It was 8:30am and the doorbell rang. I answered the door and there was Mr. Jones, who was from a bike-racing company. Mr. Jones said, “Congratulations! You are one of our finalists(决赛选手) for this year’s US Bike Tour Challenge. If you can ride your bike from here to Miami, Florida and finish it first, you will win $50,000. You can only take ten stops on this race and this doesn’t include overnight stays at hotels. Will you accept this challenge, Mr. Wozniak?” I agreed, and so did my parents.
Mr. Jones explained to me the rules. The race began the next day. The first day was very smooth for me. But unluckily the next four days, I bumped into some rain, which didn’t stop until I reached North Carolina. And I had used six stops because of the bad weather. It would take five days to get to Florida, so I would travel one day without making a stop. And I did it. On the sixth day, I succeeded in riding all the way to Savannah Georgia without a stop. Four days later, I arrived in downtown Miami and I was told that I was in the 4th place. So I thought to myself I could win. At 6:15pm, I found myself head to head with another racer. We both switched gears to head for the finish line.
When the officials announced, “The Ohio competitor, Evan Wozniak, is the winner!”
I was so excited that I fell off my bike. Happily, I got the $50,000 for winning this race. And I did it in ten days.
1.Evan Wozniak is a competitor from ______.
A. Ohio B. North Carolina
C. Savannah Georgia D. Florida
2.Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the text?
A. Mr. Jones was one of the finalists for this year’s US Bike Tour Challenge.
B. Evan Wozniak gave up the challenge for his parents’ disagreement.
C. Riding from Ohio to Florida needs at least 5 days.
D. Evan Wozniak successfully finished his race despite much trouble.
3.The correct route of this year’s US Bike Tour Challenge is ______.
A. Ohio→Savannah Georgia→North Carolina→Miami, Florida
B. Miami, Florida→North Carolina→Savannah Georgia→Ohio
C. Ohio→North Carolina→Savannah Georgia→Miami, Florida
D. Savannah Georgia→→North Carolina→Miami, Florida→ Ohio

Winter care for roses
Do roses need extra care for winter? Like so many other things in the garden, the answer is debatable. 1.
Roses are grouped and referred to by type. Shrub roses 
are the hardiest and need little extra care. Hybrid tea roses and other roses are more likely to need winterization to survive or remain healthy.
2. And even shrub roses exposed to severe winter conditions can suffer. If roses are growing in a location that is subject to heavy winter winds, even the hardiest varieties may benefit from winterization.
Some gardeners live by the theory that if a plant can't grow well, the best bet is to replace it. 3. If you wish to do nothing with your roses, you also have chances of having plants around in the spring. If you like to baby plants along, winterization is for you.
Winterize roses after a hard freeze and cold weather. The first step is to add soil or other plant material over the crown(花冠)of the rose bush. The material should be about 12 inches deep over the crown. The second step to winterizing roses is to tie up the plants. 4. If the plants are tall, use ropes to provide support to them.
When spring comes, remove the added soil from the base of the plant. 5. This is the time to clean up cuts and reduce plant size if desired.
A．Location also plays a role, though.
B．Remove strings if plants have been tied up.
C．So they often change the plants they grow.
D．Other gardeners have plants that are almost like children.
E．You should consider sunshine and water when answering this question.
F．The main purpose is to prevent them from breaking off in the face of strong winds.
G．It depends on the plant variety, growing location and a gardener's personal preference.

科目：高中英语 来源：2017年高考英语考前《考试大纲》调研卷6 题型：阅读理解
A nerve-zapping（电击神经）headset caused people to get rid of fat in a small preliminary study. Six people who had received the stimulation（刺激）lost on average about 8 percent of the fat on their trunks in four months, scientists reported at the annual meeting of the Society for Neuroscience,
The headset stimulated the vestibular nerve（前庭神经）, which runs just behind the ears. That nerve sends signals to the hypothalamus, a brain structure thought to control the body’s fat storage. By stimulating the nerve with an electrical current, the technique shifts the body away from storing fat toward burning it.
Six overweight and obese people received the treatment, consisting of up to four one-hour-long sessions of stimulation a week. Because it activated the vestibular system, the stimulation created the sensation of gently rocking on a boat or floating in a pool, said the study’s co-author Jason McKeown of the University of California, San Diego.
After four months, body scans measured the trunk fat for the six people receiving the treatment and three people who received unreal stimulation. All six in the treatment group lost some trunk fat, despite not having changed their activity or diet. In contrast, those in the unreal group gained some fat. Researchers suspect that changes in the set of life-sustaining chemical transformations within human cells are behind the difference. “The results were a lot better than we thought they’d be,” McKeown said.
Earlier studies found that vestibular nerve stimulation causes mice to drop fat and pack on muscle, resulting in what McKeown called Schwarzenegger mice. Though small, the current study suggests that the approach has promise in people. McKeown and his colleagues have started a company based on the technology and plan to test it further.
1.What is an electrical current used for?
A. Causing the body to bum its fat.
B. Controlling the body’s storage of fat.
C. Seeing if the headset will be affected.
D. Speeding the process of one’s digesting.
2.What’s the probable reason for the different results in participants?
A. The length of stimulation they received.
B. The type of stimulation they received.
C. The difference in their vestibular system.
D. The way chemicals process in their body.
3.Which is true about McKeown’s current findings?
A. They have a kind of practical value.
B. They go against those of earlier tests on mice.
C. They were widely recognized at the meeting.
D. They have been tested by MeKeown’s company.
4.What can be the best title of the text?
A. The science of zapping fat
B. A new trial of weight loss
C. Zapping certain nerves leads to fat loss
D. Exercise for weight loss and get fit
