most beautiful scenery.Hereare some of worlds best bike routes for cyclists who are either up for having a good sweat orsimply seeing the world without leaving an ugly carbon footprint behind.The Great Ocean Road,Victoria,AustraliaIf you like a challenge,take on this 243kilometer windy road along Australias southeastern coast.If a day is all youve got,take the 60kilometer route from Torquay to Bells Beach.There youll cycle through rural farmland,enjoy the sweeping ocean views from cliff tops,andsnake past the wetlands around Lake Connewarre.The Udaipur City Tour,Rajasthan,IndiaBiking is arguably the best way to explore Udaipur,Venice of the East.Cyclists often need to cycle past herdsmen and their goats and camels,sharing narrow,oldpavements in this romantic place.But surrounded by ancient castles and grand palaces,Udaipurbrings about one of the best biking experiences,allowing cyclists to truly discover rural India.The Karakoram Highway,ChinaPakistanThe Karakoram Highway is the highest international road in the world,reaching an altitudeof 4,717 meters near the Khunjerab Pass.Starting in Kashgar,China,cyclists can travel up to 1,200 kilometers on mostly unpaved roads,but the views are as breathtaking as the riding.The Route of the Hiawatha,IdahoMontana,United StatesTake your family out to Montana this summer and cycle along the most scenic disusedrailroad in the country.The railroad turned bike trail turns into 24 kilometers of leisure biking thattakes you over seven trestles(栈桥)and through 10 tunnels,with the longest one,the Taft Tunnel,stretching for 2.7 kilometers.1In which tour can you enjoy the seaside scenery?AThe Great Ocean Road.BThe Udaipur City Tour.CThe Karakoram Highway.DThe Route of the Hiawatha.2What can you do on the Udaipur City Tour?AGo to Venice.BFeed wild animals.CVisit cultural relics.DEnjoy modern architectures.3Whats special about the Karakoram Highway?AIt is a totally undeveloped route.BIt goes along an abandoned railway.CIt owns the longest tunnel in the world.DIt lies higher than any other international road in the world.BWhen I was three years old,I couldn t speak.It was a strange reality that none of the doctorsI visited could understand.One day,I was shadowing(尾随)my mother.She found herself looking in a mirror,andthrough it our eyes met.She began to speak to me through the reflection,and I slowly began tomimic(模仿)her mouths movements until I formed a word.It turned out that Im deaf in my left ear,and have a slight problem in my right.Being hardof hearing has been difficult,but Ive never lived in a state of selfhating sorrow.Imagine beingable to shut out all sound as you lay your head down to sleep by simply rolling over onto one side.Thats my reality when I sleep on my“good ear”,and it makes me feel like a superherosometimes.People call my deaf side my“bad ear”,but when I wear my hearing aid,I have access to arange of features that some other deaf people dont.In cinemas,for example,with one click of abutton I can enjoy a whole film as though it were whispered to me from the mouths of the actors.Owning a hearing aid hasnt always felt good,however.On the first day I got my aid,when Iwas eight,I took it to school for show and tell.As I explained how it worked to my classmates,aboy yelled out,“Aren t those for old men?”At that moment,I felt different.It took a long timefor me to get over that sense of being so unlike my peers.But its not just schoolkids who can make us deaf and hardofhearing people feel likeburdens.Every video on social media that lacks subtitles(字幕),for example,means an entirecommunity of deaf people is unable to enjoy it.Completely deaf people are excluded fromenjoying many movies too,as subtitles in cinemas are almost impossible to find.And with hearing aids costing around$2,500 each,it can be hard for many people to affordto be able to listen to things that others take for granted.As for me,I can listen to music,enjoyfilms,and catch conversationsIm lucky.Im deaf,but I can still hear everything.Ive beenblessed with wonderful life experiences,and I am human.And when it comes to sleeping,Imeven superhuman.4How does the author view his hearing difficulty?AIts a disaster and causes him a lot of trouble.BIt gave him a chance to experience something special.CIt made him feel embarrassed in front of his classmates.DIt helped him to live in his own world without being interrupted.5What can be inferred from the passage about the author?AHe was born deaf.BHe is optimistic and helpful.CHis family and classmates have supported him a lot.DThe hearing aid brings much convenience to his daily life.6What is the authors attitude toward his life?AGrateful.BAnxious.CExcited.DDisappointed.7What is the authors main purpose in writing the passage?ATo give advice on life to disabled people.BTo show how difficult life is for disabled people.CTo share his experience of treating a disadvantage with gratitude.DTo show the convenience a hearing aid could bring.CYoung trees don t