The Plano, Texas, detective# dressed in plain clothes but wearing his badge and gun, caught the man and pinned him to the hood of his car. But Hoffman had trouble containing the thief, and they got into a struggle.“The detective has a martial (军事的) arts background, and he said he thought the suspect must have a martial arts background, too, because he was able to break away so easily,” a Plano police spokesperson said.The detective called out for help as a crowd gathered. Among those watching: Andre Harvey and Kirby Sample, two day laborers. Harvey did what has become common these days—he took out his phone and hit record. “I hate to say it, but I thought that this policeman was doing something stupid,” Harvey said. “But when he asked for help, I thought, well, there won’t be a shooting if I get over there in time.” Harvey jumped into action —while he was still recording the video—as did Sample.“Harvey caught hold of the suspect’s arms, while Kirby seized his legs, and they were able to get the suspect to the ground to help Detective Hoffman put the handcuffs (手铐)on,” said the police spokesperson. The 27-year-old suspect was charged with resisting arrest and other offenses. The charity jar he stole held less than $ 50.“I’ve been on the wrong side of the law several times in my life,”Harvey told WFAA. “It feels good to be on the right side and do something positive.”After the arrest, the three men got to know each other over steaks and ribs at a local steak house — Hoffman’s treat, as a thank-you. But the rescuers say Hoffman deserves credit too. “It could have turned real ugly,” Sample told KFOR. com. “He handled himself likea real professional.”1.What made Hoffman call for help when arresting the suspect?A. He was not on duty.B. He couldn’t control the suspect.C. He needed witnesses to support him.D. He wanted to push the thief into the car.2.Why did Harvey and Kirby record the scene at the beginning?A.

He might have had some illegal conducts.4.What is Harvey and Sample’s attitude towards Hoffman?A. Appreciative.B. Prejudiced.C. Skeptical.D. Admirable.SYS20180106072详细信息3. 难度:中等When a friend approaches you in the heat of a moment, it can be hard to know what to say. There’ no blanket approach for every person through every crisis (危急), but a few guidelines could help youoffer the best support.Friends going through a crisis often just need someone to talk to and explore their feelings with, but the trick is to listen without sounding like you’re judging. Reorganize “why” questions, which can imply you’re questioning their judgment, but ‘how’ and‘what’ questions, and ‘who’ and ‘when’ seem caring and sincere. Open-ended questions that can’t be answered with a ‘yes’ or ‘no’will also help friends dig into their deepest feelings during a crisis. While your loved ones talk through their replies, practice active listening by focusing on their answers. After all, yourfriends probably just need someone to listen and prove them, rather than hearing you offer potentially unhelpful advice.When you do respond,avoid telling friends in crisis how they “should” be feeling. “‘Should’ is not a valid term, saying it’s not OK for you to feel these societally ‘weak’ feelings,” says Michelle Kuchuk, director of training for Crisis Text Line. “If you’re only hearing ‘you should feel great’, you’re never going to speak again or get that weight off your chest if you think other people will judge you.”On the other hand, tying those positive feelings to a specific action can feel more sincere. If friends hear “you’re so strong” without an example to back it up, they might never believe it. But if they’ve been explaining how hard it was to talk to someone else, praise them for taking that brave step.Finally, it’s more important for a friend to know you’re there forsupport than stressing about saying the right thing during a crisis. Just be a friend and really listen to that person, not with your own agenda but “what is this person really going through?”1.Who is this passage intended for?A. People to be consultants.B. People in need of support.C. People going through a crisis.D. People supporting friends in crisis.2.What is your most suitable question to ask one talking to you?A. Who did that1?B. When did you start it?C. How did you feel about it1?D. Why did you feel that way?3.What does the underlined part mean in the 4th paragraph?A. Tell the truth out.B. Relieve their pressure.C. Keep everything secret.D. Leave your baggage behind.4.What is suggested to respond to your friends’ talking?A. Preparing your questions beforehand.B. Giving them as many instructions as possible.C. Praising them constantly by encouraging words.D. Expressing your appreciation for a small behavior.SYS20180106072详细信息4. 