For example, it gives you the events that are happening near you. It gives you tips for the railway stations and other transportation choices.

 Whether it be a person, an animal, or even an insect, a mother’s instincts (本能) are never wrong. This idea rings true for a mother cat who acted fast and sought out help when her kittens were in trouble. This mother cat’s quick thinking may have just saved her babies.

 In the urban district of Izmir in western Turkey, a cat walked into a regular hospital bolding a kitten in her mouth. As the mother cat moved through the hospital, people were surprised to see such a sight, but let her pass. The mother cat asked for help, crying for a long time. She was familiar to the hospital staff, who had been leaving her food and water outside, but they were unaware that she had given birth to kittens.

 The mother cat was concerned for her young because they weren’t able to open their eyes. After the doctors looked at the kittens, they noticed that they were suffering from eye infections. One of the doctors recalls, “We consulted with vets (兽医) and gave medicine as described. When the kittens opened their eyes a short time later, we were excited.” Later, they were sent to an animal hospital for further care. The cats are now up for adoption and will hopefully find loving forever homes.

 When it comes to mother cats and kittens, kittens completely depend on mothers for the first few months of their lives. Because they are blind and almost deaf until about two or three weeks old, the mother cat must protect them from any threat or danger. Without the mother cat’s help, the kittens may not make it to adulthood.

 As shown by the mother cat in Turkey, a mother’s love and protection knows no bounds. Whether the mom is a human or a cat, mothers will always look out for their babies and make sure they are safe and healthy.

4. Why did the mother cat show up in the hospital?

 A. To beg for food.  B. To get her babies treated.

 C. To express thanks.  D. To give birth to her babies.

5. How did the doctors help the baby cat?

 A. They built them a home. B. They adopted all of them.

 C. They operated on them immediately. D. They gave them right medicine.

6. What makes newly-born cats dependent on their mothers?

 A. Their physical state. B. Their eating habit. C. Their appearance. D. Their behavior.

7. What can we learn from the story?

 A. cat has nine lives.  B. One good turn deserves another.

 C. Love makes a difference. D. God helps those who help themselves.

C

 Can snacking be a key element of a healthy lifestyle？If your first response is "No!", here's a chance to update your opinions. Some of us were raised with the advice of "Never cat between meals", which can protect our teeth from sweets. Yet there can be significant advantages of snacking on healthy foods. Researchers have found that eating frequent mini-meals offers health benefits. Dr. David Jenkins and colleagues at the University of Toronto have reported some remarkable advantages.

    In one study, participants were randomly divided into two groups and both groups were given the same type and amount of food over a two-week period. One group consumed three meals a day. For those having a "Nibbling Diet", food was divided into 17 mini-meals a day. After two weeks, the nibblers had reduced their blood cholesterol (胆固醇) levels by more than 15 percent. Cortisol (皮质醇), a stress indicator, was reduced by 17 percent. Average serum insulin (血清胰岛素) levels of nibblers were reduced by 28 percent. With less insulin, the body is less likely to convert loads of calories into body fat.

    Also, you may think eating concentrated sources of fat or sugar (or both) will pack the weight into your body. However, see below for some examples of healthy snacks：

    Nuts are high in fat so keep portions moderate.

    However, the fat comes with a wealth of minerals and protective substances. For growing youngsters, high-energy adults, athletes and those who have difficulty maintaining their weight, nuts are a great solution.

 Dried fruits (raisins, currants, apricots) help you stock up on iron. If you tend to feel cold in winter, keep raisins handy. When your blood sugar drops, you'll have an instant remedy. Fresh fruit is also a great choice.

8. Why does the author propose a question at the beginning of the passage?

 A. To raise the readers' awareness of refusing snacks. B. To arouse the readers' interest in the topic.

 C. To show the significance of healthy lifestyles. D. To emphasize the importance of eating snacks.

9. What do the underlined words "Nibbling Diet" in paragraph 2 refer to?

 A. Not eating too much food at a time. B. Eating many snacks at a time.

 C. Eating food gently each time. D. Eating food quickly each time.

10. What can be inferred from the passage?

 A. The nibblers are more likely to pack the weight into their body.

 B. More insulin helps the body to burn off excess calories.

 C. Having snacks high in fat or sugar doesn't necessarily put on weight.

 D. Eating a considerable amount of nuts is a brilliant choice for everyone.

11. Who can benefit from dried fruits in daily life?

 A. An athlete who needs to maintain his weight.

 B. A child who is eager to grow up quickly.

 C. A girl who wants to warm herself in winter.

 D. A patient who longs to decrease his blood sugar.

D

 The term “social distancing” has been at the center of public conversation for a while. But it's not “social" distance we are trying to promote. It's physical separation. In fact, preserving social ties - even at a distance - is essential for both mental and physical health. The results of an analytic review done in 2017 indicate that a lack of social support is on a par with smoking cigarettes as a risk factor for health.

