21、The insects are important to farmers. When a honeybee lands on a flower in plant, pollen (花粉) sticks to its legs. When the bee lands on another flower, some of the pollen falls off and fertilizes the second plant.
The act of spreading pollen is responsible for many fruits, vegetables, nuts and other crops. Yet about 30 percent of honeybees in the United States and other areas have died in recent years.
Mike Leggett is a researcher at the University of Maryland. He wants to learn why so many bees are dying. “The number of colonies (蜂群) that die every winter has been one in three. So on average 30 percent of the colonies have died every winter over the last six winters. And that’s a huge number.” His research team examined the pollen that honeybees carried to their homes. They found that the pollen contained high levels of 35 different pesticides (杀虫剂), which are chemicals used to protect plants. “Pesticides are used, and have been used, pretty widely, for centuries, to protect plants from diseases,” says Mr Leggett.
Keith Oh linger, a farmer and beekeeper in Maryland, has watched many of his bees die every winter. Mr Ohlinger thinks widespread bee death is caused by several things happening at once. But he does not feel sure that pesticides are a part of the problem, “I felt it was the result of a lot of little things. I didn’t feel that there was probably one smoking gun. But there’s a division (分歧) there, some people feel that it is just one thing.”
Honeybees are important to agriculture. This makes the search for an answer to their death very important for Mr Leggett’s team. As he knows, one in every three bites of food we eat is somehow pollinated by honeybees.
【1】What could be a suitable title for the text?
A．Why Are Honeybees Important?
B．How Do Honeybees Make Honey?
C．Pesticides Might Harm Honeybees
D．Honeybee Protection in Maryland
【2】How does Mr Leggett sound in paragraph 3?
A．Worried.
B．Happy.
C．Surprised.
D．Hopeful.
【3】We know from the fifth paragraph that Keith Ohlinger ________.
A．has become rich by keeping bees
B．cares little about the death of his bees
C．has never used pesticides on his farm
D．doubts whether pesticides have killed his bees
【4】In which part of a website can we most probably read the text?
A．Agriculture.
B．Health.
C．Food.
D．Technology.
22、2018 FIRST Robotics Competition Game—FIRST POWER UPSM
The adventure begins on January 6, 2018. Play for real! Combining the excitement of sport with the rigors(严酷)of science and technology. We call FIRST Robotics Competition the ultimate Sport for the Mind. High-school student participants call it “the hardest fun you’ll ever have”.
Team Basics
The really cool thing about FIRST Robotics Competition is that all skill levels are welcomed and needed, technical or non-technical. Read more about team basics, time frame, commitment, and skills required.
Cost & Registration
What does it cost to participate? There are costs involved with forming a FIRST Robotics Competition team and they can vary from team to team and region to region depending on what level of participation the team chooses.
Here are some basic cost standards:
There are never any “per student” fees; all costs for individual team members are assumed by the team as a group.
The annual fees for team registration, a robot kit of parts, and event participation are $5,000—$6,000. Additional costs for travel, food, team shirts and other optional items will vary.
Scholarships
A big advantage of participating in FIRST is gaining access to millions in college scholarships made available by colleges, universities, and corporations who support FIRST. This is exclusive financial help open only to FIRST team members, giving them a competitive leg up on other students seeking educational funds.

