Long after the end of thebeforeschool year, students start their summer vacation job search. They send letters to businesses, goinggoto job interviews, and ask our friends and relatives for help. By June the students usually havetheirbeen found their jobs and then they begin preparing to enter the world of works.workReasons for wanting a summer job differs from student to student. Some work^ help pay theirdiffer toschool expenses; others work to gain experience in their chosen professions; still others work justfor the funny of it. Salesmen or waiters are two of the much common jobs that students try to findfun and mostduring the summer months.（1）Dear Alice,I can feel from your email that this issue with your parents is greatly affecting you and really appreciate that youtrust me enough to want my advice.Coincidentally, I met a similar situation last summer. Initially, like you, I really didn’t want to go travelling with my parents. But then I thought of things from their point of view. I go to university next year, so, for them, this may have been the last time we’d all travel together as a family. I understood that rather than trying to control me, they just wantedto spend more time with me, so I chose to go and we had a fantastic time together!I think you shouldn’t be in such a hurry to grow up. Treasure the time you have with your parents now as neither younor they will be around forever.I hope my own experience helps you and that you find a solution.Yours,Li Hua（2）Dear Alice,I’m flattered to know you have such confidence in my opinions that you would write to me for advice, but more importantly I’m sorry to read that you’re having this problem with your parents.I think that you should explain to your parents that you are mature enough to travel without their supervision. It’s natural for parents to worry, so why don’t you show them where you plan to go, who you’re go ing with and where you will stay. It might also help if you introduce your friends to reassure them. Finally provide them with the contact details so they can get in touch with you.Parents often resist their children growing up. It’s up to you to gently s how them it is time to loosen the strings.I hope this advice will be useful to you and good luck with your decision.Yours,Li Hua447435619.doc Page 1 of 1。

