While some people have tried going cold turkey(快速戒掉坏习惯) or even punishing themselves for their mobile phones, an app is made available in the UK that rewards people for staying away from their devices.The app, called Hold, was created by Norwegians Maths Mathisen, Florian Winder, and VinothVinaya while they are studying at Copenhagen's Business school, to help break fellow students' attachments to their devices.The three college students found that positive reinforcement(强化)was the best way of beating smartphone addiction. Hold allows students to collect points for staying off their devices between the hours of 7 am and 11 pm; they get 10 points for every 20 minutes.Through partnerships with universities and businesses, points can be used for discounts on everything from cinema tickets to Amazon goods to cafe food and drink. A half price cinema ticket, for example, costs 60 points, or 2 hours away from a phone. And a￡5($ 6.88)Amazon voucher (代金券) needs 1,000 points, or 33 hours off your smartphone.Students can also use their points to buy school books and stationery(文具), which are then donated to schools partnered with children's charity Unicef.Over 120, 000 people use the app in Scandinavia, including 40 percent of higher education students in Norway, where Hold first came onto market in February 2016. It's now available to students from over 170 universities in the UK.A 2017 University of Texas study claimed that merely placing a smartphone in someone's line of sight slowed down their productivity, response time, and reduced their grades. An earlier study from the London School of Economics found students who didn't use smartphones on school grounds saw their test scores increase 6. 4 percent.24. The app Hold was created mainly to .A. promote online sales of goodsB. earn discounts on goods or servicesC. find new uses of mobile phonesD. help students put down their smartphones25. How long should a student stay off the mobile phone to get 300 points?A. 6 hours.B. 10 hours.C. 15 hours.D. 30 hours.26. What is the main purpose of the text?A. To tell the story of Hold creationB. To present people's opinions of HoldC. To give a brief introduction of HoldD. To attract potential customers to Hold27. Where is the text most likely to appear?A. A newspaper advertisementB. A computer textbookC. A science magazineD. An official documentCThe dancer put a cardigan sweater over her leotard. Then she sat down to eat a sandwich. Cardigan, leotard, sandwich-where did these words come from? Did you know that each of them was a person's name? Words that come from proper names are called eponyms(名祖名词), and there are many eponyms in English.The sandwich, for example, was named for John Montagu, the Earl(伯爵)of Sandwich. He lived from 1718-1792. He loved to play cards and did not want to stop a game even to eat. By putting cold meat between two pieces of bread, he could eat while he played.The cardigan sweater was named for an officer in the British army. In the 1800s, James Thomas Brudenell, the Earl of Cardigan, spent his own money to buy special knitted(针织的)jackets for the men in his army. Knitted jackets with buttons soon came to be called cardigans.Jules Leotard was a French circus performer. In 1859, at the age of twenty-one, Leotard performed the first mid-air somersault(空翻). He became known as the "daring young man on the flying trapeze(吊杠)". Leotard invented a close-fitting one-piece suit to wear when he performed. Dancers still call their close-fitting garments leotards.Another person who gave her name to a style of clothing was Amelia Bloomer. Bloomer was the editor of a magazine called The Lily. American women in her day were expected to wear heavy skirts that dragged on the floor. In 1851, a young woman named Elizabeth Smith Miller introduced a new kind of clothing that was much easier to move around in. She wore a dress that came only to the knees. Under it she wore loose pants that fitted close at the ankles. Amelia Bloomer published a picture of the outfit(全套服装)in the Lily.She hoped women would adopt the new style. In news stories, reporters called the pants "bloomers". A hundred years later, people were still using the word.There are many other words that come from people's names. The diesel engine was named for its inventor, Rudolf Diesel. The word boycott comes from the name of an English landlord named Charles Boycott. Where each word came from is a story in itself. Who knows, maybe your name will become a word someday.28. Why did the Earl of Sandwich invent the "sandwich"?A. He found it boring to play cards.B. He preferred to eat meat and bread.C. He wanted to create a new kind of food.D. He could eat while playing cards without stopping the game.29. According to the text, what do "bloomers" refer to?A. Loose dressesB. Loose pants worn under a dressC. Dresses that came to the kneesD. Heavy skirts dragged on the floor30. What do the words cardigan, leotard and sandwich have in common?A. They are still in use today.B. They were first used in the