I visited it while travelling recently. Its considered one of the Seven Wonders of the World. The great white domes of the mausoleum(large tomb), standing out against the sky. Its an amazingly romantic building. It was built by the heartbroken emperor, Shah Jahan, after the death of his third wife, as an expression of his sorrow. - KeiraOpening Hours:9:00am-4:00pmTicket Price: Adult $ 4, child $2The Experience Music Project MuseumMy favorite building is the Experience Music Project Museum in Seattle. It was designed by Canadian architect Frank Chery and his customer was Paul Allen of Microsoft fame. Chery was the first person to use a computer modeling system called CATIA- which was used in the aerospace industry. As he said,” we did a building by computer for a computer guy”!At the heart of the structure is a high-tech cinema with a 70ft high ceiling and the worlds largest LED screen. -DylanOpening Hours:10:00am-5:00pmTicket Price: Adult $ 2, child $1Westminster Abbey My favorite is a world famous church- Westminster Abbey.

AaronsBThree boys were enjoying themselves in their hometown of Bovina, Mississippi. However, their lives were turned upside down when they discovered the jawbone of a Mastodon (齿乳象). Brothers Shawn and Caid Sellers and cousin Michael Mahalitc found the prehistoric bone in a piece of earth that was recently plowed (犁、耕). “I thought it was a log,” Caid said. “I tried to pick it up and it was really heavy and I saw teeth on it.” The bone weighed about 50 pounds. They eventually got the bone to their home and fitted it in their tub (浴盆), but it took their collective strength, might and a golf cart, to carry the large Mastodon bone. “They didnt expect to find that,” Michaels mom said. “Now that they have, I believe that they will be more aware of their surroundings and what theyre digging up when they are digging and playing.”“Weve gotten a lot of petrified (石化的) wood and Civil War relics from the area and thats what I thought it was,” the brothers mother said. “This is our first set of teeth weve found. So we thought it was their imagination. We were quite surprised to see that it was not their imagination.”They were exploring near the brothers home. Lo and behold (真想不到), they saw what they thought resembled a fossil. It was the curator of paleontology (古生物负责人) of the Mississippi Museum of Natural Science, George Phillips, who first identified the bone as a “very mature individual.”The Mastodon was a mammal who lived during the prehistoric times. They had long tusks and trunks, like elephants. They were clearly different from their modern-day counterparts, as well as woolly mammoths (猛犸). 24. How did they find the jawbone of a Mastodon?A. With great efforts. B. By chance. C. Instructed by an expert. D. Through imagination. 25. At first the brothers mother thought the jawbone was_. A. from people who died in the Civil War B. the bone from a very mature individualC. like a log or something D. the prehistoric bone26. The discovery of the jawbone of a Mastodon is important mainly because it_. A. helps people to know more about the Civil WarB. teaches kids to be more aware of their surroundingsC. promotes the research on more prehistoric creaturesD. attracts the Mississippi Museum of Natural Science27. Which of the following can be the best title for the article?A. Prehistoric Bones Recently Found in MississippiB. Not Petrified Wood Nor Civil War RelicsC. First Identifying Bone as a “Very Mature Individual”D. Unexpectedly Discovering Mastodon JawboneCMany people have heard bee populations are declining due to such threats as pesticides(杀虫剂). And many understand bees are important to plant pollination(授粉). Yet, according to a study led by Utah State University ecologist Joseph Wilson, few are aware of the wide diversity of bees and other pollinators beyond such species as honeybees.“The U.S. Postal Service recently put out its Protect Pollinator series, which features only the European honeybee and the monarch butterfly,” says Wilson, assistant professor of biology at USUs Tooele campus. “A social media commenter observed that using these two species on a campaign to protect pollinators is similar to focusing on chickens to save birds. Its a pretty good comparison, actually.”Wilson, with colleagues Matthew Forister of the University of Nevada-Reno, published findings in the Sept. 5, 2017, online edition of Frontiers in Ecology and the Environment.“In our recent survey, 99 percent of our respondents said bees are important, yet only 14 percent were able to guess within 1,000, the actual number of bee species in the United States,” he says. “Most people guessed around 50 species of bees, while the correct number is about 4,000 known species.” Further, when shown images of varied insects, many people were unable to distinguish bees from non-bees.