ABill Javis took over our village news-agency at a time of life when most of us only want to relax. He just thought he would like something but not too much to do, and the news-agency was ready-made. The business produced little enough for him, but Bill was a man who only wanted the simplicity and order and regularity of the job. He had been a long-serving sailor, and all his life had done everything by the clock. Every day he opened his shop at six a.m. to catch the early trade; the papers arrived on his door-step before that. Many of Bill’s customers were city workers, and the shop was convenient for the station. Business was tailing off by 10 o’clock, so at eleven sharp Bill closed for lunch. It was hard luck on anybody who wanted a paper or magazine in the afternoon, for most likely Bill would be down on the river bank, fishing, and his nearest competitor was five kilometers away. Sometime in the afternoon, the evening paper landed on the doormat, and at 4 o’clock Bill reopened. The evening rush lasted till seven, and it was worthwhile.He lived in a flat above the shop, alone. Except in the very bad weather, you always knew where to find him in the afternoon, as I have said. Once, on a sunny afternoon, I walked home along the river bank from a shopping trip to the village. By my watch it was three minutes past four, so I was astonished to see Bill sitting there on his little chair with a line in the water. He had had no luck, I could see, but he was making no effort to move.“What’s wrong, Bill?” I called out from the path.For answer, he put a hand in his jacket and took out a big, golden object. For a moment I had no idea what it could be, and then it suddenly went off with a noise like a fire engine. Stopping the bell, Bill held the thing up and called back, “Ten to four, you see, and this is dead right.”I had never known anyone carrying a brass alarm clock round with him before.1. Bill Javis became a news-agent when ________.A. he needed the money.B. he decided to take things easyC. he was quite an old manD. he gave up clock-repairing2. Bill opened the shop so early in the day because ________.A. he liked to do as much as possible before he went to workB. the shop had to be open when the morning papers cameC. he was never sure of timeD. it was then that he did a lot of business3. On that sunny afternoon, the writer was surprised when he saw Bill because _______.A. he thought it was late for Bill to be still fishingB. he thought Bill was ill, since he was not moving at allC. Bill had not caught anything, and that seemed strangeD. Bill stayed in his flat4. What’s the meaning of the underlined phrase in paragraph 2?A. become noisyB. become lessC. become strongerD. become busy【答案】1.C2.D3.A4.B3.A推理判断题。

AWelcome to Orlando! It has a host of attractions and activities. Ready to join the party and plan a visit to O-Town? Just print out our list that suits your style.Universal Orlando’s Islands of AdventureThe addition of The Wizarding World of Harry Potter was among the list of must-visits for theme park enthusiasts. Each of the park’s “islands” —Toon Lagoon, Jurassic Park, and The Lost Continent — has unique appeal in the form of rides and interactive attractions. (407-363-8000)GatorlandIt bills itself as “Orlando’s best half-day attraction”, for in a city people are limited by their time and money. Catch Gatorland’s animals an d handler（驯化）shows in the afternoon. There’s a nighttime run as well, including the Gator Night Shine and various activities. Gatorland ranks as a comparative theme-park bargain. (407-855-5496)AquaticaOne of the city’s most unique water parks, Aquatica is a fantastical world of twisting, turning rides and sparkling white sand beaches. And if you enjoy a side of terror with your water-park fun, be sure to check out Ihu’s Breakaway Falls. This towering slide is an eight-story mind-bender of a plummet（垂直落下） that is not for the weak heart. The less exciting will still find plenty of fun splashing from one giant wave pool to another or drifting down the lazy river through a world of unusual fish. You can also watch the black-and-white Commerson’s dolphins unde rwater. (407-351-3600)Warbird AdventuresFew attractions are more hands-on historic than Warbird Adventures, which offers thrill-seekers the opportunity to fly like the hero aces of World War II in the North American T-6 Texan. Flights range from 15 minutes to an hour. A visit to the nearbyKissimmee Air Museum is a wonderful way to round out the experience. (407-870-7366)1. For fans of Harry Potter, there’s _____.A. Universal Orlando’s Islands of AdventureB. GatorlandC. AquaticaD. Warbird Adventures2. According to the fourth paragraph, we know Ihu’s Breakaway Falls _____.A. needs a strong heartB. lies under the waterC. ranges from 15 minutes to an hourD. is suitable for some after-park drinks3.