Ifs no secret that your personal characteristics directly affect how you interact with the world—but you might be surprised at just how deep it goes.Experts think that your personality can even affect how you exercise and influence what sports are suitable for you.Highly SensitiveHighly sensitive people may be more uncomfortable with group exercise classes or team sports where they feel their every move is being observed.Additionally,they may feel more upset over an ineffective or poor workout,says researcher Elaine Aron.For such people,individual or non-competitive activities like biking,running and hiking are ideal.Type A PersonalityType A individuals often have an4t all or nothing approach71to exercise.This personality type is known for sticking closely to their plan,not to mention being super competitive.However,this can cause them to stick too closely to a fitness routine,which means they might try to push past an injury.To get better exercise results,Type A people need to be aware that following an exercise plan too strictly may limit their progress.They should be more flexible and listen to their body, especially when they are in pain.Type B PersonalityThis laid-back group may get too lazy about their exercise plan,which prevents them from seeing results.They are often less willing to deVote enough time and energy to their fitness goals, especially if exercise is something that makes them anxious.Type B individuals succeed in creative and co-operative environments,so team sports and group gym classes may be perfect.Remember,there are plenty of ways you can adapt a fitness plan to suit your needs, regardless of your characteristics.Just keep in mind what you like.21.Why might highly sensitive people be unwilling to take part in group sports?A.They will feel like they are being evaluated.B.They don't like socialising with other people.C.They don't consider themselves to be athletic.D.They fear they511be let down by their teammates.22.Type A personalities can be best described as_.mittedB.flexibleC.independentD.sensitive23.What is the purpose of the text?A.To help people understand what personality type they are.B.To explain how personal characteristics affect exercise habits.C.To identify the dangers of doing the wrong type of exercise.D.To describe diflcrent types of workouts that are available today.typical pre-teen.She loves to skip rope,read and play with her younger sister.But this modest youngster,who composed her first musical work at age six,first short opera at age seven,and first full-length opera based on Cinderella at age ten,is anything but average.Though her parents downplay her extraordinary talent,young Alma is being described as"little Mozart"by the music world.Alma's operatic take on the classic fairy tale,which she began writing at age eight,has a slight twist.Her Cinderella is a musician who meets her Prince Charming through a song.t4In my Cinderella,she sings the beginning of a ballad—but at midnight she flees.Eventually,the prince finds her after asking all the maidens of the land to sing the end of the ballad.^^ The opera was first performed in Vienna,Austria on December29,2016,where the then eleven-year-old skillfully switched between the piano and the violin and received enthusiastic reviews. The young genius has since performed two new piano works,one in Austria and the other in China.While this may appear to be a lot for someone so young,Alma is not worried.She says,"Of course1have to work hard.But all children have to work hard for exams,and at least when I work hard,I work hard for something incredibly exciting,like seeing my whole opera put on stage."Alma's musical talent first came to light before she could even talk.Her parents recall that as an18-month-old toddler,she was able to hum a pitch perfect version of the children's rhyme Twinkle Twinkle Little Star.However,Alma's abilities only gained international attention in2012,after a family friend posted a video online comparing her to Mozart.The family was suddenly swamped with media requests and Alma became an overnight star,dubbed/'little Mozart".This nickname makes her parents unhappy because they believe it puts added pressure on the young girl.They would instead prefer her to be called“a composer and musician^^.Alma does not want to be compared to the famous artist either,saying,'There was only one Mozart,and I prefer to be little Alma."Regardless of what she calls herself,the twelve-year-old is changing the world of music forever!24.What do we know about Alma Deutscher?A.She comes from a famous musical family.B.She has shown great musical talent from a young age.C.She regularly performs the classical music of Mozart.D.She has adapted some famous works of classical music.25.How did Alma get to be widely known?A.Through an online video.B.By performing on television.C.By putting on an opera.D.Through her parents*promotion.26.What is Alma's attitude towards her success?A.She is still unsatisfied with her performance.B.She is uncomfortable with so much pressure.C.She is modest about her musical achievements.D.She is proud to have become a professional musician.27.What can we infer about Alma's parents?A.They are very well-educated people.B.They are protective of their daughter.C.They have pushed Alma to take up music.D.They have made a good life plan for Alma.cThe belief that new technologies are causing the death of work is the idea that never goes away.Despite evidence to the contrary,we still view technological change today as being more rapid and dramatic in its consequences for work than ever before.But this is nothing new.People have always viewed the technological changes that take place during their lives as the most dramatic and dangerous that ever have happened in history.In the1930s,the British economist（经济学家）John Maynard Keynes predicted the widespread use of electricity would produce a world where people spent most of their time doing nothing.In the United States during the1960s,the government repeatedly investigated fears that automatic machines would permanently reduce the amount of work available.In1988,one Australian historian claimed that at least a quarter of the workforce would be without jobs within10years because of computers.Of course,none of these disasters came to pass in the United Kingdom,the United States and Australia,or anywhere else.Yet today,we are seeing the return of these predictions,with some experts claiming the world of work is once more undergoing radical and unprecedented change.They argue that robots and other workplace technologies are causing a reduction in the total amount of work available,or are bringing a more rapid pace of substitution of machines for humans than has been seen previously.But there is little evidence to support such beliefs.Statistics show that the percentage of people in work,the number of hours they work,and how frequently they change jobs have remained remarkably constant over the past20years.This stability should not come as a surprise.There are good reasons why we should not expect new technologies to cause the death of work.New technologies always cause job losses, but that is only part of the story.What also needs to be understood is how they increase the amount of work available.One way this happens is through the increases in incomes that accompany the use of new technologies.With the introduction of these technologies,goods and services can be produced faster,which results in higher real incomes for workers.Higher incomes then increase demand for other products and consequently more workers are needed to make them.Additionally,while new technologies are likely to substitute for some types of workers,they will also increase demand for other types of workers,especially those with higher level skills and expertise.So,the end of work is no closer today than at any time in the past.But there is still a need to keep disproving the prediction,to reduce people's fears.28.What is the function of the second paragraph?A.To explain the importance of developing new technology.B.To show how technology affected employment in the past.C.To argue that technological dangers are becoming more serious.D. To give historical examples of unnecessary fear about new technology.29.How can employment statistics over the past20years best be described?A.Confusing.B.Reliable.C.Stable.D.Variable.30.According to paragraph7,why does demand for products often increase after new technology isintroduced?A.There are more goods for people to choose from.B.There is more demand for new skills in the economy.C.Productivity improvements help raise workers*salaries.D.Higher quality goods at lower prices encourage consumption.31.What is the author's opinion about the introduction of new technology?A.It does not have an effect on most people's jobs.B.Its benefits are usually not worth the introduction.C.It usually leads to a significant increase in employment.__Supermarket shelves are filled with plant-based alternatives to cow milk,including soy,nut, and coconut milk.These products are popular with consumers who cannot drink cows'milk for health reasons,as well as with those concerned about animal welfare and environmental sustainability.While the dairy-free（非乳制的）options work well with cereal or in coffee,they fail miserably when it comes to making milk-based products like cheese or yogurt.However,these shortcomings may soon be a thing of the past,thanks to a new company in California,which has figured out how to create animal-free milk in a laboratory!Perumal Gandhi and Ryan Pandya founded the company in2014after becoming increasingly annoyed with the lack of cows'milkalternatives,particularly for cheese.For Gandhi,who stopped consuming animal products five years earlier due to environmental and animal welfare concerns,the motivation to create a better alternative stemmed from his love of cheesy pizza.Pandya was spurred into taking action after being forced to eat some^really bad" dairy-free cream cheese on his sandwich.The two MIT biomedical engineering scientists decided to join forces to create a more realistic alternative to dairy-based products.In their university lab,the pair spent nine months first isolating cow DNA then inserting it into yeast（酵母）.This genetic modification enabled the yeast to produce the necessary milk proteins.The final step of the process involved mixing the proteins with some plant nutrients and fats.The dairy milk not only tastes like the real thing but is also healthier,has a longer shelflife and,most important of all,is Earth friendly.According to the company's website,when compared to conventional milk production,their process uses65%less energy,creates84%less greenhouse gas emissions and requires91%less land and an amazing98%less water!Best of all,since it contains real milk proteins,the product behaves like the cow-produced version,which means vegetarian consumers will no longer have to deal with soggy cheese on their sandwiches and pizzas.The company plans to bring their creation to market later this year and their first product will most likely be cheese since there are already numerous good cows'milk alternatives available to i32.The underlined word"those"in paragraph1refers to_______.A.alternativesB.peopleC.productsD.reasons33.The company^founders were motivated to make the new product because of______.A.their deep concern for the environmentB.their worry that farm animals were poorly treatedC. the over-consumption of the dairy-based productsD.the poor taste of dairy-free cheese presently available34.What can be inferred from paragraph4?A.The dairy-free products cannot be stored for a long time.B.The new products will taste better than dairy-based ones.C. Cow farming causes considerable environmental damage.D.The dairymilk will be more expensive than cow's milk.35.Which of the following can be the best title for the text?A.Healthier CheeseB.New Milk Saves PlanetC.

