For the blanks with a given word, fill in each blank with the proper form of the given word; for the other blanks, use one word that best fits each blank.We want our children to succeed in school and, perhaps even more importantly, in life. But the paradox(悖论) is that our children can only truly succeed (21) ______ they first learn how to fail. Consider the finding that world-class figure skaters fall over more often in practice than low-level figure skaters. Why are the really good skaters falling over the most?The reason is actually quite simple. Top skaters are constantly challenging themselves in practice. (22) ______ (stretch) their limitations, they keep trying their best. They fall over so often, but it is precisely why they learn so fast. Lower-level skaters have a quite different approach. They are always attempting jumps they can already do very easily, (23) ______ (remain) within their comfort zone. This is why they don’t fall over. In a superficial sense, they look successful, because they are always on their feet. Never (24) ______ (fail) in practice prevents them from making progress.(25) ______ is true of skating is also true of life. James Dyson worked through 5,126 prototypes (原型) for his newest vacuum before coming up with the design(26) ______ made his fortune. These failures were essential to the pathway of learning. As Dyson put(27) ______: “You can’t develop new technologyunless you test new ideas and learn when things go wrong. Failure is essential to inventi on.”In healthcare, however, things are very different. Clinicians don’t like to admit to failure, partly because they have strongegos (自我) —particularly the senior doctors—and partly because they fear litigation (诉讼). Theconsequence is that (28) ______ ______ learning from failure, healthcare often covers up failure. The direct consequence is that the same mistakes (29) ______ (repeat). According to the Journal of Patient Safety, 400,000 people die every year in American hospitals alone due to preventable error. (30) ______ healthcare learns to respond positively to failure, things will not improve.Section BDirections: Fill in each blank with a proper word chosen from the box.

And it’s all because of technology.To the psychologists, sociologists, and media experts who study them, their digital devices set this new group 31 , even from their Millennial (千禧年的) elders, who are quite familiar with technology. They want to be constantly connected and available in a way even their older brothers and sisters don’t quite get. These differences may seem slight, but they 32 the appearance of a new generation.The 33 between Millennialelders and this younger group was so evident to psychologist Larry Rosen that he has 34 the birth of a new generation in a new book, Rewired: Understanding the ingeneration and the Way They Learn, out next month. Rosen says the technically 35 life experience of those born since the early 1990s is so different from the Millennial elders he wrote about in his 2007 book, Me, MySpace and I: Parenting the Net Generation, that they distinguishthemselves as a new generation, which he hasgiven them the nickname of “ingeneration”.Rosen says portability is the key. They are 36 from their wireless devices, which allow them to text as well as talk, so they can be constantly connected—even in class, where cell phones are 37 banned.Many researchers are trying to determine whether technology somehow causes the brains of young people to be wired differently. “They should be distracted and should perform more poorly than they do,” Rosen says. “But findings show teens 38 distractions much better than we would predict by their age and their brain development.”Because these kids are more devoted to technology at younger ages, Rosen says, the educational system has to change 39 .“The growth on the use of technology with children is very rapid, and we run the risk of being out of step with this generation as far as how they learn and how they think. We have to give them options because they want their world 40 ,” Rosen says.III. Reading ComprehensionSection ADirections: For each blank in the following passage there are four words or phrases marked A, B, C and D. Fill in each blank with the word or phrase that best fits the context.After my public lectures on evolution, someone in the audience asks, “Are we still evolving?” People want to know if humans are getting taller, smarter, better looking or more athletic. My answer is truthful but 41 : We’re almost certainly evolving, but w e don’t know in what42 or how fast.We’ve seen some evolution in our species over the past few millennia, but it was detected by reconstructing history from DNA sequences. For example, we know that during the past 10,000 years, several populations ofhumans — those keeping sheep, cows or goats for milk— gained the ability to digest dairy products. This quality was 43 in our earlier ancestors who, after babyhood, never encountered milk. And in the past 3,000 years, Tibetans have acquired 44 adaptations that allowed them to develop well in their high-altitude, low-oxygen home. But these well-documented changes are limited to particular populations, so the 45 for recent evolution of our entire species, remains not much.The authors of “Evolving Ourselves” 46 . Not only, they claim, are we evolving faster than ever, but we’re doing it to ourselves. Juan Enriquez and Steve Gullans argue that humans have 47 evolution — not just in our own species but virtually in all species: “For bet ter or worse, we are increasingly in charge. We are the primary drivers of 48 . We will directly and indirectly determine what lives, what dies, where, and when. We are in a different phase of evolution: the future of life is now 49 .”According to the authors, we’ve replaced natural selection with what they call “50 selection.” Overfishing, for example, has reduced the average size of many fish species, for taking the biggest fishes is 51 those smaller fishes.Yet while there’s no doubt that we’re changing the planet, the claim that we’re completely changing evolution on the planet 52 . Let’s take those fish that are evolving to reproduce smaller and younger for example. This 53 has been documented in many species that we eat, but this is just a minuscule fraction (极小的一部分) of the 30,000 known species of fish.The authors speak with 54 assurance about how our species is evolving in response to nearly everything. When they claim, for example, our ingestion (摄取) of drugs and exposure to ch emicals mean that “our children’s brains are evolving fast,” they are abusing (滥用) the word “55 .” Our children’s brains may be changing fast in response to the new pharmacological (药理学的) environment, but change alone is not evolution.41. A. instructive B. disappointing C. decisive D. conflicting42. A. direction B. region C. frequency D. condition43. A. beneficial B. adaptable C. unique D. useless44. A. unproved B. changeable C. genetic D. mysterious45. A. study B. evidence C. interest D. implication46. A. disagree B. support C. follow D. approve47. A. delayed B. overdone C. neglected D. controlled48. A. unbalance B. disaster C. change D. disturbance49. A. in our hands B. out of order C. in peace D. out of control50. A. destructive B. unnatural C. adventurous D. emotional51. A. by means of B. at the cost of C. in favor of D. for the protection of52. A. makes no sense B. makes great impressionC. calls attentionD. comes to an end53. A. problem B. mistake C. phenomenon D. obstacle54. A. strong B. baseless C. sensitive D. persuasive55. A. environment B. technology C. exposure D. evolutionSection BDirections:Read the following three passages. Each passage is followed by several questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage you have just read.(A)Once again DC Comics and Warner Bros. have divided fans and critics over their latest superhero film.There had been worrying news about Justice League in the months before its release, with a lot of reshoots of scenes, a new director being brought in to finish the film after original director Zack Snyder’s tragic loss of his daughter and, of course, a lot of talk about Ben Affleck’s future in the r ole of Batman.Some people are saying that Justice League is another big disappointment, that it could have been incredible and instead fails to really entertain. Others say that Warner Bros. have finally got it right and that the future for the League looks bright.My opinion lies somewhere in the middle. The film was by no means a disappointment: it was exciting, funny and a lot of fun to watch. There’s something special about watching the heroes from your childhood brought to life on the big screen and maybe that is affecting my opinion.However, I will say that a lot of work needs to be done if the producer wants to make a great success. Although the film was good, it was obvious which scenes had been reshot and how the characters had been changed. I also have to mention the several scenes in which the special effects were very badly done; these are the kinds of problems that you don’t expect to see in a film with such a big budget.Another point to add is that it is good to see the producer making Superman slightly a brighter character and adding some jokes to the plot to keep things fun. But the producer must be careful not to make the mistake that another film producer—here, not mentioning the name—is coming very close to doing: turning all of the films into bright and colorful shows and losing a lot of seriously good stories.In the end, Justice League is not a perfect film but