第二部分 阅读理解（满分20分）阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中，选出最佳选项。
A
As a volunteer, Charlie Starbuck has helped to plant tress on the streets of San Francisco. He has them in just about every part of this city. Walk a block or two in virtually any neighborhood, and you will find Mr. Starbuck’s fingerprints are there. Whatever tree species you might see there, chances are excellent that Starbuck helped plant it with his own hands.
Starbuck has volunteered with a citywide tree-planting program since 1981; that’s over thirty years of weekly plantings without pay. “For Charlie to be that consistent,” says Doug Wildman, program director of San Francisco’s Friends of the Urban Forest (FUF). “Well, he is our rock.”
Despite all its charm, San Francisco is not particularly green. Sandy soil, salty air, lots of wind and narrow streets are common explanations for its low tree count. For more than three decades, Starbuck has been on a mission to change that. He acts as a guide and teacher to home-owners and volunteers and teaches them how to plant trees. He loves to talk about trees. “My current favorite is the strawberry tree,” he says. Tree experts here are constantly on the look out for species that can handle the local climate. The strawberry tree, with its mock red fruit that hangs in clusters, is in high demand.
Care is relatively simple. Most of San Francisco has sandy soil, so it is almost impossible to overwater the trees, Starbuck says. Just before a young tree goes in the ground, Starbuck uses a box cutter to make vertical slices down each side of the root ball so the roots don’t continue to grow in a circular way, as they do in their containers.
He is also particular about staking(用柱子支撑)the tree. Three poles are driven in, and then soft cloth straps are attached to each pole so that the tree can wave a bit. The ability to wave actually strengthens the trunk.
While the city may still be short on trees, nearly 1,000 new trees took root here last year thanks to FUF. It receives nearly half of its funds from the federal government and most of the rest from state and local governments, individuals, corporations and foundations. On a walk through his own neighborhood, Pacific Heights, Starbuck has a tree story for almost every block. His destination now is a corner of Nob Hill. “All you used to see here were concrete and parked cars,” Starbuck explains. “But now,” he says with pride, “you can see some green.”
Starbuck was part of a team that planted magnolias(木兰)recently there. “it’s the before and after,” Starbuck says. “That’s what it’s about for me.”
1、What does Doug Wildman think of Starbuck?
A．He is the founder of FUF
B．He is dependable volunteer of FUF
C．He is hard to get along with
D．He has set an example to others
2、Why is probably Starbuck involved in this voluntary work?
A．Because he wants to plant more trees
B．Because he hopes to impress the importance of planting trees on people
C．Because he hopes to change the situation San Francisco faces
D．Because he wants to get more support from the government
3、What does the last paragraph imply about Starbuck?
A．He can predict what the future is like
B．He can sum up what happened in the past
C．He considers it his duty to bring changes
D．He understands the past and future
4、What is the purpose of this passage?
A．To explain the roles of trees in big cities
B．To call on people to plant more trees in cities
C．To describe the bad situation of San Francisco
D．To introduce a man’s effort to plant trees

B
Fitness bands like the Apple Watch and the Fitbit aim to track something like heart rate.
But early models weren’t all that accurate. We thought of them a little bit like random number generators(生成器). They really didn’t seem to be providing anything that bore any relationship to heart rate.
Euan Ashley, a cardiologist(心脏病专家), studies wearables at Stanford University. He and his colleagues have now tested seven newer fitness bands, from brands like Apple, Fitbit and others and he says those heart rate statistics have gotten much better. "Yeah we were pleasantly surprised actually by how good the accuracy of the heart rate monitoring was."
For most of the devices, the error rate was less than 5%, which is good enough for your doctor. But where all the devices failed to measure up was estimating calories burned. Even the most accurate devices were off by 30%, compared to lab measurements of energy consumption. One device was off by more than 90%.
If you think about going to the gym and working out for an hour and maybe that’s around 400 calories, then in reality that could be anything from 200 to 800. And that’s a big difference if you’re thinking about somebody who’s incorporating those estimates into their lifestyle and particular thinking about what to eat that evening based on the workout they did that afternoon.
The results are in the Journal of Personalized Medicine. The reason for the discrepancy, Ashley says, could be that we all burn energy at different rates and that’s hard to calculate from simple input statistics like weight and height.
Some people are incredibly efficient and look incredibly elegant when they run. And others really clearly look like they’re burning a lot more calories to cover the same amount of ground. So if you own a wearable, it’s probably safe to trust the heart data. But what it can’t tell you is whether your time on the treadmill(跑步机) really justifies that chocolate bar.
1、What does Euan Ashley say about the newer models of wearables?
A．They were all useless B．They were hardly effective
C．They were too expensive D．They were mostly accurate
2、What can we learn from Paragraph 4 and Paragraph 5?
A．For measuring heart rates, most fitness bands are not reliable
B．For measuring calories in exercise, most fitness bands are not reliable
C．We can base our lifestyle and diet on advice from doctors
D．We can base our lifestyle and diet on data from wearables
3、What is the author’s purpose in writing the text?
A．To remind readers to use fitness bands wisely
B．To promote the sale of popular wearables
C．To discuss the advantages of some popular wearables
D．To introduce some famous-brand fitness bands
