阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项（A、B、C、和D）中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。
A
A cute white cat peeks out of a hole with only its head visible. A long-eared rabbit licks its lips while looking up at a carrot. These aren’t real scenes in a natural park. Instead, they’re paintings in tree holes on a road in Shijiazhuang,
Hebei province. Hundreds of people are visiting the artistic road to take photos of the new paintings.
The creator of these eye-catching paintings is Wang Yue, 23. She describes her tree hole paintings as “a beautiful journey” through which she adds fun and vitality (活力) to her hometown.
“When I saw the trees by the roadside had lost all their leaves, and the ugly tree holes became obvious, I thought that if I could paint some interesting scenes in these holes they might add some color to the city,” said Wang Yue.
But Wang was worried that her watercolor paints could hurt the trees. When Wang got permission from city officials, she gathered her color palette, brushes and a stool and got to work.
Her first painting was of rosy clouds, but many passers-by couldn’t understand it. “Perhaps it was too abstract,” said Wang Yue. After that, she began to paint animals. Using her paintbrush she creatively placed a raccoon(浣熊), a squirrel and a cat in the holes.
Wang’s friends shared her works on their micro blogs and she became a hit. Her next aim is to tell stories rather than painting individual animals. “I was glad to let people see life’s beauty. I hope more artists can join me in painting the tree holes,” she said.
21. Why did Wang Yue begin to create paintings in the tree holes?
A. To practice painting and have fun.
B. To prevent the tree leaves from falling.
C. To have passers-by take photos of her paintings.
D. To make the city more colorful and lively.
22. Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage?
A. Wang’s first painting hurt the trees and city officials stopped her work.
B. Wang’s first painting wasn’t popular because she wasn’t skillful then.
C. Wang became successful partly because of her friends’ micro blogs.
D. Wang would continue to centre her works on individual animals.
23. Which is the best title for the text?
A. Paintings in Tree Holes Become Popular.
B. Paintings Bring Grey Road to Life.
C. Wang Yue---A Girl Who Has Become a Hit.
D. Join in Painting the Tree Holes!

Visit tfl.gov.uk/tube for more information.
Tip:
Always stand on the right when using the escalators (电动扶梯) at Tube stations. It can get hot and busy on the Tube during peak travel times, so you may prefer to travel outside these hours.

As graduation draws near, those who haven’t landed a job yet may be desperate to find one. Perhaps some of the job offers they have received are below their skill and experience levels. Is it better to take these offers, or reject them and remain unemployed?
Recently, David Pedulla, a University of Texas sociologist, conducted a study about how taking a job below your skill level could affect your future employment.
In the study, Pedulla developed resumes for imaginary job applicants. The job
seekers he created had a few things in common. They had a college degree, worked nearly two years at their first job, and about 4.5 years at their second job. What differed was their third job in the most recent year. They either had a full-time job that matched their skills, a part-time job below their skill levels, or were unemployed.
Then Pedulla submitted 2,420 resumes based on his imaginary job seekers, along with cover letters, to online ads for 1,210 real jobs. Each applicant had a real phone number that employers could contact if they were interested in talking with the applicant further.
The callback rates varied widely based on how the imaginary job seekers had spent their last year. The applicants who had full-time jobs the previous year were called back 10.4 percent of the time. Those whose most recent year of employment was in a job below their skill levels were only called back about 5 percent. Male applicants unemployed for a year were called back 4.2 percent of the time, while the figure is 7.5 percent for unemployed females.
However, Pedulla cautioned that the experiment only measured the initial interest of employers in his fictional job candidates, not whether the employers would hire them or what they would be paid based on their most recent job experiences.
28. The purpose of the first paragraph is ________ .
A. to lead in the topic
B. to present an argument
C. to shock the reader
D. to describe the present situation in job seeking
29. Which statement is NOT true about Pedulla’s experiment?
A. The applicants had some things in common at their first two jobs.
B. The applicants’ resumes and phone numbers are created by Pedulla.
C. The applicants’ most recent job experiences affected the callback rates.
D. Unemployed female applicants got a higher callback rate than males.
30. What can be inferred from the last paragraph?
A. The applicants with a high callback rate would surely be hired.
B. The applicants’ most recent job experiences would decide their salaries.
C. There are some limits about what lessons can be taken from the study.
D. It is better to take a job offer below one’s skill level than to reject it.
31. In which section may the text appear in a newspaper?
A. Career B. Science C. Culture D. Education
D
A funny thing happened between China’s first female Nobel Prize winner, Tu Youyou, giving her acceptance speech in Sweden and that speech reaching her home country: Two entirely different versions appeared, and the fake one became a viral hit.
Guess which version is genuine? The one that matter-of-factly tells about the discovery of artemisinin(青蒿素), or the one with extreme literary style, complete
with her father explaining the origin of her given name and poetic lines such as, “I like tranquility(宁静), tranquil as the leaves of sweet wormwood(蒿草).”
Most readers were so touched by the literary version that they were left in tears. However, they just forgot that Tu is not a woman of letters, but one of science. It was totally made up by someone who obviously has great literary talent, but could not fathom the inner life of a scientist.
I don’t know who made up the Tu speech, or for what purpose. It does not strike me as funny. Fortunately, no mainstream media seemed to have been fooled. Yet the fake one has probably been shared more than the real one because it played to the Chinese stereotype(固定形式) of what such a speech should be.
China’s cyberspace(信息空间) is full of educational and uplifting quotes, and quite a lot of them are made up. There is a joke that says the United States’ spying network collected and examined all the Internet data in China and found that the Chinese are addicted to such chicken soup, including that from untrustworthy sources.
32. The reason why many readers were moved to tears by the fake speech is that ________.
A. it was based on Tu’s real life
B. it was written in literary style
C. the readers had passions for science
D. the readers knew about the origin of Tu’s given name
33. What does the underlined word “letters” mean in the fourth paragraph?
A. Written messages addressed to a person or organization.
B. Characters in an alphabet that represent speech sounds.
C. Certificate or license.
D. Literary knowledge, ability, or learning
34. Why has the fake speech been shared more than the real one?
A. Because it was the Chinese stereotype.
B. Because many mainstream medias were fooled.
C. Because it was funny.
D. Because the writer understood the inner life of a scientist.
35. The purpose of the article is to _______________ .
A. prove that Chinese are addicted to fake news
B. prove that Chinese scientists have no literary talent
C. tell us there are a lot of fake news on the Internet
D. find out who made up the fake speech