it is definitely not a terrible one. A lot of work is still to be done but I hope that DC does not completely lose its darker side.56. Before the release of Justice League, many people showed their ______.A. pity for the director, Zack SnyderB. concern about the film’s qualityC. higher expectation of the new directorD. support for the actor, Ben Affleck57. According to the author, what’s special about Justice League?A. It advocates social justice.B. It brings lots of fun to the audience.C. It has some brave heroes.D. It brings back childhood memories.58. In Paragraph 5 the author mainly wants to express his ______.A. views on the film’s weaknessB. advice to the film’s directorC. love for the filmD. expectation of the film’s sequels59. The author mentioned another film producer to ______.A. stress the importance of fun in a filmB. show Justice League’s lack of a serious plotC. serve as a warning to the producer of Justice LeagueD. set an example for the producer of Justice LeagueB)60. According to the passage, it is good habit to ______ when you are writing your email.A. include all of your social network linksB. send your emails to all of your coworkersC. use different font size to make the massage vividD. keep the subject line brief61. Which of the following statements might the author agree with?A. The subject line is filled with Hey instead of being left blank.B. Using capitals is acceptable when offering congratulations.C. You are supposed to reply to only one person at a time.D. Social network links should be included in your signature.62. In which of the following sentences does the phrase “cry wolf” is correctly used?A. Economists are just crying wolf while actually the economic future is not so bad.B. The government is always crying wolf and has never kept the promise to reduce taxes.C. He cried wolf when he received a letter saying that his application had been rejected.D. He just cried wolf in comforting her when he didn’t know what had really happened.(C)The recession (衰退) of 2008-09 was remarkable in rich countries for its intensity, the followingrecovery for its weakness. The labour market has also broken the rules, as new research from the OECD, a think-tank of mainly rich countries, shows in its annual Employment Outlook.Young people always suffer in recessions. Employers stop hiring them; and they often get rid of new recruits because they are easier to dismiss. But in previous episodes, such as the recessions of the 1970s, 1980s and 1990s, older workers were also kicked off. This time is different. During the financial crisis in 2008, and since, they have done better than other age groups.The researchers focus on movements in “non-employment” as a share of the total population in three age groups between the final quarters of 2007 and 2012. This measure has the advantage of including not just unemployment, where people are looking for work, but also inactivity, where people are not seeking jobs. Whereas the average non-employment rate in the OECD has risen by four percentage points among young people and by one-and-a-half points among 25-to 54-year-olds, it has fallen by two points among the 55-64 age group.Why have older employees done so well? In some southern European countries they benefit from job protection not afforded to younger workers, but that did not really help them in past recessions. What has changed, says Stefano Scarpetta, head of the OECD’s employment directorate, is that firms now bear the full costs of getting rid of older staff. In the past,early-retirement policies provided by governments (in the mistaken belief that these would help young people) made it cheaper to push grey-haired workers out of the door. These have largely stopped.Many will argue that older workers have done better at the expense of the young. That view is wrongheaded. First, it is a fallacy that a job gained for one person is a job lost for another; there is no fixed amount of work. And second, as the report shows, young and old people are by and large not substitutes in the workplace. They do different types of work in different types of occupation: younger people are keen on IT firms, for example, whereas older folk tend to be employed in more traditional industries. There are plenty of things that should be done to help the young jobless, but kicking older workers out of the workplace is not one of them.63. By saying “The labour market has also broken the rules”, the author means ______.A. young employees were protected by the governmentB. young employees suffered moderately in labour marketC. old employees suffered very little in the labour marketD. The recession had little impact on labour market64. What do we know about “early-retirement policies” mentioned in the 4thparagraph?A. They proved to be little use and nearly no longer in effect.B. They have effectively helped young employees.C. They financially supported the elderly people.D. They have gain popularity in southern European countries.65. The word “fallacy” (in the last paragraph) probably means “______”.A. common beliefB. wrong conceptC. acceptable assumptionD. wise statement66. Which of the following might the author agree with?A. Early-retirement policies should have been well adoptedby governments.B. Young people should be encouraged into traditional industries.C. Supportive policies should be made to help elderly people when crisis occurs.D. Old people’s remaining in jobs doesn’t necessarily threaten young people’s jobs.Section CDirections:Read the passage carefully. Fill in each blank with a proper sentence given in the box. Each sentence can be used only once. Note that there are two more sentences than you need.A. It takes continuous time and effort to be successful in any area.B. The general rule goes that the harder you try, the greater results you get.C. Many old beliefs are being performed these days and are followed blindly.D. It always takes tests and then fails us to learn anything worthwhile.E. However, in most circumstances your effort and attempt go well alongside with your desired achievement.F. But the price we pay to realize this is high because it takes a great amount of courage to follow your own path.Life is not easy when you are looking for something worthwhile and ready to learn from the best68 However, people usually get discouraged when it takes more time than they thought it would. At this time, people refer only to people who have already achieved what they want to do. Look at any successful person and you’ll notice one thing common in all of them: they took time to learn and mastered their skill like no one else. There is no elevator to success and you have to take the stairs.Be brave to take the road less traveled. In our whole life, we always want to follow the same path that everyone suggests, do the same thing everyone does, take the same career path everyone takes, wear the same clothes everyone wears, and hang out with the same people we work with. Why? Because we are scared to fail. But when you get bored of life, you realize that you are not meant to do what everyone does and that your destiny isParents sometimes force their children to select a career they don’t want because other children have selected that career.Worst of all, people follow them without even asking.There is no harm in believing in old beliefs but when you pursue them before your interest, sooner or later you’ll realize that you should first do what you think is right.IV. Summary WritingDirections: Read the following passage. Summarize the main idea and the main point(s) of the passage in no more than 60 words. Use your own words as far as possible.As is known to all, many things can be measured in terms of data. Sometimes data can indeed tell the truth. With the help of data we can easily know the price of a can of Coke in the supermarket or the result of a football match or the temperature of a certain day. Obviously, data can make our life easier and more comfortable. What is more important, data seem to be fairer than words or statements. If the data are true, we don’t have to worry about being cheated. Nowadays, as lies exist in the world, data are expected to tell the truth. Therefore, many of us would rather believe data.On the other hand, if we judge things only by data from the so-called specific research, aren’t we a little too narrow-minded? Many people often treat the so-called specific data unwisely just to make sure that they are making the right decisions. But sometimes we may find t hat data aren’t everything.For example, how can you tell that somebody isn’t a good student just because he or she doesn’t get high marks in the final examination?There are many things in our life which cannot be measured by data. For example, the degree of your feeling happy in your life, the depth of love between you and your friends, and the faith you have in your country. We canonly feel them in our hearts but can never express them in data.There is no doubt that analyzing the exact data is important to assessment of an actual event. But data should be dealt with wisely. We often get wrong data which mislead us. We should try our best to be wise thinkers. Remember, data have no feeling but we humans have. Data do not mean much to people if we do not have the abilities to analyze the data with the knowledge and confidence to judge whether they are true or false.Data are data after all. Life is much more colorful than the pale data. So give the cold data a warm heart and we’ll find that the world is far more wonderful than the pale data can describe.V.

