It is common for your mind to wander to a vacation and even travel the world. What if there is a way that you can travel the world without having to pay any money?A person that managed to make it around the world without spending much was Shantanu Starick. How did he trade off his service?Starick realized that as a photographer he had a service that people would usually be willing to pay money for, but he would instead offer his photography service to anyone who could provide him with food, shelter and transportation. Starick has been traveling for a surprising 30 months and has visited countries ranging from the United States to Ecuador.In English-speaking countries, trading off service and communicating aren’t difficult for Starick. However, in more far areas where there isn’t an English-speaking person in sight it can be quite difficult. More than anything locals appreciate (欣赏) the effort behind trying to speak their language, even if you don’t exactly sound like a native speaker.You can do it too!Honestly, with a bit of confidence, drive and a skill you can trade, you’ll be able to do exactly the same as Starick.Start thinking about what you can do to get around the world without paying money. With our social networks and the connectivity our world has, you can easily connect with and market yourself to people across the world without any effort.25.What is the author’s purpose in writing the first paragraph?( ) A .To introduce the topic. B .To describe students in class. C .To give an example for the text.D .To show people's state of mind.26.What does the underlined part “trade off” in paragraph 2 refer to?( ) A .Join. B .Exchange. C.Stop.D .Improve.27.In locals’ opinion, which of the following is the key for the traveler?( ) A .The skill to trade off. B .The confidence to succeed. C .The determination to travel.D .The effort to speak the local language.28.What do we know about Shantanu Starick?( ) A .He is a professional traveler. B .He is too poor to afford the travels.C .He has a skill to travel without paying money.D .He doesn't say other languages except English. 三、七选五 As Labor Day gets close, many Americans are trying to find some final vacation time before kids head back to school. ___29___With people still looking for that escape, it’s important to know some tips to make your dollars go the extra mile when traveling. Choose places that are in their off-season during kids’ school breaks. Over the Christmas/New Year’s break, for example, the prices for flights and hotels in the Caribbean and Hawaii are sky-high. ___30___You can go to places that are in their low season but are warm and festive(欢乐的).suites(套房) with a lot of free facilities for the money. You get a door to the kids’ room that you can close at bedtime. ___31___ A refrigerator, microwave and washing machines, as well as free breakfast, Wi-Fi and sometimes even dinner and snacks are available, too.For European city trips, rent an apartment. Hotel rooms in European cities can be expensive and tiny. They have no refrigerator or microwave, and neighbors can hear every sound. ___32___ It also gives you more space and thicker(更厚的) walls. The kitchen can help you save some money in hotel breakfast charges, and the washing machine can help you save the time for washing.___33___ Hunting for specific items — maybe they’re seashells from each beach you stop at, maps from tourist information offices or door handle do-not-disturb-signs from hotels — gives kids a task and keeps them busy in a trip. Collecting souvenirs on a certain theme is a lot cheaper than buying them.A .Look for things with your kids.B .An apartment usually costs less.C .So you can consider other places.D .Collect things instead of buying things.E .You also have more space to move around.F .You can also choose extended-stay hotels if you like.G .However, a getaway any time of the year can be pricey. 四、用单词的适当形式完成句子 34.He was always__________(amaze )by her confidence.

It’s full of famous stories, beautiful facial paintings, and wonderful gestures and fighting.

