Still waiting for your letter to arrive by owl (猫头鹰) Don't worry. You can still lose yourself in the magical world of Harry Potter,just by following this four-day route.
Day 1 Overview Edinburgh
It was in Scotland's capital city that J.K. Rowling started to plot the adventures of Harry and his fellows. With stoned streets，winding alleys (小巷) and medieval(中世纪的) architecture,the city certainly has a few things in common with the settings from the books and films. She wrote the early chapters in various cafes around the city's Old Towns.
Day 2 Overview travel to Fort William
Travel by train from Edinburgh to Glasgow and from there, and you can take the West Highland Line to Fort William. This is a great way to see some famous spots from the window, including the mysterious Rannoch Moor,the place where Death Eaters board the train in the movie Harry Potter and The Deathly Hallows.
Day 3 Overview all aboard the Hogwarts express
Witness the sweeping cinematic scenery straight out of the eight successful films by booking a seat on the Jacobite Steam Train, which travels from Fort William to Mallaig along the West Highland Line. Stop for lunch in Mallaig and then make the return journey to Fort William.Please be sure to book the steam train in advance, as it is a very popular experience. It opens for the season in April.
Day 4 Overview lakes and valleys
In the films，mysterious，misty landscapes frame (衬托)the background of Harry's tale，so it's no surprise that the producers chose the Highlands for many scenes. Spend a day wandering through some of these beautiful spots and feel the magical atmosphere.
1. Where did J.K.Rowling first start to create Harry Potter
A. In Mallaig. B. In Edinburgh.
C. In Glasgow. D. In Fort William.
2. What are you required to do if you want to take the steam train
A. Have lunch earlier than usual. B. Learn about the return ticket.
C. Make a reservation beforehand. D. Take a training course in April
3. On which day can you experience the producers' favorite settings
A. Day 1. B. Day 2. C. Day 3. D. Day 4.
B
Live with roommates Have friends and family around you Chances are that if you're looking to live a more sustainable lifestyle, not everyone around you will be ready to jump on that bandwagon.
I experienced this when I started switching to a zero waste lifestyle five years ago, as I was living with my parents, and I continue to experience this with my husband, as he is not completely zero waste like me. I've learned a few things along the way though, which I hope you'll find encouraging if you're doing your best to figure out how you can make the change in a not-always-supportive household.
Zero waste was a radical lifestyle movement a few years back. I remember showing my parents a video of Bea Johnson, sharing how cool I thought it would be to buy groceries with jars, and have so little trash! A few days later, I came back with my first jars of zero waste groceries, and my dad commented on how silly it was for me to carry jars everywhere. It came off as a bit discouraging.
Yet as the months of reducing waste continued, I did what I could that was within my own reach. I had my own bedroom, so I worked on removing things I didn't need. Since I had my own toiletries(洗漱用品), I was able to start personalising my routine to be more sustainable. I also offered to cook every so often, so I portioned out a bit of the cupboard for my own zero waste groceries. Perhaps your household won't entirely make the switch, but you may have some control over your own personal spaces to make the changes you desire.
As you make your lifestyle changes, you may find yourself wanting to speak up for yourself if others comment on what you're doing, which can turn itself into a whole household debate. If you have individuals who are not on board, your words probably won't do much and can often leave you feeling more discouraged.
So here is my advice: Lead by action.
4.What do the underlined words “jump on that bandwagon” mean in the first paragraph
A. Share an apartment with you. B. Join you in what you're doing.
C. Transform your way of living. D. Help you to make the decision.
5.What was the attitude of the author's father toward buying groceries with jars
A.He disapproved of it. B. He was favorable to it.
C. He was tolerant of it. D. He didn't care about it.
6.What can we infer about the author
A.She is quite good at cooking. B. She respects others' privacy.
C. She enjoys being a housewife. D. She is a determined person.
7.What is the text mainly about
A.How to get on well with other family members.
B.How to have one's own personal space at home.
C.How to live a zero waste lifestyle in a household.
D.How to control the budget when buying groceries.
C
Over the last seven years, most states have banned texting by drivers, and public service campaigns have tried a wide range of methods to persuade people to put down their phones when they are behind the wheel.
Yet the problem, by just about any measure, appears to be getting worse. Americans are still texting while driving, as well as using social networks and taking photos. Road accidents, which had fallen for years, are now rising sharply.
That is partly because people are driving more, but Mark Rosekind, the chief of the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, said distracted (分心) driving was "only increasing, unfortunately."
"Big change requires big ideas." he said in a speech last month, referring broadly to the need to improve road safety. So to try to change a distinctly modern behavior, lawmakers and public health experts are reaching back to an old approach: They want to treat distracted driving like drunk driving.
An idea from lawmakers in New York is to give police officers a new device called the Textalyzer. It would work like this: An officer arriving at the scene of a crash could ask for the phones of the drivers and use the Textalyzer to check in the operating system for recent activity. The technology could determine whether a driver had just texted, emailed or done anything else that is not allowed under New York's hands-free driving laws.
"We need something on the books that can change people's behavior,” said Félix W. Ortiz, who pushed for the state's 2001 ban on hand-held devices by drivers. If the Textalyzer bill becomes law, he said, "people are going to be more afraid to put their hands on the cell phone."
8.Which of the following best describes the ban on drivers' texting in the US
A. Ineffective. B. Unnecessary. C. Inconsistent. D. Unfair.
9. What can the Textalyzer help a police officer find out
A. Where a driver came from. B. Whether a driver used their phone.
C. How fast a driver was going. D. When a driver arrived at the scene.
10. What does the underlined word "something" in the last paragraph refer to
A. Advice. B. Data. C. Tests. D. Laws.
11. What is a suitable title for the text
A. To Drive or Not to Drive Think Before You Start
B. Texting and Driving Watch Out for the Textalyzer
C. New York Banning Hand-Held Devices by Drivers
D. The Next Generation Cell Phone: The Textalyzer
D
According to the Solar Energy Industry Association, the number of solar panels installed (安装) has grown rapidly in the past decade, and it has to grow even faster to meet climate goals. But all of that growth will take up a lot of space, and though more and more people accept the concept of solar energy, few like large solar panels to be installed near them.
Solar developers want to put up panels as quickly and cheaply as possible, so they haven't given much thought to what they put under them. Often, they'll end up filling the area with small stones and using chemicals to control weeds. The result is that many communities, especially in farming regions, see solar farms as destroyers of the soil.
“Solar projects need to be good neighbors,” says Jordan Macknick, the head of the Innovative Site Preparation and Impact Reductions on the Environment (InSPIRE) project. “They need to be protectors of the land and contribute to the agricultural economy.” InSPIRE is investigating practical approaches to “low-impact” solar development, which focuses on establishing and operating solar farms in a way that is kinder to the land. One of the easiest low-impact solar strategies is providing habitat for pollinators (传粉昆虫).
Habitat loss, pesticide use, and climate change have caused dramatic declines in pollinator populations over the past couple of decades, which has damaged the U.S. agricultural economy. Over 28 states have passed laws related to pollinator habitat protection and pesticide use. Conservation organizations put out pollinator-friendliness guidelines for home gardens, businesses, schools, cities - and now there are guidelines for solar farms.
Over the past few years, many solar farm developers have transformed the space under their solar panels into a shelter for various kinds of pollinators, resulting in soil improvement and carbon reduction. “These pollinator-friendly solar farms can have a valuable impact on everything that's going on in the landscape,” says Macknick.
12.What do solar developers often ignore
A.The decline in the demand for solar energy.
B.The negative impact of installing solar panels.
C.The rising labor cost of building solar farms.
D.The most recent advances in solar technology.
13.What does InSPIRE aim to do
A.Improve the productivity of local farms.
B.Invent new methods for controlling weeds.
C.Make solar projects environmentally friendly.
D.Promote the use of solar energy in rural areas.
14.What is the purpose of the laws mentioned in paragraph4
A.To conserve pollinators. B. To restrict solar development.
C.To diversify the economy. D. To ensure the supply of energy.
15.Which of the following is the best title for the text
A.Pollinators: To Leave or to Stay B. Solar Energy: Hope for the Future
C.InSPIRE: A Leader in Agriculture D. Solar Farms: A New Development

