It’s hard for traditional bookstores to________ with larger bookstore chains. A. consist B. commit C. compete D. complete 【答案】C 【解析】 【详解】考查动词词义辨析。句意：传统书店很难与大型连锁书店竞争。A. consist 由……组成；B. commit忠于；C. compete竞争；D. complete使完整。固定搭配compete with“与……竞争”，根据句意，traditional book stores与large bookstore chains存在竞争关系。故选C。 4.

A. it B. one C. this D. that 【答案】D 【解析】 【详解】考查代词辨析。句意：小学校的教育质量比一些大学校的好。it指代前面提到的事物本身，指同一个事物；one指代与前面同类不同一的事物，表示泛指；that指代与前面同类不同一的事物，表示特指。根据“The quality of education in small school”可知，此处指“大学校的教育质量”，和前面是同类不同一的事物，应用that指代，故选D。 5. The number of firms selling computers in this region ________ since January 2012. A. are dropping B. is dropping C. have dropped D. has dropped 【答案】D 【解析】 【分析】 【详解】考查动词时态与主谓一致。句意：自2012年1月以来，该地区销售电脑的公司数量已经下降。A. are dropping现在进行时，复数形式；B. is dropping现在进行时，单数形式；C. have dropped现在完成时，复数形式；D. has dropped现在完成时，单数形式。根据句中时间状语since January 2012可知，谓语动词应使用现在完成时态，又因短语The number of + n.作主语时视为单数，谓语动词也应用单数形式。综上，谓语动词应使用现在完成时态，单数形式。故选D项。 6. I was watching the clock all through the meeting, as I had a train ________. A. catching B. caught C. to catch D. to be caught 【答案】C 【解析】 【详解】考查非谓语动词。句意：在整个会议期间我一直在看钟表，因为我要去赶火车。have在本句中意为“有”，根据固定结构Sb have sth to do某人有某事要做，在本句中to do由主语完成，故选C。 【点睛】本句考查的是have的复合结构：have+宾语+非谓语，既是重点又是难点。对于have的复合结构，非谓语用什么形式，首先确定have的词义，是“有”还是“让”，have（有）+ sth to do sth (由主语完成）；have（让）+宾语+do / doing / done (用哪种形式需要具体分析），所以要正确理解句意和本结构的具体用法，灵活掌握才能把题作对。 7. The speech was very boring and my mind began to________. A. remove B. change C. wonder D. wander 【答案】D 【解析】 【详解】考查动词词义辨析。句意：这次演讲非常无聊，我的思绪开始游离。A.remove移除；B.change改变；C.wonder想知道；D.wander走神；漫游。 此处需要填入一个表示“走神、游离”的动词，与mind搭配。固定搭配mind begins to wander表示“思绪游离/开小差”，强调注意力不集中，符合语境。故选D。 8.

