第二部分阅读(共两节，满分50分)

第一节 (共15小题；每小题2.5分，满分37.5分)

阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项                               A

An easily biodegradable(可生物降解的) material that could be “part of a global answer” to single­use plastic pollution has won its inventor, British designer Lucy Hughes, the international James Dyson Award.

Hughes' Marina Tex bioplastic is strong and flexible, making it a possible alternative for single­use packaging such as bags and sandwich wrappers. Its key ingredients are fish scales and skin, so it can break down in home food waste or compost bins.

Hughes created Marina Tex for her final­year project in the product design course at the University of Sussex. She had set out to create something using waste rather than unused materials, which led her to the UK's fishing industry. She ran more than 100 experiments to improve the bioplastic mixture, mostly using the kitchen stove in her student accommodation.

The fish scales and skin removed during processing usually end up burnt or buried in landfill. And with “about 500，000 tonnes of such waste produced by the country's fisheries annually”， it seems possible that Marina Tex could be used largely in industrial production. The material is low­energy to produce and doesn't consume the earth's natural resources considering it's based on existing waste. It is also strong, boasting a higher tensile(可拉伸的) strength than the current material most commonly used for plastic bags.

British inventor James Dyson, who every year selects the grand prize winner in the international student design competition that bears his name, said that the material had the potential to replace traditional single­use plastics. “Marina Tex elegantly solves two problems: the ubiquity(无处不在) of single­use plastics and fish waste，” he said. “Further research and development will ensure that Marina Tex evolves further, and I hope it becomes part of a global answer to the abundance of single­use plastic waste.”

21. What do we know about Marina Tex bioplastic?

A. It can break down easily.B. It feels pretty hard.

C. It is made from fish.    D. It is used globally.

22. Which of the following should be the best title for the text?

A. Existing Fish Waste

B. New Bioplastic Made from Fish Waste

C. An International Student Design Competition

D. Ways to Fight Plastic Pollution

23. Why did Hughes created Marina Tex?

A. To create something special.

B. To run experiments.

C. To promote fishing industry.

D. To finish her project at the university.

24. What does James think of the future of Marina Tex?

A. Promising.B. Costly. C. Dark. D. Uncertain.

B

Dr. Faisal Zawawi, an Otolaryngologist and member of the McGill Auditory Sciences Laboratory, notes that when a person is exposed to loud noises, it can cause short­term hearing loss but that under normal circumstances the body typically is able to repair the loss of hearing within 72 hours. However, Zawawi warns that if symptoms are not reversed(倒转) in the first 72 hours the damage could become permanent. Due to findings in previous studies about it, Zawawi says that the team of researchers has suspected that something may stop this repair process. Therefore, the team set out to determine if caffeine could be a contributing cause to hearing loss. According to the Medical Daily, the researchers tested what they suspected on female guinea pigs (FGP)(豚鼠)．

To perform the test, 24 female guinea pigs were split into three equal groups with each group exposed in different levels to caffeine, and loud noise. The researchers found that the guinea pigs subjected to only sound had their full hearing recovered by day eight. However, the guinea pigs that were subjected to both caffeine and loud noise never fully regained their hearing. Therefore，the researchers concluded that caffeine is a likely contributing cause to permanent hearing loss.

“This research confirms that while a cup of coffee may seem appealing after a long night at a loud concert, drinking caffeine produces more of a risk than benefit when it comes to a person's hearing. Although further research is required to understand the effects on humans, the results are promising，” says Zawawi. If the research proves successful, the removal of caffeine from your diet following noise exposure could prevent permanent hearing loss as the body will be more able to repair itself naturally.

