television at the age of 21．Tim started working on early computers．At that time，they were much bigger than now．He worked in England then Switzerland．Tim was really interested in two things，computers and how the brain works．How could the brain connect so many facts so quickly？He had to work with people all over the world．They shared information about computers．It was hard to manage all the information．He answered the same questions again and again．took a lot of time．It was even difficult for computersin the same office in Switzerland to share information．Tim also forgot things easily．Could a computer work like a brain？Could it"talk"to other computers？There was an Internet already but it was difficult to use．In 1989，Tim Berners﹣Lee invented the World Wide Web（WWW）all by himself．This had a special language that helped computers talk to each other on the Internet．When people wanted to share information with others，they used the World Wide Web．The Internet grew quickly

opened in Manchester in1852．It's first librarian was a man called Edward Edwards，Edwards attended the library's opening ceremony and two famous writers called Charles Dickens and William Thackeray were there too．How to Join aLibraryTo join a library，go to your local library and fill in a form．you'll receive a library card which is needed when using library services．Mobile LibrariesNot everyone can get a library．Some people live far away from towns and cities．Other people find it difficult to go out because they have an illness or a disability．Thanks to mobile libraries，these people can still borrow books．Unlike most libraries，which store books in buildings，mobile libraries usually keep their books in a mini﹣bus．The back of the mini﹣bus has shelves for the books，and it is big enough for borrowers to step inside and look around．A driver takes the mini ﹣bus to a certain place at a certain time，so people know when to expect it．They can then return their books and borrow some more．All Aboard the LibraryA schoo l in London didn't have space for a library inside the building．However，everybody agreed that it was still important to have a school library．So the head ofthe

speaking on the phone，but they can hear you．So，the wayyou speak is especially important．In fact，researchers have calculated that 80% of communication over the phone is through your tone of voice；and only 20% is from the words you use．Here are our top tips on how to speak over the phone．1．Facial ExpressionsYour facial expression can influence your voice．For example，if you smile，your voice will sound warm and friendly，just the opposite，if you have an angry look on your face，it can make you sound unpleasant．2．VolumeIf you speak too loudly，you could sound angry．And if you speak too softly，it'll be difficult to hear you．So，speak loudly enough to be heard clearly，but not so loud that you're shouting．3．PaceThe pace of your voice is how quickly you speak．And this can show how you feel．For example，an angry person might speak faster than normal．Or a downhearted person might speak very slowly．Try speaking a little more slowly than normal．This will make you sound confident，and it'll make it easier for the other person to understand you．4．GesturesGesturing can influence the tone of your voice．When you gesture，you bring more air into the lungs，which can make your voice sound warmer．Gestures are also useful to help you stress the right words or even find the words you need．The best thing about gesturing during a phone call is that no one can see what you're doing，so you can gesture as wildly as you like!5．MovementIf you're feeling nervous，stand up and move around．It will reduce the nervousness in your body and help your voice to sound more confident．6．Pauses （停顿）Using pauses every now and then can help you to slow down．This will make you sound more confident and in control．Also，if you pause after giving some new information，it'll give the other person time to understand it．At the same time，listen to how the other person uses pauses．They could tell you something about the speaker's feeling．For example，when a speaker is really angry，he might use pauses and says，"I…am…so…angry…"41．How much of telephone communication is from the words you use？A.20%．B.40%．C.60%．D.80%．42．What can people do to reduce their nervousness on the phone？A．Gesture wildly．B．Move around．C．Raise their voices．D．Make facial expressions．43．How can pauses help people talk on the phone？A．The speaker can show he is friendly．B．The speaker can tell more information．C．The listener will feel confident and in control．D．The listener will have time to understand the words．44．What is the passage mainly about？A．How to control the speed of your speech．B．Different good ways of talking on the phone．C．Reasons of making gestures while talking．D．How to improve communication among friends．45．What is the writer's opinion about telephone talk？A．Your voice on the phone will show what you're feeling．B．Using too many pauses while talking will annoy others．C．Speaking loudly makes it easier for others to understand you．D．The words you use are more important than the way you speak．第二节阅读填空阅读短文及文后A～E选项，选出可以填入46～50各题空白处的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑．46．In the middle of my home country there are very large places．They are hot and dry land called deserts．（46）Families live a long way from

AInside the Rain RoomThe Rain Room has arrived and local art lovers are taking notice. Is it worth the wait? Yes, I assure you it is. Once inside, visitors find a long, dark room with a high ceiling.