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。
The rules about how to talk, eat and sit, which are highly limited, are observed in most Western restaurants and homes. 36 Many Westerners have no idea how to act at the Chinese dinner table. No forks or knives for them to use! The Chinese
host makes great, sweeping arm movements that go over large sections of the table, passing over both food and friends alike. 37 However, it leaves many foreigners at a loss for what to do.
In my childhood home, dinner was enjoyed with low voices, and the topics that we could discuss were very limited. 38 If I had to leave the table to use the toilet, I had to excuse myself without mentioning what it was that I was going to do. “May I be excused, please? I need to wash my hands.” I would say. My mother would say, “Sure.” My father would often play a joke on me by saying, “ 39 ”
As for eating, we did it quietly. No eating noises were allowed. Everything must be done as quietly as possible. If any sound was created by eating food or drinking, it would be considered as bad manners!
40 He is to sit up straight with the recessive hand (usually the left) in one’s lap holding a napkin while the dominant hand (usually the right) holds the fork or spoon. The only time one is allowed to have both hands on the table is when he is using a knife to cut something.
A. How one sits at the table is also prescribed.
B. We were not allowed to talk about anything that made listeners uncomfortable.
C. Can't you think up a better excuse than that?
D. They’re completely different from what we find here in China.
E. Your hands don’t look dirty!
F. The scene is fantastic.
G. In general they were all strictly forbidden topics.

44．C 根据后句 “She opened the windows, let the fresh air in, opened a can of paint, and put a fresh 45 on the walls of a room.”可知此空应填decoration（装饰）。
45．A 用油漆粉刷房间，就好像为房间的墙壁穿上一件大衣一样。此外，最后一段的 “I would let my room put on a new coat of paint”也提示了答案。
46．D
下文作者用了很大的篇幅说明春天到来后，妈妈为他们买新运动鞋，让他们脱去冬天的厚重的鞋子。由此可知，春天也是作者更换鞋子的季节。
47．C 根据 “from late December until late March”可知，这段时间是地面上连续不断地有雪的时间。

52．B 根据后文 “The door shut 53 behind us when we rushed out, causing…”可知，作者和他的兄弟们一到家就“穿上”(put on)新运动鞋出去飞奔。
53．A 此处显示了作者和他的兄弟们穿上新运动鞋后激动的心情----关门都非常用力。
54．D 因为作者和他的兄弟们关门声音太大，所以他们的父亲会生气地大喊一声。

56．B 由后文 “through the air” 和 “jump thirty feet like a kangaroo”可知此处应填flying。
57．A 由常识可知这里表示春天的暖风。此外，第二段的 “The first warm day would cause my mum to …”也提示了答案。
58．C 春天来了，作者脱掉沉重的鞋子穿上了新买的运动鞋，想到夏天的到来和感受温暖的春风令人很快活。
59．B 根据前一分句 “When life gets me down”可知，这一分句同样应表示生活中会有不尽如人意之处的含义，所以选hopeless。

