B.Sharing a Sense of Style
When I woke up on Aug 4, 2016, there was only one thing on my mind: what to wear. A billion thoughts raced through my brain in the closet. I didn’t want to come off as trying too hard, but I also didn’t want to be seen as a slob (懒汉). Not only was it my first day of high school, but it was my first day of school in a new state; first impressions are everything, and it was important for me to impress the people who I would spend the next four years with.
This was my third time being the new kid. But this time was different because my dad promised that I would start and finish high school in the same place. This time mattered, and that made me nervous.
After meticulously raiding my closet, I proudly came out in a dress from Target. The soft cotton was comfortable, and the ruffled (有褶饰边的) shoulders added a hint of fun. Yes, this outfit was the one. An hour later, I felt powerful as I headed toward room 1136. But as I entered class, my jaw dropped to the floor.
Sitting at her desk was Mrs Hutfilz, my English teacher, sporting exactly the same dress as me. I kept my head down and tiptoed to my seat. I made it through my minute(简短的) introduction speech until Mrs Hutfilz stood up, jokingly adding that she liked my style. Although this was the moment I had been afraid of from the moment I walked in, all my anxiety surprisingly melted away, and the students paid attention as I shared my story. My smile grew as I laughed with the students. After class, I stayed behind and talked to Mrs Hutfilz, relieved to make a humorous and real connection.
Looking back four years later, the ten minutes I spent afraid of giving my speech were really not worth it. My first period of high school certainly made the day unforgettable in the best way and taught me that Mrs Hutfilz has an awesome sense of style!
4.Why did the author attach great importance to her clothes on the first day of high school?
A.She followed her father’s advice.

A.Annoyed. B.Confused. C.Proud. D.Embarrassed.
7.What is the author’s purpose in writing the article?
A.To share a memorable experience.
B.To explore the troubles with dressing.
C.To introduce her stylish English teacher.
D.To stress the importance of first impressions.
C
.Each country has its own set of national stereotypes(刻板印象), but perhaps the most famous is Britain’s love of tea.    
According to the BBC, they drink over 60 billion cups each year. The most popular tea type in the UK is black tea. It’s a simple recipe: You find a mug, add a tea bag, pour boiling water, add milk and sugar (according to your taste) and finish by stirring.
Usually, the only debate is whether milk should be added before or after the boiling water. But a recent popular video has outraged (使愤怒) Britons after completely changing this long-established method.
American TikTok user, Sophie, posted her version of “British tea”, which involved microwaving cold water, then adding milk, sugar and an instant teabag containing powdered lemonade, cinnamon and clove (丁香) leaves.
Mainstream media called the method “profoundly disturbed”, and a Twitter user even wrote, “I would rather see tea dumped (倾倒) into the Boston harbor than drink this abomination (可恶的东西).”
As you can tell, tea is a precious part of British life, whether you’re having afternoon tea at a fancy hotel or drinking it in a takeaway cup.
“Rosie Lee” – a common slang term for tea – first came to Britain in the mid-1600s from China. Since then, the country’s love for it has not declined.
Types of tea can even indicate someone’s social class, according to anthropologist (人类学家) Kate Fox. In her book, she notes that “teas get progressively weaker as one goes up the social ladder”, like black tea served during afternoon tea. At the opposite end, you have “builder’s teas”, which are standard black teas that are brewed (煮) stronger and include more milk and sugar.
Fox added, “Taking sugar in your tea is a lower-class indicator: More than one and you are lower-middle at best; more than two and you are definitely working class.”
Despite the disputes (争论) on what makes a perfect “cuppa”, Britons can at least agree on the saying, “No matter what is happening in your life, you always offer tea.”
8.What do we know about tea drinking in the UK?
A.They drink over 60 billion cups each month.
B.They pour boiling water over the tea bag.
C.“Rosie Lee” is Britons’ favorite tea type.
D.Its history dates back to the 16th century.
9.Why did Sophie’s video anger Britons?
A.She criticized the way Britons drink tea.
B.She added milk after the boiling water.
C.Her way of making tea was against their tradition.
D.She used a strange tea bag.
10.If John is from the upper class, he probably puts ____ sugar(s) in his tea, according to Fox.
A.no B.one C.two D.three
11.What is the text mainly about?
A.British tea traditions among different social classes.
B.The debate on how to make perfect tea.
C.The influence of tea drinking on Britons’ lives.
D.Tea drinking culture in the UK.

