Spanish people drink Coca Cola, wear blue jeans, watch Hollywood movies, listen to American music, and eat fast food, and they do these things every day.

12、I think that American movies are a good way to spread American culture because people are often influenced by what they see in the movies. Most of the programs and documentaries(记录片) we watch on TV are from America, and most of the movies we go to see are made in Hollywood.In the last few years, the

13、 government has tried to protect the Spanish movies. Now, in our cinemas, at least twenty percent of the movies which are shown must be from Spain or from other countries in Europe.American culture is a part of Spanish life now. Its certain that many things from America are as much a part of peoples

14、 lives as Spanish things. For example, Coca Cola is as familiar to everybody as any typical Spanish product. Ive known about Coca Cola for my whole life.However, its different with Western fast food. For example, I dont think McDonalds is as successful in Spain as it is in other countries. In my opi

15、nion, one of the reasons may be the lifestyle of the Spanish people, The Spanish people normally eat at home.On the other hand, maybe McDonalds hamburgers will eventually replace the famous Spanish tapas. Its true that in every city in Spain you can find a McDonalds, and it is more popular among the

16、 Spanish children than among the adults. In any case, its obvious that American culture is becoming more and more a part of our lives every day.1、From the first paragraph we can know that .Athe influence of America on Spain can be found everywhere.Bmost Spanish people dont like to listen to their ow

17、n music,Cfast food spreads from Spain to the United States.Dsome Spanish actors go to America to improve their acting skills.2、What plays an important part in the spreading of American culture in Spain?AAmerican novels.BHollywood movies.CMcDonald.DAmerican music.3、Why did the government set some rul

18、es for the films shown in Spain?ATo protect foreign culture in Spain.BTo earn more money from Spanish films.CTo limit the number of foreign movie.DTo unite European Communities.4、What do you think Spanish tapas might be?AThe name of a drink.BThe name of a restaurant.CA clothing brand.DA certain kind

19、 of food.22（8分） Many children are interested in dinosaurs (恐龙). If you have a child who loves dinosaurs, then here is some good news for you. There is an exhibition of dinosaurs at the Philip J. Currie Dinosaur Museum in Wembley, Albert AYou can plan a family road trip there. Give your child a surpr

20、ise and youll enjoy your time there as a family.Sitting just 19 kilometers west of Grande Prairie, the Philip J. Currie Dinosaur Museum was opened in 2015 and has collections that include fossils（化石）of sea animals, art works from different dinosaurs, a large family theater, as well as an outdoor dis

26、lly labeled by anthropologists（人类学家）. Descriptions like “Paleolithic(旧石器时代) Man”, “Neolithic(新石器时代) Man”, etc., neatly sum up whole periods. When the time comes for anthropologists to turn their attention to the twenty-first century, they will surely choose the label “Legless Man”. Histories of the

27、time will go something like this: “In the twenty-first century, people forgot how to use their legs. Men and women moved about in cars, buses and trains from a very early age. There were lifts in all large buildings to prevent people from walking. And the surprising thing is that they didnt use thei

28、r legs even when they went on holiday. They built cable railways, ski-lifts and roads to the top of every huge mountain. All the beauty spots on earth were ruined by the presence of large car parks.”The future history books might also record that we lost the right of using our eyes. In our hurry to

29、get from one place to another, we failed to see anything on the way. Air travel gives you a birds-eye view of the world or even less if the wing of the aircraft happens to get in your way. When you travel by car or train, the unclear picture of the countryside constantly slides over the window. When

30、 you mention the most impressive place-names in the world, the typical 21st century traveler always says “Ive been there.”meaning “I drove through it at 100 miles an hour on the way to somewhere else.”When you travel at high speeds, the present means nothing: you live mainly in the future because yo

31、u spend most of your time looking forward to arriving at some other place. But actual arrival, when it is achieved, is meaningless. You want to move on again. By traveling like this, you skip all experience. The traveler on foot, on the other hand, lives in the present. For him traveling and arrivin

