AResearch has shown that 85 percent of communication is nonverbal, so choosing what to wear to an interview is clearly an important part of your overall presentation. It won’t make up for weak answers, but it can communicate some positive things about your personality and what you might be like to work with.Blue:You can’t go wrong with darker shades of blue, especially navy. Choosing from this powerful color will project an image of someone who is in control. From the interviewer’s point of view, the color blue suggests calm, stability, trust, truth, confidence and security. These are all great messages to send without saying a word.Gray:After blue, gray is the second most popular color to wear for an interview. Like darker blue, it’s not a dis tracting color to the interviewer, which means they’ll be focused more on what you’re saying and how you’re saying it. Gray means sophistication(老成), so use it to your advantage.Black: This is a commanding color and represents authority. Black also suggests excitement, so use it carefully when putting together your interview outfit. You may want to use it as an accent(着重色) —like in a scarf or tie, for instance—rather than as the primary color.Red: This is an extremely powerful color. It’s so strong that you should only use it as an accent color. Reds are associated with energy, passion, desire, power and aggression. People think of intensity(紧张) andpassion when they see the color red, so use it carefully or it could send the wrong message to the interviewer.White: White shirts and blouses are always appropriate. It sends the message of simplicity, cleanliness, precision(精细) and goodness.1. Why is it important to choose what to wear to an interview?A. Because it will make up for your weak answers.B. Because it suggests something about your personality.C. Because it will make you feel better.D. Because the interviewer judges a person by his appearance.2. Based on the passage, which of the following are the messages from “Blue”?①stability ②energy ③power ④confidence ⑤securityA. ①②③B. ②③④C.①④⑤D. ②③⑤3. If you want to leave an impression of being simple and clean, you should be in _____.A. grayB. redC. blackD. white4. From the passage we can infer that _______.A. job interviewees should think twice before wearing red clothes.B. the colors can send all the messages you want to convey.C. you can wear white clothes if you want to appear active.D. gray is the most popular color to wear for an interview.BCan exercise during childhood protect you against memory loss many decades later? Exercise early in life seems to have lifelong benefits for the brain,in rats at least."This is an animal study, but it shows that physical activity at a young age is very important一not just for physical development,but for the whole lifelong track of cognitive（认知的）development during ageing,"says Martin Wojtowicz of the University of Toronto,Canada."In humans,it may delay the appearance of Alzheimer's symptoms（阿兹海默氏症）,possibly to the point of preventing them."Wojtowicz's team divided 80 young male rats into two equal groups,and placed running wheels in the cages of one group for a period of six weeks.Around four months later—when the rats had reached middleage—the team taught all the rats to connect an electric shock with being in a specific box.When placed in the box,they froze with fear.Two weeks later,the team tested the rats in three situations: exactly the same box in the same room,the same box with the room arranged differently,and a completely different box in a different room.The rats without access to a running wheel when they were young now froze the same percentage of times in each of these situations,suggesting they couldn't remember which one was dangerous.But those that had been able to run in their youth froze 40 to 50 percent less in both changed box settings.“The results suggest the amount of physical activity when we're young,at least for rats,has influence on brain and cognitive health—in the form of better memories—when we're older,"says Arthur Kramer of Northeastern University in Boston,who has found that,in humans,exercise promotes the growth of new brain cells.5.The study shows that______.A.physical activity is important for physical healthing the running wheels is of benefit to the rats' growthC.physical activity can prevent human's Alzheimer's symptomsD.the more exercise a rat has when young,the better memory it will possess when older6.How are Paragraph 3 and 4 mainly developed?A.By analyzing causes.B.By giving an example.C.By describing the process.D.By showing differences.7.What does the underlined word "it" in Paragraph 2 refer to?A.Exercise.B.Development.C.Benefit.D.Study.8.What is the author's attitude towards the animal study?A.Negative.B.Objective.C.Critical.D.Doubtful.CThe “Boomerang Kids” — young adults who leave to go to college, get married or just show off their independence —are moving back in with mom and dad. Boomerang Kids can be a mixed blessing for parents, both emotionally and financially.Especially during hard economic times, adult children head for home. According to a survey, about 40percent of 2017 graduates still live with their parents. Moreover, 42 percent of the 2015 graduates surveyed said they are still living at home.The reasons are many, the first being economics. While the recession has touched Americans of all ages, it has been very hard for young adults. This has sent many kids back home. Plus, there is the matter of debt, especially college loans. For many recent graduates, it makes smart economic sense to move back in with their parents where life is comfortable and rent is either low or