ACambridge Open DaysThe Cambridge Open Days for potential applicants in Year 12 will be on 5 and 6 July (booking is essential)．All subjects will be offering course presentations and information stands.Tours and additional sessions may also be available in subject departments.Many colleges will be open all day for Cambridge Open Day visitors.However，some will be holding their own college­specific event, for which a separate booking with that college is required.College open daysDuring college open days you can pick up a range of information and get a sense of college life, but remember that visiting a particular college doesn't commit you to applying to that college.Department open daysDepartment open days focus on the specific course(s) in that faculty or department.You get to meet some lecturers, and see the library and other facilities.See the relevant course entry (P 44－117) for dates and contact the appropriate department to book a place.Subject masterclassesSubject masterclasses provide an opportunity to explore topics of interest beyond what's covered at A Level or IB Higher Level, and to experience typical undergraduate teaching at Cambridge.Each subject­specific masterclass involves two or three taster lectures, an overview of the admissions process and chance to speak to current undergraduates.CUSU Target SchemeThe Target Scheme is a student­run initiative by which current Cambridge undergraduates visit state schools or colleges across the country.The visits are intended to give information to Year 12 students and provide an opportunity for them to hear about the university from a current student's perspective.The Target Scheme can also offer sessions on post­A Level choices for younger students.21．What can students do on department open days?A．Experience college life.B．Explore their interests.C．Tour university facilities.D．Fill in college application forms. 22．Where can you get a brief outline of the admissions process?A．IB higher level examinations.B．Subject masterclasses.C．CUSU Target Scheme.D．State schools.23．What does CUSU Target Scheme feature?A．Booking in advance.B．Visiting school library.C．Taster lectures.D．A student­run project.BThough 3D printingtechnology has been available for over two decades，it has not gone mainstream as hoped because of the high cost and slow print speed.But that may change soon，thanks to German sportswear manufacturer Adidas.On December 15,2016，the company revealed Adidas 3D Runners，stylish sports sneakers featuring a 3D printed midsole (鞋底夹层) that provides athletes with the extra cushioning (软垫) needed for optimal performance.Unlike traditional midsoles，these are not a uniform foam (泡沫)，but web­like structures with varied density to take into account the impact areas of the foot.This means that the mesh (网眼) is thicker in the shoe's front and back，both of which hit the ground hard when the athlete runs.A3D­printed heel，put into the midsole，eliminates the need for traditional gluing or stitching (缝合)．The shoe upper，made of Primeknit，allows for increased flexibility，stability，and protection in the impact areas.Not surprisingly，the stylish，limited edition black training shoes that were only available for sale in New York City，London，and Tokyo and cost $333，were an instant hit and sold out within hours of their release.Though not affordable or available to the mass market，the radical shoes are an encouraging step in the right direction for more widespread use of the technology.While printing 3D objects may sound complicated，the process is relatively straightforward.Once the design is downloaded to a printer，a laser creates a layer of material，usually plastic or metal.Successive layers are deposited above one another and fused together until the product is complete.The technology can be used to build everything，from shoe soles to a microwave oven.There is currently even an effort underway to make a printer that is large enough to create the cement layers required to build a house.24．3D printed midsoles are different from ordinary ones in that ________.A．they are made of uniform foamB．they are held together with glueC．the meshes are larger than ordinary onesD．they are like webs with different density25．The underlined word “eliminate” in Paragraph 2 most probably means “________”．A．catch up with B．get related toC．be connected with D．get rid of26．From Paragraph 3 we can infer that ________.A．the shoes sold wellB．the shoes were relatively cheapC．the shoes can satisfy the need of the marketD．the company can mass produce the shoes 27．What does the last paragraph mainly tell us?A．What a 3D printer is.B．How a 3D printer works.C．How complicated the process is.D．What size a 3D printer is.COne thing that British and Chinese cultures share is a love for fine tea.Today，when we think of Western tea culture，we often think of the English and beautiful china tea cups.Afternoon teaPeople believe that an English lady，Anna，first introduced the idea of afternoon tea.In the 18th and 19th centuries，the English ate only two main meals each day：breakfast and a heavy supper that would last for several hours in the evening.As a result，people often got very hungry during the long wait between these two meals.To solve this problem，Anna came up with the clever idea of inviting some friends to join her for an afternoon meal between four and five o'clock.This meal included cakes and sandwiches.And tea was served to wash down the food.In order to make this afternoon meal important，fine china cups and plates and silver teapots，knives，forks and spoons were used.Soon，afternoon tea parties became popular social occasions.Today，afternoon tea parties continue to play an important part in the social life in modern Britain.Will you come for coffee?Coffee also plays an important role in British culture.People often use “Will you come for coffee？” to mean “Would you like to come to my home for a chat？”