all the arts，but owing to the ignorance of those whopractice it，and those who inconsiderately form a judgment of them，it is now far behind all the other arts．Their mistake appears to me to arise principally from the fact that there is no punishment for the practice of medicine except disgrace，and that does not hurt those who are familiar with it．Such persons are like the figures introduced in tragedies，for as they have the shape，and dress，and appearance of an actor，but are not actors，so also physicians are many in title but very few in reality．Whoever is to acquire a competent knowledge of medicine ought to proccess the following advantages：a natural character；instruction；a favorable position for the study；early tuition；love for labor；leisure．First of all，a natural talent is required，for Nature leads the way to what is most excellent；then instruction in the art takes place，which the student must try to adopt by reflection，becoming an early pupil in a place well adapted for instruction．He must also bring to the task a love of labor and perseverance to ensure the instruction takes root．Instruction in medicine is like the culture of the productions of the earth．For our natural character，is，as it were，the soil；the principals of our teacher are，as it were，the seed．Instruction in youth is like the planting of the seed in the ground at the proper season．Diligent study is like the cultivation of the fields；and it is time which passes on strength to all things and brings them to maturity．Having brought all these essentials to the study of medicine，and having acquired a true knowledge of it，we shall thus，in travelling around，be respected physicians not only in name but in reality．Inexperience is a bad trait，and does harm to those who possess it，nurturing either timidity or audacity（胆大安为）．For timidity reveals a want of powers，and audacity a lack of skill．Physicians who are eager for power or those who are undertrained are not a blessing to a community．Those things which are sacred or noble，are to be delivered only to sacred persons；and it is wrong to import them to the profane until they have been initiated in the mysteries of the science．（1）Based on paragraph 1，which of the following best characterizes bad physicians？A．They are greedy．B．They are pretenders．C．They are difficult to contact．D．They are the minority．（2）According to paragraph 2，what must accompany the personal quality of a physician？A．A good education．B．A supportive family．C．Approval from the authority．D．Popularity in the community．（3）If the author of the passage were to use a heading for each paragraph，which heading would fit best before paragraph 3？A．An Herbal Treatment．B．Medicine and Gardening．C．The Growth of a Physician．D．Understanding Agriculture First．（4）Based on the underlined sentences in paragraph 5，what is the relationship between the words "sacred" and "profane"？A．The two words are exactly the same in meaning．B．The two words are similar in meaning．C．The two words are of the same root．D．The two words are opposites．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.20．（8分）Help Migrant WorkersThere is nothing like going home．More so if it is for the Spring Festival family reunion．For a migrant worker it perhaps means even more．To be able to set out on a homeward journey with money from a year's toil in his pocket is the best thing he can think of．（1）．They had to press hard for their defaulted payments，the salaries that were failed to pay up．About 200 million migrant workers nationwide are something left behind by economic reforms and opening up due to their contributions in the past three decades．It is almost impossible to imagine life in these places without them．However，they still form a disadvantaged group．Their rights are violated in different forms．Among other things，unpaid salaries are the most painful of such violations that are likely to drive a migrant worker to desperate actions．（2）．（3）They have taken measures to prevent employers from holding back payments to them．Yet，as the financial crisis bites deep，some small enterprises that are struck the most try to reduce their economic losses by laying off migrant workers or refusing to pay them．So it is particularly important for governments at all levels to do an even better job in helping villager﹣turned﹣workers recover their unpaid salaries before the Spring Festival．It is good news that quite a number of local governments have organized special taskforces to conduct inspections in those labor﹣intensive enterprises to make sure they have paid their migrant workers in a timely and fair manner．Construction commissions in almost all provinces have published hotlines for farmer﹣turned﹣construction workers to lodge complaints against their employers for withholding their salaries．（4）．But we needto look for solutions that will work at all times．We need to put in place a mechanism that will effectively prevent employers from holding back salaries to workers．Ⅳ. Summary Writing.21．（10分）Directions：Read the following passage．Summarize the main idea and the main point （s）of the passage in no more than 60 words．Use your own words as far as possible．To Friend or UnfriendSocial networking makes it very easy to have friends ﹣lots and lots friends．Hundreds or millions of people have joined QQ，Wechat，and other sites so that they can communicate with friends online．However，the meaning of the word "friend" seems changed．In the past，a friend was someone you had a close personal relationship with．Now，anyone in the worldcan be your friend online! Some people have thousands of cyber friends，but what do you do if you don't want to have so many friends？Easy! You can dump an unwanted friend with just one click of your mouse．in recent years，it has become so common to get rid of friends in this way that there is a new word to describe it ﹣to "unfriend"．The new Oxford American Dictionary named it word of the Year in 2009 and defined it like this："to remove someone as a ‘friend' from social networking site"．But why would you want to do such a thing as unfriending someone？The most common reason for unfriending someone is to eliminate annoying people from your social life．For example，some friends post messages much too frequently，especially those messages found to be extremely boring．They endlessly post status updates which say something like "I'm cooking dinner" or "I'm doing homework"．Another reason for unfriending someone is disagreement about world issues．A third reason is to get rid of people who write dirty things on social websites．Although dumping friends is not just an Internet phenomenon，far more online friendships end suddenly than off﹣line ones．Even in this computer age，it remains true that many people prefer spending time together face﹣to face．After all，that's what friends are for!Ⅴ.

