Based on recommendations from the 2009 report, Discovering Ontario: a report on the future of tourism the ministry established 13 tourism regions, each with a strong Regional Tourism Organization.

Sort of. My husband and I were recently in Egypt, where the temperature was a bit warm for my tiny princess self. So, we left Egypt. Back home, my dearest friends struggled with health stuff, with family craziness... The game of life is hard, and a lot of us are playing hurt. I ache for the world but naturally I’m mostly watching the Me Movie, where balance and strength are beginning to fail. What can we do as the creaking elevator of age slowly arrive? The main solution is to get outside every day, ideally with friends. Old friends — even thoughts of them — are my comfort. Recently I was walking along a beach with Neshama. We go back 50 years. She is 84, short and strong. Every so often, she bent down somewhat tentatively (踌躇地) and picked up small items into a small cloth bag. “What are you doing?” “I’m picking up micro litter. I try to help where I can.” I reminded her of an old story. A great warhorse comes upon a tiny sparrow (麻雀) lying on its back with its feet in the air, eyes tightly shut with effort. The horse asks it what it’s doing. “I’m trying to help hold back the darkness.” The horse laughs loudly, “That is so funny. What do you weigh?” And the sparrow replies, “One does what one can.” This is what older age means. We do what we can. We continued our walk. Neshama bent tentatively to pick up bits of litter and started to slip, but I caught her and we laughed. We are so physically vulnerable in older age, but friendship makes it all a rowing machine for the soul. We can take it, as long as we feel and give love, and laugh gently at ourselves as we fall apart. We know by a certain age the great lie in our life — if you do or achieve this or that, you will be happy and rich. No. Love and service make us rich. 24. What does the author say about her present life? A. She leads a balanced life. B. She enjoys meeting old friends. C. She is really into movies. D. She struggles with family crises. 25. Why did the author mention the sparrow? A. To confirm Neshama’s fear. B. To offer her comfort. C. To change Neshama’s mind. D. To show her approval. 26. What does the underlined “it” in the last paragraph refer to? A Physical weakness. B. The great lie. C. The rowing machine. D. The broken soul. 27. What largely determines happiness in older age according to the author? A. Achieving important life goals. B. Enjoying life as you can. C. Living a life of love and service. D. Loving what is being done. 【答案】24. B 25. D 26. A 27. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇夹叙夹议文。文章主要描述了作者和丈夫在埃及的经历、与老朋友在海滩上散步的情景，以及通过讲述马和麻雀的故事来表达自己对生活、友情、年龄和努力的看法，强调友情、爱和服务的力量超越物质追求。 【24题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章第四段“What can we do as the creaking elevator of age slowly arrive? The main solution is to get outside every day, ideally with friends. Old friends — even thoughts of them — are my comfort.(随着年龄的电梯慢慢到来，我们能做些什么呢？主要的解决办法是每天出去走走，最好是和朋友一起。老朋友——哪怕只是想起他们——都是我的安慰。)”可知，作者烦恼的时候就想和朋友一起。由此可知，作者喜欢和老朋友见面。故选B。 【25题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章倒数第三段“And the sparrow replies, “One does what one can.”(麻雀回答说：“做自己能做的事。”)”以及倒数第二段“This is what older age means. We do what we can.(这就是老年的含义。我们做我们能做的。)”可推测出，作者提到麻雀的故事是为了表达作者对于麻雀行为的赞同，作者认为我们做自己能做的就可以了。故选D。 【26题详解】 词句猜测题。根据划线词上一句“We are so physically vulnerable in older age, but friendship makes it all a rowing machine for the soul. (上了年纪，我们的身体是如此脆弱，但友谊使它成为灵魂的划船机。)”可知，划线单词“it”所指的是上了年纪后，我们的身体会脆弱。故选A。 【27题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章最后一段“We know by a certain age the great lie in our life — if you do or achieve this or that, you will be happy and rich. No. Love and service make us rich.(到了一定的年龄，我们就会知道生活中最大的谎言——如果你做到了或实现了这个或那个，你就会快乐和富有。不。爱和服务使我们富有。)”可知，作者认为幸福不是通过实现重要的人生目标获得的，而是通过爱和服务的生活方式来获得的。故选C。 