分析句子可知，“人工智能击败韩国顶尖围棋选手”是发生在“人们相信人类定会获胜”之前。

因为“人们相信人类定会获胜（were still confident ）”为一般过去时，因此从defeat是发生过去的过去，要用过去完成时，故填had defeated，因此选B。

I was pleased to hear from you and am writing to tell you something about my school. You are right. Great changes have taken place in my school in the past three years.It is no longer what it was three years ago，when there was only a teaching building and a playground. I’m happy to tell you that two buildings have been built and are in use now. One of them is a new teaching building, in which there are rooms for music, art and computer teaching. The other is the library, where there are all kinds of books, newspapers and magazines. Besides, my school is well equipped with sports facilities. The number of the students has also grown from 1,000 to 2,000.What’s more, we have planted a lot of trees in and around the school.
I believe my school will become better and better, and I hope you will visit my school again.

三、阅读理解
20. It was a hot summer's day many years ago. I had just returned from town where I had bought my children their school shoes for the new term. When we arrived home, all the goods were dropped in the hallway and we all got iced drinks and cooled down.
The electricity man arrived to take a meter reading. I had known in the past that they were required a mere 3 minutes for each meter reading. The man arrived at my door, I knew he was busy but I had to invite him in for a cool drink and shade from the very hot day. My children were delighted; they loved seeing kindness.
I invited him in and he agreed to sit, have a cool drink and just for a while. He told me something no one should ever be able to tell another person. It was about his son, his only beautiful child.
His son had a friend who called by often. The father would let the friend in and trustingly let the friend go up to his son. He could never have known how deadly this one particular visit would be.
As l listened to a broken hearted and destroyed man, I heard how the friend was always borrowing money for drugs, which the father did not know. On this terrible day, his son would not give his "friend" any money and he was killed in his own bedroom!
This man was destroyed. The man probably felt he broken his son’s safe space, a thought that will remain with him forever.
My tridents, we never know what others carry around with on a daily basis. Sometimes showing a little love, kindness and sympathy can touch people in ways we could never have imagined.

25. What do you know about the electricity man?

B. He was easy to let out secrets.

B. He liked to borrow money.
C. He cheated the electricity man.
D. He depended on his friend for a living.
27. How did the electricity man feel about his son’s death?

B. He should kill the bad man.
C. His son made a bad friend.

21. Like all big cities, Paris has a traffic problem: lots of cars, lots of traffic jams (阻塞) and lots of pollution from exhaust fumes (废气). So the city began a scheme (计划) to improve the situation.
Under the Velib scheme (‘Velib’ comes from vélo liberté, or ‘bicycle freedom’) people can take a bicycle, use it for as long as they want, and then leave it at the same or another bicycle station. The first half-hour on the bike is f ree, but if you don’t return it after 30 minutes, you have to pay. But it’s only €1 a day or €29 a year! The bicycles are heavy (25 kg), and they are all grey and have baskets. There are about 20,000 of them in the city, and around 1,450 bicycle stations. So there are a lot more Velib stations than the 298 subway stations!
Paris is not the first city to have a scheme like this. But not everybody thinks it’s a great idea. One Parisian said, ‘These bicycles are only for short journeys. If people want to trave l across the city, they won’t use a bicycle —they’ll still use their cars.’
A city spokesman said, “The bicycle scheme won’t solve all our traffic problems, of course. But it might help reduce air pollution. Traffic, together with factory fumes, is a big problem. There aren’t any simple answers to traffic problems and pollution in cities. But unless we do something now, there will be more traffic jams and temperatures will continue to rise, so the problems in our environment will get worse. The bikes might help people to lead a healthier life, too.”
28. What can we learn about the Velib scheme?
A. Its bikes have no baskets.
B. Its bikes are light and color1 ful.
C. It aims to make traveling easier.
D. It owns more stations than the subway.
29. If you use a Velib for 1 hour, you should pay _____.
A. €1
B. €30
C. €29
D. no money
30. Why do some people disagree with the Velib scheme?
A. The cost is rather high.
B. It’s hard to find a Velib station.
C. It’s not suitable for a long journey.
D. The distance between two Velib stations is long.
31. What’s the city spokesman’s attitude towards the bicycle scheme?
A. Doubtful.
B. Positive.
C. Uncaring.
D. Worried.
参考答案：
28. D 29. A 30. C 31. B
