When dry ice melts, it turns into a gas. So when you see dry ice "smoking", it's frozen CO2 melting into its gaseous state. Dry ice is a popular matter in scientific experiments. It creates projects that look cool.‎ ‎ Experiment: Healthy dry ice popsicles（棒冰）‎ ‎ This dry ice experiment will catch people's eye, especially little kids' because the dry ice is going to be used to make what the young love to eat. It should take you about 10 minutes or less to have a frozen treat to enjoy.‎ ‎ Materials ‎ One large block of dry ice ‎ A large spoon ‎ Popsicle sticks ‎ One cup of your favorite juice ‎ A tall glass filled with water Directions ‎ Use the large spoon to make a popsicle-shaped space in a block of dry ice. You can set the ice on a piece of cloth on your table to do this work. Of course, keep in mind that it's okay if it's ‎ not exactly popsicle-shaped.‎ ‎ Add a popsicle stick to the middle of the space so that when you pour in the liquid, it will freeze around the popsicle stick.‎ ‎ Hold the popsicle stick in place and wait a few minutes for your popsicle to harden. After several minutes, take away the popsicle from the block of dry ice and put it into a tall glass of water for a few seconds. Do this to warm up the popsicle just a bit. Otherwise, it will be too cold.‎ ‎21.According to the text, what's the main difference between dry ice and common ice?‎ ‎ A. Their forms. B. Their shapes. ‎ ‎ C. Their temperatures. D. Their states when they melt.‎ ‎ 22. What's the first step to do the experiment?‎ ‎ A. To fill the tall glass with juice. B. To pour the juice into the space.‎ ‎ C. To make space in the dry ice for juice. D. To put a stick to the middle of the dry ice.‎ ‎ 23. How does the dry ice work in the experiment?‎ ‎ A. It gives out "smoke". B. It is mixed in the juice.‎ C. It makes the juice freeze. D. It makes the popsicle look cool.‎ B ‎ Some of Australian cyclists have used "GPS art" to turn a ‎202 km (125- mile) ride into the outline（轮廓）of a goat, which interests many people greatly.‎ ‎ The four men marked their route on an app before using it track their journey around Perth. When uploaded to the computer, it was shown as a picture. Cyclist Ben Jones said the group settled on a goat because it was an easy animal to draw. He said the ride lasted more than six hours, with the four men stopping only for food, and flat tyres . "Except for riding ‎202km,' it's relatively simple," Mr. Jones told the BBC. "You mainly mark your route on the app and it plans directions out."‎ ‎ GPS art has also been widely used by runners and other cyclists when they travel out. Mr. Jones said his group wanted to shake up their normal weekend ride. "We all ride l‎0,000km to ‎15,000km a year," he said. "Mostly we just ride together as mates and have a good time － that's what this was about."‎ ‎ The group received much attention after posting their map to social media this week. Others described Mr. Jones as a goat guy in an interview on Australian television. For their next piece of GPS art, the group plans to draw a local animal such as the koala. "Certainly, there'll be something coming, for we are making our decisions to put more and more plans into practice. I'm sure of that," Mr. Jones said.‎ ‎24. What holds many people's attention greatly?‎ ‎ A. The cyclists' shaping the route into the outline of a goat. ‎ ‎ B. The cyclists' having the GPS to travel with.‎ ‎ C. The cyclists' having traveled 125 miles.‎ ‎ D. The cyclists' riding more than 6 hours.‎ ‎25. What did the four men do during their six-hour ride?‎ ‎ A. They had their bikes repaired. B. They got something to eat.‎ ‎ C. They stopped to have a rest. D. They planned new directions.‎ ‎26. How would Mr. Jones feel about their ride? ‎ ‎ A. It was tiring. B. It was moving. C. It was enjoyable. D. It was amazing.‎ ‎27. What does the underlined word "that" in the last paragraph refer to?‎ ‎ A. Mr. Jones becoming a goat guy. B. People paying attention to the map.‎ ‎ C. The group drawing the animal koala. D. The group performing their ride plans.