Last year Justin met a great difficulty in his life: Where should he work after graduation He had two great offers. The first was a government job in his hometown, a 10-minute bike ride from his apartment. It wouldn't pay much, but he'd have time to spend with his wife, nephew, and aging parents. The second was a job in the biggest neighboring city. It would pay a lot more, but he'd have to travel four hours a day.
We know surprisingly little about how people do when they make more money at the expense of having less time or have more time at the expense of earning less money. My colleagues-PhD student Lucia Macchia, Professor Elizabeth Dunn and I set out to do a study. We asked more than 1,000 college students. What we found was that students who prioritized time were happier than those who prioritized money. Those who valued time were happier and more satisfied with their lives and careers one to two years after graduation.
People who live in more unequal areas feel less financially secure and are more likely to value money. People who grew up in families fighting about money also are more likely to focus on money instead of time as adults, even if they now have a lot of money. Of course, debt also plays a role.
Sometimes we cannot choose our priorities; we might need to choose the better-paying job and sacrifice (牺牲) having more time to socialize with our friends and family. Society needs to work harder to make us all feel like we have the choice to prioritize time over money. However, when we do have the ability to choose which resource to prioritize, the data is clear: Valuing time is likely to bring us greater joy both in the moment and in the long term.
4. What can we know about Justin from paragraph 1
A. He tried hard to find a well-paid job.
B. He was unwilling to leave his family.
C. He had to make a great decision in life.
D. He had trouble in graduating from college.
5. Which of the following can explain the underlined word "prioritized" in paragraph 2
A. Took...further. B. Put...first.
C. Spent...wisely. D. Saved...gradually.
6. What plays a role in people's valuing money over time
A. Their family backgrounds.
B. Their educational experiences.
C. Their parents attitude towards them.
D. Their relationship with people in their area.
7. What is the author's purpose of writing the last paragraph
A. To conduct a survey. B. To make a prediction.
C. To offer a choice. D. To draw a conclusion.
C
California researchers developed a glove with electronic sensors that can translate American Sign Language (ASL) into English in real time through an app on your smartphone.
Previous systems that offered translation from ASI were limited by heavy designs or were uncomfortable to wear. Unlike previous systems, the new one is light, inexpensive and long-lasting, said Chen Jun, an assistant professor of bioengineering at the UCLA Samueli School of Engineering and the main researcher on the research.
"Our hope is that this opens up an easy way for people who use sign language to communicate directly with non-signers without needing someone else to translate for them, "said Chen. The team worked with four people who are deaf and use ASL and had them repeat gestures up to 15 times while wearing the glove-like device, at the same time teaching a machine how to recognize them. The researchers also added sensors to testers' faces-in between their eyebrows and on one side of their mouths — to recognize facial expressions that are a part of ASL.
The system has thin sensors made from electrically conductive materials that run up each finger and turn the movements into signals. These signals are sent to a dollar-coin-sized circuit board placed on the person's wrist, which then moves them over to a smartphone.
The system was able to recognize 660 hand movements and finger placements that stand for each letter in English, different phrases and each number. The system recognized the correct signs about 99% of the time, and in less than one second. However, researchers said the glove would need to learn more vocabulary and be able to translate signs faster in order to be sold in stores.
8. How is the new system different from the previous ones according to Chen
A. It is less heavy. B. It is wearable.
C. It has a beautiful design. D. It can translate more phrases.
9. Who is more likely to use the new system
A. A deaf person who is reading an English novel.
B. A Chinese student who is learning spoken English.
C. A deaf girl who is chatting with non-signers using ASL.
D. A non-English-speaker who is talking with English natives.
10. What is paragraph 4 mainly about
A. How the system works. B. How reliable the system is.
C. What benefits the system has. D. What the system is made up of.
11. What will researchers need to do with the system in the future
A. Reduce its price. B. Change its appearance.
C. Extend its service life. D. Improve its performance.
D
The International Space Station (ISS) was just three small rooms when the first crew moved in. The crew members soon discovered there was hardly any space for them to move around. The air was warm and humid, making them feel sticky (感到热得难受的).
Twenty years later, the space station is almost as large as a football field and has three modern laboratories. The station has enough solar power equipment to fill almost four-tenths of a hectare, and enough electrical wiring to stretch 13 kilometers.
The first crew-American Bill Shepherd and Russians Sergei Krikalev and Yuri Gidzenko - left Earth on October 31, 2000. About 48 hours later, they opened the doors to the space station, holding hands in a sign of unity.
The three-man crew spent most of their time trying to get the equipment to work; heat from some of the devices made the living space too warm. Installing (安装) machines and making repairs took hours, compared to minutes on the ground, Krikalev remembered. "Each day seemed to have its own set of challenges," Shepherd said.
The space station did not come close to hitting any space objects during their nearly five months up there, Shepherd said, and the station has held up relatively well. Today NASA's top concern is the growing threat from space junk. This year, the space station has had to avoid objects three times. NASA and its partners say the space station easily has several years of usefulness left. Russia's Mir station operated for 15 years in the late 1980s and 1990s. America's 1970s Skylab spent much less time in space.
Shepherd said that the past 20 years of international experience and cooperation can help with enormous projects, like possibly sending humans to the planet Mars. "If you look at the space station program today, it's a blueprint on how to do it," Shepherd said.
12. Which of the following can best describe the ISS twenty years ago
A. Small but highly used. B. Large but impractical.
C. Wet and a little cold. D. Crowded and uncomfortable.
13. What did the first crew mainly do at the ISS
A. They operated the devices. B. They cleaned space junk.
C. They enlarged the space. D. They repaired the equipment.
14. What does NASA worry most about the ISS today
A. There being more equipment failure.
B. There being doubts about its usefulness.
C. The risk of being struck by other objects.
D. The changes of the orbit three times a year.
15. What can be the best title for the text
A. The contribution of the ISS
B. The development of the ISS
C. The problems troubling the ISS
D. The uncertain future awaiting the ISS
二、阅读七选五（本大题共5小题，共10.0分）
Mr. Garcia, a businessman from Madrid, Spain, is speaking English to one of his customers, Mr. Patton, from Vancouver, Canada. Mr. Garcia slowly approaches Mr. Patton. (1) This slow dance continues throughout the conversation until Mr. Patton is against the wall.
What is going on here Probably a misunderstanding in body language. Body language is one kind of nonverbal communication which plays a key role in communication. (2) For example, in the above case, Spanish speakers enjoy a much closer speaking distance than English speakers.
Another example is eye contact. In many American Indian and East Asian cultures, respect is shown by not looking directly into the eyes. (3) Because anything less than full eye contact is considered disrespectful or even devious (不诚实的) in their culture.
Sometimes gestures used in different languages have opposite meanings. (4) In Vietnam and China, the gesture for "come here" is quite similar to that of waving "good-bye" in English. Thus, when speakers of these two cultures are leaving each other, fun things may happen.
(5) The best way to learn gestures for any language or culture is to stay a while in a foreign country to learn not only what people say but how they say it.
A. The latter slowly steps away.
B. Body language is very important.
C. This can produce a humorous effect.
D. But it is not the same in all cultures.
E. Mr. Patton walks slowly in the room.
F. For Western Europeans, the opposite is true.
G. Learning body gestures is rather difficult from textbooks.
16. A. A B. B C. C D. D E. E F. F G. G
17. A. A B. B C. C D. D E. E F. F G. G

