32．（5分）For many people，having a cup of coffee right out of bed is the best way to start a day.But a report from Asap Science says otherwise.It says the worst time for coffee is soon after we get up.When we wake up，our bodies start to make cortisol（皮质醇）.Cortisol helps us to think clearly and be quick to understand and act.The number of cortisol rises after we wake up and climb to the highest in about an hour.So there are two problems when we drink coffee during this time； （1）our bodies will make less cortisol，and （2）the cortisol will make coffee less useful.And that's why some of us drink more and more coffee.The picture below shows how the cortisol levels rise and fall during the day.
Then，when's the best time to have coffee？When the cortisol levels are going down，the report says.Cortisol levels are usually highest between8 a.m.and 9 a.m.，between noon and1 p.m，and between 5：30 P.m.and 6：30 p.m.So if you want to have coffee，enjoy it after these times，and this popular drink will help you the most.

（2）What does the underlined word "otherwise" mean？
A.They are serious about it.
B.They think differently about it.
C.They have no idea about it.
D.They do not think it is a problem.
（3）Why shouldn't we drink coffee right after we wake up？
A.Because our bodies will make more cortisol.
B.Because the cortisol will make coffee less useful.
C.Because our bodies don't wake up really.
D.Because only one cup of coffee is not enough.
（4）According to the picture above，which is a good time for coffee？
A.①
B.②
C.③
D.④
（5）Four people read the news and wrote what they thought about it.What did they think about the news？

33．（5分）Over the years，the number of whales has dropped rapidly.From 1946 to 1986，about 340，000 whales were killed.People worry that children in the future can only see whales in pictures.They believe all kinds of whale hunting （捕鲸） should be stopped before it's too late.
Some people are trying to stop whale hunting all over the world.But they fail to notice one fact：Whale hunting was going on for a long time before the number of whales went down and became a problem.
Whale hunting started as early as 1，500 years ago.This was how tribespeople （部落成员） fed their families.They hunted whales for meat because almost nothing could grow on their land.They also made whale fat into oil and used it to make candles.Over the years，whale hunting became their way of living，and even part of who they are.
Tribe whale hunting is not the thing we should worry about.Over the past forty years，tribespeople only killed 10% of all the whales for living.The other 90% died at the hands of the money﹣making hunting business.When we try to stop all kinds of whale hunting，we should think what we are asking tribespeople to give up and whether this is the best answer to the problem of whale hunting.
根据短文内容，选择最佳答案。
（1）What is the main idea of Paragraph 1？
A.The problem of whale hunting.
B.The way of whale hunting.
C.The reason of whale hunting.
D.The rule of whale hunting.
（2）What does the underlined word "fact" refer to （指代）？

C.Whale hunting started early before the number of whales dropped rapidly.
D.People always read the news of whale hunting before they noticed that.

A.Because they believed whales could bring good luck.
B.Because they wanted to sell whale oil to make money.

