AChristmas was approaching. In order to make good preparations for it, I drove my children over an hour to a distant mall (商场) to do some Christmas shopping. We were finally nearing the exit that would take us there. I smiled and sang quietly along to the song playing on the radio.Then I noticed an older woman in worn, dirty clothes with a big sadness in her eyes at the end of the highway exit holding a sign. “It is probably someone trying to catch a ride south,” I thought to myself. When I got close enough to read it, however, I saw that it said, “Homeless. Please help. Wil ling to work for food.”I took my children into the mall, but all the Christmas spirit had left my heart. I couldn’t stop thinking about the woman by the exit, standing outside in the cold, without a home.Later after we left the mall my children and I stopped at a local store to buy some food for the long drive back home. When I got to the exit that would get us back on the highway, though, I found myself driving past it and back to the exit we had driven in on. She was still there holding her sign. I pulled off the side of the road, pulled out the money I had left in my wallet and gave it to my daughter beside me. She then rolled down her window and gave it to the lady. The woman stood there with the money in her hand and thanked us. Before she could finish her sentence my daughter reached out and gave her the food she had bought for the trip home.We pulled back out on the highway. None of us felt proud or even happy with what we had done. We only wished we could have done more.21. Which of the following best describes the author before she saw the older woman?A. Nervous.B. Happy.C. Proud.D. Cautious.22. Why did the woman stand at the highway exit holding a sign?A. To ask for directions.B. To work for food.C.To be given a ride to the south.D.To sell some Christmas goods.23. From the passage, we can learn that ________.A. the author bought some food at a distant mall for the trip back homeB.seeing the poor woman made the author not do Christmas shoppingC. after shopping the author returned in order to find the womanD. the author gave the left money to the woman personally24. The main purpose of the passage is to ________.A. encourage us to help othersB.show us her kindnessC. take pity on the poor womanD. tell us the way to do shoppingBThe United Kingdom consists of England, Scotland, Wales, and Northern Ireland. Each of them has their own unique traditions. Let’s take Scotland as an example. There is no better way to enjoy Scottish traditions than going fishing and tasting a little whisky(威士忌) at a quiet place like the Inverlochy Castle. When Queen Victoria visited there in 1873 she wrote in her diary, “I never saw a lovelier spot,” And she didn't even go fishing.Scotland is not easily defined. In certain moments, this quiet land of lakes and grass mountains changes before your very eyes. When evening gently sweeps the hillside into orange, the rivers, teeming with fish, can turn into streams of gold. As you settle down with just a people and a basket on the bank of River Orchy, near the Inverlochy Castle, any frustration will float away as gently as the circling water. It's just you and purple, pink, white flowers, a perfect harmony. If you are a new comer to fishing, learning the basics from a fishing guide may leave you with a lifetime's fun. For many, fishing is more than a sport; it is an art.Scotland offers interesting place where you can rest after a long day's fishing. Set against a wild mountain and hidden behind woodland, the beautiful Inverlochy Castle Hotel below the Nevis is a perfect place to see the beauty of Scotland's mountains. Ben Nevis is the highest of mountains, and reaching its 1342-metre top is a challenge. But it's not just what goes up that matters; whatcomes down is unique. More than 900 metres high, on the mountain's north face, lies an all-important source of pure water. Its name comes form the Gaelic language "usqueb" or "water of life"; and it is the single most important ingredient(原料) in Scotland's best known whisky.25.

A magazine introducing Scotland.B. A book about Scotland’s development.C. An advertisem ent about Nevis’s water.D. A history book about Scotland.CIf you’re looking for a job in a newspaper, here’s a good opportunity for you.

But one thing is for sure, that is, robots will play an important role in our life. Are you willing to work for a robot boss? Sorry if your answer was "no", because it will be common in the near future, according to researchers from Oxford. One third of British jobs are at "high risk of being replaced by robots in the next 20 years, the research by Deloitte, the Oxford Martin School and the University of Oxford found.Wired magazine went further. "It may be hard to believe, but before the end of this century, 70 percent of today's occupations will be replaced by automation(自动化技术)," said the magazine in 2012.Of course, people being replaced by robots is not recent news. Robots have been taking over labor work in factories and on farms for some time, lifting heavy boxes and picking fruit and vegetables.Next, cleaning chores in offices and schools will be taken over by late-night robots, starting with easy-to-do floors and windows and eventually moving to toilets, Wired predicted.But that's just the beginning. Even white-collar jobs are not safe. Any job dealing with sales, services or lots of paperwork could be taken over by robots in the future. For example, in the UK, library assistants have decreased by 48 percent since 2001, sales-related jobs have fallen by 40 percent, and travel agents by 44 percent, the Daily Mail reported.But that doesn't mean that human beings will have nothing to do in the future. Instead, we need to update our skills. Digital(数字化的) know-how, management and creativity will be in greater demand in the future, said British consulting company Deloitte.32. The underlined sentence means .A. one third of British jobs are of high profitB. British people may replace one third of robots' jobsC. one third of British jobs are dangerousD. British people may lose one third of their jobs33. From the passage, we know late-night robots are mainly made to do .A. difficult jobsB.factory and farm jobsC. cleaning jobsD. white-collar jobs34. In the UK, sales-related jobs have decreased by since 2001.A. 40%B. 44%C. 70%D.48%35. The best title for this passage is .A.Robots to Be SmarterB. Robots to Take ChargeC.Robots to Do PaperworkD. Robots to Do Hard Jobs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。
