(2019·安徽江淮名校期中)Peggy Whitson's job demands a daily two­hour workout in a gym where weight has no meaning and the view changes at 17，000 miles an hour.
Whitson makes it look easy. At 57, she is the oldest woman to fly in space, breaking the record last November when she began her third long­term stay at the International Space Station. After returning home in September, 2017, the NASA astronaut felt matter­of­fact about the age milestone(里程碑)．
“It wasn't a record I was seeking for，”Whitson said.“I was 42 and 48 for my first two space flights. I feel lucky that I was able to get to do another one in my 50s. I don't think people should let age discourage them, even on those jobs that require some amount of physical fitness. The oldest man is John Glenn (at 77), and we've had male astronauts in their 60s before, so it's just a matter of time before women start flying in space at this age”．
On the earth, she stays fit by weightlifting, biking, playing basketball and water skiing. She shared what it's like to live in microgravity：“It's like you're in a swimming pool, but you don't have to worry about breathing.If I push off from one side, I'm going to float to the other side.Every direction feels exactly the same, which is really hard for your brain to grasp, but it's amazing how fast you adapt.
It's a big shock for the body to come back to Earth—everything is so heavy. We spend a lot of time getting used to being back in gravity again. Back pain was really the most dramatic for me this time. For me, coming home is harder than going up into space.”

There is a lot to learn about the creations of Beatrix Potter—not only is she the author and illustrator of one of the world's most famous children's books, The Tale of Peter Rabbit, but also a pioneering conservationist with the spirit of a scientist.
“Potter grew up as the daughter of a wealthy Victorian family，but along with her brother who filled an entire floor of their large house in London with all sorts of animals，” said Anne Lundin, a retired professor for the UW­Madison School of Library and Information Studies.
“As an adult，she was a frustrated botanical illustrator and scientist. That field was not open to her because she was female，” Lundin said.Potter was urged to turn the charming illustrations and stories she wrote in letters to children into books. She wrote 23 books in all—a body of work that has inspired plays, ballets, films and an astonishing amount of merchandise.
“The Tale of Peter Rabbit is probably the most famous children's book in the world，which was published in 1902 and has really stood the test of time.It's been translated into 36 languages. The parents and grandparents will share it with the next generation，” said Lundin.
Potter also made a mark on the world through her land conservation. “In many ways, she was like Peter Rabbit，venturing into a world of adventure and risk. She withdrew from London as soon as she started making some money on her books to the Lake District and became an extremely important farmer and conservationist. She preserved and passed on 15 farms and over 4，000 acres, which were given back to the country as gifts in the 20th century，” said Lundin.
“Even though she was born 150 years ago, she was amazingly modern—her embracing of the natural world，” commented Jennifer Blatchley Smith, an artistic director of the show Peter Rabbit Tales to celebrate the 150th anniversary of Potter's birth.

5．What helped Beatrix Potter to write The Tale of Peter Rabbit successfully?
A．Her life and work experiences.

D．Her interest in animals in childhood alone.
A　[推理判断题。根据倒数第二段中“she was like Peter Rabbit，venturing into a world of adventure and risk”，她像兔子彼得一样，在一个充满冒险和危险的世界中探险，可知，Beatrix Potter是以自己在现实中的生活和工作经历为基础来创作这本书的。故选A。]
6．What is Beatrix Potter?

B．An extremely important farmer and successful scientist.
C．A writer，conservationist and farmer.

C
(2019·辽宁沈阳交联体期中)My husband and I had been married nearly twenty­two years when I acquired Stevens­Johnson syndrome, a disorder where my immune system(免疫系统) responded to a virus by producing painful blisters(水疱). Although my long­term evaluation was good, I, who had been so fiercely independent, rapidly became absolutely helpless.
My husband, Scott, stepped up to the plate, taking care of kids and cooking dinners. He also became my personal caretaker, applying the medicine to all of my blisters because my hands couldn't do the job.Needless to say，I had negative emotions, bouncing from embarrassment to shame caused by total reliance on someone other than myself.
At one point when I had mentally and physically hit bottoms I remember thinking that Scott must somehow love me more than I could ever love him. With my illness，he had become the stronger one, and I the weaker one.And this disturbed me.
I recovered from my illness, but I couldn't seem to recover from the thought that I loved my husband less than he loved me.This seeming distinction in our love continued to annoy me for the year following my illness.
Then recently Scott and I went on a long bike ride.He's an experienced cyclist; I'm quite the green hand.At one point with a strong headwind and sharp pain building in my tired legs, I really thought I couldn't go any further. Seeing me struggle, Scott pulled in front of me and yelled over his shoulder，“Stay close behind me.”As I fell into the draft of his six­foot­three­inch frame and followed his steps, I discovered that my legs quit burning and I was able to catch my breath. My husband was pulling me along again. At this very moment I woke up to what I now believe: during these and other tough times，love has the opportunity to become stronger when one partner learns to lean on the other.
I pray my husband will always be strong and healthy.But if he should ever become the struggling one, whether on a bike ride or with an illness, I trust I'll be ready to call out to him: Stay close behind me—my turn to pull you along.
【语篇解读】　作者生病后，她的丈夫一直照顾、鼓励和支持她，给她帮助和力量；作者最后也发出感慨：倘若有一天角色互换，她也会同样给她的丈夫支持和力量。

B．Her husband's caring for her too much.
C．Her losing the previous independence.
D．Her suffering from illness and mental disorder.

