As a fellow freshman, I totally understand this feeling. It’s never easy to step into a new stage with faster study pace and unfamiliar surroundings, so please don’t be too hard on yourself. I’d like to share some practical advice with you to make it easier. First, make a detailed study plan in advance. You can list daily and weekly tasks for each subject, which helps you manage time well and avoid being overwhelmed by heavy schoolwork. Second, don’t hesitate to turn to your teachers for help proactively. Whether it’s raising your hand in class or visiting their offices after class, they are all experienced and more than willing to clarify difficult points and offer personalized study advice. Last but not least, stick to a regular daily routine. Go to bed and get up on time, and avoid staying up late to cram for lessons. A good rest, together with a little exercise after class, can keep you energetic for all-day study. Adapting to a new stage takes time and patience. Just take things step by step and stick to these small but meaningful habits. I firmly believe you’ll soon get used to the new life and make great progress in your studies.

For the blanks with a given word, fill in each blank with the proper form of the given word; for the other blanks, use one word that best fits each blank. The Transformative Power of Solo Travel Solo travel, considered by many as the ultimate form of self-discovery, has gained immense popularity among young adults in recent years. Unlike group tours 51 everything is arranged, traveling alone pushes individuals out of their comfort zones, forcing them to confront unexpected challenges. Statistics show that the number of solo travelers under 30 52 (increase) by 150% since 2015. What drives this trend? Psychologists suggest that young people, 53 grow up in an increasingly digital world, are pursuing authentic experiences that social media cannot provide. When you're alone in a foreign country and there is no one 54 (depend) on, every decision — from navigating public transportation 55 ordering food in a local dialect — becomes a lesson in independence. However, solo travel isn't without risks. Seasoned travelers recommend researching local customs thoroughly beforehand. In certain Middle Eastern countries, for instance, women who travel alone 56 (expect) to dress modestly to avoid unwanted attention. Failure to 57 (adjustment) to local cultural norms may lead to serious consequences. Ultimately, those who have experienced solo travel often describe it as life-changing and they became 58 (affection) toward traveling alone. The challenges overcome and perspectives gained tend to have 59 considerable effect that no classroom education can match. As travel writer Pico Lyer once remarked, “We travel initially to lose ourselves; we travel next to find ourselves.” Perhaps this explains 60 more young people are choosing to embark on journeys alone, seeking not just destinations, but transformations. Section C (10 points) Directions: After reading the passage below, fill in each blank with a proper word given in the box. Each word can only be used once. Note that there is one word more than you need. A．forms  B．present  C． reflected  D．direction  E. works F. dates  G. amazing  H. respect  I. key  J. former  K. factors China is widely known for its ancient civilisation which has continued all the way through into modern times, despite the many ups and downs in its history. There are many reasons why this has been possible, but one of the main 61 has been the Chinese writing system. At the beginning, written Chinese was a picture-based language. It 62 back several thousand years to the use of longgu— animal bones and shells (壳) on which symbols were carved by ancient Chinese people. Some of the ancient symbols can still be 63 in today’ s hanzi. By the Shang Dynasty, these symbols had become a well-developed writing system. Over the years, the system developed into different 64 , as it was a time when people were divided geographically, leading to many varieties of dialects (方言) and characters. This, however, changed under Emperor Qinshihuang of the Qin Dynasty. Emperor Qinshihuang unified (统一) the seven major states into one country where the Chinese writing system began to develop in one 65 . That writing system was 66 to connecting the Chinese people and culture. Even today, no matter where Chinese people live or what dialect they speak, they can all still communicate in writing. Written Chinese has also become an important means by which China’s 67 is connected with its past. People in modern times can read the classic 68 written by the Chinese in ancient times. The high 69 for the Chinese writing system can be seen in the development of Chinese characters as an art form, known as Chinese calligraphy, which has become an important part of Chinese culture. Today, the Chinese writing system is still an important part of Chinese culture. As China plays a greater role in global affairs, an increasing number of international students are beginning to appreciate China's culture and history through this 70 language. Ⅲ.

