2018考研英语二大作文英文回答：In the tapestry of life, we find ourselves navigating a myriad of choices, each thread a potential path leading to unknown destinations. As we embark on this journey, we face a constant stream of crossroads, each demanding a decision that will shape our future. In this labyrinth of possibilities, it is crucial to pause and contemplate the path we wish to tread, for the choices we make today will determine the landscape of our tomorrows.At these junctions, the siren song of instant gratification beckons us towards the familiar and the easy. The path of least resistance, paved with quick fixes and fleeting pleasures, holds a tempting allure. However, it is often the path less traveled, the one that requires effort, courage, and perseverance, that leads to true fulfillment. This is the path that tests our limits, expands our horizons, and transforms us into the people we were meantto be.The path we choose will undoubtedly be marked by challenges. Obstacles will arise, setbacks will occur, and moments of doubt will creep in. But it is in these times of adversity that our resolve is put to the test. Like a crucible that refines precious metals, these trials have the power to either break us or forge us into something stronger. By embracing the hardships, we develop resilience, learn from our mistakes, and emerge from the fire with a newfound determination.It is in the company of others that we truly find our way. Surrounding ourselves with like-minded individuals, mentors, and those who believe in us provides a beacon of support and inspiration. Their encouragement helps us to persevere when the going gets tough, and their insights shed light on the path ahead. By investing in our relationships, we invest in our own growth and potential.As we navigate the crossroads of life, it is essentialto remember that the destination is not the only measure of success. The journey itself is equally important, for it is in the experiences we gather and the lessons we learn along the way that we truly grow and evolve. By embracing the unknown, stepping outside of our comfort zones, and staying true to our values, we can forge a path that is uniquely our own, a path that leads to a life filled with purpose, meaning, and unwavering fulfillment.中文回答：人生宛如一幅错综复杂的挂毯，我们穿梭其中，不断做出选择，每一条细线都可能通向未知的彼岸。

