For each of them there are 4 choices marked A,B,C and D. Choose the best one and mark your answer on the ANSWER SHEET.Passage OneBig data can be defined as information that is too big or complex to be contained or processed by any one machine or person.As a student at the University of Sussex,Julian Dailly had two majors—English andphilosophy. When he completed his studies,Dailly wondered how he could ever earn a living in a world filled with machines and technology. Now,he is part of the big data industry that includes Google and Facebook.Dailly's research company,Morar Consulting,started three years ago with five employees. The company's earnings have increased by 25% each year. It now employs 90 people.“What we do here is we try to discover what's meaningful for people and link that to their economic behavior.”Dailly said.He noted the importance of working with people with different skills.“We have people from traditional research background,in addition to some in social sciences,economics,people from tech backgrounds,and sales people.”Dailly said.Companies like Dailly's employ recent college graduates. The industry profits from the idea of these young man and women. New forms of data also make it possible for some observers to predict the future. They are more valuable to companies than the traditional forms of data recording or reporting.“We have access to the core information inside people's heads.”Dailly said.“They tell you what peoples are going to do as opposed to what they've done. That helps people take proper action in advance. This makes it much more useful for strategy.”Julian Dailly dismissed concerns that computers have finally taken control of our daily lives.“Some may worry that humans will be allowed to be replaced by machines. I think it's a fantasy.”16.Dailly has and education background of .A. engineeringB. artsC. sciencesD. business17.Dailly's company focuses on businesses in .A. marketing strategyB. machine sellingC. staff trainingD. big data research18.The company's staff is characterized by all the following EXCEPT .A. fresh ideasB. young ageC. mixed education backgroundsD. rich experience in the field19.The company is aimed at making use of the information to help people .A. take predictive actionB. remember the pastC. learn from each otherD. stick to the tradition20.According to Dailly,the idea that human may be replaced by machines .A. is a wise warningB. is pure imaginationC. may come trueD. needs further studyA new record for the oldest woman to run a marathon has been set,but it may not stand for more than a year. Harriette Thompson,92,said that she hasn't ruled out running the Rock ‘n’Roll Marathon in San Diego again next year. Harriette finished in 7 hours,24 minutes,36 seconds,the BBC reports,coming close to the over-90 record of 7hours,7 minutes,and 42 seconds she set in 2014,despite having a very difficult year between marathons.“I couldn't train very well because my husband was very ill and I had to be with him for some time,and then when he died in January I had some treatments on my leg,”Thompson,who was in her 70s when she ran her first marathon,tells the AP. “I was just really thrilled that I could finish today.”At 92 years and 65 days old,Thompson is 46 days older than Gladys Burrill was when Burrill finished the 2010 Honolulu Marathon.“I can't believe I made it,”Thompson tells the Charlotte Observer.“I was really tired at one point. Around Mile 21,I was going up a hill and it was like a mountain,and I was thinking,‘This is sort of crazy at my age.I can't do it.’But then I felt better coming down the hill. And my son Brenny kept feeding me all these wonderful carbohydrates(碳水化合物) that kept me going.”Thompson—whose parents,three brothers,and husband all died of cancer—tells the Observer that the San Diego marathon's fundraising for the Leukemia(白血病) Society is what inspired her to run and may even bring her back again next year.21.What does Thompson say about the San Diego marathon next year?A. She may not be able to be there.B. She hasn't thought about it.C. She is sure to take part in it.D. She is likely to run again.22.When did Thompson set her first over-90 marathon record?A. In 2010.B. In 2012.C. In 2014.D. In 2016.23.What did Thompson mainly do in that difficult year?A. She took care of her husband.B. She hurt her leg and had to rest.C. She received some new training.D.

Setting her son a good example.B. Setting a new marathon records.C. Raising money for cancer treatment.D. Living up her own promise.Before the grass has thickened on the roadsides and leaves have started growing on the trees is a perfect time to look around and see just how dirty Britain has become. The pavements are stained with chewing gum and the ditches are full of discarded fast food packets. Years ago I remember traveling abroad and being saddened by the plastic bags and discarded bottles. Nowadays,Britain seems to look at least as bad. What has gone wrong? The problem is that the rubbish created by our increasingly mobile lives last a lot longer than before. If it is not cleared up and properly thrown away,it stays in the undergrowth(下层灌木) for years.It is estimated that 10 billion plastic bags have been given to shoppers. These will take anything from 100 to 1000 years to rot. However,it is not as if there is no solution to this. A few years ago,the Irish government introduced a tax on non-recyclable carrier bags and in three months reduced their use by 90%. When he was a minister,Michael Meacher attempted to introduce a similar arrangement in Britain. The plastic industry protested,of course. However,they need not have bothered;the idea was killed before it could draw breath,leaving supermarkets free to give away plastic bags.What is clearly necessary right now is some sort of combined action,both individual and collective,before it is too late. The alternative is to continue sliding downhill until we have a country that looks like a vast rubbish tip. We may well be at the tipping point. Yet we know that people respond to their environment. If things around them clean and tidy,people behave cleanly and tidily. If they are surrounded by rubbish,they behave like rubbish. Now,much of Britain looks pretty dirty. What will it look like in five years?26.What might be the best title for this passage?A. Plastic BagsB. Environment ProtectionC. Dirty BritainD. Rubbish Disposal27.The plastics industry in Britain protested because .A. a tax was proposed on non-recyclable carrier bagsB. supermarkets no longer gave away plastic bagsC. they were blamed for causing plastic pollutionD. the government did not support them28.The expression “sliding downhill”(Para.4) probably means“”.A. working hard to reduce rubbishB. producing more plastic bagsC. encouraging people to use plastic bagsD. making things worse by taking no action29.Which of the following best describes the author's outlook on the environment?A. Optimistic.B. Confused.C. Concerned.D. Indifferent.30.The purpose of the article is to .A. encourage the public to take action against rubbishB. discourage people from supporting the plastic industryC. call on the government to protect the environmentD. encourage supermarkets to give away recyclable bagsPassage FourThose who work in the Netherlands often feel that a lot of time is wasted in discussions that lead to nothing. There are often meetings with documents,an agenda and a chairmen. All those present will have their say,after which their remarks are discussed.He who decides to skip a meeting though he has nothing more urgent to attend to,will find it unwise. The interacting that takes place during a meeting is very important for the general process. He who does not appear is saying that he does not think the subject is sufficiently important,or that the apparently does not take his colleagues seriously. Furthermore,he might miss some of the essential information that may become evident during the meeting. Those who are present show an interest in the problems of their colleagues. They supply questions,rather than commands,and thus declare themselves “co-responsible”. The Dutch,in their final conclusions,like to use such metaphors as “We are all in one line” or “Our noses are pointing in the same direction again”.If you present a decision,you will find that everyone has something to say about it and has questions to ask. This is why the Dutch will not be quick to present something as the only correct solution. The advantage to this approach is that such a meeting will often lead to genuine suggestions for improvement on certain aspects of a plan. As a result,the plan will be a joint approach.This time-consuming and seemingly useless process helps colleagues become a team. The amount of time that is lost around the table is more than what made up for inefficiency,once everyone goes back to work. Statistics show Dutch employees are among the world leaders when it comes to work productivity.31.According to Paragraph 1,meetings in Dutch companies seem to .A. be held usually for important issuesB. waste a lot of time in fruitless discussionsC. enable employees to know each other betterD. be good occasions for employees to show their talent32.To Dutch employees,one who is absent from a meeting .A. does not take his colleagues seriouslyB. may have something more urgent to doC. does not miss much critical informationD. may have nothing to say at the meeting33.According to Paragraph 3,why can't Dutch employees come to a quick decision?A. People are constantly in dispute.B. An idea usually undergoes a full discussion.C. Suggestions often lead nowhere.D. People often forget the aims of meeting.34.What does the last paragraph tell us?A. Many leaders in the world are Dutch.B. Dutch employees are highly productive.C. Dutch companies are the most successful in the world.D. Dutch employees work hardest in the world.35.The author's attitude towards the Dutch meeting is quite .A. unclearB. negativeC. positiveD. neutralPart Ⅲ Vocabulary and Structure(20 points)Directions:There are 40 incomplete sentences in this part.