house except for the unexpected silence．Manu finally woke up at around 9o'clock．He looked at the clock and ran to the kitchen，crying out，"Mamma!Why didn't you wake me up？I am really late for school．"He couldn't stop crying．"I have a maths test today and Madam Mangat will punish me if I miss her class and the test!"Madam Mangat was the strictest teacher in Manu's school．The fear of m issing her class made Manu cry even louder．"Mamma，what should I do now？Please help．I promise I will wake up every day on time．" Akhila could no longer see her son crying and said，"Just promise me one more thing that you will do your daily task on time without pestering you to do it．"Sure Mamma!I promise!Akhila said in a loving voice．"I have already got permission from your math teacher and she has

know some of the reasons for the choices，but food scientist Dr．Brian Wansink has fou nd that we are unaware of 90% of our food decision．Here are some"big ideas"in his research on the hidden power that drives our eating．Food for thoughtIn one of the studies，Dr．Wansink made volunteers eat chocolate yogurt in a dark room．He told them the yogurt was with a taste of strawberry even though they were all eating chocolate．Finally，65% of volunteers described the yogurt as having a"nice strawberry flavor!"The research shows that our imagination has an effect on our taste．If you expect a food to taste good，it will．So take a moment before you eat your unpleasant healthy food to r emind yourself that you are eating delicious fish and chips．Our eyes eat firstHow your food looks is just as important as how it tastes．Dr．Wansink gave cakes to three groups of people．The cakes were exactly the same but served in different ways．①Group one got the cake on a nice plate．②Group two got the cake on a paper plate．③Group three got the cake on a piece of paper．Dr．Wansink then asked the people how much they would pay for each cake．Dr．Wansink then asked the people how much they would pay for each cake．①Group one who got the cake on a nice plate would pay $1.27．②Group two who got the cake on a paper plate would pay 76 cents．③Group three who got the cake on a piece of paper would pay 53 cents．Take some time to make your healthy food look amazing．Cut your fruit into a flower shape and put your colourful vegetables on nice plates．This works really well for your appetite （胃口）．Out of sight，out of stomachDr．Wansink also found that when people sat at the desk full of snacks，they ate 71% more of snacks a day than those sitting near a clear table．We eat what we see．As a result，put all the unhealthy food in your fridge．Hide it and make it really hard to get to．The closer bad food is，the more you eat it．31．How many ideas are mentioned in the passage？A.3．B.4．C.5．D.6．32．Why did the

of the show．He says he can correctly tell the height from which a balloon was dropped by listening to the sound of the balloon landing．Another contestant，Wang Feng，is a memory master who broke the

to choose the right person from 21 singers as they are all singing together，just according to a three﹣second mp3．Baidu is confident that Xiaodu has the ability to do well in this difficult TV test，because the company has paid a h uge amount of money for the study of AI robot and supercomputers，as well as speech，image，and facial recognition．In addition，it is not the first time that Chinese

