During one visit, he was saying good night to a teenage patient when he had a bright idea.‎ Steve told the teenager to look out of the window after he left. Outside, Steve flickered(闪烁)his bike light up toward the hospital. To his surprise, the teen responded, flickering his own room lights right back.‎ Every night after that, Steve flickered his light, and more and more kids flickered back. When he mentioned it to a friend working at a restaurant, the owner said he wanted in too. He started to flick the restaurant sign for one minute every night at 8:30. Soon enough, the customers started joining in with flashlights and cell phones. Almost by accident, a simple gesture was changing into a powerful connection between local people and sick children.‎ Now more than 20 groups are on board for the *:30 p.m. flicker. Every Wednesday night, police officers line up their cars and flash them. Even boats on the river join in to give their bright good-night wave to kids who are going through frightening situations and sleeping in a strange place.‎ ‎“It is all I look forward to basically all day” says Abigail Waldron, aged ten. “ It just shows you that somebody is helping you through your whole experience in the hospital.”‎ ‎“It would be very hard not to do this,” says Steve, “ once you start.” The most powerful of all,‎ ‎ he adds, comes from the families of children who have died. They continue to return to the hospital to flicker a light outside in support of children who are still patients.‎ ‎24. Why did Steve Brosnihan flicker his bike light?‎ A. To comfort a teenage patient. ‎ B.To get light for the hospital. ‎ C. To inform the patients of his leaving.‎ D. To expect a response from a teenager.‎ ‎25. What does the last sentence in Para. 3 mean?‎ A. Love makes the world go round.‎ B. Actions speak louder than words. ‎ C.A small action can make a difference. ‎ D. Great minds think alike. ‎ ‎26. What can we learn from Waldron’s words?‎ A. He likes to flicker lights. ‎ B. He gets warmth from the lights. ‎ C. He is frightened of treatment. ‎ D. He likes the boat light. ‎ ‎27. Which of the following can be the best tile for the text?‎ A. Treatment for Sick Children B.The powerful Lights ‎ C. A Warmhearted D. Lights Flickering in the Hospital C With the ever-increasing popularity of online shopping, users’ reviews are becoming more and more important. Given that you can’t actually touch, see, smell or hear the product you’re buying online, these reviews provide buyers valuable information on the product itself. But how far can you trust them?‎ Barnaby Bicken had an unpleasant experience. “I took some friends to a restaurant in Manchester that had excellent review on a food website. However, the service was awful and we were ignored most of the time. Later, I wrote a review to the same site only to be told that the review site owner would not accept any bad reviews—only the good ones.‎ So, how can you get a useful review? Web expert Hilary Saunders has a few top tips. “If there are only a few reviews of a place, there is a good chance they have been planted by friends or enemies. If there are many reviews, start by dropping the most extreme comments. Also, watch out for similarities in style between reviews from people with different usernames, particularly if those reviews were placed about the same time. The best thing is to look for reviewers who show some relevant knowledge of the product they are reviewing.‎ Some companies seem to be contributing to the problem. A publishing house offered gift vouchers(礼券) to anyone who would give their textbook a five-star review. But not all online companies operate like this. “Amazon works hard to keep the completeness of its customer reviews,” said a spokesperson for the company. “We have very clear guidelines, and when a customer reports a review that they feel is inappropriate, we check, and may take it down. ‎ So, next time you see that 5-star review for something you want to buy, be aware—it could be the work of a false reviewer!‎ ‎28. What does “them” in Para. 1refer to?‎ A. Products. B. Users. C. Buyers. D. Reviews.‎ ‎29. What does Barnaby Bicken’s story imply?‎ A. The food served was awful. ‎ B.He likes to write bad reviews ‎ C. Many people are easily cheated.‎ D. Not all reviews are believable. . ‎ ‎30. What reviews of products are useful?‎ A. Those with related information. ‎ B. Those by different users. ‎ C. Those with good comments. ‎ D.Those by competitors . ‎ ‎31. How does Amazon deal with the customer reviews?‎ A. Helps to finish the reviews.