Bring along your apples, windfalls and picked, to make them into juice; 50% eating and 50% cooking apples can make the best a

11、nd most delicious juice you could ever imagine. We will provide plastic bottles. If you bring your own, it will be better and there will be no charge, though a donation to the Steyning community Orchard (果园) would be appreciated as it will go towards our other activities over the year.

16、earlier this year. Yet whenever we fail at things, were told to look to shining examples of superhuman success despite failure. A study of 400 tenth-graders in New York City public high schools found that students didnt believe normal people have the natural ability to succeed in the same way celebr

17、ities, athletes and entrepreneurs (企业家) do. This isnt too surprising. I have a hard time believing there are actually people out there who see these famous failure-to-success stories and think, “I bet I could do that, too!” But here is a failure-to-success story about an ordinary person you likely h

18、ave not heard of before. In these uncertain times, I hope you find his story inspiring. After graduating from high school, Jacob wasnt sure what he wanted to do. So he quickly got one odd job after another, working random hours to make ends meet. In his early 20s, he got a shot as an entry-level jou

19、rnalist at NBC News, which led to a video editing job at Discovery, where he learned the ropes of digital marketing. Jacob quickly realized marketing was his passion. Through determination and industry, he proved his worth as one company after another began hiring him. In 2015, he decided it was fin

20、ally time to strike out on his own. Today, Jacob is the CEO and co-founder of Discover Podium, a company that offers one-on-one career services for senior leadership. In business for a little over three years, the company is already earning over $1 million. I had the pleasure of working with Jacob m

21、any years ago, and Im not surprised. He works harder than most people, and he is tirelessly enthusiastic.

24、uccessful without others helpCA new study shows that the more people read any kind of fiction, the better their language skills are likely to be. The piece was written by Sandra Martin-Chang of Concordia University in Canada, and her student Stephanie Kozak. Martin-Chang and Kozak used a scale(量表) c

25、alled the Predictors of Leisure Reading (PoLR) to investigate reading behaviours (motivations, attitudes and interests). They then examined how well the PoLR predicted the language skills of 200 undergraduate students, with all data gathered at York University in Toronto. The researchers note that t

26、he age range of the subjects in the study is of key interest. In early adulthood, reading becomes self-directed rather than forced by parents or teachers, which makes this a perfect time for developing ones own reading habits. This population is also rather understudied, with most existing research

27、focusing far more on children. The researchers administered a series of measures over two separate half-hour sessions. First, the volunteers completed the 48-question PoLR scale measuring various reading behaviours. They were then given language tests. The researchers found that people who enjoyed r

28、eading fiction for leisure and who identified themselves as readers scored higher on the language tests, while those who read to access specific information scored more poorly on the same tests.The many benefits of reading have long been established. Besides having better language abilities, lifelon

29、g readers are known to be more understanding of others, attain higher socioeconomic status and even live longer, healthier lives than non-readers. “Teachers and parents can develop a love of reading by letting young people read what they want, without guilt or shame. This established interest, wanti

30、ng to read something over and over again, having a strong desire to read an entire series, feeling connected to characters and authors, these are all good things,” Martin-Chang concludes.28. What did the researchers take into consideration when choosing study subjects?A. Their education.B. Their age

31、.C. Their family background.D. Their childhood reading habit.29. What do we know about those who behaved poorly in the language tests?A. They read a lot out of interest.B. They were popular fiction lovers.C. They identified themselves as readers.D. They read to obtain information.30. What might Mart

32、in-Chang advise teachers to do?A. Allow students to choose their reading freely.B. Tell students to read book series.C. Ask students to read a book repeatedly.D. Encourage students to read books related to them.31. What is the best title for the text?A To open a book is always beneficialB. Picking u

33、p a book for fun positively affects language abilitiesC. Lifelong readers are more understanding of othersD. Reading enriches both mind and heartDWith circus animals increasingly becoming a thing of the past, what happens to all those newly-freed animals that spent their lives in zoos and circuses?

34、Can any animal, after years in captivity (圈养), ever be freed? Even a lifetime in the best zoo will have left animals too affected by years of sheltered existence. No case makes this more heartbreakingly obvious than the story of Keiko, the whale star of Free Willy (1993). A massive letter-writing ca

35、mpaign demanding his freedom led to Keiko being flown to Iceland in 1999 for release. Unfortunately, captured at a very young age and too used to human contact, Keiko never managed to fit into a wild population, struggled to hunt, and eventually died of disease in 2003. “For the longest time, the id

36、ea of returning animals to the wild was just off the table, but now were seeing people in the field questioning the long-held belief that its impossible to return captive animals to their natural habitat,” says Katie Moore of the International Fund for Animal Welfare. “Yes, in a lot of cases it is s

37、till impossible, especially if the animals were very young when captured. But for some animals, if we proceed scientifically and thoughtfully, it can be done.” Consider the African Lion and Environmental Research Trust (ALERT) in Zimbabwe, which for 15 years has worked to introduce lions to the wild

38、. Their method of release involves multiple stages, which eventually sees the release of wild offspring (后代) from previously captive adults. First, lions that have been raised by humans are released into a large fenced area with small animals to hunt. Next, those animals eventually form a wild group

39、 and produce new baby lions. Then, those baby lions, who have grown together and formed social bonds, are eventually released as a group. “For some animals, reintroduction will always be difficult, such as baby elephants, which get used to human care very quickly,” says Moore. “But if we dont push b

40、oundaries we will never know what is possible.”32. What caused Keikos sad story?A. He fell sick during film-making.B. He was brought in from the wild at an old age.C. He failed to seek human company.D. He was ill-equipped for life in the wild.33. What does Moore think of returning captive animals to

41、 their natural habitat?A It is possible for some animals.B. It is in their best interests.C. It can cause them harm.D. It is a completely unrealistic idea.34 Which of the following words can describe ALERTs lion release work?A. Dangerous.B. Eventful.C. Gradual.D. Cruel.35. What is the best title for

42、 the text?A. What are the challenges facing animal reintroduction projects?B. Why do some released animals fail to live independently?C. Can captive animals ever truly return to the wild?D. Are captured animals willing to go back to the natural world?第二节(共5小题；每小题2. 5分，满分12. 5分)阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空

43、白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。You may have come across the picture that has a number drawn on the floor with two people standing on either side of it. One person sees a 6, and the other sees a 9. They are both right, but they are wrong in the eyes of the other person. This is perspective (角度). _36_ Instead, w

44、hat we usually have are two different perspectives on one thing.You may not realize how important your perspective on life is because we often feel that as long as other peoples opinions and decisions do not affect us, ours should not affect them. However, the fact is that our perspective on life do

45、es affect the people around us. _37_ We can end up having two adults who refuse to agree and separate after a heated argument, destroying the chances of building a relationship. We can also end up having two adults who change positions and perspectives to see that this can either be a 6 or a 9, depe

46、nding on where they stand. _38_ And all they have to do is view things from a different perspective. Having a good perspective on life gives you an advantage. First of all, you are a lot more open to seeing from other peoples perspectives, thus making it easy for you to create meaningful relationshi

47、ps. _39_ If you live a life where you are constantly showing thankfulness and being happy, then you have lived a satisfying life. The moment your perspective on life comes into play, always remember that the other persons perspective matters as well. _40_ A lot of quarrels, battles, and wars could b
