It is closely connected with less pollution, saving money and not  ___36___ to the overwhelming (巨大的) disorder that takes place in some of the world’s most touristic areas. The concept of staycation was born at the time of the 2008 market crisis in the United States. Because of it, many households were forced to restrict their vacation budget. The shortage of money to travel abroad is at the origin of why many people started to rediscover their ___37___ places.  At the same time, ___38___ on the environmental impacts of tourism, especially what concerns the impacts of transportation, started to increase too. And the perception (感知) that some of the main cities abroad are increasingly overloaded with people also increases, so places such as Barcelona, Venice, or the Seychelles planning to introduce a tourist ___39___. Staycation appears like a great solution for the challenges above mentioned. In fact, staying close to home will ___40___the budget for accommodation and transport.  Apart from the financial savings, staycation also has the benefit of keeping harmful ___41___ in the ground. Cars, boats, and planes are not (or are less) used; instead, other means of transport such as public transport, bicycles, electric scooters or just walking are ___42___. This allows people’s carbon footprints to decrease as much as they would if long distances had been traveled. A staycation is a form of alternative (另类的) tourism that is fully in line with the slow tourism ___43___. Slow tourism invites you to live in the ___44___ moment. It encourages you to take your time, discover nearby landscapes, reconnect and spend more time outdoors in nature with the people you enjoy. There are no fully-booked days, and no rush to go from one activity to another just to stay busy all the time. Given the multiple advantages of local tourism, you no longer have a reason to be ___45___ at the coffee machine at work when you are asked where you are going on vacation this year. III. Reading Comprehension (30') Section A (15') Directions: For each blank in the following passage there are four words or phrases marked A, B, C and D. Fill in each blank with the word or phrase that best fits the context. About two months ago, I removed Uber Eats (外卖软件) from my phone, but not because I didn’t like using it. I ___46___ it. Ordering what you feel like eating and having it delivered to your door within about 30 minutes is a luxury, for a small ___47___. Like most other well affordable modern luxuries though, there are hidden ___48___. And it’s increasingly harder to pretend we couldn’t see them. A headline in the Washington Post read, “Restaurants are barely ___49___. Delivery apps will kill them.” Many other articles have explored the predatory (压榨他人的) sign-up tactics (策略) and high commissions (佣金) and fees taken by these tech companies. But the most apparent impact is on human lives. Delivery riders have been ___50___ in accidents while trying to complete their orders. These deaths are part of a larger narrative about poor working ___51___ for riders. One friend said to me, “I can’t ___52___ the thought of someone dying delivering me a dessert.” That was it. I ___53___ the app and haven’t used it, or any of its competitors, since. Instead of ordering on a whim (一时兴起), now I either cook something good or get takeaway from a place in walking or driving distance. This approach has saved me a lot of money. As with a lot of online shopping, I’d been ordering food mindlessly, giving only a brief thought to its price and value. Cooking is almost always ___54___ and so is old-school takeaway. All of these changes have cost me one thing — time. One reason why the apps are so popular is that so many people are burned out, stressed or attracted by ___55___. With delivery, I didn’t have to think about dinner until the last minute, like after I finished work or returned from the gym. By this time, I was already ___56___, and the shops were all closed. Having to plan meals again actually made my life less ___57___. Some days it’s a good incentive to stop working earlier, to close my laptop and go to the shops, walk to the pizza place, or start chopping onions. Cooking is one of those activities that require both of your hands and all your ___58___. Walking to pick up takeaway forces you to, well, go for a walk. The change in habit forced me to be on my devices a bit less and to be in my actual life and neighbourhood a bit more. The process has made me think about how a lot of technological ___59___ do save us time, but time for what? For me, the answer was often just more time working, or more time online. Making my own food feels like taking back time I had ___60___ for things far less nourishing (有营养的). 46. A. doubted B. feared C. hated D. loved 47. A. clue B. error C. favor D. fee 48. A. costs B. crimes C. dangers D. taxes 49. A. engaging B. relaxing C. suffering D. surviving 50. A. cursed B. killed C. rejected D. tricked 51.

A. artificial B. fulfilling C. relevant D. stressful 58. A. attention B. ambition C. consideration D. supervision 59. A. advances B. challenges C. reviews D. licences 60. A. checked out B. given up C. looked for D. set up Section B (11') Directions: Read the following passages. Each passage is followed by several questions or unfinished statements. For each ofthem there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage you have just read. (A) Today, tanning is popular among American teenage girls. An ordinary American girl Lucy has said, "My first thing in the morning on Sundays is visiting tanning parlors (晒黑店). The tanning beds are cool at the first. By the end of the day, they are really hot when it's done and it feels like you are sweating to death. " Lucy is one of the 2.4 million girls who pop into tanning parlors this year, twice the number of last year. At the parlors, they lie in special beds that emit ultraviolet (UV) radiation, similar to that given off by the sun. Although many teenage girls believe a dark color is a sign of health and beauty, the doctors can hardly agree. They worry about the long-term results of so much UV radiation, saying indoor tanning may lead to a frightening increase in skin cancer among the young. And it is reported that skin cancer has doubled in the US since 1975 among women aged 15 to 29. The timing coincides with the rise of tanning business in the US. However, it's a real challenge to fight the teenage culture that encourages tanning. Most girls think that tanning is a cool thing and makes them become spotlights of the teenage groups. Images of teenage icons such as Paris Hilton and Jessica Simpson add to the tanning rush. And despite how parents frown on the idea, the cheap price of the tanning which every girl can afford also takes a hand in the trend. And now with the situation getting worse and all the current solutions having nearly no effect, many doctors are calling on the government to step in and bring in some restrictions on teenage tanning, for the health of the young, as they have said. 61. According to the passage, tanning in the parlor is working through _______. A. bathing in the sun for a long time to get the skin dark B. adding a specially-made powder to the body to make the skin dark C. lying in bed and getting heat to make the body tanned D. receiving some radiation to get tanned 62. The doctors disagree with tanning because _______. A. it can't make people look beautiful at all B. it will make people worried and low-spirited C. it will increase the risk of skin cancer. D. the tanning parlors are not clean enough 63. All of the following statements are the reasons for the popularity of tanning among teenage girls EXCEPT _______. A. Teenage girls have a wrong concept about being cool and attractive. B. Many icons give bad examples by getting tanned. C. Many parents encourage the girls to get tanned. D. The low expenses encourage the girls to get tanned. 64. What is NOT TRUE according to the passage? A. Indoor tanning takes place in tanning parlors. B. Last year about 1.2 million girls received tanning service. C. The development of tanning business has something to do with the rise of cancer cases among young women. D. Many methods have been useful in stopping girls from getting tanned. (B) LIPITOR Atorvastatin Calcium Tablets WHO IS LIPITOR FOR?

