Last night's meteor shower left many people in the community dissatisfied and demanding answers. According to Gabe Rothschild, Emerald Valley's mayor, people gathered in the suburbs of the city, carrying heavy telescopes, expecting to watch the brightly burning meteors passing through the sky. What they found instead was a sky so brightened by the city's lights that it darkened the light of the meteors passing overhead.
“My family was so frustrated," admitted town resident Duane Cosby, "We wanted to make this an unforgettable family outing, but it turned out to be a huge disappointment.”
Astronomers—scientists who study stars and planets-have been complaining about this problem for decades. They say that light pollution prevents them from seeing objects in the sky that they could see quite easily in the past. They call on people and the government to take measures to fight against it.
There is yet a population besides professional and amateur star observers that suffers even more from light pollution. This population consists of birds, bats, frogs, snakes, etc. For example, outdoor lighting severely affects migrating birds. According to the International Dark-Sky Association, "100 million birds a year throughout North America die in crashes with lighted buildings and towers.”
Countless more animal casualties (伤亡) result from the use of artificial lighting. Clearly, people enjoy the benefits of lighting their evenings. But some scientists think it can be harmful for humans, too. They worry that exposure to light while sleeping can increase a person's chances of getting cancer.
Emerald Valley is only one community that is becoming aware of the negative effects of light pollution. For years, Flagstaff, Arizona, has enforced lighting regulations in its city in order to assist astronomers at the Lowell Observatory. Similar efforts have been made worldwide, and a movement is underway to remind us to turn off lights when we are not using them, so that other creatures can share the night.
24．What do the astronomers complain about?
A．Meteor showers occur less often than before. B．Their observation equipment is in poor repair.
C．Light pollution has remained unsolved for years. D．Their eyesight is failing due to artificial lighting.
25．What is the author's attitude towards outdoor lighting?
A．Optimistic. B．Unconscious. C．Conservative. D．Concerned.
26．Lighting regulations in Flagstaff, Arizona are put into effect to_________.
A．lessen the chance of getting cancer B．create an ideal observation condition
C．ensure citizens a good sleep at night D．enable all creatures to live in harmony
27．What message does the author most want to give us?
A．Saving wildlife is saving ourselves.
B．Great efforts should be made to save energy.
C．Human activities should be environmentally friendly.
D．New equipment should be introduced for space study.
C
For many of us, summertime means road trips to the beach or mountains, or at the very least some additional dust and bird poop on the exterior of our vehicles. The extra dirt leads us to do one of two things: wash our car in the driveway or head to the car wash. But which choice is better for the environment?
The main concerns with either choice are the amount of fresh water being used and the types of chemicals used to remove the dirt. Both of these concerns can be closely monitored when washing the car at home, says Katy Gresh, spokeswoman for the Southwest Region of the Pennsylvania Department of Environmental Protection. She advises car owners to put aside a set amount of water for the entire wash. “It’s just like brushing your teeth, ”she says. “You don’t want to leave the water running or use more than you need for the job.” But even following this advice comes with an environmental risk: Washing your car in the driveway or street flushes the dirty water into storm drains.
John Schombert is executive director of 3 Rivers Wet Weather. His organization works to educate the public about storm sewers(下水道)and water runoff, keeping this untreated water from entering the Allegheny region’s waterways. “We ask people to consider washing their cars on lawns or other permeable(透水的)surfaces where the water gets absorbed, ” Schombert says. “Soil can break down and help filter(过滤)those things,” Schombert says. “Storm sewers are not made for waste disposal.” Even when car owners use natural soaps to wash their cars, which Schombert says are probably ineffective at breaking down grease anyway.
The commercial car wash down the street knows full well the rules regarding waste water in storm sewers. According to the International Carwash Association(ICA), professional car washes must use water reclamation systems. These mandated processes not only keep the dirty water out of storm sewers and regular water treatment systems, but they also work to reduce water usage at commercial facilities.
28．What does the underlined word probably mean in the first paragraph?
A．top B．bottom
C．inside D．outside
29．What worries people when they have their cars washed?
A．The dirt cannot be removed easily. B．Large quantities of water are wasted.
C．The washing ways do no good to their cars. D．D The used chemicals are harmless to the environment.
