He knewclearly (31) education could give people power and change their lives forthe better: Khanwent to a public high school (32) “a few classmates were fresh out of jail〞, as he told The NewYork Times, but he got into the Massachusetts Institute of Technology.He got Bachelor of Science degrees in mathematics, electrical engineering and computer science, and also got a Master of Business Administration degree from Harvard Business School. Khan then worked as asuccessful hedge-fund analyst (对冲基金分析师).It all began in 2019 (33) Khan began tutoring his cousins who were having difficulty with math. To make it easier to communicate with them, he decided to put the lessons online as a series of videos. His cousins quickly found that they preferred seeing Khan online.“(34) (have) a video lesson that they could pause and repeat made it easier to learn 〞commented Wired magazine, without tiring their tutor.He started to realize that the videos could help a lot more people and never grow old. He then quit his job, made more than 4,800 videos teaching math of all grades, put them online, and started Khan Academy in 2019.“My ideas about teaching were straightforward and deeply personal. I wanted to teach in the way I wished that I(35) (teach). I hoped to show the joy of learning, the excitement of understanding things about the universe. I wanted to pass along to students not only the logic but the beauty of math and science,〞he wrote in his book The One World Schoolhouse: Education Reimagined.The academy has become so popular across the world (36) celebrities and businesspeople are starting to offer donations, (37) (include) Microsoft founder Bill Gates. He has donated more than $9 million (about 57 million yuan) to the academy organization, reported Forbes.However, Khan doesn’t want to make money from it. “My goal is (38) (make) learningfaster for students of all ages. (39) so little effort on my own part, I can give a large number of people power for all time. I can’t think of a (40) (good) use of my time,〞Khan said in his TED talk. Section C 10%Directions: Complete the following passage by using the words in the box. Each word can only A pen has always been a(n)(41) tool when it comes to taking exams. However, in this digital age, this traditional tool may become a thing of the past.Cambridge University in Britain is considering ending 800 years of written exams and allowing students to use laptops or Ipads to take exams instead.The move comes after Cambridge teachers complained that student s’ handwriting is becoming toohard to recognize. The (42) in being able to write neatly could largelybe down to the(43) on laptops in lectures and elsewhere.“There has definitely been a(n)(44)trend. It is difficult for both the students and theexaminer as it is harder and harder to read these scripts," Sarah Pearsall, a senior lecturerat the university, told The Telegraph.As a result, more and more students with poor handwriting are being(45) to return to university during the summer holidays to read their answers aloud to university administratorsHowever, some (46) the move, fearing the handwritten word would become alost art. Tracy Trussell, a handwriting expert at the British Institute of Graphologists, (47) Cambridge to "make sure that students continue to write by hand, particularly in lectures". She told The Telegraph thatwriting by hand could help students improve their memory and understand lessons better.Meanwhile, there are also concerns that primary and secondary schools could follow Cambridge's exampleIn fact, a similar plan was carried out for some first- and second-year students at Edinburgh University in the UK in 2019, reported The Scotsman. Senior officials at the university believed it was(48) to expect students to use pens and paper during exams when most oftheir coursework was done using computers.The move also echoes the opinions of Harvard professor Eric Mazur, known as the father ofthe" flipped classroom(翻转课堂). He believes that the rise of mobile Internet(49) means that welive in an age in which we don’t need to memorize anything Students should be tested on theircreative and (50) skills, rather than the ability to remember information,he said during the Times Higher Education World Academic Summit in September.III. Reading ComprehensionSection A 15%Directions: For each blank in the following passage there are four words or phrases marked A, B,C and D. Fill in each blank with the word or phrase that best fits the context.If you studied pictures that ancient people left on rock walls and you tried to determine their meaning,you would not detect a deep interest in romance among the artists. 51 , you wouldsee plenty of animals with people running after them. Life for ancient people seemed to centeron hunting and gathering wild foods for meals.In modern times, when food is available in grocery stores, finding love is more 52 to people’s lives. The 53 is all around us. It is easy to prepare a list of modernstories having to do with love. An endless number of books and movies qualify as love stories in popular culture.Researchers are studying whether love, a highly valued emotional state, can be 54 . They ask, what is love? Toothpaste companies want us to think attraction is all about clean teeth,but clean teeth go only so far. Scientists wonder how much the brain gets involved. You have probably heard that opposites attract but that 55 attract, too. One thing is certain:The truth about love is not yet set in stone.First ImpressionTo help determine the 56 of attraction, researchers paired 164 college classmates andhad themtalk for 3, 6 or 10 minutes so they could get a sense of each other’s individuality. Then students were asked to 57 what kind of relationship they were likely to build withtheir partners. After nine weeks, they reported what happened.As it turned out, their 58 judgments often held true. Students seemed to 59 at an early stage who would best fit into their lives.The 60 KnowsScientists have also turned to nonhumans to increase understanding of attraction. M any animalsgiveoff pheromones—natural chemicals that can be detected by, and then can produce a response in, other animals of the same species. Pheromones can signal that an animal is either ready tofight or is feeling61 to partnerships. In contrast, humans do not seem to be as 62 as other animalsat detecting such chemicals. Smell, however, does seem to play a part in human attraction. Although we may not be aware ofchemicals like pheromones consciously, we give and receive loads of information through smellin everyinteraction with other people.Face ValueBeing fond of someone seems to have a number of factors, including seeing something wefindattractive. Researchers had people judge faces for 63 . The participants had 0.013 seconds to view each face, yet somehow they generally considered the images the same as peoplewho had more time to study the same faces. The way we 64 attractiveness seems to be somewhat automatic.When shown an attractive face and then words with good or bad associations, people respondedto65 words faster after viewing an attractive face. Seeing something attractive seems tocause happy thinking.Directions: Read the following three passages. Each passage is followed by several questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage you have just read.(A)Life can be so wonderful, full of adventure and joy. It can also be full of challenges, setbacks and heartbreaks. Whatever our circumstances, we generally still have dreams, hopes and desires—that little something more we want for ourselves and our loved ones. Yet knowing we can have more can also create a problem, because when we go to change the way we do things, up comethe old patterns and pitfalls that stopped us from seeking what we wanted in the first place.This tension between what we feel we can have and "what were seemingly able to have is the niggling suffering, the anxiety we feel. This is where we usually think it's easier to justgive up. But we're never meant to let go of the part of us that knows we can have more. The intelligence behind that knowing is us—the real us. It's the part that believes in life andits possibilities. If you drop that, you begin to feel a little "dead" inside because you're dropping "you".So, if we have this capability but somehow life seems to keep us stuck, how do we break these patterns? Decide on a new course and make one decision at a time. This is good advice for a new adventure orjust getting through today's challenges.While, deep down, we know we can do it, our mind—or the minds of those close to us—usually says we can't. That isn't a reason to stop, it's just the mind, that little man or woman on your shoulder, trying totalk you out of something again. It has done it many times before. It's all about starting simple and doing it now.Decide and act before overthinking. When you do this you may feel a little, or large, release from the jail of your mind and you'll be on your way.66. It can be inferred from the first two paragraphs that we should .A. slow down and live a simple lifeB. be careful when we choose to changeC. stick to our dreams under any circumstancesD. be content with what we already have67. Which of the following best explains the underlined part in the last paragraph?A. Escape from your punishment.B. Realization of your dreams.C. Freedom from your tension.D. Reduction of your expectations.68. What does the author intend to tell us?A. It's easier than we think to get what we want.B. It's important to learn to accept sufferings in life.C. It's impractical to change our wayof thinking.D. It's harder than we expect to follow a new course.The Mysterious IslandDiscover Your Island of Ideas!TIME For Kids has partnered with the creators of the film The Mysterious Island tointroduce creativity and imagination through the “Island of Ideas〞program.

