AAn Oceans VacuumThere’s a collection of plastic trash in the middle of the Pacific Ocean. It’s bigger than Texas-and growing. The way to clean it up now is to catch it with nets. That is both costly and slow. Instead, the Ocean Cleanup Project proposes 62-mile-long floating barriers that would use natural currents to trap trash. If next year’s trials succeed, a full cleanup operation would aim to start in 2020. It could reduce the trash by 42% over 10 years.Easy-On ShoesIn 2012, Mathew Walzer, a high school student with a disability, sent a note to Nike. “My dream is o go to college,” he wrote, “without having to worry about someone coming to tie my shoes every day.”Nike assigned a design team to the challenge. This year, they came out with their solution: the FlyEase. The basketball shoe can be fastened with one hand. A pair of Nike FlyEase shoes sells for $130.An Airport for Drones(无人机)As Amazon, Google, and others get ready for drone delivery service, there is one big question: what kinds of home bases will their drones have? Rwanda, in Africa, may have the answer. There, workers will soon start work on three “drone ports”. The goal is to make it easier to transport food, medical supplies, electronics, and other goods through the hilly countryside. Construction is set to be completed in 2020.21.What’s the advantage of the Oceans Vacuum?A. It can be a money-saverB. It can grow year by yearC. It can tear plastic into piecesD. It can be put into wide use soon22.What do we know about Nike?A. It offers free shoes to the disabledB. It is designing new shoes frequentlyC. It provides customer-friendly servicesD. It responded to Matthew’s request passively23.Why is Rwanda setting up “drone ports”?A. Because road travel there is roughB. Because there are too many dronesC. Because they’re easier to construct than roadsD. Because they are receptive to new technologyBI grew up in a troubled home in the 1970s, on the outskirts of downtown Orlando, Florida. Not far away, a three-story house attracted my eyes.It was nothing like the one I lived in with my mother, a small dark place with rules about befriending others. “Don’t. Never, ever talk to anyone,” my mother said.One day, in sixth grade, a black-haired woman was introduced to our class: Mrs. Reese. Reese explained that she was starting Spanish Club. She invited anyone interested in learning Spanish language and culture to stay after school.I could not take my eyes off her bracelets(手镯) and shining rings. The bell rang, and to my shock, no one went up to Mrs. Reese. I was under strict orders to go straight home. But that day, I stayed. I asked Mrs. Reese when the club started.“We could begin right now if you like,”she said with a smile. I felt beautiful. That day I learned that the house of my dreams was her house. I learned how to answer questions about my age and my favorite food in Spanish. And I learned, Do you want to come over tomorrow for cooking lessons?I wanted to say “Yes”, but Mom’s words held me back.I begged my mother all summer and into fall, well after Spanish Club had dissolved. I wept at night sometimes, so worried that Mrs. Reese and her family would move away.At some point, I managed to wear my mother down and one Saturday afternoon. I rode out to Mrs. Reese’s house.The details of that afternoon are marked in my mind: We had tea. She painted my toenails red. We made a garlicky picadillo. We spoke in Spanish. In Spanish, my voice was loud and romantic. This is the real me! I remember thinking.My mother never permitted me another visit to Mrs. Reese’s house. But four decades later, I still remember that day and the life she showed me, proof of a possible future.24.What kind of family was the author from?A. Hard-upB. Two-parentC. Stress-freeD. Disease-ridden25.Why did the author choose to join the club?A. She wanted to stay longer at schoolB. She intended to comfort Mrs. ReeseC. She was deeply attracted by Mrs. ReeseD. She hoped to befriend the owner of her dreamt house26.The author went to Mrs. Reese’s house .A. with the help of her tearsB. while no one was noticingC. with her mother’s permissionD. just before the lady moved away27.What did the author gain from Mrs. Reese?A. The beauty of SpanishB. The wonder of a new worldC. The power of self-confidenceD. The importance of independenceCEnglish is full of colorful phrases to describe shyness. Someone shy might be called shrinking violet or a wallflower, while for especially nervous types we have the curious expression: they wouldn’t say boo to a goose.None of these are traditionally seen as positive descriptions, even if you like geese. In a culture of go-getting, high achievers, shy people don’t come first.Or that's what the self-help industry would have you believe. Bookshops are filled with vital tomes(巨著) that promise to help beat social fears and find success in life, love and business. That is why one book, Shrinking Violets: A Field Guide to Shyness, bucks the trend. It became a sudden success across English-language media recently for its new take-on shyness.Author Joe Moran says that despite struggling with shyness and longing for loneliness all his life, being shy can also be "a gift". Freed from the constant urge to participate