“Fire! fire!” The 14 spread out one night, and the fire bells began to ring. Fred

4 Eco-Friendly Bikes to Ride This Summer
Nowadays, many drivers are searching for more environment-friendly ways to get around
and are starting to look back to bikes. Bikes don’t require gas. In terms of convenience, bikes
can be easier to park and can help riders get their daily exercise in.
Companies everywhere are beginning to take the traditional bike and adapt it to people’s
needs. Below are eco-friendly bikes to consider adding to your morning ride.
1. Bamboobikes
Ccycles produces Bamboo Bikes. The company sources bamboo and carbon fiber joints
for their bike frames. Bamboo is ideal for bikes because it can absorb significantly more shock高一英语试卷第 4 页（共 10 页）
than carbon fiber. It is also very lightweight compared to traditional bike materials, like steel.
But bamboo is incredibly strong and can take on twice the compression force as steel.
2. Cowboy
Cow offers Cowboy, a bike hides the battery in its frame under the saddle. The removable
battery takes about two and half hours to charge and has a range of roughly 31 miles, but the
best part is the app features. The Cowboy app gives travelers a real time dashboard (仪器板) to
check out their speed and distance. Riders never need to worry about getting lost since it has
navigation and can pull up your route history from your ride states. This smart tech also gives
riders updates about the bike’s status. The Cowboy has a high tech locking system so the owner
is the only one who can start up the bike.
3. The Faraday Bicycle
Faraday ebikes have a 250W motor, and the battery can be fully charged in less than 4
hours. Faraday recently partnered with the organization One Tree Planted to help reforest
California after the state underwent serious damage from wildfires that destroyed thousands of
acres of land in the area. The company stepped up and donated $100 from every bike sold to
plant 100 trees.
4. The Donky Bike
Wilson, who works for Donky, created The Donky Bike, a practical cargo bike. This bike
was designed to easily carry a cargo load on the frame. Like any great workhorse, this bike was
built with simple low-maintenance components and has a strong, durable frame.
31. Which bike can show you where you are?
A. Cowboy. B. Bamboobikes.
C. The Donky Bike. D. The Faraday Bicycle.
32. If you want to help reforest California, you can buy a bike from .

Journey to the West
If you have a dream, go for it.
My dad talked of the jewel in China’s western part, Tibet Autonomous Region. Tibet was a
region I wanted to see and discover but its remoteness and my inability to find the right time to
go delayed my journey. After a few talks with my dad, we decided to take a pause in our lives
for a few weeks in July 2019 to start an amazing adventure.高一英语试卷第 5 页（共 10 页）
We started our journey on a Saturday morning at the Guangzhou train station in south
China. We started the first leg of the journey admiring the mysterious mountains of south China.
The next day it changed quite suddenly to the dry, waterless landscape of central-west China as
we passed through Shanxi and Gansu provinces. That evening we arrived at Xining, Qinghai
Province, where we got onto the Xining-Lhasa train.
We were greeted on the train with Tibetan yogurt. The train signs were also written in
Tibetan, the beautiful handwriting matched its environment and people. The following
afternoon we arrived in Lhasa. Lhasa, one of the highest-altitude cities in the world, is a gem
hidden on the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau. We started our tour of the jewel by exploring the palace
and watching local people do morning prays and dances in the park. Overlooking the Jokhang
Temple, we enjoyed an amazingly beautiful breathtaking view, just like we had been in the
fairyland. It’s a stunning (令人震惊的) golden temple in the middle of old Lhasa, which we
visited next before wandering in the old quarters and Barkhor Street in the evening. Barkhor
Street is the ideal place to try local food and buy local products.
The following day, we started our journey to the Qomolangma base camp by road from
Lhasa. Along the way we stopped to admire the beautiful Yamdrok Lake, a huge freshwater
lake that is one of the three largest sacred lakes (圣湖) in Tibet. Yaks (牦牛) in blankets and
bells at the lake made for a picturesque impression of perfect countryside Tibet.
About a week later, the highlight came in the afternoon when we arrived at the
Qomolangma base camp. We were staying in a guesthouse just next to the base camp. After
dropping off our backpacks, we headed straight outside to see the magnificent Mt Qomolangma.
There it was, the top of the mountain peeking through the clouds, astonishing us with its
unbelievable height. We enjoyed the mountain waves and saw the beautiful clouds separated
until the sunset over the peak, feeling I would have regretted for the rest of my life if I hadn’t
made the journey.

