M：I'd like to mail this package to California.
W：Fill out this form with the required information. You can do this at the side counter. Pens are available there.
(Text 2)
M：Would you like to join us for dinner tonight, Betty
W：I'd love to. Where are we going
M：Oh, Jake made a reservation at a restaurant near my home.
(Text 3)
W：Do you think the weather will be good this weekend
M：I heard it might rain.
W：That's a pity. I'd thought about going hiking in the hills.
M：Well, we can go to that new art gallery instead.
(Text 4)
M：This book is really interesting. I've enjoyed it very much.
W：What is it Is it a novel
M：No, it's a medical book. It's been very popular recently, even though there's obviously boring subject matter.
W：Really I don't think I'd enjoy anything on such a boring topic, even if it is useful. I much prefer science fiction, especially about what life might be like in the future.
(Text 5)
M：Hey, you look great! How did you get in such good shape
W：I've been going to the club regularly, and the training has really paid off. I'm in better shape than I have been for years and I know much more about how to keep fit.
M：I haven't gone to the club for weeks. I am too busy with work.
W：I know. It's so easy to be too busy for exercise, but I've realized that exercise is extremely important to every other aspect of life.
(Text 6)
M：Do you often shop online
W：Oh, yes, quite often. It is very convenient, and it saves me a lot of time.
M：You know, I've never tried online shopping before. I'd like to try, but I'm a bit nervous I'll make a mistake.
W：Ah, you are talking to the right person. If you keep two very important tips in mind, you'll be fine. First, visit more than one site to find the best products and prices. I can tell you some of the best online shops. Second, when you finally place your order, be sure to write your mailing address and phone number correctly, or you might not receive your delivery on time.
M：So what do I do if I want to buy something
W：You just need to provide your name, mailing address, e mail address, phone number and bank card information. I can help you with that.
M：Oh, thank you! That is so nice of you.
(Text 7)
W：Why weren't you at the Spanish class last night, Jack Have you decided to give up
M：No. I came back late yesterday and found John asleep in his chair. He'd been writing a report all day long and he was too tired to go out again. So we gave the lesson a miss.
W：You've missed quite a lot of lessons recently, haven't you Are you losing interest
M：Yes, I'm afraid so. Neither I nor John has a gift for language. People just laugh at us when we attempt to speak Spanish. How did you and Jane pick it up so quickly and easily You've been in Spain for hardly a month.
W：It wasn't all that quick. We'd both studied the language before we came, and we needed a lot of review before we came back.
M：Anyway, all our friends here speak English very well, so we don't really need to learn Spanish.
(Text 8)
M：I am having trouble with my job. Five of my colleagues and I have been working on a project since last Wednesday.
W：Is the project too hard
M：No, it's not all that hard but no one is working together on it.
W：So your group is having a problem with teamwork.
M：Yes. We have to finish it before next Friday, only ten days from now.
W：Is there anyone in charge of the team
M：No. Everyone is just doing their own separate work.
W：If your group doesn't come together, then no one will know what has been done and what still needs to be done.
M：But how do I get them to work together
W：If your group does not have a leader, then you should step up and be one.
M：How do I do that
W：You should call everyone together for a meeting.
M：And then what should I do when I have them all together
W：Let them know that this project is important, and so is working as a team to get it done.
M：Thank you for the advice. I will call everybody now and tell them we are going to have a meeting in the morning.
(Text 9)

M：They do, especially all those essays.
W：Yes, those are hard. I'm not really sure what to write about.
M：I'm glad I'm not applying until the spring, so I have more time to prepare.
W：Yeah, you're lucky you have more time. So do you plan to rent a room near the university you go to
M：Yes, I plan to rent a room near the university and find a roommate to share the cost, so I can save some money.
W：Oh, really My friend Jack wants to do that too. If you're in the same area, perhaps you could rent a place with him.
M：Oh, that's wonderful! Could I get his contact information from you
W：Sure. I'll give you his phone number right now.
