12、s (板栗游戏) in the autumn when the horse-chestnut trees started to drop their shiny brown nuts. They would select a suitable chestnut, drill a hole in it and thread it onto a string, then swing their conker at that of an opponent until one of them broke. But the game has fallen out of favour. Children

13、spend less time outdoors and rarely have access to chestnut trees. Besides, many schools have banned conkers games, worried that they might cause injuries or nut allergies.That sort of risk-averseness(规避风险) now spreads through every aspect of childhood. Playgrounds have all the excitement designed o

14、ut of them to make them safe. Many governments, particularly in societies such as America, have tightened up their rules, requiring parents to supervise(监管) young children far more closely than in the past. Frank Furedi of the University of Kent, a critic on modern parenting, argues that allowing ch

15、ildren to play unsupervised or leaving them at home alone is increasingly described as a symptom of irresponsible parenting.In part, such increased caution is a response to the huge wave of changes. Large-scale urbanization, smaller and more mobile families, the move of women into the labor market a

16、nd the digitization of many aspects of life have unavoidably changed the way that people bring up their children. There is little chance that any of these trends will be changed, so todays more intensive(精细化的) parenting style is likely to go on.Such parenting practices now embraced by wealthy parent

17、s in many parts of the rich world, particularly in America, go far beyond an adjustment to changes in external conditions. They mean a strong bid to ensure that the advantages enjoyed by the parents generation are passed on to their children. Since success in life now turns mainly on education, such

18、 parents will do their best to provide their children with the schooling, the character training and the social skills that will secure access to the best universities and later the most attractive jobs.To some extent that has always been the case. But there are more such parents now, and they are c

19、ompeting with each other for what economists call positional goods. This competition starts even before the children are born. The wealthy classes will take their time to select a suitable spouse and get married, and will start a family only when they feel ready for it.Children from less advantaged

20、backgrounds, by contrast, often appear before their parents are ready for them. In America 60% of births to single women under 30 are unplanned, and over 40% of children are born outside marriage. The result, certainly in America, has been to widen already massive social inequalities yet further.All

21、 the evidence suggests that children from poorer backgrounds are at a disadvantage almost as soon as they are born. By the age of five or six they are far less “school-ready” than their better-off peers, so any attempts to help them catch up have to start long before they get to school. America has

22、had some success with various schemes involving regular home visits by nurses or social workers to low-income families with new babies. It also has long experience with programmes for young children from poor families that combine support for parents with good-quality child care. Such programmes do

23、seem to make a difference. Without extra effort, children from low-income families in most countries are much less likely than their better-off peers to attend preschool education, even though they are more likely to benefit from it. And data from the OECDs PISA programme suggest that children need

24、at least two years of preschool education to perform at their best when they are 15.So the most promising way to ensure greater equality may be to make early-years education and care for more widely available and more affordable, as it is in the Nordics. Some governments are already rethinking their

25、 educational priorities, shifting some of their spending to the early years.Most rich countries decided more than a century ago that free, compulsory education for all children was a worthwhile investment for society. There is now an argument for starting preschool education earlier, as some countri

26、es have already done. In the face of crushing new inequalities, a modern version of that approach is worth trying.1、What can we learn from the first two paragraphs?AMore attention is placed on childrens safety.BMore and more parents are becoming irresponsible.CChildren are no longer interested in ou

Across the world, countless amounts of time and money have been spent

32、on researching a way to stop this terrible disease. But now, it seems like the answer could have been inside our own bodies the whole time.Recently, the Food and Drug Administration(FDA) in the US, a government agency thats responsible for healthcare, approved a new form of gene therapy(疗法) that cou

33、ld mean the end of a certain type of cancer.The therapy allows scientists to “train” the immune(有免疫力的) cells of sick patients to fight leukemia(白血病) a form of blood cancer that mostly affects young people.The exciting new treatment works by removing healthy immune cells from the patient, known as T-

34、cells, which are then changed to be able to “hunt down” cancer cells.The cells are then put back into the patient before they begin to get rid of the patients leukemia over time, similar to how the body fights off other illnesses.“This is truly an exciting new day for cancer patients,” Louis J. DeGe

35、nnaro, president of the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society, said in a news release.Up until now, a long and painful marrow transplant(骨髓移植) was the only option for many leukemia patients.In this procedure, healthy blood cells are taken from a donator and placed into the sick patient, who also has to go t

36、hrough chemotherapy (化疗) to allow their body to adjust to the new cells.But with a recovery rate of around 3% according to a news release published by the FDA its hoped that the days of painful trips to the hospital, or even death, are over for leukemia sufferers.“Were entering a new frontier in med

37、ical innovation(创新) with the ability to reprogram a patients own cells to attack a deadly cancer,” FDA representative Scott Gottlieb said in the release. “New technologies such as gene and cell therapies hold the potential to transform medicine and our ability to treat and even cure many incurable i

38、llnesses.”1、What is the authors main purpose in writing the passage?ATo compare different ways of curing leukemia.BTo report on a breakthrough in cancer treatment.CTo explore the potential of gene and cell therapies.DTo show scientists efforts in search of a cure for cancer.2、How does the new treatm

