(A)
You know what they say, marriage is like a box of chocolates and you never know what you are gonna get. My wife and I had a “ferocious” argument the other night 1 we were watching one episode of the latest season of a reality show called See You Again. Basically, the show was about three couples 2 (embark) on an 18-day vacation to try to work out their marital issues in the hope of saving their marriages. For them, it was really a make-it-or-break-it vacation.
3 we both agreed on most men’s incompetence in expressing their true feelings in any intimate relationship, my still beloved wife and I failed miserably to see eye to eye on reasons for that. She blamed it on men’s upbringing while I thought it had more to do with the influence of outdated social norms and stereotypes on men.
Our society 4 (discourage) emotional expression in men for ages, telling them they can’t shed a tear or show any vulnerability. These outdated ideas about what it means to be a man have messed them up big time. To me, it is no wonder that in the marriage market, the most common type available 5 women is the silent but dominant type of men with the whole breadwinner and homemaker roles still 6 (stick) in their heads. So when things don’t go that way, of course, they will feel lost.
“Intimidated” by my rigorous logic, my wife purposefully shifted the focus of her argument to 7 we two should raise our son and what I could have done better if I had taken her advice seriously.
However, things started to get much 8 (personal) when both of us seemed to run out of witty arguments. Realizing this disagreement would lead us nowhere, I wasted no time apologizing to her for my ill-considered words with dignity and offered to clean the plates piling up in the sink 9 I cooked dinner that night! Faced with an offer she couldn’t refuse, my wife kindly reminded me 10 (not forget) to dry the towel when I was done. Apology accepted, hence case closed.
At the end of the day, I exhibited my vulnerability as requested and she showed her mercy as expected. We just agreed to disagree and lived happily ever after.
【答案】
1.when 2.embarking 3.Although/Though/While 4.was discouraged 5.to 6.stuck 7.how 8.more personal 9.even if/even though 10.not to forget
【导语】这是一篇记叙文。本文主要讲述了作者和他的妻子对于男人不会表达感情的原因的不同观点,以及二人对此如何应对的故事。
1.考查时间状语从句。句意:前几天晚上,当我们正在看一部名为《再见爱人》的真人秀节目时,我和妻子大吵了一架。分析句子结构可知,本空引导时间状语从句,此处表示“当……时”,用when引导从句。故填when。
2.考查非谓语动词。句意:基本上,这个节目是关于三对夫妻的,他们正在开始一个18天的假期,试图解决他们的婚姻问题,以挽救他们的婚姻。动词embark意为“开始”。本句系动词为was,此处应用非谓语动词,且three couples与embark为主动关系,应用现在分词,作定语,修饰three couples。故填embarking。
3.考查让步状语从句。句意:虽然我们都认为大多数男人在任何亲密关系中都不善于表达自己的真实感受,但我和我仍然深爱着的妻子却无法就其中的原因达成一致。前后句意存在让步转折关系,应用although/though/while“虽然”引导让步状语从句,位于句首,首字母大写。故填Although/Though/While。
4.考查时态语态。句意:长期以来,我们的社会一直不被鼓励男性表达情感,告诉他们不能流泪或表现出任何脆弱。根据语境可知事情发生在过去,故时态用一般过去时,又因主语society与discourage为被动关系,故本句用一般过去时的被动语态,主语Our society单数,谓语单数形式。故填was discouraged。
5.考查固定短语。句意:对我来说,难怪在婚姻市场上,女性最常见的类型是沉默,但占主导地位的男性的类型是养家糊口的角色,他们的脑海中仍然萦绕着女性是家庭主妇的角色。根据空前的available可知,本空填介词to。available to sb.“可供某人使用”。故填to。
6.考查非谓语动词。句意:对我来说,难怪在婚姻市场上,女性最常见的类型是沉默,但占主导地位的男性的类型是养家糊口的角色,他们的脑海中仍然萦绕着女性是家庭主妇的角色。with复合结构,此处应用非谓语动词,roles和stick“粘住”之间是被动关系,所以应该用过去分词,作宾补。故答案为stuck。
7.考查宾语从句。句意:我妻子被我严谨的逻辑吓到了,她有意把争论的焦点转移到我们俩应该如何抚养儿子,以及如果我认真对待她的建议,我本可以做得更好。分析句子结构可知,本空引导宾语从句,此处表示“如何”,故用连接副词how引导。故答案为how。
8.考查形容词比较级。句意:然而,事情开始变得更加私人,因为我们俩似乎都没有机智的争论了。根据汉语及much可知,本空用形容词personal“个人的,私人的”的比较级。故填more personal。
9.考查让步状语从句。句意:意识到这种分歧不会给我们带来任何好处,我立即为自己考虑不的话而不失尊严地向她道歉,并表示即使晚上我做的晚饭,也主动要把水槽里堆积的盘子清理干净!分析句子结构可知,本空引导让步状语从句,此处表示“即使”,故用even if/though引导。故填even if/though。
10.考查非谓语动词。句意:面对一个她无法拒绝的提议,我的妻子善意地提醒我,洗完后别忘了把毛巾擦干。动词forget意为“忘记”。remind sb. not to do sth.“提醒某人不要做某事”。故填not to forget。
Section B
Directions: Fill in each blank with a proper word chosen from the box. Each word can be used only once. Note that there is one word more than you need.
A.adulthood B.betting C. alternative D.direct E. drown F. opting

The post millennial generation best known as Gen Z — individuals now in their teens and early 20s — looked on as their parents lost jobs during the Great Recession. They’ve seen older millennial siblings 11 in student debt. Since they could eat solid food, they’ve watched on promising techonology displace another, and, along with older generations, have questioned everything from the gig economy to the 12 of democracy. Now they’re entering 13 with a willingness to experiment.
“The old systems we used to rely on aren’t working anymore, but new systems haven’t necessarily been put in 14 ,” says Melissa Lavigne-Delville, founder of the trends and research firm Culture Co-op, which specializes in generational attitudes. “Parents aren’t even sure about how to 15 their children, because too much is up in the air.”
According to a survey by her firm, 78% of Gen Z-ers say getting a four-year degree no longer makes economic 16 , and hundreds of programs, from apprenticeships to boot camps, have cropped up to offer a(n) 17 path. New types of work are possible too. Research has found that teenagers are getting their driver’s licenses later and doing less traditional work-for-pay than previous generations. But while they might not be 18 tickets at the local cineplex, they may be starting a popular YouTube channel from their bedroom. Culture Co-op found that nearly 60% of Gen Z-ers, ages 13 to 22, say they are doing some form of freelancing. Dew, for one, didn’t have a job in high school but did teach himself to code and is building websites on the side while he attends MissionU.
Jumping into the freelance economy means taking an uncertain path, as is 19 one’s future earnings on an educational program no one has tried before. Almost $2 billion has been invested in “last mile training” efforts like MissionU, but many young people are still 20 for college.

Section A
Directions: For each blank in the following passage there are four words or phrases marked A. B.C and D. Fill in each blank with the word or phrase that best fits the context
The picture of miseries and sufferings of the Black woman in America may appear, perhaps darker and more depressing than Dante’s (但丁) description of Hell because in the history of human race, the Black woman in America has suffered the most. A close and critical 21 of the history of the Black woman’s life and condition since her arrival in a strange land will unfold very well the long story of her pain and sorrow 22 her mutilated (被切断的) soul. Since her arrival on the foreign shore, the Black woman has been facing the worst kind of 23 and oppression. As a Black she has had to endure all the horrors of slavery and has been the 24 of continually inhumane treatment in all kinds of work, 25 the lowest place on the wage scale and restricted to the lowest-status and the most uncreative jobs. Since times of slavery, Black womanhood has been destroyed, twisted and abused with racial and inhuman 26 by black men and white men and women. In the process, they have lost their genuine “self”, and have developed a(n) 27 in themselves — though as black women, they see themselves with the eyes of white men and women and black men. This has ultimately been responsible for the destruction of their self-confidence and the feeling of being human. They 28 themselves as masters’ belongings.
As a mother she has seen her children sold into slavery. She has seen them left at home without attention while she 29 to the needs of the children of the ruling class. She has seen her children suffer from drug addiction, the 30 of decent education and experience attacks by a racist society, and 31 the prisons of this nation. In addition, besides suffering the common fate of all oppressed people, the African-American women continue to 32 the oppression of woman by men, which existed for long. In the home she becomes “the slave of a slave”. Men may be cruelly treated and subjected to all sorts of dehumanizing treatment on the part of the ruling class. 33 , at least they can take out their frustration on someone else, their women.
Thus feminism in America means much more than what it stands for in other European countries, chiefly because it has different role and meaning 34 the Black women. If a feminist is commonly defined as one who is involved in transforming and 35 familiar realities, then Black women are innate (天生的) feminists. Black women writing exhibits and constructs a Black women’s literary tradition that is inherently feminist. Barbara Smith, an influential Black feminist critic, states that the ability of Black women to survive in the face of White America exhibits an innate feminist potential.

