AThe International Day of Disabled Persons, an international observance declared by the United Nations since 1992, is observed on December 3, aiming to promote an understanding of disability issues and get support for the rights of people with disabilities. The day takes place annually and focuses on a different issue each year. In South Africa, December 3 also marks the beginning of the Disability Awareness Month.Since the first celebration, people with disabilities have gained recognition of their rights by states across the globe and of their rightful place in society. But there is still much work ahead of us to turn those legal rights into a true revolution, in which diversity is fully accepted and lived.The estimated one billion people living with disabilities worldwide face many obstructions of inclusion in many key aspects of society. As a result, people with disabilities can't enjoy the equal rights as normal people, which include employment, education as well as social and political participation. The right to participate in public life is essential to create stable democracies , active citizenship and reduce inequalities in society.In many cases, people with disabilities must be able to fulfill their role in society. It is important to focus on the ability and not on the disability of an individual. It is important to note that disability is part of the human condition, and that all of us either are or will become disabled to one degree or another during the course of our lives.By promoting empowerment , real opportunities for disabled people are created. This supports them in setting their own priorities. Empowerment involves investing in them —in jobs, health, nutrition, education, and social protection. When disabled people are empowered, they are better prepared to take advantage of opportunities, and they can more readily accepttheir civic responsibilities.1．What is the International Day of Disabled Persons meant for？A．To raise money for the disabled.B．To stress the value of the disabled.C．To make an international celebration.D．To make able­bodied people care about the disabled.2．What does the underlined word “obstructions” in Paragraph 3 mean？A．Chances. B．Types.C． Barriers D．Regrets.3．What is the main problem for disabled people？A．The number of them is too large.B．They can't be fully accepted by society.C．Few of them seek legal rights.D．They think poorly of their role in society.BA team of engineers at Harvard University has been inspired by Nature to create the first robotic fly. The mechanical fly has become a platform for a series of new high­tech systems. Designed to do what a fly does naturally, the tiny machine is the size of a fat housefly. Its mini wings allow it to stay in the air and perform controlled flight tasks.“It's extremely important for us to think about this as a whole system and not just the sum of a bunch of individual components,” said Robert Wood, the Harvard engineeri ng professor who has been working on the robotic fly project for over a decade. A few years ago, his team got the go­ahead to start piecing together the components. “The added difficulty with a project like this is that actually none of those components are off the shelf and so we have to develop them all on our own，” he said.They engineered a series of systems to start and drive the robotic fly. “The seeminglysimple system which just moves the wings has a number of interdependencies on the individual components, each of which individually has to perform well, but then has to be matched well to everything it's connected to，” said Wood. The flight device was built into a set of power, computation, sensing and control systems. Wood says the success of the project proves that the flying robot with these tiny components can be built and manufactured.While this first robotic flyer is linked to a small, off­board power source, the goal is eventually to equip it with a built­in power source, so that it might some day perform data­gathering work at rescue sites，in farmers' fields or on the battlefield. “Basically it should be able to take off, land and fly around，” he said.Wood says the design offers a new way to study flight mechanics and control at insect­scale. Yet, the power, sensing and computation technologies on board could have much broader applications. “You can start thinking about using them to answer open scientific questions, you know, to study biology in ways that would be difficult with the animals, but using these robots instead，” he said. “So there are a lot of technologies and open interesting scientific questions that are really what drives us on a day­to­day basis.”4．The difficulty the team of engineers met with while making the robotic fly was that ________.A．they had no model in their mindB．they did not have sufficient timeC．they had no ready­made componentsD．they could not assemble the components5．It can be inferred from paragraphs 3 and 4 that the robotic fly ________.A．can just fly in limited areas at the present timeB．consists of a flight device and a control systemC．can collect information from many sourcesD．has been put into wide application6．Which of the following can be learned from the passage？A．The robotic fly is designed to learn about insects.B．Animals are not allowed in biological experiments.C．There used to be few ways to study how insects fly.D．Wood's design can replace animals in some experiments.CRobert Ballard was born in 1942. From an early age, he loved the sea. Baliard grew up in Southern California. He spent his free time at the beach near his home. He enjoyed fishing and swimming. He even learned to dive.When Ballard wasn't at the ocean, he loved reading about it. At age 10, he read 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea, a book which describes the undersea adventures of Captain Nemo. Ballard decided he wanted to be like Captain Nemo when he grew up. His parents helped him follow his dream.Ballard was a hard­working student. He spent many years learning all he could ab out the ocean. By the age of 28, he was an expert. In 1970, he took a job as a scientist at Woods Hole Oceanographic Institute in Massachusetts. There he studied underwater mountains of the Atlantic Ocean. He came up with ways to predict volcanoes under the oceans. Working with other scientists, Ballard also found previously unknown sea animals. These animals lived far below the ocean's surface, where scientists had believed no animals could live.By the 1980s, Ballard's interests changed. He developed unmanned vehicles to explore the ocean bottom. His first find, the well­known ship Titanic, made Ballard famous. He was not happy with just one big find, however. He looked for—and found—other well­known ships. One was the German battleship Bismarck. Another was the U．