AThe Great Barn Adventure One morning when I was 11, I explored the town’s abandoned round grain barn（谷仓）. I found a chained sliding door that was wide enough for me to pass through.Inside, there was a heavy smell of dead mice in the dark. After my eyes adjusted, I noticed a shaft (升降机井) that rose all the way to the top of the barn. On one side was a one-man elevator with a long rope and roller.I stepped onto the platform and gave the rope a drag and the elevator began sliding up the shaft, but stopped halfway. After a brief panic attack, I noticed holes in the wall at regular intervals, forming a ladder. For reasons known only to an 11-year-old, I decided it would be better to go up than down. So, with shaking hands, I began climbing the wall.After what seemed like forever, I reached the top of the shaft.I stood up, dusted myself off and found absolutely nothing of interest. It was just an empty room with a ladder leading up to the roof. I climbed all the way up here for this? Then I noticed a fire extinguisher（灭火器）,which I’d always wanted to shoot off. So this was the chance of a lifetime. I tried it, and, much to my surprise, the thing worked! It shot out a thick cloud of powder that instantly filled the room. I couldn’t breathe. I was going to choke to death, and they’d probably never even find my body.Luckily, I remembered the ladder to the roof. I climbed up, popped the straw roof and saw a bright blue sky.I suddenly realized the dust and powder pouring out of the top could draw attention. So when the dust had settled, I climbed down and slipped out of the chained door. I’m not sure if I was more excited about being alive or about not being caught, butI ran all the way back home.21. When the author got inside the barn, he _______.A. noticed a man on the elevatorB. opened the chained sliding doorC. saw many dead mice in the darkD. found a shaft leading to the top22. Which of the following is the right order of the author’s adventure?a. The elevator stopped halfway.b. He entered the round grain barn.c. He climbed to the top of the shaft.d. He found a fire extinguisher and shot it off.A. b-a-c-dB. a-c-b-dC. c-a-d-bD. b-c-a-d23. After getting out of the chained door, the author might feel_______.A. inspiredB. relievedC. surprisedD. disappointed24.. From the passage, we can learn that the author was probablya boy full of _______.A. passionsB. dreamsC. curiosityD. imaginationB25. One of the purposes of a networking mixer held each year is to ________.A. provide students with greater control over the mediaB. link cultural information to recognizable plantsC. help the students to deal with most of the environment issuesD. help the students to be familiar with educational programs26.

Which of the Evening Workshops is most suitable for you?A. Botanical Film Making.B. Collections for Botany.C. Student Network.D. Society for Economic Botany.CThe extraordinary Eastgate Building in Harare, Zimbabwe’s capital city, is said to be the only one in the world to use the same cooling and heating principles as the termite mound(白蚁堆).Architect Mick Pearce used precisely the same strategy when designing the Eastgate Building, which has no air-conditioning and almost no heating. The building—the country’s largest commercial and shopping complex—uses less than 10% of the energy of a conventional building of its size. The Eastgate’s owners saved $3.5 million on a $36 million building because an air-conditioning equipment didn’t have to be imported.The complex is actually two buildings linked by bridges across a shady, glass-roofed atrium(天井) open to the air. Fans suck fresh air in from the atrium, blow it upstairs through hollow spaces under the floors and from there into each office through baseboard vents(通风口). As it rises and warms, it is drawn out via ceiling vents and finally exists through forty-eight brick chimneys.During summer’s cool nights, big fans blow air through the building seven times an hour to cool the empty floors. By day, smaller fans blow two changes of air an hour through the building, to circulate the air which has been in contact with the coolfloors. For winter days, there are small heaters in the vents.This is all possible only because Harare is 1600 feet above sea level, has cloudless skies, little dampness and rapid temperature changes—days as warm as 31℃ commonly drop to 14℃at night. “You couldn’t do this in New York, with its hot summers and cold winters,” Pearce said.The engineering firm of Ove Arup&Partners monitors daily temperatures. It is found that the temperature of the building has generally stayed between 23℃ and 25℃, with the exception of the annual hot period just before the summer rains in October and three days in November, when a doorkeeper accidentally switched off the fans at night. And the air is fresh—far more so than in air-conditioned buildings, where up to 30% of the air is recycled.28. Why was Eastgate cheaper to be built