Therefore, the impact of the loss of their bike can be (31)________. But why is cycle theft so often seen as a minor crime?According to the police, 96210 bikes were stolen in 2018, and about one in 50 bicycle-owning households fall (32)________ to cycle theft each year. Those who can afford a second bike might have a beater"s.a cheap bike they leave in (33)________ areas, and can afford to lose but those who cannot make both ends meet, and live below the poverty line will find themselves cornered by bike theft.According to a survey for Bike Register, 50% of victims felt police didn't investigate the crime, while those (34)________ in cycle theft see it as 1ow risk in terms of being caught. Police recover just 3% of stolen bikes. In fact, the problem is almost certainly much greater: People often don't report it thinking there's nothing the police can do, so the full (35)________ of the problem remains hidden.Cycle crime hotspots were identified as Cambridge, Oxford, Southampton, Bristol, etc. Most cycle thefts occur near or in people's homes, but thieves also (36)________ transport hubs (中心,枢纽) and university campuses. In the meantime, the police have come up with a way to (37)________ the issue. Training 23 officers in regional cycle crime task forces is part of a national cycle crime strategy.

It is widely accepted that police's (40)________ effort is fundamental to a drop in cycle theft.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.Technology is playing a vital role in preservation and ecology research. Drones (无人机) hold huge (41)________ in the fight to save the world's remaining wildlife from extinction. So researchers can now track wild animals through dense forests and monitor whales in vast oceans. It's estimated that up to five living species become extinct every day, making it urgent that universities develop new technologies to capture the data that can persuade (42)________ to act.The British International Education Association hosted a conference in January to (43)________ the importance of technological solutions in protecting vulnerable (易受伤害的) species and ecosystems.Speakers underlined how technology can help (44)________ : drones can circle high above the ocean to spot whales, while certain cameras can identify members of an individual species.According to Claudio Sillero, biology professor at Oxford University, technology is changing how preservation research is done but it's in a(n) (45)________ way, As technology gets better and cheaper, researchers become better at doing what they were already doing.(46)________, remote sensing used to be a very technical tool but is now widespread, and everyone uses global positioning system (GPS) for surveying.But teaching preservation and ecology courses in university and ecology courses in university (47)_______. Some teach drone surveying methods in depth while others don’t even mention them. “The fact is, using drones is quite a(n) (48)________ to the interdisciplinary (跨科学的) unknown of engineering, and potentially an area where lecturers may not feel confident to teach yet, Serge Wich, an expert in primate biology says. Students are taught about(49)________ technologies such as. automatic sound recorders, but drones are often missing from university teaching. Consequently, drone use among researchers is still fairly (50)________ and focused on getting photos. Wich's team of researchers used techniques to develop a fully automated drone technology system that (51)________ and monitors the health of endangered animals globally. It's designed to be cheap, stable and simple to use, so that. local communities in developing countries can operate it (52)________ without technical background. Yet it's not more widely used on the grounds of researchers" lack of skills to use this technology In biology, where drones are used, few can program an algorithm (算法) specifically for their preservation or research problem. There's much that needs to be done to (53)________ those two worlds and to make AI more user-friendly so that people who can't program can still use the technology." Wich says.(54)________, the sad truth is that better technology alone will not save any more species from dying out, Greengrass warns. As human populations increase, so do threats and pressure on wild places.Preservationists are (55)________ for not doing enough but it's. often an issue of people, conflict and governance. Technology may help provide far greater knowledge. but governments still need to act.41. A. shortage B. threats C. potential D. responsibilities42.

