As far as fantastic drives go, few can compete with Highway 395. Here’s what you need to know before starting a road trip along it.
▲ What to Know About Driving on Highway 395
Highway 395 begins in Hesperia, a city about 90 minutes east of Los Angeles. It then continues for 1, 300 miles until its end points at the Canadian border. While the whole drive is beautiful, its most famous part runs from the Los Angeles area up to Reno, Nevada.
▲Where to Stop Along Highway 395
CONVICT LAKE
Convict Lake, one of California’s clearest bodies of water, is a beloved destination for photographers. During your drive, you can pull over for a photo, or quickly hop on a boat and cast a fishing line to see what you can catch.

Just around the corner, you’ll find Mammoth Mountain, one of America’s best ski destinations. Mammoth is renowned for its prolonged ski season, often lasting until July, and offers excellent areas for all skill levels.

▲When to Drive on Highway 395
Because many attractive places along Highway 395 are all-season destinations, there’s really no wrong time to set out for this road trip.

My family would describe me as anything but a risk-taker. “Grandma drives faster than you!” my younger son likes to joke with me. So when I announced I was going to step outside my comfort zone and sign up for a self-defense course, my children, my husband, and even my mom were a bit doubtful.
A gym near my house was offering two-hour classes including boxing, wrestling and judo (柔道). I signed up for it and for the next days I questioned whether yoga would have been a wiser choice. The morning of the class, I pulled up to the gym, grabbed my water bottle along with a bit of courage I brought with me, and walked inside. We learned how to kick and knee someone where it counts and how to strike using the palms of our hands. After the coach showed various escape skills, I found myself questioning my presence in such a setting. However, in the next second, I reminded myself that I had set out this journey to explore the furthest part of my abilities and to challenge the boundary of what I believed I was able to achieve.
Before I entered the gym, I never imagined I would have the confidence and courage to throw a blow that could discourage someone twice my size. Almost two years later, I still attend classes. As the oldest female in the class, I push myself to keep up, try harder and, more importantly, not quit.
Between increasing my strength and feeling confident about protecting myself (although I hope I never have to test my skills outside of the gym) , I’m proud of the risk I took in signing up for the course. I know that defending myself is not about strength, it’s about strategy. At the same time, I’m calmer and less anxious—a benefit my family enjoys.
As for my driving, after a recent lunch date, my mom suggested I speed up to at least the speed limit. She didn’t want to be late for her tennis match.
24. How did the author’s family think of her according to paragraph 1
A. She was dependable. B. She liked taking risks.
C. She used to enjoy her comfort zone. D. She drove fast.
25. What does the underlined word boundary in the second paragraph mean
A. limit. B. honor. C. aim. D. record.
26. What contributes to the success of the author
A. Strategies from the classmates. B. Her never giving up.
C. Encouragement from the family. D. Skills from the coach.
27. What can we infer from the last paragraph
A. Self-defense training improves family relationships.
B. The training leads to better control in daily life.
C. Mom is still worried about the author’s driving ability.
D. Calmness gained from training increases mom’s confidence in me.
C
Have you ever imagined travelling to a foreign country without having to worry about the headache of communicating in a different language
In a recent Wall Street Journal article, technology policy expert Alec Ross argued that, within ten years or so, we would be able to communicate with one another through small earpieces with built-in microphones. That’s because technological progress is extremely fast. It’s only a matter of time. Just as a “clever personal helper” like Siri or Alexa is getting better at understanding what you say, there is no reason to think that the future will not bring a “personal assistant translator”.
Nevertheless, translating is an altogether different task compared with finding the nearest Starbucks, because machines aim for perfection and reasonability, while languages — humans — are always imperfect and unreasonable. Replacing a word with its equivalent (对等词) in the target language is actually the easy part of a translator’s job. But this seems to be a tricky job for computers.
It’s so hard for computers because translation doesn’t— or shouldn’t — be simply translating words, sentences or paragraphs. Rather, it’s about translating meaning. And in order to infer meaning from a specific expression, people need to understand a lot of information all at once. Think about all the related information that can help us understand what someone is trying to say: tone, body movements, situations, and even your culture. All are likely to express as much meaning as the words you use.
Therefore, we should doubt whether a machine can truly understand our world like we do. If people from different cultures can upset each other without realizing it, how can we expect a machine to do better Unless engineers actually find a way to breathe a soul into a computer, when it comes to expressing and translating meaning using a natural language, a machine will never fully take our place. 28. According to Alec Ross, how will people communicate in the future
A. By using personal computers for translation widely.
B. By employing small earpieces with built-in microphones.
C. By turning to machines instead of human translators completely.
D. By hiring a clever personal helper like Siri or Alec Ross.
29. Why is it hard for computers to replace a word with its equivalent
A. Because it covers much more other than words.
B. Because it can’t infer the cultural meaning.
C. Because a man’s soul hasn’t been breathed in them.
D. Because it is different from finding the nearest Starbucks.
30. What’s the author’s attitude towards the machine technology
A. Unclear. B. Objective. C. Negative. D. Doubtful.
31. Which of the following is the best title for the text
A. The Difficulty of Translation. B. Travel without Headache.
C. Will the Language Barrier (障碍) Disappear D. Who will be a Better Translator
D
The rise of the Internet has been one of the most influential developments in human history, comparable in effect to the invention of the printing press and the telegraph (电报). Over two billion people worldwide now have access to more information than ever before, and can communicate with each other whenever they want, often using Web-connected mobile phones they carry everywhere. But the Internet’s huge influence has only just begun.
“Mass use of the Internet is driving one of the most exciting social, cultural, and political changes in history, and unlike earlier periods of change, this time the effects are fully global,” Schmidt and Cohen write in their new book The New Digital Age.
Perhaps the most far-reaching changes will come when the five billion people worldwide who currently have no access to Internet get online. The authors do an excellent job of examining the possible results of the Internet invention for individuals, governments, and institutions like the news media. But if the book has one major shortcoming, it’s that authors don’t spend enough time applying a critical eye to the role of Internet businesses in these sweeping changes.
At the center of the book is the idea that “technology is impartial, but people aren’t. “ By using this idea as a starting point, the authors aim to move beyond the now familiar optimist vs pessimist dichotomy (对立观点) that has characterized many recent debates about whether the rise of the Internet will finally be good or bad for society. In an interview with TIME earlier this week, Cohen said although he and his co-author are optimistic about many aspects of the Internet, they are also realistic about the risks and dangers that lie ahead when the next five billion people come online, particularly with respect to personal privacy and state monitoring.
32. Why does the author compare the Internet with the printing press and the telegraph
A. To present the development of technology. B. To show the creativity of human being.
C. To prove the efforts made by human being. D. To stress the great influence of the Internet.
33. What are the effects of the mass use of the Internet according to paragraph 2
A. They are immeasurable. B. They are uncontrollable.
C. They are worldwide. D. They are disastrous.
34. What is the major weakness of the book
A. It doesn’t recognize the influence of the Internet businesses.
B. It fails to look at the role of Internet businesses fully and objectively.
C. It lacks all-rounded monitoring on the sweeping changes.
D. It doesn’t cover the risks and dangers that lie ahead.
35. What do we know about the authors of The New Digital Age
A. They leave many questions unanswered.
B. They are optimistic about the future of the Internet.
C. They are not aware of the risks and dangers of the Internet.
D. They don’t take sides in examining the effects of the Internet.

