From the airport, my friend and I took a taxi to my hotel.

My friend helped me unpack at the hotel and then left me because he had to go back to work. He promised to return the next day.Shortly after my friend had left, I went to a restaurant near the hotel to get something to eat. Because I couldn’t speak a word of English, I couldn’t tell the waiter what I wanted. I was very upset and started to make some gestures, but the waiter didn’t understand me. Finally, I ordered the same thing the man at the next table was eating.

For the blanks with a given word, fill in each blank with the proper form of the given word; for the other blanks, use one word that best fits each blank.China’s Good Samaritan Law went into effect on October 1 to encourage people who are ready to help others. Under the law, people who voluntarily offer emergency assistance to those who are, or who they believe to be, injured, ill or in danger, will not have civil responsibility in the event of harm to the victims.The new law aims to ease the reluctance people feel toward helping strangers for fear of legal consequences if they make mistakes in treatment. It is a response to the phenomenon of people __ (21)__ (hesitate) to help fallen senior citizens due to concern that they might be blackmailed (讹诈) later.There has been no shortage of cases over the past decade __ (22) __ people hesitated to offer assistance to those who are in need. And some good Samaritans have been blackmailed for charitable acts. In 2011, a two-year-old girl known as Xiao Yueyue was run over by two cars, and 18 people passed by__ (23) __ offering emergency help. The girl died after days of medical treatment. In 2014, a man from Guangdong Province aided a senior citizen, but __ (24) __ (accuse) of knocking him down. The man committed suicide when __ (25) __ (face) with demands for a large sum of money.These cases __ (26) __ (arouse) debate about morality and heroism in China in recent years. “If you don’t provide help, you will blame yourself, but if you do help, you are likely __ (27) __ (hurt) by the people you help. It is really a difficult choice,” one netizen said on Sina Weibo.__ (28) __ there had been calls for a national Good Samaritan law, only a few cities pushedahead with such laws before the nationwide law came into effect.However, some experts are concerned __ (29) __ there could be some danger from a nationwide Good Samaritan Law. “Rescuers who know little about first aid could bring serious harm to people in critical conditions,” said Yang Lixin, a professor at the Renmin University of China. He hoped the government __ (30) __ introduce details of the policy soon while encouraging people to voluntarily offer assistance.SectionBDirections:Completethefollowingpassagebyusingthewordsinthebox.Eachwordcanonly beused once.Notethat thereis onewordmorethanyouneed.MinimumwagelawsintheU.S.werefirstintroducedduringthe1930sinresponsetotheGreatDepress ion.Thisperiodwas__11__byfallingoutput,fallingprices,andfallingemployment.TheNationalIndustri alRecoveryAct(NIRA)of1933attemptedtostopthisdownwardtrendbyencouragingthe__12__oftradea ssociationagreementsthatestablishedthelowestpriceandminimumwages.Thiswasthefirsttimethatmin imumwageswereintroducedinmajorindustries.Butin1935,theU.S.SupremeCourtruledthattheNIRAw asunlawful, andtheseinitial minimum wage agreements cameto anend.In 1938, the Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA) established a national minimum wage of $0.25 an hour.

Reading Comprehension (45%)Section 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.When you’re shopping at the grocery store, you probably expect that the olive oil you see came from, well, olives. And that the organic vegetables were never exposed to poisonous chemicals.Increasingly, however, there’s a chance you might be __41__. In recent years, there has been a rise in reports of so-called food fraud, or attempts by various entities — including storage workers, suppliers and distributors — to alter products and mislead customers and food companies alike for __42__gain. Among the more recent examples: “natural” honey containing antibiotics and Italian companies selling “Italian olive oil” from a blend of oils that did not __43__ from Italy.By and large, the fraudsters are trying to make easy money — __44__ for a whole food or pricey ingredient, then cutting it with __45__ stuff secretly. But the health consequences can be__46__.How can this happen? In the U.S., the Pure Food and Drug Act has prevented the “manufacture, sale or transportation of misbranded or poisonous foods” since 1906, and similar laws exist in other countries.But most global food regulators, including the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, aren’t__47__ to enforce them effectively. For the most part, they focus on safety standards —__48__that foods don’t contain bacteria or viruses — and rely on companies to police their own ingredients, lest they face __49__ backlash（强烈抵制）. But now that food manufacturing hasbecome globalized, supply chains are longer, creating more opportunities for bad actors to __50__. Anyone who can __51__ substituting cheap ingredients for more expensive ones is going to try.Governments are starting to fight back. In 2014, the U.K. created a food-crime unit that collects reports of food fraud. But in order to prevent fraud in the first place, the food industry needs to __52__ the safeguarding of its own production network. So the Global Food Safety Initiative (GFSI) —a trade group including officials from more than 300 food manufactures —will this year start __53__ its members’ supply chains, from field to table, to identify vulnerabilities.__54__, dozens of other food-industry experts recently teamed up with academics from Michigan State University to launch the Food Fraud Initiative （FFI）, a group that studies fraudsters — specifically, how they avoid safeguards — and then advises food companies on how to get rid of them. “There are plenty of criminals out there who are going to wake up and perceive some opportunity for fraud,” says John Spink, director of the FFI. “We just need to make ourselves a(n) __55__ target.”41.

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)Sleeper trains occupy a romantic corner of any traveler’s soul. One of HerculePoirot’smost fascinating adventures takes place on the Simplon Orient Express, which used to run from Paris to Istanbul. A famous scene in Alfred Hitchcock’s “North by Northwest” features a night train entering a tunnel. James Bond, meanwhile, detects a spy on a sleeper train after noticing him behave suspiciously in the dining car.In some parts of the world, the nostalgia（怀旧）lives on. The Caledonian Sleeper,complete with smartly dressed waiters, neeps and tatties（白萝卜泥和土豆泥）and a selection of whiskies,is the best way to travel between London and Scotland. Elsewhere, however, sleepers are on their last legs. Flights across Europe have become so cheap that fewer and fewer travelers bother with sleeper trains. Sensing that the end is approaching, Andrew Martin, a British writer, has written a book about the sleeper.“Night Trains” is a brief history of the mode, combined with accounts of journey s Mr. Martin has taken on sleeper routes across Europe. The reader joins him on a train Munich, where he eats a tuna sandwich on board. Travelling from Paris to Venice, he thinks he has been robbed of $105. The service to Nice is cancelled, yet such is his love for sleeping aboard that he spends the night on the train as it sits on the platform.These stories make clear that the golden age of the sleeper train is long past. How different things were in the 19th century, when a passenger on the Orient Express could dine on delicacies and good wines. The only modern-day sleeper train which comes up to the Mr. Martin’s exacting standards is the Nordland, which travels towards northern Norway.Those who have no experience of the sleeper trains often ask sleeper enthusiasts: “Do you sleep?” After a read of Mr. Martin’s book, the answer would seem to be a definite “no”: the noise of the train wakes him up time and again. Still, it is hard not to be won over by his enthusiasm. Catch the sleeper train, before it’s to o late.56. What can we learn from the underlined sentence in paragraph two?A. Sleeper trains are the last means of transportation for travelers.B. Travelers tend to fall asleep toward the end of their trip.C. Travelers are too exhausted to walk any longer.D. Sleeper trains are becoming out of fashion.57. After reading the book Night Trains, readers ________.A. may enjoy the scenery on their journey from London to Scotland.B. can have the opportunity to travel on the best train in Europe.C. may have a basic understanding of the history of sleeper trains.D. cannot find a similar train living up to the standards of Mr. Martin.58. What can be inferred from the last paragraph?A. The noise of the train makes it impossible for travelers to sleep well.B. Readers may be discouraged from riding on sleeper trains.C. The writer of the passages suggests not spending nights aboard.D. For enthusiasts, the love for sleepers outweighs the inconvenience caused.59. The author’s purpose of writing the passag e is to ________.A. introduce readers to a new book about sleeper trainsB. compare the advantages of sleeper trains in different periodsC. inform the readers of the rise and fall of sleeper trainsD. recall readers’ memory of an old-fashioned means of transportation(B)Bringing tech into the bedroom can be more harmful than helpful. Glancing at your phone before hitting the bed may be distracting and, more important, the blue light its screen emits is known to make falling asleep more difficult. But tha t’s not true for all gadgets. These smart-home devices want to invade your bedroom with the aim of improving your sleep.60. All the following gadgets help you with sleep with body contact EXCEPT ________.A.Muse HeadbandB.Here One Smart EarbudsC.Apple I-phoneD. D. S+sleep Monitor61. What is NOT true about blue light?A. Frequent use of cell phones leads to much emission of blue light.B. It makes it harder for your body to produce an essential chemical.C. The Night Shift feature can probably reduce the emission of blue light.D. Blue light reminds you to get to bed and regulates your sleep.62. What’s the b est title for the passage?A. Sleep, something well deservedB. Sleep, thy（你的）name is gadgetC. Sleep, a mission made impossibleD. Sleep, highly dependent on tech(C)Earlier this year a series of papers in The Lancet reported that 85 percent of the $265 billion spent each year on medical research is wasted because too often absolutely nothing happens after initial results of a study are published. No follow-up investigations to replicate(复制) or expand on a discovery. No one uses the findings to build new technologies.The problem is not just what happens after publication —scientists often have trouble choosing the right questions and properly designing studies to answer them. Too many studies test too few subjects to arrive at firm conclusions. Researchers publish reports on hundreds of treatments for diseases that work in animal models but not in humans. Drug companies find themselves unable to reproduce promising drug targets published by the best academic institutions. The growing recognition that something has gone wrong in the laboratory has led to calls for, as one might guess, more research on research — attempts to find rules to ensure that peer-reviewed studies are, in fact, valid.It will take a concerted effort by scientists and other stakeholders to fix this problem. We can do so by exploring ways to make scientific investigation more reliable and efficient. These may include collaborative team science, study registration, stronger study designs and statistical tools, and better peer review, along with making scientific data widely available so that others can replicate experiments, therefore building trust in the conclusions of those studies.Reproducing other scientists’ analyses or replicating their results has too often in the past been look ed down on with a kind of “me-too” derision(嘲笑) that would waste resources — but often they may help avoid false leads that would have been even more wasteful. Perhaps the biggest obstacle to replication is the inaccessibility of data and results necessary to rerun theanalyses that went into the original experiments. Searching for such information can be extremely difficult. Investigators die, move and change jobs; computers crash; online links malfunction. Data are sometimes lost — even, as one researcher claimed when confronted about spurious(伪造的) results, eaten by termites(白蚁).There has definitely been some recent progress. An increasing number of journals, including Nature and Science, have adopted measures such as checklists for study design and reporting while improving statistical review and encouraging access to data. Several funding agencies, meanwhile, have asked that researchers outline their plans for sharing data before they can receive a government grant.But it will take much more to achieve a lasting culture change. Investigators should be rewarded for performing good science rather than just getting statistically significant (“positive”) but nonreplicable results. Revising the present incentive(激励) structure may require changes on the part of journals, funders, universities and other research institutions.63. What is the problem reported in those papers in The Lancet?A. Great achievements in medical research failed to get published.B. Money was wasted on follow-up investigations in medical research.C. Too many new research findings are not put into use after publication.D. Few scientists are devoted to building new technologies for mankind.64. Which of the following situation is most similar to the problem described in paragraph 2?A. A high school decides to cut its art programs due to the lack of fund.B. A patient gets sicker because he does not follow the doctor’s advice.C. A marketing firm tests a website with participants that are not target population.D. A drug company fails to produce the new drug due to no access to the latest data.65. Which of the following can be inferred from the passage?A. Measures are taken to ensure publication of tested results only.B. Scientific experiments must be replicable to be considered valid.C. Experiment replication is unoriginal and not worthwhile.D. Rewards should be given only to those nonreplicable findings.66.The purpose of this article is to ___________.A. argue that scientific research lacks efficiencyB. explain the result of a recent scientific studyC. introduce some recent progress in medical researchD. highlight the possible problems of research studiesSection CDirections:Complete the following passage by using the sentences given below.

