Instead, they can try taking a bath to fall asleep. They can also think about a quiet beach or a walk in the woods, 29 can make them relaxed and fall asleep more 30 __ (quick).第二节完形填空（共20 小题；每小题1.5 分，共30 分）Father’s ExampleAt the age of 16, my father sat beneath the street light to study until exhaustion kicked in. Sometimes, if he was lucky, the school guard would let him slip into the empty corridors to 31 the cold. Other nights, the guard shooed him away. The 32 of electricity in the home he shared with six family members was one of the easier roadblocks to overcome on his path to becoming a33 .Despite poor conditions, supporting the whole family after Grandpa’s death, and the 60% illiteracy（文盲）rate of his country, Pakistan, my father defeated the odds to establish his own clinic. However, he decided to 34 this comfortable lifestyle and move to America to 35 limitless opportunities for his family.1Because of his 36 , I strive to take advantage of every opportunity. I transferred from my familiar suburban middle school, where I stood out, to the 37 International Baccalaureate（IB）Diploma Program. Although I also made sacrifices, like my father, by switching schools, I have no38 . At my current high school, I have endless 39 to excel and interact with students from many backgrounds. Leaving my friends and the 40 of living five minutes from school was a small price to pay after I put my life into perspective. Changing schools gave me the 41 to pursue rigorous (严格的) courses. My academic future challenges and pushes me.For the rest of high school, I hope to keep my grades 42 , excel on standardized tests, and participate in summer programs.

I hope to choose a career that lets me do this. My motivation to become a doctor results from my desire to ease the 45 of others. Also, I realize that 46 is the groundwork of my future and that I must47 a solid foundation in it to achieve my goals.48 my father’s sisters, who married young and never graduated from high school, I enjoy my life in America with infinite possibilities, and I must work to 49 from all of them.

Five successful women delivered speeches on the topic “Bounc ing Back after Setbacks.” As I sat there listening to their many personal and professional mistakes and setbacks, I felt fortunate that I hadn’t made that many mistakes in my own life.Those women had lost thousands in investments, started companies but failed, sold companies that later ended up being worth millions, and lost partners in the name of business. Despite knowing that they had, in fact, bounced back and were again doing very well, I was starting to feel sorry for them.Then, as if someone whispered in my ear, I heard the words: “Don’t be so proud of yourself. You haven’t made any mistakes because you haven’t lived at all. Look how boring your life i s.” Whose voice was this, and how dare it speak to me like that?I think, for the first time, I heard my own heart speak. It shook me to my core, and it took all I had to keep from crying. I started thinking of the mistakes I had made. The voice was right. There weren’t many at all. I had followed a straight path for 38 years. I went to school, earned bachelor’s and master’s degrees with honors, and stayed at every job I’d had far longer than it was professionally beneficial for me to do so. In fact, at 38, I had only had three jobs. “The devil(魔鬼) you know is better than the one you don’t ” was my motto.A quick review of my life made me realize that it was the actions I hadn’t taken that I was suddenly regretting. I hadn’t studied abroad. I hadn’t risked love. In fact, I was perpetually single. I hadn’t started a business. I hadn’t traveled enough. I had sai d “no” far more t han “yes”.The voice that whispered to me continued to the New Year. It was like it laughed at me. The thought of turning forty frightened me. It’s one thing to be unhappy and unsettled in your twenties, and perhaps even in one’s thirties. But was I going to start a new decade with the same boredom? I needed something to pick me up, some activity I could look forward to.51. How did the author feel when first hearing stories from the 5 speakers?A. Regretful.B. Surprised.C. Lucky.D. Guilty.52. The author felt like crying during the conference because she realized .A. she hadn’t lived her life to the fullestB. she was deeply touched by the womenC. she had nothing to be proud of in her lifeD. she had made a lot of mistakes in her life53. What does the underlined sentence in Paragraph 4 probably mean?34A. The familiar devil is more frightening.B. Sayi ng “no” is better than saying “yes ”.C. It ’s better to stay within the comfort zone.D. You ’d better change your job more frequently. 