A few athletes were already stretching their arms, but most of us could barely focus. As I was burning off last night’s wrong decision—a big meal, I spotted a poster about a gym’s 21-day workout challenge, and I immediately signed up. I always wanted to train for a marathon, so I considered this as my warm-up. Besides, I needed to stop being lazy and this was my chance to make a change. It was easy to promise on paper, but three weeks of recommended exercise routines and diet restrictions wouldn’t be easy. I stuck to working out 30 minutes a day, and I didn’t disturb my normal routine. Instead, I had to be faced with the tough work of being more creative in my spare time, thus breaking some bad habits. Overcoming weaknesses with willpower was my goal for the next part of the journey. But the difficult part about making a challenge is realizing that “wanting” and “doing” are two very 3 different things. Just like a career, you have to physically work for it rather than just wait for it to happen. But that’s hard. Throughout the 21 days, I often told myself that the challenge was meaningless and tried to sabotage myself from exercising. However, finally I overcame that negative thought and kept working out. At the end of the challenge, I learned something even more important: Feeling the results is better than seeing them. I had fewer headaches and more energy, and was simply happier. I even felt a little smarter as I researched which foods were better for my body, and learned how to make healthier meals. I felt a sense of accomplishment, too, because even though I wanted to give up dozens of times, I didn’t. I felt my waist got smaller and my arms got stronger, and I no longer felt guilty after having a piece of cake or a drink. 24. What was the author’s wrong decision? A. Going to the gym early. B. Training for a marathon. C. Eating a lot the previous night. D. Stopping being lazy for a change. 25. What is paragraph 2 mainly about? A. Some of the author’s bad habits. B. Some ways of the author’s killing his spare time. C. The importance of sticking to the normal daily routine. D. The difficulty of the author’s keeping on with the workout plan. 26. What does the underlined word “sabotage” in paragraph 3 probably mean? A. Improve. B. Hear. C. Prevent. D. Distinguish. 27. What did the author learn from the workout challenge? A. Eating healthy food is more important than exercising. B. Overcoming a challenge could bring good feelings to him. C. It’s more important to see what he likes than just feel it. D. There was no need to feel guilty about things he disliked to do. C A new study shows that air pollution can cause a huge reduction in our intelligence. The study was a project involving researchers at Peking University in China and Yale University in the United States. The researchers reported that long-term exposure to air pollution can affect a person’s mental abilities in two areas: Language and math. 4 The researchers studied about 25,000 people from across China. Between 2010 and 2014, these Chinese men, women and children were given language and math tests. Then researchers compared the test results with measurements of pollution in the air, namely nitrogen dioxide and sulfur dioxide（二氧化硫）. Xi Chen of the Yale School of Public Health led the study. He and his team found that breathing polluted air can reduce a person’s education level by about one year. Chen said that the effect generally is worse for those over 64 years of age, for men and for those with little or no education. “The older persons—they are more affected. And we find, quite amazingly, males are more affected than females. And people working outdoors are more affected than people working indoors.” He noted that the youngest people in the study were 10 years old, while the oldest was 90 years old. They came from China’s 33 provinces. In his words, the data and facts are convincing and this range of ages and locations across the country provided a real, objective and representative sample. The researchers noted that the effect of air pollution on verbal ability is even more serious as people age, especially among men and the less educated. The researchers also stressed that every country, whether developed, developing or poor, should focus on air pollution or humans will face a bad situation. 28. What is the result of the study? A. Females are more affected by air pollution than males. B. Air pollution has a bad effect on people’s intelligence. C. Americans are more affected by air pollution than Chinese. D. People working indoors are actually not affected by air pollution. 29. What did Chen say about the study? A. It is doubtful. B. It is extremely unfair. C. It is common and not representative. D. It is relatively objective and persuasive. 30. What did the researchers emphasize in the last paragraph? A. The data from the 33 provinces is convincing. 5 B. The whole world should pay attention to air pollution. C. The less educated take more responsibility for air pollution. D. Air pollution’s influence on verbal ability is less serious as people age. 31. Where is the text most likely taken from? A. A life diary. B. A guidebook. C. A biography. D. A science magazine. D Stories are shared in many ways. They are described in books and magazines. They are read around the campfire at night. They are randomly distributed from stand-alone booths. But what else? To revive（复兴）literature in the era of fast news and smartphone addiction, Short Edition, a French publisher of short-form literature, has set up more than 30 story dispensers（分发机） in the USA in the past years to deliver fiction at the push of a button at restaurants, universities and government offices. Francis Ford Coppola, the film director and winemaker, liked the idea so much that he invested in the company and placed a dispenser at his Café Zoetrope in San Francisco. Last month public libraries in some other cities announced they would be setting them up, too. There is one on the campus at Penn State. A few can be found in downtown West Palm Beach, Fla. And Short Edition plans to announce more, including at the Los Angeles International Airport. “Everything old is new again,” said Andrew Nurkin, the director of the Free Library of Philadelphia, which is one of the libraries that set up the dispensers. “We want people to be easily exposed to literature. We want to advance literacy among children and inspire their creativity.” Here’s how a dispenser works: It has three buttons on top indicating choices for stories that can be read in one minute, three minutes or five minutes. When a button is pushed, a short story is printed. The stories are free. They are chosen from a computer category of more than 100,000 original submissions by writers whose works have been evaluated by Short Edition’s judges, and transmitted over a mobile network. Offerings can be tailored to specific interests, like children’s fiction or romance. Short Edition gets stories for its category by holding writing contests. Short Edition set up its first booth in 2016 and has 150 machines worldwide. “The idea is to make people happy,” said Kristan Leroy, director of Short Edition, “There is too much 6 unhappiness today. ” 32. What do we know about the stories sent by dispensers? A. They are expensive. B. They are short in form. C. They can be read on smartphones. D. They are mainly taken from magazine literature. 33. Where can you find the popularity of story dispensers in America? A. In paragraph 3. B. In paragraph 4. C. In paragraph 5. D. In paragraph 6. 34. Which is the main purpose of setting up the dispensers according to Andrew Nurkin? A. To make people have access to literature. B. To get rid of people’s smartphone addiction. C. To reduce the financial stress of libraries. D. To advertise the network literature. 35. What is the best title for the text? A. Online Reading: a Virtual Tour B. Short Edition, a French Publisher C. Everything Old Will Be Popular Again D. Taste of Literature, at the Push of a Button 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。 A science teacher’s job is teaching science to his students.

He may decide to work in a primary to teach a range of subjects, including science. 36 Some even choose to earn advanced degrees that allow them to work as college professors. 37 They may cover such basic science subjects as biology, chemistry, physics and earth science as well as a full range of other subjects. The subjects a science teacher covers may vary, depending on such factors as where he teaches and the age of the students he’s instructing. A person who wants to become a science teacher for primary-aged students may find it necessary to teach other subjects in addition to science. 38 In such classroom, one teacher may instruct students not only in science, but also math, history, language and other subjects. 7 At the high school level, science teachers usually have the opportunity to focus on their chosen subject. Typically, teachers at this level are required to earn bachelor’s degree in the subjects they want to teach in addition to teaching certifications. 39 College science teachers usually need more advanced degrees to secure their positions. Typically, a full-time science professor needs a doctoral degree in order to do so. 40 That is because colleges typically need teachers in basic and highly-specialized courses. A.
