一、阅读(共8小题;每小题5分,满分40分)
阅读下列短文,从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。
A
Real financial security and freedom is not in our job but in our passion. It's easy to define and evaluate a man by his pursuit. Joseph Campbell once said,"Follow your dream and the universe will open doors where there are only walls."
In life, we'll always be found doing any of these two things: either making a living or making a difference. Pensions (养老金)and salaries stop many from pursuing excellence while passion unlocks hidden potentials that equip us for challenges and opportunities. A job helps us make a living while passion enables us to make a difference.
I want to sincerely help to adjust and clarify the misguided belief among workers that a job is a means of livelihood. Rather, it should be a means to fuel our passion. The earlier you realize this basic truth of life, the more clearly you'll be able to position yourself in living a life of impact and value.
The success of Kentucky Fried Chicken (KFC) shows how meaningful it is to pursue your passion instead of your pension. Its founder, Colonel Harland Sanders, didn't realize this until he was given his first social security check of 105 dollars. But he decided that there surely was something to do for himself and other people instead of living on that small pension. He was determined to engage himself in what brought him impact and value. Drawing inspiration from his mother's special recipe for fried chicken, he invented"finger-licking"seasoning with eleven spices and herbs. Despite much rejection, he managed to round up some investors and promote company's rapid expansion to more than 6, 000 locations.Sanders' life pointed towards two facts about making a difference: one, there is no age that is too old to make a difference; two, there is nothing too small or insignificant to make a difference with, as long as it is your passion.
1. How does the author support his argument in paragraph 2?
A. By listing examples. B. By including a quote.
C. By showing contrast. D. By sharing his experience.
2. How did Sanders probably feel when offered his first social security check?
A. Deeply moved. B. Internally motivated.
C. Greatly relieved. D. Pleasantly surprised.
3. What does the author intend to do?
A. Give career guidance. B. Advise us to pursue our passion.
C. Persuade us to get a well-paid job. D. Secure our position.
4. What is the best title for this text?
A. Following Your Dreams B. Working for Pension
C. To Work or Not to Work? D. Passion or Pension?
B
Brain, 58, was treated in intensive care for a severe case. As soon as his condition had stabilized,he was sent home with equipment including a phone and a blood pressure monitor.
“Every day I would input my vital signs on the app," Brain said. "If anything went wrong or wasn’t right, a nurse would call me straight away."
Brain spent six weeks on this virtual(虚拟的)ward, run by his local NHS hospital in partnership with Doccla, a healthcare technology company. He is one of thousands of patients to have been treated in new "hospitals at home", seen by NHS leaders as a "lifeline" for overcrowded hospitals that have run out of beds. 2,500 virtual ward beds were already in use, ensuring that people could get the care they need from their own homes.
Retz, founder of Docile, said soon there could be "regional command centers", where a doctor monitored data from hundreds of patients. "It works in a similar way to traditional ward rounds in a hospital, with patients submitting data once or twice a day, which is reviewed by a doctor," he said.
Noel O'Kelly, clinical director at Spirit Health, said,"Older people want to spend as little time in hospital as possible and avoid hospital visits, particularly as frequent visits and long periods of time spent in hospital can be damaging to the health of older patients. We have already seen very encouraging results from the use of virtual wards for older patients."
Virtual wards allow real potential to support people to recover well in the community. The model is not a silver bullet and health leaders are mindful that it should not worsen health inequalities, but it could present a vital lifeline for the system.
5. Why was Brain sent home?
A. He had run out of money. B. He had completely recovered.
C. His case was terminal and hopeless. D. He was ready for his further improving.
6. What is NHS leaders' attitude towards virtual wards?
A. Positive. B. Negative. C. Indifferent. D. Doubtful
7. How is "regional command centers" similar to"traditional ward rounds"?
A. Doctors work from home.
B. Patients have to stay in hospital.
C. Advanced information technology is a must,
D. Patients submit data to be examined by doctors.
8. Which of the following may Noel O'Kelly agree with?
A. Virtual wards only suit older patients.
B. Old people always find fault with hospitals.
C. Long hospitalization can harm aged patients
D. Old patients in hospital shouldn't be visited

三、读后续写
One possible version:
William knows this, too, but doesn't think much about the future when he's with John. He takes him to the basketball games to shoot photos for the yearbook. John makes sure the equipment is safe, and he has no problem asking schoolmates to pause for photos. Everybody loves John, but few take the time to actually be his friend except William.You'll always see them walking to and from school together.It's their habit,the one John enjoys the most.
Having a friend can be the most important possession in life when you are in high school. It means a lot of more good days than bad. When the weather turns even colder,and snow floats magically out of the dark morning sky, William says"No thanks" to people who offer him a ride to school. Walking with John, chasing snowflakes and walking off with smiley faces in front yards, is worth the cold. It's worth the time being with someone who is a little bit different, in a good way.