nonexistent. Then, of course, some return for personal reasons, such as recovering from a divorce or an illness.Parents are often glad to help out, both emotionally and financially. As a result, the arrangement often works to everyone’s satisfaction. However, there a re risks, especially for the parents. These include not only family tension and misunderstandings, but also money. The return to the family can become a financial burden that can affect the parents’ plans and their financial future, especially their retire ment, as they try to do too much for their children.9. Boomerang Kids are those who .A. like to show off their independenceB. have problem with their marriageC. graduate from college in advanceD. return to live with parents after graduation10. The underlined words in Paragraph 1 mean something that .A. has advantages and disadvantagesB. is very useful and beneficialC. will have a good resultD. worries people a lot11. What can we learn from the passage?A. It is a tough choice for young adults to move back home.B. Parents may have to deal with extra financial burden.C. Children face fewer financial problems than ever.D. Most graduates choose to live with their parents.DElephants scored a big win in Dohar, Qatar, on March 22. People from 175 countries met in the Middle Eastern country. They voted to continue a ban on the sale of ivory(象牙). Two African nations, Tanzania and Zambia, had asked to open up the ivory trade.People feared that weakening a 21-year-old ban on the sale of ivory would encourage illegal hunting and hurt elephant populations. African elephants once numbered in the millions. Today, there are fewer than 500,000.“People born in 100 years should be able to see an elephant,” said Noah Wekesa, Kenya’s minis ter of forest and wildlife. His country voted to keep the ban.In the 1980s, as many as 1 million elephants were killed throughout Africa. Hunters killed the animals for their ivory tusks, which were used to make jewelry and other things. “The slaughter of elephants in Africa was terrible,” says Paul Todd of the International Fund for Animal Welfare. The group works to protect animals.The ivory wars continued until 1989, when the United Nations voted to ban all trade in ivory. With trade controlled, demand for ivory fell. Governments punished hunters. Elephant populations began slowly to increase.Tanzania and Zambia asked to allow ivory sales from government stockpiles(库存). Ivory is so expensive that it’s known as “white gold”. Tanzania holds a lmost 200,000 pounds of ivory, which is worth as much as ＄20 million. Zambia has 48,000 pounds of the white gold. The countries said they need the money the ivory would bring. They say it was taken from hunters or came from animals that died naturally.Experts believe that trading ivory encourages illegal hunting. They felt happy about the decision which forbids the sales. “This is a rare victory for elephants,” said Jason Bell. He works to protect animals.12. Tanzania and Zambia asked to open up the ivory trade to____________.A. sell elephantsB. sell jewelry made from ivoryC. sell their stocked ivoryD. continue hunting for ivory13.The underlined word “slaughter” in paragraph 4 most probably means___________.A. protectingB. killingC. increasingD. searching14. Ivory is known as “white gold” because___________.A. it is as rare as white goldB. it has the same value as white goldC. it looks like white goldD. it is as valuable as gold15. The text is mainly about____________.A. protecting endangered animals around the worldB. the effects of the ivory wars of the 1980sC. the life of elephants in the wildD. continuing a ban on the ivory sale to protect elephants第二节七选五（每空2分，共10分）Summer is the perfect time to relax. As you plan for your trip, here are some tips on how to protect yourself. 16 .Fight against the mosquitoes in the hot spots.There are many mosquito-borne illnesses in tropical regions,which are traditionally vacation hot spots. Therefore,mosquito repellent（驱蚊剂）that contains DEET should be an essential item in your travel bag.17 .In lesser-developed countries there is less equipment for clean water and public health.If you can't avoid unhealthful water,make sure you bring along a tea or coffee—making pot that will boil water for you.You'd better buy a case or two of water and check that all bottle caps are sealed to assure the bottled water isn't just a refilled bottle of dirty tap water.Always protect your feet.It's best to wear slippers in the shower,but if you must be barefoot,put a towel down on the floor.18 .You should never walk barefoot in any area of a foreign country,including your hotel room.Be sure to eat safe fruits.19 .They may have been washed in the same water,or wiped with the same rag used to clean work surfaces in kitchens.The best advice is to bring your own peeler（削皮器）so that you know that something clean has been applied to the fruit.Enjoy the smell of roadside stands,not the food.Unless the food is piping hot when served,it's best to stay away from roadside stands,no matter how good the smell of the food might be.If you are concerned about whether a restaurant is clean,order the food to go. 20 .A.Don't trust the local waterB.Any fruit served fresh may be pollutedC.Look out for any water not served in a bottleD.The boxes may be cleaner than the plate or fork on the tableE.You should know how to keep yourself away from dirty fruitsF.They are necessary to avoid coming back with a major illness from your tripG.Parasites（寄生虫）can enter the skin of your feet and travel to different parts of the body第二部分：英语知识运用（共两节）满分45分第一节：完形填空（共20小题；每小题1．5分，满分30分）阅读下面短文，掌握其大意，从各题所给的四个选项中，选出最佳选项。

