Booking Online and Saving the EnvironmentWhen you are looking to book a holiday, it is unlikely that you will think about how green your booking decision is, but it is something that you should think about. By“green”we mean the pact on the environment.When looking to book a holiday, you will probably find that you are faced with two main decisions. The first is to go into a travel agency, pick up brochures(宣传册)read through them and go back with just one and book with the travel agents directly or over the phone. The second is to go onto the InternetThe Internet holds many advantages over the travel agencies. The main one is convenience. You can go online to look at holidays at any time of the day. The travel agents, however, are usually very busy at times when people can actually go, i.e. lunch hours or at the weekend. You could use the telephone, but you wouldn’t be able to see the pictures or the details of the holidays, so you would probably be sent a brochure anyway.There are websites on the Internet that make shopping for holiday deals much easier. These websites are known as price comparison websites. They search through lots of different tour operators, and the results are displayed on one page, from which you can choose.Compared with the travel agencies, booking online is greener. The piles of brochures are definitely not green, and the amount of unnecessary paper used can’t be good for the environment. In the days of the Internet, there is really no need for such a large amount of paper to be wasted. So booking online will not only save you time and effort, it will do a little bit towards saving the environment, too!1. When planning holidays, few people will think about being green.A. TrueB.

But defining what it means to be a good parent is undoubtedly very 1 , particularly since children respond differently to the same style of parenting.A calm, rule-following child might respond better to a different sort of parenting than, 2 , a younger sibling.3 , there’s another sort of parent that s a bit easier to4 : a patient parent. Children of every age benefit from patient parenting. Still,5 every parent would like to be patient, this is no easy6 . Sometimes parents get exhausted and frustrated and are unable to maintain a7 and composed style with their kids. I understand this.You’re only human, and sometimes your kids can 8 you just a little too far.

We’ve all been there:12 , even though it’s common, it’s important to keep in mind that in a single moment of fatigue. you can say something to your child that you may 13 for a long time. This may not only do damage to your relationship with your child but also 14 your child’s self-esteem.If you consistently lose your 15 with your kids, then you are inadvertently modeling a lack of emotional control for your kids.

Answer the questions below each text by choosing A, B, C or D. Mark your answers on ANSWER SHEET. (40 points)Text 1Rats and other animals need to be highly attuned to social signals from others so they can identify friends to cooperate with and enemies to avoid. To find out if this extends to non-living beings, Laleh Quinn at the University of Califormia, San Diego, and her colleagues tested whether rats can detect social signals from robotic rats.They housed eight adult rats with two types of robotic rat-one social and one asocial-for four days. The robot rats were quite minimalist, resembling a chunkier version of a computer mouse with wheels to move around and colourful markings. During the experiment, the social robot rat followed the living rats around, played with the same toys, and opened cage doors to let trapped rats escape. Meanwhile, the asocial robot simply moved forwards and backwards and side to side.Next, the researchers trapped the robots in cages and gave the rats the opportunity to release them by pressing a lever. Across 18 trials each, the living rats were 52 percent more likely on average to set the socialrobot free than the asocial one. This suggests that the rats perceived the social robot as a genuine social being. They may have bonded more with the social robot because it displayed behaviours like communal exploring and playing. This could lead to the rats better remembering having freed it earlier, and wanting the robot to return the favour when they get trapped, says Quinn."Rats have been shown to engage in multiple forms of reciprocal help and cooperation, including what is referred to as direct reciprocity-where a rat will help another rat that has previously helped them." says Quinn.The readiness of the rats to befriend the social robot was surprising given its minimal design .The robot was the same size as a regular rat but resembled a simple plastic box on wheels."We'd assumed we'd have to give it a moving head and tail, facial features, and put a scent on it to make it smell like a real rat, but that wasn't necessary, "says Janet Wiles at the University of Queensland in Australia, who helped with the research.The finding shows how sensitive rats are to social cues, even when they come from basic robots. Similarly, children tend to treat robots as if they are fellow beings, even when they display only simple social signals."We humans seem to be fascinated by robots, and it turns out other animals are too,"says Wiles.21. Quinn and her colleagues conducted a test to see if rats can_____.[A] distinguish a friendly rat from a hostile one[B] pick up social signals from non-living rats[C] attain sociable traits through special training[D] send out warning messages to their fellows22. What did the asocial robot do during the experiment?[A] It played with some toys.[B] It set the trapped rats free.[C] It moved around alone.[D] It followed the social robot.23. According to Quinn, the rats released the social robot because they_____.[A] expected it to do the same in return[B] considered that an interesting game[C] wanted to display their intelligence[D] tried to practice a means of escape24. Janet Wiles notes that rats_____.[A] respond more to actions than to looks[B] differentiate smells better than sizes[C] can be scared by a plastic box on wheels[D] can remember other rats' facial features25. It can be learned from the text that rats_____.[A] appear to be adaptable to new surroundings[B] are more socially active than other animals[C] are more sensitive to social cues than expected[D ]behave differently from children in socializingText 2It is true that CEO pay has gone up-top ones may make 300 times the pay of typical workers on average, and since the mid-1970s, CEO pay for large publicly traded American corporations has,by varying estimates, gone up by about 500%. The typical CEO of a top American corporation now makes about $ 18.9 million a year.The best model for understanding the growth of CEO pay is that of limited CEO talent in a world where business opportunities for the top firms are growing rapidly. The efforts of America's highest-earning 1% have been one of the more dynamic elements of the global economy. It's not popular to say, but one reason their pay hasgone up so much is that CEOs really have upped their game relative to many other workers in the U.S. economy.Today's CEO, at least for major American firms, must have many more skills than simply being able to " run the company . " CEOs must have a good sense of financial markets and maybe even how the company should, trade in them. They also need better public relations skills than their predecessors, as the costs of even a minor slip up can be significant. Then there's the fact that large American companies are much more globalized than ever before, with supply chains spread across a larger number of countries. To lead in that system requires knowledge that is fairly mind-boggling. Plus, virtually all major American companies are becoming tech companies,often with their own research and development. And beyond this, major CEOs still have to do all the day-to-day work they have always doneThe common idea that high CEO pay is mainly about ripping people off doesn't explain history very well. By most measures, corporate governance has become a lot tighter and more rigorous since the 1970s. Yet it is principally during this period of stronger governance that CEO pay has been high and rising. That suggests it is in the broader corporate interest to recruit top candidates for increasingly tough jobs.Furthermore, the highest CEO salaries are paid to outside candidates, not to the cozy insider picks. Another sign is that high CEO pay is not some kind of depredation at the expense of the rest of the company. And the stock market reacts positively when companies tie CEO pay to, say, stock prices, a sign that those practices build up corporate value not just for the CEO.26.which of the following has contributed to CEO pay rise?[A] Increased business opportunities for top firms.[B] Close cooperation among leading economics.[C]The general pay rise with a better economy.