Challenging himself by learning Chinese might be anex-citing 3 ,but he admitted that learning the world's most spoken language by the number of native speakers is not a 4 in the park. “It's difficult but I don't find that challenging because I just persevere in the 5 ,” he said.Valerie,another student,said,“I 6 to learn Chinese because I wanted to learn a different culture.” The 14-year-old girl believes that with China's 7 global footprints,mastering the Chinese language means more advantages in the 8 job market.Patience Rusher,a Chinese teacher at Gateway High School,said there has been an increased uptake of the Chinese language since it was 9 to the school in 2018. She said mastering the Chinese languagehas 10 career opportunities for her,although the learning process hasbeen a challenging journey. The fascination with Chinese culturealso 11 many students to learn the language.“It's not easy. But with12 and keeping on trying and practicing,especially when it comes to character writing,there is no 13 to it except just practicing your characters every day,up until you understand and grasp them and they become a part of you,” she said.Given the increased economic 14 between Zimbabwe and China,the popularity of Chinese among Zimbabwean students will likely continueto 15 .1.

He doesn't wear plastic 8 ,but he always washes his hands.Eventually,he turns toward 9 ,usually going from Q Street over to Georgetown,where he drops in at a Starbucks on M Street for anAmericano—and 10 a fresh garbage bag.Starbucks 11 said they call Adams the “garbage guy”. They often have a bag ready for him wh en he visits the store. “The first time he came,I was 12 ,” said Ouches,the manager at the M Street Starbucks. “I thought,‘Why is he asking for trash bags every day?'”13 being puzzled by the request,Ouches would kindly give Adams a(n)14 bag upon each visit.

Lost in enjoying music,he didn't realize it.“By the time I 2 I realized,‘No,this bus is not going the right way. I'm not familiar with these 3 ,” he said.Running out of time,quickly to 4 another bus to the right place was almost impossible. The hurdler explained how he met a game volunteer who paid his taxi fare to get him to his 5 . Because of her,he made it with enough time to 6 —and then competed in the men's 110-meter racethat 7 him gold and his best time of the season.Parchment was determined to share the victory with the person who helped him.

Fifty years ago, only 4 out of every 100 people in the United States were 65 or older. Today, 10 out of every 100 Americans are over 65. The aging of the population will affect American society in many ways — education, medicine, and business. Quietly, the aging of America has made us a very different society — one in which people have a quite different idea of what kind of behavioris suitable at various ages.A person’s age no longer tells you anything about his/ her social position, marriage or health. There’s no longer a particular year in wh ich one goes to school or goes to work or gets married or starts a family. The social clock that kept us on time and told us when to go to school, get a job, or stop work ing isn’t as strong as it used to be. It doesn’t surprise us to hear of a 29-year-old university president or a 35-year-old grandmother, or a 70-year-old man who has become a father for the first time. Public ideas are changing.Many people say, “I am much younger than my mother or my father was at my age.” No one says “Act your age” any more. We’ve stopped looking with surprise at older people who act in youthful ways.1. It can be learned from the text that the aging of the population in America ________.A. has made people feel youngerB. has changed people’s social positionC. has changed people’s understanding of ageD. has slowed down the country’s social development2. The underlined word “one” refers to ________.A. a societyB. AmericaC. a placeD. population3. “Act your age” means people should ________.A. be active when they are oldB. do the right thing at the right ageC. show respect to their parents young or oldD. take more physical exercises suitable to their age4. If a’ 25-year-old man becomes general manager of a big firm, the writer of the text would most probably consider it _________.A. normalB. wonderfulC. unbelievableD. unreasonable1. C 主旨题。

