When Beverly Goodman was in elementary school, she gave a series of presentations on her favorite topic: disasters. She told her classmates about some disasters in history, for instance, the Titanic. Today, at 45, she's a marine geoarchaeologist (地理考古学家) who explores coastlines for clues to erosion, past tsunamis (海啸), and other disasters. 'It's funny now that I'm a disaster scientist, basically," she says. "It all came together."

Human settlements have long been built around access to water. Goodman studies how coastal change affected our ancestors: Were people forced to leave? Did they find innovative ways to adapt to the changes? This knowledge, she says, can help us "prepare responsibly for what this landscape is going to look like in the future." That was the case when Goodman and her team of scientists proved tsunamis had struck the coast of what is now Israel over the course of thousands of years. Partly as a result of their research, the country in 2014 developed its first tsunami preparedness plan.

Humans are manipulating coastlines more dramatically than ever, says Goodman. To learn what effect this will have, "we need to be working faster, and we need more people working on it."She believes ancient clues buried underwater can save lives, particularly in places without written records.

41.When Goodman was a little girl, she might be interested in_________.

（A）landscapes

（B）art and literature

（C）science and technology

（D）disasters in history

42.According to the passage, her present job_________.

（A）is a disaster for her

（B）is well-known to ordinary people

（C）is closely related to her childhood interest

（D）has nothing to do with her childhood hobbies

43.It can be learned from Paragraph Two that_________.

（A）where there is water, there are human beings

（B）people usually settled down along waters

（C）people prefer to live in muontains areas

（D）people prefer to live along grasslands

44.According to Goodman, which of the following in true?

（A）People need to pay more attention to coastline research.

（B）People show little interest in coastlines.

（C）People have no knowledge about coastlines.

（D）People have no written records about coastlines.

45.The best title of this passage could be"_________".

（A）The Changes of the World

（B）The Coastal Landscape

（C）Life Style of Ancient Ancestors

（D）Goodman's Underwater Research

One of the most common reasons why people don't succeed at introducing a permanent exercise habit in their lives is because their workouts are boring. They do the same things over and over again, and even if they work in the beginning, the body quickly adapts to them and stops responding to them in the same way as in the beginning.

When the effectiveness drops down and a person gets tired of doing the same thing, the outcome is predictable: you no longer want to work out any more.

That's why I'm so strongly against any kind of structured fitness classes at the gym that you attend because you think it's the only way to exercise.

Seek something enjoyable and exciting that won't feel like dreadful exercise, if you can't find it, keep looking until you do. Ultimately, it's the only way to successfully maintain an exercise habit in your life.

However, please note that even if you're doing something exciting, no matter how fantastic it is in the beginning, if you don't change your routine every now and then, it also might get boring. Mixing it up every now and then by focusing on a different aspect of the activity, doing it in a different place, with different intensity or with different people will boost your excitement, shock your body, and ensure that you'll stick to physical activity for the long haul.

47.Why do people fail to develop a good exercise habit? Because_________.

（A）people usually get bored of the same exercise

（B）the exercises are tough to perform

（C）people are too busy with their work

（D）there are lots of interesting exercises

48.What might happen if people do the same exercise too many times?

（A）They might get excited.

（B）They might stop doing it.

（C）They might easily get hungry.

（D）They might lose their temper.

49.The author's attitude toward structured fitness classes is_________.

（A）supportive

（B）appreciative

（C）neutral

（D）negative

50.According to the passage, which of the following helps develop a lifetime exercise habit?

（A）Attending gym classes.

（B）Joining a sports club.

（C）Keeping notes of your exercises.

（D）Trying enjoyable and exciting exercises.

51.If you would like to keep a routine exercise lifelong, you'd better NOT____

（A）do it in a different place

（B）do it on a regular basis

（C）do it with different intensity

（D）do it with different people

Everyone knows that the average human body temperature is 37°C—but everyone is wrong. It turns out that the bodies of people in the US have been cooling since the 1860s.

Physicians studying body temperature have known for decades that 37°C was too high, says Julie Parsonnet at Stanford University in California, "But they've always thought that it was just measurement error in the past, not because temperature had actually dropped."

To find out what really happened, Parsonnet and her team combined three data sets. The first set covered nearly 24,000 UnionArmyveterans (老兵) from the American Civil War, whose temperatures were measured between 1860 and 1940. The other two ranged from 1971 to 1975 and from 2007 to 2017. In total, the team analyzed more than 677,000 temperature measurements.