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)A Different Kind of Spring BreakFor many American university students, the week-long spring break holiday means an endless part ona sunny beach in Florida or Mexico. In Panama City Beach,' Florida, a city with a permanent population of approximately 36.000 more than half a million university students arrive during the month of March to play and party. making it the number one spring break destination in the United States.A week-long drinking binge is not for everyone, however, and a growing number of American university students have found a way to make spring break matter. For them, joining or leading a group of volunteers to travel locally or internationally and work to address problems such as poverty, homelessness,or environmental damage makes spring break a unique learning experience that university students can feelgood at.During one spring break week, students at James Madison University in Virginia participated in 15alternative spring break trips to nearby states, three others to more distant parts of the United States, and five international trips. One group of JMU students traveled to Bogalusa, Louisiana, to help rebuild homes damaged by Hurricane Katrina. Another group traveled to Mississippi to organize creative activities for children living in a homeless shelter. One group of students did go to Florida, but not to lie on the sand.They performed exhausting physical labor such as maintaining roving invasive plant species that threaten the native Florida ecosystem.Students who participate in alternative spring break projects find them very rewarding. While most university students have to get their degrees before they can start helping people, student volunteers are.able to help people now. On the other hand, the accommodations are far from glamorous. Students often sleep on the floor of a school or church, or spend the week camping in tents. But students only pay around$250 for meals and transportation, which is much less than some of their peers spend to travel to more traditional spring break hot spot.56. How many university students travel to Panama Beach City every March for spring break?A. Around 36.000.B. Around 50.000C. Around 00.000D. Around 10,000.57. The underlined binge word binge in paragraph 2 probably means ________.A. doing too much of somethingB. studying for too longC. refusing to do somethingD. having very little alcohol58. Which of the following gives the main idea of the third paragraph?A. One group of JMU students worked on homes damaged by a hurricane.B. Children living in homeless shelters enjoy creative activities.C. Some students work to help the environment on alternative spring break trips.D. University students do different types of work on alternative spring break trips.59. What is implied in this article is that ________.A. university students spend more than $250 for traditional spring break tripsB. university students complain about the accommodations on alternative spring break tripsC. university students may take fewer alternative spring break trips in the futureD. university students would prefer to wait until they have their degrees to start helping people(B)Cropping (修剪) an Image With the Snap Shot ProgramWelcome to the world of photo-editing!Cropping an image allows you to zero in on(对准) just the portion that is important to your project. For example, you may want to insert an image of a covered train in a report but may not want to include the whole train. Cropping the image allows you to select only the small area you wish to retain (保留) and eliminate all other portions of the original picture.Option 1: Cropping by Placing the Image in a ShapeUsing one of Snap Shot's standard shapes as a photo-editing tool requires no special abilities. To crop an image with a standard shape:a. Click Cropping & Orientation from the Effects menu.b. Click to select one of the six shapes to frame your image.c. on Use the mouse pointer to draw a frame around the portionof the image you wish to retain. Re-size the frame bydragging the shape's sizing handles. When you are satisfiedwith the results, click Cut It.d. Snap Shot will automatically return to the project that isopen.(You may also copy or cut the cropped image and paste itinto another application.)Option 2: Freehand Cropping of an ImageIf you want to trace the shape of an object in order to crop outeverything else, freehand cropping is the way to go. To crop an imagefreehand:a. Click Freehand Crop from the Cropping & Orientation optiononthe Effects menu.b. Using the mouse pointer, trace around the shape you want to crop. Be sure to completely enclose the image by ending at the same place you began outlining.c. Click Cut It. Snap Shot will automatically return to the project that is open.60. The main purpose of the passage is to ________.A. describe the features of Snap ShotB. explain how to use Snap Shot to select sections of a pictureC. show that Snap Shot is an easy tool to useD. discuss how to use the features of Snap Shot61. To perform Option 2, one should first ________.A. select the imageB. use the mouse pointer to draw a frameC. select Cropping & Orientation from the Effects menuD. re-size the frame by dragging the sizing handles on the shape62. Why is freehand cropping discussed after cropping with shapes?A. To introduce a simpler technique before moving on to a more complex one.B. To proceed from a more useful technique to one with fewer practical applications.C. To order the options alphabeticallyD. To arrange the text, making space for the screen shots.(C)Why do so many Americans distrust what they read in their newspapers? The American Society of Newspaper Editors is trying to answer this painful question. The organization is deep into a long self-analysis known as the journalism credibility project.Sad to say, this project has turned out to be mostly low-level findings about factual errors and spelling and grammar mistakes, combined with lots of head-scratching puzzlement about what in the world those readers really want.But the sources of distrust go way deeper. Most journalists learn to see the world through a set of standard patterns into which they report each day's events. In other words, there is a traditional story line in the newsroom culture that provides a backbone and a ready-made narrative structure for otherwise confusing news.There exists a social and cultural disconnect between journalists and their readers, which helps explain why the standard patterns of the newsroom seem foreign to many readers. In a recent survey,questionnaires were sent to reporters in five middle-size cities around the