He is a teacher at a NewHampshire high school where learning is not something of books and tests and mechanical memorization, but practical. When did it become accepted wisdom that students should be able to name the13th president of the United States but be utterly overwhelmed by a broken bike chain?As Koziatek knows, there is learning in just about everything. Nothing is necessarily gained by forcing students to learn geometry at a graffitied desk stuck with generations of discarded chewing gum. They can also learn geometry by assembling a bicycle.But he's also found a kind of insidious prejudice. Working with your hands is seen as almost a mark of inferiority. Schools in the family of vocational education "have that stereotype...that it's for kids who can't make it academically," he says.On one hand, that viewpoint is a logical product of America's evolution. Manufacturing is not the economic engine that it once was. The job security that the US economy once offered to high school graduates has largely evaporated. More education is the new principle. We want more for our kids, and rigitfully so.But the headlong push into bachelor's degrees for all—and the subtle devaluing of anything less—misses an important point: That's not the only thing the American economy needs. Yes, a bachelor's degree opens more doors. But even now, 54 percent of the jobs in the country are middle-skill jobs, such as construction and high-skill manufacturing. But only 44 percent of workers are adequately trained.In other words, at a time when the working class has turned the country on its political head, frustrated that the opportunity that once defined America is vanishing, one obvious solution is staring us in the face. There is a gap in working-class jobs, but the workers who need those jobs most aren't equipped to do them. Koziatek's Manchester School of Technology High School is trying to fill that gap.Koziatek's school is a wake-up call. When education becomesone-size-fits-all, it risks over-looking a nation's diversity of gifts.SSS_SIMPLE_SINA broken bike chain is mentioned to show students' lack of ______.•** training•** ability•** spirit** memorizationA B C DSSS_SIMPLE_SIN2.There exists the prejudice that vocational education is for kids who ______.•** a stereotyped mind•** no career motivation•** financially disadvantaged** not academically successfulA B C DSSS_SIMPLE_SIN3.We can infer from paragraph 5 that high school graduates ______.•** to have more job opportunities•** to have big financial concerns•** entitled to more educational privileges** reluctant to work in manufacturingA B C DSSS_SIMPLE_SIN4.The headlong push into bachelor's degrees for all ______.•** create a lot of middle-skill jobs•** narrow the gap in working-class jobs•** the overvaluing of higher education** expected to yield a better-trained workforceA B C DSSS_SIMPLE_SIN5.The author's attitude toward Koziatek's school can be described as ______.•**•**•****A B C DText 2While fossil fuels—coal, oil, gas—still generate roughly 85 percent of the world's energy supply, it's clearer than ever that the future belongs to renewable sources such as wind and solar. The move to renewables is picking up momentum around the world: They now account for more than half of new power sources going on line.Some growth stems from a commitment by governments and farsighted businesses to fund cleaner energy sources. Butincreasingly the story is about the plummeting prices of renewables, especially wind and solar. The cost of solar panels has dropped by 80 percent and the cost of wind turbines by close to one-third in the past eight years.In many parts of the world renewable energy is already a principal energy source. In Scotland, for example, wind turbines provide enough electricity to power 95 percent of homes. While the rest of the world takes the lead, notably China and Europe, the United States is also seeing a remarkable shift. In March, for the first time, wind and solar power accounted for more than 10 percent of the power generated in the US, reported the US Energy Information Administration.President Trump has underlined fossil fuels—especially coal—as the path to economic growth. In a recent speech in Iowa, he dismissed wind power as an unreliable energy source. But that message did not play well with many in Iowa, where wind turbines dot the fields and provide 36 percent of the state's electricity generation—and where tech giants like Microsoft are being attracted by the availability of clean energy to power their data centers.The question "what happens when the wind doesn't blow or the sun doesn't shine?" has provided a quick put-down for skeptics. But a boost in the storage capacity of batteries is making their ability to keep power flowing around the clock more likely.The advance is driven in part by vehicle manufacturers, who areplacing big bets on battery-powered electric vehicles. Although electric cars are still a rarity on roads now, this massive investment could change the picture rapidly in coming years.While there's a long way to go, the trend lines for renewables are spiking. The pace of change in energy sources appears to be speeding up—perhaps just in time to have a meaningful effect in slowing climate change. What Washington does or doesn't do—to promote alternative energy may mean less and less at a time of a global shift in thought.SSS_SIMPLE_SIN6.The word "plummeting" (Para.2) is closest in meaning to ______.•**•**•****A B C DSSS_SIMPLE_SIN7.According to Paragraph 3, the use of renewable energy in America ______.•** progressing notably•** as extensive as in Europe•** many challenges** proved to be impracticalA B C DSSS_SIMPLE_SIN8.It can be learned that in Iowa, ______.•** is a widely used energy source•** energy has replaced fossil fuels•** giants are investing in clean energy** is a shortage of clean energy supplyA B C DSSS_SIMPLE_SIN9.Which of the following is true about clean energy according to Paragraphs 5& 6?•** application has boosted battery storage.•** is commonly used in car manufacturing.•** continuous supply is becoming a reality.** sustainable exploitation will remain difficult.A B C DSSS_SIMPLE_SIN10.It can be inferred from the last paragraph that renewable energy ______.