根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填人空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
Many young Chinese people suffer from image anxiety. If you are someone who looks in the mirror every day and concentrate only on any tiny imperfection, you are not alone. 36 And for many people, struggling with body image is a continuous battle. It shows a greater and common issue: their search for self-acceptance and confidence.
“How unfriendly is the world to unattractive girls ” became a popular topic on Sina Weibo in March. 37 One internet user talked about how her friends would often cut her image out of group pictures because they thought she was too fat. “My nose is not high enough, my chin is short and flat, and my eyes are small,” Tang Yuqi, a college student, told China Youth Daily. She doesn’t even answer the door without putting on makeup first. “I just can’t accept myself if I’m not wearing it,” Tang added. What became clear was that this feeling of unsafety and alienation was all too common.
38 As the country’s economy has developed rapidly, people are more likely to be influenced by what others think of them. Greater time spent online also means more contact with advertisements promoting “paper-thin waists” or “chopstick legs”. 39 The anxiety has pushed some people into physical and mental illness. According to Beat, the UK’s leading eating disorder charity, the perfection of thinness is a key factor in worsening the illness and preventing recovery. Some people even go through surgery just to achieve what they believe society considers “beautiful”.
40 Growing taller and having perfect skin isn’t the solution to unsafety. The fact that every person is different is something to be celebrated. After all, perfection is dull and you are perfect when you fully realize yourself.
A. It is important to set up certain beauty standards.
B. Such unrealistic ideals only further young people’s anxiety and lead to unhealthy perfectionism.
C. It is a shared experience that many young people are facing.
D. The popularity of the topic shows that social media has a huge impact on young people’s self-image.
E. But beauty doesn’t come from a makeup brush or a thinner waist.
F. The topic attracted many girls who shared their personal experiences.
G. What promotes this anxiety among young people

