五、阅读单选
A
There was a hot topic on the Internet recently. A Tsinghua University student’s online stories about his penny-pinching（不愿意花钱的）campus life have brought any netizens to tears, who were moved by his thorough accounts of how study grants（助学金）and scholarships（奖学金）helped him get over difficulties and inspired him to give back to society in return.
He was born in a poor family and lived with his father. He worked hard on his studies all the time. He was given a total of 13,000 yuan as a scholarship before going to the university. After paying his tuition（学费）and other fees, he had just about 6,500 yuan left, which was all the money he could spend in a year. He ate cheap food in the canteen and avoided class outings which cost much money.
In his junior year, he found himself a part time job near the campus. The work earned him 100 yuan an hour, raising his spending power to 2,000-3,000 yuan a month. After entering the graduate school, he decided, in return, to donate his hard-earned money to needy students. He gave away 3,200 yuan to four students every term through a charity organization. “When I received the money from the university each time, my excitement was beyond words. Perhaps only those who have been poor can understand me,” he said. “Sending coal on a snowy day is far better than adding icing on the cake.”
To express his thanks, the student sent two handwritten letters to the people who had helped him every year, telling them some news on his studies and career plans. “Having received help myself, I believe I should give back to help match the kindness and I am doing so. I hope one day I can set up an organization to help more people in need,” he said.
11．How much were the student’s tuition and other fees
A．About 2,000 yuan. B．About 3,000 yuan. C．About 6,500 yuan. D．About 13,000 yuan.
12．What does the underlined sentence probably mean in Chinese
A．授人以鱼不如授人以渔 B．雪中送炭胜于锦上添花
C．冰冻三尺非一日之寒 D．无私助人，不图回报
13．What do we know from the handwritten letters of the student
A．His thanks and studies. B．The changes of his school.
C．The students in his class. D．His hobbies and family.
14．What do we know about the Tsinghua University student in the story
A．He was born poor but he was excellent. B．He found a part: time job on campus.
C．His parents asked him to help people in need. D．He gave away 3.200 yuan to fourteen students.
15．What’s the passage mainly about
A．Students should try their best to help others.
B．A poor student who received help helped others in return.
C．Some students had to do part-time work to make money.
D．A student worked hard and entered Tsinghua University.

Besides the price of the room, there are other things that can help you save some money.
1.Stay at a Hotel that Offers Free Breakfast.
This is a common way of saving money when you travel. Hotels with the best free breakfast include: Embassy Suites by Hilton, Courtyard by Marriott, and Holiday Inn Express.
2.Free “Happy Hour” Yes, Please.
The hotel Embassy Suites by Hilton offers a “Manager’s Reception” every night from 5:30 to 7:30. During this time, you can get free drinks and snacks. Although it’s hard to find another hotel that does this, there are some hotels which offer “Buy one, get one free” at the bar during the Happy Hour.
3.Stay at a Hotel that Offers the Free Internet.
Many hotels offer the free Internet, which makes it convenient for you to surf online and can help you save some money.
4.Stay at a Hotel that Offers the Free Shuttle（班车）Service.
The best way to avoid renting（租）a car, but still be able to get around is to stay at a hotel with a free shuttle service. It is important to know more about the service ahead of time. Some hotels will take you wherever you want to go. Others may offer the service under some conditions.
5.Stay Close to the Destination（目的地）You Are Visiting.
It makes good sense to choose a hotel in the resort（景点）. For example, if you are vising Disney World, you don’t have to drive to and from the park every day. Not only will this possibly save you from renting a car, but it can also save you a lot of money on gas.
16．Which of the following is a common way of saving money when you travel
A．Sleeping in a tent at night. B．Having breakfast for free,
C．Enjoying the free shuttle service. D．Enjoying free drinks during the daytime.
17．What do we know about “Manager’s Reception”

C．It lasts two hours every evening. D．It offers “Buy one, get one free”.
18．What should hotel customers do before choosing a shuttle service
A．Buy a map of the area. B．Read online comments.
C．Make a good travel plan. D．Check service instructions.
19．Why does the author take Disney World as an example
A．To show the terrible traffic there. B．To show the gas price has gone up quickly.
C．To show Disney World is an attractive place. D．To show the advantages of living near your destination.
20．Where does the passage probably come from
A．A news report. B．A movie poster. C．A travel magazine. D．A car advertisement.
答案：16．B17．D18．D19．D20．C

