The promoters of products say they ___3___ shape the legs, slim the face and smooth wrinkles. Often such products are nothing more than money-making things for their promoters. The results they produce are questionable, and some are dangerous to health.To understand how these products can be legally promoted to the public, ___4___ is necessary to understand something of the laws covering their regulation. If the product is a drug, FDA(Food and Drug Administration) can require proof that it is safe and effective before it ___5___(put) on the market. But if the product is a device, FDA has no authority ___6___ (require) premarketing proof of safety or effectiveness. ___7___ a product already on the market is a danger to health, FDA can request the producer or distributor to remove it from the market voluntarily, or it can take legal action, including seizure(查封) of the product.One notable case a few years ago ___8___(involve) an electrical device called the Relaxacisor, ___9___ had been sold for reducing the waistline. The Relaxacisor produced electrical shocks to the body through contact pads. FDA took legal action against the distributor to stop the sale of the device on the grounds ___10___ it was dangerous to health and life.Section B (10%)Direction: Complete the following passage by using the words in the box. Each word can only be used once. Note that there is one word more than you need.Red grouper(石斑鱼) are known for a few key characteristics — their color, which can___11___from pink to bright orange; their tastiness, whether they’re grilled or fried; and their predation (掠夺行为) method, in which they ___12___ sea creatures and swallow them whole.But their least-known characteristic might be the most valuable of all: They operate as underwater architects, ___13___ the seascape for numerous other forms of underwater life. Thatsurprising discovery is ___14___ scientists and policymakers to readjust their approach to preserving the ocean’s natural order — and heightening tensions with those who fish for a living or as a hobby.A team of scientists, led by Florida State University’s Felicia Coleman, recently found that the red grouper off Florida’s east and west coasts have created entire ocean ___15___by digging large holes in the sea’s sandy bottom. In the same way beavers ___16___dams, red grouper dig and maintain distinct holes whose rocky surfaces provide a place for coral, sponges and other marine life to gather.This new understanding is changing the way federal and state authorities manage ocean habitats and is creating a completely new crack with fishermen. “The people who are in control want to ___17___ fishing as much as possible,” said Bob Jones, executive director of the Southeastern Fisheries Association. He added that the recent discoveries about red grouper amount to an “excuse they can use to restrict fishing, ___18___or recreational.”But to many researchers, fishery officials and even some fishermen, the fact that fish act as environmental engineers provides a compelling reason to protect them from exploitation.“If you ___19___ that fish, it puts into motion a whole chain of events,” said Don deMaria, who used to fish for red grouper near Key Largo, Fla., but no longer does. “There’s a whole lot of other animals that are ___20___. I’m not saying you can’t catch them. But you can’t do it to the extent we’ve been doing for the last 20 years.”III. Reading ComprehensionSection A (15%)Direction: For each blank in the following passage there are four words or phrases marked A, B, C and D.

In the world of digital technology, e-mail, social networking and online video games, information is meant to be ___21___. Solitude can be hard to discover once it has been given up. In this respect, new technologies have ___22___ our culture.The desire to be connected has brought solitude to a(n) ___23___ as we’ve known it. People have become so ___24___ in the world of networks and connections that one can often be contactedeven if they’d rather not be. Today we can talk, text, e-mail, chat and blog, not only fromour___25___, but from our mobile phones as well.Most developed nations have become ___26___ on digital technology simply because they’ve grown accustomed to it, and at this point not ___27___ it would make them an outsider. ___28___, many jobs and careers require people to be ___29___. From this point of view, technology has changed the culture of work. Being reachable might feel like a ___30___ to those who may not want to be able to be contacted at all times. I suppose the positive side is that solitude is still possible for anyone who really wants it. Computers can be ___31___ and mobile phones can be turned off. The ability to be “connected” and “on” has many ___32___. Travelers have ended up ___33___ on mountains, and mobile phones have saved countless lives. However, they can also make people feel ___34___ and forced to answer unwanted calls or turn to unwanted texts.Attitudes towards our connectedness as a society ___35___ across generations.

