Fill in each blank with the word or phrase that best fits the context.Everybody loves to hate invasive species. The international list of invasive species-defined as those that were introduced by humans to new places, and then ___41___ -runs to over 4,000. In Australia and New Zealand, hot war is fought against introduced creatures like cane toads(蔗蟾蜍) and rats.Some things that are uncontroversial(无争议的) are nevertheless foolish. With a few important exceptions, campaigns to ___42___ invasive species are merely a waste of money and effort -for reasons that are partly practical and partly philosophical.Start with the practical arguments. Most invasive species are neither terribly successful nor very ___43___. Britons think themselves surrounded by foreign plants. ___44___, Britain’s invasive plants are not widespread, not spreading especially quickly, and often less of a(n) ___45___ than vigorous native plants. The arrival of new species almost always ___46___ biological diversity(多样性) in a region; in many cases, a flood of newcomers drives no native species to extinction. One reason is that invaders tend to colonise ___47___ habitats like polluted lakes and post-industrial wasteland, where little else lives. They are nature’s opportunists.The philosophical reason for starting war on the invaders is also ___48___. Elimination campaigns tend to be ___49___ by the belief that it is possible to restore balance to nature -to return woods and lakes to the statebefore human ___50___. That is misguided. Nature is an everlasting mess, with species constantly emerging, withdrawing and hybridizing(杂交). Humans have only quickened these processes. Going back to ancient habitats is becoming ___51___ in any case, because of man-made climate change. Taking on the invaders is a(n) ___52___ gesture, not a means to an achievable end.A reasonable attitude to invaders need not imply passivity. A few foreign species are truly ___53___ and should be fought: the Nile perch -a fish, has helped drive many species of fish to extinction in Lake Victoria. It makes sense to ___54___ pathogens(病菌), especially those that destroy whole native tree species, and to stop known agricultural pests from gaining a foothold. Fencing off wildlife reserves to create open-air ecological museums is fine, too. And it is a good idea for European gardeners to destroy Japanese plants, just as they give no space to native harmful grasses like bindweed and ground elder. You can garden in a garden. You cannot garden ___55___. That is universally accepted.41. A. multiplied B. shrunk C. disappeared D. harvested42. A. conserve B. eliminate C. investigate D. prioritize43.

Suddenly, I felt someone pulling on my bag. 38 I probably was in someone’s way, I moved over slightly. But in one quick motion(动作), I felt my bag removed from my back, and in a flash it was 39 . I turned around to see who the thief was. I looked at the people standing behind me, but didn’t see my bag or anyone 40 .

If I want something, I 36 for it; I refuse to give up until I succeed. Over the years this attitude has worked well for me and helped me achieve my goals. 37 , when I wanted to be on the dance team at school, I learned all the dances and practiced until I could hardly 38 . And when I wanted money for a new computer, I washed cars, babysat, and walked dogs for all my neighbors.39 this year everything changed. I had set my sights on a summer40 that I was determined to get at the Water Zone, because the employees there could go on the water rides after their work and get free food at the snack bar. It was the 41 job to have on hot summer vacations. So just as I had achieved every goal in the past, I set out to 42 the job. I completed the application in my neatest handwriting, carefully prepared for my interview, and gathered a pack of recommendation letters. I was certain that nothing 43 keep me from my dream job.But after my 44 , the manager of the Water Zone told me that he could hire only those with experience in water safety. I was 45 . I felt like a failure.On the last weekend before school ended, my teacher, Mrs. Keller, asked me46 I would be interested in the k ids’ summer day camp. I decided that I had nothing to 47 , so I called the manager and 48 an interview. She was 49 by my babysitting experience and employed me. In less than a week, I had completely 50 about wanting to work at the water park. Each time I comforted a little boy who missed his mother or a little girl who needed to help tying her shoes, I felt I was doing something 51 . I realized that I had discovered my life’s 52 : to work with children. I now have a new goal. I’m going to study to become an elementary school teacher.Sometimes in life we don’t get 53 what we want. Our dream guy or girl may not be interested in us. The coach may not select us for the team. A certain employer may not choose to hire us. It’s natural to feel54 ; I sure did.

Fill in each blank with the word or phrase that best fits the context.Ask Siri if she’s a woman. Go ahead: try it. She'll tell you she’s____41____. “Like cacti, a certain species of fish,” she might say. So is Amazon’s Alexa, Microsoft’s Cortana, Samsung’s S V oice, and Google Now. But, man, do they ever sound a lot like women? ____42____, we think of them as ladies too. In Old Norse(古挪威语), Siri translates to “a beautiful woman who leads you to victory”. We assign female pronouns to them, and, in turn, they fold female turns of phrase into their robotic and occasionally silly answers to our requests.If we prize gender diversity(多样性) in other areas of daily life, why does our tech sound so____43____? The biggest reason for the female phone fixation rests in social science. “Research indicates there’s likely to be greater acceptance of female____44____,” says Karl MacDorman, a professor at Indiana University who specializes in human computer interaction. MacDorman and his team played clips of male and female voices to people of both genders, then asked them to identify which they____45____. The researchers also measured the way participants responded to the voices. In a 2011 paper, they reported that both women and men said female voices came across as warmer. ____46____, women even showed a subconscious preference for responding to females; men remained subconsciously neutral.Why the____47____? Stanford University communications professor Clifford Nass wrote that people tend to see female voices as helping them solve their problems by themselves, while they view male voices as authority figures who tell them the answers to their problems. We want____48____ to help us, but we also want to be the boss of it, so we are more likely to choose a female interface(接口程序).This tendency suggests that companies will make a better impression on a ____49____group of customers with a woman's voice. But not just any voice. It has to ____50____ a brand’s personality. For help with that, companies often turn to Greg Pal, vice president of marketing, strategy, and business development at Nuance Communications, which licenses its____51____of more than 100 voices. Pal insists that some brands choose male speakers. He turned on his iPhone and pulled up the Domino's Pizza app, which has an assistant, Dom. He sounded like a high school English teacher--educated and helpful but not ____52____. That's about right for a brand attempting to ____53____ guys ordering pies before the big game.As voice technology improves, though, designers say diversity will too. Many devices already letyou ____54____ a voice interface. For example. Homer Simpson, a famous cartoon character can tell you where to take a left on our GPS device. And Siri can become a sir, if you take the time to____55____. Want to know how to do it? Ask her. She'll tell you in her uniquely warm, helpful--and female--tone.41.

As time goes by, you could ___41___ up like a completely different person.This comes from the longest running personality study ever ___42__ by scientist. According to researchers from the University of Edinburgh in the UK, our personality changes so much from youth to old age that most people’s personalities in older age are barely ___43___ compared to their younger selves.The researchers analyzed results from a study in 1947, which gathered 1,208 teenagers in Scotland aged 14 and asked their teachers to ___44___ their personalities based on six traits(特征).Now, more than six decades later, the University of Edinburgh team has managed to contact 635 of the ___45___ students, and 174 agreed to have their personalities tested once more.At an average age of 76.7 years old, the group were asked to ___46___ themselves on the same six personality traits, then pick a close friend or family member to do the same.By ___47___ the then-and-now test results, the researchers found that there is hardly any relationship between traits people had as teenagers and those in their older years.It was “as if the second tests had been given to ___48___ people,” the study’s researchers wrote in their report, which was published in journal Psychology and Aging.The results were a surprise because research in the past found personality ___49___ in people tested from childhood to middle-age, and from middle-age to older age.As the team explained, our personality appears stable over short intervals -- ___50___ so throughout adulthood. ___51___, the longer the interval between two tests of personality, the ___52___ the relationship between the two tends to be.It’s clear that more studies are needed to find out what’s going on here. But it could be the first ___53___ that it’s not just our cells that are being ___54___ throughout life – the way we think, feel and behave might no be as ___55___ as we once thought.41.

But when we’re acting as leaders, the circumstances are 42 . The act of apology is carried out not merely at the level of the 43 but also at the level of the institution. It is a performance in which every word or expression 44 ,as they become part of the public record. Refusing to apologize can be smart, or it can be stupid. So, readiness to apologize can be seen as a sign of strong character or as a sign of weakness.Why now?The question of whether leaders should apologize publicly has never been more 45 . During the last decade or so, the United States in particular has developed an apology culture—apologies of all kinds and for all sorts of wrongdoings are made far more 46 than before. More newspaper writers have written about the growing importance of 47 apologies. Meanwhile, more and more articles, advice columns, and radio and television programs have similarly dealt with the subject of 48 apologies. Although they are not carried out in the public place, we can’t neglect the importance of this performance. Why 49 ?Why do we apologize? Why do we ever put ourselves in situations likely to be difficult, embarrassing, and even risky? Leaders who apologize publicly could be an easy target for 50 . They are expected to appear strong and capable. And whenever they make public statements of any kind, their individual and institutional reputations are in danger. Clearly, then, leaders should not apologize often. For a leader to express apology, there needs to be a strong 51 . Leaders will publicly apologize if and when they think the costs of doing so are lower than the costs of not doing so.Why refuse?Why is it that leaders so often try every means to 52 apologies, even when a public apology seems to be in order? Their reasons can be individual or institutional. Because leaders are public figures, their apologies are likely to be personally uncomfortable and even 53 risky. Apologies can be signalsfor admitting mistakes and mistakes can be indication of job insecurity. Leaders may also be afraid that 54 of a mistake will damage or destroy the organization for which they are responsible. There can be good reasons for hanging tough (硬撑) in tough situations, as we shall see, but it is a high-risk 55 .41. A. immediately B. intentionally C. occasionally D. accidentally42.

