because it’s the month when nature’s berries and stone fruits are in abundance.These colourful and sweet jewels from British Columbia’s fields are little powerhouses of nutritionalprotection.Of the common berries,strawberries are highest in vitamin C,although,because of their seeds,raspberries contain a little more protein(蛋白质),iron and zinc(not that fruits have much protein).Blueberries are particularly high in antioxidants(抗氧化物质).The yellow and orange stone fruits suchas peaches are high in the carotenoids we turn into vitamin A and which are antioxidants.As for cherries(樱桃),they are so delicious who cares?However,they are rich in vitamin C.When combined with berries or slices of other fruits,frozen bananas make an excellent base for thick,cooling fruit shakes and low fat“ice cream”.For this purpose,select ripe bananas for freezing as they aremuch sweeter.Remove the skin and place them in plastic bags or containers and freeze.If you like,asqueeze of fresh lemon juice on the bananas will prevent them turning brown.Frozen bananas will last several weeks,depending on their ripeness and the temperature of the freezer.If you have a juicer,you can simply feed in frozen bananas and some berries or sliced fruit.Out comes a“soft-serve”creamy dessert,to be eaten right away.This makes a fun activity for a children’s party;they love feeding the fruit and frozen bananas into the top of the machine and watching the ice cream come out below.24.What does the author seem to like about cherries?A.They contain protein.B.They are high in vitamin A.C.They have a pleasant taste.D.They are rich in antioxidants.25.Why is fresh lemon juice used in freezing bananas?A.To make them smell better.B.To keep their colour.C.To speed up their ripening.D.To improve their nutrition.26.What is“a juicer”in the last paragraph?A.A dessert.B.A drink.C.A container.D.A machine.27.From which is the text probably taken?A.A biology textbook.B.A health magazine.C.A research paper.D.A travel brochure.CTeens and younger children are reading a lot less for fun,according to a Common Sense Media report published Monday.While the decline over the past decade is steep for teen readers,some data in the report shows that reading remains a big part of many children’s lives,and indicates how parents might help encourage more reading.According to the report’s key findings,“the proportion(比例)who say they‘hardly ever’read for fun has gone from8percent of13-year-olds and9percent of17-year-olds in1984to22percent and27 percent respectively today.”The report data shows that pleasure reading levels for younger children,ages2-8,remain largely the same.But the amount of time spent in reading each session has declined,from closer to an hour or more to closer to a half hour per session.When it comes to technology and reading,the report does little to counsel(建议)parents looking for data about the effect of e-readers and tablets on reading.It does point out that many parents still limit electronic reading,mainly due to concerns about increased screen time.The most hopeful data shared in the report shows clear evidence of parents serving as examples and important guides for their kids when it comes to reading.Data shows that kids and teens who do read frequently,compared to infrequent readers,have more books in the home,more books purchased for them, parents who read more often,and parents who set aside time for them to read.As the end of school approaches,and school vacation reading lists loom(逼近)ahead,parents might take this chance to step in and make their own summer reading list and plan a family trip to the library or bookstore.28.What is the Common Sense Media report probably about?A.Children’s reading habits.B.Quality of children’s books.C.Children’s after-class activities.D.Parent-child relationships.29.Where can you find the data that best supports“children are reading a lot less for fun”?A.In paragraph2.B.In paragraph3.C.In paragraph4.D.In paragraph5.30.Why do many parents limit electronic reading?A.E-books are of poor quality.B.It could be a waste of time.C.It may harm children’s health.D.E-readers are expensive.31.How should parents encourage their children to read more?A.Act as role models for them.B.Ask them to write book reports.C.Set up reading groups for them.D.Talk with their reading class teachers.DWe’ve all been there:in a lift,in line at the bank or on an airplane,surrounded by people who are, like us,deeply focused on their smartphones or,worse,struggling with the uncomfortable silence.What’s the problem?It’s possible that we all have compromised conversational intelligence.It’s more likely that none of us start a conversation because it’s awkward and challenging,or we think it’s annoying and unnecessary.But the next time you find yourself among strangers,consider that small talk is worth the trouble.Experts say it’s an invaluable social practice that results in big benefits.Dismissing small talk as unimportant is easy,but we can’t forget that deep relationships wouldn’t even exist if it weren’t for casual conversation.Small talk is the grease(润滑剂)for social communication,says Bernardo Carducci,director of the Shyness Research Institute at Indiana University Southeast.