Each word can be used only once. Note that there is one word more than you need.2019年上海春季高考英语试题(含答案)Bill Drayton believes we’re in the middle of a necessary but painful historical transition. For millenniums most people’s lives had a certain 11 . You went to school to learn a trade or a skill-baking, farming or accounting. Then you could go into the workforce and make a good living repeating the same skill over the course of your career.But these days machines can do pretty much anything that’s 12 . The new world requires a different sort of person. Drayton calls this new sort of personal changemaker.Changemakers are people who can see the patterns around them, identify the problems in any situation, figure out ways to solve the problems in any situation, figure out ways to solve the problem, organize fluid teams, lead collective action and then 13 adapt as situations change.For example, Ashoka fellow Andrés Gallardo is a Mexican who lived in a high crime neighborhood. He created an app, called Haus, that allows people to 14 with their neighbors. The app has a panic button that 15 everybody in the neighborhood when a crime is happening. It allows neighbors to organize, chat, share crime statistics andtogether.To form and lead this community of communities, Gallardo had to possess what Drayton calls “cognitive empathy-based living for the good of all.” Congnitive empathy is the ability to perceive how people are feeling in 16 circumstances. “For the good of all” is the capacity to build teams.It doesn’t matter if you are working in the cafeteria or the inspection line of a plant, companies will now only hire people who can 17 problems and organize responses.Millions of people already live with the mind-set. But a lot of people still inhabit the world of following rules and repetitive skills. They hear society te lling them: We don’t need you. We don’t need your kids, either.” Of course, those people go into reactionary mode and strike back.The central 18 of our time, Drayton says, is to make everyone a changemaker. In an earlier era, he says, society realized it needed universal 19 . Today, schools have to develop the curriculums and assessments to make the changemaking mentality universal. They have to understand this is their criteria for success.Ashoka has studied social movements to find out how this kind of 20 shift can be promoted. It turns out that successful movements take similar steps.III. Reading ComprehensionSection A22019年上海春季高考英语试题(含答案)Directions: For each blank in the following passages there are four words or phrases marked A, B, C and D. Fill in each blank with the work or phrase that best fits the context.More people are travelling than ever before, and lower harriers to entry and falling costs means they are doing so for 21 periods.The rise of “city breaks” --48-hour bursts of foreign cultures, easier on the pocket and annual leave balance has increased tourist numbers, but not their 22 spread. The same attractions have been used to market cities such as Paris, Barcelona and Venice for decades, and visitors use the same infrastructure as residents to reach them. “Too many people do the same thing at the exact same time,” says Font. “For 23 , the city no longer belongs to them.”This starts with marketing, says Font, who notes that Amsterdam has started advising visitors to seek 24 outside of the city centre on its official website. “That takes some balls, really to do that.

If you go to Paris for two days, you’re going to go to the Eiffel Tower. “If you go for two weeks, you’re not going to go to the Eiffel Tower 14 times.”Similarly, repeat visitors have a better sense of the 30 , “We should be asking how we get tourists to 31 , not how to get them to come for the first time. If they’re coming for the fifth time, it is much easier to integrate their behavior with ours.”Local governments can foster this sustainable activity by giving preference to responsible operator and even high-paying consumers. Font says cities could stand to be more selective about the tourists they try to attract when the current metric for marketing success is how many there are, and how far they’ve come. “You’re thinking, ‘yeah but at what cost...’.”He points to unpublished data from the Barcelona Tourist Board that prioritizes Japanese tourists for spending an average of €40 more per day than French tourist as a(n) 32 that fails to take into account their bigger carbon footprint. 33 tourists are also more likely to be repeat visitors that come at off-peak times, buy local produce, and 34 to less crowded parts of the city all productive steps32019年上海春季高考英语试题(含答案)towards more 35 tourism, and more peaceful relations with residents.21.

Evaluation registration can be done in person, by phone or on-line(C)Everything about nuclear energy seems terrifically big: the cost, construction and decommissioning —and the fears of something going badly wrong.The future, however, may well be much smaller. Dozens of companies are working on a new generation of reactors that, they promise, can deliver nuclear power at lower cost and reduced risk.These small-scale plants will on average generate between 50MW and 300MW of power compared with the 1,000MW-plus from a conventional reactor. They will draw on modular manufacturing techniques that will reduce construction risk, which has plagued larger-scale projects. Supporters believe these advanced modular reactors (AMRs)—most of which will not be commercial until the 2030s—are critical if atomic power is to compete against the rapidly falling costs of solar and wind.“The physics hasn’t changed. It’s about much cleverer design that offers much-needed flexibility in terms of operation,” said Tim Stone, long-term industry adviser and chairman of Nuclear risk Insurers, which insures nuclear sites in the UK.Since the Fukushima meltdown in Japan in 2011, safety fears have threatened nuclear power. But the biggest obstacle today is economic. In Western Europe, just three plants are under construction: in the UK at Hinkley point C in Somerset; at Flamanville in France; and at Olkiluoto in Finland. All involve the European Pressurized Reactor technology of EDF that will be used at Hinkley Point. All are running years late and over budget. In the US, the first two nuclear projects under way for the past 30 years are also blowing through cost estimates.The UK, which opened the world’s first commercial nuclear reactor in 1956, is one of the few western nations committed to renewing its ageing fleet to ensure energy security and meet tough carbon reduction targets. It is seen as a proving ground, by many in the industry, of nuclear power’s ability to restore confidence.However, the co untry’s agreement with EDF to build two units at Hinkley Point—which together will generate 3.2GW of electricity—has come under severe criticism over its cost. The government is looking at different funding models but said it sees nuclear power as vital to the country’s future energy mix. Small reactors, it believes, have the potential to generate much-needed power from the 2030s.62019年上海春季高考英语试题(含答案)A nuclear sector deal, unveiled last month, promised up to ￡56m in funding for research and development into AMRs and attracted interest of start-ups from around the world. The government hopes the funding will give the UK a lead in the global race to develop these technologies, helping to provide energy security while also creating a multibillion-dollar export market for British engineering companies.39. Which of the following is true about the advanced modular reactors (AMRs)?A. AMRs produce more power than traditional reactorsB. Small in scale, AMRs rose more safety risksC. So far, most AMRs have not been put into use yetD. Governments prefer energy of solar and wind to that of AMRs40. In paragraph 5, the author mentions the plants in Western Europe and the US to ________.A. prove that nuclear power has been threatened by safety concern.B. show that the construction of nuclear power plants cost more that the budget available.C. indicate the construction of nuclear plants are slow in speed.D. point out that most power plants have adopted the latest nuclear technology.41. What can be inferred from the passage?A. Some people have lost confidence in the development of nuclear plantsB. The UK government seeks to reduce the negative impact of nuclear power on its economy.C. The plan to build two power plants in Hinkley Point has been desertedD. a kind costs for small modular reactors would be higher relative to large nuclear reactors.42. Which of the following can serve as the best title of this passage?A. Britain counts on nuclear energy to keep lights onB. Traditional nuclear plants boom with mini reactorsC. Nuclear’s share of power generation remain steadD. Nuclear power looks to shrink its way to successⅣ. Summary writing43. 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.Where are the bees?Bees are essential to the production of food we eat. Bees make honey, but they also pollinate large areas of crops, such as straw berries, apples and onions. About a third of the food we eat is a result of pollination of the bees. Unfortunately, bees have been disappearing at an alarming rate.72019年上海春季高考英语试题(含答案)In 2006, bee keepers started reporting about something called Colony Collapse Disaster (CCD).The main sign of CCD is the loss of adult honey bees from a hive. In October of 2006, some beekeepers reported that they had lost between 30 and 90 percent of their hives.There were many theories for the disappearance of the bees. But the most convincing one has to do with pesticides and lifestyles of bees today. Nowadays, beekeeper get most of their income not from producing honey but from renting bees to pollinate plants. This means that the life of the typical bee now consists of travelling all around the country to pollinate crops as the seasons change. That means a lot of traveling on trucks, which is very stressful to bees. It is not unusual for up to 30% of the hive to die during transport due to stress. In addition, bees that spend most of their time locked up on trucks are not exposed to what they usually live on. Instead, they live on a sweet liquid from corn, usually polluted with pesticides.The exact reason for the disappearance of bees is not sure, but losing bees is very costly to the economy. The bee pollination services are worth over $8 billion a year. With no bees, pollination will have to be done by hand, which would have effects on the quality of food and increased food priced. We hear a lot about big environmental disasters almost every day. But one of the biggest may just be the less of that tiny flying insect._____________________________________________________________________________________ _____________________________________________________________________________________ _____________________________________________________________________________________ _____________________________________________________________________________________第Ⅱ卷（共40分）Ⅴ.

