B
I’d done it before, and so I had no reason to believe that this time would be any different. I was sure of that when I returned home from my mission trip. As always, I’d bring back nothing more than some mud on my boots. A hole or two in my jeans and, of course, a lot of great memories.
The summer before my high school graduation, I went to West Virginia with others as volunteers to repair the homes of those in need. Arriving at our destination, my group was assigned the task of rebuilding sections of a home that had been damaged by fire. No sooner had we parked on the home’s dirt driveway than we saw an excited little girl, no more than six years old, standing in the doorway of the family’s temporary home. Shoeless and wearing dirty clothes and the biggest smile I’d ever seen, she yelled, “Ma, Ma, they really came!” I didn’t know it then, but her name was Dakota, and four more days would pass before she’d say another word near me.
Behind Dakota was a woman in a wheelchair—her grandmother, we’d soon learn. I also discovered that my job that week would be to help change a fire-damaged dining room into a bedroom for this little girl. Over the following days, I noticed Dakota peeking at us every now and then as we worked. A few times, I tried talking with her, but she remained shy and distant, always flying around us like a tiny butterfly but keeping to herself.
By our fifth and final day, however, this was about to change. Before I went to work on her home on that last morning, I spoke for a moment or two with the grandmother. I was especially pleased when she told me how much Dakota loved her new room—so much. As we talked, I noticed something I hadn’t seen before—Dakota was hiding behind her grandmother.
Cautiously, she stepped into view, and I could see that just like her clothes, her face was still dirty. But no amount of soil could hide those bright blue eyes and big smile. She was simply adorable. Slowly, she began walking toward me. It wasn’t until she was just inches away that I noticed the folded piece of paper in her tiny hand. Silently, she reached up and handed it to me. Once unfolded, I looked at the drawing she’d made with her broken crayons on the back of an old coloring book cover. It was of two girls—one much taller than the other—and they were holding hands. She told me it was supposed to be me and her, and on the bottom of the paper were three little words that instantly broke my heart. Now almost in tears, I couldn’t control myself anymore—I bent down and hugged her. She hugged me, too. And for the longest time, neither of us could let go.
I left for home early the next morning. I was returning with muddy boots and holes in my jeans. But because of Dakota, I brought back something else, too—a greater appreciation for all or the blessings of my life. I’ll never forget that barefoot little butterfly with the big smile and dirty face. I pray that she’ll never forget me either.

