26、   Marian Bechtel sits at West Palm Beach’s Bar Louie counter by herself, quietly reading her e-book as she waits for her salad. What is she reading? None of your business! Lunch is Bechtel’s “me” time. And like more Americans, she’s not alone.

A new report found 46 percent of meals are eaten alone in America. More than half（53 percent）have breakfast alone and nearly half（46 percent）have lunch by themselves. Only at dinnertime are we eating together anymore, 74 percent, according to statistics from the report.

“I prefer to go out and be out. Alone, but together, you know? “Bechtel said, looking up from her book. Bechtel, who works in downtown West Palm Beach, has lunch with coworkers sometimes, but like many of us, too often works through lunch at her desk. A lunchtime escape allows her to keep a boss from tapping her on the shoulder. She returns to work feeling energized. “I prefer to go out and be out . Today I just wanted some time to myself.” she said.

Andrew Mazoleny, a local videographer, is finishing his lunch at the bar. He likes that he can sit and check his phone in peace or chat up the barkeeper. “It’s a chance for self-reflection(自我反思). You return to work energetic and with a plan.” said he.

That freedom to choose is one reason more people like to eat alone. There was a time when people may have felt uncomfortable about asking for a table for one, but those days are over. Now, we have our smartphones to keep us company at the table. “It doesn’t feel as alone as it may have before all the advances in technology,” said Laurie Demerit, whose company provided the statistics(数据)for the report.

【1】What are the statistics in Paragraph 2 about?

A.Food variety. B.Eating habits.

C.Table manners. D.Restaurant service.

【2】Why does Bechtel prefer to go out for lunch?

A.To meet with her coworkers.

B.To catch up with her work.

C.To have some time on her own.

D.To collect data for her report.

【3】What is the text mainly about?

A.The advantage of wireless technology.

B.The importance of self-reflection.

C.The stress from working overtime.

D.The popularity of having meals alone.

27、When it comes to getting ahead, is IQ or EQ more important? A thought experiment conducted featuring butterflies and geniuses settles the question once and for all.

【1】 So if you asked people whether they’d rather be a butterfly or a genius, I’m betting most people wouldn’t hesitate before choosing genius. But butterflies are also social creatures, often gathering in groups. The experiment points out just how big an advantage friendliness can be.

Imagine two groups of people. We’ll call them the Geniuses and the Butterflies for short. 【2】 They come up with one ground-breaking invention every 10 human lifetimes. The Butterflies aren’t nearly as bright. They take 1,000 lifetimes to come up with a world-changing invention.

But what the Butterflies lack in cognitive(认知的)horsepower, they make up for in social skills. 【3】 However, the egghead Geniuses are a little awkward. They only have one friend. Now imagine everyone goes about their business trying to learn about cool, new inventions, either by figuring them out for themselves or learning about them from friends. 【4】 The one where the people are a hundred times smarter(the Geniuses)or the one where they’re 10 times more social(the Butterflies)?

Well, communicating ideas within a group might not feel as impressive as coming up with brilliant ideas alone in a corner. Chatty Cathys(滔滔不绝的人)clearly have less cultural mystery than Nobel winners. But without them, new ideas don’t spread fast enough to-make big impact. 【5】

This fascinating thought experiment is good news for the communicators and connectors of the world, but it’s also a valuable lesson for anyone putting-together a team.

A．Which society does better?

B．Each Butterfly has 10 friends.

C．The Geniuses are, well, geniuses.

D．Butterflies are pretty but lacking in strength.

E．Is it hard for the experiment to draw a conclusion?

F．In terms of group success, EQ matters more than raw IQ.

G．The Butterflies shouldn’t be compared with the Geniuses.

28、Dujiangyan is the oldest man-made water system in the world, and a wonder in the development of Chinese science. Built over 2,200 years ago in what is now Sichuan Province in Southwest China, this amazing engineering achievement is still used today to irrigate over 6,000 square kilometres of farmland, take away floodwater and provide water for 50 cities in the province.

In ancient times, the region in which Dujiangyan now stands suffered from regular floods caused by overflow from the Minjiang River. To help the victims of the flooding, Li Bing, the region governor, together with his son, decided to find a solution. They studied the problem and discovered that the river most often overflowed when winter snow at the top of the nearby Mount Yulei began to melt as the weather warmed.

The simplest fix was to build a dam, but this would have ruined the Minjiang River. So instead Li designed a series of channels built at different levels along Mount Yulei that would take away the floodwater while leaving the river flowing naturally. Better still, the extra water could be directed to the dry Chengdu Plain, making it suitable for farming.

Cutting the channels through the hard rock of Mount Yulei was a remarkable accomplishment as it was done long before the invention gunpowder and explosives. Li Bing found another solution. He used a combination of fire and water to heat and cool the rocks until they cracked and could be removed. After eight years of work, the 20-metre-wide canals had been carved through the mountain.

Once the system was finished, no more floods occurred and the people were able to live peacefully and affluently. Today, Dujiangyan is admired by scientists from around the world because of one feature. Unlike modern dams where the water is blocked with a huge wall, Dujiangyan still lets water flow through the Minjiang River naturally, enabling ecosystems and fish populations to exist in harmony.

【1】What are the benefits of Dujiangyan according to the first paragraph?

A．Reducing flooding and watering farmland.

B．Protecting the mountain and reducing flooding.

