2017年上海春考英语真题及答案
2017-2020年上海高考英语概要写作(Summary)
ShynessIf you suffer from shyness, you are not alone, for shyness is universal phenomenon. It is not surprising that social scientists are exploring its environmental causes. The first environmental cause of shyness may be a child’s home and family life. Today’s children are growing up in smaller and smaller families, with fewer and fewer relatives living nearby. Growing up in homes in which both parents work full time, children may not have the socializing experience of frequent visits by neighbors and friends. Because of their lack of social skills, they may begin to feel shy when they start school.A second environment cause of shyness in an individual may be one’s culture. In a large study conducted in Japan,57 percent of participants rated themselves as shy. Researchers Lynne Henderson and Philip Zimbardo say, “One explanation is that in Japan, an individual’s performance success is credited externally to parents, grandparents, teachers, coaches, and others, while failure is entirely blamed on the person.” Therefore, Japanese learn not to take risks in public and rely instead on group-shared decisions.Technology may also play a role. In the United States, the number of young people who report being shy has risen from 40 percent to 50 percent in recent years. Due to our huge advances in technology, watching television, playing video games, and surfing the Web have replaced recreational activities that involve social interaction for many young people. Adults, too, are becoming more isolated as a result of technology. Face-to-face interactions with bank clerks, gas station attendants, and shop assistants are no longer necessary because people can use machines to do their banking, fill their gas tanks, and order goods. In short, they become shy.It appears that most people have experienced shyness at some time in their lives. Therefore, if you are shy, you have lots of company.答案：Shyness is common and it has environmental causes, including home and family life, culture and technology. Firstly, with smaller families and working parents, children lack social interactions. Secondly, blaming failure on individuals causes people in some culture to be shy in public. Finally, with the development of technology, people have fewer opportunities to socialize in person. (56 words)Learning by Rote in the Digital AgeRote learning has become seen as an outdated method of teaching. The dictionary defines learning ‘ by rote’ as: ‘from memory, without thought of the meaning; in a mechanical way’.The decline of rote learning has been quickened by technology. No one needs to memorize friends phone numbers or email addresses because such data is conveniently stored and accessible electronically. And why remember when and where World War Two broke out when you can find the answer on the internet in about 6 seconds? But now there are voices for a need to return to rote learning.In fact, memorizing key data is essential to learning any skill. Doctoring requires knowledge of medicine and lawyering requires knowledge of cases and laws. Of course, being able to recall things will not further your understanding of those things, but without memorizing these foundation elements, you cannot progress to a deeper understanding of a subject.While the i nternet and computers have weakened the need for us to remember things, it may well be that mobile learning can help bring this style of learning back to life by making it more convenient and more fun.Drilling yourself ---with flashcards or by repetition--- is usually hard and boring work, which is why most people need their multiplication tables to be drilled into them by teachers or parents. Rote learning without a willing third party can be a battle of discipline and motivation. But mobile learning can make those flashcards and drills more appropriate to individual study; our digital devices can challenge and inform us at the same time and also keep us motivated, whether through game-like structures or recording our progress.Once you’ve acquired the essentials of a subject by rote learning, you will find it easier to go deeper in the application of knowledge which is important.答案：Rote learning means mechanical memorization. Although technology makes it less needed, its value is being rediscovered. Rote learning helps people acquire basic knowledge, laying a foundation for further understanding. In fact, technology makes mobile learning possible, which motivates learning in rote learning and makes memorization more interesting and individualized.To Laugh Is HumanMost of us don’t know why we laugh at some jokes and not at others. Scientists know that we are able to laugh at birth. Babies begin to laugh at three to four months of age, well before they produce their first words. What scientists are interested in is why we laugh.Scientists believe humans laugh with others primarily because it makes us feel connected with one another, which in turn gives us a sense of trust and comfort. To scientists, laughter is an unconscious reaction; consequently, when we laugh, others can be certain that it is an honest reaction, and honesty is key when building and maintaining friendships.Since laughter is seen as a social signal that we send to others, it can also help explain why it is so infectious. Studies have proven that when people see or hear something funny, they are 20 times more likely to laugh when they are with others than when they are alone. Wanting to be accepted by others is part of human nature. And mirroring other people’s laughte r is a way to signal to others that you feel the way they do, which makes us feel more connected with one another.Humans have not always laughed just so they can feel closer to others, however. Scientists point out that this social function of laughter was born out of an even more fundamental human need. Laughter, they believe, came about because it contributed to our very survival as a species. Scientists assume that sharing laughter ensured our ancestors a higher survival rate because it led to greater cooperation between individuals. Humans learned quickly that greater cooperation led to survival, and the brain in turn realized that laughing with others increased out chances of finding people to cooperate, hunt, eat, live, and eventually, survive with.答案：Scientists think humans are born with the ability to laugh, but why do we laugh? We laugh to feel closer to one another. Laughter helps us to be recognized so we laugh more in groups than when alone. Laughter also evolved from a more basic need to survive as it promoted cooperation, enabling humans to survive better. (59w) Laughter is unconscious, infectious and basic. It brings us a trustworthy, comfortable and honest feeling, thus better maintaining friendships. Chances are that we laugh more with others around, contributing to prompting recognition and feeling more connected with one another. Scientists assure that laughter resulted in greater cooperation between individuals in ancient times, as better cooperation leads to survival.

Thus, it's of vital importance for job seekers to carefully strategize their approach to job application. And it's especially important for those new to the work force. They should look at making themselves as attractive as possible to employers.For young people, information technology skills will play an increasing role in the future. As the generation to have grown up in the Information Age, they are quite confident when it comes to showing off their interests and skills in this field. This makes them a natural fit for companies seeking expertise(专业技能) in technology，marketing and networking. They should emphasize these skills when applying for jobs that require the ability to multitask.Another attractive quality is experience. It's important that an applicant’s resume list any activities that involved teamwork and goal-driven responsibilities. Membership in a sports or social club and participation as a volunteer are good examples of this. These activities involve goal management and planning along with the ability to focus while competing on a team. When hiring committees see this, they see a candidate who is capable of working in a variety of environments.Finally an attractive quality when job-hunting is a great attitude toward a potential job. Young job seekers are known to be overconfident because they have been praised for everything they have done. But they must realize that the employment market is about how an employee will be a good fit for a company, not the other way around.In fact, in an interview, an important question to ask is: "What would be expected of me as an employee? " In today's tough job market, young job seekers need to provide a potential employer with good reasons to hire them.答案：How can young people attract their future employers? First, they need to demonstrate their knowledge and skills in information technology. Second, they should include in their resumes the experiences that reflect they are cooperative and goal-oriented. Finally, they need to adopt a proper attitude, that is, taking future employers’ expectations into consideration.Where Are the Bees?Bees are essential to the production of food we eat. Bees make honey, but they also pollinate (给......授粉) large areas of crops, such as strawberries, apples and onions. About a third of the food we eat is a result of pollination of the bees. Unfortunately, bees have been disappearing at an alarming rate.In 2006, bee keepers started reporting about something called Colony Collapse Disaster (CCD). The main sign of CCD is the loss of adult honey bees from a hive. In October of 2006, some beekeepers reported that they had lost between 30 and 90 percent of their hives.There were many theories for the disappearance of the bees. But the most convincing one has to do with pesticides and lifestyles of bees today. Nowadays, beekeepers get most of their income not from producing honey but from renting bees to pollinate plants. This means that the life of the typical bee now consists of traveling all around the country to pollinate crops as the seasons change. That means a lot of traveling on trucks, which is very stressful to bees. It is not unusual for up to 30% of the hive to die during transport due to stress. In addition, bees that spend most of their time locked up on trucks are not exposed to what they usually live on. Instead, they live on a sweet liquid from corn, usually polluted with pesticides.The exact reason for the disappearance of bees is not sure, but losing bees is very costly to the economy. The bee pollination services are worth over $8 billion a year. With no bees, pollination will have to be done by hand, which would have effects on the quality of food and increased food prices. We hear a lot about big environmental disasters almost every day. But one of the biggest may just be the loss of that tiny flying insect.答案：Bees are necessary for people because one third of the food we eat is pollinated by bees. But bees are disappearing because of too much pressure ob beehives in trucks or being killed by pesticides, which may influence the quality of food and increased food prices, and cause great losses to economic development.It's undeniable: Being among the first to try out a new piece of technology is cool. There's the excitement of doing what has never been done before—the feeling that you're living in the future. And when you're the sole member of your social circle with the latest hot gadget, people stare in fascination. They ask you questions. They see you as the holder of powerful, secret knowledge—for a little while, until the next big thing comes along. People tend to underestimate the costs of this temporary coolness, which they pay in more ways than one. Don't fall into the early adopter trap. Don't join the first wave of consumers who invest in the latest media-hyped hardware; instead, wait and see.To put it frankly, early adoption is a bad investment. First, the earliest versions of devices are not only expensive, they are also the most expensive that those devices will ever be. Companies are presumably attempting to recover the cost of production as fast as they can, and they know that there are serious tech-lovers who will pay a great deal to be first. Once the revenues from early adopters' purchases are safely in their hands, they can cut the price and shift to the next marketing phase: selling the product to everyone else. This is why the cost of the original iPhone dropped about U. S. $200 only eight months after its release. Plus, electronics hardly ever become more expensive because intense competition in the industry puts downward pressure on prices over time. Prices of gadgets will fall shortly after release, and they will likely keep falling. Many new TV models drop significantly in price as little as ten days after hitting the market. Further, electronics rapidly depreciate because they become obsolete (废弃的) so quickly. This means that early adopters pay the maximum price for an item that does not hold onto its value. The resale price of a cell phone or laptop can drop by fifty percent within just a few months.Speaking of becoming obsolete, those who are first to leap into a new technology risk wasting money and time on something that will never catch on. Another good reason to resist the early-adoption temptation is that the first version of a product typically has defects that cost a lot in time and frustration. Such problems are so common with new technology that early adopters are basically unpaid beta testers and troubleshooters. Unless this sounds to you like a fun way to spend your time, don’t be among the first users. If you wait to learn what the problems are with a new electronic gadget, you can look forward to a smoother experience—or choose a less troublesome product.答案：Don’t be the first users of the new electronic equipment. The reasons are as following: firstly, the earliest versions of devices are not only expensive. Secondly, electronics will be out of date rapidly. Thirdly, the first version of a product are with some defects generally. Therefore, don’t be the first to try out the new products.。