S.S. Yorktown, an aircraft carrier that sank during World War Ⅱ.Today Robert Ballard is still an underwater explorer. He also heads an organization that encourages students to learn about science. Ballard hopes that some of the students will followin his footsteps. After all, the world's huge oceans are mostly unknown. Who knows what remains to be discovered under the sea？7．When Ballard worked at Woods Hole Oceanographic Institute, he ________.A．explored the undersea world by shipB．thought of ideas to predict underwater volcanoesC．found some unknown sea animals aloneD．set up an organization to teach students science8．Which is the correct order of the events mentioned in the text about Ballard？a．He found the German battleship Bismarck.b．He read a book about Captain Nemo.c．He found the famous ship Titanic.d．He became an expert in science.A．b—c—d—a B．d—b—c—aC．d—c—a—b D．b—d—c—a9．What can we learn from the text？A．Ballard was greatly influenced by 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea.B．Ballard didn't like fishing and swimming in his childhood.C．Ballard's parents felt disappointed at his undersea adventures.D．Human beings have explored more than half of the sea.DNeed a Job This Summer？The provincial government and its partners offer many programs to help students find summer jobs. The deadlines and what you need to apply depend on the program.Not a student？ Go to the government webiste to learn about programs and online tools available to help people under 30 build skills, find a job or start businesses all year round.Jobs for YouthIf you are a teenager living in certain parts of the province, you could be eligible for this program, which provides eight weeks of paid employment along with training.Who is eligible：Youth 15—18 years old in select communitiesSummer CompanySummer Company provides students with hands­on business training and awards of up to $3,000 to start and run their own summer businesses.Who is eligible：Students aged 15—29, returning to school in the fall.Stewardship Youth Ranger ProgramYou could apply to be a Stewardship Youth Ranger and work on local natural resource management projects for eight weeks this summer.Who is eligible：Students aged 16 or 17 at time of hire，but not turning 18 before December 31 this year.Summer Employment OpportunitiesThrough the Summer Employment Opportunities program, students are hired each year in a variety of summer positions across the Provincial Public Service, its related agencies and community groups.Who is eligible：Students aged 15 or older. Some positions require students to be 15 to 24 or up to 29 for persons with a disability.10．What is special about Summer Company？A．It requires no training before employment.B．It provides awards for running new businesses.C．It allows one to work in the natural environment.D．It offers more summer job opportunities.11．What is the age range required by Stewardship Youth Ranger Program？A．15—18. B．15—24.C．15—29. D．16—17.12．Which program favors the disabled？A．Jobs for Youth.B．Summer Company.C．Summer Employment Opportunities.D．Stewardship Youth Ranger Program.ECan dogs and cats live in perfect harmony in the same home？People who are thinking about adopting a dog as a friend for their cats are worried that they will fight. A recent research has found a new recipe of success. According to the study, if the cat is adopted before the dog, and if they are introduced when still young （less than 6 months for cats, a year for dogs）, it is highly probable that the two pets will get along swimmingly. Two­thirds of the homes interviewed reported a positive relationship between their cat and dog.However, it wasn't all sweetness and light. There was a reported coldness between the cat and dog in 25% of the homes, while aggression and fighting were observed in 10% of the homes. One reason for this is probably that some of their body signals were just opposite. For example, when a cat turns its head away it signals aggression, while a dog doing the same signals submission.In homes with cats and dogs living peacefully, researchers observed a surprising behavior. They are learning how to talk each other's language. It is a surprise that cats can learn how to talk “dog”，and dogs can learn how to talk “cat”．What's interesting is that both cats and dogs have appeared to develop their intelligence. They can learn how to read each other's body signals, suggesting that the two may have more in common than we previously suspected. Once familiar with each other's presence and body language, cats and dogs can play together, greet each other nose to nose, and enjoy sleeping together on the sofa. They can easily share the same water bowl and in some cases groom each other.The significance of the research on cats and dogs may go beyond pets — to people who don't get along, including neighbors, colleagues at work, and even world superpowers. If cats and dogs can learn to get along, surely people have a good chance.13．The underlined word “swimmingly” in Paragraph 1 is closest in meaning to “without ________”．A．a message B． delayC．introduction D．a problem14．Some cats and dogs may fight when ________.A．they are cold to each otherB．they look away from each otherC．they misunderstood each other's signalsD．they are introduced at an early age15．What can we human beings learn from cats and dogs？A．We should learn to live in harmony.B．We should know more about animals.C．We should live in peace with animals.D．We should learn more body languages.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。

This 10,000-acre cattle ranch (牧场) is the ideal reunion spot for horse-back-riding families, and there’s also a spa for the family members who would prefer to relax.Delaware—Cape Henlopen State Park, LewesEnjoy a beachside reunion at one of Delaware’s most scenic state parks. The pavilion (大帐篷) is available for rent, so make your base camp at the group site as you have fun at the two beaches and 18-hole golf course.