 Given this fact, how might we best stay connected to others while maintaining physical distance? Would we be better off e-mailing a friend? Making a phone call? Setting up a video chat? In our study, Nick Epley and I tested whether the media through which people interact affects their sense of connection - and how expectations about certain technologies impact the communication media they choose to use.

 In our experiment, we asked participants to reconnect with someone that they hadn't interacted with recently, either through e-mail or over the phone. Participants first made predictions about what it would be like to get in touch if they reached out in these two ways. They generally believed that they'd feel more connected when interacting via the phone than over e-mail. But they also predicted that talking on the phone could be more uncomfortable than sending an e-mail. Although these participants believed that talking encouraged stronger bonds, most of them said they' d rather send an e-mail than call the person up. Fears about awkwardness, it seems, push individuals toward text-based methods for communicating.

 In the next part of the experiment, we had participants actually reconnect using one randomly determined mode of communication and then followed up with them after they had done so. We found that people do form meaningfully stronger bonds when interacting over the phone than over e-mail.

 Importantly, though, there was no difference in the amount of discomfort when reconnecting on the phone.

 The next time you think about how best to connect, consider calling or setting up a video chat. Feelings of social connection are preferably facilitated by voice rather than a keyboard.

12. How does the author support his view on the importance of maintaining social ties?

 A. By stating a deep-rooted tradition. B. By citing a published report.

 C. By sharing public opinions. D. By presenting official documents.

13. What did the author and Epley's study focus on?

 A. How technologies impact means of communication.

 B. How social media choices affect feelings of connection.

 C. Why maintaining social separation is bad for mental health.

 D. Why reconnecting with friends over the phone brings awkwardness.

14. What can we infer from the study results?

 A. They changed the research objectives. B. They provided insights for future studies.

 C. They confirmed researchers' expectations. D. They contradicted participants' predictions partly.

15. What can be concluded from the text?

 A. For stronger bonds, talk instead of typing.

 B. Keeping in touch is key to a lasting friendship.

 C. Think before you consider contacting an old friend.

 D. Text-based methods for communication cause discomfort.

第二节 （满分25分）

Catherine was the coolest kid in her class. Whenever she went, she was in the spotlight, with a bunch of kids following her and doing everything she did.

Her deskmate, Landy, however, was not in the cool kids’ group. Being the tallest kid in her class, she was teased by her classmates, who were always chanting “Landy, Landy, long as spaghetti (意大利面)”. Every time Landy heard those silly chants, she could feel her face burst into flames. God knew how she wished the ground to crack and swallow her!

Catherine didn’t really like it when the kids chanted “Landy, Landy, long as spaghetti”. But she never told them to stop either, and nor did she ever talk to her. She liked being popular.

One weekend, Catherine went over to her grandfather for Thanksgiving. Her grandfather lives on a farm at the opposite end of town, where he keeps chickens. While helping to feed the chickens, Catherine noticed a peculiar one. Curling in the corner, it looked smaller than the others and was almost half-bare!

“What’s the matter with it?” She asked her grandfather, with a puzzled frown on her face. Her grandfather told her how chickens could act. “They have a pecking (啄) order,” he explained, wrinkles of concern spreading around his forehead. “If one chicken is different, the others will push it away and keep pecking it. Sometimes they peck it so much that it dies.”

“Oh, what a poor little thing!” Catherine let out a sigh as she scooped the frightened chicken up in her arms, whose heart was beating fast in the bony little body. Suddenly, she thought of Landy, the girl being “pecked” by her classmates. “I’m going to take it home and take good care of it,” she said with a determined look.

Back in school, Catherine told the cool kids about the chicken. “It’s looking healthy,” she said proudly. “It’s fatter and its feathers are growing. Even the cat likes it. She carries it around the garden, and...” Everyone was entertained by Catherine’s story of her lovely chicken, laughter lingering around the classroom.

注意：1. 续写词数应为150 左右；2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。

Then Catherine spotted Landy sitting by herself in a corner.

But Catherine walked directly toward Landy, regardless of what they said.