country, plus one large metropolitan area. Then residents, in these communities were phoned at random and asked the same questions.Replies show that compared with other Americans, journalists are more likely to live in upscale neighborhoods, have. maids, own Mercedeses, and trade stocks, and they're less likely to go to church, do volunteer work, or put down roots in a community.Reporters tend to be part of a broadly defined social and cultural elite (精英), so their work tends to reflect the traditional values of this elite. The alarming distrust of the news media isn’t rooted in inaccuracy or poor reportorial skills but in the daily conflict of world views between reporters and their readers.This is an explosive situation for any industry, particularly a declining one. Here is a troubled business that keeps hiring employees whose attitudes vastly annoy the customers. Then it sponsors lots of symposiums (讨论会) and a credibility project devoted to wondering why customers are annoyed and fleeing in large numbers, But it never seems to get around to noticing the cultural and class prejudices that so many former buyers are complaining about. If it. did, it would open up its diversity program, now focused narrowly on race and gender, and look for reporters who differ broadly by outlook, values,education, and class.63. What is the passage mainly about?A. Needs of the readers all over the world.B. Causes of the public disappointment about newspapers.C. Origins of the declining newspaper industry.D. Aims of a journalism credibility project.64. The results of the journalism credibility project turned out to be ________A. quite trustworthyB. somewhat conflictingC. very informativeD. rather shallow65. The basic problem of journalists as pointed out by the writer lies in their_A. working attitudeB. traditional lifestyleC. world outlookD. educational background66. Despite its efforts, the newspaper industry still cannot satisfy the readers owing to its _______A. failure to realize its real problemB. tendency to hire annoying reportersC. likeliness to do inaccurate reportingD. prejudice in matters of race and genderSection 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. Hence, any concerns about wet hair are theoretical.B. In some cases, wet hair may actually be a helpful sleep aid.C. Over time, it can lead to breakages, as well as a loss of shine.D. There may be some mild risks associated with going to bed with wet hair.E. Another wet-hair rumor (谣传) is the idea that harmful bacteria will colonize your pillow.F. This idea seems to fit into the old bit of custom that getting yourself chilled and wet will cause you to come down with a cold.If you shower before bed, you've probably wondered whether sleeping with damp hair is a problem.Maybe you ve heard it could make you sick, or that it can damage your hair or skin.What's the truth? Let's address the it can make you sick myth first. “(67)__________” says Dr. William Schaffner, a professor of medicine. While this idea persists, Schaffner says it was long ago disproved. It's true that you’re much more likely to catch a common cold during thewinter months. But this has to do with the ways respiratory (呼吸的) viruses spread, he says.(68)________ illness-causing bacteria and viruses don't appear naturally, and. so youre not going to make yourself ill by getting your pillow a little damp at night, Schaffner says. But there is a possible exception. Some research has shown that pillows especially those made with synthetic materials can contain asthma- or allergy-triggering molds(哮喘或致敏菌) and fungus, which tend to do well in damp environments, and so do dust mites, says Dr. Payel Gupta, a spokesperson for the American Lung Association.Gupta says there's no evidence that people who sleep with wet hair experience more allergy or asthma symptoms. (69)__________ But if you wake up with a stuffy nose, itchy or watery eyes, breathing problems orother allergy or asthma symptoms -or even if you don't you should wash your pillow cases and sheets inhot water at least once a week to reduce your exposure to any potential irritants (刺激物).When. it comes to the health of your hair and skin, there may be a few other reasons to worry about wet hair. Generally, it's thought not to be good for hair to sleep with it wet," says Dr. George Cotsarelis, a professor of dermatology (皮肤病学), (70)__________"It's also worth noting that almost anything you do to your hair from brushing and blow-drying it to coloring it or exposing it to the sum can damage it.IV. Summary WritingDirections: Read the following passage. Summarize the main idea and the main point(s) of the passage inno more than 60 words. Use your own words as far as possible.What comes first: the optimism or the good health?Optimism, defined as the general expectation that the future will be favorable, could provide ways to improve health, some researchers believe. But scientists remain unsure if optimism goes. ahead of health improvements, or vice versa.A recent study suggests that most people can't help but to think optimistically. This study was conducted by Ed o Brien, a social psychologist at the University of Michigan in Ann Arbor. The findings suggest that people have a natural tendency to think positively about their future.Participants were asked to create a list of imaginary personal experiences that would make them happy or unhappy over the course of the next year. They then ranked how difficult it was to plan that list and how happy they believed they would be in the future overall. The easier .it was for people to think of positive future experiences, the happier they imagined they would be. However, there was no relationship between easily developing negative future experiences and expecting to be unhappy as a result.O'Brien concluded that people seem to discount the possibility that future negative events will make them happy overall, suggesting that optimism might come more naturally. We're not as used to thinking about the future in terms of things that -are going to go wrong. O'Brien's study is one of many to find that people are consistently optimistic about their future, predicting pleasant experiences and discounting unpleasant ones. If optimism may lead to better health and people generally tend to think optimistically,what does this mean for the connection between mental and physical health? If we can make sure that optimism comes before healthy states, we might be able to involve and improve people s optimism, Boehm explained. However, it's difficult to determinewhat comes first: the optimism or the good health.V.

Therefore, the impact of the loss of their bike can be 31 . .

