Find an issue you are interested in and learnmore. Volunteer or, if you can, contribute a little money to a cause. Whatever you do, don’tbe a bystander. Get involved.

Whenthe world was still populated by hunter-gatherers, small, tightly knit(联系)groups developed their own patterns of speech independent of eachother. Some language experts believe that 10,000 years ago, when the world had just fiveto ten million people, they spoke perhaps 12,000 languages between them.Soon afterwards, many of those people started settling down to become farmers, and theirlanguages too became more settled and fewer in number. In recent centuries, trade,industrialisation,the development of the nation-state and the spread of universal compulsory education, especially globalisation and better communications in the past few decades, allhave caused many languages to disappear, and dominant languages such as English, Spanish andChinese are increasingly taking over.At present, the world has about 6,800 languages. The distribution of these languages ishugely uneven. The general rule is that mild zones have relatively few languages, often spoken by many people, while hot, wet zones have lots, often spoken by small numbers. Europe has only around 200 languages;the Americas about 1,000;Africa 2,400;and Asia and the Pacific perhaps3,200, of which Papua New Guinea alone accounts for well over 800. The median number(中位数) of speakers is a mere 6,000, which means that half the world’s languages are spoken byfewer people than that.Already well over 400 of the total of 6,800 languages are close to extinction(消亡), with only a few elderly speakers left.Pick, at random, Busuu in Cameroon(eight remaining speakers), Chiapaneco in Mexico(150), Lipan Apache in the United States(two or three) or Wadjigu inAustralia(one, with a question-mark):none of these seems to have much chance of survival.28.What can we infer about languages in hunter-gatherer times?A.They developed very fast.B.They were large in number.C.They had similar patterns.D.They were closely connected.29.Which of the following best explains“ dominant” underlined in paragraph 2?plex.B.Advanced.C.Powerful.D.Modern.30.How many languages are spoken by less than 6,000 people at present?A.About 6,800.B.About 3,400.C.About 2,400.D.About 1,200.31.What is the main idea of the text?A.New languages will be created.B.People ’s lifestyle s are reflected in languages.C.Human development results in fewer languages.D.Geography determines language evolution.D(2018 课标全国Ⅰ ,D)We may think we ’re a culture that gets rid of our worn technology at the first sight ofsomething shiny and new, but a new study shows that we keep using our old devices( 装置 ) well after they go out of style. That ’s bad news for the environment —and our wallets — as these outdated devices consume much more energy than the newer ones that do the same things.To figure out how much power these devices are using, Callie Babbitt and her colleaguesat the Rochester Institute of Technology in New York tracked the environmental costs for eachproduct throughout its life — from when its minerals are mined to when we stop using the device. This method provided a readout for how home energy use has evolved since the early 1990s. Devices were grouped by generation. Desktop computers, basic mobile phones, and box-set TVs defined1992. Digital cameras arrived on the scene in 1997. And MP3 players, smartphones, and LCD TVsentered homes in 2002, before tablets and e-readers showed up in 2007.As we accumulated more devices, however, we didn ’t throw out our old ones. “The living-room television is replaced and gets planted in the kids ’ room, and s uddenly one day, you havea TV in every room of the house, ”said one researcher. The average number of electronic devices rose from four per household in 1992 to 13 in 2007. We’re not just keeping these old devices — we continue to use them. According to the analysis of Babbitt ’s team, old desktop monitors andbox TVs with cathode ray tubes are the worst devices with their energy consumption andcontribution to greenhouse gas emissions( 排放 ) more than doubling during the 1992 to 2007window.So what’s the soluti on( 解决方案 )?The team’s data only went up to 2007, but the researchers also explored what would happen if consumers replaced old products with new electronics thatserve more than one function, such as a tablet for word processing and TV viewing. They foundthat more on-demand entertainment viewing on tablets instead of TVs and desktop computers could cut energy consumption by 44%.32.What does the author think of new devices?A.They are environment-friendly.B.They are no better than the old.C.They cost more to use at home.D.They go out of style quickly.33.Why did Babbitt’s team conduct the research?A.To reduce the cost of minerals.B.To test the life cycle of a product.C.To update consumers on new technology.D.To find out electricity consumption of the devices.34.Which of the following uses the least energy?A.The box-set TV.B.The tablet.C.The LCD TV.D.The desktop computer.35.What does the text suggest people do about old electronic devices?A.Stop using them.B.Take them apart.C.Upgrade them.D.Recycle them.第二节 ( 共 5 小题 ; 每小题 2 分 , 满分 10 分 )(2017 课标全国Ⅲ )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。

you need．The key to getting the most out of these online resources is toknow how they can best be used to your advantage．FacebookAlthough Facebook can be one of your biggest time﹣wasters and distractions when you are supposed to be getting work done，it can also be one of your most valuable resources．Most of your classmates will probably have a Facebook account，so anyone you need to connect with about a class you missed or about a problem is usually just a few clicks away．SparkNotesWith a free library of history timeline，philosophy study guides and library summaries，SparkNotes has covered just about any reading﹣related jam you find yourself in．Just run a search for the book，play，or short summary of the material you are supposed to read．Amazon．comDo you finish every term

