Thank you for coming along tothe interview.Text 10In today’s program, we are talking about London Under ground trains. The quickest way to get around London is no doubt "the tube", London’s way of saying the Underground train. The tube is made up of twelve lines, each bearing a name and a color on the tube map. For example, the Central Line is red. And as its name suggests, it runs from east to west, taking in central London. The Circle Line is yellow, and is the only line which runs in a complete circle. About 2.5 million people use the tube each day. If you want to travel fast around London, taking the tube will get you to wherever you want quicker than bus or taxi. Trains generally leave every 3 or 4 minutes, less frequently at weekends and late at night. There are maps at each station, as well as inside each tra in, to make sure that you can see where you are going and that you are on the right train. If you find yourself going in the wrong direction, simply get off at the next station and cross the platform to the other side. Every train will show its direction on the front of the train. So, it is a good idea to look at the train as it is coming into the station.。

But is "boredom" senseless? My friend Renee, who has driven cross-country with her three kids eight times, calls boredom the mother of creativity. She's not the only one who sees virtue in blank time. In a recently published paper, researchers at East Anglia University in England concluded that the trancelike (发呆的) state helps recharge the mind and is “central to learning and creativity". I wasn't trying to make my kids smarter. Neither do I dislike high-tech. But I understand too well the power of mini screens to transform our kids into zombies (木讷的人).On Day 1, our 7-year-old son announced “Texas is so boring!The next day, struggling against his seat belt, he yelled he couldn? t take much more of this. His 5-year-old sister was better at the long hours playing make-believe with the stuffed animals. On Day 3 he began to count mountains and see pandas and dolphins in distant clouds in the Texas sky. I often joined the kids in the back, where we did thumb-and-toe wrestle. With well-known mountains ahead, my husband told the children the past legends of them. u Arizona is not as boring as Texas," our son declared.I hope the trip gave kids some lazy, unstructured time to learn something about valuing the trip instead of looking for the fastest way to burn it up. I don't always make the right call as a parent but I know that in banning the small screen we made the right choice this time.24.Why did the author choose a high-tech free journey?A.Her friends are highly against it.B.She disliked advanced technology.C.She feared the passive influence of mini-screens.D.The researchers proved the harm of modern technology.25.What happened during the cross-country drive?A.Their son got worse at boredom.B.Her kids had a tough time riding in the vehicle.C.Their son relieved himself by watching animals outside.D.The time spent without screens strengthened the family bond.26.The underlined part "the fastest way" in the last paragraph refers to .A.the speediest route to finish the journeyB.the ability to observe the surroundingsC.the interest of playing games with othersD.the choice of killing time by playing digital devices27.Which is the best title for the text?A.Is Driving Long Distances Good for Children?B. A Touching Cross-country Trip of My FamilyC.What's Wrong with Boredom without High-tech?D.Creative Kids out of Parents' Reasonable ChoiceCMaybe you pop vitamins supporting brainpower, or stock up on these foods that boost brain health. But new guidelines from the American Academy of Neurology suggest there's something better you can do to keep your mind sharp.A quarter of adults aged 80 to 84 experience mild cognitive （认知的）impairment, according to AAN. To address the widespread problem, a group of neurologists and Alzheimer?s （6可尔兹海默氏症的）specialists went through existing studies to define the best ways to prevent and treat cognitive decline 一and you might be surprised by what they included and what they didn't.Surprisingly, the AAN guidelines don ' t include any medication （药物）or dietary recommendations. The authors stress that there haven?t been any high-quality, long-term studies finding foods or medication can help cognitive decline. The guidelines also say doctors can consider suggesting cognitive training to patients with memory loss but not to rely on it. So far, the report authors say the evidence is too inconclusive to say for sure if brain exercises? like memory and attention training or problem-solving for everyday issues associated with memory loss, are beneficial. Still, these morning brain exercises can't do any harm.But there was one big discovery from the new guidelines: Exercising just twice a week could improve cognitive decline. One study showed adults with mild cognitive impairment who did resistance training twice a week scored better on executive function and associative （联想的）memory tests than a