than a conventional building?A. It was designed in a smaller size.B. No air conditioners were fixed in.C. Its heating system was less advanced.D. It used rather different building materials.29. What does “it” refer to in Paragraph 3?A. Fresh air from outside.B. Heat in the building.C. Hollow space.D. Baseboard vent.30. Why would a building like Eastgate Not work efficiently in New York?A. New York has less clear skies as Harare.B. Its dampness affects the circulation of air.C. New York covers a larger area than Harare.D. Its temperature changes seasonally rather than daily.31. The data in the last paragraph suggests Eastgate’s temperature control system_____.A. allows a wide range of temperaturesB. functions well for most of the yearC. can recycle up to 30% of the airD. works better in hot seasonsDMen are spending more and more time in the kitchen encouraged by celebrity (名人) chefs like Gordon Ramsay and Jamie Oliver, according to a report from Oxford University.The effect of the celebrity role models, who have given cooking a more manly picture, has combined with a more general drive towards sexual equality and men now spend more than twicethe amount of time preparing meals than they did in 1961.According to the research by Prof. Jonatahn Gershuny, who runs the Centre for Time Research at Oxford, men now spend more than half an hour a day cooking, up from just 12 minutes a day in 1961.Prof. Gershuny said, “The man in the kitchen is part of a much wider social trend. There has been 40 years of sexual equality, but there is another 40 years probably to come.”Women, who a generation ago spent nearly two hours a day cooking, now spend just one hour and seven minutes—a great fall, but they still spend far more time in the kitchen than men.Some experts have named these men in aprons as “Gastrosexuals (men using cooking skills to impress friends)”, who have been inspired to pick up a kitchen knife by the success of Ramsay, Oliver as well as other male celebrity chefs such as Hugh Fearnley-Whittingstall, Marco Pierre White and Keith Floyd.“I was married in 1974. When my father came to visit me a few weeks later, I was wearing an apron when I opened the door. He laughed,” said Prof. Gershuny. “That would never happen now.”Two-thirds of adults say that they come together to shareat least three times a week, even if it is not necessarily around a kitchen or dining room table. Prof. Gershuny pointed out that the family meal was now rarely eaten by all of its members around a table—with many “family meals” in fact taken on the sofa in the sitting room, and shared by family members. “The family meal has changed a lot, and few of us eat—as I did when I was a child—at least two meals a day together as a family. But it has survived in a different format.”32. What is one reason behind the trend that men spend more time cooking than before?A. The improvement of cooks’ status.B. The influence of popular female chefs.C. The change of female’s view on cooking.D. The development of sexual equality campaign.33. What does the author think about the time men and women spend on cooking?A. Men spend more time cooking than women nowadays.B. Women spend much less time on cooking than before.C. It will take 40 years before men spend more time at the stove than women.D. There is a sharp decline in the time men spend on cookingcompared with 1961.34. How did Prof. Gershuny see the family meal according to the passage?A. It has become a thing of the past.B. It is very different from what it used to be.C. It shouldn’t be advocated in modern times.D. It is beneficial to the stability of the family.35. Which is the best title for the passage?A. The Changes of Family MealsB. Equality between Men and WomenC. Cooking into a New Trend for MenD. Cooking—a Thing of the Past for WomenE第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，共10分）根据短文内容，从短文后的七个选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

AYou may be familiar with the following famous people,but have you heard of their graduation speeches,in which they either share their unforgotten experiences or give you some great inspiration.●Michael Dell,University of Texas at AustinAnd now you've accomplished something great and important here,and it's time for you to move on to what's next.And you must not let anything prevent you from taking those first steps. ... You must also commit to the adventure.Just have faith in the skills and the knowledge you've been blessed with and go.●J.K.Rowling,Harvard UniversityHalf my lifetime ago,I was striking an uneasy balance between my ambition and the expectation from my parents who were not rich...But what I feared most for myself at your age was not poverty,but failure.The fact that you are graduating from Harvard suggests that you know little about failure,you might be driven by a fear of failure quite as much as a desire for success.