It is usually in February, the hottest month in Rio de Janeiro. This wild celebration officially starts on Friday and finishes on the following Tuesday. It could be interpreted an act of farewell(告别) to the pleasures of the flesh. ‎ Nevada’s Burning Man Burning Man has become somewhat controversial since it began in 1986. But one thing about Burning Man that’s not controversial is its popularity—this is not always to the delight of organizers. In fact, in 2011, they attempted to cap attendance at 50,000. Nearly 50% more people than that came in 2016 and the number is likely to keep growing in the future. It is a week-long annual event which takes place at the beginning of September. ‎ India’s Holi Festival ‎ Even if you’re not a fitness-minded person, you’ve probably heard of The Color Run, a race ‎ that is different from others primarily because of the colored powder runners cover themselves in. Over several days each March, Hindu Indians celebrate the arrival of spring and the departure of winter by throwing brightly-colored powder into the air and down onto themselves.‎ Ethiopia’s Meskal Festival Although some of the festivals have religious origins, few of them prove themselves in obviously religious ways. Ethiopia’s Meskal Festival is unique in this respect, as you’ll see if you attend on 27th and 28th September, and celebrates the discovery of the so-called “True Cross”.‎ ‎21. What do we know about the Rio Carnaval?‎ A. It is not the biggest in the world.‎ B. It is usually celebrated globally.‎ C. It is a five-day celebration in Rio.‎ D. It suggests the beginning of the pleasures. ‎ ‎22. What worries the organizers of Burning Man in Nevada? ‎ A. The activities held to delight people. ‎ B. The money needed to observe the festival.‎ C. The debates about the meaning of the festival.‎ D. The population taking part in the celebration.‎ ‎23. Which festival marks the end of winter?‎ A. The Rio Carnaval. B. Burning Man. ‎ C. Holi. D. Meskal.‎ ‎24. What is special about Meskal among the festivals mentioned above?‎ A. It is a world-wide festival.‎ B. It is controversial since it began.‎ C. Its symbol is the colored powder.‎ D. It is full of religious atmosphere.‎ B As an adult, I like nothing better than to sit on the beach reading. Give me a satisfying “beach read” and I’m happy for days. However, I’m sad to say it isn’t really a thing for kids. Most kids would rather take their boards out beyond their parents’ comfort zone than read. And who can blame them? ‎ But the truth is that even when kids are on vacation, they need the same sort of relax, and reading time that we adults look forward to. The trick is getting them to sit for 5 or 10 minutes to refresh their bodies and to enjoy the pleasure of reading.‎ Books tend to be kind of heavy and they can get wet or filled with sand and are then pretty much ruined. Book chapters tend to be kind of long. Your child may refuse to read. And if your kids are anything like my daughter, they may hate to close a book in the middle of the chapter. ‎ You know what I’m going to say, right? Magazines won’t weigh you down. They can be thrown away if they get wet, and will provide just the right amount of reading for the times when my daughter is ready to sit under the umbrella and cool down for a few minutes. Literary magazines will allow your child to read wonderful fiction paired with beautiful illustrations. Discovery magazines deliver articles on all sorts of topics that will excite and interest your nonfiction lover.‎ So don’t leave the beach read behind when you pack the beach bags. Slip a magazine or two in the pocket of the bag and when your child needs a few minutes of downtime, pull it out and get ‎ them to sit for 10 minutes or so. ‎ ‎25. Who is the text most likely intended for?‎ ‎ A. Parents. B. Kids. C. Travelers. D. Teachers.‎ ‎26. What does the author really want to say in Paragraph 3? ‎ ‎ A. Books become a burden for kids on holiday.‎ ‎ B. Books are not the best choice for “beach read”.‎ ‎ C. Kids don’t spend time reading books on holiday.‎ ‎ D. It’s a pity to throw away the books ruined on holiday.‎ ‎27. What can we infer about the author’s daughter from the text?‎ ‎ A. She reads thick books during her holiday.‎ ‎ B. She prefers to read some literary magazines.‎ ‎ C. She takes some magazines with her on holiday.‎ ‎ D. She doesn’t want her magazines to weigh her down.‎ ‎28. What may be the best title for the text?‎ ‎ A. Enjoying Magazines on the Beach ‎ B. Making “Beach Read” a Thing for Kids ‎ C. Making Good Use of Kids’ Time on the Beach ‎ D. Packing Your Beach Bags with Literary Magazines C Abner Browns barbershop, on Rathgar Road, Dublin, is considered one of the most interesting places to visit in Ireland. The old-school barbershop style plays a role in its crazy popularity, but what really sets it apart from any other barbershop in the world is the fact that it doubles as a live music bar.‎ Abner Browns has been in business for 20 years, but its incredible transformation occurred six years ago, when the owner Dave Judge decided to work in the barbershop full-time, after losing a lot of money he had put in property during the financial crash of 2007-2008. While redecorating the place, he bought an old leather couch for about €30, and set it next to some guitars that served as decorations. A few days later, Canadian singer Blair Packhem walked in for a haircut and Judge asked him to play a few songs on his new couch. Customers loved the idea, and as news spread around the city, a member of local bands asked if they could play there. And it just snowballed from there.‎ In just three years, Abner Browns went from a simple Dublin barbershop to the hottest live music site in the city, and it was all by accident. Dave Judge says even though hundreds of international bands have performed at his small shop, he has never had to ask any of them to do it. They all contacted him about it, and he now gets about five emails a day from musicians wanting to play at Abner.