Each passage is followed by several questions or unfinished statements. For each of them 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 In winter, Harnmerfest is a thirty-hour ride by bus from Oslo, though why anyone would want to go there in winter is a question worth considering. It is on the edge of the world, the northernmost town in Europe, as far from London as London is from Tunis, a place of dark and fierce winters, where the sun sinks into the Arctic Ocean in November and does not rise again for ten weeks. I wanted to see the Northern Lights in Hammerfest. But now as I picked my way through Osto in late December, I was beginning to have my doubts. Things had not started well. I had overslept at the hotel, missing breakfast, and had to leap into my clothes. I couldn’t find a taxi and had to drag my overweight bag eight blocks to the central bus station. And now here I was arriving at the station two minutes before departure, and the girl at the ticket counter was telling me that she had no record of my reservation. “This isn’t happening,” I said. “I’m still at home in England enjoying Christmas.” Actually, I said, “There must be some mistake. Please look again.” The girl studied the passenger list. “No, Mr. Bryson, your name is not here.” But I could see it, even upside-down. “There it is, second from the bottom.” “No,” the girl decided, “that says Bernt Bjornson. That’s a Norwegian name.” “It doesn’t say Bernt Bjornson. It says Bill Bryson. Look at they, the two l’s. Miss, please,” But she wouldn’t have it. “If I miss this bus, when does the next one go?” “Next week at the same time.” Oh, splendid. “Miss, believe me, it says Bill Bryson.” “No, it doesn’t.” “Miss, look, I’ve come from England. I’m carrying some medicine that could save a child’s life.” She didn’t buy this. “I want to see the manager.” “He’s in Stavanger.” “Listen, I made a reservation by telephone. If I don’t get on this bus, I’m going to write a letter to your manager that will cast a shadow over your career prospects for the rest of this century.” This clearly did not alarm her. Then it occurred to me. “If this Bernt Bjornson doesn’t show up, can I have this seat?” “Sure.” Why don’t I think of these things in the first place? “Thank you,” I said. 86．What can be learned from the passage about Hammerfest? A．It is located in the South of the city of Oslo. B．It is where the Northern Lights can be seen. C．It is known as a town without sufficient power supply. D．It remains in the darkness from October till next March. 87．The writer got to the station just two minutes before the train departed because he spent much time ________. A．sleeping at the hotel B．packing everything into his luggage C．waiting for a taxi to send him there D．choosing suitable clothes to wear 88．By “Oh, splendid”, the writer meant that he actually felt ________. A．puzzled B．amazed C．worried D．relieved 89．Why did the writer say he was carrying some medicine and he would write to the manager? A．To tell the girl what he really wanted to do. B．To show the girl how angry he was with her. C．To warn the girl of the potential consequences. D．To persuade the girl to allow him onto the bus. B A project called “I Am A Scientist” is giving middle and high school students the opportunity to interact with modern-day researchers. Below are stories from some of the scientists who are involved in the program. Noor Al-Alusi, Epidemiologist (流行病学家) “I have a black belt in Taekwondo (跆拳道). I am driven by a deep desire to help others. I believe that all people have a fundamental right to health care.” Her work: During the Zika epidemic, Al-Alusi met with the communities that had been hardest hit by the virus, using data and mathematical models to keep them safe and healthy. Background: Al-Alusi was born in California but her parents emigrated from Iraq. This experience provided her with an understanding of the health needs of the immigrant community. Ryoji Amamoto, Neurobiologist (神经生物学家) “I’m a huge sports fan. I’ve traveled to more than 40 countries. I’m a licensed scuba diver but a terrible swimmer. I hated science in high school.” His work: Amamoto studies the tiny but amazing brains of animals that have a superpower — the ability to regenerate. He learns what factors help these special brains regrow, so that we can try to treat diseases like Parkinson’s. Background: Amamoto lived in Japan until the age of eight, when his family moved to Chicago. He had to overcome major language barriers which saw him shift between speaking English at school and Japanese at home. Yamicia Connor, Physician Scientist “I once competed in a robot competition. I love Beyonce. I love cooking. I’m a doctor who studies ways to improve women’s health.” Her work: Connor is a doctor at a hospital in Boston where she studies cancer cells in a lab using microscopes and computers, but she also works directly with patients who are undergoing tests for new cancer treatments. Background: Growing up in Florida, Connor was a serious kid who stressed about the little things. She was into her schoolwork and loved to put on plays with her friends in which she would organize the whole thing. 90．What can the students know about the scientists through the program? A．Their education experience. B．Their gender and religion. C．Their personal interests. D．Their career planning. 91．What is Noor Al-Alusi’s job? A．Studying amazing brains which can regrow. B．Using data and mathematical models to fight against viruses. C．Understanding the health needs of the immigrant community.