AMy life began much like most other children's before my parents left me。

I grew up without knowing what parents were and there was no one to teach me how to behave and how to tell right from wrong. Because of this，I developed problems with alcohol（酒）and spent seven years as a boy on the street，before ending up in a rehab clinic(康复诊所）when I was 20。

Inside I met my counselor （辅导员)，Bill，and he taught me a lot of things。

The main thing was the gift of giving。

It was the night before an important test and I was very nervous。

Bill saw this and suggested that we should go out for a walk。

As we walked and talked，Bill suggested we should go for a coffee。

AThe Best and Worst Things to Buy in MarchFrozen foodGrocery store ads aren't the only places to find deals on freezer-section treats. To take advantage of the deepest discounts, combine coupons (优惠券) from sponsoring brands, such as Dole, Green Giant and Tyson Foods, with grocery store sales.

Brands participating in National Frozen Food Month will offer more than 180, 000 coupons that make frozen food among the best things to buy in March.Boxed chocolatesIf you desire to give a gift to a friend in March, consider chocolate. Two minor holidays in March provide the perfect excuse: National Chocolate Caramel Day on March 19 and National Chocolate-Covered Raisin Day on March 24. You can discover chocolate deals online as well as in stores. Head to sites like to find discount coupons for boxed chocolate savings of 10 percent or more.New carsWith the latest car models filling dealers' lots, you'll have a hard time finding discounted models from the year before. Car dealerships are less motivated to offer steep discounts from March through May. Instead, plan to buy your car during the fall or winter. You should also research the auto you want at TrueCar before heading for the dealership. The site offers information on how much the previous buyers paid for the vehicles you want.Spring clothingWhen warm weather makes you want to head outdoors, resist the urge to do so wearing the latest fashions. You won't find March deals on swimsuits, Easter dresses or other spring items. To find discounts on clothes of this spring, hold off until Memorial Day weekend. You can also look for online and in-store savings at Amazon, Macy's, Saks Fifth Avenue and other retailers.1．Which things offer discounts in March?A．Frozen food and new cars B．Boxed chocolates and new cars.C．Frozen food and boxed chocolates.

