2018年黑龙江省某校高考英语一模试卷第二部分阅读理解(共两节)第一节(共30分)阅读下列短文,从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中,选出最佳选项.1. A notice at IKEA (宜家) Shanghai has been shared widely among people on Chinese social media. It states that the store's cafeteria now requires customers to order food before sitting down in cafeteria seats. The policy is in response to an elderly blind dating (相亲) group that occupies seats for a long time, eating only their own food brought from home. Do you support IKEA's new regulation? China Daily readers share their opinions with us.Lee Xin (China)The elderly are harmless. They are lonely and are probably hoping to find some company again. If anything, the store should at least sympathize with these old people.Mbursian (US)This is more for socializing than for romance. I really don't picture a home furnishing store as a good dating place for seniors. IKEA could also post a reasonable time limit per visit during peak hours. Or instead of tables and chairs, they could use those standing tables and get rid of the chairs altogether. At least IKEA's cafeteria isn't occupied by the dancing grandmas and their PA systems (音响).SEARU (Australia)Romance is the most important thing while eating is not that important! So an honorable man always leaves more space for seniors' love affairs!Mr. Qiu (Shanghai, China 65 years old)We've been to fast food outlets like McDonald's ﹣ but there are barely any peers there. We feel like aliens ﹣ surrounded by young people. If there is another place in Shanghai where elderly people can gather, we are more than ready to pay twice as much and travel further.TedM (UK)Romance can arise in many places, even IKEA. However this debate arose as a result of many people taking advantage of IKEA's generous drink offers, going there to meet and stay with friends without buying anything. IKEA is a shop and it exists to provide a service for a reasonable profit. It is not a public park.Michel (New Zealand)To everyone romanticizing this, please also consider that the store has an image to maintain while protecting the interests of other paying customers. It is ugly behavior to take up seats for such a long time while you make others wait.(1) What is the major cause of this new regulation?________A IKEA store forbid romantic behavior.B Eating food brought from other places is not allowed in IKEA.C The strong reaction of people on social media.D Elderly blind dating groups do harm to IKEA's business.(2) Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage?________A SEARU believes that eating is as important as romance.B Lee Xin thinks that thestore lacks understanding to the elderly. C The elderly prefer McDonald's to other fast food restaurants. D TedM thinks that IKEA should stop offering free drinks to customers.(3) How many people are against this new regulation?________A 5 B. C 3 D.2. "Sam", the koala, the most famous survivor of Australia's worst﹣ever wildfire, is healing well thanks to the efforts of caretakers at a rescue ﹣ and she even has a new boyfriend, "Bob".Sam, who captured hearts around the world after she was photographed drinking from a firefighter's water bottle, has also won the affection of"Bob", another koala whose paws were burnt, caretaker Lynn Raymond said Thursday.Neither koala is likely to be healthy enough for release in at least four months, and both are being comforted by caretakers for their burnt paws every few hours.Global interest in the fate of Sam has been intense since a photograph of firefighter David Tree offering her a bottle of water in a burned﹣out forest was splashed across the Internet, in newspapers and on television broadcasts. The telephone at the shelter has rung continually with callers eager for update on the creature's condition."It's crazy, " Raymond said with a laugh. "But everybody has been absolutely wonderful."Sam was found moving on burnt paws by a fire patrol (巡逻员) Sunday. Tree then held out a bottle of water for her to drink, which she eagerly accepted, holding Tree's hand as he poured water into her mouth.After suffering second﹣and﹣third﹣degree burns to her paws, Sam has been sharing a cage with Bob, who took an immediate interest in her when she arrived on Sunday.Both Sam and Bob were given painkillers when they first arrived, but they're off the drugs now. The two are still receiving antibiotics (抗生素) and have their bandages changed regularly to avoid infection. The koalas are likely to be in the shelter at least four months, depending on how quickly their burns heal.(1) Why did Sam become world﹣famous?________A She drank a firefighter's water after being saved.B She was not burnt at all in the wildfire.C She was saved by a firefighter.D She fell in love with another koala.(2) How does Raymond feel about people's phone calls asking about Sam?________A Disappointed and crazy.B Meaningful and necessary.C Unexpected and thankful.D Annoyed and indifferent.(3) From the passage we know that Bob and Sam________.A are taking painkillers right now.B will be likely to heal in less than four months.C are off any kind of medicine now.D are still being treated.