AI have had all kinds of interesting neighbors since the early days of my life. When I was a baby I would stand in my wooden crib(婴儿床) and watch the world go by through the window. Some neighbors watched me watching the world go by with by big, wondering eyes and found me very interesting. They used to call me “the beauty at the window”.The early neighbors I could remember were from the second house I lived in. Peter and Paul were twins. We went to play school together although they were a year older than me. I well remember the Alsatian they had which ran into me when I was invited to their fifth birthday party. Needless to say, I was well-known for my loud screams after the party. But they said the pet was scared of my screams and didn’t appear until the party was over.Peter and Paul were the first boys who encouraged me to climb the gate. I could never tell the difference between boy and girl behaviors—I just did what I thought was fun. Not only did I have a great time performing that first climb, I also got my skirts dirty, and was criticized by my mother.The Japanese neighbors I had living in this same house were my favorite, as they introduced me to sea-salt baked shrimps (烤虾) which were so crisp that you could eat the shrimp totally. They gave me some seaweed for my birthday. Thankfully, no other member in my family enjoyed the seaweed as I did. Perhaps what my mother used to joke to me was true, that I was picked up out of the dustbin that belonged to a Japanese home.Maybe sometimes it is difficult to find good neighbors in this society. But all it takes is a spark(火花) to get a fire going. I have decided to be that spark wherever I live and pass love on to my neighbors.21. We can guess "the Alsatian" in the twin brothers' home is ___________.A. a small childB. an interesting toyC. a dogD. a bicycle22. From the passage we can know that the author___________.A. enjoyed the Japanese neighbors' cooking style mostB. had difficulty getting on with the twin brothers' familyC. was described as interesting when playing with boysD. had many neighbors that worked in restaurants23. What can we infer from the passage?A. The author often moved to other places.B. Peter and Paul liked to play tricks on others.C. The neighbors the author had were good at cooking.D. The author had a good relationship with her neighbors.BBelow are four ads on the website.Artful ExperienceIt’s an artful experience even if you’re artistically challenged.

Which of the following can be the best title for the fourth advertisement?A. Nice Rome tripsB. Airport Car Rentals With DriversC. Cheap Car ToursD. Flight Service To Pick You UpCTo the mom I used to be:Two years ago, you were happy and whole. You had a plan for life --- start a new business, get involved in the Parent-teacher Association, teach your sons how to ride bicycles, spend as much time with your friends and parents as possible, watch your children mature and grow old with your husband. You were a “glass half full” person who often felt so much joy. You always looked forward, smiled and danced.Two years ago, on December 14,2012, the world changed and you changed with it. Disturbed young men with access to high-powered guns went to your sons’ school and killed six educators and twenty first- graders. Your eldest son Jake survived, but was changed by the day he discovered some monsters are real. He describes it as the day “when evils came to my school.” Your youngest son, Dylan, whom you thought of as a pure love, with his charming eyes and infectious giggle(微笑),was killed. Shot multiple times, he died instantly in the arms of his special- education assistant who also died while trying to protect him.The tragedy changed all your life, not only because of losing your child, but because of the hole inside you that can never be filled. Your eldest son has been forced to grow up too fast because of the loss of his brother. The pain has altered the lines on your husband’s face. The way you look at the world has changed. Your interactions with friends and fami ly seem foreign. … …But the things have moved on with hopefulness. You are now someone far more realistic. You control your feelings because you fear if you really let it out, you would never recover. It would destroy you. You know what you should do is try everything to protect more children. You’re fighting a good fight, what the whole society really needs.With love,Nicole Hockley, Dylan’s mom28. Saying a "glass half full" person, the author means she________.A. was once an optimistic momB. was always a very busy momC. was living a life to the fullestD. got drunk with half a glass of beer29. The letter tends to indicate that Dylan_________.A. might have some mental disabilityB. has become childish since his teacher diedC. should have been protected from being killedD was then studying in the same class as his brother30. Which can best describe Dylan's mom's attitude towards life today?A. NegativeB. PositiveC. HopelessD. Depressed31. The author writes the letter mainly to __________.A. tell herself not to forget the bitterly painful pastB. praise the educators' brave deeds in time of dangerC. tell the readers how the shooting has changed her familyD. describe the bad effects of school violence on studentsDLife is not easy in senior high school. You’ve got the pressure of studies and exams.From time to time, you may feel depressed and frustrated. When depression strikes, you have to take measures to fight it. One of the strangest ways to fight depression is to eat salt, scientists have found.Salt acts as a natural anti—depressant (抗抑郁剂), researchers say. While too much can lead t o high blood pressure and heart disease, not enough can cause “psychological(心理的) depressions”, a study has reported.The study, by researchers at the University of Iowa in the US, discovered that when rats are deficient in salt, they don’t do activities they normally enjoy.The recommended daily salt intake for an adult is four grams, although experts say the body needs only half as much. However, most adults in the developed world consume(消耗)around ten grams a day, mainly because their diets contain high salt amounts. Today, 77 percent of US salt intake comes from processed and restaurant foods, like frozen dinners and fast food.The minerals in salt are required by the body—in small quantities—to help move liquid in and out of cells. But too much can cause diseases, for example high blood pressure.Today scientists are finding that salt is an addictive substance—almost like a drug.One sign of addiction is using a substance even when it’s known to be harmfu l. Many people are told to eat less salt due to health concerns, but they have trouble doing so because they like the taste and find low-salt foods tasteless.Humans have a long history of eating salt. In the Stone Age, people didn’t need to find salt, bec ause they hunted most of their food, and ate a lot of red meat, which has plenty of salt in it. But when people began to farm, about 10,000 BC, they started to eat mainly grains like rice and wheat, and very little meat. Then they had to find another way to get salt.32. What does the underlined word "deficient" in the third paragraph mean?A. enoughB. far from enoughC. more than enoughD. plenty33. The major role of salt is to ____________.A. help the body work wellB. help fight against depressionD. help people get rid of an addiction to drugsD. help people enjoy sugary substances34. Which of the following statements is true?A. People have trouble reducing salt because they d on't know it is harmful toeat too much of it.B. Before 10,000 BC, human beings did not need salt.C. The richer the country is, the more salt is eaten there.D. Taking more than 4 grams of salt a day can be harmful for an adult's health.35. What kind of food should people eat more of?A. Frozen foodB. Fast foodC. Red meat D Low--salt food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。

