Their supervisor told NBC News early Wednesday.Russian of
17、ficials had feared the siege（封锁） could last for another month, the time it would take to reach the islands in the Kara Sea, high in the Arctic Circle. But on Tuesday night a research ship took a detour (绕道) to assist those weathermen, station supervisor Vasily Shevchenko told NBC News. The ship run
18、by Russias state-run oil firm Rosneft frightened away the bears using its helicopter, before resupplying the weather station with more food and puppies . The puppies are not yet bigenough to deter the bears, but the station is planning to draft in a replacement adult guard dog as soon as possible.So
19、me of the bears had taken to sleeping directly outside the windows of remote outpost. There was no risk of the researchers starving because they had a years worth of food, but they were forced to take dangerous trips to a nearby building, holding a gun for protection, according to Shevchenko.Polar b
20、ears are an endangered species. In Russia, its a crime to shoot them unless in self-defense. The bears usually leave the islands in the summer, but this time they were trapped by the melting ice, an apparent sign of climate change, according to Shevchenko. “Theyve stayed on the island because there
21、is nowhere for them to go,” he said.The animals suffer from global warming because it shrinks the floating ice that forms their main hunting ground. According to the environmental group the World Wide Fund for Nature, known as the WWF, this has got some polar bears to go near human habitats in searc

24、s.C. WWF made some contributions to protecting polar bears.D. The five meteorologists hated the bears very much.CIt hurts to keep secrets. Keeping something secret is associated with lower well-being, worse health, and less satisfying relationships. Research has linked secret-keeping to increased an
25、xiety, depression, symptoms of poor health, and even the more rapid progression of disease. There is a seemingly obvious explanation for these harms: Hiding secrets is hard work.New research, however, suggests that the harm of secrets doesnt really come from the hiding after all. The real problem wi
26、th keeping a secret is not that you have to hide it, but that you have to live with it, and think about it.The concept of secrecy might evoke(唤起) an image of two people in conversation, with one person actively hiding from the other. Yet, such hiding is actually uncommon. It is our tendency to mind-
27、wander to our secrets that seems most harmful to well-being. Simply thinking about a secret can make us feel unreal. Having a secret return to mind, time and time again, can be tiring. When we think of a secret, it can make us feel isolated and alone.To better understand the harms of secrecy, my col
28、leagues and I first set out to understand what secrets people keep, and how often they keep them. We found that 97 percent of people have at least one secret at any given moment, and people have, on average, 13 secrets. A survey of more than 5,000 people found that common secrets include preferences
29、, desires, issues surrounding relationships, cheating and violations of others trust.Across several studies, we asked participants to assess how frequently they hid their secret during conversations with others, and also how frequently they thought about the secret outside of social communications.
30、We found that the more frequently people simply thought about their secrets, the lower their well-being. The frequency of active hiding when communicating with others, however, had no relationship to well-being.Following up this research, a new paper shows why thinking about secrets is so harmful. T
31、urning the question around, we examined the consequences of telling secrets. We found that when a person tells a secret to a third party, it does not reduce how often they have to hide the secret from others who are still kept in the dark. Rather, it reduces how often their mind wanders toward the s
32、ecret in irrelevant moments.28. According to the passage, which of the following is really harmful?A. Hiding the secrets from others.B. Always keeping the secrets in mind.C. Assessing the frequency of hiding secrets.D. Telling a third party the secrets.29. How did the author do the research with his
33、 colleagues?A. By doing experiments themselves.B. By comparing the participants.C. By analyzing some samples.D. By analyzing the participants replies.30. In the passage, the author mainly intends to tell us .A. whether we should hide the secrets from others B. how we should keep the secrets properly
34、C. what leads to our healthy problemsD. why the secrets we keep are hurting us31. What will probably be talked about in the next paragraph of the passage?A. The proper ways that we can hide the secrets from others.B. The main reasons why we should think more about the secrets.C. The detailed reasons
35、 why telling a secret to a third person can make our mind healthier.D. The correct ways that we can solve our healthy problems successfully in our daily life.DYoung trees dont just grow; they develop a personality and learn more about their environment and how they should best behave in it. They als
36、o help each other out whenever theres trouble.Personality, just as among people,varies among trees. Some are anxious, some bold. On the authors land, there are three oak trees growing close together. One of the oak trees always starts to shed its leaves two weeks earlier than the others. Since they
37、all experience the same temperature, the same soil and the same length of day, such variables cant be the explanation. So whats happening? Well, this tree is simply more careful than the others. Whoever holds onto their leaves longer can do more photosynthesis（光合作用） and store more nutrients. However
38、, the longer a tree keeps its leaves, the higher the risk of injury.Not only do trees make their own decisions; they also learn from their mistakes. A tree, for example, keeping its leaves too long during one year will never make this mistake again. This leads to several other conclusions: trees mus
39、t notice the temperature and the length of the day and be able to save their experiences somewhere. Obviously, trees dont have brains,but it is thought that in the sensitive tips of their roots they keep track of information and experiences.But trees arent only clever when it comes to caring for the
40、mselves. They also support each other whenever theres trouble by giving warnings and even taking care of sick and weak conspecifics with nutrients. For example, one time the author found a very old tree stump. Its insides had rotted a long time ago to topsoil. But the wood on the outside of the stum
41、p was still living. How was this possible? Well, the stump was nourished by its neighbors with nutrients from the root system,and had been for at least 400 years!Why do trees do such a thing? Its simple: its better together. Trees need the forest; it protects them from storms, provides the right mic

To explain trees are quite supportive to each other.D. To prove trees have the same personalities as humans.33.
43、 According to the text,which of the following best describes general features of trees?A. Anxious and bold.B. Smart and adventurous.C. Adaptable and supportive.D. Helpful and well-behaved.34. What does the underlined phrase do such a thing mean?A. Give warnings.B. Offer assistance.C. Depend on other
44、s.D. Provide nutrients.35. Where does this text most probably come from?A. A science book.B. A public lecture.C. An experiment report.D. A travel journal.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。Most of us in China are used to paying for everything with our phones. 36At least,
45、this was the case for Lim Swee Say from Singapore, who found his first experience with Chinese payment methods quite impressive. Lim was waiting in line to buy nuts at a street stall(货摊) in Shanghai and saw other customers show their phone and take the nuts without giving cash. 37 It seems that Sing
46、apore falls behind in mobile payments. Some Chinese tourists find it inconvenient when they have to use cash in Singapore. 38According to Xinhua News Agency, many countries now accept mobile payment services for Chinese tourists, with WeChat Pay covered in 13 overseas countries and regions and Alipa

Its now common to see the familiar green or blue logos in tourist destinations around the world, from a tiny shop in the Scottish Highlands to a huge department store in New York.Mobile payments are now a normal part of life in China, and the trend is sweeping other nations. According to
48、 Forrester Research, in America, mobile payments rose by 37 percent in 2016. 39This may be partly because western mobile payment services require businesses to install expensive equipment before customers can use them. 40 A. While in China, all it takes is a QR code (二维码) and a phone.B. The populari