‎ C ‎ The 23rd April is World Book Day, but do you know that it is also Shakespeare Day? Everybody has heard of Shakespeare, but do you know how many plays he wrote?‎ ‎ Shakespeare's plays have three kinds: tragedies , comedies and histories, His most famous play is the tragic story of Romeo and Juliet, which deals with two young lovers who are not allowed to marry by their parents. Other tragedies include Hamlet, Othello, and Macbeth.‎ ‎ Shakespeare's comedies include Much Ado About Nothing, A Midsummer Nights Dream and Twelfth Night. Twelfth Night is a play about unclear identities. Two twins are shipwrecked(遭海难）and the sister, Viola, dresses up as her brother, Sebastian, who she thinks is dead. It's funny, because the brother reappears and there's a big love problem going on: Viola is in love with the Duke, who is in love with Olivia, who falls in love with Sebastian except that she doesn't realize that Sebastian is actually Viola dressed up! Everybody falls in love with the wrong person, but it is all made right in the end.‎ ‎ The history plays, such as Antony and Cleopatra, Richard Ⅲ and Henry V are based on the lives of real historical people. In Antony and Cleopatra, Cleopatra becomes Antony's girlfriend and Antony becomes so crazy about her that he loses control of the army. Cleopatra kills herself in the end and Antony kills himself too.‎ ‎ Shakespeare's plays can be very difficult sometimes. Some of the themes they deal with are heavy, so they almost always include a lighter subplot with characters who are not so important. They are often used in tragedies to lighten the mood of the play and to keep the audience interested in the main plot.‎ ‎ 28. Which of the following plays is best-known to people?‎ ‎ A. Twelfth Night. B. Romeo and Juliet.‎ ‎ C. Antony and Cleopatra. D. Much Ado About Nothing.‎ ‎ 29. Which is a comedy character according to the text?‎ ‎ A. Othello. B. Hamlet. C. Antony. D. Sebastian.‎ ‎ 30. What can we know about Shakespeare's history plays?‎ ‎ A. There are only three famous history plays.‎ ‎ B. They are developed from real historical events.‎ C. They are more difficult than tragedies and comedies.‎ D. Real historical people can be found in every history play.‎ ‎ 31. What is the purpose of the subplot in Shakespeare's plays?‎ ‎ A. To relax the audience and make them follow the main theme ‎ B. To make the difficult plot of the plays simple ‎ C. To help the audience understand the plays.‎ D. To lead the development of the main plot.‎ D ‎ The idea that you can use humor, laughter, and play to make you healthier probably seems too simple to be true. However, it is really true and simple. The sense of humor, laughter and play has an important part in keeping you healthy.‎ ‎ Use "the best medicine" to treat the blues with a sense of humor, which is closely tied to laughter. Laughter is infectious. Have you ever heard a big laugh of a young child and been able to ‎ keep yourself from smiling? When laughter is shared between people, it makes them closer to each other and increases their happiness. Smiling is the beginning of laughter and a smile is also just as infectious as laughter is. You can experience something by smiling at everyone around you, and you will feel happier just by sharing a smile, even with a stranger.‎ Play is an important part of making sure that we stay healthy. We are often encouraged to make sure our children play, and are told of the benefits of being out playing. However, what we often forget is that it is just as important for old people to make play be part of their life as it’s for children. Physical play is important for the old and it certainly helps prevent illness. While the studies are still in the early stages, the studies that have been done have shown that physical play certainly plays a part in preventing cognitive(认知的) falling.‎ ‎ Anyway, adding humor, laughter, and play to our life will influence us mentally, physically and socially and bring us many advantages. So we should make full use of humor, laughter and play to make our life more active, interesting and happier. ‎ ‎32. What does the underlined word "infectious" in Paragraph 2 probably mean?