Dozens of companies are working on a new generation of reactors that, they promise, can deliver nuclear power at lower cost and reduced risk.These small-scale plants will on average generate between 50MW and 300MW of power compared with the 1,000MW-plus from a conventional rector. They will draw on modular manufacturing techniques that will reduce construction risk, which has plagued larger-scale projects. Supporters believe these advanced modular reactors (AMRs)—most of which will not be commercial until the 2030s—are critical if atomic power is to compete against the rapidly falling costs of solar and wind.“The physics hasn’t changed. It’s about mu ch cleverer design that offers much-needed flexibility in terms of operation,” said Tim Stone, long-term industry adviser and chairman of Nuclear risk Insurers, which insures nuclear sites in the UK.Since the Fukushima meltdown in Japan in 2011, safety fears have threatened nuclear power. But the biggest obstacle today is economic. In western Europe, just three plants are under construction: in the UK at Hinkley point C in Somerset; at Flamanville in France; and at Olkiluoto in Finland. All involve the European Pressurized Reactor technology of EDF that will be used at Hinkley Point. All are running years late and over budget. In the US, the first two nuclear projects under way for the past 30 years are also blowing through cost estimates.The UK, which opened the world’s first commercial nuclear reactor in 1956, is one of the few western nations committed to renewing its ageing fleet to ensure energy security and meet tough carbon reduction targets. It is seen as a proving ground, by many in the industry, of nuclear power’s ability to restore confidence.However, the country’s agreement with EDF to build two units at Hinkley Point—which together will generate 3.2GW of electricity—has come under severe criticism over its cost. The government is looking at different funding models but said it still sees nuclear power as vital to the country’s future energy mix. Small reactors, it believes, have the potential to generate much-needed power from the 2030s.A nuclear sector deal, unveiled last month, promised up to f5om in funding for research and development into AMRs and attracted interest of start-ups from around the world. The government hopes the funding will give the UK a lead in the global race to develop these technologies, helping to provide energy security while also creating a multibillion-dollar export market for British engineering companies.63. Which of the following is true about the advanced modular reactors (AMRs)?A. AMRs produce more power than traditional reactorsB. Small in scale, AMRs rose more safety risksC. So far, most AMRs have not been put into use yetD. Governments prefer energy of solar and wind to that of AMrs64. In paragraph 5, the author mentions the plants in Western Europe and the US to ________.A. prove that nuclear power has been threatened by safety concern.B. show that the construction of nuclear power plants cost more that the budget available.C. indicate the construction of nuclear plants are slow in speed.D. point out that most power plants have adopted the latest nuclear technology.65. What can be inferred from the passage?A. Some people have lost confidence in the development of nuclear plantsB. The UK government seeks to reduce the negative impact of nuclear power on its economy.C. The plan to build two power plants in Hinkley Point has been desertedD. a kind costs for small modular reactors would be higher relative to large nuclear reactors.66. Which of the following can serve as the best title of this passage?A. Britain counts on nuclear energy to keep lights onB. Traditional nuclear plants boom with mini reactorsC. Nuclear’s share of power generation remain steadD. Nuclear power looks to shrink its way to successⅣ. Summary writingDirections: 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.Where are the bees?Bees are essential to the production of food we eat. Bees make honey, but they also pollinate large areas of crops, such as straw berries, apples and onions. About a third of the food we eat is a result of pollination of the bees. Unfortunately, bees have been disappearing at an alarming rate.In 2006, bee keepers started reporting about something called Colony Collapse Disaster (CCD).The main sign of CCD is the loss of adult honey bees from a hive. In October of 2006, some beekeepers reported that they had lost between 30 and 90 percent of their hives.There were many theories for the disappearance of the bees. But the most convincing one has to do with pesticides and lifestyles of bees today. Nowadays, beekeeper get most of their income not from producing honey but from renting bees to pollinate plants. This means that the life of the typical bee now consists of travelling all around the country to pollinate crops as the seasons change. That means a lot of traveling on trucks, which is very stressful to bees. It is not unusual for up to 30% of the hive to die during transport due to stress. In addition, bees that spend most of their time locked up on trucks are not exposed to what they usually live on. Instead, they live on a sweet liquid from corn, usually polluted with pesticides.The exact reason for the disappearance of bees is not sure, but losing bees is very costly to the economy. The bee pollination services are worth over $8 billion a year. With no bees, pollination will have to be done by hand, which would have effects on the quality of food and increased food priced. We hear a lot about big environmentaldisasters almost every day. But one of the biggest may just be the less of that tiny flying insect.第Ⅱ卷（共40分）Ⅴ.

Drayton calls this new sort of personal changemaker.Changemakers are people who can see the patterns around them, identify the problems in any situation, figure out ways to solve the problem, organize fluid teams, lead collective action and then ___33___ adapt as situations change.For example, Ashoka fellow Andrés Gallardo is a Mexican who lived in a high crime neighborhood. He created an app, called Haus, that allows people to ___34___ with their neighbors. The app has a panic button that ___35___ everybody in the neighborhood when a crime is happening. It allows neighbors to organize, chat, share crime statistics and work together.To form and lead this community of communities, Gallardo had to possess what Drayton calls "cognitive empathy-based living for the good of all." Cognitive empathy is the ability to perceive how people are feeling in ___36___ circumstances. "For the good of all" is the capacity to build teams.It doesn't matter if you are working in the cafeteria or the inspection line of a plant, companies will now only hire people who can ___37___ problems and organize responses.Millions of people already live with this mind-set. But a lot of people still inhabit the world of following rules and repetitive skills. They hear society telling them: "We don't need you. We don't need your kids, either." Of course, those people go into reactionary mode and strike back.The central ___38___ of our time, Drayton says, is to make everyone a changemaker. In an earlier era, he says, society realized it needed universal ___39___. Today, schools have to develop the curriculums and assessments to make the changemaking mentality universal.

Dozens of companies are working on a new generation of reactors that, they promise, can deliver nuclear power at lower cost and reduced risk.These small-scale plants will on average generate between 50MW and 300MW of powercompared with the 1,000MW-plus from a conventional rector. They will draw on modular manufacturing techniques that will reduce construction risk, which has plagued larger-scale projects. Supporters believe these advanced modular reactors(AMRs)—most of which will not be commercial until the 2030s—are critical if atomic power is to compete against the rapidly falling costs of solar and wind.“The physics hasn’t changed. It’s about much cleverer design that offers much-needed flexibility in terms of operation,” said Tim Stone, long-term industry adviser and chairman of Nuclear Risk Insurers, which insures nuclear sites in the UK.Since the Fukushima meltdown in Japan in 2011,safety fears have threatened nuclear power. But the biggest obstacle today is economic. In western Europe, just three plants are under construction: in the UK at Hinkley Point C in Somerset; at Flamanville in France; and at Olkiluoto in Finland. All involve the European Pressurized Reactor technology of EDF that will be used a t Hinkley Point. All are running years late and over budget. In the US, the first two nuclear projects under way for the past 30 years are also blowing through cost estimates.The UK, which opened the world’s first commercial nuclear reactor in 1956,is one of the few western nations committed to renewing its ageing fleet to ensure energy security and meet tough carbon reduction targets. It is seen as a proving ground, by many in the industry, of nuclear power’s ability to restore confidence.However, the country’s agreement with EDF to build two units at Hinkley Point—which together will generate 3.2GW of electricity—has come under severe criticism over its cost. The government is looking at different funding models but said it still sees nuclear power as vital to the country’s future energy mix. Small reactors, it believes, have the potential to generate much-needed power from the 2030s.A nuclear sector deal, unveiled last month, promised up to ₤56m in funding for research and development into AMRs and attracted interest of start-ups from around the world. The government hopes the funding will give the UK a lead in the global race to develop these technologies, helping to provide energy security while also creating a multibillion-dollar export market for British engineering companies.63.Which of the following is true about the advanced modular reactors (AMRs)?A.AMRs produce more power than traditional reactors.B.Small in scale, AMRs rose more safety risks.C.So far, most AMRs have not been put into use yet.ernments prefer energy of solar and wind to that of AMRs.64.In paragraph 5,the author mentions the plants in Western Europe and the US to .A.prove that nuclear power has been threatened by safety concern.B.show that the construction of nuclear power plants cost more that the budget available.C.indicate the construction of nuclear plants are slow in speed.D.point out that most power plants have adopted the latest nuclear technology.65.What can be inferred from the passage?A.Some people have lost confidence in the development of nuclear plants.B.The UK government seeks to reduce the negative impact of nuclear power on its economy.C.The plan to build two power plants in Hinkley Point has been deserted.D.A kind costs for small modular reactors would be higher relative to large nuclear r eactors.66.Which of the following can serve as the best title of this passage?A.Britain counts on nuclear energy to keep lights onB.Traditional nuclear plants boom with mini reactorsC.Nuclear ’s share of power generation remain steadyD.Nuclear power looks to shrink its way to successIV.Summary WritingDirections: 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.Where are the bees?Bees are essential to the production of food we eat. Bees make honey, but they also pollinate large areas of crops, such as strawberries, apples and onions. About a third of the food we eat is a result of pollination of the bees. Unfortunately, bees have been disappearing at an alarming rate.In 2006,bee keepers started reporting about something called Colony Collapse Disaster(CCD).The main sign of CCD is the loss of adult honey bees from a hive. In October of 2006,some beekeepers reported that they had lost between 30 and 90 percent of their hives.There were many theories for the disappearance of the bees. But the most convincing one has to do with pesticides and lifestyles of bees today. Nowadays, beekeeper get most of their income not from producing honey but from renting bees to pollinate plants. This means that the life of the typical bee now consists of travelling all around the country to pollinate crops as the seasons change. That means a lot of traveling on trucks, which is very stressful to bees. It is not unusual for up to 30% of the hive to die during transport due to stress. In addition, bees that spend most of their time locked up on trucks are not exposed to what they usually live on. Instead, they live on a sweet liquid from corn, usually polluted with pesticides.The exact reason for the disappearance of bees is not sure, but losing bees is very costly to the economy. The bee pollination services are worth over $8 billion a year. With no bees, pollination will have to be done by hand, which would have effects on the quality of food and increased food priced. We hear a lot about big environmental disasters almost every day. But one of the biggest may just be the loss of that tiny flying insect.第 II 卷（共 40 分）V.Translation：Translate the following sentences into English, using the words given in the brackets.1.究竟是什么激发小王学习电子工程的积极性？（motivate）2.网上支付方便了客户，但是牺牲了他们的隐私。

