He seemed most unfriendly and not at all concerned about my intended purchase. I bought nothing, and marched angrily out of the store. My hostility toward that clerk increased with each step.On the outside, standing by the road, was a dark-skinned young man in his early twenties. His expressive brown eyes met and held mine, and in the next instant a beautiful, dazzling smile covered his face. I gave way immediately. The magnetic power of that smile dissolved all bitterness within me, and I found the muscles in my own face happily responding.“Beautiful day, isn‟t it?” I remarked in passing. Then, I turned back. “I really owe you a debt of gratitude,” I said softly. His smile deepene d, but he made no attempt to answer. A Mexican woman and two men were standing nearby. The woman stepped forward and eyed me inquiringly. “Sir, but he doesn‟t speak English,” she volunteered. “You want I should tell him something?”At that moment I felt t ransformed. The young man‟s smile had made a big person of me.“Yes,” my reply was enthusiastic and sincere, “tell him I said …Thank you!‟ ”“Thank you?” The woman seeded slightly puzzled. I gave her arm a friendly pat as I turned to leave. “Just tell him that,” I insisted. “He will understand; I am sure!”Oh, what a smile can do!

Many artists late in the last century were in search of a means to express their individuality. Modern dance was one of the ways some of these people sought to free their creative spirit. At the beginning there was no exacting technique, no foundation from which to build. In later years, trial, error and genius founded the techniques and the principles of the movement. Eventually, innovators (改革者) even drew from what they considered the dread ballet, but first they had to get rid of all that was academicso that the new could be discovered. The beginnings of modern dance were happening before Isadora Duncan, but she was the first person to bring the new dance to general audiences and see it accepted and acclaimed (称赞).Her search for a natural movement form sent her to nature. She believed movement should be as natural as the swaying of the trees and the rolling waves of the sea, and should be in harmony with the movements of the Earth. Her great contributions are in three areas.First, she began the expansion of the kinds of movement that could be used in dance. Before Duncan danced, ballet was the only type of dance performed in concert. In the ballet the feet and legs were emphasized, with virtuosity (高超技巧) shown by complex, codified positions and movements. Duncan performed dance by using her body in the freest possible way. Her dance stemmed from her soul and spirit. She was one of the pioneers who broke tradition so others might be able to develop the art.Her second contribution lies in dance costume. She rejected ballet shoes and stiff costumes. These were replaced with flowing Grecian (希腊式的) tunes, bare feet, and unbound hair. She believed in the natural body being allowed to move freely, and her dress displayed this ideal.Her third contribution was in the use of music. In her performances she used the symphonies of great masters including Beethoven and Wagner, which was not the usual custom.She was as exciting and eccentric (怪异) in her personal life as in her dance.61.According to the passage, what did nature represent to Isadora Duncan?A.Something to conquer. B.A model for movement.C.A place to find peace. D.A symbol of disorder.62.Compared to those of the balle t, Isadora Duncan‟s costumes were less _________.A.costly B.colorful C.graceful D.restrictive63.Which of the following is not mentioned as an area of dance that Duncan worked to change?A. The stage set.B. The music.C. Costumes.D. Movements.64. We can infer from the passage that the author _________.A. appreciates modern dance very muchB. dislikes Isadora Duncan‟s danceC. thinks highly of individualityD. knows a lot about modern arts65. Which of the following would be the best title for the passage?A.Artists of the Last Century B.Evolution of Dance in the 20th Century C.Natural Movement in Dance D.A Pioneer in Modern DanceCThree Central Texas men were honored with the Texas Department of Public Safety's Director's Award in a Tuesday morning ceremony for their heroism in saving the victims of a fiery two car accident.The accident occurred on March 25 when a vehicle lost control while traveling on a rain-soaked State Highway 6 near Baylor Camp Road.

I hope someone would do the same for me."Everyone at the accident made it out alive, with the victims suffering from nonlife-threatening injuries. Mallory Smith broke both femurs, and Megan had neck and back injuries. Bowbin is still recovering from a broken pelvis, ankle and foot.The rescuers also were taken to the hospital and treated for cuts and smoke breathing, Bonge said.In addition, Bozeman not to meet accident victim Anthony Rus so in the hospital after the accident, where Russo presented him with a glass frame inscribed with" Thank you," Bozeman said.

Complete the diagram / Fill in the numbered blanks by using the information for the passage.Write NO MORE THAN 3 WORDS for each answerWhat is critical thinking? Critical thinking is defined as thinking logically and developing an ability to ask questions or ask for evidence for a particular subject. Developing critical thinking skills in a child throughthe right critical thinking exercises is very important.Critical thinking develops the ability of subjective analysis of a particular fact. Critical thinking is to evaluate the reason behind a particular fact. All possible viewpoints must be thought about before analyzing a fact, and this develops problem-solving skills in a child.Here are some exercises you can use to encourage your child to think critically.Quiz your child. Ask your child about daily activities that he does in the school. Quiz him about certain things that do not have a single correct answer. This will increase his ability to think about the things he‟s just learned in class. Keep on telling your child simple information about nature, like the seasons when flowers bloom. You can either ask him questions or just explain to him in a casual way.Recognize and classify. For critical thinking, your child must learn to recognize important information that is closely connected with the subject. Classification of things on a certain firm and logical basis of information is included in the critical thinking ability. Colorful toys or images can be included in teaching critical thinking. Ask your child to identify the names of the flowers, fruits and animals from a colorful chart.Critical thinking exercises are not intended to make your child intelligent, but it is about making him successful in his decision-making ability and helping him make a successful career. Although thinking habits are cultivated(培养) in early childhood through exercises, they are indeed helpful for a lifetime.Section B (10 points)Directions: Read the following passage. Answer the questions according to the information given in the passage and required words limit. Write your answers on your answer sheet.In the animal kingdom, weakness can bring about aggression in other animal. This sometimes happens with humans also. But I have found that my weakness brings out the kindness in people. I see it every day when people hold doors for me, pour cream into my coffee, or help me to put on my coat. And I have discoveredthat it makes them happy.From my wheelchair experience, I see the best in people, bur sometimes I feel sad because those who appear independent miss the kindness I s ee daily. They don‟t get to see this soft side of others often, we try every way possible to avoid showing our weakness, which includes a lot of pretending. But only when we stop pretending we‟re brave or strong do we allow people to show the kindness that‟s in them.Last month, when I was driving home on a busy highway, I began to feel unwell and drove more slowly than usual. People behind me began to get impatient and angry, with some speeding up alongside me, horning (按喇叭) or even shouting at me. At the moment I decided to do something I had never done in twenty fore years of driving. I put on the car flashlights and drove on at a really low speed.No more angry shouts and no more horns! When I put on my flashlights, I was saying to other drivers, “I have a problem here. I am weak and doing the best I can.” And everyone understood. Several times, I saw drivers who wanted to pass. They couldn‟t get around me because of the stream of passing traffic. But instead of getting impatient and angry, they waited, knowing the driver in front of them was in some way weak.Sometimes situations call for us to act strong and brave even when we don‟t feel that way. But those are and far between. More often, it would be better if we don‟t pretend we feel strong when we fee l weak or pretend that we are brave when we are scared.81.