•** bring the US closer to other countries•** accelerate global environmental change•** not really encouraged by the US government** **petitive enough with regard to its costA B C DText 3The power and ambition of the giants of the digital economy is astonishing—Amazon has just announced the purchase of the up market grocery chain Whole Foods for $13.5bn, but two years ago Facebook paid even more than that to acquire the WhatsApp messaging service, which does not have any physical produce at all. What WhatsApp offered Facebook was an intricate and finely detailed web of its users' friendships and social lives.Facebook promised the **mission then that it would not link phone numbers to Facebook identities, but it broke the promise almost as soon as the deal went through. Even without knowing that was in the messages, the knowledge of who sent them and to whom was enormously revealing and still could be. What political journalist, what party whip, would not want to know the makeup of the WhatsApp groups in which Theresa May's enemies are currently plotting? It may be that the value of the Whole Foods to Amazon is not so much the 460 shops it owns, but the records of which customers have purchased what.Competition law appears to be the only way to address these imbalances of power. But it is clumsy. For one thing, it is very**pared to the pace of change within the digital economy. By the time a problem has been addressed and remedied it may have vanished in the marketplace, to be replaced by new abuses of power. But there is a deeper conceptual problem, too. Competition law as presently interpreted deals with financial disadvantage to consumers and this is not obvious when the users of these services don't pay for them. The users of the services are not their customers. That would be the people who buy advertising from them—and Facebook and Google, the two virtual giants, dominate digital advertising to the disadvantage of all other media and **panies.The produce they are selling is data, and we, the users, convert our lives to data for the benefits of the digital giants. Just as some ants farm the bugs called aphids for the honeydew they produce when they feed, so Google farms us for the data that our digital lives yield. Ants keep predatory insects away from wheretheir aphids feed; Gmail keeps the spammers out of our inboxes. It doesn't feel like a human or democratic relationship, even if both sides benefit.SSS_SIMPLE_SIN11.According to Paragraph 1, Facebook acquired WhatsApp for its______.•** products•** information•** assets** serviceA B C DSSS_SIMPLE_SIN12.Linking phone numbers to Facebook indentities may ______.•** political disputes•** up customer records•** a risk to Facebook users** the **missionA B C DSSS_SIMPLE_SIN13.According to the author, competition law ______.•** serve the new market powers•** worsen the economic balance•** not provide just one legal solution** keep pace with the changing marketA B C DSSS_SIMPLE_SIN14.Competition law as presently interpreted can hardly protect Facebook users because ______.•** are not defined as customers•** are not financially reliable•** services are generally digital** services are paid for by advertisersA B C DSSS_SIMPLE_SIN15.The ants analogy is used to illustrate ______.•** win-win business model between digital giants•** **petition pattern among digital giants** benefits provided for digital giants' customers** relationship between digital giants and their usersA B C DText 4To combat the trap of putting a premium on being busy, Cal Newport, author of Deep Work: Rules for Focused Success in a Distracted World, recommends building a habit of "deep work"—the ability to focus without distraction.There are a number of approaches to mastering the art of deep work—be it lengthy retreats dedicated to a specific task; develop a daily ritual; or taking a "journalistic" approach to seizing moments of deep work when you can throughout the day. Whichever approach, the key is to determine your length of focus time and stick to it.Newport also recommends "deep scheduling" to combat constant interruptions and get more done in less time. "At any given point, I should have deep work scheduled for roughly the next month. Once on the calendar, I protect this time like I would a doctor's appointmentor important meeting," he writes.Another approach to getting more done in less time is torethink how you reprioritize your day—in particular how we craft our to-do lists. Tim Harford, author of Messy: The Power ofDisorder to Transform Our Lives, points to a study in the early 1980s that divided undergraduates into two groups: some were advised to set out monthly goals and study activities; others were told to plan activities and goals in much more detail, day by day.While the researchers assumed that the well-structured daily plans would be most effective when it came to the execution of tasks, they were wrong: the detailed daily plans demotivated students. Harford argues that inevitable distractions often render the dailyto-do list ineffective, while leaving room for improvisation in such a list can reap the best results.In order to make the most of our focus and energy, we also need to embrace downtime, or as Newport suggests, "be lazy.""Idleness is not just a vacation, an indulgence or a vice; itis as indispensable to the brain as vitamin D is to thebody...[idleness] is, paradoxically, necessary to getting any work done," he argues.Srini Pillay, an assistant professor of psychiatry at Harvard Medical School, believes this counterintuitive link between downtime and productivity may be due to the way our brains operate. When our brains switch between being focused and unfocused on a task, they tend to be more efficient."What people don't realize is that in order to complete these tasks they need to use both the focus and un focus circuits in their brain," says Pillay.SSS_SIMPLE_SIN16.The key to mastering the art of deep work is to ______.•** every minute to work•** your immediate tasks•** specific daily plans** to your focus timeA B C DSSS_SIMPLE_SIN17.The study in the early 1980s cited by Harford shows that ______.•** are hardly motivated by monthly goals•** plans may not be as fruitful as expected•** may actually increase efficiency** schedules are indispensable to studyingA B C DSSS_SIMPLE_SIN18.According to Newport, Idleness is ______.•** desirable mental state for busy people•** major contributor to physical health•** effective way to save time and energy** essential factor in accomplishing any workA B C DSSS_SIMPLE_SIN19.Pillay believes that our brains' shifts between being focused and unfocused ______.•** bring about greater efficiency•** result in psychological well-being•** driven by task urgency** aimed at better balance at workA B C DSSS_SIMPLE_SIN20.This text is mainly about ______.•** to getting more done in less time•** to relieve the tension of busy life•** key to eliminating distractions** cause of the lack of focus timeA B C DPart BDirections:A.