AIn 1947 a group of famous people from the art world headed by an Austrian conductor decided to hold an international festival of music,dance and theatre in Edinburgh. The idea was to reunite Europe after the Second World War.At the same time, the “Fringe” appeared as a challenge to the official festival.Eight theatre groups turned up uninvited in 1947,in the belief that everyone should have the right to perform,and they did so in a public house disused for years.Soon,groups of students firstly from Edinburgh University, and later from the universities of Oxford and Cambridge,Durham and Birmingham were makingthe journey to the Scottish capital each summer to perform theatre by little-known writers of plays in small church halls to the people of Edinburgh.Today the “Fringe”,once less recognized, has far outgrown the festival with around 1,500 performances of theatre,music and dance on every one of the 21 days it lasts. And yet as early as 1959,with only 19 theatre groups performing,some said it was getting too big.A paid administrator was first employed only in 1971, and today there are eight administrators working all year round and the number rises to 150 during August itself. In 2004 there were 200 places housing 1,695 shows by over 600 different groups from 50 different countries. More than 1,25 million tickets were sold.1. What was the purpose of Edinburgh Festival at he beginning?A. To bring Europe together again.B. To honor heroes of World War 11.C. To introduce young theatre groups.D. To attract great artists from Europe.2. Why did some uninvited theatre groups come to Edinburgh in 1947?A. They owned a public house there.B. They came to take up a challenge.C. They thought they were also famous.D. They wanted to take part in the festival.3. Who joined the "Fringe" after it appeared?A.They owned a public house thereB.University students.C.Artists from around the world.D.Performers of music and dance.4. We may learn from the text that Edinburgh Festival.A. has become a non-official eventB. has gone beyond an art festivalC. gives shows all year roundD. keeps growing rapidlyBGiven that many people's moods (情绪)are regulated by the chemical action of chocolate, it was probably only a matter of time before somebody made the chocolate shop similar to a drugstore of Chinese medicine. Looking like a setting from the film Charlie&the Chocolate Factory, Singapore's Chocolate Research Facility (CRF) has over 100 varieties of chocolates.Its founder is Chris Lee who grew up at his parents' comer store with one hand almost always in the jar of sweets.If the CRF seems to be a smart idea, that's because Lee is not merely a seasoned salesperson but also head of a marketing department that has business relations with big names such as Levi's and Sony. That idea surely results in theimagination at work when it comes to making different flavored(味道)chocolates.The CRF's produce is "green" made within the country and divided into 10 lines, with the Alcohol Series being the most popular. The Exotic Series一with Sichuan pepper, red bean (豆).cheese and other flavors一also does well and is fun to taste.

Hehas good heart, but always feared applying for a new job.One day, he gathered up all his strength and decided to attend a job interview. His appointment was at 10 am and it was already 8:30. While waiting for a bus to the office where he was supposed to be interviewed, he saw an elderly man wildly kicking the tyre of his car. Obviously there was something wrong with the car. Jimmy immediately went up to lend him a hand. When Jimmy finished working on the car, the old man asked him how much he should pay for the service. Jimmy said there was no need to pay him; he just helped someone in need, and he had to rush for an interview. Then the old man said, “Well, I could take you to the office for your interview. It’s the least I could do. Please. I insist.” Jimmy agreed.Upon arrival, Jimmy found a long line of applications waiting to be interviewed. Jimmy still had some grease on him after the car repair, but he did not have much time to wash it off or have a change of shirt. One by one, the applicants left the interviewer’s office with disappointed look on their faces. Finally his name was called. The interviewer was sitting on a large chair facing the office window. Rocking the chair back and forth, he asked, “Do you really need to be interviewed?” Jimmy’s heart sank. “With the way I look now, how could I possibly pass this interview?” he thought to himself.Then the interviewer turned the chair and to Jimmy’s surpr ise, it was the old man he helped earlier in the morning. It turned out he was the General Managerof the company.“Sorry I had to keep you waiting, but I was pretty sure I made the right decision to have you as part of our workforce before you even stepped into the office. I just know you’d be a trustworthy worker. Congratulations!” Jimmy sat down and they shared a cup of well-deserved coffee as he landed himself a new job.12.

For whom is QUACKERY AND YOU intended for?A. Those who order some medicine.B. Those who hold special opinions.C. Those studying the science of medicine.D. Those waiting to see the doctor.BLearning any language is hard, but learning English can be es pecially challenging. Why? Because native speakers use the l anguage in ways that textbooks could never describe. In parti cular, words that British people use cause many language stu dents to scratch their heads.Here’s an example: You overhear a Briton calling someone a “wazzock”. But what exactly is a wazzock? This word, in fact, means a foolish person, although there’s nothing about it that would help you guess that. There are many strange terms like this in British English – the Oxford English Dictionary would b e much smaller without these peculiar (古怪的) usages filling its pages.How can these odd words be explained? Part of the answer is the British sense of humor. Britons don’t like to take things to o seriously, and this is evident through many British words an d phrases. For example, to “spend a penny” means to use the bathroom. It refers to the days when people had to pay a pen ny to use a public toilet.In an interview for the BBC’s website, British linguist David Cr ystal suggested there may be historical reasons for the sheer number of odd words and phrases in British English. He think s that they began in the late 16th and early 17th centuries. Thi s was a great age for the theater, when Shakespeare and oth er writers worked hard to keep up with the demand for new pl ays. The theater’s popularity also created an incentive (刺激) to invent new words.With this in mind, perhaps Shakespeare and his peers are to blame for unusual British words such as “codswallop” and “bal derdash”– which both, ironically, mean “nonsense”.While these strange words may be confusing to non-native speakers, they certainly make studying English a lot m ore interesting.25. According to the text, why may non-native speakers find it hard to learn English?A. Dictionaries don’t explain odd usages of many words.B. A great many strange words make no sense to them.C. The English