At a nearby bookshop I paid for a membership card that allows me to borrow two or three books at a time and keep them for a month. Owning a book has its advantages. such as. allowing you to make notes to your heart’s content, and you can reread it anytime you want, but borrowing holds advantages, too. One consideration is space, and in my city where a. foot of land is worth an inch of gold, this issue speaks volumes when it comes to owning books. You want to reread a book, but just look at how many books there are on your bookshelf that you haven’t finished reading even once. People tend to finish books they borrow more quickly than the ones they own, mainly because of the pressure of a deadline. Several times during the year I stayed up late to finish a book the night before the due date. I finished about 10 more books that way. It is increasingly difficult to choose a good book because there are simply so many out there. Even if you choose only from a narrow area of interest, singling out 40 is challenging. Book reviews and the comments readers leave on the websites of online bookstores can be helpful in this regard. But you cannot judge a book by its review. What I do is try to find and borrow the book from the bookshop. Some are like fast food: you leaf through the pages and finish them in a flash. Some are strong in certain chapters but weak in others. Some have titles that scream at you but lack substance. I cut my losses by perusing (精读) on the spot or borrowing. Of the 40 I read from cover to cover, I bought four I thought were worth keeping. Strangely, I had not really set out to read those four books but happened upon them in the bookshop. That unpredictability is one of the exciting parts of this reading adventure. 41. How many advantages of owning a book are mentioned in Para. 2? A. One. B. Two. C. Three. D. Four. 42. What does the underlined part “speaks volumes” in Para. 2 mean? A. Matters a lot. B. Needs improvement. C. Exists for long. D. Creates confusion. 43. What is Para. 3 mainly focused on? A. The importance of rereading. B. An introduction to quick reading. C. The difficulties of finishing a book. D. An advantage of borrowing books to read. 44. What is the author’s attitude to book reviews? A. Favorable. B. Disapproving. C. Doubtful. D. Objective. 45. What is exciting about the author’s experience in the bookshop? A. He found some nice books unexpectedly. B. He built up the habit of perusing on the spot. C. He borrowed some books with great titles. D. He read 40 books from cover to cover. C Now, children who are recovering from a long-term illnesses in the hospital or at home may have a high-tech friend to help feel less lonely. And that friend is a robot called AV1. AV1 goes to school for a child who is homebound while recovering from a long-term illness. And the child’s school friends must help. They carry the robot between classes and place the robot on the child’s desk. A Norwegian company called No Isolation created the robot. The co-founders of No Isolation are Karen Dolva and Marius Aabel. Dolva explains how the robot AV1 works. She says from home, the child uses a tablet or phone to start the robot. Then he uses the same device to control the robot’s movements. At school, the robot becomes the eyes, ears and voice of the child. “So, it sits at the child’s desk in the classroom and the child uses a tablet or a phone to start it, control its movement with touch, and talk through it.” The student can partake in classroom activities from wherever he is recovering. The robot is equipped with speakers, microphones and cameras that make communicating easy. “It has speakers and microphones and cameras, and when the child speaks at home or in the hospital to his iPad it just comes out.” This smooth interaction helps the child keep up with lessons, join group discussions freely and even share small joys with peers in class. It well narrows the distance between their recovery place and school, letting them stay closely linked to campus life instead of being left out alone. The robot is designed to be tough. It is water proof and can take a fall from a desk without damage. Inside AV1, there is a small computer connected to 5G network. A small camera connected to a small computer could do the job. But that would not be the same. AV1 is large and looks like a human for a reason. Dolva says this is important because the robot is supposed to be a friend to the children. Hopefully AV1 will help some children feel less lonely while they are absent from class. 46. What can we know about AV1 in Para.2? A. Its function. B. Its prospect. C. Its developing history. D. Its production material. 47. What do the underlined words “partake in” in Para. 3 probably mean? A. make up for B. replace C. take part in D. design 48. What’s the advantage of the smooth interaction for the student? A. It makes the student forget the pain of recovery. B. It helps the student keep connected with campus life. C. It lets the student have more time to rest at home. D. It allows the student to make more new friends. 49. Why is AV1 designed to be human-like? A. To hold more advanced computer parts. B. To offer kids support and companionship. C. To make it tough enough against falls. D. To attract more attention in the classroom. 