Fortunately, many hotels now use technology to speed up the process. Here are four that help travelers save time. 1. Yotel New York: Robot Assistants This hotel offers 24-hour kiosks similar to airport check--in machines. Guests follow simple steps to get their room key. The standout feature is the robotic luggage helper — you enter your bag details, and a robotic arm stores them automatically. Perfect for business travelers heading straight to meetings. 2.

For checkout, staff meet you in the lobby with an iPad and immediately email your receipt. 4. Radisson LaCrosse: Scan and Go At selected hotels, Radisson offers a faster system. Guests register through a mobile app in advance and receive a barcode. Scanning it at a kiosk immediately provides room keys — no additional steps required. Currently available in several US cities.

Roger started out as an unpaid worker in a small flower shop. He has become the owner of a florist company whose sales are well over $100,000 a year. One day when Roger was only twelve, he stopped at a local flower shop. He asked the owner if he could work for him, without pay, in order to learn the business. Roger started working every day after school and on weekends. After two years on the job, he finally asked for a small salary. The owners told him he “wasn’t good enough to be paid.” So he quit, and found a paying job at another local flower shop. He worked hard there, but after six months they laid him off because business was slow. Not discouraged, Roger decided to do it alone and started his own flower store in a basement. He started his business with only sixty-five dollars. He bought old refrigerators at garage sales and knocked the shelves out. This turned them into coolers for his fresh-cut flowers. His business grew rapidly as he built up a reputation for top quality and fine service. In 1977, Roger bought out the flower store where he had worked without pay for over two years. The people who said he “wasn’t good enough” were astonished to find that they were being taken over by a teenager. He had plans to renovate (整修) the whole store. One of the reasons the owners sold out to Roger was that the store wasn’t doing well. But after Roger took over ownership and redid the store, business started booming. In fact, business was so good that after one year, he celebrated by buying out the other store where he had worked. Roger then combined both stores and moved to a location in the center of his town. The new store has 2,000 square feet and seven employees. And he did it all before he reached the age of twenty. 41. The author is most eager to show that people who want to get ahead in business should ________. A. work without pay B. own a flower shop C. work hard and be persistent D. work as teenagers 42. Which of the following does NOT describe Roger Comer’s history in business? A. He worked for two years without pay. B. He needed luck to be successful. C. He opened his first flower business in a basement. D. He opened a store in the middle of his town. 43. The style of the passage is mostly like a ________. A. newspaper article B. humorous story C. television play D. magazine interview 44. Which of the following statements about Roger Conner is NOT true? A. He gave customers better service than the other shops he had worked for. B. He was a very brave and tricky young man. C. He worked hard without pay in a flower shop in order to get to know the business. D. He made decisions on the location of his shop by himself. 45. From what you know about Roger Conner, you can conclude that a “Horatio Alger hero” is the kind of person who ________. A. works hard in the flower business B. is born into a rich family C. starts out poor and becomes rich D. becomes famous C Last night’s meteor (流星) shower left many people in the community dissatisfied and demanding answers. According to Gabe Rothschild, Emerald Valley’s mayor, people gathered in the suburbs of the city, carrying heavy telescopes, expecting to watch the brightly burning meteors passing through the sky. What they found instead was a sky so brightened by the city’s lights that it darkened the light of the meteors passing overhead. “My family was so frustrated,” admitted town resident Duane Cosby, “We wanted to make this an unforgettable family outing, but it turned out to be a huge disappointment.” Astronomers — scientists who study stars and planets — have been complaining about this problem for decades. They