30．What’s the disadvantage of washing cars at home?
A．It is not easy to deal with. B．It cannot clean the dirt completely.
C．It consumes a larger amount of water. D．It does much damage to the environment.
31．What can be the best title of the text?
A．Do You Put Car washing at Risk?
B．Which Is Better: Car Wash or DIY?
C．Why Dishwashers Are Better than Hand Washing?
D．Do Americans Use Less Water than They Did Years Ago?
D
It is not always a good thing to praise children because “empty” words may make them unhappy. Words such as “well done” may make them doubt their own abilities, a leading psychologist (心理学家) Stephen Grosz has warned. He says that words such as “you’re so clever” or “you’re such an artist” could also hinder their future development at school. He says that such empty praise causes children to be unhappy as they may say they can’t live up to these expectations.
Instead he advises parents and teachers to praise children less frequently and use words like “trying really hard,” Mr. Grosz said, “Empty praise is as bad as thoughtless criticism (批评). People often pay no attention to children’s feelings and thoughts.” He also mentions research showing that children who are heavily praised probably perform worse at school.
Some psychologists from Columbia University asked 128 pupils aged 10 and 11 to work out a number of math problems. Afterwards, some were told, “You did really well — you’ re so clever.” But the researchers told the other group, “You did really well — you must have tried really lard.” Both groups of children were then given more difficult questions and those who had been told they were clever did not do as well as the others.
He says that when collecting his daughter from a school near their home in North London, he heard a teacher tell her, “You have drawn the most beautiful tree. Well done,” Later, after she had done another drawing, the same teacher said, “Wow, you are really an artist.” In his book, Mr. Grosz writes, “How could I explain to the teacher that I would prefer it if she did not praise my daughter?”
As a parent of two children, I strongly agree with Mr. Grosz. I praise them when praising is proven right. I want them to know if I praise them, they have done something beyond my expectation, beyond what they are able to do.
32．The underlined word “hinder” in Paragraph 1 probably means “_______”.
A．allow B．prevent C．encourage D．control
33．Which of the following praise does Mr. Grosz like most?
A．You are so clever! B．Well done, darling!
C．You must have tried hard! D．You are such an artist!
34．The example of 128 pupils is given to show _______.
A．the disadvantage of praising children strongly B．children’s growing interest in math
C．teaching children is a difficult job D．children are becoming cleverer and cleverer
35．What does the author mainly tell us in the text?
A．Many children can’t live up to their parents’ expectations.
B．Praise makes good men better and bad men worse.
C．Parents should spend more time with their children.
D．Too much praise can sometimes hurt children.
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。Open a book by any philosopher and you'll probably read that a meaningful life has to involve achieving something difficult. That's because many philosophers are perfectionists when it comes to the meaning of life. It's not just philosophers, either. Perfectionism is one of the main reasons people tend to believe their lives are meaningless.____36____If they aren't doing something absolutely amazing, then life has no meaning.
____37____ So the conclusion is obvious: most lives are meaningless. Right? Not really. Dig a little deeper, and perfectionism falls apart. Actually you don't need to be a perfectionist about the meaning of life. Life would be fantastic if everything was perfect. But something doesn't need to be perfect to be fantastic.____38____
For one, it's pretty inconsistently applied most of the time. People who are perfectionists about the meaning of life often don't apply it to other areas of their lives.____39____For example, perfectionists don't think they're a failure if they don't get a hundred percent on every test. So isn't it also absurd to apply that kind of standard to the meaning of life?
It doesn't end there. The demands that perfectionists place on themselves and others are actually really unrealistic. And that means they can only lead to disappointment.____40____It would be similarly odd to call one of your friends a huge failure because he can't achieve as much in a day as Superman. But that's exactly the logic perfectionism applies when it claims that our lives have to be extraordinary in some way to have meaning.A．They see life as all -or-nothing.
B．We don't expect a dog to drive a car.
C．This leads to lots of double standards.
D．You're unlikely to be satisfied with any result.
E．And there are actually a few problems with perfectionism.
F．However, most of us aren't an Einstein or a Mother Teresa.
G．They'd probably dismiss the ideas like that as absurd, in fact.

Besides funding, coaches are difficult to find, and that is ____67____it has become tougher for lion dancers to survive.