and compete in social situations, people are liberated to look at the world in new ways, and gain fresh insights.Indeed, many of the world's great thinkers and artists are introverts(内向的人). Scientists Charles Darwin and Albert Einstein preferred their own company; actress Keira Knightley often finds herself tongue-tied at parties; and Harry Potter author JK Rowling claims she used to be too nervous to even borrow a pen.Moran told BBC Future: "I think shyness probably does turn you into an amateur anthropologist(人类学家), really-you are more likely to be an observer."So, while extroverts make all the noise, they don't necessarily have the best ideas.If you're shy, you've probably known this for a long time. You just don't shout about it.28.When someone is being called a wallflower, he is being .A. praised for his graceB. admired for his characterC. laughed at for his shynessD. told off for his nervousness29.The underlined phrase “bucks the trend” in Paragraph 2 probably means ””.A. going against the trend and succeedsB. changing the public idea completelyC. becoming unpopular and unacceptedD. becoming the major concern of people30.The author mentioned many famous shy people in order to .A. point out the harm shyness bringsB. disconnect shyness and successC. shows the reasons for shynessD. prove shyness contributes to science31.What is the author’s attitude towards shyness?A. OpposedB. IndifferentC. SupportiveD. CriticalDFrigatebirds seagoing fliers with a 6-foot wingspan, can stay aloft(up in the air) for weeks at a time, a new study has found.Since the frigatebird spends most of its life at sea, its habits outside of when it reproduces on land aren’t well-known-until researchers started tracking them around the Indian Ocean. What the researchers discovered is that the bird’s flying ability is unbelievable.Ornithologist(鸟类学家) Henri Weimerskirch put satellite tage(标签) on a couple of dozen frigatebirds. When the data started to come in, he could hardly believe how high the birds flew."First, we found, 'Whoa, 1,500 meters. Excellent,' " says Weimerskirch, "And after 2,000, after 3,000, after 4,000 meters-OK, at this altitude they are in freezing conditions, especially surprising for a tropical bird.""There is no other bird flying so high relative to the sea surface," he says. "It's the only bird that is known to intentionally enter into a cloud," Weimerskirch says. And not just any cloud-a soft, white cumulus cloud(积云). Over the ocean, these clouds tend to form in places where warm air rises from the sea surface. The birds take a ride on the current of rising air, all the way up to the top of the cloud.Frigatebirds have to find ways to stay aloft because they can't land on the water. Since their feathers aren't waterproof, the birds would drown in short order. They feed by harassing other birds in flight until they bring whatever fish they've swallowed back into their mouth and the frigatebird takes it.So in between meals, frigatebirds fly higher... and higher.In one case, for two months-continuously aloft.One of the tagged birds flew 40 miles without a wing-flap. Several covered more than 300 miles a day on average, and flew continuously for weeks. They are blessed with an unusual body. No bird has a larger wing surface area compared with body weight.32.How did researchers feel when data about frigatebirds reached them?A. CalmB. SurprisedC. HopefulD. Anxious33.According to the text, how can frigatebirds fly so high?A. By flying into a cloudB. With the help of researchersC. Thanks to advanced technologyD. By following other birds into the sky34.What does the underlined word ”they” in the text refer to?A. FrigatebirdsB. Other birdsC. Small fishD. Larger fish35.In what aspect are frigatebirds different from other birds?A. When they give birthB. What they feed onC. Their body weightD. Their wing surface area第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

But the other night an old woman shattered my belief that a glib(非诚恳的) response could smooth over the rough spots of dealing with other human beings.The moment she entered the store, the woman presented a sharp contrast to our shiny store with its bright lighting and neatly arranged shelves. On a zero-degree night, she was wearing only a faded print dress, a thin sweater too small to button, and black slippers with the backs cut out to expose heels. There were no stockings or socks on her blue-veined legs.After strolling around the store for several minutes, the old woman stopped in front of therows of canned vegetables. She picked up some corn niblets and stared with a strange intensity at the label. At that point, I decided to be a good employee and asked her if she needed help.“I need some food,” she muttered(嘟囔) in reply to my bright “Can I help you?”“Are you looking for corn, ma’am?”