the end． They are the ancestors of modem amphibians such as frogs． They are believed by scientists（64）______（live） at the same time the dinosaurs began their rule．Steve Brusatte led the study． He said the new species had （65）______（hundred） of sharp teeth． It looks somehow "strange" （66）______（compare） to anything today．Feeding mainly（67）______fish， it was at the top of the food chain． But it's also （68）______danger for newly appeared dinosaurs and mammals that moved too near the wate r．The team says the finding confirms that this group of amphibians lived in a（69）______（diverse） geographic area than had been thought．The dig began in 2009 and took several years． The "super salamander" bones （70）______（discover） in a half-meter thick layer of rock in a hillside． The team hopes to raise f unds to continue exploring the site．【答案】previously；length；that/which；to have lived；hundreds；compared；on；a；more diverse；were discovered【解析】61．previously，考查副词，修饰形容词用副词．62．length，考查名词，介词后跟名词作宾语，构成短语in length，表示"在长度上"．63．that/which，考查定语从句，先行词为primitive amphibians，在从句中作主语，用which或that引导定语从句．64．to have lived，考查不定式的完成时态，be believed to have done被认为已经做过．65．hundreds，考查固定搭配，hundreds of数百个．66．compared，考查固定搭配，compared to/with与…比起来，作比较状语．67．on，考查固定搭配，feed on"以…为主食"．68．a，考查冠词，表示一种、一个，用不定冠词泛指．69．more diverse，考查形容词比较级，后面有than，所以用比较级．70．were discovered，考查被动语态，主语bones和discover之间是被动关系，所以用被动语态．在葡萄牙南部，来自爱丁堡大学的科学家最近发现了一些以前不为人知的鳄鱼的化石，这一物种可以长到六英尺长，它生活在湖泊和河流中，这是一群原始两栖动物的一部分，在当时普遍存在，但最终灭绝了，它们是现代两栖动物的祖先，如青蛙，他们被科学家们所认为的生活在恐龙统治时期的时代．史蒂夫•布鲁萨特领导了这项研究，它主要以鱼类为食．研究小组说，这一发现证实了这群两栖动物生活在一个比想象中更多样化的地理区域．这次挖掘始于2009年，历时数年，在山坡上一块半米厚的岩石中发现了"超级火蜥蜴"（super salamander\）的骨头，该团队希望筹集资金继续探索该遗址．本题主要考查了用单词或短语的适当形式填空．做本题的关键是在理解短文的基础上，灵活运用所学的基础知识．本题考到的知识点有：固定的短语，词类的转换，名词的复数形式，副词以及祈使句的用法等．因此，这就需要在平时的学习中，牢固掌握各语言点及一些语法知识．五、书面表达（本大题共1小题，共25.0分）42.共享单车（bike-sharing）在中国发展迅猛，为出行带来了便利，有效缓解了交通压力．但近来共享单车任意弃放、随意毁坏、人为上锁‘窃为己有'

they become a problem．To solve the problems requires the cooperation of all those involved．Local governments need to establish areas where the bicycles can be left and ensure bicycle lanes are properly used．The companies concerned need to review and strengthen their user rules，while the users need to better learn these rules．Bike-sharing is a convenient and green means of urban transport，and we hope it will be successful without negative side effects．【小题2】略【解析】How to deal with the problems in bike-sharingBike-sharing is flourishing in China，but as it has grown problems have

Grammar and VocabularySection ADirections:After reading the passage below, fill in the blanks to make the passage coherentand grammatically correct. 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.“Zootopia” Broke Disney RecordsLast weekend, the latest Disney movie, “Zootopia,” broke records. The movie had the largest opening weekend for a Disney animation（动画片）. People across the United States bought more than $75 million worth of tickets.“Zootopia” is a city of animals. The movie stars a rabbit police officer and a fox criminal (21) team up to find a missing otter（水獭）. He is among several animalsthat have suddenly disappeared from the city.“Zootopia” (22) (praise) for its sharp humor and strong message since its release.The film explores racism and other issues in its description of relations (23) two kindsof animals in the city.Jared Bush and Phil Johnston wrote “Zootopia.” They told reporters that it started out a sa spy movie (24) (set) in several different contexts. But they changed the story (25) they found the animal world especially interesting. They said to (26) something like this. “What’s this world like? What’s the history of this world?” And then, Bush said, they went tothe experts. Not only (27) the writers speak with people who study couture and groupbehavior, but also they talked with animal experts like zookeepers.The creators have noted that the variety of animals was not easy (28) (produce) in drawings. In the movie, 64 species live in multiple neighborhoods (29) (represent) different animals’ living environments. Disney says “Zootopia” is its (30) (complex) animation yet. The extra effort is certainly paying off at the box office.Section BDirections:After reading the passage below, fill in each blank with a proper word given inWhy your Password May Not Be As Safe As It SeemsDoes “qaz2ws” strike you as a nice safe password? What about “adgjmptw”? An analysis has found them to be among the passwords that are most 31 used, which of course means they are not secure at all.When ten million passwords were leaked on to the internet, they appeared to 32 that attempts by internet security experts to make us improve our password strength had been successful, even if, in the specific case of the leaked passwords, they are also completely pointless.While many of the password s were still single words, such as “password”, there was also a clear attempt by many to make them harder to 33 . The problem was that people seemed to do so in the same way.“Users are becoming slightly more 34 of what makes a password strong,” explained WP Engine, an internet company that performed the analysis. “For instance, adding a number or two at the end of a text phrase. That makes it better, right?”But 35 no. They found that almost half a million passwords did this---and in 20 per cent of those all people did was put the number “1” at the end.Perhaps this is why some companies are now trying to move gradually beyond passwords. Yahoo! is giving users the option to associate their mobile phone with an account, had have a single use passwords texted to it each time they want to 36 on.Although the services is voluntary, Dylan Casey an executive at Yahoo!, said that it was“the first step to 37 passwords”. He said it was a(n) 38 that it was increasingly hard for peop le to remember all the passwords they had. “I don’t think we, as an industry, have done a good enough job of putting ourselves in the shoes of the people using our products,” he said.It would certainly be a more sensible strategy than same people’s improv ing upon “password” by using “wasspord” or, tran5p053d numb3r5 f0r 13tt3r5.“We are, for the most part, predictably 39 when it comes to choosing passwords, despite a decade of warnings from password strength checkers during sign-ups,” said WP Engine. “We love taking a(n) 40 , and so do password crackers.III. Reading ComprehensionSection ADirections: For each blank in the following passage there are four words or phrases marked A, B, C and D. Fill in each blank with the word or phrase that best fits the context.Ever been just about to call someone when the phone rings and the person in question is on the other end? Or have you experienced a sudden feeling of unease or danger even though you’re in a(n) 41 situation? If you don’t believe in it, you’ll put it down to 42 and on overactive imagination. But some people believe it is 43 that there is a sixth sense beyond smell, taste, touch, hearing and sight. Now, scientists are carrying out experiments not only to prove that it exists, but also to find out how you can 44 it to your advantage.Dean Radin, a researcher in California, has set up the Boundary Institute in Los Altos and is currently using its website to recruit（招募）4,000 people in 57 countries to find out if there are any 45 instances of sixth sense or, as he calls it, “precognition”—the ability to predict outcomes. The results so far are 46 . In a card test, where you have to 47 which of the five cards on a computer screen will be turned over to reveal a picture, the top scorers hit the right card 48% of the time—the 48 of this happening are 2,669 to 1.49 , Radin’s most famous study involves participants looking at a variety of images that are designed to stimulate a specific responses. In the experiment, participants sit alone in a room in front of a computer, with devices attached to their bodies to measure changes in skin resistance and blood flow, which are measures of emotional arousal. Radin has found that one in six people has a rise in arouse before they see the road accident-type pictures, while remaining 50 before the tree-type pictures.But even if you do accept that a sixth sense exists, the question is, does it actually 51 ? Radin says it does. “the future of our civilisation depends on 52 that are being made now, whether it’s about how we farm our food, how we get rid of our waste or whether we allow chemicals to be included in everyday products. We don’t have answers to these important questions, yet what we decide on will 53 our lives for decades or longer. Anything we can do to improve our ability to predict future events is well worth the 54 ,” he says. “If it turns out that some people can genuinely forecast the future some of the time, as I believe the data shows, then 55 this ability is as important as cutting-edge science.41. A. unfamiliar B. tough C. harmless D. ridiculous42. A. coincidence B. resistance C. innovation D. distraction43. A. mystery B. evidence C. falsehood D. innocence44. A. alter B. define C. find D. use45. A. historical B. strange C. mistaken D. true46. A. extraordinary B. inevitable C. alarming D. disappointing47. A. ask B. guess C. recall D. learn48.

