Nov. 21 is World Hello Day. It began back in the 1970s as part of an effort to make the world more peaceful. It was created by the United Nations just after the war between Israel and Egypt in 1973. The philosophy(理念) behind it is: Say "Hello" and stop war.
It sounds like a fine idea, but most of us know that simply saying "Hello" won't bring about world peace. Still, on a smaller range, the simple act of saying "Hello" to someone can make a lot of difference.
This might not be obvious. After all, it's such a casual thing and requires so little effort. You raise your head to someone as you pass by them in the school corridor(走廊), say "Hello" then it's over.
Although we might not realize it, a small thing like a greeting can mean a lot to a person. Many people are lonely because they're shy. They find it difficult to communicate with people, even though they want to. It leads to them feeling cut off.
On this basis, maybe it's a good idea, not just on Nov. 21, but every day, to remember to say "Hello" to as many people as you can. The stranger who hears your greeting may secretly smile in their heart. You might even make their day.
Greeting other people is the easiest way to be polite. Politeness is the way we individual humans link up with the rest of the human world outside of our circles of family and friends. Politeness is one of the aspects of culture that makes us a society rather than just many individuals living in the same space.
No one said it better than the French author Joseph Joubert: "Politeness is the flower of humanity". A "Hello" to a stranger is a small thing, and often neglected(忽视), but through it we can make the world better for another person.
1. What is World Hello Day intended for
A. Philosophy. B. Peace. C. Politeness. D. War.
2. Why do many people feel lonely
A. They are unwilling to communicate with others.
B. They are too shy to communicate with others.
C. They are very fond of living alone.
D. They don't like doing things as others do.
3. What has an effect on people most
A. Raising heads to others. B. Doing something casually.
C. Meeting in the school corridor, D. The simple act of saying "Hello".
4. What can we learn from the last paragraph
A. We should neglect a small thing.
B. Saying "Hello" to others is powerful.
C. The flowers make the world better.
D. No one is better than Joseph Joubert.
C
Despite the anxiety that the first digital novel caused in 1993, publishers weren't too concerned that e-books would one day replace printed books. However, that attitude was changed suddenly in 2007 when Kindle came onto the market, which led to e-book sales jumping up to 1,260%. Since then, e-books' popularity has continued to rise steadily. The publishing industry seemed to have lost all the possible ability to regain its position. Will printed books eventually become a thing of the past According to Mike Shatzkin, founder and CEO of the Idea Logical Company, printed books just for reading will, in 10 years from now, be unusual. "Not so unusual that a kid will say,
'Mommy,what's that ' but unusual enough that on the train you'll see one or two people reading something printed, while everyone else is reading on a tablet computer screen." And Shatzkin believes that the demise of print is sure to happen, though such a day won't arrive for perhaps 50 to 100 or more years.
Robert Stein, founder of The Institute for the Future of the Book, however, believes that books won't disappear entirely, at least not anytime soon. "Print will exist, and it may have an artistic value," he says. He predicts that the distance between writers and readers will be made less obvious by a social reading experience in which authors and consumers can digitally interact with each other to discuss any passage, sentence or line.
Should print really disappear entirely According to Maryanne Wolf, director of the Center for Reading and Language Research at Tufts University, electronic reading can negatively affect the way the brain responds to the text, including reading comprehension and the ability to pay attention to details like the order of events. "My worry is that we'll have a short-circuited (短路的) reading brain, excellent for gathering information but not necessarily for forming critical, analytical deep reading skills," Wolf says. He hopes that we continue to keep a "bi-literate" society — one that values both the digital and printed words. "A full reading brain circuit is a huge contribution to the intellectual development of our species. Anything that threatens it deserves our attention."
1.How did publishers feel about the rising e-book sales inspired by Amazon Kindle
A.Worried. B.Excited. C.Curious. D.Doubtful.
2.What does the underlined word "demise" in Paragraph 1 probably mean
A.Rise. B.Death. C.Adjustment. D.Popularity.
3.According to Robert Stein, paper books will exist because of _________.
A.the artistic value B.the digital interaction
C.the growing popularity D.the traditional design
4.It can be concluded from the last paragraph that Wolf holds that _________.
A.e-reading will strengthen the power of our brain
B.digital books and paper books should not coexist
C.e-reading will make us more critical and thoughtful
D.we should not risk losing a full reading brain circuit
D
While famous foreign architects are invited to lead the designs of landmark buildings in China such as the new CCTV tower and the National Center for the Performing Arts, many excellent Chinese architects are making great efforts to take the center stage.
Their efforts have been proven fruitful. Wang Shu, a 49-year-old Chinese architect, won the 2012 Pritzker Architecture Prize—which is often referred to as the Nobel Prize in architecture—on February 28. He is the first Chinese citizen to win this award.
Wang serves as head of the Architecture Department at the China Academy of Art (CAA). His office is located at the Xiangshan campus(校园) of the university in Hangzhou, Zhejiang Province. Many buildings on the campus are his original creations.
The style of the campus is quite different from that of most Chinese universities. Many visitors were amazed by the complex architectural space and abundant building types. The curves(曲线) of the buildings perfectly match the rise and fall of hills, forming a unique view.
Wang collected more than 7 million abandoned bricks of different ages. He asked the workers to use traditional techniques to make the bricks into walls, roofs and corridors. This creation attracted a lot of attention thanks to its mixture of modern and traditional Chinese elements(元素).
Wang's works show a deep understanding of modem architecture and a good knowledge of traditions. Through such a balance, he had created a new type of Chinese architecture, said Tadao Ando, the winner of the 1995 Pritzker Prize.
Wang believes traditions should not be sealed in glass boxes at museums. "That is only evidence that traditions once existed," he said.
"Many Chinese people have a misunderstanding of traditions. They think tradition means old things from the past. In fact, tradition also refers to the things that have been developing and that are still being created," he said.
"Today, many Chinese people are learning Western styles and theories rather than focusing on Chinese traditions. Many people tend to talk about traditions without knowing what they really are," said Wang.
The study of traditions should be combined with practice. Otherwise, the recreation of traditions would be artificial and empty, he said.
1. Wang's winning of the prize means that Chinese architects are _____.
A.following the latest world trend B.getting international recognition
C.working harder than ever before D.relying on foreign architects
2.What impressed visitors to the CAA Xiangshan campus most
A.Its hilly environment. B. Its large size.
C. Its unique style. D. Its diverse functions.
3.What made Wang's architectural design a success
A.The mixture of different shapes. B.The balance of East and West.
C.The use of popular techniques. D.The harmony of old and new.
4.What should we do about Chinese traditions according to Wang
A.Spread them to the world. B.Preserve them at museums.
C.Teach them in universities. D.Recreate them in practice.

