I took a job as a receptionist for a vet almost five decades ago. As an enthusiastic animal lover, I accepted the position on the condition that I wouldn't have to assist with any wounded animals. I couldn't bear to see any creature in pain.
At the end of my first week, we were closing the office for the day when a young man ran up to us holding a severely injured Doberman Pinscher puppy in his arms and begging us to save his life. The four－month－old pup had been hit by a car.
The doctor and I ran back into the operating room. The only place the skin was still attached to this poor little animal's body was around one shoulder. The vet worked tirelessly for what seemed like hours, sewing him back together again. That was the easy part. The puppy had broken multiple bones, including his spine. If he survived the next few days, we were quite sure he would never walk again.
That day forever changed my life. The vet mentored me, and I became his assistant in all things medical. One of my first jobs was to give that Doberman puppy daily physical therapy. I remember moving his tiny legs to try to keep his muscles from withering.
Weeks went by until one day, I felt this little fighter push back ever so slightly. And he continued to push back till he could finally use his legs.
Fast－forward about a year. I walked into the clinic's crowded waiting room and called the name of the next client. Suddenly, a huge Doberman who had been standing quietly with his owner on the opposite side of the room ran toward me. I found myself pinned against the wall with this magnificent dog standing on his hind legs, his front paws on my shoulders, washing my face with abundant and joyful kisses!
I still tear up in amazement at the display of love and gratitude the dog had for me that day all
those years ago. I went on to be a vet for 14 years, and since retirement, I've volunteered at a no－kill animal shelter. In all the time that has passed and all the experiences I have had, I've never met a dog who didn't know it had been rescued in one way or another.
()58. Involved in the process of the puppy's operation, the author ________．
A. overcame his own mental obstacle
B. was sure the dog could walk again
C. decided to be a vet via his own efforts
D. realized the pup would thank him later
()59. What does the underlined word “mentored” in Paragraph 4 probably mean?
A. Coached.
B. Praised.
C. Impressed.
D. Dismissed.
()60. What might be the best title for the passage?
A. A Special Friend
B. A Grateful Patient
C. An Instructive Lesson
D. A Terrible Experience
C
Bees can be harmed by low levels of neonicotinoid(新烟碱类农药) pesticides, and now it seems birds can too. Migrating white－crowned sparrows have been found to lose weight after eating seeds treated with one of these chemicals, imidacloprid (吡虫啉〈一种杀虫剂〉), delaying their onward migration by several days.
Such a delay could hamper their chances of successfully breeding. However, the main
manufacturer of the pesticide disputes the findings.
The latest twist in the debate over neonicotinoids is the result of work by Christy Morrissey at the University of Saskatchewan in Canada and her team.They caught migrating sparrows, tagged them with tiny radio transmitters and gave them feed containing imidacloprid or an alternative without the chemical. The birds given the pesticide lost up to 6 per cent of their body weight in the 6 hours before release, whereas the other birds hardly lost any. Scans also showed a decline in body fat among the first group.
When released, the birds not fed imidacloprid continued their migration after half a day. Those given the pesticide took four days, on average, to do the same. Morrissey says she also has unpublished evidence that two other neonicotinoids have similar effects.
Birds that arrive late at breeding grounds are less likely to raise the young successfully and may not breed at all, says Morrissey. “This has serious impacts on populations.”
The study shows sublethal(亚致死的) doses of neonicotinoids can have adverse effects on seed－eating birds as well as on beneficial insects such as bees, says Caspar Hallmann of Radboud University in the Netherlands. “Birds—especially small birds—are really dependent on having sufficient body fat during migration.”
The findings are disputed by Bayer, the main manufacturer of imidacloprid. Real－world neonicotinoid exposure levels are far below those that disrupt migratory behaviour, and the pesticides are safe when applied according to instructions, says a Bayer spokesperson.
Morrissey says the birds were given realistic amounts. They could get the highest dose given in the study by eating just one－tenth of a treated maize seed, a fifth of a soya bean or three canola seeds, for instance. “It's tiny, tiny amounts，” she says.
In North America, 57 of the 77 bird species associated with farmland are in decline, with neonicotinoids one possible factor. However, Morrissey says that banning these pesticides isn't the answer because farmers will just use alternatives that may turn out to be as bad. Instead, we need to find ways of farming that don't rely on any chemical fixes, she says.
