第I 卷（选择题）一、 阅读理解AAlex Elman runs a big business — something difficult to imagine after she lost her sight in her twenties. But Elman says that losing her sight helped her focus on finding success.Elman’s father planted a hillside vineyard in western Massachusetts in 1981. It’s where E lman fled during the darkest period of her life. When she was 27 years old, she went blind due to complications from juvenile diabetes (糖尿病) 17 years ago. She recalled, “I hid in my home. I hid in the place. For me, that was the safest place in the world.”Elman is now the founder of Alex Elman Wines, a growing portfolio (系列产品) of organic wines from all around the world: Chianti from Italy, Torrontes from Argentina. Elman doesn’t work alone. Her assistant, a guide dog named Hanley, is something of a wine snob, and quite a beggar. Hanley travels to all of the wineries that Elman does, from South America to Europe.At first, Elman resisted the idea of a guide-dog. Now it’s hard to imagine her life, or her business, without him. She said. “When someone tells me something is organic and I don’t really believe it because I taste something funny on it, I’ll put it in front of his face and if he likes the wine, he’ll go to sniff it. If it’s not right, he’ll turn his hea d away. He gets in the dirt with me. He scratch es around. He makes sure that we see earthworms and butterflies. That’s how we know that the soil is actually organic, and that there are no chemicals.”Elman told CBS News she believes the loss of her vision was a gift. She said, “It allowed me to pay att ention to what I thought was important and also to be able to teach people that the broken hang nail is not a big deal, you knowwhat I mean? Don’t sweat the small stuff. Don’t sweat the big stuff either.”1．Elman hid herself in her father’s vineyard proba bly because she ________. A ． suffered from juvenile diabetes B ． was extremely painful for her blindness C ． would like to help her father with the work D ． expected to recover her sight sooner or later2．The underlined phrase “the broken hang nail” (in Parag raph 5) probably refers to _____. A ． a nail which is of no useB ． a disadvantage you have in your lifeC ． a person who is hard to deal withD ． a task that is not easy to accomplish3．This passage is mainly to tell us that _________. A ． Alex Elman leads a miserable life B ． Hanley brings Alex Elman much fun C ． Alex Elman gets along well with her pet D ． a blind woman tastes success in wine businessBRegardless of how far we’d like to believe gender （性别）equality in the workplace has come, there’s still a yawning gap between male and female leaders in the professional world. A 2018 statistic shows that women nowadays hold just 5.8 percent of CEOs positions at S&P 500 companies, according to Catalyst.While it’s not a huge shock that women are somewhat underrepres ented in leadership positions, what is surprising though, is the fact that females may actually be better suited to lead in almost every area, at least according to new findings from the BI Norwegian Business School.In their research, Professor Oyvind L. Martinsen and Professor Lars Glas surveyed (调查) 2,900 managers with a special focus on personality types. The results were clear: Women scored higher than men in four of the five major leadership-centric categories.While some people believe that men inherently make better leaders — probably because they picture a leader with a commanding voice, which is more typical of men than women — this piece of research suggests that women班级 姓名 准考证号 考场号 座位号are better at methodical management and goal-setting, openness, sociability and supportiveness, as well as ability to communicate clearly.There was one area in which men scored higher than women, though, and that was on emotional stability and ability to face job-related pressure and stress. The results suggest that women are more sensitive to the effects of high-pressure or highly emotional situations.Obviously, it’s important to consider individual (个人的) differences. Anyone, regardless of gender, may be an inspiring leader and a competent boss. But next time you’re hiring for a ma nagement position, you just might want to give the resumes (简历) from female candidates a harder look.4．What makes us shocked much at leadership positions?A．Women are worse than men.B．Men take almost all high positions.C．There is a huge gap between genders.D．Women might behave better in nearly every field.5．Which of the following can best replace the underlined word “inherently” in Paragraph 4?A．properly B．potentiallyC．naturally D．normally6．Which of the following may be the best title of this text?A．How We Can Figure Out The BossB．Why Women Are Better Than MenC．Why Women Make The Best BossesD．How We Can Tell Gender Difference7．Who might have special interest in this article?A．Job hunters.B．Employers.C．Employees.D．Male bosses.CWhen Ariyah Georges was born 15 weeks early, she weighed only one pound, 12 ounces. Her mother, Jovan, knew how important breastfeeding was, especially for a premature (早产的) baby like Ariyah, so she began pumping milk to feed her through a tube. But two days later, Jovan felt dizzy and feverish — 104 Fahrenheit degrees, in fact. She had a blood disease and was close to full shock.She was separated from others for nearly two weeks at the regional Northern Virginia hospital where she’d delivered. During that time, she could still pump breast milk, but Ariyah couldn’t consume it because of the risk of infection (感染). Without it, the newborn was particularly easily affected by diseases. There are many cases like this, which creates the need for the milk donation.Enter donor milk —breast milk purchased by hospitals for mothers who aren’t able to produce enough milk on their own, due to health complications, stresses, or other factors. The milk comes from milk banks, organizations that collect and screen breast milk from those women willing to donate. Usually processed in intensive-care units, the milk is only available by prescription.In recent years, both milk banks and the use of donated human milk have risen swiftly in the United States. In 2011, 22 percent of NICUs used donor breast milk; four years later, that number doubled to nearly 40 percent, and went even higher for the most intensive NICUs — as much as 75 percent. There are 23 milk banks in the United States recognized by the Human Milk Banking Association of North America, or HMBANA, double the number that existed five years ago.But as the demand for donor milk rises, banks must find more charitable donors —a task made more complicated by informal networks of milk sharing that happens online. And many of the most vulnerable infants are still not being reached.8．