2、 Best friends may be priceless but the cost of keeping the relationship alive is ￡23,870.
According to a study, a BFF (Best Friend Forever) does not come cheap with devoted pals blowing ￡4,679 on birthday presents alone over a lifetime. And while it costs nothing to be a shoulder to cry on, big-hearted Britons go the extra mile and spend ￡168 on pick-me-ups (提神物品) to get their mate through a rocky patch (艰难时刻) like a breakup of a relationship.
There’s a further ￡242 spent on presents to show how much they mean from gifts bought on holiday to treats for no reason. And distance does not break up a close friendship as BFFs spend a whopping (巨大的) ￡18,000 on travel to see each other despite being miles apart because of university, jobs and marriage.
The study by cashback site TopCashBack found on average BFFs who wed can expect ￡431 spent on them and a further ￡283 on gifts when they have children. And they can rely on their pals to help out when they move house as they will obtain ￡127 worth of housewarming presents and takeaways as well as putting in a shift with the packing and unpacking.
The survey based on a friendship lasting 40 years found more than eight in ten adults with a BFF felt their friendships were worth every penny.
TopCashBack spokesperson Natasha Smith said, “Those friendships which stand the test of time are often the most important in our lives. However, they come at a cost. From train tickets once a month to flights and a new dress for a wedding on the Italian coast, the price paid for having a best mate can soon add up. But when we asked people to compare their friendship with the monetary investment (投资), only 14% thought their friendship was equal to their investment with the vast majority thinking it was worth more.”
1.What does the underlined word in Paragraph 2 mean?
A.Ambitious. B.Generous. C.Troublesome. D.Energetic.
2.To keep the relationship, where do BFFs spend most money?
A.Buying birthday presents. B.Cheering up a friend in low spirits.
C.Paying for holiday gifts and other treats. D.Going a particular distance to visit friends.
3.What is Natasha’s understanding of BFF friendship?
A.It's costly and unaffordable. B.It's expensive but worthwhile.
C.It's rewarding but hard to keep. D.It's changeable but worth possessing.
4.How is the passage developed?
A.By listing figures. B.By reasoning.
C.By analyzing causes. D.By making comparisons.
3、Your house may have an effect on your figure. Experts say the way you design your home could play a role in whether you pack on the pounds or keep them off. You can make your environment work for you instead of against you. Here are some ways to turn your home into part of your diet plan.
Open the curtains and turn up the lights. dark environments are more likely to encourage overeating, for people are often less self-conscious(难为情) when they’re in poorly lit places—and so more likely to eat lots of food. If your home doesn’t have enough window light, get more lamps and flood the place with brightness.
Mind the colors. Research suggests warm colors fuel our appetites. In one study, people who ate meals in a blue room consumed 33 percent less than those in a yellow or red room. Warm colors like yellow make food appear more appetizing, while cold colors make us feel less hungry. So when it’s time to repaint, go blue.
Don’t forget the clock—or the radio. People who eat slowly tend to consume about 70 fewer calories(卡路里) per meal than those who rush through their meals. Begin keeping track of the time, and try to make dinner last at least 30 minutes. And while you’re at it, actually sit down to eat. If you need some help slowing down, turn on relaxing music. It makes you less likely to rush through a meal.
Downsize the dishes. Big serving bowls and plates can easily makes us fat. We eat about 22 percent more when using a 12-inch plate instead of a 10-inch plate. When we choose a large spoon over a smaller one, total intake(摄入) jumps by 14 percent. And we’ll pour about 30 percent more liquid into a short, wide glass than a tall, skinny glass.
1.The text is especially helpful for those who care about ____.
A.their home comforts B.their body shape C.house buying D.healthy diets
2.A home environment in blue can help people ____.
A.digest food better B.reduce food intake C.burn more calories D.regain their appetites
3.What are people advised to do at mealtimes?
A.Eat quickly. B.Play fast music C.Use smaller spoons D.Turn down the lights
4.What can be a suitable title for the text?
A.Is Your House Making You Fat? B.Ways of Serving Dinner
C.Effects of Self-Consciousness D.Is Your Home Environment Relaxing?
4、Whales, like all mammals(哺乳动物),need air, and come to the surface to breathe through a blowhole. A drone(无人机)that floats over the blowholes of humpback whales as they are making annual journey along Australia's east coast is being used by Australian scientists for collecting nasal mucus(鼻腔粘液)of whales.
Vanessa Pirotta, a biologist at Macquarie University says that nasal mucus indicates the health of the whale. “It is the biological mixture that you see as a whale takes a breath as it surfaces from the water,” she said. You can hear sounds of sharp breaths as a whale breathes because, after all, they are animals like you and I. So as they take a breath it is a lot of lung bacteria coming out from their lungs, which we can collect to provide a brief idea of whale health.
Australian researchers have attached a special dish that is used in scientific tests to a drone which flies through the whale's nasal mist. As a whale comes to take a breath—you can actually see it coming to the surface on really good weather days —the drone then lowers, the dish is then opened, collecting nasal mucus for later research.
The research could help to solve one of the secrets of another impressive creature of the deep —the Southern right whale. Its numbers have recovered on Australia's west coast since hunting became suppressed but its population on the eastern seaboard remains stubbornly low.
In the past studies into whale health had to rely on examining whales that were either killed or those whales that had been trapped on a beach. Drones allow scientists to collect nasal mucus from free-swimming whales to gather information in a safe way.
