Questions 20 to 23 are based on the following passage.
Viktor Frankl， a famous Jewish psychiatrist(精神病醫生）, wrote his bestselling 1946 book Mans Search for Meaning in nine days about his experiences in Nazi concentration camps. Frankl concluded that the difference between thoseprisoners who had lived and those who had died came down to one thing ： Meaning, an insight he came to early in life.
In 1991, the Library of Congress listed Man5s Search for Meaning as one of the 10 most influential books in the United States. It has sold millions of copies worldwide. Now, over twenty years later, the book s ideas—its emphasis on meaning, the value of suffering, and responsibility to something greater than the self—seem to be at odds with our culture,which is more interested in the pursuit of individual happiness than in the search for meaning. But happiness cannot bepursued. It follows. One must have a reason to be happy,”Franklwrote.
According to Gallup, the happiness levels of Americans are at a four-year high. Gallup also reports that nearly 60%of all Americans today feel happy, without a lot of stress or worry. On the other hand, according to the Center for DiseaseControl, about 4 out of 10 Americans have not discovered a satisfying life purpose. 40% either do not think their liveshave a clear sense of purpose or are neutral about whether their lives have purpose. Nearly a quarter of Americans do nothave a strong sense of what makes their lives meaningful.
Research has shown that having purpose and meaning in life increases overall well-being and life satisfaction, improves mental and physical health, and decreases the chances of depression. On top of that, the single-minded pursuit ofhappiness is leaving people less happy, according to recent research.
20. According to Paragraph 1, we know that Viktor Frankl_____________ .
A. wrote his early life experience as a soldier
B. lost his hope of seeking the meaning of life
C. spent nine days in Nazi concentration camps
D. survived with the spiritual support of life meaning
21. The book’sideas dont agree with American culture because Americans are more interested in searching for____.
A. happiness B. meaning C. suffering D. stress
22. The percentage of Americans who don’t have a satisfying life purposeis______________ .
A. 25% B. 60% C. 40% D. 10%
23. Which of the following is the idea the author intends to convey?
A. Mental health is the most important factor in life.
B. Pursuit of happiness is the most important thing in life.
C. Physical health can be improved if you are happy.
D. Realizing the meaning of life is important to happiness.
Questions 24 to 27 are based on the following passage.
If you’ve ever lost your wallet (錢包), then you know that it’s a very terribleexperience. Most people keep a lotintheir wallets. That’s where they keep their drivers license, their credit cards, and all kinds of other important things. Of course，that’s also where most of us keep our cash.
We all need cash in our lives. However, something called digital currency is slowly replacing cash. A currency is a kind of money. Usually, we use currency when we talk about a country’s money. For example, the UK is the pound, and the USA is the dollar. If something is digital, it only exists ona computer. So “digital currency” means money thatonlyexistson computers.
Lots of people have digital currency accounts. They use a credit card to change their real money into digital money, and then the money goes into the digital currency account. A lot ofpeople wonder, “Why in the worldshould I change myreal moneyinto digital money? ” This is a fair question, but there’s a good answer. If you want to buysomething online, then you usually have to use digital currency. For example， if you’re in China and you want to buy something in Canada, then you’ll have to pay with digital currency.
Many people still don’t trust digital currency. Some people think that if they can’thold their money in their hand, then it doesn’t seem real. These people don’tfeel comfortable when they see numbers ona computer screen. The computertells them that their money is safe, but these people don’tfeel safe. Another problem is security. There are hackers all overtheworld. A hacker is a person whosteals computer information. If a hacker gets the password of your digital currency account, he or she can steal your money.
You have to decide whether or not you trust this new invention. Just remember one thing： If you want to buysomething online, then you probably won’thave achoice. You’ll have to use digital money.
24. The word “fair”（ Para. 3) is closest in meaning to__________ .
A. beautiful B. equal C. pleasant D. reasonable
25. Which of the following is probably a hacker according to the passage?
A. A person who usesa computer to steal things.
B. A personwho composes computer programs.
C. A person who usesa computer to buy things.
D. A person who owns a lot of digital currency.
26. How do those who don’t trust digital currency think about money?
A. The money ona computer screen is safe.
B. The money in their hand is real.
C. Real money is worth more than digital money.
D. Real money and digital money are the same.
27. What does the passage mainly talk about?
A. Hacker problems in the world. B. Currencies used in particular countries.
C. A new kind of money. D. Safety of digital currency.
Questions 28 to 31 are based on the following passage.
Zoos are hugely popular attractions for adults and children alike. But are they actually a good thing?
Critics of zoos would argue that animals often suffer physically and mentally by being enclosed (封閉). Even the best artificial environments can^ come close to matching the space and freedom that animals have in their natural environments. Thisenclosure causes many zoo animals tobecome stressed or mentally ill. Capturing animals in the wild also causes much suffering by splitting up families. Some zoos make animals behave unnaturally. For example, in some parksdolphins (海豚)are forced to perform tricks, who may die decades earlier than their wild relatives. And some even try to kill themselves.
On the other hand, by bringing people and animals together, zoos have the potentialto educate the public aboutconservation issues and inspire people to protect animals and their natural environments. Some zoos provide a safe environment for animals which have been mistreated by people, or pets which have been abandoned. Zoos also carry out importantresearch into subjects like animal behavior and how to treat illnesses. One of the most important modern functions of zoos issupporting international breeding(繁殖) programmes, particularly forendangered species(種群). In the wild， some ofthe rarest species have difficulty in finding mates and breeding. A good zoo will enable these species to live and breed insecure environments.
So, are zoos good for animals or not? Perhaps it all depends on how well individual zoos are managed, and the benefits of zooscan surely outweigh their harmful effects. However, it is understandable that many people believe imprisoninganimalsfor any reason is simply wrong.
28. The expression “artificial environments” (Para. 2)is used in contrast to_______________.
A. natural environments B. some zoos
C. breeding programmes D. modern functions
29. Why are dolphins mentioned in Paragraph 2?
A. They are ocean animals.
B. They are good at performing.
C. They are made to behave unnaturally in some parks.
D. They are supported by international breeding programmes.
30. According to the passage, international breeding programmes are particularly important to________.
A. animals in zoos B. split-up families
C. dolphins in parks D.endangered species
31. What is the author’s attitude towards zoos?
A. Negative B. Positive C. Critical D. Understandable
Questions 32 to 35 are based on the following passage.
How many times, when finding yourself in a difficult situation, have you heard something like, “You just need to go somewhere, change your environment, and meet new people.” Upon hearing this, we think such advice can be annoying： going through hard times, you rather expect help, sympathy, or at least something more practical, rather than“You know， you should travel”. However, the surprising truth is that this is probably one of the most useful and practical pieces of advice you can get.
Of course, you cannot abandon everything and set off to go on a world trip. All of us have duties, responsibilities, debts, connections. However, the advice to travel does not necessarily imply something like departing to Nepal and living among monks(僧侶)for years. In fact, small but regular journeys are available almost to everyone, and the positiveeffects they can have on your mental condition and your ability to cope with difficulties are significant.
When you are stressed， your thoughts obviously cannot be positive and optimistic(樂觀的`).So, whether you want it or not, you will view your life situationfroma rather pessimistic perspective(悲觀的視角). However， when you board a plane and fly overseas, you almost immediately start to feel your problems fade. “Out of sight, out of mind,’’ as the saying goes. Of course, I am not saying the easiest way to feel better is to escapefromproblems; I rather mean that taking a break and allowing yourself to breathe in some fresh air can give you a new perspective. Having a good rest is a necessary condition of any recovery, and your mind definitely needs restfromtime to time.
Speaking of new perspectives, when travelling, you will inevitably meet a lot of new people. Some of them willbecome friends of yours; some will remain strangers. Psychologists have known that perhaps the most honest andsincere communication often occurs between strangers； this is called "the companion effect”. Useit to your advantage. Whether youneed advice, help, or a person who would quietly listen to you as you share your hardships, there is no better opportunity to get all thisfromstrangers while travelling. Travelling can not solve your problems but will help you recoverfromyourmental wounds, get rid of the excessive stress, and give you the skills to deal with your hardships as you return home.
32. While in a difficult situation, people think the suggestion “You just need to gosomewhere”______..
A. annoying B. surprising C. practical D. useful
33. What does the advice to travel really mean in this passage?
A. Finding a temple and living with the monks.
B. Giving up your duties and departing to Nepal.
C. Starting a small journey and getting yourself refreshed.
D. Forgetting everything and starting a trip around the world.
34. What does the word “ it ” （ Para. 4) refer to?
A. A trip. B. The communication. C. A new perspective. D. The companion effect.
35. What is the probable title for this passage?
A. Sincere Communication Is a Way Out of Problems
B. Travelling Offers New Perspectives in Life Situation
C. Going Through Hard Times Needs Help and Sympathy
D. Travelling Is the Best Way to EscapefromProblems

