How do I book a place on Airbnb?When you book a place on Airbnb, you are making arrangements to stay in someone's home． Each host hastheir own style of hospitality, starting with how they like to get to know their guests． Some hosts want to approve reservations, while others are comfortable letting you book their place instantly without waiting for approval．1．Complete Your Personal DetailsIn either case, it's important to know that Airbnb is a community that relies on trust． Complete your personal details before you request a reservation with a host, so they can know a little bit about you when theyconfirm． Your personal details should include photos and verifications （证明）, especially because some hosts require guests to have a profile photo and verified ID in order to book．2．Find the Right PlaceWith over 800, 000 unique listings around the world, you'll want to make sure the place you choose has everything you need for a comfortable and memorable trip． When searching for a place, make sure to include your dates and number of guests to get the most accurate pricing． Read reviews, descriptions, house rules, and facilities for each place to see if it's the right fit for your trip． You can always contact the host if you have any questions about their home．3．Book It!You've found the perfect place, and now it's time to make it official． This is where the host's preferred way of booking will determine how you'll confirm your reservation．• Instant BookFor hosts who don't want to approve each reservation, you'll see a button on their listing that says Instant Book． Like the name suggests, you can confirm a reservation at these places right away．• Request to BookMany hosts prefer to approve reservations before they're final． In this case, you'll see a button on their listingthat says Request to Book． To submit a reservation request, you'll need to enter your•payment details．Hosts have 24 hours to accept your request, and your reservation is automatically confirmed once they do．• Pre﹣approvals and Special OffersIf you decide to contact the host to ask questions before attempting to book, the host may respond to your message by inviting you to make a reservation with either a Pre﹣approval or a Special Offer． A Pre﹣approval is an invitation to finish booking for the dates and number of guests you noted in your message． A Special Offer givesthe host the opportunity to provide special pricing, dates, and other reservation details before you book．（1）When filling in your personal information， you need to________．A.request a reservation with a host．B.ask for approval from the host．C.provide your proof of identity．D.trust the community where you live．（2）To know the exact price， you should________．A.check the listings online in advance．B.contact the host to ask questions first．C.confirm your dates and number of guests．D.read previous reviews written by other users．（3）If you click the Request to Book button， you can________．A.get some special discounts．B.know the result within a day．C.get the approval immediately．D.receive a Pre﹣approval message．2. She sat at the picnic table alone． Recess （休息） was in full swing． She remained awkward around her classmates． She seemed unsure of what to do or say, yet I could see her eyes longing for acceptance． Many students had already decided that her friendship would not be worth the energy required to overcome the awkwardness． Others teased her． Most ignored her﹣except for one．Brianna, the class clown, was making the other students laugh, as usual． "Brianna, do you see Molly down there? Would you mind walking down there and inviting her to come up here with the rest of us? "Brianna sighed． I could tell she didn't want to sacrifice precious minutes of her own recess to do what I was asking of her, but I also knew her heart． She often thought of others before herself ﹣ a rare character for anyone, much less a kid．Knowing this choice was hard for her, I pulled out a D﹣buck, our class currency． Though bribery （行贿） was not the ideal way to handle this situation, I needed her cooperation．"Here, I'll pay you for your time．"She offered an insincere smile, grasped the green paper, and headed down the hill．As the rest of the children screamed and laughed, my eyes locked on Brianna as she neared the picnic table． Molly could be difficult, and I wouldn't have been surprised if she sent Brianna hack alone, refusing her invitation． When she encouraged herself to a standing position, I sighed with relief．A minute later, I felt a lap on my shoulder． "Here, Mrs． D．" She handed me the D﹣buck．"Why? " I asked．"I shouldn't keep this．" Her eyes fell to her feet, guilt radiating from her quiet voice． "I don't want Molly to think I only went to get her so I could earn a D﹣buck． She's my friend．"A moment later, they were all laughing again, and who should I see among them, laughing for the first lime that week?