say that light pollution prevents them from seeing objects in the sky that they could see quite easily in the past. They call on people and the government to take measures to fight against it. There is yet a population besides professional and amateur star observers that suffers even more from light pollution. This population consists of birds, bats, frogs, snakes, etc. For example, outdoor lighting severely affects migrating (迁徙的) birds. According to the International Dark-Sky Association, “100 million birds a year throughout North America die in crashes with lighted buildings and towers.” Countless more animal casualties (伤亡) result from the use of artificial lighting. Clearly, people enjoy the benefits of lighting their evenings. But some scientists think it can be harmful for humans, too. They worry that exposure to light while sleeping can increase a person’s chances of getting cancer. Emerald Valley is only one community that is becoming aware of the negative effects of light pollution. For years, Flagstaff, Arizona, has enforced lighting regulations in its city in order to assist astronomers at the Lowell Observatory. Similar efforts have been made worldwide, and a movement is underway to remind us to turn off lights when we are not using them, so that other creatures can share the night. 46. It happened last night that _____. A. the city’s lights affected the meteor watching B. the meteors flew past before being noticed C. the city light show attracted many people D. the meteor watching ended up a social outing 47. What do the astronomers complain about? A. Meteor showers occur less often than before. B. Their observation equipment is in poor repair. C. Light pollution has remained unsolved for years. D. Their eyesight is failing due to artificial lighting. 48. What is the author concerned about according to Paragraph 4? A. Birds may take other migration paths. B. Animals’ living habits may change suddenly C. Varieties of animals will become sharply reduced D. Animals’ survival is threatened by outdoor lighting. 49. Lighting regulations in Flagstaff, Arizona are put into effect to _____. A. lessen the chance of getting cancer B. create an ideal observation condition C. ensure citizens a good sleep at night D. enable all creatures to live in harmony 50. What message does the author most want to give us? A. Saving wildlife is saving ourselves. B. Great efforts should be made to save energy. C. Human activities should be environmentally friendly. D. New equipment should be introduced for space study.. D People aren’t walking any more — if they can figure out a way to avoid it. I felt superior about this matter until the other day I took my car to mail a small parcel. The journey is a matter of 281 steps. But I used the car. And I wasn’t in ay hurry, either, I had merely become one more victim of a national sickness: motorosis. It is an illness to which I had thought myself immune(), for I was bred in the tradition of going to places on my own two legs. At that time, we regarded 25 miles as good day’s walk and the ability to cover such a distance in ten hours as sign of strength and skill. It did not occur to us that walking was a hardship. And the effect was lasting. When I was 45 years old I raced — and beat — a teenage football player the 168 steps up the Stature of Liberty. Such enterprises today are regarded by many middle-aged persons as bad for the heart. But a well-known British physician, Sir Adolphe Abrhams, pointed out recently that hearts and bodies need proper...is more likely to have illnesses than one who exercises regularly. And wlaking is an ideal form of exercise — the most familiar and natural of all. It was Henry Thoreau who showed mankind the richness of going on foot. The man walking can learn the trees, flower, insects, birds and animals, the significance of seasons, the very feel of himself as a living creature in a living world, He cannot learn in a car. The car is a convenient means of transport, but we have made it our way of life. Many people don’t dare to approach Nature any more; to them the world they were born to enjoy is all threat. To them security is a steel river thundering on a concrete road. And much of their thinking takes place while waiting for the traffic light to turn green. I say that the green of forests is the mind’s best light. And none but the man on foot can evaluate what is basic and everlasting. 