第三部分:阅读理解(共两节,40分) 第一节 (共15小题;每小题2分,共30分) 阅读下列短文,从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中,选出最佳选项,并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。 A She was walking home from work one evening
when she got the idea. Rosa didn’t like her job at the factory, but it was
better than no job at all. So, while she was trying not to think about work,
she saw the pots in an alley. They were cheap plastic pots, but there were
dozens of them piled up behind the flower shop. Such a waste, she thought. When
the pots were still there three days later, Rosa went in and asked if she could
take some. The flower shop lady said she didn’t mind, so Rosa carried home a
tower of pots, pretending she was a circus performer on the way. At home, Rosa set them on the fire escape
outside her tiny apartment. And there they sat. Once a gust of wind sent them
slipping to the street three floors below, and she had to go to run after and
catch them before the gathering storm. Every day, Rosa went to work and thought
about her pots. She was waiting for something, but she had patience. At last, the newspaper brought good news. A
hardware store had a sale on potting soil. Rosa carefully counted her money,
then walked six blocks to the store. She bought six bags and carried them home.
She bought seeds, too. Rosa slept well that night and dreamed of masses of
flowers and fat, glowing fruits. Sundays were always good days. Rosa didn’t
have to work on Sundays. But Rosa couldn’t remember when she had had such a
good Sunday. She got up early and ate her breakfast on the fire escape with her
pots. Then, she began to put dirt into the pots. She sang a little song until
all six of her bags of soil were empty. Then, she laid her precious seed
packets out and planned her garden. Tomatoes for the biggest pots, and peppers
for the next-biggest ones. Flowers in all the rest. At the end of the day, Rosa sat in
her garden and watched the sunset. Soon, she thought, there will be masses of
flowers and fat, glowing fruits.
36.
Why did Rosa wait 3 days before she asked about the pots?
A. She didn’t like the pots at first.
B. She had been waiting for a discount.
C. She had no idea how to make use of them. D. She needed to make sure they
were unwanted. 37.
What can we learn about Rosa? A. She was a workaholic. B. She liked taking walks. C. She was poor. D. She liked the
sunset. 38.
How did Rosa feel when planting her garden? A. Hopeful. B. Proud. C. Anxious. D. Lonely.
B Prinker: Color Your Way Tattoos always look so cool, but
actually getting one is quite a commitment. After all, apart from using
expensive laser removal therapy, they stay on your skin forever. The Prinker is here to change the
game. It is a device(设备) that lets you create or print
any image or temporary tattoos within a matter of seconds. It is connected to
your smartphone and you can select a bunch of preloaded tattoos available in
the app. This device was exhibited at The
International Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas this year. It is
manufactured by a Korean startup company called “SketchOn”. You can sketch your ideas out on
your skin with this portable device that is almost twice the size of a computer
mouse. This is a nice way to support your team in the match by printing its
logo or design onto your skin. You can also share your tattoo designs with
others through the app. It is also a fun and creative toy for kids to play
with. In order to print the design, all
you need to do is select or draw a design on your mobile and then press and rub
the base of the device against your skin and you are done. These designs and
images are water resistant but can be washed off with soap water. The ink of
the Prinker is non-toxic and is made only from certified cosmetic ingredients.
Each cartridge (墨盒) contains enough ink for about
1,500 tattoos, or as J. R. Smith would call it, “a good start.” The Prinker is developed by a
small team of five members. The company is planning to launch the device in
China and then in the United States. The device is currently commercializing in
Korea as a rental device. The agencies and organizations pay $150 for a day to
use it in their events or marketing. The current version of Prinker is
aimed towards business users (think festivals, carnivals, sports events, promotion
campaigns). But the company is working on a home version, and hopes to have it
available to buy before the end of 2018. SketchOn estimates the personal model
will retail at $200. The company is currently seeking to partner with
international agencies for distribution opportunities. Although Prinker is currently
aimed towards novelty and creative purposes, its technologies could eventually
be adapted for use by professional tattoo artists or medical professionals who
provide tattoos for patients, such as after a breast cancer operation or skin
graft.
