15、 people work?Nothing is more refreshing on a warm summer day than watching someone else work.Right now,I m sitting on my porch and watching young Beth baling（打捆）the big field on top of the hill.She s been haying that field for over ten years.I know:I put her on the tractor when she was just twelve y
16、ears old.She picked a great day for baling.It s not too hot,and there s a nice breeze.On Monday,when she cut the field,it was so hot I thought the corn would start popping in the field.Didn t stop her,though.She just stuck that big hat on her head,wrapped a wet handkerchief around her neck,and set t
17、o work.I remember when I would have done the same thing.While I m here sucking a lemonade,Beth is driving the“hay(干草)train,”a tractor pulling a baler and an old wagon.You d think someone her size would never be able to see over the tractor.But somehow she manages.When she s finished,her tracks are v
18、ery straight.The whole time she s haying,that dog of hers is working just as hard,running along beside 2020届北京市八中2017级高三下学期自主测试（二）英语试卷英语第 4 页（共 10 页）her like he s afraid she ll drive away without him.Beth sure knew what she was doing when she trained him.The way the machine works is pure poetry.Each
19、 row is pushed into shape.When just enough hay is in a bale,it is wrapped up and fastened together.A second or so later,the bale comes flying out and into the old wagon.The person who invented that machine sure was some kind of genius.That s not to say it works perfectly.Every once in a while a bale
20、 misses the mark,especially when you are turning the machine at the end of a row.That means,of course,that you have to go back and pick up those bales and throw them into the wagon.I can remember when Beth s mother was her age.She looked an awful lot like Beth does now.Makes a man proud to see his d
21、aughter and granddaughter taking such good care of themselves.Well,I suppose I should get up and fill this glass again.Not much fun sitting here with an empty glass.31.We can learn from the passage that at some time in the past the author _.A.bought the tractor for Beth B.forced Beth to work at an e

24、ype of aggressive driving.You have most likely encountered aggressive driving or Road Rage recently if you drive at all.While drunk driving remains a critical problem,the facts about aggressive driving are surely as disturbing.For instance,according to the National Highway Transportation Safety Asso
25、ciation,41,907 people died on the highway last year.Of those deaths,the agency estimates 英语第 5 页（共 10 页）that about two-thirds were caused at least in part by aggressive driving behavior.Why is this phenomenon occurring more than ever now,and why is it something that seemed almost nonexistent a few s
26、hort years ago？Experts have several theories,and all are probably partially correct.One suggestion is sheer overcrowding.In the last decade,the number of cars on the roads has increased by more than 11 percent,and the number of miles driven has increased by 35 percent.However,the number of new road
27、miles has only increased by 1 percent.That means more cars in the same amount of space;and the problem is magnified in urban areas.Also,people have less time and more things to do.With people working and trying to fit extra chores and activities into the day,stress levels have never been higher.Stre
28、ss creates anxiety,which leads to short tempers.These factors,when combined in certain situations,can spell Road Rage.You may think you are the last person who would drive aggressively,but you might be surprised.For instance,have you ever yelled out loud at a slower driver,sounded the horn long and
29、hard an another car,or sped up to keep another driver from passing？If you recognize yourself in any of these situations,watch out!Whether you are getting angry at other drivers,or another driver is visibly upset with you,there are things you can do to avoid any major conflict.If you are easily influ
30、enced by Road Rage,the key is to discharge your emotion in a healthy way.If you are the target of another drivers rage,do everything possible to get away from the other driver safely,including avoiding eye contact and getting out of their way.35.The first sentence in Para.1 implies that _.A.one may
31、be angered by media reports and wants to avoid them B.the media coined the term Road Rage only a few months ago C.Road Rage has received much media coverage in the last few months D.people not interested in the media know little about recent happenings 36.The underlined word“spell”in Para.3 means _.