．Normally，several different drinks such as tea，hot chocolate or a soft drink like orange juice will be served as well as coffee，and you will be asked what you would like.However，you will not normally be offered wine at a “coffee” party.Coffeehouses and the London Stock ExchangeIn the 17th century London，coffeehouses were busy and noisyplaces.Businessmen and bankers went to coffeehouses to do their business，as well as to drink coffee.In fact，the London Stock Exchange (伦敦股票交易所) is believed to have started from these coffeehouses.28．Anna introduced the idea of drinking afternoon tea because she ________.A．enjoyed chatting with her friends at homeB．loved fine tea and beautiful china tea cupsC．found people felt hungry during the longwait between the two mealsD．wanted to share nice food with her friends29．If someone says to you “Will you come for coffee？”，you ________.A．will be offered coffee onlyB．will be asked what you would like to drink C．will be invited to take part in an afternoon tea partyD．will be asked to have a chat with him or her30．From the last paragraph we can see ________.A．a new business was started in coffeehouses B．coffeehouses are still used by businessmen and bankersC．businessmen and bankers went tocoffeehouses just for coffeeD．most people wouldn't like to go tocoffeehouses because of the noise 31．Which is the best title of the passage?A．British and Chinese CulturesB．English Tea and Coffee CultureC．Coffeehouses and BusinessD．The Beginning of Tea and CoffeeDSometimes we may find that every week there are a lot of new stories about how climate change is affecting the planet，or new plans to battle its effects.But the concept itself isn't new at all—in fact，scientists have been exploring questions about climate change for almost 200 years.The idea of “greenhouse gases” goes back to 1824，when Joseph Fourier wondered what was regulating the earth's temperature.Fourier concluded that the atmosphere must be responsible for containing the heat absorbed from the sun and described it as a box with a glass lid：As light shines through the glass，the inside gets warmer as the lid traps the heat.As Fourier's ideas spread，it came to be called “the greenhouse effect”．Scientists continued to study the greenhouse effect.Not until a Swedish chemist named Svante Arrhenius came along did scientists understand how global warming actuallyworks.After years of work，Arrhenius determined that the level of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere did in fact have a direct effect on global temperatures.Arrhenius found that CO2，and other gases trap radiation，which warms the atmosphere.Arrhenius was the first to suspect that burning coal could contribute to the greenhouse effect.But Arrhenius welcomed the warming effect on the planet.At a lecture later that year，Arrhenius noted that creatures of a warmer earth “might live under a milder sky and in less barren surroundings”．While Arrhenius' findings won him the 1903 Nobel Prize in chemistry，scientists kept debating whether the greenhouse effect was increasing until 1950，when researchers finally began to find strong data supporting it.By the end of the 1950s，American scientists had been sounding the alarm on the long­term consequences of climate change.Climate change research has come a long way since Fourier first described the greenhouse effect—still，maybe Arrhenius should have been more careful of what he wished for.32．What does the underlined word “it” inParagraph 2 refer to?A．The atmosphere.B．The greenhouse effect.C．The climate change.D．The heat from the sun.33．When did the scientists find evidence for the bad effect of global warming?A．In 1903. B．In 1950.C．200 years ago. D．By the end of 1950s.34．What's the author's attitude towards Arrhenius' wish?A．Positive. B．Indifferent.C．Supportive. D．Opposed. 35．What's the main idea of the text?A．Causes of climate change.B．Effects of greenhouse gases.C．Explorations on climate change. D．Findings about global warming.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。

