3、 Last year I tk a trip t Dunhuang with sme friends.
After we left ur htel, we stepped ut int a sandstrm that mrning. Thankfully, many f ur grup were well-prepared with facemasks and caps. I, n the ther hand, was nt as equipped. I shuld have learned abut the cnditins there better.
This was, admittedly, the lw-pint f the trip, but reparatin （补偿） was made that evening with a trip t an amazing cultural shw, fittingly called "Silk Rad". This was a mre interesting take n the Silk Rad's histry, using dance and sng t shw the vivid cultural traditins and artistic legacies（遗产） f Dunhuang and the Silk Rad. It was a fully entertaining evening.
The next day's visit t the Mga Caves was certainly the highlight f the trip. Frm the utside, they lk perfectly rdinary.

Much f the riginal pink-clured paints have turned black. Our guide said, "The painters spent much f their lives painting in the near-dark, guided nly by natural light and dim il lamps, and as such, mst went blind."
Out f the darkness f the caves, we stepped int the blinding light f the Gbi, with a view f the Yueyaquan, nestled in the desert bwl, fr an afternn f sandbarding and camel rides-Silk Rad style.
Thankfully, the jurney back was a mre mdern mde f transprtatin, and we were all abard a sleepver train back t Lanzhu, settling int ur cmfrtable bunk beds within their purple and gld Apsara-mtif cabins, and gently rcked t sleep.

Less than a minute later. Tm Alguire passed by n his bicycle. He caught sight f a man lying n the radside, s he jumped ff his bike and ran ver. He recgnized Larry immediately, because he had been Larry's dctr fr nearly 20 years.
Dr. Tm felt fr a pulse （脉搏） at first. Finding nne, he began t give Larry first aid. It wuldn't restart Larry's heart, but it wuld keep the bld flwing until smene else arived. Tm culd nly hpe smene wuld cme by sn, arund six 'clck in the mrning n a hliday weekend. Tm culdn't stp pressing Larry's chest t run fr help —Larry's brain cells wuld die withut the bld. And Tm didn't have a cell phne with him.
, a car did drive by. But the driver ignred Tm's appeal fr help. What was he ging t d? Tm was very wrried. Finally, anther car came dwn the rad, driven by Michael Salit, a U.S. Cast Guard Officer. Michael wasn't ne t pass up a chance t help a persn in need. He quickly dialed 911.
Dctrs then fund that Larry had suffered a heart attack and there were severe blckages in tw f Larry's majr arteries （动脉）. Only the timely arrival f Dr. Tm saved his life.