What color is a tennis ball Ask your classmates, and they might give you some surprising answers.
The Atlantic asked 30,000 people this question. Among the people surveyed, 52 percent said tennis balls are green, 42 percent said yellow, and 6 percent said something else.
According to the International Tennis Federation, tennis balls are yellow. So, why do most people say that they’re green
When we first see an object in natural light, our brains recognize its true color. Even if the object is seen in different kinds of light later, our brains can still tell its true color. Scientists call this color constancy（色彩恒常性）. For example, we know that China’s flag is red. When we see it during sunset or under purple light, we still know that it is red, even if it looks like a different color.
However, the color of a tennis ball is not as pure as the flag. It appears to be a combination（结合）of yellow, a “warm” color, and green, a “cool” color.
The US-based magazine says that when our brains try to figure out what color the ball is, some people ignore（忽略）cool colors like green, blue and purple. So they see the ball as yellow. Others ignore warm colors, such as red, yellow and orange. They see the ball as green.
It is not just tennis balls that make such confusion（混淆）. In 2015, a girl posted a picture of a dress online. Some people said the dress was black and blue while others said it was gold and white. They had different opinions based on whether they ignored cool or warm colors.
21．How many people said tennis balls are yellow according to the survey
A．30,000. B．15,600. C．12,600. D．1800.
22．What color is the tennis ball according to the International Tennis Federation
A．Yellow. B．Green. C．White. D．Blue.
23．What can our brain tell with color constancy
A．It can tell the objects’ difference in different kinds of light. B．It can tell the true color of things in different lights.
C．It can tell the truth of the colors under purple light. D．It can tell people what color the flag is.
24．What are the cool colors according to the passage
A．Red, yellow and orange. B．Yellow, green and purple. C．Green, blue and red. D．Blue, purple and green.
25．What can we learn from the passage
A．Colors always confuse people. B．People sometimes give some strange answers.
C．People may ignore either cool colors or warm colors.
D．Colors are seen by different people under different kinds of light.
答案：21．C22．A23．B24．D25．C

What keeps us healthy and happy as we go through life What if we could study people from the time that they were teenagers all the way into old age ___36___(find) the answer
We did that. The Harvard Study of Adult Development may be the longest study of adult life that has ever been done. Since 1938, we ___37___(follow) the lives of 724 men, year after year, asking about their work, their home lives, their health, and of course asking all along the way without knowing how their life stories were going to turn out. ___38___ good luck and the hard work of several generations of researchers, this study has survived. About 60 of our original 724 men are still alive, still taking part in the study.

We’ve learned three big lessons about relationships. First, social ___40___(connect) are really good us, and that loneliness kills.

Second, it’s not just ___42___ number of friends you have, but it’s the quality of your close relationships matters. Living in the midst of conflict（冲突）is really bad for our health ___43___ living in the midst of good, warm relationships is protective. Third, good relationships don’t just protect our bodies, they protect our brains.
I’d like to close with a quote（原话）from Mark Twain. More than a century ago, he was looking back on ___44___(he) life, and he wrote this: “There isn’t time, so brief is life, for bickering（争吵）, apologies, heartburnings（嫉妒）, callings to account. There is only time for loving, and but an instant, so to speak, for that.” Remember, the good life ____45____(build) with good relationships.
36．to find 37．have followed 38．With 39．clearest 40．connections 41．physically 42．the 43．while
44．his 45．is built

五、阅读单选
A
There was a hot topic on the Internet recently. A Tsinghua University student’s online stories about his penny-pinching（不愿意花钱的）campus life have brought any netizens to tears, who were moved by his thorough accounts of how study grants（助学金）and scholarships（奖学金）helped him get over difficulties and inspired him to give back to society in return.
He was born in a poor family and lived with his father. He worked hard on his studies all the time. He was given a total of 13,000 yuan as a scholarship before going to the university. After paying his tuition（学费）and other fees, he had just about 6,500 yuan left, which was all the money he could spend in a year. He ate cheap food in the canteen and avoided class outings which cost much money.
In his junior year, he found himself a part time job near the campus. The work earned him 100 yuan an hour, raising his spending power to 2,000-3,000 yuan a month. After entering the graduate school, he decided, in return, to donate his hard-earned money to needy students. He gave away 3,200 yuan to four students every term through a charity organization. “When I received the money from the university each time, my excitement was beyond words. Perhaps only those who have been poor can understand me,” he said. “Sending coal on a snowy day is far better than adding icing on the cake.”
To express his thanks, the student sent two handwritten letters to the people who had helped him every year, telling them some news on his studies and career plans. “Having received help myself, I believe I should give back to help match the kindness and I am doing so. I hope one day I can set up an organization to help more people in need,” he said.

