How many times have you come back and felt terribly tired, feeling like your head
is going to explode? Sounds familiar, right? Well, there are several ways to reduce
the frequency of headaches, and those are: eating balanced diet through the day, making
sure your body is well hydrated (保持身体水分);getting some exercise to remove the
negative energy, like helping yourself with a short massage (按摩）on your head.
However, preparing an easy recipe will instantly put a smile on your face after your
workday.
You will need these simple ingredients (配料)to prepare the magical drink which
will stop your headache: Lemon juice; 2 teaspoons of salt (preferably high quality
salt); 1 cup of water.
Directions:
Squeeze 2 lemons. Pour the lemon juice into a cup and add 2 teaspoons of salt.
Mix the two ingredients. Add a cup of water to the content. Drink the mixture quickly.
How will this drink work and what are the benefits of its ingredients?
Salt:Here is what salt does for your body:
—regulates your blood sugar.
—balances the sugar levels;
—benefits nerve cells for communication and information processing;
—obtains acidity from your body’s cells, especially brain cells;
—works as a strong anti-stress element for the body;
—adds energy in your body’s cells.
Lemon Juice: This excellent juice, full of vitamin C and anti-poisons, will
release all poisonous substances from your body and give you a sense of lightness.
Here’s how the lemon will help you ease your headache and maintain well-being to your
whole body:
—balances the PH levels in your body;
—protects your immune system;
—nourishes your brain and nerve cells;
—reduces inflammation (炎症)in your whole body (the headache is a type of
inflammation, so the lemon juice fights against it).
Water：
Water is important for hydrating your whole body, including your head. Many of
your daily headaches may be caused by dehydratation (脱水)，so keep in mind that you
should drink plenty of water throughout the day.

Raised by a single mother in Hartford, Fred Wright struggled with behavioral
problems and was forced to move from one school to another. He even reached a point
where he felt like he had nothing to live for.
“I was walking around with a lot on my shoulders,” he said.“I couldn’t handle
it. I didn’t care about life anymore.” But all that started to change when Wright
met Patricia Kelly.
“I was seven when I met Mrs. Kelly.I wasn’t used to strictness. I wasn’t used to
hearing the word ’ no ’,”said Wright, now 17.
Kelly, a former soldier and an equestrian (骑手), took Wright under her wing and
helped him find hope in an unlikely place — on a horse.
“Wright was like a round peg that everybody kept trying to squeeze into a square
hole，” Kelly said.“He was hurting. He needed a place where he could express
himself. The riding field became that place for him.”
For the last 30 years, Kelly has helped children stay on the right track through
her nonprofit, Ebony Horsewomen. The program offers horseback riding lessons and
teaches animal science to more than 300 young people a year. By exposing those children
to horsemanship, Kelly aims to give them an alternative to the streets and an
opportunity to turn their lives around.
“We use horses as a hook to create pride, esteem and healing,” said Kelly. “They
learn that they have ability. They just have to unlock it.”
“When you teach a child to ride a horse, they learn they are the center of their
environment,” said Kelly. “Once they make that connection, they can change what happens in school, at home and in the community.”
24. Why did Fred Wright have to move from one school to another?
A. Because his mother couldn’t afford the fees.
B. Because his parents got divorced.
C. Because he behaved badly at school.
D. Because he didn’t set a life goal.
25. How did Patricia Kelly help Fred Wright?
A. She provided him with a home. B. She exposed him to the riding
field.
C. She encouraged him to learn science. D. She found him a better school.
26. What do we know about the program Ebony Horsewomen?
A. It was founded by Patricia Kelly. B. It is intended to make money.
C. It aims to protect the environment. D. It serves as a shelter for homeless
kids.
27. What can be inferred from the last two paragraphs?
A. It is hard for a kid to learn to ride a horse.
B. Patricia Kelly is a very successful woman.
C. Horses are closely related to the environment.
D. Horse riding is beneficial to the growth of kids.
C
Food production does great harm to our environment. There are many procedures
involved in the manufacture of food that result in greenhouse gases and other
pollution．Some procedures require the consumption of large amounts of fossil fuels
such as the transportation and storage of food products．Other factors that cause
great damage to our environment include the overuse of fresh water．
The production of beef is more damaging to the environment than that of any other
food we consume. Raising large numbers of cattle requires the production of large
amounts of food for the animals．It's estimated that producing one pound of beef
requires seven pounds of feed．
Land use is also a problem．If the cattle are free-range cattle ,large areas of
land are required for them to live on．This has led to disastrous forest cutting and
the loss of rare plants and animal species ,particularly in tropical rain forests
in Central and South America．
Anotherproblemspecifictobeefproductionismethaneemissions（甲烷排放）．Although
many people are aware of the damaging effects of carbon dioxide，they don't realize
methane’s global warming potential is 25 times worse, making it a more dire problem．
Unfortunately, beef consumption is growing rapidly．This is the result of simple
supply and demand factors．Specifically, there are two main causes of demand that
are encouraging the production of more supply. First, the increase in the world
population means there are more people to consume meat ． The second factor is
socioeconomic advancement．As citizens in developing nations become financially
stable, they can afford to buy more meat．Therefore, one way to reduce the greenhouse gas emissions is for people around
