This passage is most probably from ______________.A. a travel magazine B. a geography textbook C. an education report D. an agency's website BKyle Cassidy and three other members of the Annenberg Running Group were stretching on the grounds of the University of Pennsylvania, waiting for a few slow members to start. The Penn colleagues and other community members meet three days a week for a roughly 30-minute jog and an occasional lecture. It’s not your normal exercise chatter—during some runs, one of them delivers a talk; the topics range from the brain to Bitcoin(比特币).But on this day last January, it would not be their normal run. The first sign was the man who ran past them very fast. “Probably running a 7:15 pace (per mile),” Cassidy thought admiringly.Cassidy discovered why the man was so fast at running when another man ran by, yelling, “Help! He took my phone!”Hearing that, the group did what running clubs do: They ran, chasing the suspect down the streets until he quickly hid in a construction site. The runners split up. Cassidy ran around to the far side of the site to cut the thief off while the others wandered the neighborhood hoping he had abandoned the stolen phone in a backyard.No luck. Then they asked the residents whether they'd seen the guy. When they knocked on the door of one house, they were in for a surprise. They didn’t know the thief had already come out of the construction site and was hiding behind a bush by that very house. As the owner opened the door, the suspect suddenly rushed out from behind the bush and right into the arms of the campus police, who had joined the chase shortly behind the runners.The members of this running group are not passionate(狂热的) runners. But they do understand the benefit of a little exercise. “Running is typically a useless sport where you turn fat cells into heat,” Cassidy said. “But occasionally it can be useful, and here was one of those opportunities.”24. What does the running group do at times while exercising?A. Play with their smartphones. B. Talk nonsense. C. Help search for lost things. D. Share ideas. 25. How did Cassidy feel right after the thief ran past him?A Confused B. Frightened C. Impressed D. Motivated26. What does the underlined phrase “split up” refer to?A. gave up. B. got separated. C. stayed up. D. ran away.27. What message can we get from the story?A. Exercising can be socially beneficial. B. It's very important to keep fit.C. Whatever you do, you should do your best. D. Teamwork is more important than individual skills. C Yoga is an ancient physical and spiritual practice originating in India. The word "yoga" comes from Sanskrit(梵文) and means to join or to unite, symbolizing the union of body and mind. Today it is practiced in various forms around the world and continues to grow in popularity. Recognizing its universal appeal, the United Nations declared 21 June as the International Day of Yoga in 2014 to raise awareness worldwide of the many benefits of practicing yoga. Yoga is an invaluable gift from an ancient tradition. It's not just about exercise but a way to discover the sense of oneness with yourself, nature and the world. There is no written record of who invented yoga. Yoga practitioners(从业者) passed down the principles to their students. The earliest written record of yoga is generally believed to have been written by Patanjali, an Indian master who lived somewhere between 2 000 and 2 500 years ago. Various yoga types give you multiple choices. Hatha yoga is the most widely practiced type and is excellent for beginners. It is gentle with slow and smooth movements. Kundalini yoga combines a singing session besides body and mental control. Bikram yoga is practiced in a heated room. It is to loosen muscles and to sweat to clean the body and remove symptoms of disease and pain. Ashtanga yoga is taught as a difficult workout where you move quickly from one gesture to another to build strength and patience. In recent years, the World Health Organization has urged countries to help their citizens reduce physical inactivity, which is among the top ten leading causes of death worldwide, and a key risk factor for non-communicable diseases, such as cancer and diabetes. Yoga is a proper exercise. It is known for its ability to ease stress and anxiety. It may also help reduce several risk factors for heart diseases and promote a better sleep.28.Why did the United Nations set the International Day of Yoga? A.To promote the research into Sanskrit. B.To help people know more about India. C. To give a declaration on cultural diversity. D. To popularize Yoga practice worldwide. 29.What is Paragraph 2 mainly about? A. The history of yoga. B. The principles of yoga.C.The benefits of yoga. D.An Indian yoga master. 30.What will you choose if you're looking for a challenging exercise? A.Hatha yoga. B.Ashtanga yoga. C.Bikram yoga. D.Kundalini yoga. 31.What can we infer from the last paragraph? A.Physical inactivity causes deadly diseases. B.Yoga can help prevent communicable diseases. C. Yoga can be a cure for many kinds of diseases. D. Little or no exercise puts people’s health at risk.DWe all know cameras. But have you heard of Google’s new camera? It is a small, smart device, called Clips. It comes with a case that has a clip (夹子), but it’s not designed to be worn on your clothing. Most interestingly, it uses artificial intelligence to take photography out of your hands so it can capture moments on its own.This roughly 2-inch by 2-inch camera, with a three-hour battery life and Gorilla Glass for toughness, is intended for candid moments, like when a child does something cute that may happen too quickly for you to pull out your smart phone.Onboard the Clips device, it uses machine learning algorithms (计算程序) to help capture scenes. Those algorithms include face recognition. “Once it learns that there’s a face you see frequently, it’ll try to get nice photos of those faces,” said Juston Payne, the device’s product manager. And they also want it to recognize facial expressions, which involved “training it to know what happiness looks like”. The Google team also trained it to recognize what not to shoot—like when a child’s hand is over the lens, or if it is tossed in a dark purse.The only way to see the images is by connecting the camera with your phone, as it has no screen for viewing or editing.Did people think it was strange? Yes, Payne admitted. But they said they addressed that by making it obvious what it is. A green light on the front signals that the device is on. Besides, unlike a camera meant to monitor your home, it is not connected to the Internet.