10、nce. These colorful and sweet jewels from British Columbias fields are little powerhouses of nutritional protection Of the common berries, strawberries are highest in vitamin C, although, because of their seeds, raspberries contain a little more protein (蛋白质), iron and zinc (not that fruits have muc

11、h protein). Blueberries are particularly high in antioxidants(抗氧化物质).The yellow and orange stone fruits, such as peaches are high in the carotenoids we turn into vitamin A and which are antioxidants. As for cherries (樱桃), they are so delicious who cares? However, they are rich in vitamin C When comb

12、ined with berries of slices of other fruits， frozen bananas make an excellent base for thick, cooling fruit shakes and low fat “ice cream”. For this purpose, select ripe bananas for freezing as they are much sweeter Remove the skin and place them in plastic bags or containers and freeze. If you like

13、, a squeeze of fresh lemon juice on the bananas will prevent them turning brownFrozen bananas will last several weeks, depending on their ripeness and the temperature of the freezer. If you have a juicer, you can simply feed in frozen bananas and some berries or sliced fruit. Out comes a “soft-serve

14、” creamy dessert, to be eaten right away. This makes a fun activity for a childrens party; they love feeding the fruit and frozen bananas into the top of the machine and watching the ice cream come out below21. What does the author seem to like about cherries? A. They contain protein B. They are hig

15、h in vitamin A.C. They have a pleasant taste. D. They are rich in antioxidants.22.Why is fresh lemon juice used in freezing bananas?A. To make them smell better.B. To keep their color.C. To speed up their ripening. D. To improve their nutrition.23.What is “a juicer” in the last paragraph? A. A desse

16、rt.B. A drink.C. A container. D. A machine.24.From which is the text probably taken？ _ A. A biology textbook B. A health magazine. C. A research paper. D. A travel brochureBIn recent years, much of the sea ice that polar bears use as a hunting platform for seal meals has melted, forcing some bears -

17、 particularly young males-farther north or onto land, where they are not as skilled at hunting. When stuck on land for month, a polar bear typically is forced to survive on its own fat reserves The bears were listed earlier this year as a threatened species under the US Endangered Species Act as pop

18、ulations have declined. Meanwhile, snow geese are booming near the western Hudson Bay, and there are in fact too many of them. Their eggs can be a good food source. The geese nest on tundra (冻原；苔原) that some bears have retreated to. “Over 40 years, six subadult（接近成年的）male bears were seen among snow

19、goose nests, and four of them were sighted after the year 2000,” says Robert Rockwell.“Ive seen a subadult male eat goose eggs whole or press its nose against the shell, break it, and eat the contents.” Ice is melting, on average, 0.72 days earlier each year in the region studied. Snow geese are hat

20、ching eggs about 0.16 days sooner each year, according to Rockwell and his graduate student Linda Gormezano. Current trends indicate that the arrival of polar bears will correspond to the average hatching period in 3.6 years, and egg consumption could become a viable option, which the researcher con

21、cluded in a statement released today A polar bear, the largest land carnivore（食肉动物）, would need to consume the eggs of 43 nests to replace the energy gained from the average day of hunting seals, but Rockwell and his colleagues figure that while many polar bears may starve in coming years, the resou

22、rceful animals just might survive disappearance. Polar bears survived a warm period about 125，000 years ago，when sea level was 12 to 18 feet higher than it is now and trees lived above the Arctic Circle， the scientists point out. “Theyve been through the warm period before,” Rockwell said The polar

23、bears potential movement to a diet of more eggs brought to mind a quote by Ilkoo Angutikjuak, an Inuit who lives in the Canadian province of Nunavut, in the February 2008 issue of Natural History magazine, Rockwell said. Angutikjuak said, “The animals will adapt. Ive heard that because they depend o

24、n sea ice, polar bears will disappear, but I dont believe it. They are very adaptable. As the sea ice changes, polar bears might get skinnier and some might die, but I dont think they will disappear.”25.What can we infer about the polar bears from the passage？A. They have a strong ability to survive

25、 B. They tend to withdraw from the tundraC. Their hunting skills have declined sharply. D. Their main food source is goose eggs now.26.What does the underlined word “viable” in Paragraph 4 mean? A. Challenging. B. Practical. C. Destructive. D. Outdated. 27.Which of the following statements does Rock

26、well agree with？ A. Goose eggs are adequate for polar bears.B. Polar bears food variety is relatively limited.C. Polar bears might adapt to the global warming.D. Many polar bears will starve to death in future.C This is a time of year when high school students and their families are thinking hard ab

27、out college. As seniors, juniors, and parents identify their top choices, discussions typically focus on the college itself. Is the institution small or large? How strong are the academics? What is the social life like? Do I like the campus? Such considerations are important, but they can cover the

28、all-important question: Where will these college years lead? Applicants should think seriously about which college on their list can best prepare them for the real world. They should look for campuses that offer well- structured programs to help them form a direction for their lives and develop the

29、capacity to take steps along that path. One of the most striking recent phenomena about college graduates in America has been the “boomerang” student: the young person who goes away to college, has a great experience, graduates, and then moves back home for a year or two to figure out what to do wit

30、h his or her life. This pattern has left many graduatesand their familieswondering whether it makes sense to spend four or more years at college, often at great expense, and finish with no clear sense of who they are or what they want to do next. The trend points to one of the great shortcomings of

31、many of our nations leading colleges and universities. Structured opportunities to think about life after graduation are rare. The formal curriculum focuses almost universally on the academic disciplines of the arts and sciences. Advising on how various majors connect to pathways into the workplace

