During the first week of his stay, he went out one day to do some shopping. He came back in the late afternoon to discover that his suitcase was gone. He was extremely worried as the suitcase had all his important papers, including his passport. He reported the case to the police and then sat there, lost and lonely in a strange city, thinking of the terrible troubles of getting all the paperwork organized again from a distant country while trying to settle down in a new one. Late in the evening, the phone rang. It was a stranger. He was trying to pronounce my husband’s name and was asking him a lot of questions. Then he said they had found a pile of papers in their trash can(垃圾桶) that had been left out on the footpath. My husband rushed to their home to find a kind family holding all his papers and documents. Their young daughter had gone to the trash can and found a pile of unfamiliar papers. Her parents had carefully sorted them out, although they had found mainly foreign addresses on most of the documents. At last they had seen a half-written letter in the pile in which my husband had given his new telephone number to a friend. That family not only restored the important documents to us that day but also restored our faith and trust in people. We still remember their kindness and often send a warm wish their way. 4. What did Rashid plan to do after his arrival in Sydney? A. Go shopping B. Find a house C. Join his family D. Take a vacation 5. The girl’s parents got Rashid’s phone number from_________. A. a friend of his family B. a Sydney policeman C. a letter in his papers D. a stranger in Sydney 6. What does the underlined word “restored” in the last paragraph mean? A. Showed B. Sent out C. Delivered D. Gave back 7. Which of the following can be the best title for the text? A. From India to Australia. B. Living in a New Country C. Turning Trash to Treasure. D. In Search of New Friends. 【答案】4. B 5. C 6. D 7. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了作者的丈夫丢失的物品被扔到了垃圾箱，但是有一个好心的家庭却把那些文件等整理好送还给作者的丈夫，这些别人眼里的垃圾对作者的丈夫来说非常重要。 【4题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章首段“Arriving in Sydney on his own from India, my husband, Rashid, stayed in a hotel for a short time while looking for a house for me and our children.(我丈夫拉希德独自从印度抵达悉尼，在为我和孩子们寻找房子时，他在一家酒店住了很短时间)”可知，Rashid到了悉尼后，在旅馆待了很短一段时间就出去给家人找房子了。故选B。 【5题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章倒数第二段最后一句话“At last they had seen a half-written letter in the pile in which my husband had given his new telephone number to a friend.(最后，他们看到了一堆写了一半的信，我丈夫把他的新电话号码给了一个朋友。最后，他们看到了一堆写了一半的信，我丈夫把他的新电话号码给了一个朋友)”可知，陌生人一家是通过作者丈夫文件中的一封信里的内容得知他的电话号码的。故选C。 【6题详解】 猜测词义题。根据文章倒数第二段第一句话“My husband rushed to their home to find a kind family holding all his papers and documents.(我丈夫赶到他们家，发现一个和蔼可亲的家庭拿着他的所有文件和文件)”可知，那家人把捡到的文件送还给作者的丈夫，应该是“归还”文件，由此判断该词意思是“归还”。故选D。 【7题详解】 主旨大意题。文章讲述了作者的丈夫丢失的物品被扔到了垃圾箱，但是有一个好心的家庭却把那些文件等整理好送还给作者的丈夫，这些别人眼里的垃圾对作者的丈夫来说非常重要，由此判断C选项“把垃圾变成财富”能体现文章中心，适合作本文的标题。故选C。 C 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 pursue 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. 8. How does the author support his argument in paragraph 2? A. By listing examples. B. By showing contrast. C. By including a quote. D. By sharing his experience. 9. How did Sanders probably feel when offered his first social security check? A. Deeply moved. B. Pleasantly surprised. C. Greatly relieved. D. Internally motivated. 10. What does the author suggest we do? A. Pursue our passion. B. Get a well-paid job. C. Secure our position. D. Get career guidance. 11. What is the best title for this text? A. Passion or Pension? B. Following Your Dreams C. Working for Pension D. To Work or not to Work? 【答案】8. B 9. D 10. A 11. A 【解析】 【分析】这是一篇夹叙夹议的文章。