AThese people are studying English. However, they are now facing some problems.I am Pablo. I work 50 hours a week as a taxi driver, so I talk with people all day. They understand me, but I know I make a lot of mistakes. No one corrects me. My vocabulary is strong. Grammar is my problem. I’m trying to change little by little. For example, I don’t use the past tense.I always say, “I drive him to the office this morning” instead of “I drove him to the office this morning”.My name is Maria Luisa. I’m teaching myself English, and I’m good at grammar. However, it’s really difficult to find ways to practice English. I live in an area where everyone speaks my language. My neighbours and friends speak Spanish. I can speak Spanish in the supermarket and at the post office.I am Li Ping. I understand the grammar and the readings in my class and I think my writing is good, but I’m very nervous when I speak English. I don’t want to make any mistakes because I’m afraid people will think that I’m stupid. Also, my pronunciation isn’t good. When I speak, people often say, “What? Say that again. ”I am Yoshi. I have been in the United States for one year. I’m studying hard and I know grammar well, but the vocabulary is very difficult. When I listen, I don’t understand many of the words. When I try to read, there are three or four new words in every sentence. I feel discouraged.1. What would be the best advice for Maria Luisa?A. Try to have a wide vocabulary.B. Make friends with English-speaking people.C. Read as many English books as possible.D. Develop a good knowledge of grammar.2. Why do people find it hard to understand Li Ping’s English?A. Her voice is very low.B. Her grammar is terrible.C. She can’t pronounce words correctly.D. She speaks at a very fast speed.3. What can we learn about Yoshi?A. He has a very small vocabulary.B. He is very good at listening.C. He has learned English for years.D. He was born in the United States.BParents often believe that they have a good relationship with their teenagers. But last summer, Joanna and Henry noticed a change in their older son. Suddenly he seemed to be talking far more to his friends than to his parents. “The door to his room is always shut. ”Joanna noted.Tina and Mark noticed similar changes in their 14-year-old daughter. “She used to sit in my arms on the sofa and talk with me,” said Mark. “Now we joke that she does this only when she wants something. Sometimes she wants to be treated like a little girl and sometimes like a young lady. The problem is figuring out which time is which.”Before age 11, children like to tell their parents what’s on their minds. “In fact, parents are first on the list.” said Michael Riera, author of Uncommon Sense for Parents with Teenagers. “This completely changes during the teen years.” Riera explained. “They talk to their friends first, then maybe their teachers, and their parents last.”Parents who know what’s going on in their teenagers’ lives are in the best position to help them. To break down the wall of silence, parents should create chances to understand what their children want to say, and try to find ways to talk and write to them. And they must give their children a mental (思想的) break, for children also need freedom, though young. Another thing parents should remember is that to be a friend, not a manager, with their children is a better way to know them.4. “The door to his room is always shut. ” suggests that the son ______.A. dislikes to open his doorB. begins to hate his parentsC. is always busy with his studiesD. keeps himself away from his parents5. What troubles Tina and Mark most?A. Their daughter isn’t as lovely as before.B. They can’t read their daughter’s mind exactly.C. They don’t know what to say to their daughter.D. Their daughter talks with them only when she needs money.6. Which of the following best explains “the wall of silence” in the last paragraph?A. Teenagers talk a lot with their friends.B. Teenagers talk little about their own lives.C. Teenagers do not talk much with their parents.D. Teenagers do not want to understand their parents.7. What can we learn from the passage?A. Parents are patient with their silent teenagers.B. Parents should try to understand their teenagers.C. Parents are unhappy with their growing children.D. Parents should have suitable ways to talk with their teenagers.CTwo weeks ago, a 5-year-old girl named Sunshine Oelfke emptied out her piggy bank (存钱罐) onto the living room floor and immediately started counting. Her grandmother, Jackie Oelfke, thought she was playing as she carefully lined up the coins, but then she saw the girl put the coins into a plastic bag and place it in her backpack.“That aroused my curiosity,” Jackie told CBS News. “Nobody messes with the piggy bank.” After observing Sunshine work a few minutes longer, Jackie decided to find out why the little girl broke into her savings.