（4）What is the right order about the writer s points according to the passage？

34．（5分）Traveling to a farm and spending several hours a day getting your hands dirty might sound like an unusual way to spend a vacation.Do you want to have a vacation like that？If yes，WWOOF can help you.
WWOOF is an organization that helps travelers go on "volunteering vacations" to farms.Travelers work on the farms for around four to six hours a day to get free rooms and dinners.The work include things like gardening，cutting wood，feeding animals，or even making cheese.
But you may do more than that through WWOOF.It offers travelers the chance （机会） to learn some skills and the local culture while spending time in nature.
Sue Coppard，the founder （创办人） of the organization，worked in London in 1971.But she wanted to spend more time in the countryside.So，she thought it might be a good idea to stay and work on a farm.One weekend，she visited a farm in Sussex，England，together with 15 friends.In return for their stay，Sue and her friends did many tasks on the farm.
Following Sue's stay on the farm，more people started showing interest in working on farms，and many farmers said that they would like to host workers.
Today，it's possible to have such a vacation in more than 130 countries with the help of WWOOF.You don't need any farming experience﹣﹣ just be ready to learn!
根据短文内容，判断句子正（T）、误（F）。
（1）WWOOF is a name of a farm where some volunteers work during their vacations.
（2）Travelers can only have free rooms and dinners on the farms through WWOOF.
（3）Sue stayed and worked on a farm so that she could spend more time in the countryside.
（4）After Sue's stay on the farm，fewer people showed interest in working on farms.
（5）People without any farming experience can have such a vacation in many countries.
35．（5分）Teenage life﹣﹣better now，or in the past？ （1）
You are complaining （抱怨） to your parents about something.Maybe your computer isn't fast enough to play the latest games， （2） Then you hear， "When I was your age，there weren't any computers or video games.And I didn't get a bike until I was sixteen.And it was second﹣hand，and it was too big for me."
（3） It is certainly true that many teenagers have got more things nowadays.A typical family is smaller now.So parents have got more money to spend on each child.And many things are cheaper than they were when our parents were children.
（4） Forty years ago，no one could imagine a world with computers and amazing smart phones.And now these things are necessary.We can't imagine living without them!
However，technology often means we spend more time at home.And often it's just us，with our computer or smart phone.Teenagers don't do enough exercise. （5） And，although young people still get on well with their friends，some people think teenagers today don't have so many social activities as they did in the past.
What do you think？Is teenage life better these days？
阅读的短文，把A﹣E五个句子填人文中空缺处，便短文内容完整。
A.Or your friends' bikes are better than yours!
B.Does this situation sound familiar （熟悉的）？
C.Technology is probably the greatest change in our life.
D.As a result，they aren't as healthy as they were in the past.
E.So，is it really true that life is better for teenagers now？

Then，when's the best time to have coffee？When the cortisol levels are going down，the report says.Cortisol levels are usually highest between8 a.m.and 9 a.m.，between noon and1 p.m，and between 5：30 P.m.and 6：30 p.m.So if you want to have coffee，enjoy it after these times，and this popular drink will help you the most.

【分析】这篇短文主要讲述了喝咖啡的最佳时间。
【解答】（1）推理判断题。根据第一段For many people，having a cup of coffee right out of bed is the best way to start a day.But a report from Asap Science says otherwise.It says the worst time for coffee is soon after we get up.（对很多人来说，起床后喝杯咖啡是开始一天最好的方式。但是Asap Science的一份报告却不这么认为。据说起床后不久是喝咖啡的最差时间。）可推知Asap Science的报告是关于如果我们在错误的时间喝咖啡会怎么样，故选A。
（2）语义猜测题。根据第一段But a report from Asap Science says otherwise.It says the worst time for coffee is soon after we get up.（但是Asap Science的一份报告却不这么认为。据说起床后不久是喝咖啡的最差时间。）可知句首的But表示转折，可推知此处是指他们有不同的想法，故选B。
（3）细节理解题。根据第一段The number of cortisol rises after we wake up and climb to the highest in about an hour.So there are two problems when we drink coffee during this time； （1）our bodies will make less cortisol，and （2）the cortisol will make coffee less useful.（皮质醇的数量在我们醒来后上升，并在大约一个小时内达到最高。因此，当我们在这段时间喝咖啡时，有两个问题：（1）我们的身体会产生更少的皮质醇，（2）皮质醇会使咖啡变得不那么有用。）可知我们不能一醒来就喝咖啡是因为皮质醇会让咖啡变得不那么有用，故选B。
（4）推理判断题。根据第一段When we wake up，our bodies start to make cortisol（皮质醇）.Cortisol helps us to think clearly and be quick to understand and act.The number of cortisol rises after we wake up and climb to the highest in about an hour.So there are two problems when we drink coffee during this time； （1）our bodies will make less cortisol，and （2）the cortisol will make coffee less useful.（当我们醒来时，我们的身体开始制造皮质醇（醇）。皮质醇帮助我们清晰地思考，快速理解和行动。皮质醇的数量在我们醒来后上升，并在大约一个小时内达到最高。因此，当我们在这段时间喝咖啡时，有两个问题：（1）我们的身体会产生更少的皮质醇，（2）皮质醇会使咖啡变得不那么有用。）以及Then，when's the best time to have coffee？When the cortisol levels are going down，the report says.Cortisol levels are usually highest between8 a.m.and 9 a.m.，between noon and1 p.m，and between 5：30 P.m.and 6：30 p.m.So if you want to have coffee，enjoy it after these times，and this popular drink will help you the most.（那么，什么时候喝咖啡最好呢？当皮质醇水平下降时，报告说。皮质醇水平通常在早上8点到9点、中午到下午1点以及下午5点半到6点半之间最高。所以如果你想喝咖啡，在这些时间之后享受它，这种受欢迎的饮料将对你有最大的帮助。）结合图片，可知D选项所示的时间点是最适合喝咖啡的，故选D。
（5）推理判断题。根据表格中The best time to drink coffee is when you want to drink coffee.（喝咖啡的最佳时间是你想喝咖啡的时候。）以及表格中I usually wake up AFTER I drink coffee!（我通常在喝完咖啡后醒来!）以及表格中The worst time to drink coffee is when you're DEAD.（喝咖啡最糟糕的时候就是你死了的时候。）可知他们的观点与新闻里表达的观点不相符，他们不同意新闻说的，故选C。

