Sometimes you may find that you are not happy in your life, although everything is going well. Most of the time you have to __36__ this kind of unhappy life, since it is really hard to make changes and move on to a new business, which often involves taking __37__.
My father, however, was a quite different example. When I was about 9 or 10, he told me that I should be whatever I wanted when I grew up, so long as I __38__ it.

Of course he wasn’t successful in everything he tried, but he told me for __48__ that he did something he liked, and that he had the __49__ of doing what he enjoyed.
__50__ one’s comfortable life is not easy. I’ve learned this from my father, and I can say no matter whether the __51__ is good or bad, it is __52__ doing one’s favorite. When we do something we love, it gives us extra __53__ to meet our goals, which are associated with psychological well-being and health. As long as we have no __54__ and give it a try, we are forced to push against ourselves. After all we all want to be where we are __55__ ourselves.

第一节（共15小题；每小题2分，共30分）
B
I Was the Doughnut Lady
In university I had a part-time job at a shop that sold doughnuts and
coffee. Situated on a block where several buses stopped, it served the
people who had a few minutesto wait for their bus. Every afternoon around four o’clock, a group of schoolchildren would burst into the shop, and business would come to a stop. Adults would glance in, see the crowd and pass on. But I didn’t m ind if the children waited for their bus inside. Sometimes I would hand out a bus fare when a ticket went missing —always repaid the next day. On snowy days I would give away some doughnuts. I would lock the door at closing time, and we waited in the warm shop until their bus finally arrived.
I enjoyed my young friends, but it never occurred to me that I played an important role in their lives —until one afternoon when a man came and asked if I was the girl working on weekdays around four o’clock. He identif ied himself as the father of two of my favorites.
―I want you to know I appreciate what you do for my children. I worry about them taking two buses to get home. It means a lot that they can wait here and you keep an eye on them. When they are with the dou ghnut lady, I know they are safe.‖ I told him it wasn’t a big deal, and that I enjoyed the kids.
doughnuts
So I was the Doughnut Lady. I not only received a title, but became a landmark.
Now I think about all the people who keep an eye on my own children. They become, well, Doughnut Ladies. Like the men at the skating rink (滑冰场), who let my boys ring home; Or the bus driver who drove my daughter to her stop at the end of the route at night but wouldn’t leave until I arrived to pick her up; Or that nice police officer who took pity on my boys walking home in the rain when I was at work—even though the phone rang all the next day with calls from curious neighbors. ―Was that a police car I saw at your house last night?‖
That wasn’t a police car. That was a Doughnut Lady.
59. According to the passage, the author sometimes ______.
A. sold bus tickets to the children
B. gave the children free doughnuts
C. did business with the children’s help
D. called the children’s parents to pick them up
60. By saying ―…it wasn’t a big deal (Para.4),‖ the author meant that ______.
A. she hadn’t done anything significant
B. she hadn’t spent much time with the children
C. she hadn’t made a lot of money from the children
D. she hadn’t found it hard to get along with the children
61. What can we learn about the police officer?
A. He took the boys to the police station.
B. He helped the boys look for their mother.
C. He drove the boys back home in a police car.
D. He managed to make sure of the boys’ identity.
62. The passage suggests that ______.
A. running a business requires skill
B.taking responsibility is a moral virtue
C.devotionshould be everything in life
D. there are always no small acts of kindness
C
“We haven’t found anything that we can’t recycle!”
Cigarette ends are everywhere—littering our streets and beaches—and for decades they’ve been thought of as ―unrecyclable‖. But a New Jersey based company, called TerraCycle, has taken on the challenge, and has come up with a way to recycle millions of cigarette ends and turn them into industrial plastic products. Its aim is to recycle things that people normally consider impossible to reuse.
Obviously it would be even better for the environment if everyone just stopped smoking, but the statistics show that although there has been an increase in anti-smoking ads and messaging, between 2000 and 2014, global sales of cigarettes increased by 8 percent, and a whole lot of those
cigarette ends are ending up as trash. Since most of our litter eventually ends up in waterways, cigarette ends can surely pollute the surrounding environment. ―It only takes a single cigarette end to pollute a liter of water,‖ TerraCycle founder, Tom Szaky, said. ―Animals can also mistake littered cigarette ends for food.‖
So how do you go about turning all those poisonous ends into something useful? TerraCycle does this by first breaking them down into separate parts. They mix the remaining materials, such as the tobacco and the paper, with other kinds of rubbish, and use it on non-agricultural land, such as golf courses. The filters (过滤嘴) are a little harder. To recycle these, TerraCycle first makes them clean and cuts them into small pieces, and then combines them with other recycled materials, making them into liquid for industrial plastic products.
They’re now also expanding their recycling offerings to the rest of the 80 percent of household waste that currently can’t be recycled, such as chocolate pa ckaging, pens, and mobile phones. The goal is to use the latest research to find a way to stop so much waste ending up in landfill (垃圾填埋), and then get companies to provide money for the process. And so far, it’s working.
―We haven’t found anything that we can’t recycle,‖ communications director of TerraCycle, AlbeZakes, said. ―But with the amount and variety of packaging and litter in the world, we are always looking for new waste streams to address.‖
63. What does TerraCycle intend to do?
A. Search for recyclable materials for use.
B. Deal with as many cigarette ends as possible.
C. Produce new kinds of industrial plastic products.
D. Recycle what used to be considered unrecyclable.
64. The underlined word ―trash‖ in Paragraph 2 probably means ______.
A. rubbish
B. poison
C. disaster
D. ruin
65. What does Paragraph 3 mainly talk about?
A. The effective use of cigarette ends.
B. The process of recycling cigarette ends.
C. The difficulty in recycling cigarette ends.
D. The reason for breaking down cigarette ends.
66. What Albe said in the last paragraph implies that ______.
A. there is more and more waste to be recycled
B. it is difficult for TerraCycle to recycle everything
C. TerraCycle is trying to meet the challenge of new waste