[D] The growth in the number of corporations.27 .Compared with their predecessors, today's CEOs are required to_____.[A] establish closer ties with tech companies.[B] operate more globalized companies.[C] finance more research and development.[D] foster a stronger sense of teamwork.28. CEO pay has been rising since the 1970s despite_____.[A] continual internal opposition.[B] conservative business strategies.[C] repeated governance warnings.[D] strict corporate governance.29. High CEO pay can be justified by the fact that it _____.[A] confirm the status of CEOs[B] increase corporate value.[C] boost the efficiency of CEOs[D] motive inside candidates.30. The most suitable title for this text would be_____.[A] CEO Traits: Not Easy to Define.[B]CEO Pay:Past and Present.[C]CEOs Are Not Overpaid.[D]CEOs' Challenges of Today.Text 3Madrid was haired as a public health guiding light last November when it rolled out ambitious restrictions on the most polluting cars. Seven months and one election day later, a newconservative city council suspended enforcement of the clean air zone, a first step toward its possible termination. Mayor Jose Luis Martinez-almeida made opposition to the zone a centerpiece of his election campaign, despite its success in improving air quality. A judge has nowoverruled the city’s decision to top levying fines, ordering them restored. But with legal battles ahead. the zone's future looks uncertain at best.Madrid's back and forth on clean air is a pointed reminder of the limits to the patchwork. city-by-city approach that characterizes efforts on air pollution across Europe, Britain very much Included.Among other weaknesses, the measures cities must employ when left to tackle dirty air on their own are politically controversial, and therefore vulnerable. That' because they inevitably putthe costs of cleaning the air on to individual drivers-who must pay fees or buy better vehicles-rather than on to the carmanufacturers whose cheating is the real cause of our toxic pollution. It's not hard to imagine a similar reversal happening in London. The new ultra-low emission Zone(Ulez)Is likely to be a big issue in next year’s mayoral election. And if Sandakan wins and extends it to the North and South Circular roads in 2021 as he intends, it is sure to spark intense opposition from the far larger number of motorists who will then be affected.It's not that measures such as London’s Ulez are useless. Far from it. Local officials are usingthe levers that are available to them to safeguard residents' health in the face of a serious threat.The zones do deliver some improvements to air quality, and the science tells us that means realhealth benefits.But mayors and councilors can only do so much about a problem that is far bigger than any one city or town. They are acting because national governments-Britain's and others across Europe-have failed to do so.Restrictions that keep highly polluting cars out of certain areas-city centers, "school streets",even individual roads-are a response to the absence of a larger effort to properly enforce existingregulations and require auto companies to bring their vehicles into compliance, Wales has introduced special low speed limits to minimize pollution. We’re doing everything but insist thatmanufacturers clean up their cars31. Which of the following is true about Madrid's clean air zone?[A] Its effects are questionable.[B] It has been opposed by a judge.[C]Its fate is yet to be decided.[D] It needs tougher enforcement.32. Which is considered a weakness of the city-level measures to tackle dirty air?[A] They are biased against car manufacturers.[B] They prove impractical for city councils.[C]They are deemed too mild for politicians.[D] They put too much burden on individual motorists.33. The author believes that the extension of London's Ulez will_____.[Al arouse strong resistance(B)ensure Khan's electoral success[C]improve the city's traffic[D] discourage car manufacturing34. Who does the author think should have addressed the problem?[A] Local residents.IB] Mayors.[C]Councilors.[D] National governments35. It can be inferred from the last paragraph that auto companies_____.[A] will raise low-emission car production[BI should be forced to follow regulation[C] will upgrade the design of their vehicles[D] should be put under public supervisionText 4Now that members of Generation Zs are graduating college this spring-the most commonly-accepted definition says this generation was born after 1995, give or take a year-the attention has been rising steadily in recent weeks, Gen Zs are about to hit the streets looking for work in a labor market that's tighter than it's been in decades. And employers are planning on hiring about 17 percent more new graduates for jobs in the U.S. this year than last, according to a survey conducted by the National Association of Colleges and Employers, Everybody wants to know how the people who will soon inhabit those empty office cubicles will differ from those who came before them.If"entitled" is the most common adjective. fairly or not, applied to millennial (those born between 1981 and 1995), the catchwords for Generation Z are practical and cautious. According to the career counselors and experts who study them, Generation Zs are clear-eyed, economic pragmatists. Despite graduating into the best economy in the past 50 years, Gen Zs know What an economic train wreck looks like. They were impressionable kids during the crash of 2008, when many of their parents lost their jobs or their life savings or both. They aren't interested in taking any chances.The booming economy seems to have done little to assuage this underlying generational sense of anxious urgency, especially for those who have college debt. College loan balances in the U.S. now stand at a record $1 5 trillion, according to the Federal Reserve.Once survey from Accenture found that 88 percent of graduating seniors this year chose their major with a job in mind. In a 2019 survey of University of Georgia students, meanwhile, the career office found the most desirable trait in a future employer was the ability to offer secure employment (followed by professional development and training, and then inspiring purpose). Job security or stability was the second most important career goal (work-life balance was number one), followed by a sense of being dedicated to a cause or to feel good about serving the greater good.That's a big change from the previous generation. Millennial wanted more flexibility in their lives," notes Tanya Michelson, Associate Director of Youth Sight. a UK-based brand manager that conducts regular 60-day surveys of British youth, in findings that might just as well apply to American youth. "Generation Zs are looking for more certainty and stability, because of the rise of the gig economy. They have trouble seeing a financial future and they are quite risk averse."36 Generation Zs graduating college this spring_____.[A] are recognized for their abilities[B] are optimistic about the labor market[C] are in favor of office job offers.[D] are drawing growing public attention.37. Generation Zs are keenly aware_____.[A] What their parents expect of them[B] How valuable a counselor' s advice is[C] What a tough economic situation is like[D] How they differ from past generation38. What does the word “assuage (line 9 paragraph 2)”mean?[A] deepen[B] define.[C] maintain.[D] relieve39. It can be learned from Para. 3 that Generation 2s_____.[A] give top priority to professional training[B] have a clear idea about their future jobs[C] care little about their job performance[D] think it hard to achieve work-life balances40. Michelsen thinks that compared with millennial, Generation Zs are______.[A] less adventurous[B] less realistic[C] more generous[D] more diligentFive Ways to Win Over Everyone in the OfficeIs it possible to like everyone in your office? Think about how tough it is to get together 15 people, much less 50, who all get along perfect. But unlike in friendships, you need coworkers You work with them every day, and you depend on them just as they depend on you. Here are some ways that you can get the whole office on your side. 41. _________________________If you have a bone to pick with someone in your workplace, you may try to stay tight-lipped around them. But you won't be helping either one of you. A Harvard Business School study foundthat observers consistently rated those who were frank about themselves more highly, while those who hid lost trustworthiness. The lesson is not that you should make your personal life an open book, but rather, when given the option to offer up details about yourself or painstakingly conceal them you should just be honest.42._____________________________Just as important as being honest about yourself is being receptive to others We often feel the need to tell others how we feel, whether it's a concern about a project, a stray thought, or a compliment. Those are all valid, but you need to take time to hear out your coworkers, too. In fact,rushing to get your own ideas out there can cause colleagues to feel you don't value their opinions.Do your best to engage coworkers in a genuine, back-and-forth conversation, rather than prioritizing your own thoughts.43._________________________________Its common to have a"cubicle mate"or special confidant in a work setting. But in addition to those trusted coworkers, you should expand your horizons and find out about all the people around you Use your lunch and coffee breaks to meet up with colleagues you don't always see. Find out about their lives and interests beyond the job. It requires minimal effort and goes a long way. This will help to grow your internal network, in addition to being a nice break in the work day.44.