59. According to the passage,
tattoos by Prinker . A. can stay permanently B. are
convenient to print C. can draw more attention D. are expensive to remove 60. What can we learn from the passage? A. Prinker can be used to create any image in a short time B. Prinker is
preloaded with many tattoo designs inside C. Prinker is available for kids in their daily activities. D. Prinker has been adapted for professional use. 61. Where can we probably use
Prinker at present? A. At a company annual meeting. B. At a surgical ward in
the hospital. C. At a family
gathering at home. D. At a professional tattoo shop.. 62. The passage is intended to . A. persuade people to buy Prinker B. promote various methods of getting tattoos C. introduce a new tattoo printing device to
readers D. search for business partners for further
expansion
C A large body of research has been developed in recent years to explain many aspects of willpower. Most of the researchers exploring self-control do so with an obvious goal in mind: How can willpower be strengthened? If willpower is truly a limited resource, as the research suggests, what can be done to make it stay strong? Avoiding temptation(诱惑) is an effective method for maintaining self-control, which is called the “out of sight, out of mind” principle. One recent study, for instance, found office workers are less attracted to candy in the desk drawer than that on top of their desks, in plain sight. The research suggesting that we possess a limited reservoir of self-control raises a troubling question. When we face too many temptations, are we to fail? Not necessarily. Researchers don’t believe that one’s willpower is ever completely exhausted. Rather, people appear to hold some willpower in reserve, saved for future demands. The right motivation allows us to tap into those reserves, allowing us to carry on even when our self-control strength has been run down. High motivation might help overcome weakened willpower—at least to a point. Willpower may also be made less vulnerable(脆弱) to being exhausted in the first place. Researchers who study self-control often describe it as being like a muscle that gets tired with heavy use. But there is another aspect to the muscle comparison, they say. While muscles become exhausted by exercise in the short term, they are strengthened by regular exercise in the long term. Similarly, regular practices of self-control may improve willpower strength. The evidence from willpower-exhaustion studies also suggests that making a list of resolutions on New Year’s Eve is the worst possible approach. Being exhausted in one area can reduce willpower in other areas, so it makes more sense to focus on a single goal at a time. In other words, don’t try to quit smoking, adopt a healthy diet and start a new exercise plan at the same time. Taking goals one by one is a better approach. Once a good habit is in place, Baumeister says, you’ll no longer need to draw on your willpower to maintain the behavior. Eventually healthy habits will become routine, and won’t require making decisions at all. Many questions about the nature of self-control remain to be answered by further research. Yet it seems likely that with clear goals, good self-monitoring and a little practice, you can train your willpower to stay strong in the face of temptation.
63. From the studies in the passage we learn that ______. A. people have unlimited self-control B. high motivation ensures one’s success C. willpower is hardly completely exhausted D. too many temptations often lead to failure 64. The underlined phrase “tap into” in Paragraph 3 most probably means ______. A. make use of B. run out of C. build D. increase 65. The author compares self-control to muscles ______. A. to prove the long-term effects of willpower B. to show the significance of regular exercise C. to argue that self-control can be easily used up D. to explain the benefits of practicing self-control 66. To develop a good habit, which of the following does the author prefer? A. “I will give up dessert and do exercise.” B. “I will set three goals this new semester.” C. “I will keep myself from any temptation.” D. “I will read an English novel every month.”
D The
aggressive spread of market economics and communication technologies—often
under the control of Western multinational companies—brings new challenges to
local cultures and values in non-Western societies. Sometimes it seems as if a
tidal wave of the worst Western culture is creeping across the globe like a
giant strawberry milkshake spill out and over the planet, with a flavor that is
distinctly sweet, sickly and apparently homogeneous(同质的). For some,
especially the young, change may mean escape from oppressive traditions. It may
also bring new opportunities for cultures to be combined in creative ways.
However, there is genuine cause for concern about the rate at which cultures
are being worn away in such a globalized world. Perhaps by
far the most important far-reaching effect of cultural globalization is the
commercialization of culture, which has a disturbing impact on local people’s
existing values. They are increasingly bombarded with new images, new music,
new clothes and new values. The familiar and old are to be abandoned. While
there was cultural change long before globalization, there is a danger that
much will be lost simply because it is not valued by global markets. In West Africa
for example, traditional values have been overtaken by Coca-Cola culture which
the local people don't yet have the values to deal with successfully. Another
common aspect of the globalized culture is that it pursues(追求) the same
"one size fits all" American ideal. The result of this cultural
process of homogenization is that a large section of the world's population
dreams of living like Cosby & Co. or like the characters in any other
stereotype American soap opera. In addition, the dream of living a better life
causes thousands of people to move to already overcrowded cities whose
population has boomed by millions within the last decades. The majority of
these new immigrants end up in slums leading to poverty, pollution and misery. Such gradual
aggression against people's existing values and cultures has a destructive
impact on their sense of who they are, what they want and what they respect. It
attacks spiritual values and faith traditions. The accumulative(累积的) effect in
non-Western societies is a crisis of cultural confidence, combined with the
increased economic uncertainty and crime which global integration(一体化) may bring.
