Queen Elizabeth is known for her devotion to her country, her close relationships with her family and, most importantly, her corgis.
Unfortunately, over the weekend she lost the last of her royal corgis, Willow. According to The Daily Mail, the 15-year-old dog had to be put to death after suffering a cancer-related illness. This marks the first time that the 91-year-old Queen is without a corgi in the royal household since World War Ⅱ.
In 2015, Monty Roberts, the Queen’s dog trainer, shared some details with Vanity Fair about her pets. Roberts encouraged Queen Elizabeth to continue breeding (繁殖) corgis, but, in her old age, she didn’t want to leave any young dog behind. She did, however, adopt a full-grown Corgi named Whisper in 2017, after its owner, who was a gatekeeper at the palace, died.
It was also said that Queen Elizabeth was worried she’d trip over the dogs playing at her feet. It was a pretty real fear. Former royal staff Paul Burrell claimed that he was once tripped by nine corgis while walking them down the steps at the palace.
Willow was a dog with equally blue blood, although she never found social media stardom. It was a 14th-generation child of Susan, the corgi who was gifted to Elizabeth on her 18th birthday by her father, King George Ⅵ.
One of Willow’s most memorable moments was posing with James Bond at the 2012 London Olympics. Holly, Queen’s another corgi, also starred in the video, but she passed away more than a year ago, at the age of 13.
This is truly the end of an era, as Queen Elizabeth has owned more than 30 corgis throughout her life. At one point, she had 13 at once.
“She was sad for each loss of her corgis over the years, but she has been particularly upset about Willow’s death,” a Buckingham Palace source told The Daily Mail. “It is probably because Willow was the last link to her parents and a pastime that goes back to her own childhood.”
4. What happened to Willow over the weekend according to The Daily Mail
A. It was killed in a car accident. B. It was put to death.
C. It had an unsuccessful operation. D. It was found to have cancer.
5. Why did Queen Elizabeth stop breeding corgis according to Monty Roberts
A. She was too weak to take care of the dogs.
B. She became tired of those crazy little dogs.
C. She was afraid that she’d trip over the dogs.
D. She was worried about the dogs after her death.
6. What do the underlined words “blue blood” in paragraph 5 probably mean
A. Noble ancestor. B. Bad mood.
C. Cold heart. D. Terrible disease.
7. What does Willow probably mean for Queen Elizabeth
A. The end of an era. B. Her control over the country.
C. A tie with her parents. D. The hardship in her childhood.

China announced a long-awaited plan to integrate(融合) the southern Pearl River Delta Area(PRDA) as an attempt to create a powerhouse to rival(相匹敌) the US Silicon Valley that is home to such well-known companies as Google, Facebook and Apple. The possibilities and challenges of the effort are both equally promising and challenging.
The plan is a natural result of the economic and technological development in the area. China’s opening up to the world more than four decades ago began in the south and PRDA has long been home to many of the country’s leading technological companies. includin, Huawei and Tencent.
“The plan is promising,” said Adam Xu, an analyst at OC & C Strategy Consultants. “If you really look at history in China, a lot of top-down plans always have very strong bottom-up support. And a lot of economic activities have already happened there. Now they have a big plan to officially recognize, promote and further accelerate.”
The key challenge will be execution(执行). The plan has to integrate three different legal systems among Mainland China, Hongkong and Macau. That makes PRDA unique compared to the other two major areas in China—the Beijing, Hebei, Tianjin Area and the Yangtze River Delta Area near Shanghai.
“We don’t know how effectively the top-down plan will guide the many independent growing forces at the local level,” Xu admitted. “This part will be quite an important challenge.”
China has already taken major steps to overcome some of the physical barriers such as linking Hongkong with Guangzhou and Shenzhen by high-speed railways and its recent opening of the 55-kilometer Hongkong-Zhuhai-Macau bridge. But other barriers, such as the flow of people, information and money, may prove to be a bigger challenge.
Xu said, “The biggest challenge and the biggest beauty—if they eventually succeed—will be linking all of these together.”
8. What are paragraph 2 and paragraph 3 mainly about
A. The favorable conditions in PRDA.
B. The benefits of top-down plans in China.
C. PRDA’s advantages over the Silicon Valley.
D. The flow of people. information and money.
9. Which challenge is unique in the Pearl River Delta Area
A. The physical barriers. B. The cultural differences.
C. The government control. D. The different legal systems.
10. Which of the following cities are connected by the 55-kilometer bridge
A. Shenzhen, Zhuhai, Macau. B. Guangzhou, Shenzhen, Macau.
C. Zhuhai, Macau, Hongkong. D. Guangzhou, Shenzhen, Hongkong.
11. What is the best title for the text
A. The Different Legal Systems in Hongkong and Macau
B. The Possibilities and Challenges of Integrating PRDA
C. The Problems Facing China’s Newly Announced Plans
D. The Fast Development in the Pearl River Delta Area

