B We’ve all had cases where we’ve waited just a bit too long to pay an electric bill or speeding ticket ． But one man, from California by reasonable assumption, who goes by “Dave”, recently took procrastination (拖延) one step further, by paying a parking ticket almost a half-century after it was given． In December 2018, the Minersville Police Department in Pennsylvania received a letter in the mail．Whoever wrote the letter decided it was best to keep his name somewhat unknown, so he put the return address as “Wayward Road, Anytown California” under the name “Feeling guilty”． When the officers opened the envelope, they found a brief letter, along with a $5 bill, and a parking ticket dating all the way back to 1974．The note read, “Dear PD, I’ve been carrying this ticket around for 40 plus years always intending to pay．Forgive me if I don’t give you my info．With respect, Dave.” Even though the initial parking ticket was only for $2, “Dave” must have felt awfully guilty because he left 150 percent, or $3, in interest． Michael Combs, the Police Chief of the Minersville Police Department, stated in an interview that the same ticket would cost about $20 if it was given today. Combs went on to share that the original ticket from 1974 was given to a vehicle that had an Ohio license plate． Because there was no system for tracking tickets given to out-of-state cars back then, “Dave” could have gotten away with never paying the $2 fine．But apparently, guilt got the best of him, and he decided to finally cough up the money more than 40 years past its due date．3 19. How much do we know about “Dave”? A. He lives in Wayward Road, Anytown California． B. The police are trying to find out more about him． C. His car probably came from Ohio at that time． D. “Dave” is of course the man’s real name indeed． 20. Why didn’t “Dave” pay for the parking ticket until recently? A. He completely forgot about it in the past 44 years． B. He didn’t find it until almost half a century later． C. He failed to find out who he should pay the money to． D. He didn’t pay for it just because of procrastination． 21. What drove “Dave” to pay for the parking ticket at last? A. A strong sense of guilty． B. Fear of being tracked by the police． C. Worry about being fined more． D. Sudden change of his financial situation． 22. Which of the following can be the best title? A. Police Chief of the Minersville Police Department Shares a Story B. Mysterious Procrastinator Finally Pays 44-Year-Old Parking Ticket C. Unusual Letter Comes from Wayward Road, Anytown California D. Parking Ticket Carried Around for Almost Half a Century from Ohio C My summer hols wr CWOT. B4, WE USED 2go 2 NY 2C my bro, his GF & thr 3 :-@ KIDS FTF. ILNY, its gr8. Can you understand this sentence? If you can’t, don’t feel too bad: neither could the middle school teacher in England who received this as homework. This is Netspeak: the language of computerized communication found on the Internet or cellphones. To newcomers, it can look like a completely foreign language. School teachers and parents say this new form of writing is harming (破 坏 ) the English language. Increasing spelling and grammatical mistakes can be seen in students’ writ ing. They fear the language could become corrupted (面目全非的). Everyone should just relax, say linguists (语言学家). They believe Netspeak is in fact more of a good thing. David Crystal, from the University of Wales, argues that Netspeak and Internet create a new language use and the almost lost art of diary writing has been picked up again. Geoffrey Nurnberg, from Stanford University, agrees. “People get better at writing by writing,” he says. “Kids who are now doing text messaging, e-mail, and instant messages will write at least as well as, and possibly better than, their parents.” Linguist James Milroy says, for centuries, it is believed without exception that young people are harming the language. And when today’s teenagers become tomorrow’s parents, they too will think this way. Milroy argues that languages do not and cannot become “corrupted”; they simply change to meet the new needs. However, Netspeakers do agree that it is important to teach young people how to speak and write Standard English. Cynthia McVey says, “I can understand Netspeak worries teachers and it’s important that they tell their pupils that text messaging is for fun, but that learning to write proper English is a must for their future.” 23. What is the purpose of the first paragraph? A. To give the main idea. B. To lead in the topic.4 C. To compare an example. D. To raise a question 24. Who can understand the Netspeak in England? A. Middle school teachers. B. Parents. C. Linguistics. D. Teenagers. 