In several of the studies, when stressed-out female rats had their ovaries (the female reproductive organs) removed, their chemical responses became equal to those of the males.Adding to a woman's increased dose of stress chemicals, are her increased “oppo rtunities〞 for stres s. “It's not necessarily that women don't cope as well. It's just that they have so much more to cope with,〞 says Dr. Yehuda. “Their capacity for tolerating stress may even be greater than men's,〞she observes, “It's just that they're dealing with so many more things that they become worn out from it more visibly and sooner.〞Dr. Yehuda notes another difference between the sexes. “I think that the kinds of things that womenare exposed to tend to be in more of a chronic of repeated nature. Men go to war and are exposed to combat stress. Men are exposed to more acts of random physical violence. The kinds of interpersonal violence that women are exposed to tend to be in domestic situations, by, unfortunately, patents of other family members, and they tend not to be one-shot deals. The wear-and-tear that occurs from these longer relationships can be quite devastating.〞Adeline Alvarez married at 18 and gave birth to a son, but was determined to finish college. “I struggled a lot to get the college degree. I was living in so much frustration that that was my escape to go to school, and get ahead and do better.〞 Later her marriage ended and she became a single mother: “It’s the hardest thing to take care of a teenager, have a job, pay the rent, pay the car payment, and pay the debt. I lived from paycheck to paycheck.Not everyone experiences the kinds of severe chronic stresses, Alvarez describes. But most women today are coping with a lot of obligations, with few breaks, and feeling the strain. Alvarez's experience demonstrates the importance of finding ways to diffuse stress before it threatens your health and your ability to function.63. Which of the following is true according to the first two paragraphs?A. Women are biologically more vulnerable to stress.B. Women are still suffering much stress caused by men.C. Women are more experienced than men in coping with stress.D. Men and women show different inclinations when faced with stress.64. Dr. Yehuda's research suggests that women .A. need extra doses of chemicals to handle stress.B. have limited capacity for tolerating stress.C. are more capable of avoiding stress.D. are exposed to more stress.65. According to Paragraph 4, the stress women confront tends to beA. domestic and temporary.B. irregular and violent.C. durable and frequent.D. trivial and random.66. Which of the following would be the best title for the text?A. Strain of Stress: No Way Out?B. Responses to Stress: Gender DifferenceC. Stress Analysis: What Chemicals SayD. Gender Inequality: Women Under Stress第II 卷〔25 分〕Grammar Filling 10%1. It was the facial recognition system (install) in security cameras that made it possible for the police (locate) the suspect.2.

My friend was waiting for me when my plane landed at Kennedy Airport at three o’clock in the afternoon. The weather was very cold and it was snowing, but I was too excited to mind. From the airport, my friend and I took a taxi to my hotel. On the way, I saw the skyline of Manhattan for the first time and I stared in astonishment at the famous skyscrapers and their man-made beauty. My friend helped me unpack at the hotel and then left me because he had to go back to work. He promised to return the next day.Shortly after my friend had left, I went to a restaurant near the hotel to get something to eat. Because I couldn’t speak a word of English, I couldn’t tell the waiter what I wanted. I was very upset and started to make some gestures, but the waiter didn’t understand me. Finally, I ordered the same thing the man at the next table was eating. After dinner, I started to walk along Broadway until I came to Times Square with its movie theatres, neon lights, and huge crowds of people. I did not feel tired, so I continued to walk around the city. I wanted to see everything on my first day. I knew it was impossible, but I wanted to try.When I returned to the hotel, I was exhausted, but I couldn’t sleep because I kept hearing the fire and police sirens during the night. I lay awake and thought about New York. It was a very big and interesting city with many tall buildings and big cars, and full of noise and busy people.

