Not only is it the first public park built in America, but it is also one of the most frequently visited parks, with over 25 million guests per year. Set in the middle of busy Manhattan, its grounds serve as a safe harbor, not only for athletes, and musicians but also for lots of migratory birds each year. One can spend an entire peaceful day wandering its grounds, gazing upon nearly 50 fountains, monuments, and sculptures or admiring its 36 bridges.Hudson River ParkHudson River Park is a waterside park on the Hudson River that extends from 59th Street south to Battery Park in the New York City district of Manhattan. Bicycle and pedestrian paths, including the Manhattan Waterfront Greenway, span the park north to south, opening up the waterfront for the public to relax. The park includes tennis and soccer fields, childrens playground, dog run, and many other features.Washington Square ParkWashington Square Park, located in the heart of Greenwich Village, is a very popular and often crowded square. People from all backgrounds gather to this large square dotted with trees.Central Park ZooThe Central Park Zoo is a small 6.5-acre zoo located on Central Park in New York City. The zoo began in the 1860s, making it the first official zoo to open in New York. The zoo was improved in 1934, with the addition of many new buildings ranged in a quadrangle around the sea lion pool. Finally, the zoo was repaired in the mid-1980s and reopened in 1988, replacing the old-fashioned cages with naturalistic environments.21. What can we learn about Central Park?A. It is primarily an artificial park.B. It is the first public park built in the world.C. It especially attracts pedestrians and artists.D. It was the most crowded park when first built.22. Which park is set in the heart of Greenwich Village?A. Central Park.B. Central Park Zoo.C. Washington Square Park.D. Hudson River Park.23. When was the first official zoo in New York repaired for the first time?A. In the 1860s.B. In 1934.C. In 1988.D. In the mid-1980s.BOn October 23, 2016, David Pologruto, a high school physics teacher, was stabbed by his smart student Jason Haffizulla. Jason got straight As and was determined to study medicine at Harvard, yet this was his downfall. His physics teacher gave Jason a B, a mark Jason believed would undermine his entrance to Harvard. After receiving his B, Jason took a butcher knife to school and stabbed his physics teacher.How can someone as smart as Jason do something so dumb? Studies show there is little or no connection between IQ and emotional intelligence.During my early university years, I regarded myself as an intelligent guy. I got good marks in mathematics, physics, and other subjects. I thought such skills would surely give me a bright future. After one year of study with decent marks, I began to see two major classes of students. The first category of students turned up to few lectures, partied every weekend, enjoyed a great social life, and did minimal work to pass courses. The second category of students were intelligent and hard workers who got good grades and were very focused on their studies. Surely would these intelligent and hard-working students find the great jobs before the other lazier class of students?Not so. Students are often shocked upon graduation that their qualifications are not as important as they once thought. Graduates enter the workforce only to realize that co-workers hate them and less intelligent people are the ones receiving promotions (晋升).Educational skills are useless in some industries when interpersonal skills are absent. You can have great ideas, theories, and solve complex problems, but if you cannot effectively communicate with your colleagues, you will face difficult situations. Its not that people dislike you because of your intelligence; its that people dislike you because youre rude and not understanding. The intelligent person with poor communication skills is unaware of others emotions.24. Jason Haffizulla stabbed his physics teacher because _.A. he was not smart enough at studies B. he was unfairly treated by his teacherC. he got a worse mark than usual D. he was disappointed with his downfall25. What does the underlined word “undermine” mean?A. limitB. helpC. destroyD. benefit26. Intelligent people are hated because _.A. they are not considerate enoughB. they are envied for their intelligenceC. they can solve more complex problemsD. they cant settle the challenges they meet27. What can we learn from this text?A. What kind of students can succeed in college.B. Smart people have poorer communication skills.C. Intelligent students will meet more challenges at work.D. Smart students should balance their IQ and emotional intelligence.CScientists say a huge percentage of bird species are in danger because their habitats, or homelands, are disappearing.Traditional migration (迁徙) paths take birds through countries that are not protecting the places for birds to stop, rest and feed. The scientists studied the migration or flight paths of almost 1,500 species. They decided that 91 percent of them passed through dangerous areas.The major danger for migratory birds is development. Buildings and pavements have covered the places where birds stop and feed as they move from one part of the world to another. One of the scientists who worked on the study says “Many of these important places have been lost to land reclamation because of urban, industrial and agricultural land expansion”.The problem, according to scientists, is that many of these small birds die along their migration paths because they dont have a safe place to feed and rest. There is no place to restore (恢复) their energy for the next part of their journey. Countries in North Africa, Central Asia and those along the coasts of East Asia are having the most difficult time in protecting land. The scientists say these countries do not have enough areas that are safe for birds. One species that doesnt exist now is the Eskimo curlew. “Our world gets poorer every time we lose a species,” one of the scientists says.The researchers say countries need to work together and come up with safe stopping areas for birds that pass through their boundaries. For example, one country might have preserved safe zones for migrating birds. But a neighbor country might not. A bird might die.One scientist who is not connected with the report tells Los Angeles Times that while some habitats are changing, more work can be done to make urban areas safe for birds.He says small changes, like planting more native plants or keeping cats out of the areas birds would be likely to use, could make a big difference.28. The disappearance