5、 Hardware in general, and smartphnes in particular, have becme a huge envirnmental and health prblem in the Glbal Suth's landfill sites.
Electrnic waste (e-waste) currently takes up 5 percent f all glbal waste, and it is set t increase rapidly as mre f us wn mre than ne smartphne, laptp and pwer bank. They end up in places like Agbgblshie n the suburbs f Ghana's capital, Accra. It is the biggest e-waste dump （垃圾场） in the wrld, where 10, 000 infrmal wrkers walk thrugh tns f abandned gds as part f an infrmal recycling prcess. They risk their health searching fr the precius metals that are fund in abandned smartphnes.
But Agbgblshie legally shuld nt exist. The Basel Cnventin, a 1989 treaty （条约）, aims t prevent develped natins frm unauthrized dumping f e-waste in less develped cuntries. The e-waste industry, hwever, circumvents regulatin by exprting e-waste labelled as "secndhand gds" t pr cuntries like Ghana, knwing full well that it is heading fr a landfill site.
A recent reprt fund Agbgblshie cntained sme f the mst dangerus chemicals. This is nt surprising: smartphnes cntain chemicals like mercury （水银）, lead and even arsenic （砷）. Reprtedly, ne egg frm a free-range chicken in Agbgblshie cntained a certain chemical which can cause cancer and damage the immune system at a level that's abut 220 times greater than a limit set by the Eurpean Fd Safety Authrity (EFSA). Mst wrryingly, these pisnus chemicals are free t pllute the brader sil and water system. This shuld cncern us all, since sme f Ghana's tp exprts are cca and nuts.
Sme gvernments have started t take respnsibility fr their cnsumers' waste. Fr example, Germany has started a prject that includes a sustainable recycling system at gbgblshie, alng with a health clinic fr wrkers. Hwever, gvernments cannt slve the prblem alne, as there is an almst limitless cnsumer demand fr hardware, especially when gvernments' green plicies are fcused n issues like climate change.
Only the manufacturers can fix this. A mre ecnmically sustainable and plitically pssible slutin is thrugh encuraging hardware manufacturers t make the repair, reuse and recycling f hardware prfitable, r at least cst-neutral.
(1) What can we infer frm Paragraph 2?
A. Electrnic waste requires mre landfill sites.
B. Electrnic waste is t cmplex t get fully recycled.
C. Electrnic prducts need t be imprved immediately.
D. Electrnic pllutin is a burning questin in Agbgblshie.
(2) What des the underlined wrd "circumvents" in Paragraph 3 mean?
A. Relaxes.
B. Bans.
C. Avids.
D. Tightens.
(3) What shuld be the biggest cncern accrding t the text?
A. The vilatin f EFSA's standards.
B. The threat f pluted fd wrldwide.
C. The lack f diversity in Ghana's exprts.
D. The damage t chicken's immune system.
(4) What des the authr think is the best slutin t the e-waste prblem?
A. Letting gvernments take n the main respnsibility.
B. Reducing custmers' demands fr electrnic prducts.
C. Gvernments' adjusting their green plicies abut e-waste.
D. Manufacturers' develping a sustainable hardware ecnmy.
6、 Every year, the Jint Mathematics Meeting brings mre than 5, 000 math lvers tgether. It's the largest math meeting in the wrld. In January 2019, mathematicians flew t the meeting in Baltimre, Md., t learn abut new ideas and talk abut their wrk. Many even came t admire the latest in mathematical art.
The meeting included an entire art exhibitin. Visitrs felt amazed at sculptures made frm metal, wd and flded paper. One was based n a supersized Rubik's cube. Many like triangles were arranged in strange and surprising sizes and clrs. The cllectin als included drawings and paintings inspired by the study f numbers, curves （曲线） and patterns.
Art and math may seem like a strange pairing. Peple usually experience art thrugh their senses. They see a painting r listen t music. If this art mves them, they will have an emtinal respnse. Wrking at math prblems is usually viewed as smething yu think abut-nt feel.
But cnnectins between the tw fields reach far back in time. Sculptrs and architects in sme ancient civilizatins included numbers and math ideas int their wrks.
"A mathematician, like a painter r a pet, is a maker f patterns, " wrte British mathematician G. H. Hardy in 1940. If a mathematician's patterns are mre permanent, he cntinued, "It is because they are made with ideas."
Henry Segerman is a mathematician and artist. When he was in high schl, in England, he was gd at math and art. But he had t chse. "I went in the math directin back then, " he says. He thught it difficult t succeed as an artist.
Still, Segerman's math studies led him int the visual areas f math, such as gemetry. In 2015. Segerman and sme math art friends created a virtual-reality artwrk. Participants can put n a pair f VR gggles t flat arund and thrugh fur-dimensinal shapes. Art makes it pssible t interact with these shapes, which wuld be impssible t create in ur three-dimensinal wrld. As beautiful as it is t see, Segerman's wrk als ffers a new view n mathematical ideas.
(1) What is special abut the exhibits at the meeting?
A. They are made based n math ideas.
B. They reflect the lng histry f math.
C. They are art wrks with high technlgy.
D. They turn abstract art int specific math.
(2) Why des the authr say "Art and math may seem like a strange pairing" in Paragraph 3?
A. They're experienced in different ways.
B. They seem extremely hard t appreciate.
C. They've been separated since ancient times.
D. They fail t bring abut peple's respnses.
(3) Henry Segerman's stry suggests that .
A. ne can't easily succeed in science
B. math makes art easier t understand
C. math is actually the rigin f fine art
D. math learning prmtes the creatin f art
(4) Whatis the mainideaf the text?
A. Real artists will stand the test f math.
B. Artists make math becme a kind f art.
C. Mdern artists turn int mathematicians.
D. Math and art turns ut a great cmbinatin.

