The first time I went to Halfmoon Bay. I suddenly had the feeling of not being able to feel the ground with my feet anymore.For my 10th birthday, my sister and I Were taken out to the Great Barrier Reef. There were fish in different colors, caves and layers of coral. They made such an impression on me. When I learned that only 1 percent of Australias Coral Sea was protected, I was shocked. Australian marine life is particularly important because the reefs have more marine species than any other country on earth. But sadly, only 45% of the worlds reefs are considered healthy.This statistic is depressing, so its important forms to do everything to protect them. The hope that the Coral Sea remains a complete eco-system has led me to take action. Ive become involved with the Protect Our Coral Sea activity, which aims to create the largest marine park in the world. It would serve as a place where the oceans species will all have a safe place forever.Together, Angus and I created a little video and we hope it will inspire people to be a part of the movement. Angus also shares many beautiful childhood memories of the ocean as a young boy, who grew up sailing, admiring the beauty of the ocean, and trying to find the secrets of ocean species.24. From the underlined sentence in Para.1, we can learn the author.A. seldom went surfing at the sea B.forgot his experiences about the ocean C.never went back to his hometownD.had a wonderful impression of Halfmoon Bay25.

Water Lily Pond was part of a four-work collection of water lily paintings that Monet put upfor sale during his lifetime.The four paintings of Monets water lily garden were signed and dated by the artist in 1919. One of the other paintings is at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York, while another was sold at auction in 1992 for $ 12.1 million and is in a private collection now. The final painting in the series was cut into two before World War II.After a fierce bidding battle between a number of buyers in the room and on the telephone, the painting finally was sold to a collector for $80. 4 million, setting a new world record price for the artist at auction, said Olivier Camu, a scholar of impressionist art.The last record for a Monet work was set in May when Le Pont du chemin de fer a Argenteuil sold for $41.4 million.The painting sold Tuesday was bought at a 1971 New York auction for $ 320,000. It has not been exhibited since.Monets later works had unique characteristics, especially Grandes decorations, another good example, which was bedded in Musee de IOrangerie in Paris five months after Monets death in 1926.Monet created his water lily garden in Giverny, France.

Our need for closure is our natural preference for definite answers over confusion and uncertainty. Every person has their own baseline level of need for closure. It likely evolved via natural selection.What I find really fascinating is how our need for closure is affected by the situation were in. Our need for closure rises when we have to act rather than just observe, and it matters much more when were rushed, or bored, or tired. Any stress can make our discomfort with uncertainty increase, and a high need for closure negatively influences some of our most important decisions: who we decide to trust, whether we admit were wrong and even howcreative we are.In hiring, for instance, a high need for closure leads people to put far too much weight on their first impression. Its called the Urgency Effect. In one experiment, psychologists tried to lower peoples need for closure by telling them, right before participants are about to make various judgments of a job candidate, that theyll be responsible in some way for them, or that their judgments have serious consequences.In making any big decision, its not enough just to know that we should take our time. We all know that important decisions shouldnt be rushed. The problem is that we dont keep that advice in mind when it matters. So, one of the best solutions is to formalize the reminders. Before making important decisions, write down not just advantages and disadvantages but what the consequences could be. Also, think about how much pressure youre under. If your need for closure is particularly high that day, its even more important to think twice.32. How does need for closure probably come into being?A. By nature.B. By accident.C. By acquiring.D. By imitating.33. It can be inferred that a high need for closure.A. brings about more stressB. causes discomfort and uncertaintyC. leads to not so good decisionsD. promotes ones creativity34. In the experiment the psychologists reduced participants need for closure by telling them to.A. be cautious about their judgmentsB. value their first impressionC. be responsible for their bossD. pay little attention to the consequences35. What would the author probably discuss in the paragraph that follows?A Another strategy to escape the pressures of modern life. B.Some serious consequences of making decisions. C.Other approaches to making important decisions. D.More helpful solutions to high need for closure.第二节(共 5 小题;每小题 2 分,满分 10 分):根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填人空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为 多余选项。Everybody knows the importance of drinking enough water.
