The Dead Sea, a salt lake close to Israel, Jordan and the We
11、st Bank, is shrinking at an alarming rateabout 3.3 feet per year, according to the environmentalist group EcoPeace Middle East.“Its not just like one country is punishing the Dead Sea; its more like the whole region,” said photographer Moritz Kstner, who visited the area in February to work on his s
12、eries “The Dying Dead Sea”.The Dead Sea needs water from the other natural sources surrounding it, such as the Jordan River basin. But around the 1960s, the courses of some water sources it relied upon were diverted. Israel, for instance, built a pipeline during that time so it could supply water th
13、roughout the country.Mineral extraction(提取) industries are another main reason why the water levels are declining, experts say. The Dead Seas minerals have been popular for their medical power and can often be found in cosmetics(化妆品) and other consumer products.And then, of course, theres the Middle
14、 Easts hot, dry climate, which makes it difficult for the lake to refill itself. Last year, Israel and Jordan signed a $900 million deal in an effort to stabilize the Dead Seas water levels. It involves building a canal from the Red Sea to the Dead Sea which would be able to not only supply water to
15、 Israel and Jordan but also to pump much needed watersome 300 million cubic meters annuallyinto the Dead Sea.“This is the most important and significant agreement since the peace treaty with Jordan (in 1994),” said Silvan Shalom, Israels energy and water resources minister at the time. Whether the c
16、analestimated to take three years to completewill work out positively and as planned remains to be seen.For now, Kstner shows us that the Dead Sea remains very much a place of interest, with people from all over the world going there to swim in its salty waters.1、How many reasons for the Dead Seas s

