Thirteen, for me, was a challenging year. My parents divorced and I moved to a new town with
my father, far from my old family and friends. I was terribly lonely and would cry myself to sleep each
night. To ease my sadness, my father purchased an old horse for me at a local market. I named him
Cowboy.
Cowboy was undoubtedly the ugliest horse in the world. But I didn’t care. I loved him beyond all
reason.
I joined a riding club and suffered rude comments and mean snickers about Cowboy’s looks. I
never let on about how I felt, but deep inside, my heart was breaking. The other members rode
beautiful, registered horses.
When Cowboy and I entered the events where the horse is judged on appearance, we were
quickly shown the gate. No amount of preparation and love would turn Cowboy into a beauty. My
only chance to compete would be in the speed events. I chose the jumping race.
One girl named Becky rode a big brown horse in the race events. She always won the blue ribbons. Needless to say, she didn’t feel threatened when I competed against her at the next show. She
didn’t need to. I came in next to last.
The stinging memory of Becky’s smirks(得意的笑) made me determined to beat her. For the
whole next month I woke up early every day and rode Cowboy five miles to the arena. We practiced
running and jumping for hours in the hot sun and then I would walk Cowboy home totally exhausted.
All of our hard work didn’t make me feel confident by the time the show came. I sat at the gate
and sweated it out while I watched Becky and her horse charge through the course and finish in first
place.
My turn finally came. I put on my hat, rubbed Cowboy’s neck and entered the arena. At the
signal, we dashed toward the first fence, jumped it without trouble and raced on to the next one.
Cowboy then flew over the second, third and fourth fences like a bird and I turned him toward the
finish line.
As we crossed the line the crowd was shocked into silence. Cowboy and I had beaten Becky and
her fancy horse by two seconds!
I gained much more than a blue ribbon that day. At thirteen, I realized that no matter what the
odds, I’d always come out a winner if I wanted something badly enough to work for it.
5. Why was the writer unconfident of victory?
A. He was an inexperienced rider.
B. He was unpopular with the crowd.
C. He had not practised much yet.
D. He thought his horse wasn’t good.
6. What did the writer learn from his experience?
A. Life can sometimes be unfair for us.
B. Anything is possible if one tries hard enough.
C. A positive attitude will bring us success.
D. One should not judge others by appearance.
7. What is the best title for the text?
A. A Run to Remember B. A Horse’s Tale
C. Neck and Neck Race D. A Difficult Age
C
What is the first thing you notice when you walk into a shop? The products displayed at the
entrance? Or the soft background music?But have you ever noticed the smell? Unless it is bad, the answer is likely to be no. But while a
shop’s scent may not be outstanding compared with sights and sounds, it is certainly there. And it is
providing to be an increasing powerful tool in encouraging people to purchase.
A brand store has become famous for its distinctive scent which floats through the fairly dark hall
and out to the entrance, via scent machines. A smell may be attractive but it may not just be used for
freshening air. One sports goods company once reported that when it first introduced scent into its
stores, customers’ intention to purchase increased by 80 percent.
When it comes to the best shopping streets in Paris, scent is just as important to a brand’s success
as the quality of its window displays and goods on sales. That is mainly because shopping is a very
different experience to what it used to be.
Some years ago, the focus for brand name shopping was on a few people with sales assistants’
disproving attitude and don’t-touch-what-you-can’t-afford displays. Now the rise of electronic
commerce (e-commerce) has opened up famous brands to a wider audience. But while e-shops can use
sights and sounds, only bricks-and-mortar stores (实体店) can offer a full experience from the minute
customers step through the door to the moment they leave. Another brand store seeks to be much more
than a shop, but rather a destination. And scent is just one way to achieve this.
Now a famous store uses complex man-made smell to make sure that the soft scent of baby
powder floats through the kid department, and coconut scent in the swimsuit section. A department
store has even opened a new lab, inviting customers on a journey into the store’s windows to smell
books, pots and drawers, in search of their perfect scent.
8. What is an increasingly powerful tool in the success of some brand store?
A. A friendly assistant. B. Unique scents.
C. Soft background music. D. Attractive window display.
9. E-shops are mentioned in the text to _______.
A. show the advantages of brick-and-mortar stores
B. urge shop assistants to change their attitude
C. advise stores to use sights and sounds
D. introduce the rise of e-commerce
10. The underlined word “destination” in Paragraph 5 probably means “______”.
A. a platform that exhibits goods
B. a spot where travelers like to stay
C. a place where customers love to go
D. a target that a store expects to meet11. What is the purpose of the text?
A. To compare and evaluate. B. To examine and assess.
C. To argue and discuss. D. To inform and explain.
D
Researchers from the Water, Peace and Security partnership (WPS) have announced the
creation of a global forecasting tool that can predict where conflicts arising from water insecurity are
most likely to break out. The system uses artificial intelligence to create patterns from a wide rage of
geographical and socio-economic data and can identify potential conflict hotspots up to a year in
advance.
Susan Schme, a senior lecturer at Delft Institute for Water Education, which leads the WPS,
explains predicting these types of conflicts isn’t as simple as it might first appear. It isn’t simply a
case of conflicts increasing every time a water security incident occurs. Several regional and cultural
factors also play a part, making prediction difficult.
The researchers test-ran the AI tool in Mali. They found that it predicted more than
three-quarters of the water-related conflicts there. To achieve this, the system is fed with a variety of
data. “First there’s the natural side of things—so rainfall data, soil moisture and many other natural
factors,” explains Schme. This enables it to identify areas where availability of water is likely to
become a concern.
“Then we also look at vulnerability in terms of socio-economic and political developments —
anything from a regime type to the state of development in a region,” she adds. This additional
information is weighed up to determine whether it increases or decreases the chance of conflict.
Other factors might include whether the water insecurity is likely to affect crops.
The tool is just one part of a wider WPS project that aims to increase the availability of
information which could help avoid water-related conflicts. Once artificial intelligence has made its
predictions the WPS researchers use other analytical tools to zoom-in on a certain region and find
out exactly what’s driving water insecurity. This might be decreased rainfall, increased population,
or water might be being diverted away from a community.
The designers are now undergoing final tests of the new AI tool to make sure it’s ready for a
November launch date. Once widely available, Schme hopes that it will be used by local
governments and also by international organizations with an interest in maintaining global stability.
12. What is the function of the tool?
A. Collecting all kinds of data.B. Predicting conflict hotspots.
C. Ensuring security of water.
D. Stopping breakout of water pipe.
13. How did the AI tool work in Mali?
A. The government discourages it.
B. More improvement is needed.
C. It works quite effectively.
D. It attracts public attention.
14. What is related to the water-related conflicts in Mali?
A. Its climate. B. Its lifestyle.
C. Its agriculture. D. Its population.
15. What is the last paragraph mainly about?
A. People’s attitude to the AI tool.
B. Study process of the AI tool.
C. Designers of the AI tool.
D. The future of the AI tool.

