In 1914, Ernest Shackleton and his team left England in a wooden sailing ship called the Endurance, hoping to become the first to cross Antarctica.
But in 1915, the Endurance became trapped over the Weddell Sea. The ice destroyed the Endurance and later sank it. Shackleton and all of his men abandoned the ship and managed to stay alive. Although they failed to complete the expedition, the tale of their long and difficult return is one of the most famous survival stories of all time.
Much was known about the location of the Endurance. The ship's captain kept accurate records of the ship's position. The ship's photographer even took pictures of it as it went down. But the ship, deep in the icy waters near Antarctica, had never been found.
Now, a search team called “Endurance 22” located the ship, which was found 1.87 miles below the ocean's surface, about four miles south of its last known position. The team reports that the ship is in excellent shape. Even though the ship is made of wood and is over 100 years old, it has survived with little damage. Scientists say that the small worms that normally break down wooden objects underwater don't live in the cold waters around Antarctica.
The Endurance 22 is led by the Falklands Maritime Heritage Trust. The team ran the project from an ice­breaking ship. To locate the Endurance, the team used two underwater robots called Sabertooths which can travel by themselves deep under the sea. What makes them unique is that they can travel under the ice and go where the ship can not. Once the ship was located, the Sabertooths used high­quality cameras and scanners to record the Endurance in detail.
The Endurance 22 plans to create a digital 3D model of the wreck site, using the careful scans they made. This will allow scientists to study the ship in detail without disturbing it.
24．What can we know about Shackleton?
A．He built the Endurance by himself. B．He was also a famous photographer.
C．He had a tough journey back home. D．He crossed Antarctica by the Endurance.
25．What helped preserve “the Endurance” well?
A．Fine weather. B．Cold water. C．Wood material. D．Unique structure.
26．What is special about the Sabertooths?
A．They can repair the ship. B．They can travel under the ice.
C．They can break ice on the sea. D．They can take pictures in detail.
27．How will the scientists deal with the discovered Endurance?
A．They will let it remain untouched.
B．They will rebuild it using 3D technology.
C．They will use scanners to record its details.
D．They will do research on creating a model.
C
According to new studies, many birds in the Amazon rainforest have become smaller as temperatures have increased. The difference hasn't been obvious, but it has been significant enough that some scientists have suggested it's a universal response to climate change.
But new research finds that the body size reductions aren't happening across the board with some large­brained birds having much less significant changes.
For the study, researchers studied some data on about 70，000 birds that had died when they crashed into buildings in Chicago from 1978 to 2016. They added data on brain volume and lifespan (寿命) for 49 of the 52 species of migratory birds (候鸟) in the original study.
They found that birds with very large brains had reductions in overall body size that were about one­third of the reductions noted in birds with smaller brains. They thought that in birds, the species with big brains are the ones that build tools, manage to survive in tough environments, live longer, invest more time and energy into raising babies, and end up surviving better in the wild.
Researchers aren't certain exactly how warmer temperatures might lead to decreasing body size in birds, but they are considering two possible explanations, which could even be happening at the same time. First, natural selection might be favoring birds that can dissipate heat better. This is because smaller birds have higher ratios (比例) of surface area to volume, so being small can help birds stay cool. Second, warmer summers might have less food available for birds at the time when they are feeding their babies. In that case, birds might be getting smaller because of decreased food over the years.
The findings don't suggest that climate change is having zero impact on bigger­brained birds, but researchers believe these findings can inform us of climate change and help set conservation priorities.
28．How does climate change affect birds?
A．Their body size shrinks. B．Their lifespan shortens.
C．Their body temperature rises. D．Their brain size expands.
29．How did the scientists do the research?
A．By analyzing the bird data. B．By observing the birds dying.
C．By studying the bird death rate. D．By clarifying the bird species.
30．Which word can best replace the underlined word “dissipate” in Paragraph 5?
A．use B．hold C．absorb D．lose
31．What can be the best title for the text?
A．Birds' Body Sizes Vary B．Brain Size Matters for Birds
C．Climate changes Sharply D．Temperature Rises Globally
D
You might have ever noticed how some people can effortlessly talk to anyone they meet, no matter how different their backgrounds are. Or you may have seen that one person always offends someone, no matter what the topic of conversation is. These two situations describe how we can differ in our abilities to interact, get along with, and relate to others around us. In the same way that we vary in traditional academic competencies, we can vary in how socially competent we are. After years of academic research and development, this social ability is now commonly referred to as “social intelligence”．
Social intelligence is the ability to understand other people, how they work, what motivates them, and how to work cooperatively with them. It is a relationship­based construct that centers on the way we understand others, interact with others, and present ourselves to others. As an example, you would not speak in the same way toward your 70­year­old mother as you would to your 16­year­old daughter. In our working lives, we come across different social groups including those from different countries, varying age groups and cultural identities. Being able to acknowledge and understand people's different backgrounds is a key way to connect with them.
Our ability to navigate successfully through our lives relies heavily on our levels of social intelligence. It can affect the relationships we form with our partners and children, the friendship circles that we build, and our ability to progress in our careers and ambitions. Given the importance of social intelligence in multiple aspects of life, it is therefore in our best interest to better understand the concept of social intelligence and take the following ways to improve it.
32．What is the first paragraph intended to show?
A．Academic research varies from person to person.
B．Social competencies are crucial to academic research.
C．Social competencies are of difference person to person.
D．Academic research shows people's social competencies.
33．Why does the author use the example of mother and daughter?
A．To present a fact. B．To justify an idea.
C．To introduce a topic. D．To draw a conclusion.
34．What do we know from the third paragraph?
A．It is difficult to develop social intelligence.
B．Our relationship circles should be enlarged.
C．Better understanding a concept is important.
D．Social intelligence has great effects on our lives.
35．What may be talked about following the last paragraph?
A．How to define social intelligence. B．How to classify social intelligence.
C．How to improve social intelligence. D．How to deal with social intelligence.

阅读下面短文，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。
Green exercise is a term used to describe any type of physical exercise that takes place in a natural environment rather than in a health club or gym. __36__. Instead, it relies on the use of natural means of taking part in activities that improve strength and endurance with as little reliance on equipment as possible.
__37__. For example, some consider a truly natural exercise experience requires that the individual wear clothing only made from natural fibers. Others consider barefoot running or walking with a big arena to be more desirable than running or walking with shoes.
A slightly different approach to green exercise puts more stress on the fresh air, sunshine and involvement with the natural world, rather than the equipment or clothing used during the exercise. __38__. Similarly, climbing a mountain using standard equipment and protective clothing would also be considered a green exercise.
Many consider green exercise helps to reconnect human beings with the natural world. The interaction with nature helps to lower people's blood pressure, refresh their mind, and actually improve their self­esteem. __39__.
Not everyone believes that the green exercise is more beneficial than working out in a health club or gym. __40__. Meanwhile, the use of fitness devices may result in more challenging workouts which help strengthen the heart and lungs in ways that more simplistic exercise in a natural setting would be difficult to manage.
A．A green gym uses as little equipment as possible
B．Spirits are also believed to be positively affected
C．Opinions on what truly green exercise means differ
D．Green exercise includes a range of activities exposed to nature
E．So riding a bicycle in the forest can be called a type of green exercise
F．It usually doesn't use fitness equipment that is normally found in a gym
G．Some point out that many health clubs are built to make full use of natural light

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。
As a young boy, I was carefree. Every vacation I looked forward to two things—seeing my grandpa and hearing his wonderful stories. My grandpa was a very good storyteller. He had worked various odd jobs when he was young and wove his adventures and misadventures into fantastic tales. These wonderful tales colored my childhood.
As I grew up, I had to admit that Grandpa's stories went on a little long, even a little boring and gradually lost their magic. However, not wanting to upset him, my brother and I would sometimes take turns sitting in the living room, listening to grandpa tell his stories.
When my grandpa was approaching 91, he suffered from serious memory­loss. It was kind of what doctors called dementia (痴呆), probably the earliest stage of Alzheimer's disease. Following the doctor's directions, we moved him into a Sunrise Assisted Living Community, where he could get a better care. After that, grandpa hardly came to our house.
One weekend before my grandpa's birthday, I came to visit him. Seeing grandpa sitting in his armchair, dull­looking, I was consumed with mixed feelings. I wheeled grandpa to the sunshine in the courtyard, talking to him. He couldn't express himself clearly and spoke in short bursts, but I listened to him patiently and carefully just as I used to be a little boy.
It was then that I noticed a shadow box with some old and yellowish photos in it. I picked one up, in which my brother, several boys in our neighborhood, and I were playing basketball with grandpa cheering us on twenty years before. My mind flashed back to those beautiful memories. Back then, Grandpa was in good physical condition and we were all wearing basketball jerseys, playing and laughing with abandon. I presented the photo to my grandpa, pointing at each member and reminding him of their names. Incredibly, grandpa could speak out the name of every player. I even caught a soft light in grandpa's eyes and a smile on his lips.
注意：1.续写词数应为150左右；
2．请按下列格式作答。
A bright idea for grandpa's birthday came to my mind. ________________________________________________________________________

The hotel is already paid for so we don't have to worry about it.
M: I suppose you're right.

