AImagine yourself on a boat looking out at the horizon and all you can see is the water meeting the sky with no land in sight and you are sailing straight ahead to meet the world. Jesse Martin does not have to imagine: he is living in it.On Dec. 7, 1998, at 17 years old, Jesse set sail from Melbourne, Australia on his boat, attempting to become the youngest person to sail alone and nonstop around the world. He sailed south of New Zealand, through the South Pacific, around South America, north on the Atlantic, back south past Africa, through the Indian Ocean and back to Melbourne. Even as a young child, Jesse had been an adventurer who traveled all over Europe and Asia with his parents. Born in Munich, Germany in 1981, he moved to Australia with his family when he was only two years old. They moved close to a rainforest in Cow Bay, about 3,500kms north of Melbourne, where they built a small house with no electricity or running water. Jesse grew up at the beach enjoying the outdoors to its fullest. At 14, he sailed for the first time with his father and brother, Beau. It was after this trip that he began to dream about sailing around the world.Jesse’s family played an important role.“I was made to believe I could do anything, although there were others that were not so encouraging or supportive” he says. “People that I looked up to, respected and trusted told me I couldn’t. Thankfully, I trusted myself. There were people that said that the boat couldn’t be ready by the time I had to leave.” However, through perseverance and belief in himself, he was able to do what many told him was impossible.On Oct.31, 1999, more than 10 months after he set sail, J esse Martin went down in history as the youngest person to sail around the world alone, nonstop and unassisted.21. By encouraging readers to imagine a sailing experience, the author wants to __________.A. show how difficult it is to be a sailorB. describe what Jesse’s sailing is likeC. show how wonderful Jesse’s life isD. descri be what a sailor’s life is like22. What can you know from paragraph 2?A. Jesse was the first person who had sailed alone around the world.B. Jesse traveled all over Europe and Asia with his parents when he was 17.C. Jesse was born in Melbourne and grew up at the beach.D. Jesse grew up in a small house with no electricity or running water.23. What made Jesse decide to sail alone around the world according to the passage?A. His childhood adventure experiences.B. His journeys to Europe.C. His love for outdoor activities.D. His first sailing trip with his family.24. What can we learn from Jesse Martin’s story?A. Life is an unusual adventure we should enjoy.B. Failure is the mother of success.C. A strong belief will make a person stronger.D. Great interest contributes to success.BThese days, young people in some English-speaking countries are sp eaking a strange language, especially when communicating on social media.Look at these words chosen by The Washington Post: “David Bowie dying is totes tradge,” and “When Cookie hugged Jamal it made me totes emosh.” Or this sentence: “BAE, let me know if you stay in tonight.” Wha t on earth do they mean? Well, “totes” is a short form of “totally”. Similarly, “tradge” means “tragic” and “emosh” means “emoti onal”. It seems that, for millennials (千禧一代) , typing in this form is not only time-saving but fashionable.As you can see, many millennial slangs(also named as e-slangs) are formed by so-called “totesing”—the systematic abbreviation (缩写) of words. The trend might have started with “totally” becoming “totes”, but it now has spread to many other English words.The origins of other millennial slangs are more complex than “totesing”. “Bae”, for examp le, has been widely used by African-Americans for years. It can be an expression of closeness with one’s romantic partner or, like “sweetheart”, for someone without romantic connection. After pop singer Pharrell used the word in his work, “bae” became mainstream.Some people might think millennial slangs lower the value of the English language, but Melbourne University linguist Rosey Billington doesn’t agree. She says when people are able to use a language in a creative way, they show that they know the language rules well enough to use words differently. Two other linguists, Lauren Spradlin and Taylor Jones, share the same view. The two analyzed hundreds of examples of totes-speak and discoveredtotesing has complex roots.It isn’t simply an adult version of baby talk, nor a clever way to minimize your word count. Rather, it is a highly organized system that relies on a speaker’s mastery of English pronunciation. It is about sounds, follows sound system of English and has strict rules.25. Why do young people like using e-slangs?A. Because they are time-consuming.B. Because they are complex.C. Because they are in fashion.D. Because they are in order.26. What’s