Winter Adventures Await in the Canadian Rockies
Alberta is the top destination for the outdoor wonderland experiences and the chilly winter is the hottest season of the year for you to adventure in the most beautiful magical, powerful places on the planet and keeps you coming back. Here are tips for experiencing some of the best adventures winter has to offer in Alberta.
Hit the slopes
Set deep in what's widely regarded as the world's most scenic ski area at Banff National Park, the Lake Louise Ski Resort invites everyone from first-timers to advanced shredders to its 4, 200 acres of skiable area.
Climb a frozen waterfall
Jasper National Park, part of the Canadian Rocky Mountain Parks World Heritage site, has an area of 6, 759 square miles of mountains, glacial peaks and forests. Rivers lead to steep falls, which freeze into ice climbs as early as October and valley climbs form just a month later. While experienced climbers can cope with the frozen waterfalls without a guide, beginners need not shy away:basic training courses are offered for free.
Blaze a trail in the snow
The Athabasca Glacier is an ancient relic among the massive Columbia Ice field. While it's recommended to access the glacier only with an experienced guide, the area surrounding it offers cross-country snowshoeing trails that lead to it. No matter your mode of transport, this area is one of the darkest in Canada, which means the night sky provides a perfect backdrop for the dancing northern lights-so dress extra warm and struggle through the deep snow to glimpse one of nature's
most colorful wonders.
Hidden gem
The month-long Snow-Day festival takes over Banff National Park each January. Cultural and sporting events, including ice carving and the Big Bear ski and rail competition, unfold throughout the event, but the real treat comes at the start, when live music fills the streets during the party, and a beer garden and ice fire pit keep the tourists warm.
The most splendid winter sunset can be seen throughout Alberta. As Mike Libecki, a National Geographic Adventurer of the Year, says, Alberta is one that keeps him coming back.
1. What is a unique activity in the Jasper National Park?
A. Adventuring in the Canadian Rockies. B. Climbing the frozen waterfalls.
C. Watching beautiful sunset. D. Skiing in the snow mountain.
2. Which would be a destination for those who are eager to enjoy polar lights?
A. Banff National Park B. Jasper National Park
C. The Athabasca Glacier D. The Lake Louise Ski Resort
3. When is the best time for tourists to visit Banff National Park?
A. In early October. B. In late November.

4. What is Alberta most probably?
A. It is a region full of tourist resources in Canada.

A few years back I worked in a university building that also housed an entire department full of psychologists, all of whom seemed to see us as perfect guinea pigs(实验对象) for their latest studies. I learned to be cautious about answering seemingly casual questions in the elevator. If one of them showed up in my office bearing a plate of snacks and asked me to pick some, I'd cast a doubtful glance and ask "Why?" before grabbing the apple fritter.
So one day, when someone from the Psychology Department posted instructions in the
bathroom advising us to think about five things you're grateful for every day for a week, my response was frankly suspicious. I did the math. Five things a day for seven days is a lot of brainpower to consume without so much as the promise of an apple fritter.
I wandered into the office of Zetzer, the director of our school's Psychological Services Clinic. That was when I first heard the term" positive psychology" and discovered that "the gratitude thing", as Heidi had explained it. "It's only a week, "she urged. "Try it. ” So I did.
I started looking for my five moments of gratitude in each day. By the end of that week, I found myself slowing down a little and taking time to notice things I might have walked past before, including a bunch of young students laughing together, They are so smart and optimistic, giving me so much hope for the future!
I couldn't be more grateful to my wonderful husband. He's a great cook. He always puts our family first. My oldest son took his vacation to come and help out at home. He took me to all my medical appointments, and made me laugh by titling his spring break "Driving Miss Leslie. "The kindness of a colleague with a green thumb made sure my plants stayed alive until I could care for them again.
Life will never be perfect, I still see news stories that distress me. But with just one simple exercise, I'm rediscovering the deep meaning of old sayings: accepting the things I cannot change, working to change what I can, and being wise enough to know the difference.
And all it took was a little gratitude.