(W) I'm going to start at Columbia University this September and going to travel the world before it. So I'm saving money with a couple of part­time jobs. I work as a waitress in a restaurant and as a sales assistant in a clothes shop. It is hard but worth it. Now I plan to finish my jobs in a week. Then I'll fly out to Bangkok first. My plan is to travel southward through Thailand and Malaysia. I'll travel on cheap trains and I'll save my money by only staying in the cheap hotels. I'll pass through Singapore and go on to Indonesia. I'm going to spend about two months in Indonesia. I will travel from one island to another by ship. Finally I'll fly to Darwin in Northern Australia and spend about a month making my way down the east coast of Australia. I've been told that I can make some money by picking fruit in Northern Australia. Also I'm thinking about getting some part­time jobs in Sydney. I hope to finally arrive in Melbourne about six months after I set off from New York. Then I'll come back to New York in August and prepare for my school.

21．答案与解析：A　细节理解题。根据第四段Atlantis Books段落中“Throughout the year it hosts literary festivals, film screenings, book readings, and good old­fashioned dance parties. (它全年都举办文学节、电影放映、读书会和老式舞会。)”可知，在Atlantis Books书店你能参加一个节日——文学节。故选A项。
22．答案与解析：C　细节理解题。对比这六个书店的创建时间可知，Bart's Books创建的最早(1964年)，所以它的历史最长。故选C项。
23．答案与解析：D　细节理解题。根据最后一段The Bookworm段落中“A bookshop, library, bar, restaurant and event space, now with five locations in three cities in China—Beijing, Suzhou and Chengdu. (集书店、图书馆、酒吧、餐厅和活动空间于一身，目前在中国北京、苏州和成都三个城市设有五个分店。)”可知，The Bookworm书店与其他书店不同的是它在不同的城市有分支。故选D项。
B
【语篇解读】　本文是一篇说明文。1915年，木制帆船“耐力号”被困在厚冰层中，后来沉没。后来名叫Endurance 22的搜寻小组宣布找到这艘船，并介绍了寻找它的方法。
24．答案与解析：C　细节理解题。根据第二自然段“Shackleton and all of his men abandoned the ship and managed to stay alive. Although they failed to complete the expedition, the tale of their long and difficult return is one of the most famous survival stories of all time.(Shackleton和他的所有人放弃了这艘船，设法活了下来。尽管他们未能完成这次探险，但他们漫长而艰难的归来是有史以来最著名的生存故事之一。)”可知，Shackleton回家的旅途很艰难。故选C。
25．答案与解析：B　推理判断题。根据第四自然段“Scientists say that the small worms that normally break down wooden objects underwater don't live in the cold waters around Antarctica.(科学家说，通常在水下分解木质物体的小蠕虫并不生活在南极洲周围的寒冷水域。)”可知，南极洲周围的寒冷的水域里没有分解木制物体的小蠕虫，因此冷水帮助保存了“耐力号”。故选B。
26．答案与解析：B　细节理解题。根据倒数第二段的“To locate the Endurance, the team used two underwater robots called Sabertooths which can travel by themselves deep under the sea. What makes them unique is that they can travel under the ice and go where the ship can not. (为了定位‘耐力号’，研究小组使用了两个名为Sabertooths的水下机器人，它们可以自己在深海中行走。它们的独特之处在于，它们可以在冰下航行，可以去船不能去的地方)”可知，Sabertooths可以在冰下行走。故选B。
27．答案与解析：A　推理判断题。根据最后一段“This will allow scientists to study the ship in detail without disturbing it.(这将使科学家能够在不干扰的情况下详细研究这艘船。)”可知，科学家会让“耐力号”保持原样。故选A。