“What are you doing with that money?” Jackie asked her granddaughter.“I’m taking it to school,” Sunshine replied. The little girl finally stated the real reason why she needed the money. “I’m going to take it for milk money. My friend Layla doesn’t get milk—hermom doesn’t have milk money but I have. ”Jackie’s heart melted at Sunshine’s words. Choked with strong feelings, Jackie held her sweet granddaughter tightly in her arms.Last week, Jackie and Sunshine met with her teacher, Rita Hausher, and handed her the $30 that Sunshine had saved. There are 20 kids in Sunshine’s class and about half don’t get milk. It costs﹩0.45 a carton (纸盒). The total adds up to about﹩180 a month for every child in the class to have milk every day.After dropping Sunshine off at school, Jackie posted a tearful video on Facebook to explain her granddaughter’s plan. To her surprise, dozens of people offered to donate towards the cause. Within a week, Jackie raised more than $1, 000. Now every student in Sunshine’s class can get free milk for the rest of the year.Jackie said Sunshine doesn’t see her kind act as a big deal. She was just trying to look out for her friends. “She doesn’t understand the effect she’s brought about,” Jackie said. “But now she knows she can do whatever she puts her mind to. ”8. Why did Sunshine empty her piggy bank?A. She wanted to play with the coins.B. She needed to train her counting skills.C. She intended to pay for her friend’s milk.D. She hoped to show off her savings in class.9. How did Jackie feel on hearing Sunshine’s words?A. Touched.B. Curious.C. Proud.D. Relieved.10. In Jackie’s eyes, what did Sunshine learn from the experience?A. Many hands make light work.B. Two heads are better than one.C. A friend in need is a friend indeed.D. Nothing is impossible to a willing heart.11. What is the best title for this passage?A. Small Coins, Big DeedsB. Jackie’s Piggy BankC. A Moved GrandmotherD. Piggy Bank and Carton MilkDSmartphones, tablets and smart watches are banned at school for all children under 15 in France. Under the ban students are not able to use their phones at all during school hours, including meal breaks.“I think it's a good thing. School is not about being on your phone,” Paris mum MarieCaroline Madeleine told AFP. “It's hard with kids. You can't control what they see and that's one of the things that worries me as a parent.”There is no law like this in Australia, but some Australian schools have banned phones.McKinnon Secondary School in Victoria introduced a total ban in February and Principal Pitsa Binnion said this had been a success.McKinnon students still have a Chromebook to use in every class for daytoday learning but they're not allowed to use social media. Ms Binnion said at first “Teachers cheered and students moaned (抱怨)，” but now they're seeing the positives．“They come to school and they're not allowed to use phones at all during the school day, including lunch breaks,” she said.“It's been wonderful in terms of students communicating with each other at lunchtime and not looking at their screens,” she said.Ms Binnion also leads by example and doesn't use her mobile phone in school.“I think anyone can do it if we've done it.”Not everyone agrees with the bans. Western Sydney University technology researcher DrJoanne Orlando wrote in online magazine The Conversation earlier this year that Australia should not ban phones in schools because it's important to educate kids to live in the age they are raised in.“A good education for students today is knowing how to use technology to learn, communicate and work with ideas,” she wrote. “Banning students from using smartphones is a 1950s response (反应) to a 2018 stateofplay.”12．Why did Madeleine welcome the ban?A．School is for studying. B．Kids behave badly nowadays. C．Teachers find it hard to control kids. D．Her kids depend too much on phones. 13．What can we learn about the ban in McKinnon Secondary School?A．Some teachers were against it at first.B．Students can now see the good of the ban.C．Students can use their phones at lunch breaks.D．Teachers have stopped using phones at school as well.14．What does the underlined word “Chromebook” in Paragraph 5 probably refer to?A．A book.B．A notebook. C．A learning website.D．A kind of computer. 15．What does Dr Joanne Orlando think of banning phones in schools?A．It will disconnect parents and kids.B．It will cause kids to communicate less.C．It will prevent kids being techminded.D．It will make education go back 60 years.第二节七选五根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

句意：那个人取下一只金表，这只表的指针是由小的钻石做的。
本题定语从句的先行词是a small gold watch，在定语从句中which指代先行词作为介词of的宾语，所以空处需用the hands of which引导非限制性定语从句；关系词whom的先行词只能是人，D项的位置错误。

他一直都在夜以继日地工作。

