After he retired, Chan Jae Lee, who lives in Brazil, decided to spend his days taking care of his two young grandchildren, driving them back and forth to school and taking the opportunity to spend some quality time with them. But when Lee’s daughter moved her family to Korea, he was left with a gaping hole in his life. “All of a sudden, I had nothing to do and I missed them terribly,” Lee said.
In 2015, Lee’s third grandchild was born to his son Ji. He traveled to New York to meet the baby and it was there that Ji suggested his dad begin drawing pictures for his grandkids and posting them on Instagram as a way to keep in touch. “I liked the idea and found a purpose to draw and I learned how to stay in touch with my grandkids around the world,” Lee said.
Lee shares new pictures daily, which are watercolors of toys, vivid landscapes and imaginative animals— all of them are full of Lee’s imagination. And he draws birthday messages and his favourite places in Korea, and uses his paintings to teach the kids about important Korean traditions. Right now, Lee is able to use his art project to create a bond with the youngest members of his family.
Lee has no formal training in art and he teaches himself how to use different techniques to draw, but fans have fallen in love with his pictures. “The reaction was amazing. I couldn’t have imagined it in my wildest dreams,” Lee said. “What started as a small family project has drawn great attention.” He is called Grandpa Chan by his followers and achieves fame.
Lee has even been able to sell some drawings online to help fund more trips to see his grandchildren, but the biggest reward for his Instagram influence has been the reaction he’s gotten from his followers. “Seeing what I’ve done, many people start to reconnect to their own passion for drawing and painting and many people share their stories about their grandparents and parents,” Lee said.
24．What do we know about Grandpa Chan?
A．He moved to Korea after his retirement.
B．He was unable to go back to his hometown.
C．He came up with an idea to become famous.
D．He was lonely after his grandchildren left Brazil.
25.．Which of the following can best describe Chan Jae Lee?
A．Humorous and smart.
B．Talented and creative.
C．Sociable and reliable.
D．Helpful and hard-working.
26．What do Lee’s words in Paragraph 4 show?
A．His art project becomes very popular.
B．His family supports him in achieving fame.
C．His painting style has changed a lot.
D．His fans admire him for his sticking to his dream.
27．What can we learn from the last paragraph?
A．People feel very inspired by Lee’s works.
B．Lee makes a fortune by selling his paintings.
C．Lee gives the young advice about realizing dreams.
D．People have improved their skills after seeing Lee’s works.

Durian(榴莲) is probably the smelliest fruit in the world, letting out an unusual unpleasant smell which would make anyone bring up. However, nobody was aware of what gave this fruit its unique smell, so a team of researchers from Singapore decided to take a look at its genome (基因组) and find out.
Durian is well-known throughout Southeast Asia as the king of fruits, mostly because of its awful appearance and smell. However, the origin of this unpleasant smell was unknown, so researchers decided to map the genome of the fruit, and find the gene that controlled it. A group of genes, volatile sulfur compounds (含硫化合物), became very active in the fruit, and they were found responsible for resulting in the unpleasant smell.
The fruit confuses everyone with a sulfuric smell, like rotten onions and ingredients. The smell lasts long, mostly because the fruit contains more volatile sulfur compounds. Other species usually benefit from two gene copies at most, but durian has four, leading to the striking smell.
However, this smell might be an advantage for durian in the wild. Although we find it unpleasant, many animals might be attracted by it. If they eat the fruit, then they can easily spread its seeds everywhere, thus contributing to the distribution of the species.
The mapping of the durian genome also showed some other information on the species. First of all, the fruit has an impressive number of genes, namely 46,000. Also, with the help of these genes, they saw how it evolved, and discovered it was related to the cacao tree. All the other discoveries have been published in the journal Nature Genetics.
Despite the striking smell, many people actually enjoy eating the fruit. However, not all durian species are edible, and some of them may even cause damage to our health, Even so, the fruit is often imported, significantly contributing to the economy.