【语篇解读】　本文是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述根据新的研究，随着气温升高，亚马逊雨林中的许多鸟类体型变小了，但是体型的缩小并不是全面发生的，一些脑容量较大的鸟类的变化要小得多。
28．答案与解析：A　细节理解题。根据第一段中“According to new studies, many birds in the Amazon rainforest have become smaller as temperatures have increased.(根据新的研究，随着气温升高，亚马逊雨林中的许多鸟类体型变小了)”可知，气候变化使鸟的体型缩小了。故选A项。
29．答案与解析：A　推理判断题。根据第三段的“For the study, researchers studied some data on about 70，000 birds that had died when they crashed into buildings in Chicago from 1978 to 2016.(在这项研究中，研究人员研究了1978年至2016年期间芝加哥约7万只鸟类撞楼死亡的数据)”可知，科学家们是通过分析有关鸟类的数据来做这项研究的，故选A项。
30．答案与解析：D　词义猜测题。根据画线词后一句“This is because smaller birds have higher ratios (比例) of surface area to volume, so being small can help birds stay cool.(这是因为较小的鸟类表面积与体积的比例更高，所以体型小可以帮助鸟类保持凉爽)”可知，保持凉爽就是可以更好地散热，由此可推知，画线词所在的句子意思是“自然选择可能偏爱那些能够更好地散热的鸟类”，dissipate意思是“使……消散”，和lose意思相近，故选D项。
31．答案与解析：B　主旨大意题。通读全文，尤其是第一段的“According to new studies, many birds in the Amazon rainforest have become smaller as temperatures have increased.(根据新的研究，随着气温升高，亚马逊雨林中的许多鸟类体型变小了)”和第二段“But new research finds that the body size reductions aren't happening across the board with some large­brained birds having much less significant changes.(但新的研究发现，体型的缩小并不是全面发生的，一些脑容量较大的鸟类的变化要小得多)”可知，本文主要讲的是根据新的研究，随着气温升高，亚马逊雨林中的许多鸟类体型变小了，但是体型的缩小并不是全面发生的，一些脑容量较大的鸟类的变化要小得多，因此B项“Brain Size Matters for Birds(鸟类的大脑大小很重要)”适合作为文章标题，故选B项。
D
【语篇解读】　本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了“社交智力”这个概念，以及人们在社交智力上是有差异的，社交智力对人们的家庭和睦、结交朋友和事业发展有着很大的影响。
32．答案与解析：C　推理判断题。根据第一段第三句开始“These two situations describe how we can differ in our abilities to interact, get along with, and relate to others around us. In the same way that we vary in traditional academic competencies, we can vary in how socially competent we are. After years of academic research and development, this social ability is now commonly referred to as ‘social intelligence’. (这两种情况描述了我们在与周围的人互动、相处和联系的能力上的差异。就像我们在传统的学术能力上有差异一样，我们在社会能力上也有差异。经过多年的学术研究和发展，这种社交能力现在通常被称为‘社交智力’)”可推知，本段主要陈述了什么是“社交智力”这个概念，以及人们在社交智力上是有差异的。故选C项。
33．答案与解析：B　推理判断题。根据第二段“Social intelligence is the ability to understand other people, how they work, what motivates them, and how to work cooperatively with them. It is a relationship­based construct that centers on the way we understand others, interact with others, and present ourselves to others. As an example, you would not speak in the same way toward your 70­year­old mother as you would to your 16­year­old daughter. (社交智力是理解他人、理解他们如何工作、理解什么激励他们以及理解如何与他们合作的能力。它是一种以关系为基础的构建，以我们理解他人、与他人互动以及向他人展示自己的这些方式为中心。举个例子，你不会像对待16岁的女儿那样对待70岁的母亲。)”可推知，本段在介绍“社交智力”这个概念，并用对母亲和女儿的不同的互动方式为例，形象地证明“社交智力”的概念。故选B项。
34．答案与解析：D　细节理解题。根据最后一段第一、二句话“Our ability to navigate successfully through our lives relies heavily on our levels of social intelligence. It can affect the relationships we form with our partners and children, the friendship circles that we build, and our ability to progress in our careers and ambitions. (我们成功驾驭生活的能力在很大程度上取决于我们的社交智力水平。它会影响我们与伴侣和孩子建立的关系、我们建立的友谊圈，以及我们在事业和抱负上取得进步的能力)”可知，社交智力对我们的生活有很大影响，影响到家庭是否和睦，也影响到与朋友间的关系，以及事业发展。故选D项。
35．答案与解析：C　推理判断题。根据最后一段最后一句话“Given the importance of social intelligence in multiple aspects of life, it is therefore in our best interest to better understand the concept of social intelligence and take the following ways to improve it. (鉴于社交智力在生活的多个方面的重要性，因此，更好地理解社会智力的概念并采取以下方法来提高它，对我们来说最有利的)”可推知，因为社交智力对我们的生活很重要，人们应该采取以下的措施来提高它，接下来的段落就要介绍如何提高社交智力。故选C项。

