They don't think they are the happiest of the people around them. They would point out that one of their neighbors is happier than anyone of them, “Doctor Frank has a career himself. His wife is the most beautiful and well-educated lady in the community. No, I don't think I am happier than Doctor Frank. At least my career is not as successful as his.”Most of us compare ourselves with anyone we think is happier, a relative, a close friend or, often, someone we even hardly know. I once met a young man who struck me as particularly successful and happy. He spoke of his love for his beautiful wife and their daughters, and of his joy at being a TV talk-show host. I remember thinking he was one of the lucky few for whom everything goes effortlessly right. Once we talked about the Internet, he is grateful for its existence. He told me, because he could look up information on diabetes, the terrible disease that made his wife suffer and could possibly be passed down to his lovely children. When I heard this, I felt like a fool for taking it for granted that nothing unhappy existed in his life.This made me think a lot and I soon drew one of the most significant conclusions about happiness: there is little relation between the situations of people's lives and how happy they are. We all know people who are richer and have an easier life than others, yet they are essentially unhappy. And we know people who have suffered a great deal but generally remain happy. Unhappiness is like looking at something and fixing on even the smallest fault. As a bald man told me, “Whenever I enter a room, all I see is hair.”It is hard for us to give up the image of “being perfect.”As nothing is perfect, anyone can be unhappy. It takes no courage or effort to be unhappy. True happiness lies in struggling to be happy.(1). According to the author, most people would ____________ they are the happiest in the world.A doubt whetherB think about whetherC not think that参考答案：C；考生答案：C；试题分数：4；考生得分：4(2). The author thinks that people quite often compare themselves with ____________.Aa close friendB a relativeC anyone they think is happier参考答案：C；考生答案：C；试题分数：4；考生得分：4(3). What is NOT true about the young man the author once met with?A He is a TV talk show host.B Everything goes effortlessly right for him.C He loves his wife and their daughters.参考答案：B；考生答案：B；试题分数：4；考生得分：4(4). After talking with the young man about the Internet, the author realizes ____________.A that he is mistaken in thinking nothing unhappy existed in the latter’s lifeB how terribly the young man’s wife suffer from the disease - diabetesC that there is a lot of information one can look up in the Internet参考答案：A；考生答案：A；试题分数：4；考生得分：4(5). The significant conclusion the author draws about happiness is that ____________.A true happiness lies in struggling to be happyB unhappiness is like looking at something and fixing on even the smallest faultC it is hard for us to give up the image of "being perfect"参考答案：A；考生答案：A；试题分数：4；考生得分：4主观题作文（共1题，共20分）Direction: 根据提纲，介绍你的家庭，写出一篇不少于80字的短文。

Blocks of "high-rise" flats have been built in large numbers in London and in many other big cities. Just after the Second World War these big , twenty-to-thirty storey buildings , hundreds of feet in height , were thought to be the ideal solution to the housing problem. For on the one hand , there was severe housing shortage , but on the other hand , there was lack of space to build houses in urban areas. Blocks of "high-rise" flats seemed , at first , to be able to solve the problem , since they can offer space for more families to live in on less land. The beautiful , modern apartments in the high-rises were much sought after by people who lived downtown. H undreds of the vast blocks had been built before anyone began to doubt about whether they w.ere good solutions or not. Are they suitable places for people , children especially , to live in? A well-known British architect , who personally designed many of these buildings , now believes that the high-rises may well make those people who have been housed in them suffer a great dea l. Evidence has been collected by social workers , which suggests that people do suffer. They complain about severe loneliness and deep depression living within these great towers. People also talk about lack of communication with others , no easy access to a playground for children , no chances for adults to get familiarized with each

