Its not that simple, of course. Hand washing remains your best defense against picking up illnesses, and sleep is a strong defense too. But what you eat does play an important part. Though it isnt because of just one or two foods, what you eat in your daily diet have an effect on how weak or strong your immunity is.Wed better eat fruits and vegetables every day. They contain key vitamins needed in the immune system. For example, Vitamin C and A in foods help immune system work well to keep us healthy. Remember that eating the actual fruit or veggie is better than eating single-vitamin supplements.Getting too little protein can weaken your immune system. Protein-rich foods supply the amino acids(氨基酸) you need to build important proteins in the body. Animal foods like beef and pork also contain zinc(锌), which your body uses to make t-cells.Fermented foods are foods that are naturally protected by bacteria, and theyre good for the micro biome. Thats the name for the bacteria that live in your stomach, where a lot of cells in immunity actually live. Fermented foods like yogurt help beneficial bacteria develop fast in the stomach, leaving less room for harmful bacteria.21. What does paragraph 1 mainly tell us?A. Hand washing is necessary.B. Illnesses make people bored.C. Immunity has much to do with your diet.D. More sleep does good to health.22. Why does the writer suggest we eat fruits and vegetables every day?A. They are rich in vitamins we need.B. Vitamin A is helpful for immunity.C. Fruits supply our body with Vitamin C only.D. Eating single-vitamin foods does little good.23. What is the main idea of the text?A. Different foods have different uses.B. Fruits and vegetables keep us healthy.C. Many illnesses do harm to the immunity.D. Proper daily diet protects our immune system. BIn 1978, I was 18 and was working as a nurse in a small town about 270km away from Sydney, Australia. I was looking forward to having five fays off from duty. Unfortunately, the only one train a day back to my home in Sydney had already left. So I thought Id hitch a ride(搭便车).I waited by the side of the highway for three hours but no one stopped for me. Finally, a man walked over and introduced himself as Gordon. He said that although he couldnt give me a lift, I should come back to his house for lunch. He noticed me standing for hours in the November heat and thought I must be hungry. I was doubtful as a young girl but he assured(使放心)me I was safe, and he also offered to help me find a lift home afterwards. When we arrived at his house, he made us sandwiches. After lunch, he helped me find a lift home.Twenty-five years later, in 2003, while I was driving to a nearby town one day, I saw an elderly man standing in the glaring heat, trying to hitch a ride. I thought it was another chance to repay someone for the favour Id been given decades earlier. I pulled over and picked him up. I made him comfortable on the back seat and offered him some water.After a few moments of small talk, the man said to me, “You havent changed a bit, even your red hair is still the same.” I couldnt remember where Id met him. He then told me he was the man who had given me lunch and helped me find a lift all those years ago. It was Gordon.24. The author had to hitch a ride one day in 1978 because .A. her work delayed her trip to SydneyB. she was going home for her holidaysC. the town was far away from SydneyD. she missed the only train back home25. Which of the following did Gordon do according to Paragraph 2?A. He helped the girl find a rideB. He gave the girl a ride back home.C. He bought sandwiches for the girlD. He watched the girl for three hours.26.

