A team of students in the Netherlands has designed and built a new car that is completely powered by the sun. The car, called Stella Terra, is the first solar-powered car that can travel for a long journey without needing a charging station (充电站).
Students at Eindhoven University of Technology in the Netherlands have been working on solar-powered cars for years. In order to create a car that the team was planning for, the students had to design the car from top to bottom.
On top, of course, are the solar panels (太阳能板). Most solar panels are only about 20％ efficient (效率高的). That means they waste about 80％ of the sunlight they get. But the Stella Terra's solar panels are 26％ efficient. They waste far less sunlight than even the best solar panels you can buy. Thanks to its powerful solar panels, when it's sunny, the car can run for 710 kilometers a day. Stella Terra can carry two people, and has a top speed of 145 kph. The car weighs just 1,200 kilograms. That's about two-thirds the weight of a typical car.
The team recently took the car on its biggest test—a challenging 1,000-kilometer test drive across Morocco. The car had to travel through forests as well as dry riverbeds. It had to drive across burning desert sands and climb up mountain roads. The car succeeded in doing all of this—and all without ever stopping at a charging station.
The team is very proud of their car, but they won't be worried if car companies start to copy their idea. In fact, they will share the idea before car companies are able to build a similar car.
24. What can we learn about the car
A. It can travel more freely. B. It's terribly expensive.
C. It has been out of style. D. It has come on the market.
25. What is paragraph 3 mainly about
A. The appearance of Stella Terra. B. The hardship the team suffered.
C. The members of the design team. D. The basic information on the car.
26. Why did the team drive the car across Morocco
A. To find more buyers. B. To test out its performances.
C. To improve their driving skills. D. To enjoy the amazing sight.
27. What does the team want to do concerning the idea
A. Keep it top secret. B. Put it into production.
C. Share it with car producers. D. Sell it to other students.
C
A three-year drought has left millions of people in Syria, Iraq and Iran with little water. A new study says it would not have happened without human-caused climate (气候) change.
The team looked at temperature and rainfall levels. And they compared what happened in the last three years to many different computer models of the conditions in a world without human-caused climate change. They concluded that without the world warming 1.2℃ since the mid-19th century, there would not be such a serious drought at all.
"Human-caused climate change is already making life extremely hard for tens of millions of people in West Asia," said study co-writer Mohammed Rahimi. "With every degree of warming, Syria, Iraq and Iran will become even harder places to live.
Computer models did not find any considerable signs of climate change in the low rainfall, Otto said. But evaporation (蒸发) of water in lakes, rivers, and wetlands was much higher than it would have been without climate change-increased temperatures. The study writers found that the drought conditions in Syria and Iraq are 25 times more likely because of climate change, and in Iran, 16 times more likely.
"Drought is not unusual to the Middle East area. But fights make the area even more likely to have a drought because they have weakened water systems," said study co-writer Rana El Hajj. "This is already touching the limits of what some people are able to stand. As long as we keep burning fuels that affect climate change and continue to explore new oil and gas fields, these kinds of events will only get worse," she added. "This will continue to destroy lives and keep food prices high."
28. What caused the drought according to the study
A. Rising temperatures. B. Cold weather.
C. Loss of wetlands. D. Forest damage.
29. How does climate change affect the people in West Asia
A. They become wise. B. They explore more oil.
C. They are ready to help. D. They lead a hard life.
30. What is Rana's attitude to the situation in the area
A. Doubtful. B. Uncaring. C. Worried. D. Positive.
31. In which part of a newspaper may this text appear
A. Education. B. Technology. C. Health. D. Environment.
D
Your ears are already dark, wet and full of oils and dead skin—a delicious meal for many bacteria (细菌). It seems that wearing headphones could only make that environment more inviting to these bacteria.
Actually, a 2008 study at Manipal University in India found that frequent (频繁的) use of headphones did increase the population of bacteria in the ear—mostly the staphylococcus, a common skin bacterium. And in 1992, a study at the Navy Medical Research Institute in Bethesda, Maryland in the US, found that the kind of over-the-ear headphones used by airlines had 11 times more bacteria after having been worn for just one hour.
As unpleasant as this sounds, there is no need to worry about it. The headphones in the second study were clean before use, so began with a very low bacterial population and that increase resulted in a fairly low number in absolute terms.
Also, this increase was not fast enough to increase the reproduction of bacteria. The study's authors said that most of the bacteria must already have been present in the deeper skins. The dark warm conditions while wearing headphones just encouraged some of them to come out and play. Furthermore, there are no signs that these bacteria can cause any harm. A 2002 study of call centre workers in Malaysia found no connections between headphone use and the illness in the ear.
The bacteria that increase in your ear while you listen to music are the ones that live there normally, and your ear is able to deal with them. However, several studies have suggested that repeatedly putting on and taking off headphones may increase the risk of skin abrasions (擦伤) that allow harmful bacteria to get in and cause illnesses.
32. What does the underlined word "inviting" in the first paragraph mean
A. Equal. B. Attractive. C. Deadly. D. Confusing.
33. Why does the author mention the 2002 study
A. To support a view. B. To show a lifestyle.
C. To raise a question. D. To present a product.
34. What can be inferred from the last paragraph
A. Researchers haven't finished the studies.
B. Listening to music makes us less focused.
C. We can kill harmful bacteria completely.
D. Improper use of headphones harms health.
35. Which can be a suitable title for the text
A. Proper Ways to Get Free from Bacteria
B. Doctors Can Treat an Illness in the Ear
C. Concerns about Bacteria on Headphones
D. Causes of the Rising Number of Bacteria