A reportercan send the news to a network like CBS News and within seconds it can be all over the world. They send electronic reports that go straight into the newspaper or onto the TV screen. Reporters can now also transmit images through their mobile phones. Consequently, live, “on-the-spot” reporting has become the norm and TV viewers can get a much better idea of what a natural disaster, a conflict or an interesting scientific discovery is like. In recent years, several changes have occurred in the ownership of news media. Networks owned by large companies and governments have become bigger and very powerful. These networks – such as BBC News 24 – are hungry for news and have huge audiences. However, there can only be a limited number of such networks and their ownership is a big issue. Some companies not only own TV and radio networks but newspaper groups as well. Who decides what news to publish and what sort of “spin” to put on it? Is it always objective? There are now “spin doctors” who manipulate the news, emphasising certain parts and not others – and as a result, much of it is not neutral. Therefore, the question of control of the media matters very much. In some cases, the media companies are more powerful than governments. They can even influence elections. So the question is – should they be controlled and if so, by whom? 操作提示：通过题干后的下拉框选择题目的正确答案。

to their finances that's replacing-and sometimes joining-expensive textbooks:pricey online access codes that are required to complete coursework and submit assignments.B)The codes-which typically range in price from$80to$155per course give students online access to systems developed by education companies like McGraw Hill and Pearson.These companies,which long reaped big profits as textbook publishers,have boasted that their new online offerings,when pushed to students through universities they partner with represent the future of the industry.C)But critics say the digital access codes represent the same profit-seeking ethos(观念)of the textbook business,and are even harder for students to opt out of.While they could once buy second-hand textbooks,or share copies with friends,the digital systems are essentially impossible to avoid.D)"When we talk about the access code we see it as the new face of the textbook monopoly(垄断),a new way to lock students around this system,"said Ethan Senack,the higher education advocate for the U.S.Public Interest Research Group,to BuzzFeed News."Rather than$250(for a print textbook)you're paying$120,"said Senack"But because it's all digital it eliminates the used book market and eliminates any sharing and because homework and tests are through anE)Sarina Harpet,a19-year-old student at Virginia Tech,was faced with a tough dilemma when she first started college in2015—pay rent or pay to turn in her chemistry homework.She told BuzzFeed News that her freshman chemistry class required her to use Connect,a system provided by McGraw Hill where students can submit homework,take exams and track their grades.But the code to access the program cost$120—a big sum for Harper,who had already put down$450for textbooks,and had rent day approaching.F)She decided to wait for her next work-study paycheck,which was typically$150-$200,to pay for the code.She knew that her chemistry grade may take a dive as a result."It's a balancing act,"she said. "Can I really afford these access codes now?"She didn't hand in her first two assignments for chemistry,which started her out in the class with a failing grade.G)The access codes may be another financial headache for students,but for textbook businesses,they're the future.McGraw Hill,which controls21%of the higher education market,reported in March that its digital content sales exceeded print sales for the first time in2015.The company said that45%of its$140million re venue in2015"was derived from digital products."H)A Pearson spokesperson told BuzzFeed News that"digital materials are less expensive and a good investment"that offer new features,like audio texts,personalized knowledge checks and expert videos.Its digital course materials save students up to60%compared to traditional printed textbooks,the company added.McGraw Hill didn't respond to a request for comment,but its CEO David Levin told the Financial Times in August that"in higher education,the era of the printed t extbook is now over."I)The textbook industry insists the online systems represent a better deal for students."These digital products aren't just mechanisms for students to submit homework,they offer all kinds of features,"David Anderson,the executive director of higher education with the Association of American Publishers,told BuzzFeed News."It helps students understand in a way that you can't do with print homework assignments."J)David Hunt,an associate professor in sociology at Augusta University,which has rolled out digital textbooks across its math and psychology departments,told BuzzFeed News that he understands the utility of using systems that require access codes.But he doesn't require his students to buy access to a learning program that controls the class assignments."I try to make things as inexpensive as possible,"said Hunt,who uses free digital textbooks for his classes but designs his own curriculum."The online systems may make my life a lot easier but I feel