A. vary B. arise C. spread D. existSection B (12%)Directions: Read the following passages. Each passage is followed by several questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C andD. choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage you have just read.ALooking back on the first twenty years of my life, I feel grateful to have been so healthy and happy. For my happiness, I am grateful to so many people and lucky events, but what have guided me and supported me in my life are my physical health, healthy finances, and my family’s happiness.Health comes first for me, because without health everything else is meaningless. Imagine starting a career without good health. Imagine starting a family without good health. Imagine achieving anything without good health. Clearly, good health is the first necessary for other part of one’s life.Good health is not enough to be happy. We still need to have money in today’s society. Money obviously pays for basic needs of life — food, housing, clothing — but it is also necessary for other reason like the quality of our education and medical care.Next comes the most important thing in having a happy life — our family. It provides the love, joy and support that everybody needs. I love my family with all my heart. I get pleasure from their pleasure. I suffer when they suffer. My family helped me get through the hard times of entrance exams. They comforted and advised me when I had misunderstanding with my friends. More importantly, they have been there to share in my successes in the past twenty years. In summary, all these are what I need and want in this world. As long as I stay healthy, earn enough money, and share both good times and bad times with my family, I will always be the happiest girl in the world.36. The writer mentions her entrance exams to prove that _______.A. opportunities go to those with strong beliefsB. our quality of life can be improved with moneyC. nothing can be achieved without a healthy bodyD. family provides the support that everybody needs37. What is the main purpose of this passage?A. To argue about the importance of money.B. To explain what are the keys to happiness.C. To discuss ways of dealing with difficulties.D. To show people’s different attitudes to happiness.38. How is the passage organized?A. Introduction—Explanation—SummaryB. Examples—Argument—SummaryC. Argument—Topic—ConclusionD. Topic—Examples—ConclusionBEverywhere I look outside my home I see people busy on their high-tech devices, while driving, walking, shopping, even sitting in toilets. When connected electronically, they are away from physical reality.People have been influenced to become technology addicted. One survey reported that “addicted” was the word most commonly used by people to describe their relationship to iPad and similar devices. One study found that people had a harder time resisting the allure of social media than they did for sleep, cigarettes and alcohol.The main goal of technology companies is to get people to spend more money and time on their products, not to actually improve our quality of life. They have successfully created a cultural disease. Consumers willingly give up their freedom, money and time to catch up on the latest information, to keep pace with their peers or to appear modern.I see people trapped in a pathological(病态的) relationship with time-sucking technology, where they serve technology more than technology serves them. I call this technology servitude. I am referring to a loss of personal freedom and independence because of uncontrolled consumption of many kinds of devices that eat up time and money.What is a healthy use of technology devices? That is the vital question. Who is really in charge of my life? That is what people need to ask themselves if we are to have any chance of breaking up false beliefs about their use of technology. When we can live happily without using so much technology for a day or a week, then we can regain control and personal freedom, become the master of technology and discover what there is to enjoy in life free of technology. Mae West is famous for proclaiming the wisdom that “too much of a good thing is wonderful.” But it’s time todiscover that it does not work for technology.Richard Fernandez, an executive coach at Google acknowledged that “we can be swept away by our technologies.” To break the grand digital connection people must consider how life long ago could be fantastic without today’s overused technology.39. The underlined word “allure” in Paragraph 2 probably means ______.A. advantageB. attractionC. adaptionD. attempt40. From the passage, technology companies aim to ______.A. attract people to buy their productsB. provide the latest informationC. improve people’s quality of lifeD. deal with cultural diseases41. It can be inferred from this passage that people ______.A. consider too much technology wonderfulB. have realized the harm of high-tech devicesC. can regain freedom without high-tech devicesD. may enjoy life better without overusing technologySection C (8%)Directions: Read the following passage. Fill in each blank with a proper sentence given in the box. Each sentence can be used only once. Note that there are two more sentences than you need.Are Your Clothes Causing Pollution?Very small pieces of plastic, called microfibers, are polluting rivers and oceans.