19. A. A B. B C. C D. D E. E F. F G. G
20. A. A B. B C. C D. D E. E F. F G. G

五、任务型读写（本大题共1小题，共25.0分）
37. 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。续写的词数应为150左右。
When I was seven, I found a watch while walking down the hallway of my school. The watch was expensive-looking, set with gold. As I picked it up, greed (贪婪) suddenly came over me, and instead of turning it in to the office like I should have, I became the owner of the watch.
When I got home from school, I found Mom cooking dinner in the kitchen. Thinking that she would be impressed, I held out my prize for her to see with a feeling of excitement and pride. Mom, however, was far from impressed. Instead, she was angry at her son for keeping the watch instead of turning it in. Mom then ordered me to go straight back to school and take the watch to someone at the office. I started to argue, but after taking a good look at the expression on Mom's face, I realized that would get me nowhere. There was nothing left for me to do but obey.
I have to admit, I was rather angry with Mom for making me give up the watch. I felt that it was justly mine since I was the one who had found it. Yes, I knew she was right, but greed had forced me to keep the watch, and now pride wouldn't allow me to admit that I had done something wrong. But time passed, and I forgot all about the lesson that I learned from the watch until fourteen years later.
While I was attending college, I had managed to get a job at a Walmart pushing carts off the parking lot. One morning, I found a checkbook (支票簿) that had been left in a shopping cart. Quickly, I took it to the customer service desk and gave it to the employee there so that the customer who had lost it could pick it up.

