I was able to buy it a little over a year ago because I had my relatives give me money for my birthday instead of a lot of clothes that wouldn’t fit. I let a salesclerk fool me into buying a discontinued model. I realized this a day later, when I saw newspaper advertisements for the set at seventy-five dollars less than I had paid. The set worked so beautifully when I first got it home that I would keep it on until stations signed off for the night. Fortunately, I didn’t get any channels showing all-night movies or I would never have gotten to bed. Then I started developing a problem with the set that involved static(静电) noise. For some reason, when certain shows switched into a commercial, a loud noise would sound for a few seconds. Gradually, this noise began to appear during a show, and to get rid of it, I had to change to another channel and then change it back. Sometimes this technique would not work, and I had to pick up the set and shake it to remove the sound. I actually began to build up my arm muscles （肌肉）shaking my set. When neither of these methods removed the static noise, I would sit helplessly and wait for the noise to go away. At last I ended up hitting the set with my fist, and it stopped working altogether. My trip to the repair shop cost me ￡62, and the set is working well now, but I keep expecting more trouble. 21.Why did the author say he was fooled into buying the TV set? A. He got an older model than he had expected. B. He couldn’t return it when it was broken C. He could have bought it at a lower price D. He failed to find any movie shows on it.

2018-2019学年宁夏银川一中高一（上）期末英语试卷一、阅读理解（本大题共15小题，共30.0分）AWhen I was growing up，Mother's Day was as important as Christmas．The energy around the house was always positive（积极的），mostly thanks to my father who made sure that his kids appreciated their mother，We would clean the house，and Mum got breakfast in bed in the morning and didn't have to lift a finger all day．And in the evening，we went to a restaurant for a traditional Mother's Day dinner．What I learned from my father over the years，was that no matter what，he always put my mother before himself．He absolutely loved her and never let her forget that．And from my parents，I learned a thing or two about how to love．I maintain（保持）my father's Mother's Day tradition with my wife．Growing up，I learned that showing affection to the woman you love or who gave birth to you is an important part of life．You see，it goes both ways，and the love you have for your mother comes back to you again and again．Believing that and feeling it when you can may keep you from being lonely，even if your mum isn't close by or has passed away．There are a number of us who no longer have a mother in our lives，and truth be told，there are often times when I wish my mum were still here to comfort me．So instead，I remember the times she did just that．It makes me smile，and somehow，those memories of a more simple and loving life give me the comfort I'm looking for．My wife's mother is still around，however，and it's great to have that "mother energy" in my life still．Having this relationship with my mother-in-law is nice because it gives me someone to be there for on Mother's Day，and any other day of the year．If you are mum-less，you too should find a deserving woman in your life and celebrate Mother's Day with her．If you don't know anyone，there are plenty of lonely mums in rest homes who would enjoy your company for a couple of hours．The visit will make both of your days，and perhaps your lives，a little bit better．1.What did the author （作者）learn from his father？______A. It's necessary to express love to those we love．B. We should always put others before ourselvesC. It's important to have an interesting family tradition．D. Mother's Day is just as important as Christmas．2.Why does the author value the idea of showing love for one's mother？______A. It can set a good example for kids to follow．B. It is what mothers expect their children to do．C. It can warm your mother's heart as well as yours．D. It's important to follow your father's rules．3.What is the author's advice to someone whose mum has passed away？______A. Give all your attention to your mother-in-law．B. Try to get used to life without a mum．C. Turn to other family members for love．D. Visit lonely mums in rest homes on Mother's Day．【答案】【小题1】A 【小题2】C 【小题3】D【解析】1-3 ACD1．A．细节理解题．根据第二段"The energy around the house was always positive，mostly thanks to my father who made sure that his kids appreciated their mother，We would clean the house，and Mum got breakfast in bed in the morning and didn't have to lift a finger all day．家里的气氛总是积极的，这主要要感谢我的父亲，他确保他的孩子们感激他们的母亲，我们会打扫房间，妈妈早上在床上吃早餐，一整天都不用动一动手指"．可知作者从父亲身上学到向我们所爱的人表达爱是必要的．故选A．2．C．细节理解题．根据第四段"I learned that showing affection to the woman you love or who gave birth to you is an important part of life．You see，it goes both ways，and the love you have for your mother comes back to you again and again．我明白了对你爱的女人或者生你的女人表达爱意是生活中很重要的一部分．你看，这是双向的，你对母亲的爱会一次又一次地回到你身边．"．可知作者重视对母亲表达爱的想法是因为它能温暖你和你妈妈的心．故选C．3．D．推理判断题．根据最后一段"If you don't know anyone，there are plenty of lonely mums in rest homes who would enjoy your company for a couple of hours．The visit will make both of your days，and perhaps your lives，a little bit better．如果你一个人都不认识，那么在养老院有很多孤独的妈妈，她们会很享受和你在一起的几个小时．这次访问将使你们的日子，也许还有你们的生活，好一点"．