上海市2019年高考模拟7英语试题1
【题文】Directions: Read the following passage. Summarize the main idea and the main point (s) of the passage in no more than 60 words. Use your own -words as far as possible.China accounts for almost 22 percent of the world’s population and is one of the world’s largest and most rapidly growing economies. However, it has only 10 percent of the world’s total cultivated area and is having increasing difficulties in securing water for agricultural purposes.Despite population growing at an average rate of around one percent a year and its economy at around 9 percent a year since the early 1990s，China has so far maintained approximate self- sufficiency in agricultural products overall, in the sense that exports have been approximately matching imports. In fact, China has been the world’s fourth largest importer after the European Union, the United States and Japan.The ability of China's agriculture to keep pace with growing demand reflects a few key factors. Yield improvements have been achieved through more intensive use of inputs such as fertilizers, agricultural machinery and irrigation, and the introduction of advanced technologies in agricultural production.The Chinese government has had a policy of agricultural self-sufficiency. However, China's membership of the World Trade Organization (WTO) since 2001 could signal a greater preparedness to accept imports and embrace opportunities provided by export markets. Importantly, however, more than three decades of reforms have permitted the market to have a greater influence on what farmers are producing and selling. Reflecting these factors，China has been gradually shifting its agricultural production away from land intensive products，such as cereals, toward higher value, labor intensive products such as meat, fruit, vegetables, eggs, milk, fish and seafood. That is, China is producing more in line with its comparative advantage._______________________________________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________________________________ ________________________________________________【答案】China has fed the largest population in the world with its limited cultivated land and has maintained self-sufficiency. Some uses of inputs and advanced technologies have led to agricultural improvement. Since China joined WTO, it has imported more from other countries and it also has shifted its agricultural production from low value to higher value.【解析】【分析】这是一篇概要写作。

Dear brothers and sisters，As the annual Tree Planting Day is approaching, it once again reminds us of the environ-mental protection campaign._______________________________________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________________________【答案】As the annual Tree Planting day is approaching，it once again reminds us of the environmental protection campaign. Stepping into the 21st century, we are experiencing the rapid development of economy and technology. However, beneficial as it may seem, it also has cast a spotlight on the environmental problem, which is going from bad to worse. The polluted air, water and food are threatening people’s health, putting all the human beings on the edge of death.Therefore, it’s really high time that we took timely actions to protect our common homeland. Hereby, the Students’ Union appeals to all the students to spare no efforts to protect the environment, starting with some small things, not only for ourselves, but also for our offspring and others around us. Despite the fact that the current situation leaves much to be desired, we aren’t supposed to find excuses to show disregards for the environment and should remember: One more effort can make a difference!What’s more, with the view to responding to this c ampaign, our school has decided to organize the students to publicize the concept of environmental protection around the city next Saturday. The Students’ Union is recruiting participants these days. Whoever shows any interest can come and join us!Yours sincerely,Li HuaUniversity Students’ Union 【解析】【分析】这是一篇应用文写作。

Her long, straight black hair is hidden beneath her headscarf, but visible as it curls at her neck.We’re heading to Tajrish Bazaar, in north Tehran (capital of Iran)，to explore 10 different kinds of dried plums, and other goodies. We choose the Metro—Farah for its convenience, and I，for a chance to go underground in Tehran, because it provides a picture of the city most tourists never see.It's mid-morning. Women and men sit separately, but the rule relaxes during busy times, like now. We, along with a few other women, clasp our hands around a pole, standing next to men, young and old in the air-conditioned, modern carriage. Two stops later, and about 20 commuters fewer, segregation happens naturally -- women at one end, men at the other, still within view, but separate.A handful of fashionable girls admire their own reflections in the window. They wear tight leggings under their brightly coloured robes, pushing back headscarves and boundaries. We find seats next to a group of conservative women dressed in black cloaks called chador. They’re nothing like t he other women I have met, a sisterhood of outspoken opinions, most of them liberal. “We are a nation with one language,” Farah says, “divided in two—-traditional and modern. ” Farah tells me it all began, not with imports from the West, but with the 1979 revolution. A combination of access, education and a bad economy created a society where women now have independence, careers and husbands happy to help around the house with chores and children*56.

Word Runner is a software update that shows one word at a time, instead of words, sentences and paragraphs on one page.Amazon says Word Runner was developed to make reading faster. By seeing one word at a time on the screen, you will not lose your place on the page. It may help you to focus on what you are reading.Opinions about Word Runner are mixed. Carmen Blyth, Ph. D.， and a teacher of English as a Second Language (ESL), says Word Runner is not optimal reading.In the Ki ndle Forums at Amazon, a commenter called CB Retriever says, “Thanks，but that absolutely will not work for me as I too do lines and blocks of text at a time __ I think the last time I read word by word was back when I was learning to read. ”Len Edgerly, business journalist and host of The Kindle Chronicles podcast, had a chance to try out Word Runner. In his podcast, Edgerly said that Word Runner is “a dramatically different way to read”.BrakeYou can pause Word Runner by tapping the pause button, called Brake. Brake lets you move words forward and backward. You can go back and re-read words using Brake.AvailabilityAccording to Amazon, Word Runner will be available soon for some English-language books on the Kindle app for Android devices and on Fire tablets.Word Runner will work with select English-language Kindle books from Amazon sites inall countries, says an Amazon representative. Amazon has not yet said whether Word Runner will be coming to the Kindle app for iPhone and iPad.Dynamic PacingWor d Runner uses a feature called “Dynamic Pacing” to adjust the speed around complicated words. Dynamic Pacing automatically slows the speed of Word Runner for complicated words, punctuation, and paragraph breaks. It makes changes based on the natural rhythm of your reading.60. In CB Retriever’s opinion, _____________.A. Word Runner provides one with necessary information to understand what he is readingB. good readers can read four words at a timeC. Word Runner is not so practical for him as he reads lines and blocks of text at a timeD. Word Runner is “a dramatically different way to read”61. From the passage, we can draw the conclusion that ___________.A. Word Runner will soon be available for iPhone and iPadB. Word Runner will work with all English language books in all countriesC Word Runner is a software which updates one word at a timeD. people will soon be able to use Word Runner to read some English-language books on Android devices and Fire tablets62. “Dynamic Pacing” is designed to _________.A. regulate the speed of readingB. quicken the speed of reading something easyC. let you move words forward and backwardD. allow you to see all of the words on a page on your screen(C)Steve Jobs was 52 when he announced the iPhone. That was in 2007. Years later, the Apple co-founder introduced the MacBook Air, App Store and iPad. Tim Cook, who was 51 when he took over from Jobs, is building on his legacy. They both shattered a myth that the young rule the technology industry.Silicon Valley's ve nture capitalists speak openly of their bias toward the young. “People under 35 are the people who make change happen；people over 45 basically die in terms of new ideas,” Vinod Khosla, a prominent investor, said at a conference.The result of this bias is that older entrepreneurs often are ignored while younger entrepreneurs receive attention and funding. This is hurting the venture-capital system as well as Silicon Valley—because the stereotypes are flawed.Research on successful technology firms looked only at companies that had made it out of the garage and were making at least $ 1 million in profits. The research revealed that the average and medium age of their founders was 39. Twice as many were older than 50 as were younger than 25. And twice as many were older than 60 as were younger than 20. In a follow- up project, we studied the backgrounds of 549 successful entrepreneurs in 12 high-growth industries. The average and medium age of male founders in this group was 40，and a significant proportion were older than 50.There are lots of young founders in Silicon Valley, some of whom drop out of school to start their companies. The vast majority of these start-ups fail, however, because there is no substitute for experience and knowledge. These come with age.Young entrepreneurs surely have an advantage in social media and app building. They understand these new technologies better than their parents do because they have grown up using them. It is also easier to write code for a cellphone than to learn how to motivate and inspire employees, manage finances and market products. But building a business requires all of those skills. That