It is reached by a delightful road that drops down 700 meters over two huge "steps" of rock to the sea.Tourists go down to Apollonia in the afternoon, after they have spent the morning in Cyrene. Both places were cities long ago, and they are full of interesting and beautiful ruins. There is more to be seen in Cyrene -- on the ground, you understand. If you want to know the excitement of an underwater city, Apollonia is the place.Some ruins of Apollonia are on the mainland. Some are on an island a thousand meters from the short. The rest now lie between, under eight or ten meters of water. The sea is warm, seldom rough. It is often almost as clear as glass.On a still day, then, swim out towards the island. Swim under water as much as you can, with your eyes open. Look down.First you see a street, with houses and shops on both sides. Their roofs have fallen in, but the walls are standing. Some shops have a big stone table -- a counter perhaps -- and stone shelves. At the end of this street you come to a square. It has a wide pavement all around, and some buildings open directly on to the pavement. Were they cafes Did the waiters put tables and chairs on the pavement in summer long agoOver two thousand years ago the king of Egypt visited the city. He brought his daughter Cleopatra with him. She was ten years old at the time, and her father built a huge swimming bath for her. You can still see Cleopatra's Bath, behind the cafes in the square. And you will not be surprised to hear that it is still full of water16. How far is the underwater city Apollonia away from CyreneA About 16 kilometers.B About 1,000 kilometers.C About 700 kilometers.D About 8 to 10 kilometers.17. What do we learn from the passageA Cyrene's underwater sights are very interesting.B Apollonia's underwater ruins make the tourists excited.C The underwater city has only one part.D The ruins of the underwater city are all on an island.18. What did the king of Egypt do when he visited the city with isten-year-old daughterA He built a small, well-equipped bath for his daughter.B He built a large square for his daughter to play.C He built many cafes in the square.D He built a huge swimming bath for his daughter.19. What did the author suggest that you visit ApolloniaA Drop two "steps" of rock to the sea.B Go along the beach.C Swim under water.D Swim out towards the island.20. The author says that "Cleopatra's Bath is still full of water" because ______.A it's still open to the tourists to take a bathB it's under about nine meters of waterC it's too huge to be full of waterD it's big enough to be a swimming poolQuestions 21 to 25 are based on the following passage.Passage TwoMany American college and university students live in university residence halls. These halls are popularly called "dorms." Residence halls may offer various types of living accommodations. There are single rooms, in which a student lives alone but there probably are a good many more double rooms, which two students share. Some dorms have sets of rooms, where small groups of students have separate bedrooms but share a bathroom and maybe a study room.There are usually a number of conveniences available for those living in university residence halls. Most have washing machines and clothes dryers for use by the residents. Many dorms have kitchens where students can prepare light meals. Residence halls generally provide not only room and board but public rooms and recreational facilities娱乐设施and sometimes study rooms for their use.If you live in a dormitory you need to know what the rules and regulations are. Meals usually are served at only certain hours, and you must be there at those hours if you expect to eat. There may be only certain hours when visitors may come, or they may be limited to certain areas of the dormitory. Often cooking in bedrooms is prohibited禁止, and the use of certain pieces of electrical equipment such as coffee pots or hair dryers may be limited. Living in a residence hall carries certain obligation义务. You have to be considerate of others, especially during study hours. Telephone calls and visits by friends should be short. You have to cooperate in keeping the room as neat as possible. It is sometimes hard to be tolerant of another person's habits that may differ from your own.21. Residence halls in American universities provide ______.A single rooms shared by two students.B apartments for small groups of students.C double rooms for two students.D separate rooms with a common bathroom.22. Living in university halls is convenient because ______.A meals are served at any timeB most halls provide various facilitiesC public rooms are available for visitorsD all have study rooms for their own use23.

What must you learn to be tolerant of if you live in a dormitoryA Your roommate's telephone calls.B Habits that may differ from your own.C Visits by your roommate's friends.D Roommates who are inconsiderate.25. Living in a residence hall you have to ______.A do your best to keep the room cleanB form a habit of other'sC have your phone calls in your roomD study hard during study hoursQuestions 26 to 30 are based on the following passage.Passage ThreeWhat is a good listener Students who feel they are say it is because they pay attention; remember what the person says; and ask questions based on what the other has said; or it is because they like people and are interested in them. They feel they are poor listeners when they think about something else while the other is talking or when they're tired, or not interested in what she or he is talking about.In fact, there are a variety of ways to listen, just as there are a variety of ways to say something. Human beings are complex and concealing. Often we don't say what we want to say, or say exactly the opposite of what we want to say. Sometimes, we aren't honest or direct with another because we think we don't have the right or are afraid of what will happen if we are. The body "talks", too, sometimes more honestly than the tongue.These different ways of talking need different ways of listening. To keep the seesaw going in conversations and in relationships, we need to understand and use these different ways, especially if our goal is to be a caring, thoughtful person. By knowing how to listen in various ways, you can be accurate in picking up messages no matter how they are masked or distorted变形了的 or how they are delivered. Some messages are heard just by listening silently; some, by holding a hand or giving a hug拥抱. But to be able to respond accurately, you need to hear accurately.Most people listen only with their ears. Too few listen with their hearts as well as their ears, listening to the other's, sharing of his or her hopes, joys, fears.26. According to the passage, listening only with ears may happen to us when ______.A we are emotionally tiredB we are physically disabledC we are so interested in the topicD we are asked many questions27. Which of the following is NOT TRUE about a good listenerA He can feel what the speaker thinks.B He can share the speaker's feeling.C He can remember what the speaker says.D He can listen with his heart.28. The purpose in writing the second paragraph is to ______.A demonstrate why we are not honest in communicationB explain how our body “talks”C illustrate ways used by people in speakingD show that understanding one's speech is not an easy job29. The word "seesaw" Line 1, Para. 3 probably means ______.A communicationB purposeC understandingD friendship30. According to the passage our failure to give proper response to thespeaker is probably because ______.A we misunderstand what he saysB we don't like the speakerC he speaks in a distorted wayD he speaks in a different languageQuestions 31 to 35 are based on the following passage.Passage FourSuperstition 迷信 is a difficult question. We cannot quite say that superstition in Britain is dead. Its history is too long and too recent for that, and indeed you will find many remains of it in modem Britain. But they are only connected chiefly with vague beliefs of good luck and bad luck. It is unlucky, for instance, to walk under a ladder, or to spill salt, or break a mirror, or to have anything to do with number 13; whereas a horseshoe brings good luck, and people jokingly "touch wood" to prevent the return of a past misfortune. There are still many strange country remedies against sickness which are obviously superstitions. Most of all, there is still a surprising amount of interest in fortune-telling, e.g. in the form of "horoscopes" 占星术in newspapers and women's magazines-though for most people this is nothing more than an amusement, which they may well be slightly ashamed of.But the real measure of superstition is fear. In this sense there is no superstition in Britain. British people as a whole do not believe in evil influences or evil spirits. Sickness and misfortune do not come from devils, but are the result of chance or foolishness or inefficiency. Devils belong only to history books. Devils exist only in the mind -- usually the minds of others. Magic is simply an interesting word for performing tricks.Fairies童话故事中的仙女 are pretty little winged creatures in "fairy stories" for children and any adult who believed in fairies or magic or devils would be considered slightly mad. Thus, modern Britain has largely emerged from superstition, and the future seems to consist not of devils, but of matter and machines.31. The author's purpose in writing this passage is to ______.A criticize British people's superstitious beliefsB show British people's attitudes towards superstitious beliefs todayC describe various superstitious beliefs still practiced in modern BritainD emphasize the influence of superstition upon the British people32. According to the remaining superstitious beliefs in Britain, all thefollowing are concerned with bad luck except ______.A break a mirrorB walk under a ladderC touch woodD pour salt out33. For most British people today, a horoscope column in newspapers is ______.A just for funB for making moneyC only for womenD for fortune-telling34. In the future, British people will ______.A become slaves of machinesB remove fairies from their lifeC get rid of their beliefs of GodD have no superstitious beliefs35. The author's attitude towards the changing of superstition-belief is ______.A optimisticB pessimisticC criticalD neutralPart III Vocabulary and Structure 25 minutesDirections:There are 40 incomplete sentences in this part.

