What he could not have expected, however, was the group coming across the remains of a young Tyrannosaurus rex (霸王龙) that had lived millions of years ago.Fisher and the boys were surely excited by their discovery, but they didn’t know what to do with the fossil (化石). Fisher sent a photo to his former classmate, Dr. Lyson, an expert in the Denver Museum of Nature & Science. Then, Dr. Lyson arrived on the scene with a skilled team to dig up the fossil. Together, they unearthed the remains of the teenage Tyrannosaurus rex.Their find was considered as an “incredible discovery” by the Denver Museum of Nature & Science. It is unusual to find complete Tyrannosaurus rex fossils, and even more unusual to find the remains of a young one, so Dr. Lyson was excited when he realized what they had unearthed. The fossil, called “Teen Rex”, is between 12 and 14 years old at the time of death. Even though it was still growing, the dinosaur already weighed 3,500 pounds and was 25 feet long, though these impressive measurements still put it at about half the size of a fully developed Tyrannosaurus rex.“These boys have made an incredible dinosaur discovery that advances science and deepens our understanding of the natural world,” says Dr. Lyson. “I’m excited for museum guests to dig into the “Teen Rex Discovery” experience, which I think will inspire the imagination and wonder, not only in our community, but around the world!”The fossil will be on display as part of the temporary (临时的) Discovering Teen Rex exhibition, which will open at the Denver Museum of Nature & Science next month. In addition to the exhibition, the museum will also be screening a new 40-minute documentary T.REX.24. How did Sam Fisher feel when they found the fossil A. Amazed. B. Awkward. C. Satisfied. D. Alarmed.25. Why did Fisher send a photo of the fossil to Dr. Lyson A. To find a museum. B. To sell the fossil.C. To ask for help. D. To show off the fossil.26. What did Dr. Lyson think of the discovery A. He believed it was just another common find. B.He was uncertain about its significance.C. He thought it would attract little interest. D.He considered it of great value to science.27. What might the author continue to talk about A. A summary of the exhibition. B. Information on how to become an expert.C. Professional advice for museum guests. D.Details about the documentary.CNew scientific research has found that attending live sporting events enhances levels of wellbeing. Published in the journal Frontiers in Public Health, the research is the first large-sized study to examine the benefits of attending any type of live sporting event.It found that attending live sporting events results in higher scores of two major measurements of subjective wellbeing— life satisfaction and a sense of "life being worthwhile"—as well as lower levels of loneliness. These results are significant as previous studies have shown that higher life satisfaction scores are associated with fewer life-limiting conditions, better physical health and successful ageing.The new study also found that attending live sporting events leads to an increase in people's sense that “life is worthwhile,” and the size of this increase is comparable to that of gaining employment. Watching live sporting events can also offer an accessible and effective public health tool for improving wellbeing.Lead author Dr Helen Keyes, Head of the School of Psychology and Sport Science at Anglia Ruskin University (ARU), said: “Previous research has focused on certain sports or small population groups, such as college students in the United States. Ours is the first study to look at the benefits of attending any sporting event across an adult population, and therefore our findings could be useful for shaping future public health strategies, such as offering reduced ticket prices for certain groups.”The live events covered by the survey ranged from free amateur (业余的) events, such as watching village sports teams, right through to Premier League football matches. Therefore, further research needs to be carried out to see if these benefits are more pronounced for top level sport, or are more closely linked to supporting a specific team.However, without doubt, watching live sport of all types provides many opportunities for social interaction and this helps to shape group identity and belonging, which in turn boosts levels of wellbeing.28. What can we learn about the new study from the passage A. The study only covered Premier League football matches.B. Attending live sporting events increases life satisfaction and a sense of meaning.C. It is the first one to study the benefits of attending live sporting events.D. Watching live sporting events has little effect on one's wellbeing.29. What's Dr. Helen Keyes's attitude to the study A. Objective B. Positive C. Negative D.Neutral30. What does the underlined word "pronounced" in paragraph 5 mean A. Suitable B.Important C. Powerful D. Noticeable31. What is the best title for the passage A. A Research on the Popularity of Live Sporting EventsB. Watching Live Sporting Events Has Many BenefitsC. Attending Live Sport Improves WellbeingD. A Study on the Effects of Sporting Events on Physical HealthDIf you don't use it, you lose it. At least, that's how the old saying goes. It refers to the idea that