Travelling with friends can be an absolutely amazing experience where you could make
lifelong memories or it could end up ruining your friendship. 16 Here are some rules you
should follow to make sure your next trip with friends goes as smoothly as possible.
17 Sure, you and your friends probably have some similar interests, but that’s not always
the case. In an effort to keep everyone happy, go over travel plans and expectations ahead of time.
Have each person categorize activities or sights into “must-see” “want to see” and “would go if we
have time”. Plan accordingly and make sure everyone can see some of their top attractions.
Communicate and respect each other. Everyone has personal preferences when travelling —
from getting the bed closest to the bathroom or sitting in the airplane’s window seat. But sometimes
things don’t go as you like. In this case, share your requirements directly with your travel
companions. 18 Have a conversation when problems arise, for communication is the key.
Don’t disappear. When travelling with a group — or even just one other person — you may
want some alone time. That’s completely fine, but make sure your friends know where you are and
have a way of contacting you. 1 19 Get off your phone. Of course, your friends will understand if you need to take a call from a
family member, or in the event of a work emergency, but other than that, try to stay off your phone.
20 After all, the appeal of this type of trip is to spend time with friends. Just enjoy it!
A. Give each other some space.
B. Include at least one activity for everyone.
C. And remember that consideration and respect go a long way.
D. At the same time, listen to their concerns and be respectful of them.
E. Don’t respond to non-urgent work contact or send messages frequently.
F. It’s especially true of travelling in foreign countries or unfamiliar places.
G. So it’s important to make sure you and your friend(s) are on the same page.

