29、rB “Youre leaving again?” asked my daughter as she saw me packing my carry-on.More than her words, it was her face that pierced my heart -I could see howcrestfallenshe was.“Its only for two nights, “I explained.But that didnt matter to her. It was just one more trip after barely being home for five
30、days. I decided in that moment to travel less whenever possible and I managed to avoid flying altogether for most of the summer. As a result, it was a summer full of discoveries. I realized that my kids really were proud of me. In their time away from me they had learned lessons I couldnt have imagi
31、ned.Recently I began traveling a lot again. But this time it was different, mainly due to the fact that I had seen firsthand that my children value strong female role models. They realize that hard work pays off. Being away from them even for a day at a time in many ways had done them a lot of good.
32、In particular, being a working mom is teaching my daughter how important it is to be independent and that you can follow your dreams.

39、yellow and green that characterizes Morning Glory hot spring at Yellowstone National Park. But it hasnt always looked this way. Using biological, chemical, and optical (of or relating to light) data, scientists have constructed a mathematical model that describes how the spring looks now, and how it
40、 appeared before pollution led to changes in color.Morning Glory was once a deep blue, like the flower its named after. Over the years, the years, however, tourists have throws lucky coins, rocks, and other things into the pool, partially blocking the underground heat source and lowering the tempera
41、ture of thee spring to a range habitable by microbes(微生物)that probably didnt live there before.Pigments(色素)produced by those microbes are responsible, at least in part, for the beautiful yellows, greens, and oranges that now color Morning Glory and other hot pools in Yellowstone. Each species has a
42、preferred temperature. Because the springs are hottest at the center and typically coolest at the edges, an amazing change in color happens, according to Brent Peyton, director of the Thermal Biology Institute at Montana State University.But the colors we see also depend on the way light interacts w
43、ith the water at different depths. The researchers developed a model that could mathematically predict the colors of Morning Glory(and other thermal springs)in the park. They first measured the surface temperature of the pool and the amount of light that was reflected. Then they combined these data
44、wit existing information about the pools physical structure.The resulting model, published in the Journal of Applied Optics, accurately confirmed that Morning Glorys color is dependent not only microbes, but also on the way water absorbs and Scatters(散开)light at different depths. Specifically, in sh
45、allow water, the yellowish color of the pool is most in influenced by the type of microbes present. But as the water gets deeper, the optical effects between light and water become more influential. This is why you see this change from yellow to green as the water gets deeper and why deeper water ap
46、pears greener, according to Paul Nugent, a Ph.D. Student at Montana State University and lead author of the study.61. What is Morning Glory famous for? A. Its green depth. B. Its brilliant colors C. Its high temperatures. D. Its beautiful surroundings.62. What is an effect of the coins and rocks thr
47、own into Moring Glory? A. The water is not as hot as before B. There is much less water in it. C. The spring turns light blue. D. Microbes cannot live in.63. What can we learn from Brent Peyton? A. Most microbes live at the edges of the springs. B. Some microbes feed on pigments in the springs. C. T
48、he temperatures of the spring change frequently D. Different microbes are used to different temperatures.64. The model can be used to_. A. survey hot springs physical structures B. measure springs surface temperatures C. figure out the colors of hot springs D. study the light reflected by water.65.