Skip the small talkConversations are links, which means when you have a conversation with a new person a link gets formed and every conversation you have after that moment will strengthen the link.You meet new people every day: the grocery worker, the cab driver, new people at work or the security guard at the door. Simply starting a conversation with them will form a link.Here are five simple ways that you can make the first move and start a conversation with strangers.1Suppose you are in a room with someone you don't know and something within you says "I want to talk with this person" —this is something mostly happens with all of us. You wanted to say something—the first word—but it just won't come out, it feels like it is stuck somewhere. I know the feeling and here is my advice: just get it out.Just think: what is the worst that could happen? They won'ttalk with you? Well, they are not talking with you now!I truly believe that once you get that first word out everything else will just flow. So keep it simple: "Hi", "Hey" or "Hello"—do the best you can to gather all the enthusiasm and energy you can, put on a big smile and say "Hi".2It's a problem all of us face; you have limited time with the person that you want to talk with and you want to make this talk memorable.Honestly, if we got stuck in the rut of "hi", "hello", "how are you?" and "what's going on?", you will fail to give the initial jolt to the conversation that can make it so memorable.So don't be afraid to ask more personal questions. Trust me, you will be surprised to see how much people are willing to share if you just ask.3When you meet a person for the first time, make an effort to find the things which you and that person have in common so that you can build the conversation from that point. When you start conversation from there and then move outwards, you'll find all of asudden that the conversation becomes a lot easier.4Imagine you are pouring your heart out to someone and they are just busy on their phone, and if you ask for their attention you get the response "I can multitask".So when someone tries to communicate with you, just be in**munication wholeheartedly. Make eye contact. Trust me, eye contact is where all the magic happens. When you make eye contact, you can feel the conversation.5You all came into a conversation where you first met the person, but after some time you may have met again and have forgotten their name. Isn't that awkward!So remember the little details of the people you met or you talked with; perhaps the places they have been to, the places they want to go, the things they like, the things they hate—whatever you talk about.When you remember such things you can automatically become investor in their wellbeing. So they feel a responsibility to you to keep that relationship going.That's it. Five amazing ways that you can make conversation with almost anyone. Every person is a really good book to read, or to have a conversation with!SSS_FILL21.SSS_FILL22.SSS_FILL23.SSS_FILL24.SSS_FILL25.Section Ⅲ TranslationDirections:1.A fifth grader gets a homework assignment to select his future career path from a list of occupations.

