Free accommodations. experience.BWhen her grandmother s health began to worsen last autumn, Mary would make the drive from Washington, DC to Winchester, V A every few days.She hated highway driving,

20、finding it ugly and boring. She preferred to take winding country roads to her grandmother s hospital. When she drove through the rocky town of Harpers Ferry, the beauty of the rough waters was always appealing to her.Toward the end of her journey, Mary had to get on highway 81. It was here that she

21、 discovered a surprising bit of beauty during one of her trips. Along the shoulder of the highway, there was a long stretch of wild flowers. They were thin and delicate and purple, and moved back and forth in the wind as if whispering poems to each other.The first time she saw the flowers, Mary was

22、seized by an uncontrollable urge to pull over on the highway and pull a bunch from the soil. She carried them into her grandmother s room when she arrived at the hospital and placed them in a vase by her bed.For a moment her grandmother seemed more lucid （清醒的）than usual. Shethanked Maryfor the flowe

23、rs, commented on theirbeauty and asked where she had gottenthem. Mary was overjoyed by the ability of the flowers to wake something up inside her sick grandmother.Afterwards, Mary began carrying scissors in the car during her trips to visit her grandmother. She would quickly glide onto the shoulder,

24、 jump out of the car, and clip a bunch of flowers. Each time Mary placed the flowers in the vase, her grandmother s eyes would light up and they would have a splendid conversation.One morning in late October, Mary got a call that her grandmother had taken a turn for the worse. Mary was in such a hur

25、ry to get to her grandmother that she sped past her flower spot. She decided to turn around, head several miles back, and cut a bunch.Mary arrived at the hospital to find her grandmother very weak and unresponsive. She placed the flowers in the vase and sat down to hold her grandmother s hand. She f

26、elt a squeeze on her fingers. It was the last conversation they had.24. Why did Mary prefer to take country roads to the hospital?A. To get on highway 81 more easily.B. To enjoy the natural view alongthe roads. C. To pick wild flowersfor her grandmother.D. To spend less time driving to the destinati

Flowers have the magic to cure diseases.CClose to the North Pole, remote and rocky Plateau Mountain in the Norwegian archipelago of Svalbard seems an unlikely spot for any global effort to safeg

30、uard agriculture. In this cold and deserted environment, no grains, no gardens, no trees can grow. Yet at the end of a 130-meter-long tunnel cut out of solid stone is a room filled with humanity' s most precious treasure, thelargest and most diverse seed collection more than a half-billion seeds

31、.A quiet rescue mission is under way. With growing evidence that unchecked climate change will seriously affect food production and threaten the diversity of crops around the world, the Svalbard Global Seed Vault represents a major step towards ensuring the preservation of hundreds of thousands of c

32、rop varieties. This is a seed collection, but more importantly, it is a collection of the traits found within the seeds: the genes that give one variety resistance to a particular pest and another variety tolerance for hot,dryweather.Few people will ever see or come into contactwith the contents of

33、thisvault. In sealed boxes, behind multiple locked doors, monitored by electronic security systems, enveloped in below-zero temperatures, and surrounded by tons of rock, hundreds of millions of seeds are protected in their mountain fortress. Frozen in such conditions inside the mountain,seeds of mos

34、t majorcrops will remain viable for hundreds of years, or longer. Seeds of some are capable of retaining their ability to grow for thousands of years.Everyone can look back now and say that the Seed Vault was a good and obvious idea, and that of course the Norwegian government should have approved a

35、nd funded it. But back in 2004, when the Seed Vault was proposed, it was viewed as a crazy, impractical, and expensive idea.We knew that nothing would provide a definite guarantee. But we were tired, fed up, and frankly scared of the steady, greater losses of crop diversity. TheSeed Vault was built

36、by optimists who wanted to do something to preserve options so that humanity and its crops might be better prepared for change. If it simply resupplied seed gene banks with samples those gene banks had lost, this would repay our efforts.The Seed Vault is about hope and commitment about what can be d

37、one if countries come together and work cooperatively to accomplish something significant, long-lasting, and worthy of who we are and wish to be.28. What is the Seed Vault according to the passage?A. It s a tunnel where the collected seeds are displayed.B. It ' s a stone room that contains the s

38、eeds of endangered crops.C. It ' s a seed gene bank that stores diverse seeds for future agriculture.D. It ' s a lab where researchers study how to maintain the diversity ofcrops.29. What does the underlined wordA. Mature.B. Alive.30. What does Paragraph 3 mainly tells us?A. How the seeds ar

