circled above the defenseless whale.The whale was ultimately saved after a six-hour,labor-intensive life-saving operation.Someone spotted the large whale on the Prince of Wales Island near the coast of British Columbia on the morning of July 29th.The Coast Guard was called around 9 a.m.local time.Chance Strickland,the captain of a private yacht in Alaska,and his crew anchored and began life-saving action that were videoed by Aroon Melane and posted on the Internet.Strickland could hear the orca calling out to killer whales swimming in the area.People on other boats stopped with water and buckets to pour water over the animal.“There were tears coming out of its eyes,”Mr.Strickland told the local newspaper.“It was pretty sad.”The group of people formed a chain that passed buckets of seawater back and forth and poured the water on the orca,which seemed to liven it up.It made a noise and raised its tail when it got water.The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration(NOAA)was called in,which can be seen on the video using a machine to spray amist of seawater on the orca,which doubled as a way to keep the whale cool and scare the large group of birds that were hoping to feast on the beast.Melane said in her video that the orca was stranded(搁浅)for about six hours until the tide came in andswept it back into the ocean.The group efforts of Stricklands crew and the NOAA saved the 13-year-old killer whale.4.Why did birds circle above the orca?A.They were eager to eat it.B.They wished to protect it.C.They were attracted by the people.D.They wanted to find a place to rest.5.What did Strickland do immediately after finding the whale?A.Posted pictures online.B.Called friends for help.C.Took action to save it.D.Videoed the trapped animal.6.Why did the whale make a noise and raise its tail?A.To express its eager for water.B.To extend its thanks to people.C.To call out to its fellow whales.D.To show its power and sadness.7.Which can be the best title for the text?A.Killer Whale Got Saved B.The Orca Inspired Kindness C.Combined Efforts Wanted D.Animals and Humans United C For years,Zach Ault,a father of three,enjoyed being physically active.He was even training for a half-marathon.But in 2017,he took time off to recover from an infection.After recovering,he tried to continue his runs but could not complete them.He was not able to spend time with his children.He had to cut back his job.Even sleeping as much as 16 hours a day made no difference in his condition.“His body had literally hijacked him and it wasnt going to allow him to push through,”said Anne Ault,his wife.After months of testing,doctors announced their result-chronic fatigue syndrome,a disease that makes an individual feel extremely tired.This fatigue lasts more than six months and becomes worse after any kind of physical exertion(费力活动).Patients may have difficulty standing upright.They also may have trouble thinking,often described as a“brain fog”.There are no approvedtreatments,or even tests to help with diagnosis.There is no way to predict who will recover and who will have a severe case that lasts for years.Now the doctors at the National Institutes of Health(NIH)are conducting a unique study to learn more about the condition.Zach Ault is one of the subjects in the study.When Ault rides an exercise bicycle,scientists measure how his leg muscles use oxygen.Afterward,doctors fit a special cap on Aults head to measure electrical activity in his brain.They then send him to spend the night in an air-tight room where air has been removed with pipe for additional study.Scientists measure oxygen and carbon dioxide levels to tell how much energy Ault is using,minute by minute.“Were figuring out how his body adjusts to an exercise load,or a stress load.”“Its hard not knowing if or when Im going to recover,”he said.But Ault says the study did help him learn about the disease.And it gave him ideas about how to save up his energy.8.What was Zach Aults life like before 2017?A.He was fond of exercising.B.He won several half-marathons.C.He spent much time lying in bed.D.He was busy looking after his children.9.How did the infection affect Zach Ault?A.He lost his job.B.He was unable to sleep.C.He became too weak to do sports.D.He was tired of running a half-marathon.10.What can we learn about chronic fatigue syndrome?A.It usually lasts no more than months.B.It is likely to cause thinking disorders.C.Patients with it need to stay in bed all day long.D.Patients with it should avoid any kind of exercise.11.What does Zach Ault think of the study?A.It helped him cure his illness.B.It helped him recover and stay fit.C.It taught him how to enjoy cycling.D.It brought him new ideas about fighting diseases.D The common use of Google Maps,a navigation(导航)app on smartphones,raises the age-old question we meet with any technology:What skills are we losing?But also,crucially:What capabilities are we gaining?People who are good at finding their way around or good at using paper maps usually experience lots of confusion with digital maps.For example,they may mess up the direction of north and south,and you can see only a small section at a time.But consider what digital navigation aids have meant for someone like me.Despite being a frequent traveler,Im so terrible at finding my way that I still use Google Maps almost every day in the small town where I have lived for many years.What seems unnecessary to some has been a significant expansion of my own capabilities.Part of the problem is that reading paper maps requires a specific skill set.There is nothing natural about them.In many developed nations,street names and house numbers are meaningful,and instructions such as“go north for three blocks and then west”usually make sense.In Istanbul,in contrast,where I grew up,none of those hold true.For one thing,the locals rarely use street names,and house numbers often arentsequentialeither because after buildings 1,2 and 3 were built,someone squeezed in another house between 1 and 2,and now thats 4.But then 5 will maybe get built after 3,and 6 will be between 2 and 3.Besides,the city is full of winding and ancient streets that meet with newer ones.Therefore,instructions as simple as“go north”would require a helicopter.I got lost all the time.But since I used Google Maps,I travel with a lot more confidence,and my world has opened up.And because I go to more places more confidently,I believe my native navigation skills have somewhat improved,too.That brings me back to my original question:while we often lose some skills after seeking convenience from technology,this new setup may also allow us to expand our capabilities and do something more confidently.Maybe when technology closes a door,we should also look for the doors it opens.12.How does the author feel about Google Maps?A Confusing.B.Unnecessary.C.Complicated.D.Helpful.13.Which contributes to the difficulty of finding ways in Istanbul?A.Strange street names.B.Ordinary paper maps.C.Complex road arrangements.D.Lack of road instructions.14.What does the underlined word“sequential”in Paragraph 3 probably mean?A.In a fixed order.B.In good condition.C.Of great importance.D.Of the same kind.15.What column of a newspaper may this passage belong to?A.Fashion.B.Opinion.C.Society.D.Geography.第二节（共 5 小题；每小题 2 分，满分 10 分）阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项 Open an app at your smart phone and scan the code bar on the