AIt ’nos secret that your personal characteristics directly affect how you interact with theworld-but you might be surprised at just how deep it goes. Experts think that your personality can even affect how you exercise and influence what sports are suitable for you. Highly Sensitive Highly sensitive people may be more uncomfortable with group exercise classes or team sports where they feel their every move is being observed. Additionally, they may feel more upset over an ineffective or poor workout, says researcher Elaine Aron.For such people, individual or non- competitive activities like biking, running and hiking are ideal.Type A PersonalityType A individuals often have an “ all or nothing approach ” to exercise. This personalityis type known for sticking closely to their plan, not to mention being super competitive. However, this cancause them to stick too closely to a fitness routine, which means they might try to push past an injury.To get better exercise results, Type A people need to be aware that following an exercise plan too strictly may limit their progress. They should be more flexible and listen to their body, especially when they are in pain.Type B PersonalityThis laid-back group may get too lazy about their exercise plan, which prevents them from seeing results. They are often less willing to devote enough time and energy to their fitness goals, especially if exercise is something that makes them anxiousType B individuals succeed in creative and co-operative environments, so team sports and group gym classes may be perfect.Remember, there are plenty of ways you can adapt a fitness plan to suit your needs, regardless of your characteristics. Just keep in mind what you like.21.Why might highly sensitive people be unwilling to take part in group sportsA.They will feel like they are being evaluated.B.They don't like socialising with other people.C.They don't consider themselves to be athletic.D.They fear they'll be let down by their teammates.22.Type A personalities can be best described asA. committed B flexible C independent D. sensitive23.What is the purpose of the textA.To help people understand what personality type they areB.To explain how personal characteristics affect exercise habitsC.To identify the dangers of doing the wrong type of exerciseD.To describe different types of workouts that are available todayBAt first sight, Alma Deutscher, a twelve-year-old girl from England appears to be like any other typical pre-teen. She loves to skip rope, read and play with her younger sister. But this modest youngster, who composed her first musical work at age six, first short opera at age seven, and firstfull-length opera based on Cinderella at age ten, is anything but average. Though her parents downplay her extraordinary talent, young Alma is being described as“ little Mozart” by the music worldAlma’soperatic take on the classic fairy tale, which she began writing at age eight, has a slight twist. Her Cinderella is a musician who meets her Prince Charming through a song“I.nmy Cinderella, she sings the beginning of a ballad --- but at midnight she flees. Eventually, the prince finds her after asking all the maidens of the land to sing the end of the ballad”.The opera was first performed in Vienna, Australia on December 29, 2016, where the then eleven-year-old skillfully switched between the piano and the violin and receives enthusiastic reviews. The young genius has since performed two new piano works, once in Australia and the other in China.While this may appear to be a lot for someone so young, Alma is not worried.She says, “Of course I have to work hard. But all children have to work hard for exams, and at least when Iwork hard, I work hard for something incredibly exciting, like seeing my whole opera put on stage.Alma’smusical talent first came to light before she could even talk. Her parents recall that as an18-month-old toddler, she was able to hum a pitch perfect version of the children ’srhyme Twinkle Twinkle Little Star.However, Alma’s abilities only gained international attention in 2012, after a family friendposted a video online comparing her to Mozart. The family was suddenly swamped with media requested and Alma became an overnight star, dubbed “little Mozart”.This nickname makes her parents unhappy because they believe it puts added pressure on the young girl. They wouldinstead prefer her to be called “a composer and musician”.Alma does not want to be compared to the famous artist either, saying, “There was only one Mozart, and I prefer to be little Alma. ”Regardless of what she calls herself, the twelve-year-old is changing the world of music forever!24. What do we know about Alma DeutscherA. She comes from a famous musical family.B. She has shown great musical talent from a young age.C. She regularly performs the classical music of Mozart.D. She has adapted some famous works of classical music.25. How did Alma get to be widely knownA. Through an online videoB. By performing on televisionC. By putting on an operaD. Through her parents’promotion26.What is Alma’s attitude towards her successA.She is still unsatisfied with her performance.B.She is uncomfortable with so much pressure.C.She is modest about her musical achievementsD.She is proud to have become a professional musician.27.What can we infer about Alma’s parentsA.They are very well-educated people.B.They are protective of their daughter.C.They have pushed Alma to take up music.D.They have made a good life plan for Alma.CThe belief that new technologies are causing the death of work is the idea that never goes away. Despite evidence to the contrary, we still view technological change today as being more rapid and dramatic in its consequences for work than ever before. But this is nothing new. People have always viewed the technological changes that take place during their lives as the most dramatic and dangerous that ever happened in history.In the 1930s, the British economist(经济学家 ) John Maynard Keynes predicted the widespread use of electricity would produce a world where people spend most of their time doing nothing. In the United States during the 1960s, the government repeatedly investigates fears that automatic machines would permanently reduce the amount of work available. In 1988, one Australian historian claimed that at least a quarter of the workforce would be without jobs within 10 years because of computers.Of course, none of these disasters came to pass in the United Kingdom, the United Statesand Australia, or anywhere else.Yet today, we are seeing the return of these predictions, with some experts claiming the world of work is once more undergoing radical and unprecedented change. They argue that robots and other workplace technologies are causing a reduction in the total amount of work available, or are bringinga more rapid pace of substitution of machines for humans than has been seen previously.But there is a little evidence to support such beliefs. Statistics show that the percentage of people in work, the number of hours they work, and how frequently they change jobs have remained remarkably constant over the past 20 years.This stability should not come as a surprise. There are good reasons why we should not expect new technologies to cause the death of work. New technologies always cause job losses, but thatis only part of the story. What also needs to be understood is how they increase the amount of work available.One way this happens is through the increases in incomes that accompany the use of new technologies. With the introduction of these technologies, good and services can be produced faster, which results in higher real incomes for workers. Higher incomes then increase demand for other products and consequently more workers are needed to make them. Additionally, while new technologies are likely to substitute for some types of workers, they will also increase demand for other types of workers, especially those with higher level skills and expertise.So, the end of work is no closer today than at any time in the past.