C．Watering farmland and improving water quality.

D．Drying the river and supplying cities with water.

【2】What was the main cause of the Minjiang Rivers flooding?

A．Heavy rains.

B．Melting snow.

C．Low river banks.

D．Steep mountains.

【3】How was Li Bing able to break through the rocks of Mount Yulei?

A．By using gunpowder.

B．By flooding the rocks with water.

C．By applying a heating and cooling technique.

D．By breaking the rocks with hammers and spades.

【4】Why is Dujiangyan greatly admired by scientists today?

A．It preserves much of the natural river life.

B．It took very little time to complete the project.

C．The building techniques used were very modem.

D．It has raised the living standards of the local people.

29、   The striking bright blues, yellows, and oranges of poison tree frogs are a typical example of warning coloration, sending a message to predators (捕食者) to stay away. But somewhat counterintuitively (反直觉地), these colors may be helping the frogs hide in plain sight, according to a new study.

These frogs live on the forest floor in the lowland rainforests of South America's Guiana Shield. The frogs are blue-black with a bright yellow ring around their head and back, which may be broken or joined to form a figure eight. Like a fingerprint, the pattern is unique to each frog.

Predators generally learn that such brightly colored frogs are poisonous and tend to avoid them. But this doesn't always work. Foolish predators ignore the warning, while some birds and snakes seem to be able to eat poisonous frogs with few ill effects.

So researchers wondered whether these poison frogs have another way of protecting themselves — camouflage (保护色). To find out, they first tested computational models of predator vision on pictures of the frogs. Their results suggested that although the frogs are obvious at close range, their colors and patterns blend (融合) with the rainforest background as viewing distance increases.

To test those results, they placed model frogs on different backgrounds in a rainforest to see how wild predators reacted. Predators attacked the frogs more often when they were placed atop a picture of plain soil or a colored paper square, but less often when they were on the actual rainforest floor.

And humans seem to fall for the trick, too. People who saw pictures of frogs in the rainforest took longer to spot the real frogs at a distance than a frog that had been altered (使变样) so that it didn't have the same colors and patterns. Together, this suggests that although these poison frogs are highly visible at close range, from far away their colors blend together for the perfect rainforest camouflage. The researchers consider that the frog's pattern is made up of a specific distribution of colors to give it the best of both worlds.

【1】What does the new study about poison tree frogs focus on?

A. How their predators catch them.

B. How their bright colors protect them.

C. What their bright colors are.

D. What their predators are.

【2】What does the author intend to do in Paragraph 2?

A. Summarize the previous paragraph.

B. Use examples to support the topic.

C. Add some background information.

D. Introduce a new topic for discussion.

【3】Which one has the similar meaning to the underlined word “range” in Para4?

A. distance B. pace C. thought D. limit

【4】What can be learnt about the results achieved by the researchers?

A. They disagreed with previous research findings.

B. They changed their research direction.

C. They needed more research data support.

D. They confirmed their expectation.

30、I teach biology at UNLV three times per week. Last Monday, at the beginning of class, I ________ asked my students how their weekend had been. One young man said that his weekend had not been so good. He had his wisdom teeth ________. Then he went on to ask me why I ________ to be so cheerful.

But just then my car ________. I tried to start it again, but the engine wouldn’t ________. So I put my     flashers on, took my books, and ________ down the road to the college.

“As soon as I got there, I called AAA (汽车协会) and ________ for a tow truck to meet me at my car after class. The secretary there asked me what had happened. “This is my ________ day,” I replied, smiling.

“Your car breaks down and today is your lucky day?” She was puzzled. “What do you mean?” “I live 17 miles from here”, I replied. “My car could have broken down anywhere along the freeway.   It didn’t. ________, it broke down in the ________ place: off the freeway,   within   walking     distance of here. I’m still able to teach my class, and I’ve been able to arrange for the tow truck to meet me after class. If my car was ________ to break down today, it couldn’t have been arranged in a more convenient fashion. ” The secretary’s eyes opened wide, and then she smiled. I smiled back and headed for class.

32、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。

Two months ago, Ryder Killam, a 15-year-old French boy was registered in a new school in Hawaii. He just moved there with his parents. Although he missed his old friends very much, he managed to adapt to his new school life and soon made a lot of friends.

However, waiting for the school bus every morning often meant a real suffering because Ryder was born with spina bifida （脊柱裂）and he has to live in a wheelchair. Hawaii is one of the rainiest places in the world. This is not an issue for other students, but for him this was a different story. He often got wet all over before the school bus arrived during the rainy days. In that case, he could only have classes with wet clothes on or called his parents to send dry clothes to school and finding a place to get changed was also a big challenge for this disabled boy.

To keep Ryder protected from the bad weather while waiting for the bus every morning, the students in Ryder's school decided to take action. They first uploaded a post on Facebook asking for an unused bus shelter but got no reply.

Not being able to find one, the students from the construction class decided to take on the challenge of building a customized bus shelter for him and quickly put their hands to work.

As part of the high school's Career and Technical Education program, the construction class teaches its students basic building skills. Its main goal is to provide students with tools and skills that will have real applications in future jobs and a meaningful impact on their community. They had already performed several building projects for the community. Two years ago, they managed to build dozens of shelters for stray cats in the local park. Soon enough, they came up with an idea of building a two-window shelter for Ryder.
