10.-Sorry indeed,I________ to your birthday party if…
-Forget it.I know you were out on business.(  )
A.would have comeB.should comeC.could comeD.must have come

分析 --真的对不起,我本来可以回来参加你的生日的,如果…--算了吧!我知道你在出差.

解答 答案:A.根据I know you were out on business可知这里与过去事实相反,if后面省略了"I hadn't been out on business",所以主句应该用"would+have+done"虚拟语气,表示对过去事情的假设,意思是"本来可以做",故选A.

点评 本题考查的是虚拟语气.if引导的虚拟语气题,关键是要根据上下文语境,找时间状语或是看里面的关键词是对什么时间的虚拟,然后再按照规则来找答案.

14.The"melting pot"in American cuisine(菜肴.烹饪法) is a myth,not terribly unlike the idea of a melting pot of American culture,notes chef Dan Barber."Most cultures don't think about their cuisine in such monolithic(统一的) terms,"he says."French,Mexican,Chinese,and Italian cuisines each consist of dozens of distinct regional foods.And I think‘American'cuisine is moving in the same direction,becoming more localized,not globalized."
American cuisine is shaped by the natural wealth of the country.Having never faced agricultural hardship,Americans don't have to rely on rotating crops,such as the Japanese,whose food culture now showcases buckwheat (荞麦) alongside rice,or the Indians,or the French and Italians,who feature beans alongside wheat."That kind of negotiation with the land forced people to incorporate(接受) those crops in to the culture,"says Barber.And so eating soba noodles becomes part of what it means to be Japanese,and eating beans becomes part of what it means to be French.
So if what we eat is what we are,what are Americans?Well,meat."If Americans have any unifying food identity,I would say we are a mostly white meat culture,"says Barber."The protein-centric dinner plate,whether you're talking about a boneless chicken breast,or a 16-ounce steak,as an everyday expectation is something that America really created,and now exports to the rest of the world."
Every single culture and religion uses food as part of their celebrations,says Ellen Gustafson,co-founder of the FEED Project and The 30Project,which aims to deal with both hunger and overweight issues globally."The celebratory nature of food is universal.Every season,every harvest,and every holiday has its own food,and this is true in America as well.It helps define us."

1.The longer a teenager spends using electronic devices such as computers and smartphones,the worse their sleep will be,a study of nearly 10,00016-to 19-year-olds suggests.
More than two hours of screen time after school was strongly linked to both delayed and shorter sleep.Almost all the teens from Norway said they used the devices shortly before going to bed.Many said they often got less than five hours sleep a night.
The teens were asked questions about their sleep routine on weekdays and at weekends,as    well as how much screen time they clocked up outside school hours.On average,girls said they    spent around five and a half hours a day watching TV or using computers,smartphones or other    electronic devices.And boys spent slightly more time in front of a screen around six and a half hours a day,on average.Playing computer games was more popular among the boys,whereas girls were more likely to spend their time chatting online!
Any type of screen use during the day and in the hour before bedtime appeared to disturb    sleep-making it more difficult for teenagers to nod off.And the more hours they spent on these devices,the more disturbed their sleep became:When daytime screen use totalled four or more hours,teens had a 49%greater risk of taking longer than an hour to fall asleep.These teens also tended to get less than five hours of sleep per night.
Dr.Hysing said her findings had suggestions for the wider population as so many people  use these devices."We know that sufficient sleep is essential for good physical and mental health.Logging off may be one important step toward securing a good night's sleep."
Prof Rnssell Foster,an expert the University of Oxford,said,"This is an important study  as it provides practical evidence that the use of electronic devices before bed does indeed reduce sleep duration."He said teenagers should be warned of this.
28.What is stressed in the first two paragraphsB?
A.Teens now tend to have more problems with studies.
B.Teens get harder to fall asleep with more screen time.
C.Teens addicted to screen are likely to be more energetic.
D.Teens'sleep duration has nothing to do with their screen time.
29.By asking questions,the study findsC.
A.boys are more likely to chat online than girls
B.girls are more frequent on the screen than boys
C.teens are attracted by different electronic devices
D.teens use the screen for the same purpose

A.shut off    B.get excited    C.focus on  D.fall asleep
31.How does Prof Russell Foster feel the studyA?

5.There are two factors which determine an individual's intelligence.The first is sort of brain he is born with.Human brains differ considerable,some being more capable than others.But no matter how good a brain he has to begin with,an individual will have a low intelligence unless he has opportunities to learn.So the second factor is what happens to the individual-the sort of the environment in which he is brought up.If an individual is handicapped(受阻碍) environmentally,it is likely that his brain will stop to develop and he will never attain the level of intelligence of which he is capable.
The importance of environment in determining an individual's intelligence can be proved by the identical twins,Peter and John.When the twins were three months old,their parents died,and they were placed in separate foster(寄养) homes.Peter was reared by parents of low intelligence in an isolated community with poor educational opportunities.John,however,was educated in the home well-to-do parents who had been to college.This environmental difference continued until the twins were in their late teens,when they were given tests to measure their intelligence.John's IQ was 125,twenty-five points higher than the average and fully forty points higher than his brother.