Later, as I was outside pushing carts, a man came up to me.

2. 空前的which引导非限制性定语从句，指代body language并在从句中作主语。故从句谓语动词应用单数形式，且此处陈述客观的情况，故用一般现在时。故填varies。
3. 介词to后使用名词作宾语，且stranger为可数名词，空前没有限定词，此处应用名词复数形式。故填strangers。
4. 此处it是形式主语，真正的主语是动词不定式，故填to relax。
5. way意为“方法，方式”，后接动词不定式或者of doing sth.作定语。故填greeting。
6. 空处应用副词，修饰整个句子。故填Traditionally。
7. shake hands with sb./shake sb. by the hand意为“和某人握手”，是固定用法。故填by。
8. 空处引导非限制性定语从句，且指代前面的整个句子，故填which。
9. 根据空后的Give me five!可知，此处表示特指，故用定冠词the。故填the。
10. 根据句意可知，空处前后为因果关系，故填so，表示结果。故填so。
37.【答案】 Later, as I was outside pushing carts, a man came up to me. He told me his wife had left their checkbook in a shopping cart the night before, and he wondered if it had been found. When he told me his name, I realized that he was the owner of the checkbook I had found. I explained to him that I had found his checkbook that morning, and that he could go inside and get it at the service desk. The man was so thankful that he pulled out his wallet and offered me some cash, but I refused.
Then my thoughts went back to the day when Mom had made me return the watch. Mom wanted to make sure that her son would always be honest, and never take what didn't belong to him. Because of her, I did the right thing when I found that checkbook, and I was rewarded with a feeling of self-worth that no amount of money could buy. I have come to realize that while we are growing up, some valuable lessons are often the ones that we don't appreciate until later in life.
【解析】一、文意梳理
【原文大意】
本文是记叙文。文章讲述了作者7岁那年在上学路上捡到一只镶有金边手表，想据为己有，但她母亲坚持要他把手表归还失主，这件事情慢慢被淡忘，多年后，已经在大学就读的作者在沃尔玛兼职，他在购物车上捡到一张支票，并毫不犹豫地交到了服务台并归还给了失主，这件事让作者又回忆起当年的事情，理解了母亲的用心，并意识到在我们成长的过程中，有些宝贵的教训往往要到晚些时候才能真正理解。

Last year Justin met a great difficulty in his life: Where should he work after graduation He had two great offers. The first was a government job in his hometown, a 10-minute bike ride from his apartment. It wouldn't pay much, but he'd have time to spend with his wife, nephew, and aging parents. The second was a job in the biggest neighboring city. It would pay a lot more, but he'd have to travel four hours a day.
We know surprisingly little about how people do when they make more money at the expense of having less time or have more time at the expense of earning less money. My colleagues-PhD student Lucia Macchia, Professor Elizabeth Dunn and I set out to do a study. We asked more than 1,000 college students. What we found was that students who prioritized time were happier than those who prioritized money. Those who valued time were happier and more satisfied with their lives and careers one to two years after graduation.
People who live in more unequal areas feel less financially secure and are more likely to value money. People who grew up in families fighting about money also are more likely to focus on money instead of time as adults, even if they now have a lot of money. Of course, debt also plays a role.
Sometimes we cannot choose our priorities; we might need to choose the better-paying job and sacrifice (牺牲) having more time to socialize with our friends and family. Society needs to work harder to make us all feel like we have the choice to prioritize time over money. However, when we do have the ability to choose which resource to prioritize, the data is clear: Valuing time is likely to bring us greater joy both in the moment and in the long term.
4. What can we know about Justin from paragraph 1
A. He tried hard to find a well-paid job.
B. He was unwilling to leave his family.
C. He had to make a great decision in life.
D. He had trouble in graduating from college.
5. Which of the following can explain the underlined word "prioritized" in paragraph 2
A. Took...further. B. Put...first.
C. Spent...wisely. D. Saved...gradually.
6. What plays a role in people's valuing money over time
A. Their family backgrounds.
B. Their educational experiences.
C. Their parents attitude towards them.
D. Their relationship with people in their area.
7. What is the author's purpose of writing the last paragraph
A. To conduct a survey. B. To make a prediction.
C. To offer a choice. D. To draw a conclusion.
C
California researchers developed a glove with electronic sensors that can translate American Sign Language (ASL) into English in real time through an app on your smartphone.
Previous systems that offered translation from ASI were limited by heavy designs or were uncomfortable to wear. Unlike previous systems, the new one is light, inexpensive and long-lasting, said Chen Jun, an assistant professor of bioengineering at the UCLA Samueli School of Engineering and the main researcher on the research.
"Our hope is that this opens up an easy way for people who use sign language to communicate directly with non-signers without needing someone else to translate for them, "said Chen. The team worked with four people who are deaf and use ASL and had them repeat gestures up to 15 times while wearing the glove-like device, at the same time teaching a machine how to recognize them. The researchers also added sensors to testers' faces-in between their eyebrows and on one side of their mouths — to recognize facial expressions that are a part of ASL.
The system has thin sensors made from electrically conductive materials that run up each finger and turn the movements into signals. These signals are sent to a dollar-coin-sized circuit board placed on the person's wrist, which then moves them over to a smartphone.
The system was able to recognize 660 hand movements and finger placements that stand for each letter in English, different phrases and each number. The system recognized the correct signs about 99% of the time, and in less than one second. However, researchers said the glove would need to learn more vocabulary and be able to translate signs faster in order to be sold in stores.
8. How is the new system different from the previous ones according to Chen
A. It is less heavy. B. It is wearable.
C. It has a beautiful design. D. It can translate more phrases.
9. Who is more likely to use the new system
A. A deaf person who is reading an English novel.
B. A Chinese student who is learning spoken English.
C. A deaf girl who is chatting with non-signers using ASL.
D. A non-English-speaker who is talking with English natives.
10. What is paragraph 4 mainly about
A. How the system works. B. How reliable the system is.
C. What benefits the system has. D. What the system is made up of.
11. What will researchers need to do with the system in the future
A. Reduce its price. B. Change its appearance.
C. Extend its service life. D. Improve its performance.

