    Brandon Olsen and Tylor Fritz of Hometown Sanitation(公共卫生) left gifts for three sisters who waved to them each Thursday after learning that one of them,3-year-old Rose,had been fighting cancer.
    The men also gave their parents free garbage service for one year.
    “When they did that,it was a few weeks before the diagnosis(诊断) when every day just felt so impossible,” said Rose’s mother,Angie Evenson,of Blue Earth,Minnesota.“Nothing in reality changes Rose’s diagnosis.But what they did makes us feel we are truly not alone in this fight.”
    With binoculars(双筒望远镜) in hand,Rose and her two sisters,Grace,5 and Sophia,2 sat by the window and waved at their garbage men,Olsen and Fritz,as they drove by on their weekly route.
    Olsen,29,and Fritz,24,told ABC News that the girls’ smiling faces are what they look forward to while working.They even left Halloween candy for the girls this year to show their appreciation.They hope that more and more people can understand and support their work.
    But weeks later,Evenson wrote Olsen and Fritz a note explaining that little Rose wouldn’t be able to wave to them for a while since she’d be undergoing chemotherapy(化疗).Rose had been diagnosed with Stage 4 kidney cancer in September.
    “As a father of three,it changed my outlook on things,” Olsen said.“It opened my eyes...you don’t know what someone else is going through.”
    Fritz said he cried when he read the note.“I got to the chemo part and there were tears running down my face,” he recalled.“I don’t have any children of my own,but I can imagine if someone very close to me is diagnosed as cancer,I’ll be heartbroken.”
    “Rose is being treated at Sanford Children’s Hospital in Sioux Falls,South Dakota.She will miss a few more Thursdays,when she can wave to her garbage men,but her chemo sessions will be switched to Mondays soon and she’ll be back by the window early next year.I have confidence in Rose’s recovery.” Her mother said.
    语篇解读 这是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了来自Hometown Sanitation的两名清洁工,在得知三岁的小女孩罗斯被诊断为癌症后,给予她以及她的家人很多鼓励和支持。

    In 1953,a mountain climber reported seeing a bar-headed goose soar over the peak of Mount Everest(珠穆朗玛峰).It was thought impossible.Now researchers who raised 18 of the geese—named for the black stripes on the backs of their heads—have shown the birds really fly so high.
    The team trained the youngsters to fly in a large wind tunnel wearing backpacks and face masks full of sensors that recorded their heart rate,blood oxygen levels,temperature,and metabolic rate—how many calories they burned per hour.The researchers simulated(模拟) 10w-,medium-,and high-altitude conditions by altering the concentration of oxygen supplied to face masks worn by each goose as it flew in the tunnel.
    Birds already have a better heart and lungs than mammals for sustained physical activity.And researchers knew that bar-headed geese have even larger,thinner lungs that let them breathe more deeply and an even bigger heart to pump more oxygen to muscles than other birds.
    The wind tunnel experiments showed that when the concentration of oxygen was at its lowest—like the 7% found on top of Mount Everest versus 21% at sea level—the geese’s heart rate and frequency of wing beats remained the same even as their metabolic rate dropped.Somehow,the birds managed to cool down their blood—the measured blood temperature dropped so it could take in more oxygen,the researchers report today in eLife.This cooling likely helps compensate for the very thin air,the team says.
    Although well trained,the birds were only willing to stay in the air a few minutes or less when wearing their backpacks and flying at “high” altitudes.So it’s not clear whether these adaptations alone are what make it possible to fly the 8 hours it takes to climb over Mount Everest.But those few minutes showed these geese really could fly over the top of Mount Everest.
    语篇解读 本文为说明文。登山者报告说看到一只长颈鹅翱翔在珠穆朗玛峰的顶峰,为了确认其真实性,研究人员养了18只这种鹅,并在大型风洞中训练它们飞行。结果发现这种鹅可以在氧气极低的情况下飞行,但停留时间只有几分钟,因此能否飞过珠峰尚不明确。