GoodbyePart II Reading Comprehension (40points)Directions: There are 4 passages in this part. Each passage is followed by 5 questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are 4 choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the best one and mark your answer on the ANSWER SHEET.Passage OneThe comfort zone is our living, work, and social environments that we have grown accustomed to. It determines the type of friends we make or people we associate with. It determines a life style we accept or reject.Young people are very adaptable; they can adjust to changing comfort zones with ease. They can socialize with homeless people in the morning and be equally at ease at a formal banquet in the evening. As we age,the ability to adapt to wide-ranging comfort zones becomes moredifficult. Social prejudice narrows the comfort zone range. The comfort zone can be a decision making tool.Comfort zones are directly related to our dreams or goals, which is associated withdaydreaming and then they work their way into reality.The moreclearly and vividly we fantasize our dream, the stronger and more realthe pictures on the subconscious level will become. Once oursubconscious accepts this image and its expectation, it will go to work, searching for a way to bring it into reality. If we feel that thesethings are too good for us, we will find ways to fail. If, however, we intentionally imagine the change we want, build an expectation of the changeE卷第 3 页共 13 页mentally and emotionally, and we will find ways to acquire dream and, when mentally ready, it will arrive faster than we ever thought possible.For some people, problems, suffering, poverty, bad breaks are their comfort zone. They find comfort in finding fault and complaining about their misfortune. The same is true for businesses. Management andworkers have grown used to seeing things go wrong and expect them too.Management finds comfort in finding fault with workers and workers and vice versa.Note: If the comfort zone we are seeking is beyond our current income, then, we need to develop a service that has greater value than our current one. Money, power and influence are not goals; they are rewards ONLY for personal achievement.16.As one grows older, ______.A. one’s comfort zone becomes narrowerB. one finds comfort zone more easilyC. one becomes more sympatheticD. one behaves better in social gathering17. What does “be discontent with our current comfort zone” (Para.3) mean?A. Be prepared to realize our dreams.B. Keep dreaming of unrealistic goals.C. Picture our dreams clearly and vividly.D. Be dissatisfied with our present life.18. According to the author, daydreaming ______.A. requires a clear goal in mindB. does little good to the pursuit of happinessC. prepares us for meaningful changes in lifeD. wastes our time and energy19. It can be inferred from Paragraph 4 that ______.A. comfort zone may lead to conflictsB. comfort zone is not necessarily positiveC. people tend to find fault with themselvesD. survival is hard in business circle20. By seeking a better comfort zone, people aim to ______.A. make greater achievingB. make more moneyC. be more influentialD. gain greater powerPassage TwoEntire cultures operate on elaborate systems of indirectness. For example, I discovered in a small research project that most Greeks assumed that a wife who asked , “Would you like to go to the party?” was hinting that she wanted to go. They felt that she wouldn’t bring it up if shedidn’t want to go. Furthermore, they felt, she would not state her preference directly because that would sound like a demand. Indirectness was the appropriate means for communicating herE卷第 4 页共 13 页preference.Japanese culture has developed indirectness to a fine art. For example, a Japanese professor, Harumi Befu, explains the delicate exchange of indirectness required by a simple invitation to lunch. When his friend extended the invitation, Befu first had to determine whetherit was meant literally or just a ritual, much as an American might say, “We’ll have to have you over for dinnersome time” but would not expect you to turn up at the door. Having decided the invitation was meant literally and having accepted, Befu was then asked what she would like to eat. Following custom, he said anything would do, but his friend, also following custom, pressed him to specify. Host and guest repeated this exchange an appropriate number of times, until Befu thought it polite to answer the question --- polite --- by saying that tea over rice would be fine. When he arrived for lunch, he was indeed served tea over rice --- as the last course of a luxurious meal. Befu was not surprised by the feast, because he knew that custom required it. Had he been given what he askedfor, he would have been insulted. But custom also required that he make a great show of being surprised.21. According to Paragraph 1, Greeks believe that women ______.A. Would like to give demandsB. Use more questions than statementsC. Carefully weave their wishes into questionsD. Are afraid of expressing personal opinions22. On receiving a lunch invitation, Befu first has to ______.A. decide whether to accept it or notB. figure out what he would like to eatC. pretend to show great surpriseD. judge whether the invitation is serious23. Why would Befu ask for tea over rice?A. To be polite by making things easy.B. It is his favorite.C. To avoid being insulted.D. To end the conversation quickly.24. Which of the following statements is true?A. Befu was served exactly what he had asked for.B. It would be impolite to serve a simple lunch.C. Befu was surprised by the last course for lunch.D. Befu acted like he enjoyed his meal a lot.25. What is the main idea of the passage?A. Greeks and Japanese are well known for being indirect.B. Indirectness is evident in many cultures.C. Meals reveal a lot about a particular culture.D. People sometimes tell lies with good intention.E卷第 5 页共 13 页Passage ThreeIn western culture, an engagement begins with “yes” to a simple question: “Will you marry me?” These heart-stopping words often come with a beautiful diamond ring. The man making the proposal may get down on one knee. In fact, men have relied on this simple, romantic method of proposing marriage for years.Today, this is no longer true for everyone. Consider how Justin Firestone proposed to Natalie Abreu.The couple took a helicopter tourover the black sands of Honomanu Bay, Hawaii. Suddenly Abreu saw"Will you marry me Natalie?" spelled out below with coconuts. Her answer was an astonished "Yes!"Firestone’s proposal took weeks of planning and help fr om a professional.But for men like him, the effort put into the proposal was worth it. Many guys want to show how serious they are about marriage through an impressive proposal. Some even want to givetheir future brides Public proposals-- at sports games, concerts and other events --are common. But some men don’t settlefor their proposal scrolling(滚动) across a big screen before thousands. Millions saw Joe Uva’s proposal on a reality TV show. His girlfriend, Laura O’Donnell, walked into an office and saw friends and family holding flowers. With the cameras rolling, Uva walked out from among them to propose. O’Donnell said yes, to the relief of Uva and his audience.Other men have chosen proposals that reflect the couple’s unique relationship. Such proposals take place at a favorite restaurant or involve a shared hobby. Bernie Peng, for example, programs video games, and Tammy Li enjoys playing them. When Peng proposed to Li, he made a small change in her favorite game. When she played it, a ring and marriage proposal appeared. They recently got married!These men were confident they would get the answer they wanted. but that’s not the point:Creative proposals leave memories to be cherished.26. What will men do in a traditional proposal?A. Use beautiful words.B. Buy diamonds in advance.C. Plan it for months.D. Save a lot of money.27. Which of the following statements is true?A. Firestone didn’t speak out the proposal.B. Firestone planned the proposal by himself.C. Natalie had expected the proposal on their trip.D. Firestone’s proposal was inexpensive.28. What does “to brag about” (Para.3) probably mean?A. To talk about with pride.B. To remember someone.C. To think about seriously.D. To look around carefully.29. Which of the proposals was witnessed by the largest number of people?E卷第 6 页共 13 页A. Firestone’s.B. Abreu’s.C. Joe Uva’s.D. Peng’s.30. What is the author’s opinion towards creative proposals?A.