阅读下面短文, 从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
George Church, a leading professor of genetics at Harvard University, is planning to create a dating app that can match users based on their genetic agreement.
①_____.Two people considering going on a date take out their smartphones first and check each other's genetic table to see whether there are any undesirable genes that cannot be determined from his/her outward appearance. Genetic deficiencies (基因缺陷) that might lead to diseases in offspring will be screened out first. Heart disease No. Immune deficiency No. Hemophilia No.
②_____. Eye color, height preference, curly or straight hair. In the end, only those with the genes that promise the users a perfect child will date.
It sounds terrible. If the app becomes a reality, it could split people into different camps based on the genes they carry.
Some might argue that even now people are not wholly equal to each other—there are the rich and the poor to begin with. ③_____. Genes, on the other hand, are fixed, with no hope of changing at least in the near future.
Church didn't have this divisive goal in mind. In an interview, he said he hoped to let people know the genetic deficiencies in their mating partners so as to minimize the chances of giving birth to children with diseases. ④_____.
The problem is not so much with genetic technology, which can help people find possible diseases before birth, and possibly even cure them through gene editing. But it would be a mistake to let everybody know of each other’s genetic information and make choices on that basis.
⑤_____. Gene sequencing (基因排序) is becoming increasingly popular with many people choosing to know their genes better. It is reaching a stage where it becomes urgent for the law to protect such information and avoid possible leaks.
A.He will make it.
B.This is how it works.
C.That in turn calls for legislation (立法).
D.The app will be popular with different people.
E.Then comes the turn of harmless appearance characteristics.
F.But he will not be able to stop the above-mentioned possibility.
G.However, one can always struggle to improve one's quality of life.

阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
We often take for granted the very things that most deserve our gratitude.
Growing up, I wanted to be just like my mom. Kind and caring, she always seemed to make people comfortable in her presence. For years she was a volunteer in our community. I loved going to the local nursing home to help with her until I hit my preteen years. Suddenly, I was too caught up in my adolescent world to worry about helping others.
One particular summer day when I was twelve, Mom came into my room and told me to get up and meet her at the car. I had planned to spend the day at the lake with friends. Why did she have to ruin everything Eventually, I made my way outside. I imagined the lake water cooling my skin. Annoyed, I climbed into the car and slammed the door shut. I sat in silence, too upset to make a conversation.
"Tasha, would you like to know where we are going " Mom asked calmly.
"I guess..." I murmured under my breath.
"Sweetheart, we are going to a children's shelter, I have been there before and I think it would benefit you," she explained.
I felt a knot slowly form in my stomach. How was I supposed to help there
When we reached the shelter, I was rather surprised. It was a large white Victorian home. As we approached the large front porch, wind bells played a calming tune while trees and blossoms welcomed us. Maybe this wasn't going to be so bad.
Mom rang the doorbell. The door flew open and we were led to the front room, where all of the children were playing.
Toys were spread out across the floor, I noticed a baby whose body was scarred with wounds. The majority of the children had noticeable physical scars(伤疤) such as cuts, scratches and bums. What a terrible life they had had before they moved here! My heart sank.
注意:续写词数应为150左右。
As I was looking around, I felt a gentle pull on my shirt. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
I returned to the shelter with Mom several times. ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
答案以及解析

第一节
A.答案：1-3.AAB
解析：1.细节理解题。根据第一段中的第三、四、五句话可知,你想用惊心动魄的旅行来感到心潮澎湃吗 不要再到处找了!这些旅游和目的地将让你整周都保持兴奋。接着介绍了四个目的地和旅游项目,所以文中提到的旅游的相似之处是都是令人激动的。
2.细节理解题。由第二段中的第一句话可知这个没有被重视的目的地对大多数旅游者来说是一个鲜为人知的秘密。由此可知,大部分旅游者都不太了解Panama,选项A “Panama对大部分旅游者而言不是太有名”符合题意。
3.细节理解题。第二段"Panama: Eight days tours for $250/day." 8×250=2 000美元,第三段"Canada: During this twelve days tour... Tours to Canada for $200/day." 200 ×12=2 400美元,第四段"Iceland: Seven days tours for $300/day." 300×7=2 100美元,第五段"South Africa: Nine days tours for $230/day." 230 × 9=2 070美元,所以Canada这一目的地花钱最多,选项B切题。
B.答案：1-4 BBDB
解析：1.考查细节理解。由第一段中的"Nov.21 is World Hello Day. It began back in the 1970s as part of an effort to make the world more peaceful"可知,世界问候日的目的在于倡导世界和平,故选B。
2.考查细节理解。由第四段中的"Many people are lonely because they're shy. They find it difficult to communicate with people, even though they want to."可知,有人感到孤独是因为他们太胆怯了,以至于难以和别人交流,故选B。
3.考查推理判断。由第五段可推知，一个简单的说“你好”的行为对人们的影响最大。
4.考查推理判断。对别人说“你好”看似是一件小事，但这一句小小的问候可能会让别人的世界变得更美好。
C.答案：1-4.ABAD
解析：1.考查细节理解。根据第一段前两句内容可知,电子书的销量大幅上升使出版商开始担心电子书会取代纸质书。故选A。

