Many young people would like to make a booth(货摊)to do business on the street in the name of entrepreneurship (创业精神)and sell lemons. It might seem like an easy sell—kids offering cool drinks. Some entrepreneurs offer their tips on how to make money from this.
Joe Mansueto, founder of the investment company Momingstar, sold lemonade (柠檬汽水)as a kid. "You should always pay attention to customers," he said. "When somebody's walking down the street, get out from behind the booth, greet them, talk to them and just make friends with them to attract more customers."
However, his two sons decided to sell a different drink. When they were 8 and 10, his boys sold cocoa outside their home. "The great thing about business is that there are really no rules. You can be creative and try something different," said Mansueto.
But it wasn't enough for US representative Mike Quigley and his older brother to sell drinks. They sold old books at the booth and would rent them out for customers to read while they enjoyed their drinks.
Adam Ochstein, founder of StratEx Partners, a human resources service company, gave frequent visitors cards which were printed with a lemon. Every five drinks, customers got one card which allowed them to pay less than half of the next drink. However, they didn't price(给……定价)the drinks. "If you want to give nothing, give nothing. If you want to give $ 2, give $2.1 think we had let the adults give more money than they probably would like to." Today, he suggests kids use social media for marketing. He said, "It can tell people where the booth is going to be and what unique specials you're running."
1.What is Paragraph 2 mainly about
A.How to set up a big company. B.How to attract more customers.
C.How to make friends with others. D.How to tell apart rich customers.
2.How did Mike Quigley make his booth different from the others
A.By selling cocoa outside their home. B.By renting used books to the customers.
C.By making friends with his customers. D.By lending new books to his customers.
3.What advice about the booth does Ochstein give to kids
A.Giving visitors free drinks. B.Giving visitors cards with a lemon.
C.Taking advantage of social media. D.Allowing customers to pay less money.
4.What is the best title for the text

Languages have been coming and going for thousands of years, but in recent times there has been less coming and a lot more going. When the world was still populated by hunter-gatherers, small, tightly knit(联系) groups developed their own patterns of speech independent of each other. Some language experts believe that 10, 000 years ago, when the world had just five to ten million people, they spoke perhaps 12,000 languages between them.
Soon afterwards, many of those people started settling down to become farmers, and their languages too became more settled and fewer in number. In recent centuries, trade, industrialisation, the development of the nation-state and the spread of universal compulsory education, especially globalisation and better communications in the past few decades, all have caused many languages to disappear, and dominant languages such as English, Spanish and Chinese are increasingly taking over.
At present, the world has about 6, 800 languages. The distribution of these languages is hugely uneven. The general rule is that mild zones have relatively few languages, often spoken by many people, while hot, wet zones have lots, often spoken by small numbers. Europe has only around 200 languages; the Americas about 1,000; Africa 2,400; and Asia and the Pacific perhaps 3,200, of which Papua New Guinea alone accounts for well over 800. The median number(中位数) of speakers is a mere 6,000, which means that half the world's languages are spoken by fewer people than that.
Already well over 400 of the total of 6, 800 languages are close to extinction(消亡), with only a few elderly speakers left. Pick, at random, Busuu in Cameroon (eight remaining speakers), Chiapaneco in Mexico (150), Lipan Apache in the United States (two or three) or Wadjigu in Australia (one, with a question-mark): none of these seems to have much chance of survival.
1. What can we infer about languages in hunter-gatherer times
A. They developed very fast. B. They were large in number.
C. They had similar patterns D. They were closely connected.
2. Which of the following best explains "dominant" underlined in Paragraph 2
A. Complex B. Advanced. C. Powerful D. Modern.
3. How many languages are spoken by less than 6,000 people at present
A. About 6,800 B. About 3,400 C. About 2,400 D. About 1,200
4. What is the main idea of the text
A. New languages will be created.
B. People's lifestyles are reflected in languages.
C. Human development results in fewer languages.
D. Geography determines language evolution.
D
People who give, live longer, studies have shown. Now, a new study by University of Michigan researchers shows that why people volunteer—not whether they volunteer—is what really counts.
For the study, Konrath and colleagues analyzed data collected in 2008 and 2012 aiming at the same random samples of 3,376 people. Overall, they found that just 2.3 percent of those who once worked as volunteers had died, compared to 4.3 percent of non-volunteers. They further found that how much people volunteered mattered as well—only 1.8 percent of regular volunteers died, compared with 2.5 percent of occasional volunteers.
But what really made a difference were people's motives for volunteering. The researchers asked people to rate how important they found various reasons for volunteering, and they found that the more important people rated reasons such as feeling pity for people in need, the more likely they were to be alive. Those who rated motives related to personal benefit as more important were more likely to have died, and just as likely to die as those who didn't volunteer at all. These reasons included volunteering because they enjoyed the social contact, to escape their own problems, or to explore their own strengths.
Konrath says the current findings suggest it may be a poor idea to encourage people to volunteer because it's good for them. "Volunteering is increasingly being encouraged in schools and organizations. Some groups say that it's okay to want benefits for yourself, and encourage people to think of volunteering as an exchange for personal interests. Some groups emphasize the health benefits received through volunteering." Konrath added, "Of course, it's reasonable for volunteers to expect benefits for themselves. But the potential health benefits of volunteering are significantly reduced if self-benefit becomes a person's main motive."
1.What does the new study mainly find
A. Whether we volunteer decides our well-being.
B. Why we volunteer has an impact on our health.
C. How we volunteer makes sense to others.
D. How often we volunteer makes a difference.
2.How did the researchers do the research
A. By analyzing statistics. B. By reviewing previous studies.
C. By doing lab experiments. D. By observing random samples.
3.Which of the following motives will probably benefit the volunteers most
A. Making more friends. B. Developing ability in practice.
C. Solving personal problems. D. Helping people in trouble.
4.What is the last paragraph mainly about
A. Practical suggestions on further studies.
B. Potential applications of the research method.
C.A further explanation of the current findings.
D.A reasonable doubt about the research findings.