难度:简单“It’s a big hammer to crack a nut.” This is how one angry parent described the recent crackdown(强制措施)by London police on parents who drop their kids off at school by car. Yes, you read that correctly—the very mode of transportation that many American schools insist—the only safe way to deliver kids to school is now being criminalized in the United Kingdom.The decision to fine any vehicles seen dropping off or picking up kids with in a particular zone of east London comes from city councillors’(议员) long-term efforts to make the area safer and less crowded. They say they’ve been trying for years “to encourage sensible driving and parking”, but in vain. Neighborhood residents complain frequently about their driveways being blocked by illegally parked cars for 15 minutes or more,often while they’re trying to get to work, and the streets are long overcrowded.Now the rules have changed. Some parents are angry. Angie Baillieulis a mother who made the “big hammer” comment and says the crackdown is “way over the top.” The nearest drop-off point for her six- year-old is now a five-minute walk from the school. Others are happy with the decision, severe though it may seem. Councillor Jason Frost said :“Traffic has significantly reduced,and more children are now walking to school, which is a great outcome. I would rather havecomplaints that we are slightly inconveniencing parents than hearthat a child had been seriously injured because nothing was done.”I witness daily the chaos created by these in-town drivers,when I walk my own kids to school. There’s a parking lot overflowing with vehicles and a slow-moving train of cars moving in circles,many filling the air with harmful smokes. Meanwhile, the conversations around child over-weight and the importance of daily physicalactivity continue to stand out in schools.1.Why is Angie Baillieul opposed to the new rule?A. She is often fined by London police.B. She will lose her job as a school driver.C. She has adapted to the American practice.D. She thinks it adds inconvenience to her son.2.Why has the new rule been made according to Jason Frost1?A. On account of massive complaints.B. Because of heavytraffic jams.C. Owing to safety concern.D. Due to air pollution.3.What can be seen after the crackdown is carried out?A. Less daily chaos.B. Favor from all people.C. More over-weight children.D. Complaints from neighbors.4.What is the main idea of the text?A. Parents attempt to resist a school rule.B. London police cause widespread anger.C. American schools care about kids7 safety.D. Different voices are heard on a new traffic policy.SYS201801060722二、其他题详细信息5. 难度:中等Cooking from Scratch W11 Change Your LifeCooking from scratch is more than just making fresh food to eat.

Believe it or not, the dim lighting could actually help save your life in case of a plane emergency.The dimmed lights before taking off the runway and landing are a flight precaution used to help passengers’ eyes adjust quicker during an emergency escape. “Going from a brightly lit environment to one that’s completely dark would require some time for our eyes to focus and see the escape slide,” Alice Theriault, service director for Air Canada wrote in a press statement. “Since we need to have all the seconds on our side in the event of an emergency, dimming the lights is one of many steps we take to ensure the safety of our customers.”The phenomenon that your eyes see those strange speckles (小斑点) as your sight adjusts to a dark place after being in a light place is called dark adaptation. It normally takes our eyes about 20 to 30 minutes to see best in a dark room. The brighter the lights, the longer it takes for our eyes to adjust, which is why dimming the plane lights could shorten y our “dark adaptation” time since you haven’t been sitting under fluorescent bulbs (荧光灯) all flight.Not only does dimming lights add valuable time to the escape process, it reduces the tension on your eyes if you need to look outside, or see the emergency lighting along the passage. “It helps keep you in the right direction.” Patrick Smith, an airline pilot and author of Cockpit Confidential told The Telegraph. “It also makes it easier for flight attendants to assess any outside risks, such as fire or debri s, that might affect an escape.” So next time a pilot dims the lights, just know it’s for your safety, even though it creates a gentle atmosphere for your takeoff into the sky.4.The lights are turned down before takeoff to help passengers_______.A.take a short breakB.escape in time of emergencyC.create a warm atmosphereD.adapt their eyes to the bright environment5.What is one of the roles of shortening “dark adaptation” time?A.Slowing down the landing. B.Adjusting the plane lights. C.Keeping passengers calm. D.Helping the crew judge outside risks. 6.What does the underlined word “It” in the last paragraph refer to?A.Dimming lights. B.The escape process.C.Reducing tension. D.The passage.7.What is the text mainly about?A.A tip of air travel.B.An emergency event on a plane.C.A warning message on a plane.D.An explanation of an airline safety measure.When was the last time you told someone they inspire you to go to work each morning?Teachers at Oak Park High School in Kansas City, Missouri, did just that this September, when they pulled individual students out of class to tell them just how much they appreciated them.The students’ reactions, which were captured (捕捉) on video and shared on YouTube in a now-viral video, ranged from shy thanks to hugs and tears.“I have been challenged to find a student who makes me want to come to school every day,” says one teacher in the video, “and that’s you.”Jamie McSparin, a teacher in charge of the school’s academy program for at-risk sophomores (二年级学生)and juniors, posed the challenge, writes ABC News.“Initially when we pulled the kids out, they all thought they were in trouble,” McSparin told ABC News. “Any teacher-student interaction always seems to be negative (消极的), and that was something that bothe red me, too. No matter if they’re a good kid or a trouble maker or anything, they always thought they were in trouble,” she says.McSparin says she got the idea for the project after attending a professional development workshop this summer called the power of positivity.