Mark asked, “Do you think they'll let me play?” Mark's father knew that few boys would want someone like Mark, mentally and physically disabled, on their team, but the father still approached to ask the boys if Mark could play.They exchanged glances with each other and said, “We'll try to put him in to bat.”
Mark struggled over to the team's bench and his father had a small tear in his eye and warmth in heart.The boys saw the father's joy at his son being accepted.
In the bottom of the final inning, Mark was scheduled to be at bat.Everyone knew that a hit was almost impossible.The first pitch (投) came and Mark missed.The pitcher again took a few steps forward to throw the ball softly towards Mark.As the pitch came in, Mark swung at the ball and hit a slow ground ball right back to the pitcher.
The pitcher could have easily thrown the ball to the first baseman, but he just threw the ball right over the head of the first baseman, beyond the reach of all teammates.The audience and the players from both teams started screaming, “Mark, run to first!” Never in his life had Mark ever run that far but made it to first base, wide-eyed and shocked.
By the time Mark rounded towards second base, the smallest guy on their team, who had a chance to be the hero for his team for the first time, understood the pitcher's intentions and he too intentionally threw the ball high and far over the third baseman's head.
All were screaming.“Mark, run to third.” As Mark rounded third, all were on their feet, crying, “Mark, run home!” Mark ran to home, stepped on the home base and was cheered as the hero who won the game for his team.Tears rolled down the father's cheeks.
That day, the boys from both teams helped bring true love and humanity into this world.
24.Why did Mark's father, not expecting much, still asked if Mark could join the team?
A.Because he noticed some of the boys on the field were friendly.
B.Because he knew some of the boys on the field knew Mark well.
C.Because he understood Mark did need a feeling of being accepted.
D.Because he guessed Mark's disability would affect the boys' decision.
25.What does the underlined word “intentions” in Paragraph 5 refer to?
A.The pitcher wanted to help Mark win the game.
B.The pitcher pretended to throw the ball high and far.
C.The pitcher looked forward to winning the game for his team.
D.The pitcher had intended to throw the ball to the first baseman.
26.Which has nothing to do with Mark's becoming the hero for his team?
A.Some of the opposing players ran to help him.
B.The pitcher did not throw the ball to the first baseman.
C.The opposing players failed to stop his running to home.

When robots and humans interact in a shared environment, it is important for them to move in ways that prevent conflicts or accidents.To reduce the risk, roboticists have developed numerous techniques that monitor an environment, predict the future actions of humans, identify safe trajectories (轨迹) for a robot and control its movements accordingly.
Predicting human behavior and movements, however, can be incredibly challenging.Determining the future movements of a robot, on the other hand, could be far easier.If human users could anticipate the movements of robots and the effects these will have on the surrounding environment, they should then be able to easily adapt their actions in order to avoid accidents.
With this in mind, researchers at Kyushu University in Japan recently created a near-future perception system named Previewed Reality that allows human users to forecast future changes in their environment, which could then inform their decisions and guide their actions.This system compiles a data-set containing information about the position of objects, humans and robots within the same environment, to then produce simulations (模拟) of events that could take place in the near future.These simulations are presented to human users via Virtual Reality (VR) or Augmented Reality (AR) headsets.
To collect information about the position of different objects, robots, and humans in a shared environment, the researchers used a number of strategically placed sensors, including optical trackers that monitored the movements of objects or robots, and a RGB-D camera which mainly tracked human actions.The data gathered by the sensors was then fed to a motion planner and a dynamics simulator.Combining these two system components allowed the researchers to forecast changes in a given environment and synthesize (合成) images of events that are likely to occur in the near future, from the viewpoint of a specific human.Human users could then view these synthesized images simply through a VR headset or an AR display.
“This system provides human-friendly communication between a human and a robotic system,” the researchers explained.In their next studies, they plan to expand and simplify the perception system, for instance by creating a lighter and more affordable version that can be accessed on smartphones or other portable devices.
28.Why did the researchers develop the system?
A.To predict future changes in human behavior.
B.To record developments in the field of robotics.
C.To enhance safety of human-robot interactions.
D.To make good use of virtual reality technology.
29.What is special about Previewed Reality?
A.It simulates near-future events via VR headsets.
B.It enables human users to perceive future events.
C.It guides robots to track humans' movements easily.
D.It helps determine the location information of objects.
30.What is Paragraph 4 mainly about?
A.Functions of various sensors.
B.New ways to synthesize images.
C.The structure of Previewed Reality.
D.The working process of Previewed Reality.
31.What might the researchers do in the future?
A.Promote the new version through advertising.
B.Test this perception system with smartphones.
C.Apply some new techniques to robotic systems.
D.Make the system accessible on portable devices.
D
There are some things money can't buy.Education, however, does not appear to be among them—at least as measured by performance on international exams.A new study by Harvard University offers strong evidence that the wealth of a country affects exam results just as much as the wealth of a pupil's household does.On average, pupils in wealthy countries obtain vastly higher test scores than those in developing ones.
Evaluating test scores around the world is harder than it sounds.Although pupils in the rich world mostly take one of a few big international exams, many developing countries rely on regional tests, making apples-to-apples comparisons impossible.
Researchers organized an exam in 2016 for 2,314 children in India, which included both questions from the leading tests and ones taken from smaller exams.Using answers from the same pupils on the same day to questions from different tests, they built a statistical model they called a “Rosetta Stone”.It can translate scores from a range of exams—such as one used only in west Africa—into an equal mark on other common international tests.
They then used these equations(等式)to estimate how pupils in 80 different countries would fare on the benchmark (基准) Trends in International Mathematics and Science Study (TIMSS).Their data show that the wealth of a student's country and family have similar impacts on test scores—meaning that big gaps in GDP per person matter more than small ones in household income do.For example, pupils from families that are very poor by rich-world standards—those earning $5,000 a year—are expected to score around 500 out of 1,000 on the TIMSS in America, and 560 in Japan.In contrast, those whose parents make $10,000 a year in an upper-middle income country can only get the equivalent (等价物) of a 475.
The influence of parental earnings is not constant.Rich people tend to educate their children privately in places where wealth is concentrated, such as Brazil.However, in countries with relatively flat income distributions, like Croatia, pupils from different social classes are more likely to attend the same schools.This could reduce the impact of family wealth on test scores.
32.Why is it hard to evaluate the exam scores on a global level?
A.Because the types of exams vary with countries.
B.Because many rich countries refuse regional tests.
C.Because the wealth of a country affects exam results.
D.Because no international exam is available to poor areas.
33.Why did the researchers establish a “Rosetta Stone”?
A.To integrate different exams into a common one.
B.To evaluate different exams with distinct approaches.
C.To fix the standard of the exams in different countries.
D.To turn scores of different exams into an equivalent mark.
34.What can we learn from the last two paragraphs?
A.Poor students tend to be academically superior to rich ones.
B.Students from rich families will definitely get higher grades.
C.The influence of family income on students is related to circumstances.
D.People with high social status are more likely to educate their children privately.
35.What is the text mainly about?
A.Education is something money can't buy.
B.The wealth of a country matters for education.
C.Family income plays an important role in education.
D.A statistical model helps to evaluate the exam scores.

