career, as a mother, in my business activities. If I 36 that I was afraid of the dark, or if I
seemed worried about meeting new people, Dad would say, “Stand porter to your 37 .”
A porter is a gatekeeper, who stands at a door 38 people in or out. Dad would get me to
39 myself stopping destructive things ---such as fear---at the door, 40 saying “Come in”
to faith, love and self-assurance.
As a(n) 41 , before I went on camera, I’d make sure anxiety stayed out and confidence

We were on call 24 hours a day. Something was always going 48 . Electricity went on

with no maids. Fillmore gave me a 50 : scrub floors or do the laundry. For 10 days I folded enough king-size sheets to 51 the whole state of California.
Then there was the 52 crisis. The price of gasoline doubled, and tourism in California

worry were sneaking in. But I caught them just 54 . I stood porter.

56. What does the underlined phrase “a Golden Gopher” refer to?
A. A freshman. B. A professor. C. An amateur. D . An inspector.
57. Which of the following is the benefit of choosing the U of M?
A. The university invites leaders in different fields to teach on campus.
B. There are numerous clubs which offer students various activities.
C. It is so ideally located that you have easy access to famous top brands.
D. Many magazines rank it among the top universities with high tuition.
B.
You are standing in a hall packed with friends, family, colleagues and peers. You are about to walk onto the stage and address theme. You’re expected to say something meaningful and
profound and everyone is hanging on your every word. You need to be clearly spoken, confident
and calm, maybe even funny. How do you feel?
If you’re shaking, sweating and looking for the exit, you’re normal. Most of us are scared of
public speaking and yet, as a society, we’re becoming more obsessed with hearing what people
have to say: we watch endless TED talks, download podcasts and screen hours of YouTube clips.
Being able to address a crowd is no longer the domain of the brave----if you want to get ahead in
your career, you need to master it. I’ve done enough public speaking to have picked up some tips
and tricks, and these are the ones I rely on most.
The most important thing is to prepare. You don’t have to write out your speech word by
word but get the headline, three key points and the concluding sentence on paper and put bullet
points under each. Then run through it and note which of your bullet points made it in and what
you added. Adapt your notes and try again. Keep going until you have a structure.
Now it’s time to watch yourself----yes, get out your camera and film yourself. This is how
you will see the points that need work and where you can polish it up.
Most of the information the audience will take away will be from your energy and your tone,
a little from your words. Once you have sorted out the words, focus on how to exude(散发) the
right energy---do you need confidence or humor? I go for confidence so, five minutes before a
talk, I try to recall a success I’ve had. I focus on the details and aim to bring that feelings of
competence to life.
Finally, breathe, We cannot speak without breath, yet it is the first thing we let go of when
we are nervous. Settle your breathing before you start. If you lose control of your breath in the
middle, say “Let’s take a moment to think about that last point.” That gives you a pause to collect
your breath. The only way to get over a fear of public speaking is to do it, again and again. You
will have good and bad experiences but, if you do it enough, you’ll realize that, occasionally, it’s
fun.
58.According to the author, why is public speech important to the average?
A. Friendships can be established through it.
B. Public speeches can display our courage.
C. There are more occasions for pubic speeches. D. It is beneficial to our way up the career ladder.
59. Which of the following tips is recommended by the author?
A. Preparing and writing down every detail.
B. Displaying right energy during the speech.
C. Watching famous films of public speeches.
D. Telling key points and bullet points apart.
60. What view does the author hold about public speaking?
A. It creates more and more fun if we stick to practice.
B. It is easier to practise at home than to perform outside.
C. Experiences of public speaking can delight us sometimes.
D. Attempts to give public speaking tend to fail in the end.
C.
Throwing handfuls of bread to birds has long been seen as harmless enough. But in recent
years, some scientists have suggested that bread might not do birds’ digestive systems any good,
saying that as uneaten food rots down, the water quality worsens and algal blooms can occur. Plus,
by encouraging birds to gather in one place, the build-up of droppings may result in outbreaks of
disease too. Meanwhile, many cities have signs telling us not to feed pigeons and gulls, which are
considered an “annoyance” due to the mess they make, and scattering bread inevitably attracts rats
and mice.
It seems that the public has accepted these warnings, and that fewer of us now feed birds this
way. In October, a sign went up in a Derbyshire park claiming that the local birds were dying of
starvation, and urging visitors to feed them as before. When online posts about the notice went
viral, feathers flew as people debated the benefits of handing out bread to birds.
Paul Stancliffe of the British Trust for Ornithology(BTO) points out that there’s insufficient
scientific evidence for bread harming birds, adding that, as little research has been done, it could
even turn out to be beneficial. ① “We just don’t know,” he says. Although bread is
a heavily processed “unnatural” food intended for humans, that alone may be insufficient grounds
for not feeding it to birds.
In the 1980s, the Wildfowl & Wetland Trust (WWT) carried out a comparative study of
different flocks of mute swans, and the birds that consumed the most bread had weaker muscles, implying that a bread-heavy diet might be the cause. “Our official line is that bread is okay for
ducks, geese and swans, but only in moderation,” says WWT’s Peter Morris. “However, this
advice comes with several other warnings.” ② The first is that it’s best offered in
winter, when there is less plant and insect food around.d In spring and summer, too much artificial
food may not be a good idea, since young birds have to learn how to look after themselves and
natural food will contain a wider range of nutrients to help them grow.
“Just like us, birds need a varied diet to stay healthy,” says a spokesperson for the Royal
Society for the Protection of Birds(RSPB). “Although ducks, geese and swans can digest all types
of bread, too much can leave them feeling full without giving them all of the important vitamins,
