My trusty printer was busy producing an important report1it simply stopped . After fifteen minutes of trying to repair, I decided to buy a new printer. Upon my return, my heart froze to see my house on fire.2having spent much of my life writing, I was speechless when facing this situation. I was lost for adequate words3(describe) the sick, sinking feeling of seeing my home, business, and belongings going up in flames along with photographs and memories4(collect) over a lifetime. But the panic that filled my shocked heart in that awful moment was for the nine cats that shared my homeafter5(rescue) from situations of ill-treatment and abandonment.Responding to an early security—system warning, the amazing firefighters arrivedimmediately,6the chemical smoke had already caused deaths. I examined and kissed each cat goodbye, extremely grateful that they had passed gently, without injuries or burns.Only animal lovers really understand the unbelievable impact7the loss of one beloved four-legged family member can have on your heart, mind and soul. The loss of so many dearly loved creatures sent me in great sorrow.After staying with a friend of mine for a couple of weeks, I was relocated to a furnished apartment. One evening, about a month after moving in, I8(occupy) in writing a mystery novel, and at that time a "meow" sounded from outside the apartment door. Was it my mind playing tricks again? More than once I had heard, seen or felt the brush of one of my departed funny roommates. The meow grew louder and more repetitive. Curious, I opened the door.Sitting on the doorstep was a kitten with a black coat and alert eyes. Aneighbor9(walk) by picked him up and began petting him. When I remarked how cute her kitten was, she explained that it had been born under a bridge and looked around for food. This kitty-loving neighbor was quick to offer an extra litter box if I was interested in giving him a home. My immediate reaction was "that's all I need !" without hesitation she put the cute kitten down. I thanked her and closed the door, determined to just let him stay10 a real home could be found.二、选词填空2、【来源】 2017年上海闵行区高三二模第31~40题10分There are two basic ways see growth: one as a product, the other as a process. People have generally viewed personal growth as a(n)1result or product that can easily be identified and measured. The worker who gets a promotion the students whose grades improve, the foreigner who learns a new language—all these are examples of people who have measurable results to show for their efforts.By2—the process of personal growth is much more difficult to determine, since by definition it is a journey and not the specific signposts or landmarks along the way. The process is not the road itself, but rather the attitude and feelings people have, their caution or courage, as we3new experiences and unexpected obstacles. In this process, the journey never really ends. There are always new ways to experience the world, new ideas to try, new challenges to accept.In order to grow, to travel new roads, people need to have a4to take risks. And we are supposed to be ready to face the5, and to accept the possibility that we may "fail" at first . How we see ourselves as we try a new way of being is essential to our ability to grow. Do we perceive ourselves as quick an curious? If so, then we tend to take more chances and to be more open to unfamiliar experiences. Do we thinkwe're6and shy? Then our7of shyness can cause us to hesitate , to move slowly , and not to take a step until we know the ground is safe. Do we think we're slow to adapt to change to change or that we're not smart enough to cope with a new challenge? If so, then we are likely to take a more8role or not try at all.These feelings of insecurity and self-doubt are both unavoidable and necessary if we are to change and grow. We will9to grow, if we do not confront and overcome these internal fears and doubts, and if we protect ourselves too much.

But when we're acting as leaders, the circumstance are2. The act of apology is carried out not merely at the level ofthe3but also at the level of the institution. It is a performance in which every word or expression4, as they become part of the public record. Refusing to apologize can be smart, or it can be stupid. So, readiness to apologize can be seen as a sign of strong character or as a sign of weakness.Why now ?The question of whether leaders should apologize publicly has never beenmore5. During the last decade or so, the United States in particular has developed an apology culture—apologies of all kinds and for all sorts of wrongdoings are made farmore6than before. More newspaper writers have written about the growing importance of7—apologies. Meanwhile, more and more articles, advice colums, and radio and television programs have similarly dealt with the subjectof8apologies . Although they are not carried out in the public places, we can't neglect the importance of this performance.Why9?Why do we apologize? Why do we ever put ourselves in situations likely to be difficult, embarrassing, and even risky? Leaders who apologize publicly could be an easy targetfor10. They are expected to appear strong and capable. And whether they make public statements of any kind, their individual and institutional reputations are in danger. Clearly, then, leaders should not apologize often. For a leader to express apology, there needs to be astrong11. Leaders will publicly apologize if and when they think the costs of doing so are lower than the costs of not doing so.Why refuse ?Why is it that leaders so often try every means to12apologies, even when a public apology seems to be in order? Their reasons can be individual or institutional. Because leaders are public figures, their apologies are likely to be personally uncomfortable andeven13risky. Apologies can be signals for admitting mistakes and mistakes can be an indication of job insecurity. Leaders may also be afraid that14of a mistake will damage or destroy the organization for which they are responsible.

