D.Visitor Center host.‎ B Do you know what to do if you see a bird with a broken wing in your backyard,or a hurt ‎ raccoon(浣熊)by the side of the road?Use your phone!‎ It’s never a good idea to touch a wild animal or to try to help one without professional guidance.The animal might be dangerous to you,and you could cause further injury without meaning to.‎ That’s why the wildlife-rescue organization Animal Watch has created a new mobile app.The app helps users find the right solutions for animals that need urgent(紧急的)care.‎ Animal Help Now uses your phone’s GPS to find where the animal is located.Then the app asks questions about the animal:Is it wild or raised by humans?Is it a pet or a farm animal?Could the animal put humans in danger?‎ Based on the location,the time of day,the type of animal,and the injury,Animal Help Now will suggest a care provider that’s right for your situation.For wild animals,the app might suggest a nearby rescue facility that specializes in wounded wildlife.Or it might point you to registered care takers who nurse back to health animals that have been hurt in the wild.For pets or farm animals,the app lists the nearest veterinarians(兽医)who care for the type of animal that has been injured.‎ ‎“The app is designed to work even when you don’t have cell or Internet access.”Animal Watch director Dave Crawford tells National Public Radio.‎ ‎“So whether you’re driving through a remote area on the eastern Colorado plains,hiking a trail in Rocky Mountain National Park,or simply passing through a dead zone on your way to work,you’ll still be able to immediately find the help you need.”For now,Animal Help Now works only in Colorado,where Animal Watch is based.But the organization hopes to include information for users across the country.”‎ ‎24.If you help injured animals by yourself,you may ________.‎ A.become a danger to them B.do more harm to them C.make them become wilder D.leave them in a dangerous situation ‎25.It can be inferred that Animal Help Now is ________.‎ A.an organization B.a website C.a mobile app D.a company ‎26.According to Dave,the app ________.‎ A.can work anywhere in Colorado B.stops working on your way back C.includes information across the country D.needs to have access to the Internet ‎27.The best title for the passage may be ________.‎ ‎ A.Helping the Injured Animals in Time ‎ B.Saving Animals with Your Phone ‎ C.Providing Care for Wild Animals ‎ D.Making a Call to Help Animals C ‎ Few people can resist the lure (诱惑) of a delicious ice cream, especially on a hot day. The only thing that spoils the fun is that the treat is hard to enjoy slowly often ending up with a sticky, melted mess. Now, researchers from Colombia's Pontificia Bolivariana University may have found an unlikely partner to help solve this age-old problem- cellulose fiber (纤维素) extracted from banana plant waste.‎ Bananas, as you probably know, grow in bunches on a tree-like plant. Each bunch is attached to a central stalk, called a rahis (叶轴),which is thrown once the fruit has been harvested. The team, led by Dr. Rotin Zuluaga Gallego, began by extracting cellulose nanofibrils (CNs) from powdered rachis. The tasteless, odorless macro fibers, thousands of times smaller than the width of a human hair, were then added in various concentrations to 100 grams of ice cream mix.‎ With the right amount of CNFs mixed in, the dessert lasted longer in its frozen state than conventional ice cream, extending both its shelf life and the amount of time the treat can be enjoyed. Even more exciting was that the fibers increased the stickiness of low-fat ice cream to levels higher than the full-fat one. Since this is what determines the frozen treat's creaminess and texture, CNFs could help create healthier ice cream without compromising on taste.‎ The researchers, who presented their findings at the American Chemical Society (ACS) meeting in New Orleans on March 21, 2018, next plan to investigate how different types of fat, such as coconut oil, affect the behavior of CNFs in other frozen treats.‎ The Colombian researchers are not the only one working on creating a slower-melting ice cream. In 2015, scientists at the University of Dundee in Scotland found that a naturally occurring protein called BSIA (Bacterial Surface Layer A) was remarkably effective in keeping the treat frozen for longer periods of time. With both teams competing to be the first to get to market, the future of everyone's favorite dessert certainly looks promising ‎28.What prevents people enjoying an ice cream slowly?‎ A.A kind of fiber from banana. B.The ice cream's stickiness.‎ C.The hot weather. D.The ice cream's quick melting.