My sister says it was because I ate a bowl of really spicy chili (辣的辣椒) right before bedtime, but I think that's impossible. Can spicy foods at bedtime really have an influence on one's sleep? —Sleepless Dear Sleepless,‎ I know your feeling because I often eat spicy chili before lights out. I've also experienced sleep problems after eating a lot of spicy foods. What does science say ?‎ Researchers in Australia did an experiment to find out the effects of spicy foods on how we seep. They wanted to try to know the influence of spicy foods on the length or quality of sleep. They gave a group of people delicious late-night meals. Some nights, they got spicy meals. Other nights, their meals were mild (清淡的). It turns out that your sister is on to something. When the people taking part in the experiment ate spicy foods, their sleep patterns (模式) were changed. They took longer to fall asleep and they slept less too. This was the kind of information the researchers were looking for to build a link between eating spicy foods and possible sleep problems.‎ Researchers aren't sure exactly how spicy food: change seep patterns, but they have some ideas on the subject. People's sleep could be influenced because of stomachache caused by eating spicy foods. Also, they could be taking too long to fall asleep because of taking too long to dig (消化) the spicy foods. But they also guess that body temperature plays a role. Spicy foods include something that can raise the body's temperature. Other studies have connected increased body temperature with poor sleep. So before you go to bed, leave the chilies alone and sleep well.‎ ‎ —Science ‎41. The questioner couldn't sleep last night because .‎ A. he ate spicy foods B. he went to bed too late C. he was angry with his sister D. he talked with Dr.Science for a long time ‎42. According to the passage, Dr.Science believes .‎ A. eating at bedtime is unhealthy B. many Australians enjoy eating spicy foods C. eating spicy foods can influence one's sleep D. spicy foods are more healthful than mild foods ‎43.

How does Dr. Science reply to the questioner?‎ A. By sharing his personal experience.‎ B. By telling him about some research.‎ C. By interviewing him face to face.‎ D. By making experiments with him.‎ B American folk music is the music of the people. "Good Night Irene," is an example of a traditional folk song. That means the song is so old, no one really knows who wrote it. Huddie Ledbetter, the singer and guitarist known as Ledbelly, first recorded "Good Night Irene" in 1932. Since then more than a hundred other versions have been recorded , "Good Night Irene," was a huge hit for the Weavers in 1950.‎ Folk songs sometimes tell stories about real events. An example is the story of a young man whose last name was spelled D-U-L-A but pronounced "Dooley". Tom Dula was a Civil War soldier in North Carolina. He was found guilty of the murder of his girlfriend. He was banged in 1868, yet the case left many questions. The story was retold in poems and songs—including the hit song. "Tom Dooley," recorded in 1958 by the Kingston Trio.‎ Folk singer and songwriter Amy Speace says the history of American folk music can be imagined as a tree with many branches. At the center, she says, is Woody Guthrie. Woody Guthrie wrote almost 3000 songs. But he only recorded about 300 of them. His granddaughter Anna Canoni says that was partly because he did not have enough money to record more.‎ Yet for all his influence, millions of Americans today remember him for just one song, which children learned in school. The song, "This Land Is Your Land," seems like the perfect expression of pride in country. What many people do not know is that it was meant sarcastically(讽刺地), as just the opposite. This meaning is made clear later in the song, in the parts that most children never learn in school.‎ Some people probably think of a folk singer out of date from 1960s. A long-haired, guitar-playing idealist who sings about bringing the world together. But these days, with music production software,digital video and social networks all easily available, folk artists really can bring the world together.‎ ‎46. What do we know about "Good Night Irene"?‎ A. Ledbelly wrote this old song.‎ B. The Weavers’ version was very successful.‎ C. It was first recorded in 1950.‎ D. It was about a real event.‎ ‎47. Who was Tom Dula?‎ A. An imaginary person in a song.‎ B. A soldier killed in a war.‎ C. A real man thought to be a murder.‎ D. A hero hanged wrongly.‎ ‎48. From Paragraph 3 we can learn that Woody Guthrie .‎ A. earned a lot by writing folk music B. recorded as many as3,000 songs in his life C. recorded his songs with a major record company D. played an important role in the history of folk music ‎49. Why is part of "This Land Is Your Land" not learnt in school?‎ A. It expresses dissatisfaction with the country.‎ B. It shows something against children's pride.‎ C. It is replaced by a better one.‎ D. It is not easy for children to learn.‎ ‎50. What is the author's attitude toward folk artists?‎ A. Favorable.‎ B. Uncaring.‎ C. Doubtful.‎ D. Critical.‎ C There was a little boy visiting his grandparents on their farm.He was given a slingshot (弹弓)to play with, but only in the woods.He practiced in the woods, but he could never hit the target. Getting a little discouraged, he headed back to dinner.‎ As he was walking back, he saw Grandma's pet duck. Just out of impulse(冲动), he hit the duck in the head and killed it. He was shocked. In a panic, he hid the dead duck in a woodpile only to see his sister watching. Sally had seen it all, but said nothing.‎ After lunch Grandma said, "Sally, let's wash the dishes." But Sally said, "Grandma, Johnny told me he wanted to do it today, didn't you, Johnny?" And then she whispered to him,"Remember the duck?" So Johnny did the dishes,‎ Later, Grandpa asked if the children wanted to go fishing, and Grandma said, "I'm sorry, but I need Sally to help make supper." But Sally said with a smile, "Well, Johnny told me he wanted to help." And she whispered again,"Remember the duck?" So Sally went fishing and Johnny stayed at home.‎ After several days of Johnny doing both his housework and Sally's, he finally couldn't stand it any longer. He came to Grandma uneasily and said that he killed the duck. She gave him a hug, and said, "I know that. But because I love you, I forgive you. But I was wondering just how long, would you let Sally make a slave of you."‎ How often we allow ourselves to be enslaved by our unwillingness to expose our wrong doings? We just go on living and sacrifice (牺牲)our peaceful mind.So we cannot even enjoy the good in our lives. Everybody, please take courage to speak out your faults and you will be rewarded with great relief and relaxation.‎ ‎51.The little boy went back home discouraged because .‎ A. he missed his slingshot in the woods ‎ B. his grandparents only let him play in the woods C. he found it boring to play with a slingshot on his own D. he always missed the target while playing with his slingshot ‎52.

