Researchers have shown that remaining sitting for extended periods of time (like at your 9-to-5 desk job) can do harm to your health. While exercise is a big part of reducing the harmful effects of sitting, it was unclear how many gym periods were needed to help – until now.‎ A new study, published in The Lancet, shows the ideal formula for reducing the negative effects of a sedentary（久坐的）job. Instead of a fixed number of hours spent exercising, the ratio（比率）depends on how much you sit: people who work a typical eight-hour day should spend at least one hour each day moving. If you sit six hours a day, you should spend half an hour exercising. The research also indicates that the exercise doesn’t have to be all once – or rigorous（严格的）. It can be spread throughout the day and be as simple as walking.‎ The team behind the study analyzed data from a pool of a million adults over the age of ‎45 in Western Europe, the United States, and Australia. Using previous data, the researches examined data from 16 published studies and used it to determine how much exercise is required to compensate for sitting. Their recommended daily exercise goal is higher than previous advice but not necessarily less achievable, given it can be completed throughout the day.‎ Fitting in an hour of exercise a day sounds especially discouraging if you have a desk job, but there are plenty of workouts you can complete before and after work. Even if it means taking a ‎ ‎10-minute walk during lunch, your body will thank you in the long run.‎ ‎21. The underlined words “compensate for” can be best replaced by ________.‎ A. make up for B. break away from C. give up D. take the place of ‎22. According to the new study, good news for the people working long hours at desk is that ________.‎ A. workouts may reduce the harm of sitting for long B. the harm of sitting for long has been proved C. they don’t have to exercise as long as suggested previously D. the time spent on exercise is flexible ‎23. What can be inferred from the article?‎ A. The best form of workouts is walking.‎ B. The longer you exercise, the better.‎ C. The new exercise goal is practical though higher.‎ D. A desk job makes it impossible to exercise regularly.‎ ‎24. The second paragraph is developed mainly ________.‎ A. by example B. by process C. by comparison D. by contrast B Do companies need a strong leader to stay competitive? Many would say “yes, definitely”, but the employees of one Swedish software consultancy company would tell them otherwise. They don’t have a CEO. Nobody tells anyone what to do, instead, all the 40 employees have meetings and decide together.‎ Crisp has become world famous for not having a boss. Hoping to get its employees more involved, it moved on to change its chief executive officer (CEO) annually, but ultimately, the 40-strong staff decided to scrap the position altogether.‎ Well, it turns out that not having a boss, and being involved in decision making has made Crisp’s 40 employees more responsible and motivated. And even if someone does make a bad call at some point, it’s definitely not the end of the world.‎ According to the BBC, the unique Swedish company is apparently set up more like a family – ‎ nobody tells anyone what to do, but the unspoken understanding is that “you don’t mess up the house”.‎ Crisp does hold four-day meetings for the whole staff two or three times a year, when they decide on things that affect everyone, like changing their headquarters, but generally, company employees are encouraged to make their own decisions. They also have a company board, a legal requirement in Sweden, which acts as a last resort, in case something goes horribly wrong.‎ So far, the “no CEO” experiment has gone surprisingly well. Henrik Kniberg, an organizational coach at Crisp, claims that not having to ask the boss to approve project decisions or budgets means that things happen a lot faster and the company can respond to clients quicker.‎ However, Kniberg stresses that not having to ask the CEO’s permission about stuff doesn’t remove employees’ responsibility to consult with their colleagues and explain their decisions. However, some CEOs believe that the idea only works in small startups, because it would be too chaotic（混乱的）in large organizations.‎ ‎25. What can we learn from the text?‎ A.T here was no CEO in the company from the very beginning.‎ B. Everyone in the company is the boss.‎ C. Every employee takes turns to take charge of Crisp.‎ D. The company board was founded for more than legal purpose.‎ ‎26. Crisp’s practice without a boss is successful because ________.‎ A. it has encouraged every staff member to contribute to the company B. it has helped its employees avoid making mistakes C. it has made Crisp world famous in the competitive environment D. it has saved money otherwise paid to the CEO ‎27. It can be inferred from the text EXEPT that ________.‎ A. Crisp’s successful way may not be popularized in a big company B. making quick decisions is an advantage in business C. employees in Crisp have to discuss with each other D. Crisp’s employees are actually relatives ‎28. Which factor may NOT contribute to a company’s success according to the text?‎ A. Quick response to its clients.‎ B. Employees’ responsibility.‎ C. A company’s scale（规模）.‎ D. Employees’ motivation.‎ C When you’re siting at your computer, do you work attentively all day? Or do you allow yourself to become distracted now and again…to open a few extra tabs, check social media, read a spot of news, maybe catch up on some celebrity gossip, and look at some…‎ Stop! You’re “cyberloafing”. The word is a combination of “cyber”, which means “related to computers”, and “loafing”，which means “relaxing in a lazy way”.We do it, and we do it a lot. A study from the University of Texas suggests we are guilty of this form of delay for 14% of our working day. On a Friday afternoon, I expect it’s more than that.‎ I’ll admit to it. In fact I’ve already done it in the course of writing this story. OK, more than once.‎ But it’s a slippery slope. It can damage your productivity and even your career. Because according to the University of Texas research, each time a worker gets distracted by the Internet it takes an average of 23 minutes to get back to work.