“I need some food,” she repeated. “Any kind. But I can’t pay.” She said.For a second, I was tempted to say, “Take the corn.” But the employee rules flooded into my mind. I responded dutifully, “ I’m sorry, ma’am, but I can’t give away anything for free.”The old woman’s face collapsed a bit more, and her hands trembled as she put the can back on the shelf. She shuffled(蹒跚) past me toward the door, her torn and dirty clothing barely covering her bent back.Moments after she left, I rushed out the door with the can of corn, but she was nowhere in sight. For the rest of my shift, the image of the woman kept coming to my mind. I had been young, healthy. She had been old, sick and desperate. Wishing with all my heart that I had acted like a human being rather than a robot, I was saddened to realize how fragile a hold we have on our better instincts(本能).4．What does the underlined world “shatter” in Paragraph 1 probably mean? A．Maintain. B．Hold.C．Break. D．Lose.5．What do we know about the old woman according to the text?A．She was attracted by the shiny store with neatly arranged shelves.B．She left the store in disappointment without any food.C．She declined the writer’s offer of a can of corn.D．She was very healthy and was not afraid of the cold weather.6．Why didn’t the writer give the old woman the food for free?A．He was actually very mean.B．He followed the employee rules.C．He disliked the woman’s appearance.D．He wanted to give her after she went out of the store.7．What’s the best title for the text?A．A Lady and I B．Working at A StoreC．Sadness D．If Only ……People speak English in different parts of the world. The same words can be used in different ways, depending on where you live. People can also have completely different ways of saying the same thing.The Oxford English Dictionary(OED) is asking the public to help it add new words. Editors want to find the regional differences in English around the world. They want to expand its record of the language.Last year, the OED, BBC Radio and the Forward Arts Foundation teamed up to find local words in the United Kingdom. It resulted in more than 100 regional words and phrases being added to the dictionary. One was “cuddy wifter”, which means a left-handed person.Now, the OED is widening its search to English speakers around the world. Eleanor Maier, an editor at OED, said the response has been great. Editors are listing a bunch of suggestions to include in the dictionary.These include Hawaii’s “hammajang”, which means “in a disorderly state”. Another is the word for a swimming costume, “dookers” or “duckers”. It is used in Scotland.Th e OED also might include the word “frog-drowner”, which Americans might use to describe a downpour of rain. Another possibility is “brick”. It means “very cold” to people in New Jersey and New York City.The dictionary has already found that, depending on location, a picture hanging off center might be described as “agley”. It might also be called “catawampous” or “ahoo”.“The OED aims to cover all types of English,” Maier said. That includes scientific words, slang and regional language. Maier also said th at it can be difficult for the OED’s editors to identify regional words. The terms are more often spoken than written down.The appeal is called Words Where You Are. It is looking for more suggestions. “We were surprised and pleased by the number of region al words we were able to include,” said Maier. 8．Which local word of the following is most likely from regions of the United Kingdom? A．cuddy wifter B．frog-drownerC．agley D．brick9．Which of the following statements is true?A．“Dookers” is closest in meaning to “freezing”.B．The Oxford English Dictionary is planning to add new words by itself.C．Some regional words are more often written down than spoken .D．The OED is searching for regional differences in English around the world.10．What can be inferred from the passage?A．It is challenging to create a complete collection of regional words.B．People are not committed to responding to the appeal for regional words. C．People use regional words only when they are home or with close friends. D．Having an understanding of regional words can be helpful when communicating. 11．Which of the following can best summarize the main idea of the passage?A．It’s time to trace the source of local words.B．The same English words can be used to say different things.C．Oxford Dictionary will include more regional words from around the globe. D．Oxford Dictionary aims to enlarge its collection to appeal to locals.DNA analysis has revealed family relationships between more than 10 generations of Stone Age people at megalithic (巨石的) tombs in Ireland and Sweden.The evidence suggests that megaliths, prehistoric large stone structures, sometimes acted as graves for family groups in northwestern Europe thousands of years ago. The latest findings throw new light on the origins and social structure of the groups that built megaliths in this region—a history that has long been hidden in mystery.For their study, the international team of researchers analyzed the genomes—the complete set of genetic material in a cell—of 24 Stone Age individuals from five megalithic burial sites in Ireland, Scotland and Gotland, a large Swedish island in the Baltic Sea.This analysis showed that many of the individuals buried at each megalith, who all lived between 3,800 B．C．and 2,600 B．C．, according to radiocarbon-dating of their remains, were closely related via family ties.The results also showed that the individuals buried at the megaliths were related to Neolithic farmers in northern and western Europe but genetically distinct from other hunter-gatherers. This was particularly noticeable at the Ansarve site on the island of Gotland.