Even though these are technically children's magazines, they are perfect for learning English because they have high quality writing.Mental FlossPerfect if you like: interesting trivia（小知识）and facts.What you'll find inside: What does outer space smell like? Why isn't cat food mouse-flavored? If you're the kind of person who asks yourself these questions, you'll love Mental Floss. Each issue is full of bite-sized trivia and mostly short articles with really interesting facts that you'll want to share with others. While the print edition of the magazine stopped publishing in 2016, you can still read Mental Floss online. Click here to get more information.21.Which magazine tells something about business and companies？A.Digital Photographer．B.Fast Company．C.Cricket and Cicada．D.Mental Floss．22.How is Cricket and Cicada different fromthe other three？A.They focus on drawing skills．B.They can only be bought online．C.They are intended for teenagers．1D.They are full of colorful pictures．23.What is the best title of the passage?A.Fantastic Magazines for Learning E nglishB.Perfect Choices in Collecting I nformationC.Interesting Books Fall of IllustrationsD.Wonderful Facts about LiteratureBIf you are reading this, you were probably born in the 2000s. The oh-ohs. The 21st century. That would make you young, creative, connected, global, and no doubt smart. Maybe good-looking, too. Right? But what do other people think about your generation?Some adults worry that you’re more interested in the screen in front of you than the world around you. They think of you as the “face-down ge neration” because you use your phone so much and they wonder how you will deal with school, friends, and family. Are today’s teenagers too busy texting and taking selfies to become successful in real life—or “IRL”, as you wouldsay?Other adults worry that today’s youth are spoilt and don’t want to face the challenges of adult life. Many children born in the 1990s and 2000s were raised by “helicopter parents”, who were always there to guide and help their children with a busy schedule filled with homework and after- class activities such as dancing, drawing, or sports. With parents who do everything for them, today’s youth seem to prefer to live like teenagers even when they are in their 20s or 30s.With these taken into account, does the face down generation need a warning? Well, probably not. The fact is that many of today’s teenagers are better educated and more creative than past generations. They seem to be enthusiastic and willing to become leaders. More young people than ever volunteer to help their communities. There are also brave young people such as Malala Yousafzai, the teenager who won the 2014 Nobel Peace Prize for pushing girls’ rights to go to school.

Suddenly, it was difficult for me to accept that the roles were now changed—my mother became my child, and Ibecame her mother. I became impatient, argued with her, once I even yelled at her. Gradually, I was used to this kind of life. Now I am able to deal with her and the situation better. I have learned a lot of life lessons from the experience.My mother reacts very sensitively to my feelings. That is typical of Alzheimer’s patients. When I visit her, feeling busy and tense, she reacts immediately, takes on my mood, and becomes nervous and negative. But when I appear cheerful and attentive, she is happy. This has taught me to pay more attention to my own feelings when I am with other people.I always thought I was very tolerant, but in reality, my tolerance ran out as soon as someone turned away from what I considered “right”. With my mother I can now really be tolerant. Through her illness she has developed a childlike tactlessness(不得体). Eating out in restaurants, for example, is a bit embarrassing when she shouts at the waiter that the food is so bad or talks about people at the next table in a loud voice. Of course I make sure that my mother doesn’t hurt anyone, but I’ve stopped complaining about others and have become more tolerant.I have als o learned that everything has special value. When my mother got sick I didn’t want to burden my two daughters with it. They are young and have enough going on with their education, and starting their careers. I felt that it was simply my job as my mother’s daughter. The most wonderful discovery I’ve made through my mother’s disease may be that my children not only offer to help me when they sense that I’m feeling unbearabl e, but that they take care of my mother on their own actively. They visit her often, play cards with her, and look at photo albums together with her. It shows me that it’s all worth it.27.Which of the following is common behavior ofAlzheimer's patients?A Curiosity about everythingB Sensitivity to others' moodsC.Fear of strange peopleD.Quick reaction.28.The underlined word overwhelmed "in the last paragraph is closest in meaning toA. concernedB. scaredC. embarrassedD. stressed29.We can infer from the passage thatA.the writer accepted the role change immediatelyB.the writer only paid attention