AOlivia Ries was just seven years old when she and her eight-year-old brother Carter adopted a cheetah(猎豹) in South Africa.“When my sister and I first learned back in 2009 that species like the cheetah may be extinct in the wild by the time we have kids, it scared us. We knew we had to do something to help them,” says Carter. “There are so many people(young and old alike) who just don’t know what is happening to so many species, just like we didn’t. Olivia and I want to make sure we reach as many people around the world as possible and help them to understand how serious the situation really is.”To do that, the kids started One More Generation (OMG), an organization with the motto: “Preserving endangered species for one more generation and beyond.”Now, ten years later, Olivia and Carter have traveled all over the world spreading their message. They’ve been interviewed on n ational television, participated in marches and fundraisersand won awards for their work. In 2015, they were invited to Vietnam by the United States Embassy to participate in a program to save rhinos. All that they’ve accomplished for animals and the environment is much too long to list!“Our number one message to everyone we meet is 'Remember, anyone can make a difference... if we can, you can too, ' ” says Olivia. “We want all people to understand that what Carter and I are doing is not necessarily something special; it is something that we all should be doing.

"Mailing her a handmade postcard."BMindy Scheier is on a mission to make fashionable clothing accessible to everyone. In 2014, she started the Runway of Dreams Foundation, a non-profit organization that helps bring adaptive clothing to disabled people.Scheier explained the inspiration behind her efforts. “My son, Oliver, was born with rigid spine muscular dystrophy,” she said. “His lack of strength created challenges with typical clothing. After spending years in the fashion industry, I decided that there was an opportunity to combine my fashion experience with my others.”Scheier began to create trendy clothing that her son could wear with ease. For example, she used magnets and elastics(松紧带) in place of buttons and zippers. Those adjustments have enabled Oliver to wear the same style as his friends do, even jeans.Scheier’s vision extends beyond just helping her own son. “I soon realiz ed that millions of disabled people were also struggling to access fashionable clothing that meets their needs,” she said. That was why she started the Runway of Dreams Foundation.On September 5, 2018, the foundation held its annual fashion show during New York Fashion Week. The event showcased the foundation’s new adaptive clothing. The show featured several disabled models, including Cole Gottlieb and Maddie Hostetter. Cole, a 9-year-old boy born with cerebral palsy, loves to play baseball and soccer. He was excited to participate in the fashion show. “It lets me be a role model to others,” he said. Maddie, aged 8, was born with only one full arm. “I heard about Runway of Dreams from my mom,” explained Maddie. “Even though I can button clothes with one a rm, the magnets have made it much easier for me.”Scheier—whose TED Talk was released in January 2018—credits her passion with the progress Runway of Dreams has made in the last few years. “Passion allows you to not take no for an answer,” she encourages.“It allows you to keep going when faced with challenges.”26. What motivated Scheier to start Runway of Dreams?A. Her fashion experience.B. Her talent for designing clothing.C. Her sympathy for the disabled.D. Her son’s special needs in clothing.27. What most features Runway of Dreams?A. It is a non-profit organization.B. It employs the disabled as models.C. It produces trendy clothing for the disabled.D. It decorates its clothing with buttons and zippers.28. Why does the author mention Cole and Maddie in Paragraph 5?A. To draw people’s attention to disabled models.B. To promote the foundation’s new adaptive clothing.C. To call on models to participate in the fashion show.D. To stress the influence of the foundation on the disabled.29. What can we infer from what Cole and Maddie said?A. They accepted the fact of being disabled.B. They were hopeful for their future.C. They were grateful to Runway of Dreams.D. They dreamed of being role models.30. What’s essential in the growth of the foundation according to Scheier?A. Dreams.B. Passion.C. Progress.D. Challenges.CWe’ve all been in a situation where we ask our friend to the restaurant for lunch and find ourselves waiting at a table alone. We look around the room, notice all the other customers dining with someone, and suddenly become insecure that we’re alone. Instead of starting a conversation with someone, we rush to grab our phones and stare at the screen until we are finally rescued by our late friend.Long gone are the days when we start a conversation with the person next to us while sitting on the subway during the morning or evening commute. However, small talk, as well as the willingness to engage in it, is very important.When humans engage in small talk, it actually provides a feeling of happiness. Those who socially