__________________________________Positive feedback is important for anyone to hear. And you don't have to be someone’s boss totell them they did an exceptional job on a particular project This will help engender good will inothers. But don't overdo it or be fake about it. One study found that people responded best tocomments that shifted from negative to positive, possibly because it suggested they had wonsomebody over.45.____________________________This one may be a bit more difficult to puff of but it can go a long way to achieving results. Remember in dealing with any coworker what they appreciate from an interaction. Watch out forhow they verbalize with others, Some people like small talk in a meeting before digging into important matters, while others are more straightforward, Jokes that work on one person wont necessarily land with another. So,adapt your style accordingly to type. Consider the person that you' re dealing with in advance and what will get you to your desired outcome.[A] Give compliments, just not too many[B] Put on a good face, always(C) Tailor four interactions[D] Spend time with everyone[E] Reveal, don't hide information(F) Slow down and listen[GI Put yourselves in other's shoesSection III Translation46. Directions:In this section there is a text in English. Translate it into Chinese. Write your translation on ANSWER SHEET.(15 points)It's almost impossible to go through life without experiencing some kind of failure. But the wonderful thing about failure is that it's entirely up to us to decide how to look at it. We can choose to see failure as "the end of the world "or we can look at failure as the incredible learning experience that it often is. Every time we fail at something, we can choose to look for the lesson we're meant to learn. These lessons are very important; they are how we grow, and how we keep from making that same mistake again.Failure stop us only if we let them. Failure can also teach us things about ourselves that we would never have learned otherwise. For instance, failure can help you discover how strong a person you are.

Booking Online and Saving the EnvironmentWhen you are looking to book aholiday,it is unlikely that you will think about how green your booking decision is,but it is something that you should think about.By green"we mean the impact on the environment.When looking to book a holiday,you will probably find that you are faced with two maindecisions.The first is to go into atravel agency,pick up brochures(宣传册),read through themand go back with just one and book with the travel agents directly or over the phone.The second is to go onto the Internet.The Internet holds many advantages over the travel agencies.The main one is convenience.You can go online to lookat holidays at any timeof the day.The travel agents,however,areusually very busy at times when peoplecan actually go,i.e.lunch hours or at the weekend.You could use the telephone,but you wouldn't be able tosee the pictures or the details of the holidays,So you would probably be sent a brochure anyway.There are websites on the Internet that make shopping forholiday deals much easier.These websites are known as price comparison websites.They search through lots of different tour operators,and the results are displayed on one page,from which you can choose.Compared with the travel agencies,bookingonline is greener.The piles of brochures are definitely not green,and the amount of unnecessary paper used can't be good for the environment.In the days ofthe Internet,there is really no need for such a large amountof paper to be wasted.So booking online will not only save you time and effort,it willdo a little bit towards saving the environment,too!1.When planning holidays,few people will think about being green.A.TrueC.Not Given2.There are two main choices when people look to book their holidays.A.TrueB.FalseC.Not Given3.People go to travel agencies and make their decisions directly.A.TrueB.FalseC.Not Given4.The main advantage of booking online is saving money.A.TrueB.FalseC.Not Given5.Many people go to travel agencies at lunchtime.A.TrueB.FalseC.Not Given6.Booking holidays by telephone requires less communicative skills.A.TrueB.FalseC.Not Given7.There are limited choices at pricecomparison websites.A.TrueB.FalseC.Not Given8.Travel agencies make the best use of price comparison websites.A.TrueB.FalseC.Not Given9.Travelers collect brochures as a hobby.A.TrueB.FalseC.Not Given10.Booking online is a way to save the environment.B.FalseC.Not Given第二部分::阅读选择(第11~15题,,每题2分,,共10分)阅读下面短文,,请从短文后所给各题的4个选项(A、B、C、D)中选出1个最佳选项,,并在答题卡相应位置上将该项涂黑。

The robot was the same size as a regular rat but resembled a simple plastic box on wheels.“We’d assumed we’d have to give it a moving head and tail,facial features,and put a scene on it to make it smell like a real rat,but that wasn’t necessary,"says Janet Wiles at the University of Queensland in Australia,who helped with the research.The finding shows how sensitive rats are to social cues,even when they come from basic robots.Similarly,children tend to treat robots as if they are fellow beings,even when they displayonly simple social signals.“We humans seem to be fascinated by robots,and it turns out other animals are too,”says Wiles.21.Quinn and her colleagues conducted a test to see if rats can.[A]pickup social signals from non-living rats[B]distinguish a friendly rat from a hostile one[C]attain sociable traits through special training[D]send out warming messages to their fellow22.What did the social robot do during the experiment?[A]It followed the social robot.[B]It played with some toys.[C]It set the trapped Tats free.[D]It moved around alone.23.According to Quinn,the rats released the social robot because they.[A]tried to practice a means of escape[B]expected it to do the same in return[C]wanted to display their intelligence[D]considered that an interesting game24.James Wiles notes that rats.[A]can remember other rat’s facial features[B]differentiate smells better than sizes[C]respond more to cations than to looks[D]can be scared by a plastic box on wheels25.It can be learned from the text that rats.[A]appear to be adaptable to new surroundings(B]are more socially active than other animals[C]behave differently from children in socializing[D]are more sensitive to social cues than expectedText2It is fashionable today to bash Big Business.And there is one issue on which the many critics agree:CEO pay.We hear that CEOs are paid too much(or too much relative to workers),or that they rig others’pay,or that their pay is insufficiently related to positive outcomes.But the more likely truth is CEO pay is largely caused by intense competition.It is true that CEO pay has gone up—top ones may make300times the pay of typical workers on average,and since the mid-1970s,CEO pay for large publicly traded American corporations has,by varying estimates,gone up by about500%.The typical CEO of a top American corporation—from the350largest such companies—now makes about$18.9million a year.While individual cases of overpayment definitely exist,in general,the determinants of CEO pay are not so mysterious and not so mired in corruption.In fact,overall CEO compensation for the top companies rises pretty much.In lockstep with the value of those companies on the stock market.The best model for understanding the growth of CEO pay,though,is that of limited CEOtalent in a world where business opportunities for the top firms are growing rapidly.The efforts of America’s highest-earning1%have been one of the more dynamic elements of the global economy.It’s not popular to say,but one reason their pay has gone up so much is that CEOs really have upped their game relative to many other workers in the U.S.economy.Today’s CEO,at least for major American firms,must have many more skills than simply being able to“run the company.”CEOs must have a good sense of financial markets and maybe even how the company should trade in them.They also need better public relations skills than their predecessors,as the costs of even a minor slipup can be significant.Then there’s the fact that large American companies are much more globalized than ever before,with supply chains spread across a