The technology could be used on both Google Android phones and Apple iPhones.The companies insist that they will preserve smart phone users' privacy and their technology will be used only by public health authorities to trace the spread of COVID- 19. Smart phone users can choose to use it. The software will not collect data on users' physical locations or their personally identifiable information. People who test positive would remain unknown to the public, both to the people who came in contact with them and to Apple and Google.“Privacy is of greatest importance in this effort," the companies said in a joint statement.The American Civil Libertics Union has warned that using cellphone data to handle the pandemic carries risks of “destruction of privacy”. In a statement on Friday, ACLU cyber security counsel Jennifer Granick said, The system also can't work well if people don 't trust it”. She said that the joint Apple and Google project “appears to reduce the worst privacy risks, but there is still room for improvement.” She added that the contact tracing app should be used only for public health purposes and only for the duration of this pandemic.Public health officials say the contact tracing -finding people who have been in contact with an infected person will be a key step in lifting shelter in-place restrictions.It would allow people who are known to have been exposed to the virus to isolate themselves, while letting others recover normal activities.24. What is the main purpose of the passage?A. To advertise for public health.B. To introduce a contact tracing system.C. To warn the public of risks of COVID-19.D. To raise people's awareness of privacy protection.25. What do the companies promise to do in particular?A. Warn people who test positive.B. Protect infected people's privacy.C. Work with public health authorities.D. Collect data on users physical locations.26. What does the underlined sentence in Paragraph 4 suggest?A. Public health issues are traced accurately.B. Only people's trust influences the system.C. The system is at the risk of being destroyed.D. Jennifer thinks the system should be better.27. The system is mainly designed toA. ensure infected people's recoveryB. guarantee people's normal activitiesC. help prevent the spread of COVID-19D. encourage all the people to isolate themselvesThe U.S. Postal Service (USPS) continues to bleed red ink. It reported a net loss of $5.6 billion for fiscal 2016, the 10th straight year its expenses have exceeded revenue. Meanwhile, it has more than $ 120 billion in unfunded liabilities, mostly for employee health and retirement costs. There are many bankruptcies. Fundamentally, the USPS is in a historic squeeze between technological change that has permanently decreased demand for its bread-and-butter product, first-class mail, and a regulatory structure that denies management in the flexibility to adjust its operations to the new reality.And interest groups ranging from postal unions to greeting-card makers exert self-interested pressure on the USPS's ultimate overseer-Congress-insisting that whatever else happens to the Postal Service, aspects of the status quo they depend on get protected. This is why repeated attempts at reform legislation have failed in recent years, leaving the Postal Service unable to pay its bills except by deferring vital modernization.Now comes word that everyone involved--Democrats, Republicans, the Postal Service, the unions and the system's heaviest users--has finally agreed on a plan to fix the system. Legislation is moving through the House that would save USPS an estimated $28.6 billion over five years, which could help pay for new vehicles, among other survival measures. Most of the money would come from a penny-per-letter permanent rate increase and from shifting postal retirees into Medicare. The latter step would largely offset the financial burden of annually pre-funding retiree health care, thus addressing a long-standing complaint by the USPS and its union.If it clears the House, this measure would still have to get through the Senate--where someone is bound to point out that it amounts to the bare, bare minimum necessary to keep the Postal Service afloat, not comprehensive reform. There s no change to collective bargaining at the USPS, a major omission considering that personnel accounts for 80 percent of the agency’s costs. Also missing is any discussion of eliminating Saturday letter delivery. That common-sense change enjoys wide public support and would save the USPS $2 billion per year. But postalspecial-interest groups seem to have killed it, at least in the House. The emerging consensus around the bill is a sign that legislators are getting frightened about a politically embarrassing short-term collapse at the USPS. It is not, however, a sign that they’re getting serious about transforming the postal system for the 21st century.28. The financial problem with the USPS is caused partly byA. its unbalanced budgetB. its rigid managementC. the cost for technical upgradingD. the withdrawal of bank support29. The long-standing complaint by the USPS and its unions can be addressed byA. removing its burden of retiree health careB. making more investment in new vehiclesC. adopting a new rate-increase mechanismD. attracting more first-class mail users30. In the last paragraph, the author seems to view legislators withA. respectB. toleranceC. discontentD. gratitude31. Which of the following would be the best title for the text?A. The USPS Starts to Miss Its Good Old