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。

“You are the comfort of my life, Effie. If you make up your mind to go away, what is to become of me?”

The speaker was a middle-aged woman. Her pleading words were emphasized by her tired eyes and worn face. She looked full at the young girl to whom she spoke.

“What shall I do without you, and what will your father say?”

“I have made up my mind,” said Effie. “I don’t want to be unkind to you, mother,—I love you more than words can say,—but I must go out into the world. I must live my life like other girls.”

“You had none of these ideas until you met Dorothy.”

“Yes, I have had them for a long time; Dorothy has given them emphasis. T hat’s all. Before I go, mother, I will get Agnes to learn all my duties; she shall help you.”

“She would not be like you,” replied Mrs. Staunton. “She is very young, remember, and is at school most of the day.”

Effie sighed. She bent down and kissed her mother.

“You do not know what it means to me,” she said. “When Dorothy talks of the full life, the keen interest, the battle, the thrill of living, I feel that I must go into it—I must. You are sending George out into the world to win his spurs, and I am going to win mine.”

“In what way?” asked Mrs. Staunton. “You know you are not clever.”

“Dorothy thinks I can be a nurse, mother. May she come and see you, and talk it all over?”

“What is the use of my seeing her? Your father is the one to decide.”

“I shall be a greater comfort to you when I send you money from London. Now, don’t speak another word. I will put the children to bed, and I will look after baby myself, while you close your eyes and go to sleep.”

Effie pressed her warm young lips on the older w oman’s brow, and then ran out of the room.

21. Why does the Effie want to leave home?

A. Because her parents want her to support the family.

B. Because there are too many children in the family.

C. Because her mother was sick at that time.

D. Because she wants to live her own life.

22. In the mother’s eyes, who influences Effie’s decision to leave most?

A. Effie’s mother.

B. Effie’s father.

C. Dorothy.

D. George.

23. What kind of girl is Effie?

A. Persistent and rude.

B. Determined and considerate.

C. Tough and humorous.

D. Disagreeable and stubborn.

24. What will Effie do after the passage?

A. Take care of the children.

B. Get away from the house.

C. Find Dorothy and stay with her.

D. Go back to her room to sleep.

The FBI announced on Monday that it had successfully hacked (入侵) into an iPhone used by a gunman responsible for a mass shooting in California. The announcement left tech giant Apple Inc. wondering about the security of one of its key products. And the FBI will not tell how it got past the locks.

The news ends a legal battle that began more than a month ago, when the FBI got a court order from a federal judge demanding that Apple help them to access the data on the phone. The phone had belonged to Farook. On December 2, 2015, Farook and Malik killed 14 people and wounded 22 others in San Bernardino, California. The two were killed a few hours after the attack. The next day, an FBI team found Farook’s iPhone 5c in the car. When investigators turned on the phone, it asked them to enter a four-digit pass code. The phone was set to erase all of its data after

10 incorrect guesses. Not even Apple, the company that made the phone, had the code. The FBI asked Apple to help them get access to the information stored in the phone.

Apple helped the FBI with its investigation, but only to a certain point. The FBI then asked Apple to create a new version of the phone’ s operating system, one without the 10-guess limit. But Apple refused. Cook argued that if Apple created a tool to hack into an iPhone, and that tool got into the wrong hands, the security of every iPhone would be at risk.

Cook noted that people store “an incredible amount of personal information” on their iPhones. “That information,” he said, “needs to be protected from hackers and criminals. While we believe the FBI’s intentions are good, it would be wrong for the government to force us to build a backdoor into our products.”

On March 21, the FBI announced that an “outside party” had come forward with a possible way to break into the phone. Now, having confirmed that the code has been cracked, the FBI has dropped the legal battle with Apple.