Section B
Directions: Read the following three passages. Each passage is followed by several questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage you have just read.
(A)
The day I met Hani Irmawati, she was a shy, 17-year-old girl standing alone in the parking lot of the international school in Indonesia, where I teach English. She asked if I could help her improve her English. I could tell it took immense (巨大的) courage for the young Indonesian girl to approach me and ask for help.
“I want to go to a US university,” she said with confidence. I was surprised.
I agreed to work with her on a volunteer basis. For several months, Hani woke each morning at five and caught the city bus to her public high school. During the ride, she studied for her regular classes and the English assignments I had given her. At four o’clock in the afternoon, she arrived at my classroom, exhausted but ready to work.
Hani lived in a two-room house with her parents and two brothers. When I met them at their house, I realized they would never be able to afford the expenses of a US university. Hani’s enthusiasm was increasing with her language ability, but I was becoming more and more discouraged.
One day I received the announcement of a scholarship opportunity for a major US university. After reading the requirements, I knew Hani couldn’t meet the qualifications. I told her that there was only a slim chance of her getting the scholarship and encouraged her to be more “realistic” about her dream. But she remained determined.
“Will you send in my name?” she asked.
I couldn’t turn her down. I completed the application, with the painful truth about her academic life, but also with my praise of her courage and perseverance.
In the weeks that followed, I arranged for her to take the Test of English Fluency in Jakarta. The entire test would be an enormous challenge for someone who had never touched a computer before. For two weeks, we studied how a computer works. Then, just before Hani went to Jakarta, she received a letter from the scholarship association. She had been accepted.
I leaped around the room, overjoyed and shocked. Hani stood by, smiling. I realized that it was I who had learned something Hani had known from the beginning: It is not intelligence alone that brings success, but also the drive to succeed, the commitment to work hard and the courage to believe in yourself.
36.What did the author think of Hani when he first met her?
A.She’s intelligent.
B.She’s unrealistic.
C.She’s courageous.
D.She’s diligent.
37.What made the author feel discouraged?
A.Hani’s slow improvement in English.
B.Hani’s family’s financial situation.
C.Hani’s choice of universities.
D.Hani’s overconfidence in her ability.
38.What happened when Hani applied for the scholarship?
A.The author encouraged her to apply.
B.The author spoke highly of her academic performance.
C.She insisted on having a try despite her disadvantages.
D.She stood out because of her computer skills.
39.What did the author learn from Hani?
A.English opens doors to new opportunities.
B.It is important to dream big and aim high.
C.Confidence and determination are the key to success.
D.A supportive teacher means a lot to students.
【答案】36.C 37.B 38.C 39.C
【导语】这是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了一个家境贫困的印尼女孩Hani的自信和努力学习的决心使得她成功获得原本机会渺茫的奖学金的故事。
36.推理判断题。根据文章第一段“I could tell it took immense (巨大的) courage for the young Indonesian girl to approach me and ask for help. (我可以说,这个年轻的印度尼西亚女孩接近我并寻求帮助需要极大的勇气。)”可知作者初次见Hani的时候,她找作者寻求帮助,作者认为这是需要极大勇气的,由此可知作者认为Hani是有勇气的;故选C项。
37.细节理解题。根据文章第四段“When I met them at their house, I realized they would never be able to afford the expenses of a US university. Hani’s enthusiasm was increasing with her language ability, but I was becoming more and more discouraged. (当我在他们家见到他们时,我意识到他们永远也负担不起美国大学的费用。Hani的热情随着她的语言能力而增强,但我却越来越气馁。)”可知作者意识到Hani负担不起美国大学的费用,即Hani的家庭经济状况不佳让作者感到气馁;故选B项。
38.细节理解题。根据文章第五段“I told her that there was only a slim chance of her getting the scholarship and encouraged her to be more “realistic” about her dream. But she remained determined. (我告诉她,她获得奖学金的机会非常渺茫,并鼓励她对自己的梦想要“现实一点”。但她仍然很坚定。)”和第六段““Will you send in my name?” she asked. (你愿意报我的名字吗?”她问道。)”可知当申请奖学金的时候,作者告诉她机会渺茫,但是她仍然很坚定地要试一试,尽管她处于劣势;故选C项。
39.推理判断题。根据文章最后一段“I realized that it was I who had learned something Hani had known from the beginning: It is not intelligence alone that brings success, but also the drive to succeed, the commitment to work hard and the courage to believe in yourself. (我意识到,我学到了Hani从一开始就知道的东西:带来成功的不仅仅是智力,还有成功的动力、努力工作的承诺和相信自己的勇气。)”可知作者从Hani身上学到了带来成功的不仅仅是智力,相信自己的勇气和履行努力工作的承诺能带来成功,即自信和决心是成功的关键;故选C项。

Below are details of some amazing homes made out of shipping containers.
London Container City (I and II)
London’s Container City first sprang up in the heart of the docklands in 2001. It took just five months to complete the original 12 work studios. Shortly after that, a fourth floor of studios and living apartments was built on top of these. The first container city was so successful that another—Container City II—was added to it.
Los Angeles Redondo Beach house
With its modern lines and appealing spaces, the award-winning Redondo Beach House is a luxury beachside showpiece built from eight recycled steel shipping containers, along with some traditional building materials. According to the architects, the modified containers are “nearly indestructible”.
Amsterdam Keetwonen
Amsterdam’s massive Keetwonen complex houses 1,000 students and it is the largest container city in the world. The housing project is a roaring success and features units that are quiet and comfortable. Each resident enjoys a bathroom, a kitchen and separate sleeping and studying quarters. The complex even has central heating and high-speed internet as well as areas for parking bikes.
Mexico M2ATK Container House