完形填空Saddleworth Moor in the north of England is a deserted place. Though lying just a few miles from the city of Manchester, it feels remote. There is generally a strong wind blowing across the moor! It seemed almost ___1___to me, then, that anyone should be against the building of seven wind turbines (风力发电机)to produce clean, renewable energy. Surely this was the perfect place to situate them---basically dull, unattractive to tourists and--- ___2___---windy. Yet Saddleworth is becoming another ___3___in an increasingly confusing debate over wind farming and the future of the planet.Typical of this ___4___ is hearing Professor David Bellamy leading the fight against wind farms. I had always thought of Professor Bellamy as an environmentalist and had made the___5___ assumption that he would be a natural supporter of wind power. However, ___6___, Bellamy would be better described as a conservationist whose main aim is to preserve natural space for plants and animals from destruction, rather than a campaigner on climate change.Bellamy, along with other opponents, has argued that the wind farms are in fact ___7___, and are only commercially feasible because they are so heavily subsidized (补贴). This argument has been put forward by several newspaper commentators recently, who have then gone on to___8___ the virtues of nuclear power. This is in the face of years of protests from greens who claim that nuclear power is both expensive and ___9___. And yet nuclear energy has recently been ___10___ by a leading green scientist, Professor James Lovelock, who was one of the first to draw attention to the problems of climate change. He argues that renewable energy such as wind simply cannot provide sufficient electricity for our energy needs.But of course, it is ___11___to imagine that the good people of Saddleworth would prefer to see a nuclear power station on their doorstep rather than seven wind turbines. On average it takes six years to get planning permission for nuclear plants because of the inevitable protest. So what's the ___12___?Bellamy suggests reducing ___13___of fossil fuels if people want to control greenhouse gases. Certainly, he has much support for this from environmentalists. However, just a few years ago, the government was forced to ___14___ increases in taxes on petrol (汽油)because of a huge public outcry which saw the country almost brought to a stop. And at the heart of those protestswere those who said they ___15___ their cars and were being fairly punished by high fuel taxes. These same people reject wind farms because they see the turbines as something that spoils the countryside.1.A.clear B.odd C.important D.satisfactory 2.A.at last B.in other words C.above all D.as a matter of fact 3.A.battleground B.phenomenon C.experience D.dominance 4.A.energy B.production C.tourism D.confusion 5.A.basic B.widespread C.false D.realistic 6.A.on average B.on reflection C.in particular D.in detail 7.A.necessary B.outdated C.uneconomic D.public 8.A.forget B.question C.develop D.praise 9.A.clean B.safe C.irresistible D.dangerous 10.A.doubted B.advocated C.proved D.ignored 11.A.depressing B.possible C.difficult D.adequate 12.A.answer B.matter C.point D.cause 13.A.waste B.consumption C.price D.recycling 14.A.end B.mark C.consider D.sustain 15.A.relied on B.gave up C.made for D.picked out When it comes to anxiety over online data privacy, the first and most common legal solution comes to mind: more transparency. If firms are required to tell people what information they collect, and do so in a simple and obvious manner, people would be able to _____16_____ doing business with those that adopt abusive privacy practices.There is one _____17_____ with the transparency solution. There is no evidence that it works! (And there are mountains of evidence that it fails.) Even when the information people are asked to share is highly private and _____18_____, and even if the notices about the ways firms collect, use and share this information are delivered in the simplest and most concise manner, people still don’t read the notices and don’t change their _____19_____. A recent experiment tried to deliver the privacy notices to users in the format of a simple “nutrition facts” box, to no avail. The notice still went _____20_____ and people shared the same amount of sensitive personal information as they do when the notices are long and cluttered.If simple notices are not read or used by people, the hopes for _____21_____ choice flee. Users are not going to _____22_____ Google’s personalized ads or to personalize the Facebook’s privacy setting. These consumers might comparison-shop among services based on various quality and service measures, but not on the basis of _____23_____ features.It is also important to dispel a second perceived solution to privacy _____24_____: lawsuits. There are numerous class action lawsuits percolating in courts, alleging violations by websites of privacy statutes. Google,______25______, has long been defending against the complaints that its Gmail service, which scans the text of its users’ emails, is a violation of the Wiretap Act (窃听法). Many of these lawsuits eventually fail because they cannot prove a ______26______ injury. But even the few that succeed are not going to change the behavior of firms. They will only teach firms to write more ______27______ privacy notices and require more frequent clicks “I Agree” from users.A third legal solution fueled by privacy anxiety is the “right to be forgotten”. It gives users the right to request search engines to ______28______ links to personal information that are no longer accurate or relevant. Viewed by its ______29______ as a major landmark in privacy protection, the right to be forgotten mandate is ultimately proving to be a storm in a tea cup. In one year, Google reported to have received only 218,000 requests (or which it granted about half).