可知作者对母亲去世的人的建议是在母亲节那天去敬老院看望孤独的妈妈们．故选D．本文是一篇科教类阅读，文章主要介绍了在我的成长过程中，母亲节和圣诞节一样重要．此题主要考查学生的细节理解和推理判断能力．做细节理解题时一定要找到文章中的原句，和题干进行比较，再做出正确选择．在做推理判断题时不要以个人的主观想象代替文章的事实，要根据文章事实进行合乎逻辑的推理判断．B4-Day Classic Beijing Tour The 4-day classic Beijing tour is designed for tourists who come to visit China for the first time．It covers the most popular and typical places in Beijing，fully displaying the scenery，culture，history，local lifestyles and features，food and drinks，business，etc．for you．Day 1：Arrival in BeijingYour guide meets you at Capital Airport，and helps you check in at your hotel．Enjoy Beijing Duck as welcome dinner．Accommodation：Beijing downtownDay 2：The Great Wall & the Summer PalaceStart your day at the most famous part of the Great Wall，the Badaling Great Wall．Leave the downtown for the Great Wall at 8am．Since it is a long drive to the Great Wall （about 2 hours' riding）have a break at the Jade Museum on the way．Lunch will be enjoyed in a local restaurant．In the early afternoon come back to the city and have a sightseeing tour of the Summer Palace．Recommended Activity：Beijing Opera Show （Liyuan Theatre，19：30-21：10 every evening）Accommodation：Beijing downtownDay 3：Beijing city sightseeing & Local experienceYour guide meets you at the hotel at 8 am and set out for the day's touring：Tian'anmen Square and the Forbidden City．After visiting the two sites，have a break and get ready for lunch．Hutong visit：see some traditional arts of the old Beijing，such as paper cutting and kite making，and visit a local family．Accommodation：Beijing downtownDay 4：Beijing Olympic sitesVisit the Olympic sites：Bird's Nest，Water Cube and Olympic Park，witnessing the fast developing modern China．Enjoy some free time after visiting the sites．After lunch，it is shopping time and then the tour is over．4.This advertisement is aimed at ______ ．A. foreigners who are new to ChinaB. experts who study history and citiesC. kids who were born in other citiesD. people who are interested in touring5.If a tourist wants to enjoy Beijing Opera，he should ______ ．A. go to Liyuan Theatre in the eveningB. visit the Summer Palace on the first dayC. go sightseeing in Beijing HutongD. live and eat downtown in Beijing6.On which day can tourists enjoy the city's traditional arts and local lifestyle？______ ．A.

visit：see some traditional arts of the old Beijing，such as paper cutting and kite making，and visit a local family．"（胡同之旅：看一些老北京的传统艺术，例如剪纸和风筝制作；参观一户当地家庭）可知本题答案为B选项．44题答案：C 考查逻辑推理，一份广告的内容再好，但是如果连起码的联系方式都没有，那也等于"纸上谈兵"；故本题答案为C选项"联系信息"．本文是一篇广告布告类阅读，主要介绍了一个针对第一次来中国旅游的外国游客的"经典北京4日游"旅游项目．本文是一篇广告布告类阅读，题目涉及多道细节理解题，做题时结合原文和题目有针对性找出相关语句进行仔细分析，结合选项选出正确答案．推理判断也是要在抓住关键句子的基础上合理的分析才能得出正确的答案．CIn the near future，daily newspapers and monthly magazines will probably disappear．Electronic media（媒体）can provide the same information faster andcheaper．The Internet，together with laptops and mobile phones，makes it possible that almost everyone can at any time and in almost any place get some news for free or for few fees．You'll browse the computer newspapers or magazines just like turning on TV．An electronic voice will tell you stories about the latest events．You'll even get to choose the kind of voice you want to hear．Want more information on the brief story？A simple touch makes the whole text appear．There are the predictions from the experts working on the newspapers of the future．Imagined as part of home media and entertainment systems，computer newspapers and magazines would unite printed and broadcast news，offering information and analyzing video images of news events．The continuing loss of readers will lead to a small number of advertisements in newspapers．It makes no sense to spend millions of dollars to print ads．With the development of technology，more and more electronic media have been created until now，but replacing the traditional newspapers and magazines has a long way to go，because the resistance to computer newspapers and magazines from journalism（新闻业）may be much stronger．Since it is such a cultural change，it may be not until the present journalists（新闻工作者），who aren't used to it，die off that the newspaper industry is not considered as an industry any longer．Anyway，technology is making the traditional newspapers and magazines disappear gradually．puter newspapers and magazines have all the advantages EXCEPT that ______ ．A. you can choose the kind of voice you like to hear．B. they are more expensive than traditional newspapers．C. you can get more information from them easily．D. you can easily store information for the future use．9.The underlined word "resistance" in the fifth paragraph probably means ______ ．A. a thought which directs your actionB. an idea which is different from othersC. a force that helps you do somethingD. a force that acts to stop something happening10.We can infer from the passage that ______ ．A. new things will replace the old ones in the future．B. traditional newspapers and magazines will disappear soon．C. all technological developments are very important．D. traditional newspapers and magazines will be more popular．11.The author writes the article to ______ ．A. tell readers what newspapers and magazines are like in the futureB. let people know the great development of the journalismC. prove newspapers and magazines are not welcomed any moreD. say traditional newspapers and magazines are better than before【答案】【小题1】B 【小题2】D 【小题3】A 【小题4】B【解析】答案：1-4BDAB1．