C Researchers say a new electrical device placed in three paralyzed patients has helped them walk again. The lower bodies of the three patients were left paralyzed after they suffered spinal(脊柱的)cord injuries. But a device implanted in the spinal cord was able to send electrical signals to the muscles to permit them to stand, walk and exercise. Scientists have discovered that neurons—which receive and send signals for muscle movements—often still work in injured patients with serious spinal cord injuries. However, past research into spinal cord injuries has centered on the stimulation of neurons. Now in the latest experiment led by Gregoire Court in e and Jocelyne Bloch of the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology in Lausanne, three paralyzed men were implanted a new electrical device designed to copy an action of the brain, in which it sends signals to the spinal cord that result in muscle movement. When the spinal cord receives the brain signals, it stimulates a collection of nerve cells that can activate different muscles. The researchers reported that all three patients who got the spinal cord implant were able to take their first steps within an hour after receiving them. Over the next six months, the patients regained the ability to take-part in more advanced walking activities, the study found. They were also able to ride bicycles and swim in community settings. Unlike other attempts to help paralyzed patients walk by stimulating nerves through the back of the spine, Court in e said that his team redesigned the devices so signals would enter the spine from the sides. This method permits more direct targeting and activation of spinal cord areas, he said. The team then developed artificial intelligence (AI) systems linked to the device. The AI controls electrodes on the device to send signals to stimulate individual nerves that control muscles needed for walking and other activities. However, because the patients’ muscles were weak from not being used, they needed help with supporting their weight the researchers said. It also took some time for them to learn to work with the technology. Still, Bloch said, “The more they train, the more they start lifting their muscles, the more fluid it becomes.” 28. What can be inferred from paragraph 2? A. Three paralyzed men recovered with the help of a new electrical device. B. Court in e and Bloch have found that neurons in paralyzed patients still work. C. The new electrical device can imitate the brain to send signals to the spinal cord. D. Stimulating the neurons is the focus of the latest research into spinal cord injuries. 29. How does the new device stimulate the spinal cord areas more directly? A. By using the AI system. B. By sending the signals to the brain. C. By making signals enter the spine from the sides. D. By stimulating nerves through the back of the spine. 30. Which can best describe Bloch’s idea in the last paragraph? A. Every garden has its weeds. B. Put the cart (运货马车) before the horse. C.

A 【解析】 【导语】本文为一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了一项新的研究发明，研究人员通过在三名瘫痪患者身上装置一种新型的电子设备从而帮助他们重新行走。 【28题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段“Now in the latest experiment led by Gregoire Courtine and Jocelyne Bloch of the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology in Lausanne, three paralyzed men were implanted a new electrical device designed to copy an action of the brain, in which it sends signals to the spinal cord that result in muscle movement.(目前，在由来自瑞士洛桑联邦理工学院的Gregoire Courtine和Jocelyne Bloch领导的最新实验中，三个瘫痪的人被植入一个新的电子设备，该设备可以复制大脑的动作，在这个动作中，它向脊髓发送信号到从而导致肌肉运动。)”可推断，这个新的电的设备会模仿大脑向脊髓发送信号。故选C。 【29题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段“Unlike other attempts to help paralyzed patients walk by stimulating nerves through the back of the spine, Courtine said that his team redesigned the devices so signals would enter the spine from the sides. (与其他通过刺激脊椎后部的神经来帮助瘫痪患者行走的尝试不同，Courtine说，他的团队重新设计了这种设备，使信号可以从两侧进入脊椎。)”可知，这种新的设备可以让信号从两侧进入脊椎。故选C。 【30题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“Still，Bloch said, ‘The more they train, the more they start lifting their muscles, the more fluid it becomes.’(尽管如此，Bloch说：“他们训练得越多，就越开始提升肌肉，肌肉就变得越流畅。”)”可知，越训练就越熟练。选项A“Every garden has its weeds. (人无完人)”；选项B“Put the cart (运货马车) before the horse. (本末倒置)”；选项C“It’s hard to please all. (众口难调)”；选项D“Practice makes perfect. (熟能生巧)”。根据句意，应表示熟能生巧。故选D。 【31题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段“Researchers say a new electrical device placed in three paralyzed patients has helped them walk again.(研究人员表示，在三名瘫痪患者身上放置的一种新的电子设备已经帮助他们重新行走。)”可推断，这篇文章的主要目的是介绍最近一项新的研究所取得的成果。