An outbreak in Washington state has sickened 23 people this month, mostly children under 10. Local health officials in Clark County, declared a public-health (31)________ on Friday. They also urged residents to track (32)________ symptoms and call ahead before heading to medical centers.
State officials announced the (33)________ of measles from. the U.$. in 2000 thanks to a widespread vaccination program. But travelers entering the country with measles, as well as
dropping vaccination rates in some states in recent years, has led to a rise in infection. Last year, there were a total of 17 outbreaks, (34)________, as three or more cases linked together, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. New York and New Jersey (35)________ for roughly half of the 2018 cases.

II. Reading Comprehension
Section A
Directions: For each blank in the following passage there are four words or phrases marked A, B, C and D. Fill in each blank with the word or phrase that best fits the context.
Keeping it in the family
You understand grandmother when she talks to you, don't you, darling? The girl nods. I met her, her Japanese mother and English father on a plane to Japan. The parents were eager to (41)________ their experience of bringing up their daughter bilingually (使用双语地) in London It isn't easy: the husband does not speak Japanese, so the child hears the language only from her mother, who has come to (42)________ that the girl will reply in English. This can be painful! Not sharing your first language with loved ones is hard. Not passing it onto your own child can be especially tough. Many immigrant parents feel a sense of (43)________
Children learn languages easily, but this doesn't mean that (44)________ exposure is enough. They must hear a language quite a bit to understand it- -and use it often to be able to speak it comfortably. This is mental work,and a child who doesn’t have an intention to speak a language will often avoid it. So languages often die when parents move abroad. In the past, governments discouraged immigrant families from keeping their languages.These days, officials tend to be (45)________: some even see a valuable resource in immigrants language abilities.Yet many factors ensure that children still lose their parents languages, or never learn them. A big one is institutional (46)________. A child's time spent with a second language is time not spent on their first. So teachers often discourage parents from speaking their languages to their children. Parents often (47)________ obey, worried about their children education. This is a(n) (48)________ for children really can master two languages or even more. Research does indeed suggest their vocabulary in each language may be somewhat smaller for a while,but other studies hint at intellectual advantages among bilinguals. They may be more skillful at complex tasks,better at maintaining attention.
Even without those side effects, (49)________,a bilingual child's connection to another culture is a good thing in itself. How to (50)________? When both parents share the native
language, the strategy is often to speak that at home,' and the national language outside. But when they have (51)________ languages. perhaps the most common approach is “one parent, one language”. Francois Grosjean, a lan guage expert from Switzerland, (52)________ the necessity. He recommends reserving occasions on which the only language that may be spoken is the one that needs (53)________. Sabine Little, a language expert at the University of Sheffield, puts the emphasis elsewhere.Making the native language yet another task (54)________ by parents can lead to rejection, she argues. She recommends letting the child form their own (55)________ I connection to the language, for languages are not just another thing to be drilled into a young mind, but a matter of the heart.

Section B
Directions:Read the following three passages. Each passage is followed by several questions or unfinished statements., For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage you have just read.-
(A)
The bus screamed to_ a stop in Nazareth. Israel. Five Australian backpackers boarded and struck up a conversation with me. They asked typical travelers questions -where was I going and why was I traveling alone? My plan was to travel with a friend of a friend, I explained, but when I called her that morning, she didn't pick up and I had no other way to reach her. My stomach was in knots, but I decided to head out anyway, thinking I might run into her if I traveled to Tiberius, where we had planned to go together.
Why don't you travel with us?" one of the backpackers offered. They were experienced adventurers who would work for a few months, save, then travel for as long as they could. Their current plan was to explore the Middle East and Europe in three months while working in London.
It seemed risky to travel with strangers, but my instinct said yes. For the next two weeks, I explored Israel with the backpackers and learned to trust my instincts in all types of new and interesting situations. When they hook a ride, I took the bus, but when they wanted to steal into
the King David Hotel's swimming pool, I led the way. The world opened up to me because I chose to travel alone. I joined complete strangers, who become close friends. Years later, one couple from the backpacking group even flew from Sydney to Phoenix to be in my wedding. The trip was such a special experience that it gave me confidence in all areas of my life. Since then, I've backpacked alone across South Africa, sky-dived from 12,000 feet in New Zealand and even moved across the U.S. with no job Lined up.
