In Vietnamese, Ngan’s name means “star,” but she wasn’t able to smile brightly because she was born with a cleft(兔唇)condition.
Ngan’s family lives in a small, isolated village in southern Vietnam. Without help, her family would never have been able to afford the reconstructive surgery that would change Ngan’s life and give her a brighter future. But when Ngan’s parents heard that Operation Smile was conducting a surgical mission in Danang, they did everything in their power to take Ngan there for. medical mission. Ngan and her family travelled more than 200 miles for the chance to give her a new smile. Ngan received life-changing surgery on her cleft lip and palate and now, 10 years later, she is a happy, healthy, lively girl—with a smile that shows it.
Before she had surgery, Ngan’s facial condition prevented her social engagement and even her involvement in school. Now, with the confidence she gained from her new smile, Ngan can reach her full potential.
Ngan’s parents say they had given up everything but hope before Operation Smile gave their daughter the chance to see her dreams become a reality. “Many families in our province will abandon their child if a baby is born with a cleft,” Ngan’s father said.
He never wants this to happen, knowing how incredible the transformation is with a free surgery through Operation Smile. Ngan’s parents now actively refer to other families of children born with cleft conditions to Operation Smile.

Oceans hold a lot of mystery, even for people who study them. But it’s no mystery why they’re in trouble. We’ve been using them to hide our waste—such as pouring oil, plastic, and poisonous chemicals into them for decades. We’ve over exploited(剥削)many fish stocks to levels so low that they can no longer be harvested.
Oceans are also a primary source of protein for millions of people worldwide. If we want to continue to enjoy what oceans provide, we need to do everything we can to protect them and the life they support. We should ensure the seafood we eat is sustainable.
Of course, not everyone is lucky enough to be able to catch their own fish, which means having sustainable options at the store is critical. As public and companies awareness about the risks caused by overfishing and uncontrolled sea farming expansion have grown, food tradesmen in Canada have developed sustainable seafood policies and commitments.
Seafood Progress, an online resource, is designed to help provide rewards to tradesmen and information to seafood lovers. It makes it easier for consumers in Canada to find out tradesmen’s policies on sourcing sustainable seafood, whether they’re sticking to those policies and how they’re performing compared to their peers.
But tradesmen must do more to ensure their seafood products are environmentally sustainable and socially responsible. This means expanding the scope of their commitments to cover all seafood products they sell, in all their stores. It also requires continuing to work with suppliers and producers to improve practices and make sure the sustainable seafood supply meets consumer demand.
It’s no mystery that if we want to continue to eat fish, we must do it responsibly. Seafood Progress has invited seafood tradesmen，suppliers and consumers to join in pushing to this goal.
28.What’s the cause of oceans’ being in trouble according to paragraph 1?
A. The ever-changing of the global climate.
B. The mystery that people haven’t studied.
C. The over exploitation and use of the oceans.
D. The continuous decrease of fish stocks.
29. What can Seafood Progress do for consumers?
A. Provide rewards to them.
B. Urge them to stick to policies.
C. Provide them with enough seafood.
D. Let them know about tradesmen’s policies.
30. What does the underlined word “scope” in paragraph 5 mean?
A. Range. B. Chance. C. Risk. D. Rate.
31.How can seafood be sustainable?
A. Through expanding seafood production.
B. By protecting all the tradesmen’s profit.
C. By joint efforts of people involved in seafood.
D. By making policies to control seafood consumers.
D
Plenty of harvests of corn and other major crops rely on a mysterious phenomenon known as hybrid vigor(杂交活力). When highly naturally-born varieties are crossed, their next generations are taller, hardier, and bear more grain. Researchers report that this vigor is somehow influenced by microbes(微生物) in the soil, perhaps through a plant’s immune system.
Charles Darwin was one of the first researchers to describe hybrid vigor. In the early 20thcentury, biologists began to apply this effect to agriculture by creating naturally-born parent plants that produced hybrid seeds. By the 1940s, almost every farmer in the United States was planting hybrid corn，and the harvests multiplied.
Biologists have proposed several theories about the cause of hybrid vigor，but no definitive explanation has emerged.
Maggie Wagner, plant biologist at the University of Kansas, and her colleagues wondered whether microbes might be involved. Last year, Wagner and her colleagues found an interesting clue in a field study. They discovered that the leaves and roots of hybrid corn had microbial communities that are different from those living on naturally-born varieties of corn. “Something about being a hybrid makes a plant interact differently with microbes,” Wagner says. It could be that the naturally-born corn’s immune systems react more actively to beneficial microbes, compromising their growth. Alternatively, hybrid plants may be better able to defend against weak pathogens(病原体)in the soil.
Wagner says the finding highlights the need for plant growers to match the hybrid crops to the microbial communities with which they live. The findings help scientist realize the im-portance of understanding the role of soil microbes in making agriculture more productive and sustainable, “This holds great promise.”
32. How did people use the effect of hybrid vigor in agriculture?
A. By producing naturally-born parent plants that bore hybrid seeds.
B. By creating naturally-born parent lines that produced hybrid vigor.
C. By providing more microbes communities that could produce more seeds.
D. By looking for hybrid parent plants in the field that produced hybrid seeds.
33. What can we know from paragraph 4?
A. Hybrid plants react worse to weak pathogens in the soil.
B. Wagner connected hybrid vigor with microbial communities.
C. Being naturally-born makes a plant interact differently with microbes.
D. Hybrid corn and naturally-born corn have similar microbial communities.
34. What effect would Wagner’s finding have?
A. Making farmers know what to grow to resist certain diseases.
B. Helping scientist realize the importance of spreading soil microbes.
C. Showing the significance of associating soil microbes with specific crops.
D. Highlighting the need for plant growers to find more microbial communities.
35. What may be the best title for the text?
A. Hybrid corn: a double-edged sword
B. How can farmers grow hybrid crops?
C. Hybrid vigor: a mysterious phenomenon
D. What role do soil microbes play in the harvests of corn?

