1．Doctors are known to be terrible pilots.They don't listen because they already know it all.I was lucky：I became a pilot in 1970，almost ten years before I graduated from medical school.I didn't realize then，but becoming a pilot makes me a better surgeon.I loved flying.As I flew bigger，faster planes，and in worse weather，I learned about crew resource management（機組資源管理），or CRM，a new idea to make flying safer.It means that crew members should listen and speak up for a good result，regardless of positions.
I first read about CRM in 1980.Not long after that，an attending（主治的） doctor and I were flying in bad weajye.air.The controller had us turn too late to get our landing ready.The attending doctor was flying；I was safety pilot.He was so busy because of the bad turn，he had forgotten to put the landing gear（起落架） down.He was a better pilot —and my boss — so it felt unusual to speak up.But I had to：our lives were in danger.I put aside my uneasiness and said， "We need to put the landing gear down now!" That was my first real lesson in the power of CRM，and I've used it in operating room ever since.
CRM requires that the pilot / surgeon encourage others to speak up.It further requires that when opinions are from the opposite，the doctor doesn't overreact，which might prevent fellow doctor from voicing opinions again.So when I'm in the operating room，I ask for ideas and help from others.Sometimes they're not willing to speak up.But I hope that if I continue to encourage them，someday someone will keep me from "landing gear up".
（1）The author deepened his understanding of the power of CRM when.
A．he saved the plane by speaking up
B．he was in charge of a flying task
C．his boss landed the plane too late
D．his boss operated on a patient
（2）In the last paragraph "landing gear up" probably means.
A．following flying requirements
B．overreacting to different opinions
C．listening to what fellow doctors say
D．making a mistake that may cost lives
（3）Which of the following can be the best title for the text？
A．CRM：A New Way to Make Flying Safe
B．Flying Makes Me a Better Doctor
C．The Making of a Good Pilot
D．A Pilot — Turned Doctor組卷：1引用：1難度：0.5 -
2．When faced with the decision to get out of bed or have a few more minutes of sleep，which do you choose？Believe it or not，that decision could make a world of difference in the rest of your day.
About 85 percent of Americans use an alarm clock to wake up in the mornings，according to sleep researcher Till Roen.And while there are no official numbers on snoozing（打盹），a quick survey of social media makes it clear that hitting the snooze button is a popular pastime（消遣）.
As to how the snooze button will affect your day，scientists have mixed opinions.Some scientists think people who hit the snooze button in the mornings are actually clever，creative and happy while some said that hitting the snooze button will ruin your life，or at the very least your day. "I feel that hitting the snooze button has got to be one of the worst things that ever happened to human sleep，" researcher Jonathan Horowitz said. "The chances of you 'snoozing' and actually experiencing a meaningful rest are close to zero."
According to some sleep experts，when hitting the snooze button，you are in fact confusing your body and mind，and throwing yourself into a deep state of being sleepy.The body needs some time to wake up.Therefore，when returning to what will be a light sleep for a brief period of time，you are putting your body back into a sleep mode before waking it again.At that point your body won't know what it wants，resulting in a sort of half awaken state.
If you really want to take advantage of an alarm clock，the key is to form a healthy sleep cycle.Focus your efforts on getting enough sleep each night and waking up at the same time each day so that when your alarm goes off you feel rested.
（1）What can we infer about hitting the snooze button from Paragraph 2？
A．People do it just for fun.
B．It is a common practice.
C．People take it seriously.
D．It is a bit childish.
（2）What do some sleep experts think of hitting the snooze button？
A．It is meaningful in the long term.
B．It makes people become lazy.
C．It brings us a sense of satisfaction.
D．It affects our body and mind.
（3）What's the author's suggestion on getting the best out of alarms？
A．Making use of willpower.
B．Trying to relax ourselves.
C．Developing a good sleep habit.
D．Using an extra alarm.
（4）What is the purpose of the text？
A．To introduce ways to keep refreshed in the morning.
B．To explain the relationship between the snooze button and people's character.
C．To discuss whether people should hit the snooze button.
D．To illustrate how to avoid the light sleep mode.組卷：6引用：3難度：0.5 -
3．Turtles have a problem.They are delicious.And so are their eggs.That has led to the eggs of marine turtles being poached（偷獵）.
To deal with the problem Kim Williams-Guillén and Helen Pheasey of the University of Kent，have come up with a handy gadget（小裝置）.It is a global-positioning-system （GPS） transmitter（發射機） enclosed in a plastic shell made by 3 D printing.The result looks like a turtle's egg and weighs about the same.Dug up and carried away by poachers，it can lead the police to those poachers' bases of operation.
As they report this week in Current Biology，Dr Williams-Guillén and Dr Pheasey have now tested their invention in Costa Rica.They placed a decoy（誘餌） egg into each of 101 turtle nests on four beaches where poaching is a problem.The decoys remained inactive until their shells were exposed to the air.At that moment — presumed to signal the arrival of poachers — the "egg" in question starts broadcasting its location once an hour.
