Thesedays we need to ___32___ our strengths and constantly improve our skills. Business guru Heinz Landau suggests spending ten percent of your time on ___33___ improvement; for example, learning a language or a new computer programme.

Reading ComprehensionSection ADirections：For each blank in the following passages there are four words or phrases marked A, B, C, and D. Fill in each blank with the word or phrase that best fits the context.Where do new words come from? Few are purely ___41___, in the sense of being coined from a string of sounds chosen more or less at random. Most tend to be existing words given new meaning. ___42___, a word changes its parts of speech. And in some of the most creative instances, people chop words and ___43___ them to make new ones.“New Danish Words, With Origin”a book by Jorgen Norby Jensen, shows how ___44___ new Danish forms are created by Danes from Danish roots for specifically Danish circumstances. Instead, the great majority come, one way or another, from English.The ___45___ examples are those that are borrowed wholesale. Mr Jensen offers“foodie”，“selfie”，“clickbait”，“blog”and“Brexit”. Words of more exotic（国外的）origin include“emoji”and“barista”，which have their origins in Japanese and Italian. But these too, Mr Jensen writes, come through English, not ___46___ from those languages.In another category are“___47___”words and expressions that are unknown to English-speakers. Danes have long said that someone who is fresh and ready to go is“fit for fight”. Such faux-anglicisms are common in other languages too: the German Handy（mobile phone）or Kicker（table football），or the French tennisman and tenniswoman. Although linguistic（语言学的）experts in these countries ___48___ these words—it is bad enough to have to borrow English words, but even worse to counterfeit（造假）them, they cannot seem to stop them. But the book of new Danish words shows an even deeper kind of ___49___. Even where words appear Danish, they are often simply part-for-part translations of English words: vejvrede is“road rage”，undskyld mit franske is“pardon my French”，and svingvaelger,“swing voter”. This shows that globalisation is not only in the surface traffic of words, but in the deeper exchange of ___50___.This is not to say that other languages do not ___51___ coin their own words anymore. InDannish, svenskerhar and bundeslighar,“Swede hair”or“Bundesliga hair”，both refer to the cut known in English as a mullet. And curling-foraeldre,“curling parents”，is an interesting ___52___ on“helicopter parents”: rather than hovering over their children, they sweep all obstacles out of their way.So English borrowing is not entirely ___53___ native creativity, even if the heavy thumbprint of English on virtually every language in the globalized world is increasingly clear. This is not because English is particularly wonderful or flexible in itself; it is more to do with the influence of innovations from English speaking countries.It may be that the spread of concepts from English out, rather than the other way round, is in fact to the discredit of the English-speaking world. Words spread from English because people learn English; cultural secrets are more likely to be ___54___ in other cultures where outsiders cannot find them. Perhaps English speakers are the real ___55___ in this exchange.41. A. invented B. chosen C. pronounced D. known42. A. Without any reason B. On the wholeC. To some degreeD. In other cases43. A. re-read B. repeated C. re-discover D. recombine44. A. often B. rarely C. slowly D. fast45. A. obvious B. strange C. abstract D. conflicting46. A. reasonably B. surprisingly C. directly D. necessarily47. A. German B. Danish C. English D. French48. A. criticize B. accept C. use D. remove49. A. knowledge B. influence C. concern D. prejudice50. A. standards B. promises C. statements D. concepts51. A. apparently B. creatively C. purposefully D. patiently52. A. remark B. twist C. emphasis D. attack53. A. replacing B. promoting C. demanding D. rewarding54. A. introduced B. revealed C. buried D. protected55. A. importers B. exporters C. gainers D. losersSection 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 you watch wolves, it’s hard to escape t he conclusion that perhaps no two species are more alike behaviorally than wolves and humans. We can easily recognize the social structures in wolf packs. No wonder human males often face pressure to measure up as“alpha”males—to“wolf up”，as it were. The te rm alpha male implies a man who at every moment demonstrates that he’s in control in the home and who can become aggressive.This alpha male stereotype（固定印象）comes from a misunderstanding of the real thing. “The main characteristic of an alpha male wolf,” the wolf researcher Rick McIntyre told me as we were watching gray wolves in Yellowstone National Park, “is a quiet confidence, quietself-assurance.”The point is, alpha males are not aggressive. There is an evolutionary logic to it.