三、阅读理解
Earth Hour is a yearly event which asks people to turn off all lights and use no electricity (电) for an hour. The aim is to get people to think about the planet they live on and the energy they use.
What is Earth Hour?
Earth Hour is a yearly activity that encourages people and businesses around the world to turn off electricity at the same time for one hour. Earth Hour started in Australia in 2007 when 2.2 million people in the city of Sydney turned off all unnecessary lights for an hour. Since then it has grown to a large worldwide event. In2013, millions of people in 7,000 cities and towns around the world turned off their lights for 60 minutes at the end of March. Everyyear landmarks and well-known buildings around the world take part and “go dark”for Earth Hour.
Who organises Earth Hour?
Earth Hour is organised by the World Wide Fund for Nature (WWF). It was started by Andy Ridley, who is in charge of this activity in WWF. He came up with the idea of Earth Hour because he wanted to raise awareness of environmental problems by asking people to do something good to help the planet. Turning off the lights for an hour can make a small difference to the amount of energy we use, but Earth Hour is also a representative event to make people think about the problems of climate change.
Why March?

Hao Ruoqi is known for playing the heroic fighter “Hua Mulan”. She is one of China’s most popular female dancers of the post-90s generation.
In 2017, Hao Ruoqi starred in the lead role of the historical dance drama Hua Mulan. “The spirit of Mulan exists in everyone’s mind, expressing the power of women. I am fortunate to be able to spread the energy of Mulan through dance. I think Mulan was not only a strong person, but also a woman who was capable of great love and wisdom, and had the ability to accept everything.” Hao said.
Hao said that the first practices for Hua Mulan did not go very smoothly. However, she pushed her limits to get closer to the character. She described taking the role as a learning experience and a great challenge.
“During practices, I cried every night when I returned to the hotel, just to reduce the pressure.  At that time, I thought to myself that never again in my life would I want to dance after Hua Mulan,” she said, “but I grew up during that period, which took quite some time. I tried hard to act out every aspect of Mulan’s character very carefully. ”
When it came to the action scenes, she said “This was the most difficult because dancing is a smooth and beautiful art while martial arts(武术) focus on speed and strength. We struggled sometimes to deliver fast and correct hits while maintaining our attractive dance moves. I remember my body was covered in bruises(瘀伤) at that time.”
The production won the top award for dancing and has received admiration from audiences across the nation, having been performed on stage almost 100 times.
Hao’s talent may have been widely recognized, but she’s not resting on her laurels just yet. “I will keep moving forward with my career as a dancer. I hope I can tell more stories of famous figures from Chinese history through the power of dance, she said, “and I’m proud that I can contribute to spreading traditional Chinese culture. I’m not done yet. ”
30．According to Hao Ruoqi, which word can NOT describe Hua Mulan?

31．What did Hao do to relieve stress during practices?
A．She gave up the acting after some time.

A．Attractive dancing moves.
B．Getting bruises before practices.