(4) The passage is probably taken from________.A a science fiction.B a newspaper report.C a travel brochure.D acompany website.3. A complete "artificial egg" made from plants is set to go global after the US firm behind it revealed major backing from Asia's richest man. Made from plants, it can replace eggs in everything from cakes to mayonnaise (蛋黄酱)﹣ without a chicken ever coming close to the production process. Hampton Creek's products are already sold in Whole Foods in California, and now the firm plans to take them on the world's market.Today it was announced that the firm has landed $23 million in funding. Backers include Mr. Li Ka﹣shing, Asia's richest man and Yahoo co﹣founder Jerry Yang. In the last 90 days, the company has also signed partnership agreements with 6 Fortune 500 companies, including some of the largest food manufacturers and retailers in the world ﹣although the firm is keeping their names secret until products go on sale.We've done taste tests against market leaders, and beaten them consistently. In the world of cookies, we've trialed our products with everyone from Bill Gates to TonyBlair, both of whom couldn't taste the difference. Bill Gates became an adviser to the company, and has been one of its most vocal supporters in the Silicon Valley world where Hampton Creek is based. "Companies like Hampton Creek Foods are experimenting with new ways to use heat and pressure to turn plants into foods that look and taste just like meat and eggs, " he recently wrote of the firm. It hopes to allow developing countries to grow and produce their own "plant eggs". In developing countries, we can also add in things missing from the local diet, helping solve nutrient ________, and we have had initial discussion with the world food program about this. What we want to do eventually is find a way to work with farmers in the developing world to enable them to have new cash crops that can be used. Then we become the kind of company to be feared by the bad guys in the industry.(1) Who invested funds in producing "artificial egg"?________A Bill Gates and Tony Blair.B Li Ka﹣shing and Jerry Yang.C Bill Gates and Li Ka ﹣shing.D Hampton Creek and Li Ka﹣shing.(2) The company produces things like "artificial egg" in order to________.A turn plants into foods to help diversify food varieties.B satisfy the needs of an increasing population.C create the world's latest scientific invention.D produce celebrity effect across the world.(3) Which of the following statements about "artificial egg" is right?________A A chicken is definitely needed in the production process.B It is actually a plant egg which only Americans can afford.C Its taste is more delicious than that of an ordinary egg.D It will be used by more people in developing countries.(4) Which of the following can replace the underlined word in the third paragraph?________A abundance B. C shortage D.4. A planned trip to Antigua and Barbuda sometime ago by a former American president suddenly took an amazing turn from the initial plan. The presidential aircraft could notland in Antigua and Barbuda. It was reported that the runway of the airport was too short. Therefore, the aircraft had to land in a nearby country and they came into the country by road.Everyone has a runway by which events enter his life.The events here could be favors, miracles, connections, job opportunities, etc.The size of your runway determines the level of results that will be attracted into your life.I have a story of two good friends.They finished high school together. One wanted to further his studies while the other decided to look for a job. As time went on, the one that wanted to work was always there to support the other one especially in the area of fees in school for a long time. As destiny would have it, they both lost contact and after a very long time, they met again but on a very different level. The one that added values to himself by going back to school had stepped up greatly to become the general manager of a big company and the other was just a little lifted. So it was time to pay back. The one of general manager could only support him financially and make him the chief driving officer in the company. Even though he would have loved to give him a higher post, he was not qualified especially in terms of skills, orientation (方向), experience and so on. In other words, his runway was too short for such an opportunity.Everyone must increase in knowledge and training. You must step up in your education level, business and communication skills. Your relationship with people must improve by being a good person. Your runway is enlarged anytime you add values to your life. It is never too late to start in life because every stage in life is a good place to begin.(1) In the first paragraph the president had to change his plan because________.A the weather condition was bad for their journey.B they couldn't go into that country by their plane.C they wanted to visit the neighboring country temporarily.D the president had to deal with something back in his country.(2) The two friends had different final results because________.A they lived in different countries.B one always wanted to beat the other.C they had different education levels.D they studied in different high schools.(3) What does the writer want to tell us in the last paragraph?________A How to enlarge the runway of the airport.B How to improve ourselves and become better.C How to build up relationship with a good person.D How to add values to others' life.(4) What would be the best title for this text?________A Kindness Makes a Big Difference.B Depend on Yourself.C Competition Exists Everywhere.D Always Improve on Yourself.第二节(满分10分)根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项.选项中有两项为多余选项.5. Having a learning disability doesn't mean you can't learn. Learning disabilities happenbecause of the different way a person's brain takes in and processes information.