* After the fire, what now?
Bishop Patrick Chauvet, Notre Dame （巴黎圣母院）'s manager,
admitted that the famous building would close for "five to six years" as he
spoke with local business owners Wednesday. He added that it was unclear
what the church's 67 employees would be doing in the future. French
President Emmanuel Macron said Tuesday that he wanted the church rebuilt
in five years.
* What are the new rules?
While tourists can't go inside the site itself, the area still may prove popular to those paying their respects.
Visitors are welcome to write messages of support in both the main and local city halls.
The island that houses the church has been closed and the people there have been evacuated since the fire.
Paris businessmen who depend on Notre Dame tourism are worried about the church's future as well as their
own.
* .
It's known that spring is a busy time for tourists in Paris. The travel company recommends people visit
other places, like the Basilique Saint-Denis, the Sacre-Coeur and so on. Those who tend to observe church
services during Holy Week are advised to go to Saint-Eustache.
* Looking ahead to rebuilding
It seems rebuilding can begin, since firefighters put out the fire early Tuesday, more than 12 hours after
nearly 400 firefighters had battled the flames that changed the city's skyline. Two policemen and one firefighter
were not badly injured, according to the Paris Fire Service.
A large campaign to raise money already is underway to rebuild the church. Up to Wednesday, donations
came to $1 billion.
21. What does the underlined word "evacuated" mean?
A. removed B. examined C. accused D. ruined
22. Which of the following subtitles can fill in the blank?
A. Saint-Eustache is favored by tourists.
B. Tour companies offer other choices.
C. Church culture develops fast in Paris.
D. The best time to visit Paris is spring.
23. According to the passage, what will happen after the fire?A. The government will arrange work for 67 employees.
B. Visitors will be forbidden to leave messages anywhere.
C. Churches in Paris will also be examined and repaired.
D. More money will be donated for the rebuilding project.
B
A team of Israeli scientists "printed" a heart with a patient's own cells first in the world, researchers say.
Past researchers had been able to print simple tissues （生物组织）without blood vessels （血 管），the
team said. The new development is the first time "anyone anywhere has successfully engineered and printed an
entire heart filled with cells, blood vessels and so on," Tai Dvir of Tel Aviv University told The Jerusalem Post.
Dvir and his team reported the findings Monday in Advanced Science. The heart, about the size of a rabbit's,
is too small for a human, but the process used to create it shows the potential for one day being able to 3D-print
pieces and maybe full transplants （移植），the team said. Because the heart is made from the patient's own
biological material, it reduces the chance that the transplant would fail, according to the research paper. The team
used fatty tissues, then separated and "reprogrammed" the materials. The cells that become heart cells were then
created.
The development is being praised as a "major breakthrough" in medicine and one that could help battle
heart disease, the leading cause of death in the United States, according to the U.S, Centers for Disease Control
and Prevention. "Patients will no longer have to wait for transplants or take medicines to prevent their side effects,
Tel Aviv University said in a statement. ''Instead, the needed hearts, lungs etc. will be printed, fully personalized
for every patient." The research is still a long way off from clearing the way to transplant the 3D-printed hearts
into humans, the team says.
Dvir told the news organization Bloomberg that the heart the team printed will need another month before
cells develop full to beat. Tests on animals would need to be done before the technology could be tried in humans,
he added. It would take a whole day and billions, rather than millions, of cells to print a human heart, Dvir told
Bloomberg.
But Dvir remains hopeful. "Maybe, in 10 years, such printers will be seen and used in the finest hospitals
around the world," he told The Times of Israel.
24. Why is the heart transplant less likely to fail?
A. Because the number of heart donators has been increasing.
B. Because the transplant technology has been improved.
C. Because the heart is created with the receiver's own cells.
D. Because every hospital has easy access to such printers.
25. What can we infer about the 3D-printed heart?
A. This heart can be transplanted into humans immediately.
B. This heart has been printed just for rabbits due to the size.C. It made heart transplant much less difficult than before.
D. The new technology hasn't gained much praise in medicine.
26. Dvir's attitude towards the future of the technology is_________.
A. positive B. worried C. doubtful D. unclear
27. What is the text mainly concerned with?
A. The personalized heart transplant.
B. Heart 3D-printed using human cells.
C. A scientist discovering a new technology.
D. Heart disease, the leading cause of death.
C
In 2009 a group of parents in Lymington started sharing worries about their children's money-management
skills. Pocket money was now stored in a building society rather than a piggy bank （储蓄罐）；household
shopping was done online; the children rarely saw their parents handling cash. They were spending online, too.
Money had become intangible. How, then, were children to learn its value?
The answer they came up with was GoHenry, an app now available in America as well as Britain. It is
designed to help young people learn good spending habits through real-world money activities. Parents sign up
with their own bank accounts and pay a monthly fee of £2.99 or $3.99 for each child aged six or over. Adults and
children download separate versions. Parents can schedule pocket money and set chores. When those are marked
as done, the child is paid the agreed amount. Parents can see what the child has bought and where. And they can
choose where the card can be used: in shops, online or at ATMs.
Children get cards printed with their name. They can put money in savings pots, view their spending and
balances, and set savings targets. “They could decide to save ten dollars for a friend's birthday in four weeks'
time, or set a goal at 12 to have $2,000 to buy a car at age 18," says Dean Brauer, one of GoHenry's founders.
4tThe app tells them how much to save each week to meet their goal."
A big benefit of such apps is that they inspire family conversations about money. According to the latest
research, more than half of British parents find the subject hard to discuss with their children. And yet most agree
that children's attitudes to money are formed in their early years.
Some GoHenry customers are wealthy parents who worry that their children will grow up with little
knowledge of money. Others have slim incomes but regard the app as a preparation for their child's future. Some
say that they have been in debt and want their children to avoid that mistake when they grow up; others that the
app is cost-effective because their children learn to plan spending. Even though young people no longer touch
and hold money, they can still be taught to handle it well.
28. What does the underlined sentence suggest?
A. Money no longer existed physically.
B. Money was spent by children.
C. Money took on a fashionable look.D. Money became less valuable.
29. What is the purpose of GoHenry app?
A. To update people's idea of money.
B. To educate kids on money management.
C. To promote parent-kid relationship.
D. To build up wealth in American families.
30. How do parents or children benefit from GoHenry?
A. Parents monitor children's using of money.
B. Children have freedom to earn extra money.
C. Parents lend much money to children in relief.
D. Children turn to saving instead of spending.
31. What is the best reason for the popularity of GoHenry among parents?
A. It brings to the table the topic of money.
B. It trains kids to deal with money wisely.
C. It ensures a successful future for children.
D. It makes it possible for kids to get wealthy.
D
Look out of the window of your workplace. Is the view pleasing? Can you see trees and grassy areas, or
rubbish bins? Do you enjoy leaving the building at lunchtime or would you rather stay in your office?
Indoor work environments (in particular factors like light, noise and temperature) have an effect on working
quality. Attractive offices, with common areas and relaxing activities, will appeal to businesses and workers. If
a positive office indoor environment helps, it makes sense that a nice outdoor one should do the job, too.
Those who work in a big city are complaining about crowded conditions, surrounded by busy roads. But
there are exceptions. Cheswick Park in west London is the kind of area that local people like to frequent on their
days off. It has its own waterfall and lake, where ducks have settled, and there are tree-shaded lawns where one
can picnic on sunny summer days. The actively minded can head for a special area to play basketball or football.
The autumn brings firework shows and when the weather is good, the site holds food fairs, concerts or other
events.
During the week, however, 9,000 people flood into the park's 12 office buildings. They are home to 73
businesses, including big companies like Paramount and Sony.
Anyone who has visited the main office of a tech company will be surprised to find comfortable chairs, pool
tables and even guitars or bikes for hire, like those in a big hotel. The worry about such services is that they aim
to keep employees in the office for as long as possible. If you can eat, go to the gym and even get your dry
cleaning done at work, why go home?
The danger, as with many aspects of the future economy, is of another class divide. In addition to fat pay
checks, well-decorated offices with top-class services located in attractive parks for the fortunate few who program for big tech groups or run large companies; dissatisfying jobs in "'satisfying centers" and busy roads
outside for the rest. On the bright side, office workers in the latter will at least still have a reason to head home.
32. Why does the writer raise those questions in paragraph 1?
A. To encourage readers to find answers all by themselves.
B. To point out the trouble in improving working conditions.
C. To attract readers' attention to the topic of the article.
D. To remind readers to share their comfortable offices.
33. What is special about Cheswick Park?
A. It is regarded as local people's favorite park.
B. Indoor events and ball games can be held here.
C. Its unique natural beauty is beyond compare.
D. Employees enjoy a pleasing environment here.
34. What is the problem with the satisfying offices?
A. Employees are eager to give up family life for work.
B. Employees feel superior to those in regular offices.
C. Employees get cheated into working with less salary.
D. Employees experience differences in social positions.
35. What can be a suitable title for the text?
A. An office with a view B. An unusual business park
C. A call for office services D. A new style in decoration

