They reached the top【C1】______(success)but on their way back conditions were very difficult. Joe fell and broke his leg.They both knew that【C2】______ Simon continued alone, he would probably get back safely. But Simon decided to risk his life and try to lower Joe down the mountain on a【C3】ro______. The weather got worse as they went down. Then another disaster【C4】h______. They couldn't see or hear each other and, by mistake , Simon lowered his friend over the edge of a precipice(悬崖). It was impossible for Joe to climb back or for Simon to pull him up. Joe's【C5】______(weigh)was pulling Simon slowly towards the precipice. Finally, after more than an hour in the dark and the【C6】______(ice)cold,Simon had to make a decision. He cut the rope. Joe fell into a huge crevasse(裂缝)in the ice below—but he survived. He had no food or water and he was in terrible pain. He couldn't walk, but he【C7】man______to get out of the crevasse. Then he started to hop and crawl towards their camp, nearly ten kilometres away. Simon had returned to the camp at the foot of the mountain. He thought that Joe must be【C8】______, but he didn't want to leave immediately. Three days later, in the middle of the night, he heard Joe's voice calling his name. He couldn't believe it. Joe was there, a few metres from their tent, still【C9】______(live). Simon felt guilty about cutting【C10】______rope, but both men believed he had done everything possible to save his friend.1. 【C1】2. 【C2】3. 【C3】4. 【C4】5. 【C5】6. 【C6】7. 【C7】8. 【C8】9. 【C9】10. 【C10】Part ⅢReading Comperhension Section APublic holidays and festivals are an important part of a country's life. They give everyone a break from routine and they form part of the annual life in that country.Sometimes they celebrate a day in a country's history, commemorate a special person , mark the passing of time or celebrate a religious festival.Many national festivals have been celebrated for years, but occasionally new ones come along and old ones gradually disappear. This is unlikely to happen to Burns' Night or St. Patrick's Day, however. The two festivals are celebrated far beyond their native land. The first of these, Burns' Night on 25 January, marks the birthday of the Scottish poet Robert Burns(1759—1796). It is celebrated by his countrymen and admirers, not only in Scotland but all over the world, from New York to Sydney, from Toronto to Tokyo.On Burns' Night the guests eat haggis. Haggis is chopped mutton and other ingredients encased in sheep's gut, which is boiled before being served. The haggis is brought into the room to the sound of the bagpipes and the chief guest "addresses" it reciting Burns' poem "Ode to the Haggis". After eating, the other guests recite more of Burns' poems, sing Scottish tunes and drink a lot of whisky. Another widely celebrated festival is St. Patrick's Day(17 March), which celebrates the life of the 5th-century saint, St. Patrick. St. Patrick was Bishop of Ireland, and it is said that he gave Ireland its national symbol when he illustrated his religious teaching with the shamrock—a three-leafed clover. But the festival is now more than anything a celebration of "Irishness" , whether it takes place in Dublin, Auckland, Melbourne, Montreal or Boston. On St. Patrick's Day there are big parades, and people wear shamrocks. In some places people add green colouring to the beer and even to rivers and streams. They go out and have " a good craic"(pronounced "crack")—Irish for good fun. Questions 56—60 Complete the table with no more than three words from the passage.56.57.58.59.60.Section BPeople wear clothes to protect their bodies from the cold or the burning sun, from insect bites and injuries, and from the unwelcome eyes of strangers. However, what people wear can also convey a message about who they are and their role in society.For example, visit nearly any country in the world and you will notice that young people everywhere are wearing fashionable blue jeans. They wear them not for work, but for social occasions such as parties and concerts. The jeans are somewhat of an index of how these young people view themselves : I'm modern and stylish. I'm different from the traditional older generation. 【B1】______They can convey allegiance to schools and sports teams, advertise places or products, serve as wearable travel souvenirs, and commemorate important occasions. These messages clearly tell others, This is what Iwant you to know about me. 【B2】______It says that the person wants to impress others with his or her professional status. A fitted jacket and matching trousers constitute a man's suit, while a fitted jacket and matching skirt constitute a woman's suit. A collared shirt and a necktie are integral parts of the man's outfit, while stockings and high-heeled shoes complete the woman's. 