Climate Change Requires the World’s Attention
In 2013, a lot of people were shocked by a news photo of a dead polar bear that was found
on Norway’s Arctic island of Svalbard. According to the scientists who found its dead body all
that remained of the polar bear was “skin and bones”. An expert who has studied polar bears for
many years said that from the position of its dead body, the bear appeared to have starved and
died. Experts claimed that low sea-ice levels caused by climate change meant the bear could not
hunt seals as before, so it had to travel greater distances in order to find food. This alarming
case showed how the increase in temperature had an impact on Earth’s ecology.
Then what is causing the increase in the global average surface temperature? Climate
scientists often mention a key climate process called the “greenhouse effect”, which has two
common meanings: the “natural” greenhouse effect and the “man-made” greenhouse effect. The
“natural” greenhouse effect, which helps keep the earth warm enough for people, plants and
animals to live on, refers to the fact that heat from the sun enters the atmosphere and warms
Earth’s surface as short-wave radiation. The heat is released back into space at longer wave
lengths. Greenhouse gases in the atmosphere, such as methane (沼气) and carbon dioxide, trap
some of the heat, keeping Earth’s climate warm and habitable. Without this process, Earth could
not sustain life. However, the man-made greenhouse effect has now become a big problem.
When people produce huge amounts of extra greenhouse gases by burning fossil fuels, more
heat energy is trapped in the atmosphere and causes Earth’s surface temperature to rise quickly.
There is strong and comprehensive evidence that the rise in temperature has led to an
increase in extreme weather and natural disasters worldwide, not only causing serious damage,
but also costing human lives. Climate scientists have warned that if we do not take appropriate
actions, this warming trend will probably continue and there will be a higher price to pay. In
fact, news reports are frequently broadcast about extreme rainstorms and heat waves causing
deaths and economic losses.
Continued greenhouse gas emissions (排放) will result in further warming and long-lasting
changes to the global climate. This requires the attention of people all over the world.
Governments need to consider making policies and taking appropriate actions and measures to
reduce greenhouse gas emissions. We as individuals can also reduce our “carbon footprint” by
restricting the amount of carbon dioxide our lifestyles produce. It is our responsibility to seize
every opportunity to educate everyone about global warming, along with its causes and impacts,
because it is all of us that share this planet. So what will you do to help?高一英语试卷第 7 页（共 10 页）
38. The dead polar bear was mentioned in the first paragraph to ?
A. show polar bears are endangered
B. raise the problem of global warming
C. raise the awareness of protecting animals
D. warn people of the damage caused by travelling
39. What is causing the rise of Earth’s surface temperature?
A. Methane. B. Carbon dioxide.
C. Heat from the sun. D. Man-made heat energy.
40. The rise of Earth’s surface temperature may result in .
A. higher cost of living B. better growth of plants
C. more extreme weather events D. speeding of animal reproduction
41. The last paragraph mainly tells us that .
A. policies are important to stop carbon dioxide emissions
B. the long-lasting effects of climate change is very serious
C. everyone should take action to reduce greenhouse gas emissions
D. it is the governments’ duty to control the process of global warming
D
A number of studies show that sports and other physical activities can contribute to the
development of self-esteem (a feeling of pride in oneself). For example, Canadian scientists
found that sixth-grade students who were more physically active had considerably higher levels
of self-esteem. A study in Switzerland found that teenagers who took part in sports clubs were
healthier, including being better socially adjusted, feeling less anxious, and generally being
happier about their lives. Similar findings were reported in a study of Latino students, where
participation in school sport was found to be greatly associated with self-esteem.
There seems little doubt that part of the potency (潜能) of sports lies in their social setting.
There are a lot of facts showing the importance of social connectedness (关联性) for healthy
child and teenager development, and sports offer a popular and engaging setting for social
interactions. Involvement in team sports has been positively associated with social acceptance
and a sense of belonging, especially where such involvement is characterized by positive
coaching, progressive skill development, and peer support.
But, the social setting of sports can exclude as well as include. There is now evidence that
boys’ and girls’ experiences of sports can be very different, and this can affect the contribution
they can make to the self-esteem of players. Peer acceptance seems to be an important factor in
determining the relationship between sport participation and self-esteem, and girls can be
particularly sensitive to negative judgments. And studies have found that many ‘girly’ boys and
girls benefit most from non-competitive physical activities.高一英语试卷第 8 页（共 10 页）
So, a note of caution ought to be sounded in case sports are considered to be a cure. Much
of the literature on the most positive psychological ( 心 理 的 ) outcomes associated with
childhood and youth sports stress the absolute importance of positive experiences. It will
surprise no one that bullying, excluding or abuse experiences will harm, rather than support the
development of self-esteem, and well-being in general. Sadly, it will also not be a shock to learn
that many children’s introductions to sports are far from improving the quality of life.