group that worked on balancing, stretching, and relaxing.What's more, another study had older adults attend either biweekly health classes or sessions of aerobics? strength training, balance exercises? and multitasking training. Six months later, the ones who'd exercised regularly scored better on cognitive health and memory tests, plus had less brain shrinkage.AAN now recommends doctors tell patients with memory loss to exercise twice a week to keep their minds sharp. This is the best time to exercise if you want to improve your memory. It looks like you've got just one more reason to clear time in your schedule for a workout — even if it's only on the weekends.28.What does the underlined word “impairment" in paragraph 2 refer to?A. Error.B. Decline.C. Development.D. Presence.29.ANN may be uncertain about .A. strength trainingB. resistance trainingC. exercises twice a weekD. morning brain exercise30.Which of the following may the author agree with?A.Daily exercises are beneficial to Alzheimer.B.The AAN guidelines attach importance to workout.C.Medication is of significance in the ANN guidelines.D.Stocking up on vitamins supporting brainpower means nothing.31.In which section of a newspaper may this text appear?A. Exercise.B. Entertainment.C. Science.D. Health.DClothing rental is a hot new industry and retailers （零售商）are demanding to get on board in hopes of attracting green shoppers.But is renting fashion actually more environmentally-friendly than buying it, and if so, how much more? Journalist and author Elizabeth Cline investigated （调查）this question and concluded that it's not as sustainable as it seems.Take shipping, for example 9 which has to go two ways if an item is rented 一- receiving and returning. Cline writes that consumer transportation has the second largest carbon footprint of our collective fashion habit after manufacturing.She writes, “An item ordered online and then returned can send out 20 kilograms of carbon each way, and increases up to 50 kilograms for rush shipping. By comparison, the carbon impact of a pair of jeans purchased froma physical store and washed and worn at home is 33. 4 kilograms, according to a 2015 study by Levi's."Then there?s the burden of washing, which has to happen for every item when it's returned, regardless of whether or not it was worn. For most rental services? this usually means drycleaning ,a high-impact and polluting process. All the rental services that Cline looked into have replaced perchloroethylene （氯乙烯），a carcinogenic （致癌的）air pollutant, still used by 70 percent of US dry cleaners, with alternatives? although these aren't great either.Lastly, Cline fears that rental services will increase our appedte for fast fashion, simply because it's so easily accessible. There?s something called “share-washing" that makes people waste more precisely because a product or service is shared and thus is regarded as more eco- friendly. Uber is one example of this, advertised as "a way to share rides and limit car ownership,,,and yet "it has been proven to discourage walking, bicycling, and public transportation use."Renting clothes is still preferable to buying them cheap and throwing them in the dustbin after a few wears, but we shouldn't let the availability of these services make us too satisfied. There's an even better step — that's wearing what is already in the closet.32.What is Elizabeth Cline?s attitude toward clothing rental?A. Approving.B. Unfavorable.C. Objective.D. Enthusiastic.33.The Uber example in Paragraph 6 indicates that .A. rental services are on the riseA.clothing rental will be as successful as UberB.renting clothes might waste more than expectedC.renting clothes might make people lose interest in fast fashion34.The author suggests that we should .A.give up renting any clothingB.purchase inexpensive clothesC.rent clothes rather than buy themD.make full use of clothes we've possessed35.What is the passage mainly about?A.Clothing rental is a new fashion.B.Clothing rental is retailers? preference.C.Renting clothes is not that eco-friendly.D.Renting-clothes business is in a dilemma. 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。

On a path behind the Great Museum, he noticed a large newspaper sheet lying ahead. When he picked it up, he discovered a brown leather purse underneath, rather flat, which suggested nothing was in it. He opened it up just to check and spotted a flash of green, the color of US dollars.He looked in the purse and discovered a couple of dollar bills and behind the dollars a twenty-dollar bill. Then behind the twenty there were more than ten-hundred-dollar bills. That was quite a lot of money. Tom tried to find out who owned it, but there was no indication in the purse. So Tom became a little worried about the owner. Did Tom find the owner finally? Yes, but it makes a long story and I’ll include this story in my new book HONEST MEN TODAY.。