something that does not get used regularly quickly falls into a state of decline. For example, a hobby that you haven't done for a few years, like playing the piano. The next time you pick it up, maybe you've forgotten altogether! In order to prevent this, people take regular exercise to keep their skills sharp.Well, what about the brain As we age, our brains can naturally begin to decline (衰退). In some cases, this can lead to certain mental conditions such as dementia (痴呆). However, all is not lost because these days it's relatively easy to train your brain. Smartphones and apps have put programmes that can test, keep and even improve our memories and a number of other mental abilities. With a little practice every day, we can keep our brains sharp right?Well, no, actually. According to a report from the Global Council on Brain Health, even though many people think it is beneficial to play some online games that are designed to improve brain health, the evidence of the benefits is “weak to non-existent”. Playing a “brain game” may lead to improvements in game performance, but this has yet to show a convincing result in people's daily cognitive abilities.Don't lose heart, though. There are other ways to develop the brain. It recommends trying new activities that challenge the way you think and are socially engaging, while leading to a healthy lifestyle. Among their suggestions are practising tai chi, taking photography classes, learning new technologies, gardening, art projects or volunteering.There's more good news, too. James Goodwin, chief scientist at Age UK, has said that brain decline is not unavoidable. As long as the activities are “new to you and require your concentrated attention”, they can provide benefits for brain health. So, hurry up, get out there and try something new. Maybe it's time to try that hobby you've always wanted to do.32. Why is playing the piano mentioned in paragraph 1 A. To introduce the topic of brain decline. B. To show the importance of regular exercise.C. To explain how to keep physically healthy. D. To illustrate the meaning of an old saying.33. What can we infer about the effectiveness of playing online brain games from paragraph 3 A. The benefits are not obvious in terms of daily cognitive abilities.B. The evidence of the benefits is weak to non-existent.C. Strong and continuous benefits have been proved.D. Both game performance and cognitive functions are greatly improved.34. According to James Goodwin, which of the following does NOT help prevent brain decline A.Participating in a photography course that challenges one's creative skills.B. Learning a new musical instrument that requires concentration.C. Playing a familiar game that does not demand much thought.D. Taking part in a new cooking class that teaches techniques unknown before.35. What is the main idea of the text A. Engaging in new and challenging activities can benefit brain healthB. Online brain games can improve people's cognitive abilities.C. Brain decline is natural and unavoidable as people age.D. Regular exercise and healthy lifestyle are key to keeping the brain healthy.第二节 (共 5 小题; 每小题 2.5 分,满分 12.5 分)阅读下面短文,从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。One of the most important elements of successful job hunting is the job interview. 36 In order to give yourself an edge over others applying for the job you want, it is important to create a solid impression during the job interview.Because what you say during an interview is so important, there are two rules to remember. One is to present yourself in a favourable way and stress your areas of excellence. However, don’t exaggerate (夸张); tell the truth. 37 Notice the interviewer’s interests and relate your comments to them.38 Don’t be afraid to ask for a second interview if you need time to gather information that will be more useful in the second interview. Most interviewers will appreciate your questions and your ability to listen and respond.Each of us has sensitive areas, which could refer to your lack of an academic degree, a long period of unemployment, or lack of work experience if you are entering a new field. 39 If you believe that this area presents a real barrier to a job offer, you could be communicating this doubt to the interviewer. Many times, however, an interviewer will ignore these sensitive areas if you have a confident, positive attitude.The job interview is an important part of the job search because the attitude and impression you project can make the interviewer feel “with you” or “against you”. 40 Interviewers have the intelligence to recognize genuine enthusiasm and interest.A. Answer sensitive questions briefly and positively.B. Show confidence in yourself and your ability to do the job.C. Some people lose job opportunities because of talking too much.D. Remember that you have the power to create a favourable impression.E.If unsure of job requirements, ask questions to see if you're qualified.F. There are thousands of people entering new careers and searching for jobs.G. Second, listen carefully and get involved in what the interviewer is saying.第三部分 语言运用 (共两节,满分55分)第一节(共15小题;每小题1分,满分15分)阅读下面短文,从短文后各题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中,选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。When I was young, I liked writing.