On my third day wandering in Israel with my new friends, I bumped into the woman I was supposed to meet. Though I was happy she was all right, I was grateful she hadn't picked up the phone.
56. By "My stomach was in knots" (in paragraph 1), the author most likely means that she was________.
A. sick of riding on a bumpy bus
B. nervous of meeting strangers
C. upset about the sudden change
D. sorry 'about the impractical plan
57. Which of the following best describes the backpackers the author met?
A. Courageous but disrespectful.
B. Jobless and poorly educated.
C. Warmhearted and trustworthy..
D. Homeless but lighthearted.
58. The author's sixth sense told her that ________.
A. she would get along with the backpackers
B. it might cause trouble to have a swim
C. she ought to stay away from the backpackers
D. it could add excitement to get a free ride
59. What can be inferred from the passage?
A. Most of the backpackers became the author's lifelong friends.
B. The author gathered the courage to be a full time backpack traveler.
C. The woman missed the phone call with the purpose of traveling alone.

60. Alex wants to know how to ________.
A. avoid uncertain terms in writing
B. use tenses properly in one sentence
Q Is it wrong either grammatically or in terms of style- to mix the. simple past tense with the past perfect in one sentence? To give an example, the following seems a bit heavy and awkward to me: “There had been a time when she had been happier.' I prefer: There had been a time when she was happier.” Any thoughts? -------ALEX I think the second version is the correct one -it's shorter and clearer. Rather than focusing on tenses, focus on the clean, short sentence. If something seems heavy and awkward to you, the writer----- then it probably is. Always short sentences. A I have constructed texts for a range of children's picture books all based on working profession: bus driver, postman, footballer, cleaner, teacher, policeman to list a few: I've listed about thirty professions so far. I thought of titling them as Mr Bus Driver, Mr Postman and so on. Would I be infringing (侵权) the Mr Men titles if I did or should I think of something else? ------RАЛV Q A
The Mr Men stories are based on characteristics, not on jobs -Mr Lazy, Mr Noisy, etc so they bear no relation to your projects. However, you will come under fire from gender equality supporters -every job you list could equally be done by a woman. No teacher and few parents would find work useful if it implies that all professions are open only to men. I advise you to 1ook at modem
childrens books in a library orbookshop.
C. improve grammatical skills
D. focus on clear and short sentences
61. Diana reminds Rajiv that he will be severely criticized for
A. tending to hold gender prejudice
B. breaking the law using Mr Men titlesf
C. not characterizing enough professions
D. not running a project related to education
62. Which of the following questions is not supposed to be asked if you email Diana?
A. Is there a good market for traditional poems these days?
B. Can you possibly evaluate my recently written novel enclosed?
C. Where can I get some instructive books on writing for my son?
D. How can I write an appropriate acknowledgement for my book?
C
Studies show that older people tend to remember the positive things in life rather than the negative things,while younger people remember the positive and negative equally well. The dominant psychological theory to explain this is that older people are aware of their limited time left, so they prioritize positive emotional experiences. But about a decade ago, I worked with biologist Robert Trivers on his idea that there was an evolutionary basis for older people's increased positive outlook. Our research took us in the fascinating direction of exploring how the body uses its energy.
When our ancestors needed more energy than usual, perhaps while being chased by a tiger, they had to get that energy from somewhere in the body. Could they borrow it from the brain? That organ uses 20 percent of our metabolic (新陈代谢) output, whether we are solving math problems or watching television reruns. Due to this constant energy requirement, borrowing energy from the brain when our need- surpasses the available supply is not an option. Perhaps we could borrow energy from our muscles. Because we use far more muscle energy when we are active than when at rest, in principle, we could borrow energy when we are sitting. But the problem is that most of the energy-demanding emergencies of our ancestors required a muscular response.There was no way to borrow energy from our muscles during an emergency because relaxing when a tiger showed up was not an effective response. This brings us to our immune system, which, when strong, protects us from many illnesses and diseases. Like the brain, the immune system works at great metabolic cost, but largely in the service of keeping us healthy, in the future. We have. an enormous number of immune cells coursing through our body, a momentary break from production is fine. So. when our body needs extra energy,one of the places it goes is our immune function. When you're being chased by a tiger, you don’t need to waste energy making immune cells to fight off tomorrow's cold. What you need is to shift all available energy resources to your legs, with the hope that you will live to experience another cough or sneeze.