(1)_______The trick will be figuring out how you learn best.(2)_______That means they can be passed down in families through the genes, like many other characteristics we get from our parents and grandparents. Someone with a learning disability probably has other family members who have had some learning troubles,too. Kids with learning problems are sometimes surprised to find out that one of their parents had similar troubles when he or she was at school. But kids today have an advantage over their parents.It's very hard for a kid to know if he or she has a learning disability. But kids don't have to figure all this out on their own.(3)_______Start with your teacher and your mom or dad.Finding out you have a learning disability can be upsetting.(4)_______But the truth is that learning disabilities are pretty common. And if your learning specialist or psychologist has figured out which one you're facing, you're on the way back. Now, you can start getting the help you need to do better in school.To make this special help really work, you'll need to practice the new skills you're learning. It may take a lot of effort every day.(5)_______Soon, you'll enjoy the results of all your hard work: more fun and success at school.A. As a result, people learn differently.B. What a kid needs to do is to tell someone.C. That can be challenging, but you can do it.D. You might feel different from everyone else.E. There are few people who know how to do that.F.

Finance.C.Entertainment.D.Science and Technology.BI love to read before I go to sleep.It usually makes me feel calm.But a big part of this depends on what I read.I love to read Oor Wullie and The Broons.Very often I’m smiling before I go to sleep.I decide to write about this in a blog because I find that so many of us go to sleep with stress.Before we go to sleep,we may run over the day in our minds,and worry about tomorrow.We also may watch the news on TV,read the news on our smart phones or tablets,or even answer work emails.But the news is rarely proclaiming (宣告) all the things that are happening in the world and work emails make us feel that we’re still at work.All these things may leave us a stressful sleep.Oor Wullie and The Broons are not the only things I ever read at night.I sometimes read novels but,with the odd exception,I mostly avoid anything that is too mentally taxing or stimulating late at night unless it’s something that inspires me or is clearly helpful in my life.And even if I do read something mentally stimulating,when I feel myself getting tired I lay that book down and pick up trusty old Oor Wullie or The Broons for the last 10 or 15 minutes.Doing this makes my mind quiet and helps ensure that I get a peaceful sleep.Reading about Wullie or Maw and Paw Broon is like a comfort blanket for me.I’d suggest you find light-hearted reading as a comfort blanket at bedtime,especially if you find yourself stressed or depressed a lot of the time,or if you find difficulty winding at the end of a day.It is the thing that can gently turn your attention towards lightness and ease.If your material makes you laugh,then you may feel even better.Several studies show that laughter boosts happy chemicals in the brain.It strengthens the immune system,it’s good for the heart,and it is most definitely good for mental health.It even helps us improve our relationships.And if you do happen to pick up a copy of Oor Wullie or The Broons,I hope you find it just as entertaining as I do.24.What can we learn about Oor Wullie and The Broons?A.They make people run over the past days.B.They are the best books to be read before people sleep.C.They are extremely popular with young people.D.They make people feel relaxed and happy.25.What can we know from the text?A.Oor Wullie and The Broons are the author’s favorite books.B.A comfortable blanket makes people go to sleep easily.C.The author sometimes reads something about inspiration.D.Reading something stimulating at night helps get a peaceful sleep.26.What is Paragraph 6 mainly about?A.What material brings us laughter.B.How laughter affects our health.C.What benefits laughter brings to us.D.Why laughter is good for us.27.What’s the main purpose of the text?A.To show the importance of reading before sleeping.B.To prove the importance of a good mood before sleeping.C.To tell us how to make ourselves stay relaxed before sleeping.D.To explain how to choose a book worthy to be read before sleeping.CSometimes people call each other “scared-cat”.But have you ever thought about this expression?When a cat is frightened,its heart starts beating faster,its muscles get tense and there are changes in the chemicals in its bloodstream.Although the cat doesn’t realize this,its body is getting ready for action.If the danger continues,the animal will do one of two things.It will protect itself,or it will run away as fast as it can.Something like this also happens to people.When we are excited,angry or scared by other feelings,our bodies go through many physical changes.Our hearts beat faster,and our muscles get tense.All of these changes make us more alert and ready to react.We,too,get ready to defend ourselves or run.Human beings,however,have a problem that animals never face.If we give way to our feelings and let them take over,we can get into trouble.Have you ever said something in anger or hit somebody and regretted it later?Have you ever shouted at a teacher,told somebody