This is a world first bolt-on application for anything with wheels." Liddiard wrote in the description of a You Tube video he uploaded to show ‎ how his invention works on an old Toyota Echo. "They are stronger, faster, and more accurately controlled than previous technology. They can take a beating. The tires can have the same build characteristics (siping, grooves, rubber compounds etc.) as regular tires. Now you can drive in all directions, and tum on the spot, when needed."‎ While the "Liddiard Wheels" shown in the video are just proof of concept prototypes(原型机), they seem to work as described by the inventor. His car can be seen spinning in place and sliding from one side to the other as the tires move under the power of 24,000 pounds of torque (扭矩) applied directly to them.‎ William is now hoping that the power of social media will help him get his invention out there and eventually team up with a company willing to help him improve the wheels and eventually bring them to the market.‎ ‎" Will a set of wheels make sideward parking an easy thing? Yeah, I’m pretty sure these things will be in high demand if they ever end up on the market." the inventor said confidently.‎ ‎32. What does the underlined word "bolted" in Paragraph I mean?‎ A. Changed.‎ B. Loaded.‎ C. Designed.‎ D. Fastened.‎ ‎33. What do the newly-invented and the traditional wheels have in common?‎ A. They use the same tires.‎ B. They have the same structure.‎ C. They are made in the same way.‎ D. They are accurately controlled.‎ ‎34. Why did the inventor post the information of his invention online?‎ A. To explain its advantages.‎ B. To seek a cooperator for it.‎ C. To challenge traditional wheels.‎ D. To show off his great achievements.‎ ‎5. What did the inventor think of his wheels?‎ A. Interesting.‎ B. Convenient.‎ C. Promising.‎ D. Priceless.‎ 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伟选项,井在答题卡上将该项涂黑。选项中有两项为多余选项。‎ Our character, basically, is made up of our habits. "Sow a habit, reap (收获) a character: sow a character reap a destiny (命运)," as the saying goes.‎ ‎36 Because they are often unconscious patterns, they constantly daily affect our character and produce our effectiveness or ineffectiveness.‎ As Horace Mann, the great educator, once said, "Hahits are like a cable. We weave a rope of it every day and soon it cannot be broken. "Habits can be learned. But we know it isn't a quick fix. 37 .‎ Many of us have watched the lunar voyage of Apollo 11. 38 But to get there. those astronauts had to break out of the tremendous gravity pull of the earth. More energy was spent in the first few minutes of lift-off, than was used over the next several days to travel half million miles.‎ ‎39 Getting rid of bad habits really requires great willpower and some changes in our lives. lift-off takes tremendous effort, but once we break out of the pull of gravity, we can enjoy great freedom.‎ Like any natural force, gravity pull can work with us or against us. The gravity pull of some of our habits may currently be keeping us from going where we want to go. But it is also gravity pull that keeps our world together and keeps the planets in their orbits. 40 We can use the gravity pull of habit to create the order necessary to establish effectiveness in our lives.‎ A. It involves a process and a great effort.‎ B. Habits are powerful factors in our lives.‎ C. Habits, too, have tremendous gravity pull.‎ D. It is a powerful force if we use it effectively.‎ E. We should try our best to get rid of our bad habits.‎ F. To break out of the pull of gravity needs great efforts.‎ G. We were surprised to see the first men walk on the moon.‎ 第三部分 语言知识运用（共两节，满分55分）‎ 第一节 完形填空（共20小题；每题1.5分，满分30分）‎ ‎ 阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中，选取可以填入空白处的最佳选项。答案写在答题卡上。‎ ‎ Albert Einstein said, "In the middle of every difficulty lies opportunity.