Last night's meteor shower left many people in the community dissatisfied and demanding answers. According to Gabe Rothschild, Emerald Valley's mayor, people gathered in the suburbs of the city, carrying heavy telescopes, expecting to watch the brightly burning meteors passing through the sky. What they found instead was a sky so brightened by the city's lights that it darkened the light of the meteors passing overhead.
“My family was so frustrated," admitted town resident Duane Cosby, "We wanted to make this an unforgettable family outing, but it turned out to be a huge disappointment.”
Astronomers—scientists who study stars and planets-have been complaining about this problem for decades. They say that light pollution prevents them from seeing objects in the sky that they could see quite easily in the past. They call on people and the government to take measures to fight against it.
There is yet a population besides professional and amateur star observers that suffers even more from light pollution. This population consists of birds, bats, frogs, snakes, etc. For example, outdoor lighting severely affects migrating birds. According to the International Dark-Sky Association, "100 million birds a year throughout North America die in crashes with lighted buildings and towers.”
Countless more animal casualties (伤亡) result from the use of artificial lighting. Clearly, people enjoy the benefits of lighting their evenings. But some scientists think it can be harmful for humans, too. They worry that exposure to light while sleeping can increase a person's chances of getting cancer.
Emerald Valley is only one community that is becoming aware of the negative effects of light pollution. For years, Flagstaff, Arizona, has enforced lighting regulations in its city in order to assist astronomers at the Lowell Observatory. Similar efforts have been made worldwide, and a movement is underway to remind us to turn off lights when we are not using them, so that other creatures can share the night.
24．What do the astronomers complain about?
A．Meteor showers occur less often than before. B．Their observation equipment is in poor repair.
C．Light pollution has remained unsolved for years. D．Their eyesight is failing due to artificial lighting.
25．What is the author's attitude towards outdoor lighting?
A．Optimistic. B．Unconscious. C．Conservative. D．Concerned.
26．Lighting regulations in Flagstaff, Arizona are put into effect to_________.
A．lessen the chance of getting cancer B．create an ideal observation condition
C．ensure citizens a good sleep at night D．enable all creatures to live in harmony
27．What message does the author most want to give us?
A．Saving wildlife is saving ourselves.
B．Great efforts should be made to save energy.
C．Human activities should be environmentally friendly.
D．New equipment should be introduced for space study.
C
For many of us, summertime means road trips to the beach or mountains, or at the very least some additional dust and bird poop on the exterior of our vehicles. The extra dirt leads us to do one of two things: wash our car in the driveway or head to the car wash. But which choice is better for the environment?
The main concerns with either choice are the amount of fresh water being used and the types of chemicals used to remove the dirt. Both of these concerns can be closely monitored when washing the car at home, says Katy Gresh, spokeswoman for the Southwest Region of the Pennsylvania Department of Environmental Protection. She advises car owners to put aside a set amount of water for the entire wash. “It’s just like brushing your teeth, ”she says. “You don’t want to leave the water running or use more than you need for the job.” But even following this advice comes with an environmental risk: Washing your car in the driveway or street flushes the dirty water into storm drains.
John Schombert is executive director of 3 Rivers Wet Weather. His organization works to educate the public about storm sewers(下水道)and water runoff, keeping this untreated water from entering the Allegheny region’s waterways. “We ask people to consider washing their cars on lawns or other permeable(透水的)surfaces where the water gets absorbed, ” Schombert says. “Soil can break down and help filter(过滤)those things,” Schombert says. “Storm sewers are not made for waste disposal.” Even when car owners use natural soaps to wash their cars, which Schombert says are probably ineffective at breaking down grease anyway.
The commercial car wash down the street knows full well the rules regarding waste water in storm sewers. According to the International Carwash Association(ICA), professional car washes must use water reclamation systems. These mandated processes not only keep the dirty water out of storm sewers and regular water treatment systems, but they also work to reduce water usage at commercial facilities.
28．What does the underlined word probably mean in the first paragraph?
A．top B．bottom
C．inside D．outside
29．What worries people when they have their cars washed?
A．The dirt cannot be removed easily. B．Large quantities of water are wasted.
