18、care more about how they look than how they feel.Ishikawa Yumi worked eight-hour shifts in a funeral parlour(殡仪馆), always in heels, toes bleeding. Her employer insisted. Why do we have to hurt our feet at work, when men can wear flat shoes? she complained on Twitter. The tweet exploded. Encouraged,
19、she gathered 18, 800 signatures on a petition(请愿书)calling for a ban on employers requiring women to wear high heels, which she submitted to the government last June. Ms. Ishikawa became the face of the KuToo campaign-a pun on Japanese words for shoes (kutsu) and pain (kutsuu), with a response to the
20、 MeToo movement.More than 60% of Japanese women with jobs have been forced to squeeze their feet into heels at work or have witnessed colleagues having to, according to a survey. Female staff at Takashimaya, a department store, must parade around the shop in 5cm heels.Dress codes at many Japanese fi
21、rms are strict. Some ban glasses for women(but not men), for fear that they are unattractive. This is especially unreasonable for those who find contact lenses(隐形眼镜)uncomfortable. Japanese bosses, who tend to be older men, often expect their female employees to endure it.The government has dug in it
22、s heels. A former labor minister, who received Ms. Ishikawas petition last year, insists that wearing high heels at work is necessary and appropriate. The petition itself has received no official response to date.But Japanese companies are slowly responding to KuToo. In late March Japan Airlines ann
23、ounced that its female flight attendants can kick off their heels and swap skirts for trousers if they choose. All three big mobile-phone operators have relaxed their rules on heels.

Skeptical.CSelf-driving cars may sound like something from a futuristic sci-fi novel. However, with advanced trials expected from 2021, they are a
27、 lot closer to reality than you may think. The introduction of self-driving cars could have a major impact on how older adults go about their daily lives. It is hoped these cars will help reduce the social isolation and loneliness we often experience as we get older.Connected and automated vehicles
28、(also known as CAVs), are vehicles that can perform many of the functions of todays human drivers in the future. Vehicles can connect to the internet to provide drivers with information on road, traffic and weather conditions. They can also take over limited parts of the driving task, for example, u
29、sing advanced emergency braking to help avoid crashes and adaptive. cruise control(自适应巡航控制)to increase fuel efficiency and reduce driving tiredness.Aware of the potential benefits of the technology-from improving road safety and reducing traffic jams, to enabling greater travel independence, the UK
30、government has been playing an active role in encouraging the technology. Indeed, it has committed to spending over 200 million on research and development and testing infrastructure(基础设施)to accelerate the delivery of safe and secure automated vehicles. The government is also taking big steps toward
31、s establishing how our laws and regulations might need to change to support the safe use of self-driving cars.Meanwhile, insurance isnt as big a problem as it may first seem. Last year the government created new insurance rules for self-driving cars. The driver of an automated vehicle must get insur
32、ance that covers them when they are in control and when they hand control to their self-driving car. The insurer would pay compensation(赔偿) if the automated vehicle caused a crash, and then recover costs from whoever was responsible-and that could include the vehicle maker.28. According to the passa