Bef ore he ordered, he couldn’t help but noticed a group of younger men at the table next to him. It was obvious they were making fun of something about him and it wasn’t until he remembered he was wearing a small pink ribbon(丝带) on the lapel （翻领）of his suit that he became aware of what the joke was all about.The man pretended not to notice it, but the whisper and laughter began to get to him. He looked one of the rude young men straight into the eye, placed his hand beneath t he ribbon and asked, “This?”With that the young men all began to laugh out loud. The man he spoke to said, “Hey, sorry, man, but we were just commenting on how pretty your little pink ribbon looks against your blue jacket!”The middle-aged man calmly invited the joker to come over to his table, and politely seated him. As uncomfortable as he was, the young guy had to, not really sure why. In a soft voice, the middle-aged man said, “I wear this ribbon to bring awareness about breast cancer. I wear it in my mother’s honor.”“Oh, sorry. She died of breast cancer?”“No, she didn’t. She’s alive and well. But her breasts nourished me as a baby, and were a soft resting place for my head when I was scared or lonely as a little boy. I’m very grateful for my mother’s breasts, and her health.”“Umm,” the young replied, “yeah.”“And I wear this ribbon to honor my wife,” the man continued.“And she’s okay, too?” the young guy asked.“Oh, yes. She’s fine. Her breasts have been a great source of loving pleasure for both of us, and with them she nurtured and nourished our daughter 23 years ago. I’m grateful for my wife’s breasts, and her health.”“Uh, huh. And I guess you wear it to honor your daughter, also?”“No. It’s too late to honor my daughter by wearing it now ……”Sha ken and ashamed, the young guy said, “Oh, I’m so sorry, mister.”“So, in my daughter’s memory, too, I proudly wear this little ribbon, which allows me the opportunity to enlighten others. And here…” With this, he reached in his pocket and handed the young man a little pink ribbon. The young guy looked at it, slowly raised his head and asked, “……?”4. The young men joked about the middle-aged man’s _____.A. looksB. ribbonC. attitudeD. clothes5. What may have happened to the man’s daughter?A. She died of breast cancer.B. She was ill with cancer.C. She had gone abroad.D. She got married.6. What will the young man probably ask?A. May I give it to my mother?B. Can you help me put it on?C. Will you please forgive me?D. Shall we have some drink together?7. What is the best title for the passage?A. An Unusual Meeting.B. An Impressive Lesson.C. Be Grateful to Your Beloved.D. Little Pink RibbonCJohn D. Rockefeller once said, “The ability to deal with people is as purchasable a commodity (日用品) as sugar or coffee. And I will pay more for that ability than for any other under the sun. ”Wouldn’t you suppose that every college in the land would conduct courses to develop the highest-priced ability under the sun? But if there was one, it would not escape my attention.The University of Chicago conducted a survey to determine what adults want tostudy. That survey cost $ 25,000 and took two years. The last part of the survey was made in Meriden, Connecticut. It had been chosen as a typical American town. Every adult in Meriden was interviewed and requested to answer 156 questions such as “What is your business or profession? Your education? How do you spend your spare time? What is your income? Your hobbies? Your ambitions? Your problems? What subjects are you most interested in studying?” and so on. That survey revealed that health is the prime interest of adults and that their second interest is people; how to understand and get along with people; how to make people like you; and how to win others to your way of thinking.So the committee conducting this survey decided to conduct such a course for adults in Meriden. They searched for a practical textbook on the subject and found none. Finally they approached one of the world’s outstanding authorities on adult education and asked him if he knew of any book that met the needs of this group. “No,” he replied, “I know what those adults want. But the book they need has never been written.”I knew from experience that this statement was true, for I myself had been searching for years to discover a practical handbook on human relations. Since no such book existed, I have tried to write one for use in my own courses. And here it is. I hope you like it.8. What does John D. Rockefeller suggest about the ability to deal with people?A. It is as easy as drinking a coffee.B. It is very important in everyday life.C. It is affordable for everybody.D. It is more expensive than expected.9. What is the purpose of the survey conducted by the University of Chicago?A. To find out what adults desire to learn.B. To show what the adults’ ambitions are.C. To identify what skill is most needed for adults.D. To explain what changed