The low- alcohol drink, or Chu- Hi, is a watereddown mixture of the Shouchu spirit plus flavoring. This isn't the first time Coca-Cola has experienced with flavors and tastes. Not all flavors are successful, but the unique flavors deserve a round of applause.Here are five other unusual coca cola products that were released. Beverly Introduced in 1969, Beverly was an Italian aperitif, designed to be consumed before meals and believed to aid digestion. Competitors like Campari and San Pellegrino led to its discontinuation in 2009. OK Soda This product was started to capture the Generation X market in 1993. OK Soda cans had grim-looking illustrations in its ad campaign that responded to the idea that Generation X was cynical and disillusioned. Its slogan was "Things are going to be OK" and it even had its own manifesto(宣言). It was discontinued in 1995. Coca - Cola Blak Coffee in soda? Coca-Cola had developed this r ecipe for two years and finally released the carbonated coffee drink in 2006. It hoped it would tap into the premium coffee markets, but just one year later Blak was discontinued. New Coke In 1985, the 99- year- old company decided it was scrapping its classic Coca- Cola recipe for a sweeter version to compete with Pepsi. In blind taste tests, people generally preferred the new recipe compared to the old. But three months after making the switch, the company announced the return of the classic Coca-Cola. Coca-Cola Plus After more than a decade of research and development, Coca-Cola started its first ever soda approved by the FOSHU food standard. The no-calorie and no-sugar drink contains fiber that will help reduce fat absorption and help moderate blood sugar levels. 21.Which of the following can help make fat absorption less? A. OK Soda. B. Coca-Cola Blak. C. Coca-Cola Plus. D. New Coke. 22.Which of the following lasted longest? A. Beverly. B. OK Soda. C. Coca-Cola Blak. D. New Coke. 23.What can we infer from the text? A. It's the first time Coca-Cola has experienced with flavors. B. Coca-Cola Plus is a no-calorie and no-sugar drink. C. All flavors by Coca-Cola Company are not successful. D. There are many succ. essful'products in Coca-Cola Company. B Last April, on a Sunday, we took one of our “nowhere” drives. My husband was quietly driving along a back road. I was occupied in the front passenger seat watching the scenery. I noticed out of the corner of my eye that my husband was struggling to look out of my window. This frightened me, since his eyes should be on the road in front of him. I asked him what he was looking at out of the windows, and he quietly replied, “Nothing.” After a few minutes, I looked over at my husband and noticed a tear running down his cheek. I asked him what was wrong. This time he told me, “I was just thinking about Pop and a story he had once told.” It had something to do with Pop, his friend from childhood, and I wanted to know the story, so I asked him to share it with me. He said, “When I was about 8 years old, Pop and I were out fishing and he told me that the pine trees know when it is Easter.” I had no idea what he meant by that, so I pressed him for more information.He continued on... “The pine trees start their new growth in the weeks before Easter because spring is drawing near. If you look at the tops of the pine trees, you will see the yellow shoots(嫩芽). As the days get closer to Easter Sunday, the tallest shoot will branch off and form a cross. By the time Easter Sunday comes around, you will see that most of the pine trees will have small yellow crosses on all of the tallest shoots.” I turned to look out of the window and I couldn’t believe my eyes. It was a week before Easter, and you could see all of the trees with the tall yellow shoots stretching to the sky. The tallest ones shone in the sunlight like rows of tiny golden crosses. May you find your Easter season filled with beautiful golden crosses! 24.How did the author feel when she found her husband looking outward while driving? A. Curious. B. Calm. C. Afraid. D. Excited. 25.Why did the husband cry? A. He saw something strange out of the window. B. He was scolded by his wife for driving carelessly. C. He was too frightened to drive the car on the road. D. He thought of an old friend and was moved by his story. 26.What can we infer from the text? A. The author knew Pop’s story very well. B. Pop was traveling together with the couple. C. The author was amazed at the appearance of pine trees. D. Pine trees have something to do with the origin of Easter. 27.What does the author intend to tell us? A. We should be careful while driving. B. Pine trees are more beautiful before Easter. C. Easter should be decorated with golden crosses. D. Easter promises hope with the coming of spring. C The Super Bowl is the annual championship game of the National Football League (NFL).The game is the culmination（高潮）to a season that begins in the late summer of the previous calendar year. Normally, Roman numerals are used to identify each game, rather than the year in which it is held. For example, Super Bowl I was played on January 15, 1967, following the 1966 regular season. The single exception to this rule is Super Bowl 50, which was played on February 7, 2016, following the 2015 regular season. The next game, Super Bowl LII, scheduled for February 4, 2018, will follow the 2017 regular season. The game was created as part of a merger( 合 并 ) agreement between the NFL and its then rival league, the American Football