    28.Why did the researchers raise 18 bar-headed geese and train them?
    A.To test the flying height and speed of them.
    B.To confirm they could fly over Mount Everest.
    C.To observe them flying through the wind tunnel.
    D.To see how many calories they burned per hour.
    答案 B
    解析 推理判断题。根据第一段前两句可知,一名登山者看到一只斑头鹅翱翔在珠穆朗玛峰上空。人们认为这是不可能的。结合第一段最后一句和最后一段中的“So it’s not clear whether these adaptations alone are what make it possible to fly the 8 hours it takes to climb over Mount Everest.”可推断出,研究人员饲养这种鹅是为了证实这种鹅是否能飞过珠峰。故选B。
    29.What can we learn from the wind tunnel experiment?
    A.It was carried out at very high altitude.
    B.The geese managed to breathe less when their blood decreased.
    C.The geese could live through the lowest concentration of oxygen.
    D.It shows the geese could fly at high altitude for long.
    答案 C
    解析 推理判断题。根据第四段中的内容可知,风洞实验表明,当氧气浓度最低时,鹅的心率和翅膀振动频率保持不变,即使它们的新陈代谢率下降。研究人员今天在eLife杂志上报道说,……这种降温可能有助于补偿空气的稀薄。结合第五段中的“Although well trained,the birds were only willing to stay in the air a few minutes or less...(尽管训练有素,但这些鸟只愿意在空中待上几分钟)”可综合推断出,鹅可以在最低浓度的氧气中生存。故选C。
    30.What still puzzles scientists about the geese?
    A.Whether they have super hearts and lungs.
    B.Whether they have muscles pumped more oxygen to.
    C.Whether they are willing to wear backpacks and face masks.
    D.Whether they can manage to fly 8 hours to climb over Mount Everest.
    答案 D
    解析 推理判断题。根据最后一段中的“So it’s not clear whether these adaptations alone are what make it possible to fly the 8 hours it takes to climb over Mount Everest.” 可知,目前尚不清楚的是,只有这些适应性变化能否飞行8小时爬上珠穆朗玛峰。分析选项可知,D项(它们是否能飞8小时飞越珠穆朗玛峰)符合题意。故选D。
    31.Where does the text most probably come from?
    A.A science fiction.
    B.A climbing guide.
    C.A travel brochure.
    D.A science report.
    答案 D
    解析 推理判断题。第一段中提到登山者报告说看到一只长颈鹅翱翔在珠穆朗玛峰的顶峰。为了证实这种可能,研究人员养了18只这种鹅,并在大型风洞中训练它们飞行。结果发现这种鹅可以在氧气极低的情况下飞行,但停留时间只有几分钟,因此能否飞过珠峰尚不明确。由此可知本文属于科普文章,可能在科学报道中看到。故选D。
    D
    Water is a necessity of life.Rain,especially,helps plants grow and stay green.But too much rain,especially in cities,can lead to flooding.That can cause waste water systems to overflow and send pollutants into rivers and other waterways.To fight the problem,several cities in the United States are starting programs like rooftop gardens.
    A team at the University of the District of Columbia in the nation’s capital has created a garden on the top of one school building.The garden holds many kinds of plants to help absorb rainwater and grow food at the same time.Architect David Bell has designed five “green roofs” for the university.He says he is excited about the project because “it meant doing something more than just dealing with storm water management.It took advantage of a resource above the city and these flat roofs that aren’t doing anything really became something that was about urban agriculture”.Rainwater is collected in large containers and sent through a system that waters the rooftop garden.The roof is filled with green life that appeals to insects.
    “In cities,you don’t have that many spaces to choose from and so rooftops are just (unused) spaces,” says Caitlin Arlotta.She is a student in the school’s Urban Agriculture program.The project is part of a research program to see which plants do well on rooftops.The researchers are looking at plants including strawberries,tomatoes and sweet potatoes.The university also has other green spaces.“We also have our own farm experiments,” Arlotta said.“Within each of those growing systems,we want to be able to tell people which sorts of these crops grow the best.”
    Sandy Farber Bandier helps run UDC’s Master Gardener program.It seeks to improve cities and make them beautiful by training people to become Master Gardeners.She says she’s been surprised by the garden’s output.“My biggest surprise was that we produced 4,250 pounds of produce the first year and was able to spread that to people in need.” She also likes being able to show people who live in D.C.and others beyond the nation’s capital what and how food can be grown on a rooftop.“This is the future for food.You grow it here,you prepare it in a commercial kitchen,you distribute through farmers markets,food trucks,and then you recycle.”
    语篇解读 本文是说明文,介绍了美国的几个城市正在启动屋顶花园等项目。在大学校舍的顶部建造花园,种植多种植物吸收雨水,利用城市上空的一种资源,已经成为城市农业的一部分。