M：Thanks!

Future homes will have some really smart cooking tools. Microwave ovens and refrigerators will probably be combined, so that meals can be ready upon one's arrival home.
Future homes may also have refrigerators that can suggest menus based upon the food you have at home. In the home of the future, the refrigerator will probably also be able to take note of all food supplies in the home and inform you when you're running out, or even be programmed to contact the local supermarket to drop off the needed food supplies.
Future homes will also be very energy saving. Microsoft, Google and others are now working on applications to help you see and track which tools use the most electricity, helping you save electricity and thus your daily expenses.
There will most likely also be systems in place for saving and reusing wash water and bath water, which will probably have to be the main origin of future water, so that both plants and people can still have clean water in the future, when water supplies are low.

22．Which of the following tours charges the lowest fee on 17 March
A．Windsor Castle & Hampton Court.

23．Why is Hampton Court a major tourist attraction
A．Because it used to be the home of royal families.
B．Because it used to be a well known maze.
C．Because it is the oldest palace in Britain.

B
When I was in the third grade, we had a hunt at school.We gathered up chalk, pencils, stones, and so on, rapidly filling our checklists. It was a very close race.I was out of breath when I reached the clover (三叶草) patch in search of the last, most hard to find item：a four leaf clover.
I was pretty sure that I was going to win.I have always been able to find four leaf clovers. I just saw them.
I spent my childhood collecting and pressing four leaf clovers into books at my mother's house. I started with big cloth and leather bound books. When I ran out of romantically bound volumes, I began to put my treasures into anything I could find: fiction paperbacks and cookbooks. The same is true in my house today. Shake a book, and a papery treasure just might fall into your hand.
A few years ago, in Nova Scotia, my husband and I pulled off the road for a picnic.The ground was thick with clover. Some shoots had four, five, even six leaves. I lined them up on the picnic table to admire as my husband, never yet having found one four leaf clover, looked on in awe. To me, it was simple.The differences in their shapes popped out, breaking the pretty pattern of the conventional clover with their three perfect leaves.
Two summers back, while waiting for an airport shuttle in Munich, I found a tiny four leaf clover in a traffic circle and put it into my passport. On the way home, my husband and I were upgraded to business class. Friends attributed our good luck to the clover. I think, it's more likely that we were upgraded because a kind customer service officer took pity on us.
People disagree about whether the luck lies in the finding or in the possession of a four leaf clover.Some believe that the luck is lost if the four leaf clover is even shown to somebody else, while others think the luck doubles if it is given away.I believe that positivity is increased by sharing.I feel lucky to find the clovers so often, but I don't think they influence my life any more than it does to share anything a little special－that momentary closeness between you and a friend or a stranger, as you all lean in to wonder at a rare find.
语篇解读：本文是一篇记叙文。作者从小到大一直喜欢收集四叶草，并能够比别人更容易地找出四叶草。作者相信分享会增加积极性，找到四叶草并和别人分享的那种亲密感才是重要的。
24．Why can the author notice four leaf clovers so easily
A．Because she always has good luck.
B．Because she has a special gift for plants.
C．Because she practised a lot in her childhood.
D．Because she can tell the pattern differences.
解析：选D 细节理解题。根据第四段中To me，it was simple.The differences in their shapes popped out, breaking the pretty pattern of the conventional clover with their three perfect leaves.可知，它们形状的差异会突显出来，打破了传统三叶草美丽的形状。所以作者能很容易找到四叶草是因为她能辨别三叶草和四叶草的形状的区别。
25．How does the author deal with her four leaf clovers
A．She often gives them away.
B．She leaves them everywhere.
C．She treats them with special love.
D．She admires them with her husband.
