Some libraries use unique architecture to encourage visitors to settle down with a new book, or use mobile libraries to bring books to hard-to-reach populations. No matter how they achieve it, these novel libraries are keeping the magic of reading alive.
Beach Library (Albena, Bulgaria)
Reading a book on the beach is a classic, and in Bulgaria, one library encourages tourists to do just that. The white, weather-resistant shelves, lined up not far from the surf, hold 6,000 books in 15 languages so every visitor can find the perfect beach read to enjoy while soaking up the sun’s rays.
The Camel Library Service (North Eastern Province, Kenya)
To combat (防止，减轻) low literacy rates in the desert of Kenya, the government created a mobile library composed of nine camels bringing books to villages. The library travels four days a week serving the region’s people. Currently the service focuses on children, but with more funding they plan to increase their reach both in distance and the titles they carry.
Bishan Library (Singapore)
Built in 2006, this library is meant to invoke (在脑海中唤起) a modern glass treehouse. Glass pods (吊舱) of varying colors stick out of the building randomly to create comfortable yet airy corners for reading throughout the building. At the same time, a more open-plan children’s room on the basement level invites interaction while preventing noise from going up and disturbing those concentrating in the high places above.
Seikei University Library (Tokyo, Japan)
Libraries are usually known for their quiet atmosphere, but this one encourages conversation. Pritzker Prize-winner Shigeru Ban designed the library with space-age, free standing soundproofed pods to respect those who need uninterrupted study, while also being conducive (有助于) to other methods of learning.
Macquarie University Library (Sydney, Australia)
A surprising combination of the cutting edge and sustainability this building was made from recycled materials, features a green roof, and was designed to imitate the look of a eucalyptus tree (桉树). It is also state of the art, using robot cranes to bring requested books to the front desk.
36. In the Beach Library, visitors can________.

The library travels four days a week serving the region’s people. Currently the service focuses on children, but with more funding they plan to increase their reach both in distance and the titles they carry.(为了解决肯尼亚沙漠地区的低识字率问题，政府创建了一个由九头骆驼组成的移动图书馆，将书籍带到村庄。该图书馆每周外出四天，为该地区的人们服务。目前，这项服务主要面向儿童，但随着资金的增加，他们计划扩大服务的覆盖范围，增加服务的内容)”可知，关于the Camel Library Service我们了解到“它提高了肯尼亚沙漠地区的识字率。”故选B。
【38题详解】
细节理解题。根据Bishan Library (Singapore)中“At the same time, a more open-plan children’s room on the basement level invites interaction while preventing noise from going up and disturbing those concentrating in the high places above. (与此同时，地下室的一个更开放的儿童房邀请互动，同时防止噪音上升，干扰那些集中在高处的人)”可知，Bishan Library特殊之处是“它有一个单独的儿童阅读区。”故选C。
【39题详解】
推理判断题。根据Seikei University Library (Tokyo, Japan)中“Libraries are usually known for their quiet atmosphere, but this one encourages conversation.

(图书馆通常以其安静的氛围而闻名，但这家图书馆鼓励交谈。普利兹克奖得主坂茂设计了太空时代的独立隔音舱，以尊重那些需要不间断学习的人，同时也有利于其他学习方法)”可知，“Seikei University Library”图书馆是学习小组和热烈讨论的理想场所。故选C。
【40题详解】
细节理解题。根据Bishan Library (Singapore)中“Built in 2006, this library is meant to invoke (在脑海中唤起) a modern glass treehouse.(这座图书馆建于2006年，旨在唤起现代玻璃树屋的灵感)”和Macquarie University Library (Sydney, Australia)中“A surprising combination of the cutting edge and sustainability, this building was made from recycled materials, features a green roof, and was designed to imitate the look of a eucalyptus tree (桉树). (这座建筑是前沿和可持续性的惊人结合，由回收材料制成，具有绿色屋顶，并模仿桉树的外观)”可知，Bishan Library和Macquarie University Library的共同点是“他们的设计都与树木有关”。故选B。
B
My almost 6-year-old son is currently crazy about Star Wars and Harry Potter. I know he’s young, but the movies and books bring up topics for us to sort through all the time—tough topics. A good chance for me! We read the books together; we watch the movies together. We’ve talked about many things that some parents of a 5-year-old might not talk about, but I want to have these conversations with my son.
Today it was rainy and when the baby took her nap, I allowed him to watch a Star Wars movie as a reward for being so kind this morning to his sister who was feeling a little unhappy. As I was folding laundry, I said to him, very casually, “Wow, that Darth Vader really makes me sick.” My son chided (指责) me, “Mama, Darth Vader has good in him. I know he’s on the dark side, but he isn’t all bad.” This launched us into a conversation about good versus evil and how goodness can be found in anyone if we only look hard enough.
For the past week, I feel like I have been tested with various examples of people simply not being nice. And some people were rude for no apparent reason. A nurse was impatient with me on the phone when I called for a prescription. Little ears were listening in on all of those instances and after doing my best to be nice on the phone call with the nurse, I hung up and said to my husband, “Wow, what was wrong with her? She was so rude.” My boy said, “Mama, we all have a bad day. Be nice to her and she might be nice to you back.” This child teaches me lessons every day, and all we can do is treat people with kindness, as hard as it might be.
The nurse was probably exhausted from taking sick calls and maybe she simply needed a coffee break. I do know that those people were not on their best behavior or showing their best side but how many of us have been in those exact shoes? We all act in haste. We all speak in haste. We all do things we regret. And, if we were lucky, we were met with kindness instead of anger in return for our outburst.

