I was working as a consultant (顾问) in a beer company, helping the president and senior vice-presidents with something important. It was a big challenge. At the same time, my mother was in the final stages of cancer.
I worked during the day and drove miles home to be with her every night. It was tiring and stressful, but it was what I wanted to do. My promise was to continue to do excellent consulting during the day, even though my evenings were very hard. I didn’t want to bother the president with my situation. But I felt someone at the company wanted to know what was going on. So I told the vice president of Human Resources, asking him not to share the information with anyone.
A few days later, the president called me into his office. I figured he wanted to talk to me about one of the many issues we were working on. When I entered, he asked me to sit down. He faced me from across his large desk, looked me in the eye and said, “I heard your mother is very ill.”
I was totally taken by surprise and burst into tears. He just looked at me, let my crying subside (平息), and then he gently said a sentence I will never forget, “Whatever you need.” That was it. His understanding and willingness both to let me be in my pain and to offer me everything were qualities of compassion (同情) that I carry with me to this day.
( )24.What does the author think of his job as a consultant in a beer company
A.It was a great challenge. B.It was an easy thing.
C.It was quite boring. D.It was rather interesting.
( )25.What was wrong with the author’s mother
A.She was injured in a traffic accident. B.She was too old to look after herself.
C.She was in the final stages of cancer. D.She fell down the stairs and broke her leg.
( )26.Who did the author tell about his information at the company
A.One of his friends. B.The manager of his department.
C.The secretary of the president. D.The vice-president of Human Resources.
( )27.Why did the president call the author into his office
A.To offer whatever help the author needed.
B.To ask him to do some market research about their beer.
C.To talk with the author about some problems in their work.
D.To provide the author some advice on how to cure his mother.
C
Walking is the best form of exercise. It is good for the upper respiratory (与呼吸有关的) system and the legs. It helps us control our weight and blood sugar. Walking is also a good way to help you make more friends, bringing chances to see new things and meet new people. Personally I try to walk at least 5 miles daily.
As well as walking, I also cycle around Xiamen. Cycling is great for weight loss and helps to build stamina (耐力). However, cycling does not allow for the same level of social contact as a walk. It is for this reason that I will strongly suggest that you try long-distance walking if you want to be physically healthy. I originally started walking around Xiamen because I didn’t have a car, but I soon started to enjoy the walking for its own sake.
I have also made many friends during my walks. It’s not uncommon for my 5-mile walk to sometimes take as long as 2 or 3 hours, because I stop to chat with different shop owners along my route. These days, if I skip my walk for even one day, the people in the shops may want to know why I didn’t come.
I’ll never forget the first time some people followed me when I was walking, and asked if it was okay for them to walk with me, I really didn’t know what to say, so I just replied that I didn’t mind. I have been invited for lunch, dinner and sometimes just to sit and drink tea with total strangers. There is nothing more pleasant than walking past a schoolyard and hearing all the kids say hello to me.
( )28.Why did the author have to take a walk at the very beginning
A.He wanted to build up his strength. B.He enjoyed walking.
C.He had no car. D.He wished to make friends.
( )29.What does the underlined word “skip” in the third paragraph probably mean
A.Jump lightly. B.Give up. C.Leave out. D.Change quickly.
( )30.What can be learned from the text
A.Cycling allows for no social contact. B.Walking is better than cycling.
C.To be healthy, it’s better to cycle. D.The author prefers walking to cycling.
( )31.Why does the author tell us his walking experience in the last two paragraphs
A.To share the unforgettable experience with us.
B.To show the meaning of walking in social contact.
C.To tell us how to develop the habit of walking.
D.To explain why a usual walk takes him as long as 2 or 3 hours.

We can picture a future world where machines will enlarge our human abilities and help us make better life choices, from health to wealth, as we live longer and longer and technology continues its rapid development. Through our dialogue and digital pieces, AI (人工智能) will understand our life goals and wishes, our duties and limitations. It will help us plan different life events, so we can spend more time enjoying life’s moments.
The ability for AI to understanad the complexities (复杂性) and slight differences of human conversation is, however, one hurdle (障碍). There are several thousand known living languages in the world today. Adding to the difficulties are the varied ways words are shared and used across different cultures, including grammar, levels of education and styles of the speakers. Google Duplex, the technology supporting Google Assistant, which places phone calls using a natural-sounding human voice instead of a robotic one, is an early attempt to address such challenges in human communications. But these are just initial whispers in voice of AI’s long journey.
Beyond making reservations and conducting simple dialogues, virtual assistants will need to become far more useful and further fit into the parts of our everyday lives. Not only will they need to foresee what we need before we ask, they also need to understand the context of our conversations and react accordingly. Imagine a snow day when school is canceled for the kids. Knowing that you must now stay at home with your children, your phone would remind you, asking if you’d like your meetings moved to the following day. Or imagine how much more pleasant your journey home from a business trip would be if your phone could automatically arrange for a ride waiting to pick you up at the airport, based on your travel plan, location, and habits. The possibilities are endless.
( )32.What do we know about AI
A.It narrows our abilities. B.It limits our better choice.
C.It helps us enjoy life better. D.It doesn’t know our limitations.
( )33.What makes it hard for AI to understand what humans say
A.Imperfection of AI. B.Low level of speakers.
C.Similarities between languages. D.Varieties of languages and cultures.
( )34.Which word can best describe the author’s attitude towards AI
A.Doubtful. B.Approving. C.Negative. D.Critical (批判的).
( )35.Which of the following can be the best title of the text
A.AI Will Replace Humans B.AI Will Set Goals for Us
C.AI Will Meet Challenges D.AI Will Be Part of Our Daily Lives

How to Make Sure You Enjoy Your Trip
A trip is a planned journey that one arranges in advance and whose main purpose is to search for adventure and to create a memorable moment. Here are the steps on how to make sure your trip is enjoyable.
Plan it well. Trips should be ideally planned to go well. 36 A checklist is helpful, making sure you’ve got all your needs.
Pack necessities. Bring what you need. Trips are short journeys and belong to the sub-level of traveling. Pack only the things you need. 37
Be safe. To be cautious is smart. No matter what you are up to, surfing, cliff diving, snowboarding or scuba diving, it is always recommended to be safe. 38 Don’t be stubborn and put yourself in harm’s way when there are precautions.
39 You may see delays (延误), different cultures, lifestyles, foods, and even a shortage of cash sometimes—these are all what travel is about—experiencing things with a new perspective (视角). Once you expect to experience new things, you’ll be a happy traveler and free from stress.
Save the memory. 40 This is not one of those regular days so you ought to save the moment. It will make your trip more enjoyable after all that craziness; you get something to review the good times.
A.Travel with an open mind.
B.Get prepared for everything new.
C.This is all we expect from a trip.
D.Seize the moment by taking pictures.
E.It is important to wear protective equipment when necessary.
F.It is easy to get tired if you have too many things in your package.
G.Take your time, a day or a week ahead to make a plan for your trip.

Dear Tim,
Knowing that you are enthusiastic about Chinese traditional festivals, I’m writing to introduce my favourite one named the Lantern Festival. It falls on the 15th day of the first lunar month, marking the end of the Spring Festival.
There is a wide range of interesting activities. People get together to have a family reunion dinner, eating tang yuan, balls of sticky rice flour stuffed with different fillings. Its round shape symbolizes unity, harmony and happiness. After dinner, family and friends go out to enjoy the magnificent and dazzling lantern show and guess riddles written on the lanterns.
It allows Chinese people to gratefully reunite with family members, which has been an integral part of Chinese culture.
Yours,
Li Hua