interact are likely to increase their happiness and health, while others who shy away from social interaction are reported to feel disappointed and unhealthy, according to the Huffington Post.And small talk not only keeps us feeling happy and healthy, but teaches us how to stay calm in situations that we might not normally find ourselves in. Instead of feeling anxious and nervous, starting a conversation with people you don’t know helps calm the nerves and provides a feeling of inclusion. An unfamiliar event with people you don’t know suddenly becomes gratifying.But perhaps the most important reason why everyone should learn to engage in small talk is that it teaches us how to listen and truly form relationships. By asking a stranger some questions and showing interest in them, it helps establish new relationships, whether they are personal or business-related.You should learn how to connect with someone and identify with people you don't know. So next time you’re alone in a public place, try to reach out to others and start a conversation. It’s really not that hard.31. What does the writer intend to describe through Paragraph 1?A. Anxiety of being alone.B. Impatience with waiting for friends.C. Addiction to smart phones.D. Absence of communication between strangers.32. How many benefits of small talk are mentioned in the passage?A. Two.B. Three.C. Four.D. Five.33. Which does the writer think most valuable for taking small talk?A. Developing new relationships.B. Avoiding negative emotions.C. Having more people to turn to.D. Learning some social skills.34. Which word can replace the underlined one in Paragraph 4?A. T ypical.B. Peaceful.C.Enjoyable.D. Instructive.35. Which might be the best title?A. Let’s Start Small Talk.B. How to Make Friends.C. Drive Away Shyness.D. How to Start Small Talk.第二节(共5小题;每小题2.5分,满分12.5 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。

For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C or D. Choose the one that suits best according to the information given in the passage you have just read.AThey say there are three ways to experience the Grand Canyon; on foot, on mules(骡子) or by air. We chose the first. Up early; my husband and I and our three children couldn’t wait to get started. We decided to walk along a lovely path named Bright Angel Trail.As we set out, I was shocked at how narrow the path was. And I couldn’t help noticing that the other tourists weren’t like us. They had heavy backpacks, w ater bottles, and hats. But as usual we were dressed. As the sun rose higher, Arizona’s famous heat se emed to roast us. There was no shade and our legs were aching. We decided to go back, with the girl on my back and the boys far behind. By the time we finally got back, our legs were like jelly.The next day, after we’d had a long rest and a good breakfast, we were ready for another view of the Canyon – by air. After our last walk, this would be the easiest thing in the world.We called to each other excitedly as the plane took off and circled around the Canyon. But the smiles on our faces disappeared as the pilot tossed(翻转) the plane around, pretending he was going to hit the ground. I shouted, “STOP, TAKE US BACK!”When we finally arrived back on land, once again our legs were like jelly. We hardly spoke as we drove back.As I said, there are three ways to view the Grand Canyon. We never tried the mules, but personally I’d suggest a fourth buy yourself a good magazine like National Geographic. That way, you can see the Canyon, without fear or tiredness.66. Which of the following is true according to the second paragraph?A. They made a careful preparation before the tripB. They children were more joyful than their parents.C. Bright Angel Trail was not as lovely as they expected.D. The summer heat prevented them from enjoying the view.67.The underlined expression “Our legs were like jelly” probably means _____________. .A. we were weakB. we were unhappyC. we were dissatisfiedD. we were disappointed68. Which of the following best describes their Canyon trip by air?A. It proved to be frightening.B. It was more fortableC. It turned out to be excitingD. It made each of them tired.69. We can infer from the passage that ____________. .A. experiencing the Canyon on mules would be the best wayB. one needs to dress less when visiting the Grand Canyon.C. the writer was not serious when she made the suggestion.D. the whole family narrowly escaped from the air accident.BChina news, Beijing, Feb. 9 –Housing price in China has always aroused heated discussions among property developers and ordinary Chinese. To many property developers and local government officials, housing price in China is still low pared with many developed countries.However, the average housing price in the United States is only 8,000 yuan per square meter, while in China, it is even higher than in the United States. This shows that there are some bubbles in Chinese real estate market, the International Finance News reported.Although the average price of residential houses in the United States, after converted to Renminbi, is about 8,000 yuan per square meter, the houses in US are not sold