“I like the idea of letting students know they are appreciated, because we do appreciate them, I just don’t think we say it enough,” she told local news outlet WDAF-TV.It’s safe to say the challenge was effective.“I feel special,” said one of the boys in the video. “You should,” said his teacher. “You are special.”8.What does the underlined word “posed” in Paragraph 5 mean?A.Presented. B.Rejected.C.Ignored. D.Evaluated.9.How did the students probably feel when pulled out of the classroom at first? A.Nervous. B.Thrilled.C.Curious. D.Encouraged.10.What inspired McSparin to challenge the project?A.The trouble caused by students.B.The need of shooting the video.C.A seminar named the power of positivity.D.A program related to students’ interactions.11.What message does this text mainly convey?A.Challenge is unavoidable in life.B.Everyone needs to be appreciated.C.Positivity outweighs negativity.D.News media contribute to students’ progress.On a college camping trip, curiosity about waves and sand caused Rob Thieler to study shorelines around the world. Thirty years later and now a U. S. Geological Survey research geologist, Thieler, is combining science and smartphone technology to help study a bird, which is dying out, the Atlantic Coast piping plover.The piping plover is a shorebird that lives along the Atlantic Coast, the Great Lakes and the Great Plains. Rising sea level associated with climate change, as well as increased development of their beach habitats(栖息地), threatens the species. To help track changes in piping plover habitats, Thieler developed a free app called iPlover in 2012. This is a marked change from the typical way scientists collect data.Since releasing iPlover, scientists have gathered data across 1,500 km of breeding range. That equals about a third of the distance across the U. S., which is a large area to cover for only two thousand breeding pairs of piping plovers on the east coast. Instead of having to travel and spend days at each site, a number of cooperators in the field use the app to collect and send data, allowing scientists to gather data more efficiently. It also allows them to collect data at the same time during each breeding season, providing a better picture of changes that happen over longer periods of time. And fast, centralized access means scientists can look at data quickly to get a real-time idea of where and how piping plovers are using their habitats.While iPlover is used by trained field staff, other apps like the U. S. Ge ological Survey’s web-based “iCoast —Did the Coast Change?” invite citizen scientists to identify coastal changes by comparing aerial(从飞机上的)photographs taken before and after storms. All the information scientists and citizen scientists alike collect helps federal and state agencies create policy plans for addressing climate change impacts(影响)worldwide.12.What can we know about the piping plover?A.Its behaviour is changing.B.Its habitat is growing bigger.C.Its living environment is becoming worse.D.Its breeding range is limited to the Atlantic Coast.13.Why did Thieler develop iPlover?A.To study shorelines across America.B.To advance information technology.C.To study global climate change.D.To monitor changes of piping plover habitats.14.Which of the following benefits the shorebird?A.The camping equipment. B.Research on smartphones.C.The changeable coast. D.Progress in technology.15.What would be the best title of the text?A.Protecting Endangered Shorebirds B.Rob Thieler, a Creative Scientist C.iPlover, a Tool for Training Field Staff D.Differences Between iPlover and iCoast二、七选五Many people think only professionals—engineers, accountants, teachers, etc.—have careers.16.Even if you’ve never had a paid job, you still have a career. Your career is the sum of your life and work. It includes all your activities and experiences. Your schooling, your volunteer work, and even your relationships with your family are all big parts of your career. 17.During your career, you will have a variety of jobs, occupations and roles. People used to think of a job as full-time, permanent, paid work done for an employer at a work site. But in our changing world, a job is a set of duties or tasks. It can be paid or unpaid. 18.Even someone who is self-employed has a job.An occupation is a group of jobs with similar responsibilities that require a common set ofskills. 19.Programmers may have permanent or temporary jobs working for specific employers, be self-employed, work full-time or part-time, be paid for their work or volunteer their services. They may change jobs or hold several jobs at one time but, until they change the type of duties or tasks they perform, they are still computer programmers.20.We all play a number of roles in our lives and our roles often change over time. For example, Kris works four days a week as a receptionist in a clinic and takes evening courses in social work. She also sews gymnastic wear for her neighbor who sells it at summer markets. Now Kris has at least three roles.A.A role is a part you play.B.Actually everyone has a career.C.In other words, your career is your life story.D.For example, computer programmer is an occupation.E.As a matter of fact, a job is different from a role in some way.F.It can be completed at a work site, at home, or somewhere else.G.The following is about your work, your family, and your life story.三、完形填空Growing up, I always hid my thumbs(拇指)in my fists because of their unusual shape.21 they do look more like a big toe(脚趾)22 a thumb.