By 2014, when Ms Whitman announced HP’s decision to separate its computer and printer business from its corporate hardware and services operations, the company had grown into a clumsy ____41____Its fortunes started to ____42_____with a series of expensive and much criticized purchase. By 2012 it had lost its position as the World ‘s leading supplier of PCs to Lenovo. The dramatic ____43____was aimed at helping the firm adapt to the new age of mobile and online computing, responding to shareholder demands for more aggressive ______44_____.“ I would go from laser jet printing to our big enterprise services contracts where we were running the back end of IT for many big companies and organizations. These two things are not like each other. So the ability to focus and engage with customers on a(n)____45____set of objectives and business outcomes.I can already see the differences.” Ms Whitmannn, who now heads the new spin-off. Hewlett Packard Enterprise ( HPE) selling servers and services, says the change has already ___46____her performance. “One big change is it ____47____each of the divisions to pursue the strategy that is right for them. ____48_____, there is ‘no way ‘printer and PC company HP Inc’s decision last year to by Samsung’s printing business for $1 bn would have happened when it was part of the larger firm. So it’s that ability to drive your own program, not ____49___by other businesses that don’t have the same characteristics.” MsWhitman is so convinced her strategy is working that she’s ____50_____HPE further, spinning off both its business services division and its software business into separate companies last year.Her assumption that bigger doesn’t always mean better seems ____51____. After all, a larger company should find it easier to dominate the market it operates in. But the rapid rise of much small start-ups, competing and often overtaking these established powerful companies means the accepted wisdom that ____52_____equals success is being challenged.____53______in 2014, eBay carved PayPal , the electronic payments arm it bought in 2001, off from the main online sale business.Box, a cloud storage company, is another case in point.

Working nights and weekends meant she rarely put her 3-year-old son and 5-year-old daughter to bed, or spent Saturdays at the park. So, three years ago, Demos began testing the waters to see if operating her own business making marketing videos would create an option for more 41 time.Last month, Demos took a leap. Instead of renegotiating her 42 , she left her job to take her venture to the next level — building her own video production/media training company. It’s a career shift on a path to work-life balance that more 43 are making.New research shows the top reason why people leave their jobs is to 44 opportunities with a better work-life balance. Those who make the 45 say there almost always is a main cause, either work-or home-related. It could be a life-changing event like the birth of a child, or it could be a new demanding boss, change in job responsibilities, or too many missed milestone events. It might even be a more 46 job offer.For Denie Harris, the main cause was the attraction of a better 47 situation for a mom with young daughters. Harris had been marketing director for two companies in South Florida when an opportunity came her way to hold a similar position at her daughters’ school. It was a decision that required 48 all factors. The upside included seeing her children during the workday and sharing the same 49 with them. The downside was leaving the corporate world and earning less. “Everything in life is a give-and-take,” Harris says. “For a mom, working at your children’s school is the best possible place to be.”In the 50 to achieve work-life balance, working mothers having been “quitting” jobs for more than a decade, choosing to stay at home with their children when 51 possible. But today, both men and women are making job changes, choosing work options that better fit their 52 lifestyle. The shift often means serious consideration of 53 , including salary, advancement and fulfillment.Doug Bartel, who left his job as a TV news producer more than a decade ago, says that what working fathers often look for is predictability and control over their schedules. They are starting their own law firms or becoming self-employed consultants to gain that 54 .Big salaries aren’t necessarily the golden handcuffs(手铐) they used to be. With the traditional 40-hour workweek becoming out of date, a survey of nearly 9,700 full-time workers by the global firm of Ernst & Young found that most parents are willing to make 55 and financial concessions (让步)for work-life balance.41.

This danger can be ____41____, according to computer science professor Stuart Russell if we figure out how to turn human ___42_____into a programmable code.Russell argues that as robots take on more complicated tasks, it’s necessary to translate our morals into AI language. ____43____, 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 ____44____children.” You would want that robot ____45_____with a good set of values.” said Russell.Some robots are already programmed with basic human values. For example, mobile robots havebeen programmed to keep a ___46____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 ____47____brought-up person would do.It will be possible to ___48_____more complicated 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 ____49____.The biggest ____50_____with robots going against human values is that human beings fail to do sufficient testing and they’re produced a system that will ____51_____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 a(n) ____52____situation.If the robot is unsure whether an animal is suitable for the microwave, it has the opportunity to stop, send out beeps ,and ask for ___53_____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 ____54_____, and how to create a set of ethical(伦理的)rules. But if we ___55_____an answer , robots could be good for humanity.41. A. avoided B. revised C. increased D. rejected42. A. personalities B. behaviors C. intentions D. values43. A. Instead B.

The products 41 at the entrance? Or the soft background music?But have you ever noticed the smell? Unless it is bad, the answer is likely to be no. But while a shop's scent may not be outstanding 42 sights and sounds, it is certainly there. And it is providing to be an increasing powerful tool in encouraging people to 43 .A brand store has become famous for its distinctive scent which floats through the fairly dark hall and out to the entrance, via scent machines. A smell may be 44 but it may not just be used for freshening air. One sports goods company once reported that when it first introduced scent into its stores, customers’45 to purchase increased by 80 percent.When it comes to the best shopping streets in Pairs, scent is just as important to a brands 46 as the quality of its window displays and goods on sales.

Now the 50 of electronic commerce (e-commerce) has opened up famous brands to a wider audience.

Another brand store seeks to be much more than a shop, but rather a(n) 52_________. And scent is just one way to53______ this.Now a famous store uses complex man-made smell to make sure that the soft scent of baby powder 54_______ through the kid department, and coconut scent in the swimsuit section.

So it’s good to know that new __41__ is making cash -- banknotes and coins -- a thing of the past, turning us into a cashless society.Today, many of us already use credit and debit cards for __42__ transactions (交易) so there’s no need to carry around huge amounts of money. And now it’s __43__ to make contactless payments using tap-and-go cards which are regular bankcards but with a built-in chip. The card reader __44__ a radio signal and, when you bring the card close to the reader, the chip picks up the signal to make the payment.__45__money this way or spending on “plastic” -- an informal name for a credit card -- can put you at risk of fraud (诈骗). Criminals try to steal cards, or the information on them, to make __46__ online or in shops, which, as a result, adds too much difficulty to the police’s detective work. __47__, contactless payment is capped -- in the UK the limit is £30. And, if someone does go on a crazy spending with your card, your bank covers you against the loss. Also, the __48__ of chip and PIN technology has even been helping businesses by cutting the time people spend at the cashier’s in shops and has led to a(n) __49__ in fraud.But, if getting your bankcard out seems like too much trouble, there’s now a __50__ using wearable technology -- something you can wear that include computer and electronic technologies. Kenneth Cukier, economist and technology expert, says “this is __51__ for people who don’t want to take their card out of their wallet, or use their phone, or use their watch. People are going to be making more purchases more of the time -- __52__ for small-valued goods.”And, although our mobile phones are another way of making payments, BBC reporter Kate Russell says that when this is __53__ you can use the fingo-pay (指纹支付) system which “reads the unique maps of veins under the surface of your finger.” The trick is remembering which finger you __54__ with in the bank -- that’s whe n good old-fashioned cash might save the day!

No being who is conscious of being alive should be devalued to thinghood, dominated, and used as a resource or ___41___. The key point of the idea known as animal rights is a movement to extend moral consideration to all ___42___ beings. Nobody should have to demonstrate a specific level of intelligence or be judged beautiful to be given moral consideration. No being should have to be useful to humanity or capable of accepting “duties”in order to be extended moral consideration. ___43___, what other animals need from us is being free from duties to us.Animal rights is about letting animals live on their own terms. It can be written into our laws, but is not an actual list or bill of rights as we have for human society. It begins with our promises not to act like ___44___ of others. Animal rights is about justice ─treating animals fairly.Why is animal rights ___45 ___? It is because we humans often act as though we are the only beings on the planet.Although we depend on other animals for our very survival, humans are the only animals that have upset the balance of nature. There are lots of ways that humans ___46___ animals. We domesticate them and use them for food, even though our nutritional needs can be completely supplied by a(n) ___47___ diet. Although other materials are available, we use animal’s skin and other body parts for clothing, furs, hats, boots, jewellery and even pet toys. Humans can talk about it but animals cannot. All animals wish to experience life in its fullness. Unlike many animals who have to kill to survive, humans do not.Why should humans cause ___48___ to other beings when it’s not necessary?As we do, animals protect their children; they feel fear; they warn each other of dangers; they play. We might differ from other animals in some ways, but that doesn’t give us the right to ___49___ them down, take their lands, pollute their waters, or use them for our conveniences. Animals also experience pain and it’s not difficult to observe __50__ of pain in the way a conscious being reacts to it. We take advantage, cause distress, and act __51__ when we use animals for amusement. Lots of pets are ___52_ on the streets when their owners no longer find it convenient or affordable to keep or care for them.Whether we admit it or not, it’s a prejudice to think we are ___53___ to animals and that it is our right to control them, which can only make people act mean, hateful or neglectful. However, each of us has within us the power to ___54___. We can adopt a different attitude, one that reshape our destiny. This will have wonderful effects on the planet’s other communities, for life is ___55___ avoiding suffering. It is interacting, singing, pursuing joy.

It makes quick marketing progress, but it also presents a 41______ way to run a c ompany. Here‟re the main 42________ : The businesses today that will succeed are those able to jump around in high spirits. Chances must be seized immediately and decisions made quickly. Everyone needs more immediate answers, and the window of expected 43 to any questions has dropped from weeks to days even to hours.The problem with this way of thinking is that too often such quickness comes at the expense of 44_____ understanding the details of a situation. Sure, the networked society allows us to gather information within a short time, but does it really 45_____ up our ability to make better decisions? How do you balance the 46______ for speed with sharp and correct thinking? That5s the 47______ on the minds of a lot of people these days, including Future Shock author, Alvin Toffler, who studies the idea in our cover story. It‟s also a ___48___ of a new study by Kepner Tregoe. It reports that 77 percent of managers believe that during the past three years the number of decisions they made each workday has increased. But 85 percent of those same people say the time given to making those decisions has either ____49__ or stayed the same. Result: Speed kills. Different opinions are not shared.

If your company really does well, the Kepner report suggests ___52___ the decision-making process and figuring out what you did right. Study your successes, as well as your failures.Fast decision-making is a necessity sometimes-no question about that. But decisions are only as good as the 53____ go into them. By that measure, many of today‟s decisions are weak and could 54_____ some companies at the knees.

