• 2．When we decided to sell our flat，having been cheated by the previous owner，we thought it was really important to be completely honest with any potential buyers about having knotweed （蓼科雜草） in the garden.It had been such an unpleasant and stressful experience for us and we didn't want to have anyone else suffer any longer.
     We bought our two-bedroom flat in 2014，when it was just the two of us.But after having three kids it became too small，so we sold it last year.The flat has a small garden at the back，but we didn't know the presence of knotweed until well after we moved in and had a note from our neighbor behind our flat saying that they thought we had knotweed.Then we had a look and found some very small offshoots for this was just around springtime.At that point my husband and I certainly didn't realize quite how problematic it could be.But then we started reading all the horror stories and became really concerned — people couldn't get a mortgage；they couldn't sell；the plant was creeping through concrete etc.
     Then we treated the offshoots with glyphosate and as far as we knew it was completely gone.Before we put the property on the market we had the house checked by some specialists，who thoroughly inspected everything，including the connecting garden，and couldn't find anything at all.We signed a ten-year insurance-backed guarantee with the company that could be transferred to the new owners，then started marketing the property through an agent.
     In fact we found a buyer pretty quickly and they didn't beat us down on price as we'd already done much for the treatment.Knotweed doesn't need to be a deal-breaker，as long as you're upfront about it.
  
  （1）Why did the writer probably decide to sell the flat？

  
  A．To remind others to be honest.
  B．To escape the trouble of knotweed.
  C．To avoid the crowded living space.
  D．To relieve the anger of being cheated.
  （2）What can we know about knotweed from the text？

  
  A．It is planted for home decoration.
  B．It is a wild plant seen only in spring.
  C．It would cause much trouble to people's life.
  D．It aroused writer's attention at very beginning.
  （3）How did the writer succeed in selling the flat at a reasonable price？

  
  A．By showing tricks to the buyer.
  B．By taking effort to treat the knotweed.
  C．By finding a well-known property agent.
  D．By decorating the flat with a fantastic garden.
  （4）Which of the following best describes the writer？

  
  A．Dependable and responsible.
  B．Patient and modest.
  C．Helpless and embarrassed.
  D．Careless and greedy.

• 3．Rivers are the veins of the Earth，transporting the water and nutrients （營(yíng)養(yǎng)物） needed to support the planet's ecosystems，including human life．While many nutrients are essential to the survival of life，there is one element transported by water in rivers that holds the key to life and to the future of our planet - carbon．
     Carbon is everywhere and understanding the way it moves and is either released or stored by the Earth system is a complex science in itself．Carbon starts its journey downstream when natural acid rain，which contains carbon dioxide from the atmosphere，melts minerals in rocks．This helps transform carbon dioxide to bicarbonate （碳酸氫鹽） in the water that then flows in our rivers．This is a very long process，which is one of the main ways carbon dioxide is removed from the atmosphere．Carbon is transported by rivers to oceans and once that carbon reaches the ocean，it is stored naturally in deep sea sediments （沉淀物） for millions of years．
     As carbon travels down a river，different processes may impact whether it continues to flow downstream or whether it is released into the atmosphere．For example，human engineering，like extensive dam construction，will result in dramatic changes to how water and sediments travel down the river．Some carbon that fails to reach the sea may return to the atmosphere in some way，which causes more warming．
     Earth's climate is closely related to the carbon cycle．We all know about the essential role of plants in consuming carbon dioxide，but do we know enough about rivers？Changing the chemistry and the course of rivers may have significant impacts on how they transport carbon．Remember：wherever we live，we all live downstream．
  
  （1）Where is the carbon in rivers originally from？

  
  A．The atmosphere．
  B．The rocks．
  C．The acid rain．
  D．The upstream areas．
  （2）Why is human engineering mentioned in Paragraph 3？

  
  A．To show how important to life carbon is．
  B．To explain how necessary it is to build dams．
  C．To show how a natural process is interrupted．
  D．To explain how humans fight global warming．
  （3）What does the author want to convey in the last paragraph？

  
  A．We'd better move upstream to live．
  B．We should protect plants along rivers．
  C．We'd better seek more help from plants．
  D．We should be cautious about river management．
  （4）What is the best title for the text？

  
  A．What Humans Do with Rivers
  B．How Rivers' Transporting Carbon Counts
  C．What the Carbon Cycle Means to Us
  D．How Living Downstream Affects the Earth

      With the start of new school，freshmen of Hendersonville High School in Nashville were excited to meet new classmates and teachers.Among them，however，15-year-old Sergio Peralta was feeling very nervous because his right hand had never fully formed since he was born.Going to a new school and being "different" is always scary.Sergio was particularly concerned with what his classmates would think of him.
      Sergio's parents had trained him to use his left hand from an early age.As he grew up，he was used to not using his right hand.He could write with his left one and do some things with special tricks or techniques.Despite this，in the first days of new school，Sergio always felt like hiding his underdeveloped right hand in his sleeve as if nobody would ever find out if he did so.
      It didn't take long for someone to learn Sergio's secret.Jeff Wilkins，the teacher of Sergio's engineering class，figured out that Sergio was missing part of his hand and decided to do something for the new student.Jeff had been leading a robotics project in the school and expert in 3 D printing technology.Besides，he hoped to take advantage of this hands-on chance to help his robotics students learn more about engineering and how building a robotic hand worked.
      So in his class，Jeff announced with great enthusiasm， "You're supposed to be engineering，coming up with new ideas and solving issues.Now Sergio needs a new hand，so we'll work together to build Sergio a robotic hand." His words fueled everyone's curiosity and creativity.
      For the next four weeks，Jeff and his class including Sergio worked on the project.After some precise measurements and researches，the class put forward a design draft.Jeff made a few adjustments and gave them some practical suggestions.With access to online models and a 3 D printer，they eventually created a robotic hand，which was intended to look good and work well，like catching something.
  注意：
  （1）續(xù)寫(xiě)詞數(shù)應(yīng)為150左右；
  （2）請(qǐng)按如下格式在答題卡的相應(yīng)位置作答。
      Then came the final testing day.
  __________
      The life-changing gift for Sergio drew huge attention.