()61. What's the possible risk of birds delaying their onward migration?
A. Birds may lose weight up to 6 per cent of their body in hours.
B. Birds may fail to arrive in their migration destination in the end.
C. Birds may suffer from higher level of neonicotinoid pesticides.
D. Birds may miss out on the opportunities to breed.
()62. The result of work by Christy Morrissey implies ________．
A. pesticides' makers should not question her findings
B. she has enough evidence to illustrate birds' suffering
C. pesticides could be in part to blame for the bird decline
D. birds are really dependent on body fat during migration
()63. The purpose of Paragraph 8 is to ________．
A. illustrate the danger of exposure to imidacloprid
B. counter the safety of imidacloprid Bayer claims
C. show large amounts of imidacloprid used in farming
D. indicate tiny imidacloprid is deadly for wild animals
()64. The farming practice Morrissey prefers is ________．
A. chemical－free
B. farmland－free
C. farmer－friendly
D. machine－friendly
D
The Democratic debate on health care has to date centred around who should be covered and who should pay the bill. That debate, which has been going on for decades, has no clear answers and cannot be easily resolved because of two fundamental realities: Health care is expensive, and Americans are sick.
Instead of debating who should pay for all these, no one is asking the far more simple and imperative question: What is making us so sick, and how can we reverse this so we need less health care? The answer is staring us in the face, on average three times a day: our food.
Poor diet is the leading cause of mortality in the United States, causing more than half a million deaths per year. Just 10 dietary factors are estimated to cause nearly 1，000 deaths every day from heart disease(心血管疾病), stroke and diabetes alone. These conditions are dizzyingly expensive. Cardiovascular disease costs $351 billion annually in health care spending and lost productivity, while diabetes costs $327 billion annually. The total economic cost of obesity is estimated at $1.72 trillion per year, or 9.3 per cent of gross domestic product.
Fortunately, advances in nutrition science and policy now provide a road map for addressing this national nutrition crisis. The “Food Is Medicine” solutions are win－win, promoting better well －being, lower health care costs, greater sustainability, reduced disparities among population groups, improved economic competitiveness and greater national security.
Some simple, measurable improvements can be made in several health and related areas. For example, Medicare, Medicaid, private insurers and hospitals should include nutrition in any electronic health record; update medical training, licensing and continuing education guidelines to put an emphasis on nutrition; offer patient prescription programmes for healthy produce; and, for the sickest patients, cover home－delivered, medically－tailored meals. Just the last action, for example, can save a net $9，000 in health care costs per patient per year.
Taxes on sugary beverages and junk food can be paired with subsidies on protective foods like fruits, nuts, vegetables, beans, plant oils, whole grains, yogurt and fish. Emphasizing protective foods represents an important positive message for the public and food industry that celebrates and rewards good nutrition. Levels of harmful additives like sodium, added sugar and trans fat can be lowered through voluntary industry targets or regulatory safety standards.
The private sector can also play a key role. Changes in shareholder criteria and new investor coalitions should financially reward companies for tackling obesity, diabetes and other diet－related illness. Public－private partnerships should emphasize research and development on best agricultural and food－processing practices. All work sites should demand healthy food when negotiating with cafeteria vendors and include incentives for healthy eating in their wellness benefits.
Government plays a crucial role. The significant impacts of the food system on well－being, health care spending, the economy and the environment—together with mounting public and industry awareness of these issues—have created an opportunity for government leaders to champion real solutions.
Yet with rare exceptions, the current presidential candidates are not being asked about these critical national issues. Every candidate should have a food platform, and every debate should explore these positions. A new emphasis on the problems and promise of nutrition to improve health and lower health care costs is long overdue for the presidential primary debates and should be prominent in the 2020 general election and the next administration.
()65. According to the author, the core problem on health care is ________．
A. who should be covered in health care
B. who should pay the bill of health care
C. how to find reasons of people's sickness
D. how to reduce dependence on health care
()66. The danger of poor diet is to ________．
A. worsen the problem of health care
B. increase the number of stroke alone
C. cause the death rates higher than ever
D. contribute to the rise of national GDP
()67. The example of the sickest patients is to show ________．
A. the necessity of health records
B. the importance of tailored meals
C. the way to reduce health care costs
D. the ambition to cut medical budgets
()68. What can we know from Paragraph 6 and Paragraph 7?
