It all started when I saw a little advertisement in a magazine for teens that
read,
I have always dreamt of seeing other parts of the world, meeting people of
different cultures, and communicating in a language that is different from my native
one. It was the influence of my dad that made me decide on learning English. He told
encourages Lily to make good use of her talents for the school play,
and
eventually, she makes it.

me that if I learned how to speak English, I would have friends all around the world.
So I decided to study the language.
Learning English was like finding gold! Just by learning the language I could
read books written in English, make friends with people from Brazil, Switzerland,
Italy, USA, Canada, Singapore, Japan, Spain and many more countries. I started
attending meetings abroad. I was getting job offers just because I could speak English.
British English has a long history, but I wanted to speak English like an American
not an Englishman. Speaking with an American accent is more interesting. One of my
teachers told me that the best way to improve my English was to live in a country
where English was spoken. After living in the USA, I came to understand that the best
way to understand its cultures and its people was by living there for a period of
time.
I decided to go the United States to study and to learn how to do business with
Americans. I chose California because to me California accent was easy to understand
and the way of life was casual;the weather in California was warm and I would be next
to the Pacific Ocean. The cost of living here is high, but the spirit in California
is international. It is relaxing and peaceful. It is full of action.
24. What made the author choose to learn English?
A. The little advertisement.
C. His father's words.
25. What is Paragraph 3 mainly about?
A. The advantages of learning English. B. The English language's influences.

We have heard some interesting ways that 5G wireless technology might change our
lives in the, future.
5G short for the 5th generation mobile communication technology, promises
Internet speeds between 50 to 100 times faster than current 4G systems. While 5G is
set to be used in some limited areas of America this year, much of the world is not
expected to receive widely available service until 2023.
One project in Britain, however, is already testing this superfast technology
on an unlikely group of Internet users-cows. The project was developed by American
technology company Cisco Systems. It also receives money from the British government
Cisco says the program seeks to explore the future of 5G connectivity in rural areas
around the world.
Testing areas were set up at farms in. three rural areas of England. The cows
are equipped with 5G-connected devices(装置)that link up to a robotic milking system,
B. The magazine.
D. Skills for languages.

which uses sensors and machine learning to fully automate the process. System
designers say technology takes over after a cow feels ready to be milked and walks
toward an automatic gate. The device is designed to recognize each individual cow.
It then positions equipment to the right body position for milking. During the process,
machines release food for the cow as a reward.
Other 5G technology tools include automated brushes that turn on when the cow
rubs up against them. Sensors also control the amount of light to the cows' living
areas depending on the weather. And, an automatic feeding system makes sure the animals
always get enough to eat.
Duncan Forbes, head of the project, told Reuters that the project shows the farm's
cow operations can be greatly improved with 5G technology and that the experiment
provides strong evidence that 5G technology can be widely used in the future, not
just on farms in Britain, but in rural communities across the world.
28. What is the purpose of Cisco Systems' program?
A. To win financial support from British government.
B. To test the effects of 5G technology on animals.
C. To promote its technological development in Britain.
D. To expand the future use of 5G in rural communities.
29. What does the underlined word “It” in Paragraph 3 refer to?
A. The project. B. The company. C. The technology. D. The group.
30. What can we learn about 5G according to the text?
A. It is no worse than 4G in terms of speed.
B. It is already widely available in the world.
C. It enables cows to control their own milking.
D. It is based on sensors and machine learning.
31. In which section of a newspaper may this text appear?
A. Entertainment. B. Lifestyle. C. Education. D. Technology.

D
Does the amount of cash in a lost wallet influence how likely a person is to return
it? Classical economic theories suggest that the greater the appeal, the less likely
we are to be honest-but a new study turns the idea on its head, finding altruism(利
他主义)，and a powerful hate for viewing oneself as a outweigh the financial
attraction.
A team of researchers conducted a huge experiment concerning 355 cities in 40
countries. More than 17,000 identical wallets were dropped off at public places, each
containing a grocery list, a key, and three business cards in the local language using
made-up names and an email address. Some had no money while others contained the
equivalent(等值)of $$13.45.
According to the research, people on average returned 40% of wallets with no money
in them but 51 % with money. It also shows extreme differences between countries.
But although rates of people's honesty varied greatly from country to country, one
thing remained remarkably constant: wallets with money, as opposed to no money, raised
reporting rates.

In the US, the UK and Poland, they repeated the experiment with even more money:
$$94.15, which increased reporting rates by an average of 11 % compared to the smaller
amount. They also found that having a key expanded reporting rates by 9.2%.
The findings, which run counter to a fundamental principle of classical economics,
suggest honesty, altruism and self-image can sometimes be more influential than
economic self-interest.
A purely economic approach to behavior suggests people would keep the wallets
with the larger amounts of money due to the increased financial reward, but economics
often doesn't account for a person's sense of honesty or self- image, according to
behavioral scientists. Altruism also influenced the findings, the researchers say.
Since the key is valuable to the owner but not the finder, this pointed toward an
altruism concern in addition to the cost of negatively updating one's self image.
32. What does the author intend to do in Paragraph 2?
A. Introduce a new topic for discussion.
B. Add some background information.
C. Describe a widely conducted experiment.
D. Provide the research results for the readers.
33. What's the average reporting rate of a wallet with $$94.15 inside?
A. 11%. B. 20.2%. C. 51%. D. 62%.
does the underlined phrase
A. Go against. B. Account for. C. Agree with. D. Focus on.
35. What's the main idea of the text?
A. Classical economic theories have already been out of date.
B. People are more likely to return a lost wallet with more cash.
C. An experiment conducted worldwide proves people's altruism.
D. Rates of people's honesty vary greatly from country to country.

第二节 (共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分)
根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余
选项。
Is our planet heating up? Are human beings to blame for climate change? 36 The
discussion on this subject has been heated, but what are scientists actually saying?
At
Reader’s Digest
, we decided to find it out. 37
Yes, it has, and even warmer. Greenland was forested between 450,000 and 800,000
years ago, so temperatures were considerably warmer then. There have also been other
times of relatively high temperatures.
So why does the concern exist?
It’s all about the speed at which temperatures are changing. 38 But in the
20th and 21st centuries, especially since 1976, temperatures have probably risen more
quickly than during any century in the past 1,000 years. Warming may bring improved
crop production and other benefits to northern countries such as Canada or Russia.
However, many species may not adapt to these conditions, and the one that is able
to may cause a problem. 39 The West Nile virus, first seen in North America nine

years ago, infected about 4,000 people in the US in 2006. The mountain pine beetle,
which is active during warmer winters, has already destroyed about 13 million hectares
of Canada’s forests, worth an estimated $$6.4 billion.
What is causing the warming?
IPCC has concluded that human activity is very likely responsible, by increasing
the concentrations of greenhouse gases and thus the greenhouse effect. 40 They
argue the human contribution is nothing.
A. Some scientists, however, still disagree.
B. Has the planet ever been this warm before?
C. Has human behavior made the plane warm?
D. Temperatures have been changing all the time.
E. In the past, temperatures moved up or down gradually.
F. Mosquitoes have been moving northwards to higher places.
G. These questions have burst into newspapers, films and popular books.

said.“Everyone has a totally different story. But the most common 50 are
loneliness, depression and anxiety. They all just have that desire to 51 with
someone. I believe my hug helps me and my 52 connect on a spiritual level.”
Jessica says the majority of her customers are 53 , but she has a surprising
number of female customers 54 .Despite many people thinking she must be 55 for

therapy can have an apparent effect on their mental health.”