people’s life.10. What challenge did the committee have to face when conducting the course?A. Less financial support.B. No proper textbook available.C. Fewer qualified teachers.D. Lack of enough appeal.11. We can learn that the author wrote a book about .A. conducting a scientific surveyB. changing your way of thinkingC. developing good human relationsD. giving a practical business courseD2017 was an influential year for artificial intelligence (人工智能), not just in terms of the advancement of the technology itself, but also for the development of our understanding of AI’s impact on our society.When we talk about AI, often we focus on the belief that it is going to take away certain types of jobs. However, we often ignore the fact that this technology will also slowly spread into most of our lives.Thanks to the development of AI, we are on the highway of IA, (human) intelligence augmentation (增强). Despite the great steps we’ve made in AI development and will continue to make in 2018, we are still years away from AI fully replacing human jobs. However, we are much closer to seeing the impact of AI spread into almost every job and the growth in human intelligence.Take a doctor for example: AI will soon be able to detect and diagnose common diseases more quickly and accurately than humans. Now, doctors can spend more of their time explaining the possible diagnoses, communicating with patients and developing unique, reliable treatment plans that are most effective for each specific patient.However, AI is so powerful and its adoption will only accelerate as it begins to help our work and allow us to focus on the parts of our job that are most important. But part of why AI is so attractive is also why it’s so dangerous. That is, that same power allows AI that are making incorrect decisions to do so with greater speed and impact than humans have ever had.This is why, as AI becomes more useful in 2018, it will also become more closely examined. 2018 will be the year when companies purchasing AI products don’t just ask about the power of AI—they will make sure that it is tested carefully in advance, minimizing their potential unexpected impact.12. What does the author suggest in the first two paragraphs?A. Many jobs should be replaced by AI in the future.B. People should think more about the impact of AI.C. AI is too abstract for ordinary people to understand.D. People care little about the development of AI.13. The author takes the example of “the doctor” to explain that .A. AI always makes right decisionsB. doctors will lose their jobs very soonC. human intelligence grows with AID. humans are no better than AI in medicine14. What will be the focus about AI in 2018 according to the author’s prediction?A. The safety of AI.B. The possibility of replacing humans.C. Cost reduction.D. Power augmentation.15. What is the author’s attitude towards AI?A. Indifferent.B. Negative.C. Doubtful.D. Objective.第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，共10分）根据短文内容，从短文后的七个选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

AWhen it was announced that Patrick Modiano had won the Nobel Prize in Literature on Oct.9, the Swedish Academy had not yet managed to reach the writer himself to tell him the news. as the Telegraph put it, “It was a curious case of missing personhood in an author whose career had been spent in searching others, within the confines (界限) of a single city.”Though the 69-year-old French author has had a successful writing career, only six of his books have been translated into English. One reason for this might be that “Modiano’s storylines are as slim as the books themselves”, said the BBC.While most of Modiano’s works don’t run for hun dreds of pages, they explore serious subjects. The author’s signature themes are Germany’s occupation during World War II and the evolution of Paris over the past century.Modiano’s life has been greatly affected by Nazi Germany’s occupation during the war, and his family’s connections to it. According to New York-based newspaper Forward, his father survived the war dishonorably. When Paris’s Jews were rounded up for deportation(驱逐)to concentration camps, the businessman did not join them but spent the time making money from deals with Nazis on the black market.“The novelist has a duty to record the traces of the people who were made to disappear,” French writer Clemence Boulouque, also an expert in Jewish Studies, told The New York magazine.In his more than three dozen novels, Modiano has returned again and to the same themes: Jewishness, the Nazi occupation, and loss of identity.Paris is another recurring(重复的)theme in Modiano’s works .Most of his novels are set in the city , from the rich parts of downtown Paris to more remote suburbs where the characters try to live anonymous protect lives.Anne Ghisoli, the director of Librairie Gallimard, a bookstore in Paris, concluded, “Modiano is a master of writing on memory and occupation, which haunt(萦绕)and inform his works. He is a chronicler(年代记录者)of Paris ,its streets, and its present.”1. According to the article, Patrick Modiano ____________.A. likes to involve his his memories in his writingB. usually writes stories with disappearing peopleC. is so popular that post of his works are on saleD. didn’t suffer much during World War II thanks to his father2. The underline word “slim” in Paragraph 2 is closest in meaning to ____.A. thinB. hardC. simpleD. dull3. Which of the following can be the best title?A. French Author’s SurpriseB. Modiano’s Life and His BooksC. World War II and the NazisD. Memory Author Wins the Nobel【答案】1. A 2. C 3. D...【解析】本文是一篇记叙文。