On average, US body temperature has declined by 0. 03°C per decade. Body temperatures of men born in the early 19th century were 0.59°C higher than those of men today. Women's average temperature has dropped by 0.32°C compared with that of women born in the 1890s. That means average body temperature today is about 36.6°C , not 37 C as it is widely thought.

The change isn't simply the result of older thermometers(温度计)being unreliable. We know this because the cooling trend is visible within the more modern data sets, in which the thermometers were probably more accurate.

"The most likely explanation in my view is that, microbiologically, we're very different people than we were," says Parsonnet. People have fewer infections, thanks to vaccines and antibiotics, so our immune systems are less active and our body tissues less inflamed(发炎).

53.The average human body temperature has been_________ since the 1860s.

（A）rising

（B）dropping

（C）turning up

（D）narrowing down

54.The word "it" (Line 2, Para. 2) refers to the fact that_________.

（A）37°C was too high

（B）37°C was too low

（C）37°C was irregular

（D）37°C was regular

55.According to Parsonnet and her team's research, which of the following is NOT true?

（A）Body temperatures of men born in the early 19th century were 0.59°C higher than those men of today.

（B）Women's average temperature has fallen by 0.32°C compared with that of women born in the 1890s.

（C）US body temperature has declined by 0.03°C for decades on average.

（D）The average body temperature today is lower than 37°C.

56.It is less likely for people to get infected because of_________.

（A）climate changes

（B）environment pollution

（C）vaccines and antibiotics

（D）better thermometers

57.It could be concluded from the passage that_________.

（A）we are getting cooler as body temperature falls

（B）we are getting warmer as body temperature falls

（C）we are getting cooler as body temperature rises

（D）we are getting warmer as body temperature rises

Being a female tree is hard. A study of a species that can change sex has revealed that most striped maple trees die while female.

"We had a suspicion they were changing sex, which is relatively rare among plants." says Jemnifer Blake-Mahmud at Princeton University. Between 2014 and 2017, she and Lena Struwe at Rutgers University in New Jersey observed the life cycles of 457 striped maples in New Jersey, recording their health, diameter and whether they had female or male flowers each spring.

They found that 54 percent of the trees changed sex during that time, and one fourth of those did so at least twice. A model based on these findings showed that, contrary to previous suggestions, healthy trees were more likely to be male and a tree's size doesn't influence its sex.

The growth rate of trees that remained female for many years declined. Of the trees that died, 75 percent had recently produced female flowers. "It's remarkable," says Blake-Mahmud. "When I see a tree that's dead and I look back in my datasheet, it was almost always female the year before."

It isn't clear why this is the case. It could be that female trees need more nutrients because they produce seeds, and it may increase the death rate of female trees, she says.

But it could also be that dying trees become female as a last effort to create offspring and pass their genes on to the next generation.

"These populations have a lot more male trees than female trees in general, so just by luck, a female has a better chance of being a parent of the next generation than a male," says Blake-Mahmud. "If you're going to die anyway, then being female is the way to go. That would make more evolutionary sense."

59.Which factor mentioned in the passage does NOT influence the striped maple trees' sex?

（A）Health.

（B）Size.

（C）Season.

（D）Age.

60.The word "declined"(Line 1,Para.4) is closest in meaning to_________.

（A）got worse

（B）died away

（C）went down

（D）wore out

61.Female maple trees need more nutrients because_________.

（A）they create offspring

（B）they change their sex

（C）they are less healthy

（D）there are fewer female trees

62.What can be inferred from the last paragraph?

（A）Healthy maple trees are more likely to be female.

（B）Dying maple trees are more likely to be male.

（C）Female maple trees are less likely to be parents.

（D）Sex changing could be the natural life process of the maple trees.

63.What's the best title of the passage?

（A）Female Maple Trees More Likely to Die

（B）A Contrast of Female and Male Maple Trees

（C）Relationships between Female and Male Maple Trees

（D）Differences between Female and Male Maple Trees

Many dog owners who talk to their dogs are convinced that their words are being understood. It【C1】________they may be right. A study at Emory University has found that dogs have a【C2】________understanding of words, are able to distinguish words they have heard【C3】________from those they haven't, and are【C4】________to try to understand what is being said to them.

They found【C11】________there was more activation in the auditory (听觉的) regions of the dogs' brains when they reacted【C12】________the novel words, suggesting that they sensed that【C13】________owners wanted them to understand【C14】________they were saying, and were 【C15】________to do so.

"We expected to see that dogs neutrally discriminate【C16】________words that they know and words that they【C17】________,"said researcher Ashley Prichard, a PhD candidate in Emory University's department of psychology. "What's surprising is that the result is【C18】________ to that of research on humans—people【C19】________show greater neural activation for known words【C20】________novel words."
