21、d her classmates. She seemed unsure of what to do or say, yet I could see her eyes longing for acceptance. Many students had already decided that her friendship would not be worth the energy required to overcome the awkwardness. Others teased her. Most ignored herexcept for one.Brianna, the class cl
22、own, was making the other students laugh, as usual. “Brianna, do you see Molly down there? Would you mind walking down there and inviting her to come up here with the rest of us?”Brianna sighed. I could tell she didnt want to sacrifice precious minutes of her own recess to do what I was asking of he
23、r, but I also knew her heart. She often thought of others before herself - a rare character for anyone, much less a kid.Knowing this choice was hard for her, I pulled out a D-buck, our class currency. Though bribery (行贿) was not the ideal way to handle this situation, I needed her cooperation.“Here,
24、 Ill pay you for your time.”She offered an insincere smile, grasped the green paper, and headed down the hill.As the rest of the children screamed and laughed, my eyes locked on Brianna as she neared the picnic table. Molly could be difficult, and I wouldnt have been surprised if she sent Brianna ba
25、ck alone, refusing her invitation. When she encouraged herself to a standing position, I sighed with relief.A minute later, I felt a lap on my shoulder. “Here, Mrs. D.” She handed me the D-buck.“Why?” I asked.“I shouldnt keep this.” Her eyes fell to her feet, guilt radiating from her quiet voice. “I

29、x-year-old Kuniako Saito and his team at Cocoa Motors recently introduced to the public the battery-powered“WalkCar”transporter, which is the size of a laptop and resembles a skateboard more than a car. The slender WalkCar is made from aluminum and weighs between two and three kilograms, depending o
30、n whether it is an indoor or outdoor versionSaito expects to see many other uses for his transporter, as he says it has enough power to help people push wheelchairs with ease. The lightweight metal board is stronger than it looks，and can take loads of up to 120kgIt reaches top speeds of 10 kilometer
31、s per hour，for distances of up to 12 kilometers after three hours of charging. Its developer says its also extremely simple to ride. Once the rider stands on it the WalkCar starts automatically, while simply stepping off stops the vehicle. To change direction, the user just shifts their weight. Best
32、 of all，there is no need to find a parking space，because it fits into a small bag when not in useSaito said his studies in electric car motor control systems brought him the idea for the new kind of ride. “I thought, what if we could just carry our transportation in our bags, wouldnt that mean wed a
33、lways have our transportation with us to ride on? And my friends asked me to make one, since I was doing my masters in engineering specifically on electric car motor control systems, ”he said Saito says customers will be able to reserve their own WalkCars from autumn 2017 on the crowdfunding website
34、 Kickstarter. The futuristic skateboard will have a price-tag of around 100,000 Japanese Yen(approx$800 USD).

36、is studies in engineering DThe advice from the disabled DHave you ever noticed tiny raised areas on the branches of a tree? These may have been insects. These small insects feed on tree sap (汁液). Insects on urban trees are notably more abundant than those on rural trees. As a result, urban trees suf
37、fer from heavy infestations (害虫横行), and are often unhealthy or die. To protect and restore urban trees health, we need to determine the factors that make these tree pests more successful in urban habitats.Living organisms interact closely with their environment. The warmer, more drought-stressed tre
38、es harbor more successful pests than cooler, less drought-stressed trees. As cities and natural habitats become hotter and drier, damaging insects will become more abundant on urban trees.Trees within urban forests are valuable economically and for the environmental sustainability (可持续性) of the regi
39、on. More than half of the worlds population lives in cities. Across the globe, people are moving into cities at a faster rate than ever.Rapid growth may turn cities into places with harder conditions. Although cities are primarily made of buildings, roads, parking lots, and vehicles, there are still
40、 plants in them. The trees within a city are referred to as the urban forest. Urban forests offer very big benefits to human and environmental health. They improve air and water quality, provide habitat for wildlife, cool down temperatures and beautify our environment. They make cities livable.Howev
41、er, being a city tree is not easy. Heat released by human activities is trapped in cities. As a result, temperatures in urban areas are often warmer than their surrounding rural areas. We call this urban warming or the urban heat island effect. Urban habitats are mostly made of surfaces of asphalt (
42、沥青) and concrete. These surfaces reduce the amount of rainwater that reaches tree roots. As a result, urban forests may suffer, which can negatively affect people and the environment.What can we do to restore urban forests? Regular irrigation when possible may help keep pest populations under contro
43、l. Planting tree species that are suitable to handle heat and drought stress would also reduce the occurrence of insect pest outbreaks.32. What makes tree pests more successful in the city than in rural areas?A. The warmer and rainy habitat.B. The hotter and drier habitat.C. The cooler and drier hab
44、itat. D. The hotter and rainy habitat.33.

Urban Trees Are in Great DangerD. Lets Act for the Protection of Urban Trees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
46、余选项。What Is Fear?Fear is a basic feeling arising when we feel threatened, and can have physical symptoms such as sweaty hands and an increased heart rate. 36 On the upside.Fear means growth.Fear tells us we are moving towards the edge of our comfort zone. We are doing something unfamiliar and learni
47、ng new skills. This means we are growing, and growth means that once we go beyond the uncomfortable bit, we will be stronger, better and brighter than before! 37 Things are never as bad as they seem.In most cases, the thing we fear is never as bad as we think it will be. When we are trying to make a
48、 decision to do something new, we lack the perspective to sec further than the familiar range. 38 No. If you look back on some of the scary things youve had to do in the past, you would now say, “What was so scary about this?!”We are always stronger than we think!Fear can teach us so much about our
49、personal powers. There is no other feeling like the victory you feel that makes you realize you won. 39 Who cares? You made the leap! This will build your confidence! Think of your yoga practice. We CAN stand on our hands, even though we sometimes doubted it. And it will make us realize that we are
50、so strong!Fear is part of life, and doesnt need to be eliminated. 40 We can welcome it; we can cope with it and proceed in spite of it. The best decisions in life are rarely the easiest ones. Or rather, they may seem easy, but often come with fear. To quit your job is not easy, but if you know its t
51、he right thing to do, you know what you need to do. Following your heart will not come without fear, but it will come with big rewards.A. Face the feeling of fear bravely.B. And everything unfamiliar is scary?C. Catch every opportunity to be successful.D. We dont need to remove fear from our lives.E
52、. So when you feel fear approaching, say thank you!F. You succeeded, even though not every try is perfect.G. But it can be a useful feeling when it comes to keeping us safe.第三部分: 英语知识运用（共两节， 满分45分）第一节: 完形填空（共20 小题；每小题1.5分，满分30分）阅读下面短文，从短文后所给各题的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。Strength and g