●Steve Jobs,Stanford UniversitySometimes life's going to hit you in the head with a brick.Don't lose faith...Your work is going to fill a large part of your life,and the only way to be truly satisfied is to do what you believe is great work,and the only way to do great work is to love what you do.If you haven't found it yet,keep looking,and don't settle.●Bill Gates,Harvard UniversityWe need as many people as possible to have access to the advanced technology to lead to a revolution in what human beings can do for one another.They are making it possible not just for national governments,but for universities,smaller organizations,and even individuals to see problems,see approaches and deal with the world's inequities（不公平）like hunger,poverty,and so on.21.What Michael Dell said is to urge us to .A.listen to our heartB.pursue our dreamsC.follow others' exampleD.learn from our mistakes22.What did J.K.Rowling fear most when she was studying in university?A.Poverty.B.Hunger.C.Failure.D.Appearance.23.Who wants to express "Keep looking for what you believe in"?A.Michael Dell.B.J.K.Rowling.C.Bill Gates.D.Steve Jobs.24.What does Bill Gates suggest people do?A.Make contributions to the environment.B.Take responsibility for their own behavior.C.Make joint efforts to rid some global problems.D.Master as much advanced technology as possible.BMany people in high school cannot wait to go to college and leave their hometowns behind.Questions arise, though,when it comes to all of the decisions involved in choosing a college.One of the first considerations may be financial.State and public colleges are often the least expensive. Often, though,the better colleges are private and more expensive.It is sad when gifted students cannot attend a college of their choice just for financial reasons.Another major factor is location.Whether the college is in a small town or large city can have a major impact on its activities.A water lover probably will be more comfortable spending four years near an ocean or a lake.Those who cannot tolerate heat will probably be more comfortable at a northern college.School size also plays a major role in the decision process.If you want to get to know your teachers and avoid feeling like just a number,a small college is suitable.For those of you who consider yourself a "people person" and want a wide range of activities,a large college is more fitting.Your area of interest is another factor to consider in the decision-making process if you want to get the most from your education.The whole point of college is to learn what is of interest to you.Finally,one must take into consideration the colleges to which you can realistically be accepted.An Ivy League school for an average student would probably not be a good match.Similarly,an average school for an above-average student would not work well.The college should provide enough of a challenge for the student to work hard. Although there may not be the perfect college out there,there probably will be one that is close.Those who cannot find a suitable college are probably not looking hard enough.25.What's the main idea of the text?A.Procedures of choosing a college.B.Difficulties in attending a school.C.Pros and cons of going to college.D.Considerations in choosing a college.26.We can infer from the passage that .A.an Ivy League school is probably a state collegeB.a small college may bring you a sense of emptinessC.gifted students are likely to choose private collegesD.an average school isn't suitable for an average student27.A "people person" in Paragraph 4 probably refers to .A.a person who tends to be aloneB.a person who is good at socialityC.a person who is afraid of teachersD.a person who is accustomed to a noisy atmosphere28.What does the author think of choosing a college?A.A small college is a better choice for shy students.B.A northern college has a more comfortable climate.C.The location of a college is more important than the size of it.D.You will always find a suitable college if you look hard enough.CIn 2000,Suy Senglim met a French journalist who inspired in him an interest in photography.To put this new-found interest to good use,in 2012 he began to take pictures of Cambodia's vast variety of birdlife.Worried by the loss of biodiversity in his hometown of Mukh Kampul in Kandal province,Senglim created a photography project.He carefully documents each new species he photographs: the common name,scientific name,its identifying features,whether the species is endangered or not.Now the 35-year-old aims to educate Cambodians about the importance of bird species and the effect development has on nature.Senglim thinks the biggest issues are damage to habitat and illegal hunting.Through his photography work he has also discovered what makes the problem worse is that there is not enough education and law enforcement. Hunting is at the root of Cambodian cating Cambodians about the need for conservation is of great importance to Senglim."Education