The author’s attitude toward Koziatek’s school can be described as_____.A. supportiveB. disappointedC. tolerantD. cautiousText2While fossil fuels- coal, oil, gas- still generate roughly 85 percent of the world's energy supply, it's clearer than ever that the future belongs to renewable sources such as wind and solar. The move to renewables is picking up momentum around the world: They now account for more than half of new power sources going on line.Some growth stems from a commitment by governments and farsighted Business to fund cleaner energy sources. But increasingly the stories about the plummeting prices of renewables, especially wind and solar. The cost of solar panels has dropped by 80 percent and the cost of wind turbines by close to one-third in the past eight years.In many parts of the world renewable energy is already a principal energy source. In Scotland, for example, wind turbines provide enough electricity to power 95 percent of homes. While the rest of the world takes the lead, notably China and Europe, the United States is also seeing a remarkable shift. In March, for the first time, wind and solar power accounted for more than 10 percent of the powergenerated in the US ,reported the US Energy Information Administration.President Trump has underlined fossil fuels - especially coal - as the path to economic growth. In a recent speech in Iowa, he dismissed wind power as an unreliable energy source, But that message did not play well with many in Iowa, where wind turbines dot the fields and provide 36 percent of the state's electricity generation - and where tech giants like Microsoft are being attracted by the availability of clean energy to power their data centers.The question “what happens when the wind doesn' t blow or the sun doesn'tshine" has provided a qui ck put-down for skeptics. But a boost in the storage-capacity of batteries is making their ability to ke ep power flowing around the clock more likely.The advance is driven in part by vehicle manuf acturers, who are placing big bets on battery-powered electricvehicles. Although electric cars are still a rarityon roads now,this massive investment could change the picture rap idly in coming years.While there's a long way to go, the trend lines for renewables are spiking. The pace ofchange in energy sources appears to be speeding up perhaps: just in time to have a meaningful effect in slowing climate change. What Washington does-or doesn't do-to promote alternative energy may mean less and l ess a time of a global shift in thought.26. The word "plummeting"(Line 3, is closest in meaning to ______A. stabilizingB. changingC. fallingD. rising27. According to Paragraph 3,the use of renewable energy in America ______A. is progressing notablyB. is as extensive as in EuropeC. faces many challengesD. has proved to be impractical28. It can be learned that in Iowa,______.A. wind is a widely used energy sourceB. wind energy has replaced fossil fuelsC. tech giants are investing in clean energyD. there is a shortage of clean energy supply29. Which of the following is true about clean energy according to Paragraphs 5&6A. Its application has boosted battery storage.B. It is commonly used in car manufacturing.C. Its continuous supply is becoming a reality.D. Its sustainable exploitation will remain difficult.30. It can be inferred from the last paragraph that renewable energy _____.A. will bring the US closer to other countriesB. will accelerate global environmental changeC. is not really encouraged by the US governmentD. is not competitive enough with regard to its costText 3The power and ambition of the giants of the digital economy is astonishing —Amazon has just announced the purchase of the upmarket grocery chain Whole Foods for $,but two years ago Facebook paid even more than that to acquire the WhatsApp messaging service, which doesn’t have any physical product at all. What WhatsApp offered Facebook was an intricate and finely detailed web of its users’ friendships and social lives.Facebook promised the European commission then that it would not link phone numbers to Facebook identities, but it broke the promise almost as soon as the deal went through. Even without knowing what was in the messages, the knowledge of who sent them and to whom was enormously revealing and still could be. What political journalist, what party whip, would not want to know the makeup of the WhatsApp groups in which Theresa May’s enemies are currently plotting It may be that the value of Whole Foods to Amazon is not so much the 460 shops of owns, but the records of which customers have purchased what.Competition law appears to be the only way to address these imbalances of power. But it is clumsy. For one thing, it is very slow compared to the pace of change within the digital economy. By the time a problem has been addressed and remedied it may have vanished in themarketplace, to be replaced by new abuses of power. But there is a deeper conceptual problem, too. Competition law as presently interpreted deals with financial disadvantage to consumers and this is not obvious when the users of these services don’t pay for them. The users of their services are not their customers. That would be the people who buy advertising from them —and Facebook and Google, the two virtual giants, dominate digital advertising to the disadvantage of all other media and entertainment companies.The product they’re selling is data, and we, the users, convert our lives to data for the benefit of the digital giants.

