17、ob DylanC. Visit New York Public LibraryD.

18、t get yourself a basket from that pile over there and start filling.”It took me three wall-to-wall searches before I found the first item on my list a pork can be placed between boxes of cereal and bread. Next up was toilet paper, found under the daily newspaper, and Band-Aids, found next to the fac
19、e cream. The store was a puzzle, but it held some surprises too. I found a new Superman comic behind the peanut butter. I visited Miss Bee a couple of times a week that summer. Sometimes she short-changed me. Other times she overcharged or sold me an old newspaper instead of a current one. Going to
20、the store was more like going into battle. I left my Grandmas house armed with my list memorized to the letter and marched into Miss Bees like General Patton marching into North Africa. All summer long she found ways to trip me up. No sooner had I learned how to pronounce bicarbonate of soda (小苏打) a
21、nd memorized its location on the shelf than Miss Bee rearranged the shelves and made me hunt for it all over again. By summers end, however, the shopping trip that had once taken me an hour was done in 15 minutes. The morning I was to return to Brooklyn, I stopped in to tell her that she was mean. T
22、o my amazement she laughed and said. “Well, I dont care! Each of us is put on this earth for a reason. I believe my job is to teach every child I meet the life lessons to help them. Think what you will, but when you get older youll be glad our paths crossed!” I thought the idea was absurd until one
23、day my daughter came to me with homework troubles. “Its too hard,” she said. “Could you finish my math problems for me?”“If I do it for you how will you ever learn to do it yourself?” I said. Suddenly, I was back at that general store where I had learned the hard way to tally up (结算) my bill along w
24、ith the cashier. As my daughter went back to her homework, I wondered: Had Miss Bee really taught me something all those years ago? I took out some scrap paper and started writing.24.

25、 all the items on the list.B. Miss Bee didnt treat her kindly.C. Her grandmother asked her to buy too many things.D. The store was in disorder and she was not familiar with the shop.25.

Things can be learned in daily routinesCThink plants are just boring green things that you use for food and decoration. Think again! Plants are able t
29、o do some pretty awesome things that youre probably totally unaware of.Researchers have discovered that plants have the ability to communicate with an underground network made up of fungus (真菌) , which serves the plants in many ways. Tomato plants use the fungus web to warn each other of their own u
30、nhealthy conditions. Trees connected through the fungus network could move nutrients (养分) to and from each other. It is believed that larger trees move nutrients to smaller ones to help them to survive.Not only that, but they can also damage unwelcome plants by spreading poisonous chemicals through
31、the fungus. It sounds like the plant world had the Internet before we did.Some plants have a rather impressive line of defense against being eaten. When sensing they are being swallowed, they give off a chemical into the air that attracts the insects natural enemy. The enemy attacks the bug, thus sa
32、ving the plants. This is basically the plant kingdom version of getting your older brother to beat up that kid who steals your lunch money.You might be aware that humans and animals have an internal clock. But did you know that plants also have this clock? This means they can prepare for certain tim
33、es of day just like we do. Is it because they can react to light at sunrise? In a study, scientists found that plants use the sugars they produce to keep time, which help to regulate the genes responsible for the plants own internal clock. So, in a sense, wake up with petunias (矮牵牛) is just as valid
34、 as wake up with the chickens.Nature is full of surprises. So for those of you who didnt know the wonders of plants, now you do.28.How many ways does the network of fungus serve the plants?A. Two.B. Three. C. Four.D. Five.29.What does the underlined words your older brother in Paragraph 4 refer to?A

The sugars produced by itself. B. Its own genes.C. The time of sunrise. D. Its response to light.31.What is the authors purpos
36、e in writing the text?A. To show his love of different plants.B. To share his study on some awesome plants.C. To introduce the unknown abilities of plants.D. To make people aware of plant protection.DIn ancient times, our ancestors relied on stars to guide them on a clear night. Today, we have navig
37、ational systems to help us find our way, with the latest being the Beidou Navigation Satellite System(BDS).The BDS is entirely built by Chinese engineers. With the launch of the last satellite from the Xichang Satellite Launch Center on June 23, the global network of 59 satellites has been completed
38、. On July 31, Beidou started providing full-scale global services. Its difficult to imagine the great impact those satellites, orbiting the Earth，have on our daily lives. When you unlock one of Hellobikes bicycles，you are using the BDS. The popular bike, sharing company came out with two new bike mo
39、dels this year that are equipped with the positioning service. “The intelligent lock on each bike receives Beidou satellite signals and sends positioning information to the data center, which will help collect big data on the bikes and estimate users riding demands in advance according to the data.”
40、 Chu Yiqun, a manager of Hellobike told Xinhua News Agency. However, the BDS doesnt just work one way. Along with the Unite States GPS, Russias GLONASS and the European Unions Galileo, Beidou adopts a unique two way communication system, including its ability to receive messages sent by people from
41、areas with poor communication signals. Obviously, this exclusive function isnt designed for users to chat online. Instead, it plays a role when disasters occur and communications are blocked. After the Wenchuan earthquake in 2008, all ground-based communication facilities were interrupted. Though th
42、e first generation of Beidou could only send 120 characters in a single message at that time, communication between affected areas and rescue centers was successful. Now, Beidous messaging capacity has been increased to 1200 Chinese characters in a single message. It is widely used in disaster alarm
43、s, automatic identification and information release. As Sun Jiadong, former chief designer of the BDS said, “The application of Beidou is only limited by imagination.”32What can we learn about the BDS from the passage?AIt was co-developed by Chinese and American engineersBIt works better when the we

45、show how the BDS makes peoples daily lives easier34What is the function of Beidous two-way communication system?ATo collect feedback from usersBTo make communication more funCTo allow users to chat online more freelyDTo help people when communication signals are weak35What does Sun Jiadong imply in
46、the last paragraph?ABeidou needs to be further perfectedBBeidou stimulates users imaginationCBeidou may be more helpful than we knowDBeidou is limited in application第二节（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5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。选项中有两项为多余选项。A new study suggests whoever stays up late on school nights-whether i
47、t is due to homework, chatting online with friends or late sports practices-may experience more academic and emotional problems than their peers who are earlier to bed. 36_The university researchers of the new study showed that teens who were night owls(夜猫子)had lower exam scores and were also more l
48、ikely to suffer from anxiety than those who go to bed earlier.Study researcher Allison Harvey, a psychologists at UC Berkeley, said, This very important study adds to the already clear evidence that teens who went to bed later than 11:30 pm on school nights are at greater health risk. He added in a
49、statement, 37 The Journal of Adolescent Health study included 2, 700 teens in grades 7 to 12 who were part of the National Longitudinal Study of Adolescent Health. 38 About 30 percent of the teens responded that they went to bed later than 11:30 pm on school nights and 1:30 am in the summer. 39 An a