you were lonely,or said you were in love,and then wished later you had kept your mouth shut?It isn’t always clever to express your feelings freely.Does this mean that it’s smarter to always hide our feelings?No!If you keep feelings of anger or sadnesshidden away or bottled up inside,your body stays tense.Physical illness can develop,and you can feel disturbed badly inside.It can actually be bad for your health.It isn’t good to keep pleasant feelings inside either; all feelings need to be expressed.Feelings that you keep all bottled up inside don’t just go away.It’s as if you bought some bananas and put them in a cupboard.You might not be able to see them,but before long you’d smell them.And if you opened the cupboard,chances are that you’d see little fruit flies flying all over them.They are bad.You can try to treat feelings as if they were bananas in the cupboard.You can hide them and you can pretend they don’t exist,but they’ll still be around.And at last you’ll have to deal with them,just like those bananas.28.When people and animals are aroused by fear,.A.they feel very regretful immediatelyB.their muscles get neither tense nor relaxedC.their hearts beat either faster or slowerD.they may get ready to attack or run away29.Why do human beings get into trouble according to the passage?A.They are usually not as alert as animals.B.They sometimes can’t control their feelings.C.They always do something wrong to other people.D.They don’t pay attention to their physical changes.30.What can we infer from the passage?A.Holding in your feelings may lead to unpleasant results.B.Bananas stay fresh longer when they are in a cupboard.C.Feelings will gradually disappear when you hold them in.D.It’s good for your health to keep pleasant feelings inside.31.What is the purpose of this passage?A.To tell us that people’s feelings are like bananas in a cupboard.B.To give us some advice on how to express our feelings.C.To help us deal with feelings in a wise and proper way.D.To prove that it isn’t always wise to express our feelings freely.DSome people are so rude!Who sends an e-mail or a text message that just says “Thank you”?Who leaves a voice mail message rather than texts you?Who asks for a fact easily found on Google?Don’t these people realize that they’re wasting your time?Maybe I’m the rude one for not appreciating life’s little politeness.But many social agreed standards just don’t make sense to people drowning in digital communication.In texts,you don’t have to declare who you are or even say hello.E-mail,too,is slower than a text.Voice mail is a now impolite way of trying to connect.My father learned this lesson after leaving me a dozen voice mail messages,none of which I listened to.Exasperated,he called my sister to express his dissatisfaction that I never returned his phone calls.“Why are you leaving him voice mail?” my sister asked.“Just text him.”In the age of the smartphone,there is no reason to ask once-acceptable questions about:the weather forecast,a business’s phone number,or directions to a house,a restaurant,which can be easily found on Google Maps.But people still ask these things.And when you answer,they respond with a thank-you e-mail.How to handle these differing standards?Easy.Consider your audience.Some people,especially older ones,appreciate a thank-you message.Others,like me,want no reply.The anthropologist (人类学家) Margaret Mead once said that in traditional societies,the young learnt from the old.But in modern societies,the old can also learn from the young.Here’s hoping that politeness never goes out of fashion but that time-wasting forms of communication do.32.What does the underlined word “Exasperated” mean in the fifth paragraph?A.Worried.B.Surprised.C.Annoyed.D.Tired.33.Why didn’t the writer reply to his father?A.He liked text messages better.B.He enjoyed checking his voice mail.C.He didn’t receive any voice mail messages.D.He didn’t want to talk with his father.34.Which of the following does the writer agree to?A.People needn’t learn from one another in traditional societies.B.Dealing with voice mail should vary with each individual.C.People needn’t turn to Google for help when in trouble.D.Declaring who you are or saying hello in texts is necessary.35.What’s the best title of this passage?A.Nowadays:what should we do with text messages?B.Nowadays:do you like leaving others a voice message?C.Nowadays:what means should we use in communication?D.Nowadays:do you need a thank-you message?第二节(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

One of us would walk her, another would feed her, then there were baths, playing catch and many other games, Brownie in return, loved each and every one of us. One thing that most touched my heart was that she would go to whoever was sick and just be with them and we always felt better when she was around.One day, as I was getting her food, she chewed up (咬破) one of Dad’s shoes, which had to be thrown away in the end. I knew Dad would be mad and I had to let her know what she did was wrong. When I looked at her and said, “Bad girl,” she looked down at the ground and then went and hid. I saw a tear in her eyes.Brownie turned out to be more than just our family pet, she went everywhere with us. People would stop and ask if they could pet her. Of course she’d let anyone pet her. She was just the most lovable dog. There were many times when we’d be out walking and a small child would come over and pull up her hair, she never barked (吠) or tried to get away.