33．（5分）Over the years，the number of whales has dropped rapidly.From 1946 to 1986，about 340，000 whales were killed.People worry that children in the future can only see whales in pictures.They believe all kinds of whale hunting （捕鲸） should be stopped before it's too late.
Some people are trying to stop whale hunting all over the world.But they fail to notice one fact：Whale hunting was going on for a long time before the number of whales went down and became a problem.
Whale hunting started as early as 1，500 years ago.This was how tribespeople （部落成员） fed their families.They hunted whales for meat because almost nothing could grow on their land.They also made whale fat into oil and used it to make candles.Over the years，whale hunting became their way of living，and even part of who they are.
Tribe whale hunting is not the thing we should worry about.Over the past forty years，tribespeople only killed 10% of all the whales for living.The other 90% died at the hands of the money﹣making hunting business.When we try to stop all kinds of whale hunting，we should think what we are asking tribespeople to give up and whether this is the best answer to the problem of whale hunting.

（3）细节理解题。根据第三段They hunted whales for meat because almost nothing could grow on their land.（他们捕杀鲸鱼以获取肉类，因为在他们的土地上几乎什么也长不出来。）可知部落的人们捕杀鲸鱼是因为陆地上几乎没有什么可吃的，故选D。

WWOOF is an organization that helps travelers go on "volunteering vacations" to farms.Travelers work on the farms for around four to six hours a day to get free rooms and dinners.The work include things like gardening，cutting wood，feeding animals，or even making cheese.
But you may do more than that through WWOOF.It offers travelers the chance （机会） to learn some skills and the local culture while spending time in nature.
Sue Coppard，the founder （创办人） of the organization，worked in London in 1971.But she wanted to spend more time in the countryside.So，she thought it might be a good idea to stay and work on a farm.One weekend，she visited a farm in Sussex，England，together with 15 friends.In return for their stay，Sue and her friends did many tasks on the farm.
Following Sue's stay on the farm，more people started showing interest in working on farms，and many farmers said that they would like to host workers.
Today，it's possible to have such a vacation in more than 130 countries with the help of WWOOF.You don't need any farming experience﹣﹣ just be ready to learn!

