But my graduation day was not. I still remember that weekend two years ago. Many families flew in from across the country to watch our class walk across that stage. But we had seen the economy turn from bad to worse in my senior year.We graduates with degrees, but very limited prospects (前途). I gathered up everything I couldnt carry and put it into storage. Knowing the small university town couldnt offer me any opportunities, I drove to Southern California to find work. But after I sent off a bunch of job applications, I found myself in the exact same spot as I was before. Now the day came for me to pay off my student loans(贷款).Every morning I woke up, I felt anxious. How I hoped what happened to me was just a bad dream! Days felt like weeks, weeks like months. I felt painful and helpless in those months. And the most discouraging part was no matter how much I tried, I just couldnt seem to make any progress.So I began to write. Putting words on a page made everything seem a little brighter. And writing gave me hope. If you want something badly enough, sometimes a little hope is all you need!I channeled my frustration(挫折)into a childrens book. Beyond the River was the story of an unlikely hero featuring a little fish who simply refused to give up on his dream.And then one day, without any sort of writing degree-just a lot of hard work and perseverance(毅力)-I was offered a publishing contract for my first book! After that, things slowly began to improve. I was offered a second book deal. Then, a few months later, I got an interview with The Walt Disney pany and was hired shortly after.If you work hard and give it time, things will always get better. Even if things seem hopeless now, dont give up. Usually, our dreams lie in wait just a little further upstream. All we need is the courage to push beyond the river.8.

The researchers said this greatly increased death rates of the perch, stopping their growth and appearing to change usually behavior. For example, thy are losing the ability to smell a predator(捕食者), which makes them much more vulnerable.For example, they seemed to lose the ability to smell a predator that made them much more vulnerable.Professor Peter Eklov, a co-author of theSciencepaper, said: “This is the first time an animal has been found to prefer to eat plastic particles over food. Increases in microplastic pollution in the Baltic Sea and decreases of the coastal basic species(物种)have recently been noticed. When placed in a tank, perch exposed to microplastic were eaten four times more quickly than perch that had not been eating plastic.”Fellow researcher Oona Lpnnstedt stressed the effects of fish eating large amounts of plastic were likely to be felt throughout the food chain. “If early life-history stages of other species are similarly affected by microplastics, this will in turn increase death rates, so the effects on marine ecosystems could be lasting,” she said.Microplastic is produced as larger pieces of plastic waste are broken down in the environment, but large quantities of microfibers from synthetic clothes-materials essentially made of plastic-are produced each time they are washed and are small enough to pass through waste water treatment plants and get into the sea.Cosmetics(化妆品)panies are also continuing to put microplastic pieces into their products, but the industry says it will try to stop using them by 2020.12. What are the scientists worried about?A. The loss of food sources B. The rising water temperatureC. Large amounts of plastic in the ocean D. Fishes growing bigger and bigger13. The underlined word “vulnerable” in paragraph 3 probably means “_”.A. easily harmed B. strongC. active D. well protected14. What can we know from the text?A. Only species that eat plastic particles will be affectedB. Fish farming contributes much to the pollution of the food chainC. Microplastic means the breakdown of large pieces of plasticD. Products used in our daily life may produce microplastic15. What would be the best title for the text?A. Lets Protect the Marine AnimalsB. Fish Prefer to Eat Plastic over FoodC. The Effects of Plastic PollutionD. The Oceans Are Full of Microplastic Particles【答案】12. C 13. A 14. D 15. B【解析】这篇文章主要讲了研究表明与普通食物相比较而言，鱼更喜欢吃微塑料颗粒。12. 细节理解题。由With fears that the amount of plastic in the oceans could soon equal the weight of fish in the sea, scientists have bee increasingly concerned about the effects on the marine environment.可知科学家对于海洋中大量的塑料制品非常担心，选C。13. 词义猜测题。For example, thy are losing the ability to smell a predator(捕食者), which makes them much more vulnerable. 这段话的意思是例如，它们丧失了察觉到捕食者的能力，这使得它们更容易受到攻击，选A。.15. 主旨大意题。由主题句Microplastic particles(微塑料颗粒)appear to be killing fish because some baby fish prefer to eat the particles rather than their actual food, researchers have warned. 可知这篇文章主要讲了研究表明与普通食物相比较而言，鱼更喜欢吃微塑料颗粒，选B。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。Do you feel a little guilty about your daily nap(小睡)after lunch? Dont. Research shows that catching a short nap can be good for your brain._16_While a 30-to-90-minute nap in older adults appears to have brain benefits, anything longer than an hour and a half may create problems with cognition(认知), the ability to think and form memories, according to the study published in the Journal of the American Geriatrics Society.“_17_But it is related to ones sleep cycles and quality,” says Charlene Gamaldo, M. D. , medical director of Johns Hopkins Sleep Disorders Center. “As the study showed, for older people, longer naps tend to interfere(妨碍)with cognition,” she says._18_Nearly 60 percent of participants reported napping after lunch for about an hour. Scientists found that people who napped for 20 to 90 minutes have a better memory than people who did not nap, or who napped for longer than 90 minutes. People who napped for 30 to 90 minutes were also better at figure drawing, another sign of good cognition.One theory explains poor cognition in those who take longer naps. _19_“In the study, naps longer than 90 minutes could have been called a second sleep. This poor quality nighttime sleep, which requires extra-long napping during the day, can lead to cognitive problems,” Gamaldo adds.According to Gamald, longer naps can cause a couple of other problems, including temporary grogginess(眩晕无力)and inability to sleep at night._20_As a result, “People need to get the right quantity and quality of rest,” says Gamaldo.A. I consider napping to be a good thing.B. But it is the length of your nap that matters.C. Generally speaking, the older one gets, the longer naps one needs.D. Researchers looked at data from 2,974 people in China aged 65 and older.E. Resting more during the day may be a sign of poor quality nighttime sleep.F. Taking long naps during the day makes it difficult for one to fall asleep at night.G. Overall, studies show that people who sleep too much or too little may have poor health.【答案】16. B 17. A 18. D 19.
