【题目】62-year-old Zhang Jianxing has been searching the ancient forests of the Shennongjia National Nature Reserve for over two decades.

Jianxing began living in the 3,200-square-kilometer mountain range in 1994, after becoming fascinated with the Yeren(also Chinese Wild Man), a 6-foot-tall humanoid creature covered in thick red-brown fur. References of the so-called Chinese Wild Man date back to the Zhou Dynasty in the works of classical Qu Yuan.

German Man Creates World‘s Heaviest Bicycle

For 10 months out of every year, for the last 22 years, Jianxing has been living deep in the Shennongjia National Nature Reserve, hoping to meet the Yeren. Dressed in military gear and armed with a camera, he constantly looks for clues of the creature, living off the land and sleeping in abandoned homes and empty caves. To him, the Yeren is more than just an old myth, it’s a branch of scince, one that he has been studying for a very long time.

Jianxing claims he has collected enough evidence of the Wild Man’s existence---over 100 hair samples and 3,000 photos of large footprints---adding that he even came close to seeing it for himself no less than 19 times. And he is not alone in his beliefs. The Wild Man Research Association----yes, there is such a thing---records show reports of Yeren encounters from over 400 locals.

But with no concrete evidence to prove the existence of the Wild Man, most scientists regard it as nothing more than a legend.

Jianxing also added that the local government in Hubei is relying on the Yeren to boost its tourism revenues. In 2012, the Shennongjia Nature Reserve signed an agreement with Beijing to promote holidays for Yeren hunters.

1When does the earliest record of the Yeren date back to?

A. 2012 B. 1994

C. The Ming Dynasty D. The Zhou Dynasty

2While hunting in the Shennongjia National Nature Reserve, Zhang Jianxing__________.

A. seldom cooks B. takes his camera

C. rests in the tree D. carries his raincoat

3Why was an agreement signed in 2012?

C. To develop tourism D. To kill animals

4What can we know about Zhang Jianxing from the passage?

B. He has contributed a lot to the discovery of Yeren

C. He has been fond of living in the ancient forests

D. He has made up his mind to protect the ancient forests

【题目】Tea,the most typical English drink,became established in Britain because of the influence of a foreign princess,Catherine of Braganza,the queen of Charles II.As a lover of tea since her childhood in Portugal,she brought tea-drinking to the English royal court and set a trend forthe beveragein the 17th century.The fashion soon spread beyond the circle of the nobility to the middle classes,and tea became a popular drink at the London coffee houses where people met to do business and discuss events of the day.Many employers served a cup of tea to their workers in the middle of the morning,thus inventing a lasting British institution,the“tea break”. However,drinking tea in social settings outside the workplace was beyond the means of the majority of British people.It came with a high price tag and tea was taxed as well.

Around 1 800,the seventh Duchess of Bedford,Anne Maria,began the popular practice of“afternoon tea,”a ceremony taking place at about four o’clock.Until then,people did not usually eat or drink anything between lunch and dinner.At approximately the same time,the Earl of Sandwich popularized a new way of eating bread—in thin slices,with something like jam or cucumbers between them.Before long,a small meal at the end of the afternoon,involving tea and sandwiches,had become part of the British way of life.

As tea became much cheaper during the 19th century,its popularity spread right through all corners of the British society.Thus,tea became Britain’s favorite drink.In working-class households,it was served with the main meal of the day,eaten when workers returned home after a day’s labor.This meal has become known as“high tea”.Today,tea can be drunk at any time of the day,and accounts for over two-fifths of all drinks consumed in Britain-with the exception of water.

1What is mainly discussed about tea in the text?

A. Its popularity in Europe.

B. Its development in Britain.

C. Its influence around the world.

D. Its traditional ways of drinking.

2Why was tea unable to be accepted as a common drink in Britain in the 17th century?

A. It was merely served in London.

B. It was taxed as an alcoholic drink.

C. It was too expensive for most people.

D. It was forbidden in business settings.

3How is the text organized?

A. In time order.

B. By comparison.

C. By cause and effect.

D. In frequency order.

【题目】The Thanksgiving Day ,the fourth Thursday in November, is coming in America. But do you know something about the annual(每年的)Macy’s Thanksgiving Parade(游行) in New York?

There are thousands of bystanders(看热闹的人)and millions of television viewers. The Parade is as traditional as turkey. The year 2016 was the 90th year of Macy’s parade. It featured 15 huge balloons in the shape of cartoon and pop culture characters, 1,200 dancers and cheerleaders, 900 clowns(小丑),10 marching bands and nearly 9,000 workers, almost all of whom were volunteers.

We create them from scratch(涂抹). I have the finest carpenters(木匠), metal workers, painters all cooperating(合作) together,” said Piper.

The floats were supposed to advertise for commercial sponsors(赞助商) for the start of the Christmas season. But Amy Kule, the event producer said, “ And the floats are used to keep the beauty and the majesty(庄严)of the parade. A Thanksgiving parade is always about giving back and entertaining(娱乐). But most importantly, it’s about leaving it for the next generation.”

1.What can be inferred from the first paragraph?

A. Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade is a custom held each year.

B. The way of celebrating Thanksgiving Day isn’t changed each year.

【题目】Is reading better than watching TV? I believe it is. Is reading better than playing video games? I’m not so sure if it is. If learning is important to you, but not necessarily so, and if pleasure is what you want, these activities can be pleasant in their own way. Reading might be better than many activities if you want to educate yourself and improve your chances of succeeding in your work.

If you’re serious about creating the habit of reading, what’s important is finding a time you can read every day-often that’s early morning or late at night, or both. For others, it might be during their lunch break. You only need to read for 10 to 20 minutes a day to form the habit. Then, you need to find a place that’s comfortable. Make sure it has good lighting, the temperature is nice and you’re in a good chair. Or you can find some place that you can reiax in without failing asleep, although there’s nothing wrong with a sleep.

Next, be sure to shut off the TV, Internet, cell phone, radio, or other music .Let reading be a quiet time. Mark an “x” on your calendar every day you read, and try to keep your unbroken “x”es going as long as possible. A habit is much easier to form if it’s something you enjoy, not something you are made to do. So make the time you spend reading a joy. I’ve been a lifelong reader, so the pleasure of a good book is one of my favorite things in the world. I love to lose myself in the world of a book.

【题目】Do you want to improve your networking skills?If so,check out five ways to promote your networking skills.

Research the event before you go.

Do your research before you attend an event.Figuring out the dress standard and the theme of the event will help you perfect your clothes,attitude,and approach.1Mental preparation will help you feel confident and comfortable.

Describe yourself differently.

Most people choose to describe themselves to strangers by saying their name and job.However,unless you have a unique name and an eye-catching job,this probably won’t help. Give them a little more to work with.2In that case,people may have a chance to ask you a few questions.

Network with everyone.

At networking events,there are probably specific people that you want to talk to.While this could be beneficial to you,don't cut off your other choices.3It can also help you to get noticed by the people you want to speak to.

Smile to make a great first impression.

4According to a research,people decide whether you are trustworthy or not after looking at your face for 34 milliseconds(毫秒).Make those milliseconds count by relaxing the muscles in your face and smiling.

5

Don’t let the end of your conversation affect your networking for the worse.Have a reason for leaving,smile as you say goodbye,and shake hands if appropriate.Even though you are leaving,this guarantees the person will remember you as polite,pleasant,and sincere.

A.First impressions mean a lot.

B.Finish the conversation gracefully.

C.Work on finding a conversational balance.

D.It is important to keep the conversation flowing.