It combines science fiction, horror, and coming-of-age elements in a beautiful but cruel story, which deals with the power of friendship, the pains of growing up, and self-sacrifice in the face of a cruel situation.The book centers on Tommy, Ruth, and Kathy, who tells the story. It describes their childhood at a strange boarding school called Hailsham House, where the children all have excellent medical care but a very low quality of life. The students and teachers also act very strangely. A frightening reality is revealed: The students are all “donors”—clones of other people—who were created to donate their organs once they grow up.The novel Never Let Me Go is not the only one by Sir Kazuo Ishiguro. He has also written six other novels, a number of short stories, four screenplays, and a handful of song lyrics. His moving words are highly regarded by both readers and critics. He has been nominated (提名) for the well-known Man Booker Prize four times, and he won in 1989 with his novel, The Remains of the Day. In 2017, he won the Nobel Prize in Literature.Though Ishiguro has written screenplays, he was not the one who adapted Never Let Me Go into a film. The film version was released in 2010 and still stayed true to the novel. Carey Mulligan, Keira Knightley, and Andrew Garfield played Kathy, Ruth, and Tommy. I was on the whole a success with critics and was well-liked at film festivals around the world. The movie version, however, could not live up to the book in the end. Although audiences generally praised the movie and the actors’ performances, the film ver sion did not reach the same level of success as the novel.4、What makes the boarding school strange?A. It is at a non-profit.B. It serves an immoral purpose.C. The students have physical problems.D. The students are all from poor families.5、What can we know about the film version of Never Let Me Go?A. It differed from the novel.B. It was a screenplay adapted by Ishiguro.C. It got much praise from the audience.D. It was more successful than the novel itself.6、Which of the following best describes Ishiguro as a writer?A. Humorous.B. Ambitious.C. Active.D. Productive.7、What style is the text?A. A news report.B. A book review.C. A children’s story.D. A diary entry.For breeding (繁殖) birds, timing is everything. Most species have just a narrow window to get the food they need to feed chicks. Now, after analyzing data that span from 1975 to 2017, a science team suggests that as the climate warms, birds are not only breeding earlier, but their breeding windows are also narrowed—some by as many as 4 to 5 days.On average, the beginnings and ends of the breeding periods are occurring earlier in the year. However, the ends are shifting back faster than the beginnings, resulting in an average breeding window that is 1.7 days shorter in 2017 than it was in 1975. During that same period, Finland’s average temperature rose by 0.8℃, suggesting many bird species are actively responding to changing temperatures, Hällfors, who led the team, says.changes,” she says. However, the shorter breeding windows mean more birds are breeding earlier in the season—a risky time for chicks’ survival, especially if the weather turns suddenly cold. In addition, because many late-season species are shifting their breeding windows up, that could mean more competition for food and nesting sites early on, leaving some chicks to go hungry.Lucyna Halupka, an ecologist at the University of Wroclaw, calls the study “a very important paper” because it’s one of the few ways to measure the breeding period duration. For 2 decades, she says, many scientists studying birds and climate change have looked only at the earliest, median (中间的), or mean laying dates for specific groups of birds. However, she reminds that because the study is limited to Finland, the findings may not apply universally; future studies should examine how breeding seasons move in other regions where the effect of climate change is different. They should also try to determine how shifting breeding windows affect population sizes, she says.8、What did the scientists find?A. The weather in Finland becomes warmer.B. It is becoming more difficult for birds to breed.C. The birds in Finland spend fewer days breeding.D. There isn’t enough food for some chicks in Finland.9、What does the underlined word “optimum” in paragraph 3 mean?A. Exact.B. Proper.C. Changeable.D. Dangerous.10、What is the significance of the study according to Lucyna?A. It is carried out in a different way.B. It is helpful for people to protect the birds.C. It opens a window for people to learn about these birds.D. It demonstrates the living situation of the birds on earth.11、What is the best title for the text?A. Scientists Revealed the Secrets of Bird s’ BreedingB. Scientists Take Steps to Protect the Birds in the WildC. Birds Play a Role in Fighting Against Global WarmingD. Birds’ Breeding Windows Are Affected by Global WarmingAfter limiting the screen time, the minors in China are prohibited against getting tattooed (文身) now.According to the guideline, which came out on June 6th, 2022, any enterprise, organization and individuals should be stopped from providing inking services. The guideline also prohibits “encouraging or forcing” children into g etting tattoos, while encouraging parents to advise their children against getting tattooed.