Every year millions of breeding monarch butterflies in the US and southern Canada search for milkweed plants on which to lay their eggs. Concern over decreasing habitat has urged conservationists to create monarch-friendly spaces along roadsides, which are more than enough—within the butterflies’ range and usually publicly owned. But traffic noise stresses monarch caterpillars out, a new study finds. They eventually do become desensitized (使不再敏感) to it —but that might cause trouble to them later on, too.
Noise pollution is known to affect the lives of birds, whales and other creatures. But until recently, scientists have never tested whether it leads to a stress response in insects. When Andy Davis, a conservation physiologist at the University of Georgia, noticed online videos of roadside monarch caterpillars apparently moving with short quick movements from side to side or up and down as cars came by, he wondered how the constant noise might affect them. Davis built a special caterpillar heart monitor, fitting a small sensor into microscope to precisely measure monarch caterpillars’ heart rates as they listened to recordings of traffic sounds in the laboratory.
The hearts of caterpillars exposed to highway noise for two hours beat 17 percent faster than those of caterpillars in a silent room. But the heart rates of the noise—exposed group returned to baseline levels after hearing the traffic sounds nonstop for their entire 12-day development period, Davis and his colleagues reported in May in Biology Letters. “This desensitization could be problematic when the caterpillars become adults,” says Davis. A rapid stress response is vital for monarch butterflies on their two-month journey to spend winters in Mexico, as they narrowly escape predators and fight wind currents.
Whether a noisy developmental period reduces monarchs’ survival rates remains unknown notes Ryan Norris, an ecologist at the University of Guelph in Ontario, who was not involved in the study. But in any case, he believes roadside habitats almost certainly drive up the butterflies’ death rates as a result of crashes with cars. “There are so many potential road habitats for monarchs and other insects—it would be such a nice thing to take advantage of,” Norris says. “But you just can’t get around the traffic. I think roads and monarchs just don’t mix.”
46. Why did conservationists create monarch-friendly spaces along roadsides?
A. Because they concerned over decreasing monarch habitat.
B. Because it was vital for the monarch to grow quickly.
C. Because they were urged to make an experiment.
D. Because it was good for the monarch to migrate.
47. What inspired Andy Davis to explore the effect of noise on monarch caterpillars?
A. There had been little research on monarch caterpillars.
B. Videos showed cars crashed into monarch caterpillars.
C. There was no such record of monarch caterpillars’ heart rates.
D. He found that monarch caterpillars shook with cars moving by.
48. According to Andy Davis, what might happen to monarch butterflies when exposed to traffic noise?
A. They are likely to need more time to develop.
B. They are likely to lose their way on their journey.
C. They are more likely to die before they become adults.
D. They are more likely to be killed and eaten in their migration.
49. Which of the following statements is Ryan Norris most likely to agree with?
A. Monarchs’ survival rates are decreasing each year.
B. People should avoid building roadside habitats for insects.
C. More capital is needed to study monarchs’ developmental periods.
D. Butterflies’ rising death rates have nothing to do with moving cars.
50. Which is the most suitable title for the passage?
A. The Relationships Between Monarch Butterflies and Highway
B. The Effects of Highway Noise on Monarch Butterflies
C. The Changes of Monarch Butterflies Along Highway
D. The Benefits of Protecting Monarch Butterflies
【答案】46. A 47. D 48. D 49. B 50. B
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍了公路上行驶中的车辆造成的噪音对黑脉金斑蝶的影响：黑脉金斑蝶毛虫如果在噪声中度过发育期，导致对声音脱敏，不再产生快速的应激反应，最终在越冬之旅中可能会遭遇杀身之祸。
【46题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段第二句“ Concern over decreasing habitat has urged conservationists to create monarch-friendly spaces along roadsides, which are more than enough—within the butterflies’ range and usually publicly owned. (出于对栖息地减少的担忧，环保人士敦促他们在路边创造对黑脉金斑蝶友好的空间，这些空间在蝴蝶的活动范围内，通常是公有的，且绰绰有余。)”可知，自然资源保护主义者要在路边创造对黑脉金斑蝶友好的空间是出于对黑脉金斑蝶的栖息地在日益减少的担忧。故选A项。
【47题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段“When Andy Davis, a conservation physiologist at the University of Georgia, noticed online videos of roadside monarch caterpillars apparently moving with short quick movements from side to side or up and down as cars came by, he wondered how the constant noise might affect them. Davis built a special caterpillar heart monitor, fitting a small sensor into microscope to precisely measure monarch caterpillars’ heart rates as they listened to recordings of traffic sounds in the laboratory. (乔治亚大学的保护生理学家安迪·戴维斯在网上看到在汽车经过时路边的黑脉金斑蝶毛虫会明显地左右或上下快速移动的视频，他想知道持续不断的噪音会对它们产生什么影响。戴维斯制造了一种特殊的毛虫心脏监测器，在显微镜上安装了一个小传感器，当它们在实验室里听交通声音录音时，可以精确测量帝王蝶的心率。)”可知，安迪·戴维斯发现黑脉金斑蝶毛虫在汽车经过时有明显颤抖，这个现象启发他去探索噪音对黑脉金斑蝶毛虫的影响。故选D项。
【48题详解】
推理判断题。根据倒数第二段最后两句“‘This desensitization could be problematic when the caterpillars become adults,” says Davis. A rapid stress response is vital for monarch butterflies on their two-month journey to spend winters in Mexico, as they narrowly escape predators and fight wind currents. (戴维斯说，当毛虫成年后，这种脱敏可能会产生问题。在长达两个月的墨西哥越冬之旅中，快速的应激反应对黑脉金斑蝶来说至关重要，因为它们要与气流作斗争，侥幸逃脱捕食者。)”可知，在噪音中成长的毛虫会对噪音脱敏，不再产生快速的应激反应，最终会使他们更有可能在越冬之旅的迁徙过程中被杀害、被捕食。故选D项。