D. TerraCycle has successfully recycled a large amount of waste
D
Current Culture: Is Common Culture Alive?
The digitizing and globalizing world is changing the working of culture. As some see it, cities and nations are losing their common culture and their general spirit: people can no longer count on those around them valuing any of the same music or films. Others argue that a common culture is not dying so much as changing forms: it is less and less attached to a particular area and ever more linked to global networks.
The facts lead to the change that anyone can become a cultural producer today, that the culture is increasingly available everywhere you want it, and whenever you want it, not just in the two months after the movie or book came out. Cultural possibilities have multiplied as a result, but the change also means fewer cultural moments. It is easy to find the change in terms of loss of diversity of society. So what will it mean if globalization turns us into one wide world culture?
For the enthusiasts of these changes, culture is not about popular artists or books, but centers on platforms like Google and Wikipedia, where every variety of culture brings about the exchange of knowledge and ideas, and makes connections across boundaries. It is perhaps debatable whether two people who have participated in such websites, but in totally different corners of them, have had a cultural experience in common. In fact, these platforms become very successful with a large crowd of people, who build things together, share information, and forward articles back and forth.
There are still more questions. What does it mean for the future of countries that culture now goes beyond the limits of the nation? Is there anything to defend and preserve in the passing cultural world, or is that merely to favor pen over printing press, horse over automobile?
Up to now a growing quantity of culture has been globally spreading and developing. More individuals (个人) than ever have the chances to be makers of culture, even if that means more to choose from and fewer standards to be reached in common. What it means is this strange feeling: that of being more connected than ever, with one-click access to so much of the cultural harvest around the world, and yet, of being starved for having similar interests and opinions with others, concerned only with ourselves.
67. In Paragraph 1 the author indicates ______.
A. the missing of common culture
B. the cultural diversity among people
C. the disadvantage in the digitizing society
D. the double standard of cultural evaluation
68. It can be inferred from Paragraph 3 that ______.
A. people feel satisfied with the current culture
B. enthusiasts look for current culture from famous artists
C. disappearance of common culture is a problem to be solved
D. common culture may exit into websites that connect the world
69. According to the author, the increase of cultural possibilities can be caused by ______.
A.agreement with common culture
B. individuals as cultural producers
C. popular artists and books available
D. a reduction in development of culture
70. What is the author’s attitude towards current culture?
A. Uninterested.
B. Approving.
C. Uncertain.
D. Critical.
第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，共10分）
Sponsorship in Sport
Sponsorship in sport is usually in the form of financial assistance offered by a commercial organization to a person or a team in return for publicity.
Most people admit that sponsorship in sport is necessary. For one thing, sport has become increasingly expensive to manage, and players need money to be able to participate at a high level. For another, watching sport has become a major form of social entertainment, so sponsorship of sporting events helps companies to promote their products. ___71___ The only negative aspects for a sponsor are if an athlete should play badly or misbehave, but generally sport creates a good image (形象) for a company by conveying health and fitness.
___72___The organizers of the Olympic Games have been criticized for accepting sponsorship from fast food companies. People question why the organizers take money from such companies. Public health experts believe if we really want to promote health alongside excellence in sport, then it must be linked by approvals for products which support good health. ___73___ Nowadays sponsorship is no longer limited to major events and professionals. Local teams and young players are also sponsored. There is a trend also for amateurs to rely on sponsorship for equipment, clothing, and to cover their expenses of training and competing even though they are not full-time sportspeople. So sponsorship enables major world events to become more impressive. ___74___ Besides, sponsorship enables us to view our favorite sporting event on television, even though it is taking place on the other side of the world.
However, such commercialization sometimes means compromise, and in fact, for some less popular sports it may be a negative factor, and it may even result in the end of that sporting code. Sports which are seen as less popular and therefore less commercially successful can no longer attract sponsors. ___75___The uneven distribution of sponsorship could lead to the end of some less popular sports, and could reduce our freedom of sporting choice.
A. It shouldn’t be related to any unhe althy products.
B. Sponsorshipmay mislead players about sporting choices.
C. However, this has caused serious arguments for some major events.
D. The end goal for the sponsors is to deliver value and growth for their brands.
E. It also promotes participation at grassroots level, bringing sports to everyone.
F. Tax relief is another advantage, which means sponsorship can help to save money.
G. Sponsorship may create the situation of giving with the one hand and taking with the other.

I recommend it because it represents a particular type of Chinese folk art, and this year is the Chinese lunar year of the rooster. I’m sure visitors will be interested in your work.
If you need any help, please let me know.
Yours,

Our Meaningful Work
Last Saturday my classmates and I did some meaningful work as we went to buy books.
That afternoon we rode shared bicycles to Beijing Book Building as planned. Everyone was excited, enjoying the convenience brought about by the shared bicycles. However, something unexpected happened on arrival. We noticed the shared bicycles parked here and there, blocking the way of the passersby. One of my classmates proposed placing them in order, so we got down to work immediately. It took us about twenty minutes to finish the work. Seeing the tidily arranged bicycles, we all felt delighted. We also received high praise for what we had done.
The experience caused my concern about shared bicycles. It think we should put them in place after using them, which not only brings us neat and tidy environment, but also reflects qualities of a good citizen.