Teenagers who spend more than three hours a day on social media may have doubled the risk of mental health problems compared with those who avoid it, research suggests.
The study of more than 6,000 children aged 12 to 15 found those who used social media more heavily were more likely to report situations such as sadness, anxiety and loneliness, as well as aggression (攻击性) and anti-social actions, than teenagers who did not use social media. The findings held true even when researchers took into account mental health problems experienced by young persons in the year before they were asked about social media use.
The research, from a team at Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health in Maryland, was published in the journal JAMA Psychiatry(精神病学).
Some previous studies have suggested no connection between poorer mental health and screen time. Dr Rina Dutta, senior medical lecturer at Kings College London, said, “A main strength of this study compared to previous research is that the researchers took into account mental health problems the young people already had a year before the measurement of social media use. This largely overcomes the ‘what came first-mental health problem or high social media use? ’question.”
The study looked at two types of actions that can show mental health problems: internalising(内化行为)and externalising(外化行为). Internalising can include social disconnection or difficulty dealing with anxiety or sadness. Externalising can include aggression or breaking instructions.
The study found that the use of social media for at least three hours a day was connected with around twice the risk of mental health problems, compared with those who avoided it.
Lead author Kira Riehm said, “Many present studies have found a connection between digital or social media use and the health of teens, but few look at this connection across time. We cannot say that social media causes mental health problems, but we do think that less time on social media may be better for the health of teens.
The study found that fewer than 17 percent of teenagers did not use social media. Of those who did, 32 percent spent less than 30 minutes a day; 31 percent spent 30 minutes to three hours; 12 percent spent three to six hours and 8 percent spent more than six hours per day.
Ms Riehm said, “Social media has the ability to connect teenagers who may be excluded(排除在外) in their daily life. We need to find a better way to balance the benefits of social media with possible harmful health results.”
35．The research published in the journal JAMA Psychiatry aims to prove________
A．the advantages and disadvantages of social media.
B．the mental health problems experienced by teenagers.
C．the connection between mental health and screen time
D．the sadness, anxiety and loneliness caused by social media
36．Compared to previous researches, an advantage of the research published in JAMA Psychiatry is that________
A．it supports the less use of social media
B．it reports the health risks caused by the screen time
C．it includes more than 6,000 children aged 12 to 15
D．it considers mental health problems the young people already had
37．Which of the following might be one of the internalising actions?
A．Aggression.
B．Following instructions.
C．Skillfully dealing with anxiety.
D．Being afraid of talking to people.
38．What was Kira Riehm’s view on social media?
A．It would play a balanced role.
B．It might disconnect teenagers.
C．It caused mental health problems.
D．It might be better for the health of teens.
39．What is the main idea of the passage?
A．Social media is capable of connecting teenagers.
B．Teenagers have mental health problems before using social media.
C．Social media connects to increased risk of mental health problems
D．Teenagers with less time on social media do better than those with more time.


四、阅读表达
阅读下面短文和问题，根据短文内容和每小题后的具体要求，在答题卡相应题号后的横线上写下相关信息，完成对该问题的回答。答语要意思清楚，结构正确，书写工整。
It is possible that you’ve heard one of the world’s most famous piano pieces Für Elise. It was written by the great German composer Ludwig van Beethoven. He is considered by some to be the greatest composer of all time, Sadly, Beethoven didn’t live long enough to enjoy the popularity of this little piece. It wasn’t published until many years after his death.
Though Beethoven composed Für Elise in 1810, it wasn’t discovered until 1865. It was published two years later, and the music became popular right away. However, some details remain a secret, especially the title because Beethoven wasn’t alive to discuss the work.
Ludwig Nohl, the man who discovered the piece, believed the title read Fur Elise. Yet because Beethoven had terrible handwriting, others weren’t sure who it was dedicated (献给) to. Some thought it might have read Fur Therese. The title Fur Elise means For Elise in German. But to this day, no one knows for sure who Elise was.
Some believe Therese Malfatti, Beethoven’s student and friend, is the strongest candidate (候选人) for the piece’s title. It’s believed that he proposed marriage (求婚) to her in 1810, but they never married. After her death, the music, which was signed by Beethoven, was found in her things.
Why is Für Elise still so popular today? It is because many piano students are introduced to it by their teachers. It’s also part of German pop culture. For instance the easily recognizable music can be heard in commercials (商业广告) and in movies. It’s also a popular mobile phone ring. Google has reported millions of searches for the  famous music.  In some places of China, rubbish trucks play the music to remind people to take out their rubbish. At times, the music has confused (使混淆) some foreigners who are used to musical trucks that carry ice cream, not rubbish.