army.C. They belong to the clothing category.D. They were invented during the same period.31. What is the best title for this passage?A. Ways to remember words.B. Words that come from people's names.C. The history of garments development.D. The unknown stories behind English words.DA team of researchers led by engineers from Penn State University has created the first material that heals itself in the presence of water, according to a study published in Scientific Reports. The material, inspired by squid(鱿鱼)teeth, could be used to repair instruments in water-filled environments that are difficult to access, such as the human body, or the bottom of the sea.The researchers had been studying squids' ring teeth, which are uniquely strong and can change state from liquid to solid in the presence of water. After testing ring teeth samples from several species of squid found all over the world, the researchers uncovered the genetic code for the proteins (蛋白质) that allow the teeth to heal themselves when broken. They then changed the genetic structure of bacteria to produce the proteins so they could conduct more tests.The researchers then made the proteins into a rubbery plastic by mixing them with a solvent(溶剂)and letting the solvent change into a gas. The resulting material combines a soft, shapeless part of the protein that gives the plastic its self-healing characteristics and a more structured sheet of amino acids(氨基酸)that give it a solid structure.To test the material's strength, the researchers cut it, and then put the two pieces back together with a drop of water. They found that the material healed best at 113 degrees Fahrenheit, a little warmer than the temperature of the human body, and with slight pressure from a metal tool. The material was just as strong, and able to hold the same amount of weight, before and after it was cut.Material that heals itself in the presence of water could expand the usability of biomedical implants(移植). Of course, this material is nowhere near ready for that application, and the researchers didn't test whether the constant presence of water degrades(降低)the plastic's ability to heal itself. The researchers next plan to study how their technology could help heal wounds.32. According to paragraph 3, the rubbery plastic become self-healing in combination with .A. amino acidsB. another kind of rubberC. a mixture of gasesD. some protein33. In paragraph 4, the researchers carried out a test to check whether the material .A. was fit for human bodyB. would melt at high temperaturesC. could be connected with the metalD. would recover its original strength after healing itself34. What is the author's attitude towards the self-healing material?A. Positive.B. Objective.C. Doubtful.D. Critical.35. What is the main idea of the text?A. A kind of self-healing teeth was made from squids' ring teeth.B. The genetic code of squids' special teeth has been uncovered.C. Super-strong material inspired by squid teeth is self-healing.D. A special rubbery plastic is used to replace squids' teeth.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。

AOne of the main points of traveling is to relax and take a break from your normal daily life. But the truth is, we’re not always free to do what we like when traveling to a foreign country, and a US tourist learned that the hard way.On Aug 12, the unnamed 41 -year-old man was beaten by a passerby after he was seen giving Nazi salutes (纳粹礼) again and again on a street in Dresden, Germany. Ever since the end of World War Ⅱ, Germany has strict laws forbidding the Nazi salute, as well as other symbols of Nazism.In fact, most countries have their own taboos (禁忌).If you plan to travel overseas, it’s best to get familiar with these taboos before you start touring local sites. Here are some examples.SingaporeYou can get fined for a lot of things in Singapore, including feeding birds, spitting (吐痰), smoking in public, not flushing (冲) a public toilet after you use it, and eating or drinking on buses or trains.JapanYou’re not supposed to wear your shoes in someone’s house, but you’re not supposed to take your shoes off outside the house either. Instead, there’s a small area inside the door called a “genkan” which is where your shoes should go. If you’re still not sure where that is, pay attention to what other people do and do the same.FranceFrench people don’t like it when you talk about money. It’s OK if you say that you want to quit a job because you aren’t paid enough money, bu t you shouldnever say the exact amount. Money is considered to be a “dirty” topic in France.1. Why was the US tourist was beaten in Germany?A. He was beaten by mistake.B. He was not welcome in Germany.C. He acted improperly in Germany.D. He quarraled with a local person.2. Which statement is true according to the passage?A. Eating or drinking on buses is acceptable in Singapore.B. You should take your shoes off outside the house in a Japanese house.C. You should keep your shoes on in a Japanese house.D. It is impolite to ask a Franceman’s salary.3. Which column is this passage most likely to be taken from in a newspaper?A. Campus LifeB. DiscoveryC. Science StudyD. Star Stories【答案】1. C 2. D 3. B【解析】文章讲述的是出国旅游需要注意的一些风俗习惯和礼节，列举了几个国家的禁忌。

