The Shop Where It’s OK to Be Different
When Angela Makey knew her autistic (患自闭症的) son Adam wanted to open a comic shop, she laughed out loud. She knew he’d been keen on comics since childhood. But how would he deal with customers and suppliers and all the other jobs ___1___ are necessary for running a business?
At that time, Adam was looking for a job. He had a degree in philosophy and had learned to live independently, but there didn’t seem to be any suitable jobs for him. The family ___2___ (hope) he and his younger brother Guy, also with autism, could find work that matched their strengths: reliability, punctuality and attention to detail. But there were no available opportunities.
So the “laughable” comic shop idea began to grow on Angela. Eventually, she used her savings to buy a shop in Cambridgeshire, and seven years ago Niche Comics ___3___ (bear).
Like many autistic people, Adam loves comics for their world of rich detail and visual expression. He developed an interest in Marvel comic heroes on TV ___4___ he was seven years old. “They are a reminder ___5___ it’s OK not to be like everyone else,” Adam said. He’s now 30, and comics and their heroes are still part of his life.
In the comic shop, the brothers share their encyclopedic (渊博的) knowledge of comics with customers. The brothers act as guides in this universe, ___6___ (introduce) customers to new comics.
The shop attracts many autistic customers. And being autistic ___7___ turns out to be a big help for the brothers to deal with customers. They are good at ___8___ (spot) the customers’ needs and feelings. “Maybe it’s the tone of the voice, the motion of a hand — small details that most people won’t pick up on — that I might have insight (深刻理解) into,” says Guy. Of course, the majority of customers who come to the shop are not autistic. Now the brothers get a steady stream of customers who are, both male and female, ___9___ young children to retired people. Once the shop had established itself, the brothers also began reaching out to people with autism beyond the shop.
Seven years on, Angela is glad she took the risk of helping her sons ____10____ (create) their dream shop. “This shop has a soul,” the mother says proudly.

New E-Commerce Law Takes Effect
China’s new e-commerce law, which was passed last August, took effect on January 1. The law comes amid the rapid development of China into the world’s largest e-commerce market.
The law aims to regulate the market and create a sound ___11___ environment. It covers the requirement for registration and licensing of e-commerce operators, taxation, electronic payment, etc. It also ___12___ other important aspects of e-commerce, including false advertising, consumer protection, data protection, intellectual property and cybersecurity.
The new law will apply to three types of operators. These include e-commerce ___13___ operators like Taobao, third-party merchants who sell goods and services on e-commerce platforms, and online vendors (供应商) who do business via other network ___14___, such as social media sites. It means that merchants who sell goods through
non-traditional e-commerce platforms, such as WeChat, will fall under the new law. These sellers will now need to finish their business registration and pay ___15___ taxes.
The law will make all e-commerce platform operators ___16___ responsible with the merchants for selling any fake or knock-off goods on their websites. Before the law took effect, individual merchants were solely responsible when caught selling liable (负有偿付责任的) goods.
The implementation of the law may bring ___17___ on online retail (零售) companies and merchants selling goods through social media sites. Many private shopping agents (known as daigou) are considering whether to continue the service under the new policy since it will increase the management cost and lead to a rise in the product price.
But the new law does not aim to ___18___ small to medium sized online retailer. Instead, it helps lay the legal foundation for the growth of the e-commerce business industry, ___19___ order in the market and further promotes its growth.
Besides, the law will help clean up China’s reputation as a _____20_____ source of fake or knock-off goods. In the long term, consumers will benefit from it.
III. 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.
How Saving Wildlife Benefits Humans
It’s no secret that we’ve lost an overwhelming number of species within that last four decades. These species have all but ___21___ due to overpopulation, deforestation, consumer culture, climate change, animal exploitation, and other harming sources — all brought about by mankind.
One of the first great rules of terrestrial (陆地的) biology is “no species is forever.” ___22___, this rapid loss of species today is estimated to be between1,000and 10,000 times higher than the natural extinction rate. As increasingly accepted theories have argued, we are now in the midst of the sixth great ___23___.
The Earth consists of plants, animals, water, land, the atmosphere, and humans. Biodiversity (生物多样性) ___24___ the health of the planet and has a great impact on all our lives. Reduced biodiversity means a future where food supplies are vulnerable (易受攻击的) to pests and disease, and fresh water is in short supply. If biodiversity ___25___ impacts our lives in such big ways, then our conservation (环保) efforts don’t just benefit the environment, they benefit us, too.
One convincing benefit that comes from wildlife conservation efforts is that it ensures food ___26___. Wildlife
conservation promotes agricultural biodiversity, which plays an important role in building a secure and healthy food system. When agricultural biodiversity is ___27___ and land is cleared for agriculture, extensive habitat loss
takes place, as well as undocumented loss of species and massive soil erosion (侵蚀).