C
While learning the science lessons, I used to get a doubt—why ears, nose, tongue and eyes should be called as special senses The basic reason is that these are the channels through which we maintain contact with the surroundings. Though apparently it may feel like these are individual sensory organs, they do show some connectivity. Interestingly, our hearing is less sharp after we eat a heavy food. Isn’t it good for a sound nap after a stomach-full meal That does not mean we go deaf after a meal, but the hearing pitch（强度）does change after a heavy meal.
We usually give credit of the taste to our tongue, but do you know that unless saliva（唾液）dissolves something, our tongue cannot recognize the taste of the food eaten. Taste is nothing but the food chemicals dissolved in the saliva being sensed by the taste buds present on the tongue. Try to dry off your tongue and mouth with a tissue paper and then taste something.
Women are much better smellers than men. They are born with this characteristic ability and can correctly pinpoint the exact fragrance of the sample. We all can store almost 50, 000 different scents（气味）, which are strongly tied to the memories.
Pupils（瞳孔）do not respond to light alone, but to the slightest bit of noise around too. Thus surgeons, watchmakers and those professionals who have to perform a much delicate job do prefer to have a sound-free environment. Even a small noise can dilate（扩大）their pupils, change the focus and blur（使模糊）their vision. If you do not wear glasses or contact lens due to having a 6/6 vision, you are just among the one third of the human population. It is now statistically proved that only one third of the population has perfect vision, rest all are either wearing glasses or are trying to read with a compromised vision.
Each and every one of us has a particular or individualistic or characteristic smell, which is unique to us, except for the identical twins. This smell is very subtle（微妙的）yet can be sensed even by a newborn. It may be due to this scent that the newborn recognizes the presence of his parents around. Many of us can pinpoint the smell of our significant friends and colleagues. A significant part of this phenomenon is guided by genetics but it is also changed by the environment, diet and personal hygiene. This all together creates the unique chemistry that is individualistic for each person.
61. We can learn from Paragraph 1 that .
A. sensory organs’ functions can never be changed for their particular character
B. our hearing is as good as before we have a full meal
C. we feel and learn about the world around us through our eyes, ears, nose and tongue
D. all sensory organs are connected and can be exchanged
62. What may happen after you have had a rich lunch
A. Your hearing pitch may decrease.
B. Your eyes become dim.
C. Your tongue may lose the function of taste.
D. You may feel energetic and fresh.
63. What does the author mean by the underlined sentence in Paragraph 2
A. If your tongue is dried with a tissue paper, it may work as well as before.
B. Our tongues can’t be dried while eating something.
C. A tissue paper is the only thing that can be used to dry our tongues.
D. If your tongue is dried without any saliva on it, it will not work.
64. What makes each person different from anyone else except twins
A. The number of sensory organs.
B. The particular smell of a person.
C. The style of one’s behavior.
D. The functions of sensory organs.
65. What is the text mainly about
A. A newborn’s senses of the sensory organs.
B. The functions of sensory organs.
C. The connectivity of our tongue and ears.
D. The differences of senses between women and men.
D
The AlphaGo program’s victory is an example of how smart computers have become. But can artificial intelligence（AI）machines act ethically, meaning can they be honest and fair
One example of AI is driverless cars. They are already on California roads, so it is not too soon to ask whether we can program a machine to act ethically. As driverless cars improve, they will save lives. They will make fewer mistakes than human drivers do. Sometimes, however, they will face a choice between lives. Should the cars be programmed to avoid hitting a child running across the road, even if that will put their passengers at risk What about making a sudden turn to avoid a dog What if the only risk is damage to the car itself, not to the passengers
Perhaps there will be lessons to learn from driverless cars, but they are not super-intelligent beings. Teaching ethics to a machine even more intelligent than we are will be the bigger challenge.
About the same time as AlphaGo’s triumph, Microsoft’s ‘chatbot’ took a bad turn. The software, named Taylor, was designed to answer messages from people aged 18-24. Taylor was supposed to be able to learn from the messages she received. She was designed to slowly improve her ability to handle conversations, but some people were teaching Taylor racist（种族主义的）ideas. When she started saying nice things about Hitler, Microsoft turned her off and deleted（删除）her ugliest messages.
AlphaGo’s victory and Taylor’s defeat happened at about the same time. This should be a warning to us. It is one thing to use AI within a game with clear rules and clear goals. It is something very different to use AI in the real world. The unpredictability of the real world may bring to the surface a troubling software problem.
Eric Schmidt is one of the bosses of Google, which owns AlphaGo. He thinks AI will be positive for humans. He said people will be the winner, whatever the outcome. Advances in AI will make human beings smarter, abler and “just better human beings.”
66. What does the author want to show with the example of AlphaGo’s victory
A. Computers will defeat human beings.
B. Computers can become highly intelligent.
C. Computers have unmatched potential.
D. Computers are man’s potential rivals.
67. What does the author mean by AI machines acting ethically
A. They are capable of predicting possible risks.
B. They weigh the gains and losses before reaching a decision.
C. They sacrifice everything to save human lives.
D. They make right decisions when facing moral dilemmas.
68. What is said to be the bigger challenge facing humans in the AI age
A. How to ensure that super-intelligent AI machines act ethically.
B. How to make super-intelligent AI machines share human feelings.
C. How to prevent AI machines doing harm to humans.
D. How to avoid being over-dependent on AI machines.
69. What do we learn about Microsoft’s “chatbot” Taylor
A. She could turn herself off when necessary.
B. She was not made to handle novel situations.
C. She could not distinguish good from bad.
D. She was good at performing routine tasks.
70. What does Eric Schmidt think of artificial intelligence
A. It will be far superior to human beings.
B. It will keep improving as time goes by.
C. It will be here to stay whatever the outcome.
D. It will prove to be of value to human beings.

