The Importance of a Child’s Gift
On the first day of fourth grade, my teacher, Mrs. Brown, told my class a story about her husband Rob, who is a brain cancer survivor. She talked about their journey through his treatment and recovery. After what Mrs. Brown experienced with Rob’s illness, she decided to devote part of her life to helping people in similar situations. She told us about a local organization she was a part of called Be Head Strong (BHS), which works to support and comfort families with a member suffering from brain cancer. Her strength and attitude toward her situation inspired me and led me to realize some significant lessons about love and hope.
One day, when I was looking at the money that I had saved, I thought about the stories Mrs. Brown had told us, about Rob and all the other remarkable people she worked with through BHS. I decided that was where I wanted my money to go.
As the last day of school approached, I wrapped the heart-shaped box full of dollars and coins. After all the other kids had left on the last day of school, I handed Mrs. Brown the present. As she opened it, I told her that I wanted the money to go to BHS to help people like Rob. She broke into tears and hugged me tightly.
I was invited to BHS’s annual fundraiser and auction (拍卖). The night’s theme was hope and giving. The auctioneer told everyone the story of my gift to Mrs. Brown, the $131. 30. At the end, he asked, “How many of you are willing to do what a fourth grade girl did and donate $131. 30 ” At that point nearly everyone in the room raised their bidding numbers. At that moment I realized that the money I had donated had become something bigger than that.
Inspired by Mrs. Brown, I continued my fundraising through the years, starting fundraisers and helping with BHS events. The joy that I found in this organization never came from any recognition that I received for my action. I gained belief and hope from the people that I met and worked with in BHS. These events and experiences have shown me what love can bring in bad situations. I want to spend much of my life volunteering.
People may not always realize how big of an impact one kind gesture can make. Mrs. Brown sparked a decision in my life that has changed how I live.
24. What made the author better understand love and hope

Beyond Identity
We often think of ourselves as our body, mind, and emotions. However, we also often talk about a person’s soul. Is there any scientific basis for the soul Surprisingly, there is. Each unique personality a person has, the feeling and identity of the self beyond age, and our inevitable subjective experience as an individual make a scientific foundation for the soul.
Despite the constant change in the links between our brain cells, we remain the same personality. This is most obvious in the case of mentally ill patients or people who have experienced memory loss. Science journalist Michael Lemonick told the story of Lonni Sue, who suffered brain damage and was left unable to recall her past or to form new memories. Lemonick thought that Lonni Sue, when she lost her memories, lost her self. But once he got to know her, as well as people who knew her before and after her injury, Lemonick discovered that herself had not been destroyed. She was still cheerful in a way that made people around her feel better, and she was still creative and playful. So, despite memory loss, we still have the essence of our personality. Basically, no matter what happens to our brain, our unique personality seems to shine through.
Besides one’s personality being present despite memory loss, the soul of a person can be identified through one’s consciousness (意识). Though we commonly identify with our body and what we see in the mirror, we also have a sense that we are not a certain age—as our sense of self usually depends less on age and rather on our subjective feeling of who we are.
Lastly, each person is inevitably subjective about his or her experience. Despite humans being very similar to each other in DNA, our view on reality is very different from individual to individual.
The soul of a person is challenging to prove scientifically. However, with each person’s personality being unique, the behavioral quality of thinking of the self beyond age, and our inevitable subjective experience, we can say that the soul has some basis in science. These realities of our behavior, character, and perception might not be tested, but they are very difficult to deny.
28. The author tells the story of Lonni Sue to show _______.
A. the stability of people’s personality
B. strange behaviors of mentally ill patients
C. the chance for the mentally ill to form new memories
D. the changes of the people who suffered brain damage
29. What does the underlined word “essence” in Paragraph 2 probably mean
A. Past memory. B. Changeable belief.
C. Optimistic attitude. D. Important nature.
30. What can we learn from the passage
A. Our body, mind and emotions tell who we are.
B. The soul of a person changes as he or she grows old.
C. Scientific research has already proved what makes up our soul.
D. Our soul depends on our personality, consciousness and experience.
D
As online learning becomes more common and more and more resources become digital form, some people have suggested that public libraries should be shut down and, in their place, everyone should be given an iPad.
Supporters of this idea state that it will save local cities and towns money because libraries are expensive to maintain. They also believe it will encourage more people to read because they won’t have to travel to a library to get a book; they can simply click on what they want to read and read it from wherever they are. They could also access more materials because libraries won’t have to buy physical copies of books.
However, it would be a serious mistake to replace libraries with iPads. First, digital books and resources are associated with less learning and more problems than print resources. A study done on tablet and book reading found that people read 20-30% slower on iPads, remember 20% less information, and understand 10% less of what they read compared to people who read the same information in print. Additionally, staring too long at a screen has been shown to cause some health problems, including dizziness, dry eyes, headaches, shoulder and back pain and so on. We should not add to these problems by giving people, especially young people, more reasons to look at screens.
