阅读下列短文,从每题所给的四个选项 (A、B、C 和 D) 中,选出最佳选选项.并在答题卡上将该选项涂黑.
A
China has announced it’s abolishing its one-child policy. What difference has it made, statistically speaking?
400 million births prevented
The one-child policy, officially in place since 1979, has prevented 400 million births. Parents have faced fines and other punishments for having more children.
The majority of the decrease in China’s fertility rate happened in the 1970s. It dropped from 5.8 children per woman in 1970 to 2.7 in 1978. Despite the one-child policy the rate had only fallen to 1.7 by 2013.
21:28-baby deaths rate
Since the one-child policy was introduced, baby girls have become more
likely to die than boys.
In the 1970s, according to the United Nations, 60 males per 1, 000 live births died under the age of one. For girls the figure was 53. In the 1980s, after the one-child policy became official, the rate for both was 36. By the 1990s, 26 males per 1,000 live births died before the age of one - and 33 girls. The 2000s saw 21 boys per 1,000 live births dying and 28 girls.
1.16 boys born for every girl
Sexually selective abortions have been considered as a major cause of China's unusual imbalance.
Gietel-Basten, associate professor in social policy at Oxford University, says the births of many girls are not registered if parents have broken the rule by having two children, adding officials often turn a blind eye. It's estimated there are now 33 million more men than women in China.
4: 2: 1 families
With the ageing of China's population and the continuation of the one-child policy, a “4: 2 :1” home is the description given to households in which there are four grandparent, cared for by two working age parents, who themselves have one child.
By 2050, it’s predicted that a quarter of China's population will be 65 or older. The predicted decline in the number of people of working age is thought to have persuaded the government to drop the one-child policy.
21. When was the baby deaths rate for both boys and girls equal?
A. In the 1970s. B. In the 1980s. C. In the 1990s. D. In the 2000s
22. What makes the one-child policy abolished according to the passage?
A. The decline of birth rate. B. The rise of baby deaths rate.
C. The change of family structure. D. The decline of working age people.
23. The passage sums up the one child policy by ________________.
A. number B. example C. contrast D. analysis
B
Mathilda,15, is Turkana, a native people that has survived by raising cattle in a semiarid (半干旱) region. Mathilda's school, like most schools in the area, doesn't have access to clean water and sanitation facilities for its students. So instead of spending their whole school day learning, Mathilda and her classmates start their day by spending two hours to the closest river fetching water ---water that is anyway most likely not safe to drink. They do the same thing again in the afternoon, so they often lose around half of their school day fetching water.
Mathilda has to do the same thing outside of school hours to get the water her family needs at home, leaving her little time for studying. Because of rising temperatures, water has become harder and harder to find here, and people have to spend more and more time trying to find it.
This is just one small example of how climate change is making it harder to realize people’s rights to water, education and security. Unfortunately, most higher-income countries remained silent on the issue.
This is despite studies showing that communities already facing marginalization(边缘化),such as women and children, mostly suffer from climate change. This is especially the case for those in countries with limited resources and fragile ecosystems.
Meanwhile, women consist of the majority of the world 's poor，and so are more dependent for their livelihood on natural resources that are threatened by climate change. And around the world, women and girls are the most likely to be responsible for fetching water for their families.
This exposes them to danger and leaves them with less time to attend school, earn money, or simply to rest. But the fact is that the effects of climate change will be felt globally.
Despite the difficulties she is facing, trying to get an education, Mathilda says she hopes to serve her community in a leadership role when she grows up.
“All of the world's leaders need to work together to solve this problem that we are all facing,” she said.
24. Mathilda has to spend _______fetching water every school day.
A. two hours B. four hours C. more than four hours D. almost a whole day
25. The first two paragraphs are intended to tell us____________.
A. the cause and effect of lack of water
B. one serious consequence of climate change
C. the difficulties in fetching water in the semiarid region
D. the hardship of life for the people in the semiarid region
26. We can conclude from the passage that________________.
A. climate change is everyone's business
B. water is becoming rare because of rising temperatures
C. fetching water takes up Mathilda's half of studying time
D. females are more responsible for fetching water for their families
27. The passage is mainly about the problem caused by_______________.
A. rising temperatures B. fetching water C. climate change D. water shortage
C
I walked up to the counter. Behind it was a lady with glasses on the tip of her nose and gray hair on her head.
“Excuse me,” I said. She looked up. “You’re that Clements kid,” she said. “I’ m Miss Bee. Come closer and let me get a look at you.” She pushed her glasses up her nose. “I can describe you to the police if something goes missing from the store.”
“I’ m not a thief!” I was shocked. I was seven too young to be a thief!
“From what I can see you’re not much of anything. But I can tell you’ve got potential.” She went back to reading her newspaper.
“I need to get these.” I said, holding up my list. “So? Go get them.” Miss Bee pointed to a sign on the screen door. “I’m not your servant, so I suggest you get yourself a basket and start filling.”
I visited Miss Bee several times a week that summer. Sometimes she short-changed me. Other times she overcharged. “That can of beans is only twenty nine cents” I corrected her one afternoon. I had watched the numbers change on the cash register closely, and Miss Bee had added 35 cents. She didn't seem embarrassed. She just looked at me over her glasses and fixed the price.
But she ever let me declare victory. All summer long she found ways to play tricks on me. No sooner had I learned how to pronounce bicarbonate of soda(小苏打) and memorized its location on the shelf than Miss Bee rearranged the shelve and made me hunt for it all over again.