25. Who believes Netspeak users can help improve writing? A. Cynthia McVey B. David Crystal C. Geoffrey Nurnberg D. James Milroy 26. What’s James Milroy’s attitude toward Netspeak? A. Positive. B. Negative. C. Doubtful. D. Worried. D Australian magpies can understand what other birds are saying to each other, a new study has found. The research, published in the journal Animal Behaviour, says the magpie has learned the meanings of different noisy miner calls and essentially eavesdrops(偷听) to find out which predators(食肉动物) are near. Noisy miners—a small, native honeyeater—have different warning calls for ground-based and aerial(飞 行的) predators. By playing both kinds of recording to a series of wild magpies, researchers observed the magpies raising their beaks(喙) to the sky, or dropping their heads to the ground. Researchers attracted the magpies with cheese, then played the noisy miner calls, videotaping the results. As a control, they also rolled a large orange ball towards the magpies to see how they ordinarily tilted(倾斜) their beaks to ground threats, and threw the ball to see how they reacted to aerial threats. The researchers recorded an average maximum beak angle of 29 degrees for the thrown ball, and an average maximum of nine degrees when it was rolled. The miners’ aerial warning caused an average maximum beak angle of 31 degrees, and the ground warning caused an average maximum of 24. One of the study’s authors, Dominique Potvin, said the magpies showed an astonishing level of insight. Magpies and miners broadly face the same types of predators and the two frequently live in the same ecosystem. Potvin said this had encouraged the magpies’ learned behaviour. Magpies are generally found on the ground and noisy miners are generally found up in trees. It pays for the magpie to pay attention to somebody who has a better view of predators than they do.” She said it was unclear whether other birds could do the same, but it was highly likely other magpies around Australia already did. “Magpies are a pretty smart group. We're not sure if they’re learning this from other magpies or if they're figuring it out on their own, but the ability is there.” As part of the experiment, researchers also played a third call: a common, non-warning call from a crimson rosella. They found the magpies did not respond. Potvin said that we had been actively exploring animal cognition(认知) research. “It's a good piece of the puzzle，” Potvin said. “Looking at the social relationships between species that live in communities.” 27. What have the researchers found about Australian magpies? A. They can understand other bird calls. B. They can communicate with noisy miners. C. They have a special preference for cheeses D. They have the ability to warn the predators. 28. How did the researchers get their findings? A. By calculating the beak angles of aerial and ground predators.5 B.By comparing the magpie and the miner responses to threats. C. By monitoring the magpie responses to the miner warning calls. D. By recording the magpie louder scream for other birds' attention. 29. The magpies' cognition can help them . A．have a better view of the predators than the miners B．better protect themselves from the potential threats C．cooperate with other birds to drive away the predators D．live in harmony with other birds in the same ecosystem 30. We can learn from the passage that . A. the magpies are smart learners of other birds' behaviour B. it's likely that other birds have developed the same ability C. the findings have clarified the relationships between species D. a lot more remains to be explored about animal cognition 第二节（共 5 小题；每小题 2 分，满分 10 分） In a study recently published in the journal Neuron, researchers found that super memorizers don’t have unusually large brain regions that allow them to remember a lot of information. ___31___ Here are a few of their favorite tricks that can help you to remember things in your everyday life. To Remember: New words Technique: Change routine In a study, a group of students studied a list of words in two separate sessions. Some studied in a messy room ant some in a neat space. One group of students spent both sessions in the same room, while the other split the sessions between the two environments. During a test, the students who studied in multiple places remembered much more. ___32___ That includes the time of day, the music in the background, whether you sit or stand, etc. To Remember: Your PIN Technique: Count it out You could use your birthday, or your phone number, but identity thieves have a way of figuring those numbers out. ___33___ Write a four- word sentence. Then count the number of letters in each word. For instance, “This is my PIN” =4223. To Remember: Faces Technique: Focus on noses While some super memorizes specialize in associating names with faces, the memory-palace technique doesn’t work as well if the image of the face is changed in any way. Rather than focusing on eyes, as most people do, focus on the centre or to the left of a person’s nose. ___34___ To Remember: Facts & figures Technique: ___35___ To learn and remember statistics, reviewing the material repeatedly over a longer time is far more effective than repeating it in a shorter one. If your exam is in a week, study today and then again in a day or two. If it’s a month away, study today and then wait a week before your second session. A. value exams B. Give yourself time C. This allows you to take in their whole face. D. Their brain structures are in fact the same as the rest of ours. E. Instead, try this tip from Dominic, an eight-time World Memory Champion. F. The theory is that your brain links the words to the environment around you. G. Studies showed that varying other aspects of your environment can also help. 第三部分 英语知识运用（共两节，满分 35 分）6 第一节 完形填空（共 20 小题，每小题 1.5 分，满分 30 分） 阅读下面短文，掌握其大意，然后从 36—55 各题所给的四个选项（A、B、C 和 D）中，选出最佳选 项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。 Life is colorful.
