Living just a few blocks from the beach, Natalie can see the ocean and hear the wave from her house. “It’s the ocean that makes Rockaway so special,” she says.On October 29, 2012, that ocean turned fierce. That night, Hurricane Sandy attacked the East Coast, and Rockaway was hit especially hard. Fortunately, Natalie’s family escaped to Brooklyn shortly before the city’s bridge closed.When they returned to Rockaway the next day, they found their neighborhood in ruins. Many of Natalie’s friends had lost their homes and were living far away. All around her, people were suffering, especially the elderly. Natalie’s school was so damaged that she had to temporarily attend a school in Brooklyn.In the following few days, the men and women helping Rockaway recover inspired Natalie. Volunteers came with carloads of donated clothing and toys. Neighbors devoted their spare time to helping others rebuild. Teenagers climbed dozens of flights of stairs to deliver water and food to elderly people trapped in powerless high-rise buildings.“My mom tells me that I can’t control what happens to me,” Natalie says. “but I can always choose how I deal with it.”Natalie’s choice was to help.She created a website page matching survivors in need with donors who wanted tohelp. Natalie posted introduction about a boy named Patrick, who lost his baseball card collecting when his house burned down. Within days, Patrick’s collection was replaced.In the coming months, her website page helped lots of kids: Christopher, who received a new basketball; Charlie, who got a new keyboard. Natalie also worked with other organizations to bring much-need supplies to Rockaway. Her efforts made her a famous person. Last April, she was invited to the White House and honored as a Hurricane Sandy Champion of Change.Today, the scars(创痕)of destruction are still seen in Rockaway, but hope is in the air. The streets are clear, and many homes have been rebuilt. “I can’t imagine living anywhere but Rockaway,” Natalie declares. “My neighbo rhood will be back, even stronger than before.”4. When Natalie returned to Rockaway after the hurricane, she found______.A. some friends had lost their livesB. her neighborhood was destroyedC. her school had moved to BrooklynD. the elderly were free from suffering5. According to paragraph4, who inspired Natalie most?A. The people helping Rockaway rebuildB. The people trapped in high rise buildingC. The volunteers donating money to survivorsD. Local teenagers bringing clothing to elderly people6. How did Natalie help the survivors?A. She gave her toys to the kidsB. She took care of younger childrenC. She called on the White House to helpD. She built an information sharing platform7. What does the story intend to tell us?A. Little people can make a big differenceB.A friend in need is a friend indeedC. East or West, home is bestD. Technology is powerCWealth starts with a goal saving a dollar at a time. Call it the piggy bankstrategy(策略). There are lessons in that time-honored coin-saving container.Any huge task seems easier when reduced to baby steps. I f you wished to climba 12,000-foot mountain, and could do it a day at a time, you would only have to climb33 feet daily to reach the top in a year. If you want to take a really nice trip in10 years for a special occasion, to collect the $15,000 cost, you have to save $3.93a day. If you drop that into a piggy bank and then once a year put $1,434 in a savings account at 1% interest rate after-tax, you will have your trip money.When I was a child, my parents gave me a piggy bank to teach me that, if I wanted something, I should save money to buy it. We associate piggy banks with children, but in many countries, the little containers are also popular with adults. Europeans see a piggy bank as a sign of good fortune and wealth. Around the world, many believe a gift of a piggy bank on New Year’s Day brings good luck and financial success. Ah, but you have to put something in it.Why is a pig used as a symbol of saving? Why not an elephant bank, which is bigger and holds more coins? In the Middle Ages, before modern banking and credit instruments, people saved money at home, a few coins at a time dropped into a jar or dish. Potters(制陶工) made these inexpensive containers from an orange-colored clay(黏土) called “pygg,” and folks saved coins in pygg jars.The Middle English word for pig was “pigge”. While the Saxons pronounced pygg, referring to the clay, as “pug”, eventually the two words changed into the same pronunciation, sounding the “i” as in p ig or piggy. As the word became less associated with the orange clay and more with the animal, a clever potter fashioned a pygg jar in the shape of a pig, delighting children and adults. The piggy bank was born.Originally you had to break the bank to get to the money, bringing in a sense of seriousness into savings. While piggy banks teach children the wisdom of saving, adults often need to relearn childhood lessons. Think about the things in life that require large amounts of money--- college education, weddings, cars, medical care, starting a business, buying a home, and fun stuff like great trips. So when you have money, take off the top 10%, put it aside, save and invest wisely.8. What is the piggy bank strategy?A. Paying 1% income tax at a time.B. Setting a goal before making a travel plan.C. Aiming high even when doing small things.D. Putting aside a little money regularly for future use.9. Why did the writer’s parents give him a piggy bank as a gift?A. To delight him with the latest fashion.B. To encourage him to climb mountains.C. To help him form the habit of saving.D. To teach him English pronunciation.10. What does then underlined word “something”(Para. 3) most probably refer to?A. MoneyB. GiftsC. Financial successD. Good luck11. The last paragraph talks about ________.A. the seriousness of educating childrenB. the enjoyment of taking a great tripC. the importance of managing moneyD. the difficulty of starting a businessDTransparent（透明的） animals let light pass through their bodies the same way light passes through a window. These animals typically live between the surface of the ocean and a depth of about 3,300 feet—as far as most light can reach. Most of them are extremely delicate and can be damaged by a simple touch. Sonke Johnsen, a scientist in biology, says, “These animals live through their life alone. They never touch anything unless they’re eating it, or unless something is eating them.”And they are as clear as glass. How does an animal become see-through? It’s trickier than you might think.The objects around you are visible because they interact with light. Light typically travels in a straight line. But some materials slow and scatter(散射) light, bouncing it away from its original path. Others absorb light, stopping it dead in its tracks. Both scattering and absorption make an object look different from other objects around it, so you can see it easily.But a transparent object doesn’t absorb or scatter light, at least not very much, Light can pass through it without bending or stopping. That means a transparent objectdoesn’t look very different from the surrounding air or water. You don’t see it ----you see the things behind it.To become transparent, an animal needs to keep its body from absorbing or scattering light. Living materials can stop light because they contain