to her mother's feelingsC.The writer has a great sense of responsibilityD the daughters took over the responsibility to look after their grandmother30.This passage is mainly aboutA.how I cared for my sick motherB.how I became more tolerantC.what I have learned from my mother's illnessD.why I am feeling overwhelmedDWe lead very busy lives and we too easily forget how hard it was for us to focus on homework when we were in school. Now that we have jobs to do, food to buy and cook and other errands to run, even I sometimes think it would be a welcome change to have to sit down and quietly read and write with no distractions. But in case you don’t remember —— homework is pretty much everychild's least favorite thing to do. In the age of Netflix, Snapchat and wifi, the distractions are almost endless. It can sometimes almost be too hard to even keep up with all the new tech advances our kids are using, so how can we make sure that those advances take a back seat to our children's education? Here are some ideas.There's no point in stopping the reality that young people are going to focus on their phones and tablets instead of other things at times. Your best way is to accept, actually the tech sector continues to be the most profitable and fast-growing industries and that's unlikely to change fast. There are ways to use technology to help your kid do homework. Ask your teacher and school staff what apps and websites they’re using to teach lessons and supplements（补充）them with at-home activities as well.Even though technology has changed, the basics haven't. If you want to read, write and think properly, you need to have peace and quiet and the ability to focus, right? Well, your kids are just the same, Try and find a space in your home to enable your kids to do work away from televisions, the Internet or other distractions. Let me be clear: this shouldn't be a prison. I feel like I'm my most productive working alone in an office or at a busy cafe with my headphones on, Getting lost in other realities helps my creativity grow. Placing kids in isolation (独处) can often have a harmful effect and doesn't always equal being more productive.I feel like "getting engaged (参与) "is always a big part of my advice for parents on just about everything. How can you make sure your children are being successful if you have no idea what they're doing? How can you be sure they're doing it right if you don't know what is the correct answer? What do they need? You should be in touch with their teachers have a sense of where the lessons are going, what kinds of tasks are being given and what success looks like in the classroom, Knowing all of that is key to your child's success, especially when matched with some encouraging praise and helpful tips on how he can keep going. Thinking about how your child is best motivated (激励) by other things and using those methods here reasonably isn't a bad idea.And if by chance you’re having trouble solving that Math problems or understanding a sentence, don't fear —— you're not alone. Use the school staff, other parents and friends as your support. Better to seek help than do nothing.We all know that homework isn't exactly the most entertaining way anyone spends their time and sometimes we can't help but feel that since we left school, we're done with homework forever. But the circle of life plays out in all times and it's up to us to make sure that we pass on the lessons we've picked up and that while homework might seem dull. It's how we build skills, learn real lessons and get on the road to greatness. That greatness is on the inside, it's up to us as adults to enable the young people to bring it out. The key to achieving greatness is to take a lifelong learning.31.What is the author's attitude towards new tech?A.It affects parents’ everyday life.B.It should be kept out of children's reach.C.It can benefit student's education.D.It makes homework easier.32.Which of the following ideas might the author agree with?A.Homework should be made entertaining.B.Parents should know what motivates their children best.C.Students should do their homework independently.D.School staff should help parents on n ew tech.33.While parents get engaged in their children's homework, theyA.Must be better at all the lessons.B.Needn't make sure that their children are being successful.C.can teach their children by themselves.D.should know as much as possible about it.34.What can be inferred from the last paragraph?A.Children should achieve greatness on their own.B.Parents and their children should learn from each other.C.Children can hardly succeed without parents efforts.D.Parents can only obtain skills by helping their children.35.Which section of a magazine is this passage most probably taken from?cationB.HealthC.Technology.D.Science.第二节：七选五（共5 小题：每小题2.5 分，满分12.5 分阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。
