Its Zhang Yixing, the singer and dancer standing there for us young people in China, and the very one who stopped me from falling. Three years ago, my new school life began. As a junior boy from the countryside, I could hardly keep up. I tried, but still felt like an outsider. Nobody would pick me for teamwork. So I stayed in the corner, hanging my head low as if I didnt care. There was a fear in me that all my school life would be colorless. Then on May 4, I saw “colorless” in Yixings book about his life. How could this be true for someone just named the youth idol(青年偶像)? I read the book again, smiling with the fun part of his childhood and touched by his promise to his mum.Something wet my eyes when he joked about his training years in Korea. He doubled his practice, pushing himself so hard as to be called “the trainee(练习生) like god”. He said it probably meant “the trainee like mad”.I might have tried, but not as hard as he did. “Whenever I feel I might be falling, I tell myself to hold on until I find my moment.” says Yixing. For me, this moment means a better self inside and a larger world outside. So I told myself I would also make a difference if I could hold on for a longer time. Luckily, every Youth Day after that, Yixing would be there on CCTV, encouraging me with his progress. When someone asked him what color his training life was, Yixing smiled, “Its colorless. I dont know what color effort is.”But effort pays off. Now hes standing at the Asian Culture Carnival, and I know he is looking forward to something even bigger.19. When the writer just moved to the city, he _.A. enjoyed his new school lifeB. had a hard time at his new schoolC. stood outside the classroomD. wanted to go back to the countryside20. Zhang Yixing was called “the trainee like god” because _.A. he kept his promise to his mumB. he pushed everything away from himC. he was really good at telling jokesD. he spent so much time in practicing21. The writer mainly wants to tell us that _.A. sometimes people choose to live a life without colorB. we can make a difference if we work hard enoughC. great effort can make you a great singer and dancerD. school life can be full of colors if we read more books22. We can infer that the writer _.A. is ready for a trip around the worldB. is leaving to sing and danceC. is expecting a better future for himselfD. is writing a book about himself CNot only does the use of plastic water bottles hurt your wallet, it also increases pollution and wastes energy and water. Only 23 % of all plastic in America ends up in a recycling bin, meaning over $ 1 billion worth of plastic is treated as rubbish a year. Recently, Skipping Rocks Lab has invented a kind of water bottle called Ooho.It is a convenient, clear water bottle that can either be drunken or eaten. To drink it, you can either peel off the membrane(薄膜) or tear a hole in the membrane with your teeth to pour the water into your mouth. To eat it, you simply put the whole bottle in your mouth. One problem the scientists have run into is how to ship large amounts of Ooho bubbles(水泡) without arriving with a very wet truck. However, they have attempted to package units of individual bubbles together inside a larger and thicker membrane. It is targeting large outdoor events such as marathons, music festivals, and sporting events, where tons of plastic bottles are used, and frequently left behind as litter. Too much plastic is sure to do harm to the environment, which could account for their purpose of such a new invention.The team has been working for the past two years to develop the technology and materials needed to produce Ooho; they have recently applied a patent for their new advancements. The price for an individual bubble or a unit of bubbles has not been set yet, but they cost about two cents to create a unit, which is cheaper than plastic bottles. It has appeared at events in London, San Francisco, Boston, at conferences, festivals, and so on.Ooho is catching many peoples attention and has raised over $ 1 million and gained 1, 000 investors in only three days. It is mostly being sold at events at the moment to keep the consumers interest while the production machine is getting up and running. It is quickly making a rise, so keep an eye out this year for these bottles of the future.23. How is most plastic dealt with in America?A. Its sold. B. Its recycled.C. Its buried. D. Its wasted.24. Why did the team invent Ooho?A. To make a profit for a company. B. To protect the environment.C. To make people eat as they drink. D. To reduce the cost of plastic bottle.25. What can we infer about Ooho from the text?A. It is easy and safe to ship it in large amounts.B. It has become popular since it began to be sold.C. It might be sold at a lower price than plastic bottles.D. It cost the team a lot of money to develop the technology.26. What does the author really want to say in the last paragraph?A. Ooho is to be a success in the future.B. Ooho is being supported by smart people.C. Ooho is taking the place of plastic bottles now.D. Ooho is being produced to attract more investors.DTeens and younger children are reading a lot less for fun, according to a Common Sense Media report published Monday.While the decline over the past decade is steep for teen readers, some data in the report shows that reading remains a big part of many childrens lives, and indicates how parents might help encourage more reading.According to the reports key findings, “the proportion(比例) who say they hardly ever read for fun has gone from 8 percent of 13-year-olds and 9 percent of 17-year-olds in 1984 to 22 percent and 27 percent respectively today.”The report data shows that pleasure reading levels for younger children, ages 2-8, remain largely the same. But the amount of time spent in reading each session has declined, from closer to an hour or more to closer to a half hour per session.When it comes to technology and reading, the report does little to counsel(建议) parents looking for data about the effect of e-readers and tablets on reading. It does point out that many parents still limit electronic reading, mainly due to concerns about increased screen time.The most hopeful data shared in the report shows clear evidence of parents serving as examples and important guides for their kids when it comes to reading. Data shows that kids and teens who do read frequently, compared to infrequent readers, have more books in the home, more books purchased for them, parents who read more often, and parents who set aside time for them to read.As the end of school approaches, and school vacation reading lists loom(逼近) ahead, parents might take this chance to step in and make their own summer reading list and plan a family trip to the library or bookstore.27. What is the Common Sense Media report probably about?A. Childrens reading habits. B. Quality of childrens books.C. Childrens after-class activities. D. Parent-child relationships.28. Where can you find the data that best supports “children are reading a lot less for fun”?A. In paragraph 2. B. In paragraph 3.C. In paragraph 4. D. In paragraph 5.29. Why do many parents limit electronic reading?A. E-books are of poor quality. B. It could be a waste of time.C. It may harm childrens health. D. E-readers are expensive.30. How should parents encourage their children to read more?A. Act as role models for them.B. Ask them to write book reports.C. Set up reading groups for them.D. Talk with their reading class teachers. 第三节 七选五阅读 (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。Secret codes(密码) keep messages private. Banks, companies, and government agencies use secret codes in doing business, especially when information is sent by computer.People have used secret codes for thousands of years. 31 Code breaking never lags(落后) far behind code making. The science of creating and reading coded messages is called cryptography.There are three main types of cryptography. 32 For example, the first letters of “My elephant eats too many eels” spell out the hidden message “Meet me.” 33 You might represent each letter with a number, for example. Lets number the letters of the alphabet, in order, from 1 to 26. If we substitute a number for each letter, the message “Meet me” would read “13 5 5 20 13 5.”A code uses symbols to replace words, phrases, or sentences. To read the message of a real code, you must have a code book. 34 For example, “bridge” might stand for “meet” and “out” might stand for “me.” The message “Bridge out” would actually mean “Meet me.” 35 However, it is also hard to keep a code book secret for long. So codes must be changed frequently.A. It is very hard to break a code without the code book.B. In any language, some letters are used more than others.C. Only people who know the keyword can read the message.D. As long as there have been codes, people have tried to break them.E. You can hide a message by having the first letters of each word spell it out.F. With a code book, you might write down words that would stand for other words.G. Another way to hide a message is to use symbols to stand for specific letters of the alphabet.第四节 完形填空（共20小题；每小题1. 5分，满分30分）阅读下面的短文，从短文后各题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。Hannah Taylor is a schoolgirl from Manitoba, Canada.

Hannahs Place is divided into several areas, providing shelter for people when it is so cold that 50 outdoors can mean death.
