One night I received a Facebook message from Laura, a former classmate. "Hey Steve," she said,
"I know you've always been an animal lover. I've just had a baby and I can't keep my mini- pig."
Being fond of animals, I knew I wanted the pig. I just had to figure out how to make it happen. I
lived in a two-bedroom single-level house in Georgetown, Ontario. It's tough to bring a pig back to
the house I share with two dogs, two cats, and my lifelong partner.
But I was not letting that pig go. So I told Laura I'd take the animal. When I got home with the
pig, I hid her in the bedroom, and began to prepare a dinner for Alisha—her favourite bacon
cheeseburgers. It's better to make her happy before introducing the new member to her.
When I led her to the bedroom and showed her the surprise, Alisha stood in the doorway like a
statue. It took her a few seconds to know what I had done. She complained about my unreasonable
action. She insisted there was no more room in the house.
I knew I was wrong, but I hoped I could smooth things over. Soon enough, the lovely pig did the
smoothing for me. Never had we felt such joy as she brought to us. We got her a name "Esther".
Esther's arrival changed our lives. A few weeks later, we decided to stop eating bacon. We
figured it was our turn to try to change the world for other animals. A few months later, we moved to
a farm where we cared for abandoned animals—so far, six rabbits, six goats, two sheep, one horse,
three cows and three chickens.
24. Who does the underlined phrase "my lifelong partner" in Paragraph 2 refer to?
A. Laura B. Steve C. Esther D. Alisha
25. Why did the author cook Alisha a meal?
A.To make an apology to her. B.To please her to accept the pig.
C.To celebrate Esther's arrival. D.To show off his cooking skills.
26. What was Alisha's reaction the moment she saw Esther?
A. She was frozen for a while. B. She showed interest in her.
C. She burst into tears. D. She quarreled with Steve.
27. What is the best title for the text?
A. A Little Pig Bringing Happiness to a Family
B. An Abandoned Pig Finding a Warm Home
C. A Small Pig Making a Big Difference
D. A Lovely Pig Removing a Couple's Disagreement
C.
In summer the extreme heat often makes people sweaty and restless. While people are annoyed
by it, experts suggest summer is the best season to discharge (排放) your body’s toxins (毒素) and
recover your energy.
One popular option is hot-stone massage (按摩). Therapists(治疗师) use smooth and heated第 五 页 共 十 页
stones, usually river rocks, to massage certain parts of the body, or place them on key points of the
body. The warmth of the hot stones will improve blood circulation and also help relax muscles, while
sweating is also believed to be good for discharging the body’s toxins.
Another popular option is hot-stone baths. The hot-stone bath will help the body discharge
toxins and humidity that accumulated during the last winter. Summer is the best season to build a
good body. Rather than use water or steam to heat and wash the body, people simply wear a coat or
something comfortable, and then lie on heated stone tablets made of hot stones, which are warmed to
around 45˚C. The body will gradually warm up and blood circulation will also be improved. More
sweat will come out quickly. The sweat is smooth and fresh, not smelly like that released after sports
activities. Such baths bring a number of health benefits, such as anti-aging, improved blood
circulation and stress relief. The slimming effect of dieting can even be promoted.
Using hot stones for healing dates back to ancient times, but the modern renewal of hot-stone
massage is generally credited to Mary Nelson, a native of Tucson, Arizona, America, whose
trademark is “LaStone Therapy”.
The therapy is gaining wide popularity with many people, especially those who have jobs in
cool air-conditioned rooms. The hot-stone therapy can help cure many diseases, including back pain.