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

People, both in Japan and in America, dream of seeing this beautiful island in the middle of the Pacific Ocean. Their dreams always include the sunset over the ocean. The sun drops like a ball of golden fire into the sea, and it drops .so quickly that you can almost see it move. The sun leaves behind a glow(霞光) that lights the skies and shines in the quiet water.People often have a quiet, peaceful time while walking along the beach. The first strangers to these islands centuries ago were who came from Tahiti in canoes(独木舟) .Now no matter where the people come from, they reallywant to see the original(原始的) beauty of Hawaii.

Islands.B. A Magic Name.C. Travelling in Hawaii.D. Hawaii, the Dramatic Beauty.(B)Trees should only be pruned (修剪) when there is a good and clear reason for doing so and , the number of such reasons is small. Pruning involves the cutting away of overgrown andunwanted branches, and the inexperienced gardener can be encouraged by the thought that more damage results from doing it unnecessarily than from leaving the tree to grow in its own way.First, pruning may be done to make sure that trees have desired shape or size. The object may be to get a tree of the right height, and at the same time to help the growth of small side branches, which will thicken its appearance or give it a special shape. Secondly, pruning may be done to make the tree healthier. You may cut out diseased or dead wood, or branches that are rubbing against each other and thus cause wounds. The health of a tree may be encouraged by removing branches that are blocking up the center and so preventing the free movement of air.One result of pruning is that an open wound is left on the tree and this provides an easy entry for disease , but it is a wound that will heal (愈合). Often there is a race between the healing and the disease as to whether the tree will live or die, so that there is a period when the tree is at risk. It should be the aim of every gardener to reduce that risk of death as far as possible. It is importantto make the area, which has been pruned, smooth and clean, for healing will be slowed down by roughness. You should allow the cut surface to dry for a few hours and then paint it with one of the materials available from garden shops produced especially for this purpose. Pruning is usually done in winter , for then you can see the shape of the tree clearly without interference (妨碍) from the leaves and also it is very unlikely that the cuts you make will bleed. If this does happen, it is, of course, impossible to paint them properly .61.Pruning should be done to _____.A.make the tree grow taller.B.improve the shape of the tree.C.get rid of the small branches .D.make the small branches thicker.62.Trees become unhealthy if the gardener__________.A.allows too many branches to grow in the middleB. does not protect them from the windC. forces them to grow too quickly.D.damages some of the small side branches63.Why is a special material painted on the tree?A.T o make a wound smooth.B.To prevent disease entering a wound.C.to cover a rough surface.D.To help a wound to dry.64.What was the author’s purpose when writing this passage?A.T o give practical instruction for pruning a tree.B.To give a general description of pruning.C.T o explain how trees develop disease.D.To discuss different methods of pruning.(C)Examinations have a longer history in China than in any other country, yet it is today an issue。

Some parts were more fortified than others, being __42__ by stone segments that formed a “double-layered wall”.The Great Wall, from its starting point in the northwestern province of Gansu to Shanghaiguan Pass on the shores of Bohai Bay along China’s east coast, __43__ to span up to 3,700 miles through the north, which dynastic China’s emperors __44__ most vulnerable to attack.A series of dynasties built the Great Wall over the course of centuries to protect China from __45__ invasions. But the Ningxia region in particular long has been China’s front line and a place deemed worthy of special fortification(筑城).The freshly uncovered portion is near Great Wall sections built in __46__ was known as the Period of the Warning States (475 B.C.-221 B.C.) and the following Qin, Han, Sui and Ming dynasties.

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

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

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

We are used to getting up early to run.我们习惯于早起跑步。
The machine is used to remove the snow.这机器被用来除雪。