This creates real problems for social stability, whether it is at the level of
nation, community or family. In
conclusion, cultural globalization, or worldwide McDonaldization, destroys
diversity and displaces the opportunity to sustain decent life through a
mixture of many different cultures. It is more a consequence of power
concentration in the global media and manufacturing companies than the people's
own wish to abandon their cultural identity and diversity.
67. It can be learned from Paragraph 1 that _________. A. non-Western societies willingly accept economic
globalization B. Western culture unites the world's economies and
technologies C. the booming of Western culture destroys non-Western
societies D. despite its appeal, westernization shows an unpleasant
uniformity 68. Which best serves as an example of the “one size fits
all” principle in non-Western nations? A. McDonald receives more criticism abroad than at home. B. Many Africans dream of a middle class American
lifestyle. C. Chinese food wins great approval in the United
Kingdom. D. Some western young people fancy a visit to African
countries. 69. What is the writer’s attitude towards cultural
globalization? A. Cautious. B.
Critical. C. Positive. D. Neutral. 70. The passage is mainly about ______. A. cultural diversity in globalization B. challenges to non-Western cultures C. drawbacks of cultural globalization D.
disappearance of non-Western cultures
第二节(共5小题;每小题2分,共10分) 根据短文内容,从短文后的七个选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项 为多余选项。 If you were like most kids, your mother told you there were three no-no’s when it came to your fingers: Don’t put them in an electrical outlet, don’t stick them up your nose (at least not in public), and don’t use them when you are counting. 71 But experts in education and cognition now believe that using your fingers to do math is not only a perfectly good idea but may even help children become superior students. It certainly makes sense. When children count on their fingers, they take an abstract concept— mathematics—and translate it into the most basic and visual form. 72 Even when we aren’t actually counting on them, they still can help us on math problem. 73 It activates when we respond to heat,
pressure, pain, or the use of a given finger. Studying brain scans, researchers
discovered that when students aged 8 to 13 work on subtraction(减法)
equations, this region “lights up” on the scans, even if the students aren’t
using their fingers. The more complex the problem, the more activities are
detected. The connection between finger use and math ability has been proved on old-fashioned math tests as well. With their eyes closed, first graders were asked to identify which of their fingers a researcher was touching. 74 When college students were given the same quiz, the highest scores once again performed best on calculation tests. So what does all this mean? For one thing, parents and teachers
shouldn’t discourage children from counting on their fingers. 75 Memorizing the multiplication tables may help,
but it is not the best option. “I would like to see interesting and creative
representations of ideas.” says Jo Boaler, a professor of math education. Recently, a series of activities have been designed to strengthen students’ perception of their fingers. Maybe in the near future, there will be only two no-no’s regarding the use of fingers.
A. The first two laws of fingers
are as true as ever. B. There is a section of the
brain, called the somatosensory finger area. C. Researchers also stress that
students simply learn better using visual tools. D. Researchers are unimpressed by
those students who finish quickly as well. E. In fact, experts believe the
brain is able to “see” a representation of our fingers. F. That may sound simplistic, but
the researchers offer an interesting explanation. G. Researchers found those
scoring highest on the finger-ID questions scored higher on a math test.

One Possible Version Today, I had the pleasure of attending
the Homecoming Day of my former school, Hongxing Primary School. Early in the morning, following
some other former schoolchildren of different ages, I arrived at the school.
There stood several pupils welcoming us. We first went around the campus
and then visited the school museum to admire all the pleasant changes in
recent years. Afterwards, several representatives, including me, had a tea
party with some teachers and pupils, talking about our old days and their
school life today. Unknowingly, several hours passed. Before leaving, all the former pupils were invited to leave a message on a wall. I wrote slowly
and seriously that I was very grateful to my school for her giving me a happy
and brilliant childhood. What a great Saturday!
