A
Our flat was on the fifth floor but you could still hear the roar of the ocean and see the stars at night. I used to take long walks along the water. The food in town was delicious and the people were very friendly. The area was very quiet and peaceful, and fairly deserted.
The last evening of our vacation, however, we all heard strange footsteps following closely behind us as we were walking up to our flat in the holiday centre. We turned around and noticed a fairly young man moving very rapidly across the beach and getting closer to us. He was tall and wore a baseball cap. We couldn’t see his face and he was approaching us very rapidly. The man’s actions made my dad very nervous. Dad warned us that we’d better try to make it to our flat as quickly as possible. I didn’t like my dad’s voice; I could hear fear in it. It was late and we were all alone. We didn’t have any cell phones on us. I never saw Dad as worried as he was then and I knew that something was terribly wrong. The sense of fear started to overwhelm Mom and me. We had had such a good time in town. Now, the night was rapidly turning into a dangerous situation.
We could hear the man’s footsteps getting closer. Dad’s face was almost pale. The so-called intruder (侵入者) had moved nearer and nearer when all of a sudden, the nearby vending(自动贩卖) machine started going crazy and spitting out cans of soda! The noise actually scared the intruder and he ran out of sight. My parents were shaking, but we all turned around to see who had put money into the vending machine downstairs, and actually saved us, but no one was around at all. Not a soul.
It’s one vacation I will never forget.
21.Where did the writer spend her vacation?
A. Near a river. B. In a city. C. In a mountain. D. At the seaside.
22.What does the underlined word “overwhelm” in Paragraph 2 mean?
A. move. B. impress. C. control. D. excite.
23.What helped them get rid of the trouble?
A. Their quick action. B. Other people’s kind help.
C. The noise from the vending machine. D. The young man’s warning.
B

Air pollution, such as haze, has become a serious problem around the world. Besides wearing a mask, what else can we do to protect ourselves from the dirty air?
Scientists have developed a new inhaler (吸入剂) that can reduce the effect air pollution has on people. It could help millions of people who are suffering from air pollution, the Guardian reports.
This inhaler is developed by German company Bitop and contains a molecule (分子) named Ectoine. The molecule creates a layer (涂层) that protects lungs from polluted air. It’s reported that the inhaler will be affordable to most people when it comes to the market.
Air pollution kills more than three million people a year worldwide and leads to health problems like lung and heart disease and strokes, according to a 2016 research project in the journal Nature. It is also linked to brain disease, mental illness and diabetes (糖尿病).
Andreas Bilstein at Bitop believed that the inhaler could be useful around the world, because air pollution is not just a European problem: “Especially in Asia - China in particular - the demand for such a product is even higher.”
Many Chinese cities have been suffering from haze. According to World Health Organization, two of the 10 most polluted cities in the world in 2015 were in China. About 800,000 deaths that are linked to air pollution take place in the country every year.
However, such inhalers should never be an excuse for not trying to stop air pollution, said Professor Jean Krutmann at the Leibniz Research Institute for Environmental Medicine. “The best thing is that we have clean air and we don’t need any prophylactic (预防性的) treatment,” he said.
28. What is the new inhaler?
A. It can help protect the environment.
B. It can help us reduce the harm of air pollution.
C. It can solve the air pollution problem.
D. It can make the dirty air clean.
29. From the third paragraph, we learn that ______.
A. the inhaler comes from a US company
B. the inhaler is named Ectoine
C. a molecule in the inhaler forms a layer on lungs
D. the inhaler’s price will not be too high for most people
30. Which of the following is NOT true?
A. Air pollution kills millions of people a year worldwide.
B. Air pollution can cause mental illness.
C. There are no air pollution problems in Europe.
D. Air pollution is a serious problem in China.
31. Which is Professor Jean Krutmann’s opinion?
A. Such inhalers mean much to people.
B. We should take action to control air pollution.
C. We can depend on inhalers to solve air pollution problems.
D. We’d better produce more medicines to treat lung diseases.
D
Some people surveyed tasted the sweet, salty, and crunchy together with other tastes of food as they listen to different noises. It shows that louder noises reduced the reported sweetness or saltiness of food while increasing the measure of crunchiness(松脆).
It may go some way to explain why airline food is widely complained about by both the workers and passengers. Andy Woods, a researcher, said, “It’s a general opinion that plane foods aren’t fantastic, but I’m sure airlines do their best, so we wondered if there were other reasons. One thought was that perhaps the background noise may have an effect. NASA gives their space explorers very strong-tasting foods, because for some reason, they can’t taste food that strongly—again, it may have something to do with the background noise.”
In a study, 48 people were fed sweet foods or salty ones, while listening to nothing or noise through earphones. Meanwhile they rated(划分等级) the foods. In noisier settings, foods were rated less salty or sweet than they were when it was silent, but were rated crunchier. “The evidence shows that if the background noise is loud, your attention might be drawn to that, away from the food.” Dr. Woods said.
“We are still at an early stage of progressing and this is a rather small study to really draw definitive(最完整可靠的) conclusions from,” Dr Woods said, “but they suggest that restaurants could well adapt their choice of food for a given environment.”
Also in the group’s findings there is the suggestion that the overall satisfaction with the food is also related to the degree to which people like what they are hearing.
32. How does the food taste when it is eaten in a noisy environment?
A. Less salty but crunchier. B. Sweeter and saltier.
C. Sweeter but less crunchy. D. Less sweet and crunchy.
33. Why does NASA give their space explorers very strong-tasting foods?
A. Foods become less tasty in space.
B. The explorers lose their sense of taste in space.
C. Loud noises in space may weaken the explorers’ sense of taste.
D. The explorers need tastier foods to keep energetic in space.
34. We can infer from what Dr. Woods said in the 4th paragraph that ___________.
A. the environment influences the food a restaurant sells
B. the researchers have made an effective conclusion
C. music will weaken people’s sense of taste while eating
D. listening to nothing while eating is the best choice
35. What would be the best title for the text?
A. The best dinner environment
B. How to change plane foods
C. Listening to music while eating
D. Background noise affects the taste of foods