32、A.relieve B.cause C.spread D.prevent 37.Which of the following characterizes aggressive driving?A.Talking while driving.B.Driving at high speed.C.Sounding the horn when passing.D.Shouting at another driver.38.The last paragraph is intended to _.A.tell people how to deal with Road Rage B.inform peopl
33、e how aggressive drivers could be 2020届北京市八中2017级高三下学期自主测试（二）英语试卷英语第 6 页（共 10 页）C.show people how to control themselves when angry D.warn people against eye contact with another driver C Smartphone Security Blankets Security for the information on your smartphone,as well as for the phone itself is a
34、 hot topic these days.The truth is that you re packing a lot of sensitive information on your phone,and you should keep it safe.When it comes to physical security,iPhone users would do well to download Find My iPhone,a free app(application program)from Apple that allows you to visit a website and se
35、e your(lost,stolen or misplaced)phone on a map.You can then sound an alarm,send a message that will pop up on its screen,lock the phone or erase all your data.Android does not have an exact equivalent,but there are plenty of alternatives.A free app called Lookout offers the find-my-phone feature.The
36、 paid version allows you to wipe the data from your phone remotely.Then there is your coffee shop s WiFi network.Anyone with minimal technical expert skill can snoop on（窥视）people using shared wireless networks,harvesting passwords and other personal data.Lookout s apps will caution you when you ve l
37、ogged on to an unsecure network,but cannot protect you once you re there.In order to protect yourself on such networks,you can use a virtual private network,or V.P.N.This turns all your activity into nonsense to anyone trying to read along with you from across the Starbucks.It also keeps websites fr
38、om tracking you and,if you re traveling,allows you to get access to sites that may be blocked in other countries.If you have an iPhone,the simplest V.P.N.app is probably Hotspot Shield,whose distinguishing feature is said to be that it automatically kicks in each time you start browsing(浏览),as oppos
39、ed to other V.P.N.apps that require you to start them up manually.This matters,because even if you decide you want a V.P.N.app,you want to spend approximately zero time thinking about it.For the most part,that was true of Hotspot Shield,though occasionally it took a while to connect or temporarily l
40、ost connection without warning.I found myself having to turn the app on and off sometimes,which involved setting my phone constantly.If even reading about the settings on your phone drives you crazy,then it is probably best to stay away from a V.P.N.app.But if you re the type who can t resist checki
41、ng your bank balance from your corner bar,the hassle may be preferable to the risk.英语第 7 页（共 10 页）39.Which of the following can warn you against the unsecure network?A.Android.B.V.P.N.C.Lookout.D.Find My iPhone.40.By using V.P.N.,users can _.A.find their lost phone on the Internet B.erase all the da

43、ime thinking about it D Why are people interested in eating raw foods or whole foods?One reason is that eating these types of food reduces the risk of acid accumulation in your body.Raw and whole foods are usually digested more efficiently than cooked and refined foods.When we cook foods,we destroy
44、the natural enzymes(酶)that are part of the food in its raw form.These enzymes were intended by nature to help us digest the food.When we consume food without these natural enzymes,our bodies either digest the food improperly or allow too many nutrients to be absorbed into the bloodstream.In both ins
45、tances,the result is obesity.When too many nutrients are absorbed at once,the body grows fat.Improperly digested food moves slowly through the digestive tract,where it becomes increasingly acidic.To protect its vital organs from this acidic waste,the body changes the acid into fat and stores it safe
46、ly away from the organs.Processed foods contain chemical elements,which might confuse the appetite mechanism that tells us when we ve had enough to eat;as a result,people often overeat.Processed foods also upset the digestive cycle.The body will either identify these foods as allergens and then stor
47、e them safely away from the organs as fat,or the remains of undigested food will become acidic and enter the bloodstream as acid waste,which will stick to the blood vessel walls and block the passage of vital oxygen and nutrients heading for the body s cells.The body s metabolism(新陈代谢)becomes inacti
48、ve,and the result is weight gain and obesity.The accumulation of acid in the digestive tract makes digestion increasingly inefficient.When that happens,even healthy foods can become acidic and the food allergies will become 2020届北京市八中2017级高三下学期自主测试（二）英语试卷英语第 8 页（共 10 页）more common.To stop this vicio
49、us circle in its tracks,people need to consume food and supplements that will neutralize the acid already accumulated in body.Eating the right types of raw and whole foods can help.It s also important to restore your enzyme balance.You need to identify and avoid the foods that cause acid accumulatio
50、n and consume the foods that increase enzyme production.If you truly want to change and help your body heal itself,you need to take an active approach.42.It can be inferred from Para.2 that _.A.foods with natural enzymes help people keep fit B.we d better be cautious about raw and whole foods C.it i
