of Britain with 22 aerial victories over the Germans.He was an inspiration to others during the war.He said,"Don't listen to anyone who tells you that you can't do this or that.That's nonsense.Make up your mind and you'll never use crutches or a stick and then have a go at everything.Go to school,and join in all the games you can.Go anywhere you want to.But never,never let them persuade you that things are too difficult or impossible."

A.Different attitudes towards misfortune B.Face difficulties with a smile C.Nothing is impossible D.Life is full of adversity 答案B 解析标题归纳题。通读全文可知，作者将骑自行车经过山地视为锻炼的机会并通过Helen Keller和Douglas Bader的故事说明，成功的关键是直面困难的积极态度。故B项最能概括 主题。 C A storm progresses through four different stages before it is actually considered a hurricane..First is a tropical disturbance(热带扰动)，which has thunderstorms and rotating(旋转) winds.Next is a tropical depression(热带低气压)，which is similar to a tropical disturbance,but has winds between 23 and 39 miles per hour.A tropical storm is the next level,which has stronger

wind speeds between 40 and 73 miles per hour.Once winds reach 74 miles per hour,the storm is officially called a hurricane.The wind picks up energy from the warm surface ocean water. As a hurricane crosses over land it begins to become weaker or break apart and reduce in strength.This is because it is no longer over the warm ocean water that it needs for energy.At this point,a hurricane can still cause a lot of damage because of high winds,rain,and flooding.But unless it makes its way back over the open ocean,it is downgraded from a hurricane back to a tropical storm. What's your name,Hurricane?Hurricanes and tropical storms are given names to help people recognise them.Scientists refer to hurricanes and storms by name as they track them across the ocean. Before 1953,hurricanes were not given official names.From 1953 through 1978,hurricanes were only given female names,like Isabel,Camille,Claudette,and Wilma.Beginning in 1979,hurricanes were given the names of both women and men.Today,the names alternate male and female,and they are named in order of letters. For example,in 2010.storms were named as follows:Alex(male).Bonnie (female).Colin (male).Danielle (female).Earl (male)and so on... There are six different lists of names,so the same names are used every six years.The only way that a new name is added is when a hurricane has been particularly deadly or costly and the name is retired,and then replaced with a new one. 28.Which of the following is the right order of stages of a hurricane? A.Tropical depression,tropical disturbance,tropical storm,hurricane. B.Tropical disturbance,tropical depression,tropical storm,hurricane. C.Tropical storm,tropical depression,tropical disturbance,hurricane D.Tropical storm.tropical disturbance,tropical depression,hurricane 答案B 解析细节理解题。根据文章第一段的“A storm progresses through four different stages before it is actually considered a hurricane.First is a tropical disturbance...Next is a tropical depression...A tropical storm is the next level...Once winds reach 74 miles per hour,the storm is officially called a hurricane.”可知，飓风形成的四个阶段依次为tropical disturbance,tropical depression,.tropical storm,hurricane.。故选B项。 29.What happens when a hurricane crosses over land? A.It breaks apart and forms tornadoes. B.It returns to the ocean afterwards C.It moves more quickly. D.It becomes less powerful 答案D 解析细节理解题。根据文章第二段的第一句“As a hurricane crosses over land,it begins to become weaker or break apart and reduce in strength.”可知，当飓风越过陆地时，它开始变弱，或 者解体并减弱强度。故选D项。 30.The underlined word“alternate”in paragraph4 means“ A.take turns between B.carry on C.come from D.cause trouble to 答案A 解析词义猜测题。根据文章第五段For example,in2010,storms were named as follows:Alex (male),Bonnie(female),Colin(male),Danielle(female),Earl(male)and so on..”可知，风暴的名字 是按照字母顺序交替选取男名和女名。此段在画线单词所在的句子之后，举例解释了画线单 词所在句子的含义，由此可推测画线单词意为“在…之间交替”。故选A项。 31.What do we know about the hurricanes? A.Six common hurricane names are often used. B.An old name will be replaced every year. C.Most of them are deadly and costly. D.They didn't have official names until 1953. 答案D

解析推理判断题。由文章第四段的第一句Before 1953,hurricanes were not given official names.”可知，l953年以前，爬风没有正式的名称。故选D项。 You get anxious if there's no wi-fi in the hotel or mobile phone signal up the mountain.You feel upset if your phone is getting low on power and you secretly worry things will go wrong at work if you're not there.All these can be called"always on"stress caused by smartphone addiction. For some people,smartphones have liberated them from the nine-to-five work.Flexible working has given them more autonomy in their working lives and enabled them to spend more time with their friends and families.For many others though.smartphones have become cruel masters in their pockets,never allowing them to turn them off and relax. Pittsburgh-based developer Kevin Holesh was worried about how much he was ignoring his family and friends in favor of his cell phone.So he developed an app to monitor his usage.The app enables users to see how much time they're spending on the device and set up warnings if the usage limits are broken."The app's goal is to promote balance in your life,"he explains."Some time on your phone,some time off it enjoying your loving family and friends around you." Dr Christine Grant,an occupational psychologist at Coventry University,said,"The effects of this 'always on'culture are that your mind is never resting,and you're not giving your body time to recover,so you're always stressed.And the more tired and stressed we get,the more mistakes we make.Physical and mental health can suffer." And as the number of connected smartphones is increasing,so is the amount of data.This is leading to a sort of decision paralysis()and is creating more stress in the workplace because people have to receive a broader range of data and communications which are often difficult to manage."It actually makes it more difficult to make decisions and many do less because they're controlled by it all and feel they can never escape the office,"said Dr Christine Grant. 32.What's the first paragraph mainly about? A.The popularity of smartphones. B.The progress of modern technology C.The signs of“always on'”stress.. D.The cause of smartphone addiction 答案C 解析段落大意题。根据第一段中的最后一句话可知，这一段主要介绍了人们因过分依赖手机 而产生了“always on'”stress,.以及这种压力的具体表现形式。故选C项。 33.Kevin Holesh developed an app to A.research how people use their mobile phones B.help people control their use of mobile phones C.make people better use mobile phones D.increase the fun of using mobile phones 答案B 解析细节理解题。根据第三段中的“So he developed an app to monitor his usage.The app enables users to see how much time they're spending on the device and set up warnings if the usage limits are broken.”可知，这种应用软件可以监控人们使用手机的时间，如果人们使用手机 时间过长，它就会发出警报，提醒人们注意，以此来帮人们控制使用手机的时间。故选B项。 34.What's Dr Christine Grant's attitude towards"always on"culture? A.Confused B.Positive.
