These following snacks are not only local to their city or country, but also show the delicious range of structure and flavour.‎ Xiaolongbao-Shanghai, China Shanghai’s Xiaolongbao is filled with pork and aspic, which makes it special. Aspic is a meat combination that melts into soup when heated. As a result, the tiny buns are tasty and salty. They are found throughout the city, so people enjoy standing up at street stalls and restaurant-fronts by Shanghai's business set.‎ Pho-Hanoi, Vietnam Pho is noodle soup. Ingredients in the soup are simple: noodles, meat (chicken or beef), and garnishes (green onion, thai basil, lime and chilis). But what really sets pho apart is its soup, made by simmering bones with onion and ginger, spices and seasonings, ideally for hours on end to get the flavour just right.‎ Penang AsamLaksa-Penang, Malaysia Penang AsamLaksa is spicy noodle soup made with thick rice noodles. The dish is made ‎ more notable with the addition of lemongrass, spicy(辛辣的) chilis, sweet pineapple, cilantro, onions and fresh mint garnishes. Penangites have loved their asam laksas for some time and with their loving additions to their favorite recipe.‎ Som Tam-Bangkok, Thailand This fruit salad is a mix of papaya, a local fruit, and the following ingredients: sugar, chilis, fish sauce, garlic, tomato, among others. This dish is not sweet like you might expect, but sour, salty or spicy in equal measure. Local variations add in everything from peanuts to crab, but in Bangkok you'll find the spiciest versions, which can be as challenging to eat as they are delicious.‎ 21. What can you find Xiaolongbao special about?‎ A. You can find it filled with pork.‎ B. You can enjoy meat soup when it is heated.‎ C. You can enjoy it throughout the whole city.‎ D. You can find it filled with salty and delicious meat.‎ ‎22. Which two snacks contain noodles?‎ A. Xiaolongbao and Pho.‎ B. Xiaolongbao and Som Tam.‎ C. Pho and Penang AsamLaksa.‎ D. Penang AsamLaksa and Som Tam.‎ ‎23. What is the main characteristic of Som Tam in Bangkok?‎ A. Hot. B. Salty.‎ C. Sweet. D. Sour.‎ B Two summers ago, Spencer Seabrooke stepped off the edge of a cliff and out into the air. He was held up by a narrow band of fabric, three centimetres wide. The slackline (扁带) went over a deep channel on the top of Stawamus Chief Mountain in Squamish, Canada. The plan was to walk across without safety equipment. The ground was 290 metres below Seabrook’s feet. A fall meant death. The walking distance of 64 metres would mark a world record in free solo slacklining.‎ ‎“You’re standing on nothing,” Seabrooke said at the time. “Everything inside your body is telling you this is wrong.” Several steps into the crossing, Seabrooke looked down. He lowered his body to steady himself and reached with his hands to hold the slackline. He suddenly turned over ‎ but hung on. He righted himself, let out a few screams, and stood again. He had walked the same slackline-with assistance-many times before. Finally, he crossed in four minutes and made it.‎ Slacklining became known in the early 1980s, around the rock climbing scene at Yosemite National Park in California. Scott Balcom, in 1985, was the first to walk on a 17-metre highline on Lost Arrow Spire, the valley bottom some 880 metres below. Charles “Chongo” Tucker, who has been living in Yosemite for a long time, was there in slacklining’s earliest days. Later, in 1994, he was one of the next people to walk the Lost Arrow Spire highline. “As scared as I was, it was as cool as anything I’ve ever done in my life,” said Tucker.‎ Seabrooke grew up in Peterborough, Canada, in love with the outdoors. He saw a documentary in 2012 that was about Andy Lewis, a slackliner and free solo pioneer who performed at the Super Bowl. Seabrooke was attracted and devoted himself to the sport. Three years later, he walked his record free solo highline on the Stawamus Chief.‎ The attention Seabrooke won led to work, everything from commercials to paid appearances at slackline festivals from Poland to China. “When you step out into the air, there’s something so clean about it,” said Seabrooke. “Height makes it real.”‎ 24. What do we know about Seabrooke’s slacklining experience two years ago?‎ A. It was record-breaking.‎ B. It was done in Yosemite.‎ C. It involved materials for security.‎ D. It presented no challenge to him.‎ 25. What did Seabrooke’s words in Paragraph 2 imply?‎ A. He was very confident.‎ B. He made a wrong decision.‎ C. Slacklining was a dangerous sport.