文章通过对比和引用KFC创始人Colonel Harland Sanders的故事阐明一个观点——真正的经济安全和自由不在于我们的工作，而在于激情。 【8题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段“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.”（在生活中，我们总是被发现做这两件事中的一种：要么谋生，要么做出改变。养老金和薪水阻止了很多人追求卓越，而激情解锁了很多隐藏的潜力，这些潜力让我们能够面对挑战和机遇）可推知，本段作者通过对比稳定的收入和激情对人们的影响来支撑自己的观点——真正的经济安全和自由不在于我们的工作，而在于激情。故选B。 【9题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段的“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.”（但他决定，于其靠那点养老金生活，还不如为自己和别人做点什么。他决定投身于能够给他带来影响和价值的事业）可知，当Sanders拿到退休金时，他决定做一些对自己和他人都有用的事情，投身于能够给自己带来影响和价值的事业。由此推知，Sanders的内心受到了激发。故选D。 【10题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段的“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.”（我想真诚地帮助调整和澄清工作者中被误导的信念，即工作是谋生的手段。相反，它应该是一种点燃激情的手段）和最后一段的“The success of Kentucky Fried Chicken（KFC）shows how meaningful it is to pursue your passion instead of your pension.”（KFC的成功表明了追求你的热情而非养老经是多么有意义的。）“two, there is nothing too small or insignificant to make a difference with, as long as it is your passion.”（2.没有什么东西太小或者太不重要而不能改变，只要是你的热情。）可推知，作者建议人们追求自己的热情。故选A。 【11题详解】 主旨大意题。根据文章的主要内容，尤其是第二段的“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.（在生活中，我们总是被发现做这两件事中的一种：要么谋生，要么做出改变。养老金和薪水阻止了很多人追求卓越，而激情解锁了很多隐藏的潜力，这些潜力让我们能够面对挑战和机遇）”可知，文章主要阐明了作者关于稳定的收入让人停止进取，而激情却能让人迸发潜力的观点。故“激情还是养老金？”可以作为本文标题。故选A。 D Thanks to technology development, healthcare services are more accessible than ever. Hospitals have committed to digitally enabled care going mainstream and more health services have gone online than ever before. But are older people who don’t use the Internet being left behind? A study by Lancaster University found that lots of older people still avoid online life completely or use the Internet only on occasion. There are various reasons why older people don’t use the Internet. For many, a lack of confidence in their own ability to use technology raised fears about security, particularly with online banking. Whatever the reasons are, one of the biggest concerns about an off line older generation is the likelihood that they will miss out on big developments in health accessibility, especially as many useful health services move online. Madeleine Starr MBE, director of business development and innovation at Carers UK, said, “Though many of us use technology in our everyday lives, seven out of ten people don’t yet think of technology when it comes to caring. So, many are not yet realizing the benefits of this technology. Accessing appointments, ordering prescriptions (处方) or having consultations online can all help reduce visits to doctors and unplanned hospital visits.” In an aging society, the Internet can make a huge amount of difference to older people requiring a bit of extra support and those caring for them. “Advice from specialist websites or symptom checkers is great for those who are unsure if their symptoms are cause for concern or find it difficult to get to a doctor’s appointment. Technology is making it easier to offer remote care and support for older people, helping them remain independent. The information on the Internet can prevent older people from taking their health into their own hands,” adds Caroline Abrahams, charity director at Age UK. However, services need to remain accessible to those who aren’t online. While it’s fine to support older people getting online, those who choose not to or cannot do so, for whatever reason, should not be treated like second-class citizens. They must still be able to access services in other ways that suit them. 12. What is the main purpose of paragraph 1? A. To list some important facts. B. To raise a topic to be discussed. C. To express the main idea of the text. D. To introduce new advances in science. 