That strong wish inspired Spencer to start what she calls a “Walk of Love”, a 6,000-mile trek (长途徒步旅行）along the British coastline.‎ ‎“Elizabeth particularly loved the beach and the sea and we visited the seaside a lot. After she passed away, I went to the seaside and it was the first time I had felt some comfort,” Spencer said. “I knew this was what I had to do. It was something I could do and it would somehow make life more bearable.”‎ On Valentine's Day, Spencer began walking Durdle Door in Dorset, England, the last beach she took Elizabeth to before she became ill. So far, Spencer has journeyed about 1,500 miles, walking through Dorset, Cornwall, Devon and the entire coast of Wales. Every day, except Saturday, Spencer walks 20 miles. Often locals join her; many times they share stories about losing their own children.‎ Everything changed for Spencer on Nov. 22, 2015. Spencer noticed Elizabeth was ill with what she thought—was a chest infection. But the girl’s health worsened rapidly. Doctors diagnosed her with a life-threatening immune condition where the immune cells damage tissue and organ. This caused Elizabeth's organs to shut down and stopped the blood supply to her arms and legs. She was moved to Bristol Children's Hospital where she spent 18 days on life support before passing away on Dec. 10.‎ After Elizabeth died, Spencer struggled. She stayed with friends because it felt too hard to live in a house with the memories of Elizabeth. In January, a friend encouraged Spencer to go for a walk and the two ended up at the Gower Peninsula in Wales. That's when she realized she wanted to walk along the coast for her daughter.‎ While walking provides Spencer with time to grieve (感到悲痛)，she’s also using the trip to raise￡100,000(about $144,000) for the Bristol .Children’s Hospital. She admired the doctors and nurses and wanted to raise money to allow 12‎ ‎ another family access to treatment.‎ Spencer expects to complete her walk next spring. She’d love to finish on Valentine’s Day, but doesn’t know if that is realistic.‎ ‎25．Why did Natalia Spencer decide to walk along the British coastline?‎ A. To realize her daughter's dream. B. To remember her dead daughter.‎ C. To share stories with people around. D. To raise money for a children’s hospital.‎ ‎26．What does Paragraph 3 mainly talk about?‎ A. Spencer’s story-sharing with the local people. B. Spencer’s daily life after Elizabeth’s death.‎ C. Spencer’s memory of traveling with Elizabeth. D. Spencer's walking along the coastline.‎ ‎27．What do we know about Elizabeth?‎ A. She encouraged her mother to walk around Britain.‎ B. She once walked along the entire British coast.‎ C. She died of an immune-system disease. D. She fell sick as a result of a chest infection.‎ ‎28．What could be the best title for the text?‎ A. A Little Girl’s Struggle with a Strange Disease. B. A Mother’s Effort to Save Her Daughter.‎ C. A Woman's Action to Raise Money for Children. D. A Mother’s Walk to Honor Her Lost Child.‎ C Were dinosaurs (恐龙) warm-blooded or cold-blooded? According to a new study, scientists have found that they were somewhere in the middle. This new study shows that dinosaurs were very different from most of today’s animals that are either warm or cold-blooded.‎ ‎“I think we were all surprised by this,” said Felisa Smith from the University of New Mexico. “The idea certainly took some getting used to.”‎ A study by a team of scientists led by John M. Grady of the university studied 12‎ ‎ many different kinds of dinosaurs in their research. They looked at growth rate (比率), body temperature and body size of different kinds of dinosaurs.‎ How are warm-blooded animals different from cold-blooded animals? Warm-blooded animals like humans can control their body temperature. They eat a lot, and burn calories (卡路里) quickly. They have a more active lifestyle than cold-blooded animals. While cold-blooded animals such as snakes do not control their body temperature. Instead, they must use sunlight to keep warm, and they move much more slowly. Cold-blooded animals do not need to eat very much. Their bodies slow down in colder temperatures.‎ Besides dinosaurs, there are other animals that are not completely warm-blooded or cold-blooded, such as great white sharks.‎ ‎29．According to the new study, ______.‎ A. dinosaurs were cold-blooded B. dinosaurs were warm-blooded C. dinosaurs were not completely warm-blooded or cold-blooded D. some dinosaurs were warm-blooded and some were cold-blooded ‎30．The underlined sentence in Paragraph 2 means that ______.‎ A. it’s bad news to get the idea B. it’s good news to get the idea C. the idea is the same as what scientists predicted D. the idea is different from what people usually think ‎31．John M. Grady and his team studied many things about different kinds of dinosaurs EXCEPT their ______.‎ A. body size B. eating habit C. growth rate D. body temperature ‎32．Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage?‎ A. Great white sharks are cold-blooded.‎ B. Most of today’s animals are either warm or cold-blooded.‎ C. Cold-blooded animals move slowly in colder temperatures.‎ D. Dinosaurs’ body temperature didn’t only depend on the environment.‎ D You might think people all over the United States have Wi-Fi----wireless 12‎ ‎ Internet service---and mobile phones. But there is no such service in Green Bank, West Virginia, a tiny town four hours from the U. S. capital, Washington D. C. Fewer than 150 people live in Green Bank, which has two churches, an elementary school and a public library. It is also home to the largest radio telescope in the world.‎ There is a ban(禁令)on Wi-Fi in Green Bank, along with anything else that can crate electromagnetic(电磁的)waves. Officials say the waves could disturb the signals(信号)the telescope receives.‎ For many Americans, a visit to Green Bank is a little like returning to the 1950s. To get there, you must read road signs---because there is no GPS service in the town. People can connect with the Internet through telephones, but wireless service is not allowed.‎ The observatory(天文台)is one of the largest employers in the area. The federal National Science Foundation (NSF)spends about $8.2 million a year to operate the observatory, telescope and educational center.‎ Jonah Bauserman is a technician. If he supposes there is a signal that is not allowed in the zone, he drives to the house where the signal is coming from and checks it. but once a week, when the device is cleaned, come banned devices are allowed near it.‎ People in the town respect the work of the scientists. And they say they are happy to live without Wi-Fi and mobile phones. “You know, instead of sitting here on our phones and other devices we’re out fishing and hunting and going to each other’s houses.” Everyone knows each other and communication is almost always face-to-face.‎ ‎33．What will you are see when you pay a visit to Green Bank?‎ A. GPS service B. Guide posts C. Cell phone towers D. Radio-controlled toys ‎34．What has the telescope brought to the local people?‎ A. Great wealth B. Many job chances C. A healthier lifestyle D. Much difficulty in life ‎35．What may be the best title for this text?‎ 12‎ A. An American Town Without Wi-Fi and Mobile Phones B. Good Relationships Between people in an American Town C. The Largest Radio Telescope in the World D. A Better Life Without Wireless Devices 第二节、七选五（共10分）‎ Do you remember the last time you read a book, or a magazine? Is checking e-mails or updating microblog your daily reading habit? If you’re one of those who don’t make a habit of reading regularly, you might be really out. 36．‎ Stress Reduction No matter how much pressure you have at work, in your personal relationships, or other issues in daily life, it all just slips away when you lose yourself in a great story.37．‎ Knowledge Everything you read fills your head with new information, and you never know when it might come into use.38． Besides, you might lose everything else—your job, your money, even your health, but knowledge can never be taken from you.‎ Vocabulary Expansion ‎39． As a result, this will gradually enlarge your everyday vocabulary.