of the bird habitats is mainly caused by _.A. developmentB. the change of climateC. filling seas to grow grainD. the loss of land and water29. What do the underlined words “land reclamation” in Paragraph 3 mean?A. Abusing the farming land.B. The disappearance of good land.C. Causing the land quality to get worse.D. Making land suitable for farming or building.30. Many birds die on the way of migration mainly because they _.A. are harmed by humansB. are killed by other animalsC. have to take a long journeyD. have no safe place to rest and eat 31. According to the researchers, how can we protect the migrating birds?A. By keeping fewer cats or dogs.B. By stopping the urban development.C. By helping change the birds migration paths. D. By preserving the local ecological environments.D Birdbrain has long been a term when laughing at somebody. The common opinion is that birds brains are simple. But that opinion has increasingly been called into question because crows and parrots, among other birds, have shown behaviors as smart as that of chimpanzees. The conflict of simple brain and complex behavior has led some neuroscientists (神经学家) to create a new map of the birdbrain. Today, in the journal Nature Neuroscience Reviews, an international group of bird experts is showing their opinion. Nearly everything written in anatomy (解剖学) textbooks about the brains of birds is wrong, they say. The bird brain is as complex, and creative as any mammal brain, they argue, and its time to use a more exact term that shows a new understanding of the anatomies of bird and mammal brains. “Names have a powerful influence on the experiments we do and the way we think,” said Dr. Erich, a neuroscientist at Duke University and a leader of the Bird Brain Terms Association. “Old term has prevented scientific progress.” The association of 29 scientists from six countries met for seven years to develop new, more exact names for structures in both bird and mammal brains. For example, the birds seat of intelligence or its higher brain is now named the pallium (大脑皮层). “The change of terms is a great advance,” said Dr. Jon Kaas, a leading expert in neuroanatomy at Vanderbih University. “Its hard to get scientists to agree about anything.” Scientists have come to agree that birds are indeed smart, but those who study bird intelligence differ on how birds got that way. Experts are split into two warring camps. One holds that birds brains make the same kinds of internal (内在的) connections as do mammal brains and that intelligence in both groups arises from these connections. The other holds that bird intelligence developed through increasing an old part of the mammal brain and using it in new ways and it questions how developed that intelligence is.32. According to paragraph 1, _. A. birds can be taught by scientists B. chimpanzees are smarter than birds C. crows and parrots, like other birds, are funny D. birds arent as stupid as people thought before33. The reason that some neuroscientists create a new map of the bird brain is _. A. they try to find out why birdbrain is so simple but their behavior so complex B. they are anxious to know why the brains of birds are so complex C. they want to make clear of the structure of birdbrain D. they find that the birds behavior is very strange34. In Paragraph 4, Dr. Erich expresses his opinion that _.A. the names of the university is very important B. the names of birds may influence peoples thoughts C. the names of scientists are powerful for the experiment D. a technical term may affect a particular field and subject 35. The last paragraph tells us that _.A. birds and other mammals have close connections B. birds and other mammals come from the same family C. scientists have different ideas about how birds get intelligence D. some scientists cannot agree that birds are as smart as other mammals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。We usually dont mind when people call us by positive nicknames. 36 But when people call us by cruel nicknames, it can be difficult to get them to stop. So what should you do?Ask your friends to stop. Maybe you tripped (绊倒) over your feet a few times, and your friends started calling you klutz, thinking that you dont really mind. 37 Leave a nicknames behind. Sometimes, life gives us a chance to start fresh. 38 If youre moving from elementary school to middle school, let your friends know that: A new year has begun and you dont want to go by your old nickname.Ignore those who call you by a nickname. If the kids calling you by a bad nickname arent your friends, you should do your best to ignore them. 39 It may be hard to pretend that it doesnt hurt, but if you get angry or obviously upset, it will just encourage them to use the nickname all the time. 40 Remember that if you have a bad nickname now, you probably wont be stuck with it. Just look at Elvis Presley! When he first started singing on stage, he wiggled (摆动) his hips so much that cruel critics and the audience nicknamed him Elvis The Pelvis. He never stopped wiggling. People soon found it impossible to ignore his talent and began to call him The King of Rock & Roll.A. If it does bother you, tell them.B. Believe that things will change.C. If the kids refuse to stop, talk to your teacher.D. It feels good when these nicknames are repeated.E. Although words can be hurtful, they cant change who you really are.F. The chance can be a good time to get rid of a nickname that you dont like.G. If you act like they arent hurting you, theyll eventually get bored and stop.第三部分 英语知识运用（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） 阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。 I was on a plane returning home to Dallas, Texas after completing my duty in Vietnam. There were no hometown parades for us veterans (退役老兵) from that 41 war and I had been warned about the unfriendliness from our countrymen at that time. 42, I was just trying to get home without incident.I sat, in uniform, in a window seat, 43 eye contact with my fellow passengers. No one was sitting in the seat next to me, which 44 my loneliness. A little girl, not more than 10 years old, suddenly 45 in the passage. She smiled and, without a word, 46 handed me a magazine. I accepted her 47 together with her quiet “welcome home”. I turned to the window and wept. Her small 48 of caring was the first I had 49 in a long time.I believe in the 50 between strangers when we reach out to one another.Today, that young girl 51 has no memory of what happened years ago. I like to think of her as having grown up, continuing to 52 others and teaching her children to do the same. I know she might have been told to give me the “53