Which spot offers history education?A. Doublehead Resort.B. Whitney Mountain Lodge.C. Cape Henlopen State Park.D. The Alisal Guest Ranch and Resort.3. In which section of a magazine can you read the text?A. Daily life.B. Travel guide.C. Entertainment.D. Environment.BI enjoy life because I am endlessly interested in people and their growth. My interest leads me to widen my knowledge of people, and this in turn makes me believe in the common goodness of mankind. I believe that the normal human heart is good since their birth. That is, it’s born sensitive and feeling eager to be approved and to approve, hungry for simple happiness and the chance to live.Like Confucius, I am absorbed in the wonder of the earth, and the life on it. With a great faith in the human heart and its power to grow toward the light, I find here are reasons enough for hope and confidence in the future of mankind. The common sense of people will surely prove that mutual (相互的) support and cooperation are only sensible for the security and happiness of all. Such faith keeps me continually ready to do what one person can toward shaping the environment in which the human being can grow with freedom. This environment, I believe, is based upon the necessity for security and friendship.I take heart in a promising fact that the future world will contain food supplies enough for the entire earth population. Our knowledge of medical science will be sufficient to improve the health of the whole human race. Our resources and education, if administered on a world scale, will lift the intelligence of the race.Half a century ago, few people thought of world food, health and education. Many are thinking today of these things. Now I find my only questions about this: Are there enough people now who believe? Is there enough time left for the wise to act?

Help People in NeedCPlaying tennis regularly could help keep people off death, but football, rugby and running may not help people to live longer, a study suggests.A study followed more than 80,000 people for an average of nine years to find out if certain sports protected them against early death. It found that people who played racket sports regularly were the least likely to die over the study period, reducing their individual risk by 47 percent compared with people who did no exercise. Swimmers also reduced their chance of death by 28 percent, aerobics (有氧运动) fans by 27 percent and cyclists by 15 percent. Yet running appeared to have no impact at all on dying early, and neither did playing football or rugby.Scientists say the difference may lie in the social aspect which goes alongside sports like tennis and squash (壁球), which often involve clubs and organized activities outside of the game. It means that people often have larger social net-works and tend to keep up activities into later life, both of which are proven to be good for health.In contrast, people who play team sports often do not move onto a new sport once their teams break up for family, or injury reasons. They become watchers rather than participants in their chosen activity.The researchers found that playing racket sports was associated with a 56 percent lower risk from heart death. Similarly, swimmers lowered their heart disease or stroke risk by 41 percent, and people who took part in activities like aerobics, dance or gymnastics lowered their risk by 36 percent. But again running, football and rugby had no significant impact on heart deaths.However, other experts argue that this study must not be misinterpreted as showing that running and football do not protect against heart disease. In this study both runners and footballers had a lower rate of death from heart disease.8. Which sport has hardly any impact on protecting people against early death?A. Cycling.B. Swimming.C.

After months of testing an option to hide likes in select international markets, Instagram, which is owned by Facebook（FB）, has already been testing hiding likes in seven other countries, including Canada, Ireland and Australia. For years, likes have been central to how celebrities, brands, politicians and everyday users experience Instagram and Facebook. It's a way of measuring popularity and success. But in recent months, Instagram has been rethinking how likes contribute to making its platform more toxic. Now it's considering a change.The total number of likes on posts — which appear as hearts on the app ——will disappear from Instagram's main feed, profile pages and permalink（永久链接）pages. The owner of the account can still see their own likes, but their followers won't know the count.CNN Business previously spoke with users in countries with the test. The majority felt this move would improve well-being on the app. Instagram is the most detrimental（不利的，有害的）social networking app for young people's mental health, such as negatively impacting body image, according to one study.But other users and psychologists said hiding likes won't fix everything. The test doesn't address some of the key ways that activity on Instagram can impact the well-being of users, including bullying, feeling left out and thinking other people's lives are better than their own.Renee Engeln, a psychology professor at Northwestern University, voiced his opinion that the biggest impact of Instagram is the content and the exposure to this constant stream of perfected images is what seems to hurt psychologically. Plus, users can still see their own likes ——and feel badly if their posts don't perform well.12. How do users experience Instagram in this passage?A. By giving likes.B. By hiding likes.C.
