72．Dear Jenny,
Thank you very much for The Adventures of Tom Sawyer you sent me on my 17th birthday. I like the book by Mark Twain because the characters in the book are lovely and clever. Tom is a very naughty boy who is adventurous while Becky is a nice girl who is always behaving boldly. What’s more, the book has wonderful plots and the words are easy to understand.
From Tom’s experience I’ve learned that our dream will come true as long as we have our own goals and stick to them.
Thank you again for your nice present.
Yours,
Li Hua

M: Here is my latest piece, Katie. What do you think of it
W: Amazing. It looks almost like a photo, similar to a famous painter’s work. You should show this in the art exhibition next month.
Text2：
W: The line is so long here! I don’t see any chance for us to get in. Let’s go to the restaurant around the corner instead.
M: But the food here is great! Are you sure you want to make a change
W: Yes, I am.
Text3：
M: I’ll attend a lecture on Wednesday. Let’s discuss this further at the Friday meeting.
W: Unfortunately, I’ll be leaving for London Thursday afternoon. Maybe we can talk that morning over breakfast.
M: Sounds great.
Text4：
M: Where are you working now, Jennifer Still in the hospital
W: No, I left the hospital and I refused the job at the drug store. I’m working as a teacher in a medical college now.
Text5：
W: Do you live very far from your office
M: Well, the distance is about 20 miles. But it doesn’t seem that far to drive to work. The road is good and there’s not much traffic.
Text6：
M: When can I collect my computer You know, I brought my computer here two weeks ago.
W: I’m sorry.We’re still repairing it.
M: Look here, every time I call, you give me the same answer.
W: Be patient, sir.We would be grateful if you could wait a few more days.
M: Wait I can’t wait anymore.
W: I understand that.But we’re trying our best to...
M: I need no excuse.
W: Alright, sir, we’ll repair the computer immediately and have it sent to you tonight.
Text7：

M: Hello. This is Jack Stewart. Is David Bowie there
W: No, I’m sorry. He has just left the office.
M: When will he be back
W: Not till Thursday. Can I take a message
M: Yes, thanks. This is Jack Stewart here. I want to talk to him about a training course he is interested in. It will start on July 12th, not on July 22nd as originally planned.
Text8：
M: Liz, I’m looking at the timetable here. It seems that there are some choices available.
W: So, what are you going to do on Monday afternoon In the morning we all have the opening lecture.
M: Well, the Careers Lecture might be helpful, but I am interested in the University Tour. So, I’m doing the tour first, then the lecture.
W: Alright. Might learn something interesting. After all, we haven’t seen much of the university yet, and we will be spending four years here.
M: On Tuesday afternoon, there’s a lecture about study skills, but that morning offers another choice.
W: Library Tour or Student Union Induction, what do you think
M: I think the student union is very important, but we can go there any time. Now we should take advantage of the library tour.
W: Ok. Wednesday morning is free, but after lunch there’s a choice between visiting the computer lab and attending a lecture on our legal rights.
M: Well, computers are the basis of everything these days, so I’m going to the computer lab.
Text9：
M: Good evening, everybody. Today we are going to talk about saving money. Many of us have to save money, but different people save money in different ways. Now we are going to talk to Kathy to see what she does. Hi, Kathy, do you try to save money
W: Sure. I’m a housewife, so I have to save money as much as possible.
M: And how do you save Can you tell us something about it
W: Well, I try not to shop in department stores or supermarkets except when things are on sale. I never pay full price. I really like shopping in outdoor markets, and I can usually find some real bargains there.
M: Great! That’s a good idea.
W: And also my husband and I don’t own a car. If we need one for a weekend, we just rent one. We can’t really afford to buy a used one.
M: I see.
W: And the best way to save money is not to pay people to fix things for you.
M: Sorry, I can’t understand that. What do you mean, Kathy
W: Well, my husband often tries to repair things around the house. We can save a lot of money that way.
M: Well, thank you very much, Kathy.
Text10：
W: You said a strange thing on our walk today. You said you love to see things rotting. I’m curious to know why you said that.
M: It’s nothing to get excited about, but I’m happy to explain. Nature is so clever in the way it makes some things rot away to nothing and then creates new life from what is left over.
W: But why did you mention it on our walk We were in the forest at the time.