3.考查细节理解。根据第二段第二句话可知,Robert Stein认为纸质书会因为其艺术价值而继续存在。故选A。

第二节
答案：①-⑤BEGFC
解析：①根据本段内容可知，两个想要约会的人先拿出智能手机，检查对方的基因表，看看是否有不能从外表判断出来的不良基因，遗传疾病的基因缺陷将首先被筛选出来。由此可知本段主要介绍的是这款应用程序是如何工作的，故B项（它的工作原理是这样的。）符合语境。
②空后提到的眼睛颜色、身高、卷发或直发都属于外表方面的特征，因此本段主要讲的是外表上的特征，故E项（然后是无害的外表特征。）符合语境。
③空前说有人可能会说即使是现在，人们也不是完全平等的，一开始就有穷富之分，此处承接上文，讲的是关于生活质量方面的内容，故G项（然而，一个人总是可以努力提高自己的生活质量。）符合语境。
④空前说在一次采访中，丘奇说他希望让人们知道他们的伴侣的遗传缺陷，从而尽量减少生下有疾病的孩子的可能性，此处承接上文，讲的是他无法控制上面提到的情况，F项中的he指代的就是前面的Church，故F项（但他无法阻止上述的可能性。）符合语境。
⑤空后说制定保护这些信息，避免可能的泄露的法律已经到了刻不容缓的阶段，因此此处讲的应该是与法律相关的话题，故C项（那相应地需要立法。）符合语境。
第二部分 语言运用
第一节
答案：1-5.ADDCB; 6-10.DACBB; 11-15.DCACC

7.联系上下文可知,该句与前一句为转折关系,故However符合文意。
8.联系语境可知,此处指受到经济灾难和个人不幸的影响。personal disaster指代上文中提到的"his wife died"。故选C。
9.联系语境可知,受到经济大萧条和妻子去世的影响,Christiansen解雇了很多工人,为维持生计苦苦挣扎。struggle"奋斗,拼搏"。故B项符合文意。
10.根据下文可知,他的事业大获成功,故此处指这些悲剧对他生意的恢复很重要。recover"(从糟糕经历中)恢复"。故选B。
11.他做了一个艰难的决定:做一些可能会好卖的便宜商品。inexpensive"不昂贵的"。故选D。
12.根据下一句的转折可知,起初这个决定并没有取得成功。pay off"成功,奏效,达到目的"。故选C。
13.根据上文可知,他的决定起初并没有成功,所以可推知他的公司当时正在经历最艰难的时期。go through"经历某事(指困境、痛苦等)"。故选A。

答案： As I was looking around, I felt a gentle pull on my shirt. I looked down to see a little girl with brown eyes looking up at me. Her angelic face beamed, though, as I could see, there were some scars on her little arms.'' Hi. I'm Ashley. You want play dolls with me " she asked. I looked over and saw Mom nodding to me with a smile. I bent toward Ashley and whispered, "Sure. I'd love to." Her tiny hand reached up and took mine, and we walked toward the doll house. Our time together brought her great joy and fun and she also made my day.
I returned to the shelter with Mom several times. During those visits, some of the children including Ashley shared their troubled pasts with me in great detail. I felt sore for what had happened to them and treasured the friendship between us. I would like to do everything in my power to help the children there. At the same time, I learned to be grateful for all that I had. It was a profound time in my young life that I will never forget. It was Mom who taught me the valuable lesson that summer.

Nov. 21 is World Hello Day. It began back in the 1970s as part of an effort to make the world more peaceful. It was created by the United Nations just after the war between Israel and Egypt in 1973. The philosophy(理念) behind it is: Say "Hello" and stop war.
It sounds like a fine idea, but most of us know that simply saying "Hello" won't bring about world peace. Still, on a smaller range, the simple act of saying "Hello" to someone can make a lot of difference.
This might not be obvious. After all, it's such a casual thing and requires so little effort. You raise your head to someone as you pass by them in the school corridor(走廊), say "Hello" then it's over.
Although we might not realize it, a small thing like a greeting can mean a lot to a person. Many people are lonely because they're shy. They find it difficult to communicate with people, even though they want to. It leads to them feeling cut off.
On this basis, maybe it's a good idea, not just on Nov. 21, but every day, to remember to say "Hello" to as many people as you can. The stranger who hears your greeting may secretly smile in their heart. You might even make their day.
Greeting other people is the easiest way to be polite. Politeness is the way we individual humans link up with the rest of the human world outside of our circles of family and friends. Politeness is one of the aspects of culture that makes us a society rather than just many individuals living in the same space.
No one said it better than the French author Joseph Joubert: "Politeness is the flower of humanity". A "Hello" to a stranger is a small thing, and often neglected(忽视), but through it we can make the world better for another person.
1. What is World Hello Day intended for
A. Philosophy. B. Peace. C. Politeness. D. War.
2. Why do many people feel lonely
A. They are unwilling to communicate with others.
B. They are too shy to communicate with others.
C. They are very fond of living alone.
D. They don't like doing things as others do.
3. What has an effect on people most
A. Raising heads to others. B. Doing something casually.
C. Meeting in the school corridor, D. The simple act of saying "Hello".
4. What can we learn from the last paragraph
A. We should neglect a small thing.
B. Saying "Hello" to others is powerful.
C. The flowers make the world better.
D. No one is better than Joseph Joubert.