______42______ Clothes worn for outdoor activities and exercise are often made of artificial material, which is useful in keeping warm. But they contain very small plastic fibers, which may also be harming the environment when you wash them. When people wash these clothes, very small pieces go down the drain with the wash water.Studies on microfibers in the environmentPollution caused by plastic is not new, but recent studies have shown the effect of microfibers in the environment. Studies show very small microfibers are ending up in our waters, which may come from waste water treatment factories. A 2015 study found them in fish from California.Microfibers, effect on food suppliesBeyond the waterways, the researchers say microfibers may end up in soil and agriculturallands. _________43_________ This means there is much to be learned about microfibers and the environment. Some studies have shown that microfibers end up inside sea animals, like oysters._______44_______ Researchers say that the fibers tend not to move into the tissue of the fish, but it needs more study.Steps to save or keep microfibers from the environmentUntil more information becomes known, there are steps to take to reduce the amount of microfibers in the environment. People should use less of the artificial materials. If we already have those in our lives and we’re using them, an important step would be washing them less._______45_______ A bag is being designed in which to wash these clothes. It traps the microfibers in the bag and it may be available for purchase soon.A. New technology may a1so help.B. So if these m icrofiber s have been found in fish and seafood, ar e they safe to eat?C. They can al so move around the atmosphere.D. Studies are conducted on how much of the microfibers is releasedE. The source of these mi crofibers may surprise you: your clothes.F. Washing machines keep microfibers from escaping with w ash waterIV．Summary Writing (10%)46.Directions: Read the following passage. Summarize the main idea and the main point(s) of the passage in no more than 60 words. Use your own words as far as possible.Sales StrategiesHow can a company improve its sales? One of the keys to more effective selling is for a company to first decide on its “sales strategy”. In other words, what is the role of the salesperson? Is the salesperson’s job narrative, suggestive, or consultive?The “narrative” sales strategy depends on the salesperson moving quickly into a standard sales presentation. His or her pitch highlights the benefit for the customer of a particular product or service. This approach is most effective for customers whose buying motives are basically the same and is also well suited to companies who have a large number of prospects on which to call.The “suggestive” approach is tailored more for the individual customer. The salesperson must be in a position to offer alternative recommendations that meet a particular customer’s needs. Onekey aspect of the suggestive approach is the need for the salesperson to engage the buyer in some sort of discussion. The salesperson can then use the information from the customer to suggest an appropriate product or service.The final strategy demands that a company’s sales staff act as “consultants” for the buyer. In this role, the salesperson must acquire a great deal of information about the customer. They do this through market research, surveys, and face-to-face discussions. Using this information, the salesperson makes a detailed presentation tailored specifically to a consumer’s needs.More and more sales teams are switching from a narrative or a suggestive approach to a more consultative strategy. As a result, corporations are looking more at intangibles (无形资产) such as creativity and analytical skills and less at educational background and technical skills._____________________________________________________________________ _____________________________________________________________________ _____________________________________________________________________ _____________________________________________________________________ _____________________________________________________________________ _____________________________________________________________________ ____________________________________________________________V.

cooperation,discipline,leadership,and self-control.Third,youth sport programs are(29) _______for the learning of motor skills(运动技能);these motor skills serve as a foundation for future national sport stars and recreational adult sport(30) _______.When coachers develop activities for youth practices and when sport(31) _______design youth-sport programs,they must consider the implication of deliberate play and deliberate practice.Research from Telama(2006)states that regular participation in deliberate play or deliberate practice activities during childhood and youth(ages nine to eighteen)increases the likelihood of participation in sports during adulthood by six times for both males and females.Côté(2002)defines deliberate play activities in sport as those designed to maximize enjoyment.These activities are4regulated by flexible rules(32) _______from standardized sport rules and are set up by the children or by an involved adult.Children(33) _______change rules to find a point where their game is similar to the actual sport but still allows for play at their level.For example,children may change soccer and basketball rules