解析：选C 推理判断题。由第三段可以看出作者非常乐于收集四叶草；第五段中介绍了作者在机场看见一片小的四叶草也会夹在护照里；在作者眼中，四叶草是她的treasure并乐于向丈夫、朋友分享。由此可以判断出，作者对四叶草有着特别的爱。
26．How does the author understand luck and clovers
A．The closeness brought by clovers really counts.
B．Clovers will influence one's good luck a lot.
C．Good luck means finding or owning a clover.
D．Good luck may double if you give clovers away.
解析：选A 细节理解题。根据最后一段中的I don't think they influence my life any more than it does to share anything a little special — that momentary closeness between you and a friend or a stranger，as you all lean in to wonder at a rare find可以判断出，作者认为四叶草带来的亲密感才是重要的。
27．What may be the best title for the passage
A．Hunting Clovers
B．Sharing Clovers
C．Not just for Luck
D．Just for Luck
解析：选C 标题归纳题。作者通过自己的经历，旨在表达并不只是四叶草能带来幸运，找到四叶草并和别人分享的那种亲密才是最重要的。故C项(不只是运气)适合作文章标题。
C
Britain's first zero carbon homes are being built — and they look like something from a science fiction movie.
There are 25 eco friendly homes currently being built in Southmoor, near Abingdon, Oxon.Buyers are able to have the final say on floor layouts, kitchens and bathrooms.One three bedroom home is on the market for ￡801, 000, with a custom build available to suit your own specification.These eco friendly houses are powered entirely by electricity from solar panels around the houses. They also have advanced ventilation (通风) systems, making sure that temperatures inside the building don't go beyond 25℃ for more than 10% of hours annually, as well as mini heat pumps to generate (产生) the heating and hot water on site. Part of the cooling design includes avoiding east or west facing windows, and window shading.
And they're in high demand. Ian Pritchett, of Ssassy Property, thinks the Government should do more to promote the construction of this type of housing.“Unfortunately, the Government relaxed the proposed 2016 zero carbon targets after being lobbied (游说) by house builders，”Ian explained.“At present, the main house building corporations control the land and only build at the rate they are sure will sell, keeping the UK's housing shortage so that the normal rules of ‘supply and demand' don't apply.When there is a shortage of housing, buyers have to purchase what is available rather than what they might want.”
In any sensible society, we would expect the planning system to actively encourage zero carbon houses, and to tough on anyone failing to deliver the necessary standard.Instead, we have a planning system that focuses on other aspects such as numbers of bedrooms, garden sizes, and parking places.These are important aspects, but they pale into insignificance compared to the catastrophic consequences of climate change.
语篇解读：本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了英国首批零碳住宅的建设，涉及了零碳住宅的基本特点、供求情况等。
28．What can a purchaser do before buying the type of housing
A．Negotiate its price.
B．Choose where to build it.
C．Decide how the inside of it looks.
D．Design its ventilation system.
解析：选C 细节理解题。根据第二段中的Buyers are able to have the final say on floor layouts, kitchens and bathrooms.可知，买家可以决定这种房屋的内部布局。
29．How do people react to the zero carbon homes
A．They like them.
B．They are uncaring.
C．They are skeptical.
D．They are demanding.
解析：选A 细节理解题。根据第三段中的And they're in high demand可知，这种房子需求量很大，即人们很喜欢这类房子。
30．What do house building companies intend to do
A．Balance the “supply and demand” of houses.
B．Purchase more land to stop climate change.
C．Build more houses powered by the sun.
D．Make it more difficult to buy houses.
解析：选D 推理判断题。根据第三段内容可知，房地产公司让购房更为困难。
31．What's the author's attitude to the planning system
A．Satisfied. B．Disapproving.
C．Worried. D．Ambiguous.
解析：选B 观点态度题。最后一段作者谈到，在任何一个理性的社会，我们都希望房屋规划系统积极鼓励零碳住宅，并对任何未能达到必要标准的人采取严厉措施。相反，我们的规划系统却专注于其他方面，比如卧室数量、花园面积和停车位。这些都是重要的方面，但与气候变化的灾难性后果相比，它们就显得微不足道了。由此可知，作者对房屋规划系统持不认同的态度。
D
Tired of standing in line Wait a bit longer, and you may never have to again.Everyone from Amazon to Silicon Valley start ups is trying to eliminate lines in retail (零售) stores.
