Getting train information and cheap train tickets has never been easier. Online train ticket booking makes it easy for travelers to look through China’s train timetable, compare train fares, and look for ticket availability. Once you’ve found a suitable train, you can book online and pick your tickets up at the train station or get them delivered to your home or hotel. Train tickets can be booked online a minimum of 35 minutes and a maximum of 60 days before departure How to choose train types When you’re buying China train tickets online, you’ll notice that the journey duration differs depending on which type of train you choose. China train types can be recognized by their letter codes G, D and C trains are high-speed trains, while Z, T and K are slower or overnight trains. China’s high-speed trains run between Chinese provincial capitals and first-tier Chinese cities. G trains (high-speed trains, standing for gāotiě) are China’s bullet trains—the fastest trains with a maximum speed of 400 km／h. Tickets for these trains are the most expensive.‎ How to buy train tickets Unless you can read Chinese, there are only two ways to make train reservations in China:‎ ‎—Online train ticket booking with a travel agency (up to 60 days before departure).‎ ‎—At the train station／local ticket agency with your passport (up to 58 days before departure).‎ How to read train tickets When reading your train ticket, please take note of the Chinese characters and Pinyin printed next to your departure / arrival city. Directions (North, South, East, and West) appear in Pinyin (Bei, Nan, Dong, and Xi), not English. Please make sure you are going to the correct train station.‎ ‎21．What can we learn from the first paragraph?‎ A.It’s difficult to get train information in China.‎ B.Traveling by train in China is not very expensive.‎ C.You can get on the train without tickets after booking online.‎ D.Train tickets online are available at any time within 60 days before you leave.‎ ‎22. If Mr. Smith needs to travel from Jinan to Beijing for something emergent, he’d better take _________.‎ A. Z trains B. G trains C. D trains D. Overnight trains ‎23．Who are the intended readers of the passage?‎ A. Foreign travelers B. Native tourists. C. Businessmen. D. Travel agencies.‎ B A school in the UK is giving boys lessons in zumba and ballet to encourage the idea that PE is gender neutral （不分性性别的）.Steve Frenzel, a school officer, says that boys should be offered different activities in sport including dance. They should see dance as something they can enjoy just as much as girls.‎ However, giving boys more choices will not solve the problem of girls’ disengagement （不参 与））with sport, since for years, girls have been excluded from playing sport like football and cricket.‎ A research done by Women in Sport showed that girls begin to lose interest in sport when they are as young as six. "At around the age of six or seven girls start to drop out of sport. What is interesting is that this is the same time that boys start doing more,” said Ruth Holdaway, the chief executive of Women in Sport. “What seems to be happening is up until that age, boys and girls feel the same ——they just run around, they don't think about what they are doing, they will explore, they will climb."‎ Teachers should not make any assumptions about which sport girls or boys would like to play. Often teachers will be surprised if they ask girls what they want. There will be an assumption that they want to do dance and many of them will, but they might also want to play football or cricket.‎ Other steps schools can take to encourage girls to play sport could include making adaptations to changing rooms.‎ Girls may think, “If I am going to get hot and sweaty, I need to put my hair up, I need to take it back down, and if I don't have a mirror, I can't do that."‎ Small changes like allowing girls more time in the changing rooms, and putting up mirrors, may ‎ encourage them to run around and get hot and sweaty during PE lessons.‎ ‎24. The school mentioned in Paragraph 1 is ‎ A. training boys to be dancers B. opening dance classes for special-needs students C. offering boys chances to do all kinds of sport D. encouraging boys to be more active in PE classes ‎25. What did the research by Women in Sport show?‎ A. Boys get recognized for doing sport.‎ B. Girls lose interest in sport at a very young age.‎ C. Boys are bom with greater interest in sport than girls.‎ D. Girls are more willing to do dance as they grow older.‎ ‎26. What does the underlined word “adaptations" in Paragraph 5 mean?‎ A. Wishes. B. Changes. C. Suggestions. D. Explanations.‎ ‎27. What's the author's purpose in writing the text?‎ A. To introduce. B. To praise. C. To describe. D. To discuss.‎ C Seeing the long-term benefit of saving energy, many cities and towns have recently replaced their old street lights with new LED ones. But, in doing.so, they may be affecting people's sleep and putting the health of humans and other animals at risk, says a new report from the American Medical Association（AMA）. ‎ The AMA says certain high intensity(强度）)LEDs can produce a disability glare and a prison atmosphere. People of Davis, California, Cambridge, Massachusetts, and elsewhere have complained about 4000K lights and campaigned to get the lighting replaced with 3000K types, or failing that, so they don't spread light so widely.‎ More seriously, the 4000K LED units produce 29 % of their luminance(亮度）as blue light that humans sense as a harsh｛(强烈刺眼的）type of white light, the AMA says. Research suggests this light could harm health, compared with traditional street lighting.‎ ‎"Brighter nighttime lighting is connected with reduced sleep time, dissatisfaction with sleep quality, nighttime awakenings, damaged daytime functioning, and obesity," the report says. "White LED street lighting could also cause chronic disease(性病）in the populations of cities in which they have been fixed."