25. The FBI wants to gain access to the phone to ________.

A. locate Farook and arrest him

B. monitor Farook and his teammates

C. get the information stored in it

D. help create an operating system

26. The underlined word “erase” may be closest in meaning to ________.

A. restore

B. delete

C. update

D. replace

27. Cook refused to help the FBI for fear that ________.

A. the FBI will know how to establish the operating system

B. Apple will lose the battle against the FBI

C. Apple’s users will know the producer has no codes

D. it may cause security problems for the iPhone users

28. Which of the following can be the best title of the passage?

A. Legal Battle Between Apple and FBI

B. Worst Terrorist Ever in History

C. Security Concerns of Apple

D. Apple Helps FBI in Fighting Terrorism

Submitting your formal loan request

Loan requests should be made by formal letters at least one year in advance of the exhibition or display opening date. Letters should be addressed to: Dr. Hartwig Fischer, Director British Museum, London, WC1B 3DG, UK or email to directorate@https://www.wendangku.net/doc/dc13537311.html,.

Security and facilities documentation

Before the loan agreement is signed, the borrower will be asked to complete Standard Facilities Reports which will provide essential information connected with venue, access, security, environmental and display conditions.

Further information

Usually, when you quit a job, you don’t expect your former employer’s parting gift.

Well, at least some employees at a company have walked away with a large amount of money on their way to new opportunities. Bloomberg reports that an online store Adore Me—founded in 2011 and based in New York—has handed a few departing employees a check for $10,000. In one case, an employee was leaving the company to spend time traveling, while another left to move across the country. Therefore, it’s not like they were leaving to work for a major competitor, like Victoria’s S ecret.

W hy aren’t more Adore Me employees quitting to take advantage of the big payout? Bloomberg notes that the departure check is only provided on certain occasions, so there is no guarantee that leaving the company will come with a $10,000 parting gift. Adore Me’s CEO, Morgan, told Bloomberg that the payouts provide a chance to some employees to stay with a company that is so kind to workers who, the CEO says, put in a lot of hard work and effort. Meanwhile, potential employees may also be attracted to the company after hearing news of its generous parting gifts.

It’s unclear how well Adore Me’s strateg y (策略) of handing out checks to former employees will work when it comes to keeping and inspiring current workers, much less whether it will help attract new talents.

The start-up isn’t the first to try this practice. Earlier this year, e-commerce company Boxed created a non-profit to cover the college tuition of its employees’ children, while another company has used rewards from its corporate (公司的) credit cards to pay for employees’ personal travel.

32. An employee in Adore Me may ________ according to Paragraph 2.

A. receive a check to settle down in New York

B. leave to work for Victoria’s Secret

C. get a check for $ 10,000 when leaving the company

D. have $ 10,000 as long as they leave

33. Victoria’s Secret ________.

A. does the same as Adore Me

B. is the branch of Adore Me

C. is a travel agency

D. is Adore Me’s competitor

34. What the CEO of Adore Me implies that ________.

A. one of their purposes is to attract potential employees

B. this policy is aimed to compete with Victoria’s Secret

C. all the employees in the company work very hard

D. more and more employees will quit their job to leave

35. Based on the last two paragraphs, we can know that ________.

A. the strategy will surely attract new workers

B. some companies are trying to keep and inspiring their workers

C. Boxed is the first company to cover the employees’ tuition

D. many companies are learning from Adore Me

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。

It may help you to know that there is no such thing as a perfect speech. At some point in every speech, every speaker says something that is not understood exactly as he has planned. 36 . Why? Because the listeners do not know what the speaker plans to say. 37 . If you lose your place for a moment, wrongly change the order of a couple of sentences, or forget to pause at a certain point, no one will be any the wis er. When such moments occur, don’t worry about them.

38 .

Even if you do make an obvious mistake during a speech, that doesn’t really matter. Most likely, however, you don’t remember. 39 . Speech-makers care a lot about making mistakes in a speech because they regard speech-making as a kind of performance rather than as an act of communication. 40 . But, in fact, the listeners are not looking for a performance. They are looking for a well-thought-out speech that expresses the speaker’s ideas clearl y and directly.

Sometimes a mistake or he can actually increase a speaker’s attractiveness by making him more human.

