Since it first opened after four years of construction in 1937 at a cost of $27 million,the Golden Gate
Bridge has made its appearance in films and poetry.
CNN Travel spent a day climbing into and ground the bridge,learning these secrets from the people
who know and love it best.
Why is it called the Golden Gate Bridge?It’s not golden.
“The Golden Gate Bridge gets its name because it spans what is called the Golden Gate Strait,”said
Paolo Cosulich-Schwartz,spokesman for the Golden Gate Bridge,Highway and Transportation District,
which operates the bridge.It’s a three-mile-long and one-mile-wide body of water that connects the
Pacific Ocean to the San Francisco Bay.
What color is the bridge?It looks red.
“It’s not red,although you’re not crazy to think so.Visitors all call it red,”said Russell.“Back
in the day,the US Navy,then part of the War Department,oversaw the waterways and wanted to paint this
bridge black and yellow for high visibility,”said fellow painter Jarrod Bauer.“They ended up mixing
paint to create the color International Orange,which is similar to the color of red lead,”he said.
Does the bridge get entirely painted every year?
No,and it doesn’t need to be.It’s true that the top coat has been fully repainted over time with new 2
and environmentally-improved International Orange top coats.
Who performs bridge rescues?
McVeigh and his fellow ironworkers , the so—called “ Cowboys of the Sky ”, have that
responsibility.McVeigh has lost count of how many troubled souls he’s been called to rescue over the past
17 years.
In September in 2018,the bridge started constructing a suicide(自杀)prevention system,also known as
the safety net,to keep people from jumping off the Golden Gate Bridge.It’s expected to be completed in
2021.
1.What’s the true color of the Golden Gate Bridge?
A.Red. B.Red lead.
C.Black and yellow. D.International Orange.
2.Who can probably be called a hero on the Golden Gate Bridge?
A.McVeigh. B.Jarrod Bauer.
C.Russell. D.Paolo.
3.What can we know about the Golden Gate Bridge?
A.It is safer now because of the safety net.
B.It got its name because of its color.
C.It took much time and money to be built.
D.It needs to be repainted once a year.

When the young donkey Daisy May came to us,she was pregnant.With no donkey experience.I was
unprepared for what might come next.
After some difficulty,Daisy’s baby was born.I thought the poor thing was dead.I planned to put the
loss behind us and make sure she never got pregnant again.Just then,I heard a little noise.I couldn’t
believe that baby was breathing and looking at me!We called him Samson,and of course I became his
mother as much as Daisy was.
When Samson was nine months old,I had to separate Daisy and Samson for a few hours a day to
wean(使断奶)him,but otherwise he went wherever she did.I think she would be lost without him.His
donkey stepdad Bernard taught him to always be ready to have fun.They enjoy playing football together
and going for a roll on a hot summer day.3
I asked a worker to make a harness(马具)for my three little donkeys.When I brought it home I taught
them one by one how to pull a cart. Samson watched and freely followed Daisy.When he was three,I put
the harnness on him and he knew exactly what to do.
That was 15 years ago.Now,the most exciting thing about Samson is that he has become a little
renowned.People come from all over to see him perform.The neighbors bring their grandchildren,and my
sons bring their friends.
Samson shakes hands,unties my shoe,picks up a hat and more.And when I ask him if he has any bad
habits,he tries to pick my pocket!He surprisingly learned these tricks himself.I just ask him to do them and
he understands.
The relationship I have with my“baby”Samson has been an amazing experience.Every day is a fun
day with this superstar donkey.

