Visitors can enjoy nearly 100 precious exhibits from the late Qing Dynasty (1644-1911)and Minguo Era(1912-1949), including New Year paintings and musical instruments. Children can also take part in the treasure hunt games organized by the museum, watch 4D movies and experience the primitive way of hunting fishing and chipping stone tools in the science experience pavilion.21.

Which one is the best choice among the four museums for visitors who’d like to enjoy history of both China and foreign countries?A. The National Museum of ChinaB. Zhoukoudian Relics MuseumC. The Capital MuseumD. National Art Museum of ChinaBTwo of the saddest words in the English language are “if only”. I live my life with the goal of never having to say those words, because they convey regret, lost opportunities, mistakes, and disappointment.My father is famous in our family for saying, “Take the extra minute to do it right.” I alwaystry to live by the “extra minute” rule. When my children were young and likely to cause accidents, I always thought about what I could do to avoid an “if only” moment, whether it was something minor like moving a cup full of hot coffee away from the edge of a counter, or something that required a little more work such as taping padding (衬垫) onto the sharp corners of a glass coffee table.I don’t only avoid those “if only” moments when it comes to safety. It’s equally important to avoid “if only” in our personal relationships. We all know people who lost a loved one and regretted that they had foregone an opportunity to say “I love you” or “I forgive you.” When my father announced he was going to the eye doctor across from my office on Good Friday, I told him that it was a holiday for my company and I wouldn’t be here. But then I thought about the fact that he’s 84 years old and I realized that I shouldn’t give up an opportunity to see him. I called him and told him I had decided to go to work on my day off after all.I know there will still be occasions when I have to say “if only” about something, but my life is definitely better because of my policy of doing everything possible to avoid that eventuality. And even though it takes an extra minute to do something right, or it occasionally takes an hour or two in my busy schedule to make a personal connection, I know that I’m doing the right thing. I’m buying myself peace of mind and that’s the best kind of in surance for my emotional well-being.24. Which of the following is an example of the “extra minute” rule ?A. Start the car the moment everyone is seated.B. Leave the room for a minute with the iron working.C. Wait for an extra minute so that the steak tastes better.D. Move an object out of the way before it trips someone.25. The author decided to go to her office on Good Friday to ______.A. keep her appointment with the eye doctorB. meet her father who was already an old manC. join in the holiday celebration of the companyD. finish her work before the deadline approached26. The underlined word “foregone” in Paragraph 3 is closest in meaning to ______.A. avoidedB. lackedC. abandonedD. took27. What is the best title for the passage?A. The Emotional Well-beingB. The Two Saddest WordsC. The Most Useful RuleD. The Peace of MindCHave you ever wondered when dogs first became “man’s best friend” and the world’s favourite pet? I f you have then you’re not alone. When and where dogs first began living side-side with humans are questions that have stirred hot debate among scientists. There are a few hard facts that all agree on. These include that dogs were once wolves and they were the first animal to be domesticated(驯养) by humans. They came into lives some 15000 years ago, before the dawn of agriculture.Beyond that, there is little agreement. The earliest bones found that are unquestionable dogs and not wolves date from 14,000 years ago. However, 30,000-year-old skulls have been discovered in France and Belgium that are not pure wolf and some scientists think could be dogs.With such puzzling evidence, many scientists are now turning to DNA to find out when and where dogs were first domesticated. In one research project, tens of thousands of blood samples have been taken from street dogs around the world. The plan is to compare them with those of wolves. It’s even possible to analyse DNA from ancient bones. Tiny pieces of the 30,000-year-old skulls mentioned earlier are currently being studied, and another DNA study has already shown that ancient dogs preserved in the Alaskan ice-fields evolved from Asian wolves, not American ones.Indeed, the ancient DNA may turn out to be more informative than the DNA of living dogs. Because dogs have accompanied humans around the world for thousands of years, their current distribution may tell us very little of their origins. This is why different groups of scientists believe that dogs variously originated in eastern Asia, Mongolia, Siberia, Europe or Africa.But why were the animals domesticated in the first place? The most recent theory is that dogs domesticated themselves, initially living in and around our ancient villages to eat any food thrown