the early 1970s.Named after Disney’s seven dwarves，they were shipped to America and sold to circuses and zoos.Happy and Grumpy ended up in the Bronx zoo，where they lived in an enclosure for 25 years.In 2002 they were transferred to a larger enclosure with a second pair of pachyderms，Patty and Maxine.Their new environment was a little closer to the wild one，in which elephants form large families.But Patty and Maxine charged at Grumpy，injuring her.Unable to walk and with suppurating wounds，Grumpy was euthanised.‎ Happy was then paired with a younger female elephant，Sammy.She died of kidney failure in 2006.But meanwhile Happy had become a scientific celebrity.In 2005 she became the first elephant to pass the “mirror self-recognition test”，an indicator of self-consciousness.Scientists painted a white cross over her left eye，and led her to a large mirror.Happy repeatedly touched the marking with her trunk，showing that she recognized herself.Most animals (and human infants) cannot do this.‎ Now Happy is stretching the limits of people’s understanding of animals once again.On December 14th a court in New York state heard a request to grant her a writ of habeas corpus.Steven Wise，a lawyer，argued that，as an intelligent，self-aware being，Happy is entitled to the full protection of the law.Habeas corpus，an ancient common-law principle，guards against arbitrary imprisonment.‎ So far，all applications for habeas corpus relief for animals have been turned down in American and European courts.However，in a case in May 2018 involving Tommy，a chimpanzee，one of the judges said he thought the main argument for denying habeas corpus to chimps was wrong.This is that they lack the capacity to carry out legal duties or be held accountable for their actions.As the judge pointed out，“The same is true for human infants and comatose human adults，yet no one would suppose it is improper to seek a writ of habeas corpus on behalf of one’s infant child.” Happy’s case is likely to drag on for a while.When it is resolved，it could fundamentally alter the way some animals—especially great apes—are treated in law.‎ Over the past few decades，the science of animal cognition has changed people’s ‎ understanding of other species.In several，researchers have discovered emotions，intelligence and behaviour once thought to belong exclusively to humans.Recently，animal advocates have tried to push existing welfare laws into new areas.In Iowa，the Animal Legal Defence Fund sued a private zoo for infringing the Endangered Species Act，which protects wild animals.It won，and the US Department of Agriculture revoked the zoo’s license.The same organization，arguing that Oregon law permits victims of violence to sue for redress，filed suit for damages on behalf of an eight-year-old racehorse，Justice，who had been found severely frostbitten and malnourished and whose owner had been convicted of neglect.‎ ‎58.The fact that Happy repeatedly touched the marking with her trunk showed that .‎ A.she was cleverer than other animals B.she was aware of herself C.she was curious about new things D.she liked to look at herself in the mirror 答案　B 解析　细节理解题。根据第二段中的“mirror self-recognition test”(镜面自我认知测试)和“Scientists painted a white cross over her left eye，and led her to a large mirror.Happy repeatedly touched the marking with her trunk，showing that she recognized herself.”可知答案选B，大象Happy能意识到自己。‎ ‎59.Steven Wise held the opinion that .‎ A.Happy should be protected B.Happy should be kept in a zoo C.Happy should be put into prison D.Happy should be denied of her rights 答案　A 解析　推理判断题。根据第三段中的“Steven Wise，a lawyer，argued that，as an intelligent，self-aware being，Happy is entitled to the full protection of the law.”可以推断，该律师是赞成大象Happy应该得到保护的。所以答案选A。‎ ‎60.The underlined word “revoke” in the last paragraph probably means “ ”.‎ A.issue B.renew C.obtain D.cancel 答案　D 解析　词义猜测题。根据最后一段中的“In Iowa，the Animal Legal Defence Fund sued a private zoo for infringing the Endangered Species Act，which protects wild animals.It won...”可知这家动物园被起诉了，并且基金会胜诉了，所以可以推知动物园应该是被吊销了执照。‎ C The world is producing ever more rubbish.Households and businesses took out 2bn tonnes of trash in 2016，the equivalent of 740g each day for every person on the planet.The World Bank predicts the annual pile could grow by 70% by 2050，as the developing world gets richer.