13. What might be the big concern about off line older people? A. They will suffer from terrible loneliness. B. They will face risks from online banking. C. They will fail to benefit from advanced online healthcare. D. They will underestimate the role of modern technology in healthcare. 14. Why does the author mention Caroline Abrahams’ words in paragraph 4? A. To stress the popularity of the Internet. B. To reveal technology is developing very fast now. C. To indicate the big challenges an aging society faces. D. To show the Internet is of great importance to older people. 15. What is the message the author wants to convey in the last paragraph? A. Health services should get support from professionals. B. Older people should be encouraged to place their health first. C. Older people should receive some training in using the Internet. D. Health services should be offered in ways that suit different people. 【答案】12. B 13. C 14. D 15. D 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。随着科学技术的发展，医疗保健服务比以往任何时候都更容易获得。然而，许多不会上网的老年人可能会错过重要机会，这应该怎样解决呢？ 【12题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段“Thanks to technology development, healthcare services are more accessible than ever. Hospitals have committed to digitally enabled care going mainstream and more health services have gone online than ever before. But are older people who don’t use the Internet being left behind?(由于技术的发展，医疗保健服务比以往任何时候都更容易获得。医院已致力于使数字化护理成为主流，比以往任何时候都有更多的医疗服务上线。但是，不上网的老年人会被抛在后面吗？)”以及下文内容可知，第一段提出问题：不上网的老年人是否会被科技的发展所抛下？接下来全文主要围绕这一主题展开讨论。即第1段的主要目的是提出一个要讨论的话题。故选B。 【13题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“Whatever the reasons are, one of the biggest concerns about an off line older generation is the likelihood that they will miss out on big developments in health accessibility, especially as many useful health services move online.(不管原因是什么，对不上网的老一辈最大的担忧之一是，他们可能会错过卫生服务可及性方面的重大发展，尤其是在许多有用的卫生服务转向网上的情况下)”可知，作者认为不上网的老年人将无法从网上医疗中受益，他们会错过网上医疗带来的好处。故选C。 【14题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段“In an aging society, the Internet can make a huge amount of difference to older people requiring a bit of extra support and those caring for them. “Advice from specialist websites or symptom checkers is great for those who are unsure if their symptoms are cause for concern or find it difficult to get to a doctor’s appointment. Technology is making it easier to offer remote care and support for older people, helping them remain independent. The information on the Internet can prevent older people from taking their health into their own hands,” adds Caroline Abrahams, charity director at Age UK. (在一个老龄化的社会，互联网可以对那些需要一点额外支持的老年人和照顾他们的人产生巨大的影响。“对于那些不确定自己的症状是否值得关注或很难去看医生的人来说，来自专业网站或症状检查者的建议非常有用。”科技使为老年人提供远程护理和支持变得更加容易，帮助他们保持独立。互联网上的信息可能会阻止老年人将自己的健康掌握在自己手中，”Age UK的慈善主管卡罗琳·亚伯拉罕斯补充道。)”可知，这一段作者引用Caroline Abrahams所说的话强调了网上医疗对老年人的重要性。故选D。 【15题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“However, services need to remain accessible to those who aren’t online. While it’s fine to support older people getting online, those who choose not to or cannot do so, for whatever reason, should not be treated like second-class citizens. They must still be able to access services in other ways that suit them.(然而，服务需要对那些不上网的人保持可访问性。虽然支持老年人上网是好的，但那些选择不上网或不能上网的人，无论出于何种原因，都不应该被视为二等公民。他们仍然必须能够以适合他们的其他方式访问服务)”可知，作者认为应该给不同的人提供合适的医疗服务。故选D。 