is why older entrepreneurs have more success. As baby boomers become as familiar with Internet and mobile technologies as their children are，they surely will give the youngsters a run for their money. They also have greater buying power and a better understanding of the markets for the next generation of technologies.That is why we need to get beyond the stereotypes and realize that baby boomers are going to better the world.63. Which age group might the baby boomers belong to?A. Under 20.B. 20 to 30.C. 35 to 45.D. 55 to 65.64. From the passage, we can infer that ________.A. people in their 50s are absolutely unable to come up with new ideasB. the average and medium age of the founders of technology firms was 50C. some young founders in Silicon Valley quit school to start their companiesD. younger people tend to have a better understanding of the markets than old ones65. All the following statements explain why older entrepreneurs are more successful in building a business EXCEPT that _____.A. they are more experienced and knowledgeableB. they know how to motivate and inspire employees, manage finances and market productsC. they have greater buying power than younger onesD. they are more familiar with Internet and mobile technologies66. What is the passage mainly about?A. Why baby boomers are an important part of technology's future.B. Some Silicon Valley's venture capitalists speak openly of their bias toward the young.C. The young have an advantage in social media and app building than the old.D. The young rule the technology industry.Section C (8%)Directions ： 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.Environmental pollution kills 1. 7 million children under the age of five every year worldwide. This is according to the World Health Organization (WHO). The WHO warns that child deaths will increase greatly if pollution continues to worsen.The most common causes of death among children aged one month to five years are diarrhea, malaria and pneumonia. This is according to the WHO. (67) ____ This means providing access to safe water and sanitation, limiting exposure to dangerous chemicals, and improving waste management.(68) ____ The WHO estimates that air pollution is responsible for about 6. 5 million premature, or early, deaths every year. That number includes nearly 600, 000 deaths of children under age five. Most of these deaths take place in developing countries.Air pollution is a leveler between rich and poor, according to WHO environment and health chief Maria Neira. (69) ____ And one of the most important ways to reduce air pollution is to produce cleaner fuels for cooking and heating. “Almost half of the world population is using dirty fuels for cooking, heating, and lighting at home. And, this is affecting very much mothers who are staying and cooking at home, but the children who are around mothers -- they are exposed as well. ” Early exposure to harmful pollutants can lead to increased risk ofchronic respiratory disease, asthma, heart disease, stroke and cancer later in life.Cleaning up how the world cooks, heats and lights homes and other buildings is a big- picture goal. The WHO is advising government departments and industries such as construction and the health sector to work together to clean up their environment.(70) ____ The U. S. Environmental Protection Agency has the following suggestions：•Avoid walking where there is a high volume of vehicle traffic.•Equip homes with air filters and air conditioning units.•Limit your time outside if you live in an area that issues warnings about air quality.•Wear high-grade, rated face masks tightly to the face when air quality is poor.•Remove your clothes and wash immediately after entering your house if you live or commute in a very polluted area.IV. Summary Writing (10%)Directions： Read the following passage. Summarize the main idea and the main point is) of the passage in no more than 60 words. Use your own words as far as possible.Optimism and pessimism represent your general attitude toward certain situations or to life in general. And your attitude about life may be more important to living than you think.A new study suggests that people who are optimistic may live longer than those who are pessimistic. Researchers at Harvard Un iversity’s School of Public Health in Boston compared women with “a general expectation that good things will happen” to women who were less optimistic. They found that the optimists had a much lower risk of getting several deadly diseases, including cancer, heart disease, stroke, respiratory disease and certain types of infection.Eric Kim, one of the study leaders, says optimism is connected with healthier behaviors and healthier ways of dealing with difficulty. Optimists tend to take better care of themselves by exercising, eating healthy foods and getting enough sleep.When compared to the least optimistic women in the study, the optimistic women had：•an almost forty percent lower risk of dying from heart disease, stroke and respiratory disease• a fifty percent lower risk of dying from infection•and a sixteen percent lower risk of dying from cancerLeslie Ralph, a clinical psychologist and counselor at the University of Arizona in Tucson, has several ideas about how to increase optimism.She says each night plan to do two or three simple, enjoyable activities the next day, such as watching the sun rise, visiting a friend, dancing to a favorite song or reading a story with your child.She also suggests that if your day starts badly, simply close your eyes for a moment and take a deep breath. When you open your eyes, imagine your day has started over. It’s like having your own restart button.Offering praise or support to someone can also improve your own outlook. A smile and “thank you” from another person may help you feel more optimistic.V.

Somewhere between the ages of 3 and 8 though, a lot of children become shockingly skillful at telling lies. A group of 3-year-olds (21) ____ (seat) in a room and told not to peek at a toy placed out of sight while the adult left the room. When they were later asked if they had peeked, only about half of the kids attempted to lie. This was repeated with 7-year-olds, and the majority of the kids avoided telling the truth.At first, it is because they can (22) ____ children lie. They reach a point developmentally (23)____ they realize that they can say something that is not true. These lies are not a sign of moral failures in (24) ____ the parents or the child.By age 7 or 8. most children lie for two reasons. One is to escape punishment and to remain in your good graces. Children figure out that (25) ____ they say they did not do something, they may be able to avoid punishment. Older children are also better than the younger ones at reading human emotion and predicting your reaction. Since most of the children want to make theirparents happy, their lies may be a (26) ____ (misguide) attempt to provide the right answer. The kid who tells you that he did not break the vase, even in the presence of a broken vase，is just telling you what you want to hear. He knows you would be upset about the vase, so he makes up a lie to make you happy.Ironically, kids of strict parents are actually more likely to lie than (27) ____ from a more laid-back home. A child who knows that he gets spanked for doing wrong may feel motivated to lie more often and he may become more skilled at it, because he knows (28) ____ (catch) will lead to punishment.When it comes to telling the truth, when a child matures and ages you will see the lies become (29) ____ (frequent). This is a result of more mature kids learning responsibility and being accountable (30) ____ their actions. If your youngster is telling lies, don’t panic. He will most likely grow out of this stage with the help of his parents setting the right moral values. The experiment in this article was performed by parents and children.Section B (10%)Directions：Complete the following passage by using the -words in the box. Each word can only be used once. Note that there is one word more than you need.He fascinated Victorian England with his (31) ____ skill at cracking cases, based on astute (机敏的）logical reasoning and grasp of forensic science, not to mention a (32) ____ of disguises and encyclopedic knowledge of the criminal underclass.But this detective was not Sherlock Holmes but a real life investigator, Jerome Caminada, who, as a new research suggests, helped inspire Sir Arthur Conan Doyle's celebrated hero.A biography of Caminada reveals a series of (33) ____ similarities between him and the fictional character, in terms of their unorthodox methods and character. It also establishes strong (34) ____ between the real detective’s cases and plot lines used by Doyle. The author, Angela Buckley, has even established that Caminada’s casework involved (35) ____ an alluring (迷人的) and talented criminal, similar to Irene Adler, and that the detective even had a Moriarty-like nemesis who plagued him over the course of several cases until a final, dramatic confrontation. Mrs. Buckley said, “Caminada became a national figure at just t he time that Sherlock Holmes was being created. There are so many parallels that it is clear Doyle was using parts of this real (36) ____ for his. ”The son of an Italian father and Irish mother, Caminada was based in Manchester, but was involved in cases which took him across the country, and he enjoyed a nationwide profile in the press, where (37) ____ of his exploits were widely reported. Most of his career was spent with Manchester City Police Force although he later (38) ____，like Holmes, as a “consult ing detective”. As the fictional character relied on a network of underworld contacts-- the Baker Street Irregulars -- so Caminada was known for his extensive web of (39) ____ ，whom he wouldoften meet in the back pew of a church. These characters helped him build up an encyclopedic knowledge of the criminal fraternity, among whom he would often move in disguise—another tactic in common with Holmes. Like his fictional counterpart, Caminada was noted for his tendency to wander the streets of the roughest neighborhoods alone at night, (40) ____ intervening in any crimes he encountered.III.