W: So I turn left at the traffic lights, right?
M: Yeah. Then keep walking until you reach the post office. You can’t miss it.
(Text 2)
M: How was the job interview? I think you’ll make a good reporter.
W: Unfortunately, they were looking for people with plenty of experience.
(Text 3)
M: I hope the weather is nice this weekend so I can go and play basketball.
W: I heard that the weather should be good. It’s not very likely to rain.
M: Hopefully, we’ll both have good weekends.
(Text 4)
W: Can you say something on the matter? After all, you are the only person who knows what really happened.
M: That’s quite true. I think I can give something valuable.
W: So when did it happen?
M: About ten o’clock in the morning.
(Text 5)
W: Alan, have you got a meeting in Edinburgh?
M: Yes, I’m going to see some leaders from headquarters. Why?
W: I’m going to visit Glasgow on Wednesday, and it’s quite near Edinburgh.
M: Ah … I’m going to drive there tomorrow, so you can go with me.
(Text 6)
W: Darling, you look so pale.
M: I just got some bad news today.
W: What happened, Tony?
M: Today my boss called me into his office and told me they had to dismiss me. That means I’m out of work now.
W: Oh, that’s terrible! You really liked working there!
M: Yeah. This is so sudden, and I have so much to do in the company.
W: OK, well, the past is the past. Just think about what you should do next.
M: Well, I’ve already started thinking about that, and tomorrow I have some interviews.
W: Oh, that’s wonderful, darling.
(Text 7)
W: Hello! Is that the front desk? M: Yes. May I help you?
W: This is Room 117, and we have just checked in. M: Yes?
W: Our room hasn’t been cleaned up yet. Could you please send one of your cleaners to clean our room?
M: Oh, I’m very sorry, ma’am. We’ll send someone right away, probably in five minutes or so. Your room number again and your name, please?
W: Our room number is 117, and my name is Helen Chen.
M: Thank you. I’ll send someone right now.
W: Thank you. Could you please ask them to come as soon as possible? We’d like to leave for the museum in 20 minutes.

W: What is it like living in the campus housing?
M: I live in a two-bedroom house in a three-story apartment. It’s not so bad as I thought it would be. The freshmen that live nearby are really noisy, especially on weekends, but the rent is much cheaper than private housing, so it’s worth it.
W: Do you have to pay any fees besides your monthly rent?
M: No, everything is included, and students don’t have to pay state tax, so we’re saving quite a bit of money living here. Oh, just one thing — we have to pay a little extra money for water.
W: How long are you going to stay there, do you think?
M: That’s the bad thing — the rent ends in June, so we’ll have to find a new apartment soon.
W: Have you started looking yet?
M: Not yet. I’m hoping we’ll be able to find something cheap once all the students leave the city in the summer.
(Text 9)
M: Hi, Anna! It’s been such a long time since the last time we met. Have you thought of moving at all?
W: We’ve thought about it, but my husband and I can’t afford it right now.
M: Buying a house can be expensive, but there are ways to find cheaper houses.
W: Like what?
M: Well, you can definitely save money if you buy a house far from the city center.
W: That’s a good idea.
M: Yeah. My sister-in-law and her husband just bought a house like that.
W: Is the house in bad shape?
M: Not at all. The woman who owned it took really good care of it, but when she died, she had no family left, so the government sold it for her.
W: Was it a very old house?
M: It was about 75 years old. It needed a few repairs, but it didn’t take a lot of money or time.
W: Is it in a good location?
M: The area can be a bit rough in the evening, but the neighbors watch out for each other, so it’s OK.
(Text 10) (W)
Nowadays there are so many animals out there making people’s lives happier. Dogs are the best examples. As the saying goes, “a dog is a man’s best friend” — and many people have found this to be very true. Many dogs will do anything their owners ask them to do. Dogs not only entertain people, but sometimes can actually help to do some work. However, our dog, Rex, is another story. Every time he wanted to come into the garden he would bark until someone opened the gate. After the neighbors complained about the noise, my husband spent several weeks training Rex to use his paw to press the gate handle and let himself in. Rex soon became an expert at opening the gate. However, when I was going out shopping last week, I noticed him in the garden near the gate, barking so that someone would let him out! We soon found that he had developed another bad habit. After he opened the gate from the outside, he would come into the garden and wait until the gate shut. Then he would sit and bark until someone let him out. Yesterday my husband removed the gate, and Rex got so annoyed that we have not seen him since.