Each o f the passages is followed by 5questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are 4 choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the best one and mark your answer on the ANSWER SHEET. Passage OneA few centuries ago, people looked at the birds and wondered what it would be like to fly like them. There were stories of heroes who glued bird feathers on their arms and flew up into the sky. About 500 years ago, some people dreamed a different dream. Instead of flying up to the sky, they dreamed of falling from the sky!In the 15th century, Italian inventors designed a cone-shaped(锥形) device that was supposed to bring a man down safely from a great height. The operator held on to a handle with a straps strapped to his waist. This was the first known design for a parachute (降落伞).Even the great inventor Leonardo da Vinci sketched a type of parachute. His parachute design was in the shape ofpyramid(金字塔). Other inventors also sketched their own designs for a parachute. Unfortunately, these were only designs on paper and no one tested them.A Croatian inventor named Fausto Veranzio looked at Leonardo da Vinci’s parachute design and replaced the pyramid shape with one that looked like a sail from a ship. When Veranzio was 65years old, he fell ill. Thinking he would not live longer, he decided to try out his parachute invention. He built his parachute using wood and cloth. Straping his invention to his waist, he jumped off the tall bell tower in his city. He landed safely! He was supposedly the first man to successfully use a parachute. However, some other people thought this story was not true. If that was the case, then the first person to successfully use a parachute would go to a Frenchman named Louis-Sebastien Lenormand in 1783.16. The first known parachute was designed by ______.A. FrenchmanB. ItalianC. CroatiansD. Englishmen17. Leonardo da Vinci’s parachute was shaped like a ______.A. coneB. featherC. pyramidD. sail18. Which of the following is about Fausto Veranzio is trueA. He copied da Vinci’s parachu te design.B. He made his parachute with feather and wood.C. He experimented with his parachute many times.D. He decided to try his parachute after he was seriously ill.19. As for the first man who successfully used a parachute,______.A. it was said to be Leonardo da VinciB. we know for sure he was VeranzioC. there were some historical recordsD. we don’t know for sure yet20. The passage is mainly about ______.A. the origin of the parachuteB.The dreams of flying and fallingC. the courage of dropping from the skyD. the application of parachute inventionPassage TwoOut of all the students who enroll in a massive open online course(MOOC), only about 5 percent complete the course and receive a certificate accomplishment. This statistic is often cited as evidence that MOOCs are fatally flawed(有缺陷的)and offer little educational value to most students. Yet more than 80 percent of students who fill out a post-course survey say they met their primary objective. How do we look at these two facts We’re used to focusing on completion rat es in higher education, but they’re not the only-or even the most meaningful –indicator of engagement in open online courses. With no cost to enroll, no punishment for dropping out, and littlereward for actually earning a certificate, MOOCs are fundamentally different from traditional calssess –and students use them in fundamentally different ways.Data from more than 1.8 million students erolled in 36 MOOCs offered by the University of Pennsylvania show that students treat MOOCs like a buffet (自助餐), sampling the material according to their interests and career goals. Some are curious about the subject matter and just watch one or two video lectures; others use the discussion forums to connect with their intellectual peers around the world. Of all enrolled students, nearly 60 percent watch at least one vedio, complete at least one assignment, or post at least once in a forum.So focusing on the tiny fraction of students who complete a MOCC is misguided.The more important number is the 60 percent engagement rate. Students may not finish a MOOC with a certificate of accomplishment, but the courses nonetheless meet the educational goals of millions.21. What do we learn about MOOCs from Para.1A. There seems to be conflicting statistics about MOOCs.B. It turns out that MOOCs have failed people’s expectations.C. Most students find it hard to judge the value of MOOcs.D. The educational value of MOOCs is well acknowledged.22. In Para.2, the author stresses ______.A. the primary objective of MOOC studentsB. the significance of competion rates in educationC. the strengths and weakness of open online coursesD. the differences between MOOCc and trditional classes23. According to Para. 3, students choose MOOCs for thefollowing reasons EXCEPT ______.A. earning a certificateB. improving job-related skillsC. meeting their interest in the subjectsD. exchanging ideas with students worldwide24. The sentence “students treat MOOCs as a buffet” (Para.3)______.A. emphasizes the core value of MOCCsB. demonstrates the daily operation of MOOCsC. indicates students are free to choose MOOC resourcesD. explains what students learn from MOOC courses25. What is the author’s attitude toward MOOCsA. Critical.B. Supportive.C. Indifferent.D. Neutral.Passage ThreeWhether you are hiking through the magnificent redwoods of Northern California, sleeping under the brilliant stars of the Texas sky or watching the sun rise across the rocky cliffs of Maine, expecting the outdoor world can be inspiring, thrilling, and deeply satisfying. And one of the best ways to enjoy the abundant gifts of the natural world is simple, inexpensive, and available to almost every one. Let’s go camping.When you camp, you create a “home away from home” in the f resh air. You don’t need a lot of fency equipment to enjoy camping. What you need is simply a tent large enough for your family. Practice setting up the tent at home to make sure you are familiar with the process before you go camping.Once you find a good site, it’s time to set up tent. Your first job is to set up your tent. Remove all sticks and rocks from the area. Spread a tarp (防水帆布) over the area where your tent will sit. Set up the tent and be sure to stake it down firmly, even if the weather is mild. Otherwise, strong wind can blow your tent away.Next, you’ll need some firewood for a campfire. If gathering wood is illegal at your campground, you must buy it at the camp store. If gathering dead wood is permitted, go on a firewood-hunting journey and bring in a good supply of wood for your campsite, pile the wood safely away from the campfire ring and where no one will trip over the wood or hurt his or her legs on sharp branches.Being a responsible camper requires that you follow the rules of the campground. Do not burn food or plastic in your campfire. Make sure that you leave your campsite in good condition for the next campers. Just before leaving the site, make a final check to be certain that your campfire is completely out. Pour water on the ashes just to be safe!26. As is suggested by the aurhor, you should practice setting up your tent ______.A. before the weather turns badB. before your first camping upC. after having selected your campsiteD. once you have decided where to go27. What is the first thing you should do after choosing a campsiteA. Gather firewood.B. Spread a tarp on the ground.C. Set up the tent.D. Remove sticks and rocks from the tent area.28. You can gather firewood only ______.A. after you are sure that it is permittedB. after you are certain that no one will get hurtC. if there is no camp store nearbyD. if firewood is out of stock in a camp store29. The last thing you should do before leaving your campsiteis ______.A. burn all the trashB. clean the campsiteC. pour water on the ashesD. collect all the rubbish30. The passage is mainly about ______.A. safety measures a camper should takeB. problems you may face as a camperC. what you need to know about campingD. what you need to bring along for campingPassage FourEvery country has secret services to help protect it against serious threats from terrorists, major criminals or even from other countries. People who threaten to harm a country always plot in secret, so the intelligence agencies have to work in secret to find out what is being planned before it happens, sothat it can be prevented. They do that in many different ways – by secretly listening to their targets talking on the phone, by planting microphongs to overhear meetings, by watching the targets as they move from place to place and by recruiting some of the targets to act as double agents to report on what is going on.For most of my career I worked in one of the UK’s threeintelligence services, MIS, the domestic security service. I first joined in the 1970s, in the middle of the Gold War, when the war was divided into two armed camps, the Soviet Union(苏联) and its allies on the one side and Western Europe, America and their allies on the other. The Gold War never became a fighting war. It was an intelligence war, with intelligence officers from both sides trying to find out what the other side was doing, what kind of weapons they had, when and if they might start a war and what their plans were. Both sides were secretly working in each othe r’s countries.Nowadays one of the biggest threats to the world, comes from terrorists. Intelligence officers from many differenct countries are working together to find out who they are., where they are and what they are planning. Today’s MIS officers get their intelligence in much the same way as we did during the Gold War, but their task is even more difficult and urgent because most terrorists want to kill people. Many terrorist attacks that are planned and prepared never happen, and we never know anything about them because the intelligence services find them out and prevent them.31. What is the first paragraph mainly aboutA. The tasks of intelligence agencies.B. The contributions of intelligence agencies.C. The equipment used by intelligence agents.D. The recruitment of intelligence agents.32. The biggest security threats for Britain in the 1970s were from ______.A. international terroristsB. the Soviet Union and its alliesC. major criminals within the countryD. agents working for both camps33. What is true about the Gold WarA. Both camps were planning to start a war.B. It was a war fought with advanced weapons.C. No fierce clash broke out during the period.D. It is not regarded as an intelligence war.34. MIS officers’ task is more urgent today in that ______.A. terrorists are more difficult to find than spiesB. most terrorist attacks are aimed at killing peopleC. terrorist attacks happen more frequently than beforeD. it takes only a little time to prepare a terrorist attack35. The best title for the passage might be “ ______ ”.A. Ways of Gathering IntelligenceB. National Defense Against All ThreatsC. Which Is More Threatening: Terrorists Or SpiesD. What We Do As Intelligence OfficersPart III Vocabulary and Structure (20 points)Directions: T here are 40 incomplete sentences in this section.For each sentence there are 4 choices marked A,B,C and D.

For each of them . there are 4 choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose thebest one and mark your answer on the ANSWER SHEET with a single line through the center.Passage oneM ichael Phelps has already been considered by some as the greatest all-around competitor inthe history of his sport. At the 2004 U.S. Trials, Phelps qualified for Athens in six individual eventsacross every possible stroke. He finally earned five titles of Olympic champion. Should Phelpsmatch Mark Spitz ’s record in Athens or Beijing in 2008, he will earn a$1 million bonus fromhis sponsor. Michael Phelps was born to June 30, 1985. His father was a good athlete, and passedhis ability on to his kids.Michael ’ s coach told Michaelc’ s mother that her son was a rare telent-limbed.Longwith bighands and feet, he took to instruction very well, loved to work hard and never seemed nervous iscompetition. By all accounts, his frame is perfect for a swimmer. His big hands and feet are likepaddles in the water. The butterfly is his signature stroke, but he’ s shown the ability to domin any event.In 1999,Michael broke a record in the 200-meter butterfly for the 20-year-old age group at thJunior Nationals.At 15, Michael became the youngest swimmer to compete Sydney Olympics forthe U.S.in 68 years. In an astonishing performance, he medaled six times and set five worldrecords. Michael won the 200-meter butterfly with a new world mark, and also turned in recordtimes in the 100-meter butterfly and 200-meter individual medley (混合泳 )— doing so on thesame day, which was a first in swimming history.Outside of his swimming career,Michael was a normal teenager.He didn’ t like getting out of the bed in the morning; but refused to slow down once his day began.Michael has his sights set onmore than Olympic glory.He wants to transform his sport the way other great athletes like MichaelJordan and Tiger Woods have.16.Which of the following is the biggest achievement of Michael Phelps so far?A. An all-around competitor in the history of swimming.B. Breaking of a record in the 200-meter butterfly.C. Six individual events across every possible stroke.D. Five titles of Olympic champion.17.

Michael Phelps turned to be the youngest American swimmer_______.A. in 1999, when he broke a record in the 200-meter butterflyB. in 2004,when he attended Athens 2004C. in 2000, when he attended Sydney OlympicsD. in an astonishing performance at home in the U.S.19. ________hating to get out of his bed in the morning, Michae l Phelps wouldn’ t slow downonce his day began.A.