constantly shocked at how little talented people earn．I heard the other day that less than 5percent of Americans earn more than 100，000ayear．Abusinessconsultantwhospecializesinthemedicaltradewastellingmehowmany doctorsanddentistsstrugglefinancially．Itwasthisbusinessconsultantwhogavemethep hrase，"Theyareoneskillawayfromgreatwealth．"Thereisanoldsayingthatgoes，"Jobmeans"justoverbroke（破产And unfortunately，I would say that the saying applies to millions of people．Because school does not think financial intelligence is intelligence，most workers"live within their means"．They work and they pay the bills．Instead I recommend to young people to seek work for what they will learn，more than what they will earn．When I ask the classes I teach，"How many of you can cook a better hamburger than McDonald's？"almost all the students raise their hands．I then ask，"So if most of you can cook a better hamburger，how come McDonald's makes more money than you？"The answer is obvious：McDonald's is excellent at business systems．The reason so many talented people are poor is because they focus on bui1ding a better hamburger and know little or nothing about business systems．The world is filled with talented poor people．They focus on perfecting their skills at building a better hamburger rather than the skills of selling and delivering the hamburger．25．The author mentions the mechanic in the first paragraph to show that ．A．he has a sharp sense of hearingB．he is ready to help othersC．he is just one of the talented peopleD．he knows little about car repairing26．The underlined part in the third paragraph can be best replaced by" "．A．spend more than they can affordB．do in their own

is，they are concerned with their own appearance and actions too much．Negative thoughts are constantly occurring in their minds：What kind of impression am I making？Do they like me？Do I sound stupid？Am I wearing unattractive clothes？It is obvious that such uncomfortable feelings must affect people unfavorably．A person's self﹣concept is reflected in the way he or she behaves and the way a person behaves affects other people's reactions．In general，the way people think about themselves has a deep effect on all areas of their lives．Shy people，who have low respect，are likely to be passive and easily influenced by others．They need faith that they are doing"the right thing"．Shy people are very sensitive to criticism．Itmakes them feel inferior（自卑）．They also find it difficult to be pleased by praises because they believe they are unworthy of praise．A shy person may respond to a praise with a statement like this one："You're just saying that to make me feel good，I know it's not true．"It is clear that，while self ﹣awareness is a healthy quality，overdoing it is harmful．Can shyness be completely got rid of，or at least reduced？Fortunately，people can overcome shyness with determination since shyness goes hand in hand with lack of self respect．It is important for people to accept their weakness as well as their strengths．Each one of us has his or her own characteristics．We are interested

nothing to do with lack of self respectB．help us to live up to our full developmentC．enable us to understand ourselves betterD．be overcome with determination．33．Forget about the"post﹣1995 generation"．Young people born in 1995 or later have another name in English﹣Generation Z．Now entering adulthood and soon to join the workforce，Generation Z grew up in a special period of time﹣a time in which technology developed fast，social changes happened every day，the internet became universal and，sadly，so did global terrorism．It is believed that Generation Z is the generation that is going to shape our future，which is why policy makers，sociologists and company leaders are trying their best to understand these young people．So，what are Gen Z﹣ers really like？Most people agree that the single biggest difference between Gen Z and other generations is how connected they are．This is a group of people who have been familiar with social media as soon as they were born．Social media has changed the way Gen Z﹣ers communicate with each other and how they get and understand information．"We are the first true digital natives．I can almost create a document，edit it，post a photo on Instagram and talk on the phone，all at the same time，"said Hannah Payne，an 18﹣year﹣old student at UCLA，according to The New York Times．"Generation Z takes in information very fast and loses interest just as fast．"It may be true that Generation Z﹣ers have a shorter attention span （注意力持续时间）than a goldfish，but sice they grew up among social changes，they are more active in politics．According to the British Election Study，58 percent of 18﹣t0﹣24﹣year﹣old voted in the 2015 general election in the UK，a big jump from 38 percent in 2005．Generation Z﹣ers are also culture creators．"Growing up with the internet has freed this generation from traditional cultural expression．"Wrote Grace Masback，a Huffington Post blogger and a Gen Z﹣er herself．According to Masback，these young people are no longer willing to let their creativity．According to Masback，these young people are no longer willing to let their creativity be limited by their parents of traditional rules．They watch videos and read news online instead of on TV，and they share their experiences on social media．"We decide what kind of content we want to experience and choose how we experience it，"wrote Masback．33．Which is TRUE about Gen Z﹣ers，according to the article？A．Face﹣to﹣face communication is challenging for themB．Often doing many things at the same time affects their efficiencyC．They don't bother to think about the information they at carefullyD．They show more interest in politics than in other fields34．What can we infer from the last two paragraphs？A．Gen Z﹣ers enjoy great freedom to express themselvesB．Gen Z﹣ers enjoy teaching their parents about new cultural trendsC．Gen Z﹣ers are against traditional cultureD．Gen Z﹣ers are unwilling to obey their parents35．Which word can best describe the author's attitude towards Generation Z？A．WorriedB．CriticalC．AppreciativeD．Neutral（中立的）36．根据短文内容，从短文后选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项．选项中有两项为多余选项．Most cars have seat belts as part of their equipment．Seat belts protect drivers and passengers in case of accidents．They also reduce the effect of a crash on the body．（36）Worldwide，the devices have protected up to a million people．America first recognized the invention of an automobile seat belt in 1849．The government gave a patent to an engineer named Edward Claghorn of New York City so that others would not copy his invention of a safety device．（37）This early version of safety belt was said to include hooks and other attachments for securing the person to a fixed object．Other inventors followed with different versions of the seat belt．（38） It resulted from the work of a Swedish engineer，Nils Bohlin．His three﹣point，lap and shoulder seat belt first appeared on cars in Europe 50 years ago．Nils Bohlin recognized that both the upper and lower body needed to be held securely in place．His invention contained a cloth strap（带子）that was placed across the chest and another strap across his hips（臀部）．（39）Volvo was the first company to offer the modern seat belt to its cars．This company also provided use of Nils Bohlin's design to other car﹣makers．（40）He received a gold medal from the Royal Swedish Academy of Engineering Sciences in 1995．He died in Sweden in 2002．A．Claghorn called his invention a safety beltB．The design joined the straps next to the hip．C．The Swedish engineer won many honors for his seat belt．D．Safety experts say that seat belts save thousands of lives a year in America alone．E．There are many companies adopting Nils Bohlin's invention of the belt．F．Claghorn was a promising young engineer with many honors all his life．G．But more than 100 years passed