“Imagine two wolf packs, or two human tribes,” McIntyre said. “Which is more likely to survive and reproduce: the one whose members are more cooperative, more sharing, less violent with one another, or the group whose members are beating each other up and competing with one another?”McIntyre has spent 20 years watching and studying wolves in Yellowstone for the National Park Service. He rises early, uses radio telemetry to locate a pack through a radio-collared pack member, then heads out with his spotting scope to observe the animals, keeping careful notes of their activities. In all that time, he has rarely seen an alpha male act aggressively toward the pack’s other members.This does not mean that alpha males are not tough when they need to be. One famous wolf in Yellowstone whose radio collar number, 21, became his name, was considered a “super wolf” by the people who closely observed the arc of his life. He was fierce in defense of family and apparently never lost a fight with a rival pack. Yet within his own pack, one of his favorite things was to wrestle with little wolves and to pretend to lose.One year, a pup was a bit sickly. The other pups seemed to be afraid of him and wouldn’t play with him. Once, after delivering food for the small pups, 21 stood looking around for something. Soon he started wagging his tail. He’d been looking for the sickly little pup, and he went over just to hang out with him for a while.Of all McIntyre’s stories about the super wolf, that’s his favorite. Strength impresses us. But kindness is what we remember best.56. What do people usually think of“alpha males”?A. They are the group of wolves that resemble humans most.B. They are dominant not only at home but also away from home.C. They are fond of fighting against pressure from opponents.D. They are a necessary part of humans’social structures.57. McIntyre is quoted in paragraph 5 in order to ______.A. show alpha male wolves’ characteristic helps their packs surviveB. prove cooperative wolves are more likely to be alpha male wolvesC. stress that being willing to share is what wolves have in commonD. illustrate than an alpha male wolf is born to be touch and aggressive58. After a wolf pack gets a prey（猎物），what will an alpha male wolf most likely do?A. Compete with other pack membersB. Keep it in a place unknown to his packC. Wait until his pack has eaten and is fullD. Make sure that no pack member eats it alone59. It is 21’s _____ that will leave McIntyre and the w riter a lasting impression.A. attackB. defenseC. strengthD. kindness（B）Dear Thomas and Luke,Thanks for your question. First of all, I should mention that not all birds have their eyes on the sides of their heads. Pigeons, parrots and sparrows do, but other birds, such as owls and hawks, have large eyes placed close together at the front of their heads.Whether they have eyes at the front or on the sides of their heads, all birds can still see straight ahead. But that doesn’t mean all birds see things in the same way. In fact, where a bird’s eyes are on its head can tell us a lot about how it sees the world.Where a bird’s eyes are on its head affects its field of vision—that’s how much it can see in front and to the side at any one time. Think about how far you can see to either side without turning your head: these are the limits of your own field of vision.Because owls have eyes at the front of their heads, they have a smaller field of vision—around 150 degrees for a barn owl.Parrots, pigeons and other birds with eyes on the sides of their heads have a much bigger field of vision, of about 300 degrees. Amazingly, this means that they can see in front and a long way to the side, at the same time.Where the eyes are placed decides how a bird views its surroundings using different types of vision. Binocular vision means both eyes focus on the same object at the same time, and eye movement is coordinated—this is the kind of vision that predatory birds such as owls rely on most. Monocular vision means each eye is focused on a different object at any particular moment, and this is normal for parrots and pigeons. Having different kinds of vision helps different kinds of birds survive in the wild.For parrots and pigeons, having eyes on the sides of their heads is a huge advantage. Having a wider field of vision with only a small blind spot behind them lets these birds see where they are going, while also keeping an eye out for predators which might be trying to attack them.For predatory raptors such as barn owls, having forward-facing eyes helps them to see depth and distance much more clearly, since both eyes can focus on the same object at the same time. This is perfect for spotting and catching small prey such as field mice.So though it might s eem like birds