The 26-year-old only told VOA his first name because he is an undocumented immigrant. This means he does not have the official documents needed to enter, live in, or work in the U.S. legally.‎ Emmanuel came to the U.S. from Mexico five years ago. But when he arrived, he discovered that his dream was much more difficult to achieve than he had thought. But then Emmanuel ‎ read about University of the People. University of the People is a university that has no tuition costs. The university’s classes and teaching materials are all free online. Also, all of the teachers are volunteers.‎ Federal laws in the U.S. do not prevent undocumented immigrants from going to college. But laws do ban undocumented immigrants from receiving government financial aid. The Pew Research Center is an organization that studies social issues around the world. The organization recently reported there were 11.3 million illegal immigrants living in the U.S. in 2014.Of those, 49 percent were from Mexico.‎ Many undocumented immigrants like Emmanuel come to the U.S. with little money to pay for things like higher education. College Board is an organization that collects information and resources to make higher education more available. The organization recently reported on the average cost of a four-year degree at both public and private U.S. universities. The average cost at a public university is $9 410 for a resident of the state where the university is located. The average cost at a private university is $32 405.College Board also reported that 69 percent of financial aid came from the U.S. government in 2014.‎ Emmanuel had no other choice, so he chose to study at University of the People. Quickly, he said, he believed that the university would give him the skills for a future in computer science. Emmanuel said he missed seeing and working with other students in a classroom. But he did love working with students from many countries online.‎ ‎8.Why does the author refer to Emmanuel in the passage?‎ A. To show he is an undocumented immigrant in the U.S.‎ B. To imply the government should stop illegal immigrants.‎ C. To tell the illegal immigrants they will see a hope in their life.‎ D. To prove many poor people can’t afford universities.‎ ‎9.If you are to attend University of the People, ________.‎ A. you can choose whatever course you prefer B. you don’t have to worry about the college tuition C. you may apply for government financial aid D. you should get in touch with the volunteers at first ‎10.So many data are mentioned in the fourth paragraph to show ________.‎ A. the U.S. can provide people with quality education B. most people from Mexico can’t afford higher education C. a private university charge much more than a public university D. the foundation of University of the People is very necessary ‎11.Which of the following is the proper title for the passage?‎ A. Online University Offers Poor Students a Chance B. Free Excellent Higher Education for Mexico Students C. Almost Half Illegal Immigrants Came from Mexico D. Emmanuel Was Offered a Chance to Attend University D In the past 24 hours, I have been gifted with two amazing opportunities for kindness. The first happened yesterday. On my way home I saw a small dog running across the very busy street. He ran into the neighborhood, so I went off in search of him hoping I could reunite him with his owners. After a cat-and-mouse game, he finally decided I was worthy of at least a little of his trust and came close enough to me for me to grab him.‎ After taking him to be scanned for a microchip, I learned that he had disappeared eight months ago from his owners who lived an hour and a half away. As I had some free time, I drove him back to his rightful owners. He and his human mommy were so glad to see each other! It gave me a good smile to end the year.‎ This morning my family and I went to a friend’s home to help her get things back in order. She was one of the unfortunate people whose home was recently destroyed by the Rowlett, TX tornado. Her home was a total loss. Our job today was to help her sort through the debris and find anything with actual value that she might want to take with her.‎ My husband helped to move furniture and other things to storage while our younger children helped clean up the yard. By the time we were done today, though there was no denying that the home had met with disaster, we had gone far to restore order from the chaos that had been there before.‎ My thought in entering the day was that our friend, who had been having trouble sleeping, was being affected by that chaos more negatively. I hoped that if we could give a hand, she would finally start to feel some sense of peace and allow herself the much-needed rest she so ‎ deserved. She posted on Facebook just a little while ago that for the first time she was sleeping at night. For me, that is the greatest gift I could give her. What a wonderful and deeply meaningful way to begin the year!‎ ‎12.How did the author feel when she wrote the text?‎ A. Worried. B. Satisfied. ‎ C. Excited. D. Concerned.‎ ‎13.In the end the dog dared to come close to the author .‎ A. because the dog loved to play with a cat and a mouse B. because the dog lost his way in such a busy street C. because the dog thought the author wouldn’t harm him D. because the dog knew the author would take him home ‎14.The author and her family came to help her friend .‎ A.as soon as the Rowlett, TX tornado left B. after she knew her friend’s trouble C. when she got a call from her husband D. because she knew her friend was alone ‎15.After reading the message posted on Facebook .‎ A. the author felt as if a big burden had been lifted from her mind B. the author knew she would get a pretty good gift C. the author encouraged her family to do kindness again D. the author knew her friend got rid of sleep problems 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。‎ Children can achieve well at school when their family take an interest in their school and schoolwork. 16 Often, the more supported a child feels at home, the more effectively she or he will learn at school. Whatever your lifestyle or family situation is, it is never too late to start helping a child develop a positive attitude towards learning.‎ ‎ 17 But there are ways to find time to be involved in your child’s education. If you are a non-resident parent, it is equally important to be involved in your child’s learning too. This ‎ can inspire them to try their best where they can.‎ Try to give encouragement and show appreciation of your child’s achievements, whether great or small. Teach them basic organization and time management skills so they are not overwhelmed by projects or homework. 18 Let your child develop at their own pace, but if you do have concern, please speak to their teachers.‎ Try to give feedback rather than criticism, e.g. saying "that didn’t seem to work" rather than "you got it wrong". This helps them think about where they go wrong. 19 ‎ You might find contacting your child’s teachers difficult. 20 But finding out more about their school life shows your child how much you care about their education. And getting to the teachers is the best way of finding out more.‎ A. Time can be a factor in busy families.‎ B. Some parents often make much complaint.‎ C. School is the best place to educate your children.‎ D. Sometimes you think they will not have time for you.‎ E. Be realistic and avoid putting your child under pressure.‎ F. The most important is that they think how to improve in future.‎ G. Getting involved in your child’s education shows you care about their school life.zx.x.k 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)‎ The incident happened about 10 years back, and was an eye-opener for me. 21 I had a difficult childhood, I managed to keep up with my studies and just started my first job but was not 22 with it.

Welcome to China. As for the two tourist attractions you asked me to recommend, here are the details.‎ You know, the Great Wall is one of the seven wonders in the world.