is very limited.And in terms of legal enforcement,only one institution is standing out,and that is Wildlife Alliance,which has conducted a string of successful crackdowns（镇压）so far. However,there are few major campaigns on wildlife hunting as a whole."Senglim is working on a book on 100 significant bird species from some of the 400 species he has so far photographed,which he hopes will be published in early 2018.He says he looks forward to teaching in high schools and colleges to inspire a new generation of nature-lovers."I think it's time to change the attitude,"he says.29.How did Senglim carry out his photography project?A.By taking more pictures in the wild.B.By improving his photography skills.C.By renewing his interest in loving life.D.By recording new birdlife he photographs.30.What is Senglim's discovery about the wildlife facing greater risks?A.Less development of the wasteland.ck of education and law enforcement.C.Small number of wildlife recorded in Cambodia.D.Fewer campaigns conducted by Wildlife Alliance.31.What does Senglim expect to do in future?A.Strengthen legal enforcement.B.Write more books about photography.C.Change people's attitude to bird species.D.Promote basic education in various schools.DEveryone needs to be safe,loved and to have a sense of belonging.These are inborn and natural basic needs.In an effort to have these needs satisfied,many of us tend to please others.And it works for a while.We find that we experience less conflict with others,but the conflict within ourselves grows.Saying "no" produces feeling of guilt and saying "yes" brings anger.My father was in the military,so we moved frequently.Being shy,I didn't make friends.What's more,I grew up in a household where grades,image and how others saw our family were very important.In our household a "C" was unacceptable,a "B" should have been an "A" and an "A" meant the lesson was too easy.I was too skinny,my sister was too fat and my brother's lips and ears were too big for his tiny head.To stop pleasing others is easier said than done.It's a long process,one in which I am consistently working to perfect.The turning point for me came shortly after I got married.The very first thing we did to end the cycle of catering to others was develop our own identity as individuals and then as a couple.And then we developed a strong set of core（核心）values and a vision for our future.The third and one of the most valuable things we did during this process was develop our own personal influence on others and we valued deeply the opinions of the wiser and more successful people around us.Besides,we should understand that sometimes helping people actually hurts them.Struggle is necessary to success.Struggle strengthens character,making people determined.So sometimes allowing people to struggle is the best thing you can do for them.32.How are we likely to feel when pleasing others?A.Satisfied.B.Angry.C.Happy. C.Guilty.33.What can we infer from the author's experience as a child?A.He grew up doing a lot of housework.B.It was hard for him to adjust to the moving life.C.He realized the value of opinions from others.D.His parents had great expectations of the children.34.What is the third paragraph mainly about?A.What steps the author took to go on pleasing others.B.How the author stepped out of the cycle of pleasing others.C.Why the author further developed his values and character.D.When the author turned to others for their valuable opinions.35.What does the author suggest doing?A.Helping others without delay.B.Refusing to help others.C.Thinking twice before offering help.D.Leaving someone alone in trouble.第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，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。

AA mechanical bicycle lock, like a U-lock, should be attached to a solid and immobile object like a rack（架子）to ensure safety. However, these racks are quite rare and popular, thus often occupied and although a bicycle lock prevents the bike from being carried away, as it fixes single parts like the frame or the wheels, other parts can be dismounted. Therefore an electronic system, consisting of several sensors, can extend the range of protection with only few components and less effort.The ‘RFID Bikealarm’ is a motion sensitive electronic alarm system that is attached to the rails of a bike saddle （座椅）. Featuring omnidirectional（全方位）movement sensing to detect tiny movements or speeding-up and a small whistle emitting >120dB alarm sound to scare off potential thieves by arousing attention.The internal microcontroller uses a complex computer program to distinguish between a serious theft and harmless shaking movement as it senses and adapts to the environment. The usage is quite simple: identify yourself by holding the RFID tag close to the case to lock or unlock the alarm system signaled by feedback sounds. The RFID-technology is predestined for achieving this simple and secure