textbooks they study are usually out of date.D. They are unable to understand the humor in conversations.26. With the example of “spend a penny”, the author intends t o _________.A. explain one reason of how some strange phrases were cre atedB. explain the meaning and background of the phraseC. show what typical British sense of humour isD. show British people’s attitude toward strange words27. According to David Crystal, _________.A. many of the words that Shakespeare invented were nonse nseB. Shakespeare’s works are boring because of the odd words involvedC. the theatre’s success in the 17th century inspired the birth of many odd wordsD. the odd words in Shakespeare’s plays contributed a lot to t he theatre’s popularity28. What is the text mainly about?A. The development of the British English.B. Shakespeare’s influence on British English.C. The origin and meanings of British humour.D. Some reasons for the large number of odd words in British English.CIn a video posted online, a United Airlines passenger, who is an Asian, is shown with a bloody face after he was forced off an overbooked flight on April 9, 2017, making the already trou bled airline earn more bad press.Overbooking on flights happens all the time. Empty seats cost airlines money, so they offset(抵消) the number of passengers who miss flights by selling seve ral more tickets. In this case, the problem arose because Unit ed(美联航) decided at the last minute to fly four employees to a conne ction point and needed four passengers to make way for them .Normally, when there's an overbooking issue, airlines will offe r compensation(赔偿) to the passengers who are willing to take a later flight. At first, they were offered $400, a hotel room for the night, and a flight the following afternoon. When no one took the offer, the amount was upped to $800. Still no volunteers. So a manage r boarded the flight and informed passengers that four people would be selected to leave the flight.A couple who were selected agreed to leave the plane volunt arily. However, A man refused, saying he was a doctor and h ad to see patients in the morning. An airline manager told himthat security would be called if he did not leave. Then, securit y officers came to speak to him. Their conversation ended wit h the man being yanked(猛拉) from his seat onto the floor and dragged off, blood visible on his face.This incident caused a stir in public. Many criticized United's r acism and cruelty. Some even called for a boycott of the airlin e. The company is facing increasing pressure around the worl d. United is also suffering from broader worries among invest ors (投资人)about US airline performance.29. What can we learn about overbooking on flights?A. It rarely occurs.B. It makes more m oney.C. It's for employees.D. It always causes pr oblems.30. What do airlines usually do first when there's an overbooki ng issue?A. Select some passengers randomly and ask them to leave.B. Call the security and force some passengers to leave.C. Find some volunteers and offer them compensation.D. Require the last few passengers not to board the plane.31.Why did the man refuse to leave the plane?A.He was unsatisfied with the compensation.B. He was frightened by the security officers.C. He had got an appointment the next day.D.He was badly injured and was bleeding.32.What can be learned from the last paragraph?A. The company's reputation is greatly damaged.B. The company has already lost many investors.C. Incidents like this will not happen again.D. No passengers will take United's flights.DMost nations have at least one type of food that people from o ther countries think is unusual or unethical(不道德的)to eat. In France, people eat horse meat and frog legs. In Sou th Korea and parts of China, restaurants serve dog meat. And in Australia, it’s common to cook kangaroo meat on the barbe cue and use emu(鸸鹋)eggs to make pancakes.The kangaroo and emu are native to Australia. Both animal s are important to the national image of Australia and appear on the Australian coat of arms. They’re also central figures in t he history of the indigenous(土生土长的)Australian Aboriginals(土著人). However, Aboriginal tribes still hunt these animals for their meat, fur and fat.Today, Australian people continue to eat these animals. On e of the reasons people eat kangaroo meat is that it’s high in protein and low in fat, so eating kangaroo is a good option for anyone on a diet. It’s also cheaper to eat kangaroo meat than other red meats. Because of this, a lot of university students c hoose to buy kangaroo meat. BBC News also reported that A ustralian scientists believe that eating kangaroo meat is good for the environment--kangaroos have different digestive systems than cows and sh eep, meaning they produce less methane(甲烷),the second biggest contributor to global warming.While emu meat is high in iron and vitamin C, most people don’t think it tastes good. For this reason, they prefer emu eg gs. One egg is large enough to make seven omelettes(煎蛋). And while it’s illegal to collect emu eggs from the wild, th ey can be bought from emu farms. Rather than cracking the b eautiful dark shell, it’s better to drain it by putting a small hole at each end and blowing. Afterwards, you can even carve a d esign into the eggshell.33. The author mentioned the meat-eating customs of different countries at the beginningof the article to __________.A. present different cultures’ meat-eating preferencesB. suggest that people try to understand other countries’ dietsC. introduce the consumption of kangaroo meat and emu egg s in AustraliaD. compare different eating habits among different countries34. According to the article, the kangaroo __________.A. is not considered precious in AustraliaB. is considered healthy and environmentally friendly to eatC. faces extinction due to hunting by Aboriginal tribesD. contains large amounts of iron and vitamins in its meat35. Which of the following statements is TRUE about emu eg gs?A. Emu eggs taste terrible but are nutritious.B. The shells of emu eggs are not difficult to break.C. It’s common for Australians to collect emu eggs from the wi ld.D. Emu egg shells can be used to create art.第二节(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)阅读下面的文章,从文章后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

Where can you possibly read this passage?A. posterB. internetC. brochureD. news rep ortBChristmas was near a season that we took seriously in our ho use. But a week or so before the 25th, my father would give e ach of his children $ 20. This was the 1970s, and $ 20 was qu ite a bit of money.But I saw it differently. My father trusted me to have the smart to spend money wisely. Even better, he gave me the means t o get it. On a very basic level, my father was giving me a shop ping spree (狂欢) every year.. But he was also giving me charge over my ow n fun, trusting my ability to manage money and making me fe el like a grown-up. He didn’t buy me Sherlock Holmes, but he gave me the m eans to walk into the bookstore and choose it for myself, so it felt like a gift from him.My mother had a gift for giving me what I needed, usually righ t at the moment I needed it most. This was when I was 25, I fa iled at being an adult on my very first try. I had quitted my pre vious job but had no new one. But when my mother paid me a visit, I put on a good show, telling her I had started my own c ompany.My mother knew that I was trying hard and failing at that time. It wasn’t until after she left that I noticed at the foot of my bed an