31、r, in her first collection of poems, Shrines of Upper Austria, explores a different aspect of identity: a personal understanding of national identity the collection received the forward prize for Best First Collection and was on the final list for the T.S. Eliot Prize.Power was born in Newcastle-on-
32、Tyne and raised in Cumbria. She has taken part in a number of performance art and video art projects. She received a Northern Writers Award in 2014 and an Eric Gregory Award from the Society of Authors in 2012. Now she lives in York in northern England.Powers starting point is her grandmother. She c
33、ame to England from Austria as a new bride (新娘) married to a British soldier in 1946, the first year after the end of World War . Imagine the reactions of her British neighbors, and her new British family. Imagine what she had left behind. The grandmothers experiences influenced Power greatly.In Shr
34、ines of Upper Austria, we walk with the poet to see her grandmothers life before Britain. We can learn about the small town where she lived and where “many of the shopkeepers were Jews”, the bodies of water, and buildings that existed when her grandmother lived there power also added some prose (散文)
35、 to the book, which tells us some stories of her grandmothers early life. For example, it tells the stories about how her grandmother was found as a baby and given to a farmer when she was two.The poems in the collection are pieces of a life. We can no more walk in our grandparents shoes than they c
36、an walk in ours. However, we can study old family photographs. We can see pieces of their liveswhere they lived perhaps; where they played as children; what lakes or rivers they swam in. Like Power, we are left with pieces. These pieces dont all make sense, but collectively they show a life.61. Why
37、could Powers book of poems win influential prizes?A. It was a collective work of the Society of Authors.B. It specially focused on national identity.C. It clearly explained the meaning of identity.D. It was about powers real life.62. What can we find in Shrines of Upper Austria?A. The poems by power
38、s grandmother.B. The life and culture in Austria.C. The stories of Powers early life.D. The bodies of water in York.63. What does the author think of the pieces of our grandparents life?A. Meaningful.B. Shocking.C. Heartbreaking.D. Outdated.BNasr Majid started hunting this fall at Blackwater Nationa
39、l Wildlife Refuge (保护区) on the Eastern Shore of Maryland in USA. Hes one of the relatively few new hunters who officials hope will help stop a nearly four-decade decline nationally in what has become a hobby for fewer than 5 percent of Americans.Natural resources and wildlife officials in Maryland a
40、re encouraging hunting of deer, turkeys and some other wild animals, which is believed to be good for the environment. Without hunting, they say, sika deer will overpopulate the wildlife refuge and theyll overeat the bushes and other plants that provide important habitat for birds. On the western sh
41、ore of the Chesapeake Bay, hunting is also important to prevent the spread of diseases such as Lyme.In many families, the hunting tradition has been handed down for generations. But as longtime sportsmen age and children lose interest, the number of hunters in the United States fell by 2 million, fr
42、om 2011 to 2018, to about 11 million.“Everything is changing. Kids are growing up in front of video games and computers instead of going hunting.” said Chris Markin, a hunting specialist for the state natural resources department. “Adults usually focus on working and providing for their families. Th
43、ose pressures are preventing many other potential hunters from going out, and from raising the next generation of hunters.”To avoid such a decline, a new approach is needed. Government agencies and nonprofit groups are now launching mentoring (指导) programs to train more hunters, which not only helps
44、 preserve an industry and a culture but also means more protection for wildlife and their habitats through deer population control and investment.Luckily, there are those still eager to learn, like Majid. He was just looking for an outdoor hobby he could share with his children when he came across t
45、he mentorship program. Now, he feels capable of hunting on his own, but also has someone he can text with questions that pop up. His new pastime has already paid off for himon his second hunt with his mentor, in the last minutes of daylight, he bagged his first deer.64. In this passage, Nasr Majid i
46、s considered as a symbol of _.A. devotionB. braveryC. enthusiasmD. hope65. What can be inferred from Chris Markins words?A. No one is interested in hunting any more.B. The hunting tradition is facing challenges.C. Parents fail to spend enough time with kids.D. Hunting adds to many adults life pressu
47、res.66. What does the underlined words “new pastime” refer to?A. Raising questions.B. Looking for hunters.C. Learning to hunt.D. Sharing a new hobby.67. What is the best title for the text?A. Teach hunters new skillsB. Make Hunting More PopularC. Reduce the pressure of lifeD. Train more skilled hunt
48、ersCRecently, researchers at the University of California carried out a series of experiments, in which they studied toddlers thinking about winners and losers, bullies (欺凌) and victims.In the first experiment, toddlers (学步儿童) watched a scene in which two puppets (木偶) had conflicting goals: One was