try Luckin Coffee’s new Moutai-flavored latte.She was curious about how her beloved coffee tastes with Chinese liquor in it,41to sample this“young people’s first sip of Moutai”,“The aroma of the alcohol is very strong and is well blended with the milk,”Lin told.The partnership between China’s top liquor maker Kweichow Moutai and domestic coffee chain Luckin Coffee has become both a hot topic and a moneymaker,selling5.42million cups and grossing(总共赚得)100million yuan just on Sept4,the product’s42date,China Daily reported.The coffee drink,43with an iconic Moutai-themed label and containing less than0.5percent(alcohol by volume)of53degrees Moutai,is priced at38 yuan,although consumers can get it for19yuan using coupons.“I44the spirit of innovation of the two brands,and the spirit is also shared by young people,”said Lin.In recent years,Moutai has embarked on various creative campaigns to45to younger customers,introducing products like Moutai ice cream,scented sachets(香囊)and canvas bags.“This partnership lets Moutai make its brand younger,”Li Honghui,a marketing director for drinks,also pointed out that such innovative cooperation can bring 46to both brands.“Through partnerships,brands can share resources,expand the market,and bring more diversified products to consumers,”Li said.In2023,China’s brand partnership market is47to surpass a scale of100billion yuan and is projected to approach300billion yuan by2025,according to China Quality Daily.However,flawed partnerships may lead to negative consequences.Take the collaboration between Chinese coffee chain Manner and French luxury brand Louis Vuitton(LV),for example.Consumers could get a free LV canvas bag by buying at least two books in the coffee shop.The two books would cost at least580yuan.The campaign was harshly criticized for the high barrier of48to receive the gift and many people doubted whether it was worth the price.Similarly,in July this year,milk tea brand Heytea and jewellery brand Chow Tai Fook jointly launched a peach-flavored drink,which was mocked by internet users as neither49nor tasty.They said that peaches had nothing to do with Chow Tai Fook,and that the drink was too sweet with not enough peaches.“It’s important to50 the high quality of the products in these partnerships rather than merely generate hype(炒作),”Li said.Ⅲ.Reading ComprehensionSection A(15’)Directions:For each blank in the following passage there are four words or phrases marked A,B,C and D.Fill in each blank with the word or phrase that best fits the context.The term‘dark tourism’is far newer than the practice,which long predates Pompeii’s emergence as a dark 51.Dr Philip Stone,perhaps the world’s leading academic expert on dark tourism,considers the Roman Coliseumto be one of the first dark tourist sites,where people travelled long distances to watch death as ter,until the late18th century,the appeal was52still in central London,where people paid money to sit in grandstands to watch mass hangings.Dealers would sell pies at the53,which was roughly where Marble Arch stands today.It was only in1996that‘dark tourism’entered the scholarly vocabulary when two academics in Glasgow54 it while looking at sites associated with the murder of John F.Kennedy.Those who study dark tourism identify plenty of55for the growing phenomenon,including raised awareness of it as a(n)56thing.Access to sites has also improved with the arrival of cheap57travel.It’s hard to imagine that the Auschwitz-Birkenau memorial and museum would now welcome more than two million visitors a year were it not for its58to Krakow’s international airport.Peter Hohenhaus,a widely travelled dark tourist based in Vienna,also59the broader rise in off-the-beaten track tourism,beyond the territory of popular guidebooks and TripAdvisor rankings.“A lot of people don’t want mainstream tourism and that often means engaging with places that have a more60 history than,say,a Roman ruin,”he says.“You go to Sarajevo(萨拉热窝)and most people remember the war being in the news so it feels closer to one’s own life story.”Auschwitz-Birkenau Marble ArchHohenhaus is also a fan of‘beauty in61’,the contemporary cultural movement in which urban ruins have become subject matter for expensive coffee-table books and a thousand Instagram accounts.The crossover(交叉风格)with death is clear.“I’ve always been drawn to62things,“the54-year-old says.Nevertheless,like any tourism,dark tourism at its best is educational,the example of Grenfell Tower(many“tourists”flooded to a London tower block,destroyed by a fire in2017with71deaths)hints at the63felt at some sites.“I remember the Lonely Planet Bluelist book had a chapter about dark tourism a while ago and one of the64was‘pay due respect’,”Hohenhaus says.“It’s big,it’s dramatic,it’s black and it’s a story you’ve followed in the news.I’ll be interested to see Grenfell Tower up close.I can see the attraction.But I would not stand in the street taking a selfie

D.panic64.A.limitations B.obstacles C.goals D.rules65.A.embarrassedly B.determinedly C.necessarily D.merrilySection B(22’)Directions:Read the following three passages.Each passage is followed by several questions or unfinished statements.For each of them there are four choices marked A,B,C and D.Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage you have read.(A)We lost another tree in our last storm,and it broke my heart.Thanks to the large amounts of rainfall here in the Pacific Northwest,tree roots don’t grow very deep or provide a strong anchor against the wind.We have lost many trees through the years,but this one was different.About17years ago,I joined the Arbor Day Foundation,and they sent me10Canadian blue spruce seedlings. Our property has many large Douglas firs,which are magnificent trees,but I wanted to add some variety.I planted my blue spruce seedlings along the driveway,and I did all I could to protect them.Shortly after that,a storm with gusts up to129km/h ripped through our area and took down many of our fir trees. My seedlings survived.But when we decided to join our neighbor in selling our downed trees to a logger,we had to move the seedlings to keep them from getting destroyed.Sadly,five of the10blue spruce trees didn’t survive being moved.Of the five that lived,three were in our front yard,where I could watch them grow into mature trees from my front window.When one of the big Douglas firs that towered over them died,we decided to cut it down before it fell.After much debate,my husband,Eldon,and my son-in-law Gary Parker decided they could drop it without hitting any of the blue spruce trees.I watched breathlessly as the drama unfolded,praying the whole time I heard the chainsaw.The fir fell right between two of them as planned,and my trees continued to grow.Then one night I was lying in bed during yet another windstorm and heard a loud noise,followed by the sound of a tree crashing down.The next morning I awoke to find the largest of our blue spruces lying on the ground;I was incredibly upset.For17years,I’d enjoyed watching it grow from a seedling to a tree nearly40feet(12.2meters)tall. Now it was gone!Losing my tree was hard to accept,even though I knew that it was nature’s way.I also knew there was only one thing I could do about it.Another10new seedlings recently arrived from the Arbor Day Foundation.I planted them in a safe spot close to the house.When they’re a little larger,I’ll transplant them to a permanent spot where I can watch them grow tall and beautiful.66.Why does the author share the fact that the tree lost in the last storm was“different”in the first paragraph?A.Mainly because it was a rare Canadian blue spruce.B.Mainly because it had survived many strong windstorms.C.Mainly because she had devoted a great deal of effort to protecting it.D.Mainly because the author once signed an agreement with the Foundation.67.The author has lost many trees mainly because________.A.most trees were too weak to protect themselves from the windstormB.many trees did not survive after being relocated to a permanent spotC.she plants trees along the driveway where the wind affects them greatlyD.the amount of rainfall there means tree roots can’t provide firm support68.Which of the following is TRUE?A.All the blue spruces were coincidentally uprooted in the last severe storm.B.The author’s family cut the fir to make room for the blue spruces around it.C.The author planned to sell blue spruces to a logger when they were mature.D.The author was worried that cutting the dead fir would hurt the blue spruces.69.What can we conclude from the last paragraph?A.The author couldn’t get over the fact that she had lost her blue spruces.B.The author wanted to fight against nature by planting more trees.C.The Arbor Day Foundation provides guidance about transplantation.D.The author is hopeful about the new blue spruces she has newly planted.(B)Your Day,Your