【语篇解读】　本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了一种新的运动方式——绿色运动，不同于在使用健身房的健身设施，更强调与大自然的接触，表明其利弊。
36．答案与解析：F　根据上文“Green exercise is a term used to describe any type of physical exercise that takes place in a natural environment rather than in a health club or gym.(绿色运动是一个术语，用于描述在自然环境中进行的任何类型的体育锻炼，而不是在健身俱乐部或健身房中。)”开头介绍绿色运动不同于在健身房的锻炼，空格处承上启下，以及后文的“Instead，”表明空格处的意义与后文相反。因此，空格处应继续说明绿色运动与健身房运动的不同之处，F项“It usually doesn't use fitness equipment that is normally found in a gym (它通常不使用健身房里常见的健身器材)”符合文意，提到了“gym”，与上下文一致。故选F。
37．答案与解析：C　根据后文“For example, some consider a truly natural exercise experience requires that the individual wear clothing only made from natural fibers. Others consider barefoot running or walking with a big arena to be more desirable than running or walking with shoes.(例如，一些人认为，真正自然的运动体验要求人只穿天然纤维制成的衣服。其他人则认为赤脚跑步或在大型竞技场上行走，比穿着鞋子跑步或行走更可取。)”从两个方面举例说明了两种不同的绿色运动方式。因此空格处总结性说明不同的人，对于什么是真正的绿色运动观点不同。C项“Opinions on what truly green exercise means differ (人们对什么是真正的绿色运动意见不一)”符合文意。故选C。
38．答案与解析：E　根据后文“Similarly, climbing a mountain using standard equipment and protective clothing would also be considered a green exercise.(同样，使用标准设备和防护服爬山也将被视为绿色运动。)”表明什么样的锻炼会被视为绿色运动，由“Similarly，”可知，空格处也是在介绍绿色运动的类型，而E项中“can be called a type of green exercise”与后文中的“also be considered a green exercise”结构一致，都是在介绍绿色运动的类型，E项“So riding a bicycle in the forest can be called a type of green exercise (因此，在森林里骑自行车可以被称为一种绿色运动)”符合文意。故选E。
39．答案与解析：B　根据前文“The interaction with nature helps to lower peoples' blood pressure, refresh their mind, and actually improve their self­esteem.(与大自然的互动有助于降低人们的血压，更新他们的思维，并真正地提高他们的自尊。)”介绍了绿色运动对于身体、头脑和心理健康的好处，而B项“Spirits are also believed to be positively affected (人们认为，精神也会受到积极影响)”承接上文，接着说明了绿色运动在精神上的积极影响。故选B。
40．答案与解析：G　根据上文“Not everyone believes that the green exercise is more beneficial than working out in a health club or gym.(并非所有人都认为绿色运动比在健身俱乐部或健身房锻炼更有益。)”可知，该段在介绍另一种观点，指出使用健身器材锻炼也有好处，以及“Meanwhile，...”后文说明使用健身器材有利于增强心肺功能。因此，空格处也是在讲述健身俱乐部或者健身房的优点，G项“Some point out that many health clubs are built to make full use of natural light (一些人指出，许多健身俱乐部都是为了充分利用自然光而建的)”符合文意，其中的“many health clubs”与上文的“in a health club or gym”上下一致。故选G。

57．答案与解析：regarded　考查非谓语动词。句意：废塑料瓶，通常被视为对当地环境的极大破坏，以每瓶0.5元的价格出售，目的是提高人们对西藏污染问题的认识。分析句子结构可知，该句中已经有一个谓语动词were sold，且没有连词，所以此处应填非谓语动词，regard意为“认为”，与空前的名词Waste plastic bottles为被动关系，所以应为过去分词。故填regarded。
58．答案与解析：intention　考查名词。句意：废塑料瓶，通常被视为对当地环境的极大破坏，以每瓶0.5元的价格出售，目的是提高人们对西藏污染问题的认识。此空位于冠词之后，介词之前，所以填名词，intend的名词为intention意为“目的，意图”。故填intention。

参考范文：
Abrightideaforgrandpa'sbirthdaycametomymind. “Why not give grandpa a surprise？” I said to myself. I immediately got down to carrying out my plan. Luckily, I contacted all the players in the photo. To my great delight, they were greatly touched by the plan and all agreed to join in. To make the scene real, I even managed to find all the basketball jerseys, equipment and arrange for a similar­looking basketball court. The big day finally came. After wheeling my grandpa to the court, we began the special game. While playing, I kept an eye on grandpa, waiting for something deep down.
Seeing “thesameplayers” playingthere, grandpaseemedtohavethoughtofsomething. Glancing at grandpa again, I found him cheering us on just like 20 years before. Sitting in the warm sunlight, he cheered and clapped, with a bigger smile. For a while, my mind seemed to flash back to those beautiful days. Indeed, my plan somewhat worked. I was overjoyed that I could do something to delight Grandpa, an important person in my 1ife. I was not sure whether this birthday would stick in his mind, but one thing was certain: it'd definitely stick in mine.