To a large extent, these patterns 41.________ a society's primary subsistence (存在) strategy.American social scientists have generally agreed that families everywhere fulfill four crucial social 42.________ : (a) reproduction of new members, (b) child care, (c) socialization of children to values, traditions, and norms of the society, and (d) intimacy and support for members. Although we can define the family 43.________ its functions, the emphasis given to each of them varies widely both geographically and 44.________ . For example, in nineteenth-century America, people married mainly to have children. Today, emotional support among family members has now become the dominant function of the family, and the family has become an economic unit for consumption rather than for 45.________.In recent years, social scientists have discovered important 46.________in family types, such as the single-parent family and the nuclear family fixed within a network of kin(亲戚). American families also 47.________ according to social class. A couple's social class affects the number of children they will decide to have, if any, and also the likelihood of 48.________to the family because of illness, death, or divorce. Social class also influences the amount of stress a marriage is likely to undergo and the way parents raise their children.49.________, the extent to which American families now differ by 50.________appears to be much less than it was fifty years ago.The American family has been 51.________ in a number of ways over the past few decades. Many people are marrying later, having children later, and having fewer children or none at all. These social changes have 52.________ diverse household patterns, including single-person households and childless couples. Role changes are also occurring as both partners pursue 53.________ and share family responsibilities.Many innovative family arrangements are attempts to enhance the commitment of marriage while increasing individual freedom and fulfillment. In this way, families are 54________ such broad social trends as delayed marriage, greater participation of women in the job market, and a rising rate of divorce. Undoubtedly, the American family will continue to be subjected to such pressures, but how 55.________ will these future adaptations be?41. A. reflect B. change C. confirm D. replace42.

Fans used to be crazy about a specific film, but now the public tends to base its consumption on the interest of celebrity attached to a specific ____41____. Besides, fashion magazines have almost ____42____ the practice of putting models on the cover because they don't sell nearly as well as famous faces. ____43____, celebrities have realized their unbelievably powerful market potential, moving from advertising for others’ products to developing their own.Celebrity clothing lines aren't a completely new phenomenon, but in the past they were typically aimed at the ____44____ consumers, while today they’re started by first-class stars whose products enjoy equal fame with some world top ____45____. The most successful start-ups have been those by celebrities with specific personal style. As celebrities become more and more experienced at the market, they expand their production scale ____46____, covering almost all the products of daily life.However, for every success story, there’s a related warning tale of a celebrity who ____47____ his consumer appeal. No matter how famous the product’s origin is, if it ____48____ to impress consumers with its own qualities it begins to resemble an exercise in self-promotional marketing. And once the initial attention dies down, consumer interest might fade, ____49____ returning to labels which have proved to be reliable.Today, celebrities face even more severe ____50____. The pop-cultural circle might be bigger than ever, but its rate of turnover(逆转) has ____51____ as well. Each misstep threatens to reduce a celebrity’s shelf life and the same newspaper or magazine that once brought him ____52____ has no problem severely criticizing him and taking everything from him when the opportunity appears. Still, the ego’s(自我的) potential for ____53____ is limitless. Having already achieved great wealth and public recognition, many celebrities see ____54____ as the next frontier to be conquered. As the saying goes, success and failure always go hand in hand. Their success as designers might last only a short time and as a matter of fact, fashion - like celebrity - has always been ____55____. So the next time celebritie s introduce their lines of fashion, let’s just wait and see how long they will stay.41. A. film B. character C. product D. magazine42.

The international list of invasive species—defined as those that were introduced by humans to new places, and then __41__ — runs to over 4,000. In Australia and New Zealand hot war is fought against introduced creatures like cane toads (蔗蟾蜍) and rats.Some things that are uncontroversial (无争议的) are nonetheless foolish. With a few important exceptions, campaigns to __42__ invasive species are merely a waste of money and effort — for reasons that are partly practical and partly philosophical.Start with the practical arguments. Most invasive species are neither terribly successful nor very__43__. Britons think themselves surrounded by foreign plants. __44__, Britain’s invasive plants are not widespread, not spreading especially quickly, and often less of a(n) __45__ than vigorous native plants. The arrival of new species almost always __46__ biological diversity (多样性) in a region; in many cases, a flood of newcomers drives no native species to extinction. One reason is that invaders tend to colonise __47__ habitats like polluted lakes and post-industrial wasteland, where little else lives. They are nature’s opportunists.The philosophical reason for starting war on the invaders is also __48__. Elimination campaigns tend to be __49__ by the belief that it is possible to restore balance to nature — to return woods and lakes to the state before human __50__. That is misguided. Nature is an everlasting mess, with species constantly emerging, withdrawing and hybridizing (杂交). Humans have only quickened these processes. Going back to ancient habitats is becoming __51__ in any case, because of man-made climate change. Taking on the invaders is a(n) __52__ gesture, not a means to an achievable end.A reasonable attitude to invaders need not imply passivity. A few foreign species are truly __53__ and should be fought: the Nile perch – a fish, has helped drive many species of fish to extinction in Lake Victoria. It makes sense to __54__ pathogens (病菌), especially those that destroy whole native tree species, and to stop known agricultural pests from gaining a foothold. Fencing off wildlife reserves to create open-air ecological museums is fine, too. And it is a good idea for European gardeners to destroy Japanese plants, just as they give no apace to native harmful grasses like bindweed and ground elder. You can garden in a garden. You cannot garden __55__. That is universally accepted.41. A. multiplied B. shrunk C. disappeared D. harvested42. A. conserve B. eliminate C. investigate D. prioritize43.

At first glance, this might seem like a strength that __41__ people the ability to make judgments which are independent of __42__ factors. But in a world of quotas(配额)and limits—__43___, the world in which most professional people operate—Dr. Simonsohn reported in Psychological Science that it was actually a weakness since an inability to consider the big picture was leading decision-makers to be biased(有偏见)by the daily samples they were working with. For example, he supposed that a judge fearful of appearing too soft on crime might be more likely to send someone to prison ___44___ he had already sentenced five or six other defendants(被告)only to forced community service on that day.To __45_ this idea, Dr. Simonsohn. and his assistants turned their attention to the university-admissions process. Admissions officers interview hundreds of applicants every year, at a rate of 4% a day, and can offer entry to about 40% of them. In theory, the ___46__ of an applicant should not depend on the few others ___47__ randomly for interview during the same day, but Dr. Simonsohn suspected the truth was otherwise.He studied the results of 9,323 MBA interviews ___48___ by 31 admissions officers. The interviewers had rated applicants on a scale of one to five. This scale ___49___ numerous factors, including communication skills, personal drive, team-working ability and personal accomplishments, into consideration. The scores from this rating were ___50___ used in conjunction with an applicant's score on the GMAT, a standardized exam which is __51___ out of 800 points, to make a decision on whether to accept him or her.Dr. Simonsohn found if the score of the previous candidate in a daily series of interviewees was 0.75 points or more higher than that of the one _52_ that, then the score for the next applicant would __53__ by an average of 0.075 points. This might sound small, but to reverse the effects of such a decrease, a candidate would need 30 more GMAT points than would otherwise have been necessary.As for why people behave this way, Dr. Simonsohn proposes that after accepting a number of strong candidates, interviewers might form the illogical expectation that a __54__ candidate “is due”. Regardless of the reason, if this sort of thinking proves to have a similar effect on the judgments of those in other fields, such as law and medicine, it could be responsible for far worse things than the __55__ of qualified business-school candidates.41.

Then he found an unexpected email in hisinbox. Could he realize his dream late? Sean was now nearly 40, alone and poor. He dreamed of being a police officer for a long time and never made it. Was it possibly 31 this time?When Sean was only a 5-year-old boy, his father's friend Paul once 32 the little boy home in his police car.

She argued that he had a true giftfor writing and should not waste it being a police officer. Sean followed his teacher's advice and finally he became a 34 for a newspaper and married. During the years, he changed several jobs but nothing made him really 35 . His heart really wasn't in the job or marriage. Actually, he had never really given up his childhood 36 to become a policeman. His wife could not bear this and left him when Sean was 39 years old. Sean was 37 to move back to St. Ignace, where his dad lived. "I feel like a failure," Sean says. He was sad and lost 25 pounds in a few months.When his father encouraged him to search for a new job, the opportunity came. Phoenix was in great need of police officers and one of Sean's old friends emailed him, "Do you still want to be a police officer?" "Phoenix was a world away - 2100 miles from St. Ignace," says Sean. "But here, at least, was one more 38 I felt reborn."In order to pass the test to enter the police academy(学院), Sean 3 9 began training, setting a daily running rule of a mile and a half. Three weeks later when he arrived in Phoenix, Sean was a man physically and emotionally changed. Finally, Sean passed the written exam and completed the physical test. On Nov. 16, 2015, Sean finished his education in the police academy.The following year, Sean got a prize because of his excellent job. "It took me 35 years. But a promise is a promise.

The atmosphere(气氛)on the three-hour bus ride was exciting as the team only thought of 1 . However, the excitement turned into shock as they walked off the bus and stared(盯着)in disbelief at their strong Greek-god-like opponents(对手). Halfway through the meet, Coach Huey realized that he had no swimmers for one of the events."Okay team, who wants to swim the five-hundred-yard freestyle?" the coach asked.Several hands went up, including Justin Rigsbee's. "I'll race, Coach!"The coach looked down at the young boy and said, "Justin, this race is twenty lengths of the pool. I've only seen you swim eight.""Oh, I can do it, Coach. Let me try."Coach Huey finally agreed, not 2 though. After all, he thought, it's not the winning but the trying that builds 3 .The whistle(哨子)blew and the opponents flew through the water and finished the race in just four minutes and fifty seconds. The winners got together to socialize while our group 4 to finish. After four more long minutes, the last tired members of our team got out of the water. The last except for Justin.Justin was 5 breaths as his hands hit the water and pushed it aside to move his thin body forward. It appeared that he would go under at any minute, yet something seemed to keep pushing his onward."Why doesn't the coach stop this child?" the parents spoke among themselves. "He looks like he's not going to make it, and the race was won four minutes ago."But what the parents did not realize was that the real race, the race of a boy becoming a man, was just 6 .The coach walked over to the young swimmer and quietly spoke. The parents thought, "Oh, he'sfinally going to pull that boy out before he kills himself." But to their 7 , the coach stepped back from the pool's edge, and the young man continued to swim.One teammate, inspired by his brave friend, went to the side of the pool and walked the lane as Justin continued. "Come on, Justin, you can do it! Keep going! Don't give up!" He was joined by another, then another, until the whole team was walking the length of the pool cheering for and 8 their teammate to finish the race set before him. Their opponents saw what was happening and 9 them. Soon the room was full of energy and excitement as teammates and opponents alike gave courage to one small swimmer.Twelve long minutes after the starting whistle had blown, a tired but 10 Justin Rigsbee swam his final lap and pulled himself out of the pool.