.A little over a year ago on Jan 3, 2019, China’s Chang’e 4 spacecraft did something that had never been done before – landing on the moon’s far side. Ever since then, the rover (探测车) it carried – Yutu 2 – has been sending back pictures of the lesser-seen side of our neighboring satellite.   
Now, the rover has shifted its sight from horizontal to vertical. In a paper published in the journal Science Advances on Feb 26, Chinese scientists revealed the underground structure of the Von Karman crater (火山口) – the area where Yutu 2 touched down. Using ground-penetrating radar (探地雷达), Yutu 2 was able to detect three distinct layers in the 40 meters beneath the floor of the crater, which Science News compares to “layers of a cake”.   
The top 12-meter layer is made up of fine (细密的) dust and soil – a bit like the frosting (糖霜) on a cake. The second layer, stretching another 12 meters below, contains a great number of large stones that are like “cherries in a fruitcake”, wrote Science News. And the next layer – which runs from 24 meters down to 40 meters – is a mixture of both large and fine materials, just like the whole-wheat bread base of a cake.   
This “layered cake” provides us with a glimpse into moon’s four billion-year history – and it was likely to be a violent one.   
According to the study’s leader, Su Yan, based at the Chinese Academy of Sciences, the rocks in the layers are possibly leftover debris (碎片) from past impacts, suggesting asteroid collisions (小行星撞击). The finer soil is the sign of smaller meteorite (陨石) collisions, breaking down the rocks into smaller pieces, which were then gradually degraded (降解) by the radiation from the sun.   
But quite unlike a cake, the moon floor doesn’t just stop at the third layer. Instead, it stretches miles deeper. The reason that Yutu 2’s data stopped at 40 meters was that it reached its maximum range. It may seem like a pity that it couldn’t go any farther for now, but the truth is that the technology has improved a lot since it was first used in 1972 by America’s Apollo 17 orbiter to map the structure of the moon.   
“The previous measurements indicated different layers, but they don’t seem to have come up with the level of detail about the physical properties of the subsurface that Chang’e 4 is producing,” Gretchen Benedix, a planetary scientist at Curtin University, Australia, told ABC News.   
Forty meters down is just the beginning of our research into the moon’s far side. With the aid of new technology, who knows what we could discover if we delved (钻研) even deeper?
12.What does Paragraph 2 suggest?
A.The rover detected the atmosphere of the moon.
B.The rover had left the far side of the moon.
C.The rover discovered the Von Karman crater with its radar.
D.The rover detected the underground structure of a crater.
13.What does the second layer of the crater contain?
A.Fine dust. B.Soil.
C.Large stones. D.A mixture of both large and fine materials.
14.What does Paragraph 5 tell us?
A.How important the three layers are to the crater.
B.Why the moon probably had a violent history.
C.How asteroids changed the moon’s surface.
D.Why meteorite collisions happen frequently.
15What does Gretchen Benedix probably think of the measurements of Chang’e-4?
A.They lack details. B.They are beyond expectations.
C.They repeated the previous study.` D.They are praiseworthy.
二、七选五
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。
Everybody yawns – from unborn babies to great-grandparents. But why, exactly, do we yawn?16__________ 
One theory is that when we are bored or tired, we just don’t breathe as deeply as we usually do. 17__________ Therefore, yawning helps us bring more oxygen into the blood and move more carbon dioxide out of the blood.   
Yawning, then, would be an involuntary reflex (something we can’t really control) to help us control our oxygen and carbon dioxide levels. Sounds good, but other studies have shown that breathing more oxygen does not make us yawn less. 18__________Hmmm. Now what?   
19_________ Stretching and yawning may be a way to flex muscles and joints, increase heart rate, and feel more awake.   
Other people believe that yawning is a protective reflex to redistribute (重新分配) the oil-like substance (物质) called surfactant (say: sur-FAK-tint) that helps keep lungs from drying up and caving in. So, if we didn’t yawn, according to this theory, taking a deep breath would become harder and harder – and that would not be good!   
But there is one idea about yawning that everyone knows to be true: ​20__________ If you yawn in class, you’ll probably notice a few other people will start yawning, too. Even thinking about yawning can get you yawning. How many times have you yawned while reading this article? We hope not many!
A. It seems to spread. 
B. Yawning seems to be common.
C. No one knows for sure, but there are many theories. 
D. Another theory is that yawning stretches the lung and lung tissue.
E. This theory indicates yawning, like a deep breath, helps us feel fresh.
F. Likewise, breathing more carbon dioxide does not increase yawning. 
G. As this theory goes, our bodies take in less oxygen because our breathing has slowed.

16-20.答案：CGFDA
解析：16.根据上文 But why, exactly, do we yawn? 可知,但是我们到底为什么要打哈欠呢?C项意为“没有人确切地知道,但有许多理论”,承接上文,符合语境。故正确答案为C。
17 根据上文 One theory is that when we are bored or tired, we just don't breathe as deeply as we usually do. 可知,有一种理论认为,当我们感到无聊或疲惫时,我们不会像平时那样深呼吸。根据下文 Therefore, yawning helps us bring more oxygen into the blood and move more carbon dioxide out of the blood. 可知,因此,打呵欠是一种我们无法真正控制的行为,以帮助我们控制我们的氧气和二氧化碳水平。G项意为“按照这个理论,我们的身体吸入的氧气减少是因为我们的呼吸变慢了”,承上启下,符合语境。故正确答案为G。
18 根据上文 Sounds good, but other studies have shown that breathing more oxygen does not make us yawn less. 可知,听起来不错,但其他研究表明,吸入更多氧气并不会让我们打哈欠少一些。F项意为“同样地,呼吸更多的二氧化碳也不会增加打哈欠的次数”,承接上文,符合语境。故正确答案为F。
19 根据下文 Stretching(拉伸) and yawning may be a way to relax muscles and joints, increase heart rate, and feel more awake. 可知,伸展和打哈欠可能是放松肌肉和关节,提高心率,感觉更清醒的一种方式。D项意为”另一种理论是打哈欠拉伸了肺和肺组织“,引出下文,符合语境。故正确答案为D。
20. 根据下文 If you yawn in class, you'll probably notice a few other people will start yawning, too. 可知,如果你在课堂上打哈欠,你可能会注意到其他一些人也会开始打哈欠。A项意为“它似乎在扩散”,引出下文,符合语境。故正确答案为A。
