Exams never made me break out in a nervous sweat — but this one did. Even booking my piano exam reduced me to a mess of anxiety.
I feel permanently scared inside churches, where piano exams are held — no longer admiring their beauty because, over the years, I have received terrible marks from examiners. Despite being 15 — too old to cool to be frightened — I remember trembling in the bathroom before my tests. I wished I had never had to play in front of others.
This time, after booking my Level 8 Royal Conservatory of Music piano exam. I went back to my normal routine. A little practice here, a little practice there. And then it happened. My trusty, 10-year-old electric piano gave out. When I told my father what had happened to my piano, he only glared at me with disappointment, “When I was your age, I learned to be resourceful.”
Hmm. I had a broken piano, an exam coming up in a few months, and a father who refused to buy me a new piano because he wanted to teach me a “life lesson”. I finally came up with a decision: I’d practice at school.
The school had many pianos but only a few were in tune. Within a few days of searching, I headed off to a music room at every available opportunity. I loved finding new pianos in hidden corners of the school and spent hours practicing.
As my exam drew near, all the music teachers knew to look for me in the piano rooms after school. In anticipation of my assessment, one of my music teachers let me perform as a mini practice exam. To my surprise, she was greatly impressed.
Music had never been the love of my life, but that was changing. When I played, my worries about how others judged me and how I viewed myself merged to reveal who I really am. All my adolescent thoughts made me feel like I was in a cage, but music gave me the key.
Within a few months I went from not caring about my playing to feeling actually kind of proud of my work. In my favorite, soundproof music room, I discovered that behind the piano, I could become anyone. Talking to other people never came easy to me, but I was able to express myself through music. I became overjoyed.
When the time came to play in front of an examiner, all the anxiety I had about going up on stage dimmed, and all I could think about was the marvelous journey I’d had to get here. Trilling the keys reminded me of the bittersweet music experiences of past years and my happiness nowadays.
Many days later, I received my mark — a rarely mentioned “well done”. Now, whenever I get caught up in the daily struggle, I remember the hard work that it took to reach my new goal. Whenever I feel discouraged, I never forget to look at the gleaming keys of my new upright piano. As my father always says, some lessons are just learned the hard way.
41. What made the author so stressed inside churches these years
A. The religious atmosphere. B. The artistic performance.
C. The piano exams. D. Her colorful fantasy.
42. What can be inferred according to the underlined sentence in Para 3

B. The father was quite angry about the author’s bad behavior.
C. The father wanted the author to address the problem independently.
D. The author showed great dissatisfaction about her father.
43. The author changed her attitude towards music mainly because
A. her hard work and determination B. her own understanding of musical value
C. her teachers’ constant encouragement D. her family’s enthusiastic support

A. mixed B. separated C. interacted D. exploited
45. Which of the following indicates the change of the author’s feelings