After spending several days shopping, my search for the best came _31_to an old plane. It was one Father’s Day that my dad and I would never forget.“Is this your first time flying?” our pil ot asked my dad. I felt a little _32_knowing that in a few minutes I would be in the sky trusting my life to someone who would fly a plane for the first time. My nerves were making me want to give up, but I knew it would be a good father-daughter_33_.After a little hesitation (犹豫), my dad started the engine. We taxied to the runway slowly. After being cleared for take-off, we went faster. I could feel the plane shaking slowly while it was _34_from the ground. After the pilot gave some instructions, my dad was flying the plane. Suddenly, we experienced a quick fall and then the plane went up again, which made me feel as if I were on a roller coaster. The plane started to move up and down and the pilot quickly took over the control. I could see the _35_on my dad’s fac e. The pilot started to tell the control tower over the radio that we had hit turbulence (气流). It was a sunny day with few clouds so I didn’t how _36_this was possible. But it was indeed very windy a few thousand feet up. I held onto my seat, trying to tell myself we were going to be OK. After a few minutes jumping up and down, the plane leveled off (在平流层飞行) and I started to breathe_37_.Finally, it was time to return. We started to go down and it seemed that we were going to _38_runway and land in trees, but somehow we landed on the ground, gradually slowing. It seemed like forever until the plane actually stopped. I was excited to _39_and it felt good to have my feet back on the ground. The smile on my dad’s face _40_had given him the best gift. The unforgettable Father’s Day was complete with an old plane, and huge smiles on our faces.31. A. advice B. gift C. excuse D. prize32. A. nervous B. excited C. painful D. satisfied33.

He wouldn’t let the baby eagle lose his _31_ . The eagle nest (巢) was down because of last night’s storm. If Frank was still alive, he would have been out here, instead of staying inside like Sam—Josh’s stepfather (继父). Mum and Sam tried to make Josh happy. But Josh still felt like a __32__ in his own home.A sound broke into Josh’s thoughts. It was a baby eagle, right beside his foot. He hurried home with him. After a quick look, Sam said, “He’s not __33_ . But we should return him to his parents as quickly as possible.”“I saw some wood in the yard. Could you help build a new nest?” Sam continued. Josh nodded. Together they __34__ a wooden box. Then they went to rest the box in the tree. While Sam was helping Josh with the necessary tools, he said, “I wish I could do this instead of you, but I’d probably just fall out of the tree.”Josh _35__ Sam was worried. “I’ll be okay,” he comforted him. “See? I have the safety rope. Even if I miss my foot ing, it will hold me.” As Josh tried to put the box into place, the mother eagle swooped (俯冲) down. Josh ducked—and he started to fall. 36 , the safety rope held him. “Are you all right?” Sam shouted. “Yes,” Josh called, “send the bird up!”Finally, Josh was back with Sam, watching the eagles circle above the new nest. They started to cheer as the eagles seemed to land, but the great birds flew away at the last minute. If the eagles didn’t accept the new home, the baby eagle would be left alone after all—and their 37 was wasted. “What are they waiting for?” Josh asked unhappily.“They’re being careful.” Something in Sam’s voice made Josh look at his stepfather. “It’s not easy to __38__ change,” Sam went on. “It’s hard to trust Golden Flowers Josh thought about that. Sam could never take the place of Frank, but perhaps he could be a friend. Friends helped each other through hard times. Josh remembered how he and Sam had worked together and how 39 Sam had been for his safety.“She’s coming in,” Sam cried. Th e mother eagle landed beside her baby.“Yes!” Josh and Sam shouted. “We40__ it!” As they high-fived each other, Josh felt closer to Sam. Now he and the baby eagle had both come home.31.

Breanna were already asleep near the 1 .Trudy and I talked to each other in a low voice and discussed what we expected to get in our stockings the next morning. We looked at the four stockings hanging by the fireplace, and we 2 that one was missing. Weren't there five people in our family? Why didn't Mum have a stocking?She had told us when she was a little girl her family didn't hang stockings on Christmas Eve.

For several minutes we began to look for our treasures through our things.Breanna brought her candy box. We chose a piece of Santa chocolate.

He was a naught boy who liked making fun of other classmates. They didn't like this but could do nothing.One day, after the science class, Suraj went to fool one of his classmates, Kiran. Kiran felt 1 and just sat on the chair. As soon as their math teacher arrived to the class, Suraj moved back to his place quickly. The class started and the 2 was asking some questions to the students.And it happened. Suraj wet his pants! He felt very ashamed. He 3 how his classmates would think about him. His wet pants would be the hot topic of the school! His friends would talk about this for years. The girls in the class would never look at him as a friend. The boys and girls would never speak with him. He would become the joker for everyone in the class. Suraj's imagination was going so wild.The math teacher noticed a kind of uneasiness in Suraj. She was watching him for a few minutes and 4 him in some kind of trouble. Suraj noticed the teacher watching him and tried to act normal. He felt that his heart would stop beating very soon. He 5 pleaded(恳求). "Dear God, you have to help me. In 5 or 10 minutes, I will be dead. I really need some 6 from you."The teacher again saw that Suraj was uneasy and she looked at him. He smiled at her. Kiran made a request to let him drink some water. 7 , Kiran from the back chair took his water bottle and started to move out of the classroom. As he crossed Suraj's desk, he dropped the water bottle. The cap opened and all water fell on Suraj.It surprised everyone greatly and the teacher 8 to help Suraj. She asked a student to get a towel from her office.His friends cleaned the desk and helped him. The teacher asked another student to bring a pair of gym pants for him to wear until his pants got dry. The act of being laughed at suddenly became sympathetic(同情的). When Kiran tried to help him, he was cornered. The teacher punished him for being so 9 .And of course, Suraj was so relaxed.

The first grade teacher gave her class a fun assignment (作业,任务)-to draw a 31 of something for which they were grateful (感激的).Most of the class might be considered not rich, but still many would celebrate the holiday with turkey and other traditional goodies (甜食) of the season. These, the teacher thought, would be the32 of most of her students’ art. And they were.But Douglas made a different kind of picture. Douglas was a different kind of boy. He was the teacher’s true child of misery (痛苦), weak and 33 . As other children played atbreak, Douglas was likely to stand close by her side. One could only guess at the 34Douglas felt behind those sad eyes.Yes, his picture was different. When asked to draw a picture of something for which he was35 , he drew a hand. Nothing else. Just an empty hand.His abstract (抽象的) picture raised the 36 of his classmates. Whose hand could it be? One child guessed it was the hand of a farmer, because farmers feed turkeys. Another suggested a police officer, because the police protect and care for people. And so the discussion went-until the teacher almost 37 the young artist himself.When the children had gone on to other assignments, she stopped at Douglas’ desk, bent (弯曲) down, and asked him whose hand it was. The little boy looked 38 and said in a low voice, “It’s yours, teacher.” She remembered the times she had taken his hand and walked with him here and there, as she had the other students. How often had she said, “39 my hand, Douglas, we’ll go outside.” Or, “Let me show you how to hold your pencil.” Or, “Let’s do this together.” Douglas was most thankful for his teacher’s hand.With tears in her eyes, she went on with her work.The story speaks of more than thankfulness. It says something about teachers teaching and parents parenting and friends showing friendship, and how much it means to the Douglases of the world.

It was clear she was wondering why I asked such a 31 . While I waited for Jenna to answer, I started imagining what life would be like without her. Losing Jenna would be like losing a very close sister. We played together. We gave each other advice.“Of course, we’ll still be friends when we’re eighty-two,” Jenna replied loudly. We looked at each other and then 32 so hard that tears ran down my face.The next year, in the fourth grade, we met Jamie. The three of us soon became best 33 . We played together almost every day.

Before Christmas, we had a really big fight, and Jamie and Jenna were against me, both saying I was bossy(霸道的). They wouldn’t even talk to me at school. I felt helpless and lonely. I thought Christmas would be 34 ! Why is this happening to me?I thought.I was 35 when Jenna came to my house and gave me a Christmas card she had made for me. I was so sure that she was still disappointed with me, but now I was getting a really special card made by herself.“Wow,” I said, 36 the silence as we stood on either side of my front door. “Thanks.”“Okay . . . well . . . I have to go,” she said 37 .“Okay. See you later then. . . .” and I closed the door and 38 back to my mom’s bedroom to finish watching a movie.“Who was that at the door?” my mom asked.“It was Jenna,” I explained, showing her the card.The 39 started with “Merry Christmas”, but then, it said, “Dear Miranda, I am so glad we’re friends. I am sorry about what I said when we were fighting. A fight won’t stop us from being friends. Besides, we said we were going to be friends even when we’re eighty-two.”I stopped reading and started laughing. I couldn’t believe I had 40 what she said that day in her backyard.

The atmosphere(气氛)on the three-hour bus ride was exciting as the team only thought of 1 . However, the excitement turned into shock as they walked off the bus and stared(盯着)in disbelief at their strong Greek-god-like opponents(对手). Halfway through the meet, Coach Huey realized that he had no swimmers for one of the events."Okay team, who wants to swim the five-hundred-yard freestyle?" the coach asked.Several hands went up, including Justin Rigsbee's. "I'll race, Coach!"The coach looked down at the young boy and said, "Justin, this race is twenty lengths of the pool. I've only seen you swim eight.""Oh, I can do it, Coach. Let me try."Coach Huey finally agreed, not 2 though. After all, he thought, it's not the winning but the trying that builds 3 .The whistle(哨子)blew and the opponents flew through the water and finished the race in just four minutes and fifty seconds. The winners got together to socialize while our group 4 to finish. After four more long minutes, the last tired members of our team got out of the water. The last except for Justin.Justin was 5 breaths as his hands hit the water and pushed it aside to move his thin body forward. It appeared that he would go under at any minute, yet something seemed to keep pushing his onward."Why doesn't the coach stop this child?" the parents spoke among themselves. "He looks like he's not going to make it, and the race was won four minutes ago."But what the parents did not realize was that the real race, the race of a boy becoming a man, was just 6 .The coach walked over to the young swimmer and quietly spoke. The parents thought, "Oh, he'sfinally going to pull that boy out before he kills himself." But to their 7 , the coach stepped back from the pool's edge, and the young man continued to swim.One teammate, inspired by his brave friend, went to the side of the pool and walked the lane as Justin continued. "Come on, Justin, you can do it! Keep going! Don't give up!" He was joined by another, then another, until the whole team was walking the length of the pool cheering for and 8 their teammate to finish the race set before him. Their opponents saw what was happening and 9 them. Soon the room was full of energy and excitement as teammates and opponents alike gave courage to one small swimmer.Twelve long minutes after the starting whistle had blown, a tired but 10 Justin Rigsbee swam his final lap and pulled himself out of the pool.

