It happened while he was driving his garbage truck through wealthier neighborhoods at night and seeing deserted books. It sparked his desire to start rescuing books from the garbage. He took home between 50 and 60 books every morning after his nine-hour shift. Eventually, he turned his book collection into a community library.Colombia's capital city of Bogota has 13 million residents and 19 public libraries. However, these libraries tend to be far away from where rural and poorer communities live. The option of buying new books is non-existent for families struggling to make ends meet. Having access to a library of books and being taken away to another world while immersed in a book is a luxury for the kids who visit Gutierrez?s library.Gutierrez grew up poor, and his family could not afford to educate him beyond primary school. Nevertheless, his mother was a keen reader and read stories to him every night. Her love for books left a deep impression on Gutierrez, who never let a lack of formal education stop him from reading classics by the likes of Victor Hugo, Mario Vargas Llosa and Gabriel Garcia Marquez.Today, his community library, called “The Strength of Words", occupies most of his home? and is piled from floor to ceiling with fiction and non-fiction titles. Everything from school textbooks to story books can be found in his collection of more than 20,000 books!The Strength of Words library opens every weekend. It is not just school-going children who are enjoying the benefits of The Strength of Words library. Adults are also welcome to expand their horizons and develop new skills to build a better life for themselves.Despite having done so much for his community, Gutierrez is not yet content to call it a day. He continues to search through bins for reading material and has even travelled to book fairs in Mexico and Chile to sell his idea of building library from unwanted books.24.What inspired Gutierrez to build the community library?A.The dilemma he faced on the night shift.B.The hobby he has started since childhood.C.Famous novelists he liked very much.D.Abandoned books he came across at work.25.What can we learn about GutierrezJs mother?A.She was born into a poor family.B.She bought Gutierrez many books.C.She influenced Gutierrez greatly.D.She enjoyed reading Hugo's works.26.What does the underlined phrase “call it a day" in the last paragraph mean?A.Take the time.                       B. Stop the work.C. Make a change.                       D. Receive a reward.27.What does Gutierrez?s story tell us?A.A book holds a house of gold.B.Constant dropping wears the stone.C.Good things come to those who wait.D.One man's trash is another man's treasure.CMaybe you've wondered what you would hear if plants could speak. A stream of gossip from the roses? Wise whispering from the branches of an old tree? A faint, high-pitched cry of terror when your older brother takes out the lawn mower（割草机）？Ariel Novoplansky, an ecologist in Israel, is studying how plants communicate with each other. To listen in, he set up a kind of telephone game among plants in his lab. Experiment used pea plants standing in rows of containers. The center plant in each row was the target： Scientists would stress out that plant and see whether the plants on either side of it picked up any alarm signals.The pea plants had been grown with two main roots. On one side of the stressed plant,each plant had one root in its own pot and the other reaching into a neighbor's pot. The central plant connected to its closest neighbor, which connected to another neighbor, and so on down the line. On the other side of the stressed plant, all the plants kept their roots in their own pots unconnected to their neighbors. Then the scientists dried up the soil of the central target plant, creating a drought.Within 15 minutes, the dried-out plant reacted the same way it would in nature： it had closed up the tiny pores（气孔）on its leaves to save water. What's amazing is that the central plant's closest neighbor with connected roots had also closed up its leaf pores. And after an hour, the message had traveled down the whole row of connected plants. On the other side of the pea chain, where the plants' roots weren't connected, all their pores stayed open. This means the warning signal traveled from the stressed plant's roots through the soil.Dried-out roots aren't the only talkative plant parts scientists have discovered. When sugar maple trees are damaged, they send signals through the air telling their neighbors to produce bad-tasting chemicals. When caterpillars chew on corn leaves, nearby corn plants also make more self-defense molecules（分子）.The plants around us may not be speaking with any volume, but they are saying plenty.28.What is the purpose of paragraph 1?A.To make a prediction.                  B. To raise a discussion.C. To develop a theory.                  D. To introduce a research.29.How did Novoplansky conduct his experiment?A.By stressing out the target plant.B.By sending alarming signals to plants.C.By growing pea plants with different roots.D.By drying out the soil of the plants in rows.30.What do we know about the pea plants according to the text?A.They are able to communicate with the gardeners.B.They send warning signals to others through the air.C.They close up their leaf pores as a stress reaction.D.They are the most talkative plants found by scientists.31.Where is this text probably taken from?A. A news report.                      B. A science journal.C. A gardening guide.                  