    32.What do we know about the rooftop gardens?
    A.Rooftop gardens are very common in average neighbourhoods.
    B.There are many sorts of plants there which help take in rainwater.
    C.They’re playing an important role in the city’s food supply.
    D.Rooftop gardens are no more than containers to collect rainwater.
    答案 B
    解析 细节理解题。根据第二段中的“The garden holds many kinds of plants to help absorb rainwater and grow food at the same time.”可知,花园里有多种植物,可以帮助吸收雨水。故选B。
    33.What can we infer from Paragraph 3?
    A.Rooftops can offer enough spaces to plant crops.
    B.Many plants like strawberries can grow well on rooftops.
    C.Some university students are participating in the Urban Agriculture program.
    D.The plants in rooftop gardens are attractive to many insects.
    答案 C
    解析 推理判断题。根据第三段的内容可知,许多大学生正在参与这项城市农业计划。故选C。
    34.How does Sandy Farber Bandier feel about the future of rooftop gardens?
    A.Confident. B.Doubtful.
    C.Worried. D.Ambiguous.
    答案 A
    解析 推理判断题。根据最后一段最后两句Sandy Farber Bandier说的话“这是食品的未来。你在这里种植,在商业厨房里准备,通过农贸市场分发,食品卡车运输,然后回收利用”可推断出,她对于屋顶花园的未来很有信心。故选A。
    35.What is the best title for the text?
    A.Rainwater Necessity for Plant Life
    B.Green Roofs—The Future of Urban Agriculture
    C.The United States’ Agriculture Program
    D.Rooftop Gardens—Food Paradise

    第二节 (共5小题;每小题2.5分,满分12.5分)
    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。
    36 One day,when I was perhaps six years old,I was walking with my father on a crowded street.All of a sudden,the normal flow of pedestrian traffic backed up as people tried to avoid a large object on the sidewalk.To my astonishment,the object turned out to be a human being,a man lying unconscious against a building. 37 Certainly no one made eye contact.As we walked by,my father—the model of a loving,caring gentleman—pointed to a bottle in a paper bag and told me that the poor soul on the sidewalk just needed to sleep it off.Then the drunken man began to murmur senselessly.My father warned me not to go near,saying “You never know how he’ll react.”
    38 I had spent the previous 12 months travelling in poor Asian cities,but even by those standards this was a scene of misery.In addition to being desperately poor,the locals had to live in the extremely hot climate,ridiculously huge crowds and a fairly strong wind blowing dust everywhere.Suddenly a man carrying a huge bag of peanuts called out in pain and fell to the ground. 39 A half dozen sellers ran from their stands to help,leaving unattended what might have been the totality of their .One put a blanket under the man’s head;another opened his shirt;a third questioned him carefully about the pain;a fourth fetched water;a fifth kept onlookers from crowding around too closely;a sixth ran for help. 40 The performance could have passed for a final exam at a paramedic(护理人员) school.
    A.I then witnessed an astonishing scene.
    B.Not one of the passers-by seemed to notice that it was a man.
    C.This was totally different from the bitter experience I had in New York.
    D.Within minutes a doctor arrived,and two other locals joined in to assist.
    E.I soon came to see that day’s lesson as basic knowledge for a New Yorker.
    F.I’ll always remember a lesson that I learned as a boy growing up in New York City.
    G.Yet many years later I had a very different experience while visiting a market in Rangoon.
    语篇解读 这是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了作者在纽约的经历:人们看到躺在地上的人,匆匆走过,漠不关心;在亚洲的一个贫困地区,人们遇到遇困之人却愿意不顾自己的摊位对别人施予援助,两种经历形成了鲜明的对比。