Whenthe world was still populated by hunter-gatherers, small, tightly knit（联系）groups developed their own patterns of speech independent of each other. Some language experts believe that 10,000 years ago, when the world had just five to ten million people, they spoke perhaps 12,000 languages between them.Soon afterwards, many of those people started settli ng dow n to become farmers, and theirIanguages too became more settled and fewer in number. In recent centuries, trade,industrialisation, the development of the nation-state and the spread of universal compulsory4/ 15educati on, especially globalisatio n and better com muni cati ons in the past few decades, allhave caused many Ian guages to disappear, and domin ant languages such as En glish, Spanish and Chin ese are in creas in gly tak ing over.At present, the world has about 6,800 Ianguages. The distribution of these Ianguages is hugely uneven. The general rule is that mild zones have relatively few Ianguages, often spoken by many people, while hot, wet zones have lots, often spoken by small numbers. Europe has only around 200 Ian guages;the Americas about 1,000;Africa 2,400;a nd Asia and the Pacific perhaps3,200, of which Papua New Guinea alone acco unts for well over 800. The media n nu mber( 中位数)of speakers is a mere 6,000, which means that half the world ' s Ianguages are spoken byfewer people tha n that.Already well over 400 of the total of 6,800 Ian guages are close to ext in cti on( 消亡),withonly a few elderly speakers left. Pick, at random, Busuu in Cameroon(eight remaining speakers), Chiapaneco in Mexico(150), Lipan Apache in the United States(two or three) or Wadjigu in Australia( one, with a questi on-mark): none of these seems to have much cha nee of survival.28. What can we infer about Ian guages in hun ter-gatherer times?A. They developed very fast.B. They were large in nu mber.C. They had similar patter ns.D. They were closely conn ected.29.

Geography determ ines Ian guage evoluti on.D（2018课标全国I ,D）We may think we ' re a culture that gets rid of our worn technology at the first sight of something shiny and new, but a new study shows that we keep using our old devices（装置） well after they go out of style. That 's bad news for the environment —and our wallets —as theseoutdated devices consume much more energy than the newer ones that do the same things.To figure out how much power these devices are using, Callie Babbitt and her colleagues at the Rochester Institute of Technology in New York tracked the environmental costs for each product throughout its life —from when its minerals are mined to when we stop using the device. This method provided a readout for how homeenergy use has evolved since the early 1990s. Devices were grouped by generation. Desktop computers, basic mobile phones, and box-set TVs defined 1992. Digital cameras arrived on the scene in 1997. And MP3 players, smartphones, and LCD TVs entered homes in 2002, before tablets and e-readers showed up in 2007.As we accumulated more devices, however, we didn 't throw out our old ones. “The living-room television is replaced and gets planted in the kids ' room, and s uddenly one day, you have a TV in every room of the house, ” said one researcher. The average number of electronic devices rose from four per household in 1992 to 13 in 2007. We' re not just keeping these old devices —we continue to use them. According to the analysis of Babbitt ' s team, old desktop monitors andbox TVs with cathode ray tubes are the worst devices with their energy consumption and contribution to greenhouse gas emissions（排放） more than doubling during the 1992 to 2007window.So what' s the soluti on（解决方案）?The team' s data only went up to 2007, but the researchers also explored what would happen if consumers replaced old products with new electronics that serve more than one function, such as a tablet for word processing and TV viewing. They found that more on-demand entertainment viewing on tablets instead of TVs and desktop computers could cut energy consumption by 44%.32. What does the author think of new devices?A. They are environment-friendly.B. They are no better than the old.C. They cost more to use at home.D. They go out of style quickly.33. Why did Babbitt ' s team conduct the research?A. To reduce the cost of minerals.B. To test the life cycle of a product.C. To update consumers on new technology.D. To find out electricity consumption of the devices.34. Which of the followi ng uses the least en ergy?A.The box-set TV.B.The tablet.C.The LCD TV.D.The desktop computer.35. What does the text suggest people do about old electr onic devices?A.Stop using them.B.Take them apart.C.Upgrade them.D.Recycle them.第二节（共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分）（2017课标全国川）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。

We were focusing on the theme of loving others in practical ways through our gifts, and something in particular happened during one of the sessions（会议）will remain imprinted in memory.A young Syrian woman (Lilith) was invited to the conference at the last minute, and everyone seemed surprised and delighted that she’d actually come. Just a few days earlier, Lilith had fled her country and found refuge with one of the women attending the conference. As an Orthodox Christian in Syria, she and her loved ones had become attacked targets of violent terrorist groups in the country’s ongoing civil war.Lilith had witnessed horrors no one of her young age should ever see. Despite the further danger it presented, she’d decided to leave her home and her family to find safety here in America. Knowing some of her story, and seeing her sitting through the sessions at the retreat（畏缩不前）---head, covered in a scarf, bowed toward the floor---broke my heart. Lilith’s story touched all of us, including Pam, who was quilt maker. Pam had just finished a beautiful quilt, and had brought it with her. She, along with a few of the leaders, decided to give it to Lilith as a symbol of their comfort and love.During our last session, Lilith was called forward and prayed over, hugged, and wrapped up in that beautiful quilt. I thought