We had a glass studio, which was located 50 feet from our home. A couple of years ago we experienced an38 winter; we had a lot of snow and ice. The weight of the ice and snow 39 the roof on our studio, taking with it one of our sources of income. 40 it did fall down, we got on the roof and tried to41 the snow and ice, but when you have 5 feet of ice and temperatures of minus 20 Celsius, it was pretty 42 to do.
We had a partner come in to help us try to 43 the roof by supporting. In the end, there was44 that could be done. The roof came down.

We picked the 48option. We had a large barn that we were not using. So we renovated(翻新) the barn, redesigned our working area and today we have a nicer studio than we 49 had.

（B）
In an unmanned supermarket, a customer waits to pay. With the use of advanced digital payment technology, including biological recognition and in-depth learning, the man leaves in a minute. There’s no cashier in the store. At a large university, students use a hand-scanning machine that authorizes their entry into the gym. Those people are using “smart machines” which identify people by their physical characteristics. These new devices use fingers, hands, faces, eyes and voices. Some machines may even use smells. This new technology, called biometrics, gets information from parts of the body.
In the past, biometric machines were used mainly in government agencies or in prisons. But now that the cost of the technology is lower, these machines are starting to be used everywhere, from border services to schools.
Some people, however, are concerned that these machines will mean the destruction of personal privacy. They worry that the machines will get personal information about them. “I know it seems like these machines are invading our privacy, but actually, biometric machines help to protect it,” says Jay Tarkett, who works at a company that develops the machines. “They can be used instead of passwords on a computer, for example. They can also identify criminals at airports. So, really, they help to promote public safety, and all the information stored is kept confidential by the machine itself.”
Some people don’t like the idea of using fingerprints because they associate them with criminals, and feel like they are being accused of something. In addition, they don’t work for some people, such as bricklayers, who wear down their fingerprints. Yet, face recognition does workwell because the subject doesn’t really have to do anything. To cash a check at a bank, for example, the customer has to do nothing more than look at a machine similar to an automatic teller. If the face matches the picture kept on file, the customer gets the money with no problems. The need to carry identification with you from place to place, then, would all but cease.
14
It has been found that the hand scan works well in the college gym. Before this machine was used, students at the college entered the gym using cards similar to credit cards. The problem was that students often lost or forgot their cards. With the hand-scanning machine, however, the problem was solved right away.
But the machines are still new, and there can be problems. For example, voice recognition works on the phone, but it is not precise, and can be tricked. Another constraint（限制）wenotice, with machines that use face recognition in particular, is that they can be fooled if people color their hair or gain a lot of weight. However, this particular problem may be solved by a new type of technology that scans a person’s iris, the colored part of the eye. It can even identify the person from a few feet away, recognizing a customer as he or she approaches the ATM.
54. What’s the author’s intention by presenting two examples in Paragraph 1?
A. To bring in the topic of the passage.
B. To stress how smart machines work.
C. To show the popularity of smart machines.
D. To introduce the convenience smart machines offer.
55. What is the author’s attitude towards the new technology?
A. Bitter. B. Worried. C. Satisfied.D. Optimistic.
56. What is the passage mainly about?
A. An introduction to biometric machines.
B. An advertisement for biometric machines.
C. A brief description of hand scanning machines.
D. An analysis of biometric machines’ value in economy.
（C）
Many of us remember being in awe(敬畏) when we saw cloned dinosaurs running wild in the film Jurassic Park. And the idea of using technology to revive(恢复) extinct species has long fascinated not only writers and directors, but scientists as well.
According to The Telegraph, woolly mammoths(长毛猛犸象), which featured in the popular Ice Age animated movie series, “may walk the earth once more” now that scientists have taken another step toward realizing a long-held dream—recreating their DNA.
Mammoths became extinct around 10,000 years ago. However, since the discovery of near-perfect preserved remains in Arctic permafrost(北极冻土带) in May 2013, a variety of research studies have been carried out since.
Geneticists from HarvardUniversity analyzed DNA from the remains, looking for genes which separated mammoths from elephants, such as hairiness and ear size. They then used the results to reproduce exact copies of 14 mammoth genes. “It is the first time that mammoth genes have been alive—although so far it has only been done in the lab,” George Church, lead researcher of the project, told the Sunday Times.
Church then used a new technique which allows scientists to edit DNA carefully, replacing sections of elephant DNA with the mammoth genes. So “we now have functioning elephant cells with mammoth DNA in them,” he said.
However, Church ruled out the possibility of bringing the mammoths back to life via cloning from frozen remains. He said he “preferred to focus on rebuilding the full mammoth genome(基因组) by analyzing DNA from preserved remains and putting it into the cells of its closest living relative – the Asian elephant,” reported The Telegraph.
14
Church argued that the return of the woolly mammoth—or rather, the return of something very similar—could help bring back fragile(脆弱的) ecosystems. However, some scientists believe that bringing back the mammoth would be unethical.
Professor Alex Greenwood, an expert on ancient DNA, said: “We may face the extinction of African and Asian elephants. Why bring back another elephant from extinction when we cannot even keep the ones that are not extinct around?” he told the Sunday Times. “What is the message? We can be as irresponsible with the environment as we want. Then we’ll just clone things back?”
“Money would be better spent focusing on conserving what we do have than spending it on an animal that has been extinct for thousands of years,” he said.