Another benefit that comes from wildlife conservation is that these ___28___ protect human health. Conservation International reports that “more than 50 percent of modern medicines and more than 90 percent of traditional medicines come from wild plants and animals.” ___29___, a world that promotes healthy
ecosystems and biodiversity provides crucial buffers (缓冲) between disease and humans. A number of studies have
___30___ reduced diversity among mammal (哺乳动物) species and overall decreases in biodiversity to an increase
in the transmission ( 传播) of animal-born diseases to humans.
Perhaps the most convincing benefit that comes from wildlife conservation is that it provides us with ___31___ . whether it be economically or socially. Increasing biodiversity and healthy ecosystems improve agricultural
productivity, thereby allowing farms to become more ___32___. Healthy ecosystems that are home to unique species
___33___ tourists from around the world, which helps the local economy and invites in a new fusion of investment.
Our unsustainable, unconscious, self-interested relationship with the environment has led us into an extremely
destructible world. If we do not take action and ___34___ changing our ways, we are at risk of losing more vital
and ___35___ ecosystems and biodiversity, or at least until the sixth great extinction claims one final species: our
own.

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)
Tea, the most typical of English drinks, is a relative latecomer to British shores. Although the custom of drinking tea dates back to the third millennium (一千年) BC in China, it was not until the mid-17th century that the drink first appeared in England. It was the Portuguese and Dutch traders who first imported tea to Europe, reaching the Continent by the way of Venice around 1560, with regular shipments by 1610.
Curiously, it was the London coffee houses that were responsible for introducing tea to England. One of the first coffee house merchants to offer tea was Thomas Garway. He sold both liquid and dry tea to the public as early as 1657. Three years later he issued a broadsheet advertising tea at ￡6 to ￡10 per pound, touting ( 兜售) its virtues at “making the body active and lusty (健壮的)”, and “preserving perfect health until extreme old age”.
Tea gained popularity quickly in the coffee houses, and by 1700 over 500 coffee houses sold it. This distressed the pub owners, as tea cut their sales of beer, and it was bad news for the government, who depended upon a steady stream of revenue (税收) from taxes on liquor sales. By 1750 tea had become the favoured drink of Britain’s lower classes.
A 1676 act taxed tea and required coffee house operators to apply for a license. This was just the start of government attempts to control, or at least, to profit from the popularity of tea in Britain. By the mid-18th century the duty on tea had reached a ridiculous 119 percent. This heavy taxation had the effect of creating a whole new industry — tea smuggling ( 走私). Ships from Holland and Scandinavia brought tea to the British coast, then stood offshore while smugglers met them and unloaded the precious cargo in small vessels. The smugglers, often local fishermen, secretly moved the tea inland through underground passages and hidden paths to special hiding places. One of the best hiding places was in the local church!
Even smuggled tea was expensive, however, and therefore extremely profitable, so many smugglers began to adulterate (掺假) the tea with other substances, such as willow and sloe leaves. Used tea leaves were also redried and added to fresh leaves.
Finally, in 1784 William Pitt the Younger introduced the Commutation Act, which dropped the tax on tea from 119% to 12.5%, effectively ending smuggling. Adulteration remained a problem, though, until the Food and Drug
Act of 1875 brought in severe punishment for the practice.
36. According to the passage, tea drinking _______.
A. is the favorite pastime of the Dutch
B. is an important British tradition
C. was well-received by the Portuguese centuries ago
D. could be found everywhere in the world in 1560
37. Who might be annoyed by the popularity of the tea?
A. Coffee house owners.
B. Wine sellers.
C. Britain’s lower classes.
D. Smugglers.
38. Which of the following statements about tea smuggling is TRUE?
A. Churches provided convenience for smuggling.
B. Fishermen and farmers contributed a lot to tea industry.
C. Underground passages and boats were ideal hiding places for tea.
D. The government encouraged tea smuggling for taxes on tea.
39. How was the order of the tea market finally restored in Britain?
A. By passing an act related to a tax rise.
B. By imposing mild punishment.
C. By punishing those who sold fake tea.
D. By mixing redried used leaves with fresh tea leaves.

(C)
China has long been tipped to be the next Silicon Valley, but now the finances and support are in place to make it happen.
There is a growing consensus ( 共识) that while Silicon Valley is not about to disappear anytime soon, its next biggest rival is already on the verge of bursting onto the international scene — not in the US, nor in the EU, but in Asia. More specifically, China.
