her own biography to explore life in France since the 1940s,was awarded this years Nobel Prize in literature on Thursday for work that lights up cloudy corners of memory,family and society.Ernauxs autobiographical books explore deeply personal experiences and feelings-love,sex,abortion,shame-within a changing web of social and class relationships.Much of her material came out of her experiences being raised in a working-class family in the Normandy region of northwest France.Anders Olsson,chairman of the Nobel literature committee,said Ernaux is“an extremely honest writer who is not afraid to confront the hard truths.”“She writes about things that no one else writes about,for instance her abortion,her jealousy,her experiences as an abandoned lover and so on.I mean,really hard experiences,”he said after the award announcement in Stockholm.And she gives words for these experiences that are very simple and striking.They are short books,but they are really moving.Ernaux is just the 17th woman among the 119 Nobel literature laureates(文学奖得主)and is the first French literature laureate since Patrick Modiano in 2014.As one of Frances most well-received authors and a prominent feminist voice,she expressed surprise at the award,asking a Swedish journalist who reached her by phone:Are you sure?“I was working this morning and the phone has been ringing all the time but I havent answered,”she told the TT news agency.Olsson said Ernaux had used the term“an ethnologist of herself”rather than a writer of fiction.Her more than 20 books,most of them are very short,chronicle events in her life and the lives of those around her.They present uncompromising portraits of sexual encounters,abortion,illness and the deaths of her parents.In the book that made her name,“La Place”(A Mans Place),published in 1983 and about her relationship with her father,she writes:“No lyrical reminiscences,no triumphant displays of irony.This neutral writing style comes to me naturally.”24.Where would this passage most probably appear?A.An autobiography.B.A news website.C.A text book.D.A biography.25.According to the passage,why was Ernaux awarded Nobel Prize in literature?A.Because her work is short and really moving.B.Because she is gifted in neutral writing style.C.Because her work uncovers some cloudy social aspects.D.Because she is one of the most well-received authors.26.What does the underlined sentence in the last paragraph but one mean?A.Ernaux lives a hard life.B.Ernaux doesnt write fiction.C.Ernaux only writes her own life.D.Ernaux mostly records realistic events.27.Which of the following best describes Ernaux?A.Pioneering and strong-minded.B.Honest and self-centered.C.Sympathetic and talented.D.Optimistic and good-tempered.C Until now the usual way we identify dogs is with micro-chipping.In some countries its even the law.But a company from South Korea has developed an app that can identify dogs a little less invasively.On this phone,Ive got the new app,PetNow,which is now using the dogs nose print to identify a dog,just like you can use a fingerprint with a human to make identification.A dogs nose print is very similar as well.“Now show me your nose,buddy.”It takes me a few seconds to take pictures of the dogs nose.“Oh yes,I made it,okay!Then who is the dog?Is it Emma,Lenard,Karl,or Ethan?”The app analyses the data in the cloud and tells me that this is Emma,and not only that,its showing me that Emmas been reported as missing.And its telling me where she was reported missing,and I can share my location with the owner,so they can be reunited.Unlike a micro-chip,which could be cut out of a stolen dog,you cant really remove a dogs nose,not without spoiling the dog.And by using the phones camera to scan,anyone in theory can check a stray dog without any specialist equipment.Recently,Ive spoken to PetNow to find out why theyd settled on nose prints for dog recognition.There may be paws or ears,but some dogs really hate showing up,sharing their paws or their ears.Nose is actually exposed all the time.And after a dog become six months old the nose print stays there their entire life,so we believe that it is the best part for identification.PetNow hopes its app will become mandatory in South Korea to help reduce the number of dogs that are abandoned by pet owners.To do that they will need the backing of government and a huge marketing push,so that everybody including people who dont own a dog must install the app and know how to use it.28.Which can be inferred from the passage?A.Dogs prints are very similar.B.Micro-chipping a dog is out of date.C.The app can map out a lost dogs original place.D.The app requires specialist equipment.29.Why did PetNow settle on nose prints for dog recognition?A.Because a