She made the decision to build her body back from the ground up. With a fewmonths of hard work and determination, she graduated from high school with a healthy body and ahealthy mind.Name:Amalia Biro,24The problem: Amalia was a horseback rider with her sight set on the Olympics, until one day she was thrown off a horse, leaving her left knee badly injured.The change: She ran a 5K at the request of her friend.Running lets her clear her head.She foundherself starting to turn to running instead of breaking away from her social life.Name:Sarah Jane Parker,28The problem: She had a lot of fear and anxiety about different things. The fear was taking over her life.The change: She tried indoor rock climbing with her friend's encouragement. When she finallymanaged to climb to the top, she fell in love with the sport. Eventually she used the courage she gotfrom climbing to break away from her fear.Name:Kimberly Whittaker,25The problem: Two car accidents in one month made Kimberly have joint problems in both knees and pain in her lower back.The change: She joined a gym and worked with a physical trainer three times a week to help herbecome healthy again. She took spin classes(动感单车课程）the most often because she felt like shewas able to focus her energy just on riding.21.How did Katelyn become healthy again?A. By running.B.By seeing a doctor.B.By changing her mind.D.By focusing on studying.22.What do Amalia and Sarah have in common?A.They had big goals.B.They were sports fans.C.They had no self-confidence.D.They should thank their friends.23.What did Kimberly think of the spin classes?A.They were boring.B.They were tiring.C.They were difficult.D.They were attractive.BWe're often told that we shouldn't live in fear or let worry affect us, and there are definitely advantages of this advice.But there is such a thing as a healthy dose of worry,recent research suggests,especially when we are faced with real dangers. In a study of over 300,000 adults in the UnitedKingdom,people who considered themselves worriers were better health-wise than those who worriedless.Over a multi-year period,they had a lower risk of dying of a range of diseases.The researchers proposed a potential explanation for these differences:Worriers may be more likely to notice physical problems and quickly seek medical attention for them,increasing the chance of noticing and treating diseases in early stages. In addition, they may show more health-related behavior like exercise and healthy eating in an effort to stave off negative health results.Other negative emotions, like anger and tension, don't have the same benefits as worry in the study, probably because they don't increase health watchfulness in the same way.Worry may be an unpleasant emotion, but it can make us act in ways that protect ourselves and others.Other research has also found health benefits connected with worry. For example,one study found that smokers who worried more about the negative health effects of smoking were more likely to give it up within eight months. Another study found that people who not only understood the risk of skin cancer but worried about it were more likely to wear sunscreen as a preventative measure.Despite these benefits, worrying about health sometimes can be bad. For example, we might fearthe behavior that is in fact safe. And frequent,unconstructive worry,health-related or not,can disturbsleep quality and increase the risk of stress-related illness. Too much worry is also a sign of generalized anxiety disorder.Constructive worry is likely to be more solution-focused than unconstructive worry. The feeling of worry reminds us of a potential danger, which makes us think through how to address that danger.For example, if you read an article about the risks of spending a lot of time sitting down and become concerned about how much time you spend sitting during the day, you might consider different ways to increase your activity level or talk with your doctor.Sometimes we worry about things that are largely out of our control and don't necessarily have practical solutions, like an upcoming medical test or the unpredictability(不可预知性）of a loved one's physical condition. These are normal worries and are not unconstructive- they may still make us take action that benefits us, even if we can't solve the problem or control the result.Telling ourselves simply not to worry is unlikely to make those feelings go away. But we can choose to respond with understanding and comfort,rather than going down the rabbit hole of worst-case situations.24.Why could worry be beneficial to our health?A.It could help us set more practical goals.B. It could draw our attention to our health.C.It could inform us of possible solutions.D. It could make us recover from diseases.25.What does the underlined part “stave off" in Paragraph 2 probably mean?A.Analyze.B.Remind.C.Change.D.Avoid.26.How does the author prove the benefits of worry?A.By presenting scientific research.B.By comparing negative emotions.C.By explaining the reason for worry.D.By introducing health-related habits.27. What does the author think of worrying about things out of control?A. It is harmful to our health.B.It can still be of some help.C.It can take plenty of time.D. It will make things worse.CIt's a running joke on social media: googling a headache and you'll conclude that you have braincancer.It might be the mistake of the Internet-and how it often does a bad job of explaining the risk ofdifferent health problems-that a headache has you thinking about your will.The Internet is full of bad health information. In particular, many websites fail to point out the risk. Sure,a list of the possible reasons behind someone's symptoms might appear. But how likely someone is to have the most serious potential condition might not come across-leaving people to make mental leaps about what conditions might apply to them.In 2009,two Microsoft researchers dove into the search results for a range of symptoms which were not serious.Among the top 10 search results for “headache", there was a 26 percent chance of the “brain tumor(脑瘤）＂ appearing on the page.However, only about 1 in 10,000 people are diagnosed(诊断）with a brain tumor every year in the U.S.Besides,these results seldom include explanations of the personal information collected when doing the risk analysis. One study found that women using evidence-based tools to analyze the breast cancer risk didn't trust the results, because they felt the analysis didn't take their full family history into consideration.Even if the online heath information does a great job of explaining risk, symptoms can make people fall into a common psychological trick. Called the Barnum Effect, the phenomenon kicks in when people see a description and think it applies to them exactly, even though the characters are general enough