“All agencies that provide tattooing services should clearly display signs refusing minors, and ask customers to show their IDs if it’s hard to judge their age based on their appearance,” the guideline said.Tattoo culture has gained popularity especially among the country’s youth in recent years. They regard it as a form of fashion and self expression. However, tattoos haven’t been widely accepted in the society and they might have a bad influence on people in some situations.Amanla, a tattoo artist in the southwestern Yunnan Province, said he agreed with the ban. He said, “Protection is necessary. But more deeply, it’s also disrespectful for people to do something merely to be cool without knowing what they really want or understanding the pattern being drawn on their body.”In recent years, several regions have issued local regulations banning tattoo services for children. In June of last year, a court in the eastern Jiangsu Province ordered a tattoo shop to stop tattooing minors after being accused of using ink containing harmful pigments (色素).Yuan Ningning, a legal advisor specializing in family education law, said that the working guideline has cleared up the responsibilities between different regulators and called for more education and specific punishments.“The central government has already formed a consensus (共识),” Yuan said. “But it takes a learning process among the local authorities for the guideline to be effective. That’s the first and a very crucial step.”12、What should the tattoo shops do according to the regulation?A. Refuse to serve the minors.B. Offer quality service for teenagers.C. Ask the minors’ parents for advice.D. Keep the minors safe while tattooing.13、What does paragraph 4 tell us about tattoo?A. Tattooing has a long history in China.B. The society has been influenced by tattooing.C. Young people are more interested in tattooing.D. Tattooing helps people do their work better.14、Which of the following might Amanla agree with?A. Tattoos are not for everyone.B. Tattooing for minors must be punished.C. We should learn about tattoos before getting one.D. It is not easy for the regulation to be put into practice.15、What can be inferred about the guideline?A. Those who break the rules will be punished.B. It has got wide recognition among the public.C. Educators play a key role in carrying out the rules.D. It is a long way for the guideline to make a difference.二、七选五16、When I was young, I was a terribly shy girl in regular classes.

She applied and was invited to join in. But, 31________ she was placed in the control group rather than the treatment one that would try out the new 32________a virtual reality (VR) program for acrophobia (the medical term for a fear of heights).The ones in the treatment group--44 in all---were given five or six 30-minute sessions (时间段）of the VR treatment over the 33________ of two weeks.The results, which are being published by The Lancet Psychiatry, were significant.

Reading ComprehensionSection ADirections: For each blank in the following passage there are four words or phrases marked A, B, C and D. Fill in each blank with the word or phrase that best fits the context.Many people around the world have seen Danny Boyle’s movie Trainspotting based on Irvine Welsh’s novel of the same name and starring Ewan McGregor, but how many of us can really claim to 41________ what train-spotting is all about? Now this is not considered the coolest hobby in town and the word “train-spotter”, in Britain has become similar in meaning to "geek" or "nerd (蠢货或书呆子),but is this 42________ really deserved?First of all, let’s 43________ train-spotting. There are said to be some 100,000 train-spotters in the UK. What do they do? Well, exactly as the title suggests, they spot trains, that is, they stand in train stations, look at the serial numbers of the trains that leave and arrive and write them down. The 44________ is to have seen every train in the country.Being keen on railways and trains is not a 45________ hobby and dates back to 1804 when Richard Trevithick built the first steam locomotive, which pulled a load of ten tons of iron, 70 men and five wagons along a nine-mile stretch of track in two hours. As the number of trains grew and they got faster and faster, so did the interest in them grow. Is this any 46________ than people who love cars?So, what do you need to be a train-spotter? Well, it’s a wonderfully 47________ pastime—all you really need is a pen or pencil and a notebook to write down the train numbers. The modem train-spotter may also carry binoculars(望远镜)and a video camera, but for the purists these are 48________.It’s interesting to note that despite the stigma(污名）of train-spotting, there have been famous railway 49________ in history, such as the poet WH Auden, the comedian Michael Palin and, of course, Alfred Hitchcock, who was a fan of trains and featured them regularly in his films, especially The 39 Steps. There is evidence, too, that being a train-spotter is not necessarily a(n) 50________ British hobby.One glance at the US train sites should be enough to 51________ you that transatlantic train-spotters are alive and well. In America, they try to call rail fans ‘trainfans' and talk of ‘trainfanning’.. Don’t l et this 52________you—these people are train-spotters and there are a lot of them. Each month, two million pages are visited on the website .So call them ‘nerds' or ‘geeks’, but they are here to stay and this is 53_________ not a hobby that is violent or dangerous in any way, nor does it cause any kind of damage to the environment. What do you think is healthier—sitting in front of a TV screen and 54________ those who do something that doesn’t interest you? Or going out and finding and followin g your 55 ________whatever that happens to be? I know what I think.41. A. discover B. know C. wonder D. consider42.