What’s the problem of Ariyah when she was born?A．She had a shock.B．She was too light.C．She had a blood infection.D．She felt dizzy and feverish.9．What’s the i nfluence if a mom has no breast milk?A．The mom can still pump breast milk.B．The mom will have to stay at the hospital.C．The baby will be separated from others.D．It is more likely for the baby to catch a disease.10．What is the purpose of using figures in Paragraph 4?A．To call healthy moms to donate breast milk.B．To show the demand change of donated human milk.C．To show the shortage of breast milk in milk banks.D．To raise the awareness of the importance of breast milk.11．Where would you most probably see the text above?A．In a historical fiction.B．In a science magazine.C．In an entertainment newspaper.D．In a textbook.DOne of the most striking findings of a newly research in the UK is that of the people interviewed, one in two believes that it is becoming more difficult to meet someone to start a family with.Why are many finding it increasingly difficult to start close relationships? Does modern life really make it harder to fall in love? Or are we making it harder for ourselves? It is certainly the case today that contemporary couples benefit in different ways from relationships. Women no longer rely upon partners for money or status. A man doesn’t expect his wife to be in sole (唯一的) charge of running his household and raising his children.But perhaps the knowledge that we can live perfectly well without a partnership means that it takes much more to persuade people to abandon their independence.In theory, finding a partner should be much simpler these days. Only a few generations ago, your choice of soul mate was limited by geography, social convention and family tradition. Although it was never clear, many marriages were essentially arranged. Now those barriers have been broken down. You can approach a builder or a brain surgeon in any bar in any city on any given evening. When the world is your oyster (牡蛎), you surely have a better chance of finding a pearl.But it seems that the old conventions have been replaced by the limitation of choice. The expectations of partners are raised to an unmanageable degree: good looks, impressive salary, kind to grandmother, and right socks. There is no room for error in the first impression.We think that a relationship can be perfect. If it isn’t, it should be ended. We work to protect ourselves against future heartache and don’t put in the hard emotional labor needed to build a strong relationship. Twelve-hour work at the office makes relaxed after-hours dating difficult. The cost of housing and child-raising creates pressure to have a stable income and career before a life partnership.12．What is a contemporary family like in UK today?A．Couples share the burdens.B．Men begin to depend on women.C．Women are responsible for housework.D．It is difficult to take care of a family.13．Why do people preserve their independence?A．To live alone happily.B．To have more choices.C．To avoid marriages.D．To ignore traditions.14．What makes it hard for people to date?A．Mental headache in dating.B．The pressure to survive.C．Bad luck in finding a partner.D．The faith between life partners.15．What is the author trying to inform us in this text?A．Perfect marriages conflict with independence.B．People should spend more money on marriages.C．The expectations and reality separate the lovers.D．Independence is much more important than love.二、七选五It is sometimes thought that the longing for material goods, the need to buy things, is a relatively modern invention. 16．Trade or shopping is certainly an ancient desire, and existed before our ancestors invented writing, laws, cities or farming, even before they used metal to make tools.Humans are born to trade. 17．Evidence from hunter-gatherers suggests that the exchange of food and other necessary things comes naturally, as well as the ability to keep a record of the credits involved. And once trade begins, the benefits are hard to resist.Ancient local coastal people in northern Australia traded fish hooks, along a chain of trading partners, with people living 400 miles inland, who cut and polished local stone to make axes (斧子). 18．Finally, both groups of “producers”, by concentrating on things they could produce and exchanging them for other things they needed, benefited as a result.Trade in the necessities of life, such as food and simple tools, is not really surprising, considering the link between these basic items and survival. What is surprising, though, is that our taste for unnecessary expensive objects also goes back a long way.In South Africa, 100,000-year-old decorative dyes (染料) have been found in an area where none were produced. 19．Small round pieces of glass 76,000 years old were also found at the same place. The earliest jewelry known to us were not just random findings — they were grouped together in size and had holes like those used for threading onto a necklace.Archaeologists argue that trade prepared the way for the complex societies in which we live today. 20．However, their modern equivalents — fast cars and expensive clothes — hold the same attraction for us as “trade goods” did for people 100,000 years ago.A． And we don’t need shops or money to do it.B． These are powerful evidence for cash purchase.C． In fact, its roots go back to the beginning of humanity.D． However, first trade began from the exchange of objects.E. Modern-day shoppers may not be impressed by ancient glass pieces.F. It is thought that these goods were bought at least 30 kilometres away.G. Every individual along the chain made a profit, even if he produced neither himself.三、完形填空I am an educator born to make a difference. I have spent my entire life at the __21__.