51. What is the national sickness? A. Walking too much B. Traveling too much C. Driving cars too much D. Climbing stairs too much. 52. What was life like when the author was young? A. People usually went around on foot. B. people often walked 25 miles a day C. People used to climb the Statue of Liberty. D. people considered a ten-hour walk as a hardship. 53. The author mentions Henry Thoreau to prove that__________. A. middle-aged people like getting back to nature B. walking in nature helps enrich one’s mind C. people need regular exercise to keep fit D. going on foot prevents heart disease 54. What is compared to “a steel river” in Paragraph 6? A. A queue of cars. B. A ray of traffic light. C. A flash of lightning. D. A stream of people. 55. What is the author’s intention of writing this passage? A. To tell people to reflect more non life. B. To recommend people to give up driving. C. To advise people to do outdoor activities. D. To encourage people to return to walking. Ⅱ卷 非选择题(共35分) 第三部分：写作(共两节，满分35分) 第一节 阅读表达(共5小题;每小题2分，满分10分) 阅读表达 Just like everyone, I have experienced ups and downs in my life. I am an aerospace engineer from India, I was told by my relatives, close friends and others that it was hard for a non-IT student to pursue a master's degree in IT and graduate from a US university. I had never taken courses related to computers or programming. I was never interested in being a programmer, but things changed. I became so fascinated with the convenience IT has brought to our life that I made up my mind in chasing a master's degree in IT. At first, I came across too many difficulties and setbacks. Coming from a middle-class family, the huge cost per credit was a big issue. My English accent was terrible. Most importantly, the course seemed impossible at first. Although I felt so discouraged and frustrated, I never thought of giving up. Then I decided to choose my university because it promised its students to help them learn practically. During my first month, it was difficult to understand the Americans' accent and finish my assignments. But I never gave in. I walked two miles to the university every day so that I could use my travel money to buy a meal. I started looking for jobs and I got an offer to work as a student assistant, which meant lifting benches and chairs every day. I took all these challenges as my chances, and I believed that hard work was my strength. Right now I am graduating with a GPA of 3.96/4 and a job offer from a multinational company that has asked me to start right after graduation. When you have a dream to realize, there is nothing that can stop you. All you need is the diligence and persistence. Hard work always pays off. Having a determined will is also necessary. 56. Why did the author's family and friends say that it was hard for him to pursue a master's degree in IT? (no more than 8 words) 57. What does the underlined part in paragraph 2 mean?

Roger started out as an unpaid worker in a small flower shop. He has become the owner of a florist company whose sales are well over $100,000 a year. One day when Roger was only twelve, he stopped at a local flower shop. He asked the owner if he could work for him, without pay, in order to learn the business. Roger started working every day after school and on weekends. After two years on the job, he finally asked for a small salary. The owners told him he “wasn’t good enough to be paid.” So he quit, and found a paying job at another local flower shop. He worked hard there, but after six months they laid him off because business was slow. Not discouraged, Roger decided to do it alone and started his own flower store in a basement. He started his business with only sixty-five dollars. He bought old refrigerators at garage sales and knocked the shelves out. This turned them into coolers for his fresh-cut flowers. His business grew rapidly as he built up a reputation for top quality and fine service. In 1977, Roger bought out the flower store where he had worked without pay for over two years. The people who said he “wasn’t good enough” were astonished to find that they were being taken over by a teenager. He had plans to renovate (整修) the whole store. One of the reasons the owners sold out to Roger was that the store wasn’t doing well. But after Roger took over ownership and redid the store, business started booming. In fact, business was so good that after one year, he celebrated by buying out the other store where he had worked. Roger then combined both stores and moved to a location in the center of his town. The new store has 2,000 square feet and seven employees. And he did it all before he reached the age of twenty. 