28. What give durian its unique smell?
A. Onions nearby. B. Two gene copies.
C. Rotten ingredients in it. D. Volatile sulfur compounds.
29. What does the underlined word “evolved” in Paragraph 5 probably mean?
A. Developed. B. Escaped. C. Predicted. D. Tolerated.
30. What can we infer from the text?
A. No birds enjoy eating durian.
B. Durian can be planted all over the world.
C. Some of durian species can not be eaten.
D. Durian has no relationship with the cacao tree.
31. What's the best title for the text?
A. What's Durian?
B. The Influence of the Smell
C. The Distribution of Durian
D. The Mystery of the Unpleasant Smell of Durian
D
There's a song by the great Jamaican singer Bob Marley called So Much Trouble In The World. Marley understood that part of the reason why there are so many problems in the world is the lack of tolerance between people. The UN understands this too --- that's why it made Nov 16th "International Day for Tolerance".
But first of all, what is tolerance? According to French philosopher Voltaire," tolerance is the consequence of humanity. We are all formed of frailty (脆弱) and error; let us pardon each other's fool --- that is the first law of nature."
Very often, people don't realize that they're intolerant. This is because intolerance has a lot to do with ignorance. For example, the UN's campaign is in part about the treatment of females by males. But often, the behavior of men toward women is intolerant because men don't put themselves in the shoes of women.
It's worth thinking a little about the words "tolerance" and "intolerance". Are they the best words to describe the evils of which we're speaking here? To agree to be "tolerant" of someone isn't necessarily a very respectful thing. When someone is tolerated, it implies that there's something wrong with them.
Still, what Voltaire said stands: we humans are not perfect and this weakness is something that we all share. That's the reason we should be tolerant. It's a little like generosity. We can give things to another person, and we can also give our forgiveness.
32. What's the purpose of the UN "International Day For Tolerance"?
A. To arouse people's awareness of tolerance among people.
B. To celebrate the founding of the UN.
C. To solve the problem of global warming.
D. To change peopled opinion towards globalization.
33. Why do men behave intolerantly towards women?
A. Because men don't realize the purpose of the UN.
B. Because men are physically stronger than women.
C. Because men don't appreciate the shoes of women.
D. Because men are not willing to understand women.
34. Why is it meaningless to use the words "tolerance" and "intolerance"?
A. Because they are hard to pronounce in English.
B. Because they don't express the exact meaning people refer to.
C. Because they can't be translated into other languages.
D. Because they can't be used in a respectful way.
35. In what sense is "tolerance" similar to "generosity"?
A. Humans are advised to treat others better.
B. Humans tend to find faults in others.
C. Humans need to give something to others.
D. Humans will change their attitudes to others.
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。
Move to the Music
Music helps us exercise, but why does it have this effect? 36.________ The first is simple: Music distracts us. When we listen to a song we like, our brain pays attention to the music. For example, after we exercise for 20 minutes, our body might be tired. But we may not feel this immediately while listening to music. So we exercise a little longer.
Music also motivates us. When we hear dance music, for example, we naturally start to move to the beat. An upbeat song also puts us in a good mood, so we feel happier. This gives us energy and helps us exercise longer. 37.________ Songs in the range of 120-140 beats per minute(BPM)are the best, says sports psychologist Dr. Costas Karageorghis.
38._________ Its leading researcher Fritz put 61 people in small groups. They all then exercised twice. One time, each group worked out while listening to music for six minutes. Another time, they exercised for six minutes on special Jymmin machines. The name Jymmin is a combination of “jamming" and “gym.” Using these machines, each group made music as they moved. The exercisers became the composers and the machines became their instruments. In the end, 53 of the 61 people said the same thing: They felt less tired when they exercised on the Jymmin machines. 39.__________
How does Fritz explain this? Maybe people did better on the Jymmin machines because they had more control, he says. People created the beat. They could make it go faster or slower. Also, the activity was social. Each group was making music together and having fun. Fritz believes that Jymmin exercise may have other advantages, too. 40._________ For example, it may be even a good way to treat depression.
A. This also helps relax our body and brain.
B．Experts say there are two main reasons.