A. that B. when C. which D. where 【答案】B 【解析】 【详解】考查定语从句。句意：我们将会把徒步的时间推迟到了下周，到那时天气也许会更好。设空处引导非限制性定语从句，先行词next week，关系词在从句中作时间状语，应用when。故选B。 9. ________ I want to share with you is the respect I have for my teachers. A. That B. Which C. Whether D. What 【答案】D 【解析】 【详解】考查名词性从句。句意：我想和你们分享的是我对老师的尊重。引导主语从句，从句中缺少宾语，指事情应用what引导。故选D。 10. Carl, hold the camera________ , or it will drop into the river. A. obviously B. steadily C. simply D. briefly 【答案】B 【解析】 【详解】考查副词词义辨析。句意：卡尔，拿稳相机，不然它会掉到河里去的。A. obviously明显地；B. steadily平稳地；C. simply简直；D. briefly简短地。根据空后“or it will drop into the river”可知，此处指拿稳相机。故选B。 11. It was a problem________ they would support us. A. when B. whether C. that D. whom 【答案】B 【解析】 【详解】考查名词性从句。句意：他们是否会支持我们是个问题。句中it是形式主语，真正的主语是后面的从句。根据句意，表示“是否”，故用whether引导主语从句。when什么时候；that无词义；whom谁。均不符合句意。故选B项。 12. ________ volcanoes for many years, I am still amazed at their beauty. A. Having studied B. Studying C. To study D. Studied 【答案】A 【解析】 【详解】考查非谓语动词。句意：研究火山多年，我仍然惊叹于它们的美丽。空处是非谓语动词做状语，动词study(研究)和逻辑主语I二者之间是主动关系，且“我研究火山很多年”发生在“我对它们的美感感到惊讶”之前，应用现在分词的完成式having done，故选A。 13. Doctors will never give ________ on a patient, and their efforts do sometimes end ________ miracles. A. in, of B. up, in C. off, of D. off, up 【答案】B 【解析】 【详解】考查动词短语辨析。句意：医生永远不会放弃对病人的治疗，而且他们的努力有时确实会带来奇迹。give in屈服、让步；give up放弃；give off发出、放出(气味、光、热等)；end in以……告终、结果是……。结合句意和常识，医生不会放弃病人，且努力最终会带来奇迹，所以用动词短语“give up”和“end in”符合语境。故选B项。 14.

Well, that certainly wasn’t true this time! In fact, all of our Cook Your Heart Out finalists (决赛选手) were very nice. I had the privilege of getting to know Jan a little while she cooked in our test kitchen and she is quite possibly one of the sweetest people I’ve ever met. When she arrived at our test kitchen, Jan was confident. I was just there to show her where her kitchen tools and ingredients were, but she thanked me politely anyway! And she took the time to give me some insider tips on great places to eat in Chicago. Once the competition started, I had the chance to see what a gifted cook she is.She cooked the shrimps (虾) perfectly, cooling them down in an ice bath to prevent them from getting overcooked and tough. Everything was cut into perfect pieces. That definitely makes a difference in the final dish. I found out later that we needed to finish earlier than planned. I was afraid to tell her since she wasn’t that close to being done, but I had to do it. She was calm and finished up beautifully. After the judges made comments on her dish and finished giving scores, I rushed into the back kitchen. The truth: I wanted to taste it — as did everyone else on staff. We had a good taste and couldn’t get enough. Needless to say, we are all very, very happy for her. 36. What do we learn from Paragraph.1? A. Jan was the last to finish her cooking. B. The author was Jan’s assistant. C. A cooking competition was being held. D. All the competitors were given prizes. 37. Why did Jan cool the shrimp down during cooking? A. Because it can reduce the cooking time. B. Because it can prevent overcooking. C. Because it can make the shrimp look nice. D. Because it can make cooking much easier. 38. We can infer from Paragraph 1-3 that ________. A. Jan made a good preparation. B. the author didn’t think highly of Jan C. Jan was a newcomer to Chicago D. Jan arrived late at the test kitchen. 39. What did the author think of Jan? A. Jan overcooked the shrimp. B. Jan finished her dish in a hurry. C. Jan made a different dish in the end. D. Jan had a gift for cooking. 40.