When school was over, the day was fading and it started to rain. I stood at the school gate, with a loaded backpack on my shoulders. It was Friday again: a weekend of joy with long sleeping hours and dinner meals specially made to my taste, a weekend at home. I waved goodbye to my friends as they jumped into their fathers’ warm and comfortable cars. Curiously, this gave rise to a bad feeling in me. It was not exactly what they called jealousy (嫉 妒) , but something like depression. I knew all I could expect was an old bike Mom would ride along on, with the badly-oiled chain making an annoying sound to announce her arrival.
Every Friday when Mom came to pick me up for the weekend, it was a moment full of great expectation and great unease. I always felt my face burning as we rode our way in and out of the countless cars and saw my friends’ faces sticking out of the car windows. It was like stepping into a ballroom with beautifully dressed ladies and finding yourself in a smelly T-shirt.
To tell you the truth, Mom is quite a headache once in a while. She just looks a homely middle-aged housewife. Being a fan of DIY, she knits most of my sweaters, mainly in old styles. Whenever caught by some curious classmates asking what brand my sweaters are, I’d force a smile and reply in a half joking manner: homemade.
I couldn’t remember when I started to find her such an embarrassment. As a little boy, I depended on her so much. She had been working at home, cooking in the kitchen, knitting by the lamp or riding across town to buy me a book I badly needed. It had always been much fun riding with mom. But just now there seemed to be something standing between us, something that made her so strange to me and me to her.
Para 1. Today she showed up in a raincoat. ___________________________________________________

It is universally acknowledged that cats can keep us company and bring us joy. Unfortunately, several homeless cats deserted by their owners are often seen around our campus. With the freezing winter approaching, their struggle to survive becomes even more challenging.
We have the responsibility and the power to make a difference to the lives of these small creatures. Here are some ways we can help. First of all, providing safe food and clean water is of great importance. Stray cats often fall ill or even die because of eating dirty and unsafe food. What’s more, we can construct simple shelters to provide them with a warm place during the freezing winter months. Finally, we can use our radio station to spread the message about the importance of caring for stray cats and to raise awareness among all students and local residents.
Stray cats do deserve our care and attention. Let’s take action together to provide a harbor of love for these furry friends.
第二节（满分25分）
Today she showed up in a raincoat. Once she saw me, mom called my name excitedly. Almost everybody present looked in her direction. Covered by a heavy gray raincoat, she looked totally a middle-aged housewife, along with the creaking old bike. I was too ashamed to greet her, while she kept waving at me in enthusiasm as she drew near. “You must wait for long, darling. Are you cold ” She asked softly. In silence, I shot her a blaming glance and threw my backpack heavily into the front basket of the bike. Without a single word, I jumped onto the backseat, hoping to go home as soon as possible. She covered me with the back of the raincoat. Unwilling to look silly like that, I removed it impatiently on our way home.
Mom tried to cover me with the back of the raincoat again as a storm set in. Hardly had I managed to remove it again when I saw her red and tough hand that sheltered me from the rain with the rain coat, from which I could tell she was so cold to prevent the bitter wind that her freezing hands turned red. Mom bent forward and pedaled (踩踏板，骑车) with all her strength. All of a sudden, I recalled that she knitted most of my sweaters but none for herself. Slowly, tears rolled down my face and I wrapped my arms around her waist tightly.

W: Morning, Alex! Actually, no. I stayed up late watching a movie, and now I regret it. How about you

M: Sarah, the City Library has just got some brand-new books. They gave me a fresh book smell.
W: That’s good news! What kind of books are they
M: A bit of everything, actually. There’s a new mystery thriller that’s been getting fantastic reviews. It’s called Whispers in the Shadows. I’m sure it could keep you on your seat until the very last page.
W: Sounds interesting. What else caught your eye
M: In the fiction section, there’s a beautiful display of newly published novels. I picked one called Echoes of Eternity. It should be a heartbreaking story that unfolds against the background of a war. It’s about science, love and sacrifice.
W: I might check that one out. Anything else
M: Yes! There’s a non-fiction book called The Science of Happiness. It explores the psychology behind what makes us happy.
W: Sounds nice. Let’s go to the library right now.
M: Have you forgotten we have four classes this afternoon We won’t have enough time to read there. We can go there this Friday afternoon instead.

W: Today, let’s begin with note-taking techniques. Note-taking is an important skill not only for taking classes, but also for doing your job in the future. I’d like to draw your attention to certain points about taking notes. First, remember that note-taking should be 75% listening and only 25% writing, so don’t try to write down every single word the teacher says. Ignore what is unimportant and write in phrases not complete sentences. Second, leave spaces and lines between main ideas. You may want to add some information later. I find that some of you are very good at making use of color, mapping web and symbols such as arrows, circles and boxes. I highly recommend these tools to all of you, because the use of them makes the outline more easily readable and interesting than the blocks of text. It also makes sure that important words stand out. Here are some examples.
A篇【答案】21．C 22．D 23．A
这是一篇应用文。文章介绍了395公路上的美丽景点以及在这条公路上驾驶需要注意的事情。
21．理解归纳题。根据CONVICT LAKE标题下的”Convict Lake, one of California’s clearest bodies of water, is a beloved destination for photographers.