Summary WritingDirections: Read the following passage. Summarize the main idea and the mainpoint(s) of the passage in no more than 60 words. Use your own words as far aspossible.Where are the bees?Bees are essential to the production of food we eat. Bees make honey, but they also pollinate large areas of crops, such as strawberries, apples and onions.About a third of the food we eat is a result of pollination of the bees.Unfortunately, bees have been disappearing at an alarming rate.In 2006,bee keepers started reporting about something called Colony Collapse Disaster(CCD).The main sign of CCD is the loss of adult honey bees from a hive. InOctober of 2006,some beekeepers reported that they had lost between 30 and 90percent of their hives.There were many theories for the disappearance of the bees. But the most convincing one has to do with pesticides and lifestyles of bees today. Nowadays,beekeeper get most of their income not from producing honey but from renting bees topollinate plants. This means that the life of the typical bee now consists oftravelling all around the country to pollinate crops as the seasons change. Thatmeans a lot of traveling on trucks, which is very stressful to bees. It is notunusualfor up to 30% of the hive to die during transport due to stress. In addition,bees that spend most of their time locked up on trucks are not exposed to whatthey usually live on. Instead, they live on a sweet liquid from corn, usuallypolluted with pesticides.The exact reason for the disappearance of bees is not sure, but losing bees is very costly tothe economy. The bee pollination services are worth over $8 billion a year. With no bees,pollination will have to be done by hand, which would have effects on the quality of food andincreased food priced. We hear a lot about big environmental disasters almost every day. But oneof the biggest may just be the loss of that tiny flying insect.上海市 2019 年春考英语试卷第 9页第II 卷（共 40 分）V.Translation ： Translate the following sentences into English, using thewords given in the brackets.1.究竟是什么激发小王学习电子工程的积极性？（motivate ）2.网上支付方便了客户，但是牺牲了他们的隐私。

For the blanks with a given word, fill in each blank with the proper form of the given word; for the other blanks, use one word that best fits each blank.Start With the End and Work BackwardsWhen Jason Hoelscher was an undergraduate of fin e art studies, there weren’t any professional development classes. So ambition and the timely realization (21) he would have to determine “what’s next” on his own urged Jason to engage his future self to find direction. It was 1996,and he was finishing his BFA(Bachelor of Fine Art) in Denver. He was faced with the choice of sitting back to wait for something (22) (happen),or pursuing a path into the unknown. He chose the latter.Jason set up a plan that in five years he (23) (show) his work in the top gallery in that area of the country. This five-year goal gave him a starting point (24) which to work backwards.By setting the goal, all of Jason’s efforts (25) (point) in the same direction. He showed up at different art show openings, and researched as best he could to make (26) familiar with the market environment.As a result of showing up, Jason took opportunities (27) got him closer to his goal. He sent work to a student show and was accepted by Robin Rule, the owner of Rule Gallery.(28) (inspire),Jason spent the next month making new work.In April of 1997,Jason went back to Rule Gallery with his new work.(29) scared to death, he looked confident at the gallery meeting. When he left, he left as the newest addition to the Rule Gallery roster (花名册),He had his first exhibition there one year later.Jason could have stopped with the show selection, but what he really wanted was gallery representation. He struck while the iron was hot, and in (30) (do) so, shortened his five-year plan into a year-and-a-half.Section BDirections: Fill in each blank with a proper word chosen from the box. Each word can be usedonly once. Note that there is one word more than you need.Bill Drayton believes we’re in the middle of a necessary but painful historical transition. For millenniums most people’s lives had a certain 31 .You went to school to learn a trade or a skill-baking, farming or accounting. Then you could go into the workforce and make a good living repeating the same skill over the course of your career.But these days machines can do pretty much anything that’s32 .The new world requires a different sort of person. Drayton calls this new sort of personal changemaker. Changemakers are people who can see the patterns around them, identify the problems in any situation, figure out ways to solve the problems in any situation, figure out ways to solve the problem, organize fluid teams, lead collective action and then 33 adapt as situations change. For example, Ashoka fellow Andrés Gallardo is a Mexican who lived in a high crime neighborhood. He created an app, called Haus, that allows people to 34 with their neighbors. The app has a panic button that 35 everybody in the neighborhood when a crime is happening. It allows neighbors to organize, chat, share crime statistics and work together.To form and lead this community of communities, Gallardo had to possess what Drayton calls “cognitive empathy-based living for th e good of all.” Cognitive empathy is the ability to perceive how people are feeling in 36 circumstances. “For the good of all” is the capacity to build teams.It doesn’t matter if you are working in the cafeteria or the inspection line of a plant, companies will now only hire people who can 37 problems and organize responses.Millions of people already live with the mind-set. But a lot of people still inhabit the world of following rules and repetitive skills. They hear society telling them: “We don’t need you. We don’t need your kids, either.” Of course, those people go into reactionary mode and strike back.The central 38 of our time, Drayton says, is to make everyone a changemaker. In an earlier era, he says, society realized it needed universal 39 .Today,schools have to develop the curriculums and assessments to make the changemaking mentality universal. They have to understand this is their criteria for success.Ashoka has studied social movements to find out how this kind of 40 shift can be promoted. It turns out that successful movements take similar steps.III.Reading ComprehensionSection ADirections: For each blank in the following passages there are four words or phrases markedA,B,C and D. Fill in each blank with the work or phrase that best fits the context.More people are travelling than ever before, and lower barriers to entry and falling costs means they are doing so for 41 periods.The rise of “city breaks” 48-hour bursts of foreign cultures, easier on the pocket and annual leave balance has increased tourist numbers, but not their 42 spread. The same attractions have been used to market cities such as Paris, Barcelona and Venice for decades, and visitors use the same infrastructure as residents to reach them. “Too many people do the same thing at the exact same time,” says Font. “For 43 ,the city no longer belongs to them.”This starts with marketing, says Font, who notes that Amsterdam has started advising visitors to seek 44 outside of the city centre on its official website. “That takes some balls, really, to do that. But only so many people will look at the website, and it means they can say to their residents they’re doing all they can [to ease congestion].”But it also 45 a better way, it is called “detourism” :sustainable travel tips an46 itineraries for exploring an authentic Venice, off the paths beaten by the 28 million visitors who flock there each year.A greater variety of 47 for prospective visitors ------ ideas for what to do in off-peak seasons, for example, or outside of the city center ------ can have the effect of diverting them from already saturated landmarks, or 48 short breaks away in the first place. Longer stays 49 the pressure, says Font. “If you go to Paris for two days, you’re going to go to the Eiffel Tower. If you go for two weeks, you’re not going to go to the Eiffel Tower 14 times.”Similarly, repeat visitors have a better sense of the 50 , “We should be asking how we get tourists to 51 ,not how to get them to come for the first time. If they ‘re coming for the fifth time, it is much easier to integrate their behavior with ours.”Local governments can foster this sustainable activity by giving preference to responsible operator and even high-paying consumers. Font says cities could stand to be more selective about the tourists they try to attract when the current metric for marketing success is how many there are, and how far they’ve come. “You’re thinking, ‘yeah but at what cost...’.”He points to unpublished data from the Barcelona Tourist Board that prioritizes Japanese tourists for spending an average of 640 more per day than French tourist as a(n) 52 that fails to take into account their bigger carbon footprint. 53 tourists are also more likely to be repeat visitors that come at off-peak times, buy local produce, and 54 to less crowded parts of the city------all productive steps towards more 55 tourism, and more peaceful relations with residents.41.