【49题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段“Whether a noisy developmental period reduces monarchs’ survival rates remains unknown, notes Ryan Norris, an ecologist at the University of Guelph in Ontario, who was not involved in the study. But in any case, he believes roadside habitats almost certainly drive up the butterflies’ death rates as a result of crashes with cars. ‘There are so many potential road habitats for monarchs and other insects—it would be such a nice thing to take advantage of,’ Norris says. ‘But you just can’t get around the traffic. I think roads and monarchs just don’t mix.’ (安大略省圭尔夫大学的生态学家Ryan Norris没有参与这项研究，但他指出，嘈杂的发育期是否会降低黑脉金斑蝶的存活率尚不清楚。但无论如何，他认为路边栖息地几乎肯定会提高因汽车碰撞导致蝴蝶的死亡率上升。Norris说：‘对于黑脉金斑蝶和其他昆虫来说，有很多潜在的道路栖息地，这将是一件很好的事情。但你就是无法避开交通，我认为道路和黑脉金斑蝶不能混为一谈。’)”可知，Ryan Norris认为“在路边为昆虫建造栖息地”会导致很多黑脉金斑蝶可能撞上汽车而死，同时他认为纵然有潜在的道路栖息地，对于黑脉金斑蝶来说是好事，但是只要有交通，那就另当别论。Ryan Norris最有可能赞成“人们应该避免在路边为昆虫建造栖息地”，故选B项。
【50题详解】
主旨大意题。通读全文，尤其是第一段的最后两句“But traffic noise stresses monarch caterpillars out, a new study finds. They eventually do become desensitized (使不再敏感) to it —but that might cause trouble to them later on, too. (但一项新的研究发现，交通噪音会使帝王蝶毛虫筋疲力尽。他们最终会变得对它不敏感——但这也可能给他们以后带来麻烦。)”，根据倒数第二段最后一句“A rapid stress response is vital for monarch butterflies on their two-month journey to spend winters in Mexico, as they narrowly escape predators and fight wind currents.(在长达两个月的墨西哥越冬之旅中，快速的应激反应对黑脉金斑蝶来说至关重要，因为它们要与气流作斗争，侥幸逃脱捕食者。)”可知，本文是关于噪音对黑脉金斑蝶毛虫的影响，发育期在噪声中度过，导致对声音脱敏，不再产生快速的应激反应，最终在越冬之旅中给黑脉金斑蝶带来杀身之祸。The Effects of Highway Noise on Monarch Butterflies适合当标题，故选B项。
D
What is your calling? What is your purpose in life? What did you come to this world to do? Every day we read about how we should find our purpose and pursue it throughout our lives in order to find meaning and contentment. There are even scientific studies that show people who view their work as a calling rather than just a career or a job have a higher life and work satisfaction. So, what exactly is this calling?
I’ve personally struggled with this concept for many years. I knew that happiness not only came from a present state of joy but also from the pursuit of an objective that gave me something to pursue. That is, until I found myself feeling empty despite my achievement of those goals.
And as I reflected on these feelings of emptiness and boredom that had arisen despite my successes, I realized something. Meaning and satisfaction come from a personal devotion to what we do and the intrinsic (固有的) fulfillment we get from it. It has nothing to do with financial gain, social advancement or any other type of external reward or motivation. It is about doing something that we love. It is about focusing our efforts and spending our time on passions that light the spark inside of us and allow us to share with the world the unique gifts we possess.
I had never before stopped to think about what I found intrinsically rewarding or fulfilling. Financial gain and external recognition were pretty much the only drivers I knew. More so, I thought this calling meant having one passion we were born with to pursue relentlessly (不懈地).
So, I spent some years trying to find this long-lost purpose of mine. I discovered during that time passions I had no idea I even had. Yet, I wasn’t sure how to make them into my life purpose. I searched for an answer but couldn’t find it. It wasn’t until I came to understand the truths about our purpose in life that I was able to find my place in this world.
Our purpose can consist of various things that make us feel alive. As we grow and evolve throughout the different stages in our lives, we may discover new passions and desires that change our sense of purpose and calling.
We all have a longing for lives that give meaning to our existence. The difference lies in how we go about accomplishing this. We must each find our own “shine” and then shine on.
51. According to the passage, the calling refers to________.
A. one’s view about careers
B. a task one has to carry out
C. a life-long career one chooses
D. a strong desire or sense of duty to do a job
52. Which of the following belongs to the author’s previous drivers for finding fulfillment?
A. Financial gain and external recognition.
B. Pursuing passions relentlessly.
C. Discovering new passions.
D. Finding purpose in life.
53. What is the real purpose in life according to the author?
A. Trying to do everything that you can.
B. Trying to achieve your ambitious goals.
C. Doing meaningful things with your passion.
D. Doing something that can be successful easily.
54. According to the 5th paragraph, we know that________.
A. the author spent some years making changes
B. the author used to think he had no passion at all
C. the author didn’t know how to search for the life purpose
D. the author has known his passions since he started to work
55. What conclusion can be drawn from the passage?
A. It’s wise to give up discovering our one true passion.
B. It’s useless to pursue financial gain and external recognition.
C. It’s necessary to find our own calling and pursue it with vigor.
D. It’s important to share our passion with the world without stopping.
【答案】51. D 52. A 53. C 54. B 55. C
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇议论文。你的使命感是什么？你的人生目标是什么？你来到这个世界是为了做什么？本文主要探讨了人活着的意义。
【51题详解】

【54题详解】
细节理解题。根据第五自然段“I discovered during that time passions I had no idea I even had. Yet, I wasn’t sure how to make them into my life purpose. (在那段时间里，我发现了我甚至不知道自己有过的激情。然而，我不知道如何让它们成为我的人生目标。)”可知，根据第5段可知，作者过去认为他一点激情都没有。故选B。

阅读短文，按照题目要求用英语回答问题。
Monday started as an ordinary day for Shannon St. Onge, who lived in Pense, a town in Saskatchewan, Canada. She drove the approximately 25 kilometres east into Regina for work.