The appeal of the interview has everything to do with the humanfactor.Most people believe that they are a reasonable judge of character and trust theirinstinctive feeling. We might use some kind of test to aid the selection process, but we usuallypick a candidate who interviews well, has good qualifications and impressive work record.But suppose the candi date lies or is less than completely honest.“ This can be a serious problem for employers” , explains Alan Conrad, Chief Executive at Optimus Recruiment.most difficult liars to find are those who tell half- truths rather than complete lies.” Researchshows that up to 75 percent of resumes are inaccurate on purpose. The most common practiceis omission.Interviewer should therefore concentrate on areas of uncertainy such as gaps betweenperiods of employment and job descriptions that seem strange.ng on these“areasFocusiwillforce candidates to tell the truth or become increasingly dishonest. This is usually when peoplesignal their anxiety by their body language. Sweat on the upper lip, false smiles and nervoushand movements all indicate discomfort.”Conrad does not suggest an aggressive policy-style interview technique , but insists thatclose inspection of a resume is absolutely essential. Only by asking the right questions can youconfirm the suitability of the candidate or put pressure on those who are being less thancompletely honest.21.The best title of this passage can be ___________.A.How to Catch Out the Dishonest CandidateB.How to Find a Job by TricksC.Disadvantages of Job InterviewsD.Advantages of Job Interviews22.The liars hard to recognize are those who tell___________.A. complete truthsB. complete liesC. partial truthsD. mainly truths23.How were the job applicants able to lie without being detected?A.By leaving out some necessary informationB.By providing more information than needed.C.By using their body language.D.By telling some unbelievable lies.24.In order to pick up a qualified and an honest candidate, Conrad suggests that we _____.A. examine the resumes carefullyB. inspect the candidates aggressivelyC. correct the resumes intentionallypare one’s resume with others ’25.What is the author ’s attitude towards job interviews?A. Most objectiveB. Too subjective.C. SuspiciousD. Credulous.Passage ThreeOur world is wonderful with birds that are absolutely amazing and unbelievable.One kindof such birds is the coot —a clumsy bird so unloved that its name implies something of an old fool. ”The bird has a remarkable ability to recognize amd count its eggs,”says behavioral ecologist Bruce Lyon of the University of California at Santa Cruz. Coots need to be tricky because of the nunsual way the animals. Compete: One coot will put its eggs secretly into another’s nest to trick the host into raising the invader ’s eggs. But nest owners use their wits to fight back, Lyon finds.Over four summers, Lyon monitored 400 coot nests near Williams Lake in central British Columbia, tagging the eggs with a marker. Of these , 160 coot nests received eggs from unrelated coots. The hosts generally were not fooled, however,. About half the time, coot parents rejected the strange eggs completely, usually by burying them deep in the nest. “Foreign eggs were not disappearing by chance ---and that can only mean the birds wererecognizing them, ”Lyon says. Apparently , the coots were alerted by the unfamiliar colors and patterns on the foreign eggs. In other cases, the parents pushed the foreign eggs to an unfavorable position at the border area of the nest, where there is less heat for hatching.Even if a mother coot didn ’tremove the foreign eggs from her nest, she continued to lay a normal hatch number of her own eggs, despite the apparent extra foreign eggs. Lyon thinks that means the coots somehow kept a count of both their own eggs and the suspicious ones. “That coots can distinguish their own eggs from the foreign ones is a rare but very convincing example of counting wild animal world, ”the ecologist concluded.26. The meaning of the bird ’s name “coot”probably is __________.A. wonderful and amazingB. unusual and remarkableC. secret and unbelievableD. old and silly27. In the passage, “foreign eggs”refers to _________.A. the eggs of the nest ownersB. the eggs of the invadersC.the eggs from foreign countriesD. the eggs unable to be hatched28.Which of the following is the particular way coots often compete?A. To steal some eggs from other nests.B. To put their own eggs intoothers ’nests. C. To hatch othercoots’eggs.D. To protect their own eggs.29.Which would the nest owners do with the foreign eggs according to the passage?Ⅰ. Burying them deep in the nests.Ⅱ. Pushing them aside to an unfavorable area.Ⅲ. Hatching them as their own.A. Ⅰ .onlyB. Ⅱ .onlyC. Ⅰ.land Ⅱ .D. Ⅰ .,Ⅱ .and Ⅲ .30. Which of the following is the particular ability the ecologist believes that the coot has?A. To trick other coots.B. To fight back the tricks.C. To be alert to the foreign eggs.D. To recognize and count its own eggs.Passage FourNational Aviation and Space Administration (NASA) and its partners in the Inter-national Space Station have agreed in principle to let a 28-year-old South African become the second paying tourist on the orbiting outpost, the U.S. space agency said on Tuesday.Internet magnate Mark Shuttleworth signed a contract on Dec.4 with the Russian Aviation and Space Agency(RASA) to fly aboard a Soyuz space taxi to the station in April 2002, almost exactly a year after lionaire Dennis Tito became the first to experience space as a paying guest.NASA spokeswoman Kristen Larson said by telephone:”We’ve agreed in principle to the flight of Mr. Shuttleworth. However, there are some final details that need to be takenof . ”Larson would not say what details needed resolving , but said the station’s internationalpartners---including the space agencies of Russia, Europe, Japan and Canada---had drafted a set of requirements for space travelers covering “physical ability, psychological ability, language ability ”and “length and appropriateness of training. ”Outgoing commander Frank Culbertson of the space station said the new crew replacinghis was going to be extremely busy. “The station is for workers, and it puts an additional burden on the crew to have people up here that are not doing science or conducting experiments that are productive. This is a workplace, a laboratory, a research facility, ”he said.Space Adventures chief Eric Anderson said he could not disclose what Shuttleworth was paying for the trip, but added that a Russian official had been quoted as saying the price wasno worse than Tito ’s fare, which was widely reported to be $ 20 million.31. Who was the first space tourist according to the passage?A. Kristen Larson.B. Eric Anderson.C. Mark Shuttleworth.D. Dennis Tito.32.Which of the following is NOT included in the requirements for space travelers?A. Sufficient experience in conducting laboratory work.B. Enough long and proper training for flight.C.

Because the space station isn’ t big enough for the payings. touristB. Because as a place for doing research, the staton should be highly efficient.C. Because a paying tourist may be ignorant of the space research work.D. Because the paying tourists have to pay too much to gain space experience.34.“ Anoutgoing commander ” can probably be one who __________.A.is extremely capableB.is going to be out of dutyC. is a supervisor over the space station workD. has his own crew members35.To be the second paying space tourist ,one has to primarily____.A. receive necessary training voluntarilyB. pay a sum of money no less than Tito’ s fareC. pay a sum of money less than Tito’ s fareD. do more mental and physical exercisesPartⅢ Vocabulary and Structure(20 points)Directions: There are 40 incomplete sentences in this part.For each sentence there are 4choices marked A,B,C and D.Choose the one that best completes the sentence.Mark youranswer on the ANSWER SHEET with a single line through the center.36.If workers had been paid decent wages, profits________so great.A. would beB. were not to beC. wouldn ’thave beenD. would have been37.If students can ’tfocus on the spoken word of the teacher, they not only lose______to learn;they actually lose ability to learn.A. needB. wishC. desireD. power38.There is nothing _____ about a native English-speaking teacher except that he speaksEnglish easily and well.A. particularB. specialC. specificD. especial39.I ________ that most people who wanted to buy our newspaper were either moving or gettingmarried.A. worked outB. figured outC. spoke outD. broke outth century, has ____ its 40.

