But did you know that you lose your sense of thirst as you get older? This means youre more likely to become dehydrated, making you more prone to (有倾向) falls, heart disease, urinary-tract infections, kidney stones and confusion. A study from Loughborough University in the UK has shown that drivers who had only a little water an hour made twice as many mistakes as motorists who were properly hydrated. In fact, they made a similar number of errors to what youd expect from someone over the drink-drive limit. So how do you know when youre dehydrated? Warning signs include: *Feeling tired *Dry mouth and dry skin *Dark urine *Reduced appetite (食欲) *Reduced concentration *Headache *Constipation. But you might not notice any symptoms (症状)at all，so to make sure you stay hydrated: *Keep a glass of water by your side when youre at home, and drink it regularly. *Form a new drinking habitfor example, when watching TV, always reach for the water glass during an ad break. *Take a small bottle of water with you when you go out. *Always drink a large glass of water with a meal. *Eat fruit and vegetables with high water content. *Draw up a weekly water carda bit like a coffee loyalty cardwith a target of eight glasses of water a day. Mark it every time you have a glass of water. Award yourself a prize when its full at the end of the week, *Drink water before, during and after you take any exercise. 21. The word “dehydration” in the title may probably mean . A. loss of water from the body B. confusion of the mind C. warning signs of illnesses D. a kind of weather sign 22. According to Paragraph 1, dehydration can . A. occur only in warm weather B. make you get older and older C. cause physical and mental problems D. be easily noticed in our daily life 23. To make sure you stay hydrated, youd better . A. take no notice of the warning signs B. award yourself eight glasses of water C. eat any fruit and vegetables you like D. leave some water within your reach 4 / 10 B Teenagers in America know that theyll possibly need technical skills to find good jobs, but a new survey reveals that interest in technology-related careers may be decreasing. The percentage of boys aged 13 to 17 who are interested in science, technology, engineering and math -or STEM -careers dropped from 36 percent in 2017 to 24 percent this year, according to a survey by Junior Achievement USA. The amount of girls interested in STEM careers stayed unchanged at 11 percent. But the 1, 000 survey participants still named technology as one of two key skills that will be necessary to prepare them for their future careers. “Kids don t understand how technology can be applied to careers in addition to computers, and maybe robotics, ”said Tammera L. Holmes, president of aviation consulting firm Aerostar Consulting (航空资询公司） “Thats all they know， so they cant really translate that interest to career pathways. ” When Holmes was in high school, her mom sent her to an event that featured (以.为专题 ) the pilots from World War II. One of the pilots took her for a ride and let her take the wheel. “Immediately that was the career for me. ”she said. Women remain outnumbered (超过) by men in fields like technology. For people working to increase the number of women in these areas, the lack of growth in girls interest in STEM careers is concerning. Teenage girls are more interested than their male classmates in running after careers in which they can help others, said Ed Grocholski from Junior Achievement. Even with all the programs aimed at increasing girls interest in STEM, “I dont think we really talk that much about how we improve peoples lives through STEM, ” Grocholski said. Society needs to do better at making those connections for kids, said Katherine Latham, founder of an engineering firm. She used civil engineering as an example of a career that will continue to be important. However, the fact that students know they will need tech skills in their future careers is encouraging. The second skill they said they need is relationship-building. “Thats going to be the new type of engineers,” Latham said. 24. What is the reason behind kids losing interest in tech careers? A. They cant connect their tech interest with future careers. B. They find tech skills less important than before. C. They don t think tech careers can bring rewards D. They see tech careers as boring. 25. What aroused Holmes interest in her career? A. A summer camp for pilots. B. Her flight experience with a pilot. C. A report about the life of pilots D. Her parents wish for her. 26. What can we learn from Grocholskis words? A. STEM careers have nothing to do with people s lives. B. Teenage girls are interested in running after STEM careers. 5 / 10 C. Teenagers don t know how to improve peoples lives through STEM. D. The relationship between STEM careers and the improvement of peoples lives isnt explained enough. 