II. Grammar and Vocabulary
Section A
Directions: After reading the passage below, fill in the blanks to make the passage coherent and grammatically correct. For the blanks with a given word, fill in each blank with the proper form of the given word; for the other blanks, use one word that best fits each blank.
Ten year-old Annemarie Johansen lives with her family in Copenhagen, Denmark. There are soldiers on the streets, and the country (21) ______ (occupy) by the Nazis. There isn't enough to eat, and the world is at war. Then the Nazis decide to"relocate"the country's Jewish population. The Danes don't know (22) ______ their friends and neighbors are being taken away. They don't know where they are going, either. But they do know that it is wrong and dangerous and that they must help.
Number the Stars is a very powerful novel. During World War II, the Nazis (23) ______ (kill) millions of people in Europe. Many of those people were Jewish. But in Denmark, almost all of the Jewish population was saved. Number the Stars is a work of fiction, but it tells the true story of the Jewish (24) ______ (rescue) during the war. The moving plot is driven by justice, danger and excitement. But the book also deals with significant ideas that are much (25) ______ (big) than the story itself.
Annemarie must learn that evil doesn't just appear in fairy tales. It's a real thing that affects real people. She must also struggle with questions of loyalty and sacrifice. Who would she die to protect? And is she brave enough (26) ______ (make) that sacrifice? Most importantly, Annemarie learns that (27) ______ (be) brave doesn't mean being fearless.

Section B
Directions:After reading the passage below, fill in each blank with a proper word given in the box. Each word can be used only once. Note that there is one more word than you need.
In most democracies today, people expect women to vote. Women are just as able to make decisions about their 31 leaders as men. But 200 years ago, most people didn't think so.
As late as the middle of the 19th century only men voted in most Western countries.
A few countries or states let women vote in local elections. But women voting was far from 32 . At that time, people believed that women belonged in the home. That meant they should not get involved with public life.
But women in Europe, North America and New Zealand began 33 this situation. They believed that they should have a(n) 34 in their government's leaders. In 1792 an English novelist named Mary Wollstonecraft 35 that women should be able to vote. In the United States, Lucretia Mott and Elizabeth Cady Stanton were important figures. They met while campaigning to put a(n) 36 to slavery. In the process, they decided that women also should have more 37 .
Yet despite the 38 of these women neither Great Britain nor the United States was the first country to let women vote. That honor goes to New Zealand, which changed their law on September 19, 1893. This was because of women like Kate Shepherd. She led a group that presented petitions（请愿书） to their parliament three years in a row. Shepherd is now honored on New Zealand's $10 bill.
New Zealand was followed by Australia in 1902 and Finland in 1906. By this time, some U.S. states and territories allowed women to vote. But the country as a whole didn't give women the right until after World War I.
In many countries, the right to hold political office came along with the right to vote. And women have 39 that right. In many countries, women have even held their country's highest office. All of that is due to the efforts of the women who fought for a(n) 40 voice.
III. Reading Comprehension
Section A
Directions: For each blank in the following passage there are four words or phrases marked A, B, C and D. Fill in each blank with the word or phrase that best fits the context.
The search for new, clean energy sources has occupied the attention of scientists and politicians for years. One common 41 for green energy is the wind. A new twist on this old resource could cause the energy output of wind-power plants to increase greatly.
Standard wind-power plants rely on strong support and 42 can only reach a height of 200 meters or so. Higher than that, winds tend to be stronger and steadier, but the challenge is 43 how to obtain the energy from those winds.
Delft University of Technology in the Netherlands and Karlsruhe University of
Applied Sciences in Germany have formed a kite-power research group. The group is working to develop kites with inflatable（可充气的）wings 44 to electrical generators (发电机) on the ground.
The research group's goal is to design a kite that can operate on its own for 24 hours. Research has begun, but many challenges remain, including making the generators more 45 and perfecting the automatic flight control and the structure of the kites. Nevertheless in June 2012, they demonstrated that their kites could operate 46 at an altitude of up to 700 meters.
Meanwhile, in Italy, researchers are working on a(n) 47 power generator that relies on kites when the generator called KiteGen, senses the wind blowing, kites are 48 from the ends of poles with high-resistance cables to control their height and angle. These cables are able to move the kites if the system senses coming objects 49 planes, helicopters or even individual birds. The kites themselves are light, tough and able to reach fairly high altitudes. They loop （绕行）around in the wind, which sets the center of the generator in motion, 50 electric current.
KiteGen has the 51 to be very cost-effective in the long run. After the original cost of designing and setting up the plant, little 52 investment will be necessary, apart from standard maintenance. The plant also requires 53 little space, which makes it ideal for cities and means that multiple plants can be set up to provide even more 54 .
Kite power has the potential to greatly 55 on current wind-power strategies. In the future, it may be an efficient, cost-effective supplement to the other sources of energy we use, or even a replacement for some of them.