The International Space Station (ISS) was just three small rooms when the first crew moved in. The crew members soon discovered there was hardly any space for them to move around. The air was warm and humid, making them feel sticky (感到热得难受的).
Twenty years later, the space station is almost as large as a football field and has three modern laboratories. The station has enough solar power equipment to fill almost four-tenths of a hectare, and enough electrical wiring to stretch 13 kilometers.
The first crew-American Bill Shepherd and Russians Sergei Krikalev and Yuri Gidzenko - left Earth on October 31, 2000. About 48 hours later, they opened the doors to the space station, holding hands in a sign of unity.
The three-man crew spent most of their time trying to get the equipment to work; heat from some of the devices made the living space too warm. Installing (安装) machines and making repairs took hours, compared to minutes on the ground, Krikalev remembered. "Each day seemed to have its own set of challenges," Shepherd said.
The space station did not come close to hitting any space objects during their nearly five months up there, Shepherd said, and the station has held up relatively well. Today NASA's top concern is the growing threat from space junk. This year, the space station has had to avoid objects three times. NASA and its partners say the space station easily has several years of usefulness left. Russia's Mir station operated for 15 years in the late 1980s and 1990s. America's 1970s Skylab spent much less time in space.
Shepherd said that the past 20 years of international experience and cooperation can help with enormous projects, like possibly sending humans to the planet Mars. "If you look at the space station program today, it's a blueprint on how to do it," Shepherd said.
12. Which of the following can best describe the ISS twenty years ago
A. Small but highly used. B. Large but impractical.
C. Wet and a little cold. D. Crowded and uncomfortable.
13. What did the first crew mainly do at the ISS
A. They operated the devices. B. They cleaned space junk.
C. They enlarged the space. D. They repaired the equipment.
14. What does NASA worry most about the ISS today
A. There being more equipment failure.
B. There being doubts about its usefulness.
C. The risk of being struck by other objects.
D. The changes of the orbit three times a year.
15. What can be the best title for the text
A. The contribution of the ISS
B. The development of the ISS
C. The problems troubling the ISS
D. The uncertain future awaiting the ISS
二、阅读七选五（本大题共5小题，共10.0分）

What is going on here Probably a misunderstanding in body language. Body language is one kind of nonverbal communication which plays a key role in communication. (2) For example, in the above case, Spanish speakers enjoy a much closer speaking distance than English speakers.
Another example is eye contact. In many American Indian and East Asian cultures, respect is shown by not looking directly into the eyes. (3) Because anything less than full eye contact is considered disrespectful or even devious (不诚实的) in their culture.
Sometimes gestures used in different languages have opposite meanings. (4) In Vietnam and China, the gesture for "come here" is quite similar to that of waving "good-bye" in English. Thus, when speakers of these two cultures are leaving each other, fun things may happen.
(5) The best way to learn gestures for any language or culture is to stay a while in a foreign country to learn not only what people say but how they say it.
A. The latter slowly steps away.
B. Body language is very important.
C. This can produce a humorous effect.
D. But it is not the same in all cultures.