envelope thick with cash. She knew how desperately I ne eded it. She knew that had she just shown up with groceries, or offered to pay my rent, she would have made me feel much worse. The cold, hard cash meant she was helping me. And, funnily enough, the distance with which she gave the gift felt li ke she was giving me space to fix my life and preserve my dig nity. My mother and father both did the same thing. One was giving me the means to take my own decisions, and the other was giving me a second chance when those decisions had cost me dearly.24. What can we learn about the author from the first two para graphs?A. His family once celebrated Christmas happily.B. His father gave the author chances to make decisions.C. His best memories about Christmas were in the 1970s.D. He used to choose books as his father’s gift on Christmas.25. What does the underlined word “it” in Paragraph 2 refer to ?A. money offered by his father.B. father generous with money.C. Christmas being important.D. the means of spending money.26. When he was 25 years old, the author .A. planned to open his companyB. became interested in showsC. gave his mother a giftD. was out of work27. Which word can best describe the author’s mother?A. sensitive.B. optimistic.C. considerate.D. determined.CIn 2013 alone at least 20,000 African elephants were killed for their teeth. In over the last two years more than 2,200 rhinos were killed for their horns. These numbers are alarming, bec ause current rates of illegal hunting are faster than birth rates, which could lead to extinction for these ecologically important creatures in their environment. Indeed, some elephant and rh ino populations are on track to be locally extinct within the nex t decade.If you are reading this, you may already be aware of these fac ts. But you might not know that wildlife trafficking(走私) not only threatens the existence of elephants and rhinos b ut is also leading to extinction of other species, such as tigers, tortoises, sea turtles—and the world’s most trafficked mammal—pangolins(穿山甲). Pangolins are the only mammals that are entirely covered in t ough scales (鳞), which makes them look very strong. But act ually they are endangered mammals. There are eight different species of pangolins, four in Asia and four in Africa, and all ar e threatened with extinction. Although pangolins are protected throughout most of the countries where they live, high deman d in East Asia, where the delicious pangolin meat is considere d a delicacy and where their scales are used in traditional medicines, is driving an illegal trade in both live animals and pan golin parts. The number of pangolin trafficking is shocking. Ex perts believe that over the last 10 years more than 1 million p angolins were taken from the wild. It is estimated that betwee n 40,000 and 81,250 pangolins were killed for the illegal trade in 2013 alone.In February, the released a plan to deal with wildlife traffickin g, which lays out the steps we will take to fight the illegal trade in wildlife, including pangolins. We are strengthening the carr ying out of the plan; building international cooperation and co ntribution to protect wildlife; raising awareness to drive down t he demand that is fueling the illegal trade.Get involved and remember World Wildlife Day (March 3) by s preading the plan. Use social media and tell everyone that no w is the time to get serious about wildlife crime and end the d emand that threatens species, big and small, from the huge el ephant to the shy pangolin.28. How many endangered creatures are mentioned in the pa ssage?A.4.B.5.C.6.D.7.29. Which of the following is TRUE according to Paragraph 3?A. Eight species of pangolins live on the same continent.B. Pangolins are not protected in most of their natural habitats .C. The scales of pangolins can be used as an ingredient for c ooking.D. High demand contributes to the illegal trade of pangolins in East Asia.30. What can we know about the plan released by the ?A. Social media will be used to spread World Wildlife Day.B. Whether the plan will be worked out remains to be seen.C. High demand contributes to the illegal trade of pangolins in East Asia.D. The US will work together with other countries to protect wi ldlife.31. What is the author’s intention of writing the passage?A. To inform us something about World Wildlife Day.B. To raise awareness of protecting endangered wildlife.C. To explain why pangolins are illegally traded in East Asia.D. To show how the is to fight the illegal trade in wildlife.DWhen going through major life changes, like changing careers, I would change the people with whom I spent the most time. We’ve all gone through periods when the people in our lives h ave changed—graduation, moving to a , getting a new job, joining a new club , etc. I don’t think I need to convince you just how much influe nce other people can have over your identity. If you’ve ever e xperienced a major switch in your people environment, then y ou know that you change as well.Most people don’t make these choices consciously though. Y ou might consciously decide to spend more time with a certai n friend, or you may ask someone out on a date to begin a ne w relationship. But few people choose their existing friendship s deliberately.There’s no “getting rid of people”. People are always dropping into and out of each other’s lives. Associations grow into frien dships, and friendships fade into associations. You don’t get ri d of anyone. The truth is that in order to make room for new p eople and new experiences, you may need to loosen up some of your existing connections.What about loyalty? Shouldn’t you always be loyal to your frie nds? Once you have a close friend, even if their influence on you is slightly harmful, shouldn’t you stick by them?Loyalty to a friend sometimes means having to let go. It means being loyal to their highest and best as well. If someone is d estroying his health by smoking, for example, you aren’t show ing loyalty by smoking right along with him. True loyally somet imes requires that you break damaging connections, get your self back on solid ground, and then decide what you can reall y do to help your friend.It can take a lot of courage to tell someone, “I’m sorry, but I ca n't have you in my life anymore." But even though this might s eem like a selfish act at times, it's often the best thing for the other person too. If a relationship is holding you back in some way, understand that it s also hurting the other person. For ex ample, if you work for a violent boss, your acceptance of that situation is considered to be silent approval, encouraging your boss to continue to behave violently.32. When experiencing major life changes, people may______ ___.A. join a new social communityB. influence their friends aroundC. choose their friendships purposelyD. have their people environment changed33. What can be concluded from Paragraph 3 in the passage ?A. Everyone has at least one friend.B. Friendship still exists though there’s less connection.C. It is unnecessary to make new friends.D. You ought to treat your old and new friend equally.34. What is the author's opinion on the loyalty to friends?A. Never betray your close friends whatever happens.B. Correct their mistakes while you guard their goodness.C. Stick by your friends even though they do harm to you.D. Break up with your friends immediately if they smoke.35.

They have no pensions, which (26) ______ (enjoy) by urban workers, and many are still the chief earners of their families.

