The country geographically comprises two main lands—the North Island, or Te Ika-a-Maui, and the South Island, or Te Waipounamu, and numerous smaller islands. New Zealand is situated some 1,500 kilometers east of Australia across the Tasman Sea and roughly 1,000 kilometers south of the Pacific island areas of New Caledonia, Fiji, and Tonga. Because of its remoteness, it was one of the last lands to be settled by humans. The country’s varied topography（地形）and its sharp mountain peaks, such as the Southern Alps, owe much to volcanic eruptions. New Zealand’s capital city is Wellington, while the city that has the largest population is Auckland.‎ Polynesians settled in the islands that were to become New Zealand somewhere between 1250 and 1300 AD, and developed a unique Maori culture. In 1642, Abel Tasman, a Dutch explorer became the first European to sight New Zealand In 1840. Representatives of the British Crown（王室） and Maori Chiefs signed the Treaty of Waitangi, making New Zealand a British colony. Today, the majority of New Zealand’s population of 4.5 million is of European descent(血统), and the indigenous(土著的) Maori are the largest minority, followed by Asians and Pacific Islanders. Reflecting this, New Zealand’s culture is mainly originated from Maori and early British ‎ settlers, with recent broadening arising from increased immigration. The official languages are English, Maori and New Zealand Sign Language, with English predominant(主要的).‎ New Zealand is a developed country with a market economy that mainly consists of the exports of dairy products, meat and wine, along with tourism. New Zealand is a high-income economy and ranks highly in international comparisons of national performance, such as health, education, economic freedom and quality of life.‎ ‎18．What does the underlined word “comprises” in Paragraph 1 mean?‎ A．Loses B．Conquers. C．Explores. D．Includes.‎ ‎19．What can be inferred from the text?‎ A．New Zealand was the last land to be settled by humans.‎ B．The indigenous Maori takes up the largest population in New Zealand.‎ C．The formation of the Southern Alps has something to do with volcanic eruptions.‎ D．New Zealand’s culture is mainly originated from Maori and early Dutch settlers.‎ ‎20．Who made great contributions to Maori culture according to the text?‎ A．Polynesians. B．Dutch. C．British Crown. D．Tonga.‎ ‎21．What does the last paragraph mainly talk about?‎ A．The developing aims of New Zealand.‎ B．The economic situation of New Zealand.‎ C．The high ranks that New Zealand government has got.‎ D．The achievements that New Zealand government has got.‎ D As any person suffering from lack of sleep knows, dark circles under the eyes usually stand out after a bad night's sleep．‎ But why do people get these dark eye bags？The answer is both genetic （that is， relating to your DNA） and environmental （a result of your everyday living， such as rubbing your eyes or getting too little sleep），said Dr. Carol Clinton，a ‎ skin-care researcher in Dublin，Ohio．‎ But "the biggest reason is genes." Clinton told Live Science．Eye bags are generally more noticeable in people who，because of genes，have thin or pale skin．When people are tired or very nervous，blood circulation in the eye area becomes slow，allowing blood to pool there．Clinton said．Capillaries （毛细血管） stand out，leading to dark eye circles, she said．Besides，eye bags result from eyes' fat moving forward. An age-connected increase in fat beneath the eyeballs leads to eye bags．"Anyway，when your eyes' fat is moving forward，you may think about having an operation in that area，" Clinton said，"A person can get 9 hours of sleep a night，but still have eye bags because of a genetic development."‎ In other cases，environmental problems cause eye bags．For example, allergies （过敏）－especially seasonal allergies－can cause capillaries to stand out．Getting too much sun can also damage and thin the skin，making dark circles under the eyes easy to see．Besides，eating salty foods can cause the body to hold more water, which makes eye bags worse，according to the Mayo Clinic．‎ ‎22．In Clinton's opinion, what is the main cause of the formation of dark eye bags？ ‎ ‎ A．Genes． B．Habits． C．Age． D．The environment．‎ ‎23．What can rid you of your eye bags according to the text？‎ A．Getting much sun．‎ B．Drinking plenty of water．‎ C．Having an operation on the fat in the eye area．‎ D．Slowing your blood circulation in the eye area．‎ ‎24．What can we learn from the text？‎ A．It's possible to change genes．‎ B．Rubbing your eyes might cause dark eye bags．‎ C．Young people don't get dark eye bags．‎ D．You can't get dark eye bags if you get enough sleep．‎ ‎25．What's the best title for the text？‎ A．What Can You Do to Protect Your Eyes？‎ B．The Importance of Sleep to People's Health C．Several Measures to Remove Your Eye Bags D．Why Do People Get "Bags" Under Their Eyes 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。‎ How to improve reading efficiency ‎1.

As is known to all, with the improvement of people’s living standards, cars have become a popular means of transport, bringing great convenience to our life. However, they have also caused some problems such as air pollution and traffic jams. How can we solve the problems then?‎ As far as I’m concerned, riding bicycles is a good solution. For one thing, bicycles don’t need any petrol and they are energy-saving. For another, bicycles are environmentally friendly because they won’t give off waste gas. What’s more, riding bicycles is a good way for us to exercise and it is beneficial to our health. Therefore, let’s take the responsibility to build up a low carbon city by riding ‎ bicycles. Come on and join us!‎ Thank you!‎ ‎ ‎