CaringB. PoliteC. BraveD. ShyCVincent Willem van Gogh (30 March, 1853—29 July, 1890) was a Dutch Post-Impressionist artist. He is considered one of the greatest artists with great influence on the greatest artists with great influence on the 20th-century art.Van Gogh spent his early adult life working for a firm of art dealers. After a brief period as a teacher, he became a missionary (传教士) in a very poor mining region. He did not begin his career as an artist until 1880; however, during the last ten years of his life, he produced more than 2,000 pieces, including around 900 paintings and 1,100 drawing and sketched (素描). He worked only with somber colours until he met Impressionism and Neo-Impressionism in Paris. Van Gogh used their bright colours and style of painting in a uniquely recognizable style. Most of his best-known works were produced during his final two years, when he was suffering from serious mental illness.In 1890, at the age of 37, van Gogh shot himself in the chest. He died two days later, with Theo, his brother and his best friend, at his side, who reported his last words as “The sadness will last forever”. It would not take long before his fame grew higher and higher.Van Gogh’s mother threw away quite a number of his paintings. The only painting he sold duringhis lifetime, The Red Vineyard, was created in 1888. It is now on display in the Pushkin Museum in Moscow, Russia. Several paintings by van Gogh rank among the most expensive paintings in the world. On March 30, 1987 van Gogh’s painting Irises was sold for a record of $ 53.9 million at Southby’s, New York. On May 15, 1990 his Portrait of Doctor Gachet was sold for $ 83.5 million at Christie’s, thus setting a new price record.9. When did van Gogh begin his career as an artist?A. At the age of 17B.

What can we learn from the passage?A. Irises was the most expensive among van Gogh’s paintingsB. Van Gogh didn’t become famous until he diesC. Van Gogh had become famous as an artist when he was aliveD. Van Gogh sold many paintings in his lifeDWe can achieve knowledge either actively or passively. We achieve it actively by direct experience, by testing and proving an idea, or by reasoning.We achieve knowledge passively by being told by someone else. Most of the learning that takes place in the classroom and the kind that happens when we watch TV or read newspapers or magazines is passive. Conditioned as we are to passive learning, it’s not surprising that we depend on it in our everyday communication with friends and co-workers.Unfortunately, passive learning has a serious problem. It makes us tend to accept what we are toldeven when it is little more than hearsay (传闻) and rumor.Did you ever play the game Rumor? It begins when one person writes down a message but doesn’t show it to anyone. Then the person whispers it, word for word, to another person. Thai person, in turn, whispers it to still another, and so on, through all the people playing the game. The last person writes down the message word for word as he or she hears it. Then the two written statements arc compared. Typically, the original message has changed.That’s what happens in daily life. The simple fact that people repeat a story in their own words changes the story. Then, too, most people listen imperfectly. And many enjoy adding their own creative touch to a story, trying to improve on it, stamping it with their own personal style. Yet those who hear it think they know.This process is also found among scholars and authors: A statement of opinion by one writer may be restated as fact by another, who may in turn be quoted by yet another; and this process may continue, unless it occurs to someone to question the facts on which the original writer based his opinion or to challenge the interpretation he placed upon those facts.13. According to the passage, active learning may occur in .A. doing a chemical experimentB. listening to the teacher in classC. watching news program on TVD. reading scientific journals14. The game Rumor is mentioned in Paragraph 4 in order to tell readers that .A. playing games can make people more activeB. people tend to like telling lies when playing gamesC. people may have problems with their sense of hearingD. a message may be changed when being passed on15. What can be inferred from the text?A. Scholars and authors can’t be trusted.B. People like spreading rumors in daily life.C. Passive learning may not be reliable.D. Active learning is more important than passive learning.第二节:(共5小题,每题2分,满分10分)根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