She kept an eye on highway conditions throughout the day. The weather network was warning of a blizzard. Expected start time was at around 7 pm, but she thought she could make it. “I bought a takeout for the kids, filled my gas tank, replaced my broken phone charger and then headed home around 5:30 before the storm hit,” she wrote in a Facebook post.
She took a dirt road because she thought it would be better for the winter driving conditions. Just as the pavement turned into gravel (碎石路), the wind picked up and visibility started to diminish (降低). She drove at a snail’s pace with her window rolled down, using the edge as her guide. After a while she realized she was lost. Whiteout conditions left her confused.
She could make out a sign that said “Bouvier Lane,” giving her some sense of where she was. Then she posted her location on the Pense community Facebook page in hopes that someone might be able to find her. That was when 80-year-old Andre Bouvier Sr. figured out her location. Despite his wife’s concern for his well-being, he decided to help her and headed out in the storm.
He bundled up (使穿得暖和), grabbed an LED flashlight and walked about half a kilometre into the raging storm to search for St. Onge’s car. To Bouvier’s surprise, he found two other cars with people who also needed help trapped alongside St. Onge. He led the seven lost people back to his home and welcomed them in for the evening.
Bouvier became a hero overnight. Bouvier didn’t want much credit for his efforts for a stranger in need. “Everybody would have done the same thing,” he said. “You don’t think about it; you just do it.”
56. Why did St. Onge still drive home although she heard about the approaching blizzard? (no more than 10 words)
________________
57. What made driving difficult according to Paragraph 3? (no more than 10 words)
________________
58. How do you understand the underlined word in Paragraph 5? (1 word)
________________
59. How did Bouvier help the lost people? (no more than 15 words)
________________
60. What do you think of Bouvier? Please explain. (no more than 20 words)
________________
【答案】56. Because she thought she could make it. / Because she thought she would get homeback before the blizzard.
57. That the wind picked up and visibility diminished.
58. Fierce. / Violent. / Strong. / Heavy. / Powerful.
59. He walked into the storm to find lost people and led them to his home.
60. Open/kindhearted. Because he took the risk of his own safety to help strangers.
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇记叙文。讲述了一位80岁的老人Andre Bouvier Sr.在暴风雨中去营救迷路的一位女子Shannon St. Onge，意外救了另外六人并留宿他们的暖心故事。
【56题详解】
考查细节理解。根据第二段“Expected start time was at around 7 pm, but she thought she could make it. ‘I bought a takeout for the kids, filled my gas tank, replaced my broken phone charger and then headed home around 5:30 before the storm hit,’ she wrote in a Facebook post.(预计开始时间是晚上7点左右，但她认为自己能赶上。她在脸书上写道：‘我给孩子们买了外卖，加满油，换了坏掉的手机充电器，然后在暴风雨来袭前5点半左右回家’)”可知，她做好了准备，计算好了时间，认为自己可以在暴风雨来临前成功到家。故答案为Because she thought she could make it. / Because she thought she would get home before the blizzard.
【57题详解】
考查细节理解。根据第三段“Just as the pavement turned into gravel (碎石路), the wind picked up and visibility started to diminish (降低). She drove at a snail’s pace with her window rolled down, using the edge as her guide. After a while she realized she was lost.(就在人行道变成砾石的时候，风开始刮起来，能见度开始下降。她摇下车窗，以边缘为向导，以蜗牛般的速度开车。过了一会儿，她意识到自己迷路了)”可知，是因为风越来越大，能见度降低是她开车行驶变得越来越难。故答案为That the wind picked up and visibility diminished.
【58题详解】
考查词义猜测。根据上文Shannon St. Onge在暴风雨中迷失方向及划线词下一句“To Bouvier’s surprise, he found two other cars with people who also needed help trapped alongside St. Onge.(令布维耶惊讶的是，他发现另外两辆车也有需要帮助的人被困在St. Onge旁边)”可知，那么多人因为暴风雨而迷路，由此可知，暴风雨非常猛烈。故答案为Fierce. / Violent. / Strong. / Heavy. / Powerful.
【59题详解】
考查细节理解。根据第四段“Despite his wife’s concern for his well-being, he decided to help her and headed out in the storm. (尽管他的妻子担心他的健康，他还是决定帮助她，并在暴风雨中出发了)”及第五段“He bundled up (使穿得暖和), grabbed an LED flashlight and walked about half a kilometre into the raging storm to search for St. Onge’s car. To Bouvier’s surprise, he found two other cars with people who also needed help trapped alongside St. Onge. He led the seven lost people back to his home and welcomed them in for the evening.(他穿上暖和的衣服，拿起一个LED手电筒，在狂风暴雨中走了大约半公里，寻找St. Onge的车。令布维耶惊讶的是，他发现另外两辆车也有需要帮助的人被困在St. Onge旁边。他把这七个迷路的人带回了自己的家，并欢迎他们在家里过夜)”可知。老人冒着暴风雨去找到迷路的人，并且把他们带回自己家过夜。故答案为He walked into the storm to find lost people and led them to his home.