minerals and nutrients they need.” ③
When bird feeding first became popular in the UK in the 19th century, some Victorians
encouraged tough love, arguing that such handouts would only make our feathered friends lazy
and dependent on welfare. ④ Morris says that there is a theory that wild birds
can get “hooked” on easy meals, losing interest in other types of food. Another danger, he says, is
that birds fed regularly end up accustomed to humans, placing themselves at greater risk of
predation(捕食).
61. How can feeding birds with bread affect our urban life?
A. Birds’ mess can attract many rats and mice.
B. Birds’ gathering in one place disturbs our peace.
C. Bread goes bad and the water quality will suffer.
D. Human beings are likely to be infected with bird flu.
62. If birds rely on a bread-heavy diet, there is a strong possibility that ______.
A. they will become bigger in size with stronger muscles
B. lack of certain nutrients negatively influences their health
C. their digestive system will be damaged by artificial food
D. they would soon choose bread rather than natural food.63. Where does the sentence “Such moralizing sounds old-fashioned nowadays, but may have a
grain of truth.” best suit?
A. ① B. ② C. ③ D. ④
64. What is the best title for this passage?
A. Is feeding birds a wise choice? B. Why not feed our bird neighbours?
C.Can we treat birds as friends? D . When do birds need our food aid?
D.
Despite all the ways we have to interact with others, people still feel isolated and lone.
Loneliness is an increasing problem----so much so that, last year, the government introduced a
loneliness strategy and minister for loneliness. We used to talk of the condition in relation to older
people but rarely gender. It may come as a surprise then that so many of those affected by
loneliness are men.
A recent YouGov survey for Movember, a charity event that raises awareness of men’s
health issues, asked men about their friendships and whether they had people outside their homes
they could swap their worries with. Half of men asked said they had two or fewer friends and one
in eight had none---that’s 2.5 million men with no close friends. Even worse, men’s friendlessness
doubles between their early 20s and late middle age.
Isolation can have physical and mental health implications. A 2017 report by the Commission
on Loneliness said loneliness is as harmful to health as smoking 15 cigarettes a day. Research
shows correlation between loneliness and heart disease and strokes, and other studies associate
loneliness with depression. However, why are so many men affected? In our latest podcast,
psychotherapist Noel Bell says some men feel they have to be self-reliant. Due to widespread
social stereotypes (刻板印象), it can be viewed as a sign of weakness for men to admit they have
a problem, express their deepest feelings or discuss a serious personal topic.
Perhaps due to the way generations of men have been raised, it is often difficult to recognize
feelings of loneliness in the first place. Behavioural differences between boys and girls are not
naturally born at birth, they are socialised. Girls are stereotypically seen as more emotional and talkative and so their communicative and expressive skills are more valued than those of boys by
parents and teachers, according to researchers.
For some men, having a partner and a family can somewhat shelter them from the negative
effects of loneliness---but what if their personal circumstances change? After a relationship breaks
down or there is a loss of you beloved, some men find their friends have drifted away and they
have no one to talk to. Social media can be beneficial if it leads to interaction in the real world, but
online networks are no substitute for face-to-face friendships---the number of likes on your most
recent post does not compare with genuine connection.
Social activities such as team sports aren’t for everyone and, if you’re already feeling lonely
or isolated, it can be difficult to build the confidence to enter those environments and connect over
a shared interest. There is also the danger that some male-dominated social environments
encourage drinking alcohol and may not be the right places for those who are feeling the mental
health effects of isolation. That said, “shoulder to shoulder’ active interactions for men, such as
exercise, especially running, are proven to be beneficial. But such activities do not interest all men
and this is where psychotherapy(心理疗法) can be of particular use.
Don’t suffer in silence. A psychotherapist is not a friend, nor is therapy a substitute for a
meaningful friendship. A therapist will, however, help a client identify what may be creating
barriers to them building supportive friendships and determine the factors that may be causing
their feelings of isolation. A therapist will work with the client to address their issues, providing a
fair, non-judgemental space in which a lonely person can work out what is best for them and how
to move towards a more conn3ected and contented life. Bell, a famous therapist, says too many
men enter therapy only when a situation has reached crisis point and he encourages men not to
bottle up their emotions. “Reflecting on your feelings is healthy and normal,” he says.
65. Who used to be the prime victims of loneliness?
A. Junior students. B. Isolated ministers.
C.Mature men. D. Senior citizens.
66. What does the survey done by YouGov imply?
A. Men tend to expand their social circle after their adolescence.
B. Young and middle-aged male adults suffer more from loneliness. C. Loneliness remains at the same level despite different ages.
D. Deep friendships are difficult to maintain between the males.
67. According to the Nobel Bell, men’s loneliness is relevant to _______.
A. the fear of dying of heart disease and strokes
B. the depression popular among men of all ages
C. the conventional view on how men should behave
D. their reliance on outside assistance through hardships
68. In terms of social stereotypes, girls are better at _______.
A. gaining sympathy from men B. hiding their true emotions
C. disciplining their own behavior D. interacting with other people
69. Why does the author mention social media in Paragraph 5?
A. To stress the importance of real interaction to men.
B. To introduce a possible way out of loneliness for men.
C. To contradict the belief that men feel lonely online
D. To illustrate how social media can relieve depression.
70. When might a psychotherapist be of particular use?
A. When there is no substitute for the current therapy.
B. Not until a man is fully conscious of the crisis point?
C. When active interactions fail to attract a lonely man.
D. After a man is excluded from a team of common interests.

