In 1992, when Xi Jinping worked in Fuzhou, he came across a newspaper report about “My Guling,” written by a Chinese student studying in the United States.
The report described an American couple who tried in vain to revisit a southern Chinese town called Guling, where the husband, Milton Gardner, had spent 10 years of his childhood before moving back to the United States in 1911.
Gardner, who later became a professor of physics at the University of California, had been longing to revisit Guling since 1979 when the diplomatic ties between China and the US were set up. But he had never made the trip due to his failing health.
According to the newspaper, Gardner kept uttering (叨念) “Kuling, Kuling” in the final hours of his life.
After he passed away, his wife Elizabeth Gardner decided to carry out the dying wish of her husband and since then made several trips to China in an attempt to find the small town that her husband had so much affection about. Her efforts ended in vain as she had few clues (线索) about the exact spot of the town. But a Chinese student lodging (寄宿) at the Gardners’ recognized the small town as Guling near Fuzhou City from postmarks on some old mails of late Mr. Gardner. The student wrote an article about Gardners’ story and sent it to the People’s Daily, one of the major newspapers in China.
“After I read the story, I immediately contacted Mrs. Gardner through the departments concerned and invited her to visit Guling,” Xi told the media. Thanks to Xi’s arrangement, Mrs. Gardner finally arrived at Guling in August 1992. She met there with nine childhood friends of her husband, all of whom were over 90 years old at that time.
It was a happy occasion for Mrs. Gardner, who was later awarded the honorary citizenship of Fuzhou City, Xi recalled.
“She said that she would value this bond (纽带) of friendship between her husband and the people of China, because after seeing for herself the beautiful Guling and the warmth and goodwill of the Chinese people, she now understood why her husband had been so deeply attached to China.”
“I believe there are many such touching stories between our two peoples,” said Xi.
4. What can we infer from the passage
A. Mr. and Mrs. Gardner were brought up in a southern Chinese town.
B. The name of the town changed shortly after Milton Gardner left.
C. Guling might have originally been pronounced as Kuling in English.
D. Mrs. Gardner knew exactly where the small town lay in south China.

A. lived and worked in Guling for ten years
B. had few memories about the small Chinese town
C. kept in touch with his childhood playmates until he passed away
D. was deeply impressed by Guling’s people and environment

A. The help from newspapers.
B. Mrs. Gardner’s hard efforts.
C. Mr. Xi’s concern and arrangement.
D. The Chinese student’s letter to Mr.Xi.
7. From the passage we can learn that_____.

【导语】这是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述在习主席的关注和安排下Gardner夫人帮助其已故丈夫实现遗愿的感人故事
【4题详解】
推理判断题。根据第四段的“According to the newspaper, Gardner kept uttering (叨念) “Kuling, Kuling” in the final hours of his life.(据报纸报道，加德纳在生命的最后几个小时里一直在说“Kuling, Kuling”)”和第五段的“But a Chinese student lodging (寄宿) at the Gardners’ recognized the small town as Guling near Fuzhou City from postmarks on some old mails of late Mr. Gardner. (但是，一位住在加德纳家的中国学生从已故加德纳先生的一些旧邮件上的邮戳上认出这个小镇是福州市附近的Guling)”推知，在英语中，Guling最初可能在英语中发音为Kuling。故选C。
【5题详解】
细节理解题。根据倒数第二段中的“after seeing for herself the beautiful Guling and the warmth and goodwill of the Chinese people，she now understood why her husband had been so deeply attached to China.(在亲眼目睹了美丽的以及Guling中国人民的热情和善意之后，她现在明白了为什么她的丈夫对中国如此依恋)”可知，淳朴善良的人们和优美的环境给Gardner先生留下了深刻的印象，所以他一直难以忘怀。故选D。
【6题详解】
推理判断题。根据倒数第四段““After I read the story, I immediately contacted Mrs. Gardner through the departments concerned and invited her to visit Guling,” Xi told the media. Thanks to Xi’s arrangement, Mrs. Gardner finally arrived at Guling in August 1992. She met there with nine childhood friends of her husband, all of whom were over 90 years old at that time.(习近平主席在接受媒体采访时说：“看完报道后，我立即通过有关部门与加德纳夫人取得联系，并邀请她去Guling看望她。”在习主席的安排下，加德纳夫人终于于1992年8月抵达Guling，在那里会见了当时90多岁的丈夫的9位儿时朋友)”推知，习近平当年对这件事的关注和安排Gardner夫人到Guling对实现Gardner先生的遗愿起到了最重要的作用。故选C。
【7题详解】
推理判断题。通读全文并结合最后一段““I believe there are many such touching stories between our two peoples,” said Xi.(习主席说：“我相信我们两国人民之间有很多这样感人的故事。”)”可知，Gardner夫人帮助其已故丈夫实现遗愿的过程虽然曲折，但非常感人，其结果也很令人欣慰。故选A。
C
The federal school lunch program for 30 million low-income children was created more than half a century ago to combat malnutrition(营养不良). A breakfast program was added during the 1960s, and both attempted to improve the nutritional value of food served at school.