（4）根据第五段Following Sue's stay on the farm，more people started showing interest in working on farms，and many farmers said that they would like to host workers.（苏在农场待了一段时间后，越来越多的人开始对在农场工作感兴趣，许多农民说他们愿意接待工人。）可推断出"苏在农场待了以后，对在农场工作感兴趣的人就少了。"表述错误。故选F。

32．（5分）For many people，having a cup of coffee right out of bed is the best way to start a day.But a report from Asap Science says otherwise.It says the worst time for coffee is soon after we get up.When we wake up，our bodies start to make cortisol（皮质醇）.Cortisol helps us to think clearly and be quick to understand and act.The number of cortisol rises after we wake up and climb to the highest in about an hour.So there are two problems when we drink coffee during this time； （1）our bodies will make less cortisol，and （2）the cortisol will make coffee less useful.And that's why some of us drink more and more coffee.The picture below shows how the cortisol levels rise and fall during the day.
Then，when's the best time to have coffee？When the cortisol levels are going down，the report says.Cortisol levels are usually highest between8 a.m.and 9 a.m.，between noon and1 p.m，and between 5：30 P.m.and 6：30 p.m.So if you want to have coffee，enjoy it after these times，and this popular drink will help you the most.

A.What happens when we have coffee at the wrong time.

D.Because only one cup of coffee is not enough.
（4）According to the picture above，which is a good time for coffee？

（5）Four people read the news and wrote what they thought about it.What did they think about the news？

33．（5分）Over the years，the number of whales has dropped rapidly.From 1946 to 1986，about 340，000 whales were killed.People worry that children in the future can only see whales in pictures.They believe all kinds of whale hunting （捕鲸） should be stopped before it's too late.
Some people are trying to stop whale hunting all over the world.But they fail to notice one fact：Whale hunting was going on for a long time before the number of whales went down and became a problem.
Whale hunting started as early as 1，500 years ago.This was how tribespeople （部落成员） fed their families.They hunted whales for meat because almost nothing could grow on their land.They also made whale fat into oil and used it to make candles.Over the years，whale hunting became their way of living，and even part of who they are.
Tribe whale hunting is not the thing we should worry about.Over the past forty years，tribespeople only killed 10% of all the whales for living.The other 90% died at the hands of the money﹣making hunting business.When we try to stop all kinds of whale hunting，we should think what we are asking tribespeople to give up and whether this is the best answer to the problem of whale hunting.
根据短文内容，选择最佳答案。
（1）What is the main idea of Paragraph 1？
A.The problem of whale hunting.
B.The way of whale hunting.
C.The reason of whale hunting.

C.Whale hunting started early before the number of whales dropped rapidly.
D.People always read the news of whale hunting before they noticed that.
（3）Why did tribespeople hunt whales according to the passage？
A.Because they believed whales could bring good luck.
B.Because they wanted to sell whale oil to make money.

（4）What is the right order about the writer s points according to the passage？

A.a→c→b.

