阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出最佳选项。 In 1978, I was 18 and was working as a nurse in a small town about 270 km away from Sydney, Australia. I was looking forward to having five days off from duty. Unfortunately, the only one train a day back to my home in Sydney had already left. So I thought I'd 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 couldn't 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 favor I'd 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 haven't changed a bit, even your red hair is still the same.” I couldn't remember where I'd 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. （1）The author had to hitch a ride one day in 1978 because ________.

阅读理解 Recently, people in US education have gotten extremely worried because a new report has shown that American students have a math problem. The 2015 Program for International Student Assessment(评估)(PISA) shows math scores in the US getting lower and no improvement in science or reading. PISA tests 15-year-olds from different countries and regions in their math, science and reading skills. About 540, 000 students from 72 countries and regions took part in the assessment in 2015. US scores in reading and science were about the same as three years ago, leaving Americans near the middle of the bigger group. But the situation in math is much more worrying. The US average score was 470, below the OECD(经合组织)test average of 490, meaning the US was No. 40 among the 72 countries and areas. It was 12 points lower than in 2012 and 18 points lower than in 2009. So, what is going on with American students' math skills? One reason may be that the US does not teach math in enough depth. "Students are often good at answering the first part of a problem in the United States, "said Andreas Schleicher, director of education and skills at OECD. "But as soon as students have to go deeper and answer the more complicated part of a problem, they have difficulties. "In comparison, many high-performing countries and regions in math teach a lot less but focus in much greater depth, especially when you look at East Asia, Japan and Singapore, according to Schleicher. Another reason may be the fact that many people in the US are unwilling to travel to foreign countries to learn better teaching practices. "One of our biggest challenges in the US is that the teachers are not going out and seeing what high-performing countries do differently, "said Wendy Kopp, who started Teach for America, in a news program. （1）When it comes to the 2015 PISA results, people in US education are more concerned about . A.the US average score B.the differences from the previous PISA C.American students' performance in math D.American students' situation in science and reading skills （2）What can we learn from the passage? A.American students are not interested in simple math problems. B.American students are unwilling to go abroad for further study. C.American math teachers envy high-performing countries better teaching skills. D.American math teachers seldom teach students how to solve complicated problems. （3）What is the main purpose of the passage? A.To inform people of American students' 2015 PISA results. B.To analyze the causes of American students' problems with math. C.To stress the importance of learning math well to America students. D.To give American math teachers some advice on how to teach math. |

阅读理解 Mike Miles hadn't had a stable job in years. He bounced around from one position to another, never sure when his last day would be. Sometimes, he lost a position with less than a day's notice. This wasn't due to a poor work ethic?from arriving early to staying late, Miles says he did everything he could to build a good relationship with employers. But because Miles had a criminal record, he was always cut loose when it came time to let staff go. It wasn't until October 2015, nearly a decade after his release from prison, that a cousin told Miles about Lancaster Food Company, a local business that focuses on hiring people released from prison. Hoping this would clear up what felt like a thick cloud of uncertainty over his future, Miles submitted an application. He got an interview, and he then began a new job. Miles' scenario is rare in Lancaster, where the poverty rate holds steady at 30%. This figure riled Charlie Crystle, Lancaster's co-founder and CEO. Crystle was raised in Lancaster but left in 1986 to purse a college degree and later, a career in technology. He co-founded four tech companies, one of which sold for millions of dollars back in 2000. Crystle is skeptical that many of Lancaster's low-income residents can get started the way he did. He believes food production is a key way to meet former offenders who may lack a college degree. Lancaster produces products like bread. Nowadays the company is rapidly expanding; however, at just 16 full-time employees, including administration and owners, it doesn't lower the city's poverty rate. Crystle says he wants to inspire other companies to rethink their current practices and start conversations around minimum wage and employment opportunities for everyone, including ex-offenders. Dan Jurman, who chairs the city's Commission to Combat Poverty, believes that Crystle's business is a great way to make this happen. "None of us can handle these issues alone, " he said. （1）The purpose of the first paragraph is to show __________ . A.a man's difficulty in living a stable life B.an increasingly competitive workplace C.a decrease in employment opportunities D.the reason why Lancaster Food Company was founded （2）What does the underlined word "riled" in Paragraph 3 most probably mean? A.Annoyed. B.Discouraged. C.Amused. D.Embarrassed. （3）What words can best describe Charlie Crystle according to the text? A.Outgoing, kind and considerate. B.Wealthy but a little bit greedy. C.Humorous, diligent and ambitious. D.Successful and socially responsible. （4）In Dan Jurman's opinion, what is the biggest achievement of Lancaster Food Company? A.It greatly increases employment opportunities. B.It suggests an idea for fighting poverty. C.It provides a way to handle ex-offenders. D.It creates a stable environment for people. |

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。 How to Say Goodbye Knowing how and when to say goodbye is often difficult, even in informal situations. But learning to say goodbye appropriately is a skill that will help you keep your relationships and let people know you care. Read on to learn how to recognize opportunities when you leave. When you're at any kind of party or gathering, or even a one-on-one conversation, it can be difficult to get away. Learning to recognize good opportunities to leave will make a short-term goodbye much easier. Watch body language. People don't like telling you that they'd like you to leave. If the host of a party starts cleaning up, or withdraws (退出) from the conversation, gather your friends or belongings and make your exit. If someone starts checking their watch, or seems otherwise restless, it's also time to leave. Make plans to see each other again. Even saying, “See you at school tomorrow,” or “Can't wait to see you again at Christmas” keeps the goodbye light and focused forward. Tell the truth. Many people expect to come up with a “good excuse” when they're ready to leave. If you want to leave, just say, “I'm going to go now, see you later.” A. You don't need to. B. Set up a coffee date. C. Recognize when to leave. D. So try and watch for signals. E. It makes the goodbye easier. F. It's also easier than it seems sometimes. G. If you haven't already made plans, use it as an opportunity to make them. |

根据短文内容，从短文后的七个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。 It is said that farmers or peasants, especially those in developing countries, are often criticized for cutting down forests. But a new study suggests that many farmers recognize the value of keeping trees. Researchers using satellite images found at least ten percent trees cover on more than one billion hectares of farmland. Earlier estimates were much lower but incomplete. The authors of the new study say it may still underestimate the true extent worldwide. The study found the most trees cover in South America. North Africa and West Asia have the least. The study found that climate conditions alone could not explain the amount of trees cover in different areas. There are areas with few trees but also few people, and areas with many trees and many people. The findings suggest that things like land rights, markets or government policies can influence tree planting and protection. Dennis Garrity heads the World Agroforestry Center. The problem, he says, is that policy makers and planners have been slow to recognize this and to support such efforts. The satellite images may not show what the farmers are using the trees for, but trees provide nuts, fruit, wood and other products. Even under drought (干旱) conditions, trees can often provide food and a way to earn money until the next growing season. Some trees act as natural fertilizers. They take nitrogen (氮气) out of the air and put it in the soil. Scientists at the Center say the use of fertilizer trees can reduce the need for chemical nitrogen by up to three-fourths. Trees also capture carbon dioxide, a gas linked to climate change. A. Nor could the size of nearby populations, meaning people and trees can live together. B. He says farmers are acting on their own to protect and plant trees. C. Almost all of it is covered by trees. D. They also help prevent soil loss and protect water supplies. E. He devotes most of his time to making people realize its importance. F. That is nearly half of the farmland in the world. G. Next comes Africa south of the Sahara, followed by Southeast Asia. |
