Fill in each blank with the word or phrase that best fits the context. For years, life went something like this: We’d grow up in one place, head off to college, then find a city to live in for a few years to pursue a job or higher education. The end goal was to find somewhere to ___21___ for the long trip, buy a house, make a few friends, start a family, and begin the whole ___22___ all over again. But a new model for living is emerging: Some people are increasingly choosing to move from city to city throughout their entire lives, sometimes as ___23___ as every month. Just ask Alex Chatzielefteriou, who has had a front-row seat watching this evolution ___24___ and believes in the huge impact it is making or will make on the industry concerned. Six years ago, he ___25___ a start-up which is now called Blue-ground that rents out beautiful-designed, ___26___ apartments for a month at a time, at rates that are cheaper than hotels. Today, the company has 3,000 ___27___ in six U. S. cities, along with Dubai, Istanbul, London, Paris, and Alex’s native Athens, and a staff of 400. The company just ___28___ $50 million in Series B funding, bring its total investment to $78 million, to continue its repaid ___29___. It hopes to have 50,000 estates in 50 cities over the next three years, and the goal is to make each one feel unique and comfortable, rather than ______30______,like what you might find in a traditional hotel. Alex first came up with the idea for Blue-ground while he was working as a management consultant for McKinsey. “The ______31______ of choice for consultants is the hotel,” he says. “I had to spend five years in a hotel room, ______32______ in twelve different cities. I loved seeing the world, but I didn’t love feeling like I didn’t have a home.” As he spoke to his friends and coworkers, he realized that many people buried themselves in ______33______ due to this drifting lifestyle that meant living out of a suitcase in the same few non-descript hotel chains that all began to mix together rather than in the “home” full of their own memories. ______34______, Alex found the hotels aren’t particularly cost-effective solution for companies, either. 2 ______35______, McKinsey sometimes paid $10,000 or more for him to stay in a major city for a month, which was far more expensive than local rents.

Fill in each blank with the word or phrase that best fits the context. Technology is playing a vital role in preservation and ecology research. Drones (无人机) hold huge __41__ in the fight to save the world’s remaining wildlife fromextinction. So researchers can now track wild animals through dense forests and monitor whales in vast oceans. It’s estimated that up to five living species become extinct every day, making it urgent that universities develop new technologies to capture the data that can persuade __42__ to act. The British International Education Association hosted a conference in January to __43__ the importance of technological solutions in protecting vulnerable ( 易 受 伤 害 的 ) species and ecosystems. Speakers underlined how technology can help __44__: drones can circle high above the ocean to spot whales, while certain cameras can identify members of an individual species. According to Claudio Sillero, biology professor at Oxford University, technology is changing how preservation research is done — but it’s in a(n)__45__ way. As technology gets better and cheaper, researchers become better at doing what they were already doing. __46__, remote sensing used to be a very technical tool but is now widespread, and everyone uses global positioning system (GPS) for surveying. But teaching preservation and ecology courses in university __47__. Some teach drone surveying methods in depth while others don’t even mention them. “The fact is, using drones is quite a(n) __48__ to the interdisciplinary (跨学科的) ‘unknown’ of engineering, and potentially an area where lecturers may not feel confident to teach yet,” Serge Wich, an expert in primate biology says. “Students are taught about __49__ technologies such as automatic sound recorders, but drones are often missing from university teaching. Consequently, drone use among researchers is still fairly __50__ and focused on getting photos.” Wich’s team of researchers used techniques to develop a fully automated drone technology system that __51__and monitors the health of endangered animals globally. It’s designed to be cheap, stable and simple to use, so that local communities in developing countries can operate it __52__ without technical background. Yet it’s not more widely used on the grounds of researchers’ lack of skills to use this technology. In biology, where drones are used, few can program an algorithm (算法) specifically for their preservation or research 7 problem. “There’s much that needs to be done to __53__ those two worlds and to make AI more user-friendly so that people who can’t program can still use the technology,” Wich says. __54__, the sad truth is that better technology alone will not save any more species from dying out, Greengrass warns. “As human populations increase, so do threats and pressure on wild places. Preservationists are __55__ for not doing enough but it’s often an issue of people, conflict and governance.” Technology may help provide far greater knowledge, but governments still need to act. 41. A. shortage B. threats C.potential D. responsibilities 42. A. researchers B.authorities C. oponents D. professionals 43. A.highlight B. overlook C. assess D. calculate 44.