1.What is the drone mainly used to do?
A.To gather information for researchers. B.To record new species of whales.
C.To guarantee the safety of whales. D.To take photos of whales' annual journey.
2.How can a biologist find out a whale's health condition in the study?
A.By examining liquids from its breath. B.By checking its lungs on a machine.
C.By listening to the sounds of its breath. D.By studying its similarity with humans.
3.What does the underlined word “suppressed” in Paragraph 4 mean?
A.Commercial. B.Rewarding. C.Hidden. D.Forbidden.
4.Why is the Southern right whale mentioned?
A.To describe the difficulty to track it.
B.To show the increasing population.
C.To stress the urgency of doing the research.
D.To indicate the potential application of the research.
5、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。
Chalk used in school classrooms comes in thin sticks. Lessons are often presented to entire classes on chalkboards (or blackboards, as they were originally called) using sticks of chalk.①______
As found in nature, chalk has been used for drawing since prehistoric times. And it helped to create some of the earliest cave drawings. Later, artists of different countries and styles used chalk mainly for sketches(素描),and some such drawings have survived.②______The method was to grind(碾碎)natural chalk to a fine powder, then add water, clay, and various dry colors. It was then rolled into stick shape and dried.
③______Class sizes began to increase at that time. Therefore, teachers needed a convenient way of conveying information to many students at one time. Not only did instructors use large blackboards, but students also worked with personal chalkboards, completing with chalk sticks and a sponge or cloth to use as an eraser. These small chalkboards were used for practice, especially among the younger students.
An important change in the nature of classroom chalk brought was in chalkboards. Blackboards used to be black, because they were made from true slate(石板).While some experts advocated a change to yellow chalkboards and dark blue or purple chalk to copy writing on paper, when makers began to shape chalkboards from synthetic(合成的)materials during the 20th century, they chose the color green, arguing that it was easier on the eyes.④______
Almost all chalk produced today is dustless. Earlier, softer chalk tended to produce a cloud of dust that some feared might contribute to breathing problems.⑤______It's just that the dust settles faster.
A.Dustless chalk still produces dust.
B.Yellow became the preferred color for chalk.
C.Paper made only from rags at this time was expensive.
D.That's because this method has been proven cheap and easy.
E.Chalk was first formed into sticks for the convenience of artists.
F.Baking chalk longer to harden it more helps to produce less dust.
G.Chalk didn't become standard in schoolrooms until the 19th century.

Welcome to my school! When you arrive, there will be a party for you organizing by my classmates. You may attend to English classes to feel a differently learning style. After that, you can go to your host family that you can experience the Chinese way of life. You can have meals together chatting anything that interests us.

Best wishes.

答案以及解析
1答案及解析：
答案：1.C; 2.A; 3.D
解析：