第二节（共5小题，每小题2分，满分10分） 阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 With gas prices rising and airport security lines snaking longer than ever, why not book your next domestic vacation on a train? Compared to other alternatives, it’s comfortable and relaxing. Here is some advice on how to make a trip by rail as pleasant as possible. Plan ahead. Most long-distance trains, especially the sleeping car accommodations, sell out very quickly. ____16____ But no matter when you travel, it’s a good idea to make your reservations at least 90 days in advance. Use a travel agent. Consider turning your travel plan over to a travel agent and letting him double-check all the details, make suggestions, and then handle the actual reservations. A good one can sometimes find you discounted tickets. ____17____ Then you won’t have to walk through several cars on a moving train three times a day for your meals. Bring a blanket. When you’re riding on trains, you won’t be provided with a blanket for free, even if your trip is an overnight one. ____18____ In the summer in particular, the air conditioning can make them quite cold. Arrive early. Most trains operate just once a day and some run only three times a week, so missing yours can be a disaster. ____19____ Note: The times listed on the schedules are departure times, not arrival times. Have fun. ____20____ Read a book, knit, do a crossword puzzle, or simply watch the world unfold outside the window. To calculate your speed as you do, divide 3,600(the number of seconds in an hour)by the number of seconds it takes you to travel one mile(the distance between two mileposts). If it takes the train 53 seconds to travel one mile, you’re going 67.92 mph. A. Train trips aren’t for impatient types. B. You’ll have views from both sides of the train. C. The temperature on rail cars is often hard to control. D. That’s particularly true during busy summer months. E. You might have to wait longer than 24 hours to catch the next one. F. Chances are that the cost will be a lot less than the cost of one bedroom. G. He may also book you in a sleeping car that’s right next to the diner. 【答案】16. D 17. G 18. C 19. E 20. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是说明文。文章讲述一些关于如何使坐火车旅行尽可能愉快的建议。 【16题详解】 根据上文“Plan ahead. Most long-distance trains, especially the sleeping car accommodations, sell out very quickly.(提前计划。大多数长途火车，尤其是卧铺，很快就卖光了。)”以及下文“But no matter when you travel, it’s a good idea to make your reservations at least 90 days in advance. (但无论你什么时候去旅行，最好至少提前90天预订。)”可知，大多数长途火车的卧铺很容易被定完，所以要提前安排预定，D项“在繁忙的夏季尤其如此。”符合语境，D项中“busy summer months”与前后文呼应，说明忙碌的夏季尤其需要提前计划。故选D项。 【17题详解】 根据上文“A good one can sometimes find you discounted tickets. (一个好的旅行社有时可以帮你找到打折的票。)”以及下文“Then you won’t have to walk through several cars on a moving train three times a day for your meals. (这样你就不必为了吃饭而每天三次在行驶的火车上穿过几节车厢了。)”可知，好的旅行社帮你预定，不仅可以找到打折的票，还可以节省从卧铺到餐车的距离，G项中“book you in a sleeping car that’s right next to the diner”与前后文对应，因此推断G项“他可能还会给你预订餐厅旁边的卧铺车厢。”符合语境。故选G项。 【18题详解】 根据上文“When you’re riding on trains, you won’t be provided with a blanket for free, even if your trip is an overnight one.(当你乘坐火车时，你不会免费获得一条毯子，即使你的旅行是过夜的。)”以及下文“In the summer in particular, the air conditioning can make them quite cold. (特别是在夏天，空调会让他们很冷。)”可知，这里提到了车厢内温度的问题，提醒乘客最好自备毛毯，C项中“The temperature on rail cars”与前后文对应，因此推断C项“列车上的温度通常很难控制。”符合语境。故选C项。 【19题详解】 根据上文“Most trains operate just once a day and some run only three times a week, so missing yours can be a disaster.(大多数火车每天只开一趟，有些火车一周只开三趟，所以错过你的火车可能是一场灾难。)”以及下文“Note: The times listed on the schedules are departure times, not arrival times. (注意:时刻表上列出的时间是出发时间，不是到达时间。)”可知，本段提醒要提前安排时间，错过时间是很麻烦的事情，E项中“You might have to wait longer”与前后文对应，说明错过火车导致的结果，因此推断E项“你可能要等上超过24小时才能赶上下一班。”符合语境。故选E项。 【20题详解】 根据上文“Have fun.(玩得开心)”以及下文“To calculate your speed as you do, divide 3,600(the number of seconds in an hour)by the number of seconds it takes you to travel one mile(the distance between two mileposts).”(要计算你的速度，用3600(一小时的秒数)除以你走一英里(两个里程碑之间的距离)所花费的秒数。)”可知，本段讲述如何度过乘车时间，A项中讲到火车旅行不适合没有耐心的人与后文要计算时间，用不同的方式打发时间对应，符合语境。故选A项。 【点睛】 第二部分 语言运用 (共六节，满分50分) 第一节（共15小题；每小题1分，满分15分） 阅读下面短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 Neil Anthony Aban is a 30-year-old farmer from the eastern Philippines.