5. Why did the author hesitate about the snacks offered by psychologists?
A. She had no appetite for snacks.
B. She didn't think snacks could show gratitude.
C. She disliked those psychologists.
D. She cared about what to be paid for them.
6. What can we infer from the second paragraph of the passage?
A. The instructions seemed to make sense to Leslie.
B. No one would behave as the instructions suggested.
C. Leslie had no intention of following the instructions.
D. The psychologists were actually playing a joke.
7. What did Leslie achieve at last?
A. She overcame her psychological problem.
B. She realized how hard it was to be grateful.
C. She found Heidi was really a reliable doctor.
D. She learned to be positive and show gratitude.
【答案】5. D 6. C 7. D
【解析】
本文是夹叙夹议文。在一个星期的时间里,作者坚持每天都能发现五件她特别感激的事情,而且每天都有所不同。生活永远不会完美。但通过这么一个简单的练习,作者重新发现了那句老话的意义:接受我不能改变的事情,毫无怨言地去改变我能改变的,并且足够明智地知道两者的区别,这只需要一点感激之情。
【5题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段A few years back I worked in a university building that also housed an entire department full of psychologists, all of whom seemed to see us as perfect guinea pigs for their latest studies.可知几年前,我在一所大学的大楼里工作,那里还有一个全是心理学家的部门,他们似乎都把我们当作他们最新研究的完美实验对象。以及后文If one of them showed up in my office bearing a plate of snacks and asked me to pick some, I'd cast a doubtful glance and ask "Why?" before grabbing the apple fritter.可知如果他们中的一个拿着一盘零食出现在我的办公室,让我挑选一些,我会疑惑地瞥上一眼,问“为什么?”由此可推知,作者对心理学家提供的零食犹豫不决因为她关心的是要为他们付出什么。故选D。
【6题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段中So one day, when someone from the Psychology Department posted instructions in the bathroom advising us to think about five things you're grateful for every day for a week, my response was frankly suspicious.可知所以有一天,当心理学系的某个人在浴室里贴出指示,建议我们在一周的时间里每天思考五件你要感恩的事情时,我对此的反应是非常怀疑的。由此可知,Leslie对指示表示怀疑,即她不打算按照指示去做。故选C。
【7题详解】
推理判断题。根据倒数第四段中By the end of that week, I found myself slowing down a little and taking time to notice things I might have walked past before, including a bunch of young students laughing together, They are so smart and optimistic, giving me so much hope for the future!
可知那一周结束的时候,我发现自己放慢了脚步,花了一些时间去注意我以前可能走过的地方,包括一群年轻的学生在一起欢笑,他们是如此的聪明和乐观,给了我对未来如此多的希望!以及最后一段And all it took was a little gratitude.可知只需要一点感激。由此可推知,Leslie最后学会了积极和感恩。故选D。

As doctors performed surgery on Dagmar Turner's brain, the sound of a violin filled the operating room. The music came from the patient on the operating table. In a video from the surgery, the violinist was moving her bow(琴弓)up and down as surgeons behind a plastic sheet worked to remove her brain tumor(肿瘤).The King's College Hospital surgeons woke her up in the middle of the operation in order to ensure they did not damage parts of the brain necessary for playing the violin and keep her hand's functions intact.
Turner, 53, learned that she had a slow-growing tumor. Later doctors found that it had become more aggressive and the violinist decided to have surgery to remove it. Turner recalled doctors telling her, "Your tumor is on the right-hand side, so it will not affect your right hand, it will affect your left hand. "Staring down at her left hand, she said, “This is my most important part. My job these days is playing the violin, which is my passion. ”
" We knew how important the violin is to Turner, so it was vital that we preserved function in the delicate areas of her brain that allowed her to play, "Keyoumars Ashkan, a doctor at King's College Hospital, said in a press release.
Before Turner's operation, Ashkan and his colleagues spent two hours carefully mapping her brain to identify areas that were active when she played the violin and those controlling language and movement. Waking her up during surgery then allowed doctors to monitor whether those parts were suffering damage. The surgery was a success. Ashkan said, "We managed to remove over 90 percent of the tumour, including all areas suspicious of aggressive activity, while retaining full function of her left hand."
Brad Mahon, expert at Carnegie Mellon University, said the basic features of an "awake craniotomy"-the type of brain surgery where patients are awake in order to avoid damage to critical brain areas--have remained largely unchanged for decades. For example, doctors have long used simple tests such as asking a patient to name what they're seeing in pictures to make sure language ability is preserved.
But he said that doctors are now able to map the patient's brain activity in great detail before
the surgery, using an imaging technique called functional MRI. That means surgeons are coming into the operating room with tar more information about a specific patient's brain. That kind of information helps doctors tailor tests to a patient's particular needs.
