Twelve-year-old Mathew Flores is different from other kids. He loves junk mail, and these ads were the only reading materials he could find. Once he asked his mailman if he could offer him some.

The question surprised the mailman. He asked the boy the reason, and then shared the story on Facebook. “Today while delivering mail, I saw a boy reading ads, and he asked me for more mail. In fact, he wants to go to the library, but his family is very poor and he doesn’t have money to take the bus.”

The mailman then asked his Facebook friends if they could give some books to the boy. He wrote, “Most kids want computers or mobile phones! But what he wants is books. It’s great to see his unusual wish, and you may have seen him smile when I said I could help him!” “He is counting on me,” he said. “So I am counting on you!”

The mailman thought the Facebook post might bring in 50 to 60 books. But it was passed on quickly. People from around the world, including the UK, Australia and India, have sent books. Hundreds of books have been delivered to the boy’s door, with hundreds more still on their way.

A very dangerous situation happened in California last week. More than 12 wildfires broke out in the state. Most of them began on October 8, in Northern California. They grew rapidly. The fires were made bigger by winds of up to 50 miles per hour and dry air in the area.

At least 20 people have been killed, the state government said. About 200 have been injured. At least 3,500 homes and businesses have been destroyed. About 50,000 people have been required to escape. Many left in a hurry, without time to take their personal things. “All the good stuff(东西)—I’m never going to see it again,” Jeff Okrepkie said. He escaped from his Santa Rosa home. It was destroyed soon after he left.

The fires burned through parts of eight counties(郡，县). These include Sonoma and Napa. The areas are important to California’s economy(经济). They are home to many of the state’s vineyards(葡萄园) and wineries(酿酒厂). In 2016, California’s wineries made more than $57 billion.

October is when wildfires usually produce the most ruins in California. But it is unusual for so many fires to start at once. Up to now, the government has not given a cause for any of the fires, many of which were still burning.

28．Why did the fires grow quickly?

A．Most of the fires began in October. B．12 fires happened at the same time.

C．The state government didn’t do anything. D．High-speed wind and dry air.

29．How many people have to leave their homes?

A．50,000. B．200. C．3,500. D．20.

30．What is the biggest loss for California’ s economy?

A．Homes have been destroyed. B．Wineries have been burned.

C．People have to leave their homes. D．Many people have been injured.

31．What is the cause of the fires?

A．The high-speed wind and dry air. B．Many fires started at once.

C．October produces the most ruins. D．The cause is not explained.

                                D

For people suffering from depression (抑郁), there’s an all-natural treatment they should use—getting more exercise. It could help fight depression, even if people have a genetic risk, new research shows.

For the study, researchers collected information from nearly 8,000 people and found those with related genes (基因) were more likely to have depression over the next two years after examining them. But that was less likely for people who were more active at the study’s start, even if they had a family history of depression. Higher levels of physical activity helped protect even those with the highest genetic risk of depression.

Both high-intensity (高强度) exercise and low-intensity activities were associated with a reduced risk of depression. Adding four hours of exercise a week could lower the risk of a new episode (一段经历) of depression by 17%, according to the study. “Our findings strongly suggest that, when it comes to depression, being physically active has the potential to remove the added risk of future episodes in individuals who are genetically risky,” said lead author Karmel Choi. “On average, about 35 additional minutes of physical activity each day may help people to reduce their risk and protect against future depression episodes.”

Depression is a common mental illness globally, with more than 264 million people affected. “Depression is so ubiquitous, and that underlines the need for effective approaches that can impact as many people as possible,” Choi said. And mental health and primary care providers can use the findings to advise patients that there’s something meaningful they can do to lower their risk of depression.

32．How did the researchers reach their conclusion?

A．By analyzing a mass of data.

B．By conducting genetic research.

C．By comparing various levels of activity.

D．By tracking the subjects for many years.

33．What does the study show about depression?

A．Physical activity betters medical treatment.

B．Exercise may decrease and prevent it.

C．Different levels of exercise intensity matter the same.

D．Exercising 35 minutes daily is the most effective treatment.

34．What does the underlined word “ubiquitous” in paragraph 4 mean?

A．Simple. B．Complex. C．Unusual. D．Common.

35．What is the purpose of the text?

A．To discuss a disease. B．To introduce a scientific study.

C．To analyze a genetic risk. D．To explain a phenomenon.

第二节 （共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分）

根据短文内容，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。

Are you someone who easily gets tired and doesn’t feel like doing anything? Do you label this kind of behavior as mere laziness?    36  

Feel disconnected from everything.

People experiencing exhaustion most commonly don’t feel like themselves anymore, don’t feel engaged by anything and constantly struggle with the sense of helplessness and inability to take back control of their lives.

Used to be motivated and passionate.

A clear difference between someone who’s worn out and someone who’s lazy is that the tired people used to have things they were passionate about.    37    And even hate doing anything because of how much they overworked themselves.