ABenjamin West, the father of American painting, showed his talent for art when he was only six years of age. But he did not know about brushes before a visitor told him he needed one. In those days, a brush was made from camels’ hair. Ther e were no camels nearby. Benjamin decided that cats’ hair would work instead. He cut some fur from the family cat to make a brush.The brush did not last long. Soon Benjamin needed more fur. Before long, the cat began to look ragged (蓬乱). His father said that the cat must be sick. Benjamin was forced to admit what he had been doing.The cat’s lot was about to improve. That year, one of Benjamin’s cousins, Mr. Pennington, came to visit. He was impressed with Benjamin’s drawings. When he went home, he sent Benjamin a box of paint and some brushes. He also sent six engravings (版画) by an artist. These were the first pictures and first real paint and brushes Benjamin had ever seen. In 1747, when Benjamin was nine years old, Mr. Pennington returned for another visit. He was amazed at what Benjamin had done with his gift. He asked Benjamin’s parents if he might take the boy to Philadelphia for a visit.In the city, Mr. Pennington gave Benjamin materials for creating oil paintings.The boy began a landscape (风景) painting. Wiliams, a well-known painter, came to see him work. Wiliams was impressed with Benjamin and gave him two classic books on painting to take home. The books were long and dull. Benjamin could read only a little, having been a poor student. But he later said, “Those two books were my companions by day, and under my pillow at night.” While it is likely that he understood very little of the books, they were his introduction to classical paintings. The nine-year-old boy decided then that he would be an artist.21. What is the text mainly about?A. Benjamin’s visit to Philadelphia.B. Williams’influence on Benjamin.C. The beginning of Benjamin’s life as an artist.D. The friendship between Benjamin and Pennington.22. What does the underlined sentence in Paragraph 3 suggest?A. The cat would be closely watched.B. The cat would get some medical care.C. Benjamin would leave his home shortly.D. Benjamin would have real brushes soon.23. What did Pennington do to help Benjamin develop his talent?A. He took him to see painting exhibitions.B. He provided him with painting materials.C. He sent him to a school in Philadelphia.D. He taught him how to make engravings.24. Williams’ two books helped Benjamin to ________.A. master the use of paintsB. appreciate landscape paintingsC. get to know other paintersD. make up his mind to be a painterBWhen Steve Jobs was born on February 24, 1955, in San Francisco, California, his unmarried mother decided to put him for adoption because she wanted a girl. So in the middle of the night, his mother called a lawyer named Paul Jobs and said, “We have an unexpected baby boy; do you want him?” But his mother told his future parentsto promise that they would send Jobs to college. After Steve Jobs graduated from high school, he went to college but decided to drop out because it was so expensive that he had to sleep on the floor in his friends’ rooms.At 20, he and a friend(Steve Wozniak) started a company in a garage on April 1, 1976. Jobs named their company --- Apple in memory of a happy summer he had spent at an orchard (果园) in Oregon.After 10 years of hard time and failures, starting from two kids working in a garage, Apple computer eventually grew into a big company with over 4000 employees. At 30, Jobs, however, was fired from the company he co-founded. But after he had to leave the company, Apple was under heavy pressure from rival (对手) Microsoft and in 1996 posted billions of dollars in losses. Apple needed Steve Jobs and he was appointed as Apple’s CEO in 1997. Under his leadership, Apple returned to profitability and introduced new products such as the iPod, the iPhone and the iPad.Steve Jobs once said, “Sometimes life hits you in the head with a brick, Don’t lose faith. I’m convinced that the only thing that kept me going was that I loved what I did. You’ve got to find what you love. If you haven’t found it yet, keep looking.”25. Steve Jobs didn’t finish his college education because he_______.A. wanted to start a company.B. had financial problems.C. took no interest in his major.D. hated to share rooms with his friends.26. It can be inferred that Apple _______.A. was founded in OregonB. developed from a garageC. had a difficult beginningD. had a successful beginning27. What can we learn from what Steve Jobs said?A. Interest is the key to success.B. Hope helps us succeed.C. Attitude is everything.D. Courage goes with confidence.CIn ancient Egypt, a shopkeeper discovered that he could attract customers to his shop simply by making changes to its environment. Modern