After spending several days shopping, my search for the best came _31_to an old plane. It was one Father’s Day that my dad and I would never forget.“Is this your first time flying?” our pil ot asked my dad. I felt a little _32_knowing that in a few minutes I would be in the sky trusting my life to someone who would fly a plane for the first time. My nerves were making me want to give up, but I knew it would be a good father-daughter_33_.After a little hesitation (犹豫), my dad started the engine. We taxied to the runway slowly. After being cleared for take-off, we went faster. I could feel the plane shaking slowly while it was _34_from the ground. After the pilot gave some instructions, my dad was flying the plane. Suddenly, we experienced a quick fall and then the plane went up again, which made me feel as if I were on a roller coaster. The plane started to move up and down and the pilot quickly took over the control. I could see the _35_on my dad’s fac e. The pilot started to tell the control tower over the radio that we had hit turbulence (气流). It was a sunny day with few clouds so I didn’t how _36_this was possible. But it was indeed very windy a few thousand feet up. I held onto my seat, trying to tell myself we were going to be OK. After a few minutes jumping up and down, the plane leveled off (在平流层飞行) and I started to breathe_37_.Finally, it was time to return. We started to go down and it seemed that we were going to _38_runway and land in trees, but somehow we landed on the ground, gradually slowing. It seemed like forever until the plane actually stopped. I was excited to _39_and it felt good to have my feet back on the ground. The smile on my dad’s face _40_had given him the best gift.

He wouldn’t let the baby eagle lose his _31_ . The eagle nest (巢) was down because of last night’s storm. If Frank was still alive, he would have been out here, instead of staying inside like Sam—Josh’s stepfather (继父). Mum and Sam tried to make Josh happy. But Josh still felt like a __32__ in his own home.A sound broke into Josh’s thoughts. It was a baby eagle, right beside his foot. He hurried home with him. After a quick look, Sam said, “He’s not __33_ . But we should return him to his parents as quickly as possible.”“I saw some wood in the yard. Could you help build a new nest?” Sam continued. Josh nodded. Together they __34__ a wooden box. Then they went to rest the box in the tree. While Sam was helping Josh with the necessary tools, he said, “I wish I could do this instead of you, but I’d probably just fall out of the tree.”Josh _35__ Sam was worried. “I’ll be okay,” he comforted him. “See? I have the safety rope. Even if I miss my foot ing, it will hold me.” As Josh tried to put the box into place, the mother eagle swooped (俯冲) down. Josh ducked—and he started to fall. 36 , the safety rope held him. “Are you all right?” Sam shouted. “Yes,” Josh called, “send the bird up!”Finally, Josh was back with Sam, watching the eagles circle above the new nest. They started to cheer as the eagles seemed to land, but the great birds flew away at the last minute. If the eagles didn’t accept the new home, the baby eagle would be left alone after all—and their 37 was wasted. “What are they waiting for?” Josh asked unhappily.“They’re being careful.” Something in Sam’s voice made Josh look at his stepfather. “It’s not easy to __38__ change,” Sam went on. “It’s hard to trust Golden Flowers Josh thought about that. Sam could never take the place of Frank, but perhaps he could be a friend. Friends helped each other through hard times. Josh remembered how he and Sam had worked together and how 39 Sam had been for his safety.“She’s coming in,” Sam cried. Th e mother eagle landed beside her baby.“Yes!” Josh and Sam shouted. “We40__ it!” As they high-fived each other, Josh felt closer to Sam. Now he and the baby eagle had both come home.31.

Breanna were already asleep near the 1 .Trudy and I talked to each other in a low voice and discussed what we expected to get in our stockings the next morning. We looked at the four stockings hanging by the fireplace, and we 2 that one was missing. Weren't there five people in our family? Why didn't Mum have a stocking?She had told us when she was a little girl her family didn't hang stockings on Christmas Eve.

He was a naught boy who liked making fun of other classmates. They didn't like this but could do nothing.One day, after the science class, Suraj went to fool one of his classmates, Kiran. Kiran felt 1 and just sat on the chair. As soon as their math teacher arrived to the class, Suraj moved back to his place quickly. The class started and the 2 was asking some questions to the students.And it happened. Suraj wet his pants! He felt very ashamed. He 3 how his classmates would think about him. His wet pants would be the hot topic of the school! His friends would talk about this for years. The girls in the class would never look at him as a friend. The boys and girls would never speak with him. He would become the joker for everyone in the class. Suraj's imagination was going so wild.The math teacher noticed a kind of uneasiness in Suraj. She was watching him for a few minutes and 4 him in some kind of trouble. Suraj noticed the teacher watching him and tried to act normal. He felt that his heart would stop beating very soon. He 5 pleaded(恳求). "Dear God, you have to help me. In 5 or 10 minutes, I will be dead. I really need some 6 from you."The teacher again saw that Suraj was uneasy and she looked at him. He smiled at her. Kiran made a request to let him drink some water. 7 , Kiran from the back chair took his water bottle and started to move out of the classroom. As he crossed Suraj's desk, he dropped the water bottle. The cap opened and all water fell on Suraj.It surprised everyone greatly and the teacher 8 to help Suraj. She asked a student to get a towel from her office.His friends cleaned the desk and helped him. The teacher asked another student to bring a pair of gym pants for him to wear until his pants got dry.

The first grade teacher gave her class a fun assignment (作业,任务)-to draw a 31 of something for which they were grateful (感激的).Most of the class might be considered not rich, but still many would celebrate the holiday with turkey and other traditional goodies (甜食) of the season. These, the teacher thought, would be the32 of most of her students’ art. And they were.But Douglas made a different kind of picture. Douglas was a different kind of boy. He was the teacher’s true child of misery (痛苦), weak and 33 . As other children played atbreak, Douglas was likely to stand close by her side. One could only guess at the 34Douglas felt behind those sad eyes.Yes, his picture was different. When asked to draw a picture of something for which he was35 , he drew a hand. Nothing else. Just an empty hand.His abstract (抽象的) picture raised the 36 of his classmates. Whose hand could it be? One child guessed it was the hand of a farmer, because farmers feed turkeys. Another suggested a police officer, because the police protect and care for people. And so the discussion went-until the teacher almost 37 the young artist himself.When the children had gone on to other assignments, she stopped at Douglas’ desk, bent (弯曲) down, and asked him whose hand it was. The little boy looked 38 and said in a low voice, “It’s yours, teacher.” She remembered the times she had taken his hand and walked with him here and there, as she had the other students. How often had she said, “39 my hand, Douglas, we’ll go outside.” Or, “Let me show you how to hold your pencil.” Or, “Let’s do this together.” Douglas was most thankful for his teacher’s hand.With tears in her eyes, she went on with her work.The story speaks of more than thankfulness. It says something about teachers teaching and parents parenting and friends showing friendship, and how much it means to the Douglases of the world.

She had been waiting in the door with her coat on. She had curled her hair and was wearing her best dress and smiled like an angel. “I told my friends that I was going out with my son, and they were impressed. ” she said, as she got into the car. “They can't wait to33 about our meeting. ”We went to a restaurant that, although not big, was very nice.

Much more sothan I could have imagined,” I answered.A few days later, my mother died of a serious heart disease. It happened so suddenly that Ididn't have a 38 to do anything for her. Some time later, I received an envelope with a copy of a restaurant receipt from the same place where mother and I had dined. A note in it said: “I've already paid this bill.

It was clear she was wondering why I asked such a 31 . While I waited for Jenna to answer, I started imagining what life would be like without her. Losing Jenna would be like losing a very close sister. We played together. We gave each other advice.“Of course, we’ll still be friends when we’re eighty-two,” Jenna replied loudly. We looked at each other and then 32 so hard that tears ran down my face.The next year, in the fourth grade, we met Jamie. The three of us soon became best 33 . We played together almost every day. We laughed together, cried together and shared our biggest secrets.I thought e ven time couldn’t pull us apart(分开).The three of us started fighting a lot. Before Christmas, we had a really big fight, and Jamie and Jenna were against me, both saying I was bossy(霸道的). They wouldn’t even talk to me at school. I felt helpless and lonely. I thought Christmas would be 34 ! Why is this happening to me?I thought.I was 35 when Jenna came to my house and gave me a Christmas card she had made for me. I was so sure that she was still disappointed with me, but now I was getting a really special card made by herself.“Wow,” I said, 36 the silence as we stood on either side of my front door. “Thanks.”“Okay . . . well . . . I have to go,” she said 37 .“Okay. See you later then. . . .” and I closed the door and 38 back to my mom’s bedroom to finish watching a movie.“Who was that at the door?” my mom asked.“It was Jenna,” I explained, showing her the card.The 39 started with “Merry Christmas”, but then, it said, “Dear Miranda, I am so glad we’re friends. I am sorry about what I said when we were fighting. A fight won’t stop us from being friends. Besides, we said we were going to be friends even when we’re eighty-two.”I stopped reading and started laughing. I couldn’t believe I had 40 what she said that day in her backyard.

