第二部分  阅读理解（共两节，满分40分）

第一节 （共15小题；每小题2分，满分30分）

阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出最佳选项。

A

During ancient times, children didn’t have smartphones, iPad or computers to entertain themselves. Instead, they came up with interesting games to play.

★ Stone balls

During the Qing Dynasty, kicking a stone ball around was a popular sport in the northern part of China, and it was often played in the winter to protect kids from the cold. Stones were carved into small balls and kicked along with feet. In 1999, the sport was included in the 6th National Ethnic Group Traditional Sports Meeting held in Beijing.

★ Flying kites

Kites have quite a long history. The earliest kites were made of wood, instead of paper. Nowadays, the four most famous kites are the Beijing kite, Tianjin kite , Weifang kite and Nantong kite, of which each has distinctive features. The kite which resembles a swallow is a well-known Beijing style.

★ Hide-and-seek

Hide-and-seek is a traditional game for children, popular around the nation. There are two ways to play: covering a child’s eyes while other kids run around to tease(戏弄) him or, more commonly, participants hide and one child must try to find them.

★ Playing diabolos

A diabolo is always made of wood or bamboo and has empty space in the center. By juggling(边抛边接) the diabolo on the rope, the high-speed spinning diabolos will make a sound like a whistle. Playing diabolos is an interesting folk game, especially popular in North China. Playing diabolos was also included in the first group of national intangible cultural heritage(非物质文化遗产).

21．Why did ancient children often play stone balls in the winter?

A．To practice their feet. B．To warm themselves.

C．To train their skills. D．To relax themselves.

22．Which kites are swallow-shaped?

A．Weifang kites. B．Tianjin kites.

C．Beijing kites. D．Nantong kites.

23．Why does playing diabolos make a sound?

A．Because the diabolo’s center is empty.

B．Because the high-speed spinning diabolo is light.

C．Because the diabolo is equipped with a whistle.

D．Because ropes’ surface moves against the diabolo’s.

B

A new study by Chinese researchers has found differences in the brain activity of men and women addicted(上瘾的)to Internet gaming.

The study says addicted men have lower impulse control compared with women, indicating that men are more likely to become addicted to internet gaming.

Researchers from Renji Hospital, which is connected with Shanghai Jiaotong University, recruited 105 Chinese participants for the study, which had two groups - one with 32 men and 23 women addicted to gaming, and the other with 30 men and 22 women who were not addicted.

They completed a questionnaire for gaming addiction, and reported their gaming history and number of hours playing per week. Researchers also talked with their families to collect the information.

Through FMRI (磁共振扫描), researchers found that men addicted to gaming had lower brain activity in the brain region associated with impulse control, than nonaddicted men. The lower the activity levels, the poorer the impulse control. Addicted women, however, showed no differences compared with the healthy female group.

Researchers also studied the functional connectivity between brain regions, which were lower in men with addiction than in nonaddicted men, but showed no differences in the female groups.

Although there are some limitations, the findings suggest that activity levels displayed in the brain region could be biomarkers to evaluate the behavioral inhibitions of gaming-addicted men, they said.

Gaming disorder was listed as a mental disorder by the World Health Organization earlier this year. People with the disorder have impaired control over gaming and give it increased priority in their lives－to the extent that gaming takes precedence over other life interests and daily activities.

24．By FMRI scanning, researchers found            .

A．addicted men have higher brain activities

B．addicted women have lower impulse control

C．addicted men are the same with nonaddicted ones

D．addicted women have no difference with nonaddicted ones

25．In the last paragraph, the author wants to show            .

A．gaming disorder will influence our daily life

B．gaming disorder will play an active part in our activities

C．gaming disorder is not difficult to control

D．gaming disorder will become a part of our life

26．What can we learn from the passage?

A．Researchers from Renji Hospital did the research independently.

B．53 men took part in the research.

C．Gaming disorder does harm to our lives.

D．The research has solved the problem completely.

27．What is the main purpose of the passage?

A．To explain the beat way of getting rid of the Internet game addiction.

B．To show the latest brain research on differences between addicted men and women.

C．To describe internet gaming’s harmful effects on men and women.

D．To advise on the special use of internet gaming to men and women.

C

Art and science may seem like opposite things. One means the creative flow of ideas, and the other means cold, hard data—some people believe. In fact, the two have much in common. Now, a study finds art can help students remember better what they learned in science class.

Mariale Hardiman, an education specialist at Johns Hopkins University, noticed that students who used art in the classroom listened more carefully. They might ask more questions. They might volunteer more ideas. What's more, students seemed to remember more of what they had been taught when their science lessons had involved（涉及）art. To prove that, Hardiman teamed up with some researchers and six local schools.

In the experiment, the researchers worked with teachers in 16 fifth-grade classrooms. They provided traditional science lessons and art-focused ones. In a traditional science class, for example, students might read aloud from a book. In the art-focused one, they might sing the information instead.

The team randomly assigned（随机分配）each of the 350 students to either a traditional science classroom or an art-focused one. Students then learned science using that way for the whole unit—about three weeks. When they changed to a new topic, they also changed to the other type of class. This way, each student had both an art-focused class and a traditional one. Every unit was taught in both ways, to different groups of students. This enabled the researchers to see how students did in both types of classes.

The team found that students who started off in traditional classes performed better after they moved into an art-focused class. But those who started in an art-focused class did well even when they went back to a traditional science class. These students appeared to use some of the art techniques（技巧）after going back to a traditional class. Classroom teachers reported that many students continued to sing the songs that they learned after finishing the unit. "The more we hear something, the more we retain it," Hardiman says. "It suggests that the arts may help students apply creative ways of learning on their own."

28．Why did Mariale Hardiman do the study?

A．To prove the importance of art at school.

B．To see if art might improve science learning.

C．To find a way to help her students learn better.

D．To know how to encourage students to ask questions.

29．What were the students required to do in the experiment?

A．Learn three units in total.

B．Take two types of classes.

C．Learn two topics for three weeks.

D．Choose what they'd like to learn.

30．What does the underlined word "retain" in the last paragraph mean?

A．Finish. B．Express.

C．Improve. D．Memorize.

31．What is the text mainly about?

A．Art helps students develop creativity.

B．Art-focused classes interest students a lot

C．Art can make science easier to remember.

D．Art has something in common with science.

第六部分  书面表达

Dear fellow students,

It worries me a lot to notice that lack of self-care brought by academic pressure has had a great influence on the health of some students.Good health is known as the best wealth. It is the basis of efficient studies and other activities. Therefore, I strongly advocate the idea of “Manage our own health”. To achieve the goal, let’s learn to strike a balance between study and rest by means of healthy eating, adequate rest and regular physical activities. Besides, mental wellbeing cannot be neglected. Only when physical health combined with mental wellbeing is guaranteed, can we ensure better academic performance, enjoying a really satisfying school life.Every small step counts! However busy we are, remember to care for ourselves.