C
Sam is a fourth-year student at Harvard Medical School,but poetry is still a big part of his life,now
with a new teacher , Rafael Campo , who believes poetry can benefit every doctor ’ s education and
work.Rafael is a physician,professor and a highly respected poet.4
“Poetry is in every encounter( 邂逅)with my patients .I think healing is really in a very great way
about poetry.And if we do anything when we’re with our patients,we’re really immersing(使沉浸
于)ourselves in their stories,really hearing their voices.And,certainly,that’s what a poem does,”he
said.
Rafael worries that something important has been lost in medicine and medical education today :
humanity,which he finds in poetry.To end that,he leads a weekly reading and writing workshop for
medical students and residents(住院医生).
He thinks medical training focuses too much on distancing the doctor from his or her patients,and
poems can help close that gap.
Third-year resident Andrea Schwartz was one of the workshop regulars.She said.“I think there’s no
other profession other than medicine that produces as many writers as it does.And I think that is because
there’s just so much power in doctors and patients interacting when patients are at their saddest.”Not
everyone believes that’s what doctors should do,though.
Rafael said,“I was afraid of how people might judge me,actually.In the medical profession,as
many people know,we must always put the emergency first.But,you know,that kind of treatment,if
it’s happening in the hospital,very regrettably,sadly,results in a bad outcome.The family is sitting by
the bedside.The patient hasn’t survived the cancer.Don’t we still have a role as healers there?”
In a poem titled“Health”,Rafael writes of the wish to live forever in a world made painless by our
incurable joy.He says he will continue teaching students,helping patients and writing poems,his own
brand of medicine.
8.What do we know about Rafael Campo?
A.He works as a doctor. B.He is under medical care.
C.He is a literature professor. D.He knows little about poetry.
9.What does the author try to show in Paragraph 2 ?
A.The importance of medical training.
B.The effect of poetry in medical treatment.
C.The similarity involved in poetry and medical work.
D.The present relationship between patients and doctors.
10.What does Andrea Schwaflz think of poetry?
A.It comforts patients’family.5
B.It contributes to medical work.
C.It has nothing to do with doctors.
D.It keeps doctors away from patients.
11.What is Rafael Campo’s view on poetry?
A.It requires a lot of spare time.
B.It can provide a useful tool for doctors.
C.It has little effect on patients’conditions.
D.It should be included in emergency treatments.6
D
A new device works like a solar panel,except that it doesn’t harvest energy from the sun.It absorbs
energy from the cold night sky.
A prototype(原型)of the device produced enough electricity at night to power a small light bulb.A
bigger version might one day light rooms or charge phones.It also could power electronics in remote or
low-resource areas that lack electricity.
The device makes use of the temperature difference between Earth and outer space.It then uses that
difference to create electricity.As long as one side of it is cooler than the other,the generator can produce
electricity.The cooler side faces the sky and is attached to an aluminum plate.That plate is sealed beneath
a transparent cover and surrounded with insula tion(隔热材料)to keep out heat.The bottom of the
generator is attached to an exposed aluminum plate.That plate is warmed by the local air.At night,the top
plate can get a couple of degrees Celsius cooler than the bottom of the generator.
Researchers tested a 20-centimeter prototype one clear December night in Stanford,California.The
generator produced up to about 25 milliwatts of power per square meter of device.That was enough power
to light a small light-emitting diode,or LED bulb.Further improvements might increase its production to at
least 500 milliwatts per square meter.To do that,the system might need more insulation around the cool
top plate.
The device also could help power remote weather stations or other environmental devices , says
Aaswath Raman.He is a materials scientist who worked on the device at the University of California,Los
Angeles . This may be useful in polar regions that don ’ t see sunlight for months at a time , Raman
says.“If you have some low-power load and you need to power it through three months of darkness,this
might be a way.”
12.What can we know about the new device?
A.It gains energy from the sun. B.It’s been widely used in life.
C.It is cooler than a solar panel. D.It’11 be popular in special areas.
13.What does the author mainly talk about in Paragraph 3?
A.Application fields of the device.
B.The developing process of the device.
C.The working principle of the device.
D.Significant effects of the device.7
14.How can the device produce more electricity?
A.By putting more insulation around the top plate.
B.By using it in extremely cold and clear nights.
C.By attaching the bottom plate to a warm plate.
D.By covering the top plate with a transparent lid.
15.What could be a suitable title for the text?
A.A Device Using the Cold Night Sky to Produce Electricity
B.A Device Bringing New Hope for Those in the Cold Night
C.The Difference Between a Solar Panel and a New Device
D.The Temperature Difference Between Earth and Outer Space