D. A business magazine.DStrawberry shortcake. Strawberry mochi. Strawberries a la mode. These may sound like springtime treats. But in Japan, the strawberry crop peaks in wintertime－a freezing season of superb berries. To recreate an artificial spring in the winter months, farmers grow their out- of-season delicacies in huge greenhouses heated with giant, gas-consuming heaters.The swing has made strawberry farming much more energy intensive. "We looked at all aspects, including transport, or what it takes to produce fertilizer－even then, heating had the biggest footprint," said Naoki Yoshikawa, a researcher, who led the produce emissions study.Examples like these complicate the idea of eating locally, namely the idea embraced by some environmentally conscious shoppers of buying food that was produced relatively close by. They did this in part to cut down on the fuel and pollution associated with transportation. However, according to She lie Miller, a professor at the University of Michigan, transportation of food often has less climate impact than the way it is produced. "It's ideal if you can eat both in-season, and locally," she said, “so your food is produced without having to add major energy consumption. ”In Japan, the energy required to grow strawberries in winter hasn't proven to be just a climate burden. It has also made strawberry production expensive, particularly as fuel costs have risen, hurting farmers5 bottom lines. Research and development of berry varieties, as well as fancy branding, has helped ease some of those pressures. Strawberry varieties in Japan are now sold with fancy names like Beni Hoppe （"red cheeks,?） and Bijin Hime beautiful princess"）, helping farmers fetch higher prices. The most picture-perfect ones have even sold hundreds of dollars to be given as special gifts.Tochigi, north of Tokyo, has been developing a new variety of strawberry called Tochiaika, which produces a higher yield from the same inputs, making growing them more energy-efficient. Researchers in Sendai have been exploring ways to employ solar power to keep the temperature inside strawberry greenhouses warm. Strawberry farmer Ms. Yoshimura is working to gain local recognition for her “unheated" strawberries. "It would be nice,” she said, "if we could just make strawberries when it's natural to."32.What makes the strawberry crop peak in winter?A. Solar power.                       B. Low temperature.C. Industrial heating.                   D. Global warming.33.What might Miller think of some shoppers5 eco-friendly attempt?A. It's useless.                           B. It's insufficient.C. It's ideal.                           D. It's harmful.34.How does the Japan strawberry industry respond to the rising production cost?A.It reduces investment in branding.B.It raises the prices of strawberries.C.It adjusts the strawberry growing season.D.It slows down the development of varieties.35. What is the last paragraph mainly about?A.Benefits from organic farming.B.New studies of strawberry varieties.C.Attitudes towards energy consumption.D.Efforts to conserve energy in production.第二节 （共5小题;每小题2. 5分，满分12. 5分）阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余 选项。We all know there's good cholesterol （胆固醇）and bad cholesterol.__36__A better understanding of them will give us health benefits.Good fat is medically known as “brown fat", typically found in the neck and shoulders of newborns. It makes up about 5 percent of an infant's total body mass. __37__By age six, we have less than 5 percent of the brown fat we were born with. Researchers now believe that some people maintain brown fat deposits into adulthood. As a "good" kind, it is metabolically （新陈代谢地）efficient and actually burns excess energy to generate heat.__38__It is a way for your body to store excess energy that accumulates when you consume more calories than you use. It is widely distributed throughout the body. And it doesn5t use much energy, is hard to burn off, accumulates, and causes other health problems.The fat we gain over time is almost all white fat. The increasing level of white fat is one of the major causes of shortened life spans and chronic diseases. Thus, increasing the level of brown fat makes sense.Some studies suggest that taking a cold shower or an ice bath could activate brown fat to help your body burn more calories. Researchers have also found methods that may help people gain brown fat without the need for cold.__39__As brown fat is rich in iron, choosing iron supplements or food items rich in iron can keep your fat cells healthy. Nutrition is vital for your health, especially if you want to increase brown fat production.Though it is helpful to increase brown fat, some scientists think they will learn how to keep stores of brown fat as large and active throughout adulthood as its stores are in infancy.__40__.A.You can build fat from the food you eat.B.We lose most of our brown fat as we age.C.It turns out there's good and bad fat, too.D.It's wise to distinguish good fat from bad fat.E.But white fat is considered to do the opposite.F.These methods oppose taking in extra calories.G.The goal is to maintain brown fat rather than recreate it.第三部分 语言运用（共两节，满分30分） 第一节 （共15小题;每小题1分，满分15分）阅读下面短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。Post-It Notes and poster board seem like nothing more than standard school supplies.__41__, in Erin Castillo's hands, they are a powerful mental health tool transforming the lives of her students.Here's how it__42__: About once a week, the California special education high school teacher hangs up the "mental health check-in board”.

Hearing this, anxiety crawled over my body as the last thing I would do was speaking in front of the entire class! I couldn't help complaining to my best friend Jenny.“You are the chief violinist in our school orchestra, aren't you?" she said. "So what's the point of being afraid of speaking to a few our own classmates since you can handle acting in front of a large audience?"Her point made sense, but being in a performance meant being part of a team. I shook my head. Besides, there were so many people I was grateful to, and choosing just one seemed difficult. Even if I could pick someone, I wouldn't know how to say thank you. And even if I figured out what to say, I was sure I'd stumble（结巴地说）on my words when speaking aloud! Standing there, with everyone5s eyes on me, I would feel the spot light was wholly on me, and there would be no place for me to hide! "Oh no!" I covered my face with my hands and said, “I can't do it, just can't!"Real friends, the ones who know you well, don't just do exactly what you ask. Jenny, always supportive and helpful, wrote something on a piece of paper and gently removed my hands from my face. She had drawn a cute cat with the word “CALM” written below it.“Nice meeting you； I am the 6everything will be fine' cat," Jenny laughed and sounded exactly like a cat. Pretending to listen to the cat, she asked, “Well, kitty, you think my friend should come to my house tomorrow, so we can prepare our speeches together I laughed out loud and relaxed a lot. I have to say Jenny was there for me, always!注意：1.续写词数应为150左右；2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。The next day, I went to Jenny's house.       Before the speech, however, I changed my mind and wrote “Jenny" on the blackboard.