the fine arts to the outlook of a business group or a sports team.In its original sense,however,culture includes all identifying aspects of a racial group,nation,or empire:its physical environment,history,and traditions,its social rules and economic structure,and its religious beliefs and arts.The central beliefs and customs of a group are handed down from one generation to another.It is for this reason that most people regard culture as learned rather than innate.People acquire a culture because they are not born with one.The process by which a person develops a taste for regional foods,accented speech,or an outlook on the world over time,therefore,is known as enculturation(文化适应).Cultures are often identified by their symbols—images that are familiar and coated with meaning.Totem poles (图腾柱)carved with animals and creative figures suggest aspects of the Native American peoples of the Pacific Northwest but more literally represent specific tribes(部落).In Asia and India,the color of yellow is connected with temples while in ancient China it was a color only the emperor’s family was allowed to wear.Thus,different cultures may respond to a symbol quite differently.For example,to some a flag may represent pride,historical accomplishments,or ideals;to others,however,it can mean danger or oppression.To individuals unfamiliar with cultures outside their own,the beliefs,behaviors,and artistic expression of other groups can seem strange and even threatening.A society that ranks all other cultures against its own standards is considered to be ethnocentric(from the Greek ethnos,meaning“people,”and kentros,meaning“center”).A strongly ethnocentric society assumes also that what is different from its own culture is likely to be inferior and,possibly, wrong or evil.All people are ethnocentric to some degree,and some aspects of ethnocentrism,such as national pride,contribute to a well-functioning society.An appreciation for one’s own culture,however,does not prevent acceptance and respect for another culture.History documents the long-term vigour and success of multicultural groups in which people from numerous and various cultural backgrounds live and work together.Extreme ethnocentrism,in contrast,can lead to racism—the belief that it is race and racial origin that account for variations in human character or ability and that one’s own race is superior to all others.73.The underlined word“innate”in Paragraph2most probably means________.A.avoidableB.developedC.instinctiveD.managed74.According to the passage,the statement which is TRUE is________.A.Culture consists of some positive features of a racial group,nation or empireB.Different interpretations of a symbol help to distinguish one culture from anotherC.An ethnocentric country opens welcoming arms to cultures different from its ownD.People from various cultural backgrounds often reach an agreement on some image75.What can be inferred from the passage?A.All aspects of ethnocentrism can produce negative effects on a society.B.Respect and acceptance of different cultures are a proper cultural attitude.C.Racism is unlikely to bring about serious conflicts among different cultures.D.Countries with a strong sense of national pride play a superior role in the world.76.The most proper title of the passage might be________.A.Culture,a Faithful Mirror of HistoryB.Culture,the Origin of Racial SuperiorityC.Culture,the Vigor of World DevelopmentD.Culture,a Distinctive Identity of a NationSection C(8)Directions:Read the passage carefully.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.In many ways,our courage to imagine helps push back the boundaries of possibility.B.Therefore,as you can see evidenced by such examples,age has absolutely nothing to do with it.C.What’s even worse than restriction is that adults often underestimate kids’abilities.D.The reality,unfortunately,is a little different,and it has a lot to do with trust,or a lack of it.E.For better or worse,we kids aren’t held back as much when it comes to thinking about reasons why not to do things.F.But there’s a problem with this rosy picture of kids being so much better than adults.For kids like me,being called childish can be a frequent occurrence.Every time we make irrational demands or exhibit irresponsible behavior,we are called childish.Take a look at these events:imperialism,colonization,world wars,etc.Who’s responsible?Adults.What have kids done?Anne Frank touched millions with her powerful account of the Holocaust,Ruby Bridges helped to end segregation in the United States,and,most recently,Charlie Simpson helped to raise120,000pounds for Haiti on his little bike.77The traits the word childish addresses are seen so often in adults that we should delete this age-discriminatory word when it comes to criticizing behavior associated with irresponsibility and irrational thinking.Then again,who’s to say that certain types of irrational thinking aren’t exactly what the world needs?Maybe you’ve had grand plans before but stopped yourself,thinking,“That’s impossible,”or,“That costs too much,”or,“That won’t benefit me.”78Kids can be full of inspiring aspirations and hopeful thinking.Like my wish that no one went hungry or that everything were a free kind of utopia(不切实际的空想).Sometimes a knowledge of history and the past failures of utopian ideals can be a burden because you know that if everything were free,then the food stocks would become depleted and scarce and lead to chaos.But in order to make anything a reality,you have to dream about it first.79For instance,the Museum of Glass in Tacoma,Washington,has a program called Kids Design Glass, and kids draw their own ideas for glass art.The resident artists said they got some of their best ideas through the program because kids don’t think about the limitations of how hard it can be to blow glass into certain shapes;they just think of good ideas.Our inherent wisdom doesn’t have to be insiders’knowledge.Kids already do a lot of learning from adults,and we have a lot to share.I think that adults should start learning from kids.Learning between grownups and kids should be reciprocal(相互对等的).80If you don’t trust someone,you place restrictions on them.Adults seem to have a universally restrictive attitude towards kids from every“don’t do that,don’t do this”in the school handbook to。

