Huang Xi's journey started on Aug 3 from Xiaochang county, Hubei, spreading the message of environmental protection to over 5, 000 people along his route.Huang said it was not very easy to start a conversation about environmental protection with strangers."First you have to narrow the distance between you and your audience, " he noted.For instance, he would greet people at the roadside and introduce himself and his plan.He told Shanghai Observer that the environmental issue was not a good conversation opener because not everyone was interested. Straw burning(秸秆焚烧) was a major focus for Huang since his journey began in summer."Many people don't burn straw because there s a fine, but not many of them know that burning straw actually pollutes the environment,” he said. Explaining the ban on straw burning, the benefits of sorting of waste as well as the importance of creatures in water and plants protection were the major part of his job on the road. 16 local authorities of environmental protection along Huang's route praised his efforts."Environmental protection calls for not only governmental efforts but also social efforts, " said Chen Bin, an official from Wuhan's environmental department. Huang shared his experience on social media, which gave him a level of support on his journey. However, his cycle also drew the bad side of comments.Some said that his journey was only a publicity stunt (作秀), and some even said that in fact, it was a trip that Huang had to make since he ran out of his money at Internet cafes.Huang replied and tried to prove that what they said was not true. Huang, who studies environmental engineering in college, set off again on Sept 27 to take part in a training camp held by a center of environmental protection in Hubei province."I will will share my experience of the journey, and hope people will pay more attention to the environment.” he said. 4.

Even experts in education think that the first goal of education is to encourage a love of learning. There is therefore the possibility of something wrong with the way students are taught here. Why should they read literature? Do stories have value compared with the reading and learning of facts? Studies show clearly that the most powerful ways of learning are by experience, action and doing experiments and taking risks. Yet there are so many important things to learn that cannot be learned in these ways: feelings, problem solving, danger and relationships, for example. Research into this has shown how deep reading is a valuable experience different to a learning of words or facts. Keen( 热心的) readers of -literature show a better understanding of others. Their abilities to make good decisions are raised. Young children who enjoy a parent reading stories to them show greater awareness（意识) when they reach school age. The best schools do seem to provide a limited (有限的) chance to enjoy literature, usually about the Chinese classic stories but there is not enough "free" time for students. There are enough reading materials (材料). Chinese book shops are full of story books, and most of them are of good quality (质量) in terms of content,plot (情节) and language. Was there not a Chinese author who received a Nobel Prize for literature recently? There are moves in Chinese education to promote (提升) decision making and shared values. The value of literature is helpful to these as well as to the future of China. 8. What does the author think of the way students are educated in China? A. He is proud of it. B. He is interested in it. C. He doesn't quite accept it. D. He is confident about it. 9. Which is not among the most powerful ways of learning according to paragraph 2? A. By experience. B. By taking risks. C. By reading deeply. D. By doing experiments. 10. What can be learned from the last paragraph? A. Reading literature helps develop good values. B. Chinese students like reading stories as they get older. C. Stories in Chinese bookstores are generally of poor quality. D. Chinese students have no chance to read enough materials. 11. What's the main idea of the text? A. Literature is a kind of art. B. Reading literature should be valued. C. Good reading materials are in great need. D. Something is wrong with Chinese education. 【答案】8. C 9. C 10. A 11. B 【解析】 【分析】这是一篇说明文。文章主要说明了阅读文学作品应当受到重视，以及阅读文学作品的原因。最后作者指出文学的价值不仅有助于促进决策制定和价值观共享的举措，而且有助于中国的未来。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段中There is therefore the possibility of something wrong with the way students are taught here.（因此，这里的学生的教育方式可能有问题。）可知作者不太接受中国学生的教育方式。故选C。 【9题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段Studies show clearly that the most powerful ways of learning are by experience, action and doing experiments and taking risks.（研究清楚地表明，最有效的学习方法是通过经验、行动、实验和冒险。）可知深入阅读的学习方法不是最有效的。故选C。 