On March 19, Malala Yousafzai, a 15-year-old Pakistani student and women’s education activist, returned to the classroom for the first time since being violently attacked by a member of the Taliban ---- a terrorist organization ---- on October 9, 2012. Malala was shot on her way home from school in Mingora, Pakistan. A Taliban group took responsibility for the attack, claiming that the attack should serve as a warning to others. Members of the group follow a strict version of the local religion and believe girls are not permitted to go to school. Malala was targeted because she was appealing for girls’ rights to education in Swat Valley, Pakistan.
Malala recovers from the attack at Queen Elizabeth Hospital in Birmingham, England. After a long period of recovery, Malala is starting as a nine-year student at Edgbaston High School. It is the oldest independent girl school in Birmingham, England. Though she has no concrete plans to return to Pakistan, Malala still speaks out as a voice for change in her country and everywhere.
“I am excited that today I have achieved my dreams of going back to school. I want all girls in the world to have this basic opportunity,” Malala said in a statement. “I miss my classmates from Pakistan very much but I am looking forward to meeting my teachers and making new friends here in Birmingham.”
Malala has been an Internet blogger, or writer, since she was 11 years old. In 2011 she was awarded Pakistan’s National Peace Award for her bravery in writing about difficulties of life and education in the shadow of Taliban. She has spoken publicly about children’s rights and been nominated（提名）for an international children’s peace prize.
After the attack in 2012, support for Malala poured in from around the world. The United Nations declared November 10 Malala Day. Former British Prime Minister Gordon Brown said the day honors Malala and shows the world that people of all sexes, all backgrounds and all countries stand behind the heroine.

There are a lot of people that we need to be grateful to in our daily life, some of whom are our friends, but still someone who are our oppositions. How can we treat our rivals Maybe someone will see them as enemies, but in my opinion, they should be regarded as helpers.
Why do I have such an idea Firstly, because it is the competitors that make you stronger and braver. As a famous German philosopher Friedrich Nietzsche once said “What does not kill me, makes me stronger.” I do believe that a person who is better than you in a certain respect will inspire you to reflect on what you used to be, and develop yourself. For example, if you want to be the champion of an women event, you have to be trained with a man competitor.
In addition, another reason why I have the idea is that the rivals will stimulate you to tell you where your true disadvantages are. Of course, while your friends can fight together with you, sometimes they cherish your friendship too much to point your problems directly. What’s more, the opponents will take a surprise behind, from where you will know their strengths and your own weakness.
At last, I do hope every fellow student who would like to improve yourself searches for an opponent, making great progress with the help of him. Do remember to admire your oppositions and learn a lesson from the events where you are defeated by rivals.

Hello, my name is Mike Smith. I was going to buy the river rat tubes for our trip but there was only one in stock（库存）. I bought that one and two of these. They all worked perfectly.

I’d done it before, and so I had no reason to believe that this time would be any different. I was sure of that when I returned home from my mission trip. As always, I’d bring back nothing more than some mud on my boots. A hole or two in my jeans and, of course, a lot of great memories.
The summer before my high school graduation, I went to West Virginia with others as volunteers to repair the homes of those in need. Arriving at our destination, my group was assigned the task of rebuilding sections of a home that had been damaged by fire. No sooner had we parked on the home’s dirt driveway than we saw an excited little girl, no more than six years old, standing in the doorway of the family’s temporary home. Shoeless and wearing dirty clothes and the biggest smile I’d ever seen, she yelled, “Ma, Ma, they really came!” I didn’t know it then, but her name was Dakota, and four more days would pass before she’d say another word near me.
Behind Dakota was a woman in a wheelchair—her grandmother, we’d soon learn. I also discovered that my job that week would be to help change a fire-damaged dining room into a bedroom for this little girl. Over the following days, I noticed Dakota peeking at us every now and then as we worked. A few times, I tried talking with her, but she remained shy and distant, always flying around us like a tiny butterfly but keeping to herself.
By our fifth and final day, however, this was about to change. Before I went to work on her home on that last morning, I spoke for a moment or two with the grandmother. I was especially pleased when she told me how much Dakota loved her new room—so much. As we talked, I noticed something I hadn’t seen before—Dakota was hiding behind her grandmother.
Cautiously, she stepped into view, and I could see that just like her clothes, her face was still dirty. But no amount of soil could hide those bright blue eyes and big smile. She was simply adorable. Slowly, she began walking toward me. It wasn’t until she was just inches away that I noticed the folded piece of paper in her tiny hand. Silently, she reached up and handed it to me. Once unfolded, I looked at the drawing she’d made with her broken crayons on the back of an old coloring book cover. It was of two girls—one much taller than the other—and they were holding hands. She told me it was supposed to be me and her, and on the bottom of the paper were three little words that instantly broke my heart. Now almost in tears, I couldn’t control myself anymore—I bent down and hugged her. She hugged me, too. And for the longest time, neither of us could let go.
I left for home early the next morning. I was returning with muddy boots and holes in my jeans. But because of Dakota, I brought back something else, too—a greater appreciation for all or the blessings of my life. I’ll never forget that barefoot little butterfly with the big smile and dirty face. I pray that she’ll never forget me either.

