9、ne huge secret that I kept for yearsI failed my driving test. I had never failed a test before, and had never even come close. Driving made me anxious, but my parents told me I had to. They signed me up for driving lessons. I had gotten a perfect score for my written permit exam, but getting behind

10、the wheel was a different story. But when October 30th rolled around, my pride set in. I wanted to be like everyone else at my school, showing off the brand new license theyd gotten. Looking back on that special day, I cant remember if I was nervous. What I do remember is starting the test, pausing

11、at a stop sign after a few seconds, and being asked by the instructor to pull over. I had received an auto-fail since my pause was indeed a pause and not a real stop. I wasnt upset that I was leaving without a license, but I was scared everyone would know that I had failed. So when I got to class，I

12、told everyone I didnt want to take the test on my birthday. One Friday a month later, I went to the test spot again and passed. Later that night I drove for the first time by myself, which brought to me an amazing feeling Ive never experiencedbut still, I couldnt imagine ever telling anyone the trut

17、. Thankfully, Good Housekeeping has suggested some tips to prevent yourself from crying while trying to cut up an onion. According to the findings from the Institute, putting onions in a fridge 30 minutes before cutting can prevent the annoying hurt, as the cold stops tear-jerking(催泪的) gas from bein

18、g produced. Another way to reduce the gas released by the onion is to put it in water for a while. Good Housekeeping recommends: “Cut the end off the onion and then put it straight into a bowl of water. The water will draw out the acid making you tear up less when you cut it. ”When an onion grows, i

19、t mixes with sulfur (硫) in the soil to create a special mineral acid. When the onion is cut into pieces, it reacts and creates a gas. As it reaches your face, this annoying gas causes the eyes to produce tears. The root is where the gasses are most concentrated, so it is recommended that this part o

20、f the onion be left out as you cut it to avoid uncomfortable eyes. Do this by cutting the vegetable in half down the middle, then cut off part of one side to create a flat surface. Then , place the onion with its flat surface down and cut it towards the root. Also, to reduce the gass effect on your

21、eyes , cut it next to a window or near a fan so the gas is blown away from your face. And take care to use a sharp knife; this will make it easier to move through the vegetable, causing fewer cells to be broken and less gas to be released as a result. 28.What is the effect of refrigerating the onion

22、 before cutting can .A. Changing its taste B. Making it easier to cut upC. Avoiding generation of the gas D. Helping the gases mix more quickly29. From the fourth paragraph, what happens when the onion is cut up?A. Some acid mineral is lost. B. The tear mixture is created. C. The sulfur inside it po

23、urs out. D. A chemical reaction produces a gas. 30. What does the underlined word“this”in paragraph 5 refer to?A. Producing more tears. B. Leaving the root uncut first. C. Promoting concentration. D. Making the onion more tasty. 31. The main purpose of the text is to .A. advise and explain B. examin

24、e and analyze C. argue and discuss D. present and compareDDo you ever wonder why trees begin to bud (发芽) earlier in some cities? Scientists finally found the answer but its not very pleasant. New science suggests a relationship between light pollution and the timing when trees produce buds, which si

25、gnals the arrival of the spring season.Light pollution is defined by the Lighting Research Center as the unwanted consequence of outdoor lighting such as street lights. Excessive (过多的) man-made light at night results in disturbed natural cycles, and also prevents the observation of stars and planets

26、 at night. But its effect on the environment goes beyond that.By studying some trees, researchers found out that trees that are more exposed to artificial lighting at night bud up to 7.5 days earlier than those at the natural nighttime setting. And they found out that light had a more significant ef

27、fect than temperature when the buds came out. The early budding may cause problems for insects, which feed on leaves, and the birds which then feed on them in turn. Professor Richard French - Constant, who helped lead the research, explained that more than the budding of trees, the study implies the

28、 danger to the balance of the ecosystem. “At the moment, caterpillars (毛毛虫) are timed to hatch to make the most of the opportunities to feed on freshly budded leaves, and birds hatch in time to feed on the young caterpillar,” he said.Migratory (迁徙的) birds are also negatively affected by light pollut

29、ion. The glare might confuse them and make them lose their flying sense. The phenomenon might explain why some birds accidentally knock into buildings.Such results stress the need to pursue studies that aim to measure the effect of light pollution. If the issue were left to continue, it is estimated

30、 that by 2100, spring would begin almost a full month earlier than it does today.32.What will happen if there is too much man-made light?A. Peoples eyesight will be damaged. B. The ecosystem will likely lose its balance.C. No stars or planets may be observed at night. D. Animals living habits may ch

31、ange suddenly.33.How does the early budding affect insects or plants?A. It will cause the rising number of insects. B. It could lead to trees growing fewer leaves.C. It may result in some insects going hungry. D. It might push insects to hatch more slowly.34.What does the author suggest in the last

32、paragraph?A. The effect of light pollution is destructive. B. The spring of 2100 will become much longer.C. Light pollution should be taken seriously. D. A further study on light pollution is scheduled.35.What is the suitable title for the passage?A. Why does spring come earlier in some cities? B. W

33、hy does light pollution need to be studied?C. How does trees early budding take place? D. How much light is “too much”?第二节(共5小题；每小题2分, 满分10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。Art is for everyone and it exists everywhere.