15.Whether you live in Seattle or the Sahara desert,the time has come to invest in a good raincoat or umbrella,a new study suggests.
As global temperatures continue to rise,more"extreme rain"events-intense,cats-and-dogs downpours-can be expected,said the study,published Monda y in the journal Nature Climate Change.And that,scientists said,means an increased flood risk,particularly for the world's driest areas.The study challenges the idea that global warming is causing dry areas to become drier and wet areas wetter.
"In both wet and dry regions,we see these great increases in heavy precipitation(冰雹),"lead author Markus Donat,a climate scientist at the University of New South Wales,told Nature.
Donat and his team collected data from 1951 to 2010 on extreme precipitation events from 11,000 weather stations around the world,Nature reported.
In that time,the number of days with"extreme precipitation"increased 1 percent to 2 percent per decade.
"We found a strong relationship between global warming and an increase in rainfall,particularly in areas outside of the tropics,"Donat said in a statement.
"Importantly,this research suggests we will see these extreme rainfall events increases at regional levels in dry areas,not just as an average across the globe,"Donat added.
Peter Stott,a senior climate scientist at Met Office,told Climate Central that the study's findings are important,because more violent rainfall and flooding will"challenge our capability to adapt to a rapidly changing climate."
As Nature reported,the research aligns(结盟)with a 2015 study that found global warming has led to a sharp increase in record-breaking precipitation ev ents.Donat told Nature that his study should come as a warning to world governments.
33.Which of the following is one of the study's findings?B
A.Global warming is causing dry areas to become drier and wet areas wetter.
B.Extreme rain events can be expected at regional levels in dry areas.
C.Extreme rainfall events increase at regional levels in wet areas.
D.Rainfall increases particularly in the tropics areas.
34.Why does Scott think the findings are important?C
A.The research aligns with a 2015 study.
B.They are about extreme precipitation events.
C.They remind us to adjust to rapid climate changes.
D.The study involves many famous climate scientists.
35.The purpose of the study is toD.
A.encourage investors to start business in Seattle or the Sahara desert
B.persuade people to take a raincoat or an umbrella with them
C.challenge the previous findings of research on climate
D.warn world governments to focus on global warming.
2.The newspaper must provide for the reader the facts,pure,unprejudiced,objectively selected facts.But in these days of complex news it must provide more; it must supply interpretation,the meaning of the facts.This is the most important assignment facing American journalists-to make clear to the reader the problems of the day,to make international news understandable as community news,to recognize that there is no longer any such thing as"local"news,because any event in the international area has a local reaction in the financial market,political circles,in terms,indeed,of our very way of life.
There is in journalism a widespread view that when you start an interpretation,you are entering dangerous waters,the rushing tides of opinion.This is nonsense.
The opponents of interpretation insist that the writer and the editor shall limit himself to the"facts".This insistence raises two questions.What are the facts?And:Are the bare facts enough?
As for the first question,consider how a so called"factual"story comes about.The reporter collects,say,fifty facts; out of these fifty,his space being necessarily restricted,he selects the ten which he considers most important.This is Judgment Number One.Then he or his editor decides which of these ten facts shall hold the lead of the piece.This is Judgment Number Two.Then the night editor determines whether the article shall be presented on page one,where it has a large influence,or on page twentyfour,where it has little.Judgment Number Three.
Thus in the presentation of a socalled"factual"or"objective"story,at least three judgments are involved.And they are judgments not at all unlike those involved in interpretation,in which reporter and editor,calling upon their research resources,their general background,and their"news neutralism(中立)",arrive at a conclusion as to the significance of the news.
The two areas of judgment,presentation of the news and its interpretation,are both objective rather than subjective processes-as objective,that is,as any human being can be.If an editor is determined to give a prejudiced view of the news,he can do it in other ways and more effectively than by interpretation.He can do it by the selection of those facts that support his particular viewpoint.Or he can do it by the place he gives a story-promoting it to page one or dragging it to page thirty.
61.According to Paragraphs 12,which of the following statements is true?D
A.The most important task of reporters is to provide facts for the readers.
B.If a reporter makes clear the facts he writes,he will get into trouble.
C.In order to make current events clear to the readers,reporters and editors must select facts objectively.
D.For reporters,interpretation of facts is no less important than presentation of the facts.
62.Which of the following can best express the author's attitude toward objectiveness?A
A.He does not think there exists any objectiveness in news writing or reporting.
B.To make clear the news is a way to be objective for the readers.
C.Objectiveness is controlled by editors rather than writers.
D.Properly choosing facts prepares a solid ground for objectiveness.
63.Where a story is presented in a newspaper showsD.
A.the story's factual matter  
B.the editor's prejudice
C.the reporter's background  
D.the story's impact on the readers
64.The purpose of the last paragraph is toC.
A.show us the author's judgment  
B.show us where to place a story
C.show us the author's viewpoint on objectiveness
