Friends and family members are tied down in jobs, struggling to save money, and don't always want to go to the same places. The solution, of course, is to go it alone. Melbourne, Australia Melbourne is a hot-spot travel destination, which has beautiful beaches as well as busy and lively city life. Australia as a whole is considered a safe destination for international travel, and because of that, many solo （单独）travelers go there. Melbourne is incredibly easy to get around because you can walk or bike practically anywhere! Thailand Thailand is great for solo travelers - perhaps because it is one of the Buddhist mentality, which promotes equality among the sexes. Thailand is known for its friendly hospitality, and as a travel hot-spot, there are plenty of chances to meet other like-minded travelers. Overall known for being very cheap, especially in the north, it's a good choice if you want to get away on a budget. Bhutan Bhutan is one of the most cultural countries in the world. It is also home to the world's highest unclimbed peak, Gangkhar Puensum. The mountain is sacred （神圣的）and entry is only possible on a pre-booked tour, where you are accompanied around by your own personal guide. Plastic bags have been banned in Bhutan since 1999 and in 2004, it became the first country in the world to outlaw tobacco. Costa Rica Costa Rica is a great place if you're looking for adventure, with surfing, volcanoes and other recreational activities. You’ll never get a chance to feel lonely because there's an abundance of exciting adventures to experience! Costa Rica has never seen political unrest; class struggles or revolutions commonly associated with other Latin American Countries. What's more, it doesn't have or need an army because it's such a peaceful country. 1. Which place is suitable for travelers short of money?A. Melbourne, Australia. B. Thailand. C. Bhutan. D. Costa Rica. 2. What can we learn about travelling in Bhutan? A. You can climb the mountain without booking ahead. B. You can prepare some plastic bags for your rubbish. C.

B Officer Michael Rivers, a policeman who was snapped （抓拍）and the image shared on Facebook, as he sat sharing his lunch with a homeless woman at the side of the road in North Carolina, in the USA, is praised. According to Chris Barnes, his wife Cassie took the photo while she was on her lunch break. She saw the pair sharing a pizza and soft drink while they were having a friendly chat. Mr Barnes uploaded the image with the notes: “Cassie was out on her lunch break and observed the officer enjoying lunch with a homeless person.", Officer Rivers recalled seeing the woman earlier that day. He told Yahoo news: "I was leaving the parking lot of Walmart and she was standing by the stop sign. Her shirt read, "Homeless the fastest way of becoming a nobody/ I hated that she felt that way." He added: “I always try to talk to the homeless just to see how they got into their situation. You know, because it can happen to any one of us, at any given moment." After he drove away, he circled back to ask if the woman was hungry and if she wanted food. The officer said she was honored by his offer. He bought them both pizza and Mountain Dew and when the pair sat down to eat, he learned of her family struggles and told her: “Hey, you still got stuff to live for, you still got your life ahead of you. It's never too late." Officer Rivers, who does recruiting （招募新成员）for the Goldsboro PD, hopes to send a message of sympathy for others. He added: "When the younger or newer guys come in, I let them know, 'Hey, treating the community like human beings is the most important thing in the world'." "So, if we as police officers show that love and sympathy to everybody, no matter their age, financial background or race, the world would be a better place." 4. Why did Chris Barnes share the photo on Facebook? A. Because it was taken by his wife. B. Because the officer was his friend. C. Because the officer was handsome. D.

