When I walked in, a cute little manager robot appeared, looking rather like a toaster with blinking (眨) blue eyes. It escorted me to a nice table in the back. The menu monitor popped out of my table and showed me pictures of my dining choices. I tapped my choices and clicked OK, and the screen slid back down. I watched as full plates rode the conveyer belts that moved along each aisle (过道) of tables. In just a few minutes, my dish stopped at my table, and I took it from the belt. Later, I placed my empty plate back on the conveyer belt, and it was taken away into kitchen to be cleaned. I watched the little toaster showing customers to tables while I ate my main dish. The food was delicious, but I was starting to feel extremely angry because dealing with robots always makes me feel inhuman. Pretty soon, I wanted to talk to someone real, even if it was just a few sentences. So when my dessert arrived, I took action. I dropped my plate on the floor with a satisfying crash. I was so happy when I saw the manager toaster’s blinking red eyes—at last, a real live person would arrive! But instead, a crew of two robots quickly appeared. A robot broom rushed over and started to sweep the piece of the broken plate into a robot garbage can. They finished and moved back into the kitchen. My plan to get a little reality into Sophie’s Eatery failed. I hope the robo-restaurant trend ends soon. I want to deal with people again! 34. What does the underlined word “escorted” in paragraph 2 mean? A. Registered. B. Guided. C. Conducted. D. Rushed 35. What is the purpose of the author crashing his plate? A. To deal with a real human. B. To catch attention from the robots. C. To play jokes on the robots. D. To complain about the bad service. 36. Which of the following best describes the author’s feeling at Sophie’s Eatery? A. Satisfied. B. Shocked. C. Annoyed. D. Curious. 37. What is the text mainly about? A. The trend of dining with robots. B. The advantage of robo-restaurants. C. The food variety of a robo-restaurant. D. The dining experience at a robo-restaurant. C Video conferencing has been around for more than 20 years. In the past, you would find that many people needing to attend a meeting remotely would be calling from a real conference room full of their teammates. Today, we’re routinely holding video conferences that are 100% virtual. And this is creating a problem that technology can’t fix. The problem is us, specifically the fact that we haven’t evolved socially to the point where we can bear much separation. So much of our well-being and work productivity is decided on how close we are physically. The removal of that for any period of time can be severely damaging. One surprising victim of social distance is laughter. Normally people laugh about 18 times per day. And 97% of that time we’re laughing with others—we are 30 times more likely to laugh with others than to laugh alone. Think about it: how often when you and your friends laugh at something, is that something actually funny? Research shows that 80% of what people laugh at is really not that funny. So why do people laugh? They laugh in order to laugh with others. Just as everyone starts yawning when just one person yawns, most people can’t help but laugh when those around them do. This is why TV comedy shows often use prerecorded laugh tracks. Laughing in response to other people’s laughing is not just a behavioral phenomenon. When we laugh, our body produces two key chemicals: endorphin which helps relieve pain and sets off feelings of pleasure, and dopamine which can improve learning, motivation and attention. In fact, statistics show that people can stand 15% more pain simply by laughing for a few minutes beforehand. Laughter is also associated with higher motivation and productivity at work. In today’s home-alone, virtual-team world, this is exactly what you as a team leader should be doing: for your team members to stay healthy and productive, you need to get them to laugh more and stress less. 38. What is the problem mentioned at the start of the text? A. Physical weakness. B. Social distance. C. Lack of technology. D. Reliance on virtual conferences. 39. What does the underlined word “This” in Paragraph 4 refer to? A. Laugh tracks are popular. B. Laughing is uncontrollable. C. Laughing comes more easily in groups. D. Laughing starts with yawning. 