As AI matures and people move further away from distinct programming and monitoring of systems, unidentified bias (偏见) might make decisions continue for a long time that cause ___31___ harm for individuals and society. This bias might ___32___ input data or even the algorithms (算法) themselves.All too often, data sets are incomplete and the sample represented in the data set does not___33___the population that the AI model is making predictions about—this is known as coverage bias. Some other types of bias related to input data include sampling bias, where data is not collected randomly from the target group, and participation bias, where users from certain groups ___34___ surveys at different rates than users from other groups. Still, another more challenging bias to identify is confirmation bias that occurs when a decision maker or analyst has a strong ___35___ belief or experience that affects their ability to consider alternatives. This could lead one to more strongly ___36___ data that confirms a preexisting belief.Bias resulting from AI algorithms themselves, or algorithmic bias, is equally ___37___. One example of algorithmic bias is implicit bias or unconscious bias, where data scientists ___38___ make associations or assumptions based on their mental models and memories that affect data modeling decisions. Implicit bias can ___39___ how data is collected and classified, or how systems are designed and developed. As machines learn, their conclusions and decisions affect people. Ethical (道德的) AI must understand these impacts and create governance and testing methods to ___40___ mistakes and inaccuracies.To create ethical AI, companies need to put the ___41___ of the individual at the center of data innovation. This means thinking about ___42___ rights as human rights and developing a comprehensive approach to data, including how we use AI.Having ___43___ data practices for AI means having good AI governance. This governance not only focuses on data and analytics but also understands the impacts of any given analysis and makes sure it’s ___44___ and accurate. Good AI governance includes data responsibility as wellas a commitment to transparency (透明性).None of this will be easy, but true innovation never is. By coming together and working on the problem of bias now, before it becomes a(n) ___45___ force, businesses can help bring out the best AI has to offer the world.31.A.theoretical B.psychological C.disproportionate D.unintended 32.A.arise from B.contribute to C.take over D.make up 33.A.inspire B.match C.protect D.restrict 34.A.quit B.administer C.compare D.analyze 35.A.distinct B.predictable C.original D.widespread 36.A.restore B.imply C.miss D.favor 37.A.embarrassing B.dangerous C.relevant D.ridiculous 38.A.intentionally B.temporarily C.automatically D.appropriately 39.A.influence B.help C.attract D.predict 40.A.admit B.define C.address D.publicize 41.A.belongings B.expressions C.characteristics D.needs 42.A.civil B.digital C.legal D.natural 43.A.frequent B.responsible C.peculiar D.graceful 44.A.fair B.quick C.appealing D.adequate 45.A.leading B.innovative C.cultural D.destructive There aren’t enough resources to identify and cure the factors that are causing populations of animals around the world to decline. Artificial intelligence might have the power to change that.When an endangered seabird hits a power line, it ____46____ “very much like the laser noise from Star Wars,” says preservation biologist Marc Travers. He should know, as his team from the Endangered Seabird Recovery Project recorded thousands of hours of audio to determine if power lines ____47____ local seabirds. Travers was trying to establish how ____48____ birds were killed by power lines on the island of Kauai in Hawaii in 2011.His team recorded 600 hours of audio and sent the recordings to Preservation Metrics, a company that assists preservation efforts with AI ____49____. Preservation Metrics used a program to “listen” to the recordings and check off the sounds that signified bird electrocutions (电击). The result was ____50____, as the number of bird electrocutions was in the thousands.____51____ proof that power lines were killing a significant number of birds, the team worked with the local utility (公共设施) service to reduce bird deaths.In science fiction stories such as The Matrix, AI-powered machines take over the world and end life on the planet as we know it. But ____52____, programs that use AI to sort through mountains of data might just save some species from disappearing permanently.By many ____53____, humans have been poor keepers of the planet. Humans have altered as much as 97 percent of land ecosystems. Key populations of monitored animals have declined as much as 68 percent since 1970. The decline in ____54____ around the world has created a miserable situation. Preservation efforts ____55____ key resources they need to be effective.Humans, ____56____, fortunately have AI-based tools that can help now. AI can quickly and accurately sort through large amounts of data created by observations in the field. Then other programs such as PAWS (Protection Assistant for Wildlife Security) can help analyse the data and suggest the most effective ways to focus preservation efforts.In large national parks and wildlife reserves, ____57____ hunters are a danger for animals both big and small. Some animals are worth a lot of money on the black market. Park keepers are left with a(n) ____58____ task because there is too much land to cover. But the PAWS programme allows park keepers to focus their efforts. PAWS has even ____59____ the existence of trap lines in areas not yet watched by park keepers!We still face many challenges to ____60____ the loss of wildlife, but AI-powered programs promise to be a powerful preservation tool.46.A.makes a sound B.catches fire C.keeps the distance D.takes chances 47.A.affected B.preserved C.recorded D.attracted 48.A.unlawfully B.instantly C.frequently D.deliberately 49.A.fiction B.significance C.factors D.resources 50.A.deceiving B.doubtful C.desirable D.disturbing 51.A.Engaged in B.Qualified for C.Armed with D.Exposed to 52.A.in addition B.in reality C.in return D.in fact 53.A.measures B.programs C.services D.species 54.A.biodiversity B.production C.population D.economy 55.A.distribute B.pool C.lack D.exploit56.A.meanwhile B.however C.otherwise D.besides 57.A.big-game B.professional C.local D.illegal 58.A.impossible B.dangerous C.urgent D.thankless 59.A.disproved B.explained C.predicted D.ignored 60.A.estimate B.reverse C.experience D.sustain It was thought that Microbes (细菌) in sediments — solid material that settles at the bottom of a liquid beneath the seafloor died above 80°C, but scientists have found some that can survive up to 120°C and possibly higher temperatures. The discovery shows that life in seafloor sediments can survive higher temperatures than previously thought.“I would think that wherever there’s energy that can be exploited by microorganisms,____61____ find(s) a way.” says Tina Treude at the University of California, Los Angeles. It is possible that there is life at even higher temperatures. “The only way to find out is to go back and ____62____ deeper,” she says, though in lab experiments so far, no microbes have been found to grow above 122°C.The researchers were also able to ____63____ out and count cells using a special device. Together, the findings show that relatively few cells survive at these temperatures, but those that do have very high metabolic (新陈代谢的) rates. “It was astonishingly high,” says Treude.This surprised the team because it is the ____64____ of what has been found in shallower sediments, where it is much colder. Microbes are ____65____ there, but their metabolisms are extremely slow and individual microbes might live for millions of years. At 120°C, the heat is doing a lot of damage to cells, so microbes may need high metabolisms to generate enough energy to repair this damage. It is a(n) ____66____ to stay alive, says Treude.It isn’t clear what these heat-loving, or thermophilic, microbes are, as the team was unable to ____67____ their DNA.Nor is it clear how they came to be in the sediments, given that this would have been a very cold environment for a long time after the sediments that the samples came from were first ____68____.However, a few thermophilic microbes would have been present when the sediments were deposited, and they may have somehow ____69____ until temperatures began to rise due to being _____70_____ under more material, says team member Felix Beulig at Aarhus University inDenmark.As the temperatures rose, all the microbes that weren’t _____71_____ of heat would gradually have died off, says team member Florian Schubert at the German Research Centre for Geosciences in Potsdam. “The microbes that cannot _____72_____, they just die,” he says.Patrick Forterre at the Pasteur Institute in Paris says that while there are _____73_____ results showing microbe growth at 106°C, nobody has been able to exactly copy the two lab studies claiming growth at 122°C.“It’s very difficult to _____74_____ the upper temperature limit,” he says.He is therefore _____75_____ of the idea of microbes living normally at 120°C, but he does think it is possible that they could somehow survive and became active again at lower temperatures. 61.A.life B.energy C.bacteria D.voyage 62.A.think B.research C.practise D.drill 63.A.spread B.figure C.separate D.reach 64.A.opposite B.evidence C.coincidence D.resemblance 65.A.moderate B.existent C.swift D.plentiful 66.A.game B.approach C.race D.solution 67.A.explode B.identify C.locate D.attack 68.A.formed B.deposited C.tagged D.covered 69.A.stuck on B.moved away C.died off D.run out 70.A.exposed B.removed C.buried D.washed 71.A.tolerant B.afraid C.tired D.careful 72.A.translate B.adapt C.escape D.furnish 73.A.various B.false C.reliable D.different 74.A.pass B.break C.outstep D.determine 75.A.capable B.doubtful C.sick D.Ignorant参考答案:1.B2.C3.A4.D5.C6.B7.C8.D9.D10.B11.A12.C13.B14.A15.A【解析】【导语】本文是一篇说明文。