More must be done to fight the childhood obesity epidemic(流行的), which has caused a frightening peak in weight-related disorders like diabetes, high-blood pressure and heart disease among young people. The place to start is schools, where junk food sold outside the federal meals program—through snack bars and vending machines—has pretty much canceled out the benefits of all those efforts.
Federal rules that govern the sales of these harmful foods at school are limited and have not been updated for nearly 40 years. Until new regulations are written, children who are served healthy meals in the school cafeteria will continue to buy candy drinks and high sodium(钠) snacks elsewhere in school.
Many states’ school districts have taken positive steps, but others are likely to resist, especially districts that sell junk food to finance athletic program extracurricular activities, and even copier expenses.
Those districts should take note of a study released in 2009 in West Virginia showing that the budgetary costs of switching from sodas to healthy drinks such as fruit juice, milk, and water were very little. Even if the switch costs money, so be it. The school should not be trading their students’ health to buy office supplies.
Over the last 50 years, the obesity rates for adolescents have tripled. Unless there is decisive action, weight and inactivity-related disorders will bother a steady larger proportion of the work force and replace smoking as the leading cause of premature death.
8. According to this passage, ______ are to blame for the childhood obesity.
A. weight-related disorders
B. high calorie snacks
C. parents’ bad habits
D. unhealthy lunches and breakfast
9. Which is the main idea of Paragraph 3
A. Federal governments deserve high praise for their school lunch program.
B. New regulations are badly in need of updating.
C. Children should be forbidden to buy snacks in school.
D. Federal rules encourage snacks outside the school program
10. The passage is concerned mainly with ______.
A. Malnutrition in low-income children
B. The federal school lunch program
C. obesity at school
D. the nutritional value of food served at schoo
11. The tone of the passage is ______.
A. negative B. indifferent C. ironic D. positive
【答案】8. B 9. B 10. C 11. A
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文，叙述了开始于学校的儿童肥胖疫情，已在体重相关的疾病如糖尿病等疾病中引起可怕的高峰，虽然许多政府学校已采取积极措施，但可能受到阻碍，改善儿童肥胖疫情的前景并不乐观。
【8题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章第二段“More must be done to fight the childhood obesity epidemic(流行的), which has caused a frightening peak in weight-related disorders like diabetes, high-blood pressure and heart disease among young people. The place to start is schools, where junk food sold outside the federal meals program—through snack bars and vending machines—has pretty much canceled out the benefits of all those efforts.(必须做更多的工作来应对儿童肥胖的流行，这已经导致年轻人中糖尿病、高血压和心脏病等与体重相关的疾病达到可怕的高峰。开始的起点是学校，在联邦食品计划之外出售垃圾食品——通过小吃店和自动售货机——几乎抵消了所有这些努力的好处。)”可知高卡路里零食造成儿童肥胖。故选B。