A Japanese engineer has developed a transporter small enough to be carried in a backpack that he says is the world's first"car in a bag"．Twenty﹣six﹣year﹣old Kuniako Saito and his team at Cocoa Motors recently introduced to the public the battery: powered"WalkCar"transporter, which is the size of a laptop and resembles a skateboard more than a car．The slender WalkCar is made from aluminum and weighs between two and three kilograms, depending on whether it is an indoor or outdoor version．Saito expects to see many other uses for his transporter, as he says it has enough power to help people push wheelchairs with ease．The lightweight metal board is stronger than it looks, and can take loads of up to 120kg．It reaches top speeds of 10 kilometers per hour, for distances of up to 12 kilometers after three hours of charging．Its developer says it's also extremely simple to ride．Once the rider stands on it the WalkCar starts automatically, while simply stepping off stops the vehicle．To change direction, the user just shifts their weight．Best of all, there is no need to find a parking space, because it fits into a small bag when not in use．Saito said his studies in electric car motor control systems brought him the idea for the new kind of ride．"I thought, ‘what if we could just carry our transportation in our bags, wouldn't that mean we'd always have our transportation with us to ride on? ' And my friends asked me to make one, since I was doing my masters in engineering specifically on electric car motor control systems, "he said．Saito says customers will be able to reserve their own WalkCars from autumn 2017 on the crowd﹣funding website Kickstarter．The futuristic skateboard will have a price﹣tag of around 100, 000 Japanese Yen （approx．$800 USD）．Shipping is expected to begin by spring 2019．（1）What do we know about the transporter from the first paragraph？________A.It's safe．B.It's portable．C.It's heavy．D.It's expensive．（2）When the user steps off the WalkCar，it will________．A.stop running ．B.charge itself．C.start moving ．D.change direction．（3）What's the biggest advantage of the WalkCar？________A.It carries a lot．B.It's simple to ride．C.It doesn't burn any oil．D.It needs no parking lot．（4）What contributes to Saito's invention？________A.His friend's help．B.The popularity of cars．C.His studies in engineering．D.The advice from the disabled．4. Have you ever noticed tiny raised areas on the branches of a tree? These may have been insects． These small insects feed on tree sap （汁液）． Insects on urban trees are notably more abundant than those on rural trees． As a result, urban trees suffer from heavy infestations （害虫横行）, and are often unhealthy or die． To protect and restore urban trees' health, we need to determine the factors that make these tree pests more successful in urban habitats．Living organisms interact closely with their environment． The warmer, more drought﹣stressed trees harbor more successful pests than cooler, less drought﹣stressed trees． As cities and natural habitats become hotter and drier, damaging insects will become more abundant on urban trees．Trees within urban forests are valuable economically and for the environmental sustainability （可持续性） of the region． More than half of the world's population lives in cities． Across the globe, people are moving into cities at a faster rate than ever．Rapid growth may turn cities into places with harder conditions． Although cities are primarily made of buildings, roads, parking lots, and vehicles, there are still plants in them． The trees within a city are referred to as the urban forest． Urban forests offer very big benefits to human and environmental health． They improve air and water quality, provide habitat for wildlife, cool down temperatures and beautify our environment． They make cities livable．However, being a city tree is not easy． Heat released by human activities is trapped in cities． As aresult, temperatures in urban areas are often warmer than their surrounding rural areas． We call this urban warming or the urban heat island effect． Urban habitats are mostly made of surfaces of asphalt （沥青）and concrete． These surfaces reduce the amount of rainwater that reaches tree roots． As a result, urban forests may suffer, which can negatively affect people and the environment．What can we do to restore urban forests? Regular ________ when possible may help keep pest populations under control． Planting tree species that are suitable to handle heat and drought stress would also reduce the occurrence of insect pest outbreaks．（1）What makes tree pests more successful in the city than in rural areas？________A.The warmer and rainy habitat．B.The hotter and drier habitat．C.The cooler and drier habitat．D.The hotter and rainy habitat．（2）The underlined word "irrigation"in the last paragraph probably means________A.providing pesticide．B.providing nutrition．C.providing medicine．D.providing water．（3）According to the text， what results in the city trees' suffering？________A.Natural disasters．B.Invisible forces．C.Human activities．D.Natural evolution．（4）What would be the best title for the text？________A.The Importance of the Urban Trees．B.How to Protect the Urban Trees．C.Urban Trees Are in Great Danger．D.Let's Act for the Protection of Urban Trees．第二节（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，选项中有两项为多余选项．5.What Is Fear？Fear is a basic feeling arising when we feel threatened，and can have physical symptoms such as sweaty hands and an increased heart rate．（1）_______ On the upside…Fear means growth．Fear tells us we are moving towards the edge of our comfort zone．We are doing something unfamiliar and learning new skills．This means we are growing，and growth means that once we go beyond the uncomfortable bit，we will be stronger，better and brighter than before! （2）_______Things are never as bad as they seem．In most cases，the thing we fear is never as bad as we think it will be．When we are trying to make a decision to do something new，we lack the perspective to see further than the familiar range．（3）_______ No．If you look back on some of the scary things you've had to do in the past，you would now say"What was so scary aboutthis？!"．We are always stronger than we think!Fear can teach us so much about our personal powers．There is no other feeling like the victory you feel that makes you realize you won．（4）_______ Who cares？You've made the leap!This will build your confidence!Think of your yoga practice．We can stand on our hands，even though we sometimes doubt it．And it will make us realize that we are so strong!Fear is part of life，and doesn't need to be eliminated．（5）_______ We can welcome it；we can cope with it and proceed in spite of it．The best decisions in life are rarely the easiest ones．Or rather，they may seem easy，but often come with fear．To quit your job is not easy，but if you know it's the right thing to do，you know what you need to do．Following your heart will not come without fear，but it will come with big rewards．A．Face the feeling of fear bravely．B．And everything unfamiliar is scary？C．Catch every opportunity to be successful．D．We don't need to remove fear from our lives．E．So when you feel fear approaching，say thank you!F．You succeeded，even though not every try is perfect．G．But it can be a useful feeling when it comes to keeping us safe．第三部分：英语知识运用（共两节）第一节：完形填空（共20 小题；每小题1.5分，满分30分）阅读下面短文，从短文后所给各题的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑．6.