Part II. Reading Comprehension(50 points)
Directions: In this part there are four passages. Each passage is followed by five questions or unfinished statements. For each of them, there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. You should decide on the best choice and mark the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet with a single line through the centre.
Passage One
Most American people hate repeating the same workendlessly, especially those who live in West America. They try their best to make their life colorful and their work interesting. If they have
to do the same regular work, they’ll try to do it in different ways. Repetition and monotony ( 單 調 )
are what they cant stand.
In the West of America, there is a beautiful old mountain village which is well known for its straw hats. The villagers there can make different styles of hats—hats for old gentlemen, for sweet and playful children, and for beautiful young ladies. People often go there to buy hats.
One day there came a young tourist who entered a hat shop and found a very nice hat that cost five dollars. He said to the shop-keeper,” If you agree to sell at a cheaper price, Id like to buy two hundred hats of this style.” “No, you should pay me at least ten dollars each if you wish to get so many hats of the same style.”
“Hows that?” The tourist could not understand.
“Well,” said the shop-keeper, “if you buy only one hat of this style, I can make it easily. If you order two hundred hats of different styles, I can also manage the business without much difficulty. However, it will almost bore me to death if you want me to make two hundred hats of the same style. So at least you pay me double price.”
61.We can learnfromthe story that .
A.only the straw hats of the same style were sold

Passage Three
Doctors have known for a long time that extremely loud noises can cause hearing damage or loss. The noise can be the sound of a jet airplane or machines in factories or loud music orother common sounds found at home or at work. A person only needs to hear the noise for a little more than one second to be affected. An American scientist has found that using aspirin can increase the temporary hearing loss or damagefromloud noise. He did an experiment, using a number of male students at a university who all had normal hearing. He gave them different amounts of aspirin for different periods of time, and then he tested their hearing ability. He found that the students who were given four grams of aspirin a day for two days suffered much greater temporary hearing loss than those who did not use aspirin. The hearing loss was about two times as great. The scientist said millions of people in the United States use much larger amounts of aspirin than were used in the study. He said these people face a serious danger of suffering hearing lossfromloud noise.
71.Hearing damage or loss may be caused by .
A.loud music B. the sound of a jet airplane or machines

Passage Four
Ancient people had little idea of the nature of the earths surface. But if they lived on the seashore, they knew that there was land and sea.
People who lived near the sea noticed that there were two kinds of land. There were, first, little pieces of land surrounded by sea. One Latin word for “sea” is “salum”, which means “salt”. This is
because sea water, unlike rain-water, contains salt—it is salty. So a piece of land in the sea was “in
salt” in Latin, and this became isle in English.
Then there was another kind of land that went on and on. It was “continuous land, and so became known as continent in Englishfromthe Latin “continēnts” meaning continuous. In English, we also speak of a continent as the mainland (“main” comesfromthe Latin “magnus” meaning “ great”), as opposed to island( isle-land).
To the ancient Greek, there seemed to be three continents separated by sea. The Mediterranean Sea, in fact, getsits namefromthe Latin “medius” (middle) and “terra” (land). It was a sea that lay
in the middle, with three bodies of land around it. The three continents—Asia, Europe and Africa—
are actually connected by land. Africa and Asia are connected by only the small Sinai Isthmus,fromthe Greek “isthmus” meaning “a narrow passage”, but Europe and Asia are connected by land for a thousand miles or more and it is customary to speak of Europe as a continent. Many geographers speak of the landmass of Asia plus Europe as Eurasia, and Eurasia plus Africa is sometimes called the World Island. The three together are surrounded by sea, so they form a large island, and they contain about 85 percent of the earths population.
76.People in ancient times knew .
A.a lot about land and sea B. some continents were connected
C. little about the surface of the earth D. many people lived on the World Island
77.The word “continent” comesfromlanguage.
A.the Latin B. the Roman C. the Greek D. the Hebrew
78.“Eurasia” isthe namefor the continents of .
A.Europe and Asia B. Europe and Africa
C. Africa and Asia D. Europe, Asia and Africa
79.What connects Asia and Africa?
A.A small island. B. A large desert.
C. A narrow passage. D. A wide land.
80.About 85% of the population in the world are living .
A.in Europe B. in Asia
C. in Eurasia D. on the World Island
Part III. Translation (20 points)

Learning English has been almost a painful experience for me, one that I wouldn’t trade for anything. Not only did learning English teach me the value of hard work, but also gave me
insights( 領 悟 ) into another culture. The most exciting result of having learned English is that I am
ableto communicate with many more people than before. Talking with people is my favorite activity, so the newly learned language allows me to meet new people, participate in conversations, and form new andunforgettable friendships.

College Students Doing Part-Time Jobs
There are many advantages for college students to have part-time jobs. First, it can help the students to realize that if they want to be successful, they need to be hard-working. Next, doing part-time jobs can help the students to learn about time management. Then, doing part-time jobs can provide the students opportunities to put what they have learned in class into practice, which, in turn, will help them learn about what exactly is needed in real jobs.
However, there may also be some disadvantages. Firstly, the students study hours may be shortened depending on circumstances. They may not have enough time to do their homework or study for their examinations. Secondly, some students maybecome too preoccupied with making money. They may not be willingto commit as much time as needed to their study. The consequences may include failure in examinations or non-graduation in theend.
As far as I am concerned, college students can take part-time jobs as long as they can keep a good balance between their study and their part-time jobs.

Part III Reading Comprehension
In this age of equality, sameness between the sexes is emphasized as if differences have to mean problems. Well, differences can mean problems. but only when they are not properly understood.
Imagine Adam alone in the Garden of Eden and you will have an idea about the way many men feel today. If the major issue for women is overload in their life----balancing career, relationships, children, home ---- the crisis for men is loneliness and the loss of women. Twenty-five years ago, most men came homefromwork to a warm meal, a clean house, the devotion of a gentle wife. Now the majority of women work outside, they are no longer the full-time housewives as before, so men are feeling deserted and easily hurt.
Women get emotional support througha network of friends and family. Most men dont have such relationships; they are intimate only with their wives or lovers. As a result, any lessening of their partner’s attention may be thought of as rejection or abandonment.
Bobs wife Sandy has a full-time job, and he really prefers her bringing home extraincome. Yet he also feels uneasy and troubled. "When I get home at theendof the day, wanting to have a talk with Sandy, he said, "She puts me of. First she makes dinner, then the kids need something, or a friendcalls her. She talks with her sister, her girlfriends, her workmates, but not with me. I sometimes do feel abandoned and annoyed."
Since most men have difficulty admitting loneliness and hurt, they tendtobecome angry instead. Bobsconstant complaints and criticism made Sandy confused and irritated. Eventually, they came up with a simple solution that met both Bob’s need for time and Sandys sense of responsibility to others. The first half-hour after arrived homefromwork was “theirs”, they would sit together and just talk to each other about everything they want to say.
51. Many men feel hurt and abandoned because _____________.

B) their wives are no longer gentle and caring to the family
C) the equality of men and women is strongly emphasized
D) most women have their own jobs and don’t have enough time and energy caring about men
52. Why do men care a lot about their coupler’s attitude towards them?
A) Because their differences can mean problems,
B) Because they dont havea network of friends and family,
C) Because they only want to have an intimate relation with their wives.
D) Because men lack confidence nowadays.
53. Which of the following statements about Bob and Sandy is true?
A) Bob doesnt wish Sandy to do a full-time job.
B) Sandy is too busy to have time talking with Bob.
C) Sandy puts Bob off since theresno common topic between them anymore.
D) Sandy feels equal to Bob now and no longer loves him as before.