41. The author is most eager to show that people who want to get ahead in business should ________. A. work without pay B. own a flower shop C. work hard and be persistent D. work as teenagers 42. Which of the following does NOT describe Roger Comer’s history in business? A. He worked for two years without pay. B. He needed luck to be successful. C. He opened his first flower business in a basement. D. He opened a store in the middle of his town. 43. The style of the passage is mostly like a ________. A. newspaper article B. humorous story C. television play D. magazine interview 44. Which of the following statements about Roger Conner is NOT true? A. He gave customers better service than the other shops he had worked for. B. He was a very brave and tricky young man. C. He worked hard without pay in a flower shop in order to get to know the business. D. He made decisions on the location of his shop by himself. 45. From what you know about Roger Conner, you can conclude that a “Horatio Alger hero” is the kind of person who ________. A. works hard in the flower business B. is born into a rich family C. starts out poor and becomes rich D. becomes famous 【答案】41. C 42. B 43. A 44. B 45. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文，主要介绍了RogerConner的成功之路，并告诉我们成功靠的是努力和刻苦。 【41题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段的“He worked hard there, but after six months they laid him off because business was slow. Not discouraged, Roger decided to do it alone and started his own flower store in a basement.(他在那里工作很努力，但6个月后，因为生意清淡，他被解雇了。罗杰没有气馁，他决定独自创业，在地下室开了自己的花店。)”可知，遇见很多困难，他都没有放弃，而是一直向前，因此作者最想告诉大家的是，想在商业上取得成功的人应该努力工作，坚持不懈，故选C。 【42题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段的“He asked the owner if he could work for him, without pay, in order to learn the business. Roger started working every day after school and on weekends. After two years on the job, he finally asked for a small salary.(为了学习业务，他问老板是否可以无偿为他工作。罗杰开始每天放学后和周末工作。工作两年后，他终于要求一份微薄的薪水。)”可知有2年是免费工作；“Not discouraged, Roger decided to do it alone and started his own flower store in a basement.(罗杰没有气馁，他决定独自创业，在地下室开了自己的花店。)”可知，他在地下室开了自己的第一家花店和倒数第二段的“Roger then combined both stores and moved to a location in the center of his town.(然后罗杰把这两家店合并，搬到了镇中心的一个地方。)”可知，他在市中心开了一家商店。由此可知，他的创业经历里，没有运气的成分，只有努力和刻苦再加上思考，故选B。 【43题详解】 推理判断题。通读全文，尤其是第一段的“Roger Conner is a modern-day Horatio Alger hero. Roger started out as an unpaid worker in a small flower shop. He has become the owner of a florist company whose sales are well over $100,000 a year.(Roger Conner是当代的Horatio Alger英雄。罗杰一开始在一家小花店做无薪工人。他已经成为一家花店公司的老板，每年的销售额超过10万美元。)”可知，本文介绍了Roger Conner的成功之路，并告诉我们成功靠的是努力和刻苦，目的是鼓励人们要脚踏实地工作，才能获得成功，该类讲述激励故事的文章最有可能是从报纸上摘录下来的，故选A。 【44题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章倒数第二段“One of the reasons the owners sold out to Roger was that the store wasn’t doing well. But after Roger took over ownership and redid the store, business started booming. In fact, business was so good that after one year, he celebrated by buying out the other store where he had worked.(老板们把公司卖给罗杰的原因之一是商店经营得不好。但罗杰接手并重新装修了这家店后，生意开始红火起来。事实上，生意非常好，一年后，他买下了他曾经工作过的另一家店，以示庆祝。)”可知，在生意不好的时候把店买下来，说明他很勇敢，同时他努力地经营并使得生意很好，说明他是一个聪明的人，而不是一个狡猾的年轻人，因此B选项是不正确的，故选B。 【45题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章第一段“Roger Conner is a modern-day Horatio Alger hero. Roger started out as an unpaid worker in a small flower shop. He has become the owner of a florist company whose sales are well over $100,000 a year.(Roger Conner是当代的Horatio Alger英雄。Roger一开始在一家小花店做无薪工人。他已经成为一家花店公司的老板，每年的销售额超过10万美元。)”可知，Horatio Alger hero就是像Roger这种刚开始很穷，后来变得富有的人，故选C。 