Do note that there is one word more than you need.It is believed that in such a petitive age, art education is close to an unnecessary part in schools today. However, most of the 41 that a student would gain out of a basic education in art are almost unbelievable.There has been years of research 42 in the importance of art education and what art education goals are. The studies prove that what students gain out of an art education is almost43 , where any other course is concerned.A child whose parents are rich will naturally and very often be 44 to art, whether it is in the form of art pieces hanging at home or visits to fashionable art museums etc. This has again been seen over the years by researchers. At the same time, it has been noticed that exposure to art is something that is very 45 for children who belong to families with little money and they end up spending their childhood without forming any 46 with art.Art education goals in school therefore should be that 47 exposure to the wonders of art should be given to all students, whatever age group and whatever their family backgrounds are, because one never knows where talent might be 48 .However, art education goals have been slipping away from our education system for more twenty years now as people have begun to pay less importance to the 49 of art in their children’s lives. The reasons for this could be 50 budgets as well as stuffing of curriculum in classrooms s part of State mandates. Whatever these unfortunate reasons are, people have to once again realize art education goals and how they can actually be helping each student.III. Reading prehension (37%)Section A (15%)Directions: For each blank in the following passage there are four words or phrases marked A, B, C and D. Fill in each blank w ith the word or phrase that best fits the context.We often praise science. It explains the world and makes our lives 51 through technology. One of the most exciting scientific 52 is artificial intelligence (人工智能，AI). This is an area in which scientists are working on 53 machines that think like humans.54 , one of the most famous scientists has a very dark 55 about this type of technology.“The development of full artificial intelligence could spell the 56 of the human race,” said Professor Stephen Hawking to the BBC.Hawking is a well-known British physicist and the author of the bestselling science book A Brief History of Time. He gave his warning after 57 on the technology he uses to speak with. As Hawking 58 from a serious disease called ALS, he needs an AI puter to 59 . The puter learns how Hawking thinks and suggests the 60 he may want to use next.This is a basic type of AI, and is very useful, yet Hawking fears the possibility of creating technology that can 61 or surpass (超过) human intelligence. And it’s easy to 62 how terrible things may be. Many TV shows and films display big, killer machines that are far cleverer than us. “Humans, who are limited by slow biological evolution, couldn’t pete ,” said Ha wking.But not every scientist is 63 about AI technology. “I believe we will remain64 the technology for a long time,” said Rollo Carpenter, the UK-based creator of Cleverbot, a software program that remembers past conversations. “The65 of it tosolve many of the world’s problems will be realized.”In what direction do you think AI is heading? Should we be hopeful or fearful?51. A. richer B. easier C. busier D. worse52. A. fields B. models C. businesses D. lessons53. A. discovering B. delivering C. creating D. examining54. A. Therefore B.

A. potential B. talent C. performance D. responsibilitySection B (22%)Directions: 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)Tidying up the carMY younger daughter, Lauren, has a new car and she has managed to keep it spotlessly clean since she bought it in July.Lauren’s old car was messy. It was essentially a large garbage dump on wheels. I must admit that the apple doesn’tfall far from the tree because until I got my present car, all of my many automobiles had been messy too.The worst thing about her car was that it took on water every time it rained. No one could ever find the source of the leak, which created a pool on the floor of the front passenger side. It also created tides: When I drove uphill, the water rushed to the back. When I drove downhill, the water rushed to the front.Four years ago, when I turned 50, I got a new car. I turned over a new leaf and, for the first time since I got my driver’s license, cleaned up my act. I gave my old car, which contained old leaves, to my wife, who in turn gave her car to Lauren. It’s the one Lauren was driving – and filling with so much stuff that