There are soldiers on the streets, and the country (21) ______ (occupy) by the Nazis. There isn't enough to eat, and the world is at war. Then the Nazis decide to"relocate"the country's Jewish population. The Danes don't know (22) ______ their friends and neighbors are being taken away. They don't know where they are going, either. But they do know that it is wrong and dangerous and that they must help.Number the Stars is a very powerful novel. During World War II, the Nazis (23) ______ (kill) millions of people in Europe. Many of those people were Jewish. But in Denmark, almost all of the Jewish population was saved. Number the Stars is a work of fiction, but it tells the true story of the Jewish (24) ______ (rescue) during the war. The moving plot is driven by justice, danger and excitement. But the book also deals with significant ideas that are much (25) ______ (big) than the story itself.Annemarie must learn that evil doesn't just appear in fairy tales.

Women are just as able to make decisions about their 31 leaders as men. But 200 years ago, most people didn't think so.As late as the middle of the 19th century only men voted in most Western countries. A few countries or states let women vote in local elections. But women voting was far from 32 . At that time, people believed that women belonged in the home. That meant they should not get involved with public life.But women in Europe, North America and New Zealand began 33 this situation. They believed that they should have a(n) 34 in their government's leaders. In 1792 an English novelist named Mary Wollstonecraft 35 that women should be able to vote. In the United States, Lucretia Mott and Elizabeth Cady Stanton were important figures. They met whilecampaigning to put a(n) 36 to slavery. In the process, they decided that women also should have more 37 .Yet despite the 38 of these women neither Great Britain nor the United States was the first country to let women vote. That honor goes to New Zealand, which changed their law on September 19, 1893. This was because of women like Kate Shepherd. She led a group that presented petitions（请愿书）to their parliament three years in a row. Shepherd is now honored on New Zealand's $10 bill.New Zealand was followed by Australia in 1902 and Finland in 1906. By this time, some U.S. states and territories allowed women to vote. But the country as a whole didn't give women the right until after World War I.In many countries, the right to hold political office came along with the right to vote. And women have 39 that right. In many countries, women have even held their country's highest office. All of that is due to the efforts of the women who fought for a(n) 40 voice.III. Reading ComprehensionSection ADirections: For each blank in the following passage there are four words or phrases marked A, B, C and D. Fill in each blank with the word or phrase that best fits the context.The search for new, clean energy sources has occupied the attention of scientists and politicians for years. One common 41 for green energy is the wind. A new twist on this old resource could cause the energy output of wind-power plants to increase greatly.Standard wind-power plants rely on strong support and 42 can only reach a height of 200 meters or so. Higher than that, winds tend to be stronger and steadier, but the challenge is 43 how to obtain the energy from those winds.Delft University of Technology in the Netherlands and Karlsruhe University of Applied Sciences in Germany have formed a kite-power research group. The group is working to develop kites with inflatable（可充气的）wings 44 to electrical generators (发电机) on the ground.The research group's goal is to design a kite that can operate on its own for 24 hours. Research has begun, but many challenges remain, including making the generators more 45 and perfecting the automatic flight control and the structure of the kites. Nevertheless in June 2012, they demonstrated that their kites could operate 46 at an altitude of up to 700 meters.Meanwhile, in Italy, researchers are working on a(n) 47 power generator that relies on kites when the generator called KiteGen, senses the wind blowing, kites are 48 from the ends of poles with high-resistance cables to control their height and angle. These cables are able to move the kites if the system senses coming objects 49 planes, helicopters or even individual birds. The kites themselves are light, tough and able to reach fairly high altitudes. They loop（绕行）around in the wind, which sets the center of the generator in motion, 50 electric current.KiteGen has the 51 to be very cost-effective in the long run. After the original cost of designing and setting up the plant, little 52 investment will be necessary, apart from standard maintenance. The plant also requires 53 little space, which makes it ideal for cities and means that multiple plants can be set up to provide even more 54 .Kite power has the potential to greatly 55 on current wind-power strategies. In thefuture, it may be an efficient, cost-effective supplement to the other sources of energy we use, or even a replacement for some of them.41.A.resolution B.proposal C.resource D.substitute42.A.generally B.frequently C.continually D.regularly43.A.carrying out B.figuring out C.breaking out D.picking out44.A.chosen B.applied C.collected D.connected45.A.efficient plete C.powerful D.positive46.A.actively B.passively C.automatically D.artificially47.A.strange B.similar C.different D.original48.A.fastened B.revealed C.tailored D.released49.A.except for B.instead of C.such as D.due to50.A.producing B.inventing C.promoting D.developing51.A.qualification B.potential C.trend D.intention52.A.normal B.formal C.additional D.alternate53.A.concretely B.abstractly C.thoroughly D.relatively54.A.energy B.strength C.technology D.opportunity55.A.focus B.extend C.improve D.transferSection BDirections:Read the following three passages. Each passage is followed by several questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage you have just read.(A)Many people experience problems with their spine(脊椎) as they age. The tissue that protects the joints in the spine gradually breaks down. As a consequence, the bones in the spine begin to rub against each other. This further harms the tissue as well as the bones. The result is pain in the joints and, sometimes, in nerves near the spine.This painful problem is actually a disease called osteoporosis. Some people are more at risk of osteoporosis because of genes that they inherited from their ancestors. Extremely heavy people are also more likely to suffer from this disease because their extra weight puts much pressure on their joints. Fortunately, there are steps that people can take to help prevent osteoporosis from developing in their spine.The most important step is exercise. Stretches can help the muscles around the spine relax and allow bones to shift into better alignment(排列). Strength exercises with light weights or body weight exercises like pushups can also help by strengthening the muscles around the spine. However, people should not overdo these exercises, as repeated motions can strain the muscles around the spine. Trying to lift heavy weights with poor technique can have the same effect.Another important factor is diet. It affects the health of the spine because many vitamins are necessary for bones and nerves. These include B vitamins and omega-3 fatty acids, all of whichhelp keep nerves healthy. People can get more B vitamins and omega 3 fatty acids by taking supplements sold by stores. Another important factor is vitamin D, which is essential for strong bones. All of these vitamins and acids can be obtained from foods. Thus, people can help themselves by including them in their daily diets.56. What does this article mainly explain?A. Various aspects of a medical conditionB. The actions of viruses that cause illnessesC. Drugs often used to solve physical issuesD. The location of organs in the human body57. How does the writer begin this article?A. By predicting improvementB. By analyzing a series of dataC. By introducing minor injuriesD. By describing a gradual process58. What can readers find in this article?A. A warning about working out too hardB. A method for improving sleep qualityC. A slogan used to promote health classesD. A big criticism often aimed at doctors59.What does the article imply about supplement?A. They are mainly for youngsters.B. They are commercial products.C. They are now being researched.D. They are seldom truly effective.