A) Differences between men and women would certainly bring problems.
B) All human beings should be considered equal.
C) Only sameness could bring happiness to a marriage life.
D) Mutual understanding between men and women helps to solve problems.
Passage Two
Many people have the experience that getting up in the morning is so difficult and painful. This might be called laziness. But Dr. Kleitman has a new explanation to this, he has proved that everyone has a daily energy cycle.
During the hours when you labor through your work, you may say that youre feeling “hot”. That’s true. The time of day when you feel most energetic is when your cycle of body temperature is at its peak. No one has discovered why this is so, but it leads to such familiar monologue as: "Get up, Tom! Youll be late for school again! The possible explanation to the trouble is that Tom is at his temperature and energy peak in the evening.
Much family quarrellingends when husbands and wives realize what these energy cycles mean, and which cycle each member of the family has. You cant change your energy cycle, but you can learn to make your life fit it better. Habit can help a lot. Maybe youre sleepy in the evening but feel you must stay up late anyway, counteract your cycle to some extent by habitually staying up later than you want to. However, if your energy is low in the morning but you have an important job to do early in the day, rise before your usual hour. This wont change your cycle, but youll get up steam and work better at your low point.
Get off to slow start which saves your energy. Get up with a leisurely yawn and stretch. Sit on the edge of the bed a minute before putting your feet on the floor. Avoid the troublesome search for clean clothes by laying them out the night before. Whenever possible, do routine work in the afternoon and save tasks requiring more energy or concentration for your sharper hours.
55. According the passage, what might bring family quarrels to theend?
A) Stopping familiar monologues every day.
B) A sudden change of a family member’s energy cycle.
C) Being aware of energy cycles of other family members.
D) Trying to control the energy cycles of other member
56. If one wants to do better at his low point in the morning, he should_________.
A) change his energy cycle B) go to bed earlier the day before
C) try toovercome his laziness D) get up earlier than usual
57. What does the sentence “get off to slow start which saves your energy” mean?
A) It will help you to control your temper early in the day.
B) It will enable you to concentrate on your routine work.
C) It will help to keep your energy for the whole day’ s work.
D) It will keep your energy cycle under control all day.
58. Which of the following is NOT mentioned in the passage?
A) Dr Klriman explains why people reach their peak at different hours of day.
B ) Habit can help people adjust to their own energy cycle.
C) Each person has his own energy cycle.
D) Getting up with a slow start helps us to save energy for work.
Passage Three
A person with a flat, dull voice which neither rises nor falls sounds like a flat and dull person. But he or she may not be! While we can’t deny the fact that people can give the impression that they are bored, anxious friendly or angry just by the sound of their voice.
A French friendof mine once said to me. " Your accent in French is excellent but you will never sound like a Frenchman until you put all your heart into your voice. It is a pity because you are a lively person and yet you don’t sound lively to a Frenchman!"
We learn the grammar and vocabulary and even the correct pronunciation of the foreign language, but we may forget the important emotional effect of the music of our speech. For British people, the intonation of language is attractive. Thats to say, the rise and fall in the sound of our voice when we speak really matters. Its unfortunate that the intonation of some other countries canoften communicate the wrong meaning.
British people sometimes feel offended because they think the other person is unfriendly even if he has spoken a perfect English sentence! And this failureof communication can also happen between British people themselves.
If you wantto communicate successfully with another person, you may have to think about the music of your own voice. Especially when you meet someonefroma different part of your country orfromanother country, you should be careful! Don’t judge them only by their intonation.
59. What does the writer want to show through the example in the second paragraph?
A) To learn a foreign language well, we must learn the sound and pronunciation well
B) Grammar, vocabulary and pronunciation are not the only important elements in learning a foreign language.
C) A person with a flat, dull voice will not give other good impression.
D) In learning a foreign language, we must talk to the native speakers frequently.
60. The word "music" in the third paragraph means___________.
A) intonation B) rising tone
C) sweet voice D) falling tone
61. British people sometimes feel offended while talking with others because .
A) they can’t understand what the other person says
B) the other person says something rude
C) the languages they speak are quite different
D) they misunderstand the other persons words
62. What is the main idea of the passage?
A) To communication with others successfully, we must know music well.
B) We cant simply judge a person by his voice, nor can we neglect the intonation.
C) Many listeners will not pay attention to the sound of ones voice.
D) Its not easy for peoplefromdifferent countries or partsto communicate.

Passage1
Many post-80s couplesare complaining that going to the movies, shopping or attending parties havebecome impossible since their kids were born. That s the way most parents are living their lives, no weekends of their own, no time to visit friends, not even a chance of promotion in their jobs.
Asking helpfromtheir parents might be a way out,but problems are that some aging parents are not strong enough to take care of the kids, and that the kids may alsobecome too spoiled by their grandparents.
Then,here comes a solution: families with kids can form a small group, and parents of each family can take turns to look after all the kids in this group on weekends. Thus, other parents can have some quiet time and feel free to do something they ve been planning for a long time. At the same time, the kids can make new friends and won t be hanging around their parents all day long. This is baby-pooling.

Passage2
It is a terrible illustration of man s weakness to nature ,and the tsunami(海嘯) that struck the Japanese coast in March,2011has illustrated the difficulty of fighting against natural disasters, even for a prosperous nation.
Totally preventing tsunami-damage is impossible. But there is much that can be done to minimize damage and loss of life. Measures that can be taken include designing solid buildings, and developing early-warming systems,public education programs and evacuation(疏散) strategies.Moreover, the approach of a tsunami is possibly picked up by the sensorsof complicated international warming systems. Countries can use radio and television broadcasts as well asloudspeaker networks to warn the public.
But an early warming system depends on how far the tsunami strikes, if it s close by, the warning system is not going to be very effective. When people are faced with an unstoppable force like a tsunami the massive waves
created by events like underwater earthquakes, the best course of action for them is to get inland and to the higher ground as quickly as possible.
66. The first paragraph tells us that .
A. man can easily defeat the nature
B. tsunamis take place only in Japan
C. man s ability to cope with natural disasters is limited
D. the tsunami-damage in Japan is not so terrible

Passage 3
Global warming is causing more than 300,000 deaths and about $125 billion in economic losses each year, according to a report by the Global Humanitarian Forum,an organization led by Annan, the former United Nations secretary general.
The report, to be released Friday, analyzed data and existing studies of health, disaster, population and economic trends. It found that human-influenced climate change was raising the global death ratesfromillnesses including malnutrition (營養不良) and heat-related health problems.
But even before its release, the report drew criticismfromsome experts on climate and risk, who questioned its methods and conclusions.
Along with the deaths, the report said that the lives of 325 million people, primarily in poor countries, were being seriously affected by climate change. It projected that the number would double by2030.
Roger Pielke Jr.a political scientist at the University of Colorado, Boulder, who studies disaster trends, said the Forum’s report was “a methodological embarrassment” because there was no way to distinguish deaths or economic losses related to human-driven global warming amid the much larger losses resultingfromthe growth in populations and economic development in vulnerable (易受傷害的) regions. Dr. Pielke said that “climate change is an important problem requiring our utmost attention.” But the report, he said, “will harm the cause for action on both climate change and disasters because it is so deeply flawed (有瑕疵的).”
However, Soren Andreasen, a social scientist at Dalberg Global Development Partners who supervised the writing of the report, defended it, saying that it was clear that the numbers were rough estimates. He said the report was aimed at world leaders, who will meet in Copenhagen in December to negotiate a new international climate treaty.
In a press release describing the report, Mr. Annan stressed the need for the negotiations to focus on increasing the flow of moneyfromrich to poor regions to help reduce their vulnerability to climate hazards while still curbing
the emissions of the heat-trapping gases. More than 90% of the human and economic lossesfromclimate change are occurring in poor countries, according to the report.
71.What is the finding of the Global Humanitarian Forum?
A．Global temperatures affect the rate of economic development.
B．Rates of deathfromillnesses have risen due to global warming.
C．Malnutrition has caused serious health problems in poor countries.
D．Economic trends have to do with population and natural disasters.
72. What do we learn about the Forum’s reportfromthe passage?
A．It was challenged by some climate and risk experts.
B．It aroused a lot of interest in the scientific circles.
C．It was warmly received by environmentalists.
D．It caused a big stir in developing countries.
73. What does Dr. Pielke say about the Forum’s report?
A．Its statistics look embarrassing.
B．It is invalid in terms of methodology.
C．It deserves our closest attention.
D．Its conclusion is purposely exaggerated.
74. What is Soren Andreasen’s view of the report?
A．Its conclusions are based on carefully collected data.
B．It is vulnerable to criticism if the statistics are closely examined.
C．It will give rise to heated discussions at the Copenhagen conference.
D．Its rough estimates are meant to draw the attention of world leaders.
75.What does Kofi Annan say should be the focus of the Copenhagen conference?
A．How rich and poor regions can share responsibility in curbing global warming.
B．How human and economic lossesfromclimate change can be reduced.
C．How emissions of heat-trapping gases can be reduced on a global scale.
D．How rich countries can better help poor regions reduce climate hazards.
Passage 4
Reaching new peaks of popularity in North America is Iceberg Water, which is harvestedfromicebergs off the coast of Newfoundland, Canada.
Arthur von Wiesenberger, who carries the title Water Master, is one of the few water critics in North America. As a boy, he spent time in the larger cities of Italy, France and Switzerland, where bottled water is consumed daily. Even then, he kept a water journal, noting the brands he liked best. “My dog could tell the difference between bottled and tap water,” He says.
But is plain tap water all that bad? Not at all. In fact, New York’s municipal water for more than a century was called the champagne of tap water and until recently considered among the best in the world in terms of both taste and purity. Similarly, a magazine in England found that tap waterfromthe Thames River tasted better than several leading brands of bottled water that were 400 times more expensive.
Nevertheless,soft-drink companies view bottled water as the next battle-ground for market share―this despite the fact that over 25 percent of bottledwater comesfromtap water: PepsiCo’s Aquafina and Coca-Cola’s Dasani are both purified tap water rather than spring water.
As diners thirst for leading brands, bottlers and restaurateurs salivate (垂涎) over the profits. A restaurant’s typical mark-up on wine is 100 to 150 percent, whereas on bottled water it’s often 300 to 500 percent. But since water is much cheaper than wine, and many of the fancier brands aren’t available in stores, most diners don’t notice or care.
As a result, some restaurants are turning up the pressure to sell bottled water. According to an article in The Street Journal, some of the more shameless tactics include placing attractive bottles on the table for a visual sell, listing brands on the menu without prices, and pouring bottled water without even asking the diners if they want it.
Regardless of how it’s sold, the popularity of bottled water taps into our desire for better health, our wish to appear cultivated, and even a longing for lost purity.
76. What do we know about Iceberg Waterfromthe passage?
A.It is a kind of iced water.
B. It is just plain tap water.
C .It is a kind of bottled water.
D .It is a kind of mineral water.
77. By saying “My dog could tell the difference between bottled and tap water (Line 4 Para2), Von Wiesenberger wants to convey the message that ________.
A .plain tap water is certainly unfit for drinking
B .bottled water is clearly superior to tap water
C. bottled water often appeals more to dogs taste
D. dogs can usually detect a fine difference in taste
78. The-fancier brands (Line 3 Para 5) refers to ________.
A. tap waterfromthe Thames River
B. famous wines not sold in ordinary stores
C.PepsiCo’s Aquafina and Coca-Cola’s Dasani
D. expensive bottled water withimpressive names
79. Why are some restaurants turning up the pressure to sell bottled water?
A. Bottled water brings in huge profits.
B. Competitionfromthe wine industry is intense.
C. Most diners find bottled water affordable.
D. Bottled water satisfied diners’ desire to fashionable.
80. According to passage, why is bottled water so popular?

