Rosa didn’t li ke her job at the factory, but it was better than no job at all. So,while she was trying not to think about work, she saw the pots in an alley. They were cheap plastic pots, but there were dozens of them piled up behind the flower shop. Such a waste, she thought. When the pots were still there three days later, Rosa went in and asked if she could take some. The flower shop lady said she didn’t mind, so Rosa carried home a tower of pots, pretending she was a circus performer on the way.At home, Rosa set them on the fire escape outside her tiny apartment. And there they sat. Once a gust of wind sent them slipping to the street three floors below, and she had to go to run after and catch them before the gathering storm.Every day, Rosa went to work and thought about her pots- She was wailing for something, but she had patience.At last, the newspaper brought good news. A hardware store had a sale on potting soil. Rosa carefully counted her money, then walked six blocks to the store. She bought six bags and carried them home. She bought seeds, too. Rosa slept well that night and dreamed of masses of flowers and fat, glowing fruits,Sundays were always good days. Rosa didn’t have to work on Sundays. But Rosa couldn’t remember when she had had such a good Sund ay. She got up early and ate her breakfast on the fire escape with her pots. Then, she began to put dirt into the pots. She sang a little song until all six of her bags of soil were empty. Then, she laid her precious seed packets out and planned her garden. Tomatoes for the biggest pots, and peppers for the next-biggest ones.Flowers in all the rest.At the end of the day, Rosa sat in her garden and watched the sunset. Soon, she thought, there will be masses of flowers and fat, glowing fruits.（1）Why did Rosa wail 3 days before she asked about the pots?A . She didn’t like the pots at first.B .

After all, apart from using expensive laser removal therapy, they stay on your skin forever.The Prinker is here to change the game. It is a device that lets you create or print any image or temporary tattoos within a matter of seconds. It is connected to your smartphone and you can select a bunch of preloaded tattoos available in the app.This device was exhibited at The International Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas this year. It is manufactured by a Korean startup company called“SketchOn”.You can sketch your ideas out on your skin with this portable device that is almost twice the size of a computer mouse. This is a nice way to support your team in the match by printing its logo or design onto your skin. You can also share your tattoo designs with others through the app. It is also a fun and creative toy for kids to play with.In order to print the design, all you need to do is select or draw a design on your mobile and then press and rub the base of the device against your skin and you are done. These designs and images are water resistant but can be washed off with soap water. The ink of the Prinker is non-toxic and is made only from certified cosmetic ingredients. Each cartridge contains enough ink fo r about 1,500 tattoos, or as J+ R. Smith would call it, “a good start.”The Prinker is developed by a small team of five members. The company is planning to launch the device in China and then in the United States. The device is currently commercializing in Korea as a rental device. The agencies and organizations pay $150 for a day to use it in their events or marketing.The current version of Prinker is aimed towards business users . But the company is working on a home version, and hopes to have it available to buy before the end of 2018. SketchOn estimates the personal model will retail at $200. The company is currently seeking to partner with international agencies for distribution opportunities.Although Prinker is currently aimed towards novelty and creative purposes, its technologies could eventually be adapted for use by professionaltattoo artists or medical professionals who provide tattoos for patients, such as after a breast cancer operation or skin graft.（1）According to the passage, tattoos by Prinker ______.A . can stay permanentlyB . are convenient to printC . can draw more attentionD . are expensive to remove（2）What can we learn from the passage?A . Prinker can be used to create any image in a short time.B . Prinker is preloaded with many tattoo designs inside.C . Prinker is available for kids in their daily activities.D . Prinker has been adapted for professional use.（3）Where can we probably use Prinker at present?A . At a company annual meeting.B . At a surgical ward in the hospital.C . At a family gathering at home.D . At a professional tattoo shop.（4）The passage is intended to .A . persuade people to buy PrinkerB . promote various methods of getting tattoosC . introduce a new tattoo printing device to readersD . search for business partners for further expansion19. 