【9题详解】
主旨大意题。根据文章第三段“Federal rules that govern the sales of these harmful foods at school are limited and have not been updated for nearly 40 years. Until new regulations are written, children who are served healthy meals in the school cafeteria will continue to buy candy drinks and high sodium(钠) snacks elsewhere in school.( 联邦规则里关于这些有害食品在学校的销售是有限的，但是已近40年没有更新。在新的规定出台之前，在学校食堂吃健康食品的孩子将继续在学校其他地方购买糖果饮料和高钠零食。)”可推测，本段讲述新的规章制度急需更新。故选B。
【10题详解】
主旨大意题。通读全文，以及最后一段“Over the last 50 years, the obesity rates for adolescents have tripled. Unless there is decisive action,weight and inactivity-related disorders will bother a steady larger proportion of the work force and replace smoking as the leading cause of premature death.( 在过去50年里，青少年的肥胖率增加了两倍。除非有决定性的行动，体重和不活动引起的疾病将困扰一个稳定的更大比例的劳动力，并取代吸烟作为过早死亡的主要原因)”可知文章主要在描述开始于学校的儿童肥胖，讲述了引起病症的原因和改善的方法以及并不乐观的未来前景。可知本文主要讲述学校肥胖问题。故选C。
【11题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章最后一段“Unless there is decisive action,weight and inactivity-related disorders will bother a steady larger proportion of the work force and replace smoking as the leading cause of premature death.(除非有决定性的行动，体重和不活动引起的疾病将困扰一个稳定的更大比例的劳动力，并取代吸烟作为过早死亡的主要原因)”可推测文章的语调是消极的。故选A。
D
Zero gravity looks cool. But what about the thing no one likes to talk about Yes, that is right: going to bathroom. Zero gravity makes this everyday task quite a challenge. Astronauts have to be toilet-trained all over again.
The Apollo astronauts raised themselves off the seat of their chairs and stuck a clear plastic bag to their back sides with sticky strips. A second astronaut watched closely to be sure no waste matter escaped the seal. (You would not want that stuff floating around the cabin!)When the deed was done, the astronaut cleaned up with a piece of plastic attached to the inside of the bag， removed the bag, dropped a disinfectant(消毒剂)pill in with the waste matter, and put the whole thing, sealed, into a special container.
Donald W. Rethke, an engineer for Hamilton Standard Space Systems, developed a more private way to answer nature's call: the space toilet. It is somewhat like the kind of toilet one would find on commercial airplanes - with unique adaptations for zero gravity, of course. For instance, it has thigh bars that keep the astronaut from floating off the seat.
The astronaut (male or female)defecates(排便)in a bag and urinates (排尿)in a hose(软管). Solid and liquid wastes are kept separated because at least 85％ of the urine is recycled and, yes, after careful filtration(过滤), used for drinking and other purposes.（Water is always in demand in space.) A vacuum sucks the waste materials into the toilet, where the waste is compacted into hamburger-like patties for easy storage. Although not exactly like an earthbound visit to the toilet, it is at the very least much more private than in the early days of space travel.