B．细节理解题．根据第一段The Internet，together with laptops and mobile phones，makes it possible that almost everyone can at any time and in almost any place get some news for free or for few fees．可知互联网，连同笔记本电脑和手机，使得几乎每个人都有可能在任何时候、任何地方都能提供同样的信息获得一些免费或少量的新闻．由此可见，they are more expensive than traditional newspapers是错误的，故选B．2．D．词句猜测题．根据最后一段With the development of technology，more and more electronic media have been created until now，but replacing the traditional newspapers and magazines has a long way to go，because the resistance to computer newspapers and magazines from journalism（新闻业）may be much stronger．可知随着技术的发展，到目前为止，越来越多的电子媒体被创造出来，但是取代传统的报纸和杂志还有很长的路要走，因为新闻对计算机报纸和杂志的抵制可能要强烈得多．由此可见，a force that acts to stop something happening意义为：抵制，故选D．3．A．推理判断题．根据最后一段Anyway，technology is making the traditional newspapers and magazines disappear gradually．可知无论如何，技术正在使传统的报纸和杂志逐渐消失．由此可见，新的东西将来会取代旧的，故选A．4．B．推理判断题．根据整篇文章可知，本文主要讲述了随着科技的发展，传统的报刊杂志在逐渐的退出历史舞台，电子报刊媒体正在迅速发展，但是要取代传统报刊杂志还有很长的路要走．由此可见，let people know the great development of the journalism让人们知道新闻事业的伟大发展，符合题意，故选B．本文主要讲述了随着科技的发展，传统的报刊杂志在逐渐的退出历史舞台，电子报刊媒体正在迅速发展，但是要取代传统报刊杂志还有很长的路要走．阅读理解考察学生的细节理解和推理判断能力，做细节理解题时一定要找到文章中的原句，和题干进行比较，再做出正确的选择．在做推理判断题不要以个人的主观想象代替文章的事实，要根据文章事实进行合乎逻辑的推理判断DKentucky Fried Chicken has filed a lawsuit（提起诉讼）against three companies in China，because their social media accounts spread false information about its food，including that its chickens have eight legs．The case comes as the Beijing government holds an activity to clean up rumours （谣言）on social media（媒体）．Internet marketers have been accused （指控）of trying to control online opinions of their customers by posting false information about their competitors．In an announcement posted on its Chinese website，KFC said one of the best-known false rumours was that chickens used by the company have six wings and eight legs．It is requesting 1.5 million yuan and an official apology from each of three companies．It is also asking for an immediate stop to their activities to hurt it by spreading rumours．The fried chicken chain is China's biggest restaurant operator and is a kind of fast food for young people in China．It has more than 4，600 restaurants in the country，and on average，opens a new branch every day．KFC'S China chief executive officer（行政长官），Qu Cuirong，said that it is difficult for companies to protect their brands（品牌）against rumours because it is hard for them to collect evidence．She added，"The efforts by the government in recent years to purify（净化）the online environment have offered us much more confidence．"The companies are Shanxi Weilukuang Technology Company，Taiyuan Zero Point Technology Company and Yingchenanzhi Success and Culture Communication in Shenzhen，south-east China．Calls to numbers listed for the companies either rang unanswered or were not available．In

On a fashion websiteB. In a food magazine．C. On an official posterD. In a newspaper．【答案】【小题1】B 【小题2】C 【小题3】B 【小题4】D【解析】1．B．细节理解题．根据第一段的Kentucky Fried Chicken has filed a lawsuit（提起诉讼） against three companies in China， because their social media accounts spread false inf ormation about its food， including that its chickens have eight legs．可知，肯德基之所以对三家中国公司提起诉讼，是因为他们散布了有关肯德基的不真实信息．故选B．2．C．细节理解题．根据第二段的句子 It is requesting 1.5million yuan and an official apology from each of three companies．可知，肯德基要求一大笔钱和道歉．故选C．3．B．推理判断题．根据最后一段的句子Calls to numbers listed for the companies either rang unanswered or were not available．可知，三家公司中没有人接电话．故选B．4．D．文章出处题．根据最后一段的可知，这篇文章是新闻报道，报道了肯德基对三家中国公司提起诉讼的事情．故选D．这篇文章是新闻报道，报道了肯德基对三家中国公司提起诉讼的事情．阅读理解考察学生的细节理解和推理判断能力，做细节理解题时一定要找到文章中的原句，和题干进行比较，再做出正确的选择．在做推理判断题不要以个人的主观想象代替文章的事实，要根据文章事实进行合乎逻辑的推理判断．二、阅读七选五（本大题共5小题，共10.0分）You cannot choose your child's friends for him，but you can help him learn to choose friends wisely．(1) Here are a few ways to help your child make friends．•Build your child's selfconfidence．When he succeeds or has made a great choice，tell him you're proud of him．(2) Your middle school student is going through many changes and may feel like he isn't"good enough"．Building his selfconfidence will help him feel more confident and will make it easier for him to form healthy friendships．• (3)Give him your full attention when he talks，and really listen to what he has to say．•Discuss the qualities in a friend with your child．Discuss with your child the qualities that matter most，such as being reliable and kind，andmaking good choices when it comes to avoiding alcohol and tobacco．•Get to know your child's friends．(4) It's more important to talk with them and find out what they like to do．Allow your child to invite his friends over and get to know them better．• (5)Afterschool clubs and sports programs are good places for meeting new people．Be open to exploring different activities with your child to find something that he enjoys．A．Friends are very important for us．B．Introduce your child to new groups of people．C．Talk with your child every day and listen to his concerns．D．Try not to judge your child's friends based on how they dress．E．When he does not succeed，help him feel better and keep trying．F．You can teach him ways to find friends who will have a positive influence on him．G．There are many types of friends and we should be careful when making our choices．16.