2018 mba英文作文

2018 mba英文作文英文：When it comes to the topic of MBA, there are always two sides to the debate. Some people believe that getting an MBA degree is a smart choice for career advancement, while others argue that it's a waste of time and money. As someone who has already completed an MBA program, I can see both sides of the argument.On one hand, an MBA degree can provide you with a wealth of knowledge and skills that can help you succeed in your career. For example, I learned about finance, marketing, and management during my MBA program, which has helped me to better understand the business world. Additionally, an MBA degree can give you a competitive edge when it comes to job opportunities and salary negotiations.On the other hand, an MBA degree can be expensive and time-consuming. It can take up to two years to complete anMBA program, and the cost of tuition and fees can be significant. Furthermore, some people argue that the skills and knowledge you gain during an MBA program can be learned on the job or through other means, such as online courses or self-study.中文：谈到MBA这个话题，总是有两种不同的声音。

We can use social media, video calls, and messaging apps to stay in touch with our friends and family members. This helps us feel connected even when we are physically apart.On the other hand, technology can also hinder ourface-to-face interactions with people. Sometimes we spend too much time on our phones or computers and neglect the people around us. We may miss out on important moments or fail to truly connect with others because we are too busy looking at screens.Overall, I think it's important for us to strike a balance between using technology to communicate and making time for real-life interactions. We should remember to put our devices away and focus on the people who are with us in the moment. That way, we can build stronger relationships and create meaningful connections with others.That's all for my thoughts on this topic. I hope it helps you understand the impact of technology on interpersonal relationships.