57. We can learn from the article that ______.
A. cloned mammoths followed cloned dinosaurs to get revived
B. George Church and his colleagues tried to reproduce mammoth DNA
C. the technology to revive mammoth genes is already mature
D. Church and his team managed to list all the genes that separate mammoths from elephants
58. According to Church, what is the significance of his study?
A. It could help prevent the extinction of the Asian elephant.
B. It could help people better tell elephant DNA from mammoth genes.
C. It could help bring back some extinct species and save fragile ecosystems.
D. It could help bring mammoths back to life via cloning from frozen remains.
59. The underlined word “unethical” in Paragraph 7 is closest in meaning to ______.
A. impractical B. misled C. unacceptable D. illegal
60. According to the article, Professor Alex Greenwood believes that _______.
A. the return of the woolly mammoth would help to balance ecosystems
B. it’s more important to protect present species than to bring back extinct ones
C. there is no need to worry about the extinction of African and Asian elephants at present
D. it’s necessary to bring back species that are beneficial to human beings from extinction
（D）
My grandmother Rosalind Einhorn was born exactly fifty-two years before I was, on August 28, 1917. Like many poor Jewish families in New York City, hers lived in a small, crowded apartment close to their relatives. Her parents, aunts and uncles addressed her male cousins by their given names, but she and her sister were referred to only as “Girlie”.
During the Depression, my grandmother was pulled out of Morris High School to help support the household by sewing fabric flowers onto undergarments that her mother could resell for a tiny profit. No one in the community would have considered taking a boy out of school. A boy’s education was the family’s hope to move up the financial and social ladder. Education for girls, however, was less significant both financially, since they were unlikely to contribute to the family’s income, and culturally, since boys were expected to study the Torah while girls were expected to run a “proper home”. Luckily for my grandmother, a local teacher insisted that her parents put her back into school. She went on not only to finish high school but to graduate from U.C. Berkeley.
After college, “Girlie” worked selling pocketbooks and accessories at David’s Fifth Avenue. When she left her job to marry my grandfather, David’s had to hire four people to replace her. Years later, when my grandfather’s paint business was struggling, she jumped in and took some of the hard steps he was unwilling to take, helping to save the family from financial ruin. She displayed her business ability again in her forties. After being diagnosed (诊断)with breast cancer, she beat it and
14
then devoted herself to raising money for the clinic that treated her by selling some watches. Girlie ended up with a profit that Apple would envy. I have never met anyone with more energy and determination than my grandmother.
When my grandmother had children of her own — my mother and her two brothers — she emphasized education for all of them. My mother attended the University of Pennsylvania. When she graduated in 1965 with a degree in French literature, she surveyed a workforce that she believed consisted of two career options for women: teaching or nursing. She chose teaching. She began a Ph. D. programme, got married, and then dropped out when she became pregnant with me. It was thought to be a sign of weakness if a husband needed his wife’s help to support their family, so my mother became a stay-at-home parent and an active volunteer. The centuries-old division of labor stood.
Even though I grew up in a traditional home, my parents had the same expectations for me, my sister, and my brother. All the three of us were encouraged to do well in school, do equal routine tasks, and participate in after-school activities. We were all supposed to be athletic too. My brother and sister joined sports teams, but I was the kid who got picked last in gym, despite my athletic shortcomings. I was raised to believe that girls could do anything boys could do and that all career paths were open to me.
When I arrived at college in the fall of 1987, my classmates of both genders seemed equally focused on academics. I don’t remember thinking about my future career differently from the male students. I also don’t remember any conversations about someday balancing work and children. My friends and I assumed that we would have both. Men and women competed openly and aggressively with one another in classes, activitiesand job interviews. Just two generations removed from my grandmother, the playing field seemed to be level.
But more than twenty years after my college graduation, the world has not evolved nearly as much as I believed it would. Almost all of my male classmates work in professional settings. Some of my female classmates work full-time or part-time outside the home and just as many are stay-at-home mothers and volunteers like my mom. This mirrors the national trend. In comparison to their male counterparts（相同能力者）, highly trained women are scaling back and dropping out of the workforce in high numbers.
61. Why were the writer’s grandma and her sisters called “Girlie”?
A. They had not yet got their given names.
B. They were highly valued by their elders.
C. They were regarded as less important than boys.
D. They shared apparent similarities in many ways.
62. What conclusion can we draw about the writer’s grandmother?
A. She was full of ideas for solving various problems.
B. She was an extraordinarily able and tough woman.
C. She benefited greatly from her family background.
D. She had special ways of teaching her own children.
63. What might people think when the writer’s mother gave up her job?
A. It was quite normal for a woman like her to do so.
B. Her freedom of choice ought to be well respected.
C. Her job should be taken over by a younger person.
D. It was a real shame about her losing that good job.
64. From the description of the writer’s own life, we can see ________.
14
A. great expectations in the students’ minds
B. innocent friendship between boys and girls
C. positive attitudes to work and competitions
D. seeming social progress in certain aspects
65. By writing the passage the writer intends to reveal ________.
A. the necessity of women’s education
B. the importance of women’s liberation
C. the existence of gender discrimination
D. the lives of three generations of women