The incoming generation, after all, doesn't do e-mail. Oh, they might have an account. They use it only as we would a fax machine: as a means to communicate with old-school folks like their parents or to fulfill the sign-up requirements of Websites. They rarely check it, though.Today's instant electronic memos—such as texting and Facebook and Twitter messages—are more direct, more concentrated, more efficient. They go without the salutation（称呼语）and the signoff; we already know the "to" and "from". Many corporations are moving to messaging networks for exactly that reason: more signal, less noise and less time. This trend is further evidence that store-and-forward systems such as e-mail and voicemail are outdated. Instead of my leaving you a lengthy message that you pick up later, I can now send you an unobtrusive, easily-consumed message that you can read—and respond to—on the go. The decline of e-mail corresponds neatly to the dawn of the mobile era. Instantaneous（及时）written messages are different. These are neatly tailored to fit in just about any time: before a movie, in a taxi, waiting for lunch. And because these notes are invariably brief, they're a natural for smartphone typing. With these formats, you also have control over who can correspond with you, which you usually don't in e-mail. And especially on Facebook, instant messaging can take on the character of a chat room, where several people can talk at once.Does this mean e-mail is on its way to the dustbin of digital history? Not necessarily. E-mail still has certain advantages. On the other hand, tweets and texts feel TAL#NBSP ephemeral—you read them, then they're gone, into an endless string, e-mail still feels like something you have and that you can file, search and return to later. It's easy to imagine that it will continue to feel more appropriate for formal communications: agreements, important news, longer explanations.So, e-mail won't go away completely. Remember, we've been through a transition like this not so long ago: when e-mail was on the rise, people said that postal mail was dead. That's not how it works. Postal mail found its smaller niche, and so will e-mail. Technology rarely replaces an institution completely; it just adds new avenues.(1) What would the incoming generation like to do with their e-mail accounts?A. Contact close friendsB. Send long messagesC. Fill in some formsD. Communicate with their colleagues(2) Which of the following is mainly discussed in the paragraph 3 and 4?A. The possible reasons behind the decline of e-mail.B. The likes and dislikes of the young generation.C. The rapid development of e-communication channels.D. Evidence about the uncertain future of easily-consumed messages.(3) What does the underlined word "TAL#NBSP ephemeral"in paragraph 5 mean?A. Automatically-sendingB. Randomly-writtenC. Hardly-recognizedD. Shortly-appearing(4) According to the passage, which of the following statements is true?A. It's too early to determine the decline of e-mail.B. E-mail has reasons to exist on its own advantage.C. E-mail, just like postal mail has come to its end.D. We should feel sorry for the decline of e-mail.5、【来源】 2017年上海闵行区高三二模（B篇）第60~62题6分(1) The Fox News review mentioned the first party scene in the film toA. reveal the fact that Nick wants to know more about Gatsby.B. show the version of Rhapsody in Blue matches the film well.C. prove that the director is good at combining visual and music.D. convince us that the first scene is perfectly filmed by the director.(2) According to Time Magazine, what did Baz Luhrmann do to make the film a success?A.

