It is said that if you take care of your body, then you can surely be healthy. That is why our eyes should be given a lot of care. Natural eye care should be put in a number one place. ‎ ‎    There are several causes leading to poor eyesight like having not enough food, genes(基因)and aging(老化). Televisions, computers and reading are also the causes of having poor eyesight. If you happen to work in front of the computer, it is best to take a break every once in a while. You must also try your best to protect your eyes from harmful things. For example, sunglasses are not just for fashion but they can also serve as a great way to protect your eyesight from UV rays. ‎ ‎    Eating healthy food will do good to your eyesight. Remember that vitamins A, C and E are good ‎ for eyes. Try to eat food groups that have these vitamins. And you should do eye exercises which can protect your eyesight, too. All above are natural ways of eye care that help us to keep healthy eyes. Being happy all the time can be helpful to a person's eyesight, too. In a word, eye care is very important, no matter how old a person is. ‎ ‎（1）______ is the most important way to protect our eyes. ‎ A. Natural eye care                                               B. Taking medicine C. Seeing the doctor                                            D. Being happy all the time ‎（2）All the following causes can lead to bad eyesight EXCEPT ______ . ‎ A. aging                             B. height                             C. reading                             D. computers ‎（3）What should you do if you have to work in front of the computer? ‎ A. Eat healthy food.                                               B. Clean the eyes by using cold water.

The function, however, took on meaning and became a form of communication which signals anger. ‎ ‎    The same may be true for the animals. Baby monkeys cry for attention. They also cry to signal to an adult that they want to be carried. ‎ ‎    "Chimpanzees do make upset voice when they are being weaned (断奶) by their mothers or have lost their mothers or another individual, " says Anne Pusey, a professor at the University of Minnesota. "They whimper (呜咽) and cry and scream. When we hear these calls, the emotion involved seems obvious. However, they do not weep in the sense of producing tears. "‎ ‎    The Iowan researchers can cause the same crying sounds by producing large decreases and then increases in blood flow. The blood flow also goes down when baby rats get cold. Thus, they conclude baby rats cry in the same way that we sneeze. Of course the rat baby could be crying because he's cold and wants his mother to know. ‎ ‎（1）According to the first paragraph, what kind of emotion does "exposing the teeth" express? ‎ A. Disappointment.                     B. Excitement.                     C. Anger.                     D. Happiness.‎ ‎（2）Which is one probable reason why young chimpanzees might be crying? ‎ A. They meet their brother.                                   B. They have nothing to eat. C. They are being breast-fed.                               D. They are parted from their mother.‎ ‎（3）Under what circumstance will baby rats cry just like humans' sneeze? ‎ A. Their blood flow is decreased.                         B. They feel cold and long for affection. C. Their blood flow is increased.                          D. Their mother brings them back home.‎ ‎（4）Where is the passage most likely taken from? ‎ A. An animal journal.                                            B. A physiology book. C. A health magazine.                                           D. A cultural newspaper.‎ ‎4.阅读理解 ‎ ‎    It is common to see many different kinds of insects while spending time outside in the summer. Some of them do not trouble people and can even add beauty to the natural environment. Other insects can harm the environment or humans. The population of these insects seems to stay ‎ large and healthy.‎ ‎    But scientists say this does not appear to be true for some flying insects that serve an important purpose. There is growing evidence that these insects are decreasing across the world.‎ ‎    One researcher looking into the present insect population is Doug Tallamy, a professor at the University of Delaware. He remembers walking through Washington D. C., in the past when it was "alive with insects, especially butterflies". Now, he said, "The flying insects are actually gone." Wilson said this point seemed to be proved during a drive he made last year from Boston to Vermont. He was surprised that, during his trip, he counted only one insect that had hit the car's front window. Several other scientists have carried out similar tests by checking how many insects hit their cars while traveling.‎ ‎    While researchers admit this method is not scientific, they say it can still help them understand the changing flying insect population. There have not been many studies done on the flying insect populations covering large areas. However, some international research suggests a downward turn. In 2006, a group of studies showed that there had been a 14-percent drop in ladybugs(瓢虫) in the United States and Canada from 1987 to 2006. In Germany, a 2017 study found an 82-percent drop in the number of flying insects compared to levels recorded in 1990.‎ ‎    After the German study, other countries also started looking into the problem. David Wagner of the University of Connecticut says other evidence leads him to believe the findings of the 2017 study are "clearly not a German thing".‎ ‎（1）The underlined word "this" in Paragraph 2 refers to the fact that _________. ‎ A. The insects cause trouble to people.               B. The insects harm the environment. C. The insects are numerous and healthy.           D. The insects love staying indoors.‎ ‎（2）How does Wilson try to prove the flying insects are gone? ‎ A. By making some comparisons.                        B. By using his personal experience. C. By listing research results.                                D. By studying the causes.‎ ‎（3）What does David Wagner think of the 2017 German study? ‎ A. He considers the study isn't done in German ways. B. He thinks it's less believable than other evidence. C. He considers the German study is a good start. D. He thinks other places also have the problem.‎ ‎（4）In which section of a magazine may this text appear? ‎ A. Nature.                        B. Education.                        C. Entertainment.                        D. Health.‎ 二、任务型阅读（共5小题；每小题2分）‎ ‎5.根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填空白处的最佳选项。 ‎ ‎    Proven Ways to Make a Good First Impression (印象)‎ ‎    Want to be more memorable? These tips will help you have a lasting connection with anyone you meet.‎ ‎    Smile!‎ ‎    People who smile tend to manage and sell more effectively, and raise happier children. Your facial expression is typically the first thing someone notices about you when they make a judgement. ________‎ ‎    Think about your purposes ‎ ‎    ________ Do you want to make a new friend? Network? Strike a business deal?

