InformationThe University of Adelaide employs a full-time staff of fire prevention professionals.They inspect all campus buildings and test and maintain all sprinkler (喷水灭火装置)systems,fire alarms,and fire extinguishers (灭火器).They also provide educational programs on fire safety in the residence halls.Whenever you move to a new area,you should locate the fire alarm pull stations and the two exits nearest your room.Fire AlarmsThe floors of all campus buildings are equipped with manual (手动的)fire alarm systems which include fire alarm pull stations and pipes.Most are also equipped with automatic fire alarm systems consisting of heat detectors,smoke detectors and sprinklers.For your safety,never tamper with (胡乱摆弄)these systems.False fire alarms are illegal and may lead to imprisonment.Fire DrillsA fire drill will be conducted in your residence hall every semester.During a fire drill,please do the following:Take your room key and ID;close and lock the door to your room.Exit immediately from the nearest emergency exit; do not use a lift.Meet outside of your residence hall and wait for further instructions.7Fire ExtinguishersFire extinguishers are located on each floor and in each apartment.Use a fire extinguisher only if you have been trained to do so.Irresponsible use of a fire extinguisher can create a dangerous situation for other residents and could result in damage to personal property.Misuse of a fire extinguisher will result in fines.Smoke DetectorsA smoke detector is on the ceiling in your room.Some buildings also have heat detectors on the ceilings.Do the following to ensure the safe operation of your smoke detector:If your smoke detector is working properly,the red light should be on.If the red light is not blinking (闪动),contact residence hall staff immediately.Do not cover or block your smoke detector in any way.If a smoke detector sets off an alarm and there is no fire or smoke,inform your hall staff.21.What is the main duty of the fire prevention professionals?A.To provide part-time jobs for students.B.To lead the students to the nearest exits.C.To check and maintain fire prevention equipment.D.To train teachers to be fire prevention professionals.22.What do the automatic fire alarm systems include?A.Pipes and smoke detectors.B.Smoke detectors and sprinklers.8C.Fire alarm pull stations and pipes.D.Sprinklers and fire alarm pull stations.23.What do we know about the use of fire extinguishers?A.Using them wrongly results in punishment.B.Irresponsible use of them can damage them.C.Improper use of them can destroy the apartment.D.Using them without a trainer present is forbidden.BOn August 5 just after 7:30 p.m.,Mike Estepa suffered a serious heart attack.The crazy cyclist was 40 kilometers into his Sunday ride when he stopped by the side of the road to text his family saying hed be home in about 30 minutes.Moments later,he was lying in the ditch,unconscious.Larissa Arthur was driving back to Calgary from a hide in Field,B.C.with a friend.It was a warm and sunny day,and the two were chatting when a flash of yellow caught Arthurs eyes.She immediately pulled off the road.As Arthur approached the figure,she feared the worst:Estepa was covered in ants and exhibited no sign of life.“There was no pulse,and he wasnt breathing,” said Arthur.A bystander called 911 and Arthur,a registered nurse,started chest compressions.She and two other drivers took turns carrying out CPR for the next 15 minutes before medical teams arrived and whisked Estepa away.9Two days later,when Estepa woke up in the hospital,he was shocked to learn he had gone into cardiac arrest (心脏停搏).How did this happen,and why was he lucky enough to have survived?He was full of gratitude and needed to speak with the woman who had saved him,whom he named his “angel”.“It was emotional,” said Arthur of her meeting with Estepa a few weeks later.Saving his life had extra importance for her:the hike she was returning from that day was one of 100 she had planned to honour her father,who died in 2017 after he fell during a hike that Arthur was meant to be on.“I couldnt save my fathers life,” Arthur said,“but this was a chance for me to save someone.”24.Why did Mike Estepa stop while riding?A.He suffered a heart attack.B.He wanted to send a message.C.He would like to lie in the ditch.D.He was far away from his home.25.What do we know about Arthur?B.She was scared of ants.A.She was an amateur nurse.C.She knew how to do CPR.D.She went cycling with a friend.26.Which is closest in meaning to the underlined word “whisked” in Paragraph 3?10A.tookB.putC.sentD.removed27.Whats the best title of the text?A.A Chance to Save LifeB.A Risky Cycling AloneC.An Angel on the RoadsideD.The Difference CPR MakesCDuring my time abroad in college,I travelled to 15 countries in Europe,and it completely changed my life.It changed my view on the world and on my life goals in general.So with that experience,I always knew I wanted to travel more.During school breaks and immediately after graduation,I took three other long backpacking trips around Asia,the Middle East,and Europe again.At that point I realized I had visited some 50 countries.My goal was to visit 100 countries by the time I was 30.For whatever reason,I thought that sounded cool.I ended up achieving that goal at about 25.In 2006,I got an email from a friend saying that there was actually a record of the youngest to visit every country in the world.I basically assessed how long I had to beat the record and where I had to go.Even if I didnt get the record,itd still be fun and Id get to see the whole world.It turns out that it was a great decision,and I have done so much around the world.I became the youngest American to visit every country in 2011 when I was 32 after safely visiting.11But like everyone,I needed to make money to fund the travel I wanted,so I got a proper Wall Street job,worked really hard,and did pretty well.But in the summer of 2008,I simply resigned my position at a major Wall Street firm.It happened right before the collapses of several major firms,so it made me look smart,but it was purely coincidence.I didnt specifically leave my job to pursue the goal.I left the job because I needed a break after eight