While they were traveling, they happened to pass a lake. They stopped there and Buddha told one of his followers, “I am thirsty. Please get me some water from that lake there”.The follower walked up to the lake. When he reached it, he noticed that some people were washing clothes in the water and, right at that moment, a bullock cart started crossing the lake right at the edge of it. As a result, the water became very muddy, very dirty. The follower thought, “How can I give this muddy water to Buddha to drink?!” So he came back and told the Buddha, “The water in there is very muddy. I don’t think it is fit to drink”.So, the Buddha said, let us take a little rest here by the tree. After about half an hour, again Buddha asked the same follower to go back to the lake and get him some water to drink. The follower obediently (顺从地) went back to the lake. This time he found that the lake had absolutely clear water in it. The mud had settled down and the water above it looked fit to be had. So he collected some water in a pot and brought it to the Buddha.The Buddha looked at the water, and then he looked up at the follower and said, “See, you let the water be and the mud settled down on its own. You got clear water. It didn’t require any effort”.Our mind is also like that. When it is disturbed, just let it be. Give it a little time and it will settle down on its own. You don’t have to put in any effort to calm it down. We can judge the best decisions of our life when we stay calm.24. Why did Buddha asked his follower to collect water?A.

Buddha and His Follower.D. Efforts will Pay Off.CWhen I was trying to find a place where to spend my December holidays, I met by chance some cheap flights to Iceland. After checking just a few winter pictures of Iceland, I realized that the country, known as the land of fire and ice, during the cold months of the year could offer me experiences I had never had before.For sure you can’t miss the chance to go to Iceland in winter if your traveling wish list includes at least one of the crazy experiences Iceland can offer. Iceland in the North Atlantic Ocean is a paradise ( 乐园) for all those who want to see the northern lights, experience cold weather conditions and put themselves in geothermal ( 地热的) baths while the snow is falling on their head.The best way to move around Iceland is with a rental car. Distances are huge and publictransport in winter is not really common out of the major towns. As we wanted to be even more convenient we decided to rent a small camper ( 野营车). Sleeping and cooking in a camper saved us a lot of driving, money and gave us the chance to be always in the right place at the right time.There were also no locals and in many cases no tourist facilities (设备). For us, as we slept in a camper, it was easier. But for tourists traveling by normal cars it is necessary to check the opening times of hotels and restaurants as many of them run just from June to September.It is amazing to experience how the weather is changing in Iceland. However, Icelanders prefer to stay inside their houses. They have even no time to complain about the weather in December. All they care about is Christmas. They love to decorate their houses, sing Christmas songs and eat typical Christmas food.28. Why is Iceland famous as the land of fire and ice?A. Because tourists would like to play with fire on the ice.B. Because it is too dry to easily cause fire to happen.C. Because there exist hot springs and freezing ice.D. Because it is hot inside a house and cold outside.29. What did the author think of the rented camper?A. It was convenient but cost them more money.B. It was not only practical but also economical.C. It provided the best chance to see the new country.D. It was much faster than other public transport.30. What does the last paragraph imply?A. The joy of Christmas drives the freezing weather away.B. The Icelanders prefer to live with their family.C. December is the coldest month of the year.D. The Icelanders are always positive and stay outside.31.What does this passage most probably come from?A. A textbookB. A scientific reportC. A news reportD. A travel magazineDA research has shown that nearly 90 percent of traffic accidents are caused by human errors. So our aim is a fully autonomous car that gets rid of the cause of most accidents: the driver. Researcher Hodgson points out, “For safety, the faster you can remove humans, the better, even if there are unfortunately a few accidents from new causes. It s a question of balancing the number injured or killed by autonomous vehicles with the people whose lives are potentially saved.”It’s an idea that Elon Musk, chief executive of electric car company Tesla Motors, has long believed. His company are determined to be the first to deliver a fully autonomous vehicle to consumers. Last year, Musk announced that Tesla’s 2017 goal was “to do an example drive of full autonomy all the way from LA to New York…and have the car park itself.”However, even Tesla admits that there are problems to overcome—the software needs further validation and the appropriate regulatory approval needs to be in place. Indeed,recent crashes of Tesla vehicles and Google cars confirm that the software isn’t ready yet.The UK government appears committed to encouraging the development of autonomous vehicles. It’s supporting four city trials, publishing the Modem Transport Bill to reduce red tape around their introduction and adapting the legal system to take into account problems such as insurance liability when a human isn’t in control of a vehicle.The insurance industry is similarly eager to help increase autonomy in cars. As the Association of British Insurers (ABI) points out, “More than 90 percent of road accidents are caused by human error.” This costs motor insur ers a shocking £20m per day in claims.32. What difficulty does the company Tesla Motors have?A. New inventions may cause more injuries and deaths.B. The company lacks confidence to make new creations.C. The software should be made officially acceptable.D. The traffic regulation has proved unreasonable.33. What is the UK government’s attitude to autonomous cars?A. Ambiguous.B. Positive.C. Cautious.D. Disapproving.34. What is the main idea of the last paragraph?A. Insurance companies would like to support autonomous cars.B. Human mistakes may be the key cause of traffic accidents.C. Traffic accidents wastes insurance companies quite a lot.D. Motorists are surprised to hear about autonomous cars.35. What is the author’s purpose in writing the text?A. To show his deep love for autonomous cars.B. To introduce a new development in technology.C. To amuse readers with funny examples.D. To provide a persuasive argument against autonomy.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。