in terms of building area, as most Chinese property developers do when they sell their houses. If US property developers sell their houses according to the building area, then the housing price will be even lower than 8,000 yuan per square meter. In most big Chinese cities, such as Beijing, Shanghai, and Shenzhen, houses are sold at a price even higher than those in the US.The high housing sales price in large cities in China proves that Chinese real estate market does have some bubbles. Moreover, Chinese houses can not be pared with houses in US in terms of building quality, environment and supporting facilities. Furthermore, it should be noted that American people’s average ine is several dozen times higher than that of Chinese people. How can the Chinese afford to buy a house which is even more expensive than that sold in US?At the beginning of xx, Chinese government issued a set of policies that aimed to benefit the public. Now in order to reduce the high housing prices, the government can regulate the real estate market by raising tax on property industry and controlling the release of loans and lands to property developers. At the same time, the government should allow people to build more houses through various fund-raising channels, such as funds collected from buyers or raised by working units. By applying these multiple means, it is expected that the high housing prices can be lowered.70. According to the passage, what is the average housing price per square meter in China?A. 8000 yuanB. 10000 yuanC. 7000 yuanD. It’s not mentioned here71. Which of the following does NOT support the idea that the average housingprice in China is even higher than in the United States?A. Chinese houses can not be pared with houses in US in terms of buildingquality, environment and supporting facilities.B. American people’s average ine is several dozen times higher than thatof Chinese people.C. The houses in US are not sold in terms of building area, as most Chineseproperty developers do when they sell their houses.D. There are more people who need houses in China.72. What is the main idea of this passage?A. The housing price in China is so high that the government should dosomething useful to prevent it.B. There are some bubbles in Chinese real estate market.C. The average housing price in China is even higher than in the United States.D. Chinese government issued a set of policies that aimed to benefit the public.73. How many measures are mentioned in the last paragraph in order to reduce the high housing prices?A. FourB. ThreeC. FiveD. TwoCSome futurologists have assumed that the vast increase of women in the workforce may portend (预示) a rejection of marriage. Many women, according to this hypothesis, would rather work than marry. The opposite of this concern is that the prospects of being a multi-paycheckhousehold could encourage marriage. In the past, only the earnings and financial prospects of the man counted in the marriage decision. Now, however, the earning ability of a woman can make her more attractive as a marriage partner. Data show that economic downturns tend to put off marriage because the parties cannot afford to establish a family or are concerned about rainy days ahead. As the economy es to life, the number of marriages also rises.The increase in divorce rates follows to the increase in women working outside the home. Yet, it may be wrong to jump to any simple cause-and-effect conclusions. The imp act of a wife’s work on divorce is no less cloudy than its impact on marriage decisions. The realization that she can be a good provider may increase the chances that a working wife will choose divorce over an unsatisfactory marriage. But the reverse is equally plausible(似是而非的). Tensions grounded in financial problems often play a key role i n ending a marriage. By raising a family’s standard of living, a working wife may strengthen her family’s financial and emotional stability.Psychological factors also should be considered. For example, a wife blocked from a career outside the home may feel caged in the house. She may view her only choice as seeking a divorce. On the other hand, if she can find fulfillment through work outside the home, work and marriage can go together to create a stronger and more stable union.Also, a major part of women’s inequality in marriage has been due to the fact that, in most cases, men have remained the main breadwinners. A working wife may rob a husband of being the master of the house. Depending upon how the couple reacts to these new conditions, it could create a stronger equal partnership or it could create new insecurities.74. It is said in the passage that when the economy slides_____.A. men would choose working women as their marriage partnersB. more women would get married to seek financial securityC. even working women would worry about their marriagesD. more people would prefer to remain single for the time being75. If women find fulfillment through work outside the home,_____.A. they are more likely to dominate their marriage partnersB. their husbands are expected to do more houseworkC. their marriage ties can be strengthenedD. they