B. It is considered healthier.
C.It appeals to more cultivated people.
D. It is more widely promoted in the market.

72.A 細節題。根據文章第三段But even before its release, the report drew criticismfromsome experts on climate and risk, who questioned its methods and conclusions.
可知A正確。
73.B 細節題。由第五段2,3,4行the Forum’s report was “a methodological embarrassment” because there was no way to distinguish deaths or economic losses related to human-driven global warming amid the much larger losses resultingfromthe growth in populations and economic development in vulnerable (易受傷害的) regions.說明他認為他的研究是無效的。故B正確。

本文主要講述了氣候變暖的幾位專家的觀點，并展開了議論。本文的障礙在于詞匯方面，考生要能夠在上下文的語境中猜測生詞的意思，同時要有很強的歸納總結能力，從從字里行間中推斷出對方所持的觀點。
Passage4答案解析：
這篇文章分析了瓶裝水在北美十分流行的原因。
文章開篇引題，以Iceberg Water為例，說明了瓶裝水在北美的火熱流行程度，為后文分析其流行的原因做好鋪墊。第一段只有一句話，作者把reach謂語提前，使用倒裝結構對Iceberg Water達到流行頂點這一事實進行強調，這樣Iceberg Water置于句末，借以使用非限制性定語從句對這種瓶裝水的來源進行描述。
第二段馬上指出了瓶裝水流行的原因，但這是借一位瓶裝水專家之口來指出媒體普遍的觀點：my dog could tell the difference between bottled and tap water，含義是瓶裝水明顯優于自來水。第二段的作用無疑是豎靶子以備批駁，第三段緊接著對這種觀點進行了分析，并用源自泰晤士河的自來水比幾種名牌瓶裝水口感更佳為例進行了反駁。
在接下來的四段中，作者具體分析了瓶裝水流行的真正原因。第四段有承上啟下的作用，把百事和可口可樂公司作為例子，既以兩家公司的瓶裝水25%來源于自來水的事實繼續反駁瓶裝水優于自來水的觀點，又以兩家公司對瓶裝水市場的重視引出瓶裝水流行的真正原因。
第五、六段論證了售賣方式是瓶裝水流行原因之一的觀點，最后一段指出除售賣方式之外的其他原因(our desire for better health, our wish to appear cultivated, and even a longing for lost purity)。
76. What do we know about Iceberg Waterfromthe passage?
A) It is a kind of iced water.
B) It is just plain tap water.
C) It is a kind of bottled water.
D) It is a kind of mineral water.(C)
本題問從文章可知Iceberg Water指的是什么。
文章在開頭即提到了Iceberg Water，講到它在北美的人氣達到了新的高度，其源頭是取自取自加拿大紐芬蘭的冰川。從全篇來看，本文以瓶裝水為論述的核心，說明其在當今社會的火爆程度，這與開頭所述Iceberg Water人氣達到新高的敘述意義一致。而在提到Iceberg Water之后的第二段，文章緊接著介紹了一位瓶裝水專業人士對瓶裝水流行原因的看法。由此來看，Iceberg Water很可能是一種瓶裝水，文章以它來開頭有引出論題的作用。
A說是一種冰水，B說是一種普通自來水，C說是一種瓶裝水，D說是一種礦物質水。
C是正確答案。
77. By saying “My dog could tell the difference between bottled and tap water” (Line 4 Para. 2), von Wiesenberger wants to convey the message that ________.
A) plain tap water is certainly unfit for drinking
B) bottled water is clearly superior to tap water
C) bottled water often appeals more to dogs taste
D) dogs can usually detect a fine difference in taste
這句話的意義必須結合上下文來理解。這句話出現在第二段，這一段的意思是：
Wiesenberger享有飲用水大師的稱號，且是北美不多的幾位飲用水評論家之一。他小時候曾居住在意大利、法國和瑞士較大的城市中，在這些地方，人們每天都要消費瓶裝水。他在那時就訂了一份飲用水雜志，留心記下他最喜愛的瓶裝水牌子�！拔业墓范寄芊殖銎垦b水跟自來水的區別。”他說道。
從這段描述中可以看出，這位飲用水大師自小就對瓶裝水興趣濃厚，甚至為了追蹤最喜愛的牌子特意保有一份水雜志。作者的這些敘述顯然傳達了一個信息：瓶裝水可謂是此人的至愛。那么在這種隱含意義下，他所說的瓶裝水與自來水的區別決不真正是二者的實在區別，而是要突出瓶裝水要優于自來水;連狗都能分辨這種區別，這是一種夸張說法，意在表明二者的差距之大。
A， 自來水當然不適合飲用。從全文給出的信息來看，自來水是適合引用的，句意本身錯誤，同時也不符合該句的真實含義。
B， 瓶裝水顯而易見地要優于自來水。此說法與前面的分析一致，是正確的。
C，瓶裝水常常更符合狗的口味。Wiesenberger提到狗只是為了起到夸張的效果，并不是瓶裝水真的更符合狗的口味。
D，狗一般能靠味覺發現細微的差別。此項犯的錯誤與C一樣。
78. The “fancier brands” (Line 3 Para. 5) refers to ________.
A) tap waterfromthe Thames RierB) famnus gins not sold in ordinary stres
C) PepsC聯’s Aquafana andCocamCml聡’S Dasani
D) expenive bottled wate2 職thimpressive nams
題目問fancie brands指的是俀么。
Fancir應該是fancy的比較級，fancy有“別臔、價格高昂的”的意思，frand指品牌。理覣它凷體的含義還是要看上下斏。耍#P#
這個詞組出現在A restaurant’s typical mark-up on wine is 100 to 150 percent, whereas on bottled water it’s often 300 to 500 percent. But since water is much cheaper than wine, and many of the fancier brands aren’t available in stores, most diners don’t notice or care一句中，意思是：飯店一般把酒價標高100%到150%，而瓶裝水常常會達到300%到500%。不過水要比酒便宜得多，同時許多fancier brands在商店里買不到，因此用餐者就沒有注意或者并不在乎。
從最后一句結論可以推測，fancier brands很有可能是更貴的水品牌，因為如果這些奢侈牌子在商店里買不到，人們就無從知道它的合理價格，即便到了飯店以高價挨宰(標高500%)，他們也并不知情，也就注意不到或不會在乎。只有這樣邏輯才能通順。四個選項分別是：
A， 源自泰晤士河的自來水
B， 不在普通商店中出售的名牌葡萄酒。
C，百事的Aquafina和可口可樂的Dasani。
D，擁有別致名字的昂貴瓶裝水。
四個選項中D符合上文的分析。
79. Why are some restaurants turning up the pressure to sell bottled water?
A) Bottled water brings in huge profits.
B) Competitionfromthe wine industry is intense.
C) Most diners find bottled water affordable.
D) Bottled water satisfied diners’ desire to fashionable
首先了解turn up the pressure的意思，turn up有“提高”的意思，如turn up the radio，提高收音機的音量。turn up the pressure就是加大壓力、加大力度的意思。這樣題意就是“一些飯店加大力度售賣瓶裝水的原因是什么”。
文中有As a result, some restaurants are turning up the pressure to sell bottled water一句，as a result是“所以、因此”的意思，說明前文已經說明了加大力度的原因，答案需要到前一段去找。
上一段首先提到飯店對銷售品牌瓶裝水的利潤垂涎三尺(restaurateurs salivate over the profits)，而后具體說明了其之所以能實現超額利潤的原因：消費者對瓶裝水合理價格水平一無所知。由此可以推斷，飯店大力售賣瓶裝水的原因就應該是高額利潤的誘使。
A，瓶裝水可以帶來巨額利潤。符合上面的分析。
B，來自酒業的競爭十分激烈。文中提到酒業(typical mark-up on wine is 100 to 150 percent)只是為了突出瓶裝水的利潤豐厚，沒有提到二者存在競爭問題。
C，大多數就餐者認為瓶裝水的.價格可以接受。文中提到就餐者對價格的反應時是這樣敘述的：most diners don’t notice or care，意思是他們不知道瓶裝水的真實價格，因此沒有注意或不在乎。但飯店老板不會因為自己商品的價格可以被消費者接受而熱衷于售賣，這個價格中含有暴利才是原因。
D，瓶裝水滿足了就餐者喜歡時尚的需求。文章最后一段解釋了瓶裝水流行的其他原因，其中有它滿足了our wish to appear cultivated，與D的說法稍有接近，但這是從消費者的角度進行的分析，不是飯店老板熱衷于售賣瓶裝水的原因。
80. According to passage, why is bottled water so popular?
A) It is much cheaper than wine.
B) It is considered healthier.
C) It appeals to more cultivated people.
D) It is more widely promoted in the market.
題目問根據文意瓶裝水為什么如此流行。
文章的最后一段對此做出了說明，直譯如下：
不算其銷售方式，飲用瓶裝水能夠滿足我們對健康的更高追求，滿足對更有教養的形象的追求，甚至對水的純凈度的追求。
從這段話可以看出，銷售方式(how it’s sold，即第五六、段的分析)是瓶裝水流行的一個因素，此外就是文末的三種因素：更高健康、更好形象和純凈度。
A認為原因是瓶裝水比酒便宜。這是第五段的內容：water is much cheaper than wine，不過這里提到水更便宜是為了解釋人們為何沒有注意到瓶裝水價格的虛高。
B認為原因是人們認為它更為健康，符合另三種因素的第一個：更高健康。
C認為原因是它能吸引更有教養的人。文中所說的對更有教養的形象的追求(our wish to appear cultivated)，是指一個人企望比以前的自己顯得更有教養，而不是瓶裝水對更有教養的人群的吸引力比對一般教養的人吸引力更大。
D認為原因是它在市場中得到了更大的推廣。瓶裝水得到了更大的推廣，其意思等同于瓶裝水流行，一個句子不能用它本身來解釋本身。