‎ ‎29.Why were CNFs added to ice cream mix?‎ A.To improve is flavor. B.To reduce its fat content.‎ C.To make it melt more slowly. D.To add to its nutrition.‎ ‎30.What can be inferred from the last paragraph?‎ A.Ice cream with BsIA has been on sale at the market.‎ B.Slowly enjoying an ice cream will soon become a reality.‎ C.CNFs are more useful and effective than BslA.‎ D.The Colombian research team has taken the lead in the competition with the Scottish team.‎ ‎31.What's the author's attitude towards the finding of CNFs?‎ A.Positive. B.Casual.‎ C.Defensive D.Suspicious.‎ D Grown-ups are often surprised by how well they remember something they learned as children but have never practiced ever since. A man who has not had a chance to go swimming for years can still swim as well as ever when he gets back in the water. He can get on a bicycle after many years and still ride away. He can play, catch and hit a ball as well as his son. A mother who has not thought about the words for years can teach her daughter the poem that begins “Twinkle, twinkle, little star” or remember the story of Cinderella or Goldilocks and the Three Bears.‎ One explanation is the law of overlearning, which can be stated as follows: Once we have learned something, extra learning trials (尝试) increase the length of time we will remember it.‎ In childhood we usually continue to practice such skills as swimming, bicycle riding, and playing baseball long after we have learned them. We continue to listen to and remind ourselves of words such as “Twinkle, twinkle, little star” and childhood tales such as Cinderella and Goldilocks. We not only learn but overlearn.‎ The multiplication tables (乘法口诀表) are an exception (例外) to the general rule that we forget rather quickly the things that we learn in school, because they are another of the things we overlearn in childhood.‎ The law of overlearning explains why cramming (突击学习) for an examination, though it may result in a passing grade, is not a satisfactory way to learn a college course. By cramming, a student ‎ may learn the subject well enough to get by on the examination, but he is likely soon to forget almost everything he learned. A little overlearning, on the other hand, is really necessary for one’s future development.‎ ‎32.What is the main idea of Paragraph 1?‎ A.People remember well what they learned in childhood.‎ B.Children have a better memory than grown-ups.‎ C.Poem reading is a good way to learn words.‎ D.Stories for children are easy to remember.‎ ‎33.The author explains the law of overlearning by ________.‎ A.presenting research findings B.setting down general rules C.making a comparison D.using examples ‎34.What does the word “they” in Paragraph 4 refer to?‎ A.Commonly accepted rules.‎ B.The multiplication tables.‎ C.Things easily forgotten.‎ D.School subjects.‎ ‎35.What is the author’s opinion on cramming?‎ A.It’s helpful only in a limited way.‎ B.It leads to failure in college exams.‎ C.It’s possible to result in poor memory.‎ D.It increases students’ learning interest.‎ 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。‎ ‎__36__ When a person does a certain thing again and again,he is driven by some unseen force to do the same thing repeatedly,then a habit is formed.Once a habit is formed,it is difficult,and sometimes impossible to get rid of.__37__ Children often form bad habits,some of which remain ‎ with them as long as they live.Older persons also form bad habits and sometimes become ruined by them.‎ ‎__38__ Many successful men say that much of their success has something to do with certain habits in early life,such as early rising,honesty and thoroughness.‎ Among the habits which children should not form are laziness,lying,stealing and so on.__39__ Unfortunately,older persons often form habits which ought to have been avoided.__40__‎ A.There are other habits which,when formed in early life,are of great help.‎ B.Whether the habits are good or not,they are easy to get rid of.‎ C.We ought to keep away from all these bad habits,and try to form good habits.‎ D.Habits,whether good or bad,are gradually formed.‎ E.It is very important for us to know why we should get used to good habits.‎ F.These are all easily formed habits.‎ G.It is therefore very important that we should pay great attention to the formation of habits.‎ 第三部分 英语知识运用 第一节 完形填空(共20小题,每小题1.5分,满分30分)‎ ‎ 阅读下面短文,从短文后各题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。‎ ‎  I used to abandon myself to despair.

Tears welled up in my eyes whenever I was alone.‎ Last month I 44 a precious watch, which was an 18-year-old birthday gift from my father.