阅读理解A large body of research has been developed in recent years to explain many aspects of willpower. Most of the researchers exploring self-control do so with an obvious goal in mind: How can willpower be strengthened? If willpower is truly a limited resource, as the research suggests, what can be done to make it stay strong?Avoiding temptation to being exhausted in the first place. Researcherswho study self-control often describe it as being like a muscle that gets tired with heavy use. But there is another aspect to the muscle comparison, they say. While muscles become exhausted by exercise in the short term, they are strengthened by regular exercise in the long term. Similarly, regular practices of self-control may improve willpower strength.The evidence from willpower-exhaustion studies also suggests that making a list of resolutions on New Year’s Eve is the worst possible approach» Being exhausted in one area can reduce willpower in other areas, so it makes mo re sense to focus on a single goal at a time. In other words, don’t try to quit smoking, adopt a healthy diet and start a new exercise plan at the same time. Taking goals one by one is a better approach. Once a good habit is in place, Baumeister says, you’ll no longer need to draw on your willpower to maintain the behavior. Eventually healthy habits will become routine, and won’t require making decisions at all.Many questions about the nature of self-control remain to be answered by further research. Yet it seems likely that with clear goals, good self-monitoring and a little practice, you can train your willpower to stay strong in the face of temptation.（1）From the studies in the passage we learn that ______.A . people have unlimited self-controlB . high motivation ensures one’s successC . willpower is hardly completely exhaustedD . too many temptations often lead to failure（2）The underlined phrase “tap into” in Paragraph 3 most probablymeans ______.A . make use ofB . run out ofC . buildD . increase（3）The author compares self-control to muscles ______.A . to prove the long-term effects of willpowerB . to show the significance of regular exerciseC . to argue that self-control can be easily used upD . to explain the benefits of practicing self-control（4）To develop a good habit, which of the following does the author prefer?A . “I will give up dessert and do exercise.”B . “I will set three goals this n ew semester.”C . “I will keep myself from any temptation.”D . “I will read an English novel every month.”20. 阅读理解The aggressive spread of market economics and communication technologies~often under the control of Western multinational companies—brings new challenges to local cultures and values in non-Western societies. Sometimes it seems as if a tidal wave of the worst Western culture is creeping across the globe like a giant strawberry milkshake spill oat and over the planet, with a flavor that is distinctly sweet, sickly and apparently homogeneous .For some, especially the young, change may mean escape from oppressive traditions. It may also bring new opportunities for cultures to be combined in creative ways. However, there is genuine cause for concern about the rate at which cultures are being worn away in such a globalized world.Perhaps by far the most important far-reaching effect of cultural globalization is the commercialization of culture, which has a disturbing impact on local people’s exist ing values. They are increasingly bombarded with new images, new music, new clothes and new values. The familiar and old are to be abandoned. While there was cultural change long before globalization, there is a danger that much will be lost simply because it is not valued by global markets. In West Africa for example, traditional values have been overtaken by Coca-Cola culture which the local people don’t yet have the values to deal with successfully.Another common aspect of the globalized culture is that it pursues the same “one size fits all” American ideal. The result of this cultural process of homogenization is that a large section of the world’s population dreams of living like Cosby & Co. or like the characters in any other stereotype American soap opera. In addition, the dream of living a better life causes thousands of people to move to already overcrowded cities whose population has boomed by millions within the last decades. The majority of these new immigrants end up in slums leading to poverty, pollution and misery.Such gradual aggression against people’s existing values and cultures has a destructive impact on their sense of who they are, what they want and what they respect. It attacks spiritual values and faith traditions. The accumulative effect in non-Western societies is a crisis of cultural confidence, combined with the increased economic uncertainty and crime which global integration may bring. This creates real problems for social stability» whether itis at the level of nation, community or family.In conclusion, cultural globalization，or worldwide McDonaldization, destroys diversity and displaces the opportunity to sustain decent life through a mixture of many different cultures. It is more a consequence of power concentration in the global media and manufacturing companies than the people’s own wish to abandon their cultural identity and diversity,（1）It can be learned from Paragraph 1 that ______.A . non-Western societies willingly accept economic globalizationB . Western culture unites the world、economies and technologiesC . the booming of Western culture destroys non-Western societiesD . despite its appeal, westernization shows an unpleasant uniformity（2）Which best serves as an example of the “one size fits all” principle in non-Western nations?A . McDonald receives more criticism abroad than at home.B . Many Africans dream of a middle class American lifestyle.C . Chinese food wins great approval in the United Kingdom.D . Some western young people fancy a visit to African countries,（3）What is the writer’s attitude towards cultural globalization?A . Cautious.B . Critical.C . Positive.D . Neutral.