11、B、C、D四个选项中,选出最佳选项。21(6分)The Oklahoma teens eyes were covered by two blindfolds (眼罩) for the big surprise: being reunited with her father, James, after 12-year separation.“I had actually discussed with her the night before at a restaurant and talked over the details of where we would go and how we wo
12、uld pull it off,” said Amanda, Rory Beths mother.A video shows Amanda led her blindfolded daughter out of their car and guided her across the parking lot of Broken Arrow Lanes in Broken Arrow.Little did she know, her father was on the sidewalk holding a birthday cake that read, “Happy Birthday Rory
13、Beth, Love Dad.” When the teen slowly pulled down her blindfolds, she was dumbfounded. Both the father and daughter stood silently looking at each other until James finally walked over and hugged her. James only broke their embrace to look at his daughter and hold her face. “There were definitely lo
14、ts of tears from myself, her brothers, and even a few bystanders,” said Amanda.James was a truck driver who spent a lot of time on the road, and Amanda split with him when Rory Beth was a baby. “It was hard to figure out how to make it work,” Amanda said. Amanda felt Rory Beth was now old enough to
15、understand and to ask any questions she may have, so the reunion happened.The birthday surprise was on June 4, and the father and daughter had seen each other again since, even celebrating Fathers Day together. Amanda said her daughter and James were both delighted to be reunited “Shes already calli
16、ng him daddy and tells him that she loves him,” Amanda said. “Theyre both very committed.”1、What caused Rory Beth to be separated from her father for 12 years?AHer parents divorce.BHer fathers working as a taxi driver.CThe misunderstanding between them.DHer preference for living with her mother.2、Wh
17、y did Rory Beth reunite with her father?AHer father was eager to see her.BShe had many questions to ask her father.CShe was old enough to recognize her father.DHer mother thought it was time for her to see her father.3、What does the underlined word “dumbfounded” in Paragraph 4 mean?ATired. BScared.C
18、Shocked. DConfused.4、What do we know from the text?AThe video about the reunion was shot by James himself.BRory Beths brothers accompanied her to see her father.CRory Beth called James “daddy” on her 12th birthday.DAmanda had a conversation with Rory Beth on June 3.22(8分)In 2016, a team of Japanese
19、scientists found bacteria capable of breaking down and “eating” one of the worlds most popular plastics-polyethylene terephthalate(PET). It was valued as a potential breakthrough at the time. But a new discovery came as a team of British scientists examined an enzyme(酶) produced by the Japanese bact
20、eria to find out more about its structure. While operating the structure to better understand how it worked, they accidentally created the changed enzyme thats even more efficient at breaking down plastic bottles.The researchers are now working to further improve the enzyme so it can be used on an i
21、ndustrial scale. Its possible that within the next few years there could be an industrially possible process for turning PET into other substances so it can be recycled.The ability to scale up the process will be important. Plastic pollution is fast becoming one of the biggest environmental issues o
22、f our time. More than 1 million plastic bottles are bought around the world every minute. Most of these bottles are made from PET,which can take up to00 years to biodegrade(生物降解), and many are left in the oceans. Over half of global PET waste is not collected for recycling and only 7 percent of bott
23、les are recycled into new bottles.Some scientists say the breakthrough, though promising, is nowhere near enough to solve our pollution crisis. These enzymes are not abundantly present in nature. So you would need to produce the enzyme first, then add it to the PET plastic to degrade it.”This is lik
24、ely to be a slow process. If you have gone through the trouble of collecting the PET waste, then there are clearly far better ways to recycle it or burn it for energy,” said Wim, head of the Industrial Biotechnology Center. He suggested the use of commercially available biodegradable bioplastics wou
25、ld still be a better bet.1、What unexpected discovery did the British scientists make?AAn effective way to deal with plastic waste.BA potential solution in collecting PET waste.CThe way to understand the structure of enzyme better.DThe real value of the discovery by Japanese scientists.2、What does th
26、e underlined phrase “the process” in Paragraph 3 actually refer to?AThe process to find the enzyme.BThe process to make more plastics.CThe process to reduce the PET waste.DThe process to produce kind of new PET.3、What is the problem about recycling the PET waste?ALarge quantities of plastic bottles
27、are used.BOcean plastic waste is harder to biodegradeCMost of the PET waste is left without treatment.DMost of the plastic products are made from PET.4、What can be concluded from the last paragraph?AThe enzyme does not exist in nature.BThe enzyme has helped to solve the plastic problems.CBurning pla