Amazon has opened 24 of its Amazon Go stores, which use cameras and artificial intelligence to see what you've taken off shelves and charge you as you walk out.Some start ups are closely copying Amazon's approach to using AI powered cameras fixed in ceilings.But others are trying an entirely different way to skip the checkout：smart shopping carts.These companies have added cameras and sensors (传感器) to the carts, and are using AI to tell what you've placed in them.A built in scale weighs items, in case you have to pay by the pound for an item.Customers pay by using a credit card, or through an online payment system.When customers exit the store, a green light on the shopping cart indicates that their orders are complete, and they're charged.
The start ups behind the smart shopping carts, including Caper and Veeve, say it's much easier to add technology to the shopping cart than to an entire store.Amazon Go stores rely on hundreds of cameras in the ceiling.The shelves also include sensors to tell when an item is removed.Ahmed Beshry, co founder of Caper, believes the technology to run Amazon Go is too expensive to use in a large grocery store.Neither Caper nor Veeve has said how much their smart shopping carts will cost，making it difficult to compare the different formats.Shariq Siddiqui, CEO of Veeve, said he's finding increased interest from retailers given Amazon's steady expansion of Amazon Go since the first Amazon Go store opened in Seattle in 2018.“We're always happy when Amazon is doing something，” Siddiqui said.“They force retailers to get out of their old school thinking.”
Each time a business uses artificial intelligence and cameras, it raises questions about customer privacy and the impact on jobs.Beshry notes that the cameras in his smart shopping cart point down into the cart, so only customers' hands and part of their arms will be captured (拍摄) by cameras.
语篇解读：本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了一款能够获取顾客购买的物品的信息，进而可以便利地完成结算的智能购物车的相关情况。
32．Which of the following best explains the underlined word “eliminate” in Paragraph 1
A．Cross. B．Remove.
C．Extend. D．Break.
解析：选B 词义猜测题。根据第一段前两句以及第二段Amazon Go的例子可以推测出，购物时人们对排队付款感到厌烦，因此从亚马孙公司到硅谷的新兴公司，都试图在零售商店里面将排队付款的情况消除。由此可知，画线词的含义与remove相近。
33．What do we know about the smart shopping carts
A．They are linked to the cameras fixed in the ceilings.
B．They can tell customers where to find what they want.
C．They flash the green light when the order is cancelled.
D．They are able to recognize purchases placed in them.
解析：选D 细节理解题。根据第二段第四句可知，这些公司在购物车上增加了摄像机和传感器，并使用人工智能来确切地判断出你往购物车里放的东西。由此可知，智能购物车能够辨别出放在其中的商品。
34．What does Beshry think of the technology applied in Amazon Go stores
A．It is far more expensive than their smart shopping carts.
B．It may increase the cost of running a large grocery store greatly.
C．It has attracted many more retailers than before.
D．It is likely to help retailers to think differently.
解析：选B 细节理解题。根据第三段第四句可知，Beshry认为，运行Amazon Go的技术成本太高，无法在大型食品杂货店使用。
35．What is the best title for the text
A．The New Technology Promotes Retail Sales
B．AI powered Cameras Are Used in Retail Stores
C．Smart Shopping Carts Will Let You Skip the Line
D．Artificial Intelligence Affects the Future Job Market
解析：选C 标题归纳题。本文主要介绍了一款能够获取顾客购买的物品的信息，进而可以便利地完成结算的智能购物车；它能让顾客免去排队付款这一令人厌烦的过程。由此可知，C项适合作文章标题。

Life in Death Valley
Death Valley is a huge place, extending more than 225 kilometers across the southern part of California into the neighbouring state of Nevada.As beautiful as this place is, its name provides evidence of very real danger.