Children are likely to grow up thinking everything is sentient (有感觉能力的), or at least interactive: One app developer told the Washington Post that after interacting with Amazon’s Alexa, his kid started talking to coasters. But even without chatty gadgets, research suggests that under certain circumstances, people anthropomorphize everyday products. We personify things because we’re lonely. In one experiment, people who reported feeling isolated were more likely than others to give free will and consciousness to various devices. In turn, feeling attached to objects can reduce loneliness. When college students were reminded of a time they’d been excluded socially, they made up by lying about their number of friends on social networks－unless they were first given tasks that caused them to interact with their phone as if it had human qualities. The phone apparently stood in for real friends. When we personify products, they become harder to cast off. After being asked to evaluate their car’s personality, people were less likely to say they are intended to replace it soon. And anthropomorphizing objects is associated with a tendency to accumulate. So how do people assign characteristics to an object? In part, we rely on looks. On humans, wide faces are associated with dominance. Similarly, people rated cars, clocks, and watches with wide faces as more dominant-looking than narrow-faced ones, and preferred them—especially in competitive situations. An analysis of car sales in Germany found that cars with grilles (格栅) that were upturned like smiles and headlights that were slanted (倾斜的) like narrowed eyes sold best. The purchasers saw these features as increasing a car’s friendliness and aggressiveness respectively. It’s little wonder so many companies use mascots(吉祥物) to bring brands to life. An analysis of 1151 brand characters found symbols that were human or humanlike to be common. Personifying products and brands can backfire, however. When a coffee maker was anthropomorphized in an ad (“I am Aroma” versus just “Aroma”), consumers felt betrayed by increases in its price. Now that speech-enabled coffee makers are on the market, maybe the machines can sweet-talk their way back into consumers’ hearts. 68. The word “anthropomorphize” (in paragraph 1) most probably means _______. A. think highly of something B. find a better way to rate something C. see something as humans D. use something as often as possible 69. For the college students, the interaction with the phone served as a reminder that _______. A. they were not lonely B. they needed real friends C. the phone had human qualities D. the phone wasn’t necessary 70. The writer mentions an analysis of car sales in Germany in order to _______. A. show that friendliness is better received than aggressiveness B. highlight that a symbol looking like a smile appeals more to people. C. explain why so many companies use mascots to promote their brands. D. illustrate that people will judge something according to its appearance 71. What can be inferred from the last paragraph? A. Consumers should know more about a product before it is on the market. B. Products with a mascot are more likely to win consumers’ hearts. C. Increases in a product’s price may be accepted with a good advertisement. D. The personification of a product may not always work. Section C (4') Directions: Complete the following passage by using the sentences in the box. Two sentences are not needed. A. Decide the main point you want to cover first. B. When you are comfortable with the list, then you focus on the sequence. C. If you have drafted the version, then you need to revise it. D. That is to keep content away from form. E. Now expand the statement into 10 or 20 points that you want to outline. F. However, there is a better way to compose quality work. There is one essential rule in writing an essay or article. __72__ They are two entirely different things, and should be worked on separately. Content is what you want to say. Form is the organization of what you want to say. Let’s say you start writing without much planning. Typically, the things you want to say will swirl (旋绕) around in your head with the structure and the style that you hope to achieve. Working on both is just like trying to rub your stomach and pat your head at the same time. That can be exhausting. Trying to deal with form and content at the same time almost guarantees false starts. __73__ First, settle on the content and then deal with form. Think about what you want to say. Write this down in a simple or brief sentence or two. Just as skyscrapers can first be designed in a small sketch on a napkin, a perfect essay often start with a short statement, which means always creating at least one draft before producing a final version. This strategy will come in handy for the rest of your assignment. If you’ve got time, carry this statement around with you for some time. Read it over and over. Is this precisely what you intend to say? Don’t move past this step until you can answer “yes”. __74__ A “point” can be any separate thought, large or small. Again, carry this list around for some time if possible. You want to be satisfied that this list of points is complete. Everything you intend to say is right there on that piece of paper. __75__ Read back and forth over the list. Try to identify the point you would like to start with and label that A. What would be the next most logical or emotional point? Label that B. Continue until every point has a letter. Now read the points in the new sequence. How does that sound? If it sounds perfect or almost, rearrange all the points in the new sequence, A to whatever… The procedure described so far might add extra time to the beginning of a writing but will often save several hours later on. Be smart. First determine all the points you want to cover. Then determine the best arrangement of those points. IV.