I was afraid to tell her since she wasn’t that close to being done, but I had to do it. She was calm and finished up beautifully.(后来我发现我们需要比计划提前完成。我不敢告诉她，因为她还没那么快结束，但我必须这么做。她很平静，完成得很漂亮。)”可知，Jan熟练处理食材，冷静应对时间变化，并且完成特别好，综上推断Jan准备充分。故选A。 【39题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段的“Once the competition started, I had the chance to see what a gifted cook she is. (比赛一开始，我就有机会看到她是一个多么有天赋的厨师。)”可知，作者认为Jan有烹饪天赋。故选D。 【40题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段“The truth: I wanted to taste it — as did everyone else on staff.(事实是：我想尝尝它——其他员工也都想尝尝。)”可知作者进后厨是为了品尝菜品。故选A。 B How I Turned to Be Optimistic I began to grow up that winter night when my parents and I were returning from my aunt＇s house, and my mother said that we might soon be leaving for America. We were on the bus then. I was crying, and some people on the bus were turning around to look at me. I remember that I could not bear the thought of never hearing again the radio program for school children to which I listened every morning. I do not remember myself crying for this reason again. In fact, I think I cried very little when I was saying goodbye to my friends and relatives. When we were leaving I thought about all the places I was going to see—the strange and magical places I had known only from books and pictures. The country I was leaving never to come back was hardly in my head then. The four years that followed taught me the importance of optimism, but the idea did not come to me at once. For the first two years in New York I was really lost—having to study in three schools as a result of family moves. I did not quite know what I was or what I should be. Mother remarried, and things became even more complex for me. Some time passed before my stepfather and I got used to each other. I was often sad, and saw no end to “the hard times. ” My responsibilities in the family increased a lot since I knew English better than everyone else at home. I wrote letters, filled out forms, translated at interviews with Immigration officers, took my grandparents to the doctor and translated there, and even discussed telephone bills with company representatives. From my experiences I have learned one important rule: Almost all common troubles eventually go away! Something good is certain to happen in the end when you do not give up, and just wait a little! I believe that my life will turn out all right, even though it will not be that easy. 41. How did the author get to know America? A. From her relatives. B. From her mother. C. From Books and pictures. D. From radio programs. 42. Upon leaving for America the author felt ________. A. confused B. excited C. worried D. amazed 43. For the first two years in New York, the author ________. A. often lost her way B. did not think about her future C. studied in three different schools D. got on well with her stepfather 44. What can we learn about the author from Paragraph 4? A. She worked as a translator. B. She attended a lot of job interviews. C. She paid telephone bills for her family. D. She helped her family with her English. 45. The author believes that ________. A. her future will be free from troubles B. it is difficult to learn to become patient C. there are more good things than bad things D. good things will happen if one keeps trying 【答案】41. C 42. B 43. C 44. D 45. D 【解析】 【分析】这是一篇记述文。文中作者主要介绍了自己移民到美国的经历，由此告诉我们如果一个人不断地努力，好事一定会发生。 【41题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段的“the strange and magical places I had known only from books and pictures.”可知，作者在去美国之前是通过书籍和图片来了解美国的。故选C。 【42题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段中The country I was leaving never to come back was hardly in my head then.可知，作者要离开永远不会回来的国家那时几乎不在作者的头脑里，所以说明作者对去美国是兴奋的，故选B。 【43题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段的“For the first two years in New York I was really lost—having to study in three schools as a result of family moves.”可知，在纽约的前两年，作者在三个不同的学校学习过。故选C。 【44题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段“since I knew English better than everyone else at home. I wrote letters, filled out forms, translated at interviews with Immigration officers, took my grandparents to the doctor and translated there, and even discussed telephone bills with company representatives.”可知，作者比他家里面其他人的英语要好，因此他经常用英语来帮助他们。故选D。 【45题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段“Something good is certain to happen in the end when you do not give up, and just wait a little!”（当你不放弃时，好事最终一定会发生，你只需要稍微等待一下。）