A. hurt B. seize C. oppose D. fool53. A. formerly B. similarly C. astonishingly D. certainly54. A. criticizing B. envying C. training D. imitating55. A. suggestion B. step C. passion D. modelSection BDirections: Read the following three passages. Each passage is followed by several questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage you have just read.(A)The number of devices you can talk to is multiplying—first it was your phone, then your car,and now you can boss around your appliances. Children are likely to grow up thinking everything is sentient, or at least interactive: One app developer told The Washington Post that after interacting with Amazon’s Alexa, his kid started talking to coasters. But even without chatty gadgets, research suggests that under certain circumstances, people anthropomorphize everyday products.We personify things because we’re lonely. In one experiment, people who reported feeling isolated were more likely than others to give free will and consciousness to various devices. In turn, feeling attached to objects can reduce loneliness. When college students were reminded of a time they’d been excluded socially, they made up by lying about their number of friends on social networks—unless they were first given tasks that caused them to interact with their phone as if it had human qualities. The phone apparently stood in for real friends.When we personify products, they become harder to cast off. After being asked to evaluate their car's personality, people were less likely to say they intended to replace it soon. And anthropomorphizing objects is associated with a tendency to accumulate.So how do people assign characteristics to an object? In part, we rely on looks. On humans, wide faces are associated with dominance. Similarly, people rated cars, clocks, and watches with wide faces as more dominant-looking than narrow-faced ones, and preferred them—especially in competitive situations. An analysis of car sales in Germany found that cars with grilles(格栅) that were upturned like smiles and headlights that were slanted（倾斜的）like narrowed eyes sold best. The purchasers saw these features as increasing a car’s friendliness and aggressiveness, respectively. It’s little wonder so many companies use mascots（吉祥物）to bring brands to life. An analysis of 1,151 brand characters found symbols that were human or humanlike to be common.Personifying products and brands can backfire, however. When a coffee maker was anthropomorphized in an ad (“I am Aroma” versus just “Aroma”)，consumers felt betrayed by increases in its price. Now that speech-enabled coffee makers are on the market, maybe the machines can sweet-talk their way back into consumers, hearts.56. The word “anthropomorphize”（in paragraph 1) most probably means_________.A. think highly of somethingB. find a better way to rate somethingC. see something as humansD. use something as often as possible57. For the college students, the interaction with the phone served as a reminder that .A. they were not lonelyC. they needed real friendsB. the phone had human qualitiesD. the phone was not always necessary58. The writer mentions an analysis of car sales in Germany in order to_________.A. show that friendliness is better received than aggressivenessB. highlight that a symbol looking like a smile appeals more to peopleC. explain why so many companies use mascots to promote their brandsD. illustrate that people will judge something according to its appearance59. What can be inferred from the last paragraph?A. Consumers should know more about a product before it is on the market.B. Products with a mascot are more likely to win consumers' hearts.C. Increases in a produces price may be accepted with a good ad.D. The personification of a product may not always work.(B)University Shotokan Karate ClubLearn Karate—self-defense and fitnessThe university karate club was founded in 1962. All grades from beginners to advanced are welcome. The classes are suitable for both men and women and several women have obtained their black belt.TUESDAY AND THURSDAY6.00—8.00 p.m.WEA VER HOUSE GYMFIRST LESSON FREEHardly any of us have experienced real violence, but, over the last few years, attacks on innocent people have increased. Each of us has some ability to defend ourselves, and by learning a form of self-defence, we are not only increasing that ability, but also doing something to build our own sense of respect. Karate will show you a lot of simple and effective techniques to protect yourself, giving you increase self-confidence.Far too many people think martial arts (武术) are about violence. Martial arts training is based on a lot of respect, self-discipline, self-control and non-violence. We learn basic etiquette, courtesy and tolerance. Good manners and consideration for others are expected at all times.Karate is the practice of blocking and striking techniques for the purpose of self-defence, health and self-development. Karate exercises the entire body. Techniques are practised on both sides of the