highways in AmericaInterstate 405，just south of Los Angelesand there was no stopping itDriving south on the 405，near the airportS runway，was John Meffert，a fire department captainHe was heading home from his shift when suddenly a lowflying plane caught his eyeAfter he took a second glance，a thought crossed his mind：“This planes going to hit me”He was rightThe plane slammed into the road，popped up a few feet，and then clipped the front of Mefferts carIt finally stopped after hitting the divider(隔栏)Meffert pulled overHe was unhurt，and his car had received only a large scratch，so he turned his attention to the planeHe ran towards the smoke，and then he saw Franks wife，Janan Pisano，pop her head up on the passenger sideBy the time Meffert reached the aircraft，part of it was on fire and Janan，who was covered in blood，was on the wing trying to pull her husband from the wreckMeffert，afraid the plane would explode，guided her to safety behind itThen，he ran back for Frank，who had been knocked out by the initial crash，lying across both seatsMeffert carefully positioned himself under the pilots arms and lifted him from the cockpitThen he dragged the pilot off the wing and carried him to safety，where they could see the plane in flamesThe Pisanos spent three weeks in the hospitalRemarkably，Mefferts car was the only one hit by the planeHad Meffert been a second or two faster，Frank

of the crew of the airportDthe plane would take off again when Frank recoveredCPlastic sludge(污泥)and garbage is a disaster for the worlds oceansA film crew traveled the globe to document the rubbishAnd Julie Andersen of the Plastic Oceans Foundation says what we see is just the tip of the problem“Half of the waste actually sinks to the bottom，and that that remains on the surface actually breaks down”The filmmakers found rubbish in ocean gyres，the circulating currents that trap large concentrations of pollution in the Atlantic，Indian，and Pacifc Oceans，home of what some haveplasticWhat we found was a plastic smog that spread throughout all the waterAnd in some parts of theoceans，scientists have found more plastic than plant”The pieces of the plastic garbage infect the food chain，sometimes visibly,and more so at the microscopic level，where the plastic particles interact with other pollutants“There are heavy metals， medicines，industrial waste in the sea，while it acts like magnets(磁铁)These poisonous substances absorbon the plastic，and then when seafood absorbs the plastics，those poisonous substances enter the fattytissues”To be consumed by other sea life and by people at lastChina，Indonesia，the Philippines，Thailand and Vietnam are the worst plastic pollutersThe United States，although a leader in recycling，is one of the worlds 20 since it produces and consumes so much plasticThere are efforts around the world to address th e problem，including at this newly opened recycling center in Lebanon(黎巴嫩)But Andersen says there is more that people can do“Cut back on single-use plastics，straws，plastic cups，plastic water bottles，plastic bags and find alternatives like reusable materials”She says healthy oceans are essential to our sur vival28What can we learn from

pollutionOceansDisasterCWays to solve the problem of plastic pollution to oceansDPlastic pollution and our healthDIf conditions get bad enough，almost any kind of weather can become a stormStormy weather can cause people to cancel their plansIt can cause major events to be postponedAnd severe stormy weather can be dangerous to people，fortune and anima1If you weather the storm，or ride out the storm，you survive and move on without harm or injuryFor example，1ets talk about Tornado Alley，the name for part of the central United StatesDuring springtime，this area often has a large number of powerful tornadoesPeople who live there are taught to shelter in the safest place they can find and wait for the storm to passPeople who live in Tornado Alley are used to weathering many storms!You can also weather a storm，but it doesnt involve actual weather“To weather the storm”can also mean to make it through a difficult experience or trying timesSo，if the stock market(股市)crashes，you might have to weather a financial stormOften before a big storm，conditions are calmThe calm before the storm can happen anytimeIt is the time before something bad happensFor example，at the beginning of a family reunionthe adults were all talking happilyBut the older children knew it was just the calm before the stormTheyve seen it happen beforeThe adults talk happily for about an hourThen they start arguing about events from the pastthings that should really stay buried!But after the storm begins and you find yourself in the middle of it，you are in the eye of the stormIn the world of weather，the eye of the storm is the calmest part，in the center of a hurricane，for exampleHowever，in the English language，if you are in the eye of the storm，you are in the most intense part of a conflictFor example，she had no idea that walking into the meeting would put her in the eye of the stormHowever，a brainstorm does not exist in the world of weatherTo brainstorm means to try to solve a problem by talking with other peopleAnd dont worryIf we have trouble thinking of an idea for the next program，we can always brainstorm with you !32Whats mainly discussed in the 3rd and 4th paragraphs?AWhat the meanings of weathering the storm areBHow we can weather the stormCWeathering a storm doesnt involve actual weatherDPeople in Tornado Alley can survive the storm33Why does the author mention a family reunion in the fifth paragraph?ATo stress the importance of weather forecastBTo develop the awareness of familyCTo explain the meaning of an expressionDTo praise the older children for being clever34What can be inferred from the last paragraph?AA problem eart be solved if you worry too muchBA brainstorm often appears in the world of weatherCDifficulties can be dealt with by teamworkDTo brainstorm can cause troubles in the program35Whats the authors purpose in writing the text?ATo tell us stormy weather can cause destructionBTo tell us some expressions about stormCTo tell us a storm can cause conflictsDTo tell us we should be ready for a storm第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10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。Every animal sleeps, but the reason for this has remained foggy. When lab rats are not allowed to sleep, they die within a month. 36 One idea is that sleep helps us strengthen new memories. 37 We know that, while awake, fresh memories are recorded by reinforcing (加强) connections between brain cells, but the memory processes that take place while we sleep have been unclear. Support is growing for a theory that sleep evolved so that connections between neurons (神经元) in the brain can be weakened overnight, making room for fresh memories to form the next day. 38 Now we have the most direct evidence yet that he is right. 39 The synapses in the mice taken at the end of a period of sleep were 18 per cent smaller than those taken before sleep, showing that the connections between neurons weaken while sleeping.If Tononis theory is right, it would explain why, when we miss a nights, we find it harder the next day to concentrate and learn new information our brains may have smaller room for new experiences.Their research also suggests how we may build lasting memories over time even though the synapses become thinner. The team discovered that some synapses seem to be protected and stayed the same size. 40 “You keep what matters,” Tononi says.A. We should also try to sleep well the night before.B. Its as if the brain is preserving its most important memories.C. Thats why students do better in tests if they get a chance to sleep after learning.D. Similarly, when people go for a few days without sleeping, they get sick.E. The processes take place to stop our brains becoming loaded with memories.F. Tononis team measured the size of these connections, or synapses, in the brains of 12 mice.G. “Sleep is the price we pay for learning,” says Giulio Tononi, who developed the idea.第三部分：语言知识运用（共两节，满分45分）第一节 完形填空（共20小题；每小题1.5分，满分30分）阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出最佳选项。 I am so thankful that I had the opportunity to spread a little love and kindness today.
