AAruba is one of the most well-known Caribbean destinations for tourists around the world. You’re probably wondering what to include as well as what to wear while you’re in Aruba. ClothesThe main reason why you’re heading there is to relax on the country’s fresh beaches and joy in warm waters of the Caribbean Sea. During most of the day, you’ll likely be wearing your swimsuit. When you’re finished at the beach or pool ar ea, it is advisable to bring along a shirt or cover as well as shorts to wear.It is not recommended to wear beach clothes when you go out for dinner – regardless of the time of day. Shorts and T-shirts are enough in many restaurants, although more formal clothes are advised for the fanciest eating establishments.What else to bring?The Caribbean sun is very strong and if you’re planning on spending lots of time in the sun, there are several precautions you must take. Include suncream, sunglasses, a wide hat, a couple of bathing suits, as well as a beach bag and a cooler in your luggage.What NOT to bring?While drinking water is questionable or not safe in many Caribbean nations, Aruba is an exception. Aruba is known for having the cleanest water in the world. There is no need to bring water, simply bring along an empty bottle.Several items are prohibited in Aruba for carrying. These include firearms, e-cigarettes, as well as sharp objects and tools.1.Tourists choose Aruba for a destination mainly because__________.A. they can wear casual clothes freelyB. they can enjoy the beautiful sceneryC. they can relax on the beach and in watersD. they can have a wonderful dinner party there2. Which of the following is not advised to do in Aruba?A. Wearing a T-shirt in a restaurant.B. Preparing suncream in advance.C. Wearing beach clothes for dinner.D. Taking along sun glasses before going out.3. The purpose of the text is to__________.A. provide information for touristsB. offer advice on travelling in ArubaC. attract more tourists to travel in ArubaD. warn tourists against doing wrong thingsBI never planned to be a teacher. I was headed for a law school, for a real career. Teaching was something to “get out of my system”. I would teach a couple of ye ars and then go to get a real job. After the first couple of years, I promised myself I would leave if I didn’t love my job any more. Twenty-nine years later, that day still has not come.So, why do I stay? I stay because I laugh and learn every day. The children are funny, insightful, and honest. If my shoes don’t match my outfit, they tell me. If my argument that Invisible Man is an important twentieth century classics doesn’t convince them, they tell me.I stay because every single day is different. Some days, my lessons are great, and I have classes of students who are engaged in reading, writing and thinking. Some days, my lessons fall flat, and I realize that I need to start from scratch — even after 29 years.I stay because I love to see the children realize that they have learned something — whether it’s how to craft an argumentative thesis sentence or how to understand the effect of repetition in The Declaration of Independence. I love to see the children write well; I love the feeling of reading a well-argued essay, and I love smiling as I write a final “Awesome job!” on a paper on which a student has worked hard.I stay because what I’ve learned in 29 years is that I do have a “real” job — the most real job there is. It’s the one that leads to other jobs, that helps to create good thinkers who go on to beproductive in our society, and that supports our community as it grows and times change. My job is among the ones that matter most.4.The author became a teacher because he ____________.A. needed money to go to a law schoolB. loved dealing with childrenC. loved teaching very muchD. failed to get a “real” job5. We can infer from Paragraph 2 that the author _________.A. often pays no attention to his outfitB. is good at convincing his studentsC. enjoys his time with his studentsD. doesn’t read many classics6. According to Paragraph 4, the author continues to teach most probably because ________.A. teaching makes him feel he can make a difference to childrenB. teaching makes him realize every day is differentC. he can learn a lot of things from teachingD. he likes to be praised by his students7. What is the passage mainly about?A. What the author has learned as a teacher.B. What the author thinks of being a teacher.C. Wh y the author didn’t choose to become a lawyer.D. Why the author chooses to stay as a teacher.CA young woman sits alone in a café sipping tea and reading a book. She pauses briefly to write in a nearby notepad before showing her words to a passing caféw aiter: “Where are the toilets please?” This is a familiar scene in Tokyo’s so-called “silent cafés”, where customers are not allowed to speak, and only communicate by writing in notepads.The concept rises by a desire to be alone among young Japanese, a situation brought by economic uncertainty, a shift in traditional family support structures and the growing social isolation. The phenomenon is not limited to coffee shops but covers everything from silent discos, where