该项涂黑。
A
Teenagers
should
mind
their
manners
when
traveling
on
a
bus
or
train.
They
will
be
told
to
“
stand up for their elders
”
on public transport
—
or may lose their right to free travel.
Officials
in
London
will
declare
plans
lately
to
make
youngsters
sign
a
“
courtesy
pledge
”
to
promise to behave in a respectful manner when travelling in the capital. The three-point pledge states
that they will give up their seats to the elderly, pregnant and disabled; keep from using offensive or
threatening language; and be courteous and polite to fellow passengers and staff.
The teenagers who refuse, or are caught behaving in a loutish manner, will have their free travel
passes removed. The plan will initially affect the 400,000 11-to-15-year-olds in London who qualify
for free travel cards.
During an interview, a Conservative insider said:
“
The plan corresponds perfectly with the push
to create a Big Society. It is about changing culture and expectations around behavior on buses and
trains for everyone.
”
Mr.
Johnson
said
he
was
determined
to
deal
with
the
anti-social
behavior
of
a
“
minority
of
youngsters
”
on public transport.
“When
I was a boy, I was taught to stand up for those less able to,
he said,
“
Youngsters enjoy the privilege of free travel, which is paid for by Londoners, but they have
to
understand
that
with
that
privilege
comes
responsibility.
Anyone
who
abuses
this
privilege
will
have it taken away, and will have to earn that right back.
Teenagers
found
guilty
of
a
serious
violation
(
违背
)
of
the
new
behavior
rules
will
lose
their
travel passes, and will have to carry out unpaid community work to earn them back.
Mr.
Johnson
is
also
introducing
a
“
two
strikes
and
you're
out
”
policy
to
deal
with
repeated
offenders, under which those committing a second serious violation of the rules will lose their free
travel rights permanently
21. Which is NOT included in the
“
courtesy pledge
”
?
A. To offer their seats to those in need.
B. To stop using aggressive language on public transport.
C. To show courtesy and politeness to people on board.
D. To avoid bothering others by talking too much.
22. What
’
s the purpose of carrying out such a plan?
A. To prevent those rule- violators having their free travel rights.
B. To help create a harmonious atmosphere on public transport.
C. To deal with the anti-social behaviors of most youngsters.
D. To encourage teenagers to take part in unpaid community work.
23. Which is the most severe punishment to rule-violators?
A. They will be forbidden to take public transport.
B. They will have to do unpaid community work.
C. They will lose free travel rights forever.
D. They can
’
t take free transport for months.
B
When you think of children’s literature, endless picnics with lots of
strawberry jam might pop
into
your
mind.
But
British
author
Roald
Dahl
went
down
a
different
path,
satisfying
children’s
curiosity for the dark, violent and greedy.
To date, his books are said to have sold more than 250 million copies worldwide. In 2013, he
beat J.K. Rowling to be named the best children’s author of all time. And movie adaptations of his
works continue to hit the big screen, including US director Steven Spielberg’s take on The BFG.
Dahl’s books have been successful partly because he wrote
from the viewpoint of children and
allowed them to lead the stories, act on their own and even act against the wishes of adults.
And
his
dark
descriptions
appeal
to
young
readers.
For
example,
Charlie
and
the
Chocolate
Factory, one of Dahl’s famous stori
es, is a black comedy with the naughty children having terrible
revenge taken on them. In The BFG, there is a witching hour, which he wrote is “a special moment in
the middle of the night when every child and every grown-up was in a deep sleep, and all the dark
things came out from hiding and had the world all to themselves”.
The darkness came from Dahl’s own life. He lost his father young. Then his mother sent him
away to a boarding school where he was badly beaten. He was then a naughty child and sometimes
even a troublemaker. Dahl would later describe his school years as
“days of horrors” that were filled
with “rules … and still more rules … to be obeyed”. His own experience inspired some of his dark
fiction.
And he was a fighter pilot during World War
II. Very few people had quite that fierceness. He’s
one of the few children’s authors who’s actually killed people. That is going to have an effect on how
you see people and the world.
24. J.K. Rowling and Steven Spielberg are mentioned in the text to stress____________
A. main features of
Dahl’s books.
B. achievements that Dahl made.
C. Dahl’s
influence on the film industry.
D. differences between Dahl and them.
25
. Dahl’s books appeal to young readers partly because ______.
A. they contain a lot of dark humor and violence
B. they were written from the perspective of children
C. they tell stories of Dahl’s own experiences
D. they teach children how to act on their own
26. Which of the followings inspired some of his dark stories?
A. His father
’
s death during the World War II.
B. His pride in his experience as a fighter pilot.
C. The cruel treatment he received from his parents.
D. The unhappy childhood he spent in the boarding school.
C
One great irony about our collective obsession (
痴迷
) with creativity is that we tend to frame it
in
uncreative
ways.
That
is to
say,
most
of
us
marry
creativity
to
our
concept
of
self:
Either
we
’
re
“
creative
”
or
we
aren
’
t,
without
much
of
a
middle
ground.
“
I
’
m
just
not
a
creative
person!
”
a
frustrated
student
might
say
in
art
class,
while
another
might
blame
her
talent
at
painting
for
her
difficulties in math, giving a comment such as,
“
I
’
m very right- brained.
”
Dr.
Pillay,
a
tech
entrepreneur
(
企业家
)
and
an
assistant
professor
at
Harvard
University,
has
been challenging these ideas. He believes that the key to unlocking your creative potential is to ignore
the
traditional
advice
that
urges
you
to
“
believe
in
yourself.
”
In
fact,
you
should
do
the
opposite:
Believe you are someone else.
Dr. Pillay points to a 2016 study showing how can stereotypes(
刻板印象
) affect one
’
s behavior.
The authors, educational psychologists Denis Dumas and Kevin Dunbar, divided their college student
subjects into three groups, instructing the members of one to think of themselves as
“
romantic poets
”
and the members of another to imagine they were
“
serious librarians
”
(the third group was the control).
The researchers then presented all the participants with ten ordinary objects, including a fork, a carrot,
and a pair of pants, and asked them to come up with as many different uses as possible for each one.
Those
who
were
asked
to
imagine
themselves
as
romantic
poets
came
up
with
the
widest
range
of
ideas, whereas those in the serious-librarian group had the fewest. Meanwhile, the researchers found
only small differences in students
’
creativity levels across academic majors.
These
results
suggest
that
creativity
is
not
a
fixed
individual
characteristic
but
a
malleable
product of context and perspective, as long as he or she feels like a creative person.
Dr. Pillay argues that, besides identifying yourself as creative, taking the bold, creative step of
imagining you are somebody else is even more powerful.
27. According to the passage, who is more likely to unlock his creative potential?
A. A physics major who likes to imagine himself as a poet.
B. An art major who always believes in himself.
C. A math major who has excellent academic performance.
D. A history major who works as a librarian on weekends.
28. What does the study conducted by Denis Dumas and Kevin Dunbar focus on?
A. The creativity of the college students
B. The stereotypes of the college students.
C. The influence of stereotypes on one
’
s behavior.
D. The effect of creativity on one
’
s behaviour.
29. The underlined word in the 4
th
paragraph probably means________?
A. stable
B. controllable
C. predictable
D. changeable
30. Which of the followings can be the best title for this passage?
A. The Impact of Stereotypes
B. Pretend to Be Creative
C. Ways to Increase Creativity
D. To Be a Creative Person