Fill in each blank with the word or phrase that best fits the context.How to help your kids find a purpose? You don’t have to start with the really big questions. “Quick, what’s the meaning of life?” Many of us may not be able to answer that, but that doesn’t __41__ our kids don’t have questions or need answers.“The sense that your personal life is __42__ to you is a basis of psychological well-being,” says Michael F. Steger, director of the laboratory for Meaning and Quality of Life at Colorado State University. Not only that, it is tightly tied to being happier, more positive, more __43__, more caring, more helpful, more resilient (坚韧),and more satisfied in your life, relationships, and work.But helping your kids find meaning doesn’t mean parents have to __44__ all life’s ancient mysteries, Steger says. The __45__ is to understand the difference between the meaning of life and the meaning in life.“We do not have to start with the biggest and most troubling questions about our lives,” Steger says. “We can start with trying to __46__ how, today, right now, we are going to do one thing that makes the story of our lives more positive, or makes a positive difference to someone else.”With kids in __47__ school, Steger says, “At the most basic level, our best hopes for our children are that they feel their lives matter and that they __48__.” To start conversations along those lines, says Steger, “You can ask questions about what they think their best __49__ or strengths are, whether they have good relationships with otherpeople, whether they care about others. You can ask them about times when they have made a difference, made someone feel better, felt __50__ for doing something, or helped someone out. All of these kinds of questions can start a conversation about your kid’s __51__ way of being in and contributing to the world.”In middle school, says Steger, “Kids are being exposed to ideas, behaviors, assumptions, and priorities that might be __52__ di fferent from the ones they have always assumed were true.” So for kids this age, parents can start conversations focusing on how your children’s sense of who they are, how they related to others and what life is has been __53__.By high school, according t o Steger, “We hope our children see how much their lives matter, see that they are at the beginning of an exciting and strengthening life story, and have some slight ideas about __54__.” But the question of what you want to do with your life is too big for a single conversation, says Steger. Instead, he encourages parents to have __55__, smaller conversations with their kids about how they view themselves and their lives, and what kind of impact they would like to make.41.

Fill in each blank with the word or phrase that best fits the context.The two most common organizational patterns of the family are the nuclear family and the extended family. To a large extent, these patterns __41__ a society’s primary subsistence (存在) strategy.American social scientists have generally agreed that families everywhere fulfill four crucial social __42__: (a) reproduction of new members, (b) child care, (c) socialization of children to values, traditions, and norms of the society, and (d) intimacy and support for members. Although we can define the family __43__ its functions, the emphasis given to each of them varies widely both geographically and __44__. For example, in nineteenth-century America, people married mainly to have children. Today, emotional support among family members has now become the dominant function of the family, and the family has become an economic unit for consumption rather than for __45__.In recent years, social scientists have discovered important __46__ in family types, such as the single-parent family and the nuclear family fixed within a network of kin (亲戚). American families also __47__ according to social class.

It doesn't just display antiques as most other museums do. Guanfu's exhibits feel intimate(温馨), as if visitors had walked into a private house. Antique furniture is placed as it would have been in someone's home long ago, with rare blue-flowered porcelain(瓷器)vases and jars decorating the room. Apart from its branch in Beijing, Guanfu has opened two branches in Shanghai and Xiamen.Long Museum, ShanghaiTicket: 50 yuanWang Wei and Liu Yiqian have turned people's heads several times since opening the museum in 2012.In 2014, Liu snapped up a Ming Dynasty porcelain cup for HK$281.24million at an auction(拍卖).

Originally created in Denmark and launched in Brighton and Leeds in June, the service has recently been introduced in the United Kingdom by a couple of young entrepreneurs(企业家).Millions of tons of food are thrown in the trash every year, with restaurants accounting for a large part, so eco-entrepreneurs Chris Wilson and Jamie Crummie came up with the good idea to stop food waste. Using Too Good to Go not only helps restaurants save expense, but gives people in need the chance to order fancy dishes at low prices.Too Good to Go is very convenient for users. Restaurants make food available on the Too Good To Go app and website. People can look through the available dishes on the smartphones, pay for them using credit card and pick them up at a set time, an hour before closing time.Although Too Good to Go does take a fee from restaurants for each sale, its creators say the end goal is to use it for restaurants to solve their waste management problem, rather than making a profit. Wilson claims, “The idea is that restaurants stop producing the extra food so they don't need to throw it away in the trash, and we really want to put ourselves out of business by stopping food waste.”Birmingham has become the latest city where restaurants can reduce food waste to the lowest limit by working with the Too Good To Go social enterprise app.25.Where was Too Good to Go originally launched? ________A.In Denmark. B.In Brighton. C.In Birmingham. D.In the US. 26.What's the app intended to do? ________A.Make a profit by selling food on the website. B.Allow restaurants to sell foods at low prices.C.Help restaurants to deal with leftover food. D.Call on restaurants to save food and money.27.How did the creators of the app make profits? ________A.By selling copies of the app. B.By taking a fee from buyers.C.By charging restaurants for each sale. D.By getting donations from entrepreneurs.28.What can we infer from the text? ________A.People can pay less money for a rich meal. B.The app is mainly designed to help the poor. C.Dishes can be sold to make a lot of profits. D.People can get their ordered food at home.CWhen was the last time you upgraded your smartphone, and put your old handset into a cupboard never to be seen again?Rather than seeing how much we can get for it on eBay, the high-street retailer(零售商)Three is encouraging customers to do something good. Sure, you could give it to a family member or sell it and pocket the extra money,but what if that tiny little device could really change someone else's life for the better? According to Three, there are almost 15million such people in the UK, unable to enjoy the luxury of a smartphone and over 20 million of us with unused devices lying around. Reconnected, a non-profit programme, is partnering with a variety of charities (慈善机构)to get the technology to those people who need it most.But anyone who has a smartphone knows that much of the expense comes paying your monthly bill, but not for the device. So those who receive a device via the programme will also be given three months free access to the Three network allowing them to go online, sign up to job alerts and make calls without the cost hanging over them. After the period is up, they can go into any store and set up a contract(合同)with the phone they already have.Mary, 58, from Hertfordshire was given a phone, and explained how it changed her life:“Before I got my smartphone, I was terrified of technology. I wanted a job, so I knew I needed to get online. By the end of the three-month programme, I was emailing prospective employers and t king to my employment advisor via email. It has opened so many doors for me.”If you want to take part in Reconnected, all you need to do is go to your local Three store and collect a pre-paid envelope to send your device away. 2017 is looking up already.29.Why does Three encourage people to donate their unused phone? ________A.To upgrade their smartphone. B.To join the charity organization.C.To improve some poor people's life. D.To exchange for some pocket money.30. What can we know about the phone offered by the programme? ________A.The phone service is free of charge. B.It has to be returned after 3months.C.Users must pay for their phone calls. D.Its service can last with a contract.31.What does the example of Mary show? ________A.How technology changes people's life. B.How people benefit from the programme.C.How people can join the programme. D.How her career began to take off.DIt is certainly newsworthy that Julia is the first new Muppet(提线木偶)in a decade in Sesame Street, a TV program for children, but that is not the only thing that makes her special. The cheery, green-eyed 4-year-old, who has autism(自闭症), is also here to expose young kids to those with autism and teach them about acceptance.The creators decided to bring the Muppet on air so that she would be able to reach millions more kids and families. However, as autism looks different in everyone, it can be hard to introduce such a character properly. Sesame Workshop consulted with over 250 educators, psychologists, and autism organizations.In Julia's first episode, viewers observe common problems with kids who suffer autism and similar disorders. For example, when the other Muppets want to play hide and seek, Julia starts jumping up and down with excitement. Instead of laughing at her or correcting her, the group of Muppets start jumping with her and it becomes a new game. And when Julia first meets Big Bird, another Muppet, she ignores him. At first, Big Bird is hurt, but he learns that it doesn't mean she dislikes him—she just communicates with strangers in a different way.Julia was an instant hit. Families quickly connect with the little red-haired girl. Sherrie Westin, an executivevice president at Sesame Workshop, says her favorite feedback came from a mother, who used Julia to explain to her autistic daughter what the condition meant, inspiring the daughter t o say, “So I'm amazing, too, right?”Autism affects 1 in 68 children in the United States and scores more worldwide. Hopefully, by watching Julia, kids will see that everyone should be treated equally and appreciated.32.What does the underlined word “them”in Paragraph 1 refer to? ________A.Sesame Street's Muppets. B.Young kids.C.Children with autism. D.The creators of Julia.33.Why did Sesame Workshop consult many experts? ________A.To make the new Muppet entertaining. B.To get their advice on the cure for autism.C.To make autism better known through Julia. D.To make more money through the TV program. 34.How do the other Muppets react to Julia's behavior in the game? ________A.They follow her. B.They ignore her. C.They correct her. D.They laugh at her. 35.Why did the author mention the mother and her autistic daughter? ________A.To make Sesame Street popular. B.To help people with autism.C.To show the influence of Julia. D.To draw public attention to them.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.选项中有两项为多余选项.Summer is a time to look forward to because there is no school to get you down. 36 You just need to stay active, occupied, and have an open mind.·Read if you feel bored.Subscribe to a magazine or comic if you don't like books.

There are many tales about their origin. The most popular is that the festival is celebrated in honor of Qu Y uan. Qu Yuan was more concerned about his country but was not understanding by the rulers. Feeling desperately, he jumped into the Miluo River on the 5th day of the 5th lunar month, 278 BC. Before he died, the fishermen sailed their boats to look up for his body. People throw zongzi into the water, hoping to keep possible fish attacking his body.

