Yet behind China's teen doxxing epidemic lies a deeper story of bullying,absent parents,and young people desperately 45 connection and control.For instance,Gao Yi,known as "Dragon King"in China's underground doxxing community,began doxxing with his own experiences as a victim of school bullying. 46 gifted,he was often praised by teachers,which his primary school classmates interpreted as favoritism, leading to his social exclusion.In middle school,bullies would simply 47 him or throw his water bottle around the playground like a game. When advertisements for"doxxing services"began circulating in his QQ group chats,Gao saw an opportunity to finally showcase his technical skills and gain the recognition he desired.He began immersing himself in the online doxxing world. Gao advertised his services on WeChat,partly for extra income but48 to showcase his skills. Desperate to make friends,he used his earnings to treat other boys in his class to meals and karaoke sessions.But when his doxxing business grew smaller and he could no longer afford to treat them,they left.Feeling betrayed,he withdrew from their group chat and became more deeply 49 in the doxxing community. Offline,Gao's life remained hollow:his father,a migrant worker,returned home only twice a year,and his mother,busy with factory work,seldom noticed his emotional struggles.His sister,12 years older,remained emotionally distant,50 their interactions only to small talks during her weekly visits. Yet online,when he mentioned lacking funds for servers and database building,followers eagerly offered financial help.When he shared his feelings,thousands read and 51 to his experience,offering comfort through their own similar stories of loneliness and rejection. Looking back on his doxxing days,Gao reflects,"It was all about vanity,the feeling of being famous." 4 III.Reading Comprehension Section A Directions:For each blank in the following two passages there are four words or phrases marked A B.C and D. Fill ineach blank with the word or phrase that best fits the context. Is a lottery a fairer system? The annual secondary school offer day is behind us now.Thousands of parents and pupils across the country will be breathing a huge sigh of 52 to have got a place at their first or second choice school for September. Or they may 53 to get any of their favoured options and are waiting anxiously to see if that will change in the next few months. The vexed issue of how to guarantee all parents a place in their 54 school has been fiercely contested. Early indications this year suggest huge 55 in the chances of success between different parts of the country.In some areas just over half of applicants got a place at their favourite school.Elsewhere nearly every child does.In practice the schools market can be a steep hierarchy in which the most 56 schools with high reputation and advanced facilities enjoy a cycle of strong performance and popularity among the candidates.But these school are often 57 children from poorer backgrounds.Why?Studies have suggested school reputation can58 up to f70,000 to the price of a house in the surrounding area,and only wealthy families can afford to buy homes in close proximity to the select schools to earn a place there One solution proposed by the Sutton Trust is wider use of lotteries()for school 59.Technically known as"60 allocation ()"this method designates places using a ballot rather than nearness in space once a school is oversubscribed.In theory,this should give all parents an equal chance of success while 61 social selection fuelled by wealthy families buying homes near sought-after schools. But how are lotteries working 62 An earlier study commissioned by the Sutton Trust in 2014 suggested they were being used in fewer than 50 schools.Eight of these are in Brighton and Hove,where the council introduced the scheme for its community schools 10 years ago to try to63 what had become known as a"golden halo"of expensive housing around two well-known schools in the centre of the city.So far,the effect of adopting lottery has been mostly beneficial. 64,this year 147 pupils across the city failed to get any of their three preferences,including Visvalingam's daughter."It is clear that without enough places there are still going to be winners and losers with a lottery system.” Niki Wadden Laing is also 65 a place for her son."The problem is that the mixture of lottery and catchments has given many parents a false sense of 66 that they will get a school in their local area,"she says."Children go to visit their catchment schools,they think they will be going there with all their friends.When it doesn't work out,it seems very unfair." 52.A.astonishment B.relief C.concern D.disappointment 53.A.regret B.fail C.neglect D.expect 54.A.preferred B.pleased C.imposed D.related 55.A.desperation B.variation C.justice D.equality 56.A.convenient B.authoritative C.remote D.advantaged 57.A.accused of B.ashamed of C.inaccessible to D.limited to 58.A.devote B.associate C.take D.add 59.A.expectations B.admissions C.preferences D.examinations 5 60.A.unfortunate B.ordered C.random D.ignorant 61.A.reducing B.accelerating C.enhancing D.admitting 62.A.in theory B.in principle C.in detail D.in practice 63.A.yield to B.make up C.go through D.break down 64.A.However B.Therefore C.Rather D.Instead 65.A.without B.against C.beyond D.in 66.A.pressure B.security C.vocation D.temptation Section B Directions:Read the following three passages.Each passage is followed by several questions or unfinished statements.For each of then there are four choices marked A B,C and D.Choose the one that fits best according to the infornation given in the passage you have just read (A) Academic learning is usually in the spotlight at school,but teaching elementary-age students"soft"skills like self-control and how to get along with others might help to keep at-risk kids out of criminal trouble in the future,a study finds Duke University researchers looked at a program called Fast Track,which was started in the 1990s for children who were identified by their teachers and parents to be at high risk for developing aggressive behavioral problems. The students were randomized into two groups;half took part in the intervention (which included a teacher-led curriculum,parent training groups,academic