【60题详解】
考查推理判断。根据第四段“Then she posted her location on the Pense community Facebook page in hopes that someone might be able to find her. That was when 80-year-old Andre Bouvier Sr. figured out her location. Despite his wife’s concern for his well-being, he decided to help her and headed out in the storm.(然后，她在Pense社区的Facebook页面上发布了自己的位置，希望有人能找到她。就在那时，80岁的老安德烈·布维耶发现了她的位置。尽管他的妻子担心他的健康，他还是决定帮助她，并在暴风雨中出发了)”及第五段“He led the seven lost people back to his home and welcomed them in for the evening.(他把这七个迷路的人带回了自己的家，并欢迎他们在家里过夜)”可知，老人自己年纪大，暴风雨又那么危险，老人去解救遇险的陌生人，并带他们回自己家过夜，可见老人心胸宽广，无私善良。故答案为Open/kindhearted. Because he took the risk of his own safety to help strangers.

Some libraries use unique architecture to encourage visitors to settle down with a new book, or use mobile libraries to bring books to hard-to-reach populations. No matter how they achieve it, these novel libraries are keeping the magic of reading alive.
Beach Library (Albena, Bulgaria)
Reading a book on the beach is a classic, and in Bulgaria, one library encourages tourists to do just that. The white, weather-resistant shelves, lined up not far from the surf, hold 6,000 books in 15 languages so every visitor can find the perfect beach read to enjoy while soaking up the sun’s rays.
The Camel Library Service (North Eastern Province, Kenya)
To combat (防止，减轻) low literacy rates in the desert of Kenya, the government created a mobile library composed of nine camels bringing books to villages. The library travels four days a week serving the region’s people. Currently the service focuses on children, but with more funding they plan to increase their reach both in distance and the titles they carry.
Bishan Library (Singapore)
Built in 2006, this library is meant to invoke (在脑海中唤起) a modern glass treehouse. Glass pods (吊舱) of varying colors stick out of the building randomly to create comfortable yet airy corners for reading throughout the building. At the same time, a more open-plan children’s room on the basement level invites interaction while preventing noise from going up and disturbing those concentrating in the high places above.
Seikei University Library (Tokyo, Japan)
Libraries are usually known for their quiet atmosphere, but this one encourages conversation. Pritzker Prize-winner Shigeru Ban designed the library with space-age, free standing soundproofed pods to respect those who need uninterrupted study, while also being conducive (有助于) to other methods of learning.
Macquarie University Library (Sydney, Australia)
A surprising combination of the cutting edge and sustainability this building was made from recycled materials, features a green roof, and was designed to imitate the look of a eucalyptus tree (桉树). It is also state of the art, using robot cranes to bring requested books to the front desk.

My almost 6-year-old son is currently crazy about Star Wars and Harry Potter. I know he’s young, but the movies and books bring up topics for us to sort through all the time—tough topics. A good chance for me! We read the books together; we watch the movies together. We’ve talked about many things that some parents of a 5-year-old might not talk about, but I want to have these conversations with my son.
Today it was rainy and when the baby took her nap, I allowed him to watch a Star Wars movie as a reward for being so kind this morning to his sister who was feeling a little unhappy. As I was folding laundry, I said to him, very casually, “Wow, that Darth Vader really makes me sick.” My son chided (指责) me, “Mama, Darth Vader has good in him. I know he’s on the dark side, but he isn’t all bad.” This launched us into a conversation about good versus evil and how goodness can be found in anyone if we only look hard enough.
For the past week, I feel like I have been tested with various examples of people simply not being nice. And some people were rude for no apparent reason. A nurse was impatient with me on the phone when I called for a prescription. Little ears were listening in on all of those instances and after doing my best to be nice on the phone call with the nurse, I hung up and said to my husband, “Wow, what was wrong with her? She was so rude.” My boy said, “Mama, we all have a bad day. Be nice to her and she might be nice to you back.” This child teaches me lessons every day, and all we can do is treat people with kindness, as hard as it might be.
The nurse was probably exhausted from taking sick calls and maybe she simply needed a coffee break. I do know that those people were not on their best behavior or showing their best side but how many of us have been in those exact shoes? We all act in haste. We all speak in haste. We all do things we regret. And, if we were lucky, we were met with kindness instead of anger in return for our outburst.
My son reminded me today to be kinder and gentler to the people I meet with. I’m going to try harder this week. I’m going to try to smile when met with a frown. Like he mentions, even Darth Vader has good in him and maybe he just needs a little sympathy.
41. How does the writer react to her son’s recent interest?
A. Using it as a chance to express her regret.
B. Trying to persuade him to change his mind.
C. Trying to help him develop some more hobbies.
D. Using it as a chance to have a deep talk with him.
42. Why did the author allow her son to watch a movie Star Wars?
A. Because it was a reward for his kindness.
B. Because her son loves Star Wars.
C. Because it was raining outside.
D. Because the baby was napping.
43. What did the author learn from her child?
A. How to be rude to people.
B. How to complain about others.
C. The importance of being kind to others.
D. The essential of asking for medical advice.
44. Which of the following words can be used to describe the author’s son?
A. Optimistic and calm.
B. Brave and enthusiastic.
C. Courageous and generous.
D. Considerate and sympathetic.
45. In the passage, the author intends to encourage people to________.
A. smile to those friendly to them
B. sympathize with those in trouble
C. find the good in others and treat them kindly
D. reward others’ kindness and help more people

Every year millions of breeding monarch butterflies in the US and southern Canada search for milkweed plants on which to lay their eggs. Concern over decreasing habitat has urged conservationists to create monarch-friendly spaces along roadsides, which are more than enough—within the butterflies’ range and usually publicly owned. But traffic noise stresses monarch caterpillars out, a new study finds. They eventually do become desensitized (使不再敏感) to it —but that might cause trouble to them later on, too.