28、stic waste for energy is now the best way to rid it.DWe have a long way to go to use the enzyme to recycle PET waste.23(8分)Sure, chocolate is a delicious treat, and its a staple of some of our favorite desserts. But its not a health food, so it should be enjoyed in moderation-right?Well, it turns ou
29、t that eating chocolate might actually have a pretty significant health benefit. According to research conducted by five scientists in Italy, compounds found in chocolate, called flavanols, can help boost cognitive (认知的) performance. Yup, chocolates good for your brain.The scientists, studying at th
30、e Universities of Rome and LAquila, summarized research from ten different studies. The studies assessed peoples performance on cognitive tests before and after eating cocoa or chocolate. The results were pretty telling: in nine out of the ten studies, there was a noticeable improvement after the su
31、bjects had eaten the chocolate. The scientists found improvements in “general cognition, attention, processing speed and working memory.” Sounds pretty good to us!And thats not all. In subjects, especially women, who performed the tests while sleep-deprived, the flavanols helped relieve the negative
32、 effects of the sleep deprivation. And theres even more good news. The researchers also found that eating chocolate daily (over periods ranging from five days to three months) produced noticeable long-term improvements in cognition. Older adults, whose memories were already declining, saw an especia
33、lly significant improvement.All chocolate has flavanols, since they occur naturally in cocoa. However, dark chocolate lovers feel happy, because it has more flavanols than any other type of chocolate. In fact, the scientists themselves have claimed that, after doing this research, theyve started eat
34、ing dark chocolate every day!Now, were not saying you should start eating chocolate for breakfast, lunch and dinner - its still high in sugar and low in nutrients. But next time you find yourself yawning after a sleepless night, snack on some chocolate and let the flavanols work their magic.1、What d
35、oes the underlined phrase in Paragraph 1 probably mean?AAs much as possible. BFor three meals.CIn right amount. DNot in the least.2、How does a student perform while learning after eating chocolate?AHe memorizes less than before.BHe cant concentrate on lessons in the slightest.CHe becomes more excite
36、d.DHe understands what the teacher says faster.3、According to the passage, if your memory fails, what should you do?AEat chocolate as three meals. BUse chocolate as a daily snack.CHunt for dark chocolate. DAsk a doctor for advice.4、Whats the main idea of the passage?AChocolate is a beneficial but un
37、healthy food.BEating chocolate benefits our learning.CEating chocolate works on your sleep.DChocolate contains low nutrients.24(8分) “With depressingly few exceptions, performances are dull and lack vitalityAfter years of trying to convince myself otherwise, I now feel sure that ballet is dying.”-Jen
38、nifer Homans, Apollos AngelsIs ballet dead? Has the art form evolved to depression? Jennifer Homanss conclusion to her fascinating history of ballet, Apollos Angels, is worrying.It appears that ballets pulse continues to beat strongly, however, especially with a Tchaikovsky defibrillator attached. S
39、o why are some dance commentators arguing that ballet is dying? And do they have a point?“Ballet is dead”-“Ballet is dying” -all ring tones of Friedrich Nietzsches philosophical claim: “God is dead.” Headline grabbling, certainly. Yet can ballet be defined in such black and white terms? Surely it is
40、 more abstract, filled with shades of popular grey. To start with, how do you define ballet? What is ballet today? Consider popular modern classics like Twyla Tharps In the Upper Room, where dancers wear pointy shoes and sneakers, combining contemporary and classical vocabulary together. Or closer t
41、o home, there is Graeme Murphys Swan Lake, which layers elements of Petipas choreography(编舞) with a contemporary theme and aesthetic. Many contemporary choreographers all embrace classical form and principles, then manipulate(操纵) the rules. .The line between contemporary dance and ballet is vague. I
42、n an interview with The Telegraph (2015), British choreographer Mattew Bourne acknowledges that this “cross-fertilisation” between contemporary dance and ballet continues to grow, as evidenced by the rise in new commissions from contemporary choreographers at the Royal Ballet and English National Ba
43、llet. Referring to Homanss book, Bourne believes what has changed is that “the dance forms are coming closer together”. Not dying, but merging. Reinventing. This has been the case amongst Australasian ballet companies for many years now. .Homans writes that ballets decline began after the passing of
