15、 be too.If everyone made a promise to volunteer once a month, or even once a quarter, I know that we could reduce some of the anxiety these organizations feel, as a more reliable volunteer network allows them to focus on helping people, not filling volunteer slots.Here is a list of a few organizatio

The history of the peppered moth(灰蛾) is an example of the natural selection process.In 1

20、9th century England, certain types of peppered moths were able to better blend（融合）into their surroundings. During that time period, great changes were happening in Great Britain. The Industrial Revolution was part of this change, and with it came air pollution. Natural selection often takes hundred

21、or even thousands of years to occur. For the peppered moth, this process occurred comparatively quickly.At the beginning of the Industrial Age, most peppered moths in England were light-colored and covered with black markings, although a few moths had dark-colored wings. Because the light-colored mo

22、ths blended into the light-colored bark on the trees, they could not be easily seen by birds that would eat them. As the air grew more polluted, however, tree trunks became covered with soot(烟煤) and became darker. The light-colored moths became easy for birds to see against the dark tree trunks. Sin

23、ce the dark-colored moths now had the advantage, their numbers grew. Within 50 years, the peppered moth went from being mostly light-colored to being mostly dark-colored.In the 20th century, the air cleared up, and the peppered moth population changed again. As tree trunks lighted due to less soot i

24、n the air, light-colored moths once again had an advantage. Their numbers increased as soot levels declined. Depending on their environment, the coloration of the moths helped them to be “naturally selected” to survive.1、Which of the following has the closest meaning to the underlined word “thrives”

25、 in the first paragraph?AReduces. BBooms.CChanges. DEndangers.2、What can we infer about the peppered moths natural selection process?AThe length of time was unusual.BThe soot levels in England did not affect it.CThis type of color change was typical for moths.DIt was a good example of environmental

26、protection.3、Whats the difference between light-colored and dark-colored moths?ADark-colored moths were originally easy to see on trees.BBoth kinds of moths preferred the dark-colored trees.CBirds failed to see light-colored moths.DThe color of moths was unimportant.4、Which would most likely happen

27、if soot darkened Englands trees again?ABirds would eat fewer moths.BMoths would not be able to stay alive.CLight-colored moths would disturb peoples life.DThe population of dark-colored moths would increase.23（8分）We are enrolled in the full-time school called “life”. Every day in this school, we hav

28、e opportunities to learn new lessons. No matter whether we like these lessons or not, we have to take them, because they are our lessons.Why are we here in this world? What is the purpose of life? Humans have tried to discover the meaning of life for thousands of years, but failed to get the answer,

29、 because the meaning of life is different from person to person.Each one of us has his or her special purpose and path, unique and different. As we travel on our life path, we will learn many great lessons in order to fulfill that purpose. Learning our lessons well is the key to discovering the real

30、 meaning of our own life.As we travel through our lifetime, we may be taught hard lessons that others dont have to face, while others spend years struggling with problems we dont need to deal with. We may never know why we love English, not physics, which indicates that our path is different. While

31、traveling on our own path, sometimes alone, we should, first of all, take a basic lesson in openness.Openness means being receptive. Life will present us with so many lessons, none of which are useful to us unless we can recognize them and are open to their values. These lessons arc not easy to lear

32、n, but we should regard them as gifts. But how can we recognize these lessons? It is a matter of what “glasses” we are wearing at the time. It is not difficult to spot them if we take them as opportunities. So when we are not open to learning our lessons, failing a weekly English test might be like

33、a disaster rather than an opportunity to us. Of course, the hard lessons may not be fun, but they can actually be the biggest gifts we receive from life.1、The author may be in favor of the viewpoint that all men are born .Aequal BdifferentCto learn lessons Dready for challenge2、The example of “we lo

36、e as Googles self-driving car project, announced that it had let its driverless cars loose in parts of Phoenix, Arizona, with nobody in the front seats to take over in case of emergency. Members of the public taking part in a Waymo trial in the desert city in the south-west US will be able to order

37、the vehicles to come through an app “in the next few months”, the group said.Potentially one of the most revolutionary (革命性的) new technologies, as well as one of the most advertised, driverless cars have been at the centre of a race between big automakers and technology companies. But while a number

38、 of groups are testing the technology on the streets with back-up drivers behind the wheel, most believe the approach of full autonomy is at least two years away.Google shocked the auto industry when it first showed a basic version of its driverless technology seven years ago, and it then invested m

39、ore than $ l bn in autonomous vehicle research.Rivals (竞争对手) admit it still has a technology lead, though skeptics question whether the artificial intelligence is good enough to respond to the many unforeseen events that could occur on the road.Waymo believes it is the first company to reach a stand