inte raction because it doesn’t require any complex system, interaction or other devices—just a small tag.The ‘RFID Bikcalarm’ is meant to be a useful add-on to mechanical bicycle locks as it massively extends the range of protection with few components. It is low-cost, durable and easy to use. The internal battery can be charged by USB.21. What does the underlined word “dismounted” in Paragraph 1 most probably mean?A. fixed upB. found outC. taken awayD. locked up22. Which of the following shows the right position of the RFID Bikealarm on a bicycle?A. B.C. D.23. What will happen when someone steals a bike with the RFID Bikealarm?A. Noises will be made.B. The bike will be locked.C. The thief will be identified.D. Messages will be sent to the owner.24. Which of the following is a feature of the RFID Bikealarm?A. It uses complex parts.B. It needs a rack to prevent bike theft.C. Its high price scares away its buyers.D. It works together with a mechanical lock.BYou c an’t walk into the office without Rihanna’s voice singing “work work work work work work” in your head. And that one line from Lady Gaga’s “Bad Romance” still makes you want to scream. These are commonly known as earworm songs—those sticky tunes that continue to play in your head. A recent study finds that more than 90% of adults report hearing earworm songs on a weekly basis.Fortunately, most people report earworm songs as pleasant. But others find them annoying or even maddening. “Some people are troubled by them to the point that it disturbs life,” says Elizabeth Hellmuth Margulis, a professor at the University of Arkansas who has studied earworm songs.Margulis says earworm songs tend to have some predictable characteristics. For one thing, they tend to small parts of a song—not the whole tr ack. And “the songs you’ve heard recently also have the most possibility to get stuck in your memory,” she says.But sometimes something strange and unpredictable can also start a track paying in your head. “Once I wa s at the doctor’s office and saw a poster of a man who I thought looked like Gaston—a character from Beauty and the Beast,” Margulis recalls. A couple minutes passed, and she realized she couldn’t get “Be Our Guest”, the song in the movie, out of her head, even though she hadn’t thought of the tune in years. In that instance, she was able to identify her earworm’s trigger: the Gaston-looking man in the poster. “But the connections can be really unclear,” she says.Margulis points out that, in all of human history, recorded music is a very new phenomenon. She says somehave inferred that earworm songs are also new—the unintended consequence of being able to hear the same song played everywhere in the same way over and over again. So far, the convincing explanation for why human beings experience earworm songs remains a mystery. But there are some well-established ways to cast off the earworm songs.“Finding a mentally demanding task and pu tting your mind on it usually shifts attention away from internal music. People tend to get earworms when performing tasks that don’t require their full attention—stuff like doing the dishes,” Margulis says.Chewing gum can also help. When a song is stuck in our heads, it’s almost like we’re singing along with it. If you make your mouth do something else—chewing gum, eating a meal or talking with a friend—that can kick out the earworm.You could also face your enemy. By listening to the full track that includes the passage stuck in your head, you may find “closure” and relief.25. Which of the following is most likely to be an earworm song?A. A song made up of simple words.B. A song heard frequently these days.C. A song sung by a most famous singer.D. A song learned during one’s childhood.26. What does the underlined word “trigger” in Paragraph 4 mean?A. Type.B. Tune.C. Cause.D. Characteristic.27. We can infer that earworm songs may ________.A. result from modern technologyB. be experienced over mealsC. help regain lost memoriesD. hurt one’s hearing28. What is mainly talked about in the last three paragraphs?A. Why we hear earworm songs.B. Where to find earworm songs.C. When we hear earworm songs.D. How to get over earworm songs.CThe philosopher Robert Nozick used the idea of a n “experience machine” to refute the view that good experiences are all we want from life. He thought that most of us would not choose the machine and prefer reality. “But why?” he encouraged us to ask.There was no such thing as virtual（虚拟的）reality (VR) when he was writing. But now we can give ourselves computer generated experiences that are like the real thing. The question raised by Nozick has become a real issue. Why should you prefer the trouble and expense of actually visiting Angkor Wat or Niagara Falls when you can getall the experiences of being there by putting on goggles and a body suit?One answer is that the emotions you feel when you have a virtual experience are not as