【题目】阅读下面短文，在空白处填入 1 个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。
In late April 2014, a 【1】 (violence) storm swept through the southern United States, destroying more than $ 1 billion in property and killing 35 people. But a group of migratory(迁徙的) birds in eastern Tennessee sensed the oncoming mess and left long before the first clouds arrived. A year 【2】 (early), the team had tagged golden-winged warblers ( 莺 ) with leg trackers 【3】 (study) their annual migrations to South America. Two days before the storms 【4】 (strike)，five golden-winged warblers slipped away, traveling nearly 700 kilometers south to the Florida coast.
It's the first time that the birds which normally migrate with the seasons 【5】 (observe) to slip away when a big storm hits. The researchers suspect this 【6】 (behave) occurs only when the threat of injury outweighs the energy costs of a long trip. But nobody knows 【7】 the birds guessed the storm's severity and left so soon. Puzzled by it, the scientists initially reasoned that delicate changes in weather — atmospheric pressure, temperature, wind speed, cloud cover, or rainfall signaled 【8】 upcoming disaster. Yet when they checked weather records, none of these factors waved significantly 【9】 the storm. Instead, the team assumes that the 【10】 (approach) storms created a disorder of infrasounds—low-frequency sound waves that birds can hear, but humans can't.

【题目】 English is full of funny expressions that don’t always make sense. What do they mean? How do we use them? And where did they come from? Idioms are phrases and sentences that do not mean exactly what they say. Even if you know the meaning of each word you see or hear, you may not understand the idiom because you don’t understand the culture behind it. Here are some English idioms based on animals.
When children jump around and act silly, for example, their parents may tell them to stop “monkeying around”. To “monkey around” means to do things that are not useful or serious, or to simply waste time.
But spending time playing with their family pets wouldn’t count as “monkeying around”. Many American families have a pet dog, which keeps the children company and makes them happy. Bu for some reason, which American language experts do not know, Americans use “dog” in a phrase that means to feel unwell. If you are “as sick as a dog”, you’re really, really sick and will have to stay home and rest or even go and see a doctor.
Apart from dogs, cats are also beloved in U.S. households. Sometimes you may hear them mentioned in Americans’ conversations, “I told you to keep that secret, but you have just ‘let the cat out of the bag’!” You probably guessed it — that idiom means to reveal a secret or tell facts that were previously unknown.
Dogs and cats don’t always get along, but they appear side by side in a commonly used idiom. When it rains heavily, people might say it’s “raining cats and dogs” outside.
Bad weather often ruins people’s plans for outdoor activities. But on a lovely day, they can go on an outing or have a picnic in the park. If a swarm of tiny bugs decide they love your picnic food and start to hover (盘旋) around you and your friends, then it would be really annoying, wouldn’t it? That experience perfectly explains why people often tell someone who keeps bothering them to “stop bugging me”.
Idioms are very common in both spoken and written English, so learning them is very important. If you need to understand English, or if you want to speak or write natural-sounding English, you have to learn idioms.
【1】According to Paragraph 1, idioms are_____.
A.phrases and sentences based on animals
B.expressions with rich cultural background
C.funny expressions that always make sense
D.the total sum of the meanings of the words
【2】“Monkeying around” can be used to describe children_____.
A.jumping around and wasting time
B.doing something useful and serious
C.playing with monkeys with their parents
D.spending time playing with their family pets
【3】What can be learned from the text?
A.Dogs and cats are friends by nature.
B.Bugs can be used to show your annoyance.
C.Americans believe cats can give away secrets.
D.Americans know the origin of the idiom “as sick as a dog”.
【4】How does the text mainly develop?
A.By sharing experiences.B.By making comparisons.
C.By providing examples.D.By quoting experts' words.

【题目】 The traditional Chinese lunar calendar divides the year into 24 solar terms(节气). Major Snow, the 21st solar term of the year, begins this year on December 7 and ends on December 22. During Major Snow, the snow becomes heavy and begins to accumulate on the ground. The temperature drops significantly.【1】 .
●Snowy winter
【2】 . The natural scenery is “ice blockading for hundreds miles and snow flying through thousands miles”. In the South, the snowflakes fly and the world turns white. About the snow, a proverb goes, “A timely snow promises a good harvest”. As the snow covers the ground, pests living through the winter will be killed by the low temperature.
●【3】
Wintersweet(腊梅花)usually blossoms in mid-to-late December in some southern cities of China. Sometimes it even blooms earlier. Wintersweet originated in China and is highly appreciated in Chinese culture for its endurance in severe winters. With pine and bamboo, it is referred to as one of the Three Friends of Winter.
●Eating lamb
Lamb is the main food chosen by Chinese people during Major Snow.【4】. People in Chongqing like to have potted lamb soup or stewed(炖)lamb soup with their families and friends. Nanjing residents like to stew the lamb with yams or wolfberries to make it more nutritious.
●Preventing respiratory (呼吸系统) illness
The Chinese people during this period pay attention to the outbreak of respiratory illness, which can be prevented by wearing a warm scarf to protect the neck and drinking water properly. During Major Snow, it is drier and colder, so people should drink more water.【5】.
A.Appreciating wintersweet
B.Blooming wintersweet