(B)In late March of 2018, a tear in the earth about 15meters wide and 20 meters deep suddenly appeared inKenya. It cut across roads and even split houses in two.This crack appeared out of nowhere after heavy rainsand an increase in seismic(地震的) activity. Somescientists believe that it's further proof that Africa isslowly splitting apart.Once, a very long time ago, Africa and SouthAmerica were one landmass before they separated.Similarly, one day in the very distant future, a largepart of East Africa will split off from the rest of thecontinent. This will create a new landmass and a newocean. The breakup is a result of plate tectonics (板块运动), the gradual motion of different parts of theEarth's crust.When plates of the Earth separate and tear away from each other, it is called rifting. The result is a rift valley. Scientists don't understand the exact mechanism behind rifting, but the results are easy to observe in the East African Rift System( EARS). That's why studying this part of the world is so important.The East African Rift System begins in the north in Ethiopia, where three plates are movingaway from each other. Two of them are continental plates, the African and Arabian plates. They are tectonic plates that have a large landmass above water. The third is the Somali plate, considered a minor plate, which is steadily moving away from the other two. But don't plan on visiting the new ocean anytime soon. The plates are moving at a rate of about 6 millimeters a year. At that speed, millions of years will pass before a new ocean is formed.EARS is not all bad news for Kenya. A rift valley is composed of an area where there is increased volcanic activity and thinned planetary crust. This makes it easier to take advantage of the power of steam. For Kenya, this might be an answer to the country's electrical problems. The drought conditions that frequently occur there make it difficult to produce energy. But the geothermal (地热的) power plants going online in 2019 will allow them to produce clean energy with very little water.60.What can be concluded from the passage?A.A war will certainly break out in Africa.B.A disaster will suddenly strike Africa.C.A geological structure will change in Africa.D.A new country will come into being in Africa.61.Which of the following plates might be surrounded by water according to the passage?A.East Africa.B. Somali plate.C. Arabian plate.D. Africa plate.62.What problem may be solved in Kenya thanks to the cracking?A.Poverty.B. Economy.C. Drought.D. Energy.(C)Are you worried about money? If so, I have some good news for you. Someone once said, "If all your problems can be solved with money, then you don't have any. "I get the point. Unless you are on the edge of losing everything and living in your car (which is a very sad thing that happens to people every day), your perceptions of your problems may not be serving you well.Let's take a look. Can you pay your living expenses and support your family? If so, you are OK. Even if you are a family that just barely breaks even every month, you have to count that as a blessing. Most of us also have those terrible, surprising unexpected bills. But unless you lose your job or your mind, don't you always find a way to take care of those expenses?PERTINENT（切中要害的）QUESTIONSTo see if you worry too much about finances, ask yourself a couple of questions. Do you wake up worried about money? Do you check your bank balance and look at upcoming bills more than once every few days or even multiple times a day? If so, then you may have a little financial insecurity going on. Let's look at getting it under control. If it's making you crazy, it can make your family a little crazy too. This type of anxiousness is passed on to others, which is important to remember whenever you have the urge to share your fears.TOO MUCH INFORMATIONTMI (too much information) happens because it seems that by releasing pent-up（压抑的）feelings of anxiety you will feel better and hopefully more supported. And this can happen, but not with your loved ones because they will take on your fear and magnify it. Talk instead with yourfinancial advisor, your bank manager or your therapist. Laying your financial fears at the feet of your family is not good for them or for you. Yes, be honest about any problems, but if you get emotional, so will those closest to you.POSITIVE ACTIONIt's hard to be dispassionate about money, but honestly, it's really the best way to get this issue solved. You have to look at it from a practical standpoint. Go over your debts, look closely at your assets and determine the best thing for you to do with your time right now.Maybe you need to use this time to get your books in order on your computer or use it to job hunt or to promote your business. Then again, you may need to hire an accountant and go on some interviews. The point is simple: the only way to relieve yourself of the uncomfortable feeling of financial pressure is to take some kind of positive action.63.Which of the following is true according to the passage?A.Financial problems are not vital ones in everyone's daily life.B.You'd better calm down when you have financial problems.C.You needn't worry about unexpected bills even if you're out of work.D.When you have financial fears, remember to share feelings with others.64.The passage implies that ______.A.the best way to deal with money problem is to take positive actionB.as long as we share feelings with others, money fear will disappearC.we should have an optimistic attitude toward financial fearsD.any problem we meet can be solved with the help of money65.The phrase lay your financial fears at the feet of your family in the sixth paragraphprobably means ______.A.to solve financial fears caused by your familyB.to help your family smartly avoid financial fearsC.to make your family responsible for financial fearsD.to encourage your family to face financial fears bravely.66.The best title of the passage is ______.A.Perceptions of money and valueB. Passion, money and familyC. Keeping balance of psychologyD. Dealing with money worriesSection CDirections: Complete the following passage by using the sentences in the box. Each sentence can only be used once. Note that there are two sentences more than you need.A.Other people experience false guilt because of high expectations for themselves.B.It's possible that you feel guilty because you actually did something wrong.C.Others try to cover up their guilt by blaming others or becoming angry.D.It can also motivate people to avoid making similar mistakes later.E.In this case, it's important to remind yourself that you have limits.F.Moreover, guilt can result in physical and mental discomforts meanwhile.Guilt is one of the most painful emotions that humans experience but also one of the most common. Nobody enjoys feeling guilty, but this emotion serves an important purpose: It alerts aperson when he or she has done something wrong. This enables the person to make amends and work to heal relationships that were damaged by their actions. 67Nevertheless, guilt can be destructive if it is not dealt with in the right way. It can cause people to avoid others because they are too embarrassed to apologize for their actions or inaction. Some try to avoid the pain of guilt by turning to other worse habits. 