participants dance alone wearing wireless headphones connected to the DJ, to products such as small desk tents designed for conversation-free privacy in the office. One Kyoto company even offers single women the opportunity to have a “one woman wedding” —a full bridal affair, complete with white dress and ceremony, and the only thing missing is the groom. The trend has its own media expression —“botchi-zoku”, referring to individuals who consciously choose to do things completely on their own.One recent weekday afternoon, Chihiro Higashikokubaru, a 23-year-old nurse, travelled 90 minutes from her home, to Tokyo on her day off in order to enjoy some solo time. Speaking quietly at the entrance of the cafe, Miss Higashikokubaru said: “I heard about this place viaTwitter and I like the idea of coming here. I work as a nurse and it's always very busy. There are very few quiet places in Tokyo, and it's a big busy city. I just want to come and sit somewhere quietly on my own. I’m going to drink a cup of tea and maybe do some drawings. I like the ide a of a quiet, calm atmosphere.”The desire to be isolated is not a new concept in Japan, home to an estimated 3.6 million “hikikomori” —a more extreme example of social recluses (隐士) who withdraw completely from society.8. What is special about the “silent cafes”?A. It provides various tea and books.B. People are not allowed to communicate.C. It has attracted many popular young people.D. It offers service by writing not by speaking.9. Which of the following accounts for the idea of being alone in Japan?A. The increasing social isolation.B. The stable economic situation.C. The rising demand for privacy.D. The rapid development of internet.10. What do we know about Higashikokubaru?A. She doesn’t like to be a nurse.B. She doesn’t like the life in big cities.C. She enjoys her solo time in a quiet place.D. She travelled to Tokyo on her work days.11. What is the best title of the passage?A. Silent cafesB. Lonely JapaneseC. One woman weddingD. Social recluses in JapanDA study showed that the experiences children have in their first few years are important. These experiences affect the development of the brain. When children receive more attention, they often have higher IQs. Babies receive information when they see, hear and feel things, which makes connections between different parts of the brain. There are a hundred trillion (万亿) connections in the brain of a three-year-old child.Researcher Judit Gervain tested how good newborns are at distinguishing different sound patterns. Her researchers produced images of the brains of babies as they heard different sound patterns. For example, one order was mu-ba-ba. This is the pattern"A-B-B". Another order was mu-ba-ge. This is the pattern “A-B-C”. The images showed that the part of the brain responsiblefor speech was more active during the “A-B-B” pattern. This shows that babies can tell the difference between different patterns. They also were sensitive to where it occurred in the order.Gervain is excited by these findings because the order of sounds is the building block of words and grammar.“Position is key to language,” she says. “If something is at the beginning or at the end, it makes a big difference: ‘John caught the bear.’ is very different from ‘The bear caught John.’”Researchers led by scientist Patricia Kuhl have found that language delivered by televisions, audio books, the Internet, or smartphones—no matter how educational—doesn’t appear to be enough for children’s brain development. They c onducted a study of nine-month-old American babies. They expected the first group who’d watched videos in Chinese to show the same kind of learning as the second group who were brought face-to-face with the same sounds. Instead they found a huge difference. The babies in the second group were able to distinguish between similar Chinese sounds as well as native listeners. But the other babies —regardless of whether they had watched the video or listened to the audio—learned nothing.12. What makes connections in a baby’s brain?A. Having a higher IQ.B. Experiencing new information.C. The baby’ early age.D. The connection with other babies.13. What did Judit Gervain and her team find in the experiment?A. Babies identify different sound patterns.B. Word order is relevant to meaning.C. Babies can well understand different words.D. A certain brain region processes language.14. What does the underlined sentence mean in Paragraph 3?A. Grammar is important in learning languages.B. Different orders have different meanings.C. Different languages have different grammar.D. Words have different sounds.15. What is the main conclusion from the study led by Patricia Kuhl?A. Babies shouldn’t watch a lot of television.B. Listening to different languages develops babies’ brain.C. Foreign languages help babies’ brain develop.D. Social communication improves babies’ brain development.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项。

AConsider it the caviar（鱼子酱）of literature: tiny eggs with wonderful taste. Poetry has inspired the human soul for thousands of years and there are those who still treasure its magnificence.