larger number of countries.To lead in that system requires knowledge that is fairly mind-boggling.There is yet another trend:virtually all major American companies are becoming tech companies,one way or another.An agribusiness company,for instance,may focus on R&D in highly IT-intensive areas such as genome sequencing.Similarly,it is hard to do a good job running the Walt Disney Company just by picking good movie scripts and courting stars;you also need to build a firm capable of creating significant CGI products for animated movies at the highest levelsof technical sophistication and with many frontier innovations along the way.On top of all of this,major CEOs still have to do the job they have always done—which includes motivating employees,serving as an internal role model,helping to define and extend a corporate culture,understanding the internal accounting,and presenting budgets and business plans to the board.Good CEOs are some of the world’s most potent creators and have some of the very deepest skills of understanding.26.which of the following has contributed to CEO pay rise?A.The growth in the number ofcooperationsB.The general pay rise with a better economyC.Increased business opportunities for top firmsD.Close cooperation among leading economicspared with their predecessors,today’s CEOs are required to.A.foster a stronger sense ofteamworkB.finance more research and developmentC.establish closer ties with tech companiesD.operate more globalized companies28.CEO pay has been rising since the1970s despite.A.continual internal oppositionB.strict corporate governanceC.conservative business strategiesD.repeated governance warnings29.High CEO pay can be justified by the fact that it helps.A.confirm the status of CEOsB.motive inside candidatesC.boost the efficiency of CEOsD.increase corporate value30.The most suitable title for this text would be.A.CEOs Are Not OverpaidB.CEO Pay:Past and PresentC.CEOs’Challenges of TodayD.CEO Traits:Not Easy to DefineText3Madrid was hailed as a public health beacon last November when it rolled out ambitious restrictions on the most polluting cars.Seven months and one election day later,a new conservative city council suspended enforcement of the clean air zone,a first step toward its possible demise.Mayor Jose Luis Martínez-Almeida made opposition to the zone a centrepiece of his election campaign,despite its success in improving air quality.A judge has now overruled the city's decision to stop levying fines,ordering them reinstated.But with legal battles ahead,the zone's future looks uncertain at best.Among other weaknesses,the measures cities must employ when left to tackle dirty air on their own are politically contentious,and therefore vulnerable.That’s because they inevitably put the costs of cleaning the air on to individual drivers—who must pay fees or buy better vehicles—rather than on to the car manufacturers whose cheating is the real cause of our toxic pollution.It’s not hard to imagine a similar reversal happening in London.The new ultra-low emission zone(Ulez)is likely to be a big issue in next year's mayoral election.And if Sadiq Khan wins and extends it to the North and South Circular roads in2021as he intends,it is sure to spark intense opposition from the far larger number of motorists who will then be affected.It's not that measures such as London’s Ulez are useless.Far from it.Local officials are using the levers that are available to them to safeguard residents'health in the face of a serious threat. The zones do deliver some improvements to air quality,and the science tells us that means real health benefits-fewer heart attacks,stokes and premature births,less cancer,dementia and asthma. Fewer untimely deaths.But mayors and councilors can only do so much about a problem that is far bigger than any one city or town.They are acting because national governments—Britain’s and others across Europe—have failed to do so.Restrictions that keep highly polluting cars out of certain areas—city centres,“school streets”, even individual roads-are a response to the absence of a larger effort to properly enforce existing regulations and require auto companies to bring their vehicles into compliance.Wales has introduced special low speed limits to minimise pollution.We re doing everything but insist that manufacturers clean up their cars.31.Which of the following is true about Madrid’s clean air zone?[A]Its effects are questionable[B]It has been opposed by ajudge[C]It needs tougher enforcement[D]Its fate is yet to be decided32.Which is considered a weakness of the city-level measures to tackle dirty air?[A]They are biased against car manufacturers.[B]They prove impractical for city councils.[C]They are deemed too mild for politicians.[D]They put too much burden on individual motorists.33.The author believes that the extension of London’s Ulez will.[A]arouse strong resistance.[B]ensure Khan’s electoral success.[C]improve the city’s traffic.[D]discourage car manufacturing.34.Who does the author think should have addressed the problem?[A]Local residents[B]Mayors.[C]Councilors.[D]National governments.35.It can be inferred from the last paragraph that auto companies.[A]will raise low-emission car production[B]should be forced to follow regulations[C]will upgrade the design of theirvehicles[D]should be put under public supervisionText4Now that members of Generation Z are graduating college this spring—the most commonly-accepted definition says this generation was born after1995,give or take a year—the attention has been rising steadily in recent weeks.GenZs are about to hit the streets looking for work in a labor market that’s tighter than its been in decades.And employers are planning on hiring about17percent more new graduates for jobs in the U.S.this year than last,according to a survey conducted by the National Association of Colleges and Employers.Everybody wants to know how the people who will soon inhabit those empty office cubicles will differ from those who came before them.If“entitled”is the most common adjective,fairly or not,applied to millennials(those born between1981and1995),the catchwords for Generation Z are practical and cautious.According to the career counselors and experts who study them,Generation Zs are clear-eyed,economic pragmatists.Despite graduating into the best economy in the past50years,Gen Zs know what an economic train wreck looks like.They were impressionable kids during the crash of2008,when many of their parents lost their jobs or their life savings or both.They aren’t interested in taking any chances.The booming economy seems to have done little to assuage this underlying generational sense of anxious urgency,especially for those who have college debt.College loan balances in the U.S.now stand at a record$1.5trillion,according to the Federal Reserve.One survey from Accenture found that88percent of graduating seniors this year chose their major with a job in mind.In a2019survey of University of Georgia students,meanwhile,the career office found the most desirable trait in a future employer was the ability to offer secure employment(followed by professional development and training,and then inspiring purpose).Job security or stability was the second most important career goal(work-life balance was number one),followed by a sense of being dedicated to a cause or to feel good about serving the greater good.36.Generation Zs graduating college this spring.[A]are recognized for their abilities。

A calm rule-following child might respond better to a different sort of parenting than 2 a younger one.3, there's another sort of parent that's easier to 4 ; a parent. Children of every age benefit from patient parenting. Still , 5 . every parent would like to be patient, this is no easy 6 . sometimes, parents gel exhausted and are unable to maintain a 7 style with their kids. 1 understand this.You're only human, and sometimes your kids can 8 you just a little too far. And then the9 happens: You lose your patience and either scream al your kids or say something that was too10 and does nobody any good. You wish that you could11 the clock and start over. We've all been there.12 even though it's common, it's vital to keep in mind that in a single moment of fatigue, you can say something to your child that you may13 for a long time. This may not only do damage to your relationship with your child but also14 your child's self-esteem.If you consistently lose your15 with your kids, then you are modeling a lack of emotional control for your kids. We are all becoming increasingly aware of the 16 of modeling patience for the younger generation. This is a skill that will help them all throughout life. In fact, the ability to maintain emotional control when17 by stress is one of the most significant of all life's skills.Certainly, it's18 lo maintain patience at all times with your kids. A more practical goal is to try to be as calm as you can when faced with19 situations involving your children.