In many areas of Death Valley, it is easy to see where the ground has been pushed up violently by movement deep in the Earth.This has created unusual and beautiful rock formations，with colors of red, brown, gray, yellow and black.In other parts of Death Valley, there are lines in the rock.The lines are evidence of the past presence of water.__38__
Much of Death Valley is flat and extremely dry.In some areas the ground is nothing but salt.However, it would be wrong to think that nothing lives in Death Valley.__39__Wildflowers grow very quickly after even a small amount of rain.Several kinds of birds live in Death Valley.Visitors might see the dog like animal called the coyote, or wild bighorn sheep, or other animals like the desert tortoise.
Throughout history, native Americans found ways to survive in Death Valley.Rock art and other remains show that humans lived in the valley as far back as 9,000 years ago.Nowadays, more than one million people visit it each year.__40__ The sun slowly turns the valley a gold color that deepens to a soft brown, then changes to a dark red.As night comes, the mountains turn a dark purple color, then black.
A．The valley is full of life.
B．The setting sun is visitors' favourite.
C．Images here seem to change each minute.
D．Death Valley is a place of strange and silent beauty.
E．Death Valley doesn't forgive those who are not careful.
F．Death Valley is a land of beautiful yet dangerous extremes.
G．The area was deep under an ocean for many thousands of years.

36．选F 空后说死亡谷有将近140万公顷的沙漠和海拔超过3,000米的山脉。冬季极冷，山里的暴风雨顷刻之间引发洪水；夏季的气温高达57℃，有人曾在这里热死。故F项(死亡谷是一个美丽但却危险的极端地区)能够引出下文，符合语境。
37．选E 空前说夏季，死亡谷的气温高达57℃；空后说死亡谷的酷热天气曾使人死亡。由此可知，进入死亡谷的人们，如果不小心可能会死在里面。故E项(死亡谷不饶恕那些不小心的人)承上启下，符合语境。
38．选G 空前说岩石上的线条是这里曾经有水的证据。故G项(这个地区几千年来一直位于海洋深处)承接上文，符合语境。
39．选A 空前说如果认为死亡谷里没有生命，那你就错了；空后提到了几种死亡谷里的生物。故A项(这个山谷充满了生机)承上启下，符合语境。
40．选C 空后说太阳慢慢地把山谷变成金黄色，然后颜色变深成为浅褐色，再变成深红色。夜晚来临时，山脉变成深紫色，再变成黑色。故C项(这里的景象好像每分钟都在变化)能够引出下文，符合语境。

阅读下面短文，在空白处填入1个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。
About 38 years ago, Jadav Payeng, an Indian teenager, began planting trees in a huge sandbar (沙洲) near his birthplace.With his hard work and great efforts, he has turned the sandbar __56__ a forest.
It was 1979，__57__ Payeng was only 16, and floods had washed a great number of snakes onto the sandbar.When Payeng found them, they had all died.“Because of the __58__(absent) of trees, the snakes died in __59__ heat.It was really __60__(pain), so I decided to grow bamboos and trees there，” said Payeng.
Over the years，Payeng __61__(plant) over 1,360 acres (英亩) of forest.The forest，__62__(name) after its creator, is believed to be the world's biggest forest in the middle of a sandbar.The once lifeless sandbar is now home to several thousands of __63__(variety) of trees and an amazing diversity of wildlife, including birds, deer, apes, elephants and even tigers.In 2015，Payeng __64__(honour) with Padma Shri, one of the top awards in India.
Today，Payeng still lives in the forest.He shares a small house with his wife and three children and makes a living by __65__(sell) cow and buffalo milk.