If life can be compared to a multi﹣course meal, every experience has a flavor. Yet nothing could quite compare to the bitter dryness that filled my mouth as I stood motionless, trapped between the edge of a desk and a teacher’s arm, having forgotten my own name.But as flour cannot replace baking powder, mumbling a few syllables I’d learned that day was not an adequate pronunciation of my newly assigned Chinese name. The teacher smiled awkwardly, and I simply had to hope that I had not said anything too embarassing before the strained silence passed.So went my first days of the STARTALK Chinese language program, a month and a half of intensive(密集的)summer Mandarin classes in Manhattan. There were other 9 girls like me and 10 Chinese teachers spending all of July together on the fifth floor of Hunter College. I would get off the train every morning at 7: 15, then hurriedly walk the 25blocks to the college, a sesame bagel (百吉饼) in hand from one of the breakfast carts along Lexington Avenue.I knew next to nothing about Mandarin and had no previous experience learning the language I chose it mainly because my goal was to work internationally. Learning Spanish had been relatively easy, since my fluency in French had helped me a lot. It was sweet. ________As the classes went on, I slowly found I was making connections. As the teachers helped me build up the confidence to talk to people like museum﹣goers, I began tasting the sweetness. I am confident that Mandarin will allow me to understand more cultures, and help me explore new flavors that only exposure to this language would permit.(1)Why did the author stand motionless in Paragraph 1?________A.Because she had a poor memory.B.Because her mouth was terribly dry.C.Because she was trapped and unable to move.D.Because her poor Chinese made her embarrassed.(2)What can we infer from Paragraph 3?________A.The author had no difficulty at first.B.The author could not but learn Mandarin.C.The author lived far away from the college.D.The author spent the whole July with her classmates.(3)What does the underlined sentence in Paragraph 4 mean?________A.The author had trouble in swimming.B.The author felt hopeless about her life.C.The author lost interest in Mandarin learning.D.The author found Mandarin learning tough at first.(4)Which of the following can be the best title for the text?________A.My Life Experience.B.A Sweet Summer.C.STARTALK Program Learning.D.Mandarin, Bittersweet.【答案】DCDD【考点】阅读理解综合【解析】短文主要是作者介绍了自己初学中文遇到的困难和尴尬,但经过不断的上课,作者慢慢有了自信,并相信自己会学到中文里面的文化.【解答】(1)D,细节理解题,根据后半句trapped between the edge of a desk and a teacher’s arm, having forgotten my own name,作者站着不动是和老师在一起,并且忘了自己的名字,再由第二段mumbling a few syllables I’d learned that day was not an adequate pronunciation of my newly assigned Chinese name可知,作者是由于中文不好,让他很尴尬,故答案为D.(2)C,细节理解题,根据句子 I would get off the train every morning at 7: 15, then hurriedly walk the 25blocks to the college,作者在早上七点十五分下了火车后,要走25个街区才到学校,可知他住的离学校很远,故答案为C.(3)D,句意猜测题,该句主要表达作者在学习中文的过程中遇到了困难,并由下一句As the classes went on, I slowly found I was making connections,作者慢慢建立了联系,可推测该句的意思是作者最初觉得学习中文很困难,故答案为D.