Their life was totally surrounded by nature and beauty.

However, there was hardly any chance for Carol's family to move to the city as they had everything in the village.
One day, Carol fell asleep during the early noon and she had a sound sleep. Of course, she had a strange dream. She saw her grandmother in her dream as a fairy and her deceased grandmother granted her a wish. Carol requested her that she should love to enjoy the city life as she always desired.
Grandmother understood the desire of Carol, but still wanted to convince her that the peaceful village life was better than the city life.
She told Carol, "Baby, you cannot have access to fresh fruits and vegetables from plants as you have at your home. You cannot breathe fresh air. You cannot play with animals. You can hardly find any trees. You will not find peace as you see here! Do you still want to go to the city "
Without hearing the concerns, Carol asked her grandmother to grant the wish. Grandmother granted her the wish, but with a condition. Carol was told that she would only have 6 hours to spend in the city. Later, she would return to the village. Carol agreed.

第二节
答案：
Carol then found herself in the city with her friends. Carol and her friends went to watch movies. After that they ate delicious food in a restaurant and shopped in a huge mall. Carol was happy that she had the chance to experience the life in the city. Yet at the same time, she understood that everything told by her grandmother was true in the city. There was no peace and no silence; the city life was fast and rushing. The air quality was not satisfying. She could hardly find any animal or even a tree.
Carols brother Rob was calling her for lunch and Carol woke up. She recalled what happened just now in her dream and realized that her life in the village with her family was far more wonderful than the city life. Carol understood that she was having a more joyful life. She shared her dream with her family while enjoying the fresh fruits and vegetables, and they laughed together. Carol also developed love for plants, animals and beautiful nature.

