly.Relying on his years of experience,the US team's old captain decided it was a gust and ordered the crew to adjust the sail. Sadly,his judgment was wrong.It turned out to be a gust-like cyclone.The US sailboat spun(转动)around in place,wasting valuable time.Meanwhile,the Australian team chose not to adjust their sail and quickly caught up.In the end,the Australian team overtook the US team when they were just one nautical mile from the finish line and won the championship. After the race,most media blamed the old captain for the US loss,But a game theory expert had a different view.He said that in an uncertain situation,the US team shouldn't have tried to judge the wind direction accurately.Instead,they should have watched the Australian team's actions.If the Australians didn't adjust their sail,the US team shouldn't have either.That way,they could have kept their lead. 24.Why might the US team take the lead at the start? A.Australian team made a slow start. B.The wind helped the US team a lot. C.They practiced sailing every single day. D.They had good funds,sailors and a good boat. 25.What can we know about the Australian team? A.They wanted the US to win. B.They made no sail adjustment. C.They did not trust their captain. D.They knew the wind would change again. 26.What advice did the expert give? A.Trust the captain. B.Better later than never. C.Copy the competitor's move. D.It is never too old to learn and create. 27.What would be the most suitable title for the text? A.A Race Lost at the Last Mile B.The Unpredictable Sea Winds C.The Role of Experience in Sailing D.America's Cup Sailing Race C A 14-year study of over 90,000 adults presented at the European Society of Cardiology Congress has revealed that“catch-up sleep”on weekends can reduce heart disease risk by up to 20%. The research,led by cardiovascular(心血管的)scientists from China's Fuwai Hospital,tracked participants through the UK Biobank and found that those who got the most compensatory(补偿的)weekend sleep were 19%less likely to develop heart disease compared to those who maintained consistent but insufficient sleep schedules. The protective effect was most dramatic for the 20%of participants classified as sleep-deprived—those getting fewer than seven hours nightly during weekdays. A separate NHANES study of 3,400 Americans confirmed these findings,showing that weekend catch-up sleep duration of more than 2 hours was strongly associated with reduced cardiovascular disease prevalence when weekday sleep fell below six hours.But here's what makes this discovery revolutionary:it directly challenges decades of sleep medicine orthodoxy(正统观念). While experts have long emphasized maintaining regular sleep to maintain circadian rhythms(昼夜节律),this research suggests that for individuals suffering from long-term lack of sleep,sleeping in on weekends may be more protective than maintaining a regular but insufficient sleep pattern, The study found specific reductions in stroke(中风)and coronary heart disease among weekend sleepers.Dr.Jim Liu from Ohio State University's Wexner Medical Center explains the mechanism:"Insufficient sleep can increase the risk of developing hypertension,obesity, arrhythmias, and coronary artery disease,On the other hand,making up for lost sleep can reduce such risks.” The American Heart Association now considers sleep one of the core components of heart health,ranking it alongside diet,exercise,and smoking cessation. With one in three American adults reporting insufficient daily sleep,this research suggests that weekend recovery sleep might serve as a crucial cardiac safety net for millions of people who are always tired. 28.Which group can benefit most from weekend catch-up sleep? A.People who sleep 8 hours every night. B.People who often feel sleepy on weekdays. C.People who maintain a regular sleep schedule. D.People who sleep less than 7 hours on weekdays. 29.What does the underlined word“prevalence”in Paragraph 4 mean? A.Treatment. B.Occurrence. C.Cure. D.Prevention. 30.What is Jim Liu's attitude towards the research results? A.Unconcerned. B.Negative. C.Favourable. D.Doubtful. 31.What is the main idea of the text? A.Weekend catch-up sleep can reduce heart disease risk. B.Sleep medicine experts should change their advice. C.Long-term lack of sleep causes many diseases. D.Americans need to sleep more on weekends. D The model called Agua Prope,meaning clean water,was presented by a team of middle school students from Houston.At the future City Nationals in Washington DC,the students' goal was to build a city with a clean and reliable water supply.Many members on the Houston team have roots in Karachi,Pakistan largest and most contaminated(被污染的)city,where water shortages and access to clean water are a constant problem. Karachi is quite underdeveloped now.Unlike in America,a lot of people are on the streets—they don't have water to drink or they're drinking contaminated water.It's very hard to even like take showers