As a result, our immune system evolved to run in maximum amounts when we re happy, but to slowdown dramatically when we re not. With this background in mind, Trivers supposed that older people evolved a strategy of turning this relationship on its head, becoming more
focused on the positive things in life in an effort to enhance their immune. functioning. This was helped along by their knowing much more about the world than younger adults, so they can deal with some of the unpleasant things in life more easily.
63. According to Robert Trivers, when our body needs extra energy, ________
A. muscles will respond to it by relaxing a little bit
B. organs will speed up metabolic processes to answer it
C. immune system will temporarily shut down to fulfill it
D. brain will satisfy it by sharing optional metabolic output
64.In paragraph 3 “this relationship" most probably refers to the one between ________
A. experiences and related knowledge
B. happiness and biological evolution
C. immune function and health
D. optimism and length of life
65. What can be concluded from Robert Trivers study?
A. Younger people adopt strategies of handling tense situations from everyday life.
B. Our ancestors evolved their immune systems in fighting against fierce animals.
C. Realizing that their days are numbered, older people prefer being positive.
D. Being negative drains energy from our body, lowering resistance to disease.
66. Which of the following is the best title of the passage?
A. Brain, muscles and immune system
B. Age, health and happiness
C. Ancestors, emergency and evolution
D. Energy, effort and response
Section C
Directions: Read the following passage. Fill in each blank with a proper sentence given in the box. Each sentence can be used only once. Note that there are two more sentences than you need.
A. However, EV As don't just happen in empty space.
B. It sticks to everything, eventually causing joints and seals to fail.
C. Spacesuits also have to maintain ideal air pressure during a spacewalk.
D. Unfortunately, most people have no idea about space exploration or spacesuits.
E. Without the ability to work in space, we are unable to keep our space programs functional.
F There are a few things that must be taken into account to make an EV A both safe and effective.
Spacewalk!
Most people don't know that the anniversary of an important event in space exploration occurred last month. On March 18, 1965, spaceman Aleksi Leonov became the first human to complete an Extra Vehicular Activity (EV A) or spacewalk It marked the first time that a human was able to leave a spacecraft and operate in the emptiness of space. It is a dangerous procedure,
but one that is vital for the success of manned space missions.
(67)__________ In space, a spacesuit must protect people from extreme cold and heat, provide air to breathe, and remove extra carbon dioxide._ 68_ Too much of it, and the spacesuit becomes firm and difficult to move in. Too little of it, and astronauts can become dangerously sick after returning to their spacecraft.
Astronauts now perform complex jobs in the emptiness of space in modern spacesuits. They have logged many hours repairing and upgrading equipment on satellites: during EV As.
(69)___________ On July 20h, 1969,American astronaut Neil Armstrong set foot on the moon for the first time. There is no atmosphere on the moon, but there is gravity- -about 17 percent of Earth's, which means Neil needed a special suit for walking on the moon's surface. Suits for the moon are equipped for exploration far from any. vehicles, including tough boots that can resist cuts from the rough surface while walking. But sharp rocks weren't the only danger to astronauts.
The moon surface is covered with a fine and flour-like dust which consists of small particles (颗粒) leftover from the numerous. meteorite RMB) strikes on the moon.
(70)__________. When astronauts would leave the moon's gravity, the dust on their suits began floating all over. It got into delicate equipment inside the spacecraft and the astronaut's eyes and lungs. As different space agencies plan for returning people to the moon, new EV A suit designs will have to take something else into account. Keeping astronauts safe also means keeping their suits clean.
IV. Summary Writing
Directions: Read the following passage. Summarize the main idea and the main point(s) of the passage in no more than 60 words. Use your own words as far as possible.
Holding Parents Responsible -An Unfair Punishment
The rise in teen crime suggests. that some parents are failing at their parental tasks. To correct the problem,lawmakers in some states require parents to serve jail time. They hope that this punishment will motivate parents to take their responsibilities seriously.
