Everglades National Park (大沼泽地国家公园) is located in the state of Florida. It is the largest wilderness in the entire country and makes up 25% of the wetlands in the state. The park is home to several rare and endangered species. It is also the third largest national park in the US, after Death Valley and Yellowstone. Each year, about 1 million tourists visit the park. On a global level, it has been announced as a World Heritage Site.
Unlike most other national parks, Everglades National Park was created to protect an ecosystem (生态系统) from damage. In 1947, President Harry Truman spoke at the official opening of Everglades National Park, saying the goal of creating the park was to protect forever a wild area that could never be replaced.
10,000 different islands make up Everglades National Park. Each of these islands is lived by natural wildlife. The Everglades is home to about 15 species that are endangered. In addition, more than 350 bird species and 300 species of fresh
and saltwater fish live within the park. The Everglades is also home to 40 species of mammals and 50 reptile species.
There are many ways to explore the Everglades. Visitors can see alligators (短吻鳄) while hiking the Anhinga Trail. The Everglades is one of the only places on Earth where freshwater alligators and saltwater crocodiles live in the same area. Visitors using airboats are likely to see large groups of birds. Some visitors might enjoy riding bicycles through Shark Valley. Others may want to move slowly through waters where they can see insects and wildlife closely.
According to experts, changes to the Everglades are becoming a danger to several different kinds of wildlife. They say it is a result of actions the US government began more than 50 years ago, and settlers began even earlier.

(2018·淄博高三诊断)Daydreaming was viewed as a waste of time. Or it was considered an unhealthy escape from real life and its duties. Daydreaming has always had a bad reputation, but now scientific research has showed that daydreaming may actually improve your mental health and creativity. It can even help you achieve your desired goals.
Now some people are taking a fresh look at daydreaming. Some think it may be a very healthy thing to do. Researchers are finding daydreaming, they tell us, is a good means of relaxation. But its benefits go beyond this. A number of psychologists have conducted experiments and have reached some surprising conclusions.
Dr. Joan T. Freyberg has concluded that daydreaming contributes to intellectual growth. It also improves concentration, attention span, and the ability to get along with others, she says. In an experiment with school children, the same researcher found that daydreaming led the children to pay more attention to details. They had more happy feelings. They worked together better. Another researcher reported that daydreaming seemed to produce improved selfcontrol and creative abilities.
But that's only part of the_story. The most remarkable thing about daydreaming may be its usefulness in shaping our future lives as we want them to be. Industrialist Henry J. Kaiser believed that much of his success was due to the positive use of daydreaming. He maintained that “you can imagine your future”. Florence Nightingale dreamed of becoming a nurse. The young Thomas Edison pictured himself as an inventor. For these famous achievers, it appears that their daydreams came true.
Of course daydreaming is no substitute (代替者) for hard work. You have to work hard to develop skills. Daydreaming alone can't turn you into your heart's desire. But in combination with the more usual methods of selfdevelopment, it might make a critical difference. And who knows: You might see your own daydreams come true.
语篇解读:本文是一篇说明文。一直以来,人们都认为白日梦是浪费时间。然而,现代科学研究表明,白日梦实际上可能改善精神健康和提高创造力,还有助于实现想要达成的目标。
8.From the scientific research, a few minutes' daydreaming will ________.
A.relieve stress effectively
B.improve grades
C.escape from real life and duties
D.gain a positive attitudes towards exams
解析:选A 细节理解题。根据第二段第三句可知,科学研究表明,白日梦能使人放松。故A项正确。
9.According to Dr. Joan T. Freyberg, daydreaming can __________.
A.reduce failure in examinations
B.help rapid and continuous physical growth
C.improve selfcontrol and creative abilities
D.benefit improvement of concentration
解析:选D 细节理解题。根据第三段第二句可知,Joan T. Freyberg博士认为白日梦有助于集中注意力。故D项正确。
10.What does “the story” in Paragraph 4 refer to?
A.The attention. B.The conclusion.
C.The contribution. D.The concentration.
解析:选B 短语猜测题。第三段主要陈述了Joan T. Freyberg博士的结论是白日梦有助于改善人的注意力。根据下文所举的例子可知,有关白日梦最值得注意的地方也许是它按照我们的愿望去塑造我们未来生活的作用。由此可知,第三段提到的内容只是结论中的一部分,所以“the story”指的是结论。故B项正确。
11.Nightingale and Edison are examples to explain that daydreaming probably ________.