(在这里，你可以看到登山者登上半圆顶，感受约塞米蒂瀑布的力量，欣赏Tuolumme草地的美丽) “可知，这三个地方的共同特点就是它们为人们提供了亲近自然的机会。故选C。
22．细节理解题。根据最后一段”However, it’s important to remember the road can get rather dangerous in winter. . . make sure you’re aware of the conditions. 可知, 尽管一年四季都可以前往此地观光，但在冬天的时候道路会变得相当危险，因此，在前往此地之前，应查阅相关信息以确保安全。故选D。

本文是一篇记叙文。本文讲述了作者为了走出舒适圈报名参加自我防卫课程，并从中获益良多。
24. 推理判断题。根据第一段”My family would describe me as anything but a risk-taker. “Grandma drives faster than you! “ my younger son likes to joke with me. (我的家人会把我描述成一个不喜欢冒险的人。”奶奶开车都比你快! “小儿子喜欢跟我开玩笑。) “可知，作者的家人对她的看法是她不愿意冒险。当她宣布走出舒适区去上自卫课时，家人们都表示怀疑。故选C。
25. 词义猜测题。After the coach showed various escape skills, I found myself questioning my presence in such a setting. However, in the next second, I reminded myself that I had set out this journey to explore the furthest part of my
abilities and to challenge the boundary of what I believed I was able to achieve. 教练展示了各种逃生技能后，我发现自己开始质疑自己置身于这样的环境。然而，在下一秒，我提醒自己，我踏上这段旅程是为了探索我能力的最远端，根据explore the furthest part of my abilities, 可知作者初衷是去挑战我所认为自己能够达到的极限。故选A.

29. 推理判断题。根据文章第四段，完全依赖电脑翻译是很难的。在具体的语境中，翻译不仅仅是翻译单词、句子和段落，确切地说，它是有关意义的转换，涉及同时理解很多信息，包括语调，手势，情境甚至是文化。故可推断出，对电脑来说找到一个词对等的意思很难的。故选A。
30. 推理判断题。根据文章最后一段，”If people from different cultures can upset each other without realizing it, how can we expect a machine to do better “和”. . . a machine will never fully take our place. “可以得知，即使来自不同文化的人在没有意识到的情况下就有可能相互冒犯，我们又怎么能期望一台机器可以做得更好呢. . . . . . 机器将永远不能取代我们的位置。故选 C.
31. 主旨大意题。文章第一段和第二段提出问题：科技发展迅速，人们似乎不必担心不同语言交流的障碍。但是机器真的能取代人类翻译吗？文章3-4段给出答案及原因，最后一段总结。在翻译过程中，由于翻译不仅仅是翻译单词、句子和段落，确切地说，它是有关意义的转换，涉及很多方面的内容，不能期望机器比人类做得更好。所以文章主旨是机器翻译不会取代人类翻译，语言障碍不会消失，故C项”语言障碍真的会消失吗？”正确。

35. 推理判断题。根据最后一段第二、三句 “By using this idea as a starting point, the authors aim to move beyond the now familiar optimist vs pessimist dichotomy (对立观点) that has characterized many recent debates about whether the rise of the Internet will finally be good or bad for society. Cohen said that although he and his co-author are certainly optimistic about many aspects of the Internet, they’re also realistic about the risks and dangers that lie ahead when the next five billion people come online, particularly with respect to personal privacy and state monitoring”. 可知，作者们以这个想法为起点，旨在超越目前许多关于互联网兴起最终对社会是好是坏的辩论中常见的乐观派与悲观派的对立观点。作者们不仅谈及了网络的好处，也提到了网络存在的潜在风险。因此推断作者们对待网络持一种中立态度。故选D。
七选五【答案】36．C 37．F 38．G 39. B 40. E
这是一篇说明文。文章主要说明了社会上外貌焦虑现象，解释了其消极影响以及背后的原因，并阐述了作者的观点：众生各异，实乃庆事。毕竟，完美乏味，而君自知，则完美矣。
36．根据上文”许多中国年轻人饱受外貌焦虑之苦，如果你是那种每天照镜子，只关注一个小缺点的人，那么你并不孤单”，和下一句”对许多人而言，同身体形象的斗争是持久的”，可知”容貌焦虑是很多年轻人面对的共同问题。故选C。
37．根据下文，作者给出了两个对外貌焦虑的女孩的例子，以此说明第一句提到的新浪微博上的热门话题吸引了许多女孩儿的兴趣，她们分享了自己的个人经历。故选F。
38．本段主要解释了导致外貌焦虑的原因。随着国家经济的快速发展，人们更容易受到他人对他们的看法的影响。上网时间的增加也意味着更多地接触到宣传”纸片腰”或”筷子腿”等概念的广告。故G选项”是什么导致了年轻人的这种焦虑？”符合语境，故选G。
39. 根据上文提到的”广告所宣传的’纸腰’或’筷子腿’这些不切实际的理想只会加剧年轻人的焦虑，并导致一种不健康的完美主义心态。后文继续阐释了不健康的完美主义的表现，如身体或者精神疾病甚至一些人去进行整形手术。故选B。
40．本段阐释了作者的观点。长得更高、拥有完美肌肤并不是解决不安全感的方法。每个人都是不同的这一事实是值得庆祝的。毕竟，完美是乏味的，当你完全实现自我时，你就是完美的。所以美并不来自化妆刷或者是更细的腰。故选E。