In fact, half of the 6,000-7,000 languages spoken around the world today will likely die out by the next century, according to the United Nations Educational, Scientific, and Cultural Organization (UNESCO).In an effort to prevent language loss, scholars from a number of organizations- UNESCO and National Geographic among them –have for many years been documenting dying languages and the cultures they reflect. Mark Turin, a scientist at the Macmillan Center, Yale University, who specializes in thelanguages and oral traditions of the Himalayas, is following in that tradition. His recently published book, A Grammar of Thangmiwith an Ethnolinguistic Introduction to the Speakers and Their Culture, grows out of his experience living, looking and raising a family in a village in Nepal.Documenting the Tangmi language and culture is just a starting point for Turin, who seeks to include other languages and oral traditions across the Himalayans reaches of India, Nepal, Bhutan, and China. But he is not content to simply record these voices before they disappear without record.At the University of Cambridge Turin discovered a wealth of important materials- including photographs, films, tap recordings, and field notes- which had remained unstudied and were badly in need of care and protection. Now, through the two organizations that he has founded-the Digital Himalaya Project and the World Oral Literature Project- Turin has started a campaign to make such documents, found in libraries and stores around the world, available not just to scholars but to the younger generations of communities from whom the materials were originally collected. Thanks to digital technology and the widely available Internet., Turin notes, the endangered languages can be saved and reconnected with speech communities.5. Many scholars are making efforts to _____.A.promote global languagesB.rescue the disappearing languagesC.search for language communitiesD.set up language research organizations.6. What does “that tradition” in Paragraph 3 refer to?A.Having first records of the languagesB.Writing books on language searchingC.Telling stories about language usersD.Linking with the native speakers7. What is Turin’s book based on?A.The cultural statics in India.B.The documents available at Yale.C.His language research in Britain.D.His personal experience in Nepal.8. Which of the following best describes Turin’s Work?A.Write, sell and donate.B.Record, repeat and reward.C.Collect, protect and reconnect.D.Design, experiment and report.CWhen I was a kid in the 1960s. my parents had a country store in the small town of Frankfort, Maine. No neighboring houses could be seen From our place,and new salesmen were always amazed at the amount of business we did. Dad's motto was, “We sell everything.” If he didn't have something in store, he would pick it up for customers on his weekly trip to Bangor.One time Dad was in Bangor getting shoes for someone at a shoe factory, He saw big boxes full of shoes and asked about them. They were the mates(一双鞋中的一只) to faulty shoes that had been thrown away. He looked through the boxes and realized that there were usable brand-new shoes in there. He offered the manager five cents a shoe, Dad made the deal and got the manager to reserve any future boxes for him.Of course Mon, his business partner, was more practical, and her first reaction was, “But what are you going to do with them?”Dad bought an old school bus. He cleaned it up, removed the seats and placed big containers do wn both sites of the aisle(通道). When all was ready, the whole Family helped to put the shoes in place. At first,it looked like we had plenty of room on the bus, but Dad kept bringing home more boxes.There was no sign on the Shoe Bus. 'The only advertising Dad did was to place a piece of paper beside the store exit that read “Shoes $1 a pair. "When folks asked about the deal. they learned it wasn’t that easy because they had to find their own pairs. The attraction was a combination of getting a good deal on a quality pair of shoes and the thrill of the hunt.To this day I still run into people who talk about the fun they had searching for pairs in Dad's Shoe Bus.. The author's parents ran their store well because9. A. they always had enough supplies in storeB. they won the great support of new salesmenC. they opened it in a very crowded neighborhoodD. they did all they could to meet their customers' need10.