“This product is only possible because of the way that technology has advanced,” Payne said. It was only in the past year or so that they could squeeze the technology down into a device this size. Going forward, we’re likely to get more assistance from the artificial intelligence packed into our apps and gadgets.32. What does the underlined word “candid” in Paragraph 2 probably mean?A. Touching B. Brief. C. Unforgettable D. Embarrassing.33. What is the most outstanding feature of Clips?A. It is equipped with tough glass B. It enables easy Internet access.C. It can be worn on your clothing D. It allows of hands-free photography.34. What makes Clips a reality according to Juston Payne?A. The popularity of the Internet B. The rise of the smart phone industry.C. The advance in technology D. The reduction in the price of lens.35. What is the best title for the text?A. A New Digital Camera from Google B. New Gadgets in the Age of AppsC. Artificial Intelligence in Everyday Life D. An Alternative Way to Photograph第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10 分） 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 The climate we live in affects many areas of our lives. 36 A warmer world would be a sicker world. Climate researchers predict that the world climate will become warmer. High temperatures in summer is becoming more frequent and very cold winters more rare. With winters becoming warmer, there are likely to be up to 20, 000 fewer cold-related deaths. However, there is a danger that bacteria would no longer die off seasonally during the cold period. 37 More heat waves may increase the number of hot-weather related deaths by up to 2, 800. They could cause an extra 5,000 deaths a year from skin cancer and may cause an increase of up to 2, 000 cases of eye diseases. 38 Higher average global temperatures mean that diseases, or their carriers, may be able to move to areas that were too cold for them to survive at an earlier time. It's possible that a warm type of malaria(疟疾) will appear in some parts of the world and be a seasonal danger for up to four months each year. 39 They will cause damage to our homes, food, and water supplies and then affect our health. 40 Those living in poor and developing countries are going to be less able to adapt to changes. Health effects are not likely to be limited to the human population, and wildlife would also be seriously affected.A. It means that diseases may spread more widely.B. Therefore, climate changes for the same period.C. It's no secret that human activity is changing the climate.D. Climate change is likely to have different effects on the world population.E. Globally, there are likely to be more floods, more droughts, and more storms.F. Warmer summers may cause up to 10,000 extra cases of food poisoning (中毒) each year.G. The food we eat, the water we drink, and our homes are all dependent upon our climate and weather. 第三部分 英语知识运用（共两节，满分45分）第一节 完形填空（共20小题；每小题1.5分，满分30分）阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。I had no idea she would be there.

He took my phone!”Hearing that, the group did what running clubs do: They ran, chasing the suspect down the streets until he quickly hid in a construction site. The runners split up. Cassidy ran around to the far side of the site to cut the thief off while the others wandered the neighborhood hoping he had abandoned the stolen phone in a backyard.No luck. Then they asked the residents whether they'd seen the guy. When they knocked on the door of one house, they were in for a surprise. They didn’t know the thief had already come out of the construction site and was hiding behind a bush by that very house. As the owner opened the door, the suspect suddenly rushed out from behind the bush and right into the arms of the campus police, who had joined the chase shortly behind the runners.The members of this running group are not passionate(狂热的) runners. But they do understand the benefit of a little exercise. “Running is typically a useless sport where you turn fat cells into heat,” Cassidy said. “But occasionally it can be useful, and here was one of those opportunities.”24. What does the running group do at times while exercising?A. Play with their smartphones. B. Talk nonsense. C. Help search for lost things. D. Share ideas. 25. How did Cassidy feel right after the thief ran past him?A Confused B. Frightened C. Impressed D. Motivated26. What does the underlined phrase “split up” refer to?A. gave up. B. got separated. C. stayed up. D. ran away.27. What message can we get from the story?A. Exercising can be socially beneficial. B. It's very important to keep fit.C. Whatever you do, you should do your best. D. Teamwork is more important than individual skills. C Yoga is an ancient physical and spiritual practice originating in India. The word "yoga" comes from Sanskrit(梵文) and means to join or to unite, symbolizing the union of body and mind. Today it is practiced in various forms around the world and continues to grow in popularity. Recognizing its universal appeal, the United Nations declared 21 June as the International Day of Yoga in 2014 to raise awareness worldwide of the many benefits of practicing yoga. Yoga is an invaluable gift from an ancient tradition. It's not just about exercise but a way to discover the sense of oneness with yourself, nature and the world. There is no written record of who invented yoga. Yoga practitioners(从业者) passed down the principles to their students. The earliest written record of yoga is generally believed to have been written by Patanjali, an Indian master who lived somewhere between 2 000 and 2 500 years ago. Various yoga types give you multiple choices. Hatha yoga is the most widely