第二部分 阅读理解(共两节,满分 50 分)
第一节(共 15 小题;每小题 2.5 分,满分 37.5 分)
阅读下列短文,从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C 和 D)中,选出最佳选项。
A
Here is a record of the discussion about AI(artificial intelligence) conducted by several scientists:
Scientist A: I would say that we are quite a long way off developing the AI, though I do think it will happen within the
next thirty or forty years. We will probably remain in control of technology and it will help us solve many of the world's
problems. However, no one really knows what will happen if machines become more intelligent than humans. They may
help us, ignore us or destroy us. I tend to believe AI will have a positive influence on our future lives, but whether that is
true will be partly up to us.
Scientist B: I have to admit that the potential consequences of creating something that can match or go beyond human
intelligence frighten me. Even now, scientists are teaching computers how to learn on their own. At some point in the near
future, their intelligence may well take off and develop at an everincreasing speed. Human beings evolve biologically very
slowly and we would be quickly substituted. In the short term, there is the danger that robots will take over millions of
human jobs, creating a large underclass of unemployed people. This could mean largescale poverty and social unrest. In
the long term, machines might decide the world would be better without humans.
Scientist C: I'm a member of the Campaign to Stop Killer Robots. Forget the movie image of a terrifying Terminator
stamping on human skulls(头骨) and think of what's happening right now: military machines like drones, gun turrets and
sentry robots are already being used to kill with very little human input. The next step will be autonomous “murderbots”
following orders but finally deciding who to kill on their own. It seems clear to me that this would be completely unethical
and dangerous for humans. We need to be very cautious indeed about what we ask machines to do.
( )21. What is Scientist B worried about?
A. AI technology will destroy the earth. B. Computers can't think by themselves.
C. Robots will take the place of humans. D. Humans will be unhappy without machines.
( )22. What can we learn about the record?
A. Scientist A thinks AI technology will never develop.
B. The employment will be affected by AI technology in the future.
C. “Murderbots” will follow the orders of their manufacturers in the wars.
D. All the three scientists agree that AI technology will benefit human beings.
( )23. Who agree(s) AI has more negative aspects than positive aspects?
A. Scientist A. B. Scientist B.
C. Scientists B & C. D. Scientists B & A.