C. Depressed—satisfied—disappointed—peaceful D. Frightened—indifferent—passionate—proud

As medical science develops rapidly with new technology, what is left for the doctor to do
For medical humanist Dr. Abraham Verghese, the answer is simple: Spend more time getting to know your patients as people. Take the time to read a poem and other literature. Do your part to bridge the gap (鸿沟) between the two cultures of science and the humanities.
It takes a doctor who knows a patient’s life history well to make the best use of these tools, Verghese said. And that means paying more attention to human character.
Verghese said machines “have gone beyond human beings in their ability to care for the patient,” that is, in diagnosing illnesses and indicating the best treatment.
But doctors can awaken the human spirit, the knowledge of human beings and their motivations (动机), which can pull together a life picture of a patient and understand them as more than a collection of symptoms.
Case history: A 64-year-old man was admitted to the hospital after repeated falls, pains, and the loss of two teeth that just fell out, with no obvious cause.
What was wrong Was it his medicine Was it alcohol abuse (酗酒)
The man rapidly improved after being hospitalized. It turned out he had bachelor scurvy, a disease among older men who live alone, which results from a lack of nutrition (缺乏营养).
“He was surviving on no fruits or vegetables, just alcohol and processed meats, I would guess,” Verghese said. “My point here is that this diagnosis, as clever as it was, also might have been made much, much earlier had we had a good relationship with this patient and had some sense of who that person was, as an individual.”
46. What is Verghese’s suggestion for doctors
A. Use machines less frequently.
B. Remember to care for patients.
C. Try to make an early diagnosis of patients.
D. Keep up with the development of technology.
47. What does Verghese think of medical equipment
A. It needs to be improved greatly.
B. It will replace doctors sooner or later.
C. It may give patients incorrect treatment.
D. It is of great help in diagnosing illnesses.
48. What can we infer about the 64-year-old man mentioned in the text
A. He lives on his own.
B. He lives a healthy lifestyle.
C. He suffers from a rare disease.
D. He is a regular visitor to the hospital.
49. How did the author support his/her idea in Paragraphs 6—9
A. By giving an example.
B. By making comparisons.
C. By providing explanations.
D. By showing facts and opinions.
50. What is the author’s purpose in writing the text
A. To introduce some medical tools.
B. To advise doctors to get to know patients better.
C. To describe the development of medical science.
D. To show the importance of machines in medical operations.
D
Charity is simple in theory: A heart warms, a hand reaches out. In practice, though, charity can become a troubled mix of motives and consequences. Giving can be driven by guilt, duty, praise, or perhaps the hope that giving will somehow make up for past cruelty or ignorance. Too little charity is far less than valuable. Too much can cause over-reliance, which makes the receiver continuously ask for more.
Giving from the heart is good. But critics have long worried about misdirected charity that does more harm than good. In his 2012 book, Harmful Charity: How Churches and Charities Hurt Those They Help (And How to Solve the Problem), Robert Lupton, an experienced social worker of 40 years of community work in inner-city Atlanta, argues that charity must not do for the poor what they can do for themselves.
Due to emergencies such as natural disasters, the afterward financial aid is greatly welcome. Mr. Lupton advocates it should focus on the development of self-supporting. The task can be carried out via, for instance, offering micro-loans, hiring local builders and suppliers, and trying to found self-supported, locally owned and operated factories. What seldom works, he argues, are untargeted handouts from far-off providers and the sudden arrival of inexperienced volunteer-tourists hoping to earn personal reputation by digging wells or mending roofs that locals are perfectly able to take care of themselves.
Getting charity right isn’t easy. But from money raising to the rising in volunteering among Millennials(千禧一代), from the increasing worldwide willingness to give to the efforts by charity organizations to become more effective and fruitful, there is strong evidence that human beings’ ability of taking care of others is growing along with their ability to help without harming.
Charity can be as simple as holding the door for a stranger and as complex as a global campaign to get rid of malaria(疟疾). Charity works best when it returns the weak to strength, and helps a small town shaken by an earthquake get back on its feet. A successful charity is one that eventually is no longer needed.
51. What can we know about charity in paragraph 1
A. Charity is simple in both theory and practice.
B. Some charity providers are cruel or ignorant.
C. There is much less charity than needed.
D. Charity may result in dependence.
52. Why have critics worried about misdirected charity
A. It may have a bad impact on receivers. B. It may cause hurt to social workers.
C It can be driven by guilt and duty. D. It may help less to the poor.
53. What can be a proper way to give charity in time of natural disasters
A. Hiring local workers. B. Founding advanced factories.
C. Building houses for victims. D. Giving untargeted handouts.
54. What can we learn from paragraph 4
A. It’s easy to give charity without harming.
B. Millennials enjoy earning personal reputation.
C. There appears ability promotion in giving charity.
D. Charity organizations are spreading all over the world.
55. What is the writing purpose of the text
A. To appeal for more charity.
B. To advocate getting charity right.
C. To introduce the process of performing charity.
D. To criticize unjust motives and results for charity.

第一节：阅读表达(共5小题;每小题2分，满分10分)
阅读短文，并按照题目要求用英语回答问题。
I have a special place in my heart for libraries. I have for as long as I can remember. I always had ardour in reading, sometimes reading up to three books a day as a child. Stories were like air to me and while other kids played ball or went to parties, I lived out adventures through the books I checked out from the library.
My first job was working at the Ukiah Library when I was 16 years old. It was a dream job and I did everything from shelving books to reading to the children for story time.
As I became a mother, the library took on an added meaning. I had several children and books were our main source of entertainment. It was a big deal for us to load up and go to the local library, where my kids could pick out books to read or books they wanted me to read to them. It was a special time to bond with my children and it filled them with the wonderment of books. Now, I see my children taking their children to the library and I love that the excitement of going to the library lives on from generation to generation.
As a novelist, I’ve found a new relationship with libraries. I encourage readers to go to their local library when they can’t afford to purchase a book. I see libraries as a safe haven (避风港) for readers and writers. Libraries, in their own way, help fight book piracy (盗版行为) and I think all writers should support libraries in a significant way when they can. Encourage readers to use the library. Share library announcements on your social media. Frequent them and talk about them when you can.