“Almost every great love story and each big business deal begins with small talk,”he explains.“The key to successful small talk is learning how to connect with others,not just communicate with them.”In a2014study,Elizabeth Dunn,associate professor of psychology at UBC,invited people on their way into a coffee shop.One group was asked to seek out an interaction(互动)with its waiter;the other,to speak only when necessary.The results showed that those who chatted with their server reported significantly higher positive feelings and a better coffee shop experience.“It’s not that talking to the waiter is better than talking to your husband,”say Dunn.“But interactions with peripheral(边缘的) members of our social network matter for our well-being also.”Dunn believes that people who reach out to strangers feel a significantly greater sense of belonging, a bond with others.Carducci believes developing such a sense of belonging starts with small talk.“Small talk is the basis of good manners,”he says.32.What phenomenon is described in the first paragraph?A.Addiction to smartphones.B.Inappropriate behaviours in public places.C.Absence of communication between strangers.D.Impatience with slow service.33.What is important for successful small talk according to Carducci?A.Showing good manners.B.Relating to other people.C.Focusing on a topic.D.Making business deals.34.What does the coffee-shop study suggest about small talk?A.It improves family relationships. B.It raises people’s confidence.C.It matters as much as formal talk.D.It makes people feel good.35.What is the best title for the text?A.Conversation CountsB.Ways of Making Small TalkC.Benefits of Small TalkD.Uncomfortable Silence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。

guests on the sofa every morning,but she is cooking up a storm in her latest role ﹣showing families how to prepare delicious and nutritious meals on a tight budget.In Save Money:Good Food,she visits a different home each week and with the help of chef Matt Tebbutt offers top tips on how to reduce food waste,while preparing recipes for under £5 per family a day.And the Good Morning Britain presenter says she's been able to put a lot of what she's learnt into practice in her own home,preparing meals for sons,Sam,14,Finn,13,and Jack,11."We love Mexican churros,so I buy them on my phone from my local Mexican takeaway restaurant,'' she explains,"I pay £5 for a portion(一份),but Matt makes them for 26p a portion,because they are flour,water,sugar and oil.Everybody can buy takeaway food,but sometimes we're not aware how cheaply we can make this food ourselves."The eight﹣part series (系列节目),Save Money:Good Food,follows in the footsteps of ITV's Save Money:Good Health,which gave viewers advice on how to get value from the vast range of health products on the market.With food our biggest weekly household expense.Susanna and Matt spend time with a different family each week.In tonight's Easter special they come to the aid of a family in need of some delicious inspiration on a budget.The team transforms the family's long weekend of celebration with less expensive but still tasty recipes.(1)What do we know about Susanna Reid?A.She enjoys embarrassing her guests.B.She has started a new programme.C.She dislikes working early in the morning.D.She has had a tight budget for

can be a suitable title for the text?A.Keeping Fit by Eating SmartB.Balancing Our Daily DietC.Making Yourself a Perfect ChefD.Cooking Well for Less13.(8.00分)CLanguages have been coming and going for thousands of years,but in recent times there has been less coming and a lot more going.When the world was still populated by hunter﹣gatherers,small,tightly knit (联系)groups developed their own patterns of speech independent of each other.Some language experts believe that 10,000 years ago,when the world had just five to ten million people,they spoke perhaps 12,000 languages between them.Soon afterwards,many of those people started settling down to become farmers,and their languages too became more settled and fewer in number.In recent centuries,trade,industrialisation,the development of the nation﹣state and the spread of universal compulsory education,especially globalisation andbetter communications in the past few decades,all have caused many languages to disappear,and dominant languages such as English,Spanish and Chinese are increasingly taking over.At present,the world has about 6,800 languages.The distribution of these languages is hugely uneven.The general rule is that mild zones have relatively few languages,often spoken by many people,while hot,wet zones have lots,often spoken by small numbers.Europe has only around 200 languages;the Americas about 1,000;Africa 2,400;and Asia and the Pacific perhaps 3,200,of which Papua New Guinea alone accounts for well over 800.The median number (中位数)of speakers is a mere 6,000,which means that half the world's languages are spoken by fewer people than that.Already well over 400 of the total of 6,800 languages are close to extinction (消亡),with only a few elderly speakers left.Pick,at random,Busuu in Cameroon (eight remaining speakers),Chiapaneco in Mexico (150),Lipan Apache in the United States (two or three)or Wadjigu in Australia (one,with a question﹣mark):none of these seems to have much chance of survival.