Each word can only be used once. Note that there is one word more than you need.Quite often, educators tell families of children who are learning English as a second language to speak only English, and not their native language, at home. Although these educators may have good ___41___, their advice to families is misguided, and it arises from misunderstandings about the process of language ___42___. Educators may fear that children hearing two languages will become ___43___ confused and thus their language development will be ___44___. Children are capable of learning more than one language, whether simultaneously (同时地) or sequentially (依次地). In fact, most children outside of the United States are expected to become bilingual or even, in many cases, multilingual. Globally, knowing more than one language is viewed as an asset (资产) and even a ___45___ in many areas.It is also of concern that the misguided advice that students should speak only English is given ___46___ to poor families with limited educational opportunities, not to wealthier families who have many educational advantages. Since children from poor families often are ___47___ as at-risk for academic failure, teachers believe that advising families to speak English only is appropriate. Teachers consider learning two languages to be too ___48___ for children from poor families, believing that the children are already burdened by their home situations.If families do not know English or have limited English skills themselves, how can they communicate in English? Advising non-English-speaking families to speak only English is ___49___ to telling them not to communicate with or ___50___ with their children. Moreover, the underlying message is that the family’s native language is not important or valued.III. Reading ComprehensionSection A (15分)Directions: For each blank in the following passage there are four words or phrases marked A, B, C and D. Fill in each blank with the word or phrase that best fits the context.In the increasingly busier world where productivity is on the minds of many, instead of downloading the latest time management app, or forcing yourself to stay at work for hours on end, is there a(n) ___51___ to being productive?The first thing we should know is that willpower is a(n) ___52___ source that can be entirely used up. So instead of ___53___ yourself to simply try harder, amore methodical approach is suggested.The first step: Get started! It may seem ___54___ but studies have shown starting a project to be the biggest barrier to productivity. Before starting, our brain visualizes the hardest parts to come, and instead tries to simulate real work by focusing on small mindless tasks.___55___, there’s construct of the mind known as the Zeigernik Effect (蔡格尼克效应), which helps humans to finish a task that the y’ve already started. The Zeigernik Effect shows that when we don’t finish a task, we experience ___56___ and intrusive thoughts about it. So get started.Now what about time management? Shockingly, when we look at most of the elite musicians in the world, we find that they aren’t ___57___ practicing more. Instead, they focus their energy on the hardest task. Those musicians have periods of intense work followed by breaks. Not relying on willpower, they rely on their ___58___ and disciplined scheduling. Studies have found that most elite violinists generally follow a 90 minute work rule with a 15 to 20 minute break afterwards every day. But how can you develop the discipline to follow this ___59___?One key point is giving yourself a deadline; write it down; mark it in yourcalendar. And you’ll be much more likely to complete your task. On top of this, create something called an accountability (问责制) chart to ___60___ your progress. In one column write the time span, and in the other the activities you accomplished during this time, ___61___ those on a diet who record their food intake.Writing down your progress allows you to ___62___ evaluate your work. As opposed to inaccurately assuming what you’ve done, further ___63___ your progress to the end helps to avoid small mindless work.And finally, stop multitasking. Well it may feel like you’re accomplishing more. But actually, studies show that multi-taskers are much less ___64___. Instead, try and make a list at night of what you want to accomplish tomorrow. With your action plan, you ___65___ the idea of trying to complete multiple activities at once.Your brain will find these less challenging. And it will make the starting process easier. With a clear goal and action plan in mind, your productivity levels can soar to new heights.51. A. room B. secret C. attitude D.origin52. A. outstanding B. inevitable C. exhaustible D. essential53. A. convincing B. resisting C. preventing D. discouraging54. A. difficult B. complicated C. obvious D. visible55. A. Generally B. Luckily C. Unfortunately D. Briefly56.

A. stick to B. face up to C. decide on D. get rid ofSection B (24分)Directions: Read the following three passages. Each passage is Followed by several questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage you have just read.(A)Technological change is everywhere and affects every aspect of life, mostly for the better. However, social changes brought about by new technology are often mistaken for a change in attitudes.An example at hand is the involvement of parents in the lives of their children who are attending college. Surveys on this topic suggest that parents today continueto be “very” or “somewhat” overly-protective even after their children move into college dormitories. The same surveys also indicate that the rate of parental involvement is greater today than it was a generation ago. This is usually interpreted as a sign that T oday’s parents are trying to manage their children’s lives past the point where this behavior is appropriate.However, greater parental involvement does not indicate that parents are failing to let go of their “adult” children.In the context of this discussion, it seems valuable to first find out the cause of change in the case of parents’ involvement with their grown children. If parents of earlier generations had wanted to be in touch with their college-age children frequently, would this have been possible? Probably not. On the other hand, does the possibility of frequent communication today mean that the impulse to do so wasn’t present a generation ago? Many studies show that older parents -- today’s grandparents - would have called their children more often if the means and cost of doing so had not been a barrier.Furthermore, studies show that finances are the most frequent subject of communication between parents and their college children. The fact that collegestudents are financially dependent on their parents is nothing new; nor are requests for more money to be sent from home. This phenomenon is neither good nor bad; it is a fact of college life, today and in the past.Thanks to the advanced technology, we live in an age of bettered communication. This has many implications well beyond the role that parents seem to play in the lives of their children who have left for college. But it is useful to bear in mind that all such changes come from the technology and not some imagined desire by parents to keep their children under their wings.66. The surveys inform us of ____________.A. the conditions of college dormitoriesB. the sign of parent’s management in thei r own behaviorsC. the development of communication technologyD. the parents’ over-protection of their college children67. Which of the following statement does the author most probably agree with?A. Technology explains greater parental involvement with their children.B. Parents’ changed attitudes lead to college children’s delayed independence.C. Parents today are less protective than those in the past.D. The disadvantages of new technology outweigh its advantages.68. What is the meaning of the word “impulse” in this passage?A. Desperation.B. Admiration.C. Urge.D. Depression.69. Which of the following would be the best title for the passage?A. Dependence or Independence.B. Technology or Attitude.C. Family Influence or Social Changes.D. College Management or Communication Advancement.(B)Spanish-American InstituteStudent Cub NotesFree and Low Cost Gyms, Health Clubs and PoolsNYC Department of Parks Recreation CentersRecreation Centers: The NYC Department of Parks hasmany Recreation Centers throughout New York City.

You may use your annual membership at any and all Centers. Use one near the Spanish-American Institute and then use one near your home.Costs: Free and membership programs. Standard annual membership is $50 for Recreation Centers and $75 for Recreation Centers with pools. (Do you know anyone 55 and older?

