There lay my house, reduced to waist-high ruins, smelly and dirty.‎ Before the trip, I’d had my car fixed. When the office employee of the garage was writing up the bill, she noticed my Louisiana license plate. “You from New Orleans?” she asked. I said I was, “No charge.” She said, and firmly shook her head when I reached for my wallet. The next day I went for a haircut, and the same thing happened.‎ As my wife was studying in Florida, we decided to move there and tried to find a rental house that we could afford while also paying off a mortgage(抵押贷款) on our ruined house. We looked at many places, but none was satisfactory. We’d begun to accept that we’d have to live in extremely reduced circumstances for a while, when I got a very curious e-mail from a James Kemmedy in California. He’d read some pieces I’d written about our sufferings for slate, the online magazine and wanted to give us (“no ‎ conditions attached”) a new house across the lake from New Orleans. It sounded too good to be true, but I replied, thanking him for his exceptional generosity, that we had no plans to go back. Then a poet at the University of Florida offered to let his house to me while he went to England on his one –year paid leave. The rent was rather reasonable. I mentioned the poet’s offer to James Kemdedy, and the next day he sent a check covering our entire rent for eight months.‎ Throughout this painful experience, the kindness of strangers has done much to bring back my faith in humanity. It’s almost worth losing your worldly possessions to be reminded that people are really nice when given had a chance. ‎ ‎21. What do we know about James Kemnedy?‎ A. He was a writer of an online magazine B. He offered the author a new house free of charge.‎ C. He was a poet at the University of Florida.‎ D. He learned about the author’s sufferings.‎ ‎22. It can be inferred from the text that .‎ A. houses were difficult to find in the hurricane stricken area B. rents were comparatively reasonable despite the disaster C. the author’s family was in financial difficulty D. the mortgage on the ruined house was paid off by the bank ‎23. Which would be the best title for the text?‎ A. Terrible Hurricane Katrina but comfortable life on our own.‎ B. The Importance of Helping Others in reward.‎ C. Life and study free of rent in Florida, feeling grateful.‎ D. Hurricane Is Heartless While Strangers Are Kind.‎ ‎ B In recent decades, countries around the world have made great progress against malaria. However, a new report from the World Health Organization ‎ (WHO) says that progress is at risk.‎ This WHO annual report looks at the global fight against the disease. It says that malaria cases are on the rise in several countries.‎ Many countries are moving toward eliminating malaria, among them Madagascar, Senegal and Zimbabwe. However, the WHO report warns that in others, progress has stalled.‎ Malaria cases increased by more than 20 percent from 2015 to 2016 in eight African countries - including Rwanda, Nigeria and the Democratic Republic of Congo.‎ At the same time, funding for malaria prevention and treatment has leveled off, reaching $2.7 billion in 2016. This amount is less than half of the 2020 target.‎ Professor David Conway is from the London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine. He says money for fighting malaria has plateaued , meaning it has not increased in a long time.‎ Overall, Africa continues to suffer the most from malaria. In 2016, just over 400,000 people died from the disease. This is slightly less than in 2015. However, in Africa the malaria parasite does not yet appear to be developing drug resistance.‎ The same cannot be said for Southeast Asia.‎ Conway explains that there are renewed concerns that in Southeast Asia malaria will become drug-resistant in the future.‎ The WHO is calling for improving the coverage of existing methods of malaria prevention as well as an urgent investment in new tools -- namely a malaria vaccine.‎ Professor Conway said, "More research is needed to develop an effective malaria vaccine that could cover the populations that at the moment have high malaria rates and that perhaps don't use the available interventions even when they are being funded."‎ Several malaria vaccines are under development. Starting in 2018, the WHO is planning a major trial of the RTSS vaccine in Kenya, Ghana and Malawi.‎ But this latest report from the WHO warns that the world is at a crossroads. Without better funding and more effective tools to fight malaria, the progress made in recent decades could be undone.‎ ‎24.Which of the following statements is true?‎ A. A bit less than 400,000 people died from malaria in African countries.‎ B. Less money has been put in malaria prevention and treatment.‎ C. More people are suffering from malaria in the past decade.‎ D. Malaria cases increased more than 20 percent in eight African countries in 2016.‎ ‎25. What does the word “they” in Paragraph 3 from the bottom mean?‎ A. malaria B. the available interventions ‎ C. the populations D. malaria rates ‎26. Why does the WHO show the worry about the battle of anti-malaria nowadays?