It was the beginning of another school year. I had agreed to teach all struggling students in need of critical intervention(介入). I knew what lay ahead—tough work hours overlaid with guilt, consumed with essays that needed feedback and lesson plans with best practice strategies. No wonder people always acknowledge my teaching career with, “I’m glad it’s you and not me.” Suddenly, my mind transported me to my first few years of teaching.
“Peter Potter，” I called from my name list, trying to control my laughter. “Laughlin McLaughlin？” Surely these were not real names.
“Emotionally disabled...keeps them separated from the other kids...，” the vice headmaster commanded. This was my first teaching assignment.
Surely this year could never be as discouraging as those first few. In my new classroom, I looked into the face of Jason. At eleven, his mother was killed in an accident, leaving him with physical, academic, and certainly emotional scars. I looked at another student, Robert, standing at the door; my vice headmaster asked if I would take him, even though he was an eleventh grader in my tenth grade class.
But then there were—and are—stories of success—of Dustin, in Graduate School for Electrical and Computer Engineering; of Michael, now a teacher in a city school; of Willie...I thought of the thousands of students whose lives have touched mine far more than I could have ever touched theirs.
I broke from my daydream, a smile spreading across my face. Sadness, tears, challenges, fears—yes, teaching is filled with all of these—yet, it is also filled with laughter and smiles, hope, dreams, and rewards beyond measure.
“I’m glad it’s you and not me.” Those words resounded in my mind once again. 24．What might the author’s job be like?
A．Easy. B．Boring. C．Interesting. D．Challenging. 25．What does the underlined sentence imply? A．These people would like to teach. B．These people did not like the author. C．These people would not want this job.
D．These people wanted to learn from the author. 26．Why did the author mention Jason and Robert? A．To show her regrets about taking up teaching. B.To introduce the basic situation of her students. C．To express her dissatisfaction with the school. D．To stress the importance of family education.
27．How did the author feel thinking of the successful students? A．She was doing a worthwhile job. B．She could never go back to the past.

C．She was the inspiration behind the success stories.
D．She would never make greater achievements in the future. C
If plastic had been invented when the Pilgrims sailed from Plymouth, England, to North America - and their Mayflower had been stocked with bottled water and plastic-wrapped snacks, their plastic waste would likely still be around four centuries later. Atlantic waves and sunlight would have worn all that plastic into tiny bits. And those bits might still be floating around the world’s oceans today, waiting to be eaten by some fish or oyster, and finally perhaps by one of us.
Because plastic wasn’t invented until the late 19th century, and its production only really took off around 1950, we have a mere 9. 2 billion tons of the stuff to deal with. Of that, more than 6. 9 billion tons have become waste. And of that waste, a surprising 6. 3 billion tons never made it to a recycling bin - the figure that shocked the scientists who published the numbers in 2017.
No one knows how much unrecycled plastic waste ends up in the ocean, the earth’s last sink. In 2015, Jenna Jambeck, a University of Georgia engineering professor, caught everyone’s attention with a rough estimate: between 5. 3 million and 14 million tons of plastic waste each year just come from coastal regions.
Meanwhile, ocean plastic is estimated to kill millions of marine( 海 洋 的 )animals every year. Nearly 700 species, including endangered ones, are known to have been affected by it. Some are harmed visibly, stuck by abandoned things made of plastic. Many more are probably harmed invisibly. Marine species of all sizes, from zooplankton to whales, now eat microplastics, the bits smaller than one-fifth of an inch across.
“This isn’t a problem where we don’t know what the solution is,” says Ted Siegler, a Vermont resource economist who has spent more than 25 years working with developing nations on garbage. “We know how to pick up garbage. Anyone can do it. We know how to deal with it. We know how to recycle.” It’s a matter of building the necessary institutions and systems, he says, ideally before the ocean turns into a thin soup of plastic.
28．Why does the author mention the Pilgrims in paragraph 1? A．To prove plastic was difficult to invent.
B．To introduce what marine animals like eating.
C．To show plastic waste has a lasting effect on the ocean.
D．To tell the Pilgrims contributed a lot to the marine protection. 29．What’s the main trouble marine animals face according to the text? A．Lacking protection. B．Being stuck by plastics. C．Being caught by humans. D．Treating plastics as food. 30．What does Ted Siegler want to tell us in the last paragraph? A．Plastics will turn the ocean into a soup of plastic. B．It’s time to take measures to deal with plastic waste. C．Some people don’t know the solution of plastics waste. D．People should avoid using plastics to protect the ocean. 31．
From which is the text probably taken?
1
A．A biology textbook. B．A travel brochure. C．An environmental report. D．A lifestyle magazine. D
A study found wireless signals are able to pass through bags and suitcases to judge the sizes of dangerous metal objects and identify them.“These items could include weapons, chemicals, laptops and batteries for bombs, ”the research team said on Tuesday.
Research suggested that Wi-Fi can now be used to estimate the volume of liquids such as water, acid, alcohol and other chemicals for explosive material. The study led by researchers at the Wireless Information Network Laboratory (WINLAB) in the School. of Engineering showed a wireless device with two to three antennas(天线)that could be fitted in existing Wi-Fi networks.
The detection system analyzes what happens when wireless signals go through and bounce off objects or materials. The approach, which the paper states, works by separating the wireless interference(干扰)caused by two factors of objects-the material and shape.\" Most dangerous objects such as weapons are usually metal or liquid, which have significant interference,\" researchers said.
When it was tested on a backpack, the accuracy rate topped 95 percent. “But the accuracy dropped to about 90 percent when objects inside bags are wrapped. And the tech could save lives if used in museums, stadiums, theme parks or schools,” the team said, noting its design can inspect bags or luggage without being an exposure to privacy.
It uses channel state information (CSI) that is readily available in low-cost Wi-Fi devices.“This could have a great impact on protecting the public from dangerous objects,”said Yingying Chen, a co-author of the study, There's a growing need for that now. In large public areas, it's hard to set up expensive screening equipment like what's in airports. Manpower is always needed to check bags and we want to develop a method to try to reduce manpower.”
The peer-reviewed study, which recently won a best paper award at the 2018 IEEE Conference on Communications and Network Security, is now published online.”Future work will continue to focus on ameliorating the accuracy of identifying objects and imaging shapes and volumes,”researchers said. 32. What does paragraph 3 talk about?
A. The way the device works. B. The function of the technique. C. The principle the study is based on. D. The benefit of the study findings. 33. What's the advantage of the device? A. It uses antennas to pick up networks' signals.
1
B. It saves people in danger of natural disasters. C. It passes through bags without damaging them. D. It protects personal information from being disturbed.
34. Why did the researchers study the device according to Yingying Chen? A. To save money and labour. B. To make full use of Wi-Fi. C. To protect passengers' privacy. D. To research dangerous objects. 35. Which of the following can replace the underlined word “ameliorating\" in the last paragraph?
A. Confirming. B. Improving. C. Discovering. D. Examining.