1.细节理解题。根据第一段的第一句"EFP courses provide courses in English language and British cultural activities ”及 Why choose EFP courses 部分中的 "We expose our students to British culture for the entire length of the course”可知,EFP课程全程提供英语语言授课及英国文化活动,故C项正确。根据第一段的第二句"Our courses are aimed at students aged between 12 and 17 who are at pre-intermediate level or above in English"可知,目标学员的英语水平必须在预备中级及以上,故A项错误;根据Why choose EFP courses 部分中的 "We tailor courses to each group’s needs"可知,B项错误;根据第一段的第三句"The courses are held in Guildford, a historic town near London," 可知,该课程的授课地点为伦敦近郊的Guildford,故D项错误。
2.细节理解题。根据When we run the courses部分中的"courses can be booked between now and 23 May, 2019 and between 30 May,2019 and 30 June,2019" 可知,A 项正确。根据 Length of a course 部分中的"EFP courses are run for either one or two weeks depending on the specific requirements of your group”可知,B 项错误;根据 Why choose EFP courses 部分中的"we also run English drama classes, taught by professional drama teachers”可知,戏剧课程由专业的戏剧老师讲授,故C项错误;根据How to apply部分中的 "Please register your interest by sending an email to info @ efpcourses.co. uk”可知,学生以通过电子邮件申请,故D项错误。
3.写作意图题。根据第一段,尤其是第一、二句"EFP courses provide courses in English language and British cultural activities. Our courses are aimed at students aged between 12 and 17 who are at pre-intermediate level or above i n English "和文中对课程优势的介绍可知,本文旨在面向12到17岁、英语水平在预备中级及以上的学生推广EFP课程,故D项正确。
2答案及解析：
答案：1.B; 2.D; 3.B; 4.A
解析：1.选B词义猜测题。画线部分后的“go the extra mile and spend￡168 on piek-me-ups (提神物品) to get their mate through a rocky patch(艰难时刻)like the breakup of a relationship”就是对它的进一步说明。此处指虽然在朋友哭泣时成为朋友的依靠并不需要花费什么,但是英国人会为朋友付出更多,他们会花168英镑来为朋友买令人振作的物品,助其度过诸如关系破裂等困难时期。画线部分的意思应该是“慷慨的”,故选B。
2.选D细节理解题。根据第二段中的“blowing ￡4,679 on birthday presents” “spend ￡168 on pick-me-ups(提神物品)”以及第三段中的“￡242 spent on presents… from gifts bought on holiday to treats…” “spend a whopping(巨大的)￡18,000 on travel to see each other”可知,为了维持一段友谊,花在旅途中的费用是最多的,所以选D。
3.观点态度题。根据最后一段中的“Those friendships which stand the test of time are often the most important in our1ives.However,they come at a cost”可知,Natasha认为,经受得起时间考验的友谊通常是我们人生中最重要的东西,但那是要付出成本的。也就是说与一生的挚友的友谊很贵但很值得。所以选B。
4.作手法题。根据文中的“￡23.870”“￡4,679”“￡168”“￡242”“￡18,000”等数据可知,本文作者是通过列数据的方法来行文的,故选A。
3答案及解析：
答案：1.B; 2.B; 3.C; 4.A
解析：1.细节理解题。根据文章第一段的内容可知,你家的房子可能会影响你的身材。你的房子的设计会使你变胖或者变瘦。下文几个段落中提到的各种建议,都是关于如何不变胖的,因此B项“体型”与文章的主要内容相符。
2.细节理解题。根据文章第三段中的“...people who ate meals in a blue room consumed 33 percent less than those in a yellow or red mom ”可知,在蓝色的屋子里吃饭,要比在黄色或者红色的屋子里少吃33%的食物。因此B项“减少食物摄入量”的说法是正确的。
3.细节理解题。根据最后一段“When we choose a large spoon over a smaller one, total intake(摄入) jumps by 14 percent ”可知,进餐时选择大的汤匙要比小的汤匙多吃14%的食物,因此建议使用小的汤匙。
4.主旨大意题。本文主要介绍了房间的环境,比如亮度、墙壁的颜色,吃饭的时候使用的器皿大小及吃饭的速度,都影响着一个人的身材。因此本文主要阐述了房间与一个人肥胖的关系,A 项正确。
【长难句分析】Experts say the way you design your home could play a role in whether you pack on the pounds or keep them off.专家说你设计房子的方式能够在你究竟是增肥还是减肥方面起作用。本句是一个复合句。Experts say后面跟了一个省略that的宾语从句,在宾语从句中the way后面有一个省略了关系词的定语从句you design your home;宾语从句中还包含一个由whether引导的宾语从句。play a role in“在某方面起作用”;pack on the pounds“增肥”;keep the pounds off“减肥”。
4答案及解析：
答案：1.A; 2.A; 3.D; 4.D
解析：1.细节理解题。根据第一段中的“A drone(无人机)that floats over the blowholes of humpback whales as they are making annual journey along Australia's east coast is being used by Australian scientists for collecting nasal mucus(鼻腔粘液)of whales.”可知,无人机是用来收集鲸鱼的鼻腔粘液的,也就是为研究人员收集信息,故A项正确。
2.细节理解题。根据第二段中的“Vanessa Pirotta, a biologist at Macquarie University says that nasal mucus indicates the health of the whale.”可知,鼻腔粘液能够反映出鲸鱼的健康情况,由此可知,生物学家在研究中是通过检查鲸鱼呼出的粘液来了解鲸鱼的健康状况的,故A项正确。
3.词义猜测题。根据画线词前的“Its numbers have recovered on Australia's west coast since hunting became”可知,自捕猎活动受到禁止以来,澳大利亚西海岸的南露脊鲸数量已经开始回升,南露脊鲸数量的回升得益于禁止非法捕猎,由此可知画线词词义为“禁止”,故D项正确。
4.推理判断题。根据倒数第二段中的“but its population on the eastern seaboard remains stubbornly low.”可知,东部沿海的南露脊鲸的数量仍然很低,言外之意,可以利用这项研究来弄清楚东部沿海的南露脊鲸的数量低的原因,由此可知,文章提到南露脊鲸是为了指出这项研究的潜在应用,故D项正确。