League (AFL). Currently, the Pittsburgh Steelers have the most Super Bowl victories, with six. The New England Patriots have the most Super Bowl appearances, with nine. The day (usually the first Sunday in February) on which the Super Bowl is played, now considered as an unofficial American national holiday, is called "Super Bowl Sunday". It is the second-largest day for U.S. food consumption, after Thanksgiving Day. In addition, the seven most-watched broadcasts in U.S. television history are Super Bowls. In 2015, Super Bowl XLIX attracted an audience of 114.4 million. Because of the high viewership, commercial airtime during the Super Bowl broadcast is the most expensive of the year, leading to companies regularly developing their most expensive advertisements for this broadcast. As a result, watching and discussing the broadcast's commercials has become a significant aspect of the event. In addition, popular singers and musicians including Michael Jackson, Madonna, Prince, Beyonce, Paul McCartney, The Rolling Stones, The Who, Whitney Houston, and Lady Gaga have performed during the event's pregame and halftime ceremonies. 28.According to the text, in the Super Bowl ________. A. the New England Patriots have won nine times B. the Pittsburgh Steelers have won six titles C. Arabic numerals are used to refer to each game D. winners of the last season play against each other 29.On Super Bowl Sunday, American people usually ________. A. buy expensive Super Bowl tickets B. consume the most food of the year C. avoid the Super Bowl commercials D. enjoy performances by famous artists 30.In 2015, the ________ Super Bowl was held. A. 46th B. 49th C. 51st D. 55th 31.We can know from the text that the Super Bowl ________. A. is a public holiday in the United States B. is the annual championship game of AFL C. launches a new season of the National Football League every year D. has frequently been the most watched American television broadcast of the year D Cold weather during winter months may keep many people from leaving home and running in the open air. However, a new study shows that the drop in temperature is a good reason to run. In fact, researchers say, running in cold weather helps improve one’s performance. Many people say running in the winter can be difficult. Two reasons are the low temperatures and bitter winds. Yet many runners might find it easier than running in hot weather. That could be because lower temperatures reduce stress on the body. When you run in cold weather, your heart rate and the body’s dehydration (脱水) levels are lower than in warmer conditions. The body needs less water on a cold day than in warm weather. This information comes from sports scientists at St. Mary’s University in London. John Brewer is a professor of applied sport science at St. Mary’s. For this study, he and other researchers put a group of people into a room they called an “environmental chamber.” The researchers then recreated summer and winter weather conditions in the room. The test subjects were asked to run 10,000 meters under both conditions. Brewer says he and his team recorded biological measurements of the runners. “We’ve got a group of subjects into the environmental chamber, we’ve changed the conditions to replicate the summer or winter and we’ve got them to run a 10km under both of those conditions and taken various measurements on each runner while they’ve been completing their 10km.” Brewer says every movement runners make produces heat. He explains that one way in which we lose heat is by sweating. The body loses heat through droplets of sweat. He says the body also loses heat by transporting the blood to the surface of the skin. 32.What can we know about running in winter?A. It increases pressure of the body. B. It improves the function of body. C. It makes your heart rate higher. D. It needs more water than in summer. 33.What can we know about the research according to the text? A. Researchers interviewed the subjects B. Subjects were asked to run in winter and summer. C. Subjects built the “environmental chamber”. D. Biological measurements of the runners were recorded. 34.Which of the following can replace the underlined word “replicate” in Paragraph 7? A. Combine. B. Remember. C. Copy. D. Decorate. 35.What’s the best title for the passage? A. Environmental Chamber B. The Way of Losing Heat C. Running in Cold Weather Improves Performance D. Biological Measurements of the Runners 第二节 (共 5 小题；每小题 2 分，满分 10 分) 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 The world itself is becoming much smaller by using modem traffic and modem communication means.

As for school activities, students mainly hold two views. Many students are very enthusiastic about school activities because they think that learning from textbooks is not their only task and they should take every chance to get some practical knowledge. Besides, after long hours’ study, they can relax themselves by practicing in school activities. However , a large group of students take little interest in them and spend most of their time on study. They believe that they should make full use of time to study and that school activities have nothing to do with their further development. As far as I am concerned, I prefer the first view. On the other hand,we can learn a great deal from other students we meet in activities. Furthermore, modern society requires many qualities of young students, so “book worms” can’t keep up with the times.
