With every attempt over the next four months, I was met with strong 42 and a firm “No!” After weeks of 43 at any kind of meaningful interaction with patients, I decided to change my way.

Slowly, over the weeks, I learned more about what experiences had 47 her life by communicating with her. She was 48 me into her world, and with time she would give me her arm to take blood.

B There may be a good reason that you put on pounds every winter. You’ve always blamed it on the holidays — all that great food at Thanksgiving, Christmas and New Year. But if you find yourself packing on 5, 10, or even 20 pounds every winter, you may be suffering from more than just a sweet tooth. Seasonal Affective Disorder (SAD) often leads to significant weight gain in the colder, darker months. “People with SAD desire sugary, starchy (含淀粉的) foods because they increase serotonin (a brain chemical that controls your emotion) levels,” says Dr.Norman Rosenthal, a leading seasonal of depression expert. “From most people, the consequence of eating a lot of these foods is weight gain. But for people with SAD, in addition to weight gain, there is also a roller coaster ( 过 山 车 般 的 ) mood ride between highs and lows.” Plus, according to recent slower metabolism (新陈代谢) than others. “Because SAD arrives predictably at the same time every year, you have the opportunity to plan ahead,” writes Dr. Rosenthal. For more than 30 years, he has studied SAD and its treatments. He also suffers from the disorder himself: “As the sunlight went away, so did my energy and emotion. I soldiered on through the winter. Cookies and candy became a source of comfort. But when spring came, everything just seemed to get better.” One of the most difficult aspects of the disorder is that the sadness isn’t constant, says Dr. Rosenthal. So, it’s easy to deny the problem. But it’s time to bring SAD into the light. “I started using a light box, and to this day never travel without one. I began to exercise regularly. I changed my diet to pay more attention to protection, vegetables, and low-impact foods,” he writes. “Although I accept that winter may not feel as good as summer, I have found a sense of well-being again.” Planning a healthier lifestyle is never a bad idea. But don’t beat yourself up if your symptoms don’t improve right away. Asking for help is a sign of strength and movement towards a better version of yourself. Consider how you can start managing SAD today and live a healthier word “it” in every season. 58. What does the underlined word “it” in Paragraph 1 refer to ? A. SAD B. Weight control C. The extra weight D. The great food 59. Why do SAD sufferers like sugary, starchy foods a lot ? A. The foods make them happy. B. They are particular about food. C. They have a slower metabolism. D. The foods increase their blood sugar level. 60. What does Dr. Rosenthal say about people with SAD ? A. Roller coaster rides can benefit them. B. Sunlight can lift their spirits. C. They are energetic in winter. D. They exercise regularly. C ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE is one of the hottest, least understood and most debated technological breakthroughs in modern times. In many ways, the magic of AI is that it’s not something you can see or touch. You may not even realize you are using it today. When your Nest thermostat ( 恒 温 器 ) knows how to set the right temperature at home or when your phone automatically corrects your grammar or when a Tesla car navigates (导航) a road autonomously — that’s AI at work. For most of our lives, people have had to adapt to technology. To find a file on a computer, we input a command on a keyboard attached to one particular machine. To make a phone call, we tap sorts of numbers on a keypad. To get a piece if information, we type a specific set of keywords into a search engine. AI is tuning that dynamic on its head by creating technologies that adapt to us rather than the other way around — new ways of interesting with computers that won’t seem like computing at all. Computer scientists have been working on AI technologies for decades, and we’re now seeing that work bear fruit. Recent breakthroughs, based on computers’ ability to understand speech and language, and have vision, have given rise to our technology “alter ego” — a personal guide that knows your habits and communication preferences, and helps you schedule your time, motivate your team to do their best work, or be, say, a better parent. Core to the work I do on conversational AI is how we model language — not only inspired by technical advances, but also by insight from our best and brightest thinkers on the way people use words. To do so, we revisit ideas in books (that give us closer looks at the complexity of human language), such as Steven Pinker’s The Stuff of Thought, which combines logical rules with the unpredictability of human passion. Humanity’s most important moments are often those risky interactions where emotion comes into play — like a business where negotiation — and people use vague, ambiguous language needs to take social risks. AI that understands language needs to combine the logical and unpredictable ways people interact. This likely means AI needs to recognize when people are more effective on their own — when to get out of the way, when not to help, when not to record, when not to interrupt or distract. The advances that AI is bringing to our world have been a half-century in the making. But AI’s time is now. Because of the vast amounts of data in our world, only the almost limitless computing power of the cloud can make sense of it. AI can truly help solve some of the world’s most annoying problems, from improving day-to-day communication to energy, climate, health care, transportation and more. The real magic of AI, in the end, won’t be magic at all. It will be technology that adapts to people. This will be profoundly transformational for humans and for humanity. 