China has uncovered a new high-speed bullet train 56 (design) for extremely cold cli-mates. The CR400AF-G train can operate at speeds of up to 350 kilometers per hour(217 mph) in temperatures as low as -40℃. It is part of the Fuxing series of high-speed electric trains developed 57 operated by the state-owned China State Railway Group. The train, rolled out in Beijing on January 6, will run on a new high-speed line 58 (connect)the Chinese capital with northeastern destinations including Shenyang and Harbin—the latter of which is famous for 59 ( it) annual snow and ice festival. The train also 60 (feature) a streamlined low-resistance design to help decrease energy consumption, and a lightweight body.
In a report by state-owned newspaper China Daily, Zhou Song, director of the China Railway Beijing Group，offered an analogy(类比) to explain the new train’s brake system: “If the train stops in Harbin, one of the China’s 61 (cold) cities in northernmost Heilongjiang, for an hour, because of the extremely cold weather, the braking system can 62 (easy) freeze if it stops moving for a while. The new system will enable the brakes to move from time to time even 63 the train stops, like a person who stamps his feet 64 (keep) warm in cold weather.”
Today, China is home to the world’s largest high-speed rail network, 65 spreads over 37,000 kilometers.

第二节（满分25分)
阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。
At eleven years old during my summer holiday, my main concern was money. I wanted to buy the new must-have thing my classmates had. I already had a “job” as a sales representative with a kids-based sales company, and I sold wrapping paper and greeting cards with the best of them. On my bedroom floor, I arranged the bills and change from my purse to see what I had. I wished it would multiply before my eyes, but of course it didn’t. l went to my mom. “Mom, I need more money,” I said, leaning against the kitchen counter while she cooked dinner. “What else can kids do for a job around here?” Mom responded with a smile, “Okay, let me ask around.”
The next day, she had an answer “Your grandmother will pay you to help her deliver lunch each day to the elderly.” Yes! I pumped my fist into the air. I couldn’t wait to start my new job on Monday after school dismissed for the summer.
When my grandmother picked me up, I thanked her for the job and started asking the job. “It’s simple. We pick up a large container full of hot meals in a nearby town and then we go on our delivery route,” she answered.
We arrived at the pick-up kitchen and got dozens of little shiny silver boxes with white lids that were hot. After our load was arranged in the backseat, my grandmother drove us to our first stop; a small white house. I took a meal and a small box of milk from the back and walked beside my grandmother to the front gate. She opened it and nodded to me to go in. I walked along the cracked walkway. Tall grass tickled(使发痒)my ankles.
Did someone really live here? I couldn’t imagine that. The house didn’t look nice, but I kept going. In front of the door leading to the enclosed front doorway, I paused, and my grandmother called out, “Mrs. Hershel, we’ve brought you some lunch.”
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 reply in a low voice came from my left, “Come on in.”



On the road home, my grandmother said, “For some of them, we’re the only person they see and a kind word and a smile go a long way.”