8. What does the underlined word “intact” mean in the first paragraph?
A. strong B. sound
C. talented D. influential
9. Why did Ashkan and his colleagues map Turner's brain before operation?
A. To keep her brain more active when she played the violin.
B. To monitor whether her brain had suffered damage severely.
C. To recognize the areas related to music and movement precisely.
D. To remove the tumor while keeping all function of her brain.
10. What can we know according to Brad Mahon?
A. Doctors are using an imaging technique to monitor the surgery.
B. Patients are asleep to protect critical brain areas in a surgery.
C. A patient's language ability couldn't be preserved before.
D. Surgeons can personalize a patient's operation by mapping his brain.
11. What is the best title for the passage?
A. Musician joined in her own brain surgery
B. Mapping a brain is realized after surgery
C. The violinist suffers from a brain tumor
D. Doctors perform surgery on a brain
【答案】8. B 9. C 10. D 11. A
【解析】
这是一篇说明文。本文主要讲述了小提琴家Dagmar Turner在大脑肿瘤手术的过程,医生为了确保不会损伤拉小提琴所必需的大脑部分,同时保持她的手的功能不受影响,在手术进行到一半时把Turner叫醒拉小提琴。文章还说明了医生对相关技术发展的介绍。
【8题详解】
词义猜测题。结合上文The King's College Hospital surgeons woke her up in the middle of the operation in order to ensure they did not damage parts of the brain necessary for playing the violin and keep her hand's functions
可知皇家学院医院外科医生们为了确保他们没有损害拉小提琴必须用到的大脑部分,并且保持她手部功能的完整性,他们在手术中叫醒了她。由此可知,划线单词意思为“无损的,健全的”。故选B。
【9题详解】
细节理解题。根据第四段中Before Turner's operation, Ashkan and his colleagues spent two hours carefully mapping her brain to identify areas that were active when she played the violin and those controlling language and movement.可知在Turner动手术之前,Ashkan和他的同事们花了两个小时仔细绘制她的大脑图谱,以确定她拉小提琴时活跃的区域以及控制语言和动作的区域。由此可知,Ashkan和他的同事在手术前绘制了Turner的大脑是为了准确识别与音乐和运动相关的区域。故选C。
【10题详解】
细节理解题。根据最后一段中But he said that doctors are now able to map the patient's brain activity in great detail before the surgery, using an imaging technique called functional MRI.可知但他说,医生现在可以使用一种称为功能性核磁共振成像的成像技术,在手术前非常详细地描绘病人的大脑活动。由此可知,外科医生可以通过绘制病人的大脑图谱来个性化病人的手术。故选D。
【11题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第一段中As doctors performed surgery on Dagmar Turner's brain, the sound of a violin filled the operating room. The music came from the patient on the operating table.可知当医生为Dagmar Turner的大脑做手术时,手术室里充满了小提琴的声音。音乐来自于手术台上的病人。本文主要讲述了小提琴家Dagmar Turner在大脑肿瘤手术的过程,医生为了确保不会损伤拉小提琴所必需的大脑部分,同时保持她的手的功能不受影响,在手术进行到一半时把Turner叫醒拉小提琴。文章还说明了医生对相关技术发展的介绍。由此可知A选项“音乐家参加了她自己的脑部手术”最符合文章标题。故选A。
D
There has been a lot of such news lately. As far as the problems with today's schools are concerned, we can go back to how our culture has evolved.
In general, our culture, as represented in the media, gets excited by famous stars, and stresses that it's what you have, not what you are, that counts. Parents are encouraged to be away from even very small children for most of the day. Too many people vote for politicians who would rather cut school funding than stop tax cuts for the wealthy. All contribute greatly to the problems
of educating our children.
Today's teachers have to deal with a culture that is vastly different than in the past. They report that there is, among more children than ever, a lack of motivation, no drive to succeed or even try. In the media, the role models that boys see mostly consist of men in comedies and other shows, who are rude and often extremely childish; self-centered overpaid athletes; men in movies, television or video games, who are violent and powerful. As Leonard Sax wrote in Boys Adrift, "Teenage boys are looking for models of mature adulthood, but we no longer make any collective effort to provide such models."
Girls are attacked not only with such annoying images of males, but also with women who are extremely materialistic.