A. expense B. risk C. effort D. wait55. A. proving B. challenging C. limiting D. understanding Section BDirections:Read the following three passages. Each passage is followed by several questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and d. Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage you have read.(A)What happens in a particular class on a particular day depends on the interactions that occur between the teacher, the students, and the material being studied. The classroom context,generally speaking, includes all those factors that influence what happens during teaching and learning. These factors operate on different levels.The physical context, for example, influences what happens in the classroom. Space may restrict participation, depending on how a teacher interprets the situation. Some teachers use their surroundings to promote learning. Notice boards reflect themes or topics being studied; a display area presents students’ written work for others to read. Of course, some teachers remain unaware of the physical environment that they and their students inhabit together. A room, after all, is just a room. Yet the physical environment of the classroom affects the nature and types of interactions that will occur. Straight rows of tables, for example, are favourable to classroom lectures and turn-taking routines in which students one by one, recite answers to a teacher’s questions.A room isn’t just a room for teachers who seek to make the physical environment suitable for interactive learning. Interactive learning invites thinking, reading, writing, speaking, listening, and sharing. Such classrooms are arranged for individuals rather than for the “class” as a whole; they welcome students as active participants. Various physical arrangements encourage interactive learning, but they depend on the size of the room and the furniture that is available.A class can be organized for individual, group, or whole-class activities. Students are initially assigned seats at a combination of small and large tables. However, when the students work individually or in groups, they are free to abandon the assigned seating. The chalkboard occupies a central position in the room to accommodate whole-class study.56. According to the passage, “the physical context ” (paragraph 2) may include .A. teachers’ rolesB. themes being studiedC. a display areaD. students’ participation57. Which of the following is the most suitable for a classroom lecture? A.B .C .D .58. From the last paragraph, we can learn that .A. classrooms should be arranged for the class as a wholeB. the chalkboard should be abandoned during group workC. seating can be changed for different classroom activitiesD. interaction can be encouraged by combining small and large tables59. What is the passage mainly about?A. The physical classroom environment varies with different types of interaction.B. The physical environment is a deciding factor for a successful lesson.C. Interactive learning depends on individuals’ active involvement.D. Group work has become a trend in classroom teaching.(B)•$15.00USD-8.5x11 Paper•$24.00USD-11x17 Paper•$30.00USD-13x19 Paper•$45.00USD-17x22 Paper•$95.00USD-24x30 Paper•$185.00USD-34x47 Paper•$70.00USD-17x22 Exhibition Canvas（帆布）•$140.00USD-24x30 Exhibition Canvas•$275.00USD-36x50 Exhibition Canvas•$350.00USD-44x61 Exhibition Canvas•$80.00USD-8.5x11 Framed (Black)•$85.00USD-8.5x11 Framed (Brown)•$140.00USD-11x17 Framed (Black)•$150.00USD-11x17 Framed (Brown)•$215.00USD-17x22 Framed (Black)•$225.00USD-17x22 Framed (Brown)A German travel poster showing the Imperial Add to CartThis product ships for free (both in U.S.A. and overseas)Made in U.S.A. / Satisfaction Guaranteed Castle in Nuremberg.Illustrated by Jupp Wiertz, c.1930s.Christmas Shipping Deadlines•Domestic orders placed by December 20 will arrive for Christmas.•Overseas orders placed by December 9 will arrive for Christmas.•Overnight orders placed by December 22 will arrive for Christmas for an additional fee.

Remaining too involved in a kid’s life, especially throughout college, can lead to depression, lack of self-reliance and feelings of entitlement.This wisdom seems sound. But some academics and educators now say they see signs of a troubling resistance. The concern: that too much of warnings and horror stories—the cover of Julie Lythcott-Haims’ bestseller How to Raise an Adult instructs moms and dads to avoid “the overparenting trap” —is discouraging parents from getting involved at all.“Yes, parents can be intruders,” says Marj orie Savage, a researcher in the University of Minnesota. “At the same time, there are increasing examples of parents refusing to step up when students genuinely need their family.” At Hofstra University, for example, parents now ask embarrassedly about mental-health and campus-safety resources, as if bringing up those topics were forbidden, says Branka Kristie, who heads the family-outreach programs. And Savage recalls talking to a mom who kept quiet about her son’s signs of depression until right before h e failed a semester. She did not want to “helicopter in.”That means colleges, which have spent the past decade learning to cope with parents who get too involved, now have a different problem. In recent years, hundreds of colleges have either launched or increased their parent offices, which serve as one-stop shops for moms and dads looking to make complaints, report problem and generally stay in touch.Much of this began, of course, because schools were forced to cope with a generation of students connected with their parents like never before. On average, they communicate 22.1 times per week, according to research from Barbara Hofer, a psychology professor at Middlebury College. That’s more than twice the rate of a decade ago, before almost every student had a smartphone.With some moms and dads thinking twice of contacting the school in the first place, some programs are being used to encourage a more balanced approach, often through email and other social media. Hofstra’s Kristic advises parents to “be a guide, while granting that the student owns the journey.” That means asking questions, listening to answers, being patient and trusting kids to resolve their own problems. But if issues persist, or if a student isin serious mental or physical danger, it also means hopping in the chopper, at least for alittle while.63. In paragraph 3, parents of Hofstra University students are mentioned to .A. show that parents have gone to the other extreme of overparentingB. provide educators with a new understanding of overparentingC. give a further example of supportive overparentingD. place emphasis on the necessity of overparenting64. The phrase “hopping in the chopper” in the last paragraph refers to .A. having trust in kidsB. stepping i n to solve kids’ problemsC .joining a family-outreach program D. turning to social media for help65. What can be inferred from the passage?A. Mental-health and campus-safety resources are forbidden topics among parents.B. How to Raise an Adult encourages parents to get engaged in family education.C. Overparenting is no longer a problem because of students’ self-reliance.D. There was less student-parent communication in the past than today.66. Which of the following is the best title for the passage?A. Why Colleges Need Helicopter ParentsB. How to Improve Parent-school RelationsC. Why Overparenting Is in QuestionD. How to Communicate More as ParentsSection CDirections:Read the following passage. Fill in each blank with a proper sentence given in the box. Each sentence can be used only once. Note that there are two more sentences thanJapanese and American Comic Book HeroesTo some people, the idea of reading comic books seems childish. 67 Comics arepublished globally, but Japanese and American versions dominate the market despite the fact—or perhaps because—they differ in a number of ways.68 American comics are a group effort, beginning with the story-writing team and the artist who produces drawings of initial ideas. When these drafts are finalized, the outlines, dialogue, and color are added. Also, creators of comic superheroes sometimes sell their titles to other creative teams, who keep the superhero “alive.” This is in sharp co ntrast to manga （日本漫画）creators, who are often individual authors merely responsible for the storylines, dialogue, and artwork. When a manga creator decides to stop, so does the hero.Another difference is the appearance of the heroes. 69 Also, manga heroes rarely look Japanese, and the stories do not typically take place in a Japanese context. However, American comic heroes, despite their masks, are proudly American and are admired for their readiness to defend U.S. cities.Probably the biggest difference is the readership. Up until the 1950s, American comic books were read by both children and adults, with popular titles such as Superman selling as many as half a million copies per month. The arrival of TV, however, led to a decline in sales so that now the average reader of an American comic book is a teenage boy with an interest in superheroes. 70 There manga sales are still booming, reaching as high as $7 billion each year largely because readers range from young boys and girls up to middle-aged men and women. Manga for men and boys, like the American comics, tend to be action-oriented, while manga for women and girls tend to be focused on relationships.IV. Summary WritingDirections:Read the following passage. Summarize the main idea and the main point(s) of the passage in no more than 60 words. Use your own words as far as possible.ShynessIf you suffer from shyness, you are not alone, for shyness is a universal phenomenon. It is not surprising that social scientists are exploring its environmental causes.The first environmental cause of shyness may be a child’s home and family life. Today’s children are growing up in smaller and smaller families, with fewer and fewer relatives living nearby. Growing up in homes in which both parents work full time, children may not have the socializing experience of frequent visits by neighbors and friends. Because of their lack ofsocial skills, they may begin to feel shy when they start school.A second environmental cause of shyness in an individual may be one’s culture. In alarge study conducted in Japan, 57 percent of participants rated themselves as shy.Researchers Lynne Henderson and Philip Zimbardo say, “One explanation is that in Japan, anindividual’s performance success is credited externally t o parents, grandparents, teachers,coaches, and others, while failure is entirely blamed on the person.” Therefore, Japanese learnnot to take risks in public and rely instead on group-shared decisions.Technology may also play a role. In the United States, the number of young people whoreport being shy has risen from 40 percent to 50 percent in recent years. Due to our hugeadvances in technology, watching television, playing video games, and surfing the Web havereplaced recreational activities that involve social interaction for many young people. Adults,too, are becoming more isolated as a result of technology. Face-to-face interactions with bankclerks, gas station attendants, and shop assistants are no longer necessary because people canuse machines to do their banking, fill their gas tanks, and order goods. In short, they becomeshy.It appears that most people have experienced shyness at some time in their lives.Therefore, if you are shy, you have lots of company.V.