37. 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。续写的词数应为150左右。
When I was seven, I found a watch while walking down the hallway of my school. The watch was expensive-looking, set with gold. As I picked it up, greed (贪婪) suddenly came over me, and instead of turning it in to the office like I should have, I became the owner of the watch.
When I got home from school, I found Mom cooking dinner in the kitchen. Thinking that she would be impressed, I held out my prize for her to see with a feeling of excitement and pride. Mom, however, was far from impressed. Instead, she was angry at her son for keeping the watch instead of turning it in. Mom then ordered me to go straight back to school and take the watch to someone at the office. I started to argue, but after taking a good look at the expression on Mom's face, I realized that would get me nowhere. There was nothing left for me to do but obey.
I have to admit, I was rather angry with Mom for making me give up the watch. I felt that it was justly mine since I was the one who had found it. Yes, I knew she was right, but greed had forced me to keep the watch, and now pride wouldn't allow me to admit that I had done something wrong. But time passed, and I forgot all about the lesson that I learned from the watch until fourteen years later.
While I was attending college, I had managed to get a job at a Walmart pushing carts off the parking lot. One morning, I found a checkbook (支票簿) that had been left in a shopping cart. Quickly, I took it to the customer service desk and gave it to the employee there so that the customer who had lost it could pick it up.

【解析】1. 句意：但我们不仅用口语和书面语进行交流，还用肢体语言进行交流。written意为“书面的”。故填written。
2. 空前的which引导非限制性定语从句，指代body language并在从句中作主语。故从句谓语动词应用单数形式，且此处陈述客观的情况，故用一般现在时。故填varies。
3. 介词to后使用名词作宾语，且stranger为可数名词，空前没有限定词，此处应用名词复数形式。故填strangers。
4. 此处it是形式主语，真正的主语是动词不定式，故填to relax。
5. way意为“方法，方式”，后接动词不定式或者of doing sth.作定语。故填greeting。
6. 空处应用副词，修饰整个句子。故填Traditionally。
7. shake hands with sb./shake sb. by the hand意为“和某人握手”，是固定用法。故填by。
8. 空处引导非限制性定语从句，且指代前面的整个句子，故填which。
9. 根据空后的Give me five!可知，此处表示特指，故用定冠词the。故填the。
10. 根据句意可知，空处前后为因果关系，故填so，表示结果。故填so。
37.【答案】 Later, as I was outside pushing carts, a man came up to me. He told me his wife had left their checkbook in a shopping cart the night before, and he wondered if it had been found. When he told me his name, I realized that he was the owner of the checkbook I had found. I explained to him that I had found his checkbook that morning, and that he could go inside and get it at the service desk. The man was so thankful that he pulled out his wallet and offered me some cash, but I refused.
Then my thoughts went back to the day when Mom had made me return the watch. Mom wanted to make sure that her son would always be honest, and never take what didn't belong to him. Because of her, I did the right thing when I found that checkbook, and I was rewarded with a feeling of self-worth that no amount of money could buy. I have come to realize that while we are growing up, some valuable lessons are often the ones that we don't appreciate until later in life.
【解析】一、文意梳理
【原文大意】
本文是记叙文。文章讲述了作者7岁那年在上学路上捡到一只镶有金边手表，想据为己有，但她母亲坚持要他把手表归还失主，这件事情慢慢被淡忘，多年后，已经在大学就读的作者在沃尔玛兼职，他在购物车上捡到一张支票，并毫不犹豫地交到了服务台并归还给了失主，这件事让作者又回忆起当年的事情，理解了母亲的用心，并意识到在我们成长的过程中，有些宝贵的教训往往要到晚些时候才能真正理解。
【段落续写】
①由第一段首句内容“后来，当我在外面推着车时，一个男人向我走来”可知，第一段可描写失主前来寻找丢失支票。