32、is typically haphazard (无条理). Career planning offices are often shorthanded and marginal (不重要) to college life. It doesnt need to be this way, and in recent years some of the countrys top colleges have enriched their academic offerings with opportunities for students to gain real-world experiences.2

33、8.According to the author, what do typical discussions on college choices ignore?A. The function of college education in employment. B. The difficulty in finding jobs after graduation.C. High school students interests. D. The academics of college.29.Which accounts for the “trend” mentioned in the te

34、xt?A. Students failing to behave themselves. B. Parents overprotecting their children.C. Students choosing majors blindly. D. Schools lacking proper guidance.30.What will be probably discussed in the following paragraph?A. Recipes for academic achievements. B. Good academic programs in college.C. Ac

35、ademic tips for college students. D. Disadvantages of present college courses.31.Whats the best title for the text?A.A good way to choose a college. B.A new trend in top colleges.C. Connect subjects with life beyond college. D. Make college one of lifes richest experiences. DHumans are social animal

36、s. They live in groups all over the world. As these groups of people live apart from other groups, over the years and centuries they develop their own habits and ideas, which are different from other cultures. One important particular side of every culture is how its people deal with time. Time is n

37、ot very important in nonindustrial societies. The Nuer people of East Africa, for example, do not even have a word TIME that is in agreement with the abstract thing we call time. The daily lives of the people of such nonindustrial societies are likely to be patterned around their physical needs and

38、natural events rather than around a time schedule (时间表) based on the clock. They cook and eat when they are hungry and sleep when the sun goes down. They plant crops during the growing seasons and harvest them when the crops are ripe. They measure time not by a clock or calendar (日历), but by saying

39、that an event takes place before or after some other event Frequently such a society measures days in terms of sleeps or longer periods in terms of moons. Some cultures, such as the Eskimos of Greenland measure seasons according to the migration of certain animals Some cultures which do not have a w

40、ritten language or keep written records have developed interesting ways of telling time. For example, when several Australian aborigines want to plan an event for a future time, one of them places a stone on a cliff or in a tree. Each day the angle of the sun changes slightly. In a few days, the ray

41、s of the sun strike the stone in a certain way. When this happens, the people see that the agreed-upon time has arrived and the event can take place. In contrast (成对比), exactly correct measurement of time is very important in modern, industrialized societies. This is because industrialized societies

42、 require the helpful efforts of many people in order to work. For a factory to work efficiently (well, quickly and without waste), for example, all of the workers must work at the same time. Therefore, they must know what time to start work in the morning and what time they may go home in the aftern

43、oon. Passengers must know the exact time that an airplane will arrive or depart. Students and teachers need to know when a class starts and ends. Stores must open on time in order to serve their customers. Complicated（复杂的）societies need clocks and calendars. Thus, we can see that if each person work

44、ed according to his or her own schedule, a complicated society could hardly work at all.32.By saying Humans are social animals, the author means _.A. they live all over the worldB. they are different from other animalsC. they live in one place, district or country, considered as a wholeD. they are d

45、ivided into many groups33.Time is not very important in nonindustrial societies because people in those societies _.A. dont have the word TIME in their languagesB. dont get used to using clocks and other timepiecesC. dont measure time in their daily-lives around an exact time scheduleD. dont need to

46、 plan their daily lives around an exact time schedule34.The Australian aborigines way of “telling time” is based on _.A. the change of the sun rays B. the movement of the earth in relation to the sunC. the position of the stone D. the position of the tree or the cliff35.Which of the following might

47、be the best title for this passage?A. Time and Culture B. The Measurement of TimeC. Time Schedule and Daily LifeD. Clock, Calendar and Society三、七选五（本大题共5小题，每小题2分，共10分）Getting your children to study can be a little like getting them to eat their vegetables. 36_ Make a study time and have it at the sa

48、me time every day. This will help your kids to learn to schedule their day and will give them a sense of control over how they spend their time Allow them to study in blocks of time，such as for half an hour with a five-minute break in the middle. 37 Ideal（理想的）study times are after dinner or right af

49、ter school before dinner Never allow your children to study in front of the television, as that will encourage passive activity. 38 Youll also need to help your kids find the right place to studyAfter youve set up a good study time for little learners，set up a good place where they can get those cre

50、ative juices flowing 39 Make sure there is a table or a desk and a comfortable chair. 40 This includes helping them out with their homework sometimes and being there for them with the answers to any questionsThe input you give your children during study periods will help form a bond and help make st

51、udying enjoyable.A. Pick a place where your children can study properly. B. Hold them to the schedule they create for themselves.C. Finally，spend time with your kids when theyre studying. D.

Compared with other forms of writing, it is shorter and

61、 takes 62 (little) time. It can help us to develop the habit of thinking in English. If we persist (坚持) in this practice, gradually well learn how to express ourselves in English.

63、 and a Chinese English dictionary within easy reach. Whenever something beats us, we can first put it down in our notebook and then consult our dictionary.

Between 2001 and 2016, the amount of time most people sit down every day increased. Teenagers spent about 7 hours per day sitting, but it went up an hour by the

90、end of the study in 2016. (19) Adults went from 5.5 hours to 6.5 hours. Researchers also found that most of the people in the study spent at least 2 hours a day sitting and watching TV or videos. Elderly people had the highest number of TV watchers, at 84 percent. (20) Even 62 percent of children under 12 spent that much time watching shows each day. Sitting too much time is related to health problems like being very fat and having heart problems. (17) 高考资源网版权所有，侵权必究！