You will probably fail to find ____________on the homepage.A. the cost for various membershipsB. the locations of recreations centersC. the staff and provided servicesD. the facilities, phones and web links(C)Just how much does the Constitution(宪法)protect your digital data? The Supreme Court will now consider whether police can search the contents of a mobile phone without a warrant(授权令)if the phone is on or around a person during an arrest.California has asked the justices to restore the practice that the police may search through the contents of suspects’ smartphones at the time of their arrest. It is hard, the state says, for judges to assess the implications of new and rapidly changing technologies.The justices would be careless if they followed California’s advice. They should start by rejecting California’s weak argument that exploring the contents of a smart pho ne is similar to say, going through a suspect’s wallet. The court has ruled that police don’t offend against the Fourth Amendment(修正案)when they go through the wallet, of an arrestee without a warrant. In fact, exploring one’s smartphone is more like entering his or her home. A smartphone may contain an arrestee’s readinghistory, financial history, medical history and comprehensive records of recent correspondence.Americans should take steps to protect their own digital privacy and should avoid putting important information in smartphones. But keeping sensitive information on these devices is increasingly a requirement of normal life. Citizens still have a right to expect private documents to remain private and protected by the Constitution’s prohibition on unreasonable searches.In many cases, it would not be very difficult for authorities to obtain a warrant to search through phone contents. They could still trump(打出王牌)the Fourth Amendment protections when facing severe and dangerous circumstances, such as the threat of immediate harm, and they could take reasonable measures to ensure that phone data are not deleted or altered while a warrant is on the way. The justices, though, may want to allow room for police to cite situations where they are entitled to more flexibility.But the justices should not swallow California’s argument whole. New technology sometimes demands fresh a pplications of the Constitution’s protections. Orin Kerr, a law professor, compares the explosion and accessibility of digital informationin the 21st century with the establishment of automobile use as a digital necessity of life in the 20th. At that time, the justices had to explain new rules for the new personal domain(领域)of cars. Similarly, the justices must sort out how the Fourth Amendment of the Constitution applies to digital information now.73. The Supreme Court will work out whether, during an arrest, it is legal to ____________.A. search for suspects’ mobile phones without a warrantB. check suspects’ phone contents without being authorizedC. prevent suspects from deleting their phone contentsD. prohibit suspects from using their mobile phones74. The author’s attitude toward California’s argument is one of ____________.A. toleranceB. indifferenceC. disapprovalD. carefulness75. The author believes that exploring one’s phone content is comparable to ____________.A. gettin g into one’s residenceB. handing one’s historical recordsC. scanning one’s correspondencesD. going through one’s wallet76. In Paragraph 4 and 5, the author shows his concern that ____________.A. principles are hard to be clearly expressedB. the court is giving police less room for actionC. phones are used to store sensitive informationD. citizens’ privacy is not effect ively protected77. Orin Kerr’s comparison is quoted to indicate that ____________.A. the Constitution should be carried out flexiblyB. New technology also requires reinterpretation of the ConstitutionC. California’s argument goes against principles of the ConstitutionD. Principles of the Constitution should never be alteredSection C (8分)Directions: Read the passage carefully. Then answer the questions or complete the statements in the fewest possible words.No one should be forced to wear a uniform under any circumstance. Uniforms are demanding to the human spirit and totally unnecessary in a democratic society. Uniforms tell the world that the person who wears one has no value as an individual but only lives to function as a part of a whole. The individual in a uniform loses all self-worth.There are those who say that wearing a uniform gives a person a sense of identification with a larger, more important concept. What could be more important than the individual himself? If an organization is so weak that it must rely on cloth and buttons to inspire its members, that organization has no right to continue its existence. Others say that the practice of making persons wear uniforms, say in a school, eliminates all envy and competition in the matter of dress, such that a poor person who cannot afford good-quality clothing is not to be belittled by a wealthy person who wears expensive quality clothing. Those persons conveniently ignore such concepts as freedom of choice and individuality. It is only a short step from forcing everyone to drive the same car, have the same type of foods. When this happens, all motivation to improve one’s life is removed. Why would parents bother to work hardso that their children could have a better life than they had when they know that their children are going to be forced to have exactly the same life that they had?Uniforms also hurt the economy. Right now, billions of dollars are spent on the fashion industry yearly. Thousands of persons are employed in designing, creating and marketing different types of clothing. If everyone were forced to wear uniforms, artistic personnel would be unnecessary. Sales persons would be superfluous as well; why bother to sell the only items that are available? The wearing of uniforms would destroy the fashion industry, which in turn would have a ripple effect on such industries as advertising and promotion. Without advertising, newspapers, magazines, and television would not be able to remain in business. One entire information and entertainment industry would collapse.(Note: Answer the questions or complete the statements in NO MORE THAN TEN WORDS)78. Wearing a uniform costs the individual __________________________________.79. What does the author think of an organization that is weak and has to dependon uniforms to encourage its members?_________________________________________________________________.80. Why does the author disagree with those believing that wearing uniformseliminates all jealousy and competition?_________________________________________________________________.81. If everyone were forced to wear uniforms, in terms of industry besides advertisingand promotion, _______________________________________________ would be affected.第Ⅱ卷(47分)I.

Eastern England.This could end the worries of many parents fearful for their children's safety on the roads.Until now the local government have only been prepared to provide bus services for children living more than three miles from their school,or sometimes less if special reasons existed.Now it has been decided that if a group of parents ask for help in organizing transport they will be prepared to go ahead,as long as the arrangement will not l ose money and children taking part will be attending their nearest school.The new plan is to be tried out this term for chil dren living at Milton who attend Impington School.The children live just without the three mile limit and the local government have said in the past that they will not und ertake to provide free transport to the school.But now they have agreed to offer a sum of money for a bus service from Milton to Impington and back,a plan which has the support of theschool's headmaster.Between 50and 60parents have said they would like their children to take part.Final calculations have still to be carried out,but a government official has said the cost to parents should be less than £20a term.They have been abl e to arrange the service at a low cost because there is already an agreement with the bus company for a bus to take children who live further away to Impington.The same bus would now just make one more journey to pick up the Milton children.The official said they would get in touch with other groups of parents who in the past had asked if transport could be provided for their children,to see if they would like to take part in the new plan.36.What is the aim of the plan?A.To prevent the stud ents' road accident.B.To relieve the traffic pressure.C.To save time for the parents and students.D.To help the parents save money.37.How can the l ocal government arrange the new bus service at a low cost?A.By l etting the bus run in the morning only.B.By limiting the number of the students.C.By obtaining the support from the headmaster.D.By lining the new bus service with the existing one.38.The new bus service will be paid for by .A.the parentsB.the local governmentC.the bus companyD.the l ocal government and the parents39.Which of the foll owing is possible if the plan is carried out?A.The bus company will make much more money.B.The children can choose whatever school they like.C.The parents can get rid of their worries.D.The stud ents in Impington School can have free bus rid es.40.This passage is most probably .A.a personal l etterB.an advertisementC.a headmaster's reportD.a newspaper articl e18.