二、阅读理解(共4题,共 20分)

21、In China under imperial rule, National Day was a celebration of the Emperor’s birthday or his rise to the throne. On October 1, 1949, Mao Zedong declared the formation of the People’s Republic of China. 【1】 The holiday is held annually in Hong Kong, Macau, and mainland China.

The first seven days of October are referred to as the Golden Week. This is a time of travel and leisure that is celebrated differently in various parts of China. People in cities often travel to rural areas to relax and enjoy the quiet surroundings. People from urban areas also travel to other cities throughout China to take part in celebrations. 【2】 Each year, a large National Day celebration is held in Beijing’s Tiananmen Square.

Beijing’s National Day festivals are filled with military performances, food vendors, live music, and various other activities. In Beijing and other cities, musical and dance concerts are held to celebrate National Day. Crafts, painting, and a range of other activities can be enjoyed by people of various ages.

【3】 This fireworks show is approved by the Chinese government and some of the highest quality rockets and explosives are used to fill the sky with sparkling colors of gold and red.

In addition to patriotic celebrations, National Day in China is also a time for people to enjoy being with their families. Family members of all ages will often use this as an opportunity to travel to a central location to reconnect after months of working. 【4】

Although National Day is entered around patriotism and China’s history, National Day is also a time of shopping. 【5】 So people should put a bit of money to the side and use this as an opportunity to purchase some of the things that have been on their wish lists for a while.

A.On the evening, a grand and elaborate fireworks demonstration is performed.

22、In the 1950s, Japan began to focus on developing is economy. Every day, many people traveled by train between Tokyo and Osaka. Many industrial materials were also transported on those railway lines. But the Japanese railway system was so outdated that the 320-mile trip could take 20 hours. So in 1955 the Japanese railway chief asked the nation’s engineers to create a faster train.

Months later, a team managed to create a train going at a speed of 65mph — a speed that made it one of the fastest passenger trains worldwide at the time. But the railway chief wasn’t satisfied. He wanted 120mph. The engineers immediately explained that at those speeds, if a train turned too sharply, the speed would force the cars off the track.

But the railway chief didn’t change his mind. After making many attempts, the engineers eventually created a train running up to 120mph and had a big influence on the industrial design worldwide. This is an example of what a “stretch goal” (延展性目标) can achieve. When exploring psychology, I was frequently told by researchers that the most successful people tend to set goals differently from everyone else. In particular they tend to identify big, seemingly unrealistic objectives.

“Stretch goals break complacency (自满),” some scientists wrote. “By forcing a big rise in collective hopes, stretch goals can shift attention to possible new futures and perhaps lead to increased energy in the organizations. They thus can achieve more.”

This lesson can be used in the most ordinary aspects of life. Take to-do lists for instance. When making to-do lists, some people often write down tasks they can cross off right away. That’s wrong. Before writing easy tasks, you should first put down at the top of your list a big stretch goal that will constantly remind you of the main objective you’re trying to get done.

【1】What does the description of Japan’s problem in the 1950s show?

A.The public’s discontent at its train service.

B.The unfavorable economic situation of Japan.

C.The practical need to improve its railway system.

D.The unbalanced development of its transportation.

【2】How did Japanese engineers react to the railway chief’s idea at first?

A.They found it tough but worthwhile.

B.They considered it totally unrealistic.

C.They put forward their own research plan.

D.They believed it would gradually come true.

【3】What did the author often hear about when he was studying psychology?

A.How to break down big goals into smaller ones.

B.How to understand “stretch goals” matters.

C.How to create success step by step.

D.How to set goals sets people apart.

【4】The author takes the to-do lists for example to ______.

A.encourage people to keep making to-do lists daily

B.indicate we’d better first achieve easy goals

C.prove to-do lists are crucial to organizations

D.show stretch goals can apply to our daily life

【5】Which of the following does the author probably agree with?

A.A stretch goal can be a double-edged sword.

B.Ambition pushes personal and social progress.

C.Readers need to listen to members’ opinions.

D.Goals should fit in with the reality.

24、   Japanese women rebel against painful dress codes. They think some employers care more about how they look than how they feel.

Ishikawa Yumi worked eight-hour shifts in a funeral parlour (殡仪馆),always in heels, toes bleeding. Her employer insisted. "Why do we have to hurt our feet at work, when men can wear flat shoes?” she complained on Twitter. The tweet exploded. Encouraged, she gathered 18,800 signatures on a petition (请愿书)calling for a ban on employers requiring women to wear high heels, which she submitted to the government last June. Ms. Ishikawa became the face of the KuToo campaign—a pun on Japanese words for shoes (kutsu) and pain (kutsuu), with a response to the MeToo movement.

More than 60% of Japanese women with jobs have been forced to squeeze their feet into heels at work or have witnessed colleagues having to, according to a survey. Female staff at Takashimaya, a department store, must parade around the shop in 5cm heels.

Dress codes at many Japanese firms are strict. Some ban glasses for women (but not men), for fear that they are unattractive. This is especially unreasonable for those who find contact lenses(隐形眼镜)uncomfortable. Japanese bosses, who tend to be older men, often expect their female employees to endure it.

The government has dug in its heels. A former labor minister, who received Ms. Ishikawa's petition last year, insists that wearing high heels at work is “necessary and appropriate". The petition itself has received no official response to date.