Mark your answers on the A NSWER SHEET.(40 points)Text 1Rats and other animals need to be highly at tuned to social signals from others so that can identify friends to cooperate with and enemies to avoid. To find out if this extends to non-living beings, Loleh Quinn at the University of California, San Diego, and her colleagues tested whether rats can detect social signals from robotic rats.They housed eight adult rats with two types of robotic rat-one social and one asocial -for 5 our days.The robots rats were quite minimalist, resembling a chunkier version of a computer mouse with wheels-to move around and colorful markings.During the experiment, the social robot rat followed the living rats around, played with the same toys, and opened caged doors to lei trapped rats escape. Meanwhile, the asocial robot simply moved forwards and backwards and side to sideNext the researchers trapped the robots in cages and gave the rats the opportunity to release them by pressing a lever. Across 18 trials each, the living rats were 52 percent more likely on average to set the social robot free than the asocial one. This suggests that the rats perceived the social robot as a genuine social being. They may have bonded more with the social robot because it displayed behaviors like communal exploring and playing. This could lead lo the rats better remembering having freed it earlier, and wanting the robot to return the favour when they get trapped, says Quinn.The readiness of the rats lo befriend the social robot was surprising given its minimal design. The robot was the same size as a regular rat but resembled a simple plastic box on wheels. "We'd assumed w e'd have lo give its moving head and tail, facial features, and put a scene on it to make it smell like a real rat. but that wasn't necessary," says Janet Wiles at the University of Queensland in Australia, who helped with the research.The finding shows how sensitive rats arc to social cues, even when they come from basic robots. Similarly, children tend to treat robots as if they are fellow beings, even when they display only simple social signals. "We humans seem to be fascinated by robots, and it turns out other animals are too," says Wiles.21.Quinn and her colleagues conducted a test to see if rats can .[A]pickup social signals from non-living rats[B]distinguish a friendly rat from a hostile one[C]attain sociable trails through special training[D]send out warning messages to their fellow22.What did the social robot do during the experiment?[A]Il followed the social robot[B]It played with some toys.[C]It set the trapped rats free.[D]It moved around alone.23.According to Quinn, the rats released the social robot because they .[A] tried to practice a means of escape] expected it to do the same in return[C]wanted to display their intelligence[D]considered that an interesting game24.James Wiles notes that rats .[A] can remember other rat's facial features[B]differentiate smells better than sizes[C]respond more to cations than to looks[D]can be scared by a plastic box on wheels25.It can be learned from the text that rats .[A]appear to be adaptable to new surroundings[B]are more socially active than other animals[C]behave differently from children in socializing[D]are more sensitive to social cues than expectedText 2It is true that CEO pay has gone up-top ones may make 300 times the pay oftypical workers on average, and since the mid-1970s CEO pay for large publicly traded American corporations has. by varying estimates, gone up by about 500%. The typical CEO of a top American corporation now makes about S18.9 million a year.The best model for understanding the growth of CEO pay is that of limited CEO talent in a world where business opportunities for the top firms are growing rapidly. The efforts of America's highest-earning 1% have been one of the more dynamic elements of the global economy. It's not popular to say, but one reason their pay has gone up so much is that CEOs really have upped their game relative to many other worker; in the U.S. economy.Today's CEO, at least for major American firms, must have many mere skills than simply being able to "run the company". CEOs must have a good sense of financial markets and maybe even how the company should trade in them. They also need better public relations skills than their predecessors, as the costs of even a minor slip up can be significant. Then there's the fact that large American companies are much more globalized than ever before, with supply chains spread across a larger number of countries. To lead in that system requires knowledge that is fairly mind-boggling plus, virtually all major American companies are beyond this major CEOs still have to doall the day-to-day work they have always done.The common idea that high CEO pay is mainly about ripping people off doesn't explain history very well. By most measures, corporate governance has become a lot tighter and more rigorous since the 1970s. Yet it is principally during this period of stronger governance that CEO pay has been high and rising. That suggests it is in the broader corporate interest to recruit top candidates for increasingly tough jobs.Furthermore, the highest CEO salaries are paid lo outside candidates, not to the cozy insider picks, another sign that high CEO pay is not some kind of depredation at the expense of the rest of the company. And the stock market reacts positively when companies tie CEO pay to, say. stock prices, a sign that those practices build up corporate value not just for the CEO.26.Which of the following has contributed to CEO pay rise?[A]The growth in the number of corporations[B]The general pay rise with a belter economy[C]Increased business opportunities for top firms[D]Close cooperation among leading economiespared with their predecessors, today's CEOs are required to .[A]foster a stronger sense of teamwork[B]finance more research and development[C]establish closer ties with tech companies[D]operate more globalized companies28.CEO pay has been rising since the 1970s despite .[A]continual internal opposition[B]strict corporate governance[C]conservative business strategies[D]Repeated government warnings29.High CEO pay can be justified by the fact that it helps ..[A]confirm the status of CEOs[B]motivate inside candidates[C]boost the efficiency of CEOs[D]increase corporate value30.The most suitable title for this text would be .[A]CEOs Are Not Overpaid[B]CEO Pay: Past and Present[C]CEOs' challenges of Today[D]CEO Traits: Not Easy to DefineText 3Madrid was hailed as a public health beacon last November when it rolled out ambitious restrictions on the most polluting cars. Seven months and one election daylater, a new conservative city council suspended enforcement of the clean air zone, a first step toward its possible demise.Mayor Jose Luis Martinez-Almeida made opposition to the zone a centerpiece of his election campaign, despite its success in improving air quality. A judge has now overruled the city's decision to stop levying fines, ordering them reinstated. Bui with legal battles ahead, the zone's future looks uncertain at best.Among other weaknesses, the measures c ities must employ when left to tackle dirty air on their own are politically contentious, and therefore vulnerable. That's because they inevitably put the costs of cleaning the air on to individual drivers-who must pay tees or buy better vehicles-rat her than on to the car manufacturers whose cheating is the real cause of our toxic pollution.It's not hard to imagine a similar reversal happening in London. The new ultra-low emission zone (Ulez) is likely to be a big issue in next year's mayoral election. And if Sadiq Khan wins and extends it to the North and South Circular roads in 2021 as he intends, it is sure to spark intense opposition from the far larger number of motorists who will then be affected.It's not that measures such as London's Ulez arc useless. Far from iL Local officials are using the levers that are available to them to safeguard residents' health in the face of a serious threat. The zones do deliver some improvements to air quality, and the science tells us that means real health benefits -fewer heart attacks, strokes and premature births, less cancer, dementia and asthma. Fewer untimely deaths.But mayors and councilors can only do so much about a problem that is far bigger than any one city or town.They are acting because national governments-Brilliant’s and others across Europe-have failed to do so.Restrictions that keep highly polluting cars out of certain areas -city centers, "school streels", even individual roads-are a response to the absence of a larger effort to properly enforce existing regulations and require auto companies to bring their vehicles into compliance. Wales has introduced special low speed limits to minimize pollution. We' re doing even-thing but insist that manufacturers clean up their cars.31.Which of the following is true about Madrid's clean air zone?