You are drinking plastic, I’m drinking plastic and we’re all drinking plastic. Bottled water drinkers may be drinking the most plastic of all.
A new study released by Orb Media evaluates that on average , a liter of bottled water from big brands like Dasani , Aquafina , and Nestle, contains roughly 10.4 tiny plastic bits. The world drinks them in swiftly, consuming roughly a million plastic bottles a minute, as The Guardian evaluates. Aquafina and Dasani both said that their bottled water is tested on strict standards. Nestle said the company hasn’t found microplastics in its water bottles beyond a “trace(微量)level”. Evian did not immediately respond to a request for comment.
In our modern, plastic-filling world, these little plastic bits －many thinner than a human hair －seem to be very common everywhere. We don’t know exactly what these plastic parts are doing to our bodies, but we’re drinking them in anyway. That’s an alarming possibility, because in the ocean, these little plastics are doing harmful things to fish. In some species, they’re even slowing down growth and reproduction.
While there isn’t clear evidence yet that the plastics in single-use water bottles can increase cancer risk, we know that bottles containing a chemical called Bisphenol A (BPA) do. The hard BPA plastics in certain reusable water bottles can lead to higher risks of breast cancer, and other diseases. And a few studies suggest the softer kinds of single-use water bottles can have similar chemicals inside.
The tiny plastic bits aren’t just in our bottles . They come out of our taps,too. The tiny plastics are also swimming in the seas and disturbing the way fish eat. In some countries, microplastics are even slipping into the salt markets. Even Dasani wrote in its statement: “ It’s clear the world has a problem with plastic waste.”
24.What can we infer about Evian?
A.It is a social medium. B. It produces a chemical.
C.It can be a plastic bottle. D. It can be a water company.
25.What does the author intend to do in Paragraph 3?
A.Describe basic facts about plastics. B. Focus on the potential danger of plastics.
C.Discuss the living conditions of fish. D. Come up with the part plastics are playing.
26.What does the author’s attitude towards microplastics sound?
A.Anxious. B. Positive. C. Disappointed. D. Uncaring.
27.What can be a suitable title for the text?
A.Here’s What Microplastics in Bottled Water Do B.Bottled Water Does Harm to the Environment
C.The Importance of Recycling Water Bottles D.Species Are Suffering from Microplastics

C
Do you know of anyone who uses the truth to deceive(欺骗)?When someone tells you something that is true, but leaves out important information that should be included, he can give you a false picture.
For example, someone might say, ''I just won a hundred dollars on the lottery(彩票). It was great. I took that dollar ticket back to the store and turned it in for one hundred dollars!"
This guy’s a winner, right? Maybe, maybe not．We then discover that he bought$200 worth of tickets, and only one was a winner. He’s really a big loser!
He didn’t say anything that was false, but he left out important information on purpose. That’s called a half-truth. Half truths are not technically lies, but they are just as dishonest.
Some politicians often use this trick. Let’s say that during Governor Smith’s last term, her state lost one million jobs and gained three million jobs. Then she seeks another term. One of her opponents says, “During Governor Smith’s term，the state lost one million jobs!” That’s true. However, an honest statement would have been, “During Governor Smith’s term, the state had a net gain of two million jobs.”
Advertisers will sometimes use half-truths. It's against the law to make false statements so they try to mislead you with the truth. An advertisement might say, “Nine out of ten doctors advised their patients to take Yucky Pills to cure toothache.”' It fails to mention that they only asked ten doctors and nine of them work for the Yucky Company．
This kind of deception happens too often．It’s a sad fact of life：Lies are lies,and sometimes the truth can 1ie as well.
28.The underlined word “opponents”in Paragraph 5 means  ___________.
A.cooperator B. partner C.      enemy D. assistant
29.We may infer that the author believes people should ___________.
A.not trust the Yucky Company B. not take anything at face value
C.make use of half-truths D.buy lottery tickets if possible
30.Which of the following is true according to the passage?
A.Using half truths is against the law
B.Technically, half truths are in fact lies
C.Yucky Pill is a very good medicine for toothache.
D. Governor Smith did a good job during her last term.
31.What can we know from the example of the Yucky Pill advertisement?
A. Half-truths are often used to mislead people. B. Advertisements are based on facts.    
C.  False statements are easy to see through.   D.Doctors like to act in advertisements.