Become moody and annoyed.

Do you suddenly find yourself easily angry?    38    If you start to have trouble controlling your emotions, especially when it never used to be a problem for you, this might be the reason why.

   39  

One of the warning signs is that you start neglecting your self-care and socially keep away from others. You stop making an effort to dress up yourself or look good and you tend to spend most of your time by yourself doing nothing.

Changes happen gradually.

Studies show that exhaustion develops in five major stages, according to degrees of severity. The honeymoon phase, the onset of stress, chronic stress, exhaustion and habitual exhaustion. By the time you reach the final stage, exhaustion will make you suffer from depression and anxiety.    40  

A．Ignore your self-care.

B．Focus on warning signs.

C．Do you often feel emotionally out of control?

D．So it’s important to raise awareness about exhaustion.

E．But the lazy people don’t ever devote themselves to things.

F．However, they may now be struggling to find interest in anything.

G．Here are five signs to show you’re experiencing exhaustion rather than laziness.

China has once again showed its ability to change the world with its “four great new     56     (invent)” — high-speed rail, electronic payment, shared bicycles, and online shopping.

China’s new-generation high-speed train, the Fuxing Hao,     57     can travel at a speed of 350km/h, is now one of the     58     (fast) trains in the world. Besides high-speed rail, China     59     (improve) people’s lives in many other innovative (创新的) ways over the last ten years.

Bike sharing, for example, is not new itself. But China has made     60     much more convenient and popular both in China and overseas. The leading Chinese biking-sharing companies Mobike and Ofo are now operating in foreign countries such as Singapore and Britain.

And back in China,     61     (ride) a shared bike, you can stop to buy and eat whatever you want     62     (simple) with a tap on your phone. You could easily pay with your smart phone by     63     (scan) the seller’s QR code. Cashless payment has grown into     64     choice for Chinese people — even a pancake seller is using Alipay.

Besides, the four innovative ways of life are most appealing to youths from 20 countries taking part      65      the Belt and Road Initiative, and they wish their countries would emulate (效仿) China in terms of technological achievements.

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。

On a winter morning, we piled into our car and headed out to the county kennel (养狗场), We were going to get a dog. I pressed my nose against the car window and wondered what he would be like. Would he shake hands, roll over and run after little animals in the woods? Each passing fence post drew me nearer to my dream dog.

As our family walked into the kennel, among the chaos and noise, silence caught my eye. He was sitting quietly and confidently in a corner cage. When I approached, he lifted one of his feet between the bars, and I touched it carefully. A handwritten sign at the top of his cage read, “Shepherd (牧羊犬)”. Ten minutes later, he was sitting in the back seat of our car.

 “His name is Fritz,” my mother announced that night as we put a dog collar around his neck with our phone number and his name on it. Fritz adjusted quickly to life in his new home. Whenever guests arrived, he would run out to greet them. When we took our afternoon walks, he was a cheerful companion. The highlight of his day was when I came back, racing through the front door after school. He would slide through the entryway and then jump into my arms as if he had just won a great prize.

One Friday afternoon, my father declared that we were going out for the night. Each year we took a journey across the mountains to his hometown of Knoxville, Kentucky, for a day of sightseeing. As we loaded up the car, my father told me that the hotel where we would be staying did not allow dogs in. Therefore, Fritz wasn’t going with us.

As our car pulled away, Fritz watched from the edge of the yard with his tail waving quickly, as if to say, “Why are you leaving me alone?” Anyway, we set out. The next day when we came back home, it was already 6 pm.

注意：

1. 续写词数应为 150 左右;

建议信

Dear David,

I am sorry to hear that you have a problem with insomnia. To help you out, I’d love to offer you some advice.

First, it’s vital to form a healthy bedtime habit. You’d better not watch films for a long time or listen to music that excites you. Also, keeping a balanced diet plays a significant role in your good sleep. A cup of milk before bed may help you sleep sound through the whole night. More importantly, it’s a good idea to hold a positive attitude towards life instead of being anxious frequently.

I hope my advice is worth taking and will benefit you.

 Yours,

Li Hua

读后续写

Night fell but there was still no sign of Fritz. We went from neighbor to neighbor, house to house. Each shake of the head drove me to despair. “Please, bring Fritz home safe,” I wished lying in bed that night. But a week passed without him. Each afternoon I would rush out of school and run all the way home to ask if there was any news of Fritz. But when I burst through the door and into the house, I would be greeted only by silence and my mother’s sad smile.

Two weeks later, a call from a man brought us the great news. The man found the hungry and weak Fritz on the street and later got our phone number from the tag on him. Immediately, my father and I were on the way to fetching Fritz. The moment I climbed out of the car, Fritz ran toward me like a wild pig. He slipped and quickly got up and slipped again before he regained his balance and jumped into my arms. I held him tightly as he licked my face.