with eyes on the side of their heads can’t see where they are going, they can see forward and sideways at the same time, and in fact can see much more than those with eyes facing forwards.60. Which of the following is most likely to be Tho mas and Luke’s question?A. Which kind of birds can see farthest than others?B. Do birds see with their eyes, like we do, or with something else.C. Bird’s eyes are on the side so how do they see where they’re going?D. Birds have eyes that vary in size so why can they see to either side?61. The picture on the right shows _____ field of vision.A. parrots’B. pigeons’C. sparrows’D. owls’62. Which of the following statements is true of the birds that have eyes on the sides?A. They can focus on two things at the same time.B. They have a relatively bigger blind spot behind.C. They can see either see forward or sideways at a time.D. They are better at locating and catching small animals.（C）Monstrous oceanic waves are able to transport boulders（巨石）weighing hundreds of tonnes. The finding helps explain how huge rocks end up atop high cliffs and also implies that storm waves can be more powerful and dangerous than previously thought.Until recently, the heaviest rock known to have been transported by waves was about 200 tonnes. Now Ronadh Cox of Williams College in Massachusetts and her colleagues have found a new record holder: a 620-tonne boulder, equivalent to roughly three Statues of Liberty.Cos found the boulder on the west coast of Ireland. The region was struck by some huge storms during the winter of 2013-2014. When she and her team examined photographs taken before and after the storms, they found the massive boulder had been moved about 2.5 metres.Many researchers didn’t think such heav y boulders could be moved by storm waves, says Cox.“Calculations and force-balancing equations suggested that storm waves did not have sufficient power, so there were people who argued strongly that only tsunamis were capable of moving such huge blocks,”sh e says.However, advances in buoy technology（浮标技术）are making possible more detailed measurements of storm waves, and we now know they can produce huge forces.“It’s fun to show that these giant boulders were moved around during storms, and to imagine the wild energy of the waves,”Cox says.Perhaps the most important part of the new work is its application to assessing dangers caused by waves to coastal areas. The team tracked not only the biggest boulders, but also the distribution of more than a thousand sm aller boulders at many sites along Ireland’s western coast. Cox says the pattern of boulder movements is a guide to the kinds of wave forces that Ireland’s coast, and other like it, might face during future storms.In December, Ireland’s Environmental Prot ection Agency published a report suggesting that storms may become more intense because of climate change; therefore, knowing just how powerful waves can be may prove vital for protecting coastlines where people are living.“A wave that can move a 600-tonn e rock can also move anything else that’s 600 tonnes,”says Cox.“And if storminess increases, as it may well with climate change, then that kind of wave power, currently occurring on remote, exposed coastlines, might be coming to coastlines that do not curr ently experience it.”Cox says it is unlikely the 620-tonne boulder is the biggest object that ocean waves can move. There are boulders in the study area that are even heavier and they bear signs of wave transport. However, they didn’t move during the storms in question, so we don’t yet have definitive evidence that waves can move them.63. What did Cox and her colleagues find?A. High cliffs were mysteriously under water for some time.B. The west coast of Ireland has suffered from more frequent storms.C. A boulder of 200 tonnes was transported by waves to a distant spot.D. A boulder thought too heavy to move traveled a certain distance.64. According to Cox, which of the following is also worth looking at?A. Where boulders arriveB. Where people want to liveC. How high the temperature will beD. How coastlines can defend storms65. It can be inferred from the passage that Cox’s research and finding is especially meaningful now because _____.A. climate change leads to stronger stormsB. buoy technology needs more applicationsC. heavier tocks are potential dangers to touristsD. more people are choosing to live in coastal areas66. Which of the following might be the best title of the passage?A. Why are boulders traveling in a new direction?B. The biggest ever boulder moving aroundC. Let the boulders fall where they may beD. Boulders: a sign of climate changeSection CDirections：Complete the following passage by using the sentences given below. Each sentencesHow and when should I exercise?The benefits of exercise have been duly noted and your resolutions have been made. Yes, you