This is a stranger truth that anyone older than 25 will already know: as life goes on, time
seems to speed up. Think back to childhood when holidays seemed to last forever and you
attended a school for what felt like decades. Now consider last year, by contrast, and it probably
raced by. As those in their 30s and 40s will know, the effect gets worse with age---and, for people
in their 70s, a year can flash by in what seems like days. “Where did the time go?” we wonder.
One study found that if you’re 40, assuming you live to be 80, your life, in terms of your subjective experience of time, is already 70 percent gone. It’s all rather terrifying. Fortunately,
though, you have the power to change things.
The best explanation is that memories seem longer when our brains have to process more
information. Childhood and young adulthood are full of novelty---the first time you rode a bike,
had a romance, go job---but, as we get older, things get more routine. You can test this out by
recalling a recent experience of novelty in your life, such as travel. A few years back, I went
skiing for the first time, and that four-day trip still feels “long”. But a four-day period in my
ordinary life zooms by too quickly for me to notice.
One solution, then, is obvious: do lots of new stuff. Travel more, if you can, and to unfamiliar
places. Try new hobbies and meet new people---you’ll be taxing your brain, and the result will be
a life that feels longer, more expansive and meaningful. But smaller changes work, too: even
altering the route you take to the office, reading different kinds of novels or varying where you
buy your sandwich at lunchtime will have some impact.
But novelty can only go so far. Besides, a fulfilling life requires routine: you can’t build deep
relationships, or rise through the ranks at work if you’re always switching friends or jobs or even
spouses. That’s why the Buddhist teacher Shinzen Young suggests an additional strategy: learn to
meditate(冥想). Even a few minutes a day will enhance your concentration, and the better you get
at concentrating, the more information your brain will take in during any experience, no matter
how boring.
You’ll be making your whole life a little more novel. You’ll be more present and time will
pass less quickly; in effect, you’ll extend your life----without magic pills or groundbreaking
medical technology.