Despite the anxiety that the first digital novel caused in 1993, publishers weren't too concerned that e-books would one day replace printed books. However, that attitude was changed suddenly in 2007 when Kindle came onto the market, which led to e-book sales jumping up to 1,260%. Since then, e-books' popularity has continued to rise steadily. The publishing industry seemed to have lost all the possible ability to regain its position. Will printed books eventually become a thing of the past According to Mike Shatzkin, founder and CEO of the Idea Logical Company, printed books just for reading will, in 10 years from now, be unusual. "Not so unusual that a kid will say,
'Mommy,what's that ' but unusual enough that on the train you'll see one or two people reading something printed, while everyone else is reading on a tablet computer screen." And Shatzkin believes that the demise of print is sure to happen, though such a day won't arrive for perhaps 50 to 100 or more years.
Robert Stein, founder of The Institute for the Future of the Book, however, believes that books won't disappear entirely, at least not anytime soon. "Print will exist, and it may have an artistic value," he says. He predicts that the distance between writers and readers will be made less obvious by a social reading experience in which authors and consumers can digitally interact with each other to discuss any passage, sentence or line.
Should print really disappear entirely According to Maryanne Wolf, director of the Center for Reading and Language Research at Tufts University, electronic reading can negatively affect the way the brain responds to the text, including reading comprehension and the ability to pay attention to details like the order of events. "My worry is that we'll have a short-circuited (短路的) reading brain, excellent for gathering information but not necessarily for forming critical, analytical deep reading skills," Wolf says. He hopes that we continue to keep a "bi-literate" society — one that values both the digital and printed words. "A full reading brain circuit is a huge contribution to the intellectual development of our species. Anything that threatens it deserves our attention."
1.How did publishers feel about the rising e-book sales inspired by Amazon Kindle
A.Worried. B.Excited. C.Curious. D.Doubtful.
2.What does the underlined word "demise" in Paragraph 1 probably mean
A.Rise. B.Death. C.Adjustment. D.Popularity.
3.According to Robert Stein, paper books will exist because of _________.
A.the artistic value B.the digital interaction
C.the growing popularity D.the traditional design
4.It can be concluded from the last paragraph that Wolf holds that _________.
A.e-reading will strengthen the power of our brain
B.digital books and paper books should not coexist
C.e-reading will make us more critical and thoughtful
D.we should not risk losing a full reading brain circuit
D
While famous foreign architects are invited to lead the designs of landmark buildings in China such as the new CCTV tower and the National Center for the Performing Arts, many excellent Chinese architects are making great efforts to take the center stage.
Their efforts have been proven fruitful. Wang Shu, a 49-year-old Chinese architect, won the 2012 Pritzker Architecture Prize—which is often referred to as the Nobel Prize in architecture—on February 28. He is the first Chinese citizen to win this award.
Wang serves as head of the Architecture Department at the China Academy of Art (CAA). His office is located at the Xiangshan campus(校园) of the university in Hangzhou, Zhejiang Province. Many buildings on the campus are his original creations.
The style of the campus is quite different from that of most Chinese universities. Many visitors were amazed by the complex architectural space and abundant building types. The curves(曲线) of the buildings perfectly match the rise and fall of hills, forming a unique view.
Wang collected more than 7 million abandoned bricks of different ages. He asked the workers to use traditional techniques to make the bricks into walls, roofs and corridors. This creation attracted a lot of attention thanks to its mixture of modern and traditional Chinese elements(元素).
Wang's works show a deep understanding of modem architecture and a good knowledge of traditions. Through such a balance, he had created a new type of Chinese architecture, said Tadao Ando, the winner of the 1995 Pritzker Prize.
Wang believes traditions should not be sealed in glass boxes at museums. "That is only evidence that traditions once existed," he said.
"Many Chinese people have a misunderstanding of traditions. They think tradition means old things from the past. In fact, tradition also refers to the things that have been developing and that are still being created," he said.
"Today, many Chinese people are learning Western styles and theories rather than focusing on Chinese traditions. Many people tend to talk about traditions without knowing what they really are," said Wang.
The study of traditions should be combined with practice. Otherwise, the recreation of traditions would be artificial and empty, he said.
1. Wang's winning of the prize means that Chinese architects are _____.
A.following the latest world trend B.getting international recognition
C.working harder than ever before D.relying on foreign architects
2.What impressed visitors to the CAA Xiangshan campus most
A.Its hilly environment. B. Its large size.
C. Its unique style. D. Its diverse functions.
3.What made Wang's architectural design a success
A.The mixture of different shapes. B.The balance of East and West.
C.The use of popular techniques. D.The harmony of old and new.
4.What should we do about Chinese traditions according to Wang
A.Spread them to the world. B.Preserve them at museums.
C.Teach them in universities. D.Recreate them in practice.