As far as fantastic drives go, few can compete with Highway 395. Here’s what you need to know before starting a road trip along it.
▲ What to Know About Driving on Highway 395
Highway 395 begins in Hesperia, a city about 90 minutes east of Los Angeles. It then continues for 1, 300 miles until its end points at the Canadian border. While the whole drive is beautiful, its most famous part runs from the Los Angeles area up to Reno, Nevada.
▲Where to Stop Along Highway 395
CONVICT LAKE
Convict Lake, one of California’s clearest bodies of water, is a beloved destination for photographers. During your drive, you can pull over for a photo, or quickly hop on a boat and cast a fishing line to see what you can catch.
ΜΑΜΜΟΤΗ ΜOUNTAΙNM
Just around the corner, you’ll find Mammoth Mountain, one of America’s best ski destinations. Mammoth is renowned for its prolonged ski season, often lasting until July, and offers excellent areas for all skill levels.

▲When to Drive on Highway 395
Because many attractive places along Highway 395 are all-season destinations, there’s really no wrong time to set out for this road trip.

My family would describe me as anything but a risk-taker. “Grandma drives faster than you!” my younger son likes to joke with me. So when I announced I was going to step outside my comfort zone and sign up for a self-defense course, my children, my husband, and even my mom were a bit doubtful.
A gym near my house was offering two-hour classes including boxing, wrestling and judo (柔道). I signed up for it and for the next days I questioned whether yoga would have been a wiser choice. The morning of the class, I pulled up to the gym, grabbed my water bottle along with a bit of courage I brought with me, and walked inside. We learned how to kick and knee someone where it counts and how to strike using the palms of our hands. After the coach showed various escape skills, I found myself questioning my presence in such a setting. However, in the next second, I reminded myself that I had set out this journey to explore the furthest part of my abilities and to challenge the boundary of what I believed I was able to achieve.
Before I entered the gym, I never imagined I would have the confidence and courage to throw a blow that could discourage someone twice my size. Almost two years later, I still attend classes. As the oldest female in the class, I push myself to keep up, try harder and, more importantly, not quit.
Between increasing my strength and feeling confident about protecting myself (although I hope I never have to test my skills outside of the gym) , I’m proud of the risk I took in signing up for the course. I know that defending myself is not about strength, it’s about strategy. At the same time, I’m calmer and less anxious—a benefit my family enjoys.
As for my driving, after a recent lunch date, my mom suggested I speed up to at least the speed limit. She didn’t want to be late for her tennis match.
24. How did the author’s family think of her according to paragraph 1
A. She was dependable. B. She liked taking risks.
C. She used to enjoy her comfort zone. D. She drove fast.
25. What does the underlined word boundary in the second paragraph mean
A. limit. B. honor. C. aim. D. record.
26. What contributes to the success of the author
A. Strategies from the classmates. B. Her never giving up.
C. Encouragement from the family. D. Skills from the coach.
27. What can we infer from the last paragraph
A. Self-defense training improves family relationships.
B. The training leads to better control in daily life.
C. Mom is still worried about the author’s driving ability.
D. Calmness gained from training increases mom’s confidence in me.
C
Have you ever imagined travelling to a foreign country without having to worry about the headache of communicating in a different language
In a recent Wall Street Journal article, technology policy expert Alec Ross argued that, within ten years or so, we would be able to communicate with one another through small earpieces with built-in microphones. That’s because technological progress is extremely fast. It’s only a matter of time. Just as a “clever personal helper” like Siri or Alexa is getting better at understanding what you say, there is no reason to think that the future will not bring a “personal assistant translator”.
Nevertheless, translating is an altogether different task compared with finding the nearest Starbucks, because machines aim for perfection and reasonability, while languages — humans — are always imperfect and unreasonable. Replacing a word with its equivalent (对等词) in the target language is actually the easy part of a translator’s job. But this seems to be a tricky job for computers.
It’s so hard for computers because translation doesn’t— or shouldn’t — be simply translating words, sentences or paragraphs. Rather, it’s about translating meaning. And in order to infer meaning from a specific expression, people need to understand a lot of information all at once. Think about all the related information that can help us understand what someone is trying to say: tone, body movements, situations, and even your culture. All are likely to express as much meaning as the words you use.
Therefore, we should doubt whether a machine can truly understand our world like we do. If people from different cultures can upset each other without realizing it, how can we expect a machine to do better Unless engineers actually find a way to breathe a soul into a computer, when it comes to expressing and translating meaning using a natural language, a machine will never fully take our place. 28. According to Alec Ross, how will people communicate in the future
A. By using personal computers for translation widely.
B. By employing small earpieces with built-in microphones.
C. By turning to machines instead of human translators completely.
D. By hiring a clever personal helper like Siri or Alec Ross.
29. Why is it hard for computers to replace a word with its equivalent
A. Because it covers much more other than words.
B. Because it can’t infer the cultural meaning.
C. Because a man’s soul hasn’t been breathed in them.
D. Because it is different from finding the nearest Starbucks.
30. What’s the author’s attitude towards the machine technology
A. Unclear. B. Objective. C. Negative. D. Doubtful.
31. Which of the following is the best title for the text
A. The Difficulty of Translation. B. Travel without Headache.
C. Will the Language Barrier (障碍) Disappear D. Who will be a Better Translator
D
The rise of the Internet has been one of the most influential developments in human history, comparable in effect to the invention of the printing press and the telegraph (电报). Over two billion people worldwide now have access to more information than ever before, and can communicate with each other whenever they want, often using Web-connected mobile phones they carry everywhere. But the Internet’s huge influence has only just begun.
“Mass use of the Internet is driving one of the most exciting social, cultural, and political changes in history, and unlike earlier periods of change, this time the effects are fully global,” Schmidt and Cohen write in their new book The New Digital Age.
Perhaps the most far-reaching changes will come when the five billion people worldwide who currently have no access to Internet get online. The authors do an excellent job of examining the possible results of the Internet invention for individuals, governments, and institutions like the news media. But if the book has one major shortcoming, it’s that authors don’t spend enough time applying a critical eye to the role of Internet businesses in these sweeping changes.
At the center of the book is the idea that “technology is impartial, but people aren’t. “ By using this idea as a starting point, the authors aim to move beyond the now familiar optimist vs pessimist dichotomy (对立观点) that has characterized many recent debates about whether the rise of the Internet will finally be good or bad for society. In an interview with TIME earlier this week, Cohen said although he and his co-author are optimistic about many aspects of the Internet, they are also realistic about the risks and dangers that lie ahead when the next five billion people come online, particularly with respect to personal privacy and state monitoring.