故选A。 D Hiring processes can be thought of as a battle between integrity and dishonesty. You might imagine this is a simple fight between truth-seeking firms and self-promoting candidates and to a certain extent it is .But companies themselves are prone (有倾向的) to bend reality out of shape in ways that are self-defeating. Start with the obvious wrongdoers: job applicants. When it comes to writing the resume (简历)，they tend to massage (美化) reality into the most appealing shape possible .Everyone beyond a certain level of experience is a transformational leader personally responsible for generating millions income; the world economy would be about 15 times bigger than it actually is if all such claims were true. The average British spends four and a half hours a day watching TV and online videos. But each average job candidate is an enthusiast for public welfare, using their spare time only for worthy purposes, like volunteering in soup kitchens. But the tendency to stretch the truth infects companies as well as applicants. The typical firm will write a job description that invariably describes the work environment as fast-paced and innovative, and then lays out a set of improbable requirements for the ideal candidate someone who almost by definition does not exist. Sometimes, the requirements include an ability to go back and change the course of history. Too few firms offer an accurate account of what a position actually involves in their job previews, which are supposed to give prospective employees a genuine sense of the negatives and positives of the job, as well as a clear idea of the company’s corporate culture. One effective strategy is to lay out in text or video what a typical day in the role would look like. Such honesty can be its own reward. Research has long suggested that realistic job previews lead to lower turnover and higher employee satisfaction. A paper in 2011 by David Earnest of Towson University and his co-authors concluded that favourable perceptions of the organization's honesty are the best explanation for why. So a process designed to uncover the truth about job applicants would run a lot more smoothly if firms were also honest about themselves. 32. Why are “leader” and “enthusiast ” mentioned in paragraph 2? A. To present a rule. B. To give examples. C. To make a comparison. D. To explain a phenomenon. 33. What does the underlined word “stretch” in paragraph 3 mean? A. Overturn. B. Overstate. C. Overlook. D. Overestimate. 34. What are job previews expected to be like in paragraph 4? A. They show a position as it is. B. They are made either in text or video. C. They are favorable for bigger firms. D. They mainly contain negatives of a job. 35. Which of the following is the best title of the passage? A. Pains and gains of employees. B. Dishonest behavior of companies. C. How to be more appealing in hiring. D. How to get the lying out of hiring. 【答案】32. D 33. B 34. A 35. D 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章讲述了招聘过程中的不诚实现象，并探讨了应对措施。 【32题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段中“Start with the obvious wrongdoers: job applicants. When it comes to writing the resume (简历)，they tend to massage (美化) reality into the most appealing shape possible .Everyone beyond a certain level of experience is a transformational leader personally responsible for generating millions income; the world economy would be about 15 times bigger than it actually is if all such claims were true. The average British spends four and a half hours a day watching TV and online videos. But each average job candidate is an enthusiast for public welfare, using their spare time only for worthy purposes, like volunteering in soup kitchens. (从明显的犯错者开始：求职者。在写简历的时候，他们倾向于把现实尽可能地美化成最吸引人的样子。每个经验超过一定水平的人都是变革型的领导者，个人负责创造数百万的收入；如果所有这些说法都是真的，那么世界经济规模将是实际规模的15倍左右。英国人平均每天花四个半小时看电视和在线视频。但平均每位求职者都是热衷于公益事业的狂热者，他们只把业余时间用于有价值的目的，比如在施粥处做志愿者)”可知，本段提到了“领导者”和“狂热者”是为了解释求职者夸大事实的现象。故选D项。 【33题详解】 词句猜测题。根据划线词句前文“When it comes to writing the resume (简历)，they tend to massage (美化) reality into the most appealing shape possible .Everyone beyond a certain level of experience is a transformational leader personally responsible for generating millions income; the world economy would be about 15 times bigger than it actually is if all such claims were true.

