Waterpebble: Saving water one drop at a time
Waterpebble is a harmless and trendy Eco-gadget designed to help raise awareness regarding how much water is being used while in the shower, and to help decrease that amount so gradually that it’s practically undetectable. The goal is to make saving water fun and easy while bringing its importance to the forefront.
Inventor:
Paul Priestman is the innovative mind behind Waterpebble and was originally inspired by a hotel bathroom sign that read, “Please Use Water Sparingly（俭省地）.”
Usage:
The Waterpebble is a small round device that has three light indications of red, orange and green. They indicate, respectively, “Too much”, “Just enough” and “Well done — you’re saving the planet” .Simply place Waterpebble in the bottom of the shower and it records the length of your showers. From that point on it starts gradually encouraging you to reduce your shower time by flashing the appropriate light. If you let it go all the way to red, then you have exceeded（超过）the amount of time of your shower. If you stop showering at green, you have kept your shower at six minutes or less and have beat your record.
Effects:
Families who use Waterpebble can look forward to low water fees on their future water bills. It is a clever and environmentally-friendly way to make the process of saving water more instinctive. Waterpebble is not only encouraging people to use less water, but also helping people to become educated about conservation. Families report that their kids love the idea of playing a role in protecting the planet and without being constantly reminded. Waterpebble is being praised as a constructive device that allows people to ease into water conservation in a way that is enjoyable and educational.

56. According to the passage, Waterpebble ________.
A. was initially used in a hotel bathroom
B. helps users predict the exact price they will pay for water
C. gets users to save water unconsciously

57. When using Waterpebble, you ________.

B. need put it beside the shower before showering
C. should stop showering when its light turns orange
D. have to control your shower time at less than 6 minutes