over the day.The government in Karachi says the city supplies only half of the water it needs daily.The consequences of Pakistan's water problems are heartbreaking.UNICEF reports every year 53 thousand children die of diarrhea(腹泻)caused by drinking contaminated water. Students on the Houston team say their model includes a stable system,which monitors supply and demand,storage,filtration(过滤),and diversion of conventional as well as floodwaters across the Jacksonville landscape. The project Agua Prope is located in Jacksonville Florida,where the main problems are storm surges,hurricanes and floods.Actually a lot of problems caused by water shortage and pollution are going on internationally right now,especially in coastal cities.There,limited access to clean drinking water or drinking contaminated water may lead to developmental disorders and cancer-related issues. Agua Prope model won the People's Choice Award based on voting by the general public,and the best futuristic city award.This model calls for technology so advanced that it will be decades before it can be put into effect.But the students say they hope one day within the next50 years their vision of a clean water city will become a reality. 32.Why did the students choose to focus on water problems? A.Many of them come from a city with serious water shortages. B.They wanted to win an international science competition. C.Their teacher forced them to choose this topic. D.Water problems are rare in their hometown. 33.What does Paragraph 2 mainly talk about? A.The history of water supply in Pakistan. B.The solutions to water problems in Karachi. C.The effects of contaminated water in Karachi. D.The seriousness of water problems in Karachi and Pakistan, 34.What problems does Jacksonville face? A.Earthquakes and droughts, B.Volcanic eruptions and storms. C.Floods and hurricanes. D.Sandstorms and water shortages. 35.What can we infer about the Agua Prope model from the last paragraph? A.It will be built in Jacksonville first. B.It is already being used in some cities. C.It is too expensive for any city to afford. D.It is not yet possible to build with current technology. 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人空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Can you think of a day without music?We can hear music everywhere:in the streets and at home,over the radio and on TV,in the shops and in the parks. 36 They listen to music,they dance to music,and they learn to play musical instruments. Music isn't only a combination of pleasant sounds.It is an art which reflects life.There are a lot of different kinds of music.Some of them appeared long ago,and some are modern.Folk music appeared long ago,but it is still alive.Folk songs are very pleasant to listen to. 37 Rap is a modern musical style where the singer speaks or shouts the words in time to music with a steady beat. Great Britain has produced more popular music stars than any other country.British groups often set new trends in music. 38 Many of the new bands have been able to use changes in technology to develop their music such as computerised drum machines,synthesisers and other electronic instruments. 39 So people's musical interests range from pop and rock music to classical music and opera.My favourite style of music is pop music,because it is full of energy.When I listen to pop music it makes me remember happy times and forget the problems of everyday life.I also enjoy listening to classical music.

I had to take the bus to school,which was not something I'd had to do before.Dora and I took the bus together and we talked the whole way there about how we thought the first day would turn out.When we entered the school,everyone was hugging and saying hi and I was awkwardly standing there and holding onto my friend's bag through the crowd of people.I hated crowds so I stayed with Dora who was probably annoyed by me holding onto her the whole morning.I started to calm down when we all were waiting for the first bell to ring.When Dora and I had to separate,I didn't want to go to class.When I did,I simply stood at the door because I had no idea where to sit.I sat in the way back.My teacher seemed friendly so I was a little calm.My desk mate Jane barely talked,but when she did,she seemed really nice. Although a lot of students might not laugh when I make a strange joke,they weren't rude.My teachers told us about the high expectations for their school and I was kind of worried because I came from a school where.I didn't have too much work or high expectations.After maths class,we need to go to another classroom to have history class. 注意： 1.续写词数应为150个左右； 2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 I was a little scared because I had no idea where to go._________________________ _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ During lunch,Jane and I joined Dora at a table.______________________________ _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