In such a cultural environment, it is more important than ever to have responsible parents who are devoted to their children and see to it as their duty to model for them and raise them with high standards of honesty and responsibility. They need to care enough to see that their children are not attacked with the rubbish that comes from movie, television and computer screens.
In today's culture, they are basically alone in this effort since, unfortunately, so much is working against them. Until we, as a culture, face the truth about ourselves- that we are not providing adequately for a great many of our children, as Jim Taylor titled his book "Your Children are Under Attack”。
12. What does "such news" in the beginning most probably involve?
A. Cultural evolution. B. Financial risk from tax cuts.
C. Problems in education. D. Social influence of the media.
13. What does today's culture bring to the children?
A. Narrow access to entertainment. B. Poor social abilities.
C. Few materialistic models. D. Too much negative effect.
14. What do parents have to do in today's culture?
A. Find more models for their children.
B. Keep their kids from the bad effect of the media.
C. Forbid their children to use computers.
D. Encourage their children to stay at school.
15. What is the author's attitude towards today's culture?
A. Indifferent. B. Ambiguous.
C. Dissatisfied. D. Approving.
【答案】12. C 13. D 14. B 15. C
【解析】
这是一篇议论文。文章主要讨论了如今的学校存在很多问题,其中最大的问题与我们的文化密切相关。这种文化问题让孩子们缺乏动力以及对成功的欲望,孩子们没有正确的榜样,以及在这样的文化中父母需要对孩子付出更多但却得不到支持。
【12题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段中As far as the problems with today's schools are concerned, we can go back to how our culture has evolved.可知就当今学校的问题而言,我们可以追溯到我们的文化是如何演变的。由此可推知,指的是学校里的问题,即“这样的新闻”一开始最可能涉及的是教育问题。故选C。
【13题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中They report that there is, among more children than ever, a lack of motivation, no drive to succeed or even try.可知他们报告说,比以往任何时候都多,孩子们缺乏动力,没有成功的动力,甚至没有尝试的动力。由此可知,今天的文化给孩子们带来了太多的负面影响。故选D。
【14题详解】
细节理解题。根据倒数第二段中They need to care enough to see that their children are not attacked with the rubbish that comes from movie, television and computer screens.可知他们需要足够的关心,以确保他们的孩子不会受到来自电影、电视和电脑屏幕的垃圾的攻击。由此可知,在今天的文化中,父母必须让他们的孩子远离媒体的不良影响。故选B。
【15题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段Until we, as a culture, face the truth about ourselves - that we are not providing adequately for a great many of our children - the storm will continue to rage over our education system.可知直到我们,作为一个文化,面对我们自己的真相——我们没有为我们的许多孩子提供足够的东西——这场风暴将继续肆虐我们的教育系统。由此可推知,作者对当今文化的态度是不满意的。故选C。
第二节(共5小题;每小题2. 5分, 满分12. 5分)
根据短文内容, 从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项,
并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。选项中有两项为多余选项。
We know that a smart phone app can bring us a lot of benefits when we learn another language. ___16___ Many of us have to endure hours of school lessons with our heads buried in textbooks. It's no wonder then that technology appears to be providing a better way of learning.
Having a smartphone means you can have a virtual teacher with you wherever you go, and there is certainly a huge demand for language learning apps. Many app developers are keen to cash in on the demand, hoping to share a piece of the app market. ___17___One of many popular apps, Duolingo, offers 91 courses in 30 languages and has more than 300 million users.
___18___They offer languages not popular enough to be taught at evening classes, or at most universities. And others offer' invented' language courses in Esperanto, Elvish and Star Trek's Klingon-lessons you might not find in a traditional classroom. Whatever you want to learn, apps allow you to go at your own pace and fit learning around other commitments. But they're not perfect-you might not get your head round the grammar. Lacking the peer support you could get in a classroom environment is a challenge, too.
So, does technology spell the end of traditional classrooms and teachers? Guy Baron, head of modern languages at Aberystwyth University, thinks not. He told the BBC that the apps are very conversational. . . they're not designed for degrees, but they could be additional resources. ___19___
Certainly technology is going to help in and outside the classroom. But motivation can be a problem when using an app. ___20___Of course, if you have a genuine reason to learn another language, you will no doubt stick with it.