68 The proper response to guilt depends on what kind of guilt you're dealing with. For false guilt, it's important to recognize that the guilt does not reflect an actual ethical failure.For example, some false guilt focuses on falling to meet expectations you had for yourself.69 No one is perfect, and no one can do everything, so admitting your limits is actually a sign of humility.It's also important to acknowledge what you are feeling. Even when you don't need to feel guilty, these feelings are real and normal. Try to balance them with positive thoughts, but realize that it often takes time for feelings to change.70 If so, don't try to conceal it. Apologize and ask for forgiveness. Learn from your mistakes, and try to avoid committing the same acts again. Getting on well with the person you hurt should make your guilty feelings fade.Guilt is painful, but it can serve a good purpose if you use it well.IV. Summary Writing71. Directions:Read the following passage. Summarize the main idea and the main point(s) of the passage in no more than 60 words. Use your own words as far as possible.Have you ever been involved in an animal rescue? This is what happened to Winter the dolphin. Winter was found off the coast of Florida in December of 2005. She was just a few months old, alone, and caught in a crab trap. The ropes from the trap were wrapped tightly around her body.The fisherman who found her called for help, and a rescue team soon arrived. The ropes had cut off the blood circulation to her tail. She was badly hurt. Her rescuers didn't think she would survive. Hoping for a miracle and racing against time to save her, the rescuers transferred her to the Clearwater Marine Aquarium in Florida.The doctors managed to save Winter, but sadly, not her tail. Her tail flukes were too damaged and had to be removed so Winter could live.The little dolphin Winter survived against all odds, but she would never be able to swim normally without a tail. Thankfully the story doesn't end here. Winter was able to swim, but not very well. Because she didn't have a tail, she moved her body in a side-to-side motion like a shark. But the doctors at the aquarium were worried that the unconventional movement would hurt her spine.Kevin Carroll heard Winter's story and thought he could help. He is a specialist who designs and provides prostheses (义肢) for people. If he could help people, why not help a dolphin? He started working with Winter and came up with a solution for a new fluke and tail section.Kevin designed a stretchy sleeve to fit Winter's body and protect her skin. Then a tail made of silicone and plastic was made to tightly fit over the sleeve. Now Winter can swim like otherdolphins. And, she is a great inspiration to people who struggle with their own injuries.V.

Grammar and vocabularySection ADirections: After trading the passage below, fill in the blanks to make the passage coherent and grammatically correct. For the blanks with a given word, fill in each blank with the proper form of the given word: for the other blanks, use one word that best Jits each blank.Marian Bechtel sits at West Palm Beach's Bar Louie counter by herself, quietly reading her e-book as she waits for her salad. What is she reading? None of your business! Lunch is Bechtel's "me" time. And (21) more Americans, she's not alone.A new report found 46 percent of meals are eaten alone in America. More than half (53%) have breakfast alone and nearly half (46%) have lunch by themselves. Only at dinnertime (22) we eating together, 74%, according to statistics from the report."I prefer to go out and be out. Alone, but together, you know?” Bechtel said, (23) (look) up from her book. Bechtel, who works in downtown West Palm Beach, has lunch with coworkers sometimes, but like many of us, too often (24) (work) through lunchat her desk. A lunchtime escape allows her to keep a boss from tapping her on (25) shoulder. She returns to work feeling energized. "Today, I just wanted some time to myself,”she said.Just two seats over, Andrew Mazoleny, a local videographer, is finishing his lunch at the bar. He likes that he can sit and check his phone in peace or chat up the barkeeper with whom he's on a first-name basis (26) he wants to have a little interaction. “I reflect on (27) ___________________ my day's gone and think about the rest of the week," he said. "It's a chance for self-reflection. You return to work (28) (refresh) and with a plan.''That freedom (29) _______ (choose) is one reason more people like to eat alone. There was a time when people may have felt awkward about asking for a table for one, but those days are over. Now, we have our smartphones to keep us company at the table. "It doesn't feel as alone as it may have before all the advances in technology," said Laurie Demeritt, (30) _________________ company provided the statistics for the report.Section BDirections: Fill in each blank with a proper word chosen from the box. Each word can be used only once. Note that there is one word more than you need.Time: is there ever enough of it? In today's modern world, most of us are 31 with so-called time-saving devices and technological advancements and work less both at the office and at home. But why do we still feel busier?A study by Derek Thompson on the “myth" of being busy suggests that while 32 brought us convenience, it also brought us new headaches. Consider the idea of FOMO (fear of missing out). Knowing exactly what we're missing out makes us feel guilty or anxious aboutthe 33 of our time and our ability to use it effectively.While being informed is important, it can lead to anxiety about keeping up with the times. If you find yourself unable to stop scrolling through Twitter, turn off the phone and take a mental break. Practice JOMO (joy of missing out), a(n) 34 on life that's a direct contradiction to FOMO. Get rid of feelings of guilt and “shoulds" and replace them with mindfulness and living in the moment.Another thing technology has 35 us is the blurring(难以区分)between work and downtime. While constant connection has made the workday much more flexible, it's also harder to turn off at the end of the day. Always being "on" is a(n) 36 state of mind. Consider putting a hard stop on media and electronic devices an hour or two before bed.Of course, if you want to move up the corporate ladder and get a bigger paycheck, working long hours has long been a 37 strategy. But if you don't have passion for your job or care about what you do, you might just be working yourself into more 38 .People working the same hours feel completely different levels of time pressure depending on their passion. If most of the hours are spent doing something you don't feel39 about, it's no wonder you start to feel out of control and anxious about your time. Taking back control of your time can ease this mental stress. Therefore, your time management goal shouldn't be to figure out how to do more, but 40 to figure out how to want less. III. R eading ComprehensionSection ADirections: For each blank in the following passage there are Jour words or phrases markedA, B, C and D. Fill in each blank with the word or phrase that best Jits the context.The expression, "everybody's doing it," is very much at the center of the concept of peer pressure. It is a social influence applied on an individual in order to get that personto act or believe in a(n) 41 way as a larger group. This influence can be negative or positive, and can exist in both large and small groups.People are social creatures by nature, and so it is hardly 42 that some part of theirself-respect comes from the approval of others. This instinct explains why the approvalof peers, and the fear of 43 , is such a powerful force in many people's lives. This instinct drives pe ople to dress one way at home and another way at work, or to answer a simple “fine" when a stranger asks "how are you?" even if it is not necessarily true. There is a(n) 44 aspect to this: it helps society to function efficiently, and encourages a general levelof self-discipline that 45 day-to-day interaction between people.For certain individuals, seeking social acceptance is so important that it becomesa(n) 46 : in order to satisfy the desire, they may go so far as to 47 their sense of right and wrong. Teens and young adults may feel forced to use drugs, or join gangs that48 criminal behavior. Mature adults may sometimes feel 49 to cover up illegal activity at the company where they work, or end up in debt because they are unable to hold back the desire to buy a house or car that they can't afford in an effort to 50 the peers.However, peer pressure is not always negative. A student whose friends are good at51 may be urged to work harder and get good grades. Players on a sports team may feel driven to play harder in order to help the team win. This type of 52 can also get a friendoff drugs, or to help an adult take up a good habit or drop a bad one.Although peer pressure is sometimes quite obvious, it can also be so 53 that a person may not even notice that it is affecting his or her behavior. For this reason, when making important decisions, simply going with a(n) 54 is risky. Instead, people should seriouslyconsider why they feel drawn to taking a particular action, and whether the real 55 is simply that everyone else is doing the same thing.41.