C Last night’s meteor (流星) shower left many people in the community dissatisfied and demanding answers. According to Gabe Rothschild, Emerald Valley’s mayor, people gathered in the suburbs of the city, carrying heavy telescopes, expecting to watch the brightly burning meteors passing through the sky. What they found instead was a sky so brightened by the city’s lights that it darkened the light of the meteors passing overhead. “My family was so frustrated,” admitted town resident Duane Cosby, “We wanted to make this an unforgettable family outing, but it turned out to be a huge disappointment.” Astronomers — scientists who study stars and planets — have been complaining about this problem for decades. They say that light pollution prevents them from seeing objects in the sky that they could see quite easily in the past. They call on people and the government to take measures to fight against it. There is yet a population besides professional and amateur star observers that suffers even more from light pollution. This population consists of birds, bats, frogs, snakes, etc. For example, outdoor lighting severely affects migrating (迁徙的) birds. According to the International Dark-Sky Association, “100 million birds a year throughout North America die in crashes with lighted buildings and towers.” Countless more animal casualties (伤亡) result from the use of artificial lighting. Clearly, people enjoy the benefits of lighting their evenings. But some scientists think it can be harmful for humans, too. They worry that exposure to light while sleeping can increase a person’s chances of getting cancer. Emerald Valley is only one community that is becoming aware of the negative effects of light pollution. For years, Flagstaff, Arizona, has enforced lighting regulations in its city in order to assist astronomers at the Lowell Observatory. Similar efforts have been made worldwide, and a movement is underway to remind us to turn off lights when we are not using them, so that other creatures can share the night. 46. It happened last night that _____. A. the city’s lights affected the meteor watching B. the meteors flew past before being noticed C. the city light show attracted many people D. the meteor watching ended up a social outing 47. What do the astronomers complain about? A. Meteor showers occur less often than before. B. Their observation equipment is in poor repair. C. Light pollution has remained unsolved for years. D. Their eyesight is failing due to artificial lighting. 48. What is the author concerned about according to Paragraph 4? A. Birds may take other migration paths. B. Animals’ living habits may change suddenly C. Varieties of animals will become sharply reduced D. Animals’ survival is threatened by outdoor lighting. 49. Lighting regulations in Flagstaff, Arizona are put into effect to _____. A. lessen the chance of getting cancer B. create an ideal observation condition C. ensure citizens a good sleep at night D. enable all creatures to live in harmony 50. What message does the author most want to give us? A. Saving wildlife is saving ourselves. B. Great efforts should be made to save energy. C. Human activities should be environmentally friendly. D. New equipment should be introduced for space study.. 【答案】46. A 47. C 48. D 49. B 50. C 【解析】 【分析】本文是一篇议论文。许多人想在晚上看流星雨，结果由于光线太亮，影响了他们的观看效果。文章由这个事例引发出要讨论的话题——人们对光污染的思考。 【46题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段的最后一句话“What they found instead was a sky so brightened by the city’s lights that it darkened the light of the meteors passing overhead.(然而，他们却发现，城市的灯光照亮了天空，使划过头顶的流星的光芒都变暗了)”可知，昨晚城市的灯光影响了流星雨的观赏。故选A。 【47题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中的“Astronomers — scientists who study stars and planets — have been complaining about this problem for decades. They say that light pollution prevents them from seeing objects in the sky that they could see quite easily in the past.(天文学家——研究恒星和行星的科学家——几十年来一直在抱怨这个问题。他们说，光污染使他们看不见天空中过去很容易看到的物体)”可知，天文学家们抱怨光污染多年来一直没有得到解决。故选C。 【48题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段中的“There is yet a population besides professional and amateur star observers that suffers even more from light pollution. This population consists of birds, bats, frogs, snakes, etc.(除了专业和业余的恒星观测者外，还有些群体受到光污染的影响更大。这个种群由鸟类、蝙蝠、青蛙、蛇等组成)”可推知，根据第四段，作者所关心的是动物的生存受到户外照明的威胁。故选D。 【49题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段中的“Emerald Valley is only one community that is becoming aware of the negative effects of light pollution. For years, Flagstaff, Arizona, has enforced lighting regulations in its city in order to assist astronomers at the Lowell Observatory.(翡翠谷是唯一一个意识到光污染负面影响的社区。多年来，亚利桑那州的弗拉格斯塔夫市为了帮助洛厄尔天文台的天文学家，已经在该市实施了照明法规)”可推知，亚利桑那州弗拉格斯塔夫实施的照明规定创造了一个理想的观测条件。故选B。 【50题详解】 推理判断题。文中作者反复强调光污染问题对人类的一些活动和动物的影响，这显然是强调环境问题。尤其根据最后一段中的“Similar efforts have been made worldwide, and a movement is underway to remind us to turn off lights when we are not using them, so that other creatures can share the night.(世界各地都做出了类似的努力，并且正在开展一项运动，提醒我们在不用灯的时候关灯，这样其他生物就可以共享夜晚)”可知，作者最想给我们的信息是人类活动应该是环保的。故选C。 