5答案及解析：
答案：
1. D
2. E
3. G
4. B
5. A
解析：
1. D 该空前一句说到“一般老师给全班同学上课都是用粉笔在黑板上进行”,因此D选项“那是因为这种做法被证实是既廉价又简单”贴切。(注意此选项的this method)
2. E 该空前面几句说的是粉笔被用于绘画,后面两句说的是绘画用的粉笔是如何制作而成的,因此E选项“粉笔最初被做成棍状是为了方便画家”贴切。(注意上文提到的artists)
3. G 该空后面几句说到“那是班级规模开始扩大,教师们需要一种便捷的方法把信息同时传递给很多学生。不仅教师使用很大的黑板,而且同学们也。。。”因此G选项“粉笔直到十九世纪才成为教室里的标配”贴切。(注意空后的at that time)
4. B 该空前面说到“出于对眼睛的考虑,二十世纪黑板的颜色变成了绿色”因此,B选项“黄色成为粉笔的首选颜色”贴切。(本段主要讲黑板及粉笔的颜色)
5. A 该空后一句说到“只不过是粉尘沉降得更快而已”,因此A选项“无尘粉笔仍然会产生粉尘”贴切。
6答案及解析：
答案：1.B; 2.D; 3.C; 4.B; 5.A; 6.C; 7.A; 8.B; 9.D; 10.C; 11.A; 12.D; 13.B; 14.C; 15.A; 16.D; 17.A; 18.B; 19.D; 20.C
解析：1.由第六段作者对再次回家探望母亲时看到的情景的描述可知此处应选 sitting 。
2.母亲在说" Happy birthday!" 的同时,应该是“用手指向” 装礼物的盒子,并告诉作者 " Open them." 。
3.根据后半句母亲买给“我”的礼物正是“我”想要的,可见母亲比任何人都更了解“我”。well 的比较级 ,well 可与 know 搭配,可表示程度。
4.此处的hugged 与后面的 thanked 相呼应, 表达了作者对母亲为她筹备生日的感激之情 。
5.从母亲的答语 " You' ll run them off tomorrow"中可以看出 ,此处作者说的是蛋糕中的卡路里 。
6.从后文母亲忘记了已经给女儿过完生 B , 以及最后一段母亲可能每天跟作者说上十遍左右同样的对话 ,可看出母亲记忆力 ”衰退”。
7.signal 意为“发信号;表明” 。 有患有记忆力衰退父/母的人有一天“收到信号”或察觉到父/母的记忆力出现问题。
8.该空前的 that day 指的就是上一段中提到的 one day, 这样一个日子在两周后 “到来”了 。
9.根据上下文判断,这里应该是作者再次回家“看望”母亲。
10.根据该空后面的描述及第一段,可以看出作者这次到母亲家 看到了与生日那天同样的“场景” 。
11.该空与第一段中提到的 boxes 相呼应 。
12.根据该段与第一段中对作者到母亲家看到的场景的描述可看出,母亲两次准备的生日礼物几乎
13.根据该空后 面作者的话 "What's going on?" 可看出,面对眼前的一幕,作者一开始不知发生了什么,所以感到很“困惑” 。
14. 根据作者在第五段提到的记忆力衰退问题及该空后的" This was real life" 可看出,此时作者意识到是母亲的记忆力出现了问题,而非母亲为捉弄自己而搞的“恶作剧”.
15.虽然当天并不是作者生日 ,但作者知道记忆力出现问题的母亲也是一片好心,为使自己“开心"才准备了这么多礼物。
16.根据上下文可看出,作者当时尽力平复心情,努力扮演好一个对母亲为自己所做的一切表示“感恩”的女儿的角色,该空与后文的 hugged , thanked 相呼应 。
17. 根据上文作者说母亲在生日那天送她的衣服正是她想要的,可看出作者非常喜欢该礼物,此处作者应该是装作像生日当天那样欣喜地“欣赏”衣服。
18.此处 two weeks ago 与第 六段 中的 two weeks later 相呼应。
19.根据上文母亲的症状可看出母亲容易忘事,做过的事或说过的话很快就会忘记,所以此处应该是作者一天要陪着母亲一遍遍地重复“同样的”对话。
20.根据上下文可看出前后两旬是转折关系, 尽管因母亲记忆力衰退的问题,作者一天要陪着母亲一遍遍地重复同样的对话 ,但作者不但没有不耐烦,反而把此事当作" pleasure" , 因为每一次对话、每一刻对于母亲来说都是新的 。故选择However 。
7答案及解析：
答案：where; are placed; to show; left; to; the; fishermen; separation ; extremely; eastern
解析：
提到饮食文化就不能不说中国了,中国的饮食文化博大精深,源远流长。对一个外国人来说,想到中国玩,那就要先了解中国的饮食文化。
1. where考查定语从句。两个逗号之间是非限制性定语从句,修饰先行词the West,关系词在从句中作地点状语,所以要用关系副词where。
2. are placed考查动词时态和语态及主谓一致。在中国人们把菜放在桌上大家一块儿吃。设空处是谓语动词,与主语the dishes之间是被动关系,时态为一般现在时,主语是复数形式,所以答案为are placed。
3. to show考查非谓语动词。为了表示自己的礼貌,主人会用公用筷子给客人夹菜。设空处是不定式作状语,表示目的。
4.left考查非谓语动词。此处是“with+宾语+宾补”结构,宾语the food与leave之间是被动关系,所以要用过去分词形式。
5. to考查介词。 be impolite to sb.对某人没礼貌。
6. the考查冠词。此处用定冠词the表特指。
7. fishermen考查名词单复数。根据设空处后的their可知,设空处要用名词的复数形式。
8.separation考查词性转换。分析句子结构可知,设空处是句子的主语,结合空前的定冠词The可知,设空处要用所给词的名词形式。
9.extremely考查副词。当你游览中国的时候,以上这些建议将会非常有用。副词extremely修饰后面的形容词useful。
10.eastern考查词性转换。此处表达:一个有着悠久历史的东方国家。 设空处要用形容词修饰后面的名词country。
8答案及解析：

解析：
第一处：organizing→organized【解析】本句为there be句型， you后面的内容作后置定语，修饰party, organize在此处应用非谓语动形式，party与organize之间为逻辑上的被动关系，应用过去分词，故将organizing改为organized 。
第二处：删除第一个to【解析】动词attend在此处意为“参加”， 为及物动词，其后直接接宾语，第一个to多余，故删除第一个to。
第三处differently →different【解析】修饰名词style应用形容词，故将 differently 改为 different。
第四处：第二个that→where【解析】family后的句子为定语从 句，修饰your host family，分析句子结构可知，先行词在句中作地点状语，所以要用关系副词where。故将第二个 that 改为 where。
第五处：在anything前加about【解析】chat为不及物动词，表达“谈论某事”时，应用chat about sth.，故在anything前加about。
第六处:us→you【解析】此处代词应与本句主语You保持一致，故将us改为you。
第七处:spot→spots【解析】spot在此处意为“地点”，为可数名词，其前有some修饰，应用复数形式。故将spot改为 spots。
第八处:was→is【解析】此处是描述一般性情况，应用一般现在时，故将was改为is。
第九处:the心【解析】此处是泛指“一个好主意”，应用不定冠词，且good的发音以辅音音素开头，故将the改为a。
第十处:unless→if【解析】句意为：如果你命任何关于行程方面的问题就给我写信。此处表示“如果”，故将unless改 为if。

2、 Best friends may be priceless but the cost of keeping the relationship alive is ￡23,870.