‎ B. Pays attention to the bad reviews.‎ C.Tries to make the reviews objective. ‎ D. Offers gifts for the good reviews.‎ D As missing children age, they outgrow their last known photographs, which makes finding them tough. Now AI(Artificial Intelligence) could make it quicker to match any found children to those old photos.‎ Police can use software to age photos of people who have been missing for a while, but these tend to work best in adults, as age-related changes to adult faces are more predictable and so easier to make. ‎ With children, these aged images(图像) don’t tend to resemble the older child, and matching photos of found children to old images in a database of missing children is difficult. “Given a recent face image of a child, it is extremely hard for a human to recognize, visually, who the child is from a large data set of child face images,” says Debayan Deb at Michigan State University. ‎ Now Deb and his colleagues have created an algorithm(算法) to do this for them. They created a face-recognition algorithm on data sets, which contains images of nearly 1000 children between 2 and 18 years old. Each was photographed at least four times over a period of six years. ‎ The AI learned to match recent photographs of children with images taken 2.5 years earlier80 percent of the time. ‎ With one year between the two photographs, the method was 90 percent accurate a recognizing faces. This dropped to 73 percent after three years. The approach beats comparing children with photos taken when they were aged 0 to 4 that have been aged by software, which stays at 50 percent recognition after six months. The new AI might help to improve accuracy of this kind of software as well.‎ Deb’s next goal is to make the age gap wider. His team also hopes to develop an app that could be used to fight child trafficking.‎ ‎32. What is suggested in Para.1?‎ A. Found children change greatly B. The old photos are hard to read.‎ C. Children’s faces are unpredictable.‎ D. Photos of children are easy to match.‎ ‎33. Why do Ded’s team do the research?‎ A. To prove the advantages of AI function B. To help the police change their software C. To build a data base to find the missing children.‎ D. To improve the accuracy of children’s face-recognition.‎ ‎34. What does the underlined word “trafficking” in the last paragraph mean?‎ A. Image matching B. Illegal trade.‎ C. Recognizing. D. Comparing ‎ ‎35. What is the main idea of the text?‎ A. Al could match missing kids to old photos. ‎ B. Age-related changes to faces are predictable.‎ C. A face-recognition algorithm has been created.‎ D. A new software is improved to find missing kids.‎ 第二节(共5小题;每小题2分，满分10分)‎ 根据短文内容，从短文后的选次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。‎ Shoulder pain is common.The shoulder has the most range of movement of any part in the body. 36._　　　 Furthermore,shoulder pain sometimes comes from other areas of the body.Here are some tips to help reduce shoulder pain. ‎ ‎37.　 　　 Often,the root cause of shoulder pain is simply your overdoing something.If your problem is work-related,change to a different activity.If the shoulder pain is exercise-related,then you may be working out too aggressively or with bad form—turn to a personal trainer for help. ‎ Ice your shoulder.The application of ice is useful for almost all acute injuries.__38____.　 　　 Apply ice for 10—15 minutes every hour,then reduce the frequency as the pain and swelling become less strong. ‎ Do some light shoulder stretches(拉伸).While standing or sitting, reach around the front of your body and seize the opposite elbow(肘). 39.　 　　 Reach behind your back towards your shoulder and hold it with your other hand.Slowly pull on the hand with the painful shoulder until you feel a stretch. ‎ See your doctor.If your shoulder pain is especially severe,and long-lasting,what else can you do? 40.　 　　 Your doctor will discuss a treatment plan according to your pain. ‎ A.Seek medical help.‎ B.Rest your shoulder.‎ C.Build shoulder strength.‎ D.Consider surgery if necessary.‎ E.That’s why it’s so likely to suffer from injury.‎ F.The cold treatment works well when applied to the most painful shoulder.‎ G.Gently pull on the back of the elbow until you feel a stretch in the shoulder.‎ 第三部分 语言知识运用(共两节，满分45 分)‎ 第一节 完形填空(共20小题;每小题1. 5分，满分30分)‎ 阅读下面的短文，从短文后各题所给的A、B、C和D 四个选项中, 选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。‎ I was once in an unusual sociology(社会学) class at Brandeis.Each week we studied the __41__ we interacted with one another, and how we __42___ to anger, envy, attention.