‎ A. Progress of fighting malaria is greatly short of money and effective tools B. More and more people cannot get treatment for malaria in time.‎ C. No countries are likely to have got funding and effective tools from the WHO.‎ D. Some malaria sufferers in Africa have refused to get treatments from the WHO.‎ C The effect of artificial intelligence (AI) will be felt across various industries, and advertising is no different. From programmatic buying to e-commerce, AI is already changing how brands connect with consumers. The real future of AI in advertising will rely on people working together to ‎ create experiences which bring real value to consumers. ‎ ‎“Brands don't just exist because of what they say but because of what they do. They must create new customer interactions (互 动),” says Ogilvy Consulting Senior Partner Pierre Robinet.“These interactions have to be useful, sharable and personal, providing an essential service at the right moment and in the right place.”‎ ‎ It is predicted that by 2020, 85 per cent of customer interactions will be managed without the need for a human being. This presents a fantastic opportunity to rethink customer strategy (策 略). How do we connect with an AI-empowered customer who speaks more than he writes, who uses his face and fingers to interact with his devices, who prizes a hassle-free experience? ‎ ‎“AI is going to influence the revenue (收 益) structure of any company,”says Robinet.“Sellers are always trying to be more exact in predicting which product you want to get from their platform. Amazon is already moving goods into their warehouses (仓 库) based entirely on predictive demand, moving the model from‘shopping then delivery' to‘delivery then shopping.” We We are presently in an exciting period of experimentation, where brands and marketers are exploring the different possibilities and applications of AI. Decision-makers now must figure out how AI can influence business models and be a driver of growth.‎ ‎ In order to overcome fear and mistrust of issues like the mishandling of data, Robinet believes that each and every consumer should be equipped to understand these technologies so they can make a wise decision.“On one side, we need more fairness and ethics (道 德 标 准) in AI, as well as specific frameworks and rules to do so,”he says.“While on the other, we need to give people the right tools, services and education, and motivate them to share their data.” ‎ ‎27. What is the author's attitude towards using AI in advertising? ‎ A. Cautious. B. Favourable. C. Doubtful. D. Worried.‎ ‎28. What does the underlined word“hassle-free”in Paragraph 3 most probably mean?‎ A. Real-life. B. First-hand. C. Convenient. D. Professional.‎ ‎29. Why is Amazon mentioned in Paragraph 4? ‎ A. To show AI can help entirely reshape business models.‎ B. To explain sellers always know customers better. ‎ C. To prove consumers are likely to interact with machines.‎ D. To show AI can free people from tough jobs.‎ ‎30. What can we infer from the last paragraph? ‎ A. People's fear of AI is increasing. ‎ B.AI can help people make decisions. ‎ C. More and more people are unwilling to share their data.‎ D. People must know AI well before they accept it.‎ 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。‎ Promoting harmony (和谐) in a community is an extraordinary challenge. It often requires the work and devotion of many community members. ‎ As a young adult, you can begin with helping a neighbor, friend or family member in need. 31 For example, you can help your neighbor by trying things like taking care of their pets while they are away on vacation. ‎ ‎32 Look online for local organizations and charities in your area that need volunteers. Volunteering during your free time can help you feel connected to others in a positive way. 33 This can broaden your social network and make you feel less alone in the world. ‎ Do you get any allowance (零用钱) from any of your family members? 34‎ ‎ Give a donation to a local advocacy group in your area or to a national campaign that supports your goals and values. You can donate money to a worthy cause once a year or once a month, based on your income. ‎ What’s more, you can also promote your community's harmony by playing an active part in community events. 35 When you find some, help the community workers at these events and donate some goods or money. This can help you feel more connected to your community. ‎ A. You can also shop at local businesses.‎ B. Volunteering at a local organization is another choice.‎ C. If so, making a donation to a worthy cause is a good idea. ‎ D. However, you can help to promote harmony within your community. ‎ E. It's also a great way to meet like-minded people and make new friends ‎ F. Often check the local community boards for postings about local events.‎ G. Show those around you that you care by offering them assistance when they need it.‎ 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。‎ I was at the market at 5 pm, the worst time of day to shop, to pick up a few _36__: cream for coffee, eggs for breakfast and Advil for my headache. ‎ I had been __37__ all day doing jobs for people.