These products are popular with consumers who cannot drink cows milk for health ’reasons, as well as with those concerned about animal welfare and environmental sustainability. While the dairy-free( 非乳制的 ) options work well with cereal or in coffee, they fail miserably when it comes to making milk-based products like cheese or yogurt. However, these shortcomings may soon be a thing of the past, thanks to a new company in California, which has figured out how to create animal-free milk in a laboratory!Perumal Gandhi and Ryan Pandya founded the company in 2014 after becoming increasingly annoyed with the lack of cows’milk-free alternatives, particularly for cheese. For Gandhi, who stopped consuming animal products five years earlier due to environmental and animal welfare concerns, the motivation to create a better alternative stemmed from his love of cheesy pizza. Pandya was spurred into taking action after being forced to eat some “really baddairy”-free cream cheese on his sandwichThe two MIT biomedical engineering scientists decided to join forces to create a more realistic alternative to dairy-based products. In their university lab, the pair spent nine months first isolating cow DNA then inserting it into yeast( 酵母 ). This genetic modification enabled the yeast to produce the necessary milk proteins. The final step of the process involved mixing the proteins with some plant nutrients and fats.2018广州市一模英语试卷含答案The dairy-free milk not only tastes like the real thing but is also healthier, has a longer shelf lifeand, most important of all, is Earth friendly. According to the company’ s website,to when conventional milk production, their process uses 65% less energy, creates 84%o less greenhousegas emissions and requires 91% less land and an amazing 98% less water! Best of all, since itcontains real milk proteins, the product behaves like the cow-produced version, which meansvegetarian consumers will no longer have to deal with soggy cheese on their sandwiches and pizzas.The company plans to bring their creation to market later this year and their first product willmost likely be cheese since there are already numerous good cows milk alternatives’ availableto consumers.32. The underlined word "those" in paragraph 1 refers to_______.A. alternativesB. peopleC. productsD. reasons33.The company s founders were motivated to make the new product because of_______.A.their deep concern for the environmentB.their worry that farm animals were poorly treated34.What can be inferred from paragraph 4A.The dairy-free products cannot be stored for a long time.B.The new products will taste better than dairy-based ones.C.Cow farming causes considerable environmental damage.35.Which of the following can be the best title for the textA.Healthier CheeseB.New Milk Saves PlanetC.Fresher Milk, Better FutureD.Making Milk without Cows第二节 (共 5 小题；每题 2 分，满分 10 分)依据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最正确选项。

Darling was walking along the street when she met a homeless man named Billy Ray Harris．She reached into her change purse，emptied out all the coins she had and gave them to the homeless man．Neither of them realized that this small generous act would change their lives．Sarah didn't realize that she had given Billy not only all her change but also her diamond ring that she had put in her change purse earlier until the following morning．She and her husband，Bill Krejci，rushed to see if they could find Billy．The homeless man was not only in the same place，he also immediately returned the ring．The grateful couple paid him back for his honesty by emptying out their pockets of all the money they had．Bill Krejci，a web designer，felt that he needed to do something more for this amazingly honest man．So on February 18th，he set up a special page to raise money for him．In just four days，Billy received over $85，000and there seems to be no end yet．That is not enough．Billy is living with a person who is generous instead of living in the streets．And that's not all﹣thanks to the news report，he got together again with his older brother，Edwin Harris，who he had been unable to find for 27years．All the good luck is just because Billy did the right thing﹣returning something that did not belong to him．36．When did Sarah realize that she had also given Billy the diamond ring？B A．On February 9th，2013．B．On February 10th，2013．C．On February 18th，2013．D．On February 22nd，2013．37．Which of the following is NOT mentioned in the passage？CA．Billy is living with a generous person．B．Billy has found

streetsD．receiving money39．Who did the diamond ring belong to？AA．Sarah Darling．B．Billy Ray Harris．C．Bill Krejci．D．Edwin Harris．40．What's the best title of the passage？CA．Generous Woman Changed Her Own LifeB．Kind Man Set Up Special PageC．Homeless Man Returned Diamond RingD．Many People Donated Much Money【分析】本文是一篇新闻报道，说的是一个无家可归者因为归还了不属于自己的钻石戒指而得到好报的故事．萨拉•达琳在给一个无家可归者（比利）零钱的时候，无意中把自己的钻石戒指也给了他，而她在第二天才发现．正当她焦急万分的时候，比利却上门归还了戒指．夫妻两人很受感动，在他们的帮助下，比利不仅获得了8万多美元的捐款，而且还找到了自己阔别27年之久的哥哥．真是好人有好报．【解答】36．B．细节理解题．根据文中"Sarah didn't realize that she had given Billy not only all her change but also her diamond ring that she had put in her change purse earlier until the following morning"可知，2013年2月9日，萨拉没有意识到她不仅把自己的所有零钱都给了比利，而且也把她放在装零钱的钱包里的钻石戒指也给了她，直到第二天早晨（即2月10日）才发现．故选B．37．C．推理判断题．根据文中"Billy is living with a person who is generous instead of living in the streets"可知，比利和一个非常慷慨的人住在一块，而不是和一个普通人住在一起，故知A在文中提到．根据文中"And that's not all﹣thanks to the news report，he got together again with his older brother，Edwin Harris，who he had been unable to find for 27years"可知，比利找到了自己阔别27年之久的哥哥，故知B在文中提到．根据文中"On February 9th，2013，Sarah Darling was walking along the street when she met a homeless man named Billy Ray Harris"可知，本新闻中提到Billy这个人，故知D在文中出现过．综上可知，文中没有提到比利购买钻石戒指，故选C．38．C．代词指代题．根据文中that之前的"Billy is living with a person who is generous instead of living in the streets"可知，that代指Billy is living with a person who is generous instead of living in the streets，故选C．39．A．细节理解题．根据文中"Sarah didn't realize that she had given Billy not only all her change but also her diamond ring that she had put in her change purse earlier until the following morning"可知，钻石戒指是萨拉的，故选A．40．C 主旨大意题，本题即文章主旨大意．根据文中"All the good luck is just because Billy did the right thing﹣returning something that did not belong to him"可知，比利的好运仅仅是因为他做对了事情，即把不属于自己的东西归还了给了人家，故本问主旨大意是"无家可归者归还钻石戒指"，故选C．24．（10分）配对阅读左栏是对五个人需求的描述，右栏是七间学校的情况，请为每个人选择一个合适的学校，有两项是多余的．并将答题卡上对应的选项涂黑．41．F42．G43．A44．D45．E【分析】左栏是对五个人需求的描述，右栏是七间学校的情况，请为每个人选择一个合适的学校．【解答】41．F