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)Communication technologies are far from equal when it comes to conveying the truth. The first study to compare honesty across a range of communication media has found that people are twice as likely to tell lies in phone conversations as they are in emails. The fact that emails arc automatically recorded -- and can come back to haunt (困扰）you -- appears to be the key to the finding.Jeff Hancock of Cornell University in Ithaca, New York, asked 80 students to keep a communication diary for a week. In it they noted the number of conversations or email exchanges they had lasting more than 10 minutes, and confessed to how many lies they told. Hancock then worked out the number of lies per conversation for each medium. He found that lies made up 14 per cent of emails, 21 per cent of instant messages, 27 per cent of face-to-face interactions and an astonishing 37 per cent：of phone calls.His results to be presented at the conference on human-computer interaction in Vienna, Austria, in April，have surprised psychologists. Some expected emailers to be the biggest liars, reasoning that because deception makes people uncomfortable, the detachment (非直接接触）of emailing would make it easier to lie. Others expected people to lie more in face-to-face exchanges because we are most practiced at that form of communication.But Hancock says it is also crucial whether a conversation is being recorded and could be reread, and whether it occurs in real time. People appear to be afraid to lie when they know the communication could later be used to hold them to account, he says. This is why fewer lies appear in email than on the phone.People are also more likely to lie in real time—in an instant message or phone call, say—than if they have time to think of a response, says Hancock. He found many lies are spontaneous(脱口而出的）responses to an unexpected demand, such as：“Do you like my dress?”Hancock hopes his research will help companies work out the best ways for their employees to communicate. For instance, the phone might be the best medium for sales where employees are encouraged to stretch the truth. But, given his result, work assessment where honesty is a priority, might be best done using email.56. What does the phrase “to stretch the truth” in the last paragraph mean?A. to tell the truthB. to understate somethingC. to overestimate somethingD. to deceive people57. Why are people more honest when using email?A. Because it takes more time to think than to speak.B. Because lies in emails may do harm to their credit.C. Because of the detachment of emailing.D. Because they are practiced to be more honest in emailing.58. Which of the following is contrary to people’s common beliefs?A. Emails contain more lies than other communication media.B. Face-to-face communication contains more lies.C. Face-to-face communication contains more lies because it is not recorded.D. Deception makes people uncomfortable, which reduces mistakes in phone calls.59. What is Hancocks’ tips for communication?A. Honesty is always the best policy.B. Employees should choose suitable media for different communication purposes.C. If honesty is important, employees should choose face-to-face talk.D. Employees should be honest with their clients, their bosses and their rivals.(B)After walking miles of expo hall carpeting, watching countless live demos, and sitting through God knows how many press announcements, we're ready to declare these ten products to be the best things we saw at CES (国际消费电子展) 2017. Of all the amazing and beautiful gadgets on display here in Las Vegas, these are the products which exhibit the strong sense of innovation and vision within their categories. They achieve this through exquisite industrial design, innovative engineering, and simply seeing the future and realizing it in a product you can touch and hold. The following are three of the ten.CES is full of toys that promise to turn your kid into a coding wiz (编码奇才）.The issue? Not all of them are fun to play with. This week Lego introduced Boost, a new kit that lets kids bring their existing bricks to life with three different modules. You can program Lego to walk, roll, flash, and make noise via an app that uses drag and drop code. Kids probably won't notice they're building logic skills when they program their hot (自动程序；网上机器人）to shoot a dart at their sister when she walks by, and that's the point. It's a sneaky way to get kids to learn, which is exactly why they’ll love it.The Hub robot is adorable, but LG's animated voice assistant also provides a clear peak at the future of in-home interfaces. These devices run Alexa, but they do more than your averageEcho. A screen on the front doesn't just surface visual info like weather forecast, it provides personality：blinking eyes patiently await your commands. Ask for your favorite tunes, and the little robot busts a move as it plays them. You can customize the wake word to anything you'd like, and the big and mini versions of the robots have the exact same features. The only difference is the size of the screen and the power of their built-in speakers.Good speakers are furniture. They add to a room's decor, and they begged to be touched. The cylindrical Beoplay M5 is a wireless speaker that fits those criteria- its wool covering is soft and gorgeous, and it s topped by an aluminum disc that functions as a satisfyingly tactile volume knob. The sound is excellent, with impressive volume and gobs of bass. Audio streams in over Bluetooth. AirPlay, or Spotify, and it has Chromecast built in, so you can command the jams by talking to your Google Home. It’s not a portable speaker (it plugs into the wall and has no battery) but il is made for multi-room setups—-group a few M5s together, or pair them with other Beoplay multi-room speakers like the A6 and A9.60. Which of the following describes the common traits of these products?A. They represent the edge-cutting industrial design.B. They are all for entertainment and recreation.C. They are targeted at young people.D. They are available on the market now.61. What does the writer mean by saying “Good speakers are furniture”?A. Because they fit well in criteria.B. Because they plug into the wall without battery and make up for multi-room setups.C. Because they fit in with the decoration of the room and feel comfortable.D. Because they have excellent sound, impressive volume and gobs of bass.62. Which of the following is NOT true?A. It is painstaking to select the top ten gadgets among so many ingenious inventions.B. Beoplay M5 features wonderful looking, excellent sound quality and portability.C. The screen on the Hub robot provides visible information and personality.D. The new Lego kit Boost motivates kids to learn programming without their realization.(C)Until recently, the University of Kent prided itself on its friendly image. Not any more. Over the past few months it has been working hard, with the help of media consultants, to downplay its cozy reputation in favor of something more academic and serious.Kent is not alone in considering an image revamp (翻新). Changes to next year's funding regime (制度）are both forcing universities to justify charging students up to 9,000 in fees.Nowadays, universities putting much more of a focus on their brands and what their value propositions are. While in the past universities have often focused on students' social life and attractions of the university town in recruitment campaigns, they are now concentrating on more tangible attractions, such as employment prospects, engagement with industry, and lecturer contact hours, making clear exactly what students are going to get for their money.The problem for universities is that if those benefits fail to materialize, students notice. Thatworries Rob Behrens, chief executive of the Office of the Independent Adjudicator (OIA) , which deals with student complaints. “Universities need to be extremely careful that... they describe the reality of what's going to happen to students,”he says. “Because competition is going to get greater for attracting students，there is a danger that universities will go the extra mile.”One university told prospective engineering students they would be able to design a car and race it at Brands Hatch, which never happened, he says. “If universities spent as much money on handling complaints and appeals appropriately as they spend on marketing, they would do better at keeping students, and in the National Student Survey returns,” he says.Ongoing research by Heist tracking prospective 2012 students suggests that they are not only becoming more sophisticated in thinking about what they want from a university, but are also spending more time researching evidence to back up institutional claims.Hence the growing importance of the student survey and league tables. From next September, all institutions will also be expected to publish on their websites key information sets, allowing easier comparison between institutions—and between promises and reality—of student satisfaction levels, course information, and the types of jobs and salaries graduates go on to.As a result, it is hardly surprising that universities are beginning lo change the way they market themselves. While the best form of marketing for institutions is to be good at what they do, they also need to be clear about how they are different from others.And it is vital that once an institution claims to be particularly good at something, it must live up to it. The moment you position yourself, you become exposed because you have played your joker, and if you fail in that you are in trouble.63. What are universities putting their focus on to attract students?A. A friendly reputation.B. Student funding.C. Students' social life.D. Practical benefits.64. According to Behrens, which of the following may NOT be the conseque nces if students’complaints are not dealt well with?A. Universities may not be able to attract prospective students.B. Students will become more sophisticated.C. It will do harm to the reputation of the universities.D. Universities may not be able to keep students.65. Rob Behrens suggests universities do in marketing themselves EXCEPT _____.A. make high promises to attract studentsB. establish their own strengthsC. show graduates，career perspectiveD. show their feature courses66. What does the word “joker” refer to?A. A person who are good at communication.B. A thing that cannot be predicted.C. The best thing that people cannot afford to lose.D. A card that can be matched to any card.Section C (8%)Directions：Complete the following passage by using the sentences given below. Each sentenceSingapore is a small, flat, marshy island that has been developed to become the most important port and business center in Southeast Asia and one of the ten wealthiest countries in the world in terms of gross national product per capita.Singapore has a population of 3. 