want to be fit and live a long and healthy life. ___67___According to standard advice issued by the World Health Organization, adults should be getting at least 150 minutes of moderate physical activity or 75 minutes of vigorous activity per week to extend their lives, get fit, have stronger muscles and be a healthy weight. If that didn’t already sound a lot, the WHO ways to double that if you want to get further benefits.The good news for those who dislike sports is that it’s possible to stick to these guidelines without entering a gym or breaking into a jog. ___68___This idea fits with evidence from a study last year of more than 130,000 people in 17 countries, which found that walking to work and housework such as vacuuming or mopping the floor are activities enough to reduce the risk of early death by 28 per cent, as long as you do 150 minutes a week. If you aren’t one for housework, you will be pleased to hear that your weekly amount of exercise can be put into the weekend with no ill effects, says Gray O’Donovan of Loughborough University, UK. ___69___ But his team analysed data from more than 63,000 adults in the UK covering 18 yea rs and found that people who favoured a“weekend fighter”plan had pretty much the same reduced risk of early death from all causes as those who spread out exercise.“One weekly exercise is usually sufficient to reduce mortality and morbidity（死亡率和发病率），”O’ Donovan says. Even weekend fighters who did less than the recommended amount for the week fared better than inactive people.___70___“No level of exercise is too much,”says O’Donovan.“There’s no increase in mortality or morbidity if you keep increasing the amount.”Just don’t go too hard each time.Ⅳ. Summary WritingDirections：Read the following passage. Summarize in no more than 60 words the main idea of the passage and how it is illustrated. Use your own words as far as possible.The end of books? Perhaps notA major online bookseller recently announced that sales of ebooks are now worth more than sales of traditional paperback and hardback combined. So does this mean the end of the traditional paper novel as we know it?I love the availability of ebooks, the fact that within one device, I can be recommended a book that I’ll most likely enjoy, order it and start reading it, all in a matter of minutes. I no longer have to spend hours walking along endless shelves in a book shop, trying to decide whether I’l l actually enjoy the book I’ve chosen. It’s easier to travel light nowadays, too, as I just carry hundreds of books round with me in one simple device.But does this really mean the book is dead? I don’t think so. After all, the same thing was said about the rise of television, and radio before that. In fact, as far back as 1835, Theophile Gautier, in his novel Mademoiselle de Maupin, declared,“The newspaper is killing the books, as the book killed architecture.”You see, the traditional book is a tough character. There’s something almost romantic about it, whether it’s the smell of its pages, or the way it’s like a trusty friend that fits reassuringly under your arm on the train or bus, which tells the world a little about you by its cover. It can be an old friend that we return to when we’re feeling down, and our bookshelves stand as a kind of history of our lives, with each faded cover holding memories and pleasures unique to each of us.What the online bookseller didn’t mention when reporting their sales f igures is that sales of paperback and hardback books are also rising, and that this particular bookseller, while huge, has only 19% of the overall market for novels. Of course, the ebook is going to have its place in the future, but it will simply become another form of media we comet to enjoy.Ⅴ. TranslationDirections：Translate the following sentences into English, using the words given in the brackets.72. 电池使用前必须充电。

He began his climb to achieve his dream after years of preparation. But he went up alone. He started climbing and it was becoming later and later. He did not prepare for camping, so he had to keep on climbing.Soon night fell and Johnson could not see anything. Everything was black. There was no moon, and the stars were covered by clouds. As he was climbing only about 10 feet away from the top, he slipped and fell. He could only see darkness passing at a great speed. He kept falling… He thought certainly he would die.But then Johnson felt the long rope tied to his waist (腰部) pull very hard. His body was hanging in the air. He had no other choice but to shout, “Help! Help me!”Suddenly he heard a deep voice, “What do you want me to do?”“Save me!”“Do you really think that I can save you?”“Of course.”“Then cut the rope.” However, Johnson just held tighter (更紧地) to the rope.The next day Johnson was found hanging strongly to a rope…TWO FEET OFF THE GROUNDHow much do you believe in some “rope”?