Mysterious and devoted.6、【来源】 2017年上海闵行区高三二模第63~66题8分2017年上海松江区高三二模（C篇）第63~66题8分The British Medical Journal recently featured a strong response to what was judged an inappropriately merciful reaction by a medical school to a student cheating in an examination. Although we have insufficient reliable data about the extent of this phenomenon, its prevention, or its effective management, much can be concluded and acted upon on the basis of common sense.There is general agreement that there should be zero tolerance of cheating in a profession based on trust and one on which human lives depend. It is reasonable to assume that cheaters in medical school will be more likely than others to continue to act dishonestly with patients, colleagues, and government.The behaviors under question are multifactorial in origin. There are familial（家庭的）, religious, and cultural values that are acquired long before medical school. For example, countries, cultures, and subcultures exist where bribes and dishonest behaviour are very normal. There are secondary schools in which neither staff nor students tolerate cheating and others where cheating is common; there are homeswhich cultivate young people with high standards of moral behaviour and others which leave moral training to the harmful influence of television and the market place.Medical schools reflect society and cannot be expected to remedy all the ills of a society. The selection process of medical students might be expected to favour applicants with positive moral behaviour. Medical schools should be the major focus of attention for cultivating future doctors with moral sensitivity. Unfortunately there are troubling data that suggest that during medical school the moral behaviour of medical students does not necessarily improve; indeed, moral development may actually stop or even regress（倒退）.It is critical that the academic and clinical leaders of the institution set a personal example on moral behaviour. Medical schools must do something to make sure that their students are expected to be clear from day one. The development of a school's culture of moral behaviour requires cooperation with the students in which they play an active role in its creation and developing. Moreover, the school's examination system and general treatment of students must be fair. Finally, the treatment of infractions must be firm, fair, transparent（透明的）.(1) What does the author say about cheating in medical schools?A. Extensive research has been done about this phenomenon.B. We have sufficient data to prove that prevention is possible.C. We know that this phenomenon exists in every medical school.D. We still need more reliable data to know how serious it is.(2) According to the author, it is important to prevent cheating in medical schoolsbecause.A. the medical profession is based on trustB. there is zero tolerance of cheating in medicineC. the medical profession depends on the governmentD. cheating exists extensively in medical schools(3) Which of the following statements will the author probably agree with?A. Medical schools should make a less competitive environment for students.B. Outstanding people should create a set of moral standards to be followed.C. Medical students should be positive in creating and preserving moral behavior.D. We should focus on the cause-and-effect of the cheating in exams in medical schools.(4) Which of the following can be implied from the passage?A. It makes little sense to talk about medical school student cheating in exams.B. Medical schools haven't been doing well to help students develop morally.C. Cheating in exams is tolerable outride of medical school circle.D. Elimination of exams helps cultivate healthier characters of medical school students.五、信息匹配7、【来源】 2017年上海闵行区高三二模第67~70题8分2017年上海松江区高三二模第67~70题8分The worst time to look for a job is when you feel desperate and must have a new one immediately.1If you are not in need of an immediate career change, here are ways you can improve your long-term career prospects today:Identify at least two different roles. You do not have to be qualified for these positions today, nor do they have to exist in your company. However, these roles should be related to your current skill set. They are career options that look interesting.2Pay close attention to what appeals to you, and write it down. This will give insight into your motivations and targets.Subscribe to a career specific magazine. Knowledge is power in the workplace. All businesses must stay relevant to their customers in order to win the competitions and increase revenue（收益）. Reading about industry trends, advancements and success stories keeps you in touch with market conditions. This information allows you to see which companies and professionals are leading the pack. You can follow their examples in your own workplace.3Do exceptional work. In any role, there is a way to perform at your best. Look for ways to deliver a top performance. Show up early, be flexible to new assignments, have a positive attitude, cooperate with other departments, pay attention to the little details.Be professionally curious. Talk to people about their careers. Learn more about how success is measured in other roles, departments and companies. Ask people their thoughts on different industries.4People hire people. You never know what connections may be relevant when you start your next job search, so develop a habit of making good connections no matter where you go. Take the time to learn about others, and be helpful when you can.As in all things in life, getting in front of a different task early is always less stressful than reacting to a career surprise. Changing jobs is to be expected. No matter how secure you feel today, the time will come when either you or your employer decide it is time to change.A. If you associate with distinguished people, you are likely to find yourself with better opportunities.B. Challenge yourself to expand your business knowledge through interactions with people at regular time.C. In addition, the chances, if any, are low that you can find a satisfactory job in an economic situation like this.D. Once you have a couple of targets, think about why and what interests you.E. That is to say, the people you keep company with determine your character development.F. Job searching under pressure often results in nervous interviewing and decision-making from relatively few options.