C
While learning the science lessons, I used to get a doubt—why ears, nose, tongue and eyes should be called as special senses The basic reason is that these are the channels through which we maintain contact with the surroundings. Though apparently it may feel like these are individual sensory organs, they do show some connectivity. Interestingly, our hearing is less sharp after we eat a heavy food. Isn’t it good for a sound nap after a stomach-full meal That does not mean we go deaf after a meal, but the hearing pitch（强度）does change after a heavy meal.
We usually give credit of the taste to our tongue, but do you know that unless saliva（唾液）dissolves something, our tongue cannot recognize the taste of the food eaten. Taste is nothing but the food chemicals dissolved in the saliva being sensed by the taste buds present on the tongue. Try to dry off your tongue and mouth with a tissue paper and then taste something.
Women are much better smellers than men. They are born with this characteristic ability and can correctly pinpoint the exact fragrance of the sample. We all can store almost 50, 000 different scents（气味）, which are strongly tied to the memories.
Pupils（瞳孔）do not respond to light alone, but to the slightest bit of noise around too. Thus surgeons, watchmakers and those professionals who have to perform a much delicate job do prefer to have a sound-free environment. Even a small noise can dilate（扩大）their pupils, change the focus and blur（使模糊）their vision. If you do not wear glasses or contact lens due to having a 6/6 vision, you are just among the one third of the human population. It is now statistically proved that only one third of the population has perfect vision, rest all are either wearing glasses or are trying to read with a compromised vision.
Each and every one of us has a particular or individualistic or characteristic smell, which is unique to us, except for the identical twins. This smell is very subtle（微妙的）yet can be sensed even by a newborn. It may be due to this scent that the newborn recognizes the presence of his parents around. Many of us can pinpoint the smell of our significant friends and colleagues. A significant part of this phenomenon is guided by genetics but it is also changed by the environment, diet and personal hygiene. This all together creates the unique chemistry that is individualistic for each person.
61. We can learn from Paragraph 1 that .
A. sensory organs’ functions can never be changed for their particular character
B. our hearing is as good as before we have a full meal
C. we feel and learn about the world around us through our eyes, ears, nose and tongue
D. all sensory organs are connected and can be exchanged
62. What may happen after you have had a rich lunch
A. Your hearing pitch may decrease.
B. Your eyes become dim.
C. Your tongue may lose the function of taste.
D. You may feel energetic and fresh.
63. What does the author mean by the underlined sentence in Paragraph 2
A. If your tongue is dried with a tissue paper, it may work as well as before.
B. Our tongues can’t be dried while eating something.
C. A tissue paper is the only thing that can be used to dry our tongues.
D. If your tongue is dried without any saliva on it, it will not work.
64. What makes each person different from anyone else except twins
A. The number of sensory organs.
B. The particular smell of a person.
C. The style of one’s behavior.
D. The functions of sensory organs.
65. What is the text mainly about