Many young Chinese people suffer from image anxiety. If you are someone who looks in the mirror every day and concentrate only on any tiny imperfection, you are not alone. 36 And for many people, struggling with body image is a continuous battle. It shows a greater and common issue: their search for self-acceptance and confidence.
“How unfriendly is the world to unattractive girls ” became a popular topic on Sina Weibo in March. 37 One internet user talked about how her friends would often cut her image out of group pictures because they thought she was too fat. “My nose is not high enough, my chin is short and flat, and my eyes are small,” Tang Yuqi, a college student, told China Youth Daily. She doesn’t even answer the door without putting on makeup first. “I just can’t accept myself if I’m not wearing it,” Tang added. What became clear was that this feeling of unsafety and alienation was all too common.
38 As the country’s economy has developed rapidly, people are more likely to be influenced by what others think of them. Greater time spent online also means more contact with advertisements promoting “paper-thin waists” or “chopstick legs”. 39 The anxiety has pushed some people into physical and mental illness. According to Beat, the UK’s leading eating disorder charity, the perfection of thinness is a key factor in worsening the illness and preventing recovery. Some people even go through surgery just to achieve what they believe society considers “beautiful”.
40 Growing taller and having perfect skin isn’t the solution to unsafety. The fact that every person is different is something to be celebrated. After all, perfection is dull and you are perfect when you fully realize yourself.
A. It is important to set up certain beauty standards.
B. Such unrealistic ideals only further young people’s anxiety and lead to unhealthy perfectionism.
C. It is a shared experience that many young people are facing.
D. The popularity of the topic shows that social media has a huge impact on young people’s self-image.
E. But beauty doesn’t come from a makeup brush or a thinner waist.
F. The topic attracted many girls who shared their personal experiences.
G. What promotes this anxiety among young people

When school was over, the day was fading and it started to rain. I stood at the school gate, with a loaded backpack on my shoulders. It was Friday again: a weekend of joy with long sleeping hours and dinner meals specially made to my taste, a weekend at home. I waved goodbye to my friends as they jumped into their fathers’ warm and comfortable cars. Curiously, this gave rise to a bad feeling in me. It was not exactly what they called jealousy (嫉 妒) , but something like depression. I knew all I could expect was an old bike Mom would ride along on, with the badly-oiled chain making an annoying sound to announce her arrival.
Every Friday when Mom came to pick me up for the weekend, it was a moment full of great expectation and great unease. I always felt my face burning as we rode our way in and out of the countless cars and saw my friends’ faces sticking out of the car windows. It was like stepping into a ballroom with beautifully dressed ladies and finding yourself in a smelly T-shirt.
To tell you the truth, Mom is quite a headache once in a while. She just looks a homely middle-aged housewife. Being a fan of DIY, she knits most of my sweaters, mainly in old styles. Whenever caught by some curious classmates asking what brand my sweaters are, I’d force a smile and reply in a half joking manner: homemade.
I couldn’t remember when I started to find her such an embarrassment. As a little boy, I depended on her so much. She had been working at home, cooking in the kitchen, knitting by the lamp or riding across town to buy me a book I badly needed. It had always been much fun riding with mom. But just now there seemed to be something standing between us, something that made her so strange to me and me to her.
Para 1. Today she showed up in a raincoat. ___________________________________________________