35、 pay when a crash is caused by CAVs.31. What can be a suitable title for the passage?A. CAVs Are on the Way B. Good News for the OldC. UK, the First Country to Develop CAVs D. Self-driving Cars, a Revolutionary InventionDThis week Xingliang Zhang of Northwest University in China reports in Science t
36、he discovery of a new site full of soft-bodied animals that have never been seen before.For soft-bodied animals to be preserved, something disastrous must take place. In the case of the worlds two most famous Cambrian(寒武纪)sites, the Burgess Shale accumulation in Canada and the Chengjiang site, this
37、disaster was a series of storms that dumped vast quantities of mud upon a community of animals, burying them alive.The new site that Dr Zhang is reporting, known as Qingjiang, is similar to the others in that the animals seem to have been killed by a sudden mud burial. However, that is where the sim
38、ilarities end.Qingjiang has produced over 20, 000 specimens(样本)thus far. Of these, 4, 351 have been properly analysed and are thought to represent around 100 groups of creatures. Dr Zhang and his colleagues estimate that 54 of these groups have never been seen before.There are some familiar animals
39、like cnidarians(刺细胞动物), but these also raise quite a lot of questions. Cnidarians exist widely in modern oceans and have simplistic bodies that suggest they evolved early during the rise of animal life. Given this, it was expected that cnidarians would be common in the sedimentary layers when the Bu
40、rgess Shale and Chengjiang sites were first unearthed. But precisely the opposite proved true.Qingjiang surprised Dr Zhang by being loaded with spectacularly well-preserved members of this soft-bodied group. Containing everything from delicate comb jellies to the medusae(水母), Qingjiang reveals that
41、these animals were well established at the time and rapidly multiplying in some environments. Precisely what these environmental differences were though, remains the subject of considerable inquiry. Anyway, the discovery of the fossils could make clear the diversity of extinct creatures as well as t
42、heir connection with animals in modem times, said Zhao Fangchen, a researcher of Chinese Academy of Sciences.32. What is the most probable reason of those soft-bodied animals being so well-preserved?A. Existing widely in some environments. B. Being buried alive by a sudden mud.C. Being abandoned dur
43、ing evolution. D. Being well-established at the time.33. In what way is Qingjiang site different from others?A. 100 groups of creatures were found in Qingjiang site for the first time.B. Cnidarians were common in Burgess Shale and Chengjiang sites.C. Cnidarians existed in large numbers in Qingjiang
44、site.D. The animals were killed by something disastrous.34. What can we learn about cnidarians from the passage?A. They became extinct because of sudden mud burials.B. The environmental differences of their existence are clear now.C. Their bodies are so simplistic that they can be easily wiped out.D
45、. They developed at the beginning of the appearance of animal life.35. What is the main purpose of this passage?A. To bring us some knowledge about Qingjiang site.B. To display the diversity of extinct water creatures.C. To illustrate the significance of archaeology.D. To distinguish Qingjiang site
46、from others.第二节(共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5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。Sten Kirkbak, father of four and co-founder of XPLORA, shares his thoughts on how parents can balance screen time with playtime.Establish rules around screen time early onBefore giving your child their first smartphone, ma
47、ke sure that both you and your child learn about digital responsibility so that your child can fully understand and respect these boundaries. 36 They include not responding to texts from unknown numbers, never sharing their personal information online or with anyone they dont know, among others.Make
48、 a contract for the whole family to agree to 37 It is a good way to better establish consistency, clarity and respect around screen time for both of you. It could cover everything from specific times when digital devices are off-limits to all family members, to agreeing on a selection of games that
49、can be played without supervision.What about parental controls?When your child first begins to use their smartphone, establishing parental controls is a good idea. 38 But be sure to explain your reasoning for your controls to your child, so that they understand why they cant have access to some thin
50、gs. 39 Telling your child to avoid screens if you are constantly attached to one is likely to result in tension and frustration. As a parent, its important to be a good role model for your child, not only with regards to technology but within everyday life.Reinforce the value of physical playI recom

Suddenly something caught his eye-a large 60-
65、year-old man balancing on the four-foot-high railing(栏杆)that guarded the path from the water. As he got closer to the scene, the man took a step forward and jumped into the dark, rough riser below. Messina rushed to the railing to find that the man was struggling in the water, clearly unable to swim
66、. If he had intended to kill himself that morning, he had now changed his mind. The jumper screamed crazily for help as the rapids pulled him away from the seawall(防波堤). Other joggers also heard the mans calling. John Green, now 31, immediately dropped his phone and keys on land, along with his snea
67、kers, and jumped in the cold river. People had called the police, but it was unclear when theyd get there, says Green, a commercial insurance broker. I just reacted. Soon after that, Messina joined him in the river.The flow was rapid while the temperature was freezing. Reaching to the jumper seemed
68、to be a nearly impossible task for the two rescuers. Luckily, just as the jumper was losing strength, Green grabbed hold of him. The pair were about 30 yards from the seawall when Messina caught up with them. They stabilized the man, with Messina supporting his back and Green holding him up from eit
69、her side. He was unresponsive but not unconscious.As the men made their way toward the concrete seawall that stretched for blocks in each direction, Green had an awful realization: With the water flowing a good eight feet below the lip of the wall and no ladder or dock(码头)in sight, there was no way
70、out of the river. Whats worse, the jumper, who was six foot two and weighed around 260 pounds, was deadweight in his rescuers arms, which meant they could use only their legs to support themselves in the water.Paragraph 1: A rescue boat is on its way, someone shouted to them.Paragraph 2: However, they encountered a new threat: The flow created by the rapids was sucking them under the boat.注意：1.续写词数应为150左右；2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。A rescue boat is on its way, someone shouted to them.However, they encountered a new threat: The flow created by the: rapids was sucking them under the boat.