12. What can be turned into a major challenge for lack of gravity,according to Paragraph 1
A. Eating. B. Taking baths. C. Sleeping. D. Answering nature's call.
13. How did astronauts use toilet systems in the Apollo days
A. None of the waste was separated as it is now.
B. Solid waste was compressed and stored on board.
C. The toilet units used water to remove the waste through the system.
D. The astronauts each used their own private restroom.
14. To ensure the user remains seated, the toilet comes equipped with.
A. a plastic bag B. a sticky strip C. a wide hose D. a thigh bar
15. What can be inferred from the fact that most of the astronauts' urine is recycled
A. The recycled water tastes better.
B. Water is limited on the space shuttle.
C. It is very convenient to get their urine recycled.
D. Space science includes recycling urine.
【答案】12. D 13. A 14. D 15. B
【解析】
【分析】这是一篇说明文。文章介绍了宇航员在太空是如何入厕的。
【12题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段中“Zero gravity makes this everyday task quite a challenge. Astronauts have to be toilet-trained all over again. ”（在零重力的环境下，这项日常任务相当具有挑战性。宇航员必须重新接受厕所训练）可知，失重的主要挑战是上厕所，故选D。
【13题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中““When the deed was done, the astronaut cleaned up with a piece of plastic attached to the inside of the bag， removed the bag, dropped a disinfectant(消毒剂)pill in with the waste matter, and put the whole thing, sealed, into a special container. （如厕完成后，宇航员用一块粘在袋子里的塑料进行清理，取出袋子，将一颗消毒药丸和排泄物一起扔进袋子里，然后将整个东西密封在一个特殊的容器中）”可知，在阿波罗号上，宇航员使用厕所时排泄物没有进行分离，故选A。
【14题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段中“For instance, it has thigh bars that keep the astronaut from floating off the seat. ”（例如，它有防止宇航员从座位上飘起来的大腿条）可知，为了确保使用者能坐着，马桶配备了大腿条，故选D。
【15题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段“Solid and liquid wastes are kept separated because at least 85％ of the urine is recycled and, yes, after careful filtration（过滤）, used for drinking and other purposes.（Water is always in demand in space.) ”（固体和液体废物保持分离，因为至少85%的尿液回收,是的,经过仔细过滤,用于饮用和其他用途。(在太空中，水总是需要的)）可推知，航天飞机上的水是有限的，故选B。

In 1992, when Xi Jinping worked in Fuzhou, he came across a newspaper report about “My Guling,” written by a Chinese student studying in the United States.
The report described an American couple who tried in vain to revisit a southern Chinese town called Guling, where the husband, Milton Gardner, had spent 10 years of his childhood before moving back to the United States in 1911.
Gardner, who later became a professor of physics at the University of California, had been longing to revisit Guling since 1979 when the diplomatic ties between China and the US were set up. But he had never made the trip due to his failing health.
According to the newspaper, Gardner kept uttering (叨念) “Kuling, Kuling” in the final hours of his life.
After he passed away, his wife Elizabeth Gardner decided to carry out the dying wish of her husband and since then made several trips to China in an attempt to find the small town that her husband had so much affection about. Her efforts ended in vain as she had few clues (线索) about the exact spot of the town. But a Chinese student lodging (寄宿) at the Gardners’ recognized the small town as Guling near Fuzhou City from postmarks on some old mails of late Mr. Gardner. The student wrote an article about Gardners’ story and sent it to the People’s Daily, one of the major newspapers in China.
“After I read the story, I immediately contacted Mrs. Gardner through the departments concerned and invited her to visit Guling,” Xi told the media. Thanks to Xi’s arrangement, Mrs. Gardner finally arrived at Guling in August 1992. She met there with nine childhood friends of her husband, all of whom were over 90 years old at that time.
It was a happy occasion for Mrs. Gardner, who was later awarded the honorary citizenship of Fuzhou City, Xi recalled.
“She said that she would value this bond (纽带) of friendship between her husband and the people of China, because after seeing for herself the beautiful Guling and the warmth and goodwill of the Chinese people, she now understood why her husband had been so deeply attached to China.”
“I believe there are many such touching stories between our two peoples,” said Xi.
4. What can we infer from the passage
A. Mr. and Mrs. Gardner were brought up in a southern Chinese town.
B. The name of the town changed shortly after Milton Gardner left.
C. Guling might have originally been pronounced as Kuling in English.
D. Mrs. Gardner knew exactly where the small town lay in south China.
5. According to the passage, Mr. Gardner_________.
A. lived and worked in Guling for ten years
B. had few memories about the small Chinese town
C. kept in touch with his childhood playmates until he passed away
D. was deeply impressed by Guling’s people and environment
6. What played the most important part in making Milton Gardner’s wish come true
A. The help from newspapers.
B. Mrs. Gardner’s hard efforts.
C. Mr. Xi’s concern and arrangement.
D. The Chinese student’s letter to Mr.Xi.
7. From the passage we can learn that_____.
A. the Gardners’ story is a moving one with a happy ending
B. the Chinese student studying in the US must be from Fuzhou
C. the mails which became clues of Guling were sent by Gardner
D. the American couple revisited China trying to find Guling but in vain
C
The federal school lunch program for 30 million low-income children was created more than half a century ago to combat malnutrition(营养不良). A breakfast program was added during the 1960s, and both attempted to improve the nutritional value of food served at school.
