Real Simple First Issue: 2000 Published: Monthly Real Simple is a lifestyle title owned by Time, Inc. This magazine covers topics from decorating and dieting to childcare and product guides. Like many lifestyle magazines, Real Simple is written with women in mind, but that doesn't mean men can't get something out of it! This one is especially good for people who like to organize and simplify their lives. As the title implies, simple, authentic(真实的)living is the magazine's main theme. |
Better Homes and Gardens First Issue: 1922 Published: Monthly Better Homes and Gardens is a household name when it comes to lifestyle magazines.

Woman's Day First Issue: 1937 Published: Monthly If you're looking for a magazine that combines lifestyle and fashion content, Woman's Day might be a good choice.

Many magazines feature lifestyles that are out of reach for the majority of American families, but Woman's Day tries to give practical advice and suggestions that its real-world readers can put into practice. |
Taste of Home First Issue: 1993 Published: Bi-Monthly For people who want a magazine that's entirely about cooking, recipes, nutrition, and other food-related content, Taste of Home has been a popular choice all the time.

Mary Verdi-Fletcher was born with spina bifida(脊柱裂),a disease that causes weakness in the legs and spine. Undiscouraged, she was not about to be told what she could or could not do. She believes that someone who is an artist is an artist from the day he or she was born. She dreamed of dancing and was determined to make her dream a reality. While still young, Verdi-Fletcher—dancing in her wheelchair—entered a dance competition with a friend. They won first prize. She entered and won more competitions, refusing to listen to people who said to her "You can't dance if you're in a wheelchair" or "Dancing in a chair is not really dancing".
However, Verdi-Fletcher was not satisfied with personal success alone. She wanted to make dance available to others with disabilities. In 1980, she founded a dance company called Dancing Wheels. Based in Cleveland, Ohio, Dancing Wheels performs all over the world. In productions like "The Snowman", sit-down dancers perform with stand-up dancers. Modern lighting designs, fantastic sets(布景)and props(道具), wonderful music, and festive costuming draw audience members into fairy tales and other stories.
In one show, a young stand-up dancer named Devin played "The Brother Who Cannot See" while a young sit-down dancer named Jenny performed the role of "The Sister Who Cannot Walk". It was a lovely way to express a theme Verdi-Fletcher has represented all through her life: We all have disabilities. Some disabilities may be more noticeable, but hard work and devotion to our dreams can make the seemingly impossible become a reality.
25. What is the purpose of the text?
A. To provide details about spina bifida.
B. To teach people how to dance in wheelchairs.
C. To encourage readers to believe in their dreams.
D. To entertain readers with the story of "The Snowman".
26. What does the author try to express in the underlined sentences?
A. Verdi-Fletcher had great determination to become a dancer.
B. The people who were quoted were of great wisdom.
C. Wheelchair dancing is not real dancing.
D. No one can dance in a wheelchair.
27. Why did Verdi-Fletcher found Dancing Wheels?
A. To make money.
B. To help disabled people dance.
C. To improve dancing skills.
D. To realize her childhood dream.
28. Which of the following best describes Verdi-Fletcher?
A. Serious, skillful and powerful.
B. Careful, helpful and beautiful.
C. Strict, sensitive and supportive.
D. Loving, positive and strong-willed.
C
Bill Bowerman was a track coach. He wanted to help athletes run faster. So he had learned how to make running shoes. He had also started a shoe company with a friend. It was 1971. Running shoes at the time were heavy. They had spikes(鞋钉)on the sole(鞋底). The spikes tore up the track and slowed down runners.
To make a lighter shoe, Bill tried the skins of fish. To make a better sole, he wanted to replace the spikes. Bill dug through his wife Barbara's jewelry box. He hoped to find a piece of jewelry with an interesting pattern. He would then copy the pattern onto the new soles. Nothing worked. Bill was stumped.
Then, one Sunday morning, Barbara made Bill waffles(华夫饼)for breakfast. Bill watched her cook. He studied the criss-cross(十字交叉的)pattern on their old waffle iron.
Inspiration hit.
The pattern on a waffle iron was just what Bill was looking for. The squares were flatter and wider than sharp spikes. The pattern would help the shoes grip(抓牢)any surface without tearing into it.
When Barbara left the house, Bill ran to his lab. He took the liquid chemicals that, when mixed, would harden into the sole of a shoe. He poured the mixture into the waffle iron—and the Waffle Trainer was born.
Bill's company put the Waffle Trainer on the market in 1974. It was a huge hit. Maybe you've heard of that company—it's called Nike. And today it's worth around $100 billion.
It was the waffle iron that had changed the course of Bill's life—and helped turn Nike into a well-known name. Today, the waffle iron is kept at Nike headquarters. It serves as a reminder that if we keep trying, we can find a solution to even the toughest problems. And those solutions can come from unlikely places. Even the breakfast table.
29. What was wrong with the running shoes before the Waffle Trainer was made?
A. They were easily worn out.
B. The spikes hurt runners’ feet.
C. The spikes were sharp and heavy.
D. They didn't grip the track.
30. What does the underlined word "stumped" in paragraph 2 probably mean?
A. Inspired. B. Defeated.
C. Challenged. D. Doubted.