body, therefore muscle imbalances do not occur and the strength, coordination, flexibility and agility of both sides of the body are improved. Regular training in Karate improves the body’s physical endurance and flexibility. It also helps concentration and produces the mental calm and assurance that come from knowing we can defend ourselves.Karate has many benefits but they do not come easily or overnight. Training requires ongoing commitment and hard work. Some of you will give up, but a few of you will get your black belt.60. The passage is mainly intended to_________.A. tell readers the benefits of KarateB. attract readers to join the clubC. encourage people to get their black beltD. correct people’s misunderstand of Karate61. What can be learned about University Shotokan Karate Club?A. More men than women have been its members.B. It tests members to see what level they are at.C. Members don’t need to pay for the lessons.D. It offers 4 hours of lessons every week.62. According to the passage, which of the following statements about Karate is true?A. It cultivates people’s respect for themselves as well as for others.B. It involves people’s arm muscles more than body musclesC. It makes people healthy physically instead of mentally.D. It focuses as much on self-defence as on attack.(C)In the classic novel The Day of the Triffids, giant plants terrorise humanity. Triffids can walk and are equipped with poisonous stingers, but their real power lies in their ability to communicate and so plot against us.It sounds far-fetched, but since John Wyndham’s book was published in 1951, one aspect of this fiction has proved to be science fact: plants do talk to one another. It has long been known that insects such as pollinators (传粉者）and pests can distinguish between plants by the chemicals they release. What’s new is the idea that plants use their emissions to talk among themselves. “Plants release chemicals into the atmosphere—these can be viewed as a language in the sense that a plant releasing the chemicals can be viewed as ‘speaking’ and the plant receiving them as ‘listening’ and then responding,” says chemical ecologist James Blande at the University of Eastern Finland.Now we are discovering that air pollution can disrupt these communications. In one study, Blande and his colleagues put individual bumblebees into a box containing paper flowers resembling those of black mustard (芥末). When the scientists injected the scent of real black mustard flowers that grew in either a clean or polluted atmosphere the bumblebees’ re actions were unequivocal: they were immediately attracted to the unpolluted scent, while that from polluted air left them flying around aimlessly.It’s not just the clarity of plant language that gets disrupted，the “loudness” is affected, too. To find out how much things have changed since pre-industrial times, Jose Fuentes at the University of Virginia and his colleagues made a computer model that included historic air pollution levels. It revealed that scents(气味)produced by flowers that could once be picked up kilometres away now travel as little as 200 metres.Even between clean and dirty environments today, a similar reduction in signal can be seen. Take lima beans. When one plant is attacked by spider mites, it emits chemical signals that make others nearby produce more sugary nectar. This, in turn, attracts predatory mites, which eat the attackers. If the atmosphere is clean, Blande found, the beans easily communicate with neighbours growing 70 centimetres away. But in polluted conditions, their warning cries can’t be heard more than 20 centimetres away.63. The writer mentions the novel The Day of the Triffids in order to_________.A. show how far-fetched the novel isB. introduce the topic of the passageC. warn readers of a possible dangerD. illustrate a new discovery of plants64. The word “unequivocal”（in paragraph 4) is closest in meaning to_________.A. familiarB. unpredictableC. differentD. inter-related65. What can be inferred from the passage?A. The scent of plants can’t travel in a shorter distance in polluted airB. Classic novels are usually based on some proved scientific facts.C. It was in pre-industrial times that pollution came into existence.D. Warning cries made by insects are getting softer and softer.66. What is the passage mainly about?A. Chemical signals vary with the age of plants.B. Pollinators and insects either damage or benefit plants.C. Pollution has an impact on the communication between plants.D. Plants communicate with each other by means of what they emit.Section CDirections: Complete the following passage by using the sentences given below. Each sentence can be used only once. Note that there are two more sentences than you need.We may have 750 friends online，but we’re lonelyMy phone and my laptop are within constant touching distance, whether Tm eating, drinking, in the shower, or watching the football. Before I get up every morning, I check my email, my texts and my Twitter feed. By the time I’ve got out of the shower, it’s time to do it again. I have a constant drip-drop of information from any of the 750 online friends and followers that I associate with. ______67______. How does a 28-year-old man get like this?