Grammar VocabularySection ADirections: After reading the passage below, fill in the blanks to make the passage coherent and grammatically correct. For the blanks with a given word, Hill in each blank with the proper form of the given word; for the other blanks, use one word that best fits each blank.Start with the end and work backwardsWhen Jason Hoelscher was an undergraduate of fine art studies, there weren’t any professional development classes. So ambition and the timely realization (21) ________ he would have to determine “what’s next” on his own urged Jason to engage his future self to find direction. It was 1996, and he was finishing his BFA (Bachelor of Fine Art) in Denver. He was faced with the choice of sitting back to wait for something (22) ________ (happen), or pursuing a path into the unknown. He chose the latter.Jason set up a plan that in five years he (23) _________ (show) his work in the top gallery in that area of the country. This five-year goal gave him a starting point (24) ________ which to work backwards.By setting the goal, all of Jason’s efforts (25) ________ (point) in the same direction. He showed up at different art show openings, and researched as best he could to make (26) ________ familiar with the market environment. As a result of showing up, Jason took opportunities (27) ________ got him closer to his goal. He sent work to a student show and was accepted by Robin Rule, the owner of Rule Gallery. (28) ________ (inspire), Jason spent the next month making new work.In April of 1997, Jason went back to Rule Gallery with his new work. (29) ________ scared to death, he looked confident at the gallery meeting. When he left, he left as the newest addition to the rule gallery roster (花名册). He had his first exhibition there one year later.Jason could have stopped with the show selection, but what he really wanted was gallery representation. He struck while the iron was hot, and in (30) ________ (do) so, shortened his five-year plan into a year-and-a-half.Section BDirections: Fill in each blank with a proper word chosen from the box. Each word can be used only once. Note that there is one word more than you need.people’s lives had a certain 31 . You went to school to learn a trade or a skill-baking, farming or accounting. Then you could go into the workforce and make a good living repeating the same skill over the course of your career.But these days machines can do pretty much anything that’s 32 . The new world requires a different sort of person. Drayton calls this new sort of personal changemaker.Changemakers are people who can see the patterns around them, identify the problems in any situation, figure out ways to solve the problems in any situation, figure out ways to solve the problem, organize fluid teams, lead collective action and then 33 adapt as situations change.For example, Ashoka fellow Andrés Gallardo is a Mexican who lived in a high crime neighborhood. He created an app, called Haus, that allows people to 34 with their neighbors. The app has a panic button that 35 everybody in the neighborhood when a crime is happening. It allows neighbors to organize, chat, share crime statistics and work together.To form and lead this community of communities, Gallardo had to possess what Drayton calls “cognitive empathy-based living for the good of all.”Congnitive empathy is the ability to perceive how people are feeling in 36 circumstances. “For the good of all” is the capacity to build teams.It doesn’t matter if you are working in the cafeteria or the inspection line of a plant, companies will now only hire people who can 37 problems and organize responses.Millions of people already live with the mind-set. But a lot of people still inhabit the world of following rules and repetitive skills. They hear society telling them: We don’t need you. We don’t need your kids, either.” Of course, those people go into reactionary mode and strike back.The central 38 of our time, Drayton says, is to make everyone a changemaker. In an earlier era, he says, society realized it needed universal 39 . Today, schools have to develop the curriculums and assessments to make the changemaking mentality universal. They have to understand this is their criteria for success.Ashoka has studied social movements to find out how this kind of 40 shift can be promoted. It turns out that successful movements take similar steps.Ⅲ. Reading ComprehensionSection ADirections: For each blank in the following passages there are four words or phrases marked A, B, C and D.

Evaluation registration can be done in person, by phone or on-line(C)Everything about nuclear energy seems terrifically big: the cost, construction and decommissioning—and the fears of something going badly wrong.The future, however may well be much smaller. Dozens of companies are working on a new generation of reactors that, they promise, can deliver nuclear power at lower cost and reduced risk.These small-scale plants will on average generate between 50MW and 300MW of power compared with the 1,000MW-plus from a conventional rector. They will draw on modular manufacturing techniques that will reduce construction risk, which has plagued larger-scale projects. Supporters believe these advanced modular reactors (AMRs)—most of which will not be commercial until the 2030s—are critical if atomic power is to compete against the rapidly falling costs of solar and wind.“T he physics hasn’t changed. It’s about much cleverer design that offers much-needed flexibility in terms of operation,” said Tim Stone, long-term industry adviser and chairman of Nuclear risk Insurers, which insures nuclear sites in the UK.Since the Fukushima meltdown in Japan in 2011, safety fears have threatened nuclear power. But the biggest obstacle today is economic. In western Europe, just three plants are under construction: in the UK at Hinkley point C in Somerset; at Flamanville in France; and at Olkiluoto in Finland. All involve the European Pressurized Reactor technology of EDF that will be used at Hinkley Point. All are running years late and over budget. In the US, the first two nuclear projects under way for the past 30 years are also blowing through cost estimates.The UK, which opened the world’s first commercial nuclear reactor in 1956, is one of the few western nations committed to renewing its ageing fleet to ensure energy security and meet tough carbon reduction targets. It is seen as a proving ground, by many in the industry, of nuclear power’s ability to restore confidence.However, the country’s agreement with EDF to build two units at Hinkley Point—which together will generate 3.2GW of electricity—has come under severe criticism over its cost. The government is looking at different funding models but said it still sees nuclear power as vital to the country’s future energy mix. Small reactors, it believes, have the potential to generate much-needed power from the 2030s.A nuclear sector deal, unveiled last month, promised up to f5om in funding for research and development into AMRs and attracted interest of start-ups from around the world. The government hopes the funding will give the UK a lead in the global race to develop these technologies, helping to provide energy security while also creating a multibillion-dollar export market for British engineering companies.63. Which of the following is true about the advanced modular reactors (AMRs)?A. AMRs produce more power than traditional reactorsB. Small in scale, AMRs rose more safety risksC. So far, most AMRs have not been put into use yetD. Governments prefer energy of solar and wind to that of AMrs64. In paragraph 5, the author mentions the plants in Western Europe and the US to ________.A. prove that nuclear power has been threatened by safety concern.B. show that the construction of nuclear power plants cost more that the budget available.C. indicate the construction of nuclear plants are slow in speed.D. point out that most power plants have adopted the latest nuclear technology.65. What can be inferred from the passage?A. Some people have lost confidence in the development of nuclear plantsB. The UK government seeks to reduce the negative impact of nuclear power on its economy.C. The plan to build two power plants in Hinkley Point has been desertedD. a kind costs for small modular reactors would be higher relative to large nuclear reactors.66. Which of the following can serve as the best title of this passage?A. Britain counts on nuclear energy to keep lights onB. Traditional nuclear plants boom with mini reactorsC. Nuclear’s share of power generation remain steadD. Nuclear power looks to shrink its way to successⅣ. Summary writingDirections: 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.Where are the bees?Bees are essential to the production of food we eat. Bees make honey, but they also pollinate large areas of crops, such as straw berries, apples and onions. About a third of the food we eat is a result of pollination of the bees. Unfortunately, bees have been disappearing at an alarming rate.In 2006, bee keepers started reporting about something called Colony Collapse Disaster (CCD).The main sign of CCD is the loss of adult honey bees from a hive. In October of 2006, some beekeepers reported that they had lost between 30 and 90 percent of their hives.There were many theories for the disappearance of the bees. But the most convincing one has to do with pesticides and lifestyles of bees today. Nowadays, beekeeper get most of their income not from producing honey but from renting bees to pollinate plants. This means that the life of the typical bee now consists of travelling all around the country to pollinate crops as the seasons change. That means a lot of traveling on trucks, which is very stressful to bees. It is not unusual for up to 30% of the hive to die during transport due to stress. In addition, bees that spend most of their time locked up on trucks are not exposed to what they usually live on. Instead, they live on a sweet liquid from corn, usually polluted with pesticides.The exact reason for the disappearance of bees is not sure, but losing bees is very costly to the economy. The bee pollination services are worth over $8 billion a year. With no bees, pollination will have to be done by hand, which would have effects on the quality of food and increased food priced. We hear a lot about big environmental disasters almost every day. But one of the biggest may just be the less of that tiny flying insect.第Ⅱ卷（共40分）Ⅴ.

Drayton calls this new sort of personal changemaker.Changemakers are people who can see the patterns around them, identify the problems in any situation, figure out ways to solve the problems in any situation, figure out ways to solve the problem, organize fluid teams, lead collective action and then 33 adapt as situations change.For example, Ashoka fellow Andr és Gallardo is a Mexican who lived in a high crime neighborhood. He created an app, called Haus, that allows people to 34 with their neighbors.The app has a panic button that 35 everybody in the neighborhood when a crime is happening. It allows neighbors to organize, chat, share crime statistics and work together.To form and lead this community of communities, Gallardo had to possess what Drayton calls“ cognitive empathy-based living for t he good of all. ” Cognitive empathy is the ability to perceive how people are feeling in 36 circumstances. “ For the good of all ” is the capacity to build teams.It doesn ’matter if you are working in the cafeteria or the inspection line of a plant, companies will now only hire people who can 37 problems and organize responses.Millions of people already live with the mind-set. But a lot of people still inhabit the world offollowing rules and repetitive skills. They hear society telling them: “ We dont’need you. We don’ tneed your kids, either. Of”course, those people go into reactionary mode and strike back.The central 38 of our time, Drayton says, is to make everyone a changemaker. In an earlier era, he says, society realized it needed universal 39 .Today,schools have to develop the curriculums and assessments to make the changemaking mentality universal. Theyhave to understand this is their criteria for success.Ashoka has studied social movements to find out how this kind of 40 shift can be p romoted.It turns out that successful movements take similar steps.III.Reading ComprehensionSection ADirections: For each blank in the following passages there are four words or phrases markedA,B,C and D.