D People aren’t walking any more — if they can figure out a way to avoid it. I felt superior about this matter until the other day I took my car to mail a small parcel. The journey is a matter of 281 steps. But I used the car. And I wasn’t in ay hurry, either, I had merely become one more victim of a national sickness: motorosis. It is an illness to which I had thought myself immune(), for I was bred in the tradition of going to places on my own two legs. At that time, we regarded 25 miles as good day’s walk and the ability to cover such a distance in ten hours as sign of strength and skill. It did not occur to us that walking was a hardship. And the effect was lasting. When I was 45 years old I raced — and beat — a teenage football player the 168 steps up the Stature of Liberty. Such enterprises today are regarded by many middle-aged persons as bad for the heart. But a well-known British physician, Sir Adolphe Abrhams, pointed out recently that hearts and bodies need proper...is more likely to have illnesses than one who exercises regularly. And wlaking is an ideal form of exercise — the most familiar and natural of all. It was Henry Thoreau who showed mankind the richness of going on foot. The man walking can learn the trees, flower, insects, birds and animals, the significance of seasons, the very feel of himself as a living creature in a living world, He cannot learn in a car. The car is a convenient means of transport, but we have made it our way of life. Many people don’t dare to approach Nature any more; to them the world they were born to enjoy is all threat. To them security is a steel river thundering on a concrete road. And much of their thinking takes place while waiting for the traffic light to turn green. I say that the green of forests is the mind’s best light. And none but the man on foot can evaluate what is basic and everlasting. 51. What is the national sickness? A. Walking too much B. Traveling too much C. Driving cars too much D. Climbing stairs too much. 52. What was life like when the author was young? A. People usually went around on foot. B. people often walked 25 miles a day C. People used to climb the Statue of Liberty. D. people considered a ten-hour walk as a hardship. 53. The author mentions Henry Thoreau to prove that__________. A. middle-aged people like getting back to nature B. walking in nature helps enrich one’s mind C. people need regular exercise to keep fit D. going on foot prevents heart disease 54. What is compared to “a steel river” in Paragraph 6? A. A queue of cars. B. A ray of traffic light. C. A flash of lightning. D. A stream of people. 55. What is the author’s intention of writing this passage? A. To tell people to reflect more non life. B. To recommend people to give up driving. C. To advise people to do outdoor activities. D. To encourage people to return to walking. 【答案】51. C 52. A 53. B 54. A 55.

I am an aerospace engineer from India, I was told by my relatives, close friends and others that it was hard for a non-IT student to pursue a master's degree in IT and graduate from a US university. I had never taken courses related to computers or programming. I was never interested in being a programmer, but things changed. I became so fascinated with the convenience IT has brought to our life that I made up my mind in chasing a master's degree in IT. At first, I came across too many difficulties and setbacks. Coming from a middle-class family, the huge cost per credit was a big issue. My English accent was terrible. Most importantly, the course seemed impossible at first. Although I felt so discouraged and frustrated, I never thought of giving up. Then I decided to choose my university because it promised its students to help them learn practically. During my first month, it was difficult to understand the Americans' accent and finish my assignments. But I never gave in. I walked two miles to the university every day so that I could use my travel money to buy a meal. I started looking for jobs and I got an offer to work as a student assistant, which meant lifting benches and chairs every day. I took all these challenges as my chances, and I believed that hard work was my strength. Right now I am graduating with a GPA of 3.96/4 and a job offer from a multinational company that has asked me to start right after graduation. When you have a dream to realize, there is nothing that can stop you. All you need is the diligence and persistence. Hard work always pays off. Having a determined will is also necessary. 56.