They include theoretical concepts, the study of historical sources, oral histories, case studies, interviews, and survey. For example, one group of research carried out several interviews to investigate younger and older American adults for three wars, namely, the Civil War, World War II, and the Iraq War. Although Americans of different ages recalled similar events, the interpretation of some events changed over the generations: both younger and older adults recalled the bombings of Hiroshina and Nigasak; however, they differed in how they rated the bombings.More recently, memory study scholars tend to stress the significance of the media in shaping collective memories: “ Culture an individuals memory are constantly produced through the technology of memory.” Under this perspective, research often involves content analysis of newsand the use of surveys or interviews for analyzing the public memory. Alternatively, scholars have studied the role of journalists as collective memory agents by manually analyzing the stories journalists tell as professionals and the stories they tell about their profession. 49.However, developments in digital technologies in recent years have significantly influenced how we track of events both as individuals and as a collective,” The Internet doesn’t forget. “The Internet has had strong impacts on memory and the processes of remembering and forgetting 50.. Analyzing different Web documents, researchers have shown that more recent past events are remembered more vividly in the present.IV. Summary Writing (10%)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.An Extension of the Human BrainOther people can help us compensate for our mental and emotional deficiencies (欠缺)，much as a wooden leg can compensate for a physical deficiency . To be exact, other people can extend our intelligence and help us understand and adjust our emotions. When another person helps us in such ways , he or she is participating in what I’ve called a “ social prosthetic (义肢的) system.” Such systems do not need to operate face-to face, and it’s clear to me that the Internet is expanding the range of my own social prosthetic system. It’s already a big bank of many minds. Even in its current state, the Internet has extended my memory and judgment.Regar ding memory: Once I look up something on the Internet, I don’t need to keep all the details for future use ------I know where to find that information again and can quickly and easily do particularly striking when I’m writing; I ‘m no longer comfortable writing if I ’m not connected to the Internet. It’s become natural to check facts as I write, taking a minute or two to dip into PubMed, Wikipedia, or other websites.Regarding judgment: The Internet has made me smarter in matters small and large. For exampl e, when I ‘m writing a textbook, it has become second nature to check a dozen definitions of a key term, which helps me dig into the core and understand its meaning. But more than that, I now regularly compare my views with those of many others. If I have a “new idea”, I now quicklylook to see whether somebody else has already thought of it, or something similar-and I then compare what I think with what others have thought. This certainly makes my own views clearer. Moreover, I can find out whether my reactions to an event are reasonable enough by reading about those of others on the Internet.________ ________ ________ ________ ________ ________ ________ ________ ________ ________ ________ ________ ________ ________ ________ ________ ________ ________ ________ ________ ________ ________ ________ ________ ________ ________ ________ ________ ________ ________ ________ ________ ________ ________ ________ ________ ________ ________ ________ ________ ________ ________ ________ ________ ________ ________ ________ ________ ________ ________ ________ ________ ________ ________ ________ ________ ________ ________ ________ ________ 60V.

After climbing up a hill for a panoramic(全景的) view of the blue sea, white buildings and green olive trees, I paused to catch my breath and then positioned myself to take the best photo of this panorama.Unfortunately, just as I took out my camera, a woman approached from behind, and planted herself right in front of my view. Like me, this woman was here to stop, sigh and appreciate the view.Patient as I was, after about 15 minutes, my camera scanning the sun and reviewing the shot I would eventually take, I grew frustrated. Was it too much to ask her to move so I could take just one picture of the landscape? Sure, I could have asked her, but something prevented me from doing so. She seemed so content in her observation. I didn’t want to mess with that.Another 15 minutes passed and I grew bored. The woman was still there. I decided to take the photo anyway. And now when I look at it, I think her presence in the photo is what makes the image interesting. The landscape, beautiful on its own, somehow comes to life and breathes because this woman is engaging with it.This photo, with the unique beauty that unfolded before me and that woman who “ruined” it, now hangs on a wall in my bedroom. What would she think if she knew that her figure is captured and frozen on some stranger’s bedroom wall? A bedroom, after all, is a very private space, in which some woman I don’t even know has been immortalized(使……永存). In some ways, she lives in my house.Perhaps we all live in each other’s spaces. Perhaps this is what photos are for: to remind us that we all appreciate beauty, that we all share a common desire for pleasure, for connection, for something that is greater than us.That photo is a reminder, a captured moment, an unspoken conversation between two women, separated only by a thin square of glass.51.What happened when the author was about to take a photo?A. Her camera stopped working.B. A woman blocked her view.C. Someone asked her to leave.D. A friend approached from behind.52.According to the author, the woman was probably ________.A. enjoying herselfB. losing her patienceC. waiting for the sunsetD. thinking about her past53.In the author’s opinion, what makes the photo so alive?A. The rich color of the landscape.B. The perfect positioning of the camera.C. The woman’s existence in the photoD. The soft sunlight that summer day.(B)Space exploration has always been the province of dreamers: The human imagination readily soars where human ingenuity (创造力) struggles to follow. A Voyage to the Moon, often cited as the first science fiction story, was written by Cyrano de Bergerac in 1649. Cyrano was dead and buried for a good three centuries before the first manned rockets started to fly.In 1961, when President Kennedy declared that America would send a man to the moon by the decade’s end, those words, too, had a dreamlike quality. They resonated with optimism and ambition in much the same way as the most famous dream speech of all, delivered by Martin Luther King Jr. two years later. By the end of the decade, both visions had yielded concrete results and transformed American society. And yet in many ways the two dreams ended up at odds with each other. The fight for racial and economic equality is intensely pragmatic (讲求实用的) and immediate in its impact. The urge to explore space is just the opposite. It is figuratively and literally otherworldly in its aims.When the dust settled, the space dreamers lost out. There was no grand follow-up to the Apollo missions. The technologically compromised space shuttle program has just come to an end, with no successor. The perpetual argument is that funds are tight, that we have more pressing problems here on Earth. Amid the current concerns about the federal deficit, reaching toward the stars seems a dispensable luxury—as if saving one-thousandth of a single year’s budget would solve our problems.But human ingenuity struggles on. NASA is developing a series of robotic probes that will get the most bang from a buck. They will serve as modem Magellans, mapping out the solar system for whatever explorers follow, whether man or machine. On the flip side, companies like Virgin Galactic are plotting a bottom-up assault on the space dream by making it a reality to the public. Private spaceflight could lie within reach of rich civilians in a few years. Another decade or two and it could go mainstream.The space dreamers end up benefiting all of us—not just because of the way they expand human knowledge, or because of the spin-off technologies they produce, but because the two types of dreams feed off each other. Both Martin Luther King and John Kennedy appealed to the idea that humans can transcendwhat were once considered inherent limitations. Today we face seeming challenges in energy, the environment, health care. Tomorrow we will transcend these as well, and the dreamers will deserve a lot of the credit. The more evidence we collect that our species is capable of greatness, the more we will actually achieve it.54.The author mentions Cyrano de Bergerac in order to show that ________.A. imagination is the mother of inventionB. ingenuity is essential for science fiction writersC. it takes patience for humans to realize their dreamsD. dreamers have always been interested in science fiction55.How did the general public view Kennedy’s space exploration plan?A. It symbolized the American dream.B. It was as urgent as racial equality.C. It sounded very much like a dream.D. It made an ancient dream come true.56.What does the author say about America’s aim to explore space?A. It may not bring about immediate economic gains.B. It cannot be realized without technological innovation.C. It will not help the realization of racial and economic equality.D. It cannot be achieved without a good knowledge of the other worlds.57.Which of the following is the closest to the underlined phrase “feed off” in the last paragraph?A. supportB. contradictC. weakenD. substitute for58.What is the author’s attitude toward space programs?A. Critical.B. Reserved.C. Unbiased.D. Supportive.III. Translation59.我们小区里的新公园逐渐成形了。