Egypt Woodbury, NY 11797.BWhen her five daughters were young, Helene An always told them that there was strength in unity. To show this, she held up one chopstick, representing one person. Then she easily broke it into two pieces. Next, she tied several chopsticks together, representing a family. She showed the girls it was hard to break the tied chopsticks. This lesson about family unity stayed with the daughters as they grew up.Helene An and her family own a large restaurant business in California. However, when Helene and her husband Danny left their home in Vietnam in 1975，they didn't have much money. They moved their family to San Francisco. There they joined Danny's mother, Diana, who owned a small Italian sandwich shop. Soon afterwards,Helene and Diana changed the sandwich shop into a small Vietnamese restaurant. The five daughters helped in the restaurant when they were young. However,Helene did not want her daughters to always work in the family business because she thought it was too hard.Finally the girls all graduated from college and went away to work for themselves,but one by one,the daughters returned to work in the family business. They opened new restaurants in San Francisco and Los Angeles. Even though family members sometimes disagreed with each other,they worked together to make the business successful. Daughter Elizabeth explains. "Our mother taught us that to succeed we must have unity,and to have unity we must have peace. Without the strength of the family, there is no business."Their expanding business became a large corporation（企业）in 1996，with three generations of An working together. Now the Ans' corporation makes more than ＄20 million each year. Although they began with a small restaurant, they had big dreams, and they worked together. Now they are a big success.11.Helene tied several chopsticks together to show ______ .A. the difficulty of growing upB. the strength of family unityC. the advantage of chopsticksD. the best way of giving a lesson12.We can learn from Paragraph 2 that the An family ______ .A. started a business in 1975B. bought a restaurant in San FranciscoC. left Vietnam without much moneyD. opened a sandwich shop in Los Angeles13.What can we infer about the An's daughters？______A. They were influenced by what Helene taught them.B. They could not bear to work in the family business.C. They did not finish their college education.D. They were troubled by disagreement among family members.14.Which of the following can be the best title for the passage？______A. How to Run a CorporationB. Strength Comes from PeaceC. Family Unity Builds SuccessD. How to Achieve a Big DreamCA new study shows students who write notes by hand during lectures perform better on exams than those who use laptops.Students are increasingly using laptops for note-taking because of speed and legibility（清晰度）.But the research has found laptop users are less able to remember and apply the concepts （观念）they have been taught.Researchers performed experiments that aimed to find out whether using a laptop increased the tendency to make notes "mindlessly" by taking down word for word what the professors said. In the first experiment, students were given either a laptop or pen and paper. They listened to the same lectures and were told to use their usual note-taking skills. Thirty minutes after the talk,they were examined on their ability to remember facts and on how well they understood concepts.The researchers found that laptop users took twice as many notes as those who wrote by hand. However,the typists performed worse at remembering and applying the concepts. Both groups scored similarly when it came to memorizing facts.The researchers' report said,"While more notes are beneficial,if the notes are taken mindlessly,as is more likely the case on a laptop, the benefit disappears."In another experiment aimed at testing long-term memory,students took notes as before but were tested a week after the lecture. This time, the students who wrote notes by hand performed significantly better on the exam.These two experiments suggest that handwritten notes are not only better for immediate learning and understanding, but that they also lead to superior revision in the future.15.More and more students favor laptops for note-taking because they can ______ .A. write more notesB. digest concepts betterC. get higher scoresD. understand lectures better16.While taking notes, laptop users tend to be ______ .A. skillfulB. thoughtfulC. mindlessD. tireless17.The author of the passage aims to ______ .A. examine the importance of long-term memoryB. stress the benefit of taking notes by handC. explain the process of taking notesD. promote the use of laptops18.The passage is likely to appear in ______ .A. a newspaper advertisementB. a computer textbookC. a science magazineD. a finance reportDIn the UK，electric and other low-emission（低排放）cars, vans, and buses could be given special green plates to encourage more people to buy such cars, and promote awareness for "clean" cars.Strange as it may seem, there is some reason to believe that something as small as this could make a big difference. Already, similar ideas have been put into effect in Norway, Canada, Latvia, and China, and the results have been encouraging.Elisabeth Costa, director of the Behavioural Insights Team, explains, "Simple changes based on behavioral science can have a big impact. Green plates would be more noticeable to road users, and this increased attraction can help normalise the idea of clean vehicles, highlighting （使突出）the changing social norms（规范）around vehicle ownership."Actually, hybrids and electric cars accounted for 5.5% of the cars sold in the UK in