there was barely enough room in the back seat for her little dog, Maggie – until she got her new car.A few weeks ago, Lauren decided to go car shopping. She went to a Volkswagen dealership because she had her eye on a Jetta. She had her other eye on my wallet.Anyway, she saw a xx model, which was shown to her by an automotive associate named Anthony. He spent a lot of time with Lauren each of the three or four times she visited the dealership, let me test-drive the car when I went to see it, and didn’t put any pressure on any of us. In short, Anthony gave used car salesmen a good name.But he was no match for Lauren when it came to negotiating the price, which he lowered to what she said she could afford and not a penny more.So now, at 25, which is half the age I was when I cleaned up my act, Lauren has done the same. Her car has been clean for almost three months. Even the dog is impressed.The downside (负面) is that my wife’s car is messy. And shewants a new one, too.66.By saying “I must admit that the apple doesn’t fall far from the tree”, the author means that______.A. it’s mon for pe ople to keep their old automobiles m essyB. Lauren’s old car was messy because she didn’t like it at allC. he found it hard to figure out why Lauren’s old car was always messyD. the author used to treat his car the way Lauren treated her old car before he got his present one67.What was th e biggest problem with Lauren’s old car?A. There was something wrong with the front passenger side.B. Leaks in the car created a lot of problems on rainy days.C. It was always over-packed and had barely enough room in the back seat.D. Its engine didn’t work well, making it hard to drive uphill or downhill.68.Which adjective best describes the writer’s tone in the article?A. Excited.B. Critical.C. Humorous.D. Doubtful.（B）There have always been a lot of monly believed but false ideas about being fat and doing exercise. Some people believe that they can’t help putting on weight as they get older, while others hold that if they stop exercising, their muscles will turn into fat. Here are some more myths:I’ll nev er lose weight – I e from a fat familyWrong! While we can’t change the body type we are born with, we can’t blame our genes for making us fat. There’s plenty of evidence that fatness runs in families, and the main reason is that they share the same habit of eating too much and exercise too little.I am fat because I burn calories slowlyWrong! Fatness is not caused by a slow metabolism (新陈代谢). In fact, although fat people consume more energy than slim people, they also fail to realize how much they eat. Keeping a diary can help you work out your daily food intake more accurately.Exercise is boringWrong! Anything will bee boring if you do it repetitively. The key is to develop a balanced and varied program that’s fun as well as progressive. If you enjoy a Sunday walk, take a different route. If you do yoga, try a tai chi class. If you like swiping, set yourself a distance or time challenge.No pain, no gainWrong! Exercise is not meant to hurt. Indeed, pain is your body telling you something’s wrong, and continuing to exercise could lead to serious injury. You may experience mild disfort as you begin to exercise regularly, but this is your body adapting to the positive changes in your lifestyle and the aches should disappear relatively quickly. If they don’t, rest and seek medical advice.69.What does the author think about being fat?A. It is the family genes that make people fat.B. People are fat because they consume too little energy.C. A diary of exercise can prevent people from being fat.D. It is the c onsequence of people’s unbalanced l ifestyle.70.According to the author, how can we make exercise more interesting?A. By taking varied exercise.B. By choosing simple exercise.C. By doing regular exercise.D. By sticking to outdoor exercise.71.What is the aut hor’s opinion about “No pain, no gain” in exercising?A. Keeping fit is essentially a painful experience.B. Exercise should be stopped if continuous pain is felt.C. Pain in exercise is a precondition for reaching your goal.D. Getting used to pain leads to positive changes in your body.72.What is the purpose of the passage?A. To declare the importance of keeping fit.B. To clarify some misconceptions about fatness and exercise.C. To confirm what has long been believed about keeping fit.D. To explain some medical facts about being fat and doing exercise.