三、完形填空（共 10 小题，每小题 1 分，共 10 分）
A power nap in the middle of a stressful day can be important and necessary.
This was how my daily life was arranged (安排) 41 kindergarten to middle school back in
China—my classmates and I would always take a mid-afternoon 42 for an hour or two after lunch,
during which we napped and rested. This arrangement allowed us to start off the 43 half of the
school day feeling energetic.
When I started high school in the USA, however, things 44 . Students are only given 30
minutes for lunch and have to 45 to classes right afterward.
I’ve been in the USA for two years, but I’m still 46 with the absence of a nap in my school
schedule. I often feel 47 during the class following lunch. And when I get home from school, I
can’t start my homework without first taking a power nap for 30 minutes.
This difference in work schedules between China and the USA made me 48 how napping
habits vary (不同) among different countries. In Spain, for example, people have their traditional “siesta”,
meaning a short nap of 20 or 30 minutes every afternoon, while businesses and schools in countries like
China, Mexico and Greece tend to give a mid-afternoon break of one or two 49 .
Even if I’m currently living in the USA, I still believe that napping can refuel (补充燃料) a person
who doesn’t have much energy left after 50 work. After all, this article was written right after a
30-minute nap.

A lot of films have tried to show the afterlife and people’s memories of their dead family members.
But few have done this as well as Coco (《寻梦环游记》), Disney’s up-to-date film.
“One thing’s for certain— 54 ,” Katie Walsh wrote a film review in The Record.
The film comes from the Mexican holiday of Dia de los Muertos (亡灵节), or Day of the Death in
English. In the story, a young boy named Miguel wants his family to help with his musical dream. On
Dia de los Muertos, an accident takes him to the “Land of the Dead”. There, Miguel meets his dead
family members and has an adventure.
As The Atlantic said, the “Land of the Dead” is not a scary place. There are friendly skeletons(骷髅).
They can cross a bridge made of flowers on Dia de los Muertos to “visit” their living family members.
As long as their family puts their photos on a family shrine (神龛), they can do this every year. Otherwise,
their spirits will disappear completely.
With its wild imagination, the story sends a clear message about the importance of family. Family is
at the center of Mexico culture. On Dia de los Muertos people in Mexico remember their ancestors just
like the characters in the film. They also share food and drinks to keep the spirits of their family members
alive. The film teaches kids to keep and respect the memories of their elders, Peter Debruge wrote in
Variety.
54. Which of the following sentence can be put into the underlined place?
A. You are going to call your teachers.
B. You are going to chat with your neighbours.
C. You are going to call your grandparents.

D. You are going to chat with your friends.
55. What does the underline word “They” in paragraph 4 refer to?
A. The memories of the elders. B. The dead family members.
C. The living family members. D. The photos of family members.
56. What is the story mainly about?
A. It teaches the kids to know the importance of family.
B. It teaches the kids never to give up their musical dream.
C. It teaches the kids how to face the friendly skeletons bravely.
D. It tell the kids what is the Mexican holiday of Dia de los Muertos