to apply to everyone.Some researchers think that googling symptoms can, in the beginning, be about comfort:Peoplewant to deal with worries about what they're feeling, and remove the possibility that they're seriouslyill.If that's the purpose, it's not always the final result. Depending on what people find, their worriesmight grow-potentially pushing the Internet users to keep searching as away to self-comfort,and increasing their stress. You look for symptoms and you will find them. This will increase your worry, and you'll keep looking.28.Why does the author mention the 2009 research?A.To show the Internet information is not believable.B.To prove headaches are very common in daily life.C.To analyze why people turn to the Internet for help.D.To explain the brain tumor is actually a rare disease.29.What may people do according to the Barnum Effect?A.They may turn a blind eye to the explained risks.B.They may share health information without consideration.C.They may describe their symptoms in detail on the Internet.D.They maybe easily affected by the online health information.30.What may people end up doing while searching the Internet for symptoms?A.Making their condition worsen.B.Being dependent on the Internet.C.Becoming more and more worried.D.Requiring more and more comfort.31.What can be the best title for the text?A.Why the Internet always says your headache is cancerB.What you should do if you really have a headacheC.The Internet can make you get a terrible headacheD.Your headache is actually not a big dealDWe have entered a new age of embedded(嵌入式的）， intuitive(直觉的）computing in which our homes,cars,stores,farms,and factories have the ability to think, sense, understand, and respond to our needs. It's not science fiction, but the dawn of a new age.Most people might not realize it yet, but we are already feeling the impact of what's known as the third wave of computing. In small but significant ways it is helping us live healthier and more secure lives.If you drive a 2014 Mercedes Benz, for example, an “intelligent” system tries to keep you from hitting a pedestrian(行人）。A farmer in Nigeria relies on weather sensors that communicate with his mobile device. Forgot your medicine? A new pill bottle from AdhereTech reminds you through text or automatic phone messages that it's time to take a pill.Technology is being integrated(融入）into our natural behaviors,with real-time data connecting our physical and digital worlds. With this dramatic shift in our relationship to technology, companies can adapt their products and services.To understand how revolutionary the third wave is, we ought to consider how far we have come. The first wave began when companies started to manage their operations through mainframe computer systems over 50 years ago.Then computing got “personal" in the 1980s and the 1990s with the introduction of the PC (personal computer).For the most part, computing remained immobile andlacked contextual awareness.In computing's second wave, mobile computing and the smartphone took center stage.Billions of people, some of whom might not have had access to clean water,electricity, or even housing,were connected.Developers created applications and provided consumers with access to just about everything through their phone at the cost of a monthly data plan.As the third wave keeps developing, designers must meet the demands of consumers who want toexperiment with new technology.Historically,designers have focused their attention on a product's form and function.While thatstill matters,of course,the definition of a meaningful user experience has expanded significantly andwill continue to do so. Instead of creating a single product, designers will need to imagine a series ofconnected products and services that have awareness of each other and their surroundings.32.Why are three examples given in Paragraph 2?A. To tell us that human beings are smarter and smarter.B.To illustrate the importance and necessity of technology.C. To prove that we are living healthier and more secure lives.D. To show the impact of the third wave of computing on our life.33. In the first wave of computing_A. Companies' operations were reliable on computer systems.B.Computing had awareness of people's needs in the context.C.People could have access to computing almost everywhere.D. It was possible for people to experience computing at home.34.Which of the following is a situation in the third wave of computing?A.There's no need to create a single product.B. The definition of the user experience is more significant.C.Products and services are not independent of each other.D.The products' form and functions are no longer important.35.What can we conclude from the passage about the new age we are facing?A. There's a shift of attention from people's physical worlds to their digital worlds.B.There's closer relationship between technology and people's natural behaviors.C.People live more happily with the convenience brought by advanced technology.D.People become lazier with the products that can think and respond to their needs.第二节 七选五阅读（共5个小题；每小题2.5分，满分17.5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。选项中有两处为多余选项。In high school,you can take part in a club you enjoy,whether that's singing,cooking,or somethingelse.36_If your school doesn't offer a club that interests you, starting your own club will allow you to continue to enjoy this hobby.Follow the steps below to start a club.Brainstorm ideas.First,decide what you want your club to focus on.

And then he waved to his dad, who had let Jared's dog,Rio, to play in the water.Rio liked the water,and her shiny black coat looked cool in the sun. His dad waved back. Jared had gotten Rio earlier that year as a gift from Canine Companions for Independence to help him get around easier.She was trained to be a dog helping to guide the weak people. And since Jared had had her, he was no longer afraid of being shoved(推挤） around in the halls at school.Instead, Rio would push against his braces,helping him navigate through the stream of boys and girls. Jared was glad to have her even if Rio was just doing the job she was trained to do.Now Rio's smart eyes were on him. “She possibly can't help me swim the river;she is trained tohelp on land, but not in the water. Besides, this is something I want to do on my own,” Jared thoughtwhen looking at Rio. Then Jared jumped into the river and sank down, using his arms to swim. At firstit was just like at home, in his pool, where he had taught himself to swim without the use of his legs.Then the current (水流） was strong; it was trying to pull him down.【注意】1.所续写短文的词数要求150词左右。2.所续写内容要以上面段落为依据，前后衔接符合逻辑。Paragraph 1When Jared got to the middle of the river, he anxiously found he was too tired. Rio was pushing against him in the water, just as she did in the halls at school.
