George
Washington
Carver
was
born
some
time
in
the
early-mid
1860s.
A
sickly
child,
Carver
was
unable
to
work
in
the
fields,
so
he
did
gardening.
He
was
left
with
many
free
hours
to
walk
in
the
woods
—
beginning
his
career
with
nature.
He
soon
became
known
as
the
“Plant
Doctor”
and
would
help
friends
and
neighbors
manage
sick
plants.
In
1890,
Carver
began
to
study
music
and
art
at
Simpson
College.
His
artwork
was
on
show
at
the
1893
World’s
Fair.
Painting
gave
him
the
chance
to
combine
his
two
loves
—
art
and
nature.
Yet
it
was
his
talents
(天赋)
for
gardening
that
took
him
in
another
direction
in
1891.
Carver
became
the
first
African-American
to
attend
what
is
today
Iowa
State
University.
He
proved
to
be
a
first-class
student
and
upon
graduation
he
became
the
school’s
first
African-American
teacher.
In
1896,
he
received
an
invitation
from
Tuskegee
Normal
and
Industrial
School
in
Tuskegee,
Alabama.
Upon
arriving,
he
found
that
the
school
was
short
of
money
so
Dr.
Carver
had
to
equip
his
own
lab.
He
and
his
students
would
search
trash
heaps
(垃圾堆)
for
things
to
use.
This
proved
that
Dr.
Carver
was
well
ahead
of
his
time.
In
1916,
he
published
a
research
report
on
peanuts,
which
helped
many
farmers
turn
to
peanuts
as
a
cash
crop
and
saved
the
economy
(经济)
of
the
South
when
it
was
destroyed
by
the
cotton
insects
attack.
Carver
continued
his
research
with
the
peanut.
He
went
on
to
find
many
uses
for
the
peanut.
But
he
didn’t
invent
peanut
butter
(花生酱).
Dr.
Carver’s
research
earned
him
much
worldwide
praise.
Dr.
George
Washington
Carver
died
on
January
5,
1943,
and
was
buried
at
Tuskegee.
Carver
contributed
his
whole
life
savings
to
Tuskegee.
Upon
his
death,
Franklin
D.
Roosevelt
gave
him
this
title
“an
inspiring
example
to
youth
everywhere.”
24.
How
was
Carver’s
childhood?
A.
He
dreamed
of
being
a
doctor.
B.
He
grew
crops
in
the
fields.
C.
He
enjoyed
good
health.
D.
He
took
up
gardening.
25.
How
was
Carver’s
performance
during
his
education?

Bad.
B.
Strange.
C.
Ordinary.
D.
Excellent.
26.
What
do
we
know
about
Carver’s
life
in
Tuskegee
Normal
and
Industrial
School?
A.
He
was
well
paid
by
the
school.
B.
He
relied
on
himself
to
build
his
lab.
C.
He
saved
money
by
picking
up
trash.
D.
He
published
his
findings
ahead
of
time.
27.
What
can
be
learned
about
Carver’s
report
on
peanuts?
A.
It
made
a
contribution
to
the
economy.
B.
It
included
new
findings
on
peanut
butter.
C.
It
prevented
peanuts
from
insects
attacking.