54. From the passage, we can learn that the author .A. felt afraid of ageingB. traveled abroad a lotC. was married in her thirtiesD. decided to do something newBPrintable Tags Turn Everyday Objects into Smart DevicesEngineers have developed printable metal tags (标贴) that could be attached to everyday objects and turn them into smart Internet of Things devices.The metal tags are made from copper foil (铜箔) printed ontothin, flexible, paper-like materials to reflect WiFi signals. The tagswork essentially like “mirror s” that reflect radio signals from a WiFirouter. When a user ’s finger touches these “mirrors ”, it disturbs thereflected WiFi signals in such a way that can be remotely sensed bya WiFi receiver like a smartphone.The tags can be nailed onto objects that people touch every day, like water bottles, walls or doors. These objects then become smart and connected devices that can signal a WiFi device whenever a user interacts with them. The tags can also be shaped into thin keypads or smart home control panels that can be used to remotely operate WiFi-connected speakers and other Internet of Things devices.Xinyu Zhang, a professor of electrical and computer engineering, named t he technology LiveTag. He pictures people using LiveTag technology to track human interaction with everyday objects. For example, LiveTag could potentially be used to assess the recovery of patients who have suffered from stroke (中风). “When patients return home, they could use this technology to provide data based on how they interact with everyday objects at home, whether they are opening or closing doors in a normal way, or if they are able to pick up bottles of water, for example. The amount, intensity and frequency of their activities could be recorded and sent to their doctors to evaluate their recovery ,” said Zhang. “And this can all be done in the comfort of their own homes rather than having to keep going back to the clinic for frequent testi ng,” he added.The researchers note several limitations of the technology. LiveTag currently cannot work with a WiFi receiver further than one meter away, so researchers are working on improving the tag sensitivity and detection range. Ultimately, the team aims to develop a way to make the tags using normal paper and ink printing, which would make them cheaper to mass produce.55. When people touch a printable metal tag, .A. they are actually touching a mirrorB. the WiFi router will stop sending signalsC. the reflected WiFi signals will be disturbedD. their fingers can be sensed by a WiFi router56. LiveTag can probably be used to .A. precisely locate everyday objectsB. remotely control a WiFi-connected TVC. e asily block signals from WiFi devicesD. greatly improve one’s physical condition57. LiveTag helps stroke patients by .A. evaluating the process of their recoveryB. sending data of their activities to doctorsC. connecting their smartphones with doctor s’D. recording doctor s’ assessments of their recoveryCHow to Make Friends, According to ScienceFriendship is one of life’s most important features, and one too often taken for granted.The human desire for companionship may feel boundless, but research suggests that our social capital is finite—we can only handle a certain number of relationships at one time. Social scientists have used some creative approaches to measure the size of people’s social networks; these have returned estimates ranging from about 250 to about 5,500 people. Looking more specifically at friendship, a study using the exchange of Christmas cards to test closeness put the average person’s friend group at about 121 people. However vast our networks may be, our inner circle tends to be much smaller. The average American trusts only 10 to 20 people. Moreover, that number may be shrinking: From 1998 to 2017, the average number of trusted friends decreased from three to two. This is both sad and of important consequence, because people who have strong social relationships tend to live longer than those who don’t.So what should you do if your social life is lacking? Here the research is instructive. To begin with, don’t refuse to consider the humble acquaintance（交情）. Even interacting with people with whom one has weak social ties has a meaningful influence on well-being. Beyond that, building deeper friendships may be largely a matter of putting in time. A recent study out of the University of Kansas found that it takes about 50 hours of socializing to go from acquaintance to casual friend, an additional 40 hours to becom e a “real” friend, and a total of 200 hours to become a close friend.If that sounds like too much effort, renewing inactive social ties can be especially rewarding. Reconnected friends can quickly recapture the trust they previously built, while offering each other a dash of novelty（新奇）drawn from whatever they’ve been up to in the meantime. And if all else fails, you could start randomly to tell secrets to people you don’t know that well. Self-disclosure makes us5more likable, and as a bonus, we are more likely to favor those to whom we have revealed our soul.Longing for closeness and connection is common and everywhere, which suggests that most of us are stumbling（跌跌撞撞）through the world, expecting companionship that could be easily provided by the lonesome stumblers all around us. So set aside this article, turn to someone nearby, and try to make a friend.58. From Paragraph 2, we can know that .A. a strong social relationship can guarantee a long lifeB. real friendships are based on the exchange of presentsC. people’s inner circle is decreasing despite large social networksD. people’s social networks depend on their desire for companionship59. What does the author suggest to improve one’s