21．（6分）When was the last time you sent a postca rd? The UK’s family-owned oldest postcard firm,which has been
publishing postcards and calendars since 1880, will close this December. The reason? It says instead of penning a card,people are putting photos up on Facebook or Instagram or using WhatsApp to show friends arid family at home just how much fun they’re having.
If you get a postcard from someone who’s away somewhere, it’s as much the thought that they’ve gone through the hassle(麻烦)of choosing a postcard, working out where to get a stamp from,finding a postbox and then the postcard making that journey through to y ou. That’s the value of the postcard．But that time has gone．Brothers Charles and Harry Salmon, the fifth generation of the family to run the firm, said the popularity of social media had had a huge impact on the business. People are also tending to take shorter holidays, meaning they are likely to have arrived home long before their postcards. As a result the business was no longer viable.
“Increasingly challenging trading conditions and changes to the nature and size of the market for its publications hav e resulted in uncertainty over the future of its trade,” the brothers wrote in a letter to suppliers and newsagents.
As a result they were announcing a proposal to withdraw from publishing. The number of postcards sold each year is reported to have seen a sharp decline to about five million from 20 million just 25 years ago. But the firm said that as well as the drop in the number of postcards sent. “we have also had to consider that there are no more members of the family who wish to join the business."
1、What is the best title of the text?
A．UK’s oldest postcard firm set to close
B．Postcard industry booming in the future
C．UK's postcard firm through a tough time
D．Postcard industry needing support to survive
2、What’s the value of sending a postcard?
A．It’s a journey of love
B．It’s a symbol of sympathy
C．It’s an act of patience
D．It’s a way of passing time
3、What does the underlined word “viable" in Paragraph 3 probably mean?
A．Worth of praise
B．Possible to change
C．Short of money
D．likely to exist
4、Where does this text probably come from?
A．A business column
B．A finance report
C．A hi-tech advertisement
D．A book review
22．
（8分）The recent high-profile movie Crazy Rich Asians shows a side of Singapore that most people-not even Singaporeans —don’t get to se e. While the story is largely set in Singapore, filming took place both in the city state and neighbouring Malaysia. Attractions such as Singapore’s Marina Bay Sands and Malaysia’s heritage Cheong Fatt Sze Mansion appeal to people.
Crazy Rich Asians is by no means the only movie to be filmed in these areas. Here are five international films that you may not have known were set or filmed in Singapore or Malaysia.
1. EQUALS (2015)
In this sci-fi romance, Singapore serves as the location of an apocalyptic (世界末日的) society. Viewers can catch glimpses of the Marina Barrage, Singapore Botanic Gardens, and the spectacular Henderson Waves at Southern Ridges bridge.
2. ROGUE TRADER (1999)
Based on the true story of British investment broker Nick Leeson, it is about how he lost $2.2 billion through risky trades in Singapore and brought down Barings, Britain’s oldest merchant bank. Leeson wrote the book that the film is based on while serving a prison sentence. The movie has scenes of Rales Hotel and the Central Business District.
3. SAINT JACK (1979)
This controversial adaptation of Paul Theroux’s novel was groundbreaking in that it was the first Hollywood movie to be filmed entirely on location in Singapore — without government approval, though.
4. LUST, CAUTION (2007)
Directed by Oscar-winner Ang Lee, this spy thriller, set in Hong Kong and Shanghai during the 1930s and 1940s, is about a group of students who plan to assassinate (刺杀) an intelligence chief. Locations in Ipoh and Penang in Malaysia were used for this time period due to their prewar architecture.
5. ENTRAPMENT (1999)
This thriller shows Kuala Lumpur’s Petronas Twin Towers several times. However, the then Malaysian Prime Minister was reportedly displeased that the film showed the great landmark next to small dirty houses — in reality, they are surrounded by large, luxurious gardens.
1、What can be learned about Nick Leeson?
A．He acted in the movie ROGUE TRADER.
B．He was put into prison after his risky trade.
C．He was asked to write a book for a movie.
D．He was one of Britain’s oldest businessmen.
2、The movie LUST, CAUTION was shot in Malaysia because of ________.
A．the complex plot of the story
B．some thrilling scenes in the movie
C．some particular buildings in the country
D．the director’s preference for the country
3、What do the five international films mentioned above have in common?
A．They showed a dark side of Singapore.
B．They became Oscar winners in the end.
C．They were shot in Singapore or Malaysia.
D．They were directed by world-famous directors.
23．（8分）For many foreigners who have visited or worked in China, one of their strong impressions is that the country is very safe. Here , you can go out alone late at night to eat at a food stand without feeling nervous. Y ou can also let your younger children ride public transport all by themselves without worrying about their safety.