A teacher who wants to learn on-line teaching is expected to arrive by ______.A. 9:00 a.m.B. 10:30 a.m.C. 2:00 p.m.D. 3:30 p.m.BI go out of my way to say “thank you” to my partner frequently, and he’s the same way. We were both raised by parents who valued politeness, and more than that, I want to do all those little things that psychologists say help couples stay together. Expressing gratitude is one of t hose things, so a quick “thanks” seems like an easy one.But according to a recent study, we’re not at all typical. The study looked at over 1,000 recordings of casual conversations among families and close friends. In only about one out of 20 times were expressions of thanks observed. Phrases that meant “thanks” but weren’t a direct translation of the word were counted, including physical gestures of thanks.The researchers looked at a wide variety of people from different places, representing eight languages: Polish, Russian, Italy, English, Murrinh-patha (an Aboriginal language), Cha’ palaa, Lao and Siwu.The Brits thanked people close to them the most, about 14.5 percent of the time, and close behind them were the Italians at 13.5 percent. The Murrinh-patha came next at 4.0 percent and following them were the Russians, the Polish, the Laotians and the Siwu speakers. The lowest? Well, the Cha’ palaa speakers of Ecuador don’t have a word for “thank you” at all.As the linguists explained, “Expressing thanks, in some cultures, is more of a linguistic tradition than a true expression of feelings. In cultures where thanksare less often said, it’s because social cooperation is taken for granted, and ‘thank you’ isn’t really needed or necessary. ”The idea that you don’t need to thank others because it’s assumed that you’re appreciative is beautiful. But it is a bit hard for me to accept. So I’ll keep saying “thanks” as frequently as I do. But as a frequent traveler, I’ll keep in mind to watch the local custom and follow suit.5. What might be psychologists’ opinion about expressing thanks?A. It can show a person’s values.B. It is passed down from parents.C. It can contribute to close relationship.D. It is a little and unnecessary thing.6. What is typical among family members according to the study?A. They seldom express thanks.B. They say thanks at any time.C. They often show thanks using gestures.D. They often use indirect translation of thanks.7. Who never say “thank you”?A. The Polish.B. The Italians.C. The Russians.D. The Cha’ palaa.8. What is mainly talked about in the text?A. Family members don’t need to thank each other.B. People thank close friends and family less.C. Close friends have different ways to express thanks.D. Different cultures have different ways to express thanks.CLike toolmaking, teaching was once thought to be an exclusive(独有的) capacity of the human mind. It is not actually.“Teaching” requires this: one individual must take time from their own task to demonstrate and instruct with effort and the student must learn a new skill. That’s a tall order.When a young chimpanzee watches a skilled adult and then imitates (模仿), t hat’slearning. But the adult has not taken time specifically to instruct, so it is not teaching. In the honeybees’ amazing dance, the dancer takes time to indicate information about a source of food, but observers learn no new skill. They do take time to show, but they do not pass on new skills to learners.Dolphins teach. Atlantic spotted dolphin mothers sometimes free a caught fish in the presence of their youngsters and let their youngsters chase it, catching it again if it’s getting away. Dolphin young sters also position themselves alongside mothers who are scanning sandy bottoms for hidden fish, and the mother spends extra time demonstrating.Other teachers include: housecats who bring back live prey and let their young learn to catch it, and meerkats (猫鼬)who first bring to their growing young dead scorpions (蝎子), then disabled ones, to demonstrate how to remove the poisonous part on their tails.Like toolmaking and teaching, imitation is also considered to reflect high intelligence. In South Africa lived a baby dolphin named Dolly. One day while she was just six months old, Dolly was watching a trainer standing at the window smoking a