‎ D. Slacklining was done without any support.‎ 26. What was Tucker’s attitude to slacklining?‎ A. Negative. B. Ambiguous.‎ C. Frustrated. D. Favorable.‎ 27. What encouraged Seabrooke to start slacklining?‎ A. The Super Bowl.‎ B. A slackline festival.‎ C. Its commercial promise.‎ D. A slackliner’s performance.‎ C Austin residents and businesses are making efforts to put their leftovers to good use. The city is among a handful of U. S. cities aiming for “zero waste”.‎ For Austin, there are plenty to go around: it annually wastes more than 190 million pounds of food, worth at least $200 million. Those numbers are big, but they're not out of line with national trends-some 40 percent of food in the nation goes to waste. Put in plain terms, that is enough to fill a 90,000-seat stadium each day.‎ For many, the answer lies in donation. Austin City Limits, one of the city’s influential festivals, gives all unwanted food to the Central Texas Food Bank. And there are volunteer-driven nonprofits that pick up donated food and deliver it to hungry people.‎ But the best practice, Austin believes, is to use less, and the city is calling on businesses and households to buy the right amount of food. Full Fridge, a new meal-delivery service, solves this problem. “Full Fridge came about because, basically, we were seeing a lot of people not knowing how to prepare food,” says co-founder Mokshika Sharma. They would buy groceries, but not know what to do with them, and end up throwing away a lot.‎ Her business hopes to end that problem by offering ready-made meals for only five dollars each. Full Fridge also minimizes waste by stopping sales two days before delivery, so the chef and shopper can plan precisely.‎ Another satisfactory solution is to compost(将......制成堆肥）it. Austin’s restaurants and grocery stores typically contract with composting companies to deal with much of their food waste, and then sell it as fertilizer. Meanwhile, Compost Pedallers, a company created by Dustin Fedako, is working on bicycle-powered compost collection.‎ ‎“We play the dot-connecter,” says Fedako,“getting the material from those of us who are making it to the people in the community who use it as a resource to grow more food,and to grow better quality food.”‎ ‎28.What do the figures in Paragraph 2 indicate?‎ A.The urgent need for donated food.‎ B.The rapid growth in food donation.‎ C.The ambitious goal of “zero waste”.‎ D.The serious problem of food waste. 29.Paragraph 3 mainly talks about Austin' s efforts to______.‎ A.feed the hungry.‎ B.make use of leftovers.‎ C.build more volunteer-driven nonprofits.‎ D.hold festivals to entertain its residents.‎ ‎30.Who are Full Fridge's target customers?‎ A.Those with too little food.‎ B.Those with poor cooking skills.‎ C.Those with unhealthy eating habits.‎ D.Those with little time to buy groceries.‎ ‎31.What does Fedako mean by saying “We play the dot-connecter”?‎ A.They find it rather easy to collect food waste.‎ B.They hope people will buy better quality food.‎ C.They link food waste producers to fertilizer users.‎ D.They are trying to connect with composting companies.‎ D Ever walked to the shops only to find, once there, you’ve completely forgotten what you went for? Or struggled to remember the name of an old friend? For years we’ve accepted that a forgetful brain is as much a part of aging as wrinkles and gray hair. But now a new book suggests that we’ve got it all wrong.‎ According to The Secret Life of the Grown-up Brain, by science writer Barbara Strauch, when it comes to the important things, our brains actually get better with age. In fact, she argues that some studies have found that our brain hits its peak between our 40s and 60s — much later than previously thought.‎ Furthermore, rather than losing many brain cells as we age, we keep them, and even produce new ones well into middle age. For years it’s been assumed that brain, much like the body, declines with age. But the longest, largest study into what happens to people as they age suggests ‎ otherwise.‎ This continuing research has followed 6,000 people since 1956, testing them every seven years. It has found that on average, participants performed better on cognitive (认知的) tests in their 40s and 50s than they had done in their 20s. Specifically, older people did better on tests of vocabulary, verbal memory (how many words you can remember) and problem solving. Where they performed less well was number ability and perceptual speed — how fast you can push a button when ordered. However, with more complex tasks such as problem-solving and language, we are at our best at middle age and beyond. In short, researchers are now coming up with scientific proof that we do get wiser with age.