5 million people and a high density of more than 500 people per square kilometer. The superior infrastructure—especially the excellent port and international airport—has made Singapore the import and transshipment center for the region. (67) ____ These functions are complemented by a large variety of maritime service activities, including banking, insurance, communications, and consulting.Singapore has diversified its service sector to include a wider range of financial, communications, and management activities and has attracted the regional headquarters of many multinational corporations. (68) ____ This diversification, as well as high consumption levels in the domestic market, allowed Singapore to cope with the 1983 oil crisis and 1997 Asian financial crisis somewhat more easily than did other countries in the region.Singapore has a population of diverse ethnicity and religion, but it is dominated (77 percent) by overseas Chinese, descendants of immigrants who moved to Singapore in the colonial period and followed the religions of Buddhism and Taoism. Other groups include Malays (about 15 percent) and Indians (about 7 percent, mainly Hindu). (69) ____ The promotion is especially among the highly educated in order to reduce labor shortages and ensure a workforce to support the older population. Colonial Singapore was residentially segregated, with the British living next to the government buildings on the east shore of the Singapore River, Chinatown on the west riverbank, and Indian and Malay neighborhoods farther toward the east.The government has made serious attempts to foster harmony between ethnic groups and to create a sense of national identity by designating four official languages (Mandarin Chinese, English, Malay, and Indian Tamil). (70) ____ They also enforce Singapore’s image of a clean and crime-free environment through very strict rules against litter and graffiti, media censorship, and licensing of satellite dishes and street entertainers.IV. Summary Writing (10%)Direction：Read the following passage. Summarize the main idea and the main file of the passage in no more than 60 words. Use your own words as far as possible.Declining mental function is often seen as a problem of old age, but certain aspects of brain function actually begin their decline in young adulthood, a new study suggests.The study, which followed more than 2,000 healthy adults between the ages of 18 and 60，found that certain mental functions—including measures of abstract reasoning, mental speed and puzzle-solving—started to dull as early as age 27. Dips in memory, meanwhile, generally became apparent around age 37.On the other hand，indicators of a person’s acc umulated knowledge—like performance on tests of vocabulary and general knowledge—kept improving with age, according to the findings published in the journal Neurobiology of Aging. The results do not mean that young adults need to start worrying about their memories. Most people’s minds function al a high level even in their later years, according to researcher Timothy Salthouse.“These patterns suggest that some types of mental flexibility decrease relatively early in adulthood, but that the amount of knowledge one has, and the effectiveness of integrating it with one's abilities, may increase throughout all of adulthood if there are no diseases,” Salthouse said in a news release.The study included healthy, educated adults who took standard tests of memory, reasoning and perception at the outset and at some point over the next seven years. The tests are designed to detect subtle (细微的）changes in mental function, and involve solving puzzles, recalling words and details from stories, and identifying patterns in collections of letters and symbols. In general, Salthouse and his colleagues found, certain aspects of cognition (认知能力) generally started to decline in the late 20s to 30s. The findings shed light on normal age-related changes in mental function, which could aid in understanding the process of dementia (痴呆），according to the researchers.V.

The experts think that people tend to associate cost with quality and this changes their 32 of how food tastes.Scientists at Cornell University in New York studied the eating habits of 139 people enjoying an Italian buffet (自助餐) in a restaurant. The price of the food was set by the 33 at either $4 or $8 for the all-you-can-eat meal. Customers were asked to 34 how good the food tasted, the quality of the restaurant and to leave their names.The experiment 35 that the people who paid $8 for the food enjoyed their meal 11 percent more than those who ate the “cheaper” buffet. Interestingly those that paid for the $4 buffet said they felt guiltier about loading up their plates and felt that they 36 . However, the scientists said that both groups ate around the same quantity of food in total, according to the study 37 at the Experimental Biology meeting this week.Brian Wansink, a professor of 38 behaviour at the university, said: “We were fascinated to find that pricing has little impact on how much one eats, but a huge impact on how you 39 the experience.” He thinks that people enjoyed their food more as they associated cost with quality and that small changes to a restaurant can change how tasty people find their meals.In a(n) 40 study, scientists from the university showed that people who eat in dim lighting consume 175 less calories (卡路里) than people who eat in brightly lit areas.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.How Climate Change Affects Airline FlightsHot weather has forced dozens of commercial flights to be canceled at airports in the Southwest this summer. This flight-disturbing 41 is a warning sign. Climate change is projected to have far-reaching 42 —including sea level rise flooding cities and shifting weather patterns causing long-term declines in agricultural production. And there is evidence that it is beginning to affect the takeoff performance of commercial aircraft, with potential effects on airline 43 .National and global transportation systems and the economic activity they support have been designed for the climate in which it all developed. In the aviation (航空) industry, airports and aircraft are designed for the weather conditions experienced 44 . Because the climate is changing, even fundamental elements like airports and key economic parts like air transportation may need to be45 .As scientists focused on the impacts of climate change and extreme weather on human society and natural ecosystems around the world, our research has quantified how extreme heat associated with our warming climate may affect 46 around the world. We’ve found that major airports from New York to Dubai to Bangkok will see more frequent takeoff weight 47 in the coming decades due toincreasingly common hot temperatures, which can help reduce the aircraft’s weight so as to lower its required takeoff speed.There is obvious evidence that extreme events such as heat waves and coastal flooding are happening with greater frequency and intensity than just a few decades ago. And if we 48 to reduce greenhouse gas emissions significantly in the next few decades, the frequency and intensity of these extremes is projected to increase dramatically.The 49 on aviation may be widespread. Many airports are built near sea level, putting them at risk of more frequent 50 as oceans rise. The frequency and intensity of violent air movement may increase in some regions due to strengthening high-altitude (高海拔的) winds. Stronger winds would force airlines and pilots to change flight lengths and routings, potentially increasing fuel 51 .Many departments of the economy, including the aviation industry, have yet to seriously 52the effects of climate change. The sooner, the better: Both airport construction and aircraft design take decades, and have 53 effects. Today’s newest planes may well be flying in 40 or 50 years, and their 54 are being designed now. The earlier climate impacts are understood and appreciated, the more effective and less costly adaptations can be. Those adaptations may even include innovative ways to dramatically reduce climate-altering emissions across the aviation industry, which would help reduce the problem while also 55 it.41.