【B3】______Military personnel are easy to identify by their uniforms. The same is true for civil emergency personnel like police officers and firefighters. In certain contexts, special clothing is worn to differentiate not only the occupation of people, but also their authority. For example, the chef's tall white hat indicates his job and that he's in charge in the restaurant's kitchen. 【B4】______ For example, Scotsmen were distinctive tartans to show their clan affiliation, just as school uniforms identify children as students at a certain school.【B5】______In Western societies, women—and often men—wear wedding rings on their left hands. Other cultures use different symbols. Hindu women, for example, wear a red powder in their hair after they marry. Clothing serves many functions beyond just protecting our bodies. Clothing can tell a lot about the people who wear it. Questions 61—65Complete the passage with the following sentences. There are two extra sentences that you do not need to use.A. Clothing might also show which group a person belongs to.B. An even more direct means whereby people make statements about themselves is via messages printed on T-shirts.C. A uniform identifies the occupation of many people.D. Societies choose different ways to show marital status.E. Jeans make such an important statement that, in some groups, a person might be judged by the brand of jeans he or she is wearing.F. Often the original significance of the clothing has been forgotten or has changed over time.G. Just as blue jeans and T-shirtssay a great deal about the people who are wearing them, so does the Western business suit.6. 【B1】7. 【B2】8. 【B3】9. 【B4】10. 【B5】Section CChina's first Nobel Prize winner in physiology or medicine, Tu Youyou, celebrated her 86 th birthday by signing an official agreement to donate 1 million yuan to establish the Peking University Tu Youyou Talent Award Foundation.The initiative will provide financial support and incentives to the university's students and young teachers of medicine. A vice-chairman of the National Committee of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference and a vice-minister of education witnessed the signing at Tu's residence on December 25th, 2016, a few days before her birthday on December 30th. "I've gotten to where I am now thanks to the university's medicine programme," Tu says. "I hope the younger generation can achieve even more. " Young researchers enjoy a favourable environment compared with the past, as the country is now very supportive of science and innovation, she says. Tu is best-known for discovering the use of artemisinin(青蒿素)and dihydroartemisinin(双氢青蒿素)to treat malaria(疟疾). She shared the Nobel Prize in 2015 with Irishman William Campbell and Japanese Satoshi Omura for developing therapies against malaria and infections caused by roundworm parasites. That made her the first Chinese Nobelwinner in physiology or medicine, and the first Nobel winner whose education and research was completed exclusively in China.Tu enrolled in Peking University's medicine school(now the Peking University Health Science Centre)in 1951. After graduation, she continued her studies and research of fusing traditional Chinese and modern Western medicines at the China Academy of Chinese Medical Sciences, where she still works. She won the top medical-science prize, the Lasker Award, in 2011. She was the first Chinese to claim the honour. Her foundation will award 5, 000 yuan per student and 25, 000 yuan per teacher. The foundation's annual earnings will determine the number of recipients each year. The PKU Health Science Centre, founded in 1912, ranks among China's most prestigious medical schools. It has earned international prominence for its researchers' achievements. And some of the research has been published in the journal Science. Questions 66—70 Answer the following questions according to the passage.11. How did Tu Youyou celebrate her 86th birthday?12. What was Tu Youyou's contribution to medicine?13. Who won the Nobel Prize in physiology or medicine of 2015?14. How many students and young teachers can receive awards from the foundation each year?15. When was the Peking University Health Science Centre founded?Section DIn this age of consumerism, many people are finding themselves overloaded with possessions and a desire for even more, probably as a result of the countless advertisements we are exposed to. With advertisers finding new ways to get people tobuy their products, a movement towards living a simpler non-consumer life is taking newspaper columnist Craig Wilson spent all of 2003 spending the least amount of money possible. He allowed himself to purchase books, music and gifts. Otherwise, he would not permit himself to buy anything new. Although he had to avoid certain stores, he was able to achieve his goal. He claims the experience was beneficial, and he continues to keep shopping to a minimum. Popular author