travel to the Land of the Dead. The belief is that spirits return to the world of the living, for one day. The spirits are
greeted with offerings of their favorite food and drinks.
Carnival of Venice, Italy
The origins of the Venice Carnival are found in two different ancient traditions: the Latin Saturnalia and the

For many runners, a marathon can often be a challenge — but sometimes what gets a runner through the tough
26.2 miles is looking out into the crowd and seeing his or her loved one holding up a sign and shouting words of
encouragement. For one mom, though, her loved one was a bit more hands- on.
While running the REVEL Big Cottonwood Marathon in Salt Lake City, Courtney Rich, a self-taught baker
and mother of two, was beginning to run out of energy just yards from the end when she was suddenly joined by
her 10-year- old daughter, Avery.
The touching moment, caught on video and posted on social media, shows Avery running to her mother's side
to support her as she approached the end of the race. Rich's face lit up when Avery joined her and helped her cross
the finish line.
Rich later said in the video's caption that being joined by her daughter to finish the race was a moment I hope
neither of us ever forget. Rich said that her daughter could tell she was struggling after a phone call near the end of
the race. She knew I had struggled the last few miles, Rich said. She saw tears in my eyes when I called on mile
24.
In the video, Rich's facial expression changes from tiredness to a smile after seeing her daughter emerge from
the crowd to join her. Then, Rich and her daughter ran hand- in- hand to the finish line. Nothing could have
prepared me for the moment my 10-year- old daughter would jump out of the crowd and run with me to the finish
line, she said. When the race was done, the two hugged each other at the finish line. The video ends with a final
caption, And then she just held me. She held me.
In the past, the REVEL Big Cottonwood Marathon has had other memorable moments of mothers caring for
their children, but perhaps not as hands- on as this one.
39. What happened to Rich when she was coming to the finish line?
A. She fell down all of a sudden. B. She was far behind others.
C. She felt herself struggling. D. She was interrupted by Avery.
40. How did Avery react to the accident?
A. She helped Rich run to the finish line.
B. She tried to call for help at once.
C. She ran the rest in place of Rich.
D. She shouted encouraging words to Rich.
41. How did Rich feel about Avery's response?
A. Doubtful. B. Content. C. Concerned. D. Expected.
42. What can be the best title for the text?
A. A Mother Would Never Give Up On Her Marathon Dream
B. A Mother Encouraged Her Daughter To Pursue Her Dream
C. A Daughter Got Involved In Her Mother's Race By Mistake
D. A Daughter Cheered For Her Mother By Joining In Her Race
C
Have you ever seen your cat or dog eating grass? They do so because it can help their digestion, and many
wild species use natural substances to prevent and control diseases. This is called zoo pharmacognosy or, more
commonly, animal self- medication.
Scientists have discovered that tamarin monkeys use a specific tree resin （ 树 脂 ） as medicine. In the
Brazilian Atlantic Forest, scientists followed several groups of them to collect data. During one of these daily
studies, tamarin monkeys were observed rubbing their bodies on the trunk of a tree. At first, researchers thought
that they were marking their territory, a common behaviour in this species. Botanical experts later confirmed that
the tree was a species of cabreuva, which is well known for its medical properties.
Researchers decided to place camera- traps in different sites at the foot of the tree to record future visits by
tamarin monkeys. The records surprisingly showed that many animals living in the forest visited it. Totally, ten
species were observed. For many of them, it was the first time that behaviors similar to self- medication had been
observed. More surprisingly, one species spread resin on each other's fur in pairs. In general, the species seemed to
specifically visit the tree to acquire the resin and seemingly benefit from it, either healing their wounds or fighting
back parasites（寄生虫）.
While further studies are needed to identify the properties of the resin and thus confirming that this is indeed
self- medication, the use of it suggests that cabreuva represents a common and universal drugstore for the residents
of the Brazilian Atlantic Forest. It is likely to be a valuable resource helping the species maintain their magnitude
by improving their health.
This discovery could have an important protection influence, as the disappearance of some trees could
potentially affect the survival of some animals.
43. Why do tamarin monkeys rub themselves against the tree?
A. They would like to digest what they eat.
B. They are trying to cure diseases.
C. They are attracting companions' attention.
D. They feel like occupying the land.
44. What do researchers find through camera- traps?
A. Animals can help each other clean the fur.
B. Many animals copy monkeys' behaviors.
C. Resin can be used as medicine for some animals
D. The cabreduva is the habitat of tamarin monkeys.
45. What does the underlined word magnitude in paragraph 4 probably mean?
A. Characteristics. B. Populations. C. Flexibilities. D. Similarities.
46. What is the possible significance of the discovery?
A. Increasing the production of resin. B. Promoting evolution of creatures.
C. Motivating the study of monkeys' diet. D. Contributing to forest conservation.
D
On September 7, 1991, the costliest hailstorm （雹暴） in Canadian history hit Calgary's southern suburbs.
As a result, since 1996 a group of insurance companies have spent about $2 million per year on the Alberta Hail
Suppression Project. Airplanes seed threatening storm cells with a chemical to make small ice crystals fall as rain
before they can grow into dangerous hailstones. But farmers in east- central Alberta — downwind of the hail
project flights — worry that precious moisture（ 水 分 ） is being stolen from their thirsty land by the cloud
seeding.
Norman Stienwand, who farms in that area, has been addressing public meetings on this issue for years.
Basically, the provincial government is letting the insurance companies protect the Calgary-Edmonton urban area
from hail, Mr Stienwand says, but they're increasing drought risk as far east as Saskatchewan.
The Alberta hail project is managed by Terry Krauss, a cloud physicist who works for Weather Modification
Inc. of Fargo, North Dakota. We affect only a very small percentage of the total moisture in the air, so we cannot
be causing drought, Dr Krauss says. In fact, we may be helping increase the moisture downwind by creating
wetter ground.
One doubter about the safety of cloud seeding is Chuck Doswell, a research scientist who just retired from the
University of Oklahoma. In 1999, I personally saw significant tornadoes（龙卷风） form from a seeded storm
cell in Kansas, Dr Doswell says. Does cloud seeding create killer storms or reduce moisture downwind? No one
really knows, of course, but the seeding goes on.
Given the degree of doubt, Mr Stienwand suggests, it would be wise to stop cloud seeding. In practice,
doubt has had the opposite effect. Due to the lack of scientific proof concerning their impacts, no one has
succeeded in winning a lawsuit against cloud- seeding companies. Hence, private climate engineering can proceed
in relative legal safety.
47. What does the project aim to do?
A. Conserve moisture in the soil. B. Prevent the formation of hailstones.
C. Forecast disastrous hailstorms. D. Investigate chemical use in farming.
48. Who are opposed to the project?
A. Farmers in east- central Alberta. B. Managers of insurance companies.
C. Provincial government officials. D. Residents of Calgary and Edmonton.
49. Why does Dr Doswell mention the tornadoes he saw in 1999?
A. To compare different kinds of seeding methods.
B. To illustrate the development of big hailstorms.
C. To indicate a possible danger of cloud seeding.
D. To show the link between storms and moisture.
50. What can we infer from the last paragraph?
A. Scientific studies have proved Stienwand right.
B. Private climate engineering is illegal in Canada.
C. The doubt about cloud seeding has disappeared.
D. Cloud- seeding companies will continue to exist.