语篇解读：本文是一篇记叙文。印度曾经的一片沙洲如今却成了1，360英亩的森林，有着各种各样的植物和动物。这一切的转变，全靠一个人，他就是Jadav Payeng。
56．into turn ...into ...是固定搭配，意为“将……变成……”。故填into。
57．when 空处用关系副词引导非限制性定语从句，修饰先行词1979，故填when。
58．absence 空处所填单词在句中作because of的宾语，且前面有冠词，应用absent的名词形式，故填absence。
59．the 此处heat为不可数名词，in the heat意为“在炎热的天气中”，故填the。
60．painful 空处所填单词在句中作表语，根据句意可知，此处应用pain的形容词形式，故填painful。
61．has planted “over ＋ 一段时间”作状语时，句子谓语通常用现在完成时；主语Payeng是第三人称单数，故填has planted。
62．named 此处是分词短语作后置定语，修饰the forest, 又因为name与被修饰词之间是逻辑上的动宾关系，故填named。
63．varieties thousands of修饰名词时，被修饰名词需用复数形式；varieties of表示“各种各样的”，故填varieties。
64．was honoured 主语Payeng是谓语动词honour的承受者，故用被动语态；根据时间状语in 2015可知，应用一般过去时，故填was honoured。
65．selling 介词by后接动名词作宾语，故填selling

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。
A few years ago，I worked in an international company that sold computer devices.I had to travel a lot all over the country as a part of my work.I remember that I was at a stage of my life where I only cared about how to make more money.
On one of my trips，I came out of the airport to take a bus to downtown，as usual.It was the same routine: get into the city，take the bus to the hotel，visit the customer，work late，take the bus back to the airport and fly back ...
That day，for some reasons，I decided to take the stairs down to a different exit，where I came across a beautiful garden I had never seen before.I waited there，enjoying the scenery.Finally the bus came.
Usually I always took the seat behind the driver.That day I sat down somewhere in the middle.A boy was seated next to me，carrying a lot of suitcases.Suddenly，he turned to me and gave me one of the most sincere smiles I had ever seen from a stranger.Warmly，he said，“Hi，the perfect day in the perfect place，huh？”
I remember thinking to myself — this must be one of those typical people who is young and naive and just thinks everything is beautiful and easy.Why was he annoying me when I just wanted to enjoy the bus ride But out of politeness，I replied，“Perfect! Did your parents pay for you to have some vacations on the beach？”“No，I'm not here for vacation，and I don't have parents，” he shook his head.“I'm here because I want to achieve my biggest dream.I'm on the way to the army school where my grandfather studied a long time ago.”
注意：
1.续写词数应为150左右；
2．请按如下格式作答。
I lost my dad 10 years ago then my mom married again.
He smiled and told me that for 10 years，he had only one thing on his mind
参考范文：
“I lost my dad 10 years ago then my mom married again.My stepfather threw me out of the house.Since then，I've been living all over the country.I've met many people who were kind to me.And I've learnt a lot from life through these years，” he said softly.At that point I couldn't say a word.I felt the tears coming.Fortunately，he continued talking.
He smiled and told me that for 10 years，he had only one thing on his mind — to join the army school like his grandfather.“My grandfather was a general of the army.He left me this，” he said proudly.He showed me a golden knife and said this was the best memory of his childhood.“The only thing I know is that I will follow my biggest dream and every day I will be happy.” Soon，the bus reached his stop.He stood up，took all his suitcases，and said goodbye with a big smile.From that day on，I always try to do everything with my best smile on my face.

When I was in the third grade, we had a hunt at school.We gathered up chalk, pencils, stones, and so on, rapidly filling our checklists. It was a very close race.I was out of breath when I reached the clover (三叶草) patch in search of the last, most hard to find item：a four leaf clover.
I was pretty sure that I was going to win.I have always been able to find four leaf clovers. I just saw them.
I spent my childhood collecting and pressing four leaf clovers into books at my mother's house. I started with big cloth and leather bound books. When I ran out of romantically bound volumes, I began to put my treasures into anything I could find: fiction paperbacks and cookbooks. The same is true in my house today. Shake a book, and a papery treasure just might fall into your hand.