C Deep in the forests in the Siem Reap Province, Cambodia, the five lotus-flower-shaped towers of the large Angkor Wat stand tall towards the sky. When tourists arrive at the main gate, they will be attracted to the large temple (庙宇). Angkor Wat was part of a city as big as London. This city was at the center of an empire that covered areas from southern Vietnam to Laos, and from the Mekong River to Eastern Myanmar between the 9th and 15th centuries. By around 1500 A．D．, the Khmer capital was left behind empty, most likely after heavy floods and long droughts. Later, forests were all around the temples and buildings that lay hidden until their rediscovery in 1860. Angkor Wat’s inclusion in UNESCO’s World Heritage List in 1992 marked a milestone in the country’s recovery. The action of the protection and development of this cultural site is a typical example of international solidarity and proves to be one of UNESCO’s most important achievements. Thirty countries and a group of experts were brought together to work on scientific projects for the restoration (修复) of these amazing sites. The aim was to support long-term and environmentally friendly progress. Angkor has become a living laboratory showing the beauty of historic buildings. Walking through the temple, people see hundreds of beautiful figures on the walls telling the stories of these ancient people, and long hallways lined with many attractive supports. The fact that Angkor was taken off UNESCO’s List of World Heritage in Danger just twelve years later is a great achievement for most people of Cambodia. A large number of visitors from all over the world make their journey there enjoying the beautiful scenery. The large site now supports 700,000 local people and attracts some five million visitors whose flow (流动量) must be controlled each year. The local organizations in charge are carrying out several projects to encourage better development of the tourism industry. In this way, they hope to improve the lives of communities. 93．What probably caused people to leave the Khmer capital? A．The national wars. B．Its lack of forests. C．The natural disasters. D．Its inconvenient location. 94．What does the underlined word “solidarity” in Paragraph 3 probably mean? A．Joint effort. B．Good judgment. C．High recognition. D．Serious competition. 95．What may Cambodian people take great pride in according to the author? A．The stories about the figures on the temple walls. B．The fact that Angkor is used for scientific studies. C．The good recovery of their cultural sites in a short time. D．The inclusion of Angkor in UNESCO’s World Heritage List. 96．What can be inferred from the last paragraph? A．The flow of visitors to Angkor keeps rising. B．Tourism is being improved to benefit local living. C．The public is less worried about Angkor’s natural scenery. D．Tourism has had a negative influence on the local environment. Section C (8 points) Directions: Read the following passage. Fill in each blank with a proper sentence given in the box. Each sentence can be used only once. Note that there are two more sentences than you need. Do you ever find yourself studying really hard for a test but ultimately not doing so well? You spent hours reviewing your notes, only to receive a grade that doesn’t reflect your hard work. 97 Below are a couple of active studying methods that I found worked best for me. Method #1: Try explaining the concepts/theories that you’re studying to family members or friends. If you can explain it to them to a point where they can understand it, then that means you understand it. Method #2: 98 This helps our brain with classifying information. If you can fill up a table, that means you know enough about them. Understanding their similarities and differences will also be helpful for a test. Method #3: Study with friends. If you’re able to stay focused, studying with a group might be more fun and motivating than studying alone. 99 Pick potential test topics and hold discussions to gain insight into different ways of thinking about a problem. Method #4: This one shouldn’t be much of a surprise - flashcards. Flashcards are a great way to memorize important material! To make it more fun, write your flashcards using colorful pens and highlight important parts. 100 Studying can be boring, but finding ways to make it more fun can really help you do well on your tests. So don’t lose motivation - you’ve got this! A．It also often shows you that you know more of the material than you think. B．Try using some of these methods when you study for your next test, and see if you’ve improved. C．It’s not that you’re not smart - it’s just that you’re studying the wrong way. D．Identify what to compare and make sure it ties to the important content to be learned. E．Create compare-and-contrast tables for different concepts/theories. F．It’s also great to hear other people’s thoughts on the course material in case there’s anything you missed or misinterpreted. IV. Translation (3+3+4+5=15 points) Directions: Translate the following sentences into English, using the words given in the brackets. 101．警察发表了一份报告，称这起事故是一场“悲剧”。(release) 102．他一进入高中就决定努力学习，不再逃课了。(determine) 103．尽管全世界成人礼的传统因文化而异，但它们的主题都标志着一个人从童年向成年的转变。(vary) 104．这幅画是一位年轻的艺术家所画，他在20世纪因对于色彩的独特手法而崭露头角。(emerge, approach) V.