AI was delighted to receive a copy of Marie Curie and her Daughters by Shelley Emling through my letter-boxa few weeks ago.Actually science has never really been my “thing”. At school I really struggled with physics and chemistry and was much happier in English Language or History classes. My mind is not structured enough to understand how science works, I’m a bit of a daydreamer and prefer using my imagination rather than learning facts, figures and formulae(公式). Of course I knew who Marie Curie was, her great achievements, her contribution to science, to medical advances and influence on the world, but other than that, I really had very little idea about her life.Shelley Emling has based this book on Marie Curie’s relationship with her two daughters, Irene and Eve. The book begins after the early death of Pierre Curie, when Marie is left to carry on the work that they started as a couple and to bring up her two small daughters alone. Emling has concentrated her book on the communication between Marie and her daughters. She was not an overly-protective mother, nor did she hesitate to spend time away from her daughters, yet this did not weaken their relationship. Marie was a caring and loving mother, who encouraged her daughters to become individuals, to achieve what they wanted to.Marie Curie and her husband made the decision not to profit from their discoveries. It was because of this that Marie had to depend on donations to carry out her work, and that she had to carry out tours of the States.I was very impressed by Emling’s writing style --- she has told the story of three extraordinary women who were way ahead of their time in an interesting and very readable manner.21. What is the writer good at?A. Physics and chemistry.B. Facts, figures and formulae.C. English and History.D. Daydreaming.22. What is Marie Curie like in the eyes of Irene and Eve?A. She makes a pet of them like babies.B. She avoids staying away from them.C. She encourages them to build their own characters.D. She wants to be involved in every area of their life.23. Why did Marie Curie tour the States?A. Because she meant to make herself a famous person.B. Because she wished to introduce the medical advances to people in the U. S. A.C. Because she needed money to bring up her two small daughters by herself.D. Because she decided to continue her work without money made from discoveries.24. The book written by Shelley Emling focuses on ________.A. the connection between Marie Curie and her daughtersB. the contributions Marie Curie made to the worldC. the research work of Marie Curie and her husbandD. the decision made by Marie Curie and her husbandBOver the past century, an alarming number of animals have become endangered or even extinct. Below are some animals whose numbers have been rapidly dropping in recent years.Panda BearOne of the biggest reasons contributing to the decline in the panda species is the destruction of its natural habitat. Farmers in China have gradually been claiming more and more of the land. As a result, pandas are forced to move away to places where it is hard to find bamboo for food.Green TurtleThe green sea turtle species has survived for several millions of years, so you migh t wonder why it’s only becoming endangered now. A major cause is the change in climate and temperature, which both affect the hatching rates of turtle eggs. Climate changes also cause violent weather and rising water levels to flood areas where turtles usually go to lay their eggs. Apart from this, oil spills and other poisonous pollution, as well as increased fishing activities can cause sickness, or even death to the green turtles.CheetahCheetahs are famous for being the fastest animal on land but even they can’t run from some of the larger threats that have harmed them. Like the panda bears, cheetahs have gradually been losing their natural homes due to humans claiming land and developing in those areas To make matters even worse, smaller animals move away when these areas are occupied, which means that the cheetah has less food! Don’t forget that other large animals, such as lions, are also fighting for any food that they can find, so occasionally young cheetahs end up as prey too.Indian ElephantElephants are extremely intelligent animals and also the largest mammals that live on land. Sadly, in Asia many elephants were killed so that people could remove their tusks to use as decorative objects. While this practice has been banned now, some people still illegally continue. Forests in India have also been steadily destroyed and elephants are sometimes killed when they end up on human territory.25. Humans’ increasing demand for land doesn’t affect the number of ________.A. Indian elephantsB. cheetahsC. panda bearsD. green turtles26. We can save the largest mammals living on land by ________.A. planting more bamboosB. helping them find matesC. stopping hunting themD. preventing poisonous pollution27. The living conditions of the fastest animal on land become worse because ________.A. forests have been destroyedB. they are threatened by humans and larger animalsC. people are fond of hunting wild animalsD. no