（4）The passage is mainly about _______.A . cultural diversity in globalizationB . challenges to non-Western culturesC . drawbacks of cultural globalizationD . disappearance of non-Western cultures四、任务型阅读21. 任务型阅读If you were like most kids, your mother told you there were three no-no’s when it came to your fingers: Don’t put them in an electrical outlet, don’t stick them up your nose , and don’t use them when you are counting.________But experts in education and cognition now believe that using your fingers to do math is not only a perfectly good idea but may even help children become superior students.It certainly makes sense. When children count on their fingers, they take an abstract concept— mathematics—and translate it into the most basic and visual form.________Even when we aren’t actually counting on them, they still can help us on math problem,________It activates when we respond to heat, pressure, pain, or the use of a given finger. Studying brain scans, researchers discovered that when students aged 8 to 13 work on subtraction equations, this region “lights up” on the scans, even if the students aren’t using their fingers. The more compl ex the problem, the more activities are detected.The connection between finger use and math ability has been shown on old-fashioned math tests as well. With their eyes closed, first graders were asked to identify which of their fingers a researcher was touching,________When college students were given the same quiz, the highest scores once again performed best on calculation tests.So what does all this mean? For one thing, parents and teachersshouldn’t discourage children from counting on their fingers.________Memorizing the multiplication tables may help, but it is not the best option. “I would like to see interesting and creative representations of ideas.” says Jo Boaler, a professor of math educatio n.Recently, a series of activities have been designed to strengthen students’ perception of their fingers. Maybe in the near future, there will be only two no-no 1s regarding the use of fingers.A. The first two laws of fingers are as true as ever.B. There is a section of the brain, called the somatosensory finger area.C. Researchers also stress that students simply learn better using visual tools.D. Researchers are unimpressed by those students who finish quickly as well.E. In fact, experts believe t he brain is able to “see” a representation of our fingers.F. That may sound simplistic, but the researchers offer an interesting explanation.G. Researchers found those scoring highest on the finger-ID questions scored higher on a math test.五、书面表达22. 你的英国朋友Jim在给你的邮件中提到他对中国文学很感兴趣，并请你向他推荐一部优秀的中国文学作品。

AIn fairy tales, it's usually the princess that needs protecting. At Google in Silicon Valley, the princess is the one defending the castle. Parisa Tabriz is a 31-year-old with perhaps the most unique job title in engineering- “Google Security Princess”. Her job is to hack into the most popular web browser （浏览器）on the planet, trying to find weaknesses in the system before the “black hats” do. To defeat Google's attackers, Tabriz must firstly think like them.Tabriz's role has evolved dramatically in the eight years since she first started working at Google. Back then, the young graduate from Illinois University was one of 50 security engineers---today there are over 500.Cybercrime （网络犯罪）has come a long way in the past decade - from the Nigerian Prince Scam to credit card theft. Tabriz's biggest concern now is the people who find bugs in Google's software, and sell the information to governments or criminals. To fight against this, the company has set up a Vulnerability Rewards Program, paying anywhere from $100 to $ 20, 000 for reported mistakes.It's a world away from Tabriz's computer-free childhood home in Chicago. The daughter of an此卷只装订不密封班级 姓名 准考证号 考场号 座位号Iranian-American doctor father, and Polish-American nurse mother, Tabriz had little contact with computers until she started studying engineering at college. Gaze across a line-up of Google security staff today and you'll find women like Tabriz are few and far between（稀少的）--- though in the last few years she has hired more female tech geniuses. She admits there's an obvious gender disequilibrium in Silicon Valley.Funnily enough, during training sessions Tabriz first asks new colleagues to hack into not a computer, but a vending machine. Tabriz's job is as much about technological know-how（专门知识）as understanding the psychology of attackers.21. What can we learn about Tabriz from the passage?A. She was the first female engineer at Google.B. She must think differently so as to defeat the attackers.C. Her job relates to not only technology but also psychology.D. Her frequent contact with computers in childhood benefits her a lot.22. Why has Google set up a Vulnerability Rewards Program?A. To protect Google against cybercrime.B. To monitor the normal operation of Google.C. To help the government locate the cybercriminals.D. To raise people's awareness of personal information safety.23. What does the underlined word “disequilibrium” in Paragraph 4 refer to?A. Imbalance.B. Preference.C. Difference.D. Discrimination.24. Which of the following could be the best title of this passage?A. What leads to cybercrimeB. The “Security Princess” who guards GoogleC. Measures taken by Google to protect its usersD. How to become an excellent