C．Music with a quick and steady beat is good for exercising,
D．He expects to take advantage of it to tap into people’s potential.
E．He wants to find out if it can help with more serious conditions.
F．A new study suggests this is only part of the explanation, however.
G．When they exercise and make music, working out seems to be easier.

I've always loved the ocean. In the 71 (seven) grade, I started volunteering at the Monterey Bay Aquarium in California. I was upset to learn that many sea animals eat plastic garbage, 72 (think) it is food.
I decided to do something 73 (educate) people about this problem. I held presentations at schools to teach kids about plastic waste. I wanted to reach businesses too. I decided that if I learned of a company 74 used a lot of plastic, I'd send it an email urging it to cut back.
One day, I saw a commercial for a health-care company. People in the ad were using plastic straws (吸管). I found the contact information of the company 75 emailed its president. I told him how 76 (harm) plastic could be to the environment and asked him to consider using more eco-friendly options. I was so 77 (excite) when he wrote back to me. He said he would make sure that the company cut its use of plastic straws in half.
I kept going. Whenever I heard of businesses using plastic, I'd send an email. One of the biggest companies I wrote to 78 (be) Alaska Airlines Paris. A company 79 (represent) wrote back and told me the airline was switching over 80 plastic to paper cups on all of its 1,200 daily flights.

Last Friday, our teacher announced that in order to improve students' life skills, our class would organize a "cooking show" activity, which required everyone to make a meal for their parents that weekend. On hearing this, everyone was very excited and thought about what they planned to make.
As it was my first-time cooking, I decided to start with something simple, so I planned to make two simple stir-fries. Although I came across some troubles during the process, under the guidance of my parents, I finally made it. When the hot food was served, my parents praised me for my delicious food and pointed out what to be improved. Meanwhile, my father filmed the whole process.
On Monday, my classmates and I shared our experiences at the class meeting. We all agreed that it was a meaningful activity, which not only improved our life skills, but also gave us a chance to express our gratitude to our parents.

After he retired, Chan Jae Lee, who lives in Brazil, decided to spend his days taking care of his two young grandchildren, driving them back and forth to school and taking the opportunity to spend some quality time with them. But when Lee’s daughter moved her family to Korea, he was left with a gaping hole in his life. “All of a sudden, I had nothing to do and I missed them terribly,” Lee said.
In 2015, Lee’s third grandchild was born to his son Ji. He traveled to New York to meet the baby and it was there that Ji suggested his dad begin drawing pictures for his grandkids and posting them on Instagram as a way to keep in touch. “I liked the idea and found a purpose to draw and I learned how to stay in touch with my grandkids around the world,” Lee said.
Lee shares new pictures daily, which are watercolors of toys, vivid landscapes and imaginative animals— all of them are full of Lee’s imagination. And he draws birthday messages and his favourite places in Korea, and uses his paintings to teach the kids about important Korean traditions. Right now, Lee is able to use his art project to create a bond with the youngest members of his family.
Lee has no formal training in art and he teaches himself how to use different techniques to draw, but fans have fallen in love with his pictures. “The reaction was amazing. I couldn’t have imagined it in my wildest dreams,” Lee said. “What started as a small family project has drawn great attention.” He is called Grandpa Chan by his followers and achieves fame.
Lee has even been able to sell some drawings online to help fund more trips to see his grandchildren, but the biggest reward for his Instagram influence has been the reaction he’s gotten from his followers. “Seeing what I’ve done, many people start to reconnect to their own passion for drawing and painting and many people share their stories about their grandparents and parents,” Lee said.
24．What do we know about Grandpa Chan?
A．He moved to Korea after his retirement.
B．He was unable to go back to his hometown.
C．He came up with an idea to become famous.
D．He was lonely after his grandchildren left Brazil.
25.．Which of the following can best describe Chan Jae Lee?
A．Humorous and smart.
B．Talented and creative.
C．Sociable and reliable.
D．Helpful and hard-working.
26．What do Lee’s words in Paragraph 4 show?