Drones (无人机) hold huge _______ in the fight to save the world’s remaining wildlife from extinction. So researchers can now track wild animals through dense forests and monitor whales in vast oceans. It’s estimated that up to five living species become extinct every day, making it urgent that universities develop new technologies to capture the data that can persuade _______ to act.The British International Education Association hosted a conference in January to _______ the importance of technological solutions in protecting vulnerable (易受伤害的) species and ecosystems. Speakers underlined how technology can help _______: drones can circle high above the ocean tospot whales, while certain cameras can identify members of an individual species.According to Claudio Sillero, biology professor at Oxford University, technology is changing how preservation research is done —but it’s in a(n) _______ way. As technology gets better and cheaper, researchers become better at doing what they were already doing. _______, remote sensing used to be a very technical tool but is now widespread, and everyone uses global positioning system (GPS) for surveying.But teaching preservation and ecology courses in university _______. Some teach drone surveying methods in de pth while others don’t even mention them. “The fact is, using drones is quite a(n) _______ to the interdisciplinary (跨学科的) ‘unknown’ of engineering, and potentially an area where lecturers may not feel confident to teach yet,” Serge Wich, an expert in prim ate biology says. “Students are taught about _______ technologies such as automatic sound recorders, but drones are often missing from university teaching. Consequently, drone use among researchers is still fairly ________ and focused on getting photos.”Wich’s team of researchers used techniques to develop a fully automated drone technology system that ________ and monitors the health of endangered animals globally. It’s designed to be cheap, stable and simple to use, so that local communities in developing countries can operate it ________ without technical background. Yet it’s not more widely used on the grounds of researchers’ lack of skills to use this technology. In biology, where drones are used, few can program an algorithm (算法) specifically for the ir preservation or research problem. “There’s much that needs to be done to ________ those two worlds and to make AI more user-friendly so that people who can’t program can still use the technology,” Wich says.________, the sad truth is that better technology alone will not save any more species from dying out, Greengrass warns. “As human populations increase, so do threats and pressure on wild places. Preservationists are ________ for not doing enough but it’s often an issue of people, conflict and governance.” Technology may help provide far greater knowledge, but governments still need to act.41 .

In Panama City Beach, Florida, a city with a permanent population of approximately 36,000, more than half a million university students arrive during the month of March to play and party, making it the number one spring break destination in the United States.A week-long drinking binge is not for everyone, however, and a growing number of American university students have found a way to make spring break matter. For them, joining or leading a group of volunteers to travel locally or internationally and work to address problems such as poverty, homelessness, or environmental damage makes spring break a unique learning experience that university students can feel good at.During one spring break week, students at James Madison University in Virginia participated in 15 “alternative spring break” trips to nearby state s, three others to more distant parts of the United States, and five international trips. One group of JMU students traveled to Bogalusa, Louisiana, to help rebuild homes damaged by Hurricane Katrina. Another group traveled to Mississippi to organize creative activities for children living in a homeless shelter. One group of students did go to Florida, butnot to lie on the sand. They performed exhausting physical labor such as maintaining roving invasive plant species that threaten the native Florida ecosystem.Students who participate in alternative spring break projects find them very rewarding. While most university students have to get their degrees before they can start helping people, student volunteers are able to help people now. On the other hand, the accommodations are far from glamorous. Students often sleep on the floor of a school or church, or spend the week camping in tents. But students only pay around $250 for meals and transportation, which is much less than some of their peers spend to travel to more traditional spring break hot spot.56 . How many university students travel to Panama Beach City every March for spring break?A.Around 36,000.B.Around 50,000.C.Around 500,000.D.Around 10,000.57 . The underlined word “ binge” in paragraph 2 probably means ______.A.doing too much of something B.studying for too longC.refusing to do something D.having very little alcohol58 . Which of the following gives the main idea of the third paragraph?A.One group of JMU students worked on homes damaged by a hurricane.B.Children living in homeless shelters enjoy creative activities.C.Some students work to help the environment on alternative spring break trips.D.University students do different types of work on alternative spring break trips.59 . What is implied in this article is that ______.A.university students spend more than $250 for traditional spring break tripsB.university students complain about the accommodations on alternative spring break trips C.university students may take fewer alternative spring break trips in the futureD.university students would prefer to wait until they have their degrees to start helping people(★★)Cropping (修剪) an Image With the Snap Shot ProgramWelcome to the world of photo-editing!Cropping an image allows you to zero in on (对准,聚焦) just the portion that is important to your project. For example, you may want to insert an image of a covered train in a report but may not wantto include the whole train. Cropping the image allows you to select only the small area you wish to retain (保留) and eliminate all other portions of the original picture.Option 1: Cropping by Placing the Image in a ShapeScreen Shot 1Using one of Snap Shot’s standard shapes as a photo-editing tool requires no special abilities. To