【答案】40.B 41.B 42.D
【导语】本文为一篇应用文。文章主要介绍了几款用船运集装箱建造的令人惊叹的房屋。
40.细节理解题。根据文章第一段“Shipping containers are gaining popularity as an alternative to traditional houses. These 20-or 40-foot containers can be obtained for as little as several hundred US dollars a piece, and it’s not surprising that some industry professionals and even city planners consider them the future of home building.(船运集装箱作为传统房屋的替代品越来越受到欢迎。这些10或者40英寸的集装箱只需要几百美元,一些行业的专业人士甚至城市规划者将其视为家庭建筑的未来也不足为奇了。)”可知,集装箱房屋与传统房屋相比,其优势在于它的价格便宜,故选B。
41.细节理解题。根据文章第四段“Amsterdam’s massive Keetwonen complex houses 1,000 students and it is the largest container city in the world. The housing project is a roaring success and features units that are quiet and comfortable. Each resident enjoys a bathroom, a kitchen and separate sleeping and studying quarters. The complex even has central heating and high-speed internet as well as areas for parking bikes.(阿姆斯特丹庞大的Keetwonen综合楼容纳了1000名学生,是世界上最大的集装箱城市。该住宅项目取得了巨大的成功,拥有安静舒适的单元。每位居民都享有一间浴室、一间厨房以及独立的睡眠和学习区。)”可知,阿姆斯特丹庞大的Keetwonen有着现代设施,独立浴室、厨房、睡眠区和学习区,故选B。
42.细节理解题。根据文章最后一段“On the bottom floor of the house are “public spaces” such as the kitchen and living room. The second floor are bedrooms, and the top floor is a studio space in which to work, read and “let fly the imagination”.(房子的底层是‘公共空间’,如厨房和餐厅。二楼是卧室,顶层是工作室,可以在这里工作、阅读和‘释放想象力’。)”可知,Mexico M2ATK Container House适合,这一家人需要公共空间和独立的区域,还需要孩子的学习以及他们工作的地方,故选D。
(C)
In the fog of uncertainty about how new technology will change the way we work, policymakers around the world say confidently that we will need to upskill the workforce in order to cope. The view sounds reassuringly sensible: if computers are growing smarter, humans will need to learn to use them or be replaced by them. But the truth is, the people who are being “upskilled” in today’s economy are the ones who need it the least.
Research shows that workers with degrees are over three times more likely to participate in training as adults than workers with no qualifications. That creates a virtuous circle for those who did well at school, and a vicious circle for those who did not. If the robots are coming for both the accountants and the taxi drivers, you can bet it is those working with money that will be more able to retrain themselves out of danger, because the better educated tend to have more confidence and money to pay for their own training.
Employers also invest in these workers more. In the UK, a surprising number of employers send their senior managers to business schools. It is no good blaming employers for directing investments at their highly-skilled workers. They are simply aiming for the highest return they can get. And, for some types of lower-paid work, it is not always true that technological progress requires more skills. Sometimes, technology can de-skill a job. Just look at Uber drivers who follow the driving routes set by their app, rather than expanding their own knowledge of the streets. The UK’s latest Employment and Skills Survey suggests the use of literacy and numeracy skills at work has fallen since 2012, even as the use of computers has increased. However, the trouble is, when the computer makes your job easier one day, it might make it redundant the next. Many of those affected by automation will need to switch occupations, or even industries. But a retailer or warehouse company is not going to retrain its staff to help them move to a different sector.
It is time to revisit older ideas. The UK once had a vibrant culture of night schools, for adults to attend after their day jobs. A revival of it could be exactly what the 21st century needs. Rather than just “upskilling” in a narrow way, people could choose to learn an entirely new skill or trade, or explore interests they never had a chance to nurture before.
It is still not clear whether the impact of new technology on the labour market will come in a trickle or a flood. But in an already unequal world, continuing to reserve all the lifeboats for the better-off would be a dangerous mistake.
43.According to the writer, policymakers’ belief in upskilling the workforce __________.
A.is contrary to popular belief B.is helpful in coping with new technology
C.is too difficult to put it into practice D.is not beneficial to those who need it most
44.It can be inferred that workers without qualifications are less likely to __________.
A.have confidence in outperforming those with degrees at school
B.persuade their employers to make an investment in them
C.minimize the risk of job loss caused by new technology
D.assess how new technology will change the way they work
45.The word “redundant” (Para. 3) probably means __________.
A.unnecessary B.undesirable C.unskilled D.unrewarding
46.According to the passage, which of the following conclusion is True?
A.Workers’ literacy and numeracy skills should be enhanced without delay.
B.Night schools can help to eliminate skill gaps among workers.
C.Companies should attach much importance to retraining of workers.
D.Those lower-skilled workers deserve giving more chances of retraining.
【答案】43.D 44.C 45.A 46.D
【导语】本文为一篇说明文。文章针对通常看法“需提升劳动人口技能以应对自动化浪潮”指出,现实中技能提升的机会往往向高学历者倾斜,应为真正面临危机的低学历者提供再培训机会。
43.细节理解题。根据第一段“In the fog of uncertainty about how new technology will change the way we work, policymakers around the world say confidently that we will need to upskill the workforce in order to cope. The view sounds reassuringly sensible: if computers are growing smarter, humans will need to learn to use them or be replaced by them. But the truth is, the people who are being “upskilled” in today’s economy are the ones who need it the least.(在新技术将如何改变我们工作方式的不确定性迷雾中,世界各地的政策制定者自信地表示,我们需要提高劳动力的技能,以应对这一挑战。这种观点听起来合情合理,令人放心:如果计算机变得越来越智能,人类将需要学会使用它们,否则就会被它们取代。但事实是,在当今的经济环境下,那些“技能提升”的人恰恰是最不需要技能提升的人)”可知,作者认为,政策制定者对提高劳动力技能的信念不利于那些最需要技能的人。故选D项。
44.推理判断题。根据第二段“Research shows that workers with degrees are over three times more likely to participate in training as adults than workers with no qualifications. That creates a virtuous circle for those who did well at school, and a vicious circle for those who did not. If the robots are coming for both the accountants and the taxi drivers, you can bet it is those working with money that will be more able to retrain themselves out of danger, because the better educated tend to have more confidence and money to pay for their own training.(研究表明,有学历的工人成年后参加培训的可能性是没有学历的工人的三倍多。这为那些在学校表现好的人创造了一个良性循环,而为那些表现不好的人创造了一个恶性循环。如果机器人正在取代会计和出租车司机,你可以打赌,那些有钱的人将更有能力重新培训自己以摆脱危险,因为受过更好教育的人往往更有信心,也更有钱来支付自己的培训费用)”可推知,没有资格的工人不太可能将新技术带来的失业风险降到最低。故选C项。
45.词句猜测题。根据后文“Many of those affected by automation will need to switch occupations, or even industries.(许多受自动化影响的人将需要转换职业,甚至行业)”可知,科技进步让工作变的更容易的同时,也可能会让人失去工作,推知redundant意为“不需要的”之意,和A项意思相近。故选A项。
46.推理判断题。根据最后一段“It is still not clear whether the impact of new technology on the labour market will come in a trickle or a flood. But in an already unequal world, continuing to reserve all the lifeboats for the better-off would be a dangerous mistake.(目前尚不清楚新技术对劳动力市场的影响是涓涓细流还是洪流。但在一个已经不平等的世界里,继续把所有的救生艇都留给富人将是一个危险的错误)”可知,作者认为把所有的救生艇都留给富人将是一个危险的错误,所以是那些低技能工人应该得到更多再培训的机会。故选D项。