Cameron Ross started the Celise Bio-products company, to produce single-use plastic alternatives from plant materials like these. They are made of poly lactic acid （聚乳酸）known as PLA from com starches （淀粉）. Cameron Ross said, "We work with food service providers, mainly larger brands, to help them get quality sustainable and cost-effective solutions, made from plants to start getting rid of single-use plastics." Single-use plastics such as bottles or straws are major cause of pollution. When we throw these away, they end up in a landfill or in the water like rivers. According to researchers, it could take up to more than 500 years for them to properly break down. Ross says he wasn't always so environmentally conscious himself. But ever since the hiking trip in West Virginia, when he spent more time picking up trash than enjoying nature, his priorities changed. That meant making biodegradable products that can break down in only a few years. While many cafes and restaurants are choosing paper products to be more eco-conscious, it isn't cheap. Paper straws can cost about eight times more than plastic straws. But bio-plastic straws cost less than a penny a straw, not even double the price of plastic ones. Another problem with paper straws is that they get soft and wet. You don't want to be sipping （啜 饮） something that alters your drink, or starts to melt while you're drinking and then you have to get another paper straw, which creates more wastes than needed. Ross hopes his Washington DC-based company will provide an eco-friendly solution for food service providers. 8. Which aspect is NOT the focus of the Celise Bio-products? A. Material. B. Appearance. C. Quality. D. Cost 9. What inspired Ross to start the Bio-products company? A. High profits. B. Requests from food service providers. C. Lower cost. D. His changed environmental awareness.10. What can we learn about the new straws? A. They are widely used in cafes and restaurants. B. They cost less than paper ones. C. They may soften or even melt while carrying water. D. They produce more waste. 11. What's the author's purpose of writing the passage? A. To persuade more food service providers to work with Ross. B. To explain the development of straws. C. To introduce a new eco-friendly straw. D. To compare different straws. D Playdoh-just one of the many waggy-tailed （摇尾巴的）residents at the Scottish SPCA's （Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals） rescue centre in Aberdeenshire - is being introduced to a new sensory garden, getting used to new surroundings. It is really a dog's playground - providing scent （气味）stimulation and exercise many of them haven't experienced before. So, we do rescue lots of sort of, abandoned, abused animals - and this garden will help to rehabilitate them. It's going to enrich their life and it's going to give them skills that will help them in the future. And hopefully it will give them a bit more confidence and help them to find their new homes - which is the main aim. In recent years - the North East （of Scotland） has become something of a hot spot for illegal animal activity. The puppies were born at the rescue center after their mother was taken into care following a recent raid （警方突然搜查）in Moray. Some puppy farm dogs have never been out of a doghouse - so they haven't been outside, they haven't even walked on grass. The sensory garden is somewhere safe that they can come and learn these skills. This garden is really going to help them with their confidence and help them to socialize. Some of them haven't even learnt basic, basic skills - so this is really going to boost that for them. The center currently has 22 dogs waiting for a forever home. But in the meantime, the sensory garden, a new space filled with new pleasant smells, surfaces and barriers, is preparing them for "walkies" outside the center. 12. What does the underlined word "it" in paragraph 2 refer to? A. The Scottish SPCA. B. The new sensory garden. C. The dogs' new home. D. The North East of Scotland. 13. What does the underlined word ''rehabilitate " in paragraph 2 mean? A. Save. B. Dominate. C. Restore. D. Feed. 14. Which is the main aim of the sensory garden? A. To make the dogs adapted to their future life. B. To protect the dogs from illegal animal activities. C. To train the dogs for specific skills.D. To sharpen the dogs' sense of smell. 15. What would be the best title for the text? A. Playdoh - a lucky dog B. New challenges for dogs C. Dogs waiting for a forever home D. Dog garden 第二节（共 5 小题；每小题 2.5 分，满分 12・5 分） 阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 In springtime, many Americans take on a major project: cleaning their homes from top to bottom. We often call this kind of work "spring cleaning." Part of spring cleaning often involves clearing out clutter （杂 物）.We do away with things we no longer need. If we are to believe the many stories on Marie Kondo, the Queen of Clean, clutter adds unnecessary stress to our lives. Clutter is holding us back from our dreams and goals. 16 An expert on the subject, Sabine Kastner of Princeton University, has been studying how the brain processes clutter for 20 years. The media, Kastner says, often writes about clutter in a very simple, black-and-white way: Clutter affects the mind and we need to clear it out. But it is much more complex than that. For starters, our brains are designed to deal with clutter. Very early in the development of our eyesight, we begin to group objects that we see. 17 According to Kastner, there is not a one-size-fits-all solution. 18 In fact, some people need to see their work. If something is carefully put away, to them it does not exist anymore. Out of sight, out of mind. For other people, objects can stimulate their creativity and give them ideas. 19 Kastner notes that some people may get distracted by having lots of things around them. These people may need more organization and less clutter to work well. 20 Whether the area is cluttered or clear — they work the same. And for others it may depend on the project. For administrative work, they might need a clear workspace. But for more creative projects, they may need many things around them. It is complex. A. But is it true? B. What is working and what is not? C. Some people do not care either way. D. This helps us to structure our environment. E. People need to be able to design their workplaces. F. The idea that an uncluttered workplace is better, is not universally true. G. However, other people are unable to work in a cluttered environment. 第二部分语言运用（共两节，满分 30 分） 第一节（共 15 小题；每小题 1 分，满分 15 分） 阅读下面短文，从每题所给的 A、B、C、D 四个选项中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 The squirrel, Bella, had a rough start to life.

He always worked the evening shifts （夜班）because he was trusted to properly lock up the zoo. On a warm summer night in late June, the zoo keeper turned off the lights and wished all of his animals a good night. He left the zoo and walked to his car in the parking lot. As he reached in his pocket, he realized that his keys had been left in the office. He quickly walked back to the zoo. " When he arrived at the door, to his surprise, it was unlocked. In fear of triggering （触发）the alarm that he had just set, he did not turn on the lights. He turned on the flashlight on his phone and began to make his way to the office. When he walked by the panther's （ 豹 ） cages, he saw the young cubs playing together. He liked the zoo better at this hour because at night was when the animals come to life. At last, he made it back to the office. Unfortunately this time, the office door was locked and he knew that if he were to break the window, he would set off the alarm. Knowing there was no way inside, he decided it would be best to spend the night inside the zoo. The zoo keeper walked towards the bird cages because he knew he could sleep comfortably on the benches near the cages. A few hours later, the zoo keeper heard a door slam （砰的一声）that woke him up. "Quiet!" a voice whispered. “What? There's no one here”, another voice said. "The old man left hours ago.""Alright, let's just grab the animals and get out of here." The zoo keeper didn't know what to do. He began to weigh his options: he could trigger the alarm but that would raise questions as to why he was inside, or he could face the thieves but that could potentially put him in danger. Then he turned the comer but made sure not to be seen so that he could see who had entered the zoo.
