As a newly-added
Olympic sport, surfing is attracting more attention than ever before. Here is a
selection of the top surfing destinations across America.
Delaware
Coastal Delaware
offers plenty of fun waves along the shore of several cute towns. Due to the
waves crashing close to the shore, Dewey beach is also a global skim boarding
hotspot and happens to be the east coast capital for the sport.If you’re
planning a visit, check out the popular “Summer Vibes” festival for some beach
fun.
Atlantic
City, New Jersey
When world-famous
surfer and Olympic Gold medalist Duke Kahanamoku, often referred to as “the
father of surfing,” visited the mainland United States in the early 1900s, he
rode his longboard off the coast of Atlantic City. The beaches here are wide
and beautiful—and locals catch waves year-round.
The
Rockaways, New York
Located a short
distance from Manhattan, the Rockaways attracts new and experienced surfers
from across the globe. Be sure to come prepared in winter with a wet suit,
while summer brings much warmer water temperatures. Afterwards, explore the
town as there’s plenty of cafes, boutiques, and restaurants steps from the
sand.
Cocoa
Beach, Florida
Situated about 45
minutes from Orlando, Cocoa Beach is a renowned surf town that’s home to two of
the world’s best surfers (Caroline Marks and Kelly Slater) and a favorite for
surfers of all levels. This family-friendly town has lots of activities for
everyone. When you’re not in the water, you can stroll the Historic Cocoa
Village and its shops, cafes, and galleries.

“Have you
checked the oil in the car?” my father used to say to me, his version of
“Hello, hope you are well.” Sometimes our phone calls would begin with an
inquiry about the oil and end with an inquiry about the oil, with not a lot in
between.
Fathers
have a lot of love to give, but it’s often supplied through the medium of
practical advice. The affectionate phrase “You made my life better from the
moment you were born” may be rarely heard, but there is the more common “I’ll
hold the ladder while you get the leaves off the roof.”
Why can’t
we fathers just say “I love you” or “It’s great to see you” ? The point is:
That’ s exactly what we are sayingYou just have to translate from the language
that is Fatherlish. Listen closely enough and the phrase “I love you” can be
heard in the lengthier “I could come around Saturday and replace the silicon
seal around the base of your toilet because I reckon that thing is getting
really smelly.”
When I
was 17, I went on my first road trip. My father stood on the corner in the
predawn of a cold morning to bid us farewell. “Highways are dangerous,” he
said, “so don’t try overtaking anything faster than a horse and buggy. And take
a break every two hours. And every time you stop for gas, you really should
check the oil.” At the time we thought his speech was funny and would chant
“horse-and-buggy” every time I floored the accelerator.
Dad’s
long gone now. But after all these years, I realize that had I owned a copy of
the Fatherlish-to-English dictionary, I’d have understood that the speech my
friend and I so casually mocked was simply Dad’s attempt at affection.
4. According to the
passage, how do fathers usually show their affection?
A. By inquiring their kids’ car.
B.
By doing rather than saying.
C. By offering helpful advice.
D.
By accompanying their kids.
5. Why does the author
mention his first road trip?
A. To exemplify the unique
parental concern.
B. To provide some
background knowledge.
C. To explain the reasons
for my mocking.
D. To present my father’s
funny speech.
6. What can we infer from
the last paragraph?
A. My father has gone somewhere
faraway.
B. I regretted making fun
of my father’s speech.
C. I owned a copy of
Fatherlish-to-English dictionary.
D. My father’s speech got
across to me when I was 17.
7. Which words can best
describe the author’s father?
A. Caring
and considerate. B.
Devoted and generous.
C.
Talkative and humorous. D.
Knowledgeable and diligent.
C
A study
of 8 different experiments showed that our brains tend to prefer addition
rather than subtraction when
it comes to finding solutions—in many cases, it seems we just don’t consider
the strategy of taking something away at all.