阅读下面短文,从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
Fishing is a great family sport,and a fun summertime activity.16 .If you have never fished before
it can seem very complicated . Expert fishers know when and where to find certain fish and the best
technique to catch each fish.Expert knowledge comes from years of experience. 17 .
As a beginner you will want to use a technique called“Bait(鱼饵)Fishing”.This type of fishing is
probably the easiest technique for catching fish.You will need some basic fishing equipment,which you
can get at almost any outdoor gear store.You will have to have a rod and fishing line,hooks,some bait and
if you are planning on keeping the fish,you will need something to store the fish.
The best way to learn how to fish is to learn from someone who already knows,so when planning
your fishing trip,be sure to bring along someone who has fished before. 18 ,you will need to decide where
to go fishing.Probably for the first time you will want to go to a local lake,where the water is calm and
there are plenty of fish.You should also try to research the different types of fish that live in the place you
decide to fish,so you know what types of bait they like to eat and what you want to do with the fish once
you have caught it.
19 ,you probably want to clean the fish,then store it before continuing fishing.If you want to release
the fish,be extra careful when removing the hook,so it doesn’t get hurt too badly,then gently hold the
fish in the water and allow it to swim away out of your hands.
20.Take some time to learn from an expert and you will be able to catch all types of fish using a wide
variety of methods.8
A.If you want to keep the fish
B.After you have decided to go fishing
C.Once your hook and bait is in the water
D.Now you have a very basic understanding of fishing
E.There are many different species of fish and types of fishing
F.Here are a few simple and basic fishing tips to get you started

数应为 150 左右。
During the winter of 1986 I was working in construction near Oakland,California.It is not unusual for
construction workers’hands to become very painful during winter after working with concrete,wet wood,
mud,etc.My hands were no exception that year.They were actually cracking(龟裂)open at the joints in
the fingers and thumbs.So I was always conplaining about my hurting hands.I often wondered when my
cracked hands would not be painful.
Stopping work because of hurting hands is simply not possible in the construction industry.You grit
your teeth( 咬 紧 牙 关 ) , keep working and finish the job—but do further damage to your hands in the
process.The only break occurs on weekends.My co-workers and I used to comfort each other almost every
day.The pain is similar to that of“paper cuts”occurring many times an hour.
One morning I left for work at 5:00 a.m.to pour concrete and pulled into a gas station to fuel
up.As I got out of my truck,I noticed a newspaper delivery van(有篷货车)and the driver struggling with
bales(大捆)of daily newspapers.I took a second look and noticed that the man was born with arms that
ended halfway down each forearm.I was amazed to see him doing a job that would otherwise require a
very physically gifted person.Still,he was somewhat struggling with the large bales because his arms 11
simply weren’t long enough to carry these bales.Instead he had to“pinch”the bales and lift them with his
short and thick arms.Then I found he had difficulty tying his shoes although he had tried many times.I
wondered how I could give him some help.

contest designed for exchange students in our city.
The contest,whose theme is“China in my eyes”,will be held in the City Library on July 18th,
2020.Since you have made great progress in learning Chinese,why not take part in this activity as a

Looking forward to your early reply!
Yours,

第二节
One possible version:
Paragraph 1:
On my way to the convenience store at the station,I stopped and asked him if I could help him in any
way.He politely refused my offer.A few minutes later,while I was putting more fuel into my truck,he
cried out suddenly,“Hey buddy,I think I need some help.Would you mind tying my shoes for me?”As
I was tying his shoes,he went on to explain that tying his shoes was the only thing he couldn’t do for
himself.He thanked me as I got into my truck and started to drive away.
Paragraph 2:
I came to a full stop and looked back at him as he was getting into his van.I looked down at my
hands.Suddenly it hit me:I had been complaining about my hurting hands for weeks.That man back there
would have done anything to have my cracked hands . Every winter after that when mv hands started
cracking,I thought back to that man without forearms in 1986.And just like magic,they stopped
hurting.