But is "boredom" senseless? My friend Renee, who has driven cross-country with her three kids eight times, calls boredom the mother of creativity. She's not the only one who sees virtue in blank time. In a recently published paper, researchers at East Anglia University in England concluded that the trancelike (发呆的) state helps recharge the mind and is “central to learning and creativity". I wasn't trying to make my kids smarter. Neither do I dislike high-tech. But I understand too well the power of mini screens to transform our kids into zombies (木讷的人).On Day 1, our 7-year-old son announced “Texas is so boring!The next day, struggling against his seat belt, he yelled he couldn? t take much more of this. His 5-year-old sister was better at the long hours playing make-believe with the stuffed animals. On Day 3 he began to count mountains and see pandas and dolphins in distant clouds in the Texas sky. I often joined the kids in the back, where we did thumb-and-toe wrestle. With well-known mountains ahead, my husband told the children the past legends of them. u Arizona is not as boring as Texas," our son declared.I hope the trip gave kids some lazy, unstructured time to learn something about valuing the trip instead of looking for the fastest way to burn it up. I don't always make the right call as a parent but I know that in banning the small screen we made the right choice this time.24.Why did the author choose a high-tech free journey?A.Her friends are highly against it.B.She disliked advanced technology.C.She feared the passive influence of mini-screens.D.The researchers proved the harm of modern technology.25.What happened during the cross-country drive?A.Their son got worse at boredom.B.Her kids had a tough time riding in the vehicle.C.Their son relieved himself by watching animals outside.D.The time spent without screens strengthened the family bond.26.The underlined part "the fastest way" in the last paragraph refers to .A.the speediest route to finish the journeyB.the ability to observe the surroundingsC.the interest of playing games with othersD.the choice of killing time by playing digital devices27.Which is the best title for the text?A.Is Driving Long Distances Good for Children?B. A Touching Cross-country Trip of My FamilyC.What's Wrong with Boredom without High-tech?D.Creative Kids out of Parents' Reasonable ChoiceCMaybe you pop vitamins supporting brainpower, or stock up on these foods that boost brain health. But new guidelines from the American Academy of Neurology suggest there's something better you can do to keep your mind sharp.A quarter of adults aged 80 to 84 experience mild cognitive （认知的）impairment, according to AAN. To address the widespread problem, a group of neurologists and Alzheimer?s （6可尔兹海默氏症的）specialists went through existing studies to define the best ways to prevent and treat cognitive decline 一 and you might be surprised by what they included and what they didn't.Surprisingly, the AAN guidelines don ' t include any medication （药物）or dietary recommendations. The authors stress that there haven?t been any high-quality, long-term studies finding foods or medication can help cognitive decline. The guidelines also say doctors can consider suggesting cognitive training to patients with memory loss but not to rely on it. So far, the report authors say the evidence is too inconclusive to say for sure if brain exercises? like memory and attention training or problem-solving for everyday issues associated with memory loss, are beneficial. Still, these morning brain exercises can't do any harm.But there was one big discovery from the new guidelines: Exercising just twice a week could improve cognitive decline. One study showed adults with mild cognitive impairment who did resistance training twice a week scored better on executive function and associative （联想的） memory tests than a group that worked on balancing, stretching, and relaxing.What's more, another study had older adults attend either biweekly health classes or sessions of aerobics? strength training, balance exercises? and multitasking training. Six months later, the ones who'd exercised regularly scored better on cognitive health and memory tests, plus had less brain shrinkage.AAN now recommends doctors tell patients with memory loss to exercise twice a week to keep their minds sharp. This is the best time to exercise if you want to improve your memory. It looks like you've got just one more reason to clear time in your schedule for a workout —even if it's only on the weekends.28.What does the underlined word “impairment" in paragraph 2 refer to?A. Error.B. Decline.C. Development.D. Presence.29.ANN may be uncertain about .A. strength trainingB. resistance trainingC. exercises twice a weekD. morning brain exercise30.Which of the following may the author agree with?A.Daily exercises are beneficial to Alzheimer.B.The AAN guidelines attach importance to workout.C.Medication is of significance in the ANN guidelines.D.Stocking up on vitamins supporting brainpower means nothing.31.In which section of a newspaper may this text appear?A. Exercise.B. Entertainment.C. Science.D. Health.DClothing rental is a hot new industry and retailers （零售商）are demanding to get on board in hopes of attracting green shoppers.But is renting fashion actually more environmentally-friendly than buying it, and if so, how much more? Journalist and author Elizabeth Cline investigated （调查）this question and concluded that it's not as sustainable as it seems.Take shipping, for example 9 which has to go two ways if an item is rented 一- receiving and returning. Cline writes that consumer transportation has the second largest carbon footprint of our collective fashion habit after manufacturing.She writes, “An item ordered online and then returned can send out 20 kilograms of carbon each way, and increases up to 50 kilograms for rush shipping. By comparison, the carbon impact of a pair of jeans purchased from a physical store and washed and worn at home is 33. 4 kilograms, according to a 2015 study by Levi's."Then there?s the burden of washing, which has to happen for every item when it's returned, regardless of whether or not it was worn. For most rental services? this usually means drycleaning ,a high-impact and polluting process. All the rental services that Cline looked into have replaced perchloroethylene （氯乙烯），a carcinogenic （致癌的）air pollutant, still used by 70 percent of US dry cleaners, with alternatives? although these aren't great either.Lastly, Cline fears that rental services will increase our appedte for fast fashion, simply because it's so easily accessible. There?s something called “share-washing" that makes people waste more precisely because a product or service is shared and thus is regarded as more eco- friendly. Uber is one example of this, advertised as "a way to share rides and limit car ownership,,,and yet "it has been proven to discourage walking, bicycling, and public transportation use."Renting clothes is still preferable to buying them cheap and throwing them in the dustbin after a few wears, but we shouldn't let the availability of these services make us too satisfied. There's an even better step — that's wearing what is already in the closet.32.What is Elizabeth Cline?s attitude toward clothing rental?A. Approving.B. Unfavorable.C. Objective.D. Enthusiastic.33.The Uber example in Paragraph 6 indicates that .A. rental services are on the riseA.clothing rental will be as successful as UberB.renting clothes might waste more than expectedC.renting clothes might make people lose interest in fast fashion34.The author suggests that we should .A.give up renting any clothingB.purchase inexpensive clothesC.rent clothes rather than buy themD.make full use of clothes we've possessed35.What is the passage mainly about?A.Clothing rental is a new fashion.B.Clothing rental is retailers? preference.C.Renting clothes is not that eco-friendly.D.Renting-clothes business is in a dilemma. 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。

One day, when his sister was playing a song repeatedly, Sam sang along. His sister thought it was funny so she recorded it and posted the video online. The video — and Sam — became a hit. Only 8 years old at the time, he couldn’t have expected the response.“The Doctors (The television show) called and wanted me on their show so they paid for me to go to California,” says Sam, now 13, “and we got to stay in a hotel where all the movie stars stay ed.”During that visit to California, Angie Allred, Sam’s mother, had an idea about Sam writing a children’s book. Together, she and Sam wrote Opening Hearts, which tells Sam’s experience of living with a chronic (慢性的) illness.“I wrote the book to teach people to be kinder to people,” Sam says.Moreover, Sam wanted to send pillows to sick children staying in hospitals around the country to make their stay more comfortable, an idea that came from a time when he was in the hospital.“A few kind boys came in with pillows and they gave me one and it meant a lot to me that someone cared about kids in the hospital,” says Sam.Angie thought of starting a nonprofit organization to provide a way for people to contribute money to realize Sam’s ideas. She named the no nprofit Kindness for Kids.Since then, Sam has taken pillows to children staying at Providence Hospital in Anchorage.Sam’s father, Scott Allred, owns a small business that contracts (承包) shipping services with FedEx Ground. He asked the company for help.“FedEx Ground learned about Sam’s pillow project,” says Erin Truxal, manager of public relations for FedEx Ground. “We thought, ‘What a perfect way for us to get involved.’”The company provided shipping services for Sam to ship about 5,000 pillows to hospitals.Sam wants to send more pillows to all of the children’s hospitals in every state. His goal is simple: “Kids in the hospital as happy as they were before they got sick,” he says.4. We can learn from the text that Sam Allred _____.A. was a healthy boyB. was popular at an early ageC. sang the song with his sisterD. worked in his father’s company5. Opening Hearts is a book that _____.A. is a best sellerB. is about Sam’s sisterC. was published when Sam was 13D. was written by Sam and his mother6.