The
researchers found that this preference for adding was noticeable in three
situations in particular: when people were under higher cognitive (认知的) load,
when there was less time to consider the other options, and when volunteers
didn’t get a specific reminder that subtracting was an option. In one of the
experiments, participants were asked to improve a Lego structure so that it was
able to take more weight. Half the volunteers were reminded that they could
take away bricks as well as add them, and half weren’t. In the group that got
the reminder, 61 percent solved the problem by taking away a brick—which was a
much faster and more efficient way of making the structure stable. In the group
that didn’t get the reminder, only 41 percent went for the removing bricks
approach.
“Additive
ideas come to mind quickly and easily, but subtractive ideas require more
cognitive effort,” says psychologist Benjamin Converse, from the University of
Virginia. “Because people are often moving fast and working with the first
ideas that come to mind, they end up accepting additive solutions without
considering subtraction at all.”
The
researchers have a few ideas about what might be going on. Our brains might
find additive changes easier to process perhaps, or we might be associating
adding with ideas of something that's bigger and therefore better in our
subconscious. There might also be associations in our minds with the current
status being something that needs to be maintained as much as possible—and
taking something away is arguably more destructive to the current status than
adding something new.
The
researchers say their work is important in a much broader sense: for
institutions looking to streamline (简化), for example, and even
for the human race looking for ways to better manage the planet’s resources.
8. What does the underlined
word “subtraction” in paragraph 1
refer to?
A. Removal. B. Moderation.
C.
Refusal. D.
Solution.
9. In which situation do
people prefer adding?
A. When they are under high pressure.
B.
When they lack cognitive ability.
C. When they are specially reminded.
D.
When they are hurried to decide.
10. What were participants
required to do in the experiment?
A. Re-shape Lego bricks.
B.
Take Lego bricks away.
C. Move the Lego structure.
D.
Stabilize the Lego structure.
11What is paragraph 4 mainly about?
A. The ways to make
additive changes.
B. The effects of taking
something away.
C. The reasons for brains preferring
addition.
D. The importance of
maintaining current status.
D
Efforts
to preserve the Amazon rain forest, which supports immense biodiversity and
locks away tons of climate threatening carbon, are growing more urgent as the
ecosystem’s destruction accelerates. Indigenous (当地的) peoples have been trying
to protect the region by patrolling (巡逻) their territorial
boundaries for illegal activities. But rapid deforestation continues.
A recent
study shows that combining on-the-ground monitoring with satellite data and
smartphone technology could help put the brakes on Amazon deforestation—and
potentially that of forests elsewhere.
Illegal
logging, agriculture and coca cultivation particularly threaten the Amazon in
the Peruvian Indigenous communities and outsiders are often the culprits (罪魁祸首). The research team wondered if providing training for local
people to use satellite-based “early deforestation alerts” could help. The
scientists collaborated with 76 Indigenous communities, 36 of which participated
in using these alerts to watch over the forest. Over the next two years these
trained participants were paid to work as forest monitors and received monthly
alerts via the app when satellite data indicated local forest losses. Monitors
investigated alerts, patrolled for deforestation in other areas and reported
confirmed losses back to their communities, which decided whether to deal with
the culprits on their own or inform state authorities.
The
researchers analyzed the same forest-loss satellite data from the given time
period in all 76 communities. They found the early-alert program reduced forest
loss by 8.4 hectares in the first two year—a 52% reduction compared with the
average loss in the control communities.
Experts
say this approach to tackling Amazonian deforestation looks promising. “Would
this work in all communities that have high risk of deforestation? Given the
results, it’s worth a try.” says Catherine Tucker, a researcher at the
University of Florida. “But some communities may not have access to the
resources needed for such a program, or their territories may hold valuable
minerals that would increase the risk of deforestation by outsiders despite
monitoring efforts,” wrote Francisco Hernandez Cayetano, a community member
involved in the research, “we as Indigenous peoples ask the world for support.”
12. Why did the research
team conduct the program?
A. To stop carbon being
locked away.
B. To tackle Amazon
deforestation.
C. To monitor satellite
movement.
D. To control illegal activities.
13. How does the
community-based monitoring work?
A. By offering locals
training in using a smartphone app.
B. By combining local
monitoring with smartphone alerts.