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.15AA is for always getting to work on time.B is for being extremely busy.C is for the conscientious (勤勤恳恳的) way you do your job.You may be all these things at the office, and more. But when it comes to getting ahead, experts say, the ABCs of business should include a P, for politics, as in office politics.Dale Carnegie suggested as much more than 50 years ago: Hard work alone doesn’t ensure career advancement. You have to be able to se ll yourself and your ideas, both publicly and behind the scenes. Yet, despite the obvious rewards of engaging in office politics—a better job, a raise, praise—many people are still unable—or unwilling—to “play the game.”“People assume that office politics involves some manipulative (工于心计的) behavior,” says Deborah Comer, an assistant professor of management at Hofstra University. “But politics derives from the word ‘polite’. It can mean lobbying and forming associations. It can mean being kind and helpful, or even trying to please your superior, and then expecting something in return.”16In fact, today, experts define office politics as proper behavior used to pursue one’s own self-interest in the workplace. In many cases, this involves some form Of Socializing within the office environment—not just in large companies, but in small workplaces as well.“The first thing people are usually judged on is their ability to perform well on a consistent basis,’” says Neil P Lewis, a management psychologist. “But if two or three candidates are up for a promotion, each of whom has reasonably similar ability, a manager is going to promote the person he or she likes best. It’s simple human nature.”Yet, psychologists say, many employees and employers have trouble with the concept of politics in the office. Some people, they say, have an idealistic vision of work and what it takes to succeed. Still others associate politics with flattery (奉承), fearful that, if they speak up for themselves, they may appear to be flattering their boss for favors.Experts suggest altering this negative picture by recognizing the need for some self-promotion.81. “Office politics” (Line 2, Para. 4) is used in the passage to refer to ________.A) the code of behavior for company staff17B) the political views and beliefs of office workersC) the interpersonal relationships within a companyD) the various qualities required for a successful career82. T o get promoted, one must not only be competent but ________.A) give his boss a good impression B) honest and loyal to his companyC) get along well with his colleagues D) avoid being too outstanding83. Why are many people unwilling to “play the game” (Line 4, Para. 5)?A) They believe that doing so is impractical.B) They feel that such behavior is unprincipled.C) They are not good at manipulating colleagues.D) They think the effort will get them nowhere.84. The author considers office politics to be ________.A) unwelcome at the workplace18B) bad for interpersonal relationshipsC) indispensable to the development of company cultureD) an important factor for personal advancement85. It is the author’s view that _______.A) speaking up for oneself is part of human natureB) self-promotion does not necessarily mean flatteryC) hard work contributes very l ittle to one’s promotionD) many employees fail to recognize the need of flattery( B )As Artificial Intelligence(AI) becomes increasingly sophisticated, there are growing concerns that robots could become a threat. This danger can be avoided, according to computer science professor Stuart Russell, if we figure out how to turn human values into a programmable code.Russell argues that as robots take on more complicated tasks, it’s necessary to translate our morals into AI language.19For example, if a robot does chores around the house, you wouldn’t want it to put the pet cat in the oven to make dinner for the hungry children. “You would want that robot preloaded with a good set of values,” said Russell.Some robots are already programmed with basic human values. For example, mobile robots have been programmed to keep a comfortable distance from humans. Obviously there are cultural differences, but if you were talking to another person and they came up close in your personal space, you wouldn’t think that’s th e kind of thing a properly brought-up person would do.It will be possible to create more sophisticated moral machines, if only we can find a way to set out human values as clear rules.Robots could also learn values from drawing patterns from large sets of data on human behavior. They are dangerous only if programmers are careless.The biggest concern with robots going against human values is that human beings fail to so sufficient testing and they’ve produced a system that will break some kind of taboo（禁忌）.One simple check would be to program a robot to check the correct course of action with a human when presented with an unusual situation.If the robot is unsure whether an animal is suitable for the microwave, it has20the opportunity to stop, send out beeps, and ask for directions from a human. If we humans aren’t quite sure about a decision, we go and ask somebody else.The most difficult step in programming values will be deciding exactly what we believe in moral, and how to create a set of ethical rules. But if we come up with an answer, robots could be good for humanity.86. What does the author say about the threat of robots?A)It may constitute a challenge to computer progranmers.B)It accompanies all machinery involving high technology.C)It can be avoided if human values are translated into their language.D)It has become an inevitable peril as technology gets more sophisticated.87. What would we think of a person who invades our personal space according to the author?A)They are aggressive.B)They are outgoing.C)They are ignorant.21D)They are ill-bred.88. How do robots learn human values?A)By interacting with humans in everyday life situations.B)By following the daily routines of civilized human beings.C)By picking up patterns from massive data on human behavior.D)By imitating the behavior of property brought-up human beings.89. What will a well-programmed robot do when facing an unusual situation?A)keep a distance from possible dangers.B)Stop to seek advice from a human being.C)Trigger its built-in alarm system at once.D)Do sufficient testing before taking action.90. What is most difficult to do when we turn human values into a programmable code?A)Determine what is moral and ethical.22B)Design some large-scale experiments.C)Set rules for man-machine interaction.D)Develop a more sophisticated program.上海交通大学附属中学2019届高一分班考（英语）（答案）II．Grammar and Vocabulary1—10 BDCBA BBCAD11—20 CBAAB BDACC21—30 BADDA CBBCD31—40 AAACB ABCBC41—50 DABBC CDCDC51—55 BDABCII. 56—6523ABC BD D AD BC C E A AB BIII 66--80CDBAB ADABC DADACIV. 每题两分81—85 CABDB86—90 CDCBA24。

Reading Comprehension（54/100）Section A（30/100）You are watching a film in which two men are having a fight. They hit one another hard. ___26___ they only fight with their fists. But soon they begin hitting one another over the heads with chairs. And so it goes ___27___ until one of the men crashes ___28___ a window and falls thirty feet to the ground below. He is dead! ___29___ he isn’t really dead. With___30___ luck he isn’t even hurt. Why? Because the men who fall out of high windows or jump from fast moving trains, who crash cars of even ___31___ fire, are professionals. They do this for a living. These men are called stuntmen. That is to say, they ___32___ tricks. There are two ___33___ to their work. They actually do most of the things you see on the screen. For example, they fall from a high building. However, they do not fall on to hard ground but on to ___34___ cardboard boxes covered with a mattress. Again, when they hit one another with chairs, the chairs are made of soft wood and when they break windows, the glass is made of sugar! But although their work depend on trick of this sort, it also requires a high ___35___ of skill and training. Often a stuntman’s success depends on careful ___36___. For example, when he is “___37___ up” in a battle scene, he has to jump out of the way of the explosion just at the right moment.Naturally stuntmen are well paid for their work, but they lead dangerous lives. They often get seriously injured, andsometimes killed. A Norwegian stuntman, ___38___, skied over the ___39___ of a cliff a thousand feet high. His parachute failed to open, and he was killed.