(4)D,标题归纳题,短文主要是作者介绍了自己初学中文遇到的困难和尴尬,主要表述的事件是学习中文,并讲述了这过程中遇到的困难和喜悦,因此最好的标题是D 选项.3. A new library in Tianjin﹣﹣﹣Tianjin Binhai Public Library﹣﹣﹣recently has become an online hit. The Daily Mail d escribed it as the “world’s ultimate(最终的)library”,while the word “breathtaking” was the choice of Newsweek magazine. One look at the library and you’ll see why. With its futuristic design and walls loaded with books, it’s the dream library of every book lover.But as the awe continues, there’s a burning question lying in the back of ourminds: When physical bookstores are closing down one by one, what makes libraries immune from the wave of digitalization? And do we really still need libraries n ow we’ve got the internet in our hands?Reporter Ian Clark has the answer.“Libraries are not declining in importance﹣﹣﹣people are simply changing the way they use them, ” he wrote on the Guardian website. What Clark means is that libraries have shifted from simply being storehouses of books to a medium to help “bridge the gap between the haves and the have﹣nots”, according to website Libraries Are Essential. Since not everyone can afford a smartphone, a tablet or an internet connection, and not everyone has the know﹣how to search the internet correctly and efficiently, it’s public libraries that make sure that these resources and technologies are available to a larger group of people.And one of the ________ that come with online materials is t hat they’re not always reliable.“Google doesn’t tell you what you’re not getting, so people need to evaluate the quality and completeness of what they see on their screens, ” Sarah Pritchard, dean of libraries at Northwestern University, told Northwestern Research Magazine. And libraries are usually where that “evaluation” happens.But all of these practical functions aside, we still need the physical space that a library provides.It’s something that’s called a “third place”, according to the Seattle Times. This is a place in which we can fully concentrate on our study and work without easily getting distracted.(1)Why has Tianjin Binhai Public Library become an online hit?________A.Because its appearance is amazing.B.Because its design is modern and unique.C.Because it is the world’s ultimate library.D.Because it possesses the most books in the world.(2)What is conveyed by Ian Clark?________A.Libraries still play a key role.B.Libraries are the best resources.C.People’s interest in lib raries is falling off.D.Some approves of the efficiency of the Internet.(3)What does the underlined word “pitfalls” in Paragraph 4 mean?________A.Difficulties.B.Problems.C.Traps.D.Mistakes.(4)How many functions of libraries is the passage talking about?________A.One.B.Two.C.Three.D.Four.【答案】BBC【考点】阅读理解综合【解析】本文是一篇科教类阅读,属于议论文,天津滨海公共图书馆的一个新图书馆最近成为网上热门,但是出现了一个亟待解决的问题:当实体书店逐一关闭时,什么使图书馆摆脱数字化浪潮?我们掌握了互联网,那现在是否还需要图书馆?【解答】(1)B.细节理解题.根据One look at the library and you’ll see why. With its futuristic (未来主义) design and walls loaded with books,它的未来主义设计和装满书籍的墙壁,可知是设计现代化,很独特.故选B.(2)B.细节理解题.根据Since not everyone can afford a smartphone, a tablet or an Internet connection, and not everyone has the know﹣how to search the Internet correctly and efficiently,it’s public libraries that make sure that these resources and technologies are available to a larger group of people.不是每个人都能买得起智能手机、平板电脑或互联网连接,也不是每个人都有正确和有效地搜索互联网,因此公共图书馆确保这些资源和技术可以用于更大的人群.可知图书馆有重要的作用.故选B.(3)B.词义推断题.由后面they’re not always reliable,它们不总是可靠的,可知这是在说问题,故选B.(4)C.细节理解题.由第三段libraries have shifted from simply being storehouses of books to a medium,图书馆已经从简单的图书仓库变成了媒介,第四段 And libraries are usually where that “evaluation” happe ns.