文章大意:本文为一篇说明文。文章介绍了三个著名的,但是因受到人类活动而陷入困境的地标。

When places are well-known and popular— historical and modern alike— we might take it for granted that they’ll be around forever. But sadly, many of the world’s best known and culturally significant landmarks are in trouble.

Mount Kilimanjaro’s peak

This mountain, one of the Seven Summits, proves that even giants can fall to climate change due to the vast amounts of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere. While the mountain itself, located in Tanzania, isn’t in danger at present, its iconic snow cap might disappear—and shockingly soon. Research found that the snow cap had lost 85% of the total area of its ice fields between 1912 and 2007, and the remaining ice could be history as early as 2030.

Machu Picchu

Located in southern Peru, Machu Picchu is the remains of a huge stone castle that was built during the 15th century. These unbelievable Incan ruins are widely considered one of the must-see spots in South America. However, the site has been a victim of over-tourism, seeing the harmful effects of the crowds it gets as they wear down the structures. In addition, the area surrounding Machu Picchu has seen rapid development of the cities, as well as mudslides and fires, in recent years, leading UNESCO to work for its protection.

Everglades National Park

This stunning Floridian wildlife reserve has sadly found itself fighting for its life in recent years. As ‘the largest subtropical wilderness reserve’ in North America, according to UNESCO, it’s been a beloved travel destination for American citizens for decades, but the damage of time and human activity have not been kind to it. Its survival first came into question after it was destroyed by Hurricane Andrew in 1993. But it’s human influence that has become the primary threat, as water flow to the site has decreased and the impacts of pollution have increased, resulting in harmful algal blooms (赤潮). Its vast, diverse wildlife is more threatened than ever before.

16. Which problem does Mount Kilimanjaro face?
A.Global warmingB.City development.
C.Over-tourismD.Ice pollution.
17. What do these three places have in common?
A.They are the impacts of pollution and mudslides.
B.They are destroyed severely due to over-tourism.
C.They are famous but affected by human activities.
D.They are considered as victims of global warming.
18. What is threatened by human activity in Everglades National Park?
A.Lack of popularity.B.Hurricane Andrew.
C.Algal blooms.D.Diverse wildlife.

文章大意:本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了少女米凯拉在索契冬奥会女子障碍滑雪项目中展现惊人实力,源于自幼刻苦训练,对滑雪的无比热爱与追求,以及严格自我要求,终成滑雪界闪亮新星。

At the Winter Olympic Games in Sochi, Russia, halfway in the women’s slalom (障碍滑雪) race, 18-year-old Mikaela Shiffrin took a commanding lead over the greatest women’s slalom skiers in the world. On her final run, she burst from the start house at a breakneck speed, snaking around the poles in crazy rhythm.

Skiing has always been a significant part of Mikaela’s life. Her mom raced and coached skiing and her dad ski raced all through college. The Shiffrins taught Mikaela and her brother, Taylor, to ski at a very young age. At the age of two and a half, Mikaela made her first ski run on plastic skis. From ages 8 to 11, she worked hard, practicing hundreds of training runs on small hills repeatedly to develop the correct techniques of slalom skiing.

When Mikaela was 11, she attended the Burke Mountain Academy, a Vermont boarding school for skiers. She took classes, studied, and practiced her skiing crazily. According to Kirk Dwyer, Burke Mountain Academy headmaster, “It was the degree of Mikaela’s effort to be the best that distinguished her from others. Her commitment to conditioning, having proper sleep, eating correctly, doing the drills, and watching video was unusual for an 11 to 13-year-old. Mikaela practiced more than anyone and believed in herself then and now.”

By the time she was 17, she had already won her first World Cup race.

Working hard is a full-time job for Mikaela. Even her off-season is work time. In the summer, when Mikaela is off the ski slopes and in the gym, her daily training consists of six to seven hours of weight lifting, swimming, and biking to improve her core strength and flexibility. She does all of this so that she can dash down slopes at speeds topping 50 miles per hour while cutting back and forth around gates with astonishing precision.

“If you have passion for your targets, whatever they are,” she says, “the sky is the limit. Give it your all!”

19. What can we learn from paragraph 2?
A.Mikaela came from a skiing family.
B.Mikaela’s mother taught her to ski first.
C.Mikaela trained harder than her brother.
D.Mikaela’s father coached skiing in colleges.
20. Why were headmaster Kirk Dwyer’s words cited?
A.To stress Mikaela was a crazy teenager.
B.To show Mikaela’s distinct personality.
C.To praise the good students in his school.
D.To highlight Mikaela’s great devotion to training.
21. Which of the following words can best describe Mikaela?
A.Talented and wise.B.Creative and determined.
C.Flexible and brave.D.Determined and self-disciplined.
22. What does Mikaela Shiffrin’s story convey?
A.Practice makes perfect.
B.Not to advance is to go back.
C.He who laughs last laughs best.
D.Actions speak louder than words.