Many young people would like to make a booth(货摊)to do business on the street in the name of entrepreneurship (创业精神)and sell lemons. It might seem like an easy sell—kids offering cool drinks. Some entrepreneurs offer their tips on how to make money from this.
Joe Mansueto, founder of the investment company Momingstar, sold lemonade (柠檬汽水)as a kid. "You should always pay attention to customers," he said. "When somebody's walking down the street, get out from behind the booth, greet them, talk to them and just make friends with them to attract more customers."
However, his two sons decided to sell a different drink. When they were 8 and 10, his boys sold cocoa outside their home. "The great thing about business is that there are really no rules. You can be creative and try something different," said Mansueto.
But it wasn't enough for US representative Mike Quigley and his older brother to sell drinks. They sold old books at the booth and would rent them out for customers to read while they enjoyed their drinks.
Adam Ochstein, founder of StratEx Partners, a human resources service company, gave frequent visitors cards which were printed with a lemon. Every five drinks, customers got one card which allowed them to pay less than half of the next drink. However, they didn't price(给……定价)the drinks. "If you want to give nothing, give nothing. If you want to give $ 2, give $2.1 think we had let the adults give more money than they probably would like to." Today, he suggests kids use social media for marketing. He said, "It can tell people where the booth is going to be and what unique specials you're running."
1.What is Paragraph 2 mainly about
A.How to set up a big company. B.How to attract more customers.
C.How to make friends with others. D.How to tell apart rich customers.
2.How did Mike Quigley make his booth different from the others
A.By selling cocoa outside their home. B.By renting used books to the customers.
C.By making friends with his customers. D.By lending new books to his customers.

Languages have been coming and going for thousands of years, but in recent times there has been less coming and a lot more going. When the world was still populated by hunter-gatherers, small, tightly knit(联系) groups developed their own patterns of speech independent of each other. Some language experts believe that 10, 000 years ago, when the world had just five to ten million people, they spoke perhaps 12,000 languages between them.
Soon afterwards, many of those people started settling down to become farmers, and their languages too became more settled and fewer in number. In recent centuries, trade, industrialisation, the development of the nation-state and the spread of universal compulsory education, especially globalisation and better communications in the past few decades, all have caused many languages to disappear, and dominant languages such as English, Spanish and Chinese are increasingly taking over.
At present, the world has about 6, 800 languages. The distribution of these languages is hugely uneven. The general rule is that mild zones have relatively few languages, often spoken by many people, while hot, wet zones have lots, often spoken by small numbers. Europe has only around 200 languages; the Americas about 1,000; Africa 2,400; and Asia and the Pacific perhaps 3,200, of which Papua New Guinea alone accounts for well over 800. The median number(中位数) of speakers is a mere 6,000, which means that half the world's languages are spoken by fewer people than that.
Already well over 400 of the total of 6, 800 languages are close to extinction(消亡), with only a few elderly speakers left. Pick, at random, Busuu in Cameroon (eight remaining speakers), Chiapaneco in Mexico (150), Lipan Apache in the United States (two or three) or Wadjigu in Australia (one, with a question-mark): none of these seems to have much chance of survival.
1. What can we infer about languages in hunter-gatherer times
A. They developed very fast. B. They were large in number.
C. They had similar patterns D. They were closely connected.
2. Which of the following best explains "dominant" underlined in Paragraph 2
A. Complex B. Advanced. C. Powerful D. Modern.
3. How many languages are spoken by less than 6,000 people at present
A. About 6,800 B. About 3,400 C. About 2,400 D. About 1,200
4. What is the main idea of the text
A. New languages will be created.
B. People's lifestyles are reflected in languages.
C. Human development results in fewer languages.
D. Geography determines language evolution.
D
People who give, live longer, studies have shown. Now, a new study by University of Michigan researchers shows that why people volunteer—not whether they volunteer—is what really counts.
For the study, Konrath and colleagues analyzed data collected in 2008 and 2012 aiming at the same random samples of 3,376 people. Overall, they found that just 2.3 percent of those who once worked as volunteers had died, compared to 4.3 percent of non-volunteers. They further found that how much people volunteered mattered as well—only 1.8 percent of regular volunteers died, compared with 2.5 percent of occasional volunteers.
But what really made a difference were people's motives for volunteering. The researchers asked people to rate how important they found various reasons for volunteering, and they found that the more important people rated reasons such as feeling pity for people in need, the more likely they were to be alive. Those who rated motives related to personal benefit as more important were more likely to have died, and just as likely to die as those who didn't volunteer at all. These reasons included volunteering because they enjoyed the social contact, to escape their own problems, or to explore their own strengths.
Konrath says the current findings suggest it may be a poor idea to encourage people to volunteer because it's good for them. "Volunteering is increasingly being encouraged in schools and organizations. Some groups say that it's okay to want benefits for yourself, and encourage people to think of volunteering as an exchange for personal interests. Some groups emphasize the health benefits received through volunteering." Konrath added, "Of course, it's reasonable for volunteers to expect benefits for themselves. But the potential health benefits of volunteering are significantly reduced if self-benefit becomes a person's main motive."
1.What does the new study mainly find
A. Whether we volunteer decides our well-being.
B. Why we volunteer has an impact on our health.
C. How we volunteer makes sense to others.
D. How often we volunteer makes a difference.
2.How did the researchers do the research
A. By analyzing statistics. B. By reviewing previous studies.
C. By doing lab experiments. D. By observing random samples.
3.Which of the following motives will probably benefit the volunteers most
A. Making more friends. B. Developing ability in practice.
C. Solving personal problems. D. Helping people in trouble.
4.What is the last paragraph mainly about
A. Practical suggestions on further studies.
B. Potential applications of the research method.
C.A further explanation of the current findings.
D.A reasonable doubt about the research findings.