The usual response to the annual flu is not enough to fight against the risks we currently face, let alone prepare us for an even deadlier widespread flu that most experts agree will come in the future. Yes, we have an annual vaccine (疫苗), and everyone qualified should get it without question. The reality, however, is that less than half Americans get the flu vaccines. And the flu vaccines we have are only 60% effective in the best years and 10% effective in the worst years. We urgently need a much more effective flu vaccine.In the U.S. alone, seasonal flu can cause up to 36 million infections, three-quarters of a million hospitalizations and 56,000 deaths. We are not investing the resources needed to protect ourselves, our loved ones and our communities.Wh y not? We haven’t been hit by a truly destructive widespread disease in a long time. So as individuals, we let down our guard as our leaders quietly defund and destaff the services we need to protect us.The risk of continued foot dragging is huge. In a severe widespread disease, the U.S. health care system could be defeated in just weeks. Millions of people would be infected by the virus, and would die in the weeks and months following the initial outbreak.The cost of preventing epidemics (流行病) is roughly a tenth of what it costs to cope with them when they hit. In 2012, a call was issued for an annual billion-dollar U.S. commitment to the development of a universal flu vaccine. Six years later, the search for a universal vaccine remains seriously underfunded.The simple reason lies in our collective satisfaction. As soon as headlines about the flu are gone, hospitals are emptied of flu patients, and school and workplace absence rates decline, we go back to business as usual.Leading scientists and public health officials have the capability to keep us much safer from flu. They need your quick and decisive support to succeed. Your action today may be a matter of life and death for you and your loved ones.56. The problem of the current flu vaccines is that _____.A. they are not available every yearB. most Americans are not allowed to get themC. not everyone is qualified for themD. many people still catch flu after getting them57. What does the author mean by “continued foot dragging” in Para graph 4?A. Hospitals cannot meet the needs of patients during flu outbreaks.B. The leaders continue to drag the feet of the patients infected with flu.C. Individuals aren’t alert enough to the underinvestment in flu prevention.D. Flu will certainly become a severe widespread disease in the near future.58. What can be inferred from the passage?A. Science is currently not so developed as to keep us safer from flu.B. The death rate from flu is much higher than that from other diseases.C. The general public is partially to blame for the neglect of flu prevention.D. Developing a universal flu vaccine will cost more than dealing with flu.59. The author wrote the passage mainly to _____.A. teach people more effective ways to fight against fluB. call on people to take flu outbreaks far more seriouslyC. encourage medical scientists to develop more flu vaccinesD. urge the government to publicize the risks of widespread flu（B ）How to get your tax refundAt the storeGet a Global Blue Tax Free Form.

It is the first artwork created by an algorithm(算法) to beoffered for auction in the world of fine art.The odd-looking painting of a fictitious man in a dark coat left theauction block at Christie’s for $432,500 on Oct. 25 in New York City.The portrait—designed in the “Old Master” style of European fineartists from centuries ago—appears to represent a man with a vague face, dressed in clothing similar to that worn by people painted by the Dutch artist Rembrandt van Rijn in the 17th century.Of course, a computer didn’t automatically pick up a brush and become an artist. The AI tha t created the image had human programmers—a Parisian art collective called Obvious, Christie’s reported. Their cooperation, titled “Portrait of Edmond De Belamy,” is part of a series of paintings of the fictional Belamy family and was expected to fetch $7,000 to $10,000, according to Christie’s.To create the portrait, the Obvious team first fed the network a diet of 15,000 images painted between the 14th and 20th centuries, to train it to recognize visual elements in fine art, Obvious artist Hugo Caselles-Dupré told Christie’s. The algorithm that eventually created an original image had two parts that worked against each other, called the Generator (that makes the art) and a Discriminator (that tries to spot the difference between human-created and AI-created images), Caselles-Dupré explained; they called this AI “generative adversarial network” (GAN), Caselles-Dupré explained.GAN’s final image was then printed and framed, according to Obvious. At the bottom of the portrait is a mathematical formula (公式) representing the algorithm that created it, a nod to the relationship between the Generator and the Discriminator, Obvious artists wrote on the collective’s website.The goal of the painting and of Obvious, also co-founded by Hugo Caselles-Dupréand Gauthier Vernier, was to prove “artificial intelligence can do more than operate driverless cars or transform manufacturing—it can be creative,” Consumer News and Business Channel reported.Portraiture is a tough task for AI to take on, according to Christie’s, “s ince humans are highly accustomed to the curves and complexities of a face in a way that a machine cannot be.” This difficulty was part of Obvious’ thinking when they created the portrait.“Edmond de Belamy” is one of eleven AI paintings made by Obvious.63. It can be learned from the passage that the portrait “Edmond de Belamy” _____.A. was sold at an unexpectedly high priceB. was the first artwork sold at an auctionC. is a painting created by means of brushD. is a man who once appeared at the auction64. To create a portrait, AI needs to _____.A. learn from plenty of imagesB. use an algorithm with many partsC. work against human paintersD. recognize its human programmers65. What can be concluded from the passage?A. The mathematical formula at the bottom of the portrait is meaningless.B. The portrait was made to prove algorithms are able to imitate creativity.C. It is more difficult for AI to operate driverless cars than to paint a portrait.D. AI is better at painting the curves and complexities of a face than a human.66. The passage mainly tells us that _____.A. AI will soon replace man in some fieldsB. an AI-created portrait sells high at an auctionC. a proper algorithm is the key for AI to create artD. AI-created paintings are better received at auctionsSection 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.The smell of a new car can be appealing in showrooms, for which t here’s a good reason. That new car smell comes from a mixture of chemicals, some of which can be highly poisonous.67 Many of these contain volatile (挥发性的) organic compounds (VOCs), some of which can be deadly in sufficient quantities. Others are just bad for you.“It’s a chemical cocktail made up of lots of poisonous substances,” said Jeff Gearhart, Research Director of the Ecology Center in the US state of Michigan. The Ecology Center has been monitoring and testing chemical levels in the inside of the car for years, and has noted some improvement. But Gearhart says there is still work to be done.“There are over 200 chemical compounds found in vehicles,” he said. “Since these chemicals are not regulated, consumers have no way of knowing the dangers they face.”68 Immediate symptoms can range from a sore throat to headaches, dizziness, etc., depending on the sensitivity of an individual.According to the US Environmental Protection Agency, continued exposure to some of these can lead to reproductive impacts and damage to some organs and central nervous system—or even cancer.69The danger is the greatest when the car is new, and that new car smell is most noticeable. 