Nieves left Puerto Rico when she was 18，after spending years feeling trapped on the island.She finished her education at University of Pennsylvania and Oxford.While living in the mainland United States，she realized that she didn’t have a sense of community.So she decided to return home，just a few months before Hurricane Maria made landfall.
After the worst of the hurricane was over，Nieves and her neighbors were in rough shape.Like most of the island’s towns and cities，there was no electricity，no running water，and no cell phone service.People in Mariana knew that because of their isolated location，it would take days for government aid to reach them，so they took matters into their own hands.
Nieves and her partner decided to start a community kitchen.They got permission to use an industrial kitchen space.Finding food and cooks was a little bit harder than they expected，at least at first.Immediately after the hurricane，it was difficult or impossible to call anyone，so they had to go door to door to contact people.Nieves ended up with a small team of local residents who had been hit hard by the storm，but still wanted to help.People contributed whatever they could，from beans to vegetables to bags of rice.Young people brought hot food to elderly neighbors.By the end of the week，the community kitchen was feeding 300 people every day.Even more importantly，everyone had a job to do.
Still，Nieves hopes that the lessons her community learned after Maria will help other towns in the future.“We believe that this is a model，or at least in some aspect，that every community needs to have if they’re going to munities are our best chance at adapting.Together we might be able to create more，” she said.

A．Her lack of a sense of community.
B．The hurricane in her hometown.
C．Her feeling of being trapped.
D．Her wish to get further education.
25．What did the people in Mariana do after Hurricane Maria

B．They delivered food door to door.
C．They donated all to help others.
D．They tried to help themselves.
26．Why did Nieves start the community kitchen
A．To raise money for local charities.
B．To set a model for community work.
C．To provide food for the needy.
D．To offer jobs for local people.
27．What lesson can we learn from Nieve’s words

Sea level is rising due to climate(气候) change，which threatens the future of millions of people around the world.Also，it threatens our cultural past.“It’s really the history of our species that’s at risk in a lot of ways，” says Meghan Howey，an archaeologist at the University of New Hampshire in Durham.Another archaeologist Anderson recently used online data(数据) to look at the dangers caused by rising seas to cultural sites in the south-eastern United States.He found a one-meter rise in sea level could destroy more than 13,000 of those places.
So how are we going to protect the important places Efforts to limit the worst impacts from climate change，including sea level rise，will require cutting greenhouse-gas emissions(排放) or maybe taking steps to limit flooding in important areas.Another approach might be to move cultural treasures.But projects like that are often very expensive.It’s unlikely that funds to do that will be available(可用的) for every site.And some treasures simply can’t be moved.
But high-tech tools might help preserve knowledge of those treasures before physical sites are lost，says Mark McCoy，an archaeologist at Southern Methodist University in Dallas，Texas.For example，scanning and imaging tools can help.LIDAR is a type of system that uses lasers to make exact 3-D scans of objects.High-resolution digital photography can make detailed puter technologies can also create 3-D virtual reality models.
Rising seas are likely to eventually bury a lot of archaeological treasures.And in some cases，the old techniques(技术) that archaeologists have long used may also help.“I still use traditional methods out on a site when the conditions call for it，” McCoy notes.For example，he says，“Paper and pencil do not require batteries and don’t break when I drop them on rocks.”
28．Why does the author mention two archaeologists in paragraph 1
A．To stress the risk to cultural sites.
B．To prove the value of online data.
C．To explain the reason of sea level rise.
D．To show the impact of climate change.
29．What does paragraph 3 mainly talk about
A．How to make exact 3-D scans of objects.
B．How to save the endangered cultural treasures.
C．Scanning and imaging tools can help save the treasures.
D．High-tech tools may play a part in preserving knowledge of the sites.
30．What’s McCoy’s attitude towards traditional methods
A．Objective. B．Doubtful.
C．Supportive. D．Puzzled.
31．Which of the following shows the structure of the whole text
(P：Paragraph)
D
Studies have shown that writing by hand can have enormous(极大的) beneficial impacts in terms of memory，brain development，and even the quality of writing itself.
Some might say that handwriting has become a dying art since the advent of the typewriter in the mid-1880s，even more so due to computers.In fact，nowadays，some schools in the United States no longer require teaching handwriting as a part of the main courses.However，despite the sense that writing on paper is out of fashion，it actually has a number of very important strengths.
Writing by hand is not only important for language processing and memory，but it is also important for mental development.In learning to write by hand，the human brain must combine feeling，movement control，and thinking.For whatever reason，it does not do so when learning to type.
Writing by hand is good for mental health，and there are some studies that can prove it.Writing on paper can help students recall material better than typing on a keyboard.Similarly，a study from 2014 shows that compared to writing by hand，taking notes on a laptop results in a less deep absorption of the learned material.This is because when using a laptop，students will often type out lectures word for word instead of processing information and rewording it in their own language.
These advantages actually translate to how you recall the information.In this case，writing by hand instead of typing also helps students do better on exams.Children write longer and more complex essays when they are writing by hand，compared with using a keyboard.Children usually do better writing with a pen when they write essays.They write more and faster.
The next time you want to sit down to write an email to a loved one，why not try writing a handwritten letter instead？It can be more beneficial to your brain.Plus，the personal touch of a handwritten letter can make your message even more special and memorable.
32．What does the underlined word “advent” in paragraph 2 mean
A．Rent. B．Request.
C．Alarm. D．Appearance.
33．What does paragraph 3 mainly tell us about handwriting
A．Its advantages. B．Its types.
C．Its development. D．Its requirements.
34．What happens when students use a laptop instead of a pen to take notes
A．They recall more words.
B．They do better in writing essays.
C．They are less confident about their exams.
D．They have a lower understanding of the material.
35．What is the author’s purpose in writing the last paragraph
A．To make a suggestion.
B．To express thanks.
C．To honour loved ones.
D．To share a personal experience.

阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。
As I walked towards the track，I glanced around me at the sea of faces in the stands，but my mind was focused.After I finished the six events of the heptathlon(七项全能)，the Olympic gold medal was just minutes away.
My heart was beating loudly，my mouth was dry and the adrenaline(肾上腺素) was pumping.I was so close to the realization of my childhood dream and the feeling was fantastic; it was completely exciting，but also terrifying.I knew I would have to push myself beyond my known limits to ensure that my dream came true.
I tried to keep calm，telling myself not to panic，to stick to the plan and to run my own race.I knew the Russian girls would set off quickly—and I had to finish this race fewer than ten seconds behind the Russian athlete Yelena Prokhorova.If I could do that，the gold medal would be mine.
I looked at the track and caught my breath.The 800m race stood between me and the gold medal.
The supporters were cheering so loudly that it seemed as if they were the only fans there.I could hear my name being called.I could hear the shouts of encouragement and the cries of hope.Flags fluttered all around the vast，beautiful stadium.I felt unified with the crowd—we all had the same vision and the same dream.
My ankle(脚踝) was bandaged against an injury I had got in the long jump just a couple of hours earlier，but I shut out all thoughts of pain.I just tried to concentrate on the crowd.Their cheers uplifted my spirits and I felt calm.
I knew I would do my best and that I would run my heart out and finish the race.I had just two laps to run，that was all.Just two laps and only two minutes，I kept telling myself，anyone could run for two minutes.
注意：续写词数应为150个左右。
The starting gun was fired，and the race began.
Prokhorova was running ahead of me.

M：On Thursday，I woke up feeling ill.I had a headache，and I felt really tired，although I went to bed early the night before.Because I also had a fever，my mom said I should stay at home.I was worried about missing school because I had an important science test that day.If it had been for math or English，I could have taken the test online，but I needed to be in the lab.Dad called my school and explained the situation，and，thankfully，my teacher said I could take the exam when I felt better.By lunchtime，I had developed a cough.So，together with Dad，I went to the hospital to do a medical test.It was unpleasant，but not too bad.I got the result the next day.Luckily! It was not very serious，but it was still a very bad cold.I was in bed for five days and didn’t return to school until the following Wednesday.Anyhow，I passed my science test!