A. look on as B. show off C. dress up D. turn downSection B(24/100)（A）Have you ever had the experience of talking to someone and you think they are lying? Well, you are not alone. We’ve all had that feeling. But did you know that there are several things you can look for to see if you are being lied to?Sometimes you can tell if a person is lying by observing what they do with their body. When people are lying they tend not to move their arms, hands or legs very far from their body. They don’t want to take up very much space because they don’t want to be noticed. Sometimes a person who is lying will not look you in the eyes. Other times people who lie try to look at you in a strong way because they want to convince you they are telling the trugh. Liars also use deflection. For example, if you ask a liar the question“Did you steal Fatima’s bag?”they may answer with something like“Fatima is my friend. Why would I do that?”In this situation the person is telling the truth, but they are also not answering the question. They are trying to deflect your attention. Liars may also give too many details. They may try to over-explain things. They do this because they want to convince you of what they are saying.Often when a person is lying, they do not want to continue talking about their lie. If you think someone is lying, quickly change the subject. If the person is lying, they will spear more comfortable because they are not talking about their lie any longer. A little later, change the subject back to what you were talking about before. If the person seems uncomfortable again, they may be lying.It’s very hard for a liar to avoid filling silence created by you. He or she wants you to believe the lies being woven; silence gives no feedback on whether or not you’ve bought the story. If you’re a good listener, you’ll already be avoiding interruptions, which in itself is a great technique to let the story unfold.Just because a person is showing these behaviors, it does not mean they are lying. They might be shy or nervous. But, if you think someone is lying, you might want to use some of these techniques. Hopefully, you won’t need to very often.41. According to the passage, a person could be lying he or she _____.B. appears to be shy or nervousC. changes the subject of the conversationD. speaks very fast and vaguely42. Which of the following can be learned from the passage?A. Liars always try to avoid direct eye contact when they tell lies.B. We can make people lie by changing the subject in a conversation.C. Liars are often expansive in hand and arm movements while talking.D. We make liars uncomfortable by giving no feedback in a conversation.43. The passage mainly talks about ____.A. who deceives usB. why people tell liesC. how to detect liesD. what to do with liars（B）A person , like a commodity, needs packaging. But going too far is absolutely undesirable. A little exaggeration, however, does no harm when it shows the person’s unique qualities to their advantages. To show personal attractiveness in a casual and natural way, it is important for one to have a clear knowledge of oneself. A skilled packager knows how to add art to nature without any signs of embellishment, so that the person so packaged is not a commodity but a human being, lively and lovely.A young person, especially a female, shining with beauty and full of life, has all the favor granted by God. Any attempt to make up would be self-defeating. Youth, however, comes and goes in a flash. Packaging for the middle-aged is primarily to hide the marks made by years. If you still enjoy life enough to keep self-confidence and work at pioneering work, you are unique in your natural qualities, and your attractiveness and grace will remain. Elderly people are beautiful if their river of life has been, through plains, mountains and jungles, running its course as it should. You have really lived your life, which now arrives at a self - satisfied stage of quietness and calmness with no interest in fame or wealth. There is no need to make use of hair dyeing. The snowcapped mountain itself is itself a beautiful scene of fairyland. Let your looks change from young to old in step with the natural ageing process so as to keep in harmony with nature, for harmony itself is beauty, while the other way round will only end in unpleasantness.To be in the company of the elderly is like reading a thick book of (better quality) edition, which attracts one so much that one is unwilling to part with it.As long as one finds where one stands, one knows how to package oneself, just as a commodity sets up its brand by the right packaging.44. It can be concluded from the passage that ____.A. people should be packaged at all agesB. people should be packaged in a special wayC. elderly people also care about packagingD. proper packaging makes people attractive45. According to the author, if you want to keep in harmony with nature, you should ____.A. dye your hairB. wear makeup at a young ageC. follow the aging processD. give up fame and wealth46. The underlined part refers to the way of ____.A. dyeing one’s black hair whiteB. keeping in harmony with natureC. packaging oneself skillfullyD. packaging oneself to hide the traces of aging47. The passage implies that elderly people are attractive because ____.A. they are usually packaged like a finely-made bookB. they experience a lot and have rich knowledge of lifeC. they are unique in natural qualitiesD. they enjoy reading thick books of beautiful nature and fairylandSection CRead an except from the novel The Boy in the Striped Pyjamas and put the description of body language intheir places standing side by side by the staircase and Mother waited beside them, ___48___. Father gave them all a quick glance and nodded, looking pleased by what he saw, and then opened the door.Two people stood outside: a rather small man and a taller woman.Father saluted them and ushered them inside, where Maria, ___49___, took their coats and the introductions were made. They spoke to Mother first, which gave Bruno an opportunity to stare at their guests and decide for himself whether they deserved all the hiss being made of them.The Fury was far shorter than Father and not, Bruno supposed, quite as strong. He had dark hair, which was cut quite short, and a tiny moustache—so tiny in fact that Bruno wondered why he bothered with it at all or whether he had simply forgotten a piece when he was shaving. The woman standing beside him, however, was quite the most beautiful woman he had ever seen in his life. She had blonde hair and very red lips, and while the Fury spoke to Mother she ___50___, making him go red with embarrassment.“And these are my children, Fury,”said Father as Gretel and Bruno stepped forward.“Gretel and Bruno.”“And which is which?”the Fury said, which made everyone laugh except for Bruno, who thought it was perfectly obvious which was which and hardly cause for joke. The Fury stretched out his hand and shook their and Gretel ___51___. Bruno was delighted when it went wrong and she almost fell over.“When charming children,”said the beautiful blonde woman.“And how old are they, might I ask?”“I’m twelve but he’s only nine,”said Gretel, looking at her brother with disdain.“And I can speak French too,”she added, which was not strictly speaking true, although she had learned a few phrases in school.“Yes, but why would you want to?”asked the Fury, and this time no one laughed; instead they ___52___ and Gretel stared at him, unsure whether he wanted an answer or not.Ⅰ. Recitation（5/100）Complete the two paragraphs taken from Eye Contact in the More Reading section of Unit one.In many Asian cultures, ___53___ shows respect. It is done when talking with anyone ___54___ or with anyone older. Habits like this can ___55___ when people do not understand them. ___56___. an Asian might close his eyes ___57___ or look down while listening to a speaker. A Western speaker might think the man is not interested.Ⅰ. Translation（16/100）58. 缩⼩代沟的最佳⽅法便是提升你的沟通技能。

It aims to help with _____41_______ a greater understanding of the behavior of children through an understanding of their minds. It deals with children who range from the prenatal (出生前的) stage right up to the stage of _______42_______.The psychologist Jean Piaget (1896-1980) has been _____43________ with making a major breakthrough in this area when he put forward his idea that children were not actually less intelligent than adults, rather they just thought in a different way. Preciously the development of children right from birth through to adulthood was an area that was almost completely ____44________. In fact very little work was done in this area. However, interest in this field has now developed to the point of being one of the most ___45_______of all the areas of psychology.Despite popular belief that factors such as ______46_____ or personal characteristics are the only determining factors that influence a youth's behavior, this is not in fact the case.

However, there are debates on many different points in this field and many viewpoints exist.II.

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.Are we getting more stupid? According to Gerald Crabtree, a scientist at Stanford University in the US, we areYou may not want to hear this, but Crabtree believes that human intelligence reached its peak more than 2,000 years ago and ever since then has been going downhill. "If an average Greek from 1,000 BC were transported to modern times, he or she would be one of the brightest among us,” Crabtree told The GuardianAt the heart of Crabtree's thinking is a simple idea. In the past, intelligence was critical for survival when our ancestors had to avoid dangerous animals and hunt for food. The difference of being smart or stupid is often life or death. However, after the spread of agriculture, when our ancestors began to live in dense farming communities, the need to keep their intelligence in peak condition gradually reducedThis is not hard to understand. Most of the time, pressure is what keeps us going -you need the pressure from your teachers to finish your homework; the pressure of looking pretty prompt you to lose weight when summer comes. And the same is also true of our intelligence -if we thinkless. we become less smart.These mutations(变异) are harmful to our intelligence and they were all developed in the past 3,000 years. The other evidence that Crabtree holds is in our genes. He found that among the 2,000 to 5,000 genes that we have that determine human intelligence, there are two or more mutations in each of us.However, Crabtree's theory has been criticized by some who say that early humans may have better hunting and surviving abilities, but people today have developed a more diverse intelligence. For example, spearing a tiger doesn't necessarily require more brainpower than playing chess or writing a poem. Moreover, the power of modern education means a lot more people have the opportunity to learn nowadays.“You wouldn't get Stephen Hawking 2, 000 years ago. He just wouldn’t exist,” Thomas Hills of the University of Warwick, UK, told Live Science. “But now we have people of his intellectual capacity doing things and making insights that we would never have achieved in our environment of evolutionary adaptation. ”66. What is Crabtree’s recent finding according to the article?A. The Greeks from 1,000 BC could have been the smartest in human history.B. Our ancient ancestors had no better surviving abilities than we do nowadays.C. Mutations in genes that decide human intelligence have affected the development ofintelligenceD. Humans have been getting steadily more intelligent since the invention of farming.67. According to Crabtree, ancient humans _______.A had much more genes that determine human intelligenceB. were forced to be smart due to natural selection pressuresC. relied more on group intelligence than individual intelligenceD. developed a diverse intelligence to adapt to the harsh realities68. Some argue that Crabtree’s theory is false because they think_______.A. people today are under much more pressure than early humansB. it's ridiculous to compare a hunter’s and a poet’s intelligenceC. modern education is far more advanced than ancient educationD. human intelligence nowadays is different from that of the distant past69. What is Thomas Hills' attitude toward Crabtree’s theory?A. SupportiveB. UnfavorableC. WorriedD. Confused III．Productive Grammar(10%)1.