32．细节理解题。根据第五段“This was the most difficult because dancing is a smooth and beautiful art while martial arts (武术) focus on speed and strength. We struggled sometimes to deliver fast and correct hits while maintaining our attractive dance moves. I remember my body was covered in bruises(瘀伤) at that time.(这是最难的，因为舞蹈是一种流畅而美丽的艺术，而武术则注重速度和力量。我们有时在保持迷人的舞蹈动作的同时努力传递快速和正确的一击。我记得当时我全身都是瘀伤。)”可知，在动作戏中，用武术表现舞蹈是巨大挑战。故选D项。
33．词句猜测题。划线词句后文“I will keep moving forward with my career as a dancer. (我将继续我的舞蹈事业。)”以及“I’m not done yet. (我还没有完成。)”说明郝若琦并没有满足已有的成绩，在自己的舞蹈事业中继续努力。从而推知划线词句“Hao’s talent may have been widely recognized, but she’s not resting on her laurels just yet.(郝的才华也许已经得到了广泛的认可，但她not resting on her laurels)”其中划线短语应为“不满足自己的成绩”的意思。故选C项。
34．主旨大意题。根据第一段“Hao Ruoqi is known for playing the heroic fighter ‘Hua Mulan’. She is one of China’s most popular female dancers of the post-90s generation.(郝若琦因饰演英雄战士‘花木兰’而闻名。她是中国最受欢迎的90后女舞者之一。)”可知，本文讲述了90后女舞者郝若琦因饰演英雄战士“花木兰”而闻名的故事。D项“舞剧中的英雄战士花木兰”符合题意。故选D项。

【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了社交媒体的过多使用会增加青少年心理健康的问题的风险。

The findings held true even when researchers took into account mental health problems experienced by young persons in the year before they were asked about social media use.(这项针对6000多名12岁至15岁儿童的研究发现，与不使用社交媒体的青少年相比，频繁使用社交媒体的儿童更有可能出现悲伤、焦虑、孤独、攻击性和反社会行为等情况。即使研究人员考虑到年轻人在被问及社交媒体使用情况之前一年经历的心理健康问题，这一发现仍然成立。)”可知，发表在《美国医学会精神病学》杂志上的这项研究旨在证明心理健康和盯着屏幕看的时间之间的联系。故选C项。
36．细节理解题。根据第四段“Some previous studies have suggested no connection between poorer mental health and screen time. Dr Rina Dutta, senior medical lecturer at Kings College London, said, ‘A main strength of this study compared to previous research is that the researchers took into account mental health problems the young people already had a year before the measurement of social media use. This largely overcomes the ‘what came first-mental health problem or high social media use?’ question.’(与之前的研究相比，这项研究的一个主要优势是，研究人员在测量社交媒体使用前一年就考虑到了年轻人已经存在的心理健康问题。这在很大程度上克服了‘最初出现的心理健康问题或社交媒体的大量使用？’这个问题。)”可知，最近关于心理健康和盯着屏幕看的时间之间的联系的研究是在考虑年轻人在测量社交媒体使用前一年就已经存在的心理健康问题的前提下进行的。故选D项。

38．推理判断题。根据最后一段“Ms Riehm said, ‘Social media has the ability to connect teenagers who may bee excluded(排除在外) in their daily life. We need to find a better way to balance the benefits of social media with possible harmful health results. ’(Riehm女士说：‘社交媒体有能力将那些在日常生活中可能被排除在外的青少年联系起来。我们需要找到一种更好的方法来平衡社交媒体的好处和可能对健康有害的结果。’)”可知，Kira Riehm的看法是社交媒体将发挥平衡的作用，青少年应该对自己有利的社交媒体来平衡社交媒体带来的利与弊。故选A项。
39．主旨大意题。根据第一段“Teenagers who spend more than three hours a day on social media may have doubled the risk of mental health problems compared with those who avoid it, research suggests.(研究表明，每天花在社交媒体上的时间超过3小时的青少年患心理健康问题的风险可能是不上社交媒体的青少年的两倍。)”可知，本文主要讲述了社交媒体的过多使用会增加青少年心理健康问题的风险。故选C项。

43．推理判断题。根据最后一段的“In some places of China, rubbish trucks play the music to remind people to take out their rubbish.(在中国的一些地方，垃圾车播放音乐来提醒人们把垃圾拿出去。)”可知，在中国的一些地方，垃圾车播放Fur Elise是为了提醒人们把垃圾拿出去，故答案为To remind people to take out their rubbish.
