The hotel is situated in Kemzeke, Belgium and was designed by Joep van Lieshout.

The shape of the hotel reminds you of a dog可知,这家旅馆的外观就像只狗,再结合旅馆的名字可知这家旅馆的名字也许源于其外形。22考查推理判断。根据第三段中的The matter is that bathroom facilities are not included in the price可知,这家旅馆的房价里不包括洗浴设施,因此想要洗澡的话,需要另外支付费用。23考查细节理解。根据第四段中的Do not say no to this hotel since it is quite comfortable and nice inside可知,重视舒适度的游客可以选择入住CasAnus。【备注】本文为应用文。文章介绍了世界上最特别的四家旅馆。I am always nervous when I get an email from my parents withFYI(For Your Information). My parents are in their late 70s, and while they are quite healthy for their ages, I worry about what messages they are going to give me.I got such an email in September from my father. He sent an email from my cousin who told that her father, my uncle Reese, had passed away. The news made my mind go blank though I have met him less than a dozen times in my life, because Reese was the first of my parents siblings(兄弟姐妹) to die, and I was simply not ready for that.The memorial service was set in Florida, and I quickly decided I needed to go. I needed to be there for my father, and I needed to go for myself. Reese is about nine years older than my father, and I started to do the math in my head. I know that doesnt make sense, but I will do anything to reason that I still have a lot of time before I will be in my cousins shoes.Reeses memorial service was small with only family and perhaps a dozen of his friends. The funeral was attended by an even smaller number, and then, the family gathered at a nearby bar to look at old photographs found among Reeses possessions when he died.As we drove back to the Orlando International Airport, I thought about how I am not sure what my parents want, not only in their memorial services, but also how they want to be remembered and where they want to be laid to rest. These are going to be difficult conversations, but I know I need to have them. Maybe not right now, but we do need to open the discussion at some point. It may feel too early, but I trust my parents will know that when adult children raise these questions, we do it out of love to honor their lives and their wishes.24Why do emails withFYImake the author uneasy?A.Shes too busy to read those emails.B.She dislikes her parents nonstop talking.C.They often bring unpleasant news.D.Shes afraid to get bad news about her parents.25How did the author feel about the email from her cousin?A.Disappointed.B.Shocked.C.Confused.D.Annoyed.26What do we know from the third and fourth paragraphs?A.A get-together was held at home.B.Reeses friends didnt appear.C.Not many people attended the funeral.D.The author hesitated to go to Florida.27What does the author decide to do after the funeral?A.Express her love for her parents bravely.B.Have a talk with her parents about death.C.Value her parents wishes.D.Get everything ready for her parents.【答案】24D25B26C27B【解析】24考查推理判断。依据文章第一段的内容可知,作者收到来自父母的带有FYI的邮件总是感到紧张的原因是自己的父母已经年迈,作者担心他们的身体状况,害怕得到有关他们的坏消息。故选D项。25考查推理判断。依据文章第二段中的The news made my mind go blank.because Reese was the first of my parents siblings(兄弟姐妹) to die, and I was simply not ready for that可知,得知这个消息后,作者的大脑一片空白,因为Reese是她父母的兄弟姐妹中第一个去世的,作者还没有做好准备。由此可推知,这个消息让作者很震惊。26考查细节理解。依据文章第四段第二句The funeral was attended by an even smaller number, and then, the family gathered at a nearby bar to look at old photographs found among Reeses possessions when he died可知,Reese的葬礼是小规模的,来参加的人不多。故选C项。27考查推理判断。依据最后一段的内容尤其是These are going to be difficult conversations, but I know I need to have them可知,参加完葬礼后,在去机场的途中,作者想了很多,虽然现在与父母谈论他们的后事为时过早,但是很有必要在他们活着的时候讨论这些事情。故可推知作者决定就死亡与父母进行一次谈话。【备注】本文为记叙文。伯父的离去让作者意识到自己尚不清楚父母想要什么。Warm weather brought by El Nio has had mixed effects on animals in usually snowy places in North America, including New England, according to an Associated Press article.Some animals seem to benefit from having a chance to gather more food before winter, and from expending less energy in daily survival mode. Others, like snowshoe hares, are put at center stage in predators(捕食者) view when they lack snow for disguising their white fur not a good thing for them, of course.Black bears, on the other hand, have been keeping busy gathering nuts and apples, when they would normally have settled into their winter homes by now. Vermont and Massachusetts officials have asked residents to wait till snow falls to take out their bird feeders for the sake