More must be done to fight the childhood obesity epidemic(流行的), which has caused a frightening peak in weight-related disorders like diabetes, high-blood pressure and heart disease among young people. The place to start is schools, where junk food sold outside the federal meals program—through snack bars and vending machines—has pretty much canceled out the benefits of all those efforts.
Federal rules that govern the sales of these harmful foods at school are limited and have not been updated for nearly 40 years. Until new regulations are written, children who are served healthy meals in the school cafeteria will continue to buy candy drinks and high sodium(钠) snacks elsewhere in school.
Many states’ school districts have taken positive steps, but others are likely to resist, especially districts that sell junk food to finance athletic program extracurricular activities, and even copier expenses.
Those districts should take note of a study released in 2009 in West Virginia showing that the budgetary costs of switching from sodas to healthy drinks such as fruit juice, milk, and water were very little. Even if the switch costs money, so be it. The school should not be trading their students’ health to buy office supplies.
Over the last 50 years, the obesity rates for adolescents have tripled. Unless there is decisive action, weight and inactivity-related disorders will bother a steady larger proportion of the work force and replace smoking as the leading cause of premature death.
8. According to this passage, ______ are to blame for the childhood obesity.
A. weight-related disorders
B. high calorie snacks
C. parents’ bad habits
D. unhealthy lunches and breakfast
9. Which is the main idea of Paragraph 3
A. Federal governments deserve high praise for their school lunch program.
B. New regulations are badly in need of updating.
C. Children should be forbidden to buy snacks in school.
D. Federal rules encourage snacks outside the school program
10. The passage is concerned mainly with ______.
A. Malnutrition in low-income children
B. The federal school lunch program
C. obesity at school
D. the nutritional value of food served at schoo
11. The tone of the passage is ______.
A. negative B. indifferent C. ironic D. positive
D
Zero gravity looks cool. But what about the thing no one likes to talk about Yes, that is right: going to bathroom. Zero gravity makes this everyday task quite a challenge. Astronauts have to be toilet-trained all over again.
The Apollo astronauts raised themselves off the seat of their chairs and stuck a clear plastic bag to their back sides with sticky strips. A second astronaut watched closely to be sure no waste matter escaped the seal. (You would not want that stuff floating around the cabin!)When the deed was done, the astronaut cleaned up with a piece of plastic attached to the inside of the bag， removed the bag, dropped a disinfectant(消毒剂)pill in with the waste matter, and put the whole thing, sealed, into a special container.
Donald W. Rethke, an engineer for Hamilton Standard Space Systems, developed a more private way to answer nature's call: the space toilet. It is somewhat like the kind of toilet one would find on commercial airplanes - with unique adaptations for zero gravity, of course. For instance, it has thigh bars that keep the astronaut from floating off the seat.
The astronaut (male or female)defecates(排便)in a bag and urinates (排尿)in a hose(软管). Solid and liquid wastes are kept separated because at least 85％ of the urine is recycled and, yes, after careful filtration(过滤), used for drinking and other purposes.（Water is always in demand in space.) A vacuum sucks the waste materials into the toilet, where the waste is compacted into hamburger-like patties for easy storage. Although not exactly like an earthbound visit to the toilet, it is at the very least much more private than in the early days of space travel.
12. What can be turned into a major challenge for lack of gravity,according to Paragraph 1
A. Eating. B. Taking baths. C. Sleeping. D. Answering nature's call.
13. How did astronauts use toilet systems in the Apollo days
A. None of the waste was separated as it is now.
B. Solid waste was compressed and stored on board.
C. The toilet units used water to remove the waste through the system.
D. The astronauts each used their own private restroom.
14. To ensure the user remains seated, the toilet comes equipped with.
A. a plastic bag B. a sticky strip C. a wide hose D. a thigh bar
15. What can be inferred from the fact that most of the astronauts' urine is recycled
A. The recycled water tastes better.
B. Water is limited on the space shuttle.
C. It is very convenient to get their urine recycled.
D. Space science includes recycling urine.
