In the UK, the third season of the year usually has only one name: autumn. But if you travel across the Atlantic, you’ll find that people use both fall and autumn interchangeably when referring to this time of year. As you can see, in the English language, the season has two widely accepted names. So what is it about the season that makes it so special? “Fall” isn’t a modern name. The two words are actually first recorded at the same time. Before either word appeared in the dictionary, the season between summer and winter was known as harvest in old English. The word means the act of gathering and keeping crops(庄稼) before winter. In the 1500s, English speakers tried to describe the third season. By the end of the 1600s, autumn, from the French word “autompne” and the Latin “autumnus”, had become the British term for the third season. Around the same time, British travelled to North America and brought the two words there. So today Americans are still using both words to describe the season. 3. What does the underlined word “interchangeably” mean in Chinese? A. 交替地 B. 同时地 C. 规范地 4. Why did people use “harvest” to name the third season of the year? A. It was the season to plant crops. B. It was the season to gather crops. C. It was the season to begin the hot days. 5. What do we know about the two names from the second paragraph? A. Fall is a modern name and autumn is old. B. Both fall and autumn are from old English. C. Fall and autumn appeared as seasons’ names at the same time. 6. What is this passage about? A. The reason why English is widely spread. B. The history of the two names of the third season. C. The development of the English language. C Last year, Zhang Kunpeng started to work at Marie Claire. It took him about a month to ask his partners for the password to the office Wi-Fi. “I don’t want to start conversations with people I don’t know well. I just want to sit alone, doing the work,” Zhang said. The 21-year-old prefers to talk to his partners online, which makes him feel more comfortable. Like Zhang, many young people are experiencing social anxiety(焦虑). They will feel uneasy when they have face-to-face conversations with others, because they have got used to having conversations online. A recent survey made by China Youth Daily among 2,000 people aged 18 to 35 found that 26.7% of people have difficulty with real-life social interaction(互动), and 17% have problems with such interaction online. 20.5% have problems interacting with others online and offline. The survey also found that 40% avoid social interaction. Why do the young people avoid social interaction? Experts say the main reasons include facing too much pressure from daily life, having less social experience, courage and confidence, and having a small social circle. ★ They always worry about what others think of them. They also fear they might not live up to what others expect. The expert also says one of the most powerful ways to deal with social anxiety is to put down your phone and start more face-to-face communication. 7. What is the first paragraph mainly about? A. Zhang had a hard time finding jobs. B. Zhang has social anxiety. C. Zhang is crazy about online games. 8. What is the main reason for young people avoiding social interaction according to exports? ①having a small social circle ②facing too much pressure from daily life ③having too comfortable environment ④having less social experience, courage and confidence A. ②③④ B. ①②③ C. ①②④ 9. Which of the following can be put into ★ ? A. There are lots of reasons for the anxiety. B. An expert says social anxiety often happens to teenagers. C. Social anxiety illness seriously influences people’s daily life. 10. In which part of the newspaper can we read the passage? A. Heath B. Sports C. Culture 第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分） 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。每个选项仅使用一次。 If someone says you are smart, what do they mean? Is it a good thing or a bad thing? 11. __________________. That’s because the word “smart” has many meanings. For example, someone could say you look smart. That means they like what you are wearing. 12. __________________. For example, if you fall off your bike and hurt your leg, you might shout, “Ouch, that smarts!” But the most common meaning of “smart” is to be very clever. So when your friends get good grades at school, we can call them “smart”. Being smart, however, goes beyond the classroom. 13. __________________. Some people are book smart. They have attended school for many years and have many degrees. They are well-read. They often know the names of great thinkers, scientists and other famous people in history. They know facts and information that many other people don’t. 14. __________________. Sometimes book-smart people are not so smart when it comes to life skills and social skills. They may not be able to deal with people or real-life problems as well as street-smart people. Street-smart people may not have read too many books, but they also have something valuable — the ability to use their experience in many different situations. 15. _______________. Whether you are book smart, street smart or both, being smart is a good thing. A. People can be smart in different ways B. The answer is not as easy as you might think C. However, being book smart is not everything D. They are good at dealing with practical problems E.

Ⅲ．综合技能（共两节，满分25分） 第一节 简答（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分） 阅读下面短文，根据短文内容回答问题。 Nowadays, people use computers to do a lot of things every day, like searching for information and sending e-mails. But none of them would go well without the computer mouse(鼠标). The first computer mouse appeared in 1964, invented by Douglas Engelbart. It was mainly made up of a wooden “house”, a circuit(电路) board and two metal wheels. Engelbart called his invention the “Bug”. But the long “tail” on the back made it look like a mouse, so the name became well-known soon. Eight years later, Bill English, an American computer engineer, developed the mouse further. He changed the wheels into a rolling(滚动的) ball at the bottom of the mouse. The “Ball Mouse” was easier to use and could be found in lots of offices. It had its problems, though. For example, the ball became dirty easily from rolling round the desktop. The dirt had to be often cleaned out to keep the ball running well. The disadvantages led to the next development around 1980. Then the optical mouse(光学鼠标) was invented. However, the optical mouse wasn’t widely used because it was too expensive. The computer mouse has come a long way since its invention. It has been improved many times to meet the changing needs of users. But with the rise of touch screens and voice control, some experts think the computer mouse may disappear in the future. However, some people think it will still have a market. 36. What was the first computer mouse mainly made up of? 37. How did Bill English improve the mouse? 38. What was the problem with the “Ball Mouse”? 39. Why wasn’t the optical mouse widely used? 40. Do you think the mouse will disappear in the future? Why or why not? 第二节 单词默写 (共35小题；每小题1分，满分35分) 根据以下中文释义和词性，默写相对应的英文单词， 41. _______ adj. 平均的 42. _______ n. 运动员 43. _______ v. 出生；诞生；产生(仅用于被动语态) adj. 天生的 44. _______ n. & v. 挑战 45. _______ n. 信心；信赖 46. _______ n. 交谈；谈话；对话 47. _______ n. & v. 咳嗽 48. _______ n. 勇敢；勇气；胆量 49. _______ adv. & adj. 每日；每天；日常的 50. _______ n. 危险；风险 51. _______ adj. 死的；失去生命的 52. _______ adv. 光亮地；明亮地 adj. 明亮的；光线充足的；耀眼的 53. _______ v. 造成；引起 54. _______ n.