According to a study, a BFF (Best Friend Forever) does not come cheap with devoted pals blowing ￡4,679 on birthday presents alone over a lifetime. And while it costs nothing to be a shoulder to cry on, big-hearted Britons go the extra mile and spend ￡168 on pick-me-ups (提神物品) to get their mate through a rocky patch (艰难时刻) like a breakup of a relationship.
There’s a further ￡242 spent on presents to show how much they mean from gifts bought on holiday to treats for no reason. And distance does not break up a close friendship as BFFs spend a whopping (巨大的) ￡18,000 on travel to see each other despite being miles apart because of university, jobs and marriage.
The study by cashback site TopCashBack found on average BFFs who wed can expect ￡431 spent on them and a further ￡283 on gifts when they have children. And they can rely on their pals to help out when they move house as they will obtain ￡127 worth of housewarming presents and takeaways as well as putting in a shift with the packing and unpacking.
The survey based on a friendship lasting 40 years found more than eight in ten adults with a BFF felt their friendships were worth every penny.
TopCashBack spokesperson Natasha Smith said, “Those friendships which stand the test of time are often the most important in our lives. However, they come at a cost. From train tickets once a month to flights and a new dress for a wedding on the Italian coast, the price paid for having a best mate can soon add up. But when we asked people to compare their friendship with the monetary investment (投资), only 14% thought their friendship was equal to their investment with the vast majority thinking it was worth more.”
1.What does the underlined word in Paragraph 2 mean?
A.Ambitious. B.Generous. C.Troublesome. D.Energetic.
2.To keep the relationship, where do BFFs spend most money?
A.Buying birthday presents. B.Cheering up a friend in low spirits.
C.Paying for holiday gifts and other treats. D.Going a particular distance to visit friends.
3.What is Natasha’s understanding of BFF friendship?
A.It's costly and unaffordable. B.It's expensive but worthwhile.
C.It's rewarding but hard to keep. D.It's changeable but worth possessing.
4.How is the passage developed?
A.By listing figures. B.By reasoning.
C.By analyzing causes. D.By making comparisons.
3、Your house may have an effect on your figure. Experts say the way you design your home could play a role in whether you pack on the pounds or keep them off. You can make your environment work for you instead of against you. Here are some ways to turn your home into part of your diet plan.
Open the curtains and turn up the lights. dark environments are more likely to encourage overeating, for people are often less self-conscious(难为情) when they’re in poorly lit places—and so more likely to eat lots of food. If your home doesn’t have enough window light, get more lamps and flood the place with brightness.
Mind the colors. Research suggests warm colors fuel our appetites. In one study, people who ate meals in a blue room consumed 33 percent less than those in a yellow or red room. Warm colors like yellow make food appear more appetizing, while cold colors make us feel less hungry. So when it’s time to repaint, go blue.
Don’t forget the clock—or the radio. People who eat slowly tend to consume about 70 fewer calories(卡路里) per meal than those who rush through their meals. Begin keeping track of the time, and try to make dinner last at least 30 minutes. And while you’re at it, actually sit down to eat. If you need some help slowing down, turn on relaxing music. It makes you less likely to rush through a meal.
Downsize the dishes. Big serving bowls and plates can easily makes us fat. We eat about 22 percent more when using a 12-inch plate instead of a 10-inch plate. When we choose a large spoon over a smaller one, total intake(摄入) jumps by 14 percent. And we’ll pour about 30 percent more liquid into a short, wide glass than a tall, skinny glass.
1.The text is especially helpful for those who care about ____.
A.their home comforts B.their body shape C.house buying D.healthy diets
2.A home environment in blue can help people ____.
A.digest food better B.reduce food intake C.burn more calories D.regain their appetites
3.What are people advised to do at mealtimes?
A.Eat quickly. B.Play fast music C.Use smaller spoons D.Turn down the lights
4.What can be a suitable title for the text?
A.Is Your House Making You Fat? B.Ways of Serving Dinner
C.Effects of Self-Consciousness D.Is Your Home Environment Relaxing?
4、Whales, like all mammals(哺乳动物),need air, and come to the surface to breathe through a blowhole. A drone(无人机)that floats over the blowholes of humpback whales as they are making annual journey along Australia's east coast is being used by Australian scientists for collecting nasal mucus(鼻腔粘液)of whales.
Vanessa Pirotta, a biologist at Macquarie University says that nasal mucus indicates the health of the whale. “It is the biological mixture that you see as a whale takes a breath as it surfaces from the water,” she said. You can hear sounds of sharp breaths as a whale breathes because, after all, they are animals like you and I. So as they take a breath it is a lot of lung bacteria coming out from their lungs, which we can collect to provide a brief idea of whale health.
Australian researchers have attached a special dish that is used in scientific tests to a drone which flies through the whale's nasal mist. As a whale comes to take a breath—you can actually see it coming to the surface on really good weather days —the drone then lowers, the dish is then opened, collecting nasal mucus for later research.