Out of the engineering that produced rocket motor, space suits, and other necessities of space flight came by products that no one had anticipated. Equipment and 22 designed for use in medicine, industry, and the home, these valuable by products of space research, called spin offs, have improved the quality of life on earth in many ways.Some of the best-known examples of spin-offs from space research are found in hospitals and doctors' offices. One such example is the sight switch, which was originally developed to allow astronauts to control their spacecraft without using their hands. It is now used by 23 people to operate devices using eye movements.Doctors have also benefited from the technology required to make electronic instruments small enough and durable enough for trips into space. From this technology have come hearing aids the size of an aspirin and television cameras small enough to be 24 to a surgeon's head to give medical students a close-up view of an operation.Biotelemetry, which was developed to 25 the physical signs of astronauts by checking their temperature, brain-wave activity, breathing rate, and heartbeat, offers doctors a new means of monitoring hospital patients. Biosensors attached to the body send data by wire or radio. This information is displayed on 26 for doctors to analyze.One of the most valuable 27 of aerospace technology to industry is a management technique called the systems approach. With the aid of computers, this technique brings together all the elements of a complex project, including people, money, and materials, to assure that everything is completed at the optimum time. It has been applied to a variety of situations 28 to space exploration. Among them are cancer research, hospital design, city planning, crime detection, pollution control, building construction, and transportation.The experience gained from developing NASA spacesuits was applied to the process of designing clothing for use in other 29 . Firefighters now have lighter and special fire blocking materials that are more 30 to cracking and burning. Spacers used for cushioning in moon boots were adapted for use in athletic shoes that are designed to reduce fatigue and injury.(B)If your parents take out a loan, remind them to make the payments on time. Otherwise it will become a(n) 31 record in their personal credit reports, which are playing a(n) 32 big role in people's daily lives. A story carried by Chongqing Morning Post in June, 33 this trend.According to the report, a Chongqing student borrowed money from the bank to 34 his university studies. After he graduated in 2005, he went to work in Shenzhen. Later, he wanted to buy a house using loans. But several banks turned down his loan 35 . The reason was that he had not paid back 1,500 yuan he borrowed from a bank when he was at university.A personal credit rating is becoming a(n) 36 “pass” in everyday life, as China establishes a nationwide credit database. Personal credit systems go back 150 years. In developed countries, enterprises and banks use them to decide whether or not to loan money or do other business with a person.A credit report 37 the credit worthiness of an individual, a company, or even a country. It is a(n)38 made by credit bureaus of a borrower's overall credit history and his or her ability to repay debt. A poor credit rating means a high risk of defaulting on a loan, and thus leads to the 39 of a loan by the lender.Today in China, credit history in banks is the major 40 of a credit report. But in the future, reports will include information about the payment of telephone bills, water use fees, electricity and natural gas bills, and taxes, according to officials of the People's Bank of China, the central bank.The secrets of long lifeA long healthy life is no accident. It begins with good genes, but it also depends on good ___41___. So what’s the formula for success? In a recent study, scientists have focused on groups living in several refions where exceptional longevity is the norm: Sardinia, Italy, Loma Linda, California, and the islands of Okinawa, Japan.SardiniansWhy do they live so long? __42__ is part of the answer. By 11 a.m. Tonino has already milked four cows, chopped wood and walked four miles with his sheep. Now, taking the day’s first break, he gathers his grown children, grandson, around the kitchen table. Giovanna, his wife, unties a handkerchief containing a paper-thin flatbread called carta da musica, pours some red wine, and cut slices of homemade cheese.These Sardinians also benefit from their __43__ history. According to Paolo Francalacci of the University of Sassari, 80 percent of them are __44__the first Sardinians, who arrived in the area 11,000 years ago. Genetic traits made stronger over generations may favor longevity. __45__, too, is a factor.The Sardinians diet is loaded with fruits and vegetables, milk and milk products, fish and wine. Most of these items are homegrown.AdventistsThe study found that the Ad ventists’ habit of consuming beans, soy milk, tomatoes, and other fruits __46__their risk of developing certain cancers. It also suggested that eating whole wheat bread, drinking five glasses of water a day, and, most __47__, consuming four servings of nuts a week reduced their risk of heart disease. And it found that not eating red meat had been helpful in avoiding both cancer and heart disease.OkinawansThe first thing you notice about Ushi Okushima is her __48__. It fills the room with pure joy. This rainy afternoon she sits comfortably wrapped in a blue kimono. Her thick hair is combed back from her suntanned face, revealing alert green, eyes. Not long ago, she started wearing perfume. When asked about the perfume, she __49__that she has a new boyfriend.__50__behavior for a young woman, perhaps, but Ushi is 103.With an average life expectancy of 78 years for men and 86 years for women, Okinawans are among the world’s longest lived people. This is undoubtedly due in part to Okinawans warm and __51__ climate and scenic beauty. Senior citizens living in these islands tend to enjoy years __52__disabilities. Okinawans have very low rates of cancer and heart disease compared to American seniors.A lean diet of food grown on the island and a philosophy of __53__--- may also be a factor. “eat until your stomach is80 percent full.” may also be factors. Ironically, this healthy way of eating was born of __54__.Ushi Okushima grew up barefoot and poor, her family grew sweet potatoes, which formed the core of every meal. During World War II, when the men of the island joined the army, Ushi and her friend Setsuko fled to the center of the island with their children. “We __55__ terrible hunger,” Setsuko re calls.(B)In today's American society, background checks have become a routine part of hiring process. Employers use them to assess ___56____ workers, judging whether they are qualified for the posts. Through background checks, employers can also make sure that the information applicants provide is ____57___, which suggests the applicants' moral quality.Then what do background checks investigate? Many ____58___ a review of the employee's___59____ history trying to confirm whether the employee has ever been fired or forced to resign. Employers also pay attention to the length of unemployment, afraid that long-time absence from___60____ may bring negative influence to the employee's performance. Sometimes, an applicant's residential history is also an issue. Jobs with state or local governments often require that the employee live in certain areas, ___61____the chances for them to have contact with ill-intentioned people. Besides, living near the work place is always ___62____as it saves time and fares on transportation. Another item which can't be ____63___ is the applicant's criminal history --- whether he has ever been arrested or put into prison. Although __64__ offences like traffic ticketing or queue jumping are usually pardoned, breaking a criminal law is rarely spared and, in most cases, is sure to result in the____65___ of the employment. Then comes the social history. A background check that involves the applicant's social history is generally needed for government posts or employment in finance and law industries that require greater self-dicipline. A small mistake in these ____66___ may result in huge loss. The investigation usually checks drug use, family relationships and social contacts, in order to avoid ___67____someone unsuitable for the posts. Background investigators who look into social history may interview neighbors and professional references recognized by the applicant.Finally in the field of education background, an application form may ask for copies of licenses or university diplomas to show the applicant's __68__ performances. In many instances, an education background check is so particular about ____69___ that investigators even confirm the date on which the employee earned his degree to determine if it ___70____ the information the employee provided on his application.56.

