One fine day the Warthogs(疣猪）were walking among some trees. “Remember,” said Mr. Warthog, “this is a dangerous place. Always stick to the paths and never go off exploring things that don’t concern you.” Suddenly, a terrible noise came into their ears. “Baby warthogs, I’ve warned you before,” said Mrs Warthogs. “That wasn’t me,” said Baby Warthog. “ It was the lion up there!” Sure enough, a lion was hanging upside down from the tree above them. He was caught in a trap(陷阱）. “Please,” said lion, “let me down. I’ve been up for three days and I think I’m hungry and thirsty to death.” “How silly you think we are?’ said Mr. Warthog. “ If you are down, you will eat us!” “I promise I won’t !” pleased Lion. “I am so weak for food, so I am as harmless as a small cat.” So the warthogs undid the trap and set the lion free. “Thank you so much,” said Lion. “Dear Mr. Warthog, sweet Mrs. Warthog and lovely, delicious, good-enough-to-eat Baby Warthog, I am so grateful, I could just gobble you up!” Mr. Warthog didn’t like the sound of that. She didn’t like the way lion was looking at Baby Warthog and licking his lips either. “Like this?” said Mrs. Warthog, and she pulled hard so that the rope went tight and Lion was once again hanging upside down from the tree. “What did you do that for?” said Lion. “My family and I set you free,”said Mrs. Warthog. “ and you were going to thank us by eating Baby Warthog here! What an ungrateful guy you are!” The Warthogs turned their backs and walked away with their noses in the air. Lion hung upside down like that for another three days until Grass Mouse came by. “Excuse me,” said Lion, who was now so weak for lack of food that his voice was just a whisper. “Would you please be kind enough to help me down? I promise I won’t hurt you. Grass Mouse’s mother told him to stay away from lions, but she had also said that he should always help other animals in trouble. Grass Mouse climbed up the tree and with his sharp front teeth he gnawed through the rope that was holding lion. “Thank you so much,” said the Lion when he was back on the ground. Lion wasn’t going to make the same mistake twice, so instead of thinking about eating Grass Mouse, he promised to help him whenever he is in trouble. 【1】The Warthogs decided to help Lion at first because ___________. A.They liked Lion B.They were afraid of Lion C.Lion promised not to hurt them D.Lion looked weak 【2】Why did Mrs. Warthog trap lion again? A.Because Mrs. Warthog hated Lion.

I have just returned from a visit to my landlord, Mr. Heathcliff. I am delighted with the house I am renting from him, which suits me perfectly. Mr. Healthcliff is my only neighbor, and I think his characteris like mine. He does not like people either. When I introduced myself, he said nothing, but frowned, and did not encourage me to enter. After a while, however, he decided to invite me in. “Joseph!” he called. Joseph was an old servant (仆人). He looked crossly up at me as he took my horse. “God help us! A visitor!” he whispered to himself. Perhaps there were no other servants, I thought. And it seemed that Healthcliff hardly received guests. His house is called Wuthering Heights. The name means “a windswept house on a hill”, and it is a very good description. The trees around the house are bent by the north wind, which blows fiercely every day of the year. Fortunfately, the house is strongly built, and is not damaged even by the worst winter storms. Mr. Healthcliff and I entered the main room. We sat down by the fire, in scilence. “Joseph!” shouted Mr. Healthcliff. No answer came from the cellar, so he rushed down there, leaving me with several fierce-looking dogs. Suddenly one of them jumped angrily up at me, and in a moment all the others were attacking me. “Help! Mr. Healthcliff! Help!”I shouted. My landlord was nowhere to be seen, but luckily a woman ,who might be the housekeeper, rushed into the room to calm the dogs. “What is the matter?” Mr. Healthcliff asked me rudely, as he finally entered the room, accompanied by his man -servant. “Your dogs, sir!” I replied. “ You should leave a stranger with them. They’re dangerous.” “Come, come, Mr. Lockwood. Have some wine. We don’t often have strangers here. I’m afraid neither I nor my dogs are used to receiving them.” I could not feel angry after this, and accepted the wine. We sat drinking and talking together for a while. I suggested visiting him tomorrow. He did not seem eager to see me again,but I shall go anyway. He seems a fascinating man. 【1】What did Joseph mean when he said “ God help us! A visitor!” A.He was very surprised to have a visitor. B.He thought Mr. Lockwood was a new servant. C.He had waited for Mr. Lockwood for a long time. D.He was happy to make friends with Mr. Lockwood. 【2】Why was the house called “Wuthering Heights?” A.The weather is windy all the year round near the house. B.It is protected well by trees around it. C.The trees around it are bent by the north wind. D.It is especially designed to stand against strong wind. 【3】In which order should the following events be arranged? a.Mr. Lockwood introduced himself to Mr. Healthcliff. b.Mr. Lockwood and Mr. Healthcliff sat drinking and talking together. c.Mr. Healthcliff invited Mr. Lockwood into the house. d.Mr. Lockwood was attacked by some dogs. e.Mr. Lockwood and Mr. Healthcliff sat down by the fire, in silence. f.Mr. Healthcliff appeared in the main room with Joseph. A.a,c,f,b,d,e B.c,a,b,e,d,f C.a,c,e,d,f,b D.c,a,f,e,b,d 【4】What does the word “it: in Paragraph 5 refer to? A.The servant. B.The house. C.The wind.