pigments(色素) that absorb specific colors of light. But a transparent animal doesn’t have pigments, so its tissues won’t abs orb light. According to Johnsen, avoiding absorption is actually easy. The real challenge is preventing light from scattering.Animals are built of many different materials----skin, fat, and more----and light moves through each at a different speed. Every time light moves into a material with a new speed, it bends and scatters. Transparent animals use different tricks to fight scattering. Some animals are simply very small or extremely flat. Without much tissue to scatter light, it is easier to be see—through. Others build a large, clear mass of non-living jelly-lie(果冻状的)material and spread themselves over it .Larger transparent animals have the biggest challenge, because they have to make all the different tissues in their bodies slow down light exactly as much as water does. They need to look uniform. But how they’re doing it is still unknown. One thing is clear for these larger animals, staying transparent is an active process. When they die, they turn a non-transparent milky white.12. According to Paragraph 1, transparent animals_______.A. stay in groupsB. can be easily damagedC. appear only in deep oceanD. are beautiful creatures13. The underlined word “dead” in Paragraph 3 means__________.A. silentlyB. graduallyC. regularlyD. completely14. One way for an animal to become transparent is to ________.A. change the direction of light travelB. gather materials to scatter light.C. avoid the absorption of lightD. grow bigger to stop light.15. The last paragraph tells us that larger transparent animals________.A. move more slowly in deep waterB. stay see-through even after deathC. produce more tissues for their survivalD. take effective action to reduce light spreading第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，共10分）根据短文内容，从短文后的七个选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

October8BAs Artificial Intelligence becomes increasingly complicated, 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.For 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 the kind of thing a properly brought-up person would do.It will be possible to create more complex 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 do enough 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 has the 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.4.What does the author say about the threat of robots?A. It may be a challenge to computer programmers.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 danger as technology gets more sophisticated.5. How do robots learn human values?A. By interacting with humans in everyday life situations.B. By picking up patterns from massive data on human behavior.C. By following the daily routines of civilized human beings.D. By imitating the behavior of properly brought-up human beings.6. What will a well-programmed robot do when facing an unusual situation?A. Keep a distance from possible dangers.B. Do enough testing before taking action.C. Set off its built-in alarm system at once.D. Stop to seek advice from a human being.7. What is most difficult to do when we turn human values into a programmable code?A. Determine what is moral and ethical.B. Design some large-scale experiments.C. Set rules for man-machine interaction.D. Develop a more sophisticated program.CIn summer the extreme heat often makes people sweaty and restless. While people are annoyed by it, experts suggest summer is the best season to discharge (排放) your body’s toxins (毒素) and recover your energy.One popular option is hot-stone massage (按摩). Therapists use smooth and heated stones, usually river rocks, to massage certain parts of the body, or place them on key points of the body. The warmth of the hot stones will improve blood circulation and also help relax muscles, while sweating is also believed to be good for discharging the body’s toxins.Another popular option is hot-stone baths. The hot-stone bath will help the body discharge toxins and humidity that accumulated during the last winter. Summer is the best season to build a good body. Rather than use water or steam to heat and wash the body, people simply wear a coat or something comfortable, and then lie on heated stone tablets made of hot stones, which are warmed to around 45oC. The body will gradually warm up and blood circulation will also be improved. More sweat will come out quickly. The sweat is smooth and fresh, not smelly like that released after sports activities. Such baths bring a number of health benefits, such as anti-aging, improved blood circulation and stress relief. The slimming effect of dieting can even be promoted.Using hot stones for healing dates back to ancient times, but the modern renewal of hot-stone massage is generally credited to Mary Nelson, a native of Tuc son, Arizona, America, whose trademark is “LaStone Therapy”.The therapy is gaining wide popularity with many people, especially those who have jobs in cool air-conditioned rooms. The hot-stone therapy can help cure many diseases, including back pain.8. What do people use to release toxins in our body according to the text?A. Washing the body with cold water.B. Discharging lots of sweat.C. Relaxing musclesD. Lying on the warm beds.9. What can we know from the text?A. Sports have greater effects on the health than hot-stone massage.B. There are no toxins and humidity in the body in summer.C. Using water of about 45oC to wash the body is good for the health.D. People should take advantage of summer to improve their health.10. What can be learned about the hot-stone therapy?A. It was invented by Mary Nelson, an American.B. It successfully cured many people of cancer.C. It is popular with people with its excellent effects.D. It can help people avoid sweating too much in hot summer.11. Which of the following could be the best title for the text?A. The origin and development of the hot-stone therapyB. The amazing functions of the hot-stone therapyC. A healthy and comfortable lifestyleD. How to live comfortably in summerDEvery year billions of pounds are spent on hair loss treatment. If we succeed in curing hair loss with 3D printed hair follicles (毛囊), it will be a huge revolution.L’Oreal ( 欧莱雅）, the cosmetics firm is partnering with a French bio-printing company called Poietis, which has developed a form of laser printing for cell-based objects. Poietis’ technique begins with the creation of a digital map that determines where living cells and other tissue components should be placed to create the desired biological structure. This involves how the cells are expected to grow over time. The file based on the digital map is then turned into instructions for the printing equipment, so that it can lay down tiny droplets （小滴）made out of the cell-based "bio ink" one layer at a time. The printing process involves bouncing （使反弹）a pulsing laser （脉冲激光器） off a mirror and through a lens, so that when it hits a ribbon (色带) containing the bio ink, a droplet of the matter falls into place. About 10,000 of these micro-droplets are created every second.It typically takes about 10 minutes to print a piece of skin 1cm wide by 0.5mm thick. However, since hair follicles are complex and consist of 15 different cells in a structure, they may take longer.Poietis is not the only company working on bio-printing, but most othersuse another way, which involves pushing a bio-ink through a nozzle (喷嘴), rather than lasers to build their tissue. Poietis suggests its technique putsless stress on the biological matter, meaning there is less risk of causingit damage.Alopecia UK—a charity that provides support and advice about hair loss—has mixed feelings about the development. “It is encouraging to knowthat companies such as L’Oreal are investing in technology that may help thosewith hair loss in the future,” said spokeswoman Amy Johnson.