‎ ‎ A. Playing an important role. B. Keeping people in high spirits.‎ ‎ C. Quickly influencing other people. D. Preventing illness from spreading.‎ ‎33. What can laughter increase according to the author?‎ ‎ A. Cognitive ability. B. Good relationships. ‎ ‎ C. A sense of humor. D. Happiness and trust.‎ ‎34. What does the author think the old should do?‎ A. They should have a good rest. B. They should play like children. ‎ C. They should prevent cognitive falling. D. They should take part in physical play. ‎ ‎35. Which of the following would be the best title for the text?‎ ‎ A. Humor, Laughter and Play for Health B. Always Keep Our Body Healthy ‎ C. Have an Active and Happy Life D. Let Our Body and Mind Relax 第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10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。‎ Stress simply means the way a person reacts to things that happen to him or her. 36 For example, problems that have something to do with health such as getting injured, having difficulties with a disease, etc. can make some people feel stressed. Young children may feel stressed when they go to a new place. Other people could feel stressed because of not having enough money. ‎ ‎37 Saying "no" when you're asked to help with work is sometimes helpful. Taking more work than you can possibly achieve can be stressful. That you feel you can achieve something doesn't mean that you should take it on personally. After all, there are only a certain number of hours in a day.‎ ‎ Laughter is indeed the best medicine for any problem including stress. Sometimes we get so busy with all kinds of plans and endless meetings that we forget to have fun. 38 .‎ ‎ Hobbies also can be a great way to manage stress. 39 While hobbies like listening to music and reading can take your mind off your worries, creative hobbies like painting, gardening and the like can help in increasing your self-respect, too.‎ ‎ In a word, stress is like a leaking fountain. 40 Leaving it ignored will only make the matter worse.‎ ‎ A. The earlier you fix it, the better.‎ ‎ B. So try and watch movies and shows that are funny.‎ ‎ C. There are different reasons why people get stressed.‎ ‎ D. They are activities you can do without the fear of being judged.‎ ‎ E. Speaking to people you believe in is a great way to manage stress.‎ ‎ F. Eating slowly and in a relaxed state of mind helps you manage stress.‎ G. Luckily, whatever causes, there are also different ways to deal with stress.‎ ‎ 第三部分 英语知识运用（共二节，满分45分）‎ 第一节 完形填空（共20小题；每小题1.5分，满分30分）‎ 阅读下面短文，掌握其大意，从短文后所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。‎ I was driving to a supermarket this morning.

The topic of my speech today is “Four-day Workweek”As we know, employees typically work five days a week for eight hours each day. However, many employees want to work a four-day week and are willing to accept less pay in order to do so. Now employees have the option of working a four-day workweek for four-fifths of their normal pay. This would benefit both the individual companies and the employees who decided to take the option. In this way, employees would feel more rested and watchful. As a result, they would make fewer costly errors in their work. Thus, the shortened workweek would increase company profits. Companies can hire more staff to ensure that the same amount of work would be done without more pay. For the country as a whole, one of the primary benefits is that it would reduce unemployment rates. If a lot of full-time employees started working fewer hours, some of their workload would have to be ‎ given to others. Finally, the option of a four-day workweek would be better for individual employees. As long as the employees could accept a lower salary, they could improve the quality of their lives by spending the extra time with their families, following private interests, or enjoying various forms of relaxation. 停顿 00′02″‎ 重复 停顿 00′20″‎ 哔—‎ 第二节到此结束。‎ 现在，你有两分钟的时间将试卷上的答案转涂到客观题答题卡上。‎ 停顿 02′00″‎ 哔—‎ 听力部分到此结束。‎ 附：阅读和完型的详解 A ‎ 本文为应用文，话题是实验类。文章介绍了干冰 以及用干冰制作棒冰所需的原料、工具和操作过程等。‎ ‎ 21．D细节理解题。根据第一段的第二、三句Unlike common ice, dry ice doesn't melt into a liquid.