Dozens of companies are working on a new generation of reactors that, they promise, can deliver nuclear power at lower cost and reduced risk.These small-scale plants will on average generate between 50MW and 300MW of powercompared with the 1,000MW-plus from a conventional rector. They will draw on modularmanufacturing techniques that will reduce construction risk, which has plagued larger-scale projects. Supporters believe these advanced modular reactors(AMRs) — most of which will not becommercial until the 2030s — are critical if atomic power is to compete against the rapidly fallingcosts of solar and wind.“ Thephysics hasn’changedt. It’abouts much cleverer design that offers much-needed flexibilityin terms of operation, said”Tim Stone, long-term industry adviser and chairman of Nuclear Risk Insurers, which insures nuclear sites in the UK.Since the Fukushima meltdown in Japan in 2011,safety fears have threatened nuclear power.But the biggest obstacle today is economic. In western Europe, just three plants are under construction: in the UK at Hinkley Point C in Somerset; at Flamanville in France; and at Olkiluotoin Finland. All involve the European Pressurized Reactor technology of EDF that will be used a tHinkley Point. All are running years late and over budget. In the US, the first two nuclear projects under way for the past 30 years are also blowing through cost estimates.The UK, which opened the world’ s first commercial nuclear reactor in 1956,is one of the few western nations committed to renewing its ageing fleet to ensure energy security and meet toughcarbon reduction targets. It is seen as a proving ground, by many in the industry, of nuclearpower ’ s ability to restoreconfidence.However, the country’agreements with EDF to build two units at Hinkley Point — which together will generate 3.2GW of electricity — has come under severe criticism over its cost. The government is looking at different funding models but said it still sees nuclear power as vital tothe countr y’ s future energy mix. Small reactors, it believes, have the potential to generate much - needed power from the 2030s.A nuclear sector deal, unveiled last month, promised up to ?56m in funding for research and development into AMRs and attracted interest of start-ups from around the world. The government hopes the funding will give the UK a lead in the global race to develop these technologies, helping to provide energy security while also creating a multibillion-dollar export market for British engineering companies.63. Which of the following is true about the advanced modular reactors (AMRs)?A.AMRs produce more power than traditional reactors.B. Small in scale, AMRs rose more safety risks.C. So far, most AMRs have not been put into use yet.D. Governments prefer energy of solar and wind to that of AMRs.64. In paragraph 5,the author mentions the plants in Western Europe and the US to.A. prove that nuclear power has been threatened by safety concern.B. show that the construction of nuclear power plants cost more that the budget available.C. indicate the construction of nuclear plants are slow in speed.D. point out that most power plants have adopted the latest nuclear technology.65.What can be inferred from the passage?A.Some people have lost confidence in the development of nuclear plants.B.The UK government seeks to reduce the negative impact of nuclear power on its economy.C.The plan to build two power plants in Hinkley Point has been deserted.D. A kind costs for small modular reactors would be higher relative to large nuclear reactors.66.Which of the following can serve as the best title of this passage?A.Britain counts on nuclear energy to keep lights onB.Traditional nuclear plants boom with mini reactorsC.Nuclear ’s share of power generation remain steadyD.Nuclear power looks to shrink its way to successIV. Summary WritingDirections: 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.Where are the bees?Bees are essential to the production of food we eat. Bees make honey, but they also pollinate large areas of crops, such as strawberries, apples and onions. About a third of the food we eat is a result of pollination of the bees. Unfortunately, bees have been disappearing at an alarming rate.In 2006,bee keepers started reporting about something called Colony CollapseDisaster(CCD).The main sign of CCD is the loss of adult honey bees from a hive. In October of 2006,some beekeepers reported that they had lost between 30 and 90 percent of their hives.There were many theories for the disappearance of the bees. But the most convincing one has to do with pesticides and lifestyles of bees today. Nowadays, beekeeper get most of their income not from producing honey but from renting bees to pollinate plants. This means that the life of the typical bee now consists of travelling all around the country to pollinate crops as the seasons change. That means a lot of traveling on trucks, which is very stressful to bees. It is not unusualfor up to 30% of the hive to die during transport due to stress. In addition, bees that spend most of their time locked up on trucks are not exposed to what they usually live on. Instead, they live on a sweet liquid from corn, usually polluted with pesticides.The exact reason for the disappearance of bees is not sure, but losing bees is very costly to the economy. The bee pollination services are worth over $8 billion a year. With no bees, pollination will have to be done by hand, which would have effects on the quality of food and increased food priced. We hear a lot about big environmental disasters almost every day. But oneof the biggest may just be the loss of that tiny flying insect.第II 卷（共 40 分）V.Translation ： Translate the following sentences into English, using the words given in the brackets.1.究竟是什么激发小王学习电子工程的积极性？（motivate ）2.网上支付方便了客户，但是牺牲了他们的隐私。

In some way, Rose Bayhas witnessed the surprising history of flying boats, a type of early seaplane. On 5 July, 1938, an Empire Class flying boat departed from here, Australia’s first international airport. It was heading for England and marked the start of the golden age of flying boats. Over ten days with 30 stops along the route, passengers enjoyed a first-class service, including breakfasts of fruit, steak, juice and wine. But the flight didn’t come cheap. Tickets were far beyond the reach of most Australians, at a price that was equivalent to an annual salary. The service was suspended in 1942 as water cold, and the planes were officially used by the air force. By the time normal life started again after the war, land-based aircraft had developed rapidly and flying boats were looking increasingly out of date. However, Sydney and its vast waters remained well placed to explore the resources, and so began a new age for the flying boats.(Now listen again.)Questions:11. When did the golden age of flying boats start?12. Why was the service of Empire Class flying boats stopped in the early 1940s?13. What is the speaker mainly talking about?Questions 14 through 16 are based on the following passage.According to some psychologists, intelligence is the ability to learn from experience, adapt to new situations, understand and handle abstract concepts and use knowledge to change one’s environment. Skills like learning, memory, reasoning andproblem-solving enhance these abilities. Therefore, certain habits may be evidence you’ve got these skills. For example, it is commonly thought that those who are intelligent are organized and have everything in their workspace arranged neatly. But that’s not the case. In an experiment from the University of Minnesota, people in a messy setting came up with more creative ideas than those in a neat space. Cathleen Voss, study author, says disorderly environments seem to inspire breaking free of tradition, which canproduce fresh ideas. Orderly environments, in contrast, encourage following traditions and playing it safe. But according to Jonathan Why, a research scientist at Duke University, creativity is one of the qualities that smart people tend to possess and may actually lead to messiness. He says, “It’s not messiness that helps creativity, but creativity which may create messiness.” Such people tend to get lost in thought while focusing on a problem or issue, and planning becomes of less importance than focusing on a problem at hand(Now listen again.)Questions:14. According to the passage, what are intelligent people like in most people’s eyes?15. According to Jonathan Why from Duke University, which of the following statements is true?16. What is the passage mainly about?Questions 17 through 20 are based on the following conversation.W: James, have you read about the research into the human brain?M: Not yet. What does it say?W: It says men are better at some things like map-reading and finding direction while women are better at other things like remembering words and faces.M: Interesting. Now I understand why I am the one in my family who does all the map reading.W: The research was done by a team from the University of Pennsylvania. They looked at the brains of nearly 1,000 men and women and found they are wired differently.M: Wired differently? You mean connected in different ways?W: Right. In males, the stronger connections run within each half of the brain. In women, the stronger connections are between the two sides of the brain.M: I see.W: The difference might explain why men are better at learning and performing a single task, like reading maps or cycling. But women are often better at doing several things at the same time. They can also concentrate on a task for longer.M: Now I can understand why I can’t do several things together.W: But not everyone agrees. A professor from the University of Oxford said the connections inside the brain are not permanently fixed and the brain is very complex. Without sufficient data, you can’t j ump to any general conclusions.M: I guess the professor is right.(Now listen again.)Questions:17. What is the conversation mainly about?18. Compared with women’s brains, what has the new research found about men’s brains?19. According to the new research, which of the following arewomen better at?20. What does the professor from the University of Oxford think of the new research findings?(That’s the end of listening comprehension.)。

When it comes to structures that are both (31)__________ and well-fortified, the classic Europe castle is the pinnacle(小尖顶) of design. Across the ages castles changed, developed, and eventually fell out of use, but they still command the (32)__________ of our culture.Castles were (33)__________ built in England by Norman invaders in 1066. As William the Conqueror (34)__________ through England, he fortified key positions to secure the land he had taken. The castles he built allowed the Norman lords to retreat to safety when threatened by English (35)__________. Castles also served as bases of operation for offensive attacks. Troops were summoned to, organized around, and deployed from castles. In this way castles served both (36)__________ and defensive roles in military operations.Not limited to military purposes, castles also served as offices from which the lord would administer control over his fiefdom(领地). That is to say, the lord of the land would hold court in his castle. Those that were socially beneath the lord would come to report the affairs of the lands that they (37)__________ and pay tribute to the lord. They would (38)__________ disputes, handle business, feast, and enjoy festivities. In this way castles served as important social centers in medieval England. Castles also served as symbols of power.

