第一节(共15小题；每小题2.5分，满分37.5分)
阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。
Whether you’re a grandparent who takes care of the little ones once or twice a week and is looking for interesting ways to keep them entertained, or a long-distance grandparent relying on technology to stay in touch, we’ve got you covered with the best apps for grandparents.
Story Patch (iPad) Great for boosting creativity amongst the little ones, but also a challenge that you and the pint-sized writer of your family can do together. The app allows children to create their own themed tale, paired with a choice of over 800 illustrations.
JBaby Grandparents Frame (iPad, iPhone, Android) They say that a picture is worth a thousand words. Perfect for grandparents who want nothing more than to be involved in every step of their grandchild’s development. It does require a Wi-Fi frame to work, but this can be bought from an electronic store.
Zero to Three - Let’s Play (iPad, iPhone, Android) With a little help during play time, anything is possible. The app features “boredom killers” and provides fun ideas categorized specifically by age group. Particularly useful when looking after babies or toddlers.
Little Peanut on the Go (iPad, iPhone) Ideal for parents who want to stay well-connected to their caregivers and children while away. It allows them to share schedules with you if you’re in charge of the grandchildren and it may just give them some peace of mind if they’re leaving their children for the first time.
Toilet Finder (iPad, iPhone) Especially useful when you happen to find yourself in a sticky spot (after your grandchild has alerted you to their “need” at the last minute, of course). Through ‘satellite navigation’ signals, your phone or tablet tracks the nearest loo to your current location. A potential life-saver when you’re out and about.

Mr. Guo is a teacher from Xi’an. He asked his students to hand in their homework through a QR code (二维码). “We spent an hour or two in class learning how to generate (使产生) the codes, and in the end everything gets easier,” said Guo. “When students finish the homework, they keep it on WeChat (微信). Then, each student makes his own QR code and gives it to me. So, I can check their work everywhere using my computer or telephone” .
Guo’s students like the new way and think it is interesting. “We are living in the information age. Many students like to work with computers, which makes learning more fun.” said Tingting, a student of Guo’s.
However, some parents are worried. They are afraid that their children will spend too much time on computers and less time communicating with teachers. But in fact, it’s unnecessary. Students still need to look up information in books and write it down when they do their homework. They only use the code when they hand in their work, which doesn’t take them too much time. Also, for teachers, it allows them to check the students’ work at any time. And it’s also an easy way to share homework with other students.
24．What do Mr. Guo’s students think of the new way of handing in their homework
A．They think it’s boring. B．They think it’s interesting.
C．They think it’s difficult. D．They think it’s unnecessary.
25．Some parents are worried, because they think their children will .
A．talk with their teacher face to face
B．find the QR codes too difficult to use
C．hate the new way of handing in homework
D．spend too much time on computers or phones
26．What’s the main idea of the passage
A．Some parents are worried about their children.
B．Teachers don’t need to check homework any more.
C．Using QR codes makes checking homework easier.
D．Students don’t need to hand in homework any more.
Todd Bol, a retired businessman, could never have expected that a wooden container he built in his front yard one day would have the global impact it does today.
Bol built a dollhouse-size structure that looked like a schoolhouse on a post and he put it in his yard as a free community library to remember his mother, who was a book lover and school teacher. Bol’s design gave birth to Little Free Library (LFL), a nonprofit organization that seeks to place small, accessible book exchange boxes in neighborhoods around the world. The concept is simple: Neighbors are invited to share a book, leave a book, or both. Today, there are over 50,000 of these libraries registered in 70 countries.
Almost everyone can register with LFL and start a library as long as the person keeps it in good shape and makes sure that book materials are appropriate for his/her neighborhood. Library owners can create their own library boxes; therefore, the libraries are usually unique in appearance, and there seems to be no limit to the possibilities. One library in California was built out of a used wine container; another in Texas had tiny stairs and bright colored walls. Once registered, libraries are assigned a number at LFL’s website. The LFL Index lists the locations of all libraries with GPS coordinates (坐标) and other information. Owners receive a sign saying “Little Free Library”.
People say they have been attracted to pick up a book when walking by a Little Free Library, out of curiosity and because it’s convenient. Some sidewalk librarians say they have met more neighbors since having a little library in their front yard. Bol is also most proud of the way Little Free Library is bringing communities together. “It’s started a neighborhood exchange. It gets people talking and more comfortable with their neighbors,” he says. “This leads to them helping each other.”
27．What does the underlined word “design” in Paragraph 2 refer to
A．A community center. B．A dollhouse on a post.
C．A book exchange box. D．A nonprofit organization.
28．What can we learn about the operation of a Little Free Library
A．There is no limit to the selection of books.
B．The library can come in any shape and color.
C．The library needs to hire many professional librarians.
D．The owner must first be assigned a number from the LFL website.
29．What can be inferred about Little Free Library
A．It helps improve GPS functions. B．It connects libraries around the world.
C．It makes reading accessible to the poor. D．It helps restore human connections.
30．Which of the following can be the best title for the text
A．LFL: A Booster to Shared Reading B．LFL: The Best Place to Meet Neighbors
C．Todd Bol: A Successful Book Businessman D．Reading: An Approach to Improving Yourself
As Artificial Intelligence（AI） becomes increasingly sophisticated, there are growing concerns that robots could become a threat. This danger can be avoided, according to computer science professor Stuart Russell, if we figure out how to turn human values into a programmable code.
Russell argues that as robots take on more complicated tasks, it’s necessary to translate our morals into AI language.
For example, if a robot does chores around the house, you wouldn’t want it to put the pet cat in the oven to make dinner for the hungry children. “You would want that robot preloaded with a good set of values,” said Russell.
Some robots are already programmed with basic human values. For example, mobile robots have been programmed to keep a comfortable distance from humans. Obviously there are cultural differences, but if you were talking to another person and they came up close in your personal space, you wouldn’t think that’s the kind of thing a properly brought-up person would do.
It will be possible to create more sophisticated moral machines, if only we can find a way to set out human values as clear rules.
Robots could also learn values from drawing patterns from large sets of data on human behavior. They are dangerous only if programmers are careless.
The biggest concern with robots going against human values is that human beings fail to so sufficient testing and they’ve produced a system that will break some kind of taboo（禁忌）.
One simple check would be to program a robot to check the correct course of action with a human when presented with an unusual situation.
If the robot is unsure whether an animal is suitable for the microwave, it has the opportunity to stop, send out beeps(嘟嘟声), and ask for directions from a human. If we humans aren’t quite sure about a decision, we go and ask somebody else.
The most difficult step in programming values will be deciding exactly what we believe in moral, and how to create a set of ethical rules. But if we come up with an answer, robots could be good for humanity.
31．What does the author say about the threat of robots
A．It may constitute a challenge to computer progranmers.
B．It accompanies all machinery involving high technology.
C．It can be avoided if human values are translated into their language.
D．It has become an inevitable peril as technology gets more sophisticated.
32．What would we think of a person who invades our personal space according to the author
A．They are aggressive. B．They are outgoing.
C．They are ignorant. D．They are ill-bred.
33．How do robots learn human values
A．By interacting with humans in everyday life situations.
B．By following the daily routines of civilized human beings.
C．By picking up patterns from massive data on human behavior.
D．By imitating the behavior of property brought-up human beings.
34．What will a well-programmed robot do when facing an unusual situation
A．keep a distance from possible dangers.
B．Stop to seek advice from a human being.
C．Trigger its built-in alarm system at once.
D．Do sufficient testing before taking action.
35．What is most difficult to do when we turn human values into a programmable code
A．Determine what is moral and ethical.
B．Design some large-scale experiments.
C．Set rules for man-machine interaction.
D．Develop a more sophisticated program.

