Jim McGee was once an Air Force pilot in Vietnam. In 2017, he was seriously ill because his
kidneys(肾)were gone.
Jim immediately started dialysis(透析)，but a person of his age on dialysis usually lives only about
four years. Transplants are a long-shot alternative. The National Kidney Foundation estimates that 13
people die every day while waiting for a donor with the right blood and tissue types. Jim’s wife, Shirley
McGee, and some family friends offered but weren’t a match.
Desperate, Shirley had T-shirts made that said “I’m in need of a donor.” Her husband would wear one
whenever he went to downtown Sarasota. No luck.
In early 2018, Jim didn’t feel like attending a reunion of some Air Force buddies in Monterey,
California. "I said, ‘Is it really worth going to Monterey to sit in dialysis for two days?’”Jim recalls. "And
my wife said, ‘ Yeah，come on. You really want to see your friends.’And I am glad I made that decision.”
In California, Jim reunited with six fellow airmen, including one he hadn’t seen in nearly 50 years:
Doug Coffman. The two had met when they both were learning Vietnamese before they went overseas. Jim
told Doug and his other comrades about his predicament(困境).
Doug, then 70, happened to have the right blood type and immediately decided to help. But could he?
Shirley’s guess was that doctors would tell Doug what they had told her: You’re too old. He immediately
had his doctor send his medical records to Georgetown Medical Center, where Jim was being treated.
Within a month, Doug was cleared for major testing. The testing revealed not only that Doug’s tissue
type matched Jim’s but also that he had the kidneys of a 35-year-old. When the doctors gave him the OK to
donate, Doug immediately called Jim, and asked for the first surgery date available. On September 18，
2018，Doug went into surgery at 7:30 a. m.; Jim followed at 9:30 a. m. By noon, they were both in the recovery room. The transplant was a success.
24．Which of the following can best describe Shirley?
A．Knowledgeable and talkative . B．Reasonable and energetic.
C．Outgoing and thankful. D．Helpful and considerate.
25．How did Jim feel about his illness just before going to Monterey?
A．Discouraged. B．Satisfied. C．Ashamed. D．Nervous.
26．Why did Jim McGee decide to go to Monterey?
A．To seek help. B．To practice Vietnamese.
C．To meet his fellow airmen. D．To have a thorough examination there.
27．What can we know about Doug Coffman?
A．He was too old to help. B．He acted without delay in helping Jim.
C．He seldom visited his doctor. D．He was 35 years younger than his age.

There's a blue house in central Florida that's hard to miss. It's somewhat famous among people who
live nearby-it's painted to look like “Starry Night,” the iconic painting by Vincent van Gogh - but not
everyone is a fan of the larger-than-life artwork.
“We had not originally intended to paint the house like this,” Nancy, who lives there with her husband,
Lubomir, and their adult son, told TODAY. They started by painting the wall outside of their home,
because it was “in disrepair” and they wanted it to look nice. The couple said they even asked permission
from the city to paint the wall, and were told it was OK. “So we went ahead and started having the wall
painted by an artist who has his work shown throughout South America,” Nancy said. The couple chose
Van Gogh because their son, who has autism(自闭症), is a fan of the great artist.
“God forbid my son were to be in a situation where he was unable to find his way back home, we're
hoping that he would have the ability to at least say that he belongs at the Van Gogh house,” Nancy said.
And the father even believed that there was magical connection between Van Gogh and autistic kids,
because Van Gogh was possibly also autistic.
After they painted the wall, the couple got a citation(传票) from the city stating that the wall painting
was considered graffiti(涂鸦) and that the wall must match the house. That's when they decided to paint the
entire house to look like “Starry Night”---knowing that was not quite what the city had in mind but
confident that they weren't breaking any law.Since then, they've been fined $10,600. In February, they filed a federal lawsuit(起诉) against the city,
claiming the city is violating their right to freedom of expression. Mount Dora city officials nor their
lawyer would comment on the issue. But in February, they did say in a statement that they were trying to
“preserve the residential character of our neighborhoods,” and that the house “may present a distraction to
safe vehicle operation along the street which fronts the home.”
While both sides are in settlement talks, the fate of the mural(壁画) is still up in the air. The family
say they are ready to battle for what they believe in.
28．What was the couple’s original intention to paint the wall?
A．To beautify the damaged wall.
B．To respond to the call of the city.
C．To assist an artist to show his work.
D．To express their son’s admiration for Van Gogh.
29．What does the underlined phrase “God forbid” in paragraph three mean?
A．May God forgive us.
B．It’s forbidden by God.
C．Even God can’t help it.
D．We hope it does not happen.
30．What’s the final attitude of the Mount Dora city officials towards the unique house?
A．Supportive B．Disapproving C．Ambiguous D．Understanding
31．What is the text mainly about?
A．“Starry Night” house in Florida arouses a heated discussion.
B．Neighbors sign an online petition in support of “Starry Night” house.
C．The magical connection between Van Gogh and autistic kids.
D．Homeowners battle for their “Starry Night” house in Florida.

