Part

Reading
Comprehension
(
40 minutes)
Section A
Directions:
In this section,
there is a passage with ten blanks. You are
required to
select one word for each
blank from a list of choices given in a word bank
following the
passage. Read the passage
through carefully before making your choices. Each
choice in
the bank is identified by a
letter. Please mark the corresponding letter for
each item on
Answer Sheet 2 with a
single line through the centre. You may not use
any of the words in
the bank more than
once.
When
someone
commits
a
criminal
act
,
we
always
hope
the
punishment
will
match
the
off
ense.
But
when
it
comes
to
one
of
the
cruelest
crimes
animal
fighting
things
26
work
out
that
way.
Dog-
fighting
victims are
27
and
killed
for
prof it
and
“ sport
,
” yet
their
criminal
abusers
of
ten
receive
a
28
sentence
for
causing
a
life
time
of
pain.
Roughly
half
of
all
federally-
convicted
animal
fighters
only
get
probation
(缓刑)
.
Some progress has been made in the
prosecution
(起诉)
of animal
fighters.
But
federal
judges
often
rely
heavily
on
the
U.
S.
Sentencing
Guidelines
when
they
29
penalties
,
and
in
the
case
of
animal
fighting
,
those
guidelines
are
outdated
and
extremely
30
The
U.S.
Sentencing
Commission,
which
31
these
sentencing
guidelines, is
revisiting
them,
proposing
to
raise
the
minimum
sentence
from
6-12 to
21-27
months.
This is a
step in the
right
32
, but
we?d like
to
see the
U.S. Sentencing
Commission make
further
changes
to
the
guidelines.
Along
with
this
effort
,
we're
working
with
animal
advocates
and
state
and
federal
lawmakers
to
33
anti-cruelty
laws
across
the
country
,
as
well
as
supporting
laws
and
policies
that
assist
overburdened
animal
34
that care for animal fighting victims.
This help is 35 important because
the
high
cost
of
caring
for
animal
victims
is
a
major
factor
that
prevents
people
from
getting
involved
in
cruelty
cases in the
first
place.
A) convenient
B) creates
C) critically
D) determine
E) direction
F) hesitate
G) inadequate
H) inspired
I) method
J) minimal
K) rarely
L) shelters
M) strengthen
N) sufferings
O) tortured
Section B
Directions:
In this section,
you are going to read a passage with ten
statements
attached to it. Each
statement contains information given in one of the
paragraphs. Identify
the paragraph from
which the information is derived. You may choose a
paragraph more
than once. Each
paragraph is marked with a letter. Answer the
questions by marking the
corresponding
letter on Answer Sheet 2.
When Work
Becomes a Game
A)
What motivates
employees to do their jobs well?
Competition with coworkers,
for
some. The
promise of rewards, for others. Pure enjoyment of
problem solving, for a
lucky few.
B)
Increasingly ,
companies
are tapping
into
these
desires
directly
through
what
has
come
to
be known as
“gasification'':
essentially ,
turning
work
into
a
game.
“Gasification is about
understandingwhat it is that makes games
engaging and what game
designers do
to
create a
great experience
in games,
and taking
those
learning?s
and applying
them
to other
contexts such
asthe
workplace
and
education
,
” explains
Kevin
Wabash ,
a
gasification
expert
who
teachesAt the Wharton
School of Business at the
University of
Pennsylvania in the United States.
C)
It might mean
monitoring employee productivity on a digital
leaderboard and off erring
prizesto
the
winners ,
or
giving
employees
digital
badges
or
stars for
completing
certain
activities. It could
also
mean
training
employees
how
to
do
their
jobs
through
video
game
platforms. Companies
from
Google
to L? Ordeal
to
IBM
to Wells
Fargo
are known
to
use
some
degree
of gasification
in
their
workplaces.
And more and more companies are
joining them.
A
recentReport suggests that the global gasification
market will grow
from $$ 1.65 billion in
2015
to $$ 11.1 billion by
2020.
