With each passing day we were getting increasingly worried and we continued to work together in order to pull our fami
11、ly through. The more we pulled together, the closer we got. I felt feelings of admiration for my husband that I hadnt felt in years.Thats why it was so hard for me to watch him blame himself for our present situation. I continually asked him to stop, but he seemed to want to punish himself for not h
12、aving a job.Finally, one afternoon I pulled him aside and said, “We have four healthy children. Thats whats important. That makes you a rich man.”“But what if we lose the house? Theyll hate me-youll hate me,” he replied.I smiled at him and put my hands on both sides of his face to make him look me i
13、n the eye. “No matter where we live I will be happy-as long as I have you.” I smiled again.

14、together in a way that we hadnt for quite some time. It was a turning point for us as a couple and a family.We are still struggling for our better life, but I consider us well-off because we have something that money cant buy and no one can take away from us.21.

A Hard TimeBDo you think that puppet shows(木偶戏) are just for children? In some parts of the world, like Indonesia, a puppet show is an activity enjoyed
17、 by people of all ages.At most puppet shows, the audience sits on one side of the screen and the puppeteer(操纵木偶的人) sits on the other. However, at an Indonesian front shadow puppet show, the audience can choose which side to sit on. From out front, audience members see shadows of puppets acting out e
18、xciting scenes of romance or battle. These people enjoy the fantasy that “real” events are taking place.Behind the scenes, it can be fascinating to see a dalang, or puppeteer, in action. The dalang manipulates puppets made of buffalo hide (水牛皮) by moving attached rods(棒) of buffalo horn or bamboo. E
19、ach of a puppets arms and the main part of its body have their own rods, but its legs are rarely moved on their own.Each puppet has its own voice and its own way of moving. The “good” puppets usually speak calmly and move gracefully; the “bad” ones have rough voices and move in a funny way. The stor
20、ies acted out by the puppets are often based on ancient myths or legends. A specially written puppet show might also celebrate a birth, wedding, or harvest. Sometimes a dalang chooses an old story that he thinks is appropriate for the village where the performance will take place. Before the show, h
21、e may ask local people about current events in the village and then use the puppet show to illustrate possible solutions to local problems.The audience of a shadow puppet show expects to settle in for a long evening. A show may start in the later afternoon and not end until four oclock the next morn
22、ing! Children and adults alike may fall asleep in the middle of a show and wake up hours later to find it still going on. Of course, the dalang must remain alert(警觉的) throughout the show.

25、or the audienceCA new study, a project of the researchers from the University of Pittsburgh in Pennsylvania, finds that fitness tracker(追踪器) probably does not help with weight loss.The devices are designed to record your physical activity. They are usually worn around the wrist, where they measure a
26、 persons heart rate. The research team looked at two groups of individuals. The first wore a fitness tracker and took part in health counseling(咨询) with experts to consider the best weight-loss plan. The researchers compared this group with people who only got health counseling.The study found that
27、those only speaking with the health experts lost nearly 6 kilograms, but those using a fitness tracker lost only 3.5 kilograms. John Jakicic, the lead researcher, questioned the use of electronic devices for weight control in place of “effective behavioral counseling for physical activity and diet.”
28、The study involved 470 subjects aged between 18 and 35. Some of them were overweight, while others were considered obese(肥胖的). Over three fourths of the subjects were women. All the subjects were told to increase physical activity and start on a low-calorie diet. They had their weight measured once
29、every six months. After six months, researchers divided the group into two parts: one continued with monthly counseling, while members of the other group were given a fitness tracker. Eighteen months later, both groups “showed significant improvements in fitness, physical activity, and diet,” with n
30、o major difference between groups. However, when it came to losing weight, the people who only spoke with experts lost nearly twice as much weight.Jakicic said, “the studys findings are important because effective long-term treatments are needed to address Americas obesity.” More information is need
31、ed, he added, to learn how to best use these devices to change “physical activity and diet behaviors” in adults who want to lose weight.27. All the subjects in the study were asked to .A. start on a high-calorie dietB. wear a fitness trackerC. increase physical activitiesD. record their heart rates2
32、8. Why does Jakicic think the findings are important?A. Wearing fitness trackers hardly helps people lose weightB. Physical activity and diet have no effect on weight lossC. Handling obesity requires effective long-term treatmentsD. There are great differences in fitness between both groups29. What
33、can we infer about the study mentioned in the text?A. The study went on for about two yearsB. More than 120 men took part in the studyC. Health counseling helps lose almost 6 kilogramsD. Wearing a fitness tracker is useful for keeping slim30. The purpose of the text is to .A. describe how the resear
34、chers were conducting the studyB. indicate regular counseling for weight control is necessaryC. convince readers to wear fitness trackers for weight controlD. warn women are more likely to suffer from weight problems第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10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。People have been makin

The name comes from a graceful bird called Kite. 33 A flat kite is the oldest and simplest type of kite. It flies
37、 because air flows over and under the kites wing. The pressure under the wing helps the kite lift into the air. 34 Early scientists sent kites up into the air to measure temperature at different heights. In 1752, Benjamin Franklin used a kite to prove that lightning was a form of electricity. He att
38、ached a metal key to the string of a kite. When lightning hit the kite, electricity passed down the string and Franklin got an electric shock. It was a dangerous experiment that you shouldnt copy.Kites were also used to develop airplanes. The Wright Brothers experimented with kites before they flew

56、ing pregnancy or childbirth. Each year, about 2.6 million babies are born dead and another 2.7 million babies die during the first 28 days of life, it said. Most of the deaths are taking place in South Asia and in Africa, south of the Sahara Desert. Many of the deaths could have been avoided with qu
57、ality health care, WHO officials said. Some stillbirths(births of dead babies), infant(new-born baby) deaths or deaths of mothers result from complications(并发症) during childbirth. Others may result from health problems with the mother. A poor diet or using drugs may also be to blame, the WHO added.A
58、nother problem is that nearly all babies who are stillborn and half of all newborn deaths are never documented. Those deaths are not reported to or investigated by government health agencies. Traditions and beliefs often affect the collection of important records about infant deaths. In many countri
59、es, there is a belief that a stillbirth may not represent a lost life. Officials said this means the actual number of stillborn and newborn deaths is probably even higher than the WHOs own current estimates. The United Nations agency says the lack of information makes it harder to find solutions. It
60、 is important for all births and deaths to be recorded so that health officials can make better decisions on how to prevent future deaths.The WHO released three reports earlier this month to help health agencies do a better job collecting information._ 英语试题参考答案第一部分 听力（共两节，满分30分）1-5 CCBAA 6-10 AAACB