the first half of the year, compared to 4.2% for the same period in 2017.However, colored plates can only go so far. At the end of the day, you need strong, concrete（具体的）measures if you want to support a market like electric cars. The UK already has generous allowances for electric cars, but a study for the RAC Foundation found that the lack of reliable, easy-to-use charging stations is the main roadblock to people purchasing more electric cars.This was repeated by separate research from AA，the UK's largest motorist association, which found that although 1 in 2 young drivers want electric cars, 8 out of 10 drivers feel that the lack of adequate electrical chargers is the main reason not to buy an electric car.Yet this all shows that more and more people are nearing a tipping point where they are willing to buy electric cars. And a small PR stunt（噱头），the "coolness factor" of the colored plates could end up making a difference. Similarly, having red plates for the more polluting cars might also play a role.A spokesman for the Environmental Transport Association said,"While green number plates will be positive PR for low-emission car makers and early adopters of the technology alike, to be truly effective any such measures will need to at the same time shame the drivers of the most polluting vehicles."19.Why does the UK give green license plates to cars？______A. To promote car sales.B. To beautify the environment in the UK.C. To separate "clean" cars from polluting cars.D. To inspire people to buy low-emission vehicles.20.What does the underlined sentence "colored plates can only go so far" mean？______A. The results of giving colored plates are discouraging.B. The measures of giving colored plates will be at an end.C. Giving colored plates has a limited impact on promoting "clean" cars.D. Giving colored plates will be replaced by strong, concrete measures.21.Why do most drivers choose not to buy an electric car？______A. Allowances for electric cars are not attractive.B. They aren't fond of the green color.C. Charging stations are not readily available.D. Electric cars are unaffordable to them.22.What did the spokesman for the Environmental Transport Association focus on？______A. Banning people from buying polluting cars.B. Continuing the use of green number plates.C. Replacing green plates with red ones.D. Shaming the drivers of polluting cars into buying "clean" cars.三、阅读七选五（本大题共5小题，共10.0分）How to keep a Relationship Healthy and Strong Are you new to experiencing relationships？Well,let me give you advice on how to have a healthy relationship with your partners.（1）______ Don't hide things from them,and don't lie. Don't be afraid to say things that aren't very flattering（讨好的）about yourself. Getting them to trust you is the most important factor in any relationship. If there's no trust,there's nothing there.

My dad had as much pride as anybody, I suppose, so he wouldn’t just say that we couldn’t afford one. When I mentioned it, my mother said that we weren’t going to have one this year, that we couldn’t afford one, and even if we could------it was stupid to mess up your house with a dead tree.About three days before Christmas, I was out collecting for my paper route. It was fairly late------long after dark------it was snowing and very cold. I went to the apartment building to try to catch a customer who hadn’t paid me for nearly two months------ she owed me seven dollars. Much to my surprise, she was home. She invited me in and not only did she pay me, she also gave me a dollar tip.On the way home, I walked past a Christmas tree shop and the idea hit me. The selection wasn’t very good because it was so close to the holiday, but there was this one real nice tree. It had been a very expensive tree and no one had bought it; now it was so close to Christmas that the man was afraid no one would.He wanted ten dollars for it, but when I told him what I had, he said he might sell it for that. I really didn’t want to spend the whole money on the tree, but it was so pretty that I finally agreed. I dragged it all the way home------ about a mile, I think------ and I tried hard not to damage it. I arrived at home at last. My heart was bursting as I announced that I had a surprise.“Where did you get that tree?” my mother exclaimed. But it wasn’t the kind of exclamationthat indicates pleasure. After she knew the truth, she said that I was going to end up in the poorhouse because I believe in stupid things like Christmas trees. My mother had never talked to me like that before and I couldn’t believe what I was hearing.24. Why did the writer’s mother refuse a tree?A. Because she couldn’t afford a dead Christmas tree.B. Because she thought it was unreasonable to have a tree.C. Because she was much so proud that she felt better.D. Because she thought she wasn’t very proud of herself.25. How did the writer feel when he got home?A. Upset and calm.B. Anxious and happy.C. Proud and excited.D. Sorry and confused.26. What made the shop owner sell the tree?A. His pity on the writer’s situationB. His desire of offering helpC. His worry of keeping the tree.D. His kindness of helping others27. What the writer’s mother said in the last paragraph means ______.A. she was pleasedB. she was angryC. she was doubtfulD. she was embarrassedCIn every British town, large and small, you will find shops that sell second-hand goods. Sometimes such shops deal mostly in furniture, sometimes in books, sometimes in ornaments（装饰）and household goods, sometimes even in clothes.The furniture may often be “antique”, and it may well have ch anged hands many times. It may also be very valuable, although the most valuable piece will usually go to the London salerooms, where