crop an image with a standard shape:a. Click Cropping & Orientation from the Effects menu.b. Click to select one of the six shapes to frame your image.c. Use the mouse pointer to draw a frame around the portion of the image you wish to retain. Re-size the frame by dragging the shape’s sizing handles. When you are satisfied with the results, click Cut It.d. Snap Shot will automatically return to the project that is open. (You may also copy or cut the cropped image and paste it into another application.)Option 2: Freehand Cropping of an ImageScreen Shot 2If you want to trace the shape of an object in order to crop out everything else, freehand cropping is the way to go. To crop an image freehand:a. Click Freehand Crop from the Cropping & Orientation option on the Effects menu.b. Using the mouse pointer, trace around the shape you want to crop. Be sure to completely enclose the image by ending at the same place you began outlining.c. Click Cut It. Snap Shot will automatically return to the project that is open.60 . The main purpose of the passage is to ______.A.describe the features of Snap ShotB.explain how to use Snap Shot to select sections of a pictureC.show that Snap Shot is an easy tool to useD.discuss how to use the features of Snap Shot61 . To perform Option 2, one should first ______.A.select the imageB.use the mouse pointer to draw a frameC.select Cropping & Orientation from the Effects menuD.re-size the frame by dragging the sizing handles on the shape62 . Why is freehand cropping discussed after cropping with shapes?A.To introduce a simpler technique before moving on to a more complex one.B.To proceed from a more useful technique to one with fewer practical applications.C.To order the options alphabetically.D.To arrange the text, making space for the screen shots.(★★)Why do so many Americans distrust what they read in their newspapers? The American Society of Newspaper Editors is trying to answer this painful question. The organization is deep into a long self-analysis known as the journalism credibility project.Sad to say, this project has turned out to be mostly low-level findings about factual errors and spelling and grammar mistakes, combined with lots of head-scratching puzzlement about what in the world those readers really want.But the sources of distrust go way deeper. Most journalists learn to see the world through a set of standard patterns into which they report each day’s events. In other words, there is a traditional story line in the newsroom culture that provides a backbone and a ready-made narrative structure for otherwise confusing news.There exists a social and cultural disconnect between journalists and their readers, which helps explain why the “standard patterns” of the newsroom seem foreign to many readers. In a recent survey, questionnaires were sent to reporters in five middle-size cities around the country, plus one large metropolitan area. Then residents in these communities were phoned at random and asked the same questions.Replies show that compared with other Americans, journalists are more likely to live in upscale neighborhoods, have maids, own Mercedeses, and trade stocks, and they’re less likely to go to church, do volunteer work, or put down roots in a community.Reporters tend to be part of a broadly defined social and cultural elite (精英), so their work tends to reflect the traditional values of this elite. The alarming distrust of the news media isn’t rooted in inaccuracy or poor reportorial skills but in the daily conflict of world views between reporters and their readers.This is an explosive situation for any industry, particularly a declining one. Here is a troubled business that keeps hiring employees whose attitudes vastly annoy the customers. Then it sponsors lots of symposiums (讨论会) and a credibility project devoted to wondering why customers are annoyed and fleeing in large numbers. But it never seems to get around to noticing the cultural and class prejudices that so many former buyers are complaining about. If it did, it would open up its diversity program, now focused narrowly on race and gender, and look for reporters who differ broadly by outlook, values, education, and class.63 . What is the passage mainly about?A.Needs of the readers all over the world.B.Causes of the public disappointment about newspapers.C.Origins of the declining newspaper industry.D.Aims of a journalism credibility project.64 . The results of the journalism credibility project turned out to be ______.A.quite trustworthy B.somewhat conflictingC.very informative D.rather shallow65 . The basic problem of journalists as pointed out by the writer lies in their ______.A.working attitude B.traditional lifestyleC.world outlook D.educational background66 . Despite its efforts, the newspaper industry still cannot satisfy the readers owing to its ______.A.failure to realize its real problem B.tendency to hire annoying reportersC.likeliness to do inaccurate reporting D.prejudice in matters of race and gender八、七选五(★★) Directions: 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.If you shower before bed, you’ve probably wondered whether sleeping with damp hair is a problem. Maybe you’ve heard it could make you sick, or that it can damage your hair or skin.What’s the truth? Let’s address the “it can make you sick” myth first. “67 . ” says Dr. William Schaffner, a professor of medicine. While this idea persists, Schaffner says it was long ago disproved. It’s true that you’re much more likely to catch a common cold during the winter months. But this has to do with the ways respiratory (呼吸的) viruses spread, he says.68 . Illness-causing bacteria and viruses don’t appear naturally, and so you’re not going to make yourself ill by getting your pillow a little damp at night, Schaffner says. But there is a possible exception. Some research has shown that pillows—especially those made with synthetic materials—can contain asthma- or allergy-triggering molds (哮喘或致敏菌) and fungus, which tend to do well in damp environments, and so do dust mites, says Dr. Payel Gupta, a spokesperson for the American Lung Association.Gupta says there’s no evidence that people who sleep with wet hair experience more allergy or asthma symptoms. 