They are wrong. Everyone has imagination, but most of us, once we become adults, forget how to 47 it. Creativity isn’t always connected with great works of art or ideas. People at work and in their free time 48 think of creative ways to solve problems. Maybe you have a goal to achieve, a tricky question to answer or you just want to expand your mind! Here are three techniques to help you.Making connections. This technique involves taking 49 ideas and trying to find links between them. First, think about the problem you have to solve or the job you need to do. Then find an image, word, idea or object, for example, a candle. Write down all the ideas/words6with candles: light, fire, matches, wax, night, silence, etc. Think of as many as you can. The next stage is to relate the 51 to the job you have to do. So imagine you want to buy a friend an original 8 ; you could buy him tickets to match or take him out for the night.NO limits! Imagine that normal lim itations don’t exist. You have as much time /space78 / money, etc. as you want. Think about your goal and the new 52 . If your goal is to learn to ski, 53 , you can now practice skiing every day of your life (because you have the time and the money). Now 54 this to reality. Maybe you can practice skiing every day in December, or every Monday in January.Be someone else! Look at the situation from a 55 point of view. Good businessmen use this technique in trade, and so do writers. Fiction writers often imagine they are the characters in their books. They ask questions: What does this character want ？ Why can’t she get it？ What changes must she make to get what she wants ？ If your goal involves other people, put yourself in their 56 .

People, both in Japan and in America, dream of seeing this beautiful island in the middle of the Pacific Ocean. Their dreams always include the sunset over the ocean. The sun drops like a ball of golden fire into the sea, and it drops .so quickly that you can almost see it move. The sun leaves behind a glow(霞光) that lights the skies and shines in the quiet water.People often have a quiet, peaceful time while walking along the beach. The first strangers to these islands centuries ago were who came from Tahiti in canoes(独木舟) .Now no matter where the people come from, they really want to see the original(原始的) beauty of Hawaii. They want to see the lovely beaches and the mountain called Diamond Head which is almost hidden by the tall hotels.57. The most magic thing on the beautiful islands is ______ .A. the tropical plantsB. a leisurely walk along the beachC. the sunset9D. the quiet water58.______ doesn’t belong to “the original beauty of Hawaii.A.White sand beaches .B.

The Diamond Head Mountain.59.The last paragraph suggests _____.A. the scenery nowadays is totally different from the original beauty.B. it is not quite easy to see the original beauty, because some of the scenery is almost hidden by tall hotels.C. it is easy to see the original beauty ,but only by taking jet planes.D. it is difficult to see the original beauty ,for things have completely changed in the last 25 years.60.The best topic of the passage is _____.A. Islands.B. A Magic Name.C. Travelling in Hawaii.D. Hawaii, the Dramatic Beauty.(B)Trees should only be pruned (修剪) when there is a good and clear reason for doing so and , the number of such reasons is small. Pruning involves the cutting away of overgrown and unwanted branches, and the inexperienced gardener can be encouraged by the thought that more damage results from doing it unnecessarily10than from leaving the tree to grow in its own way.First, pruning may be done to make sure that trees have desired shape or size. The object may be to get a tree of the right height, and at the same time to help the growth of small side branches, which will thicken its appearance or give it a special shape. Secondly, pruning may be done to make the tree healthier. You may cut out diseased or dead wood, or branches that are rubbing against each other and thus cause wounds. The health of a tree may be encouraged by removing branches that are blocking up the center and so preventing the free movement of air.One result of pruning is that an open wound is left on the tree and this provides an easy entry for disease , but it is a wound that will heal (愈合). Often there is a race between the healing and the disease as to whether the tree will live or die, so that there is a period when the tree is at risk. It should be the aim of every gardener to reduce that risk of death as far as possible. It is important to make the area, which has been pruned, smooth and clean, for healing will be slowed down by roughness. You should allow the cut surface to dry for a few hours and then paint it with one of the materials available from garden shops produced especially for this purpose. Pruning is usually done in winter , for then you can see the shape of the tree clearly without interference (妨碍) from the leaves and also it is very unlikely that the cuts you make will bleed. If this does happen, it is, of course, impossible to paint them properly .61.Pruning should be done to _____.A．make the tree grow taller.11B．improve the shape of the tree.C．get rid of the small branches .D．make the small branches thicker.62．Trees become unhealthy if the gardener__________.A．allows too many branches to grow in the middleB. does not protect them from the windC. forces them to grow too quickly.D．damages some of the small side branches63.Why is a special material painted on the tree?A．To make a wound smooth.B．To prevent disease entering a wound.C．to cover a rough surface.D．To help a wound to dry.64．What was the author’s purpose when writing this passage?A．To give practical instruction for pruning a tree.B．To give a general description of pruning.12C．To explain how trees develop disease.D．To discuss different methods of pruning.(C)Examinations have a longer history in China than in any other country, yet it is today an issue around in which controversy flourishes. At each stage of their school lives children are faced with exams: exams to enter junior middle school, senior middle school, vocational school, colleges and universities. As a result of having constantly to think of these hurdles facing them children find themselves under constant pressure, unable to take time off from studying exam-oriented subjects to relax with friends or to develop other interests. Within school the concentration on exam success leads to the neglect of courses which are not central to the examinations and a method of teaching and learning which emphasizes training the ability to do well in tests but neglects developing the ability to think creatively.Despite such criticisms the examination system still has its defenders. Without it, they argue, how can we test students’ abilities and evaluate the effectiveness of teachers and schools They believe that they provide the only objective way of selecting students and reduce the exercise of unfair back-door practices to gain advantage for children on the basis of influence or corruption. Examinations are also felt to offer the impetus to students to master their subject in a way in which they otherwise might not. "While too much anxiety can be a bad thing, a little anxiety can stimulate students to learn better than if left without any test to pass," says Li Jie, a leading advocate of the value of testing. "I can remember things now which give me great pleasure which I doubt I would have learned at the time if I had not13had to do so for the examinations.\65.Which of the following statements about emminations in China is correct?A.People can make money out of examination.B.Only students of today have to take examination.C.Students have to learn more about history than about any other subjects.D.People have different opinions concerning the value of examinations.66. What is a possible result if students pay too much attention to examinations？[A] Students neglect those exam-oriented subjects.[B] Students are unable to relax with friends or to develop other interests.[C] Teachers neglect the training of the students' ability to do well in tests.[D] Students only pay attention to the development of their ability to think creatively.67. Which of the following has NOT been mentioned as the advantage of examinations？[A] Examinations are the only objective way of selecting students.[B] Examinations are the only objective way to eliminate the problem of corruption.[C] Examinations can tell us that too much anxiety can be a bad thing.14[D] Examinations can better stimulate students to study.68 Which of the following is an acceptable summary of the organization of this passage？[A] Discussing a problem in education. [B] Refuting (反驳)a long held opinion.[C] Persuading people to believe an idea. [D] Presenting a controversial issue and arguments from both sides.(D)The next time you try for a high-ranking post, you could let your possible boss listen to a recommending phone call“made”by US President George W．Bush or British Prime Minister Tony Blair.Of course, neither of them could really do that for you－you would just ”borrow” their voices. AT&T labs will start selling speech software that, it says, is so good at reproducing the sounds of a human voice that it can recreate voices of long-dead famous people back to life.The software, which turns printed text into speech, makes it possible for a company to use recordings of a person's voice to say things that the person never actually said.Possible customers for the software, which is priced at the thousands of dollars, include telephone call centers, companies that make software that reads digital files aloud, makers of automated voices devices．The advances raise several15problems．Who, for example owns the rights to a famous person's voice? (Some experts even believe that new contracts will be drawn that include voice-licensing clauses.)And although scientists say the technology is not yet good enough to commit fraud(假冒), would the synthesized(合成的)voices at last be able to trick people into thinking that they were getting phone calls or digital audio recordings from people they knew?Even Mr. Fruchterman, one of AT&T lab's possible first customers, said he wondered what the new technology right bring. “Just like you can't trust a photograph any more,” he said, “You won't be able to trust a voice either.”69. With the help of the speech software, it is most possible ________.A. to improve a famous person's speechB. to say what you want in another's voiceC. to make a speech much more easilyD. to help you to find a better job70. If the speech software is widely used, ________.A. people would no longer believe each otherB. it would not be necessary to go for a speech by a famous person16C. no radio or TV broadcasters would be neededD. recording a voice alone would not be taken as a proof in the court71. According to the passage, you can infer that ________.A. the software will turn out to be an immediate success in the marketB. the government will forbid the sale of the software in the marketC. it's hard to decide whether software will enjoy popularityD. the software will soon prove to be nothing but rubbish(4) The passage mainly wants to ________.A. introduce a new softwareB. explain the advantage of a new inventionC. advertise a new kind of productD. describe the future market of a new productKEYS:17-21 BBDCB 22-26 CBCAC 27-31 DCCAC 32-36 ACBCA 37-41 DCCCB 42-46 DDBACKeys:1747-51 CBBAA 52-56 ADDCDKEYS:57-60 CCBDB 61-64 BBAC 65-68 DBCA 69-72 BCAB18。