helped
farmers

There
are
big
cultural
differences
between
the
US
and
the
UK,
despite
(尽管)
having
many
similarities.
People
talk
differently,
and
not
just
in
the
accent
or
the
words,
but
the
general
meaning.
Americans
are
very
friendly.
They
will
talk
to
strangers
in
a
store,
laugh
with
someone
at
a
bar,
and
help
their
neighbours
as
necessary.
Many
expats
(移居海外者)
have
reported
difficulty
in
making
really
close
friends
like
they
had
in
the
UK.
The
friendliness
is
only
on
the
surface.
Many
Americans
are
very
family-centered.
Family
life
includes
endless
school
musicals,
after-class
sports,
birthday
parties
and
the
like.
Many
new
expats
report
exhaustion
trying
to
keep
up
with
all
the
things
to
do
with
the
kids
when
they
come
to
the
US.
Most
Americans
have
never
been
abroad.
The
United
States
is
a
huge
country.
Go
and
look
at
a
map
of
the
US
to
get
an
idea.
Many
Americans
feel
they
simply
haven’t
seen
enough
of
their
own
country
to
consider
travelling
abroad
to
see
another
country.
In
addition,
many
people
just
don’t
get
enough
holiday
time
to
make
it
worthwhile
travelling
abroad,
with
holiday
or
“vacation”
time
often
being
as
low
as
7-10
days
a
year,
and
sometimes
that
includes
sick
days.
Most
Americans
are
proud
of
Scottish
or
Irish
or
German
or
Italian
ancestry,
even
if
it
has
been
centuries
since
anyone
in
their
family
lived
abroad.
Many
Americans
like
to
remember
this
not
because
they
like
the
old
country
but
because
they
like
to
show
that
their
family
came
from
immigrants
(移民)
who
dreamed
of
a
better
life
in
America.
By
pointing
out
that
fact,
many
feel
they
are
meeting
their
ancestors’
wishes
and
dreams.
Making
friends
can
be
daunting.
While
for
some
in
their
20s,
they
can
reach
out
to
those
who
are
also
just
starting
out
and
form
some
lifelong
friendships,
for
some
who
are
older,
in
their
30s
and
40s,
with
kids
and
a
family,
meeting
others
can
be
difficult.
28.
What
do
expats
think
of
Americans?
A.
They
are
ready
to
help
others.
B.
They
seem
to
be
friendly
to
others.
C.
They
are
fond
of
working
with
foreigners.
D.
They
easily
make
close
friends
with
others.
29.
Why
do
most
Americans
seldom
travel
abroad?
A.
They
have
short
holiday
time.
B.
They
are
short
of
money
for
trips.
C.
They
think
it
worthless
to
travel
abroad.
D.
They
like
their
own
country’s
scenery
better.
30.
Why
are
most
Americans
proud
of
their
British
ancestry?
A.
They
love
the
old
country.
B.
They
appreciate
British
culture.
C.
They
think
their
ancestors
had
made
history.
D.
They
think
they’re
realizing
their
ancestors’
dreams.
31.
What
does
the
underlined
word
“daunting”
in
the
last
paragraph
probably
mean?
A.
Discouraging.
B.
Interesting.
C.
Surprising.
D.
Exciting.
D
Whenever
I
talk
about
personality
in
relation
to
choosing
a
career,
some
people
complain
(抱怨)
like
this:
Those
tests
are
so
stupid.
When
I
was
in
sixth
grade,
I
took
one
of
them
and
it
said
that
I
should
be
a
farmer.
While
I
don’t
think
I
would
be
a
very
good
farmer,
the
results
are
probably
a
lot
more
accurate
(精确的)
than
I’d
like
to
admit.
At
the
time,
it
seemed
unreasonable
—
I
hated
the
outdoors
and
physical
activities.
Now,
I
think
it
might
have
had
some
points
that
fit
my
personality:
I
like
planning
(good
for
planning
how
to
grow
crops),
working
by
myself
(for
those
long
days
on
an
agricultural
machine),
and
sometimes
working
on
a
team
(for
harvest
time).
Watch
out
for
any
personality
test
that
claims
(声称)
to
be
able
to
tell
you
what
your
dream
job
is
by
the
type
of
animal
you’d
like
to
be,
or
from
your
favorite
breakfast
food
as
a
child.
While
there
are
many
personality
assessments
(评估)
that
are
accurate,
I’d
like
to
say
that
they
are
a
second
step.
The
best
choice
is
self-assessments.
Before
finding
ways
to
know
your
work
preferences,
it’s
important
to
make
a
clear
difference
between
liking
a
topic
and
liking
the
work.
I
once
met
a
third-year
marine
(海洋的)
biology
student
at
a
large
state
school
in
Ohio.
He
was
placed
into
the
Whale
Watch
program,
where
he
found
out
that
he
became
violently
seasick
on
any
kind
of
boat
—
a
big
disadvantage
for
a
student
who
thought
he
wanted
to
study
whales
in
the
wild.
The
best
match
is
a
career
in
which
the
major
tasks
of
the
work
are
the
tasks
you
most
enjoy
doing
and
the
topic
is
one
of
interest.
If
that
career
doesn’t
exist,
my
advice
would
be
to
take
the
job
where
there
is
a
skill
match.
In
this
way,
