You may have seen photos and videos of broken windows, falling trees and heavy rain on the internet. They were caused by Typhoon Mangkhut (台风山竹), the strongest typhoon to hit China this year.

On Sept 15, Mangkhut landed on the coast (海岸) of Jiangmen in Guangdong province, with wind speeds of 162 kilometers per hour. Till Sept 18, five people were killed and over 1.6 million people had to evacuate. More than 5,500 houses were broken . Schools in the areas were closed as well.

One of the causes of all the powerful storms this year may be climate change. Hurricanes(飓风) and typhoons are actually the same thing – they are both tropical cyclones(热带气旋). Temperature(温度) changes cause them to form on the sea.

Because of global(全球)warming, ocean temperatures are rising and tropical cyclones are forming with more energy and strength. Experts say that strong storms like these ones will become more common in future, the South China Morning Post said.

43. The underlined word “evacuate” in the passage means “_________” in Chinese. A. 逃跑 B.死亡 C. 撤离 D. 受伤 44. What’s the fundamental (根本) cause of Typhoon Mangkhut? A. Tropical cyclones. B. Global warming. C. Temperature changes. D.

Hurricanes. 45. We can read this passage most probably(可能) in a _________. A. magazine B. newspaper C. novel D. video

In 1976, Steve Jobs and his friend Steve Wozniak started Apple Computers. When Steve got his first order, he didn't have enough money to buy parts to make the computers.

But Steve came up with an idea. He went to an electronic(电子的) supply store. He persuaded(说服) the store to give him the parts to make the computers. Steve couldn't pay for the parts right then. But he promised to pay the store back later. Steve was very good at persuading people to do what he asked. The store said yes.

Each Apple computer cost $220 to make. Each Apple computer was sold to the electronics store for $500. So even after Steve and Woz paid back the electronic supply store, they made a very big profit(利润).

Steve and Woz knew they could do better. What if they made a computer that came with everything, so a person could just take it out of the box and use it right away? He and Woz got to work on making such a computer — Apple II.

Woz and Steve wanted to make the most beautiful computer in the world. At the time, plastic was much more expensive than metal or wood. But Steve thought plastic looked cool and modern. And how a computer looked was important. If it looked good, people would want it. 46. What was the problem of Steve Jobs? A. He couldn't sell his expensive computers. B. He didn't have money to start a company.

C. He couldn't find a store to buy computer parts. D. He didn't have money to buy computer parts. 47. We can infer(推断) from the passage that _________.

What subject do you worry about the most at school? Many students worry about math. Some students can’t sleep well the day before a math exam. Others may feel very nervous during the exam itself. But there might be a way to make the subject less stressful(有压力的).

That’s right — sitting up straight can help you do better on math exams.

Scientists tested 125 college students. They asked them to do a simple math text while sitting in a slumped-over (趴倒的) position, or sitting up straight. After the test, 56%of students said the exam was easier to do if they were sitting up straight.

Slumping over is a defensive posture(防御姿势). It can cause negative (消极的) memories in the body and brain. This can stop you from thinking clearly, Peper said.

Students who were good at math did not necessarily benefit(有益于) from better posture. But they did find that doing math while slumped over was more difficult, Science Daily reported.

Good posture isn’t just helpful for taking math exams. Players, musicians and public speakers can all benefit from better posture. When you feel worried, you can also try to sit up straight or stand tall. It can help you feel more positive(积极的) and do better. 49. What posture(姿势) can make people feel less stressed during math exams? A. Lying on your back. B. Putting your head on your desk. C. Sitting up straight. D. Raising one hand. 50. What did the 125 college students do while they were taking the exam? A. Doing sit-ups. B. Sitting in different positions. C. Thinking carefully. D. Counting numbers. 51. What can we learn from the fifth paragraph ? A. Slumping over is more difficult for many students. B. Everyone should benefit from better posture in math exams. C. Good students should slump over when they have math exams.

D. Different postures mean different results of the same math exam. 52. What’s the best title of the passage? A. Sit up to do math B. Slump over C. Nervous students D. Feel more positive 五、任务型阅读(共5小题;每小题1分, 满分5分)

阅读下面短文,在表格内的空白处填入合适的答案(每格限填一词)。

Many of us pay little attention to the importance of eye care. It is said that if you take care of your body, then you can surely be healthy. That is why our eyes should be given a lot of care. Natural eye care should be put in a number one place.

There are several causes leading to poor eyesight like not enough food, genes(基因) and aging(变老). Televisions, computers and reading are also the causes of having poor eyesight. If you work in front of the computer, it is best to take a break every once in a while. Something dirty can cause redness and they will make you feel uncomfortable. It is bad for your eyes, too. If this happens, you’d better clean your eyes with cold water. You must also try your best to protect your eyes from harmful things. For example, sunglasses are not just for fashion but they can also serve as a great way to protect your eyesight from UV rays.

Eating healthy foods will do good to your eyesight. Remember that vitamins A, C and E are good for eyes. Try to eat food groups that have these vitamins. And you should do eye exercises because exercise protects your eyesight, too. If a person exercises regularly and eats the right kind of food, his eyes will stay in good condition for a long time.

All above are natural ways of eye care that help us keep healthy eyes. In a word, eye care is very important, no matter how old a person is.