44、 Ashton and Balanchine. Something ahs changed, certainly. A stylisic transition-from neo-classical to contemporary ballet-has occurred. Our art forms evolution has always been with extinction. Prominent dance critic with The New York Times, Alastair Macaulay, says: “ballet has died again and again o
45、ver the centuries,” and yet, “phoenix-like, rose again from its ashes”. History shows there were periods where ballet hibernated and lacked popularity. This coincided with the art forms changing forums.So here is the irony: what sells best, still, are reproductions of Petipas classics. A season with
46、out a Tchaikovsky score is a financial risk. And without Nutcracker(胡桃夹子), half the ballet companies in North America would not exist. Admittedly, as a dancer, my favourite roles-Albrecht, Prince Siegfried and Romeo-were from the classical canon; I am a traditionalist at heart (who loves to be chall
47、enged by good contemporary ballets). A part of the charm behind classical repertoire, for me, was in reproducing the glories of past greats. Classical ballets framework supports the modern process of bench-marking.Perhaps Jennifer Homanss thoughts are not completely unfounded. Perhaps ballet is dyin
48、g for some. Ballets evolution has been delayed by its audiences. And as Homans suggests in her epilogue, perhaps also by its creatives.Now here is a bold prediction. In line with the Royal Ballets programming in Brisbane this year-of Christopher Wheeldons The Winters Tale, and Wayne MacGregors Woolf
49、 Works-over the next 20 years, ballets reliance on Petipa will decrease. Contemporary ballets and merge-styled ballets will produce their box-office influence ever more.Why?It is simple: our audiences will be ready for ballet to change again.1、Why does the writer cite Jennifer Homanss words at the b
50、eginning of the passage?ATo support the writers viewpoint.BTo introduce the topic of the passage.CTo highlight the theme of the passageDTo provide the background knowledge.2、The sentence Is this not ballet?” should be put in _.ABCD3、Which of the following statements is a fact about ballet?A“Surely i
51、t is more abstract, filled with shades of popular grey.” (Para.3)B“The line between contemporary dance and ballet is vague.” (Para.5)C“Our art forms evolution has always been with extinction.” (Para.7)D“What sells best, still, are reproductions of Petipas classics.” (Para.8).4、According to Matthew B
52、ourne, _.Athe dance forms remain unchangedBcontemporary dance has reinvented classic balletCballet is experiencing growth and will continue to developDa new form of ballet is widely accepted among Australians5、The writer takes himself as an example in Paragraph 8 in order to show _.Aclassics should
53、be promotedBclassics are still of great significanceCclassical ballets framework is out of dateDcontemporary ballets attract more audiences6、What may be the audiences attitude to the change of ballet?ASupportive.BArbitrary.CCritical.DConcerned25(10分)A pretty face is never forgotten. Do you believe s
54、o? But maybe it is untrue! Psychologists believe beautiful people are less likely to be recognized. A new study suggests that attractiveness can actually prevent the recognition of faces, unless a pretty face has particularly distinctive features, such as Angelina Jolies.German psychologists think t
55、he recognition of pretty faces is distorted (扭曲) by emotions. Researchers Holger Wiese, Carolin Altmann and Stefan Schweinberger at the University of Jena, Germany, discovered in a study that photos of unattractive people were more easily remembered than pretty ones when they showed them to a group
56、of people.For the study, which was published in science magazine Neuropsychologia, the psychologists showed photos of faces to test subjects. Half of the faces were considered to be more attractive and the other half as less attractive, but all of them were being thought of as similarly distinctive
57、looking. The test subjects were shown the faces for just a few seconds to memorize them and were shown them again during the test so that they could decide if they recognized them or not.The researchers were surprised by the result. “Until now we assumed that it was generally easier to memorize face
58、s which are being considered as attractive, just because we prefer looking at beautiful faces,” Dr. Wiese said. But the study showed that such a connection cannot be easily proven. He assumes that remembering pretty faces is distorted by emotional influences, which enhance the sense of recognition a
59、t a later time. The researchers idea is backed up by evidence from EEG-recordings (脑电图记录) they used during their experiment which show the brains electric activity.The study also revealed that in the case of attractive faces, considerably more false positive results were detected. In other words, pe
60、ople thought they recognized a face without having seen it before. “We obviously tend to believe that we recognize a face just because we find it attractive.” Dr. Wiese said.1、What do we know about the photos from Paragraph 3?AThey were all of pretty faces.BThey were selected at random.CThey were no