In all，25 of the decoys were poached.They told different stories.Some travelled just a few kilometres，with one ending up at a bar 2km away from the nest it was taken from，where its signal abruptly ended.Others went quite a distance.One，for example，was carried 137km inland，to a supermarket.
To make sure that they，themselves，were not harming what they were intending to protect，the researchers monitored all of the decoy-loaded nests which had survived the attentions of poachers and compared these nests' outputs of hatchlings（剛孵化的幼龜） with those of 44 other surviving nests that had no decoy in them.Both sorts of nest had the same hatching rates，suggesting that adding a decoy did not affect the development of the eggs it was hidden among.
Given the success of their project，Dr Williams-Guillén and Dr Pheasey propose that the idea should be used more widely for turtles.They also suggest that similar decoys might help protect the eggs of other endangered reptiles — and birds — that are collected and traded illegally.
（1）What is the purpose of the new invention？
A．To make man-made turtle eggs.
B．To track the poachers of turtle eggs.
C．To prevent poachers harming turtle eggs.
D．To locate turtle eggs and send signals.
（2）What do we know about the decoy eggs that researchers have tested？
A．About a quarter of them were poached.
B．They appeared different from real turtle eggs.
C．Their shells would break if exposed to the air.
D．They gave warnings about approaching poachers.
（3）What do Dr Williams-Guillén and Dr Pheasey think of their invention？
A．It may cause widespread damage to turtle eggs.
B．It will help raise people's environmental awareness.
C．It can be applied to more wildlife conservation fields.
D．It needs further improvement before being put into practice.
（4）What is the best title for the text？
A．Decoy Eggs Can Help Turtle Eggs Survive the Attention of Poachers
B．Researchers Propose a New Idea to Save Poached Turtle Eggs
C．GPS Will Update Researchers on the Developments of Turtle Eggs
D．A New Device May Help Stop the Robbery of Turtle Eggs組卷：3引用：1難度：0.5

4．If ever we have to wait for something in the UK — for the bus，to get into a concert，or to get into a shop，we form a queue（隊伍）.Everybody knows that when you roll up，you join the back of the queue. （1）
It is an absolutely fair system and we all agree with it.British people would never dream of "jumping the queue"!
（2）If you are seen to push in，it is considered very rude.People think pushing in is unfair to other people who have been waiting.So，if you see a line of people and you are not sure about it，then ask， "Is this the back of the queue？"（3）You might even get chatting!Brits are happy to chat while queuing.
If ever somebody pushes in，you can almost find others upset about him or her!People will be silently angry!However，rarely will anybody say anything. （4）If somebody does say something to the rule breaker，the rest of the people in the queue will be very embarrassed and they will look away.
（5）For example，they may give bad looks to the transgressor（違規者）.They may also turn around and talk about the transgressor in a whisper with the person next to them in the queue.You would need a skin as thick as that of a rhinoceros（犀牛） to miss these signals that you have transgressed a sacred British rule.So，if you come to the UK，get used to queuing.
A.People do not welcome queue-jumping in England.
B.You have to wait for your turn in the queue.
C.Queue-jumping can be seen everywhere in the world.
D.British people do not like to cause a scene by arguing.
E.Some people want to break the accepted rule sometimes.
F.People will be very polite to you and let you know where you should stand.
G.People will show that they are annoyed，but in ways that are not easy to notice.組卷：2引用：2難度：0.5

18．The rude boy James Selton was one of the rudest boys in the village.He would rarely pass people in the street without being guilty of some sort of abuse.
If a person were well dressed he would cry out， "Dandy!" If a person's clothes were dirty or torn，he would throw stones at him，and annoy him in every way.
One afternoon，just as the school was dismissed，a stranger passed through the village.His dress was plain and somewhat old，but neat and clean.He carried a cane（手杖） in his hand，on the end of which was a bundle，and he wore a broad-brimmed hat.No sooner did James see the stranger than he winked to his playmates and then silently went toward the stranger from behind，and knocking off his hat，ran away.The man turned and saw him，but James was out of hearing before he could speak.
The stranger put on his hat，and went on his way.James approached again；but this time，the man caught him by the arm，and held him fast.However，he contented himself with looking James a moment in the face，and then pushed him from himself.
No sooner did the naughty boy find himself free again than he began to toss the stranger with dirt and stones.The man was struck on the head by a brick，and badly hurt.All the boys now ran away and James escaped across the fields to his home.
As he drew near the house，his sister Caroline came out to meet him，holding up a beautiful gold chain and some new books for him to see.She told James that their uncle，who had been away several years，had come and brought beautiful presents for the whole family.He had left his carriage at the hotel，a mile or two off，and walked on foot，so as to surprise his brother，their father.
