The huge waves knocked me down and swept over me.The pool was quiet.I was afraid of going in all alone,so I sat

18、on the side of the pool to wait for others. Then came a big boy.He yelled,Hi,Skinny!How d you like to be ducked?With that he picked me up and threw me into the deep end.I landed in a sitting position, and swallowed water.But I was not frightened out of my wits-when my feet hit the bottom,I would mak

25、e was a school teacher named Marjorie Hurd. When I stepped off a ship in New York Harbor in 1949, I was a nine-year-old war refugee, who had lost my mother and was coming to live with the father I did not know. My mother, Eleni Gatzoyiannis, had been imprisoned and shot for sending my sisters and me

26、 to freedom.I was thirteen years old when I entered Chandler Junior High. Shortly after I arrived, I was told to select a hobby to pursue during“club hours.” The idea of hobbies and clubs made no sense to my immigrant ears, but I decided to follow the prettiest girl in my class. She led me into the

27、presence of Miss Hurd, the school newspaper adviser and English teacher.A tough woman with salt-and pepper hair and determined eyes, Miss Hurd had no patience with lazy bones. She drilled us in grammar, assigned stories for us to read and discuss, and eventually taught us how to put out a newspaper.

28、 Her introduction to the literary wealth of Greece gave me a new perspective on my war-torn homeland, making me proud of my origins. Her efforts inspired me to understand the logic and structure of the English language. Owing to her inspiration, during my next twenty-five years, I became a, journali

29、st by profession.Miss Hurd retired at the age of 62. By then, she had taught for a total of 41 years. Even after her retirement, she continually made a project of unwilling students in whom she spied a spark of potential. The students were mainly from the most troubled homes, yet she alternately bul

30、lied and charmed them with her own special brand of tough love, until the spark caught fire.Miss Hurd was the one who directed my grief and pain into writing. But for Miss Hurd, I wouldnt have become a reporter. She was the one who sent me into journalism and indirectly caused all the good things th

31、at came after.28. What does the underlined sentence in Paragraph 2 most probably mean?A. Hobbies and clubs did not interest the author.B. The author turned a deaf ear to joining clubs.C.

34、e author became a journalist. B. The importance of inspiration in ones life.C. The teacher who shaped the authors life. D. Factors contributing to a successful career. DShinrin-yoku means “forest bathing”. Forest bathing doesnt mean you take bath in the forest; rather, you simply go for a walk in th

35、e woods or a city park, where you slacken by using all your senses to experience nature.Yoshifumi Miyazaki, from Chiba University, is among a growing number of scientists who have begun studying the science behind the effects of nature on human health. In his book Shinrin-yoku: The Japanese Art of F

36、orest Bathing, Miyazaki explains the techniques of forest bathing.Miyazaki has an interesting theory about why shinrin-yoku is so effective. He points out that for more than 99.99% of the time, humans have lived in a natural environment. In fact, in 1800, only 3% of the worlds population lived in ci

37、ties, and by 2019, this figure reached 54%. This is only going to get worse; officials predict that by 2050, 66% will live in cities.This suggests we live in our modern society with bodies that are still used to the natural environment, he writes in the book, because “genes cannot change over just a

38、 few hundred years”. The science behind the research studies he presents in the book makes a convincing case that forest bathing is an effective method for reducing stress in todays world.Now city planners are becoming increasingly aware of the importance of nature and are creating new kinds of “par

39、ks” out of empty spaces. Therere also more city gardens where people can grow vegetables. For kids, kitchen gardens in schools are becoming popular. As Miyazaki stresses, you dont have to find a formal park or garden to practice shinrin-yoku. Instead, you can enjoy the effects of nature wherever the

40、rere plants.Better yet, he says, we can bring nature closer to where we spend most of our time. Miyazakis research has shown that just increasing the amount of plants in a room can affect the relaxation benefits of the room. Whats more, even when people simply look at flowers, their bodies relax and

41、 stress levels decrease.32. What does the underlined word in Paragraph mean?A. Behave.B. Entertain.C. Predict.D. Relax.33. How does the author mainly develop the third paragraph?A. By giving examples.B. By listing figures.C. By making remarks.D. By presenting research findings.34. Why does forest ba

42、thing work effectively according to Miyazaki?A. Human genes can change easily.B. Nature is part of the modern society.C. Human bodies are accustomed to nature.D. People can always calm down in nature.35. Which of the following will Miyazaki agree on forest bathing?A. It is easy to operate.B. It is m

43、eant for gardeners.C. It is unaffordable in the city.D. It is inconvenient to practice.第二节(共5小题;每小题2.5分,满分12.5分)阅读下面短文,从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。You probably know that exercise is good for you. Studies show that it can prevent many major health conditions,including cognitive decline,diabete

44、s, certain cancers and more. 36 Our lives are completely full. We may have children,aging parents, jobs, partners,and community,says Barbara Hannah Grufferman, author of The Best of Everything After 50.If you dont have a regular exercise plan,dont worry! There are simple things you can do toget more

45、 exercise, no gym membership or hours of commitment required.Walk-and make it countEven if youre not in shape, you can likely walk. And thats good news, because many studies illustrate that its one of the best things we can do for our bodies. Grufferman suggests getting a pedometer(计步器),whether its

46、a simple mechanical one, or a FitBit or Jawbone. 37 And then,start walking faster and longer-most experts recommend walking 10,000 steps a day.Reduce sittingYouve probably heard,sitting is the new smoking.Well,this means that loads of research has shown that sitting for extended periods of time can

51、ected effects on our worlds forests. When temperatures rise, trees close their skins to 41 the loss of water, and this, in turn, slows down the 42 of photosynthesis(光合作用). As a result, these trees are shorter and grow slowly, as well as have a 43 death rate.Climate change also increases the 44 of dr

52、oughts and wildfires. After wildfires, it takes a while for the forest systems to 45 , and in some cases, the forests are 46 permanently. Trees that are stressed are also 47 to attacks by bacteria(细菌). In tropical forests, vines(藤蔓植物)that use the trees as 48 can often choke the trees and rob them of

53、 nutrients. Finally, humans have 49 the forest landscape through cutting down trees. When trees are replanted on the soil, they will never grow as large as the 50 trees that were cut down.As these forests disappear, species that once called them home are forced to change, 51 the variety of those sys

58、r computer or even pencil and paper? People in China have used an ancient counting tool 57 (perform) mathematical operations. The Chinese calculators name is “suanpan”, but it is known 58 “abacus” in English. Invented by Liu Hong, abacus is one of the symbols of Chinese peoples wisdom 59 (date) back

61、n abacus is practically faster, since it has a 64 (good) “keyboard” than the Western calculators.