security engineerBThe English have a difficult and, generally speaking, dysfunctional (怪异的) relationship with clothes. Their main problem is that they have a desperate need for rules, and are unable to get along without them. This helps to explain why they have an international reputation for dressing in general very badly, but with specific areas of excellence, such as high-class men’s suits, ceremonial costumes,and innovative (革新的) street fashion. In other words, we English dress best when we are “in uniform”.You m ay be surprised that I am including “innovative street fashion” in the cate gory of the uniform. Surely the parrot-haired punks (朋克摇滚乐迷) or the Victorian vampire goths are being original, not following rules? It’s true that they all look different and eccen tric (古怪的) but in fact they all look eccentric exactly in the same way. They are wearing a uniform. The only truly eccentric dresser in this country is the Queen, who pays no attention to fashion and continues to wear what she likes, a kind of 1950s fashio n, with no regard for anyone else’s opinion. However, it is true that the s tyles invented by young English people are much more eccentric than any other nation’s street fashion. We may not be individually eccentric, apart from the Queen, but we have a sort of collective eccentricity, and \ye appreciate originality in dress even if we do not individually have it.Another “rule” of behavior I had discovered was that it is very important for the English not to take themselves too seriously, to be able to laugh at themselves. However, it is well known that most teenagers tend to take themselves a bit too seriously.The goths, in their scary black costumes, certainly look as if they are taking themselves seriously. But when I got into conversation with them, I discovered that they too had a sense of humor.I was once chatting to a goth in the full vampire costume—with a white face, deep purple lipstick, and black parrot-hair. I saw he was also wearing a T-shirt with “Goth”. “Why are you wearing that?” I asked. “In case you don’t realize I’m a goth.” he answered, pretending to be serious. We both burst out laughing.25. What can we know about the English people?A. They need rules to dress well.B. They are in need of uniforms.C. They are creative in general.D. They lead the world trend.26. Who is individually eccentric in dressing?A. A high-class man.B. A parrot-haired punk.C. The Queen.D. The fashion innovator.27. Which of the following can best describe the goths?A. They dress badly.B. They dress in an amusing way.C. They are unable to laugh at the way they dress.D. They are less fashionable than the other English people.28. What may be the best title for the text?A. How the English DressB. How the English Admire FashionC. Why the English Like UniformsD. Why the English Are Eccentric in DressCNot long ago, people thought babies were not able to learn things until they were five or six months old. Yet doctors in the United States say babies begin learning on their first day of life. Scientists note that babies are strongly influenced by their environment. They say a baby will smile if her mother does something the baby likes. A baby learns to get the best care possible by smiling to please her mother or other caregivers. This is how babies learn to connect and communicate with other human beings. One study shows that babies can learn before they are born. The researchers placed a tape recorder on the stomach of a pregnant woman. Then, they played a recording of a short story. On the day the baby was born, the researchers attempted to find if he knew the sounds of the story repeated while in his mother. They did this by placing a device in the mouth of the newborn baby.The baby would hear the story if he moved his mouth one way. If the baby moved his mouth the other way, he would hear a different story. The researchers say the baby clearly liked the story he heard before he was born. They say the baby would move his mouth so he could hear the story again and again.Another study shows how mothers can strongly influence social development and language skills in their children. Researchers studied the children from the age of one month to three years. The researchers attempted to measure the sensitivity of the mothers. The women were considered sensitive if they supported their children’s activities and did not in terfere(干预) unnecessarily. They tested the children for thinking and language development when they were three years old. Also, the researchers observed the women for signs of depression. The children of depressed women did not do as well in tests as the children of women who did not suffer from depression. The children of depressed women did poorly in tests of language skills and understanding what they hear.These children also were less cooperative and had more problems dealing with other people. The researchers noted that the sensitivity of the mothers was important to the intelligence developmentof their children. Children did better when their mothers were caring, even when they suffered from depression.29. According to the passage, which of the following is NOT the factor that influences intelligence development in babies?A. The environment.B. Their peersC. Mother’s sensitivityD. Education before birth30. What is the purpose of the experiment in which newborn babies heard the stories?A. To prove that babies can learn on the first day they are bornB. To