With the development of the network, distance learning is gaining in popular.People's opinions about it varies from one to another.In my opinion, it won't replace with traditional learning.Firstly, it isn't suitably for students who prefer direct communication with teachers.What's bad, studying online too long will do harm to students' eyes.However, it is its flexibility in time and place which benefits teaching and learning.Also, it releases teachers from repeat the same contents since the video or audio materials can played repeatedly.So it is a effective addition to traditional learning.
Briefly, the combination of distance learning and traditional learning can help students realize their potential when putting into practice.

M:So,what's your next step?
W:I want to start by reaching out to local artists and see if they're interested in partnering with me and I'd offer a platform for them to sell their products.
M:Good idea! It'd be a win-win for both of you.What about deliveries?
W:I've been thinking about that.I want to offer free delivery for orders over a certain amount,and for smaller orders,I'll charge a small fee.
M:And how about packaging?
W:I want to make sure the products are packaged well.I'm investing in packaging materials that are recyclable.
M:That sounds great.I'm sure it will be successful.Let me know if there's anything I can do to help.
W:Thanks,John.I really appreciate it.

M:Well,good morning,ladies and gentlemen.Welcome to the Crowne Plaza business center at Coogee Beach.I'm David Bowers,your host for the next two days,and I just want to give you some practical information.OK.Coffee,tea,and cold drinks are served all day in the cafe which is just inside the main entrance to the hotel.Lunch is served between 12:00 and 2:30 in the private dining room.This evening you are invited to join the management for drinks by the swimming pool.The General Manager usually makes a short welcome speech.I'd like to apologize for the temperature.I'm afraid it's a little warmer than usual in here because the air conditioning in the business center is being repaired.However,the work will be completed before lunchtime.Right.There are some changes to the conference program.Unfortunately,one of the main speakers has canceled her talk and so a couple of the sessions have been canceled or rescheduled.The updated program is being printed at the moment.OK now,before we go for breakfast,are there any questions?

22.B 细节理解题。根据Access部分的“Our current projects involve the fitting of a wheelchair ramp (活动坡道) for better access, a customer care kit and an audio tour for visitors with impaired vision.”可知,视力不好的游客也可以参观博物馆。