one piece might well be sold for hundreds of thousands of pounds. As you look around these shops and see the polished wood of chests and tables, you cannot help thinking of those long-dead hands which polished that wood, of those now-closed eyes which once looked at these pieces with love.The books, too, may be antique and very precious; some may be rare first printings. Often when someone dies or has to move house, his books may all be sold, so that sometimes you may find whole libraries in one shop. On the border between England and Wales, there is a town which has become a huge bookshop as well. Even the cinema and castle have been taken over, and now books have replaced sheep as the town’ s main trade.There are also much more humble shops, sometimes simply called “junk shops”, where youcan buy small household pieces very cheaply. Sometimes the profits（利润）from these shops go to charity. Even these pieces, though, can make you feel sad; you think of those people who once treasured them, but who have moved on to another country or to death.Although the British do not worship（崇拜）their ancestors, they do treasure the past and the things of the past. This is true of houses as well. These days no one knocks them down; they are rebuilt until they are often better than new. In Britain, people do not buy something just because it is new. Old things are treasured for their proven worth; new things have to prove themselves before they are accepted.28．Books found in second-hand book shops may .A. be copies of the earliest printingsB. be on sale for the first timeC. never be worth very muchD. never be rare29．What was the small town on the border between England and Wales famous for?A. Its sheep.B. Its bookshops.C. Its cinema.D. Its castle. 30．The average British person .A. does not respect old things because they are not fashionableB. likes to build new houses simply because it is fashionable to do soC. likes to buy new things because they are fashionable.D. does not like to buy things simply because they are fashionable31．What does the underlined word “them” (Paragraph 4) refer to?A. junk shopsB. profits from shopsC. old thingsD. old housesDFrom self-driving cars to carebots for elderly people, rapid development in technology has long represented a possible threat to many jobs normally performed by people. But experts now believe that almost 50 percent of occupations existing today will be completely unnecessary by 2025 as artificial intelligence continues to change businesses.“The next fifteen years will see a revolution in how we work, and a revolution will necessarily take place in how we plan and think about workplaces,” said Peter Andrew, Director of Workplace Strategy for CBRE Asia Pacific.A growing number of jobs in the future will require creative intelligence, social skills and the ability to use artificial intelligence.The report is based on interviews with 200 experts, business leaders and young people from Asia Pacific, Europe and North America. It shows that in the US technology already destroys more jobs than it creates.But the report states: “Losing occupations does not necessarily mean losing jobs —just changing what people do.” Growth in new jobs could occur as much, according to the research.“The growth of 20 to 40 person companies that h ave the speed and technological know-how will directly challenge big companies,” it states.A 2014 report by Pew Research found 52 percent of experts in artificial intelligence and robotics were optimistic about the future and believed there would still be enough jobs in the next few years. The optimists pictured “a future in which robots do not take the place of more jobs than they create,” according to Aaron Smith, the report’s co-author.“Technology will continue to affect jobs, but more jobs seem likely to be created. Although there have always been unemployed people, when we reached a few billion people there were billions of jobs. There is no shortage of things that need to be done and that will not change,” Microsoft’s Jonathan Grudin told researchers.32. We can infer from the text that in the future _____.A. people will face many difficultiesB. people will take up more creative jobsC. artificial intelligence will threaten people's livesD. most jobs will be done in traditional workplaces33. According to the report, _____.A. people won't necessarily lose jobsB. big companies will face fewer challengesC. small companies will win against big companiesD. most people will become interested in technology34. What is the attitude of most experts in artificial intelligence and robotics to the future?A. Mixed.B. Worried.C. Hopeful.D. Doubtful.35. Jonathan Grudin's words in the last paragraph suggest that _____.A. there will be enough jobs for peopleB. things will change a lot in a few yearsC. many people will become unemployedD. technology will totally change future jobs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。