However, this can cause them to stick too closely to a fitness routine, which means they might try to push past an injuiy.To get better exercise results, Type A people need to be aware that following an exercise plan too strictly may limit their progress・ They should be more flexible and listen to their body, especially when they are in pain.Type B PersonalityThis laid-back group may get too lazy about their exercise plan, which prevents them from seeing results.

She loves to skip rope, read and play with her younger sister. But this modest youngster, who composed her first musical work af age six. first short opera at age seven, and first full-length opera based on Cinderella at age ten, is anything but average・Though her parents downplay her extraordinary talent, young Alma is being described as "little Mozart'" by the music world.Alma's operatic take on the classic fairy tale, which she began writing at age eight, has a slight twist. Her C inderella is a musician who meets her Prince Charming through a song・ **ln my Cinder 11 a, she sings the beginning of a ballad— but at midnight she flees ・ Eventually, the prince finds her after asking all the maidens of the land to sing the end of the ballad."The opera was first perfbnned in Vienna, Austria on December 29, 2016, where the then clcvcn-ycar-old skillfully switched between the piano and the violin and received enthusiastic reviews. The young genius has since performed two new piano works, one in Austria and the other in China.While this may appear to be a lot for someone so young. Alma is not worried・ She says, "Of course I have to work hard・ Bui all children have to work hard for exams, and at least when 1 work hard, 1 work hard for something incredibly exciting, like seeing my whole opera put on stage/'Ahna's musical talent first came to light before she could even talk. Iler parents recall that as an 18-nionth-old toddler, she was able to hum a pitch perfect version of the children s rhyme 7\vinkle Twuikle Little Sian However, Alma's abilities only gained intcniational attention in 2012, after a family friend posted a video online comparing her to Mozart. The family was suddenly swamped with media requests and Alma became an overnight star, dubbed "little Mozart M. This nickname makes her parents unhappy because they believe it puts added pressure on the young girl. I hey would instead prefer her to be called "a composer and musician'1・Alma does not want to be compared to the famous artist either, saying, "There was only one Mozart, and I prefer to be little Alma." Regardless of what she calls herself, the tw elve-year-old is changing (he world of music forever?24.Whal do we know about Alma Dcutschcf?A.She conies from a famous musical family.B.She has shown great musical talent from a young age・C.She regularly performs the classical music of Mozart.D・ She has adapted some famous works of classical music・25.How did Alma get to be widely known?A.Through an online video.B. By performing on television・C. By putting on an opera・D・ Through her parents* promotion.26.What is Alma s attitude towards her success?A.She is still unsatisfied with her performance・B.She is uncomfortable with so much pressure・C.She is modest about her musical achievements.D.She is proud to have become a professional musician.27.What can wc infer about Alma s parents?A.They are very well-educated people・B.They are protective of their daughter.C・ They have pushed Alma to take up music.D・ They have made a good life plan for Alma・CThe belief that new technologies are causing the death of work is the idea that never goes away・ Despite evidence to the contrary, we still view technological change today as being more rapid and dramatic in ils Gonscquunccb for work than ever be lure ・Bui ihis is Jiothing new ・People have always viewed the technological changes that take place dunng their lives as the most dramatic and dangerous that ever have happened in history.In the 1930s, the British economist （经济学家）John Maynard Keynes predicted the widespread use of electricity would produce a world where people spent most of their time doing nothing. In the United States during the 1960s, the government repeatedly investigated fears that automatic machines would permanently reduce the amount of work available・ In 丨98& one Australian historian claimed that at least a quarter of the workforce would be without jobs within 10 years because of computers・Of course, none of these disasters came to pass in the United Kingdoin. the United States and Australia, or anywhere else.Yet today, wc arc seeing the remm of these predictions, with some experts claiming the world of work is once more undergoing radical and unprecedented change・ They argue that robots and other workplace technologies are causing a reduction in the total amount of work available, or arc bringing a more rapid pace of substitution of machines for humans than has been seen previously.But there is little evidence to support such beliefs・ Statistics show that the percentage of people in work, the number of hours lhey work, and how frequently they change jobs have remained remarkably constant over the past 20 years.This stability should not come as a surprise・There arc good reasons why wc should not expect new technologies to cause the death of work・ New tcchnohgies always cauj>c job losses, but that is only part of the story. What also needs to be understood is how they increase the amount of work available・One way this happens is through the increases in incomes that accompany the use of new technologies・With the introduction of these technologies, goods and services can be produced faster, which results in higher real incomes for workers・ Higher incomes then increase demand for other products and consequently more workers arc needed to make them・ Additionally, while new technologies are likely to substitute for some types of workers, they will also increase demand for other types of workers, especially those with higher level skills and expertise・So. the end of work is no closer today than at any time in the past. But there is still a need to keep disproving the prediction, to reduce people s fburs.28.What is the function of the second paragraph?A.To explain the importance of developing new technology.B.To show how technology affected employment in the past.C.To argue that technological dangers are becoming more serious・I). To give historical examples of unncccssary r fear about neu technology.29.How can employment statistics over the past 20 years best be described?A. Confusing.B. Reliable.C. Stable.D. Viiriable.3(). According to paragraph 7, why does demand for products often increase after new technology is introduced?A.There are more goods for people to choose fhuri.B.There is more demand for new skills in the cconomy・C・ Prcxiuctivity improvements help raise workers * salaries.【).Higher quality goods at lower prices encourage consumption・31 ・ What is the author^ opinion about the introduction of new technology?A.It does not have an effect on most people's jobs・B.Its benefits arc usually not worth the introduction・C.it usually leads to a significant increase in employment・D.Its danger to people's employment possibilities is overstated.DSupermarket shelves are filled with plant-based alternatives to cow milk, including soy. nut. and coconut milk. These products arc popular with consumers who cannot drink cows' milk for health reasons, as well as with [hose concerned about animal welfare and environmental sustainability. While the dairy-free (非乳制的)options work well with cereal or in coffee, they fail miserably when it comes to making milk・based products like cheese or yogurt・ However, these shoncomings may soon be a thing of the past, thanks to a new company in California, which has figured out how to create animal-free milk in a laboratory?Pcrumal Gandhi and Ryan Pandya founded the company in 2014 after becoming increasingly annoyed with the lack of cows' milkalternatives, particularly for cheese・ For (iandhi, who stopped consuming animal products five years earlier due to environmental and animal welfare concerns, the motivation to create a better alternative stemmed from his love of cheesy pizza・ Pandya was spurred into taking action after being forced to eat some ^really bad" dairy-free cream cheese on his sandwich・The two MIT biomedical engineering scientists decided （o join forces to create a more realistic alternative to dairy-based products・ In their university lab, the pair spent nine months first isolating cow DNA then inserting it into yeast （酵母）.This genetic modification enabled the yeast to produce the necessary milk proteins. The final step of the process involved mixing the proteins with some plant nutrients and fats.The dairy-free milk not only tastes like the real thing but is also healthier, has a longer shelflife and, most important of all, is Earth friendly. According to the company's website, when compared to conventional milk production, their process uses 65% less energy, creates 84% less greenhouse gas emissions and requires 91% less land and an amazing 98% less water! Best of all since it contains real milk proteins, the product behaves like the cow・p「oduccd version, which means vegetarian consumers will no longer have to deal with soggy cheese on their sandwiches and pizzas.The company plans to bring their creation to market later this year and their first product will most likely be cheese since there arc already numerous good cows' milk alternatives available to consumers ・32・The underlined word “those" in paragraph 1 refers to.A.alternativesB. people C・ products D. reasons33.The company's founders were motivated to make the new product because of ___________ ・A・ lheir deep concern for the environmentB.ihcir worry that farm animals were poorly ircaiedC・ the over-consumption of the dairy -based products【）.the poor taste of dairy・fircc cheese presently available34.What can be inferred from paragraph 4?A.The dairy-free products cannot be stored for a long time.B.The new products will taste better than dairy・bascd ones・C.Cow farming causes considerable environmental damage・D.The dairy-free milk will be more expensive than cow's milk.35.Which of the following can be the best title for the text?A.Healthier CheeseB.New Milk Saves PlanetC.Fresher Milk, Better FutureD.Making Milk without Cows笫二节（共5小题;每小题2分・满分10分）根据短文内容，从短文麻的选项中选出能填入空白处的讯件选项。