第四部分任务型阅读(共10小题；每小题1分，满分10分）
请认真阅读下列短文，并根据所读内容在文章后表格中的空格里填入一个最恰当的单词。注意：每个空格只填1个单词。请将答案写在答题卡上相应题号的横线上。
When was the last time you read a book or a magazine article? Do your everyday reading habits centre around updates on the Internet? In case you are one of innumerable individuals who don’t make a habit of reading consistently you may be passing up a great opportunity: Reading has a noteworthy number of advantages and only a couple of advantages of reading are recorded below.
Everything you read fills your head with new bits of information and you never know when it might be useful to you. The more knowledge you have, the better- equipped you are to overcome any challenge you’ll ever face. Additionally, here’s a bit of food for thought: Should you ever find yourself in terrible circumstances, remember that although you might lose everything else — your job, your possessions, your money, even your health — knowledge can never be taken from you.
At the same time, the more you read, the more words you gain exposure to, and they’ll surely make their way into your everyday vocabulary. Being able to express your ideas clearly in words is of great help in any profession and knowing that you can speak to higher-ranking people with self-confidence can be a great encouragement to your self-esteem (自尊). It could even aid in your career as those who are well-read, well-spoken, and knowledgeable on a variety of topics tend to get promotions more quickly (and more often) than those with smaller vocabularies and lack of awareness of literature, scientific breakthroughs, and global events. Reading books is also vital for learning new languages, as non-native speakers gain exposure to words used in context, which will improve their own speaking and writing fluency.
When you read a book, you have to remember a lot of characters, their backgrounds, ambitions, history as well as the various plots that weave their way through every story. That’s a fair bit to remember, but brains are wonderful things and can remember these things with relative ease. Amazingly enough, whenever you remember something new, new synapses are formed and existing ones are strengthened. How cool that is!
No matter how much stress you have at work, in your personal relationships, or countless other issues faced in daily life, it all just slips away when you lose yourself in a great story. A well-written novel can transport you to other realms (领域）while an interesting article will distract you and keep you in the present moment , letting tensions drain away and allowing you to relax.
You Should Read Every Day

书面表达：
A possible version:
Nowadays many young people have some misunderstanding about friendship.
Some say they will make friends with those who can often stay with them. Some think if a person can eat out with them, he or she is a friend. Others argue that someone who can help them escape punishment when they make a mistake is a friend.
Personally, I don’t agree with the above opinions. What makes a really good friend then? First, your friend must be honest. They must always tell you the truth, even when the truth might not be what you want to hear. Second , a friend should be helpful and always willing to lend a hand . Favors should be done with gladness. Next, true friends respect each other. A friend should treat you the way they want to be treated. Also, sharing some interests is pretty important when it comes to friendship. Last but not least, a friend should be kind and should love you for who you are.

W: Thank you to all the competitors. I won’t say much because I know you’re all anxious to hear the results — it was a very difficult decision and I’ll start with the band which came in fourth. That’s Texas Team, who are the youngest group here today. Unfortunately, the violinist played so quietly that we couldn’t hear him. So bad luck to Texas Team. Third was Eastside. They are such good dancers they should enter for a dance competition. And with a bit more practice on the music they’ll do very well. In second place is Third Avenue. They did well, especially their young guitarist, but the singer looked so unhappy we thought maybe he didn’t want to win! Never mind — you nearly won, so better luck next time. Congratulations to The Storm who are our winners today. The singer had such a great voice that we had to give them first place. Well done.