The discovery could enable crops to be bred which are more adaptive to changes in climate conditions, such as water scarcity, and help ensure food security in the future.These findings, published in the journal Science, describe a new mechanism discovered by cooperating teams at the universities of Nottingham and Durham.Roots are critical for plants to acquire water and nutrients from the soil. Water is essential for plant growth, yet changing climatic conditions makes acquiring water from soil even more challenging. Plants are able to adapt to different soil moisture(湿润) conditions by altering their root architecture, but up until now, it was not understood how this is done.The researchers discovered that plant roots lacking a branching master gene were no longer able to branch out. They found that when roots are exposed to moisture, the certain gene remains active and promotes root branching, but when exposed to air, the gene is inactivated,blocking root branching.Professor Sadanandom explained: ''Plants are relatively immobile and therefore their growth is very much dependent on their environment. Our research has identified the particular protein which can inactivate root branching, therefore limiting plant growth and development." "This is hugely exciting as it opens up the possibility for us to help develop plants that could continue to branch roots even in challenging conditions such as water scarcity."Professor Bennett concluded:"Water is critical for plant growth, development and their survival. By studying how plant roots change their branching in response to water availability, we have uncovered a novel mechanism. This represents a major step forward and opens theway for breeders to develop new crops better adapted to climate change and helping deliver global food security."It is absolutely imperative to ensure food security worldwide. Crop production must doubleby 2050 to keep pace with global population growth. This target is even more challenging given the impact of climate change on water availability and the drive to reduce fertilizers to make agriculture become more environmentally sustainable. In both cases, developing crops with better ability to acquire water would provide a solution.(1)The findings of the research may have a positive effect on several global issues EXCEPT___ .A. solving water scarcityB. increasing crop productionC. preserving the agricultureD. ensuring food security(2)With the help of the findings, plants may be able to___ .A. branch out without a special geneB. grow in challenging conditionsC. alter inactivated rootsD. breed soluble nutrients(3)Which of the following is closest to the meaning of "imperative" in the last paragraph?___ A. fascinatingB. influentialC. enormousD. urgent(4)What is the new mechanism mentioned by Professor Bennett?___A. Why plants have different abilities to adapt to soil moisture conditions.B. How a branching master gene responds to a particular fertilizer.C. How plant roots alter their shape according to the soil moisture.D. How the particular protein inactivates root branching when exposed to water.33.(填空)Four Little-known European DestinationsEveryone's heard of Europe's major tourist destinations and rightly so - after all, Amsterdam, Berlin, Paris and Rome are all famous for a reason. But there are still numerous cities and regions that aren't even mentioned on typical European "to--do" lists. The following destinations offer a perfect reason to step slightly off the beaten track.Innsbruck, AustriaBuried at the foot of the towering Alps, the Austrian city of Innsbruck offers guests a chance to appreciate a blend of old and new. The old town dates back over 800 years, and provides a glimpse at Medieval life in the region, while the modern Home of the Giant, a massive center of arts, entertainment and shopping, is the largest of its kind in the world. Within the center is the stunning Swarovskio Crystal Cloud. During winter months, tourists can participate in various alpine activities. Skiing, snowboarding and many other sports are offered on the nearby slopes;during summer, the area provides a perfect site for rock climbing and hiking. Nature lovers can visit the Alpine Zoo, while history lovers can get lost in the many museums and galleries the town has to offer.Tallinn, EstoniaLocated in Estonia and rarely featured as a must-see destination, Tallinn, nonetheless, offers a fascinating chance to relive history in one of Europe's lesser-visited nations. A vibrant city that frequently hosts festivals of various genres, Tallinn is home to the expansive Kumu Art Museum, which has got both classic and contemporary pieces, and the Open Air Museum, a recreated historic village complete with staff in ancient costumes. To add a brilliant final touch to the Estonian experience, visitors should listen for the haunting sounds of the organ from one of the many churches around the city.Cinque Terre, ItalyA UNESCO World Heritage Site since 1997, the villages of Cinque Terre have a range of activities for everyone. Outdoor enthusiasts can opt to dive or snorkel(潜水) in the marine park, and anyone chasing nature can watch the birdlife in the Riomaggiore's Torre Guardiola. Manarola is famous for producing Sciacchetra wine, and another village, Vernazza, is known for its cobbled(铺有鹅卵石的) street and various laneways. Vernazza is also home to the Gothic-Ligurian church, which was built in 1318.Zadar, CroatiaFull of creative architecture and full of history, the city of Zadar in Croatia continues to fascinate visitors year after year. The famous Wide Street, which is even older than the city itself is a reminder of the Roman influence on the area. The Museum of Ancient Glass has a vast collection of Roman glassware from the commanding 19th-century Cosmacendi Palace.(1)What's the purpose of the passage?___A. To explain why the four places are "off the beaten track".B. To compare the four places with Europe's major tourist destinations.C.