Fill in each blank with the word or phrase that best fits the context. Our modern working lives are ruled by the concept of competence(能力). The idea that lies behind competence is quite simple: that one can state what people should do in behavioral terms, and then ___41___ whether a person has succeeded in meeting that task or not. We rarely have a second thought about whether the idea of measuring and achieving competence is a good one or not. ___42___, it is a debatable one. Humans do not learn or work in ways that can be measured by the ___43___ of competence. Take the example of a barista who is being trained to make coffee. The job title of “barista” ___44___ a degree of skill in making coffee. However, baristas in large coffee chains are usually trained through ___45___ qualifications. One part of these qualifications is to produce a cup of coffee to meet a(n) ___46___ standard. It might have to achieve a certain taste and appearance. This might seem perfectly reasonable, but there are two reasons why such an approach to training baristas does not ___47___. First, the production of a cup of coffee to a certain standard is a binary (二次元的) ___48___. The baristas can either produce a coffee of a certain standard or they cannot. If they happen to produce the best cup of coffee in the world, it does not matter, as competence-based training does not reward outstanding performance. ___49___, producing the worst cup of coffee would be a fail in the same way as producing a cup just below the standard. In fact, competence is not interested in the process of producing a coffee at all—only the final binary outcome. Second, if the barista does produce a coffee to a certain ____50____, competence is not interested in why the barista can do that. But humans are not machines that ____51____ produce binary outcomes. We have bodies and minds which ____52____ through learning. Yet we are increasingly forced to ____53____ competence in our schools and workplaces. We are not empty machines that simply produce binary outcomes. If we want to be true human in our learning and our workplaces, we need to be ____54____ and special. Learning and innovation involve failure in aiming for something that is 9 unusually good. Such things simply cannot be ____55____ by the standard of competence where the mediocre (平 凡的) is the gold standard. 41. A. question B. predict C. measure D. confirm 42. A. As a rule B.

Fill in each blank with the word or phrase that best fits the context. Throughout history, many lives have been lost at the hands of severe weather. Meteorologists (气象学家) and scientists alike are always investigating new ways to increase the warning time for storms, with the hope of reducing the __41__ of lives. In the past few decades, local weather radar advancements have been made, which allow for better accuracy in __42__ the paths of storms. Meteorologists and scientists have been able to successfully track severe thunderstorms and possible tornadoes by using an advanced tracking system called NEXRAD (Next-Generation Radar). NEXRAD is a tracking network __43__ 158 Doppler weather radars. And during a storm this high-resolution computerized __44__ takes readings on the amount of precipitation (降水) in the air, the movements in the clouds, and the wind speeds. 13 These __45__ are bounced back to a local weather computer, and a colorful image appears on the screen, giving meteorologists a clear picture of what kind of weather is on the horizon. This final image is what you see when the meteorologist breaks in with severe weather reports and warnings. __46__, on your television screen you will see a computer animated image of the approaching storm. If the storm is severe enough, then the National Weather Service (NWS) will __47__ severe weather reports of severe thunderstorm warnings for your area. __48__, the storm captured on the radar will have produced strong readable winds, detectable lightning, and some hail (冰雹). Paying attention to the weather map is __49__ when severe weather is around. On the television screen you will see several colors on the precipitation map, __50__ from blue (the lightest) to black (the heaviest). If the colors for your __51__ area are yellow, take caution. If the colors range between orange and red, take cover immediately, as damaging winds and dangerous lightning have been reported. When local weather radar in Atlanta, Georgia reported high winds, __52__ wind patterns and large hail earlier this year, the National Weather Service issued a tornado __53__. Meteorologists in the area used the collected data to predict what path the storm would take, __54__ which areas needed to be warned. Thanks to this technology, most residents received the severe weather reports early enough to seek __55__ before the storm hit. Paying attention to your local weather source during severe weather plays a vital role in your safety. 41.A. loss B. increase C. protection D. value 42.A. changing B. controlling C. predicting D. guiding 43.A. faced with B. exposed to C. involved in D. made up of 44.A. structure B. system C. mode D. style 45.A. figures B. data C. readings D. statistics 46.

Harvard Library If we compare professors and students to the host of a university, then the library of a university can be compared to the hallway. The quality of a university, __51__, is in direct proportion to that of its library. At Harvard, the library is an essential part of everybody’s life. Both the quantity and the __52__ of the library make study a pleasant process. 15 Harvard Library is not only the most ancient library in the United States, but the largest university library with the largest scale. In 1638 John Harvard __53__ his whole library to the then Harvard College. After 300 years of development, the library now holds 10 million books and __54__ more than 100 branch libraries.

The libraries for undergraduates will even be open all night during the __59__ period. The libraries also provide with students the service of __60__ reading materials for all courses. At the beginning of a semester, each teacher will give a list of books to the librarians. The librarians are __61__ to find out these books and put them at the places where students can easily find them. There is no limitation for the number of books that students can borrow. As the space for the library is limited, many books are __62__ in suburban library. Despite this, students can go to fetch the book at the __63__ library within 24 hours after they submit request for that book. Even if there is only one book to be fetched from the suburban library, the libraries on campus will send someone to do the job. This kind of __64__ which put readers in the first place is rare even in Ivy League.