【10题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段中There are moves in Chinese education to promote decision making and shared values. The value of literature is helpful to these as well as to the future of China.（中国的教育中有一些促进决策制定和价值观共享的举措。文学的价值不仅有助于这些，而且有助于中国的未来。）可知阅读文学有助于培养良好的价值观。故选A。 【11题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第一段第一句The importance of reading literature often seems lost on many Chinese people.（许多中国人似乎忽视了阅读文学作品的重要性。）以及最后一段中There are moves in Chinese education to promote decision making and shared values. The value of literature is helpful to these as well as to the future of China.（中国的教育中有一些促进决策制定和价值观共享的举措。文学的价值不仅有助于这些，而且有助于中国的未来。）结合文章主要内容为说明阅读文学作品的重要性，故可知文章的主旨大意是阅读文学作品应该受到重视。故选B。 D Many leading AI researchers think that in a matter of decades, artificial intelligence will be able to do not merely some of our jobs, but all of our jobs, forever transforming life on the earth. The reason why many people reject this as science fiction is that we’ve traditionally thought of intelligence as something mysterious that can only exist in biological organisms,especially humans. But such an idea is unscientific. From my point of view as a physicist and AI researcher, intelligence is simply a certain kind of information-processing performed by elementary particles (基本粒子) moving around,and there is no law of physics that says one can’t build machines more intelligent than us in all ways. This suggests that we’ve only seen the tip of the intelligence iceberg and that there is an amazing potential to unlock the full intelligence that is potential in nature and use it to help humanity. If we get it right, the upside is huge. Since everything we love about civilization is the product of intelligence, amplifying our own intelligence with AI has the potential to solve tomorrow’s toughest problems. For example, why risk our loved ones dying in traffic accidents that self-driving cars could prevent or dying of cancers that AI might help us find cures for? Why not increase productivity through automation and use AI to accelerate our research and development of affordable sustainable (可持续的) energy? I’m optimistic that we can develop rapidly with advanced AI as long as we win the race between the growing power of our technology and the knowledge with which we manage it. But this requires giving up our outdated concept of learning from mistakes. That helped us win the race with less powerful technology. We messed up with fire and then invented fire extinguishers (灭火器), and we messed up with cars and then invented seat belts. However, it’s an awful idea for more powerful technologies, such as nuclear weapons or super intelligent AI-where even a single mistake is unacceptable and we need to get things right the first time. 12. How do many people feel about leading AI researchers’ predictions? A. Worried. B. Curious. C. Doubtful. D. Disappointed. 13. What does the author think of intelligence? A. We know little about it. B. It belongs to human beings. C. It is too difficult to understand. D. We have a good command of it. 14. What does the underlined word “upside” in Paragraph 4 probably mean? A. Cost. B. Potential. C. Quantity. D. Advantage. 15. What’s important for us in the race between people and technology? A. Learning from failure. B. Increasing our intelligence. C. Avoiding making mistakes. D. Making accurate predictions. 【答案】12. C 13. A 14. D 15. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇议论文。文章主要论述了正确认识并恰当利用人工智能以使其造福人类的问题。 【12题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段中的“The reason why many people reject this as science fiction is that we’ve traditionally thought of intelligence as something mysterious that can only exist in biological organisms, especially humans. (许多人之所以将其视为科幻小说，是因为我们传统上认为智力是一种神秘的东西，只能存在于生物有机体中，尤其是人类)”可推知，很多人不相信A1研究者的预言，认为那更像是科幻小说。故选C项。 【13题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中的“we’ve only seen the tip of the intelligence iceberg. (我们只看到了情报冰山的一角)”可知，作者认为，人类对智能的认识还只是冰山一角。故选A项。 【14题详解】 词句猜测题。根据划线词后句“Since everything we love about civilization is the product of intelligence, amplifying our own intelligence with AI has the potential to solve tomorrow’s toughest problems. (由于我们热爱文明的一切都是智能的产物，因此利用人工智能增强我们自己的智能有潜力解决明天最棘手的问题)”可知，此句“If we get it right, the upside is huge.”意为“如果我们做对了，优势是巨大的”。由此推知，划线词upside意为“好的一面，优势”，相当于advantage。故选D项。 【15题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段中“we can develop rapidly with advanced AI...giving up our outdated concept of learning from mistakes. (我们可以与先进的AI一起快速发展……放弃我们过时的从错误中学习的观念)”可知，作者认为，赢得这场比赛的关键在于抛弃“从错误中学习”的过时理念。故选C项。 第二节七选五(共5小题; 每小题2.5分, 满分12.5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。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Last week, we talked about how to start and organize your English Club.

