Mother Nature can help us find peace and direction in a noisy world. Here are some of the best activities to get in touch with nature. Hiking One of the easiest and most accessible ways to get close to nature is by setting out on a good old fashioned hike. Hiking generally doesnt require any fancy equipment or special skills; just a sturdy(结实的)pair of boots, a map, and a thirst for adventure. Backcountry camping Why limit yourself to just a day hike when you can have a full weekend for longer adventure? Backcountry camping involves packing your tent, sleeping equipment, food and water on your back to set up camp in a remote location. If youre an experienced camper, this is an excellent way to test your survival skills and explore the mysterious wilderness. Many parks require backpackers to obtain permits, so make sure to register and map your route before stepping on the trail. Rock climbing Rock climbing is also one of the best ways to really get in touch with the natural environment. Climbing challenges your mind, tests your personal willpower, and encourages you to work with the forces of nature to acplish your goals. Youll definitely need to take a few rock climbing courses, and hire a guide before attempting to climb your own routes. Gardening Contrary to popular belief, you dont have to travel beyond your own backyard to experience the beauty of nature every day. If your personality is less adventurous or your mobility restricted, consider planting a garden to grow your own vegetables, fruits, herbs, or flowers. Theres something truly satisfying about mixing up a salad with fresh ingredients you grew yourself. For more information, please click here.21. Before starting your backcountry camping, you should .

B It was Mothers Day morning last year and I was doing my shopping at our local supermarket with my five-year-old son, Teayson. As we were leaving, we found that only minutes earlier an elderly woman had fallen over at the entrance and had hit her bead on the concrete. Her husband was with her, but there was blood everywhere and the woman was embarrassed and clearly in shock.Walking towards the scene, Tenyson became very upset about what had happened to the couple. Ile said to me. “Mums its not much fun falling over in front of everyone.”At the front of the supermarket a charity group had set up a stand selling cooked sausages and flowers to raise funds. Tenyson suggested that we should boy the lady a flower. “It will make her feel better,” he said. I was amazed that hed e up such a sweet idea. So we went over to the flower seller and asked her if we could buy a flower for the lady to cheer her up. “Just take it,” she replied. “I cant take your money for such a wonderful gesture.”By now paramedics(救援人员) had arrived, and were attending the injured woman. As we walked up to her, my son became intimidated by all the blood and medical equipment. He said he was just too scared to go up to her.Instead I gave the flower to the womans husband and told him. “My son was very upset for your wife and wanted to give her this flower to make her feel better.”At that, the old man started crying and said, “Thank you so much, you have a wonderful son, Happy Mothers Day to you.”The man then bent down and gave his wife the flower, telling her who it was from. Though badly hurt and shaken, the old lady looked up at Tenyson with love in her eyes and gave him a little smile.25. What does the author intend to tell us?A. One can never be too careful. B.

The elderly woman was moved to tears by Tenysons gesture.27. The underlined word “intimidated” in the fourth paragraph probably means .A. astonished B. struck C. frightened D. excited C With golden sunshine and a gentle breeze, autumn is the most beautiful season in the year. This is a great time to go outside and have fun. Go to a valley to see red maple trees, go and pick fruit in an orchard or find an open field to fly your kite in.However, for many high school students, these great activities may be just a dream. With plenty of work to do, they spend all their hours indoors, struggling for a high mark in their exams. Of course, study is one of the most important things for teenagers. But life is definitely much more than that.Sometimes we spend so much time studying that we forget how to make life wonderful. In doing so, we lose the real purpose of life to be a valuable and happy person. To enjoy just how great it is to be alive, we have to put down our books and pens and look around us. Students, take some exercise to improve your health, talk with your parents and friends for understanding and walk around outside to refresh your body and mind.Going out and enjoying the beautiful countryside often helps our creativity in our work. Chinese craftsman, Lu Ban, created a saw to help woodworkers. But if he hadnt walked outside, he would not have been inspired by a kind of toothed grass. We could also suppose if Newton hadnt rested under that apple tree, then he wouldnt have been hit by an apple, and his classic theories would not have e out.Going out is not only a break from hard work, but a chance to add to life experience. So e on, give your brain a good rest. Step out of the books and get your bag ready for an autumn outing. We are sure you will get much more than knowledge from the exciting journey.28. In which paragraph does the writer make a summary about his opinion?A. Paragraph 1. B. Paragraph 2. C. Paragraph 5. D. Paragraph 4.29. Why is going out a dream for many high school students?A.

