21、Racket, din clamor, noise, whatever you want to call it, unwanted sound is America’s most widespread nuisance. But noise is more than just a nuisance. It constitutes a real and present danger to people’s health. Day and night, at home, at work, and at play, noise can produce serious physical and psychological stress. No one is immune to this stress. Though we seem to adjust to noise by ignoring it, the ear, in fact, never closes and the body still responds—sometimes with extreme tension, as to a strange sound in the night.

The annoyance we feel when faced with noise is the most common outward symptom of the stress building up inside us. Indeed, because irritability is so apparent, legislators have made public annoyance the basis of many noise abatement programs. The more subtle and more serious health hazards associated with stress caused by noise traditionally have been given much less attention. Nevertheless, when we are annoyed or made irritable by noise, we should consider these symptoms fair warning that other thing may be happening to us, some of which may be damaging to our health.

Of many health hazards to noise, hearing loss is the most clearly observable and measurable by health professionals. The other hazards are harder to pin down. For many of us, there may be a risk that exposure to the stress of noise increases probability of disease and infection. The people more likely to be affected may experience noise as a complicating factor in heart problems and other diseases. Noise that causes annoyance and irritability in health persons may have serious consequences for these already ill in mind or body.

Noise affects us throughout our lives. For example, there are indications of effects on the unborn child when mothers are exposed to industrial and environmental noise. During infancy and childhood, youngsters exposed to high noise levels may have trouble falling asleep and obtaining necessary amounts of rest.

Why, then, is there not greater alarm about these dangers? Perhaps it is because the link between noise and many disabilities or diseases has not yet been conclusively demonstrated. Perhaps it is because we tend to dismiss annoyance as a price to pay for living in the modern world. It may also be because we still think of hearing loss as only an occupational hazard.

【1】The author’s attitude toward noise would best be described as ___.

A. unrealistic.

B. traditional.

C. concerned.

D. hysterical.

【2】Which of the following best states the main idea of the passage?

A. Noise is a major problem and most people recognize its importance.

B. Although noise can be annoying, it is not a major problem.

C. Noise is a major problem and has not yet been recognized as such.

D. Noise is a major problem about which nothing can be done.

【3】The author condemns noise essentially because it ___.

A. is against the law.

B. can make some people irritable.

C. is a nuisance.

D. does harm to people’s health.

【4】The author would probably consider research about the effects noise has on people to be ___.

A. unimportant.

B. impossible.

C. a waste of money.

D. essential.

22、   For people, many other animals, family matters. Consider how many jobs go to relatives. Or how an ant will cruelly attack intruder(入侵的)ants but rescue injured, closely related nest-mates. There are good evolutionary reasons to aid relatives, after all. Now, it seems, family feelings may stir in plants as well.

A Canadian biologist planted the seed of the idea more than a decade ago, but many plant biologists regarded it as heretical—plants lack the nervous systems that enable animals to recognize kin(家族), so how can they know their relatives? But with a series of recent findings, the belief that plants really do care for their most genetically close peers—in a quiet, planty way—is taking root. Some species control how far their roots spread, others change how many flowers they produce, and a few tilt(倾斜)or shift their leaves to minimize shading of neighboring plants, favoring related individuals.

“We need to recognize that plants not only sense whether it’s light or dark or if they’ve been touched, but also whom they are interacting with,” says Susan Dudley, a plant evolutionary ecologist, whose early plant kin recognition studies sparked the interest of many scientists.

Beyond broadening views of plant behavior, the new work may have a practical side. In September 2018, a team in China reported that rice planted with kin grows better, a finding that suggested family ties can be used to improve crop yields. “It seems anytime anyone looks for it, they find a kin effect,” says Andre Kessler, a chemical ecologist at Cornell University.

【1】Why are ants mentioned in the first paragraph?

A. To show how cruel ants are to their enemies.

B. To lay foundation for the idea of plants’ family feelings.

C. To introduce the topic of how family matters to animals.

D. To explain why people usually give more jobs to their relatives.

【2】Which of the following words has the closest meaning to the underlined word “heretical”?

A. Indescribable. B. Understandable. C. Impossible. D. Traditional.

【3】What may be the plants’ way of expressing their care for relatives?

A. They stop producing flowers to avoid competition.

B. They spread their roots far so as to protect their peers.

C. They care for their injured peers by silently taking roots.

D. They move their leaves to share sunlight with their close peers.

【4】What can be inferred from the text?

A. Different plants mustn’t be planted together.

B. Corn planted with corn can produce more than that with rice.

C. China has put the idea into wide practice and achieved great success.

D. The closer rice is planted with their relatives the more they will produce.

23、Blue whales are the largest creatures to live on Earth after the dinosaurs. These amazing creatures are not only the largest whale species but also the largest mammal (哺乳动物) species to have ever existed on Earth.

The average length of a blue whale is 23—27 meters and its weight is from 100 to 150 tons. In spite of their large size, blue whales can swim at a fast speed of 25 to 30 miles per hour. The blue whales are not really blue in color but are actually gray. Blue whales feed on krill (磷虾). They take in a lot of water. They have a very unique way of communicating with each other by sending low frequency sound waves, which is even higher than the sound produced by a plane.

Before the whale hunting time started, blue whales could be found in all major oceans. Once, there were more than 200,000 blue whales that swam in the oceans. The Seas of Canada, North Atlantic Ocean and the seas to the south of Madagascar are among the most popular regions where blue whales can be found nowadays. Other major parts are the Antarctic Ocean and the Davis Strait.