tutoring and lessons in self-control and social skills.The program,which lasted from first grade through tenth grade,reduced arrests and use of health and mental health services as the students aged through adolescence and young adulthood,as researchers explained in a separate study.In the latest study,researchers looked at the "why"behind those previous findings.In looking at the data from nearly 900 students,the researchers found that about a third of the impact on future crime outcomes was due to the social and self-regulation skills the students learned from ages 6 to 11. The academic skills that were taught as part of Fast Track turned out to have less of an impact on crime than did the soft skills,which are associated with emotional intelligence."The conclusion that we would make is that these soft skills should be emphasized even more in our education system and in our system of socializing children,"says Kenneth Dodge.a professor at Duke who was a principal investigator in this study as well as in the original Fast Track project.Parents should do all they can to promote these skills with their children,Dodge says, as should education policymakers. To Neil Bernstein,a psychologist in Washington,D.C.,who specializes in child and adolescent behavior disorders,the researchers'findings seem to match what he's seen among the general public in working with children for more than 30 years.And while he says he agrees with the importance of teaching self-control and social skills,he would add empathy to the list,too. "Empathy is what makes us aware of the feelings of others,and when you're empathetic,you're much less likely to hurt someone else's feelings,says Bernstein,who serves on the advisory board for the Partnership for Drug-Free Kids."Being in tune with how someone else feels might also make adolescents avoid bullying and other behaviors of concern,"Bernstein says. While Bernstein thinks the study's findings are meaningful and could potentially serve as a model for schools, he says that collectively getting a school system,teachers,parents and students all motivated enough to take part in an intervention like Fast Track is challenging. 6 66.Fast Track is aimed to A.improve children's academic skills B.help the children with behavior disorders C.identify the problematic children D.classify children into different groups 67.Neil Bernstein thinks that A.empathetic children are more likely to have higher emotional intelligence. B.the findings of the studies disagree with what he has found in his work. C.empathy is equally essential in educating and socializing children. D.self-control and social skills are not as important as empathy. 68.What can be learned from the passage? A.It's hard to involve everyone concerned in applying the findings. B.Soft skills were not part of the education system in the past. C.The findings are meaningless unless guided by Fast Track. D.Adolescence is the most critical stage in a person's life. 69.What does the passage mainly tell us? A.Academic skills are paid too much attention at schools. B.Academic skills have no influence on children's behaviors. C.Soft skills are much harder to develop than academic skills. D.Soft skills play a significant role in preventing future crimes. (B) The governess was one of the most familiar figures in mid-Victorian life and literature.The 1851 Census revealed that 25,000 women earned their living teaching and caring for other women's children.Most governesses lived with their employers and were paid a small salary on top of their board and lodging. From the 1840s novelists started to put governesses into their fiction.In 1847 Charlotte Bronte published Jamne Evre,the story of a governess who eventually marries her employer,Mr Rochester.The same year William Thackeray started publishing Vomity Fair,in which a scheming young governess called Becky Sharp cheats her way through the high society.It made sense for the Victorian heroine to be a governess.Just like an orphan,the governess had to make her own way in the world,with no resources to call upon.Her status as a'lady'allowed her to mix in the best circles,but the fact that she worked meant that she also encountered all sorts of people and situations that would have been far-fetched for a girl who lived with her parents. Who became a governess? The first part of the 19th century was marked by deep economic distress.A series of bank failures meant that many middle-class families found themselves destitute overnight.Young men from good homes could go out to work from the age of 15 without being ashamed.But their sisters,educated to be"ladies",would have felt humiliated to be seen serving in a shop or working in a factory alongside working-class girls.The only possibility was to get a job as a teacher. Who employed a governess? The upper classes had employed governesses for centuries.But from the beginning of the 19th century the wealthier sections of the middle classes followed suit.Employing a governess sent a signal that the lady of the house was too"genteel"to teach her daughters herself.Just as she employed servants to clean her house,she paid another woman to raise her children.Hiring a governess became a status symbol. What did the governess teach? The governess could find herself teaching"the three Rs"(reading,writing and arithmetic)to the youngest.If her pupils were older teens,the governess would also be expected to instruct them in key "accomplishments"such as drawing,playing piano,and dancing,all designed to attract a husband in a crowded marriage market.The governess might also be in charge of small boys up to the age of eight.She was expected to look after her pupils moral education too,setting a good example of modest,moral behaviour. 70.The reason why governesses flooded Victorian literature is that A.the Victorian readers preferred stories of orphaned governesses B.governesses were more morally desirable than the leisured ladies who don't work C.governesses proved the possibility of climbing the social ladder without resources D.governesses had access to the complex world where she experienced various adventures 71.Which is TRUE according to the text? A.Most governesses had to choose between free accommodation and humble wages. B.The governess was not allowed to teach young boys. C.Governessing was the most ladylike and respectable vocation available for women. D.The wealthy employers wished to learn from the governess how to teach their own daughters. 