The Best Ways to Offer Support and EncouragementWhether it is a friend, family member, or coworker, at some time or another somebody will need support and encouragement. This could be the result of a disappointing change in life, a health change or other similar challenges. 36 Even if you do not think that you have the ability to offer the proper support and encouragement,your willingness to be there and to listen may be enough.Each situation is different,and each would require different levels of both support and encouragement. 37 Helping keep up someone's spirits when they are feeling helpless just by letting them know you are there,can make a serious difference in their lives.38 For people in this situation, often a telephone call, or dropping in to say “hello ” is more than enough. You may not feel that you are doing much of anything,but to the person who is feeling isolated the effort you take to stop and see them,or call them can make a big difference. For someone who has recently lost a job,you may be able to offer support by helping them network effectively. Or, you may be able to help them craft a new resume,apply for benefits,or a number of other “small” things that may seem insignificant to you, but to them can bea very significant event.39 However,if you let them know that you are there for them,and make it a point to check in with them regularly,theymay soon feel more comfortable and share them with you. Take for example a person who is suffering with depression.40 They may not be willing to admit that there is something wrong. However,if you trust your instincts(直觉) and take a little extra care to support and encourage them even in little ways,you can make a huge dif ference in their overall outlook.A. You know that there is something wrong.B. All too often,people feel isolated and do not know where to turn.C. So you may need support and encouragement to pull through.D. You may not always understand all of the issues going on in someone's life.E. In such cases,it is natural for you to reach out and offer your support and encouragement.F. You know better than anyone the best ways to support and encourage someone who is going through a difficult time.G. The support you offer could b e as simple as helping with simple household tasks, running errands(跑腿儿),or even being available for telephone calls.第二部分英语知识运用(共两节,满分45分)第一节完形填空(共20小题;每小题1.5分,满分30分)阅读下面短文,从短文后各题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中,选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。

For each of them there are 4 choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the best one and mark your answer on the ANSWER SHEET.Passage OneScientists said they have found evidence of a giant planet far out in our solar system. In a statement, the California Institute of Technology—Caltech—said this planet travels a very strange “long and thin orbit in the distant solar system.” The discovery was made by two researchers at Caltech: Konstantin Batygin and Mike Brown. They used mathematical modeling and computer simulations(模拟) to find the planet. So far, there have not been any direct observations of the planet.“My jaw hit the floor,” said astronomer(宇航员) Mike Brown, the moment he realized there might be a ninth planet.The scientists said it would take this planet 10,000 to 20,000 years just to make one full orbit around the sun. The new planet, called “Planet Nine”, has a mass about 10 times the size of Earth. If they are right, the newly found planet would be the ninth planet in our solar system. Pluto(冥王星) had been called the ninth planet until 2006, when it was renamed a “dwarf planet.”Actual confirmation of a ninth planet would be very big news. “This would be a real ninth planet,” Brown said in the statement. “There have only been two true planets discovered since ancient times, and this would be a third. It's a prettysubstantial chunk of our solar system that's still out there to be found, which is pretty exciting.”While they did not get a picture of “Planet Nine” yet, the scientists say they are using the biggest—and best—telescopes on Earth to try to find “Planet Nine.” They are also working on improving their computer simulations. They want to find out more about “Planet Nine’s” orbit, and its impact on the outer part of our solar system.16. The newly-found planet ________.A. moves around the SunB. was discovered by two astronomersC. travels a round orbitD. is far away from our solar system17. The possibility of finding a ninth planet made Mike Brown ________.A. confusedB. frightenedC. satisfiedD. surprised18. According to the scientists, ________A. the planet is ten times larger than the EarthB. it takes the planet less than 10,000 years to make a full orbitC. Pluto was once thought to be the ninth planet in the solar systemD. Pluto was given a new name after it was discovered in 200619. It can be inferred from Paragraph 4 that ________.A. there is no actual confirmation about the ninth planetB. no true planets were discovered in ancient timesC. scientists have found three planets in modern timesD. the ninth planet is the only one discovered since ancient times20. To find “Planet Nine”, scientists are using all the following EXCEPT ________.A. mathematical modelingB. computer simulationsC. advanced telescopesD. large spacecrafts Passage Two“Helicopter parenting” describes a style of raising children where parents are over-protective and do too much. The term was used for the first time in the late 1960s. It describes parents who hover(悬停) over their kids like a helicopter. Today, modern technology allows these helicopter parents to hover from even far away. They can give their children directions at any moment from anywhere.Author Julie Lythcott-Haims wrote a book titled How to Raise an Adull. In her book, she gives readers a closer look at this parenting style.“Over-parenting”, she says, “comes in three types: the first is the over-protective parents who think the world is scary and unsafe and unpredictable. And therefore, I mustprotect and prevent. The second type is the over-directive type—the parent who says, I know best what leads to success and you will do as I say. You’ll study these topics, do these activies and you will be highly achieving at all of it. The third type is the concierge(看门人)—the parent who just wants to make life smoother—from waking their kid up, to keeping track of their deadlines, to making sure they haven't forgotten anything, to even doing the homework for the kid.”Julie Lythcott-Haims says she experienced the effects of helicopter parenting firsthand when she worked as dean offirst-year students at Stanford University. The incoming students were very smart and accomplished on paper. But many were unable to take care of themselves.“They were turning to parents constantly for guidance, for problem solving, to have them make the choice about something.” Often time s, Lythcott-Haims had to remind those parents that their kids were old enough to take care of themselves.21. The term “helicopter parenting” ________.A. describes parents who give children directions in the airB. was probably invented in the late nineteenth centuryC. gains more meaning as modern technology developsD. refers to parents who concern too much about kids22. According to Lythcott-Haims, over-parenting has all the following features EXCEPT ________.A. over-directiveB. over-dependentC. over-preventiveD. over-protective23. It can be inferred that a concierge mother will ________.A. regard the world as very dangerousB. allow children to do whatever they likeC. keep a close eye on the kid’s assignmentD. let the kid alone when he falls on the ground24. In Julie’s eyes, the first-year students at Stanford University are ________.A. very clever in studyingB. really good at problem-solvingC. unable to communicate with teachersD. having problems making friends25. Lythcott-Haims’ attitude towards helicopter parenting is________.A. supportiveB. negativeC. uninterestedD. unclearPassage ThreeI recently had the opportunity to go to my first ever music festival. We Love Green was held over a weekend in Parc de Bagatelle, Paris. While like most music festivals, it boasted an impressive and diverse music, there was something extra special about this one. You see, this was a green festival!From the food to the stalls(货摊), everything was as environmentally friendly as possible. Not only was the majority of the furniture/stalls/toilet rooms hand-made from wood, the festival was powered by solar energy. Guests were invited to dispose of rubbish in specially labeled dustbins which, afterthe festival, were sorted so all of the waste could be recycled appropriately. Fresh water was made available freely toeveryone so that attendants were not encouraged to buy drinksin plastic bottles which would have created a lot of waste.I found the experience incredibly fun but also really interesting. Having never been to a music festival before, Iwas unsure of what to expect. However, I was happy to findmyself sitting in a field eating a healthy, home-made fruitcake while drinking organic fruit juice. There were many stalls, art installations, and different areas, meaning there was something there for everyone, from small children to theelderly!This seems like such a great idea, making something veryfun and interesting, that does not cause great damage to the environment. I have since discovered that there are more events similar to this ac ross the globe, which is great! I can’timagine how much waste has been produced from such public events as festivals across the years before we realised just how bad they were for the environment!26. Which of the following can be the title of the passage?A. We Love GreenB. We Love EnvironmentC. Music FestivalsD. A Unique Public Event27. What is special about the music festival?A. It has a special band.B. It has a unique program list.C. It is held every weekend.D. It is environmentally friendly.28. At the music festival, guests were encouraged to ________.A. make furniture from woodB. bring plastic-bottled drinksC. recycle rubbish by themselvesD. drink free fresh water29. According to Paragraph 3, the author ________.A. fully enjoyed the festivalB. expected muh from the festivalC. found the event very funnyD. liked listening to music at home30. The purpose of this passage is to ________.A. raise funds for environment protectionB. highlight that being green can be funC. encourage people to go to music festivalsD. introduce the author's favourite musiciansPassage FourChokwe Selassie is on a mission to help drivers avoid potholes(路面坑洞). The eighth-grader got his inspiration on a recent morning, when his mother was driving him to school.Their car was damaged as it went over a huge pothole in the middle of the street in their hometown of Jackson, Mississippi. “I decided I was going to do something about the pothole problem in my city,” said Chokwe. His solution: an app that warns drivers when there is a pothole ahead.Chokwe developed the app with his friends, “When the app detects a pothole, it is highlighted in red,” Chokwe says. “And if you get close to the pothole, your phone will warn you with a beep.” Drivers can also use the app to report any potholes they encounter, and to look for other routes they can take to avoid roads that have them.The app relies on current available information about the streets of Jackson. “It works by using the city’s 311 call system, so it uses information already stored in a database,”Chokwe says. Through the call system, citizens dial 311 to report non-emergency problems—which include potholes. As Chokwe and his friends worked on the app, they also went street by street throughout the city. They determined that focusing on the 10 busiest streets in Jackson would give them a large enough sample size to test it.Although the app isn’t yet available for sale, Chokwe is already looking for ways to improve it. The app remains limited to 10 streets in Jackson, but he hopes to add more, so that it includes every street in the city. And then he wants to go even farther. “I want to keep working on the app until it’s nationwide,” Chokwe says.31. Chokwe Selassie got the idea to develop the app from________.A. his own experienceB. a recent news reportC. his friendsD. his mother32. When you are close to a pothole, your phone will warn you with ________.A. a voice reportB. a red lightC. a beeping soundD. a map image33. Drivers can also use Chokwe’s app to ________.A. report emergency traffic problemsB. look for information other than potholesC. choose safer routes without potholesD. avoid traffic jam caused by potholes34. To develop the app, Chokwe and his friends ________.A. reported potholes to 311 call systemB. conducted field trips on the streetsC. built their own information databaseD. collected samples in their neighborhood35. We can learn from the last paragraph that Chokwe ________.A. is quite successfulB. is facing difficultiesC. has regained hopeD. has a great ambitionPart III Vocabulary and Structure (20 points)Directions:There are 40 incomplete sentence in this part.