23、 In 2011, the old style Malta buses were taken off the road and replaced by modern vehicles. Most of the old buses were deserted, a few were sold, and about 100 of them were put into storage in the hope of showing them in a museum at some stage.
A pre-2011 visit to Malta wouldn’t have been complete without a ride on one of the colorful buses. Until 1973 you could tell the destination of the bus just by looking at its color — Sliema was green and white, Zabbar was red and white with a blue stripe(条纹)etc. . Later, the buses all had numbers. For a while, they were all painted green and white before the ‘final’ orange, yellow and white.
In their prime, walking around the Triton fountain at the Valletta bus station, you would have found it very difficult to see two buses of exactly the same design. Most of them had locally built bodies. On the front of the buses carried names like Dodge, Leyland, Bedford etc. . You were equally likely to find football pennants(锦旗)and the like decorating the cabs. Real bus experts would have recognized that these were there mainly for decorative reasons, and were seldom an accurate reflection of the vehicle’s origins.
Nowadays much more modern buses are to be found at the Floriana bus station. They are more environmentally friendly and possibly even more comfortable than the older types. However, I miss the old buses. I remember, when you boarded your bus, you had to prepare the correct change to pay the usually bad-tempered driver as you got on. If you were seated anywhere near the front, you would have noticed that most drivers sat well to the right of their steering wheel. The reason for this, as any Maltese would tell you, was to leave space for their pet to sit alongside them. I wonder where the pet sits these days.
【1】What makes a pre-2011 visit to Malta special according to Paragraph 2?
A. Traveling in colorful buses.
B. Using buses with stripes.
C. Painting buses bright colors.
D. Telling destinations by different colors.
【2】Which of the following best explains “prime” underlined in Paragraph 3?
A. Painful time. B. Exciting time.
C. Moment of fantasy. D. Moment of glory.
【3】What can we learn about Malta buses when they were popular?
A. They were of the same pattern.
B. The decorations reflected their origin.
C. Most were uniquely designed.
D. Only football pennants decorated the cabs.
【4】How would the author feel about the old style Malta buses?
A. Comfortable. B. Environment-friendly.
C. Safe. D. Memorable.
24、For the business traveler who’s all about efficiency: check in these hotels that will get you in and out with a minimum trouble. When you’re for pressed time on a business trip, nothing can anger you more than a slow hotel check-in process. On your next trip, try these hotels that offer a quicker check-in process.
● Marriott Detroit Airport
Another choice for business travelers in a hurry: Marriott is rolling out its mobile check-in app to 325 hotels this year, including the Marriott Detroit Airport hotel. (I’ve tested the app itself but not for a real visit quite yet.) Here is the basic idea: you download the iPhone or Android app. The night before, you can “check-in”. When you arrive, you get an warning that the room is ready and your key, which is already tied to your reservation, is waiting for you at the desk.
● Hyatt Regency Minneapolis
I happened to stay at this hotel recently and liked how fast the kiosk(自助终端) check-in works. The kiosk asks you to insert (插入) your credit card, similar to an airport terminal. The whole process took about 3 minutes. When I left, I was equally impressed with the fast check-out: An agent meets you in the lobby with an iPad and asks for an email to use for a receipt. The big advantage: you never have to wait in line.
● Radisson LaCrosse
The Radisson is trying to make the kiosk process even faster. At a few select hotels like the Radisson Lacrosse in Wisconsin，you use a mobile app to register and then receive a bar code by email or text. When you get to the kiosk, you can scan the bar code to get your key without any other steps required. It’s super fast. You can find this new check-in system at the Radisson hotels in Salt Lake City, Seattle, and Phoenix as well.
【1】Which two hotels offer a mobile app for customers to check in?________
A．Marriott Detroit Airport and Radisson LaCrosse.
B．Marriott Detroit Airport and Yotel New York.

B．Three Hotels With Easy Check-in
C．Comfortable Hotels At Your Service
D．Hotels For The Travelers
25、As I stood in line waiting to cash out at a store, I studied the customer in front of me. She was young but had a_________look—as if life had beaten her many times. The items in her cart (手推车) included the cheapest meat and meal.
When the cashier finally told her the_________, the woman’s face paled. She opened a worn wallet and began_________small bills and coins. It was obvious she didn’t have enough, and she checked her groceries to see what she could do without.

I moved forward and motioned_________to the items the woman had taken out, added all my meat and fresh milk, and whispered “_________bags, same bill please” to the cashier. She nodded.
I_________how I could put the bags with extra things into her cart without being caught. My dear cashier solved the problem by “accidentally” rolling several oranges so hard that they flew past the lady and onto the floor.
“I’ll get those,” the woman offered kindly and ran to_________the runaway fruit. I quickly placed the two extra bags into her cart while she was back with the oranges.
“Thank you so much,” I said.
“Thank you for your_________,” she replied before leaving.

26、阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。
At one table by the window, a lady just finished up her lunch. It wasn’t anything fancy, just a sandwich and some salad, with a cup of tea to wash it all down. She seemed to be in her own little world, staring out the window every now and then, like she was waiting for something. After a bit, she got up, paid for her meal at the counter and left.
Her table was still a mess, with bits of her meal left behind. It wasn’t a big deal—this happens all the time. But today, something different was going to happen. A young boy, who looked like he’d had a pretty rough time, had been watching her from the table around the corner.
This boy was in rough shape. His clothes were too big and looked like they’d seen better days. His hair was all over the place, and his face had streaks (条痕) of dirt on it. He had that look of someone who hadn’t had a good meal too long. When the lady left, the boy saw his chance, He quickly sat down and started wolfing down the leftovers (吃剩的食物) like it was the best meal he’d ever had.
But then, the waiter walked over. He was an older guy who’d probably seen everything. He didn’t say anything at first, just watched the boy for a second. The boy got scared, stopped eating, and tears started to fill his eyes. He thought the waiter would kick him out for sure. Instead, the waiter took away the half-eaten plate, and the boy’s heart sank.
The boy got up to leave, but before he could get far, the waiter came back and asked the boy to wait for a moment. The waiter gave him a full and fresh meal.
注意：
1. 续写词数应为150左右;
2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
The whole cafe went quiet when they saw what was happening.
_____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
The boy, with a full stomach and a happy heart, looked as if he couldn’t thank the waiter enough.