Have you seen people who take pictures of food for more than 10 minutes before eating? My
friend Stella is such an example. Every time we went to a restaurant, she would not take a bite until
all the dishes we 21 were on the table. Then she would spend five minutes in 22
the dishes in a seemingly random but in fact 23 order. Then the most important part: taking
pictures. After that, she would choose one of the 24 and click in the filter(滤镜)app. The food
eventually looked 10 times more delicious than it really was, but we had no 25 to really enjoy
it—it all went cold. Actually Stella’s real life is much less elegant. For example, she hates to wash
the dishes, so she leaves them in the sink for days.
Many people care too much about others’ opinions and try too hard to 26 others. They
find it hard to be 27 and to accept themselves, and thus they are afraid to show their 28
life on social media. What they are trying to prove is 29 what they lack in reality. But this will
not bring any 30 to reality, as they still 31 the same old pattern of life.
If they really want an elegant life, they should put more 32 into achieving it 33
fabricating(伪造)it. Being more confident, 34 themselves and trying their best to be better are
much more meaningful than 35 their life on social media.
21. A. ordered B. served C. offered D. prepared
22. A. cooking B. washing C. setting D. collecting
23. A. messy B. arranged C. casual D. missed
24. A. dishes B. restaurants C. tables D. pictures 25. A. chance B. choice C. excuse D. reason
26. A. comfort B. please C. inspire D. discourage
27. A. independent B. generous C. responsible D. confident
28. A. real B. secret C. peaceful D. healthy
29. A. rarely B. hardly C. exactly D. nearly
30. A. difficulty B. change C. guidance D. harm
31. A. question B. dislike C. doubt D. follow
32. A. effort B. ambitions C. feelings D. money
33. A. other than B. more than C. rather than D. less than
34. A. identifying B. accepting C. persuading D. amusing
35. A. simplifying B. ruining C. beautifying D. worsening

The giant panda, also 36 (know) as panda bear or simply panda, is a bear native 37
south central China. In the past many years, the giant panda 38 (drive) out of the lowland areas
where it once lived as a result of farming, deforestation and other 39 (develop). Wild population
estimates vary:one estimate shows that there are about 1,590 individuals 40 (1ive) in the wild,
while a 2006 study estimated that this figure could be as high as 2,000 to 3,000. Some reports also
show that 41 number of giant pandas in the wild is on the rise.
The West first learned of the giant panda on March 11, 1869, 42 the French missionary(传
教士) Armand David received a panda skin from a hunter. In 1936, Ruth Harkness became the first
Westerner to bring a live giant panda named Su Lin to the Brookfield Zoo in Chicago. To protect the
pandas, in 2012, Earthwatch Institute, a global nonprofit that teams volunteers with scientists to
conduct important 43 (science) research, launched a program called “On the Trail of Giant
Panda”. This program, based in the Wolong National Nature Reserve, allows 44 (volunteer) to
work up close with pandas cared for in captivity (圈养), and help them 45 (gradual) adapt to life in
the wild.

An urgent call came into Jim Green’s bar this past March. A newly married woman who had
spent the afternoon at the beach bar, couldn’t find her wallet. She didn’t care about her ID, credit
cards, or $150 in cash — but her wedding ring was inside.
Jim, 42, didn’t like the idea that a theft could have occurred at his place. So he set out to find
the wallet. He spent hours checking the video tapes from 16 different surveillance cameras(监控摄
像机), watching the woman’s every step in the bar until she went to sit on a bench outside and left
when her ride arrived. Within minutes, a young man approached the bench, quickly put something in
his pocket, and walked off. Jim posted a clip on the bar’s Facebook page. “I just asked if anybody
knew who the guy was,” Jim said.
Within hours, Jim got a text from 17-year-old Peter. Peter admitted to having taken the wallet
and told Jim he’d done it because he hadn’t eaten in two days. He said he saw the ring but thought it
was fake, so he took the money and threw the wallet off the public docks into the ocean. Then he
bought a sandwich.
Jim, unsure whether he believed Peter, told the teen to meet him at the docks. There, they got to
talking, and Peter revealed that he wasn’t getting along with his family and had been living in the
woods for a week. Jim, a father of two, looked closely at Peter — his small height, his ruddy cheeks
— and saw him for what he was: more of a kid than a criminal.
But the risks were high. The police were already on the case, and because of the missing ring,
Peter could be facing a serious crime charge. “I had to help him somehow,” Jim says.
The police wanted Jim to bring the teen down to the station. Instead, Jim called the police and
told them, “He’s going to be at the docks with me tomorrow.” Paragraph 1
Jim hired two local divers to search the waters where Peter had thrown the wallet.
Paragraph 2
And then a diver popped up.

Paragraph 1
Jim hired two local divers to search the waters where Peter had thrown the wallet. A detective
was waiting for them there. A crowd had gathered to watch the two divers search in the strong
current. More than an hour passed, with no sign of the ring. Jim grew worried, especially when the
detective began questioning Peter, trying to get him to admit keeping the ring.
Paragraph 2
And then a diver popped up. In his hand was the wallet, and inside was the ring. Cheers broke
out in the crowd. When Jim called the wallet’s owner, she burst into tears. She promptly dropped the