Passage OneBig data can be defined as information that is too big or complex to be containedorprocessed by any one machine or person.AsastudentattheUniversity of Sussex, Julian Dailly had two majors –English and philosophy. When he completed his studies, Dailly wondered how he would everearn a living in a world filled with machines and technology. Now, he is part of the big data industry that includes Google andFacebook.Dailly's research company,Morar Consulting,started three years ago with fiveemployees.The company's earnings have increased by 25 % each year.It now employs90 people."What we do here is we try to discover what's meaningful for people and Linkthattotheireconomicbehavio r,‖Daillysaid.He noted the importance of working with people with different skills."We havepeople from traditional research backgrounds,in addition to some in social sciences,economics,people from tech backgrounds,and sales people," Dailly said. Companies like Dailly's employ recent college graduates.The industry profitsfrom the ideas ofthese young men and women. New forms ofdata also make it possiblefor some observers to predict the future. They are more valuable to companies than thetraditional forms ofdata recording or reporting."We have access to the core information inside people's heads," Dailly said."Theytell you what people are going to do as opposed to what they've done. That helps peopletake proper action in advance. This makes it much more useful for strategy."Julian Dailly dismisses concerns that computers have finally taken control ofourdaily lives. "Some may worry that humans will be allowed to be replaced by machines.Ithink it's a fantasy."16.Dailly has an educationbackground of ______.A.engineeringB.artsC. sciencesD.business17.Dailly'scompany focuses on businesses in ______.A. marketing strategyB.machinesellingC. staff trainingD.bigdataresearch18.The company's staffis characterized by all the following EXCEPT ______.A.freshideasB.youngageC. mixed education backgroundsD. rich experience in the field19.The company is aimed at making use of the information to help people ______.A.take predictive actionB.rememberthepastC. learn fromeachotherD.stick to the tradition20.According to Dailly, the idea that humans may be replaced by machines ______.A.isawisewarningB.ispureimaginationC.maycometrueD.needsfurtherstudyPassage TwoA new record for the oldest woman to run a marathon has been set, but it may notstand for more than a year Hariette Thompson, 92, said that she hasn't ruled outrunning the Rock'n' Roll Marathon in San Diego again next year. Hariette finished in7 hours, 24 minutes, 36 seconds, the BBC reports, coming close to the over-90 record of7 hours, 7 minutes, and 42 seconds she set in 2014, despite having a very difficult yearbetween marathons."I couldn't train very well because my husband was very ill and Ihad to be with him for some time, and then when he died in January Ihadsometreatments on my leg," Thompson, who was in her 70s when she ran her first marathon, Tellsthe AP."Iwasjust really thrilled that I could finish today.At 92 years and 65 days old, Thompson is 46 days older than Gladys Burrill waswhen Burill finished the 2010 Honolulu Marathon.―I can't believeI made it,‖Thompson tells the Charlotte Observer.

Thepavements are stained with chewing gum and the ditches are full of discarded fast foodpackets. Years ago Iremember traveling abroad and being saddened by the plastic bagsand discarded bottles.owadays, Britain seems to look at least as bad. What has gonewrong?The problem is that the rubbish created by our increasingly mobile lives lasts a lotlonger than before. If it is not cleared up and properly thrown away, it stays in theundergrowth(下层灌木) foryears.It is estimated that 10 billion plastic bags have been given to shoppers. These willtake anything from 100 to 1,000 years to rot However, it is not as it there is no solutionto this. A few years ago, the Irish government introduced a tax on non-recyclable carrierbags and in three months reduced their use by 90%. When he was a minister, MichaelMeacher attempted to introduce a similar arrangement in Britain. The plastics industryprotested, ofcourse. However, they need not have bothered; the idea was killed before itcoulddrawbreath,leavingsupermarkets free to give away plastic bags. What is clearly necessary right now is some sort of combined action, bothindividual and collective,before it is too late.The alternative is to continue slidingdownhilluntilwehaveacountrythatlooks like a vast rubbishtip. around them are clean and tidy, people behave cleanly and tidily. If they are surroundedby rubbish,they behave like rubbish.Now,much of Britain looks pretty dirty.Whatwill it look like in five years?26.What might be the best title for the passage?A.PlasticBagsB.Environment ProtectionD.RubbishDisposal C.DirtyBritain27.Theplasticsindustryin Britain protested because ______.A.a tax was proposed on non-recyclable carrier bagsB.supermarkets no longer gave away plastic bagsC.theywereblamedforcausingplasticpollutionD. the government did not support them28.The expression "sliding downhill" (Para.4) probably means"______‖A.working hard to reduce rubbishB.producing more plastic bagsC.encouraging people to use plastic bagsD. making things worse by taking no action29.Which ofthe following best describes the author's outlook on the environment?A. Optimistic.B.Confused.C. Concerned.D.Indifferent.30.The purpose of the article is to ______.A.encourage the public to take action against rubbishB.discourage people from supporting the plastics industryC.call on the government to protect the environmentD. encourage supermarkets to give away recyclable bagsPassage FourThosewhoworkintheNetherlandsoftenfeel thatalotoftimeiswastedindiscussions that lead to nothing. There are often meetings with documents, an agenda, and a chairman.All those present will have their say,after which their remarks arediscussed. He who decides to skip a meeting though he has nothing more urgent to attend to,will find itunwise.The interacting that takes place during a meeting is very importantfor the general process. He who does not appear is saying that he does not think the subject is sufficiently important,or that he apparently does not take his colleaguesseriously.Furthermore,he might miss some of the essential information that maybecome evident during the meeting.Those who are present show an interest in theproblems of their colleagues. They supply questions, rather than commands, and thusdeclare themselves"co-responsibl e‖. The Dutch,in their final conclusions,like to usesuch metaphors as"We are all in one line" or ―Our noses are pointing in the samedirection again.‖If you present a decision, you will find that everyone has something to say about itand has questions to ask. This is why the Dutch will not be quick to present somethingastheonly correctsolution.Theadvantagetothisapproach isthat such ameeting willoften lead to genuine suggestions for improvement on certain aspects of a plan. As aresult, the plan will be ajoint approach.This time-consuming and seemingly useless process helps colleagues become ateam. The amount oftime that is lost around the table is more than what made up forinefficiency,once everyone goes back to work.Statistics show Dutch employees areamong the world leaders when it comes to work productivity.31.According to Paragraph 1, meetings in Dutch companies seem to ______.A.beheldusuallyforimportantissueB.waste a lot oftimein fruitless discussionC.enable employees to know each other betterD. be good occasions for employees to show their talent32.To Dutch employees, one who is absent from a meeting ______.A.doesnottakehiscolleaguesseriousB.may have something more urgentto doC.does not miss much critical informationD.may have nothing to say at the meeting33.According to Paragraph 3,why can't Dutch employees come to a quick decision?A.People are constantly in dispute.B.An idea usually undergoes a full discussion.C.Suggestions often lead nowhere.D.People often forget the aims ofmeetings.34.What does the last paragraph tell us?A.Many leaders in the world are Dutch.B.Dutch employees are highly productive.C.Dutchcompaniesare the most successful in the world.D.Dutchemployeesworkhardest intheworld.35.The author's attitude towards the Dutch meeting is quiteA. unclearB.negativeC. positiveD.neutralPart II V ocabulary and Structure (20 points)Directions : There are 40 incomplete sentences in this part.