Never Give Up!D．Dare You Let “Rope” Go?Birds usually build their nests with sticks, leaves or grass. But do you know that birds are also building their nests with rubbish these years? The rubbish includes cigarette butts（烟头）and plastic bags.A group of European scientists looked into（调查）about 35,000 studies on bird nests. They found that birds have used man-made things in nests almost everywhere on Earth except Antarctica. Some rubbish seems to be helpful. This is why birds “like” putting it in their nests. For example, cigarette butts have a special smell, so they can keep insects away and protect the baby birds. Plastic bags are useful in keeping the animals warm, and other hard things, such as paper cards, can make nests stronger.However, in the end, human rubbish may only bring more harm to birds. The toxic（有毒的）chemicals in cigarettes hurt the baby birds. They may get sick or have shorter lives, according to a study.To make matters worse, if the cigarette still burns when the bird brings it back to its home, it may set fire to the nest. Pieces of fishing net may also trap birds, and it’s impossible for them to get out by themselves. If the baby birds eat other kinds of rubbish by accident, they will also get hurt. Our bird friends in the air are feeling the bad effects of humans polluting the environment. 9．What did the European scientists find?A．Some people help birds build their nests.B．There is rubbish in the nests of many birds.C．There is almost no bird living in Antarctica.D．Birds can help clean the environment.10．Which of the following things is NOT used by the birds to build their nests according to the passage?A．Paper cards.B．Cigarette butts.C．Plastic bags.D．Wooden boards.11．How can cigarette butts “help” birds?A．They can burn other harmful rubbish.B．They can make nests stronger.C．They can keep insects away.D．They can keep birds warm.12．What is Paragraph 3 mainly about?A．Human rubbish may bring more harm to birds.B．The harm that the environment brings to the wild animals.C．The reason why birds like using rubbish to build their nests.D．The harmful activities that humans have done to the environment.二、其他How to Improve Your English HandwritingNow students’ English handwriting gets worse and worse. That makes their teachers feel worried. Is your English handwriting beautiful? If not, here are four steps that really work!13 Using paper that has lines can keep you writing straight when you write English words or sentences. Those lines on the paper can help you to write words in the right size.Slow down. If your writing is hard to read, slow down a little. For some kids, going slower makes the handwriting clear. If you write too fast, it’s hard for you to stop where you should, and even worse, you may make more mistakes.14 When you hold your pencil in the correct way, writing is much easier. Some kids press down really hard when they write. That makes the handwriting not nice. Relax yourself,and don’t hold the pencil so hard.15 Drawing can improve your handwriting. You need to use the skills to control your pencil better when you are drawing pictures.Handwriting is very important. Imagine you are a world-famous movie star or a well-known sports player, what do you do when your fans run up to you?A．Hold your pencil right.B．Use paper with lines.C．Draw more pictures.D．Never give up.三、完形填空Rich or poor, young or old, we all have problems. We can easily become unhappy unless we 16 our problems. 17 our problems can affect how we do things at school or at home. So how do we deal with our problems?Most of us have probably been 18 with our friends, parents or teachers. Perhaps they said something you didn’t like, or you felt they were unfair. Sometimes, people can stay angry for years about a small problem. Time goes by, and good friendships may be lost.When we are angry, however, we are usually the ones affected. Have you ever seen young children playing together? But they 19 very soon, and decide not to talk to each other. However, this usually doesn’t 20 for long. They become good friends again. This is an important 21 for us: we can solve a problem by learning to forget.Many 22 often complain about school. They might feel they have too much work to do sometimes, or think the rules are too 23 . We must learn how to change these “problems” into “challenges”. As young adults, it is our duty to try our best to deal with the challenges with the help of our teachers.By comparing yourself with other people, you will find your problems are not so terrible. Think about Stephen Hawking, for example, a very clever scientist. He couldn’t walk 24 even speak, but he regarded his many physical problems as unimportant. And he is known as a great scientist in the world. We are probably quite healthy and smart. Let’s not worry about ourproblems. Instead, let’s face the challenges 25 . Only in this way can we live happily. 16．A．solve B．answer C．imagine D．decide 17．A．Depending on B．Trying out C．Looking for D．Worrying about 18．A．pleased B．interested C．friendly D．angry 19．A．fight B．laugh C．hug D．frighten 20．A．last B．make C．hope D．use21．A．way B．test C．class D．lesson 22．A．teachers B．students C．workers D．adults 23．A．difficult B．important C．strict D．kind24．A．and B．or C．for D．but 25．A．bravely B．angrily C．sadly D．quietly四、语法填空阅读下面材料，在空白处填入适当的内容(1个单词)或括号内单词的正确形式，并将答案转写到答题卡上。