Second, it is incredibly narrow-minded to assume that the only service libraries offer is book lending. Libraries have more benefits, and many are only available if the library has a physical location. Some of these benefits include acting as a quiet study space, giving people a way to communicate with their neighbors, holding classes on a variety of topics, providing jobs and keeping the community connected. One neighborhood found that, after a local library instituted community events such as play times for kids and parents, job fairs for teenagers, and meeting spaces for senior citizens, over a third of residents reported feeling more connected to their community. Similarly, a survey conducted in 2015 found that nearly two-thirds of American adults feel that closing their local library would have a major impact on their community. People see libraries as a way to connect with others and get their questions answered and benefits iPads can’t offer nearly as well or as easily.
While replacing libraries with iPads may seem like a simple solution, it would encourage people to spend even more time looking at digital screens, despite the issues surrounding them. It would also end access to many of the benefits of libraries that people have come to rely on. In many areas, libraries are such an important part of the community network that they could never be replaced by a simple object.
31. Digital reading supporters may agree that _______.
A. the price is too high to maintain libraries
B. iPads make people’s learning less convenient
C. printed books are more efficient than digital ones
D. iPads encourage people to spend more time on line
32. The author supports his idea in Paragraph 3 by_______.
A. listing figures and showing studying results
B. highlighting the differences between the two media
C. comparing reading efficiency through different media
D. showing advantages and disadvantages of reading with iPads
33. What is the author’s attitude towards the functions of public libraries
A. Unconcerned. B. Confused. C. Positive. D. Negative.
34. What is the best title of the passage
A. Why IPads Encourage People to Read
B. Should Public Libraries Be Shut Down
C. Will IPads Take the Place of Public Libraries
D. How Are IPads And Public Libraries Different

What Is Good Citizenship
Good citizenship is generally defined as how a citizen performs a role to become a useful member of society. This involves duties and responsibilities that may be expressed through laws and regulations. 35
Citizenship, in its general sense, is being part of a community. 36 The factors toward improving lives and relationship of a community include doing volunteer work, initiating community programs, and participating in economic affairs.
A good citizen is an important part of a progressive state. As covered by the social contract theory, a government is established to manage interaction among citizens, define an individual’s rights, enforce these rights, and make sure just compensation (补偿) is obtained when these rights are not obeyed. 37 The purpose of this social contract is to avoid chaos in a community, which is possible without good leadership. From this leadership arises good citizenship, allowing every citizen to expect others to respect for his or her legally demandable rights.
38 The most basic characteristic is the moral duty to recognize the rights of others. Another important characteristic is the ability to listen to the views of others. These views may bring about solutions to problems of the community. A good citizen is also willing to adapt to new situations. 39 Based on these factors, good citizenship is said to be related to both the intellectual and social skills of a citizen.
A. There are many characteristics of good citizenship.
B. Being a good citizen is important in improving the community.
C. Apart from these characteristics, a good citizen knows and obeys the laws of the land.
D. In turn, the citizens hand over to the government the powers that may limit some freedom.
E. This may also involve your behaviors expressed through the recognition of right and wrong.
F. As citizens, we care about others and being good members of our communities and our country.
G. Good citizenship lies in the recognition that members of a community work together to improve their lives and their relationship with one another.
第三部分 书面表达（共两节，32 分）
第一节（共4 小题；第40、41 题各2 分，第42 题3 分，第43 题5 分，共12 分）
阅读下面短文，根据题目要求用英文回答问题。请在答题卡指定区域作答。
Do you ever wonder why the bakers can’t help but smile as they cook tasty treats in your home’s kitchen From pre-heating the oven, mixing the dry and wet ingredients (原料), and up until the satisfying “ding” is heard, the baker can feel the atmosphere lighten up and the mood lifted.
Baking can be a form of treatment and empowerment. At first glance, grasping how baking makes you calm down and acts as a source of joy can seem a bit far-fetched. But bakers can see and feel more while they’re baking. Its process is both a science and art. As they bake, they become more focused and hopeful that the effort they’ve poured paid off. This is the reason for their smiles. The beauty and satisfaction of baking can be further revealed when it is done.
Much like any hobby or a creative outlet, baking allows people to express their emotions and creativity. In every part of the world, cooking for someone is considered as a thoughtful gesture–whether you’re welcoming someone in a home, showing a kind gesture, or expressing your gratitude. The desire to share your food with others is an excellent way to build a connection, showing selflessness and love.
It even becomes more heartfelt if you’re serving the whole family. Nothing beats the happiness of seeing your loved ones enjoy the baked treats you’ve worked hard to prepare.
40. According to the passage, how does the baker feel when the baking is done
41. What is the reason for bakers’ smiles
42. Please decide which part is false in the following statement, then underline it and explain why.
Baking helps people to express emotions and creativity while serving the whole family is the opposite.
43. What are some other ways to help build connections with family members (In about 40 words)