From smartphones to social media to self-driving cars, technology has completely changed the way we live, work, and communicate.In my essay, I talked about how new technologies have made our lives more convenient and efficient. For example, we can now shop online, pay bills with a tap of our finger, and connect with friends and family around the world instantly. These advancements have definitely made our lives easier and more enjoyable.However, I also discussed the negative effects of technology on modern life. For instance, excessive screen time can lead to health issues like eye strain and obesity. Also, our reliance ontechnology has made us more disconnected from the real world and less able to communicate face-to-face.Overall, I believe that technology is a double-edged sword. It has its benefits and drawbacks, and it's important for us to find a balance between using technology to enhance our lives and not letting it control us.In conclusion, the 2018 postgraduate entrance exam writing question was thought-provoking and allowed me to reflect on the impact of new technologies on modern life.

The 2018 postgraduate entrance examination English composition could explore this theme by examining the multifacetedeffects of technological advancements on traditional educational practices.Firstly, the essay could begin by acknowledging the unprecedented access to information that technology provides. With the internet, students can now delve into a wealth of knowledge at their fingertips, which was previously confinedto the boundaries of a library or a classroom. This has democratized education to some extent, allowing individuals from diverse backgrounds to educate themselves on a global scale.Secondly, the essay might discuss the role of technology in enhancing learning experiences. Interactive tools such as educational apps, online courses, and virtual reality simulations have made learning more engaging and personalized.

One such challengeis the potential distraction it can cause. The same devices that provide access to educational resources can also deliver an endless stream of entertainment and social media, whichcan be a significant source of distraction for students.Moreover, the essay could explore the issue of digital divide, where unequal access to technology can exacerbate educational inequalities. Not all students have the same level of accessto technological resources, which can lead to a disparity in the quality of education received.In conclusion, the essay should reflect on the balance that needs to be struck between leveraging the benefits of technology and preserving the value of traditionaleducational methods. It is crucial to integrate technologyinto education in a way that complements and enhances the learning process, rather than replacing the essentialelements of human interaction and critical thinking that areat the core of traditional education.The essay could end with a call to action for educators, policymakers, and technologists to work together to create an educational environment that harnesses the power oftechnology while ensuring that it serves to improve, rather than undermine, the educational experience.。

2018年考研英语二作文范文In 2018, the topic for the postgraduate entrance examination English writing was "The Power of Dreams". This topic is very thought-provoking. It reminds me of the time when I was a child, full of dreams and aspirations. I wanted to be an astronaut, a doctor, and even a superhero. 。

Dreams are powerful. They drive us to work hard, to overcome obstacles, and to never give up. They give us hope and motivation, and they make life more meaningful. Without dreams, life would be dull and aimless.However, dreams alone are not enough. We need to take action to turn our dreams into reality. We need to set goals, make plans, and work hard. It's important to remember that dreams are not handed to us on a silver platter; we have to earn them.Sometimes, we may face setbacks and failures. But we should never lose sight of our dreams. Instead, we shouldlearn from our mistakes and keep moving forward. As the saying goes, "The future belongs to those who believe in the beauty of their dreams."In conclusion, the power of dreams is undeniable. They inspire us, drive us, and give our lives purpose. But it's up to us to make our dreams come true. So, let's dream big and work hard to make those dreams a reality.。

They are constantly bombarded with information and tasks, struggling to keep up with the demands of their jobs and personal lives. As a result, many people suffer from stress, anxiety, and even burnout.In my opinion, this drawing serves as a wake-up callfor all of us. It reminds us of the importance of finding a balance between work and life, and the need to take a break and relax. It is crucial for us to prioritize our well-being and mental health, instead of being consumed by work and stress. We should learn to manage our time effectively, set boundaries, and seek support when needed. Only by doing so can we maintain a healthy and fulfilling life.In conclusion, the drawing conveys a powerful message about the negative impact of stress and the importance of self-care. It is a timely reminder for all of us to take a step back and reevaluate our priorities, in order to live a more balanced and fulfilling life.。