It is universally acknowledged that cats can keep us company and bring us joy. Unfortunately, several homeless cats deserted by their owners are often seen around our campus. With the freezing winter approaching, their struggle to survive becomes even more challenging.
We have the responsibility and the power to make a difference to the lives of these small creatures. Here are some ways we can help. First of all, providing safe food and clean water is of great importance. Stray cats often fall ill or even die because of eating dirty and unsafe food. What’s more, we can construct simple shelters to provide them with a warm place during the freezing winter months. Finally, we can use our radio station to spread the message about the importance of caring for stray cats and to raise awareness among all students and local residents.
Stray cats do deserve our care and attention. Let’s take action together to provide a harbor of love for these furry friends.
第二节（满分25分）
Today she showed up in a raincoat. Once she saw me, mom called my name excitedly. Almost everybody present looked in her direction. Covered by a heavy gray raincoat, she looked totally a middle-aged housewife, along with the creaking old bike. I was too ashamed to greet her, while she kept waving at me in enthusiasm as she drew near. “You must wait for long, darling. Are you cold ” She asked softly. In silence, I shot her a blaming glance and threw my backpack heavily into the front basket of the bike. Without a single word, I jumped onto the backseat, hoping to go home as soon as possible. She covered me with the back of the raincoat. Unwilling to look silly like that, I removed it impatiently on our way home.
Mom tried to cover me with the back of the raincoat again as a storm set in. Hardly had I managed to remove it again when I saw her red and tough hand that sheltered me from the rain with the rain coat, from which I could tell she was so cold to prevent the bitter wind that her freezing hands turned red. Mom bent forward and pedaled (踩踏板，骑车) with all her strength. All of a sudden, I recalled that she knitted most of my sweaters but none for herself. Slowly, tears rolled down my face and I wrapped my arms around her waist tightly.

W: Today, let’s begin with note-taking techniques. Note-taking is an important skill not only for taking classes, but also for doing your job in the future. I’d like to draw your attention to certain points about taking notes. First, remember that note-taking should be 75% listening and only 25% writing, so don’t try to write down every single word the teacher says. Ignore what is unimportant and write in phrases not complete sentences. Second, leave spaces and lines between main ideas. You may want to add some information later. I find that some of you are very good at making use of color, mapping web and symbols such as arrows, circles and boxes. I highly recommend these tools to all of you, because the use of them makes the outline more easily readable and interesting than the blocks of text. It also makes sure that important words stand out. Here are some examples.
A篇【答案】21．C 22．D 23．A
这是一篇应用文。文章介绍了395公路上的美丽景点以及在这条公路上驾驶需要注意的事情。
21．理解归纳题。根据CONVICT LAKE标题下的”Convict Lake, one of California’s clearest bodies of water, is a beloved destination for photographers.

(就在拐角处，你会发现猛犸山，美国最好的滑雪胜地之一) “以及YOSEMITE NATIONAL PARK标题下的”Here, you can watch climbers make their way up Half Dome, feel the power of Yosemite Falls, and enjoy the beauty of Tuolumne Meadows. (在这里，你可以看到登山者登上半圆顶，感受约塞米蒂瀑布的力量，欣赏Tuolumme草地的美丽) “可知，这三个地方的共同特点就是它们为人们提供了亲近自然的机会。故选C。
22．细节理解题。根据最后一段”However, it’s important to remember the road can get rather dangerous in winter. . . make sure you’re aware of the conditions. 可知, 尽管一年四季都可以前往此地观光，但在冬天的时候道路会变得相当危险，因此，在前往此地之前，应查阅相关信息以确保安全。故选D。
23．推理判断题。根据第一段以及全文可知，文章介绍了395公路上的美丽景点以及在这条公路上驾驶需要注意的事情。由此推知，这篇文章有可能出自”旅游指南”。故选A。
B篇【答案】24．C 25．A 26．B 27. D
本文是一篇记叙文。本文讲述了作者为了走出舒适圈报名参加自我防卫课程，并从中获益良多。
24. 推理判断题。根据第一段”My family would describe me as anything but a risk-taker. “Grandma drives faster than you! “ my younger son likes to joke with me. (我的家人会把我描述成一个不喜欢冒险的人。”奶奶开车都比你快! “小儿子喜欢跟我开玩笑。) “可知，作者的家人对她的看法是她不愿意冒险。当她宣布走出舒适区去上自卫课时，家人们都表示怀疑。故选C。
25. 词义猜测题。After the coach showed various escape skills, I found myself questioning my presence in such a setting. However, in the next second, I reminded myself that I had set out this journey to explore the furthest part of my
abilities and to challenge the boundary of what I believed I was able to achieve. 教练展示了各种逃生技能后，我发现自己开始质疑自己置身于这样的环境。然而，在下一秒，我提醒自己，我踏上这段旅程是为了探索我能力的最远端，根据explore the furthest part of my abilities, 可知作者初衷是去挑战我所认为自己能够达到的极限。故选A.