B
【语篇解读】 本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了一个暖心的故事,身患残疾的Mark想要打棒球,球员答应让他上场,为了成全身患残疾的Mark,球队双方进行了善意地欺骗,故意屡屡失手,共同制造了一个特殊的“英雄”——Mark。
24.C 推理判断题。根据第一段中“Mark's father knew that few boys would want someone like Mark, mentally and physically disabled, on their team, but the father still approached to ask the boys if Mark could play.They exchanged glances with each other and said, ‘We'll try to put him in to bat.’”可知,Mark的父亲理解儿子的心情,理解他需要一种被接受的感觉,虽然身患残疾,但Mark希望得到别人的认可和接受。
25.A 词义猜测题。根据第五段内容可知,球队中最小的男孩故意把球扔得又高又远,因为理解了投手想要帮助Mark赢得比赛的意图。intention是“意图”。
26.C 推理判断题。通过倒数第二段中“All were screaming.‘Mark, run to third.’ As Mark rounded third, all were on their feet, crying, ‘Mark, run home!’Mark ran to home, stepped on the home base and was cheered as the hero who won the game for his team.”以及最后一段内容可推知,对方球员并不是不能阻止Mark跑回本垒,他们是为了让身患残疾的Mark感到快乐,球队双方都进行了善意地欺骗,故意屡屡失手,共同制造了一个特殊的“英雄”,C项“对方球员没能阻止他向本垒跑去。”与文章内容及主题不符。
27.A 主旨大意题。通读全文,再通过最后一段内容可推知,本文通过讲述棒球球员与身患残疾的Mark之间的暖心故事,引出了一个关于人性的话题,通过这个故事可以领悟到真正的人性可以通过我们对待彼此的方式来体现。
C
【语篇解读】 本文是一篇说明文。文章主要说明了日本的研究人员创建了一个名为“预览现实(Previewed Reality)”的近未来感知系统,该系统允许人类用户预测未来环境的变化,然后为他们的决策提供信息并指导他们的行动。文章介绍了其工作过程以及特点。
28.C 细节理解题。根据第一段中“To reduce the risk, roboticists have developed numerous techniques that monitor an environment, predict the future actions of humans, identify safe trajectories (轨迹) for a robot and control its movements accordingly.”可知,研究人员开发这个系统是为了提高人机交互的安全性。
29.B 细节理解题。根据第三段中“This system compiles a data-set containing information about the position of objects, humans and robots within the same environment, to then produce simulations (模拟) of events that could take place in the near future.”可知,Previewed Reality的特别之处是它使人类用户能够感知未来的事件。
30.D 段落大意题。第四段的主要内容是Previewed Reality的工作过程。
31.D 细节理解题。根据最后一段中“In their next studies, they plan to expand and simplify the perception system, for instance by creating a lighter and more affordable version that can be accessed on smartphones or other portable devices.”可知,研究人员未来可能会使系统可在便携式设备上访问。
D
【语篇解读】 本文是一篇说明文。文章讲述了教育资源对一个学生的成绩有着至关重要的作用。哈佛大学的一项新研究提供了强有力的证据,证明一个国家的富裕程度和学生家庭的富裕程度对考试成绩的影响一样大。平均而言,富裕国家学生的考试成绩远远高于发展中国家学生。
32.A 细节理解题。根据第二段内容可知,富裕国家的学生大多参加一些大型国际考试,而许多发展中国家依靠地区考试。说明不同国家的考试的方式和类型不一,使得从全球范围评估考试成绩变得不可能。
33.D 细节理解题。根据第三段中“It can translate scores from a range of exams—such as one used only in west Africa—into an equal mark on other common international tests.”可知,Rosetta Stone可以将一系列考试的分数转化为其他常见国际考试的同等分数。
34.C 推理判断题。根据倒数第二段中“Their data show that the wealth of a student's country and family have similar impacts on test scores—meaning that big gaps in GDP per person matter more than small ones in household income do.”和最后一段内容可知,在财富集中的地方,富人倾向于让他们的孩子接受私人教育。在收入分配相对平坦的国家,来自不同社会阶层的学生更有可能上同一所学校。可推知,家庭收入的多少对学生的影响和其所在的环境有关系。
35.B 主旨大意题。通读全文,结合文章第一段中“A new study by Harvard University offers strong evidence that the wealth of a country affects exam results just as much as the wealth of a pupil's household does.On average, pupils in wealthy countries obtain vastly higher test scores than those in developing ones.”可知,国家富裕的程度对孩子教育的影响起着至关重要的作用。文章接下来的段落主要通过例证的方式展开论述。

第四部分 写作
第一节
With the development of the network, distance learning is gaining in .People's opinions about it from one to another.In my opinion, it won't replace traditional learning.Firstly, it isn't for students who prefer direct communication with teachers.What's , studying online too long will do harm to students' eyes.However, it is its flexibility in time and place benefits teaching and learning.Also, it releases teachers from the same contents since the video or audio materials can played repeatedly.So it is effective addition to traditional learning.
Briefly, the combination of distance learning and traditional learning can help students realize their potential when into practice.

【参考范文】
Dear_Peter,
I am delighted to hear that you are going to participate in the New Year Chinese Poetry Recitation Contest to be held in our school.I am writing to offer some advice, which I hope may be of great help to you.
Considering that the coming contest is related to New Year,you'd better choose some Chinese poetry with the theme of bidding farewell to the old year and welcoming the new year.When it comes to recitation techniques, you are supposed to speak standard Mandarin and pay attention to using proper pronunciation and stress.It is known to us all that practice makes perfect.Therefore, you should practice in advance.By the way, I have collected some classic poems that feature blessings for the new year and attached them to the email.
If there is any problem, don't hesitate to contact me.Look forward to your reply.
Yours,
Li_Hua