Choose the best one and mark your answer on the ANSWER SHEET.Passage OneThe comfort zone is our living, work, and social environments that we have grown accustomed to. It determines the type of friends we make orpeople we associate with. It determines a life style we accept or reject.Young people are very adaptable; they can adjust to changing comfort zones with ease. They can socialize with homeless people in the morning and be equally at ease at a formal banquet in the evening. As we age, the ability to adapt to wide-ranging comfort zones becomes more difficult. Social prejudice narrows the comfort zone range. The comfort zone can be a decision making tool.Comfort zones are directly related to our dreams or goals, which is associated withdaydreaming and then they work their way into reality.The more clearly and vividly we fantasize our dream, the stronger and more real the pictures on the subconscious level will become. Once our subconscious accepts this image and its expectation, it will go to work, searching for a way to bring it into reality. If we feel that these things are too good for us, we will find ways to fail. If, however, we intentionally imagine the change we want, build an expectation of the changeE 卷第 3 页共13 页mentally and emotionally, and we will find ways to acquire dream and, when mentally ready, it will arrive faster than we everthought possible.For some people, problems, suffering, poverty, bad breaks are their comfort zone. They find comfort in finding fault and complaining about their misfortune. The same is true for businesses. Management and workers have grown used to seeing things go wrong and expect them too.Management finds comfort in finding fault with workers and workers and vice versa.Note: If the comfort zone we are seeking is beyond our current income, then, we need to develop a service that has greater value than ourcurrent one. Money, power and influence are not goals; they are rewards ONLY for personal achievement.16.As one grows older, __ .A.one 's comfort zone becomes narrowerB.one finds comfort zone more easilyC.one becomes more sympatheticD.one behaves better in social gathering17.What does “be discontent with our current comfort zone (Para.3) mean?A.Be prepared to realize our dreams.B.Keep dreaming of unrealistic goals.C.Picture our dreams clearly and vividly.D. Be dissatisfied with our present life.18.According to the author, daydreaming _.A.requires a clear goal in mindB.does little good to the pursuit of happinessC.prepares us for meaningful changes in lifeD. wastes our time and energy19.It can be inferred from Paragraph 4 that .A. comfort zone may lead to conflictsB. comfort zone is not necessarily positiveC. people tend to find fault with themselvesD. survival is hard in business circle20. By seeking a better comfort zone, people aim to .A. make greater achievingB. make more moneyC. be more influentialD. gain greater powerPassage TwoEntire cultures operate on elaborate systems of indirectness. For example, I discovered in a small research project that mostGreeks assumed that a wife who asked , “Would you like to go to thewas hinting that she wanted to go. They felt that she wouldn 'up if shedidn 't want to go. Furthermore, they felt, she would not state her preference directly because that would sound like a demand. Indirectness was the appropriate means for communicating her E 卷第 4 页共 13 页preference.Japanese culture has developed indirectness to a fine art.

Some people hold that parents should decide for their children on their careers. While children think that they should consider their future careers on their own.Those who hold the first opinion think that parents naturally have the responsibility for the choices of careers, which is very important for their children and themselves. Parents also think they are experienced enough to make a wiser decision in term of career choices for their children. In contrast, children think they have right to make their own decisions, which is important for their growth. Furthermore, only children themselves know what the right jobs are for them.As far as I am concerned, I agree with the latter view. Admittedly, parents should gibe a helping hand when necessary, but children should decide their own future careers. Only in this way can children have more fulfilling careers and live a more successful life.。

When he completed his studies,Dailly wondered how he could ever earn a living in a world filled with machines and technology. Now,he is part of the big data industry that includes Google and Facebook.Dailly's research company,Morar Consulting,started three years ago with five employees. The company's earnings have increased by 25% each year. It now employs 90 people.“What we do here is we try to discover what's meaningful for people and link that to their economic behavior.”Dailly said.He noted the importance of working with people with different skills.“We have people from traditional research background,in addition to some in social sciences,economics,people from tech backgrounds,and sales people.”Dailly said.Companies like Dailly's employ recent college graduates. The industry profits from the idea of these young man and women. New forms of data also make it possible for some observers to predict the future. They are more valuable to companies than the traditional forms of data recording or reporting.“We have access to the core information inside people's heads.”Dailly said.“They tell you what peoples are going to do as opposed to what they've done. That helps people take proper action in advance. This makes it much more useful for strategy.”Julian Dailly dismissed concerns that computers have finally taken control of our daily lives.“Some may worry that humans will be allowed to be replaced by machines.

Harriette Thompson,92,said that she hasn't ruled out running the Rock ‘n’Roll Marathon in San Diego again next year. Harriette finished in 7 hours,24 minutes,36 seconds,the BBC reports,coming close to the over-90 record of 7hours,7 minutes,and 42 seconds she set in 2014,despite having a very difficult year between marathons.“I couldn't train very well because my husband was very ill and I had to be with him for some time,and then when he died in January I had some treatments on my leg,”Thompson,who was in her 70s when she ran her first marathon,tells the AP. “I was just really thrilled that I could finish today.”At 92 years and 65 days old,Thompson is 46 days older than Gladys Burrill was when Burrill finished the 2010 Honolulu Marathon.“I can't believe I made it,”Thompson tells the Charlotte Observer.“I was really tired at one point. Around Mile 21,I was going up a hill and it was like a mountain,and I was thinking,‘This is sort of crazy at my age. I can't do it.’But then I felt better coming down the hill. And my son Brenny kept feeding me all these wonderful carbohydrates(碳水化合物) that kept me going.”Thompson —whose parents,three brothers,and husband all died of cancer—tells the Observer that the San Diego marathon's fundraising for the Leukemia(白血病) Society is what inspired her to run and may even bring her back again next year.21.What does Thompson say about the San Diego marathon next year?A.

The pavements are stained with chewing gum and the ditches are full of discarded fast food packets. Years ago I remember traveling abroad and being saddened by the plastic bags and discarded bottles. Nowadays,Britain seems to look at least as bad. What has gone wrong?The problem is that the rubbish created by our increasingly mobile lives last a lot longer than before. If it is not cleared up and properly thrown away,it stays in the undergrowth(下层灌木) for years.It is estimated that 10 billion plastic bags have been given to shoppers. These will take anything from 100 to 1000 years to rot. However,it is not as if there is no solution to this. A few years ago,the Irish government introduced a tax on non-recyclable carrier bags and in three months reduced their use by 90%. When he was a minister,Michael Meacher attempted to introduce a similar arrangement in Britain. The plastic industry protested,of course. However,they need not have bothered;the idea was killed before it could draw breath,leaving supermarkets free to give away plastic bags.What is clearly necessary right now is some sort of combined action,both individual and collective,before it is too late. The alternative is to continue sliding downhill until we have a country that looks like a vast rubbish tip. We may well be at the tipping point. Yet we know that people respond to their environment. If things around them cleanand tidy,people behave cleanly and tidily. If they are surrounded by rubbish,they behave like rubbish. Now,much of Britain looks pretty dirty. What will it look like in five years?26.What might be the best title for this passage?A. Plastic BagsB. Environment ProtectionC. Dirty BritainD. Rubbish Disposal27.The plastics industry in Britain protested because .A. a tax was proposed on non-recyclable carrier bagsB. supermarkets no longer gave away plastic bagsC. they were blamed for causing plastic pollutionD. the government did not support them28.The expression “sliding downhill”(Para.4) probably means“”.A. working hard to reduce rubbishB. producing more plastic bagsC. encouraging people to use plastic bagsD. making things worse by taking no action29.Which of the following best describes the author's outlook on the environment?A. Optimistic.B. Confused.C. Concerned.D. Indifferent.30.The purpose of the article is to .A. encourage the public to take action against rubbishB. discourage people from supporting the plastic industryC. call on the government to protect the environmentD. encourage supermarkets to give away recyclable bagsPassage FourThose who work in the Netherlands often feel that a lot of time is wasted in discussions that lead to nothing. There are often meetings with documents,an agenda and a chairmen. All those present will have their say,after which their remarks are discussed.He who decides to skip a meeting though he has nothing more urgent to attend to,will find it unwise. The interacting that takes place during a meeting is very important for the general process. He who does not appear is saying that he does not think the subject is sufficiently important,or that the apparently does not take his colleagues seriously. Furthermore,he might miss some of the essential information that may become evident during the meeting. Those who are present show an interest in the problems of their colleagues.They supply questions,rather than commands,and thus declare themselves “co-responsible”. The Dutch,in their final conclusions,like to use such metaphors as “We are all in one line” or “Our noses are pointing in the same direction again”.If you present a decision,you will find that everyone has something to say about it and has questions to ask. This is why the Dutch will not be quick to present something as the only correct solution. The advantage to this approach is that such a meeting will often lead to genuine suggestions for improvement on certain aspects of a plan. As a result,the plan will be a joint approach.This time-consuming and seemingly useless process helps colleagues become a team. The amount of time that is lost around the table is more than what made up for inefficiency,once everyone goes back to work. Statistics show Dutch employees are among the world leaders when it comes to work productivity.31.According to Paragraph 1,meetings in Dutch companies seem to .A. be held usually for important issuesB. waste a lot of time in fruitless discussionsC. enable employees to know each other betterD. be good occasions for employees to show their talent32.To Dutch employees,one who is absent from a meeting .A. does not take his colleagues seriouslyB. may have something more urgent to doC. does not miss much critical informationD. may have nothing to say at the meeting33.According to Paragraph 3,why can't Dutch employees come to a quick decision?A.