When French students go to school, they have to leave one of their most prized possessions at home — their
smartphones. French lawmakers passed a law on July 31, 2018, banning students 15 and under from bringing smartphones
and tablets to school, or at least requiring they be turned off at school. Officials in support of the new rule described the
policy as a way to protect children from addictive habits and to safeguard the sanctity of the classroom.
“We know there is a phenomenon of screen addiction,” education minister JeanMichel Blanquer said. “Our main
role is to protect students. It is a fundamental role of education, and this law allows it.”
The law, however, makes exceptions for educational use, after school activities and for students with disabilities.
French high schools can choose to force a lessstrict ban on Internetconnected devices.
Even before the new policy was voted in, French law carried out in 2010 prohibited students from using their phones
while class was in session. But during the 2017 French presidential election, Emmanuel Macron promised to force a school
ban on phones entirely.
This isn't the first French law designed to beat back the influences of digital technology in everyday life. In 2017 the
government passed a law requiring French companies to draft rules that limited work emails and workrelated technology
outside the office. Referred to as the “right to disconnect”, French officials said the law aimed to reduce jobrelated stress
and prevent employee burnout.
“ Employees physically leave the office, but they do not leave their work. They remain attached by a kind of
electronic tie,” said Benoît Hamon, former French education minister. “The texts, the messages, the emails: they control
the life of the individual to the point where he or she eventually breaks down.”
( )24. What's the purpose of the law passed on July 31, 2018?
A. To improve the eyesight of school students.
B. To reduce the heavy burden of primary school students.
C. To prevent students getting addicted to electronic devices.
D. To help students use the mobile phones properly at schools.
( )25. What can we learn from the passage?
A. Disabled students have no ability to use electronic devices.
B. President Macron is in favour of smartphone use in school.
C. The “right to disconnect” aims to help employees with their work.
D. Primary students are facing stricter banning than high school students.
( )26. The French government passed a law in 2017 because ________.
A. workrelated technology occupied too much of individual life
B. some officials found it was a waste of time to use digital technology
C. employees had no time to use their electronic devices after work
D. employees had the ability to finish their work entirely in the office
( )27. Which column of a newspaper may the passage come from?
A. Science. B. Law.
C. Health. D. Human and society.
C
A number of companies have used the wind and sun to produce energy. Now, one company is using the force of
flowing rivers and ocean currents.
The company is based in the US state of Maine. It is called the Ocean Renewable Power Company, or ORPC. The
company recently presented the new technology at an energy conference near Washington DC Christopher Sauer, CEO and
cocreator of ORPC, says the technology was designed for small, rural communities that do not have easy access to power
sources.
The ORPC technology is an energy generator(发电机) which can be put under water, called RivGen. It works in a
series of steps. First, the generator is put in the middle of a steel cage. The cage goes on top of a wide boat with a flat
bottom called a pontoon. Wheels—or turbines—are attached to each side of the generator. Once the pontoon boat is fixed to
one place, it is flooded with water. The pontoon, cage, and generator all sink to the bottom of the river. There, the river
current twirls the wheels and creates as much as 50 kilowatts of power.
CEO Christopher Sauer says the generator is not very tall, so it can work in water areas that are not very deep. Other
companies are not able to do so, he adds.
And, Sauer says, the turbines are safe for the animals that live in the river. “At the peak of salmon season, we had
almost two million fish pass by this thing but at the end of all of that, we did not have a single fish injury as we knew.”
Sauer notes that another feature of the technology is “crossflow turbines”. The turbines can move in the same
direction, no matter what way the water is flowing.
Sauer says the turbines' shape permits the generator to harvest power from tidal(潮汐的) currents in the ocean. The
company's ocean turbine is called TidGen. It can create up to 600 kilowatts of electricity, enough to power a small
settlement.
Right now, the amount of power TidGen can harvest changes as the strength of the tide goes up and down. But ORPC
workers are trying to make the power output steady. In time, they want TidGen power to be part of the main energy grid(输
电网).
CEO Christopher Sauer says ORPC's current price is about 50 cents per kilowatthour. That price does not make the
ORPC system competitive with natural gas. However, for small, rural communities, diesel(柴油) energy can cost more than
$1 per hour. In these situations, energy from flowing water could be more economical.
( )28. What does the underlined word “twirls” in Paragraph 3 mean?
A. Strikes. B. Turns. C. Pulls. D. Supports.
( )29. How is the ORPC technology unique?
A. It can work in shallow water.
B. It is comparatively cheaper.
C. It does no harm to animals living in the water.
D. It can change the direction of water flowing.
( )30. What are ORPC workers trying to do with TidGen?
A. Reduce its operating costs. B. Stabilise its energy output.
C. Improve its working efficiency. D. Widen its range of applications.
( )31. Which is the most suitable title for the passage?
A. Advantages of Getting Electricity from River and Tidal Currents
B. Steps to Produce Energy from Flowing Rivers and Ocean Currents
C. A New Solution to Energy Shortage in Small and Rural Communities
D. New Technology to Harvest Energy from River and Tidal Movement
D
Professional courses, such as Masters in International Business or MIB, have been taken by many students in the last
two decades. They are choosing newage nonconventional courses that guarantee a better future. MIB is a specialised
course that teaches the international business. There are valid reasons for so much popularity of MIB course.
The course content and teaching methods of MIB are quite different from a normal MBA or Master of Business
Administration. It has been designed with the sole objective of developing professionals with an indepth understanding and
knowledge of the international trade. The course offers various advantages over the conventional MBA degree course.
The massive increase in the international business and foreign trade gives excellent job prospects to the new generation.
Acquiring a degree of MIB offers outstanding growth of job opportunities. Those who want to pursue in the field of
marketing also have a good future after completing the degree from a reputed MIB college. Big multinational organisations
look for talented people who can handle the job profile of International Marketing Management, and people with MIB
degrees are preferred. The profile needs an indepth understanding of the overseas markets, because it is the strategic post
from the perspective of company's international business growth.
Since business finance and economics are covered at length in the curriculum of MIB, students have great job offers in
the field of finance as well. Typically, organisations offer the profile of international finance controllers to those who
complete MIB with the specialisation of finance. The specialisation covers aspects of international taxes, accounts,
budgeting and so on. People in this field are wellpaid, and growth prospects are unlimited. After completing degree course
from a reputed MIB college, there is a good scope in the banking and finance sector as well. International banks appoint
people who have an excellent grasp over the international banking policies, currency exchange, and international policies.
Thus, MIB is the golden key to success with brilliant job opportunities in national and multinational sectors.
( )32. The second paragraph is mainly developed by ________.
A. analysing causes B. listing figures
C. making comparisons D. proving definition
( )33. More and more people intend to acquire a degree of MIB because ________.
A. it is a compulsory course in the colleges
B. it offers them conventional economic knowledge
C. it offers them opportunities to do small business
D. it helps them get good jobs in some organisations
( )34. What can we learn from the last paragraph?
A. The international finance controller is a highquality job.
B. People get higher salary in business field than in finance field.
C. MIB holders are more promising in all careers than others.
D. International banks only accept employees from MIB colleges.
( )35. What's the author's purpose of writing this passage?
A. To make an advertisement for the MIB course.
B. To analyse the disadvantages of the MIB course.
C. To explain why the MIB course is getting popular.
D. To predict the development trend of the MIB course.