The research could help to solve one of the secrets of another impressive creature of the deep —the Southern right whale. Its numbers have recovered on Australia's west coast since hunting became suppressed but its population on the eastern seaboard remains stubbornly low.
In the past studies into whale health had to rely on examining whales that were either killed or those whales that had been trapped on a beach. Drones allow scientists to collect nasal mucus from free-swimming whales to gather information in a safe way.
1.What is the drone mainly used to do?
A.To gather information for researchers. B.To record new species of whales.
C.To guarantee the safety of whales. D.To take photos of whales' annual journey.
2.How can a biologist find out a whale's health condition in the study?
A.By examining liquids from its breath. B.By checking its lungs on a machine.
C.By listening to the sounds of its breath. D.By studying its similarity with humans.
3.What does the underlined word “suppressed” in Paragraph 4 mean?
A.Commercial. B.Rewarding. C.Hidden. D.Forbidden.
4.Why is the Southern right whale mentioned?
A.To describe the difficulty to track it.
B.To show the increasing population.
C.To stress the urgency of doing the research.
D.To indicate the potential application of the research.
5、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。
Chalk used in school classrooms comes in thin sticks. Lessons are often presented to entire classes on chalkboards (or blackboards, as they were originally called) using sticks of chalk.①______
As found in nature, chalk has been used for drawing since prehistoric times. And it helped to create some of the earliest cave drawings. Later, artists of different countries and styles used chalk mainly for sketches(素描),and some such drawings have survived.②______The method was to grind(碾碎)natural chalk to a fine powder, then add water, clay, and various dry colors. It was then rolled into stick shape and dried.
③______Class sizes began to increase at that time. Therefore, teachers needed a convenient way of conveying information to many students at one time. Not only did instructors use large blackboards, but students also worked with personal chalkboards, completing with chalk sticks and a sponge or cloth to use as an eraser. These small chalkboards were used for practice, especially among the younger students.
An important change in the nature of classroom chalk brought was in chalkboards. Blackboards used to be black, because they were made from true slate(石板).While some experts advocated a change to yellow chalkboards and dark blue or purple chalk to copy writing on paper, when makers began to shape chalkboards from synthetic(合成的)materials during the 20th century, they chose the color green, arguing that it was easier on the eyes.④______
Almost all chalk produced today is dustless. Earlier, softer chalk tended to produce a cloud of dust that some feared might contribute to breathing problems.⑤______It's just that the dust settles faster.
A.Dustless chalk still produces dust.
B.Yellow became the preferred color for chalk.
C.Paper made only from rags at this time was expensive.
D.That's because this method has been proven cheap and easy.
E.Chalk was first formed into sticks for the convenience of artists.
F.Baking chalk longer to harden it more helps to produce less dust.
G.Chalk didn't become standard in schoolrooms until the 19th century.

答案以及解析
1答案及解析：
答案：1.C; 2.A; 3.D
解析：