(12.5分)If you were to come up with a list of organizations whose failures had done the most damage to the American economy in recent in recent years,you would probably have to start with the Wall Street firms that brought us the financial crisis.From there,you might move on to the automakers in Detroit.But I would suggest that the list should also includ e a less obvious nominee:public education.At its top level,the American system of higher education may be the best in the world.Yet in terms of its core mission﹣turning teenagers into educated college graduates﹣much of the system is failing.The United States d oes a good job enrolling (招生)teenagers in college,but only half of the stud ents who enroll end up with a bachelor's d egree.So identifying the causes of the college dropout crisis in the world's largest economy matters enormously,and a new book called Crossing the Finish Line tries to d o precisely that.Its authors are economists William Bowen and Michael McPherson,and a d octoral candidate Matthew Chingos.The first probl em they diagnose is something they call und er﹣matching.It refers to students who choose not to attend the best college they can get into.They instead go to a less selective one,perhaps one that is closer to home or less expensive.About half of the l ow﹣income students with a grade﹣point average of at least 3.5 in high school and an SAT score of at least 1,200do not attend the best college they could have."I was really astonished by thed egree to which well﹣qualified students from poor families und er﹣matched," saidMr.Bowen.In fact,well﹣off stud ents attend the coll eges that do the best job of producing graduates.Meanwhile,lower﹣income students﹣even when they are betterqualified﹣often go to colleges that excel (擅长)in producing drop﹣outs."It's really a waste," Mr.Bowen said,"and a big probl em for the country." As the authors point out,the only way to lift the college graduation rate significantly is to lift it among poor and working﹣class stud ents.Instead,it appears to have fallen.What can be d one?Money is clearly part of the answer.41.Which of the foll owing would people first think of as a factor responsibl e for the American financial crisis according to this passage?A.The government.B.Public education.C.The Detroit automakers.D.The Wall Street firms.42.What is a big probl em with American higher education?A.It is hard to enroll enough stud ents into college.B.Many colleges are experiencing l ow rate of graduation.C.Many college stud ents stay away from classes.D.It is hard for many colleges to get financial aid from the government.43.The titl e of the Book Crossing the Finish Line probably means .A.running to the end of the lineB.going to collegeC.finishing college educationD.working hard in college44.Why d o some stud ents und er﹣match?A.Because they have financial difficulty.B.Because they face ambition crisis.C.Because they lack confid ence.D.Because they can't get guidance.45.The passage is mainly about .A.probl ems with secondary American education and possible solutions B.America's financial crisis,its cause and influenceC.l ow rate of American college graduation,its cause and its influenceD.relationship between American education and its economy19.(12.5分)Presid ent Coolidge's statement,"The business of America is business,"still points to an important truth today ﹣that business institutions have more prestige(威望)in American society than any other kind of organization,including the government.Why d o business institutions possess this great prestige?One reason is that Americans view business as being more firmly based on the ideal of competition than other institutions in society.Since competition is seen as the major source of progress and prosperity by most Americans,competitive business institutions are respected.Competition is not only good in itself,it is the means by which other basic American values such as individual freed om,equality of opportunity,and hard work are protected.Competition protects the freed om of the individual by ensuring that there is no monopoly (垄断)of power.In contrast to one,all﹣powerful government,many businesses compete against each other for profits.Theoretically,if one business tries to take unfair advantage of its customers,it will lose to competing business which treats its customers more fairly.Where many businesses compete for the customers' d ollar,they cannot afford to treat them like inferiors or slaves.A contrast is often made between business,which is competitive,and government,which is a monopoly.Because business is competitive,many Americans believe that it is more supportive of freed om than government,even though government leaders are elected by the people and business leaders are not.Many Americans believe,then,that competition is as important,or even more important,thand emocracy in preserving freedom.Competition in business is also believed to strengthen the ideal of equality of opportunity.Competition is seen as an open and fair race where success goes to the swiftest person regardless of his or her social class background.Competitive success is commonly seen as the American alternative to social rank based on family background.Business is therefore viewed as and expression of the idea of equality of opportunity rather than the aristocratic(贵族的)idea of inherited privilege.46.The statement "The business of America is business" probably means .A.America is a great power in world businessB.Business is of primary concern to AmericansC.The business institutions in America are concerned with commerceD.Business probl ems are of great importance to the American government47.Americans believe that they can realize their personal values only .A.by protecting their individual freed omB.when given equality of opportunityC.by way of competitionD.through doing business48.Who can benefit from business competition?A.People with id eals of equality and freedomB.Both business institutions and government.C.Honest businessmen.D.Both businessmen and their customers.49.Government is believed to differ strikingly from business in that government is characterized by .A.its rol e in protecting basic American valuesB.its absolute control of powerC.its d emocratic way of exercising l eadershipD.its function in preserving personal freedom50.It can be inferred from the passage that the author believes .A.in many countries success often depends on one's social statusB.businesses in other countries are not as competitive as those in AmericaC.American businesses are more d emocratic than those in other countriesD.Americans are more ambitious than people in other countries20.(12.5分)Confucius said,"In a group of three people,there is always somethingI can learn.Choose to follow the strengths of others,and use their shortcomings toreflect upon ourselves."As you can see from what Confucius said,everyone that we come across can teach us something useful.As l ong as we reflect on the lessons learnt from and by other people,we can continuously improve ourselves.But take note that when you refl ect on these lessons,you apply some wisd om to each lesson because each situation is unique although they share some common principles.We can learn a lot from everyone.We always tend to think that we can only learn from those who are higher in status or have more knowledge than us,but that is not really the case.We l earn from those who are l ower in status than us as well,because the experience and knowl edge of each person is very different.The best thing about this type of learning,reflecting other people's strengths and shortcomings onto ourselves,is that we do not pay for the mistakes that are made.The only cost to us is the time that is needed to learn about and reflect on these lessons from other people's lives.As we all know,some mistakes can be ones which people cannot afford to make,for instance,a broken friendship or a financial loss.Thus constantly using other people's strengths and shortcomings to reflect upon ourselves makes us realize the costs of these mistakes and reduces the possibility that we will make similar mistakes.What can we d o now to learn from others?By keeping our eyes and ears open.Be observant and able to realize what strengths and shortcomings other people have.A lot of people in this world like to complain about their lives.Listen to them and make you own assessment and from your own assessment,reflect upon your life and make improvements where necessary.51.According to the passage,which of the foll owing is NOT true?A.Confucius thought we should learn from strengths of others.B.Only from those who have more knowledge than us can we l earn.C.It is by reflecting on the l essons l earnt by others that we can improve ourselves.D.Reflecting upon other people's strengths and shortcomings can help us make fewer mistakes.52.The und erlined part "this type of learning" in the fourth paragraph probablyrefers to .A.learning from other people's mistakesB.learning from others' experiencesC.finding what strengths and shortcomings other people haveD.reflecting others' strengths and shortcomings onto ourselves53.From the fifth paragraph,we learn that .A.sometimes we can afford the costs of a broken friendshipB.our reflection will necessarily reduce our mistakesC.some reflection will help to improve ourselvesD.reflection will stop us from making any mistakes in life54.The passage is probably taken from .A.a magazine about lifeB.a book about travelC.an advertisementD.a research report55.What d oes this passage mainly talk about?A.How to improve oneself.B.How to use the shortcomings of others to reflect upon ourselves.C.How to reduce the mistakes in one's life.D.How to l earn from other people's strengths and shortcomings.