Besides the price of the room, there are other things that can help you save some money.
1.Stay at a Hotel that Offers Free Breakfast.
This is a common way of saving money when you travel. Hotels with the best free breakfast include: Embassy Suites by Hilton, Courtyard by Marriott, and Holiday Inn Express.
2.Free “Happy Hour” Yes, Please.
The hotel Embassy Suites by Hilton offers a “Manager’s Reception” every night from 5:30 to 7:30. During this time, you can get free drinks and snacks. Although it’s hard to find another hotel that does this, there are some hotels which offer “Buy one, get one free” at the bar during the Happy Hour.
3.Stay at a Hotel that Offers the Free Internet.
Many hotels offer the free Internet, which makes it convenient for you to surf online and can help you save some money.
4.Stay at a Hotel that Offers the Free Shuttle（班车）Service.
The best way to avoid renting（租）a car, but still be able to get around is to stay at a hotel with a free shuttle service. It is important to know more about the service ahead of time. Some hotels will take you wherever you want to go. Others may offer the service under some conditions.
5.Stay Close to the Destination（目的地）You Are Visiting.

What color is a tennis ball Ask your classmates, and they might give you some surprising answers.
The Atlantic asked 30,000 people this question. Among the people surveyed, 52 percent said tennis balls are green, 42 percent said yellow, and 6 percent said something else.
According to the International Tennis Federation, tennis balls are yellow. So, why do most people say that they’re green
When we first see an object in natural light, our brains recognize its true color. Even if the object is seen in different kinds of light later, our brains can still tell its true color. Scientists call this color constancy（色彩恒常性）. For example, we know that China’s flag is red. When we see it during sunset or under purple light, we still know that it is red, even if it looks like a different color.
However, the color of a tennis ball is not as pure as the flag. It appears to be a combination（结合）of yellow, a “warm” color, and green, a “cool” color.
The US-based magazine says that when our brains try to figure out what color the ball is, some people ignore（忽略）cool colors like green, blue and purple. So they see the ball as yellow. Others ignore warm colors, such as red, yellow and orange. They see the ball as green.
It is not just tennis balls that make such confusion（混淆）. In 2015, a girl posted a picture of a dress online. Some people said the dress was black and blue while others said it was gold and white. They had different opinions based on whether they ignored cool or warm colors.
21．How many people said tennis balls are yellow according to the survey
A．30,000. B．15,600. C．12,600. D．1800.
22．What color is the tennis ball according to the International Tennis Federation
A．Yellow. B．Green. C．White. D．Blue.
23．What can our brain tell with color constancy
A．It can tell the objects’ difference in different kinds of light. B．It can tell the true color of things in different lights.
C．It can tell the truth of the colors under purple light. D．It can tell people what color the flag is.
24．What are the cool colors according to the passage
A．Red, yellow and orange. B．Yellow, green and purple. C．Green, blue and red. D．Blue, purple and green.
25．What can we learn from the passage
A．Colors always confuse people. B．People sometimes give some strange answers.
C．People may ignore either cool colors or warm colors.
D．Colors are seen by different people under different kinds of light.

What keeps us healthy and happy as we go through life What if we could study people from the time that they were teenagers all the way into old age ___36___(find) the answer
We did that. The Harvard Study of Adult Development may be the longest study of adult life that has ever been done. Since 1938, we ___37___(follow) the lives of 724 men, year after year, asking about their work, their home lives, their health, and of course asking all along the way without knowing how their life stories were going to turn out. ___38___ good luck and the hard work of several generations of researchers, this study has survived. About 60 of our original 724 men are still alive, still taking part in the study.
So what have we learned Well, the lessons aren’t about wealth or fame or working harder and harder. The ___39___(clear) message that we get from this 75-year study is this: Good relationships keep us happier and healthier.
We’ve learned three big lessons about relationships. First, social ___40___(connect) are really good us, and that loneliness kills. It turns out that people who are more socially connected to others are happier, ___41___(physical) healthier, and live longer than people who are less well connected. Second, it’s not just ___42___ number of friends you have, but it’s the quality of your close relationships matters. Living in the midst of conflict（冲突）is really bad for our health ___43___ living in the midst of good, warm relationships is protective. Third, good relationships don’t just protect our bodies, they protect our brains.
I’d like to close with a quote（原话）from Mark Twain. More than a century ago, he was looking back on ___44___(he) life, and he wrote this: “There isn’t time, so brief is life, for bickering（争吵）, apologies, heartburnings（嫉妒）, callings to account. There is only time for loving, and but an instant, so to speak, for that.” Remember, the good life ____45____(build) with good relationships.