‎ More than that, cyberloafing has a dark side, according to a report published in The Journal of Psychosocial Research on Cyberspace. It argues that cyberloafing is connected to several negative personalities. People who cyberloaf are more likely to be self-interested and self-admired. Furthermore, people with these personalities are less likely to feel sorry about avoiding work, and less concerned about getting caught.‎ Why do we do it? For some, it’s undoubtedly an escape from the continuous boredom of what they’re supposed to be doing. Or a way of avoiding handling that ever growing tasks. Some might get a feeling of satisfaction finding a great deal online. But overall, it’s something that takes you away from what you’re actually being paid to do, or paying to do: if you’re a student.‎ When you have the whole world of the Internet at your fingertips, it’s hard to resist.‎ ‎29. The first paragraph is meant to ________.‎ A. introduce the topic B. summarize the main idea C. describe the phenomenon D. arouse the readers’ interest ‎30. What attitude does the writer hold towards cyberloafing?‎ A. Indifferent. B. Incurable. C. Concerned. D. Supportive.‎ ‎31. What is the writer likely to continue to talk about?‎ A. The best way to stop cyberloafing.‎ B. How to improve your efficiency.‎ C. How to get rid of online addiction.‎ D. How to avoid being caught by your boss when cyberloafing.‎ D Yahoo’s sheer size, popularity, and reputation for not having security practices as excellent as its competitors may have made the Internet company an ideal target for Russian spies, according to experts.‎ ‎“At the very least, Yahoo is a good target for monitoring and intelligence purposes – tracking a person of interest, seeing whom they are communicating with, what about, and so on,” said Jeremiah Grossman, chief of security at Sentinel One. Grossman worked on Yahoo’s security team from 1999 to 2001.‎ The Justice Department announced charges Wednesday against two Russian spies and two hackers behind the 2014 theft of data connected to half a billion Yahoo accounts, which officials called one of the largest known data leaks in American history. It’s unclear from the Justice Department release what the suspects collected from accessing Yahoo accounts; however, officials noted that “some victim accounts were of predictable interest” to Russia’s federal security service.‎ Bill Anderon, CEO of computer security company Optio Labs, said that Yahoo’s popularity – plus its treasure of accounts that have set unused for years – put a huge bullseye on the company.‎ Email accounts are the gateway to plenty of areas in your personal life – from your banking accounts and social networks to finding out who your closest contacts are, Anderson said. At best, it’s a treasure chest worth a fortune to the intelligence community. At worst, it’s at least worth a few cents. Hackers can then sell millions of accounts to spammers, at a few cents each, for a decent payoff, according to experts.‎ While Yahoo has made huge efforts in strengthening its security in recent years, the company doesn’t have the same reputation for being on the cutting edge of security as Google. Many information security experts have respect for the current security team, but not the Yahoo brand itself, Grossman said. That image makeover may take time.‎ ‎32. Which may not be the reason for the Yahoo’s 2014 theft of data?‎ A. Its good reputation for security. B. Its popularity among Internet users.‎ C. Its huge numbers of accounts. D. Its political and commercial value.‎ ‎33. The underlined part in the fourth paragraph means?‎ A. brought great profits to the company B. made the company an easy target C. caused Yahoo to lose lots of users D. put the spotlight on the company ‎34. What can we infer from the text?‎ A. The current security team will be fired by Yahoo.‎ B. The Russian government is to blame in the case.‎ C. Google takes the lead in the cyber security.‎ D. Yahoo will make up for the users' losses.‎ ‎35. What may serve as the best title?‎ A. Yahoo, a Perfect Target? B. Justice Has Long Arms C. I’s Never too Late to Mend D. Watch Out for Your Account 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。‎ Reading for pleasure is an alien concept especially between your to-do list, your deadlines, and your complete lack of “your time”. 36 However, tons of super successful people find time in their schedules to read. After spending hours and hours trying different strategies, I’m excited to share the tricks that have helped me make reading for pleasure reality.‎ Combine it with an existing, enjoyable habit.‎ Writer James Clear introduced me to the concept of “habit stacking（叠放）” 37 According to Clear, “the quickest way to build a new habit into your life is to stack it on top of a current habit.”‎ Since I’ve always loved breakfast, I decided to “stack” the new habit of reading for 30 minutes ‎ on top of my existing one of going to cafes and eating fried eggs.‎ ‎ 38 ‎ At the beginning of each month, my friend and I share our reading lists and make sure to help each other to finish them. After posting my first reading list with an image and “mentioning” a few authors, one of them started following my account and another asked me to share my thoughts on his book. 39 ‎ Only allow yourself to buy a new book for every book you’ve finished.‎ Although I never read much until recently, I did have the bad habit of buying books—books that would only collect dust on my shelves. I’ll assume that I'm not the only one with this problem. 40 No matter how eager you are to purchase the new release that appeared in your local bookstore or on the homepage of your Amazon account, don’t—not unless you’ve recently finished a book from your reading list. It’s that simple.‎ A. Share your monthly reading goals with a friend.‎ B. Picking up a book and reading for fun feels impossible.‎ C. Be responsible to your friends and the Internet strangers D. Thanks to this strategy, I got my bookish lifestyle started.‎ E. So I propose a solution that will help you both read more and save money.‎ F. Being addicted to social media sure keeps you from achieving your reading goal.‎ G. Posting your list online to build connections with writers you admire will always make a difference.‎ 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。‎ Grandma celebrated grandpa’s birthday just days before he passed away.