70It is the release of chemical vapours, which leads to the smell. Heat from a vehicle left in the sun can make matters worse, and speed up the chemical reaction. The danger is reduced over time, and experts say the worst is usually over within about six months.Experts advise the best thing that buyers can do to limit exposure is to keep the inside of the car well ventilated(通风的), especially during the first six months of ownership. Park in the shade with the windows open when it’s safe to do so, or at least try to air it out before getting inside—especially on hot days.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.71.Take Care of Your Spine (脊柱)The spine stands at the center of your health, providing your body with structure and support. It also contains your spinal cord, a massive collection of nerves that sends electric signals from the rest of your body to your brain. Therefore, it’s important to take care of it.Maintaining your good posture is one of the most important things you can do to keep your spine healthy. Proper posture means standing or sitting while keeping your spine straight, except for its natural curves. Posture comes into play even when you’re asleep. Sleeping on your side puts less stress on your spine than most other positions. Having a comfortable bed is also very important as sleeping in a position that isn’t comfortable can leave your back feeling sore the next day.Exercise is also an important factor in the health of your spine. Staying still for too long—even if yourposture is good—can be hard on your back. Especially if you work at a desk most of the day, it’s important to get up and stretch periodically. Stretches can help the muscles around your spine relax and allow bones to shift into better positions. Strength exercises with light weights or bodyweight exercises like pushups can also help by strengthening the muscles around your spine. However, don’t overdo the exercise, as repeated motions can hurt the muscles around your spine.Your diet also affects the health of your spine because many vitamins are necessary for bones and nerves. In particular, B vitamins help keep nerves healthy, so you may want to consider taking a supplement (补充物). Another important factor is vitamin D, which is essential for strong bones, but it’s also absorbed from sunlight, so it may help to do some of those back exercises outside.V.

Fill in each blank with the word or phrase that best fits thecontext.“We didn’t really find a good role model of any country doing things sustainably,says Daniel O’Neill at the University of Leeds, UK. “We need to do things in acompletely different way if we are to have any hope of achieving a good life for allpeople on the planet.”O’Neill and his colleagues _____41____ each country’s sustainability by addingup how it used, produced or affected seven things. These were water, phosphorus,nitrogen, carbon dioxide emissions, landuse change, ecological footprint and material consumption.The team also used 11 measures to assess whether citizens had good lives.

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)olgograd, in the south of Russia, but inI loved most of the two years I’d spent in Vthose last few months Irealised that what made me enjoy it was partly the knowledgethat I’d soon be returning home, to the family and friends, and the milder weather London had to offer. The time I spent in V olgograd had been a real eye-opener as faras experiencing a different culture was concerned. When I first arrived, I was eager to make friends, and went out of my way to be polite wherever I could. Most of the time,my attempts to strike up conversation were met with icy stares and one-word replies. I started to think that Russians were a cold people, and I was unlikely to ever make any new friends.ry at the “I think you’re not having a good time here,” saidLudmilla, the secreta school where I was working. “You will come for dinner with my family on Sunday, I won’t take no for an answer.”WhenI turned up, flowers and wine in hand, I was enveloped in warm handshakes, inviting hugs, warm laughter and murmurs of(very pleased to meet you). The meal was eaten and a few toasts “ochenpriyatna” were drunk. Then I know Russians are actually warm, friendly people, but just too proud to wear their hearts on their sleeves with people they don’t know.Another thing I learnt about Russians is the way the men show their respect for women, both young and old. One day, I had a rather unfortunate incident on the bus. Iwas sitting there, deeply absorbed in the book I was reading, when I started to notice a quiet murmuring all around me. I looked around, and noticed how the people to myleft and behind me were looking across at me and whispering to each other. In front ofme was a young woman. Just when I was about to ask, in my broken Russian if something was wrong, a man in front of me got up and offered his seat to the young woman, whose face transformed in an instant to an angelic smile as she accepted, andsat down. My face turned red. I got off at the next stop and walked the extra six blocks home.Now, back in London, I had suddenly found myself in the same position. There Iwas on the bus, and a young woman got on. Looking round, I noticed with a panicthat there were no other seats free. Proud of what I learnt, I eagerly leapt to my feetand offered my seat. When she looked surprised and told me she was “OK, thanks”, I was ashamed. Once more, I got off early and walked. It was going to take a while toget back into the swing of things.56.

He received 2,300 reports each year, of which around 90% couldbe explained. For the other 10% he could find no explanation.Sighting AThe first call came from a police officer. He and his colleague had been on aroutine patrol the night before and had seen a UFO. The officer was often on duty atnight and was used to the sights and sounds of the darkness. B ut what he and hiscolleague had seen was like nothing they had come across before. This was noshooting star, no meteor. Two bright lights, with a third, fainter one, were flying inperfect formation across the sky. I questioned the officer carefully over the phone.From what he told me about their colour and movement, they were not aircraft lightsor fireballs. They were simply unidentifiable. As the morning wore on, the calls camethick and fast from other parts of the country. Most sightings had occurred between1:00 and 1:30 am with particular concentration at 1:10 am. One of the sightings wasfrom a man with vast experience of aeroplanes and mathematics. He had watched theobjects flying low over the coast and had timed their passage between two points onthe shoreline; he was able to calculate their speed at about 1,100 mph.Sighting BThere is usually a delay between a sighting and when a witness decides to contactsighting, things were rather moreIn the case of the “Capital” someone “official”.immediate. The call came from Capital Radio’s headquarters in London and the voicewas very excited. The caller was staring out of his window, giving me a commentaryon a UFO about to land in Regents Park. There was hysteria in his voice. “It’s almos down ... it looks a bit like—like a big kite, but it can’t be. It’s down! It’s down! Mwas a pause. The voice seemed lessGod, people are gathering around it ...”There, can it? Oh, the people are putting it back in a box. It is apanicked. “It can’t be a kitekite. Sorry for having wasted your time.” He hung up. Goodness knows how upset he had been in those few mad minutes. Goodness knows how embarrassed he is at thememory of it.60. What is the passage mainly about?A. The UFOs that Nick Pope has ever seen.B. The investigation that Nick Pope did into UFOs.C. The reports about the UFOs that Nick Pope received.D. The explanations that Nick Pope proposed about UFOs.61. What can be learned from Sighting A?A. The object’s colour was similar to fireballs but different from aircraft lights.B. The object flew less fast than other UFOs that people had witnessed.C. The two police officers had thought the object was a shooting star.D. 1:10 am was the time that the object was seen by most people.62. What conclusion can be drawn from Sighting B?A. The witness mistook what he saw for a UFO.B. The witness should have confirmed what he saw first.C. The witness felt excited even when he hung up the phone.D. The witness was in Regents Park when a UFO appeared.