you
will
succeed
at
the
basic
tasks
of
your
job
and
perhaps
become
interested
in
it.
32.
What
is
some
people’s
opinion
on
choosing
a
career
through
personality
tests?
A.
It’s
possible
to
lead
to
career
failure.
B.
It’s
helpful
only
in
a
limited
way.
C.
It’s
unreasonable.
D.
It’s
worth
a
try.
33.
What
does
the
author
think
of
the
personality
test
she
took
when
she
was
young?
A.
She
admits
it
forecasts
her
present
job
accurately.
B.
She
thinks
it
shows
some
part
of
her
personality.
C.
She
finds
it
helpless
for
her.
D.
She
has
little
interest
in
it.
34.
What
is
the
best
way
to
know
your
dream
job?
A.
Taking
personality
tests
on
your
favorite
things.
B.
Doing
accurate
personality
assessments.
C.
Trying
your
dream
job
in
practice.
D.
Finding
it
out
by
yourself.
35.
Why
was
the
marine
biology
student
unsuitable
for
his
job?
A.
He
disliked
the
job.
B.
He
felt
sick
traveling
on
a
boat.
C.
He
was
afraid
of
marine
animals.
D.
He
knew
little
about
his
preferences.
第二节(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)
根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
What
does
it
really
mean
to
be
successful?
36
.
It
is
about
being
able
to
live
a
happy
life.
If
you
want
to
have
a
successful
life,
here
are
three
things
you
need
to
focus
on.
1.
Believe
in
yourself
If
you
don’t
believe
in
yourself,
how
do
you
expect
other
people
to?
When
you
believe
in
yourself,
it
fuels
(促进)
your
creativity
and
your
motivation
(动力)
to
do
things.
All
successful
people
from
Gandhi
to
Tesla
believed
in
themselves.
37
.
We
all
have
to
trust
that
we
have
the
ability
to
turn
the
impossible
into
the
possible.
2.
Know
your
intention
38
,
it
is
important
to
have
an
understanding
of
your
intention.
If
your
intention
is
simply
rooted
in
money
and
fame,
you
are
never
going
to
truly
feel
successful.
Money
and
fame
only
serve
the
ego
(自负)
and
don’t
provide
true
feelings
of
success.
For
a
truly
successful
life,
your
intention
has
to
be
rooted
in
your
purpose
and
passions
(热情).
When
your
intention
is
to
serve
your
purpose,
make
a
change
in
the
world
and
express
your
talents,
you
will
feel
true
success
and
satisfaction.
3.
39
Success
is
all
around
you
right
now.
Stop
to
take
a
moment
and
you’ll
notice
the
amazing
success
that
is
already
present
in
your
life.
40
.
Being
thankful
for
the
tiniest
successes
in
life
will
help
you
to
create
more
and
more
success.
A.
Realize
you
are
already
successful
B.
Discover
the
true
meaning
of
success
C.
This
is
what
gave
them
the
drive
to
succeed
D.
If
you
want
to
create
a
good
living
condition
E.
When
it
comes
to
achieving
greatness
in
this
life
F.
That
is
when
you
will
start
to
feel
truly
successful
G.
Success
is
so
much
more
than
just
money
or
fame
第三部分:语言知识运用(共两节,满分45分)
第一节(共20小题;每小题1.5分,满分30分)
阅读下面短文,从短文后各题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中,选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。
I
was
a
single
parent,
raising
my
four-year-old
son
Daniel
in
Perth,
Australia
with
all
my
family
based
on
the
other
side
of
the
country.
41
the
support
of
my
sisters,
aunties,
uncles
or
grandparents,
being
on
my
own
was
terribly
42
.
Because
my
son’s
father
lived
in
Perth,
I
couldn’t
move
to
live
with
my
family.
43
Daniel’s
father
didn’t
see
him
often,
it
was
important
for
him
to
be
geographically
close
to
his
dad.
Money
was
tight
(拮据的),
and
with
almost
no
44
,
I
often
felt
45
and
hopeless.
One
night,
after
a
busy
day
at
work,
I
raced
to
Daniel’s
childcare
centre
to
46
him
on
time.
After
dinner,
we
went
outside
so
Daniel
could
ride
his
bicycle.
47
his
Batman
costume,
he
was
energetic
as
he
48
proudly
through
Claremont
towards
the
river.
At
the
same
time,
I
walked
alongside
feeling
weighed
down.
I
tried
to
keep
a
cheerful
face,
but
inside
I
was
49
.
When
we
got
to
the
river
we
walked
down
the
pier
(码头).
There
was
an
older
man
50
at
the
end
and
I
had
a
slight
51
that
Daniel
would
disturb
his
52
and
quiet
by
making
noise,
so
I
told
him
to
be
quiet.
As
we
53
,
the
man
turned,
smiled
and
asked,
“How’s
Batman
this
evening?”
Daniel
54
told
the
man
that
Batman
was
good,
thanks,
before
asking
about
the
fish.
I
55
good
behavior,
and
had
been
afraid
we
might
be
disturbing
the
man.
56
I
couldn’t
have
been
more
wrong.
The
kind
man
57
with
my
son,
and
watching
their
conversations
made
my
eyes
58
.
This
lovely
old
gentleman
was
so
59
and
truly
interested
in
Batman,
my
little
boy,
that