The passage is most probably from a ______.A. newspaper advertisementB. book reviewC. scientific magazineD. news reportBCancer is feared by everyone. And there is more and more fear about cancer. Not the disease itself — there is no such thing as a high incidence rates of cancer. Except for lung cancer, mostly caused by cigarette smoking, the incidence rates are not on the rise. However, some kinds of cancer are decreasing. But the fear of cancer is catching, and the country stands at risk of an anxiety. The earth itself is coming to seem like a huge carcinogen(致癌物). The ordinary, more or less, scientific statement that something between 80 and 90 percent of all cancers are due to things in the environment is taken to mean that none of us will be safe until the whole environment is “cleaned up.” This is not at all the meaning.The 80-percent calculation is based on the unthinkable differences in the incidence of cancer in various societies around the world — for example, the high incidence of liver cancer in Africa and the Far East, stomach cancer in Japan, breast cancer in Western Europe and North America, and the relatively low figures for breast cancer in Japan and parts of Africa and for liver cancer in America. These data show there may be specific environmental influences, but largely based on personal life-style, which determines the incidence of various forms of cancer in different communities — that is all the data suggest. The overall incidence of cancer, counting up all the cases, is probable roughly the same everywhere.5. According to the passage, the incidence of cancer is generally believed _____.A. to be based on inactive life styleB. to be due to anxietyC. to result from environmental influencesD. to be caused by heavy smoking6. It can be inferred from the passage that the writer’s opinion about the relationship betweencancer and environment is _____.A. positiveB. negativeC. neutralD. approving7. According to the passage, the writer seems to feel that _____.A. the risk of catching cancer is on the riseB. the whole earth is coming to seem like a huge carcinogenC. the risk of catching cancer isn’t so great as people thinkD. cancer can be cured if the environment is cleaned up8. Which of the following would be the best title for the passage?A. Cancer and EnvironmentB. The Fear Caused by CancersC. Data on Cancer IncidenceD. Cancer and its InvestigationCHigh-quality customer service is preached（宣扬）by many, but actually keeping customers happy is easier said than done.Shoppers seldom complain to the manager or owner of a retail store, but instead will warn their friends, relatives, co-workers, strangers and anyone who will listen. Store managers are often the last to hear complaints. “Storytelling hurts retailers and entertains consumers,” said Paula Courtney, President of the V erde group. “The store loses the customer, but the shopper must also find a replacement.”The most common complaints include filled parking lots, cluttered（塞满了的）shelves, overloaded racks, out-of-stock items, long check-out lines, and rude sales people.During peak shopping hours, some retailers solved the parking problems by getting moonlighting local police to work as parking attendants to direct customers to empty parking spaces. Retailers can relieve the headaches by redesigning store display, pre-stocking sales items, hiring speedy and experienced cashiers, and having sales representatives on hand to answer questions. Most importantly, sales people should be skillful and polite with angry customers.“Retailers who’re enthusiastic and friendly are more likely to smooth over issues than those who aren’t so friendly.” said Professor Stephen Hoch. “Maybe something as a greeter at the store entrance would help.”Customers can also improve future shopping experiences by filing complaints to the retailer, instead of complaining to the rest of the world. Retailers are hard-pressed to improve when they have no idea what is wrong.9. Why are store managers often the last to hear complaints?A. Most shoppers won’t complain even if they have had unhappy experiences.B. Shoppers would rather tell their unhappy experiences to people around them.C. Few customers believe the service will be improved after their complaints.D. It is difficult for customers to have easy access to store managers.10. What does Paula Courtney imply by saying the underlined sentence in paragraph 2?A. New customers are sure to replace old ones.B. It is not likely the shopper can find the same products in other stores.C. The same products can be bought in other retail stores.D. Not complaining to the manager causes the shopper some trouble too.11. What contributes most to smoothing over issues with customers?A. Manners of the salespeople.B. Hiring