When my son and three daughters were little, my husband, Charles, and I always made sure to have dinner,followed by a big cake and presents.‎ Later, when the kids grew up and lived in different states,they always called to wish me a happy birthday. But this year I could have skipped the whole day, knowing there was one call I wouldn't be receiving, the one from my daughter Patty. She'd passed away unexpectedly just a month before.One thing which made me feel a little calm was a voice message that she'd left on my cell phone the night before she died, telling me she loved me.‎ Over the following days I played her message of wishes over and over again, listening to the last words she said. "I love you very, very much, Mom." then, a couple of weeks before my birthday, while I was doing laundry, I accidentally dropped my phone in the washing machine. Quickly I pulled it out and dried it off, but when I checked my voicemail, Patty's message was gone. I cried, heartbroken. Day after day I kept checking my voicemail, hoping Patty's message would reappear. It never did.‎ On the morning of my birthday, I received my son's wishes.However, all I wanted for my birthday was to hear Patty's voice again. "Happy birthday." Charles said, "Let's go out for dinner and a movie. It might help take your mind off things." Charles was right. I turned off my phone,settled into my seat in the movie theater and let the film take me away. But the minute it ended I started thinking about Patty again. As we were walking out of the theater, I turned on my phone. It rang, signaling I'd gotten a voice message. Probably just my youngest daughter, Leslie, calling to wish me a happy birthday, I thought.‎ ‎ I dialed up voicemail and the message began. It was Patty’s voice, clear as a bell, saying again,"I love you very, very much, Mom."‎ ‎61. How did the family celebrate the author's birthday when the children were young?

One possible version:‎ Friendship Friendship is a kind of human relations. It is a human instinct to make friends. When in trouble, we need friends to offer us help, support and encouragement. With success achieved, we also need friends to share our joys.‎ I had a really tough time learning English in the first year of my high school. Being extremely desperate, I would just have given it up if I had not received a timely help from my desk-mate, Li Jin, who was then monitor of my class. Every time I felt puzzled about a long sentence, he gave me detailed explanation; every time I made a mistake in pronunciation, he helped me to correct it; every time I got a failing grade in exam, he encouraged me to preserve my confidence. It was just because of his care and support that I gradually made progress and finally learned English well.‎ Just from that age, I have held a firm belief that the significance of friendship can never be overstated. Just as Shakespeare puts it, "a faithful friend is the medicine of life."‎ 听力录音稿(高二2018.1)‎ ‎(Text 1)‎ M: I’ll be off right away. I’ll be at your house to pick you up in half an hour.‎ W: OK, good.

The storms caused serious damage, leaving at least two hundred homes with their water and power cut off. A great number of families were left homeless after the roofs of their houses were blown away. Scenes of destruction can be seen everywhere. In Main Street, the car park was flooded completely. We can still see cars that have been badly damaged by floodwater. Some cars were carried across the parking area and dumped into storm-water drains. In White Street, some big trees were uprooted and smashed into parked cars. Worse still, in Green Street, a tree fell on a bus which was taking some basketball players to a game. Luckily, no one in the bus was hurt. Insurance companies are going to be hard hit, covering thousands of dollars for the losses. As for tomorrow, it’s reported the weather conditions will improve, as clear skies are expected.‎
