He had just parked around the comer from his own house when he got a call from his daughter: "The house next door is on fire!" He went to look. That's when he saw an old woman crying outside.‎ ‎"The baby's in there!" she cried. Though the fire department had been called, Surrell, then 64, ran inside without hesitation. Entering the burning house was like "running into a bucket of black paint," Surrell says. The thick smoke burned his eyes and made it impossible to breathe. The conditions would have been dangerous for anyone, but for Surrell, who had lung disease, they were life-threatening.‎ After a few minutes in the smoke-filled house, he retreated outside to catch his breath. "Where is Tiara?" he asked desperately.‎ ‎“The second floor," the old woman shouted back.‎ Taking a deep breath, Surrell went in a second time. Because the house had a similar layout to ‎ his, he found the stairs and made it to the second floor.‎ ‎“Baby girl, where are you?”‎ His throat and lungs burned as if he'd breathed fire instead of the smoke in the air. He couldn't open his eyes. All he could hear was the crackling （破裂声）of burning wood. Then a soft sound came out. Still unable to see, Surrell fell to his knees on the hot wood floor and climbed toward the sound, feeling around for any sign of the girl.‎ Finally, he touched something. A shoe, then an ankle. He pulled the baby toward him. Her body was weak and she wasn't breathing. He carried her into his arms and ran blindly into the blackness. The next thing he knew, he was at the front door, then outside.‎ ‎24. Why was the old woman crying outside?‎ A. She lost the baby in the fire.‎ B. The baby was hurt in the fire.‎ C. The baby was in the burning house.‎ D. She couldn't call the fire department.‎ ‎25. What can be learned from the first two paragraphs?‎ A. Surrell's daughter worked in a fire department.‎ B. Surrell would probably have been killed by the fire.‎ C. The smoke blanketed Surrell' s house from next door.‎ D. A bucket of black paint blocked Surrell's way to the house.‎ ‎26. How did Surrell find the baby on the second floor?‎ A. By searching on his knees.‎ B. By opening the back door.‎ C. By shouting repeatedly'‎ D. By turning on the light.‎ ‎27. Which of the following best describes Surrell?‎ A. Determined and patient.‎ B. Independent and devoted.‎ C. Generous and reliable.‎ D. Courageous and caring.‎ C Shanghai, the first Chinese mainland city to carry out a compulsory garbage classification regulation in July, is using intellectual platforms that can count the amount of garbage residents dump（倒）to promote recycling.‎ A residential area in Shanghai's Baoshan district is using 10 sets of such smart bins. Through data shown on the screen, staff of the platform will know the amount of garbage collected and when and who dumped them. The smart bin can also help social workers. For example, for elderly people living alone, a social worker will go to their home to check if the elderly people failed to dump garbage.‎ The "green fortune can!'' issued in 2016 by Shanghai environmental authorities is the base of the big data platform. The card is meant to encourage daily garbage sorting and to build an eco-friendly way of life in the city, according to the city government's website. Residents can swipe （刷）the card after selecting the waste type on a screen above the smart bins, and the bin will open automatically. After the trash is dumped, residents will receive corresponding points which they could exchange for small gifts.‎ The city government said more than 7.28 million Shanghai families have joined the project, and 6.31 million cards have been distributed. Residents and experts welcomed the use of high-tech equipment in garbage recycling, saying it is more convenient than expected.‎ But proper garbage handling and necessary construction should catch up to avoid such a good idea from becoming a formalism project, Luo Yameng, a Beijing-based urban-planning and eco-city expert, told the Global Times on Thursday.‎ In the future, the community's management company would also issue garbage bags attached with QR codes, which would make it convenient for management departments to track residents who break garbage recycling regulations.‎ The Global Times reporter found that similar measures have been applied in some areas in Beijing, which is drafting its own garbage recycling regulations.‎ ‎28. How does the smart bin help social workers?‎ A. By signaling when garbage is dumped.‎ B. By offering data about where garbage is put.‎ C. By tracing the people who dumped garbage.‎ D. By showing how much garbage is collected.‎ ‎29. Which of the following is the first step for residents to use the dustbin?‎ A. Swiping the card.‎ B. Dumping the garbage.‎ C. Selecting the waste type.‎ D. The bin opens automatically.‎ ‎30. What can be learned from the expert Luo Yameng?‎ A. More and more families will be likely to join the project.‎ B. Garbage classification needs to be open to further discussion.‎ C. The use of high-tech equipment is much better than expected.‎ D. Follow-up measures should be taken to guarantee the success.‎ ‎31. What is the best title for the passage?‎ A. Green Fortune Card—A Card for Your Family B. Shanghai Gets Tough with Incorrect Trash Sorting C. Big Data, Smart Devices Help Shanghai Sort Garbage D. Compulsory Garbage Classification Regulation in Shanghai D I’ve been teaching college for many years, long enough to note the steady relaxation of attention in matters of student dress . I've long grown used to the tom jeans, flip-flops, shorts in the dead of the Maine winter, and ball caps worn backward. Still, I took note recently when one of my students showed up in pajama bottoms. I couldn’t' t help stopping him and remarking, ''Did you just roll out of bed?"