How to Become a Scientist
Here is some advice for students who think they might like to become scientists.
Become an observer. One of the most important things you can do to become a good scientist is to practice watching everything carefully. Find a comfortable chair and put it in the middle of your garden or a park. Sit in the chair for thirty minutes or an hour. Watch the insects that fly past or land on the plants. Look at the shapes of leaves and branches. Listen to the sounds of insects. 47 Use a microscope to look closely at interesting objects.
Learn everything you can about a topic that interests you. Suppose you’d like to explore flowers by using a microscope. Go to the library and check out some flower books. See what you can find on the Internet. Pick some flowers and carefully take them apart. 48 The more you know about flowers from reading about them and observing them, the more you’ll understand when you look at them with a microscope.
Ask for help from a knowledgeable person. After you’ve learned everything you can on your own, ask someone else to help with questions you still have. Maybe there’s someone at a nearby school or museum who knows about insects, spiders, or something else you’d like to learn about. 49
Find a scientist to talk to or find a place where scientific research is being done. If you still want to learn more, you can find a scientist to talk to at a nearby university, or research station. 50 Explain what you’re interested in. Ask if you can schedule a time to visit. Most scientists are happy to talk to students who share their passion for science.
A.You may go to seek answers from him.
B.Write a letter or an e-mail message to the scientist.
C.Research your questions using the Internet or library.
D.See if you can find a sight or sound that surprises you.
E.Use a microscope to see how everything fits together.
F.Being a scientist is time-consuming and mentally demanding.
【答案】47.D 48.E 49.A 50.B
【导语】这是一篇说明文。本文主要为想成为科学家的学生提出了几点建议。
47.上文“Look at the shapes of leaves and branches. Listen to the sounds of insects.”(看树叶和树枝的形状。听听昆虫的声音。)建议看看树叶的形状,听听昆虫发出的声音;下文“Use a microscope to look closely at interesting objects.”(使用显微镜仔细观察有趣的物体。)指出用显微镜近距离观察这些有趣的事物。D项See if you can find a sight or sound that surprises you.(看看你是否能找到一个让你惊讶的景象或声音。)符合语境,起到承上启下的作用,上下文语意连贯。故选D项。
48.上文“Pick some flowers and carefully take them apart.”(摘一些花,小心地把它们拆开。)提到摘一些花并小心地把花分开。以及下文“The more you know about flowers from reading about them and observing them, the more you’ll understand when you look at them with a microscope.”(你通过阅读和观察对花了解得越多,当你用显微镜观察它们时,你就会了解得越多。)说明当你用显微镜观察它们时,你就会了解得越多。E项Use a microscope to see how everything fits together.(用显微镜看看这些东西是如何组合在一起的。)承上启下,下文进一步具体解释此行为。上下文语意连贯,符合语境。故选E项。
49.根据上文“Maybe there’s someone at a nearby school or museum who knows about insects, spiders, or something else you’d like to learn about.”(也许附近的学校或博物馆里有人了解昆虫、蜘蛛或其他你想了解的东西。)可知,在附近的学校和博物馆里会有一些知识广博的人,结合该段第一句“Ask for help from a knowledgeable person.”(向有知识的人寻求帮助。)可知,向这些人咨询你会得到答案。A项You may go to seek answers from him.(你可以去问他答案。)符合此推断,与该段主旨一致,上下文紧密连接。故选A项。
50.上文“If you still want to learn more, you can find a scientist to talk to at a nearby university, or research station.”(如果你还想了解更多,你可以在附近的大学或研究站找一位科学家谈谈。)提到找一位科学家交流。下文“Explain what you’re interested in. Ask if you can schedule a time to visit. Most scientists are happy to talk to students who share their passion for science”(说明你对什么感兴趣。询问你是否可以安排一个时间去拜访。大多数科学家都乐于与对科学有同样热情的学生交谈。)指出向他们说明你感兴趣的事,问他们你是否可以拜访他们。B项Write a letter or an e-mail message to the scientist.(给科学家写一封信或电子邮件。)符合语境,通过写信或发电子邮件联系科学家,询问是否可以亲自拜访,scientist是关键词。故选B项。
III.Summary Writing(共10分)
51.Directions: Read the following three passages. Summarize the main idea and the main point(s) of the passage in no more than 60 words. Use your own words as far as possible.
Preventing Resistance
The development of drug-resistant pathogens (病原体) can be prevented in at least three ways. First, sufficiently high concentrations of the drug can be maintained in a patient’s body for a long enough time to kill all sensitive cells and hold others long enough for the body’s defenses to defeat them. Discontinuing a drug before all of the pathogens have been neutralized promotes the development of resistance. For this reason, it is important that patients finish their entire antimicrobial prescription (抗菌药物) and resist the temptation to “save some for another day.”
A second way to prevent resistance is to use antimicrobial agents in combination so that pathogens resistant to one drug will be killed by the second, and vice versa. Additionally, one drug sometimes enhances the effect of a second drug in a process called synergism. Enhanced effect can also result from combining an antimicrobial drug and a chemical.
A third way to reduce the development of resistance is to limit the use of antimicrobials to necessary cases. Unfortunately, many antimicrobial agents are used indiscriminately, in both developed countries and in lessdeveloped regions where many are available without a physician’s prescription. In the United States, an estimated 50 percent of prescriptions for antibacterial agents to treat sore throats and 30 percent of prescriptions for ear infections, are inappropriate because the diseases are viral in nature. Likewise, because antibacterial drugs have no effect on cold and flu viruses, 100 percent of antibacterial prescriptions for treating diseases are unnecessary. As discussed previously, the use of antimicrobial agents encourages the reproduction of resistant bacteria by limiting the growth of sensitive cells; therefore, inappropriate use of such drugs increases the likelihood that resistance of bacteria will multiply.
In order to maintain the effectiveness of antimicrobial treatments, responsible practices must be implemented.
______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】There are three ways to prevent pathogens from developing resistance to drugs. First, patients should take all the drugs as directed by doctors. Second, several antimicrobial agents can be used together to ensure the effect of drug taking. Finally, it is important to guarantee that antimicrobials are used only for necessary cases. Responsible practices are keys to treatment effectiveness.
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍说,有三种方法可以防止病原体产生抗药性。首先,病人应该按照医生的指示服用所有的药物。其次,几种抗菌药物可以同时使用,保证服药效果。最后,重要的是要保证仅在必要的情况下使用抗菌素。负责任的做法是治疗效果的关键。
【详解】1.要点摘录

52.这个生物对成熟果实的喜爱,有别于它的史前祖先。(distinguish) (汉译英)
【答案】This (living) creature’s love for ripe fruits distinguishes it from its prehistoric ancestors.
This (living) creature is distinguished from its prehistoric ancestors by its love for ripe fruits.
This (living) creature loves ripe fruits, which distinguishes it from its prehistoric ancestors.
【详解】考查固定短语。表示“这个生物”短语为This (living) creature;表示“对成熟果实的喜爱”可翻译为love for ripe fruits、 its love for ripe fruits或love ripe fruits;表示“有别于”短语为distinguish...from/be distinguished from;表示“史前祖先”应用prehistoric ancestors。此处也可用which引导的非限制性定语从句修饰句子This (living) creature loves ripe fruits。句子陈述一般性事实,用一般现在时。故翻译为This (living) creature’s love for ripe fruits distinguishes it from its prehistoric ancestors./This (living) creature is distinguished from its prehistoric ancestors by its love for ripe fruits./This (living) creature loves ripe fruits, which distinguishes it from its prehistoric ancestors.
53.他不顾自己大病初愈,立刻埋首于原始数据的处理中。(bury)(汉译英)
【答案】Despite the fact that he had just recovered from a serious illness, he buried himself in processing the raw data/the raw data processing immediately./Regardless of/Despite his recent recovery from a serious illness, he buried himself in processing the raw data/the raw data processing immediately.
【详解】考查同位语从句、动词短语、名词短语、介词和副词。“他不顾自己大病初愈”有两种译法,一种是在意为“尽管”的介词despite后使用名词短语the fact,再用that引导名词性从句作fact的同位语,从句中主语“他”用代词he,“大病初愈”即“刚刚从大病中痊愈”,“刚刚”应用副词just,“从……中痊愈”可用动词短语recover from,“大病”可用名词短语a serious illness,且此处“痊愈”发生在“埋首于”之前,是过去的过去发生的事情,时态应用过去完成时,recover需变为had recovered;另一种是在意为“不管,不顾”的固定短语regardless of或意为“尽管”的介词despite后直接使用名词短语,用his recent recovery from a serious illness表示“自己大病初愈”。“埋首于”可用动词短语bury oneself in,主语是he,oneself需变为himself,且此处是描述过去发生的事情,时态应用一般过去时,bury应用过去式,“原始数据的处理”可用动名词短语processing the raw data或名词短语the raw data processing,“立刻”可用副词immediately。故译为:Despite the fact that he had just recovered from a serious illness, he buried himself in processing the raw data/the raw data processing immediately./Regardless of/Despite his recent recovery from a serious illness, he buried himself in processing the raw data/the raw data processing immediately.
54.失主深信过不了多久就能去机场认领自己丢失的行李。(before; convince) (汉译英)
【答案】The owner of the lost property was deeply convinced that it wouldn’t be long before he could claim his lost luggage at the airport.
【详解】考查形容词、宾语从句和状语从句。描述过去的一次性动作,应用一般过去时。表示“失主”可用The owner of the lost property,在句中作主语;be deeply convinced that“深信……”,that引导的宾语从句,that在从句中不作成分,没有意义;表示“过不了多久就”可用it wouldn’t be long before...句式;在before引导的时间状语从句中,“他”he作主语;表示“能够”用could;表示“认领”用claim;表示“(他)自己丢失的行李”用his lost luggage,在句中作宾语;表示“在机场”用at the airport,在句中做地点状语。故翻译为:The owner of the lost property was deeply convinced that it wouldn’t be long before he could claim his lost luggage at the airport.
55.这已是该地区第三次爆发森林大火了,这些火灾不仅严重破坏了自然平衡,也对人类生命构成了极大的威胁。(disturb) (汉译英)
【答案】This is the third time that a forest fire has broken out in this area, which has not only disturbed the balance of nature but has also posed a huge threat to human life.
【详解】考查短语、固定句型、时态和定语从句。表示“这是第三次……”句型为This is the third time that+现在完成时;表示“森林大火”应用a forest fire;表示“爆发”短语为beak out;表示“该地区”应用in this area;后跟which引导的非限制性定语从句;表示“不仅……而且……”句型为not only…but also…;表示“严重破坏了自然平衡”应用disturb the balance of nature;表示“对人类生命构成了极大的威胁”应用pose a huge threat to human life,从句用一般过去时。故翻译为This is the third time that a forest fire has broken out in this area, which has not only disturbed the balance of nature but has also posed a huge threat to human life.

