第二部分：阅读理解（共两节，满分40分）
第一节（共15小题；每小题2分，满分30分）
阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出最佳选项。
[A]
The London Underground (The Tube)
The main source of public transport in London revolves around the Underground (or the Tube as it is known to Londoners).This network of 12 lines can get you to most places in the center of the city quickly.
It's almost necessary to get an Oyster Card or a Travelcard. Single tickets are priced starting at the intentionally absurd(荒谬的)price of £4.80(Zone1-3),if you pay cash. Using an Oyster Card, a single fare is £2.30 if you are traveling within the central Zone 1.
On hot days it is also advisable to take a bottle of water with you as Underground trains are not air-conditioned.
Last trains leave central London at around 00:30 weekdays,23:30 Sundays. First trains leave
the suburbs at around 5:00.
The Bus System
Outside the center of London, Tube Stations are farther apart, so buses help fill the gaps. Also, the bus offers a cheaper alternative, even if it is a slower journey.
Cash fares for London buses have been abolished-you cannot pay cash. A bus fare costs £1.50
if people only use buses, and the fare is capped at £4.40 per day for Oyster or contactless card users.
Light Rail and Trains
You can think of the Docklands Light Railway (DLR) and the Tramlink as extensions of the Underground, Travelcards purchased at Tube Stations in East London. The DLR connects with a number of the other train services (including connections at Tower Hill or Bank Stations) and can be used to reach Greenwich, Canary Wharf, and Stratford.
River Services
There are a number of different routes along the River Thames, The faster commuter services operate all day from Greenwich Pier to Embankment and from Putney and Chelsea harbour to Blackfriars during Peak Hours only. These routes will pass a number of places of interest including the Houses of Parliament and London Bridge. A return fare from Putney to Blackfriars will cost about 12 pounds.
National Rail
Once you leave Central London or if you are traveling South of the River Thames, the best public transport option will often be National Rail. There are numerous connections to the Rail System from the Tube. Travelcards can be used for travel on the National Rail (but not the Heathrow Express). Oyster cards can be used up to Zone 6 except certain services including Heathrow Express, Heathrow Connect and HS1.
21. When taking the London Underground, you __________________.
A. should buy tickets with cash
B. can go to any place in London quickly
C. can save more money with a single ticket
D. are advised to take a bottle of water along on hot days
22. If you use river services along the River Thames, you will pass_____________.
A. London Bridge B. Stratford
C. Canary Wharf D. Tower Hill
23. To travel South of the River Thames, it is recommended that you use___________.
A. the London Underground
B. the Bus System
C. the DLR and the Tramlink
D. National Rail

[B]
I never meant to be a teacher. I watched my mother over the years, and I knew it wasn't for
me.
Going back to school to learn French and then teach the language, our mother had changed
the center of her world when we were pre-teens.
I saw how hard our mother worked, the long hours she kept as she graded papers when we went to bed. I knew how worried she could be over her students when they were troubled and how much of their stress she took on herself.
What I didn't realize was this life she'd chosen offered her deep rewards.
As I grew up, I fell in love with a French-speaking Swiss man who asked me to marry him and move to Switzerland. Years later, when I found myself back in my hometown with a small child and a love of my second language, a chance arose for me to join my mother's world of education, and I accepted.
I landed in a primary school in Rocky Mount, North Carolina. From the first week, I knew I'd stick with teaching. This is the most challenging experience I've ever had, and absolutely the best. I teach French, and I have never felt so much excitement as when I receive smiles from children, or praise from other teachers.
Most of my students have not traveled outside the town where they live, and for some, a trip to the city museum proves the most adventurous experience in their lives.If I could somehow open the world to these children, and if I could push them a bit, to dream of living in a bigger world, they may work harder and maybe one day venture beyond their neighborhood.
I work late into each night creating lessons and activities for the following day, trying to come up with ways to attract my students and connect them to the larger world. I also plan to go back to school for further study so that I can also teach science, math, social studies, reading and writing.

B. She wasn't sure if she could do it well.
C. Her mother wanted her to do something else.
D. It would take up too much of her time and energy.
25. When did the author fall in love with teaching?
A. When she had her own child.
B. Immediately after she started teaching.
C. During the time when she lived abroad.
D. When she learnt about her students’dreams.
26. What can we learn about the author’s students?
A. They work hard and dream big.
B. Most of them come from poor families.
C. They knew nothing about French in the beginning.
D. Their lives are mostly limited to their hometown.
27. What does the author want to do in the near future?
A. Work in her mother's school.
B. Receive further education in teaching.
C. Teach more languages besides French.
D. Experiment with new teaching methods.

