In 1973,when Melissa Greene was in 6t grade, her parents bought the first apartment on Hutchinson Island on the southeastern Atlantic cast. The first time she and her siblings ran down to the wild shore, they were shocked by the seashells there. Every tide left a wrack line of seashells. Today, on the same stretch of beach, she rarely finds the large, undamaged shells that were common in her childhood. “It's a shocking difference," she says,“  what you don't see any more are the deep piles of whole shells, quarter-sized and above, and the largest shells that we saw for years."

Among the most admirable natural objects throughout human history, seashells contain both the surprise and wonder still promised by a trip to the beach and the profound changes underway on our coasts. Some of the largest and best-known marine mollusks（软体动物）have declined under fishing pressure. They are also harmed by rising ocean temperatures and acidifying waters and by other pollution. They can be reduced by the severe erosion-a persistent problem on Hutchinson Island.

With beaches seeing record tourism numbers, more people can mean fewer shells. “It is not as much individual collecting as the many ramifications of massive tourism, “says the paleo-biologist Michal Kowalewski at the Florida Museum of Natural History."  Mass tourism means more boats, more beach maintenance, more machinery, all contributing to changes in shorelines."

Over twenty years ago, Sanibel became the first city in the U.S. to ban the practice of collecting and killing mollusks for their shells. Delaware's state parks are among increasing numbers of state and national parks taking so-called low-impact beachcombing a step further: Asking visitors to leave empty shells alone, too. At Delaware Seashore State Park, signs advise visitors to “Leave shells where they lay or snap a photo of a marine critter in the sand. After all, the point of enjoying nature is because it is in a natural state".

24.Why is the story of Melissa Greene mentioned in the first paragraph?

A.To introduce readers to an Atlantic coast.

B. To share Melissa's attitude towards shells.

C.To show an ocean village's development.

D.To lead in the topic of seashells' disappearance.

25.How does the author state the reasons for the great decline of mollusks?

A. By comparing different conclusions.

B.By collecting the supporting data.

C.By listing the related factors.

D.By quoting the opinions of experts.

26.What does the underlined word ramifications in paragraph 3 mean?

A.Consequences.

B.Industries.

C.Branches

D.Benefits..

27.What is the last paragraph mainly about?

A. The common phenomenon of shell collecting.

B.Different measures taken to protect the seashells.

C.Future anticipation of seashells' condition.

D.The effectiveness of bans on seashells' development.

C

Humans have two different ages. There is chronological age（时序年龄），which measures how much time a person has spent on Earth, and then there is biological age, referring to how old a person seems. Many lifestyle factors like diet, exercise and psychological state can impact someone's biological age.

A new study from Deep Longevity, the Chinese University of Hong Kong and Stanford University found that feelings that cause poor mental health like sadness, loneliness and general unhappiness add an extra 1.65 years to a person's biological age. Meanwhile, smoking can add up to 1.25 years and suffering from restless sleep can add 0.44 years to a person's biological age, according to the study.

As part of the study, researchers said they came up with a new “aging clock" based on data from 4,846 Chinese adults in 2015 as part of the China Health and Retirement Longitudinal Study (CHARLS).

The data included 16 blood biomarkers like cholesterol and glucose levels as well as other health information like blood pressure, body mass index, lung function and sex.

Researchers compared the chronological age of CHARLS participants with the ages predicted by their new “aging clock."  The results found that the new age was roughly 5.6 years older than the CHARLS participants' actual ages. The team also found that smokers and those with a history of stroke, liver or lung disease were predicted to be older than the remaining 4,451 healthy adults in the cohort.

“Chronological age isn't how old we really are," said Professor David Sinclair, co-director of the Paul F.Glenn Center for the Biology of Aging at Harvard Medical School. We all age biologically at different rates according to our genes, what we eat, and how much we exercise. Biological age is what determines our health and ultimately our lifespan. Biological age is a number of candles we really should be blowing out. In the future, with advances in our ability to control biological age, we may have even fewer candles on our cake than the previous one."

28.Which of the following has the biggest negative effect on our biological age?

A. Smoking.

B. Poor sleep.

C. Being married.

D. Feeling lonely.

29. What's Professor David Sinclair's attitude to the future of human's biological age?

A.Concerned.

B.Indifferent.

C.Optimistic.

D.Ambiguous.

30.Where can the text be found?

A.In a novel.

B.In a health magazine.

C. In a biography.

D. In a travel brochure.

31.Which can be a suitable title for the text?

A.What Decides a Person's Chronological Age.

B.What Adds Years to a Person's Biological Age.

C.Chronological Age-How Old Are You Really?

D.Biological Age-You May Be Older than You Are.

D

A robot created at Stanford University in California is diving down to shipwreck and sunken（沉没的）planes in a way that humans can’t do .Known as OceanoNek， the robot allows its operators to feel like they're underwater explorers,  too.