可知，作者认为如果一个人不断地努力，好事一定会发生。故选D。 C “If there is one thing I’m sure about, it is that in a hundred years from now we will still be reading newspapers. It is not that newspapers are a necessity. Even now some people get most of their news from television or radio. Many buy a paper only on Saturday or Sunday. But for most people reading a newspaper has become a habit passed down from generation to generation. The nature of what is news may change. What basically makes news is what affects our lives — the big political stories, the coverage of the wars, earthquakes and other disasters, will continue much the same. I think there will be more coverage of scientific research, though. It’s already happening in areas that may directly affect our lives, like genetic (基因) engineering. In the future, I think there will be more coverage of scientific explanations of why we feel as we do — as we develop a better understanding of how the brain operates and what our feelings really are. It’s quite possible that in the next century newspapers will be transmitted (传送) electronically from Fleet Street and printed out in our own home. In fact, I’m pretty sure that how it will happen in the future. You will probably be able to choose from a menu, making up your own newspaper by picking out the things you want to read — sports and international news, etc. I think people have got it wrong when they talk about competition between the different media (媒体). They actually feed off each other. Some people once foresaw that television would kill off newspapers, but that hasn’t happened. What is read on the printed page lasts longer than pictures on a screen or sound lost in the air. And as for the Internet, it’s never really pleasant to read something just on a screen. 46. What is the best title for the passage? A. The Best Way to Get News B. The Changes of Media C. Make Your Own Newspaper D. The Future of Newspaper 47. In the writer’s opinion, in the future, ________. A. more big political affairs, wars and disasters will make news B. newspapers will not be printed in publishing houses any longer C. newspapers will cover more scientific research D. more and more people will watch TV 48. What will probably be on in the newspaper made by yourself? A. Sports and international news. B. A menu of important news. C. The most important news. D. What you are interested in. 49. From the passage, we can infer ________. A. newspapers will win the competition among the different media B. newspapers will stay with us together with other media C. television will take the place of newspaper D. the writer believe some media will die out 50. The phrase “feed off” in the last paragraph means ________. A. depend on B. compete with C. fight with D. kill off 【答案】46. D 47. C 48. D 49. B 50. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇议论文，主要探讨了报纸的未来发展趋势，包括内容变化、传播方式革新以及与其他媒体的共存关系。 【46题详解】 主旨大意题。根据全文内容，尤其是首段“If there is one thing I’m sure about, it is that in a hundred years from now we will still be reading newspapers.(如果有一件事我可以肯定的话，那就是一百年后我们仍然会读报纸。)”和后续段落对报纸未来形态的预测可知，文章核心围绕报纸的未来展开。选项D“The Future of Newspaper(报纸的未来)”准确概括主题，适合作为本文最佳标题。故选D。 【47题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中“I think there will be more coverage of scientific research, though. It’s already happening in areas that may directly affect our lives, like genetic (基因) engineering.(不过，我认为会有更多关于科学研究的报道。它已经发生在可能直接影响我们生活的领域，比如基因工程)”可知作者认为未来报纸将会报道更多的科学研究。故选C。 【48题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中“You will probably be able to choose from a menu, making up your own newspaper by picking out the things you want to read — sports and international news, etc.(你可能会从菜单中选择你想读的东西——体育和国际新闻等等——来制作你自己的报纸。)”可知，你自己制作的报纸上可能会有你感兴趣的内容。故选D。 【49题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段中“Some people once foresaw that television would kill off newspapers, but that hasn’t happened. What is read on the printed page lasts longer than pictures on a screen or sound lost in the air. And as for the Internet, it’s never really pleasant to read something just on a screen.(有些人曾预言电视会消灭报纸，但这并没有发生。在印刷的书页上读到的东西比屏幕上的图片或消失在空气中的声音更持久。至于互联网，只在屏幕上阅读从来都不是一件令人愉快的事情。)”可知，不同的媒体之间是相互补充、相互依存的，报纸将与其他媒体共存，一起伴随着我们。故选B。 【50题详解】 词句猜测题。根据划线短语上文“I think people have got it wrong when they talk about competition between the different media (媒体).(我认为人们在谈论不同媒体之间的竞争时是错误的)”以及下文“What is read on the printed page lasts longer than pictures on a screen or sound lost in the air. And as for the Internet, it’s never really pleasant to read something just on a screen.