Nieves left Puerto Rico when she was 18，after spending years feeling trapped on the island.She finished her education at University of Pennsylvania and Oxford.While living in the mainland United States，she realized that she didn’t have a sense of community.So she decided to return home，just a few months before Hurricane Maria made landfall.
After the worst of the hurricane was over，Nieves and her neighbors were in rough shape.Like most of the island’s towns and cities，there was no electricity，no running water，and no cell phone service.People in Mariana knew that because of their isolated location，it would take days for government aid to reach them，so they took matters into their own hands.
Nieves and her partner decided to start a community kitchen.They got permission to use an industrial kitchen space.Finding food and cooks was a little bit harder than they expected，at least at first.Immediately after the hurricane，it was difficult or impossible to call anyone，so they had to go door to door to contact people.Nieves ended up with a small team of local residents who had been hit hard by the storm，but still wanted to help.People contributed whatever they could，from beans to vegetables to bags of rice.Young people brought hot food to elderly neighbors.By the end of the week，the community kitchen was feeding 300 people every day.Even more importantly，everyone had a job to do.
Still，Nieves hopes that the lessons her community learned after Maria will help other towns in the future.“We believe that this is a model，or at least in some aspect，that every community needs to have if they’re going to munities are our best chance at adapting.Together we might be able to create more，” she said.

Sea level is rising due to climate(气候) change，which threatens the future of millions of people around the world.Also，it threatens our cultural past.“It’s really the history of our species that’s at risk in a lot of ways，” says Meghan Howey，an archaeologist at the University of New Hampshire in Durham.Another archaeologist Anderson recently used online data(数据) to look at the dangers caused by rising seas to cultural sites in the south-eastern United States.He found a one-meter rise in sea level could destroy more than 13,000 of those places.
So how are we going to protect the important places Efforts to limit the worst impacts from climate change，including sea level rise，will require cutting greenhouse-gas emissions(排放) or maybe taking steps to limit flooding in important areas.Another approach might be to move cultural treasures.But projects like that are often very expensive.It’s unlikely that funds to do that will be available(可用的) for every site.And some treasures simply can’t be moved.
But high-tech tools might help preserve knowledge of those treasures before physical sites are lost，says Mark McCoy，an archaeologist at Southern Methodist University in Dallas，Texas.For example，scanning and imaging tools can help.LIDAR is a type of system that uses lasers to make exact 3-D scans of objects.High-resolution digital photography can make detailed puter technologies can also create 3-D virtual reality models.
Rising seas are likely to eventually bury a lot of archaeological treasures.And in some cases，the old techniques(技术) that archaeologists have long used may also help.“I still use traditional methods out on a site when the conditions call for it，” McCoy notes.For example，he says，“Paper and pencil do not require batteries and don’t break when I drop them on rocks.”

Studies have shown that writing by hand can have enormous(极大的) beneficial impacts in terms of memory，brain development，and even the quality of writing itself.
Some might say that handwriting has become a dying art since the advent of the typewriter in the mid-1880s，even more so due to computers.In fact，nowadays，some schools in the United States no longer require teaching handwriting as a part of the main courses.However，despite the sense that writing on paper is out of fashion，it actually has a number of very important strengths.
Writing by hand is not only important for language processing and memory，but it is also important for mental development.In learning to write by hand，the human brain must combine feeling，movement control，and thinking.For whatever reason，it does not do so when learning to type.
Writing by hand is good for mental health，and there are some studies that can prove it.Writing on paper can help students recall material better than typing on a keyboard.Similarly，a study from 2014 shows that compared to writing by hand，taking notes on a laptop results in a less deep absorption of the learned material.This is because when using a laptop，students will often type out lectures word for word instead of processing information and rewording it in their own language.
These advantages actually translate to how you recall the information.In this case，writing by hand instead of typing also helps students do better on exams.Children write longer and more complex essays when they are writing by hand，compared with using a keyboard.Children usually do better writing with a pen when they write essays.They write more and faster.
The next time you want to sit down to write an email to a loved one，why not try writing a handwritten letter instead？It can be more beneficial to your brain.Plus，the personal touch of a handwritten letter can make your message even more special and memorable.
语篇解读　这是一篇说明文。文章阐述了手写相较于打字在记忆、大脑发育和写作质量方面的显著优势，并建议读者尝试手写以获得更多益处。
32．What does the underlined word “advent” in paragraph 2 mean
A．Rent. B．Request.
C．Alarm. D．Appearance.
答案　D
解析　词义猜测题。根据画线词下文“In fact，nowadays...as a part of the main courses.”可知，有人可能会说，自从19世纪80年代中期打字机出现以来，手写已经成为一种濒临消亡的艺术，而在电脑出现后更是如此。由此可知，此处想表达的是“自从打字机出现后，手写就不如以前流行了”，advent意为“出现”，与appearance的意思相近。故选D。
33．What does paragraph 3 mainly tell us about handwriting
A．Its advantages. B．Its types.
C．Its development. D．Its requirements.
答案　A
解析　段落大意题。根据第三段内容可知，手写不仅对语言处理和记忆很重要，而且对大脑发育也很重要。在学习手写的过程中，人类大脑必须将感觉、运动控制和思维结合起来。然而，出于某种原因，在学习打字时，大脑却无法做到这一点。故第三段主要讲述手写的优点。故选A。
34．What happens when students use a laptop instead of a pen to take notes
A．They recall more words.
B．They do better in writing essays.
C．They are less confident about their exams.
D．They have a lower understanding of the material.
答案　D
解析　细节理解题。根据第四段中“Similarly...results in a less deep absorption of the learned material.This is because when using a laptop，students will often type out lectures word for word instead of processing information and rewording it in their own language.”可知，学生用笔记本电脑记笔记会导致对所学材料的吸收不够深入，即他们对材料的理解较差。故选D。
35．What is the author’s purpose in writing the last paragraph
A．To make a suggestion.
B．To express thanks.
C．To honour loved ones.
D．To share a personal experience.
答案　A
解析　写作意图题。最后一段内容提到：下次你想坐下来给心爱的人写电子邮件时，为什么不试试写一封手写信呢？这对你的大脑更有益。此外，手写信件的个性化特质可以让你的信息更加特别和难忘。由此可推知，作者在最后一段建议读者尝试手写信件。故选A。