tend to put their career before marriage76. One reason why women with no career may seek a divorce is that_____.A. they feel that they have been robbed of their freedomB. they are afraid of being bossed around by their husbandsC. they feel that their partners fail to live up to their expectationsD. they tend to suspect their husbands’ loyalty to their marriage77. Which of the following statements can best summarize the authors’ view in the passage?A. The stability of marriage and the divorce rate may reflect the economic situation of the country.B. Even when economically independent, most women have to struggle forreal equality in marriage.C. In order to secure their marriage women should work outside the home andremain independentD. The impact of the growing female workforce on marriage varies from case to case.Section DDirections Read the passage carefully. Then answer the questions or plete the statements in thefewest possible words. ( no more than 10 words)When asked to point out one or two things that are most important to themselves, many put friends ahead of homes, jobs, cloth and cars.A true friendship carries a long history of experience that determines who we are and keeps us connected. It is a treasure we should protect. Unfortunately, the better friends you are, the more probably you’ll have disagreements. And the result can be what you don’t wan t —an end to the relationship.The good news is that most troubled friendships can be mended. First, don’t let your pride get in your way. Most of us can forgive each other when differences are brought out in the open. Second, apologize when you’re wrong –even if you’ve been wronged. Over the course of a friendship, even the best people make mistakes. Sometimes, it may be best if the wronged person takes the lead and apologizes. When you apologize, give your friend a chance to admit that he has been wrong. Third, see things from your friend’s point of view. And finally, accept that friendships change as our needs and lifestyle change. Making friends can sometimes seem easy. The hard part is keeping the connections strong during the natural ups and downs that have an effect on all relationships. My suggestion Consider friendship an honor and a gift, and worth the effort to treasure and nurture.78. What is likely to happen if you have disagreements with your friends?79. The author wrote the article mainly to tell us .80. The underlined word nurture probably means ________________.81. What causes the change of friendships?第II卷(共47分)I. Translation(22分)Directions Translate the following sentences into English. You are required to use the word given in the bracket for each respective sentence.1.他写信投诉那家工厂发出的噪音。

Olivia Ries was just seven years old when she and her eight﹣year﹣old brother Carter adopted a cheetah(猎豹) in South Africa."When my sister and I first learned back in 2009 that species like the cheetah may be extinct in the wild by the time we have kids, it scared us. We knew we had to do something to help them, " says Carter. "There are so many people (young and old alike) who just don't know what is happening to so many species, just like we didn't. Olivia and I want to make sure we reach as many people around the world as possible and help them to understand how serious the situation really is."To do ________, the kids started One More Generation (OMG), an organization with the motto: ''Preserving endangered species for one more generation and beyond."Now, ten years later, Olivia and Carter have traveled all over the world spreading their message. They've been interviewed on national television, participated in marches and fundraisers and won awards for their work. In 2015, they were invited to Vietnam by the United States Embassy to participate in a program to save rhinos. All that they've accomplished for animals and the environment is much too long to list!"Our number one message to everyone we meet is 'Remember, anyone can make a difference…if we can, you can too, '' says Olivia. ''We want all people to understand that what Carter and I are doing is not necessarily something special; it is something that we all should be doing. You can start small by simply adopting an animal. Do some research on the species you are interested in, and find a good organization offering adoptions. My brother and I take our birthday money and allowance money and adopt animals all the time."(1)How did Olivia and Carter feel when learning cheetahs faced extinction?________A Angry and guilty.B Shocked and concerned.C Anxious andhelpless. D Hopeful and determined..(2)What does the underlined "that" refer to in Paragraph 3?________A Helping endangered species survive.B Telling people the situation cheetahs face.C Making the situation of dying species known.D Calling on people to adopt endangered species..(3)What does Paragraph 4 mainly tell about Olivia and Carter?________A They organized activities to raise money.B They took measures to save rhinos.C They made efforts to list extinct species.D They contributed a lot to dying species..(4)What do Olivia's words suggest?________A Anyone can help by starting small.B Anyone can do somethingspecial.