[C]
It might sound like 1.5 million penguins are a hard thing to miss. However, that is indeed the case with this super-colony of Adélie penguins who have managed to conceal themselves for many years in the Danger Islands of Antarctica. The far-away, difficult to reach land is always circled by thick ice. It was, therefore, believed to be uninhabitable(不适宜居住的)and scientists
paid little attention to it.
However in 2014, when Stony Brook University scientist Heather Lynch was examining pictures of the islands, she noticed what appeared to be penguin waste. To find out what was happening, Lynch planned an expedition(探险) with a team that included researchers.
After several months of preparation, the researchers reached the Danger Islands in December 2015.To their joy ,they were greeted by hundreds of thousands of the nesting birds. Through several days of hard work, the researchers came to the conclusion that the islands are home to over 1.5 million penguins. The discovery is particularly exciting given that on the West Antarctic Peninsula, Adélie penguins numbers are dropping rapidly. With the new additions, scientists now say there are over four million known pairs of the birds in Antarctica.
In the study, published in Scientific Reports on March 2,2018,the scientists said one of the things that surprised them about the newly-found penguins was their nesting habits. Unlike other Adélie penguins who nest in a circle to protect themselves, the Danger Islands birds seem to have no such fear and prefer nesting separately. And thanks to the pinkish waste, the researchers know the penguins diet is mainly made up of shrimp(虾).
“This exciting discovery shows us just how much more there still is to learn about this amazing animal, ”said Rod Downie, head of the polar programs at the World Wildlife Foundation (WWF).“But it also reminds us to protect the waters off the coast of Antarctica to safeguard Adélie penguins from both overfishing and global warming.”
28. What does the underlined word “conceal” in Paragraph 1 mean?
A. Hide. B. Protect.
C. Control. D. Support.
29. How was Heather Lynch' s expedition?
A. Interesting. B. Unexpected.
C. Fruitful. D. Disappointing.
30. How do the newly-found penguins differ from other Adélie penguins?
A. In their diet. B. In their appearance.
C. In their nesting habits. D. In their way of communication.
31. What is the author s purpose in writing this text?
A. To report a discovery.
B. To record an expedition.
C. To introduce Adélie penguins.
D. To call on people to protect penguins.

[D]
It might sound like a terrible dream, but a new design from Dubai-based airline Emirates plans to remove windows from airplanes. Instead of real-life views of clouds and sky, first-class passengers will look out of “virtual(虚拟的)windows,” enjoying projected views of the world passing by. Emirates' “windows” use real-time high-tech camera technology to provide virtual views of the outside world.
Saj Ahmad, Chief Analyst at Strategic Aero Research says, “Windowless airplanes sound great, however, in reality, it won't happen for a number of reasons. For starters, in the event of an emergency, people in the plane often need to look out for reference points. Having visual awareness(视觉意识)is important and in a windowless jet, they don't exist-especially if there is an electrical fault which then means that the ‘electric' windows do not work and you can't see outside. ”Ahmad was also concerned about passenger comfort.“Passengers simply do love the natural view outside,” he says.“There are also other problems -- the change involved would certainly require new tests.”
Other futuristic airplane designs are going the opposite way. Boeing’s Dreamliner -- its most modern design -- features large windows. Airbus has also designed a plane with transparent(透明的)walls that is presented at the 2011 Paris Air Show. Embraer has planned the Kyoto cabin, designed for its Lineage 1000E aircraft, which features large windows running along the majority of the walls of the cabin.
There could also be a move towards pilotless planes in the future -- but Ahmad applies his doubts about windowless planes to drone-flown(无人驾驶的)planes too.“The idea of windowless planes is possible -- that doesn't mean it will happen,” says Ahmad. “The same applies to drone technology -- but that doesn't mean that tomorrow we're suddenly going to see all airplanes being flown without pilots.”
32. What will Emirates' new planes be like?
A. They will be pilotless.
B. They will have open windows.
C. They will present outside views on virtual windows.
D. They will provide all passengers with windowless experiences.
33. What does Saj Ahmad think of the virtual windows?
A. Useful. B. Expensive.
C. Impractical. D. Comfortable.
34. How is the third paragraph developed?
A. By giving examples.
B. By making comparisons.
C. By following space order.
D. By explaining cause and effect.
35. What is the future of drone technology according to Saj Ahmad?
A. It needs more skilled engineers.
B. It will take time to develop.
C. It will be widely applied.
D. It is promising.

Three uncommon methods for a better sleep
You left your phone on the bedside table. A friend sent texts at midnight only to kill time. You switched your phone to the do-not-disturb setting. Your phone stayed silent with no unwanted text. Your sleep returned to normal. 36 Fortunately , you don't have to rely on sleeping pills to guarantee the quality of your night.
l Dinner with your family.
37 Those who are unable to sleep through the night feel disconnected from their family. They are more likely to have difficulty falling asleep and experience severe headaches more often than the connected ones. So, communicating with family members over dinner may improve sleep quality, although the link between loneliness and sleep quality is still under research.

Is your sleep interrupted by urgent bathroom visits? As many as three out of five adults suffer from this. Many lifestyle changes may help: drinking no more than ten cups of water daily, avoiding caffeine and alcohol after midday, and drinking less soup at dinner. 39
l Lower your screen light.
Up to 60% of adults stay up late using social media and feel sleepy the next day. Although experts are against phones in the bedroom, it doesn't work for adults wanting to feel connected. But the blue light from the screen secretly affects people's sleep. 40 In this way, the body is discouraged from falling asleep. That's why the brightness of the screen should be at a proper level.
A. Change your lifestyle.
B. Control your water intake.
C. Family connection has effects on night-time rest.
D. A spoiled nightly rest is the last thing people want.
E. These methods help you avoid awakenings at night.

Text 10
A new technology is closer to becoming normal for many people in the world. The ability for a computer to recognize a person's face is changing the way we do things. Recognizing faces could replace usual security features like passwords,for example. Computer programs can use information from security cameras to catch people doing crimes.(17)The fast food chain KFC has already been using face ID at one of its stores in China.(18) Alibaba has set it up to help customers pay for their meals more easily. Some restaurants in America have started to do the same. In the UK, this technology will likely play an important role as the country continues to use less and less cash.(19)The new iPhone X uses face ID for its Apple Pay system. Many other companies like Microsoft have started to use it, too. Some people like the idea of quicker, more convenient payments and better security. But other people think of it as just another technology problem. They are worried that this will give some people another way to steal private information.(20)