The Attitude toward Crisis
In our life, there is not always plain road and we may confront various crises such as disease, accident, lost the way and so on. Toward these crises, different people have different attitudes.
Some people choose to face it directly and bravely. They believe that the difficulties and cries, taking disease as example, can be defeat by their intelligence and bravery. Also the advanced high-tech can helpthem come over the crisis. While the others think that it is so big that the crisis can not be solved. So they give up to fight against it and yield without any effort.
As for me, we must face the crisis bravely and fight against it. For example, some students failed in one exam. Some cried and sad, but some one made up his mind to study hardfromthen on. I stand on the side of the latter. Only can you change the sorrow into power, you can be winner before the crisis.

Passage4
FEED THE BRAIN,BUT LESS SUGAR
While no single factor has been identified as the cause of Alzheimers it is thought that lifestyle choices,such as diet exercise and sleep habits can all have a significant impact on the fact,research by the Albert Einstein College of Medicine has,so far. suggested that lifestyle changes related to healthy ageing looks more promising than rug studies.
For the last decade or so,researchers have been exploring the link between our modern diets and the increasing prevalence of Alzheimer’s, specifically the connection between sugar and the disease. A study published in the New England Journal of Medicine demonstrated that even a mild elevation of blood sugar is associated with an elevated risk of dementia.
Previous research had shown a higher risk for diabetics in developing Alzheimers more recent research has shed further light on this ,finding an intricate link between insulin resistance and the bodies produce insulin that is necessary for the survival of brain cells,but this process goes awry when a toxic protein ,called ADDL,removes receptors form these cells and renders them insulin resistant. As the ADDLs accumulate,our memory can begin to deteriorate.
So,what should we be feeding our bodies ti give our brain the best change? A diet low in sugar and carbohydrates and high in healthy fats is essential. Opt for real food above processed options and try to keep added sugar levels to a minimum(ideally between 15 and 25 grams a day).Add plenty of good fats like avocados,raw nuts and coconut and other nut oils to the diet and try a high-quality probiotic to optimise the flora in the gut.
76. Which of the following is NOT mentioned as one of the causes of Alzheimers?
. B. Exercise habits.
【答案】C
【解析】細節理解題。由第一段第一句可知，“生活方式的選擇，如飲食，鍛煉和睡眠習慣， 都可能對這種風險產生重大影響�！保哉_選項是C。

A. We should research more on drugs.
should research more on lifestyle changes related to healthy ageing.
should promise to have more drug studies.
should promise to change lifestyles of whose health is ageing.
【答案】B
【解析】細節理解題。由第一段可知，“與健康老齡化相關的生活方式的改變看起來‘比藥物研究史更有前途’”，也就是說，生活方式對健康老齡化的影響要比藥物影響大，所以正確選項是B。
78. What’s the relationship between blood sugar and risk of dementia according to Paragraph 2?
have positive correction. have negative correction.
have no relationship. have no obvious relationship.
【答案】A
【解析】細節埋解題。由第二段中“A study published in the New England Jourmal of Medicine demonstrated that even a mild elevation of blood sugar is associated with an elevated risk of dementia.發表在新英格蘭醫學雜志上的一項研究表明， 即使是輕微的血糖升高也會增加患癡呆癥的風險�！笨芍巧邔夏臧V呆產生的是正相關，即“血糖越高，患老年癡呆的風險越大”，所以正確選項是A。
79. Which of the following statement about insulinis TRUE?
can help the survival of brain cells.
can resist the aging of brain cells.
can help resits ADDLs.
can deteriorate our memory.
【答案】A
【解析】細節理解題由第三段的第二句可知，“.Our bodies produce insulin that is necessary for the survival of brain cells, 我們的身體產生的胰島素對于腦細胞的存活是必要的”，所以正確選項是A。
following are all good fats EXCEPT
nuts C. coconut
【答案】D
【解析】細節理解題。最后一段“Add plenty of good fats like avocados,raw nuts and coconut and other nut oils...在飲食中加入大量的有益脂肪，如鱷梨、生堅果、椰子和其他堅果油”可知，鱷梨，生堅果，椰子都屬了有益脂肪。
Passage 4
【譯文】：
喂飽大腦，但少吃糖
雖然沒有任何一個因素被認為是導致阿爾茨病的原因，但人們認為，生活方式的選擇，如飲食，鍛煉和睡眠習慣，都可能對這種風險產生重大影響。事實上，到目前為止，阿爾伯特愛因斯坦醫學院的研究表明，與健康老齡化相關的生活方式的改變看起來“比藥物研究更有前途”。
在過去十年左右的時間里，研究人員一直在探索現代飲食與老年癡呆日益增長之間的聯系，特別是糖與疾病之間的聯系。發表在新英格蘭醫學雜志上的一項研究表明，即使是輕微的血糖升高也會增加患癡呆癥的風險。
先前的研究已經表明，糖尿病患者在阿爾茨海茨病的發展中有更高的風險，最近的研究進一步揭示了這一點，發現了胰島素抵抗和大腦之間的復雜聯系。我們的身體產生的胰島素對于腦細胞的存活是必要的，但是當個叫做ADDL的有毒蛋白質從這些細胞中移除受體并使它們產生胰島素抵抗時，這個過程就會出錯。隨著ADDL累積，我們的記憶可能開始惡化。
那么，我們應該給我們的身體提供什么來給我們的大腦帶來最好的改變呢?低糖、低碳水化合物和高健康脂肪的飲食見必不可少的。選擇“真正的”食物高于加工的選擇，并盡量將糖的含量保持在最低限度(理想情況下是每天15到25克)。在飲食中加入大量的有益脂肪，如鱷梨，生堅果、椰子和其他堅果油，并嘗試高質量的益生菌來優化腸道菌群。

Whats more，there is D0denyingthat competition in todays society is so fierce that everyone should learn all kinds of knowledge to meet its demands. In theend, we must admit that we can set a good example to our children and encourage them to study hard if we insist on lifelong leaning.
As for as I am concerned,lifelong learning is a good phenomenonfromwhich we can benefit a lot. It should be advocated vigorously, As individuals, we should pay enough attention to it, seize every opportunity to learn, and make it bring much more influence to us.