(1)What can we infer about languages in hunter﹣gatherer times?A.They developed very fast.B.They were large in number.C.They had similar patterns.D.They were closely connected.(2)Which of the following best explains "dominant" underlined in paragraph 2?A.Complex.B.Advanced.C.Powerful.D.Modern.(3)How many languages are spoken by less than 6,000 people at present?A.About 6,800.B.About 3,400.C.About 2,400.D.About 1,200.(4)What is the main idea of the text?A.New languages will be created.B.People's lifestyles are reflected in languages.C.Human development results in fewer languages.D.Geography determines language evolution.14.(8.00分)DWe may think we're a culture that gets rid of our worn technology at the first sight of something shiny and new,but a new study shows that we keep using our old devices (装置)well after they go out of style.That's bad news for the environment ﹣and our wallets ﹣as these outdated devices consume much more energy than the newer ones that do the same things.To figure out how much power these devices are using,Callie Babbitt and her colleagues at the Rochester Institute of Technology in New York tracked the environmental costs for each product throughout its life ﹣from when its minerals are mined to when we stop using the device.This method provided a readout for how home energy use has evolved since the early 1990s.Devices were grouped by generation.Desktop computers,basic mobile phones,and box﹣set TVs defined 1992.Digital cameras arrived on the scene in 1997.And MP3 players,smart phones,and LCD TVs entered homes in 2002,before tablets and e﹣readers showed up in 2007.As we accumulated more devices,however,we didn't throw out our old ones."The living﹣room television is replaced and gets planted in the kids' room,and suddenly one day,you have a TV in every room of the house," said one researcher.The average number of electronic devices rose from four per household in 1992 to 13 in 2007.We're not just keeping these old devices﹣we continue touse them.According to the analysis of Babbitt's team,old desktop monitors and box TVs with cathode ray tubes are the worst devices with their energy consumption and contribution to greenhouse gas emissions (排放)more than doubling during the 1992 to 2007 window.So what's the solution(解决方案)?The team's data only went up to 2007,but the researchers also explored what would happen if consumers replaced old products with new electronics that serve more than one function,such as a tablet for word processing and TV viewing.They found that more on﹣demand entertainment viewing on tablets instead of TVs and desktop computers could cut energy consumption by 44%.(1)What does the author think of new devices?A.They are environment﹣friendly.B.They are no better than the old.C.They cost more to use at home.D.They go out of style quickly.(2)Why did Babbitt's team conduct the research?A.To reduce the cost of minerals.B.To test the life cycle of a product.C.To update consumers on new technology.D.To find out electricity consumption of the devices.(3)Which of the following uses the least energy?A.The box﹣set TV.B.The tablet.C.The LCD TV.D.The desktop computer.(4)What does the text suggest people do about old electronic devices?A.Stop using them.B.Take them apart.C.Upgrade them.D.Recycle them.第二节(毎小题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。

upon her death.On a sunny Saturday,Sally and I drove over to the museum.She asked,"Do you have the address?""No,but I'll recognize it,there was a picture in the magazine."Oh,stop.There it is!"The museum was free.We entered,excited.A group of people sitting in the hall stopped talking and stared at us."May I help you?" a man asked."No,"I said."we're fine." Tour guides got on my nerves.What if they talked a long time about a painting you weren't that interested in?Sally had gone upstairs.The people in the hall seemed very nosy (爱窥探的),keeping their eyes on me with curiosity.What was their problem?I saw some nice sculptures in one room.Suddenly I sensed a man standing behind me."Where do you think you are?" he asked.I turned sharply."The McNay Art Museum!" He smiled,shaking his head."Sorry,the McNay is on New Braunfels Street.""what's this place?" I asked,still confused."Well,it' s our home."My heart jolted(震颤),I raced to the staircase and called out," Sally! Come down immediately!"There' s some really good stuff(艺术作品)up there." She stepped down,looking confused.I pushed her toward the front door,waving at the family,saying,"Sorry,please forgive us,you have a really nice place."Outside,when I told Sally what happened,she covered her mouth,laughing.She couldn't believe how long they let us look around without saying anything.The real McNay was splendid,but we felt nervous the whole time we were there.Van Gogh,Picasso.This time,we stayed together,in case anything else unusual happened.Thirty years later,a woman approached me in a public place."Excuse me,did you ever enter a residence,long ago,thinking it was the McNay Museum?""Yes.But how do you know?We never told anyone.""That was my home.I was a teenager sitting in the hall.Before you came over,I never realized what a beautiful place I lived in.I never felt lucky before.You thought it was a museum.My feelings about my home changed after that.I've always wanted to thank you."(1)What do we know about Marian McNay?A.She was a painter.B.She was a