But it will be more famous for making your next holid
20、ay come more quickly.The space agency is working on a new plane, which could solve the problems of supersonic(超音速的) flight and vastly increase the speed of journeys abroad. If successful, the plane would be able to fly between New York and London in just three hours. And it would reduce the time spe
21、nt flying other journeys by a half, since it could be used more broadly. Until now, the problem with such planes has been the sonic boom(声爆), made famous by the original Concorde. That happens when a plane reaches supersonic speeds.It is a thunderous noise that upsets people on the ground disturbing
22、 animals and even causing physical problems to materials and houses underneath. It was that effect that led Congress to ban such planes from being used over the US land, a decision that in turn was responsible for Concordes failing to be commercially used.In view of the problem, the space agency has
23、 developed a new technology and tried it out in wind tunnels, and now believes that it could be put to commercial use. That plane will fly as high as 55,000 feetfar higher than normal planesand make a sound of only 60 decibels. Thats far less than 90 decibels thrown out by normal planes, and is roug
24、hly in line with a car on the motorway or a busy restaurant.“As long as we can get endorsement from the general public, the plane will probably be something thats acceptable,” said Peter Coen, project manager for NASAs commercial supersonic research team, in a new Bloomberg report. “If we get approv
25、ed, we will have the full-sized version of the plane tried out and the plane will be put into use.”1、Why does the author mention Concorde?ATo suggest the rapid development of planes.BTo stress the negative effect of sonic booms.CTo introduce how a commercial plane is designed.DTo show Congress impor
26、tant role in making planes.2、What is the fourth paragraph mainly about?AThe basic data of the new plane.BThe working principle of the new plane.CThe problems of the new plane.DThe potential market of the new plane.3、What does the underlined word “endorsement” in paragraph 5 mean?AResponseBCommitment
27、CInvestmentDAgreement4、What is the purpose of the passage?ATo inform people of NASAs new plane.BTo prove the disadvantages of supersonic flight.CTo explain why speed matters in supersonic flight.DTo clarify some misunderstandings about commercial planes.23(8分)Do companies need a strong leader to sta
28、y competitive? Many would say “yes, definitely”, but the employees of one Swedish software consultancy company would tell them otherwise. They dont have a CEO. Nobody tells anyone what to do, instead, all the 40 employees have meetings and decide together.Crisp has become world famous for not having
29、 a boss. Hoping to get its employees more involved, it moved on to change its chief executive officer (CEO) annually, but ultimately, the 40-strong staff decided to scrap the position altogether.Well, it turns out that not having a boss, and being involved in decision making has made Crisps 40 emplo
30、yees more responsible and motivated. And even if someone does make a bad call at some point, its definitely not the end of the world.According to the BBC, the unique Swedish company is apparently set up more like a family nobody tells anyone what to do, but the unspoken understanding is that “you do
31、nt mess up the house”.Crisp does hold four-day meetings for the whole staff two or three times a year, when they decide on things that affect everyone, like changing their headquarters, but generally, company employees are encouraged to make their own decisions. They also have a company board, a leg
32、al requirement in Sweden, which acts as a last resort, in case something goes horribly wrong.So far, the “no CEO” experiment has gone surprisingly well. Henrik Kniberg, an organizational coach at Crisp, claims that not having to ask the boss to approve project decisions or budgets means that things
33、happen a lot faster and the company can respond to clients quicker.However, Kniberg stresses that not having to ask the CEOs permission about stuff doesnt remove employees responsibility to consult with their colleagues and explain their decisions. However, some CEOs believe that the idea only works
34、 in small startups, because it would be too chaotic(混乱的)in large organizations.1、What can we learn from the text?AT here was no CEO in the company from the very beginning.BEveryone in the company is the boss.CEvery employee takes turns to take charge of Crisp.DThe company board was founded for more
35、than legal purpose.2、Crisps practice without a boss is successful because _.Ait has encouraged every staff member to contribute to the companyBit has helped its employees avoid making mistakesCit has made Crisp world famous in the competitive environmentDit has saved money otherwise paid to the CEO3
36、、It can be inferred from the text EXEPT that _.ACrisps successful way may not be popularized in a big companyBmaking quick decisions is an advantage in businessCemployees in Crisp have to discuss with each otherDCrisps employees are actually relatives4、Which factor may NOT contribute to a companys s
37、uccess according to the text?AQuick response to its clients.BEmployees responsibility.CA companys scale(规模).DEmployees motivation.24(8分) In America,the number of people killed in car crashes in 2016 was above 40,000 for the first time in a decade,data released on Wednesday shows“Americans believe th
38、ere is nothing we can do to stop crashes from happening,but that isnt trueWe are behind the rest of the developed world in addressing highway fatalities(死亡)We just havent been willing to do what needs to be done,”said Deborah APHersman,president of the National Safety CouncilThe National Safety Coun
39、cil data shows a 6 percent increase in deaths in 2018 when compared with 2015 and a 3 percent increase in the number of miles Americana drove in 2016“Motor vehicle fatality numbers have been ringing the alarm for two years,”Hersman said“Unfortunately,we have been blind to the data and the killings o
40、n our roadwaysIf we fail to take action,the death tell will continue to rise”“The trend is clear:After years of progress,highway deaths are heading in the wrong direction,”said Jonathan Adkins,a state safety officialThe number of people killed reached a record low of 32,675 in 2014,according to NHTS
41、A statisticsThat record followed a fairly steady downward track for the past six years that experts attributed it primarily to safety features that have been built into cars and trucksSafety advances including increased seat-belt use,air bags,anti-lock braking,stability controls and electronic warni
42、ngs and camerasThe bad economy and high gas prices also influenced the reduction in deathsNow,with unemployment and gas prices both low,more people are driving for work and pleasure trips“Its not just that Americans drive more miles when the economy improves ;its the kind of miles they drive,”said A
43、drian Lund,president of the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety1、Whats Hersmans attitude towards the present situation?AIt has been getting betterBIt can hardly be improvedCThe efforts are far from enoughDMuch work hart already been done2、What do we learn about the number of highway deaths in 201

46、ly to do so.Oxford University researchers based their finding on an analysis of the General Social Survey.The authors say one explanation could be that more intelligent individuals are better at judging characters and may spend more time building relationships with people they can trust.Another reas
47、on could be that smarter people are better at weighing up situations and assessing whether or not the other person will hold up his or her end of a bargain.“Intelligence is shown to be linked with trusting others.”said the studys lead author,Noah Carl of Oxford University,“This finding supports what
48、 other researchers have argued,namely that being a good judge of character is a distinct part of human intelligence.”In addition,the study shows that individuals who are more trusting are also happier with their lives and had higher levels of physical health.The Oxford researchers found,however,that
49、 the links between trust and health,and between trust and happiness,are not explained by intelligence.The findings confirmed that trust is a valuable resource for an individual,and is not simply a measure of intelligence.The authors say the research is significant because the study of social trust c
50、ould have far-reaching implications in public welfare,as social trust contributes to the success of important social institutions,such as welfare systems and financial markets.According to Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development,trust is in increasingly short supply in current generat

Its not easy,it takes time,but you do it through your behavior,not just things you say.1、It can be concluded from the analysis of the General
