In the early afternoon, when he was planning to go home, a fierce snowstorm swept into the area. Unable to see far, he accidentally turned off the path. Before he

12、 knew it, Nicholas was lost, all alone! He didnt have food, water, a phone, or other supplies. He was getting colder by the minute.Nicholas had no idea where he was. He tried not to panic. He thought about all of the survival shows he had watched on TV. It was time to put the tips he had learned to

13、use.He decided to stop skiing. There was a better chance of someone finding him if he stayed put. The first thing he did was to find shelter from the freezing wind and snow. If he didnt, his body temperature would get very low, which could quickly kill him.Using his skis, Nicholas built a snow cave.

14、 He gathered a huge mass of snow and dug out a hole in the middle. Then he piled branches on top of himself, like a blanket, to stay as warm as he could.By that evening, Nicholas was really hungry. He ate snow and drank water from a nearby stream so that his body wouldnt lose too much water. Not kno

15、wing how much longer he could last, Nicholas did the only thing he could he huddled (蜷縮) in his cave and slept.The next day, Nicholas went out to look for help, but he couldnt find anyone. He followed his tracks and returned to the snow cave, because without shelter, he could die that night. On Tues

16、day, Nicholas went out again to find help. He had walked for about a mile when a volunteer searcher found him. After two days stuck in the snow, Nicholas was saved.Nicholas might not have survived this snowstorm had it not been for TV. He had often watched Grylls survival show Man vs. Wild. Thats wh

17、ere he learned the tips that saved his life. In each episode (一期節(jié)目) of Man vs. Wild, Grylls is abandoned in a wild area and has to find his way out.When Gxrylls heard about Nicholas amazing deeds, he was super impressed that Nicholas had made it since he knew better than anyone how hard Nicholas had

20、s turn and swing every day. New findings add to evidence that the plants are animal-like.Harmer, a professor in the University of California at Davis Department of Plant Biology, carried out a series of experiments on sunflowers in the field, in pots outdoors and in indoor growth chambers.By staking

21、 plants so that they could not move, Harmer showed that he could destroy their ability to track the sun. He also noticed that sunflowers prevented from moving were not as tough and leafy as those that were free to move. When plants were moved indoor with a settled overhead light, they continued to s

22、wing back and forth for a few days.The indoor plants did start tracking the “sun” again when the apparent source of lighting was moved across the room. The plants could reliably track the movement and return at night when the artificial day was close to a 24-hour cycle, but not when it was closer to

23、 30 hours.When sunflowers track the sun, the cast sides of their stems grew more rapidly than the west sides. Ai night, the west sides grew faster as the stem swung the other way. The team identified a number of genes that were expressed at higher levels on the sunward side of the plant during the d

24、ay, or on the other side at night. A plant growth-regulating hormone, called auxin, appears to be a key driver.The “dance” to the sun cycle obviously slows when the sunflower matures and its flowers open up. At that point, the plants stop moving during the day and settle down facing the sun in the e

25、ast.“Bees like warm flowers.” Harmer said, adding that the bees are cold-blooded, so landing on a warm flower saves them energy and perhaps feels really good.“The morning warmth changes the flowers in a way to make them more appealing to insects, perhaps causing them to release more attractive scent

DResearching.3、What is the result of sunflowers being stopped from moving?AThey wont grow well.BThey will grow faster than usual.CThey wont swing back though set free.DThey will produce a number of new genes.4、What is the advant

DThey produce more flowers.23（8分） We humans love to stare into our smart devices.We gaze for hoursabout 10 hours and 39 minutes a dayat our computers，smartphones，tablets and televisions.I

29、s all this staring bad for us? It might be，mainly because as we stare at our devices we are exposing ourselves to blue light.Blue light is a type of electromagnetic radiation with a very short wavelength that produces a high amount of energy.While its true that light can damage our eyes under certai

30、n circumstances，theres no scientific evidence suggesting that blue light is harmful to our eyes.But many people still think it is，which is why blue lightblocking glasses are so popular.So do the glasses work?“Everyone is very concerned that blue light may be causing damage to the eye，but theres no e