I grew up in southeastern Michigan. I was a fan of Detroit Tigers, a famous baseball team, as a young boy.
My childhood dream was to be like my hero, Al Kaline, and someday play for the Tigers. My Dad would take me to Tiger Stadium several times a year and my hero Al Kaline would never let me down. We never attended a game that he didn't get at least one hit.
I was crazy about baseball. If there was a game in my high school, I was never absent. I kept practising so that I could achieve my dream of playing for the Tigers, and I was doing well at each level of play. Later, I got a chance to sign up for a strong American Legion baseball program. There I met our coach, Bob Ohm, who knew a lot of baseball and taught each of us the basics as well as more advanced baseball skills. With Bob Ohm's help and my hard work, I had set new records in many baseball championships.
My dream to be like my hero seemed to draw near. One summer, I went up to play the final season in Marinette. There were scouts who came to find the best players. This was it! My big chance!
Well, as the game progressed I hit the ball very well getting five hits in the game. Unfortunately, I also made four mistakes. The final mistake actually drew laughter from the crowd.
注意：1.续写词数应为150个左右；

(Text 6)
M: Good afternoon, how can I help you today

W: Exercise will help me keep my brain clear.
M: I'm not going to study, but I'm sure I'll still get better grades than you do!

M: Well, I can always study a whole night before a test.
W: That's a terrible way to study. If you do that, you won't really learn anything, and you'll be tired of the test! You need to get prepared one day before the test instead of studying until the last minute.
M: You're right.
(Text 10)
M: Hi there! My name's Peter Denison and I make my living by repairing old clocks and watches. I'm here to tell you about my work. Most people think my interest in clocks and watches must come from a family tradition. Actually, my father was a farmer who liked animals perhaps because my grandfather was a doctor for animals. But growing up, I was always fixing bikes and taking things like radios to bits. One day when I was 12, I took my parents' clock to bits and discovered the clock was actually beautifully made inside. After leaving school, I did a course about the art of designing clocks. I did well and went on to get a job in London afterwards. But I didn't like city life, so I decided to go home and set up my own workshop in the country. I began working in a corner of an old factory. Actually, I've spent my entire adult life working on my own in little rooms. I once worked in a wooden shelter in a small garden. Now my workplace is a little office behind a shop. For me, clocks are something which connects us to the past. I'm devoted to repairing things and keeping old things going. I often work with old clocks from the period between 1850 and 1950. The oldest one I've worked on was an Italian night clock dating from 1650.

第一节
One possible version:
City Sports Park Opens
Last Saturday, a sports park in the south of our city was officially opened to the public.
The park is not only a big park for people of different ages to play sports, but also a wonderland of nature and pleasure. With a wide variety of open spaces, it features high-quality and professional sports facilities, such as running tracks, basketball courts and tennis courts.
On that day, a great many people came and enjoyed themselves in the park. The park will hopefully serve as a wonderful escape from the busy city life.
第二节
One possible version:
After the game, I knew my dream of playing professional baseball was lost. I was crushed at the time about the loss of my dream. I talked with my coach Bob Ohm about my failure. He shared the way he became himself now and comforted, "There can be many kinds of dreams in life. As long as you never give up, you can have the chance to realize your dream. The key point is that you need to maximize your strengths and be who you really are." Thinking of my coach's words, I decided to continue to play and practise to achieve my next dream of being a baseball teacher in a school.
Today, I teach baseball in a high school. The relationships that I have enjoyed with the students and athletes through the years are things that no one can put a price tag on. Although my early dream to play baseball for the Tigers didn't come true, it created a new dream for me to be a teacher. I am proud of what I am doing because I can help the young go beyond their dreams with my most positive influence on them.