A new regulation by China’s Ministry of Education aims to grant primary and middle school
teachers more room in punishing their students in order to achieve better teaching results.
The regulation lists punishments available to teachers in three categories based on the level of
severity of the offense, including naming and shaming, forced standing that lasts no longer than
one class session, and suspension of class for no longer than one week.
Zhang Lifeng, a 43-year-old parent, welcomed the move. “The regulation should have come
earlier,” she said. “It will benefit both teachers and students as well as parents.”
However, a ninth grader at a middle school, disagreed. “It is normal for adolescent students
to make mistakes. I don’t think punishments are necessary. They may cause more trouble,” he
said.
Chen Xianzhe, a professor with the School of Education at South China Normal University,
said punishments are just a part of the teaching process.
The regulation asks schools to draft their own regulations accordingly to clarify the rules for
teachers in taking disciplinary actions against their students.

According to a new regulation issued by China’s Ministry of Education, teachers have the
right to discipline students who break school rules, which, however, has generated a lot of
discussion.
From my perspective, the significance of school discipline cannot be stressed too much. For
one thing, the regulation will help students better understand the consequences of misbehaving,
which is of great benefit to their healthy growth and development. For another, the regulation can
delegate more power to teachers, who shoulder pressure in dealing with misbehaving students.
In order for the regulation to be conducted effectively, many joint efforts need to be made.
First of all, authorities and schools should set up specific and reasonable rules for school
discipline. Secondly, teachers ought to understand the rules thoroughly to employ them properly
instead of abusing them. More importantly, parents are supposed to cooperate with teachers to
reach a consensus on the level of punishments.

M: What are you doing? You can’t park there. That is for disabled people.
W: Oh, I didn’t even see that. All right, all right, I’ll go find somewhere else to park.Text 2
W: The refrigerator broke again. Should I call the repairman?
M: The same one you called last time? I don’t think so. He charged us a lot. I took a course online
so maybe I can do it myself this time.

M: Thanks for helping Tommy with his math. You must stay and have supper with us.
W: I’d love to, but I have to visit my grandmother tonight. I’m going to Shanghai for a conference
, and I want to make sure she has enough groceries for a while. And I’ll probably make her
some food while I’m there.

W: My favorite animal is the dolphin. They make such funny sounds, and they are very smart.
M: Dolphins are cool, but sharks are way better. They are so fast in the water and they can grow to
be some of the biggest fish in the world.

M: Hi, I’ve just checked in. Is food still being served?
W: I’m sorry sir, the restaurant is just closing. It is open from 6:00 p.m. to 10:00 p.m. However,
room service is available until 11:00 p.m., so you have an hour to order.