25. What caused the team to do the research?

A. Caffeine loving people suffering hearing loss.

B. The finding that FGPs are sensitive to noise.

C. The results about hearing loss found before.

D. The fact that many people drink coffee.

26. What can we learn about hearing from the text?

A. Coffee can stop it from recovering.  B. Coffee can lead to quick hearing loss.

C. Loud noise causes people to lose it forever.D. Hearing loss after noise exposure is normal.

27. How does Zawawi assess the research?

A. It's controversial.   B. It's almost successful.

C. It's unnecessary to carry it on.D. It's not predictable.

28. What is Zawawi's view about temporary hearing loss?

A. Drinking coffee daily results in it.

B. Generally people can recover from it in 3 days.

C. The continuous noise exposure surely causes it.

D. The temporary hearing loss will become permanent after 3 days.

C

How does keeping things tidy change people psychologically? You gain greater confidence in yourself. Also, you become more optimistic and calmer in the mind than before. There are several reasons for these changes: your self­image improves as you start living in tidy beautiful rooms, and you gain decision­making skills as you continue to choose between which things to throw or give away and which to keep. The way we let go of things in the Kon Mari Method plays an important role as well.

The Kon Mari Method has a step where we give thanks to the things before we throw them away. Not only would you say “thank you for sparking joy in me” to a favorite piece of clothing that you wore till it was threadbare,__you would also say to a piece of clothing you never wore once “thank you for teaching me that this color doesn't look good on me”. You will appreciate the roles of all the things that have come to you and experience appreciation for all of them. Through this experience, you will rediscover the truth that you have been supported by so many things and you will deepen your gratitude for things you leave behind.

To share a personal example, I have always had little confidence in myself. When I get nervous before a large speaking assignment, I think to myself that I'll be fine because these clothes are protecting me and these shoes are supporting me, and that calms me down. Once you start feeling constant gratitude for your things and your home through tidying up, you will start feeling relief and calm as if you are always protected by something larger than you.

29. What psychological change may tidiness bring to people?

A. Their confidence will become less.

B. They will become less optimistic.

C. They will become more confident.

D. Their self­image will be damaged.

30. Why does the author mention his own experience in the last paragraph?

A. To show off his wonderful speaking skills.

B. To explain how he has become a confident person.

C. To show his special taste in choosing suitable clothes.

D. To give an example of the benefit of tidiness.

31. What should people show to clothes they have never worn in the Kon Mari Method?

A. Regret. B. Worry.

C. Patience.           D. Gratitude.

32. What does the underlined word “threadbare” mean in the second paragraph?

A. Worn out.         B. Out of date.

C. Fashionable.D. Fancy.

  D

Languages have been coming and going for thousands of years, but in recent times there has been less coming and a lot more going. When the world was still populated by hunter­gatherers, small, tightly knit connected groups developed their own patterns of speech independent of each other. Some language experts believe that 10，000 years ago, when the world had just five to ten million people, they spoke perhaps 12，000 languages between them.

Soon afterwards, many of those people started settling down to become farmers, and their languages too became more settled and fewer in number. In recent centuries, trade, industrialization, the development of the nation­state and the spread of universal compulsory education, especially globalisation and better communications in the past few decades, all have caused many languages to disappear, and dominant languages such as English, Spanish and Chinese are increasingly taking over.

At present, the world has about 6，800 languages. The distribution of these languages is hugely uneven. The general rule is that mild zones have relatively few languages, often spoken by many people, while hot, wet zones have lots, often spoken by small numbers. Europe has only around 200 languages; the Americas about 1，000; Africa 2，400; and Asia and the Pacific perhaps 3，200, of which Papua New Guinea alone accounts for well over 800. The median number(中位数) of speakers is a mere 6，000, which means that half the world's languages are spoken by fewer people than that.

Already well over 400 of the total of 6，800 languages are close to extinction, with only a few elderly speakers left. Pick, at random, Busuu in Cameroon (eight remaining speakers), Chiapaneco in Mexico (150), Lipan Apache in the United States (two or three) or Wadjigu in Australia (one, with a question­mark): none of these seems to have much chance of survival.

