這是一篇說明文。文章介紹中國筷子的歷史以及筷子的風(fēng)俗習(xí)慣。

【1】考查介詞。句意：我們中國人用筷子吃飯。介詞with“和……在一起，用”符合句意，故填with。

【2】考查一般過去時態(tài)的被動語態(tài)。句意：據(jù)說中國最早的筷子是在5000多年前發(fā)明的。主語從句的主語是chopsticks，復(fù)數(shù)形式，和謂語動詞develop之間是一種被動關(guān)系，再根據(jù)時間狀語over 5,000 years ago可知，此處用一般過去時態(tài)的被動語態(tài)，故填were developed。

【3】考查形容詞最高級。句意：出土于河南安陽附近的殷墟，可以追溯到公元前1200年左右，這是最早的青銅筷子的證據(jù)。定冠詞the用在形容詞最高級前面，再結(jié)合句意可知此處用形容詞最高級，故填earliest。

【4】考查非限制性定語從句。句意：筷子在中國各地的尺寸大致相同，可以用多種材料制成，包括竹子、木材、塑料、銀和金。此處Chopsticks是先行詞，指物，放在后面的定語從句中作主語，且that不能引導(dǎo)非限制性定語從句，故填which。

【5】考查名詞復(fù)數(shù)。句意：筷子在中國各地的尺寸大致相同，可以用多種材料制成，包括竹子、木材、塑料、銀和金。固定詞組：a variety of“各種各樣的”。后面跟名詞復(fù)數(shù)，故填materials。

【6】考查不定冠詞an的用法。句意：筷子在中國飲食文化中扮演著重要的角色。固定詞組：play a role in“在……中扮演角色”。此處important以元音因素開頭，表示“一”時用不定冠詞an。故填an。

【7】考查動名詞作主語。句意：這是因?yàn)榫S持足夠的食物供應(yīng)是天地之間最大的關(guān)系。此處because引導(dǎo)的表語從句中缺少主語，所給詞maintain是動詞，所以這里是動名詞作主語，故填maintaining。

【8】考查名詞。句意：中國有一個古老的習(xí)俗，那就是制作筷子，作為女孩的嫁妝，因?yàn)?/span>kuaizi的發(fā)音與“快”和“兒子”的發(fā)音相似。分析句子結(jié)構(gòu)the___8___(pronounce) of可知此空用名詞，所給詞pronounce是動詞，其名詞形式是pronunciation。故填pronunciation。

【9】考查副詞。句意：筷子在日常生活中經(jīng)常使用。此處used是動詞，由副詞修飾，故填frequently。

【10】考查形容詞性物主代詞。句意：它們已經(jīng)不僅僅是一種餐具，而且已經(jīng)形成了自己的一套禮儀和習(xí)俗。此處own“自己的”是形容詞，和形容詞性物主代詞連用，故填their。

【題目】 While enjoying good incomes, physicians suffer from a lack of time. Between scheduled clinical work and being on call, it’s common to have only one full day off in seven. Not surprisingly, it’s far too easy to spend that entire day just trying to do the boring tasks for yourself and your family.

The good news, however, is that new research published in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences suggests that many professionals can increase their happiness by using their incomes to buy back some of that lost time through the use of time-saving services such as housecleaners or online personal assistants.

Study authors Ashley Whillans and Elizabeth Dunn found that when people spend money on such services, happiness improves. Their findings suggest that “using money to buy time may provide benefits by serving as a buffer（緩沖器）against the harmful effects of time pressure on overall life satisfaction”.

Spending money on a big purchase, such as an expensive car, can feel good and serve as a reward for having worked so hard. Research has consistently shown, however, that the gains from such material purchases are short lived. Instead, buying back time and then using it to go after meaningful activities is more likely to result in long-term gains in well-being.

There are the obvious tasks that have been outsourced（外包）for decades，such as house cleaning or meal preparation. In my own physician coaching practice, it amazes me how many of my physician clients do not take full advantage of these classic opportunities to save time, particularly meal services. When your time is worth well over $100 to 200 an hour, how could you NOT pay another person far less than that to do the job better than you would do it yourself?

Regaining a couple of hours on your only day off can change your well-being. How different would you feel if you had a few more hours to spend quality time with other people, improve your health, or try a new hobby?

【1】Which of the following is true according to this passage?

A.Physicians often do boring tasks for their family.

B.Time pressure often has effects on life satisfaction.

C.Physician clients never use time-saving services.

D.People all should regain time to change their well-being.

【2】What will lead to long-term gains in well-being?

A.Meal preparation.B.Earning high incomes.

C.Buying expensive materials.D.Spending quality time with family.