Noise pollution is known to affect the lives of birds, whales and other creatures. But until recently, scientists have never tested whether it leads to a stress response in insects. When Andy Davis, a conservation physiologist at the University of Georgia, noticed online videos of roadside monarch caterpillars apparently moving with short quick movements from side to side or up and down as cars came by, he wondered how the constant noise might affect them. Davis built a special caterpillar heart monitor, fitting a small sensor into microscope to precisely measure monarch caterpillars’ heart rates as they listened to recordings of traffic sounds in the laboratory.
The hearts of caterpillars exposed to highway noise for two hours beat 17 percent faster than those of caterpillars in a silent room. But the heart rates of the noise—exposed group returned to baseline levels after hearing the traffic sounds nonstop for their entire 12-day development period, Davis and his colleagues reported in May in Biology Letters. “This desensitization could be problematic when the caterpillars become adults,” says Davis. A rapid stress response is vital for monarch butterflies on their two-month journey to spend winters in Mexico, as they narrowly escape predators and fight wind currents.
Whether a noisy developmental period reduces monarchs’ survival rates remains unknown notes Ryan Norris, an ecologist at the University of Guelph in Ontario, who was not involved in the study. But in any case, he believes roadside habitats almost certainly drive up the butterflies’ death rates as a result of crashes with cars. “There are so many potential road habitats for monarchs and other insects—it would be such a nice thing to take advantage of,” Norris says. “But you just can’t get around the traffic. I think roads and monarchs just don’t mix.”
46. Why did conservationists create monarch-friendly spaces along roadsides?
A. Because they concerned over decreasing monarch habitat.
B. Because it was vital for the monarch to grow quickly.
C. Because they were urged to make an experiment.
D. Because it was good for the monarch to migrate.
47. What inspired Andy Davis to explore the effect of noise on monarch caterpillars?
A. There had been little research on monarch caterpillars.
B. Videos showed cars crashed into monarch caterpillars.
C. There was no such record of monarch caterpillars’ heart rates.
D. He found that monarch caterpillars shook with cars moving by.
48. According to Andy Davis, what might happen to monarch butterflies when exposed to traffic noise?
A. They are likely to need more time to develop.
B. They are likely to lose their way on their journey.
C. They are more likely to die before they become adults.
D. They are more likely to be killed and eaten in their migration.
49. Which of the following statements is Ryan Norris most likely to agree with?
A. Monarchs’ survival rates are decreasing each year.
B. People should avoid building roadside habitats for insects.
C. More capital is needed to study monarchs’ developmental periods.
D. Butterflies’ rising death rates have nothing to do with moving cars.
50. Which is the most suitable title for the passage?
A. The Relationships Between Monarch Butterflies and Highway
B. The Effects of Highway Noise on Monarch Butterflies
C. The Changes of Monarch Butterflies Along Highway
D. The Benefits of Protecting Monarch Butterflies
【答案】46. A 47. D 48. D 49. B 50. B
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍了公路上行驶中的车辆造成的噪音对黑脉金斑蝶的影响：黑脉金斑蝶毛虫如果在噪声中度过发育期，导致对声音脱敏，不再产生快速的应激反应，最终在越冬之旅中可能会遭遇杀身之祸。
【46题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段第二句“ Concern over decreasing habitat has urged conservationists to create monarch-friendly spaces along roadsides, which are more than enough—within the butterflies’ range and usually publicly owned. (出于对栖息地减少的担忧，环保人士敦促他们在路边创造对黑脉金斑蝶友好的空间，这些空间在蝴蝶的活动范围内，通常是公有的，且绰绰有余。)”可知，自然资源保护主义者要在路边创造对黑脉金斑蝶友好的空间是出于对黑脉金斑蝶的栖息地在日益减少的担忧。故选A项。
【47题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段“When Andy Davis, a conservation physiologist at the University of Georgia, noticed online videos of roadside monarch caterpillars apparently moving with short quick movements from side to side or up and down as cars came by, he wondered how the constant noise might affect them. Davis built a special caterpillar heart monitor, fitting a small sensor into microscope to precisely measure monarch caterpillars’ heart rates as they listened to recordings of traffic sounds in the laboratory. (乔治亚大学的保护生理学家安迪·戴维斯在网上看到在汽车经过时路边的黑脉金斑蝶毛虫会明显地左右或上下快速移动的视频，他想知道持续不断的噪音会对它们产生什么影响。戴维斯制造了一种特殊的毛虫心脏监测器，在显微镜上安装了一个小传感器，当它们在实验室里听交通声音录音时，可以精确测量帝王蝶的心率。)”可知，安迪·戴维斯发现黑脉金斑蝶毛虫在汽车经过时有明显颤抖，这个现象启发他去探索噪音对黑脉金斑蝶毛虫的影响。故选D项。
【48题详解】
推理判断题。根据倒数第二段最后两句“‘This desensitization could be problematic when the caterpillars become adults,” says Davis. A rapid stress response is vital for monarch butterflies on their two-month journey to spend winters in Mexico, as they narrowly escape predators and fight wind currents. (戴维斯说，当毛虫成年后，这种脱敏可能会产生问题。在长达两个月的墨西哥越冬之旅中，快速的应激反应对黑脉金斑蝶来说至关重要，因为它们要与气流作斗争，侥幸逃脱捕食者。)”可知，在噪音中成长的毛虫会对噪音脱敏，不再产生快速的应激反应，最终会使他们更有可能在越冬之旅的迁徙过程中被杀害、被捕食。故选D项。