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。
If you’re determined to rise with the sun— or simply catch more of the morning—know that transitioning to a new schedule requires time and effort. Sleep experts suggest these strategies:
1. Seek out as much natural light as possible
16.______, Martin stresses. That’s because light suppresses melatonin, a hormone that plays an important role in circadian rhythm. “The sun is the driver of our internal clock, ” she says. “I want the light coming in and helping them wake up.”
17.______
For some people — like those who need to drive long distances — those first few days of exhaustion from switching to a new schedule aren’t safe. In that case, Martin recommends gradually easing into the early-bird life. “What I’ll suggest to people is to shift half an hour, wait a few days, shift another half an hour, wait a few days, and then shift another half an hour,”she says. “That’s a little easier for people to tolerate.”
3. Be consistent—even on weekends.
Becoming a morning person is a seven-day-a-week job. Decide what time you’re going to wake up every day, and stick to it, without exception. “If someone says, ‘I want to be more of a morning person during the week, but I want to sleep in on the weekends, ’18.________” Gehrman says.
4. Wind down in the evenings.
A consistent bedtime isn’t as crucial as sticking to the same wake up time every day, Gehrman says, 19.__________. Most people should aim for at least seven hours a night — so you’ll probably need to inch your bedtime forward as you transition to a new schedule.
At last, if you want to ensure you fall asleep quickly, 20.________. A 300-microgram dose about three to four hours before you plan to go to bed will help you start to feel sleepy, she says.
A.Ease in gradually. B.Do not give up easily. C. you should think twice. D.but it’s still important to make sure you’re getting enough sleep. E.that’s not going to work. F.The secret to becoming a morning person is exposure to bright light. G. Blair suggests trying small amounts of melatonin.

