In the last few years, the sea level has risen and reached lots of Moai statues. Scientists have warned the statues could disappear as the sea
24、level will rise at least by 1. 8 meters by 2100 because of climate change. 2. Venice, ItalyThe “Floating City” may not float(漂流) for longer as experts have warned that Venice could go down in 100 years. Since 1897, the sea level in Venice has risen by 30 centimeters, and the Mediterranean will rise
25、by 1. 4 meters before 2100, according to scientists from Italy and France. 3. The Dead Sea, JordanAt 423 meters below sea level, the Dead Sea is 10 times saltier than the ocean. Even tourists who cant swim will be able to float freely. But the seaside has lost a third of its surface area in the past
26、 40 years because of human activities. 4. The MaldivesThe Maldives is a good place with wonderful hotels and the fish swimming in clear waters, but this will soon be gone. Some islands in the Maldives were cut out from the map after the serious tsunami (海啸)in 2004. Even worse, over 80 percent of the
27、 islands sit no more than one meter above sea level. It is the lowest country on the earth and it could disappear in the near future because of the rising sea level. 56. According to the text, we can learn that Easter Island is very famous for _. A. the rising sea level B. over 1, 000 Moai statues C
28、. the clear water D. the very salty water57. According to the text, even if you cannot swim well, you can float in the Dead Sea because _.

29、_. A. health report B. introduction for tourists C. medical magazine D. letter from a good friendBStudents at a primary school in Fuzhou, Fujian Province were required to clean the school toilets to help them develop good habits. But some parents are strongly against the idea. They cant see the adva
30、ntages of students doing such chores(杂事). They think that the school should provide students with a proper education, not the chance to be school cleaners. In fact, parents, schools and society play an equally(同等地)important role in developing the character of students. It is good for schools to give
31、 students such tasks, because few of the students will do them at home. Their parents want them to do homework only. In recent years, some parents will make mountains out of molehills when students are asked to do some chores in schools. Some complain about the teachers if their kids get hurt in sch
32、ools; some even challenge the schools teaching methods and management. As a result, many primary schools, especially those in big cities, do not let students join in outdoor activities during breaks, fearing that they might get hurt. This is bad for the development of students best qualities. What t
33、he primary school in Fuzhou is doing is worth praising. Doing chores can put a sense of responsibility into students minds and teach them the spirit of rules as well as teamwork. Also, it can make students inschool experiences more meaningful. 59. A primary school in Fuzhou required the students to
34、_. A. do homework only B. finish homework at school C. clean the playground D. clean the school toilets60. Some parents think that the school should provide students with _.

Parents require students to do some chores in school. C. Some parents think doing some chores is harmful to students. D. Doing some chores ca
36、n develop students good qualities. CHow many hours did you spend reading books last week? This question has been asked in thousands of homes every other year since 1992 as part of the University of Michigans Health and Retirement Study (HRS). In 2017, when Yale researchers studied the HRS results th
37、at collected from more than 3, 600 men and women over the age of 50, a hopeful result appeared:People who read books for as little as 30 minutes a day over several years were living an average( 平 均 ) of two years longer than people who didnt read anything at all. Newspapers and magazines have a smal
38、ler but similar advantage. Why would this activity add years to your life?For starters, readingespecially fictionhas been shown to improve your ideas. These social tools can lead to an increase in positive(积极的) human action, which in turn can lower stress levels. Then theres the fact that books let
39、old people know fresh words and phrases. It can help them to communicate with young people better. It also helps them feel younger themselves. So people should have a habit to read books especially young people. 63. How long has the survey made in 2018? A. 10 years. B. 12 years. C. 22 years. D. 26 y
40、ears. 64. The person who reads books for at least 30 minutes a day over several years may _. A. feel lonely B. have a longer life C. have more new ways D. learn many words65.

41、e best title for the passage?A. The Advantage of Reading Books B. The Survey of Reading Books C. The Price of Books D. Old People Enjoy ReadingDMaybe you find out that some people live to be older than others. You may think that they keep balanced diets, take proper exercise and so on. However, a ne
42、w study shows that your personality(性格) influences your longevity(寿命, 长寿). The study finds out that those living the longest are more outgoing, more active and less nervous than other people. Longlived women are more likely (可能)to be kind and helpful. Those who like making friends and helping others
43、 can go through difficult times easily. However, those who are very strict with themselves, are hard to live to be very old. Also, being open to new ideas has no relationship to a long life. Whether you can successfully change your personality as an adult is the subject of a longlasting discussion.
44、But if you want a long life, you should try to be as outgoing as possible. Unluckily, another recent study shows that your mothers personality may influence your longevity. The study observed nearly 28, 000 Norwegian mothers and found that those mums who were more nervous and angry were more likely
45、to feed their kids unhealthy diets. Eating habits of childhood can be hard to break when they grow up, which may mean that kids of nervous mums end up dying younger. 67. According to Paragraph 2, we can learn that _. A. peoples personality influences their longevity B. peoples lifestyle has an influ
46、ence on their health C. exercise helps people live a long life D. a balanced diet leads to longevity68. What does the author think of outgoing and helpful people?A.

48、nalities may influence their childrens longevity. ESeveral schools in China have introduced uniforms(校服) with tracking(追踪) chips(芯片) to watch students movements and stop them from staying away from school without permission(许可, 允许). The socalled “smart uniforms” record the time and date a student en
49、ters the school and a short video parents can see through a mobile app. Eleven schools in Guizhou have introduced the uniforms. If a student leaves school without permission, the “smart uniforms” will start working with an automatic(自动的) voice alarm(警报) to tell both teachers and parents of the stude
50、nts absence. A system also tracks students movements even once they have left the school. But a companys manager said the school would only use the tracking beyond school hours if a student were to go missing. Students were hardly absent from class since the uniforms had been used. However, most of
51、the students said, “If you were a child, would you like to be watched 24 hours a day?” “Dont children have human rights and freedom?”A headmaster in Guizhou said, “Though the school is able to track students at all times, we seldom use this technology. We choose not to check the correct position of
52、students after school, but when the students are missing and staying away from classes, the uniforms help find out where they are. ”70. According to the text, this kind of uniforms is used to _.