【49题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段“Whether a noisy developmental period reduces monarchs’ survival rates remains unknown, notes Ryan Norris, an ecologist at the University of Guelph in Ontario, who was not involved in the study. But in any case, he believes roadside habitats almost certainly drive up the butterflies’ death rates as a result of crashes with cars. ‘There are so many potential road habitats for monarchs and other insects—it would be such a nice thing to take advantage of,’ Norris says. ‘But you just can’t get around the traffic. I think roads and monarchs just don’t mix.’ (安大略省圭尔夫大学的生态学家Ryan Norris没有参与这项研究，但他指出，嘈杂的发育期是否会降低黑脉金斑蝶的存活率尚不清楚。但无论如何，他认为路边栖息地几乎肯定会提高因汽车碰撞导致蝴蝶的死亡率上升。Norris说：‘对于黑脉金斑蝶和其他昆虫来说，有很多潜在的道路栖息地，这将是一件很好的事情。但你就是无法避开交通，我认为道路和黑脉金斑蝶不能混为一谈。’)”可知，Ryan Norris认为“在路边为昆虫建造栖息地”会导致很多黑脉金斑蝶可能撞上汽车而死，同时他认为纵然有潜在的道路栖息地，对于黑脉金斑蝶来说是好事，但是只要有交通，那就另当别论。Ryan Norris最有可能赞成“人们应该避免在路边为昆虫建造栖息地”，故选B项。
【50题详解】
主旨大意题。通读全文，尤其是第一段的最后两句“But traffic noise stresses monarch caterpillars out, a new study finds. They eventually do become desensitized (使不再敏感) to it —but that might cause trouble to them later on, too. (但一项新的研究发现，交通噪音会使帝王蝶毛虫筋疲力尽。他们最终会变得对它不敏感——但这也可能给他们以后带来麻烦。)”，根据倒数第二段最后一句“A rapid stress response is vital for monarch butterflies on their two-month journey to spend winters in Mexico, as they narrowly escape predators and fight wind currents.(在长达两个月的墨西哥越冬之旅中，快速的应激反应对黑脉金斑蝶来说至关重要，因为它们要与气流作斗争，侥幸逃脱捕食者。)”可知，本文是关于噪音对黑脉金斑蝶毛虫的影响，发育期在噪声中度过，导致对声音脱敏，不再产生快速的应激反应，最终在越冬之旅中给黑脉金斑蝶带来杀身之祸。The Effects of Highway Noise on Monarch Butterflies适合当标题，故选B项。

What is your calling? What is your purpose in life? What did you come to this world to do? Every day we read about how we should find our purpose and pursue it throughout our lives in order to find meaning and contentment. There are even scientific studies that show people who view their work as a calling rather than just a career or a job have a higher life and work satisfaction. So, what exactly is this calling?
I’ve personally struggled with this concept for many years. I knew that happiness not only came from a present state of joy but also from the pursuit of an objective that gave me something to pursue. That is, until I found myself feeling empty despite my achievement of those goals.
And as I reflected on these feelings of emptiness and boredom that had arisen despite my successes, I realized something. Meaning and satisfaction come from a personal devotion to what we do and the intrinsic (固有的) fulfillment we get from it. It has nothing to do with financial gain, social advancement or any other type of external reward or motivation. It is about doing something that we love. It is about focusing our efforts and spending our time on passions that light the spark inside of us and allow us to share with the world the unique gifts we possess.
I had never before stopped to think about what I found intrinsically rewarding or fulfilling. Financial gain and external recognition were pretty much the only drivers I knew. More so, I thought this calling meant having one passion we were born with to pursue relentlessly (不懈地).
So, I spent some years trying to find this long-lost purpose of mine. I discovered during that time passions I had no idea I even had. Yet, I wasn’t sure how to make them into my life purpose. I searched for an answer but couldn’t find it. It wasn’t until I came to understand the truths about our purpose in life that I was able to find my place in this world.
Our purpose can consist of various things that make us feel alive. As we grow and evolve throughout the different stages in our lives, we may discover new passions and desires that change our sense of purpose and calling.
We all have a longing for lives that give meaning to our existence. The difference lies in how we go about accomplishing this. We must each find our own “shine” and then shine on.
51. According to the passage, the calling refers to________.
A. one’s view about careers
B. a task one has to carry out
C. a life-long career one chooses
D. a strong desire or sense of duty to do a job
52. Which of the following belongs to the author’s previous drivers for finding fulfillment?
A. Financial gain and external recognition.
B. Pursuing passions relentlessly.
C. Discovering new passions.
D. Finding purpose in life.
53. What is the real purpose in life according to the author?
A. Trying to do everything that you can.
B. Trying to achieve your ambitious goals.
C. Doing meaningful things with your passion.
D. Doing something that can be successful easily.
54. According to the 5th paragraph, we know that________.
A. the author spent some years making changes
B. the author used to think he had no passion at all
C. the author didn’t know how to search for the life purpose
D. the author has known his passions since he started to work
55. What conclusion can be drawn from the passage?
A. It’s wise to give up discovering our one true passion.
B. It’s useless to pursue financial gain and external recognition.
C. It’s necessary to find our own calling and pursue it with vigor.
D. It’s important to share our passion with the world without stopping.
【答案】51. D 52. A 53. C 54. B 55. C

阅读短文，按照题目要求用英语回答问题。
Monday started as an ordinary day for Shannon St. Onge, who lived in Pense, a town in Saskatchewan, Canada. She drove the approximately 25 kilometres east into Regina for work.
She kept an eye on highway conditions throughout the day. The weather network was warning of a blizzard. Expected start time was at around 7 pm, but she thought she could make it. “I bought a takeout for the kids, filled my gas tank, replaced my broken phone charger and then headed home around 5:30 before the storm hit,” she wrote in a Facebook post.