And vi sitors aren’t getting wet. Instead, visitors wander in awe, admiring the rain and the artists who created it.The Rain Room was created to highlight the connection between humans, nature and technology. With a tracking system that senses movement and stops the rain wherever visitors move, it does just that. Light and sound produce an experience that feels both natural and foreign. The exhibit is moving on to Atlanta next month. I urge you to visit before then. It’s time to experience the Rain Room for yourself!Welcome to the Rain Room•The Rain Room features falling water.

Built over 2,200 years ago in what is now Sichuan Province in Southwest China, this amazing engineering achievement is still used today to irrigate over 6,000 square kilometres of farmland, take away floodwater and provide water for 50 cities m the province.In ancient times, the region in which Dujiangyan now stands suffered from regular floods caused by overflow from the Minjiang River. To help the victims of the flooding, Li Bing, the region^ governor, together with his son, decided to find a solution. They studied the problem and discovered that the river most often overflowed when winter snow at the top of the nearby Mount Yulei began to melt as the weather warmed.The simplest fix was to build a dam, but this would have ruined the Minjiang River. So instead Li designed a series of channels built at different levels along Mount Yulei that would take away the floodwater while leaving the river flowing naturally. Better still, the extra water could be directed to the dry Chengdu Plain, making it suitable for farming.Cutting the channels through the hard rock of Mount Yulei was a remarkable accomplishment as it was done long before the invention gunpowder and explosives. £1 Bing found another solution. He used a combination of fire and water to heat and cool the rocks until they cracked and could be removed. After eight years of work, the 20-metre-wide canals had been carved through the mountain.Once the system was finished, no more floods occurred and the people were able to live peacefully and affluently. Today, Dujiangyan is admired by scientists from around the world because of one feature. Unlike modem dams where the water is blocked with a huge wall,Dujiangyan still lets water flow through the Minjiang River naturally, enabling ecosystems and fish populations to exist in harmony.24. What are the benefits of Dujiangyan according to the first paragraph?A. Reducing flooding and watering farmland.B. Protecting the mountain and reducing flooding.C. Watering farmland and improving water quality.D. Drying the river and supplying cities with water.25. What was the main cause of the Minjiang Rivers flooding?A. Heavy rains.B. Melting snow.C. Low river banks.D. Steep mountains.26. How was Li Bing able to break through the rocks of Mount Yulei?A. By using gunpowder.B. By flooding the rocks with water.C. By applying a heating and cooling technique.D. By breaking the rocks with hammers and spades.27. Why is Dujiangyan greatly admired by scientists today?A. It preserves much of the natural river life.B. It took very little time to complete the project.C. The building techniques used were very modem.D. It has raised the living standards of the local people.CBill Gates recently predicted that online learning will make place-based colleges less significant, and five years from now, students will be able to find the best lectures in the world online. I applaud Mr. Gates. But what’s taking us so long?As early as 1997, MIT (麻省理工）decided to post videos of all university lectures online, for free, for all people. But today, how many students have you met who mastered advanced mathematics or nuclear physics from an MIT online video? Unfortunately, the answer is not many.The problem is the poor quality of online education websites and the experience they provide to students. Those who go to the MIT website and watch courses online are surely very smart people, but ifs not like playing a video game such as World of Warcraft. Only the most ardent students, those who are highly motivated, will devote themselves to studying these boring online videos.The real question is why we aren’t spending more to develop better online education platforms. Where is the Avatar of education? Think about this. The market for Hollywood films per year is worth around 30 billion USD. Education in the world is a trillion-dollar-a-year market, hundreds of times bigger than Hollywood movies. Yet the most expensive digital learning system ever built cost well under 100 million dollars.Bill Gates’ prediction is going to happen. There is no doubt about it. But it will only happen when we create high level educational content and experiences that engage and excite more than has ever been possible in the real world.28. What has Bill Gates forecast about online learning?A. It will concentrate on physics lectures.B. It will completely replace real universities.C. It will help to make universities more successful.D. It will play an increasingly important role in education.29. What does the underlined word “ardent” in Paragraph 3 mean?.A. Creative.B. Enthusiastic.C. Well-behaved.D. Experienced.30. According to the author, what is holding back the popularity of online learning?A. The lack of lectures available