Questions 24 to 27 are based on the following passage.
Humans have long turned to the dog for its nose, especially in its ability to hunt, track missing people, and search for drugs- But there is a new challenge： Bomb-detecting dogs now have to learn to find theincreasingly common Improvised Explosive Devices (IEDs)(臨時組裝的爆炸裝置）that can be assembledfrommaterials not dangerous by themselves. “So we’re now asking dogs not just to find a needle in a haystack (干草堆）一 now the problem is more like saying to the dog we need you to find any sharp object in the haystack,” says Clive Wynne，a professor at Arizona State University.
Wynne directs the study that develops methods to train dogs to identify a wide variety of ingredientsthat could be used to make bombs. The dogs not only have to detect whether explosive materials are present, they also have to determine if the chemicals they smellcould combine to form an explosive mixture. The dogs need to learn thatwhen combined with other elements, even sugar could be used in a bomb. “we want the dogs to grasp the concept of ‘this might explode’”.
Wynne says the big problem is that IEDs are just that---improvisedand completely unsteady. A dog’s nose can be over a thousand times more powerful than a human’s nose. Some agencies spent billions of dollars over the last 15 years trying to create a technical replacement for the nose of the dog, and at theendof all that they just had to admit “No, we cannot get close”. Wynne thinks his team can develop bomb sniffing (嗅，聞）dogs that can detect IEDs at a small part of that price. All it takes is patience.
24.According to the passage，the new task of bomb-detecting dogs is to learn______.
A. to detect materials that can be used to make bombs
B. to recognize materials that look like bombs
C. to search for various needles in a haystack
D. to identify drugs in a large pile of materials
25.The word “ingredients”（Line 2，Para. 2) is closest in meaning to_______.
A. methods B. dangers C. chances D. elements
26. According to the passage，a dog’s nose______?
A. Can’t be improved
B. is not replaceable
C. can be as powerful as a human nose
D. is equal to a technical machine
27. Why is it difficult to train dogs to detect IEDs, according to Wynne?
A. Dogs are unwilling to sniff IEDs.
B. IEDs can be replaced by other things.
C. It’s too expensive to get dogs trained
D. IEDs can be madefromvarious materials.
Questions 28 to 31 are based on the following passage.
Food writer Bee Wilson has a message of hope for parents struggling to get their children to eat vegetables: “As parents, we have a far greater power than we think we have to form children’s tastes,” says Wilson.
In her new book, First Bite, Wilson examines howgenetics(遺傳), culture, memory and early feeding patterns contribute to our food preferences. She says that a child’s ability to judge good food can be formed even before birth. And this insight can be helpful for parents who want their children to eat well and healthfully.
“One of the main things we know about taste is that liking is a consequence of familiarity，so the things that our mothers eat，even before we’re born，affect the way well respond to those flavors. When we later encounter them, they seem familiar. “There have been remarkable studies done showing that if someone eats a lot of garlic when shes pregnant, the baby will grow up to love garlic.
Wilson, a mother of three, notes that babies are most open to trying new flavors between the ages of four and seven months. But, Wilson adds, even if parents miss introducing a food during the so-called “flavor window”，all hope is not lost.
“It not that the flavor window is shut and we can never learn to love bitter green vegetables. Humans can learn to love new flavors at any age,” Wilson says. “One of the amazing things about our relationship with food is how malleable (可塑的'）it is. But we dont usually as adults give ourselves an opportunity to change.”
28.According to Bee Wilson，a child’s food tastes________.
A.cant be changed by anyone
B.can be influenced by parents
C.will not develop even if he eats a lot of vegetables
D.will stay the same even if he eats well and healthfully
29.The word “preferences”（Line 2，Para. 2) is closest in meaning to_____.
A.ability B. flavor C. liking D. taste
30.Which life period of a baby is referred to as the flavor window?
A. The time between 4 and 7 months of age.
B. The period before a baby is 3 years old.
C. The days when a baby tries new flavors.
D. The months when a baby eats vegetables.
31.What can we concludefromthe passage?
A. We can never learn to love bitter green vegetables.
B. We can always change our food tastes if we choose to.
C. When the flavor window is shut, our food taste is formed.
D. Parents often miss the chance to introduce foods to kids.
Questions 32 to 35 are based on the following passage.
Earth Day was the brainchild of Gaylord Nelson, a United States SenatorfromWisconsin. After seeing the environmental destruction caused by the 1969 oil spill in Santa Barbara, California, Nelson wanted to find a way to raise public consciousness of the need for greater environmental protections.
The result was the first Earth Day on April 22, 1970. On that day, over 20 million Americans took part in a variety of rallies(集會），meetings，demonstrations and activities， all targeted at highlighting the need for protecting Earth and our environment for future generations. Thousands of colleges and universities also participated. Members of different groups learned theyshared common values.
Earth Day was a tremendous success. It has nowbecome a global phenomenon. In 1990，for example, over 200 million people in 141 countrieswere organized to bring environmental issues, especially recycling, to the forefront of global consciousness. Today, Earth Day campaigns continue to publicize important environmental issues, such as global warming, dean energy, and recycling.
If you’re wondering what you can do to make Earth a better place，participating in
Earth Day activities is a great place to start- By attending a rally，meeting, or demon-station, you can learn about the environmental problems facing ourplanet. To really make a difference, though, you need to turn the knowledge you gain into action. Volunteering for an environmental group or helpingto organize an Earth Day eventto educate others is one way to make a difference. More importantly, however, you can make changes in your daily life. Here are a few suggestions：
Conserve energy and natural resources! Turn off the lights when you leave a room. Take shorter showers. Turn down the thermostat(恒溫器）in winter and turn it up during the summer.
Plant a tree! Trees produce oxygen and remove carbon dioxidefromthe air. They will
benefit you and future generations.
Reduce, reuse, and recycle! The amount of trash humans produce increases each year.
Do your part by reducing the amount of stuff you buy，reusing the stuff you already have, and recycling as much as possible.
32. Earth Day was set up in order to______.
A.help California recoverfromthe 1969 oil spill
B.help Nelson realize his dream ofbecoming a senator
C.remember those who suffered greatly in the oil spill
D.improve the publics awareness of environmental protection

Part III Reading Comprehension (40 points)
Task 1
Linkup ,the APP Research and Development Company, has announced it will give more than twenty-five million dollars in money and investments to help the poor. The company says the effort involves using the power of information and technology to help people improve their lives.
James Lee works for Linkup.org—— the part ofthe company that gives money to good causes. He saidthe company’s first project will help identify where infectious (傳染性的) diseases are developing. In Southeast Asia and Africa, for example, Google.orgwill work with partners to strengthen early-warning systems and take action against growing health threats.
Linkup.org’s second project will invest in ways to help small and medium-sized businesses grow. James Lee says microfinance (小額信貸) is generally small, short-term loans that create few jobs. Instead, he says Google.orgwants to develop ways to bring investors and business owners together to create jobs and improve economic growth.
Linkup.orgwill also give money to help two climate-change programs announced earlier this year. One of these programs studies ways to make renewable (再生的) energy less costly than coal-based energy. The other is examining the efforts being made to increase the use of electric cars.

Task 2
If you think 3D printing is only good for making delicate paperweights(壓紙器), then you’re pretty much right. However, a group of Dutch architects have already begun 3D printing an entire canal house in Amsterdam. Is the first 3D printed house a gimmick(喙頭)？Definitely! Is it an experiment that pushes the possibilities for 3D printing technology and architecture? Maybe!
3D Print Canal House is the brainchild of DUS Architects. “KamerMaker,” Dutch for “room maker”, is their giant printer built inside a shipping container. Just a few weeks ago, KamerMaker began printing plastic furniture and walls at an empty canal-side lot in northern Amsterdam. Smaller versions of the unusualhoneycomb walls have been tested on normal desktop printers, and everyone just needed to scale it up (按比例放大). Well, if only it were that easy.
“The printer did not always manage to spread the plastic evenly(均勻的)， making some of the ribs of thehoneycomb structure of the block uneven,”reported ARN(Australian Radio Network) to the surprise of no one who has used a 3D printer. But the architects remain optimistic. The first few printed blocks are means to be test prices as they improve the process.
It takes about a week to print a 3-meter high block right now. The project’s leaders hope to eventually get that down to two hours and finish the first of 12 rooms in a year, and the entire house in less than 3 years.
Finally, 3D Print Canal House is an architecture research project, one that is very much being conducted in the public eye. You can actually buy tickets to visit theconstruction sitefor 2.50 Euros.
The top floors willbecome more decorated, for example, as newer techniques are used. They’ll explore the possibilities of 3D printing, likehoneycomb walls or an entire room recycled, redesigned, and built again. Nobody’s going to move into 3D printed house soon, but, if anyone ever dose, something might be learnedfromthis experiment by the email.
26. What have the Dutch architects begun to use 3D printer to do according to the passage?___
A. To make heavy paperweights.
B. To print the unusualhoneycomb.
C. To print an entire canal house.
D. To build a shipping container
27. Where did KamerMaker begin printing plastic furniture and walls several weeks ago?
A. It was inside a shipping container in Amsterdam.
B. It was at an empty canal-side lot in northern Amsterdam.
C. It was in a canal house in Amsterdam.
D. It was in a room.
28. What is the weakness of the 3D printer mentioned in the passage?
A. It cannot always spread the plastic evenly.
B. It needs to be shortened.
C. It cannot make the ribs of thehoneycomb structure.
D. It can print anything smoothly.
29. How long will it take for the 3D printer to make the canal house in Amsterdam?
A. A week
B. Two hours
C. More than 3 years
D. Less than 3 years
30. Which of the following statements is WRONG according to the passage?
A. This canal house is being built in the public eye.
B. The top floors of the canal house will be more decorated.
C. Someone is going to move into this canal house soon.
D. One can visit theconstruction sitefor 2.50 Euros.
Task 3
Let’s say you have a certain amount of money you’ve saved up for holiday gifts. If you want to get something for everyone on your list, you can’t spendmuch on any single purchase.
But have you ever heard the expression "time is money "? There’s some truth to it! We “spend” time just like we “spend” money, and in both cases, we have to spendit wisely if we want to get something good in return. Just like you might get an allowance of 10 dollars a week. Or 38 dollars for a trip to the mall, each day we are given 24 hours of time.
The earliest way to help you get everything done to budget that time! This is all about:
-Examining your Have-to’s and Want-to’s.
-Examining your how much time your Have-to’s and Want-to’s will take up.
-Working out a plan that let’s you speed the amount of time on each one.
Once you have this plan, a “time budget”, you’ll be better able to create a Daily Schedule and Weekly Planner. Of course, everyday isn’t exactly the same as the next, so it may help you to make a different time budget for different days.
Let’s look at a sample time budget on Wednesday:
Sleep 8 hours
Shower, dressing, ready for school 1/2 hour
Breakfast 1/2 hour
Bus for school 1/2 hour
School 7 hours
Bus home 1/2 hour
Soccer practice 2 hours
Household chores 1/2 hour
Homework 2 hours
Dinner 1/2 hour
TV time 1 hour
Reading/personal time 1 hour
Total time spent 24 hours
Great! That day’s budget works out, because it all adds up 24 hours. If the total came out to be more than that, we would have choose something to cut down or dropfromthat day. When you make these types of decision, you choose priorities.
Task 4
[A]Interest in pursuing international careers has risen in recent years strengthened by permanent personnel shortages that arecausing companies to search beyond their home borders for talent.
[B] Professionals seek career experience outside of their home countries for a variety of reasons. They may feel the need to recharge their batteries with a new challenge. They may want a position with more responsibility that encourages creativity. Or they may wish to expose their children to another culture, and the opportunity to learn a second language.
[C]When applying for a job, one usually has to submit a resume or curriculum vitae (CV). The two terms generally mean the same thing: a one--or two--page document describingones educational qualifications and professional experience. However, guidelines for preparing a resume are constantly changing. The best advice is to find out what is appropriate regardingthe company culture, the country culture, and the culture of the person making the hiring decision. The challenge will be to include two or more cultures in one document. The following list is a good place to start.
[D]“Educational requirements differfromcountry to country. In almost every case of
cross--border job hunting, just stating the title of your degree will not be an adequate description. Provide the reader with details about your studies and any related experience. "
[E]Pay attention to the resume format you use-chronological or reverse-chronological order. Chronological order means listing your oldest work experience first. Reverse-chronological order means listing your current or most recent experience first. Most countries have preferences about which format is most acceptable. If you find no specific guidelines, the general preference is for the reverse-chronological format."
[F]If you are submitting your resume in English, find out if the receiver uses British English or American English because there are changes between the two versions. For example,university education is often referred to astertiary education in the United Kingdom, but this term is almost never used in the United States. A reader who is unfamiliar with these changes may assume that your resume contains errors.
31. The author believes that an individual who applies to work overseas seeks
either his own or his childrens development.
32. Whenit comes to resume writing, it is best to take cultural factors into
consideration.
33. According to the authors last piece of advice, the applicants should be aware of
the differences between the changes of English.
34. Companies are hiring more foreign employees because they have difficulty
finding qualified personnel at home.
35. When writing about qualifications, applicants are advised to provide a detailed
description of their study and work experiences.

