(限时:30分钟)
Ⅰ.完形填空
British people are famous for apologizing(道歉) in almost every situation. 1 we are apologizing for asking a question, for our bad weather or we sneeze(打喷嚏) before others, we are probably the number-one nation for apologies.
We pride ourselves on our polite 2 in public. As a result, we use the word “sorry” quite a lot—even when we don’t really 3 it! Usually, if you want to ask someone for the time, you would start by saying “Sorry to bother you. Do you know the time?” If you’re five minutes late for an appointment(约会), you would generally 4 the person by saying “Sorry, I’m late!”
We use the word “sorry” in so many different situations that the meaning of the word has slightly 5 over time. The two main dictionary definitions (定义) of “sorry” are: feeling sad for someone else because of their problems or feeling disappointed because you’ve done something wrong. Usually, when you want to ask a stranger a question, you 6 with “Sorry to disturb you.” In this situation, we aren’t saying sorry because we feel sad for that person or because we feel disappointed.
So what does “sorry” really mean? Well, in the British 7 , saying “sorry” is a way to be polite, especially to people who you don’t know very well. It’s also a very 8 way to get what you want. 9 , an actor asked different people on a rainy day if he could use their mobile phones. When he asked one group of strangers without apologizing first, he was only 9 per cent successful in borrowing their phones. 10 , when he apologized to another group about the bad weather before asking if he could use their mobile phones, he was 47 per cent successful. So maybe saying “sorry” is not just being polite, but it is also a good method to get what you want too!

Passage 1
When “A Youthful Asia” came out at the Asian Culture Carnival(嘉年华), tears filled my eyes. It’s Zhang Yixing, the singer and dancer standing there for us young people in China, and the very one who stopped me from falling.
Three years ago, my new school life began. As a junior boy from the countryside, I could hardly keep up. I tried, but still felt like an outsider. Nobody would pick me for teamwork. So I stayed in the corner, hanging my head low as if I didn’t care. There was a fear in me that all my school life would be colorless.
Then on May 4, I saw “colorless” in Yixing’s book about his life. How could this be true for someone just named the youth idol(青年偶像)? I read the book again, smiling with the fun part of his childhood and touched by his promise to his mum.
Something wet my eyes when he joked about his training years in Korea. He doubled his practice, pushing himself so hard as to be called “the trainee(练习生) like god”. He said it probably meant “the trainee like mad”.
I might have tried, but not as hard as he did. “Whenever I feel I might be falling, I tell myself to hold on until I find my moment,” says Yixing. For me, this moment means a better self inside and a larger world outside. So I told myself I would also make a difference if I could hold on for a longer time.
Luckily, every Youth Day after that, Yixing would be there on CCTV, encouraging me with his progress. When someone asked him what colour his training life was, Yixing smiled, “It’s colourless. I don’t know what colour effort is.”
But effort pays. Now he’s standing at the Asian Culture Carnival, and I know he is looking forward to something even bigger.

Passage 2
Isn’t spring a beautiful season? Flowers of all colours and shapes can be seen everywhere. They make our world look and smell better. So, it is no surprise that people love flowers! Well…except for one—dandelions(蒲公英)!
In order to have a tidy garden, we try our best to kill all dandelions or dig them out—only to see these unwanted plants grow right back. But that’s not bad because we have good reasons to leave them alone.
In fact, a 2014 study lists dandelions as one of the top 41 healthiest foods. Dandelions are full of vitamins(维生素) K, A, E and C.They have long been used as medicine.
Another great thing about dandelions is that you can eat every part of them, either cooked or uncooked. You can also put flowers or roots(根) in hot water to make dandelion tea. Great! Nothing goes to waste!

Besides, dandelions are fun for kids! Pick the white top, close your eyes, make a wish and blow! If you blow all of it off in one breath, your wish will come true! This game is played all over the world.
Still unwanted plants? Of course not! Dandelions are good for human health as well as our kitchen. They also provide kids with free toys! So next time when you are blowing them, blow harder—you’re helping this great plant grow in the wild, even if your own wish does not come true!