32、g are one and the same thing: he arrives somewhere with every step he makes. He experiences the present moment with his eyes, his ears and the whole of his body. At the end of his journey he feels a delicious physical tiredness. Satisfying sleep will be his: the just reward of all true travelers.1、A

33、nthropologists name man nowadays “Legless Man” because _.Apeople prefer cars, buses and trainsBpeople travel without using legsClifts prevent people from walkingDpeople use their legs less and less2、According to the passage, what might make people lose the right of using their eyes?AThe modern means

34、 of transportation. BA birds-eye view of the world.CThe unclear sight from the vehicles. DThe fast-paced life style.3、From the passage, we know traveling at high speeds means _.Aappreciating beautiful scenery Bexperiencing life skillsCfocusing on the next destination Dfeeling physical tiredness4、Wha

35、t does the author intend to tell us?AModern transportation devices have replaced legs.BTraveling makes the world a small place.CHumans history develops very fast.DThe best way to travel is on foot.24（8分）Like most of you, Ive grown up with science putting it into my head that eating Cholesterol (胆固醇)

36、 is bad for us. My doctor has scolded me repeatedly for liking high-cholesterol snacks. But now, after 40 years of giving cholesterol such a rap, the scientific experts are reportedly ready to reverse (颠倒) themselves. Suddenly, were going to be told that high-cholesterol foods are not bad for us aft

37、er all.This isnt the first time science reverses what it believes to be true, nor will it be the last. To optimists, the fluidity of sciences conclusions is a good thing - prove that science is always correcting itself in light of the very latest information. But a modem society that looks increasin

38、gly to science for not just what to eat, but also how to behave and what to think? How can we trust an authority that often changes its mind in extreme ways?Sciences typical way isnt limited to matters of nutrition. Go ahead and check it out for yourself by looking at the qualifiers used in the vast

39、 majority of honestly written science news articles. Youll see that the stories are laced with weak words and phrases such as: some, in certain circumstances, probably, perhaps, may, could, tends, suggests, indicates, according to, is linked to, plays a role in. The grave problem Ive observed over t

40、he years is that too often science and its reporters create the impression of certainty when none is proved. The cholesterol story is but one example of that make-believe certainty.How much should we be concerned about this? A great deal, I believe, given sciences great and growing influence on our

41、lives. At the very least, each of us needs to -understand that the scientific worldview impressive as it surely is is built on shifting sands. As Einstein once observed, “No amount of experimentation can ever prove me right; a single experiment can prove me wrong.”1、The underlined part “giving chole

42、sterol such a rap” (in Para. 1) means the author .Aalways promotes use of cholesterol Bsometimes stands for cholesterolCavoids cholesterol generally Deats cholesterol regularly2、In the eyes of the author, changes in scientific statements .Aare worrying Bare meaninglessCare a good thing in a way Dare

43、 the major way to improve science3、According to the text, which of the following is NOT the word commonly used in scientific articles?ALikely BSurelyCSeems DAppears4、What can be concluded from the passage?AScience can blind us.BScience need be open to doubt.CScience is not as important as thought.DS

44、cience should be built on experiments.25（10分）Traditionally, robots have been hard, made of metal and other rigid material: But a team of scientists at Harvard University in the US has managed to build an entirely soft robot-one that draws inspiration from an octopus (章鱼).Described in science journal

45、 Nature, the “Octobot” could pave the way for more effective autonomous robots that could be used in search，rescue and exploration. “The Octobot is minimal system which may serve as a foundation for a new generation of completely soft, autonomous robots” the studys authors wrote.Robots built for pre

46、cise, repetitive movements in a controlled environment dont do so well on rough terrains (地形) or in unpredictable conditions. And they arent especially safe around humans, because theyre made out of hard and heavy parts that could be potentially dangerous to their users.So researchers have been work

47、ing on building soft robots for decades. Theyre taken inspiration from nature, looking to animals from jellyfish to cockroaches, which are often made up of more flexible matter.But creating a completely soft robot remains a challenge. Even if engineers build a silicone (硅酮) body, its still a grand challenge to construct flexible versions of essentia