to suit their needs and environment(e.g.in the street.on a playing field or in someone’s backyard).When(34) _______in deliberate play activities,children are less concerned with the outcome of their outcome of their behavior(whether they win or lose)than with the behavior(having fun).On the other hand,Ericsson(1993)suggests that the most effective learning occurs through involvement in highly structured activities defined as deliberate practice.Deliberate practice activities require effort,produce no immediate rewards,and are(35) _______by the goal of improving performance rather than the goal of enjoyment.When individuals are involved in deliberate play,they experiment with different combinations of behaviors,but not necessarily in the most effective way to improve performance.In contrast,when(36) _______are involved in deliberate practice,they exhibit behavior.focused on improving performance by the most effective means available.For example,the backhand skill in tennis could be learned and improved over time by playing matches or by creating fun practice situations.However,players could more effectively improve their backhand performance by practicing drills that might be considered less enjoyable. Although the drills used in most effective means available practice might not be the most enjoyable, they might be the most relevant to improving performance.Section BDirections:Read the following three passages.Each passage is followed by several questions or unfinished statements.For each of them there are four choices marked A,B,C and D.Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage you have just read.(A)The2012London Olympics had enough problems to worry about.But one more has just been added-a communications blackout caused by solar storms.After a period of calm within the Sun,scientists have detected the signs of a fresh cycle of sunspots that could peak in2012,just in time for the arrival of the Olympic torch in London.Now scientists believe that this peak could result in vast solar explosions that could throw5billions of tons of charged matter towards the Earth,causing strong solar storms that could jam the telecommunications satellites and Internet links sending five Olympic broadcast from London."The Sun's activity has a strong influence on the Earth.The Olympics could be in the middle of the next solar maximum which could affect the functions of communications satellites,"said Professor Richard Harrison,head of space physics at the Rutherford Appleton Laboratory in Oxfordshire.At the peak of the cycle,violent outbursts called coronal mass ejections(日冕物质抛射)occur in the Sun's atmosphere,throwing out great quantities of electrically-charged matter."A coronal mass ejection can carry a billion tons of solar material into space at over a million kilometers per hour.Such events can expose astronauts to a deadly amount,can disable satellites,cause power failures on Earth and disturb communications,"Professor Harrison added.The risk is greatest during a solar maximum when there is the greatest number of sunspots.Next week in America,NASA is scheduled to launch a satellite for monitoring solar activity called the Solar Dynamics Observatory(SDO),which will take images of the Sun that are10times clearer than the most advanced televisions available.The Rutherford Appleton Laboratory helped to make the high-tech cameras that will capture images of the solar flares(太阳耀斑)and explosions as they occur.Professor Richard Hold away,the lab's director,said that the SDO should be able to provide early warning of a solar flare or explosion big enough to affect satellite communications on Earth "If we have advance warning,we'll be able to reduce the damage.What you don't want is things switching off for a week with no idea of what's caused the problem,"he said.37.The phrase"communications blackout"in Paragraph1most probably refers to________during the2012Olympics.A.the extinguishing of the Olympic torchB.the collapse of broadcasting systemsC.the transportation breakdown in LondonD.the destruction of weather satellites38.What can be inferred about the solar activity described in the passage?6A.The most fatal matter from the coronal falls onto Earth.B.The solar storm peak occurs in the middle of each cycle.C.It takes several seconds for the charged matter to reach Earth.D.The number of sunspots declines after coronal mass ejections.39.According to the passage,NASA will launch a satellite to________.A.take images of the solar systemB.provide early warning of thunderstormsC.keep track of solar activitiesD.improve the communications on Earth40.Which of the following might be the best title of the passage?A.Solar Storms:An Invisible KillerB.Solar Storms:Earth Environment in DangerC.Solar Storms:Threatenting the Human RaceD.Solar Storms:Human Activities to Be Troubled(B)Elixirwritten by Eric WaltersTwelve-year-old Roth becomes a friend of Dr.Banting and his assistant,Mr.Best, who are in search of a cure for diabetes(糖尿病).She finds herself torn between her sympathy for the animals being experimented on and her friendship with Banting and Best.George Washington Carverwritten by Elizabeth MacleodMeet the"Peanut specialist",George Washington Carver,the inventor and professor who made over325 products out of peanuts.Through his agricultural research,he also greatly improved the lives of countless black farmers in the southern Unite States.