Cinque Terre provides an access to exciting outdoor activities and relaxing cultural tour. D. The Wide Street reflects the Roman influence on the city of Zadar for it's even older than the city itself.(3)Mr. Smith is a nature lover keen on various activities while Mrs. Smith is a religious person eager to visit beautiful churches. Which of the following places do you suggest to the couple for a holiday?___A. Innsbruck, AustriaB. Tallinn, EstoniaC. Cinque Terre, ItalyD. Zadar, Croatia34.(填空)The Fertile Rainforest Soils in AmazonLow-level slash-and-burn(刀耕火种) farming doesn't harm rainforest. On the contrary, it helps farmers and improves forest soils. This is the unorthodox(非正统的) view of a German soil scientist who has shown that burnt clearings in the Amazon, dating back more than 1,000 years, helped create patches of rich, fertile soil that farmers still benefit from today.Most rainforest soils are thin and poor because they lack minerals and because the heat and heavy rainfall destroy most organic matter in the soils within four years of it reaching the forest floor. It means topsoil contains few of the ingredients needed for long-term successful farming. But Bruno Glaser, a soil scientist of the University of Bayreuth, has studied unexpectedpatches of fertile soils in the central Amazon. These soils contain lots of organic matter.Glaser has shown that most of this fertile organic matter comes from "black carbon", the organic particles from camp fires and charred(烧焦的) wood left over from thousands of years of slash-and-burn farming. "The soils, known as Terra Preta, contained up to 70 times more black carbon than the surrounding soil," says Glaser.Unburnt vegetation rots quickly but black carbon persists in the soil for many centuries. Radiocarbon dating shows that the charred wood in Terra Preta soils is typically more than 1,000 years old."Slash-and-burn farming can be good for soils provided it doesn't completely burn all the vegetation, and leaves behind charred wood," says Glaser. ''It can be better than manure(粪肥). Burning the forest just once can leave behind enough black carbon to keep the soil fertile for thousands of years. And rainforests easily regrow after small-scale clearing. Contrary to the conventional view that human activities damage the environment," Glaser says:"Black carbon combined with human waste is responsible for the richness of Terra Preta soils."Terra Preta soils turn up in large patches all over the Amazon, where they are highly prized by farmers. All the patches fall within 500 square kilometers in the central Amazon. Glaser says the widespread presence of pottery confirms the soil's human origins. The findings add weight to the theory that large areas of the Amazon have recovered so well from past periods of agricultural use that the regrowth has been mistaken by generations of biologists for "virgin" forest.During the past decade, researchers have discovered hundreds of large earth works deep in the jungle. They are up to 20 meters high and cover up to a square kilometer. Glaser claims that these earth works, built between AD 400 and 1400, were at the heart of urban civilizations. Now it seems the richness of the Terra Preta soils may explain how such civilizations managed to feed themselves.(1)According to the passage, it is generally believed that___ .A. slash-and-burn farming betters the forest soilsB. slash-and-burn farming reduces the black carbon in the soilsC. slash-and-burn framing does harm to the forest soilsD. slash-and-burn farming damages the minerals in the soils(2)Why are most rainforest soils thin and poor?___A. The topsoil contains a relatively small number of the ingredients.B. Most organic matter is missing because of the heat and heavy rain.C. A majority part of soils are likely to be washed away by heavy rain.D. Black carbon and human waste negatively impact the soil to a great extent.(3)Glaser claims that rainforests will recover___ .A. when the vegetation is burnt completelyB. if there is no slash-and-burn farmingC. at a slow rate after small-scale burningD. readily after small-scale burning(4)Which of the following statement is probably true according to the passage?___A. Amazon rainforest soils used to be the richest in the world.B. Human activities will do great damage to rainforests.C. There once existed an urban civilization in the Amazon rainforests.D. Farming is responsible for the destruction of the Amazon rainforests.35.(填空)Certainly, US monetary policy___ (intend) to address both financial and economic issues in the US.36.(填空)My sister said she heard Jerry___ (sing) a song of Jay Chou at the singing competition and won the first prize.37.(填空)While gingko trees can live for a long time, they are not even near___ (be) the oldest trees.38.(填空)These are the doctors___ (send) to the war-torn area for the relief effort next week.39.(填空)The department manager was unemployed after___ (accuse) of taking the company belongings for himself.40.(填空)Angkor Wat the pride of Cambodia, is believed___ (discover) again in 1858.41.(填空)___ (find) some leisure time to take a boat trip, and you will be attracted by the beautiful scenery along the Li River.42.(填空)In 2015, an unknown Chinese scientist at Sun Yat-Sen University was the first one___ (edit) the DNA of human embryos(胚胎), which caused a great controversy.43.(填空)The path___ (蜿蜒曲折) through the mountains.44.(填空)___ (说到恶性循环) that the country has fallen into, we must take measures to stop it.45.(填空)When she was preparing for the presentation, she___ (她收集了一些关于这座体育场的信息).46.(填空)___ (创造力是因人而异的), so we shouldn't ask every member of the team to come up with brilliant new ideas.47.(填空)For its protection,___ (admit 每天只有一百名游客允许进入) the old house.48.(填空)Those officials believe that___ (accessible 有些决策不应该让公众知晓).49.(填空)The children___ (leave 把他们的衣服挂在门边) and ran to play football on the playground.50.(填空)After enjoying the main course, they___ (round 用节日的特色菜来结束这顿晚餐).51.(填空)政府要求博物馆的装修在年底前完成.(demand)___52.(填空)关于如何画好一幅山水画,她终于想到了一个不错的点子.(take shape)___53.(填空)从远处看,这栋雄伟的建筑物像一座有着悠久历史的宫殿一般.(see)___54.(填空)这件文物代表着西藏文明,这就是它出现在这本旅游手册上的原因.(reason)___。