Word travels quickly in the small fishing village of Port Washington, Wisconsin. So when Mardy McGarry wanted to
build a playground for kids with special needs, she knew it wouldn't take long to create interest in the project. But she never
expected that a third of the town people would join in it. __36__
“A lot of learning comes through play,”says McGarry, a special education teacher for 28 years. She'd seen the wood
chips and sand of traditional playgrounds stop wheelchairs dead in their tracks.
When a piece of land became available, the city council agreed to choose a part for a playground. __37__ She asked
classrooms of kids for their wish list. She also asked experts for help. And she brought on board her friend Sue Mayer,
whose eightyearold son, Sam, has a serious disease.
Her Kiwanis Club chapter came through with $7,000, and that's when the grassroots movement really got started. One
woman gave $25,000 and had her company donate the same amount. __38__ There were silent auctions(拍卖) and Tshirt
sales. The local Pieper Family Foundation offered to donate half of the remaining $170,000 balance if McGarry could raise
the rest. The $450,000 covered materials, but the actual construction would cost an additional $900,000. Not a choice. But
the community could build it.
On September 16, 2008, the first day of construction, they came. Two women heard about the project on the radio on
the way to work and took the day off to help. __39__ Tenyearolds sanded surfaces.
Today, Possibility Playground is one of the most popular destinations in Ozaukee County. There's a giant pirate ship, a
rockclimbing wall, high and low rings, monkey bars, sandboxes, swings, slides, bridges and so on.
__40__ It's exactly what McGarry wanted. People used to ask why she wanted to build a playground just for children
with disabilities. “They didn't get it. It's only when you build a playground for children with disabilities that you build one
for all children,” she said.
A. Soon smaller businesses were helping.
B. All children play shoulder to shoulder.
C. But her students were too often left out.
D. Everyone thought it was really a great wonder.
E. A couple in their 80s operated their own trucks.
F. McGarry started researching play equipment and contacting design firms.
G. They rolled up their sleeves and used their weekdays to bring her idea to life.

to each other, but, one day, __52__ the silence, they got talking. As time passed, they became friends, until one day they

阅读下面短文,根据所给情节进行续写,使之构成一个完整的故事。
I grew up in a small town where elementary school was a tenminute walk from my house and in an age, not so long
ago, when we children could go home for lunch and find our mothers waiting. At the time, I didn't consider this to be so
important, although today it certainly would be. Actually, our lunch time together in the past years had had a great influence
on my life before I realised it.
Our lunch time when I was in the third grade will stay with me always. I had been picked to be the princess in the
school play, and for weeks my mother had painstakingly practised my lines with me. But no matter how easily I delivered
them at home, as soon as I stepped onstage, every word disappeared from my head. Finally, my teacher took me aside. She
explained patiently that she needed a narrator and had written a narrator's part to the play, and asked me to switch roles. Her
words, kindly delivered, still hurt me, especially when I saw my part go to another girl.
I didn't tell my mother what had happened when I went home for lunch that day. But she sensed my unease, and instead
of suggesting we practise my lines, she asked if I wanted to walk in the yard. It was a lovely spring day and the rose vine(藤)
was turning green. Under the huge trees, we could see yellow dandelions(蒲公英) appearing unexpectedly through the grass
in bunches, as if a painter had touched our landscape with small amounts of gold. I watched my mother casually bend down
by one of the bushes. “I think I'm going to dig up all these weeds,” she said, pulling a blossom up by all its roots. “From
now on, we'll have roses in this garden.” I immediately protested, “But I like dandelions. All flowers are beautiful—even
dandelions.”