A few years ago, in Nova Scotia, my husband and I pulled off the road for a picnic.The ground was thick with clover. Some shoots had four, five, even six leaves. I lined them up on the picnic table to admire as my husband, never yet having found one four leaf clover, looked on in awe. To me, it was simple.The differences in their shapes popped out, breaking the pretty pattern of the conventional clover with their three perfect leaves.
Two summers back, while waiting for an airport shuttle in Munich, I found a tiny four leaf clover in a traffic circle and put it into my passport. On the way home, my husband and I were upgraded to business class. Friends attributed our good luck to the clover. I think, it's more likely that we were upgraded because a kind customer service officer took pity on us.
People disagree about whether the luck lies in the finding or in the possession of a four leaf clover.Some believe that the luck is lost if the four leaf clover is even shown to somebody else, while others think the luck doubles if it is given away.I believe that positivity is increased by sharing.I feel lucky to find the clovers so often, but I don't think they influence my life any more than it does to share anything a little special－that momentary closeness between you and a friend or a stranger, as you all lean in to wonder at a rare find.
24．Why can the author notice four leaf clovers so easily
A．Because she always has good luck.
B．Because she has a special gift for plants.
C．Because she practised a lot in her childhood.
D．Because she can tell the pattern differences.
25．How does the author deal with her four leaf clovers
A．She often gives them away.
B．She leaves them everywhere.
C．She treats them with special love.
D．She admires them with her husband.
26．How does the author understand luck and clovers
A．The closeness brought by clovers really counts.
B．Clovers will influence one's good luck a lot.
C．Good luck means finding or owning a clover.
D．Good luck may double if you give clovers away.
27．What may be the best title for the passage
A．Hunting Clovers
B．Sharing Clovers
C．Not just for Luck
D．Just for Luck
C
Britain's first zero carbon homes are being built — and they look like something from a science fiction movie.
There are 25 eco friendly homes currently being built in Southmoor, near Abingdon, Oxon.Buyers are able to have the final say on floor layouts, kitchens and bathrooms.One three bedroom home is on the market for ￡801, 000, with a custom build available to suit your own specification.These eco friendly houses are powered entirely by electricity from solar panels around the houses. They also have advanced ventilation (通风) systems, making sure that temperatures inside the building don't go beyond 25℃ for more than 10% of hours annually, as well as mini heat pumps to generate (产生) the heating and hot water on site. Part of the cooling design includes avoiding east or west facing windows, and window shading.
And they're in high demand. Ian Pritchett, of Ssassy Property, thinks the Government should do more to promote the construction of this type of housing.“Unfortunately, the Government relaxed the proposed 2016 zero carbon targets after being lobbied (游说) by house builders，”Ian explained.“At present, the main house building corporations control the land and only build at the rate they are sure will sell, keeping the UK's housing shortage so that the normal rules of ‘supply and demand' don't apply.When there is a shortage of housing, buyers have to purchase what is available rather than what they might want.”
In any sensible society, we would expect the planning system to actively encourage zero carbon houses, and to tough on anyone failing to deliver the necessary standard.Instead, we have a planning system that focuses on other aspects such as numbers of bedrooms, garden sizes, and parking places.These are important aspects, but they pale into insignificance compared to the catastrophic consequences of climate change.
28．What can a purchaser do before buying the type of housing
A．Negotiate its price.
B．Choose where to build it.
C．Decide how the inside of it looks.
D．Design its ventilation system.
29．How do people react to the zero carbon homes
A．They like them.
B．They are uncaring.
C．They are skeptical.
D．They are demanding.
30．What do house building companies intend to do
A．Balance the “supply and demand” of houses.
B．Purchase more land to stop climate change.
C．Build more houses powered by the sun.
D．Make it more difficult to buy houses.
31．What's the author's attitude to the planning system
A．Satisfied. B．Disapproving.
C．Worried. D．Ambiguous.