One effective strategy is to lay out in text or video what a typical day in the role would look like. (很少有公司会在工作预演中准确地描述一个职位的实际工作内容，而预演的目的是让未来的员工真正了解这份工作的优缺点，以及公司的企业文化。一个有效的策略是在文字或视频中列出这个职位的典型一天是怎么过的)”可知，工作预演应该如实呈现一个职位是什么样子的。故选A项。 【35题详解】 主旨大意题。通读全文，根据第一段中“Hiring processes can be thought of as a battle between integrity and dishonesty.(招聘过程可以被看作是诚信与不诚实之间的一场战斗)”和最后一段中“Such honesty can be its own reward.(这种诚实本身就是一种回报)”可知，文章介绍了招聘过程中求职者和公司都倾向于夸大事实，很少有公司提供真实的职位预览，但研究表明诚实是一种回报，真实的职位预览会降低离职率，提高员工满意度，可知，D“如何让招聘不再说谎”符合主题，故选D项。 第二节（共 5 小题; 每小题 2.5 分, 满分 12.5 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。 Learning disorders, such as ADHD, dyscalculia, auditory processing disorder, and dysgraphia, can significantly impact a person’s life. ___36___ In fact, it’s been shown to impact about 20% of the world’s population, or 1 in 5 people.

All the students in our class were sitting anxiously except one, a tall handsome boy named Tommy who was considered the one most likely to win the race. Even, unlike other competitors, he was quite relaxed, standing beside the track and stretching himself. “Tommy! I bet you’ll win.” I yelled at him. “Just wait and see!” A big smile spread across his face. “May I have your attention, please? All the athletes are requested to proceed to the registration office.” A gentle voice caught our attention. “Tommy, your show time!” I shouted and gave him a thumb-up. Then, I saw all the athletes went to register, preparing for the game. Soon they were all on the starting line. Taking the best recording location, I raised my smartphone, ready to shoot. With the loud sound of the starting gun, all the competitors threw themselves forwards from the starting line like arrows. Tommy quickly took the lead with his excellent explosive power from long-term training. But there was one problem for me-I had to spare every effort to control my excitement in order to keep my shooting picture stable. “Come on, Tommy!” Still, I could hear the cheers of our classmates higher and higher. It seemed that Tommy had heard the powerful shouts and became full of strength. He kept adjusting his breath, maintaining a steady rhythm, and approaching the finish line step by step. Finally, with the cheers of the audience, Tommy crossed the finish line almost at the same time with the second-place finisher. How I wish I could rush to him and give him a big bear hug! But I could not. I had to finish recording the whole race, so I waited until the last competitor crossed the finish line. Suddenly, I noticed there was an unusual noise from the crowd. 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。 Tommy was ranked second on the scoreboard. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ The judge admitted the error and announced Tommy was the real champion. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】范文 Tommy was ranked second on the scoreboard. Feeling puzzled, Tommy immediately found the judge and pointed out this mistake politely. However, the second-place finisher insisted he was the winner. No one could tell exactly what had happened. Tommy was at a loss what to do, feeling frustrated. Then it suddenly occurred to me that I had recorded the whole process. Rushing to the judge, I showed him the video, which clarified the fact that it was Tommy who first arrived. The judge admitted the error and announced Tommy was the real champion. After learning the truth, the audience broke into thunderous applause. Tommy shouldered his way through the crowd, gate ring me in his arms with a proud smile on his face. We both knew this was not just a victory of a race, but also a victory of sticking to the truth and daring to fight for it in the face of injustice. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了汤米参加赛跑比赛，最后几乎与第一名同时冲过了终点线。结果汤米却显示排名第二，汤米没有屈服，坚持查明真相，最终裁判承认了误判，宣布汤米是真正的冠军。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“汤米在记分牌上排名第二”可知，第一段可描写汤米坚持查明真相，作者也帮助澄清了真相。 ②由第二段首句内容“裁判承认了误判，宣布汤米是真正的冠军”可知，第二段可描写汤米取得冠军以及作者的感悟。 2.续写线索：排名第二——找到教练——帮助澄清——承认误判——宣布冠军——作者感悟 3.词汇激活 行类 ①澄清：clarify/justify ②承认：admit/acknowledge ③坚持：stick to/ persist in 情绪类 ①困惑的：puzzled/confused ②沮丧的：frustrated/upset 【点睛】[高分句型1] Then it suddenly occurred to me that I had recorded the whole process. (运用了it 作形式主语、that引导的主语从句是真正的主语) [高分句型2] Rushing to the judge, I showed him the video, which clarified the fact that it was Tommy who first arrived.

