While staring out of the window during a flight, not everyone will think carefully about the question why airplanes have rounded windows rather than square ones.

Over the years, aerospace engineering has made huge steps in airplane technology, meaning planes can carry more passengers and go faster. The planes have also changed shape to increase safety—including the windows. As commercial air travel took off in the mid－20th century, airline companies began to fly at higher altitudes to lower their cost—the air density(密度) is lower up there, creating less drag(阻力) for airplanes. However, higher altitudes came with problems, like the fact human beings can’t really survive at 30，000 feet. To make that possible, the cabin was changed to a cylindrical(圆柱体) shape to support the pressure inside. But at first, plane builders left in the standard square windows and this expansion meant disaster. The de__Havilland__Comet came into fashion in the 1950s. With a closed cabin, it was able to go higher and faster than other aircraft.

However, where there’s a corner, there’s a weak spot. Windows, having four corners, have four potential weak spots, making them likely to crash under stress—such as air pressure. By curving the window, the stress that would eventually break the window corner is distributed and the chance of it breaking is reduced. Rounded shapes are also stronger and resist deformation(变形), and can thus survive the extreme differences in pressure between the inside and outside of the aircraft.

Fortunately, designers figured out the lack of design pretty quick. Now we have nice, rounded airplane windows that can resist the pressure of traveling altitude. It gives being able to gaze out of your window to the world from 35，000 feet a whole new outlook, doesn’t it?

24. Why did airlines aim to fly at higher altitudes?

A. To save money for less drag.

B. To help the plane to take off.

C. To increase safety of the plane.

D. To carry more passengers and go faster.

25. What does the underlined words “de Havilland Comet” in Paragraph 2 refer to?

A. An aircraft.

B. A band.

C. A planet.

D. A design.

26. Which is the advantage of the rounded window?

A. It increases the air pressure.

B. It weakens the strength of air pressure.

C. It reduces the possibility of breaking up.

D. It helps to survive the extreme weather.

27. Where does this text come from?

A. A newspaper on safe driving.

B. A science book on flying.

C. A website on survival skills.

D. A magazine on fashion design.

C

The hemlock(铁杉) trees along the Wappinger Creek, New York, look healthy. However, scientist Gary Lovett says the white balls which provide protection for the bugs are created b y a tiny insect. It’s hard to believe the tiny bug could kill a tree. However, trees can end up with millions and millions of the pests. When there are that many, it ends up killing the tree.

The bug from East Asia is slowly killing trees across the USA. The trouble－making bug is just one of many invasive(入侵的) pests that have slipped into the United States. They can hurt other living things in their new home.

Many invasive pests arrive on wooden pallets piled inside shipping containers. They support and separate goods, and keep them from sliding around. Invasive pests often tunnel into the pallets. How can we stop pests from riding on pallets? Lovett says new rules are needed. The companies that make pallets don’t want more rules. Congress has added an amendment(修正案) in the 2018 Farm Bill to try and prevent this problem. However, Lovett is not hopeful it will make much of a difference. Pallets are checked by inspectors. Many are sprayed with bug－killing pesticide. “I believe in the system，” said Brent McClendon, president of The National Wooden Pallet and Container Association. He also said shipping containers are checked very carefully.

Still, each year 13 million containers are shipped to the U．S. Each is full of woo den pallets. Lovett says: “Inspectors can’t possibly check everything. All it takes are a few bad pallets; we should get rid of wooden pallets.” He believes pallets should be made of plastic or eco－composite wood. Eco－composite wood is a mix of wood fiber and plastic. Insects cannot hide into it. One problem is that these choices cost more. They may be worth the extra money, though. Invasive pests cost the U．S. $5 billion a year. Trees don’t just die in forests. They also die in cities and our yards. Then, they need to be replaced. That costs money, too.

28. All the statements are TRUE except that ________．

A. pesticide has been applied to bug－killing

B. invasive pests are native to Wappinger Creek

C. invasive pests hide in pallets used in shipping

D. the companies making pallets don’t want more rules

29. What can we infer from the passage?

A. Bugs can be easily spotted by eyes.

B. Bugs ruin the shipping goods slowly.

C. Bugs won’t bother the tree if just in few numbers.

D. Bugs cover trees with white soft balls for protection.

30. Why does Gary Lovett want to get rid of wooden pallets?

A. Because insects mostly die in them.

B. Because plastic pallets are eco－friendly.

C. Because they are not worth extra money.

D. Because they are the major pest carriers.

31. What does the passage mainly talk about?

A. Invasive pests are harming plants in the USA.

B. Effective measures have stopped the pest invasion.

C. Congress contributes a lot to dealing with invasive pests.

D. Ecosystem in the USA is poorly damaged by invasive woods.

D

Have you ever spent an afternoon in the backyard, maybe grilling or enjoying a basketball game, when suddenly you notice that everything goes quiet? There is an old phrase “calm before the storm”， often used in a situation—a quiet period just before a great activity or excitement. According to our own experience, we know there is actually calm before the storm. But what causes this calm? And is it always calm before the storm? Let's hear what scientists have to say.

A period of calm happens in a particular kind of storm, the simplest kind of storm —a single－cell thunderstorm. In this type of thunderstorm, there is usually only one main updraft, which is warm, damp air and drawn from places near the ground. Storms need warm and damp air as fuel, so they typically draw that air in from surrounding environment. Storms can draw in the air that fit their need from all directions —even from the direction in which the storm is traveling.