39、ent to fight leukemia work?ABy using changed T-cells to destroy cancer cells.BBy replacing sick blood cells with healthy ones.CBy removing sick blood cells during marrow transplant.DBy using chemotherapy to improve the patients immune system.3、What can be inferred about the new therapy for leukemia

40、sufferers?AIt can save them many more trips to the hospital.BIt can improve their ability to fight off all kinds of cancer.CIt can give them a better chance of survival and recovery.DIt can reduce their pain in the process of marrow transplant.4、What is Scott Gottliebs attitude toward gene and cell

On Aug. 19, the executive editor of the Quad- City Times in Iowa, and Illinois, US visited her website, , and saw a story about a man who had been shot to

42、 death. When she got to the readers comments sections at the end, she was shocked by what she saw. Below the story was a growing number of commentsa racist remark about democratic votes, a negative comment about police So Phillips decided to do something she had been thinking about for a long time:

43、she shut down the comments sections.Phillips was not alone in making such a move. Last week, NPR announced k too was closing its online comments sections. The decisions dont mean that the news outlets are no longer interested in what their audiences are thinking. Both stressed their eagerness to hea

44、r from readers and listeners on social networks. But both agreed that comments had deviated from their original intention. And so they had.In early days of digital journalism, comments were seen as a key part of this new media, a wonderful opportunity for strengthening the dialogue between news prod

45、ucers and their audiences. It was a welcome change, given that for long many news organizations were far too separated from their readers. Much more back and forth conversation seemed like healthy and welcome evolution. Sadly, thats not the way things turned out. Rather than a place for exchanging i

46、deas, comments sections became the home of ugly name-calling, racism and anti-women language. Besides their poisonous quality, comments seem out of place today.“Since we made the announcement, Ive received an outpouring of responses from our readers,” she says. “Ive heard from parents whose children

47、 were hurt by our online comments. Ive heard from people who said they wouldnt send in letters to the editor because they were attacked so fiercely by comments, and wasnt worth it.”1、Why did Autumn Phillips shut down the comments sections?AThey were put to wrong use.BHer website was attacked heavily

48、.CThey exposed many illegal issues.DShe was angry about readers comments.2、What does the underlined sentence in Paragraph 3 indicate about comments?AThey were out of date.BThey had gone against their original intentions.CThey were full of sensitive information.DThey couldnt interest the audience.3、W

49、hat was the welcome change in the early digital journalism?AReaders, having more access to news.BReaders making less negative comments.CReaders freedom to express their thoughts.DReaders active involvement in the news industry.4、How do many readers feel about Autumn Phillips, move according to the l

50、ast paragraph?ACautious. BHopeful.CSurprised. DSupportive.24（8分） The poisonous domoic (藻) acid affected Alfred Hitchcock s The Birds after hundreds of them absorbed the poison in the summer of 1961 and lost their minds.The sick birds likely consumed poisonous acid via small fish. It also tends to co

51、llect in shellfish. And, according to a study published Tuesday, it may become more common as oceans warm, threatening birds and humans alike.Researchers have studied the rate of poisonous acid over the past 20 years in the Pacific Northwest, and found it strongly related to water temperatures that

52、are warmer than normal.For now, warmer waters typically comes from events like EL Nino and a decades -long climate cycle called Pacific decadal oscillation, the study found. It isnt yet clear how climate change, which also warms the oceans, might affect the rate of the poison.When waters unusually w

53、arm off our coast, its because the circulation and patterns in the atmosphere has changed, bringing warm water from elsewhere - and this is happening at the same time that we also see high poisonous acid in shellfish, Morgaine McKibben, the study s lead author said.The poison is produced during warm

54、 domoic blooms, and gets passed up the food chain by animals that eat it. Sea lions, dolphins and humans are at risk. While some animals can eventually clean themselves of the poison, the threat can last a long time after the warm water decreases.Animals poisoned by poisonous acid tend to become wea

55、k, and experience death. Symptoms in humans include headache, confusion, loss of short - term memory, weakness and unconsciousness.It isnt just a health risk. An Oregon State University statement notes that officials have to shut down shellfish harvests when poisonous acid levels are high, causing e

56、conomic harm.Since health officials first regarded poison acid as a health threat in 1987, Pacific Northwest shellfish harvests have been stopped in 2005, 2017, and 2018. The West Coast crab（蟹）industry took an estimated$100 million hit in 2017 alone.1、Why did the birds lose their mind in the summer

57、of 1961?AThey maybe had a bad memory.BThey maybe ate poisonous fish.CThey maybe collected the shellfish.DThey maybe drank warm water.2、What is the connection between the rate of poisonous acid and water temperatures?AWhen atmosphere has changed, it warms off the coast.BWhen circulation comes, the oc

58、eans get warmer.CWhen climate has changed, the oceans get colder.DWhen water becomes warmer, high poisonous acid appears.3、What result will poisonous acid cause to humans?AMaking humans conscious.BMaking humans dead.CMaking humans temporarily lose memory.DMaking humans suffer heart attack.4、Whats th