‎ Such waste is not simply unsightly，it also threatens public health.Diarrhoea(腹泻)，respiratory(呼吸的) infections and neurological conditions are more common in areas where waste is not regularly collected.And even where it is，it can cause environmental problems.Greenhouse gases from the waste industry，principally in the form of methane(甲烷) from older landfill sites，could account for as much as a tenth of the global total by 2025.The case for taking action is clear.But what kind of action depends on where you are.‎ Poorer countries often lack good waste infrastructure.Rubbish piles up on open dumps(垃圾堆)，if not in the street.In July，for example，India’s Supreme Court warned that Delhi is buried under “mountain-loads of garbage”.Such places must invest enough to get the basics right.One study found that burning，dumping or discharging rubbish into waterways costs south Asian economies $375 per tonne in pollution and disease.Basic disposal systems would cost only $50－100 per tonne.Morocco’s government assumes the $300m it has recently invested in sanitary landfills has already averted $440m in damage.Such spending makes sense even when budgets are tight.‎ The rich world has a different problem.It is good at collection.But at the start of 2018，China，until then the destination for many of the world’s recyclable material，stopped importing most waste plastic and paper，and severely curtailed imports of cardboard.Rich countries must recycle more，dispose of more waste at home or no longer produce as much.‎ For environmentalists the preference for recycling is obvious.Some even want economies to become “circular”—ie，to reuse or recycle everything.But anyone arguing that reducing physical waste is a moral imperative(紧急的事情) needs to consider recycling’s hidden costs.Somebody must pick out，clean，transport and process junk.When the time and effort obviously pay off，the economy is already naturally circular.Three quarters of all aluminium ever smelted remains in use，and there is a thriving market for used aluminium cans.But for other materials，recycling just isn’t worth it.‎ That is partly because chucking(扔掉) stuff out is artificially(人工地) cheap.Were landfill and incineration(焚烧) priced to reflect their environmental and social costs，people would throw their rubbish in the river or dump it by the road instead.Rules to discourage waste should therefore focus on producers rather than households.The principle of taxing pollution should be extended to cover makers of things that will need disposing of.A good example is the requirement，pioneered in Europe，for firms to finance the collection and recycling of electronic waste.‎ ‎61.The example of India’s Supreme Court’s warning in Para.3 is used to show .‎ A.Delhi is buried under garbage B.there are many open dumps in India C.basic disposal system is expensive D.India is poor and lacks infrastructure 答案　D 解析　推理判断题。根据第三段前三句“Poorer countries often lack good waste infrastructure...for example，India’s Supreme Court warned that...”可知，印度最高法院的警告说明印度很贫困，缺乏垃圾处理设备。故选D。‎ ‎62.What happened at the start of 2018?‎ A.Rich countries began to recycle more.‎ B.China stopped importing more waste materials.‎ C.Rich countries stopped producing more waste materials.‎ D.China became the destination of recyclable materials.‎ 答案　B 解析　细节理解题。根据第四段中的“But at the start of 2018，China，until then the destination for many of the world’s recyclable material，stopped importing most waste plastic and paper...”可知选B，即中国停止进口更多的垃圾材料。‎ ‎63.What attitude does the environmentalist hold towards recycling according to the passage?‎ A.Objective. B.Indifferent.‎ C.Supportive. D.Opposed.‎ 答案　C 解析　细节理解题。根据倒数第二段第一句“For environmentalists the preference for recycling is obvious.”可知，环保主义者是赞成垃圾回收的。故选C。‎ ‎64.How should the world deal with the hidden costs of recycling?‎ A.Producers should take more responsibility.‎ B.Governments should finance firms for recycling.‎ C.Poor countries must invest more on infrastructures.‎ D.Rich countries should waste less and recycle more.‎ 答案　A 解析　细节理解题。根据最后一段中的“Rules to discourage waste should therefore focus on producers rather than households.”可知，选项A符合题意。