C．The washing ways do no good to their cars. D．D The used chemicals are harmless to the environment.
30．What’s the disadvantage of washing cars at home?
A．It is not easy to deal with. B．It cannot clean the dirt completely.
C．It consumes a larger amount of water. D．It does much damage to the environment.
31．What can be the best title of the text?
A．Do You Put Car washing at Risk?
B．Which Is Better: Car Wash or DIY?
C．Why Dishwashers Are Better than Hand Washing?
D．Do Americans Use Less Water than They Did Years Ago?
D
It is not always a good thing to praise children because “empty” words may make them unhappy. Words such as “well done” may make them doubt their own abilities, a leading psychologist (心理学家) Stephen Grosz has warned. He says that words such as “you’re so clever” or “you’re such an artist” could also hinder their future development at school. He says that such empty praise causes children to be unhappy as they may say they can’t live up to these expectations.
Instead he advises parents and teachers to praise children less frequently and use words like “trying really hard,” Mr. Grosz said, “Empty praise is as bad as thoughtless criticism (批评). People often pay no attention to children’s feelings and thoughts.” He also mentions research showing that children who are heavily praised probably perform worse at school.
Some psychologists from Columbia University asked 128 pupils aged 10 and 11 to work out a number of math problems. Afterwards, some were told, “You did really well — you’ re so clever.” But the researchers told the other group, “You did really well — you must have tried really lard.” Both groups of children were then given more difficult questions and those who had been told they were clever did not do as well as the others.
He says that when collecting his daughter from a school near their home in North London, he heard a teacher tell her, “You have drawn the most beautiful tree. Well done,” Later, after she had done another drawing, the same teacher said, “Wow, you are really an artist.” In his book, Mr. Grosz writes, “How could I explain to the teacher that I would prefer it if she did not praise my daughter?”
As a parent of two children, I strongly agree with Mr. Grosz. I praise them when praising is proven right. I want them to know if I praise them, they have done something beyond my expectation, beyond what they are able to do.
32．The underlined word “hinder” in Paragraph 1 probably means “_______”.
A．allow B．prevent C．encourage D．control
33．Which of the following praise does Mr. Grosz like most?
A．You are so clever! B．Well done, darling!
C．You must have tried hard! D．You are such an artist!
34．The example of 128 pupils is given to show _______.
A．the disadvantage of praising children strongly B．children’s growing interest in math
C．teaching children is a difficult job D．children are becoming cleverer and cleverer
35．What does the author mainly tell us in the text?
A．Many children can’t live up to their parents’ expectations.
B．Praise makes good men better and bad men worse.
C．Parents should spend more time with their children.
D．Too much praise can sometimes hurt children.
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。Open a book by any philosopher and you'll probably read that a meaningful life has to involve achieving something difficult. That's because many philosophers are perfectionists when it comes to the meaning of life. It's not just philosophers, either. Perfectionism is one of the main reasons people tend to believe their lives are meaningless.____36____If they aren't doing something absolutely amazing, then life has no meaning.
____37____ So the conclusion is obvious: most lives are meaningless. Right? Not really. Dig a little deeper, and perfectionism falls apart. Actually you don't need to be a perfectionist about the meaning of life. Life would be fantastic if everything was perfect. But something doesn't need to be perfect to be fantastic.____38____
For one, it's pretty inconsistently applied most of the time. People who are perfectionists about the meaning of life often don't apply it to other areas of their lives.____39____For example, perfectionists don't think they're a failure if they don't get a hundred percent on every test. So isn't it also absurd to apply that kind of standard to the meaning of life?
It doesn't end there. The demands that perfectionists place on themselves and others are actually really unrealistic. And that means they can only lead to disappointment.____40____It would be similarly odd to call one of your friends a huge failure because he can't achieve as much in a day as Superman. But that's exactly the logic perfectionism applies when it claims that our lives have to be extraordinary in some way to have meaning.A．They see life as all -or-nothing.
B．We don't expect a dog to drive a car.
C．This leads to lots of double standards.
D．You're unlikely to be satisfied with any result.
E．And there are actually a few problems with perfectionism.
F．However, most of us aren't an Einstein or a Mother Teresa.
G．They'd probably dismiss the ideas like that as absurd, in fact.