A．His art project becomes very popular.
B．His family supports him in achieving fame.
C．His painting style has changed a lot.
D．His fans admire him for his sticking to his dream.
27．What can we learn from the last paragraph?
A．People feel very inspired by Lee’s works.
B．Lee makes a fortune by selling his paintings.
C．Lee gives the young advice about realizing dreams.
D．People have improved their skills after seeing Lee’s works.

Durian(榴莲) is probably the smelliest fruit in the world, letting out an unusual unpleasant smell which would make anyone bring up. However, nobody was aware of what gave this fruit its unique smell, so a team of researchers from Singapore decided to take a look at its genome (基因组) and find out.
Durian is well-known throughout Southeast Asia as the king of fruits, mostly because of its awful appearance and smell. However, the origin of this unpleasant smell was unknown, so researchers decided to map the genome of the fruit, and find the gene that controlled it. A group of genes, volatile sulfur compounds (含硫化合物), became very active in the fruit, and they were found responsible for resulting in the unpleasant smell.
The fruit confuses everyone with a sulfuric smell, like rotten onions and ingredients. The smell lasts long, mostly because the fruit contains more volatile sulfur compounds. Other species usually benefit from two gene copies at most, but durian has four, leading to the striking smell.
However, this smell might be an advantage for durian in the wild. Although we find it unpleasant, many animals might be attracted by it. If they eat the fruit, then they can easily spread its seeds everywhere, thus contributing to the distribution of the species.
The mapping of the durian genome also showed some other information on the species. First of all, the fruit has an impressive number of genes, namely 46,000. Also, with the help of these genes, they saw how it evolved, and discovered it was related to the cacao tree. All the other discoveries have been published in the journal Nature Genetics.
Despite the striking smell, many people actually enjoy eating the fruit. However, not all durian species are edible, and some of them may even cause damage to our health, Even so, the fruit is often imported, significantly contributing to the economy.
28. What give durian its unique smell?
A. Onions nearby. B. Two gene copies.
C. Rotten ingredients in it. D. Volatile sulfur compounds.
29. What does the underlined word “evolved” in Paragraph 5 probably mean?
A. Developed. B. Escaped. C. Predicted. D. Tolerated.
30. What can we infer from the text?
A. No birds enjoy eating durian.
B. Durian can be planted all over the world.
C. Some of durian species can not be eaten.
D. Durian has no relationship with the cacao tree.
31. What's the best title for the text?
A. What's Durian?
B. The Influence of the Smell
C. The Distribution of Durian
D. The Mystery of the Unpleasant Smell of Durian
D
There's a song by the great Jamaican singer Bob Marley called So Much Trouble In The World. Marley understood that part of the reason why there are so many problems in the world is the lack of tolerance between people. The UN understands this too --- that's why it made Nov 16th "International Day for Tolerance".
But first of all, what is tolerance? According to French philosopher Voltaire," tolerance is the consequence of humanity. We are all formed of frailty (脆弱) and error; let us pardon each other's fool --- that is the first law of nature."
Very often, people don't realize that they're intolerant. This is because intolerance has a lot to do with ignorance. For example, the UN's campaign is in part about the treatment of females by males. But often, the behavior of men toward women is intolerant because men don't put themselves in the shoes of women.
It's worth thinking a little about the words "tolerance" and "intolerance". Are they the best words to describe the evils of which we're speaking here? To agree to be "tolerant" of someone isn't necessarily a very respectful thing. When someone is tolerated, it implies that there's something wrong with them.
Still, what Voltaire said stands: we humans are not perfect and this weakness is something that we all share. That's the reason we should be tolerant. It's a little like generosity. We can give things to another person, and we can also give our forgiveness.