而图书馆通常是“评估”发生的地方,最后一段we still need the physical space that a library provides,我们仍然需要图书馆提供物理空间,因此一共有三个功能,故选C.4. For some fortunate sky﹣watches looking up on Thursday, the black outline of the moon will move across the face of the sun in an impressive partial solar eclipse(日蚀).The sky show starts in the late afternoon for viewers in the southern parts of South America, the South Pacific, and Antarctica. Depending on location, viewers(with proper eye protection) may see up to 60 percent of the sun blocked by the moon’s dark disk.The moon crosses between Earth and the sun every month, but the three heavenly bodies don’t always line up in the right way to produce eclipses.That’s because the moon’s orbit is slightly tilted (倾斜)with respe ct to Earth’s, so sometimes it moves above or below the planet’s face. A total solar eclipse occurs only when all three heavenly bodies are lined in just the night way. During a total eclipse, the moon casts its dark central shadow onto a very narrow strip (带状)of Earth’s surface. This kind of eclipse happens somewhere on Earth every 18 months, on average. However, any one location may experience a repeat performance only every three centuries or so.We’ll get two more partial solar eclipses in 2018. An eclipse on July 13will be visible from southern Australia, while an eclipse on August 11 will darken the sun over northern Europe and northeast Asia.The next total solar eclipse will happen on July 2, 2019, for viewers in the South Pacific, Chile, and Argentina. Sky﹣watchers will have to wait until April 8, 2024, for the next major solar eclipse visible from North America. On this day, the moon’s deep shadow will cross the continent on a diagonal(对角的) path traveling from Texas to Maine.(1)What is the main idea of Paragraph 3?________A.Predicting the next solar eclipse.B.Further explaining the solar eclipse.C.Distinguishing different solar eclipses.D.Attracting more people to watch the solar eclipse.(2)How often will a common total eclipse occur on Earth?________A.Every 18 months.B.Every three centuries or so.C.Four times a year.D.Uncertain.(3)When can you see the next solar eclipse in the USA?________A.July 13, 2018.B.August 11, 2018.C.July 2, 2019.D.April 8, 2024.(4)The most important thing to view the solar eclipse is “________”.A.position.B.angle.C.time.D.sun glasses.【答案】BADA【考点】阅读理解综合【解析】本文是一篇科普说明文,主要介绍日食的成因原理,发生的时间,并且对最近接下来几年可以观测到日食的时间和地点进行说明.【解答】(1)B.主旨大意题.通读第三段可知,本段主要详细解释了月食的原理和发生的频率时间,即在上文的基础上对日食进一步解释说明,故选B.(2)A.细节理解题.根据第三段“This kind of eclipse happens somewhere on Earth every 18 months,on average.”可知,常见的日食一般每十八个月发生一次,故选A.(3)D.细节理解题.根据第五段“Sky﹣watchers will have to wait until April 8, 2024,for the next major solar eclipse visible from North America.”可知,美国下一次看到日食是在2024年4月8日,故选D.(4)A.细节理解题.根据第二段“Depending on location, viewers(with proper eye protection)may see up to 60 percent of the sun blocked by the moon’s dark disk.”可知,位置对于观测日食的影响是最重要的,故选A.第二节(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.It’s lunchtime, and GuoZiyang is on a mission(任务): to deliver seven hot meal ordersin an hour.He dashes into a downtown high﹣rise, carrying a plastic container of hot beef noodles.(1)_______He hops into the first one that opens, jumps out at the last stop and begins running up the stairs.

What is necessary for a new driver?A. Rich experience.B. Having a reliable vehicle.C. Being 24 years old.D. An independent contractor.22. How will the new drivers be paid?A. Into a bank account.B.