In the U.S. we are raised to appreciate the accomplishments of inventors and thinkers — creative people whose ideas have transformed our world. We celebrate the famously imaginative, the greatest artists and innovators from Van Gogh to Steve Jobs. Viewing the world creatively is supposed to be a valuable quality, even a virtue. Online job boards burst with ads recruiting（招收）“idea people” and “out of the box” thinkers. We are taught that our own creativity will be celebrated as well, and that if we have good ideas, we will succeed.
It’s all a lie. This is the thing about creativity that is rarely acknowledged: Most people don’t actually like it. Studies confirm what many creative people have suspected all along: People are biased（有成见的）against creative thinking, despite all of their insistence otherwise.
“We think of creative people in a heroic manner, and we celebrate them, but the thing we celebrate is the after-effect,” says Barry Staw, a researcher at the University of California. Staw says most people are risk-averse and he refers to them as satisfiers. “As much as we celebrate independence in Western cultures, there is an awful lot of pressure to conform（墨守成规）,” he says. Satisfiers avoid stirring things up, even if it means giving up the truth or rejecting a good idea.
All of this negativity isn’t easy to digest, and social rejection can be painful in some of the same ways physical pain hurts. But there is a glimmer of hope in all of this rejection. A Cornell study makes the case that social rejection is not actually bad for the creative process — and can even accelerate it. The study shows that if you have the sneaking（暗中的） suspicion you might not belong, the act of being rejected confirms your interpretation. The effect can liberate creative people from the need to fit in and allow them to pursue their interests.
Perhaps for some people, the pain of rejection is like the pain of training for a marathon training the mind for endurance. Research shows you’ll need it. Truly creative ideas take a very long time to be accepted. The better the idea, the longer it might take. Even the work of Nobel Prize winners was commonly rejected by their peers for an extended period of time.
Most people agree that what distinguishes those who become famously creative is their resilience（复原力）. While creativity at times is very rewarding, it is not about happiness. Staw says a successful creative person is someone “who can survive conformity pressures without being influenced by social pressure” . To live creatively is a choice. You must make a commitment to your own mind and the possibility that you will not be accepted. You have to let go of satisfying people, often even yourself.
58. What is the lie mentioned in Paragraph 2?
A. That people appreciate creativity very much.
B. That people are biased against creative thinking.
C. That people insist on doing everything creatively.
D. That people are taught to transform our world when young.
59. Which of the following is typical of “satisfiers”?
A. They are easily pleased.
B. They celebrate independence.
C. They tend not to like sudden changes.
D. They are always prepared to take risks.
60. According to Staw, successful creative people ________.
A. tend to sacrifice personal happiness for their career
B. will have to face reality sooner or later
C. tend to make their own choices
D. seldom give in to social pressure
C
Dear Seth,
You’re only three years old,and at this point in your life you can’t read, much less understand what I’m going to try to tell you in this letter.But I've been thinking a lot about the life that you have ahead of you,about my life so far as I reflect on what I've learned,and about my role as a dad in trying to prepare you for the trials that you will face in the coming years.
You are young,and life has not yet to show a cold face to you,to throw disappointments and loneliness and pain into your path.You have not been worn down yet by long hours of thankless work.by the slings and arrows of everyday life.
For this,be thankful.You are at a wonderful time of life.You have many wonderful stages of life still to come,but they are not without their costs and risks.
I hope to help you along your path by sharing some of the best of what I’ve learned.As with any advice,take it with a grain of salt.What works for me might not work for you.
Life can be cruel
There will be people in your life who won't be very nice.They’ll tease you because you’re different.or for no good reason.They might try to bully you or hurt you.
There’s not much you can do about these people except to learn to deal with them,and learn to choose friends who are kind to you,who actually care about you,who make you feel good about yourself.When you find friends like this,hold on to them,treasure them,spend time with them,be kind to them,love them
There will be times when you are met with disappointment instead of success.Life won’t always turn out the way you want.This is just another things you’ll have to learn to deal with.But instead of letting these things get you down,push on.Accept disappointment and learn to persevere,to pursue your dreams despite pitfalls.Learn to turn negatives into positives,and you’ll do much better in life.
You will also face heartbreak and abandonment by those you love.I hope you don’t have to face this too much,but happens.Again,not much you can do but to heal,and to move on with your life.Let these pains become stepping stones to better things in life,and learn to use them to make you stronger.
But be open life anyway
Yes,you’ll find cruelty and suffering in your journey through life...but don’t let that close you to new things.Don’t retreat from life,don’t hide or wall yourself off.Be open to new things,new experiences,new people.
You might get your heart broken 10 times,but find the most wonderful woman the 11th time.If you shut yourself off from love,you'll miss out on that woman,and the happiest times of your life.
You might get teased and bullied and hurt by people you meet … and then after meeting dozens of jerks,find a true friend.If you close yourself off to new people,and don't open your heart to them,you'll avoid pain … but also lose out on meeting some incredible people,who will be there during the toughest times of your life and create some of the best times of your life.
You will fail many times but if you allow that to stop you from trying,you will miss out on the amazing feeling of success once you reach new heights with your accomplishments.Failure is a stepping stone to success.
Life isn’t a competition
You will meet many people who will try to do better than you,in school ,in college,at work.They’ll try to have nicer cars,bigger houses,nicer clothes,cooler gadgets.To them,life is a competition--they have to do better than their peers to be happy.
Here’s a secret:Life isn’t a competition. If you spend that journey always trying to impress others,to outdo others,you’re wasting your journey.Instead,learn to enjoy the journey.Make it a journey of Happiness,of constant learning,of continual improvement,of love.
Don't worry about having a nicer car or house or anything material,or even a better-paying job.None of that matters a whit,and none of it will make you happier.You'll acquire these things and then only want more.Instead,learn to be satisfied with having enough-and then use the time you would have wasted trying to earn money to buy those things … use that time doing things you love.
Finally, know that I love you and always will. You are starting out on a weird, scary,daunting,but ultimately incredibly wonderful journey, and I will be there for you when I can. Godspeed.