Days.B. The Postal Service: Keep Away from My Cheese.C. The USPS: Chronic Illness Requires a Quick Cure.D. The Postal Service Needs More than a Band-Aid.DOne of the classic science- fiction treatments of the end of civilization was The Death of Grass, by John Christopher, in which a mysterious sickness struck down all the grasses on which most of the world's agriculture is based, from rice to wheat. In the end, politics among the survivors of disease, war and famine were reduced to bitter fratricidal ( 手足相残) struggle over a defensible potato patch. Like most of the so-called "comfortable disaster" novels, this could be criticized for optimism. Depressing as a future of famine and the war of all against all might seem, the consequences were largely limited to humans.However, the threatened extinction of insect populations around the world raises the prospect of a much less general disaster, which would involve plants, birds, fish, small mammals, and everything else depending on insects. That's just the start, other species, and we ourselves, depend on the animals and plants that need insects. When they go, we go. This is not just a greater disaster. It's a much more reasonable one. The most recent study has concluded that insect biomass is decreasing around the world at a rate of 2.5% a year. At that rate, half the insects in the world will be gone in 50 years' time, and all of them in a century - though no one will be keeping track of centuries then.The chief driver of this disaster is unchecked human greed. In spite of our individual and even collective cleverness, we behave as a species with as little foresight as a colony of nematode (线虫) worms that will consume everything that it can reach until all is gone and it dies off naturally. The challenge of behaving more intelligently than creatures that have no brain at all will not be easy. But unlike the nematodes, we know what to do. The UN convention on biodiversity was signed in 1992, alongside the convention on climate change. Giving it the strength to hold back our appetites is now urgent. Biodiversity is not an optional extra. It is the web that holds all life, including human life.The two main expressions of greed that speed this apocalypse ( 世界末日) are global warming and industrial agriculture. It appears that most of the damage is being done in the developed world by farming practices. The use of giant fields, lack of shelter for insects of any sort at all, whether they are harmful to human interests or not, and where the plants are drenched in long-lasting pesticides, is fatal for uncounted billions of insects. The effects of this kind of farming reach beyond the fields immediately affected, too. There has been a huge loss of aquatic insect species from the rivers into which the products of industrial agriculture are flushed by rain. Even in German nature reserves, which are by definition protected from the use of pesticides, there have been steep falls in insect populations because so many of the most widely used ones are persistent and prevent breeding.32. Which of the following statements about The Death of Grass is true?A. It holds an optimistic attitude towards famine in the future.B. It understates the severity of the disaster facing the world.C. It gives a vivid account of the most serious famine in history.D. It demonstrates how evil human nature turns out to be.33. In paragraph 2, the writer mentions the most recent study in order toA. prove that the prediction about the great disaster makes senseB. show how soon the insects worldwide will go extinctC. argue for the necessity to protect insect populationsD. suggest a possible approach to increasing insect biomass34. What can be inferred from the passage?A. Humans are similar to nematode in that both of them lack foresight.B. We haven't done enough about maintaining biodiversity.C. Modern farming is to blame for the threatened extinction of insects.D. Germany sets a good example by minimizing the use of pesticides.35. What will the author probably discuss after the last paragraph?A. How industrial agriculture brings about apocalypse.B. What influence pesticides may have on people's lives.C. Why insect populations in Germany are on the decline.D. Where unchecked human greed can also be spotted.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。

I wish I had been somewhere else more interesting.(Text 2)M: Katie, I waited for you for ages.W: I left home in plenty of time, but then there was a car accident and the bus got stuck for ages. So decided to get off and walk. Sorry! I should have taken the subway.(Text 3)W: Has your aunt left, David?M: Yes, she went back home on the 17th. She was meant to come on the 13th but something happened, so it wasn’t till the 15th.(Text 4)W: Could you draw up these contracts for me? I have a meeting with the customer in the afternoon.M: I’m leaving to catch a flight in about 30 minutes. Hawkins is sending me to visit the Chicago office. I only came in to get some papers.(Text 5)M: I’d like to get a plant for the office and don’t want something I have to water frequently. I’m not sure what kind to get.W: I can help you with that. How about those flowers?M: No, I’m allergic to so me of them.(Text 6)M: Are you taking any vacation in the next few months?W: I’m not sure. Why do you ask?M: I’m trying to create a schedule of vacations.W: Well, our kids are out of school in August, but I was thinking of going away in October. I can’t go before then. I have to wait until after the end-of-September marketing conference.