Reading ComprehensionSection ADirections: For each blank in the following passages 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.Humans hate markedly to give workers more than they deserve,and indeed many will settle for less to compensate work equitably.But is this impulse (41)__________?Perhaps not,says psychological scientist Marie Schafer in Germany.According to Schafer,nobody has ever looked athow young children from different (42)__________ think about merit when sharing rewards.There is reason to suspect that meritocracy may be more of a Western concept and value,so she and several colleagues decided to put this to the test,studying the (43)__________ of children,four to 11 years old,in three different cultures.The idea was to test how much the children valued merit.So each child was given a number of sweets equal to the total number of fish in the catch,and was told to distribute the sweets any way he or she wanted—without adults in the room to influence them.If they valued merit,children should (44)__________ the sweets according to shares of the catch.That is,if they had landed the same number of fish,they wold choose to reward each one (45)__________,but if one fared much better at fishing,rewards would also be disproportionate.In the case where they were simply given the fish,rewards should be unrelated to catch size—since no effort was involved.(46)__________ matters.That’s the main finding among many from the study,as described in a forthcoming issue of the journal Psychological Science.The German children distributed the spoils of the day precisely in proportion to (47)__________,even when this meant a very unbalanced distribution of rewards.By contrast,children from the two rural African forager(狩猎) societies barely took merit into consideration at all.These findings suggest that the basic notion of merit and distributive justice is far from universal in our species,and that (48)__________ is culturally defined.But why?The scientists offer some (49)__________ on this.It could be that in large-scale societies like Germany,a meritocracy is (50)__________ for regulating transactions between people who don’t know each other and may not interact again.The focus is on equitable interactions,because things won’t be “evened out”in the future.In small scale societies,(51)__________,most exchanges take place between people who are (52)__________ with one another.It may be more important in such societies to build long-term relationships based on equity—rather than to insist on equity in a single transaction.In egalitarian forager societies,such as the Haillom,(53)__________ is an important leveling mechanism,(54)__________ asymmetries in wealth and increasing harmony.Children may internalize these social values early on,and apply them even when the fishing trip is (55)__________.41.

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 read.(A)We Have a Painter to Thank for YellowstoneBefore artist Thomas Moran set foot in the park,it was seen as an unhappy place.After,it was market as a wonderland.Before Thomas Moran arrived,Yellowstone in the popular imagination was a harsh,will place pocked with hellish geysers.After the painter’s work was finished,Yellowstone was established as a national park and marketed as a wonderland.In 1871 Moran and photographer William Henry Jackson had joined the first U.S. government survey of the region.For two weeks Moran filled a sketchbook with the landscape’s most stunning sights.The survey results,Jackson’s photos,and Moran’s watercolors—the first color renderings of the area—were presented to Congress that fall. “The photographs were proof that what the artist was showing really existed,”says Eleanor Harvey,senior curator at the Smithsonian American Art Museum.In March 1872 lawmakers officially made Yellowstone a national park,the world’s first.By April,Moran had transformed some of his sketches into a 7-by-12-foot painting.The gold-splattered valley and billowing Lower Falls of “The Grand Canyon of the Yellowstone”attracted the public. “It is too grand and wonderful for words,”declared the Ladies’Repository that August, “and none can ever judge of its wonders from any engraving or photograph in mere black and white.”Though Moran later painted Lake Superior,the Grand Canyon,and the Rockies,hsi reputation was so intertwined with Yellowstone that he took to signing his paintings “TYM,”for Thomas “Yellowstone”Moran.56.What can we know about Yellowstone according to the passage?A.It was a popular park with geysers before Thomas Moran finished transformation.B.It was an imagination of a harsh and wild place.C.It became a national park with the efforts of Moran and Jackson.D.It is an attractive grand valley.57.What does the “pocked” mean in the first sentence (paragraph 2)?A.Packed.B.Dotted.C.Blocked.D.Stuck.58.What are the characteristics of Thomas Moran’s paintings about Yellowstone Park?A.Paying attention to color rendering of paintings.B.His magnificent and wonderful paintings.C.His reputation closely linked to Yellowstone Park.D.His paintings with nothing special.59.What does the passage mainly talk about?A.The Significance of Thomas Moran’s paintings to Yellowstone Park.B.How Yellowstone Park is established as a National Park.C.The Great Painter—Thomas Moran.D.The process of Yellowstone Park being labelled as a fairyland.(B)Why UPS Trucks (Almost) Never Turn LeftBy favoring right-hand turns at all times—unless a left is unavoidable—the carrier saves millions of gallons of fuel each year,and avoids emissions equivalent to over 20,000 passenger cars.The practice started decades ago,before computers and GPS,and is now managed by a software that conjures the most efficient route for each truck.What’s wrong with turning left?Left-hand turns are generally considered unsafe and wasteful on right-hand driving roads,such s those in the U.S.“Left-turning traffic typically has to turn against a flow of oncoming vehicles,”explains Tom Vanderbilt,author of the book “Traffic:Why we drive the way we do.”“This can not only be dangerous,but makes traffic build up,unless you install a dedicated left-turn ‘phase’,which is fine but basically adds 30 or 45 seconds to everyone else’s single time,”he said.A study on crash factors in intersection-related accidents from the U.S. National Highway Traffic Safety Association shows that turning left is one of the leading “critical pre-crash events”(an event that made a collision inevitable),occurring in 22.2 percent of crashes,as opposed to 1.2 percent for right turns.About 61 percent of crashes that occur while turning or crossing an intersection involve left turns,as opposed to just 3.1 percent involving right turns.Left turns are also three times more likely to kill pedestrians than right ones,according to data collected by New York City’s transportation planners.The right way to save fuel“A left-hand turn is also less fuel efficient,”said Jack Levis,UPS Senior Director of Process Management, “because your car’s idling(未熄火) longer,which is also not good for your vehicle.”（此处应有图片）UPS does not ban left turns outright,says Levis: “We will make left hand turns,but not ones that are unnecessary.We don’t need to go in circles all day long by making only right hand turns.We have tools analyze the number of left hand turns for each route,and we can work out which ones are avoidable.”The procedure is now incorporated in most countries around the world.To this end,the carrier created its own maps,which it says are more accurate that commercially available ones: “We can differentiate more important left-hand turns from unimportant ones.Google Maps has no concept of not making a left-hand turn,it just shows the most direct way to reach your destination.We have the ability to penalize some of those,”Levis told CNN.The system knows about parking lots,private driveways,variable speed limits and roads that are inaccessible for a truck.The software can give an undesirable left turn a penalty that adds 20 seconds to the estimated route time.In that case,going around the block and turning always right might offset that 20-second penalty: “We were able to turn off left hand turns,” said Levis.Taking a longer route while still saving time and fuel might sound confusing,even to UPS drivers,according to Vanderbilt: “I’ve actually been to UPS’s logistics center and discussed this with their lead engineers,”he said.“A lot of individual drivers felt the new routing software was making their trips longer,but they were later proven wrong.This is the thing about traffic,it’s such a complex system that often the individual cannot get a sense of the overall efficiency of the system,and optimize accordingly.It’s also one of the counter intuitive, ‘slower-is-faster’ effects you often see in traffic.”The rule,says Levis,can also be applied to left-hand driving countries,such as Australia and the UK,where it discourages right-hand turns.60.How much resources can UPS trucks save by avoiding turning left?A.UPS trucks will consume millions of gallons of fuel.B.The emission of UPS trucks is equivalent to that of over 2000 passenger cars.C.UPS trucks estimate to save 100,000 metric tons of CO2 emission a year.D.UPS trucks estimate an increase of 6 to 8 miles per route.61.In Tom Vanderbilt’s View,how to Deal with the Left Turn Problem in the United States?A.Install a dedicated left turn phase.B.Traffic planners manage road conditions.C.Operators make their own traffic maps.D.National policy encourages left turn of vehicles.62.Which of the following options is NOT TRUE according to the passage?A.It’s unsafe to turn left on right-hand driving roads.B.Turning left is resource-efficient on right-hand driving roads.C.Left turning is likely to cause traffic accidents.D.Left-turn is discouraged in all countries.(C)“Is data the new oil?”asked proponents of big data back in 2012 in Forbes magazine.By 2016,and the rise of big data’s turbo-powered cousin deep learning,we had become more certain: “Data is the new oil,”stated Fortune.Amazon’s Neil Lawrence has a slightly different analogy:Data,he says,is coal.Not coal today,though,but coal in the early days of the 18th century,when Thomas Newcomen invented the steam engine.A Devonian ironmonger,Newcomen built his device to pump water out of the south west’s prolific tin mines.The problem,as Lawrence told the Re-Work conference on Deep Learning in London,was that the pump was rather more useful to those who had a lot of coal than those who didn’t:it was good,but not good enough to buy coal in to run it.That was so true that the first of Newcomen’s steam engines wasn’t built in a tin mine,but in coal works near Dudley.So why is data coal?The problem is similar:there are a lot of Newcomens in the world of deep learning.Startups like London’s Magic Pony and SwiftKey are coming up with revolutionary new ways to train machines to do impressive feats of cognition,from reconstructing facial data from grainy images to learning the writing style of an individual user to better predict which word they are going to type in a sentence.And yet,like Newcomen,their innovations are so much more useful to the people who actuall copious(丰富的) amounts of raw material to work from.And so Magic Pony is acquired byTwitter,SwiftKey is acquired by Microsoft and Lawrence himself gets hired by Amazon from the University of Sheffield,where he was based until three weeks ago.But there is a coda to the story:69 years later,James Watt made a nice tweak to the Newcomen steam engine,adding a condenser to the design.That change,Lawrence said, “made the steam engine much more efficient,and that’s what triggered the industrial revolution.”Whether data is oil or coal,then,there’s another way the analogy holds up:a lot of work is going into trying to make sure we can do more,with less.It’s not as impressive as teaching a computer to play Go or Pac-Man better than any human alive,but “data efficiency”is a crucial step if deep learning is going to move away from simply gobbling up oodles of data and spitting out the best correlations possible.“If you look at all the areas where deep learning is successful,they’re all areas where there’s lots of data,”points out Lawrence.That’s great if you want to categorize images of cats,but less helpful if you want to use deep learning to diagnose rare illnesses. “It’s generally considered unethical to force people to become sick in order to acquire data.”63.According to the passage,why data is seen as the new coal?A.It can drive the steam engine to pump water.B.It can help people make more coals.C.It can help the areas of deep learning.D.It can help cure diagnose rare illnesses.64.According to Lawrence,why big data is less helpful to diagnose rare illnesses?A.Because there is no such demand.B.Because it can only use to categorize images of cats.C.Because it’s unethical to acquire data by forcing people to become sick.D.Because it needs too much data.65.Which areas are most likely to be successful in in-depth learning?A.Some small start-ups.B.Areas with large amounts of data.C.Coal and Petroleum Development Field.D.Areas for tackling rare diseases.66.According to the content of the article,which is NOT TRUE about the big data?A.We still have a lot of work to study the big data.B.It requires countless data to be collected.C.The purpose of studying big data is to save parents’ costs.D.“Data efficiency” is a critical step to explore more data.Section CDirections: Read the following passage. Fill in each blank with a proper sentence given in the box.The most Important Thing You’re Not Discussing with Your DoctorShared decision making requires you to be an active participant.Politicians and policymakers are discussing what parts of the Affordable Care Act to change and what to keep.While most of us have little control over those discussions,there is one health care topic that we can control:what we talk about with our doctor.The Institute of Medicine (IOM) released the landmark publication Crossing the Quality Chasm 15 years ago.The report proposed six aims for improvement in the U.S. health system,identifying that health care should be patient-centered,safe,effective,timely,efficient and equitable.The idea that health care should be patient-centered sounds obvious,but what does that mean?The IOM defines it as care that is “respectful of and responsive to individual patient preferences,needs,and values”and that ensures “patient values guide all clinical decisions.”For this to truly happen,doctors’ appointments need to cover more topics than how one is feeling and what can be done.Does your doctor know your values?(67)__________ Fewer than half of people report that their physician or other health care provider asks about their goals and concerns for their health and health care.Your doctor can discuss medical tests and treatments without knowing your life goals,but sharing your values and needs with your doctor makes discussions and decisions more personalized and may lead to better health.How does patient-centered care happen?In order for your health care to center around you,your doctor needs to know your values,preferences and needs.Everyone is different.(68)__________As a neurologist,when I’m working with a 76-year-old widow whose main goal is to remain independent in her home,we frame her care in that context.(69)__________ We discuss how a walker helps her be more independent rather than less,as she can move around her home more safely.When a stressed college student comes to my office for a bothersome tremor,his preference is to avoid medications that he might forget to take or that might harm his school performance.This guides our discussion of the pros and cons of different options,including using medications but also doing nothing,an option that almost half of patients feel strongly should always be discussed.(70)__________ In sharing their values and goals with me,these individuals enabled a health care approach that respected their needs and also responded to their life circumstances.IV. Summary WritingDirections: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.To Laugh Is HumanMost of us don’t know why we laugh at some jokes and not at others.Scientists know that we are able to laugh at birth.Babies begin to laugh at three to four months of age,well before they produce their first words.What scientists are interested in is why we laugh.Scientists believe humans laugh with others primarily because it makes us feel connected with one another,which in turn gives us a sense of trust and comfort.To scientists,laughter is an unconscious reaction;consequently,when we laugh,others can be certain that it is an hones reaction,and honesty is key when building and maintaining friendships.Since laughter is seen as a social signal that we send to others,it can also help explain why it is so infectious.Studies have proven that when people see or hear something funny,they are 20 timesmore likely to a laugh when they are with others than when they are alone.Wanting to be accepted by others is part of human nature.And mirroring other people’s laughter is a way to signal to others that you feel the way they do,which makes us feel more connected with one another. Humans have not always laughed just so they can feel closer to others,however.Scientists point out that this social function of laughter was born out of an even more fundamental human ughter,they believe,came about because it contributed to our very survival as a species.Scientists assume that sharing laughter ensured our ancestors a higher survival rate because it led to greater cooperation between individuals.Humans learned quickly that greater cooperation led to survival,and the brain in turn realized that laughing with others increased out chances of finding people to cooperate,hunt,eat,live,and eventually,survive with.第II卷（共40分）V.

