The highland areas, with views over Switzerland and France, are a good place for food- lovers. Activities in the park range from hiking and fishing to mountain biking,while the slower travelers will enjoy the trails for an escape from everyday life.
The Bliesgau Biosphere
This place is home to almost half of all German orchid species. The grasslands spread for miles, drawing in different butterflies. Thanks to its comfortable climate, this is a region of sustainable development. In fact, this park is an example of farming done right and offers a wealth of agricultural know-how to anyone eager to learn.

Marita Davies, was in a wheelchair for a year and had to learn to walk after she suffered terrible injures. She feared her dream of a modeling career was over but just three years on, she is now n the running to be crowned (加冕) Miss Great Britain. She said, “I was shocked when I learned how serious my injuries were. I thought my dream of becoming a model was over. My leg was seriously injured and my back was broken. The accident had broken my confidence.”
But she turned a corner when she finally came out of the wheelchair. Marita decided she would still try to follow her dream, and sent her photos off to some modeling agencies. She did a few unpaid jobs while studying at college, and soon, paid commercial modeling jobs started coming in. Marita was a bit doubtful at first, because the accident has left her with huge scars on her leg and back. She was worried people wouldn’t want her to model for them, but it didn’t stop her.
She has done amazingly well to overcome everything, which has been thrown at her in the last three years. Within months of learning to walk again, Marita was signed up for advertising campaigns. She has also appeared in a TV ad. Marita was crowned Miss Nottingham City earlier this year, and is now competing against 59 other girls to be crowned Miss Great Britain.

