It was that brief moment when the summer sun had set but the stars hadn't yet appeared. Lina rubbed her eyes and looked around.‎ ‎"Hello?" she called."Celia? Marie?"‎ There was no response.‎ The moon was rising now, shedding light on the island. They had always called it "Forgotten Island" because no one but they seemed to remember its existence. It wasn't on any of the maps they could find, and even the forest rangers didn't know about it. Lina loved that the island, hidden in a heavily-wooded side stream of the river, was a secret between the three friends -her, Celia, and Marie.‎ But now Lina was here alone, and it was night. Worse still, it was her own fault.‎ ‎"Come on, Lina, let Marie row the boat." Celia had said. Marie was two years older than Lina, but she was a hopeless rower. That's why Lina refused and rowed the boat to the island.The argument that followed the refusal took the usual form.Celia took Marie's side, as she always did. Lina had ‎ exploded and yelled at them to just leave.So they got back in the boat and left.‎ A bolt of lightning crossed the darkened sky, accompanied by a deafening thunder clap.The storm was here.As the first cold raindrop slid down her neck, Lina's mind returned to her current problem.She was stuck here by herself.She just hoped she didn't become as forgotten as the island.The thought of it sent a chill（寒意）down her back.‎ Suddenly, Lina spotted something in the water.It was a boat, and inside it were Marie, Celia, and Marie's dad, who was steering through the fast flowing waters.As the boat approached, they saw Lina waving and the worried expressions on their faces turned to relief.‎ In her excitement Lina jumped into the river.Only once she was in the icy water did she remember how fast the water was moving.Luckily a strong arm reached into the water and pulled her out.She smiled weakly at Marie's dad and, without a word, hugged Celia and Marie.They didn't seem to mind becoming wet.‎ ‎24.What can be inferred about the island？‎ A. It is very near the ocean.‎ B. It is a popular place for boating.‎ C. It is surrounded by thick forest.‎ D. It has never been reached by others.‎ ‎25.Why did Lina get angry？‎ A. Marie would not help row the boat.‎ B. Lina was left alone on the island.‎ C. Marie didn't know how to row the boat.‎ D. Celia supported Marie in the disagreement.‎ ‎26.What caused Lina to feel a chill?‎ A. Her shame about the unnecessary argument.‎ B. The first raindrops of the approaching storm.‎ C. The idea that no one would come to save her.‎ D. The drop in temperature as the sun went down.‎ ‎27.Who pulled Lina out of the water?‎ A. Marie's father.‎ B. Lina herself.‎ C. Marie.‎ D. Celia.‎ C Tourism is often about seeking deeper emotional and personal connections with the world around us. Not all travel experiences, however, need to take place in the real world. With the evolution of virtual reality(VR) technology, tourism will increasingly become a combination of physical and virtual worlds. VR may even remove the need to travel entirely.‎ But can a VR experience really equal a real world one? Many experts believe it can. Studies ‎ have shown that our brains have an inbuilt VR-like mechanism that enables us to live imagined experiences. Much of our waking life is spent thinking about either the past or the future. This is known as" mind wandering". During these events we' re not paying attention to the current world around us. Instead, we' re recalling memories, or creating and processing imagined futures.‎ When engaged in mind wandering, our brains process these mental images using the same pathways used to receive inputs from the real world. So, the imagined past or future can create emotions and feelings similar to how we react to everyday life. VR can create these same feelings.‎ While critics might argue that a virtual experience will never match reality, there are several ways VR tourism could make a positive contribution. Firstly it could help protect sensitive locations from over-tourism. In recent years famous sites such as Maya Bay in Thailand, and Cambodia's Angkor Wat Temples have had to limit the number of visitors because of their negative impact. These places are now producing their own VR experiences that will allow tourists to pass through virtual models of the sites.‎ Virtual reality may also allow people back in time, to experience historical events, visit ancient cities, and even to walk among dinosaurs.‎ Finally, in a world where many people suffer from stress and depression due to overwork, virtual tourism may provide a cheap and convenient way for people to take brief holidays to otherwise unreachable destinations and recharge their batteries, without ever leaving their homes.‎ It sounds like science fiction but it's already happening. As virtual technology improves and as people continue to demand new and interesting experiences, expect more virtual tourism, both in combination with the real world and instead of it.‎ ‎28.What is driving the development of virtual tourism?‎ A. Companies seeking to make more money.‎ B. Improvements in virtual reality technology.‎ C. People's demand for more shared experiences.‎ D. People's deeper understanding of the physical world.‎ ‎29.Which of the following best describes "mind wandering"?‎ A. The brain processes which help people think VR is real.‎ B. The way the brain processes inputs from the real world.‎ C. Brain activities focusing on past or future events.‎ D. Experiences coming from a person's imagination.‎ ‎30.What does the underlined word "it" in the last paragraph refer to?‎ A. Science fiction.‎ B. Virtual technology.‎ C. Virtual tourism.‎ D. The real world.‎ ‎31.What is the purpose of the passage?‎ A. To describe the advantages of VR tourism.‎ B. To give suggestions for reducing over-tourism.