第二部分：阅读理解（40分）      A

The world’s best underwater hotels

Atlantis The Palm, Dubai

The underwater rooms at Atlantis The Palm really are fit for the king of the seas. Set alongside a huge aquarium , they are pretty much the most romantic place you could ever dream of, as long as you don’t have nightmares about sharks! This unusual hotel room costs around $7,000 a night. 

Conrad Maldives Rangali Island, Maldives

The Conrad Maldives Rangali Island doesn’t have an underwater room, but you can still have dinner below the waves, without having to wear a diving suit. The Ithaa Undersea Restaurant is located sixteen feet below sea level and while you eat happily, sharks and fishes swirl (旋转) above your head. Set menus cost upwards of $300 per person. Book at least a couple of weeks ahead.

Utter Inn, Västerås, Sweden

The Utter Inn was designed by local artist Mikael Genberg and is one of the cheapest underwater hotels out there, floating on Lake Mälaren, near Stockholm. From $250 a night, this is more like an unusual ship’s cabin than luxury (奢侈的) accommodation, but as an appealing twist on traditional Swedish living, it’s now a very fashionable place to spend the weekend.

Jules’ Undersea Lodge, Key Largo, Florida

Jules’ Undersea Lodge is named after the author of Twenty Thousand Leagues Under the Sea and is the oldest underwater hotel, surrounded by angelfish and other species off the coast of Florida. Getting there is somewhat of a challenge — it’s located 21 feet beneath the surface of the sea. Brave couples can stay the night here for $800.

21. What should you do before visiting the Conrad Maldives Rangali Island?

A. Book in advance.       B. Buy a diving suit.

C. Get enough oxygen.     D. Prepare your own meals.

22. Which hotel is the cheapest?       A. Utter Inn.   B. Atlantis The Palm.

C. Jules’ Undersea Lodge.         D. Conrad Maldives Rangali Island.

23. Where does Jules’ Undersea Lodge’s name come from?       A. A sea. 

 B. A coast.        C. A kind of fish.            D. A famous writer.

B 

When I was a child, I would never run in the playground. While my friends were playing “tag”, I was sat on the sidelines unfortunately unable to play at their level. I remember an old photograph from a sports day in which my peers (同龄人) are all close to the finish line while I struggle at the halfway point.

By the time I was about 12 years old, I was using a wheelchair as my condition continued to worsen. Within an appointment with my doctor, he suggested cutting off my right leg. After hearing that, my heart immediately sank but the little cogs (轮齿) in my mind started moving. I had a foot that wasn’t working so why not just cut it off in order to get a new one.

I was wheeled down to surgery and after a quick injection, I was one sleep away from the start of my new life. I remember, the next day, I felt a rush of energy, as I was no longer in pain. I went privately in June 2017 and was fitted with a walking leg.

The doctor told me to be extremely careful with my walking leg. Despite this, I felt great: My mindset was changing and I started to see the world from a much taller level. No longer was I at the height of a child, I was walking and was going to be running as a young man. I started with 10-mile courses, initially (开始) walking most of the course until I could eventually run most of it. I completed events that I had never thought would be possible. The London Marathon, 36 Tough Mudder events, the World Judo Games … I was named British Judo’s Inclusion Player of the Year, and am now ranked top three in the world for judo.

I run because I couldn’t and I run for those that can’t. I run to show others that they are able to do things that they never thought would be possible and I run because I’m a runner.

25. What was the author’s attitude towards the doctor’s advice?

A. Doubtful.          B. Favorable.      C. Unsatisfied.         D. Unconcerned.

26. Which word can best describe the author’s life after he had the surgery?

A. Disappointing.        B. Brand-new.     C. Hopeless.           D. Peaceful.

27. Why does the author run?

A. To recover from his illness.     B. To prove the doctor wrong.

C. To become a world-class athlete.   D. To encourage others to chase their dreams.

C 

Vida Woodhull Stabler is the director of the Omaha culture center at Omaha Nation Public Schools in Macy, Nebraska. She has been working for years to pass on the cultural knowledge of tribal (部落的) elders for future generations. But she faces a predicament: Only about a dozen Omaha tribe members speak the language fluently today.

For Kyleigh Merrick, 15, learning the Omaha language as a teen today is important but also a challenge. She goes to language class every day, but outside of class, there are few opportunities to speak it. Her great-grandmother uses it at home, but among her peers, only a handful will sometimes greet each other in the Omaha language. At school, only a few students are taking Omaha language classes and seem deeply interested in tribal language and culture. 

Another big force that has worked against passing the native tribal language on over generations is boarding schools . The local government began sending native students to boarding schools from the 1800s to the 1960s. Students there were not allowed to express tribal culture and were taught only English.

“Our language does not have access to the same types of materials that Spanish and German do ― you can walk into any library and find Spanish books to read,” Stabler said. “Our community has had to develop tangible (有形的) materials on our own. The first challenge is ensuring people want to learn. The second is making sure they have materials to learn from.”

At Omaha Nation Public Schools, Stabler put tribal culture into students’ everyday school experiences, like hanging up a calendar with months in English and Omaha. In biology class, for instance, kids might make traditional tribal foods.

For Stabler, the work of making sure tribal culture lives on into the next generations never stops. “If students are rooted to our land ― they’ll be rooted as human beings,” Stabler said.

28. What does the underlined part “a predicament” in Paragraph 1 probably mean?

A. A golden chance.    B. A tough decision.

C. A difficult situation.    D. A different direction.

29. What do we know about Kyleigh Merrick?   A. She knows many Omaha speakers.

B. She is able to speak some tribal language.    C. She seldom takes language classes.  

D.. She thinks learning the Omaha language is easy for her.