One
of
my
favourite
things
to
do
in
my
free
time
is
to
do
voluntary
works.
I’ve
volunteered
for
a
variety
of
difference
organisations.
The
activities
include
simple,
everyday
ones
like
giving
our
city
square
a
cleaning
and
take
dogs
for
walks
at
an
animal
rescue
centre.
By
volunteering,
I’ve
not
only
gained
valuable
experience
and
also
built
confidence
in
talking
about
strangers.
I
was
used
to
be
a
shy
person,
but
my
volunteering
experience
gave
us
the
opportunity
to
meet
new
people.
Doing
an
activity
I
wouldn’t
normal
do
with
other
volunteers
made
me
had
a
really
fun
time.
These
are
just
few
of
the
reasons
why
I
think
volunteering
is
worthwhile.

A
In
the
past
few
weeks
Richard
Eckersley
has
noticed
a
change
in
people
who
come
into
his
shop.
The
previous
(以前的)
Manchester
United
footballer,
who
turned
his
back
on
the
game
to
set
up
the
UK’s
first
“zero
waste”
store
on
Totnes
High
Street
in
Devon,
says
it
is
no
longer
only
environmentalists
who
came
in,
looking
for
a
cleaner
way
to
shop.
“A
lot
of
new
people
are
coming
in.
We
are
getting
calls
every
week
from
around
the
country
from
people
wanting
to
set
up
something
similar
in
their
towns,”
says
Eckersley,
who
set
up
the
Earth.Food.Love
shop
with
his
wife
Nicola
in
March
2017.
More
than
200
miles
away,
Ingrid
Caldironi
shares
the
enthusiasm.
She
set
up
the
plastic-free
(无塑料的)
Bulk
Market
in
east
London.
“We
have
had
an
amazing
response,”
she
says.
Eckersley
and
Caldironi
are
at
the
head
of
an
anti-plastic
movement
in
the
UK
that
has
been
fuelled
by
newspaper
investigations
including
The
Guardian’s
Bottling
It
series
and
The
Blue
Planet
television
series.
But
their
enthusiasm
is
not
shared
by
big
supermarkets,
which
have
no
interest
in
reducing
their
plastic
waste.
“For
a
nation
of
shopkeepers
we
are
falling
behind
in
this
race,”
says
Sian
Sutherland,
founder
of
the
campaign
A
Plastic
Planet
which
led
the
calls
for
plastic-free
goods
shelves.
Wandering
through
supermarkets
where
everything
is
covered
in
plastic,
Sutherland
says
action
rather
than
words
is
needed.
Her
co-founder
Frederikke
Magnussen
explains
the
origins
of
their
campaign.
“It
started
with
two
unreasonable
women
who
wanted
choice
—
and
supermarkets
are
all
about
choice,
right?
I
can
buy
sugar-free,
fat-free,
African
food,
Asian
food,
yet
if
I
want
to
buy
plastic-free
it
is
impossible
for
me
to
do
so.”
Eckersley
says,
“After
Willow,
my
daughter,
was
born,
it
made
me
think
about
what
future
lies
ahead
for
her.
I
wanted
to
say
that
I
at
least
tried,
and
I
wanted
to
make
a
difference.”