Mark your answers on the ANSWER SHEET. （40 points）Text 1It is curious that Stephen Koziatek feels almost as though he has to justify his efforts to give his students a better future.Mr.Koziatek is part of something pioneering. He is a teacher at a New Hampshire high school where learning is not something of books and tests and mechanical memorization, but practical. When did it become accepted wisdom that students should be able to name the 13th president of the United States but be utterly overwhelmed by a broken bike chain?As Koziatek knows, there is learning in just about everything. Nothing is necessarily gained by forcing students to learn geometry at a graffitied desk stuck with generations of discarded chewing gum. They can also learn geometry by assembling a bicycle.But he’s also found a kind of insidious prejudice. Working with your hands is seen as almost a mark of inferiority. Schools in the family of vocational education “have that stereotype, that it’s for kids who can’t make it academically,” he says.On one hand, that viewpoint is a logical product of America’s evolution. Manufacturing is not the economic engine that it once was. The job security that the US economy once offered to high school graduates has largely evaporated. More education is the new principle. We want more for our kids, and rigitfully so.But the headlong push into bachelor’s degrees for all -and the subtle devaluing of anything less-misses an important point: That’s not the onl y thing the American economy needs. Yes, a bachelor’s degree opens more doors. But even now, 54 percent of the jobs in the country are middle-skill jobs, such as construction and high-skill manufacturing. But only 44 percent of workers are adequately trained.In other words, at a time when the working class has turned the country on its political head, frustrated that the opportunity that once defined America is vanishing, one obvious solution is staring us in the face. There is a gap in working-class jobs, but the workers who need those jobs most aren’t equipped to do them. Koziatek’s Manchester School of Technology High School is trying to fill that gap. Koziatek’s school is a wake-up call. When education becomes one-size-fits-all, it risks overlooking a nation’s diversity of gifts.21. A broken bike chain is mentioned to show students’ lack of______.A. mechanical memorizationB. academic trainingC. practical abilityD. pioneering spirit22. There exists the prejudice that vocational education is for kids who______.A. are financially disadvantagedB. are not academically successfulC. have a stereotyped mindD. have no career motivation23. We can infer from Paragraph 5 that high school graduates______.A. are entitled to more “educational privilegesB. are reluctant to work in manufacturingC .used to have more job opportunitiesD. used to have big financial concerns24. The headlong push into bachelor’s degrees for all_____.A. helps create a lot of middle-skill jobsB. may narrow the gap in working-class jobsC. is expected to yield a better-trained workforceD. indicates the overvaluing of higher education25. The author’s attitude toward Koziatek’s school can be described as_____.A. supportiveB. disappointedC. tolerantD. cautiousText2While fossil fuels- coal, oil, gas- still generate roughly 85 percent of the world's energy supply, it's clearer than ever that the future belongs to renewable sources such as wind and solar. The move to renewables is picking up momentum around the world: They now account for more than half of new power sources going on line.Some growth stems from a commitment by governments and farsighted Business to fund cleaner energy sources. But increasingly the stories about the plummeting prices of renewables, especially wind and solar. The cost of solar panels has dropped by 80 percent and the cost of wind turbines by close to one-third in the past eight years.In many parts of the world renewable energy is already a principal energy source. In Scotland, for example, wind turbines provide enough electricity to power 95 percent of homes. While the rest of the world takes the lead, notably China and Europe, the United States is also seeing a remarkable shift. In March, for the first time, wind and solar power accounted for more than 10 percent of the power generated in the US ,reported the US Energy Information Administration.President Trump has underlined fossil fuels - especially coal - as the path to economic growth. In a recent speech in Iowa, he dismissed wind power as an unreliable energy source, But that message did not play well with many in Iowa, where wind turbines dot the fields and provide 36 percent of the state's electricity generation - and where tech giants like Microsoft are beingattracted by the availability of clean energy to power their data centers.The question “what happens when the wind doesn't blow or the sun doesn'tshine?" has provid ed a quick put-down for skeptics. But a boost in the storage-capacity of batteries is making their ability to keep power flowing around the clock more likely.The advance is driven in part by vehicle manufacturers, who are placing big bets on battery-powered electric vehicles. Although electric cars are still a rarity on roads now, this massive investment could change the picture rapidly in coming years.While there's a long way to go, the trend lines for renewables are spiking. The pace of change in energy sources appears to be speeding up perhaps: just in time to have a meaningful effect in slowing climate change. What Washington does-or doesn't do- to promote alternative energy may mean less and less a time of a global shift in thought.26. The word "plummeting"(Line 3,Para.2) is closest in meaning to ______A. stabilizingB. changingC. fallingD. rising27. According to Paragraph 3, the use of renewable energy in America ______A. is progressing notablyB. is as extensive as in EuropeC. faces many challengesD. has proved to be impractical28. It can be learned that in Iowa,______.A. wind is a widely used energy sourceB. wind energy has replaced fossil fuelsC. tech giants are investing in clean energyD. there is a shortage of clean energy supply29. Which of the following is true about clean energy according to Paragraphs 5&6?A. Its application has boosted battery storage.B. It is commonly used in car manufacturing.C. Its continuous supply is becoming a reality.D. Its sustainable exploitation will remain difficult.30. It can be inferred from the last paragraph that renewable energy _____.A. will bring the US closer to other countriesB. will accelerate global environmental changeC. is not really encouraged by the US governmentD. is not competitive enough with regard to its costText 3The power and ambition of the giants of the digital economy is astonishing —Amazon has just announced the purchase of the upmarket grocery chain Whole Foods for $13.5bn, but two years ago Facebook paid even more than that to acquire the WhatsApp messaging service, which doesn’t have any physical product at all. What WhatsApp offered Facebook was an intricate and finely detailed web of its users’ friendships and social lives.Facebook promised the European commission then that it would not link phone numbers to Facebook identities, but it broke the promise almost as soon as the deal went through. Even without knowing what was in the messages, the knowledge of who sent them and to whom was enormously revealing and still could be. What political journalist, what party whip, would not want to know the mak eup of the WhatsApp groups in which Theresa May’s enemies are currently plotting? It may be that the value of Whole Foods to Amazon is not so much the 460 shops of owns, but the records of which customers have purchased what.Competition law appears to be the only way to address these imbalances of power. But it is clumsy. For one thing, it is very slow compared to the pace of change within the digital economy. By the time a problem has been addressed and remedied it may have vanished in the marketplace, to be replaced by new abuses of power. But there is a deeper conceptual problem, too. Competition law as presently interpreted deals with financial disadvantage to consumers and this is not obvious when the users of these services don’t pay for them. The users of their services are not their customers. That would be the people who buy advertising from them — and Facebook and Google, the two virtual giants, dominate digital advertising to the disadvantage of all other media and entertainment companies.The product they’re selling is data, and we, the users, convert our lives to data for the benefit of the digital giants. Just as some ants farm the bugs called aphids for the honeydew they produce whe31.According to Paragraph1，Facebook acquired WhatsApp for its 。

The lively videos and photos I took there remind me of the wonderful/awesome/lovelymoments I enjoyed.

A letter of complaintDear Manager,I am writing to you to lodge/make a complaint about the service and quality of some dim-sum in your restaurant. My colleagues and I went to dine there acouple of days ago.Tang Palace is known for its tasty dim-sum, quality service and efficient management of the staff. However, I have to point out the fact that the service in one of your chain restaurants near the waterfront is far below the standard. Worse still, some of the dim-sum are too salty. Though we complained to the head waitress on the site, she did not care about it at all. She just gave us a blank look, which was really provocative/annoying.I do hope some measures must be taken to ensure good service and high quality of food. Otherwise, Tang Palace can’t live up to its hard-built reputation. Meanwhile, I also expect a decent apology from the restaurant.Look forward to your prompt reply.RegardsLi MingLi Ming3) Dear College students,This is a letter from a businessman with overten years of working experience in the IT /luxury goods /consulting industry.The world is changing unprecedentedly fast, and the competition in the job market is getting ever-increasingly fierce/severe.

The whole afternoon will be devoted to team building, which will be held in an open space. Through team building, we will get to know each other better.It is a pity that we have merely one day.