Early whaling was limited by simple tools and whaling skills. So the damage to whale populations was not great. But with the development of powerful guns and steam-powered boats, whaling advanced. More whales were hunted at a rapid rate. In 1931 alone, 29,649 whales were killed. Humans competed to hunt the big animals. Besides, the number of blue whales is low due to more man’s deep-sea activities.

Fortunately, officials are doing something great about the blue whales. The International Whaling Commission has taken steps to protect these wonderful creatures. Committees of experts have been formed to work against whaling.

【1】How do blue whales communicate?

A．By swimming fast.

B．By delivering food.

C．By touching each other.

D．By sending sound signals.

【2】What is the third paragraph mainly about?

A．The habits that blue whales develop.

B．The ways that blue whales are hunted.

C．The places where blue whales can be found.

D．The reasons why blue whales are endangered.

【3】What caused the number of blue whales to drop quickly according to the text?

A．Ocean water was polluted.

B．Hunting tools were improved.

C．The blue whales suffered from illnesses.

D．The blue whales fought against each other.

【4】What is the author’s attitude towards the officials’ work?

A．Positive.

B．Worried.

C．Unclear.

D．Confused.

24、   What are dreams for? Sigmund Freud famously claimed that they reveal hidden truths and wishes. More recent research suggests that they may help us process intense emotions, or perhaps classify(分类) and consolidate(巩固) memories, or make sense of random neuron(神经) activity, or rehearse(排练) responses to threatening situations. Other believe that dreams have no evolutionary(进行的) function, but simply dramatize personal concerns.

Despite being largely unsupported by evidence, Freud’s view maintains a strong following around the world. Researchers found that students in the U.S., South Korea, and India were much more likely to say that dreams reveal hidden truths than to endorse better-substantiated(证实的) theories. In the same study, respondents said that dreaming about a plane crash would cause them more anxiety than an official warning about a terrorist attack.

Even if dreams can't foretell(预知) the future, they seem to expose our shared fascinations. The majority of dreams occur during REM sleep cycles(快速动眼期), of which the average person has four or five a night. A study of Canadian university students found the most common dream topics to be school, falling, being chased, and arriving too late for something.

For all the commonalities dreams exhibit, they vary across time—people who grew up watching black-and-white TV are more likely to dream in black and white—and culture. A 1958 study determined that compared with Japanese people, Americans dreamed more about being looked up, losing a loved one, finding money, being inappropriately dressed, or encountering an insane person. Japanese people were more likely to dream about school, trying repeatedly to do something, being paralyzed with fear, or "wild, violent beasts."

But even negative human dreams can have positive effects. In a study of students taking a French medical-school entrance exam, 60 percent of the dreams they had beforehand involved a problem with the exam, such as being late or leaving an answer blank. But those who reported dreams about the exam, even bad ones, did better on it than those who didn't.

So the next time you dream about an education-related experience in which you are both falling and being chased, don’t worry: It’s probably totally meaningless. Then again, your brain might be practicing so you’ll be ready if such an event ever comes to pass.

【1】According to different theories mentioned in the passage, dreams may help people in various aspects EXCEPT ________.

A.healing the body B.memory classification

C.preparation for a dangerous situation D.understanding random neuron activity

【2】The underlined word “endorse” in the passage probably means “________.”

A.check B.advertise

C.support D.measure

【3】Which of the following statement is true according to the passage?

A.People all dream in black and white without any other color.

B.Humans have the longest REM skep among all animals that dream.

C.Our dreams often reflect our emotions or anxieties in many forms.

D.People feel more stressed when encountering emergencies in reality than in dream.

【4】According the passage, bad dreams are good because ________.

A.what you experience in dreams usually turns out to be the opposite

B.bad dreams can help us prepare beforehand to perform better in reality

C.it is a kind of comfort and relief to think dreams are usually meaningless

D.dreaming about bad things enhances(提高) our bravery and helps to drive away our fears

26、阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。

Twelve Days of Kindness

Although it was less than two weeks before Christmas, I found it difficult to be in a festive mood. We had moved to Canada, and holidays were difficult for us because we missed our friends and relatives in Minnesota. Our family was also going through a very difficult year, with health problems and a serious work-related problem for my husband.

“Mom, How I wish we could spend Christmas with Grandpa and Grandma in Minnesota. I really miss them and my friends there.” said my fifteen-year-old daughter, Rachel.

“I know, Rachel. So would I,” I said. “But Minnesota is 2,000 kilometers away. Don’t you remember how hard it was to drive in that snowstorm last year? And then the temperature dropped to-30℃ on our way back?”

“I remember,” she said and ducked her head disappointedly.

We thought driving to Minnesota for Christmas was too risky and buying airline tickets for three people was out of the question. We would be spending Christmas alone in Canada, and had no money for a Christmas tree or a Christmas dinner.

We were surprised when the doorbell rang. It was dark and cold outside, and we weren’t expecting anyone. Hesitantly, Rachel stood up and went forward to open the door, and then said, “Mom, there’s a big box on the doorstep and nobody is out here!” My husband also went and looked. But there was nobody insight.

They brought the box in. We were surprised to find that the box contained many packages covered in bright Christmas paper. Each had a typewritten note: Open Dec.14, Open Dec.15...There were a total of twelve—the “Twelve Days of Christmas.” The note read: Our LOVE is given anonymously(匿名地), so enjoy fun with your family, but don’t tell anyone please.