61. From Paragraph 3, we can learn that__________. A. people are using AI unconsciously at present B. computers rob people’s creativity in some way C. AI will make changes to satisfy the needs of people D. people have to alter behavior to keep up with modern times 62. Paragraph 4 mainly talks about __________. A. why the world will be transformed by AI B. how science fiction contributes to the stud of AI C. how technology promotes people’s communication D. what the focus of conversational AI is 63. What’s the difficulty of developing conversational AI? A. There is a diversity of language and dialects in the world. B. It has to figure out the hidden meaning of people’s interactions. C. It has to learn a large number of complex logical rules. D. A large amount of data needs of complex logical rules. 64. The author thinks the future of AI will be ___________. A. promoting B. annoying C. worrying D. risk D To make or to buy is perhaps the most basic question in business. This week a new report from Strategy&, an oddly named consulting division of PWC, an accounting firm, argues that a growing number answer “buy” when it comes to appointing bosses. Strategy &, formerly Booz Co, has been studying CEO succession (继位)in the world's 2,500 biggest public companies for the past 17 years. It found that between 2012 and 2015 boards chose outsiders in 22% of planned successions, up from just 14% between 2004 and 2007. Looking at the numbers in a different way, in cases where outsiders were parachuted in, 74% of them joined as part of a succession that was planned in the 2012-15 period (up from 43%. in 2004-07). Traditionally boards have turned to outsiders in the last resort when they have to boot out incumbent(现任 的) CEOS or when the pipeline of internal candidates runs dry. The new statistics suggest that firms increasingly go for outsiders as part of regular succession planning. Good reasons exist for this. Boards want leaders who can deal with powerful disruptive forces, such as new technologies and radical business models. Industries that have seen a lot of disruption from technological innovation or regulatory(监管的) change are particularly keen on outsiders. In the 2012-15 period, outsiders made up 38% of incoming CEOS in telecoms, 32% in utilities(公共事业单位)29% in health care,28% in energy and 26% in financial services. How far outside firms will go varies: in financial services almost all outsiders (92%) came from other financial firms: in utilities 72% of outsiders came from other industries. Boards are more independent than they used to be, thanks largely to regulatory changes introduced. They are more likely to consist of genuine outsiders free from ties to the CEO and equipped with a wide range of contacts and perspectives. That makes it harder for bosses to appoint heirs apparent(法定继承人). Spencer Stuart , a headhunter ,calculates that last year 84% of all board directors of S&P 500 firms were independent and 29% of boards had a truly dependent chair. Strategy& says that only 7% of last year's incoming CEOS were also named chairman of the board. Board independence is reinforced by the rise of activist investors. Institutional investors expect as a matter of course that boards will hold managers to account and fire bosses who badly underperform. Shark Watch, a corporate activism database, says almost half the companies at which an activist investor gains a board seat replace their boss within 18 months. A fashion for outsiders is at first glance worrying. It probably helps push up bosses salaries (see Schumpeter). Insiders have traditionally fared better: in 2005 retiring insiders had a median tenure of 5.8 years, against 4.8 years for outsiders. And some outsiders have proved to be embarrassing. Yahoo hired Scott Thompson from Paypal only to fire him a few months later when it learned he had falsified his academic credentials. J.C. Penney recruited Ron Johnson from Apple but dumped him after its share price fell by half. But outsiders had a poor record in part because companies used only to turn to them in extremis. Now they choose them in good times; last year companies with good performance(as measured by total shareholder returns) hired a larger share of outsiders than did poorly performing companies, and retiring outsiders had a longer tenure than insiders. By insisting on considering outsiders as well as insiders, boards give themselves more options. The more important change is not that they sometimes decide to buy from outside, but that they are getting better at doing their most basic job planning CEO succession. About time, too. 65.The underlined phrase "boot out?"in Paragraph 2 is closest in meaning to “____________”. A. lay off B. deal with C. cater for D compromise with 66.According to the passage, genuine outsiders having a seat on the board of a company can___________. A have a chance to be heirs apparent B. make wise business decisions C help prevent regulatory changes D. make the company operate fairly 67.The examples of Scott Thompson and Ron Johnson are mentioned to show_________. A. not all outsiders are successful B. academic certificates aren’t persuasive enough C. not all big companies can acquire a good reputation D. insiders can usually enjoy more privileges than outsiders 68. Outside CEOS performed better in the past partly because__________. A. there was a lack of managerial talent B. they felt a stronger sense of responsibility C. companies were small and easy to operate D. they were appointed leaders at a hard time 69.What’s the author’ s attitude towards companies appointing outsiders as their CEOS? A. Worried B. Cautious C. Supportive D. Doubtful 70. This passage mainly explains___________. A. how companies attract more talented personnel B. why companies are appointing more outsiders as CEOS C. why companies become more dependent on independent board D. how companies handle the conflicts between their insiders and outsiders 第四部分: 任务型阅读 (共10小题; 每小题1分, 满分10分) 请认真阅读下面短文,并根据所读内容在文章后表格中的空格里填入一个最恰 当的单词。 