M: I saw some mushrooms growing on a fallen branch. They help recycle the dead wood, so that more trees and flowers can grow. It’s a beautiful system.
W: Yes, nature is an expert recycler—and mushrooms can be as beautiful as flowers. Those little yellow ones were unusual—and do you remember the large orange ones Best of all were the red ones.
M: I could look at things like that all day. The subject really interests me. We’ll have to walk there again next Friday.
W: Thursday would be better for me.
M: I can’t make it then. I have booked an appointment at the dentist. What about Saturday
W: It’s a date. We’ll explore the magic of mushrooms.

If you saw someone fall off their bike in traffic, would you spot and help or just walk away Many people would go about their business and just do nothing. So it was a big surprise when about 100 bystanders got together recently to move a bus in east London to help a cyclist trapped under it. A video of the incident went viral on social media.
According to Zoheb, a driver who stopped his car to take part in the rescue, five more people gathered to move the bus. He says, “There was no chance we could do it；it was more an invitation for other people to help, really. Our action paid off. Diners from nearby restaurants joined in. It didn’t take long to develop a collective understanding of what the purpose was.”
Spontaneous（自发的）offer of help among strangers doesn’t happen often. People in a crowd are not sure what to do—they don’t have a plan. It’s one of the reasons bystanders often do nothing, according to Dr. Mark Levine, professor of social psychology at Exeter University in Britain. “The presence of others can prevent you from helping, ” he says.
“The key to positive group behaviour and participation”, Levine explains, “is building a sense of shared identity”. Action has to be decided quickly, Levine says. “The longer you leave it, the harder it is to make a decision. If you don’t immediately act then you may think ‘Well, actually I probably couldn’t have done anything anyway’.”
But the people who took the first action like Zoheb might make a difference. The cyclist ended up in hospital and the images of the collective effort might inspire others to more acts of support for each other.
24．What can be seen in the video on social media according to the passage
A．Strangers helped rescue someone in an accident.
B．A cyclist fell over and was badly injured.
C．People just stood by and watched an accident.
D．A cyclist was killed in an accident.
25．How was the rescue action successfully carried out
A．Zoheb moved the bus with five strangers.
B．Zoheb rushed to a nearby restaurant for help.
C．Zoheb urged all the strangers around to come to the rescue.
D．Zoheb with about 100 strangers voluntarily did it.
26．According to Mark Levine, why do some people show no concern when they should offer help
A．They think it had nothing to do with them.
B．They may be stopped by other bystanders.
C．They believe others present would do it.
D．They are probably at a loss of what to do.
27．What is the writer’s purpose to write the text
A．To support those cold-hearted. B．To praise the kindness of strangers.
C．To introduce a way to help others. D．To explain what collective effort is.
C
When you don’t have a car and need to get around, are you more likely to call for an Uber or Lyft, or a cab Last Friday, Lyft — the ride-sharing company, went public as its stocks (股票) started trading on the market. Lyft has become the first big initial public offering of the “gig economy” age. While the company is not making profits yet, it is changing the meaning of work. What is gig economy and what makes it so appealing
Gig works are independent contracts (合同) or part-time jobs such as Uber. In the gig economy, companies hire independent contractors instead of full-time employees. This is different from traditional companies where full-time workers hold a lifetime career. In the past, only small companies hired contractors, while today, employers like Amazon and Google rely on temporary workforce. These companies save costs as they are not legally required to provide healthcare benefits, retirement savings or paid time off to gig workers.
Gig work appeals to different people for different reasons. For some, it affords flexible timings and for otliers who are looking for full-time jobs, it provides a source of income to support themselves. Some people work a full-time job and supplement (补充) their salary with gig jobs such as driving for Uber or Lyft.
Joining the gig economy may be simple, but maintaining a steady career is easier said than done. Gig work comes with unsteady pay and workloads. You're your own boss. It sounds fun, but when you have no self-control and an unsteady job, you might splurge all your money the first week and live on bread pieces for the rest of the month! Besides a strong sense of responsibility, gig workers have to stay up to date to get companies to hire them.
Despite the challenges gig workers face, nearly 60 million Americans are part of this workforce. As this number grows, we have to see how society and companies adapt to this new world of work!
28．What can be learnt about Lyft from the passage
A．It has built up a large fortune.
B．It marks the arrival of gig economy age.
C．It employs a fixed number of full-time workers.
D．It appeals to people as a means of public transport.