W: Good morning. I’m afraid we don’t have your favorite today. Our supplier didn’t deliver any.
M: What other types do you recommend?
W: Well, the lady sitting over there used to order the same Brazilian coffee you have. Then one
day she tried Italian and she’s been having it every day since.M: Hmm, I’ll try that then, but I don’t think I’ll be changing permanently. It’s my weekly treat
after a tough morning at the office.
W: It’s good to try different things. I went to a French restaurant once and tried snails. I didn’t
think I’d like them but they were great.

M: What was the last thing you bought?
W: Let me think — was it a Superman toy for my dog? No, it was an ice cream maker.
M: Do you ever save money?
W: No. I’m always overdrawn at the bank.
M: Your mom and I have always taught you to manage your money wisely. Has none of that sunk
in?
W: Live for today. That’s what I say. Who knows what will happen tomorrow?
M: We know — simply because we have lived longer. You should save up and use money wisely
instead of wasting too much on clothes and things you don’t need.
W: Maybe you’re right…but the shopkeepers can be so persuasive.
M: Of course, it’s their job. It is your responsibility to look after your own interests.

W: I really miss my mother’s roasted chicken.
M: Why don’t we go visit her?
W: I wish we could. It’s been five years since we went to Mexico City for Christmas.
M: Well, I have a surprise. I bought plane tickets for October 28th. We’ll be there for a week.
W: Really?
M: Yes, dear.W: I can’t believe it! We’ll be there for the Day of the Dead on November 2nd, too! That’s a very
important holiday for my family, you know. We visit the tombs of my grandparents and then
have a family dinner in honor of our ancestors.
M: I remember. You’ve told me about it many times.
W: But you haven’t experienced it yet. I’m so happy that you’ll be there, too. Oh, Paul, thank you!
M: Well, pack your bags. We’re flying to Mexico City from Madrid on the 28th, but we leave
New York on the 22nd.
W: Wonderful! We can visit our college friends there.
M: Exactly.

W: Where is the best place to learn how to swim? I am afraid of the ocean, and there are no lakes
around for me to practice in.
M: Why don’t you just come over to my house? I swim in my backyard all the time.
W: That sounds great! Which day do you want me to come over? I am busy with a family party
this weekend, but I am free on Sunday afternoon. I also have Wednesday and Thursday free.
M: I have football team practice on Wednesday and a game the next day. I don’t know about
Sunday though. Isn’t it supposed to be a thunderstorm then?
W: I think I heard about that bad weather coming this way. Maybe we should plan to go
swimming sometime next week instead. If it is going to rain on Sunday, would you want to
come to my house and watch a movie instead? My parents have a large collection of films.
M: That sounds fun. Do they have anything funny or action-filled to watch?
W: They have a lot of history movies, but there are ones to make you laugh too. I’m sure we will
find something that we both can enjoy.
M: OK, well, I will send you a message later this week about it.Text 10
M: Frank Whittle was a British Royal Air Force officer who invented the jet engine. He was
born in a humble house in Coventry, England, on June 1st, 1907. His father was a clever engineer
who passed on his skills to his son. Whittle became adventurous, developing an early interest in
planes. He joined the Air Force and was taught about aircraft engines, gaining experience in the
engineering workshops. He was excellent in his studies and became a pilot. During study time, he
had the ideas that led to the creation of the jet engine, and he was given the legal right of
ownership of his design in 1930. His studies earned him a place on a further course at Cambridge
University, where he graduated with a first class degree. His first engine was tested in 1937.
Official interest grew but it was many years before it came into use. Whittle’s invention was of
great importance. It increased the speed of planes dramatically and jet engines are now used by
nearly every airline in the world. Whittle held many important jobs and became a hero in his
country. He later married an American woman and moved to the United States, where he became
a professor. He died at his home in Maryland on August 9th, 1996.