【3】What is the author?

A.A physician coach.B.A salesman.

C.A researcher.D.A reporter.

【4】What’s the author’s purpose of writing the passage?

A.To persuade people to spend money wisely.

B.To introduce some ways to gain happiness.

C.To advise physicians to buy time for happiness.

D.To state physicians’ terrible working environment.

【題目】 If humans ever settle on Mars, they will need water. There is just one problem---there seems to be only huge sheets of ice. Luckily, we know how to drill(鉆孔） ice for water. Such methods are already used in Antarctica, and researchers now think they could get them to work on the Red Planet, too. The atmosphere of Mars is too dry to make extracting water vapour from it possible. So ice seems the best bet. But the obvious ice sheets are in the unlivable polar ice caps and would be difficult to reach for drilling.

However, in 2018, at the edge of the cliffs, NASA's Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter spotted relatively accessible water ice that is probably at least 130metres thick and covered in just a few metres of rock and dust. These may be the best place to get the water needed for future exploration of the planet.

The drilling techniques needed have already been developed for cold areas on Earth where we need to melt buried ice for water. In the early 1960s the US Army used a type of subsurface reservoir(水庫)called Rod Well, in army camps in Greenland. The method works by drilling through the ground into the ice, melting the ice to create a pool, and then pumping water up. By supplying heat continuously, they create a reservoir and a steady water supply. It has been used in remote areas such as the Amundsen-Scott South Pole Station Stephen Hoffman at the Aerospace Corporation in Texas and his colleagues simulated(模擬)how a Rod Well would do on Mars. They found that with the power of 9 kilowatts (千瓦)to melt ice, it could in theory produce about 380 litres of water each day and maintain a reservoir of constant size at the bottom of a borehole(鉆孔). That is close to the average daily water use each person in the US, but about 10 times what each astronaut on the International Space Station uses daily.

【1】Which of the following can replace the underlined word "extracting" in the first paragraph ?

A.obtainingB.protecting

C.PreventingD.choosing

【2】Why does the author mention the Rod Well in Paragraph 3?

A.To explain how water ice is drilled on Mars.

B.To tell about the history of water ice drilling techniques.

C.To prove the importance of water ice drilling techniques

D.To show techniques for drilling water wells in Martian ice exist.

【3】On average, how much water does an astronaut on the International Space Station use daily?

A.10 litresB.38 litres

C.160 litresD.380 litres

【4】What would be the best title for the text?

A.Preparing to settle on the Red Planet one day.

B.Finding water on the Red Planet for survival.

C.Using some ways to create a livable environment on Mars.

D.Drilling water wells in Martian ice to survive on Mars.

【題目】 Elephant, horse and cow wastes could be endless sources for a key element needed to make paper. It is good news for some nations where trees are scarce while animal wastes come in especially handy.

The idea for the unusual use of elephant and cow wastes first came to mind when researcher Dr Alexander Bismarck noticed something strange about goat wastes while vacationing in Greece. He observed some goats eating summer-dry grass and came to an interesting conclusion about what they digest.

Dr Bismarck said： “I realized what comes out in the end is partially digested plant matter so there must be cellulose （纖維素）there". Animals eat dry grass containing cellulose, chew it and digest it in their stomach and then produce wastes. Up to 40 percent of those wastes are cellulose, which is easily accessible. Therefore, making paper from the partially digested material would take much less energy than using raw wood. Additionally, it would require fewer chemical treatments.

This supply of raw material is plenty： parks in Africa that are home to hundreds of elephants produce tons of wastes every day, and enormous cattle farms in the US and Europe produce mountains of wastes.

In order to make paper, the material must be processed with a special method. But it requires little because there is no need to break it down into small parts for use in paper, in contrast to conventional methods which need a lot of energy to break down wood.

Using wastes, we can reduce the number of steps needed in papermaking, simply because the animal already chewed the plant and attacked it with acid in their stomachs. You inexpensively produce a paper staff that has the same or even better properties than that from wood, with lower energy and chemical consumption.

【1】What is mainly talked about in paragraph 2?

A.The observation of goat wastes.B.The usage of animal wastes.

C.The origin of the unusual idea.D.The vacation spent in Greece.

【2】Animal wastes can be used to make paper mainly because ________.

A.they will never run outB.they are easy to access

C.they are partly digestedD.they contain much cellulose

【3】What is the advantage of making paper from animal wastes?

A.It is more profitable.B.It is energy-saving.

C.It needs less material.D.It fits all parts of the world.

【4】What is the probable explanation of the underlined word “attack"?

A.Treat.B.Mix.

C.Clean.D.Protect.