50. What is the best title for the text? A. The Development of Smart Robots. B. 5G Network: A Trend in Education. C. How to Cure Long-term Illnesses. D. AV1: A Bridge to School Life. D What does being “smart” mean? The 16th-century philosopher Michel de Montaigne argued that we made a big mistake in regarding book learning or formal school education as sources of our most important lessons. He famously said that we can be knowledgeable with another man’s knowledge but cannot be wise with another man’s wisdom. And wisdom — which, to Michel de Montaigne, meant living well — was the only kind of “smart”. Wisdom, Michel de Montaigne thought, was available to anyone who was prepared and able to reflect well on their experiences. Reflecting well means more than just taking account of things that have made you feel one way or another. It means understanding the most basic elements to which they can be reduced. How wonderful to realise that you were so happy when you were in Vondelpark in Amsterdam, not because you were on holiday and hundreds of kilometres from home, but because you had been around nature. A condition much easier to reproduce! Wisdom takes a little bit more, however, than an ability to reflect well. It requires being able to adjust your life to make the best use of self-knowledge, which, in turn, can take discipline. Wisdom has a lot to do with understanding the eventual gains we can harvest from short-term deprivations (匮乏) and inconveniences. One of the best lessons I’ve learnt this year is that denying my urge to check something online has led to myself being freed from the virtual world’s tight control. What does a smart person look like? I used to think it was someone you find in cafes with a complicated-sounding book in front of them. I tend, these days, to agree with Michel de Montaigne that the most certain sign of wisdom is cheerfulness. Somehow my current image of “smart” is able to include someone who often walks into poles or trips over their own feet, so long as they know how to smile about it. 51. What is Montaigne’s main point about wisdom? A. It relies on rich academic knowledge. B. It demands a high level of intelligence. C. It is gained through deep self-reflection. D. It comes from learning others’ wisdom. 52. What does “Reflecting well” primarily involve? A. Discovering root elements. B. Identifying obvious reasons. C. Recalling emotional states. D. Reproducing pleasant conditions. 53. Why does the author mention the Vondelpark experience? A. To explain how to reproduce a holiday. B. To prove the importance of travelling. C. To advise people to get close to nature. D. To show the essence of true reflection. 54. What else is important for true wisdom? A. Avoiding all forms of deprivation. B. Mastering academic knowledge. C. Seeking immediate satisfaction. D. Practicing strong self-control. 55. What is a vital quality of a smart person according to the author? A. Reading complicated books in public. B. Being optimistic about awkward moments. C. Avoiding making silly mistakes carefully. D. Showing off their rich knowledge. 第Ⅱ卷 第三部分：写作 第一节：阅读表达（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分） In the early 2010s, I was sent to live in rural Florida. One day, I received a bowl full of wild turkey eggs from a tractor driver. I had to act fast, buying an incubator (孵化器) at short notice and turning the eggs twice a day, as a turkey hen would I would regularly “talk” to them, recreating the sounds a wild turkey would make on its nest, in order to get the eggs accustomed to my voice. A week or so into the experiment, I started to hear responses from them and the first tiny beak (喙) broke through. Soon, I had a new family of 16 wild turkeys. I built a large pen (围栏) to protect these lovely birds, complete with upright branches for them to rest on; at a week and a half old, they could already fly. During the day we explored the surrounding countryside. I quickly became familiar with each bird’s personality: Little Friend, who always wanted to be by my side; Sweet Pea, who enjoyed being held and softly touched; Rosita, who was fascinated by squirrels. While living with the turkeys, I discovered their communication was far subtler than I’d realised. For example, we encountered many snakes as we explored and I was soon able to discern the different sounds they made. I also identified various sounds of snakes. After six months, I had a good ear for different sounds, though occasionally I’d miscall and get a very different reaction from the one I’d expected. The project lasted two years. The turkeys grew fast, but my separation from them began when they started roosting in trees outside their pen, where I could not follow. I felt a sense of relief at having kept them alive long enough to become independent. In the end, I reached the conclusion that turkeys were clever birds. 56. What did the author do with wild turkey eggs after receiving them? (no more than 10 words) 57. What was the author’s relationship with the turkeys? (no more than 8 words) 58. What does the underlined word “discern” probably mean in Para. 3? (1 word) 59. Why did the author feel a sense of relief? (no more than 15 words) 60. What quality of the author do you admire most in the story? Please give your reason.