of efficient employees.C. Huge supply of goods for sale.D. Design of the store display.12. To achieve better shopping experiences, customers are advised to ______.A. put pressure on stores to improve their serviceB. settle their disagreements with stores in a friendly wayC. voice their dissatisfaction to store managers directlyD. shop around and make comparisons between storesDYou hear the comment all the time: the U.S. economy looks good by figures, but it doesn’t feel good. Why doesn’t ever-greater wealth promote ever-greater happiness? It is a question that dates at least to the appearance in 1958 of The Wealthy Society by John Kenneth Galbraith, who died recently at 97.The Wealthy Society is a modern classic because it helped describe a new moment in the human condition. For most of history, “hunger, sickness, and cold” threatened nearly everyone, Galbraith wrote. “Poverty was found everywhere in that world. Obviously it is not of ours.” After World War II, the fear of another Great Depression gave way to an economic growth. In the 1930s unemployment had averaged 18.2 percent; in the 1950s it was 4.5 percent.To Galbraith, materials had gone mad and would cause discontent. Through advertising, companies conditioned consumers to buy things they didn’t really want or need. Because so much spending was artificial, it would be unsatisfying. Meanwhile, government spending that would make everyone better off was being cut down because people wrongly considered government only as “a necessary bad.”It’s often said that only the rich are getting ahead; everyone else is standing still or falling behind. Well, there are many undeserving rich — overpaid chief managers, for instance. But over any meaningful period, most people’s incomes are increasing. From 1995 to 2004, people feel “squeezed” because their rising incomes often don’t satisfy their rising wants — for bigger homes, more health care, more education, and faster Internet connections.The other great disappointment is that it has not got rid of insecurity. People regard job stability as part of their standard of living. As company unemployment increased, that part has gradually become weaker. More workers fear they’ve become “the disposable American,” as Louis Uchitelle puts it in his book by the same name.Because so much previous suffering and social conflict resulted from poverty, the arrival of widespread wealth suggested utopian (乌托邦式的) possibilities. Up to a point, wealth succeeds. There is much less physical suffering than before. People are better off. Unfortunately, wealth also creates new complaints.Advanced societies need economic growth to satisfy the multiplying wants of their citizens. But the search for growth cause new anxieties and economic conflicts that disturb the social order. Wealth sets free the individual, promising that everyone can choose a unique way to self-accomplishment. But the promise is so unreasonable that it leads to many disappointments and sometimes inspires choices that have anti-social consequences, including family breakdown. Figures indicate that happiness has not risen with incomes.Should we be surprised? Not really. We’ve simply confirmed an old truth: the seeking of wealth does not always end with happiness.13.The Wealthy Society is a book ________.A. about poverty in the pastB. written by Louis UchitelleC. indicating that people are becoming worse offD. about why happiness does not rise with wealth14.According to Galbraith, people feel discontented because ________.A. materialism has run wild in modern societyB. they are in fear of another Great DepressionC. public spending hasn’t been cut down as expectedD. the government has proved to be necessary but ugly15.What does Louis Uchitelle mean by “the disposable American” ?A. People with a stable job.B. Workers who no longer have secure jobs.C. Those who see job stability as part of their living standard.D. People who have a sense of security because of their rising incomes.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项。

第I卷（选择题共70分）第一部分阅读理解（共两节，满分40分）第一节(共15小题；每小题2分，满分30分)ACoronaviruses (冠状病毒)Coronaviruses(冠状病毒) are a large group of viruses. They consist of a core of genetic material（遗传物质）surrounded by an envelope with protein spikes(蛋白棘突). This gives it the appearance of a crown. Crown in Latin is called “corona” and that’s how these viruses get their name.In this text, we’ll take a quick look at what’s currently known about the virus.Covid-2019The 2019 Novel Coronavirus was first reported December in Wuhan, central China's Hubei Province, has quickly spread across the country and around the world. It initially occurred in a group of people with pneumonia(肺炎) who’d been associated with a seafood and live animal market in the city of Wuhan.