27. According to Grocholski, teenage girls are more interested in careers that_. A. can make them look attractive B. can make friends with other people C. can make peoples lives better D. are different from those of their parents C Art and science may seem like opposite things. One means the creative flow of ideas, and the other means cold, hard datasome people believe. In fact, the two have much in common. Now, a study finds art can help students remember better what they learned in science class. Mariale Hardiman, an education specialist at Johns Hopkins University, noticed that students who used art in the classroom listened more carefully. They might ask more questions. They might volunteer more ideas. Whats more, students seemed to remember more of what they had been taught when their science lessons had involved（涉及）art. To prove that, Hardiman teamed up with some researchers and six local schools. In the experiment, the researchers worked with teachers in 16 fifth-grade classrooms. They provided traditional science lessons and art-focused ones. In a traditional science class, for example, students might read aloud from a book. In the art-focused one, they might sing the information instead. The team randomly assigned（随机分配）each of the 350 students to either a traditional science classroom or an art-focused one. Students then learned science using that way for the whole unitabout three weeks. When they changed to a new topic, they also changed to the other type of class. This way, each student had both an art- focused class and a traditional one. Every unit was taught in both ways, to different groups of students. This enabled the researchers to see how students did in both types of classes. The team found that students who started off in traditional classes performed better after they moved into an art-focused class. But those who started in an art-focused class did well even when they went back to a traditional science class. These students appeared to use some of the art techniques（技巧）after going back to a traditional class. Classroom teachers reported that many students continued to sing the songs that they learned after finishing the unit. The more we hear something, the more we retain it, Hardiman says. It suggests that the arts may help students apply creative ways of learning on their own. 28Why did Mariale Hardiman do the study? ATo prove the importance of art at school. BTo know how to encourage students to ask questions. CTo find a way to help her students learn better. DTo see if art might improve science learning. 29What were the students required to do in the experiment? ALearn three units in total. BChoose what theyd like to learn. CLearn two topics for three weeks. 6 / 10 DTake two types of classes. 30What does the underlined word “retain” in the last paragraph mean? ARemember. BExpress. CImprove. DFinish. 31What is the text mainly about? AArt helps students develop creativity. BArt-focused classes interest students a lot CArt can make science easier to remember. DArt has something in common with science. D The future of space exploration may depend on an art form from the past: origami (折纸艺术), the ancient art of paper folding. Researchers from Washington State University (WSU), US, have used origami to possibly solve the problem of storing and moving fuel to rocket engines, a key challenge in space travel, according to Newswise. Theyve developed a foldable plastic fuel “bladder (囊状物)” resistant to super cold temperatures, which could be used to store and pump fuel in spacecrafts of the future. Their findings have recently been published in the journal Cryogenics. “Folks have been trying to make bags for rocket fuel for a long time,” said Jake Leachman, one of the lead researchers. “We currently dont do large, long-duration trips because we cant store fuel long enough in space.” Meanwhile, NASA is also looking to paper folding to help observe distant planets. The agency is currently developing Starshade, a foldable, sunflower-shaped piece of hardware that would help block starlight and enable telescopes to view distant objects more clearly in space. “A huge part of my job is looking at something on paper and asking, Can we fly this?” Manan Arya, a technologist in California, said. “Once I realized this is how you fold spacecraft structures, I became interested in origami. I realized I was good at it and enjoyed it. Now, I fold constantly. ” Using origami for space purposes isnt new, however. Solar arrays (太阳能阵列), experimental wings for space shuttle programs and an inflatable (可充气的) satellite were also inspired by origami in both past and present space projects. “With most origami, the magic comes from the folding,” Robert Salazar, who helped design the Starshade and now works on the Transformers project, said in a statement. “There are so many patterns to still be explored.” 32. How could the “bladder” help in future missions? A. To protect spacecrafts from extreme weather. B. To help rocket engines cut energy consumption. C. To be used to store and supply fuel in spacecrafts. D. To be used to improve energy efficiency. 33. What can we know about NASAs Starshade? A. It can be used to get telescopes closer to stars. B. It can help telescopes get clearer pictures of objects in space. 7 / 10 C. It can absorb a stars light before it enters telescopes. D. It can enlarge the view of telescopes in space. 34. What is this text? A. A travel journal. B. A science report. C. A digest. D. An advertisement. 35. Which can be the suitable title for the text? A. Folding into space. B. The art of paper folding. C. Space exploration. D. The origami-inspired projects. 第二节 七选五（共 5 小题；每小题 2.5 分，满分 12.5 分） 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Simple ways to improve your written English Many people think it is really difficult to improve their writing in English.