Nature is power. D A new keyboard can tell whether you are its owner. The keyboard records information about the typing pattern and sends it to a puter program. The program then checks to see if the pattern matches the right user, if not, an alarm sounds, and the puter locks the typist out. It locks out anyone else, even if that person knows password. Whats more, this device needs no batteries. It harvests all the energy it needs from the action of your typing. Besides, the keyboard is also self-cleaning and the keys are free of damage from water, oil and dirt. The keys of the new keyboard are made of the same inexpensive plastic that might be found on any other standard keyboard. But instead of being smooth, the keys have millions of tiny plastic nanowires (纳米线) on their surface area to every key, increasing the effective contact area between the plastic and fingers. This ensures that theres enough power to run the keyboard as someone types. Liming Dai, a scientist , did not work on the new keyboard ,but he thinks the design could be important in getting better performance from a variety of devices.” It could also be applied to a touch screen, for instance,” Dai says. “ Then smartphones and notepads could harvest energy from the action of someone typing or drawing.” “Future work might make the keyboard even more useful,” Dai adds.” A later design might build tiny capacitors (电容器) onto the nanowires,” he suggests. Capacitors are little devices that temporarily store electric charges. Those might then LEDs to light a Keyboard in the dark. Zhonglin Wang is a co-designer of the new keyboard. His team has built a working model of the keyboard.” If a pany decides to fund its production, this keyboard could be in stores in as little as two years.” says Wang.32. How does the new key keyboard tell whether you are its owner?A. By checking the right users passwords.B. By sending alarms to a puter program.C. By matching the typing pattern to the right user.D. By recording information about the typing pattern.33. Why are there many nanowires on the surface of the keys?A. To help produce power. B. To make the keys beautiful. C. To make the keys smooth. D. To improve the speed of typing34. Whats Dais attitude to the new keyboard?A. Unconcerned B. Positive C. Doubtful D. Critical35. What is the best title for the text?A New Keyboard Made of Nanowires. B. New Keyboard Powered by Typing.C. A new Keyboards Future. D. A New Keyboard entirely owned by you.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，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Today，there are thousands of national parks all over the world 36 In that year，the United States government gave a large piece of land to the state of CaliforniaThey ask the state to create a special park to protect the mountains and forest in the areaThe trees in this area are called sequoias 37 They are the tallest living things in the world and are not found anywhere else on EarthConservationists in other countries saw what happened in California and soon began to do the sameToday Europe has over 350 national parksThe first one in France，Vanoise National Park，was created in 1963 because the government wanted to stop a plan to build a large tourist project thereThe idea of creating a national park was first discussed in the 1940s，but people couldnt agree on what size to make the park 38 Ecologists worked with the government to finally agree on a plan that protected the animals，while still allowing some tourism 39 Like the first California park，the Bavarian Forest National Park was created to protect mountains and treesIt is the largest area of protected forest in EuropeThe park has shelters where visitors can spend a night close to natureIn some places high up in the mountains，there are steps cut into the rock 40 Thousands of tourists go to the park each yearThey walk through the attractive woods and enjoy the wonderful mountain viewsAThis makes it easier for tourists to get to the topBThe first national park in Germany opened in 1970CThe worlds first national park was started in 1864DThe biggest ones are over one hundred meters highEThe Giant Forest in Sequoia National Park is alive with mystery and wonderFThey also had different ideas on whether to put human or animal needs firstGThe human feel very fortunate to be able to get so close to these beautiful national parks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，从短文后各题所给的四个选项（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。In xx Peter Rouen won the third series of The Biggest Loser, a reality TV show that makes overweight people against each other to see who can lose the highest percentage of body weight.Aged just 19 at the time, Peter 41 154kg when he started on the show, and by the end had lost 42 71kg.