六、阅读简答8、【来源】 2017年上海闵行区高三二模第71题5分2017年上海松江区高三二模第71题5分Read the following passage. Summarize the main idea and the main points of the passage in no more than 60 words. Use your own words as far as possible.There are various means consumers can do if they find that an item they bought is faulty or in some other way does not live up to the manufacturer's claims. A simple and common method used by many consumer is to complain directly to the store manager. In general, the "higher up" his or her complaint, the faster he or she can expect it to be settled. In such a case, it is usually settled in the consumer's favor, assuming he or she has a just claim.Consumers should complain in person whenever possible, but if they cannot get to the place of purchase, it is acceptable to phone or write the complaint in a letter.Complaining is usually most effective when it is done politely but firmly, and especially when the consumer can demonstrate what is wrong with the item in question. If this cannot be done, the consumer will succeed best by presenting specific information as to what is wrong, rather than by making general statements. For example, "The left speaker does not work at all and the sound coming out of the right one is unclear" is better than "This stereo does not work". The store manager may advise the consumer to writeto the manufacturer. If so, the consumer should do this, stating the complaint as politely and firmly as possible. If a polite complaint does not achieve the desired result, the consumer can go to a step further. She or he can threaten to take the seller to court or report the seller to a private or public organization responsible for protecting consumer's rights.七、翻译9、【来源】 2017年上海闵行区高三二模第72~76题10分Translate the following sentences into English, using the words given in the brackets.(1) 看孩子们在沙滩上打排球很有趣。

The Earth's temperature is rising, and this is having a significant impact on our planet.One of the main causes of climate change is the burning of fossil fuels.

Rising sea levels threaten coastal communities, extreme weather events are becoming more frequent, and biodiversity is being lost. It is clear that we need to take action to address this problem.One way to combat climate change is to reduce our carbon footprint. This means using less energy, recycling more, and choosing sustainable products. Another way is to support renewable energy sources, such as solar and wind power.It is important that we all take responsibility for our actions and work together to protect our planet.

A. fulfillment B. statement C. occupation D. strategySection BDirections:Read the following three passages. Each passage is followed by several questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A. B, C and D. Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage you have just read.(A)If your in-box is currently reporting unread messages in the hundreds or thousands, you might have a hard time believing the news: e-mail is on the decline.At first blush, that might seem to be the case. The incoming generation, after all, doesn't do e-mail. Oh, they might have an account. They use it only as we would a fax machine: as a means to communicate with old-school folks like their parents or to fulfill the sign-up requirements of Web sites. They rarely check it, though.Today's instant electronic memos—such as texting and Facebook and Twitter messages—are more direct, more concentrated, more efficient. They go without the salutation(称呼语) and the signoff; we already know the “to” and “from.” Many corporations are moving to messaging networks for exactly that reason: more signal, less noise and less time. This trend is further evidence that store-and-forward systems such as e-mail and voicemail are outdated. Instead of my leaving you a lengthy message that you pick up later, I can now send you an unobtrusive, easily -consumed message that you can read—and respond to—on the go.The decline of e-mail corresponds neatly to the dawn of the mobile era. Instantaneous(及时) written messages are different. These are neatly tailored to fit in just about any time: before a movie, in a taxi, waiting for lunch. And because these notes are invariably brief, they're a natural for smartphone typing. With these formats, you also have control over who can correspond with you, which you usually don't in e-mail. And especially on Facebook, instant messaging can take on the character of a chat room, where several people can talk at once.Does this mean e-mail is on its way to the dustbin of digital history? Not necessarily. E-mailstill has certain advantages. On the other hand , tweets and texts feel ephemeral—you read them, then they're gone, into an endless string, e-mail still feels like something you have and that you can file, search and return to later. It's easy to imagine that it will continue to feel more appropriate for formal communications: agreements, important news, longer explanations.So, e-mail won't go away completely. Remember, we've been through a transition like this not so long ago: when e-mail was on the rise, people said that postal mail was dead. That's