Grammar and VocabularySection ADirections: After reading the passage below, fill in the blanks to make the passages coherent and grammatically correct. 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.“Zootopia” Broke Disney RecordsLast weekend,the latest Disney movie, “Zootopia”,broke records.The movie had the largestopening weekend for a Disney animation(动画片).People across the United States bought more than $75 million worth of tickets.“Zootopia” is a city of animals.The movie stars a rabbit police officer and a fox criminal (21)__________ team up to find a missing otter(水濑).He is among several animals that have suddenly disappeared from the city.“Zootopia” (22)__________ (praise) for its sharp humor and strong message since its release.The film explores racism and other issues in its description of relations (23)__________ two kinds of animals in the city.Jared Bush and Phil Johnston wrote “Zootopia”.They told reporteres that it started out as a spy movie (24)__________ (set) in several different contexts.But they changed the story (25)__________ they found the animal world especially interesting.They said to (26)__________ something like this.“What’s this world like?What’s the history of this world?”And then,Bush said,they went to the experts.Not only (27)__________ the writers speak with people who study couture(时装) and group behaviour,but also they talked with animal experts like zookeepers.The creators have noted that the variety of animals was not easy (28)__________ (produce) in drawings.In the movie,64 species live in multiple neighborhoods (29)__________ (represent) different animals’ living environments.Disney says “Zootopia” is its (30)__________ (complex) animation yet.The extra effort is certainly paying off at the box office.Section BDirections: After reading the passage below,fill in each blank with a proper word given in theDoes “qaz2ws” strike you as a nice safe password?What bout “adgjmptw”?An analysis has found them to be among the passwords that are most (31)__________ used,which of course means they are not secure at all.When ten million passwords were leaked on to the internet,they appeared to (32)__________ that attempts by internet security experts to make us improve our password strength had been successful,even if,in the specific case of the leaked passwords,they are also completely pointless. While many of the passwords were still single words,such as “password”,there was also a clear attempt by many to make them harder to (33)__________.The problem was that people seemed to do so in the same way.“Users are becoming slightly more (34)__________ of what makes a password strong,” explained WP Engine,an internet company that performed the analysis. “For instance,adding a number or two at the end of a text phrase.That makes it better,right?”But (35)__________ no.They found that almost half a million passwords did this—and in 20 percent of those all people did was put the number “1” at the end.Perhaps this is why some companies are now trying to move gradually beyond passwords.Yahoo is giving users the option to associate their mobile phone with an account,had have a single use-passwords texted to it each time they want to (36)__________ on.Although the services is voluntary,Dylan Casey,an executive at Yahoo,said that it was “the first step to (37)__________ passwords”.He said it was a(n) (38)__________ that it was increasinglyhard for people to remember all the passwords they had. “I don’t think we,as an industry,have done a good enough job of putting ourselves in the shoes of the people using our products,”he said.It would certainly be a more sensible strategy than same people’s improving upon “password” by using “password” or,tran5p053d unmb3r5 f0r 13tt3r5.“We are,for the most part,predictably (39)__________ when it comes to choosing passwords,despite a decade of warnings from password strength checkers during sign-ups,”said WP Engine. “We love taking a(n) (40)__________,and so do password crackers.”III. Reading ComprehensionSection ADirections:For each blank in the following passages 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.Ever been just about to call someone when the phone rings and the person in question is on the other end?Or have you experienced a sudden feeling of unease or danger even though you’re in a(n) (41)__________ situation?If you don’t believe in it,you’ll put it down to (42)__________ and on overactive imagination.But some people believe it is (43)__________ that there is a sixth sense beyond smell,taste,touch,hearing and sight.Now,scientists are carrying out experiments not only to prove that it exists,but also to find out how you can (44)__________ it to your advantage.Dean Radin,a researcher in California,has set up the Boundary Institute in Los Altos and is currently using its website to recruit(招募) 4,000 people in 57 countries to find out if there are any (45)__________ instances of sixth sense or,as he calls it, “precognition”—the ability to predict outcomes.The results so far are (46)__________.In a card test,where you have to (47)__________ which of the five cards on a computer screen will be turned over to reveal a picture,the top scorers hit the right card 48% of the time—the (48)__________ of this happening are 2,669 to 1.(49)__________,Radin’s most famous study involves participants looking at a variety of images that are designed to stimulate a specific responses.In the experiment,participants sit alone in a room in front of a computer,with are measures of emotional arousal.Radin has found that one in six people has a rise in arouse before they see the road accident-type pictures,while remaining (50)__________ before the tree-type pictures.But even if you do accept that a sixth sense exists,the question is,does it actually (51)__________?Radin says it does. “the future of our civilization depends on (52)__________ that are being made now,whether it’s about how we farm our food,how we get rid of our waste or whether we allow chemicals to be included in everyday products.We don’t have answers to these important questions,yet what we decide on will (53)__________ our lives for decades or longer.Anything we can do to improve our ability to predict future events is well worth the (54)__________,”he says. “If it turns out that some people can genuinely forecast the future some of the time,as I believe the data shows,then (55)__________ this ability is as important as cutting-edge science.”41.

A.proving B.challenging C.limiting D.understandingSection BDirections: Read the following three passages. Each passage is followed by several questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage you have read.(A)What happens in a particular class on a particular day depends on the interactions that occur between the teacher,the students,and the material being studied.The classroom context,generally speaking,includes all those factors that influence what happens during teaching and learning.These factors operate on different levels.The physical context,for example,influences what happens in the classroom.Space may restrict participation,depending on how a teacher interprets the situation.Some teachers use their surroundings to promote learning.Notice boards reflect themes or topics being studies;a display area presents students’ written work for others to read.Of course,some teachers remain unaware of the physical environment that they and their students inhabit together.A room,after all,is just a room.Yet the physical environment of the classroom affects the nature and types of interactions that will occur.Straight rows of tables,for example,are favorable to classroom lectures and turn-taking routines in which students one by one,recite answers to a teacher’s questions.A room isn’t just a room for teachers who seek to make the physical environment suitable for interactive learning.Interactive learning invites thinking,reading,writing,speaking,listening,and sharing.Such classrooms are arranged for individuals rather than for the “class” as a whole;they welcome students as active participants.Various physical arrangements encourage interactive learning,but they depend on the size of the room and the furniture that is available.A class can be organized for individual,group,or whole-class activities.Students are initially assigned seats at a combination of small and large tables.However,when the students work individually or in groups,they are free to abandon the assigned seating.The chalkboard occupies a central position in the room to accommodate whole-class study.56.According to the passage,the physical context (paragraph 2) may include __________.A.teachers’ rolesB.themes being studiedC.a display areaD.student’s participation57.Which of the following is the most suitable for a classroom lecture?（此处应有图片）58.From the last paragraph,we can learn that __________.A.classrooms should be arranged for the class as a wholeB.the chalkboard should be abandoned during group workC.seating can be changed for different classroom activitiesD.interaction can be encouraged by combining small and large tables59.What is the passage mainly about?A.The physical classroom environment varies with different types of interaction.B.The physical environment is a deciding factor for a successful lesson.C.Interactive learning depends on individuals’ active involvement.D.Group work has become a trend in classroom teaching.Domestic orders placed by December 20 will arrive for Christmas.Overseas orders placed by December 9 will arrive for Christmas.Overnight orders placed by December 22 will arrive for Christmas for an addition fee.Framed orders(domestic or overseas) require additional time for delivery.About Our PaperWe use high-quality,acid-free papers or heavy weight Exhibition Gallery Canvas.Paper SizesPaper sizes are in inches.If an image’s dimensions(尺寸) don’t exactly match the paper’s dimensions there will be a wider margin on the narrowest side.The long edge on prints 34×47 and larger will vary depending on the dimensions of the photo and may be longer than the size listed.Custom(定制的)FramesWe’ve partnered with Simply Framed to offer high-quality custom frames made in the USA.Please allow an additional 3 weeks for delivery.Frames come in black or brown wooden finish and include protective paperback finish,wall bumpers,hanging hardware+nails,hanging and care instructions.Frames arrive gift-wrapped in brown paper.Framed sales are final.60.If you want to order a 17×22 print on canvas with a black frame,how much are you expected to pay?A.$45.00USD.B.$70.00USD.C.$215.00USD.

Fill in each blank with a proper sentence given in the box.To some people,the idea of reading comic books seems childish.(67)__________ Comics are published globally,but Japanese and American versions dominate the market despite the fact—or perhaps because—they differ in a number of ways.(68)__________ American comics are a group effort, beginning with the story-writing team and the artist who produces drawings of initial ideas. When these drafts are finalized, the outlines,dialogue,and color are added.Also,creators of comic superheroes sometimes sell their titles to other creative teams,who keep the superhero “alive”.This is in sharp contrast to manga(日本漫画) creators,who are often individual authors merely responsible for the storylines,dialogue,and artwork.When a manga creator decides to stop,so does the hero.Another difference is the appearance of the heroes.(69)__________ Also,manga heroes rarely look Japanese,and the stories do not typically take place in a Japanese context.However,American comic heroes,despite their masks,are proudly American and are admired for their readiness to defend U.S. cities.Probably the biggest difference is the readership.Up until the 1950s,American comic books were read by both children and adults,with popular titles such as Superman selling as many as half a million copies per month.The arrival of TV,however,led to a decline in sales so that now the average reader of an American comic book is a teenage boy with an interest in superheroes.(70)__________ There manga sales are still booming,reaching as high as $7 billion each year largely because readers range from young boys and girls up to middle-aged men and women.Manga for men and boys,like the American comics,tend to be action-oriented,while manga for women and girls tend to be focused on relationships.I V. Summary WritingDirections:Read the following passage. Summarize the main idea and the main point(s) of the passage in no more than 60 words. Use your own words as far as possible.ShynessIf you suffer from shyness,you are not alone,for shyness is a universal phenomenon.It is not surprising that social scientists are exploring its environmental causes.The first environmental cause of shyness may be a child’s home and family life.Today’s children are growing up in smaller and smaller families,with fewer and fewer relatives living nearby.Growing up in homes in which both parents work full time,children may not have the socializing experience of frequent visits by neighbors and friends.Because of their lack of social skills,they may begin to feel shy when they start school.A second environmental cause of shyness in an individual may be one’s culture.In a large study conducted in Japan,57 percent of participants rated themselves as shy.Researchers Lynne Henderson and Philip Zimbardo say, “One explanation is that in Japan,an individual’s performance success is credited externally to parents,grandparents,teachers,coaches,and others,while failure is entirely blamed on the person.”Therefore,Japanese learn not to take risks i public and rely instead on group-shared decisions.Technology may also play a role.In the United States,the number of young people who report being shy has risen from 40 percent to 50 percent in recent years.Due to our huge advances in technology,watching television,playing video games,and surfing the Web have replaced recreational activities that involve social interaction for many young people.Adults,too,are becoming more isolated as a result of technology.Face-to-face interactions with bank clerks,gas station attendants,and shop assistants are no longer necessary because people can use machines to do their banning,fill their gas tanks,and order goods.In short,they become shy.It appears that most people have experienced shyness at some time in their lives.Therefore,if you are shy,you have lots of company.第II卷（共40分）V.

For example, the term “delivered in 1-5 working days” can be confusing for Chinese shoppers, as it doesn’t clarify whether this is the time in which the product will arrive or the time it takes for it to be 37 .The method of delivering can also determine whether you get your product at all. Unless you choose express or priority delivering, which only takes a few days to deliver but is more expensive, most 38 international deliver ing doesn’t offer a tracking option ― which means once your products are 39 outside of the country there’s no way of finding out where they are.The best consumers are the most sensible ones. If you’re interested in expanding your shopping 40 to foreign websites, make sure you do your research beforehand to avoid your money and products being lost on the way.III.

It is said that there are less than 20 in the world 41, one of which is now living in the national zoo of Peru. In order to protect this jaguar, Peruvians singled out a pitch of land in the zoo for it, where there are flocks of animals for it to eat. Anyone 42has visited the zoo praised it to be the “Heaven of Tiger”. However, no one has ever seen the jaguar hunt the animals. What we could see is its lying in its house eating and sleeping.Some people thought the jaguar felt too lonely so they rented a female tiger to accompany it. Nevertheless, it did not make 43. The jaguar just sometimes went out of its house with its “girlfriend” and stayed in the sun for a while.英语2017 春模拟I卷第6页（共14页）“I t is 44for the jaguar to be lazy in this environment.