What does the author want to tell the readers through the story?A. Giving sometimes produces nice resultsB. Those who give rides will be rapid.C. Good manners bring about happinessD. People should offer free rides to others. CMost rain forests lie close to the equator(赤道), where the climate is often mild and there are long hours of sunshine. The warmth of the land heats the air above, causing it to rise and tiny drops of water to fall as rain. The rainfall can reach at least 98 inches a year. This wet, warm world with plenty of sunlight is perfect for plants to grow, so the trees grow fast with green leaves all the year round. The trees themselves also have an effect on the climate. They gather water from the soil and pass it out into the air through their leaves. The wet air then forms clouds, which hang over the treetops like smoke. These clouds protect the forest from the daytime heat and nighttime cold of nearby deserts, keeping temperatures fit for plant growth. Rain forests slightly farther away from the equator remain just as warm, but they have a dry season of three months or more when little rain falls. Tree leaves fall during this dry season and new leaves grow when the wet season or monsoon(雨季) begins. Thus these areas are known as the “monsoon forest”. Another type of rain forest grows on tropical mountains. It is often called the “cloud forest” because clouds often hang over the trees like fog. The rain forest is the ideal place for the growth of many different trees. Most of them depend on animals to eat their fruits and spread their seeds. When the fruits are eaten, the seeds inside them go undamaged through animals stomachs and are passed out in their droppings. The seeds lying on the forest floor then grow into new trees. 28. The climate of the rain forests near the equator is _.A. mild, wet and windyB. hot, rainy and foggyC. hot, wet and cloudyD. warm, wet and sunny29. We can learn from the passage that _.A. tree leaves are green all the time in the monsoon forestB. there is a dry season in the cloud forest on tropical mountainsC. clouds help the plants in the rain forest near the deserts to growD. the formation of climate in the rain forest has little to do with the trees30. According to the passage, _ play the most important role in the spreading of seeds.A. animalsB. droppingsC. fruitsD. winds31. This passage is most likely to be found in _.A. a travel guideB. a story bookC. a technical reportD. a geography book DUnlike any other art form, movies require hundreds of people and piles of money. With such financial risks, studios(电影公司) want to attract as many people as possible and make a big profit(利润). I often complain that chasing profits ruins movies. Imagine if Italian painter Leonardo da Vinci(1452-1519) had to satisfy investors for The Last Supper.In May, Paramount released(发行) its trailer(预告片) for a live-action Sonic the Hedgehog movie. Everyone was excited me too! I love this character, in part because hes ridiculous(荒谬的). Hedgehogs(刺猬) arent fast, nor are they blue. Had the games designers ever actually seen a hedgehog? Who cares? Sonic has always looked cool. Nobody would play a video game featuring a realistic hedgehog character.When I saw the movie trailer, though, I worried. Sonics eyes were too far apart and his big teeth looked like they would eat my fingers. His body looked like a child wearing pajamas(睡衣). Sonic didnt look cool. He looked like the half-human result of a failed genetic(基因的) experiment.You know the internet. People there will fight you for saying the sky is blue. This time, however, the internet stood together: Sonic looked TERRIBLE. People joked about it all over social media. Paramount couldnt ignore this online outrage(愤怒) and quickly announced a redesign, at great cost to the company.At first, I thought it was awesome. Back when I was a kid, there was no social media. We would have been stuck with creepy, crappy(怪异且蹩脚的) Sonic and his terrifying teeth. After the redesign, Sonic looks cooler than ever. Im glad the studio broke its budget to get Sonic right.But Im a little worried, too. What if this starts a trend(趋势)? What if directors keep going to Sina Weibo or Twitter to make people happy? One thing Ive learned in life is that if you try to make everybody happy, nobody will be happy.If an art form only exists to make money by giving audiences what they expect, can we really call it “art” anymore? Some of my favorite movies are ones that nobody liked at first. Usually, what makes them good is the same thing that made them unpopular. Studios might end up with lots of money but we would end up with a lot of bad movies.32. What is the authors main purpose in writing the text?A. To describe his love of the hedgehog, Sonic.B. To promote the movie Sonic the Hedgehog.C. To complain about how bad Sonic looked in an earlier film trailer.D. To express his concern over studios attempts to please audiences.33. Why did the author get worried when he saw the movie trailer?A. Sonic looked awful in the movie.B. The story for the movie was boring.C. They chose the wrong actor to play Sonic.D. Sonic looked like a realistic hedgehog.34. What does the underlined word “this” in the second-to-last paragraph refer to?A. Making an effort to make profits.B. Posting movie trailers on social media.C. Making adjustments based on the audiences preferences.D. Creating good-looking images for movie characters.35. Which of the following would the author probably agree with?A. Great works of art are always disfavored at first.B. A good movie could be unpopular at first.C. A great movie is one that reflects its audiences tastes.D. The best movies will end up with great profits. 第二节（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分）根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。Of all the traditional Chinese festivals, the Spring Festival is perhaps the most colourful and important.To celebrate the biggest and most important festival, people do a lot of preparations for it.