Mindy Scheier is on a mission to make fashionable clothing accessible to everyone. In 2014 she started the Runway of Dreams Foundation, a non﹣profit organization that helps bring adaptive clothing to disabled people.Scheier explained the inspiration behind her efforts. "My son, Oliver, was born with rigid spine muscular dystrophy, " she said. "His lack of strength created challenges with typical clothing. After spending years in the fashion industry, I decided that there was an opportunity to combine my fashion experience with my others."Scheier began to create trendy clothing that her son could wear with ease. For example, she used magnets and elastics(松紧带) in place of buttons and zippers. Those adjustments have enabled Oliver to wear the same style as his friends do, even jeans.Scheier's vision extends beyond just helping her own son."I soon realized that millions of disabled people were also struggling to access fashionable clothing that meets their needs, " she said. That was why she started the Runway of Dreams Foundation.On September 5, 2018, the foundation held its annual fashion show during New York Fashion Week. The event showcased the foundation's new adaptive clothing. The show featured several disabled models, including Cole Gottlieb and Maddie Hostetter. Cole, a 9﹣year﹣old boy born with cerebral palsy, loves to play baseball and soccer. He was excited to participate in the fashion show."It lets me be a role model to others, " he said. Maddie, aged 8, was born with only one full arm."I heard about Runway of Dreams from my mom, " explained Maddie. ''Even though I can button clothes with one arm, the magnets have made it much easier for me."Scheier﹣whose TED Talk was released in January 2018﹣credits her passion with the progress Runway of Dreams has made in the last few years."Passion allows you to not take no for an answer, " she encourages."It allows you to keep going when faced with challenges."(1)What motivated Scheier to start Runway of Dreams?________A Her fashion experience.B Her talent for designing clothing.C Her sympathy for the disabled.D Her son's special needs in clothing..(2)What most features Runway of Dreams?________A It is a non﹣profit organization.B It employs the disabled as models.C It produces trendy clothing for the disabled.D It decorates its clothing with buttons and zippers..(3)Why does the author mention Cole and Maddie in Paragraph 5?________A To draw people's attention to disabled models.B To promote the foundation's newadaptive clothing. C To call on models to participate in the fashion show. D To stress the influence of the foundation on the disabled..(4)What can we infer from what Cole and Maddie said?________A They accepted the fact of being disabled.B They were hopeful for their future.C They were grateful to Runway of Dreams.D They dreamed of being role models..(5)What's essential in the growth of the foundation according to Scheier?________A Dreams.B Passion.C Progress.D Challenges.3. We've all been in a situation where we ask our friend to the restaurant for lunch and find ourselves waiting at a table alone. We look around the room, notice all the other customers dining with someone, and suddenly become insecure that we're alone. Instead of starting a conversation with someone, we rush to grab our phones and stare at the screen until we are finally rescued by our late friend.Long gone are the days when we start a conversation with the person next to us while sitting on the subway during the morning or evening commute. However, small talk, as well as the willingness to engage in it, is very important.When humans engage in small talk, it actually provides a feeling of happiness. Those who socially interact are likely to increase their happiness and health, while others who shy away from social interaction are reported to feel disappointed and unhealthy, according to the Huffington Post. And small talk not only keeps us feeling happy and healthy, but teaches us how to stay calm in situations that we might not normally find ourselvesin. Instead of feeling anxious and nervous, starting a conversation with people you don't know helps calm the nerves and provides a feeling of inclusion. An unfamiliar event with people you don't know suddenly becomes ________.But perhaps the most important reason why everyone should learn to engage in small talk is that it teaches us how to listen and truly form relationships. By asking a stranger some questions and showing interest in them, it helps establish new relationships, whether they are personal or business﹣related.You should learn how to connect with someone and identify with people you don't know. So next time you're alone in a public place, try to reach out to others and start a conversation. It's really not that hard.(1)What does the writer intend to describe through Paragraph 1?________A Anxiety of being alone.B Impatience with waiting for friends.C Addiction to smart phones.D Absence of communication between strangers..(2)How many benefits of small talk are mentioned in the passage?________A Two.B Three.C Four.D Five..(3)Which does the writer think most valuable for taking small talk?________A Developing new relationships.B Avoiding negative emotions.C Having more people to turn to.D Learning some social skills..(4)Which word can replace the underlined one in Paragraph 4?________A Typical.B Peaceful.C Enjoyable.D Instructive..(5)Which might be the best title?________A Let's Start Small Talk.B How to Make Friends.C Drive AwayShyness. D How to Start Small Talk.第二节(共 5 小题;每小题 2.5 分,满分 12.5 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.4. Just thinking about your favorite food probably makes you hungry, right? Food provides us with the energy we need to live.(1)_______ For some people, food is a toolto deal with emotional problems. However, you may overeat when you're feeling stressed,sad or worried, which will do harm to your health.Have you ever wondered why you reach for food when you're feeling down?(2)_______ They include cultural rules and mental problems. Many people overeat when they are trying to deal with feelings.(3)_______ After a while, though, overeating may lead to feelings of regret.