social life?A. Sharing secrets with close friends.B. Choosing likable people as friends.C. Avoiding the humble acquaintance.D. Spending time for deeper friendships.60. What is the passage mainly about?A. The tips on how to develop friendship.B. The reasons for seeking companionship.C. The benefits brought by a good social life.D. The relationship between friendship and happiness.61. The author helps readers better understand his idea mainly by .A. using research resultsB. making comparisonsC. giving some examplesD. telling personal storiesDUnderstanding Chinese Culture: The Challenge to the WestLate last year, a New Zealand newspaper reported that China was sending 120 doctors to a Pacific island to assist with their community health. A positive action, one might think, but the focus of the story was to ask what China was doing in the Pacific, and how we have failed to the extent that we have allowed this to happen. What are the Chinese doing on “our patch”?In fact, the rise of China is to a certain degree promoted as a threat. The challenge to the West, then, is to improve an appreciation of what China is. How does China’s cultural heritage present a positive advantage to the world?To understand this, it is important to consider the foundations of Chinese culture and society. China has more than 5,000 years of uninterrupted cultural development. We at least need to go back 2,500 years to study Taoism, for its cultural and philosophical roots, and Confucius for his social philosophy and influence on society.Taoism provides us with many aspects of the special nature of Chinese culture and philosophy. The concept of yin and yang in Taoism, which brings us balance through the integration of opposites,6is well-known but not fully understood in the West. Chinese medicine, which tends to take a longer time to take effect, with a focus to work in harmony with the body, is to restore imbalance causing diseases rather than targeting only the specific symptom or problem area.Confucius’contribution to Chinese society also provides a difference to Western society. Eastern society places the community as the most important component of society. In Western society, it is the individual that is considered to be the unit of society, compatible with an objective analysis of issues.Considering a monkey, cow and banana, which is the odd one out? The vast majority of Chinese will choose the cow because the monkey eats the banana, which gives food to the monkey. Western people invariably choose the banana because they see the objective classification of the monkey and cow. The consideration of these two responses, and extension into deeper philosophical understanding, presents a major difference between Chinese and Western thought.Therefore, the challenge to the West is to embrace an alternative perspective on issues. It is time for Western media to seek a balance in reporting affairs, and critique(评判)the Western perspective .it is time for a Chinese voice to be heard in the west.62. The news report in the first paragraph _.A. tells a story of Chinese doctorsB. demonstrates the concern of the WestC. stresses the decline of Western cultureD. shows the medical development of China63. Why is Chinese medicine mentioned in the passage?A. To help better understand Taoism.B. To define the concept of yin and yang.C. To emphasize the contributions of Taoism.D. To express the author’s pride in Chinese culture.64. We can learn from the passage that .A. Taoism has a greater influence than ConfucianismB. Confucianism finds balance in integrating oppositesC. the West takes China’s cultural heritage as an advantageD. Eastern society considers community the essential unit of society65. The author’s purpose of writing the passage is to .A. warn the West of the threat of ChinaB. introduce to the West what China really isC. recommend the West to accept the rise of ChinaD. appeal to the West to have an objective attitude to China第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，共10 分）根据短文内容，从短文后的七个选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

In her other hand, she holds a paper carrier bag.I know this lady. It is not her first visit. She is the boy’s grandmother, and her daugh ter bought the house next door last October.Her daughter, Nicole, speaks fluent English. But she is now in Shanghai, and her parents are here with the little boy. Nicole has obviously told her mother that I am having heart surgery soon, so her mother has decided I need more nutrients. (56题)I know what is inside the bag—a thermos with hot soup and a stainless-steel container with rice, vegetables and either chicken, meat or shrimp, sometimes with a kind of pancake. This has become an almost-daily practice.(57题) Communication between us is somewhat affected by the fact that she doesn’t speak English and all I can say in Chinese is hello. Once, she brought an iPad as well as the food. She pointed to the screen, which displayed a message from her daughter telling me that her mother wanted to know if the food was all right and whether it was too salty. I am not used to iPads, so she indicated I should go with her to her house. Then, she handed the iPad to her husband and almost immediately I found myself looking at Nicole in Shanghai and discussing her mother’s cooking and salt intake. Instantly, tears welled in my eyes.