like I'm giving up control.The discussions are the things where my expertise can benefit the students most."K)A20-year-old junior at Georgia Southern University told BuzzFeed News that she normally spends$500-$600on access codes for class.In one case,the professor didn't require students to buy a textbook,just an access code to turn in homework.This year she said she spent$900on access codes to books and programs."That's two months of rent,"she said." You can't sell any of it back.With a traditional textbook you can sell it for$30-$50and that helps to pay for your new semester's books.With an access code,you're out of that money."L)Benjamin Wolverton,a19-year-old student at the University of South Carolina,told BuzzFeed News that"it's ridiculous that after paying tens of thousands in tuition we have to pay for all these access codes to do our homework."Many of the access codes he's purchased have been required simply to complete homework or quizzes."Often it's only10%of your grade in class."he said."You're paying so much money for something that hardly affects your grade—but if you didn't have it,it would affect your grades enough.It would be bad to start out at a B or C."Wolverton said he spent$500on access codes for digital books and programs this semester.M)Harper,a poultry(禽)science major,is taking chemistry again this year and had to buy anew access code to hand in her homework.She rented her economics and statistics textbooks for about$20each.But her access codes for homework,which can't be rented or bought second-hand,were her most expensive purchases:$120and$85.N)She still remembers the sting of her first experience skipping an assignment due to the high prices. "We don't really have a missed assignment policy,"she said."If you miss it,you just miss it.I just got zeros on a couple of first assignments.I managed to pull everything backup.But as a scared fresh man looking at their grades,it's not fun."36.A student's yearly expenses on access codes may amount to their rent for two months.37.The online access codes may be seen as a way to tie the students to the digital system.38.If a student takes a course again,they may have to buy a new access code to submit their assignments.39.McGraw Hill accounts for over one-fifth of the market share of college textbooks.40.Many traditional textbook publishers are now offering online digital products,which theybelieve will be the fu ture of the publishing business.41.One student complained that they now had to pay for access codes in addition to the high tuition.42.Digital materials can cost students less than half the price of traditional printed books according to a publisher.43.One student decided not to buy her access code until she received the pay for her part-time job.44.Online systems may deprive teachers of opportunities to make the best use of their expertise for their students.45.Digital access codes are criticized because they are profit-driven just like the text book business.Section CDirections:There are2passages in this section.Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished statements.For each of them there are four choices marked A),B),C)and D).You should decide on the best choice and mark the corresponding letter on Answer Sheet2with a single line through the centre.Passage OneQuestions46to50are based on the following passage.Losing your ability to think and remember is pretty scary.We know the risk of dementia(痴呆症)increases with age.But if you have memory slips,you probably needn't worry.There are pretty clear differences between signs of dementia and age-related memory loss.After age50,it's quite common to have trouble remembering the names of people,places and things quickly,says Dr.Kirk Daffner of Brigham and Women's Hospital in Boston.The brain ages just like the rest of the body.Certain parts shrink,especially areas in the brain that are important to learning,memory and planning.Changes in brain cells can affect communication between different regions of the brain.And blood flow can be reduced as blood vessels narrow.Forgetting the name of an actor in a favorite movie,for example,is nothing to worry about.But if you forget the plot of the movie or don't remember even seeing it,that's far more concerning,Daffner says.When you forget entire experiences,he says,that's"a red flag that something more serious may be involved."Forgetting how to operate a familiar object like a microwave oven,or forgetting how to drive to the house of a friend you've visited many times before can also be signs of something going wrong.But even then,Daffner says,people shouldn't panic.There are many things that can cause confusion and memory loss,including health problems like temporary stoppage of breathing during sleep,high blood pressure,or depression,as well as medications(药物)like antidepressants.You don't have to figure this out on your own.Daffner