“However, we would suggest it’s still very early to be getting excitedabout what this potentially could mean for those with medical hair loss. Atthis point it is unclear as to whether this technology could benefit those withall types of hair loss.”“Also, if this new technology does lead to a treatment option, given thehigh costs of existing hair transplant procedures, how many people will be ableto realistically afford any new technological advances that may become available? As with any other research and development into processes that maybe able to help those with hair loss, we watch with great interest.”12. What does Paragraph 2 mainly tell us?A. How the printing process is carried out.B. Where the living cells should be placed.C. How long the cells are expected to grow.D. What the printing equipment is made up of.13. What does the underlined word “it” in Paragraph 4 refer to?A. hair follicleB. biological matterC. nozzleD. bio-ink14. The passage implies that the new technology may ______.A. meet some practical challengesB. help people with hair loss at presentC. offer solutions to all problems of hair lossD. cost a large sum of money to transplant hair15. What is Amy Johnson’s attitude towards the new technology?A. Disapproving.B. Optimistic.C. Cautious.D. Negative. 第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

Mountain views.2BEarly February, I was flying up to Ohio. Well prepared, I had everything in my favour—fuel for five hours, charts in order, my flight plan on my lap, and a beautiful clear sky. I was wrong.I had heard about Alberta Clippers (阿尔伯特风剪）coming out of Canada. I knew all about them―how an entire air mass was streaming along at over sixty miles an hour.That morning, the Weather Briefer informed me that an Alberta Clipper was going over Chicago about the time I got to the airport. Chicago was some 400 miles from my destination—not a factor, or so I thought. That was the first hint (暗示）I missed.The controller called and asked if I wanted to adjust my flight plan. I did the check and everything was in the green. So I told him no. Twenty minutes later the controller called again asking whether I wanted to adjust my flight plan. I checked everything. All was fine. I ignored that hint. I was fooled by the smooth air and limited experience with a rapidly moving air mass that was not changing violently. The Alberta Clipper was clipping along.The first blast of turbulence（气流）struck my plane. I got slammed into the roof, and then slammed sideways hitting the window with such force up my nose that I started bleeding.After a 2-hour flight of 100 miles, I realized fuel was now an issue. So was landing. I called Flight Following. We figured out the airport I could land.The engine stopped. So did my heart. There is no quiet as quietly stunning as this one at such an altitude. I had run out of fuel in the left tank, and only a little in my right tank. The engine quit for a second time. I declared an emergency. I was told that I might get another few minutes of fuel if I gently banked the airplane. Luckily, it worked. Then, the engine quit for the last time. I was a glider now. I made a long lazy spiral descent. Down I went. I stopped at the very end of the runway.I made so many mistakes, missed so many clues, and showed my ignorance so much that I3.beat myself up over and over again in my mind. I learned textbook descriptions of Alberta Clippers and real-life experience with one are totally different. I will never forget the sound of that silence.I flew home the next day Older. Wiser. Humbler. Lucky.4. We can know from the passage that Alberta Clippers ______.A. can bring snowstormsB. can lead to a sudden temperature dropC. are violently changing air pressureD. are quick-moving air masses5. What mainly led to the author's missing all the hints?A. His lack of flying experience.B. His misjudgement about the air mass.C. His poor preparation for the journey.D. His overconfidence in his piloting skills.6. Which is the right order of the events?a. I declared an emergency.b. My airplane was running out of fuel.c. I insisted on carrying on my flight plan.d. I was thrown to the roof by the violent air mass.e. I slightly banked my airplane and made a landing.A. d-c-b-e-aB. d-c-e-b-aC. c-d-b-a-eD. c-d-a-b-e7. The passage describes ______.4A. a rewarding trainingB. a narrow escapeC. a painful explorationD. a serious accidentCLiving with your parents has its benefits at least when it comes to raising your kids― their grandkids. Two new studies add to the evidence that grandmothers can enhance the survival of grandchildren. That is, unless grandma's too old or lives too far away.Humans are unusual in that the females live long past the age at which they stop having babies. Patrick Bergeron, professor of biology at Bishop's University in Quebec, said that most of the organisms will reproduce up to their very last moment. This increase is often explained by the so-called “grandmother effect”. He thinks there c ould still be a benefit for women who stop having babies to increase their genetic footprint by helping their daughters to raise larger families.To explore the “grandmother effect” hypothesis(假设)，Bergeron and his colleagues examined nearly 200 years' worth of French-Canadian population records from the 17th and 18th centuries. “At the time, life was tough. In some years, a third of the kids were not even making it to one year of age.” But the researchers found that having a grandmother still alive was a de finite plus. “Families with grandmothers alive were larger by about two and the survival of these grandchildren to age 15 was much improved.”This beneficial effect was only seen when the matriarchs(女家长) lived nearby. That role is tougher for them to fulfill as they get older in poor health, which brings us to the second study. The researchers found that the benefits associated with having a grandmother on hand depended on her age. Once grandmothers hit 75, the grandchild survival benefit disappeared. This was almost certainly due to some form of indirect resource competition, though, rather than wickedness(邪恶) on the part of co- resident grandmothers.So, a healthy grandma helps make for a healthy grandchild. If ‘over the river and5through the woods to gran dmother's house’ isn't too long a trip.8. What's the second paragraph mainly about?A. Differences between animals and human beings.B. Disadvantages of living with grandmasC. What's called “grandmother effect”.D. Grandmothers' influence on the kids.9. How does the writer describe about the French-Canadian population over 300 years ago?A. By voicing opinions.B. By providing facts.C. By giving examples.D. By telling stories.10. What can we infer from the second study?A. Society should be concerned about the old women.B. Grandmothers over 75 years old are unwilling to help.C. Some grandmothers may occupy kids' relative resources.D. Some grandmothers are getting wicked after they are old.11. Which of the following can be the most helpful grandmother according to the passage?A. A healthy one living nearby.B. A healthy one living abroad.C. An old one living in a nursing home.D. A knowledgeable one living together.DForget about the “post-1995 generation”. Young people born in 1995 or later have another name in English — Generation Z. They are entering adulthood and will soon shape6our future, which is why policy makers, as well as employers and marketers, are trying their best to understand these young people. So, how should we pin down the Gen Z-ers?Most people will agree that the single biggest difference between Gen-Z and other generations is how connected they are. This is a group of people who were hooked up to social media as soon as they were born. Social media has changed the way Gen Z-ers interact with each other and how they get and process information. They read news from Twitter, watch videos from Vine, share experiences in Instagram and post recipes in Pinterest.