“The people buried in the Ansarve tomb are remarkably different on a genetic level compared to the individuals dug out from hunter-gather contexts, showing that the burial tradition in this megalithic tomb, which lasted for over 700 years, was performed by distinct groups with roots in the European Neolithic expansion,” Magdalena Fraser, co-first author from Uppsala University, said in the statement.12．Wh at’s the significance of the new findings?A．It reveals the family ties between people in Ireland and Sweden.B．It implies that many people buried in the tombs were closely related.C．It indicates the long-hidden mystery concerning DNA analysis.D．It suggests that the megaliths became tombs thousands of years ago.13．How did the researchers reach their findings?A．By interviewing individuals. B．By travelling to different regions. C．By analyzing genes. D．By studying the burial sites. 14．Which is true according to the latest findings?A．Some people buried in the tombs were related to farmers.B．Few people buried in the tombs were genetically different.C．All the people buried at megaliths had family relationships.D．People buried in the Ansarve tomb were dug out 700 years later.15．What’s the main idea of this passage?A．Megaliths served as tombs thousands of years ago.B．People buried at the megaliths were recently analyzed.C．Latest findings shed light on a mystery about burials.D．Stone-Age people in Ireland and Sweden had close ties.二、七选五The world is a colorful landscape of different languages, skin colors, and different cultures. It's important to have a good understanding of different cultures in order to become a well-rounded person16．One way is to read books written by authors from a particular culture. Reading works by authors who have a close relationship with a particular culture allows people to gain an authentic glimpse into the food, music, language, religion, and way of a life of a particular group of people.17．Another way to learn about different cultures is to try to learn a foreign language.18．A person can choose a language she has always wanted to learn and locate learning programs to help her master the language. Besides, one can enroll in a foreign language class in order to learn in a more formal setting. One can also try to visit areas of the city to establish socialconnection with native speakers of the language.19．Seek out restaurants that feature authentic food from a variety of countries. Food is an important part of different cultures and allows people to gain deep understanding into a particular cultural group's way of life.Communicating with people from other countries through email or snail mail is another useful way to become familiar with different cultures.20．Various websites offer pen pal services, offering to connect individuals with pen friends around the world.A．Trying authentic food from a specific cultural group is also a great idea.B．The Internet has made it possible to communicate with others from different countries. C．Making contact with native speakers of the language allows one to gain firsthand knowledge.D．There are several ways to become knowledgeable about different cultures.E.Stories based on a local culture expose one to a different culture.F.One way to develop this appreciation is to try to team about other cultures around the world.G.A variety of language-learning books, software, and audio programs is available.三、完形填空My father was born in a small town in the US.

And he loves it.Arthur Bonner works with the Palos V erdes blue butterfly, once thought to have died out. T oday the butterfly is coming back — thanks to him. But years ago if you‘d told him this was what he‘d be doing someday, he would have laughed, ―You‘r e crazy.‖ As a boy, he used to be ―a little tough guy on the streets‖. At age thirteen, he was caught by police stealing. At eighteen, he landed in prison for shooting a man.― I knew it had hurt my mom,‖Bonner said after he got out of prison. ―So I told myself I would not put my mom through that pain again.‖One day he met Professor Mattoni, who was working to rebuild the habitat(栖息地) for an endangered butterfly called El Segundo blue.― I saw the sign ‗Butterfly Habitat‘ and asked, ‗How can you have a habitat when the butterflies can just fly away?‘‖Bonner recalls. ― Dr. Mattoni laughed and handed me a magnifying glass(放大镜) , ‗Look at the leaves.‘ I could see all these caterpillars(蝴蝶的幼虫) on the plant. Dr Mattoni explained, ‗Without the plant, there are no butterflies.‘‖Weeks later, Bonner received a call from Dr. Mattoni, who told him there was a butterfly that needed help. That was how he met the Palos V erdes blue. S ince then he‘s been working for four years to help bring the butterfly back. He grows astragalus, the only plant the butterfly eats. He collects butterflies and brings them into a lab to lay eggs. Then he puts new butterflies into the habitat.The butterfly‘s population, once almost zero, is now up to 900. For their work, Bonner and Dr. Mattoni received lots of awards. But for Bonner, he earned something more: he turned his life around.For six years now Bonner has kept his promise to stay out of prison.