What do you do at the end of the day when you’re finished with work? How you spend your free time can have a big impact on your mental health. Hobbies can help you relax and ease pent-up (郁结的) stress caused by all that time in the office or in front of the computer. But, interestingly, how you spend your free time can also impact your work performance.
Researchers at the University of Sheffield’s Institute of Work Psychology in the UK found that developing hobbies can develop your confidence about how well you perform your job. But your hobby has to be significantly different from what you do from 9-to-5 work.
To study the connection between work and leisure activities, researchers employed 129 people who worked and were active in hobbies like rock climbing, musical theater and singing. They had them complete surveys to see how serious and committed they were to their hobbies and how demanding their jobs were. Then, each month for seven months, participants were asked how many hours they spent on their hobbies and how they rated their ability to perform at work.
Researchers found that if people have hobbies similar to what they do at work and that they do in an intense way, their on-the-job confidence can suffer. It’s likely because their work and leisure time have the same mental and physical demands, so they’re always feeling drained.
In contrast, people who have hobbies different from their work are happier and healthier. This is also true of those who choose a similar hobby but only participate in a light-hearted way. Those playful recreations act as a barrier between their professional and personal lives, giving them rest time to “recharge their batteries”, the researchers say.
“When we feel like we have the confidence to handle challenges in our jobs. We’re more likely to be able to build a sustainable job and remain healthy, productive, happy and employable over our lifetimes. Its important to consider how our leisure activities might play a role in that process,” lead researcher Ciara Kelly said in a statement.
8. What’s the impact of your hobby?
A. It surely improves your physical strength.
B. It helps you to recover from your stress.
C. It enables you to behave more actively.
D. It increases your willingness to work hard.
9. Which of the following is proper and reasonable according to paragraph 2?
A. A basketball coach plays basketball. B. A writer keeps a diary every day.
C. An e-game developer surfs the Internet. D. A doctor sometimes goes swimming.
10. What does the underlined word “drained” in paragraph 4 probably mean?
A. Worried. B. Exhausted. C. Unconfident. D. Disappointed.
11. How can people benefit from hobbies similar to their work?
A. Take them seriously. B. Set strict schedules for them.
C. Participate in them just for fun. D. Develop them into their business.
【8~11题答案】
【答案】8. B 9. D 10. B 11. C
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。短文介绍了下班后如何度过空闲时间会影响你的工作表现，对此短文进行了研究并得出了结论。
【8题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段“Hobbies can help you relax and ease pent-up (郁结) stress caused by all that time in the office or in front of the computer.”（业余爱好可以帮助你放松和缓解由于在办公室或电脑前的所有时间所造成的郁结的压力。）可知，爱好能帮助你从压力中恢复过来。故选B项。
【9题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段“Researchers at the University of Sheffield’s Institute of Work Psychology in the UK found that developing hobbies can develop your confidence about how well you perform your job. But your hobby has to be significantly different from what you do from 9-to-5 work.”（英国谢菲尔德大学工作心理学研究所研究人员发现，培养兴趣爱好可以增强你对自己工作表现的信心。但你的爱好必须与你朝九晚五的工作有很大的不同）可知，D选项“医生有时去游泳”是适当和合理的。故选D项。
【10题详解】
词句猜测题。根据第四段划线词前的“Researchers found that if people have hobbies similar to what they do at work and that they do in an intense way, their on-the-job confidence can suffer. It’s likely because their work and leisure time have the same mental and physical demands”（研究人员发现，如果人们的兴趣爱好与工作相近，而且非常专注，他们的工作信心就会受到影响。这可能是因为他们的工作和休闲时间有相同的精神和身体需求）可知，所以他们总是觉得筋疲力尽。故划线词的意思是“筋疲力尽”。故选B项。
【11题详解】
细节理解题。根据第五段“In contrast, people who have hobbies different from their work are happier and healthier. This is also true of those who choose a similar hobby but only participate in a light-hearted way.”（相比之下，爱好与工作不同的人更快乐、更健康。对于那些选择了类似爱好但只是以一种轻松的方式参与的人来说也是如此）可知，人们如何从与工作相似的爱好中获益是把参加这些活动当做玩。故选C项。
D
We tend to think of plants as the furniture of the natural world. They don’t move, they don’t make sounds, they don’t seem to respond to anything-at least not very quickly. But as is often the case, our human’s view of the world misses quite a lot. Plants talk to each other all the time. And the language is chemical.
Over the years scientists have reported that different types of plants, from trees to tomatoes, release compounds (化合物) into the air to help neighboring plants. These chemical warnings all have the same purpose-to spread information about one plant’s disease or infestation so other plants can defend themselves. But exactly how plants receive and act on many of these signals is still mysterious.
In this week’s Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, researchers in Japan offered some explanations. They had identified one chemical message and traced it all the way from release to action.
The scientists looked at tomato plants infested by a common pest, the cutworm. The researchers studied leaves from exposed and unexposed plants. They found one compound showed up more often in the exposed plants. The substance is called Hex Vic. When the scientists fed Hex Vic to cutworms, it knocked down their survival rate by 17%. The scientists identified the source of Hex Vic, and sprayed it lightly over healthy plants. Those plants were then able to start producing the cutworm-killing Hex Vic. Researchers confirmed that uninfested plants have to build their own weapon to fight off bugs and diseases. How do they know when to play defense? They are warned first by their friendly plant neighbors.
It is a complex tale, and it may be happening in more plant species than tomatoes. It may also be happening with more chemical signals that are still unknown to us. For now though, we know that plants not only communicate, they look out for one another.
12. What does paragraph 1 intend to tell us?
A. How plants communicate is still a mystery.
B. Enough attention has been paid to plant talk.
C. Plants are the furniture of the natural world.
D. Plants can communicate with each other.
13. According to Paragraph 2, it is unknown _________.
A. how plants receive and handle the signals from their neighbors
B. why plants spread chemical information to their neighbor
C. how many types of plants release compounds into the air
D whether plants send chemical warnings to their neighbors
14. What does the underlined phrase “knocked down” mean?
A. hit B. increased C. expanded D. decreased
15. What may be the best title for the passage?
A. Survival of Plants B. Plant World C. Talking Plants D. Plant Bug killer
【12~15题答案】
【答案】12. D 13. A 14. D 15. C
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了植物可以相互交流。
【12题详解】
主旨大意题。根据文章第一段“But as is often the case, our human’s view of the world misses quite a lot. Plants talk to each other all the time. And the language is chemical.(但通常情况下，我们人类的世界观遗漏了很多东西。植物一直在互相交流。语言是化学物质)”可知，第一段主要告诉我们植物可以相互交流。故选D。
【13题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第二段“But exactly how plants receive and act on many of these signals is still mysterious.(但植物究竟是如何接收这些信号并对其采取行动的，仍然是个谜)”可知，根据第二段，植物如何接收和处理来自邻居的信号是未知的。故选A。
【14题详解】
词句猜测题。根据下文“The scientists identified the source of Hex Vic, and sprayed it lightly over healthy plants. Those plants were then able to start producing the cutworm-killing Hex Vic.( 科学家们确定了Hex Vic的来源，并将其轻轻喷洒在健康的植物上。然后这些植物就能开始生产杀死蠕虫的Hex Vic)”可知，Hex Vic对于蚯蚓来说是有害的化学物质，因此当科学家们用Hex Vic喂蚯蚓时，蚯蚓的存活率降低了17%。knocked down意为“下降”。故选D。
【15题详解】
主旨大意题。根据文章第一段“Plants talk to each other all the time. And the language is chemical.(植物一直在互相交流。语言是化学物质)”可知，文章主要讲述了植物可以相互交流。故选C。