“We are the first true digital natives. I can almost simultaneously create a document, edit it, post a photo on Instagram and talk on the phone, all from the user-friendly iPhone,” said Hannah Payne, an 18-year-old UCLA student.It is noted that young people in the UK are becoming more active in Politics. Young people regard voting as one option among many to show their political engagement that can potentially influence policies. Instead of party politics, they focus more on single-topic issues such as feminism(女权主义) or climate change. And “much of the engagement and organizing they do takes place on social media rather than through traditional political structures,” according to the Guardians.Gen Z-ers are also culture creators. Growing up with the Internet has freed this generation from traditional cultural expression. They are no longer willing to let their creativity be limited by their parents or traditional rules. “We decide what kind of content we want to experience and choose how we experience it,” wrote Masback, a Huffington Post blogger and a Gen Z-er herself.12. What does the underlined phrase “pin down” mean in Paragraph 1?A. Cooperate with.B. Firmly convince.C. Communicate with.D. Clearly understand.13. What is special about the Gen Z-ers’ engagement in politics?A. It has an immediate effect.B. It stresses social response.C. It’s party-based.D. It’s topic-specific.14. What can be inferred about the Gen Z-ers?A. They are socially responsible.7B. They are friendly and generous.C. They are addicted to social media.D. They are rooted in traditional culture.15. What is the author’s attitude towards Gen Z-ers?A. Worried.B. Objective.C. Ambiguous.D. Disapproving.第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，共10分）根据短文内容，从短文后的七个选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

What can we infer about Delaware from the text?A. It is the city of music.B. It is a city of high expense.C. It is the home of Bob Dylan.D. It is not a summer destination.23. What is the purpose of Icelanders to hold the Secret Solstice festival?A. To welcome summer.B. To memorize the past winter.C. To celebrate the coming of spring.D. To advise the local beautiful landscapes.BLet me tell you about my relationship with the school desk.From my first day at Penny Camp Elementary School in 1982,it was terrible.This is how it went down: five seconds into class, the foot start bouncing;10 seconds in, both feet; 15 seconds,I burst out the drums ! After a few minutes,it’s all over. I’m trying to put my leg behind my neck.No,that desk and I didn’t get along.Sitting still was hard enough,but I also struggled with reading.Reading out loud in class was a special kind of hell(地狱).By the third grade I had progressed from being one of “those kids” to being the “special kid”. I was found to have multiple language-based learning disabilities and attention deficit disorder (A.D.D) (注意力缺陷障碍症). I was turned into a “patient” who needed treatment rather than a human being with differences.I struggled with severe anxiety and depression at age 10.I survived this time in my life because of my mom. She knew in her heart that her c hild wasn’t broken and didn’t need to be fixed.My mom was right. When I think back on my school experience.I realize it wasn’t the A.D.D. that disabled me. What disabled me were limitations not in myself but in the environment. I’ve come to believe that I did not have a disability, as it is common to say, but experienced disability in environments that could not accommodate and accept my differences.In the fall of 1977,after two years at Loyola Marymount University,where my learning differences were fully accommodated, I transferred to(转学)Brown University, where I graduated with an honors degree in English literature. I still can’t spell or sit still,but I now use support and technology to relieve my weakness and build a life on my strengths. I don’t feel s tupid anymore and I know that I—and others like me—can live good lives despite these challenges.24．What does the author want to tell us in the first paragraph?A. He didn’t like to study.B. He used to be active at school.C. He suffered from a broken desk.D. He had trouble sitting still in class.25．How did the author probably feel in class in his early school years?A.Exited.B.Uneasy.C.Interested.D.Bored.26．Which of the following is correct according to the last paragraph?A. He is living a good life with his weakness.B. His disability has been cured by technology.C. He got his honors degree in English literature in the fall of 1997.D. He was transferred to Brown University because of his disability.27．From the passage we learn that__________.A. a disability is nothing but a differenceB. family’s support is the most importantC. disabled people can’t live well however hard they workD. sometimes limitations of the environment disable a personCRow after row they marched — thousands of larger-than-life figures frozen in clay, a phalanx(方阵) of officials defend ing the tomb of China’s first emperor.Silently they guarded beneath the soil for 2,200 years, until a farmer digging a well in 1974 found broken pieces of unparalleled significance near China’s early capital city, Xianyang.Now those fierce warriors have reached the Virginia Museum of Fine Arts(VMFA) to tell their extraordinary story. The exhibition will be on display at VMFA from Saturday, November 18, 2017 through March 11, 2018 before traveling to the Cincinnati Art Museum.Ten of the clay figures will stand with a total of 130 objects from 14 museums and archaeological institutes in China’s Shaanxi Province, where the current city of Xi’an is located. Forty of the objects have never le ft China before. Beyond the life-size clayfigures, the exhibit brings perspective with objects that range from bronze spearheads found in the emperor’s tomb to a small gold tiger that pre-dated him by more than 250 years.The fascination draws lots of visitors wherever the terracotta figures have traveled. The National Geographic Museum in Washington had a record-setting 280,000 people at its four-month exhibit of 15 figures in 2009—2010. Chicago’s Field Museum attracted 460,000 to its 10-month exhibit that ended in January.At the same time with the VMFA exhibit, Philadelphia’s Franklin Institute