M: W hat can I do now? I need these books to begin researching a paper I have to write.W: Y ou could get a friend to borrow them for you. Or, there’s a copy machine right over there. Why not just copy the sections you need right away?M: T hat would cost me more than the fine.(Text 10)M: G ood afternoon, I want to thank Professor Johnson for giving me the chance to talk to you today about Alaska. One of the things that concern me most is the future of the Alaska environment. About twenty years ago, before going on some wilderness research, I visited Anchorage, the largest city in Alaska. It was a small city of 40, 000 people surrounded by a quiet wilderness. When I made a recent trip there, I found amazing changes. Anchorage now has a hundred and eight thousand people, more than four times a s many as in 1960. There’re tall buildings, shopping centers and all the crowds and traffic jams. The forests and mountains are still nearby, but they seem so small compared to the city’s great size. The discovery of oil in Alaska brought increased wealth to the state. However, there have been too many people moving to Alaska in a very short period to work on the pipeline. There is not enough housing or transportation.I think Alaska must make important decisions soon. Alaskans need to decide how to develop their natural resources and mineral wealth without destroying the wilderness and harming the wildlife. What is decided on now will affect the generations to come.For today’s lecture, I’ve brought along many of the pictures I usually show in my environmen tal science classesin my own university. First, I’ll show you some pictures of Alaska’s wilderness as it is today. Then I’d like to outline my specific suggestions.Dear Gary,I’m very glad to know that you are coming to China. Of course, a Chinese name will help you better fit in with the new culture.The biggest difference between Chinese names and English names is that we put the family name first. A Chinese name usually consists of two or three characters, which often carry some special significance or expectations. As you are an energetic and warm-hearted boy, I recommend you the name Li Yang. The family name, which is shared by billions of Chinese, has the same pronunciation as yours. The given name means the sun in Chinese.I hope you like your new name and have a really good time in China.Yours,Li Hua。

Note that there are two more sentences than you need.The Tutorial System of Oxford UniversityIn the University of Oxford, teaching is conducted primarily through the tutorial system. It is one of the most unique and well-known methods of teaching across the world.The weekly tutorial consists of a one-hour meeting between the tutor and small numbers of students (usually two to four). During this time, an essay prepared specifically for that tutorial is read by students and commented upon by the tutor. At the end of the tutorial, the tutor will assign the topic of study for the coming week and suggest readings. 67Meanwhile, they are also complemented by departmental lectures which are conducted on a university wide basis, lab work, and seminars (研讨会) often with groups of perhaps 10 students.Tutorials have gained their reputation because of the close relationship they maintain between the tutor and the student. The tutorial system provides undergraduates with direct and in most cases weekly contact with tutors in their academic fields.68.Before the weekly tutorial, students are required to prepare an essay or other works, which they read or present to the tutor. During each tutorial, students are expected to communicate, debate, analyze and critique the ideas of others as well as their own in conversations with the professor and fellow-students. The tutorial system has great value that it creates learning andassessment opportunities which are highly authentic(可靠的) and difficult to fake, as the student’s work is discus sed on the spot.69The contrast between tutorials and large lectures common in the American universities is obvious. In the typical American university, students are taught by the same specialists, in the same manner, and held to the same standards.However, during tutorials, students have the opportunity to explore their own ideas directly with experts in particular subjects. 70As a result, students must engage in extensive independent reading and research, using the resources available, under the guidance of the tutor.Keys: 67-70 BFACSection CDirections: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.Talking to yourself may seem a little shameful. If you’ve ever been overheard criticizing yourself for a foolish mistake or practicing a tricky speech ahead of time, you’ll have felt the social restriction against communicating with yourself in words. According to the well-known saying, talking to yourself is the first sign of madness.67 Talking to ourselves, whether out loud or silently in our heads, is a valuable tool for thought. Far from being a sign of foolishness, self-talk allows us to plan what we are going to do, manage our activities, regulate our emotions and even create a narrative of our experience.Take a trip to any preschool and watch a small child playing with her toys. You are very likely to hear her talking to herself: offering herself directions and giving voic e to her frustrations. __68 We do a lot of it when we are young – perhaps one reason for our shyness about continuing with it as adults.As children, according to the Russian psychologist Lev Vygotsky, we use private speech to regulate our actions in the same way that we use public speech to control the behavior of others. __69__.Psychological experiments have shown that the distancing effect of our words can give us a valuable perspective on our actions. One recent study suggested that self-talk is most effective when we address ourselves in the second person: as ―you‖ rather than ―I‖.We internalize the private speech we use as children –but we never entirely put away the out-loud version. 70 You’re sure to see an athlete or two getting themselves ready for a sharp phrase or scolding themselves after a bad shot.Both kinds of self-talk seem to bring a range of benefits to our thinking. Those words to the self, spoken silently or aloud, are so much more than lazy talk.Keys:67-70 AFCBSectionCDirections:Read the following passage and choose the most suitable statement from A-F for each Blank. There are two extra statements, which you do not need.Charity—Humanity’s most kind and generous desire—is a timeless and borderless virtue, dating at least to the dawn of religious teaching. Philanthropy(慈善行为)as we understand it today, however, is a distinctly American phenomenon, inseparable from the nation that shaped it. From colonial leaders to modern billionaires like Buffett, Gates and Zuckerberg, the tradition of giving is woven into the national DNA.___67_____ Benjamin Franklin, an icon of individual industry and frugality(节俭)even in his own day, understood that with the privilege of doing well came the price of doing good. When he died in 1790, Franklin thought to future generations, leaving in trust two gifts of 1,000 Ib. of sterling silver—one to the city of Boston, the other to Philadelphia. According to his instruction, a portion of the money could not be used for 200 years.While Franklin’s gifts lay in wait, the tradition he established evolved alongside the young nation.___68_____ Often far less famed men and women have played a critical role in philanthropy’s evolution. One of my personal heroes is Julius Rosenwald, who helped construct more than 5,300 schools across the segregated(种族隔离)South and opened classroom doors to a generation of African-American students.____69____ The answer is not just to benefit others. Tax reduction, for one, encourages the rich people to give. And philanthropy has long helped improve the public image of everyone from immoral capitalists to the new tech elite. More troubling, however, are the foundational problems that make philanthropy so necessary. Just before his death, Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. wrote, ―Philanthropy is praise-worthy, but it must not cause the philanthropist to overlook the cir cumstances of economic injustice which make philanthropy necessary.‖Franklin’s gifts represent a broader principle. We are guardians of a public trust, even if our capital came from private enterprise, and our most important obligation is ensuring that the system works more equally and more justly for more people. ___70_____ America’s greatest strength isnot the fact of perfection, but rather the act of perfecting.Keys:67-70 FEABSection CDirections: Complete the following passage by using the sentences given below. Each sentence can be used only once. Note that there are two more sentences than you need.Exoplanets:The Hunt Is OnToday scientists believe that planets could outnumber the stars. For centuries, scientists and natural philosophers have proposed that stars in the night sky have planetary systems similar to our own solar system. The existence of extrasolar planets, or exoplanets, has long been discussed. ___67___ Although not the first exoplanet discovery, a planet near a sun-like star was discovered by astronomers in 1995. This kicked off an era of exoplanet hunting, with thousands of discoveries and confirmations following in its wake.___68___ However, in 2015 NASA’s Kepler space telescope found its first E arth-sized planet in a ―habitable‖zone. This is the distance form a star where surface temperatures of a planet wouldn’t be too hot or too cold for liquid water. So far, only a small slice of our galaxy, the Milky Way, has been explored. Even so, scientists have confirmed over 3,500 exoplanets, with more being added every day.To detect exoplanets, scientists use data from a variety of sources. Large ground-based telescopes, earth-circling and sun-circling satellites all collect different types of information. Because exoplanets are so far away and very close to stars, it is very difficult to see them directly. ___69___ For example, when an exoplanet moves between its star and us, it causes a small drop in the star’s brightness. Measuring this drop is the transit(凌日)method of discovery. NASA’S Kepler space telescope has discovered many exoplanets this way.As a planet circles a star, it pulls on it and causes it to shake. ___70___ Measuring these slight changes is the radial velocity(径向速度)method of discovering planets. It is one of the most productive methods for finding and confirming exoplanets.These are just two examples of the many methods scientists use in their hunt for exoplanets, hoping for more information and enhanced detail. As time progresses and technology improves, who knows what else we may find!Keys:67-70EBACSection CDirections: Read the passage carefully. 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.My wife and I recently welcomed a child into the world. His only interest right now iskeeping us awake 24/7. But one day, he’ll n eed to learn something about finance. When he does, here are some suggestions.1. You might think you want an expensive car, a fancy watch, and a huge house. But you don’t.______67______ You think having expensive stuff will bring it. It almost never does—especially from the people you want to respect and admire you.2. The road to financial regret is paved with debt. Some debt, such as a mortgage, is OK. But most spending that results in debt is the equivalent of a drug: a quick hit of pleasure that wears off, only to drag you down for years to come, limiting your options and keeping you weighed down by the baggage of your past.3. I hope you’re poor at some point. Not struggling, and not unhappy, of course. But there’s no way to learn the value of money without feeling the power of its scarcity. It teaches you the difference between necessary and desirable. _____68_____ These are essential survival skills.4. If you’re like most people, you’ll spend most of your adult life thinking, ―Once I’ve saved/earned $X, everything will be great.‖ Then you’ll hit $X, move the goalposts, and resume chasing your tail. It’s a miserable cycle. Your goals should be about more than money.5. Don’t stay in a job you hate because you made a career choice at 18. Almost no one knows what he or she wants to do at that age. Many people don’t know what they want until they’re twice that age. (These are the signs you’re in the wrong career.)6. The best thing money buys is to control over your time. _____69_______ One day you’ll realize that this freedom is one of the things that makes you truly happy.7. Change your mind when you need to. I’ve noticed a tendency for people to think they’ve mastered investing when they’re young. They start investing at age 18 and t hink they have it all figured out by age 19. They never do.8. Some people are born into families that encourage education; others are from families that are against it. Some are born into flourishing economies; others, into war and poverty. I want you to be successful, and I want you to earn it. But realize that not all success is due to hard work and not all poverty is due to laziness. Keep this in mind when judging people, including yourself.9. Your savings rate has a little to do with how much you earn and a lot to do with how much you spend. I know a dentist who lives paycheck to paycheck, always on the edge of ruin. I know another person who never earned more than $50,000 and saved a fortune. The difference is entirely due to their spending. ______70_______.10. Don’t listen to me if you disagree with what I’ve written. The world you grow up in will have different values and opportunities than the one I did. More important, you’ll learn best when you disagree with someone and then are forced to learn it yourself. (On the other hand, always listen to your mother.)Keys:67-70FACDSection CDirections: Read the following passage carefully. 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.The worst time to look for a job is when you feel desperate and must have a new one immediately. 67 If you are not in need of an immediate career change, here are ways you can improve your long-term career prospects today:Identify at least two different roles. You do not have to be qualified for these positions today, nor do they have to exist in your company. However, these roles should be related to your current skill set. They are career options that look interesting. 68 Pay close attention to what appeals to you, and write it down. This will give insight into your motivations and targets.Subscribe to a career specific magazine. Knowledge is power in the workplace. Allbusinesses must stay relevant to their customers in order to win the competitions and increase revenue(收益). Reading about industry trends, advancements and success stories keeps you in touch with market conditions. This information allows you to see which companies and professionals are leading the pack. You can follow their examples in your own workplace.69Do exceptional work. In any role, there is a way to perform at your best. Look for ways to deliver a top performance. Show up early, be flexible to new assignments, have a positive attitude, cooperate with other departments, pay attention to the little details.Be professionally curious. Talk to people about their careers. Learn more about how success is measured in other roles, departments and companies. Ask people their thoughts on different industries. 70 People hire people. You never know what connections may be relevant when you start your next job search, so develop a habit of making good connections no matter where you go. Take the time to learn about others, and be helpful when you can.As in all things in life, getting in front of a difficult task early is always less stressful than reacting to a career surprise. Changing jobs is to be expected. No matter how secure you feel today, the time will come when either you or your employer decide it is time to change.Keys: 67-70 FDABSection CDirections: Read the following passage. Fill in each blank with a proper sentence given in the box.An 18-year-girl Kayla Perkins explains what is in her bedroom, ―I throw something on the floor and I know right where it is.‖ However, her parents, Steve and Deborah Perkins, of Mckinney, Texas, haven’t caught on. Even Kayla admits that, at the worst, her room is a mess.Most families at some point have at least one child whose room looks like a landfill.67Dirty clothes pile up; dirty dishes get lost in the mess and smell bad; homework is lost; and valuable things are ruined.Some parents let it go, believing that a bedroom is private space for children to manage as they wish. Others lecture their children, offer rewards for cleaning, or punish them when they don’t. ___ 68____Mrs. Perkins says they picked up all the clothes on Kayla’s floor and hid them. They cleaned everything up. When Kayla came back to a bare bedroom, there was screaming and shouting, ―How can I live without my clothes?‖ Mrs. Perkins asked Kayla to earn her clothes back by doing housework. These days, she keeps her room clean.69 For example, since Jessica, the 14-year-old daughter wasn’t bothered by the dirty clothes all over her floor, the whole family started using her room as a place to store dirty clothes. Her attitude changed after her family did that. By the time she gave in and cleaned up her room a few days later, even she was laughing.70 Children often behave better if you treat them in the way you would want to be treated by your boss at work—with respect and high expectations.Keys: 67-70 BFDESection CDirections: Read the following passage.