The technology could__33__the work of experienced moviemakers.It could also become a quick and inexpensive way of creating online__34__,making it even harder to tell what’s real on the internet.In an interview,the team behind the technology said the company was not yet releasing Sora to the public because it was still working to understand the system’s__35__.The intention here is to give a(n)__36__of what is likely to happen soon,so that people can see the capabilities of this technology.Like other generative A.I.technologies,OpenAI’s system learns by analyzing digital data—in this case,videos and subtitles describing what those videos contain.OpenAI declined to say how many videos the system learned from or where they came from,except to say the training included both__37__available videos and videos that were licensed from copyright holders.The company says little about the data used to train its technologies,most likely because it wants to__38__an advantage over competitors.Sora generates videos in__39__to short descriptions.Though the videos can be impressive, they may include strange and__40__images.The system,for example,recently generated a video of someone eating a cookie—but the cookie never got any smaller.III.Reading ComprehensionSection ADirections:For each blank in the following passages there are four words or phrases marked A,B, C and D.Fill in each blank with the word or phrase that best fits the context.My father decided to start learning French when he was57.On the surface,his retirement hobby seems a little random—our family has no connection to French-speaking countries—but his __41__ran deeper than a passion for cakes.My grandmother developed signs of Alzheimer’s disease (阿尔兹海默症)in her early70s,and studies suggest that being bilingual,that is,being able to speak two languages equally well,can__42__the start of the condition by up to five years.Drawn by that __43__benefit,many people have attempted to pick up a new language in adulthood.Lots of activities are linked to better brain health in old age,like getting more education when you’re younger and physical activity.Experts say regularly speaking multiple languages may be especially__44__though.“We use language in all aspects of daily life,so a bilingual brain is __45__working,”said Mark Antoniou,a professor at Western Sydney University who specializes in bilingualism.The age at which you learn another language appears to be less important than how__46__youspeak it.The cognitive(认知的)benefit is from having to__47__your mother tongue,which your brain is forced to do if you’re trying to recall the right words in another language.So if the second language is used a lot,you’re getting that cognitive__48__.That process is called cognitive inhibition.In theory,by improving these types of processes,the brain becomes stronger to the __49__caused by diseases like dementia.The stronger your mental power,the thinking goes,the longer you can function normally,even if your brain health starts to__50__.However,evidence for the benefits of learning a second language as a hobby in your60s is __51__.Research by Dr.Antoniou and colleagues found that while Chinese adults60and up improved on cognition tests after a six-month language learning program,people who played games like Sudoku did as well.Two more recent studies on the topic found virtually no__52__in cognitive performance after people took part in language-learning programs.The scientists who conducted those studies offered a few potential__53__.One is that the participants were highly motivated volunteers,who may have already been at peak performance for their age,making it hard to see any__54__.Another is that the language interventions were perhaps too short.The handful of studies looking into the issue have used language lessons that were very different in their__55__and frequency.Some studies taught participants for eight months,others for just one very intense week.41.

A.content B.intention C.length D.requirement Section 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 read.(A)My son,Ben,died when he was23.The year after his death,I hiked48of the state’s tallest mountains in his memory.Every step,path and peak has been a way to restore.About a month after his death,my husband and I hiked Carter Dome and Mount Hight,sorrow weighing heavy in our hearts and legs.Standing on the peak,I looked out across the mountains my son loved.For a moment,the heavy blow brought about by Ben’s death faded into the timeless expanse,and I could breathe.The next weekend found us on Mount Moosilauke.Then Mount Cannon,Mount Flume,Mount Liberty and so on.It was a series of firsts,of struggles and overcoming them—climbing at night, climbing slides and rocks,camping alone,finding paths and planning routes.Six days before the anniversary of Ben’s death,I hiked my48th and final peak:Mount Carrigain. As I stood on the observation platform at the peak,I found the essential truth I had been grasping to express for months:The only place that feels vast enough to hold sorrow this deep and wide is the top of a mountain,looking out into forever.These days,I hike not to hide,but to seek.I find Ben,but I also find myself:someone broken, now braver and more capable.The forced isolation of sorrow becomes the welcome loneliness of the path;the peace of nature replaces the pain of loss.Hiking is both exhausting and exciting,and it teaches us that sorrow and joy can coexist.But there’s another,possibly more important truth:A hike is not the only way to find the peace of the natural world;a simple walk along a park path can have a similar effect.The internal journey of sorrow mixes with our steps,and we find comfort along the way.56.How did the writer feel after climbing Carter Dome and Mount