The great developmental psychologist Jean Piaget argued that the foundations of self-
esteem were laid between the ages of about 6 and 11 years of age. Importantly, this is also the
time when children are most likely to be introduced to sports. We should know the importance
of positive early sporting experiences for the development of both self-esteem and on-going
participation in sports and other physical activities. Teachers, coaches, and parents have a
responsibility to ensure that these experiences ‘catch’ as many children as possible, and for this
to happen they need to remember ‘the principles of child development’: Children are not mini-
adults.
Problems arise when adults forget these principles, and kid themselves into thinking that
they are coaching future Olympians or Super stars. Unluckily, evidence suggests that talented
children are most likely to stand out when they are given time to develop, to play, and to remain
children.
Children are not miniature adults, and their enjoyment of sports (and their self-esteem) can
suffer when adults forget this!
42. Studies in Switzerland and Latino showed teenagers who often join in sports .
A. build self-esteem earlier
B. have more good experiences
C. are more sensitive to judgments
D. are healthier both physically and mentally
43. In general, the author’s attitude toward the influence of sports on teenagers is .
A. positive B. critical C. uncertain D. tolerant
44. According to the author, when children take part in sports, they .
A. will be happier about their lives
B. are more likely to be attracted by competitive sports
C. should be treated by coaches and parents as super stars
D. will build self-esteem if given positive comment and support
45. Which of the following would be the best title for the passage?
A. Children Should Take Part in Sports
B. Sports Offer You a Better Teenage Life
C. Sports Experience and Building Self-Esteem
D. People Should Treat Teenagers Like Miniature Adults高一英语试卷第 9 页（共 10 页）

Travel Is Good For Your Health
Americans are losing their vacation days, leading to more stress, anxiety and other
negative effects because of not taking time off from work. In fact, a report by Project: Time Off,
shows U.S. employees took about 16 vacation days in 2013, down from about 20 in 2000. Apart
from taking away yourself the chance to improve your productivity and work performance, not
taking a break can lead to overloaded stress and other potentially damaging. 46
After all, vacations offer the chance to relax and restore your health. 47 You
should travel to new places because traveling somewhere new can enable you to put yourself in
new surroundings and recharge your brain power.
48 According to Dr. Margaret J. King, the director of the Center for Cultural
Studies & Analysis, “There are lots of psychological benefits when you travel from home and
work to ‘third places’, not just experiencing the environment. With a short list of activities each
day, freed up from the projects and relationships, the mind can reset, as does the body, with
stress relief the main outcome.” she says.
Little sleep mixed with high stress can lead to anger and negative consequences on your
cognitive performance and efficiency. Max Hirshkowitz, chairman of the board of the National
Sleep Foundation says a vacation is a great opportunity to catch up on sleep. 49 “Keep
that time,” he says. “Make it an important thing you need.”
Many studies suggest that travel can improve our emotional state. A 2014 survey
conducted by Diamond Resorts International found over three-quarters of people said feeling
happier when they planned a trip at least once a year. Dr. Leigh Vinocur, a certified physician
and spokesperson for the American College of Emergency Physicians, isn’t surprised by the
findings. “It’s hard to sit on a beautiful beach somewhere and think about paperwork or
deadlines. That is why over three-quarters of people to the Diamond Resorts International
survey reported feeling happier when they regularly had a vacation. Regular vacations while
taking time for yourself and your family lowers your stress level. 50 ,” she says.
Besides, studies show that looking back on the pleasant vacation may keep happiness long after
your trip.高一英语试卷第 10 页（共 10
页）
A. They have bad effects on your health, experts say.
B. Traveling has many advantages, with stress relief topping the list.
C. Travelers may be more active than sitting in an office chair all day.
D. Travel can help us reset our emotions and actually increase compassion.
E. But simply taking some time from your demanding workday schedule isn’t
enough.
F. To feel more energized, the NSF recommends at least seven hours of sleep per
night for adults.
G. It also decreases the production of all the stress hormones that contribute to
damaging our health.