online.B. The high cost of access to the websites.C. The low standard of educational websites.D. The competition with online computer games.31. Why does the author mention Hollywood?A. To show that Hollywood produces many successful movies.B. To prove that education is more profitable than entertainment.C. To argue that movie directors should produce educational content.D. To urge that more money be spent developing educational websites.DPersuasion is the art of convincing someone to agree with you. According to the ancient Greeks, there are three basic tools of persuasion : ethos, pathos, and logos.Ethos is a speakers way of convincing the audience that she is trustworthy, honest and reliable. One common way a speaker can develop ethos is by explaining how much experience or education she has in the field. After all, you’re more likely t o listen to advice about how to take care of your teeth from a dentist than a fireman. A speaker can also create ethos by convincing the audience that she is a good person. If an audience cannot trust you, you will notbe able to persuade them.Pathos is a speaker’s way of connecting with an audience’s emotions. For example, a politician who is trying to convince an audience to vote for him might say that he alone can save the country from a terrible war. These words are intended to fill the audience with fear, thus making them support him. Similarly, an animal charity might show an audience pictures of injured dogs and cats, to make the viewers feel pity. If the audience feels bad for the animals, they will be more likely to donate money.Logos is the use of facts, statistics, or other evidence to support your argument. An audience will be more likely to believe you if you have convincing data to back up your claims. Presenting this evidence is much more persuasive than simply saying “believe me”.Although ethos, pathos, and logos all have their strengths, they are often most effective when used together. Indeed, most speakers use a combination of ethos, pathos, and logos to persuade their audiences. So, the next time you listen to a speech, watch a commercial, or listen to a friend try to convince you to lend him some money, be on the lookout for these ancient Greek tools of persuasion.32. Why does the author say persuasion is an art?A. They both entertain the audience.B. They both require great skill to achieve.C. They both demand full attention from the audience.D. They were both common topics of ancient Greek writers.33. How is a speaker able to show her ethos to the audience?A. By expressing her sympathy with the audience.B. By telling the audience about her personal preference.C. By using beautiful language to make her statements attractive.D. By showing her knowledge and experience relating to the topic. .34. What can we learn about the three aspects of persuasion?A. Ethos is the most important aspect of persuasion.B. Each aspect has a different effect on the audience.C. Honesty is the key to making your arguments believable.D. Political leaders mostly use pathos to persuade their audience.35. An advertisement for washing powder which claims that M scientific tests show that our powder kills 95% of all bacteria” is mainly using _________.A. ethosB. pathosC. logosD. a combination of all three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,选项中有两项为多余选项。

Better still, the extra water could be directed to the dry Chengdu Plain, making it suitable for farming.Cutting the channels through the hard rock of Mount Yulei was a remarkable accomplishment as it was done long before the invention of gunpowder and explosives. Li Bing found another solution. He used a combination of fire and water to heat and cool the rocks until they cracked and could be removed. After eight years of work, the 20-metre-wide canals had been carved through the mountain.Once the system was finished, no more floods occurred and the people were able to live peacefully and affluently. Today, Dujiangyan is admired by scientists from around the world because of one feature. Unlike modern dams where the water is blocked with a huge wall, Dujiangyan still lets water flow through the Minjiang River naturally, enabling ecosystems and fish populations to exist in harmony.24. What are the benefits of Dujiangyan according to the first paragraph?A. Reducing flooding and watering farmland.B. Protecting the mountain and reducing the flooding.C. Watering farmland and improving water quality.D. Drying the river and supplying cities with water.25. What was the main cause of the Minjiang River’s flooding?A. Heaving rainsB. Melting snow.C. Low river banks C. Steep mountains.26. How was Li Bing able to break through the rocks of Mount Yulei?A. By using gunpowder.B. By flooding the rocks with water.C. By applying a hearing and cooling technique.D. By breaking the rocks with hammers and spades27. Why is Dujiangyan greatly admired by scientists today?A. It preserved much of the natural river life.B. It took very little time to complete the project.C. The building techniques used were very modern.D. It had raised the living standards of the local people.CBill Gates recently predicted that online learning will make place-based colleges less significant, and five years from now, students will be able to find the best lectures in the world online. I