museum.19.(12.5分)CThere's a new frontier in 3D printing that's beginning to come into focus:food.Recent development has made possible machines that print,cook,and serve foods on a mass scale.And the industry isn't stopping there.Food productionWith a 3D printer,a cook can print complicated chocolate sculptures and beautiful pieces for decoration on a wedding cake.Not everybody can do that﹣it takes years of experience,but a printer makes it easy.A restaurant in Spain uses a Foodini to "re﹣create forms and pieces" of food that are "exactly the same," freeing cooks to complete other tasks.In another restaurant,all of the dishes and desserts it serves are 3D﹣printed,rather than farm to table.Sustainability(可持续性)The global population is expected to grow to 9.6 billion by 2050,and some analysts estimate that food production will need to be raised by 50 percent to maintain current levels.Sustainability is becoming a necessity.3D food printing could probably contribute to the solution.Some experts believe printers could use hydrocolloids(水解胶体)from plentiful renewables like algae(藻类)and grass to replace the familiar ingredients(烹饪原料).3D printing can reduce fuel use and emissions.Grocery stores of the future might stock "food" that lasts years on end,freeing up shelf space and reducing transportation and storage requirements.NutritionFuture 3D food printers could make processed food healthier.Hod Lipson,a professor at Columbia University,said,"Food printing could allow consumer to print food with customized nutritional content,like vitamins.So instead of eating a piece of yesterday 's bread from the supermarket,you'd eat something baked just for you on demand."ChallengesDespite recent advancements in 3D food printing,the industry has many challenges to overcome.Currently,most ingredients must be changed to a paste (糊状物)before a printer can use them,and the printing process is quite time﹣consuming,because ingredients interact with each other in very complex ways.On top of that,most of the 3D food printers now are restricted to dry ingredients,because meat and milk products may easily go bad.Some experts are skeptical about 3D food printers,believing they are better suited for fast food restaurants than homes and high﹣end restaurants.(1)What benefit does 3D printing bring to food production?A.It helps cooks to create new dishes.B.It saves time and effort in cooking.C.It improves the cooking conditions.D.It contributes to restaurant decorations.(2)What can we learn about 3D food printing from Paragraph 3?A.It solves food shortages easily.B.It quickens the transportation of food.C.It needs no space for the storage of food.D.It uses renewable materials as sources of food.(3)According to Paragraph 4,3D﹣printed food.A.is more available to consumersB.can meet individual nutritional needsC.is more tasty than food in supermarketsD,can keep all the nutrition in raw materials(4)What is the main factor that prevents 3D food printing from spreading widely?A.The printing process is complicated.B.3D food printers are too expensive.C.Food materials have to be dry.D.Some experts doubt 3D food printing.(5)What could be the best title of the passage?A.3D Food Printing:Delicious New TechnologyB.A New Way to Improve 3D Food PrintingC.The Challenges for 3D Food ProductionD.3D Food Printing:From Farm to Table20.(12.5分)DGive yourself a test.Which way is the wind blowing?How many kinds of wildflowers can be seen from your front door?If your awareness is as sharp as it could be,you'll have no trouble answering these questions.Most of us observed much more as children than we do as adults.A child's day is filled with fascination,newness and wonder.Curiosity gave us all a natural awareness.But distinctions that were sharp to us as children become unclear,we are numb (麻木的)to new stimulation(刺激),new ideas.Relearning the art of seeing the world around us is quite simple,although it takes practice and requires breaking some bad habits.The first step in awakening senses is to stop predicting what we are going to see and feel before it occurs.This blocks awareness.One chilly night when I was hiking in the Rocky Mountains with some students,I mentioned that we were going to cross a mountain stream.The students began complaining about how cold it would be.We reached the stream,and they unwillingly walked ahead.They were almost knee﹣deep when they realized it was a hot spring.Later they all admitted they'd felt cold water at first.Another block to awareness is the obsession (痴迷)many of us have with naming things.I saw bird watchers who spotted a bird,immediately looked it up in field guides,and said,a "ruby﹣crowned kinglet" and checked it off.They no longer paid attention to the bird and never learned what it was doing.The pressures of "time" and "destination" are further blocks to awareness.I encountered many hikers who were headed to a distant camp﹣ground with justenough time to get there before dark.It seldom occurred to them to wander a bit,to take a moment to see what's around them.I asked them what they'd seen."Oh,a few birds,"they said.They seemed bent on their destinations.Nature seems to unfold to people who watch and wait.Next time you take a walk,no matter where it is,take in all the sights,sounds and sensations.Wander in this frame of mind and you will open a new dimension to your life.