49、What is the main reason deeper water appears greener? A. The increase in temperatures. B. A special type of microbe in it C. Pigments reduction in the water. D. Lights interaction with the water.D“The Man with the Golden Arm” may sound like the name of some like the name of some superhero in a comic
50、 book. But this name belongs to 78-year-old James Harrison- an Australian man who has donated blood almost every week, saving more than 2 million babies in the process.Harrison told CNN, an American channel, about why he chooses to donate, even though its not the most pleasurable experience: “Never
51、once have I watched the needle go in my arm, I cant stand the sight of blood, and I cant stand pain.”An amazingly unique antibody(抗体)in Harrisons blood makes it a true lifesaver for babies who could be affected by rhesus disease. The condition occurs during some pregnancies, when a woman who has rhe
52、sus-negative blood produces antibodies that destroy her babies cells. This can happen when the baby has the same rhesus-positive blood as the father. Rhesus disease can cause health issues in babies. It can even result in death.Harrisons blood helped physicians develop an injection called Anti-D in
53、the 1960s, which prevents women who have rhesus-negative blood from developing the harmful antibodies while pregnant. After Harrison completes one of his routine donations, his blood can be used to create more vaccines(疫苗).“I started in 1955, two days after I turned 18,” Harrison said when he comple
54、ted his 1,075th donation.As CNN reported, every Anti-D vaccine created in Australia has something to do with a donation from Harrison, who holds the record for most blood donations in Australia.“A number of mothers have come up to me and said, Thank you very much for what youve done, because I now h
55、ave one, two, three healthy children,” Harrison said.Harrisons own daughter, Tracey Mellow ship, had been one of the 17 percent of women who need Anti-D during their pregnancy. The injection helped guarantee her second son would be born healthy.“Dad had always donatedwe knew that,” Mellow ship said.
56、 “But it didnt hit home until I was pregnant and knew the consequences.”66. From the first two paragraphs we can infer that Harrison is _.A. humorous and smartB. brave and unselfishC. friendly but nervousD. optimistic but weak67. Babies affected by rhesus disease_.A. have the same blood type as thei
57、r mothersB. develop the disease after being bornC. cant form blood themselvesD. grow problematic cells68. Harrisons blood can_.A. help patients develop Anti-DB. avoid the risk of rhesus diseaseC. cure rhesus disease affected babiesD. stop babies from producing antibodies69. Before Mellow ship was in
58、jected Anti-D, her family didnt _.A. understand the meaning of Harrisons actB. expect she would have another healthy sonC. realize the high rate of potential rhesus diseaseD. know Harrison held a record for donating blood70. We know form the text that Harrison_. A. loves reading comic books about su
59、perheroes B. has created more than 2 million vaccines C. was awarded a statue with a golden arm D. has donated blood for about 60 years.第II卷非选择题(共35分)第三部分:写作第一节:阅读表达(共5小题;每题2分,满分10分) 阅读下面短文,并按照题目要求用英语回答问题。 The World Health Organization (WTO)has set new dietary guidelines for people around the world.
60、 The guidelines advise people to cut back on their sugar intake to stay healthy. The guidelines do not apply to the sugars in fresh fruits and vegetables or those that are naturally present in milk. According to the WTO, there is no reported evidence of negative effects of consuming those sugars. In
61、stead, the new guidelines focus on “added” or “free” sugars. These include sugars that are added to processed foods and drink such as cookies, candy, and soft drinks. Added sugars are sometimes described as “hidden” sugars. That is because they exist in foods we might not think of as sweets ,such as
62、 honey and ketchup(番茄酱). Health experts advise consumers to look a ingredients on food packages to help make better-informed decisions. In the U. S., adults currently get about 11 to 15% of their calories from added sugars. In Europe, sugar intake varies by country. For adults in Hungary and Norway,
63、 it is about 7%. In Spain and the Untied Kingdom, sugar makes up as much as 17% of adults diets. Kieran Clarke, scientists of the University of Oxford, said, “The trouble is, we really do like sugar in a lot of things. Even if you are not eating lollies(棒棒糖)and candy, you are probably eating a fair
64、amount of sugar.” But Clarke also notes that for those people who cant shake their love for sweets, getting more exercise is a good solution. She said, “If you get enough exercise, you can eat almost anything. But its very hard to avoid large amounts of sugar unless all youre eating is fruits and ve
65、getables.”71. What does the underlined part “cut back on” in Paragraph 1 probably mean?(1 words)72. Where might the added sugars exist according to the text? (no more than 20 words)73. Which countries adults get most sugar intake in Europe?(no more than 10 words)74. What should those people who cant shake their love for sweets do if they want to stay healthy?(no more than 10 words)75. Do you love sugars? Why?
