【题目】 It was a little before nine o'clock on Tuesday night. 【1】 “Do you need a second helping of pudding?"a waitress asked. Antonio, who had already finished a plate of pasta,a Fish Stew and a slice of cake, couldn't answer it right away. The question might be common for most diners, but for him, it was entirely novel because he was homeless and was having the meal for free. 【2】 .He had no preparation for it.
【3】But at night, it transforms itself into a pioneering place where homeless people such as Antonio can dine free of charge, at tables set with flowers, metal cutlery（餐具）and proper glasses.
The restaurant is the latest initiative（初步行动）from the charity Mensajeros de la Paz.It was founded 54 years ago by Father Angel Garcia Rodriguez. Its business model – using breakfast and lunch takings from paying customers to fund free evening meals for the homeless - is simple enough. 【4】 “The inspiration came from Pope Francis, who's spoken again and again about the importance of giving people dignity, whether it's through bread or through work," said Father Angel. “ 【5】People with nothing can come and eat in the restaurant and get the same treatment as everyone else. It's just common sense."
A.By day, the Robin Hood restaurant, which sits on a side street near the center of Madrid,is a typical Spanish bar.
B.So we thought, why not open a restaurant with tablecloths, proper cutlery and waiters?
C.They plan to extend the scheme and hopes it will attract famous chefs to come to cook.
D.It was the first time that he had been asked such a question.
E.The homeless are treated with respect at the restaurant.
F.Antonio found himself facing a welcome dilemma.
G.Its aim, however, is a little ambitious.

【题目】 Ladies, if you find yourselves wandering an unknown city with a man who is questioning your directional abilities, don’t doubt yourselves.
A recent small study published in the journal Psychological Science found that the longstanding theory that women have a more difficult time reading maps wasn’t true.
Historically, men have performed better than women in studies that tested their spatial(空间的)ability. But the leading study author Margaret Tarampi and a researcher from the University of California, Santa Barbara theorized that social influences had an effect on this outcome: The cultural belief that women are worse at reading maps could be seen as a stereotype(固有模式) threat, meaning women believe they’re bad at something, so they perform poorly as a result. The researchers also theorized that women performed better at skills that involve a social element. In other words, if reading a map means helping someone else, they might perform better.
Tarampi and her team tested both theories on undergraduate students at UCSB across three separate experiments. And, indeed, the results showed that men scored better than women only when they were mentioned the stereotype of male superiority before the test.
When the researchers did not mention it and gave a social context for reading the map, women’s scores improved across the board. Women also performed better when the test maps simply included human figures, rather than just random objects and landmarks.
So ladies, next time you struggle to figure out whether you should make a left or right at the Louvre, take out your tourist map with a healthy dose of confidence.

【3】Men performed better than women in the study when .
A.they were asked to help someone else by reading a map
B.they were informed of the stereotype before the test
C.the test maps simply included human figures
D.there were social elements in the map
【4】What can be concluded from the passage?

【题目】Directions: Read the following passage. Fill in each blank with a proper sentence given in the box. Each sentence can be used only once. Note that there are two more sentences than you need.
Most people don’t need science to appreciate the importance of a mother’s love.
But to understand how early maltreatment can derail a child’s development requires careful study. In a famous research, Harry Harlow had demonstrated that proper psychological and physical development of infants requires nurturing and attention from a parent. 【1】 In that research, socially isolated monkey babies that were removed from their mothers were found to be clinging to a cloth-covered surrogate(替代的) mother for comfort.
Such experimentations sound cruel. They, however, have been critical in helping change policies in human orphanages( 孤儿院 ) in the U.S. For centuries some orphanages treated infants equally inhumanely. Despite early evidence that orphanage infants were far more likely to die than others, supporters argued that it didn’t matter whether children had “parents” specially devoted to them at the orphanage. 【2】 Orphans were supposed to be in positive mental and physical health until adoptive parents were found. Babies, they said, couldn’t remember anyway.
The harrowing consequences of these theories were most vividly brought to light in Romania in the 1980s and ‘90s. A ban on abortion（流产 ) led to a surge in orphanage babies. Simply being fed and changed without individualized affection, some babies present serious problems. Many developed violent behaviors, repetitively rocking or banging their heads. Some were cold and withdrawn or indiscriminately affectionate. 【3】 Their head sizes were especially small.
They even had problems with attention and comprehension. The longer these children were left alone, the more damage was seen.
The lack of a secure attachment relationship in the early years has destructive consequences for both physical and mental health later in life, with long-lasting effects. The persistence of these effects emphasizes the need to intervene early in life. The Nobel-prize-winning economist James Heckman, has long argued that investing in early childhood education provides a greater return for society than virtually any other type of spending. It is obviously reflected in increased educational success and productivity,. The reduced crime, addiction, distress and disorder point to the same theory. Early life conditions critically affect adult life. 【4】 Remove it and the harm is great.
A. The appropriate feeding and caring styles were greatly rewarded in all aspects.
B. It was claimed that simply feeding and changing them would be adequate.
C. Some, however, demonstrate little influence with roughly ordinary behavior pattern.
D. Maternal attachment plays a fundamental role in shaping who we are.
E. Necessities are not just the availability of food and water.
F. And they simply didn’t grow like normal infants.