Unthinkable as it may be,humanity,every last person,could someday be wiped from the face of the Earth. We have learned to worry about asteroids(小行星)and super volcanoes,but the more likely.26according to Nick Bostrom,a professor of philosophy at Oxford,is that we humans will destroy ourselves.
Professor Bostrom,who directs Oxfords Future of Humanity Institute,has argued over the course of several papers that human27risks are poorly understood and,worse still,28underestimated by society.Some of these existential risks are fairly well known,especially the natural ones.But others are29or even exotic. Most worrying to Bostrom is the subset of existential risks that30from human technology,a subset that he expects to grow in number and potency over the next century.
Despite his concerns about the risks31to humans by technological progress,Bostrom is no luddite(科 技進步反對者).In fact,he is a longtime32of trans-humanism—the effort to improve the human condition, and even human nature itself,through technological means.In the long run he sees technology as a bridge,a bridge we humans must cross with great care,in order to reach new and better modes of being.In his work, Bostrom uses the tools of philosophy and mathematics,in33probability theory,to try and determine how we as a,34might achieve this safe passage.What follows is my conversation with Bostrom about some of the most interesting and worrying existential risks that humanity might.35in the decades and centuries to come,and about what we can do to make sure we outlast them.
A)advocateI)particulan
B)ariseJ)posed
C)emphasizecK)scenarig
D)encounterL)severely
E)essentialM)shrewdly
F)evaporationN)species
G)extinctionO)variety