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 read.(A)You may have heard a lot about the people collecting stamps or coins. However, have you heard about people who like to collect paper cups or wrapping paper, things that we see every day but might not have for once looked at seriously?Jeffrey Brown, a 32-year-old NET teacher from the UK, was very interested when he first saw the paper cups used in Chinese tea restaurants in Hong Kong. “You can see these orange and white pretty cups all the time when you buy takeaway drinks at a local tea restaurant. The patterns on the outside of the cups are unique. Yet people in Hong Kong just see straight through them,” he said. “They think these paper cups look all the same, but in fact each of them looks a bit differ ent from the others. If you pay attention, you’ll notice some of these paper cups have spiral(螺旋) patterns on them, some of them have patterns of waves. There is a large number of variations.”Jeffrey now owns over 200 paper cups, all in the color of white and orange but with different designs. When people offer to buy his cups, he simply refuses.Another collector, Stacey Cheng, likes to collect sweets wrapping paper and uses it to make decorative art. Her work is among the most popular goods in local gift shops. “I started collecting them when I was 4,” she said smiling. “When I finished a sweet, I wouldn’t let my mum throw away the wrapping paper because it looked so pretty.” Now, whenever Stacey enters a snack shop, the first thing she does is to look for new products with special designs. “Once I finish the sweets.I keep the wrapping paper. Sometimes I treat my friends to the snacks just to get the wrapping paper sooner,” she said. “They can’t be happier when I do so.”56.

Where can you probably find the text?A. An official report.B. A popular magazine.C. A physics textbook.D. A product handbook.(C)Foreseeing a time when a patient’s own cells may be harvested, multiplied, and fashioned into a replacement organ, researchers in Boston have successfully transplanted laboratory grown bladders (肾) into six dogs.For a century, physicians have replaced diseased or damaged bladders by removing sections of a person’s intestines (肠子) and shaping them into a substitute bladder. While the procedure offers some relief to patients, complications often develop because nature designs intestinal tissue for a purpose—absorbing nutrients—other than holding waste liquid of the body. “You start absorbing stuff that should be removed,” says Anthony Atala o f the Children’s Hospital in Boston.Other physicians have turned to human-made materials to create artificial bladders, but those efforts have also run into problems. Consequently, to build a better bladder, Atala and his colleagues decided to employ the organ’s own cells.英语2017 春模拟I卷第10页（共14页）To turn the cells into an organ, the researchers first form plastic which can break down naturally into bladder-shaped shell. They then coat its outside and inside with layers of cells needed.To test this strategy, Atala’s group obtained bladder tissue from dogs and grew it into organs. After removing the dogs’ bladders, the investigators implanted(移植) the artificial ones coming from the dogs’ own cells. Within a month, the organs began to perform like normal bladders.Within three months, the plastic shells had broken down naturally, and the implanted organs were hard to distinguish from natural ones. Blood vessels(血管) quickly grew into them. Moreover, nerves seem to form proper connections with the new organs, allowing the dogs to regain normal control of their bladders. Some dogs have had the artificial bladders for nearly a year without any problems.While the bladders of dogs closely resemble those of people, Atala warns that more testing of this transplant strategy must occur before artificial bladders are ready for the clinic.63. The traditional method of shaping parts of intestines into a substitute bladder _______.A. allows the patient to absorb useless thingsB. brings the patient a lot of sufferingsC. prevents the patient from absorbing nutrientsD. worsens both the function of the intestines and the bladder64. The artificial bladders implanted in dogs _______.A. worked perfectly as long as three monthsB. began to work as well as a normal one in a few weeksC. proved to be able to work for several yearsD. did not work properly until after a month65. Why is it suggested that more testing should be made?A. What suits dogs’ bladders will also suit human bladders.B. Dogs’ bladders can be implanted into human bodies.C. Human bladders may well be different from dogs.D. Artificial bladders grown in dogs can be used for human beings.英语2017 春模拟I卷第11页（共14页）英语2017 春 模拟I 卷 第12页（共14页）66. What does the passage mainly talk about? A. The way of turning intestines into bladders. B. The prospect of manufacturing plastic bladders. C. The history of making artificial bladders.D. The possibility of making bladders from their own cells.Section CDirections: Read the following passage. Fill in each blank with a proper sentence given in the box. Each sentence can be used only once. Note that there are two more sentences than you need.Criticisms in lifeCriticism can be divided into two types.The first type is when someone expresses their disapproval. This is the type of criticism that can be the most hurtful. Parents might express their disapproval of your choice in career, friends or lifestyle. People may criticize how you dress or the way you act. It can be terribly unpleasant to tolerate (容忍) it.The second type of criticism involves pointing out your weaknesses and mistakes. No one is perfect, yet many imperfect people seem to find itextremely easy to “let us know” when we more annoying. When people express their disapproval of some area of your life you first need to consider how you feel about it. You need to be secure in who you are and the decisions that youRemember that there is a difference between being firm in your choices and being stubborn(固执的). Don’t be stubborn. Be mature enough to truly hear what they are saying, evenbut what they were saying is not for you. Don’t be mad at them.Other people have different views on what you are doing and can help you. If you are one of those people who just want to learn the hard way, try listening to some advice for a change. It might do you some good.IV. Summary WritingDirections: Read the following passage. Summarize the main idea and the main point(s) of the passage in no more than 60 words. Use your own words as far as possible.How to deal with Whiners(抱怨不停的人) ?There are always some people radiating negativity in the work place. For them, the temperature is never right, the boss is always a fool, the canteen food is awful, and they are always treated unfairly.Career experts say such habitual complainers are highly contagious(会蔓延的) and that their attitude can easily affect an entire team in a company. “While some complaints might be reasonable, others are taken from thin air. You need to see between these different types and adopt the right strategy towa rds each,” said Li Ling, HR manager at Wal-Mart (China).It’s especially hard to deal with complaints at work because you can’t just walk away or put your colleagues’ words out of mind. If you do, it will hurt your co-workers and you might be isolated. In a team-based company you belong to a group and need to behave accordingly. But don’t show too much sympathy. Listening passively to others’ complaints could damage your image and give others the impression that you agree with them. “Listen to the whiners actively,” says HR Li. “Help them find a solution, or see if there are ways to improve the situation.”Zhai Min, 24, a software engineer at Kingdee International Software Group in Shenzhen, found that 3 elderly workers liked to complain about everything, from extended working hours to英语2017 春模拟I卷第13页（共14页）cheap hotels on business trips. “I let them talk about their opinions,” she said, “They feel better when they can tell someone how they want things to be.”But listening actively is far from enough. Wang Dianxue, 27, is an Internet engineer at Beijing Push Marcom Group. His co-workers always complain that their computer systems are not working properly. “I ask about the specifics and work together with them t o fix everything technically.” he said.HR managers believe that when staffs complain, it is more a matter of recognition than an actual problem. “The real problem is that the whiners don’t feel they are being taken seriously,” said Xu Jun, HR manager at G uangqi Honda Automobile Co., Ltd. “When you attentively give them advice or perspectives, the problem usually disappears.”第II卷（共15分）V. TranslationDirections: Translate the following sentences into English, using the words given in the brackets.1.他很少意识到与别人交流的重要性。

如果选择主办方安排的住宿，他需要额外支付较高的费用。
但他也可以通过为当地社区养老院提供每月三十小时的义工服务，获得在养老院免费住宿的机会，李宏通过邮件向你征求意见。
写一封回信，内容须包括：1.你对此事的明确态度；2.你的理由。
Writing 1:Dear LiHong,Hearing that you have access to participate in an overseas communication activity in Britain which will last two months, I'm now writing to extend a helping hand, hoping that my suggestions that you should choose working as a volunteer thirty hours every month for the local community nursing home to gain an opportunity to stay in it for free may be beneficial to you to some extent.There are three main reasons accounting for my proposal. First and foremost, only by working as a volunteer can you attain a free stay. Apparently, in contrast with the accommodation arranged by the host, you can save a substantial amount of money. In addition, staying at a community nursing home, not only can you be exposed more to real life in society and enhance your social experiences, thus helping you to get more mature, but your arrival will add colors to the atmosphere and reduce the burdens there as well. Last but not least, there is no denying that the interaction with the elderly can polish up your socializing skills as well as raise your awareness to cooperate with strangers, which will contribute to your comprehensive and coordinated development. As an old saying goes, 'We can gain both things at the same time.' So why not choose it?I genuinely hope that you will take my suggestions into consideration. Best wishes that you will have a good time there. It is a golden chance that you will gain in summer vacation. In short, Enjoy yourself.Yours sincerely,WangLeiWriting 2:Dear Li Hong,Ifs good news to learn that you are going to participate in the 2-month overseas exchange program in Britain. And I have also learnt you are hesitating over the choice of accommodation between the two, one arranged by the organizer, for which you need to pay extra high cost and one provided by the nursing home free of charge as long as you do the volunteer job for 30 hours every month there.From my perspective, it will be of great benefit to you if you choose the latter and my reasons are as follows. The first that immediately comes to my mind is that you can have a better understanding of Britain. By doing the voluntary work, you have direct contact with the old people there, thus exposed more to local culture and people, let alone improving your spoken English. Moreover, it is a golden chance for you to be in contact with society to accumulate social experience, helping you get more mature and experienced in the future campus and work life. Of course, it is self-evident that you can save a substantial amount of money, relieving the burden of your parents.My dear fellow, really hope that you will take my suggestions into account and meantime enjoy your stay there. Do share your photos and keep me posted about your life there!2017 上海秋考英语作文VI.

2017、2018年春考&秋考语填、词汇、完型专项（一）2017年春II. Grammar and VocabularySection ADirections: After reading the passage below, fill in the blanks to make the passage coherent and grammatically correct. 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.“Zootopia” Broke Disney RecordsLast weekend, the latest Disney movie, “Zootopia,” broke records. The movie had the largest opening weekend for a Disney animation（动画片）. People across the United States bought more then $75 million worth of tickets.“Zootopia” is a city of animals. The movie stars a rabbit police officer and a fox criminal (21) team up to find a missing otter（水獭）.He is among several animals that have suddenly disappeared from the city.“Zootopia” (22) (praise) for its sharp humor and strong message since its release. The film explores racism and other issues in its description of relations (23) two kinds of animals in the city.Jared Bush and Phil Johnston wrote “Zootopia.” They told reporters that it started out as a spy movie (24) (set) in several different contexts. But they changed the story (25) they found the animal world especially interesting. They said to (26) something like this. “What’s this world like?