I.Grammar and Vocabulary (每题1分;共20分)
Section A
Directions: After reading the passage below, fill in the blanks to make the passage coherent and grammatically correct. For the blanks with a given word, fill in each blank with the proper form of the given word; for the other blanks, use one word that best fits each blank.
(A)
You know what they say, marriage is like a box of chocolates and you never know what you are gonna get. My wife and I had a “ferocious” argument the other night 1 we were watching one episode of the latest season of a reality show called See You Again. Basically, the show was about three couples 2 (embark) on an 18-day vacation to try to work out their marital issues in the hope of saving their marriages. For them, it was really a make-it-or-break-it vacation.
3 we both agreed on most men’s incompetence in expressing their true feelings in any intimate relationship, my still beloved wife and I failed miserably to see eye to eye on reasons for that. She blamed it on men’s upbringing while I thought it had more to do with the influence of outdated social norms and stereotypes on men.
Our society 4 (discourage) emotional expression in men for ages, telling them they can’t shed a tear or show any vulnerability. These outdated ideas about what it means to be a man have messed them up big time. To me, it is no wonder that in the marriage market, the most common type available 5 women is the silent but dominant type of men with the whole breadwinner and homemaker roles still 6 (stick) in their heads. So when things don’t go that way, of course, they will feel lost.
“Intimidated” by my rigorous logic, my wife purposefully shifted the focus of her argument to 7 we two should raise our son and what I could have done better if I had taken her advice seriously.
However, things started to get much 8 (personal) when both of us seemed to run out of witty arguments. Realizing this disagreement would lead us nowhere, I wasted no time apologizing to her for my ill-considered words with dignity and offered to clean the plates piling up in the sink 9 I cooked dinner that night! Faced with an offer she couldn’t refuse, my wife kindly reminded me 10 (not forget) to dry the towel when I was done. Apology accepted, hence case closed.
At the end of the day, I exhibited my vulnerability as requested and she showed her mercy as expected. We just agreed to disagree and lived happily ever after.

The post millennial generation best known as Gen Z — individuals now in their teens and early 20s — looked on as their parents lost jobs during the Great Recession. They’ve seen older millennial siblings 11 in student debt. Since they could eat solid food, they’ve watched on promising techonology displace another, and, along with older generations, have questioned everything from the gig economy to the 12 of democracy. Now they’re entering 13 with a willingness to experiment.
“The old systems we used to rely on aren’t working anymore, but new systems haven’t necessarily been put in 14 ,” says Melissa Lavigne-Delville, founder of the trends and research firm Culture Co-op, which specializes in generational attitudes. “Parents aren’t even sure about how to 15 their children, because too much is up in the air.”
According to a survey by her firm, 78% of Gen Z-ers say getting a four-year degree no longer makes economic 16 , and hundreds of programs, from apprenticeships to boot camps, have cropped up to offer a(n) 17 path. New types of work are possible too. Research has found that teenagers are getting their driver’s licenses later and doing less traditional work-for-pay than previous generations. But while they might not be 18 tickets at the local cineplex, they may be starting a popular YouTube channel from their bedroom. Culture Co-op found that nearly 60% of Gen Z-ers, ages 13 to 22, say they are doing some form of freelancing. Dew, for one, didn’t have a job in high school but did teach himself to code and is building websites on the side while he attends MissionU.
Jumping into the freelance economy means taking an uncertain path, as is 19 one’s future earnings on an educational program no one has tried before. Almost $2 billion has been invested in “last mile training” efforts like MissionU, but many young people are still 20 for college.
II.Reading Comprehension (共45分。 21-35每题1分;36-50每题2分)
Section A
Directions: For each blank in the following passage there are four words or phrases marked A. B.C and D. Fill in each blank with the word or phrase that best fits the context
The picture of miseries and sufferings of the Black woman in America may appear, perhaps darker and more depressing than Dante’s (但丁) description of Hell because in the history of human race, the Black woman in America has suffered the most. A close and critical 21 of the history of the Black woman’s life and condition since her arrival in a strange land will unfold very well the long story of her pain and sorrow 22 her mutilated (被切断的) soul. Since her arrival on the foreign shore, the Black woman has been facing the worst kind of 23 and oppression. As a Black she has had to endure all the horrors of slavery and has been the 24 of continually inhumane treatment in all kinds of work, 25 the lowest place on the wage scale and restricted to the lowest-status and the most uncreative jobs. Since times of slavery, Black womanhood has been destroyed, twisted and abused with racial and inhuman 26 by black men and white men and women. In the process, they have lost their genuine “self”, and have developed a(n) 27 in themselves — though as black women, they see themselves with the eyes of white men and women and black men. This has ultimately been responsible for the destruction of their self-confidence and the feeling of being human. They 28 themselves as masters’ belongings.
As a mother she has seen her children sold into slavery. She has seen them left at home without attention while she 29 to the needs of the children of the ruling class. She has seen her children suffer from drug addiction, the 30 of decent education and experience attacks by a racist society, and 31 the prisons of this nation. In addition, besides suffering the common fate of all oppressed people, the African-American women continue to 32 the oppression of woman by men, which existed for long. In the home she becomes “the slave of a slave”. Men may be cruelly treated and subjected to all sorts of dehumanizing treatment on the part of the ruling class. 33 , at least they can take out their frustration on someone else, their women.
Thus feminism in America means much more than what it stands for in other European countries, chiefly because it has different role and meaning 34 the Black women. If a feminist is commonly defined as one who is involved in transforming and 35 familiar realities, then Black women are innate (天生的) feminists. Black women writing exhibits and constructs a Black women’s literary tradition that is inherently feminist. Barbara Smith, an influential Black feminist critic, states that the ability of Black women to survive in the face of White America exhibits an innate feminist potential.

Section B
Directions: Read the following three passages. Each passage is followed by several questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage you have just read.
(A)
The day I met Hani Irmawati, she was a shy, 17-year-old girl standing alone in the parking lot of the international school in Indonesia, where I teach English. She asked if I could help her improve her English. I could tell it took immense (巨大的) courage for the young Indonesian girl to approach me and ask for help.
“I want to go to a US university,” she said with confidence. I was surprised.
I agreed to work with her on a volunteer basis. For several months, Hani woke each morning at five and caught the city bus to her public high school. During the ride, she studied for her regular classes and the English assignments I had given her. At four o’clock in the afternoon, she arrived at my classroom, exhausted but ready to work.
Hani lived in a two-room house with her parents and two brothers. When I met them at their house, I realized they would never be able to afford the expenses of a US university. Hani’s enthusiasm was increasing with her language ability, but I was becoming more and more discouraged.
One day I received the announcement of a scholarship opportunity for a major US university. After reading the requirements, I knew Hani couldn’t meet the qualifications. I told her that there was only a slim chance of her getting the scholarship and encouraged her to be more “realistic” about her dream. But she remained determined.
“Will you send in my name?” she asked.
I couldn’t turn her down. I completed the application, with the painful truth about her academic life, but also with my praise of her courage and perseverance.
In the weeks that followed, I arranged for her to take the Test of English Fluency in Jakarta. The entire test would be an enormous challenge for someone who had never touched a computer before. For two weeks, we studied how a computer works. Then, just before Hani went to Jakarta, she received a letter from the scholarship association. She had been accepted.
I leaped around the room, overjoyed and shocked. Hani stood by, smiling. I realized that it was I who had learned something Hani had known from the beginning: It is not intelligence alone that brings success, but also the drive to succeed, the commitment to work hard and the courage to believe in yourself.
36.What did the author think of Hani when he first met her?
A.She’s intelligent.
B.She’s unrealistic.
C.She’s courageous.
D.She’s diligent.
37.What made the author feel discouraged?
A.Hani’s slow improvement in English.
B.Hani’s family’s financial situation.
C.Hani’s choice of universities.
D.Hani’s overconfidence in her ability.
38.What happened when Hani applied for the scholarship?
A.The author encouraged her to apply.
B.The author spoke highly of her academic performance.
C.She insisted on having a try despite her disadvantages.
D.She stood out because of her computer skills.
39.What did the author learn from Hani?
A.English opens doors to new opportunities.
B.It is important to dream big and aim high.
C.Confidence and determination are the key to success.
D.A supportive teacher means a lot to students.