law bans people from removing their tusksCI was in a taxi in Singapore last week and I couldn't help but notice the sticker attached to the back of the driver’s seat. In English and Chinese it read, “We accept Alipay.” It was a reminder that e-commerce in China is no longer just about how great brands break into the Chinese ma rket. It’s also about an important slice of China’s economy coming to you.If you are a brand manager or a salesman, you’re increasingly likely to find yourself fighting with the push of Chinese e-commerce companies in your home market. That’s for two reasons: China’s leadership in electronic payments and the continued rise in Chinese tourism. The result of this is that Chinese consumers are anincreasingly important factor in markets around the world.On the electronic payment front, there are some strong reasons to introduce the electronic payment systems Chinese consumers are already using. In China, the traditional wallet has been replaced by an electronic wallet on a smartphone. It’s common to make all of your payments for daily needs through that smart phone, using one of the two main electronic payment providers: WeChat Pay or Alipay.It’s not just easy to use. These two tech companies have the reach and customer base to push their payment systems beyond their original e-commerce mission. Noodle shops will take electronic payments, and even street musicians have QR for donations. Whether you are paying your electricity bill or seeing a doctor, your mobile phone can handle the payment.As a result, China is today the most cash-free of any of the world’s m ajor economies --- and that trend will coninue. Already, the numbers are staggering. According to a survey by Ipsos and Tencent, 14% of Chinese people do not carry any cash, while 26% hold less than RMB100 (less than $16) in their wallets, day to day. According to consulting firm iResearch. in 2016 China’s mobile payments hit $5.5 trillion, almost 50 times America’s $112 billion.28. The writer tells his experience in a taxi in Singapore to ________.A. introduce the topic of the textB. examine a problem in detailC. offer some solutions to an issueD. inform the finding of a new study29. The fact that Alipay is accepted overseas indicates that ________.A. mobile payment in china is becoming more and more popularB. Chinese economy is taking up a bigger share internationallyC. great brands find it harder to enter the Chinese marketD. the world market is determined by Chinese tourists30. The aim of paragraphs 3-4 is to ________.A. warn the cost and safety of cash-free paymentB. explain the reasons for the popularity of electronic paymentC. prove the common usage of mobile payment with numbersD. introduce the two main digital payment providers31. Which can best replace the underlined word “staggering” in the last paragraph?A. Worrying.B. Important.C. Ridiculous.D. Impressive.DI started my journey at the Cadillac House, drove out of the city and got on the 1-95 toward Washington, D.C.. It’s about a four-hour drive.As soon as I jumped on the highway, I sped up to about 70 miles per hour and entered standard cruise control.A small indicator on the instrument panel(仪表盘)showed the car was ready to engage self-driving mode. I pushed a button on the steering wheel to begin, initiating Super Cruise mode.A green light bar at the top of my steering wheel showed that Super Cruise was on. There were no shake, no sudden speed changes or anything like that. The car remained perfectly steady. It uses a combination of cameras, radar sensors, and GPS to find the center of the lane. The car found it like a train on a track.I had to admit that I was little worried about letting the car take over at first. I kept my hands near the wheel and my eyes locked on the road. After about ten minutes, I finally started to trust the car’s judgment. It soon became clear that it could easily drive itself in light traffic, braking when necessary and keeping a steady speed.Then we hit a bottleneck. There was a standstill traffic outside of Baltimore, and things could have easily gone wrong, but this is where Super Cruise really shined. The vehicle came to a complete stop to avoid crashing into traffic, then sped up when cars started moving again. It was impressive as hell, and something that sets the 2018 Cadillac CT6 apart from all competitors.I eventually turned off the highway and headed into Washington D.C.. To turn Super Cruise of, I simply hit the button on the steering wheel again. The green light at the top of the wheel turned off, and I took control of the car.The CT6 had no problem bringing me from New York to Washington, D.C, in Super Cruise mode practically al by itself. It makes me hopeful for a future where I’ll never need to touch a steering wheel again.32. What is the text mainly about?A. A report comparing different cars’ performance.B.