OceanOneK is similar to a human diver from the front, with arms and hands and eyes that have 3D vision, capturing the underwater world in full color. The back of the robot has computers and eight multi-directional thrusters（推进器）that help it carefully explore the sites of fragile sunken ships. When an operator at the ocean's surface uses controls to direct OceanOneK,  the robot's touch-based feedback system causes the person to feel the water＇s resistance as well as the forms of artifacts（人工制品）.

OceanOneK's realistic sight and touch capabilities are enough to make people feel like they're diving down to the depths-without the dangers or immense underwater pressure a human diver would experience.

The idea for OceanOneK came from a desire to study coral reefs in the Red Sea at depths beyond the normal range for divers. While OceanOneK was designed to reach maximum depths of 656 feet, researchers had a new goal: 1 kilometer, hence the new name for OceanOneK.

The researchers changed the robot＇s body by using special foam（泡沫）to increase buoyancy （浮力）and fight the pressures of 1,000 meters-more than 100 times what humans experience at sea level. OceanOneK also got two new types of hands and increased arm and head motion.

During OceanOneK's deep dive in February, team members discovered the robot couldn't rise when they stopped for a thruster check. Floatation on the communications and power line had collapsed, causing the line to pile on the top of the robot.

They were able to pull the loose parts, and OceanOnek's going down was a success. It dropped off a memorial marker on the seabed that reads, “A robot's first touch of the deep seafloor-A vast new world for humans to explore."

Khatib, a professor, called the experience an "incredible journey"  ."This is the first time that a robot has been capable of going to such a depth, interacting with the environment, and permitting the human operator to feel that environment,” he said.

32. What can we know about OceanOnek?

A.It works underwater with remote control.

B. It works underwater like a human diver.

C. It can repair fragile sunken ships underwater.

D. It can make human divers work better underwater.

33.Where does the idea for OceanOnek originate from?

A.The failing experience of previous experiments.

B.The eager desire of deep sea exploration.

C.The academic research into treasures from shipwrecks.

D.The inspiration from coral reefs in deep oceans.

34.What problem did the researchers meet during OceanOnek's deep dive in February?

A.Failure to go up normally.

C.Floatation with sea current.

B.Loss of touch with the operators.

D.Collapse of a thruster at the seafloor.

35.What's the text mainly about?

A.Robots help people become ocean explorer.

B.Robots explore shipwrecks on the ocean bottom.

C.Robots search the ocean floor for sunken treasures.

D.Robots dive into the deep ocean to locate minerals.

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，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑，选项中有两项为多余选项。

When high school students spend time memorizing and reciting a poem, they develop confidence by engaging deeply with language. Here are my five Cs-things I've observed from several years of teaching students through Poetry Out Loud, from selecting a poem to performing at the state competition.

Choice． 36Students learn how to search for poems，and they have complete discretion（判断力）over the poem they will perform. Students often gravitate（被吸引）to poems that fit their reading level and also match a personal interest or philosophy, which is great. But there are also lots of unexpected mismatches that end up stretching students' skills in ways a teacher could not work out.

Concrete learning task. Learning just one poem well gives students a finite and concentrated experience with language. 37 I've seen students with all manner of challenges get up and do something they thought was impossible, in large part because it involves a single, repeated exercise.

Continuing learning. Students learn a poem that will likely stay with them for years, if not forever. Poems contain mysteries and complexities that reveal themselves slowly- and sometimes even suddenly-over time.38

Confidence. Recitation is the perfect introduction to public speaking skills. All students need to be able to speak effectively in front of others. 39Students learn elements of physical presence, voice, speed, volume, and tone without having to present their own work, which is more frightening for most students.

40 Students are not asked to memorize much anymore, yet many of them take pleasure in the act of repetition and remembering. They like testing themselves and realizing that they can in fact recall lines. For English language learners, many autistic students, and other exceptional learners, reciting poetry is an especially powerful way to understand language and build confidence. For our kids who need small victories, mastering one poem is a welcome relief.

A.Practice memorizing poems.

B.Challenging memory and recall.

C.This is the first step of the exercise.

D.Performing a poem is a bit like acting.

E.Any and every student can learn one poem.

F.Therefore,it is a lasting course to learn poems.

G. As a result, it is beneficial for students to learn poems.

The other day, Dino, our neighbor across the road, saw me in front of our new home in Italy and called out, “Good evening!" His English  ,though 41,is much better than my Italian. “You OK?”  he asked.

He had 42 me before, usually with a good morning or a good evening. Once, seeing him trying to_43 a tall street lamp, I’d held the ladder for him to climb. But that was pretty much it for us: a general air of 44,nothing more.

Here was a fig（无花果）tree，51 ripe figs．Dino picked a few of the fruits，tore one in half， and put one half in his mouth. He handed me the other half and 52 to me to follow suit,  and I did. “Delicious!" I 53.

I once saw a wonderful documentary about Gregory Peck. In it, the older actor travels to Ireland to meet his new grandson. But first, wandering a field, he _54 a fig tree. He picks a fig and eats it with_55 delight. To me, the 56 captures the sweetness of life and how such sweetness is all around us if only we'd 57 to reach out and taste it.