Eckersley’s

B
It
was
in
2004
that
I
decided
to
build
a
garden
at
Charlton
Manor
Primary
School.
I’d
seen
the
news
reports
about
children
lacking
(缺乏)
knowledge
of
where
their
food
came
from
and
felt
that
we
as
a
society
had
been
separated
from
food.
The
reason
for
this
was
clear
to
me:
we
were
no
longer
educating
our
children
about
food
in
schools.
I
saw
a
garden
as
a
chance
for
the
children
to
learn
in
a
real
way.
I
also
wanted
to
use
it
to
cover
topics:
life
cycles,
flowering
plants,
creative
writing
and
report
writing.
I
believed
that
plenty
of
subjects
could
be
well
taught
in
a
garden,
while
increasing
pupils’
activity
levels
and
encouraging
teamwork.
With
many
teachers
facing
explanations
from
children
such
as
“It
wasn’t
my
fault”
and
“It
wasn’t
only
me”,
here
was
our
chance
to
develop
a
sense
of
responsibility.
It
hasn’t
all
been
plain
sailing
(一帆风顺)
though.
At
the
beginning,
we
tried
hard
to
get
some
of
the
teachers
on
board,
because
of
concerns
that
behavioural
problems
would
worsen
—
because
if
they
couldn’t
trust
the
children
in
the
classroom,
wouldn’t
they
be
worse
outside?
But
once
those
teachers
started
making
use
of
the
garden
there
was
recognisable
behaviour
change
in
those
pupils.
The
children
worked
as
a
team
and
took
responsibility
for
growing
the
plants.
We
needed
to
think
about
funding
(资金),
too.
I
know
other
schools
that
have
taken
different
routes
to
support
such
projects
—
finding
parent
and
grandparent
volunteers
or
someone
with
a
knowledge
of
gardening
who
are
ready
to
share
their
skills
and
support
teachers.
Community
is
a
big
thing
for
us.
Products
from
the
garden
are
sold
in
the
school
shop,
run
by
the
children
on
weekdays.
We’ve
also
begun
selling
products,
such
as
tomatoes,
potatoes,
eggs
and
honey
to
parents
and
others,
and
a
local
restaurant
and
Borough
Market
in
central
London,
helping
us
to
channel
(引导)
funds
back
into
the
garden.
The
research
of
the
Food
Growing
in
Schools
Taskforce
makes
clear
the
advantages
of
school
gardens:
learning,
increased
understanding
of
the
natural
environment.
It
has
also
shown
that
outdoor
learning
can
add
value
to
everyday
experiences
in
the
classroom.
I’d
agree.
The
garden
has
provided
wonderful
learning
chances
for
the
children.
It
has
brought
the
community
together.

students

from

One
possible
version:
Dear
Mr.
Smith,
I’m
sorry
to
hear
the
column
Cartoon
will
be
deleted
from
our
school
English
newspaper.
I’d
like
to
express
my
opinion.
First
of
all,
this
is
really
a
popular
column
among
us
students.
The
funny
drawings
and
humorous
language
make
learning
English
more
interesting.
Moreover,
it
has
been
part
of
our
English
newspaper
for
years
and
we
have
got
used
to
enjoying
it
every
time
we
get
the
newspaper.
Deleting
it
will
make
many
students
lose
interest
in
our
newspaper.
Since
everybody
likes
it,
why
not
let
it
remain?
I
hope
you
will
consider
my
suggestion.
I’m
looking
forward
to
your
early
reply.
Yours
sincerely,