But Japanese companies are slowly responding to KuToo. In late March Japan Airlines announced that its female flight attendants can kick off their heels and swap skirts for trousers if they choose. All three big mobile-phone operators have relaxed their rules on heels. Ms. Ishikawa is cooperating with a shoe company to produce fashionable heelless shoes, "Society is changing," says Ms. Ishikawa. "We can't be ignored." Pointless rules about footwear may soon be given the boot.

1Ms. Ishikawa launched the KuToo campaign in order to.

A.submit a ban on the government

B.respond to the MeToo movement

C.fight against women's dress codes

D.complain of their working conditions

2The underlined phrase “dig in its heels" in Paragraph 5 means "   ".

A.refuse to change B.ignore its work

C.oppose the rules D.postpone its duties

3Which of the following do Japanese bosses normally expect their female employees to do?

A.To wear glasses.

B.To wear trousers.

C.To wear heelless shoes.

D.To wear contact lenses.

4What is Ms. Ishikawa's attitude toward the future reform of the dress codes for Japanese women?

A.Hopeful. B.Cautious. C.Negative. D.Skeptical.

25、Bridging the gap

How does a principal investigator make communication among deaf and hearing colleagues easier? Moreover, how are the large number of field-specific technical terms _______— and communicated in sign language? These _______ differences are not remarkably challenging to work around.

Blumberg taught himself American Sign Language and has interpreters  _______ in the lab during the day. For lab meetings, journal clubs and research seminars, he has two interpreters present t0 tag-team signing. Costs for the interpreters are _______ by the NIH's Office of Research Services. The only learning curve that he experienced, Blumberg says, was realizing he needed _______ interpreters, Before, when he had one deaf student, he could _______ the interpreting. As more deaf fellows joined, Blumberg _______ full-time interpreters for help.

Having interpreters around all day is not necessary though. " _______ . interpreters are only needed during the day if we're having lab meeting, classes, important functions or events, or _______ -poster presentations, student presentations, guest presentations from ________________ scientists, Lundberg says. "The rest of the day, I do not need an interpreter, ________________ I'm in lab and it's independent work.”

During his Ph.D. at the University of Minnesota, Lundberg used online chat platforms to ________________ with his adviser and colleagues. Or he wrote ________________ a whiteboard, scratch paper, or paper towels. His adviser later ________________ that he keep the scraps of paper, which “was really good advice," Lundberg says, "because they were really good notes."

The best way to arrange the most suitable accommodations for deaf individuals is to ask them ________________ they need, says Derek Braun, a former postdoctoral fellow with Blumberg and currently a professor of biology at Gallaudet University. One of his ongoing projects is a collaboration with Blumberg and Lundberg to investigate the role of Ras guanyl nucleotide (鸟苷核苷酸)releasing proteins in cancer. ________________ deaf people sign, Braun says. "Some are oral. Really, we come in every flavor imaginable. The best judge of what that person needs is usually the person?

Signing scientific terms is not unusually challenging either. While no standardized set of signs for technical words exists, colleagues working in the same lab develop their own signs for the terms they frequently use. If each lab develops signs ________________, what happens when members of different labs meet?

Larry Pearce, a technician in Blumberg’s lab ________________ is deaf, explains to me, “ It's really not that difficult, because when an individual does not understand a sign we use, they'll ask for clarifications (说明) and I'll finger-spell. I’ll spell ________________ out. They will tell me what their sign is, and I'll tell them what our sign is. If I like their sign better, I might adopt it and use it every day, or vice-versa (反之亦然), and eventually it becomes more ________________

四、书面表达(共1题,共 5分)

26、阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。

After spending Thanksgiving on Uncle Howard’s farm, he gave us two turkey eggs. My younger brother Chris was so excited that he nearly dropped his egg on the way home. Dad put the eggs under an old hen in our backyard. Every day Chris and I would check to see if they’d hatched yet. 26 days later, two little creatures waddled (摇摇摆摆地走) behind the hen. As they got older, one was dead. We named the other Timothy.

Timothy liked to wander in the woods and find tasty berries and weed seeds. Mom kept telling us not to get too attached to Timothy, because we were going to have him for Thanksgiving. But we never paid too much attention to what that really meant. One day, Dad gave Chris and me instructions. “I want you to start giving him corn along with his regular feed,” he said. “We want a nice fat bird for Thanksgiving.” After Dad walked away, Chris’s face began to pucker, just as he did before he started to cry.

“Don’t worry, Chris,” I said comfortingly. “We’ll save Timothy, somehow.”

“Why don’t we give him away?” Chris suggested.

“No.” I said. “If we do, he’ll just end up on someone else’s Thanksgiving table.” Suddenly I had an idea. “Hey, Chris, you know that small cave in the woods?” Chris nodded. “We can take Timothy there. We’ll cover the entrance with a wire net and hide him till Thanksgiving is over.” “Yeah!” We were so excited that we gave each other high-fives. We took Timothy out of his cage and left him in the cave with water and plenty of food. We piled branches over the opening to hide the entrance.

One day Dad sent us out to look for him. Both of us felt guilty, but we wanted to save Timothy’s life, so we kept quiet. Finally, Dad decided that a fox must have gotten him. That year Uncle Howard provided a turkey for our Thanksgiving dinner. The next day a big snowstorm hit. It was days before we could get out and see Timothy. When we got to the cave, we saw something had happened.

注意:

1. 续写词数应为150左右;

2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。

The wire net was pulled away from the entrance, and Timothy was gone.