She took a dirt road because she thought it would be better for the winter driving conditions. Just as the pavement turned into gravel (碎石路), the wind picked up and visibility started to diminish (降低). She drove at a snail’s pace with her window rolled down, using the edge as her guide. After a while she realized she was lost. Whiteout conditions left her confused.
She could make out a sign that said “Bouvier Lane,” giving her some sense of where she was. Then she posted her location on the Pense community Facebook page in hopes that someone might be able to find her. That was when 80-year-old Andre Bouvier Sr. figured out her location. Despite his wife’s concern for his well-being, he decided to help her and headed out in the storm.
He bundled up (使穿得暖和), grabbed an LED flashlight and walked about half a kilometre into the raging storm to search for St. Onge’s car. To Bouvier’s surprise, he found two other cars with people who also needed help trapped alongside St. Onge. He led the seven lost people back to his home and welcomed them in for the evening.
Bouvier became a hero overnight. Bouvier didn’t want much credit for his efforts for a stranger in need. “Everybody would have done the same thing,” he said. “You don’t think about it; you just do it.”
56. Why did St. Onge still drive home although she heard about the approaching blizzard? (no more than 10 words)
________________
57. What made driving difficult according to Paragraph 3? (no more than 10 words)
________________
58. How do you understand the underlined word in Paragraph 5? (1 word)
________________
59. How did Bouvier help the lost people? (no more than 15 words)
________________
60. What do you think of Bouvier? Please explain. (no more than 20 words)
________________
【答案】56. Because she thought she could make it. / Because she thought she would get homeback before the blizzard.
57. That the wind picked up and visibility diminished.
58. Fierce. / Violent. / Strong. / Heavy. / Powerful.
59. He walked into the storm to find lost people and led them to his home.
60. Open/kindhearted. Because he took the risk of his own safety to help strangers.
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇记叙文。讲述了一位80岁的老人Andre Bouvier Sr.在暴风雨中去营救迷路的一位女子Shannon St. Onge，意外救了另外六人并留宿他们的暖心故事。
【56题详解】
考查细节理解。根据第二段“Expected start time was at around 7 pm, but she thought she could make it. ‘I bought a takeout for the kids, filled my gas tank, replaced my broken phone charger and then headed home around 5:30 before the storm hit,’ she wrote in a Facebook post.(预计开始时间是晚上7点左右，但她认为自己能赶上。她在脸书上写道：‘我给孩子们买了外卖，加满油，换了坏掉的手机充电器，然后在暴风雨来袭前5点半左右回家’)”可知，她做好了准备，计算好了时间，认为自己可以在暴风雨来临前成功到家。故答案为Because she thought she could make it. / Because she thought she would get home before the blizzard.
【57题详解】
考查细节理解。根据第三段“Just as the pavement turned into gravel (碎石路), the wind picked up and visibility started to diminish (降低). She drove at a snail’s pace with her window rolled down, using the edge as her guide. After a while she realized she was lost.(就在人行道变成砾石的时候，风开始刮起来，能见度开始下降。她摇下车窗，以边缘为向导，以蜗牛般的速度开车。过了一会儿，她意识到自己迷路了)”可知，是因为风越来越大，能见度降低是她开车行驶变得越来越难。故答案为That the wind picked up and visibility diminished.
【58题详解】
考查词义猜测。根据上文Shannon St. Onge在暴风雨中迷失方向及划线词下一句“To Bouvier’s surprise, he found two other cars with people who also needed help trapped alongside St. Onge.(令布维耶惊讶的是，他发现另外两辆车也有需要帮助的人被困在St. Onge旁边)”可知，那么多人因为暴风雨而迷路，由此可知，暴风雨非常猛烈。故答案为Fierce. / Violent. / Strong. / Heavy. / Powerful.
【59题详解】
考查细节理解。根据第四段“Despite his wife’s concern for his well-being, he decided to help her and headed out in the storm. (尽管他的妻子担心他的健康，他还是决定帮助她，并在暴风雨中出发了)”及第五段“He bundled up (使穿得暖和), grabbed an LED flashlight and walked about half a kilometre into the raging storm to search for St. Onge’s car. To Bouvier’s surprise, he found two other cars with people who also needed help trapped alongside St. Onge. He led the seven lost people back to his home and welcomed them in for the evening.(他穿上暖和的衣服，拿起一个LED手电筒，在狂风暴雨中走了大约半公里，寻找St. Onge的车。令布维耶惊讶的是，他发现另外两辆车也有需要帮助的人被困在St. Onge旁边。他把这七个迷路的人带回了自己的家，并欢迎他们在家里过夜)”可知。老人冒着暴风雨去找到迷路的人，并且把他们带回自己家过夜。故答案为He walked into the storm to find lost people and led them to his home.
【60题详解】
考查推理判断。根据第四段“Then she posted her location on the Pense community Facebook page in hopes that someone might be able to find her. That was when 80-year-old Andre Bouvier Sr. figured out her location. Despite his wife’s concern for his well-being, he decided to help her and headed out in the storm.(然后，她在Pense社区的Facebook页面上发布了自己的位置，希望有人能找到她。就在那时，80岁的老安德烈·布维耶发现了她的位置。尽管他的妻子担心他的健康，他还是决定帮助她，并在暴风雨中出发了)”及第五段“He led the seven lost people back to his home and welcomed them in for the evening.(他把这七个迷路的人带回了自己的家，并欢迎他们在家里过夜)”可知，老人自己年纪大，暴风雨又那么危险，老人去解救遇险的陌生人，并带他们回自己家过夜，可见老人心胸宽广，无私善良。故答案为Open/kindhearted. Because he took the risk of his own safety to help strangers.