will have a terracotta warriors exhibit that focuses on the science and technology that went into their creation. VMFA focuses on why they were created and how they fit into China’s long sweep of history. Each institution has 10 life-size terracotta figures on display, giving an unprecedented(空前的) opportunity to study them in depth.The VMFA exhibition is divided into three sections. The first one introduces the emperor; the second puts him in context with artifacts from the warring states; the third shows his journey into the afterlife.28. According to Paragraph 2, some of the items on display .A. have not gone abroadB. have just been discoveredC. are from museums all over ChinaD. were earlier than China’s first emperor29. How many American cities will hold the exhibition of terracotta warriors?A. 2.B. 3.C. 4.D. 5.30. How do Americans think of terracotta warriors?A. Attractive.B. Aggressive.C. Professional.D. Conservative.31. What is the best title for the text?A.Terracotta Warriors of ChinaB.The Exhibit of China’s First EmperorC.Terracotta Warriors Exhibits in the USD. New Discoveries in Terracotta WarriorsDGenealogy, also known as family history, is the study of families and the footmarks of their lineages(家系) and history. Genealogists use oral interviews, historical records, genetic analysis, and other records to obtain information about a family and to prove kinship(亲属关系) and lineages of its members. The results are often displayed in charts or written as descriptions.The pursuit of family history and origins tends to be shaped by several impetuses, including the desireto carve out a place for one’s family in the larger historical picture, a sense of responsibility to preserve the past for future generations, and a sense of self-satisfaction in accurate storytelling.In communitarian societies, one’s identity is established as much by one’s kin network as by individual achievement, and the question ＂Who are you?＂would be answered by a description of father, mother, and lineages. New Zealand Māori, for example, learn genealogies to discover who they are.In societies such as Australia or the United States, there was by the 20th-century growing pride in the pioneers and nation-builders. Establishing descent(继承) from these was, and is, important to such groups as the Daughters of the American Revolution(DAR).Modern family history explores new sources of status, such as celebrating the rebirth of families that survived generations of poverty or slavery, or the success of families in combining across racial or national boundaries. Some family histories even emphasize links to celebrity criminals, such as the bushranger(绿林好汉) Ned Kelly in Australia.The growing interest in family history in the media coupled with easier access to online records has allowed those who are curious to do so to start investigating their ancestry. This curiosity can be particularly strong among those whose family histories were lost or unknown due to, for example, adoption or separation from family, perhaps as a result of bereavement(丧失).32. Which of the following is connected with genealogy?A. The DNA tests.B. Historicalnovels.C. Political positions.D. Education standards.33. What is the meaning of the underlined word ＂impetuses＂in Paragraph 2?A. Results.B. Drives.C. Categories.D. Exploitations.34. Why do Māori study genealogies?A. To get achievements.B. To learn their origins.C. To change their identities.D. To create their kin network.35. What do we know about genealogy from Paragraph 4?A. DAR is a genealogy organization.B. Organizations have their genealogy.C. Australia is a pioneer in genealogy.D. Genealogy inspires the love for nation.第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

October8BAs Artificial Intelligence becomes increasingly complicated, 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.For 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 the kind of thing a properly brought-up person would do.It will be possible to create more complex 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 do enough 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 has the 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.4.What does the author say about the threat of robots?A. It may be a challenge to computer programmers.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 danger as technology gets more sophisticated.5. How do robots learn human values?A. By interacting with humans in everyday life situations.B. By picking up patterns from massive data on human behavior.C. By following the daily routines of civilized human beings.D. By imitating the behavior of properly brought-up human beings.6. What will a well-programmed robot do when facing an unusual situation?A. Keep a distance from possible dangers.B. Do enough testing before taking action.C. Set off its built-in alarm system at once.D. Stop to seek advice from a human being.7. What is most difficult to do when we turn human values into a programmable code?A. Determine what is moral and ethical.B. Design some large-scale experiments.C. Set rules for man-machine interaction.D. Develop a more sophisticated program.CIn summer the extreme heat often makes people sweaty and restless. While people are annoyed by it, experts suggest summer is the best season to discharge (排放) your body’s toxins (毒素) and recover your energy.One popular option is hot-stone massage (按摩). Therapists use smooth and heated stones, usually river rocks, to massage certain parts of the body, or place them on key points of the body. The warmth of the hot stones will improve blood circulation and also help relax muscles, while sweating is also believed to be good for discharging the body’s toxins.Another popular option is hot-stone baths. The hot-stone bath will help the body discharge toxins and humidity that accumulated during the last winter. Summer is the best season to build a good body. Rather than use water or steam to heat and wash the body, people simply wear a coat or something comfortable, and then lie on heated stone tablets made of hot stones, which are warmed to around 45oC. The body will gradually warm up and blood circulation will also be improved. More sweat will come out quickly. The sweat is smooth and fresh, not smelly like that released after sports activities. Such baths bring a number of health benefits, such as anti-aging, improved blood circulation and stress relief. The slimming effect of dieting can even be promoted.Using hot stones for healing dates back to ancient times, but the modern renewal of hot-stone massage is generally credited to Mary Nelson, a native of Tucson, Arizona, America, whose trademark is “LaStone Therapy”.The therapy is gaining wide popularity with many people, especially those who have jobs in cool air-conditioned rooms. The hot-stone therapy can help cure many diseases, including back pain.8. What do people use to release toxins in our body according to the text?A. Washing the body with cold water.B. Discharging lots of sweat.C. Relaxing musclesD. Lying on the warm beds.9. What can we know from the text?A. Sports have greater effects on the health than hot-stone massage.B. There are no toxins and humidity in the body in summer.C. Using water of about 45oC to wash the body is good for the health.D. People should take advantage of summer to improve their health.10. What can be