What about “adgjmptw”? An analysis has found them to be among the passwords that are most 31 used, which of course means they are not secure at all.When ten million passwords were leaked on to the internet, they appeared to 32 that attempts by internet security experts to make us improve our password strength had been successful, even if, in the specific case of the leaked passwords, they are also completely pointless.While many of the passwords were still single words, such as “password”, there was also a clear attempt by many to make them harder to 33 . The problem was that people seemed to doso in the same way.“Users are becoming slightly more 34 of what makes a password strong,” explained WP Engine, an internet company that performed the analysis. “For instance, adding a number or two at the end of a text phrase. That makes it better, right?”But 35 no. They found that almost half a million passwords did this---and in 20 per cent of those all people did was put the number “1” at the end.Perhaps this is why some companies are now trying to move gradually beyond passwords. Yahoo! is giving users the option to associate their mobile phone with an account, had have a single use passwords texted to it each time they want to 36 on.Although the services is voluntary, Dylan Casey an executive at Yahoo!, said that it was “the first step to 37 passwords”. He said it was a(n) 38 that it was increasingly hard for people to remember all the passwords they had. “I don’t think we, as an industry, have done a good enough job of putting ourselves in the shoes of the people using our products,” he said.It would certainly be a more sensible strategy than same people’s improving upon “password” by using “wasspord” or, tran5p053d numb3r5 f0r 13tt3r5.“We are, for the most part, predictably 39 when it comes to choosing passwords, despite a decade of warnings from password strength checkers during sign-ups,” said WP Engine. “We love taking a(n) 40 , and so do password crackers.III. Reading ComprehensionSection ADirections: For each blank in the following passage there are four words or phrases marked A, B, C and D. Fill in each blank with the word or phrase that best fits the context.Ever been just about to call someone when the phone rings and the person in question is on the other end? Or have you experienced a sudden feeling of unease or danger even though you’re in a(n) 41 situation? If you don’t believe in it, you’ll put it down to 42 and on overactive imagination. But some people believe it is 43 that there is a sixth sense beyond smell, taste, touch, hearing and sight. Now, scientists are carrying out experiments not only to prove that it exists, but also to find out how you can 44 it to your advantage.Dean Radin, a researcher in California, has set up the Boundary Institute in Los Altos and is currently using its website to recruit（招募）4,000 people in 57 countries to find out if there are any 45 instances of sixth sense or, as he calls it, “precognition”—the ability to predict outcomes. The results so far are 46 . In a card test, where you have to 47 which of the five cards on a computer screen will be turned over to reveal a picture, the top scorers hit the right card 48% of the time—the 48 of this happening are 2,669 to 1.49 , Radin’s most famous study involves participants looking at a variety of images that are designed to stimulate a specific responses. In the experiment, participants sit alone in a room in front of a computer, with devices attached to their bodies to measure changes in skin resistance and blood flow, which are measures of emotional arousal. Radin has found that one in six people has a rise in arouse before they see the road accident-type pictures, while remaining 50 before the tree-type pictures.But even if you do accept that a sixth sense exists, the question is, does it actually 51 ? Radin says it does. “the future of our civilisation depends on 52 that are being made now,whether it’s about how we farm our food, how we get rid of our waste or whether we allow chemicals to be included in everyday products. We don’t have answers to these important questions, yet what we decide on will 53 our lives for decades or longer. Anything we can do to improve our ability to predict future events is well worth the 54 ,” he says. “If it turns out that some people can genuinely forecast the future some of the time, as I believe the data shows, then 55 this ability is as important as cutting-edge science.41.

Some people seem able to concentrate on practicing an activity like this for years and take pleasure in their gradual improvement.

Why?The difference may turn on the ability to enter into a state of “flow,” the feeling of being completely (44) ______ in what you are doing. Wh ether you call it being “in the zone,” or something else, a flow state is a special experience. Since Mihaly Csikszentmihalyi developed the (45) ______ of flow in the 1970’s, it has been a mainstay of positive-psychology research.

Fill in each blank with the word or phrase that best fits the context.The idea that “you get what you earn” is widely accepted as what is “fair” in most Western societies. __41__, this attitude appears very early in childhood: Children as young as three believe that hard work deserves more reward. But is this belief __42__?German psychologist Marie Schafer and her team decided to put this to the test, studying the __43__ of children, four to eleven years old, in three different cultures: Germany, Namibia and Kenya. The scientists asked the children to go fishing. In this case, the “fish” were metal balls, which the children tried to “catch” with magnetized fishing rods (磁性钓鱼竿). The idea was to test how much the children valued merit (值得嘉奖的成果). So each child was given a number of sweets equal to the total number of fish in the catch, and was told to __44__ the sweets any way he or she wanted. If they valued merit, children should divide up the sweets according to shares of the catch. This is, if they caught the same number of fish, they would choose to reward each one __45__, but if one did a better job of fishing, rewards would also be disproportionate.__46__ matters. That’s the main finding from the study published in the journal Psychological Science. The German children divided up the rewards exactly in proportion to __47__, even when this meant a very unbalanced distribution of rewards. __48__, children from Namibia and Kenya, the two rural African societies, barely took merit into consideration at all. These findings suggest that the basic concept of merit and distributive justice is far from universal in our species, and that __49__ is culturally defined.But __50__? The scientists offer some thoughts on this. It could be that in large-scale societies like Germany, merit is __51__ for regulating interactions between people who don’t know each other and may not interact again. In small-scale societies, however, most exchanges take place between people who are __52__ with one another. It may be more important in such societies to build long-term relationships based on equity (公道)---rather than to insist on equity in a single __53__. In societies like the one where the group of children from Namibia came from, sharing is an important approach to __54__ differences in wealth and increasing harmony. Children may accept these social values early on, and apply them even when the fishing trip is __55__.41. A. On the contrary B. First of all C. In addition D. What’s more42.

It’s also the most frequently (21) __________ (visit) shop for local police. In the first six months of 2016,14% of the city’s reports originated there, most for shoplifting(商店货物扒窃)---a figure that would be even higher if S&A called the police for every minor theft.(22) __________ (ease) that burden and reduce shoplifting losses, S&A is starting to do police work. Earlier this summer, 90 employees (23) __________ (hire) to guard its doors and check receipts. As part of a program called Justice, they will work with existing employees to manage some small crimes internally. If an employee catches a thief (24) _______ name is not in the police database---that is, a first-time offender---that person will get a choice: pay to take an online course about the consequences of their actions, or face charges. This idea, according to S&A, is to educate lawbreakers (25) _______ involving the police.But the efforts (26) __________ (raise) concerns. For one, it’s unclear (27) _______ the online courses are as helpful as they seem. It is because one of the administrative organizations is being accused of both overcharging and falsely (28) __________ (send) so-called shoplifters to prison. And ______ ______ there are extra staff members, S&A will remain difficult to secure because of its size and accessibility, especially during late-night hours, when fewer employees are working.Still, there are signs (30) _______ the program could work. The local police department says the program reduced police calls to the store by 40.5% from last October through July. But something truly transformational will likely take years---and more police runs in the meantime.Section BDirections: After reading the passage below, fill in each blank with a proper word given in the box. Each word can be used only once. Note that there is one more word than you need.Some Very “American” Words Come from ChineseMany of the Chinese words that are now part of English were borrowed long ago. Some are from Cantonese(广东话).The English word kowtow is a verb that means to agree too easily to do what someone else wants you to do, or to obey someone with power in a way that seems ___31___. It comes from the Cantonese word kau tau, which refers to the act of kneeling and lowering one’s head as a sign of respect to ___32___. In 1793, Britain’s King set Lord George Macartney and other tradesmen to China to ___33___ a trade agreement. The Chinese asked them to kowtow to the emperor. Lord Macartney refused for his ___34___ to do more than bend their knees. Soon after, the English word “kowtow” was born.Another borrowed word that came about through ___ 35___ between two nations is gung-ho. In English, the word gung-ho means extremely excited about doing something. The Chinese characters “gong” and “he” together mean “work together, cooperate.” The original term---gongyehezuoshe---means Chinese Industrial Cooperatives. Evans Carlson of the United States Marine Corps observed these cooperatives while in China. He was impressed, saying “…all the soldiers ___36___ themselves to one idea and worked together to put that idea over.” He thenbegan using the term gung-ho in the Marine Corps to create the same spirit he had ___37___.In English, a typhoon is a very powerful and ___38___ storm occurring around the China Sea and in the South Pacific. According to the Merriam-Webster New Book of Word Histories, the first typhoons reported in the English language were India and were called “touffons.” Later, when English ships encountered violent storms in the China Sea, Englishmen learned the Cantonese world taifung, which means “great wind.” It is a coincidence that the word is ___39___ to touffon. The modern form of the word---typhoon---was influenced by the Cantonese but ___40___ to make it appear more Greek.Ⅲ.

The study found that the percentage of adolescents in America who have a driver’s license, who have tried alcohol, who date and who work for pay has dropped since 1976, with the most dramatic __43__ in the past decade. To be sure, more than half of teens still engage in these activities, but the __44__ have slimmed considerably. Between 1976, 86 percent of high school seniors had gone on a date; between 2010 and 2015, only 63 percent had, the study found.“People say, ‘Oh, it’s because teenagers are more responsible, or more lazy, or more boring,’ but they’re __45__ the larger trend,” said Jean Twenge, lead author of the study. Instead, she said, youths may be less __46__ activities such as dating or driving because in today’s society, they no longer need to be.According to an evolutionary-psychology theory, a person’s life strategy slows down or speeds up depending on the person’s __47__. Thus, exposure to a fierce and unpredictable environment leads to faster development, while a more resource-rich and secure environment has the __48__ effect. In the first __49__, “you’d have a lot of kids and be in survival mode, start having kids young, expect your kids will have kids young, and expect that there will be more __50__ and fewer resources,” said Twenge. A century ago, when life expectancy was lower and college education less common, “the goal back then was survival, not violin lessons by 5,” Twenge said. In that model, a teenage boy might be thinking more __51__ about marriage, and driving a car and working for pay would be important.But the United States is shifting more toward the __52__ model, and the change is apparent in socioeconomic terms, Twenge said. “Even in families whose parents have never been to college, the idea that children need to be carefully __53__ has become widely accepted.”The __54__ of “adult activities” could not be due to more homework or after-school activities, the study said, nothing that teens today spend fewer hours on homework than they did I the 1990s and the same amount of time on after-school activities. Nor could the use ofsmartphones and the Internet be entirely the __55__, the report said, since the decline began before they were widely available.41. A. Rather B. Consequently C. Moreover D.