Schools closed and graduation ceremonies were put off. Summer plans, such as camps, are up in the air.But right now, many students are trying to stay connected, struggling with false information, and finding out the best ways they can help – through online method.For Josh Harycki, 17, a senior student at the Shipley School in Philadelphia, the best way to help was to create a “social distancing promise” for young people.“I saw a lot of young people not paying attention,” he said. “They were … still going out, hanging out with others. I thought that there had to be a way to reach younger people, who were possibly not watching the news.”Harycki started a call to action on social media and then built a website with a map that followed and kept the locations of people who’d signed the pro mise. The site also shares links to accurate sources of information like the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.Harycki knows that his peers are worried they can’t connected with their friends in the same way, so he created the social distancing promise to strengthen that although everyone might be physically distant, they’re still connected.“Part of what we’re showing is that you might feel like you’re the only one taking thisseriously, but our map shows that you’re not alone,” he said.4．Wha t does the underlined word “jarring” in Paragraph 2 probably mean?A．natural B．necessary C．worrying D．reasonable 5．Who does Harycki mainly want to reach?A．Friends who are worried and bored. B．Young people not aware of the situation.C．Younger students trying to help. D．People taking the corona-virus seriously．6．What’s Harycki’s purpose in creating the “social distancing promise”?A．To order young people to stay at home.B．To follow those infected with the corona-virus.C．To tell young folks of latest news about the corona-virus.D．To show young people that they are still connected.7．Why does the author describe Andrew Chen’s experience in the text?A．To explain what worried students most when schools closed.B．To show the different views of students toward the corona-virus.C．To show how the corona-virus affected students’ lives.D．To explain the proper reaction to the close of school.CAccording to the Study Abroad Trend Report for 2018, conducted by Chinese education website Eol. cn, the num ber of Chinese students who study abroad to gain a bachelor’s degree or below is rising, and the current group of Chinese overseas students is younger than those in the past years.Du Xiying, a Beijing-based study-abroad agent, has first-hand experience working with this younger crop of students. “When I started this job some 10 years ago, almost all cases were filed by college graduates trying to apply for a master's degree in the US, UK, Australia and Canada,” said Du. “Now quite a number of my clients ar e high school graduates, and my company even employed some experienced consultants to satisfy the increasing need of college-bound Chinese students.” However, in the eyes of Du, most of them are not ready to put themselves in a completely different context at such a young age. Although there are no statistics available, according to Du’s observations, college-bound high school graduates from China fall into two groups. There is a group of students from well-off families, with good grades and excellent command of English, and there is another group who did not do very well in their college entrance exams, so they seek to study abroad as a solution to their troubles. “In recent years, with the financial ability of Chinese families growing with the country's development, buying into college is very common,” said Du.Complaints come from both destination schools in the US and parents of students. Goingabroad at a young age needs a great deal of discipline(自律),and college students don't usually live at home-stays so they are free from management. A considerable quantity of students have ended with being dismissed(开除).As to the dismissal issue, Du said it’s inevitable due to the large number of students crowding abroad. It’s just not easy to ensure quality. But sh e does think both students and parents should be responsible for their own investment of both time and money. “The worst case is that a family throws out 1 million yuan for their child to come home with nothing, not even fluent English,”said Du.8．What change is mentioned in paragraph 1 and paragraph 2?A．The age of Chinese students studying abroad is getting younger.B．More Chinese students studying abroad are getting a master’s degree.C．Excellent students prefer studying abroad to taking college entrance exams.D．Chinese students’ grades are improving due to professional consultants’ help. 9．Which opinion does Du probably agree with?A．Most young students are qualified to study abroad.B．Buying into schools could be a good solution to students’ prob lems.C．Destination schools should be responsible for the management of students.D．Parents and students should be cautious about the decision to study abroad.10．Why do some students fail in their oversea study?A．They are not financially supported.B．They are rejected by destination schools.C．They can't live up to their parents’ expectations.D．They can't live and study abroad independently.11．What does the underlined word “inevitable” in paragraph 4 mean?A．Can’t be avoided.B．Can’t be ignored.C．Can’t be realized.D．Can’t be predicted.DAt 9: 30 am. on a Wednesday morning, I received a notification (通知) that I’d already picked up my phone 30 times that day! “11 left until you go over your goal of 41 pickups,” my screen read. “Put your phone down until 9: 52 a. m. ! Enjoy your time living in the moment.”These updates were sent via Moment, an app that tracks my screen time, created by Kevin Holesh in 2014 to fight his own device addiction. He was working as an independent app developer, spending hours each day staring at screens. After work, Holesh found that he was looking mindlessly online instead of talking to his wife or taking his dogs for a walk.“I wanted a way of seeing how much time I was sinking into my phone,” he said. “So I came up with something that could monitor my screen time.” Holesh found that he was spending 75 minutes on his phone a day. He added a function to the app that informed him whenever his screen time was more than 40 minutes. “My phone would make a sound like a bee, and I’d go and do something else. It was like a little angel on my shoulder pushing me in the right direction,” he said. Holesh figured that if the system worked for him, it would work for others, and later that year he made Moment a free app. To date, it has been downloaded 8 million times.Besides, Moment also has a “coach” function, offering guided programs to help users focus and be more productive, for $ 7. 99 a month.“I am so much happier, I sleep better, I read more, I take better care of myself, a nd most of all I am present in my day-to-day life,” Jack, a user said. Similar comments on Moment reflect a growing consciousness around “digital wellness”, the name given to lifestyle practices that encourage healthy device use.12．What does the inspiration of Moment come from?A．The creator’s own experience.B．The sound made by honey bees.C．Complaints from family members. D．The widespread digital addiction. 13．What does Moment do at the expected screen time?A．Monitor the screen and keep a record. B．Make a noise to remind the user.C．Turn off the phone immediately. D．Force the user to take a rest. 14．What does the author intend to do in Paragraph 4?A．Persuade readers to buy the app. B．Provide readers with some advice.C．Recommend a coach to the readers. D．Introduce more information of the app. 15．In which part of a website will you find this text?A．Fashion and Business. B．Sports and Entertainment.C．Health and Lifestyle. D．Art and Design.第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。