Judith Levine came up with the idea and also found the experiment worthwhile. In 2006, a group of ten friends in San Francisco took the idea and made a pledge to live as cheaply as possible for a year. They posted their agreement online and attracted thousands of supporters, many of whom promised to join. An appearance on US TV led to global publicity and more members joined them. The pledge followed two rules: 1)Don't buy new products of any kind, and 2)either borrow or buy used merchandise. They allowed several exceptions to the rules. Although a few members failed to follow the rules at times, they generally succeeded and most of them continue their pledge to this day. Says Rachel, " It makes you change the way you look at things and appreciate what you have. " She estimates that she saved $4,000 that year. There are critics of the simplicity movement. Author Ted Nordhaus warns that this movement is unlikely to be successful on a large scale. Developing nations need markets for what they produce. He says, "To live is to consume, and only technology and innovation can begin to address these global issues. " Though living more simply may not solve all of the world's problems, many of us could reconsider our consumption practices that are putting a strain on our natural resources and add to rising levels of pollution. Indeed, in times when money is short, more people will be reducing their spending out ofnecessity, rather than out of concern for the environment. Regardless of the motivation, radically rethinking the ways we spend money and value possessions may be just what the world needs. Questions 71—75Complete the summary with a maximum of two words from the passage, changing the form where necessary.Due to the negative effects of【R1】______, many people are making an effort to reduce their amount of spending. They try to make their lives【R2】______by shopping less for new products they may not really need. A group of friends attracted so much【R3】______with their plan to avoid buying new products. They did allow for some【R4】______ to their no-shopping rules. There are some critics, however, who don't believe the movement will【R5】______ on a large scale. But many people still think it is necessary to rethink the ways we spend money and the value of new possessions.【R1】【R2】【R3】【R4】【R5】Part ⅣError CorrectionBicycle sharing has been a hotly debated topic over the past two years. Bicycles are nothingexotic to Chinese people. In the 1960s and 1970s, every family dream to own a bicycle, 【M1】______considering it a symbol of household wealth. In the 1980s, bicycles became a daily necessity andmost important means of transport for the Chinese. Since the 1990s, bicycles have lost 【M2】______their popularity as cars have gradually dominated China's streets. Even today, cars remain the symbols forfortune in society. Currently, bicycle sharing is fueling a cycling renaissance.【M3】______Public bicycle rental systems have been established in many countries, most by the 【M4】______government. Citizens only need to insert coins or swipe a special card to rent a bicycle and then return it to a fixed spot. And China's bicycle-sharing market is nothing like that. Equipped with a【M5】______GPS system, "Mobike" and "ofo" , China's two largest bicycle rental startups, they enable【M6】______people to locate, book, and unlock a bicycle in their neighbourhood via a smartphone. Cyclerscan drop the bicycle somewhere as long as it doesn't disturb traffic. To some extent, 【M7】______China's bicycle-sharing industry has provided more convenience to city commuters. 【M8】______In 2015, the numbers of shared bicycles in China exceeded every other country. Although【M9】______the future of this business model is still unclear, bicycle-sharing is bound to change people's ways of travel. It embodies China's focus on efficiency, high costs and environmental protection.【M10】______1. 【M1】2. 【M2】3. 【M3】4. 【M4】5. 【M5】6. 【M6】7. 【M7】8. 【M8】9. 【M9】10. 【M10】Part ⅤTranslationSection A1. The Times is one of Britain's oldest and most influential newspapers. It began its life in 1785. In the nineteenth century, The Times developed a reputation for accurate reporting and independent editorial views. It is published in London, along with its sister newspaper, The Sunday Times, which has at least ten sections and takes all week to read! " The Times has had an excellent reputation for over 200 years," said its editor, who has worked for the paper since 1980, "and now we are trying our best to continue that tradition in order to produce a newspaper for the twenty-first century.

Indeed, in times when money is short, more people will be reducing their spending out ofnecessity, rather than out of concern for the environment. Regardless of the motivation, radically rethinking the ways we spend money and value possessions may be just what the world needs.