Can just one person change the community? You bet! In a community every person counts, and
doing something is not difficult. Find out your own talents and interests. Then find a need or an issue
you really care about.
31
. Here are just a few ways to help change your community.
Clean up the community
Neighbourhood
cleanups
are
often
sponsored
by
local
business
or
schools.
But
if
your
community
doesn
’
t
have
a
cleanup
program,
get
together
with
friends
to
organize
one.
32
.
Living in a tidy neighbourhood will be its own reward.
33
Do you know anyone who is housebound? Almost all neighborhoods have a few people who are
limited
to
their
homes.
These
people
are
often
elderly
and
unable
to
leave
their
homes
to
perform
simple tasks. But they belong to the community, too! By letting them
“
borrow
”
your legs and eyes,
you can make them feel included. Y
ou can do the daily routine for them like shopping or paying bills.
34
.
And that
’
s what communities are for!
Round up some readers
Reading clubs are popular all over Europe and North America. Members might read at home to
prepare for discussion, or they might read aloud to each other and talk about what they just read.
35
. The
clubs are a good way to welcome newcomers to the community, too. Newcomers can find new friends
with similar interests. If your neighborhood doesn
’
t yet have a club, find a few reading enthusiasts and
get the ball rolling!
A. Do the daily routine.
B. Include the isolated
（孤立的）
.
C. Once you see what you can accomplish, you
’
ll want to keep going.
D. Governments try to help these people in need but their money is tight.
E. Either way can spark lively discussion and encourage people to take action.
F. You could pick up trash in a larger area twice a year or a smaller area every few months.
G. Governments provide some of the services these people need, but can
’
t give them friendship.

In November, I drove the eight-year-olds in my religion class to the supermarket. We planned to

. “She’s
wishing it was a bag of flour (
面粉
)
,” I thought.
Back to the car, we could see the woman through the kitchen window walking
49
all foods,
straight to the mums. She put her face in the flowers. When she raised her head, there was a
50
on her lips. She was

before our eyes.