1. 所续写短文的词数应为 150 左右;

口袋中掉出来。
42. C 解析:联系下文“He's trying to mess up the front of my house.”可知,邻居以为他是想把自己的房子前弄得

One possible version:
Dear Henry,
I'm very delighted to write a letter to tell you something about the Chinese papercutting exhibition, which will start on
June 20 in our school lecture hall and last for a week. As is wellknown to us all, Chinese papercutting is famous all over
the world and I'm sure you will be interested in it. So I plan to invite you to pay a close visit. The exhibition is a collection
of works created by some famous papercutting artists in China. During the activity, I will show you around our school and
this is a good chance for you to enjoy yourself and learn more about Chinese traditional culture.
Would you please have a look at the exhibition with me? I'd appreciate it if you could accept my invitation. I'm looking
forward to receiving your reply as soon as possible.
Yours sincerely,
Li Hua
第二节 读后续写(满分 25 分)
One possible version:
Paragraph 1:
“Do you mean that every flower has its own beauty?” asked my mother thoughtfully. I nodded without hesitation,
as if a second wasted could deprive the dandelions of their life. “The same to you,” she added, her voice soft. “Not
everyone can be a rose, and it is also an honour to be a dandelion.” Knowing that my mother had realised my pain, I took
off the mask that I had worn for the whole lunch time and poured out my unease heartily. She listened to me patiently and
patted me on the back tenderly. Suddenly she stopped, as if to say something.
Paragraph 2:
“But you will be a beautiful narrator,” Mom said. She reminded me of how fluently I could deliver my part at home.
It was at that time that I understood that maybe I was more suitable for a role back stage like a narrator. From then on, I
practised my lines heart and soul with my mother at lunch time for weeks. And the performance approached ultimately.
Standing backstage, nervousness came flooding in me. What encouraged me to overcome it was the inspiration from the
beautiful yellow dandelions. The performance that night was eventually a big success. Hearing the thunderous applause, I
took pride in my role and firmly believed that even a dandelion had its own beauty.

M: What are you working on, honey?
W: It's a school project about the Earth and its place in the universe. I have to write a report and build a model of what
scientists can see with a telescope in space.
M: I can help you. I was always good at science at school, especially astronomy. Well, is that the report you're writing
right now?
W: Yes, Dad. Any suggestions?
M: Make sure you include all the planets in the solar system. Don't forget to talk about the Big Bang. Oh yeah, and talk
about travelling through space and how many light years it would take.
W: Dad, I do plan to. Guess what? I'm also going to include some other stars and bodies in the Milky Way in my model,
but the teacher didn't say we had to, so...
M: Good idea! Including some of those would set your project apart from the others, don't you think? Just do it, and I
believe your project would be fantastic.
W: Sure. Thank you, Dad. I'll give it a try.

test when the new term starts again, so they've been having their French lessons every evening.
W: Wow, you really are a tiger parent!
M: Tiger what?
W: I mean you push your kids to achieve success at school. “Tiger parenting” describes a particularly strict way of
bringing up kids.
M: Well, let's say we just want what's best for our kids even if they don't appreciate it yet! I never got to relax as a kid.
My tiger mother had me up at 7 am. practising the violin at weekends.
W: We've decided to let little Bruno do whatever he wants, whenever he wants. I'm worried tiger parenting would
make him stressed out.
M: Well, how to be a good parent is always a subject of debate. Tiger parenting is no exception. It all depends on your
values, really.

Hello, listeners. Welcome once again. I'm Rob. In this programme, we are talking about what we can eat before going
to bed. Traditional wisdom says that we shouldn't eat before bed, but that's not necessarily true. Some experts are now
recommending that you go ahead and make a habit of having a healthy bedtime snack in order to keep your blood sugar
levels steady and provide the energy necessary to keep burning fat all night long. Eating before bed can help you fall asleep
as well. Feelings of hunger can be uncomfortable and can make it difficult for you to fall asleep. However, wrong foods
before bed can be troublesome. Anyway, as long as you make a good choice, there's a good reason to have a little bedtime
snack.