41.A.resolution B.proposal C.resource D.substitute
42.A.generally B.frequently C.continually D.regularly
43.A.carrying out B.figuring out C.breaking out D.picking out
44.A.chosen B.applied C.collected D.connected
45.A.efficient plete C.powerful D.positive
46.A.actively B.passively C.automatically D.artificially
47.A.strange B.similar C.different D.original
48.A.fastened B.revealed C.tailored D.released
49.A.except for B.instead of C.such as D.due to
50.A.producing B.inventing C.promoting D.developing
51.A.qualification B.potential C.trend D.intention
52.A.normal B.formal C.additional D.alternate
53.A.concretely B.abstractly C.thoroughly D.relatively
54.A.energy B.strength C.technology D.opportunity
55.A.focus B.extend C.improve D.transfer
Section B
Directions:Read the following three passages. Each passage is followed by several questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage you have just read.
(A)
Many people experience problems with their spine(脊椎) as they age. The tissue that protects the joints in the spine gradually breaks down. As a consequence, the bones in the spine begin to rub against each other. This further harms the tissue as well as the bones. The result is pain in the joints and, sometimes, in nerves near the spine.
This painful problem is actually a disease called osteoporosis. Some people are more at risk of osteoporosis because of genes that they inherited from their ancestors. Extremely heavy people are also more likely to suffer from this disease because their extra weight puts much pressure on their joints. Fortunately, there are steps that people can take to help prevent osteoporosis from developing in their spine.
The most important step is exercise. Stretches can help the muscles around the spine relax and allow bones to shift into better alignment(排列). Strength exercises with light weights or body weight exercises like pushups can also help by strengthening the muscles around the spine. However, people should not overdo these exercises, as repeated motions can strain the muscles around the spine. Trying to lift heavy weights with poor technique can have the same effect.
Another important factor is diet. It affects the health of the spine because many vitamins are necessary for bones and nerves. These include B vitamins and omega-3 fatty acids, all of which help keep nerves healthy. People can get more B vitamins and omega 3 fatty acids by taking supplements sold by stores. Another important factor is vitamin D, which is essential for strong bones. All of these vitamins and acids can be obtained from foods. Thus, people can help themselves by including them in their daily diets.

B. By analyzing a series of data
C. By introducing minor injuries
D. By describing a gradual process
58. What can readers find in this article?
A. A warning about working out too hard
B. A method for improving sleep quality
C. A slogan used to promote health classes
D. A big criticism often aimed at doctors
59.What does the article imply about supplement?
A. They are mainly for youngsters.

(B)
In late March of 2018, a tear in the earth
about 15 meters wide and 20 meters deep suddenly
appeared in Kenya. It cut across roads and even
split houses in two. This crack appeared out of
nowhere after heavy rains and an increase in
seismic(地震的) activity. Some scientists
believe that it's further proof that Africa is
slowly splitting apart.
Once, a very long time ago, Africa and South
America were one landmass before they separated.
Similarly, one day in the very distant future,
a large part of East Africa will split off from
the rest of the continent. This will create a
new landmass and a new ocean. The breakup is a
result of plate tectonics(板块运动), the
gradual motion of different parts of the Earth's crust.
When plates of the Earth separate and tear away from each other, it is called rifting. The result is a rift valley. Scientists don't understand the exact mechanism behind rifting, but the results are easy to observe in the East African Rift System( EARS). That's why studying this part of the world is so important.
The East African Rift System begins in the north in Ethiopia, where three plates are moving away from each other. Two of them are continental plates, the African and Arabian plates. They are tectonic plates that have a large landmass above water. The third is the Somali plate, considered a minor plate, which is steadily moving away from the other two. But don't plan on visiting the new ocean anytime soon. The plates are moving at a rate of about 6 millimeters a year. At that speed, millions of years will pass before a new ocean is formed.
EARS is not all bad news for Kenya. A rift valley is composed of an area where there is increased volcanic activity and thinned planetary crust. This makes it easier to take advantage of the power of steam. For Kenya, this might be an answer to the country's electrical problems. The drought conditions that frequently occur there make it difficult to produce energy. But the geothermal(地热的) power plants going online in 2019 will allow them to produce clean energy with very little water.
60.What can be concluded from the passage?
A.A war will certainly break out in Africa.
B.A disaster will suddenly strike Africa.
C.A geological structure will change in Africa.
D.A new country will come into being in Africa.
61.Which of the following plates might be surrounded by water according to the passage?
A.East Africa.
B. Somali plate.
C. Arabian plate.
D. Africa plate.
62.What problem may be solved in Kenya thanks to the cracking?
A.Poverty.
B. Economy.
C. Drought.
D. Energy.
(C)
Are you worried about money? If so, I have some good news for you. Someone once said, "If all your problems can be solved with money, then you don't have any. "I get the point. Unless you are on the edge of losing everything and living in your car (which is a very sad thing that happens to people every day), your perceptions of your problems may not be serving you well.
Let's take a look. Can you pay your living expenses and support your family? If so, you are OK. Even if you are a family that just barely breaks even every month, you have to count that as a blessing. Most of us also have those terrible, surprising unexpected bills. But unless you lose your job or your mind, don't you always find a way to take care of those expenses?
