We were playing a two-day stand
3、 in Hartford, Connecticut, and the big top caught fire.I could hear grandstand chairs slamming inside the tent as people headed toward the exits. Some were jumping twelve feet from the top rows of the grandstand and seats to the ground outside. Most of the crowd was pouring through the regular exits
4、 and it soon became a panic.In the midst of this scene the musicians had kept on playing until the tent was on fire over-head because they knew music sometimes might work wonder; they had jumped off the bandstand just before a flaming quarter-pole fell into their stand.City fire equipment had arrive
5、d by now and was pouring streams of water onto the big top area to cool it enough for firemen to enter. In the smoke and confusion, it was impossible to tell whether or not anyone might have been left in the tent. We circus people were ordered away from the smoking ruins that, only a few minutes bef
6、ore, had been the biggest spread of canvas in the world.I went outside; doctors, and first-aid workers were everywhere, carrying bodies from where the grandstands and seats had been. The toll (伤亡人数) of dead and dying increased so fast that emergency crews were called in from surrounding cities.Later
7、 it was found that 168 people had died in the fire the worst circus disaster in history, and an afternoon of horror I can never forget.1The musicians kept playing during the fire probably because they _.A thought the fire was in another tentB knew nothing about the terrible fireC wanted to keep the
8、crowd from panickingD believed the show should go on whatever happened2Why were emergency crews from other cities called in?A There were too many victims to deal with.B Fire equipment in the city was not enough.C Too many people were left in the tent waiting.D The circus people were unwilling to do
9、the rescue work.3Which of the following can be the best title of the passage?A A Journey to Death B The Day the Big Top BurnedC Memories as a circus clown D The Worst Disaster in Human HistoryIn a new look at the impact of long-time sitting behavior on health, a new study links time watching televis
10、ion to an increased risk of death. One of the most surprising findings is that it isnt just couch potatoes who were affected. Even for people who exercised regularly, the risk of death went up the longer they were in front of the TV. The problem was the long periods of time spent sitting still.Austr
11、alian researchers who tracked 8,800 people for an average of six years found that those who said they watched TV for more than four hours a day were 46% more likely to die of any cause and 80% more likely to die of cardiovascular (心血管的) disease than people who reported spending less than two hours a
12、 day in front of TV.Time spent in front of TVs and computers and videogames has come under fire in studies in recent years for contributing to a spread of obesity in the US and around the world. But typically the resulting public-health message urges children and adults to put down the Xbox controll