(1)According to Paragraph 2,compared with adults,children are more.A.anxious to do wondersB.sensitive to others' feelingsC.likely to develop unpleasant habitsD.eager to explore the world around them(2)What idea does the author convey in Paragraph 3?A.To avoid jumping to conclusions.B.To stop complaining all the time.C.To follow the teacher's advice.D.To admit mistakes honestly.(3)The bird watchers' behavior shows that they.A.are very patient in their observationB.are really fascinated by natureC.care only about the names of birdsD.question the accuracy of the field guides(4)Why do the hikers take no notice of the surroundings during the journey?A.The natural beauty isn't attractive to them.B.They focus on arriving at the camp in time.C.The forest in the dark is dangerous for them.D.They are keen to see rare birds at the destination.(5)In the passage,the author intends to tell us we should.A.fill our senses to feel the wonders of the worldB.get rid of some bad habits in our daily lifeC.open our mind to new things and ideasD.try our best to protect nature第三部分:写作第一节:阅读表达(满分10分)阅读短文,按照题目要求用英语回答问题.21.(10分)Some people live to climb the highest mountains.Some people live only dreaming about it while others live to avoid ever climbing at all.But one thing is certain,all people encounter mountains in their life.When I was a little girl,my family moved to a tiny town at the bottom of a big mountain.One day after school,while exploring the green woods of this magnificent mountain,I almost fell on a set of stairs.What could these steps lead to?Curiosity got the best of me as I knew it would be starting to get dark soon.I started climbing up those strangely mysterious steps.I climbed and climbed.There was nothing but just green bushes and these steps.I had to reach the top! But it was now getting real dark.If I kept going I might not be able to see my way back.My mum would be worried sick if I didn't come home soon.So I ran back home almost in the dark while trying not to get too scared.Anxiously I went to bed dreaming about what I would find at the top of this magical mountain.Could there be a castle up there?Maybe I would find a monster(怪物).Maybe I was taking the risk of never coming back home.Or,maybe all I would find was absolutely nothing! But something inside me was going to climb that mountain at all cost.I could hardly wait to try this adventure again.Now we live in a world surrounded by the "can't do" attitudes.We all fall down.We all have doubts and regrets.Still we must climb and dream about what's at the top of our mountain.Monsters may appear or the night will fall.But never ever give up on your dream! Never let anyone tell you,"You can't." Dream big andclimb high!(1)What made the author start to climb up the stairs to the mountain top?(no more than 5 words)(2)Why did the author hurry back home without reaching the top of the mountain?Give two reasons.(no more than 15 words)(3)How would you describe the author in terms of personalities according to Paragraph 4?(no more than 10 words)(4)How do you understand the underlined sentence in the last paragraph?(no more than 5 words)(5)What's your attitude towards the"mountain"in your life?Please explain.(no more than 20 words)第二节:书面表达(满分25分)22.(25分)假设你是晨光中学的机器人兴趣小组组长李津,你的美国朋友Chris

college.whom做宾语,that可以做主语或者宾语,her不能够引导定语从句.故选:C.【点评】定语从句的考查主要就是考查关系词的辨析,关系代词that,which,whose,whom,as,who在句中做主语,宾语,表语或者定语;要分析句子成分,看缺少什么成分,就选用相应的关系词.3.(1分)At first Robert wouldn't let his daughter go

need a new passport so I will have to have my photograph .()A.taking B.taken C.being taken D.take【分析】我需要一张新护照,所以我得照张相.【解答】考查非谓语动词." have + sth (宾语)+过去分词(宾语补足语)"意为"让/ 叫/ 使/ 请别人做某事".宾语sth 后面用过去分词作宾语补足语,说明sth 与过去分词表示的动作之间是被动关系.photograph与动词take之间是被动关系,故应该使用动词的过去分词作宾语补足语." have +sb / sth (宾语)+现在分词(宾语补足语)"意为"叫/ 让/ 使某人做一直某事或让某种情况发生".宾语sb/sth 后面用现在分词作宾语补足语,表示宾语与现在分词表示的动作之间为主动关系,且动作正在进行.have + sb (宾语)+ do sth (宾语补足语)"意为"让/ 叫/ 使某人做某事".此结构中的have 是使役动词,sb 作宾语,其后的do sth 是省去to 的动词不定式作宾语补足语.故选:B.【点评】在英语中,出现了have sth done,have sb do sth 与have sb/ sth doing 三种结构,不少同学对这些结构区分不清,把握不准.一、have sth done" have +sth (宾语)+过去分词(宾语补足语)"意为"让/ 叫/ 使/ 请别人做某事".宾语sth 后面用过去分词作宾语补足语,说明sth 与过去分词表示的动作之间是被动关系.例如:We had the machine mended just now.我们刚才请人把机器修好了.He has had his hair cut.他(请人给他)理发了.The patient is going to have his temperature taken.这个病人准备请/ 叫/ 让人量体温.二、have sb do sth" have + sb (宾语)+ do sth (宾语补足语)"意为"让/ 叫/ 使某人做某事".此结构中的have 是使役动词,sb 作宾语,其后的do sth 是省去to 的动词不定式作宾语补足语.例如:The boss often has them work for 14 hours a day.老板经常要他们一天工作14 个小时.I'll have someone repair the bike for you.我会让人为你修理自行车的.Don't forget to have Mr Brown come to our party.(= Don't forget to ask / invite Mr Brown to come to our party.)别忘了让布朗先生来参加我们的晚会.三、have sb / sth doing" have +sb / sth (宾语)+现在分词(宾语补足语)"意为"叫/ 让/ 使某人做某事或让某种情况发生".宾语sb/sth 后面用现在分词作宾语补足语,表示宾语与现在分词表示的动作之间为主动关系,且动作正在进行.例如:Don't have the baby crying!不要让婴儿啼哭!Don't have the dog barking much,Lilin.李林,别让狗狂吠不停.You'd better have your car running slowly.你最好把车子开慢点.have sth.to do 是要干某事,这件事是由主语来做的,而have sth.to be done 是有事要做,这件事本质上不是由主语来做的.比方说:I have my dinner to cook.这里的饭是我做的,而I have my hair to be cut.头发不是我来剪的,是理发师,但我要剪头发.1.have sth.to be done是有些事情等着被做,其中的不定式表此时目前还没有被做.而have sth.done指的是此事已经被做完.二者有一个时间差.2.另外要注意的是have sth.done短语中,做这件事情的人一定不是你自己而是别人.用楼上的例子:I