out. Today, this is a way of life still shared by three -quarters of a billion unowned dogs worldwide.28. Which is the only statement generally agreed on by scientists studying dogs?A. They originally were used as farm animalB. They evolved from wolves found in EuropeC. They helped the development of agricultureD. They were the first animal to be kept as pets29. Why does the writer first mention the 30,000-year-old animals skulls?A. To show that dogs were much larger in the pastB. To prove that dogs developed from Asian wolvesC. To suggest that dogs may have evolved much earlierD. To argue that dogs were first kept in France and Belgium30. How did scientists determine the origins of the ancient dogs found in Alaska?A. By examine the animals’ DN AB. By analyzing the age of their bonesC. By studying the shape of their skullsD. By comparing them with modern dogs31. Why did dogs start living with humans?A. Because they were attracted by foodB. Because they were trapped by humansC. Because they couldn’t survive in the wildD. Because they were trained to protect villagesDWhen Taking an Uber-Should You Tip or Not?Taking an Uber car may no longer be a direct driver-passenger and guilt-free experience. The ride-sharing experience is about to get awkward.With the wide application of the Internet, Uber, a new approach to your destination instead of taking an ordinary taxi, has become more popular recently. However, benefits won’t come without its fair share of drawbacks.Uber drivers are a part of the so-called sharing economy: They use their own vehicles, receive customer reviews via the app’s five-star rating system and make their own hours. Unlike other services, Uber claimed that drivers all over the country could clearly alert customers thattipping is not included. Those drivers that expect to be tipped can make their wishes known. But the company is holding to its official no-tip-required line, according to its website. “Once you arrive at your destination, your fare is automatically charged to your credit card on file—There’s no need to tip.” Although drivers value their independence—the freedom to push a button rather than punch a clock, lack of a clear policy, however, leaves Uber drivers in a vulnerable(脆弱的) position: If they ask a customer for a tip or put up a sign, that customer could give the driver a low star-rating, and the driver could finally be deactivated from the app.But has the company done a good job working with customers? Some observers say that this new grey area for tipping will create awkwardness about whether they should tip or not—something most Uber customers have not had to deal with until now. Uber did not respond to customers’ comment, just leaving their rating in the air（ignoring it）.Providing an option to tip on an app sends a clear message to customers to reach into their pockets. Nearly 30% people would be more likely to leave a tip if they were presented with a “no tip” button,according to Guinn’s 2015 survey of roughly 500 people. When people are presen ted with three tip choices—20%, 25% or 30%—they’re more likely to choose the middle option even if it’s more than the traditional 20%, according to a separate 2014 analysis of 13 million New York City taxi rides.If the service is twice as expensive during a rain storm or public transport delay, the customer has the right not to tip. However, if the driver is extra helpful or avoids traffic to reach your destination in a more timely manner, you could give an extra tip, says Uber, who will leave tipping options in the hands of the consumer rather than the app.32. Compared with taxi drivers, Uber drivers ______.A. enjoy more freedom and choicesB. support the company’s practiceC. clock up the miles while drivingD. receive customers reviews directly33. T he underlined word “deactivated” in Paragraph 4 probably means ______.A. removedB. degradedC. trackedD. charged34. From the survey we can conclude most customers ______.A. would probably tip if there is an optionB. usually do as the “no tip” sign suggestsC. tip because of Uber drivers’ good serviceD. are disappointed to reach into their pockets35. What causes the awkwardness between Uber drivers and their customers?A. Customers take advantage of the new grey area for tipping.B. There is no specific policy from the Uber to follow.C. It’s up to customers to decide the drivers’ earnings.D. Customers tend to pay least among the 3 choices.第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）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。

When people are presen ted with three tip choices—20%, 25% or 30%—they’re more likely to choose the middle option even if it’s more than the traditional 20%, according to a separate 2014 analysis of 13 million New York City taxi rides.If the service is twice as expensive during a rain storm or public transport delay, the customer has the right not to tip. However, if the driver is extra helpful or avoids traffic to reach your destination in a more timely manner, you could give an extra tip, says Uber, who will leave tipping options in the hands of the consumer rather than the app.32.