第四部分第一节The summer job is a tradition among American university students. Long after the end of thebefore school year, students start their summer vacation job search. They send letters to businesses, goinggoto job interviews, and ask our friends and relatives for help. By June the students usually havetheirbeen found their jobs and then they begin preparing to enter the world of works.workReasons for wanting a summer job differs from student to student. Some help pay theirwork^differ toschool expenses; others work to gain experience in their chosen professions; still others work justfor the funny of it. Salesmen or waiters are two of the much common jobsthat students try to findfun and mostduring the summer months.第二部分（1）Dear Alice,I can feel from your email that this issue with your parents is greatly affecting you and really appreciate that you trust me enough to want my advice.Coincidentally, I met a similar situation last summer. Initially, like you, I really didn’t want to go travelling with my par ents. But then I thought of things from their point of view. I go to university next year, so, for them, this may have been the last time we’d all travel together as a family. I understood that rather than trying to control me, they just wanted to spend more time with me, so I chose to go and we had a fantastic time together!I think you shouldn’t be in such a hurry to grow up. Treasure the time you have with your parents now as neither you nor they will be around forever.I hope my own experience helps you and that you find a solution.Yours,Li Hua（2）Dear Alice,I’m flattered to know you have such confidence in my opinions that you would write to me for advice, but more importantly I’m sorry to read that you’re having this problem with your parents.I think that you should explain to your parents that you are mature enough to travel without their supervision. It’s natural for parents to worry, so why don’t you show them where you plan to go, who you’re going with and where you will stay. It might also help if you introduce your friends to reassure them. Finally provide them with the contact details so they can get in touch with you.Parents often resist their children growing up. It’s up to you to gently show them it is time to loosen the strings.I hope this advice will be useful to you and good luck with your decision.Yours,Li Hua附录：书面表达评分参考书面表达旨在考查学生的英语书面表达能力，评价其能否运用相关常识和语言知识进行有效的文字表达，完成特定的交际任务。