[A]Its effects are questionable[B]It has been opposed by a judge[C]It needs tougher enforcement[D]Its fate is yet to be decided32.Which is considered a weakness of the city-level measures to tackle dirty air?[A]They are biased against car manufacturers.[B]They prove impractical for city councils.[C]They are deemed too mild for politicians.[D]They put too much burden on individual motorists.33.The author believes that the extension of London's Ulez will .[A]arouse strong resistance.[B]ensure Khan's electoral success.[C]improve the city's traffic.[D]discourage car manufacturing.34.Who does the author think should have addressed the problem?[A]Local residents[B]Mayors.[C]Councilors.[D]National governments.35.Il can be inferred from the last paragraph that auto companies .[A]will raise low-emission car production[B]should be forced to follow regulations [CJ will upgrade the design of their vehicles [D] should be put under public supervisionText 4Now that members of Generation Z are graduating college this spring-the most commonly-accepted definition says this generation was born after 1995. give or take a year-the attention has been rising steadily in recent weeks. GenZs are about to hit the streets looking for work in a labor market that's lighter than it's been in decades. And employers are planning on hiring about 17 percent more new graduates for jobs in the U.S. this year than last, according to a survey conducted by the National Association of Colleges and Employers. Everybody wants to know how the people who will soon inhabit those empty office cubicles will differ from those who came before them.If "entitled" is the most common adjective, fairly or not, applied lo millennials (those born between 1981 and 1995), the catchwords for Generation Z are practical and cautious. According to the career counselors and experts who study them, Generation Zs are clear-eyed, economic pragmatists. Despite graduating into the best economy in the past 50 years. Gen Zs know what an economic train wreck looks like. They were impressionable kids during the crash of 2008, when many of their parents lost their jobs or their life savings or both. They aren't interested in taking any chances. The boom economy seems to have done little to assuage this underlying generational sense o f anxious urgency especially for those who have college debt, College loan balances i n the U.S. now stand at a record $l. 5 trillion, according to the Federal Reserve.One survey from Accenture found that 8 percent of graduating seniors this yearchose their major with a job in mind. In a 2019 survey of University of Georgia students, meanwhile, the career office found the most desirable trait in a future employer was the ability to offer secure employment(followed by professional development and training, and then inspiring purpose). Job security or stability was the second most important career goal(work-life balance was number one),followed by a sense of being dedicated to a cause or to feel good about serving the greater good.36. Generation Zs graduating college this spring[A] are recognized for their abilities[B] are in favor of job offers[C] are optimistic about the labor market[D] are drawing growing public attention37. Generation Zs are keenly aware[A] what a tough economic situation is like[B] what their parents expect of them[C] how they differ from past generations[D] how valuable a counselor’s advice is38. The word "assuage"(line 9, para 2) is closet in meaning to[A] define[B] relieve[C] maintain[D] deepen39. It can be learned from Paragraph 3 that Generation[A] care little about their performance[B] give top priority to professional training[C] think it hard to achieve work-life balance[D] have a clear idea about their future job40. Michelsen thinks that compared with millennials, Generation ZS are[A] less realistic[B] less adventurous[C] more diligent[D]more generousPart BDirections: Read the following text and answer the questions by choosing the most suitable subheading from the list A-G for each numbered paragraph (41-45).

Think about how tough it is to get together 15 people, much less50, who all get along perfectly. But unlike in friendships, you need coworkers.You work with them every day and you depend on them just as they depend on you.Here are some ways that you can get the whole office on your side.41. _____If you have a bone to pick with someone in your workplace, you may try staylight-lipped around them. But you won't be helping either one of you A Harvard Business School study found that observers consistently rated those who were frankabout themselves m ore highly, while those who hid lost trustworthiness. The lesson isnot that you should make your personal life an open book, but rather, when given theoption to offer up details about yourself or painstakingly conceal them. you shouldjust be honest.42._____lust as important as being honest about yourself is being receptive to others. Weoften feel the need to tell others how we feel, whether it's a concern about a project, astray thought, or compliment. Those are all valid but you need to take time to hear outyour coworkers, too. In fact, rushing to get your own ideas out there can cause colleagues to feel you don’t value their opinions. Do your best to engage coworkers ina genuine, back-and-forth conversation, rather than prioritizing your own thoughts.43._____It's common to have a "cubicle mate" or special confidant in a work setting. Butin addition to those trusted coworkers, you should expand your horizons and find outabout all the people around you. Use your lunch and coffee breaks to meet up with colleagues you don't always see. Find out about their lives and interests beyond thejob. It requires minimal effort and goes a long way. This will help to grow yourinternal network, in addition to being a nice break in the work day44. _____Positive feedback is important for anyone to hear. And you don't have to be someone’s boss tell them theydid an unexceptional job on a particular project. This will help engender good will init or be fake about it. One study found that people responded others. But don’t over dobest comments that shifted from negative to positive, possibly because i t suggested they had won somebody over.45. _____This one may be a bit more difficult to pull off, but it can go a long way to achieving results. Remember in dealing with any coworker what they appreciate from an interaction. Watch out for how they verbalize with others. Some people like small talk in a meeting before digging into important matters, while other are more straightforward. Jokes that work one person won't necessarily land with another. So, adapt your style accordingly to type. Consider the person that you' re dealing with in advance and what will get you to your desired outcome.Section II Translation46. Directions:Translate the following text from English into Chinese. Write your translation on ANSWER SHEET(15 points)It's almost impossible to go through life without experiencing some kind of failure. But, the wonderful thing about failure is that it's entirely up to us to decide how to look at it.We can choose to see failure as "the end of the world." Or, we can look at failure as the incredible learning experience that it often is. Every time we fail at something,we can choose to look for the lesson we' re meant to learn. These lessons are very important; they' re how we grow, and how we keep from making that same mistake again. Failures stop us only if we let them.Failure can also teach us things about ourselves that we would never have learned otherwise. For instance, failure can help you discover how strong a person you are. Failing at something can help you discover your truest friends, or help you find unexpected motivation to succeed.Section III WritingPart A47.Directions: Suppose you are planning a tour of a historical site for a group of international students.