Based on recommendations from the 2009 report, Discovering Ontario: a report on the future of tourism the ministry established 13 tourism regions, each with a strong Regional Tourism Organization. Each Regional Tourism Organization independent, industry-led and not-for-profit and each provides leadership and coordination to support competitive and sustainable tourism regions. As a result, Ontario’s tourism industry now has a stronger combined voice and is better equipped to attract more visitors, generate more economic activities, and create more jobs across the province.

So, we left Egypt. Back home, my dearest friends struggled with health stuff, with family craziness... The game of life is hard, and a lot of us are playing hurt. I ache for the world but naturally I’m mostly watching the Me Movie, where balance and strength are beginning to fail. What can we do as the creaking elevator of age slowly arrive? The main solution is to get outside every day, ideally with friends. Old friends — even thoughts of them — are my comfort. Recently I was walking along a beach with Neshama. We go back 50 years. She is 84, short and strong. Every so often, she bent down somewhat tentatively (踌躇地) and picked up small items into a small cloth bag. “What are you doing?” “I’m picking up micro litter. I try to help where I can.” I reminded her of an old story. A great warhorse comes upon a tiny sparrow (麻雀) lying on its back with its feet in the air, eyes tightly shut with effort. The horse asks it what it’s doing. “I’m trying to help hold back the darkness.” The horse laughs loudly, “That is so funny. What do you weigh?” And the sparrow replies, “One does what one can.” This is what older age means. We do what we can. We continued our walk. Neshama bent tentatively to pick up bits of litter and started to slip, but I caught her and we laughed. We are so physically vulnerable in older age, but friendship makes it all a rowing machine for the soul. We can take it, as long as we feel and give love, and laugh gently at ourselves as we fall apart. We know by a certain age the great lie in our life — if you do or achieve this or that, you will be happy and rich. No. Love and service make us rich. 24. What does the author say about her present life? A. She leads a balanced life. B. She enjoys meeting old friends. C. She is really into movies. D. She struggles with family crises. 25. Why did the author mention the sparrow? A. To confirm Neshama’s fear. B. To offer her comfort. C. To change Neshama’s mind. D. To show her approval. 26. What does the underlined “it” in the last paragraph refer to? A. Physical weakness. B. The great lie. C. The rowing machine. D. The broken soul. 27. What largely determines happiness in older age according to the author? A. Achieving important life goals. B. Enjoying life as you can. C. Living a life of love and service. D. Loving what is being done. C Researchers say a new electrical device placed in three paralyzed patients has helped them walk again. The lower bodies of the three patients were left paralyzed after they suffered spinal(脊柱的)cord injuries. But a device implanted in the spinal cord was able to send electrical signals to the muscles to permit them to stand, walk and exercise. Scientists have discovered that neurons—which receive and send signals for muscle movements—often still work in injured patients with serious spinal cord injuries. However, past research into spinal cord injuries has centered on the stimulation of neurons. Now in the latest experiment led by Gregoire Court in e and Jocelyne Bloch of the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology in Lausanne, three paralyzed men were implanted a new electrical device designed to copy an action of the brain, in which it sends signals to the spinal cord that result in muscle movement. When the spinal cord receives the brain signals, it stimulates a collection of nerve cells that can activate different muscles. The researchers reported that all three patients who got the spinal cord implant were able to take their first steps within an hour after receiving them. Over the next six months, the patients regained the ability to take-part in more advanced walking activities, the study found. They were also able to ride bicycles and swim in community settings. Unlike other attempts to help paralyzed patients walk by stimulating nerves through the back of the spine, Court in e said that his team redesigned the devices so signals would enter the spine from the sides. This method permits more direct targeting and activation of spinal cord areas, he said. The team then developed artificial intelligence (AI) systems linked to the device. The AI controls electrodes on the device to send signals to stimulate individual nerves that control muscles needed for walking and other activities. However, because the patients’ muscles were weak from not being used, they needed help with supporting their weight the researchers said. It also took some time for them to learn to work with the technology. Still, Bloch said, “The more they train, the more they start lifting their muscles, the more fluid it becomes.” 