PERTINENT（切中要害的） QUESTIONS
To see if you worry too much about finances, ask yourself a couple of questions. Do you wake up worried about money? Do you check your bank balance and look at upcoming bills more than once every few days or even multiple times a day? If so, then you may have a little financial insecurity going on. Let's look at getting it under control. If it's making you crazy, it can make your family a little crazy too. This type of anxiousness is passed on to others, which is important to remember whenever you have the urge to share your fears.
TOO MUCH INFORMATION
TMI (too much information) happens because it seems that by releasing pent-up （压抑的）feelings of anxiety you will feel better and hopefully more supported. And this can happen, but not with your loved ones because they will take on your fear and magnify it. Talk instead with your financial advisor, your bank manager or your therapist. Laying your financial fears at the feet of your family is not good for them or for you. Yes, be honest about any problems, but if you get emotional, so will those closest to you.
POSITIVE ACTION
It's hard to be dispassionate about money, but honestly, it's really the best way to get this issue solved. You have to look at it from a practical standpoint.
Go over your debts, look closely at your assets and determine the best thing for you to do with your time right now.
Maybe you need to use this time to get your books in order on your computer or use it to job hunt or to promote your business. Then again, you may need to hire an accountant and go on some interviews. The point is simple: the only way to relieve yourself of the uncomfortable feeling of financial pressure is to take some kind of positive action.
63.Which of the following is true according to the passage?
A.Financial problems are not vital ones in everyone's daily life.
B.You'd better calm down when you have financial problems.
C.You needn't worry about unexpected bills even if you're out of work.
D.When you have financial fears, remember to share feelings with others.
64.The passage implies that ______.
A.the best way to deal with money problem is to take positive action
B.as long as we share feelings with others, money fear will disappear
C.we should have an optimistic attitude toward financial fears
D.any problem we meet can be solved with the help of money
65.The phrase lay your financial fears at the feet of your family in the sixth paragraph
probably means ______.
A.to solve financial fears caused by your family
B.to help your family smartly avoid financial fears
C.to make your family responsible for financial fears
D.to encourage your family to face financial fears bravely.
66.The best title of the passage is ______.
A.Perceptions of money and value
B. Passion, money and family
C. Keeping balance of psychology
D. Dealing with money worries
Section C
Directions: Complete the following passage by using the sentences in the box. Each sentence can only be used once. Note that there are two sentences more than you need.
of the most common. Nobody enjoys feeling guilty, but this emotion serves an important purpose: It alerts a person when he or she has done something wrong. This enables the person to make amends and work to heal relationships that were damaged by their actions. 67
Nevertheless, guilt can be destructive if it is not dealt with in the right way. It can cause people to avoid others because they are too embarrassed to apologize for their actions or inaction. Some try to avoid the pain of guilt by turning to other worse habits. 68
The proper response to guilt depends on what kind of guilt you're dealing with. For false guilt, it's important to recognize that the guilt does not reflect an actual ethical failure.
For example, some false guilt focuses on falling to meet expectations you had for yourself.
69 No one is perfect, and no one can do everything, so admitting your limits is actually a sign of humility.
It's also important to acknowledge what you are feeling. Even when you don't need to feel guilty, these feelings are real and normal. Try to balance them with positive thoughts, but realize that it often takes time for feelings to change.
70 If so, don't try to conceal it. Apologize and ask for forgiveness. Learn from your mistakes, and try to avoid committing the same acts again. Getting on well with the person you hurt should make your guilty feelings fade.
Guilt is painful, but it can serve a good purpose if you use it well.
IV. Summary Writing
71. Directions:Read the following passage. Summarize the main idea and the main point(s) of the passage in no more than 60 words. Use your own words as far as possible.
Have you ever been involved in an animal rescue? This is what happened to Winter the dolphin. Winter was found off the coast of Florida in December of 2005. She was just a few months old, alone, and caught in a crab trap. The ropes from the trap were wrapped tightly around her body.
The fisherman who found her called for help, and a rescue team soon arrived. The ropes had cut off the blood circulation to her tail. She was badly hurt. Her rescuers didn't think she would survive. Hoping for a miracle and racing against time to save her, the rescuers transferred her to the Clearwater Marine Aquarium in Florida.
The doctors managed to save Winter, but sadly, not her tail. Her tail flukes were too damaged and had to be removed so Winter could live.
The little dolphin Winter survived against all odds, but she would never be able to swim normally without a tail. Thankfully the story doesn't end here. Winter was able to swim, but not very well. Because she didn't have a tail, she moved her body in a side-to-side motion like a shark. But the doctors at the aquarium were worried that the unconventional movement would hurt her spine.
Kevin Carroll heard Winter's story and thought he could help. He is a specialist
who designs and provides prostheses(义肢) for people. If he could help people, why not help a dolphin? He started working with Winter and came up with a solution for a new fluke and tail section.
Kevin designed a stretchy sleeve to fit Winter's body and protect her skin. Then a tail made of silicone and plastic was made to tightly fit over the sleeve. Now Winter can swim like other dolphins. And, she is a great inspiration to people who struggle with their own injuries.
