A

You may be familiar with those quotes, but seldom can you associate these quotes with those outstanding women behind them, not to mention the great work they did.

★“Despite everything, I believe that people are really good at heart.”

—Anne Frank (1929 — 1945) Hiding from the German forces, Anne Frank, a young Jewish girl, was gifted a diary by her father when she was 13. However, her diary was published after her death in Bergen-Belsen concentration camp at the age of 15. The diary served as a unique eye-witness account of life during Holocaust (mass murder of about six million Jews during World War II) and it became one of the world’s most read books.

★“Not all of us can do great things? But we can do small things with great love.”

—Mother Teresa (1910 — 1997) Mother Teresa, the Nobel Peace Prize winner (1979), aimed at looking after those children

who had nobody to look after them through her own orde r “the Missionaries of Charity”. She worked tirelessly towards her goal until her ill-health forced her to step down in March 1997, after which she took her last breath in September 1997.

★“If you set out to be liked, you would be prepared to compromise o n anything at any time, and you would achieve nothing.”

—Margaret Thatcher (1925 — 2013) Margaret Thatcher was loved and hated equally for some of her policies but she never compromise (妥协). She was known as “the Iron Lady” for her leadership style. From being a grocer’s daughter to graduating from Oxford University to becoming a banister, she went on to become Britain’s first and to date, only female Prime Minister elected in 1979 and the country’s fifth longest serving leader.

★“I knew someone had to ta ke the first step and I made up my mind not to move.”

—Rosa Parks (1913 — 2005) Also known as “the first lady of civil rights”, Rosa Parks was a pioneer of civil rights in a racially segregated Alabama in 1950s. In 1955, she refused to give away her seat to a white passenger in a bus, disobeying the bus driver’s orders. This act of hers sparked the Montgomery Bus Boycott that crippled the state capital’s public transport system.

21. What did Anne Frank describe in her diary?

A. The great gift her father sent her.

B. Jewish family traditions.

C. The sad life of Jews during Holocaust.

D. Her survival from Bergen-Belsen camp.

22. What was Mother Teresa honored for?

A. Her work in helping the homeless children.

B. Her efforts to promote her religious belief.

C. Her great courage to battle against her disease.

D. Her spirit of pursuing life-long career success.

23. Margaret Thatcher earned her title of “the Iron Lady” for .

A. her rich family background

B. her style of never compromising

C. the good education she had received

D. being elected the first woman leader

24. What did Rosa Parks mean by saying “I made up my mind not to move”?

A. She would stay in Montgomery to fight against Bus Boycott.

B. She decided to live in America in spite of hardship.

C. She hated the impoliteness of the white passenger.

D. She refused to offer her seat to a white person in the bus.

B

Experts generally consider BMI for kids to be a good measure of body fat, at least among heavier children. But in some cases it might be misleading. Athletic kids, in particular, may fall into the overweight category when they are actually muscular.

Your child’s BMI is important, but it is only a piece of the picture. If a BMI percentile (体重指数) indicates that your child is not within the healthy range, she needs a complete weight and lifestyle evaluation with a doctor.

Experts recommend that kids of all ages and all weight categories follow these healthy guidelines to keep weight in control. It’s easy to remember them as “5 — 2 — 1 —0” every day.

5 > Everyone in your family needs five servings of vegetables and fruit. Keep serving them even if kids don’t eat them. If they see a food over and over, they’re more likely to try it in the end.

2 > Limit TV-watching to no more than 2 hours a day. Family members who use other “screens”—video games or computers, for instance, get less TV time. And kick the TV out of all bedrooms.

1 > Get 1 hour of physical activity. Add up the minutes each family member is moving —it should be 60 minutes or more for each person. Start small and keep adding if necessary.

0 > That’s how many sugar-sweetened beverages you should have a day. Juice drinks such as lemonade and fruit punch, sodas, tea, and coffee can all have added sugar. Stick to water and reduced-fat milk instead.

25. In the author’s opinion, BMI .

A. shows the state of children’s health exactly

B. plays an important role in children athletics

C. can’t be considered as the only standard

D. was created by some experts to mislead parents

26. What should we d o according to “5 — 2 — 1 —0” healthy guidelines?

A. Drink tea instead of milk or coffee every day.

B. Get 1 hour of physical activity at a time.

C. Keep serving vegetables and fruit to kids.

D. Stop watching TV or playing video games.

27. What is the main purpose of the passage?

A. To argue and discuss.

B. To doubt and criticise.

C. To examine and comment.

D. To inform and suggest.

C

John 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 to study. 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 m ost 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 ed ucation 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.

28. 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.

29. 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.

30. 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.

31. We can learn that the author wrote a book about .

A. conducting a scientific survey

B. changing your way of thinking

C. developing good human relations

D. giving a practical business course

D

2017 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.

32. 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.

33. The author takes the example of “the doctor” to explain that .

A. AI always makes right decisions

B. doctors will lose their jobs very soon

C. human intelligence grows with AI

D. humans are no better than AI in medicine

34. What will b e 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.

35. What is the author’s attitude towards AI?

A. Indifferent.

B. Negative.

C. Doubtful.

D. Objective.

Ever look at some of the older people in your life and wonder what the secret to their happiness is. 36 It isn’t that they’ve uncovered some mystical secret, they’ve merely mad e a bunch of simple life realizations later in life. Yet you do not need to be older in order to set some new rules and boundaries. These simple rules will help you to slow down and enjoy more of your everyday life.

Live your own life.

Things really aren’t always what they seem and comparing your life goals to those of your friends will only make you anxious. Everyone experiences ups and downs. 37 Those Facebook friends who seem to have it all are only showing their highest moments.

Focus on one task at a time.

Most of us are not good at multi-tasking, which makes things harder. 38 You may be surprised at how much easier and faster your tasks become when you stop trying to do more than your brain can comfortably handle.

Disconnect a little.

39 Howe ver, have you ever noticed that people who didn’t grow up with it? They may not be connected by the millennial’s definition of the word. However they are still maintaining relationships and enjoying life without at-your-fingertips information. Give it a break from time to time when you don’t need it for work or studies, even if just for a couple of hours a day.

There is no standard for when in your life you should decide you are happy and satisfied. Instead of reaching for the distant future, try enhancing your now. 40 That is one secret to their happiness. Learning to slow down sooner rather than later will help you to enjoy today and tomorrow.

A. The unhurried life is worth pursuing.

B. Technology is a huge part of modern life.

C. Why are they so calm, relaxed, and unhurried?

D. Old souls have learned about living in the moment.

E. Give your brain a break and focus on j ust one thing at a time.

F. There is no need to chase after a new goal simply to live in someone else, s life.

G. It is a bad habit to keep your life full of busy schedules from sunrise to sundown.

Every day has the potential to be a good and, in some cases, a great day for you. Few of us get up in the morning, 61 (think) that we want this to be a bad day. Yet in many cases the day turns that way because of a person or an event 62 we worry about.