34．（5分）Traveling to a farm and spending several hours a day getting your hands dirty might sound like an unusual way to spend a vacation.Do you want to have a vacation like that？If yes，WWOOF can help you.
WWOOF is an organization that helps travelers go on "volunteering vacations" to farms.Travelers work on the farms for around four to six hours a day to get free rooms and dinners.The work include things like gardening，cutting wood，feeding animals，or even making cheese.
But you may do more than that through WWOOF.It offers travelers the chance （机会） to learn some skills and the local culture while spending time in nature.
Sue Coppard，the founder （创办人） of the organization，worked in London in 1971.But she wanted to spend more time in the countryside.So，she thought it might be a good idea to stay and work on a farm.One weekend，she visited a farm in Sussex，England，together with 15 friends.In return for their stay，Sue and her friends did many tasks on the farm.
Following Sue's stay on the farm，more people started showing interest in working on farms，and many farmers said that they would like to host workers.
Today，it's possible to have such a vacation in more than 130 countries with the help of WWOOF.You don't need any farming experience﹣﹣ just be ready to learn!
根据短文内容，判断句子正（T）、误（F）。
（1）WWOOF is a name of a farm where some volunteers work during their vacations.
（2）Travelers can only have free rooms and dinners on the farms through WWOOF.
（3）Sue stayed and worked on a farm so that she could spend more time in the countryside.
（4）After Sue's stay on the farm，fewer people showed interest in working on farms.
（5）People without any farming experience can have such a vacation in many countries.
35．（5分）Teenage life﹣﹣better now，or in the past？ （1）
You are complaining （抱怨） to your parents about something.Maybe your computer isn't fast enough to play the latest games， （2） Then you hear， "When I was your age，there weren't any computers or video games.And I didn't get a bike until I was sixteen.And it was second﹣hand，and it was too big for me."
（3） It is certainly true that many teenagers have got more things nowadays.A typical family is smaller now.So parents have got more money to spend on each child.And many things are cheaper than they were when our parents were children.
（4） Forty years ago，no one could imagine a world with computers and amazing smart phones.And now these things are necessary.We can't imagine living without them!
However，technology often means we spend more time at home.And often it's just us，with our computer or smart phone.Teenagers don't do enough exercise. （5） And，although young people still get on well with their friends，some people think teenagers today don't have so many social activities as they did in the past.
What do you think？Is teenage life better these days？
阅读的短文，把A﹣E五个句子填人文中空缺处，便短文内容完整。
A.Or your friends' bikes are better than yours!
B.Does this situation sound familiar （熟悉的）？
C.Technology is probably the greatest change in our life.
D.As a result，they aren't as healthy as they were in the past.
E.So，is it really true that life is better for teenagers now？

IX.阅读理解。
32．（5分）For many people，having a cup of coffee right out of bed is the best way to start a day.But a report from Asap Science says otherwise.It says the worst time for coffee is soon after we get up.When we wake up，our bodies start to make cortisol（皮质醇）.Cortisol helps us to think clearly and be quick to understand and act.The number of cortisol rises after we wake up and climb to the highest in about an hour.So there are two problems when we drink coffee during this time； （1）our bodies will make less cortisol，and （2）the cortisol will make coffee less useful.And that's why some of us drink more and more coffee.The picture below shows how the cortisol levels rise and fall during the day.
Then，when's the best time to have coffee？When the cortisol levels are going down，the report says.Cortisol levels are usually highest between8 a.m.and 9 a.m.，between noon and1 p.m，and between 5：30 P.m.and 6：30 p.m.So if you want to have coffee，enjoy it after these times，and this popular drink will help you the most.
根据材料内容，选择最佳答案。
（1）What is the report from Asap Science about？ A
A.What happens when we have coffee at the wrong time.

（2）What does the underlined word "otherwise" mean？ B
A.They are serious about it.
B.They think differently about it.
C.They have no idea about it.
D.They do not think it is a problem.
（3）Why shouldn't we drink coffee right after we wake up？ B
A.Because our bodies will make more cortisol.
B.Because the cortisol will make coffee less useful.

D.Because only one cup of coffee is not enough.
（4）According to the picture above，which is a good time for coffee？ D
A.①
B.②