Some people might think that online privacy（隐私）is a ,well, private matter. If you don’t want your information getting out online, don’t put it on social media. Simple, right? But keeping your information private isn’t just about your own choices. It’s about your friends’ choices, too. Results from a study show that, with the development of all kinds of social media,people may need to stop and think about just how much they control their personal information, and where the boundaries of their privacy are. When someone joins a social network, the first order of business is, of course, to find friends. To help the users to find their friends, many apps offer to import contact list(导入联系人清单）from someone’s phone or e-mail or Facebook, to find matches with people already in the network. “sharing those contact lists seems harmless,” says David Garcia, a computational social scientist at the Complexity Science Hub Vienna in Austria. “People giving contact lists, they’re not doing anything wrong.” he says. “ You are their friend. You give them the e-mail address and phone number.” most of the time, you probably want to stay in touch with the person, possibly even via the social media site. But the social network then has that information—whether or not the owner of it wants it to be shared. Social platforms’ ability to collect information into what are called shadow profiles first came to light with a Facebook bug in 2013. The bug accidentally shared the e-mail addresses and phone numbers of some 6 billion users with all of their friends, even when the information was public. Facebook immediately corrected the mistakes. But later, some users noticed that the phone numbers on their Facebook profiles had still been filled in—even though they had not given Facebook their digits. Instead, Facebook had collected the numbers from the contact lists innocently provided by their friends, and filled in the missing information for them. A shadow profile had become reality. It’s no surprise that a social platform could take names, e-mail addresses and phone numbers and match them up with other people on the same platform. But Garcia wondered if these shadow profiles could be extended to people not on the social platform at all. He turned to a social network called Friendster which was closed up in 2015. Friendster was launched in 2002. In 2008, the social site attracted more than 115 million users. But by 2009 people began to jump ship for other sites, and finally Friendster closed for good. However, by using the Internet Archive-- a nonprofit library, Garcia still found lots of users’ information about Friendster. “ You are not in full control of your privacy,” he concludes. If your friend is on a social platform, so are you. And you don’t have a choice in the matter. Garcia published his findings August 4 in Science Advance. 【1】The apps help us to find friends in the following ways EXCEPT __________. A.Though phone numbers B.though e-mail C.though Facebook D.though ID number 【2】What can you know about the Facebook bug in 2013? A.The bug shared all the person information of Facebook users to their friends. B.All the Facebook users find their phone numbers on their Facebook profiles. C.Few people knew Facebook would collect information into shadow profiles. D.Facebook refused to correct the bug. 【3】Why did Garcia turn to study Friendster? A.Because he showed a great interest in Friendster. B.Because Friendster is very popular among young people. C.Because he wanted to find whether shadow profile affected people not on social platform. D.Because his science center asked him to do study about that. 【4】What can we infer from the passage? A.With some media, we don’t need to make friends in the real world. B.You can keep your personal information as long as you don’t use social media. C.Facebook is widely used around the whole world. D.Even if you are not on a social platform, your information may still be shared. 【5】Which can be the best title of the passage? A.How to protect your personal information B.Respect online privacy C.Social media is not safe D.Online privacy stays just in your imagination |

阅读填空 You wait in a long queue in the supermarket, but when it’s finally your turn to pay, you can’t find enough money in your wallet.【1】 While you are bending down to look for them, the people behind you are getting angry. The cashier is tapping her fingers impatiently on the counter. 【2】 But the good news is: scientists have thought of a way to make queues shorter and paying for thing easier. They have invented an eye scanner. In the future, when you pay for food in the supermarket, an eye scanner will take a picture of your eyes and a computer will identify you. 【3】. Students at Venerable Bede School, England, have already got an eye scanner in their cafeteria. After the students choose the food they want, the scanner looks for their information and sends a list of food to their parents. 【4】 Also, parents pay for the meals at the end of the week, so the students don’t have to take money to school and wait in long queues to pay their lunch. If all shops had eye scanners, shopping would be easier. 【5】 So, it seems that it will be a while before most of us got our eyes scanned at the cashier. A. Sometimes shopping can be unpleasant. B. You take out your credit cards, but they fall on the floor. C. If students aren’t eating a healthy diet, their parents will know. D.