When she was 8, her father bought her a ride in a plane. From there, she was hooked. As a teenager, she persuaded her father to pay for flying lessons, and she earned her pilot's license at 22 in 1939.In 1940，she heard an ad for volunteer pilots to help the war effort. She signed up and joined the ATA, whose task was to deliver planes from factory to base or from base to factory for repairs.At the height of World War II, 26-year-old Mary Wilkins climbed down a ladder from the cockpit (驾驶舱) of a bomber(轰炸机) at a Royal Air Force base in England.“Where's the pilot?" someone on the ground asked.“I am the pilot!" she responded. She had delivered the bomber alone—although built for a five-man crew—from its factory. People on the ground looked at her in surprise. One of them even decided to climb up the ladder to check the plane for the “missing” pilot.She was one of the “Atagirls", as they were nicknamed, who almost always flew without other crew members, compass or radio assistance. They guided themselves by using maps and following rives or railway lines. While they did not fly in combat(战斗), they faced the daily danger of attack by enemy planes. Mrs. Ellis was once shot at over Bournemouth, in southern England, by “friendly fire” from t he ground. Another time, she had a near-miss when landing in thick fog at the same time a combat Spitfire landed on the same runway from the opposite direction. That experience won her the nickname “the fog flyer" .In all, Mrs. Ellis flew more than 1,000 warplanes of 76 types—including 400 Spitfires—among more than 200 British airfields from 1942 to the end of the war in 1945.4. What does the underlined word “hooked” mean in the second paragraph?A. Touched.B. Addicted.C. Annoyed.D. Confused.5. Where did Mary Wilkins probably learn the ad for volunteer pilots?A. In a newspaper.B. In a magazine.C. On a poster.D. On the radio.6. Why did one person on the ground climb up the ladder?A. He didn't believe women could fly these planes.B. He was interested in what a bomber looked like.C. He couldn't wait to experience a ride in a bomber.D. He wanted to check if the plane was in good condition.7. What do we learn about “Atagirls”?A. They often flew in combat.B. They were often shot at by enemy.C. They often flew on their own.D. They guided themselves by radio when flying.C"What kind of rubbish are you?" This question might normally cause anger, but in Shanghai it has become a special "greeting" among people over the past week. On July 1st, the city introduced stricttrash-sorting regulations（条例)that are required to follow and expected to be used as a model for our country. Residents must divide their waste into four separate categories and toss （投放）it into specific public dustbins. They must do so at specified times, when monitors are present to ensure correct trash-tossing and to ask the nature of one's rubbish. Individuals who fail to follow the regulations face the possibility of fines and worse. They could be punished with fines of up to 200 yuan （$ 29）. For those who repeat to go against them, the government can add black marks to their credit records, making it harder for them to get bank loans or even buy train tickets.Shanghai government is responding to an obvious environmental problem. It generates 9 million tons of garbage a year, more than London's annual output, which is rising quickly. But like other cities in China, it lacks a recycling system. Instead, it has relied on trash pickers to sift（筛选）through the waste, picking out whatever can be reused. This has limits. As people get wealthier, fewer of them want to do such dirty work. The waste, meanwhile, just keeps piling up.Many residents appear to support the idea of recycling in general but are annoyed by the details. Rubbish must be divided according to whether it is food, recyclable, dry or harmful, the distinctions among which can be confusing, though there are apps to help work it out. Some have complained about the rules concerning food waste. They must put it straight in the required public bins, forcing them to tear open plastic bags and toss it by hand. What they complain most is the short periods for dropping trash, typically a couple of hours, morning and evening. Along with the monitors at the bins, this means that people go at around the same time and can keep an eye on what is being thrown out；no one wants to look bad.8.What do we know about the trash-sorting regulations in Shanghai?A. They are the first of their kind.B. They are tied to one's bank account.C. They have the highest fines.D. They're aided by monitors.9.Why has Shanghai introduced the trash-sorting regulations?A. T here are fewer and fewer trash pickers.B. I t aims to build a new recycling system.C. I t faces more and more serious garbage problems.D. P eople throw the rubbish here and there.10.What makes the residents upset most about the regulations?A. L imited time for tossing the