learned about the hot-stone therapy?A. It was invented by Mary Nelson, an American.B. It successfully cured many people of cancer.C. It is popular with people with its excellent effects.D. It can help people avoid sweating too much in hot summer.11. Which of the following could be the best title for the text?A. The origin and development of the hot-stone therapyB. The amazing functions of the hot-stone therapyC. A healthy and comfortable lifestyleD. How to live comfortably in summerDEvery year billions of pounds are spent on hair loss treatment. If we succeed in curing hair loss with 3D printed hair follicles (毛囊), it will be a huge revolution.L’Oreal ( 欧莱雅）, the cosmetics firm is partnering with a French bio-printing company called Poietis, which has developed a form of laser printing for cell-based objects. Poietis’ technique begins with the creation of a digital map that determines where living cells and other tissue components should be placed to create the desired biological structure. This involves how the cells are expected to grow over time. The file based on the digital map is then turned into instructions for the printing equipment, so that it can lay down tiny droplets （小滴）made out of the cell-based "bio ink" one layer at a time. The printing process involves bouncing （使反弹）a pulsing laser（脉冲激光器）off a mirror and through a lens, so that when it hits a ribbon (色带) containing the bio ink, a droplet of the matter falls into place. About 10,000 of these micro-droplets are created every second.It typically takes about 10 minutes to print a piece of skin 1cm wide by 0.5mm thick. However, since hair follicles are complex and consist of 15 different cells in a structure, they may take longer.Poietis is not the only company working on bio-printing, but most others use another way, which involves pushing a bio-ink through a nozzle (喷嘴), rather than lasers to build theirtissue. Poietis suggests its technique puts less stress on the biological matter, meaning there is less risk of causing it damage.Alopecia UK—a charity that provides support and advice about hair loss—has mixed feelings about the development. “It is encouraging to know that companies such as L’Oreal are investing in technology that may help those with hair loss in the future,” said spokeswoman Amy Johnson.“However, we would suggest it’s still very early to be getting excited about what this potentially could mean for those with medical hair loss. At this point it is unclear as to whether this technology could benefit those with all types of hair loss.”“Also, if this new technology does lead to a treatment option, given the high costs of existing hair transplant procedures, how many people will be able to realistically afford any new technological advances that may become available? As with any other research and development into processes that may be able to help those with hair loss, we watch with great interest.”12. What does Paragraph 2 mainly tell us?A. How the printing process is carried out.B. Where the living cells should be placed.C. How long the cells are expected to grow.D. What the printing equipment is made up of.13. What does the underlined word “it” in Paragraph 4 refer to?A. hair follicleB. biological matterC. nozzleD. bio-ink14. The passage implies that the new technology may ______.A. meet some practical challengesB. help people with hair loss at presentC. offer solutions to all problems of hair lossD. cost a large sum of money to transplant hair15. What is Amy Johnson’s attitude towards the new technology?A. Disapproving.B. Optimistic.C. Cautious.D. Negative.第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

It has some of the most beautiful natural scenery on the planet, with the Great Barrier Reef, rainforests and impressive beaches.The Great Barrier ReefIt is one of the world’s largest natural features. It stretches more tha n 2,300 km along the north eastern coast of Australia from the northern tip of Queensland to just north of Bundaberg. The things that most surprise visitors to the reef are the colors.Without doubt, the best way to see the Great Barrier Reef is by diving. If you have a little extra money and you are feeling a bit lazy, you can fly over the reef in a plane.Fraser IslandAnother area of natural beauty is Fraser Island. This is the world’s largest sand island. It’s best visited from Hervey Bay on the mainland, where there are a number of places offering trips around the island. To fully appreciate Fraser Island you should go for three or four days. Attractions include some beautiful fresh-water lakes, particularly Lake Wabby and Lake Mckenzie. You can walk around these on white sands untouched by human footprints. Indian Head also has some beautiful views. Braver travelers can go and watch sharks circling the water hundreds of meters below. The Whitsunday IslandsIt would be a pity to travel around Queensland without taking a trip around the Whitsunday Islands. They were named by Captain Cook in 1770, after the day on which he arrived. Here are some of the great things you can do there.●Cruise around them on a relaxing trip.●Take a sailing course.●Look at the aboriginal (土著的) paintings in caves on Hook Island.●Have fun in the water doing lots of water sports.So, will you be going to Queensland?1. The best way to admire the beauty of the Great Barrier Reefis .A. drivingB. taking aboatC. flying in a planeD. diving in the sea2. What can we infer from Fraser Island?A. Lake Wabby and Lake Mckenzie are rarely visited places.B. Only brave ones can watch sharks in the deep ocean.C. Few places on the mainland can offer trips around the island.D. One should have at least 2 days to fully explore Fraser Island.3. The purpose of writing this passage is . .A. to call on people to protect QueenslandB. to informthe latest newsC. to advertise for QueenslandD. to break a worldrecordBWe all think plants were expected to get larger with increased carbon dioxide in the atmosphere, but changes in temperature, humidity(湿度）and nutrient availability seem to have trumped the benefits of increased carbon dioxide” said researchers from the National University of Singapore.45 percent of the species studied now reach smaller adult sizes than they did in the past. The researchers pointed out that warmer temperatures and changing habitats, caused by climate change, are possible reasons for shrinking creatures.“ We do not yet know the mechanisms(机制）involved, or why some organism are getting smaller while others are unaffected,” the researchers said. “Until we understand more, we could be risking negative consequences that we can’t yet quantify. ’’The change is big in cold-blooded animals. Only two decades of warmer temperatures are enough to make retiles (爬行动物）smaller. An increase of only 1 degree centigrade caused nearly a 10 percent increase in metabolism(新陈代谢). Greater use of energy resulted in tiny tortoises and little lizards. Fish are smaller now too. Though overfishing has played a part in reducing numbers, experiments show that warmer temperatures also stop fish growing.Warm-blooded animals aren’t immune(免除）from the size change caused by climate change. Many birds are now smaller. Soay sheep are thinner. Red deer are weaken And polar bears are smaller, compared with historical records.This is not the first time this has happened in Earth’s history. 