Many of these behaviors are “things you would never think of looking at if you were going to study the genetics of behavior,” says psychologist Thomas J. Bouchard, Jr. , director of the Minnesota Center for Twin and Adoption Research at the University of Minnesota.Bouchard reports that so far, exhaustive psychological tests and questionnaires have been completed with approximately 50 pairs of identical twins reared apart, 25pairs of fraternal twins reared apart and comparison groups of twins reared together. “We were amazed at the similarity in posture and expressive style,” says Bouchard. “It’s probably the feature of the st udy that’s grabbed us the most.” Twins tend to have similar mannerisms, gestures, speed and tempo in talking, habits and jokes. Many of the twins dressed in similar fashion--one male pair who had never previously met arrived in England sporting identical beards, haircuts, glasses and shirts.The most striking example of common psychopathology(精神病理学),however, came from a pair of twinsraised apart. One had been reared by his own(poor) family the other had been adopted into a “good solid upper-middle-class f amily.”Both are now considered to be antisocial personalities, suffering from lack of impulse control, and both have criminal histories. Although the twins share, on average, 50 percent ot their genes, Bouchard suggests that the overlap is probably considerably more with this pair.Personality similarities between the identical twins raised apart are almost the same as they are with identical twins raised together, according to the results of a test developed by University of Minnesota psychologist Auke Tellegen. His personality questionnaire contains scales such as “social closeness,””harm avoidance”and”well-being.”The researchers were especially surprised to find that”traditionalism”--a trait implying conservatism and respect for authority--can be inherited. In fact, says Bouchard, his and other studies have found about 11 personality traits that appear to have significant genetic input.Overall, the emerging findings of the Minnesota study constitute a powerful disproof of those who maintain that environmental influences are the primary shaping forces of personality. The textbooks are going to have to be rewritten, Bouchard predicts.80.Why does Bouchard say these behaviors are “things you would never think of looking at if you were going to study the gene tics of behavior?”A. These behaviors seemed too unimportant for scientists to observe.B. These behaviors seemed too intimate to allow scientists to observe them.C. Psychologists assumed these external characteristics could not be biologically based.D. Psychologists assumed the causes of these behaviors were too complicated for current methods of observations.81.The word “identical”(in para.3) most probably means________.A. fashionableB. alikeC. complexD. identified82.According to the passage, Auke Tellegen agrees that _______________.A.some textbooks on genes and behavior will be rewritten quite soon.B.people’s behaviors and personalities depend at large on their genesC.his personality questionnaire can indi cate people’s 11 personality traitsD.the environmental influences have great effect on people’s personalities81.What does the passage mainly talk about?A.Twins generally share the same hobbies and gestures if they are raised apart.B.Genes have a greater influence on human behavior than is commonly thought.C.People from upper-middle-class family are the same as those from poor family.D.Twins tend to dress in similar fashion even when brought up in different families.Section CDirections: Complete the following passage by using the sentences given below. Each sentence can be used onlySports stars have a natural advantageScientists have identified the clear biological advantages that give the world’s sp orting champions a head start in life before they have even begun their rigorous training programmes.The coach for the French Olympic team says:” we measure special attributes between the ages of 16 and 18. But only one in 10,000 people has the physical aspects needed to compete at the very top level in sporting events. _82____ . We take into account the height, strength and endurance of a person. We also regard mental application as important, how an individual reacts when the competition gets really tough.”Scientists say that medical evidence is playing an increasingly important role in the selection of athletes. A study of the 40-year dominance of Kenyan runners in long distance athletic events has revealed that 45 percent of them come from the Nandi tribe. What is remarkable is that this tribe makes up only 3 percent of the Kenyan population.__83_____. Athletic organizations consider these genetic factors a good indicator when selecting sthletes to produce superior running performances.__84____. For example, David Beckham’s bandy legs have been partly credited with helping to put a spin on the football when he takes a free kick for England. Other biological characteristics are more measurable. The Americantennis player, Andy Roddick, has the fastest serve in the game. He is able to arch his back so much that it increases the rotation of his arm to 130 degrees. This is 44 percent better than the average professional player and this allows them to drive the ball over the net at 240 kilometers per hour. Michael Phelps, the 14-times Olympic swimming champion has over-sized feet which act like flippers to propel him through the water.__85_____. Mia Hamm, probably the best all-round woman footballer in the world, produces less than one liter of sweat an hour when doing vigorous exercise, which is half the human average. When it comes to speed, take the example of woman racing driver, Liz Halliday. A normal person would take 300 milliseconds to make a reactive decision. She can do it in 260 milliseconds. It may not sound much quicker but at top race speeds, this makes a difference of three car lengths.The difference between success and failure is very small and all these biological factors are crucial in finding future champions.Hitting the right buttonIt has been found that in some countries,achievement in some subjects at school is not always good for boys as it is girls.It is possible that using computers may be a way to solve this problem.Many boys seem to have a natural liking for computers,but it can often be hard to leave the screen and concentrate on the work the teacher wants them to do.As computers are becoming more and more important in the world of education today,it is natural to assume that computers can help greatly with boys who do not do too well at school and need to raise their general educational standards.Many boys appear to be more confident than girls in using it.and they need to use computers more frequently ,especially at home.Researchers at universities now think that it could be a really good way of re-engaging under-achieving boys in the learning process,and teachers have indicated that it does work.They have found that,although lots of boys do not seem to like writing in the classroom,when they use a computer they are more wiling to compose longer pieces of writing and use different styles.The issue of unintelligible handwriting is no longer a problem,either,as the neatness and presentation standards rise when boys use a computer to print out their work.Many boys welcome the “hands on” approach of computer,However,researchers and teachers need to be careful that boys don’t just “cut and paste”things that they have found on the internet, but haven’t read,and hand it in as a completed assignment.Some boys o verestimate how good they are and think they can do things without any effort.They need to develop proper research skills and make their written work more structured.Other boys take short cuts,or look at internet sites they haven’t been asked to look at.They may not plan or think carefully about their work,or they may try to finish their work quickly.This tendency is not going to be completely cured by using computers.One way to get boys to concentrate properly on the work they have been asked to do may be to encourage them to use their computers at home.However,they also need to be set tasks that are interesting and relevant to them.As in all things,the interaction between the pupil,the teacher and the computer is crucial.Translation:1.你知道如何给别人留下美好的印象吗?(leave)2.知道那时我才意识到我也许是最后知道这件事的人。

