I felt that c

20、alling the police was a choice to be used when everything else failed, and I wanted first to consider other ways of dealing with the situation, I asked him to hold off calling the boys parents.The next day was Saturday. Rob happened to look out of the window and said in fear, “There are the boys who

21、 beat me up!” Two older boys were standing in front of our house, as if they were waiting for Rob to step outside.My wife Bev opened the door and said with a smile, “HI guys.

22、said , “Sure .Why not?”Bev quickly introduced herself, Robs younger brothers and me. She even introduced Rusty, the dog. “And I think you already know Rob,” She said. Her idea was to help them to see that Rob was a person, not a target. He had a family and even owned a family pet.Bev drew the boys i

23、nto chat while we ate ice cream. After a few minutes, she said, “I know theres been some trouble at the bus stop.

28、 overtaken bikes as the most popular form of transportation.

29、r shared use to individuals on a very short-term basis. Bike-sharing system allows people to borrow a bike from point A and return it at point B.Now, the new bike-sharing system is hoping to help the public love the two-wheeled travel, reduce pollution, prevent traffic jams, reduce commuting (通勤)tim

30、e and help people to live healthier lives.Convenient as it is, it has caused some problems, Hangzhou, capital of East Chinas Zhejiang province, issued a guideline to regulate the citys booming bike-sharing market. There are now around 448,600 forhire bikes from 10 - 6 -companies on the streets of Ha

31、ngzhou. “Problems such as disordered parking and too many bicycles in crowded areas have disturbed traffic,” said Wu Zhirong, director of the Transport Bureau of Hangzhou.The guideline ordered bike-sharing companies to designate bank accounts to keep deposits, which should not be put to other use. T

32、he guideline also demanded bike-sharing companies to send at least one worker to repair 120 bikes.

37、ly.31 .What is the authors attitude towards bike-sharing system?A. Positive. B. Objective. C. Disapproving D. Prejudiced.DThe arm bones of women who lived 7,000 years ago show a surprising level of strengtheven higher than todays professional athletes. Thats according to a first-ever study comparing

38、 prehistoric bones to those of living people. The finding suggests a revision of history the everyday lives of prehistoric - 7 -women were filled with hard labor, rather than just sitting at home doing lighter tasks while the men struggled and fought for life.“Before the study, there are no clear re

39、cords describing how our ancient ancestors lived. It can be easy to forget that the bone is a living tissue, one that responds to the difficulties we put our bodies through,” said lead author Alison Macintosh. “Physical force and muscle activity both put pressure on the bone. The bone reacts by chan

40、ging in shape, thickness and other aspects over time. ”Previous studies only compared female bones to contemporary male bones, the researchers said and thats a problem, because the response of male bones to stress and change is much bigger than that of women. For instance, as humans moved from a hun

41、ter-gatherer lifestyle constantly on the move to a more settled agrarian (农耕的)one, changes can be observed in the structure of the shinbone (胫骨) and these changes were much more evident in men.However, a comparison of the bones of prehistoric women to the bones of living female athletes can help us

42、work out a more accurate picture of what those prehistoric women were doing. “By analyzing the bones of living people and comparing them to the ancient bones, we can start to explain the kinds of labor our ancestors were performing,” Macintosh said. What they found was that womens leg strength hasnt

43、 changed a great deal, but their arms used to be very powerful. Prehistoric women, the researchers found, had arm strength 1116 percent stronger than those of modern rowers, and 30 percent stronger than those of non-athletes.32.

44、than men. B. They had lighter bones than men.C. They did tough tasks as the men. D. They spent most time staying at home.33. What problem did previous studies on prehistoric bones have?A.

45、the lifestyles.34. What does the underlined word “that” in Paragraph 3 refer to?A. Bones structure. B. Bones thickness.C. Bones response to stress. D. Bones stress from hard labor.35. What can we learn from the last paragraph?A. Its still hard to explain our ancestors lifestyle. B. Prehistoric women

46、 went through much suffering.C. Womens arms have become much stronger over time. D. Prehistoric women are stronger than contemporary females.第二节（共 5 小题；每小题 2 分，满分 10 分）- 8 -Its an unquestioned truth of modern life: we are starved for time. We try our best to save bits of time here and there. Add it

47、up, and we will finally get to everything we want to do. But this idea has been completely backward. 36 We build the lives we want, and then time saves itself.Do we really have no time? “ I dont have time,” often means “Its not a priority(优先事项).” Time is highly flexible. We cannot make more time. Ho

48、wever, time will stretch(延展)to accommodate what we choose to put into it. No one will leave the broken water heater aside. So not doing something is not a matter of lacking time; 37 Actually, its a matter of choice.How do we treat our priorities? First, we need to figure out what our priorities are. Actually we may give ourselves a performance review. What three to five things did we do that made it so amazing? Next, we can write them into next years performance review. We will have a list of six to ten goals we can work on in the