(在印刷的书页上读到的东西比屏幕上的图片或消失在空气中的声音更持久。至于互联网，只在屏幕上阅读从来都不是一件令人愉快的事情。)”提到的印刷内容比图片和声音更持久，以及只在屏幕上阅读的互联网媒体提供的体验不够愉快，可知，不同媒体之间不是竞争关系，而是互补、相互依存关系；“They actually feed off each other.” 中的feed off意思是“依靠，依存”，与depend on意思相近。故选A。 IV.阅读表达(共5小题，每题2分，满分10分)。 阅读表达 The royal (皇家的) family, the Harry Potter studio, and Premier League soccer matches top Chinese tourists’ to-do lists in Britain, according to a new report. Chinese visitors also showed that 73 percent would be likely to recommend Britain, and 43 percent felt “very welcome” in the country. London was the most popular destination among travelers from China. An annual average of 144,000 visitors visited London between 2004 and 2016, compared to 35,000 in Edinburgh. Other spots were Manchester, Cambridge, and Oxford. More than 250,000 holidaymakers from China spent more than half a billion pounds in the United Kingdom last year. That number is expected to rise as disposable income (可支配收入) and the ranks of the Chinese middle class continue to grow,rising to 500,000 by 2026. The number was only 500 in 1996. Visit Britain, the UK’s official tourism body (机构), said Chinese tourists visited Britain for its heritage (遗产) and modern culture. Buckingham Palace tops the list of must-see attractions. The next is Chats worth House and Edinburgh Castle. Attractions that offer a bird’s eye view of London are also popular. The Shard and London Eye are on many people’s visiting lists. “They are mostly interested in the royal family,Shakespeare, Sherlock Holmes, Harry Potter, and Downton Abbey,” the report said. But few are interested in the UK’s traditional food. According to Visit Britain,fewer than one in ten said they would have fish and chips at the seaside. It noted that Chinese holidaymakers might appreciate wine, whisky and other western spirits (烈酒), cheese and dairy products, dessert etc. However, many Chinese tourists would like to have familiar Chinese food once in a while, if not often. 51. What’s the meaning of the underlined word “recommend” in the first paragraph?(1 word) ____________________________________________________________________________________ 52. Which city attracted most Chinese travelers in the UK?(1 word) ____________________________________________________________________________________ 53. Why did Chinese tourists choose Britain, according to Visit Britain?(No more than 10 words) ____________________________________________________________________________________ 54. What’s the last paragraph mainly about? (No more than 10 words) ____________________________________________________________________________________ 55. If you have a chance to go abroad, will you choose Britain? Why or why not?(No more than 30 words) ____________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】51. 推荐 52. London. 53. For its heritage and modern culture. 54. Chinese tourists’ attitudes to UK food. 55. Yes. I want to visit historical sites like Buckingham Palace and experience British culture, such as Harry Potter attractions. 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了中国人喜爱去英国旅游，说明了原因以及英国旅游的特色。 【51题详解】 考查词句猜测。根据划线词后文“and 43 percent felt “very welcome” in the country (43%的人觉得英国“非常受欢迎”)”可知，and表示并列关系，43%的人觉得英国“非常受欢迎”，推测73%的中国游客可能会推荐英国，划线词意思是“推荐”。故答案为：推荐。 【52题详解】 考查细节理解。根据第一段“London was the most popular destination among travelers from China.(伦敦是最受中国游客欢迎的目的地)”可知，伦敦最吸引中国游客。故答案为London. 【53题详解】 考查细节理解。根据第三段“Visit Britain, the UK’s official tourism body (机构), said Chinese tourists visited Britain for its heritage (遗产) and modern culture.(英国官方旅游机构“英国旅游局”表示，中国游客来英国旅游是为了英国的遗产和现代文化)”可知，英国旅游局称，中国游客选择英国是因为它的遗产和现代文化。故答案为For its heritage and modern culture. 【54题详解】 考查主旨大意。根据最后一段“But few are interested in the UK’s traditional food. According to Visit Britain, fewer than one in ten said they would have fish and chips at the seaside. It noted that Chinese holidaymakers might appreciate wine, whisky and other western spirits (烈酒),cheese and dairy products, dessert etc. However, many Chinese tourists would like to have familiar Chinese food once in a while, if not often.(但很少有人对英国的传统食物感兴趣。根据英国旅游局的调查，不到十分之一的人说他们会在海边吃炸鱼薯条。报告指出，中国度假者可能会喜欢葡萄酒、威士忌和其他西方烈酒、奶酪和乳制品、甜点等。然而，许多中国游客即使不经常，也愿意偶尔吃一顿熟悉的中国菜)”可知，最后一段主要讲中国游客对英国食物的态度。故答案为Chinese tourists’ attitudes to UK food. 【55题详解】 开放性试题。言之有理，注意词数限制。根据“如果你有机会出国，你会选择英国吗？为什么选择或者为什么不选择呢？”可回答：是。我想参观像白金汉宫这样的历史遗迹，体验英国文化，比如哈利波特景点。故答案为Yes. I want to visit historical sites like Buckingham Palace and experience British culture, such as Harry Potter attractions.