55 million years ago, a warming event similar to the current climate change caused bees, spiders and ants to shrink by 50 to 75 percent over several thousand years. That event happened over a longer time than the current climate change.The speed of modem climate change could mean organisms may not respond or adapt quickly enough, especially those with long generation times climate change will be shown in the future.4. What does the text mainly talk about______A. Why some species become smaller.B. How climate changes in Earth’s history?C. Climate change has many negative effects.D. Species are becoming smaller as climate gets warmer.5. The underlined word “trumped” in the first paragraph probably mean .A. strengthenedB. gainedC. beatD. equaled6. Researchers from the National University of Singapore believe thatA. they have found the exact causes for creatures getting smaller.B. all the animals on the earth have become smaller.C. climate change has more negative effects on warm-blooded animals.D. increase in energy use can lead to creatures getting smaller.7. What does the author feel about the climate change?A. DisappointedB. OptimisticC. WorriedD. ShamefulCIf Confucius(孔子) were still alive today and could celebrate his September 28 birthday with a big cake, there would be a lot of candles. He’d need a fan or a strong wind to help him put them out.While many people in China will remember Confucius on his special day, few people in the United States will give him a passing thought. It’s nothing personal. Most Americans don’t even remember the birthdays of their own national heroes.But this doesn’t mean that Americans don’t care about Confucius. In many ways he has become a bridge that foreigners must cross if they want to reach a deeper understanding of China.In the past two decades, the Chinese studies programs have gained huge popularity in Western universities. More recently, the Chinese government has set up Confucius Institutes in more than 80 countries. These schools teach both Chinese language and culture. The main courses of Chinese culture usually include Chinese art, history and philosophy(哲学). Some social scientists suggest that Westerners should take advantage of the ancient Chinese wisdom to make up for the drawbacks(缺点) of Western philosophy. Students in the United States, at the same time, are racing to learn Chinese. So they will be ready for life in a world where China is an equal power with the United States. Businessmen who hope to make money in China are reading books about Confucius to understand their Chinese customers.So the old thinker’s ideas are still alive and well.Today China attracts the West more than ever, and it will need more teachers to introduce Confucius and Chinese culture to the West.As for the old thinker, he will not soon be forgotten by people in the West, even if his birthday is.8. The opening paragraph is mainly intended to ________.A. provide some key facts about ConfuciusB. attract the readers’ interest in the subjectC. show great respect for the ancient thinkerD. prove the popularity of modern birthday celebrations9. We can learn from Paragraph 4 that American students ________.A. have a great interest in studying ChineseB. take an active part in Chinese competitionsC. try to get high scores in Chinese examsD. fight for a chance to learn Chinese10. What is the best title for the passage?A. Forgotten Wisdom in AmericaB. Huge Fans of theChinese LanguageC. Old Thinker with a Big FutureD. Chinese Culture forWesterners11. The passage is likely to appear in ________.A. a newspaperB. a history paperC. a biographyD. a philosophy textbookDThe discussion on renewable energy has been going on for at least a decade and people have relied on fossil fuels almost entirely for more than a century. However, the situation when fossil fuels were the most efficient and the cheapest source of energy has been left far in the past. Many countries such as Germany and Sweden have already made significant efforts to fix this situation, employing numerous power plants working on the renewable resources of energy. The most effective among these resources is geothermal（地热的）energy.Geothermal energy does not depend on the world’s economic and political situation as strongly as fossil fuels do. Besides, extracting（提炼）fossil fuels adds to the price of energy produced from them. Therefore, geothermal energy is much cheaper than traditional ones, saving up to 80% of the costs over fossil fuels.Being a renewable resource, geothermal energy produces less waste and pollution than traditional energy sources. In geothermal systems, carbon dioxide makes up about 10% of air produced. Overall, in order to produce the electricity that can be used for one hour, the geothermal systems produce 0.1 pound of carbon dioxide and other harmful gases. For a comparison, a power plant producing from gas produces up to 2 pounds of carbon dioxide into the atmosphere, and those power plants that work on coal（煤）produce an astonishing 3.6 pounds of greenhouse gases.Low costs is another reason why using geothermal power plants should be the first choice for many countries. Geothermal heat systems require 25% to 50% less energy for work compared with the traditional systems for heating or cooling. Besides, geothermal equipment is less big: due to the very nature of geothermal energy, geothermal power plants have only a few moving parts, all of which can be easily sheltered inside a relatively small building. What’s more, the life span of geothermal equipment is rather long. All these make geothermal power stations easy to build and keep.12. Fossil fuels are more expensive than geothermal energy partly because ______.A. it is free to use geothermal energyB. the production of fossil fuels costs a lotC. fossil fuels are nearly used upD. geothermal energy doesn’t depend on political situation13. According to Paragraph 3, what can be concluded from the comparison?A. Geothermal energy is environmentally friendly.B. Gas and coal are often used to produce electricity.C. Coal is much more efficient than gas.D. The geothermal systems don’t produce harmful gases.14. Geothermal equipment is usually not as big as that of traditional energy becauseof_____.A. the life span of geothermal equipmentB. geothermal power plantsC. the nature of geothermal energyD. the small buildings15. What is the main idea of this passage?A. Many countries have benefited from geothermal energy.B. Geothermal energy is well accepted.C. Fossil fuels are being run out of.D. Geothermal energy has many advantages.第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，共10分）根据短文内容，从短文后的七个选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