The AlphaGo program’s victory is an example of how smart computers have become. But can artificial intelligence（AI）machines act ethically, meaning can they be honest and fair
One example of AI is driverless cars. They are already on California roads, so it is not too soon to ask whether we can program a machine to act ethically. As driverless cars improve, they will save lives. They will make fewer mistakes than human drivers do. Sometimes, however, they will face a choice between lives. Should the cars be programmed to avoid hitting a child running across the road, even if that will put their passengers at risk What about making a sudden turn to avoid a dog What if the only risk is damage to the car itself, not to the passengers
Perhaps there will be lessons to learn from driverless cars, but they are not super-intelligent beings. Teaching ethics to a machine even more intelligent than we are will be the bigger challenge.
About the same time as AlphaGo’s triumph, Microsoft’s ‘chatbot’ took a bad turn. The software, named Taylor, was designed to answer messages from people aged 18-24. Taylor was supposed to be able to learn from the messages she received. She was designed to slowly improve her ability to handle conversations, but some people were teaching Taylor racist（种族主义的）ideas. When she started saying nice things about Hitler, Microsoft turned her off and deleted（删除）her ugliest messages.
AlphaGo’s victory and Taylor’s defeat happened at about the same time. This should be a warning to us. It is one thing to use AI within a game with clear rules and clear goals. It is something very different to use AI in the real world. The unpredictability of the real world may bring to the surface a troubling software problem.
Eric Schmidt is one of the bosses of Google, which owns AlphaGo. He thinks AI will be positive for humans. He said people will be the winner, whatever the outcome. Advances in AI will make human beings smarter, abler and “just better human beings.”
66. What does the author want to show with the example of AlphaGo’s victory
A. Computers will defeat human beings.
B. Computers can become highly intelligent.
C. Computers have unmatched potential.
D. Computers are man’s potential rivals.
67. What does the author mean by AI machines acting ethically
A. They are capable of predicting possible risks.
B. They weigh the gains and losses before reaching a decision.
C. They sacrifice everything to save human lives.
D. They make right decisions when facing moral dilemmas.
68. What is said to be the bigger challenge facing humans in the AI age
A. How to ensure that super-intelligent AI machines act ethically.
B. How to make super-intelligent AI machines share human feelings.
C. How to prevent AI machines doing harm to humans.
D. How to avoid being over-dependent on AI machines.
69. What do we learn about Microsoft’s “chatbot” Taylor
A. She could turn herself off when necessary.
B. She was not made to handle novel situations.
C. She could not distinguish good from bad.
D. She was good at performing routine tasks.
70. What does Eric Schmidt think of artificial intelligence
A. It will be far superior to human beings.
B. It will keep improving as time goes by.
C. It will be here to stay whatever the outcome.
D. It will prove to be of value to human beings.

On March 19, Malala Yousafzai, a 15-year-old Pakistani student and women’s education activist, returned to the classroom for the first time since being violently attacked by a member of the Taliban ---- a terrorist organization ---- on October 9, 2012. Malala was shot on her way home from school in Mingora, Pakistan. A Taliban group took responsibility for the attack, claiming that the attack should serve as a warning to others. Members of the group follow a strict version of the local religion and believe girls are not permitted to go to school. Malala was targeted because she was appealing for girls’ rights to education in Swat Valley, Pakistan.
Malala recovers from the attack at Queen Elizabeth Hospital in Birmingham, England. After a long period of recovery, Malala is starting as a nine-year student at Edgbaston High School. It is the oldest independent girl school in Birmingham, England. Though she has no concrete plans to return to Pakistan, Malala still speaks out as a voice for change in her country and everywhere.
“I am excited that today I have achieved my dreams of going back to school. I want all girls in the world to have this basic opportunity,” Malala said in a statement. “I miss my classmates from Pakistan very much but I am looking forward to meeting my teachers and making new friends here in Birmingham.”
Malala has been an Internet blogger, or writer, since she was 11 years old. In 2011 she was awarded Pakistan’s National Peace Award for her bravery in writing about difficulties of life and education in the shadow of Taliban. She has spoken publicly about children’s rights and been nominated（提名）for an international children’s peace prize.
After the attack in 2012, support for Malala poured in from around the world. The United Nations declared November 10 Malala Day.

There are a lot of people that we need to be grateful to in our daily life, some of whom are our friends, but still someone who are our oppositions. How can we treat our rivals Maybe someone will see them as enemies, but in my opinion, they should be regarded as helpers.
Why do I have such an idea Firstly, because it is the competitors that make you stronger and braver. As a famous German philosopher Friedrich Nietzsche once said “What does not kill me, makes me stronger.” I do believe that a person who is better than you in a certain respect will inspire you to reflect on what you used to be, and develop yourself. For example, if you want to be the champion of an women event, you have to be trained with a man competitor.
In addition, another reason why I have the idea is that the rivals will stimulate you to tell you where your true disadvantages are. Of course, while your friends can fight together with you, sometimes they cherish your friendship too much to point your problems directly. What’s more, the opponents will take a surprise behind, from where you will know their strengths and your own weakness.
At last, I do hope every fellow student who would like to improve yourself searches for an opponent, making great progress with the help of him. Do remember to admire your oppositions and learn a lesson from the events where you are defeated by rivals.