To advertise the City Cab Taxi Service.BIf life can be compared to a multi-course meal, every experience has a flavor. Yet nothing could quite compare to the bitter dryness that filled my mouth as I stood motionless, trapped between the edge of a desk and a teacher’s arm, having forgotten my own name.But as flour cannot replace baking powder, mumbling a few syllables I’d learned that day was not an adequate pronunciation of my newly assigned Chinese name. The teacher smiled awkwardly, and I simply had to hope that I had not said anything too embarassing before the strained silence passed.So went my first days of the STARTALK Chinese language program, a month and a half of intensive(密集的)summer Mandarin classes in Manhattan. There were other 9 girls like me and 10 Chinese teachers spending all of July together on the fifth floor of Hunter College. I would get off the train every morning at 7: 15, then hurriedly walk the 25 blocks to the college, a sesame bagel (百吉饼) in hand from one of the breakfast carts along Lexington Avenue.I knew next to nothing about Mandarin and had no previous experience learning the language I chose it mainlybecause my goal was to work internationally. Learning Spanish had been relatively easy, since my fluency in French had helped me a lot. It was sweet. The first days of Mandarin however, were like falling straight into the deep end of the pool, only barely knowing how to stay afloat.As the classes went on, I slowly found I was making connections. As the teachers helped me build up the confidence to talk to people like museum-goers, I began tasting the sweetness. I am confident that Mandarin will allow me to understand more cultures, and help me explore new flavors that only exposure to this language would permit.24. Why did the author stand motionless in Paragraph 1?A. Because she had a poor memory.B. Because her mouth was terribly dry.C. Because she was trapped and unable to move.D. Because her poor Chinese made her embarrassed.25. What can we infer from Paragraph 3?A. The author had no difficulty at first.B. The author could not but learn Mandarin.C. The author lived far away from the college.D. The author spent the whole July with her classmates.26. What does the underlined sentence in Paragraph 4 mean?A. The author had trouble in swimming.B. The author felt hopeless about her life.C. The author lost interest in Mandarin learning.D. The author found Mandarin learning tough at first.27. Which of the following can be the best title for the text?A. My Life ExperienceB. A Sweet SummerC. STARTALK Program LearningD. Mandarin, BittersweetCA new library in Tianjin---Tianjin Binhai Public Library---recently has become an online hit. The Daily Mail described it as the “world’s ultim ate(最终的) library”, while the word “breathtaking” was the choice of Newsweek magazine. One look at the library and you’ll see why. With its futuristic design and walls loaded with books, it’s the dream library of every book lover.But as the awe continues, there’s a burning question lying in the back of our minds: When phys ical bookstores are closing down one by one, what makes libraries immune from the wave of digitalization? And do we really still need libraries now we’ve got the internet in our hands?Reporter I an Clark has the answer. “Libraries are not declining in imp ortance---people are simply changing the way they use them,” he wrote on the Guardian website. What Clark means is that libraries have shifted from simply being s torehouses of books to a medium to help “bridge the gap between the haves and the have-nots”, according to website Libraries Are Essential. Since not everyone can afford a smartphone, a tablet or an internet connection, and not everyone has the know-how to search the internet correctly and efficiently, it’s public libraries that make sure that these resources and technologies are available to a larger group of people.And one of the pitfalls that come with online materials is that they’re not always reliab le. “Google doesn’t tell you what you’re not getting, so people need to evaluate the quality a nd completeness of what they see on their screens,” Sarah Pritchard, dean of libraries at Northwestern University, told Northwestern Research Magazine. And libraries are usually where that “evaluation” happens.But all of these practical functions aside, we still need the physical space that a library provides. I t’s something that's called a “third place”, according to the Seattle Times. This is a place in which we can fully concentrate on our study and work without easily getting distracted.28. Why has Tianjin Binhai Public Library become an online hit?A. Because its appearance is amazing.B. Because its design is modern and unique.C. Because it is the world's ultimate library.D. Because it possesses the most books in the world.29. What is conveyed by Ian Clark?A. Libraries still play a key role.B. Libraries are the best resources.C. P eople’s interest in libraries is falling off.D. Some approves of the efficiency of the Internet.30 What does the underlined word “pitfalls” in Paragraph 4 mean?A. Difficulties.B. Problems.C. Traps.D. Mistakes.31. How many functions of libraries is the passage talking about?A. One.B. Two.C. Three.D. Four.DFor some fortunate sky-watches looking up on Thursday, the black outline of the moon will move across the face of the sun in an impressive partial solar eclipse(日蚀).The sky show starts in the late afternoon for viewers in the southern parts of South America, the South Pacific, and Antarctica. Depending on location, viewers(with proper eye protection) may see up to 60 percent of the sun blocked by the moon’s dark disk.The moon crosses between Earth and the sun every month, but the three heavenly bodies don’t always line up in the right way to produce eclipses. T hat’s because the moon’s or bit is slightly tilted (倾斜) with respect to Earth’s, so sometimes it moves above or below the planet’s face. A total solar eclipse occurs only when all three heav enly bodies are lined in just the night way. During a total eclipse, the moon casts its dark central shadow onto a very narrow strip (带状)of E arth’s surfac e. This kind of eclipse happens somewhere on Earth every 18 months, on average. However, any one location may experience a repeat performance only every three centuries or so.W e’ll get two more partial solar eclipses i n 2018.