‎ C. To encourage people to develop VR technology.‎ D. To argue VR tourism will replace the real world travel.‎ D Both honeybees and ants are social insects that live in groups called colonies. They survive by means of their collective intelligence. Their decision-making power is distributed throughout the group; that is, no one ant or bee makes decisions for the group. Instead, they work together. As Deborah M. Gordon,a biologist at Stanford University, says," Ants aren't smart. Ant colonies are."‎ The same is true for bee colonies. Although bees and ants are quite different physically, they have a lot in common in terms of their social behavior. Specifically, honeybees and ants have similar roles within the colony, both have communication systems, and both have the capacity for learning.‎ Ants communicate by using chemicals called pheromones, which can alert others to danger or to a food source. For example, when worker ants find a promising source, they let the rest of the colony know how to find it by leaving a trail of pheromones on the way back to the colony. The other ants pick up the message using their sense of smell. Bees, on the other hand, use movement to communicate with each other. Worker bees send messages to each other by means of a "dance". Different speeds and movements send different messages. For example, when worker bees called scouts go out to find a new home for the colony, they return and do a dance for the other worker bees that indicates the location of the new home and how suitable it is. The faster the scouts dance, the better the new location is.‎ Honeybees and ants are both capable of learning. One Chinese study found that bees can be trained to learn and remember a route to a food source. The researchers also found that bees can be taught to recognize hidden objects and use the concepts of "sameness" and" difference"to accomplish certain tasks. Ants take this one step further. Recent American research has shown that ants not only have the ability to learn, but also can teach their foraging skills to other younger ants.‎ They observed that older ants accompany young ants in search of food and teach them the route and how to avoid obstacles.‎ As we can see, the social behavior of honeybees and ants is quite similar. Both coordinate complex actions and accomplish crucial survival tasks by cooperating in groups consisting of many individuals. Unintelligent as they may be as individuals, as groups they often show amazing brilliance as they go about their everyday activities.‎ ‎32.What do ants and bees have in common?‎ A. They live in similar-sized colonies.‎ B. They make use of collective intelligence.‎ C. They have small leadership groups that make all decisions.‎ D. They use the same methods to communicate with each other.‎ ‎33.What does the speed of a bee's dance indicate?‎ A. The quality of a new colony location.‎ B. The distance to a neighboring colony.‎ C. The discovery of a new food source.‎ D. The direction to a potential food source.‎ ‎34.In paragraph 3.how does the author demonstrate the idea that Honeybees and ants are both capable of learning ?‎ A. By using statistics.‎ B. By explaining reasons.‎ C. By referencing opinions.‎ D. By presenting study findings.‎ ‎35.What is the benefit of collective intelligence?‎ A. It allows the colony to reproduce more rapidly.‎ B. It improves work cooperation within the colony.‎ C. It reduces the division of labour among members.‎ D. It enables individuals to teach each other new skills.‎ 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.‎ What happens when you want to go from one place to another, but there's water in the way？That's the problem people faced for hundreds of years in the area that is now New York City. In the city, there is a natural canal called the Narrows, separating Brooklyn on one side from Staten Island on the other.‎ But the Narrows isn't really so narrow. The water is almost a mile wide, and it's more than 100 feet deep. 36 When they wanted to talk to each other, they climbed into their boats and sailed across.‎ By the late 1800s, circumstances had changed dramatically. Population growth meant there were now many people needing to travel between Staten Island and Brooklyn for work. 37 ‎ Between 1888 and 1920 there were two major efforts to build a train tunnel to connect the areas. ___38___ Proposals to build a connecting bridge made during the 1910s also ended in failure due to opposition from the US Navy.‎ Finally, after World War II, there were so many people living in New York City that leaders decided Brooklyn and Staten Island needed a direct connection. Since tunnels were too expensive, they decided to build a bridge. The design selected had two separate roadways stacked on top of each other. 39 Construction, which took five years, was completed in 1964 and cost $320 million. Today about 190,000 cars and trucks cross the bridge every day.‎ ‎___40___ But in the case of the Narrows, figuring out a good solution took hundreds of years.‎ A.Sometimes getting from one place to another is easy.‎ B.Both were quickly abandoned however due to the high costs involved.‎ C.Neither road was large enough to satisfy the existing transport demands.‎ D.It was anticipated that the new train system would help the areas grow even faster.‎ E.Taking a boat every time was very slow, expensive and, in bad weather, unreliable.‎ F.Both would hang in the air from thick steel cables, supported by two giant steel towers.‎ G. For a long time that wasn't a problem, because only a few people lived in Brooklyn and ‎ Staten Island.‎ 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）‎ 阅读下面短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、和D四个选项中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。‎ My father always told me: "All work is noble."