years.28.How many countries did the author visit at the age of 25 or so?A.15.B.30.C.50.D.100.29.What can we learn from the second paragraph?A.The authors dream came true at last.B.The authors friend has ever set a record.C.The author decided to settle down in America.D.The author regretted travelling around the world.30.What does the author think of his resign from the major Wall Street firm?A.Upset.B.Lucky.C.Stupid.D.Disappointing.31.What does the author mainly talk about?A.His study abroad.B.His daily life.C.His travel.D.His career.12DHawking was perhaps the most famous scientist in the world when he died in 2018 at age 76.His 1988 book,A Brief History of Time,sold ten million copies and made him an unlikely superstar even to people who sweated through high school science.Humour was always a big part of Hawkings effort to bring physics to the masses.In his 2010 book,The Grand Design,for instance,he recounts how,in 1277,the Catholic Church declared scientific laws such as gravity to be wrong,since they seemed against Gods idea.“Interestingly,” the text adds jokingly,“Pope John was killed by the effects of the law of gravity a few months later when the roof of his palace fell in on him.”Hawking was only 21 when he was diagnosed with the disease ALS.For most people,the condition would have been a disaster.But Hawking rolled over hardship as if it were just a pebble under his wheelchair.“Life would be tragic,” he once said,“if it werent funny.” He kept smiling even though he spent more than 50 years in a wheelchair.“He loved adventure and fun,” says Mlodinow,who once took Hawking on a punt-boat trip down the River Cam in Cambridge,England,despite the obvious danger of the boat turning over.“You know about when he went on the Vomit Comet?Its a plane that flies in a parabolic (抛物线的)path so you are weightless,like you are in space.A lot of people vomit,but he loved that sort of thing.” And he was 65 at the time.Hawkings greatest hit,humour-wise,was probably the cocktail party he threw in 2009.It was a “welcome reception for future time travellers,” he said,so naturally,he sent out the invitations the day after the party.No one showed up yet.“Maybe one day someone living in the future will find the information and use a wormhole time machine to come back to my party,proving that time travel will one day be possible,” Hawking explained.And if that 13happens,dont be surprised if Hawking is there too.After all,he never missed a chance to have fun.32.What does the text mainly tell us about Hawking?A.He related physics to humour closely.B.He made great contributions to physics.C.He went through many funny experiences.D.He was optimistic about the future of science.33.What can we learn about Pope John?A.He was not in favour of God.B.He was a scientist like Hawking.C.He was opposed to the law of gravity.D.He was killed due to the discovery of gravity.34.What drove Hawking to go on the Vomit Comet?A.His fondness of adventure.B.The invitation from his friend.C.The requirements of his work.D.His desire for recovery from ALS.35.What can be inferred from the last paragraph?A.The cocktail party was a great success.14B.The possibility of time travel was not proved.C.Hawking was a man who enjoyed holding parties.D.The wormhole time machine was used at that time.第二节(共 5 小题;每小题 2.5 分,满分 12.5 分)阅读下面短文,从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。Just like the United States,Britain is divided into different areas.Britain is one of the most diverse nations in Europe with over 250 different languages being spoken in London alone.With such a various culture,adapting to it can be a challenge for anyone.36 Forget the stereotypes (老套).Many of the long formed stereotypes simply have nothing to do with Britain today.Dont think that everyone enjoys drinking tea or beer.Abandoning some old ideas of people and culture will allow you to be more open-minded and easily get into the culture.37 Britain is made up of different regions that have their different traditions and languages.Understanding different cultures will help you avoid making mistakes. Get used to small spaces.The US is a huge country where we are used to bigger cars,houses and spaces.Like all European nations,Britain does not have the luxury of space.Houses,apartments and cars are all smaller than you are used to.38 39 Always apologize for knocking into someone,even if it was their fault.Respect peoples personal space and always wait in line.Bill Brysons book Notes from a Small Island is filled with many useful tips. 15Accept the jokes.40 Kidding,teasing,or “taking the mick” are all ways to describe making fun of someone but this isnt necessarily a bad thing.Playing tricks on someone is a common way to show affection.As Britons usually put it,“You never make fun of someone you dont like”. A.Be polite.B.Make friends with them.C.Dont play jokes on others.D.Understand the differences.E.Following these steps should be of great help to you.F.One of the most confusing aspects of British culture is humour.G.Therefore,trying to become familiar with smaller areas is very necessary.第三部分语言运用(共两节,满分 30 分)第一节(共 15 小题;每小题 1 分,满分 15 分)阅读下面短文,从每题所给的 A、B、C、D 四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。The sound woke Damian Languell at 8:15 in the morning.It was so41 that he assumed it came from inside his house.As he 42 to investigate (调查),he heard another sound.This one came most 43 from outside.He spied a tree covered in smoke about 500 yards away.A car was wrapped around the trees base,for its engine was on fire. 16The badly44 car looked worse.The car was 45 nearly in two,and the tree was where the drivers seat ought to have been,as if planted there.No one should have survived this 46,and yet there was 16-year-old Quintin Thompson,whose terrified 47 pressed against the drivers side window in visible pain. Languell48 the cars back door and crawled in.Thompson was 49 to get free.Languell says,“Thats when I noticed how bad his 50 were,making him unable to walk.” That made Languell completely ignore his own 51. When the52 got into the front seats,he sawed through Thompsons seat belt.Now that Thompson was 53 of the limits,Languell pulled him out,and then 54 the teen to
