We thought of them a little bit like random number generators(生成器). They really didn’t seem to be providing anything that bore any relationship to heart rate.‎ Euan Ashley, a cardiologist(心脏病专家), studies wearables at Stanford University. He and his colleagues have now tested seven newer fitness bands, from brands like Apple, Fitbit and others and he says those heart rate statistics have gotten much better. "Yeah we were pleasantly surprised actually by how good the accuracy of the heart rate monitoring was."‎ For most of the devices, the error rate was less than 5%, which is good enough for your doctor. But where all the devices failed to measure up was estimating calories burned. Even the most accurate devices were off by 30%, compared to lab measurements of energy consumption. One device was off by more than 90%.‎ If you think about going to the gym and working out for an hour and maybe that’s around 400 calories, then in reality that could be anything from 200 to 800. And that’s a big difference if you’re thinking about somebody who’s incorporating those estimates into their lifestyle and particular thinking about what to eat that evening based on the workout they did that afternoon.‎ The results are in the Journal of Personalized Medicine. The reason for the discrepancy, Ashley ‎ says, could be that we all burn energy at different rates and that’s hard to calculate from simple input statistics like weight and height.‎ Some people are incredibly efficient and look incredibly elegant when they run. And others really clearly look like they’re burning a lot more calories to cover the same amount of ground. So if you own a wearable, it’s probably safe to trust the heart data. But what it can’t tell you is whether your time on the treadmill(跑步机) really justifies that chocolate bar.‎ ‎21．What does Euan Ashley say about the newer models of wearables?‎ A. They were all useless B. They were hardly effective C. They were too expensive D. They were mostly accurate ‎22．What can we learn from Paragraph 4 and Paragraph 5?‎ A. For measuring heart rates, most fitness bands are not reliable B. For measuring calories in exercise, most fitness bands are not reliable C. We can base our lifestyle and diet on advice from doctors D. We can base our lifestyle and diet on data from wearables ‎23．What is the author’s purpose in writing the text?‎ A. To remind readers to use fitness bands wisely B. To promote the sale of popular wearables C. To discuss the advantages of some popular wearables D. To introduce some famous-brand fitness bands For many people who live in cities, parks are an important landscape. They provide a place for people to relax and play sports, as well as a shelter from the often severe environment of a city. What people often overlook is that parks also provide considerable environmental benefits.‎ One benefit of parks is that plants absorb carbon dioxide and give off oxygen. According to one study, an acre of trees can absorb the same amount of carbon dioxide that a typical car emits in 11,000 miles of driving. Parks also make cities cooler. Scientists have long noted what is called the Urban Heat Island Effect: building materials such as metal and concrete (混凝土) absorb much more of the sun’s heat and release it much more quickly than trees and grass. Because city landscapes contain so much of these building materials, cities are usually warmer than surrounding rural areas. Parks and other green spaces help to lessen the Urban Heat Island ‎ Effect.‎ Unfortunately, many cities cannot easily create more parks. However, cities could benefit from many of the positive effects of parks by encouraging citizens to create another type of green space: rooftop gardens. While most people would not think of starting a garden on their roof, human beings have been planting gardens on rooftops for thousands of years. Some rooftop gardens are simple container gardens that anyone can create with the investment (投资) of a few hundred dollars and a few hours of work.‎ Rooftop gardens provide many of the same benefits as other urban parks and garden spaces, but without taking up the much-needed land. In the summer, rooftop gardens prevent buildings from absorbing heat from the sun, which can significantly reduce cooling bills. In the winter, gardens help control the heat that materials like brick and concrete release so quickly, leading to savings on heating bills. Rooftop vegetables and herb gardens can also provide fresh food for city settlers, making their diets healthier. Rooftop gardens are not only something everyone can enjoy but also a smart environmental investment.‎ ‎24．The underlined word “emits” in the second paragraph probably means _________.‎ A. takes up B. gives out C. carries away D. breathes in ‎25．Which of the following contributes to the Urban Heat Island Effect?‎ A. More rooftop gardens. B. More trees and grass.‎ C. More parking lots. D. More building materials.‎ ‎26．When it comes to rooftop gardens, what can be inferred from the passage?‎ A. They make people much happier.‎ B. They provide more benefits from urban parks.‎ C. They help to save money and keep a healthy diet.‎ D. They have become very popular in recent years.‎ ‎27．What’s the author’s attitude towards rooftop gardens?‎ A. Supportive. B. Doubtful.‎ C. Critical. D. Objective.‎ To a large degree,the measure of our peace of mind is determined by how much we are able to ‎ live in the present moment . In spite of what happened yesterday or last year,and what may or may not happen tomorrow,the present moment is where you are-always!‎ Without question,many of us have mastered the neurotic （神经兮兮的）art of spending much of our lives worrying about a variety of things-all at once.We allow past problems and future concerns to dominate our present moments,so much that we end up anxious,frustrated depressed,and hopeless.On the other hand,we also delay our happiness,often convincing ourselves that “someday” will be much better than today.Unfortunately,the same mental dynamics that tell us to look toward to the future will only repeat themselves so that “someday”never actually arrives.John Lennon once said,“Life is what is happening while we are busy making other plans.”When we are busy making“ other plans”, our children are busy growing up, the people we love are moving away and dying, our bodies are getting out of shape,and our dreams are slipping away.In short,we miss out on life.