It’s up to customers to decide the drivers’ earnings.D. Customers tend to pay least among the 3 choices.第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）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。

Their enthusiasm encouraged me forward,even when tiredness threatened to overpower me.With every step,I fought against my physical limitations.The finish line seemed both distant and within reach,as I gathered every ounce of energy to force myself forward.Finally,after what felt like forever,I crossed the finish line.Though my body was weary,my efforts had paid off.The funds raised through my marathon would now enable the charity to purchase wheelchairs,transforming the lives of disabled children.The marathon not only tested my physical capabilities but also revealed the incredible impact that a single act of determination can have on the lives of others.听力原文：(Text1)M:It’s wonderful after the rain.There isn’t a cloud in the sky.It is so clear,and the air is so fresh.W:You bet!Let’s go for a walk outside on this beautiful day.(Text2)M:Excuse me,can you tell me when the next bus will leave for the train station?W:Just in ten minutes.It’s8:30now.Run quickly,and you may catch it.M:Thank you.I’ll try my best.(Text3)W:Can you describe what you lost in detail,sir?M:Well,it is a large leather suitcase with some English letters and animal patterns on it.(Text4)M:Hi,Lily.What’s on downtown?W:Hi,Mike.The Grand Theater has a historical film.The star cinema has a science fiction film.And there’s a horror film in the sunshine Theater.M:Let’s go to the star cinema.The other two films sound boring.(Text5)W:I want to see your manager.I’m really not satisfied with the restaurant’s service.M:I’m the manager.What’s the matter,madam?W:When I call the reception,there’s always no answer.(Text6)W:Did you have any trouble finding the house?M:No,not at all.We used the GPS.But it was really a long drive.W:Did you stop anywhere?M:Yeah,we consumed much strength.So we stopped and relaxed halfway to get a cold drink and stretch our legs.It was really hot out,and there were a lot of people,which was beyond our imagination.But it was a good weekend for a road trip.(Text7)W:Hello,Jim.Where are you going?M:Oh,Lucy,I’m going to a bookstore for students.What about going with me?W:No,thanks.I’m going home.Hey,young man,you are so hard-working.M:What a pity!Do you remember our homework—picking a good book to read?I believe there are many classics on the shelves now.W:Yes,but my mother is expecting me.Do you go to the bookstore a lot?M:Not really.Every Sunday,I like reading in the bookstore or buy a book rather than watch TV at home. (Text8)W:Hi,Sam.M:Oh,hello,Paula.I’m just calling to see if you want to come with us on a trip to the mountains? W:Sounds like fun!When are you going?M:Next weekend.We’re getting there by bus.You’ll need to take something to eat.W:Do I have to take my tent?M:No.Actually,we’ll live in a wood house on the farm instead of staying in a hotel and the mountains, where the owner will provide everything necessary,including bedding and cleaning items,like your toothbrush and towel.W:Cool.Who else?M:Anna and David.So there will be four of us if you come.We’ll climb and explore the mountains, enjoying the scenery and exercising our whole bodies along the way.And the house is big enough for us to have a barbecue in the evening.I’m really looking forward to the trip.W:Fantastic!Me too.(Text9)M:What’s wrong with you,dear?W:Oh,I don’t know.I just feel bored.Life is really busy.M:I’m sorry to hear that.I thought you were relaxed staying at home and looking after Tommy.W: But he is only a baby!You don’t understand anything.You leave the house early in the morning every day.And you won’t be back until seven o’clock in the evening.But I’ll be staying here all day with no one to talk to.M:But,you know,one of us must go out to work,dear.W:Yes,but your days are easier than mine.M:My work isn’t always easy.I have to read sales reports every day,deal with other companies and attend regular meetings which are not easy at all.W:I know,but at least you have chances to travel around sometimes and meet different people while I’m always doing the same things day in and day out.M:I didn’t know you were so busy and tired at home.How about going to see a movie this weekend? W:But tomorrow is just Saturday.There is no doubt that you are always busy except Sunday.M:Oh,I understand.I’ll take time off to accompany you tomorrow,and I’ll also make time to take care of our baby with you in the future.(Text10)M:Welcome to the news st Monday,a storm hit two villages.The roofs of fourteen houses were so badly damaged that their owners were afraid to live inside.The doors of seven other houses were damaged.Besides,the windows of fifteen other houses were damaged.One person was killed,and nine were badly injured and taken to hospital.A number of other people received small injuries.Altogether over two hundred people were homeless as a result of the storm.A farmer said the storm began early in the morning and lasted over an hour.He was in the kitchen with his wife when they heard a loud noise.A few minutes later,their house fell down.They managed to climb out,but then he saw that one of his children was missing.He went back inside and found him safe but very frightened.An old woman said that her husband had just left home when she noticed that her house was shaking.Her first response was to take their grandchildren out immediately.There was no time for her to take anything.A few minutes later,the roof came down.Rescuers went to the area to help the people in trouble.。