show mothers can strongly influence intelligence development in their babiesC. To indicate early education has a deep effect on the babies’ language skillsD. To prove that babies can learn before they are born31. Which group of children did the worst in tests of language skills?A. The children of women who did not suffer from depressionB. The children of depressed but caring mothersC. The children of depressed mothers who cared little for their childrenD. Children with high communication abilities32. What is the main idea of the passage?A. Scientific findings about how intelligence develops in babiesB. Scientific findings about how babies develop before birthC. Scientific finding s about how time has an effect on babies’ intelligenceD. A study shows babies are not able to learn things until they are five or six months oldDOver seven months have passed since Panamanian officials launched an expansion of the world famous Panama Ca nal. Officials agreed to the expansion so that many of the world’s largest cargo ships (货船) could easily pass through the canal. Yet the $ 5.25-billion project has problems. It says ships still continue to rub against the canal’s walls and wear out its defenses designed to protect both shipping and the waterway.A dangerous systemThe canal links two oceans-the Atlantic and the Pacific-through a system of locks (船闸). The locks are like steps. They raise and lower ships from one part of the waterway to another on their tripfrom ocean to ocean.With the old locks, which are still in use, large ships would be tied to powerful engines on both sides. These engines help to keep the ships in the center of the canal. In the new locks, the ships are tied to tugboats (拖船). One tugboat is tied to the front of the ship, with the other tied to the back. These boats then guide the ships through the canal.At first, pilots of the cargo ships and tugboat operators would sometimes try to rub the boats against the canal walls as a way to keep the ships straight. But this caused damage to rubber padding (垫料) lining the walls.Not enough trainingEven before the expanded canal opened in June 2016, tugboat operators had expressed concern about the new system. Many asked for more training. The fears and dangers remain, although the boats are going through.The Panama Canal Authority reports that, between June 2016 and January 2017, there were only 15 incidents that resulted in damage to locks or ships. That represents about 2 percent of the 700 times ships that have sailed through the expanded canal.Pilots have argued they should be replaced with a system of floating bumpers (减震) like those used in some European locks. Officials say they plan to continue operating with the current system of defenses, but changes could happen in the future.33. What is the difference between the new locks and the old ones?A. The old locks don’t need rubber padding as defenses.B. The new locks need tugboats tied to both sides of the ships.C. The new locks are easier for the largest ships to pass through the canal.D. The old locks need powerful engines to drag the ships through the canal.34. What is the Panama Canal Authority’s attitude towards the expanded canal?A. Cautious.B. Critical.C. Positive.D. Doubtful.35. What can we learn about the current system of defenses?A. No ships shall rub against the canal walls to protect it.B. Nothing will be done at present to improve it.C. More training will be given to pilots for it.D. A new system will replace it.第二节（共 5 小题，每小题 2 分，满分 10 分）根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，选项中有两项为多余选项。

选项中有两项为多余选项。
The Value of TearsTears can ruin make-up, bring conversation to a stop, and give you a runny nose. Tears leave you embarrassed and without energy. Still, crying is a fact of life, and your tears are very useful. Even when you’re not crying, they make a film over the eye’s surface. ______71______ When tears fall, they reduce stress. But we tend to fight them for all sorts of reasons. “People worry about showing their emotions（情绪）, afraid that once they lose control they’ll never get it back.” ______72______After we cry, the feelings that caused the tears often disappear.Sometimes people become much stressed and can’t cry. Whatever emo tion they are feeling — shock, anger, fear, or sadness— is being held back.But everyone has the need to cry. Psychologist Vera Diamond explains that her treatment often consists of giving people permission to cry. _______73_______Patients practice crying just to become used to expressing emotions. She suggests safe, private places to cry, like under the bedcovers or in the car. Crying is a way of ease tension, but people don’t like it when others cry because it makes them tense. _______74______And they’ll do just about anything to make you stop.In certain situations, such as at work, tears are not appropriate. It’s good not to cry during a tense business discussion. ________75_______You should also act out the whole situation again and be as noisy and angr y as you like. It will help you feel better. “And,” she adds, “Once your tears have taken away the stress, you can begin to think calmly of ways to deal with the problem.”Tears are a sign of our ability to feel. If you find yourself near someone crying, deal with it. And never be afraid to cry yourself.Keys: 71-75 DGBAE第二部分：阅读理解（共两节，40分）第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，共10分）根据短文内容，从短文后的七个选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。