just grow;they develop a personality and learn more about theirenvironment and how they should best behave in it.They also help each other out whenever therestrouble.Personality,just as among people,varies among trees.Some are anxious,some bold.On theauthor s land,there are three oak trees growing close together.One of the oak trees always starts toshed its leaves two weeks earlier than the others.Since they all experience the same temperature,the same soil and the same length of day,such variables cant be the explanation.So whatshappening?Well,this tree is simply more careful than the others.Whoever holds on to their leaveslonger can do more photosynthesis(光合作用)and store more nutrients.However,the longer a treekeeps its leaves,the higher the risk of injury.Not only do trees make their own decisions,they also learnfrom their mistakes.A tree,forexample,keeping its leaves too long during one year will never make this mistake again.Thisleads to several other conclusions:trees must notice the temperature and the length of the day andbe able to save their experiences somewhere.Obviously,trees dont have brains,but it is thoughtthat in the sensitive tips of their roots they keep track of information and experiences.But trees arent only clever when it comes to caring for themselves.They also support eachother whenever there s trouble by giving warnings and even taking care of sick and weakconspecifics with nutrients.For example,one time the author found a very old tree stump.Itsinsides had rotted a long time ago to topsoil.But the wood on the outside of the stump was stillliving.How was this possible?Well,the stump was nourished by its neighbors with nutrients fromthe root system,and had been for at least 400 years!Why do trees do_such_a_thing?Its simple:its better together.Trees need the forest;itprotects them from storms,provides the right microclimate and warns them of attacks.8Why does the author mention the three oak trees?ATo illustrate trees can learn from experiences.BTo show trees can make independent decisions.CTo explain trees are quite supportive to each other.DTo prove trees have the same personalities as humans.9According to the text,which of the following best describes general features of trees?AAnxious and bold.BSmart and adventurous.CHelpful and wellbehaved.DAdaptable and supportive.10What does the underlined phrase“do such a thing”mean?AGive warnings.BOffer assistance.CDepend on others.DProvide nutrients.11Where does this text most probably come from?AA public lecture.BAscience book.CAn experiment report.DA travel journal.DIn the story of the Crow and the Pitcher from Aesops Fables,a thirsty crow drops stonesinto a narrow jar to raise the low level of water inside so he can take a drink.Now scientists have evidence to back up that story.Crows actually do understand how tomake water displacement(排水量)work to their advantage,experiments show.The results suggestthat the birds are,at least in some aspects,as smart as firstgraders.Researchers,led by Sarah Jelbert at the University of Cambridge,presented six crows withtubes containing water.Inside the tubes,a worm or a piece of meat on a piece of wood wasfloating,just out of reach of the crow.In front of the tubes,the researchers arranged several rubbererasers that would sink,and some plastic objects that would float.The crows found out that theycould drop the erasers into the tubes in order to raise the water level and get their snack.However,the_birds_handled_awkwardly in experiments in which they could choose to dropobjects in either a wide tube or a narrow one to get a snack,the researchers said.Dropping objectsinto a narrow tube would lift the water level by a greater amount and put the treat within reachafter just two drops;while it took around seven drops to raise the snack to the same level in thewide tube.The crows obviously didnt realize this,and most of them went for the wide tube first.Previous studies showed that chimps and human children can solve similar tasks.In a 2011study,chimps and kids found out that they could put water into a tube to reach a peanut that wasfloating in a small amount of water at the bottom.12How did the crows get the snack in Sarahs experiment?ABy breaking the tube.BBy dropping in erasers.CBy standing on the wood.DBy removing the wood.13What does the underlined part“the birds handled awkwardly”mean in Paragraph 4?AThey were unable to tell different shapes.BThey dropped objects only into narrow tubes.CThey were not aware of the snack at first sight.DThey mostly avoided the easier way to get the snack.14What does the text mainly focus on?AStories ofAesops Fables.BThe development of crows.CCrows intelligence.DHumananimal communication.15What do we know about crows in the passage?ACrows are almost as clever as firstgraders in some aspects.BCrows understand water displacement completely.CChimps and children are much smarter than crows.DThe story of the Crow and the Pitcher lacks evidence.第二节(共 5 小题;每小题 2 分,满分 10