George Church, a leading professor of genetics at Harvard University, is planning to create a dating app that can match users based on their genetic agreement.
①_____.Two people considering going on a date take out their smartphones first and check each other's genetic table to see whether there are any undesirable genes that cannot be determined from his/her outward appearance. Genetic deficiencies (基因缺陷) that might lead to diseases in offspring will be screened out first. Heart disease No. Immune deficiency No. Hemophilia No.
②_____. Eye color, height preference, curly or straight hair. In the end, only those with the genes that promise the users a perfect child will date.
It sounds terrible. If the app becomes a reality, it could split people into different camps based on the genes they carry.
Some might argue that even now people are not wholly equal to each other—there are the rich and the poor to begin with. ③_____. Genes, on the other hand, are fixed, with no hope of changing at least in the near future.
Church didn't have this divisive goal in mind. In an interview, he said he hoped to let people know the genetic deficiencies in their mating partners so as to minimize the chances of giving birth to children with diseases. ④_____.
The problem is not so much with genetic technology, which can help people find possible diseases before birth, and possibly even cure them through gene editing. But it would be a mistake to let everybody know of each other’s genetic information and make choices on that basis.
⑤_____. Gene sequencing (基因排序) is becoming increasingly popular with many people choosing to know their genes better. It is reaching a stage where it becomes urgent for the law to protect such information and avoid possible leaks.
A.He will make it.
B.This is how it works.
C.That in turn calls for legislation (立法).
D.The app will be popular with different people.
E.Then comes the turn of harmless appearance characteristics.
F.But he will not be able to stop the above-mentioned possibility.
G.However, one can always struggle to improve one's quality of life.

阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
We often take for granted the very things that most deserve our gratitude.
Growing up, I wanted to be just like my mom. Kind and caring, she always seemed to make people comfortable in her presence. For years she was a volunteer in our community. I loved going to the local nursing home to help with her until I hit my preteen years. Suddenly, I was too caught up in my adolescent world to worry about helping others.
One particular summer day when I was twelve, Mom came into my room and told me to get up and meet her at the car. I had planned to spend the day at the lake with friends. Why did she have to ruin everything Eventually, I made my way outside. I imagined the lake water cooling my skin. Annoyed, I climbed into the car and slammed the door shut. I sat in silence, too upset to make a conversation.
"Tasha, would you like to know where we are going " Mom asked calmly.
"I guess..." I murmured under my breath.
"Sweetheart, we are going to a children's shelter, I have been there before and I think it would benefit you," she explained.
I felt a knot slowly form in my stomach. How was I supposed to help there
When we reached the shelter, I was rather surprised. It was a large white Victorian home. As we approached the large front porch, wind bells played a calming tune while trees and blossoms welcomed us. Maybe this wasn't going to be so bad.
Mom rang the doorbell. The door flew open and we were led to the front room, where all of the children were playing.
Toys were spread out across the floor, I noticed a baby whose body was scarred with wounds. The majority of the children had noticeable physical scars(伤疤) such as cuts, scratches and bums. What a terrible life they had had before they moved here! My heart sank.
注意:续写词数应为150左右。
As I was looking around, I felt a gentle pull on my shirt. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
I returned to the shelter with Mom several times. ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

