DPenthouses.23What can we learn from the passage?AThere are two beds in a Players room.BThe queen once stayed in a Park Avenue room.CThere is a small refrigerator in every room.DThe hotel provides guests with free meals.BOne day when I was five, my mother scolded me for not finishing my rice and I got angry. I wanted to play outside and not be made to finish eating my old rice. In my angry movement to open the screen door with my foot, I had kicked back about a 12-inch part of the lower left hand corner of the new screen door. But I had no remorse, for I was happy to be playing in the backyard with my toys.Today, I know if my child had done what I did, I would have scolded my child, and told him about how expensive this new screen door was, and I would have delivered a spanking for such behavior. My parents never said a word. They left the corner of the screen door be, creating an opening, a breach (裂缝) in the defense against unwanted insects.For years, every time I saw that corner of the screen, it would constantly remind me of my mistake. For years I knew that everyone in my family would see that hole and remember who did it. For years, every time I saw a fly buzzing in the kitchen, I would wonder if it came in through the hole that I had created with my angry foot. I would wonder if my family members were thinking the same thing, silently blaming me every time a flying insect entered our home, making life more terrible for us all.My parents taught me a valuable lesson, one that a spanking or stern (严厉的) words perhaps could not deliver. Their silent punishment for my behavior delivered a hundred stern messages to me. Above all, it has helped me become a more patient person and not burst out so easily.24The underlined word “ remorse” in Paragraph 1 most probably means_.AinjuryBsenseCregretDnotice25When the author damaged the door, his parents_.Ascolded him for his bad behaviorBgave him a spankingCtold him how expensive it wasDleft the door unrepaired26How did the author feel every time he saw the damaged door?AHe felt it destroyed the happy atmosphere at his home.BHe found that his family members no longer liked him.CHe felt ashamed of his uncontrolled anger at that time.DHe felt he had to work hard to make up for the damage.27What is the main idea of this text?ASilent punishment can be more powerful.BThe best way to become a more patient person.CAdults should ignore their childrens bad behavior.DParents are the best teachers of their children.CThe number of buses, taxis and other vehicles on Kenyas roads is growing every day. Now, the countrys first electric-powered motorbikes are coming onto the market. The bike is designed to cut down on pollution and aimed at low-income communities. Most motorbikes used in Kenya depend on gasoline, but not this new motorbike.Three university students developed the new ecotran bike. It catches the suns energy, stores it in batteries and uses it to charge the electric motor. Robert Achoge is one of the student inventors. “Our hope is that by the fifth year, we will be able to cover the whole of Kenya with the electric motorcycle so as to protect the environment and provide affordable transport.”The students have set up a charging station for the motorbikes in Nairobi. The small battery can run for 70 kilometers when fully charged. Once the power is used up, the motorbike has to return to the station while another charged battery is connected to the bike. The U.S. African Development Foundation (ADF) is helping set up two solar-powered charging stations in the port of Kisumu.Each ecotran bike costs about $700. One taxi operator says the new motorbike costs less to operate than that running on traditional gasoline. “When it comes to buying gasoline, theres no need. Its basically good for various things. As long as you wont take quite a heavy load, you can go with it anywhere. Otherwise, it may break down halfway. But now people still have a preference to the gas-powered bikes.”A Nairobi businessman Kennedy Kusimba is selling the ecotran bikes. He hopes they will become popular. “We also know they are more reliable compared to the gas-powered bikes. They are more efficient (效率高的) and they will last longer.”28What has happened to the vehicles in Kenya?AMotorbikes are not allowed on the road.BA new kind of motorbike is hitting the road.CThere are fewer buses and taxis in the street.DTraditional motorbikes dont need gasoline any more.29What do we know about the ecotran bike?AIt was developed by the ADF.BIt can charge itself while running.CIts energy comes from the sunlight.DIt does more harm to the environment.30What do people think of the ecotran bike?AIts better not to use it to carry too much.BIt is a good choice for the long-distance journey.CIt will take the place of gas-powered bikes soon.DIt is much more expensive than a traditional motorbike.31Where does the text probably come from?AA research plan. BAn advertisement.CA business report. DA science magazine.DWhat are your retirement plans? Keep working? Get more exercise? Or learn something new? You may put them on hold. Theres a chance that, sooner or later, you might have to move further than you were thinking, as far as mars.On Thursday, National Geographic will show the first-ever Mars show home, giving earthlings (地球人) an idea of what their life could look like on the Red Planet. In the not-so-distant year of 2037, the igloo-shaped structure could be the home of your future.It shows a house built using recycled spacecraft (航天器) parts and Martian soil, called regolith, which has been microwaved into bricks. Some parts of the home are recognizablea kitchen, a bedroombut there are fundamental differences that are important to human survival.As the Martian atmosphere is around one hundredth as thick as the Earths, people will need permanent (永久的) shelter from the sun; society will move largely indoors. Most buildings will be connected by underground passages and the houses wont have windows. The homes will have simulated solar lighting, or natural light that has been bent several times.Walls will need to be 10 to 12 feet thick to protect people from dangerous rays (光线) that can pass through six feet of steel, and a double air-locked entrance to keep the home under proper pressure.“We dont think of our houses as things that keep us alive, but on Mars your house will be a survival centre,” says Stephen Petranek, author of How Well Live on Mars. This is not just the stuff of sci-fi. “10 to 20 years from now there will certainly be people, on Mars.” Petranek says.“Weve had the technology for 30 years to land people on Mars, but we havent had the will,” Petranek says. But two main factors have “completely swung public attitudes”.The private companies participation has forced government agencies to speed up their game, and influential films such as Gravity and The Martian have caught societys eye.32What can we know about the show home from the text?AIt has no windows or doors due to security concern.BIts design presents the idea of environmental protection.CIt has thick walls keeping the home under proper pressure.DIts underground passages connect all the building together.33What do the underlined words “put them on hold” in Paragraph 1 probably mean?APut them off.BGive them away.CCarry them through.DTake them seriously.34According to Petranek, what has sped up the process of sending people to Mars?AThe great influence of the Mars show home.BThe development of related technology.CThe competition from private companies.DThe popularity of influential books on Mars.35What is the best title for the text?ALiving on Mars: Possible or Not.BSending People to Mars: Yes or No.CFirst-ever show home: How Is It Made.DFuture Home on Mars: What Will It Be Like.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。A recent survey shows that roughly 85 percent of people feel physical symptoms of stress. 36 ,and they will help you feel more energetic tomorrow: Double your chewsChewing is a super-important part of the digestion process. Chewing makes it easier for your body to break down food and turn it into energy. The most proper number of chews per bite is unclear. 37 It will be easy for your body to break down the food and store energy. Drink one less cup of coffeeAlthough caffeine in coffee blocks your brain from receiving adenosine, which causes tiredness, it doesnt stop your body from producing it. So once the caffeine disappears, its the buildup of adenosine that causes you to crash and reach for more caffeine, creating a bad circle. 38 , but drinking less coffee can help you feel more energetic over the long term. Take a few deep breathsBy not breathing deeply enough, you end up sending a signal to your nervous system that increases your anxiety even further. Changing your breathing habits by taking a few long, slow breaths throughout the day reduces the stress response while energizing your cells. 39 : Simply breathe in through your nose for a count of three and out through your mouth for a count of three. Repeat as necessary. 40 Take some time to reflect on the positive by writing down three things that went smoothly during your day or just items you feel grateful for.