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

A. emotions B. attractiveness C. individuality D. signals64. A. enhance B. possess C. maintain D. assess65. A. familiar B. plain C. positive D. insultingSection B 20%Directions:Read the following three passages. Each passage is followed by several questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage you have just read.(A)Life can be so wonderful, full of adventure and joy. It can also be full of challenges, setbacks and heartbreaks. Whatever our circumstances, we generally still have dreams, hopes and desires—that little something more we want for ourselves and our loved ones. Yet knowing we can have more can also create a problem, because when we go to change the way we do things, up come the old patterns and pitfalls that stopped us from seeking what we wanted in the first place.This tension between what we feel we can have and "what were seemingly able to have is the niggling suffering, the anxiety we feel. This is where we usually think it's easier to just give up. But we're never meant to let go of the part of us that knows we can have more. The intelligence behind that knowing is us—the real us. It's the part that believes in life and its possibilities. If you drop that, you begin to feel a little "dead" inside because you're dropping "you".So, if we have this capability but somehow life seems to keep us stuck, how do we break these patterns?Decide on a new course and make one decision at a time. This is good advice for a new adventure orjust getting through today's challenges.While, deep down, we know we can do it, our mind—or the minds of those close to us—usually says we can't. That isn't a reason to stop, it's just the mind, that little man or woman on your shoulder, trying to talk you out of something again. It has done it many times before. It's all about starting simple and doing it now.Decide and act before overthinking. When you do this you may feel a little, or large, release from the jail of your mind and you'll be on your way.66. It can be inferred from the first two paragraphs that we should ____________ .A. slow down and live a simple lifeB. be careful when we choose to changeC. stick to our dreams under any circumstancesD. be content with what we already have67. Which of the following best explains the underlined part in the last paragraph?A. Escape from your punishment.B. Realization of your dreams.C. Freedom from your tension.D. Reduction of your expectations.68. What does the author intend to tell us?A. It's easier than we think to get what we want.B. It's important to learn to accept sufferings in life.C. It's impractical to change our way of thinking.D. It's harder than we expect to follow a new course.A. show students the inspiring lives of historic figuresB. make the world a better place for teachers and studentsC. provide teachers with some useful materials and informationD. help students know that ordinary people can change the world70. What’s the chief purpose of the magazine Ultimate Spiderman?A. To encourage kids to learn about facts of interesting real-life spiders.B. To activate kids to become everyday heroes in real life.C. To tell interesting tidbits about the creation and evolution of Spider-Man.D. To solve a challenging “Spider-Cycle” maze and uncover a mystery cl ue.71. Which of the following statements is NOT true?A. Mysterious Island is a film made by TIME For Kids and its partner.B. The “Island of Ideas” program aims to cultivate creativity and imagination.C. Teacher’s Guide includes students’ disc ussions, activities and reproducible.D. Ultimate Mysterious X encourages students to uncover the treasure of ideas.(C)While still catching up to men in some sphere of modern life, women appear to be way ahead in at least one undesirable category. “Women are particularly susceptible to developing depression and anxiety disorders in response to stress compared to men,” according to Dr. Yehuda, chief psychologist at New York's Veteran’s Administration Hospital.Studies of both animals and humans have shown that sex hormones somehow affect the stress response, causing females under stress to produce more of the trigger chemicals than do males under the same conditions. In several of the studies, when stressed-out female rats had their ovaries (the female reproductive organs) removed, their chemical responses became equal to those of the males.Adding to a woman's increased dose of stress chemicals, are her increased “opportunities” for stress. “It's not necessarily that women don't cope as well. It's just that they have so much more to cope with,” says Dr. Yehuda. “Their capacity for tolerating stress may even be greater than men's,” she observes, “It's just that they're dealing with so many more things that they become worn out from it more visibly and sooner.”Dr. Yehuda notes another difference between the sexes. “I think that the kinds of things that women are exposed to tend to be in more of a chronic of repeated nature. Men go to war and are exposed to combat stress. Men are exposed to more acts of random physical violence. The kinds of interpersonal violence that women are exposed to tend to be in domestic situations, by, unfortunately, patents of other family members, and they tend not to be one-shot deals. The wear-and-tear that occurs from these longer relationships can be quite devastating.”Adeline Alvarez married at 18 and gave birth to a son, but was determined to finish college. “I struggled a lot to get the college degree. I was living in so much frustration that that was my escape to go to school, and get ahead and do better.” Later her marriage ended and she became a single mother: “It’s the hardest thing to take care of a teenager, have a job, pay the rent, pay the car payment, and pay the debt. I lived from paycheck to paycheck.Not everyone experiences the kinds of severe chronic stresses, Alvarez describes. But most women today are coping with a lot of obligations, with few breaks, and feeling the strain. Alvarez's experience demonstrates the importance of finding ways to diffuse stress before it threatens your health and your ability to function.63. Which of the following is true according to the first two paragraphs?A. Women are biologically more vulnerable to stress.B. Women are still suffering much stress caused by men.C. Women are more experienced than men in coping with stress.D. Men and women show different inclinations when faced with stress.64. Dr. Yehuda's research suggests that women_____________________.A. need extra doses of chemicals to handle stress.B. have limited capacity for tolerating stress.C. are more capable of avoiding stress.D. are exposed to more stress.65. According to Paragraph 4, the stress women confront tends to beA. domestic and temporary.B. irregular and violent.C. durable and frequent.D. trivial and random.66. Which of the following would be the best title for the text?A. Strain of Stress: No Way Out?B. Responses to Stress: Gender DifferenceC. Stress Analysis: What Chemicals SayD.

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