‎ D To learn to think is to learn to question.Those who don’t question never truly think for themselves.These are simple rules that have governed the advancement of science and human ‎ thought since the beginning of time.Advancements are made when thinkers question theories and introduce new ones.Unfortunately，it is often the great and respected thinkers who end up slowing the progress of human thought.Aristotle was a brilliant philosopher whose theories explained much of the natural world，often incorrectly.He was so esteemed by the scientific community that even 1,200 years after his death，scientists were still trying to build upon his mistakes rather than correct them!‎ Brilliant minds can intimidate up-and-coming thinkers who are not confident of their abilities.They often believe they are inferior to the minds of giants such as Aristotle，leading many to accept current paradigms instead of questioning them.‎ I，like many thinkers of the past，once believed in my mental inferiority.I was certain that my parents，my teachers—adults in general—were always right.They were like a textbook to me; I didn’t question what was written on those pages.I respected them，and accepted whatever they told me.But that attitude soon changed.My mind’s independence was first stimulated in the classroom.‎ A stern,65-year-old elementary-school science teacher once told me that light is a type of wave.I confidently went through years of school believing that light is a wave.One day，however I heard the German exchange student mention that light could be made up of particles.As the others laughed at his statement，I started to question my beliefs.‎ Maybe the teachers and textbooks hadn’t given me the whole story.I went to the library，did some research and learned of the light-as-a-wave versus light-as-a-particle debate.I read about Einstein’s discovery of the dual nature of light and learned the facts of a paradox(悖论) that puzzles the world’s greatest thinkers to this day.Light behaves as both a particle and a wave，it is both at once.I realized I had gone through life accepting only half of the story as the whole truth.‎ Each new year brought more new facts，and I formulated even more questions.I found myself in the library after school，trying to find my own answers to gain a more complete understanding of what I thought I already knew.I discovered that my parents and teachers are incredible tools in my quest for knowledge，but they are never the final word.Even textbooks can be challenged.I learned to question my sources，I learned to be a thinker.I once believed that everything I learned at home and at school was certain，but I have now discovered to reexamine when necessary.‎ Questions are said to be the path to knowledge and truth，and I plan to continue questioning.How many things do we know for sure today that we will question in the future? At this moment，I know that our sun will burn for another five billion years，and I know nothing can escape the gravity of a black hole.This knowledge，however，may change in the next 20 years—maybe even in the next two.The one thing we can control now is our openness to discovery.Questions are the tools of open minds，and open minds are the key to intellectual advancement.‎ 语篇解读　本文是一篇议论文。只有人们质疑以前的理论并提出新的理论时，我们的社会才可以取得进步。质疑是通往知识和真理的道路，质疑可以让我们的思维更加开放，而开放性思维是思想进步的关键因素。此文主要是在讲质疑权威的重要性。‎ ‎65.In the first paragraph，Aristotle is taken as an example to show that .‎ A.he is the greatest and respected philosopher of all time B.huge influence of great thinkers may block human thought C.advancements are made when thinkers question theories D.great thinkers often make mistakes and then correct them 答案　B 解析　推理判断题。根据第一段第四句“Advancements are made when thinkers question theories and introduce new ones.”可知，只有人们质疑以前的理论并提出新的理论时，才可以取得进步。第一段中还提到了亚里士多德提出了很多错误理论，但是后世并没有纠正，反而在他错误理论的基础上发展。即这些伟大的思想家从某种程度上阻碍了人类思想的进步。故B项正确。‎ ‎66.What does the underlined word “intimidate” in Paragraph 2 mean?‎ A.Frighten. B.Encourage.‎ C.Strengthen. D.Persuade.‎ 答案　A 解析　词义猜测题。根据第二段最后一句可知，后人会认为自己的思想比亚里士多德要低级。所以，面对亚里士多德的权威，后人会感到害怕。故A项正确。‎ ‎67.The author began to question his previous beliefs because .‎ A.what he learned from textbooks before turned out to be wrong B.he was inspired by the different ideas from an exchange student C.he was laughed at by other students for his unacceptable statement D.he was not satisfied with his life and desperate to achieve success 答案　B 解析　推理判断题。根据第四段最后两句可知，作者受一个德国留学生说过的话的鼓舞，质疑以前错误的观点。故B项正确。‎ ‎68.According to the passage，the author .