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.24. Why do emails with “FYI” make the author uneasy?A. Shes too busy to read those emails. B. She dislikes her parents nonstop talking.C. Shes afraid to get bad news about her parents. D. They often bring unpleasant news.25. How did the author feel about the email from her cousin?A. Disappointed. B. Shocked. C. Confused. D. Annoyed.26. What do we know from the third and fourth paragraphs?A. Not many people attended the funeral. B. A get-together was held at home.C. Reeses friends didnt appear. D. The author hesitated to go to Florida.27. What does the author decide to do after the funeral?A. Have a talk with her parents about death. B. Express her love for her parents bravely.C. Value her parents wishes. D. Get everything ready for her parents.CAn insect bee stands out on the logo of the Scripps National Spelling Bee, despite “Bee” being unrelated to the name of the insect. “Bee” refers to “a gathering”, where people join together in an activity.The National Spelling Bee, formed in 1925, was a collection of many local spelling bees, organized by Louisville. With competitions, cash prizes, and a trip to the nations capital, it was hoped that the bee would stimulate “general interest among pupils in a dull subject”. Mark Neuhauser won the national Spelling Bee held that year, by successfully spelling “gladiolus”. In 2014, there were two winners of the bee-a conclusion that has only happened three other times in Bee history, and not since 1962. Sriam Harthwar, a 14-year-old from New York and Ansun Sujoe, a 13-year-old from Texas shared the excitement as co-champions after 22 rounds of spelling. Each took home over $30,000 in cash, scholarship and bonds.The spelling bee has been held every year except for 1943-1945 due to World War II. Later, the Scripps Company acquired the rights to the program in 1941. The bee is held in late May or early June of each year. It is open to students who have not yet completed the eighth grade, reach their 15th birthday, nor won a precious National Spelling Bee. Its goal is educational; not only to encourage children to perfect the art of spelling, but also to help enlarge their vocabularies and widen their knowledge of the English language.28. When did Mark win the National Spelling Bee?A. In 1925 B. In 1941. C. In 1962. D. In 2014.29. What does the underlined word “stimulate” in Paragraph 2 probably mean?A. influence B. lose. C. inspire. D. show.30. We can conclude from the text that .A. Ansun is allowed to take part in the Bee again if he likesB. the goal of the Bee is more commercial than educationalC. the Bee has already been held for ninety times D. the first prize has been shared four times in Bee history31. Whats the purpose of writing the text?A. To make people know a new kind of insect-spelling bee.B. To introduce a competition about spelling words.C. To discuss the ways of participating the Scripps National Spelling Bee.D. To share Mark Neuhausers pleasure of winning the competition. DDid you know that sixty percent of your body weight is water？However，a loss of only two percent of this water through dehydration(脱水)during exercise can significantly affect your performance. The more you sweat，the more your exercise performance declines，unless you drink enough to replace your loss of fluids.When you lose too much water，you can overheat quite easily，especially in a warm environment. But this is not the only problem you may faced with. Dehydration leads to your heart pumping much faster，which means exercise becomes more difficult and requires more effort. Despite these problems，however，many of us simply do not take enough fluids in when we head for the gym or set out on a run.So why is this? How do we manage to lose so much water without simply drinking more to replace it？Well，it is s easier than you think. When we are at rest，we quickly become aware that we are thirsty and will put that right by having a drink. When we exercise，on the other hand，our thirst mechanism(结构)does not work as effectively，so we dont notice early enough that we are actually thirsty. In fact，we only start to feel thirsty when we have already lost around two percent of our body weight.Another problem is that，the more dehydrated we become during exercise，the more difficult it is to prevent further dehydrationbecause our stomachs become intolerant to fluids and we do not absorb water properly，just when we need it most.The key thing about fluids and exercise is to manage your intake properlyregular small amounts are better，and some should be drunk before the period of exercise begins. You also need to match your intake to the sort of exercise you are doing. For instance，for one hour of exercise，such as taking part in a 10 km run，you need to drink about two extra liters of water. For longer periods of exercise，sports drinks are recommended.32. We know from the text that during exercise，dehydration_.A. can be easily avoided B. will lead to poor performanceC. can cause many health problemsD. will be controlled whenever we drink again33. Why do people suffer from dehydration easily during exercise？A. Their thirst mechanism stops working. B. Their focus is on the exercise.C. Their thirst response is slow. D. Their stomachs are full.34. When exercising，you are advised to_.A. have regular breaks B. drink water accordingly C. drink sports water in advance D. have at least two liters of water35. What would be the best title for the text?A. Keep fit B. Say no to sports! C. Time to get drinking! D. Ways to avoid dehydration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。Travelling with teensVacationing with teens can be unpleasant since they can be a little moody sometimes. But with some careful consideration and planning you can make your family vacation fantastic and memorable. 36 Teens have strong opinions. If they dont get a vote on options ahead of time,they are likely to punish you with a bad attitude.