29．Who are most likely to become gig workers
A．People seeking for a steady income. B．Those desperate to get paid vacations.
C．People in need of flexible working hours. D．Those concerned about retirement accounts.
30．What does the underlined word “splurge” in paragraph 4 mean
A．Spend money freely. B．Deposit money automatically.
C．Earn money quickly. D．Allocate money randomly.
31．What is the message mainly conveyed in the passage
A．Gig workers have to face some potential challenges.
B．Gig workers have to possess some much-needed qualities.
C．The appearance of gig companies will solve the job problems.
D．People should adjust to new work trends with the rise of gig companies.
D
Money doesn’t grow on trees but gold does. Scientists in Western Australia claim to have made a new discovery—they have found gold in the leaves and branches of trees. The researchers believe that the trees suck up the gold from deep underground, over 30 metres down. The discovery has been described as the first of its kind in the world.
Australian gold exploration companies are pleased because it will make finding gold cheaper. Rather than drilling deep holes to find gold, they will be able to examine tree leaves and branches. The trees show what is happening under the earth’s surface. There is only a tiny amount of gold in the leaves. It would take 500 trees to make one gold ring. The gold is found using a special X-ray machine and a powerful microscope, which scan the leaves and branches.
The claim is that this is the first time that gold particles have been found in living material. However, this might not be true. Ancient Chinese wisdom understood the connection between plants and the precious stones and minerals underneath them. They used plant life to find minerals — and that was thousands of years ago. In the Zhou Dynasty, it was written in a book that a certain plant grew only near deposits (矿床) of gold. Over the next 2,000 years, Chinese people wrote about different plants and how they grew, showing where minerals and precious stones such as jade, copper, lead, silver and gold were Even more importantly, in the 1000s, Su Song described how Portulaca plants could yield mercury if crushed, dried and allowed to decay (腐烂). That was certainly the first time ever that a metal was obtained from a plant.
The Previous Secrets of the Realm of the King of Xin, written during the Ming Dynasty, described how different metals were observed and extracted (提炼) from certain plants. This knowledge was unknown in the rest of the world until about 1600, when a British man realised that oak trees grew larger and greener where there was alum in the ground. Maybe ancient Chinese knowledge has more to teach modern scientists.
32．According to Australian scientists, where can gold be probably found
A．In the roots of trees. B．In the leaves of trees.
C．In the trees everywhere. D．In the underground near trees.
33．How can we tell whether there is gold or not
A．By drilling deep holes in the trees.
B．By cutting the leaves of trees into pieces.
C．By examining the surface of the ground under the trees.
D．By scanning the leaves and branches using a special microscope.
34．Who first found the link between plants and minerals
A．Australian scientists. B．Su Song.
C．Ancient Chinese people. D．A British man.
35．The author develops Paragraph 4 mainly by ________.
A．using examples B．making comparisons
C．listing figures D．analyzing effects
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。
Every family goes through its ups and downs. Most often, the root cause of this situation is the lack of communication. 36 .
Lack of patience can be one of the biggest factors. If people are not patient with their parents or children or other members, the levels of closeness will be weakened. And it can be quite difficult for a bad-tempered child, or even a bad-tempered parent to deal with the problems.
Lack of time for family members is always a reason leading to the problems. 37 . In order to survive, everyone must focus all their attention on the work, so they do not have enough time to have a good talk with others.
Lack of discipline is the worst problem in terms of children. 38 . It is known that most parents want to control the children, even their children get older, which can lead to a constantly disharmonious atmosphere within the family.
If the solutions to the problems are OK, all these problems can be easily solved. If lack of patience is one of the problems, obviously the solution is to develop the virtue of patience. You’d better hear out what the children have to say on a certain matter, or even consult them about their significant ideas. 39 .
It would be natural to see childish behavior of the younger members of a family but it is up to the elders to control the atmosphere and keep it calm. 40 .
The above are some of the most common problems that most families face. So it is important to maintain the best relations with your family, because family is the strongest support system for you.
A．Everyone has a say in each family meeting
B．By doing this, you can avoid a coming quarrel
C．A badly behaved child can ruin the peace of a family
D．the elder should talk things out instead of keeping silent
E．Don’t discuss the family problems when you’re still feeling upset
F．With the development of society, all people face fierce challenge and competition
G．There are some common factors that lead to communication problems in the family