阅读下列短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
If you travel to nearly any Chinese city in the summertime, you will see people, mostly men wearing T- shirts,
sitting out on the sidewalks on low chairs in the shade, playing a game with large round disks of wood. 51
Xiangqi dates back as early as the Warring States period. While experts have different opinions as to who created
Xiangqi and how it is linked to Western chess, there is no doubt that by the Tang Dynasty Xiangqi was a popular
game in China. 52 And in the 20th century both Sun Yat-sen and Zhou Enlai were big fans of the game.
And though it may look quite a bit different than Western chess, Xiangqi is actually quite similar in what the
pieces can do and how the game is played. Like Western chess, the object of the game is to capture the other
player's king. Actually, in Xiangqi he is just a general.
53 Another big difference between Western chess and Xiangqi is that there is a large empty space in
the middle of the board, which the elephants cannot cross. 54 This space refers to an area in China where
Liu Bang and Xiang Yu had a life-or-death war. The war was so influential that the Chu River and the Han
Boundary has become a metaphor（隐喻） referring to any boundary between two opposing armies. When the
Chinese people today see this name on the board, the battle scenes come to their mind, as though they are
surrounded by thick smoke, able to hear the beating of war drums. 55
A. Unlike Western chess, instead of placing the pieces in squares, the pieces are placed on the intersections of lines.
B. During the Qing Dynasty its popularity grew.
C. It is called the Chu River and the Han Boundary.
D. The game is called Xiangqi, a game of ordinary people.
E. There are many differences between Xiangqi and Western chess.
F. An intense battle is about to take place on this small chessboard.
G. Several sayings related to Xiangqi are in common use in China today.

阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。
Last Sunday morning, my parents and I were going on a vacation in Sydney, where my grandparents lived, to
celebrate my birthday. Actually, celebrating my birthday in my grandparents' home had been a family tradition. As
a result, their neighbors, warm- hearted and friendly, were familiar with me. Sometimes, they even came to the
house and brought me birthday gifts in person.
We took the subway there as usual. When we got off the subway, I found I had lost my bag. The bag was
memorable to me because it was given by my parents when I became a senior high school student. It also had some
valuable items inside, including an expensive watch, a birthday gift from my grandparents.
I couldn't help but cry because the bag meant so much to me. What's the matter, Lily? My mom asked. I told
her that I might leave the bag on the subway. Hearing that, she comforted me and said, We have plenty of time.
Let's talk to the staff.
Instantly, my parents reported the situation to the staff at the subway station. A kind worker smiled to me and
said, If someone found it, they would hand it in. He asked us to wait patiently for a while, and then he called for
help. After half an hour, the worker didn't give us any information. I started to become anxious and lose hope. My
father said, No news is good news. However, the worker finally apologized to us and let us wait for the
information on the recovery of the missing bag at home. We had to go to my grandparents' house first.
In the afternoon, while I, together with my grandparents and my father, was preparing for a birthday party, I
heard my mother talking to someone on the phone about my lost bag. My heart was beating violently, and I was
expecting something extraordinary to happen. Sure enough, my mother got me to answer the phone, Good news,
Lily. The call is just for you, from the kind worker. He said a girl called Beatrice had sent the bag back. I felt
amazed that the girl's name is the same as my friend's in Sydney.
1.续写词数应为 150 左右；
2.请按格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
I took the phone, and then the voice of the worker who had helped us at the subway station came from it.
My family and I were dancing happily when someone knocked at the door.