not how it works. Postal mail found its smaller niche, and so will e-mail. Technology rarely replaces an institution completely; it just adds new avenues.56. What would the incoming generation like to do with their e-mail accounts?A. Contact close friendsB. Send long messagesC. Fill in some formsD. Communicate with their colleagues57. Which of the following is mainly discussed in the paragraph 3 and 4?A. The possible reasons behind the decline of e-mailB. The likes and dislikes of the young generationC. The rapid development of e-communication channelsD. Evidence about the uncertain future of easily –consumed messages58. What does the underlined word “ephemeral” in paragraph 5 mean ?A. Automatically –sendingB. Randomly –writtenC. Hardly –recognizedD. Shortly –appearing59. According to the passage , which of the following statements is true ?A. It’s too early to determine the decline of e-mailB. E-mail has reasons to exist on its own advantageC. E-mail , just like postal mail has come to its endD. We should feel sorry for the decline of e-mail(B)A. reveal the fact that Nick wants to know more about Gatsby.B. show the version of Rhapsody in Blue matches the film well.C. prove that the director is good at combining visual and music.D. convince us that the first scene is perfectly filmed by the director.61. According to Time Magazine, what did Baz Luhrmann do to make the film a success?A. He adapted the story in the novel as he wished.B. He made the film more powerful than the book.C. He mixed his style with the elegance of the book.D. He changed the story to meet his own style.62. Which of the following can be used to describe Gatsby?A. Faithful and warm-hearted.B. Charming and professional.C. Selfish and timid.D. Mysterious and devoted.(C)The British Medical Journal recently featured a strong response to what was judged an inappropriately merciful reaction by a medical school to a student cheating in an examination. Although we have insufficient reliable data about the extent of this phenomenon, its prevention, or its effective management, much can be concluded and acted upon on the basis of common sense. There is general agreement that there should be zero tolerance of cheating in a profession based on trust and one on which human lives depend. It is reasonable to assume that cheaters in medical school will be more likely than others to continue to act dishonestly with patients, colleagues, and government.The behaviors under question are multifactorial in origin. There are familial(家庭的), religious, and cultural values that are acquired long before medical school. For example, countries, cultures, and subcultures exist where bribes and dishonest behaviour are very normal. There are secondary schools in which neither staff nor students tolerate cheating and others where cheating is common; there are homes which cultivate young people with high standards of moral behaviour and others which leave moral training to the harmful influence of television and the market place.Medical schools reflect society and cannot be expected to remedy all the ills of a society. The selection process of medical students might be expected to favour applicants with positive moral behaviour. Medical schools should be the major focus of attention for cultivating future doctors with moral sensitivity. Unfortunately there are troubling data that suggest that during medical school the moral behaviour of medical students does not necessarily improve; indeed, moral development may actually stop or even regress（倒退）.It is critical that the academic and clinical leaders of the institution set a personal example on moral behaviour. Medical schools must do something to make sure that their students are expected to be clear from day one. The development of a school's culture of moral behaviour requires cooperation with the students in which they play an active role in its creation and developing. Moreover, the school's examination system and general treatment of students must be fair. Finally, the treatment of infractions must be firm, fair, transparent(透明的)63.

Summary WritingDirections: Read the following passage. Summarize the main idea and the main points of the passage in no more than 60 \words. Use your own words as far as possible.There are various means consumers can do if they find that an item they bought is faulty or in some other way does not live up to the manufacturer’s claims. A simple and common method used by many consumer is to complain directly to the store manager. In general, the "higher up" his or her complaint, the faster he or she can expect it to be settled. In such a case, it is usually settled in the consumer's favor, assuming he or she has a just claim.Consumers should complain in person whenever possible, but if they cannot get to the place of purchase, it is acceptable to phone or write the complaint in a letter.Complaining is usually most effective when it is done politely but firmly, and especially when the consumer can demonstrate what is wrong with the item in question. If this cannot be done, the consumer will succeed best by presenting specific information as to what is wrong, rather than by making general statements. For example, “The left speaker does not work at all and the sound coming out of the right one is unclear” is better than “This stereo does not work”. The store manager may advise the consumer to write to the manufacturer. If so, the consumer should do this, stating the complaint as politely and firmly as possible. If a polite complaint does not achieve the desired result, the consumer can go to a step further. She or he can threaten to take the seller to court or report the seller to a private or public organization responsible for protecting consumer’s rights.V.