Despite facing many difficulties, she always wears a warm smile and encourages others to stay positive. What I admire most is her selflessness. She often helps neighbors without expecting anything in return. Her actions teach me that true happiness comes from giving.

Well, that certainly wasn’t true this time! In fact, all of our Cook Your Heart Out finalists (决赛选手) were very nice. I had the privilege of getting to know Jan a little while she cooked in our test kitchen and she is quite possibly one of the sweetest people I’ve ever met. When she arrived at our test kitchen, Jan was confident. I was just there to show her where her kitchen tools and ingredients were, but she thanked me politely anyway! And she took the time to give me some insider tips on great places to eat in Chicago. Once the competition started, I had the chance to see what a gifted cook she is.She cooked the shrimps (虾) perfectly, cooling them down in an ice bath to prevent them from getting overcooked and tough. Everything was cut into perfect pieces. That definitely makes a difference in the final dish. I found out later that we needed to finish earlier than planned. I was afraid to tell her since she wasn’t that close to being done, but I had to do it. She was calm and finished up beautifully. After the judges made comments on her dish and finished giving scores, I rushed into the back kitchen. The truth: I wanted to taste it — as did everyone else on staff. We had a good taste and couldn’t get enough. Needless to say, we are all very, very happy for her. 36. What do we learn from Paragraph.1? A. Jan was the last to finish her cooking. B. The author was Jan’s assistant. C. A cooking competition was being held. D. All the competitors were given prizes. 37. Why did Jan cool the shrimp down during cooking? A. Because it can reduce the cooking time. B. Because it can prevent overcooking. C. Because it can make the shrimp look nice. D. Because it can make cooking much easier. 38. We can infer from Paragraph 1-3 that ________. A. Jan made a good preparation. B. the author didn’t think highly of Jan C. Jan was a newcomer to Chicago D. Jan arrived late at the test kitchen. 39. What did the author think of Jan? A. Jan overcooked the shrimp. B. Jan finished her dish in a hurry. C. Jan made a different dish in the end. D. Jan had a gift for cooking. 40. The author ran into the back kitchen ________. A. to have a taste of the dish B. to tell Jan that she won C. to help Jan finish cooking D. to tell Jan that she had little time left B How I Turned to Be Optimistic I began to grow up that winter night when my parents and I were returning from my aunt＇s house, and my mother said that we might soon be leaving for America. We were on the bus then. I was crying, and some people on the bus were turning around to look at me. I remember that I could not bear the thought of never hearing again the radio program for school children to which I listened every morning. I do not remember myself crying for this reason again. In fact, I think I cried very little when I was saying goodbye to my friends and relatives. When we were leaving I thought about all the places I was going to see—the strange and magical places I had known only from books and pictures. The country I was leaving never to come back was hardly in my head then. The four years that followed taught me the importance of optimism, but the idea did not come to me at once. For the first two years in New York I was really lost—having to study in three schools as a result of family moves. I did not quite know what I was or what I should be. Mother remarried, and things became even more complex for me. Some time passed before my stepfather and I got used to each other. I was often sad, and saw no end to “the hard times. ” My responsibilities in the family increased a lot since I knew English better than everyone else at home. I wrote letters, filled out forms, translated at interviews with Immigration officers, took my grandparents to the doctor and translated there, and even discussed telephone bills with company representatives. From my experiences I have learned one important rule: Almost all common troubles eventually go away! Something good is certain to happen in the end when you do not give up, and just wait a little! I believe that my life will turn out all right, even though it will not be that easy. 41. How did the author get to know America? A. From her relatives. B. From her mother. C. From Books and pictures. D. From radio programs. 