Each word can be used only once. Note that there is one word more than you need.Bill Drayton believes we’re in the middle of a necessary but painful historical transition. For millenniums most people’s lives had a certain ____31____.You went to school to learn a trade or a skill-baking, farming or accounting. Then you could go into the workforce and make a good living repeating the same skill over the course of your career.But these days machines can do pretty much anything that’s ____32____.The new world requires a different sort of person. Drayton calls this new sort of personal changemaker. Changemakers are people who can see the patterns around them, identify the problems in any situation, figure out ways to solve the problems in any situation, figure out ways to solve the problem, organize fluid teams, lead collective action and then ____33____ adapt as situations change.For example, Ashoka fellow Andrés Gallardo is a Mexican who lived in a high crime neighborhood. He created an app, called Haus, that allows people to ___34___ with their neighbors. The app has a panic button that ___35___ everybody in the neighborhood when a crime is happening. It allows neighbors to organize, chat, share crime statistics and work together. To form and lead this community of communities, Gallardo had to possess what Drayton calls “cognitive empathy-based living for the good of all.” Cognitive empathy is the ability to perceive how people are feeling in ____36____ circumstances. “For the good of all” is the capacity to build teams.It doesn’t matter if you are working in the cafeteria or the inspection line of a plant, companies will now only hire people who can ____37____ problems and organize responses.Millions of people already live with the mind-set. But a lot of people still inhabit the world of following rules and repetitive skills. They hear society telling them: “We don’t need you. We don’t need your kids, either.” Of course, those people go into reactionary mode and strike back.The central ____38____ of our time, Drayton says, is to make everyone a changemaker. In an earlier era, he says, society realized it needed universal ____39____.Today,schools have to develop the curriculums and assessments to make the changemaking mentality universal. They have to understand this is their criteria for success.Ashoka has studied social movements to find out how this kind of ____40____ shift can be promoted. It turns out that successful movements take similar steps.III. Reading ComprehensionSection ADirections: For each blank in the following passages there are four words or phrases marked A,B,C and D. Fill in each blank with the work or phrase that best fits the context.More people are travelling than ever before, and lower barriers to entry and falling costs means they are doing so for ____41____ periods.The rise of “city breaks” 48-hour bursts of foreign cultures, easier on the pocket and annual leave balance has increased tourist numbers, but not their ____42____ spread. The same attractions have been used to market cities such as Paris, Barcelona and Venice for decades, and visitors use the same infrastructure as residents to reach them. “Too many people do the same thing at the exact same time,” says Font. “For ____43____,the city no longer belongs to them.”This starts with marketing, says Font, who notes that Amsterdam has started advising visitors to seek____44____outside of the city centre on its official website. “That takes some balls, really, to do that. But only so many people will look at the website, and it means they can say to their residents they’re doing all they can [to ease congestion].”But it also ____45____ a better way, it is called “detourism” :sustainable travel tips an ____46____ itineraries for exploring an authentic Venice, off the paths beaten by the 28 million visitors who flock there each year.A greater variety of ____47____ for prospective visitors ------ideas for what to do in off-peak seasons, for example, or outside of the city center ------ can have the effect of diverting them from already saturated landmarks, or ____48____ short breaks away in the first place. Longer stays ____49____ the pressure, says Font. “If you go to Paris for two days, you’re going to go to the Eiffel Tower. If you go for two weeks, you’re not going to go to the Eiffel Tower 14 times.”Similarly, repeat visitors have a better sense of the ____50____, “We should be asking how we get tourists to ____51____,not how to get them to come for the first time. If they ‘re coming for the fifth time, it is much easier to integrate their behavior with ours.”Local governments can foster this sustainable activity by giving preference to responsible operator and even high-paying consumers. Font says cities could stand to be more selective about the tourists they try to attract when the current metric for marketing success is how many there are, and how far they’ve come. “You’re thinking, ‘yeah but at what cost...’.”He points to unpublished data from the Barcelona Tourist Board that prioritizes Japanese tourists for spending an average of 640 more per day than French tourist as a(n) ____52____ that fails to take into account their bigger carbon footprint.____53____ tourists are also more likely to be repeat visitors that come at off-peak times, buy local produce, and ____54____ to less crowded parts of the city------all productive steps towards more ____55____ tourism, and more peaceful relations with residents.41.