San Francisco Has Become One Huge Metaphor for Economic Inequality in America
A)The fog still chills the morning air and the cable cars still climb halfway to the stars.Yet on the ground,the Bay area has changed greatly since singer Tony Bennet left his heart here.Silicon Valley and the tech industry have led the region into a period of unprecedented wealth and innovation.But existing political and land limits have caused an alarming housing crisis and astronomical rise in social and economic difference.
B)While the residents of most cities display pride and support for their home industries,drastic market distortions in the San Francisco Bay Area have created boiling resentment in the region towards the tech industry.A vocal minority is even calling on officials to punish those who are benefitting from the economic and housing boom.If this boom and its consequences are not resolved,a drastic increase in social and economic difference may have a profound impact on the region for generations.A history and analysis of this transformation may hold invaluable insights about the opportunities.Perils of tech cities are currently being cultivated across the US,and indeed around the world.
C)According to a recent study,San Francisco ranks first in California for economic difference.The average income of the top 1%of households in the city averages $3.6 million.This is 44 times the average income of those at the bottom,which stands at $81,094.The top 1%of the San Francisco peninsulas share of total income now extends to 30.8%of the regions income.This was a dramatic jump from 1989,where it stood at 15.8%.
D)The regions economy has been fundamentally transformed by the technology industry springing from Silicon Valley.Policies pushed by Mayor Ed Lee provided tax breaks for tech companies to set up shop along the citys long-neglected Mid-Market area.The city is now home to Twitter,Uber,Airbnb,Pinterest,Dropbox and others.In short,the Bay Area has become a global magnet for those with specialized skills,which has in turn helped fuel economic enthusiasm,and this economic growth has reduced unemployment to 3.4%,an admirable feat.
E)In spite of all that,the strength of the recent job growth,combined with policies that have traditionally limited housing development in the city and throughout the peninsula,did not help ease the affordability crisis.In 2015 alone,the Bay Area added 64,000 in jobs.In the same year,only 5,000 new homes were built.
F)With the average house in the city costing over $1.25 million and average flat prices over $1.11 million,the minimum qualifying income to purchase a house has increased to $254,000.Considering that the average household income in the city currently stands at around $80,000,it is not an exaggeration to say that the dream of home ownership is now beyond the grasp of the vast majority of todays people who rent.
G)For generations,the stability and prosperity of the American middle class has been anchored by home ownership.Studies have consistently shown that the value of land has overtaken overall income growth,thus providing a huge advantage to property owners as a vehicle of wealth building.When home prices soar above the reach of most households,the gap between the rich and the poor dramatically increases.
H)If contributing factors leading to housing becoming less than affordable are not resolved over multiple generations,a small elite will control a vast share of the countrys total wealth.The result?A society where the threat of class warfare would loom large.A societys level of happiness is tied less to measures of quantitative wealth and more to measures of qualitative wealth.This means that how a person judges their security in comparison to their neighborshas more of an impact on their happiness than their objective standard of living.At the same time,when a system no longer provides opportunities for the majority to participate in wealth building,it not only robs those who are excluded from opportunities,but also deprives them of their dignity.
I) San Francisco and the Bay Area have long been committed to values which embrace inclusion and rejection of mainstream culture.To see these values coming apart so publicly adds insult to injury for a region once defined by its progressive social fabric.In the face of resentment,it is human to want revenge.But deteriorating policies such as heavily taxing technology companies or real estate developers are not likely to shift the balance.
J)The housing crisis is caused by two primary factors:the growing desirability of the Bay Area as a place to live due to its excellent economy,and our limited housing stock.Although the city is experiencing an unprecedented boom in new housing,more units are sorely needed.Protection policies were originally designed to suppress bad development and boost historic preservation in our urban areas.Now,too many developers are experiencing excessive delays.Meanwhile,there are the land limitations of the Bay Area to consider.The region is surrounded by water and mountains.Local governments need to aid development as well.This means increasing housing density throughout the region and building upwards while streamlining the approval process.
K)Real estate alone will not solve the problem,of course.Transportation,too,needs to be updated and infrastructure extended to link distant regions to Silicon Valley and the city.We need to build an effective high-speed commuting system linking the high-priced and crowded Bay Area with the low-priced and low- density Central Valley.This would dramatically reduce travel times.And based on the operating speeds of hovering trains used in countries such as Japan or Spain,high-speed rail could shorten the time to travel between San Francisco and Californias capital,Sacramento,or from Stockton to San Jose,to under 30 minutes.This system would bring once distant regions within reasonable commute to heavy job centers. The city also needs to existing transportation routes combined with smart home-building policies that dramatically increase housing density in areas surrounding high-speed rail stations.By doing so,we will be able to build affordable housing within acceptable commuting distances for a significant bulk of the workforce.
L)Our threatening housing crisis forces the difficult question of what type of society we would like to be.Will it be one where the elite command the vast bulk of wealth and regional culture is defined by an aggressive business world?We were recently treated to a taste of the latter,when local tech employee Justin Keller wrote an open letter to the city complaining about having to see homeless people on his way to work.
M)It doesnt have to be this way.But solutions need to be implemented now,before angry crowds grow from a nuisance to serious concern.It may take less than you might think.And in fact,the solutions to our housing crisis are already fairly clear.We need to increase the density of housing units.We need to use existing technology to shorten travel times and break the land limits.There is a way to solve complex social and economic problems without abandoning social responsibility.This is the Bay Areas opportunity to prove that it can innovate more than just technology.
36.San Francisco city government offered tax benefits to attract tech companies to establish operations in a less developed area.
37.The fast rise in the prices of land and houses increases the economic inequality among people.
38.San Francisco has been found to have the biggest income gap in California between the rich and the poor.
39.The higher rate of employment,combined with limited housing supply,did not make it any easier to buy a bouse.
40.When people compare their own living standard with others,it has a greater impact on their sense of contentment.
41.Improved transport networks connecting the city to distant outlying areas will also help solve the housing crisis.
42.Average incomes in the Bay Area make it virtually impossible for most tenant families to buy a home.
43.Innovative solutions to social and economic problems should be introduced before it is too late.
44.Residents of the San Francisco Bay Area strongly resent the tech industry because of the economic inequality it has contributed to.
45.One way to deal with the housing crisis is for the government to simplify approval procedures for housing projects.
Section C
Directions:There are 2 passages in this section.Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished statements.For each of them there are four choices marked A),B),C)and D).You should decide on the best choice and mark the corresponding letter on Answer Sheet 2 with a single line through the centre.
Passage One
Questions 46 to 50 are based on the following passage.
The suggestion that people should aim for dietary diversity by trying to eat a variety of foods has been a basic public health recommendation for decades in the United States and elsewhere.Now,however,experts are warning that aiming for a diverse diet may actually lead to just eating more calories,and,thus,to obesity.One issue is that people may not interpret "variety"the way nutritionists intend.This problem is highlighted by new research conducted by the American Heart Association.Researchers reviewed all the evidence published related to dietary diversity and saw a correlation between dietary diversity and a greater intake of both healthy and unhealthy foods.This had implications for obesity,as researchers found a greater prevalence of obesity amongst people with a greater dietary diversity.
One author of the new study explained that their findings contradict standard dietary advice,as most dietary guidelines around the world include a statement of eating a variety of foods.But this advice does not seem to be supported by science,possibly because there is little agreement about the meaning of “dietary diversity,”which is not clearly and consistently defined.Some experts measure dietary diversity by counting the number of food groups eaten,while others look at the distribution of calories across individual foods,and still others measure how different the foods eaten are from each other.
Although the findings of this new study contradict standard dietary advice,they do not come as a surprise to all of the researchers involved.Dr.Rao,one of the study authors,noted that,after 20 years of experience in the field of obesity,he has observed that people who have a regimented lifestyle and diet tend to be thinner and healthier than people with a wide variety of consumption.This anecdotal evidence matches the conclusions of the study,which found no evidence that dietary diversity promotes healthy body weight or optimal eating patterns, and limited evidence shows that eating a variety of foods is actually associated with consuming more calories, poor eating patterns and weight gain.Further,there is some evidence that a greater variety of food options in a single meal may delay peoples feeling of fullness and actually increase how much they eat.
Based on their findings,the researchers endorse a diet consisting of a limited number of healthy foods such as vegetables,fruits,grains,and poultry.They also recommend that people simultaneously endeavor to restrict consumption of sweets,sugar and red meat.The researchers stress,however,that their dietary recommendations do not imply dietary diversity is never positive,and that,in the past,diversity in diets of whole,unprocessed food may have actually been very beneficial.
46.What has been a standard piece of dietary advice for decades?
A)People should diversify what they eat.
B)People should have a well-balanced diet.
C)People should cultivate a healthy eating habit.
D)People should limit calorie intake to avoid obesity.
47.What did the new research by the American Heart Association find?
A)Unhealthy food makes people gain weight more easily.
B)Dietary diversity is positively related to good health.
C)People seeking dietary diversity tend to eat more.
D)Big eaters are more likely to become overweight.
48.What could help to explain the contradiction between the new findings and the common public health recommendation?
A)There is little consensus on the definition of dietary diversity.
B)The methods researchers use to measure nutrition vary greatly.
C)Conventional wisdom about diet is seldom supported by science.
D)Most dietary guidelines around the world contradict one another.
49.What did Dr.Rao find after 20 years of research on obesity?
A)There is no clear definition of optimal eating patterns.
B)Diversified food intake may not contribute to health.
C)Eating patterns and weight gain go hand in hand.
D)Dietary diversity promotes healthy body weight.
50.What does the passage say about people who eat a great variety of food?
A)They are more likely to eat foods beneficial to their health.
B)They dont have any problems getting sufficient nutrition.
C)They dont feel they have had enough until they overeat.
D)They tend to consume more sweets,sugar and red meat.
Passage Two
Questions 51 to 55 are based on the following passage.
The ability to make inferences from same and different,once thought to be unique to humans,is viewed as a cornerstone of abstract intelligent thought.A new study,however,has shown that what psychologists call same- different discrimination is present in creatures generally seen as unintelligent:newborn ducklings(小鴨) .
The study,published Thursday in Science,challenges our idea of what it means to have a birdbrain,said Edward Wasserman,an experimental psychologist at the University of lowa who wrote an independent review of the study
“In fact,birds are extremely intelligent and our problem pretty much lies in figuring out how to get them to talkto us,or tell us how smart they really are,"he said.
Antone Martinho and Alex Kacelnik,co-authors of the new paper,devised a clever experiment to better test bird intelligence
First,they took 1-day-old ducklings and exposed them to a pair of moving objects.The two objects were either the same or different in shape or color.Then they exposed each duckling to two entirely new pairs of moving objects.
The researchers found that about 70%of the ducklings preferred to move toward the pair of objects that had the same shape or color relationship as the first objects they saw.A duckling that was first shown two green spheres,in other words,was more likely to move toward a pair of blue spheres than a mismatched pair of orange and purple spheres.
Ducklings go through a rapid learning process called imprinting shortly after birth—its what allows them to identify and follow their mothers.
These findings suggest that ducklings use abstract relationships between sensory inputs like color,shape, sounds and odor to recognize their mothers,said Dr.Kacelnik.
By studying imprinting,the authors of this study have shown for the first time that an animal can learn relationships between concepts without training,said Jeffrey Katz,an experimental psychologist at Auburn University who was not involved in the study.
Previous studies have suggested that other animals,including pigeons,dolphins,honeybees and some primates (靈長類動物) ,can discern same from different,but only after extensive training.
Adding ducklings to the list—particularly untrained newborn ducklings-suggests that the ability to compare abstract concepts“is far more necessary to a wider variety of animalssurvival than we previously thought,”Dr.Martinho said.He believes the ability is so crucial because it helps animals consider context when identifying objects in their environment.
Its clear from this study and others like it that “animals process and appreciate far more of the intricacies in their world than weve ever understood,"Dr.Wasserman said."We are in a revolutionary phase in terms of our ability to understand the minds of other animals.”
51.In what way were humans thought to be unique?
A)Being capable of same-different discrimination.
B)Being able to distinguish abstract from concrete.
C)Being a major source of animal intelligence.
D)Being the cornerstone of the creative world.
52.What do we learn from the study published in Science?
A)Our understanding of the bird world was biased.
B)Our communication with birds was far from adequate.
C)Our knowledge about bird psychology needs updating.
D)Our conception of birdsintelligence was wrong.
53.What did the researchers discover about most ducklings from their experiment?
A)They could associate shape with color.
B)They could tell whether the objects were the same.
C)They preferred colored objects to colorless ones.
D)They reacted quickly to moving objects.
54.What was novel about the experiment in the study reported in Science?
A)The ducklings were compared with other animals.
B)It was conducted by experimental psychologists.
C)The animals used received no training.
D)It used a number of colors and shapes.
55.What do we learn from Dr.Wassermans comment on the study of animal minds at the end of the passage?
A)Research methods are being updated.
B)It is getting more and more intricate.
C)It is attracting more public attention.
D)Remarkable progress is being made.

People are now increasingly aware of the challenges in making a decision when faced with too many choices.We are faced with various choices since our childhood, such as choosing friends,schools,careers and so on.Different choices will surely bring different lives.Therefore,it is of great significance to make decisions carefully.
From my perspective,there are both positive and negative aspects no matter what choice is made.Take us college students as an example.We are about to graduate and will face a dilemma of choosing whether to take the postgraduate entrance exam or hunt for jobs after graduation.On the one hand,pursuing postgraduate study can help us improve our academic level and lay a solid foundation for our future career development,while also requiring a lot of time and effort.On the other hand,going to work allows you to enter the workplace earlier and gain practical experience,as well as a certain amount of money.But in an increasingly competitive society,your career development may be limited by not having a distinguished educational background.
In short,any decision has two sides.We need to take our own actual situation into account in order to make a wiser choice.

Investors can _51_ money simply by loaning it. The money they loan is called capital. Security (擔保) is an expensive item which the borrower mortgages (抵押) to the investor to show that he intends to _52_ the debt. The way investors make money on loans is to charge interest. Interest is money that _53_ pay to investors for the use of their money. Interest is usually a certain percentage of the capital. Investors sometimes _54 ten percent or more interest per year. The interest may be calculated daily, monthly, or yearly. The interest must be _55_ before the capital can be repaid. If the interest is not _56_ the agreed rate, the interest is added _57_ the capital. Then the borrower has _58_ pay interest on the unpaid interest _59_ on the capital.