of the many hours Pam undoubtedly spent working on it, and the terrible events that led Lilith to this moment---surrounded by the beauty and love quiltembodied. I wept. When they told her it was for her, she wept.25. What is the purpose of the women’s conference?A. To help others in a practical way.B. To win equal rights for women.C. To get together to dance and sing.D. To exchange gifts with each other.26. Why did Lilith go to America?A. To attend the women’s conference.B. To find safety.C. To find her family.D. To find a better job.27. From this passage, we know that the writer is____________.A. enthusiasticB. sympatheticC. intelligentD. talented28. What is the meaning of the underlined word?A. a place of interestB. a place of dangerC. a place of conferenceD. a place of shelterCY ou know the feeling that you have left your phone at home and feel anxious, as if you have lost your connection to the world. “Nomophobia”(无手机恐惧症) affects teenagers and adults alike. Y ou can even do an online test to see if you have it. Last week, researchers from Hong Kong warned that nomophobia is infecting everyone. Their study found that people who use their phones to store, share and access personal memoriessuffer most. When users were asked to describe how they felt about their phones, words such as “hurt”(neck pain was often reported) and “alone”predicted higher levels of nomophobia.“The findings of our study suggest that users regard smartphones as their extended selves and get attached to the devices,”said Dr. Kim Ki Joon. “People experience feelings of anxiety and unpleasantness when separated from their phones.”Meanwhile, an American study shows that smartphone separation can lead to an increase in heart rate and blood pressure.So can being without your phone really give you separation anxiety? Professor Mark Griffiths, psychologist and director of the International Gaming Research Unit at Nottingham Trent University, says it is what is on the phone that counts-the social networking that creates Fomo (fear of missing out).“We are talking about an internet-connected device that allows people to deal with lots of aspects of their lives,”says Griffiths. “Y ou would have to surgically remove a phone from a teenager because their whole life is rooted in this device.”Griffiths thinks attachment theory, where we develop emotional dependency on the phone because it holds details of our lives, is a small part of nomophobia. For “screenagers”, it is Fomo that creates the most separation anxiety. If they can’t see what’s happening on Snapchat orInstagram, they become panic-stricken about not knowing what’s going on socially. “But they adapt very quickly if you take them on holiday and there’s no internet,”says Griffiths.29. Which of the following may Dr. Kim Ki Joon agree with?A. We waste too much time on phones.B. Phones have become part of some users.C. Addiction to phones makes memories suffer.D. Phones and blood pressure are closely linked.30. According to Giffiths, we get nomophobia because .A. we are accustomed to having a phone on usB. we need our phones to help us store informationC. we worry we may miss out what our friends are doingD. we fear without phones we will run into a lot of trouble31. Where can you probably find the above passage?A. In a research report.B. In a fashion brochure.C. In a science textbook.D. In a popular science magazine. DAre some people born clever, and others born stupid? Or is intelligence developed by our environment and our experience? Strangely enough, the answer to these questions is yes. To some degree our intelligence is given to us at birth, and no amount of education can make a genius out of a child born with low intelligence. On the other hand, a child who lives in aboring environment will develop his intelligence less than one who lives in rich and varied surroundings. Thus the limits of person’s intelligence are fixed at birth, whether or not he reaches those limits will depend on his environment. This view, now held by most experts, can be supported in a number of ways.It is easy to show that intelligence is to some degree something we are born with. The closer the blood relationship between two people, the closer they are likely to be intelligent. Thus if we take two unrelated people at random from population, it is likely that their degree of intelligence will be completely different. If, on the other hand, we take two identical twins, they will very likely be as intelligent as each other. Relations like brothers and sisters, parents and children, usually have similar intelligence, and this clearly suggests that intelligence depends on birth. Imagine now that we take two identical twins and put them in different environments. We might send one, for example, to a university and the other to a factory where the work is boring. We would soon find differences in intelligence developing, and this indicates that environment as well as birth plays a part. This conclusion is also suggested by the fact that people who live in close contact with each other, but who are not related at all are likely to have similar degree of intelligence.32. The writer is in favor of the view that man’s intelligence is given to him .A. at birthB. through educationC. both at birth and through educationD. through environment of one’s family33. If a child is born with high intelligence, he can .A. surely become a geniusB. still become a genius if he isn’t given good educationC. reach his intelligence limits through his own effortsD. probably reach his intelligence limits in rich and varied surroundings34. The example of the twins going to a university and to a factory separately shows .A. the importance of their intelligenceB. the role of environment on intelligenceC. the importance of their positionsD. the part that birth plays35. The best title of the passage can be .A. On IntelligenceB. On GeniusC. Dependence on EnvironmentD. Effect of Education on Intelligence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最佳选项。

Your livesare busy enough doing homework, playing sports, making friends, seeking after your dreams.But we do think that you can live a more powerful life when you devote some of your time andenergy to something much larger than yourself. Find an issue you are interested in and learnmore. Volunteer or, if you can, contribute a little money to a cause. Whatever you do, don’tbe a bystander. Get involved. You may have the opportunity to make your biggestdifference when you’re older. But why not start now?Our own experience working together on health, development, and energy the last twentyyears has been one of the most rewarding parts of our lives.