For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage you have just read.（A）“You can use me as a last resort（选择）.and if nobody else volunteers, then I will do This was an actual reply from a parent after I put out a request for volunteers for my kids' lacrosse（长曲棍球）club.I guess that there's probably some demanding work schedule, or social anxiety around stepping up to help for an unknown sport. She may just need a little persuading. So I try again and tug at the heartstrings. I mention the single parent with four kids running the show and I talk about the dad coaching a team that his kids aren't even on… At this point the unwilling parent speaks up, “Alright. Yes, I'll do it."I'm secretly relieved because I know there's real power in sharing volunteer responsibilities among many. The unwilling parent organizes the meal schedule, sends out emails, and collects money for end —of —season gifts. Somewhere along the way, the same parent ends up becoming an invaluable member of the team. The coach is able to focus on the kids while the other parents are relieved to be off the hook for another season. Handingout sliced oranges to bloodthirsty kids can be as exciting as watching your own kid score a goal.Still, most of us volunteers breathe a sigh of relief when the season comes to a close. That relief is coupled with a deep understanding of why the same people keep coming back for more: Connecting to the community as you freely give your time, money, skills, or services provides a real joy. Volunteering just feels so good.In that sense. I'm pretty sure volunteering is more of a selfish act than I'd freely like to admit. However, if others benefit in the process, and I get some reward too, does it really matter where my motivation lies?56. What can we infer about the parent from her reply in paragraph 1?A. She knows little about the club.B. She isn't good at sports.C. She just doesn't want to volunteer.D. She's unable to meet her schedule.57. What does the underlined phrase"t ug at theheartstrings' in paragraph 2 mean?A. Encourage team work.B. Appeal to feelings.C. Promote good deeds.D. Provide advice.58. What can we learn about the parent from paragraph 3?A. She gets interested in lacrosse.B. She is proud of her kids.C. She'll work for another season.D. She becomes a good helper.59. Why does the writer like doing volunteer work?A. It gives her a sense of duty.B. It makes her very happy.C. It enables her to work hard.D. It brings her material rewards.(B)(You may read the questions first.)60. What is the theme of this year's competition?A. Technology advances science.B. Science interacts with technology.C. Science has made the study of history easy.D. Technology has improved the life of Americans.61. What would a participant have to do with an essay of 1,500 words to meet the categoryrequirement?A. Include more information in the essay.B. Remove the references.C. Provide a cover for the essay.D. Explain the details with illustrations.62. What will the committee of teachers do on February 19?A. Preview performances and documentaries.B. Make comments on the materials.C. Improve the participant's first draft.D. Collect a second proposal from the participant.(C)When prehistoric man arrived in new parts of the world, something strange happened to the large animals. They suddenly became extinct. Smaller species survived. The large, slow-growing animals were easy game, and were quickly hunted to extinction. Now something similar could be happening in the oceans.That the seas are being overfished has been known for years. What researchers such as Ransom Myers and Boris Worm have shown is just how fast things are changing. They have looked at half a century of data from fisheries around the world. Their methods do not attempt to estimate the actual biomass (the amount of living biological matter) of fish species in particular parts of the ocean, but rather changes in that biomass over time. According to their latest paper published in Nature, the biomass of large predators (animals that kill and eat other animals) in a new fishery is reduced on average by 80% within 15 years of the start of exploitation. In some long-fished areas, it has halved again since then.Dr. Worm acknowledges that the figures are conservative. One reason for this is that fishing technology has improved. Today's vessels (船)can find their prey using satellites and sonar, which were not available 50 years ago. That means a higher proportion of what is in the sea is being caught, so the real difference between present and past is likely to be worse than the one recorded by changes in catch sizes. In the early days, too, longlines (多钩长线) would have been more filled with fish. Some individuals would therefore not have been caught, since no baited hooks(带饵钩)would have been available to trap them, leading to an underestimate of fish stocks in the past. Furthermore, in the early days of longline fishing, a lot of fish were lost to sharks after they had been hooked. That is no longer a problem, because there are fewer sharks around now。

Each word can beused only once. Note that there is one word more than you need.评分标准：每题．15．They're still kids，and although there's a lot that the experts don't yet know about them，one thing they do agree on is that what the kids use and expect from their world has changed rapidly．And it's all because of technology．To the psychologists，sociologists，and media experts who study them，their digital devices set this new group （1），even from their Millennial （千禧年的）elders，who are quite familiar with technology．They want to be constantly connected and available in a way even their older brothers and sisters don't quite get．These differences may seem slight，but they （2）the appearance of a new generation．The （3）between Millennialelders and this younger group was so evident to psychologist Larry Rosen that he has （4）the birth of a new generation in a new book，Rewired：Understanding the ingeneration and the Way They Learn，out next month．Rosen says the technically （5）life experience of those born since the early 1990s is so different from the Millennial elders he wrote about in his 2007 book，Me，MySpace and I：Parenting the Net Generation，that they distinguishthemselves as a new generation，which he hasgiven them the nickname of "ingeneration"．Rosen says portability is the key．They are （6）from their wireless devices，which allow them to text as well as talk，so they can be constantly connected﹣even in class，where cell phones are （7）banned．Many researchers are trying to determine whether technology somehow causes the brains of young people to be wired differently．"They should be distracted and should perform more poorly than they do，" Rosen says．"But findings show teens （8）distractions much better than we would predict by their age and their brain development．"Because these kids are more devoted to technology at younger ages，Rosen says，the educational system has to change（9）．"The growth on the use of technology with children is very rapid，and we run the risk of being out of step with this generation as far as how they learn and how they think．We have to give them options because they want their world（10），" Rosen says．Reading ComprehensionSection ADirections：For each blank in the following passage there are four words or phrases marked A，B，C and D. Fill in each blank with the word or phrase that best fits the context.评分标准：每题．16．After my public lectures on evolution，someone in the audience asks，"Are we still evolving？"