Four years ago, brothers Mark and Paul Hayward decided to fill 81 acres of their farm land with wildflowers. This week, a study found they were feeding one million bees at any time.“This was our target when we started, to, grow enough flowers to feed a million bees on a single day.” Mark said. “We are acutely aware that bees are under threat from modern farming methods and that East England is one of the worst places where bees are seriously suffering from lack of wildflower diversity,” he continued.“Every third bite of food you eat can come from bees and we wanted to create an operation on our farm that did not push nature out but rather hugged it-as a central part of our ecology system and our food cycle,” he said.The farm uses all kinds of seeds which can produce many different wild plants and of course, the bees can get food from different wildflowers.“We are taking a very small role in helping society restore a balance and this starts with plant diversity to encourage insects, bees, small mammals(哺乳动物), and birds,” said Paul. “At the end of the day, we see ourselves as caretakers of this land. Between us we have six children and we owe it to them to farm sustainability(持续性)and set an example for the generations to come,” added Paul.According to the Bee Conservation Trust, many types of bees have seen their populations decline by 70%, and two species have become extinct in the last century.Gill Perkins, CEO of the Bee Conservation Trust said, “Thanks to Mark and Paul, at least here, a million bees can keep living, which is of great significance for ourselves now and future.”4．What can we know about the brothers from the first two paragraphs?A．They have about 160 acres of land.B．They grow wild flowers for pigs.C．They are not good at growing wild flowers.D．They have to support 1, 000, 000 bees in their land.5．Why are bees under threat in East England?A．There is a shortage of water for bees.B．Bees are not used to the modern society.C．There are too many animals eating bees.D．Bees can not find different wild flowers.6．What is Gill Perkins’ attitude to the action?A．Opposed.B．Doubtful.C．Supportive.D．Disappointed.7．What is the best title for the text?A．The Bees are in Danger NowB．Two Brothers Feed a Million BeesC．Only one Million Bees are Surviving in East EnglandD．Two Brothers Love Wild Flowers in East EnglandIn the days before the Internet, critical thinking was the most important skill of informed citizens. But in the digital age, according to Anastasia Kozyreva, a psychologist at the Max Planck Institute of Human Development, and her colleagues, an even more important skill is critical ignoring.As the researchers point out, we live in an attention economy where content producers on the Internet compete for our attention. They attract us with a lot of emotional and eye-catching stories while providing little useful information, so they can expose us to profit-generating advertisements. Therefore,we are no longer customers but products, and each link we click is a sale of our time and attention. Toprotect ourselves from this, Kozyreva advocates for learning the skill of critical ignoring, in which readers intentionally control their information environment to reduce exposure to false and low-quality information.According to Kozyreva, critical ignoring comprises three strategies. The first is to design ourenvironments, which involves the removal of low-quality yet hard-to-resist information from around. Successful dieters need to keep unhealthy food out of their homes. Likewise, we need to set up a digital environment where attention-grabbing items are kept out of sight. Aswith dieting, if one tries to bank onwillpower not to click eye-catching “news”, he’ll surely fail. So, it’s better to just keep them out of sightto begin with.The next is to evaluate the reliability of information, whose purpose is to protect you from false and misleading information. It can be realized by checking the source in the mainstream news agencies which have their reputations for being trustworthy.The last goes by the phrase “do not feed the trolls.” Trolls are actors who internationally spread false and hurtful information online to cause harm. It may be appealing to respond to them to set the facts straight, but trolls just care about annoying others rather than facts. So, it’s best not to reward their bad behaviour with our attention.By sharpening our critical ignoring skills in these ways, we can make the most of the Internet while avoiding falling victim to those who try to control our attention, time, and minds.8．What can we learn about the attention economy from paragraph 2?A．It offers little information.B．It features depressing stories.C．It saves time for Internet users.D．It seeks profits from each click. 9．Why does the author mention dieters in paragraph 3?A．To discuss the quality of informationB．To prove the benefits of healthy food.C．To show the importance of environments.D．To explain the effectiveness of willpower.10．What should we do to handle Internet trolls according to the text?A．Reveal their intention.B．Turn a deaf ear to them.C．Correct their behaviour.D．Send hard facts to them.11．What is the text mainly about?A．Reasons for critical thinking in the attention economy.B．Practising the skill of critical ignoring in the digital age.C．Maximizing the benefits of critical ignoring on the Internet.D．Strategies of abandoning critical thinking for Internet usersbecause of a lack of charging points for electric vehicles, industry experts warn. The Government wants to outlaw the sale of new fuel models in order to go green and cutpollution. But industry figures suggest this may not be possible. Analysis highlights a lack of high-powered electric vehicle (EV) chargers at motorway service stations.The Government has promised that every motorway service area has at least six rapid chargers by the end of 2023. But only 27 out of 119 motorway services in England meet that target. This will fuel “charge point anxiety”, which experts warn is preventing drivers from buying electric cars in case they cannot power them up while on journeys. Lisa Watson, director of sales at Close Brothers Motor Finance, said: “The UK is set to fall significantly short of its charging point targets.”This could have a far-reaching effect on consumer uptake of alternative fuel vehicles. If more isn’t done to improve charging infrastructure (基础设施), the 2030 ban on new petrol and diesel vehicles