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.About 100 years ago, one of the founders of modern linguistics, Ferdinand de Saussure, wrote that the relationship 1.the sounds we make and the concepts they express are arbitrary(任意的,随意的). Many have long agreed. But now the inherent(内在的) randomness of human language 2.(challenge) by a large new study published in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 3.analyzed 100 basic words in 3,700 languages around the world. In short: Certain words tend to contain or omit certain sounds in a significant number of these languages, and the consistency is “stronger than we’d expect by chance.” The team of physicists, linguists, an d computer scientists from the US, Argentina and Europe took a “big data approach” to sixty two percent of the world’s languages. And one of 4.tells the Washington Post.Among their many findings is 5.the word for nose contains the sound “n” in more tha n 1,400 languages, 6.(range) from “nev” in Icelandic and “hana” in Japanese to “kon” in Sar and “naris” in Spanish. Ditto(同上,同前) the sound “s” in sand. The researchers don’t yet know why, although they’ve ruled out the idea of there 7.(be) one original la nguage. It’s not the first study 8.(suggest) a biological basis for the sounds we appoint to objects ---- something 9.(call) the “bouba/kiki” effect dates back to 1929, suggesting that most humans think the fake word “bouba” sounds like a rounded shape while the fake word “kiki” sounds spiky(带尖刺的).A separate researcher tells the Telegraph that some words may date back from 10.babies can first say, such as “mama”, but says the study “looked at too few words to make any firm conclusions.”二、选用适当的单词或短语补全短文Directions: Fill in each blank with a proper word chosen from the box. Each word can be used only once. Note that there is one word more than you need.To many of us, the bilateral symmetry(左右对称)that characterizes the human face and the animal kingdom may be one of the first impressions we get of the world. If you reflect the left half of the face or body in a mirror, you obtain something that closely 11.the right half. Bilateral symmetry is so common that it could 12.be due to chance. If you think of the human body as a collection of some ten thousand trillion molecules, then there are countless ways to combine them into non-symmetrical shapes than into symmetrical ones. Why is it, then, that bilateral symmetry is so common? Given that all life on Earth slowly 13.through natural selection, the fact that we and many animals possess left-right symmetry, not, say, up-down or front-back symmetry, must have somehow 14.certain advantages. But how?We can understand at least some parts of this natural “engineering” 15.by considering some simple physical principles. First, on the surface of the Earth, the Earth’s gravity introduces a 16.difference between up and down. Animals had to be able to remain stable and to cope with their weight under Earth’s perpetual downward pull. The ability to move further enhanced the difference between top and bottom. On one hand, birds had to handle the aerodynamics of flying, and on the other, be able to handle landing. Land animals had to develop some “mechanical” appendages (in other words, legs) to allow them to 17.themselves efficiently.Animal locomotion was probably also 18.for the front-back asymmetry. Whether it was a bird, or a fish, having the sensory organs and the mouth in the front could mean the difference between finding lunch or missing it. The digestive and reproductive systems were pushed to the rear. Having eyes, ears, and noses in the front was also 19.for the avoidance of predators, and for the ability to explore an area before actually entering it. Life 20.that are fixed in one place or that move very slowly, such as trees or jellyfish, tend to have a different kind of symmetry, similar to that of a cone(球果) — they produce similar reflections in any mirror passing through their central axis.三、完形填空Like it or hate it, when Kim Kardashian wears something, people take notice. With the reality TV star wearing secondhand Azzedine Alaïa to Paris fashion week, secondhand JeanPaul Gaultier to a party and a secondhand 1990s Thierry Mugler gown to an award ceremony, it 21 change is happening. Who would have thought that Kardashian – a woman worth $350m (£270m)– would be making a case for sustainable fashion?As consumers become increasingly aware of the 22 impact of fashion, they are looking for a more sustainable way to shop. Could 23 secondhand be the answer? Vintage(经典复古风格), it seems, is increasingly 24 . High-end boutique Browns has also just launched the label One Vintage, which uses antique textiles to create new clothes. Octavia Bradford, the womenswear buyer for Browns, says: “25 is the loudest conversation in fashion right now.”A study shows that, last year, 64% of women were willing to buy pre-owned pieces compared with 45% in 2016 – and 26 , by 2028 13% of the clothes in women’s wardrobes will be secondhand. Fashion circularity, a new term referring to the recycled life of clothes, is 27 to reach $51bn in five years, up from the current $24bn, according to ThredUp’s annual resale report.Stella McClure, the founder of the online shop The Stellar Boutique, has noticed a28 . When she opened 20 years ago “there was still a 29 attached. But now (thankfully) The Stellar Boutique is not just acceptable –it’s cool and has completely 30 the fashion trends,” she says.Aside from an increased 31 of sustainability, vintage fashion fits neatly into the wider mood of the Instagram age, where authenticity and originality – not being seen in the same outfit as anyone else – are 32 . What better ways to stand out than to wear clothes few others are likely to own?Not 33 to sit back and watch others profit from their vintage items, some luxury labels are relaunching decades-old designs from their own archives. Last year, 34 , Dior brought back its saddle bag because of the attention it was getting in the vintage fashion market. However, for some, buying vintage will never feel quite right. “It’s really not my bag,” says Bates.There are obvious 35 –sizing isn’t uniform, and, she says: “You have to be so careful to look for holes and rips.”21.A.suggests B.maintains C.calculates D.advocates 22.A.cultural B.historical C.environmental D.emotional 23.A.distributing B.buying C.controlling D.decreasing24.A.in fashion B.in effect C.out of date D.under control 25.A.Originality B.Technology C.Profit D.Sustainability 26.A.legally B.appropriately C.likely D.luckily 27.A.required B.projected C.guaranteed D.warned 28.A.symptom B.field C.tradition D.shift 29.A.right B.label C.shame D.price 30.A.broken B.defined C.captured D.challenged 31.A.potential B.awareness C.lack D.power 32.A.reversed B.questioned C.ensured D.valued 33.A.considerate B.content C.stressful D.adventurous 34.A.for instance B.as a result C.by contrast D.in addition 35.A.expectations B.policies C.traps D.reminders四、阅读选择As Artificial Intelligence (AI) becomes increasingly sophisticated, there are growing concerns that robots could become a threat. This danger can be avoided, according to computer science professor Stuart Russell, if we figure out how to turn human values into a programmable code.Russell argues that as robots take on more complicated tasks, it's necessary to translate our morals into AI language.For example, if a robot does chores around the house, you wouldn't want it to put the pet cat in the oven to make dinner for the hungry children. “You would want that robot preloaded with a good set of values,” said Russell.Some robots are already programmed with basic human values. For example, mobile robots have been programmed to keep a comfortable distance from humans. Obviously there are cultural differences, but if you were talking to another person and they came up close in your personal space, you wouldn't think that's the kind of thing a properly brought-up person would do.It will be possible to create more sophisticated moral machines, if only we can find a way to set out human values as clear rules.Robots could also learn values from drawing patterns from large sets of data on human behavior. They are dangerous only if programmers are careless.The biggest concern with robots going against human values is that human beings fail to do sufficient testing and they've produced a system that will break some kind of taboo(禁忌).One simple check would be to program a robot to check the correct course of action with a human when presented with an unusual situation.If the robot is unsure whether an animal is suitable for the microwave, it has the opportunity to stop, send out beeps(嘟嘟声), and ask for