“Your mother just can’t be bringing me meals like this all the time,” I insisted. “I can hardly do dishes in return.”“Oh, no, Lucy.” Nicole said. “Mum doesn’t like western food. Don’t worry about it; she has to cook for the three of them anyway, and she wants to do it.”The doorbell keeps ringing and there is the familiar brown paper carrier bag, handed smilingly to me.I am now working on some more Chinese words—it’s the least I can do after such a display of kindness.“Thank you” is, of course, the first one. Somehow, it seems inadequate. (58题)56. The elderly Chinese lady visits Lucy regularly because______.A. Lucy pays her to deliver foodB. Lucy likes cooking Chinese foodC. she cares about Lucy’s state of healthD. she wants to make friends with Lucy57. Nicole’s mum took an iPad to Lucy’s home for_________.A. displayingB. communicatingC. cookingD. chatting58. In this passage Lucy mainly expresses her ______.A. preference for the Chinese foodB. gratitude to the Chinese familyC. love of the advanced technologyD. affection for the Chinese languageBChinese Emoji (表情符号) Circles Globe (62题)“Funny”, a made-in-China emoji, seems to have recently moved beyond China. Now, it is more than an emoji, but a cultural expansion.●Reaching Global MarketsA series of “funny” emoji-based bolsters (抱枕) have attracted the attention of Japanese customers. Even if one bolster is more than three times as expensive as in China, it doesn’t kill their desires to buy it. One Japanese customer Miki said, “They are just so cute and I bought three bolsters at one time for my family. And every time I see them, my mood just brightens suddenly.” (59题)A Japanese netizen Kiro Kara said, “I think the emoji implies very complicated meanings. My dad will send it when he doesn’t agree with someone but he has to say someth ing and behave politely.”●Addition to Domestic Social MediaCompared with Japanese impressions of the “funny” emoji, Chinese netizens prefer to use the emoji to tease one another on social media.One commonly seen online comment is, “We strongly suggest st opping the usage of the emoji. Because every time other people send me the emoji, I feel very uncomfortable and consider myself as a fool.”Regarded as the most popular emoji, the “funny” emoji has received much attention since its release in 2013. In fact, the “funny” emoji is the updated version of its original one; “funny” has a smiley mouth, two eyebrows and a naughty look. All these characteristics present users a sense of satire (讽刺). (60题)●In Everyday Use AbroadIt’s not the first time the Chi nese emoji takes the world stage. Earlier this year, one emoji from the Chinese basketball celebrity Yao Ming has been spread through the Middle East region. In a city in southern Egypt, Yao’s smiling emoji has appeared frequently in local traffic signs to remind people the road ahead is one-way. Many locals do not know Yao Ming but are familiar with his emoji and nickname “Chinese Funny Face”.As a new online language, emojis have become a necessary part of people’s daily life, helping people express their views in a more vivid and precise way. (61题) Also, it can help foreigners learn about Chinese culture. But how to properly use “the fifth innovation in China” without hurtingothers and turn them into commercial advantages still needanswers.59. Why do the bolsters attract Miki’s attention?A. They are inexpensive.B. They helpreach an agreement.C. They help brighten the mood.D. They are helpful to express desire.60. According to the passage, which of the following is the lates t “funny” emoji?A. B. C. D.61. Emojis are so popular worldwide mainly because people use them to ______.A. express their views more vividlyB. present their sense of satire directlyC. imply very complicated meanings properlyD. tease one another on social media purposely62. The main purpose of the text is to ______.A. promote the emoji worldwideB. teach us how to use the emojiC. explain the meaning the emojiD. show us the popularity of the emojiCEvery year billions of pounds are spent on hair loss treatment. If we succeed in curing hair loss with 3D printed hair follicles(毛囊), it will be a huge revolution.L’Oreal, the cosmetics firm is partnering with a French bio-printing company called Poietis, which has developed a form of laser(激光) printing for cell-based objects. Poietis’ technique begins with the creation of a digital map that determines where living cells and other tissue components should be placed to create the desired biological structure. This involves how the cells are expected to grow over time. The file based on the digital map is then turned into instructions for the printing equipment, so that it can lay down tiny droplets made out of the cell-based "bio ink" one layer at a time. The printing process involves bouncing a pulsing laser off a mirror and through a lens, so that when it hits a ribbon(色带) containing the bio ink, a droplet of the matter falls into place. About 10,000 of these micro-droplets are created every second. (63题)It typically takes about 10 minutes to print a piece of skin 1cm wide by 0.5mm thick. However, since hair follicles are complex and consist of 15 different cells in a structure, they may take longer.Poietis is not the only company working on bio-printing, but most others use another way, which involves pushing a bio-ink through a nozzle(喷嘴), rather than lasers to build their tissue.Poietis suggests its technique puts less stress on the biological matter, meaning there is less risk of causing it damage. (64题)Alopecia UK—a charity that provides support and advice about hair loss—has mixed feelings about the development. “It is encouraging to know that (66题)companies such as L’Oreal are investing in technology that may help those with hair loss in the future,” s aid spokeswoman Amy Johnson.