Trees are useful to man in three very important ways：they provide him wood and other products；they give him shade；and they help to prevent drought(干旱)and floods．Unfortunately，in many parts of the world，man has not realized that the third of these services is the most important．In his eagerness to draw quick profit from the trees，he has cut them down in large numbers.Two thousand years ago，a rich and powerful country cut down its trees to build warships，with which to gain itself an empire. It gained the empire but，without its trees，its soil became bare and poor．When the empire fell to pieces，the country found itself faced by floods and starvation．Even where a government realizes the importance of a plentiful supply of trees，it is difficult sometimes to make the people realize this．They cut down the trees but are too careless to plant and look after new trees. So，unless the government has a good system of control，or can educate the people，the forests slowly disappear.This does not only mean that there will be fewer trees．The results are even more serious：for where there are trees，their roots break the soil up，allowing the rain to sink in，and also bind the soil．This prevents the soil from beingwashed away．But where there are no trees，the rain falls on hard ground and flows away on the surface，and this causes floods and the rain carries away the rich topsoil in which crops grow When a11 the topsoil is gone, nothing remains but worthless desert．1．Trees are useful to man mainly in three ways，the most important of which is that they can _ ___ A．keep him from the hot sunshineB．enable him to build warshipsC．make him draw quick profit from themD．protect him from droughts and floods2．It’s a great pity that __ __A．man is only interested in building empiresB．man is eager to profit from treesC．man hasn’t realized the importance of trees to himD．man hasn’t found out that he has lost all trees3．Sooner or later the forests will disappear ___ ___．A．unless a country has a plenty supply of treesB．unless people stop cutting down their treesC．unless all people are taught the importance of planting treesD．unless the government punishes those who cut trees instead of planting them 4．The word“bind”in Paragraph 5 means“___ __”A．to wash away B．to make wetC．to make stay together D．to improve5．When there is a heavy rain，trees can help to prevent floods，as theycan .A．keep rain from falling down to soft groundB．cause the soil to allow rainwater to sink inC．prevent the soil from being washed awayD．make the topsoil stick together第二节七选五（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

AIt was May 23, 2016. Arnot, the 32-year-old mountain guide, reached the top of Everest without the use of oxygen (O2) equipment. It was achieved after seven years, three previous attempts, and fourteen straight hours of climbing.After 15 minutes at the top, Arnot began her descent (下坡). Eight hours later, she reached the camp at 7, 600 meters and became the first American woman—and only the seventh woman ever—to successfully reach Mount Everest without oxygen equipment.Arnot didn’t start climbing until she was 19 years old. Money was tight in her family, and climbing mountains never occurred in her mind. After graduating from college, Arnot was invited by her friend to cl imb a mountain. “It totally changed my life”, says Arnot. “I always know that if you want something, you can achieve it, but knowing what you want is a whole different thing,” she says. “I am athletic but not competitive. After my first climbing, I knew immediately that mountains are what I want—as that is where I felt home for the first time in my life.”After that first climb, she devoted herself to learning how to climb and move through mountain. It was during her second trip to Everest in 2009 that she first set her sights on a no-oxygen attempt. However, while hiking into Everest Base Camp that year, she hurt her leg and wasn’t able to climb without oxygen. In 2013 she nearly made it to the top, but was forced to take oxygen at 8,504 meters while helping another climber.31. On May 23, 2016. Arnot ________.A. spent 8 straight hours climbingB. stayed at the top for 50 minutesC. made her first attempt to climb EverestD. reached the top without oxygen equipment32. Arnot fell in love with climbing because _________.A. money was no longer a problem to herB. mountains gave her the feeling of comfortC. she tried to be more athletic and competitiveD. she wanted to build up her body through climbing33. What do we know about Arnot’s climbing experience?A. She took up climbing when she was 19 years old.B. She has always been a good climber since her childhood.C. She climbed Everest with her family during her first trip.D. She hurt her leg badly while helping another climber in 2009.34. Which of the following can best describe Arnot?A. Determined and brave.B. Cautious and honest.C. Caring and open-minded.D. Confident and creative.BIf you’re a cycling lover, you will have to pay a lot of attention to your bicycle and maintain it well, for bicycle parts are exposed to wear and tear (磨损) over time and you have to examine the bicycle to see if there are any signs of wearing such as scratches, dents (凹陷) etc. Sometimes, a part may not work because it has exceeded its life expectancy. Sometimes, you will need to find replacement parts for it to keep up the performance of the bicycle.Different parts of a bicycle will wear at different rates so it is very important that you have a basic understanding about the role played by each part. One of the most important parts of the bicycle is the frame. You will need to choose a frame that lasts for a very long time. Of course, you will see some paint scratches after some time. When you’re selecting a frame, you have to think about the material. Aluminium (铝) frames will not rust easily, but they have a higher chance to dent. Steel frames will be hard to dent, but you will need to make sure they get a good paint job so that they won’t rust.Other parts that you can buy used are seats, handlebars and the stem. When you are buying handlebars, you have to see if there are any dents or if they have been bent out of shape. There shouldn’t be any cracks in the seat post or the handlebars. There are many shops where you can buy parts, so you will have to check the references to see how customers respond to them before you buy anything.35. According to the passage, cycling lovers should ________.A. buy a new bicycle to keep up the performanceB. replace the bicycle parts with signs of wearingC. choose Aluminum frames rather than steel onesD. learn how each part of the bicycle basically works36. Which parts may be replaced by the used ones?A. Wheels and chains.B. Tyres and seats.C. Handlebars and stems.D. Frames and pedals.37.

It’s a company that provides non-medical at-home care for seniors in the northern Virginia area.But when Hollie, one of SenCura’s professi onal caregivers, is not around, Robertson still has a caregiver, a robot named Rudy. “You can have a conversation with him. And (he’s) somebody to talk to and who responds.” Rudy also tells jokes and plays games and dances with Robertson. In addition to keeping Robertson mentally and physically active, Rudy provides contact with emergency services 24 hours a day automatically when Robertson is in danger. He watches for lost items, reminds Robertson about her doctor’s appointments and tells her when it is ti me to take her medicine.Anthony Nunez is the founder of INF Robotics, the company that created Rudy. He says, “As I grew older, I realized we weren’t the only family facing this problem. There are thousands of families facing the same issue --- most cases even worse, where they have a beloved one that they’re taking care of and the cost becomes an issue. So what we wanted to do was design a robot that’s easy to use, designed specifically for seniors, but also affordable."SenCura’s Cliff Glier says the rob ot Rudy adds to what in-home caregivers do for the growing population of seniors who prefer to age at home---with a little help from friends.