(A)Oct 31, 2013 wasn’t just another Halloween for me. While I was dr iving home, a vehicle struck my new car from behind, with a blow that sent me into the busy road. I fought hard to open my eyes for a second, but I lost consciousness (知觉).After I was taken to hospital, the doctors told me I wasn’t going to be able to mov e anything from my neck down.I had lost the use of almost every muscle and was very weak.But at the rehab centre (康复中心), I saw a glimpse of hope and was inspired by other patients with injuries like mine.The first year was slow and I didn’t see much pro gress. My head felt like a heavy ball and I couldn’t hold it up, and my blood pressure would drop all the time.And while the idea of walking or even standing was out of the question, I sure did try.Six months later, I was finally given the green light to return home.However, that’s when the reality of the situation became clear to me.I realized that my life was so different. I was unable to use a phone, and unable to feed or wash myself.I couldn’t grip on to anything, a fork or spoon was too heavy to pick up.I had to learn to be patient with myself, and to enjoy every moment going forward.I was determined to walk again, so giving up was no longer a choice.I fought hard on my recovery and still do to this day. I’m now moving my legs and arms on my own, doing things like working out, swimming, and yoga.All of this is proving my doctors wrong, and is turning the page from the impossible to the possible.My faith (信念), supportive family, friends, and team encourage me to continue to work harder.I believe that this difficulty is an opportunity to grow, become stronger, and keep on fighting to hopefully inspire others not to give up.I learned one lesson from my car accident: Never give up on faith, and never give up on hope.26.Why wasn’t the writer able to move anything from his neck down?A.The road was busy on Halloween.B.He had a fight with other people.C.He was driving carelessly on his way home.D.His car was stuck by a vehicle from behind.27.

Now, it’s time for us to express our nostalgia for this great writer.On Dec 14, 2017, the famous Chinese poet Y u Guangzhong passed away in Taiwan.Born in 1928 in Nanjing, Jiangsu, Yu studied in Sichuan when he was young. At that time, he had showed great interest in Chinese poems and spent a lot of his free time trying writing poems himself. Then he managed to publish his first poem at the age of 20. A year later, Yu and his family moved to Taiwan. He lived and worked there until his death.Nostalgia (《乡愁》) is Yu’s masterpiece in which he expresses his homesickness for the Chinese mainland when he was in Taiwan.Published in 1971, the poem remains highly popular among Chinese speakers worldwide. Even those who know little about literature (文学) are familiar with lines from the poem. The poem is included in Chinese high school textbooks.Besides his achievements in poetry, Yu was also a successful essay writer, critic and translator.He once translated English poet Siegfried Sassoon’s poem In Me, Past, Present, Future Meet into Chinese. It is regarded as an accurate and powerful translation, in which the most famous line is “心有猛虎，细嗅蔷薇” for “In me the tiger sniffs the rose”.Yu spent his whole life writing. “The reason why I stick to writing till today comes down to my passion for the Chinese language,” he once said in a 2015 interview. He then added that this passion was strengthened by his love for his mother and his motherland.Now, let’s appreciate the poem Nostalgia.31. What is Y u Guangzhong?A. A poet, reporter and critic.B.

When I grew up, Nostalgia was a narrow boat ticket, Me on this side, Bride on the other side. But later on, Nostalgia was a low grave, Me on the outside, Mother on the inside. And at present, Nostalgia becomes a shallow strait, Me on this side, Mainland on the other side.Imagine you walk into a store. Strangely enough, you see nostaff (店员) inside. You pick up things and prepare to wait in line andpay. But even more oddly, there is no cashier at all. So what hashappened to this store?Well, you may have entered Tao Café, a cashless store created by Chinese e-commerce giant Alibaba. In July, the public got to see the store for the first time at Alibaba’s Taobao Maker Festival in Hangzhou.The 200-square-meter store sells drinks, fast food and snacks. It can hold up to 50 shoppers at a time. To enter and shop, people only need a smartphone with a Taobao app and an Alipay account (账户).By scanning their Taobao QR code (二维码), shoppers are followed with cameras for facial recognition. The store has also digitalized (数字化) all goods and their placement on the shelves. So when shoppers pick up goods, the system will be able to “watch” and “remember” their selection.When shoppers are ready to leave, they don’t wait in line to pay. Instead, they go through two checkout doors. Then the bills will be paid with a Taobao account connected to Alipay.According to Alibaba, the checkout machines can recognize goods even when shoppers put them in pockets or bags. So it is almost impossible to steal things from the store.Tao Caféis not the only cashless store in China. A 24-hour convenience store with no staff called BingoBox opened in Shanghai in June. To enter the store, shoppers scan a QR code on WeChat or Alipay. But unlike the Tao Café, they have to scan another QR code to leave the BingoBox.36.
