When Ryad Alsous arrived in England, he knew one thing: he wanted to keep bees. The insects had been a major part of his life in Syria, and fleeing his war-torn homeland, it was a precious certainty amid so much chaos.

As a lecturer at the University of Damascus, Ryad had built a respected reputation for his research on Syrian bees. With over 500 hives, he produced over ten tons of honey every year. Fleeing his country in 2013, he lost everything.

Yet even with all his knowledge and experience, Ryad didn't know if his dream would be possible in the UK. “I found that there is a lot of rain and the temperature isn't very high. All the time I was thinking, How can I set up another project here?”

The wet weather wasn't Ryad's only challenge. The language barrier and a vastly overqualified CV made it difficult to find work. Eventually, Ryad volunteered at the Huddersfield Beekeepers' Association, but he was still without a colony of his own. Finally, Facebook brought him into contact with a woman in Manchester who was willing to donate an entire colony of rare British black bees.

“In one year, I was able to split the colony she gave me into seven. I realised that the beekeeping project could become very profitable and successful in the UK. "

Soon, Ryad found himself with 17 hives, but he wasn't finished yet. His inner teacher was itching to get out. Through City of Sanctuary, a British refugee charity, Ryad began to run beekeeping workshops for refugees and job seekers. The Buzz Project was born.

Today, the Buzz Project houses 14 hives, where Ryad shares his expertise. It has started to bear fruit. Last year, they produced half a ton of honey （around 1, 000 jars）. But for Ryad, the most important thing is bringing people together.

“We have local people, jobseekers and volunteers, in addition to refugees. All of them work together doing the same job. The exchange between the groups, the information and skills, helps them integrate very well and improve their language skills, ” he says.

4. Why did Ryad come to England?

A. To keep bees.   B. To do research.

C. To seek shelter.   D. To run business.

5. Which factor posed a challenge to Ryad at first?

A. The hot weather.      B. His poor English.

C. His inadequate qualification.   D. The cultural differences.

6. What does the underlined sentence mean?

A. He wanted to share his beekeeping skills.

B. He decided to establish a beekeeping school.

C. He wanted to expand his business.

D. He decided to find a teaching job.

7. Which of the following can best describe Ryad's character?

A. Persistent and charitable.

B. Ambitious and reliable.

C. Cautious and responsible.

D. Independent and respectable.

C

Research has shown that disrupting one's natural “morning lark” or “night owl” tendency can result in immoral behavior at work.

Who doesn't love a flexible work schedule? Being able to make your own hours, come in when you're ready and leave when you're done, step out to attend a child's presentation at school, have a midday appointment, or even squeeze in a quick workout or nap as a guaranteed pick-me-up-flexibility greatly improves one's quality of life.

The benefits don't stop there, however. Research has shown that having flexible work hours actually makes one a better person. How so? It's been found that disrupted sleep patterns-in the form of having to act outside of normal inclination to be a morning “lark” or a night “owl”-can result in strange, unethical, and out-of-line behavior. Science journalist Linda Geddes said, “If you don't get enough sleep, research suggests you are more likely to have unethical behavior, such as being mean, bullying your fellow employees or falsifying receipts. But it's not just owls: the larks tend to behave more unethically in the evening, and owls in the morning. So ideally, you want to introduce flexible working. "

Employers would be wise to allow their employees to start whenever they feel ready-whether it's at the crack of dawn or at 11 a. m. , and to allow breaks or pauses in the day as needed-because that would mean better productivity, performance, and behavior.

This shift is already happening with the New York Times recently reporting that 27 percent of US employers now offer the flexibility to work outside normal business hours, up from 22 percent in 2014; and 68 percent allow telecommuting as needed （up from 54 percent in 2014）. With the national unemployment rate at its lowest in 50 years, employers are having to become more competitive in what they offer workers, and flex-hours seem like a no-brainer, highly beneficial to all.

8. What is mainly talked about in Paragraph 2?

A. Ways to improve life quality.

B. People's activities in their free time.

C. Methods to get a flexible work schedule.

D. The advantages of flexibility in work time.

9. What does the underlined word “inclination” in Paragraph 3 mean?

A. Judgment.   B. Tendency.  C. Reaction.   D. Choice.

10. What is the effect to change people's sleep pattern according to Geddes?

A. They will show their nature more easily.

B. They tend to suffer from sleep problems.

C. They tend to behave immorally in their work.

D. They will get more flexibility in working time.

11. What do the figures in the last paragraph indicate?

A. The unemployment rate is increasing.

B. Employers are getting more free time.

C. Flexible working has been creating more jobs.

D. More employers adopt a flexible work schedule.

D

As facts prove, when a mother sits in the passenger seat while a teen learns to drive, the teen's brain activity can be changed. For the study, researchers came up with a driving simulation（模拟）test that encourages risk-taking behavior in teens.

Twenty-five teens were asked to pass the simulation test in the shortest possible time. In the simulation, there are 26 intersections（交叉路口）that teens need to pass through. Each intersection provides a choice to stop at a yellow light, which could delay the driver for three seconds, or finish the simulation faster by speeding through the yellow light.

If the drivers don't crash, they'll finish earlier; if not, there is a six-second delayto their time of completion. The study required teens to go through the simulation on their own as well as under Mum's watch.