the world to significantly cut down on the amount of beef they eat．
28. The underlined word "dire" in Para.4 means_____．
A. typical B．avoidable C．normal D．urgent
29. Beef production is growing rapidly because______．
A. developing countries raises more cattle
B. more land is available to raise cattle
C. more people are in demand of beef
D. the cost of raising cattle is relatively low
30. The author writes this article to____．
A. argue for a decrease in beef consumption．
B. emphasize the advantages of beef production
C. describe the growth of the beef production
D. criticize the cutting down of trees.
31. What’s the best title for the text?
A. The process of beef production B. The benefits of beef production
C. Problems caused by beef production D. More demand for beef production
D
With the approval of the Singapore government, a company called nuTonomy has
become the first-ever to test self-driving cars with the public. Interested people
could sign up for a free trial run at no cost. When they received an invitation from
the company, they could book a ride on the driverless taxi service from their
smartphones. Not surprisingly, the rides proved very popular, with dozens of customers
eagerly trying out the cars each day.
Driverless cars are a great option for those who do not know how to drive and
for those who do not enjoy driving. Some researchers even believe that such cars can
make road travel safer by reducing human errors. But since driving requires many of
our senses to be on alert (高度警觉), replacing that by machines is easier said than
done.
The environment in which cars operate is constantly changing-from roads and
pedestrians to co-travelers. A driverless car needs special equipment to analyze its
surroundings. Then, it must translate that information into a practical route and
safe travel. To be truly autonomous, a car has to do this independently without human
input. Today, some cars have a certain degree of autonomous functions. But even the
completely automated vehicles still require a driver to take back control under
uncertain conditions.
The island city-state is well known for excellent roads and drivers who obey the
rule. This has made it ideal for real-world testing and feedback. The government has
encouraged research in autonomous vehicles, since it can improve safety and
potentially reduce the traffic burden as well.32. What is the text mainly about?
A. Driverless cars travel safely on the road now.
B. Driverless taxis have been tested in Singapore.
C. Singapore is the best place to produce driverless cars.
D. Singapore government has decided to use driverless taxis.
33. Which factor matters most when a driverless car travels on the road?
A. The input from human. B. The directions of its users.
C. The changing environment. D. The mood of the co-travelers.
34. What can we infer about the driverless cars from Paragraph 2 ?
A. They have many human senses. B. They are not absolutely safe on road.
C. They can make people enjoy driving. D. They are popular with skilled drivers.
35. What’s the author’s attitude towards the driverless car testing in Singapore?
A. negative B. indifferent C. objective D. positive
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。
Urbanization
Until relatively recently，the vast majority of human beings lived and died without
ever seeing a city. The first city was probably founded no more than 5,500 years
ago.______36_______In fact，nearly everyone lived on farms or in tiny rural (乡村
的) villages.It was not until the 20th century that Great Britain became the first
urban society in history—a society in which the majority of people live in cities
and do not farm for a living.
Britain was only the beginning. _______37_______The process of urbanization—the
migration (迁徙) of people from the countryside to the city—was the result of
modernization，which has rapidly transformed how people live and where they live.
In 1990，fewer than 40% of Americans lived in urban areas.Today，over 82% of
Americans live in cities.Only about 2% live on farms._______ 38__________
Large cities were impossible until agriculture became industrialized.Even in
advanced agricultural societies，it took about ninety-five people on farms to feed
five people in cities._____39______Until modern times，those living in cities were
mainly the ruling elite(精英) and the servants，laborers and professionals who served
them.Cities survived by taxing farmers and were limited in size by the amount of
surplus food that the rural population produced and by the ability to move this surplus
from farm to city.
Over the past two centuries，the Industrial Revolution has broken this balance
between the city and the country. _____40_______Today，instead of needing ninety-five
farmers to feed five city people，one American farmer is able to feed more than a
hundred non-farmers.
A．That kept cities very small.
B．The rest live in small towns. C．Soon many other industrial nations became urban societies.
D．The effects of urban living on people should be considered.
E．But even 200 years ago，only a few people could live in cities.
F．Modernization drew people to the cities and made farmers more productive.
G．Modern cities have destroyed social relations and the health of human beings.

One possible version：
Dear_Mr.Green，
I_am_very_happy_to_hear_that_you_will_give_a_lecture_on_western_
culture.
Knowing that you’re asking for advice on my favorite topics related
to it，I would like to share what I am interested in most.
As we all know，western culture is quite different，especially the
history of religion.Therefore，I wonder if you could tell us something about
it to enrich our knowledge.What’s more，how to follow western table manners
is also a good topic because some of us are going to study abroad after
graduation. It is the proper behavior at meals that can help us to get along
well with foreigners.
I am looking forward to your excellent lecture and I am willing to help
if you want more information.
Yours，
Li_Hua