People want to know if humans are getting taller，smarter，better looking or more athletic．My answer is truthful but（1）：We're almost certainly evolving，but we don't know in what （2）or how fast．We've seen some evolution in our species over the past few millennia，but it was detected by reconstructing history from DNA sequences．For example，we know that during the past 10，000 years，several populations of humans ﹣those keeping sheep，cows or goats for milk﹣gained the ability to digest dairy products．This quality was （3）in our earlier ancestors who，after babyhood，never encountered milk．And in the past 3，000 years，Tibetans have acquired （4）adaptations that allowed them to develop well in their high﹣altitude，low﹣oxygen home．But these well﹣documented changes are limited to particular populations，so the （5）for recent evolution of our entire species，remains not much．The authors of "Evolving Ourselves"（6）．Not only，they claim，are we evolving faster than ever，but we're doing it to ourselves．Juan Enriquez and Steve Gullans argue that humans have （7）evolution ﹣not just in our own species but virtually in all species："For better or worse，we are increasingly in charge．We are the primary drivers of（8）．We will directly and indirectly determine what lives，what dies，where，and when．We are in a different phase of evolution：the future of life is now（9）．"According to the authors，we've replaced natural selection with what they call "（10）selection．" Overfishing，for example，has reduced the average size of many fish species，for taking the biggest fishes is （11）those smaller fishes．Yet while there's no doubt that we're changing the planet，the claim that we're completely changing evolution on the planet（12）．Let's take those fish that are evolving to reproduce smaller and younger for example．This（13）has been documented in many species that we eat，but thisis just a minuscule fraction （极小的一部分）of the 30，000 known species of fish．The authors speak with （14）assurance about how our species is evolving in response to nearly everything．When they claim，for example，our ingestion （摄取）of drugs and exposure to chemicals mean that "our children's brains are evolving fast，" they are abusing （滥用）the word "（15）．" Our children's brains may be changing fast in response to the new pharmacological （药理学的）environment，but change alone is not evolution．（1）A．instructive B．disappointing C．decisive D．conflicting （2）A．direction B．region C．frequency D．condition（3）A．beneficial B．adaptable C．unique D．useless（4）A．unproved B．changeable C．genetic D．mysterious （5）A．study B．evidence C．interest D．implication （6）A．disagree B．support C．follow D．approve（7）A．delayed B．overdone C．neglected D．controlled（8）A．unbalance B．disaster C．change D．disturbance （9）A．in our hands B．out of order C．in peace D．out of control （10）A．destructive B．unnatural C．adventurous D．emotional （11）A．by means of B．at the cost of C．in favor of D．for the protectionof（12）A．makes no sense B．makes great impression C．calls attention D．comes to an end （13）A．problem B．mistake C．phenomenon D．obstacle（14）A．strong B．baseless C．sensitive D．persuasive （15）A．environment B．technology C．exposure D．evolution Section BDirections：Read the following three passages. Each passage is followed by several questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A，B，C and D.Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage you have just read. 17．Once again DC Comics and Warner Bros．have divided fans and critics over their latest superhero film．There had been worrying news about Justice League in the months before its release，with a lot of reshoots of scenes，a new director being brought in to finish the film after original director Zack Snyder's tragic loss of his daughter and，of course，a lot of talk about Ben Affleck's future in the role of Batman．Some people are saying that Justice League is another big disappointment，that it could have been incredible and instead fails to really entertain．Others say that Warner Bros．have finally got it right and that the future for the League looks bright．My opinion lies somewhere in the middle．The film was by no means a disappointment：it was exciting，funny and a lot of fun to watch．There's something special about watching the heroes from your childhood brought to life on the big screen and maybe that is affecting my opinion．However，I will say that a lot of work needs to be done if the producer wants to make a great success．Although the film was good，it was obvious which scenes had been reshot and how the characters had been changed．I also have to mention the several scenes in which the special effects were very badly done；these are the kinds of problems that you don't expect to see in a film with such a big budget．Another point to add is that it is good to see the producer making Superman slightly a brighter character and adding some jokes to the plot to keep things fun．But the producer must be careful not to make the mistake that another film producer﹣here，not mentioning the name﹣is coming very close to doing：turning all of the films into bright and colorful shows and losing a lot of seriously good stories．In the end，Justice League is not a perfect film but it is definitely not a terrible one．A lot of work is still to be done but I hope that DC does not completely lose its darker side．（1）Before the release of Justice League，many people showed their．A．pity for the director，Zack SnyderB．concern about the film's qualityC．higher expectation of the new directorD．support for the actor，Ben Affleck（2）According to the author，what's special about Justice League？A．It advocates social justice．B．It brings lots of fun to the audience．C．It has some brave heroes．D．It brings back childhood memories．（3）In Paragraph 5the author mainly wants to express his．A．views on the film's weaknessB．advice to the film's directorC．love for the filmD．expectation of the film's sequels（4）The author mentioned another film producer to．A．stress the importance of fun in a filmB．show Justice League's lack of a serious plotC．serve as a warning to the producer of Justice LeagueD．set an example for the producer of Justice League18．（1）According to the passage，it is good habit to when you are writing your email．A．include all of your social network linksB．send your emails to all of your coworkersC．use different font size to make the massage vividD．keep the subject line brief（2）Which of the following statements might the author agree with？A．The subject line is filled with Hey instead of being left blank．B．Using capitals is acceptable when offering congratulations．C．You are supposed to reply to only one person at a time．D．Social network links should be included in your signature．（3）In which of the following sentences does the phrase "cry wolf" is correctly used？A．Economists are just crying wolf while actually the economic future is not so bad．B．The government is always crying wolf and has never kept the promise to reduce taxes．C．He cried wolf when he received a letter saying that his application had been rejected．D．He just cried wolf in comforting her when he didn't know what had really happened．19．The recession （衰退）of 2008﹣09 was remarkable in rich countries for its intensity，the followingrecovery for its weakness．The labour market has also broken the rules，as new research from the OECD，a think﹣tank of mainly rich countries，shows in its annual Employment Outlook．Young people always suffer in recessions．