1． Longing for the most amazing places on the planet？You can do no wrong with these lakes across the globe.
Five Flower Lake
Set in the striking karst landscape of the Jiuzhaigou Valley in Sichuan province，China，F(xiàn)ive Flower Lake is extraordinarily clear，with visibility to a depth of 40 metres.Five Flower is one of a series of blue-，green-and sky-colored lakes blocked by rock falls，but it differs from the others as its waters change color，looking sometimes yellow，sometimes green，but usually diamond blue.In winter，F(xiàn)ive Flower never freezes；in summer，it never dries up.Local wildlife living in the surrounding mountain forests include the rare giant panda and the golden snub-nose monkey.
Crater Lake
The deep-blue waters of Crater Lake in Oregon，US，fill the outlet of an ancient volcano that collapsed 7，700 years ago.Its strangest occupant is the "Old Man of the Lake"，a nine-metre-tall tree stump（樹樁），which has stood upright in the water for more than a century.No rivers or streams enter the lake.Water loss in summer is compensated by winter snow and rain，the entire body of water being replaced every 250 years.
Lake Ohrid
Ancient Lake Ohrid has been around for about five million years and crosses the mountainous border between Macedonia and Albania.It has unique plants and wildlife，including the Ohrid "plashica"，a fish native to the lake，whose scales（鱗片） are used to make Ohrid pearls.
Lake Maggiore
Surrounded on three sides by the Lipontine Alps and touching the plain of Lombardy to the south，Lake Maggiore is Italy's longest lake.Considered part of the country's lake district，it is shared with Switzerland.Characterized by a Mediterranean-style climate，temperatures here are mild all year.This has given rise to some of northern Italy's most wonderful gardens，which appear to float like flower-decked boats on the water.

2． Coming of age is that time in each of our lives when we begin to see the possibilities.The world opens up in ways that matures our vision，gives us a sense of responsibility and gratitude.Connor Thomson had just started college and loved being at that phase in his life where he could eat all the pizza he wanted，yet engage in adult conversations with his parents about the responsibility to make life better for others.Connor's optimism was striking.There was so much he could do，so much he could become.But it all ended one night when Connor was distracted（分心的） while driving in a Colorado canyon.
Connor's father，David，took it particularly hard.A father sees more than his own traits in his son；he sees greater possibilities than he achieved.Taking that hope away left David feeling aimless.But Connor's optimism was one of those traits passed on to him by his father.So David got to work.First，he established the Honor Connor Scholarship Fund to reward students who served in the community.Next，he went to work creating a research-based curriculum that educates University of Colorado Boulder students and their families about the dangers of texting and driving.
David now works with lecturers at various colleges and high schools，ensuring young minds understand how statically at risk they are when they text and drive.He's become a passionate advocate for preparing young people to drive safely and not subconsciously reach for their phones while they're at the wheel.It includes a very simple three-part commitment：to not text or use social media while driving，speak out if riding with a driver who is distracted and encourage friends and family to drive phone-free.
While every constructive effort reminds David of the loss he suffered，he is encouraged knowing that more young people with so much to of r the word will be around to do good. "I get to be a part of what Connor would have done，" says David.

3． People spend about a third of their lives sleeping.That might sound like time wasted，but it's not.Even in a deep sleep，the brain is busy.It's hard at work sorting memories，cleansing itself of harmful wastes and more.This time of rest also helps the body build stronger bones and heal wounds faster.Experts recommend that teens get about nine hours of sleep each night.But surveys show that only about one-third of 18-year-old snow report getting at least seven hours of sleep per night.As teens go through puberty（青春期），they become natural night owls.Their body is don't release the hormone me a on in（褪黑激素）—which tells the brain it's time for bed—until later at night.This shifts their circadian rhythm（晝夜節(jié)律） such that sleep comes most easily between 11 p.m.jye.ai 8 a.m.But most pubic mid de and high schools in the United States start before 8：30 a.m.And that's a major problem.
Another reason for teens' widespread sleep shortage maybe screens.Survey data from 370.000 U.S.jye.ai has shown an increase in trading sleep for screen time.But losing sleep to screens isn't just a matter of choosing to stay up later.The light emitted by phones，laptops and the other devices makes the brain resist sleepiness.That's because the glow contains blue wavelengths also found in sunlight.This can deceive the brain into thinking it's daytime.
Lack of sleep has been linked to unhealthy eating and feeling more anxious，Sleep-deprived people a so have higher risk of feeling depressed，using alcohol or drugs，or getting in car accidents.Research suggests that people who use screens in bed have a harder time nodding off.New LED tech could lessen that effect.But in the meantime，experts suggest putting away electronics at least 30 minutes before bed. "It might be hard to quit a lively group chat or save the next episode of a show until tomorrow，but turn of and turn in.Your body and brain will thank you."
（1）What does the first paragraph imply？
A．There is more for the brain to deal with.
B．The brain is the busiest during sleeping time.
C．Sleep is vital to our health and wellbeing.
D．Many are suffering sleep-related problems.
（2）What mainly causes teenagers' inadequate sleep？
A．Early school start times.
B．The circadian rhythm.
C．Their tight timetable.
D．Their free lifestyles.
（3）What does "deceive" underlined probably mean？
A．Talk.
B．Mislead.
C．Threaten.
D．Transform.
（4）What does the author want readers to do in the last paragraph？
A．Avoid any digital device.
B．Buy new-tech products.
C．Maintain a good mood.
D．Cut down screen time.組卷：0引用：1難度：0.5

9． It was just past midnight.The stars were shining across the sky.Nicholas Bostic，a 38-year-old driver，was still out on his evening pizza delivery shift.With his favorite music on，he enjoyed the soft wind kissing his face.A she drove pasta two-story house around a street corner，he was shocked at the frightening sight：It was on fire!He stopped his car and rushed over to assess the situation and to determine if anyone might be trapped inside.He reached for his phone to dial 911，but realized he left it at home.He didn't hear sirens（警報(bào)） in the distance.Nor did he see any bystanders dialing the fire department.Nicholas feared the home's sleeping occupants might not wakeup in time to move to safety.
With no time to waste，he made the courageous decision to enter the home on his own without protective gear（護(hù)具）.He gained entry through the back door.He rushed upstairs，yelling "fire!" throughout the home.The oldest child，Seionna，heard his screams and woke up.She woke up her younger sister and a friend who had stayed the night.She then ran to grab her 1-year-old baby sister.
Nicholas called out to the terrified girls and instructed them to follow him.The sister—Seionna，18；Shaylee，13；and Kalia，1―and their family friend，Livian，13，followed his directions to escape to the safety of the street.
"For a minute I didn't understand it，" Shaylee recalled. "But my sister ran upstairs with the baby in her hands，yelling at us to get up because there's a fire.That's when we went downstairs，and Nicolas was downstairs helping us."
Once outside in the fresh air，the girls shook in far and coughed from the smoke.However，they soon realized that their 6-year-old sister，Kaylani，had not escaped with them.
注意：（1）.續(xù)寫詞數(shù)應(yīng)為150左右；
（2）請(qǐng)按如下格式在答題卡的相應(yīng)位置作答。
Without hesitation，Nicholas rushed back into the now flame-filled home.
As flames shot at his feet，he broke the window's glass with his bare hand.