39、e preserved.C. Why the seeds are protected.31. We can know from the passage thatviable " in Paragraph 3 probably means?C. Clean.D. Valuable.B. Where people keep the seeds.D. What people do to study the seeds.A. the Seed Vault offers a solution to climate changeB. most countries took part in res

40、cuing the seed varietiesC. the Seed Vault guarantees to prevent the loss of crop diversityD. many people originally considered building the Seed Vault unwiseDWhat kind of amusing activities will you participate in during your life? Will you be spending your free time doing safe sports with little da

41、nger or will you always be one of the first people to try the next popular extreme activity? Scientists have been interested in finding out why some people seem to prefer dangerous activities.Researchers have found that men often tryto impress other peoplebyproving that they are courageous and fearl

42、ess,and they are more likelytotake riskswhen people are watching them or when they are competing againstother men. Research also shows thatas people get older they usuallybehavemore responsibly and try not to take unnecessary risks. In addition, when people are in stable relationships, they seem to

43、be less attracted to daring activities.Some people seem to be more daring than others, but there are many different types. Do they take all types of risk? Psychologists have identified a number of categories of risks. These include financial risks, risks related to health and safety, amusing risks a

44、nd social risks. Psychologists discover that just if a person enjoys bungee jumping, it doesn' t mean he or she willtake chances when investing money or that he or she will tell a joke to a group of strangers.Interestingly, research shows that in most cases men are less cautious than women, but

45、women take more social risks than men. Men are more likely to make career changes as they get older and to express unpopular opinions in business meetings.Yet, at the end of the day, the probability of particular people taking arisk depends on what type of people they belong to. In general, optimist

46、ic people are more likely to take risks because they focus on the possible positive outcomes of their actions. On the other hand, pessimistic people are the complete opposite.32. Why do men try to prove they are brave according to the research?A. To attract people s attention.B. To take on more resp

47、onsibility.C. To make favorable impressions on people. D. To develop stable relationships with others.33. What does the example of bungee jumping indicate?A. There are more than one type of risk.B. Bungee jumping is dangerous, but popular. C. People take one type of risk, but not another.D. Some peo

48、ple are more courageous than others. 34. What have researchers discovered about women?A. They are willing to take risks. B. They are always changing jobs. C. They are good at doing business.E. They are usually more conservative than men.35. What mainly determine whether people take risks possibly?A.

49、 Their personalities.B. Their financial conditions.C. There social relationships.D. Their expectations of outcomes.第二節(jié)（共5小題；每小題2分，滿分10分）根據(jù)短文內(nèi)容，從短文后的選項中選出能填入空白處的最佳選項。選項中有兩項為多余選項。How to Turn Your Goals intoHabitsFirst we make our habits, then our habitsmake us. It ' s such a simpleconcept, yet it

50、' s something we don ' t always do.I believe that having ONE goal to focuson is much more powerful thanhaving many goals. By putting the belief into practice, I have achieved a lot of personal goals over time. 36My answer takes a littleexplaining. I tryto turn my goals into habits, and indoi

51、ng so, I putmygoals on autopilot. Turning a goal into a habit means really focusing on it for at leasta month.The more you can focus, themore it'll be on autopilot.37You' ll still do it, but you only have to use minimalforce tomaintain it, and you can focus on your next goal or habit.Take my

52、 marathon goal as an example. I was just starting running and hadthe brilliantidea to run a marathon within a year. So that was my goal.38First, I had to make running a daily habit. Second, I had to reportto people in order to have accountability （負(fù)責(zé)）so that I could not quit easily. I focused on the

53、 daily running habit for about a month, and didn ' t have any other goals or habits. When the running habit stuck, I started reporting to people I knew and blogging about my running every day.39 I could focus on new goals without having to worry about the marathon.I stillhad to do the running, o

54、f course, but it didn ' t requireconstant focus. 40 I was able to achieve this because, all year long,I had daily running and accountability habits. I put my marathongoalinto autopilot, so instead of struggling with it daily for an entire year, I focused on it for one month and was able to accom

55、plish it while focusing on new habits and goals.A. And eventually, I ran the first marathon in my life.B. But in order to achieve it, I broke it down into two habits.C. With this accountability, there' s no way I couldstop running.D. Once you put it on autopilot, you don' t have tofocus on i

56、t much. E. At the beginning, it was very difficult for me to achieve this goal.F. Once those two habits were established, my marathon goal was pretty much on autopilot. G. My readers asked me how I was able to achieve them while working on different projects.第三部分：英語知識運(yùn)用（共兩節(jié)，滿分45分）第一節(jié)：完形填空（共 20小題；每小題