Whenthe world was still populated by hunter-gatherers, small, tightly knit(联系)groups developed their own patterns of speech independent of eachother. Some language experts believe that 10,000 years ago, when the world had just fiveto ten million people, they spoke perhaps 12,000 languages between them.Soon afterwards, many of those people started settling down to become farmers, and theirlanguages too became more settled and fewer in number. In recent centuries, trade,industrialisation,the development of the nation-state and the spread of universal compulsory education, especially globalisation and better communications in the past few decades, allhave caused many languages to disappear, and dominant languages such as English, Spanish andChinese are increasingly taking over.At present, the world has about 6,800 languages. The distribution of these languages ishugely uneven. The general rule is that mild zones have relatively few languages, often spoken by many people, while hot, wet zones have lots, often spoken by small numbers. Europe has only around 200 languages;the Americas about 1,000;Africa 2,400;and Asia and the Pacific perhaps3,200, of which Papua New Guinea alone accounts for well over 800. The median number(中位数) of speakers is a mere 6,000, which means that half the world’s languages are spoken byfewer people than that.Already well over 400 of the total of 6,800 languages are close to extinction(消亡), with only a few elderly speakers left.Pick, at random, Busuu in Cameroon(eight remaining speakers), Chiapaneco in Mexico(150), Lipan Apache in the United States(two or three) or Wadjigu inAustralia(one, with a question-mark):none of these seems to have much chance of survival.28.What can we infer about languages in hunter-gatherer times?A.They developed very fast.B.They were large in number.C.They had similar patterns.D.They were closely connected.29.Which of the following best explains“ dominant” underlined in paragraph 2?plex.B.Advanced.C.Powerful.D.Modern.30.How many languages are spoken by less than 6,000 people at present?A.About 6,800.B.About 3,400.C.About 2,400.D.About 1,200.31.What is the main idea of the text?A.New languages will be created.B.People ’s lifestyle s are reflected in languages.C.Human development results in fewer languages.D.Geography determines language evolution.D(2018 课标全国Ⅰ ,D)We may think we ’re a culture that gets rid of our worn technology at the first sight ofsomething shiny and new, but a new study shows that we keep using our old devices(装置 ) well after they go out of style. That’s bad news for the environment—and our wallets— as these outdated devices consume much more energy than the newer ones that do the same things.To figure out how much power these devices are using, Callie Babbitt and her colleaguesat the Rochester Institute of Technology in New York tracked the environmental costs for eachproduct throughout its life— from when its minerals are mined to when we stop using the device. This method provided a readout for how home energy use has evolved since the early1990s.Devices were grouped by generation. Desktop computers, basic mobile phones, and box-set TVs defined1992. Digital cameras arrived on the scene in 1997. And MP3 players, smartphones, and LCD TVsentered homes in 2002, before tablets and e-readers showed up in 2007.As we accumulated more devices,however, we didn ’t throw out our old ones. “The living-room television is replaced and gets planted in the kids’ room, and s uddenly one day, you havea TV in every room of the house, ”said one researcher.The average number of electronic devices rose from four per household in1992 to13 in 2007. We’re not just keeping these old devices — we continue to use them. According to the analysis of Babbitt’s team, old desktop monitors andbox TVs with cathode ray tubes are the worst devices with their energy consumption andcontribution to greenhouse gas emissions(排放 ) more than doubling during the 1992 to 2007window.So what’s the soluti on( 解决方案 )?The team’s data only went up to 2007, but the researchers also explored what would happen if consumers replaced old products with new electronics thatserve more than one function, such as a tablet for word processing and TV viewing. They foundthat more on-demand entertainment viewing on tablets instead of TVs and desktop computers could cut energy consumption by 44%.32.What does the author think of new devices?A.They are environment-friendly.B.They are no better than the old.C.They cost more to use at home.D.They go out of style quickly.33.Why did Babbitt’s team conduct the research?A.To reduce the cost of minerals.B.To test the life cycle of a product.C.To update consumers on new technology.D.To find out electricity consumption of the devices.34.Which of the following uses the least energy?A.The box-set TV.B.The tablet.C.The LCD TV.D.The desktop computer.35.What does the text suggest people do about old electronic devices?A.Stop using them.B.Take them apart.C.Upgrade them.D.Recycle them.第二节 ( 共 5 小题 ; 每小题 2 分 , 满分 10 分 )(2017 课标全国Ⅲ )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。

Finding it much more difficult to compete with big brand names to dress super stars on big events, many young designers turn to (30) _______ (bet) on promising rising stars, expecting an overnight success if the young stars rise to sudden fame.Section BDirections: Fill in each blank with a proper word chosen from the box. Each word can only becould ___31___ people in highly competitive games and them quickly destroyed their human competitors.AI long ago mastered chess, the Chinese board game Go and even the Rubik’s cube, which it managed to solve in just 0.38 second.Now machines have a new game that will allow them to ___32___ humans: Jenga, the popular game in which players ___33___ remove pieces from an increasingly unstable tower of 54 blocks, placing each one on top until the entire structure would ___34___.A newly released video from MIT shows a robot developed by the school’s engineers playing the game with surprising accuracy. The machine is equipped with a soft gripper（夹子）, a force-sensing wrist and an external camera, allowing the robot to detect the tower’s ___35___ the way a human might do.Unlike in purely recognitive tasks or games such as chess or Go, playing the game of Jenga also requires mastery of physical acts such as pushing, pulling, placing, and arranging pieces. It must ___36___ interactive physical operation, where you have to touch the tower to learn how and when to move blocks.Imitating it is rather difficult, so the robot has to learn in the real world, by working with the real Jenga tower. Recently, a relevant research was published in the journal Science Robotics. Researchers say the robot demonstrates that machines can learn how to perform certain tasks through actual touching instead of relying heavily on visual ___37___. That physical ___38___ is significant, researchers say, because it provides further proof that robots can be used to perform ___39___ tasks, such as separating recyclable objects from landfill trash and assembling consumer products.In a cellphone assembly line, the felling of any component is coming from force and touch rather than vision. To become an accomplished Jenga player, the robot did not require as much repetitive practice as you might imagine. Hoping to avoid reconstructing a Jenga tower thousands of times, researchers developed a method that allowed the robot to be trained on about 300 games. Researchers say the robot has already begun facing off against humans, who remain ___40___ players -- for now.Ⅲ. Reading ComprehensionSection ADirections: For each blank in the following passage there are four words or phrases marked A, B, C and D. Fill in each blank with the word or phrase that best fits the context.From the nation’s earliest days, farming has held a crucial place in the American economy and culture. Farmers play an important role in any society, of course, since they feed people. But farming has been particularly ___41___ in the United States with intensified attention from civilians and government as well.Early in the nation’s life, farmers were seen as exemplifying economic ___42___ such as hard work, perseverance, and self-sufficiency. Moreover, many Americans, particularlyimmigrants who may have never held any land in the country, found that owning a farm was the ___43___ to enter the American economic system. They were immediately playing a part in the country’s economy.The American farmers have generally been quite successful at producing food, which has sometimes created their biggest problem. The agricultural industry has suffered periodic explosions of overproduction that have ___44___ prices, when the government have to step in and ___45___ the worst of these events.American farmers owe their ability to produce large outputs to various factors. For one thing, they work under ___46___ natural conditions. The American Midwest has some of the richest soil in the world. Rainfall is ___47___ over most areas of the country; rivers and underground water system permit extensive watering. Increasing use of high-quality ___48___ also has contributed to the American agriculture. It is not unusual to see today’s farmers skillfully operating ___49___ plows（犁）or harvesters. One farmer can manage large lands of farms. Fertilizers and pesticides（杀虫剂）are commonly used although some environmentalists ___50___it. Computers track farm operations, and even ___51__ technology is applied to find the best places to plant crops. US agriculture is among the most advanced in the world.Farmers still must fight with forces beyond their control, ___52___. Despite its generally temperate weather, North America also experiences floods and droughts. Such changes in the weather give agriculture its own unique cycles, often ___53___ the general economy. When negative factors hit farmers, calls for government assistance are particularly intense. In the 1930s, for instance, bad weather, and the Great Depression combined to push farms over the edge into a(n) ___54___ situation. The government then responded with ___55___ agricultural reforms including, most notably, a system of price supports, whose significance toward the large-scale campaign lasted for many years.41.