A new study published in Thursday’s edition of Cell reports that mosquitoes’ sense of smell is more complex than we once thought. And it may explain how they are so good at seeking us out in the darkness and lead to new strategies to fight against the potentially deadly diseases caused by their bites.
Until Meg Younger, co-author of the study, and her colleagues started studying mosquitoes, it’s long been known that mosquitoes rely on multiple clues to target humans, First, they will sense the CO2 in the breath from a distance that can be more than 30 feet. After the CO2, then they begin to sense human body smells. They follow the odors(气味) and, when they get very close, start to detect body heat. Once they land on the skin, they look for a place to bite with their legs.
In many parts of the world, their bites may lead to such diseases as dengue, Zika, chikungunya and malaria. The latter disease alone causes over half a million deaths each year around the globe.
“But most of what we know about mosquitoes’ sense of smell comes from the study of the brains of mice and fruit flies, where the pathways between the brain and smell detectors are fairly simple: Each neuron(神经元) in their smell detectors just responds to a single kind of smell and all the neurons for that smell are connected to the same part of their brains. Of course, there are countless different detectors responding to countless smells,” says Younger. “When we started looking inside mosquito brains, we found that each neuron can detect multiple smells.”
“It’s a great breakthrough,” says Josefina del Marmol, a scientist at the Harvard Medical School who wasn’t involved with the research. “It will change a lot about what we know of how mosquitoes interact with the world and give researchers additional ways to fight the bugs. But there’s more work to be done to test, neuron by neuron, which neuron actually responds to which human body smells.”
12. What can be learned about mosquitoes from paragraph 2
A. They look for a place to bite with their eyes.
B. They can only detect humans within 30 feet.
C. They are first attracted by human body smells.
D. They are more sensitive to the CO2 in the breath.
13. Which disease causes more than 0.5 million deaths each year in the world
A. Malaria. B. Zika. C. Dengue. D. Chikungunya.
14. What is Meg Younger’s new discovery
A The pathways in the brains of mice are fairly simple.
B. A neuron in mosquitoes’ detectors can detect many smells.
C. All the neurons for a smell are connected to the same part of the brain.
D. The neurons in fruit flies’ brains just respond to a single kind of smell.
15. What does Josefina del Marmol say about the new study
A. The process is not very complete. B. The conclusion is not very reliable.
C. More specific tests have to be done. D. The research method is too complex.

47. 阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。
When I was in seventh grade, my parents paid forty dollars a week for a tutor to come to my house and help me with math, which ended up raising my mark from fifty to fifty-five. OK, maybe it was partly my fault. Maybe I should have spent less time worrying about that important geography assignment and more time on math. But math is a tricky thing. And sitting down in a chair to work on confusing algebraic equations(代数方程) for two hours is a slow and painful process. Besides, people around tend to ask. “How’s your math this time ”
So I became afraid of anything to do with numbers. The thought of a teacher picking on me in class was terrifying. The red marking was like a component in a horror movie. It only got worse in ninth grade. Every report card I ever received was delivered with the comment: “Victoria needs to ask for assistance in class.” But I couldn’t tell my teachers the real reason why I didn’t ask for help: I didn’t want to be a fool. Every question I had was, in my opinion at the time, something that the entire class could understand but I couldn’t. So instead, I adopted the mindset of not caring about anything and concluding that everything would work out in the end.
It didn’t. After spending a semester not caring about homework and not trying on tests, still afraid of math and convinced that I would never succeed, my math teacher called one summer morning to tell me I would spend the next three weeks at school redoing the entire course so I could pass.
This news was met with sudden tears, and a loud “this can’t be happening to me!” That’s when it hit me. Why was I scared of a bunch of numbers, anyway Why did I barely study for tests because I had convinced myself I would never do well Who was this unconfident student and what happened to that determined and confident teenager I had once been
注意：1.续写词数应为150左右;
2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
I finally realized that I had let math take over my life.
________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
So I was off to three weeks of summer school, three hours of math each day.

However, what bothers me is that I can’t help logging in to video websites when studying with the computer. I always feel guilty afterwards. Could you tell me how you handle these distractions
Looking forward to your reply.

【答案】I finally realized that I had let math take over my life. I needed to talk about it with my parents. So after school, I took the courage to tell my parents the bad news, and they were silent. Trembling with fright, I waited for their blame. However, they encouraged me to have another try to take the three weeks of summer school . It was then that I determined to take math seriously.
So I was off to three weeks of summer school, three hours of math each day. During the three weeks, I turned to my math teacher for help and told him about my determination. My math teacher was happy that I finally decided to work hard on math.Thanks to his patient guidance and my devotion, I made great progress and was relieved of the fear of math. Finally, I made it to a good high school and a university. Now I’m a teacher and I’m grateful to my parents and my math teacher.