31、vidence that it may be causing serious damage，”Dr.Rahul Khurana，clinical spokesman for the American Academy of Ophthalmologists，told Business Insider.Blue light exposure is nothing new.In fact，the sun is the largest source of blue light.Moreover，blue light is also present in LED light.But if blue li

32、ght isnt harmful，then why are we constantly rubbing our eyes when were looking at our screens? The answer is eyestrain(眼疲勞):More than 60 percent of people experience eye problems associated with digital eyestrain.And blue light，it seems，isnt the cause.Instead，our eyes are so strained because most of

33、 us blink less when we stare at our digital devices.So if eyestrain is the real issue，blue light-blocking glasses are probably of little use.1、What do we know about blue light?AIt is a kind of nuclear radiation.BIt has the shortest wavelength.CIt may come from electronic devices.DIt consumes a great

34、 deal of energy.2、What causes the popularity of blue light-blocking glasses?AEvidence of their benefits to eyes.BBelief in blue lights harmful effect.CWidespread use of smart devices.DScientific understanding of blue light.3、What can be inferred from Paragraph 4?ABlue light exposure is hardly avoida

36、, but Dr Jean-Loup Rault, an animal scientist at the University of Melbourne in Australia, believes new companions are coming: robot pets.“Technology is moving very fast,” Rault told ABC News, “The Tamagotchi in the early 1990s was really the first robotic pet, and now Sony and other big companies h

37、ave improved them a lot.”This may notsit well withpet lovers. After all, who would choose a plastic toy over a lovely puppy? But Rault argues that the robotic kind has a lot going for it: “You dont have to feed it, you dont have to walk it, it wont make a mess in your house, and you can go on a holi

38、day without feeling guilty.” The technology also benefits those who are allergic to pets, short on space, or fearful of real animals.Its not clear whether robot pets can replace real ones. But studies do suggest that we can bond with these smart machines. People give their cars names and kids give t

39、heir toy animals life stories. Its the same with robots. When Sony stopped its repair service for its robot dog Aibo in March 2014, owners in Japan held funerals.As an animal welfare researcher, Rault is concerned about how robotic pets could affect our attitudes towards live animals. “If we become

40、used to a robotic companion that doesnt need food, water or exercises, perhaps it will change how humans care about other living beings,” he said.So are dogs and cats a thing of the past, as Rault predicts? For those who grew up with living and breathing pets, the mechanical kind might not do. But f

41、or our next generation who are in constant touch with smart technology, a future in which lovely pets neednt have a heartbeat might not be a far-fetched dream.1、What does the underlined phrase “sit well with” means?Abe refused byBbe beneficial toCmake a difference toDreceive support from2、What are t

44、Nothing is more refreshing on a warm summer day than watching someone else work.Right now, Im sitting on my porch and watching young Beth baling (打捆) the big field on top of the hill. Shes been haying that field for over ten years. I know: I put her on the tractor when she was just twelve years old.

45、She picked a great day for baling. Its not too hot, and theres a nice breeze. On Monday, when she cut the field, it was so hot I thought the com would start popping in the field. Didnt stop her, though. She just stuck that big hat on her head, wrapped a wet handkerchief around her neck, and set to w

46、ork, I remember when I would have done the same thing.While Pm here sucking a lemonade, Beth is driving the “hay (干草) train,” a tractor pulling a baler and an old wagon. Youd think someone her size would never be able to see over the tractor. But somehow she manages. When shes finished, her tracks a

47、re very straight.The whole time shes haying, that dog of hers is working just as hard, running along beside her like hes afraid shell drive away without him. Beth sure knew what she was doing when she trained him.The way the machine works is pure poetry. Each row is pushed into shape. When just enou

48、gh hay is in a bale, it is wrapped up and fastened together. A second or so later, the bale comes flying out and into the old wagon. The person who invented that machine sure was some kind of genius.Thats not to say it works perfectly. Every once in a while a bale misses the mark, especially when yo

49、u are turning the machine at the end of a row. That means, of course, that you have to go back and pick up those bales and throw them into the wagon.I can remember when Beths mother was her age. She looked an awful lot like Beth does now. Makes a man proud to see his daughter and granddaughter takin

Not much fun sitting here with an empty glass.1、We can learn from the passage that at some time in the past the author .Abought the tractor for Beth Bforced Beth to work at an early ageCworked in the field like