As I walked towards the track，I glanced around me at the sea of faces in the stands，but my mind was focused.After I finished the six events of the heptathlon(七项全能)，the Olympic gold medal was just minutes away.
My heart was beating loudly，my mouth was dry and the adrenaline(肾上腺素) was pumping.I was so close to the realization of my childhood dream and the feeling was fantastic; it was completely exciting，but also terrifying.I knew I would have to push myself beyond my known limits to ensure that my dream came true.
I tried to keep calm，telling myself not to panic，to stick to the plan and to run my own race.I knew the Russian girls would set off quickly—and I had to finish this race fewer than ten seconds behind the Russian athlete Yelena Prokhorova.If I could do that，the gold medal would be mine.
I looked at the track and caught my breath.The 800m race stood between me and the gold medal.
The supporters were cheering so loudly that it seemed as if they were the only fans there.I could hear my name being called.I could hear the shouts of encouragement and the cries of hope.Flags fluttered all around the vast，beautiful stadium.I felt unified with the crowd—we all had the same vision and the same dream.
My ankle(脚踝) was bandaged against an injury I had got in the long jump just a couple of hours earlier，but I shut out all thoughts of pain.I just tried to concentrate on the crowd.Their cheers uplifted my spirits and I felt calm.
I knew I would do my best and that I would run my heart out and finish the race.I had just two laps to run，that was all.Just two laps and only two minutes，I kept telling myself，anyone could run for two minutes.
注意：续写词数应为150个左右。
The starting gun was fired，and the race began.
Prokhorova was running ahead of me.

The starting gun was fired，and the race began.Prokhorova had taken the lead right from the start.I knew it was crucial not to let her build too big of a lead.As we heard the bell signaling the final lap，I was 2.3 seconds behind her.Just one lap to go! Determination surged through me as I pushed forward，believing I could do it.In the last 150 meters，the thunderous roar of the crowd provided a boost at exactly the moment I desperately needed it—just as my legs were burning and I saw the gap opening between me and the Russian.Thankfully，my foot was holding out.
Prokhorova was running ahead of me.I had to keep up with her.I started counting down the meters I had left：40m,20m,10m.I knew I could do it，but it would be a close finish.Then，finally，the finish line came into view.With the last ounce of strength，I crossed it，completely exhausted.I stood there，looking up and waiting for confirmation.And then，the moment that would stay with me for the rest of my life arrived—my name in lights.That was when it all hit me：relief，a moment of calm，and a silent gratitude to my inner self.I was the Olympic champion! I made it.