directions from a human. If we humans aren't quite sure about a decision, we go and ask somebody else.The most difficult step in programming values will be deciding exactly what we believe in moral, and how to create a set of ethical rules. But if we come up with an answer, robots could be good for humanity.36.What does the author say about the threat of robots?A.It may constitute a challenge to computer programmers.B.It accompanies all machinery involving high technology.C.It can be avoided if human values are translated into their language.D.It has become an inevitable peril as technology gets more sophisticated.37.What would we think of a person who invades our personal space according to the author? A.They are aggressive. B.They are outgoing.C.They are ignorant. D.They are ill-bred.38.How do robots learn human values?A.By interacting with humans in everyday life situations.B.By following the daily routines of civilized human beings.C.By picking up patterns from massive data on human behavior.D.By imitating the behavior of property brought-up human beings.39.What will a well-programmed robot do when facing an unusual situation?A.Keep a distance from possible dangers. B.Stop to seek advice from a human being. C.Trigger its built-in alarm system at once. D.Do sufficient testing before taking action.Recalculating the global use of phosphorus(磷), an important fertilizer element of modern agriculture, a team of researchers warns that the world's stocks may soon be in short supply and that overuse in the industrialized world has become a leading cause of the pollution of lakes, rivers and streams.Writing in the Feb. 14 edition of the journal Environmental Research Letters, StephenCarpenter of the University of WisconsinMadison and Elena Bennett of McGill University report that the human use of phosphorus, primarily in the industrialized world, is causing the widespread eutrophication of fresh surface water. What's more, the minable global stocks of phosphorus are concentrated in just a few countries and are in decline, posing the risk of global shortages within the next 20 years."There is a finite amount of phosphorus in the world," says Carpenter, one of the world's leading authorities on lakes and streams. "This is a material that's becoming rarer and we need to use it more efficiently."Phosphorus is an essential element for life. Living organisms, including humans, have small amounts and the element is crucial for driving the energetic processes of cells. In agriculture, phosphorus mined from ancient marine deposits is widely used to boost crop yields. The element also has other industrial uses.But excess phosphorus from fertilizer that washes from farm fields and suburban lawns into lakes and streams is the primary cause of the algae blooms that destroy freshwater ecosystems out off kilter and degrade water quality. Phosphorus pollution poses a risk to fish and other water life as well as to the animals and humans who depend on clean fresh water. In some instances, excess phosphorus sparks blooms of toxic algae, which pose a direct threat to human and animal life."If you have too much phosphorus, you get eutrophication," explains Carpenter of the cycle of excessive plant and algae growth that significantly degrades bodies of fresh water. "Phosphorus stimulates the growth of algae and weeds near shore and some of the algae can contain cyanobacteria(蓝菌), which are toxic. You lose fish. You lose water quality for drinking."The fertilizer fueled algae blooms themselves amplify the problem as the algae die and release accumulated phosphorus back into the water.Complicating the problem, says Carpenter, is the fact that excess phosphorus in the environment is a problem primarily in the industrialized world, mainly Europe, North America and parts of Asia. In other parts of the world, notably Africa and Australia, soils are phosphorus poor, creating a stark imbalance. Ironically, soils in places like North America, where fertilizers with phosphorus are most commonly applied, are already loaded with the element.Bennett and Carpenter argue that agriculture practices to better conserve phosphate within agricultural ecosystems are necessary to avoid the widespread pollution of surface waters.Phosphorus from parts of the world where the element is abundant, they say, can be moved to phosphorus deficient regions of the world by extracting phosphorus from manure, for example, using manure digesters.40.The word “eutrophication” (Line 4, Para.2) most probably means __________ . A.pollution B.excess of nutrientsC.increase of algae D.growth of bacteria41.Which of the following is not correct about the use of phosphorous?A.It is used in industry.B.It is used to increase crop yields.C.It is used to drive the energetic processes of cells.D.It is used only in small amounts in living organism42.According to the last paragraph, we learn that ________ .A.Environmental problems exist only in the industrialized countries.B.Agriculture practices should conserve phosphate within agricultural ecosystems. C.Phosphorus can be created by using manure digesters.D.Soils are not short of phosphorus in Africa and Australia.Recently, a coalition of business and advocacy groups from around Washington gathered to kick off a campaign to enact a carbon pricing program in the capital. Known as the Climate and Community Reinvestment Act of D.C., the plan would place a new tax on all fossil fuels bought or sold, with the hope of ultimately discouraging the use of these polluting energy sources.The big-picture goal of this campaign is admirable: to address the ever-deepening crisis of humanity-driven climate chaos by dissuading the continued use of coal, oil and gas, the filthy substances rapidly warming our planet. But unfortunately, the approach — one based in a world of financial markets, trading schemes and enticing new public revenue streams — is deeply and inherently flawed. Simply put, carbon pricing is a false solution to climate change and a distraction from real, effective climate solutions we must urgently pursue.To date, there is scant(不足的) evidence to indicate that carbon taxes lower greenhouse gas emissions. In fact, the opposite is true. Recently Food & Water Watch reviewed the British Columbia carbon tax program, often cited by advocates as an example of success. From 2009 (the first full year of the tax) to 2014, emissions from taxed sources grew by 4.3 percent. And inthe seven years after the carbon tax took effect, total gasoline sales increased by 7.37 percent.Supporters of such plans like to focus on a deceivingly simple notion that increasing the price of a consumer good will automatically reduce its use. But this just isn’t the case when it comes to the purchase of necessities. People must heat their homes in winter, and they must commute to work, regardless of the cost.Those backing the D.C.carbon pricing plan like to note that revenue from the new tax would go toward investment in clean energy sources. But only 20 percent of the generated funds would be allocated in this manner. The rest would be divvied(分摊) up in tax breaks for businesses and rebates(回扣) for consumers, another factor undercutting the notion that increased costs up front would change consumer behavior in the long run.Meanwhile, fossil fuel giants such as ExxonMobil are increasingly coming out in support of carbon pricing. This should be cause for alarm for anyone concerned with stamping out the use of the dirty energy sources these corporations profit from. Exxon knows that carbon taxes will do little to change the business-as-usual dependence on oil and gas that it relies on to continue operating and enriching shareholders. Furthermore, corporations such as Exxon rightly view carbon pricing schemes as a means of diverting energy and interest from tougher regulations that might actually encroach on(侵犯) their business plans and bottom lines.Despite what many well-intentioned activists and community leaders want to believe, there is no convenient, market-friendly solution to our dire climate condition. There is only the hard truth that we must tackle the problem at its source: We must stop using fossil fuels, and soon. The latest science indicates that in order to avoid the worst effects of deepening climate chaos, society must transition completely to clean, renewable energy by 2035.43.Food &Water Watch found that _______ .A.carbon taxes could limit greenhouse gas emissionsB.taxing carbon emissions did not reduce pollutionC.carbon emissions grew at a lower rate than gasoline