Reading ComprehensionSection A 15%Directions: 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.If you studied pictures that ancient people left on rock walls and you tried to determine their meaning, you would not detect a deep interest in romance among the artists. 51 , you would see plenty of animals with people running after them. Life for ancient people seemed to center on hunting and gathering wild foods for meals.In modern times, when food is available in grocery stores, finding love is more 52 to people’s lives. The 53 is all around us. It is easy to prepare a list of modern stories having to do with love. An endless number of books and movies qualify as love stories in popular culture.Researchers are studying whether love, a highly valued emotional state, can be 54 . They ask, what is love? Toothpaste companies want us to think attraction is all about clean teeth, but clean teeth go only so far. Scientists wonder how much the brain gets involved. You have probably heard that opposites attract but that 55 attract, too. One thing is certain: The truth about love is not yet set in stone.First ImpressionTo help determine the 56 of attraction, researchers paired 164 college classmates and had them talk for 3, 6 or 10 minutes so they could get a sense of each other’s individu ality. Then students were asked to 57 what kind of relationship they were likely to build with their partners. After nine weeks, they reported what happened.As it turned out, their 58 judgments often held true. Students seemed to 59 at an early stage who would best fit into their lives.The 60 KnowsScientists have also turned to nonhumans to increase understanding of attraction. Many animals give off pheromones—natural chemicals that can be detected by, and then can produce a response in, other animals of the same species. Pheromones can signal that an animal is either ready to fight or is feeling 61 to partnerships. In contrast, humans do not seem to be as 62 as other animals at detecting such chemicals. Smell, however, does seem to play a part in human attraction. Although we may not be aware of chemicals like pheromones consciously, we give and receive loads of information through smell in every interaction with other people.Face ValueBeing fond of someone seems to have a number of factors, including seeing something we find attractive. Researchers had people judge faces for 63 . The participants had 0.013 seconds to view each face, yet somehow they generally considered the images the same as people who had more time to study the same faces. The way we 64 attractiveness seems to be somewhat automatic.When shown an attractive face and then words with good or bad associations, people responded to 65 words faster after viewing an attractive face. Seeing something attractive seems to cause happy thinking.51. A. Instead B. Therefore C. Moreover D. Otherwise52. A. romantic B. stressful C. central D. beneficial53.

A. emotions B. attractiveness C. individuality D. signals64. A. enhance B. possess C. maintain D. assess65. A. familiar B. plain C. positive D. insultingSection B 20%Directions: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)Life can be so wonderful, full of adventure and joy. It can also be full of challenges, setbacks and heartbreaks. Whatever our circumstances, we generally still have dreams, hopes and desires—that little something more we want for ourselves and our loved ones. Yet knowing we can have more can also create a problem, because when we go to change the way we do things, up come the old patterns and pitfalls that stopped us from seeking what we wanted in the first place.This tension between what we feel we can have and "what were seemingly able to have is the niggling suffering, the anxiety we feel. This is where we usually think it's easier to just give up. But we're never meant to let go of the part of us that knows we can have more. The intelligence behind that knowing is us—the real us. It's the part that believes in life and its possibilities. If you drop that, you begin to feel a little "dead" inside because you're dropping "you".So, if we have this capability but somehow life seems to keep us stuck, how do we break these patterns?Decide on a new course and make one decision at a time. This is good advice for a new adventure orjust getting through today's challenges.While, deep down, we know we can do it, our mind—or the minds of those close to us—usually says we can't. That isn't a reason to stop, it's just the mind, that little man or woman on your shoulder, trying to talk you out of something again. It has done it many times before. It's all about starting simple and doing it now.Decide and act before overthinking. When you do this you may feel a little, or large, release from the jail of your mind and you'll be on your way.66. It can be inferred from the first two paragraphs that we should ____________ .A. slow down and live a simple lifeB. be careful when we choose to changeC. stick to our dreams under any circumstancesD. be content with what we already have67. Which of the following best explains the underlined part in the last paragraph?A. Escape from your punishment.B. Realization of your dreams.C. Freedom from your tension.D. Reduction of your expectations.68. What does the author intend to tell us?A. It's easier than we think to get what we want.B. It's important to learn to accept sufferings in life.C. It's impractical to change our way of thinking.D. It's harder than we expect to follow a new course.A. show students the inspiring lives of historic figuresB. make the world a better place for teachers and studentsC. provide teachers with some useful materials and informationD. help students know that ordinary people can change the world70. What’s the chief purpose of the magazine Ultimate Spiderman?A. To encourage kids to learn about facts of interesting real-life spiders.B. To activate kids to become everyday heroes in real life.C. To tell interesting tidbits about the creation and evolution of Spider-Man.D. To solve a challenging “Spider-Cycle” maze and uncover a mystery cl ue.71. Which of the following statements is NOT true?A. Mysterious Island is a film made by TIME For Kids and its partner.B. The “Island of Ideas” program aims to cultivate creativity and imagination.C. Teacher’s Guide includes students’ disc ussions, activities and reproducible.D. Ultimate Mysterious X encourages students to uncover the treasure of ideas.(C)While still catching up to men in some sphere of modern life, women appear to be way ahead in at least one undesirable category. “Women are particularly susceptible to developing depression and anxiety disorders in response to stress compared to men,” according to Dr. Yehuda, chief psychologist at New York's Veteran’s Administration Hospital.Studies of both animals and humans have shown that sex hormones somehow affect the stress response, causing females under stress to produce more of the trigger chemicals than do males under the same conditions. In several of the studies, when stressed-out female rats had their ovaries (the female reproductive organs) removed, their chemical responses became equal to those of the males.Adding to a woman's increased dose of stress chemicals, are her increased “opportunities” for stress. “It's not necessarily that women don't cope as well. It's just that they have so much more to cope with,” says Dr. Yehuda. “Their capacity for tolerating stress may even be greater than men's,” she observes, “It's just that they're dealing with so many more things that they become worn out from it more visibly and sooner.”Dr. Yehuda notes another difference between the sexes. “I think that the kinds of things that women are exposed to tend to be in more of a chronic of repeated nature. Men go to war and are exposed to combat stress. Men are exposed to more acts of random physical violence. The kinds of interpersonal violence that women are exposed to tend to be in domestic situations, by, unfortunately, patents of other family members, and they tend not to be one-shot deals. The wear-and-tear that occurs from these longer relationships can be quite devastating.”Adeline Alvarez married at 18 and gave birth to a son, but was determined to finish college. “I struggled a lot to get the college degree. I was living in so much frustration that that was my escape to go to school, and get ahead and do better.” Later her marriage ended and she became a single mother: “It’s the hardest thing to take care of a teenager, have a job, pay the rent, pay the car payment, and pay the debt. I lived from paycheck to paycheck.Not everyone experiences the kinds of severe chronic stresses, Alvarez describes. But most women today are coping with a lot of obligations, with few breaks, and feeling the strain. Alvarez's experience demonstrates the importance of finding ways to diffuse stress before it threatens your health and your ability to function.63. Which of the following is true according to the first two paragraphs?A. Women are biologically more vulnerable to stress.B. Women are still suffering much stress caused by men.C. Women are more experienced than men in coping with stress.D. Men and women show different inclinations when faced with stress.64. Dr. Yehuda's research suggests that women_____________________.A. need extra doses of chemicals to handle stress.B. have limited capacity for tolerating stress.C. are more capable of avoiding stress.D. are exposed to more stress.65. According to Paragraph 4, the stress women confront tends to beA. domestic and temporary.B. irregular and violent.C. durable and frequent.D. trivial and random.66.