Before realizing what happened, she was presented a bunch of flowers by two pupils and led to the playground. Then the loving words “Thank you. Wish you health and peace!” from the broadcast wafted (飘荡) over the playground. As she stood in the middle of the playground, teachers switched on an iPod and around 350 schoolchildren, aged three to seven, broke into a specially designed formation. The teacher was moved to tears when pupils broke into a flash mob dance to mark her final day after 25 years.In fact, taking her health into account, the leadership of the school has advised Mrs. Gabica to retire from school many times, but she refused firmly. Despite having diabetes in 2011, suffering from pain after being hit by a car in 2014 and even having a sick son to care for many years, Mrs. Gabica persevered in teaching and staying with her pupils. If she did not come to the age for retirement, she would be bound to stay with her pupils because she has a deep love for her career. Her pupils spent three weeks learning their routine to The Lion King’s He Lives in You, which was one of the mus ic lover’s favorites, being careful not to let their secret out of the bag. Obviously, Mrs. Gabica wasn’t prepared for such a memorable send-off.The headteacher Luke Mansfield said，“It was a wonderful way to celebrate all that Mrs. Gabica has done for the school. Since posting it we have had so many messages from former pupils who remember their happy times in her class. It’s atestament to the hard work and I think she deserves everything that she receives.”25. Which words can best describe the scene of the send-off?A. Surprising and inspiring.B. Touching and surprisingC. Sorrowful and unforgettable.D. Educational and memorable.26. Mrs. Gabica had to end her career because of ________.A. a car accidentB. a serious diseaseC. her retirement ageD. the need of her family27. What can be inferred from the passage?A. Mrs. Gabica is an experienced music teacher.B. Mrs. Gabica directed the flash mob dance secretly.C. Mrs. Gabica’s family may need help after her retirement.D. Mrs. Gabica is thought highly of by her leadership.28. The passage mainly tells us Mrs. Gabica _________.A. received many gifts on Teachers’ DayB. has achieved many honors in her careerC. was given quite a surprise on her final teaching dayD. was extremely welcomed by teachers and pupilsCUniversity can be the most sociable time of your life. For most students, social media is the glue that holds packed social diaries together. Facebook will let you know if a game is cancelled, Twitter can promote your DJ set in 140 characters, and your Instagram account will remind you when there are new photos.These tools have made the world increasingly connected, and most students wouldn’t consider shunningthem at such a sociable stage of their lives. But social media is by no means a requirement at university, and many do without.“I’m a private person and don’t feel the need to shareeverything with everybody I know,” says Caty Forster, 20, a student at the University of Manchester, who has never used Facebook or Twitter. Despite social media’s benefits, Forster is largely indifferent. Bethany Elgood, 25, stopped using Facebook after she discovered she had developed a bit of an anxiety towards the social media platforms that contain lots of personal details.”I quit Facebook when I was 13. I left because, not only was I bored of passively involved in its Newsfeed, I was also experiencing anxiety. To me, Facebook meant clicking and nosing around people’s lives.People would ask, “How do you keep in touch with people?” and “Won’t you miss out anything important?” I was in agreement with Forster, who says, “I never feel like I’m missing out too much. I don’t feel like I’d have anything valuable to share or gain from it.”Adrienne Jolly, a careers advisor at UEA, says, “It’s hard to prove relia ble statistics on social media. But it’s generally accepted that social media networks are pretty influential in this process—for better or worse.”You might decide quitting social media isn’t practical in the long run. However, if its ugly side is bringing you down, why not consider taking leave? By doing so, I gained confidence and a strong connection with reality.[:]29. The author listed three kinds of social media to prove they _______.A. are important for him and others like CatyB. have the power to make students learn moreC. are frequently used by many university studentsD. should be used by all of the students in universities30.

She is objective.DMany runners and gym members feel that music makes exercise more enjoyable. However, they might not know that scientists have found that some kinds of music can improve people’s energy by 15%. This was discovered by Costas Karageorghis at Brunel University’s School of Sport and Education in London. Karageorghis has worked with organizations like Nike and with many champion athletes. In the study, 30 people listened to inspiring music by Queen, the Red Hot Chili Peppers and Madonna. They did exercise at the same time.When they were doing exercise in time with the music, people showed higher energy levels. Even when they were doing very hard exercise, they were positive about how they felt. When people are doing exercise, their nerves send messages saying that their body is getting tired. However, when they are listeningto music at the same time, these messages are blocked. Karageorghis thinks this is because the music causes part of the brain to send different messages to the body that make it feel happy and relaxed.Karageorghis’ work shows that different types of music can have different effects on different people. The effect of some music can also depend on how tiring the exercise is. Karageorghis said that outgoing people prefer faster and louder kinds of music compared to reserved people. This is because, for the music to have an effect, the brains of outgoing people need more stimulation than the brains of reserved people. Reserved people want to feel less worried and so have better results when the music makes them feel relaxed.Karageorghis was asked to provide music fo r the “Run to the Beat” half marathon in the UK. “I have lots of other exciting projects that I am working on.” said Karageorghis. One of these is to find out if the speed of the music we listen to has an effect on our heart rate while we exercise.33. Why do people feel less tired when they exercise with music?A. Music makes people’s muscles relax.B. The brain blocks the part that sends messages.C. Positive messages instead of ones about feeling tired are sent to the body.D. Their nerves stop sending messages to the body in the process.34. According to Paragraph 3, which statement is TRUE?A. Reserved people do not want to be stimulated.B. Relaxing music worked better with reserved people.C. Outgoing people feel less worried about their lives thanreserved people.D. Louder, faster music had a better effect during exhausting exercise.35. The passage is mainly written ______.A. to recommend different types of music for different peopleB. to report on a study about how music can improve energy levelsC. to explore the different effects that different types of music have on peopleD. to describe our brains when we exercise while listening to musicZxxkCom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。

As It SeemsDoes “qaz2ws”strike you as a nice safe password?What about "adgimptw"?An analysis has found them to be among the passwords that are most ____31_____used,which of course means they are not secure at all.When ten million passwords were leaked to the internet,they appeared to ____32_____that attempts by internet security experts to make us improve our password strength had been successful,even,in the specific case of the leaked passwords,they were also completely pointless.While many of the passwords were still single words,such as “password”,there was also a clear attempt by many to make them harder to ____33_____.The problem was that people seemed to do so in the same way.“Users are becoming slightly more ____34_____of what makes a password strong,”explained WP Engine,an internet company that performed the analysis.“For instance,adding a number or two at the end of a text phrase.That makes it better,right?”But ____35_____no.They found that almost half a million passwords did this—and in 20per cent of those all people did was put the number "1"at the end.Perhaps this is why some companies are now trying to move gradually beyond passwords.Yahoo!is giving users the option to associate their mobile phone with an account,and have a single use password texted to it each time they want to ____36_____on.Although the service is voluntary,Dylan Casey,an executive at Yahoo!,said that it was “the first step to ____37_____passwords”.He said it was a(n)____38_____that it was increasingly hard for people to remember all the passwords they had.“I don’t think we,as an industry,have done a good enough job of putting ourselves in the shoes of the people using our products,”he said.It would certainly be a more sensible strategy than some people’s improving upon “password”by using “wasspord”or tran5p053d numb3r5f0r13tt3r5.“We are,for the most part,predictably ____39_____when it comes to choosing passwords,despite a decade of warnings from password strength checkers during sign-ups”,said WP Engine.“We love taking a(n)____40_____,and so do password crackers.”III.Reading Comprehension Section A A.acknowledgementB.actuallymonlyD.confirmE.consciousF.crackG.eliminateH.independentI.log J.shortcut K.unimaginativeDirections:For each blank in the following passages 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.Ever been just about to call someone when the phone rings and the person in question is on the other end?Or have you experienced a sudden feeling of unease or danger,even though you're in a(n)41situation?If you don’t believe in it,you’ll put it down to42and an overactive imagination.But some people believe it is43 that there is a sixth sense beyond smell,taste,touch,hearing and sight.Now,scientists are carrying out experiments not only to prove that it exists,but also to find out how you can44it to your advantage.Dean Radin,a researcher in California,has set up the Boundary Institute in Los Altos and is currently using its website to recruit(招募)4,000people in57countries to find out if there are any45instances of sixth sense or, as he calls it,"recognition"—the ability to predict outcomes.The results so far are46.In a card test,where you have to47which of the five cards on a computer screen will be turned over to reveal a picture,the top scorers hit the the right card48%of the time—48of this happening are2,669to1.49,Radin’s most famous study involves participants looking at a variety of image that are designed to stimulate a specific response.In the experiment,participants sit alone in room in front of a computer,with devices attached to their bodies to measure changes in skin resistance and blood flow,which are measures of emotional arousal.Radin has found that one in six people has a rise in arousal before they see the road accident-type pictures, while remaining50before the tree-type pictures.But even if you do accept that a sixth sense exists,the question is,does it actually51?Radin says it does.“The future of our civilization depends on52that are being made now,whether it's about how we farm our food, how we get rid of our waste or whether we allow chemicals to be included in everyday products.We don’t have answers to these important questions,yet what we decide on will53our lives for decades or longer.Anything we can do to improve our ability to predict future events is well worth the54.”He says.If it turns out that some people can genuinely forecast the future some of the time,as I believe the data shows,then55this ability is as important as cutting-edge science.41.A.unfamiliar B.tough C.harmless D.ridiculous42.A.coincidence B.resistance