salesD.British Columbia carbon tax program achieved lasting effect44.Which of the following is true, according to Paragraphs 4 and 5?A.Consumers will use less of a good when its price increases.B.Carbon taxes will benefit the development of clean energy.C.Increased cost will do little to change the use of necessities.D.The dependence on fossil fuels will decrease automatically.45.Fossil fuel giants _________.A.are expressing dissatisfaction with carbon pricing schemesB.are reducing their dependence on dirty energy sourcesC.view clean renewable energy as their future source of profitsD.see carbon pricing as distraction from tough rules against them46.The most suitable title for this text would be __________.A.The Carbon Tax Fallacy(谬论) B.The Climate Change MythC.The Call for Clean Energy D.The Causes of Climate Chaos五、六选四Directions: Read the following passage. Fill in each blank with a proper sentence given in the box. Each sentence can be used only once. Note that there are two more sentences than you need.There’s no denying crows are smart. They can remember where food has been hi dden, recognize faces and craft tools. And, according to a new paper in Scientific Reports, some crows can even make those tools from memory. This skill may point to these clever corvids having a sort of culture of their own.Researchers, led by Sarah Jelbert at the University of Cambridge, worked specifically with New Caledonian crows. 47.But experts haven’t been able to make sure where the crows pick up their skills. A bird in one area can construct the same tool as another bird miles away —but there’s no evidence bird one watched bird two build the gadget in order to copy it. And New Caledonian crows don’t really have a language, either.48.Jelbert and her team had a hunch(预感) that it was because the birds were building based on the memory of tools the y’d seen.To test this, the group trained eight crows to place pieces of paper into a pseudo-vending machine (really just a wooden box) to get a treat. 49.Once they learned which sizes were rewarded, Jelbert and her team then gave the feathered participants large cards; the birds could fashion these into the coin sizes they’d picked up on earlier. Importantly, the crows didn’t get any sort of template(模板) when they were working with the big cards. And the birds snipped them into pieces that were similar in size to the coins they’d learned would get them treats.Given the lack of a template to copy, it seems the crows were able to construct mental images of the coins and use it to replicate a tool. 50.These birds can see something and notjust build it from memory, but potentially make improvements in their designs. “Most importantly,” the authors say in the study, “an improvement made by a crow during its lifetime could become part of the template learnt by subsequent generations, leading to an increase in tool complexity over time.” And this progression is a key component of cultural progression.Jelbert and her team recognize there’s still work to be done to see if their hypothesis is solid, like testing how long the crows can remember their mental images of the tools.A.So if they’re not building by imitation or carrying out instructions, how is this knowledge getting passed around?B.Crafting tool is a kind of culture, which can be passed down from generation to generation by crows.C.However, the crows o nly got treats when they popped in a paper “coin” of a certain size. D.These birds, native to the islands of New Caledonia east of Australia, are known for their ability to craft tools.E.Seeing this in action is important because it supports the idea that New Caledonian crows are capable of building — at least when it comes to crafting tools.F.Jelbert and her team then gave the crows paper to let them cut into proper size.六、概要写作51.Directions: Read the following passage. Summarize the main idea and main point(s) of the passage in no more than 60 words. Use your own words as far as possible.The New Dinner and a MovieDinner and a movie was a two-part affair. But increasingly, the two have blended into a single experience, allowing moviegoers to get fries and a beer while they watch the latest superhero blockbuster. Full-service theaters have become a Friday-night pastime as Americans are going to the movies.Dine-in cinemas are not altogether new. In the late 1980s, brothers Mike and Brian Mc Menamin opened one in Portland, Ore. A decade later, inspired by the Mc Menamins, Tim and Karrie League began pairing trendy beer with hits like The Craft at the Alamo Drafthouse in Austin. But in recent years, the trend has expanded from marginal to mainstream. There are now 29 Alamo locations nationwide, from Omaha to El Paso.Full-service theaters appeal to a broader, more regionally diverse customer base. At Movie Tavern in Roswel, Ga., for instance, you can order popcorn seafood and a “Jumbo Jar” cocktailwhile watching Jumanji: Welcome to the Jungle. AMC, the biggest U.S. movie-theater company, launched Dine-In, where meals can be ordered with the push of a button.The rise in full-service moviegoing coincides with declining ticket sales across the industry more broadly. North American movie attendance in 2017 dropped to what appears to be a 27-year low. The downward tendency is the continuation of a 15-year trend. As younger audiences choose to consume content on their smartphones and the popularity of streaming rises dramatically, it’s no wonder that theater owners are seeking creative ways to stimulate customers off their couches. It’s working: despite a 2% decline in movie attendance over four years, AMC Dine-In achieved 4% growth in just two.Full-service theaters are not without complaints. Despite servers’ attempts to quiet down, many find them distracting when serving food. Besides, prices tend to get steeper once varieties of food enter the mix.But for those with the funds, the full-service theater offers reason enough to quit online movies.七、汉译英Directions: Translate the following sentences into English, using the words given in brackets. 52.只要你有耐心,你总能在夜市淘到一些便宜货。

2016年广东广州高三一模英语试卷-学生用卷
2016年广东广州高三一模英语试卷-学生用卷一、阅读理解1、【来源】 2016年广东广州高三一模第4~7题8分2019~2020学年福建福州仓山区福建师范大学附属中学高二上学期期末(C篇)第28~31题8分In 1800, only three percent of the world's population lived in cities. Only one city—Beijing—had a population of over a million. Most people lived in rural areas, and never saw a city in their lives. In 1900, just a hundred years later, roughly 150 million people lived in cities, and the world's ten largest cities all had populations exceeding one million. By 2000, the number of city dwellers exceeded three billion; and in 2008, the world's population crossed a tipping point—more than half of the people on Earth lived in cities. By 2050, that could increase to over two-thirds. Clearly, humans have become an urban species.In the 19th and early 20th centuries, many people viewed cities negatively—crowded, dirty environments full of disease and crime. They feared that as cities got bigger, living conditions would worsen. In recent decades, however, attitudes have changed. Many experts now think urbanization(城市化)is good news, offering solutions to the problems of Earth's growing population.Harvard economist Edward Glaeser, author of The Victory of the Cir, is one such person. Glaeser argues that cities are very productive because "the absence of space between people" reduces the cost of transporting goods, people, and ideas. While the flow of goods has always been important to cities, what is most important today is the flow of ideas. Successful cities enable people to learn from each other easily, and attract and reward smart people with higher wages.Another urbanization supporter is environmentalist Stewart Brand. Brand believes cities help the environment because they allow haft of the world's population to live on about four percent of the land. This leaves more space for open country, such as farmland. City dwellers also have less impact per person on the environment than people in the countryside. Their roads, sewers, and power lines need fewer resources to build and operate. City apartments require less energy to heat, cool, and light. Most importantly, people in cities drive less so they produce fewer greenhouse gases per person.So it's a mistake to see urbanization as evil; it's a natural part of development. The challenge is how to manage the growth.(1) What is Paragraph 1 mainly about?A. The history of modern cities.B. Changes taking place within cities.C. How cities have grown over time.D. Why modern cities are changing.