B.They want to show off before the host.‎ C.They all long to be validated. D.They seldom have the chance to be interviewed.‎ ‎22.What is the second paragraph mainly about?‎ A.how to seek validation B.why we don't listen C.when to make our next point D.what is the best intention ‎23.As a leader,what should you do to be a more successful listener?‎ A.Find validation in your team. B.Keep your mouth closed.‎ C.Ask 80 questions and offer 20 opinions. D.Raise more questions.‎ ‎24.For what reason is a talking stick used in some meetings ?‎ A.To follow Native American traditions B.To help the team rise in spirits C.To check that everyone gets the same airtime D.To strengthen the importance of a meeting B Did you know that badminton is also a fast-paced competitive sport?Badminton has been a Summer Olympic sport since 1992.Para-badminton will be included in the 2020 Summer Olympic Games in Tokyo.Here's what you need to know if your child is interested in badminton.‎ Badminton is played on a 44-foot-long rectangular（矩形的）court that is 17 feet wide for singles and 20 feet wide for doubles.It is divided in the middle by a net placed 5 feet off the ground,like volleyball,not at ground level like tennis.‎ In competition,each match is a set of three games played to 21 points.There is a one-minute break when a player or team reaches 11 points,and a two-minute break in between the first and second games and the second and third games.‎ Age kids can start:About 6 years old.‎ Best for kids who:Have good skills,are patient and hardworking,and can handle the pressure of one-on-one or two-on-two competition.‎ Team or individual:Matches can be singles (one-on-one) or doubles (two-on-two).‎ Fun fact:Badminton is the only sport that has mixed doubles event in the Olympic Games.‎ Costs:Beginners are expected to pay $30 to $40 for an entry-level racquet（球拍）.Badminton shoes are similar in price to other athletic shoes.Join a club or team for lessons.A one-hour group lesson for beginners should cost $20 to $25,with costs increasing as your child moves up the ranks.You will also pay entry fees for competitions.‎ Time commitment required:Beginners will play for just an hour or two per week.‎ Potential for injury:Players have a very low risk of injury.Players who wear glasses should use eye protection.‎ ‎25.What can we learn about the badminton from the passage?‎ A.It's a fast-paced competitive sport which began in 1992.‎ B.The court for singles has the same width as that for doubles.‎ C.It has mixed doubles event in the Olympic Games.‎ D.Para-badminton has been included in the Summer Olympic Games.‎ ‎26.Which of the following sports is divided in the middle by a net at ground level?‎ A.Tennis.

Pew Research center said."In short, instead of replacing traditional news platforms,Americans are increasingly putting new technologies into their news consumption（消费）habits." Pew Research center said.The news consumption totals did not include Americans who get news on cellphones.‎ Pew Research center said 83 percent of Americans get news in one form or another on a daily basis while 17 percent consume no news at all.36 percent of the 3,006 adults surveyed by Pew Research center said they got news from digital and traditional sources the previous day while 39 percent said they relied only on traditional sources. Only 9 percent of those surveyed said they got news through the Internet or mobile devices without also using traditional sources.‎ The survey also found 33 percent said they regularly use search engines to find news,up from 19 percent two years ago.31 percent of those surveyed said they access the Web with their mobile phones but just 8 percent said they regularly use the device to get news.‎ ‎29.According to the text,how many means do Americans usually get news?‎ A.Four means.

"When I set up the materials for painting activity,he comes and sits next to them and waits until they are ready for painting.He does that every time.I also see where his eyes go.He does see the paints come out of the tube and land on the canvas." But not every animal wants to paint.‎ Music is another part of the arts enrichment program.Physically and mentally stimulating activities are an important part of the daily care of the animals.Trainers have a lot of tools,from tablet computer to small toys.‎ Kenton Kerns says the program helps the animals and the zookeepers in many ways.Every interaction between keepers and their animals creates some sort of connections.The one-of-a-kind works of art created by the animals are popular with zoo visitors.Many are sold at the zoo's fund-raising events.‎ ‎32.What can we learn from the second paragraph?‎ A.Francois is a two-year-old artist at the National Zoo.‎ B.Francois' way to paint is an unnatural behavior for sloth bears.‎ C.Francois paints by blowing the paints in the tubes onto the canvas.‎ D.Francois can make fantastic paintings with paintbrushes.‎ ‎33.How do the apes paint?‎ A.By blowing the tubes full of paints.

D.They create higher prices than the artists.‎ ‎35.What's the best title of the passage?‎ A.Animals need enrichment too B.Animals enjoy painting C.Painting and music are useful in the zoo D.Zoo animals show artistic side 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。‎ There might not be anything more important than taking care of your health.And doing so can be simple.It takes consistent habits to keep your body healthy throughout your life.Here are some of the habits of those living a healthy life.‎ ‎ 36 It'll help you save time and money in the long run.Spare some time,then sit down and consider your goals and needs.Do you want to lose weight?

We can not deny that there are countless uncivilized behaviors among Chinese tourists visiting other countries,such as spitting,talking loudly,littering,saying bad words in public places and so on. These bad behaviors both at home and abroad have seriously affected China’s image.‎ There are several reasons why people behave so badly. To begin with,people are not aware of the importance of self-discipline. What’s more,they lack moral education. I think the government should take some measures to fight against this trend and we ourselves should set good examples. As high school students,we should behave politely in our daily lives.‎ I believe the Chinese people will rid themselves of these rude manners in the future.‎ Yours sincerely,‎ Li Hua
