1.There are about 100 beaches around the Sydney Harbor and along the coast.If you find it hard to pick the best destination,here are four waiting for you.
Freshwater Beach
Freshwater Beach is the location where surfing was first introduced to Australia in 1915.The beach is only 350 meters long and is a popular destination for surfers.The beach is protected and therefore provides a quiet swimming experience away from the hustle and bustle of its busy neighboring beaches.
Bondi Beach
Bondi Beach,Australia's most famous beach,is more than 100 meters wide and over 3 kilometers long,which allows plenty of space for the large number of tourists and locals.On a sunny day every grain of sand is covered with bodies,with crowds pouring into nearby bars and cafes.Parking near the beach is impossible.It's also the perfect spot to see a sunset and the scene of family parties during summer.
Clovelly Beach
As one of the best options for surfing and exploring what hides beneath the water's surface,Clovelly,noted for its unique narrow bay between two rocky ridges,is a popular destination for swimmers.It's a good base where you can check out diving routes through the waters,or take a coastal walk to Bondi.
Palm Beach
It's the scene of the long-running Home and Away TV series and endless celebrity spotting.A salt water lake affords great views,typical of beaches on the north side of the harbor.On a nice day,Palm Beach is a postcard-perfect sand destination.

2.Gutiérrez's life changed after finding a copy of Anna Karenina in the trash (垃圾) 20 years ago.It happened one night when he saw discarded books while driving his garbage truck through wealthier neighborhoods.It ignited his desire to start rescuing books from the trash.He took home about 50 books every morning after his night shift.Eventually,he turned his book collection into a community library for children from low-income families.
Bogota,Colombia's capital,has 19 public libraries.However,they are far away from where rural and poorer communities live.The option of buying new books is out of reach for families struggling to make ends meet.Gutiérrez's community library is a true representation of how one man's trash can be another's treasure. "I don't think I'm doing something so great.The library is simply a bridge between people who throw books and those who have no access to books," he said about his remarkable efforts.
Today,his library,called "the Strength of Words",contains over 20,000 books and occupies most of his home.Everything from school textbooks to storybooks can be found in his collection.The library is open every weekend,when neighborhood children pour in. "The whole value of the library lies in helping kids start reading.This is important for kids in Bogota where many young people kill time in the streets and fall victim to vices such as taking drugs," said Gutiérrez.
Gutiérrez grew up poor,and his family couldn't afford to educate him beyond primary school.Nevertheless,he never lets a lack of formal education stop him from reading. "Books are the greatest invention of human beings.There's nothing more beautiful than having a book handy," Guiérrez said.His journey to giving back to his local community is an amazing example of how every one of us can improve the lives of those around us by identifying needs,investing time and finding a simple solution.

A.Indicated.

(2)Which of the following can best describe Gutérrez?
A.Caring and humble.
B.Smart and independent.
C.Traditional and self-disciplined.
D.Ambitious and easy-going.
(3)What do paragraphs 2 and 3 mainly tell us?
A.Bogota's main social problems.
B.The library's rich variety of books.
C.The bad habits of Bogota's young people.
D.The library's significance for the neighborhood.
(4)What message does Gutiérrez's story deliver?
A.Education is the key to success.
B.All things are difficult before they are easy.
C.Small acts of kindness make a big difference.
D.Books are the food for the hungry of great mind.組卷:5引用:5難度:0.4 -
3.A groundbreaking new study finds that coffee beans are bigger and more plentiful when birds and bees team up to protect and pollinate (授粉) coffee plants.
Without these winged helpers,some traveling thousands of miles,coffee farmers would see a 25% drop in crops,a loss of roughly 1,066 per acre of coffee.That's important for the 26 billion coffee industry- including consumers,farmers,and corporations who depend on nature's unpaid labor- but the research goes beyond that.
The study in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences is the first to show,using real-world experiments at 30 coffee farms,that the contributions of nature- in this case,bee pollination combined with pest (害蟲) control by birds- are larger than their individual contributions.
"Until now,researchers have typically calculated the benefits of nature separately,and then simply added them up,which actually underestimates the benefits biodiversity provides to agriculture and human wellbeing," says lead expert Alejandra. "But nature is an interacting system,full of important synergies (協(xié)同).We show the ecological and economic importance of these interactions in one of the first experiments in actual farms."
For the experiment,researchers dealt with coffee plants across 30 farms,excluding birds and bees with a combination of large nets and small bags.They tested four key situations:bird activity alone,bee activity alone,no bird or bee activity at all,and finally,a natural environment,where bees and birds were free to pollinate and eat insects like the coffee berry boere,one of the most damaging pests affecting coffee production worldwide.The combined positive effects of birds and bees on fruit set,fruit weight and fruit uniformity- key factors in quality and price- were greater than their individual effects,the study shows.
"Birds,bees,and millions of other species support our lives and livelihoods,but face threats like habitat destruction and climate change," says Alejandra. "One important reason we measure these contributions is to help protect the many species that we depend on,and sometimes take for granted."
(1)What does the new research focus on?
A.Ways to increase coffee production.
B.Winged helpers' effects on coffee plants.
C.Factors affecting coffee plants' pollination.
D.The importance of pest control on coffee plants.
(2)Which of the following is a major boost to the coffee industry?
A.High-quality service.
B.Government intervention.
C.Expanding investment.
D.Maintaining biodiversity.
(3)How did the researchers conduct the tests according to paragraph 5?
A.By introducing a concept.
B.By making comparisons.
C.By explaining statistical data.
D.By referring to a previous study.
(4)In which section of a newspaper may this text appear?
A.Advertisement.
B.Health.
C.Science.
D.Travel.組卷:5引用:4難度:0.6

9.A Christmas Tree for Mrs Muellen Mrs Muellen was our next-door neighbor when my sister Laurel and I were growing up.She moved here after her husband died.She had no children and no relatives that we knew of.She was gentle and kind,and Laurel and I considered her our special friend.
One December,Mrs Muellen was ill in hospital.Laurel and I were busy making Christmas presents,and we pondered what to make for Mrs Muellen.We couldn't bear seeing her come home before Christmas to an empty house with no holiday decorations.Then we lit upon the idea of decorating a small tree that would greet her with lights and cheer.We were wondering how to carry out our plan when the answer appeared.
I was in Miss O'Keefe's sixth grade class that year,and we decorated a small tree with paper-link chains and ornaments we'd made in art class.It was beautiful.Best of all,it had to be removed from the classroom before Christmas vacation.
Miss O'Keefe said there would be a drawing for the tree.We'd each write our name on a piece of paper and put it in the box she had prepared.On the last day of school before vacation,she'd draw a name from the box,and that student could take the tree home.
Great!That was exactly what I was longing for!So I wrote my name "Helen Wheeler" neatly on a piece of paper and folded it carefully.As I put it into the box,I whispered to Miss O'Keefe that I really hoped I'd win the tree because my sister and I wanted to give it to our neighbor.Though there were 30 children in the class and each might win the tree,I was somehow certain that I would get it because our cause was good:We wanted to make Mrs Muellen happy.
The day before vacation finally arrived.Laurel and I usually walked to and from school,but that day I persuaded Mom to pick us up in her car after school in case I really got the tree.
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。
Before school was over,Miss O'Keefe announced it was time for the drawing.______________________