One day before I left, she said, “I know what you think of me, but I don't care! Each of us is put on this earth for a reason. I believe my job is to teach every child I meet life lessons. When you get older you'll be glad our paths crossed!” Glad I met Miss Bee?Ha! The idea was absurd…
Until one day my daughter asked me to finish her math problems. “If I do it for you how will you ever learn to do it yourself?” I said. Suddenly, I remembered the lady Miss Bee.
28. The girl felt __________ when Miss Bee implied she could be a thief.
A. surprised B. shocked C. puzzled D. annoyed
29. We can infer from Paragraph 6 that Miss Bee ______________.
A .showed no care about her mistakes B. made the girl learn to double-check
C. was always playing tricks on the girl D. was careless and dishonest to do business
30. It can be learned from the passage that Miss Bee ______________.
A. knew her job was to help every child she met
B. asked the girl to shop by herself to test her honesty
C. taught the girl many lessons but she didn't understand
D. rearranged the shelves to teach the girl to be changeable
31. Which is NOT the lesson the writer learnt from shopping?
A Treat others kindly and politely. B. Don’t be so quick to judge others.
C. The best teachers aren’t only in school. D. Try our best though the task seems beyond us.
D
A new graph has revealed exactly how long you’11 need to sweat it out in the gym to neutralize (抵消) swallowing a favorite fast food.
While eating fried chicken, pizza and burgers will all entail a gym session of over an
hour doing cardio(有氧运动)or lifting weights, women have it far harder than men and must work extra hard to banish calorie-packed meals.
After a classic McDonald's favorite, the Big Mac, men would need to do 42 minutes of cardio or 57 minutes of weightlifting.
As for women, fifty one minutes of cardio would help counter the 24 grams of fat in a Big Mac---over a quarter of the recommended daily allowance - --or an hour and eight minutes of weightlifting.
However, the 450g Tesco chocolate cake was by far the worst offender. Clocking in at a whopping 1,710 calories and 90 grams of fat, only a hardcore gym session is going to shift the calories you’ve absorbed from this dessert. The average woman would have to lift weights for almost four hours to work off the calories in this cake.
Comparatively a chocolate bar seems healthy, with 237 calories which would take 25 minutes for the average woman to run off. Alternatively you could spend thirty three minutes doing weightlifting exercises.
Men will have to complete 40 minutes of cardio and 53 minutes of weightlifting while women will have to complete 48 minutes of cardio and 64 minutes of weightlifting against the calories in French fries.
32. The fat of the recommended daily allowance for women is _________grams.
A .18 B. 20 C. 24 D. 30
33. According to the passage, __________is the unhealthiest food.
A. French fries B. the Big Mac C. a chocolate bar D. Tesco chocolate cake
31. Compared with men, women must spend ________to consume the calories in French fries.
A. 11 more minutes lifting weights B. 8 less minutes doing cardio
C. 8 more minutes lifting weights D. 11 less minutes doing cardio
35. The main purpose of the passage is to___________.
A. inform us to stay away from fast food B. offer us advice on how to keep healthy
C. tell us some information about fast food D. suggest what we do to work off the calories
E
It’s Time to Put it Away
Your smart phone may have hurt you before you realize it. Don't be addicted to it. Put your phone away, OK?
1.Cyber Sickness
Also called “digital motion sickness”, symptoms that range from headaches to woozy feelings can occur when you quickly scroll on your smart phone or watch action packed video on your screen. 36. Your sense of balance is different from other senses in that it has lots of inputs. When those inputs don’t agree, that’s when you feel dizziness and sickness.
2. Text Claw
It is the unofficial term for soreness and muscle contraction felt in the finger, wrist and forearm after heavy smart phone use. 37. So if you’re always on your phone, it makes sense to feel discomfort in your hands and forearms.
3. Eye Strain
Do you stare at a screen for hours on end? If you’re reading this, you very well might. 38. Staring at your digital devices for a long time can lead to dry eyes, headaches and tiredness, which can decrease your productivity. Experts suggest taking screen breaks every 20 minutes.
4. Text Neck
Similar to the claw, text neck---discomfort in the neck and spine happens when you spend a long time looking down at your smart phone. 39. Being mindful of how far your neck bends when you’re on your phone---- and bending it back to an upright position can help reduce the risk of text neck.
5. Pedestrian safety
Pedestrian deaths are on the rise because too many smart phone users engage in distracted walking. While focused on the cyber world, many of us can lose reality of the physical one. Elemental pedestrian safety knowledge is compromised by technology, and the risks are scary. 40.
A. We should taking breaks for a while.
B. The sensation results from a mismatch between sensory inputs.
C. Remember that pedestrian safety is more important than smart phone.
D. The habit may lead to people requiring medical spine care at a younger age.
E. To avoid injury or worse, put your phone away until you’ve reached a safe spot.
F. Any specific motor activity can cause pain in the tendons (筋) and muscles when done repeatedly.
G. Any activity that requires active use of your eyes---driving and reading included---can cause eye tiredness.

Dear Sir/Madam,
I have read your advertisement in the newspaper. You mentioned in it that your instructors are fully qualified and you ensure that learners will be able to swim well after one week’s training.
I can swim a little but I’m not very confident in the water. So I’m interested in taking part in the training course. Fortunately, the summer holiday is around the corner. I’m writing to inquire when and where the course will be given, and how long the training course will last each day.
I also want to know how much you will charge me for that.
Besides, would you be so kind as to tell me whether there is anything special that should be prepared or does your company provide everything necessary?
I am looking forward to hearing from you soon.
Yours sincerely,