As the warm, damp air is pulled into a storm system, it leaves a low－pressure vacuum(真空) coming after. The rising air meets the cold dry air that has already existed in the storm clouds, thus the temperature of the warm, damp air drops, and the water vapour(水蒸汽) in it changes into tiny drops that are a precondition of rain. These drops accumulate and build on larger particles like dust, until they grow large enough to form raindrops.

This warm, damp air keeps moving upwards, but it becomes cooler and drier during its trip through cloud. When it reaches the top of the cloud, the air gets spit out(被挤出) at the top. This air is sent rolling out over the big thunderclouds. From there, the air goes down. Warm and dry air is relatively stable, and once it covers a region, that air, in turn, causes the calm before a storm.

Most thunderstorms, though, don't start with calm. That's because most are actually groups of storms with complex wind patterns. There's so much air moving up and down storm groups that the calm before the storm never happens. Instead, before the storm, it might be really windy!

32. Which best fits the description of a particular kind of storm?

A. A thunderstorm with a single shape.

B. A thunderstorm without strong winds.

C. A storm with air drawn from every direction.

D. A storm fueled by moving air from the ground.

33. What does the underlined word “it” in Paragraph 3 refer to?

A. Cold and dry air.

B. Warm and dry air.

C. Cold and damp air.

D. Warm and damp air.

34. Which does the writer most likely agree to?

A. Presence of the calm relies on stable air.

B. Not all thunderstorms start with the calm.

C. The drier the air is, the bigger the storm will be.

D. Storm happens without air moving up and down.

35. What is the passage mainly about?

A. Causes and effects of a heavy storm.

B. A brief description of a peaceful storm.

C. A personal experience of a heavy storm.

D. An explanation of the calm before a storm.

Last year, Zhang Pingyu paid visit to London. Worried about the time available, Zhang Pingyu had made a list of the site she wanted to see. It was the Tower which she visited first. Fancy! This solid stone, square tower had been remained standing for one thousand years. Many new buildings had expanded around it. Therefore, it was still part of a royal palace and prison combined. There followed St Paul’s Cathedral built after the terrible fire of London in 1666. It looked splendidly when first built. Westminster Abbey, too, was very interesting.

58. B 【解析】此处描述的是作者对John的记忆，这么多年过去了，作者对John依旧记忆犹新，John的一切依旧历历在目。所以选vivid表示“生动清晰的”。前文中的beautiful 是用来形容John的笑容，放在这里不合适。

59. A 【解析】由作者对实习经历的描述可知医护人员对患者是进行照顾，即care for。

60. D 【解析】作者的实习经历教导了作者：医护人员对待垂死患者的方式是一件非常重要的事情，即matter表示“要紧、重要”。

【语篇导读】本文为说明性记叙文，介绍电视节目《见字如面》。

61. to 【解析】介词考查。《见字如面》这档电视节目正将这一保持联系的老方式带回到现代人的视野。bring...to...固定搭配。

62. its 【解析】代词考查。《见字如面》其想法源于一档类似的英国节目Letters Live，该节目于2013年首播。

63. shows 【解析】上下文语篇理解，此处缺名词，feature为谓语动词，且有both 修饰则应该填复数形式。

64. are 【解析】主谓一致就近原则考查。两档节目均无惊人的视觉效果或是常规的娱乐活动。

65. where 【解析】连词考查。先行词在定语从句中充当状语。

66. creativity 【解析】考查词性转换。例如，节目里有一封30年前著名画家黄永玉写给剧作家曹禺的充满激情的信件，批评他缺乏创造力。

67. being read 【解析】非谓语动词考查。听信时，我们仿佛回到过去，身临其境。现在分词作hear 的宾语补充说明，与下文中as if we are being sent back 呼应表示正在被听。

68. published 【解析】非谓语动词考查。过去分词作定语修饰texts 。表示与其他出版文字相比，信件中自然地流露出个人感触。

69. naturally 【解析】副词考查。见上文。

70. has been committed 【解析】动词时态考查。《见字如面》从开播至今还致力于推广中国文学。由since 可知此处应用现在完成时。

Dear Peter ，

Having known that you are interested in our school art festival, I am writing to offer you some detailed information.

This art festival falls in every May at our campus, aimed to enrich our school life and arouse our awareness of carrying forward the precious traditional culture.

Sponsored by our Students ’ Union, the festival covers a wide variety of activities, among which I pay special attention to the Chinese poetry competition, since I hold the belief that one filled with knowledge always behaves with elegance. Poem lovers read, recite seas of poems that they love and exchange their perspectives on poetry.

Why not come and enjoy the strong atmosphere of our festival at the very beginning of May? Your involvement will be warmly welcomed.

Yours，

W: That might help. But the best way is to take a break and rest your eyes.

M: OK. Let’s go to have a cup of tea. I can finish this later tonight.

In the past two months, there have been several shark attacks at Atlantic Beach and Outer Banks Beach in North Carolina. For this reason, we have decided to close down both beaches until further notice. These sharks are white sharks and extremely dangerous. We are asking—but not requiring—owners of small boats and fishermen to avoid activities in these areas. This month, a study from the Florida Museum of Natural History showed that the rise in shark attacks was caused by many factors, some of which can be avoided. Sharks are said to follow the warm ocean currents from the Gulf of Mexico. Graham Schwartz, a shark expert from the University of California, warns swimmers to limit splashing in the water, and to avoid wearing shiny material that could look like the skin of a fish. Although shark attacks are still extremely rare, and are mostly a case of being in the wrong place at the wrong time, we take this problem very seriously at the Department of Parks and Recreation. We thank you for your cooperation, and we hope to reopen our beaches to the public soon!