‎ Neuroscientists are also finding that we are happier with aging. A recent US study found older people were much better at controlling and balancing their emotions. It is thought that when we’re younger we need to focus more on the negative aspects of life in order to learn about the possible dangers in the world, but as we get older we’ve learned our lessons and are aware that we have less time left in life. Therefore, it becomes more important for us to be happy.‎ ‎32. Barbara Strauch probably agrees that ______.‎ A. the young are better at handling important things B. aging leads to the decline of the function of the brain C. people’s brains work best between their 40s and 60s D. wrinkles and gray hair are the only symbols of aging ‎33. The continuing research has found older people perform better on ______.‎ A. perceptual speed B. number ability C. vocabulary tests D. body balance ‎34. People are happier with aging because ______.‎ A. they learn to value the time left.‎ B. they know how to share feelings.‎ C. they cannot focus on negative aspects.‎ D. they do not realize the possible dangers.‎ ‎35. What is the main idea of the passage?‎ A. People get happier with age.‎ B. People get wiser with age.‎ C. People get more forgetful with age.‎ D. People get more self-aware with age.‎ 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。‎ Wikipedia, the online encyclopedia (百科全书), is the largest encyclopedia ever. An encyclopedia is a collection of informative articles about various things. Encyclopedias used to be printed as books. 36‎ ‎“Wiki”is an internet term that means “a website that can be edited by the public. ”It comes from“wikiwiki”，a Hawaiian word for“quick”. Two Americans, Jimmy Wales and Larry Sanger, created Wikipedia in 2001. 37 It has about 6 million articles in 300 languages and is visited by billions of people each day, who want to find information on just about anything-science, math, languages, art, cultureand company histories. There are articles on sports stars, too, and even long-forgotten soap operas from the 1970s.‎ ‎38 Except for a small number of pages, anyone can edit articles, anonymously (匿名地）or with a user account, and registered users can create their own articles. Editing is unpaid, although Wikipedia does employ a small staff. Wikipedia is freely available to anyone with an internet connection. Its founders hoped that the model would make use of humanity’s collective knowledge.‎ ‎39 Many Wikipedia pages contain errors, although the organization has a content review system that works to fix this problem. Several studies have concluded that Wikipedia is as accurate as most print encyclopedias. Indeed, a 2005 report in the journal Nature found it to be only slightly less reliable than Encyclopedia Britannica.‎ Today Wikipedia faces many challenges. It does not rely on advertising. 40 Perhaps more importantly, the number of its volunteer editors is shrinking.‎ Despite these difficulties, Jimmy Wales says he will still stick to his dream. He has big plans for the future. He wants Wikipedia available in all of the world’s languages.‎ A. Instead, all of its funds come from donations.‎ ‎ B. Wikipedia employs an open editing model. C. It allows users to get information within seconds. D. It is now the fifth-most visited website on the Internet. E. Most of its editors are volunteers. F. Now,they are mostly found online. G. However, some people doubt the accuracy of Wikipedia's content.‎ 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。‎ Reverend Karen Onesti and Rabbi Andrew Bossov, both in Mt.

So she 42 him in the parking lot and asked him how he was doing.‎ ‎“Not so well, 43 ,” Bossov replied. “I need a new kidney(肾).”‎ Bossov’s kidneys were failing, the 44 of an experimental drug he’d taken more than a decade earlier for his colitis (结肠炎). Facing dialysis(透析)，Bossov had already 45 the United Network for Organ Sharing (UNOS) registry, but 70,000 people were in front of him.

Being accepted for transplant was one thing, but being 54 for surgery was another, and there were no guarantees.” Bossov began dialysis. However, Onesti 55 discovered she needed major surgery of her own, an hysterectomy (子宫切除术), before she could be able to 56 an organ.‎ But 57 , both Bossov and Onesti were cleared, and their surgeries were a(n) 58 .