49、crossing a stage from right to left, and the other from left to right. The puppets met in the middle and stopped. Eventually one puppet bowed down and moved aside, letting the other one pass by. Then researchers asked the toddlers which puppet they liked. The result: 20 out of 23 toddlers picked the
50、 higher-status puppetthe one that did not bow or move aside. It seems that individuals can gain status for being dominant (占优势的) and toddlers like winners better than losers.But then researchers had another question: Do toddlers like winners no matter how they win? So, researchers did another experi
51、ment very similar to the one described above. But this time, the conflict ended because one puppet knocked the other down and out of the way now when the toddlers were asked who they liked, the results were different: Only 4 out of 23 children liked the winner.These data suggest that children alread
52、y love a winner by the age of 21-31 months. This does not necessarily mean that the preference is inborn: 21 months is enough time to learn a lot of things. But if a preference for winners is something we learn, we appear to learn it quite early.Even more interesting, the preference for winners is n
53、ot absolute. Children in our study did not like a winner who knocked a competitor down. This suggests that already by the age of 21-31 months, childrens liking for winners is balanced with other social concerns, including perhaps a general preference for nice or helpful people over aggressive ones.I
54、n a time when the news is full of stories of public figures who celebrate winning at all costs, these results give us much confidence. Humans understand dominance, but we also expect strong individuals to guide, protect and help others. This feels like good news.68. One of the purposes of the experi
55、ments is to _.A. teach toddlers how to gain higher statusB. offer toddlers a chance to watch a sceneC. observe the process of toddlers solving a conflictD. find out toddlers attitude toward winners and losers69. The toddlers regarded bowing and moving aside as a sign of _.A. obeying rulesB. gaining
56、statusC. giving in to the otherD. showing good manners70. What does the second experiment tell us about toddlers?A. they are excellent learners.B. They are always changeable.C. They show mercy to the loser.D. They value kindness over winning.71. What does the author think of the results of the serie
57、s of experiments?A. Disappointing.B. Encouraging.C. Unexpected.D. Controversial.DWhen it comes to time, people have different comments and the most popular one I have heard about is that we need to balance our time in order to live a more balanced life. We often feel that if we are focused and devot
58、ed, happy and positive, loving and generous, healthy and energetic, then we will be balanced people. And if the pie chart of our daily life has just the right ratios (比率) of work, life, family, health, and service then our time will be balanced.The problem with trying hard for balance is that most p
59、eoples understanding of this state is so different from what balance actually is! Balance is not about walking around with a bunch of positive qualities; its about walking on the tight rope between the poles within us and the circumstances outside of us. Strictly speaking, in order to achieve true b
60、alance, we should accept we may have some shortcomings. We should accept and love the most challenging parts of life because they offer gifts for full, real living.Even though we measure time in a linear (线状的) way, time is and will always be asymmetrical (不均匀的). One moment is not like another, just
61、like each day is different and each tide that rolls in is different from the previous one. This is why it is impossible to balance our time through a pie chart in a time management book. Exploring asymmetrical time allows us to move in line with an unbalanced time and thus regain our relative balanc
62、e. If we stop measuring ourselves against the standards of linear time, we can accept ourselves more fully. Only as we accept the uncertainty in life will new possibilities arise.72. Why does the author think its difficult to achieve balance in life?A. People dont know the true meaning of balance.B.
63、 People may not have enough good qualities.C. People cannot create their pie charts of daily life.D. People fail to realize the qualities they really need.73. In the authors opinion what does a balanced life mean?A. We should arrange our time wisely.B. We should try to believe ourselves.C. We should
64、 learn to improve ourselves and our lives.D. We should accept the bad aspects of ourselves and life.74. What does the last paragraph mainly want to tell us?A. Uncertainty can help build up confidence.B. It is difficult for us to accept ourselves fully.C. There are uncertain things occurring in life.
65、D. New possibilities can help us achieve balance in life.75. What may be the best title for the text?A. The true meaning of timeB. Seeking relative balanceC. Struggle for a balanced lifeD.

69、ept my garden supplies during the long winter.There, on top of a tower of dirt-filled pots, was a flash of green, topped with two of the most unlikely pink flowers youve ever seen. A quick examination showed that, in fact, this was a living, growing plant.How was this possible? I was lost in thought
70、. I couldnt figure out how the plant survived under such environment. The unheated space had been sealed up (被密封) by us all winter, except for the times when we opened the doors to take the tools. It was still cold outside. Could this be one of those garden miracles Id read about?I wondered what hel