G 17. E 18. C 19. F 20. B 【解析】 【分析】本文是一篇选句填空。文章说明了英语俱乐部热身活动的目的，分享了几种英语俱乐部有趣的热身活动。 【16题详解】 上文提到Warm-up activities are good ways to start any club meeting.（热身活动是开始任何俱乐部聚会的好方法）；G项意思为“热身活动能帮助人们放松并准备开始说英语”，是对上文提到的“热身活动是很好的方法”的进一步说明。故选G。 【17题详解】 根据下文Two of the facts are true, and one is a lie.（其中两个事实是真实的，一个是谎言）可知，这种热身活动是要想出三个事实。E项意思为“有一个人提出了三个关于自己的事实”，与下文的They tell the group the three facts相呼应。故选E。 【18题详解】 根据该段下文的内容“tell everyone to think of a person, place or thing and write it down on a piece of paper. Collect the pieces of paper and mix them around in a big bowl.（让每个人想到一个人、一个地方或者一件事，把它写在一张纸上。把纸片收集起来，在一个大碗里混合。）”可知，该段是介绍另一种热身活动。C项意思为“另一个热身活动是沙拉碗”，是说明这种热身活动的名称。故选C。 【19题详解】 根据上文Each team then takes turns having one person go to the front of the room to take a piece of paper（然后，每个小组轮流让一个人到房间前面拿一张纸）；F项紧接着说明热身游戏的进一步玩法“然后这个人必须向其他团队成员描述这个词”。F项中的the person即是指上一句中的one person。故选F。 【20题详解】 上文提到There are hundreds of possibilities for English club activities.（可能有数百种英语俱乐部活动）；B项意思为“这篇文章只是为您提供了一个良好的开端”。下文说明“The important thing to remember to keep things fun and keep your club members motivated（热身活动最重要的是要让事情变得有趣、让俱乐部成员有积极性）”。B项是过渡句，承上启下。故选B。 第三部分 语言运用(共四节; 满分55 分) 第一节完形填空(共15小题; 每小题1分, 满分15分) 阅读下面短文, 从短文后各题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中, 选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 When the 28-year-old farmer Ureta met 17-year-old Graciela in his hometown Pampa, they fell in love.

The college student from central China's Hubei province cycled over 1,000 kilometers to Shanghai in 19 days to highlight the importance of environmental protection, receiving high praise from related departments. Huang Xi's journey started on Aug 3 from Xiaochang county, Hubei, spreading the message of environmental protection to over 5, 000 people along his route.Huang said it was not very easy to start a conversation about environmental protection with strangers."First you have to narrow the distance between you and your audience, " he noted.For instance, he would greet people at the roadside and introduce himself and his plan.He told Shanghai Observer that the environmental issue was not a good conversation opener because not everyone was interested. Straw burning(秸秆焚烧) was a major focus for Huang since his journey began in summer."Many people don't burn straw because there s a fine, but not many of them know that burning straw actually pollutes the environment,” he said. Explaining the ban on straw burning, the benefits of sorting of waste as well as the importance of creatures in water and plants protection were the major part of his job on the road. 16 local authorities of environmental protection along Huang's route praised his efforts."Environmental protection calls for not only governmental efforts but also social efforts, " said Chen Bin, an official from Wuhan's environmental department. Huang shared his experience on social media, which gave him a level of support on his journey. However, his cycle also drew the bad side of comments.Some said that his journey was only a publicity stunt (作秀), and some even said that in fact, it was a trip that Huang had to make since he ran out of his money at Internet cafes.Huang replied and tried to prove that what they said was not true. Huang, who studies environmental engineering in college, set off again on Sept 27 to take part in a training camp held by a center of environmental protection in Hubei province."I will will share my experience of the journey, and hope people will pay more attention to the environment.” he said. 4. What is the purpose of Huang's cycling? A. To have a good sightseeing. B. To receive high praise from related departments. C. To let people know the importance of protecting environment. D. To solve the problem of straw burning. 5. What can we learn from the text? A. Huang's cycle didn't draw any attention. B. What Huang studies in college is related to environment. C. Environmental protection needs only social efforts. D. It's a good idea to start a conversation by environmental issues. 6. When did Huang finish the cycling? A. On July.3. B. On Sep. 27. C. On Aug. 22.5 D. On Oct. 3. 