18、has always been thought that when it comes to tornadoes (龙卷风), the most peaceful place is the centre: the eye of the storm. But a photo taken this week in the small Canadian town of Three Hills, Alberta, suggests that there is perhaps no place more peaceful than inside the calm mind of Theunis Wesse
19、ls. It all started when Mr Wessels wife, Cecilia, was warned by their nine-year-old daughter that he was cutting grass in their yard when a violent tornado appeared in the distance. When her husband refused to come inside, saying it was moving away from them, Mrs Wessels took a photo to show her par
20、ents the storm. The photo, which has been shared widely on social media, is a masterclass in calmness.In it, the sockless Mr Wessels, dressed casually in summer shorts and sunglasses, is seen never being upset by the disastrous column of cloud. “I took the picture just to show my mum and dad in Sout
21、h Africa, Look, theres a tornado, and now everyone is like, Why is your husband cutting the grass?” Cecilia told the Times Colonist.When asked later about the tornados approach to him, Mr Wessels responded, “I was keeping an eye on it,” seeming as cool as his gardening style and attracting more than
22、 a little respect. “Alberta, Canada,” wrote one admiring Twitter user, “where men face the elements and do what needs to be done.” A writer for Esquire magazine struck a pensive note: “I can understand Theunis,” Peter Wade admitted, “sometimes when the world is raging (肆虐) outside, the only thing yo

Lots of us are using Twitter and Facebook to thumb rides, and not just to school. Its awkward to be refused when you call a f
26、riend and ask for a ride. But with Twitter, you just look for other people heading the same way. It may sound risky, so many teens stay within their own social circles to find rides, and dont branch out beyond friends when asking on Twitter just like me, but to some young people, especially those ta
27、king longer trips, stranger danger is less of a concern.“I think the digital connection of young people is really key, because younger generations grew up sharing things on line, sharing files, photos, music, etc, so theyve been very used to sharing,” said Juliet Schor, a sociology professor at Bost
28、on College. The sharing economy got big during the recession (经济衰退), allowing people to access more goods, services using technology and even to share costs. And that technology, for me, is what the car was for my mom, a gateway to more freedom, like what my friend Earl says, “The symbol of freedom
29、isnt the car any more because theres technology out there connecting you to a car.”According to the researchers at the University of Michigan, 30 years ago, eight in ten American 18-year-olds had a drivers license compared to six in ten today. So its not that surprising that on my 16th birthday I wa
30、snt rushing to get a license but an iPhone.“Driving, for young people, does mean they have to disconnect from their technology, and thats a negative. So if they could sit in the passage side and still be connected, thats going to be a plus.” Schor continued.To me, another plus is that ridesharing re
31、presents something, something much bigger than trying to save money. I see it as evidence that people still depend on each other. My generation shares their cars and apartments the way neighbors used to share cups of sugar. For the system to work, some of us still need our own cars. But until I get
32、my own version of the silver Super Beetle, you can find me on Twitter. 28. The American teens like me, prefer to possess an iPhone as a birthday gift because . A. it is most fashionable and coolB. they are bored with driving cars C. they are fond of being connectedD. it is much cheaper than a car29.
33、 We can learn from the text that _. A. Twitter is a website for teens to make friends and achieve goals B. ridesharing can be seen as a sign that people still count on each other C. driving cars for teens means a plus and connecting with technology D. having a car and cost-sharing symbolize more fre
34、edom for the authors mother 30. Professor Juliet would agree that _. A. young people will sit waiting to be contacted by reading a passage B. sharing economy is bound to be responsible for the recession C. young people tend to share a car with strangers by means of Twitter D. being connected via tec
35、hnology comes first for young people 31. The best title for the passage is probably _.A. Twitter, an Awesome WebsiteB. Cars or iPhoneC. Teens Use Twitter to Thumb RidesD. Cool Teens on the Go DLiving by the forest may be romantic, but living in a city makes you more attractive to the opposite sex if
36、 you are a frog, at least.Increasingly, recent studies have shown significant differences between urban animals and rural creatures from the same species and this makes a lot of sense. Mankind is causing dramatic changes over a wide range of environments and many creatures are slowly adapting to urb
37、an conditions. Just recently, researchers found that some urban spiders are no longer afraid of lights; now, a new study reports that city life makes male frogs more attractive.The authors, led by Wouter Halfwerk from the Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam, compared the “chuck” calls of frogs living in bo
38、th urban areas and forests near the Panama Canal. Previous research had found that creatures, such as birds, frogs, and grasshoppers sing or call differently in noisy urban areas, but it was unclear what the effects of these changes are.“Urbanization can cause species to adjust their sexual displays
39、, because the effectiveness of mating signals is influenced by environmental conditions,” researchers write in the study. “Despite many examples that show that mating signals in urban conditions differ from those in rural conditions, we do not know whether these differences provide a combined reprod
40、uctive and survival benefit.”Now, researchers found that urban frogs “sing” more often and use more complex calls than their rural counterparts. They then recorded these calls and played them back to female frogs in the lab. They found that 75% of the females were more attracted to the more complex
41、urban calls.Its not exactly clear why this happens, though researchers suspect it has a lot to with how safe the environment is. While calling out can help you get a mate, it can also draw in predators. Since cities generally have far fewer predators, frogs are free and safe to let out their sounds.
42、 “It definitely shows that if you change the abundance of predators, parasites(寄生虫) and mates, that induces a strong evolutionary response,” says Halfwerk.32. Which is an example of animals adapting to the urban conditions?A. The frogs in the city can live longer.B. Some urban spiders are used to th
43、e lights.C. The female frogs in the city can attract more male frogs.D. Some creatures in the city begin to increase their calls.33. The difference of urban creatures is_.A. helping these animals find partners easilyB. helping these animals survive in the cityC. having no clear conclusion up to nowD
44、. having powerful abilities to give birth34. Urban frogs are more attractive because of_.A. the pleasant looks B. their smellsC. the ability to catch pests D. their singing35. What is the meaning of the underlined word “predators” in paragraph 6?A. Animals which live on frogs. B. Insects which frogs
45、 like to eat.C. Frogs which have larger size. D. Birds which sing better than rural ones.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。The hula hoop(呼啦圈) can date back to around 1000 BC.