(2) How have experts' attitudes towards cities changed in recent decades?A. They now view the weaknesses as strengths.B. They no longer see city-riving as attractive.C. They accept city life in spite of its problems.D. They think city-riving provides more benefits.(3) Which of the following would Edward Glaeser agree with?A. Cities provide more economic opportunities.B. City people get along better with each other.C. Over-crowded cities result in problems.D. Cities limit the flow of ideas.(4) According to Paragraph 4, what would be the result of moving people out of cities?A. Economic production would be reduced.B. There would be less farmland available.C. People would travel less frequently.D. House values would fall greatly.2、【来源】 2016年广东广州高三一模(C篇)第8~11题8分2019~2020学年9月广东深圳南山区深圳大学附属中学高三上学期月考(深圳科学高中联考)(C 篇)第28~31题8分(每题2分)It was December 25, 1914, only 5 months into World War I. German, British, and French soldiers, already sick and tired of the senseless killing, disobeyed their superiors and started socialising with "the enemy" along two-thirds of the Western Front.German troops held up Christmas trees with signs, "Merry Christmas". Thousands of troops ran across the battlefields covered with dead bodies. They sang Christmas songs, exchanged photographs of loved ones back home, shared food and even played football. Soldiers hugged men they had been trying to kill a few short hours before. They agreed to warn each other if their officers forced them to fire their weapons, and to aim high.Fear ran through the military leaders on both sides. They felt that their power was being challenged: soldiers declaring their brotherhood with each other and refusing to fight. Generals declared this unexpected peacemaking illegal and said that participating soldiers would face a military court. Thosefound guilty would be imprisoned or even shot. By March 1915 the socialising movement had been destroyed and the killing machine was back in full operation. Over the next three years more than fifteen million people died in the war.Not many people have heard the story of the Christmas Truce (休战). On Christmas Day, 1988, a local radio host in Boston played "Christmas in the Trenches" , a song about the Christmas Truce, several times and was stunned by his listeners' response. Thousands of people called in, praising the song, with many moved to tears by the amazing events it described.You can probably guess why the callers were in tears. The Christmas Truce story goes against most of what we have been taught about people. It lets us see the world as it can be and says, "This really happened once." It shows us the potential we have as humans, and contradicts all of those TV and newspaper stories that tell us how mean and heartless people are. It is like hearing that our deepest wishes really are true: the world really can be different.(1) The soldiers began socialising with the enemy because.A. they couldn't bear the meaningless killingB. it was the best way to avoid being killedC. they feared that they would be caughtD. their enemies were from similar backgrounds(2) How did the generals finally put an end to the soldiers' socialising?A. They sent the soldiers' loved ones to prison.B. They moved the two groups of soldiers further apart.C. They increased the number of officers to control the soldiers.D. They warned the soldiers that they would face severe punishment.(3) The underlined word "stunned" in Paragraph 4 most probably means.A. satisfiedB. shockedC. amusedD. confused(4) The author uses the story of the soldiers to imply that human beings.A. are not trustworthy under stressB. are naturally aggressive and war-likeC. are basically caring and kindheartedD. will always do what is in their own self-interest3、【来源】 2016年广东广州高三一模(D篇)第12~15题8分Earlier this year, the social media website Facebook announced that it would work with several news organisations—including The New York Times, The Guardian, and the BBC—to place news stories directly into users' personal Facebook webpage. Stories published using Facebook Instant will load more quickly and keep the style of the original publisher, who will keep all the advertising income the stories earn—at least for now. The deal shows how important social, media has become to news organisations, and is a clear sign of how the world of news is changing—and has been for a while.When Google News began in 2002, many saw it as the death of the newspaper. It had no human editor. Instead Google used, and still uses, a secret computer program that selects and displays news stories according to the reader's personal interests. More recently, Associated Press and Yahoo! have been punishing computer-written articles. Both use special software to automatically produce stories about company financial results and sports reports—areas where the quality of writing is felt to be of secondary importance to the accuracy of the data.Should we be worried about such developments? I think we should. One concern is that facebook, Google and other social media websites see journalism as a sideline, a way of putting people in front of advertisements. TAL#NBSP It isn't their primary function—so if it stops making them lots of money,they're likely to stop doing it.There's also a concern that computer-written articles are not actually journalism at all, because what a human news team produces is actually quite complex. A well-written news story puts information in context, offers a voice to each side of an argument and brings the public new knowledge.Though economics and speed of delivery mean readers will probably choose a computer-written story over a carefully shaped article—at least for daily news—I don't think the computers will be writing any in-depth articles for a while yet.(1) What is the main purpose of the article?A. To report on a new computer service offered by Facebook..B. To advise readers against reading computer-written news.C. To express concern about recent trends in online news.D. To describe the process of online news reporting.(2) Computer-written news reports have so far focused on sports and financebecause.A. these are the most popular topics for online readersB. there are fewer journalists specialising in these areasC. information on these topics is more easily availableD. writing style is less important than accuracy in these areas(3) What does the underlined word "It" in Paragraph 3 refer to?A. Journalism.B. Advertising.C. Facebook.D. Business.(4) In Paragraph 4, which of the following is mentioned as a characteristic of a well-written news article?A. The information presented is up-to-date.B. The author's opinion is clear.C. Different views on the topic are presented.D. The language used is vivid.二、七选五4、【来源】 2016年广东广州高三一模第16~20题10分2017~2018学年广东广州荔湾区广东实验中学(高中)高一上学期开学考试第51~55题10分Vacations are important. We need to take time out from work to relax, and just beourselves.1We should all be allowed to leave our jobs behind us—at least for a few weeks each year—and just have fun. This might be something as simple as reading a good book in front of a warm fireplace through to travelling to the most interesting places on our planet. Whatever we fancy doing is worth taking time out for.Workplace stress is on the rise.2These include disease, depression and even death. We all seem to be running from one place to the next, never finding out where we want to go in the first place. I intend to break that trend in the coming days.3I will sleeplate, write, watch movies, drink the occasional glass of wine, and eat to my heart's content ignoring calorie counting. My plan is to just enjoy the fleeting moments of being alive.4Spend your next vacation the way you want. Do what will restore your mental health. You're very valuable to the people who are close to you, and to those who depend on it. Like it or not, we are all interdependent in this great life of ours.You are valuable. Just remember that the next time you look at the mirror and take a deep breath. Remind yourself that there will never be anyone like you ever on this earthagain.5All you have to do is just ask yourself what you want to do.A. With it come many health problems.B. When you finally get home you'll be greatly refreshed.C. I challenge each one of you to do the same.D. Draw up a detailed plan so you can see more.E. Life is not all about work, or at least it shouldn't be.F. And only you know how to vacation your way.G. For my next holiday, I will do all the things that I love doing.三、完形填空5、【来源】 2016年广东广州高三一模第21~40题30分The dolphin (海豚) swam in her tiny tank.