applaud Mr. Gates. But what’s taking us so long?As early as 1997, MIT（麻省理工）decide to post videos of all university lectures online, for free, for all people. But today, how many students have you met who mastered advanced mathematics or nuclear physics from an MIT online video? Unfortunately, the answer is not many.The problem is the poor quality of online education websites and the experience they provide to students. Those who go to the MIT website and watch courses online are surely very smart people, but it’s not like playing a video game such as World of Warcraft. Only the most ardent students, those who are highly motivated, will devote themselves tostudying these boring online videos.The real question is why er aren’t spending more to develop better online education platforms. Where is the Avatar of education? Think about this. The market for Hollywood films per year is worth around 30 billion USD. Education in the world is a trillion-dollar-a-year market, hundreds of times bigger than Hollywood movies. Yet the most expensive digital learning system ever built cost well under 100 million dollars.Bill Gates’ prediction is going to happen. There is no doubt about this. But it will only happen when we create high level educational content and experiences that engage and excite more than has ever been possible in the real world.28. What has Bill Gates forecast about online learning?A. It will concentrate on physics lectures.B. It will completely replace real universities.C. It will help to make universities more successful.D. It will play an increasingly important role in education.29. What does the underlined word “ardent” in Paragraph 3 mean?A. Creative.B. Enthusiastic.C. Well-behaved.D. Experienced.30. According to the author, what is holding back the popularity of online learning?A. The lack of lectures available online.B. The high cost of access to the websites.C. The low standard of educational websites.D. The competition with online computer games.31. Why does the author mention Hollywood?A. To show that Hollywood produces many successful movies.B. To prove that education is more profitable than entertainment.C. To argue that movie directors should produce educational content.D. To urge that more money be spent developing educational websites.DPersuasion is the art of convincing someone to agree with you. According to theancient Greeks, there are three basic tools of persuasion: ethos, pathos, and logos.Ethos is a speaker’s way of convincing the audience that she is trustworthy, honest and reliable. One common way a speaker can develop ethos is by explaining how much experience or education she has in the field. After all, you’re more likey to listen to advice about how to take care of your teeth from a dentist than a fireman. A speaker can also create ethos by convincing the audience that she is a good person. If an audience cannot trust you, you will not be able to persuade them.Pathos is a speaker’s way of connecting with an audience’s emotions. For example, a politician who is trying to convince an audience to vote for him might say that he alone can save the country from a terrible war. These words are intended to fill the audience with fear, thus making them support him. Similarly, an animal charity might show an audience pictures of injured dos and cats, to make the viewers feel pity. If the audience feels bad for the animals, they ill be more likely to donate money.Logos is the use of facts, statistics, or other evidence to support your argument. An audience will be more likely to believe you if you have convincing data to back up your claims. Presenting this evidence is much more persuasive than simply saying “believe me”.Although ethos, pathos, and logos all have their strengths, they are often most effective when used together. Indeed, most speakers use a combination of ethos, pathos, and logs to persuade their audiences so, the next time you listen to a speech, watch a commercial, or listen to a friend try to convince you to lend him some money, be on the lookout for these ancient Greek tools of persuasion.32. Why does the author say persuasion is an art?A. They both entertain the audience.B. They both require great skill to achieve.C. They both demand full attention from the audience.D. They were both common topics of ancient Greek writers.33. How is a speaker able to show her ethos to the audience?A. By expressing her sympathy with the audience.B. By telling the audience about her personal preference.C. By using beautiful language to make her statements attractive.D. By showing her knowledge and experience relating to the topic..34. What can we learn about the three aspects of persuasion?A. Ethos is the most important aspect of persuasion.B. Each aspect has a different effect on the audience.C. Honesty is the key to making your arguments believable.D. Political leaders mostly use pathos to persuade their audience.35. An advertisement for washing powder which claims that “scientific tests show that our powder kills 95% of all bacteria: is mainly using _____________.A. ethosB. pathosC. logosD. A combination of all three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。