I was so afraid of it and there was no way that I was going to control that monster-sized material. The bicycle was left in my backyard as a decoration for a month because I refused to ride it. Honestly, I was scared to try it. After a month, my dad gave me a lecture to teach me what being a man was all about. I was finally determined to try it. My dad was proud of me and I felt very manly. He and I went to the park to see what we could do there. The park was empty when we arrived. I had no doubt that my dad told everybody not to be there because we had to use it. I felt sorry for other people, but I was proud to have such an capable person as my dad. We found a smooth and open space. My dad was holding the back part of the seat to make sure I didn’t fell. He promised me that I was not going to fall because he would be running right behind, holding the bicycle. 注意： 1. 续写词数应为 150 左右： 2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 I started to pedal and the bicycle moved. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ I turned around and found my dad was not behind. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】A possible version I started to pedal and the bicycle moved. As the wheels responded beautifully and smoothly, it was for the first time that I felt this sensation of freewheeling. Carefully steering the bicycle, my heart thumped as the bicycle was accelerating. Attempting to behave manly, I sat straight, pedaling and wondering whether and when I could handle the bike on my own. Minutes ticked by before it hit me that my dad would be worn out after following me for such a long distance. “Dad, you could let go if you are tired.” I yelled. No response! I turned around and found my dad was not behind. My mind going blank, I was scared out of wits! I landed on the road and fell off the bike before I knew where the brakes were. Luckily, I only got some scratches on the knees and elbows. Minutes later, my dad caught up and congratulated me on my being manly for cycling 50 yards on my own. After a few more hours’ practice I learnt how to pedal, steer, turn and brake properly. A little frightening as the experience was, I felt the joy of learning to do something independently and grateful for the meaningful memory with my father. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了作者和在和爸爸就过去的时光进行了一次非常有意义的交谈后，他们想出了一件他们都记得很清楚的东西。就是作者的第一辆自行车以及作者第一次骑自行车的经历。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“我开始踩踏板，自行车就动了。”可知，第一段可描写作者在爸爸的帮助下，作者骑走了自行车。但作者担心爸爸累，要求爸爸松手。 ②由第二段首句内容“我转过身，发现爸爸不在后面。”可知，第二段可描写爸爸想放开手让作者独自骑行，作者通过反复的练习，慢慢的开始会骑自行车了。 2.续写线索：我骑走自行车——担心爸爸累——发现爸爸不在——我摔倒——爸爸教——反复练习——学会骑车 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①(心)怦怦跳：thump /pound ②操控：handle /control /operate ③转身：turn around / turn back 情绪类 ①害怕：scared /frightened ②愉快：joy /pleasure ③感激的：grateful /thankful 【点睛】 [高分句型1].

During the first week of his stay he went out one day to do some shopping. He came back in the late afternoon to discover that his suitcase was gone. He was extremely worried as the suitcase had all his important papers, including his passport. He reported the case to the police and then sat there, lost and lonely in a strange city, thinking of the terrible troubles of getting all the paperwork organized again from a distant country while trying to settle down in a new one. Late in the evening, the phone rang. It was a stranger. He was trying to pronounce my husband’s name and was asking him a lot of questions. Then he said they had found a pile of papers in their trash can(垃圾桶) that had been left out on the footpath. My husband rushed to their home to find a kind family holding all his papers and documents. Their young daughter had gone to the trash can and found a pile of unfamiliar papers. Her parents had carefully sorted them out, although they had found mainly foreign addresses on most of the documents. At last they had seen a half-written letter in the pile in which my husband had given his new telephone number to a friend. That family not only restored the important documents to us that day but also restored our faith and trust in people. We still remember their kindness and often send a warm wish their way. 4. What did Rashid plan to do after his arrival in Sydney? A. Go shopping B. Find a house C. Join his family D. Take a vacation 5. The girl’s parents got Rashid’s phone number from_________. A. a friend of his family B. a Sydney policeman C. a letter in his papers D. a stranger in Sydney 6. What does the underlined word “restored” in the last paragraph mean? A. Showed B. Sent out C. Delivered D. Gave back 7. Which of the following can be the best title for the text? A. From India to Australia. B. Living in a New Country C. Turning Trash to Treasure. D. In Search of New Friends. C 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 pursue 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. 8. How does the author support his argument in paragraph 2? A. By listing examples. B. By showing contrast. C. By including a quote. D. By sharing his experience. 9 How did Sanders probably feel when offered his first social security check? A. Deeply moved. B. Pleasantly surprised. C. Greatly relieved. D. Internally motivated. 10. What does the author suggest we do? A. Pursue our passion. B. Get a well-paid job. C. Secure our position. D. Get career guidance. 