Films are so much a part of our lives that it’s hard to imagine a world without them. We enjoy them in theatres, at home, in offices, in cars and buses, and on airplanes.
① For about 100 years, people have been trying to understand why this medium has so attracted us. Films communicate information and ideas, and they show us places and ways of life we might not otherwise know. Important as the benefits are, though, something more is at stake. Films offer us ways of seeing and feeling that we find deeply satisfying. They take us through experiences. The experiences are often driven by stories, with characters we come to care about, but a film might also develop an idea or explore visual qualities or sound textures. A film takes us on a journey, offering a patterned experience that engages our minds and emotions.
② Films are designed to have effects on viewers. Late in the 19th century, moving pictures emerged as a public amusement. They succeeded because they spoke to the imaginative needs of a broad-based audience. All the traditions that emerged－ telling fictional stories, recording actual events, animating objects or pictures, experimenting with pure form－aimed to give viewers experiences they couldn’t get from other media. The men and women who made films discovered that they could control aspects of cinema to give their audience richer, more engaging experiences. Learning from one another, expanding and refining the options available, filmmakers developed skills that became the basis of film as an art form.
③ The popular origins of cinema suggest that some common ways of talking won’t help us much in understanding film. Take the distinction between art and entertainment. Some people would say that blockbusters(大片) playing at the multiplex are merely “entertainment”, whereas films for a narrower public－perhaps independent films for festival fare, or specialized experimental works－are true art. Usually the art / entertainment split carries a not-so-hidden value judgment: art is high-brow, whereas entertainment is superficial. Yet things aren’t that simple. As we just indicated, many of the artistic resources of cinema were discovered by filmmakers working for the general public. During the 1910s and 1920s, for instance, many films that aimed only to be entertaining opened up new possibilities for film editing. As for the matter of value, it’s clear that popular traditions can promote art of high quality. Cinema is an art because it offers filmmakers ways to design experiences for viewers, and those experiences can be valuable.
④ Sometimes, too, people treat film art as opposed to film as a business. This split is related to the issue of entertainment, since entertainment generally is sold to a mass audience. Again, however, in most modern societies, no art floats free of economic ties. Novels good, bad, or indifferent are published because publishers expect to sell them. Painters hope that collectors and museums will
acquire their work. True, some artworks are funded through taxes or private donations, but that process, too, involves the artist in a financial transaction(交易). Films are no different. Others are funded by patronage or public moneys. Even if you decide to make your own digital movie, you face the problem of paying for it－and you may hope to earn a little extra for all your time and effort.
The crucial point is that considerations of money don’t necessarily make the artist any less creative or the project any less worthwhile. Money can corrupt any line of business (consider politics), but it doesn’t have to. In Renaissance Italy, painters were commissioned by the Catholic church to illustrate events from the Bible. Michaelangelo and Lenonardo da Vinci worked for hire, but it would be hard to argue that it hurt their artistry.
Here we won’t assume that film art prevents entertainment. We won’t take the opposite position either－claiming that only Hollywood mass-market movies are worth attention. Similarly, we don’t think that film art rises above commercial demand, but we also won’t assume that money rules everything. Any art form offers a vast range of creative possibilities. Our basic assumption is that as an art, film offers experiences that viewers find worthwhile.
66. Where should the sentence “It doesn’t happen by accident.” be put in the passage?
A. ① B. ② C. ③ D. ④
67. Which of the following statements about film is TRUE?
A. Hollywood films are usually far more appealing.
B. Film offers a wide variety of creative possibilities.
C. Films are made in the hope that consumers will pay to see them.
D. When watching films, viewers feel controlled by film designers.
68. The writer uses the examples of Michaelangelo and Lenonardo da Vinci to ______.
A. indicate that money is unlikely to corrupt artistry[来源:学科网]
B. show that money doesn’t necessarily destroy artistry
C. prove that money cannot buy everything in the field of art
D. suggest that money is an important concern even for famous artists
69. According to the writer, film should ______
A. avoid concentrating on popular traditions
B. focus on artistry rather than entertainment
C. provide the audience with something worthwhile
D. earn enough to pay for the developers’ time and effort
70. Which of the following can be the proper title for the passage?
A. Film: art or business B. Art or entertainment
C. Film offers us experiences D. Money doesn’t rule everything