Our most commonly held code for success is broken. Conventional wisdom(普遍看法)holds that if we work hard we will be more successful,and if we are more successful,then we’ll be happy. If we can just find that great job,win that next promotion,lose those five pounds,happiness will follow. But recent discoveries in the field of positive psychology have shown that this code is actually backward:Happiness fuels success,not the other way around. When we are positive,our brains become more engaged,creative,motivated,energetic,and productive at work. These discoveries have been repeatedly proved by rigid research in psychology and neuroscience(神经科学),management studies,and the bottom lines of organizations around the globe.

In The Happiness Advantage,Shawn Achor,who spent over a decade living,researching,and lecturing at Harvard University,draws on his own research—including one of the largest studies of happiness and potential at Harvard and others at companies like UBS to fix this broken code. Using stories and case studies from his work with CEOs of Fortune 500 in 42 countries,Achor explains how we can reprogram our brains to become more positive in order to gain a competitive ability at work.

Based on seven practical,actionable principles that have been tried and tested everywhere from classrooms to boardrooms,stretching from Argentina to Zimbabwe,he shows us how we can capitalize on The Happiness Advantage to improve our performance and maximize our potential.

A must-read for everyone trying to stand out in a world of increasing workloads and stress,The Happiness Advantage isn’t only about how to become happier at work. It’s about how to get the benefits of a happier and more positive mode of thinking to achieve the extraordinary in our work and in our lives.

23. What do we know about the new discoveries in Paragraph1?
A.Conventional code for success is totally useless.
B.The more we are successful, the happier we are.
C.Positive psychology is really backward.
D.Happiness contributes greatly to success.
24. Why did Shawn Achor write the book The Happiness Advantage?
A.To reprogram one’s brain to be healthier.
B.To make people more positive and competitive.
C.To study stories and cases of CEOs.
D.To make lectures at Harvard University.
25. The underlined phrase“capitalize on”in Paragraph 3 is closest in meaning to________.
A.provide fund forB.make full use of
C.in search ofD.stand out for
26. What is the write’s purpose of writing the passage?
A.To help people stand out in the world.
B.To arouse people’s sense of happiness.
C.To help people decrease the work stress.
D.To strongly recommend the book.

文章大意:这是一篇说明文。文章告诉我们确保美妙的迪拜旅行的五条建议。

No matter how many times you go, Dubai always has something new in store for its natives and tourists. Let’s take a look at a few must-dos for your first time in this impressive city in the United Arab Emirates!

●Hit the famous Dubai Mall.

Any shopaholic (购物狂) worth their salt knows about the Dubai Mall, one of the most famous and the most expensive shopping centres in the world.     27     However, even if you’re not in the mood to spend your savings in hundreds of luxury stores, there are other fun options.

●Mind your manners.

While you’re searching for the next adventure, make sure you follow some basic rules of conduct that the local law prescribes. For example, if you’re travelling with your significant other, public displays of affection are strictly forbidden.     28     So make sure that your attitude is appropriate for the city’s expectations and cultural norms.

    29    

Although you’ll find many tourists wearing clothes considered not entirely polite by the locals, there are certain rules that are strictly implemented in restaurants, malls, and entertainment centres. So, if you put on something considered inappropriate or revealing, you risk being asked to leave a place.

●Save some time for Jumeirah Beach.

Situated conveniently close to Burj al Arab, this spectacular stretch of the coast is a perfect way to spend some time sunbathing and enjoying the warm waters of the Persian Gulf.     30     In addition, those looking to stay away from the sun can enjoy the many bars next to the beach.

●Prepare your palate for Emirati cuisine.

Have you ever had a chance to sample Al Machboos, camel meat, or Manousheh? Arabic cuisine has some of the most extraordinary delicacies you could possibly imagine, few of which are prepared in the same manner outside of their native lands.     31    

A.Jumeirah Beach is about 10 kilometres long.
B.Pay attention to your dressing requirements.
C.If you’re travelling with kids, you’ll find the beach perfect.
D.Try the authentic Arabic coffee for a flavourful taste of the East.
E.Dubai is indeed a destination packed with adventure and culture.
F.Getting drunk or using offensive hand gestures are all illegal activities.
G.Home to around 1,300 stores, it is a wonderful shopping place.