Scientists think they have answered a mystery：How some ocean creatures got so huge so quickly.
A few million years ago, the largest whales，averaged about 15 feet long.Then seemingly overnight, one type of whale, the toothless baleen whale (须鲸类) became huge.Modern blue whales get as big as 100 feet. Nicholas Pyenson of the Smithsonian Natural History Museum said，“Why is that？”“It happened in the glance of an evolutionary eye, which makes it harder to figure out what happened，” said Graham Slater，lead author of the study. Their study has suggested an answer：Ice ages in the last 3 to 5 million years started it, changing the oceans and food supply for whales.
The researchers used fossil records of the smaller whales to create a family tree for baleen whales which include blue whales, humpbacks and right whales. Using computer simulations (模拟) and knowledge about how evolution works，they concluded that when the size changes started, the poles got colder, ice expanded and the water circulation in the oceans changed and winds shifted.Slater and Pyenson said cold water went deep and moved closer to the equator (赤道) and then eventually moved back up with small fish and other small animals that whales eat.
Baleen whales, which have no teeth, feed by eating huge amounts of fish they capture.Toothed whales, like sperm whales (抹香鲸), hunt individual fish, so the ocean changes that made food less evenly spread out didn't affect them as much. But baleen whales hunt schools of fish.
Olivier Lambert at the Royal Belgian Institute of Natural Sciences calls it “a really convincing situation”．But he said the lack of fossils in certain time periods is an issue.As oceans warm from man­made climate change，the seas will be more like it was when the whales were smaller and they will have a more difficult time surviving.
【语篇解读】　文章以鲸鱼为例分析了一些海洋动物快速变大的原因，提出了气候变化引起海洋变化，造成鲸鱼生存困难的现状，呼吁人们保护环境和动物。
12．What does the author mean by “It happened in the glance of an evolutionary eye” in the second paragraph?
A．The change of baleen whales happened too quickly.
B．The change of baleen whales was too difficult to explore.
C．Researchers paid little attention to the change of baleen whales.
D．Researchers thought the change of baleen whales was unimportant.
A　[句意理解题。根据下句“which makes it harder to figure out what happened”可知画线句子指这种变化在进化的发展中只是匆匆一瞥，形容其速度之快。A项正好表达了此意。]
13．What played the key role in baleen whales' becoming huge?
A．Man­made climate change.
B．Its eating a huge amount of fish.
C．The water circulation in the oceans.
D．The increase of food supply for whales.
D　[推理判断题。根据第二段最后一句、第三段最后一句和第四段中“But baleen whales hunt schools of fish.”可知由于海水流向和鲸鱼食物来源的变化，须鲸能捕获到鱼群，食物增多，体积变大。故选D。]
14．What do we know about sperm whales and blue whales according to the text?
A．Sperm whales eat more food.
B．Blue whales live much longer.
C．Sperm whales prefer to hunt schools of fish.
D．Blue whales usually swallow schools of fish.
D　[推理判断题。根据第二段中“the toothless baleen whale(须鲸类)became huge.Modern blue whales get as big as 100 feet.”和第四段中“Toothed whales，like sperm whales(抹香鲸)，hunt individual fish...But baleen whales hunt schools of fish.”可知sperm whales和blue whales的情况，blue whales属于baleen whales，能捕获鱼群。故选D。]
15．What can we infer from the last paragraph?
A．There are no whale fossils now.
B．The whales may become even bigger.
C．Global warming has threatened the whales.
D．Olivier Lamber thinks the study is perfect.
C　[推理判断题。根据最后一段最后一句可知由于气候变暖引起海洋变化，威胁鲸鱼的生存。故选C。]
第二节(共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分)
Choosing the Right Path to Be a “Better” Person
Life is a constant exercise in self­improvement. In the rush to achieve, the idea of being “better” can become lost sometimes. You may always wonder how to improve yourself and fulfill your dreams in an easier way. 16
Explore your talents.
Everybody has some outstanding skills or interests. So it's often necessary to be patient and try many things before you find one that suits you.
17 For example, people loving adventure may not be interested in the quiet chess club, but someone who enjoys other quiet activities might be.Determining who you enjoy being around may help you know what you'll enjoy.
18
No matter how much money you make, you will not be happy if you spend your entire life doing something you hate.It's important to at least devote some of your time to what makes you happy.
If you're particularly unhappy at your job, consider why. 19 If you feel your job isn't meaningful，or isn't in line with your values, consider finding another job.
Experience something new.
Research has shown that when we're in our comfort zone，we aren't as productive as we are when we step just beyond it. 20 Because of that, we may react slowly to our own positive experiences. It's important to have new experiences and interactions with others, even when those are a little scary. Doing so can help you achieve more.
A．Do what you love.
B．Here are some tips for you.
C．Register in a class you're interested in.
D．Humans adapt very quickly to positive events.
E．It's possible that some changes may change your feeling.
F．Similar types of people may be attracted to the same activities.
G．Try not to allow yourself to focus so much on a certain aspect of your life.
【语篇解读】　人生就是不断提升自我的过程，有时我们急于取得成功，却迷失了自我。本文就如何提升自己给出了一些建议。
16．B　[上文提到你可能想知道如何用更简单的方式提升自己，下文则给出了一些建议。由此可知，设空处承上启下。故B项符合语境。]
17．F　[本段最后一句提到，判断你喜欢跟谁在一起有助于你了解自己喜欢什么。由此可知，F项符合语境。故选F项。]
18．A　[本题考查标题句。根据该标题下的“It's important to at least devote some of your time to what makes you happy.”可知，花时间做自己喜欢的事很重要。由此可知，A项(做你喜欢的事)符合语境。]
19．E　[上文提出如果特别不喜欢现在的工作，考虑一下原因，下文则提出考虑换一份工作。 由此可知，E项(有时候作出一些改变也可以改变你的心情)符合语境。]
20．D　[本段主题是体验新事物。空格后说，正因为如此，我们可能对自己的积极的体验反应迟钝。D项(人类对积极的事件适应很快)正好解释了下文的现象。故选D项。]
第二部分　语言运用(共两节，满分30分)
第一节(共15小题；每小题1分，满分15分)
My two kids and I were at Dunkin' Donuts, meeting my grandfather for a cup of coffee.My boys were 2 and 4 then. When the naughty little kid 21 his icecream in the middle of the store, I turned to my grandfather for 22 . I was surprised to find him laughing. When I tried to talk to him about how 23 life with two young boys is, his reply was short, “Little kids， 24 problems.”
At the time, I felt a little angry. The 25 of raising my two boys didn't feel little.I sometimes felt overwhelmed (不知所措的) by their problems and needs. Still, I knew how to 26 them. I could calm my elder son down with his favourite CD and smiled at him in the rear­view mirror (后视镜). Back then, “fixing their problems” seemed like my 27 . I did it every day. And, in general, I could fix most things that annoy them.
Those boys are 24 and 22 now. And, 28 my grandfather said, their problems are bigger than they were 20 years ago. And one thing I'm 29 at this stage of parenting is how to be a mom who doesn't help them. Worried about my elder son recently, I repeated my 30 to him, but he told me to stop—told me that I wasn't being 31 and that I needed to let him be.
Honestly, I miss the days when I felt so helpful. But I also feel 32 that I've raised an adult healthy enough to 33 his own life.And so, in a 34 reversal(互换), it is my son who now calms me down， 35 me and then smiles at me from his rear­view mirror.