请阅读短文，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：每个空格只填一个单词。请将答案写在答题卡上相应题号的横线上。
Everyone has periods in their lives when everything seems very hard, when there’s nobody to talk to and the mood is just getting worse and worse. But why sit and think how pathetic (可怜的) you are? There are some things that may help you lift up your mood. If it fails you, at least while
doing these things you won’t have time to think of your problems. You win anyway!
The first thing you should try is socializing and thinking positively. It’s very hard, because usually when we feel depressed we lock ourselves at home and try to think about all the bad character issues we have. But if you try to force yourself and call a friend for a cup of coffee, the chances for changing your mood into better are very good. Just try to avoid bad thoughts. Instead, try to think only about the bright side of your life. Don’t forget: We are what we think we are.
You should also try doing something only for yourself, something totally selfish. This could be something you wanted for a long time: maybe a short trip, a coat, a ring or anything that could lift up your mood. This doesn’t have to be costly. The point of all this is being good to yourself. Besides giving presents to yourself, buying things to others may be a perfect way to feel happy. Think of your friends, family, relatives or even local charities, choose one person and give him a gift. Making another person feel happy will make you feel good in your heart and mind.
Try to concentrate on the present and future to make your life better in every possible way. Most bad moods and mental attitudes are the result of something that happened to us in the past. It is vital to your mind, soul, body and your life on the whole that you stay in the present with all your thoughts and feelings.
If you have too much time, volunteer it. We usually think that the problems we have are huge, although if you try to go to hospital, you’ll see that there are a lot of people who have more severe problems. Moreover, you’ll see that people are still working, smiling and laughing. This kind of work will definitely help you understand that your problems are very small and maybe even funny.
Don’t forget to be creative! Creating doesn’t include only painting or playing an instrument, it also includes cooking, sewing, writing, photographing and many other activities. While concentrating on creating, you will forget how you have been feeling.
All you have to do is to take control of your emotions and make them positive instead of letting them control you. Making yourself feel better isn’t that hard. It’s hard only to start doing something that would lift up your mood.
Title: Lift up Your Mood

第七部分：书面表达
One possible version:
With the economic development of our country, the quality of our natural/ecological environment has turned into an important issue, which arises from various reasons.
The world population is rocketing up so sharply that the overgrowth of it poses a threat to the existence of human society. At present, people lay more emphasis on the economy than on environmental preservation, consequently bringing about the overuse of natural resources and furthermore polluting the environment by way of chemicals production.
Given the circumstances, strict legal measures should be taken. As President Xi Jinping puts it, “We should protect ecological environment like protecting our eyes and also treat it the way we treat
our lives” and people should not only be further educated on the importance of environmental preservation but also heighten the awareness that they should protect the environment and build the economy at the same time (Textbook P31.) Only in this way can an environmentally sustainable development be promoted.
On a personal note, in all walks of life, we should try every means to conserve natural resources, such as recycling as much waste as possible, consuming as few disposable products as we can and exploiting renewable energy. We still have a long way to go to address all the issues, but all the joint efforts of the government and people will be appreciated for years to come by future generations.

M: Hey, Joanne. What’s up? Are you heading to the beach, too?
W: I’m trying to get there as fast as I can. I need to deposit some money at the bank and mail some letters at the post office. But first, I’ve really got to find a ladies’ room!
Text 2
W: Have you looked in the mirror today?
M: Uh, not since I woke up this morning… Why? Did I forget to do my hair or something?
W: Well, let’s just say that green ties and pink shirts don’t really mix…
Text 3
M: I’m starving! What have you got to eat around here?
W: Um, not much. I really wasn’t expecting anyone over, so…
M: All you have in here is some salad and one of those health drinks that only girls drink…
W: Look. I don’t show up at your door without calling and criticize your food, do I?
Text 4
W: Do you have any idea what time it is now? Have you ever heard your phone?
M: I’m sorry. But my phone ran out of power. I got back here as fast as I could because I knew you’d be worried.
Text 5
W: Hi, James! It’s me, Diane. Oh, I’m so glad I caught you. I was just talking to Drake, and…
M: I’m sorry. But I think you dialed the wrong number. My name is Daniel.