trash.B. C onfusing distinction among the categories of trash.C. B eing fined due to improper behavior.D. B eing watched by monitors when throwing the garbage.11.What can be the best title for the text?A. A Good Way of Trash-sortingB. A New Era of Garbage ClassificationC. A Great Time in Dealing with LitterD. A n Effective Solution to Rubbish ProblemDFrom talking robots to driverless vehicles, technology has become so advanced that the previously impossible seems to occur on a daily basis. And yet—we still have no cure for the common cold.Why can't we stop the common cold? According to Peter Barlow, a scientist at Edinburgh Napier University, the main challenge lies in the many different types of cold viruses that belong to the rhinoviruses(鼻病毒). There are at least 160 types. They mutate(突变) so easily that they quickly become resistant to drugs, or learn to hide from our immune systems. In other words, a single cure isn't likely to work on every type of cold.However, researchers from Stanford University and the University of California, San Francisco, have found a possible answer. They discovered a protein(蛋白质) that the viruses need. All the viruses were unable to replicate(复制) inside cells without a gene that produces a specific protein called SETD3.To identify the gene which produces the specific protein, researchers used a gene-editing technique to test all genes in the human genome (基因组). Namely, they randomly disabled a single gene in each of the cells, so that the cells lacked one or another of every gene in our genome. These genetically modified cells were then exposed to the rhinoviruses, which cause the common cold. The team then looked at which gene was missing in cells that continued to grow. As it turned out. the one that stood out was SETD3, which makes a protein of the same name.Carette said the plan is to find a drug which can temporarily disable the protein, instead of producing genetically modified humans. “We have identified a fantastic target that all rhinoviruses require and depend on. Take that away and the virus really has no chance," said Carette.12. Which does Peter Barlow think is a problem for fighting the common cold?A. The poor immunity of patients.B. The large variety of viruses.C. The lack of enough cures.D. The side effects of drugs.13. What do we know about the gene- editing study in Paragraph 4?A. All genetically modified cells survivedB. Some genes in our genome were ignoredC. It located the gene responsible for SETD3D. It exposed the harm of the rhinoviruses.14. How should we stay away from the common cold according to Carette?A. Apply gene-editing to human genesB. Avoid contacts with colds patientsC. Prevent cold viruses from mutatingD. Develop a drug to switch off SETD315. Which of the following is the best title for the text?A. Potential defense found for cold virusesB. Secrets behind the human genesC. Real causes of the common coldD.

ago，a French art teacher named Pierre Chevalier got on a train in Lyon to go to Paris．When he started his journey，he didn't know that it was thebeginning of almost 40 years of accidents and near death experiences．During the journey，the train fell into an icy river，killing 12 passengers．Chevalier managed to swim back to the river bank．He only had a broken leg．Two years later，Chevalier was on a plane from Paris to Moscow when a door suddenly opened and he fell out．A few minutes later，the plane crashed（坠毁）；27 people were killed．Chevalier was so lucky that he landed in a haystack（干草堆）．A few years later，he was hit by a bus，but again had no serious injuries．Then a year after that，he was driving on a mountain road when he saw a truck coming straight at him．He drove the car off the road，jumped out，landed in a tree﹣and watched his car fall 100 metres down the mountain．"There are two ways you can look at it，"Chevalier said．"I'm either the world's unluckiest man，or the world's luckiest．"When a reporter asked Chevalier what he thought，he chose the"luckiest"one．Two years ago，aged 71，Chevalier bought his first lottery ticket（彩票）in 50 years and won more than 2 million．After this，a TV company in America said they wanted him to make an advertisement．At first he accepted，but then he changed his mind．Chevalier said he wouldn't fly to Los Angeles for the filming，because he didn't want to push his luck．Who knows？If he had accepted the invitation，maybe he would have had another accident．But Mr Chevalier is a lucky man．If he'd had another accident，he probably would have survived that too!（1）In