C篇【答案】28．B 29．A 30．C 31. C
本文属于议论文。叙述了不同语言转换的障碍与翻译之间的壁垒问题，进而讨论了通过现代科学技术，语言障碍能不能消失的问题。
28. 细节理解题。根据文章第二段”within ten years or so, we would be able to communicate with one another through small earpieces with built-in microphones. “可以得出选B。
29. 推理判断题。根据文章第四段，完全依赖电脑翻译是很难的。在具体的语境中，翻译不仅仅是翻译单词、句子和段落，确切地说，它是有关意义的转换，涉及同时理解很多信息，包括语调，手势，情境甚至是文化。故可推断出，对电脑来说找到一个词对等的意思很难的。故选A。
30. 推理判断题。根据文章最后一段，”If people from different cultures can upset each other without realizing it, how can we expect a machine to do better “和”. . . a machine will never fully take our place. “可以得知，即使来自不同文化的人在没有意识到的情况下就有可能相互冒犯，我们又怎么能期望一台机器可以做得更好呢. . . . . . 机器将永远不能取代我们的位置。故选 C.
31. 主旨大意题。文章第一段和第二段提出问题：科技发展迅速，人们似乎不必担心不同语言交流的障碍。但是机器真的能取代人类翻译吗？文章3-4段给出答案及原因，最后一段总结。在翻译过程中，由于翻译不仅仅是翻译单词、句子和段落，确切地说，它是有关意义的转换，涉及很多方面的内容，不能期望机器比人类做得更好。所以文章主旨是机器翻译不会取代人类翻译，语言障碍不会消失，故C项”语言障碍真的会消失吗？”正确。

32. 推理判断题。根据第一段第一句，The rise of the Internet has been one of the most influential developments in human history, comparable in effect to the invention of the printing press and the telegraph (电报) . 互联网的兴起是人类历史上最具影响力的发展之一，其影响可与印刷机的发明和电报的发明相媲美。它们都对人类交流方面影响巨大。故选D。

35. 推理判断题。根据最后一段第二、三句 “By using this idea as a starting point, the authors aim to move beyond the now familiar optimist vs pessimist dichotomy (对立观点) that has characterized many recent debates about whether the rise of the Internet will finally be good or bad for society. Cohen said that although he and his co-author are certainly optimistic about many aspects of the Internet, they’re also realistic about the risks and dangers that lie ahead when the next five billion people come online, particularly with respect to personal privacy and state monitoring”. 可知，作者们以这个想法为起点，旨在超越目前许多关于互联网兴起最终对社会是好是坏的辩论中常见的乐观派与悲观派的对立观点。作者们不仅谈及了网络的好处，也提到了网络存在的潜在风险。因此推断作者们对待网络持一种中立态度。故选D。
七选五【答案】36．C 37．F 38．G 39. B 40. E
这是一篇说明文。文章主要说明了社会上外貌焦虑现象，解释了其消极影响以及背后的原因，并阐述了作者的观点：众生各异，实乃庆事。毕竟，完美乏味，而君自知，则完美矣。
36．根据上文”许多中国年轻人饱受外貌焦虑之苦，如果你是那种每天照镜子，只关注一个小缺点的人，那么你并不孤单”，和下一句”对许多人而言，同身体形象的斗争是持久的”，可知”容貌焦虑是很多年轻人面对的共同问题。故选C。
37．根据下文，作者给出了两个对外貌焦虑的女孩的例子，以此说明第一句提到的新浪微博上的热门话题吸引了许多女孩儿的兴趣，她们分享了自己的个人经历。故选F。
38．本段主要解释了导致外貌焦虑的原因。随着国家经济的快速发展，人们更容易受到他人对他们的看法的影响。上网时间的增加也意味着更多地接触到宣传”纸片腰”或”筷子腿”等概念的广告。故G选项”是什么导致了年轻人的这种焦虑？”符合语境，故选G。
39. 根据上文提到的”广告所宣传的’纸腰’或’筷子腿’这些不切实际的理想只会加剧年轻人的焦虑，并导致一种不健康的完美主义心态。后文继续阐释了不健康的完美主义的表现，如身体或者精神疾病甚至一些人去进行整形手术。故选B。
40．本段阐释了作者的观点。长得更高、拥有完美肌肤并不是解决不安全感的方法。每个人都是不同的这一事实是值得庆祝的。毕竟，完美是乏味的，当你完全实现自我时，你就是完美的。所以美并不来自化妆刷或者是更细的腰。故选E。