These vessels (容器) were made to carry sacrificial offerings, to use in burial or to honor noble families in public ceremonies. When they were found by emperors centuries later, these spiritually significant objects were seen as signs of heavenly messages about a ruler or a dynasty and became prized items in royal collections. This exhibition —the first to explore these ancient objects throughout Chinese history —presents a rare opportunity to experience a large number of these works together in the United States.Unlike Greek and Roman bronze sculptures of human and animal forms, most objects from Bronze Age China (about 2000 - 221 BC) were vessels for ceremonial use. Beginning with the Song dynasty (960 - 1279), emperors unearthed these symbolic works and began collecting them, considering them to be evidence of their own authority as rulers. In addition to impressive collections, the royal fascination with bronzes led to the creation of numerous reproductions and the comprehensive cataloguing of palace holdings. These catalogues are works of art themselves, featuring beautiful drawings and detailed descriptions of each object.From the 12th century onward, scholars and artists also engaged in collecting and understanding ancient bronzes. Unlike emperors, scholars regarded bronzes as material evidence of their efforts to recover and reconstruct the past, and they occasionally exchanged them as tokens (象征) of friendship. Today ancient bronzes still occupy a primary position in Chinese culture —as historical objects and as signifiers of an importantcultural heritage that inspires new generations, as seen in the works of contemporary artists on view in this presentation.Mirroring China’s Past brings together approximately 180 works from the An Institute of Chicago’s strong holdings and from the Palace Museum in Beijing, the Shanghai Museum, and important museums and private collections in the United States. By providing viewers with a new understanding of ancient bronzes and their significance through time, the exhibition demonstrates China’s fascinating history and its developing present.12. In what way are Chinese bronzes different from Greek and Roman ones?A. They fascinated the royal family.B. They took animal or human forms.C. They served ceremonial purposes.D. They were important cultural heritage.13. What does the author think of catalogues of bronzes?A. Unreal.B. Creative.C. Artistic.D. Necessary.14. What can we infer about the exhibition according to the text?A, h is held in China. B. It is arranged by time.C. It is organized by scholars.D. It includes modem artworks.15. What does the underlined word “holdings” in the last paragraph refer to?A. Viewers.B. Collections.C. Museums.D. Art dealers.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。

Different words come into use, or older words are used in a new way.English can change by borrowing words from other languages. The word “tomato” was borrowed from Mexico, and “tea” came from China, and so on. Now a great many of new space and scie nce words are being borrowed from other countries, too. New words can be formed in other ways. For example, some can be formed by adding two words together. “Weekend” and “cookbook” are made up of two parts. Sometimes new words are shorter forms of older w ords. The word “photo” was made from “photograph” by cutting off the end of the longer word. “Plane”was made by cutting off the front part of “airplane”. The names of people and products can become new words. Our “sandwich”was named aftera man named Sandwich and “sello(透明胶带)”was a name given by the company that first made the product.46.

My teachers recommended that I study economics and statistics as my A-level subjects, but I had my mind set on a life fulfilled by the arts.In fact, I was a victim of a gender stereotype made stronger since birth, that men do science and maths and women do arts or languages. Computer science,technology and physics just did not figure in my teenage world view.Nobody in my school chose to study those subjects.Reality struck hard when I began attending job interviews and interviewers would say:“It's great that you speak foreign languages, but what else do you do?”Nobody asked my friends who had studied science or technology those questions.A survey recently showed that three of the best-paid jobs for women are in the technology sector. It's a sector that really can change the world. We must show girls that technology has an effect on every industry out there, from fashion to architecture to journalism. Anybody can learn code and these days it's as important as reading and writing.I've realized that at university I'd achieved the wrong kind of literacy. Not being able to learn code limits your impact on the world far more than ignorance of great literature.Now I have a five-year-old daughter. I don't want her to blindly follow gender roles the way I did.I want her to know the fact that a science or technical degree will not limit her creativity but expand it and broaden her horizons far more than my arts background could. I'm exposing her to Minecraft and apps, which help improve analytical thinking and problem solving skills.

As the rider walks,sensors(传感器)record the turning treadmill and kick the motor into gears(齿轮)to support the movement and set the wheels in action.Lopifit's bikes come with a heavy price tag(价格标签),at $2,495(£ 1,980)per bike.But bikers can choose their walking bike with a series of colours.At present, the company is struggling to keep up with the orders from all over the world. Bruin Bergmeester,CEO of the company says,“Our goal is to make the electric walking bike available for as many people as possible. We want to change the way people move. We wish that everyone can benefit from a greener and cleaner way of transportation that naturally improves your health.”8.When did Bruin Bergmeester come up with the idea of the Lopifit bike?A.While he was training on a treadmill in the gym.B.While he was putting one foot in front of the other.C.While he was mixing a scooter and an electric bike.D.While he was using unusual design to help users.9.What does the fifth paragraph mainly talk about?A.How to use a motor to support the treadmill.B.How to use the electric walking bike in the park.C.How the electric walking bike really works.D.