Note that there are two more sentences than you need.The explosion of new media, ranging from the internet to digital television, means that people working in advertising will have to come up with more ways to catch the public’s attention in the future.______67______ No longer will all members be watching the same programme: some will be watching different channels on their own TVs, surfing the net or doing both at the same time. The advertising industry will have to work ―harder and smarter‖ to cut through the ―mess‖ of the future with a wide range of new media, all competing to catch the consumers’ eyes.People have become more individual in their consumption of advertising. New technology has made experimenting with new forms of advertising possible. The monologue where the advertisement tells housewives that this is the washing powder they should buy is just a cliché (陈词滥调) now. ______68______ There is, consequently, little hope of them surviving for more than another twenty years. A much closer relationship with the consumer is gradually being created.The definition of what constitutes advertising will expand well beyond the conventional mass media. Shopping environments will themselves become a part of the advertising process. Increasingly, they will exist not simply to sell goods, but also to entertain people and to make sure that they enjoy their time there. The aim will be to ―warm‖ people towards these places so that they will return to purchase goods there again.In spite of these and other changes, it is highly unlikely that TV, print and radio will disappear altogether as advertising media. ______69______ But other marketing strategies, such as public relations and direct marketing, will become as important as advertising. Advertising agencies will have to reinvent themselves. They will no longer be able simply to produce advertisements and then support these through PR, direct marketing or the internet. Instead, they will have to change the whole way they look at communication and start thinking about ideaswhich are not specific to one discipline.______70______ Originality of thinking has always been in short supply. It will continue to be so in the future. But there will be increasing coston the advertiser’s ability to be imaginative and to think laterally about engaging the consumer in a broader variety of media.Keys: 67-70FCEASection CDirections: Read the following passage.

Drawing on what he learned, Porios was able to participate in the International Space Apps Challenge, a virtual hackathon (编程马拉松) using data from NASA and other government agencies.If one teenager in one small city can become a genius hacker through an online course, does it mean the world has changed? We have been hearing about the potential of online education fordecades.68. A number of online education platforms have appeared, featuring professors from top universities offering free courses.69. Ng was amazed. ―It would take me 250 years to teach this many people at Stanford,‖ he says. And so, just one month into the course, Ng and his Stanford colleague, Daphne Koller, decided to leave their faculty posts (教职) and dive into online teaching full-time. In April, they launched their company, Coursera, with a $16 million round of venture funding. So far, it has managed to team up with 35 colleges in nine countries.To Ng and Koller, Coursera’s mission is simple and yet grand. That is to teach millions of people around the world for free, while also transforming higher education.According to Ng, the world’s top 20 universities en roll only about 200,000 students. There are million more who could participate in classwork at the higher level, but most of them are far from any of the leading universities. 70 .Koller says Coursera’s total registration has hit 15 million. Porios, the young Greek, is only one of those registrants. His hope is to study in Germany or England someday. He is even toying with the idea of taking classes at MIT or Stanford — but this time in person.Keys:67-70 CAFESection CDirections: Read the following passage.

You are very likely to hear her talking to herself : offering herself directions and talking about her problems. _____68_______We do a lot of it when we are young.As children ,according to the Russian Psychologist Lev Vygotsky , we use private speech to control our actions in the same way that we use public speech to control the behavior of others. As we grow older , we keep this system inside.Psychological experiments have shown that this so-called inner speech can improve our performance in tasks like telling what other people are thinking .

Wilson:―Conversation is the most common of all human social activities, and doing it well requires that we know what our conversation partners most want to hear.___67___‖says psychological scientist Daniel T, Gilbert of Harvard University.―When our friends try to tell us about movies we’ve never seen or albums we’ve never heard, we usually find ourselves bored, confus ed, and underwhelmed. ___68___. And yet, as soon as it’sour turn to speak, we do exactly the same thing to our friends –with exactly the same consequences. We wanted to understand why this happens.‖Gilbert explains. The researchers decided to do this by conducting a series of experiments.In their first experiment, the researchers assigned participants to groups of three, with one person acting as the speaker and the other two acting as listeners. Speakers watched a video and then tried do describe it to the listeners. Some of the listeners had seen the video the speaker was describing, and others had not.___69___. When the speakers were done speaking, the listeners rated them on these aspects. The results showed that speakers’ predictions were exactly b ackwards. Speakers expected listeners to respond more positively to their stories when the listeners had not seen the video they were describing ___70___. Although speakers expected listeners to enjoy hearing about a novel experience more than a familiar one, it was actually the other way around.A second study showed that when asked to predict their own reactions before hearing the story, listeners made the same mistake that speakers did.Keys: 67--70 DEAF。

While high school does not generally encourage students to explore new aspects of life,college sets the stage for that exploration.

Your doctor takes a prescription pad(药方) and writes a word on it. The word isn’t “aspirin”, it’s “Mozart”.The idea isn’t so far-fetched. Many kinds of music can stir(激发) the imagination and 75__ strong feelings. Scientists have found Mozart’s music to be excellent in its ability to calm its listeners.Many cases have been known using Mozart as a healing aid(治疗手段). 76 , a tiny newly-born baby Krissy, who weighed just 1.5pounds at birth, was on total life support. Doctors thought she had littlechance of survival(幸存). However, her mother kept on playing Mozart forKrissy, and thought it could save her daughter’s life. At last Krissy lived,but she was very small for her 77 and slower than the averagechild. At four, she was fond of music and her parents gave her violin lessons.To their great surprise, Krissy was able to play musical pieces from memory, which was far beyond the ability of an average four-year-old. Playing music 78 ___ her to improve in all areas of her life.And there are other stories. Officials in Washington State report that new arrivals from Asia learn English more 79 when they listen to Mozart. Even animals respond to Mozart. InFrance, cows listening to Mozart give more milk.Why do people choose Mozart, rather than Bach or the Beatles? Any kind of music can have an effect on some people. But Mozart has more 80 . It isn’t too fast or too slow; it’s just right. Don Campbell, who wrote a book called The Mozart Effect, says, “It’s like food. A hot spicy meal will affect you more differently than a sweet dessert. And while you might love these foods, they aren’t good for you to eat every day. You need simple, nutritious(营养的) food on a steady basis. That’s the way Mozart is.

This tiny piece of plastic is distracting○3teens from the real world.As you can see, I am very much 77 technology but there are ways that helps. It helps many people stay in touch with friends that might have moved away. In my life, I will have to move from my friends from time to time.

Staying in touch can be done in person as much as over technology.Some people have 79 making new friends and the Internet provides ways to meet new people through chat rooms. I believe relationships built online can be a little eccentric○4. One study suggests that online relationships simply take longer to develop than those face-to-face.Online relationships can be 80 because you never know who’s on the other side of the chat.

AI had just arrived in this Asian country for a one-year teaching position. One day, I took thesubway to visit some ancient palaces and temples in the downtown. The following account of what happened to me has taught me much about culture 36 .Since all the 37 were taken, I stood. Suddenly, I felt someone pulling on my bag. 38 I probably was in someone’s way, I moved over slightly. But in one quick motion(动作), I felt my bag removed from my back, and in a flash it was 39 . I turned around to see who the thief was. I looked at the people standing behind me, but didn’t see my bag or anyone 40 . My heart sank and I began to 41 .I glanced around the car only to find directly across from me was an elderly lady, and sitting on her lap was my 42 . I tried to get it back from her lap. But as I began to 43 it up, she quickly grabbed(抓住) it back and held onto it. I looked around at the people standing beside me, and those sitting beside her, but no one took any 44 of the situation. Trying not to cause a(an) 45 , I tried to negotiate throughgestures. I used my hands as best as I could, but she 46 my requests for my bag and pointed to my back. She picked up my bag, showing how 47 it was. I finally began to understand. She was holding my bag to 48 me.At the next stop, a middle-aged woman got on the crowded subway. Another elderly woman sitting down took her bag, 49 it on her lap. They didn’t talk; 50 this older woman was more than pleased to sit with this stranger’s bag on her lap throughout her journey.As the subway pulled into the main downtown station and I was getting ready to get off, the woman 51 handed me back my bag. But 52 I had a chance to thank her, she had disappeared into the crowd.Sadly, this considerate custom was more 53 to me than if I had been robbed. Everyone back home had heard of being robbed—that was 54 city behavior—but having a stranger hold onto someone’s bag out of 55 , in a city of twelve million people—that was truly unusual.36.