42. Upon leaving for America the author felt ________. A. confused B. excited C. worried D. amazed 43. For the first two years in New York, the author ________. A. often lost her way B. did not think about her future C. studied in three different schools D. got on well with her stepfather 44. What can we learn about the author from Paragraph 4? A. She worked as a translator. B. She attended a lot of job interviews. C. She paid telephone bills for her family. D. She helped her family with her English. 45. The author believes that ________. A. her future will be free from troubles B. it is difficult to learn to become patient C. there are more good things than bad things D. good things will happen if one keeps trying C “If there is one thing I’m sure about, it is that in a hundred years from now we will still be reading newspapers. It is not that newspapers are a necessity. Even now some people get most of their news from television or radio. Many buy a paper only on Saturday or Sunday. But for most people reading a newspaper has become a habit passed down from generation to generation. The nature of what is news may change. What basically makes news is what affects our lives — the big political stories, the coverage of the wars, earthquakes and other disasters, will continue much the same. I think there will be more coverage of scientific research, though. It’s already happening in areas that may directly affect our lives, like genetic (基因) engineering. In the future, I think there will be more coverage of scientific explanations of why we feel as we do — as we develop a better understanding of how the brain operates and what our feelings really are. It’s quite possible that in the next century newspapers will be transmitted (传送) electronically from Fleet Street and printed out in our own home. In fact, I’m pretty sure that how it will happen in the future. You will probably be able to choose from a menu, making up your own newspaper by picking out the things you want to read — sports and international news, etc. I think people have got it wrong when they talk about competition between the different media (媒体). They actually feed off each other. Some people once foresaw that television would kill off newspapers, but that hasn’t happened. What is read on the printed page lasts longer than pictures on a screen or sound lost in the air. And as for the Internet, it’s never really pleasant to read something just on a screen. 46. What is the best title for the passage? A. The Best Way to Get News B. The Changes of Media C. Make Your Own Newspaper D. The Future of Newspaper 47. In the writer’s opinion, in the future, ________. A. more big political affairs, wars and disasters will make news B. newspapers will not be printed in publishing houses any longer C. newspapers will cover more scientific research D. more and more people will watch TV 48. What will probably be on in the newspaper made by yourself? A. Sports and international news. B. A menu of important news. C. The most important news. D. What you are interested in. 49. From the passage, we can infer ________. A. newspapers will win the competition among the different media B. newspapers will stay with us together with other media C. television will take the place of newspaper D. the writer believe some media will die out 50. The phrase “feed off” in the last paragraph means ________. A. depend on B. compete with C. fight with D. kill off IV.阅读表达(共5小题，每题2分，满分10分)。 阅读表达 The royal (皇家的) family, the Harry Potter studio, and Premier League soccer matches top Chinese tourists’ to-do lists in Britain, according to a new report.

London was the most popular destination among travelers from China. An annual average of 144,000 visitors visited London between 2004 and 2016, compared to 35,000 in Edinburgh. Other spots were Manchester, Cambridge, and Oxford. More than 250,000 holidaymakers from China spent more than half a billion pounds in the United Kingdom last year. That number is expected to rise as disposable income (可支配收入) and the ranks of the Chinese middle class continue to grow,rising to 500,000 by 2026. The number was only 500 in 1996.