A.earns a good reputation
B.takes the place of hard work
C.pictures future profession
D.turns the desire into reality
解析:选C 推理判断题。根据第四段可知,南丁格尔梦想自己成为一名护士,年轻时的爱迪生把自己想象成一个发明家;再结合第四段最后一句可推知,两个例子都在解释白日梦也许能勾画出未来的职业。故C项正确。
D
If asked if space exploration should continue, most Americans would give an immediate response either in favor of continuing or in favor of ending space exploration. A common response would be that space exploration is a waste of money. An average American, uneducated on the subject, might believe that the government is wasting billions of dollars on the research that has no value. Someone strange to the subject might say that a space shuttle goes up once in a while and that is about all that happens. Research is ongoing and continues when there are no shuttles being launched. This also costs the government money. Does the extreme cost of space exploration make sense?
One argument is that the government is wasting money on the research not being used on Earth. Actually, the money goes to workers and scientists that support National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) missions, and goes to major companies that play important roles in major sectors of the US economy. Boeing is a partner of NASA for aircraft, the same company that makes commercial aircraft for the airline industry.
Another benefit to continuing space exploration is the many technologies it provides. The artificial (人造的) heart resulted from experiments on the space shuttle. The handheld
Jaws of Life used to save victims from car accidents resulted from the system used to separate the space shuttle from its booster rockets. Insulation (隔热板) in homes that keeps them warm and energy efficient is based on the technology used to insulate the space shuttle.
There are direct benefits to the economy provided by NASA missions as well as those technologies. These advances are found in food, building materials, medical procedures and the vehicles we drive. While it can be proven that billions of dollars that could be used elsewhere is being spent on space exploration, the benefits it provides outweigh the terrible aspects. As a matter of fact, the money spent helps to improve the quality of our lives.
语篇解读:本文是一篇议论文。很多美国人对政府投入巨资用于太空研究存在质疑,那么这是否值得呢?本文作者就此问题指出了将钱投入太空研究的诸多好处,如经济航班的使用,还有太空研究所提供的许多技术,以及带来的经济利益等。
12.How is Paragraph 2 mainly developed?
A.By offering analyses.
B.By making comparisons.
C.By giving some examples.
D.By presenting research findings.
解析:选A 写作手法题。通读第二段内容可知,该段主要分析了钱花在了科研人员和机构身上的事实;由此可知,第二段采取的主要写作手法是分析说明。故选A。

Ⅱ.阅读七选五
(2018·河北省三市高三联考)What is happiness? When you can feel inner peace and satisfaction, you are happy. __1__ This
usually happens when we do something we love or achieve something that we value. It is our opinions that make us feel happy or unhappy. All of us constantly go through various situations or conditions, but we do not have to let them influence our reactions and feelings. __2__
Try hard to make a change of the way you look at things. __3__ That means looking at the good and positive side of every situation. Pay attention to solutions, not problems. Listen to relaxing and uplifting music. Watch funny and interesting programs that make you laugh.
Always look at what you have done and not at what you haven't done. Look at what you can do, not at what you cannot do. Each day do at least one act to make others happy. When you make someone happy, you'll become happy, and then people will try to make you happy. __4__ On the contrary, be happy for their happiness. Communicate with happy people and try to learn from them to be happy. Remember, do your best to stay detached (冷静的)when things do not occur as intended and desired. Detachment has much to do with inner peace. __5__
A.I've never regretted it.
B.Always look at the bright side.
C.Do not envy people who are happy.
D.Stop asking for everyone's approval.
E.Inner peace can lead to happiness, so smile more often.
F.Here are a few tips for increasing happiness in daily life.
G.It is usually experienced at a special moment.
语篇解读:本文就如何提高幸福感提出了几条建议。
1.选G 由空后一句可知,幸福感总是在我们做我们喜欢做的事情或者得到我们重视的东西时出现;据此可知,G项“在特定的时刻通常会体验到幸福感”引出下文,故G项正确。
2.选F 根据下文内容可知,下面两段阐述的是提高幸福感的建议,所以选F项,F项起承上启下的作用。
3.选B 根据空后一句“That means looking at the good and positive side of every situation.”可知,选B项“要看到事物光明的一面”。
4.选C 根据空后一句“On the contrary, be happy for their happiness.”可知,空处的意思与“be happy for their happiness”相反,故空处选C项“不要嫉妒幸福的人”。
5.选E 根据空前一句“Detachment has much to do with inner peace.”可知,冷静地面对事情和内心的平静有很大关系,据此可以判断,空处阐述的是内心的平静和幸福的关系,故E项正确。