corporate identity (企业形象)of the company.

different companies. It is important, therefore, for a company to distinguish itself from its competitors by having
a strong company image which is immediately recognizable.

colours represent life in one culture but death in another. International companies have, therefore, to make sure
that their logos will not be misunderstood or misinterpreted in different countries.
The logos of large international companies are instantly recognizable throughout the world. 54 The design
of the words "Coca Cola" has not changed since 1886, although the surrounding design has been changed from
time to time.
Companies need to have a strong corporate identity. The logo helps to promote this image and to fix it in
the minds of the consumers. 55 A. One of the most famous logos is that of Coca Cola.
B. Colour isn't a strictly visual element; it's very psychological.
C. In different cultures, different colours carry different meanings.
D. Logos, therefore, need to be original and to have impact and style.
E. There was a time when Coca Cola was struggling a bit with brand recognition.
F. Obviously the quality of a product does, but visual images contribute a great deal.

Sports benefit us in many ways. First, sports can make us fit and strong. When taking part in sports, we
get the change to train almost all parts of our bodies. Second, when we're in a low spirit, taking part in sports can
help us forget our worries. Finally, sports can teach us some lessons about life. Through participation, we know
that we not only struggle for ourselves, but also fight for our team.
But sometimes sports can also bring us some trouble. It's especially true when we cannot plan our activities
properly. Too much exercise may make us exhausted.
I'm fond of sports because I not only gain a well balanced life through sports, but also get more chances to
make more friends, to move closer to nature. Sports add happiness to my everyday life when I participate in them
in a proper way.

Dear friends,
Our school produces a lot of rubbish every day, such as leftover food, waste paper and plastic bottles, which
brings a wide range of environmental problems as well as the waste of resources. Therefore, it's time we took
immediate action to change the situation.
First of all, it is necessary for us to raise awareness of environmental protection and develop the good habit
of garbage sorting. What's more, we should voluntarily differentiate recyclable rubbish from non-recyclable in
our daily life.
In a word, if everyone does his bit responsibly in garbage sorting, our school will become better and better.