32. What's the purpose of the UN "International Day For Tolerance"?
A. To arouse people's awareness of tolerance among people.
B. To celebrate the founding of the UN.
C. To solve the problem of global warming.
D. To change peopled opinion towards globalization.
33. Why do men behave intolerantly towards women?
A. Because men don't realize the purpose of the UN.
B. Because men are physically stronger than women.
C. Because men don't appreciate the shoes of women.
D. Because men are not willing to understand women.
34. Why is it meaningless to use the words "tolerance" and "intolerance"?
A. Because they are hard to pronounce in English.
B. Because they don't express the exact meaning people refer to.
C. Because they can't be translated into other languages.
D. Because they can't be used in a respectful way.
35. In what sense is "tolerance" similar to "generosity"?
A. Humans are advised to treat others better.
B. Humans tend to find faults in others.
C. Humans need to give something to others.
D. Humans will change their attitudes to others.

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。
Move to the Music
Music helps us exercise, but why does it have this effect? 36.________ The first is simple: Music distracts us. When we listen to a song we like, our brain pays attention to the music. For example, after we exercise for 20 minutes, our body might be tired. But we may not feel this immediately while listening to music. So we exercise a little longer.
Music also motivates us. When we hear dance music, for example, we naturally start to move to the beat. An upbeat song also puts us in a good mood, so we feel happier. This gives us energy and helps us exercise longer. 37.________ Songs in the range of 120-140 beats per minute(BPM)are the best, says sports psychologist Dr. Costas Karageorghis.
38._________ Its leading researcher Fritz put 61 people in small groups. They all then exercised twice. One time, each group worked out while listening to music for six minutes. Another time, they exercised for six minutes on special Jymmin machines. The name Jymmin is a combination of “jamming" and “gym.” Using these machines, each group made music as they moved. The exercisers became the composers and the machines became their instruments. In the end, 53 of the 61 people said the same thing: They felt less tired when they exercised on the Jymmin machines. 39.__________
How does Fritz explain this? Maybe people did better on the Jymmin machines because they had more control, he says. People created the beat. They could make it go faster or slower. Also, the activity was social. Each group was making music together and having fun. Fritz believes that Jymmin exercise may have other advantages, too. 40._________ For example, it may be even a good way to treat depression.
A. This also helps relax our body and brain.
B．Experts say there are two main reasons.
C．Music with a quick and steady beat is good for exercising,
D．He expects to take advantage of it to tap into people’s potential.
E．He wants to find out if it can help with more serious conditions.
F．A new study suggests this is only part of the explanation, however.
G．When they exercise and make music, working out seems to be easier.

I've always loved the ocean. In the 71 (seven) grade, I started volunteering at the Monterey Bay Aquarium in California. I was upset to learn that many sea animals eat plastic garbage, 72 (think) it is food.
I decided to do something 73 (educate) people about this problem. I held presentations at schools to teach kids about plastic waste. I wanted to reach businesses too. I decided that if I learned of a company 74 used a lot of plastic, I'd send it an email urging it to cut back.
One day, I saw a commercial for a health-care company. People in the ad were using plastic straws (吸管). I found the contact information of the company 75 emailed its president. I told him how 76 (harm) plastic could be to the environment and asked him to consider using more eco-friendly options. I was so 77 (excite) when he wrote back to me. He said he would make sure that the company cut its use of plastic straws in half.
I kept going. Whenever I heard of businesses using plastic, I'd send an email. One of the biggest companies I wrote to 78 (be) Alaska Airlines Paris. A company 79 (represent) wrote back and told me the airline was switching over 80 plastic to paper cups on all of its 1,200 daily flights.

Last Friday, our teacher announced that in order to improve students' life skills, our class would organize a "cooking show" activity, which required everyone to make a meal for their parents that weekend. On hearing this, everyone was very excited and thought about what they planned to make.
As it was my first-time cooking, I decided to start with something simple, so I planned to make two simple stir-fries. Although I came across some troubles during the process, under the guidance of my parents, I finally made it. When the hot food was served, my parents praised me for my delicious food and pointed out what to be improved. Meanwhile, my father filmed the whole process.
On Monday, my classmates and I shared our experiences at the class meeting. We all agreed that it was a meaningful activity, which not only improved our life skills, but also gave us a chance to express our gratitude to our parents.