第二节(满分25分)
阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。续写的词数应为150左右。
I should have been born with my fingers permanently glued to a keyboard.Since I was five, I've known that I want to be a professional writer: a journalist, a novelist, a modernday Shakespeare, maybe.In my freshman year I tried to figure out what A Midsummer Night's Dream and The Tragedy of Julius Caesar were about. Macbeth was much easier to understand in my sophomore year (大二年级)．
However, I'm practically addicted to books, whether I'm reading or writing them. I can't go a single day without writing something.I have made it a rule to pick up a pen and just let my thoughts out every day.
I can be inspired by anything: an expression, a song and a movie.Once I get inspired, it's like the wheels turning faster and faster as I think out one possible story after another.
My family is so widespread that whenever I meet with a cousin or an aunt I only vaguely (模糊地) remember; I tell him or her I'm a writer because I know it will distinguish me from all the other kids in the family and make me memorable.I told my relatives about the stories I used to write as a child，the projects I'm working on now, and why I'm working so hard to make a breakthrough in the competitive world of publishing.One aunt hugged me and told me，“Just don't forget about the rest of us when you become the next J. K. Rowling.”
Smiling, I replied, “Don't worry, I won't.” I am confident that I will become the next J. K. Rowling.I have the ambition, the means, and the talent. My English and history teachers don't praise my writing and tell me I have an innate (与生俱来的) writing talent even though they know how passionate I am about writing, and how that passion slips through my fingertips to the paper.
Paragraph 1：
I don't really know why I love writing so much.__________________________
_________________________________________________________________
_________________________________________________________________
Paragraph 2：
Maybe I just want to leave my mark on the world since I can't sing to create a great work of art. ______________________________________________________
_________________________________________________________________
_________________________________________________________________
【参考范文】
Paragraph 1：
I don't really know why I love writing so much. I just do. I always feel that there is something in my mind about putting a story down on paper for friends across the globe to read and understand, and about finding just the right words to describe what I can see so clearly in my head, which attracts me like a beautiful song. Writing makes me who I am.Through writing I have found true happiness.
Paragraph 2：
Maybe I just want to leave my mark on the world since I can't sing to create a great work of art. Although I am a pretty good actor, acting doesn't seem like the right path for me, so I've chosen writing to make a breakthrough in this world. I am a novelist，journalist and graduate of Columbia University. How nice it sounds!