28. What do people use to release toxins in our body according to the text?
A. Washing the body with cold water. B. Relaxing muscles
C. Discharging lots of sweat. D. Lying on the warm beds.
29. What can we know from the text?
A. Sports have greater effects on the health than hot-stone massage.
B. People should take advantage of summer to improve their health.
C. Using water of about 45˚C to wash the body is good for the health.
D. There are no toxins and humidity in the body in summer.
30. What can be learned about the hot-stone therapy?
A. It was invented by Mary Nelson, an American.
B. It is popular with people with its excellent effects.
C. It successfully cured many people of cancer.
D. It can help people avoid sweating too much in hot summer.
31. What’s the writer’s purpose in writing the passage?
A. To explore the origin and development of the hot-stone therapy.
B. To show how to live comfortably in summer.
C. To share a healthy and comfortable lifestyle.
D. To introduce the amazing functions of the hot-stone therapy.第 六 页 共 十 页

The bathroom was one of the few places that technology had not been very successful in
entering, but with Japanese smart toilets gaining in popularity around the world, this last bastion(堡
垒) is about to fall. And if you’re wondering what makes smart toilets so special, just check out the
smartest of them all, the Toto Neorest NX2.
Quite frankly, there’s not a lot this toilet can’t do. It automatically lifts the seat as you approach
it, and if you program it , it can even heat up the toilet seat instantly, so that your legs don’t feel cold
when you sit on it. Once you’ve finished your “business”, you don’t need to use toilet paper to clean
yourself, as the Neorest is more than happy to do it for you with gentle beams of purified water. And
since leaving you with a wet behind（屁股）just isn’t very practical, the smart toilet also features a
built-in dryer.
There’s no need to grab a can of deodorant（除臭剂）and spray it all around you to cover bad
smells as the Neorest NX2 also has its own deodorizer. Toto’s ‘Tornado Flush’ has been completely
redesigned to not only be more effective in removing waste from the bowl, but also clean the surfaces
most difficult to reach. The NX2 uses ionized(电离的) eWater+, which is basically electrolized water
with cleaning and antibacterial functions, and if that doesn’t get everything perfectly clean, the
ultraviolet light （紫外线）technology definitely will. You’ll never have to clean this thing, at least
not on the inside, because it cleans itself.
And you never even have to touch its lid, as it comes down as soon as you step away from it.
But the world’s most advanced smart toilet isn’t cheap. You’ll have to pay around $11,000 for it when
it hits the US market, this summer. Worth it? Certainly, now if only I could afford it.
32.What can be inferred from Paragraph 1?
A. Smart toilet are nothing special.
B. Smart toilets are widespread in Japan.
C. Bathroom technology used to be rare.
D. The Toto Neorest NX2 isn’t a smart toilet.
33. What can the Toto Neorest NX2 do for its users?
A. Dry them after cleaning them with cold water.
B. Heat up the toilet seat when programmed.
C. Lift the toilet seat once they enter the bathroom.
D. Pass them toilet paper once they finished.
34. The NX2 can surely get everything perfectly clean with the help of____.
A. deodorizer B. Tornado Flush C. ionized e Water+ D. ultraviolet light
35. Which of the following statements about the NX2 reflects the author’s opinion?
A.Its services don’t come at a low cost. B.It is affordable to him.
C.It is well received by Americans. D.It isn’t well worth the money.

According to a sales report from askci.com on 2018's Double Eleven, the national shopping day,
women's down garments(羽绒服)were among the top 10 hit products.
Statistics show that down garments have been popular for many years in both northern and
southern China. 36 Especially during a fiercely cold winter, when you tremble in the wind, who
cares about being stylish? 37 -- the very light from heaven, which down garments can provide
you with.
As living standards rise, more expensive garments filled with goose down instead of duck down,
have appeared in the market.
Goose or duck? 38 First, the down from mature geese is larger and thicker, which makes
garments filled with goose down much warmer. Second, goose down is more flexible than that of
ducks. 39 Goose down has no strange smell. Geese are often “vegetarians” and eat clean,while
ducks are omnivorous(杂食的), which could give their feathers a strong smell. 40
However, duck down is still a good choice if you live in a place where winter is windy, yet not
that cold.
A. The last difference is key for people sensitive to smells.
B. All you need is warmth.
C. How to choose your down garment?
D. It seems the strong warmth provided by down garments has been nationally approved.
E. You may like goose garment better.
F. What's the difference between the down from these two creatures?
G. These are the advantages that account for the higher prices of garments made with goose down.