It was summer and my dad wanted to treat me to a vacation like never before. He decided to take me on a trip to the Wild West.
We took a plane to Albuquerque, a big city in the state of New Mexico. We reached Albuquerque in the late afternoon. Uncle Paul, my dad's friend, picked us up from the airport and drove us up to his farm in Pecos.
His wife Tina cooked us a delicious dinner and we got to know his sons Ryan and Kyle. My dad and I spent the night in the guestroom of the farm house listening to the frogs and water rolling down the river nearby. Very early in the morning,Uncle Paul woke us up to have breakfast. “The day starts at dawn on my farm”he said. After breakfast. I went to help Aunt Tina feed the chickens,while my dad went with Uncle Paul to take the sheep out to graze(吃草). I was impressed to see my dad and Uncle Paul riding horses. They looked really cool.
In the afternoon,I asked Uncle Paul if I could take a horse ride,and he said yes,as long as my dad went with me. I wasn't going to take a horse ride by myself anyway.So my dad and I put on our new cowboy hats, got on our horses,and headed slowly towards the mountains. “Don't be late for supper, ”Uncle Paul cried,“and keep to the track so that you don't get lost!” “OK! ”my dad cried back. After a while Uncle Paul and his farm house were out of sight. It was so peaceful and quiet and the colors of the brown rocks, the deep green pine trees, and the late afternoon sun mixed to create a magic scene.

这是一篇说明文，主要讲述了图书馆的现状和重要意义。
【解析】
36．考查连词。句意：图书馆在学习中扮演着重要的角色，图书馆员和其他资源帮助人们获取他们需要的信息。前后是并列关系，所以用and连接，故填and。
37．考查动词不定式。句意：因为互联网比图书馆目录更难分类，有充分的理由表明，图书馆的核心服务实际上正变得越来越重要。此处为"形容词+动词不定式"结构，故填to sort。
38．考查副词。句意：首先，图书馆保存历史，更重要的是保存真相。单独使用，所以用副词，故填importantly。
39．考查动词时态。句意：尽管在过去的两千年里发生了许多变化，图书馆的主要目的仍然是确保提供真相。根据时间状语in the past 2，000 years，可知用现在完成时态，故填have occurred。
40．考查介词。句意：尽管在过去的两千年里发生了许多变化，图书馆的主要目的仍然是确保提供真相。be certain of"确保"，为固定搭配，故填of。

43．考查过去分词。句意：综上所述，图书馆在社会中起着重要作用。All things（8）（consider），libraries play a fundamental role in a society.逗号前后没有连接词，所以前面不应该是句子，consider和逻辑主语all things之间是被动关系，所以用过去分词的独立主格结构作状语，故填considered。
44．考查形容词。句意：因此，人们对图书馆的需求不太可能很快改变，图书馆作为共享的、以社区为中心的空间，帮助他们找到信息并与他人联系。作定语修饰spaces，所以用形容词，故填shared。

Suddenly a little rabbit jumped out in front of my horse.It resembled a fury ball with eyes shining like sapphires.So frightened was my horse that it ran wildly off.I held more tightly the reins fastened to the horse，struggling to keep it under control.Fortunately，minutes later，the horse stopped before a river but both the horse and I were out of breath and exhausted.Right at that moment，I heard the steps of another horse approaching from afar.It was my dad，who sighed with relief after seeing me safe and sound.But it was obvious that we got lost！
Paragraph 2：We had no idea where we were and it was getting dark.
We had no idea where we were and it got dark.We also had no idea how to return to the farm house.Suddenly it occurred to us that we could keep to the track to guide us back.But it was getting darker and darker，thus making it increasingly difficult for us to make out the road.Therefore，we had to lead the horse，bend down and clearly spot the track step by step.It was more than half an hour later that we finally saw some light ahead of us！It was from the farm house！