‎ A.looks down upon great thinkers all the time B.never doubts what he has learned in the textbook C.always throws himself into the laboratory D.determines to be a thinker and questioner 答案　D 解析　‎ 推理判断题。根据最后一段第一句可知，质疑是通往知识和真理的道路，作者会继续做一名思考者和质疑者。故D项正确。‎ ‎69.We can conclude from the last paragraph that .‎ A.the author is not quite sure about his future B.we human beings don’t dare to predict future C.questioning is necessary to promote advancement D.the theory of black holes will change in two years 答案　C 解析　推理判断题。根据最后一段第一句和最后一句可知，质疑是通往知识和真理的道路，质疑可以让我们的思维更加开放，而开放性思维是思想进步的关键因素。故C项正确。‎ ‎70.What does the passage mainly talk about?‎ A.Following rules. B.Challenging yourself.‎ C.Questioning giants. D.Predicting future.‎ 答案　C 解析　主旨大意题。本文是一篇议论文。只有人们质疑以前的理论并提出新的理论时，我们的社会才可以取得进步。质疑是通往知识和真理的道路，质疑可以让我们的思维更加开放，而开放性思维是思想进步的关键因素。此文主要是在讲质疑权威的重要性。故C项正确。‎ 第四部分　任务型阅读(共10小题；每小题1分，满分10分)‎ 请认真阅读下面短文，并根据所读内容在文章后表格中的空格里填入一个最恰当的单词。‎ 注意：每个空格只填一个单词。‎ Increasingly，over the past few decades，people—especially young people，have become aware of the need to change their eating habits，because much of the food they eat，especially processed food，is not good for the health.Consequently，there has been a growing interest in natural foods：foods which do not contain chemical additives and which have not been affected by chemical fertilizers，widely used in farming today.‎ Natural foods，for example，are vegetables，fruit and grain which have been grown in soil that is rich in organic matter.In simple terms，this means that the soil has been nourished by unused vegetable matter，which provides it with essential vitamins and minerals.This in itself is a natural process compared with the use of chemicals and fertilizers，the main purpose of which is to increase the amount—but not the quality of foods grown in commercial farming area.‎ Natural foods also include animals which have been allowed to feed and move freely in healthy pastures(牧场).Compare this with what happens in the mass production of poultry：there are battery farms，for example，where thousands of chickens live crowded together in one building and are fed on food which is little better than rubbish.Chickens kept in this way are not only tasteless as food，they also lay eggs which lack important vitamins.‎ There are other aspects of healthy eating which are now receiving increasing attention from ‎ experts on diet.Take，for example，the question of sugar.This is actually a non-essential food！Although a natural alternative，such as honey，can be used to sweeten food if it is necessary，we can in fact do without it.It is not that sugar is harmful in itself.But it does seem to be addictive：the quantity we use has grown steadily over the last two centuries and in Britain today each person consumes an average of 200 pounds a year！Yet all it does is to provide us with energy，in the form，of calories.There are no vitamins in it，no minerals and no fiber.‎ It is significant that nowadays fiber is considered to be an important part of a healthy diet.In white bread，for example，the fiber has been removed.But it is present in unrefined flour and of course in vegetables.It is interesting to note that in countries where the national diet contains plenty of unrefined flour and vegetables，certain diseases are comparatively rare.Hence the emphasis is placed on the eating of wholemeal bread and more vegetables by modern experts on “healthy eating”.‎ Introduction ‎•Changing eating habits is a 71. for

responsible individuals capable of sensible and independent judgments and decisions.Living on or off campus is really a matter of personal choice and different ‎ students can make their decisions that best accord with their individual needs.‎ Over the years，as many Chinese families become financially well-off，they can afford their sons and daughters better-equipped apartments off campus.In the rented accommodation，a student enjoys greater personal freedom—a more tranquil environment in which they can concentrate on their studies and greater privacy with which they can associate with their

is easier to manage time if living off campus.And students can have more freedom.The lifestyle could help students learn to control their behaviors.‎ The disadvantages are also obvious.It may be not

a good idea to live off campus.Otherwise，living on campus may be a suitable way of living.‎
