Along the canal,look out for wildflowers and birdlife,and narrow boats negotiating the locks.The walk can be extended along the canal at either end to make it flexible in length. Warley Woods,Keswick Start point:Keswick Youth Hostel Starting in the centre of Keswick,this walk takes you up through Castlehead Wood,the perfect place for a woodland adventure,and to a wonderful viewpoint over Derwentwater and the surrounding mountains. The route then takes you down to the lakeshore and returns across Crow Park to the market square. Chester-le-Street,County Durham Start point:Chester-le-Street Amateur Rowing Club A lovely riverside walk along the banks of the River Wear,through Riverside Park and past Durham county football club. The circular route follows a curve in the river, meaning you'll have beautiful views along the way. Watch the rowers on the river or stop in the park to feed the swans and ducks. This walk is wheelchair-friendly. Hathersage Flower Meadows(草地），Derbyshire Start point:Hathersage Railway Station There are attractive views to be appreciated throughout this scenic walk and two sites of protected meadow offer a real treat to summertime walkers.Fans of the works of great masters,like Charlotte Bronte,will enjoy spotting several places that are closely associated with the authors. 21.What can you do in Warley Woods?

B As my husband and I drove down a country road, we passed a fire station with a sign that read,"Are you ready for the next storm?” Our area had just been in the path of Hurricane Irma,causing downed trees and outages. We were stuck in the dark and cut off from the outside world. We have had our share of storms in the past-a snowstorm and other heavy snows that knocked down trees, sometimes up to a week at a time. Those days in a cold house weren't fun, but we learned so much from those early storms, things that made later storms easier to bear. Now we have stored up flashlights, lanterns and candles. We bought a battery-operated radio to keep up with the news. We stocked up on batteries so that we'd have plenty for extended power failures. We make sure our grill(烤架） is ready and its tank is full, and we purchase food that can be easily prepared and then cooked or heated on the grill. And we don't forget to buy emergency chocolate! We have book lights to read in the dark. We keep our car gas tanks full and have emergency cash on hand. We're ready for the next storm, but we wouldn't have learned to do all those things if we hadn't encountered a storm in the past. The same is true spiritually. Those little storms in our lives are never fun, but they prepare us for the big storms-the big trials-that will come our way,They can teach us some valuable lessons. Are you ready for the next storm? Now is the time to get ready...not when the storm arrives. 24.Which can replace the underlined word "outages” in paragraph 1? A.weather change B.virus' spreading C.power failure D.emotional reaction 25.What does paragraph 3 mainly talk about? A.The lessons that storms can teach us. B.The importance of being ready for storms. C.The necessities the author bought for her daily life. D. The preparations the author made for the next storm. 26.What does the author think of experiencing the past storms? A. It was rewarding. B. It was annoying. C.It was thrilling. D.It was frightening. 27. What can we learn from the author's story? A.Things will work out. B.Keep something for a rainy day. C.Don't stop regardless of the weather. D.Sunshine always comes after the storm. C On a trip to the forests of southern India, amateur photographer Kaushik Vijayan was shocked to see some massive rodents(啮齿动物），who are maroon(紫褐色），leaping from treetop to treetop. Vijayan uploaded the images of the four-pound rodents to Instagram, and the Internet went crazy immediately. Some had a difficult time believing that the squirrels,photographed in the Pathanamthitta District of Kerala,actually exist, thanks to the animals' bright spots of black and maroon. But the Indian giant(巨大的）squirrel,also known as the Malabar giant squirrel, is the real deal. Believe it or not, it is not alone. There are three other giants in the squirrel family, Sciuridae-each of which weighs in at two to three times the size of the gray squirrels native to the eastern United States. ＂ The four species that make up this group are fascinating in their large size, brilliant coloration,and tendency for feeding on some of the massive tropical fruits on the trees,"says Koprowski. Even among its relatives, the Indian giant squirrel stands out with its bright colors, which makes one wonder why its evolution would select fur. That would call so much attention to itself. After all, these forests are also home to predators such as lion-tailed macaques, leopards,and crested serpent eagles-all of which have been known to hunt rodents. No one knows for sure, says Koprowski, but the squirrel's purple patterns may serve as a way to hide the animal itself. This is because the broadleaf forests these squirrels inhabit create a pattern of sun spots and shaded areas-not unlike the rodents' markings. In other words, what looks flashy and fun to us in an Instagram post may make the squirrels disappear when hungry mouths come to hunt. Now that's a common trick. 28. How did people feel after seeing the Malabar giant squirrel's images? A.Nervous. B.Incredible. D.Sorrowful. C.Embarrassed. 29. What makes the Malabar giant.squirrel different from the rest? A. Its size. B.Its habitat. C.Its color. D.Its lifestyle. 30. Why does the Malabar giant squirrel have unusual fur? A.To show itself off. B.To protect itself. C.To drive other animals away. D.To compete with its companions. 31.Which of the following may be a potential threat to the Malabar giant squirrel? A.Human beings. B. Rodents' hunting. C.The Instagram post. D.The broadleaf forests. D China successfully sent the 52nd and 53rd satellites of its domestically developed BeiDou Navigation Satellite System (BDS)-the last two medium Earth orbit (MEO) satellites for the BDS-3 constellation(星 座 ） － into space on Monday,marking the completion of the global navigation system's core constellation deployment(部 署 ） and this year's BDS satellite launch campaign. Launched from Xichang Satellite Launch Center, Sichuan Province,on board a Long March- 3B carrier rocket with an Expedition-1 upper stage,the two satellites were injected into planned orbits after more than three hours' flight. Since the first BDS-3 satellite was launched on November 5,2017,China has conducted 18 BDS satellite launch missions, successfully sending 30 into their planned orbit,setting a national record for highest mission frequency and success rate. In-orbit tests will be carried out before the two MEO satellites are commissioned(正式委 托）。