practiced type and is excellent for beginners. It is gentle with slow and smooth movements. Kundalini yoga combines a singing session besides body and mental control. Bikram yoga is practiced in a heated room. It is to loosen muscles and to sweat to clean the body and remove symptoms of disease and pain. Ashtanga yoga is taught as a difficult workout where you move quickly from one gesture to another to build strength and patience. In recent years, the World Health Organization has urged countries to help their citizens reduce physical inactivity, which is among the top ten leading causes of death worldwide, and a key risk factor for non-communicable diseases, such as cancer and diabetes. Yoga is a proper exercise. It is known for its ability to ease stress and anxiety. It may also help reduce several risk factors for heart diseases and promote a better sleep.28.Why did the United Nations set the International Day of Yoga? A.To promote the research into Sanskrit. B.To help people know more about India. C. To give a declaration on cultural diversity. D. To popularize Yoga practice worldwide. 29.What is Paragraph 2 mainly about? A. The history of yoga. B. The principles of yoga.C.The benefits of yoga. D.An Indian yoga master. 30.What will you choose if you're looking for a challenging exercise? A.Hatha yoga. B.Ashtanga yoga. C.Bikram yoga. D.Kundalini yoga. 31.What can we infer from the last paragraph? A.Physical inactivity causes deadly diseases. B.Yoga can help prevent communicable diseases. C. Yoga can be a cure for many kinds of diseases. D. Little or no exercise puts people’s health at risk.DWe all know cameras. But have you heard of Google’s new camera? It is a small, smart device, called Clips. It comes with a case that has a clip (夹子), but it’s not designed to be worn on your clothing. Most interestingly, it uses artificial intelligence to take photography out of your hands so it can capture moments on its own.This roughly 2-inch by 2-inch camera, with a three-hour battery life and Gorilla Glass for toughness, is intended for candid moments, like when a child does something cute that may happen too quickly for you to pull out your smart phone.Onboard the Clips device, it uses machine learning algorithms (计算程序) to help capture scenes. Those algorithms include face recognition. “Once it learns that there’s a face you see frequently, it’ll try to get nice photos of those faces,” said Juston Payne, the device’s product manager. And they also want it to recognize facial expressions, which involved “training it to know what happiness looks like”. The Google team also trained it to recognize what not to shoot—like when a child’s hand is over the lens, or if it is tossed in a dark purse.The only way to see the images is by connecting the camera with your phone, as it has no screen for viewing or editing.Did people think it was strange? Yes, Payne admitted. But they said they addressed that by making it obvious what it is. A green light on the front signals that the device is on. Besides, unlike a camera meant to monitor your home, it is not connected to the Internet.“This product is only possible because of the way that technology has advanced,” Payne said. It was only in the past year or so that they could squeeze the technology down into a device this size. Going forward, we’re likely to get more assistance from the artificial intelligence packed into our apps and gadgets.32. What does the underlined word “candid” in Paragraph 2 probably mean?A. Touching B. Brief. C. Unforgettable D. Embarrassing.33. What is the most outstanding feature of Clips?A. It is equipped with tough glass B. It enables easy Internet access.C. It can be worn on your clothing D. It allows of hands-free photography.34. What makes Clips a reality according to Juston Payne?A. The popularity of the Internet B. The rise of the smart phone industry.C. The advance in technology D. The reduction in the price of lens.35. What is the best title for the text?A. A New Digital Camera from Google B. New Gadgets in the Age of AppsC. Artificial Intelligence in Everyday Life D. An Alternative Way to Photograph第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10 分） 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 The climate we live in affects many areas of our lives. 36 A warmer world would be a sicker world. Climate researchers predict that the world climate will become warmer. High temperatures in summer is becoming more frequent and very cold winters more rare. With winters becoming warmer, there are likely to be up to 20, 000 fewer cold-related deaths. However, there is a danger that bacteria would no longer die off seasonally during the cold period. 37 More heat waves may increase the number of hot-weather related deaths by up to 2, 800. They could cause an extra 5,000 deaths a year from skin cancer and may cause an increase of up to 2, 000 cases of eye diseases. 38 Higher average global temperatures mean that diseases, or their carriers, may be able to move to areas that were too cold for them to survive at an earlier time. It's possible that a warm type of malaria(疟疾) will appear in some parts of the world and be a seasonal danger for up to four months each year. 39 They will cause damage to our homes, food, and water supplies and then affect our health. 40 Those living in poor and developing countries are going to be less able to adapt to changes. Health effects are not likely to be limited to the human population, and wildlife would also be seriously affected.A. It means that diseases may spread more widely.B. Therefore, climate changes for the same period.C. It's no secret that human activity is changing the climate.D. Climate change is likely to have different effects on the world population.E. Globally, there are likely to be more floods, more droughts, and more storms.F. Warmer summers may cause up to 10,000 extra cases of food poisoning (中毒) each year.G. The food we eat, the water we drink, and our homes are all dependent upon our climate and weather. 第三部分 英语知识运用（共两节，满分45分）第一节 完形填空（共20小题；每小题1.5分，满分30分）阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。I had no idea she would be there.