Dr. Pamela Fisher has put music in over 1,100 animal shelters (庇护所), saying that it makes dogs
and cats quiet and even cut down on barking. Fisher asked artists around the world to share dog-friendly
and cat-friendly music. Her “community” has grown to include 50 shelters that keep over 115,000 dogs
and cats.
One fan was Tina Gunther. In the countryside, winter temperatures for dogs and cats usually ran
below zero and the wind blew nearly every day. To calm the animals, Gunther tried the old radio. Besides
poor reception (接收效果), the news and sports had people shouting and crying loudly. “It makes great
difference,” she said. So she and her husband had to buy a second one for the cats. “When we play songs
they like, they go and sit by the speakers.” Gunther said.
No one has studied the influence of Fisher’s music idea. But others have looked at how music and
noise in general affected animals. A study found that animals were more likely to sleep and less likely to
bark when Mozart, Beethoven and other similar music were playing, but not when heavy metal and other
sounds were playing.
Fisher validated her idea useful, which guided a survey of more than 500 shelters. The survey
found barking reduces by half and animals more relaxed. They are still happy, and they just aren’t
barking.
Beyond the music, the shelter owners do what they can to reduce stress of the dogs, including toys,
food and spending time with them. “Reducing their stress helps them show off their personalities and
they can get adopted (收养) quickly,” said Fisher. “The music also helps the owners and that benefits the
animals too.”
57. When dogs listen to dog-friendly music, what will they do?
A. They will get excited. B. They will calm down.
C. They will never bark. D. They will become clever.
58. Which question has been answered in the passage?
A. What music influences animals. B. How music protects animals.
C. When music works on animals. D. Why music has an influence on animals.
59. What’s the meaning of the underline word “validated” in paragraph 4?
A. refused B. doubted C. changed D. proved
60. What can we learn from the last paragraph?
A. It is hard for the dogs to be adopted.
B. The dogs in the shelter are only fond of toys.
C. Reducing stress is good for the dogs.
D. The owners of the shelter like cat-friendly music.

Wang Yue, a seventh-grader from Jiangsu, opened a study app to see how to work out a hard maths
problem. However, a series of game advertisements appeared.
In fact, that is just one of several disappointing things about study apps that are widely used by
students. Study apps aim to help students learn. For example, students can check answers for problems
and take online courses anytime they want. However, with more study apps coming into the market,
serious competition has caused some apps to change. Making good use of them has caught the attention
of the public.
Some study apps have social media features that can disturb students. Li Xieyichang, 14, from
Sichuan, has noticed this. “I once joined a chat group to learn from others. However, hundreds of
messages bombarded my phone,” she said. So, she said bye-bye to the group chat. “If you don’t have
self-control, just spend most of your time studying and give up unrelated (无关紧要的) things,” she
said.
In addition, some students spend so little time on homework that they simply copy answers from
study apps. Zhang Shiyuan, 14, from Shanghai, often sees her classmates do so. But she has a better way
to use study apps. “They show many ways to solve one problem. I try them one by one and see how they
work. Then I use the things I’ve learned to solve the problem again,” she said.
Sun Zhenyao, 13, from Anhui, thinks students can use study apps with the help of their parents. He

often watches online classes and does packages of exercises before exams. His parents help him choose
and pay for the right classes.
根据短文内容，完成下列空格，每空一词。
Nowadays, more and more students show 86 in study apps. It can be learned from the article
above that study apps can be both helpful and harmful. On one hand, some students 87 their
problems by using study apps properly. They can check answers for problems on their own and study
online 88 they want to. They know how to give up unrelated things and may learn different ways to
deal with one problem. On the other hand, parts of them 89 think while completing their homework
and they just copy answers from study apps. Sometimes, they may be disturbed because of hundreds of
messages as well. All in all, probably some students will lose themselves in study apps 90 the help
of their parents.

In the United States, every high school student gets a locker in the school hallway. They put their
books, personal things and sports equipment in it.
However, it seems that lockers aren’t so popular anymore at one US high school. At Stevenson High
School in Illinois, students might not use them all year round. Now they store things like books on iPads.
The school has a new policy to encourage students to use lockers. Students can decide if they will
use lockers or keep things themselves. The school has about 4,500 lockers in different hallways more
than its 4,190 students.
In fact, many factors led to the decreased (减少的) usage of lockers. About five years ago, the
school started handing out iPads to lighten the loads of student backpacks. Also, some students think it is
not convenient to use lockers. The hallways are too crowded to find their own lockers.
Nearly half of the students at the school have applied for lockers this semester. The school is able to
give each student a location in the hallway of his or her choice. Some students wanted a locker along
their morning way from the parking area. Others wanted it on the way to their practice or rehearsal (排练)
so they can put their things away more easily.
The school will end the least popular hallways and remove some lockers there. Meanwhile, more
and more lockers appear which are suitable for students to store musical instruments and oversized sports
equipments.
根据短文内容，完成下列表格，每空一词。

What are they 91 for? ● To keep students’ books, personal things and sports