The results show that when teens drive alone, they drive past the yellow light 55 percent of the time. However, if Mum is present, racing past the yellow light is seen at a decreased rate of 45 percent. In addition, the study found that driving alone caused changes in the teens' brains, causing an increase of blood flow towards the reward center of the brain. If Mums were present, blood flow to the brain's reward center increased when they made safer driving decisions.

Researchers think that parents play an important role in helping their children to make more thoughtful decisions. Sarah Helfinstein, a researcher from the University of Maryland, said, “Basically, they're being influenced by what they expect the wish of the other person to be. "

12. What were the teens asked to do in the driving simulation test?

A. To stop at the yellow light.

B. To finish the test as quickly as possible.

C. To make as few mistakes as possible.

D. To go through the intersection safely.

13. What happened to the teens when they were driving alone?

A. They completed the test 6 seconds early.

B. Their brain's reward center became less active.

C. More blood flowed towards their brain's reward center.

D. They were less likely to race past the yellow light.

14. From the last paragraph, how did Sarah Helfinstein present her ideas?

A. By giving further explanation to the study

B. By adding new evidence to the study

C. By offering a different opinion on the study

D. By expressing her doubts about the result of the study

15. What can we learn from the driving simulation test?

A. Teens shouldn't drive alone.

B. Teens learn to drive quickly with Mum.

C. Teens are influenced by Mum's driving style.

D. Teens drive more safely with Mum in a car.

第二节: 阅读下面短文, 从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。

Is your key or phone missing a dozen times a day, or can't you find the TV remote until ten minutes after a favorite show has begun? Such faults might be accompanied by a nagging fear: Is something wrong with me? Probably not. __16__ But for the most part, people can overcome the tendency to misplace things. Here is some advice.

When you put something down, say its location. __17 __You'd say, “I'm setting my mouse to the right of my computer. ” And saying that, either in your mind or out loud, focuses your attention on where you put it, upping the chances that you'll remember its location later.

Make up a song or rhyme. __18__ You could make up a rhyme, or sub in your own lyrics to a catchy song. 'Head, Shoulders, Knees and Toes, ' and be sung into “My remote is sitting by the lamp. By the lamp. ”

Take pictures. Ever wander around the parking lot because you can't find your car? Take a picture of your parking spot. The same advice applies to lots of things: Photograph all those spots where you store easy-to-lose objects. When you can't find them, pull up the photo.

__19 __That might mean placing a basket by your front door where you drop your keys and wallet immediately upon entering your home, or labelling one drawer as the scissors drawer. Then, at the end of the day, “scan the areas where you've been, find the items that need to be taken back home, and return them to their spots. Be kind to yourself. It's certainly understandable if you're frustrated with your tendency to misplace things. But if you keep beating yourself up about and start to think that there's something wrong with you, and you get anxious about that. When your thoughts spiral in such a manner, you're even less likely to be able to focus and keep track of your possessions. __20__

A. Set up a routine.

B. Make your belongings stand out.

C. So, remember to give yourself a break.

D. It's a common occurrence and certainly annoying.

E. There are many gadgets designed to keep track of items.

F. Turn keeping track of your items into an opportunity to be creative.

G. One way to be more mindful of where your things are is to verbalize where you put them.

六、概要写作

阅读下面的文章, 写出一片60字左右的概要。（字数要求50到70之间）

On a damp, boring, stay-in-house kind of day, I was a 4-year-old artist armed with a new treasure: my own big box of crayons（蜡笔）. Somehow, the usual paper wasn’t special enough for these 64 perfect, sweet-smelling sticks of vivid color. I looked around for a bigger canvas. If only there were hidden walls. Walls like the ones in Mom and Dad's closet.

Slipping quietly down the hall to the bedroom, I stood on tiptoe to reach the string for the closet light. Words and images filled my mind faster than my hands could make them.

A brilliant rainbow was seen on one wall, with a cheery golden sun peeking out from above. Below, a giant shade tree supported a swing for stick-figure children. Around them, flowers bloomed everywhere.

My masterpiece! All my very own magic! I look in the walls, the colors and the brightness. Joy swelled inside me. But as my creativity wound down, a thought popped up: I've got to show Mom! Suddenly I was still.

Mom called out, “Dinner's ready. ” After a short time, her footsteps approached, and then finally, the closet door opened. I stood nervously in the corner.

Mom breathed in sharply, then stood frozen. Only her eyes moved as she slowly looked over my masterpiece. She was quiet for a long, long time. I didn't dare breathe.

Finally, she turned to me.

“I like it, ” she said, “No, I love it! I feel I have a new closet!”

Now, 45 years later, my childhood artwork is still there. And in my own house, the closet walls are masterpieces, too, created by my own daughters when they were little girls.

Every time I open a closet door, I remember that, as big as that box of crayons and whitewalls seemed when I was little, my mother's love was the biggest thing of all.

六、概要写作

One day when I was little, I created a beautiful picture on the walls in parents' closet. Although satisfied with it, I couldn't imagine mom's reaction. Instead of criticizing me for ruining the closet, mom thought highly of my artwork. Now I understand how much she loves me and I do the same to my children to develop their creativity.