suggests going to your doctor to check on medications,health problems and other issues that could be affecting memory.And the best defense against memory loss is to try to prevent it by building up your brain's cognitive(认知的)reserve,Daffner says."Read books,go to movies,take on new hobbies or activities that force one to think in novel ways,"he says.In other words,keep your brain busy and working.And also get physically active,because exercise is a known brain booster.46.Why does the author say that one needn't be concerned about memory slips?A)Not all of them are symptoms of dementia.B)They occur only among certain groups of people.C)Not all of them are related to one's age.D)They are quite common among fifty-year-olds.47.What happens as we become aged according to the passage?A)Our interaction skills deteriorate.B)Some parts of our brain stop functioning.C)Communication within our brain weakens.D)Our whole brain starts shrinking.48.Which memory-related symptom should people take seriously?A)Totally forgetting how to do one's daily routines.B)Inability to recall details of one's life experiences.C)Failure to remember the names of movies or actors.D)Occasionally confusing the addresses of one's friends.49.What should people do when signs of serious memory loss show up?A)Check the brain's cognitive reserve.B)Stop medications affecting memory.C)Turn to a professional for assistance.D)Exercise to improve their well-being.50.What is Dr.Daffner's advice for combating memory loss?A)Having regular physical and mental checkups.B)Taking medicine that helps boost one's brain.C)Engaging in known memory repair activities.D)Staying active both physically and mentally.Passage TwoQuestions51to55are based on the following passage.A letter written by Charles Darwin in1875has been returned to the Smithsonian Institution Archives(档案馆)by the FBI after being stolen twice."We realized in the mid-1970s that it was missing,"says Effie Kapsalis,head of the Smithsonian Institution Archives."It was noted as missing and likely taken by an intern(实习生),from what the FBI is telling us.Word got out that it was missing when someone asked to see the letter forresearch purposes,"and the intern put the letter back."The intern likely took the letter again once nobody was watching it."Decades passed.Finally,the FBI received a tip that the stolen document was located very close to Washington, D.C.Their art crime team recovered the letter but were unable to press charges because the time of limitations had ended.The FBI worked closely with the Archives to determine that the letter was both authentic and definitely Smithsonian's property.The letter was written by Darwin to thank an American geologist,Dr.Ferdinand Vandeveer Hayden,for sending him copies of his research into the geology of the region that would become Yellowstone National Park.The letter is in fairly good condition,in spite of being out of the care of trained museum staff for so long. "It was luckily in good shape,"says Kapsalis,"and we just have to do some minor things in order to be able to unfold it.It has some glue on it that has colored it slightly,but nothing that will prevent us from using it.After it is repaired,we will take digital photos of it and that will be available online.One of our goals is to get items of high research value or interest to the public online."It would now be difficult for an intern,visitor or a thief to steal a document like this."Archiving practices have changed greatly since the1970s,"says Kapsalis,"and we keep our high value documents in a safe that I don't even have access to."51.What happened to Darwin's letter in the1970s?A)It was recovered by the FBI.B)It was stolen more than once.C)It was put in the archives for research purposes.D)It was purchased by the Smithsonian Archives.52.What did the FBI do after the recovery of the letter?A)They proved its authenticity.B)They kept it in a special safe.C)They arrested the suspect immediately.D)They pressed criminal charges in vain.53.What is Darwin's letter about?A)The evolution of Yellowstone National Park.B)His cooperation with an American geologist.C)Some geological evidence supporting his theory.D)His acknowledgement of help from a professional.54.What will the Smithsonian Institution Archives do with the letter according to Kapsalis?A)Reserve it for research purposes only.B)Turn it into an object of high interest.C)Keep it a permanent secret.D)Make it available online.55.What has the past half century witnessed according to Kapsalis?A)Growing interest in rare art objects.B)Radical changes in archiving practices.C)Recovery of various missing documents.D)Increases in the value of museum exhibits.Part IV Translation(30minutes) Directions:For this part,you are allowe d30minutes to translate a passage from Chinese into English.You should write your answer on Answer Sheet2.过去，乘飞机出行对大多数中国人来说是难以想象的。
