Moores account is different. He shows that far from being fearless，she could often be fearful without cause. The final volume will include her fall from power.Harold Wilson by Ben Pimlott (1992)Harold Wilson had become a ghostly figure when this book was published in 1992. The absence heightened a sense of mystery. Who was he? How to explain his seemingly contradictory characteristics? Pimlott solves some of the mysteries; the book is detailed until Wislons final phase as prime minister in 1974.Churchill by Roy Jenkins (2001)Jenkins writes as a politician as well as a historian，analyzing Churchills historic moves from the opinions of one who had also spoken in the Commons. Jenkins had resigned from high positions in battles over policy，and as one that changed parties，though not as frequently as Churchill did.Roy Jenkins by John Campbell (2014)Campbell calmly narrates many political and personal dramas，including Jenkins intense relationship with Anthony Crosland when they were both students at Oxford. Campbell also addresses Jenkins various affairs with women. Like Jenkins political heroes，he led many lives. Campbell is sharp in describing each of them.Diaries, Volumes One to Six by Alastair Campbell (2017)Love or hate him，Campbell remains the master of the inside story，not just because of his unusual ideas on the relationship between Tony Blair and Gordon Brown. This is an incredibly detailed book on what its like to live inside No. 10: the cruel space of events; and the constant conflict with the media.【解题导语】本文是一篇应用文，主要介绍了五本有关改变历史的世界伟人的传记。文章具体介绍了作者姓名、出版时间、书的内容等。21Which of the following leaders has the largest number of books written about him/her?AHarold Wilson.

Located in the resort of Kittila, which is 200 kilometers above the Arctic Circle and around 90 minutes from Helsinki, the destination is made up of 24 rooms10 of which are suites for guests staying overnight.Temperatures reach 5 inside, so highquality thermal (保暖的) sleeping bags are on hand to keep guests warm, as well as a hot berry juice in the morning. Although its recommended that guests stay at the hotel for a maximum of one night due to the icy conditions, there are warm log cabins available should they wish to extend their stay in the SnowVillage. Guests can also visit a restaurant, cinema, chapel and bar, all made entirely of snow and ice. Guests also receive a guided tour inside the SnowVillage, a buffet breakfast in the log restaurant, and a diploma to commemorate their stay.Travelers can book an overnight visit at the snow hotel or simply take a day trip to the SnowVillage, which covers an area of about 20，000 square meters. The village is open for visitors daily and has a cinema, a chapel, an arctic bar that serves drinks in glasses carved from ice, and a restaurant with frozen dining furniture and a menu featuring reindeer (驯鹿) steak.While its been constructed yearly since 2000, this is the first time the SnowVillage has included a “Game of Thrones” themed section.Kittila is also a great location to view the Northern Lights，and SnowVillage offers snowmobile safaris (旅行) where guests can try to catch a glimpse of Greenlands natural phenomena, as well as activities like reindeersledding and icesculpting classes.【解题导语】本文主要介绍了芬兰一家特色主题旅馆。24What can we learn about the themed hotel from the first paragraph?AIt is 200 kilometers from Helsinki.BIt is 110 kilometers from the Arctic Circle.CIt is in the resort of Kittila.DIt is made up of 34 rooms.C解析：细节理解题。根据第一段第二句“Located in the resort of Kittila, which is 200 kilometers above the Arctic Circle and around 90 minutes from Helsinki, the destination is made up of 24 rooms10 of which are suites for guests staying overnight.”可知， 这家特色主题旅馆坐落于Kittila旅游胜地内， 故选C。25What does the underlined word “commemorate” mean?AProve.

BPeace.CPoliteness. DWar.B解析：细节理解题。根据第一段中的“Nov. 21 is World Hello Day. It began back in the 1970s as part of an effort to make the world more peaceful.”可知，世界问候日设立的初衷是为了和平。29What has an effect on people most?ARaising heads to others.BDoing something casually.CMeeting in the school corridor.DThe simple act of saying “Hello”D解析：细节理解题。根据第二段第二句“Still，on a smaller range，the simple act of saying “Hello” to someone can make a lot of difference.”可知，对别人影响最大的是打招呼这种简单的行为。30Why do some people feel lonely?AThey are unwilling to communicate with others.BThey are too shy to communicate with others.CThey are very fond of living alone.DThey dont like doing things as others do.B解析：细节理解题。根据第四段中的“Many people are lonely because theyre shy.cut off.”可知，一些人感到孤独的原因是他们太害羞了，不敢和别人交流。31What can we learn from the last paragraph?AWe should neglect a small thing.BSaying “Hello” to others is powerful.CThe flowers make the world better.DNo one is better than Joseph Joubert.B解析：推理判断题。根据最后一段中的“A Hello to a stranger is a small thing，and often neglected (忽视)，but through it we can make the world better for another person.”可知，向别人打招呼是有影响力的。DVitamin B could help lessen the effects of the most dangerous type of air pollution，according to a new study published recently. In the first study of its kind，a team of international researchers looked at the damage caused by one of the pollutants that has the most severe impact on health: PM2.5.Particulate matter，or PM，is a type of air pollutant consisting of small particles of different sizes. PM2.5 has a diameter of fewer than 2.5 micrometers，about 30 times smaller than a human hair. These particles are so small that they can go into our respiratory system (呼吸系统), resulting in lung and systemic inflammation (炎症) and stress.The team found that something as simple as a daily vitamin B supplement could potentially reduce the impact of the tiny particles on the human body，although they stressed that the research was in its early stages and the sample size was small.For this study，10 volunteers were initially exposed to clean air and given a placebo (安慰剂) to check their responses. The group then took another placebo for four weeks before being exposed to heavily polluted air from downtown Toronto，where an estimated 1，000 cars pass every hour. The bad air was delivered to the volunteers through an “oxygentype” face mask. The experiment was then repeated，with each volunteer taking a vitamin B supplement daily made up of 2.5 mg of folic acid，50 mg of vitamin B6，and 1 mg of vitamin B12. B6 can be found in liver，chicken and nuts，and B12 in fish，meat，eggs，milk and some cereals.The researchers found that four weeks of vitamin B supplements reduced the damage of PM2.5 exposure by 28%76%. The results highlight how prevention at an individual level could be used to fight the harmful effects of PM2.5.【解题导语】本文是一篇说明文。吸入人体内的PM2.5 (细颗粒物)会导致疾病。不过，研究发现维生素B在一定程度上能降低PM2.5的危害。32Why is PM2.5 harmful to our health?AIt pollutes and poisons the air.BIt is too much to be got rid of.CIt carries viruses and diseases.DIt is easily breathed in and damages our body.D解析：细节理解题。根据第二段中的“These particles are so small that they can go into our