But defining what it means to be a good parent is undoubtedly very 1 particularly since children respond differently lo the same style of parenting. A calm rule-following child might respond better to a different sort of parenting than 2 a younger one.3, there's another sort of parent that's easier to 4 ; a parent.

Mark your answers on the ANSWER SHEET.(40 points)Text 1Rats and other animals need to be highly at tuned to social signals from others so that can identify friends to cooperate with and enemies to avoid. To find out if this extends to non-living beings, Loleh Quinn at the University of California, San Diego, and her colleagues tested whether rats can detect social signals from robotic rats.They housed eight adult rats with two types of robotic rat-one social and one asocial -for 5 our days.The robots rats were quite minimalist, resembling a chunkier version of a computer mouse with wheels-to move around and colorful markings.During the experiment, the social robot rat followed the living rats around, played with the same toys, and opened caged doors to lei trapped rats escape. Meanwhile, the asocial robot simply moved forwards and backwards and side to sideNext the researchers trapped the robots in cages and gave the rats the opportunity to release them by pressing a lever. Across 18 trials each, the living rats were 52 percent more likely on average to set the social robot free than the asocial one. This suggests that the rats perceived the social robot as a genuine social being. They may have bonded more with the social robot because it displayed behaviors like communal exploring and playing. This could lead lo the rats better remembering having freed it earlier, and wanting the robot to return the favour when they get trapped, says Quinn.The readiness of the rats lo befriend the social robot was surprising given its minimal design. The robot was the same size as a regular rat but resembled a simple plastic box on wheels. "We'd assumed we'd have lo give its moving head and tail, facial features, and put a scene on it to make it smell like a real rat. but that wasn't necessary," says Janet Wiles at the University of Queensland in Australia, who helped with the research.The finding shows how sensitive rats arc to social cues, even when they come from basic robots. Similarly, children tend to treat robots as if they are fellow beings, even when they display only simple social signals. "We humans seem to be fascinated by robots, and it turns out other animals are too," says Wiles.21.Quinn and her colleagues conducted a test to see if rats can .[A]pickup social signals from non-living rats[B]distinguish a friendly rat from a hostile one[C]attain sociable trails through special training[D]send out warning messages to their fellow22.What did the social robot do during the experiment?[A]Il followed the social robot[B]It played with some toys.[C]It set the trapped rats free.[D]It moved around alone.23.According to Quinn, the rats released the social robot because they .[A] tried to practice a means of escape] expected it to do the same in return[C]wanted to display their intelligence[D]considered that an interesting game24.James Wiles notes that rats .[A] can remember other rat's facial features[B]differentiate smells better than sizes[C]respond more to cations than to looks[D]can be scared by a plastic box on wheels25.It can be learned from the text that rats .[A]appear to be adaptable to new surroundings[B]are more socially active than other animals[C]behave differently from children in socializing[D]are more sensitive to social cues than expectedText 2It is true that CEO pay has gone up-top ones may make 300 times the pay of typicalworkers on average, and since the mid-1970s CEO pay for large publicly traded American corporations has. by varying estimates, gone up by about 500%. The typical CEO of a top American corporation now makes about S18.9 million a year.The best model for understanding the growth of CEO pay is that of limited CEO talent in a world where business opportunities for the top firms are growing rapidly. The efforts of America's highest-earning 1% have been one of the more dynamic elements of the global economy. It's not popular to say, but one reason their pay has gone up so much is that CEOs really have upped their game relative to many other worker; in the U.S. economy.Today's CEO, at least for major American firms, must have many mere skills than simply being able to "run the company". CEOs must have a good sense of financial markets and maybe even how the company should trade in them. They also need better public relations skills than their predecessors, as the costs of even a minor slip up can be significant. Then there's the fact that large American companies are much more globalized than ever before, with supply chains spread across a larger number of countries. To lead in that system requires knowledge that is fairly mind-boggling plus, virtually all major American companies are beyond this major CEOs still have to do all the day-to-day work they have always done.The common idea that high CEO pay is mainly about ripping people off doesn't explain history very well. By most measures, corporate governance has become a lot tighter and more rigorous since the 1970s. Yet it is principally during this period of stronger governance that CEO pay has been high and rising. That suggests it is in the broader corporate interest to recruit top candidates for increasingly tough jobs.Furthermore, the highest CEO salaries are paid lo outside candidates, not to the cozy insider picks, another sign that high CEO pay is not some kind of depredation at the expense of the rest of the company. And the stock market reacts positively when companies tie CEO pay to, say. stock prices, a sign that those practices build up corporate value not just for the CEO.26.Which of the following has contributed to CEO pay rise?[A]The growth in the number of corporations[B]The general pay rise with a belter economy[C]Increased business opportunities for top firms[D]Close cooperation among leading economiespared with their predecessors, today's CEOs are required to .[A]foster a stronger sense of teamwork[B]finance more research and development[C]establish closer ties with tech companies[D]operate more globalized companies28.CEO pay has been rising since the 1970s despite .[A]continual internal opposition[B]strict corporate governance[C]conservative business strategies[D]Repeated government warnings29.High CEO pay can be justified by the fact that it helps ..[A]confirm the status of CEOs[B]motivate inside candidates[C]boost the efficiency of CEOs[D]increase corporate value30.The most suitable title for this text would be .[A]CEOs Are Not Overpaid[B]CEO Pay: Past and Present[C]CEOs' challenges of Today[D]CEO Traits: Not Easy to DefineText 3Madrid was hailed as a public health beacon last November when it rolled out ambitious restrictions on the most polluting cars. Seven months and one election daylater, a new conservative city council suspended enforcement of the clean air zone, a first step toward its possible demise.Mayor Jose Luis Martinez-Almeida made opposition to the zone a centerpiece of his election campaign, despite its success in improving air quality. A judge has now overruled the city's decision to stop levying fines, ordering them reinstated. Bui with legal battles ahead, the zone's future looks uncertain at best.Among other weaknesses, the measures cities must employ when left to tackle dirty air on their own are politically contentious, and therefore vulnerable. That's because they inevitably put the costs of cleaning the air on to individual drivers-who must pay tees or buy better vehicles-rat her than on to the car manufacturers whose cheating is the real cause of our toxic pollution.It's not hard to imagine a similar reversal happening in London. The new ultra-low emission zone (Ulez) is likely to be a big issue in next year's mayoral election. And if Sadiq Khan wins and extends it to the North and South Circular roads in 2021 as he intends, it is sure to spark intense opposition from the far larger number of motorists who will then be affected.It's not that measures such as London's Ulez arc useless. Far from iL Local officials are using the levers that are available to them to safeguard residents' health in the face of a serious threat. The zones do deliver some improvements to air quality, and the science tells us that means real health benefits -fewer heart attacks, strokes and premature births, less cancer, dementia and asthma. Fewer untimely deaths.But mayors and councilors can only do so much about a problem that is far bigger than any one city or town.They are acting because national governments-Brilliant’s and others across Europe-have failed to do so.Restrictions that keep highly polluting cars out of certain areas -city centers, "school streels", even individual roads-are a response to the absence of a larger effort to properly enforce existing regulations and require auto companies to bring their vehicles into compliance. Wales has introduced special low speed limits to minimize pollution. We' re doing even-thing but insist that manufacturers clean up their cars.31.Which of the following is true about Madrid's clean air zone?