It showed that more hate crimes were carried out in the United States last y
11、ear. There was an increase in incidents motivated by intolerance against Jews, Muslims and LGBT people, among others.The termLGBT includes lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender people.There were more than 6,100 reported incidents of hate crimes in 2016, up from more than 5,800 the year before. The
12、FBI made this report based on data submitted by law enforcement(执行) agencies across the country. The new data follows a trend from 2015. The trend shows that the largest share of victims last year, nearly six in 10, were targeted(为目标) due to intolerance against the victims race or ethnicity.The numb
13、er of hate crimes caused by intolerance against a persons race or ethnic background rose to 3,489 from 3,310 a year earlier, the FBI report said. Half of those hate crimes were caused by racism against African-American people. One in five victims were targeted because of their religion. One in six w
14、ere due to sexual orientation, the report said.The FBI data gains a general look at hate crime in the nation. But this report is considered incomplete because not all areas report their hate crimes. According to the FBI, 88 percent of agencies choosing to participate in the hate crime statistics pro
15、gram “reported that no hate crimes occurred” in their areas last year.Speaking earlier this year after a series of threats targeting Jewish schools and community centers, former FBI director James B. Comey admitted this. He said that the bureau needs to do a better job of tracking and reporting hate
16、 crime. Only then can we understand what is happening and how to stop it.“Hate crime is different from other crime,” Comey said in prepared remarks delivered in May. “They damage at our sense of self, our sense of belonging. The end result is loss: loss of trust, loss of dignity, and in the worst ca
17、se, loss of life.”The FBI report, which collects information on the offenders in the hate crimes tallied(总计) last year, found that the largest share, nearly half were white. About a quarter of the people who carried out hate crimes were African-American.Four in 10 of the people identified as “known
18、hate crime offenders” committed simple assault. This could mean a threat of violence or causing a minor injury. Nearly a quarter committed aggravated(=serious) assault, which is more serious and often involves the use of a deadly weapon. The report also identified more than 1,600 people who committe
19、d hate crimes by damaging, vandalizing or trying to destroy property.21. The author emphasizes the situation of hate crimes mainly by using _.A. examples B. statistics C. comparison D. quotation22. Why is hate crime different from other crimes in the article?A. The article highlights that hate crime
20、s are more likely to end with injuries.B. The article emphasizes that hate crimes target peoples sense of belonging.C. The article explains that hate crimes are tracked more often than other crimes.D. The article shows that hate crimes occur more often in minority communities.23. Which of the follow
21、ing are the results of hate crimes? _.violence or injuries loss of dignity or life damage to property use of deadly weaponsA. B. C. D. 24. Whats the genre of this passage?A. News report.B. Argumentation.C. Description.D. Research report.BEducation appears to protect older adults especially women, ag
22、ainst memory loss, according to a study by investigators at Georgetown University Medical Center.The Study tested declarative memory in 704 older adults (58-98 years of age). Declarative memory refers to our ability to remember events, facts and words, such as where you put your keys or the name of
23、that new neighbor. The investigators found that their memory performance became progressively worse with aging. However, more years of early-life education countered these losses, especially in women.For example, the declarative memory abilities of an 80-year-old woman with a bachelors degree would
24、be as good as those of a 60-year-old woman with a high school education. So, four extra years of education make up for the memory losses from 20 years of aging.“Simply said, learning brings about learning.” says the studys senior investigator, Michael Unman. “Since learning new information in declar
25、ative memory is easier if it is related to knowledge we already have, more knowledge from more education should result in better memory abilities, even years later,” adds the studys lead author, Jana Reifegerste.“Evidence suggests that girls often have better declarative memory than boys, so educati
26、on may lead to greater knowledge gains in girls,” says Ullman. “Education may thus particularly benefit memory abilities in women, even years later in old age.”The study tested individuals in a non-Western population. Participants varied in the number of years of education, from none at all to gradu
27、ate studies. Future research is needed to test whether the findings generalize to other populations, Ullman says.“These findings may be important, especially considering the rapidly aging population globally,” Reifegerste says. “The results argue for further efforts to increase access to education.”
28、“Education has also been found to delay the beginning of Alzheimers disease,” Ullman says. “We believe that our findings may shed light on why this occurs.”25. The underlined “counter” in Paragraph 2 probably means_.A. cancelB. changeC. replaceD. reduce26. What does the underlined word “it” in Parag
29、raph 4 refer to?A. New information.B. Declarative memory.C. Former education.D. Better memory ability.27. The research findings may help .A. slow down the process of agingB. promote the development of educationC. advance the study of Alzheimers diseaseD. ensure the equal rights of womens education28
30、. The passage mainly talks about that .A. declarative memory abilities fail with agingB. women should try to obtain a bachelors degreeC. learning regularly helps improve old adults memoryD. early-life education helps prevent memory loss in old ageC We never knew what Walter was, but we called him an
31、 idiot (白痴). We called him that without knowing if he really was as foolish and as stupid as an idiot.But grandmother liked all sorts of people. She was interested in people no one else loved.

36、dmother was almost finished reading one day, when Walter stopped her.“Mrs. Gorman, I have a girl, a girl like you always talking.”“Isnt that wonderful, tell me about her, is she nice?”“I like her very much.”“Well, she must be. Whats her name.”“I forgot. I told her my name was Walter.”“Would you be k

And you must promise me that you will always be a gentleman.”After that,
38、 Grandmother read “How to Choose the Right Wedding Ring and How to be prepared for Marriage?” She seemed to be in a hurry as if Walter might get married before she had finished his education.