‎ Many people live as if life were dress rehearsal for some late date.It isn't.In fact,no one has a guarantee that he or she will be here tomorrow.Now is the only time we have,and the only time that we have any control over.When our attention is in the present moment,we push fear from our minds.Fear is the concern over events that might happen in the future-we won't have enough money,our children will get into trouble,we will get old and die,whatever.‎ To combat fear,the best strategy is to learn to bring your attention back to the present.Mark Twain said,“I have been through some terrible things in my life,some of which actually happened.”I don't think I can say it any better.Practice keeping your attention on here and now.Your efforts will pay off .‎ ‎28．In the first paragraph,the author tells us to focus on .‎ A. the past B. the future C. every day D. the present ‎29．Why do we often have some negative feelings?‎ A. Because we often forget what happened in the past.‎ B. Because we are often disturbed by what happened in the past and what will happen in the future.‎ C. Because we often pay attention to what is happening at present.‎ D. Because we often ignore what will happen in the future and what happened in the past.‎ ‎30．The underlined word in the last paragraph means .‎ A. depend B. deserve C. determine D. defeat ‎31．The best title of this passage is .‎ A. Always live in the present moment B. Never forget the past C. Never complain about life D. Always get prepared for the future How many girls in this world fall behind? The answer is hard—too many to count. This is why the phrase “Go Get It Girl” popped up in my head one day. This would be my project. Thus begins the journey of my Cold Award project, the largest and most important step of Girl Scouts (女童子军).‎ ‎“Go Get It Girl” is a girl’s self-empowerment (自我授权) project centered on a website called gogetitgirl.org. It focuses on areas including education, health, and financial literacy. The education section includes information on applying to college and, maintaining good grades. The health section contains information on basic health and self-respect. Lastly, the financial literacy section has all the information a girl needs to manage her money properly.‎ As part of my project, I was able to work one-on-one with girls in elementary, middle, and high school. I gave a speech at a local high school’s College Night. I spoke to Hispanic girls and their parents about applying to college. In addition, I worked with an organization called Cool Girls, Inc. Cool Girls is an organization focused on the advancement of girls in all aspects of their development. I worked at the afterschool program, Cool Girls Club. The girls I worked with were primarily minorities, and Cool Girls truly helps them to rise above any current difficulties in their lives.‎ To provide inspiration for the girls who visit gogetitgirl.org, I interviewed successful women in my community, including a doctor and business owner.‎ The project has been a lot of work, arid it’s not over yet. It will never be over, hopefully, because I will always look for ways to help girls.‎ ‎32．What does the underlined phrase “popped up” in Paragraph to) refer to?‎ A. took root. B. gained popularity. C. made its way. D. appeared all of a sudden.‎ ‎33．What does the writer mainly tell us in the first paragraph?‎ A. Why the writer started “Go Get It Girl’. B. Why many girls fall behind.‎ C. How Girl Scouts is founded. D. What Girl Scouts refers to.‎ ‎34．What can help a girl learn how to make both ends meet?‎ A. Education. B. Cool Girls Club. C. Financial literacy. D.

CCTV reporter Han Bin brings us one man’s story of how he lost three jobs due to his HIV-positive status.‎ ‎34-year-old Ma Zhifa found out he was HIV-positive two years ago, since when his whole life has changed. He lost everything: job, income, marriage and confidence to live.‎ Ma Zhifa hopes society can find enough tolerance to give him a chance to work. Now his only support come from his daughter, who’s been taken away by her mother. And without an income, he can’t provide for his child.‎ The official number of HIV/AIDS patients in China is around one million, less than one percent of the population. But across the country, discrimination is common in medical treatment, the workplace and at school.‎ Ma Zhifa is determined to live a positive life. He hopes his openness may help start better treatment for others with similar experiences of discrimination.‎ When China released legislation that outlaws (宣告非法) discrimination against people with HIV/AIDS in 2004, it showed the determination of the government to remove the stigma (耻辱).‎ ‎ Six years later, discrimination against people with HIV/AIDS was still widespread. Still, many believe that legal protection should be the base line for protecting those with HIV/AIDS, and should not give way to social prejudice.‎ ‎【写作内容】‎ ‎1 用约30个单词写出上文概要；‎ ‎2 阐述产生这一现象的原因；‎ ‎3 从个人角度谈谈为什么要反对歧视(不少于两点)。‎ ‎【写作要求】‎ ‎1 写作过程中不能直接引用原文语句；‎ ‎2 作文中不能出现真实姓名和学校名称；‎ ‎3 不必写标题。‎ ‎【评分标准】‎ 内容完整，语言规范，语篇连贯，词数适当。‎ 参考答案 第一部分 听力 ‎1 〜5: BBCAA 6〜10: ABABB ‎11〜15: ACBCC 16〜20: ACBBA ‎ ‎21．D ‎22．B ‎23．A ‎24．B ‎25．D ‎26．C ‎27．A ‎28．D ‎29．B ‎30．D ‎31．A ‎32．D ‎33．A ‎34．C ‎35．B ‎36．B ‎37．C ‎38．A ‎39．D ‎40．D ‎41．B ‎42．A ‎43．D ‎44．B ‎45．A ‎46．C ‎47．D ‎48．B ‎49．D ‎50．A ‎51．C ‎52．A ‎53．D ‎54．B ‎55．C ‎56．D ‎57．G ‎58．C ‎59．A ‎60．B ‎61．‎ ‎62．One Possible Version The passage conveys to us that HIV/AIDS patients in China have to face both the torment of HIV and social discrimination, the threat of unemployment as well as family and marriage breakdown.‎ Public ignorance about AIDS has led to the social discrimination against people with AIDS. AIDS means fear for most people, and they know little about AIDS. Though China has released legislation that outlaws discrimination against people with HIV/AIDS, discrimination against AIDS still exists everywhere.‎ In my opinion, the people with AIDS are the same with others, they should have the same rights. Second, they also need our love and understanding. So please give them a friendly smile.‎ I hope the government should send the right knowledge to the public. It is safe to eat and play with them. Second, the government should strengthen our law enforcement and protect their legitimate right.‎ Wish they can live a normal life!‎