Despite public support for parental responsibility laws, many people think that the laws are unfair. They suggest that parents should not be punished for the criminal acts of their children, unless it can be shown there is a related fault on the parents part. For example, if young teenagers. are arrested for drinking alcohol supplied by parents, then parents should be held responsible because they helped the teenagers break the law.People who oppose parental responsibility laws -also believe that punishing parents is unlikely to create a change in the kids behavior. These people argue that parents may not be at fault. The children of good parents can fall in with the wrong kids and get into trouble, they say. Worse yet, if mom is in jail, there may be no one at all to control her kid.That lack of control may then lead to more crime,/
The unfortunate fact is that jailing a mom ,or dad punishes the rest of the family. The jailed parent can not work to help feed the family or pay the rent. A parent who is sent to jail for the crimes of a teenager may also be fired from a job for missing too much work. Furthermore, little evidence exists to support the idea that the threat of punishment improves a parents ability to control a teenager. The problem is that some teens cannot be controlled by their parents, even if the parents try hard to control them. These struggling parents are not ignoring their parental responsibilities. Opponents of parental responsibility laws say that parents who are in this situation
need help, not a jail sentence.

庆余年经典台词 1、能保护你自己的，不是阴谋，不是权利，不是其他任何东西，只是力量，你要记住这一点。 2、醉过方知情浓，死后才知命重。 3、重义者，并不见得能将义字发挥；谋利者，却不见得是无义之徒。义者，大利也，只要目的正确，何必在乎手段。 4、浪花只开一时，但比千年石，并无甚不同，流云亦如此。 5、人的生命如果只有一次的话，那总是需要去看些不同的风景，遇到不同的人，这样才能让不能重来的游戏玩的尽兴些。 6、如果他试图一步步地试探我的底线，我不介意把底线摆的更向前一些。 7、别打扰我，我在成佛！ 8、这个世道很变态，你若不变态，怎么玩转过来。 9、春有风筝，夏有鱼，秋有青鸟，冬有雁，书信一来一往间，日子就这样过去了。 10、一辆马车，怎能载得动这二十年离愁，多少不自由。 11、可是人生这种东西，谁又能说的准将来？一饮一啄皆是定数，今日种下地因，日后不知会结下如何苦涩的果。 12、你这捧哏，如今拍马屁是愈发的不堪，愈发的不羁，愈发的美妙了。 13、吻君唇叶，齿有余香。
14、天大地大不如君大，君不在，则师大，师远行，则君子最大。 15、外表正太，内心却有三百六十道裂痕，每条裂痕上书春夏秋冬四字，沧桑到妖。 16、念君如三日，昨日今日明日。 17、明日复明日，便是后日，当然，这是一句废话。 18、四年前皇后曾经想过自己死，四年后，宫里的这些人依然会想自己死。 《庆余年》剧情介绍/简介 《庆余年》是由孙皓执导，王倦改编，张若昀、李沁、陈道明、吴刚、辛芷蕾、宋轶等主演的古装权谋剧。 该剧改编自猫腻的同名小说，讲述了一个有着神秘身世的少年，自海边小城初出茅庐，历经家族、江湖、庙堂的种种考验、锤炼的故事。范闲十五岁的时候，父亲范建及监察院院长陈萍萍派用毒高手费介教他识毒用毒和武功，四年后范闲武力已属上乘。在破解了一场投毒事件后，他带着危机感和对真相的探索前赴京都。在熟悉京都的过程中，范闲见识了柳如玉和弟弟范思辙的下马威，对未来的妻子林婉儿一见钟情，也看到了亭亭玉立的才女妹妹范若若。然而随即平静的生活就被突然打破，范闲在牛栏街上遭遇了一场围杀，滕子京为救范闲而死，各方庆贺范闲的逃生，更引得太子和二皇子争相拉拢，却无人在意死去的卑微侍卫滕子京，范闲感到心寒，更加理解母亲叶轻眉要改变世界的想法。在充满正义的小伙伴们的帮助下，范闲历经千山万水，不断克服各种困难。在这个过程中，范闲饱尝人间冷暖，但依然不忘赤