W: Hi, welcome to Burger Palace. Can I take your order, please?
M: Yeah. Two bacon cheeseburgers and two orders of fries, please.
W: All right. Would you like anything to drink with that?
M: No, thanks. We’ve got sodas at home.
W: So, that’s going to be to go, right?
M: That’s right.
W: OK. Your total is $17.
M: Here’s a twenty. Keep the change.
W: Oh, thank you so much! You are Number 255. Your order should be ready in about five minutes.

M: Can you see how close we are on the map?
W: It looks like we’re pretty close, but these smart phone maps are hard to read.
M: Yeah, I always prefer to look at a paper map. I think I still have some in the pocket of the right door, if you wanna grab one…
W: No, I’d probably be even worse at that. Uh-oh, I think you were supposed to turn left back there.
M: You mean that you were supposed to tell me to turn left back there?
W: Yeah, I’m sorry. I don’t have one of these kinds of phones, so I’m afraid I don’t really know what I’m doing. Do you want to pull over and take a look?
M: No. It’s okay. Just push that little button on the side of the phone to turn on the sound. That will allow us to hear the directions out loud.

W: Hey, are you watching YouTube?
M: Yeah. I love all the funny videos that people post.
W: Have you ever seen the YouTube show Epic Meal Time(《超级开饭时间》)?
M: Uh, no. I didn’t know YouTube had shows. I thought it was only home videos and music videos…stuff like that.
W: Well, YouTube also has channels, just like regular TV. There are many different kinds of shows every week. Most of them are shorter and cheaper to make than regular TV, though.
M: YouTube is even cooler than I thought! So, what’s Epic Meal Time?
W: There’s a group of guys who make the unhealthy meals they can possibly cook. Everything has bacon on it. Most things are fried, and there is a ton of cheese on everything. We’re talking tens of thousands of calories in one meal! In this show, the main guy introduces the meal, and then you see them shopping for the ingredients. You watch them cook everything. And at the end, they all eat it with their friends!

W: Brett, can I ask you a question about your dog ?
M: Sure. What’s up?
W: Well, I have to get my little Ferguson some medicine.
M: Oh, is everything all right?
W: Yes, of course. It’s not like he’s sick or anything. I give him medicine every month as part of his regular care, so he doesn’t get any diseases from insects or other dogs.
M: Oh, right. I do that for Fargo, too.
W: Yeah. That was what I was going to ask you about. Where do you buy your dog’s medicine? I asked my vet, and she told me the prices. I almost dropped dead right there!
M: Yeah. Unfortunately, most special pet stores sell them at fixed prices that are set by the companies that make them. You can usually find discounts of ten or fifteen percent for a lot of
those stores, though.
W: Well, that’s not a huge help for something that’s two hundred dollars per year! Isn’t there any other way?
M: Well, you can order some medicines from websites that are based in other countries where the prices are lower.

This is the Lakewood Public Address System. This is not a test like the one we had last week. I repeat, this is not a test. The Western Hill Fire is spreading toward Lakewood much quicker than we had expected. Currently, we expect the fire to come within twenty miles of Lakewood by six o’clock this evening. We are therefore requiring all residents to leave this area immediately.
Springfield to the north, Point Cabina Station to the east, and Galveston to the south are all in the safe zone. It will take less than thirty minutes to drive to any of these towns. Take as many things as you can fit in your car, but do not delay. We have orders from the state police to make sure that the entire town of Lakewood is empty by five o’clock today. You have plenty of time to get all your family members, pets, and belongings together, so there is no need to panic. Stay calm, but get started as soon as possible.