will seem an increasingly tough task. Rapid charge points can add about 100 miles of range to an EV in 35 minutes and are seen as crucial to encouraging more motorists who use their cars for long journeys to make the switch to electric.There are also concerns over the distribution of public charging points.While Westminster has 2,196, there are just 1,593 across Liverpool, Manchester, Newcastle upon Tyne, Leeds, Sheffield and Birmingham. The Society of Motor Manufacturers and Traders expects plug-in battery electric vehicles to account for 18.4% of car sales this year and 22.6% next year-down from previous forecasts of 19.7% and 23.3%.A government spokesman said, “The importance of ensuring high-powered charging is readily available up and down our motorway network can’t be highlighted enough. A lack of charging facilities is becoming one of the most widely quoted reasons for drivers not going electric.”12．What is the probable meaning of the underlined word “scrapped” in paragraph 1?A．Passed.B．Canceled.C．Suggested.D．Strengthened. 13．What causes people to avoid buying electric vehicles?A．Charge point anxiety.B．Bad motorway service.C．The imperfection of law.D．Too slow charging speed.14．What can we infer about rapid charge points from paragraph 3?A．They are hard to popularize.B．They can lead to an increase in drivers.C．They will boost people’s confidence in EVs.D．They enable an EV to run 35 minutes.15．Which of the following may the government spokesman agree with?A．Sufficient high-powered charging must be provided.B．The excuse for drivers not to buy EVs is unacceptable.C．There is too much focus on high-powered charging.D．The lack of charging devices will continue for a long time.Think about the last time you felt a negative emotion — like stress, anger, or frustration.16 Was your mind cluttered (凌乱) with thoughts? Or was it paralyzed, unable to think?The next time you find yourself in the middle of a very stressful time, or you feel angry or frustrated, stop. Whatever you’re doing, stop and sit for one minute. 17 Take the entire minute to do nothing else but feel that emotion.If you feel you need to hold on to the emotion for a little longer, that is OK. 18 When you feel you’ve had enough of the emotion, ask yourself if you’re willing to carry that negativity with you for the rest of the day. If not, take a deep breath. As you do that, release all that negativity with your breath.This exercise seems simple — almost too simple. 19 By allowing that negative emotion the space to be truly felt, you are dealing with the emotion rather than stuffing it down and trying not to feel it. 20 When you lose yourself in the emotion, and realize that it is only emotion, it loses its control. You can clear your head and proceed with your task. Try it. Next time you’re in the middle of a negative emotion, give yourself the space to feel the emotion and see what happens.Remember to take the time you need to really immerse yourself in the emotion. Then, when you feel you’ve felt it enough, release it — really let go of it. You will be surprised at how quickly you can move on from a negative situation and get to what you really want to do!A．Yet it is very effective.B．This will remind you of the steps to the process.C．Allow yourself another minute to feel the emotion.D．What was going through your mind as you were undergoing that negativity?E．While you’re sitting there, completely immerse yourself in the negative emotion.F．Are you willing to keep holding on to this negative emotion as you go through the rest of the day?G．You are actually taking away the power of the emotion by giving it the space and attention it needs.二、完形填空I was gating ready to head to my daughter’s college to bring her home for New Year. Thedrive.Usually a three-hour round 22 but I knew it was going to be a lot 23 today as I slowed my car to 24 the slippery roads. Once I was on the road, though, condition only worsened I 25 slowed down but four-wheel trucks sped past me 26 huge showers of slush (融雪) onto my windshield (挡风玻璃). During the last twenty miles I suddenly found myself behind a very 27 winter driver. Instead of driving slow and adjusting, when he hit a slippery spot he braked (刹车) hard and tamed sharply all over the road. I had to 28 hard myself to keep from hitting him but unfortunately slid into a ditch (沟).I tried pulling out again and again but could only hear 29 tires. I was half-way out in the road and a truck sped by me, missing the car by inches. I looked about the car 30 and amazingly the car started to 31 , as if it was almost being pushed out of the ditch. From the driving mirror I spotted a 32 covered with snow, pushing my car as hard as possible. When I stuck out my hand to greet him with gratitude, he 33 signed me good luck, getting on his car.Just as a famous writer Henry 34 it, “He who walks in love may wander far.” Wherever you go then and however 35 your journeys may be, always remember that you are watched over by people with a love more powerful and more beautiful than you can ever imagine.21．A．snow B．rain C．fog D．shower 22．A．rescue B．flight C．search D．trip 23．A．shorter B．faster C．longer D．easier 24．A．clear B．match C．consider D．find 25．A．even B．further C．finally D．immediately 26．A．moving B．causing C．throwing D．holding27．A．untrustworthy B．unfriendly C．patient D．inexperienced 28．A．stop B．brake C．work D．hit 29．A．spinning B．running C．flat D．broken 30．A．curiously B．hopefully C．helplessly D．surprisingly 31．A．move B．trap C．jump D．increase 32．A．lady B．truck C．car D．figure 33．A．suddenly B．surely C．eventually D．simply 34．A．makes B．puts C．helps D．gets 35．A．safe B．different C．pleasant D．dangerous三、语法填空阅读下面材料，在空白处填入适当的内容（不多于3个单词）或括号内单词的正确形式。