It could be possible because of technology known as CRISPR-Cas, or just CRISPR.CRISPR involves a piece of RNA, a chemical messenger, designed to work on one part of DNA; it also uses an enzyme(酶)that can take unwanted genes out and put new ones in, according to The Economist. There are other ways of editing DNA, but CRISPR will do it very simply, quickly, and exactly.The uses of CRISPR could mean that cures are developed for everything from Alzheimer's disease to cancer to HIV. By allowing doctors to put just the right cancer-killing genes into a patient's immune system, the technology could help greatly.The US' National Academy of Sciences plans to discuss questions about CRISPR's ethics(伦理问题).For example, CRISPR doesn't work properly yet. As well as cutting the DNA it is looking for, it often cuts other DNA,too. In addition, we currently seem to have too little understanding of what DNA gives people what qualities.There are also moral questions around “playing God". Of course, medicine already stops natural things from happening-for example, it saves people from infections. The opportunities to treat diseases make it hard to say we shouldn't keep going.Also,according to The Economist, gene editing may mean that parents make choices that are not obviously in the best interests of their children: “Deaf parents may prefer their children to be deaf too; parents might want to make their children more intelligent at all costs.”In the end, more research is still needed to see what we can and can't do with CRISPR. “It's still a huge mystery how we work," Craig Mello, a UMass Medical School biologist and Nobel Prize winner, told The BostonGlobe,"We're just trying to figure out this amazingly complicated thing we call life."12.What is the passage mainly about?A.What we can and can't do with CRISPR.B.The advantages of CRISPR and arguments about its ethics.C.How CRISPR was developed by scientists.D. Scientists' experiments of using CRISPR to edit human embryos.13.What does the writer mean by saying “playing God" in Paragraph 5?A.Playing jokes on religious people.B.Asking God to help deal with moral questions.C.Following the instructions of God.D.Doing things that go against nature.14.According to the passage, the technology of CRISPRA.is very safe because it only cuts the DNA it is looking forB.is very helpful to cure people of any diseaseC. could cause parents to make unwise choices for their childrenD.could help us understand how complicated life is15.What is the author's attitude towards CRISPR?A.Objective.B.Worried.C.Negative.D.Supportive.第二节(共5小题;每小题2.5分,满分12.5分)阅读下面短文,从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。

In fact, half of the 6,000-7,000 languages spoken around the world today will likely die out by the next century, according to the United Nations Educational, Scientific, and Cultural Organization (UNESCO).In an effort to prevent language loss, scholars from a number of organizations- UNESCO and National Geographic among them –have for many years been documenting dying languages and the cultures they reflect. Mark Turin, a scientist at the Macmillan Center, Yale University, who specializes in the languages and oral traditions of the Himalayas, is following in that tradition. His recently published book, A Grammar of Thangmiwith an Ethnolinguistic Introduction to the Speakers and Their Culture, grows out of his experience living, looking and raising a family in a village in Nepal.Documenting the Tangmi language and culture is just a starting point for Turin, who seeks to include other languages and oral traditions across the Himalayans reaches of India, Nepal, Bhutan, and China. But he is not content to simply record these voices before they disappear without record.At the University of Cambridge Turin discovered a wealth of important materials- including photographs, films, tap recordings, and field notes- which had remained unstudied and were badly in need of care and protection. Now, through the two organizations that he has founded-the Digital Himalaya Project and the World Oral Literature Project- Turin has started a campaign to make such documents, found in libraries and stores around the world, available not just to scholars but to the younger generations of communities from whom the materials were originally collected. Thanks to digital technology and the widely available Internet., Turin notes, the endangered languages can be saved and reconnected with speech communities.5. Many scholars are making efforts to _____.A.promote global languagesB.rescue the disappearing languagesC.search for language communitiesD.set up language research organizations.6.