of safety, the article said.We suggest waiting for 6 or more inches of snow that lasts before taking out your bird feeders, especially if you have been visited in the past by bears or if there are sightings of bears in your neighborhood,Forrest Hammond, Vermont Fish and Wildlifes bear biologist, said in the article.Due to lack of snow and frozen ground, birds are able to seek food in fields and forests for theirnatural foods.Snow amounts can also determine how comfortable bears are and how quickly they consume their accumulated fat during hibernation(冬眠), noted Hammond in the article. This is because snow covers and traps them in their winter homes, and also hides them from predators.28What may upset snowshoe hares because of El Nio?A.Their being caught more easily.B.Their failing to gather more food.C.Their consuming more energy.D.Their losing sight of their enemies.29Why did the officials ask people to keep bird feeders until snow falls?A.They may disturb bears.B.Theres no need to do so.C.To avoid attracting bears.D.For the safety of bears.30What do the bear biologists words imply?A.A heavy snow is on the way.B.Bears are common nowadays.C.Bears live mainly on birds in winter.D.Warm weather benefits birds in winter.31Which of the following is the proper title for the passage?A.Warm Weather Helps Animals SurviveB.Snow Amounts Determine Animals Winter LifeC.Measures Should Be Taken to Protect WildlifeD.Lack of Snow Affects North American Animals【答案】28A29C30D31D【解析】28考查细节理解。依据第二段的Others, like snowshoe hares, are put at center stage in predators(捕食者) view when they lack snow for disguising their white fur可知,没有足够的雪来伪装白靴兔白色的皮毛,这使得它们很容易被捕食者发现。由此可知,因为厄尔尼诺现象,它们更容易被捕捉到了。29考查推理判断。第三段开头提到往年这个时候,黑熊通常都已经待在冬眠的窝里了,但现在它们却忙着收集坚果和苹果,再根据Vermont and Massachusetts officials have asked residents to wait till snow falls to take out their bird feeders for the sake of safety可知,暂时不把喂鸟器拿出来是为了不招来熊。故选C项。30考查推理判断。依据第四段的尾句Due to lack of snow and frozen ground, birds are able to seek food in fields and forests for their natural foods可知,由于缺乏雪和冻土,鸟类可以在田野和森林中觅食,因此暖冬对鸟的生存有利,故选D项。31考查主旨要义。作者在首段中先提出气候变暖对北美动物有影响,下文以白靴兔和黑熊为例进行具体说明,因此D项作文章标题最佳。【备注】随着冬季降雪,很多动物进入冬眠期。但是,由于受厄尔尼诺现象的影响,北美一些地区降雪量减少,使得一些动物无法正常冬眠。People at risk of a heart attack or stroke could benefit from blood-pressure-lowering drugs even if their blood pressure is considered in the normal, healthy range. If such drugs were offered to people with cardiac(心脏的) risks regardless of their blood pressure at the beginning of treatment it could save millions of lives, researchers in Oxford University found.For the study, the team analyzed more than 120 medical trials including around 600,000 people conducted over two decades, saying their findings are a call for an urgent review of existing blood pressure treatment guidelines.Our findings clearly show that treating blood pressure to a lower level could greatly reduce the risk of cardiovascular disease, if widely conducted,said study lead author Kazem Rahimi.High blood pressure has long been identified as a factor in higher risks of heart disease and strokes, and makes more than a billion people around the globe intorment including one out of three U.S. adults.Blood pressure is recorded in millimeters of mercury (mmHg) as two numbers in a ratio:systolicpressure inside the arteries(动脉)when the heart beats as the top number, anddiastolic(舒张的)pressure between heartbeats, as the heart rests and is refilled with blood.Normalblood pressure is considered at 120/80 or below, and is consideredhighat 140/90 or above, according to the American Heart Association. The researchers said their study showed that for every reduction in systolic pressure of 10 mmHg, the risk of heart attacks was reduced by a fifth and that of a stroke around a quarter.Some experts said they thought the studys findings were important butdid offer some warnings.One important warning is that not everyone will be able to tolerate having their blood pressure reduced to low levels, and there is a need to balance possible drug side effects and likely benefits,Smeeth said.32What do the findings indicate?A.Normal blood pressure doesnt mean a healthy body.B.The existing blood pressure treatment is useless.C.High blood pressure is the first health killer.D.High blood pressure causes many diseases.33What does the underlined wordtorment(in Paragraph 3) mean?A.Tolerance.B.Debt.C.Pain.D.Desp