‎ Blue light, whether from street lights, tablets or shoes, is thought to affect our body. At dusk it normally reduces our body temperature, limits appetite （胃 口）and makes us sleepy. Some researchers think blue light is connected with certain cancers.‎ Cities and towns need to balance the financial savings from fixing some LED lights with the public health effects. The AMA suggests that 3000K or lower lighting for outdoor areas such as roadways should be used.‎ ‎28. What are people in some places complaining about?‎ A. Their street lights are too old.‎ B. LED street lights are too bright.‎ C. The street lights waste too much energy.‎ D. They have to pay tax for LED street lights.‎ ‎29. One bad effect of blue light is that .‎ A. it makes people lose weight B. it increases people's body temperature C. it causes people to eat less in the evening D. it is regarded as the main reason for many cancers ‎30. The AMA suggests that cities and towns should .‎ A. save money by using more LEDs B. rebuild some roadways to save energy C. use 4000K lights to replace 3000K lights D. consider people's health when using LEDs ‎31. What's the main idea of the text?‎ A. The advantages of LEDs.‎ B. White light and blue light.‎ C. It's time to get serious about light pollution.‎ D. It's important to save energy by using LEDs.‎ C For the 17 years my life was very happy. Then the first sad thing happened. My mother became very ill, and soon she knew that she was dying. Just before she died, she asked Elizabeth and me to go to her room. She held our hands and said, “Victor and Elizabeth, my children, I’m very happy because you love each other, and because one day you’ll get married. Everyone in the family loves you, Elizabeth. Will you take my place in the family, my dear? I can die happy if you look after them when I have gone.”‎ My mother died and we were very sad, because we loved her dearly. Elizabeth was brave and helped us; her sweet smile gave us some happiness in the unhappy days after my mother’s death. The time came for me to go to university. I didn’t want to leave my sad family, but we all knew that I should go. It was hard to leave, too, because the parents of my good friend Henry would not let him go to university with me. So I had gone alone.‎ On my first day at university I met my teacher, Professor Waldman, who was one of the greatest scientists in the world. He gave a wonderful talk to all the students who were starting at the university. He ended his talk by saying, “Some of you will become the greatest scientists of tomorrow. You must study hard and discover everything that you can. This is why God made you intelligent—to help other people.”‎ After the professor’s talk, I thought very carefully. I remembered the storm when I was 15; I remembered how the lightning had destroyed the tree. From then on, I wanted to use electricity to help people, and I wanted to discover the secrets of life. I decided to work on these two things. ‎ I started to work the next day. I worked very hard and soon Professor Waldman and I realized that I could learn to be a very good scientist.‎ The professor helped me very much, and other important scientists who were his friends helped me, too. I was interested in my work and I did not take one day’s holiday during the next two years, I did not go home, and my letters to my family were very short.‎ After two years, I had discovered many things and I built a scientific machine that was the best in the university. My machine would help me answer the most important question of all. How does life begin? Is it possible to put life into dead things? To answer these questions about life I had to learn first about death. I had to watch bodies from the moment when they died and the warm life left them. In the hospital and in the university, I watched the dying and the dead. Day after day, month after month, I followed death, so it was a dark and terrible time.‎ I built a tall mast about 150 meters high, which is higher than the tallest building in the city, to ‎ catch lightning and send the electricity down to my machine in the lab. I believed I could use that electricity to give life to things that were dead.‎ Then one day, the answer came to me. Suddenly I was sure that I knew the secret of life.‎ ‎32.Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?‎ A．Victor did not want to leave his family because his mother died not long before.‎ B．Elizabeth married shortly after Victor’s mother died.‎ C．Elizabeth was a brave girl who loved Victor and gave him much help.‎ D．Victor’s mother was very angry when she knew he loved Elizabeth.‎ ‎33.Victor did all the following during his research in the university EXCEPT that .‎ A．he discovered many things and built a scientific machine B．he learnt much about death both in the hospitals and in the university C．he built a tall mast to catch lightning and send the electricity down to the lab D．he worked hard and took only one day’s holiday during the next two years ‎34.According to the author, the secret of life is to .‎ A．use electricity to cure diseases B．build the best machine to learn about death C．become the greatest scientist of tomorrow D．give life to things that were dead by using electricity ‎35.Which is the correct order about the life of Victor?‎ ‎① Victor’s mother passed away. ‎ ‎② Victor got help from the professor and other scientists.‎ ‎③ Victor went to university and attended the professor’s talk.‎ ‎④ Victor found the answer to giving life to things that were dead.‎ ‎⑤ Victor experienced a storm, seeing the lightning destroying the tree.‎ A．①②③④⑤ B．⑤①③②④ C．①③②⑤④ D．⑤①②④③‎ 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，选项中有两项是多余选项。‎ 根据短文内容，从短文后七个选项中能选出填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。‎ We just went Christmas shopping this weekend, just to pick up a little here and there for the kids. ___36___.