I' m tired of sitting here. Let's get up and besaved.” So he got up and was saved.Then I was left alone on the mourners' bench. My aunt came and knelt at my knees and cried, while prayers and songs circled, all around me in the little church. The whole room prayed for me alone. And I kept waiting quietly for Jesus, waiting, waiting-but he didn't come I wanted to see him, but nothing happened to me. Nothing!“Langston, why don't you come? Why don 't you come and be saved? Oh, Lamb of God! Why don't you come?”Now it was really getting late. I began to be ashamed of myself, holding everything up so long. I began to wonder what God thought about Westley, who certainly hadn't seen Jesus either, but who was now sitting proudly on the platform, swinging his legs and grinning down at me, surrounded by deacons(教堂执) and old women on their knees praying. God had not struck Westley dead for lying in the temple. So I decided that maybe to save further trouble, I'd better lie, too, and say that Jesus had come, and get up and be saved. So I got up.Suddenly the whole room broke into a sea of shouting, as they saw me rise. Waves of rejoicing swept the place. Women leaped in the air. My aunt threw her arms around me. The minister (牧师)took me by the hand and led me to the platform.When things quieted down, in a hushed silence, interrupted by a few joyous"Amens, "all the new young lambs were blessed in the name of God. Then happy singing filled the room.That night, for the last time in my life but one-for I was a big boy twelve years old-I cried. Icried, in bed alone, and couldn't stop. I buried my head under the quilts, but my aunt heard me. She woke up and told my uncle I was crying because the Holy Ghost had come into my life. but I was really crying because I couldn't bear to tell her that I deceived everybody in the church, that I hadn't seen Jesus, and that now I didn't believe there was a Jesus any more, since he didn't come to help me。

Reading Comprehension（54/100）Section A（30/100）You are watching a film in which two men are having a fight. They hit one another hard. ___26___ they only fight with their fists. But soon they begin hitting one another over the heads with chairs. And so it goes ___27___ until one of the men crashes ___28___ a window and falls thirty feet to the ground below. He is dead! ___29___ he isn’t really dead. With ___30___ luck he isn’t even hurt. Why? Because the men who fall out of high windows or jump from fast moving trains, who crash cars of even ___31___ fire, are professionals. They do this for a living. These men are called stuntmen. That is to say, they ___32___ tricks. There are two ___33___ to their work. They actually do most of the things you see on the screen. For example, they fall from a high building. However, they do not fall on to hard ground but on to ___34___ cardboard boxes covered with a mattress. Again, when they hit one another with chairs, the chairs are made of soft wood and when they break windows, the glass is made of sugar! But although their work depend on trick of this sort, it also requires a high ___35___ of skill and training. Often a stuntman’s success depends on careful ___36___. For example, when he is “___37___ up” in a battle scene, he has to jump out of the way of the explosion just at the right moment.Naturally stuntmen are well paid for their work, but they lead dangerous lives. They often get seriously injured, and sometimes killed. A Norwegian stuntman, ___38___, skied over the ___39___ of a cliff a thousand feet high. His parachute failed to open, and he was killed.

A. look on as B. show off C. dress up D. turn downSection B(24/100)（A）Have you ever had the experience of talking to someone and you think they are lying? Well, you are not alone. We’ve all had that feeling. But did you know that there are several things you can look for to see if you are being lied to?Sometimes you can tell if a person is lying by observing what they do with their body. When people are lying they tend not to move their arms, hands or legs very far from their body. They don’t want to take up very much space because they don’t want to be noticed. Sometimes a person who is lying will not look you in the eyes. Other times people who lie try to look at you in a strong way because they want to convince you they are telling the trugh. Liars also use deflection. For example, if you ask a liar the question“Did you steal Fatima’s bag?”they may answer with something like“Fatima is my friend. Why would I do that?”In this situation the person is telling the truth, but they are also not answering the question. They are trying to deflect your attention. Liars may also give too many details. They may try to over-explain things. They do this because they want to convince you of what they are saying.Often when a person is lying, they do not want to continue talking about their lie. If you think someone is lying, quickly change the subject. If the person is lying, they will spear more comfortable because they are not talking about their lie any longer. A little later, change the subject back to what you were talking about before. If the person seems uncomfortable again, they may be lying.It’s very hard for a liar to avoid filling silence created by you. He or she wants you to believe the lies being woven; silence gives no feedback on whether or not you’ve bought the story. If you’re a good listener, you’ll already be avoiding interruptions, which in itself is a great technique to let the story unfold.Just because a person is showing these behaviors, it does not mean they are lying. They might be shy or nervous. But, if you think someone is lying, you might want to use some of these techniques. Hopefully, you won’t need to very often.41. According to the passage, a person could be lying he or she _____.B. appears to be shy or nervousC. changes the subject of the conversationD. speaks very fast and vaguely42. Which of the following can be learned from the passage?A. Liars always try to avoid direct eye contact when they tell lies.B. We can make people lie by changing the subject in a conversation.C. Liars are often expansive in hand and arm movements while talking.D. We make liars uncomfortable by giving no feedback in a conversation.43. The passage mainly talks about ____.A. who deceives usB. why people tell liesC. how to detect liesD. what to do with liars（B）A person , like a commodity, needs packaging. But going too far is absolutely undesirable. A little exaggeration, however, does no harm when it shows the person’s unique qualities to their advantages. To show personal attractiveness in a casual and natural way, it is important for one to have a clear knowledge of oneself. A skilled packager knows how to add art to nature without any signs of embellishment, so that the person so packaged is not a commodity but a human being, lively and lovely.A young person, especially a female, shining with beauty and full of life, has all the favor granted by God. Any attempt to make up would be self-defeating. Youth, however, comes and goes in a flash. Packaging for the middle-aged is primarily to hide the marks made by years. If you still enjoy life enough to keep self-confidence and work at pioneering work, you are unique in your natural qualities, and your attractiveness and grace will remain. Elderly people are beautiful if their river of life has been, through plains, mountains and jungles, running its course as it should. You have really lived your life, which now arrives at a self - satisfied stage of quietness and calmness with no interest in fame or wealth. There is no need to make use of hair dyeing. The snowcapped mountain itself is itself a beautiful scene of fairyland. Let your looks change from young to old in step with the natural ageing process so as to keep in harmony with nature, for harmony itself is beauty, while the other way round will only end in unpleasantness.To be in the company of the elderly is like reading a thick book of (better quality) edition, which attracts one so much that one is unwilling to part with it.As long as one finds where one stands, one knows how to package oneself, just as a commodity sets up its brand by the right packaging.44. It can be concluded from the passage that ____.A. people should be packaged at all agesB. people should be packaged in a special wayC. elderly people also care about packagingD. proper packaging makes people attractive45. According to the author, if you want to keep in harmony with nature, you should ____.A. dye your hairB. wear makeup at a young ageC. follow the aging processD. give up fame and wealth46. The underlined part refers to the way of ____.A. dyeing one’s black hair whiteB. keeping in harmony with natureC. packaging oneself skillfullyD. packaging oneself to hide the traces of aging47. The passage implies that elderly people are attractive because ____.A. they are usually packaged like a finely-made bookB. they experience a lot and have rich knowledge of lifeC. they are unique in natural qualitiesD. they enjoy reading thick books of beautiful nature and fairylandSection CRead an except from the novel The Boy in the Striped Pyjamas and put the description of body language intheir places standing side by side by the staircase and Mother waited beside them, ___48___. Father gave them all a quick glance and nodded, looking pleased by what he saw, and then opened the door.Two people stood outside: a rather small man and a taller woman.Father saluted them and ushered them inside, where Maria, ___49___, took their coats and the introductions were made. They spoke to Mother first, which gave Bruno an opportunity to stare at their guests and decide for himself whether they deserved all the hiss being made of them.The Fury was far shorter than Father and not, Bruno supposed, quite as strong. He had dark hair, which was cut quite short, and a tiny moustache—so tiny in fact that Bruno wondered why he bothered with it at all or whether he had simply forgotten a piece when he was shaving. The woman standing beside him, however, was quite the most beautiful woman he had ever seen in his life. She had blonde hair and very red lips, and while the Fury spoke to Mother she ___50___, making him go red with embarrassment.“And these are my children, Fury,”said Father as Gretel and Bruno stepped forward.“Gretel and Bruno.”“And which is which?”the Fury said, which made everyone laugh except for Bruno, who thought it was perfectly obvious which was which and hardly cause for joke. The Fury stretched out his hand and shook their and Gretel ___51___. Bruno was delighted when it went wrong and she almost fell over.“When charming children,”said the beautiful blonde woman.“And how old are they, might I ask?”“I’m twelve but he’s only nine,”said Gretel, looking at her brother with disdain.“And I can speak French too,”she added, which was not strictly speaking true, although she had learned a few phrases in school.“Yes, but why would you want to?”asked the Fury, and this time no one laughed; instead they ___52___ and Gretel stared at him, unsure whether he wanted an answer or not.Ⅰ. Recitation（5/100）Complete the two paragraphs taken from Eye Contact in the More Reading section of Unit one.In many Asian cultures, ___53___ shows respect.