Answer the questions below each text b y choosing [A],[B], [C] or [D]. Mark your answers on the ANSWER SHEE T. (40 points)Text 1It is curious that Stephen Koziatek feels almost as though he has to ju stify his efforts to give his students a better future.Mr. Koziatek is part of something pioneering. He is a teacher at a Ne w Hampshire high school where learning is not something of books and t ests and mechanical memorization, but practical. When did it become acc epted wisdom that students should be able to name the 13th president of the United States but be utterly overwhelmed by a broken bike Chain?As Koziatek know, there is learning in just about everything. Nothing is necessarily gained by forcing students to learn geometry at a graffitied d esk stuck with generations of discarded chewing gum. They can also lear n geometry by assembling a bicycle.But he’s also found a kind of insidious prejudice. Working with your ha nds is seen as almost a mark of inferiority. School in the family of vocatio nal education “have that stereotype...that it’s for kids who can’t make it ac ademically,” he says.On one hand,that viewpoint is a logical product of America’s evolution. Manufacturing is not the economic engine that it once was.The job securit y that the US economy once offered to high school graduates has largely evaporated. More education is the new principle.We want more for our ki ds,and rightfully so.But the headlong push into bachelor’s degrees for all—and the subtle devaluing of anything less—misses an important point:That’s not the only t hing the American economy needs.Yes,a bachelor’s degree opens moredo ors.Buteven now,54 percent of the jobs in the country are middle-skill jobs, such as construction and high-skill manufacturing.But only 44 percent of w orkers are adequately trained.In other words,at a time when the working class has turned the countr y on its political head,frustrated that the opportunity that once defined Am erica is vanishing,one obvious solution is staring us in the face.There is a gap in working-class jobs, but the workers who need those jobs most are n’t equipped to do them.Koziatek’s Manchester School of Technology High School is trying to fill that gap.Koziatek’s school is a wake-up call. When education becomes one-size -fits-all,it risks overlooking a nation’s diversity of gifts.21.A br oken bike chain is mentioned to show students’ lack of.A.academic trainingB.practical abilityC.pioneering spiritD.mechanical memorization22.There exists the prejudice that vocational education is for kids who.A.have a stereotyped mindB.have no career motivationC.are financially disadvantagedD.are not academically successful23.we can infer from Paragraph 5 that high school graduates.ed to have more job opportunitiesed to have big financial concernsC.are entitled to more educational privilegesD.are reluctant to work in manufacturing24.The headlong push into bachelors degrees for all.A.helps create a lot of middle-skill jobsB.may narrow the gap in working-class jobsC.indicates the overvaluing of higher educationD.is expected to yield a better-trained workforce25.The author’s attitude toward Koziatek’s school can be described as.A.tolerantB.cautiousC.supportiveD.disappointedText 2While fossil fuels—coal,oil,gas—still generate roughly 85 percent of t he world’s energy supp ly, it's clearer than ever that the future belongs to renewable sources such as wind and solar.The move to renewables is picking up momentum around the world:They now account for more than ha lf of new power sources going on line.Some growth stems from a commitment by governments and farsighte d businesses to fund cleaner energy sources. But increasingly the story is about the plummetingprices of renewables,especially wind and solar.The cost of solar panels has dropped by 80 percent and the cost of wind turbi nes by close to one-third in the past eight years.In many parts of the world renewable energy is already a principal ene rgy source.In Scotland,for example,wind turbines provide enough electri city to power 95 percent of homes.While the rest of the world takes the le ad,notably China and Europe,the United States is also seeing a remark able shift.In March,for the first time,wind and solar power accounted for more than 10 percent of the power generated in the US,reported the US Energy Information Administration.President Trump has underlined fossil fuels—especially coal—as the p ath to economic growth.In a recent speech in Iowa,he dismissed