To our left, snow-covered mountains disappear into clouds that seem almost close enough to touch. On the plain in front of us, we can just make out a herd of graceful animals. This is why we stay here.Tibetan antelopes live mainly on the plains of Tibet. Watching them move slowly across the green grass, I'm struck by their beauty. I'm also reminded of the danger they are in. They are being hunted illegally for their valuable fur.My guide is Zhaxi, a villager from Changtang. He works at the Changtang National Nature Reserve. The reserve is a safe place for the animals and plants of northwestern Tibet. To Zhaxi, protecting the wildlife is a way of life. “We're not trying to save the animals,” he says. “Actually, we're trying to save ourselves.”In the 1980s and 1990s the population of Tibetan antelopes dropped by more than 50 percent. Hunters were shooting antelopes to make money. Their living places were becoming smaller as new roads and railways were built.In order to save Tibetan antelopes, the Chinese government placed them under national protection. Zhaxi and volunteers watched over the antelopes day and night to keep them safe from attacks. Bridges and gates were added to let the antelopes move easily and keep them safe from cars and trains.The measures were effective. The antelope population has recovered and in June 2015, the Tibetan antelope wasremovedfrom the endangered species list. The government, however, does not intend to stop the protection program since the threat to the Tibetan antelope has not yet disappeared. Only when we learn to exist in harmony with nature can we stop being a threat to wildlife and to our planet.8. What can we learn from Zhaxi's words in paragraph 3?A. Protecting the animals can make money.B. Protecting the animals is protecting ourselves.C. He is not fond of protecting the animals.D. The reserve is only safe for wild animals.9. What is mainly talked about in paragraph 4?A. Why hunters hunt Tibetan antelopes.B. Why antelopes' living places changed.C. Why antelopes' number dropped greatly.D. Why the 1980s and the 1990s are unusual.10. What does the underlined word “removed” in the last paragraph probably mean?A. Deleted.B. Changed.C. Migrated.D. Recognized.11. What might be the future condition of Tibetan antelopes according to the last paragraph?A. They will be over-populated.B. They will be a threat to man and other wildlife.C. They will be on the endangered species list again.D. They will be in harmony with nature and humans.DAbout a month after I joined Facebook, I got a call from Lori Goler, a highly regarded senior director of marketing at eBay. She made it clear this was a business call. “I want to apply to work with you at Facebook,” she said. “Instead of recommending myself, I want to ask you: What is your biggest problem, and how can I solve it?”My jaw hit the floor. I had hired thousands of people over the previous decade and no one had ever said anything remotely like that. People usually focus on finding the right role for themselves, with the implication that their skills will help the company. Lori put Facebook’s needs front and center. It was a killer approach. I responded, “Recruiting is my biggest problem. And, yes, you can solve it.”Lori never dreamed she would work in recruiting, but she jumped in. She even agreed to trade earnings for acquiring new skills in a new field. Lori did a great job running recruiting and within months was promoted to her current job, leading People@Facebook.The most common metaphor for careers is a ladder, but this concept no longer applies to most workers. As of 2010, the average American had eleven jobs from the ages of eighteen to forty-six alone. Lori often quotes Pattie Sellers, who came up with a much better metaphor: “Careers are a jungle gym, not a ladder.”As Lori describes it, there’s only one way to get to the top of a ladder, but there are many ways to get to the top of a jungle gym. The jungle gym model benefits everyone, but especially women who might be starting careers, switching careers, getting blocked by external barriers, or reentering the workforce after taking time off. The ability to create a unique path with occasional dips, detours (弯路), and even dead ends presents great views of many people, not just those at the top. On a ladder, most climbers are stuck staring at the butt of the person above.12. Why did Lori make the call?A. She helped Facebook to solve the biggest problem.B. She wanted to make a business deal with Facebook.C. She tried to ask for a pay rise in Facebook.D. She wanted to become an employee in Facebook.13. What impressed “I” by Lori?A. Lori was good at running recruiting.B. Lori attached great importance to Facebook’s needs.C. Lori jumped in Facebook with no adequate experience.D. Lori was skilled in marketing at eBay.14. What can we infer from the passage?A. Now all people don’t tend to climb the ladder.B. None on the ladder can enjoy the great views.C. Jungle gyms offer limited exploration for employees.D. A pregnant woman, jobless, benefits little from the jungle gyms.15. What is the best title of the passage?A. It’s a Jungle Gym, Not a Ladder.B. Facebook’s Biggest Problem.C. Applying for a Job in Facebook.D. A Jungle Gym is Better than a Ladder.第二节(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)阅读下面短文,从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。