33. What can we infer about languages in hunter­gatherer times?

A. They developed very fast.B. They had similar patterns.

C. They were large in number.D. They were closely connected.

34. Which of the following best explains “dominant” underlined in Paragraph 2?

A. Modern.  B. Powerful.C. Complex. D. Advanced.

35. How many languages are spoken by less than 6，000 people at present?

A. About 6，800.B. About 1，200.

C. About 3，400.          D. About 2，400.

第二节（共 5 小题；每小题 2.5 分，满分 12.5 分）

When you sleep, do you ever realize that you are dreaming? If yes, then you have had a lucid dream(清醒梦). __36__ Only some people are able to have them. Now, scientists have found ways to help more people to have lucid dreams, Live Science reported.

Denholm Aspy from the University of Adelaide in Australia found that certain skills are key to helping people have lucid dreams.

First, people can train themselves to figure out whether they are dreaming or not. For example, someone may look at a clock, look away, and then look back. __37__ Then, they might dream about this trick while sleeping. But in their dreams, the time on the clock may change very quickly. So people know they are dreaming.

Another trick is to wake up after five hours of sleep. __38__ During this time, repeat the words, “The next time I'm dreaming, I'll remember that I'm dreaming.” Then, go to bed again to enter rapid eye movement (REM，快速眼球运动) sleep. In REM sleep, people are more likely to be aware of their dreams.

Scientists found that those who used these tricks had a 17 percent success rate at having lucid dreams. __39__

In a lucid dream, people might study a hobby and then become better at it in real life, according to Aspy. For example, you might learn to play the piano in a lucid dream. __40__

A.Some people will need more time to fall asleep and have a dream.

B.  People learn new skills faster in a lucid dream.

C.  It is hard for most people to have a lucid dream.

D.The time should stay the same.

E.Then, your real­life piano skills might improve.

F. This was far higher than if they did nothing.

G.  Then, stay awake for a while.

Hunger

When I was a young boy, my mother would place spoonfuls of vegetables onto my plate whether I wanted them or not and the rule in our family was that we always had to clean our plates. However, I rarely saw my mother eat the vegetables herself. She always served us first. She seemed never hungry.

She worked for a rich lady in town, and I always assumed that the reason why she didn’t have our tasteless meals was that she had eaten meats and sweets in the rich lady’s kitchen. Our meals were boring, and there was never enough since there were ten of us — my parents plus eight children.

One afternoon my older sisters were sick, so they couldn’t take care of me. Therefore, my mother had no choice but to bring me with her. It was a long winter day and as my father hadn’t had much work, we had even less food than usual. So I was very excited to go to the rich woman’s house.

My mother placed me in a corner while she rolled out pie crust (饼皮). Then she cooked some meat, and by the afternoon, the pleasant smell filled the kitchen and was making its way into my empty stomach. Then, a bell rang in the kitchen and my mother told me, “Don’t move” and then left.

I tried to do as told, but then I thought it wouldn’t matter if I ate just one blackberry. So I put a single blackberry into my mouth. What an explosion of flavor! The wonderful taste hitting my empty stomach was more than I could handle! Soon I was throwing blackberries into my mouth with two hands! It wasn’t until I was staring at the empty bowl that I noticed the empty, unbaked pie crust sitting on the table waiting for the berries. I looked around for more berries, but there was none. Suddenly, I heard footsteps approaching, so I quickly hid into the cupboard (碗柜).

【答案】Just at the moment, my mother entered the kitchen, following a well-dressed lady. My mother excitedly discussed today’s special food with the lady. She was about to show her the dough and the blackberries in the bowl, at this point, they noticed that all the blackberries in the bowl were gone, which shocked my mother. The lady asked angrily whether she had eaten the blackberry, with my mother lowering her head in silence. The lady said you are always doing a good job. But you let me down today. Then the lady left.

After the lady left, I crept(爬) out of the cupboard with tears streaming down my face. I said to my mother, “I’m sorry, mom, I stole the blackberry. You made the blackberry so delicious that I couldn’t stop eating them. After listening to what the lady said, I know that you have been working hard for our family. It was my fault, and I’m willing to apologize and explain everything to the lady.” Then we went together.
