Although the federal gover

20、nment stopped printing them in 1945, currency notes of $500, $1,000, $5,000, and $10,000 are still legal tender. Most of them have been snatched up by private collectors.

Some minority lanuages will die out and some nations tend to keep minority languages. I reckon that most common used international languages ease our life quality and

34、communication with different nationalities. On the other hand, we need to help improve minority languages.There are many languages in the entire world but two or three minority languages die out each year. Some countries try to save dying languages. For instance, Australian Government created a proj

35、ect to save the language and culture of Maori who are Australian aborigines. And there are other projects to keep minority languages such as American Indian language.However, the worldwide job market usually requires candidates who can speak English or other international languages. People who canno

36、t speak lingua franca (共通语) could hardly be promoted at work. For example, some companies need an employee who can deal with foreign companies. So most people tend to learn at least one international language that helps them to find a better job.Therefore, world needs one common lingua franca that s

37、hould be spoken in any country. Consequently, one common language should be a required subject in every school. So anyone speaking one common language can travel without worries to any point of the world and trade their products. People will not be forced to learn many languages.In conclusion, we sh

38、ould help minority nations to keep their languages for the cultural diversity. To ease the worldwide communication among nations, we should create a common language and provide courses of it. As a result, no one will face a language issue.1、What does the underlined word “reckon” in Paragraph 1 mean?

40、its their journey.BThey can earn more money.CIt does good to find a good job.DThey are eager to get promoted.4、How can we stay away from language problems?ABy learning a common language.BBy wiping out minority languages.CBy studying more languages at college.DBy communicating more with foreigners.25

41、（10分） As the weather gets colder, we start wearing jackets, and most of us stop thinking about the sun. But the suns rays can be just as harmful when its cold and cloudy outside. “Any exposed area of your body can still get sunburned,” Dr. Apple Bodemer, an associate professor at the University of W

42、isconsin-Madison, told Live Science.Whether you spend a day on the slopes, skating on a pond or clearing snow out of your driveway, your face is still getting exposed to the suns radiation in the form of ultraviolet (紫外线) (UV) light, which can go deep into your skin cells causing DNA damage, accordi

43、ng to Bodemer.The suns long ultraviolet A (UVA) waves can cause earlier aging, sunspots and wrinkles, while its short ultraviolet B (UVB) rays are known for causing skin reddening and burns.Skin damage caused by UV exposure increases over time. More exposure to radiation contributes to more severe d

44、amage, even skin cancer. In addition, snow and ice can also make sun damage worse. They reflect up to 80 percent of UV rays reaching the ground. That means you get hit from both the sky and the ground. And skiers and snowboarders increase their risk of getting sunburned even more because UV exposure

45、 increases at higher altitudes.“Generally, the biggest factor for sun-sensitivity is how pale your skin is,” he said. “But, the reality is that even the darkest individual can get sun damage.”Luckily, the solution for protecting your skin is simple: Wear sunscreen every day. Rigel recommended using

46、sunscreen with a sun protection factor (SPF) of at least 30, and going higher at high altitudes. As a rule of thumb, SPF 30 will block 97 percent of UVB rays, SPF 50 blocking 98 percent, and SPF 100 blocking 99 percent. Whatever kind of sunscreen you use, its important to apply SPF about once every

47、2 hours.Rigel also suggested sunscreens with “broad spectrum (光谱)”to protect against both UVB and UVA raysas well as sunscreens that are water resistant for up to 80 minutes. That way, you can go about your day without it wearing off too quickly.1、Which of the statements best describes UV lights?AUV

48、B lights cause much less damage to skin than UVA lights.BSkin damage from UV lights can he totally prevented by sunscreen.CSnow and ice make people suffer much more from UV light damage.DPeople outdoors neednt worry about getting sunburned on a cold day.2、Which is the most vital factor as for sun da

49、mage?AYour skin color.BThe clothes you wear.CThe altitude of your place.DThe weather when you are outside.3、What do we know about sunscreen?AThe lower sunscreen SPF is, the better effect it will have.BPeople working in high mountains need sunscreen SPF30.CApplying sunscreen once when outside is nece

50、ssary.DWater resistant sunscreen can be applied once every 80 minutes.4、What may be the best title for the text?ABeing Exposed to Sun RaysBUltraviolet A & Ultraviolet BCGetting Less Sunburn in WinterDDifferent Kinds Of Sunscreens第三部分 语言知识运用（共两节）第一节（每小题1.5分，满分30分）阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出可以填入空白

52、 escape, saying the receiver looked pleasantly puzzled. Feeling excited, she 4 took out her phone, eager to tell her friend the 5 . Luckily, she prevented herself before she made the 6 and put the cell phone away.This is where the exercise took on an unexpected dimension. She 7 that when we tell oth

53、ers about the “good deeds” we do, we are getting the 8 right there. But, by keeping it 9 and not telling anyone, we are training a feeling inside ourselves that she 10 “a ray of sunshine inside our hearts”.I tell my students this story every year and 11 them to do a good deed and not get 12 . During

54、 our class discussion, a truly 13 student commented that my friend should have 14 and asked to talk to the receiver of the flowers, letting him know 15 the flowers were left for him. The student said that if someone really wanted to help 16 people, they should visit them once a week and get to know

55、them. 17 with the idea, the students asked if we could try this as a class. We actually found an organization that helps 18 students with seniors who need companionship. 19 , we are moving forward to try this 20 , thanks to the student taking this story in a new and powerful direction.1、Aplain Bamus