(66题) “However, we would suggest it’s still very early to be getting excited about what this potentially could mean for those with medical hair loss. At this point it is unclear as to whether this technology could benefit those with all types of hair loss.” (65题)“Also, if this new technology does lead to a treatment option, given the high costs of existing hair transplant procedures, how many people will be able to realistically afford any new technological advances that may become available? (65题) As with any other research and development into processes that may be able to help those with hair loss, we watch with great interest.”63. What does Paragraph 2 mainly tell us?A. How the printing process is carried out.B. Where the living cells should be placed.C. How long the cells are expected to grow.D. What the printing equipment is made up of.64. What does the underlined word “it” in Paragraph 4 refer to?A. hair follicleB. biological matterC. nozzleD. bio-ink65. The passage implies that the new technology may ______.A. meet some practical challengesB. help people with hair loss at presentC. offer solutions to all problems of hair lossD. cost a large sum of money to transplant hair66. What is Amy Joh nson’s attitude towards the new technology?A. Disapproving.B. Optimistic.C. Cautious.D. Negative.DThere is no doubt eCommerce is growing, and it will continue to grow. However, physical stores would not die as a result of the rise of eCommerce, at least not in the near future. The idea that eCommerce is taking over physical stores has already misguided many people. Physical stores are far from vanishing, and there are some solid reasons for it. (69题)The projections for online spending is optimistic with $150 billion expected to be spent in the coming three years, yet we are also expecting (67题) $300 billion in spending at physical stores in the same duration. Do you still think that physical-store shopping is too small to sustain the eCommerce blow?Even though consumers are staying away from physical stores that follow older concepts, yet we are seeing the rise of fresh concept stores all around the US. We are seeing innovative and attractive success stories of physical stores, ranging from clothes stores to restaurants to health spas. It would be easy to assume that this trend will continue.Indeed, many shopping malls are dying, yet there are still those shopping centers that areperforming well. You can see this for yourself by visiting shopping malls near you. What I want to emphasize here is that not all shopping centers are made equal, just like not all eCommerce retailers are made equal. Both shopping malls and eCommerce sites can lose business if they fail to maintain productivity through improvements and innovations. (68题) When you visit shopping centers that are serious about their business, you would see their shops and parking lots packed.On the other hand, even e-tailers like Amazon have experimented with pop-up shopping concepts. It is important to bear in mind that consumers prefer face-to-face interactions instead of online interactions during shopping, meaning that physical stores are going to stay there.Still, eCommerce retailers are seeing all of their excitement disappear as they settle the sales tax problem associated with e-tailing. As of now, five states of America have already imposed sales tax on purchases through eCommerce sites, and e-tailers in those states have already witnessed 6 to 12 percent decrease in sales.This reinforces the fact that physical stores are here to stay, and if you are still undervaluing their growth, you are omitting a huge chunk of the retail representation. (69题)67. The underlined word "projections" in Paragraph 2 probably means____.A. intentionsB. assessmentsC. performancesD. predictions68. What can we infer from the passage?A. E-tailers are more creative businesses.B. Fresh concepts help build good business.C. Fewer consumers will visit physical stores.D. Physical stores can’t stand the blow of eCommerce.69. What is the best title for this passage?A. Is Offline Spending Greater Than Online Spending?B. Online Stores V.S. Physical Stores—What’s the Difference?C. Will Physical Stores replace eCommerce in the Near Future？D. Does eCommerce Success Mean Physical Stores Will Disappear?70. Which of the following shows the development of the passage?第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，共10分）根据短文内容，从短文后的七个选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。