The darkness was gathering as she wobbled(颤颤巍巍) in high heels along the side of the highway. The car had come to an unexpected stop, and like a normal teenager she did the only thing she could think of...get out and walk.
It was cold and late, and home was far away. This could be a long night. If only someone would stop and offer her a ride. She prayed for help and dragged herself forward.
The lights of a truck shone from behind as it approached.“Maybe he will stop,\" she hoped. The brake lights flashed on as it stopped. Next instant, the cab door opened. A wordless invitation was extended and she understood. Without hesitation the girl climbed up into the seat and closed the door. Slowly the truck pulled back onto the road and disappeared into the night, never to be seen again.
I woke up in a cold sweat, alarmed. Was that a dream or was it a vision? It was unbelievably real, and the girl was my daughter! I jumped from my bed and ran to her room. Her bed was empty.
I stood in horror trying to think why she had not come home. As the mental fog began to lift, I remembered she was visiting her friend that evening. Perhaps she stayed there for the night. It was 1: 30 a.m, but I raced to the phone and dialed a number.
“Hello?\" The voice was heavy with sleep.
“Hey. Sorry to wake you. Becki didn't come home tonight and I was wondering if she stayed at your place?\"
“No, she left here a few hours ago. She should have been home at least by midnight!\" The voice on the other end began to reflect my own panic.
Over the next forty-five minutes I alternated between lying in pray and pacing the floor in anxiety.
At 2:15 a.m. lights appeared as a car turned up our long driveway. I could tell immediately that it was not my daughter 's car. 注意:

Dear Sarah,
I am Li Hua from Class One, Senior Three. As I have some problems with summary writing, I'm writing to ask for some advice.
Just as the name suggests, summary writing needs us to write a precise summary of an article, which is challenging to me. Not only do we need to read the whole article to get the main idea, but also we have to express its key points clearly with our own words, roughly 60 words. Frankly speaking, I can't even understand the article yet, let alone accomplish the summary.
Yours, Li Hua
My face pressed against the window and I found it hard to breathe. The car pulled in front of your house, and out of it emerged my precious daughter, making her way up the steps. Tears stinging(使刺痛) my eyes, I threw open the door, pulled her inside and hugged her tighly. The dream was just too real and I could hardly believe I was now having my daughter in my hug. I wondered if it was because my pray was answered. Then through my blurred vision(模糊的视野) I saw a lady stepping out of the car.
\"Mom, she gave me a ride home.\" Becki said.“My car broke down on the highway and without her help, I would never have made it home in my high heels.”she continued, exposing her blistered(起泡的) ankles. My heart shuddered(想起就怕/担心/难受) at the thought of how painful Becki staggered踉跄) along the dark highway. She must be an angel for Becki! I approached the
lady and invited her inside. Now, I was definitely grateful to her for extending a helping hand.
I'm expecting your reply.(90 words)