1.细节理解题。根据第一段的第一句"EFP courses provide courses in English language and British cultural activities ”及 Why choose EFP courses 部分中的 "We expose our students to British culture for the entire length of the course”可知,EFP课程全程提供英语语言授课及英国文化活动,故C项正确。根据第一段的第二句"Our courses are aimed at students aged between 12 and 17 who are at pre-intermediate level or above in English"可知,目标学员的英语水平必须在预备中级及以上,故A项错误;根据Why choose EFP courses 部分中的 "We tailor courses to each group’s needs"可知,B项错误;根据第一段的第三句"The courses are held in Guildford, a historic town near London," 可知,该课程的授课地点为伦敦近郊的Guildford,故D项错误。
2.细节理解题。根据When we run the courses部分中的"courses can be booked between now and 23 May, 2019 and between 30 May,2019 and 30 June,2019" 可知,A 项正确。根据 Length of a course 部分中的"EFP courses are run for either one or two weeks depending on the specific requirements of your group”可知,B 项错误;根据 Why choose EFP courses 部分中的"we also run English drama classes, taught by professional drama teachers”可知,戏剧课程由专业的戏剧老师讲授,故C项错误;根据How to apply部分中的 "Please register your interest by sending an email to info @ efpcourses.co. uk”可知,学生以通过电子邮件申请,故D项错误。
3.写作意图题。根据第一段,尤其是第一、二句"EFP courses provide courses in English language and British cultural activities. Our courses are aimed at students aged between 12 and 17 who are at pre-intermediate level or above i n English "和文中对课程优势的介绍可知,本文旨在面向12到17岁、英语水平在预备中级及以上的学生推广EFP课程,故D项正确。
2答案及解析：
答案：1.B; 2.D; 3.B; 4.A
解析：1.选B词义猜测题。画线部分后的“go the extra mile and spend￡168 on piek-me-ups (提神物品) to get their mate through a rocky patch(艰难时刻)like the breakup of a relationship”就是对它的进一步说明。此处指虽然在朋友哭泣时成为朋友的依靠并不需要花费什么,但是英国人会为朋友付出更多,他们会花168英镑来为朋友买令人振作的物品,助其度过诸如关系破裂等困难时期。画线部分的意思应该是“慷慨的”,故选B。
2.选D细节理解题。根据第二段中的“blowing ￡4,679 on birthday presents” “spend ￡168 on pick-me-ups(提神物品)”以及第三段中的“￡242 spent on presents… from gifts bought on holiday to treats…” “spend a whopping(巨大的)￡18,000 on travel to see each other”可知,为了维持一段友谊,花在旅途中的费用是最多的,所以选D。
3.观点态度题。根据最后一段中的“Those friendships which stand the test of time are often the most important in our1ives.However,they come at a cost”可知,Natasha认为,经受得起时间考验的友谊通常是我们人生中最重要的东西,但那是要付出成本的。也就是说与一生的挚友的友谊很贵但很值得。所以选B。
4.作手法题。根据文中的“￡23.870”“￡4,679”“￡168”“￡242”“￡18,000”等数据可知,本文作者是通过列数据的方法来行文的,故选A。
3答案及解析：
答案：1.B; 2.B; 3.C; 4.A
解析：1.细节理解题。根据文章第一段的内容可知,你家的房子可能会影响你的身材。你的房子的设计会使你变胖或者变瘦。下文几个段落中提到的各种建议,都是关于如何不变胖的,因此B项“体型”与文章的主要内容相符。
2.细节理解题。根据文章第三段中的“...people who ate meals in a blue room consumed 33 percent less than those in a yellow or red mom ”可知,在蓝色的屋子里吃饭,要比在黄色或者红色的屋子里少吃33%的食物。因此B项“减少食物摄入量”的说法是正确的。
3.细节理解题。根据最后一段“When we choose a large spoon over a smaller one, total intake(摄入) jumps by 14 percent ”可知,进餐时选择大的汤匙要比小的汤匙多吃14%的食物,因此建议使用小的汤匙。
4.主旨大意题。本文主要介绍了房间的环境,比如亮度、墙壁的颜色,吃饭的时候使用的器皿大小及吃饭的速度,都影响着一个人的身材。因此本文主要阐述了房间与一个人肥胖的关系,A 项正确。
【长难句分析】Experts say the way you design your home could play a role in whether you pack on the pounds or keep them off.专家说你设计房子的方式能够在你究竟是增肥还是减肥方面起作用。本句是一个复合句。Experts say后面跟了一个省略that的宾语从句,在宾语从句中the way后面有一个省略了关系词的定语从句you design your home;宾语从句中还包含一个由whether引导的宾语从句。play a role in“在某方面起作用”;pack on the pounds“增肥”;keep the pounds off“减肥”。
4答案及解析：
答案：1.A; 2.A; 3.D; 4.D
解析：1.细节理解题。根据第一段中的“A drone(无人机)that floats over the blowholes of humpback whales as they are making annual journey along Australia's east coast is being used by Australian scientists for collecting nasal mucus(鼻腔粘液)of whales.”可知,无人机是用来收集鲸鱼的鼻腔粘液的,也就是为研究人员收集信息,故A项正确。
2.细节理解题。根据第二段中的“Vanessa Pirotta, a biologist at Macquarie University says that nasal mucus indicates the health of the whale.”可知,鼻腔粘液能够反映出鲸鱼的健康情况,由此可知,生物学家在研究中是通过检查鲸鱼呼出的粘液来了解鲸鱼的健康状况的,故A项正确。