（C）Experiences change usWANT to improve your life? Then do something awesome.According to a recent article in The Wall Street Journal, researchers have found that awe-inspiring experiences improve our prosocial behaviors, making us more generous and more humble. Awe-inspiring experiences make us more empathetic, allowi ng us to recognize another person’s emotional expressions better and respond with concern. And they make us more willing to engage with trust and connect with others.What kind of experiences can be called “awe-inspiring”? The examples mentioned by the journal include scuba diving, witnessing the birth of a child, watching a meteor (流星) shower, and visiting a forest. A man said he found it awe-inspiring to work with homeless people and witness their courage and kindness. Awe is an emotional response to something very large, says the article, and it challenges and expands our way of seeing the world.But the feeling of awe is felt differently by different individuals, and for different reasons. The deep blue ocean might inspire different feelings in a poet than in a fisherman, for example. According to an article in The Atlantic, a xx study from Stanford University investigated several aspects of awe and came to an interesting conclusion: the feeling of awe changes the way you think about time. The study says an awe-inspiring experience is a moment so overwhelming (无法抗拒的) that time seems to stand still.When you look at or experience something awesome, like looking at a waterfall or a sky filled with stars, your mind is fixed on the present moment. Time seems to slow down, the Stanford researchers concluded, making you feel like you have more of it to spare. This makes you feel more patient, less materialistic, and more willing to help others.Other researchers believe awe is powerful because it takes us out of our own heads. “Awe makes our individual identity less important and gets us to think about things bigger than ourselves,” Paul Piff, assistant professor of p sychology at the University of California, told The Wall Street Journal. Piff has found that many simple things in life inspire awe –listening to a piece of music you haven’t heard before, going on a nature hike, or going to a pop concert. All you need to do is start noticingand marveling (对……惊叹) at the world around you.73.The underlined word “empathetic” in Paragraph 2 is closest in meaning to ______.A. tolerantB. enthusiasticC. independentD. understanding74.The following things are mentioned as awe-inspiring experiences EXCEPT ______.A. scuba diving or witnessing the birth of a childB. watching a meteor shower or visiting a forestC. listening to your favorite music or going to a pop concertD. looking at a waterfall or going on a nature hike75.How do awe-inspiring experiences change the way people think about time and make them moreprosocial, according to the research?A. By changing their emotional response to something large.B. By making them more focused on the present moment.C. By making them realize that life is too short to waste.D. By inspiring them to face the challenges ahead of them.76.According to Paul Piff, ______.A. awe is beneficial for social harmonyB. awe often es in an unexpected wayC. only adventurous experiences inspire aweD. awe makes us more confident in ourselvesIV.

They have almost as much protein (蛋白质) as meat from a pig or cow and are low in fat. Eating insects is also very good for the environment since they need less land and water than larger animals.Marcel Dicke, who studies insects, explained in a talk how insects also produce more meat from the food they eat. For example, imagine a farmer feeds a cow 10 pounds of food. Those 10 pounds of food produce about 1 pound of m eat for people to eat. However, imagine the farmer gives a certain number of insects 10 pounds of food. Those 10 pounds of food produce 9 pounds of meat for people to eat!Eating more insects can also help people in poor areas. Many people can raise and sell insects, which can provide jobs and food.But insects will not replace (替代) animal meat very quickly. First, people in some countries would have to change how they think about eating insects. Many people in North America and Europe eat a lot of meat like beef and pork. But they do not traditionally eat insects. In fact, for many people in the west, eating insects sounds crazy! They believe insects are dirty and dangerous. Insects make them feel uncomfortable.Some people are trying to deal with this problem. For example, David George Gordon wrote a book named “The Eat-A-Bug Cookbook”, which tries to show people that insects can be delicious. Other insect experts travel around telling people about the benefits (好处) of eating insects. But they still have a lot of work to do.8. Eating insects _____.A. is not healthyB. makes people put on fatC. helps protect large animalsD. is environmentally friendly9.