Honest and responsible.C. Unusual and confident.D. Friendly and brave.CAcross the world, studies have consistently found that girls perform significantly better than boys in reading. These studies show that girls typically read more frequently than boys, and have a more positive attitude toward reading.There are several reasons that help explain these gender-based differences. Parents read more with their daughters. This sends a strong and early message that books are for girls, as well as equipping girls with a significant advantage. Recent research has found even though boys read less frequently than girls, girls still receive more encouragement to read from their parents.So how can parents and educators help bridge this socially-engineered gap for boys’ reading?To improve boys’ reading performance, parents and educators may look for ways to connect boys with reading. This has led to discussion about the importance of promoting so-called “boy-friendly” books that boys supposedly “prefer”. These are typically assumed to be non-fiction works, as many people believed that boys prefer to read non-fiction.But this belief is not supported by recent research, which in fact suggests boys are more likely to choose to read fiction than non-fiction. Encouraging all boys to read non-fiction under the mistaken belief that it is their preference may actually be harmful. Fiction readers read more frequently and demonstrate faster language learning and higher language ability.Besides encouraging more fiction reading, there are a number of ways that we can help connect boys with books. Firstly, don’t assume that boys of the same age have the same interests or that their interests stay the same over time. To match boys with suitable reading material, have regular discussions about reading for pleasure in order to keep up with their interests.Schools should also provide access to libraries during lessons throughout the years of schooling. Girls visit the library in their free time more than boys, and as students move to higher grades they often have less access to libraries during class. Access to books for boys is essential to promote reading.In addition, we should keep paper books available because research shows that boys are less likely to choose to read on screens than girls. Finally we should promote reading as an enjoyablepastime by being a role model. Let your children or students see you read for pleasure.8. According to the author, what is the main cause of the difference in boys’ and girls’ readingability?A. Social factors.B. Teaching methods.C. Personal preferences.D. Psychological differences.9. Why does the author recommend that adults regularly talk to boys about reading?A. To persuade boys to read more often.B. To learn what boys are most interested in.C. To help boys improve their language ability.D. To show that adults are good reading role models.10. When should schools give students additional library access according to the author?A. Before and after class.B. At any time of the school day.C. At regular times during class.D. When they are in the lower grades.11. What is the main purpose of the text?A. To show students ways to improve their reading.B. To explain why boys are not as good at reading as girls.C. To urge governments to provide more reading resources.D. To provide strategies that can help improve boys’ reading ability.DGoogle’s new camera, called Clips, is a small, smart device. It comes with a case that has a clip (夹子)，but it’s not designed to be worn on your clothing. Most interestingly, it uses artificial intelligence to take photography out of your hands so it can capture moments on its own.This roughly 2-inch by 2-inch camera, with a three-hour battery life and Gorilla Glass for toughness, is intended for candid moments, like when a child does something cute that may happen too quickly for you to pull out your smartphone.Onboard the Clips device, it uses machine learning algorithms (计算程序) to help capturescenes. Those algorithms include face recognition. “Once it learns that there's a face you see frequently, it’ll try to get nice photos of those faces,” said Juston Payne, the device’s product manager. And they also want it to recognize facial expressions, which involved “training it to k now what happiness looks like”. The Google team also trained it to recognize what not to shoot —like when a child’s hand is over the lens, or if it is tossed in a dark purse.The only way to see the images is by connecting the camera with your phone, as it has no screen for viewing or editing.Were people concerned it could seem strange? Yes, Payne admitted. But they said they addressed that by making it obvious what it is. A green light on the front signals that it is on. Besides, unlike a camera meant to monitor your home, it is not connected to the Internet.“This product is only possible because of the way that silicon has advanced” Payne said, noting that it was only in the past year or so that they could squeeze the technology down into a device this size. Going forward, we’re likely to get more assistance from the artificial intelligence packed into our apps and gadgets.12. What is the most outstanding feature of Clips?A. It is equipped with tough glass.B. It enables easy internet access.C. It allows of hands-free photography.D. It can be worn on your clothing.13. What does the underlined word “candid”, in Paragraph 2 mean?A. briefB. touching.C. unforgettable.D. embarrassing.14. What makes Clips a reality according to Juston Payne?A. The popularity of the Internet.B. The advance in technology.C. The rise of the smartphone industry.D. The reduction in the price of lens.15. What is the best title for the text?A. A New Digital Camera from Google.B. New Devices in the Age of Apps.C. Artificial Intelligence in Everyday Life.D. An Alternative Way to Photograph.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。