wind po wer as an unreliable energy source.But that message did not play well wit h many in Iowa,where wind turbines dot the fields and provide 36 percen t of the state’s electricity generation—and where tech giants like Microsoft are being attracted by the availability of clean energy to power their data centers.The question“what happens when the wind doesn’t blow or the sun d o esn’t shine?”has provided a quick put-down for skeptics.But a boost in the storage capacity of batteries is making their ability to keep power flowing around the clock more likely.The advance is driven in part by vehicle manufacturers,who are placi ng big bets on battery-powered electric vehicles.Although electric cars are still a rarity on roads now,this massive investment could change the pictur e rapidly in coming years.While there’s a long way to go,the trend lines for renewables are spi king.The pace of change in energy sources appears to be speeding up—p erhaps just in time to have a meaningful effect in slowing climate change. What Washington does—or doesn’t do—to promote alternative energy may mean less and less at a time of a global shift in thought.26.The word“plummeting”(Line 3,Para.2)is closest in meaning to.A.stabilizingB.changingC.fallingD.rising27.According to Paragraph 3,the use of renewable energy in America.A.is progressing notablyB.is as extensive as in EuropeC.faces many challengesD.has proved to be impractical28.It can be learned that in Iowa, .A.wind is a widely used energy sourceB.wind energy has replaced fossil fuelsC.tech giants are investing in clean energyD.there is a shortage of clean energy supply29.Which ofthe following is true about clean energy according to Parag raphs 5&6?A.Its application has boosted battery storage.B.It is commonly used in car manufacturing.C.Its continuous supply is becoming a reality.D.Its sustainable exploitation will remain difficult.30.It can be inferred from the last paragraph that renewable energy.A.will bring the US closer to other countriesB.will accelerate global environmental changeC.is not really encouraged by the US governmentD.is not competitive enough with regard to its costText 3The power and ambition of the giants of the digital economy is astonis hing—Amazon has just announced the purchase of the upmarket grocery chain Whole Foods for$13.5bn,but two years ago Facebook paid even more than that to acquire the WhatsApp messaging service,which doesn’t have any physical product at all. What WhatsApp offered Facebook was a n intricate and finely detailed web of its users’friendships and social lives.Facebook promised the European commission then that it would not lin k phone numbers to Facebook identities,but it broke the promise almost as soon as the deal went through.Even without knowing what was in the messages,the knowledge of who sent them and to whom was enormousl y revealing and still could be.What political journalist,what party whip,w ould not want to know the makeup of the WhatsApp groups in which Ther esa May’s enemies are currentlyplotting?It may be that the value of Whole Foods to Amazon is not so much the 460 shops it owns, but the records of which customers have purchased what.Competition law appears to be the only way to address these imbalan ces of power.But it is clumsy. For one thing, it is very slow compared to the pace of change within the digital economy. By the time a problem has been addressed and remedied it may have vanished in the marketplace, to be replaced by new abuses of power.But there is a deeper conceptual problem, too. Competition law as presently interpreted deals with financial disadvantage to consumers and this is not obvious when the users of th ese services don’t pay for them.The users of their services are not their customers.That would be the people who buy advertising from them—and Facebook and Google,the two virtual giants,dominate digital advertising to the disadvantage of all other media and entertainment companies.The product they’re selling is data,and we,the users,convert our liv es to data for the benefit of the digital giants. Just as some ants farm the bugs called aphidsfor the honeydew they produce when they feed, so Go ogle farms us for the data that our digital lives yield.Ants keep predatoryinsects away from where their aphids feed; Gmail keeps the spammers ou t of our inboxes.It doesn’t feel like a human or democratic relationship,ev en if both sides benefit..31.According to Paragraph 1, Facebook acquired WhatsApp for its.A.digital productser informationC.physical assetsD.quality service32.Linking phone numbers to Facebook identities may.A.worsen political disputesB.mess up customer recordsC.pose a risk to Facebook usersD.mislead the European commission33.According to the author,competition law.A.should serve the new market powersB.may worsen the economic imbalanceC.should not provide just one legal solutionD.cannot keep pace with the changing marketpetition law as presently interpreted can hardly protect Facebook users because.A.they are not defined as customersB.they are not financially reliableC.the services are generally digitalD.the services are paid for by advertisers35.The