【题目】The Roma originally lived in northern India in ________ is now Pakistan, and later tried in vain to settle down ________ they could live and trade peacefully.

A.where; whereB.which; in whichC.which; whereD.what; where

【答案】D

【解析】

考查宾语从句和地点状语从句。句意:吉普赛人最初生活在印度北部,也就是现在的巴基斯坦,后来他们试图在那里定居,并进行和平贸易,但没有成功。第一空是介词in后面的宾语从句,从句缺少引导词,又缺少主语,所填词其双重作用,what表示“……的地方”,所以第一空填what;第二空表示地点,作地点状语,故用where引导。故选D

【题目】Have you ever run into a careless cell phone user on the street? Perhaps they were busy talking, texting or checking updates on WeChat without looking at what was going on around them. As the number of this new “species” of human has kept rising, they have been given a new name — phubbers(低头族).

Recently, a cartoon created by students from China Central Academy of Fine Arts put this group of people under the spotlight. In the short film, phubbers with various social identities bury themselves in their phones. A doctor plays with his cell phone while letting his patient die, a pretty woman takes selfie(自拍照)in front of a car accident site, and a father loses his child without knowing about it while using his mobile phone. A chain of similar events eventually leads to the destruction of the world.

Although the ending sounds overstated, the damage phubbing can bring is real. Your health is the first to bear the effect and result of it. “Constantly bending your head to check your cell phone could damage your neck,” Guangming Daily quoted doctors as saying. “the neck is like a rope that breaks after long-term stretching.” Also, staring at cell phones for long periods of time will damage your eyesight gradually, according to the report.

But that’s not all. Being a phubber could also damage your social skills and drive you away from your friends and family. At reunions with family or friends, many people tend to stick to their cell phones while others are chatting happily with each other and this creates a strange atmosphere, Qilu Evening News reported.

It can also cost you your life. There have been lots of reports on phubbers who fell to their death, suffered accidents, and were robbed of their cell phones in broad daylight.

1For what purpose does the author give the example of a cartoon in Paragragh2?

A. To inform people of the bad effects of phubbing.

B. To advertise the cartoon made by students.

C. To indicate the world will finally be destroyed by phubbers.

D. To warn doctors against using cell phones while treating patients.

2Which of the following is NOT a risk a phubber may have?

A. His social skills could be affected.

B. His neck and eyesight will be gradually harmed.

C. He will cause the destruction of the world.

D. He might get separated from his friends and family.

3Which of the following may be the author’s attitude towards phubbing?

A. Supportive. B. Opposed.

C. Optimistic. D. Objective.

4What may the passage talk about next?

A. Advice on how to use a cell phone.

B. People who are addicted to phubbing.

C. The possible consequences of phubbing.

D. Measures to reduce the risks of phubbing.

【题目】 About 12 years ago, I began making a series of dolls called “Wee Forest Folk”. At first, I made them from cloth but then began using a kind of polymer clay (软陶) called Cernit. The cloth dolls were beautiful, but it was impossible to get the level of details (细节) I can get with clay.

First, I use wire (金属丝) to build the shape of the doll. Then I cover the head, hands, and feet around the wire by using the Cernit. Then I make the doll's clothes myself, using lots of different materials. The completed dolls are fixed onto hardwood bases made by my father, Jim Logan.

Generally, the dolls show older people taking part in traditional activities. I've always had a great respect for the older generation.

Inspiration for the dolls often comes from people I know. Once I was caught looking too closely at the wrinkles (皱纹) on the face of one of my mom's friends. But I explained that her laughter lines made her more attractive.

Now I work as a teacher's assistant, and while I was raising my two daughters, Keri and Sheryl, I could work on the dolls only late at night. The girls loved to come downstairs the next morning to see who'd arrived in the night.

It's the detail that I enjoy working on the most. I once made a fisherman doll for a lady to give her father, including a tiny creel — a basket used by fishermen for carrying fish. When the man got the doll, he immediately opened the creel to see what was inside. Luckily, I'd made a small fish out of Cernit and placed it in the basket.

Hopefully my story will inspire others to try their hand at doll making — I find it very relaxing and interesting.

1The dolls called “Wee Forest Folk” were________

A.totally handmade

B.mainly made of cloth

C.usually for small kids

D.often designed by the author's father

2Why did the author look closely at her mother's friend's face?

A.To guess her age.

B.To get creative ideas.

C.To give her a surprise.

D.To find out why she was so attractive.

3The author tells the story of the fisherman doll to show that________

A.it takes much effort to make a doll

B.it is difficult to satisfy everyone

C.the old also love her dolls

D.her dolls have fine details

【题目】If you thought pilots dimmed(调暗)the lights before takeoff to give you some shuteye, think again. Believe it or not, the dim lighting could actually help save your life in case of a plane emergency.

The dimmed lights before taking off the runway and landing are a flight precaution used to help passengers’ eyes adjust quicker during an emergency escape. “Going from a brightly lit environment to one that’s completely dark would require some time for our eyes to focus and see the escape slide,” Alice Theriault, service director for Air Canada wrote in a press statement. “Since we need to have all the seconds on our side in the event of an emergency, dimming the lights is one of many steps we take to ensure the safety of our customers.”

The phenomenon that your eyes see those strange speckles (小斑点) as your sight adjusts to a dark place after being in a light place is called dark adaptation. It normally takes our eyes about 20 to 30 seconds to see best in a dark room. The brighter the lights, the longer it takes for our eyes to adjust, which is why dimming the plane lights could shorten your “dark adaptation” time since you haven’t been sitting under fluorescent bulbs (荧光灯) all flight.

Not only does dimming lights add valuable time to the escape process, but it reduces the tension on your eyes if you need to look outside, or see the emergency lighting along the passage. “It helps keep you in the right direction.” Patrick Smith, an airline pilot and author of Cockpit Confidential told The Telegraph. “It also makes it easier for flight attendants to assess any outside risks, such as fire or debris, that might affect an escape.” So next time a pilot dims the lights, just know it’s for your safety, even though it creates a gentle atmosphere for your takeoff into the sky.

1The lights are turned down before takeoff to help passengers_______.

A. escape in time of emergency

B. take a short break

C. create a comfortable atmosphere

D. enjoy themselves

2Which of the following is True according to Paragragh 2 and 3?

A. Dimming lights is required when accidents happen.

B. Our eyes need some time to adapt to the change of light.

C. Speckles are caused by the use of dimmed lights.

D. It is required for pilots to turn off lights during the flight.

3What is the function of shortening “dark adaptation” time?

A. Slowing down the landing.

B. Adjusting the plane lights.

C. Keeping passengers calm.

D. Helping the crew judge outside risks.

4What is the text mainly about?

A. A tip to make air travel safer.

B. An emergency event happening on a plane.

C. An explanation of an airline safety measure.

D. A warning message from the pilot.
