16、 go across the Drake Passage in a regular cruise.BPoet William Stafford once said that we are defined more by the detours in life than by the narrow road toward goals. I like this image. But it was quite by accident that I discovered the deep meaning of his words. For years we made the long drive fr
17、om our home in Seattle to my parents home in Boise in nine hours. We traveled the way most people do: the fastest, shortest, easiest road, especially when I was alone with four noisy, restless kids who hate confinement (限制) and have strong opinions about everything. Road trips felt risky, so I would
18、 drive fast, stopping only when I had to. We would stick to the freeways and arrive tired. But then Banner, our lamb, was born. He was rejected by his mama days before our planned trip to Boise. I had two choices: leave Banner with my husband, or take him with me. My husband made the decision for me
19、. That is how I found myself on the road with four kids, a baby lamb and nothing but my everlasting optimism to see me through. We took the country roads out of necessity. We had to stop every hour, let Banner shake out his legs and feed him. The kids chased him and one another. Theyd get back in th
20、e car breathless and energized, smelling fresh from the cold air. We explored side roads, catching grasshoppers in waist-high grass. Even if we simply looked out of the car windows at baby pigs following their mother, or fish leaping out of the water, it was better than the best ride down the freewa
21、y. Here was life. And new horizons We eventually arrived at my parents doorstep astonishingly fresh and full of stories.I grew brave with the trip back home and creative with my disciplining technique. On an empty section of road, everyone started quarreling. I stopped the car, ordered all kids out
22、and told them to meet me up ahead. I parked my car half a mile away and read my book in sweet silence. Some road trips are by necessity fast and straight. But that trip with Banner opened our eyes to a world available to anyone adventurous enough to wander around and made me realize that a detour ma

26、a Monaco doesnt spend her summers doing the usual teenage work, like working at the mall. Instead,she s studying.It used to be that a summer job was considered a teenage thing. Today, Monaco , who has never had a summer job, is part of growing trend teenagers focusing on their studies, even during t
27、he summer. Thats down from 72% of Americans aged 16 to 19 who worked in July of 1978, according to the U. S. Bureau of Labor Statistics.Fierce competition, older workers returning to the workforce and weak economic growth are all adding to the decrease of teenagers in the workforce. But as schoolwor
28、k grows increasingly heavy and homework eats up more time, data suggest the biggest reason why some teens wont be working this summer is that they simply dont have time.For college - bound teens, some teachers even advise students not to waste time on a summer job. “ Some of my students only have ab
29、out six weeks off in the summer,” said Shannon Reed, a lecturer at the University of Pittsburgh and a former high school English teacher.” I could never advise that they get jobs during that short break. ”Young people who dont work may miss out on valuable skills that they11 need control and help pe
30、ople learn to deal with adult situations. But Monaco, who plans to attend Harvard, isnt fazed by her lack of work experience. “Maybe I have missed out on a couple of life skills, “she said. “ But I dont think it will harm me in way .” 28What is the trend of American teenagers?AThey are becoming lazy
31、.BThey are fond of doing holiday jobs.CThey are focusing more on studies than on jobs. DThey are becoming particular about (挑剔)holiday jobs 29What is the third paragraph mainly about?AThe reasons for teenagers giving up work.BThe fierce competition teenagers face.CThe structure of Americas workforce
32、.DThe effects of America9 s weak economy.30Whats Shannon Reeds attitude towards the new trend?Auncaring.Bfavorable.Cworried.Ddoubtful.31What does the underlined word “fazed” in the last paragraph mean?Asupported. Bhelped. Cupset. Dconfused.DMicroplastics are everywhere in our environment. Its hardly
33、 surprising that the tiny fragments have also been found in humans. A new study shows that Americans are consuming as many as 121,000 particles each year.Measuring 50 to 500 microns in length, microplastics come from a variety of sources, including large plastics that break down into smaller and sma
34、ller pieces. Therefore, much remains unknown about the common existence of these materials within the human body, as well as their impact on human health.Hoping to fill in some of these gaps, a research team led by Kieran Cox, a PhD candidate at the University of Victoria, looked at 26 papers assess
35、ing the amount of microplastics in commonly consumed food items, among which are seafood, sugars, salts, honey, alcohol and water. The team also evaluated the potential consumption of microplastics through inhalation(吸入)using previously reported data on microplastic concentrations in the air and the
36、 Environmental Protection Agencys reported respiration rates. Based on these data, the researchers calculated that our annual consumption of microplastics via food and drink ranges from 39,000 to 52,000 particles. When microplastics taken in through inhalation are taken into account, the range jumps
37、 to between 74,000 and 121,000 particles per year.The authors of the study found that people who drink exclusively from plastic water bottles absorb an additional 90,000 microplastics each year, compared to 4,000 among those who only consume tap water. This shows that small decisions, over the cours
38、e of a year, really matter and have an impact. Cox says. The new study, according to its authors, was the first to investigate the accumulative human exposure to microplastics. But in all likelihood, the research tells only a small part of the entire story. Collectively, the food and drink that the
39、researchers analyzed represent 15 percent of Americans caloric intake. The team could not account for food groups like fruits, vegetables and grains because there simply is not enough data on their microplastic content.For those worried about microplastic consumption, cutting down bottled water is a
40、 good place to start. But to the heart of the problem, we have to stop producing and using so much plastic.32What makes it difficult to know microplastics commonly exist in the human body?AThe quality. BThe quantity. CThe shape. DThe size.33How did Kieran Coxs team calculate the potential consumptio
41、n of microplastics?ABy studying papers.BBy comparing the impacts.CBy analyzing the data.DBy conducting experiments.34Which of the following is true according to the text?ADrinking less plastic bottled water helps to take in fewer microplastics.BThe study is among the earliest to investigate human ex
42、posure to microplastics.CCoxs team gained comprehensive information of microplastics taken in by humans.DPeople consume 74,000 to 121,000 particles of microplastics per year from food and drink.35What is the best title for the text?AThe Potential Problems of Microplastics BMicroplastics Coming From

74、s class on English words. I hope that all of you can hear me. If not, please let me know. I am Prof. John Morris. Ill be your teacher for the next 13 weeks. As you can probably tell, this is one of popular and crowded classes. Indeed, every time these courses are offered, this room is very full. Why
75、 is that? Well, in order to use the English language, its very important to have at least a basic understanding of how words are formed. Just to mention one figure, and there are many. There are about one million words in English. If you are an English learner, you might wonder how you can possibly
76、remember all of these words. Well, for one thing you dont have to. No native speaker exists who knows all of the words in the English language. Besides, there are shortcuts. Shortcuts? Yes, for example, if you know how words are formed by using parts of words from other languages, such as Greek and French, youll understand a good number of English words when you first come across them. Let me put it this way. Knowing the rules will help you to master a large number of words. This is probably the No. 1 reason why this class is so popular.高2018级9月月考试题第16页,总16页
