18、OMEDY MAGIC SHOW D. THE MENTALIST, GERRY MCCAMBRIDGEB Given the tradition of students bringing apples to their teachers, it somehow seems fitting that an old apple barn(谷倉(cāng))will find a new life as a one-room schoolhouse. And it is jut as fitting that a retired schoolteacher will become the caretaker

19、of that historic treasure. My friend Velma, a teacher for more than 30 years, has been retired for some time now, but that doesnt stop her giving history lessons at the old Englewood School, located on her familys California farm. The lovingly restored building was constructed around 1850 as a home

20、for a woodsman and later was used as apple barn. Then , in 1870 it began a new life as a schoolhouse. Originally located in the nearby Englewood meadow, it was now moved its current site in 1978 by Velmas late husband and his brother, Robert and Richard, who thought it would help keep Velma busy in

21、retirement. No nails had been used in the original construction, so each piece of wood had to be carefully marked and the building was reassembled（重裝）on its new site. The brothers worked with much care and hard work to ensure a perfect fit of mitered（斜接的）corners. After the relocation, Velma and her

22、family furnished the school with some of its original desks. They also added a collection of schoolbooks, the oldest dating back to 1845. Perhaps the schools most cherished souvenir is the diploma of student Hettie Essig, who graduated on June 30, 1904. Hetties daughter, Flora, presented Velma with

23、the precious keepsake. Nowadays Velma gives tours to local schoolchildren and other groups, who learn what it was like to attend school back in the good old days. She has kids ring the school bell, recite the Pledge of Allegiance and sing “Good Morning to You” as they might have done in days gone by

24、. Then, with twinkling eyes and much enthusiasm, she tells the history of the school, and gives a short sample lesson.24. The Englewood School was originally built as _. A. a man s house B. a schoolhouse C. a restroom D. an apple barn25. Which word can best describe the school s being relocated ? A.

25、 Inspiring B. Refreshing C. fashionable D. Challenging26. What does the underlined part “the precious keepsake” in Para.4 mean ? A. The schools original supplies B. The collection of schoolbooks C. The oldest schoolbook D. The diploma of Hettie Essig.27. Which can serve as the best title of the pass

26、age ? A. The Good Old Days in the Schoolhouse B. A Mysterious Building with a Long History C. A Historic One-room Schoolhouse D. A Teacher Devoted to Restoring Old BuildingsC The sharing economy, represented by companies like Airbnb or Uber, is the latest fashion craze. But many supporters have over

27、looked the reality that this new business model is largely based on escaping regulations and breaking the law.Airbnb is an Internet-based service that allows people to rent out spare rooms to strangers for short stays. Uber is an Internet taxi service that allows thousands of people to answer ride r

28、equests with their own cars. There are hundreds of other such services. The good thing about the sharing economy is that it promotes the use of underused resources. Millions of people have houses or apartments with empty rooms, and Airbnb allows them to profit from these rooms while allowing guests

29、a place to stay at prices that are often far less than those charged by hotels. Uber offers prices that are competitive with standard taxi prices and their drivers are often much quicker and more trustworthy. But the downside of the sharing economy has gotten much less attention. Most cities and sta

30、tes both tax and regulate hotels, and the tourists who stay in hotels are usually an important source of tax income. But many of Airbnbs customers are not paying the taxes required under the law. Airbnb can also raise issues of safety for its customers and trouble for hosts neighbors. Hotels are reg

31、ularly inspected to ensure that they are not fire traps and thatthey dont form other risks for visitors. Airbnb hosts face no such inspections. Since Airbnb is allowing people to escape taxes and regulations, the company is simply promoting thefts. Others in the economy will lose by bearing an addit

32、ional tax burden or being forced to live next to an apartment unit with a never-ending series of noisy visitors.The same story may apply with Uber. Uber is currently in disputes over whether its cars meet the safety and insurance requirements imposed on standard taxis. Also, if Uber and related serv

33、ices flood the market, they could harm all taxi drivers ability to earn a minimum wage.This downside of the sharing needs to be taken seriously, but that doesnt mean the current tax and regulatory structure is perfect.28. What is the positive thing about the sharing economy? A. It is a global trend.

34、 B. It is beyond regulations. C. It draws on spare resources. D. It brings in modest profits.29. What is the problem with Airbnb customers according to the passage?A. They are not regularly inspected.B. They are likely to commit thefts.C. They are allowed not to pay taxes.D. They can be noisy to hos

Whether it lowers customers expenses. D. Whether it can compete with standard taxis.31. What will be talked about in the following paragr

36、aphs?A. Existing regulations and laws.B. Necessary improvements of current laws.C. Further development of Airbnb and Uber. D. More downsides of Airbnb and Uber.D Jeremy Kerr, a researcher at the University of Ottawa in Canada, and his colleagues analyzed more than 400,000 observations of bumblebee s

37、pecies collected in North America and Europe from 1975 to 2010. When the researchers recorded the locations of these bee populations, they found that many of the 67 species analyzed were moving northward from their southern limits while the northern edges of the bees ranges are staying in place. Wha

38、t it results in is obvious.Bees have been paid more attention to in recent years, with populations of honeybees and bumblebees obviously declining in some parts of Europe. Previously, attention on the decline of bee populations has focused on causes including habitat loss, pesticide use and the spre

39、ad of bee parasites(寄生蟲(chóng)). But the work by Kerrs team found something different.For every species, there is one or two species declining and others that are not moving at all, says Kerr. This shift has also been observed in other species, such as butterflies. But due to a new cause the rise of temper

40、atures instead of total pesticide use, a change in land use or parasites, bumblebees unlike butterflies have failed to extend the northern boundaries of their ranges into the territory that is now habitable for them, so bumblebee species across Europe and North America are declining rapidly, the lat

41、est study led by Kerrs team finds.Our data suggest that the new factor plays a leading, or perhaps the leading, role in this trend, says Kerr.This study shows that a fourth factor is also beginning to affect it. It is likely that the combined stresses from all of these pressures will have destructiv

42、e impacts on bumblebees in the not-too-distant future, says Dave Goulson, a bee researcher at the University of Sussex, Brighton, UK.Exactly what can be done to help bumblebees is not clear. Kerrs team suggests that relocating colonies might be an answer but Goulson says that because the insects are

43、 mobile they are capable of moving northwards if there is suitable habitat available.32What does the move of the bees southern limits lead to?A. The birth of new bee species. B. The rise of the bees population.C. The evolution of the bees. D. The reduction of the bees habitat.33Whats the new cause o

44、f bee populations declining according to Kerr?A. Habitat loss. B. Pesticide use.C. Climate change. D. The spread of bee parasites.34Which statement may Goulson agree with?A. Relocating bumblebees isnt much good.B. The findings of Kerrs study are doubtful.C. The future of bumblebees is still promisin