D
We've all had the experience of wanting to get a project done but putting it off to a later date. So why do we delay things? Are we built to operate this way at some times?
These questions are central to my research on goal pursuit . It all starts with a simple choice between working now on a given project and doing anything else.The decision to work on something is driven by how much we value accomplishing the project in that moment－what psychologists call its subject value. And delay, in psychological terms, is what happens when the value of doing something else outweighs the value of working now.
This way of thinking suggests a simple trick to defeat delay. For example, instead of cleaning my house, I might try to focus on why grading papers is personally important to me. It’s simple advice, but sticking to this strategy can be quite difficult.
People are not entirely wise in the way they value things. For example, a dollar bill is worth exactly the same today as it is a week from now, but its subjective value－roughly how good it would feel to own a dollar －depends on other factors besides its face value, such as when we receive it. The tendency for people to devalue money and other goods based on time is called delay discounting. For example, receiving $ 100 three months from now is worth the same to people as receiving $83 right now. People would rather lose $17 than wait a few months to get a large reward.
Getting something done is a delayed reward, so its value in the present is reduced: the further away the deadline is, the less attractive it seems to work on the project right now. The tendency to delay things closely follows economic models of delay discounting . One way to manage it is to make the finish line seem closer. For example, vividly imagining a future reward reduces delay discounting.
32.Which of the following best explains “outweighs” underlined in paragraph 2 ?
A. Is equal to. B. Is greater than C. Is involved in D. Is central to
33.What should we do to overcome delay in the author’s opinion?
A. Avoid setting a deadline too strictly B. Consider doing nothing temporarily
C.Increase the subjective value of working now D. Realize great fun of working immediately
34.Which proverb can best summarize the theory of delay discounting?
A. Time and tide wait for no man. B. A bird in the hand is worth two in the bush.
C. One of these days is none of these days. D.Don’t count your chickens before they are hatched.
35.What is suggested to deal with delay discounting?
A. Asking for nothing in return B. Lowering our high expectations
C. Searching for instant satisfaction D. Making future rewards more inviting

Post-graduation life comes with a lot of new responsibilities . But what happens when you move to a new town and don’t know anyone? 36 Here are a few steps you can take towards making a new friendship.
♦ Join a gym . From the locker room to the exercise classes, the possibilities of starting up a casual conversation with a stranger are endless at the gym. Maybe try asking someone to grab a bite after your yoga or Zumba class is over.
♦ 37 Networking is the word you always hear when you are talking about starting your career, but it also applies to starting a new friendship. Going to these events can help you meet other young adults who are also looking for friends.
♦ 38 It’s becoming more and more common that people meet and become friends via the Internet and their favorite social network. Use Instagram, Twitter, or your personal blog to meet people who you have things in common with, and set up a meeting. Of course, you have to be careful when meeting someone on the Web. 39 .
♦Go back to class. We’re not talking about more school, but instead, a class on a subject you’ve always wanted to try. Want to learn how to cook? 40 Going to classes will not only teach you some valuable ( or at least interesting) skill, but it will also put you in a room with people you have things in common with! Starting a conversation will be easy, and just let it go from there.
A. Use social media.
B. Enjoy networking events.
C. Or how about a new style of dance ?
D. Make networking events do good to your work.

We Chinese have all along hold the coming-of-age ceremony since ancient times, and it may be unfamiliar to some of us . Nowadays, however, it is gaining little popularity in many places. This year’s coming-of-age ceremony in our school will be held at 5 p.m. on next Friday in the lecture hall. To make it a complete success, first, a video about students and our campus life will be showing. Our principal will then deliver an excited speech, after which, some students representatives will make a serious promise to be responsible adults. Beside, on behalf of the students’ union, I will invite our foreign teacher Mrs. Beck to attend ceremony. Hopefully, she can give me a few words of encouragement.

作文（满分25分）
Good morning ,everyone,
I’m very happy to talk about my idea of rural revitalization . I suggest villages set up self-service fruit farms to get tourists involved in growing and picking fruits . The reasons are as follows.
Firstly, fruits like pears ,oranges and grapes grown this way sell well in the supermarket. Villagers should make the most of this advantage . Secondly, the farms can provide people with good chances to enjoy fresh air and experience physical labour. And lastly , tourists can get away from loud noise and busy city life , which I think will appeal to urban citizens.
I believe that more and more tourists will come to the countryside and enjoy the fruit farms, and the villages are sure to enjoy a bright future.
That’s all. Thank you for your attention.
