2． A young Dutch inventor is widening his effort to clean up floating plastic from the Pacific Ocean by moving into rivers，using his new floating machine to catch garbage before it reaches the seas.
On October 26，Boyan Slat presented his solar-powered device "Interceptor，" which removes plastic from rivers as it floats past.
"We need to close the tap，which means preventing more plastic from reaching the ocean in the first place，" he said，calling rivers "the arteries（动脉）that carry the trash from land to sea." Experts say 9 million tons of plastic waste，including plastic bottles，bags，and toys，flows annually into the ocean from rivers and streams，endangering life in the oceans.
The machine has a shaped nose to block away larger floating waste like tree trunks.It works by guiding plastic waste into an opening in its bow，a conveyor belt（转送带）then carries the trash into the machine where it is dropped into waste containers.It sends a text message to local operators who can come and empty it when it's full.
Three of the machines have already been put into practice in Indonesia，Malaysia and Vietnam.Malaysian government official lzham Hashim was present at the launch and said he was delighted to witness the project.
"It has been used for 2 months in the river and it's doing very well." Slat said.1，000 rivers are responsible for some 80 percent of plastic pouring into the world's oceans. "I want to settle them all in the next five years.This is not going to be easy，but imagine if we do get this done，" he told his enthusiastic supporters， "we'll truly make our oceans clean again."
Jan van Franeker of the Wageningen Marine Research Institute said the new machine looks promising. "They have finally moved toward the source of the litter，" he said in a telephone interview. "The design，from what I can see，is awesome."
（1）Why does the author quote Slat and experts' words in paragraph 3？
A．To stress the importance of rivers.
B．To prove the severity of the pollution.
C．To show their insight into the problem.
D．To explain the background of the invention.
（2）What is paragraph 4 mainly about？
A．The responsibility of the operator.
B．The function of the conveyor belt.
C．The working principle of the device.
D．The critical role of the shaped nose.
（3）Which of the following words best describe Slat？
A．Ambitious and innovative.
B．Optimistic and humorous.
C．Confident and honest.
D．Talented and proud.
（4）What does Franeker think of the new machine？
A．It takes time to improve.
B．It has a bright future.
C．Its design is disappointing.
D．Its appearance is attractive.组卷：2引用：2难度：0.5 -
3． Anyone can be late a handful of times，but to be the person who is always late - that's an art，a frustrating art.Or，a side effect of your personality traits，scientists have found.
So what is it that causes some people to constantly miss trains，make it to the wedding just after the bride's shown up and regularly annoy their friends？And why is it so hard for us to fix it？ "There are all sorts of punishments for being late，and the paradox is that we are late even when those punishments and consequences exist." said Justin Kruger，a social psychologist at New York University.
One of the commonest reasons why people are frequently late is that they fail to accurately judge how long a task will take - something known as the planning fallacy（谬误）.Research has shown that people on average underestimate the time to complete a task by a significant 40 percent.
Another trait is that forever -late-comers are more likely to be multitaskers.In a 2003 study run by Jeff Conte from San Diego State University found that out of 181 subway operators in New York City，those who preferred multitasking were more often late for their job.This is because multitasking makes it harder to have the awareness of what you're doing.Conte also discovered there is a personality type that's more likely to be late.While highly strung（紧张不安），achievement-oriented Type A individuals are more possible to be punctual.Type B individuals，however，who are more laid-back（漫不经心），have a higher chance to be late.
Admittedly，knowing all of this doesn't necessarily help fix the problem.But scientists are starting to work on strategies that can slowly improve our punctuality.For people who constantly underestimate tasks，breaking down an activity into detailed steps can help people estimate how long something will take more accurately.As for your personality type，unfortunately，there isn't much you can do to change that.But accepting that you need to struggle for it may just help.Acceptance，after all，is the first step to change.
（1）What does the underlined word "paradox" mean in paragraph 2？
A．Strategy.
B．Argument.
C．Solution.
D．Puzzle.
（2）What is a possible feature of forever-late-comers？
A．They plan to spend more time on a task.
B．They tackle more than one task at a time.
C．They suffer from concentration difficulties.
D．They have high expectations for achievements.
（3）Which advice can be given to people who are always late？
A．Learn to accept who you are.
B．Change your personality type.
C．Divide a task into smaller ones.
D．Keep to the timetable accurately.
（4）What is the main idea of the text？
A．Time management contributes to success.
B．Late comers should be severely punished.
C．One's always being late is linked to personality.
D．Changing personality helps improve punctuality.组卷：5引用：4难度：0.5

9．The whole class burst out laughing as Mohi rushed into the classroom.He was a strange sight.His half-buttoned white shirt revealed a red striped pajama（睡衣） top underneath，and instead of white school shoes，he had on a pair of bright green sandals that were two sizes too big.The physics teacher's hand froze in the middle of writing a formula on the blackboard.
Mohi murmured，"Sorry，teacher，"and rushed to his seat.Mr.Tan glared at the rest of the students.The chuckles（咯咯笑） quickly died down.Mohi's classmates always looked forward to Mondays.Nine times out of ten，they would be entertained by Mohi's late arrival and his odd appearance which usually included inappropriate clothing.That day，it was the pajama top and green sandals.
Mohi lived just a street away from the school.He walked to school daily.Students passing by in buses would yell his name at the same time just to see him jump and stop suddenly.When he spotted the merry crowd in the bus，he would wave good-naturedly.
Although Mohi was likable，he was too lost in his own thoughts to make friends.His classmates found him amusing but they ignored him most of the time.Only Hamed，who sat next to Mohi，tried to be his friend.
The following Monday，Mohi did not turn up at school.His classmates were a little disappointed but quickly forgot about him.After school，Hamed decided to walk over to Mohi's house to check on him.As he approached the gate，he could hear violin music.
"Mohi must be listening to music，since he had never played music at school."Hamed thought.He called Mohi's name a few times but there was no response.The gate was not locked.Hamed let himself in.The music played on.
注意：
1.续写词数应为150左右；
2.按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
As Hamed looked closely through a window，his eyes widened in surprise.___________
When Teacher's Day came around，Hamed convinced the class to let Mohi perform._____________组卷：8引用：5难度：0.6