“A challenge with lack of knowledge about bees is you cant protect what youre now aware of,” Wilson says. “We could be losing species or causing decline and not even know it.”Public education is key to encouraging conservation efforts, he says. “Because conservation efforts require substantial public support, its important that the public understand bees and what needs to be done to protect these species,” Wilson says. “Education is the key to understanding bee declines and protecting our pollinators.”28. According to the text, bees function as _.A. honey-makersB. pest-killersC. producers D. pollinators29. What can we infer from Paragraph 2?A. Wilson is in support of the Protect Pollinator series. B. The commenter observed honeybees and butterflies.C. People neglect many other pollinators. D. Protecting chicken can help save birds.30. What does the underlined word “substantial” in the last paragraph mean?A. legal. B. large. C. minimum. D. slim.31. What is the best title for the text?A. Not Only HoneybeesB. Protection of HoneybeesC. Growing Threats to BeesD. Newly Discovered Bee SpeciesDAs any plane passenger will confirm, a crying baby is almost impossible to ignore, no matter how hard you try. Now scientists believe they may have worked out why. A babys cry pulls at the heartstrings (扣人心弦) in a way while other cries dont, researchers found.Researchers found that a babys cry can trigger unique emotional responses in the brain, making it impossible for us to ignore them-whether we are parents or not. Other types of cries, including calls of animals in great pain, fail to get the same response-suggesting the brain is programmed to respond specifically to a babys cry.A team of Oxford University scientists scanned the brains of 28 men and women as they listened to a variety of calls and cries. After 100 milliseconds, two parts of the brain that respond to emotion lit up. Their response to a babys cry was particularly strong. The response was seen in both men and women-even if they had no children.Researcher Dr, Christine Parsons said, “You might read that men should just notice a baby and step over it and not see it, but its not true. There is a special processing in men and women, which makes sense from an evolutionary view that both men and women would be responding to these cries,” The study involved people who were not parents, yet they are all responding quickly to these particular cries so this might be a fundamental response present in all of us regardless of parental status.Researcher Katie Young said it may take a bit longer for someone to recognize their own childs cries because they need to do more “fine-grained analysis”. The team had previously found that our reactions speed up when we hear a baby crying. Adults performed better on computer games when they were played the sound of a baby crying than after they heard recordings of adults crying or high-pitched (高音的) birdsong. The findings could help shed light on post-natal (产后的) depression-where mothers struggle to bond with their newborn-by showing how a healthy brain responds to a babys cries.32. A babys cry is difficult to ignore because it .A. keeps on cryingB. cries harder than adultsC. causes people great painD. makes people feel strong emotions33. The underlined word “trigger” in Paragraph 2 probably means “ A. removeB. avoidC. causeD. cure34. What may Christine Parsons agree to?A. Almost everyone makes certain response to a babys cries.B. A crying baby makes no sense to people without children.C. Men pay less attention to a crying baby than women.D. Parents can hardly recognize their own babies cry.35. Computer games are mentioned in the text to show .A. players different reactions to a crying babyB. babys crying contributes to quicker reactionsC. the influence of babys and adults crying on performanceD. its hard to keep ones concentration with a crying baby nearby 第二节(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)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。Whether youre a child, teenager, young adult or are middle-aged, respect your parents is an important value. Your parents are the people who raised you, devoting time, energy and money to your development. 36No matter your age, there are 5 ways to show respect. Respect their belongings. One important way to show respect is to show regard for the things important to your parents. For younger children, this may mean not touching jewelry or other valuable things.

Make plans to take them to lunch or dinner or bake a cake or cookies. Most parents dont expect expensive gifts, but a handmade gift is always appreciated .A phone call from a grown child who lives too far for a visit is a welcome sign of respect.Be kind.Kind words and affection are simple ways to show respect.