69 . But if you wake up with a stuffy nose, itchy or watery eyes, breathing problems or other allergy or asthma symptoms—or even if you don’t—you should wash your pillow cases and sheets in hot water at least once a week to reduce your exposure to any potential irritants (刺激物).When it comes to the health of your hair and skin, there may be a few other reasons to worry about wet hair. “Generally, it’s thought not to be good for hair to sleep with it wet,” says Dr. George Cotsarelis, a professor of dermatology (皮肤病学), “70 . ”It’s also worth noting that almost anything you do to your hair—from brushing and blow-drying it to coloring it or exposing it to the sun—can damage it.A.Hence, any concerns about wet hair are theoretical.B.In some cases, wet hair may actually be a helpful sleep aid.C.Over time, it can lead to breakages, as well as a loss of shine.D.There may be some mild risks associated with going to bed with wet hair.E. Another wet-hair rumor (谣传) is the idea that harmful bacteria will colonize your pillow.F. This idea seems to fit into the old bit of custom that getting yourself chilled and wet will cause you to come down with a cold.九、概要写作(★★) 71 . 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.What comes first: the optimism or the good health?Optimism, defined as the general expectation that the future will be favorable, could provide ways to improve health, some researchers believe. But scientists remain unsure if optimism goes ahead of health improvements, or vice versa.A recent study suggests that most people can’t help but to think optimistically. This study was conducted by Ed O’Brien, a social psychologist at the University of Michigan in Ann Arbor. The findings suggest that people have a natural tendency to think positively about their future.Participants were asked to create a list of imaginary personal experiences that would make them happy or unhappy over the course of the next year. They then ranked how difficult it was to plan that list and how happy they believed they would be in the future overall. The easier it was for people to think of positive future experiences, the happier they imagined they would be. However, there was no relationship between easily developing negative future experiences and expecting to be unhappy as a result.O’Brien concluded that people seem to discount the possibility that future negative events will make them happy overall, suggesting that optimism might come more naturally. “We’re not as used to thinking about the future in terms of things that are going to go wrong.” O’Brien’s study is one of many to find that people are consistently optimistic about their future, predicting pleasant experiences and discounting unpleasant ones. If optimism may lead to better health and people generally tend to think optimistically, what does this mean for the connection between mental and physical health? “If we can make sure that optimism comes before healthy states, we might be able to involve and imp rove people’s optimism,” Boehm explained. However, it’s difficult to determine what comes first: the optimism or the good health.___________________________________________________________________________________ ___________________________________________________________________________________ ___________________________________________________________________________________ ___________________________________________________________________________________ ____________________________________十、汉译英(★★★★) Directions: Translate the following sentences into English, using the words given in the brackets.72 . 看来小王并不满足于已取得的进步。

So it's important they see a mental - healthwho can provide effective options for treatment when someone has clinical depression known as the state of feeling very sad, anxious and without hope. But there's also a condition known as subthreshold depression in which someone some symptoms of depressive disorder, but not enough for a clinical diagnosis.It's estimated that between 10% and 24% of the population has this kind of mild depression at some point in their lives. And for those people, a new study suggests that practicing thinking in silence may help improve their mood and reduce their risk of developing depression. The study, published in the Annals of Family Medicine, yet another reason why deep thinking may be good for both physical and mental health.The study included 231 Chinese adults with subthreshold depression, meaning theirbetween five and nine out of a total of 27 points on a standard depression . Half received mindfulness training two hours a week for eight weeks, while the other half continued to receive their usual medical care.During the mindfulness training, participants were instructed on setting short-and long-term goals; their activity and mood; planning out their activities; and body scanning. They were asked to practice them at home at least six days a week.These techniques combine traditional deep thinking with activation, a type of therapy that uses an "outside in" approach to help people change the way they act and aims to increase rewarding experiences in their lives. It has been shown to be effective for moderate to severe depression in other studies, and the researchers wanted to know if it would work as a measure as well.At the end of those eight weeks, the group that received mindfulness training reported a significant decrease in depression and symptoms compared to the group that did not. And no participants had developed clinical depression.二、Reading Comprehension (共1题;共15分)3.(15分)完形填空Directions: For each blank in the following passage there are four words or phrases marked A, B, C and D.

(共4题;共26分)4.(8分)阅读理解We've all heard the stories of an actor's struggles before a career breakthrough: living a hard life, working part time, being a couch potato before getting that major role. Shelby, the star of "A Dog's Way Home," has a hard-luck tale that could top them all. Before her big break, she was living in a landfill, rooting through garbage for her next meal.Shelby's big break came in April 2017, when animal-control officer Megan Buhler was driving in Cheatham County. Tennessee. Out on an unrelated call, Buhler spotted and approached what she recalled was a noticeably scared puppy emerging from the dump. "I knelt down and just said, ‘Oh, come here, baby,'" said Buhler. "She was so scared, but she came right up to me, and I was able to put her in my truck." The pair headed to the county animal shelter, where the staff began calling the new resident Baby Girl.Buhler and others didn't know that 3,200 kilometers away, Hollywood was looking for a dog to play Bella in a film written by Cathryn Michon. The find-a-Bella job went to freelance trainer Teresa Ann Miler. Her mission was to search shelters nationwide for a dog that could play Bella. One day, Miller spotted Baby Girl's adoption photo. "Honestly, it was a really good picture, and she was flat - out smiling," Miller said.Then she met Baby Girl, and assessed her on personality and the ability to respond to simple commands. After assessment, she adopted Baby Girl from the shelter, renamed her Shelby and took her to California for training. Miller and Shelby trained for just over three months before filming began. Then they were together each day on the set.Most of the film's reviews have praised Shelby's performance. Variety made the comments "an amazing dog, perfect performance!"Shelby has come a long way from the dump. But Buhler said she saw Shelby recently had needed only a second to compare the movie star with the dog she found from piles of trash. "She's exactly the same," Buhler said.