D
Tired of standing in line Wait a bit longer, and you may never have to again.Everyone from Amazon to Silicon Valley start ups is trying to eliminate lines in retail (零售) stores.
Amazon has opened 24 of its Amazon Go stores, which use cameras and artificial intelligence to see what you've taken off shelves and charge you as you walk out.Some start ups are closely copying Amazon's approach to using AI powered cameras fixed in ceilings.But others are trying an entirely different way to skip the checkout：smart shopping carts.These companies have added cameras and sensors (传感器) to the carts, and are using AI to tell what you've placed in them.A built in scale weighs items, in case you have to pay by the pound for an item.Customers pay by using a credit card, or through an online payment system.When customers exit the store, a green light on the shopping cart indicates that their orders are complete, and they're charged.
The start ups behind the smart shopping carts, including Caper and Veeve, say it's much easier to add technology to the shopping cart than to an entire store.Amazon Go stores rely on hundreds of cameras in the ceiling.The shelves also include sensors to tell when an item is removed.Ahmed Beshry, co founder of Caper, believes the technology to run Amazon Go is too expensive to use in a large grocery store.Neither Caper nor Veeve has said how much their smart shopping carts will cost，making it difficult to compare the different formats.Shariq Siddiqui, CEO of Veeve, said he's finding increased interest from retailers given Amazon's steady expansion of Amazon Go since the first Amazon Go store opened in Seattle in 2018.“We're always happy when Amazon is doing something，” Siddiqui said.“They force retailers to get out of their old school thinking.”
Each time a business uses artificial intelligence and cameras, it raises questions about customer privacy and the impact on jobs.Beshry notes that the cameras in his smart shopping cart point down into the cart, so only customers' hands and part of their arms will be captured (拍摄) by cameras.
32．Which of the following best explains the underlined word “eliminate” in Paragraph 1
A．Cross. B．Remove.
C．Extend. D．Break.
33．What do we know about the smart shopping carts
A．They are linked to the cameras fixed in the ceilings.
B．They can tell customers where to find what they want.
C．They flash the green light when the order is cancelled.
D．They are able to recognize purchases placed in them.
34．What does Beshry think of the technology applied in Amazon Go stores
A．It is far more expensive than their smart shopping carts.
B．It may increase the cost of running a large grocery store greatly.
C．It has attracted many more retailers than before.
D．It is likely to help retailers to think differently.
35．What is the best title for the text
A．The New Technology Promotes Retail Sales
B．AI powered Cameras Are Used in Retail Stores
C．Smart Shopping Carts Will Let You Skip the Line
D．Artificial Intelligence Affects the Future Job Market

A few years ago，I worked in an international company that sold computer devices.I had to travel a lot all over the country as a part of my work.I remember that I was at a stage of my life where I only cared about how to make more money.
On one of my trips，I came out of the airport to take a bus to downtown，as usual.It was the same routine: get into the city，take the bus to the hotel，visit the customer，work late，take the bus back to the airport and fly back ...
That day，for some reasons，I decided to take the stairs down to a different exit，where I came across a beautiful garden I had never seen before.I waited there，enjoying the scenery.Finally the bus came.
Usually I always took the seat behind the driver.That day I sat down somewhere in the middle.A boy was seated next to me，carrying a lot of suitcases.Suddenly，he turned to me and gave me one of the most sincere smiles I had ever seen from a stranger.Warmly，he said，“Hi，the perfect day in the perfect place，huh？”
I remember thinking to myself — this must be one of those typical people who is young and naive and just thinks everything is beautiful and easy.Why was he annoying me when I just wanted to enjoy the bus ride But out of politeness，I replied，“Perfect! Did your parents pay for you to have some vacations on the beach？”“No，I'm not here for vacation，and I don't have parents，” he shook his head.“I'm here because I want to achieve my biggest dream.I'm on the way to the army school where my grandfather studied a long time ago.”