micro-chip can be cut out.B.Because some dogs hate showing up.C.Because their nose print never changes.D.Because their nose is easy to be photographed.30.Which of the word best explains the underlined word“mandatory”in the last paragraph?A.safe.B.required.C.professional.D.easy.31.Whats the best title of the passage?A.Taking Pictures for Dogs Nose.B.Nose Print Technology on the Way.C.PetNow Saves Abandoned Dogs.D.PetNow Identifies Dogs with Nose Print.D Hurricane season is here.Fiona ruined Puerto Rico,and less than two weeks later,Ian struck the west coast of Florida and its remnants(残余部分)moved up and hit the Eastern Seaboard.Extreme weather events like Ian and Fiona have become more intense because of climate change.That reality has implications for those of us in health care.We have a duty to protect and advance the health of our patients.We typically think of health as something doctors monitor,offering treatment such as prescription medications as needed.But in reality,only about 20%of a persons health is attributable to the medical care they receive.Social determinants such as peoples neighborhood and socioeconomic status are actually responsible for 40%of a persons health outcomes.Its a sad truth that a ZIP code can be more predictive of a persons health than his or her genetic code.Consider how extreme weather events such as this summers heat waves affected communities unequally.Poor urban neighborhoods,with sparse tree cover but plenty of concrete and asphalt,absorb and retain the heat of the suns rays,while leafy,shaded countrysides just a few miles away stay much cooler.A University of CaliforniaSan Diego study that measured land surface temperatures in over 1,000 counties across the United States found that neighborhoods with the lowest average education and income levels generally recorded higher temperatures.Extreme weather events such as flood can threaten peoples physical and mental health long after it recedes.Almost 1 in 3 people in the flooded area were estimated to have suffered from certain post-traumatic stress disorder.Therefore,physicians in regions at increased risk of natural disasters may need to be ready to deliver more mental health care.For example,doctors in drought-stricken areas may need to make water safety a part of their conversations with patients,because groundwater sources can become unsafe to drink without sufficient rainfall.Climate change has posed an immediate and dire health threat.Now is the time for health care providers to take collective action to adapt to this unfortunate reality.32.What can we infer from paragraph 3?A.ZIP code largely tells a persons health outcomes.B.A persons genetic code is determined by ZIP code.C.A persons genetic code is less important than ZIP code.D.ZIP code is most responsible for peoples health outcomes.33.Why did the author mention poor urban neighborhoods?A.To show that people with the lowest education have the lowest income.B.To show that poor people tend to be more exposed to extreme weather.C.To show that shaded countrysides stay much cooler than urban areas.D.To show that poor people live in a less-environment-friendly community.34.How many kinds of extreme weather are mentioned in the passage?A.2.B.3.C.4.D.5.35.What is the tone of the passage?A.Objective.B.Urgent C.Optimistic.D.Worried.第二节(共 5 小题;每小题 2.5 分,满分 12.5 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。Recess for Kids Ask a group of kids about their favorite part of the school day and many will talk about something that happened at recess.Maybe they finally made it across the monkey bars(单杠).Maybe somebody kicked the ball over the fence.Maybe a fruit tree in a neighboring yard started to drop apples on the playground.36 Its true not just according to kids,but also to adults who study recess for kids.Whether theyre inventing a new game or sitting under a tree,kids need a break or several of them during the school day.Why Kids Need Recess.Theres no debate that recess,or mainly referred to as physical activity,is good for kids.You cant have your brains go hours at a time and retain and store information in working memory.37 Besides,activity that involves arms and legs running,climbing,crawling builds new neural connections,which helps kids regulate their emotions.Studies show that after recess children are more attentive in class,perform better and have fewer emotional problems.How Much Recess Should Kids Get.“Ideally,children should get four 15-minute recesses every day”,says Debbie Rhea,a professor from Texas Christian University,who advocates for outdoor play in schools.38 It is noted that Centers for Disease Control and Prevention have recently expanded the idea to encourage recess for all students,including those in middle a