However, there was hardly any chance for Carol's family to move to the city as they had everything in the village.
One day, Carol fell asleep during the early noon and she had a sound sleep. Of course, she had a strange dream. She saw her grandmother in her dream as a fairy and her deceased grandmother granted her a wish. Carol requested her that she should love to enjoy the city life as she always desired.
Grandmother understood the desire of Carol, but still wanted to convince her that the peaceful village life was better than the city life.

第二节
答案：①-⑤ attractions; To mark; covering; widely; on ⑥-⑩ its; was displayed; a; countries; whom
解析：①考查名词的数。句意:北京故宫博物院所在地,拥有180多万件文物,是世界上游客最多的旅游景点之一。one of后跟名词的复数形式,表示"…其中之一"。故填attractions。
②考查非谓语动词。句意:为了纪念故宫建成600周年,故宫博物院将在2020年举办一系列活动。此处用不定式表目的。故填 To mark。
③考查非谓语动词。句意将举办20多个展览,涵盖历史、艺术、节日等不同领域。 cover与其逻辑主语Over 20 exhibitions之间构成主动关系。故填covering 。
④考查副词。此处指中国最广为人知的杰作之一。known为形容词,需要用副词修饰。故填 widely。
⑤考查介词。短语 on display意为"展出"。故填on。
⑥考查形容词性物主代词。 preservation为名词,需要用形容词性物主代词修饰。故填its。
⑦考查动词的时态和语态。句意:这幅画于2005年首次展出,以庆祝该博物馆成立80周年。根据时间状语in 2005可知用一般过去时,且主语 The painting与谓语动词构成被动关系。故填 was displayed。
⑧考查冠词。句意:如此罕见的景象预计将吸引大批群众。 sight为名词,此处表泛指。故填不定冠词a。
⑨考查名词的数。句意:此外,博物馆还将展出其他国家的展品。 country为可数名词,由 other修饰数量大于一。故填复数形式 countries。
⑩考查定语从句。句意:2018年,超过1700万人参观了故宫博物院,其中40%的人不到30岁。of ⑩_____引导定语从句,修饰先行词 people,关系词在从句中作介词of的宾语。故填whom。

Yours sincerely,

第二节
答案：
Carol then found herself in the city with her friends. Carol and her friends went to watch movies. After that they ate delicious food in a restaurant and shopped in a huge mall. Carol was happy that she had the chance to experience the life in the city. Yet at the same time, she understood that everything told by her grandmother was true in the city. There was no peace and no silence; the city life was fast and rushing. The air quality was not satisfying. She could hardly find any animal or even a tree.
Carols brother Rob was calling her for lunch and Carol woke up. She recalled what happened just now in her dream and realized that her life in the village with her family was far more wonderful than the city life. Carol understood that she was having a more joyful life. She shared her dream with her family while enjoying the fresh fruits and vegetables, and they laughed together. Carol also developed love for plants, animals and beautiful nature.