B.challenging C.limiting D.understandingSection BDirections:Read the following three passages.Each passage is followed by several questions or unfinished statements.For each of them there are four choices marked A,B,C and D.Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage you have just read.(A)What happens in a particular class on a particular day depends on the interactions that occur between the teacher, the students,and the material being studied.The classroom context,generally speaking,includes all those factors that influence what happens during teaching and learning.These factors operate on different levels.The physical context,for example,influences what happens in the classroom.Space may restrict participation, depending on how a teacher interprets the situation,some teachers use their surroundings to promote learning.Noticeboards reflect themes or topics being studied;a display area presents students’written work for others to read.Of course,some teachers remain unaware of the physical environment of the classroom affects the nature and types of interactions that they and their students inhabit together.A room,after all,is just a room.Yet the physical environment of the classroom affects the nature and types of interactions that will occur.Straight rows of tables,for example,are favourable to classroom lectures and turn-taking routines in which students,one by one,recite answers to a teacher's questions.A room isn’t just a room for teachers who seek to make the physical environment suitable for interactive learning.Interactive learning invites thinking,reading,writing,speaking,listening and sharing.Such classrooms are arranged for individuals rather than for the “class”as a whole;they welcome students as active participants.Various physical arrangements encourage interactive learning,but they depend on the size of the room and the furniture that is available.A class can be organized for individual,group,or whole-class activities.Students are initially assigned seats at a combination of small and large tables.However,when the students work individually or in groups,they are free to abandon the assigned seating.The chalkboard occupies a central position in the room to accommodate whole-class study.56.According to the passage,“the physical context”(paragraph 2)may include_______.A.teachers'roles B.themes being studied C.a display area D.students’participation57.Which of the following is the most suitable for a classroom lecture?A. B.C. D.Discussion area 58.From the last paragraph,we can learn that_________________.A.classrooms should be arranged for the class as a whole B.the chalkboard should be abandoned during group work C.seating can be changed for different classroom activities D.interaction can be encouraged by combining small and large tables 59.What is the passage mainly about?A.The physical classroom environment varies with different types of interactions.B.The physical environment is a deciding factor for a successful lesson.C.Interactive learning depends on individuals’active involvement.D.Group work has become a trend in classroom teaching.Table Couch CouchSmall Table Chair(B)O＄15.00USD-85x11PaperO＄24.00USD-11x17PaperO＄30.00USD-13x19PaperO＄45.00USD-17x22PaperO＄95.00USD-24x30PaperO＄185.00USD-34x47PaperO＄70.00USD－17x22Exhibition CanvasO＄140.00USD-24x30Exhibition CanvasO＄275.00USD-36x50Exhibition CanvasO＄350.00USD-44x61Exhibition CanvasO＄80.00USD-85x11Framed(Black)O＄85.00USD-85x11Framed(Brown)O＄140.00USD-11x17Framed(Black)O＄150.00USD-11x17Framed(Brown)O＄215.00USD-17x22Framed(Black)O＄225.00USD-17x22Framed(Brown)A German travel poster showing the Imperial Castlein NurembergAdd to CartThis product ships for free(both in U.S.A.and overseas)Made in U.S.A.|Satisfaction GuaranteedChristmas Shipping DeadlinesDomestic orders placed by December20will arrive for ChristmasOverseas orders placed by December9will arrive for Christmas.Overnight orders placed by December22will arrive for Christmas for an additional fee.Framed orders(domestic or overseas)require additional time for delivery.About Our PaperWe use high-quality,acid-free papers or heavyweight Exhibition Gallery CanvasPaper SizesPaper sizes are in inches.If an image's dimensions(尺寸)don't exactly match the papers dimensions there will be a wider margin on the narrowest side.The long edge on prints34x47and larger will vary depending on the dimensions of the photo and may be longer than the size listed.Custom（定制的）FramesWe’ve partnered with Simply Framed to offer high-quality custom frames made in the USA.Please allow an additional3weeks for delivery.Frames come in black or brown wooden finish and include protective paperback finish,wall bumpers,hanging hardware+nails,hanging and care instructions.Frames arrive gift-wrapped in brown paper.Framed sales are final.60.If you want to order a17x22print of canvas with a black frame,how much are you expected to pay?A.$45.00USD.B.$70.00USD.C.$215.00USD.

The concern:that too much of warnings and horror stories—the cover of Julie Lythcott-Haims’bestseller How to Raise an Adult instructs moms and dads to avoid“the overparenting trap”—is discouraging parents from getting involved at all.“Yes,parents can be intruders,”says Marjorie Savage,a researcher in the University of Minnesota.“At the same time,there are increasing examples of parents refusing to step up when students genuinely need their family”At Hofstra University,for example,parents now ask embarrassedly about mental-health and campus-safety resources,as if bringing up those topics were forbidden,says Branka Kristie,who heads the family-outreach programs.And Savage recalls talking to a mom who kept quiet about her son’s signs of depression until right before he failed a semester.She did not want to“helicopter in.”That means colleges,which have spent the past decade learning to cope with parents who get too involved,now have a different problem.In recent years,hundreds of colleges have either launched or increased their parent offices, which serve as one-stop shops for moms and dads looking to make complaints,report problems and generally stay in touch.Much of this began,of course,because schools were forced to cope with a generation of students connected with their parents like never before.On average,they communicate22.1times per week,according to research from Barbara Hofer,a psychology professor at Middlebury College.That’s more than twice the rate of a decade ago,before almost every student had a smartphone.With some moms and dads thinking twice of contacting the school in the first place,some programs are being used to encourage a more balanced approach,often through email and other social media.Hofstra's Kristic advises parents to“be a guide,while granting that the student owns the journey.”That means asking questions,listening to answers,being patient and trusting kids to resolve their own problems.But if issues persist,or if a student is in serious mental or physical danger,it also means hopping in the chopper,at least for a little while.63.In paragraph3,parents of Hofstra University students are mentioned to_________.A.show that parents have gone to the other extreme of overparentingB.provide educators with a new understanding of overparentingC.give a further example of supportive overparentingD.place emphasis on the necessity of overparenting64.The phrase"hopping in the chopper"in the last paragraph refers to_________.A.having trust in kidsB.stepping in to solve kids problemsC.joining a family-outreach programD.turning to social media for help65.What can be inferred from the passage?A.Mental-health and campus-safety resources are forbidden topics among parentsB.How to Raise an Adult encourages parents to get engaged in family educationC.Overparenting is no longer a problem because of students’self-reliance.D.There was less student-parent communication in the past than today.66.Which of the following is the best title for the passage?A.Why Colleges Need Helicopter ParentsB.How to Improve parent-school RelationsC.Why Overparenting Is in QuestionD.How to Communicate More as ParentsSection CDirections:Read the following passage.Fill in each blank with a proper sentence given in the box.Each sentence can be used only once.Note that there are two more sentences than you need.A.The two types of comics are created in very different ways.B.But for people who love comic books,they can be a fantastic escape from the tough realities of modem life.C.They find it hard to understand why comic books appeal to so many people.ics have lost its charm in America.E.In Japan,the contrast couldn't be greater.F.Manga heroes look smaller,younger than all-conquering American heroes who have large muscles and lots of themed clothes.Japanese and American Comic Book HeroesTo some people,the idea of reading comic books seem childish._________67__________Comics are published globally,but Japanese and American versions dominate the market despite fact—or perhaps because—they differ in a number of ways._________68__________American comics are a group effort,beginning with the story-writing team and the artist who produces drawings of initial ideas.When these drafts are finalized,the outlines,dialogue,and color are added.Also,creators of comic superheroes sometimes sell their titles to other creative teams,who keep the superhero “alive”.This is in sharp contrast to manga（日本漫画)creators,who are often individual authors merely responsible for the storylines,dialogue,and artwork.When a manga creator decides to stop,so does the hero.Another difference is the appearance of the heroes._________69__________Also,manga heroes rarely look Japanese and the stories do not typically take place in a Japanese context.However,American comic heroes,despite their masks,are proudly American and are admired for their readiness to defend U.S.cities.Probably the biggest difference is the readership.Up until the1950s,American comic books were read by both children and adults,with poplar titles such as Superman selling as many as half a million copies per month.The arrival of TV,however,led to a decline in sales so that now the average reader of an American comic book is a teenage boy with an interest in superheroes._________70__________There manga sales are still booming,reachingas high as7billion dollars each year largely because readers range from young boys and girls up to middle-aged men and women.Manga for men and boys,like the American comics,tend to be action-oriented,while manga for women and girls tend to be focused on relationships.IV．Summary WritingDirections:Read the following passage.Summarize the main idea and the main point(s)of the passage in no more e your own words as far as possible.ShynessIf you suffer shyness,you are not alone.It is not surprising that social scientists are exploring its environmental causes.The first environmental cause of shyness many be a child’s home and family life.Today’s children are growing up smaller and smaller families,with fewer and fewer relatives living nearby.Growing up in homes in which both parents work full time,children may not have the socializing experience of frequent visits by neighbours and friends. Because of their lack of social skills,they may begin to feel shy when they start school.A second environmental cause of shyness in an individual may be one’s culture.In a large study conducted in Japan,57percent of participants rated themselves as shy.Researchers Lynne Henderson and Philip Zimbardo say,“One explanation is that in Japan,an individual’s performance success is credited externally to parents,grandparents, teachers,coaches,and others,while failure is entirely blamed on the person.”Therefore,Japanese learn not to take risks in public and rely instead on group-shared decisions.Technology may also pay a role.In the United States,the number of young people who report being shy has risen from40percent to50percent in recent years.Due to our huge advances in technology,watching television, playing video games,and surfing the Web have replaced recreational activities that involve social interaction for many young people.Adults,too,are becoming isolated as a result of technology.Face to face interaction with bank clerks,gas station attendants are no longer necessary because people can use machines to do their banking,fill their their gas tanks,and order goods.In short,they become shy.It appears that most people have experienced shyness at some time in their lives.Therefore,if you are shy,you have lots of company.If you suffer shyness,you are not alone.It is not surprising that social scientists are exploring its environmental causes.第II卷（共40分）V.TranslationDirections:Translate the following sentences into English,using the words given in the brackets.1.你没有必要在乎他人对你的评论.（care）2.大量阅读书籍有助于我们成长。