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。
If happy is what you want to be, you must take responsibility and stop expecting things or people to make you happy. You are the source of your own happiness, so stop looking elsewhere. 36 Here are a few ways for you to follow:
Be thankful to others. 37 It is too easy to take those around us for granted. Show them the same consideration you would like shown to you.
38 This goes beyond(超过) politeness; it is a form of giving. Treat everyone you meet as if they have a big sign on their chest saying “make me feel important.” If you do this you will discover a hidden source of joy.
Perform acts of kindness. Don’t wait to be asked. 39 It doesn’t need to be a big thing, hold the door for a stranger, or smile at anyone you make eye contact with. Look for chances to make others feel good.
Make a decision to be happy. This is the most important step on the road to a happy life. 40 You are the key to your own happiness, so go ahead, unlock it once and for all.
A. Respect other people.
B. Be polite to other people.
C. Instead of looking for happiness, start creating it.
D. You can change your feelings by acting the way you want to feel.

One day, a student asked him, “My dear teacher, didn’t you say you yourself have many more questions about things than we do? 64 I think we students have far more than you.”
With a smile on his face, the teacher drew two circles, one as large as a big cake, the other smaller. Then he said, “Of course, I have learned much more. But it is wrong 65 (think) a teacher has fewer questions than his students. Now, look at these two circles. The inside of the 66 (big) one is my knowledge of things, and the inside of the smaller one is 67 (your). Out of the circles is what is still unknown to us. Since mine is larger, I have to use the longer line to draw the bigger circle. That means I have more opportunities to face something 68 (know).

Li Hua and Wang Hai are students of Senior One. They all work hard but have different learning methods. Li Hua listens to her teachers attentive and tries to catch everything the teachers say. She spends more time doing her homework. It is certain what she can go to bed earlier and always keeps energetic in the day.
However, Wang Hai had a different way of learning. He likes to stay up late at the night, so he often feels sleepy in class. As the result, he misses lots of key point and it usually takes him more time to finish his homework, that makes it difficult for him to concentrate what he is doing. I prefer Li Hua's learning method.