A. subject to B. unrelated to C. reduced to D. applied to54. A. vague B. desperate C. isolated D. feasible55. A. struggling B. traditional C. sweeping D. permanentSection 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 )After some blood tests, Dr. Strubs stood before me, a tall man, but short on personality and sporting a cold expression. “You have systemic lupus（狼疮）,” he said matter-of-factly. “Lupus,” he continued, “it an auto-immune disease and ... “ I remember certain details but mostly I remember him talking about children. “Children are no harm. But childbirth would jumpstart additional symptoms that could be life threatening. You already have two kids anyway.”As I got up to leave, shaken and drained, he said his parting words, “I would discourage any further research. There is no cure and nothing can prevent its progression.”Still, I did research lupus and its symptoms -tiredness and joint pain -were both consistent with what I was experiencing. And eventually some major organs could be affected, causing shutdown and possibly death.I studied and found out that echinacea（紫锥花）had a record in making immune system stronger. I decided that along with the plant I would strengthen my mindset by immersing myself in my family with my one-year-old son and three-year-old daughter.After another visit, I decided never to go back to Dr. Strubs. How could one endure repeatedly hearing desperate words coming from an emotionless mouth even though they were truth? The years passed. When I would feel tired and achy I pulled support from my children and their laughter.Finally, after eight years, I went to Dr. Kirkstein who was recommended by a friend. She stood there holding my had and looking into my eyes warmly.“So, let’s talk a little.”Instantly my defenses were down. Before I knew it, she had me running on and on about my children, my husband, my life and dreams. I told her about all the meaningful activities I was involved in, those things I might have never done without the disease.After several follow-up tests, and greater research into my family history, Dr. Kirkstein came to conclusive answer. I did not have systemic lupus. There must be something wrong with the initial tests 8 years before.I didn’t know whether I should jump for joy or scream because I had been living the last eight years in fear of a fatal disease. But then I realized that I had been living every day, not so much in fear, but happiness. Every day was a gift and I knew it.56. Dr. Strubs warned the author against having more children because_______.A. the process of giving birth might put her life in dangerB. taking care of children will gradually worsen her diseaseC. her disease will threaten the health of her childrenD. she already has enough children57. Why did the author stop seeing doctor Strubs after two visits?A. Because he was not qualified to treat her disease.B. Because he recommended Dr. Kirkstein to her.C. Because his cold attitude upset the author.D. Because she suspected his diagnosis about her disease.58. How did the author deal with the disease?A. She calmly waited for major organs to shut down.B. She took effective medicine regularly to fight the disease.C. She turned to Dr. Kirkstein to get cure for the disease.D. She tried to strengthen immune system and drew strength from family.59. Why did the author think every day in the past 8 years was a gift?A. Because systemic lupus was no longer a deadly disease.B. Because she made every day valuable in spite of disease.C. Because she received a gift every day from her family.D. Because she only occasionally felt pain and tiredness.( B )While faking and fierce looks are among animals’ great defenses, many species know that everyone runs from a big stink（臭气）too.Vulture（秃鹫）Vulture, are street sweepers that feast on the rotting flesh of dead animals, which benefits us by ridding our highways and landscapes of animal bodies and the bacteria they might carry. When vultures feel threatened they vomit（呕吐）, and the smell of vomited-on dead bodies puts off most predators. Throwing up allows the vulture to fly away more quickly -- and the vomit can hurt the aggressor’s eyes and fave.Opossum（负鼠）In some ways opossums have it easy. In order to become “dead”, they don’t have to fax anyone a death certificate. They just lie there with their tongues hanging out with the smell of dead flesh, sometimes for hours, effectively convincing potential predators（捕食者）they can find a much fresher meal elsewhere. Even if they keep getting attacked, they won’t move any more than a human statue until the threat has passed.Hoatzin（麝雉）Hold your nose and meet the hoatzin, a bird with a number of distinctions, not the least of which is that it smells like fresh cow shit. The animal mostly eats leaves and it’s the only bird known to digest by fermentation（发酵）, like a cow. This process is what causes its smell and has earned it the nickname the “stink bird”.Millipede（千足虫）Millipedes are tricky. For starters they look wormy. Their name is deceptive, too: Their legs number about 750. Their major defense is to curl up into a ball. They, though, also release a noxious defensive spray that can irritate skin, harm eyes, and leave a horrible smell on their attackers.Sea Hare（海兔）The graceful sea hare is plain in taste in the first place, so it’s no the most popular dish in the sea food chain. Nonetheless, this type of sea creature has a pretty creative smell-related defense that is almost the opposite of its smelly companions on this list. The sea hare gives out a slimy, purple ink, the substance which makes food less palatable to predators.Researchers using lobsters（龙虾）as model predators found that the sea hare ink blocks the lobster’s receptive mechanism. In other words, the sea hare gives its attacker the equivalent ofa stuffy nose so they don’t know how appealing it is.60. The sea hare defends itself from predators by _______.A. becoming plain in taste at the discovery of a predatorB. giving out purple ink to make itself invisible to predatorsC. releasing substance to make predators unable to smell itD. giving off smelly gas to try to drive predators away61. Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage ?A. The vulture carries bacteria so that predators dare not get close to it.B. The opossum fakes its death to avoid being targeted by predators.C. The hoatzin eats cow shit so that it is nick-named as “stink bird.”D. The gas released by millipede was basically harmless.62. The species that enjoys more than one defense mechanism is _______.A. vultureB. opossumC. millipedeD. sea hare( C )ARCHAEOLOGISTS（考古学家）GUIDED BY laser images of a remote region of northern Guatemala have discovered 20-foot-high walls, watchtowers, and other evidence that ancient Maya societies had been annoyed by warfare threat over many years. The finds have upended long-established impressions of a civilization that it tamed the jungle and built thriving cities, then declined and disappeared quietly beneath the dense tropical forest.Among the most surprising discoveries was a large stone complex now called La Cuernavilla. Built on a steep ridge, the heavily fortified（加固的）site included high walls, moats （护城河）which serves as the largest defensive system ever discovered in the region.