to make the advertisement？A．Because he had won 2 million．B．Because he didn't want to leave home．C．Because he didn't want to risk losing his life．D．Because he didn't like the TV company．（3）The text mainly talks about．A．a man with nine livesB．the unluckiest man in the worldC．a man who traveled around the worldD．a man who earned 2 million in a lottery13．（8分）According to a new US study，couples who expect their children to look after them in old age should hope they have daughters because daughters are twice as attentive as sons overall．The research by Angelina Grigoryeva，from Princeton University，found that，while women provide as much care for their elderly parents as they can manage，men do as little as they can get away with and often leave it to female family members．Her analysis of the family networks of 26，000 old Americans concluded that gender（性别）is one of the most important things that decide whether or not people will actively care for their elderly parents．In a paper presented at the annual conference of the American Sociological Association in San Francisco，she concludes that simply having a sister makes men likely provide less care．Using data from the University of Michigan Health and Retirement Study，a study which has been tracking a cross﹣section of over 50s for the last decade，she calculated that women provide an average of 12.3hours a month of care for elderly parents while men offer only 5.6hours．"Sons reduce their relative caregiving efforts when they have a sister，while daughters increase theirs when they have a brother．""This suggests that sons pass on parent caregiving responsibilities to their sisters．"In the UK，the 2011 Census showed that there are now around 6.5 million people with caring responsibilities，a figure which has risen by a tenth in a decade．But many are doing so at the risk of their health．The census showed that those who provide 50 hours or more of care a week while trying to hold down a fulltime job are three times more likely to be struggling with ill health than their working counterparts who are not carers．（1）According to the passage，what's the most important factor to predict if people will actively care for the elderly？A．Education．B．Gender．C．Career．D．Income．（2）The US study finds that．A．having a sister makes men less likely to look after their parentsB．sons are twice as likely as daughters to care for parents in old ageC．sons are unwilling to leave caregiving responsibilities to their sistersD．sons and daughters seem to give equal care to their parents（3）What does the author stress in the last paragraph？A．People should give up their job to care for the elderly．B．Many care providers work longer hours than others．C．Many care providers have potential health problems．D．People shouldn't pass on caring responsibilities to others．（4）The author develops the text by．A．explaining social networks of careersB．describing people' s experiencesC．analyzing various researches and dataD．comparing different gender behavior14．（8分）How do you get to Carnegie Hall（卡内基音乐厅）？"Practice，practice，practice"is the well known answer．But for some inspiring young musicians from the Afghanistan National Institute of Music in Kabul，the road to the famous concert hall was more difficult．The Afghan Youth Orchestra（AYO）is made up of young people who study at the Afghanistan National Institute of Music．It was the first orchestra created in Afghanistan in 30 years．Gulalai Norestani，14，plays a traditional string instrument．Like many students．Gulalai became an orphan when her parents were killed during the ongoingwar．Music is her salvation （救星）．"Music for me is a language of peace，" Gulalai said．"It connects people．"Milad Yousufi，18，is a piano student．"Music is my life，" he said．Milad also lost many of his family members during the war．When music was banned，he couldn't even touch a piano．So as a 12﹣year﹣old boy，he started painting and drawing．"I used to draw a piano，" he said．Finally，Milad was free to play a real piano．"Our dream came true，" he said．"It is everyone's dream to play in Carnegie Hall．"And he has more dreams．"I have a dream to continue my education in America，" he explained．"I am working hard to make that happen．Then I have a dream to come back to Afghanistan and teach and serve people．"Because of continuing limits in Afghanistan，Gulalai and Milad listen mostly to the king of classical music they played at Carnegie Hall．But Gulalai says she' s heard a bit of Jennifer Lopez and Shakira and she likes them．Milad says he has heard of Lady Gaga and Justin Bieber，but hasn't yet had a chance to listen to them．Before Milad went onstage that night with the band of Afghan kids who had survived a war，I asked him if he had ever experienced true peace．"No．not yet，" he answered，adding，"I hope I will be able to．"Later during the performance，as he played one of Carnegie Hall's famous grand pianos，the look of pure joy on his face convinced me that he found peace in music．（1）What is Gulalai's opinion on music？A．It calms her down in the war．B．It makes people understand each other．C．It is a kind of violent language．D．It saves her from the killing at war．（2）What is Milad's final aim？A．To serve his country．B．To play a real piano．C．To further study．D．To play in Carnegie．（3）What can we learn from the passage？A．Classical music is not played in Afghanistan．B．Gulalai