solve；normally；studied；than；comfortable；breath；a；that/which；is；making ‎ ‎【考点】语法填空 ‎ ‎【解析】【分析】本文是一篇说明文，某些人做数学题时会驼背，这是因为姿势能帮助人们减少压力。但是不好的姿势不会帮助大脑运作。虽然不好的姿势可能会让人觉得舒服，但是不能缓解压力。很多不好的姿势是可以在任意年龄矫正的。 （1）考查非谓语动词。句意：以前你可能没注意到，当人们在困境时，许多人经常驼背坐着。像努力解决数学题。try to do sth.固定短语，”努力做某事“，故填to solve。 （2）考查副词。句意：不良的姿势可能使我们的大脑不能像通常那样工作。副词修饰动词作状语，故填normally。 （3）考查时态。句意： Peper 和研究团队研究了125个学生在数学考试中的表现和他们的不同姿势。实验是在之前做的，用一般过去时，故填studied。 （4）考查连词。句意：径直站起来能让人们比紧张时做的坏姿势表现得好。这里是比较的关系，填than。 （5）考查形容词。feel后面接形容词作表语，故填comfortable。 （6）考查名词。句意：因此下次你必须考试的时候，尝试坐直做深呼吸。take a breath固定短语，”深呼吸，故填breath。 （7）考查冠词。句意：如果Peper的研究时正确的，这个小小的变化可能对你有很大的影响。后面的influence是单数，所以填a。 （8）考查定语从句。句意：有许多导致不良姿势的事情。          lead to poor posture是限制性定语从句，先行词是things，从句缺主语，故填which。

‎【解析】【分析】本文是一篇记叙文，作者和丈夫参观法国时，去一家商店购物．在一家挂着各式衣服的商店里，没有发现他们所需要的东西．当要离开时，作者的丈夫发现这家商店是干洗店。 （1）考查非谓语动词。we与visit之间是主谓关系，用现在分词短语visiting France作状语，故visit 改为 visiting。 （2）考查名词。kind是可数名词。其前有all修饰时用复数形式，故kind 改为 kinds。 （3）考查宾语从句。句意：一位妇女走过来问她是否能帮助我们。宾语从句应由whether/if引导，故that 改为 whether/if。 ‎ ‎ （4）考查固定短语。would like to do sth 固定短语，“想要做某事”，故在look前家to。 （5）考查代词。此处she指代前文的a woman，故He 改为 She。 （6）考查副词。look 是动词，要用副词修饰，故strange 改为 strangely。 （7）考查语态。句意：我们感谢了她，然后离开了。leave用主动语态，故去掉 were。 （8）考查介词。“用英语”英语表达是：in English，因此with 改为 in. （9）考查时态。根据“Suddenly my husband started to laugh”的时态，可知which引导的定语从句，谓语动词用一般过去时，故reads改为read。 （10）考查连词。句意：如果你是一个烟民，请不要在这里吸烟。根据句意可知Unless改为If。 【点评】本题考点涉及非谓语动词，名词，宾语从句，代词，副词，语态，介词以及时态等多个知识点的考查，是一篇故事类阅读，覆盖面广，综合性强，难度较大，区分度高。‎ 六、书面表达（满分25分） ‎