Hight?A.Doubtful.B.Relieved.C.Sad.D.Terrified.57.After hiking the48peaks,the writer learned that__________.A.it was possible to live with both sorrow and joyB.it was the isolation of sorrow that exhausted herC.only by overcoming struggles could one surviveD.the peaks were proper places to remember someone58.What does the writer imply in the last paragraph?A.Walking works best for those in sorrow.B.We can plan our internal journey as intended.C.What counts is to make peace with ourselves.D.People tend to hike in parks to seek comfort.59.Which of the following is the best title for the passage?A.The Heavy Steps That Led Me To PeaksB.The Mountains That Held My SorrowC.The Journeys That Frustrated MeD.The First Struggles That Empowered Me(B)FAQs on preparing your ApplicationQ:Should I target my Application to a specific Job Opening(JO)?A:Yes.Naturally,a customized cover note will also help you focus on the key aspects of your Application that relate to the JO,but it is also in your interest to target the Application according to the responsibilities and competencies of the position.Q:What’s the difference between duties and achievements?A:Duties describe the specific responsibilities of your job.They accurately reflect what you are doing or have done in each of your previous jobs.In other words,it is the“what you do”of your job. Achievements describe in specific terms“how well”you did in your job.Q:Many of my achievements are team-based,how do I draft them in my Application?A:You should include your team-based achievements in your Application.Indicate that you were part of a team,and describe your specific role in reaching the goal.FAQs on general Application guidelinesQ:Can I save my Application?A:Yes.You should save your Application when you make changes and/or update it.It is recommended that you save different versions of your Application in Word format and then edit the Application online according to the post for which you are applying.Q:Can I update my Application to apply for a new JO?A:Yes.Each time you apply for a new JO,we recommend that you review your Application and update it,if appropriate,or target it to better reflect your suitability for the new JO.Your updates will not affect the content of Applications previously submitted against other JOs.Q:Must I use up all the available characters in each section of my Application?A:No.In fact,doing so may result in an unnecessary lengthy Application.Unless you have an enormous range of experiences,there is no reason to use up all the space given.Applicants are encouraged to list their duties and achievements in a clear and brief manner.60.Which of the following descriptions best shows your achievements?A.I’ve developed various interests,ranging from oil painting to designing model.B.I’m good at creating proposals for new product ideas aimed at a specific market.C.I’m in charge of the clearance,production and distribution of information material.D.I succeeded in directing a video presentation,assisting our group to win the first prize.61.If you want to apply for another JO,you’d better__________.A.target your focus on your interest in the JOB.save your latest application in Word formatC.prepare one application with all your competenciesD.update your application to match new requirements62.Applicants are expected to__________in their applications.A.introduce what JOs they have previously applied toB.list the greatest achievements they have made in detailC.give key information about their experiences and achievementsD.provide the results of their tests,assessments and examinations(C)In th e pa s t,jo b s were ab o u t mu s c l es.No w th ey’re ab o u t br a i n s,bu t in th e future,th ey’ll be about th e heart.–Minouche Sh afik,the presid ent of Co lu mb ia U n i v e r s i t y LinkedIn researchers recently looked at which skills any given job requires and then identified over500likely to be affected by generative A.I.technologies.They then estimated that96percent of a software engineer’s current skills—mainly in programming languages—can eventually be possessed by A.I.Skills associated with jobs like legal associates and finance officers will also be highly exposed.In fact,given the broad impact A.I.is set to have,it is quite likely to affect all of our work to some degree or another.Circling around this research is the big question emerging across so many conversations about A.I.and work,namely:What are our core capabilities as humans?If we answer this question from a place of fear about what’s left for people in the age of A.I., we can end up admitting a diminished view of human capability.Instead,it’s critical for us all to start from a place that imagines what’s possible for humans in the age of A.I.When we do that,we find ourselves focusing quickly on people skills that allow us to cooperate and innovate in waystechnology can intensify but never replace.A recent Jobs for the Future survey found that78percent of the10top-employing occupations classified uniquely human skills and tasks as“important”or“very important.”These,commonly referred to as soft skills,include building interpersonal relationships,negotiating between parties and guiding and motivating teams.Now is the time for leaders,across departments,to develop new ways for students to learn that are more directly tied to where our economy is going,not where it has been.Critically,that involves bringing the same level of preciseness to training around people skills that we have brought to technical skills.Ultimately,for our society,this comes