______68______ In a recent survey of young people, 60 percent said they found it difficult to make friends ‘in real life’ compared with online. I’m way beyond being an awkward teen, but I am wired up most of the day, as are most of my friends. I go to parties, pubs and dinners, but I am there only in spirit. Far from bringing me closer to people, my phone drives me further away.I feel isolated. During working hours, I chatter away on social-networking sites, delaying tasks. I am in a constant state of distraction. Paradoxically（矛盾地), I no longer see the verypeople I want to see becaus e I have been ‘talking’ to them all day.Last weekend, I threw a dinner party. The moment that the food arrived, one best friend aged 26 got up to make a phone call while my other best friend, 27, sat through dinner checking Twitter for football scores. _______69_____ Social networking dominates.The terrifying thing is that none of us can go cold turkey. ______70______If you’re an alcoholic, you can avoid alcohol, but how do I avoid the internet or my phone? I need it to do my job, because my employers demand that they can contact me at any time.That's the problem with social networking. You are hardwired in, but you are always the same cool distance apart.IV. Summary WritingDirections: Read the following passage. Summarize in no more than 60 words the main idea of the passage and how it is illustrated. Use your own words as far as possible.Is Alan Sugar a Role Model?In this paper I would like to discuss the question 4Is Alan Sugar a role model for people going into business?9 There are certainly reaso ns to answer 'yes’ or ‘no’ to this question.Alan Sugar has definitely been a successful businessman and celebrity. He left school at 16 with no qualifications and started his own business selling electrical goods out of the back of a van. He now has an estimated fortune of £830 million and is the 84th richest man in the UK. His Amstrad CPC 464 was one of the first home computers and by the end of the 1980s Amstrad had a stock market value of £1.25 billion. In the nineties and later he started buying and selling companies such as Sinclair, Betacom, Viglen and eventually sold Amstrad itself, at a profit. He was also Chairman of Tottenham Hotspur Football Club. He has now become a TV celebrity with his own TV series The Apprentice', which is a reality TV show where a group of young business people try to win an important position in Alan Sugar’s company.On the other hand, Alan Sugar has, for a long time, not been very popular with many people. He has a reputation for being a rude and insensitive man. He has tr eated the contestants on ‘The Apprentice’ badly. In fact Alan Sugar is best known for saying ‘You’re fired!’ to someone in every episode. Many business people have also said that. ‘The Apprentice’ actually shows you how not to run a business, rather than how to run one. Even his business skills have been questioned. Amstrad was very unsuccessful in the nineties and many people blame Sugar personally for that failure.In conclusion, Alan Sugar is certainly not an ideal role model. However, in my opinion Alan Sugar is a role model because he started with nothing and finished a millionaire. Such a story surely has lessons for all of us.V.

Number sense is not the ability to count. It is the ability to recognize a __1__ in number. Human beings are born with this ability.__2__，experiments show that many animals are, too.For example, many birds have good number sense. If a nest has four eggs and you remove one, the bird will not __3__.However, if you remove two, the bird __4__ leaves. This means that the bird knows the __5__ between two and three.Another interesting experiment showed a bird's __6__ number sense. A man was trying to take a photo of a crow (乌鸦) that had a nest in a tower, but the crow always left when she saw him coming. The bird did not __7__ until the man left the tower. The man had an __8__. He took another man with him to the tower. One man left and the other stayed, but they did not __9__ the bird.The crow stayed away until the second man left, too. The experiment was __10__ with three men and then with four men. But the crow did not return to the nest until all the men were __11__.It was not until five men went into the tower and only four left that they were __12__ able to fool the crow.How good is a human's number sense? It's not very good. For example, babies about fourteen months old almost always notice if something is taken away from a __13__ group.But when the number goes beyond three or four, the children are __14__ fooled.It seems that number sense is something we have in common with many animals in this world, and that our human __15__ is not much better than a crow's.C．change D．trend解析：选C下文描述的多个试验均与数字改变有关，由此可以推断本文中的number sense指的是对数字变化的感知能力或敏感性，因此选择change。