The three applicants received the same message; but only Maria’s reply14 the company, so she was given the job. I asked her, "How did all of you reply?" She said, "One did not reply, the other said ‘goodbye’, and I said ‘thank you’."Only then did I know that Maria's 15 came in that way. That is, when you feel disappointed, do not 16 to say " thank you" to the one who disappoints you. Actually, it is a piece of cake to say "thank you". But it is whether you are 17 to say it in a peaceful and grateful manner 18 does matter. Saying "thank you ” shows19 for others’ work and shows your grand generosity.

Usually, the main 3 is his parents. When we’re growing up we must do what our parents want us to do. We really don’t have our own 4 . The problem is that most parents are overly 5 that they know what’s best for their children. Many parents 6 their children to make certain educational 7 . Some parents won’t 8 their children’s college, unless the children learn 9 what the parents decide.Parents aren’t the only ones10 their ideas on my students. I have some students who are doing jobs they really 11 , but their friends or relatives would not support them if they apply for a 12 job they’d like better.Are you allowing others to decide what life you are living now? If so, it is a 13 .Even if you are about to 14 for college and you find that the only way your parents will pay school fees for you is that you choose Business, but you want to 15 Art… And at this moment I don’t16 that you choose the major you have no 17 .Follow your heart.Remember, 18 choose your major or job that you don’t like just because of others’ideas.

First of all, it is now easier to 4 an object than to spend lime and money to repair it. 5 modem manufacturing (制造业) and technology, companies are able to produce products quickly and inexpensively.

We formed plans to make a Municipal Fisheries and Aquatic Resource Management Council that would work 13 with the local government to re-establish marine (海洋的) protected areas and to observe and record the 14 of the coral reefs (珊瑚礁), sea grass, and mangroves.

And I began to understand the driver’s apparently unfriendly silence — he was worried. The steep incline (斜坡) aheadwas 44 with snow. The taxi slowly made its way up the hill. Suddenly, we came to a dead stop, and the driver turned to us. “Look! It is very 45 to go forward. You have to get out and walk.