down to whether we believe in the potential of humans with as much belief as we believe in the potential of A.I.If we do,it is entirely possible to build a world of work that not only is more human but also is a place where all people are valued for the unique skills we have,enabling us to deliver new levels of human achievement across so many areas that affect all of our lives.63.According to LinkedIn’s recent research,__________.A.soft engineers are required to identify500languagesB.A.I.will replace humans in jobs requiring certain skillsC.we humans underestimate the impact A.I.is set to haveD.A.I.technologies are to influence research to some degree64.Which of the following is“a diminished view of human capability”(paragraph3)?A.Humans are losing control of the world.B.Technology intensifies humans’cooperation.C.Humans outsmart A.I in terms of critical thinking.D.A.I.and humans are similar in their ability to innovate.65.Leaders in different departments are advised to__________.A.teach students unique technical skillsB.develop students’soft skills for their futureC.remind students where our economy is goingD.build healthy interpersonal relationships with students66.According to the writer,what is the core factor of human development?A.Practical value set on skills.B.Firm belief about A.I.technologies.C.Decisive effects brought by A.I.D.Confidence in our potential.Section CDirections:Read the following passage.Fill in each blank with a proper sentence given in the box. Each sentence can be used only once.Note that there are two more sentences than you need.A.The number of visitors hit100,000for the first time this tourist season,a40%jump over theprevious record.B.The Antarctic is at risk not just because of the breakability of its environment,but due to the lackof a single governing body.C.Should landings be made at a larger number of sites for instance,or should we aim to keep thehuman footprint as small as possible?D.If what you really want is to connect with snow and ice and you’re in the northern half,can youcatch a train to the nearest snow region instead?E.The average per-person carbon emissions for an Antarctic tourist are3.76tonnes–about thetotal sum that an individual typically generates in an entire year.F.There is so little regulation now that almost anything that will protect the areas by an officiallegal source rather than self-regulated would be really positive.Antarctic Tourism:Should We Just Say No?More people are visiting Antarctic,the frozen continent than ever before.__67__This has brought a new urgency to the question of how much,if any,tourism should be allowed on the icy continent.The distance most visitors travel to reach Antarctica makes carbon emissions a serious problem. __68__One study calculated that each tourist between2016and2020was effectively melting around83tonnes of snow,due largely to emissions from vacation ships.__69__The Antarctic Treaty,established in1961to provide governance for the continent, operates on a consultative basis,which means all56parties have to agree before a change can be put into action.The last major decision on tourism was a measure passed in2009that prohibits vacation ships carrying more than500passengers from making landings.That regulation has still not officially been carried out as not every signatory country has accepted it domestically.There is clear agreement that something needs to change,but no agreement on what those changes should be.__70__IV.Summary WritingDirections:Read the following passage.Summarize the main idea and the main point(s)of the passage in no more e your own words as far as possible.It Takes at Least200Hours to Make a Close Friendship,and More to Maintain It Many of us worry that we don’t put in enough time to maintain close friendships.But how much is enough?Unfortunately,there’s no magic formula(公式)for how much time you need to spend on your friends to keep them.Each friendship and friend are unique and develops or ends depending on how we interact.Forming a friendship in the first place takes a certain number of hours of being together.We need between40and60hours together for a person we know slightly to become a casual friend.In order to move from casual friends to close friends,we need to spend an additional140to160hours together for a total of about200hours.However,deeper interactions can quicken that timeline.We can form a close bond in less than 200hours with meaningful conversations.Contrarily,spending200hours together doesn’t necessarily mean a person will become a close friend.They have to want to be your friends.Some co-workers can spend300hours together and never become close friends.When it comes to maintaining friendships,it’s not just the number of hours spent together,but what we do that matters.Engaging in passive activity with friends—like watching a TV series—isfun and enjoyable,but it doesn’t do as much to maintain friendship as having deep conversations, sharing feelings,and being a good listener.And routinely checking in with people we choose to connect with,through calls and texts or in person,helps maintain relationships and leads to higher scores of positive feelings,like happiness.The key point is that sharing things about ourselves can lead to close friendships.Once that closeness is established,some ways to maintain closeness are supporting friends when things go wrong for them and celebrating their achievements.第II卷（共40分）V.TranslationDirections:Translate the following sentences into English,using the words given in the brackets.72.点击此处可获取更多信息。