40. What can we learn from the fifth paragraph? A. Laughing can make our body lose some chemicals. B. Laughing may reduce our enthusiasm for work. C. Laughing is an unconscious behavioral phenomenon. D. Laughter has a great effect on our work. 41. What would the author most probably discuss next? A. Ways to tell the real world from the virtual world. B. Other factors that may influence a team’s health. C. Concrete steps to produce laughter in a team. D. The importance of maintaining work productivity. D Years ago it was popular to speak of a generation gap, a disagreement between young people and their elders. Parents said that children did not show them proper respect and obedience, while children complained that their parents did not understand them at all. What had gone wrong? Why had the generation gap suddenly appeared? Actually the generation gap has been around for a long time. Many people argue that a gap is built into the fabric of our society. One important cause of the generation gap is the chance that young people have to choose their own ways of life. In more traditional societies, when children grow up, they are expected to live in the same area as their parents, to marry people that their parents know and approve of, and to continue the family occupation. In our society, young people often travel great distances for their education, move out of the family home at an early age, marry or live with people whom their parents have never met, and choose occupations different from those of their parents. In our easily changing society, parents often expect their children to do better than they did: to find better jobs, to make more money, and to do all the things that they were unable to do. Often, however, the strong wish that parents have for their children is another cause of the disagreement between them. Often, they discover that they have very little in common with each other. Finally, the speed at which changes take place in our society is another cause of the gap between the generations. In a traditional culture, elderly people are valued for their wisdom, but in our society the knowledge of a lifetime may become out of date overnight. The young and the old seem to live in two very different worlds, separated by different skills and abilities. No doubt, the generation gap will continue to be a feature for some time to come. Its causes are rooted in the freedom and changes of our society, and in the rapid speed at which society changes. 42. What can we learn about the young people in the modern society according to the passage? A. They often depend on their parents to make a living. B. They live with their parents in the same area. C. They have very little in common with their parents. D. They often ask their parents for the best advice. 43. What can we infer from Paragraph 3? A. The generation gap is partly caused by the older generation. B. Parents should be strict with their children. C. Parents couldn’t do things well themselves. D. The young never want to satisfy their parents. 44. Which of the following is one of the causes of the generation gap according to the passage? A. Parents are not strict enough with their children. B. The society develops too fast. C. Young people don’t have the knowledge of a lifetime. D. The young value the old too much for their wisdom. 45. What is the passage mainly about? A. The concept of the generation gap. B. Attitudes towards the generation gap. C. Ways to reduce the generation gap. D. The reasons for the generation gap. 第二部分：客观题(共两节，满分25分) 第一节：阅读表达(共5小题;每小题2分，满分10分) 阅读下列短文，按照要求用英文回答问题. When Veronika Scott was a student at the College for Creative Studies in Detroit. Michigan, she received a task to “design to fill a need.”She dreamed up an idea for overcoats that would double as sleeping bags, made 25 of them, and handed them out to people living in shelters on an abandoned city playground. While her efforts were greeted mostly with enthusiasm from those braving Detroit's cold winters, one woman voiced dissatisfaction. “We don't need coats; we need jobs.” she told Veronika. Then she had her second inspiration. After graduating from college in 2012, Veronika founded the Empowerment Plan, a nonprofit organization. She hired two homeless women to sew the coats and paid them with donations she received through her blog. Now, the Empowerment Plan employs about 20 people and has produced more than 10,000 coats and distributed them in 30 states, Canada, and elsewhere abroad. “We don't require previous employment,” Veronika says. “We’re looking for people who are motivated." The Empowerment Plan provides free classes and lends money to those who qualify. Nearly all the employees eventually move into permanent housing, and some get jobs in the auto industry and construction. Veronika has bettered the coat's design by making its outer layer of a lightweight material that resists air, wind, and water and its inner layer of a material that stores body heat. Still, Veronika is less focused on the coats than on the workers who make them. “At the end of the day,” she says, “the coat is a vehicle for us to employ people.” 46. What did Veronika Scott do to finish her task from her studies? (no more than 15 words) 47. Where did Veronika Scott get her second inspiration?(no more than 10 words) 48. What is Veronika’s purpose of founding Empowerment Plan? (no more than 10 words) 49. What does the underlined word mean in the Paragraph?(no more than 1 words) 50. What do you think of Veronika? Why?