We can infer from David and other insect experts that _____.A. people can make a lot of money from insectsB. insects should be better protectedC. people should eat more insectsD. it’s dangerous to eat insectsDToday，we are told，children don’t spend enough time in the fresh air．Many of them are addicted to a screen either on a computer or a TV—they seem to be living in a virtual (虚拟的)world．They have lost touch with nature．But now 400 organizations in the UK，from playgroups to the National Health Service，are encouraging children to have some“wild time”．They want kids to swap at least 30 minutes of watching TV or playing computer games for time playing outside．Activities such as building dens, climbing trees, rummaging for conkers and playing hide and seek are just some of the things kids can do. Even if they live in a city，they can go on adventures in the garden or the park．Children often need a helping hand from mum and dad．They need to be shown what to do and where to go．Andy Simpson from National Health Service says，“We want parents to see what this magical wonder product does for their kids’development，independence and creativity，by giving wild time a go”．So despite（尽管）the complicated world that young people grow up in now，it seems that going back to basics and experiencing“nature’s playground”is what modern children need．David Bond from Project Wild Thing says，“We need to make more space for wild time in children’s daily routine，freeing this generation of kids to have the sort of expe riences thatmany of us took for granted”．This might sound a bit old fashioned to you or maybe，like me，it’s made you think about sticking on your boots，getting outdoors and reliving your childhood. There’s no age limit on enjoying yourself!12. Children are encouraged to do the following activities exceptA．building dens B．climbing treesC．playing hide and seek D．watching TV13.

But it is true that kung fu is a big part of Chinese culture.Like most people from the West，I was first introduced to kung fu through Hong Kong action films.Stars like Bruce Lee and Jackie Chan made kung fu popular in the Western world.The flashy and impressive performances they gave in films like Rumble in the Bronx and Enter the Dragon made them household names in the U.S.and elsewhere.However，my own personal interest in kung fu was actually inspired by a hip hop group.Wu-Tang Clan，founded in the early 1990s in New York City，is one of the most influential hip hop groups in history.In their songs，they sometimes mention philosophical concepts that come from Wudang quan—a classic Chinese martial art（武术）from which they take their name—and Shaolin Temple.I was just a teenager when I first started listening to Wu-Tang Clan—little did I know that I would actually end up living in China later in my life!I myself do not practice kung fu.However，the concepts（理念）behind it are quite interesting to me.There is a Bruce Lee quote that I often think of when I’m struggling with challenges in life.“Be formless，shapeless，like water，”he once said.By this，he meant that you should be ready to adapt to and change your attitudes or beliefs when you face difficulties.I think this is a good way to deal with life.24.What does “a silly belief” in Paragraph 1 refer to?A.All Chinese people can do kung fu.B.China is most famous for its kung fu.C.Kung fu is a big part of Chinese culture.D.Many Westerners admire kung fu.25.What inspired the author’s interest in kung fu?A.Hong Kong action movies.B.A TV program about kung fu.C.Kung fu stars in Hollywood.D.A US hip hop group.26.What do we know about the Wu-Tang Clan?A.They have Chinese culture in their songs.B.They taught the author how to do Wudang quan.C.They performed Chinese martial arts in the U.S.D.They showed the author the way to live in China.27.What can we learn from the last paragraph?A.The author was sorry that he couldn’t do kung fu.B.The concepts of kung fu change over time.C.The spirit of kung fu helps the author overcome difficulties.D.Bruce Lee was the most popular martial arts master.CIn October，I told the eight-year-olds in the class I taught about my plan.“I’d like all of you to do extra jobs around the house to earn some money，”I said.