Do you want to look slim Here are four easy walking ways to help you lose weight.
●The I'm-so-mad walk. 36 You’ll not only get a great physical workout, but you’ll also burn off some of the stress in your body. So when you feel annoyed, go for a walk to lose weight.
First step: You can shout wildly, and gesture to yourself. But invite a friend or a family member who understands the situation to join you so as not to attract too much attention. 37 . Sure enough, you will feel free.
● 38 Studies show that you can actually get muscle fibers to fire by imagining yourself performing an activity. Look for opportunities to be “active” rather than to “exercise”.
First step: On days when you're too busy to walk, at least spend a few quiet minutes with your eyes closed. Imagine yourself walking powerfully and purposefully. It will help you develop muscle memory.
●The mini walk. If your day is too packed for your typical 45-minute walk, then take just three separate 15-minute periods. 39 Besides, you’ll keep your metabolism (新陈代谢) working throughout the day so you'll burn more calories.
First step: It's the same way that basketball players use to train shots mentally. That's a key difference. The latter often feels like an interruption to the day, while the former is a natural part of it.
●The parking and walk. Do you live too far from workplace to walk 40 You’ll get your exercise almost without realizing it, save gas, and build a stress-easing area around your workday.
First step: Dress in casual clothes and walking shoes, and then change into your business clothes at the office.