businesses have beenfollowing his lead, with more tactics (策略).One tactic involves where to display the goods. Foe example, stores place fruits and vegetables in the first section. They know that customers who buy the healthy food first will feel happy so that they will buy more junk food later in their trip. In department stores, the women’s shoe section is generally next to the women’s cosmetics (化妆品) section：while the shop assistant is going back to find the right size shoe, bored customers are likely to wander over and find some cosmetics they might want to try later.Besides, businesses seek to appeal to customers’ senses. Stores notice that the smell of baked goods encourages shopping, so they make their own bread each morning and then fan the bread smell into the store throughout the day. Music sells goods, too. Researchers in Britain found that when French music was played, sales of French wine went up.When it comes to the selling of houses, businesses also use highly rewarding tactics. They find that customers make decisions in the first few seconds upon walking in the door, and turn it into a business opportunity. A California builder designed the structure of its houses smartly. When entering the house, the customer would see the Pacific Ocean through the windows, and then the pool through an open stairway leading to the lower level. The instant view of water on both levels helped sell these $10 million houses.28.Why do stores usually display fruits and vegetables in the first section?A. To save customers time.B. To show they are high quality foods.C. To help sell junk food.D. To sell them at discount prices.29. According to Paragraph 3, which of the following encourages customers to buy?A. Opening the store early in the morning.B. Displaying British wines next to French ones.C. Inviting customers to play music.D. Filling the store with the smell of fresh bread.30. What is the California builder’s story intended to prove?A. The house structure is a key factor customers consider.B. The more costly the house is, the better it sells.C. An ocean view is much to the customers’ taste.D. A good first impression increases sales.31. What is the main purpose of the passage?A. To explain how businesses turn people into their customers.B. To introduces how businesses have grown from the past.C. To report researches on customer behavior.D. To show dishonest business practices.DGrown-ups are often surprised by how well they remember something they learned as children but have never practiced ever since. A man who has not had a chance to go swimming for years can still swim as well as ever when he gets back in the water. He can get on a bicycle after many years and still ride away. He can play catch and hit a ball as well as his son. A mother who has not thought about the words for years can teach her daughter the poem that begins “Twinkle, twinkle, little star” or remember the story of Cinderella or Goldilocks and the Three Bears.One explanation is the law of overlearning, which can be stated as follows: Once we have learned something, additional (额外的) learning trials increase the length of time we will remember it.In childhood we usually continue to practice such skills as swimming, bicycle riding, and playing baseball long after we have learned them. We continue to listen to and remind ourselves of words such as “Twinkle, twinkle, little star” and childhood tales such as Cinderella and Goldilocks. We not only learn but overlearn. The multiplication tables (乘法口诀表) are an exception (例外) to the general rule that we forget rather quickly the things that we learn in school, because they are another of the things we overlearn in childhood.The law of overlearning explains why cramming (突击学习) for an examination, though it may result in a passing grade, is not a satisfactory way to learn a college course. By cramming, a student may learn the subject well enough to get by on the examination, but he is likely soon to forget almost everything he learned. A littleoverlearning, on the other hand, is really necessary for one’s future development.32. What is the main idea of Paragraph 1?A. People remember well what they learned in childhood.B. Children have a better memory than grown-ups.C. Poem reading is a good way to learn words.D. Stories for children are easy to remember.33. The author explains the law of overlearning by _________.A. presenting research findingsB. setting down general rulesC. making a comparisonD. using examples34. According to the author, being able to use multiplication tables is ________ .A. a result of overlearningB. a special case of crammingC. a skill to deal with math problemsD. a basic step towards advanced studies35. What is the author’s opinion on cramming?A. It leads to failure in college exams.B. It’s helpful only in a limited way.C. It’s possible to result in poor memory.D. It increases students’learning interest.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填入空白处的最佳选项并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。