This is not just an observation based on the rise of companies like Alibaba, Baidu and Tencent. It is grounded in a more widespread move to fund start-ups in Asia to the point where more money is being invested there than in Europe. Just five years ago, Europe and Asia are neck and neck in terms of investment.
In 2013, Europe made slightly more deals, 1550 compared to Asia’s 1071, but the total value of investment was $7bn. Just five years later, Asia is now four times the size of Europe with twice as many deals carried out.
Between 2013 to 2018, the number of deals in Asia increased nearly fivefold, and their value leapt to $81bn, compared to the $21bn raised in Europe. The Asian figure also shows that the continent is closing the gap on the US which saw $105bn worth of deals.
One of the main reasons that makes the country so attractive is not just the huge growth in investment and high education standards, but also local and national governmental support benefiting tech companies.
In fact, one of the conclusions of a recent Fortune tech conference was that China’s tech companies will soon be beating American companies on their home turf. One of the reasons is that investors believe US immigration policy is
. making it more difficult for the best talent around the world to find work there. Plus, Chinese companies are now able to start paying salaries that can keep pace with those on offer in Silicon Valley.
Hence, when Ian Roger, Chief Digital Official at luxury group LVMH was asked where he thought the next Facebook or Google would come from, he suggested it would be a close call between Silicon Valley and China. The latter had the investment that is needed as well as a hard work culture of a six-day week. It also has a superb education system and a huge population.
As Silicon Valley appears to be heating up a little too hard for some people, China would appear to be warming up at just the right pace.
43. What does the expression “on the verge of ” in paragraph 2 refer to?
A on the way of B. on the list of
C. on the condition of
D. on the point of
44. Which of the following is NOT a reason why China attracts foreign investment in tech companies?
A. High education standards.
B. Huge growth in investment.
C. Support from the government.
D. Higher salaries than those in Silicon Valley.
45. It can’t be inferred from the passage that ________.
A. the US immigration policy is strict but talent-friendly
B. Ian Roger believes the next Google might come from China
C. employees of Baidu might be accustomed to overwork
D. Chinese tech companies can provide highly competitive salaries now.
46. What is the passage mainly about?
A. The total value of investment in Asia is four times that in Europe.
B. Finances, high education standards and support make it possible for China to become the next Silicon Valley.
C. Asia attracts worldwide best talents to tech companies.
D. American tech companies will soon be beaten by those in China.

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.
What Your “Age” Says About You
Imagine, for a moment, that you had no birth certificate and your age was simply based on the way you feel inside. How old would you say you are?
Like your height or shoe size, the number of years that have passed since you first entered the world is an unchangeable fact. ____47____
Scientists are increasingly interested in this quality. They are finding that our “subjective age” may be essential for understanding the reasons why some people appear to be energetic as they grow old — while others fade.
____48____ It is now well accepted that people tend to mature as they get older, becoming less extroverted ( 外向的) and less open to new experiences. These personality changes are often considered more obvious in the people with older subjective ages.
However, those who feel younger than they really are also become more reliable and less neurotic ( 神经质的) as they gain the wisdom that comes with greater life experience. But it doesn’t come at the cost of the energy and vigor of youth. It’s not true that having a lower subjective age leaves us frozen in a state of permanent immaturity.
Feeling younger than your years also seems to come with a lower risk of depression and greater mental wellbeing as we age. ____49____ Most people felt about eight years younger than their actual chronological age (实际年龄). But some felt they had aged — and the consequences were serious. Feeling between 8 and 13 years older than your actual age resulted in an 18-25% greater risk of death over the study periods, and greater disease burden — even when you control for other demographic ( 人口学的) factors such as education, race or marital status.
____50____ However old you really are, it’s worth questioning whether any of those limitations are coming from the within.
A. It also means better physical health.
B. One of the most interesting aspects of the research has explored how subjective age interacts with our personality.
C. Some studies have explored the potential physical consequences of this difference.
D. These findings can give us all a view of the way our own brains and bodies endure the passing of time.
E. But everyday experience suggests that people often don’t experience ageing the same way.
F. Many researchers are now trying to study how this knowledge might help us live longer.
IV. Summary Writing
51.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.
When Everything Gets Smart
It still feels magical to light up your living room by saying “Alexa, turn on the lights.” Tech companies are adding internet connections to just about everything you can imagine. Cars, door locks, toasters, refrigerators,
toothbrushes, motorcycle helmets. More and more technology powers are taking part in this trend — known by “the internet of things.”
There is no denying that smart technology will lead to conveniences. You can use voice commands to turn on the lights, coffee maker and music. You can get reminders from your toothbrush to brush and tips on how best to do it. Thanks to the internet of things, you could live like the Beast in the Disney movie, with animated objects around taking care of your every need. That’s the appeal of smart homes for most people, and why they are supposed to be a $27 billion market by 2021.