Employers stop hiring them；and they often get rid of new recruits because they are easier to dismiss．But in previous episodes，such as the recessions of the 1970s，1980s and 1990s，older workers were also kicked off．This time is different．During the financial crisis in 2008，and since，they have done better than other age groups．The researchers focus on movements in "non﹣employment" as a share of the total population in three age groups between the final quarters of 2007 and 2012．This measure has the advantage of including not just unemployment，where people are looking for work，but also inactivity，where people are not seeking jobs．Whereas the average non﹣employment rate in the OECD has risen by four percentage points among young people and by one﹣and﹣a﹣half points among 25﹣to 54﹣year﹣olds，it has fallen by two points among the 55﹣64 age group．Why have older employees done so well？In some southern European countries they benefit from job protection not afforded to younger workers，but that did not really help them in past recessions．What has changed，says Stefano Scarpetta，head of the OECD's employment directorate，is that firms now bear the full costs of getting rid of older staff．In the past，early﹣retirement policies provided by governments （in the mistaken belief that these would help young people）made it cheaperto push grey﹣haired workers out of the door．These have largely stopped．Many will argue that older workers have done better at the expense of the young．That view is wrongheaded．First，it is a fallacy that a job gained for one person is a job lost for another；there is no fixed amount of work．And second，as the report shows，young and old people are by and large not substitutes in the workplace．They do different types of work in different types of occupation：younger people are keen on IT firms，for example，whereas older folk tend to be employed in more traditional industries．There are plenty of things that should be done to help the young jobless，but kicking older workers out of the workplace is not one of them．（1）By saying "The labour market has also broken the rules"，the author means．A．young employees were protected by the governmentB．young employees suffered moderately in labour marketC．old employees suffered very little in the labour marketD．The recession had little impact on labour market（2）What do we know about "early﹣retirement policies" mentioned in the 4th paragraph？A．They proved to be little use and nearly no longer in effect．B．They have effectively helped young employees．C．They financially supported the elderly people．D．They have gain popularity in southern European countries．（3）The word "fallacy" （in the last paragraph）probably means ""．A．common beliefB．wrong conceptC．acceptable assumptionD．wise statement（4）Which of the following might the author agree with？A．Early﹣retirement policies should have been well adoptedby governments．B．Young people should be encouraged into traditional industries．C．Supportive policies should be made to help elderly people when crisis occurs．D．Old people's remaining in jobs doesn't necessarily threaten young people's jobs．Section CDirections：Read the passage carefully. Fill in each blank with a proper sentence given inthe box. Each sentence can be used only once. Note that there are two more sentences than you need.评分标准：每题（2分）．20．Life is not easy when you are looking for something worthwhile and ready to learn from the best experiences．（1）Here are some life lessons which people will learn the hard way in majority of cases．（2）However，people usually get discouraged when it takes more time than they thought it would．At this time，people refer only to people who have already achieved what they want to do．Look at any successful person and you'll notice one thing common in all of them：they took time to learn and mastered their skill like no one else．There is no elevator to success and you have to take the stairs．Be brave to take the road less traveled．In our whole life，we always want to follow the same path that everyone suggests，do the same thing everyone does，take the same career path everyone takes，wear the same clothes everyone wears，and hang out with the same people we work with．Why？Because we are scared to fail．But when you get bored of life，you realize that you are not meant to do what everyone does and that your destiny is different from anyone else's out there in the world．（3）You don't have to live your life in a way society wants you to．（4）Parents sometimes force their children to select a career they don't want because other children have selected that career．Worst of all，people follow them without even asking．There is no harm in believing in old beliefs but when you pursue them before your interest，sooner or later you'll realize that you should first do what you think is right．Summary Writing21．Directions：Read the following passage．Summarize the main idea and the main point（s）of the passage in no more than 60 words．Use your own words as far as possible．As is known to all，many things can be measured in terms of data．Sometimes data can indeed tell the truth．With the help of data we can easily know the price of a can of Coke in the supermarket or the result of a football match or the temperature of a certain day．Obviously，data can make our life easier and more comfortable．What is more important，data seem to be fairer than words or statements．If the data are true，we don't have to worry about being cheated．Nowadays，as lies exist in the world，data are expected to tell the truth．Therefore，many of us would rather believe data．On the other hand，if we judge things only by data from the so﹣called specific research，aren't wea little too narrow﹣minded？Many people often treat the so﹣called specific data unwisely just tomake sure that they are making the right decisions．But sometimes we may find that data aren't everything．For example，how can you tell that somebody isn't a good student just because he or she doesn't get high marks in the final examination？There are many things in our life which cannot be measured by data．For example，the degree of your feeling happy in your life，the depth of love between you and your friends，and the faith you have in your country．We can only feel them in our hearts but can never express them in data．There is no doubt that analyzing the exact data is important to assessment of an actual event．But data should be dealt with wisely．We often get wrong data which mislead us．We should try our best to be wise thinkers．Remember，data have no feeling but we humans have．Data do not mean much to people if we do not have the abilities to analyze the data with the knowledge and confidence to judge whether they are true or false．Data are data after all．Life is much more colorful than the pale data．So give the cold data a warm heart and we'll find that the world is far more wonderful than the pale data can describe．TranslationDirections：Translate the following sentences into English，using the words given in the brackets.22．我们相约周末去植物园看花展．（appointment）23．这家超市商品种类繁多，能满足不同的消费需求．（variety）24．如果父母在教育孩子的问题上意见一致，家庭就会更加和睦．（share）25．许多学校已将剪纸之类的民间艺术引入课堂，这不但培养了学生的动手能力，也提高了他们的艺术鉴赏力．（not only…）Guided Writing26．Directions：Write an English composition in 120﹣150 words according to the instructions given below in Chinese．假设你们学校正在向学生征询开设选修课（optional course）的有关事宜．请你写信给校长，提出你希望开设的选修课的名称，并简要说说这门课应该涉及的主要内容以及开设这门选修课的意义．2018-2019学年上海市闵行区高三（上）期末英语试卷参考答案与试题解析Listening ComprehensionSection ADirections：In Section A，you will hear ten short conversations between two speakers.