‎ Even the Dublin Town Council has acknowledged his influence in the local music scene. A couple of years ago they asked him if he was interested in putting on a small free musical event, which eventually turned into the Canalaphonic Music Festival, the largest free music festival in Dublin.‎ ‎29. What is the main reason for Abner Browns barbershop’s popularity?‎ A. Its owner’s special identity. ‎ B. Its owner’s hair cut skill. ‎ C. Its function as a music bar. ‎ D. Its old-school architectural style.‎ ‎30. What can we infer about Dave Judge in the text?‎ A. He became famous all by chance. ‎ B. He was highly thought of for his talent in music. ‎ C. He invited many famous stars to his barber shop.‎ D. He’s worked full time in his barbershop for 20 years.‎ ‎31. What can we learn from the text?‎ A. Dave hears from music fans every day.‎ B. Blair Packhem once had his hair cut at Abner. ‎ C. Dave’s shop suffered losses in the financial crash. ‎ D. The Canalaphonic Music Festival is the largest in Ireland.‎ D Distance runners often worry about “hitting the wall” during training or races ― that terrible moment when negative thoughts become so overpowering that they make it difficult to continue. ‎ Hitting the wall typically happens around 20 miles in a marathon, when the body’s supplies become exhausted. At this point, many runners feel exhausted and discouraged, slow their pace, have trouble focusing and want to quit or walk.‎ ‎“Generalized tiredness, unintentionally slowing their pace, the desire to walk, and shifting focus to just surviving the marathon appear to be particularly common characteristics of it,” said Dr. Alistair McCormick, an exercise psychologist in England who co-authored a new study. “A marathon becomes a real mental battle when runners ‘hit the wall.’”‎ Psychological blocks are an extremely common experience for recreational endurance(耐力) athletes, according to the study. To learn how they affect people, sports psychologists asked 30 recreational runners and cyclers about the psychological demands of training, preparing for and participating in competitions.‎ ‎“Recreational runners and cyclists found it stressful trying to find the time to train,” McCormick said. “What was also interesting was the number of potential banana skins they met with before and during competition ―disasters that could cause the athletes to lose their focus and their motivation to keep persevering.”‎ These roadblocks included difficult environmental conditions and equipment failure, problems with nutrition or making a mistake, the study reported. The athletes in the study said they felt these obstacles affected their motivation and concentration, negatively affecting their overall performance. ‎ According to the study, 43 percent of marathoners are likely to hit the wall during a race. Finding ways to move past those kinds of experiences, then, could have major benefits for an athlete’s performance and well-being. ‎ ‎32. What will probably happen to athletes when “hitting the wall” occurs?‎ A. Their heads will hurt badly. ‎ B. They will fail to concentrate. ‎ C. They will slow down on purpose. ‎ D. They will have difficulty breathing.‎ ‎33. What does the underlined phrase “banana skins” refer to in Paragraph 5?‎ A. Troubles. B. Rubbish.‎ C. Competitors. D. Pressure.‎ ‎34. How did sports psychologists learn about psychological blocks?‎ A. By carrying out many experiments.‎ B. By experiencing “hitting the wall” in person.‎ C. By observing the performance of the athletes.‎ D. By listening to athletes’ experiences and ideas.‎ ‎35. What will probably be talked about in the following paragraph?‎ A. Ways to move past other players in the running.‎ B. Major benefits of athletes’ good performance.‎ C. The bad effects of psychological blocks on athletes.‎ D. Techniques to get over mental psychological blocks.‎ 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。‎ Have you ever heard of a Cucamelon? If not, you’re missing out on the cutest fruit on earth!‎ Cucamelons look like baby watermelons and taste like cucumbers mixed with lemon. 36 You can grow them in a pot, plastic bag or directly into a garden. These plants are fast growers and have a maturity of 80 days, which means you can grow them when it starts to get colder, too. 37 You’d have to look online and purchase them. Generally speaking, you can receive them within 7 days.‎ If you choose to plant them directly into your garden, you can plant them as soon as the chance of frost is gone. 38 You can put wood sticks into the ground for the roots to grow on, or use bamboo sticks as an alternative. After your first season of growing Cucamelons, you’ll notice that the root is very long. You can dig up these roots and store them in a cool, dry place and re-pot them at the start of the next growing season. 39 It will be a big harvest! By the way, you can use Cucamelons in food dishes or in drinks. The thought sounds pretty excellent!‎ ‎ 40 Your neighbors might even feel inspired to grow Cucamelons themselves!‎ A. This means you can eat fruit all the year round.‎ B. However, you won’t find these seeds in a store.‎ C. They’ll need a lot of water and a little support with growing.‎ D. They’re from Mexico and are known as “Sandíitas de Raton”.‎ E. That’s because the young plants can’t stand the cold weather.‎ F. If you’re looking for a new, exciting fruit to try out, try Cucamelons! ‎ G. This will give you ten times as many Cucamelons the next time around!‎ 第三部分 英语知识运用（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）‎ 阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和 D）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。‎ The Lesson My Scars Taught Me When I was about 18 months old, I was burned quite badly.
