Iceland is Europe's westemmost country,with the world's most northerly capital city. Reykjavik. Iceland has a population of about 340,000, spreading over more than 100,000 square kilometers. Despite its small size, there are many reasons to visit this amazing country.

City of Culture

Most visitors' first destination is Reykjavik, a small and clean city known for its colorful and stylish buildings. The city's downtown area is lined with shops, art galleries,cafes and bookstores. In 2000, Reykjavik was awarded the title of Europe's City of Culture, thanks to its art museums for true art lovers.

Hot Springs

Iceland has a number of hot springs around the island. All are heated naturally by underground volcanic activity. In fact this energy is tumed into electricity, which powers and heats people's homes and businesses. As a result, Iceland burns very little fossil fuel, such as oil and gas. Iceland has some of the cleanest air in the world.

Caves and Monsters

In Iceland, one of the most popular outdoor activities to enjoy is caving. Exploring Iceland's special lava caves or ice caves is challenging and requires special clothes and hiking tools. The best-known ice caves are in Vatnajökull, which, at 8,000 square kilometers, is Europe's largest ice cave. Outside the town of Reykjavik, the huge rocks were once believed to be monsters. These are dramatic scenery on a magnificent black-sand beach.

The Golden Circle

No trip to Ieeland would be complete without a visit to the Golden Circle, which connects Gullfoss, the hot springs region of Geysir, and Thingvellir National Park. The Mid-Atlantic Fault that runs through Iceland is literally pulling the island apart. No place is more obvious than Thingvellir Valley, where the land is actually separating and the stony ground frequently changes.

21. What made Reykjavik win the name of Europe's City of Culture?

A. Its typical art museums. B. Its creative buildings.

C. Its special ice caving. D. Its dramatic scenery.

22. What contributes to Iceland's cleanest air according to the text?

A. Its geographical feature. B. The less need for electricity.

C. Plenty of fossil fuel. D. The use of volcanic energy

23. Which part of the Mid-Atlantic Fault can be most easily seen?

A. Gullfoss. B. Vatnajökull. C. Geysir. D. Thingvellir Valley.

B

Every summer,the beautiful singing of thousands of American swamp sparrows can be heard across North America's wetlands. These little brown birds may know just a few songs,but they know them well.

Like humans,baby swamp sparrows learn to communicate by copying adults from a young age.Swamp sparrows very rarely make mistakes when they learn their songs.Their copy is so accurate (精准的) that the music changes little between generations.This learning ability was thought to be special only to humans.Until recently,the research found the ability in other creatures was super cool.

Between 2008 and 2009, Lachlan's research can recorded the calls of 615 swamp sparrows.The research found that only 2 percent of them sang a different song from the standard tune (曲调).The accurate copy allows the birds to create traditions that last for centuries.The song-types that you hear in the woods of North America today may well have been there about 1,000 years ago

In the modern world of human beings. the little bird's ability in singing in the same tune is outstanding.Scientists are also exploring the influence of human's activities on songbirds. Man-made barriers-such as cities and roads - can break up a bird population into several separate groups.These barriers may prevent cultural interaction between the songbird populations,such as the exchange of song types.

24. What do we know about swamp sparrows from the text?

A. They like singing songs they hear.

B. Their songs change little for long.

C. Their singing differs from each other.

D. They sing songs better than humans.

25 How are the songbirds influenced by man-made barriers?

A. They will have a smaller population.

B. They may have less communication.

C. They can sing more different songs.

D. They make more mistakes in singing.

26. What can be the best title of the text?

A. Man and Nature B. A Bird Similar to Humans

C. Song Types of the Sparrows D. A Bird with a Musical Tradition

以下A(易）、B(难）两种题型任选一种，做A题型的不做B,做B题型的不做A.

Free solo climbing is a risky form of rock climbing where the climber makes the climb alone without ropes or any other protective things. In June 2017, Alex Honnold completed an ultimate free solo climb up El Capitan, a 3,000-foot wall in Yosemite National Park.

On a freezing November morning in 2016, Alex determined to take up a challenge-a free solo climb of the world’s most famous vertical（垂直的）cliff. Every step, he had to be extra careful to keep the balance. All the time he had to shine his headlamp on the cold, smooth part of stones to decide where he could next place his foot. Unlike parts of the climb higher up that Alex could climb with his strong fingers, this lower part he must manage with a perfect balance of fine skills and confidence.

Every move tied people’s hearts. The cameraman said. “Every time I got no response, I thought Alex was bailing. But it turned out that I was wrong-He was still moving on.”

More physically challenging parts wait for him to climb up with his feel and hands pressing the rock. The Free blast is the most frightening part. In 2016, after several failures, Alex knew he would try again. His foot tap-tap-tapped against the wall as if he was feeling his way into the huge rock, but he wouldn’t turn back this time. And then, he stood on the top and he made it!

People view free soloing differently. Critics regard it as risky, considering the long list of those who’ve died attempting it. Others, myself included, recognize it as the sport's truest expression. Such was the attitude of Austrian climber Paul Preuss, the father of free soloing. He believed that the spirit of mountain-climbing was to master a mountain with wonderful physical and mental skill.

27. Why is the headlamp mentioned in paragraph 2?

A. To prove how dark the environment is.

B. To indicate how risky the free soloing is.

C. To share the great pleasure of a solo climber.

D. To introduce the location of the mountain climber.

28. What does the cameraman mean by saying "Alex was bailing" in paragraph 3?

A. Alex was climbing.

B. Alex was giving up.

C. Alex was struggling.

D. Alex was being saved

29. What does Alex's experience in 2016 aim to tell readers?

A. A great dream is limitless.

B. Wisdom is better than force.

C. Gains can't make up for losses.

D. Strong will leads to a smooth path.

30. Why was the climb in 2016 a challenge for Alex"

31. What did Alex need to climb the lower part?

32. What does "turn back" mean in paragraph 4?

33. How does Paul Preuss feel about free soloing?

By looking at things from a different view, you can gain new understanding about problems But it can be difficult to step outside of your world and see things from someone else’s point of view._____34_____

Listen to other people carefully. Imagining yourself in someone else’s experiences while talking one-on-one is a great way to experience a different point of view. When you talk with other people, listen closely. Make sure to listen even if you don’t share their opinions and make eye contact while they are talking.____35____Let them know you are listening.

Respect people’s differences.___36___Whenever you interact with someone else, take a moment to remind yourself that they may not share your worldview and that is okay. For example, you might have a coworker who performs a specific task different from what you do. His approach might be very different, but still effective.

Think about how you would feel in another person’s situation. If you meet someone who has experienced a misfortune, imagine how you would feel if you had a similar experience? Why might you feel that way?_______37_______ These questions lead you to build empathy to others.

___38___For example, if you work at a local homeless shelter and hear about the stories people there share about steeping on the street, then you might begin to feel fortunate for having a roof over your head and a bed to sleep. Tasting different people’s experiences is another great way to gain opinion.

A. Volunteer to help less fortunate people.

B. Then what could be done to make it easier?

C. What might you do to handle the experience?