At least until spring arrived,by which time they were dealing with damaging floods.If you fear the heyday of the snowman has passed,don’t worry:I’ve learned that some explosive snowman history is still being made today.Every year since1818,the people of Zurich, Switzerland,celebrate the beginning of spring by blowing up a snowman.On the third Monday of April,the holiday Sechselauten is kicked off when a cotton snowman called the Boogg is stuffed with explosive and paraded through town by bakers and other tradesmen who throw bread to the crowds.The parade ends with the Boogg being placed on a40-foot pile of firewood.After the bells of the Church of St.Peter have rung six times,representing the passing of winter,the pile is lit. When the snowman explodes,winter is considered officially over--the quicker it is burnt down, the longer summer is said to be.45.According to the passage,why did snowmen become a phenomenon in the Middle Ages?A.People thought of snow as holy art supplies.9B.People longed to see masterpieces of snow.C.Building snowmen was a way for people to express themselves.D.Building snowmen helped people develop their skill and thought.46.“The heyday of the snowman”(paragraph4)means the time when______.A.snowmen were made mainly by artistsB.snowmen enjoyed great popularityC.snowmen were politically criticizedD.snowmen caused damaging floods47.In Zurich,the blowing up of the Boogg symbolizes_______.A.the start of the paradeB.the coming of a longer summerC.the passing of the winterD.the success of tradesmen48.What can be concluded about snowmen from the passage?A.They were appreciated in historyB.They have lost their valueC.They were related to moviesD.They vary in shape and sizeV.Translation(15%)49.去年以来，这种商品的价格保持不变。

AWorld’s most thrilling road tripsRoute 66, AmericaSurely one of the most famous road trips ever, the Route 66 highway covers eight American states and more than 2,400 miles.The book details some of Route 66’s history, how the road which connects Chicago to Los Angeles was used by soldiers, dreamers and now nostalgia-seekers.Icefield Parkway, CanadaThis 143-mile trip through the mountains and dense forests of Canada between Lake Louise and Jasper, is likely to be unforgettable. Snowcapped peaks, glinting glaciers, azure lakes and more wildlife than your average safari—the road from Lake Louise to Jasper is hard to top for scenic splendour.Hana Highway, HawaiiThis journey might only be 32 miles long, but given that this includes more than 600 curves in the road and 54 (mostly one-lane) bridges, the stretch between Twin Falls and Hana in Hawaii is something of an adventure.Blue Ridge Parkway, USAWinding through America’s Blue Ridge Parkway during the fall months is surely one of the most dramatic experiences road travelers can have.The foliage makes for a visual feast: reds, yellows and oranges cloak the surrounding landscape as you travel down through Virginia and North Carolina.21. How many thrilling roads mentioned in the text are in the USA?A. one.B. two.C. three.D. four.22. In which road may you meet Brown bear during the road trip?A. Icefield Parkway, Canada.B. Hana Highway, Hawaii.C. Blue Ridge Parkway, USA.D. Route 66, America.23. When is the best time to visit Blue Ridge Parkway, USA?A. January.B. March.C. August.D. September.24. The passage is most likely to be taken from _______.A. Website.B. Newspaper.C. A travel brochure.D. A book review.BCompared to other crows, those from the Pacificisland of New Caledonia, located east of Australia, are master toolmakers and users, second only to humans and on a level with chimps when it comes to finding novel uses for everyday objects. In their natural forest environment, the midnight black birds shape twigs(细枝), leaves and even their own feathers into tools forrooting out insects in dead wood.The crows create tools to specific needs. They examine a problem and then pick or design a decent tool. For example, faced with a snack hidden in a small tree hole, a crow will cut and adjust a leafy oak branch to just the right width to dig the hole.Scientists have found that crows living on different parts of the island show variations in tool shapes. A discovery suggests that young crows learn to make tools in a particular way from relatives and other crows living nearby. If so, it would mean the birds possess a culture of tool technology like that of humans.To test this idea, researchers at the University of Oxford in the U.K. hand-raised four New Caledonian crows---two received lessons in tool use from their human foster parents, while the other two did not. Despite their different upbringings, all four young birds used sticks to get food form crevices(裂缝), proving that crow have a native ability for tool use. However, Uek and Nalik, the two birdsschooled in toolmaking, carried and inserted twigs into crevices faster and more often than Oiseau and Corbeau, the two innocent crow.The researchers suggest that recognition gained from studying crows could be applied to humans to help understand how tool use evolved in our own species.25. What skill of crows is specially stressed in the passage?A. Seeking foodsources.B. Copying human activities.C. Making full use of tools.D. Changing the surrounding environment.26. What does the underlined work“decent” inParagraph 2 mean?A. Sharp.B. Precious.C. Delicate.D. Appropriate.27. What can we infer from the research by the University of Oxford?A. Crows can be easily raised and taught by humans.B. Tool use among crows is gained by learning.C. Human parenting should be tested on other animals.D. Crows’ ability to use tools can be improved by learning.CKatie Blomquist, a 1st grade teacher at Pepperhill Elementary School in North Charleston, South Carolina, learned last year that one of her students wanted a bike for his birthday. But his parents could not afford it. So, like most other people that you will find here on InspireMyKids, she decided to do something about it!First, she thought about how to get a bike for that child. Then, she decided to think bigger. How could she also give a bike to his brother? Or how about a bike to every child in her class? Finally, her vision got even bolder! How might she find a bike for the 650 kids that make up her entire school?Many children at Pepperhill live in poverty and even though Ms. Blomquist could not afford to buy the bikes herself, she felt she now had to do something about it!So, she decided to start a GoFundMe campaign to raise money. Her request caught on! In less than 6 months, over 1,000 donors from around her community, and even 10 countries around the world, provided over $80,000 in donations! This was enough to buy more than 600 bikes for Pepperhill students, along with helmets and locks!After a big ceremony to surprise the kids, Ms. Blomquist is not done. Katie Blomquist is starting a charity called“Going Places,” with a mission(使命)“to bring joy to deserving children from low income families by providing them with bikes, swim lessons, summer camp opportunities, and more. This will enrich their growth and fuel their imaginations, supporting the most basic childhood right– a right to joy.”28.What led Ms. Blomquist to start GoFundMe campaign originally?A. Her dream for a bike.B. A kid’s birthday wish.C. Her bad family conditions.D. A moving story on ImspireMyKids.29. What is Pepperhill Elementary School like?A. Its education level is well below average.B. It has no access to convenient transportation.C. It’s a community school intended for the poor.D. Its students all come from a poor background.30. What do the figures in Paragraph 3 indicate?A. The large number of kind donators.B. The great advantage of GoFundMe.C. The immediate success of GoFundMe.D. The huge economic benefits of GoFundMe.31. Which words can best describe Katie Blomquist?A. Sympathetic and devoted.B. Aggressive and independent.C. Generous and honest.D. Responsible and sociable.DHave you ever seen a car without a driver? It sounds crazy, but these computer-driven driverless cars will soon be filling roads near you. Companies have been designing and testing these cars.So how do they work? The cars have sensors which can detect other cars and objects on the road. Sensors on the wheels also help when parking, so the car knows how far it is from the edge of the road or other parked cars. Road signs are read by cameras, and satellite navigation systems are used, so the car knows how to get to your destination. All you have to do is type in the address! Finally, a central computer system takes in all the information it receives from the sensors and cameras and processes it to work out when to accelerate, brake and move. Sounds like your idea of heaven? Sitting back, looking out of the windows and even watching a film while “driving” would be possible with this new technology. You wouldn’t have to worry about remembering directions to where you’re going. In addition, computers are generally more efficient drivers than humans, meaning emissions would be reduced, they would also drive more safely than people---their attention won’t be taken away, obey the speed limit and have quicker reactions in case of an emergency.However, there are many disadvantages of driverless cars. Computers would have difficulties making moral decisions: if a child ran into the road, would the computer choose to hit the child or change directionsuddenly and potentially kill the car’s passengers?Although being driven around by a machine would perhaps mean that no one needs a driving licence, saving money for everyone, many people would be put out of a job by the dawn of driverless cars. I’m not convinced whether I’d want a driverless car--- but it’s only a matter of time before they’ll become more affordable and common on our roads.32. What can the sensors do?A. Read road signs.B. Locate cars exactly.C. Signal the car to move.D. Recognize road conditions.33. What does the underlined work “it” in Paragraph 2 refer to?A. The information.B. The sensor.C. The driverless car.D. The navigation system.34. What is the advantage of driverless cars?A. They can make moral decisions.B. They can drive at a higher speed.C. They provide all the comforts of home.D. They’re more sensitive to emergencies.35. What’s the author’s attitude towards driverless cars?A. Doubtful.B. Objective.C. Supportive.D. Hopeful.第二节(共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分)根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。