E.But one should drink too much water at once

【题目】 Whether you’re going in for checkups or common tests in the hospital, here’s how to get the most out of your next visit.
If you’re going in for a regular doctor visit, you’re probably going to have your blood pressure taken. So it’s best to avoid coffee right before your appointment. 【1】 Using coffee or other caffeine such as energy drinks or colas within an hour of having your blood pressure measured can make the number artificially higher. 【2】
They also may cause untrue results.
You probably want to show the doctor your best health. 【3】 Before an annual appointment, your providers would like you to be honest and upfront about your lifestyle and diet so they can have an accurate history of your health and provide you with the best possible care. You may think improving an unhealthy diet close to your appointment date is necessary. 【4】 It takes a long time for diet to change cholesterol and blood sugar, so a dietary change of a few days or meals isn’t going to do much. Changes occur over the long term, so it’s best to eat healthy as much as you can.
No matter what kind of appointment you have, you may be a bit nervous-after all, being examined by a doctor can make us feel vulnerable and even embarrassed. But if you write down the things you want to talk about before you go (or even make a note on your phone), you’re less likely to forget or lose you nerve. It’s helpful if you come in with your list of questions. 【5】
A.You may get too nervous to ask.
B.The same goes for tobacco products.
C.It might affect the results.
D.But probably that wouldn’t matter.
E.Your doctor wants you to feel better.
F.It’s not necessary to change your eating habits.
G.Don’t be afraid to write down.

【题目】 Following the outbreak of the novel coronavirus pneumonia (NCP), also named COVID -19 by WHO, there is a general fear of the unknown virus as its full effects remain to be seen. Fever, coughing, sore throat, difficulty breathing – the NCP’s symptoms are similar to the common cold or the flu, but it’s potentially more dangerous.
Viruses could be deadly, like HIV and Ebola. 【1】 How can they cause so much trouble?
Viruses are non-living organisms approximately one-millionth of an inch long. Unlike human cells or bacteria, they can’t reproduce on their own. Instead, they invade the cells of living organisms to reproduce, spread and take over.
Viruses can infect every living thing – from plants and animals down to the smallest bacteria. 【2】 Sometimes a virus can cause a disease so serious that it is fatal. Other viral infections bring about no noticeable reaction.
Viruses lie around our environment all of the time, waiting for a host cell to come along. They can enter our bodies by the nose, mouth, eyes or breaks in the skin. 【3】 For example, HIV, which causes AIDS, attacks the T-cells of the immune system.
But the basic question is, where did viruses first come from? 【4】 “Tracing the origins of viruses is difficult,” Ed Rybicki, a virologist at the University of Cape Town in South Africa, told Scientific American, “because viruses don’t leave fossils (化石) and because of the tricks they use to make copies of themselves within the cells they’ve invaded.”
However, there are three main theories to explain the origin of viruses. First, viruses started as independent organisms, then became parasites (寄生者). Second, viruses evolved from pieces of DNA or RNA that “escaped” from larger organisms. Third, viruses co-evolved with their host cells, which means they existed alongside these cells.
【5】 The technology and evidence we have today cannot be used to test these theories and identify the most plausible explanation. Continuing studies may provide us with clearer answers.
A.But what are viruses?
B.For the time being, these are only theories.
C.Once inside, they try to find a host cell to infect.
D.The answer may be even less satisfactory than it now appears.
E.Until now, no clear explanation for their origin exists.
F.Experts are concerned about the bad effect that it had on people’s health.
G.For this reason, they always have the potential to be dangerous to human life.

【题目】阅读下面短文, 根据所给情节进行续写,使之构成一个完整的故事。
It was a peaceful night. I was sleeping with my brothers, feeling warm and comfortable. Mama was sleeping nearby, covered by snow. Papa was somewhere nearby, watching over us. There was a bright moon and we had all had a good meal of venison (鹿肉) Papa had caught earlier.
“Uncle Louis is coming”, Papa said. We loved Uncle Louis. He was a funny wolf, and always had interesting things to tell us and show us.
A little while later, Uncle Louis appeared. We did not approach him with respect the way we approached Papa. We flew at him, jumped all over him, and rolled him in the snow. Uncle Louis laughed and patted us with his paws. He is black all over, with yellow eyes, and he is very tall.
“It's the longest night of the year” , Uncle Louis said, “Does everyone feel like taking a run through the woods? I want to show you something unusual.”
Hearing that, Papa warned that it was dangerous to go near that pack of humans who lived in the woods.
“They are hardly dangerous”, Uncle Louis laughed, “They are so clumsy and make so much noise. They are not able to get near us--or even see us if we don't want them to. Besides, this is their special night. They are quite peaceful and won't be bothering about wolves.”
“Oh, please, Papa, let us run through the woods with Uncle Louis and see something unusual! “ We all begged.
“It is a fine night”, Papa smiled, “I must admit, I do feel like running.”