In fact, she argues that some studies have found that our brain hits its peak between our 40s and 60s. 句意：当提到重要的事情时, ‎ 随着年龄的增长我们的大脑会变得更好。实际上, 她主张很多研究已经发现我们大脑的智力水平在40 到60 岁时达到顶峰。 33. 【答案】C ‎ ‎【解析】 根据题干的The continuing research定位到文章第四段第一行。从第二句It has found开始介绍这个research的结论, 第三句Specifically, order people did better on tests of vocabulary为答案，可见，老人在词汇测试上做的更好。‎ ‎34. 【答案】A ‎【解析】根据题干 happier 定位到文中最后一个单词。向前找关键信息会看到一个but, 文中说到but as we get older we’ve learned our lessons and are sub-consciously aware that we have less time left in life: therefore, it becomes more important for us to be happy. 可见，随着年龄的增长，“我们”知道“我们”所剩的时间在一点点减少， 因此快乐对“我们”变得更加重要, 故选A。‎ ‎35.【答案】B ‎ ‎【解析】根据文章第一段末的转折But now a new book suggests that we’ve got it all wrong. 对应转折前说的“随着年龄的增长人会变得健忘”, 可知，文章主要讲随着年龄的增长，人类会变得越来越聪明，故选B。A项是最大的干扰项，文末说的是快乐对年长的人很重要，是因为随着年龄的增长，他们知道所剩的时间在一点点减少，所以才觉得快乐才是最重要的。这也是他们随着年龄增长变得更加智慧的表现。“快乐”不是文章的主线，“智慧”才是文章的主要线索。‎ 第二节 ‎（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）‎ 本文是一篇说明文，介绍了维基百科的相关内容。‎ ‎36. 【答案】F ‎【解析】本题考查考生合理使用词汇衔接手段，实现语义连贯的能力。36题位置在段末。根据前一句：百科全书以前是以书籍的形式印刷的，现在则主要以网络形式存在。前后时间上形成对比。此外F中的代词they指代前一句中的Encyclopedias。‎ ‎37. 【答案】D ‎【解析】本题考查考生理解段内衔接关系的能力。37题位于段落之中。第二段围绕维基百科的基本信息展开，内容包括：维基百科名字的由来、创始人、以及所收藏的信息。37题也要继续围绕维基百科介绍，因此选D，它现在是人们在线访问第五多的网站。此外，37题后面句子里的主语it,与D 选项中的it指代一致。‎ ‎38. 【答案】B ‎【解析】本题考查考生理解篇章布局能力。38题是段首语，根据下句话得知，除了少数网页外，任何人都可以以匿名的形式或使用用户名对文章进行自由编辑，因此本段介绍的是维基百科的编辑模式，故选B，维基百科采用的是开放的编辑模式。‎ ‎39. 【答案】G ‎【解析】本题考查考生理解篇章结构，建立段内和段际关系的能力。39题的位置在段首，引出一个新的话题。39题所在的段落介绍了维基百科内容上含有错误信息，与G选项符合。此外，第四段是文章的分水岭，前面介绍维基百科的优势，后面介绍它的问题，如包含错误信息，资金困难，自愿编辑人员紧缩等。因此39题的however是一个重要的衔接标志词，表明后面的内容与前面的信息相反。‎ ‎40. 【答案】A ‎【解析】本题考查考生理解段内衔接关系的能力。该题位于段落之中。本段介绍维基百科目前遇到的困难，40题前一句提到，它不以广告盈利，因此选A，它的资金都来源于捐赠。此外，instead作为一个重要的衔接标志词，使得该句与前句形成对比。‎ 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）‎ 本文是记叙文。文章讲述了Onesti主动给Bossov捐肾、最终手术成功的感人故事。‎ ‎41. 【答案】C ‎【解析】根据下文中的something was up with Bossov可知，Onesti能 “看出, 判断（tell)” Bossov遇到了问题。‎ ‎42.【答案】D ‎【解析】根据下文中的asked him how he was doing可知，Onesti在停车场 (“走近approached)” Bossov, 问他近况如何。‎ ‎43.【答案】B ‎【解析】根据上文中的Not so well和下文中的I need a new kidney可知，Bossov回答说自己不太好，“不幸的是（unfortunately)”，他需要一个新的肾。