She has been preparing forthis Christmas since the end of the last one. Ms Mumford made thehuge savings by checking price comparison websites and as a resultcollected more presents than she needed for Christmas. After sortingout gifts for all of her family, she has even been able to donate£1,000 worth of presents to her local hospital.“It has been so nice to have Christmas sorted and not having to worry about breaking the bank. I wanted to get high quality presents for my family and show that you can do it without spending a fortune. There is a misconception that everyone who does couponing only gets value products but through my careful shopping I have managed to purchase designer perfumes(香水), a high-end coffee machine .”she explained.She said “What started as a hobby to h elp me save money has turned into my life and I am able to run a business helping people save money. I know what it feels like to struggle as my ex-partner had a lot of debt which I took on for him. We were in a poor situation where every penny counted. Th at’s what really inspired me.”She has now turned her bargain-hunting addiction into a business where she searches for the best deals and offer tips to the general public through video blogging and her Facebook Page.“I try and show people that it is jus t a little bit of work in the beginning but it will eventually pay off. One of the best things to do is just to be a bit forward thinking and save throughout the year.”24.

There’s nothing better than nodding off on the sofa in front of the TV and when my head hits the pillow at night, I haveno problem falling into a deep sleep within minutes. There is one place where I never nap (打盹) a nd that’s at work—but new research suggests I should!The idea of you and your colleagues heading off for a lie down in the afternoon may seem strange, but some companies such as Google and Facebook actually encourage it. Because it’s thought that a power-nap makes them more refreshed and more focused, and this in turn makes them more productive.An Australian health writer called Victoria is a founder of a campaign called Nap Now which is trying to make sleeping at work more acceptable. She calls herself a “naptivist”! She says: “I think that our culture is a bit crazy not to accept it… It’s time to end the common work principle which is all about working longer and harder.”So should we all be taking a sleeping bag and pillow to work with us? A few years ago, research by the East of England Development Agency found 30% of people have their best ideas in bed compared to just 11% who have them at their desk. That suggests people are more creative when they are relaxed—and the agency has called for companies to put beds in the workplace.A nap in the afternoon is nothing new. In certain hot countries, such as Spain, a short rest or sleep in the afternoon—called a siesta—is perfectly normal. So maybe we should break from the traditional nine-to-five work cultur e and take up the siesta. The UK’s Sleep Council claims the nine-to-five working day does not fit into the natural sleeping pattern of the human race and says that bosses need to introduce a more sleep-friendly working day.28. Why are the employees of Google allowed to nap in the workplace?A. They are expected to work better.B. They can’t focus their attention on the work.C. They are running the Nap Now campaign.D. They have difficulty in falling sleep at night.29. The underlined word “naptivist” in P aragraph 3 probably refers to someone who ______.A. takes no nap at workB. enjoys napping at workC. studies sleeping at workD. fights against working long hours30. According to the passage, what can we learn about siesta?A. It is a newly practiced pattern.B. It has been taken up in Finland.C. It is sort of traditional work culture.D. It fits into the natural sleeping pattern.31. What is the author’s main purpose of writing the passage?A. To explain how to nap at work.B. To show how the new study was carried out.C. To tell us the importance of sleeping at work.D. To call for the more sleep-friendly work culture.DSince Henry Ford turned it into a mass-market product a century ago, the car has delivered many benefits. It has promoted economic growth, increased social mobility and given people a lot of fun. But the car has also brought many problems. It pollutes the air, creates traffic jams and kills people. An astonishing 1.24 million people die, and as many as 50 million are hurt, in road accidents each year. Drivers and passengers waste around 90 billion hours in traffic jams each year. In some car-choked cities as much as a third of the petrol used is burned by people looking for a space to park.Fortunately, a new technology promises to make motoring safer, less polluting and less tendency to hold-ups. “Connected cars”—which may eventually develop into driverless cars but for the foreseeable future will still have a human at the wheel—can communicate wirelessly with each other and with traffic-management systems, avoid walkers and other vehicles and find open parking spots.Some parts of the transformation are already in place. Many new cars are already being fitted with equipment that lets them keep their distance and stay in a motorway automatically at a range of speeds. Soon, all new cars in Europe will have to be able to warn the emergency services if their on-board sensors(传感器)discover a crash. Singapore has led the way with using variable tolls(道路通行费)to smooth traffic flows during rush-hours; Britain is pioneering “smart motorways”, whose speed limits vary constantly to achieve a similar effect. Combined, these new inventions could create a much more highly effective system in which cars and their drivers are constantly warned of dangers and showed the ways, traffic always flows at the proper speed and vehicles can travel closer together, yet with less risk of crashing.In the past, more people driving meant more roads, more jams, more death and more pollution. In future, the connected car could offer mankind the pleasures of the road with rather less of the pain.32. According to Paragraph 2, the problem of parking has resulted in ______.A. more time on the roadB. a great waste of fuelC. even heavier traffic jamsD. increased death and injuries33. What does “a similar effect” in the Paragraph 4 refer to?A. Reducing traffic jams.B. Building smart motorways.C. Setting proper speed limits.D. Keeping steady traffic flows.34. What is the author’s attitude towards connected cars?A. Curious.B. Doubtful.C. Supportive.D. Disappointed.35. Which of the following can be the best title of the text?A. The Future of Cars: Wireless WheelsB. The Future Traffic Management SystemC. The Benefits and Problems of CarsD. The Promising Future of Car Production第二节(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。