A. They feel the listeners are like judges in an ice-skating competition

B. They hear only what the speaker does say

C. The speech-makers think the audience care little about their appearance

D. Because you were fixing your attention on your own message

E. Reconsider what your audience would like to hear

F. Fortunately, the moments are usually not obvious to the listeners

G. Just continue as if nothing happened

Sometimes people come into your life and you know right away that they are meant

to be there. They serve some sort of 41 in order to teach a lesson or help 42 who you are or who you want to become. You never know 43 these people may be —your roommate, neighbor, professor, long-lost friend, lover or even a complete

44 , but when you keep an eye on them, you know at that very moment that they will

45 your life in some great way.

And sometimes things happen to you and they may seem 46 , horrible and unfair at the time, but 47 overcoming those obstacles, you would never have realized your potential, strength, willpower or heart. Everything happens for a (n) 48 . Nothing happens by 49 or by means of good or bad luck. Illness, injury, love, lost moments of true greatness and stupidity—all occur to 50 the limits of your soul. Without these small tests life would be like a smoothly paved, straight, flat road to nowhere, safe and comfortable but dull and 51 .

The people you meet who affect your life and the successes and 52 you experience—they are the ones that create who you are. Even the 53 experiences can be learned from.

If someone hurts you, betrays you or breaks your heart, 54 them, for they have helped you learn about 55 and the importance of being 56 about whom you open your heart to. If someone loves you, love them back 57 , not only because they love you, but because they are teaching you to love and open your heart and eyes to things you would 58 have seen or felt without them.

Make every day 59 . Appreciate every moment and take from it everything that you possibly can, for you may never be able to experience it again.

“People are like tea bags—you have to put them in hot water before you know how 60 they are.”

41. A. purpose B. plan C. way D. idea

42. A. put out B. give out C. take out D. figure out

If women are persuaded to buy too many clothes year after year, they only have themselves to blame.

书面表达

Dear Mr. Principal,

I am Peter, a high school student in America, I learned the news on TV that the accidents

happens to the Chinese students in PE classes. I suggest that your school should organize a first aid course, which is very useful.

The reasons why a first aid course is necessary are as follows: we students are lack of first aid knowledge. A first aid course can satisfy our needs of first aid knowledge. Besides, it will give information about many more situations and give us the chance to practise first aid treatments.

As for the course, it can be given monthly. The course should mainly concern the practice of first aid treatments. It couldn’t be better if the experts in first aid were introduced to instruct the course.

Yours sincerely,

Peter

M: I really want to go to the Cherry Blossom Festival at the Japan Center, but I hate driving and parking in San Francisco.

W: Perhaps we should take public transportation. Let’s go online and check the bus schedule.

Text2.

M: Edward, would you like to go for a hike?

M: Thanks for the invite, Valerie, but I’ll have to pass. My knees are very sore from running all week. W: Oh, okay. Some other time.

Text3.

M: Where are you from?

M: I was born in China, but I moved to the States in 1990 when I was seven years old.

W: That was more than 20 years ago. Can you still speak Chinese?

M: Yes, very well. I speak Chinese at home with some of my older relatives.

Text4.

M: Why is it so cold today? I thought the weather report said it was supposed to be sunny and warm…

M: Well, it is supposed to be nice later this afternoon. The fog should burn off by lunchtime and this wind should die down, too.

M: Well like in tennis, you have a court with two sides. You start out with a bunch of balls in the middle of the court. When the whistle blows , you run and try to grab a ball to throw at someone, or you can stand back to defend yourself.

W: How do you defend yourself?

M: Well, if a person throws a ball at you, you either don’t let the ball hit you, or you can catch the ball, which means the person who threw the ball is out and has to leave the court.

W: And what happens if the ball hits you?

M: You’re out.

W: Is it a dangerous game?

M: Not really. The balls are made of rubber, but some kids can throw very fast, and if a ball hits you in the face, it’s not pleasant.

W: How do you win the game?

M: Well, the game ends when one side has no more players left, and the other team wins.

W: It sounds fun.