However, the facts are not always so rosy. The smart objects in your home can be a source of annoyance. Usually people have to download dozens of different apps to a smartphone to control everything, which means creating an account for each one of those apps. The fantasy of the smart home is that it will save us time and effort. But the trouble involved in getting various devices from different companies to work together means that many things may take longer to do.
Worse still, there may be security risks. Smart home systems are part of a larger suite ( 套) devices, apps, websites and spaces that collect and analyze personal data about users. To get the full benefits of smart home systems, users must share their locations, routines, tastes in music, shopping history and so forth. It might manage your digital life quite well. On the other hand, however, providing so much personal information benefits companies like Amazon. As they gain access to users’ personal information, they may capitalize on ( 获利) it in the form of targeted advertisements. Perhaps that’s why Wired magazine says, “Amazon’s next big business is selling you.”
Smartened everything comes with broader security concerns. Unsecured devices connected to the “internet of things” can be targets for hackers. Access to smart devices might provide hackers a well-spring of useful data, including information about when users are home — or not.
Considering the disadvantages, why not slow down a bit as we head toward an uncertain future?

黄浦区2013年高考模拟考语文试卷 一、阅读（80分） （一）阅读下文，完成1-6题。（16分） 新艺术 丰子恺 ①世间盛传“新艺术”这个名词，浅虑的人，就在现在的新艺术与过去的旧艺术之间划了一条不可超越的界限，以为过去的都是无用的废物了。其实并不如此。艺术的分新旧，是仅就其表面而说的。艺术的表面跟了时代而逐渐变相，现在的为新，过去的为旧；但“艺术的心”是永远不变的，这犹如人的服装因了各时代的制度而改样，或为古装，或为时装；但衣服里面的肉体是不变的。脱去了衣服，古人与今人都是同样的人，无所谓古今。同理，不拘泥其表面，而接触其内部的精神，艺术也是不变的，无所谓新艺术与旧艺术的。 ②“艺术的心”不变，故艺术可说是“常新的”。 ③大画家，是从自然获得深刻的灵感，而成就其为大画家的。□□各人获得的情形不同，□□其表现的艺术样式也不同，□□绘画上就有种种的画派。伟大广博的自然，具有种种方面。从自然的形象方面获得灵感，而创作绘画，便成为“写实派”；从自然的色彩方面获得灵感，而创作绘画，便成为“印象派”；从自然的构成方面获得灵感，而创作绘画，便成为了“表现派”。各派时代不同，表现异样；但在对于自然的灵感这一点上，各派画家是相同的。 ④现今的艺术界中，流行着表现派的画风。有一班青年的艺人，以为表现主义是二十世纪的特产，这才适合于二十世纪新青年的精神；于是大家做了塞尚与马蒂斯的崇拜者。提起笔来，就在画布上飞舞线条，夸弄主观，以为非此便不新，非新便不是二十世纪的青年艺术家了。这是浅见。他们没有完备健全的“艺术的心”，他们所见的是艺术的表面。他们的艺术，犹如一个服装时髦而体格不健全的人。这人无论如何讲究服装，终于妆不出好看的模样来。反之，若先有了强健丰满的体格，则无论着何种服装，都有精神，正不必拘泥于老式与时髦了。 ⑤这所谓体格，在艺术上便是“艺术的心”。何谓“艺术的心”简言之，就是前述的“灵感”。 ⑥艺术创作的时候，必先从某自然中获得一种灵感，然后从事表现。全无何等灵感而动手刻画描写，其工作不成为艺术，而仅为匠人之事。倘学画的人只知多描，学诗的人只知多作，而皆闲却了用心用眼的功夫，其事业便舍本而逐末，而事倍功半了。在艺术创作上，灵感为主，而表现为从；即观察为主，而描写为从；亦即眼为主而手为从。故勤描写生，不如多观自然；勤调平仄，不如多读书籍。胸襟既广，眼力既高，手笔自然会进步而超越起来。所以古人学画，有“读万卷书，行万里路”的训话。可知艺术完全是心灵的事业，不是技巧的功夫。西洋有格言道： “凡艺术是技术；但仅乎技术，不是艺术。” ⑦仅乎技术不是艺术，即必须在技术上再加一种他物，然后成为艺术。这他物便是“艺术的心”。有技术而没有“艺术的心”，不能成为艺术；有“艺术的心”而没有技术，亦不能成为艺术。但两者比较起来，在“人生”的意义上，后者远胜于前者了。因为有“艺术的心”而没有技术的人，虽然未尝描画吟诗，但其人