Which of the following best describes Turin’s Work?A.Write, sell and donate.B.Record, repeat and reward.C.Collect, protect and reconnect.D.Design, experiment and report.CWhen I was a kid in the 1960s. my parents had a country store in the small town of Frankfort, Maine. No neighboring houses could be seen From our place,and new salesmen were always amazed at the amount of business we did. Dad's motto was, “We sell everything.” If he didn't have something in store, he would pick it up for customers on his weekly trip to Bangor.One time Dad was in Bangor getting shoes for someone at a shoe factory, He saw big boxes full of shoes and asked about them. They were the mates(一双鞋中的一只) to faulty shoes that had been thrown away. He looked through the boxes and realized that there were usable brand-new shoes in there. He offered the manager five cents a shoe, Dad made the deal and got the manager to reserve any future boxes for him.Of course Mon, his business partner, was more practical, and her first reaction was, “But what are you going to do with them?” Dad bought an old school bus. He cleaned it up, removed the seats and placed big containers down both sites of the aisle(通道). When all was ready, the whole Family helped to put the shoes in place. At first,it looked like we had plenty of room on the bus, but Dad kept bringing home more boxes.There was no sign on the Shoe Bus. 'The only advertising Dad did was to place a piece of paper beside the store exit that read “Shoes $1 a pair. "When folks asked about the deal. they learned it wasn’t that easy because they had to find their own pairs. The attraction was a combination of getting a good deal on a quality pair of shoes and the thrill of the hunt.To this day I still run into people who talk about the fun they had searching for pairs in Dad's Shoe Bus..

These vessels (容器) were made to carry sacrificial offerings, to use in burial or to honor noble families in public ceremonies. When they were found by emperors centuries later, these spiritually significant objects were seen as signs of heavenly messages about a ruler or a dynasty and became prized items in royal collections. This exhibition —the first to explore these ancient objects throughout Chinese history —presents a rare opportunity to experience a large number of these works together in the United States.Unlike Greek and Roman bronze sculptures of human and animal forms, most objects from Bronze Age China (about 2000 - 221 BC) were vessels for ceremonial use. Beginning with the Song dynasty (960 - 1279), emperors unearthed these symbolic works and began collecting them, considering them to be evidence of their own authority as rulers. In addition to impressive collections, the royal fascination with bronzes led to the creation of numerous reproductions and the comprehensive cataloguing of palace holdings. These catalogues are works of art themselves, featuring beautiful drawings and detailed descriptions of each object.From the 12th century onward, scholars and artists also engaged in collecting and understanding ancient bronzes. Unlike emperors, scholars regarded bronzes as material evidence of their efforts to recover and reconstruct the past, and they occasionally exchanged them as tokens (象征) of friendship. Today ancient bronzes still occupy a primary position in Chinese culture —as historical objects and as signifiers of an important cultural heritage that inspires new generations, as seen in the works of contemporary artists on view in this presentation.Mirroring China’s Past brings toge ther approximately 180 works from the An Institute of Chicago’s strong holdings and from the Palace Museum in Beijing, the Shanghai Museum, and important museums and private collections in the United States. By providing viewers with a new understanding of ancient bronzes and their significance through time, the exhibition demonstrates China’s fascinating history and its developing present.12. In what way are Chinese bronzes different from Greek and Roman ones?A. They fascinated the royal family.B. They took animal or human forms.C. They served ceremonial purposes.D. They were important cultural heritage.13. What does the author think of catalogues of bronzes?A. Unreal.B. Creative.C. Artistic.D. Necessary.14. What can we infer about the exhibition according to the text?A, h is held in China. B. It is arranged by time.C. It is organized by scholars.D. It includes modem artworks.15. What does the underlined word “holdings” in the last paragraph refer to?A. Viewers.B. Collections.C. Museums.D. Art dealers.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。