11. What is the best title for this text? A. Passion or Pension? B. Following Your Dreams C. Working for Pension D. To Work or not to Work? D Thanks to technology development, healthcare services are more accessible than ever. Hospitals have committed to digitally enabled care going mainstream and more health services have gone online than ever before. But are older people who don’t use the Internet being left behind? A study by Lancaster University found that lots of older people still avoid online life completely or use the Internet only on occasion. There are various reasons why older people don’t use the Internet. For many, a lack of confidence in their own ability to use technology raised fears about security, particularly with online banking. Whatever the reasons are, one of the biggest concerns about an off line older generation is the likelihood that they will miss out on big developments in health accessibility, especially as many useful health services move online. Madeleine Starr MBE, director of business development and innovation at Carers UK, said, “Though many of us use technology in our everyday lives, seven out of ten people don’t yet think of technology when it comes to caring. So, many are not yet realizing the benefits of this technology. Accessing appointments, ordering prescriptions (处方) or having consultations online can all help reduce visits to doctors and unplanned hospital visits.” In an aging society, the Internet can make a huge amount of difference to older people requiring a bit of extra support and those caring for them. “Advice from specialist websites or symptom checkers is great for those who are unsure if their symptoms are cause for concern or find it difficult to get to a doctor’s appointment. Technology is making it easier to offer remote care and support for older people, helping them remain independent. The information on the Internet can prevent older people from taking their health into their own hands,” adds Caroline Abrahams, charity director at Age UK. However, services need to remain accessible to those who aren’t online. While it’s fine to support older people getting online, those who choose not to or cannot do so, for whatever reason, should not be treated like second-class citizens. They must still be able to access services in other ways that suit them. 12. What is the main purpose of paragraph 1? A. To list some important facts. B. To raise a topic to be discussed. C. To express the main idea of the text. D. To introduce new advances in science. 13. What might be the big concern about off line older people? A. They will suffer from terrible loneliness. B. They will face risks from online banking. C. They will fail to benefit from advanced online healthcare. D They will underestimate the role of modern technology in healthcare. 14. Why does the author mention Caroline Abrahams’ words in paragraph 4? A. To stress the popularity of the Internet. B. To reveal technology is developing very fast now. C. To indicate the big challenges an aging society faces. D. To show the Internet is of great importance to older people. 15. What is the message the author wants to convey in the last paragraph? A. Health services should get support from professionals. B. Older people should be encouraged to place their health first. C. Older people should receive some training in using the Internet. D. Health services should be offered in ways that suit different people. 第二节（共5小题，每小题2分，满分10分） 阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 With gas prices rising and airport security lines snaking longer than ever, why not book your next domestic vacation on a train? Compared to other alternatives, it’s comfortable and relaxing. Here is some advice on how to make a trip by rail as pleasant as possible. Plan ahead. Most long-distance trains, especially the sleeping car accommodations, sell out very quickly. ____16____ But no matter when you travel, it’s a good idea to make your reservations at least 90 days in advance.

A good one can sometimes find you discounted tickets. ____17____ Then you won’t have to walk through several cars on a moving train three times a day for your meals. Bring a blanket.

Arrive early. Most trains operate just once a day and some run only three times a week, so missing yours can be a disaster. ____19____ Note: The times listed on the schedules are departure times, not arrival times. Have fun. ____20____ Read a book, knit, do a crossword puzzle, or simply watch the world unfold outside the window.

It was my first bicycle. My mind told me I got it when I was seven, who was cheated to ride it for fifty yards alone the first time I tried! My dad put together all the small pieces of the bicycle from a beautiful material that he called, “Your own car.” Of course I knew he had some magical ability, but I didn’t think he could make such an awesome object. He added the seat and the pedals (脚踏板) so that I would not have any problems. My dad recalled the bicycle was the smallest he could find while I remember how huge it was. I was so afraid of it and there was no way that I was going to control that monster-sized material. The bicycle was left in my backyard as a decoration for a month because I refused to ride it. Honestly, I was scared to try it. After a month, my dad gave me a lecture to teach me what being a man was all about. I was finally determined to try it. My dad was proud of me and I felt very manly.