“Then we’ll buy food for a dinner for someone who might not have a nice dinner otherwise.”I hoped th ey could experience a sense of their own power to make a difference.Early in the morning，they arrived in class with their hard-earned money.And now they couldn’t wait to go shopping.At last we headed toward the checkout（收银台），pushing a cart（购物车）filled with food and all the decorations.Then someone spotted（发现）a “necessity”that sent them cheering：a pot of chrysanthemums(菊花).It was more reasonable to use any extra money to buy food.After all，I pronounced，“You can’t eat flowers.”But the children insisted and placed the purple plant into the cart.An agency had given us the name and address of a needy grandmother who had lived alone for years.Soon we were arriving at her house.Between the laughing and those flowers，I wasn’t sure that any lesson about giving and receiving was getting through.We finally pulled up in front of a small house in the woods.A woman with a tired face came to the door to welcome us.As my little group carried the boxes of food in，she oohed and aahed—much to her visitors’pleasure.When Amy put the flowers on the counter，the woman seemed surprised.She was wishing it was a bag of flour，I thought.We returned to the car.As we fastened our seat belts（安全带），we could see the kitchen window.The woman inside waved goodbye，then turned and walked across the room，past the food，straight to the chrysanthemums.She put her face in the plant.When she raised her head，there was a smile on her face.The children were quiet.In that moment，they had seen for themselves the power to make another’s life better.28.The author gave the students the task in order to ________.A.help them focus on their family happinessB.let them experience their ability to help othersC.teach them the necessity of doing houseworkD.get them to know how to be financially independent29.What’s the author’s attitude to buying some flowers at first?A.Positive.B.Negative.C.Cautious.D.Enthusiastic.30.What did the children realize at the end of the visit?A.They could help improve others’life.B.They could make a living by working.C.It was necessary to do voluntary work.D.Plants and birds could help lonely people.31.What is the best title for the text?A.My Teaching CareerB.How to Help Poor PeopleC.The Importance of GivingD.A Happy Shopping ExperienceDWe’ve all e xperienced it. We invite a friend to dinner, only to learn that she is a Vegan. Vegan is someone who allows a diet that contains no animal meat, fish, eggs, dairy products, or any other food that comes from animals. They differ from vegetarians, who generally still eat dairy and eggs as part of their diets. Vegans also typically refuse to use any other products that come from animals, such as honey and leather jackets.Back in 2008, vegans only accounted for（占..比例）around 0.5 percent of the U.S. population, or about one million people. As of a survey taken in 2014, vegans now make up roughly 2.5 percent of the population. At least in the United States, women seem to be far bigger fans of veganism, making up around 79 percent of vegans.People on a vegan diet tend to be leaner. In a study of nearly 40,000 adults, meat eaters had the highest mean body mass index, or BML.Vegetarians were in the middle, and vegans had the lowest. Based on several studies from Finland, some scientists have suggested that vegan diets may be helpful in the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis(类风湿性关节炎). Vegans also appear to have lower rates of hypertension(高血压) than both meat eaters and vegetarians. Vegans also typically have lower cardio metabolic(心脏代谢) risks for conditions like heart disease or strokes.While there certainly may be some health advantages in going vegan, there seems to be some common deficiencies（缺陷）in the diet. One of these deficiencies is with the vitamin B-12. The ADA states that there are no natural plant foods that contain any significant amount of the vitamin. Vegans can still get it, but they need to take a vitamin or consume fortified foods like soy milk and certain breakfast cereals. Omega-3 fatty acids (欧米珈-3脂肪酸) are also very difficult to come by on a vegan diet, but this can be overcome through the consumption of algae(海藻) supplements. With vegans requiring supplementation to meet their nutritional needs, it supports the claim that veganism is unnatural, but that doesn’t necessarily mean its unhealthy.Many health organizations, including the ADA, state that well-planned vegan diets are healthy and nutritionally adequate, and may provide health benefits in the prevention and treatment of certain diseases.It seems like no matter what your dietary preferences are, a healthy lifestyle can be achieved on or off a vegan diet.32. Which example illustrates he/she is a vegan?A. His/Her diet is made up of large amounts of plant-based carbohydrates.B. He/She eats meat on special occasions, usually pork, as well as small amounts of fish on a weekly basis.C. He/She believes small amounts of animal products are vital to good health, and they insist on eating them every day.D. He/She fries French fries by animal oil.33. Which statement is TRUE according to the passage?A. Finland is the leading country in the world to study veganism.B. Vegetarians had the highest mean BMI.C. Vegan diets may be helpful in the treatment of cancer.D. The number of vegan in the U.S.is on the rise.34. Vitamin B-12 can be got from ________.A. various vegetablesB. soy milk and cerealsC. waterD. sunbath35. What is the writer's attitude towards going vegan?A. ObjectiveB. SubjectiveC. CriticalD.