第二节:写作(共两节)第一节:阅读表达(满分10分)21.(10分)Doctors say anger can be an extremely damaging emotion,unless you l earn how to d eal with it.They warn that anger can lead to heart disease,stomach probl ems,headaches,emotional probl ems and possibly cancer.Anger is a normal emotion that we all feel from time to time.Some peopl e express anger openly in a calm reasonable way.Others burst with anger,and scream and yell.But other people keep their anger inside.They can not or will not express it.This is called repressing anger.For years many d octors thought that repressing anger was more dangerous to a person's health than expressing it.They said that when a person is angry,the brainreleases the same hormones (荷尔蒙).They speed the heart rate,raise blood pressure,or sugar into the blood,etc.In general the person feels excited and ready to act.Some d octors say that both repressing and expressing anger can be dangerous.They believe that those who express anger ferociously may be more likely to d evelop heart disease,and they believe that those who keep their anger inside may face a greater danger of high blood pressure.Doctors say the solution is learning how to deal with anger.They say the first step is to admit that you are angry and to recognize the real cause of the anger,thend ecide if the cause is serious enough to get angry about.If it is,they say,"Do notexpress your anger while angry.Wait until your anger has cooled down and you are abl e to express yourself calmly and reasonably."Doctors say that a good way to deal with anger is to find humor in the situation that has made you angry.They said that laughter is much healthier than anger.(1)What's the author's purpose by writing this passage?(No more than 15 words)(2)What's the meaning of the underlined word "repressing" in Paragraph 2?(No more than 5 words)(3)According to the passage,what are the two common ways for people to

I was lucky: ] became a pilot in 1970, almost ten years before I graduated from medical school. I didn't realize then, but becoming a pilot makes me a better surgeon. I loved flying. As I flew bigger, faster planes, and in worse weather.,I learned about crew resource management (机组资源管理), or CRM, a new idea to make flying safer. It means that crew members should listen and speak up for a good result, regardless of positions.I first read about CRM in 1980. Not long after that, an attending doctor and I were flying in bad weather. The controller had us turn too late to get our landing ready. The attending doctor was flying; I was safety pilot He was so busy because of the bad turn, he had forgotten to put the landing gear (起落架) down. He was a better pilot - and my boss - so it felt unusual to speak up. But I had to: Our lives were in danger. I put aside my uneasiness and said, "We need to put the landing gear down now!" That was my first real lesson in the power of CRM,and I've used it in the operating room ever since.CRM requires that the pilot/surgeon encourage others to speak up. It further requires that when opinions are from the opposite, the doctor doesn't overreact, which might prevent fellow doctors from voicing opinions again. So when I'm in the operating room, I ask for ideas and help from others. Sometimes they're not willing to speak up. But I hope that if I continue to encourage them , someday someone will keep me from ”landing gear up”.21. What does the author say about doctors in general?A. They like flying by themselves.B. They are unwilling to take advice.C. They pretend to be good pilots.D. They are quick learners of CRM.22. The author deepened his understanding of the power of CRM when_______.A. he saved the plane by speaking upB. he was in charge of a flying taskC. his boss landed the plane too lateD. his boss operated on a patient23. In the last paragraph“landing gear up” probably means ______.A. following flying requirements.B. listening to different opinions.C. listening to what fellow doctors sayD. making a mistake that may cost lives24. Which of the following can be the best title for the text?A. A New Way to FlyB. Flying Makes Me a Better DoctorC. The Making of a Good PilotD.A Pilot-Tumed DoctorBIn 1947 a group of famous people from the art world headed by an Austrian conductor decided to hold an international festival of music, dance and theatre in Edinburgh. The idea was to reunite Europe after the Second World War.At the same time, the “Fringe” appeared as a challenge to the official festival. Eight theatre groups turned up uninvited in 1947, in the belief that everyone should have the right to perform, and they did so in a public house disused for years.Soon, groups of students firstly from Edinburgh University, and later from the universities of Oxford and Cambridge, Durham and Birmingham were making the journey to the Scottish capital each summer to perform theatre by little-known writers of plays in small church halls to the people of Edinburgh.Today the “Fringe”, once less recognized, has far outgrown the festival with around 1,500 performances of theatre, music and dance on every one of the 21 days it lasts. And years early as 1959, with only 19 theatre groups performing,some said it was getting too big.A paid administrator was first employed only in 1971, and today there are eight administrators working all year round and the number rises to 150 during August itself. In 2004 there were 200 places housing 1,695 shows by over 600 different groups from 50 different countries. More than 1,25 million tickets were sold.25. _________ was the purpose of Edinburgh Festival at the beginning?A. To bring Europe together again.B. To honor heroes of World War 11.C. To introduce young theatre groups.D. To frighten artists from Europe.26. Why did some uninvited theatre groups come to Edinburgh in 1947?A. They owned a public house there.B. They came to take up a challenge.C. They thought they were also famous.D. They wanted to take part in the festival.27. Who joined the "Fringe" after it appeared?A. They owned a public house thereB. University students.C. Rusts from around the world.D. Performers of music and dance.28. We may learn from the text that Edinburgh Festival.A. has become an illegal eventB. has gone beyond an art festivalC. gives shows all year roundD. keeps growing rapidlyCGiven that考虑到many people's moods (情绪)are regulated by the chemical action of chocolate, it was probably only a matter of time before somebody made the chocolate shop similar to a drugstore of Chinese medicine. Looking like a setting from the film Charlie& the Chocolate Factory, Singapore's Chocolate Research Facility (CRF) has over 100 varieties of chocolates. Its founder is Chris Lee who grew up at his parents' comer store with one hand almost always in the jar of sweets.If the CRF seems to be a smart idea, that's because Lee is not merely a seasoned (经验丰富的,老练的)salesperson but also head of a marketing department that has business relations with big names such as Levi's and Sony. That idea surely results in the imagination at work when it comes to making different flavored(味道)chocolates.The CRF's produce is "green". made within the country and divided into 10 lines, with the Alcohol Series being the most popular. The Exotic Series一with Sichuan pepper, red bean (豆).cheese and other flavors一also does well and isfun to taste. And for chocolate snobs,who think that they have a better knowledge of chocolate than others, the Connoisseur Series uses cocoa beans from Togo, Cuba, Venezuela , and Ghana, among others.29. What is good about chocolate?A. It serves as a suitable gift.B. It has no use.C. It helps improve the state of mind.D. It strengthens business relations.30. Why is Chris Lee able to develop his idea of the CRF?A. He knows the importance of research.B. He learns form shops of similar types.C. He has a lot of money.D. He has a lot of marketing experience.31. Which line of the CRF produce sells best?A. The Connoisseur Series.B. The Exotic Series.C. The Alcohol Series.D. The Sichuan Series.32.