28. What can be inferred from paragraph 2? A. Three paralyzed men recovered with the help of a new electrical device. B. Court in e and Bloch have found that neurons in paralyzed patients still work. C. The new electrical device can imitate the brain to send signals to the spinal cord. D. Stimulating the neurons is the focus of the latest research into spinal cord injuries. 29. How does the new device stimulate the spinal cord areas more directly? A. By using the AI system. B. By sending the signals to the brain. C. By making signals enter the spine from the sides. D. By stimulating nerves through the back of the spine. 30. Which can best describe Bloch’s idea in the last paragraph? A. Every garden has its weeds. B. Put the cart (运货马车) before the horse. C. It’s hard to please all. D. Practice makes perfect. 31. What is the purpose of this text? A To introduce the findings of a recent research. B. To report the consequence of spinal cord injuries. C. To recommend a treatment for paralyzed patients. D. To compare a recent research with other previous researches. D Hiring processes can be thought of as a battle between integrity and dishonesty. You might imagine this is a simple fight between truth-seeking firms and self-promoting candidates and to a certain extent it is .But companies themselves are prone (有倾向的) to bend reality out of shape in ways that are self-defeating. Start with the obvious wrongdoers: job applicants. When it comes to writing the resume (简历)，they tend to massage (美化) reality into the most appealing shape possible .Everyone beyond a certain level of experience is a transformational leader personally responsible for generating millions income; the world economy would be about 15 times bigger than it actually is if all such claims were true. The average British spends four and a half hours a day watching TV and online videos. But each average job candidate is an enthusiast for public welfare, using their spare time only for worthy purposes, like volunteering in soup kitchens. But the tendency to stretch the truth infects companies as well as applicants. The typical firm will write a job description that invariably describes the work environment as fast-paced and innovative, and then lays out a set of improbable requirements for the ideal candidate someone who almost by definition does not exist. Sometimes, the requirements include an ability to go back and change the course of history. Too few firms offer an accurate account of what a position actually involves in their job previews, which are supposed to give prospective employees a genuine sense of the negatives and positives of the job, as well as a clear idea of the company’s corporate culture. One effective strategy is to lay out in text or video what a typical day in the role would look like. Such honesty can be its own reward. Research has long suggested that realistic job previews lead to lower turnover and higher employee satisfaction. A paper in 2011 by David Earnest of Towson University and his co-authors concluded that favourable perceptions of the organization's honesty are the best explanation for why. So a process designed to uncover the truth about job applicants would run a lot more smoothly if firms were also honest about themselves. 32. Why are “leader” and “enthusiast ” mentioned in paragraph 2? A. To present a rule. B. To give examples. C. To make a comparison. D. To explain a phenomenon. 33. What does the underlined word “stretch” in paragraph 3 mean? A. Overturn. B. Overstate. C. Overlook. D. Overestimate. 34. What are job previews expected to be like in paragraph 4? A. They show a position as it is. B. They are made either in text or video. C. They are favorable for bigger firms. D. They mainly contain negatives of a job. 35. Which of the following is the best title of the passage? A Pains and gains of employees. B. Dishonest behavior of companies. C. How to be more appealing in hiring. D. How to get the lying out of hiring. 第二节（共 5 小题; 每小题 2.5 分, 满分 12.5 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。 Learning disorders, such as ADHD, dyscalculia, auditory processing disorder, and dysgraphia, can significantly impact a person’s life. ___36___ In fact, it’s been shown to impact about 20% of the world’s population, or 1 in 5 people.
