What they walked into was a heated human drama. ‎ Once inside, the cops, Lt. Louis Sojo and Officers Esanidy Cuevas and Michael Rivera, were approached by a store security guard who asked for help with a suspected shoplifter. The woman in question didn’t have the look of a career criminal. She was obviously scared, and her cheeks were wet with tears. ‎ The cops peeked inside her bag. “All we saw was containers of food.” Cuevas told CBS New York. ‎ ‎"I’m hungry," she explained quietly. ‎ Caught red-handed, the woman no doubt expected to be sentenced to jail for the crime of being hungry while poor. But the cops had other ideas. “We’ll pay for her food,” Sojo told the surprised security guard. ‎ There’d been no discussion among the three men. It went unsaid. Instead, they picked up the woman’s bag and accompanied her to a cash register, where each took out $10 to pay the tab. She would not be arrested today. ‎ All the woman could do was weep in gratitude. Covering her face with a kerchief and drying her eyes, she repeated, “Thank you, thank you.”‎ She wasn’t the only one touched by this act of mercy. “It was a very beautiful, genuine moment,” says Paul Bozymowski, who was at the store. He was so taken by what he’d witnessed that he posted a photo on Twitter for all to see. ‎ But attention was never what the officers sought. They were driven by a far more common emotion. As Sojo told CNN, “When you look at someone’s face and see that they need you and they’re actually hungry, it’s pretty difficult as a human being to walk away from something like this.”‎ ‎1. What can be learnt about the woman from the passage?‎ A. She had stolen in the shop several times before.‎ B. She was caught on the spot by three police officers.‎ C. She was found innocent and would not be arrested.‎ D. She was forced to commit the crime due to the dilemma of life.‎ ‎2. Paul Bozymowski posted a photo on Twitter to .‎ A. appeal for sympathy for the people in need B. express his gratitude to the police officers C. show more people the cops’ act of kindness D. record the unforgettable moment in his life ‎3. What drove the three police officers to pay for the woman?‎ A. Their great devotion to work B. A deep sense of being human C. The attraction of the public attention D. Their different attitude towards shoplifting ‎【文章大意】这是一篇新闻报道。文章讲述纽约市的三位警察非但没有逮捕一名偷东西的妇女反而为她买单的新闻。‎ ‎1. D【解析】推理判断题。根据文章"I’m hungry," she explained quietly（“我饿了，”她平静地解释道）以及最后一段 When you look at someone’s face and see that they need you and they’re actually hungry, it’s pretty difficult as a human being to walk away from something like this （当你看着一个人的脸，发现他们需要你，而且他们真的很饿，作为一个人很难从这样的事情中走开）可知，这位女士是因为肚子饿才不得已到超市偷东西的，是因为生活的不易才导致犯罪的。故选D项。‎ ‎2. C【解析】推理判断题。根据文章倒数第二段 She wasn’t the only one touched by this act of mercy. “It was a very beautiful, genuine moment,” says Paul Bozymowski, who was at the store. He was so taken by what he’d witnessed that he posted a photo on Twitter for all to see（她不是唯一一个被这种仁慈行为感动的人。“那是一个非常美丽、真实的时刻，”在店里Paul Bozymowski说。他被所见所闻深深吸引，并在推特上发布了一张照片供所有人观看）可知，他被警察的善良感动了，并且他想让更多的人知道警察的善良行为。选C项。‎ ‎3. B【解析】细节理解题。根据文章最后一段When you look at someone’s face and see that they need you and they’re actually hungry, it’s pretty difficult as a human being to walk away from something like this（当你看着一个人的脸，发现他们需要你，而且他们真的很饿，作为一个人很难从这样的事情中走开）可知，警察们觉得，作为一个人很难做到见到需要帮助的人而不伸手帮助的。故选B项。‎ B（2020届山东省青岛市高三第三次模拟）‎ Innovative Designs for Accessibility Deadline: 2020-04-30 ‎ Award: $ 7,500 CAD Open to: University students The Innovative(创新的) Designs for Accessibility student competition challenges students across Canada to use their creativity to develop innovative, cost-effective and practical solutions to accessibility barriers for people with disabilities.

These high-contrast markings represent some of the nature’s most diverse evolutionary choices. For some animals, black -and- white coloring is a way to warn off natural enemies. For others, to keep insects away. For still others, it creates a clever cover. Spend some time exploring what science has discovered about these animals’ appearances, and you will see that basic black and white isn’t so basic after all.‎ Skunk Depending on the species, black skunks may wear white spots that act as a cover or white stripes(条纹)that signal enemies to watch out for their smelly spray.‎ Giant Panda Resent insights into panda coloring have come from studying each body part separately. Black ears indicate fierceness, and distinct eye patches aid in individual recognition. The panda in white body hides it against snow, white its dark limbs(四肢) keep it from being spotted in forests, a compromise developed from its poor bamboo diet: Bamboo doesn’t let pandas build up enough fat to hibernate(冬眠), forcing them to spend winters in the snow.‎ Badger Even when a badger is in its cave, its facial stripes can be seen, Zoologists say the warning coloration helps the small animal prevent natural enemies.‎ Blackbuck(male)‎ In bright sun, the buck’s white stomach reduces the effect of the shadow cast by his back, allowing him to appear one color and two dimensional — especially hiding from natural enemies in his own shadown.‎ ‎1. Which animals can use their color to warn off natural enemies?‎ A. Skunk and Badger B. Giant panda and Zebra C. Badger and Blackbuck D. Zebra and Blackbuck ‎2. White body and dark limbs help the giant panda to ________.‎ A. show fierceness B. store fat C. recognize individuals D. take cover ‎3. What can be a suitable title for the text?‎ A. Which animals have black- and-white color?‎ B. How some animals protect themselves from harm.‎ C. Why so many animals wear black- and- white coats?‎ D. What science has discovered about different colors.‎ ‎【语篇解读】这是一篇应用文。自然多样性进化选择的一种结果是世界上很多引人注目的野兽都只有黑白两种颜色。这两个颜色帮助一些动物吓走天敌，帮助一些动物远离昆虫，还可以帮助一些动物隐藏。以臭鼬、大熊猫、獾、雄性的印度羚四种动物为例，进一步证明了黑白色不是那么简单。‎ ‎1. A ‎ ‎【解析】细节理解题。由Skunk小标题下的内容可知，臭鼬身上白色的条纹是用来暗示敌人小心它喷出恶臭的液体。由Badger小标题下的内容可知，獾脸上的条纹可以帮助这些小动物远离天敌。故A选项正确。‎ ‎2. D ‎ ‎【解析】细节理解题。由Giant Panda小标题下的“The panda in white body hides it against snow, white its dark limbs(四肢)keep it from being spotted in forests”可知，熊猫白色的身体帮它在雪地里隐藏起来，而深色的四肢帮它在森林里不被发现。A. show fierceness展现凶猛；B. store fat储存脂肪；C. recognize individuals识别个体；D. take cover躲藏，隐蔽。故D选项正确。‎ ‎3. C ‎ 主旨大意题。由文章第一段最后一句“Spend some time exploring what science has discovered about these animals’ appearances, and you will see that basic black and white isn’t so basic after all.”可知，作者想和大家一起分享科学家们对这些动物外观的研究成果，让大家明白黑白色并不是那么简单的。也就是说让大家知道为什么那么多动物只是黑白色？故C选项正确。‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎
