One school principal, however, came up with a creative solution. John punk fy had of a school in northern china, decided to change the daily exercise program and get his students moving by teaching them on modern dance routine. The headmaster and seven hundred pupils of the school now perform the thirty minute routine every day at break time when a video of the dance was shown on social media. IT became a big hit since nineteen and fifty one primary, middle and high schools in china have required pupils to undertake a workout every day. IT involves instructions shouted out over speakers, but john has decided to break with tradition, with pupils and staff members performing the dance routine. Instead, he first discovered the routine at a public square and decided to learn IT himself. He never imagined the video would attract so much interest across the world. On one side, IT received more than two hundred fifty million viewers. Weight problems among children are on the rise in china. It's estimated that twenty eight percent of chinese children will be overweighed by twenty thirty. Jones introduction, other daily dance routine may be a step in the right direction.

If you have ever watched space movies, you may know one thing about it. Aurora Station is the world's first space hotel. The US company Orion Span built the hotel. The hotel is around 12 feet wide and 35 feet long. It is going to welcome its first guests soon. It will fly 320 kilometers above the Earth. It can hold six people at a time. Two of them will be workers.They maybe former NASA astronauts. 第一部分 Each trip aboard the station will last for 12 days. Guests there will be able to do many interesting things. For example, they will see around 16 sunrises and sunsets every 24 hours. They can take part in research experiments such as growing food in space. Later, they can bring the food back to the Earth. These are the same things as astronauts usually do. Guests can also share what they see and hear with others on the Earth. They can have a video chat using a high­speed Internet connection. But each guest will have to pay at least $9.5 million. That's really a large amount of money. 第一部分 18．What is the man talking about? A．The first space hotel. B．A new space lab. C．Astronauts' life in space. 19．How many guests can the space hotel hold at a time? A．Two. B．Six. C．Four. 答案：A 答案：C 第一部分 20．What can guests do in the space hotel? A．Cook food. B．Have a video chat. C．Watch movies. 答案：B 第一部分 第二部分 第二部分　阅读(共两节，满分50分) 第一节(共15小题；每小题2.5分，满分37.5分) 阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。 A Scientists have discovered a “monster black hole” so massive that, in theory, it shouldn't exist. It's a stellar black hole—the type that forms after stars die, collapse, and explode. Researchers had previously believed that the size limit was no more than 20 times the mass of our sun because as these stars die, they lose most of their mass through explosions that expel matter and gas swept away by stellar winds. 第二部分 31 This theory has now been toppled by LB-1, the newly discovered black hole. Located about 15，000 light years away, it has a mass 70 times greater than our sun, according to a press release from the Chinese Academy of Sciences. The findings were published by Chinese researchers in the journal Nature on Wednesday. “Black holes of such mass should not even exist in our galaxy, according to most of the current models of stellar evolution，” said Liu Jifeng, head of the team that made the discovery. “LB-1 is twice as massive as what we thought possible. Now theorists will have to take up the challenge of explaining its formation.” 第二部分 32 Scientists are now scratching their heads at how LB-1 got so huge. The Chinese team has proposed a number of theories. LB-1's sheer size suggests that it “was not formed from the collapse of only one star”， the study said—instead, it could potentially be two smaller black holes orbiting each other. Another possibility is that it formed from “fallback supernova”. This is when a supernova—the last stage of an exploding star—ejects material during the explosion, which then falls back into the supernova, creating a black hole. 第二部分 33 This fallback formation is theoretically possible, but scientists have never been able to prove or observe it. If this is how LB-1 formed, then we may have “direct evidence for this process” for the first time, the study said. There are several types of black holes and stellar black holes like LB-1 are on the smaller side, according to NASA. Supermassive black holes are much bigger—they can be billions of times the mass of our sun. 第二部分 34 Scientists believe supermassive black holes may be connected to the formation of galaxies, as they often exist at the center of the massive star systems but it is still not clear exactly how, or which form first. 篇章导读：本文是一篇新闻报道。文章报道科学家们对发现的“巨型黑洞”展开了几种可能性理论的研究。 第二部分 35 21．Why does the writer write the article? A．To report the great achievement Chinese scientists have made in black hole theory. B．To inform the readers of the basic knowledge about the black hole. C．To share with the readers the new development of the black hole discovery. D．To demonstrate the significance of discovering new black holes for science. 第二部分 答案：C　推理判断题。根据第一段可知，科学家们已经发现了一个“巨型黑洞”，其质量之大，在理论上不应该存在。根据第三段可知，但这个理论现在已经被新中国科学家发现的黑洞LB-1所推翻。根据中国科学院的一篇报道称，它位于15，000光年之外，质量是太阳的70倍。所以判断出作者写这篇文章的目的是与读者分享黑洞发现的新进展。故选C。 第二部分 22．Which of the following about LB-1 is mentioned in the passage? A．It is the biggest black hole ever discovered. B．It lost only a small part of its mass through explosion. C．It couldn't have been formed from the collapse of one star. D．Its discovery may lead to some breakthrough in the “fallback formation theory”． 答案：D　细节理解题。根据倒数第三段最后一句中的“If this is how LB-1 formed, then we may have ‘direct evidence for this process’ for the first time”可知，如果这就是LB-1的形成过程，那么我们可能首次有了“这一过程的直接证据”。所以LB-1这一发现可能会给“后援形成理论”带来一些突破。故选D。 第二部分 23．Which of the following is mentioned according to the passage? A．If the sun in our galaxy dies some of its mass will be taken away by stellar winds. B．A massive supernova will be formed and then exploded if the sun in our galaxy dies. C．“The Milky Way” was formed after a supermassive black hole collapsed and exploded. D．If “the Milky Way” dies, a supermassive black hole will be formed after its death. 第二部分 答案：A　细节理解题。根据第二段第二句中的“because as these stars die, they lose most of their mass through explosions that expel matter and gas swept away by stellar winds”可知，因为这些恒星会死亡，它们大部分质量因爆炸而损失，恒星风会把爆炸释放出来的物质和气体吹走。所以如果我们星系中的太阳死亡，它的一部分质量会被恒星风吹走。故选A。 第二部分 B This year marks exactly two centuries since the publication of Frankenstein by Mary Shelley. Even before the invention of the electric light bulb, the author produced a remarkable work of fiction that would foresee many ethical (道德的) questions to be raised by technologies yet to come. Today the rapid growth of artificial intelligence (AI) raises fundamental questions: “What is intelligence, identity, or consciousness? What makes human conscience (良知)？” 第二部分 41 What is being called artificial general intelligence, machines that would imitate the way humans think, continues to evade (难倒) scientists. Yet humans remain fascinated by the idea of robots that would look, move, and respond like humans, similar to those recently on popular sci-fi TV series such as “Westworld” and “Humans”． How people think is still far too complex to be understood, let alone reproduced, says David Eagleman, a Stanford University neuroscientist. “We are just in a situation where there are no good theories explaining what consciousness actually is and how you could ever build a machine to get there.” 第二部分 42 But that doesn't mean essential ethical issues involving AI aren't at hand. The coming use of autonomous vehicles, for example, raises difficult ethical questions. Human drivers sometimes must make split-second decisions. Their reactions may be a complex combination of instant reflections, input from past driving experiences, and what their eyes and ears tell them in that moment. AI “vision” today is not nearly as complicated as that of humans. And to foresee every imaginable driving situation is a difficult programming problem. 第二部分 43 Whenever decisions are based on masses of data, “you quickly get into a lot of ethical questions，” notes Tan Kiat How, chief executive of a Singapore-based agency that is helping the government develop a voluntary code for the ethical use of AI. Along with Singapore, other governments and mega-corporations are beginning to establish their own guidelines. Britain is setting up a data ethics center. India released its AI ethics strategy this spring. 第二部分 44 Only when we can make sure that the thinking of intelligent machines reflects humanity's highest values will they be useful servants and not Frankenstein's out -of-control monster. 篇章导读：本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了人工智能产生的基本伦理问题，各国都在致力于制定使用人工智能的准则。 第二部分 45 24．Why did the author mention Mary Shelley's novel Frankenstein at the beginning of the passage? A．Because it has remained popular for as long as 200 years. B．Because it fascinates AI scientists all over the world. C．Because it has sparked serious ethical controversies. D．Because it involves some concerns raised by AI today. 答案：D　推理判断题。根据第一段第二句中的“that would foresee many ethical (道德的) questions to be raised by technologies yet to come”可知，在电灯泡发明之前，Mary Shelley (玛丽·谢莉)就已经写出了一部了不起的小说，预见到许多由未来的技术产生的道德问题。此句中 ethical questions 可同义替换选项D中的concern，作者提及这部小说是因为书中涉及人们对AI的忧虑。故选D。 第二部分 25．In David Eagleman's opinion, our current knowledge of consciousness ________． A．helps explain artificial intelligence B．can be misleading to robot making C．inspires popular sci-fi TV series D．is too limited for us to reproduce it 答案：D　推理判断题。根据第三段第二句David Eagleman (大卫·伊格曼)所说的话可知，没有好的理论可以解释意识是什么，以及如何制造一台机器去实现它，因此在David Eagleman看来，我们现在有关意识的知识太有限而无法复制它。故选D。 第二部分 26．The solution to the ethical issues brought by autonomous vehicles ________． A．can hardly ever be found B．is still beyond our power C．causes little public concern D．has aroused much curiosity 答案：B　推理判断题。根据第四段最后两句可知，当下，人工智能的思维还不能达到人类的精密程度，让机器去预设每一种驾驶情形是一个困难的编程问题。由此说明，去解决自动驾驶汽车所带来的道德问题目前是在人类的能力范围之外的。故选B。 第二部分 27．Which of the following would be the best title for the text? A．AI's Future: In the Hands of Tech Giants B．Frankenstein, the Novel Predicting the Age of AI C．The Conscience of AI: Complex But Unavoidable D．AI Shall Be Killers Once Out of Control 答案：C　标题判断题。本文首段通过引用Mary Shelley的书引出本文要探讨的话题：新技术所引发的道德问题。特别是最后一段指出了，只有当我们能够确定智能机器的思想反映了人类的最高价值观时，它们才是有用的仆人，而不是弗兰肯斯坦所描述的失控的怪物。因此AI所涉及的道德问题已经无法回避，虽然问题很复杂，但也要去解决。文中多处复现了AI和conscience这两个关键词。因此C项作为标题合适。故选C。 第二部分 C A computer program that could help catch and ever translates from aliens in outer space has been started by a British scientist. If aliens are discovered one day, scientists fear their language may make it impossible to understand them. But John Elliott of Metropolitan University in Britain has come up with a program that can figure out the structure (结构) of their language. He thinks that's the first step in understanding what they are saying. 第二部分 50 Dr Elliott's program would compare an alien language to a database (数据库) of 60 different languages in the world to look for a similar structure. He believes that even an alien language will have its own structure.Language has to be structured in a certain way, or it will be harder to use, he told New Scientist magazine. Research had shown that it is possible to know if a signal (信号) carries a language rather than a picture or music. Dr Elliott has gone a step further by finding a way to pick out what might be words and sentences. Because languages have different word orders, Dr Elliott has set up a library of the sentence structures of 60 human languages. 第二部分 51 If a message is received from outer space, it could be compared against this database. Scientists would then be able to see if it's similar to any human language, or a mix of the language. However, Dr Elliott also said that in order to translate what the aliens are actually saying, it may still be necessary to have a code book. 篇章导读：本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了一位英国科学家开发的一种计算机程序，该程序可以帮助搜集甚至翻译来自外太空的外星人的信息。 第二部分 52 28．Why did Dr Elliott come up with the program? A．To learn more about outer space. B．To develop a new language. C．To help translate the messages for aliens. D．To compare an alien language to human languages. 答案：C　细节理解题。根据第二段可知，如果有一天外星人被发现，科学家们担心人们不明白他们的语言，John Elliott (约翰·艾略特)想出了一个程序来确定他们的语言的结构，他认为这是了解他们在说什么的第一步。由此可知Elliott博士的项目是为了帮助翻译外星人的信息。故选C。 第二部分 29．According to Dr Elliott, what's the first step of understanding an alien language? A．Coming up with a program. B．Knowing its structure. C．Understanding aliens. D．Discovering aliens. 答案：B　细节理解题。根据第二段可知，了解外星人语言的第一步是知道外星人语言的结构。故选B。 第二部分 30．What does Paragraph 4 mainly tell us? A．Some necessary conditions for making the program work. B．Dr Elliott's findings about different kinds of languages. C．Three important functions of the program. D．The number of sentence structures of human languages. 答案：A　段落大意题。根据第四段可知，研究表明，如果一个信号携带的是一种语言而不是图片或音乐，了解是可能的，Elliott博士已经更进一步找到了一种方法来挑选什么可能是单词和句子。因为语言有不同的词汇顺序，Elliott博士已经建立了一个包含60种人类语言的句子结构库。由此可知，第四段主要讲述了让程序起作用的一些必要条件。故选A。 第二部分 31．How does the program work when it receives a message from aliens? A．Mix the message with 60 human languages. B．Translate the message and send it to the database. C．Pick out the sentence structure and translate it. D．Compare the message to the database of 60 human languages. 答案：D　细节理解题。根据倒数第二段可知，如果从外太空收到消息，可以将其与此数据库进行比较，然后科学家就能知道它是否与任何人类语言相似，或者是语言的混合。故选D。 第二部分 D A living tortoise of its kind not seen in more than 110 years and feared to be extinct (灭绝的) has been found in a remote part of the Galapagos islands of Fernandina. An adult female Fernandina tortoise was spotted Sunday by a joint team of the Galapagos National Park and the US­based Galapagos Conservancy. Researchers think there may be more members of the tortoise on the island because of the droppings and tracks they found. The team took the tortoise, likely more than 110 years old, to a breeding (繁殖) center for rare tortoises where it will stay in a specially designed fence. 第二部分 57 The only other living member of the tortoise was found in 1906. Since then, researchers have come across tortoise tracks and bite marks on plants, and there was a possible unconfirmed sighting in 2009. But Sunday's discovery was the first confirmed sighting and together with the possibility, of finding more members of this kind has raised the possibility of breeding. Fernandina is the third largest Galapagos island and is famous for the La Cumbre volcano, one of the most active in the world. The island lies in the Pacific Ocean about 1，000 kilometers off Ecuador's mainland.

My parents replied, “What's the use? Education never got us villagers anywhere. What good will it do to a girl? Girls should stay at home and learn household work. That comes in handy when they get married. And anyway, how can we send our child so far away all by herself for a whole year？” 第四部分 97 But the people persuaded my parents. They said there would be about a hundred girls coming from different villages and all of them would be safe and taken care of well. My parents had to agree finally. They felt that if other families sent their girls, they would also have to. My friend, Mala, was going too. We were the only two girls from our village. We would sit in the evenings and wonder how things would be in an unknown place. Once, Mala asked me, “Will there be any sand dunes (沙丘) there？” I didn't understand her question. How could any place in the world not have sand dunes? I have traveled far with my goats, sat on hills and looked at the desert beyond. For miles and miles there is only sand. 第四部分 98 The day before leaving home, I was very nervous. I had dreamt of going to this unknown place but I couldn't imagine living without my parents and goats. They would surely miss me. My mother was sad too. With tears in her eyes, she packed my clothes and wrapped snacks for me. When they took me away, I sobbed the whole way. I kept crying for the first few days in the camp. Then gradually, I started making friends with the other girls. There were so many girls. We would all study together, play together, eat together and sleep together. Sometimes, my parents would send me clothes and food. I also sent messages telling them not to worry and that I was well. 第四部分 99 At the end of the term I studied hard for the examination. ﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍ When Mala and I went back home, we became different persons. ﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍ 注意： 1．续写词数应为150左右； 2．请按如下格式在相应位置作答。 第四部分 100 写前导读：本文是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了作者十岁的时候，父母被告知应该送作者去一年的教育营。父母很不解。后来经过劝说，作者和同村的朋友Mala (玛拉)去了。在教育营，作者交了很多新朋友，逐渐适应了那里的生活。在学期末，作者会有怎样的感受？当作者和Mala回到家，又会有怎样的变化？ 第四部分 101 [精彩范文] At the end of the term I studied hard for the examination. I passed the fifth standard examination. The teachers were very happy with me. I was happy too because it was time to go back home. But I was also sad as I would never again see the new friends I had made here. We hardly slept the last night in the camp. While we packed, we kept talking and crying as we would soon part. 第四部分 When Mala and I went back home, we became different persons. My parents were overjoyed to see me and I met my goats again. Everyone in the village came and asked me how the camp was. When I told them how good it was and how much we had learnt, they decided to send their daughters the next time. We often talked about much fun we had in the camp. I decided to go to school to study more. 第四部分 R 点击播放 听力材料 $$