ants analogy is used to illustrate.A.a win-win business model between digital giantsB.a typical competition pattern among digital giantsC.the benefits provided for digital giants’customersD.the relationship between digital giants and their usersText 4To combat the trap of putting a premium on being busy,Cal Newport,a uthor of Deep work: Rules for Focused Success in a Distracted world,reco mmends building a habit of “deep work”—the ability to focus without distra ction.There are a number of approaches to mastering the art of deep work —be it lengthy retreats dedicated to a specific task;developing a daily ritu al;or taking a “journalistic” approach to seizing moments of deep work wh en you can throughout the day. Whichever approach,the key is to determi ne your length of focus time and stick to it.Newport also recommends “deepscheduling” to combat constant interru ptions and get more done in less time.“At any given point,Ishould have deep work scheduled for roughly the next month.Once on the calendar I prot ect this time like Iwould a doctor’s appointment or important meeting”,he writes.Another approach to getting more done in less time is to rethink how you prioritize your day—in particular how we craft our to-do lists.Tim Harfo rd, author of Messy:The Power of Disorder to Transform Our Lives,points to a study in the early 1980s that divided undergraduates into two groups: some were advised to set out monthly goals and study activities;others we re told to plan activities and goals in much more detail,day by day.While the researchers assumed that the well-structured daily plans wou ld be most effective when it came to the execution of tasks,they were wro ng:the detailed daily plans demotivated students.Harford argues that inevit able distractions often render the daily to-do list ineffective,while leaving ro om for improvisation in such a list can reap the best results.In order to make the most of our focus and energy. We also need to embrace downtime,or as Newport suggests,“be lazy.”“Idleness is not just a vacation,an indulgence or a vice;it is as indispen sable to be brain as Vitamin D is to the body...[idleness]is, paradoxically, necessary to getting any work done,”he argues.Srini Pillay,an assistant professor of psychiatry at Harvard Medical Sch ool,believes this counter-intuitive link between downtime and productivity m ay be due to the way our brains operate When our brains switch between being focused and unfocused on a task,they tend to be more efficient.“What people don’t realise is that in order to complete these tasks the y need to use both the focus and unfocus circuits in their brain”. says Pill ay..36.The key to mastering the art of deep work is to ________.A.keep to your focus timeB.list your immediate tasksC.make specific daily plansD.seize every minute to work37. The study in the early 1980s cited by Harford shows that ________.A.distractions may actually increase efficiencyB.daily schedules are indispensable to studyingC.students are hardly motivated by monthly goalsD.detailed plans many not be as fruitful as expected38. According to Newport, idleness is ________.A.a desirable mental state for busy peopleB.a major contributor to physical healthC.an effective way to save time and energyD.an essential factor in accomplishing any work39. Pillay believes that our brains’ shift between being focused and unfocused _______.A.can result in psychological well-beingB.canbring about greater efficiencyC.is aimed at better balance in workD.is driven by task urgency40. This text is mainly about _______.A.ways to relieve the tension of busy lifeB.approaches to getting more done in less timeC.the key to eliminating distractionsD.the cause of the lack of focus timePart BDirections:Read the following text and match each of the numbered items in the left column to its corresponding information in the right column. There are two extra choices in the right column. Mark your answers on the ANSWE R SHEET. (10 points). A.Just say it. B.Be present. C.Pay a unique compliment. , places, things. E.Find the “me too”s. F.Skip the small talk.G.Ask for an opinionFive ways to make conversation with anyoneConversations are links, which means when you have a conversation with a new person a link gets formed and every conversation you have af ter that moment will strengthen the link.You meet new people every day: the grocery worker, the cab driver, n ew people at work or the security guard at the door. Simply starting a co nversation with them will form a link.Here are five simple ways that you can make the first move and starta conversation with strangers.41._A_Suppose you are in a room with someone you don’t know and someth ing within you says“I want to talk with this person”—this is something the mostly happens with all of us. You wanted to say something—the first wor d—but it just won’t come out. It feels like itis stuck somewhere, I know the feeling and here is my advice just get it out.Just think: that is the worst that could happen? They won’t talk with yo u? Well, they are not talking with you now!I truly believe that once you get that first word out everything else willjust flow.