14、tanding up and using muscles. That doesnt happen when we are plunked on a couch in front of a television.”Indeed, participants in the study reported getting between 30 and 45 minutes of exercise a day, on average.The results are supported by a new field of research that shows how long periods of ina
15、ctivity can affect the bodys processing of fats and other substances that contribute to heart risk. And they suggest that people can help decrease such risk simply by avoiding extended periods of sitting.”此卷只装订不密封班级 姓名 准考证号 考场号 座位号 Keeping such processes working more effectively doesnt require const
16、ant intense exercise, but consciously adding more routine movement to your life might help, doctors say. “Just standing is better than sitting,” says Gerard Fletcher, a cardiologist at Mayo Clinic, Jacksonville, Fla., who works standing up at his computer. “When you stand up, you shuffle around a li
17、ttle bit and use muscles not required when you are sitting or lying down.”Simple strategies for increasing activity include combining household chores such as folding laundry with TV-watching time or getting up to change a TV channel rather than using a remote control. The report, published Tuesday
18、in the American Heart Association journal Circulation, focuses on TV watching in part because it is the main leisure-time activity in many countries, researchers said, especially in the US.4One misunderstanding people might have is that _.A the radiation from TV may badly affect your sightB TV progr
19、ams can broaden your horizons effectivelyC watching TV very long is a good way to kill timeD regular exercise can minimize the side effect of watching TV5What is new about the discovery of the Australian study?A Remote control shouldnt be used when people watch TV.B People who watch TV too long shou
20、ld take more physical exercise.C Sitting too long in front of TV will lead to high risk of heart attack.D Long-time sitting is bad for all people including those who exercise regularly.6According to the Australian study, how can the risk of death be reduced when people watch TV?A By increasing simpl
21、e movement.B By totally avoiding watching TV.C By taking some medicine.D By increasing sweaty type of exercise.In many American schools the holiday celebrating Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.s birthday is used as an opportunity to teach children about his life and legacy. But in too many of those same sc
22、hools, Black childrens extraordinary talents are still being wasted today. Nearly three-quarters of Black fourth and eighth grade public school students cannot read or compute at grade level. Black students made up only 18 percent of students in public schools in 2009-2010 but were 40 percent of stu
23、dents who received one or more out-of-school suspensions (暂被停学). A Black public school student is suspended every four seconds. Black students are more than twice as likely to drop out of school as White students. Each school day 763 Black high school students drop out.So I applaud the U.S. Departme
24、nts of Education and Justice for their recent action to address harmful school discipline policies that push so many thousands of black children out of school each year and into the juvenile (青少年) justice and adult prison pipeline. If the education system is to do its part in replacing it with a cra
25、dle to college, career and success pipeline, we must end the current practice where children in the greatest need are suspended from school mostly for nonviolent offenses.These resources, officially known as “guidance,” will help schools and districts meet their legal responsibility to protect stude
26、nts from discrimination (歧视) on the basis of race, color or national origin as required under Title VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964. As we recognize the 50th anniversary of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 and so many other important hard-won victories in the Civil Rights Movement this year, we must
27、remember those victories could be lost without meaningful enforcement of the laws advocates fought so hard to win half a century ago.While the guidance does not prohibit (禁止) schools or districts from using any particular nondiscriminatory policy, it does call into question some policies that have h
28、istorically excluded Black students and are of questionable educational value including “zero tolerance” discipline policies which require mandatory (强制的) consequences for certain infractions (违反), and policies that prevent students from returning to school after completion of a court sentence.Infor
29、mation of the new guidance recommendations is available at this government website for almost every school and district in the country. Check your own school district now to see whether the discipline policy is focused on creating a positive school climate and preventing misbehavior, whether consequ

31、 students dropping out of school.D The holiday celebrating Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.s birthday.8The guidance issued by the U.S. Departments of Education and Justice may _.A punish Black children for dropping out of schoolB push thousands of Black children out of school each yearC protect Black chil

42、 Help ItMy theory is that the female brain is mainly built for empathy the ability to understand other people and that the male brain is mainly built for building systems. 31 For example, women are more likely to read magazines on fashion and parenting, while men will choose magazines that feature c
43、omputers and sport.You may think that these preferences are influenced by the way people are taught to behave when they are growing up. However, this is not the case. A new study carried out at Cambridge University shows that newborn girls look longer at a face, and newborn boys look longer at a mob
44、ile. 32 It has also been observed that girls are better at noticing signs of changes in other peoples feelings. Boys, however, seem to enjoy building toy towers and playing with toys which have clear functions. 33 People whose jobs are in the construction industries are almost male. Math and enginee
45、ring, which require high levels of systems-thinking, are also male-chosen disciplines. Why do men and women have the difference? Actually women have four times as many brain neurons (神经) that connect the right and left part of their brains. Because of it, women have a better ability to multitask tha
46、n men. 34 Men tend to focus on a limited number of problems at a time. They will separate themselves from problems and view tasks as independent from one another.Some people may worry that I am suggesting one gender (性别 ) is better than the other, but this is not the case. My theory says that males
47、and females differ in the kinds of things that they find easy, but that both genders have their strengths and weaknesses. 35 It is not true. The study simply looks at males and females as two groups, and asks what differences exist, and why they are there.A Generally speaking, there are clear differ
48、ences.B Their preference for building systems may change over time.C You can see the same kind of pattern in the adult workplace.D They will consider many sources of information at the same time.E. It is important to stress that the female brain may be built more for empathy.F. That suggests certain differences between male and female brains are biological.G. Others may think the theory creates a belief of what a particular type of person is like.四、语法填空阅读下面短文，在空白处填入 1 个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。I can still recall the day 36 I sat on the stairs