7、 Have yu ever had smene tell yu"If yu eat befre bed, yu are mre likely t get fat? " 1 This belief riginated when researchers fund the relatin between individuals snacking late at night and having a BMI that categrizes them as bese （肥胖的）.
Is eating late at night, especially after 8 pm, really ging t make yu gain weight? One thery is that yur metablism （新陈代谢） slws dwn when yu are asleep. 2 Thus the calries yu eat right befre bed wuld nt be burned ff as much as they wuld be while yu're awake.
Althugh the science seems pretty sund, recent studies have shwn that metablism changes very little, if at all, while yu are asleep. 3 The heart is still beating, lungs are still wrking. and the brain is still very active. All f these actins take energy, meaning while we are asleep, we are still burning calries.
4 . As we knw, ne physilgical effect f insulin（胰岛素） is string fat. Fd being cnsumed late at night will mre likely be stred away due t the higher levels f insulin present in the bld system. Hwever, insulin levels at night are shwn t be n different than insulin levels during mid-day, If it is true that eating with high insulin levels causes yu t gain weight, anyne eating anytime after the mrning will becme fat.
S hw cme individuals have higher BMls when they snack at night? It is simply a result f eating t many calries. Snacks that individuals tend t eat during the night are usually high in sugar and calries, such as ice cream, candy, ptat chips and sft drinks. Put simply, if yu eat mre eelries than yu burn, regardless f the time f the day, yu will gain weight. 5

8、 Fifteen years ag, I tk a summer vacatin in Lecce in suthern Italy. After climbing up a hill fr a panramic （全景的） view f the blue sea, white buildings and green live trees, I paused t catch my breath and then psitined myself t take the best pht f this panrama.
Unfrtunately, just as I tk ut my camera, a wman apprached frm behind, and planted herself right in frnt f my view. Like me, this wman was here t stp, sigh and appreciate the view.
Patient as I was, after abut 15 minutes, my camera scanning the sun and reviewing the sht I wuld eventually take, I grew frustrated. Was it t much t ask her t mve s I culd take just ne picture f the landscape? Sure, I culd have asked her, but smething prevented me frm ding s. She seemed s cntent in her bservatin. I didn't want t mess with that.
Anther 15 minutes passed and I grew bred. The wman was still there. I decided t take the pht anyway. And nw when I lk at it, I think her presence in the pht is what makes the image interesting. The landscape, beautiful n its wn, smehw cmes t life and breathes because this wman is engaging with it.
This pht, with the unique beauty that unflded befre me and that wman wh "ruined" it, nw hangs n a wall in my bedrm. What wuld she think if she knew that her figure is captured and frzen n sme stranger's bedrm wall? A bedrm, after all, is a very private ce, in which sme wman I dn't even knw has been immrtalized (使…….永存). In sme ways, she lives in my huse.
Perhaps we all live in each ther's ces. Perhaps this is what phts are fr: t remind us that we all appreciate beauty, that we all share a cmmn desire fr pleasure, fr cnnectin, fr smething that is greater than us.
That pht is a reminder, a captured mment, an unspken cnversatin between tw wmen, separated nly by a thin square f glass.
(1) What happened when the writer tk ut her camera t take the best pht f the scenery?
(2) Why did the writer hang the pht n the wall f her bedrm?
(3) Please decide which part is false in the fllwing statement, then underline it and explain why.
Finally, I decided t take the pht with the wman in it because I thught her presence was what made the image cme t life.

(4) Please briefly state ne life experience when yu lked at an unsatisfying situatin frm a different angle and it turned ut great. (abut 40 wrds)