30. What do Stabler’s words in Paragraph 4 suggest?

A. Few students have an interest in learning the Omaha language.

B. Spanish and German books should be banned from libraries.

C. More reading materials in the Omaha language should be provided.

D. The local government forces students to speak only English in school.

31. What efforts does Stabler make to keep the Omaha language alive?

A. Setting up tribal libraries.      B. Introducing tribal culture to school.

C. Persuading students to learn the Omaha language.

D. Encouraging tribal elders to teach the Omaha language.

D 

This year’s flu season is shaping up to be a bad one. The new type of flu virus is more severe than most. In addition many people find the vaccine this year to be less effective, and others are wondering if they should still get a flu shot. The answer is yes. 

Each summer, scientists try to make a best guess on which variants (变体) are going to be more common in the coming year. They look at data from other countries, and then they make the shot to match.

Sometimes a vaccine doesn’t work well because some variants change too much. That’s why in any year, even when you’re vaccinated, you can get the flu. The shot is about reducing your risk, not getting rid of it. 

“Less” and “more” effective are relative terms, so we need to focus more on absolute risks. In 2010, researchers published an in-depth analysis of all flu shot studies. They showed that when a vaccine was considered effective, 1.2% of vaccinated people had the flu, while 3.9% of unvaccinated people had the flu. That’s an absolute risk reduction (ARR) of 2.7 percentage points. In studies in which the flu shot was considered ineffective, 1.1& of vaccinated people had the flu compared with 2.4% of unvaccinated people. The ARR was 1.3% points.

Let’s say this year’s flu vaccine is even worse than we think. Maybe the ARR will be as low as 1 percentage point. That’s still not that bad. Given the millions who are likely to suffer from flu and the thousands of deaths each year, this is a big payoff in public health. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) says that 9 million to 36 million people become ill with the flu each year in the United States. Somewhere between 140,000 and 710,000 of them require hospitalization, and 12,000 to 56,000 die each year.

No vaccine is perfectly protective in any year. But to minimize your chances of illness, yes, you should still get the flu shot this year, and any year.

32. What is the paragraph2 mainly about?

A. Why some vaccines are ineffective.    B. Why people should get vaccines.

C. How a new vaccine is developed.      D. How people survive flu in summer.

33. What can the ARR tell us according to the text?  A. How dangerous flu could be.

B. The risk of a vaccine. C. How flu spreads. D. The effectiveness of a flu vaccine.

34. Why does the author provide the CDC’s figures? 

A. To show many people suffer from serious diseases each year. 

B. To show flu vaccines are sometimes ineffective.

C. To show flu is a major cause of human death.

D. To show vaccines can still save many people.

35. What is the main purpose of the text?   A. To report a threatening type of flu virus.

B. To persuade people to receive flu vaccines.   C. To explain the spread of flu viruses.

D. To give an introduction to this year’s vaccine. 

七选五：                Future football stars

       Football academies were set up by leading football clubs so their coaches could run trials to discover and train talented boys from as young as eight as potential players for their first team.

       This means that in Britain there are at least 9,000 boys at any one time attending academies after school who think they are going to be a famous footballer.  36  One eight-year-old was selected for Chelsea Academy and he went from being top of his class at school to being the boy who was messing around at the back. His mother asked him why he wasn’t trying hard at school any more. His reply was that he was going to be a footballer and be rich, so he didn’t need to. In the end, he only lasted a year in the academy.  37  And he wasn’t so discouraged that he never played football again.

        38  Any sport where only a few can get to the top has many talented failures. These people are very good and do their best but finally it will not pay off because they are just not outstanding enough. In football, this effect is big because the number of players chosen by academies is so huge.  39  

       This doesn’t put off all the boys who are spotted by the big football clubs and are desperate to join the academies.  40  They get to play as much football as possible. The skills become part of them, as they are with professional players, so they are automatic and the boys don’t have to think about them when they’re on the football field.

A. Unfortunately, for most this isn’t the case.

B. The benefits are still there for them of course.

C. All the big football clubs have a football academy.

D. But, luckily for him, he was still young enough to get over it.

E. But football is not alone when it comes to this kind of thing.

F. Most of these won’t get into a team and most won’t become professionals.

G. And footballers are much more likely to get injured when they play games.

第五部分：短文改错（满分10分）I can’t live without music. It may not sound practically because things such as food, water and air is much more important than music for human beings. However, I think the thought of change the world by spreading the joy of music is not that ridiculous. Cimorelli is one of my favorite band. I’ve downloaded the great many of their songs. Whenever I feel down or disappointing, I listen to them because the lyrics (歌词) are positive and meaningful. Thanks to their songs, I have realized the important of helping others and that being different is not something to be ashamed. I also liked singing. Although I’m not really good at it, but I still enjoy it. I love music and I believe that great music can change people’s lives.

作文：Dear Frank,

I’m glad to hear you’ll be coming to Beijing to study next month. I’d like to welcome you and give you some suggestions on how to choose a suitable host family.

First, it’s important to make sure where you stay is near your school in case of heavy traffic during rush hours. Besides, it’s better to find a host family that can cover water and electricity charges. In addition, a well-educated host would be helpful to your learning Chinese history and culture. Last but not least, you should take living and diet habits into consideration.

I hope my advice will be helpful.

                                                 Yours, 

                                                 Li Hua