cigarette, blowing puffs of smoke. Dolly swam to her mother, got a mouthful of milk, then returned to the window and released a cloud of milk that surrounded her head. The trainer was “absolutely astonished”.Somehow Dolly came up with the idea of using milk to represent smoke. Using one thing to represent something else isn’t just imitation. It is art.9. What does the u nderlined phrase “a tall order” probably mean in paragraph 2?A. A clear instruction.B. A high risk.C. A useful purpose.D. A difficult requirement.10. What do we know about honeybees’ dance?A. Imitating.B. Learning.C. Presenting.D. Teaching.11. What can we infer about animals that can teach?A. Bees show their dance to younger generations.B. Young dolphins must learn how to free a fish.C. Housecats teach in a way similar to dolphins.D. Meerkats have poisonous parts on the tails.12. Why does the author use Dolly’s example?A. To prove smoking can affect other animals.B. To show animals can be surprisingly intelligent.C. To explain dolphins are capable of making art.D. To stress milk is to dolphins what smoking is to men.DWhen there are some strangers in front of us, which of them will we trust?According to a new study in the online PLOS One, people make their decisions to trust others largely based on their faces. Your appearance can do a lot for you, especially if you are in the financial（金融） industry. The more trustworthy you look, the more likely people will buy what you’re selling.Researchers from Britain’s University of Warwick Business School, University College London, and Dartmouth College, US, did a number of experiments.The research team used computer software to make 40 faces, from the least to the most trustworthy-looking.The study said that the difference between a trustworthy face and one that isn’t as trustworthy comes from features that look slightly angry or slightly happy, even when the face is at rest. However, a slightly happy face is more likely to be trusted.Researchers gave participants some money and asked them which face they trusted to invest the money. Then researchers gave some good and bad information about the people with these faces, and asked the participants again whom they trusted.The results showed that even if they got different information, the participants didn’t change their choices. They were still more l ikely to invest their money with the more trustworthy-looking faces.Chris Olivola, one of the study’s authors, said in the University of Warwick’s press release: “It seems that we are still willing to go with our own instincts (本能) about whether we think someone looks like we can trust them. The temptation (诱惑) to judge strangers by their faces is hard to resist.”13. According to the study, which of the following faces is most likely to be trusted?A. A sad face.B. An angry face.C. A crying face.D. A smiling face.14. Which of the following about the experiment is TRUE?A. The trustworthy faces were given good information.B. Researchers took photos of the 40 people’s faces in college.C. Participants liked to choose the faces with good information.D. Most participants gave their money to the trustworthy-looking faces.15. What did the researchers learn from their experiment?A. People can’t refuse temptations.B. People often judge strangers by their faces.C. People do things with their instincts all the time.D. People don’t trust strangers with sad faces.第二节(共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分)根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

A science fictionBLarry was on another of his underwater expeditions(探险) but this time, it was different. He decided to take his daughter along with him. She was only ten years old. This would be her first trip with her father on what he had always been famous for.Larry first began diving when he was his daughter's age. Similarly, his fatherhad taken him along on one of his expeditions. Since then, he had never looked back. Larry started out by renting diving suits from the small diving shop just along the shore. H e h ad h ated t hem. T hey w ere t oo b ig o r t oo s mall. T hen, t here w as t he i nstructor.He gave him a short lesson before allowing him into the water with his father. He had made an exception. Larry would never have been able to go down without at least five hours of theory and another similar number of hours on practical lessons w ith a guide. Children his age were not even allowed to dive.After the first expedition, Larry's later diving adventures only got better and better. There was never a dull moment. In his black and blue suit and with an oxygen tank fastened on his back, Larry dived from boats into the middle of the ocean. Dangerous areas did not prevent him from continuing his search. Sometimes, he was limited to a cage underwater but that did not bother him. At least, he was still ableto take photographs of the underwater creatures.Larry's first expedition without his father