“This was surprising,” says an archaeologist, “because we had a tendency to romanticize Maya warfare as something that was largely ritualized. But the fortifications we’re seeing now suggest an elevated level of antagonism over centuries. Rulers were so deeply alarmed that they felt the need to invest in all these hilltop fortifications. There is an almost visible sense of fear in this landscape.”All these findings owe credit to PACUNAM LIDAR Initiative, a laser survey of some 800 square miles of the Maya Biosphere Reserve in northern Guatemala. Using revolutionary laser technology, the survey revealed the long-hidden ruins of a sprawling pre-Columbian civilization that was far more complex and interconnected than most Maya specialists had supposed.Guided by the new Laser treasure maps, the LiDAR team deployed through the jungle over the past year to conduct hands-on investigations of more than a dozen of the most promising sites- most of which would have been imperceptible without LiDAR.“You could walk over the top of a major ruin and miss it,” says an archaeologist who’s part of the PACUNAM project. “But LiDAR picks up the patterns and makes the features pop out with surprising clarity.”Three-dimensional maps generated by the survey yielded surprises even at Tikal, the largest and most extensively explored archaeological site in Guatemala. The ancient city was at least four times bigger than previously thought, and surrounded by a massive ditch（沟）and fortified base stretching for miles.Archaeologists stress that LiDAR, for all its utility, will never see below the ground or yield direct dates of occupation. “We’ll still need to dig and hack our way through the jungle, but now we have a very accurate map to guide us.”63. How did people think of Maya before the discovery of the defense ruins?A. It was the most advanced civilization in the history of mankind.B. It was long under the threat of large-scale wars.C. Its rise and decline were under way peacefully.D. It was finally destroyed by a large-scale war.64. The underlined word antagonism is closest in meaning to _______.A. miseryB. revolutionC. population decreaseD. opposition65. Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage ?A. The military mechanism found in La Cuernavilla was intended for occupying more lands.B. The new laser technology was mainly used to enlarge the original site size.C. The LiDAR helps to avoid the traditional digging task in site exploration.D. The Tikal site was found to be protected by certain defense works.66. The passage is mainly about_______.A. people’s long-time misunderstanding of Maya civilizationB. discovery of Maya military works aided by new explore technologyC. the finding of a big warfare resulting in the disappearance of Maya civilizationD. The various advantages of new technologies in the field of archaeologySection CDirections：Read the following passage. Fill in each blank with a proper sentence given in the box.jaguar（美洲虎）enclosure at Wildlife World Zoo, Arizona. The jaguar ripped into her arm. Bystanders pulled her away before the animal could injure her further. She’s fine --so is the jaguar.This isn’t the first time a story of a person acting rudely to get close to a wild animal made headlines. Last year, a man jumped into a lion enclosure at a zoo for a close-up photo. ___67___ Multiple tourists in Yellowstone National Park have been attacked by bison（野牛）when they’ve gotten too close for a photo.It’s common sense not to get close to wild animals that can hurt you. It’s why zoos have barriers ---sometimes multiple walls --to keep people separated from animals. Signs posted everywhere state the obvious warning. Keep your hands off the cage.“Yet animals have become less real to us,” says an environmentalist. We see exotic animals most frequently in managed settings like zoos. ___68___ People are trying to take advantage of their rarity to show off on social media and ignore their fierceness.Media often normalize interaction with dangerous animals. Seeing a man like “Lion Whisperer” Kevin Richardson regularly play-fight with lions on TV, may send the message that these animals aren’t so dangerous after all.Social media are also perfectly positioned to contribute to the rise of animal selfies. Getting likes and comments provide instant satisfaction. Your self-esteem actually gets atemporary boost. To hold onto that feeling, people may go to more and more extremes to showcase the most exciting versions of themselves. It may not be enough to get a photo of a beautiful, dangerous animal from outside a cage. ___69___People’s careless approach can put the animal’s safety at risk as well. Zoo animals often must be killed to protect the person who’s entered their space. In fact, thrill-seekers actively endanger the lives of animals. ___70___ With the zoo environment, they take it for granted that animals are there for people, ignoring the fact that animals and humans are both equal existents in the nature.Ⅳ. summary WritingDirections: 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.Peter woke up one morning with all the usual signs of a nasty cold: severe headache and blocked nose. Then he did what almost everyone does on a day like this. He got up and went to work. Such is the state of what the human resources industry has come to call presenteeism.Many experts claim that presenteeism is now a bigger problem in the UK than absenteeism and could even help explain the country’s weak productivity growth. A growing number of companies are realizing presenteeism and doing something about it. This generally takes the from of programmes full of once unimaginable sweets: cheap gym membership, veggie salads in the canteen, stand-up desks and the odd massage. Of course, there’s nothing against lunchtime dentistry or free workout. They do more good than harm. But such welfares alone won’t do much to stop people from presenteeism.The chief reasons why people soldier on have nothing to do with how fit they are. They work for leaner, more stressed companies where dismissals are common. This makes some people worried that they will be targeted in the next round of job cut if they have taken a lot of time off. Others worry about troubling stretched colleagues with more work in their absence. How annoying it is to be faced with cold faces when you return to office after two days’ rest at home!There is not much to be said for “silly things” like ping-pong tables and office bean bags. The key to dealing with presenteeism lies in training managers to be better at spotting swiftly when employees are under too much stress or ill, and dealing with the situation sensibly putting the sick employee to sick leave although he is reluctant. Of course, work has to be done to eliminate employee’s concern about his job prospect thereof.第Ⅱ卷Ⅴ. TranslationDirections: Translate the following sentences into English, using the words given in the brackets72. 暴饮暴食被一些人认为是缓解工作压力的手段。

But we do think that you can live a more powerful life when you devote some of your time and energy to something much larger than yourself. Find an issue you are interested in and learn more.