Shipping containers are gaining popularity as an alternative to traditional houses. These 20-or 40-foot containers can be obtained for as little as several hundred US dollars a piece, and it’s not surprising that some industry professionals and even city planners consider them the future of home building. Below are details of some amazing homes made out of shipping containers.
London Container City (I and II)
London’s Container City first sprang up in the heart of the docklands in 2001. It took just five months to complete the original 12 work studios. Shortly after that, a fourth floor of studios and living apartments was built on top of these. The first container city was so successful that another—Container City II—was added to it.
Los Angeles Redondo Beach house
With its modern lines and appealing spaces, the award-winning Redondo Beach House is a luxury beachside showpiece built from eight recycled steel shipping containers, along with some traditional building materials. According to the architects, the modified containers are “nearly indestructible”.
Amsterdam Keetwonen
Amsterdam’s massive Keetwonen complex houses 1,000 students and it is the largest container city in the world. The housing project is a roaring success and features units that are quiet and comfortable. Each resident enjoys a bathroom, a kitchen and separate sleeping and studying quarters. The complex even has central heating and high-speed internet as well as areas for parking bikes.
Mexico M2ATK Container House
M2ATK designed this unique container house for an artist. It’s fully equipped with heating and cooling, a kitchen and bathroom. On the bottom floor of the house are “public spaces” such as the kitchen and living room. The second floor are bedrooms, and the top floor is a studio space in which to work, read and “let fly the imagination”.
40.Compared to traditional houses, container houses are________.
A.easier to maintain B.less expensive to build
C.more comfortable to live in D.more fashionable in style
41.What can be learned about Amsterdam’s Keetwonen complex?
A.It is the first container city in the world. B.It’s equipped with modern facilities.
C.It features a luxury and unique style. D.It includes living space and car parks.
42.An architect is designing a container house for a family consisting of a married couple and their five school-age children in Canada. The family requires both public spaces and separate quarters. Which container home can the architect refer to?
A.London Container City (I and II) B.Los Angeles Redondo Beach house
C.Amsterdam Keetwonen D.Mexico M2ATK Container House
(C)
In the fog of uncertainty about how new technology will change the way we work, policymakers around the world say confidently that we will need to upskill the workforce in order to cope. The view sounds reassuringly sensible: if computers are growing smarter, humans will need to learn to use them or be replaced by them. But the truth is, the people who are being “upskilled” in today’s economy are the ones who need it the least.
Research shows that workers with degrees are over three times more likely to participate in training as adults than workers with no qualifications. That creates a virtuous circle for those who did well at school, and a vicious circle for those who did not. If the robots are coming for both the accountants and the taxi drivers, you can bet it is those working with money that will be more able to retrain themselves out of danger, because the better educated tend to have more confidence and money to pay for their own training.
Employers also invest in these workers more. In the UK, a surprising number of employers send their senior managers to business schools. It is no good blaming employers for directing investments at their highly-skilled workers. They are simply aiming for the highest return they can get. And, for some types of lower-paid work, it is not always true that technological progress requires more skills. Sometimes, technology can de-skill a job. Just look at Uber drivers who follow the driving routes set by their app, rather than expanding their own knowledge of the streets. The UK’s latest Employment and Skills Survey suggests the use of literacy and numeracy skills at work has fallen since 2012, even as the use of computers has increased. However, the trouble is, when the computer makes your job easier one day, it might make it redundant the next. Many of those affected by automation will need to switch occupations, or even industries. But a retailer or warehouse company is not going to retrain its staff to help them move to a different sector.
It is time to revisit older ideas. The UK once had a vibrant culture of night schools, for adults to attend after their day jobs. A revival of it could be exactly what the 21st century needs. Rather than just “upskilling” in a narrow way, people could choose to learn an entirely new skill or trade, or explore interests they never had a chance to nurture before.
It is still not clear whether the impact of new technology on the labour market will come in a trickle or a flood. But in an already unequal world, continuing to reserve all the lifeboats for the better-off would be a dangerous mistake.
43.According to the writer, policymakers’ belief in upskilling the workforce __________.
A.is contrary to popular belief B.is helpful in coping with new technology
C.is too difficult to put it into practice D.is not beneficial to those who need it most
44.It can be inferred that workers without qualifications are less likely to __________.
A.have confidence in outperforming those with degrees at school
B.persuade their employers to make an investment in them
C.minimize the risk of job loss caused by new technology
D.assess how new technology will change the way they work
45.The word “redundant” (Para. 3) probably means __________.
A.unnecessary B.undesirable C.unskilled D.unrewarding
46.According to the passage, which of the following conclusion is True?
A.Workers’ literacy and numeracy skills should be enhanced without delay.
B.Night schools can help to eliminate skill gaps among workers.
C.Companies should attach much importance to retraining of workers.
D.Those lower-skilled workers deserve giving more chances of retraining.

How to Become a Scientist
Here is some advice for students who think they might like to become scientists.
Become an observer. One of the most important things you can do to become a good scientist is to practice watching everything carefully. Find a comfortable chair and put it in the middle of your garden or a park. Sit in the chair for thirty minutes or an hour. Watch the insects that fly past or land on the plants. Look at the shapes of leaves and branches. Listen to the sounds of insects. 47 Use a microscope to look closely at interesting objects.
Learn everything you can about a topic that interests you. Suppose you’d like to explore flowers by using a microscope. Go to the library and check out some flower books. See what you can find on the Internet. Pick some flowers and carefully take them apart. 48 The more you know about flowers from reading about them and observing them, the more you’ll understand when you look at them with a microscope.
Ask for help from a knowledgeable person. After you’ve learned everything you can on your own, ask someone else to help with questions you still have. Maybe there’s someone at a nearby school or museum who knows about insects, spiders, or something else you’d like to learn about. 49
Find a scientist to talk to or find a place where scientific research is being done. If you still want to learn more, you can find a scientist to talk to at a nearby university, or research station. 50 Explain what you’re interested in. Ask if you can schedule a time to visit. Most scientists are happy to talk to students who share their passion for science.
A.You may go to seek answers from him.
B.Write a letter or an e-mail message to the scientist.
C.Research your questions using the Internet or library.
D.See if you can find a sight or sound that surprises you.
E.Use a microscope to see how everything fits together.
F.Being a scientist is time-consuming and mentally demanding.
III.Summary Writing(共10分)
51.Directions: Read the following three passages. Summarize the main idea and the main point(s) of the passage in no more than 60 words. Use your own words as far as possible.
Preventing Resistance
The development of drug-resistant pathogens (病原体) can be prevented in at least three ways. First, sufficiently high concentrations of the drug can be maintained in a patient’s body for a long enough time to kill all sensitive cells and hold others long enough for the body’s defenses to defeat them. Discontinuing a drug before all of the pathogens have been neutralized promotes the development of resistance. For this reason, it is important that patients finish their entire antimicrobial prescription (抗菌药物) and resist the temptation to “save some for another day.”
A second way to prevent resistance is to use antimicrobial agents in combination so that pathogens resistant to one drug will be killed by the second, and vice versa. Additionally, one drug sometimes enhances the effect of a second drug in a process called synergism. Enhanced effect can also result from combining an antimicrobial drug and a chemical.
A third way to reduce the development of resistance is to limit the use of antimicrobials to necessary cases. Unfortunately, many antimicrobial agents are used indiscriminately, in both developed countries and in lessdeveloped regions where many are available without a physician’s prescription. In the United States, an estimated 50 percent of prescriptions for antibacterial agents to treat sore throats and 30 percent of prescriptions for ear infections, are inappropriate because the diseases are viral in nature. Likewise, because antibacterial drugs have no effect on cold and flu viruses, 100 percent of antibacterial prescriptions for treating diseases are unnecessary. As discussed previously, the use of antimicrobial agents encourages the reproduction of resistant bacteria by limiting the growth of sensitive cells; therefore, inappropriate use of such drugs increases the likelihood that resistance of bacteria will multiply.
In order to maintain the effectiveness of antimicrobial treatments, responsible practices must be implemented.