3.词义猜测题。根据画线词前的“Its numbers have recovered on Australia's west coast since hunting became”可知,自捕猎活动受到禁止以来,澳大利亚西海岸的南露脊鲸数量已经开始回升,南露脊鲸数量的回升得益于禁止非法捕猎,由此可知画线词词义为“禁止”,故D项正确。
4.推理判断题。根据倒数第二段中的“but its population on the eastern seaboard remains stubbornly low.”可知,东部沿海的南露脊鲸的数量仍然很低,言外之意,可以利用这项研究来弄清楚东部沿海的南露脊鲸的数量低的原因,由此可知,文章提到南露脊鲸是为了指出这项研究的潜在应用,故D项正确。
5答案及解析：
答案：
1. D
2. E
3. G
4. B
5. A
解析：
1. D 该空前一句说到“一般老师给全班同学上课都是用粉笔在黑板上进行”,因此D选项“那是因为这种做法被证实是既廉价又简单”贴切。(注意此选项的this method)
2. E 该空前面几句说的是粉笔被用于绘画,后面两句说的是绘画用的粉笔是如何制作而成的,因此E选项“粉笔最初被做成棍状是为了方便画家”贴切。(注意上文提到的artists)
3. G 该空后面几句说到“那是班级规模开始扩大,教师们需要一种便捷的方法把信息同时传递给很多学生。不仅教师使用很大的黑板,而且同学们也。。。”因此G选项“粉笔直到十九世纪才成为教室里的标配”贴切。(注意空后的at that time)
4. B 该空前面说到“出于对眼睛的考虑,二十世纪黑板的颜色变成了绿色”因此,B选项“黄色成为粉笔的首选颜色”贴切。(本段主要讲黑板及粉笔的颜色)
5. A 该空后一句说到“只不过是粉尘沉降得更快而已”,因此A选项“无尘粉笔仍然会产生粉尘”贴切。
6答案及解析：
答案：1.B; 2.D; 3.C; 4.B; 5.A; 6.C; 7.A; 8.B; 9.D; 10.C; 11.A; 12.D; 13.B; 14.C; 15.A; 16.D; 17.A; 18.B; 19.D; 20.C
解析：1.由第六段作者对再次回家探望母亲时看到的情景的描述可知此处应选 sitting 。
2.母亲在说" Happy birthday!" 的同时,应该是“用手指向” 装礼物的盒子,并告诉作者 " Open them." 。
3.根据后半句母亲买给“我”的礼物正是“我”想要的,可见母亲比任何人都更了解“我”。well 的比较级 ,well 可与 know 搭配,可表示程度。
4.此处的hugged 与后面的 thanked 相呼应, 表达了作者对母亲为她筹备生日的感激之情 。
5.从母亲的答语 " You' ll run them off tomorrow"中可以看出 ,此处作者说的是蛋糕中的卡路里 。
6.从后文母亲忘记了已经给女儿过完生 B , 以及最后一段母亲可能每天跟作者说上十遍左右同样的对话 ,可看出母亲记忆力 ”衰退”。
7.signal 意为“发信号;表明” 。 有患有记忆力衰退父/母的人有一天“收到信号”或察觉到父/母的记忆力出现问题。
8.该空前的 that day 指的就是上一段中提到的 one day, 这样一个日子在两周后 “到来”了 。
9.根据上下文判断,这里应该是作者再次回家“看望”母亲。
10.根据该空后面的描述及第一段,可以看出作者这次到母亲家 看到了与生日那天同样的“场景” 。
11.该空与第一段中提到的 boxes 相呼应 。
12.根据该段与第一段中对作者到母亲家看到的场景的描述可看出,母亲两次准备的生日礼物几乎
13.根据该空后 面作者的话 "What's going on?" 可看出,面对眼前的一幕,作者一开始不知发生了什么,所以感到很“困惑” 。
14. 根据作者在第五段提到的记忆力衰退问题及该空后的" This was real life" 可看出,此时作者意识到是母亲的记忆力出现了问题,而非母亲为捉弄自己而搞的“恶作剧”.
15.虽然当天并不是作者生日 ,但作者知道记忆力出现问题的母亲也是一片好心,为使自己“开心"才准备了这么多礼物。
16.根据上下文可看出,作者当时尽力平复心情,努力扮演好一个对母亲为自己所做的一切表示“感恩”的女儿的角色,该空与后文的 hugged , thanked 相呼应 。
17. 根据上文作者说母亲在生日那天送她的衣服正是她想要的,可看出作者非常喜欢该礼物,此处作者应该是装作像生日当天那样欣喜地“欣赏”衣服。
18.此处 two weeks ago 与第 六段 中的 two weeks later 相呼应。

7答案及解析：
答案：where; are placed; to show; left; to; the; fishermen; separation ; extremely; eastern
解析：
提到饮食文化就不能不说中国了,中国的饮食文化博大精深,源远流长。对一个外国人来说,想到中国玩,那就要先了解中国的饮食文化。
1. where考查定语从句。两个逗号之间是非限制性定语从句,修饰先行词the West,关系词在从句中作地点状语,所以要用关系副词where。
2. are placed考查动词时态和语态及主谓一致。在中国人们把菜放在桌上大家一块儿吃。设空处是谓语动词,与主语the dishes之间是被动关系,时态为一般现在时,主语是复数形式,所以答案为are placed。
3. to show考查非谓语动词。为了表示自己的礼貌,主人会用公用筷子给客人夹菜。设空处是不定式作状语,表示目的。
4.left考查非谓语动词。此处是“with+宾语+宾补”结构,宾语the food与leave之间是被动关系,所以要用过去分词形式。
5. to考查介词。 be impolite to sb.对某人没礼貌。
6. the考查冠词。此处用定冠词the表特指。
7. fishermen考查名词单复数。根据设空处后的their可知,设空处要用名词的复数形式。
8.separation考查词性转换。分析句子结构可知,设空处是句子的主语,结合空前的定冠词The可知,设空处要用所给词的名词形式。
9.extremely考查副词。当你游览中国的时候,以上这些建议将会非常有用。副词extremely修饰后面的形容词useful。
10.eastern考查词性转换。此处表达:一个有着悠久历史的东方国家。 设空处要用形容词修饰后面的名词country。

解析：
第一处：organizing→organized【解析】本句为there be句型， you后面的内容作后置定语，修饰party, organize在此处应用非谓语动形式，party与organize之间为逻辑上的被动关系，应用过去分词，故将organizing改为organized 。
第二处：删除第一个to【解析】动词attend在此处意为“参加”， 为及物动词，其后直接接宾语，第一个to多余，故删除第一个to。
第三处differently →different【解析】修饰名词style应用形容词，故将 differently 改为 different。
第四处：第二个that→where【解析】family后的句子为定语从 句，修饰your host family，分析句子结构可知，先行词在句中作地点状语，所以要用关系副词where。故将第二个 that 改为 where。

第六处:us→you【解析】此处代词应与本句主语You保持一致，故将us改为you。
第七处:spot→spots【解析】spot在此处意为“地点”，为可数名词，其前有some修饰，应用复数形式。故将spot改为 spots。
第八处:was→is【解析】此处是描述一般性情况，应用一般现在时，故将was改为is。
第九处:the心【解析】此处是泛指“一个好主意”，应用不定冠词，且good的发音以辅音音素开头，故将the改为a。
第十处:unless→if【解析】句意为：如果你命任何关于行程方面的问题就给我写信。此处表示“如果”，故将unless改 为if。