‎ His response: "Five minutes ago.”‎ I'm familiar with the school of thought that says that how students dress is irrelevant, so long as they' re learning. I deposit it in the same category as "Grammar and spelling don't matter, so long as they're expressing themselves." Perhaps. But I also wonder about the wisdom of confusing the line between bed and desk. I should think that dressing properly before entering a formal environment, such as a college lecture hall, is a sort of visible reminder to oneself (and one's teachers) that impressions are important and that we have come together to get down to business.‎ I smile when I think back on the occasions that my parents associated with needing to look ‎ presentable. Once, when I was 11 and my brother 9, my father announced that he was taking us into Manhattan (just a subway ride away) to see the film of "2001: A Space Odyssey.” My brother and I were happy at the prospect, but were soon deflated when my father directed us to put on our best clothes, including jackets and ties. "But why?” I begged, not wanting to change out of my comfortable jeans, T-shirt, and sneakers.‎ ‎“Because,” he said, "we're going to New York. Other people would observe and assess us based on our appearance.”‎ So yes, V m all for freedom of choice in matters of dress, and yes, I do want my students to be comfortable. But I also want to pay my respects to those students who believe that appearances count.‎ ‎32. Why did the author stop the student?‎ A. He got up too late.‎ B. He was late for class.‎ C. He disobeyed the rules.‎ D. He wore pajama bottoms.‎ ‎33. What does the underlined word "deflated” in the fourth paragraph mean?‎ A. Discouraged. B. Relaxed.‎ C. Surprised. D. Worried.‎ ‎34. Why does the author mention his childhood experience?‎ A. To introduce the topic.‎ B. To entertain the reader.‎ C. To remember his father.‎ D. To support his argument.‎ ‎35. What does the author argue in the passage?‎ A. Students should have a dress code.‎ B. Pajama bottoms should be banned.‎ C. Bad behavior leads to poor learning.‎ D. School uniforms matter to students.‎ 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。‎ With high rents and low wage growth, it's hardly surprising that young adults increasingly rely on parents for financial support. 36 A survey last year estimated that the $500 billion in financial help that parents give adult children is double what those same parents manage to save for retirement. Nearly 75% parents reported they put their adult kids' needs ahead of retirement.‎ ‎ 37 The less you have saved for retirement, the more likely you will feel money-stressed in retirement—that' s not the goal, right?—and you may end up needing to rely on your kids for help in your later years. That' s surely not an outcome the entire family wants.‎ The decision to provide financial support for an adult child is, of course, personal. That said, if you have even the tiniest worries about retirement security, you owe it to your entire family to reconsider your support. Not overnight, but by setting a timeline expectation for when your child will be independent. 38 ‎ Let adult kids contribute to family expenses. Once an adult child has a job, even if they are still living at home, it's time to have them participate in paying bills. At least, they should pay their share of a family cellphone plan.‎ ‎ 39 Helping an adult child get established is one thing, but often help can extend into financing a nicer — than — needed lifestyle. For example, give money for groceries so they don't exist on a poor diet. 40 However, buying for a new car (which should be a used car) or contributing to rent for their own place (rather than shared) is you not setting smart limits.‎ Anyway, you must have enough savings to take care of yourself.‎ A. Set limits on what you will help with.‎ B. Make a major financial sacrifice for adult kids.‎ C. Besides, helping rent a shared apartment is also reasonable.‎ D. While the support is financial, we' re not talking pocket money.‎ E. And most importantly, you can also establish clear financial boundaries.‎ F. You should reduce your budget to come up with the extra cash to help.‎ G. Parents who make that choice could set everyone up for a difficult future.‎ 第三部分 语言知识运用（共两节，满分45分）‎ 第一节（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A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出可以填入空白处 的 最佳选项。‎ I’ve done almost every sport I can think of, so I've had a lot of coaches.

There will be more sunshine here, and the temperatures could be as high as 15 degrees in these regions. If you* re lucky enough to be going to southern France or Spain, you'll find the best of today's weather. In the south of Spain, mainly clear skies, lots of sun with high temperatures for the lime of year up to 24 degrees, and 18 or 19 degrees with some cloud in the north. Further east, in Switzerland, there will be stormy weather during the day with thunder and lightning. Strong winds and rain will continue most of the day. The winds will make it feel much cooler for the time of year with temperatures struggling to reach 10 degrees. And watch out for early morning fog. So that's it.‎ ‎（停顿（00'02"重复 停顿（00'20"）‎ 第二节到此结束。 现在，你有两分钟的时间将试卷上的答案转涂到答题卡上。‎ ‎（停顿 02'00"）‎ 听力部分到此结束。‎