‎ ‎44.【答案】C ‎【解析】根据 kidneys were failing 和 an experimental drug he'd taken 可知，Bossov的肾脏正在衰竭，这是他十多年前因结肠炎而服用一种实验性药物造成的 “结果（result）”。‎ ‎45.【答案】B ‎【解析】根据上文中的Facing dialysis和下文中的but 70,000 people were in front of him 可知，面对透析，Bossov已经 “加入（joined)”了器官共享联合网络登记处，但他的前面己有七万人在排队。‎ ‎46.【答案】B ‎【解析】 根据 find a live donor 和he hadn't found可知，Bossov还“联系 （connecting with)” 了一些好友和近亲来寻找活体捐赠者。‎ ‎47.【答案】A ‎【解析】但是到目前为止，他还没有找到一个可以 “匹配的人或物（match)” 。‎ ‎48. 【答案】D ‎【解析】根据20 people die every day可知，这些统计数字对于Bossov这种情况的人来说是“可怕的（awful)”。‎ ‎49. 【答案】B ‎【解析】在美国，每天有20人在等待 “器官（organ)” 捐赠中死去。‎ ‎50. 【答案】A ‎【解析】根据下文中的I'll give you one of mine可知，Onesti毫不 “犹豫（hesitate)”地告诉Bossov, 她捐一个肾给他。‎ ‎51. 【答案】D ‎【解析】根据Writing in a journal可知，Bossov在杂志上“报道（reported)”‎ ‎52. 【答案】B ‎【解析】根据we navigated the hard path toward，在 “接下来（followed)” 的一年里，他们艰难地走在捐赠和“接受（receiving)”器官的道路上，经历了诸多波折。‎ ‎53. 【答案】D ‎【解析】根据we navigated the hard path toward …句子的主语是we, 其中一人捐赠器官，则另一人“接受（receiving)”器官。‎ ‎54. 【答案】C ‎【解析】根据下文中的there were no guarantees 可知，被接受移植是一回事，但被“批准（approved)”手术是另一回事，而且没有任何保证。‎ ‎55. 【答案】A ‎【解析】根据However转折词和she needed major surgery of her own可知，Bossov开始透析，然而Onesti却“意外地（unexpectedly)” 发现自己在能够 “捐献（donate)” ‎ 器官前需要一个大手术——子宫切除术。‎ ‎56. 【答案】C ‎【解析】同上 ‎57. 【答案】A ‎【解析】 根据 both Bossov and Onesti were cleared和the kidney is functioning perfectly可知，Bossov和Onesti “最终（eventually)” 克服了一切困难，手术获得 “成功（success)”。‎ ‎58. 【答案】C ‎【解析】同上 ‎59. 【答案】D ‎【解析】根据下文中 “beyond words” 可知，Bossov非常 “感激（grateful)”，无以言表。‎ ‎60. 【答案】A ‎【解析】根据上文中的lead happy and healthy lives可知，如今Bossov和Onesti都过着开心健康的生活，他们之间的 “友谊（friendship)” 也与日俱增。‎ 第二节：语法填空（共10小题；每小题1.5分，满分15分）‎ ‎【答案】truly ‎ 61. ‎【解析】考察副词。副词修饰动词give。‎ ‎【答案】have discovered ‎ 62. ‎【解析】考察动词时态。根据So far可知句子要用现在完成时；另外researchers是主语复数形式，故答案为have discovered。‎ ‎63. 【答案】published ‎ ‎【解析】考察非谓语动词。此处为过去分词published做research的后置定语。‎ ‎64. 【答案 by ‎ ‎【解析】考察介词。句意：大声朗读会让你的记忆能力提高15%。‎ ‎65. 【答案】methods ‎ ‎【解析】考察名词。根据four可知后面的名词用复数形式。‎ ‎66. 【答案】who/that ‎ ‎【解析】考察定语从句。‎ ‎67. 【答案】higher ‎ ‎【解析】考察形容词的比较级。句意：大声读出信息的人表现出最好的保留率-学习速度提高了15%。‎ ‎68. 【答案】what ‎ ‎【解析】考察名词性从句。‎ ‎69. 【答案】reading ‎ ‎【解析】考察动词固定搭配 spend...