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)I believe that, as a doctor, I should always get a blanket for my patients who need one. Yes I know there are other people who can do this. I can ask a nurse or an orderly to do it,but I believe that I should do it.So several times a day, while working in our emergency department,I leave my patient’s bedside,get them a nice warm blanket and cover them up,before continuing on my day. Which brings me back to why I believe I should offer to bring my patients a blanket.To me it is the first step in communicating to the person that my priority is his or her comfort,both physical and emotional.It is a simple act that acknowledges my desire to meet their basic needs as a patient.It may be an overused expression but I want to treat my patients the way I would want my family members taken care of.This behavior was also modeled for me when I was a patient. Shortly after college I was involved in a serious accident while working in an ambulance as a volunteer.The short story is that I broke my femur(大腿骨),the large bone in my thigh,and my recovery required a total of four surgeries over a year or so.The surgeon who performed the last three operations usually did his rounds late at night.He was a brilliant and talented surgeon who reminded me in appearance of a chain-smoking Einstein.He would ask about my pain and my mental state,but what I remember most is his offering to bring me French fries the next time he visited.I felt that he cared about me and,more importantly,understood what I was going through.He connected with me,and I trusted and obeyed everything he told me to do.Getting a blanket and placing it on my patient is,in the end,a check and balance for me.I have the power to order hundreds of test and treatments.I strive to always be right(or at least neverwrong).And on not so rare occasions, I help save a life. But in the end, if I have not made that connection with my patient, if I have not shown them I understand their needs, then I have failed them as a physician and as a person.56. According to the author, what does the performance of giving blankets to patients mean?A. It may be an overused expression although he doesn’t care about it.B. It gives him the power to order tests and treatments.C. It’s helpful to save a life when you are in trouble.D. It helps communicate his care towards his patients.57.

Dozens of companies are working on a new generation of reactors that, they promise, can deliver nuclear power at lower cost and reduced risk. These small-scale plants will on average generate between 50MW and 300MW of power compared with the 1,000MW-plus from a conventional rector. They will draw on modular manufacturing techniques that will reduce construction risk, which has plagued larger-scale projects. Supporters believe these advanced modular reactors(AMRs)—most of which will not be commercial until the 2030s—are critical if atomic power is to compete against the rapidly falling costs of solar and wind.“The physics hasn’t changed. It’s about much cleverer design that offers much-needed flexibility in terms of operation,” said Tim Stone, long-term industry adviser and chairman of Nuclear Risk Insurers, which insures nuclear sites in the UK.Since the Fukushima meltdown in Japan in 2011,safety fears have threatened nuclear power. But the biggest obstacle today is economic. In western Europe, just three plants are under construction: in the UK at Hinkley Point C in Somerset; at Flamanville in France; and at Olkiluoto in Finland. All involve the European Pressurized Reactor technology of EDF that will be used a t Hinkley Point. All are running years late and over budget. In the US, the first two nuclear projects under way for the past 30 years are also blowing through cost estimates.The UK, which opened the world’s first commercial nuclear reactor in 1956,is one of the few western nations committed to renewing its ageing fleet to ensure energy security and meet tough carbon reduction targets. It is seen as a proving ground, by many in the industry, of nuclear power’s ability to restore confidence.However, the country’s agreement with EDF to build two units at Hinkley Point—which together will generate 3.2GW of electricity—has come under severe criticism over its cost. The government is looking at different funding models but said it still sees nuclear power as vital to the country’s future energy mix. Small reactors, it believes, have the potential to generate much-needed power from the 2030s.A nuclear sector deal, unveiled last month, promised up to ₤56m in funding for research and development into AMRs and attracted interest of start-ups from around the world. The government hopes the funding will give the UK a lead in the global race to develop these technologies, helping to provide energy security while also creating a multibillion-dollar export market for British engineering companies.63. Which of the following is true about the advanced modular reactors (AMRs)?A. AMRs produce more power than traditional reactors.B. AMRs could deliver nuclear at lower costs and reduce risks.C. So far, most AMRs have not been put into use yet.D. Governments prefer energy of solar and wind to that of AMRs.64. In paragraph 4,the author mentions the plants in Western Europe and the U.S. to __________.A. prove that nuclear power has been threatened by safety concernB. show the biggest obstacle to nuclear research today is the budgetC. indicate the construction of nuclear plants are slow in speedD. point out that most power plants have adopted the latest nuclear technology65. What can be inferred from the passage?A. Nuclear power has an important impact on the country’s future energy structure.B. The UK government seeks to reduce the negative impact of nuclear power on its economy.C. The plan to build two power plants in Hinkley Point has been deserted.D. Costs for small modular reactors would be higher relative to large unclear reactors.66. Which of the following can serve as the best title of this passage?A. Britain counts on nuclear energy to keep lights onB. Traditional nuclear plants boom with mini reactorsC. Nuclear ’s share of power generation remain steadyD. Nuclear power looks to shrink its way to successSection CDirections: 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.New Paint Resists Oil and WaterHaving an automobile can be costly. In addition to paying for fuel, the owner of a car should set aside money for an insurance policy to guard against possible damage or loss. The owner also has to pay for normal repairs, like an oil change, and other work.Another cost is cleaning.(67)__________ Who would not want a car that is always clean because drops of water and oil just roll off? Now, scientists say it may not be too long before self-cleaning paints become more common in may industries.It has been long known that rainwater slides off the leaves of some plants without leaving a mark. Soon, the same may be true for raindrops on your car.Scientists can now reproduce that quality, or property, of tropical plants like the taro and lotus. Researchers are able to do this because of developments in nanophysics: the studies of very small particles.Yao Lu is a researcher from China’s Dalian University of Technology. He currently works at University College London. He used titanium dioxide nanoparticles to create a new kind of water-repellent (防水的) paint.(68)__________Up until now, the biggest problem with water-repellent paints was their vulnerability to mechanical damage.(69)__________This was solved with a special adhesive or glue that sticks to the titanium dioxide nanoparticles. “Applying this spray adhesive, we’ve managed to get very resistant coatings that are resistant to, as I say, rubbing or scratching and with sandpaper and so on.”The new kind of paint can be used on a number of materials, from clothing and paper to steel and glass.(70)__________They predict this product could be used in a number of areas, including auto manufacturing and even hospitals.IV. Summary WritingDirections: 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.Where are the bees?Bees are essential to the production of food we eat. Bees make honey, but they also pollinate large areas of crops, such as strawberries, apples and onions. About a third of the food we eat is a result of pollination of the bees. Unfortunately, bees have been disappearing at an alarming rate.In 2006,bee keepers started reporting about something called Colony Collapse Disaster(CCD).The main sign of CCD is the loss of adult honey bees from a hive. In October of 2006,some beekeepers reported that they had lost between 30 and 90 percent of their hives. There were many theories for the disappearance of the bees. But the most convincing one has to do with pesticides and lifestyles of bees today. Nowadays, beekeeper get most of their income not from producing honey but from renting bees to pollinate plants. This means that the life of the typical bee now consists of travelling all around the country to pollinate crops as the seasons change. That means a lot of traveling on trucks, which is very stressful to bees. It is not unusual for up to 30% of the hive to die during transport due to stress. In addition, bees that spend most of their time locked up on trucks are not exposed to what they usually live on. Instead, they live on a sweet liquid from corn, usually polluted with pesticides.The exact reason for the disappearance of bees is not sure, but losing bees is very costly to the economy. The bee pollination services are worth over $8 billion a year. With no bees, pollination will have to be done by hand, which would have effects on the quality of food and increased food priced. We hear a lot about big environmental disasters almost every day. But one of the biggest may just be the loss of that tiny flying insect.第II卷（共40分）V.
