B When Kevin Durant gave his tearful MVP speech in 2014, the NBA star made sure to thank one person who had been there with him from the very beginning: his mother. His heartfelt words about the sacrifices she made for Durant and his brother led to a lifetime movie about her journey as a single parent, The Real MVP: The Wanda Durant Story. Today, the NBA superstar’s mom travels the country as a motivational speaker and philanthropist (慈善家). On Monday, she spoke at Thomson Reuters’ in New York about her personal struggles to achieve financial stability and shared the financial advice she gave her son when he entered the league with CNBC. “I wanted him to realize he has worked hard,” she says, “And it is OK for him to enjoy himself because of his hard work. But it is also imperative that he prepares for his future.” While she advised him to enjoy the rewards of his labor, she also wanted to make sure that her son knew the importance of financial planning. She told the audience that when she found herself a single parent to two children at 21, she couldn’t follow the financial principles. Rather than planning for the future, she focused only on how her money could make ends meet for that moment. Recently, Durant has teamed up with Laurene Powell Jobs for a new philanthropic program called College Track which is aimed at helping disadvantaged kids attend college. As part of the program, Durant has committed to donating $10 million to his hometown’s public school system. Durant’s mom says that in addition to his financial decisions, she is proud of his philanthropic work and his desire to help the community. “I thought giving back was always very important, and so we talked about that and he had seen that from us as a family and it’s one of the things that I taught him,” she says. 24. What is The Real MVP: The Wanda Durant Story mainly about? A. Durant’s career path. B. Durant’s hard childhood. C. Durant’s mother’s devotion to the family. D. Durant’s mother’s struggling to be independent. 25.What does the underlined word “imperative” in paragraph 3 mean?A. Enjoyable. B. Important. C. Unusual. D. Hopeful. 26. What are the financial principles of Durant’s mom? A. Enjoying now and planning for the future. B. Sharing rewards and creating a charity program. C. Spending less money and saving for the emergencies. D. Donating money to the charity and helping more schools. 27. What made Durant pay attention to the charity program? A. His kind heart. B. His poor hometown. C. His mother’s teaching. D. His difficult life experiences. C It’s common knowledge that some countries have higher life expectancies（平均寿命） than others, but the city you live in can also affect your health. Some cities are hard on their residents. In places with poor city planning, for example Lagos, which was called out recently by the Economist Intelligence Unit, public spaces are few, making outdoor activities hard. Lack of infrastructure (基础建设) blocks the streets with cars and the air with pollutants, and residents work long hours for little money. These are just some of the factors added up by Spotahome, a rental agency. They’ve analyzed data from a range of sources, including the World Health Organization, TripAdvisor and the CIA World Facebook to score each city on health, gym availability and quality, life expectancy, obesity, green space and other elements to make a list to work out which are the world’s healthiest cities. The list is certainly Euro-centric and sunshine is seen as a positive factor. It does go some way towards suggesting which cities are getting it right in providing a good life for their residents. It may not be surprising to learn that most of the healthiest cities are in northern Europe, known for its people-first approach to city planning. The cities of Australia and Canada also do well. However, the first American city is only in 34th place. The UK doesn’t fare too well either-its only city in the top 50 list is London, in 40th. Whether you’re planning a wholesome holiday, or simply wondering what your city can do better in its quest for happy citizens, the list of the 50 healthiest cities will give you pause for thought about the future of city planning. Here are the slender, healthy-eating, clean-aired cities that are getting it right. 28. What plays the key role in building a healthy city according to the text? A. Local culture. B. City planning. C. Economic condition. D. Geographical position. 29. What does paragraph 3 mainly talk about? A. How the list of healthiest cities came into being. B. What Spotahome discovered in the recent study. C. The reasons why Spotahome carried out the study. D. The places where the data of the study came from. 30. What can we learn from the text? A. Cities in America lack enough sunshine. B. The UK ranked higher than America in the list. C. Australia and Canada have the best city planning. D. Some people in Lagos may live a poor life. 31. What may be the best title for the text? A. The best places to have a rich lifeB. The happiest lifestyle in the world C. The city factors affecting your health D. The nice countries to keep healthy D Britain faces social problems as lots of people are set to lose their jobs in technological revolution, Bank of England’s chief economist warned. Andy Haldane said the so-called Fourth Industrial Revolution will make the machine replace humans to do thinking things. The dark side of the change could be a much bigger breakdown of employment than in Victorian times, with professions such as accountancy (会计) among those at risk. A report by the accountancy firm PwC last month warned that more than 7 million jobs in Britain had been lost over the next 20 years as technological change sweeps through workplaces. The majority of these are in jobs in the retail, transport and manufacturing industries. However, other traditional professional sectors could also be at serious risk. Economists treat the arrival of increasingly intelligent computers and robots as the fourth industrial revolution. The first was the shift from agricultural to urban societies, the second saw the widespread use of electricity and steel, and the third was the digital revolution when computers, the Internet and mobile phones were developed. Mr. Haldane said the hollowing-out (空洞化) experienced in the past years could be on a greater scale（规模） in the future so it is important to learn the lessons of history and ensure that people are given training to take advantage of new opportunities. “Jobs were effectively taken by machines of various types, there was a hollowing-out of the jobs market, which left many people for a long period out of work and struggling to make a living,” Haldane added, “That heightened social and financial tensions(紧张), and led to a rise in inequality. This is the dark side of technological revolution.” “That hollowing-out is going to be potentially on a much greater scale in the future, when we have machines thinking and doing the cognitive（认知的） and technical skills of humans.” Mr. Haldane said professions like accountancy could be among those hardest hit by the rise of AI. But he suggested economists could escape. 32. What is the dark side mentioned in the text? A. The hollowing-out has become a major social problem. B. Less and less people have the desire to learn accountancy C. Intelligent computers and robots decrease good workers. D. The technological revolution causes people to lose jobs. 33. Why are economists the lucky dog in the new technological revolution? A. The study about economy is at a low level. B. Economists work on a traditional professional job. C. There is no machine that can work as an economist. D. Economists have the chance to avoid technological revolution. 34. What should be done to deal with the serious situation? A. To call for people to devote more to studying history. B. To teach people to grasp the chances technological revolution brings about. C. To warn people not to work on transport and manufacturing industries. D. To ask workers to develop and think as the intelligent computers and robots do. 35. What attitude did Haldane have towards the future employment? A. Positive. B. Aggressive.C Critical. D. Worried. 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。 Children who have developed leadership skills are sure to have a bright future. ___36___ Not only will they gain more self-esteem（自尊） and interact more easily with their peers（同龄人） they can also make an impact on their community.