Dinner and a movie was a two-part affair. But increasingly, the two have been combined into a single
experience, allowing moviegoers to get fries and a beer while they watch the latest superhero blockbuster.
Full-service theaters have become a Friday-night pastime for Americans.
Dine-in cinemas are not altogether new. In the late 1980s, brothers Mike and Brian McMenamin
opened one in Portland. A decade later, inspired by the Mcmenamins, Tim and Karrie league began pairing trendy beer with hits like The Craft at the Alamo Drafthouse in Austin. But in recent years, the trend has
expanded from niche (小众) to mainstream. There are now 29 Alamo locations nationwide, from Omaha to
El Paso.
Full-service theaters appeal to a broader, more regionally diverse customer base. At Movie Tavern in
Roswell, Ga. for instance, you can order popcorn shrimp while watching Jumanji: Welcome to the Jungle.
AMC, the biggest U.S. movie-theater company, launched DINE-IN, where meals can be ordered with the
push of a button. For the most upscale experience, you’ll have to fly to Paris, where EuropaCorp First Class,
owned by the Fifth Element director Luc Besson, serves luxurious champagne and caviar (鱼子酱).
The rise in full-service moviegoing goes with declining ticket sales across the industry more broadly.
North American movie attendance in 2018 dropped to what appears to be a 27-year low. The downward
tendency is the continuation of a 15-year trend. Between lots of uninspired remakes hitting theaters,
younger audiences choosing to consume content on their smart phones and the dramatic rise in the
popularity of streaming (流媒体), it’s no wonder that theater owners are seeking creative ways to attract
customers off their couches. It’s working: despite a 2% decline in movie attendance over four years, AMC
DINE-IN achieved 4% growth in just two.
Full-service theaters are not without complaints. Despite servers’ attempts at stealth (悄悄的行动),
many find them distracting when serving food. And as expensive as traditional theater concessions have
become, prices tend to get dearer once pancetta (意大利熏肉) enters the mix.
But for those with the funds, the full-service theater offers reason enough to quit online movies.
32．The combination of dinner and a movie __________.
A．is a new business model appearing recently.
B．pairs trendy drinks with films in 29 nations.
C．introduces the latest movies and the dearest food.
D．gains much popularity despite the decline in ticket sales
33．The underlined word “upscale” in Paragraph 3 is closest in meaning to __________.
A．comfortable B．creative C．expensive D．inspiring
34．Which of the following statements is TRUE about the passage?
A．Ticket sales remain almost the same in the past 15 years.
B．Uninspired remade films are the major complaint of audience.
C．Full-service theaters are a creative way to promote ticket sales.D．Full-service theaters provide a perfect experience for all audiences.
35．The passage is intended to __________.
A．argue if online movies are beneficial
B．introduce a popular pattern of recreation
C．call on people to quit expensive online movies
D．blame the decreasing movie attendance on streaming
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。
Getting along with people can be tough. The following are some suggestions that can help you in
some way.
Accept human nature. Humans make mistakes. People aren’t always nice. They also have all of the
problems that you have in your life. 36． This is important to remember when you’re trying to get along
with people who are very difficult or seem to be ignoring you；everyone is just doing the best that they can.
37． People are all very different: that’s what makes life interesting. And just like people are all
different, the world is also very complex. Every situation is different, always. Just because someone doesn’t
make the choice that you would make or just because they take a less efficient or smart path to get where
they’re going doesn’t make them wrong.
Practice forgiveness. Forgive people when they do make mistakes. Sometimes you just have to stop
and give people the benefit of the doubt(to believe someone even though you are not sure whether what the
person is saying is true).They might really be sorry or they might really not know that what they did was
bad. 38．
Keep an open mind. Sometimes you have to give people the benefit of the doubt. 39． For example,
when people invite you to parties, really consider going instead of just brushing the invitation aside because
you don’t think they’re serious.
Do something together. 40． You can work together on a project for school or work. You can also try a
new activity together. These activities will give you more to talk about and lots of chances to interact and
get to know each other.
A．Everyone is dealing with their own set of problems.
B．You might think that they hate you but they might be honestly trying to be nice to you.
C．Think about what your words really say.D．Doing things together is a great way to bond with people and make friends.
E. You have to forgive them so that you can move on to happier feelings.
F. Respect that there are lots of valid choices.
G. Even when someone’s making you mad, thank them for their effort to help or their suggestions.

I noticed a man with two bags stopped right next to me to 42 his family. First he motioned to

nervously asked, “Wow! How long have you been married?”
“Been together fourteen years total, married twelve of those.” he replied, staring at her.
“Then, how long have you been away?” I asked. The man finally turned to me, saying, “Two whole
days!”
I was 54 . By their greeting, I had assumed he’d been gone for 55 a few weeks - if not months. I know my expression 56 me. To ease the 57 , I said, “I hope my marriage is still
that passionate after twelve years.” He suddenly stopped smiling, looking me straight in the eye and said
something that left me another person.
“Don’t hope, friend…decide!”, and then his eyes 58 smile again.