According to the Global Times, different attitudes toward 【3】 (wear) masks largely lie in the cultures. In the West, 【4】 people generally believe is that unless one is already ill, wearing a mask is simply unnecessary.

US infection prevention specialist Eli Perencevich told Forbes, "The average healthy person 【6】 not wear masks." She added, “If they wear them incorrectly it can increase the risk of infection because they're touching their faces more often."

In such uncertain and potentially dangerous time, many people have taken the responsibility 【9】(wear) face masks to ensure the safety of their communities.
Chen Xinjie, a media worker in Beijing said: "Wearing the mask for a long time is stuffy(闷热的) and uncomfortable…But as a member of the group, it's our duty to do so."
【10】(Influence) by social cultures, the attitudes toward wearing a mask can be different in the East and West. But as US essayist Ralph Waldo Emerson once said, “We must each respect others even as we respect ourselves."

【题目】Directions : Read the following passage. Fill in each blank with a proper sentence given in the box. Each sentence can be used only once. Note that there are two more sentences than you need.
Environmental pollution kills 1. 7 million children under the age of five every year worldwide. This is according to the World Health Organization (WHO). The WHO warns that child deaths will increase greatly if pollution continues to worsen.
The most common causes of death among children aged one month to five years are diarrhea, malaria and pneumonia. This is according to the WHO. 【1】 This means providing access to safe water and sanitation, limiting exposure to dangerous chemicals, and improving waste management.
【2】 The WHO estimates that air pollution is responsible for about 6. 5 million premature, or early, deaths every year. That number includes nearly 600, 000 deaths of children under age five. Most of these deaths take place in developing countries.
Air pollution is a leveler between rich and poor, according to WHO environment and health chief Maria Neira. 【3】 And one of the most important ways to reduce air pollution is to produce cleaner fuels for cooking and heating. “Almost half of the world population is using dirty fuels for cooking, heating, and lighting at home. And, this is affecting very much mothers who are staying and cooking at home, but the children who are around mothers -- they are exposed as well. ” Early exposure to harmful pollutants can lead to increased risk of chronic respiratory disease, asthma, heart disease, stroke and cancer later in life.
Cleaning up how the world cooks, heats and lights homes and other buildings is a big- picture goal. The WHO is advising government departments and industries such as construction and the health sector to work together to clean up their environment.
【4】 The U. S. Environmental Protection Agency has the following suggestions:
Avoid walking where there is a high volume of vehicle traffic.
Equip homes with air filters and air conditioning units.
Limit your time outside if you live in an area that issues warnings about air quality.
Wear high-grade, rated face masks tightly to the face when air quality is poor.
Remove your clothes and wash immediately after entering your house if you live or commute in a very polluted area.
A. However, of all the environmental pollutants, air pollution is being called the most dangerous.
B. But what can individuals do to limit our family's exposure to air pollution?
C. Therefore, the WHO stresses that governments around the world need to take the lead on ensuring that children grow up in a clean environment.
D. The organization also says reducing environmental risks can prevent such deaths.
E. A polluted environment is a deadly one—particularly for young children.
F. Everybody, she says, needs to breathe.