A. Lowering levels of harmful additives has become a safety standard.
B. Taxing sugary beverages as well as protective food may be essential.
C. Rewarding companies providing healthy food should be encouraged.
D. Emphasizing healthy eating is beneficial to food－processing practices.
()69. In the 2020 general election, he author will vote for a candidate who ________．
A. has created a new food system for government leaders
B. has a food platform and explores the presidential position
C. is being asked about some critical national issues in debates
D. is committed to food management and lower health care costs
()70. What can we infer from the passage?
A. Our food is killing too many of us.
B. National nutrition crisis is coming.
C. Junk food may be forbidden for sale.
D. Sick Americans need more health care.
第四部分任务型阅读(共10小题；每小题1分，满分10分)
请认真阅读下列短文，并根据所读内容在文章后表格中的空格里填入一个
．．最恰当的单词。
注意：请将答案写在答题卡上相应题号的横线上。每个空格只填1个单词。
According to the recently published cultural mindset study from Culture Trip, 60% of people in the US and UK say that their outlook on life is shaped by influences from different cultures. At the same time, the economic landscape of the last decade has resulted in younger generations being more interested in collecting experiences than possessions.
Welcome to the “new culture economy”
The collision of the two trends—globalization and the experience economy—has caused a new travel concept with cultural curiosity at its heart. This is the “new culture economy”. The phenomenon is having a profound impact on people's interactions and definitions of cultural exploration and presents an incredible commercial opportunity.
Education, travel, exposure to other customs and the cultural mashup that energes are the more influential social effects of globalization. More than half of respondents from the cultural mindset study have friends living overseas, while 78% have friends or family of different nationalities. Besides, the confines of student debt and unaffordable housing have created a shift in spending patterns, and so a new set of values has emerged in which experiences matter more than ownership.
Why we travel
People's social networks expose them to digital influencers and keep them connected to friends or family living in other parts of the world. The combination of these cultural, social and personal drivers has helped us to identify four cultural mindsets.
1. Culturally aware—The motivation to travel among this group is anchored in pleasure. They seek out familiarity and select destinations close to home or reflective of their own culture.
2. Culturally curious—Those with this mindset travel to discover new things and disrupt their everyday routines. They seek some familiarity, but also want to explore boundaries. They want to be seen as someone who is interested in culture, but this is often expressed in terms of visual interest and well－known sites.
3. Culturally immersive—For this group, travel is all about adventure and personal growth. They want to be seen as highly cultured and as “explorers”；they are happy to celebrate when things go wrong, which they see as the key ingredient to making memories.
4. Culturally fluid—The group's identity is shaped by their familiarity with travel. They feel at home everywhere and have adopted a hybrid cultural identity. Memories are often tied to experiences with people that represent the culture they are travelling to rather than sites.
The environmental trade－off
The cultural mindset research also sheds light on how people perceive the effect of tourism on the environment and the measures they take to reduce their impact. Two in five millennials—more than any other generation—worry that tourism has a negative impact on the environment and over a third limit how much they travel to reduce their impact.
While most people won't control their desire to travel entirely, good news is that those who see the world are also the ones taking measures in their everyday lives to reduce their impact on the environment.
The environmental
trade－off,◆(80)________ of the negative effect tourism has on the environment, those travelling are willing to take measures like setting a limit to their travel.
第五部分书面表达(满分25分)
81. 请阅读下面文字，并按照要求用英语写一篇150词左右的文章。
Smartphones have become a necessary part of daily life. A study shows that smartphones owners usually start to use their phones in the morning. It appears that they can hardly go without their phones even for one day.
“I feel chained to the phone all the time. I use it for everything and I am in cellphone prison. It is time that I should do something to change the situation，” 17－year－old Johnson said to CGTN.
According to new research carried out by Asurion, a global tech protection and support company, people all over the world check their phone on average once every 12 minutes—burying their heads in their phones 80 times a day and spending over five hours on the phones. That seriously affects their daily lives.
“Using smartphones definitely causes poor attention control，”Abraham Zangen, a professor told CGTN. “It also leads to social stress ‘What are they thinking of me？’”