31. What can we say about the birth of Waffle Trainer?
A. It was made quite by accident.
B. It was helped by Bill's wife.
C. It was based on many lab tests.
D. It was supported by another company.
D
Many science fiction stories tell about explorers arriving in a new world. The explorers then use some kind of high-tech device to test for breathable air or signs of life. But here on Earth, science fiction is becoming reality through a new sampling technology called environmental DNA, or eDNA for short. Scientists can use it to identify rare species or estimate fish populations with just a little air or water.
Environmental DNA can be used in two ways. One is to identify the creatures that live in a certain place. The other is to confirm the presence or lack of a specific creature.
Caren Goldberg is one of the first biologists to take the technology from the testing stage to actually using it. She sees eDNA as a way to get answers more efficiently and with less destruction compared to traditional survey techniques. Until recently, scientists depended on snorkeling, netting or using an electric current to temporarily catch fish.
This newer way to identify what lives in the environment is becoming popular around the world. Animal experts in Vietnam are using the eDNA to find the last, wild Yangtze giant softshell turtles. One researcher on the Caribbean island of Trinidad is using the sampling technology to find endangered golden treefrogs. In Madagascar, it is being used to identify amphibian diseases.
Ms Goldberg has used eDNA testing to confirm the local extinction of a leopard frog in the American state of Idaho. She has also been asked to document the spread of the New Zealand mudsnail in the state of Washington. The creature has been found in lakes and other waterways across the state.
Scientists working with the technology say they do not expect robots to replace field biologists anytime soon. But the old-fashioned field work could soon be more targeted.
32. Compared to traditional survey techniques, eDNA is more _______.
A. complex
B. eco-friendly
C. dangerous
D. convincing
33. By using eDNA, Caren Goldberg has ________.
A. succeeded in catching many fishes
B. found the existence of golden treefrogs
C. documented the spread of softshell turtles
D. confirmed the disappearance of the leopard frog in Idaho
34. What can we learn from the last paragraph?
A. Robots will replace scientists soon.
B. Some scientists are against using eDNA.
C. The old-fashioned field work may disappear.
D. Many biologists are unwilling to do the field work.
35. What is the best title for the text?
A. Science Fiction Becomes Reality for Species Surveys
B. Biologists Explore Space with the Help of eDNA
C. Scientists Find Methods to Test for Signs of Life
D. New Technologies Are Presented in Science Fictions
第二节(共5小题:每小题2分,满分10分)
根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项,选项中有两项为多余选项。
Driving is probably the most dangerous thing most of us will ever do. According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA), there are more than 30,000 deaths and over two million injuries from motor vehicle crashes in the US every year.
Although you do your best to drive responsibly and carefully, it's still smart to know what to do just in case you end up in a collision. 36
Take some deep breaths to get calm. After a crash, a person may feel a wide range of emotions—shock, guilt, fear, nervousness, or anger—all of which are normal. 37 The calmer you are, the better prepared you will be to handle the situation.
38 If you can't get out of your car—or it's not safe to try—keep your seat belt fastened, turn on your hazard lights(危险警示灯),then call 911 if possible and wait for help to arrive. If you can drive your car and are in an unsafe spot or are blocking traffic, find a safe and legal place to park your car. In some states it's illegal to move your car from the scene of an accident, though. 39 If the collision seems to be minor, turn off your car and grab your emergency kit(工具包). If it's safe to get out and move around your car, set up warning triangles around the crash site.
Report the incident. 40 This includes making sure you don't have any serious injuries. If you or anyone involved isn't feeling 100%, you should call 911 or any other number your state uses to request emergency assistance on roadways. Sometimes, you can get the police to report to the crash scene even if there are no injuries, especially if you tell them you need someone to help you figure out what happened and who's at fault.
A. Avoid a car accident.
B. Keep yourself and others safe.
C. But you could try to count to 10 to calm down.
D. Ask your driving instructor what the law is in your state.
E. Crashes can be very scary, but here are some tips if one happens to you.
F. Check on every person involved in the crash to see if they have any injuries.
G. This is the time to make a judgment about whether the police are needed or not.

Dear Alan,
Recently I'm faced with some difficulty in learning English which has been bothering me continuously. Hardly have I seen any progress in my English study even though I have spent quite a lot of time in English every day. No matter how hard I try, I would never get good results in the exams. I began to realize how serious the situation would be. I feel so worried that I always blame myself for it. To improve the situation, I have discussed it with some of my teachers and classmates. They have done their best to help me, but I am still not confident. Nowadays, it has even become such a headache for me that being admitted to my dream university seems impossible. I would appreciate it if you could give me some advice. Thank you. Best wishes!
Yours sincerely,
Li Hua