[A]Its effects are questionable[B]It has been opposed by a judge[C]It needs tougher enforcement[D]Its fate is yet to be decided32.Which is considered a weakness of the city-level measures to tackle dirty air?[A]They are biased against car manufacturers.[B]They prove impractical for city councils.[C]They are deemed too mild for politicians.[D]They put too much burden on individual motorists.33.The author believes that the extension of London's Ulez will .[A]arouse strong resistance.[B]ensure Khan's electoral success.[C]improve the city's traffic.[D]discourage car manufacturing.34.Who does the author think should have addressed the problem?[A]Local residents[B]Mayors.[C]Councilors.[D]National governments.35.Il can be inferred from the last paragraph that auto companies .[A]will raise low-emission car production[B]should be forced to follow regulations [CJ will upgrade the design of their vehicles [D] should be put under public supervisionText 4Now that members of Generation Z are graduating college this spring-the most commonly-accepted definition says this generation was born after 1995. give or take a year-the attention has been rising steadily in recent weeks. GenZs are about to hit the streets looking for work in a labor market that's lighter than it's been in decades. And employers are planning on hiring about 17 percent more new graduates for jobs in the U.S. this year than last, according to a survey conducted by the National Association of Colleges and Employers. Everybody wants to know how the people who will soon inhabit those empty office cubicles will differ from those who came before them.If "entitled" is the most common adjective, fairly or not, applied lo millennials (those born between 1981 and 1995), the catchwords for Generation Z are practical and cautious. According to the career counselors and experts who study them, Generation Zs are clear-eyed, economic pragmatists. Despite graduating into the best economy in the past 50 years. Gen Zs know what an economic train wreck looks like. They were impressionable kids during the crash of 2008, when many of their parents lost their jobs or their life savings or both. They aren't interested in taking any chances. The boom economy seems to have done little to assuage this underlying generational sense of anxious urgency especially for those who have college debt, College loan balances in the U.S. now stand at a record $l. 5 trillion, according to the Federal Reserve.One survey from Accenture found that 8 percent of graduating seniors this year chose their major with a job in mind. In a 2019 survey of University of Georgia students,meanwhile, the career office found the most desirable trait in a future employer was the ability to offer secure employment(followed by professional development and training, and then inspiring purpose). Job security or stability was the second most important career goal(work-life balance was number one),followed by a sense of being dedicated to a cause or to feel good about serving the greater good.36. Generation Zs graduating college this spring[A] are recognized for their abilities[B] are in favor of job offers[C] are optimistic about the labor market[D] are drawing growing public attention37. Generation Zs are keenly aware[A] what a tough economic situation is like[B] what their parents expect of them[C] how they differ from past generations[D] how valuable a counselor’s advice is38. The word "assuage"(line 9, para 2) is closet in meaning to[A] define[B] relieve[C] maintain[D] deepen39. It can be learned from Paragraph 3 that Generation[A] care little about their performance[B] give top priority to professional training[C] think it hard to achieve work-life balance[D] have a clear idea about their future job40. Michelsen thinks that compared with millennials, Generation ZS are[A] less realistic[B] less adventurous[C] more diligent[D]more generousPart BDirections: Read the following text and answer the questions by choosing the most suitable subheading from the list A-G for each numbered paragraph (41-45).

Think about how tough it is to get together 15 people, much less50, who all get along perfectly. But unlike in friendships, you need coworkers. You work with them every day and you depend on them just as they depend on you. Here are some ways that you can get the whole office on your side.41. _____If you have a bone to pick with someone in your workplace, you may try stay light-lipped around them. But you won't be helping either one of you A Harvard Business School study found that observers consistently rated those who were frank about themselves more highly, while those who hid lost trustworthiness. The lesson is not that you should make your personal life an open book, but rather, when given the option to offer up details about yourself or painstakingly conceal them. you should just be honest.42._____lust as important as being honest about yourself is being receptive to others. We often feel the need to tell others how we feel, whether it's a concern about a project, a stray thought, or compliment. Those are all valid but you need to take time to hear out your coworkers, too. In fact, rushing to get your own ideas out there can cause colleagues to feel you don’t value their opinions. Do your best to engage coworkers ina genuine, back-and-forth conversation, rather than prioritizing your own thoughts.43._____It's common to have a "cubicle mate" or special confidant in a work setting. But in addition to those trusted coworkers, you should expand your horizons and find out about all the people around you. Use your lunch and coffee breaks to meet up with colleagues you don't always see. Find out about their lives and interests beyond the job. It requires minimal effort and goes a long way. This will help to grow your internal network, in addition to being a nice break in the work day44. _____Positive feedback is important for anyone to hear. And you don't have to be someone’s boss tell them theydid an unexceptional job on a particular project. This will help engender good will inothers. But don’t over do it or be fake about it. One study found that people responded best comments that shifted from negative to positive, possibly because it suggested they had won somebody over.45. _____This one may be a bit more difficult to pull off, but it can go a long way to achieving results. Remember in dealing with any coworker what they appreciate from an interaction. Watch out for how they verbalize with others. Some people like small talk in a meeting before digging into important matters, while other are more straightforward. Jokes that work one person won't necessarily land with another. So, adapt your style accordingly to type. Consider the person that you' re dealing with in advance and what will get you to your desired outcome.Section II Translation46. Directions:Translate the following text from English into Chinese. Write your translation on ANSWER SHEET(15 points)It's almost impossible to go through life without experiencing some kind of failure. But, the wonderful thing about failure is that it's entirely up to us to decide how to look at it.We can choose to see failure as "the end of the world." Or, we can look at failure as the incredible learning experience that it often is. Every time we fail at something, we can choose to look for the lesson we' re meant to learn. These lessons are very important; they' re how we grow, and how we keep from making that same mistake again. Failures stop us only if we let them.Failure can also teach us things about ourselves that we would never have learned otherwise. For instance, failure can help you discover how strong a person you are. Failing at something can help you discover your truest friends, or help you find unexpected motivation to succeed.Section III WritingPart A47.Directions: Suppose you are planning a tour of a historical site for a group of international students.