He agreed quietly and I sat down to have my breakfast.We cautiously began a conversation and spoke about a wide rang of things. We never introduced ourselves. I was concerned that he might have no money and not be able to afford something to eat. So as I rose to go back to the counter and buy a second cup of coffee, I asked, “My I get you something ?”“A coffee would be nice.”Then I bought him a cup of coffee, We talked more , and he accepted another cup of coffee, Finally, I rose to leave, wished him well, and headed for the exit. At the door I met one of my friends. He asked,“How did you get to know Mr. Galbreath?”“Who?”“The man you were sitting with. He is chairman of the Board of Churchill Downs.”I could hardly believe it. I was buying, offering a free breakfast, and feeling pity for one of the world’s richest and most powerful men!My few minutes with Mr. Galbreath changed my life.

Each person produces about two kilograms of rubbish in our homes a day. And this is only a small part of all the rubbish we produce. We also create waste in industry.Have you wondered what happens to the rubbish? Most of it is buried in landfills (垃圾填埋地) or burned. Less than 25% of our waste is recycled.A landfill is carefully designed and it is built into or on top of the ground. Rubbish buried in landfills is cut off from the surrounding environment (groundwater, air, rain, etc).One problem with landfills is that they cover a lot of land space. If they are not well-built, there is a high risk of polluting the land and water. Some people also say that landfills remove materials for ever. As a result, the materials that can be reused are wasted.Burning rubbish in factories is another way to cut out waste. Burning reduces 95% of the waste. And if poisonous materials are removed, and burning is completed at controlled temperatures, it is possible to do so without causing too much pollution. Some factories could even produce electricity from the burning process.Not all of the rubbish can be burned, so we have to separate it before we burn it. However, separation costs a lot of money. Another problem with burning rubbish is that what is left after burning is poisonous. How to safely deal with it is a continuing problem.Before the mid-20th century, landfills were the main way to deal with waste. In the late20th century, other ways like recycling have been introduced to help reduce global pollution.Maybe in the near future, with combined efforts, scientists will find a better way to dispose rubbish and cut out waste, like recycling things. But anyway, mountains of rubbish from life every day is a huge burden for any country.8．What is the advantage of burying rubbish in landfills?A．Producing electricity.B．Reusing the materials buried in landfills.C．Reducing 95% of the waste.D．Cutting off rubbish from the surrounding environment.9．Paragraph 6 is mainly about _________.A．the separation of rubbish B．the problems with burning rubbish C．the safety of burning rubbish D．the cost of burning rubbish10．It can be inferred from the passage that _________.A．rubbish should be separated when it is burningB．landfills are too dangerous to be built too manyC．there’re advantages and disadvantages about burning rubbishD．developed countries are better at dealing with rubbish11．After the last paragraph, what is the author likely to talk about next?A．Pollution. B．Landfills.C．Recycling. D．Environment.It cannot be denied that we all want to succeed, whether it is in losing weight or learning the guitar. For those who have tried and failed, success seems difficult to understand. Why does one person succeed where another person fails? I have made a list of four habits to help set goals and achieve them.Identify your core valuesFinding your core values is in line with creating inner motivation. Sit and reflect on what you value most. Pick a handful of things and actually write them down. Remind yourself of your values every day, and reflect on whether you are honoring those values through your work.Pick a goal and focus on itChoose one goal to start something large enough that will give you a sense ofaccomplishment, while adjusting well to your core values. Focus is key here. The more focused you are on one goal, the higher chance you have of success.If you perform a great many tasks at a time, you might never complete your projects because they will take far too long.Set a deadline for successTo set a date or deadline for success is meaningful and necessary. Identify when you hope to achieve your goal. Keep it realistic, while not giving you too much time. By setting a time limit, you are making the process more real and planned.Stick to your goal.Failure can’t be avoided to some extent when you take risks, by its very definition, the desire to succeed means you are risking failure. Many people tend to give up far too early. Don’t fall into this trap! Remember your mindset （心态）earlier. Know it will happen. A failure is merely you working out the details, and learning what works and what doesn’t. Use failure. Treat it as a good thing, and march on!In your lifetime, you have many opportunities to succeed.