C. By organizing native
people to fight against the outsiders.
D. By equipping local
forest with satellite data and monitors.
14. What is Catherine
Tucker’s attitude toward the approach to preventing deforestation?
A. Pessimistic. B. Objective.
C.
Approving. D.
Conventional.
15. Which can be the best
title for the text?
A. Local Monitors Trained for Forest Loss.
B.
Satellite Data Cure Deforestation.
C. Outsiders Are to Blame for Forest Loss.
D.
Smart Patrol Fights Deforestation.

How to Have an Attractive Personality
Being
attractive comes more from your personality than your appearance, and
demonstrating an attractive personality is key to having lasting
relationships.______16______The following tips help foster your
ability to fascinate others.
lLaugh at yourself. If you make a fool of yourself, laugh at
yourself instead of feeling embarrassed. It shows that you’re comfortable in
your skin. A sense of humor makes someone more engaging and delightful to be
with. ______17______ It is a great ice-breaker or stress reliever, but
don’t ruin a serious conversation with inappropriate jokes.
lSpeak
sincerely. Tell people the
truth. If you can’t commit to something, it’s better to be honest about it than
to have to tell them last minute that you can’t make it. When people ask for
your opinion, you should be honest. ______18______For instance, if you don’t like your friend’s shirt, respond with, “I really
like you in blue instead,” rather than, “I hate it, it’s ugly.”
l______19______ If you see value in making others laugh and keep yourself
positive, you’ll be a happier person, making others drawn to you as a result. A
great way to remind you to laugh more is to have daily jokes on your phone or
email. Set them for a time of day when you notice yourself start to feel
drained.
lHave
confidence in your body. You
don’t have to have the “perfect body” to be confident in it. People will be
more attracted to you if you dress well and carry yourself well. If you need a
little boost, place posters around your mirror that remind you of
the charming parts of your body. _______20_______
A. Speak in apositive
way.
B. Make laughing a
priority.
C. Remember, there is
atime and place for humor.
D. There is difference
between being frankand rude, though.
E. Focus on these rather than
whatyou’re self-conscious about.
F. Actually, developing
engaging personalities is not that far out of reach.
GBut having charming appearance is only
skin-deep and far from enough.

47. 阅读下面短文,根据所给情节进行续写,使之构成一个完整的故事。
I love to
play the piano and I greatly enjoy performing my songs, so when the annual
winter recital was canceled, I was disappointed. I had looked forward to it for
a long time and had already prepared two of my best songs.
My mom
had a wonderful idea, however, to turn this disappointing letdown into
something worthwhile. “You can perform your songs at Carriage House Senior
Living,” my mom suggested brightly. “I’m sure the seniors there who do not have
families visit them that often, would really appreciate the music and you could
play more than just two songs.”
I
immediately thought this was a great idea. One of the things I did not like
about the recitals was that I was limited to playing just a couple of songs.
Playing the piano at Carriage House seemed like a win-win situation because not
only would I get to play more songs, but I would also have the chance to cheer
up the residents there with some lively tunes.
My mom
called Carriage House and made arrangements for me to perform. In the coming
days, I worked especially hard to polish up fifteen pieces that I thought the
crowd would enjoy, including many old classics.
When the
much-anticipated day finally arrived, my family and I drove to Carriage House.
Walking through the enormous double doors, we stepped into an entryway that
overlooked the spacious grand dining room. Right at the entrance to the dining
room stood the piano as if it were just waiting to make some music to liven the
place up a bit. At nearly every table several gray-haired women or men were
seated enjoying their dinner and the company that the crowded room provided.
Despite the conversations going on at various tables though, isolation hung
like a dark cloud in the room.
Almost
immediately, we were greeted by an old woman with a walker who introduced
herself as Phyllis in charge of Carriage House. She welcomed me and led me to
the stage.
注意:
1. 续写词数应为150左右;
2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
As I sat down on the bench,
I pressed a key on the piano and was surprised to hear no sound.

Nervousness melted away and
I started to enjoy the performance with the old.