72.Which historical illustration best depicts the duty of a governess mentioned in the text? The New governess:"Why are you staring so intently, Blanche,dear? Blanche:“I was trying to count the freckles(雀斑)on your face,Miss Sandpole,but I can't!" The New governess:"If you saw a poor man starving in the street,wouldn't you give him some of your pudding,Tommy?" Tommy:“I'd give him some of yours..” 8 Proud Mother (to the new Governess):"And here is a pencil,Miss Green,and a note-book in which I wish you to write down all the clever and remarkable things the dear children may say during your walk." The new Governess:“How dare you Tommy！I shall tell your mommy!" Tommy:“Oh,Idon't care what1 nommy says！' (C) When Jane Goodall first arrived at Gombe Stream Game Reserve in what is now Tanzania in 1960,little was known about the world of chimpanzees.But the 26-year-old secretary would go on to make groundbreaking discoveries through her immersive,unorthodox observations.In fact,Goodall,who died on October 1,lacked formal academic training. Born in London in 1934,Goodall had long been fascinated by both Africa and animals."When I was 10,I dreamed of going to Africa,living with animals and writing books about them,"Goodall told CNN."Everybody laughed at me because I was just a girl,we didn't have any money [and]World War II was raging." Unable to afford college and encouraged by her mother to learn typing and bookkeeping,Goodall sought steady employment by attending secretarial school.Still,Goodall found office work a bore.At age 23,Goodall was offered a job working with famed paleoanthropologist Louis Leakey at a natural history museum.Leakey believed her lack of formal scientific training,along with her passion for animals,would make her the right choice to study the social lives of chimpanzees at Gombe,and Goodall was enthralled by the idea."He wanted someone observant and not blinded by scientific theory." Because she didn't attend college,Leakey had trouble securing funding for the research."Eventually,though, he got a six-month grant,"she wrote."The British authorities had refused to let a young girl go into the forest alone -so my mother,Vanne,volunteered to accompany me." In 1960,Goodall began her observations.She took an unorthodox approach,immersing herself in their habitat, experiencing their complex society as a neighbor rather than a distant observer,and defying scientific convention by giving them names instead of numbers.She came to understand them not only as a species,but as individuals with personalities,complex minds,emotions and long-term bonds.Her findings on the tool-making practices of chimpanzees remain one of the most important discoveries in the world of primatology." With Leakey's influence,Goodall entered a doctoral program at Cambridge University in 1962 without an undergraduate degree-one of just a handful to do so,though she was not exactly enthusiastic about it. "I was only doing this thesis for Leakey's sake,"Goodall told the BBC."I'd never had an ambition to be a scientist and be part of academia."She was patronized by her mostly male classmates for giving the chimpanzees names and personalities."I didn't give them personalities,I merely described their personalities,"Goodall added. "Some scientists actually said I must have taught them (to use tools).That would have been amazing if I could have done that." 73.Which is NOT one of the reasons why Goodall's childhood dream of living in Africa with animals was laughed at then? A.Because she was a girl who is socially assumed as weak and incapable. B.Because she was lacking in finances. C.Because she majored in bookkeeping instead of animal study. D.Because with the World War II raging,the society was unstable. 74.Which lists all the reasons mentioned as to why Leakey engaged Goodall in his chimpanzee study? 1She is good at paying attention to details when observing the animals. 2She has passion for a scientific education in the wild to make up for her lack of official schooling. 3She is not restricted by the established theories and conventions in the field of science. 4 She is a genuine and devoted animal lover. A.①②④ B.③④ C.①②③④ D.①③④ 75.What can you infer from the text? A.Leakey had trouble seeking funding for the research because Goodall couldn't conduct it alone. B.Conventional approach to the study of chimpanzees was to number them and avoid intimate interaction. C.Goodall was not enthusiastic about her doctoral degree since quite a few scientists have also made it. D.Goodall hoped to have taught chimpanzees to use tools to prove to other scientists animal intelligence. 76.Which is the best title for the text? A.All animals are born equal,just as humans B.With passion for animals,Goodall proves a life-long learner C.With no college degree,Goodall still changed how we see chimpanzees D.Thinking out of the box is important Section C Directions:Read the following passage.Fill in each blank with aproper sentence given in the box.Each sentence can be used only once.Note that there are two more sentences than you need A.Most undergraduate classroom education aims to build students'human capital primarily,if not exclusively, through the development of academic skills known to enhance career outcomes and economic mobility. B.They do so despite entering college with modestly lower academic qualifications. C.For these athletes,it is reasonable to claim that labor market outperformance is less likely to come through socioeconomic channels and more likely to come through the development of skills important in careers. D.They are exploring whether professional recruiters,when presented with nearly identical resumes,infer that the athlete is good at working in teams. E.The researchers suggest that future studies should consider whether interactions between athletes and non-athletes could be encouraged to improve the career outcomes and work productivity of all students. AB.But that effect is small,says Gompers,and doesn't explain the even greater outperformance of athletes in socioeconomically and racially diverse sports such as football,basketball,and track and field.