【分析】这篇短文主要讲述了喝咖啡的最佳时间。
【解答】（1）推理判断题。根据第一段For many people，having a cup of coffee right out of bed is the best way to start a day.But a report from Asap Science says otherwise.It says the worst time for coffee is soon after we get up.（对很多人来说，起床后喝杯咖啡是开始一天最好的方式。但是Asap Science的一份报告却不这么认为。据说起床后不久是喝咖啡的最差时间。）可推知Asap Science的报告是关于如果我们在错误的时间喝咖啡会怎么样，故选A。
（2）语义猜测题。根据第一段But a report from Asap Science says otherwise.It says the worst time for coffee is soon after we get up.（但是Asap Science的一份报告却不这么认为。据说起床后不久是喝咖啡的最差时间。）可知句首的But表示转折，可推知此处是指他们有不同的想法，故选B。
（3）细节理解题。根据第一段The number of cortisol rises after we wake up and climb to the highest in about an hour.So there are two problems when we drink coffee during this time； （1）our bodies will make less cortisol，and （2）the cortisol will make coffee less useful.（皮质醇的数量在我们醒来后上升，并在大约一个小时内达到最高。因此，当我们在这段时间喝咖啡时，有两个问题：（1）我们的身体会产生更少的皮质醇，（2）皮质醇会使咖啡变得不那么有用。）可知我们不能一醒来就喝咖啡是因为皮质醇会让咖啡变得不那么有用，故选B。
（4）推理判断题。根据第一段When we wake up，our bodies start to make cortisol（皮质醇）.Cortisol helps us to think clearly and be quick to understand and act.The number of cortisol rises after we wake up and climb to the highest in about an hour.So there are two problems when we drink coffee during this time； （1）our bodies will make less cortisol，and （2）the cortisol will make coffee less useful.（当我们醒来时，我们的身体开始制造皮质醇（醇）。皮质醇帮助我们清晰地思考，快速理解和行动。皮质醇的数量在我们醒来后上升，并在大约一个小时内达到最高。因此，当我们在这段时间喝咖啡时，有两个问题：（1）我们的身体会产生更少的皮质醇，（2）皮质醇会使咖啡变得不那么有用。）以及Then，when's the best time to have coffee？When the cortisol levels are going down，the report says.Cortisol levels are usually highest between8 a.m.and 9 a.m.，between noon and1 p.m，and between 5：30 P.m.and 6：30 p.m.So if you want to have coffee，enjoy it after these times，and this popular drink will help you the most.（那么，什么时候喝咖啡最好呢？当皮质醇水平下降时，报告说。皮质醇水平通常在早上8点到9点、中午到下午1点以及下午5点半到6点半之间最高。所以如果你想喝咖啡，在这些时间之后享受它，这种受欢迎的饮料将对你有最大的帮助。）结合图片，可知D选项所示的时间点是最适合喝咖啡的，故选D。
（5）推理判断题。根据表格中The best time to drink coffee is when you want to drink coffee.（喝咖啡的最佳时间是你想喝咖啡的时候。）以及表格中I usually wake up AFTER I drink coffee!（我通常在喝完咖啡后醒来!）以及表格中The worst time to drink coffee is when you're DEAD.（喝咖啡最糟糕的时候就是你死了的时候。）可知他们的观点与新闻里表达的观点不相符，他们不同意新闻说的，故选C。

33．（5分）Over the years，the number of whales has dropped rapidly.From 1946 to 1986，about 340，000 whales were killed.People worry that children in the future can only see whales in pictures.They believe all kinds of whale hunting （捕鲸） should be stopped before it's too late.
Some people are trying to stop whale hunting all over the world.But they fail to notice one fact：Whale hunting was going on for a long time before the number of whales went down and became a problem.
Whale hunting started as early as 1，500 years ago.This was how tribespeople （部落成员） fed their families.They hunted whales for meat because almost nothing could grow on their land.They also made whale fat into oil and used it to make candles.Over the years，whale hunting became their way of living，and even part of who they are.
Tribe whale hunting is not the thing we should worry about.Over the past forty years，tribespeople only killed 10% of all the whales for living.The other 90% died at the hands of the money﹣making hunting business.When we try to stop all kinds of whale hunting，we should think what we are asking tribespeople to give up and whether this is the best answer to the problem of whale hunting.

A.Because they believed whales could bring good luck.

（4）根据第五段Following Sue's stay on the farm，more people started showing interest in working on farms，and many farmers said that they would like to host workers.（苏在农场待了一段时间后，越来越多的人开始对在农场工作感兴趣，许多农民说他们愿意接待工人。）可推断出"苏在农场待了以后，对在农场工作感兴趣的人就少了。"表述错误。故选F。