(1)(2分)Why does the author mention an actor's struggle before a career breakthrough at the very beginning?A.To make a sharp contrast between an actor's struggle and a dog's struggle.B.To introduce a dog's similar but even more striking experiences.C.To attract reader's attention by giving dramatic examples.D.To clearly point out the main idea of the passage.(2)(2分)What finally helped Baby Girl get the big role in the film?A.Her adoption picture.B.Her flat-out smiling.C.her personality and ability.D.Her miserable experiences.(3)(2分)By saying "She is exactly the same" in the last paragraph, Buhler probably means__________.A.the dog returned to the piles of trash where she found itB.it took quite a lot of trouble for the dog to change her own fate.C.she's really excited to see the dog she helped live such a happy lifeD.the dramatic change of the dog's life hasn't changed her inner quality(4)(2分)What do you think may serve as the best title of the passage?A.The Success of "A Dog's Way Home".B.From a Landfill Puppy to a Movie Star.C.The Trainer and Her Star Dog.D.Shelby's Hard-luck Story.5.(6分)阅读理解Tips for Taking Online ClassesIf you're considering taking online college courses, the tips and advice below can help you address their unique challenges to get the most value out of your online program.⒈Hold yourself accountableWithout professors actively reminding you, it's up to you to make sure you've set aside enough time to complete assigned work. If you're having trouble holding yourself accountable, pair up with a fellow classmate. By being organized and self-aware, you can get the most from your online class.⒉Practice time management.The flexibility to create your own schedule is often one of the biggest appeals of taking online classes. But that freedom can also be detrimental if you do not have solid time management skills. Without them, you might find yourself cramming before classes or handing in poor-quality assignments.Make note of major assignments. Mark them on a calendar you check regularly so you know what workload is coming in the weeks ahead.Create a weekly schedule that you follow, designating certain hours each week to reading, watching lectures, completing assignments, studying, and participating in forums.When working on your assignments, try time-blocking, distributing yourself a certain amount of time for each task before moving on to the next one and setting a timer to keep you accountable.⒊Eliminate distractionsRegardless of where you choose to work, consider turning your cell phone off to avoid losing focus every time a text message or notification pops up. And if you're still having trouble resisting the temptation to check your email or surf the web, try downloading a website blocker. Using applications like Cold Turkey and Freedom can help eliminate distractions by blocking the apps or websites that tend to complete for your attention, such as Facebook and Twitter.Online classes are an excellent option to help you earn that degree you need to fulfill your goals such as job promotion. Though they come with their own unique challenges, following the advice above can help you be successful even in the most chaotic of times.(1)(2分)Which of the following ways keeps you from holding yourself accountable?A.Surfing websites that complete for your attention.B.Writing down schedules regularly on a calender.C.Setting a timer for the task being completed.D.Finding a classmate for mutual supervision.(2)(2分)How can you eliminate distractions when having online classes?A.By ignoring notification that pops up.B.By downloading a website blocker.C.By avoiding losing focus.D.By trying time-blocking.(3)(2分)It can be inferred from the passage that __________.A.a website blocker is used for effectively filtering useless websitesB.making note of assignments helps you figure out what workload comes firstC.weekly schedule involves designating certain hours to different daily routinesD.time management skills help you optimize the flexibility to create your schedule6.(8分)阅读理解The poet Lovelle Drachman once said, "blessed are the curious, for they shall have adventures.", which is certainly true of people with wanderlust.‘Wanderlust' is derived from a German word meaning 'a love of hiking' and now used to describe the burning desire to escape the everyday and explore the unfamiliar. Wanderlust is a common, but not universal experience. What makes some people catch that travel bug while others are apparently unaffected?One theory is to do with our genes. Scientific research has identified a variant of the DRD4 gene that affects sensitivity to dopamine(多巴胺), the neuro-transmitter often released in the brain when we do something we enjoy. Actually, it's not that the 7R version of the DRD4 specifically creates a thirst for travel, but people with the 7R variant are less sensitive to that delicious dopamine hit.So simple things that bring other people pleasure, like a jog in the park or a cheeky chocolate treat, might not cut it for them, which makes those with the 7R type of the DRD4 gene more likely to be risk takers to get increased dopamine levels. That's way DRD4-7R has been called the wanderlust gene. Other researches have also linked the same 7R variant to far riskier behaviours, such as addiction and offensive behaviour. By comparison, the strong sudden desire to go travelling seems like the better end of the Theory of Evolution.But another theory looks at the psychology of living in our inter-connected human society, one in which we are constantly aware of what friends and social