7. What is the attitude of the related departments to the cycling? A. They think highly of it. B. They disagree with it. C. They show no interest in it. D. They doubt it. C The importance of reading literature often seems lost on many Chinese people. Even experts in education think that the first goal of education is to encourage a love of learning. There is therefore the possibility of something wrong with the way students are taught here. Why should they read literature? Do stories have value compared with the reading and learning of facts? Studies show clearly that the most powerful ways of learning are by experience, action and doing experiments and taking risks. Yet there are so many important things to learn that cannot be learned in these ways: feelings, problem solving, danger and relationships, for example. Research into this has shown how deep reading is a valuable experience different to a learning of words or facts. Keen( 热心的) readers of -literature show a better understanding of others. Their abilities to make good decisions are raised. Young children who enjoy a parent reading stories to them show greater awareness（意识) when they reach school age. The best schools do seem to provide a limited (有限的) chance to enjoy literature, usually about the Chinese classic stories but there is not enough "free" time for students. There are enough reading materials (材料). Chinese book shops are full of story books, and most of them are of good quality (质量) in terms of content,plot (情节) and language. Was there not a Chinese author who received a Nobel Prize for literature recently? There are moves in Chinese education to promote (提升) decision making and shared values. The value of literature is helpful to these as well as to the future of China. 8. What does the author think of the way students are educated in China? A. He is proud of it. B.

D Many leading AI researchers think that in a matter of decades, artificial intelligence will be able to do not merely some of our jobs, but all of our jobs, forever transforming life on the earth. The reason why many people reject this as science fiction is that we’ve traditionally thought of intelligence as something mysterious that can only exist in biological organisms,especially humans. But such an idea is unscientific. From my point of view as a physicist and AI researcher, intelligence is simply a certain kind of information-processing performed by elementary particles (基本粒子) moving around,and there is no law of physics that says one can’t build machines more intelligent than us in all ways. This suggests that we’ve only seen the tip of the intelligence iceberg and that there is an amazing potential to unlock the full intelligence that is potential in nature and use it to help humanity. If we get it right, the upside is huge. Since everything we love about civilization is the product of intelligence, amplifying our own intelligence with AI has the potential to solve tomorrow’s toughest problems. For example, why risk our loved ones dying in traffic accidents that self-driving cars could prevent or dying of cancers that AI might help us find cures for? Why not increase productivity through automation and use AI to accelerate our research and development of affordable sustainable (可持续的) energy? I’m optimistic that we can develop rapidly with advanced AI as long as we win the race between the growing power of our technology and the knowledge with which we manage it. But this requires giving up our outdated concept of learning from mistakes. That helped us win the race with less powerful technology. We messed up with fire and then invented fire extinguishers (灭火器), and we messed up with cars and then invented seat belts. However, it’s an awful idea for more powerful technologies, such as nuclear weapons or super intelligent AI-where even a single mistake is unacceptable and we need to get things right the first time. 12. How do many people feel about leading AI researchers’ predictions? A. Worried. B. Curious. C. Doubtful. D. Disappointed. 13. What does the author think of intelligence? A. We know little about it. B. It belongs to human beings. C. It is too difficult to understand. D. We have a good command of it. 14. What does the underlined word “upside” in Paragraph 4 probably mean? A. Cost. B. Potential. C. Quantity. D. Advantage. 15. What’s important for us in the race between people and technology? A. Learning from failure. B. Increasing our intelligence. C. Avoiding making mistakes. D. Making accurate predictions. 第二节七选五(共5小题; 每小题2.5分, 满分12.5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。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Last week, we talked about how to start and organize your English Club.
