It is the first major U.S. city with a law like this. Do you think more places should pass such a law? Here are some ideas.Sally, Seoul, South Korea We should make it illegal in more cities because texting while walking can be dangerous. If you are looking at your phone while walking, you might not see a car come or the traffic light turn red.Andrew, Sydney, Australia I disagree because we have the right to make our own decisions. The government needs to stop telling us what to do. After all, this is a free country. And police need a lot of time to catch real criminals (犯人).Madeline, Paris, France This law is a good idea. If this law goes into effect in more cities, people will be upset. But is there really a way to please everyone? This would not be for fun. It would be for the benefit and safety of all the people.Anjali, Tokyo, Japan People do many things that cause injury (伤害) to themselves but are not illegal. People might get hurt from texting while walking if theyre not paying attention. But I still think they should have a choice.（1） recently passed a law making it illegal to text while crossing the street. A . SeoulB . SydneyC . HawaiiD . Paris（2）What does Sally think of texting while walking? A . CommonB . Dangerous.C . Strange.D . Unhealthy.（3）According to Madeline, .A . people might not see a car come while textingB . the law would be for the benefit of all the peopleC . people have the right to make their own decisionsD . people do many things that cause injury to themselves15. （6分）阅读理解 Hayao Miyazaki(宫崎骏) was born in Tokyo on January 5, 1941.

He thought of the idea about gravitational waves years ago with his Theory of Relativity, but scientists are finally discovering that it really exists now. But what are gravitational waves, and why are they important?Well, gravitational waves are made by black holes and can change time in space. Black holes arent holes but are lots of matter put together into a very small area. They are created when a star, much like our sun, explodes and leaves behind this dense* material. It doesnt shine like a star any more, and it becomes black.The black holes that made these waves are special. About 1.3 billion years ago, there were two black holes that kept moving closer and closer together. Finally, they hit each other and formed one big black hole. The energy is given off and created the ripples* in space. These ripples are gravitational waves. For example, imagine you throw a stone into a pool. It creates ripples that change the shape of the water. Well, thats kind of what the influence of one black hole hitting the other has in space.Gravitational waves are hard to explore. But thanks to the efforts of scientists, the ripples were discovered on Feb. 11th, which is the first time in human history. Einstein was excellent to know this 100 years ago before we have the technology. It can give us a new view of the universe we live in. The discovery of gravitational waves, unlike stars, galaxies and other bright objects, black holes dont produce light, so we cant see them by tools. Gravitational waves allow scientists to look at the universe not only with light, but also with gravity. Everything else in astronomy like the eye, A scientist told The New York Times. Finally, astronomy grew ears. We had never ears before.Now, we will be able to find black holes and things that are much further away from Earth, which means much more space exploration in the future. And who knows, this discovery could even lead to time travel!（1）Gravitational waves are ripples that are created by A . starsB . lots of matterC . different materialsD . black holes（2）The third paragraph of the passage is mainly about .A . how black holes are formedB . how gravitational waves are createdC . why gravitational waves are importantD . why black holes are black（3）The discovery of gravitational waves can help people . A . understand the shape of waterB . see black holes clearlyC . learn more about the universeD . travel anywhere freely（4）What can we learn from the passage? A . Albert Einstein discovered gravitational waves.B . Where there are black holes, there are gravitational waves.C . Gravitational waves are to astronomy what ears to people.D . Gravitational waves are easy for scientists to be found by light.四、 任务型阅读 (共1题；共10分)18. （10分）完成表格。阅读下面短文，根据短文内容,完成表格中所缺的信息。每空一词。There are many libraries in Britain. Lets learn something about them.Public librariesMost towns in Britain have a public library. A library usually has a large selection of books and other resources, which library members can use and borrow for free.Britains First Public LibraryThe first Britains public library opened in Manchester in 1852. Its first librarian was a man called Edward Edwards. Edwards attended the librarys opening ceremony and two famous writers called Charles Dickens and William Thackeray were there, too.Services of libraryModern public libraries have something for everyone. Most of them have audio books, CDs, newspapers and DVDs as well as books to borrow.How to Join a LibraryTo join a library, go to your local library and fill in a form. Youll receive a library card which is needed when using library services.Mobile LibrariesNot everyone can get to a library. Some people live far away from towns and cities. Other people find it difficult to go out because they have an illness or a disability. Thanks to mobile libraries, these people can still borrow books.The libraries are special. Unlike most libraries, which store books in buildings, mobile libraries usually keep their books in a mini-bus. The back of the mini-bus has shelves for the books, and it is big enough for borrowers to step inside and look around. A driver take the mini-bus to a certain place at a certain time, so people know when to expect it. They can return their books and borrow some more.All Aboard the Library!A school in London didnt have space for a library inside the building. However, everybody agreed that it was still important to have a school library. So, the head of the school, Graham Blake, decided to park an old bus on the school car park and change it into a library. Pupils helped to paint the bus, and after eight months, the new library was ready.TitleLibraries in_LibrariesA large selection of books and other resources can be used and borrowed by library members for_.Edward Edwards was the first _of the first British public library.Library _Most of the _public libraries have audio books, CDs, newspapers and DVDs as well as books for everyone.If you want to join the library, you must get aLibrary _.Special LibrariesThanks to _libraries, those people who cant get to a library can still borrow books. _most libraries, a mini-bus with library books go to a certain place at a certain time.The school in London had to_ its library on an old bus because the school didnt have enough space inside the building.五、 书面表达(10分) (共1题；共10分)19. （10分）假设你邻居Mrs White的宠物狗Bobby的叫声影响了你的正常休息。请你根据下面的内容提示，用6个以上完整的英语句子礼貌地跟Mrs White反映这个问题。 【内容提示】这只小狗很可爱； 但晚上11点后的吠叫声影响了你的休息；希望她能照顾好小狗，让小狗保持安静。第 15 页 共 15 页参考答案一、 单项填空(共6分，每小题0.5分) (共12题；共6分)1-1、2-1、3-1、4-1、5-1、6-1、7-1、8-1、9-1、10-1、11-1、12-1、二、 完形填空(共8分，每小题1分) (共1题；共8分)13-1、三、 阅读下列短文，根据短文内容，从短文后各题所给的A、B、C、D (共4题；共26分)14-1、14-2、14-3、15-1、15-2、15-3、15-4、15-5、16-1、16-2、16-3、16-4、17-1、17-2、17-3、17-4、四、 任务型阅读 (共1题；共10分)18-1、五、 书面表达(10分) (共1题；共10分)19-1、