media influencers are doing and keep comparing ourselves to them in two distinct ways. Upwards social comparisons, comparing ourselves to those we see asmore successful than us. And downward social comparisons, comparing ourselves to those we see as worse off than us. In the age of social media, it's very easy to compare ourselves unfavourably with the idealized version. How can we compete with influencers, with their perfectly dark brown legs on neat and clean while sand, and their once in a lifetime sunsets over Machu Picchu?Whether the motivation to explore the world is genetic, psychological or something else, there are far more harmful hobbies than the desire to explore the world. Venturing outside your comfort zone, to learn about new cultures, meet people you might otherwise never have had the chance to meet, and finally, learn who you are in different situations. Sounds like a life well-lived. As the novelist Jack Kerouac said, "Because in the end, you won't remember the time you spent in the office or mowing your lawn. Climb that goddamn mountain."(1)(2分)The underlined phrase "catch that travel bug" in Paragraph 2 is closest in meaning to__________.A.be crazy about travelling B.be curious about travellingC.escape daily life by travelling D.experience common travelling(2)(2分)Why are people with the 7R type of the DRD4 gene more likely to have wanderlust?A.Because they are more fascinated by risks and unfamiliar things.B.Because the 7R variant cause them to be less sensitive do dopamine hit.C.Because they have comparatively higher level of dopamine than other people.D.Because the 7R variant, also called wanderlust gene, helps create a craving for travelling.(3)(2分)The author will probably agree to the statement that __________A.a well-lived life doesn't involve venturing outside comfortable zoneB.the 7R variant is inevitably linked with some more risky behavior such as addictionC.people tend to forget their daily routine, but adventures really leave footprints in their heartsD.when people compare themselves with less successful ones, it may give rise to mixed feelings(4)(2分)What does the passage mainly talk about?A.Wanderlust and its two main categories.B.A less harmful hobby and analysis of its different cause.C.The distinctions between gene variants and social comparisons.D.Physical and psychological reasons for the desire to explore the world.7.(4分)Directions: Read the following passage. Fill in each blank with a proper sentence given in thebox. Each sentence can be used only once. Note that there are two more sentences than you need.Instructor-centered or Learner-centered?Whether in the East or West, the chief business of traditional education is to pass to the next generation the skills, facts, and standards of moral and social conduct that adults consider to be necessary for the next generation's material and social success.The students work individually on assignments, and cooperation is discouraged. The result of this emphasis on what instructors do is that students may become passive learned and do not take responsibility for their own learning. Educators call this traditional method "instructor-centered teaching".In contrast, "learner - centered teaching" occurs when instructors focus on student learning. It is an approach to teaching that is increasingly being encouraged in higher education. These methods include active learning, in which students solve problems, answer questions, formulate questions of their own, discuss, explain, debate, or brainstorm during class; cooperative learning, in which students work in teams on problems and projects under conditions that assure both positive interdependence and individual account ability; and inductive(归纳法)teaching and learning, in which students are first presented with challenges and learn the couse material in the context of addressing the challenges.Although learner-centered methods have repeatedly been shown to be superior to the traditional teacher-centered approach to instruction, the best teaching, according to Parker Plamer, the author of The Courage to Teach, is not one or the other, but a combination of both.Learner-centerd teachers still need to lecture because teachers are the definitive content experts in the classroom and the knowledge and experiences of teachers can be extremely helpful to students.They must recognize that students can learn from each other and that the deepest learning happens when students have the opportunity to practice and obtain feedback.四、Summary Writing (共1题;共5分)8.(5分)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.Coco-Cola's Innovative Solution to Plastic PollutionPlastic pollution has become one of the most pressing problem of the 21st Century with plastic waste almost everywhere. It is estimated that just in 2016, the world produced over 320 million tons of plastic, and this number is set to double by 2034.Plastic waste even makes its way into our oceans with 8 million pieces of plastic pollution per day polluting our waters and destroying the habitat for hundreds of species. It is now believed that there may be around 5.25 trillion pieces of plastic in the ocean weighing in total up to 269,000 tons.It's been crystal clear for a long time that the situation is horrible and something needs to be done, and fast. Luckily, Coca-Cola stepped up to the challenge and came up with one innovative and rather effective solution. The firm is replacing its plastic wrapping in Europe with a new paper board technology.This new tech is called the KeelClip and it is a first for the non-alcohol ready-to-drink (NARTD) industry. Using KeelClips, Coca-Cola aims to remove all plastic wrap from its can multipacks in all? European Union markets by the end of 2021. The firm is optimistic that the move will save 2,000 tons of plastic and 3,000 tons of CO2 annually."Innovation is a key principle of our sustainable packaging work and the application of this fully recyclable paperboard KeelClipTM, which is composed of a top board that the cans clip into and central cardboard 'keel' -- similar to a ship's keel - that stabilizes the pack, is another example of how we are delivering on our commitment to remove all unnecessary and hard to recycle single-use plastic from our products. We hope this eco-friendly initative is a conscious approach to dealing with plastic pollution," said Joe Franses, Vice President, Sustainability at Coca-Cola European Partners.五、Translation (共4题;共20分)9.(5分)用过的人大都说这种钢笔书写流利。