That is a new solution to laptop computer theft : a program that lets owners give their property a voice when it has been taken.The program allows users to display alerts on the missing computer‘s screen and even to set a spoken message. Tracking software for stolen laptops has been on the market for some time, but this is thought to be the first that allows owners to give the thie f a p iece o f the ir mind.Owners must report their laptop missing by visiting a website, which sends a message to the model: a red and yellow ―lost or stole n‖ sign appears on its screen when it is started. Under the latest version（版本）of the software, users can also send a spoken message.The message can be set to reappear every 30 seconds, no matter how many times the thief closes it.‖ One customer sent a message saying,‘ Y ou are being tracked. I am right at your door‘,‖ said Carrie Hafeman, chief executive of the company which produces the program, Retriever.In the latest version, people can add a spoken message. For example, the laptop‘s speakers will say: ―Help, this laptop is reported lost or stolen. If you are not my owner, report me now.‖The Retriever software package, which costs $29.95 but has a free trial period, has the functions of many security software programs. Owners can remotely switch to an alternative password if they fear that the thief has also got hold of the access details.If a thief accesses the internet with the stolen laptop, Retriever will collect information on the internet service provider in use, so that the police can be alerted to its locatio n.Thousands of laptops are stolen every year from homes and offices, but with the use of laptops increasing, the number stolen while their owners are out and about has been rising sharply.Other security software allows users to erase data remotely or lock down the computer.28. The expression ―to give the thief a piece of their mind ―can be understood as―‖A. to give the thief an alert mind.B. to make the thief give up his mind .C. to remind the thief of this conscience.D. to express the owners‘ anger to thethief.29. Different from other security software, Retriever can .A. record the stealing process.B. send a spoken message.C. lock down the computer remotely.D. help recognize the lost laptop.30. One function of the program is that it allows the owner toat a distance.A. change some access details for switching on the laptop.B. turn on the laptop by using the original password.C. operate the laptop by means of and alternative password.D. erase the information kept in the stolen laptop.31. Which of the following can best summarize the main idea of the passage?A. With no Retriever, thousands of laptops are stolen every year.B. Retriever has helped to find thieves and lost computers.C. A new software provides a means to reduce laptop theft.D. A new program offers a communication platform with the thief.DWhen something goes wrong，it can be very satisfying to say，‖Well, it‘s so-and-so‘s fault.‖ or ―I know I‘m late，but it‘s not my fault；the car broke down .‖It is probably not your fault，but once you form the habit of blaming somebody or something else for a badsituation，you are a loser. Y ou have no power and could do nothing that helps change the situation. However, you can have great power over what happens to you if you stopfocusing on whom to blame and start focusing on how to re me dy the situation. This is thewinner‘s key to success.Winners are great at overcoming problems. For example, if you were late because your car broke down, maybe you need to have your car examined more regularly. Or, you might start to carry along with you the useful phone numbers, so you could call for help when in need. For another example, if your colleague causes you problems on the job for lack of responsibility or ability, find ways of dealing with his irresponsibility or inability rather than simply blame the person. Ask to work with a different person, or don‘t rely on the person. Y ou should accept that the person. Ask to work with a different person, or don‘t rely on this person. Y ou should accept that the person is not reliable and find creative ways to work successfully regardless of how your colleague fails to do his job well.This is what being a winner is all about—creatively using your skills and talents so that you are successful no matter what happens. Winners don‘t have fewer problems in their lives; they have just as many difficult situations to face as anybody else. They are just better at seeing those problems as challenges and opportunities to develop their own talents. So, stop focusing on ―whose fault it is.‖ O nce you are confident about your power over bad situations, problems are just stepping stop on for success.32. According to the passage, winners .A. have responsible and able colleagues.B. meet with fewer difficulties in their lives.C. deal with problems rather than blame others.D. blame themselves rather tha n others.33..The underlined word remedy in Paragraph 1 is closest in meaning to .A. avoidB. acceptC. considerD. improve34. When your colleague brings about a problem, youshould .A. blame him for his lack of responsibility.B. find a better way to handle the problem.C. tell him to find the cause of the problem.D. ask a more able colleague for help.35. When problems occur, winners take them asA. chances for self-development.B. barriers to greater power.C. challenges to their colleagues.D. excuses for theirfailures.第二节（共5小题，每小题2分，满分10 分）根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，选项中有两项为多余选项。
