13、Four years ago, Chinese skater Wu Dajing introduced himself to the skating world by winning a silver medal at the Sochi Olympic Winter Games. At this year’s Pyeong Chang Olympics, Wu not only returned, but also made history.
On Feb 22th, 2018, Wu won the gold medal in the men’s short-track 500-metre race. He set a new world record with a time of 39.584 seconds. He also became the first Chinese man to take home an Olympic short-track gold medal. BBC said Wu’s win was “flawless”, because he was much faster than all of the other skaters.
“I didn’t give them a chance and I kept my speed from the start,” he told the media after the match.
But China’s short-track teams didn’t do well in general at the Games. Chinese skaters in the women’s 500 metres, 3000-metre relay and men’s 1500 metres all failed to take home the gold. Wu was China’s biggest hope, which put a lot of pressure on him. But he proved himself with his great performance.
Wu is now known as a highly talented skater. But things were not always that way. When Wu joined the national team in 2010, he was seen as almost “nothing” compared to gifted skaters like Zhou Yang and Fan Kexin, as his coaches said at the time. Their comments made him quite upset. But as the saying goes, “Winners never quit and quitters never win”. Wu didn’t want to give up and worked as hard as he could. He practiced skating all year round. He even didn’t return to his hometown for the holidays for 10 years. “I believe in myself,” he told the media after his match at the Olympics.
1．What does the underlined word “flawless” mean?
A．Ordinary B．Valuable C．Perfect D．Difficult
2．According to the passage, which of the following is RIGHT?
A．Wu won a gold medal at the Sochi Olympic Winter Games four years ago.
B．Wu broke the world record with a time of 39.584 seconds and made history.
C．Wu’s coaches placed great hope on him when he joined the national team.
D．Chinese skaters in women’s 500 metres, 3000-metre relay took home the gold.
3．What does the last paragraph mainly tell us?
A．The national team and coaches regarded Wu as a talented skater all the way.
B．Wu kept on practicing skating all year round even in the holidays for 10 years.
C．Zhou Yang and Fan Kexin were more and more hard-working on skating than Wu Dajing.
D．It is the hardwork, confidence and strong will that have made Wu a champion.
4．Which one might be the best title of this passage?
A．From Zero to Skating Hero B．The Dream of a Skater, Wu
C．Pyeong Chang Winner Olympics D．Rising of China’s Bright Skiing Star

14、On a hot African morning, Leila was lying on her stomach and an elephant was walking towards her. Leila waited. Then she pushed the button on her camera. “And I got my best photo of an elephant ever, by lying under my car,” Leila explained. “I wanted to get close to the elephants, but of course this was dangerous; they had their babies with them. So every morning I used to park my car in the open near the path (小道). They used to take the same path every morning when they left the water hole. After a week, they were used to seeing my car. So the next morning, I lay under it and got my photo!”
Many of the best wildlife photos come from good planning. In Africa, photographers set up their hides (隐匿处) near water holes. They also set up hides near forest paths, as animals use the same paths every night. For bird-watching, many lakes have hides. Inside the hides, bird-watchers can watch all day in the shade (荫处) out of the wind and rain.
Good wildlife photos are needed for books, postcards, magazines and newspapers. But a success rate of 1 in 20 is good.
1．（小题1）Why did Leila lie under her car on the stomach?
A．Because she wanted to sleep.
B．Because she wanted to take photos but was afraid of the animals.
C．Because it’s easy to see the elephants.

2．（小题2）How can photographers take good photos?
A．By making good preparation.

A．All animals go to water holes at night.

16、 Researchers have developed paper that can be printed with UV light (紫外线)， free from the need for ink (油墨). People can clear the information away on the light-printable paper by heating it to 120°C and it can be reused more than 80 times.
The research was carried out in order to reduce the effects of paper production on deforestation (滥砍滥伐). The researchers, from Shandong University in China and the University of California, Riverside, said that the secret behind the technology is a color-changing chemical. A thin coating of the chemical can be used on usual paper and turn it into a reusable, light-printable one. Heating the paper for 10 minutes can help clear the information away more quickly.
Professor Yadong Yin, a chemistry professor at the University of California and a co-author of the study, said, “The greatest importance of our work is the development of a new technology to produce an ink-free rewritable paper that has the same feel and appearance as usual paper. Our work is believed to have great economic and environmental influences on the modem society.” Paper production has a bad influence on the environment. It’s the main cause of industrial pollution and paper thrown away by people makes up about 40% of landfills where waste is buried under the ground.
It is predicted that light-printable paper will be inexpensive in the future. The printing process is also more cost-effective than the usual one as no ink is needed. Most importantly, it can be reused many times, which greatly reduces the cost.
1．Why did researchers do the research?
A．To make more money by selling the paper. B．To save more ink and more money.
C．To make people interested in writing on the paper. D．To stop people from cutting down more trees.
2．What does the underlined word “it” refer to?
A．Usual paper. B．The chemical. C．The technology. D．Ink.
3．What can’t we know from Paragraph 3?
A．The rewritable paper looks the same as the usual paper. B．Wasted papa: is the most serious pollution.
C．The research will make a difference to our economic development. D．Our environment will be influenced by the rewritable paper.
4．What are the advantages of the rewritable paper?
a. It can be recycled many times.
b. It can help save money.
c. It is environmentally-friendly.
d. It will help save time.
A．abc B．bed C．acd D．abd

17、Very hot weather is common in many parts of the world. Although hot weather just makes most people hot, it can cause medical problems and death.
Floods, storms and other terrible natural events kill thousands of people every year. And we hear much about them in news reports. We generally hear little about heat, which experts say may be nature’s most dangerous killer.
Health experts say that since the year 1900, very hot weather has killed more people in the United States than any other natural event.

Besides drinking lots of cool water, doctors say there are some other things to do to protect against the health dangers of heat. Stay out of the sun, if possible. Wear loose(宽松的)and light-colored clothes. Wear a hat while in the sun. Eat fewer hot and heavy foods. And, when possible, cook foods during cooler time of the day. If possible, rest more often.

18、Text messaging, or "texting", which allows people to send and receive messages on mobile phones, becomes very popular today.
The advantages of texting are obvious. Texting helps to save money. If you have a few words to greet your families and friends on their birthdays or on some important festivals, sending messages can be cheaper than phone calling. Texting helps to save time. Even if you want to send a message to 100 people you can do it in one second. Texting helps you to "talk" to someone when he is too busy to answer the phone. Texting can also help you to "talk" to someone secretly if you don't want others to hear what you are talking on the phone. These advantages are so amazing that many people are crazy about it. They hold mobile phones in hands all day long, send dozens of messages each day, and even text while driving or walking. However, texting has its disadvantage. Junk messages may come into your mobile phone box now and then. When your phone box gets too full, you can't receive any more messages.