(A)
You know what they say, marriage is like a box of chocolates and you never know what you are gonna get. My wife and I had a “ferocious” argument the other night 1 we were watching one episode of the latest season of a reality show called See You Again. Basically, the show was about three couples 2 (embark) on an 18-day vacation to try to work out their marital issues in the hope of saving their marriages. For them, it was really a make-it-or-break-it vacation.
3 we both agreed on most men’s incompetence in expressing their true feelings in any intimate relationship, my still beloved wife and I failed miserably to see eye to eye on reasons for that. She blamed it on men’s upbringing while I thought it had more to do with the influence of outdated social norms and stereotypes on men.
Our society 4 (discourage) emotional expression in men for ages, telling them they can’t shed a tear or show any vulnerability. These outdated ideas about what it means to be a man have messed them up big time. To me, it is no wonder that in the marriage market, the most common type available 5 women is the silent but dominant type of men with the whole breadwinner and homemaker roles still 6 (stick) in their heads. So when things don’t go that way, of course, they will feel lost.
“Intimidated” by my rigorous logic, my wife purposefully shifted the focus of her argument to 7 we two should raise our son and what I could have done better if I had taken her advice seriously.
However, things started to get much 8 (personal) when both of us seemed to run out of witty arguments. Realizing this disagreement would lead us nowhere, I wasted no time apologizing to her for my ill-considered words with dignity and offered to clean the plates piling up in the sink 9 I cooked dinner that night! Faced with an offer she couldn’t refuse, my wife kindly reminded me 10 (not forget) to dry the towel when I was done. Apology accepted, hence case closed.
At the end of the day, I exhibited my vulnerability as requested and she showed her mercy as expected. We just agreed to disagree and lived happily ever after.

The post millennial generation best known as Gen Z — individuals now in their teens and early 20s — looked on as their parents lost jobs during the Great Recession. They’ve seen older millennial siblings 11 in student debt. Since they could eat solid food, they’ve watched on promising techonology displace another, and, along with older generations, have questioned everything from the gig economy to the 12 of democracy. Now they’re entering 13 with a willingness to experiment.
“The old systems we used to rely on aren’t working anymore, but new systems haven’t necessarily been put in 14 ,” says Melissa Lavigne-Delville, founder of the trends and research firm Culture Co-op, which specializes in generational attitudes. “Parents aren’t even sure about how to 15 their children, because too much is up in the air.”
According to a survey by her firm, 78% of Gen Z-ers say getting a four-year degree no longer makes economic 16 , and hundreds of programs, from apprenticeships to boot camps, have cropped up to offer a(n) 17 path. New types of work are possible too. Research has found that teenagers are getting their driver’s licenses later and doing less traditional work-for-pay than previous generations. But while they might not be 18 tickets at the local cineplex, they may be starting a popular YouTube channel from their bedroom. Culture Co-op found that nearly 60% of Gen Z-ers, ages 13 to 22, say they are doing some form of freelancing. Dew, for one, didn’t have a job in high school but did teach himself to code and is building websites on the side while he attends MissionU.
Jumping into the freelance economy means taking an uncertain path, as is 19 one’s future earnings on an educational program no one has tried before. Almost $2 billion has been invested in “last mile training” efforts like MissionU, but many young people are still 20 for college.

The picture of miseries and sufferings of the Black woman in America may appear, perhaps darker and more depressing than Dante’s (但丁) description of Hell because in the history of human race, the Black woman in America has suffered the most. A close and critical 21 of the history of the Black woman’s life and condition since her arrival in a strange land will unfold very well the long story of her pain and sorrow 22 her mutilated (被切断的) soul. Since her arrival on the foreign shore, the Black woman has been facing the worst kind of 23 and oppression. As a Black she has had to endure all the horrors of slavery and has been the 24 of continually inhumane treatment in all kinds of work, 25 the lowest place on the wage scale and restricted to the lowest-status and the most uncreative jobs. Since times of slavery, Black womanhood has been destroyed, twisted and abused with racial and inhuman 26 by black men and white men and women. In the process, they have lost their genuine “self”, and have developed a(n) 27 in themselves — though as black women, they see themselves with the eyes of white men and women and black men. This has ultimately been responsible for the destruction of their self-confidence and the feeling of being human. They 28 themselves as masters’ belongings.
As a mother she has seen her children sold into slavery. She has seen them left at home without attention while she 29 to the needs of the children of the ruling class. She has seen her children suffer from drug addiction, the 30 of decent education and experience attacks by a racist society, and 31 the prisons of this nation. In addition, besides suffering the common fate of all oppressed people, the African-American women continue to 32 the oppression of woman by men, which existed for long. In the home she becomes “the slave of a slave”. Men may be cruelly treated and subjected to all sorts of dehumanizing treatment on the part of the ruling class. 33 , at least they can take out their frustration on someone else, their women.
Thus feminism in America means much more than what it stands for in other European countries, chiefly because it has different role and meaning 34 the Black women. If a feminist is commonly defined as one who is involved in transforming and 35 familiar realities, then Black women are innate (天生的) feminists. Black women writing exhibits and constructs a Black women’s literary tradition that is inherently feminist. Barbara Smith, an influential Black feminist critic, states that the ability of Black women to survive in the face of White America exhibits an innate feminist potential.

Section B
Directions: Read the following three passages. Each passage is followed by several questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage you have just read.
(A)
The day I met Hani Irmawati, she was a shy, 17-year-old girl standing alone in the parking lot of the international school in Indonesia, where I teach English. She asked if I could help her improve her English. I could tell it took immense (巨大的) courage for the young Indonesian girl to approach me and ask for help.
“I want to go to a US university,” she said with confidence. I was surprised.
I agreed to work with her on a volunteer basis. For several months, Hani woke each morning at five and caught the city bus to her public high school. During the ride, she studied for her regular classes and the English assignments I had given her. At four o’clock in the afternoon, she arrived at my classroom, exhausted but ready to work.
Hani lived in a two-room house with her parents and two brothers. When I met them at their house, I realized they would never be able to afford the expenses of a US university. Hani’s enthusiasm was increasing with her language ability, but I was becoming more and more discouraged.
One day I received the announcement of a scholarship opportunity for a major US university. After reading the requirements, I knew Hani couldn’t meet the qualifications. I told her that there was only a slim chance of her getting the scholarship and encouraged her to be more “realistic” about her dream. But she remained determined.
“Will you send in my name?” she asked.
I couldn’t turn her down. I completed the application, with the painful truth about her academic life, but also with my praise of her courage and perseverance.
In the weeks that followed, I arranged for her to take the Test of English Fluency in Jakarta. The entire test would be an enormous challenge for someone who had never touched a computer before. For two weeks, we studied how a computer works. Then, just before Hani went to Jakarta, she received a letter from the scholarship association. She had been accepted.
I leaped around the room, overjoyed and shocked. Hani stood by, smiling. I realized that it was I who had learned something Hani had known from the beginning: It is not intelligence alone that brings success, but also the drive to succeed, the commitment to work hard and the courage to believe in yourself.
36.What did the author think of Hani when he first met her?
A.She’s intelligent.
B.She’s unrealistic.
C.She’s courageous.
D.She’s diligent.
37.What made the author feel discouraged?
A.Hani’s slow improvement in English.
B.Hani’s family’s financial situation.
C.Hani’s choice of universities.
D.Hani’s overconfidence in her ability.
38.What happened when Hani applied for the scholarship?
A.The author encouraged her to apply.
B.The author spoke highly of her academic performance.
C.She insisted on having a try despite her disadvantages.
D.She stood out because of her computer skills.
39.What did the author learn from Hani?
A.English opens doors to new opportunities.
B.It is important to dream big and aim high.
C.Confidence and determination are the key to success.
D.A supportive teacher means a lot to students.