(C)A lone humpback whale travelled more than 9,800 kilometres from breedingareas in Brazil to those in Madagascar, setting a record for the longest mammalmigration ever documented.Humpback whales are known to have some of the longest migration distances ofall mammals, and this huge journey is about 400 kilometres farther than the previoushumpback record. The finding was made by Peter Stevick, a biologist at the Collegeof the Atlantic in Bar Harbor, Maine.The whale’s journey was unusual not only for its length，but also because i ttravelled across almost 90 degrees of longitudefrom west to east. Typically, humpbacks move in a north-south direction between cold feeding areas and warmbreeding grounds—and the longest journeys which have been recorded until nowhave been between breeding and feeding sites.The whale, a female, was first spotted off the coast of Brazil, where researchers photographed its tail fluke. Two years later, a tourist on a whale-watching boatsnapped a photo of the humpback near Madagascar.team used an extensive international To match the two sightings, Stevick’scatalogue of photographs of the undersides of tail flukes, which have distinctive markings. Researchers r outinely compare the markings in each new photograph tothose in the archive.The scientists then estimated the animal’s shortest possible route: an arc skirtingthe southern tip of South Africa and heading northeast towards Madagascar. The minimum distance is 9,800 kilometres, says Stevick, but this is likely to be an underestimate, because the whale probably took a detour to feed on krill in the Southern Ocean near Antarctica before reaching its destination.“Most h umpback-whale researchers focus on their efforts on the Northern Hemisphere because the Southern Ocean nearAntarctica is a tough environment and it is hard to get to,”explained Rochelle Constantine, who studies the ecology of humpback whales at the University of Auckland in New Zealand. But, for whales, oceans in the Southern Hemisphere are wider and easier to travel across, says Constantine. Scientists will probably observe more long-distance migrations in the Southern Hemisphere as satellite tracking becomes increasingly common, she adds.Daniel Palacios, an oceanographer a t the University of Hawaii at Manoa, says that the record- breaking journey could indicate that migration patterns are shifting as populations begin to recover from near-extinction and the population increases. B ut the reasons why the whale did not follow the usual migration routes remain a mystery. She could have been exploring new habitats, or simply have lost her way. “We generally think of humpback whales as very well studied, but then they surprise ussays. “Undoubtedly there are a lot of things we still with things like this,” Palaciosdon’t know about whale migration.”63. In what way was the whale’s journey considered unusual?A. It covered a long distance from west to east.B. A female whale rather than a male one completed it.C. The whale moved from its breeding ground to its feeding area.D. No one had ever spotted the whale other than at its destination.64. Why did the researchers compare the markings on tail flukes?A. There is a vast collection of such markings.B. The markings there last by far the longest.C. No two whales share the same markings.D. The markings are easiest to photograph.65. What can be inferred from the passage?A. More evidence should have been provided that the whale had ever arrived atMadagascar.B. South Hemisphere can provide more information about humpback whales’ migration.C. The whale’s actual route might well have been shorter than the scientists had estimated.urvive.D. North Hemisphere’s environment is becoming tougher for whales to s66. What is the passage mainly about?A. A female whale was spotted twice in the Southern Ocean.B. Research on whales’ migration has seen a breakthrough.C. Whales’migration routes vary with the climate change.D. A whale surprises researchers with her journey.Section CDirections:Complete the following passage b y using the sentences g iven below. Each sentence can be used only once. Note that there are two more sentences than you need.A. Most people didn’t watch, as there were only about 100television sets in Britain at that time.B. Besides, with his efforts, the idea inspired other inventors to go further.C. The first country to change from analogue to digital television was the USA inJune 2009.D. But not many people know that Vladimir Zworykin, a Russian inventor, invented the first “electronic” television in 1929.E. It was not until the late 20th century that TV became a household product.F. Technology started to develop faster and faster in the second half of the 20th century.Television—Past and FutureEveryone knows that Scotsman John Logie Baird invented the first television: inthe early 1920s, he made a basic television which transmitted pictures, but he didndevelop his idea further._______67_____. People often call him “the father of television”as his invention became the basis of all modern televisions.The BBC (the British Broadcasting Corporation) made its first TV programmes in1936._______68______. There were programmes for only two hours a day—except Sundays, w hen they didn’tshow any programmes at all! As well as news and sports, cookery programmes were popular even in the 1930s; Frenchman Marcel Boulestinbecame the first TV chef in 1937. The first TV advertisement, in 1941, was for aBulova clock: it lasted 20 seconds and the company paid just $9 to show it during abaseball game in New York. ______69______ Colour TV came to the USA in the1950s, to Japan in 1960 and to Europe and South America in the late 1960s and early1970s. Meanwhile, in 1967 people all over the world watched as The Beatles sang onthe programme Our World, the first-ever satellite TV programme. The world’s firstappearvideo recorders came from Japan in the mid-1970s, but DVD players didn’tuntil November 1996, also made by Japanese companies.From 2005, it became possible to watch TV on your mobile phone, thanks to 3G technology.____70______Canada and Japan did the same in 2011. People watched the first TV programme nearly 70 years ago. After the huge changes in television broadcasting inthe 20th century, who knows what the next 80 years will bring?IV. Summary WritingDirections:Read the following passage. S ummarize in no more than 60 words themain idea of the passage a nd how it is illustrated. Use your own words as far as possible.Reading the SignsMost experts agree that it only takes between 90 seconds and four minutes todecide what we think about someone. And in fact, 80% of the time, we reach a conclusion about someone based on body language, before that person has evenopened their mouth! Of course, what you say later will matter, and this is your responsibility. However, you do need to get the body language right straight away orpeople won’t stay around long enough to find out how fascinating you really are!originate from a specificor “no”,Many gestures, such as how you say “yes” country，but others are universal. For example, all people wrinkle their noses and raise their top lip to show dislike or criticism. Everyone knows what a smile is, too, and when you’re only pretend ing to smile. This is because muscles around the eyes are linked to the emotional part of your brain, so they only work when you really mean it.There are also signals to tell us whether someone is attracted to us. This preference is shown by enlarged pupils and they will blink more often. Admirers willalso mirror your behavior, often unconsciously. So if you lean forward or take a sip ofa drink, you will find that they will do the same. However, there is another gesture weare probably unaware of, but which is used by every culture on Earth and which some experts claim is the most instantly recognizable non-verbal human greeting. When we first see someone we find attractive, our eyebrows rise and fall and if they feel the same，they raise their eyebrows, t oo. It’s not surprising if you have never noticed this, since the whole process only lasts about a fifth of a second!However, don’t make judgments about people on just one thing! Look for at least four signals. Sitting with their arms crossed might look as if someone is being defensive, but it might really mean they’re feeling cold!V.