The biggest disappointments in our lives are often the result of misplaced expectations. This is especially true when it comes to our relationships and interactions with others. Adjusting your expectations of other people will greatly reduce unnecessary frustration and suffering, in both your life and theirs, and help you refocus on the things that truly matter. You deserve to be happy. You deserve to live a life you are excited about. Don’t let the opinions of others make you forget that. You are not in this world to live up to the expectations of others, nor should you feel that others are here to live up to yours. In fact, the more you approve of your own decisions in life, the less approval you need from everyone else. You have to dare to be yourself, and follow your own intuition(直觉), however frightening or strange that may feel or prove to be. Don’t compare yourself to others. Don’t get discouraged by their progress or success. Follow your own path and stay true to your own purpose. Success is ultimately(最 终)about spending your life happily in your own way. You might feel unwanted and unworthy to one person, but you are priceless to another. Don't ever forget your worth. Spend time with those who value you, No matter how good you are to people, there will always be negative person who criticizes you. Smile, ignore them, and carry on. In this crazy world that’s trying to make you like everyone else, the toughest battle you'll ever have to fight is the battle to be yourself. And as you're fighting back, not everyone will like you. Sometimes people will call you names because you're “different”. But that’s perfectly OK. The things that make you different are the things that make YOU, and the right people will love you for it If there's a specific behavior someone you care about has that you're hoping disappears over time, it probably won't. If you really need them to change something, be honest and put all the cards on the table so this person knows how you feel and what you need them to do. For the most part though, you can't change people and you shouldn't try. Either you accept who they are or you choose to live without them. It might sound harsh, but it's not. When you try to change people, they often remain the same ,but when you don’t try to change them--when you support them and allow them the freedom to be as they are--- they gradually change in the most beautiful way, because what really changes is the way you see them. People rarely behave exactly the way you want them to. Hope for the best, but expect less. And remember, the level of your happiness will be directly proportional (正比) to your thoughts and how you choose to think about things. Title: Three Things You Should Stop Expecting from Others Brief introduction Improper expectations often lead to disappointment and suffering, preventing you focusing on(71)________things Three improper expectations ●We tend to live up to others’ expectations, and expect others to meet(72)_________,too. ●We expect all the others to like us, but actually no one can (73)________ everything else. ●We expect the specific behaviors of our loved to go away gradually, but probably in(74)_________. (75)________to avoid improper expectations ●Be yourself and(76)________to your own purpose instead of comparing yourself to others. ●(77)________those who criticize you and fight a battle to be yourself(78)_______people sometimes think you are “different”. ●Be(79)________if you want others to change something , or just change your own attitude and learn to accept who they are. Conclusion Stop expecting too much from others and(80)_______ your happiness on your own thoughts and the way you think about things. 第五部分: 书面表达 (满分25分) 请根据你对所给图片的理解,以“Where you stand decides your view” 为题,用 英语写一篇作文。 你的作文应包括以下内容: 1.简要描述图片内容; 2.揭示图片的主题; 3.谈谈图片带给你的启示。 注意:可参照图片适当发挥;字数150左右 参考答案 听力:1-5BCACA 6-10BCACC 11-15ABCBC 16-20ABBAC 单选:21-25BDCDC 26-30DBCBC 31-35ADBAC 完型:36-40BCCDB 41-45CDBAA 46-50BDACB 51-55CDCDB 阅读理解:A 篇 CD B 篇 CAB C 篇 CDBA D 篇 ADADCB 任务型阅读; 71.important/significant 72.ours 73.satisfy/please 74.vain 75.How /Ways/Methods 76.stick/keep 7.Ignore 78.though/although79.honest/frank/straightforward 80.base 书面表达: In the picture, two people are making conversation. One says he can see a beautiful sight while the other explains he can’t see anything. Obviously, the former can enjoy the scenery because he is standing somewhere high above the sea level; the latter can' t because a mountain. in front of him just blocks his sight. The picture conveys the message that where you stand decides your view. It's very common that different people always hold different opinions about the same thing just because they look at the thing from different angles. I’ve learned two lessons from the picture. Firstly, when we disagree with others, we should put ourselves in their shoes so that we can imagine what it would feel like to be in their situation. Secondly, we should keep studying and broadening our mind so that we can always enjoy a better view either in our physical or mental world.