As the old saying goes, "A new broom sweeps clean．" Donald Trump, the 45th president of the United States, took office on Jan 20． Soon after that, the new president began using his power to make changes to the country by signing several executive orders （总统行政令）．The orders include the travel ban （禁令） on refugees （难民） and people from seven mainly Muslim countries, like Iraq and Syria． Trump believes this helps keep terrorism （恐怖主义） out of the US． He also signed an order to build a wall along the southern border （边境）, aiming to stop smugglers （走私者） and Mexicans moving to the US illegally （非法地）．Trump pointed out on his Facebook that this is about keeping the USsafe． However, many people, both from the US and other countries, are against the orders． Judges in the US say that Trump's travel ban is unconstitutional （违背宪法的）, as it is a kind of discrimination （歧视） against Muslims． And world leaders, groups and businesses including those from the United Nations and European Union （欧盟） are also against or have criticized the ban．Trump also signed another controversial （有争议的） order about the economy． He decided to quit the Trans﹣Pacific Partnership （TPP, 跨太平洋伙伴关系协定）． It was a free trade agreement between 12countries around the Pacific, includingAustralia, Singapore and Japan． TPP was the product of seven years of work under former US President Barack Obama． It aims to make trade easier among the 12countries． But Trump wants to do trade deals with one country at a time, instead of in a big group like the TPP, according to The Independent《独立报》．（1）． According to Trump， he signed the travel ban on refugees to________．A solve the refugee problemsB fight against MuslimsC keep his countrysafe D stop foreigners entering the US．（2）． What do many US people think of Trump's orders， according to the third andfourth paragraphs？________A They think the orders are helpful．B They don't support the orders．C They think the orders follow the law．D The orders are against the rules of the UN and EU．．（3）． Trump decided to leave the TPP， because________．A he preferred to trade with one country at a time rather than a groupB he didn't want to make trade deals with Australia and JapanC he thought the TPP group was not big enoughD he didn't like the former US president．（4）． What does the story mainly talk about？________A Trump's new orders．B Trump's travel ban．C The Trans﹣Pacific Partnership．D Different leadership styles of US presidents．．（5）． "A new broom sweeps clean．" means________ in Chinese．A 敝帚自珍B 路遥知马力C 新官上任三把火D 千里之行始于足下．（1）． When you live in________， you won't pay for the breakfast．A Beijing HotelB Changcheng HotelC Haitian HotelD Blue Sea Hotel．（2）． Sally wants to have fun swimming and enjoying beautiful sunshine， she should call the travel agency at________．A 400﹣581﹣620B 400﹣581﹣258C 400﹣581﹣278D 400﹣581﹣467．（3）． Bill would like to visit the Palace Museum， he can book________．A at 9：00pm on SundayB at 7：00am on SaturdayC at 10：00pm onMonday D at 9：30pm on Friday．（4）． Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage？________A You can book tickets online or make phone calls．B It takes you five minutes to the nearest beach by bus from Haitian Hotel．C You can go to the downtown on foot in Blue Sea Hotel and Changcheng Hotel．D Tian'anmen Square is far away from Beijing Hotel．．（5）． This passage is a/an________．A storyB newspaper reportC advertisementD travelling diary．6. IF you miss out a meal, do you ever notice yourself starting to get angry or annoyed very easily? Well, this is often known as being "hangry" or being angry because you are very hungry．But as it turns out, it's not just a funny phrase, but it is scientifically true! Scientists found this feeling of anger usually comes from having low glucose （葡萄糖） levels in the blood． Glucose is put into the body after you eat．The brain also needs this to work correctly． When the body is low on glucose, the brain sends hormones （激素） to increase the amount of glucose in the body． Brenda Bustillos, a dietitian at Texas A&M University, US, says this makes it hard for a person to control their feelings．"Hunger leads to high stress hormones, " said Bustillos, "which makes it hard to manage our feelings．"Amanda Salis, PhD, University of Sydney, says that we may also be able to thank our ancestors（祖先） for our hanger． Salis says that long ago when there was not much food, people had to be ________ to eat as much as they could to get enough food to live．So even now when most people have enough food to eat, there is still that aggressive feeling toward needing food．（1）． From Paragraph 1， we learn that "hangry"________．A is the wrong word for "hungry"B is "angry" spelled wrongC means being angry because of hungerD means that one is very hungry．（2）． Which of the following is NOT true？________A Glucose in your body comes from the food you eat．B People may get angry easily because of low glucose levels．C Hormones can increase the amount of glucose in the body．D Hunger can cause too many hormones in the brain．．（3）． What does the underlined word "aggressive" in the passage mean？________A 好斗的B 分享的C 自私的D 坚强的．（4）． The article mainly talks about________．A the reasons for getting angryB the science behind being hangryC the changes of brain chemicalsD the importance of food．（5）． According to the article， what is the best title？________A Why do people feel hungry？B Being "hungry" or being angryC Where does hunger come from？D Anger comes hand in hand with hunger．7.
