controlled for many reasons,primarily to maintain reliable water supplies for daily,agricultural and industrial needs,for power generation,for navigation (航行),and to prevent flooding.River control is achieved by channelization,a term that covers a range of river engineering works,including widening,deepening,straightening and stabilization of banks,and by the construction of dams.An important period of channelization took place in Europe during the l9th century,when many large rivers were straightened and their beds deepened.One of the most dramatically changes was the Tisza River,a branch of the Danube that flows through Hungary.The controlling of the Tisza,designed to reduce flooding and make land for agriculture,included cutting off more than 100 meanders,shortening the rivers length by nearly 400 kilometers.One of the most common ways in which people control rivers is by damming them.The past 50 years or so has seen an increase in dam construction worldwide,and at the beginning of the 21st century,there were about 800,000 dams globally,some towering more than 200 meters in height.In spite of their successes,many dams also cause significant environmental changes that prove harmful.Some particularly deep reservoirs (水库) can bring about earthquakes due to the stress on their bottom rocks caused by huge volumes of water.Downstream of a reservoir,the river is certainly influenced in many ways: water volume,speed and quality are all affected,leading to changes in the landscape and among plants and animals.【语篇导读】本文是一篇说明文。介绍了从古代开始,人们就学会了控制河流来满足社会的需求,对河流的控制主要通过管/渠道化和修建水坝这两种方式。21.What are the two main ways of controlling rivers?A.By straightening rivers and deepening the beds.B.By reducing flooding

good reasons to frown,for the world was intended to drag me down.At this time,a boy approached me.He stood right before me,and said with great excitement,“Look what I found!”In his hand was a flower,and what a pitiful sight,with its petals (花瓣) all worn.Wanting him to take his flower and go off to play,I faked a small smile and then turned to the other side.But instead of leaving,he sat next to my side and placed the flower to his nose and declared,“It really smells pretty and its beautiful,too.Thats why I picked it.Here,its for you.”The flower before me was dying or dead.But I knew I must take it,or he might never leave.So I reached for the flower,and replied,“Just what I need.”But instead of placing the flower in my hand,he held it in mid-air.It was then that I noticed that the boy was blind.I heard my voice quiver (轻微颤抖),and at the same time my tears shone like the sun.As I thanked him for picking the very best one,he smiled and said,“Youre welcome.” And then he ran off to play,unaware of the impact hed had on me.I sat there and wondered how he managed to see a self-pitying woman beneath an old tree.Perhaps from his heart,hed been blessed with true sight.Through the eyes of the blind boy,I could see the problem was not with the world;the problem was me.And for all of those times I had been blind.From now on I vowed to see beauty and appreciate every second thats mine.Then I held the flower up to my nose and breathed its fragrance and smiled as that young boy.【语篇导读】本文是一篇夹叙夹议文。作者对现在的生活现状感到不满意,情绪比较低落,但当她在公园邂逅一个盲人小孩时,从他那儿学会了如何坚强乐观地看待生活。24.When she sat down to

drivers attention from driving to keeping people on the sofa scrolling (滚屏) videos.But the smartphone that seems to be everywhere could just as easily increase physical activity if it pushes its owners buttons in the right way.New research shows that making social connections through activity-tracking apps gets people to move more.And a separate study on this summers “Pokemon Go” phenomenon shows that the smartphone game got players to take thousands more steps than usual.Together,the studies show the potential for smartphones to push a range of people to be more active.People who linked with friends on the activity-tracking app increase their steps by 400 a day on average over the next week,compared with people who made no social connections,according to Tim Althoff and two other computer scientists at Stanford University.The effect of social connections declined,but remained significant for five months before the numbers fell back even with users who made no connections.Such insights show the promise of smartphones and games to help with one of the most stubborn public health problemsthat even people who want to be active have trouble staying active.An NBA videogame,for example,gives players extra powers in the game if they reach a step goal in real life.The app “Zomies,Run!” uses audio stories to push people to run more or run faster.Still,there is room for growth: Only about 4% of all health apps use “gamification,” such as point-scoring or competition,according to a study published in October in BMJ Open.“Gamification is actually quite closely linked with behavior change techniques,” says Dr.Elizabeth Ann Edwards,the studys lead author and a doctor and researcher at Queen Mary University of London.【语篇导读】本文是一篇应用说明文。智能手机在许多方面受到人们的谴责,但如果无处不在的智能手机运用恰当的话还是有利于人们的锻炼的。比如“Pokemon Go” 智能手机游戏让玩家比平时多走了数千步,而使用音频故事能推动人们跑得更多或跑得更快。27.What does the author think of smartphones?A.They lead to peoples lack

physical symptoms such as sweaty hands and an increased heart rate.31 On the upside.Fear means growth.Fear tells us we are moving towards the edge of our comfort zone.We are doing something unfamiliar and learning new skills.This means we are growing,and growth means that once we go beyond the uncomfortable bit,we will be stronger,better and brighter than before!32Things are never as bad as they seem.In most cases,the thing we fear is never as bad as we think it will be.When we are trying to make a decision to do something new,we lack the perspective to see further than the familiar range.33 No.If you look back on some of the scary things youve had to do in the past,you would now say“What was so scary about this?!”We are always stronger than we think!Fear can teach us so much about our personal powers.There is no other feeling like the victory you feel that makes you realize you won.34 Who cares?Youve made the leap!This will build your confidence!Think of your yoga practice.We can stand on our hands,even though we sometimes doubt it.And it will make us realize that we are so strong!Fear is part of life,and doesnt need to be eliminated.35 We can welcome it;we can cope with it and proceed in spite of it.The best decisions in life are rarely the easiest ones.Or rather,they may seem easy,but often come with fear.To quit your job is not easy,but if you know its the right thing to do,you know what you need to do.Following your heart will not come without fear,but it will come with big rewards.A.Face the feeling of fear bravely.B.And everything unfamiliar is scary?C.Catch every opportunity to be successful.D.We dont need to remove fear from our lives.E.So when you feel fear approaching,say thank you!F.You succeeded,even