He knewclearly (31) education could give people power and change their lives forthe better: Khanwent to a public high school (32) “a few classmates were fresh out of jail〞, as he told The NewYork Times, but he got into the Massachusetts Institute of Technology.He got Bachelor of Science degrees in mathematics, electrical engineering and computer science, and also got a Master of Business Administration degree from Harvard Business School. Khan then worked as asuccessful hedge-fund analyst (对冲基金分析师).It all began in 2019 (33) Khan began tutoring his cousins who were having difficulty with math. To make it easier to communicate with them, he decided to put the lessons online as a series of videos. His cousins quickly found that they preferred seeing Khan online.“(34) (have) a video lesson that they could pause and repeat made it easier to learn 〞commented Wired magazine, without tiring their tutor.He started to realize that the videos could help a lot more people and never grow old. He then quit his job, made more than 4,800 videos teaching math of all grades, put them online, and started Khan Academy in 2019.“My ideas about teaching were straightforward and deeply personal. I wanted to teach in the way I wished that I(35) (teach). I hoped to show the joy of learning, the excitement of understanding things about the universe. I wanted to pass along to students not only the logic but the beauty of math and science,〞he wrote in his book The One World Schoolhouse: Education Reimagined.The academy has become so popular across the world (36) celebrities and businesspeople are starting to offer donations, (37) (include) Microsoft founder Bill Gates. He has donated more than $9 million (about 57 million yuan) to the academy organization, reported Forbes.However, Khan doesn’t want to make money from it. “My goal is (38) (make) learningfaster for students of all ages. (39) so little effort on my own part, I can give a large number of people power for all time. I can’t think of a (40) (good) use of my time,〞Khan said in his TED talk. Section C 10%Directions: Complete the following passage by using the words in the box. Each word can only A pen has always been a(n)(41) tool when it comes to taking exams. However, in this digital age, this traditional tool may become a thing of the past.Cambridge University in Britain is considering ending 800 years of written exams and allowing students to use laptops or Ipads to take exams instead.The move comes after Cambridge teachers complained that student s’ handwriting is becoming toohard to recognize. The (42) in being able to write neatly could largelybe down to the(43) on laptops in lectures and elsewhere.“There has definitely been a(n)(44)trend.

Tracy Trussell, a handwriting expert at the British Institute of Graphologists, (47) Cambridge to "make sure that students continue to write by hand, particularly in lectures". She told The Telegraph thatwriting by hand could help students improve their memory and understand lessons better.Meanwhile, there are also concerns that primary and secondary schools could follow Cambridge's exampleIn fact, a similar plan was carried out for some first- and second-year students at Edinburgh University in the UK in 2019, reported The Scotsman. Senior officials at the university believed it was(48) to expect students to use pens and paper during exams when most oftheir coursework was done using computers.The move also echoes the opinions of Harvard professor Eric Mazur, known as the father ofthe" flipped classroom(翻转课堂).

Reading ComprehensionSection A 15%Directions: 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.If you studied pictures that ancient people left on rock walls and you tried to determine their meaning,you would not detect a deep interest in romance among the artists. 51 , you wouldsee plenty of animals with people running after them. Life for ancient people seemed to centeron hunting and gathering wild foods for meals.In modern times, when food is available in grocery stores, finding love is more 52 to people’s lives. The 53 is all around us. It is easy to prepare a list of modernstories having to do with love. An endless number of books and movies qualify as love stories in popular culture.Researchers are studying whether love, a highly valued emotional state, can be 54 . They ask, what is love? Toothpaste companies want us to think attraction is all about clean teeth,but clean teeth go only so far. Scientists wonder how much the brain gets involved. You have probably heard that opposites attract but that 55 attract, too. One thing is certain:The truth about love is not yet set in stone.First ImpressionTo help determine the 56 of attraction, researchers paired 164 college classmates andhad themtalk for 3, 6 or 10 minutes so they could get a sense of each other’s individuality. Then students were asked to 57 what kind of relationship they were likely to build withtheir partners. After nine weeks, they reported what happened.As it turned out, their 58 judgments often held true. Students seemed to 59 at an early stage who would best fit into their lives.The 60 KnowsScientists have also turned to nonhumans to increase understanding of attraction. M any animalsgiveoff pheromones—natural chemicals that can be detected by, and then can produce a response in, other animals of the same species. Pheromones can signal that an animal is either ready tofight or is feeling61 to partnerships. In contrast, humans do not seem to be as 62 as other animalsat detecting such chemicals. Smell, however, does seem to play a part in human attraction. Although we may not be aware ofchemicals like pheromones consciously, we give and receive loads of information through smellin everyinteraction with other people.Face ValueBeing fond of someone seems to have a number of factors, including seeing something wefindattractive. Researchers had people judge faces for 63 . The participants had 0.013 seconds to view each face, yet somehow they generally considered the images the same as peoplewho had more time to study the same faces. The way we 64 attractiveness seems to be somewhat automatic.When shown an attractive face and then words with good or bad associations, people respondedto65 words faster after viewing an attractive face. Seeing something attractive seems tocause happy thinking.Directions: 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)Life can be so wonderful, full of adventure and joy. It can also be full of challenges, setbacks and heartbreaks. Whatever our circumstances, we generally still have dreams, hopes and desires—that little something more we want for ourselves and our loved ones. Yet knowing we can have more can also create a problem, because when we go to change the way we do things, up comethe old patterns and pitfalls that stopped us from seeking what we wanted in the first place.This tension between what we feel we can have and "what were seemingly able to have is the niggling suffering, the anxiety we feel. This is where we usually think it's easier to justgive up. But we're never meant to let go of the part of us that knows we can have more. The intelligence behind that knowing is us—the real us. It's the part that believes in life andits possibilities. If you drop that, you begin to feel a little "dead" inside because you're dropping "you".So, if we have this capability but somehow life seems to keep us stuck, how do we break these patterns? Decide on a new course and make one decision at a time. This is good advice for a new adventure orjust getting through today's challenges.While, deep down, we know we can do it, our mind—or the minds of those close to us—usually says we can't. That isn't a reason to stop, it's just the mind, that little man or woman on your shoulder, trying totalk you out of something again. It has done it many times before. It's all about starting simple and doing it now.Decide and act before overthinking. When you do this you may feel a little, or large, release from the jail of your mind and you'll be on your way.66. It can be inferred from the first two paragraphs that we should .A. slow down and live a simple lifeB. be careful when we choose to changeC. stick to our dreams under any circumstancesD. be content with what we already have67. Which of the following best explains the underlined part in the last paragraph?A. Escape from your punishment.B. Realization of your dreams.C. Freedom from your tension.D. Reduction of your expectations.68. What does the author intend to tell us?A. It's easier than we think to get what we want.B. It's important to learn to accept sufferings in life.C. It's impractical to change our wayof thinking.D. It's harder than we expect to follow a new course.The Mysterious IslandDiscover Your Island of Ideas!TIME For Kids has partnered with the creators of the film The Mysterious Island tointroduce creativity and imagination through the “Island of Ideas〞program.

In several of the studies, when stressed-out female rats had their ovaries (the female reproductive organs) removed, their chemical responses became equal to those of the males.Adding to a woman's increased dose of stress chemicals, are her increased “oppo rtunities〞 for stres s. “It's not necessarily that women don't cope as well. It's just that they have so much more to cope with,〞 says Dr. Yehuda. “Their capacity for tolerating stress may even be greater than men's,〞she observes, “It's just that they're dealing with so many more things that they become worn out from it more visibly and sooner.〞Dr. Yehuda notes another difference between the sexes. “I think that the kinds of things that womenare exposed to tend to be in more of a chronic of repeated nature. Men go to war and are exposed to combat stress. Men are exposed to more acts of random physical violence. The kinds of interpersonal violence that women are exposed to tend to be in domestic situations, by, unfortunately, patents of other family members, and they tend not to be one-shot deals. The wear-and-tear that occurs from these longer relationships can be quite devastating.〞Adeline Alvarez married at 18 and gave birth to a son, but was determined to finish college. “I struggled a lot to get the college degree. I was living in so much frustration that that was my escape to go to school, and get ahead and do better.〞 Later her marriage ended and she became a single mother: “It’s the hardest thing to take care of a teenager, have a job, pay the rent, pay the car payment, and pay the debt. I lived from paycheck to paycheck.Not everyone experiences the kinds of severe chronic stresses, Alvarez describes. But most women today are coping with a lot of obligations, with few breaks, and feeling the strain. Alvarez's experience demonstrates the importance of finding ways to diffuse stress before it threatens your health and your ability to function.63. Which of the following is true according to the first two paragraphs?A. Women are biologically more vulnerable to stress.B. Women are still suffering much stress caused by men.C. Women are more experienced than men in coping with stress.D. Men and women show different inclinations when faced with stress.64. Dr. Yehuda's research suggests that women .A. need extra doses of chemicals to handle stress.B. have limited capacity for tolerating stress.C. are more capable of avoiding stress.D. are exposed to more stress.65. According to Paragraph 4, the stress women confront tends to beA. domestic and temporary.B. irregular and violent.C. durable and frequent.D. trivial and random.66.