valuable. When you actually see Niagara Falls, you feel awe and even fear in the face of an overpowering force of nature. Being in the presence of something that causes you these feelings is part of the pleasure.Visiting a virtual Niagara Falls may also cause you feelings of awe and fear but they are cheapened by your knowledge that the danger is not real and that your mind is being tricked into thinking that it is.Reality also holds a potential for making discoveries that virtual reality lacks. Those who visit Angkor Wat hope to see more than they expected from tourist information, perhaps even discover what have been missed. Computer simulations（模拟）, however good, contain only what have been put into them.There is a further reason for preferring a real experience. Real experiences connect us to the deeds of past people and place us in contexts where history was made. Viewing an actual paining by Rembrandt is a more valuable experience than viewing a copy, however good. The genuine painting was the work of the man himself. We see his brush strokes on the canvas. We are in the presence of genius.Virtual reality can take us to places we can never go. It can be exciting, amusing and a good way of spending leisure time. But it will be a substitute for connections with the real thing.29. What does the underlined word “refute” in P aragraph 1 mean?A. Contradict.B. Express.C. Prove.D. Correct.30. What does the author think of virtual reality?A. It can benefit people in certain aspects.B. It will be smart enough to satisfy our needs.C. It cannot cause feeling of fear or happiness.D. It cannot help us understand what has happened.31. Which of the following is the best title for the text?A. What VR Cannot Offer.B. How VR Change Our Life.C. How VR Is Different from Reality.D. Why VR Cannot Match the Real Thing.DA novel is a story transmitted from the novelist to the reader. It offers distraction and entertainment. But it can also be something more powerful—a way to learn about how to live. Just read at the rightmoment in your life, and a novel can change it.The Novel Cure is a reminder of that power. It is regarded as a grand display of literary fiction and acelebration of the possibilities of the novel. To create this apothecary（药房）, the authors have searched through two thousand years of literature for novels that effectively promote happiness, health, and sanity（神志清醒）, written by brilliant minds who knew what it meant to be human and wrote their life lessons into their fiction.The authors, Ella Berthoud and Susan Elderkin began giving novels to each other whenever one of them seemed in need of a push. In 2008 they set up a bibliotherapy service through a cultural enterprise, and since then have been prescribing books to customers all over the world.Bibliotherapy does not discriminate between pains of the body and pains of the head (or heart). Aware that you are not brave enough? Pick up To Kill a Mockingbird for an injection of courage. Experiencing a sudden fear of death? Read One Thousand Years of Solitude for some understanding on the larger cycle of life. Whatever your condition is, the treatment is simple: a novel (or two), to be read regularly. Some treatments will lead to a complete cure. Others will offer comfort, showing that you are not the first to experience these emotions. The Novel Cure is also filled with useful lists recommending the best novels to read when you are stuck in traffi c or can’t fall asleep, the most important novels to read throughout your life.Brilliant in concepts, The Novel Cure belongs on everyon e’s bo okshelf and in every medicine cabinet. It will make even the most well-read fiction lover pick up a nov el he’s never heard of, and see familiar ones with new eyes. Mostly.it will reaffirm literat ure’s ab ility to distract and transport, to resonate（共鸣）and reassure, to change the way we see the world and our place in it.32. What does the “power” in paragraph 2 refer to?A. The power of the novelist to transmit a story to the reader.B. The power of the novel to distract and entertain the reader.C. The power of the novel to create so many treatment for the reader.D. The power of the novel to tell us how to live and change our lives.33. According to the passage, what do you think is “Bibliotherapy”?A. A treatment that helps you to find the meaning of life.B. A method that makes you to resonate with the characters in the novel.C. A treatment that requires you to stay in the bookshop and to read many books.D. A method to address your physical or psychological problems by reading certain books.34. According to the passage, which of the following statements in TRUE about The Novel Cure?A. It is hard for bookworm to find the book appealing.B. Its authors must have scanned numerous literature works.C. All of the novels prescribed in it can offer you a complete cureD. It divides our pains into pains of the body and pains of the head.35.