第2节（满分25分）
47. 阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写一段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。（字数150左右）
"Why did you do this without asking for my permission first? Don't you know it's a total waste of time and it will have a bad influence on your study?" That's what my mother yelled at the ten-year-old me when she found out that I had signed up for an English story-telling competition.
I bowed my head; yes, she was right. By then I was entering Grade Six, faced with the biggest challenge yet to come — the examination to enter my dream junior high school. For that. I had given up my beloved piano lesson, my favourite cartoon program and even the joyful weekend family reunion with my cousins. I wouldn't be surprised at all if my very strict-university-teacher mother got angry at me when I chose to do anything that had little to do with study at that important moment. In her opinion, if I hadn't spent all my time on my study I would have difficulty in entering my dream junior high school.
But that's not all to it. When I was ten, I was nervous, shy, tongue-tied when facing strangers, and essentially a bookworm. These signs looked fatal (致命的) to my mother, and possibly to you, too; she thought that I could be anything but a good public speaker.
Well, I myself actually said no to my English teacher at first, because I had never done anything like that before and I was afraid. But he told me that — since I liked reading so much, why not try to tell a story I love to everyone? He also promised me that the judges were not frightening at all; just think of them as carrots and cabbages in a vegetable garden.
The ten-year-old me was persuaded by my teacher's words.
______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Apparently surprised by my determination, my mother looked as if she was close to another explosion-but she only sighed and agreed.

【47题答案】
【答案】
The ten-year-old me was persuaded by my teacher's words. The feeling of telling my beloved story to someone else lighted a spark of anticipation in my little chest. So after what seemed to be ages, harsh words from the above of my head suddenly disappeared. An urge of begging for my mother's permission got more and more uncontrollable. Eventually, I bravely raised my head, fearlessly looked into her eyes, and earnestly pleaded, "Mom please! I just want to have a try."
Apparently surprised by my determination, my mother looked as if she was close to another explosion — but she only sighed and agreed. Soon I started working with my English teacher day and night to hunt for a story, to illustrate the details, and to practice my facial expressions and gestures in front of the mirror. On the day of the competition, I went on the stage for the very first time in my life. Nervous as I was, I still finished my story. Although I only got the third prize at that time, I thanked my teacher and my mother for letting me take a road that I had never taken before.
【解析】
【分析】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了作者回忆自己十岁时因为报名参加英语演讲比赛，而让母亲生气的经历，母亲生气是因为她担心作者把宝贵的时间花在演讲比赛上，从而影响了学习，但作者的英语老师却鼓励其参加比赛。
【详解】1.段落续写：
①由第一段首句内容“十岁的我被老师的话说服了。”可知，第一段可描写作者再一次请求母亲允许。
②由第二段首句内容“母亲显然对我的决心感到惊讶，她看起来好像又要发生一次爆发了——但她只是叹了口气，表示同意。”可知，第二段可描写作者为比赛做准备和比赛结果。
2.续写线索：恳求——练习——获得三等奖——感谢
3.词汇激活
行为类
①恳求：plead/beg
②练习：practice/train
③获得三等奖：get the third prize/be awarded the third prize
④感谢：thank/appreciate
情绪类
①勇敢地：bravely/courageously

[高分句型2]Although I only got the third prize at that time, I thanked my teacher and my mother for letting me take a road that I had never taken before.（由关系代词that引导的限制性定语从句）