This year, 2018 , marks 8 special anniversary of the launching of the reform and opening up policy, which took place two score years ago in China. Over the past few decades, the country has achieved fast economic growth, while social peace and stability have been maintained(维护) to the fullest extent at the lowest cost. Of course, there are still unsolved problems. However, from the overall aspect, Chinese society remains harmonious and safe. In my eyes , this should be attributed(归于) largely to the cultural ;economic and political environment of the country.
A society can be stable and orderly only when its people can lead a prosperous(繁荣的) life. After the introduction of the reform and opening up policy, China achieved fast economic growth and significant scientific and technological progress. In the meantime, the Chinese government has taken various measures such 2s those to fight corruption, reduce poverty and promote the rule of law, in order to uphold social equity. Thanks to these efforts, the potential factors that might cause social problems have been greatly reduced.
Apart from government departments including the police and judicial(司法的) departments , the general public also contributes much to social governance. The development of information technology has created new ways of linking the police and the public. By jointly fighting crimes in such ways, the public and the police have developed an
ever-increasing level of mutual trust and positive interaction.
The safety and stability in China did not come easily. Rather; it should be attributed to the efforts made by 1.3
‘billion people. For both Chinese and foreigners living in the country, the sense of safety and security is very precious. 1、The main idea of the passage is that .
A．China has achieved fast economic growth and people are becoming rich
B．the Chinese government has taken various measures to fight social problems
C．the police and judicial departments work more effectively to maintain social stability
D．various factors contribute to the stability and safety of present China
2、In which year was the reform and opening up policy launched in China?
A．In 1968.
B．In 1978.
C．In 1988.
D．In 2008.
3、Which of the following can be concluded according to the passage?
A．Most foreigners lack a sense of safety when staying in China.
B．Government departments rather than the general public play an important role in keeping social peace and stability. C．People’s prosperous life in a country can lead to a stable and orderly society.
D．Four basic reasons are listed throughout the passage for China’s stability and safety.
4、What is the tone of the text?
A．Negative.
B．Positive.
C．Humorous.
D．Doubtful.

25．（10分）Home from the Navy, I started school at Greenvil le College in my hometown of Illinois. I’d been out of high school for four years, but my high school headmaster, Mr. Gardner, invited me to a Valentine’s day dance party at school. The thought of seeing my former teachers was exciting. So I agreed.
When Friday came, I cleaned up, dressed up and drove to the high school gym. I chatted with my teachers and approached Mr. Gardner to thank him before leaving. Just then, the band started playing and a young girl stood up to sing. One look at and I was crazy—I had never seen such a beautiful girl!
I asked Mr. Gardner who she was, and he answered, “That’s Marilyn Riley, Cut Riley’s daughter.” I was shocked to say the least. They lived just around the corner from me. I walked across the gym floor to introduce myself, “Hi, I’m
Jack Joseph.”
“I know who you are,” was her not-too-friendly response.
“Would you like to dance?” I asked. “No! I’m working,” she shot back.
“Can I call you next week for a movie date?” I asked. “No,” was her response.
For the next month I phoned, trying to set up a date. She always had the same answer: No. then one rainy afternoon in March as I was driving home after basketball practice, I saw Marilyn, walking with no umbrella, no raincoat, no hat. I pulled alongside her and asked if she needed a ride, half expecting her to say no. instead, she stepped over the roadside and sat down on the seat next to me.

第二节书面表达（满分25分）
29、Possible Version I
Recently I nude a survey on the new license number-plate restrictions which have been adopted in our city since January 1, 2018.
Many people agree that the system to some extent, has reduced the environment pollution and relieved the pressure of transportation. However, every coin has two sides. Many car owners complain that it is annoying that they are not allowed to drive their own cars, especially when something is urgent.
In my opinion, for the benefit of the public, it is worthwhile to sacrifice part of personal convenience. However, I think it will be better if that government provide more mans of public transportation for citizens and reduce the fans.
Possible Version II
In order to reduce air pollution and heavy traffic, our city has stalled to carry out the new license number-plate restrictions since January 1, 2018. I conducted a survey on it recently
Many people support the traffic control restrictions. Since the plan was put into effect, there have been few vehicles on the roads and the cities have been less crowded. More importantly, the air is cleaner and fresher. However, some people feel it a little inconvenient when they can’t use their private cars as usual.
I think the restrictions are quite necessary, and I strongly support them. Our government should improve the public transportation to satisfy the growing needs of people so that everyone can enjoy an easy life.。