A. There are numerous learning apps available.
B. Some educational apps are targeted at specific small groups.
C. A coming message may easily get distracted from your online lessons.
D. The content may be not what you really want and it is quite a waste of time.
E. Apps should be used alongside classroom methods, not separated from traditional teaching.
F. It opens doors, makes you more employable, helps you make new friends, and it's fun too.
G. Attending a real lesson, facing a real teacher, probably helps you to be more devoted.
【答案】16. F 17. A 18. B 19. E 20. G
【解析】
这是一篇说明文。我们知道,当我们学习另一种语言时,智能手机应用程序可以给我们带来很多好处。文章就此说明了使用智能手机应用程序学习的一些优势和与传统课堂授课相比可能存在的一些问题。
【16题详解】
根据上文We know that a smart phone app can bring us a lot of benefits when we learn another language.可知我们知道,当我们学习另一种语言时,智能手机应用程序可以给我们带来很多好处。由此可知,本句承接上文继续说明只能手机应用程序的一些优点。故F选项“它打开了一扇门,让你更有就业机会,帮助你结交新朋友,而且它也很有趣”符合上下文语境,故选F。
【17题详解】
根据后文One of many popular apps, Duolingo, offers 91 courses in 30 languages and has more than 300 million users.可知许多流行的应用程序之一,Duolingo,提供了30种语言的91门课程,拥有超过3亿的用户。由此可知,本句启示下文,说明有很多学习应用程序可供使用。故A选项“有很多学习应用程序可供使用”符合上下文语境,故选A。
【18题详解】
根据后文They offer languages not popular enough to be taught at evening classes, or at most universities. And others offer' invented' language courses in Esperanto, Elvish and Star Trek's Klingon-lessons you might not find in a traditional classroom.可知他们提供的语言并不流行,不适合在夜校或大多数大学教授。还有一些学校提供世界语、精灵语和《星际迷航》中克林贡语的“发明”语言课程,这些课程你可能在传统课堂上找不到。由此可知,有一些教育程序针对的是小群体用户,他们提供的语言并不流行。故B选项“一些教育应用程序是针对特定的小群体的”符合上下文语境,故选B。
【19题详解】
根据上文He told the BBC that the apps are very conversational. . . they're not designed for degrees, but they could be additional resources.可知他告诉BBC,这些应用程序非常口语化……它们不是为学位而设计的,但它们可以是额外的资源。由此可知,本句承接上文的观点说明,这些应用程序并不属于主流的学习方法,因为它非常口语化,也不是为学位而设计的,所以要和课堂教学方法一起使用,而不是与传统教学分离。故E选项“应用程序应该与课堂教学方法一起使用,而不是与传统教学分离”符合上下文语境,故选E。
【20题详解】
根据上文Certainly technology is going to help in and outside the classroom. But motivation can be a problem when using an app.可知当然,技术在课堂内外都会有所帮助。但在使用应用程序时,动机可能是个问题。由此可知,使用应用程序学习时,可能会存在分心或者只是想玩手机这种动机不纯的问题,所以本句承接上文说明,参加一个真正的课程,面对一个真正的老师,可能会帮助你更投入到学习中。故G选项“参加一个真正的课程,面对一个真正的老师,可能会帮助你更投入”符合上下文语境,故选G。

The Budj Bim Cultural Landscape has long been regarded as a wonder of ancient engineering. The water system in Australia___36___ (build)more than 6, 000 years ago- long before even the Egyptian pyramids took shape.
Ancient inhabitants of the region made the system of channels and dams as an ___37___(extraordinary)complex trap for the eels(鳗鱼)that locals depended on for food. Budj Bim was recognized as___38___World Heritage site today, but few suspected the system ran so far and so deep.
In fact, it took a disaster for Budj Bim ___39___(reveal)itself in all its former glory. Bushfires, ___40___(spark)by record temperatures and lasting drought, have burned away the thick leaves covering the water system, ___41___(allow)the full scale of Budj Bim to emerge from the flames.
The Egyptian pyramids were made with materials that were plentiful nearby, and___42___was Budj Bim. It was made with the area's most ready resource: volcanic rock. That building block came from the lava of a now-inactive volcano, ___43___ the ancient people used to redirect waters from Lake Condah-waters heavy with eels.
Now the Aboriginals still call parts of the area home, and their population ___44___(decline)dramatically since Europeans arrived on the continent.