When the world was still populated by hunter-gatherers, small, tightly knit(联系)groups developed their own patterns of speech independent of each other. Some language experts believe that 10,000 years ago, when the world had just five to ten million people, they spoke perhaps 12,000 languages between them.Soon afterwards, many of those people started settling down to become farmers, and their languages too became more settled and fewer in number. In recent centuries, trade, industrialisation, the development of the nation-state and the spread of universal compulsory education, especially globalisation and better communications in the past few decades, all have caused many languages to disappear, and dominant languages such as English, Spanish and Chinese are increasingly taking over.At present, the world has about 6,800 languages. The distribution of these languages is hugely uneven. The general rule is that mild zones have relatively few languages, often spoken by many people, while hot, wet zones have lots, often spoken by small numbers. Europe has only around 200 languages;the Americas about 1,000;Africa 2,400;and Asia and the Pacific perhaps 3,200, of which Papua New Guinea alone accounts for well over 800. The median number(中位数) of speakers is a mere 6,000, which means that half the world’s languages are spoken by fewer people than that.Already well over 400 of the total of 6,800 languages are close to extinction(消亡), with only a few elderly speakers left. Pick, at random, Busuu in Cameroon(eight remaining speakers), Chiapaneco in Mexico(150), Lipan Apache in the United States(two or three) or Wadjigu in Australia(one, with a question-mark):none of these seems to have much chance of survival.28.What can we infer about languages in hunter-gatherer times?A.They developed very fast.B.They were large in number.C.They had similar patterns.D.They were closely connected.29.Which of the following best explains“dominant”underlined in paragraph 2?plex.B.Advanced.C.Powerful.D.Modern.30.How many languages are spoken by less than 6,000 people at present?A.About 6,800.B.About 3,400.C.About 2,400.D.About 1,200.31.What is the main idea of the text?A.New languages will be created.B.People’s lifestyle s are reflected in languages.C.Human development results in fewer languages.D.Geography determines language evolution.D(2018课标全国Ⅰ,D)We may think we’re a culture that gets rid of our worn technology at the first sight of something shiny and new, but a new study shows that we keep using our old devices(装置) well after they go out of style. That’s bad news for the environment—and our wallets—as these outdated devices consume much more energy than the newer ones that do the same things.To figure out how much power these devices are using, Callie Babbitt and her colleagues at the Rochester Institute of Technology in New York tracked the environmental costs for each product throughout its life—from when its minerals are mined to when we stop using the device. This method provided a readout for how home energy use has evolved since the early 1990s. Devices were grouped by generation. Desktop computers, basic mobile phones, and box-set TVs defined 1992. Digital cameras arrived on the scene in 1997. And MP3 players, smartphones, and LCD TVs entered homes in 2002, before tablets and e-readers showed up in 2007.As we accumulated more devices, however, we didn’t throw out our old ones. “The living-room television is replaced and gets planted in the kids’ room, and s uddenly one day, you have a TV in every room of the house,”said one researcher. The average number of electronic devices rose from four per household in 1992 to 13 in 2007. We’re not just keeping these old devices—we continue to use them. According to the analysis of Babbitt’s team, old desktop monitors and box TVs with cathode ray tubes are the worst devices with their energy consumption and contribution to greenhouse gas emissions(排放) more than doubling during the 1992 to 2007 window.So what’s the soluti on(解决方案)?The team’s data only went up to 2007, but the researchers also explored what would happen if consumers replaced old products with new electronics that serve more than one function, such as a tablet for word processing and TV viewing. They found that more on-demand entertainment viewing on tablets instead of TVs and desktop computers could cut energy consumption by 44%.32.What does the author think of new devices?A.They are environment-friendly.B.They are no better than the old.C.They cost more to use at home.D.They go out of style quickly.33.Why did Babbitt’s team conduct the research?A.To reduce the cost of minerals.B.To test the life cycle of a product.C.To update consumers on new technology.D.To find out electricity consumption of the devices.34.Which of the following uses the least energy?A.The box-set TV.B.The tablet.C.The LCD TV.D.The desktop computer.35.What does the text suggest people do about old electronic devices?A.Stop using them.B.Take them apart.C.Upgrade them.D.Recycle them.第二节(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)(2017课标全国Ⅲ)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。