71．阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。
A 12-year-old boy saw something in a shop window that set his heart racing. It was a necklace with shining pearls. But the price, five dollars would buy almost a week’s groceries for his family.
Reuben couldn’t ask his father for the money. Everything his father made through fishing went to his mother, Dora, who struggled to feed and clothe her five children.
Nevertheless, he opened the shop’s door and went inside. Standing proud and straight in his flour-sack shirt and washed-out trousers, he told the shopkeeper what he wanted, adding, “Once we went to New York, my mum saw a same one. I know she liked it very much, because she fixed her eyes on it. I will buy it for her. But I don’t have the money right now. Can you please hold it for me for some time ”
“I’ll try,” the shop owner smiled. “People around here don’t usually have that kind of money to spend on such good-looking but costly things. It should keep for a while. ”
Reuben respectfully touched his worn cap and walked out. He had made up his mind to raise the five dollars and not tell anybody.
Hearing the sound of hammering from a side street, Reuben had an idea. He discovered that he could collect the hessian sacks (麻袋) thrown away in the street and sell them back for five cents a piece.
Every day after school, Reuben walked down the town, collecting the hessian sacks. On the day when summer holiday began, no student was more delighted than Reuben. Now he would have more time for his “work”.
All summer long, Reuben kept on his secret task. Soon the leaves fell and the winds blew cold. Reuben wandered in the streets, diligently searching for his hessian treasures. Often, he was cold, tired and hungry, but the thought of the object in the shop window supported him.
Eventually, the time had come! It was Mothers’ Day. He poured the coins out and began to count. Then he counted again. He made it! Exactly five dollars, not a cent more, not a cent less.
注意：1. 续写词数应为150左右；2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
Holding the money in hands tightly, Reuben headed for the shop.

32．D 细节理解题。由invade our personal space定位到第四段最后“obviously there are…，you wouldn’t think that’s the kind of thing a properly brought-up person would do.”你不会觉得这是一个受过良好教育的人会做的事。ill-bred意为“粗野的，没有教养的”，答案是对最后一句话的同义转述。

【名师点睛】细节题的破解一般采用寻读法，即先看试题，再读文章。对有关信息进行快速定位，再将相关信息进行整合、甄别、分析、对比，有根有据地排除干扰项，选出正确答案。此法加强了阅读的针对性，提高了做题的准确率，节省了宝贵的时间。寻读法还特别适用于对图形表格类题材的理解。做此类型的题目还要特别注意句子的逻辑关系。英语中有许多功能词，如：表因果关系的because, since, as等；表转折关系的but, however ,on the contrary, on the other hand等等。【小题1】C细节理解题。定位到第一段，This danger can be avoided if we figure out how to turn human values into a programmable code.前一句提到了机器人有可能会成为一种威胁，后一句提到如果我们可以想出能够把人类价值转换成计算机编码，这种威胁就可以避免。C项是原文的同义转换。

So when you feel annoyed, go for a walk to lose weight. (你不仅能得到很好的身体锻炼，还能燃烧掉身体里的一些压力。所以当你感到烦恼的时候，去散散步减肥)”可知，本段介绍的走路方式适合有压力或者烦躁的时候用，所以选项E“当有什么事让你生气的时候，不要撞墙，而要在马路上走起来”，符合本段中心意思，即承接上文，下文也是对本空内容进一步延伸，故选E。
37．上文“But invite a friend or a family member who understands the situation to join you so as not to attract too much attention. (但是你可以邀请一位了解情况的朋友或家人加入你的行列，以免引起太多的注意)”建议找个人陪你走，所以选项F“你会惊讶于和他或她在一起后你会感觉多么好 ”说明上文建议给你带来的好处，对上文内容的进一步的说明，故选F。

(如果你的一天安排的太满了，不适合你一贯的45分钟散步，那么就分三次15分钟的走)”，选项D“你将获得同样多的健康益 处”，承接上文，说明上文这种方式的好处，也对应下文“Besides, you’ll keep your metabolism (新陈代谢) working throughout the day so you'll burn more calories. (此外，你会让你的新陈代谢一整天都在工作，这样你会燃烧更多的热量)”对这种方式益处的进一步说明，故选D。
40．本段中心句是“The parking and walk (停车然后步行)”的这种方式。上文“Do you live too far from workplace to walk (你住的地方离工作场所太远而不适合走路吗？)”，所以选项G“然后有时开车到一英里外，停车，然后步行 ”对应了本段的中心意思，也是针对上文问题的一种建议，故选G。

71．参考范文：
Holding the money in his hands tightly, he headed for the shop. “I’ve got the money!” Reuben declared to the shop owner. The man put the necklace into a delicate box, wrapped it in brown paper, and then placed the box in Reuben’s hands. Holding the box, Reuben’s eyes glittered with joy. After exchanging goodbyes with the shop owner, Reuben rushed home to surprise his mother. “Mom! It’s for you!” Reuben exclaimed as he ran to her side. He placed the box in her hand.
Mother opened the box carefully, and a shining necklace appeared. She couldn’t believe her eyes. She took the pearl necklace out and cautiously put it on, tears of happiness beginning to blur her vision. Dora had never received such a precious gift. It was the best Mothers’ Day gift she had ever received. Yes, she was indeed not rich, but she was indeed happy. With tears rolling down her weather- beaten face, she smiled and scooped her son into her arms.