解析：1.细节理解题。根据第一段中的第三、四、五句话可知,你想用惊心动魄的旅行来感到心潮澎湃吗 不要再到处找了!这些旅游和目的地将让你整周都保持兴奋。接着介绍了四个目的地和旅游项目,所以文中提到的旅游的相似之处是都是令人激动的。

3.细节理解题。第二段"Panama: Eight days tours for $250/day." 8×250=2 000美元,第三段"Canada: During this twelve days tour... Tours to Canada for $200/day." 200 ×12=2 400美元,第四段"Iceland: Seven days tours for $300/day." 300×7=2 100美元,第五段"South Africa: Nine days tours for $230/day." 230 × 9=2 070美元,所以Canada这一目的地花钱最多,选项B切题。

答案：①-⑤BEGFC
解析：①根据本段内容可知，两个想要约会的人先拿出智能手机，检查对方的基因表，看看是否有不能从外表判断出来的不良基因，遗传疾病的基因缺陷将首先被筛选出来。由此可知本段主要介绍的是这款应用程序是如何工作的，故B项（它的工作原理是这样的。）符合语境。
②空后提到的眼睛颜色、身高、卷发或直发都属于外表方面的特征，因此本段主要讲的是外表上的特征，故E项（然后是无害的外表特征。）符合语境。
③空前说有人可能会说即使是现在，人们也不是完全平等的，一开始就有穷富之分，此处承接上文，讲的是关于生活质量方面的内容，故G项（然而，一个人总是可以努力提高自己的生活质量。）符合语境。
④空前说在一次采访中，丘奇说他希望让人们知道他们的伴侣的遗传缺陷，从而尽量减少生下有疾病的孩子的可能性，此处承接上文，讲的是他无法控制上面提到的情况，F项中的he指代的就是前面的Church，故F项（但他无法阻止上述的可能性。）符合语境。
⑤空后说制定保护这些信息，避免可能的泄露的法律已经到了刻不容缓的阶段，因此此处讲的应该是与法律相关的话题，故C项（那相应地需要立法。）符合语境。

第一节
答案：1-5.ADDCB; 6-10.DACBB; 11-15.DCACC

7.联系上下文可知,该句与前一句为转折关系,故However符合文意。
8.联系语境可知,此处指受到经济灾难和个人不幸的影响。personal disaster指代上文中提到的"his wife died"。故选C。
9.联系语境可知,受到经济大萧条和妻子去世的影响,Christiansen解雇了很多工人,为维持生计苦苦挣扎。struggle"奋斗,拼搏"。故B项符合文意。
10.根据下文可知,他的事业大获成功,故此处指这些悲剧对他生意的恢复很重要。recover"(从糟糕经历中)恢复"。故选B。
11.他做了一个艰难的决定:做一些可能会好卖的便宜商品。inexpensive"不昂贵的"。故选D。
12.根据下一句的转折可知,起初这个决定并没有取得成功。pay off"成功,奏效,达到目的"。故选C。

第二节
答案： As I was looking around, I felt a gentle pull on my shirt. I looked down to see a little girl with brown eyes looking up at me. Her angelic face beamed, though, as I could see, there were some scars on her little arms.'' Hi. I'm Ashley. You want play dolls with me " she asked. I looked over and saw Mom nodding to me with a smile. I bent toward Ashley and whispered, "Sure. I'd love to." Her tiny hand reached up and took mine, and we walked toward the doll house. Our time together brought her great joy and fun and she also made my day.
I returned to the shelter with Mom several times. During those visits, some of the children including Ashley shared their troubled pasts with me in great detail. I felt sore for what had happened to them and treasured the friendship between us. I would like to do everything in my power to help the children there. At the same time, I learned to be grateful for all that I had. It was a profound time in my young life that I will never forget. It was Mom who taught me the valuable lesson that summer.