By then the core constellation for the Chinese global navigation satellite system will be successfully completed. Wang Ping,chief designer of the BDS-3 system,said that the hybrid constellation design,in which three groups of satellites-the Inclined Geo Synchronous Orbit (IGSO),MEO and geosynchronous Earth orbit (GEO)-work in concert in different orbits,was an exclusive BDS innovation and a world first. “Existing global navigation satellite systems, such as the US GPS and Russia's GLONASS, only have a MEO satellite constellation,” said Wang. The MEO satellites,in orbit 20,000 kilometers above Earth,are.a special type of satellite providing global service, while the IGSO and GEO satellites, in an orbit 360,000 kilometers above Earth, mainly enhance regional service quality,according to Wang.That explained why completion of the MEO constellation was significant,marking the completion of the core network for BDS-3, meaning a stable BDS-3 global coverage without weak points has been carried out. Feedback shows that the BDS service quality was already comparable to GPS since the end of 2018, and after completing BDS-3, “We will be as good as any GNSS,” Wang said. 32. How many BDS satellites were sent into their planned·orbit successfully? A.3. B.5. C.18. D.30. 33. What's the advantage of BDS compared with GPS and GLONASS? A. The excellent service quality. B.The diverse functions. C.The lower cost of designing it. D. The ability to work in different orbits. 34.Why are the MEO satellites important? A. They can serve the world. B.They can enter farther orbits. C.They can avoid all the weak points. D. They can be put into use immediately. 35. What may be the best title for the text? A. Exploring Space Is Very Important to the World B.The BDS-3 System Has Benefited Many Countries C.The Core Constellation of BDS-3 Completes Deployment D.China Becomes the First Country to Launch a MEO Satellite 第二节（共 5 小题；每小题 2.5分，满分 12.5分） 阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余 选项。 It's the start of a new year, when your fitness goals are set and you engage in the challenge. 36 Their standards of “too big” are not even achievable in their lifetime,let alone a few months of training,which brings my tips. Set realistic goals! The process of building muscle is an absolutely slow one that requires strong will to gain.Consistently causing protein synthesis(合成） in specific muscle fibers will allow muscle to develop. However,all individuals are not equal in the process.37 Gaining muscle will happen quickly to a new gym-goer, but take a long time for someone that has been training for years. Stick to specific training for the goals you set to achieve. 38 This will require you to restrict the diet, and it will prevent you gaining muscle. Diet reflects the training load. The training reflects your goals. It's like swimming upstream,think strong,fast and flexible.If you are running a marathon, the goals are different and train accordingly! 39 Fat has taken some time to develop, so it will not be lost overnight.Allow the hormonal triggers(生理诱因）in the body to work more efficiently to regulate volume of food. Taking out additional sugars is one of the most important steps to regulate volumes of food to switch off desire for food. Once a goal is reached, do not go back to what you did before. When people finish their transformation, the hormone profile is very weak to fat deposition(沉 积 ） 。 Every training session should be a step toward a lasting transformation, with a diet improving the level of exercise. 40 A.Don't try to achieve too much at once. B.Why do so few people see their goals through? C.Give yourself a realistic timeline when it comes to fat loss. D.Keeping running slowly leads to very big changes over time. E.Appreciate that you are taking time for your own development. F.Place restrictions on your diet and follow good food eating patterns. G.Also, it depends on how long you have been training to achieve muscle growth. 第三部分 语言运用（共两节，满分 30分） 第一节（共 15小题；每小题 1 分，满分 15分） 阅读下面短文，从每题所给的 A、B、C、D 四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 Once I started working after graduating from Wilfrid Laurier University,I decided to stay in the workforce and go to school part-time.I began my journey as an adult 41 in the Business Administration program at Wilfrid Laurier University.When I 42 from Laurier,a colleague introduced me to the Certified Employee Benefit Specialist (CEBS) program,which offered a professional credential(凭证）related to my field of 43 These days,I keep my industry knowledge 44 through reading industry publications,45 relative conferences and taking an annual Continuing Education course.From a 46 interest perspective,I've taken music lessons and 47 in first aid, gardening and website development.

On Thursday,Bessemer City High School held its annual graduation ceremony.Dom Moore was one of the teachers involved in coordinating the event. After the ceremony ended, Dom was cleaning up. Nearly everybody had left to celebrate with friends and family,but one young man was still sitting there by himself. “I knew his moods and I knew he wasn't himself,”Dom said. Not knowing what to say at first,the teacher told him,"I expect big things from you and it's going to be OK.” Dom assumed that someone would show up eventually to give the graduate a ride home. But nobody did. When Dom offered to drive him,the two had no idea that this was to be more than just a ride home.The teacher decided to take him out to eat-at any restaurant of his choice.They ended up at the Cheesecake Factory,and enjoyed a hearty meal and dessert to celebrate the graduate's achievement. At first,the two were fighting back tears. But before long, they were having a great time together. Dom never asked why the boy's family did not attend the ceremony. What was important to him was that the young man felt appreciated for what he had accomplished.Later that evening,Dom took to Facebook to share a photo and some thoughts on the event. He says that he doesn't normally post about these situations, as they are all too common in his profession, but that something inside urged him to share this experience. 注意： 1.续写词数应为 150左右； 2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Actually,Dom wanted to help the young man. Dom thinks what these people did set an example to us.