was in the Cayman Islands. There were numerous diving spots in the area and Larry was determined to visit all of them. Fortunately for him, a man offered to take him around the different spots for free.Larry did not even know what the time was, how many spots he dived into or how many photographs he had taken. The diving spots afforded such a wide array of fish and sea creatures that Larry saw more than thirty varieties of creatures.Larry looked at his daughter. She looked as excited as he had been when he was her age. He hoped she would be able to continue the family tradition. Already, she looked like she was much braver than Larry had been then. This was the key to a successful underwater expedition.5. In what way was this expedition different for Larry?A. His daughter had grown up.B. He had become a famous diver.C. His father would dive with him.D. His daughter would dive with him.6. What can be inferred from Paragraph 2?A. Larry had some privileges (special rights).B. Larry liked the rented diving suits.C. Divers had to buy diving equipment.D. Ten-year-old children were permitted to dive.7. Why did Larry have to stay in a cage underwater sometimes?A. To protect himself from danger.B. To dive into the deep water.C. To admire the underwater view.D. To take photos more conveniently.8. What can be learned from the underlined sentence?A. Larry didn’t wear a watch.B. Larry was not good at math.C. Larry had a poor memory.D. Larry enjoyed the adventure.CAt home, ordering food from a menu is a normal, everyday routine. I don’t even give it a second thought. In China, it’s a whole other story! Here, ordering is afun game of trial and error, and the adventure begins before the food is even served!Many r estaurants i n c entral B eijing a dvertise “English l anguage m enus”,b ut t he translations can just add to the confusion. Although accompanying pictures can be a helpful relief, the translations often make the whole experience even more amusing. During my first few weeks in China I tried some delicious dishes with strange names.As an experiment, my friends and I would order things like “students addicted to chicken gristle (软骨)” and “red burned lion head”. It was always fun to see whatlanded on our table. Eventually we learned that “lion head” was actually pork, and “students” are “addicted” to diced (切碎的) chicken with green pepper.Recently, I came across a busy restaurant down a narrow side street in a Beijing hutong. It was lunchtime and the small room was packed with people sitting on small stools eating noodles. I was hungry and cold, and the steaming bowls looked irresistible! I sat myself down and called out for a “caidan!” In response, the waitress pointed to a wall at the back of the restaurant. The wall was full of Chinese characters describing numerous dishes. There was only one sentence in English: “crossing over the bridge noodles”.I had never heard of the dish and had no idea what it would taste like. I tooka gamble and ordered one bowl of “crossing over the bridge noodles”. A few minutes later the waitress carried over a heavy bowl full of broth (肉汤) and I quickly dugin. It was the best bowl of noodles I had ever tasted! I have been back again and againand each time I point at the one English sentence –“crossing over the bridge noodles”.I always enter a restaurant in China feeling excited and a little nervous.Who knows what the next ordering adventure will reveal?9. How does the writer find the English-language menus in many of Beijing’s restaurants?A. Confusing but amusing.B. Easy to understand.C. Boring and annoying.D. Accurate and helpful.10. The underlined word “gamble” in the last paragraph probably means ______.A. tasteB. lookC. sipD. risk11. The passage mainly tells us ______.A. the author’s favorite Chinese dishesB. the fun the author had ordering food in China’s restaurantC. a comparison between Western food and Chinese foodD. the correct way to translate the names of Chinese dishes into English12. The passage is developed mainly in the form of _____________.A. examples and statementsB. comparison and conclusionC. causes and effectsD. time and descriptionDThe term “multitasking” originally referred to a computer's ability to carryout several tasks at one time. For many people, multitasking has become a way of life and e ven a k ey t o s uccess.

Most people don’t find it difficult to eat and read the newspaperat the same time. However, when two or more attention-requiring tasks are attempted at one time, people sometimes make mistakes.We o ften d on't r emember t hings a s w ell w hen w e're t rying t o m anage s everal d etails at the same time. Without mental focus, we may not pay enough attention to new information coming in, so it never makes it into our memory stores. That is one ofthe main reasons why we forget people's names—even sometimes right after they have introduced themselves. Multitasking can also affect our relationships.
