However, when he left home for college, he was able for the first time to start taking his life and weight into his own hands.He started by shopping at a local farmers market, an experience that inspired him profoundly. The idea that a farmers market represents local, sustainable, healthy food with a human connection where you can interact with the people that grow your produce was extremely appealing to him, and he began to think about the food that people at his university were eating. From what he saw at farmers markets, Hai realized that dining hall food was not “rear” food A lot of it is frozen or processed, and has unhealthy additives. His ideas continued to develop as he started taking classes about food sustainability at university, and after the summer of 2014 during which he cooperated with other students9 he launched into his senior year at the University of California full force with the Real Food Challenge (RFC) campaign, a project he co-founded that aims to reinvest university spending in food that is “real”: ecologically-sound, community-based, humane, and fair; as opposed to those traditional purchases with those unhealthy additives and processed products.Not only has Hai started a movement of change across the university dining system, but he has also grown extremely as an individual,now with strong leadership abilities and great vision. In addition, after he started learning about food sustainability and taking action at university, Hai has lost over 100 pounds, and has been able to start enjoying activities such as backpacking and swimming that were not a possibility for him previously. He is confident instead of distraught now.25. When did Hai get the idea of “rear” food?A. When purchasing the locally-made foodB. When reforming the university dining system.C. When reinvesting university spending in food.D. When organizing the Real Food Challenge campaign.26. What benefit has the campaign brought to Hais occupational development?A. He has been hired by the university.B. He has become an expert in food fieldC. He has got excellent leading ability.D. He has become much thinner than before.27. According to Hai, “real” food is .A. rich in nutritionB. made by expertsC. frozen or processedD. healthy without additivesCAs more people opt for the single life, adult friendships also grow more important For people in relationships, having a reliable group is important, too-your mate will be much happier if youre spreading your anxieties beyond his or her cars and you will also feel better.In a recent study, researchers made some fascinating findings about how “who we are” informs the friendships we hold. The study was based on the most popular personality construct in contemporary psychology, the Big 5 personality traits (特征); extraversion, or how much you love attention and interacting with people; neuroticism, or how easily worried you are by things; agreeableness, or how warm and kind you are; conscientiousness, or how careful you are about lifers many duties; and openness to experience, or how much youre into discovering new things, whether theyre ideas, people, or places.For their study, the research team recruited 434 students. They took a personality questionnaire in the lab, then rated how satisfied they were with their friends and their life overall, and then researchers asked them to recommend half a dozen friends to rate their personality. Gathering these ratings together, the researchers found that openness to experience didnt have anything to do with friendship satisfaction, at least in this study. Neuroticism was linked to lower satisfaction (probably because emotionally unstable people may be dramatic or hard to please, at least in my personal experience). But having high scores in the three remaining sunny traits-conscientiousness, extra version, and agreeableness-predicted higher friendship satisfaction. However, its a pretty intuitive (直觉的) result, since its easy to be friends with someone whos always on time, always saying that youre right, and always up to hang out But if you dont exactly identify with all that* fear not: Your personality is so much more than your traits.28. What does the author think of the friendship?A. It is helpful to dating and work.B. It can relieve your negative emotions.C. It has nothing to do with personality.D. It is ba.sed on the 5 popular personality traits.29. What did the recent study find?A. The biggest 5 personality traits.B. The methods of informing the friendships.C. The ways to form the most popular personality.D. The relationship between personality and friendships.30. What does the underlined word “neuroticism” in Paragraph 2 mean?A. Determination.B. Nervousness.C. Hesitation.D. Optimism.31. What opinion does the author hold?A. Its hard to please emotionally unstable people.B. A punctual person can surely make more friends.C. Friends arc more important than families for single persons.D. The five traits arc equally demanded in getting higher friendship satisfaction.DA typical school day in the UK starts around 8:30 am. This is often even earlier elsewhere in the world, with students sitting down to their first lesion at 7:30 am in the US. The average teenager ideally needs to nine hours sleep each night, but in reality a lot of teenagers struggle to get this much. A lot of the problems arise because our sleep patterns are not fixed, and they change as we grow.So a later school start time could help to solve this problem, by ensuring teenagers to get their eight plus hours of sleep and react properly to their bodys natural rhythms. There has been a general shift over the past 25 years to shorten the school day. This is not at the cost of teaching time (which has remained constant) but at the cost of natural breaks, which has led to reduced lunch time and lesson breaks.Later start times could help teens grades and health. This is mainly because it makes the management of children easier. Supervising (监管) hundreds of children “playing” requires effective staffing. And there is always the fear that behaviour worsens during breaks. So the theory goes that having them in class and strictly supervised must be better.But this means that students barely have enough time to absorb what they were doing in maths before suddenly they are thrust into ancient history. And teaching staff also transit from one class to another, with hardly a rest or time to refocus.Clearly rethinking the school day could benefit everyone involved. Anyway, it could also lead to better achievement in teenagers and less of a struggle for parents in the mornings For teachers, it could also mean a less stressful day all around- and what could be better than that?32. How do schools often shorten the school day?A. They increase more holidays.B. They reduce the teaching time.C. They properly adjust children natural rhythms.D. They reduce childrens lunch time and lesson breaks.33. Whats the purpose of the children short lesson breaks according to the text?A. To reduce childrens excitement.B. To make children quickly take in what they learned.C. To supervise children more easily.D. To make children behave better in class.34. What can we learn about later school start time from the text?A. It will add to the teachers pressure.B. It has always been there for 25 years.C. It benefits the students only.D. Parents may support it.35. What can be the best title for the text?A. The benefits of a less stressful day B. How to solve teenagers sleep problem C. The benefits of later school start timeD. The reasons why teenagers sleep differently 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。 I have been living in Toulouse for over four months now and I can safely say that my ability to talk to French people has improved in an unbelievable way. I was told before I came out to France by a man I respected that living abroad would be the making of me. 36 Here is my four-step guide to living in a foreign country:1. Integrate (融合) with the culture and the people. It is very easy to go to work and just come straight home but this will lead to periods of huge boredom and loneliness. 37 Until recently, I did not believe that a friend made on a year abroad is a friend for life but now I do.2. 38 I joined a church in Toulouse and as a result I now have a place to go to practise my faith. If you are a religious person this point could really help you. If you enjoy your exercise, joining a gym is also a good idea.3. Speak the language. Even if you cant speak the local language well, at least make efforts to try and improve. 39 4. Travel. 40 More importantly, it gives you memories that allow you to tell others of your experiences.These are four things that allowed me to safely integrate into a totally foreign culture. Trust me, you dont know how young and inexperienced you are until you live abroad for the first time.A. Travelling around the country passes the time.B. I can tell you that his words proved to be true.C. Share with others some of the things you have.D. Get into organizations that help you meet people.E. Good luck to anyone who reads this and goes abroad.F. The best thing to do is to go out and meet people everywhere.G. This helps you become a more fluent speaker and more people will talk to you.第三部分 语言知识运用(共两节,满分45分)第一节(共20小题;每小题1.5分,满分30分)阅读下面短文,从短文后各题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中,选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。Im proud of m