the author’s purpose of mentioning “Bae” in Paragraph 4?A. To support tha t totesing is no baby talk.B. To explain the complex origins of millennial slangs.C. To inform people how it became mainstream.D. To analyze the usage of millennial slangs.27. Which statement may Rosey Billington agree with?A. Totes-speak requires a good command of English.B. Millennial slangs lower the value of English.C. It’s simply a clever way to reduce the word count.D. Totesing is a loosely organized system.28. What’s the best title of the passage?A. English Has Greatly ChangedB. Linguists Disapprove of TotesingC. Millennial Slangs Take the LeadD. E-slangs Catch on Among YouthCBest comic book shops for NYC kidsBLAM! POW! Festival is coming to town (Jan. 9 and 10 at the 69th Regiment Armory), with signings, panels, and miles and miles of comic books. If you’re a full-blown comics nerd(书呆子)yourself, a trip to the city’s coolest comic book stores will be a good choice as you count down to the big day.Bulletproof Comics and GamesFans will find everything from the kid-friendly Tiny Titans series to the29. In which comic book shop can you save money?A. Midtown ComicsB. Forbidden PlanetC. Bulletproof Comics and GamesD. Jim Hanley’s Universe30. If you’re interested in collectibles related to Captain America, you may go to_________.A. 840 Broadway at 13th StB.200 W 40th St between Seventh and Eighth AvesC. 2178 Nostrand Ave, Bro oklynD. 4 W 33rd St between Fifth and Sixth Aves31. What is the difference between Silver Age Comics and the other comic book shops?A. It is so famous for its cool location that many families go there by subway.B. It holds activities for families to join a video game tournament on weekends.C. You can get information about the book you want online before going there.D. You can find other locations of it on the Internet without any difficulty.DHow many times do you check your Moments or Facebook page in a day to see whether your latest post has got another “like” or “thumbs up”?Although you might be embarrassed to admit how many times you do this, don’t worry. Psychological findings have shown it’s completely normal.In fact, the pleasure we derive from getting a “like”is equal to that of eating chocolate or winning money, and we can’t help wanting more.According to the findings of the UCLA Brain Mapping Center, which observed 32 teens aged between 13 and 18, the feedback circuit (反馈回路) in the teens’brains were particularly sensitive, and the “social”and “visual”parts of their brains were active when they received “likes” on a social network. The research also showed that though the thumbs up might come from complete strangers, the good they derive from it worked equally. However, does it mean we should try our best to win as many thumbs up as possible? Not necessarily so if we know the reasons behind our desire for attention. In “Why do people desire attention”by M. Farouk Radwan, he explained several cases in which people naturally longed for attention. Radwan said people who were an only child used to being the center of attention in their house, may try to rep roduce these conditions. Feeling “overlooked and unappreciated” might also lead you to be eager for attention. Oth er times, the state of being jealous or wanting to cover your mistakes may also contribute to such longings.In fact, too much desire for attention can create anxiety, and in turn ruin your happiness even when you get it. So what can we do about it? The answer is quite simple.“If people could adopt goals not f ocused on their own self-respect but on something larger than their self, such as what they can create or contribute to others, they would be less sensitive to some of the negative effects of pursuing self-respect,” wrote psychology professor Jennifer Crocker in the Journal of Social Issues. So, perhaps the answer to our addiction to “likes” is simply to focus on something larger than ourselves — a hard, but a worthy one.32. Which of the following can replace the underlined word “derive” in Paragraph 2?A. Deliver.B. Get.C. Drive.D. Prevent.33. According to passage, which of the following statements is TRUE?A. Parts of the brain become cleverer when receiving “likes”.B. Those who lack social recognit ion may expect attention.C. “Thumbs up” from strangers can help you get more attention.D. Being eager for attention shows that you are an only child.34. What’s the author’s attitude towards people’s addiction to getting “thumbs up”?A. Critical.B. Favorable.C. Unconcerned.D. Supportive.35. We can know from the last paragraph that __________.A. focusing on one’s self-respect is quite necessary and naturalB. pursuing self-respect is completely harmful to one’s goalsC. it is helpful to set goals concerning making contributionsD. checking your Moments or Facebook page is a waste of time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。
