B Disaster struck on October 31, 2003, when 13-year-old Bethany went for early morning surf. Joining her best friend, Alana Blanchard, and her family, the grou
19、p went surfing along Tunnels Beach, Kauai at around 7:30 am. It was during her swim that Bethany was lying on her surfboard with her left arm hanging on the side of her board in the water. Suddenly, a 14-foot-long shark was fast approaching and soon caught her off. Bethany had no time to escape by t
20、he time the tiger shark attacked her, and suddenly her left arm had been severely injured just below her shoulder. She was immediately rushed to Wilcox Memorial Hospital, by which time she had already lost 60% of her blood. Fortunately, the surgery was successful. When Bethany was asked about the at
21、tack, her response is probably not as expected. She recalled how she had a cool head when she realized what had happened. This incident, however, did not turn Bethany away from her favorite sport, and despite the trauma (外伤), she was determined to get back on her surfboard. After one month had passe
22、d following the incident, Bethany was back in the water. With a new custom-made board, Bethany was ready to take up surfing once more. Without her left arm, she learned to kick more, and before she knew it, she was ready to compete once again. It was less than a year after the attack that Bethany en
23、tered her next major competition on January 10, 2004. Many people may have questioned how Bethany could have returned to surfing after such a tragic attack. However, this was Bethanys childhood dream. Ive wanted to become a professional surfer since I was eight. For a little while when I was in the
24、hospital after the attack, I thought I wouldnt be able to ever surf again. That didnt last long. I have a deep passion for surfing, and I was determined to keep going arm or no arm. And I did. 24.

28、poor-quality diet may increase the chances of weakness in older people. Researchers followed 2,154 older adults in the United States for four years. At the beginning of the study, the adults were between the ages of 70 and 81. Researchers placed each person into one of two groupsrobust or pre-frail.
29、 Those who did not appear to have any mental or physical problems were considered robust. Those who only had one or two symptoms of frailty (虚弱) were called pre-frail. Two hundred seventy-seven of those who took part in the study became frailer. Of the 1,020 who started out in healthy condition, 629
30、 either became frail or developed pre-frailty. Researcher Linda Milou Hengeveld was the lead writer of the study. She said that protein intake might also be important to reduce frailty risk, adding that sufficient protein intake is important to slow down the loss of muscle mass and strength that occ
31、urs with aging. But that is not what the study found. 英语试题第 5 页（共 9 页） 英语试题第 6 页（共 9 页） Lower vegetable protein intake was linked with a higher risk of robust people developing pre-frailty. However, it did not appear to influence whether those people developed frailty. There was no meaningful differ
32、ence in frailty risk based on total protein intake, animal protein intake or total calories in a persons diet. The study was published in the Journal of the American Geriatrics Society. It found that earlier research linked eating animal protein to a lower risk of frailty. But, it is possible that t
33、he current study got different results because it examined protein based on the total amount eaten daily. U.S. dietary guidelines urge people to eat whole fruits, fresh vegetables, whole grains, low-fat milk and dairy products and protein from many sources. The guidelines also advise against eating
34、foods that contain a lot of salt, saturated (饱和) fat and sugar. 28. Which of the following can replace the underlined word robust? A.Younger. B.Older. C.Healthy. D.Active. 29. What about the subjects after four years? A.1, 020 people were still in good health. B.About 30% of them went from bad to wo
35、rse. C.Less than 50% were not better than before. D.Only 13% of them became frail in the end. 30. What is the function of protein mentioned above? A.To help a person avoid frailty risk when he is old. B.To slow down the loss of muscle mass and strength. C.To determine whether those people developed
36、frailty. D.To increase much more extra calories a person needs. 31. What is the result of the research in the passage? A.A poor diet quality is tied to frailty in older adults. B.Older adults must take in protein as much as possible. C.Most older adults are considered to be in poor health. D.A diet
37、with fewer vegetables will do harm to our health. D Many people prefer to have a bottle of water with them wherever they go, and most typically they use disposable (一 次性的) plastic bottles for this purpose. Despite the convenience of this approach, its worth considering a move away from bottled water
38、. Plastic water bottles significantly contribute to the environmental crises that were currently facing. Of course plastic can be recycled, but only a small portion of waste is processed properly and reused again. Most of the plastic packaging ends up either in the landfills or in the oceans. While
39、our worlds oceans are faced with 8.8 million tons of new plastic material every single year, we must acknowledge that plastic water bottles share part of the blame for this problem. By using disposable water bottles on a regular basis, consumers create continued financial motivation for the water co
40、mpanies to keep producing huge amounts of waste, while its nearly impossible to monitor how the bottles are manufactured and which percentage is made of recycled plastic. Many brands advertise a variety of beneficial effects, but in reality bottled water passes through an industrial facility and may
41、 be polluted in quite a few ways. On the other hand, the impact of water impurities (杂质) can directly lead to serious health problems if such water is consumed over a long period. Some of the water impurities may be of chemical nature, like chlorine or calcium, and they can damage the skin. In rare
42、cases its possible to trace amounts of highly toxic (有毒的) materials in the bottled water products, which apparently results in dangerous consequences. Thats why its highly recommended to use both your own portable water bottle on the road as well as a water purification device at home to ensure that
43、 the water you are drinking daily is completely free of anything that could harm your health. Now that youre aware of how bottled water is pretty harmful not only to humans but also to wildlife and environment, are you ready to say good bye to it? 32. How does the author feel when it comes to plasti
44、c water bottles? A.These bottles have caught most peoples attention. B.They have created great convenience to our life. C.They should have been recycled to great extent. D.They have caused terrible impact on the earth. 33. What can we infer according to the third paragraph? A.The water companies are
45、 seeking for high profits. B.You should be cautious when deciding on bottled water. C.The bottles are made from non- recycled plastic. D.You should choose the famous brands of bottled water. 34. What is likely to make the consumers worried? A.Water in the bottles kept for a long time. B.The bottles
46、made of different materials. C.The bottled water with a lot of impurities. D.The complex procedure of producing bottles. 35. Which of the following can sum up the passage? A.Why You Need to Break Your Bottled Water Habit B.How the Plastic Bottled Water Is Actually Produced C.Why Most People Have a P
47、reference for Bottled Water D.How Plastic Bottles Create Influence to Environment 第二节第二节（共共 5 小题；每小题小题；每小题 2 分，满分分，满分 10 分分） 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。 Maybe youve spent much time searching for the perfect small business idea, and now you think youve found it. 36 Before you make any l
48、ife-altering changes, take some time to evaluate your business idea to see if it has the potential you expect. The first step of the process is to do some research and analysis to dig into your idea. 37 You need to create a picture of your ideal customers. Consider factors such as age, gender, education level, income, and location. The more you can narrow down the picture of your ideal customer the better. You wont be able to figure out if there is a market for your product or service until you have a clear idea of who you are