    36.答案 F
    解析 空后一句“大概在我六岁左右的一天,我和父亲正在拥挤的街道上行走”与F项(我将永远记得我还是一个孩子的时候在纽约长大学到的一个教训)承接自然,从下文的“when I was perhaps six years old”可知,作者在回忆过去和选项中的“I learned as a boy growing up in New York City”相对应。故选F。
    37.答案 B
    解析 下文“Certainly no one made eye contact.(当然也没人和他进行眼神交流)”与B项(似乎没有一个过路人注意到那是一个男人)承接自然,上下文是并列关系,no one和not one是关键词。故选B。
    38.答案 G
    解析 空后一句“在过去的12个月里,我一直在亚洲一些贫穷的城市里旅行,但即使按照那些标准,这也是个悲惨的场景”与G项(然而,多年以后,当我在仰光的一个市场上参观时,我有了一次完全不同的经历)承接自然,选项在此起开启下文的作用,Rangoon和Asian cities是关键词。故选G。
    39.答案 A
    解析 空后一句“六个卖家从他们的摊位上跑过来帮忙,留下或许是他们全部身家的东西无人看管”与A项(然后,我看到了一个惊人的场景)承接自然,下文是陈述所看到的内容。故选A。
    40.答案 D
    解析 上文提到的是六个人的行动,与D项(几分钟之后,一名医生到了,另外两个当地人也来帮忙)承接自然,上下文话题一致,都讲述人们迅速过来帮忙的场景。故选D。

    第二节 (满分25分)
    阅读下面短文,根据其内容写一篇60词左右的内容概要。
    Studies have shown that children from poor families have more difficulty in school than other boys and girls.Children with higher socioeconomic roots seem better prepared and perform better on school tests.
    Now,American researchers may have found a biological reason for that difference.They found differences in the brains of students who had low standardized test scores.Their brains had less gray matter and their temporal lobes(颞叶) developed more slowly than the other children.The findings were reported in the journal JAMA Pediatrics.Temporal lobes and gray matter are very important brain areas,says researcher Barbara Wolfe.“The brain areas are critical in the sense that they keep developing until individuals are well into their adolescence or early 20s,and critical in the sense that they are important for executive function,” she said.
    Researchers studied brain images of nearly 400 children and young adults.The youngest subjects were four years old.The oldest were 22.Researchers looked for a connection between the person’s socioeconomic status and his or her test results.On average,young people from poor families had test scores between 3 and 4 points below what is expected for their age group.The poorest students scored between 8 and 10 points below the developmental norm.
    Ms Wolfe says there are several reasons why poorer students often have lower scores.One reason could be poor children do not get the food they need for healthy development.Poor parents are less likely to stimulate their children’s brains through talk,play,and activities.Ms Wolfe also blames the “stress that parents face in trying to deal with poverty,putting food on the table”.The researchers say that up to 20 percent of the achievement gap,or difference in test performance,could be tied to poverty.
    Ms Wolfe suggests early action may improve the brain development of children living in poverty.Reaching out to children when they are very young could help raise their test scores and academic performance when they are older.


    参考范文
    Recently,a study reveals the link between a child’s socioeconomic background and his academic behavior; that is,poorer students usually have lower scores than those from richer families.(要点1) Less gray matter in their brain may contribute to their learning disability.(要点2) Besides,family pressure,food shortage and lack of stimulus also account for it.(要点3) Fortunately,it is proposed that early action is likely to promote the brain development of those poor students.(要点4)