Shipping containers are gaining popularity as an alternative to traditional houses. These 20-or 40-foot containers can be obtained for as little as several hundred US dollars a piece, and it’s not surprising that some industry professionals and even city planners consider them the future of home building. Below are details of some amazing homes made out of shipping containers.
London Container City (I and II)
London’s Container City first sprang up in the heart of the docklands in 2001. It took just five months to complete the original 12 work studios. Shortly after that, a fourth floor of studios and living apartments was built on top of these. The first container city was so successful that another—Container City II—was added to it.
Los Angeles Redondo Beach house
With its modern lines and appealing spaces, the award-winning Redondo Beach House is a luxury beachside showpiece built from eight recycled steel shipping containers, along with some traditional building materials. According to the architects, the modified containers are “nearly indestructible”.
Amsterdam Keetwonen
Amsterdam’s massive Keetwonen complex houses 1,000 students and it is the largest container city in the world. The housing project is a roaring success and features units that are quiet and comfortable. Each resident enjoys a bathroom, a kitchen and separate sleeping and studying quarters. The complex even has central heating and high-speed internet as well as areas for parking bikes.
Mexico M2ATK Container House
M2ATK designed this unique container house for an artist. It’s fully equipped with heating and cooling, a kitchen and bathroom. On the bottom floor of the house are “public spaces” such as the kitchen and living room. The second floor are bedrooms, and the top floor is a studio space in which to work, read and “let fly the imagination”.
40.Compared to traditional houses, container houses are________.
A.easier to maintain B.less expensive to build
C.more comfortable to live in D.more fashionable in style
41.What can be learned about Amsterdam’s Keetwonen complex?
A.It is the first container city in the world. B.It’s equipped with modern facilities.
C.It features a luxury and unique style. D.It includes living space and car parks.
42.An architect is designing a container house for a family consisting of a married couple and their five school-age children in Canada. The family requires both public spaces and separate quarters. Which container home can the architect refer to?
A.London Container City (I and II) B.Los Angeles Redondo Beach house
C.Amsterdam Keetwonen D.Mexico M2ATK Container House
(C)
In the fog of uncertainty about how new technology will change the way we work, policymakers around the world say confidently that we will need to upskill the workforce in order to cope. The view sounds reassuringly sensible: if computers are growing smarter, humans will need to learn to use them or be replaced by them. But the truth is, the people who are being “upskilled” in today’s economy are the ones who need it the least.
Research shows that workers with degrees are over three times more likely to participate in training as adults than workers with no qualifications. That creates a virtuous circle for those who did well at school, and a vicious circle for those who did not. If the robots are coming for both the accountants and the taxi drivers, you can bet it is those working with money that will be more able to retrain themselves out of danger, because the better educated tend to have more confidence and money to pay for their own training.
Employers also invest in these workers more. In the UK, a surprising number of employers send their senior managers to business schools. It is no good blaming employers for directing investments at their highly-skilled workers. They are simply aiming for the highest return they can get. And, for some types of lower-paid work, it is not always true that technological progress requires more skills. Sometimes, technology can de-skill a job. Just look at Uber drivers who follow the driving routes set by their app, rather than expanding their own knowledge of the streets. The UK’s latest Employment and Skills Survey suggests the use of literacy and numeracy skills at work has fallen since 2012, even as the use of computers has increased. However, the trouble is, when the computer makes your job easier one day, it might make it redundant the next. Many of those affected by automation will need to switch occupations, or even industries. But a retailer or warehouse company is not going to retrain its staff to help them move to a different sector.
It is time to revisit older ideas. The UK once had a vibrant culture of night schools, for adults to attend after their day jobs. A revival of it could be exactly what the 21st century needs. Rather than just “upskilling” in a narrow way, people could choose to learn an entirely new skill or trade, or explore interests they never had a chance to nurture before.
It is still not clear whether the impact of new technology on the labour market will come in a trickle or a flood. But in an already unequal world, continuing to reserve all the lifeboats for the better-off would be a dangerous mistake.
43.According to the writer, policymakers’ belief in upskilling the workforce __________.
A.is contrary to popular belief B.is helpful in coping with new technology
C.is too difficult to put it into practice D.is not beneficial to those who need it most
44.It can be inferred that workers without qualifications are less likely to __________.
A.have confidence in outperforming those with degrees at school
B.persuade their employers to make an investment in them
C.minimize the risk of job loss caused by new technology
D.assess how new technology will change the way they work
45.The word “redundant” (Para. 3) probably means __________.
A.unnecessary B.undesirable C.unskilled D.unrewarding
46.According to the passage, which of the following conclusion is True?
A.Workers’ literacy and numeracy skills should be enhanced without delay.
B.Night schools can help to eliminate skill gaps among workers.
C.Companies should attach much importance to retraining of workers.
D.Those lower-skilled workers deserve giving more chances of retraining.

How to Become a Scientist
Here is some advice for students who think they might like to become scientists.
Become an observer. One of the most important things you can do to become a good scientist is to practice watching everything carefully. Find a comfortable chair and put it in the middle of your garden or a park. Sit in the chair for thirty minutes or an hour. Watch the insects that fly past or land on the plants. Look at the shapes of leaves and branches. Listen to the sounds of insects. 47 Use a microscope to look closely at interesting objects.
Learn everything you can about a topic that interests you. Suppose you’d like to explore flowers by using a microscope. Go to the library and check out some flower books. See what you can find on the Internet. Pick some flowers and carefully take them apart. 48 The more you know about flowers from reading about them and observing them, the more you’ll understand when you look at them with a microscope.
Ask for help from a knowledgeable person. After you’ve learned everything you can on your own, ask someone else to help with questions you still have. Maybe there’s someone at a nearby school or museum who knows about insects, spiders, or something else you’d like to learn about. 49
Find a scientist to talk to or find a place where scientific research is being done. If you still want to learn more, you can find a scientist to talk to at a nearby university, or research station. 50 Explain what you’re interested in. Ask if you can schedule a time to visit. Most scientists are happy to talk to students who share their passion for science.
A.You may go to seek answers from him.
B.Write a letter or an e-mail message to the scientist.
C.Research your questions using the Internet or library.
D.See if you can find a sight or sound that surprises you.
E.Use a microscope to see how everything fits together.
F.Being a scientist is time-consuming and mentally demanding.
III.Summary Writing(共10分)
51.Directions: Read the following three passages. Summarize the main idea and the main point(s) of the passage in no more than 60 words. Use your own words as far as possible.
Preventing Resistance
The development of drug-resistant pathogens (病原体) can be prevented in at least three ways. First, sufficiently high concentrations of the drug can be maintained in a patient’s body for a long enough time to kill all sensitive cells and hold others long enough for the body’s defenses to defeat them. Discontinuing a drug before all of the pathogens have been neutralized promotes the development of resistance. For this reason, it is important that patients finish their entire antimicrobial prescription (抗菌药物) and resist the temptation to “save some for another day.”
A second way to prevent resistance is to use antimicrobial agents in combination so that pathogens resistant to one drug will be killed by the second, and vice versa. Additionally, one drug sometimes enhances the effect of a second drug in a process called synergism. Enhanced effect can also result from combining an antimicrobial drug and a chemical.
A third way to reduce the development of resistance is to limit the use of antimicrobials to necessary cases. Unfortunately, many antimicrobial agents are used indiscriminately, in both developed countries and in lessdeveloped regions where many are available without a physician’s prescription. In the United States, an estimated 50 percent of prescriptions for antibacterial agents to treat sore throats and 30 percent of prescriptions for ear infections, are inappropriate because the diseases are viral in nature. Likewise, because antibacterial drugs have no effect on cold and flu viruses, 100 percent of antibacterial prescriptions for treating diseases are unnecessary. As discussed previously, the use of antimicrobial agents encourages the reproduction of resistant bacteria by limiting the growth of sensitive cells; therefore, inappropriate use of such drugs increases the likelihood that resistance of bacteria will multiply.
In order to maintain the effectiveness of antimicrobial treatments, responsible practices must be implemented.
