【題目】On the first day of his presidency, Donald Trump (特朗普) began making changes to the policies of earlier presidents.

A document released by the new Trump White House said the president would soon withdraw from the 12-nation Trans-Pacific Partnership trade agreement (12國跨太平洋伙伴貿(mào)易協(xié)定). The free trade deal was negotiated by the Obama(奧巴馬) administration.

The White House website said Trump would also work to renegotiate the North American Free Trade Agreement known as NAFTA.

"If our partners refuse a renegotiation that gives American workers a fair deal, then the President will give notice of the United States’ intent to withdraw from NAFTA," a White House statement said.

Neither action was a surprise. During the presidential campaign, Trump said bad trade deals had hurt employment in America.

The NAFTA agreement removed most tariffs(關(guān)稅) on products traded between the US, Canada and Mexico. It was signed by President Bill Clinton in 1993.

The Trump administration also said it is ready to cancel what it called, "harmful and unnecessary policies." Among them is the Obama administration’s plan to reduce pollutants from coal-powered electricity plants. The climate plan was designed to cut gases that cause global warming.

Another is a clean water rule to protect small waterways and wetlands(水域和濕地) from development by the Environmental Protection Agency.

Trump has said he wants to cancel and replace a third policy, the national health care law, known as "Obamacare."

The Trump administration has promised other major changes. In education, for example, there are plans to give parents more choice in selecting schools for their children, including private, religious schools.

【1】Who would have the U.S. withdraw from the free trade deal negotiated by the Obama administration?

A. The Obama administration.

2In which case will Donald Trump get the US continue to observe NAFTA?

A. Canada and Mexico agree to offer American workers a fair deal.

B. Canada and Mexico agree to renegotiate NAFTA.

In China, Yang Zhiqiao is 77 and has retired. She does the Mickey Mouse costume in Luoyang, Henan Province to earn some pocket money from passers-by, which she saves for her son. “My son is 40 and is still single. I don’t want to be a burden to him. I want to help him financially so he can get a wife,” Yang says.

According to an unrelated news story, parents in a Beijing suburb are getting up at 5 am each day and standing in line for shuttle buses. The early birds have developed this habit not for themselves, but for their grown-up children, who work in downtown Beijing. The youngsters have to spend four or five hours each day commuting and their parents chip in插嘴by waiting in line for them so they can squeeze an extra half hour of sleep.

However, children in the US will leave their parents when they grow up. They want to find better jobs, so they usually live far away from their parents. They often write to their parents or call them. And they go to visit their parents during their holidays.

Parents will ask their children to do some work around their house. In many families children will get money for doing some housework so that they can learn to make money on their own. Parents usually let their children choose their own jobs. Americans think that for young people it is important to decide on their lives by themselves.

【題目】Both men and women are living longer these days in industrialized countries. 1 In general, they can expect to live six or seven years more than men. One reason for this is biological.

One important biological factor that helps women live longer is the difference in hormones between men and women. 2 Between the ages of about 12 and 50, women produce hormones that are involved in fertility(生育能力). These hormones also have a positive effect on the heart and blood flow. In fact, women are less likely to have high blood pressure or to die from heart attacks.

3 They help the body defend itself against some kinds of infections. This means thatwomen generally get sick less often and less seriously than men. The common cold is a good example: women, on average, get fewer colds than men.

4 Scientists are still not exactly sure how influence aging, but they believe that they do. Some think that a woman’s body cells have a tendency(傾向) to age more slowly than a man’s. Others think that a man’s body cells have a tendency to age more quickly. 5

【題目】閱讀下列短文,從每題所給的四個選項(A、B、C和D)中,選出最佳選項。 The National DarkSky Week (NDSW) is a week during which people all over the United States turn off their lights to enjoy the beauty of the night sky without light pollution. This event was started by Jennifer Barlow of Midlothian, Virginia in 2003, and it is becoming more popular each year. It has been supported by the International DarkSky Association, the American Astronomical Society, and the Astronomical League.
This event always occurs in April, during the week of the new moon so that the sky can be as dark as possible for the best viewing conditions.
“It is my wish that people could see the night sky without other light in the sky as our ancestors saw it hundreds of years ago,” explains Barlow.
Since it only lasts a week and not everyone in the country will take part in it, how will the National DarkSky Week reduce light pollution? The main goal of NDSW is to increase awareness of the harmful effects of light pollution. It is not possible for all of the light pollution in this part of the world to disappear. However, it is possible to make a small difference in the quality of the night sky. Another goal of this event is to promote the use of better lighting systems that direct light toward the ground instead of up into the sky.
Jennifer Barlow states, “The night sky is a gift of such beauty that it should not be polluted by wasted light. In this way, our children will not lose touch with the wonder of our universe.”
(1)Which of the following statements about the National DarkSky Week is WRONG?
A.It is becoming more and more popular in America.
B.The event was started in 2003 by Jennifer Barlow.
C.The event takes place in the first week of every April.
D.American people are supposed to turn off their lights during that week.
(2)What is Jennifer Barlow's wish?
A.That light would be directed up into the sky.
B.That the sky would always be as dark as possible.
C.That people could see the night sky without light pollution as our ancestors did.
D.That people could spend time enjoying the beauty of the sky every night.
(3)What is the main goal of the National DarkSky Week?
A.To promote the use of better lighting systems.
B.To help people realize the harm of light pollution.
C.To cause all the light pollution in America to disappear.
D.To help young children enjoy the wonder of our universe.
