When I was a teenager growing up in Russia, I felt studying very boring. I wanted to leave school and have my own life. There were only two ways for me to do this-working in the toy factory in my town, or getting married. I chose the first one. I was nervous when I told my father that I wanted to leave school. I thought he would say, “No! You are going to college.” Instead, he took me by surprise when he said, “OK. We'll go to the toy factory.”
Two days later, he took me to the factory. I had a very romantic idea of working in a factory. I had imagined everyone to be friendly working together and having fun. I even imagined there would be music and singing. I guess I had watched too many movies as a teenager.
When we arrived at the factory gates, my father spoke to the guard and one minute later we went inside. My father said, “Take your time. Look around. ” I walked around the factory, looking at the buildings, the workers, and listening to the noise. It was terrible. I ran back to my father and said, “I want to go home. ”
He asked me, “What do you think of the factory ”
“It's terrible, ”I replied.
“And you have another choice, but I think getting married is even worse!” he said.
I went back to school the next day. From then on, I studied as hard as I could. Finally I got into a good college. I enjoyed studying English so I decided to major in languages at college. Thanks to my father and our trip to the factory, I now work at the United Nations and my father is very proud of me. I married a very good man and my life is much better than it would have been working in the factory!
1. The writer lived in __________ when she was a teenager.

Brooke wanted a dollhouse and some sugar cookies. So the 6-year-old asked Alexa to get them. Alexa wasn't her mom or babysitter. It was a voice-activated(声控的) home assistant powered by artificial intelligence(AI). Alexa comes with the Amazon Echo device(回波装置). And it made Brooke's wishes come true. After being reported on TV, Alexa devices in many listeners' homes woke up and tried to order dollhouses!
Alexa isn't the only AI willing to order up treats for you. Apple Homepod has Siri, Google Home has its Assistant, and the upcoming Galaxy Home device will have Bixby. People who own these devices use them mainly for listening to music, checking the weather, and setting timers. According to a report from The Information, people don't often do voice shopping. They do it mainly to order simple things like paper towels. But many experts predict a boom(繁荣) in voice shopping in the near future.
Convenience is the main benefit of voice shopping. You can shout out an order as soon as you think of it, even if you're cooking or driving. Besides, people who are unable to use a keyboard or mouse can shop without assistance.
But voice shopping has its downsides. Unwanted things aren’t the biggest problem. It's usually very easy to cancel an order or return items. The surprising thing is that these assistants are always listening. They have to be able to respond when you want them. So they listen for ''Alexa'' or ''OK Google'' or another command. When they hear it, they start recording the conversation. Some have worried about what happens to these recordings. Should companies be allowed to use them to learn about people's shopping habits What if someone hacks(非法侵入) the device What if someone hacks smart TVs to turn them into spies that listen all the time
5. What is Alexa
A. A TV reporter. B. A friend of Brooke.
C. A voice-activated device. D. A cookie maker.
6. What can you learn from paragraph2
A. Alexa is the best AI device.
B. People buy various things through voice shopping.
C. People use Bixby mainly for listening to music.
D. Voice shopping may have a bright future.
7. What is the author's attitude towards Alexa devices
A. Optimistic. B. Doubtful.
C. Objective. D. Negative.
8. What's the best title of the text
A. How did Brooke' wishes come true B. The voice-activated home assistant-Alexa
C. How can we start voice shopping D. What convenience do Alexa devices bring
C
For most of my adult life, I’ve felt slightly ashamed —not of something I’ve done, but of something I haven’t. Although I’m an independent person who has been to numerous countries, I’ve never gone on an overseas holiday alone. I’ve traveled with my parents, partners, kids and other families. I’ve travelled with my pet and joined tours where I knew no one but came out with lifelong friends.
But for a while, my failure to travel alone felt like a mistake. Solo travel is celebrated. I’ve seen a thousand pieces written by adventurous women who claim to have found themselves by crossing countries alone. Traveling solo makes you capable, they say. It pushes you out of your comfort zone. Every woman should travel alone at least once in her life!
And yet, I’ve never had an urge to do it. For one thing, I need a lot of people contact. A single day without meaningful conversation can leave me feeling depressed. Proper, engaging conversation is difficult when traveling alone. Even if you’re good at chatting with strangers, it isn’t always possible. I don’t want to worry about being alone on my travels. I want support and company during my adventures. I used to see this desire to be with others as some sort of flaw, but now I see it as a valid choice.
Traveling solo builds resilience. But so does life. I am a single parent raising three children while trying to juggle a career. I make endless decisions alone and deal with crises alone. I manage loneliness and fear. I don’t need to travel alone to build resilience. I have resilience in spades, I’m sure travelling overseas would push me further out of comfort zone. But you know what else pushed me out of my comfort zone Being single in a society that values marriage. Earning a living in a difficult industry. Dating men I’ve met on an app. My life is effortful enough. I don’t need my travels to be effortful too.
Travel is incredibly valuable, no matter what your stage of life. It teaches you how diverse the world is and how to appreciate your culture in relation to another. It stretches your mind and gives you a new viewpoint.
And you don’t need a solo journey to become an independent woman. I assure you that life will get you there in the end.
9. What does the author feel a bit ashamed of
A. Her lack of independence. B. Her failure to travel overseas.
C. Not being adventurous enough. D. Not having travelled on her own abroad
10. Why is solo travel applauded by adventurous women
A. It is both relaxing and empowering. B. They can better appreciate different cultures.
C. They get to know themselves better. D. It forces them to face their deepest fear.
11. What does the author mean by saying “I have resilience in spades” in paragraph 4
A. She has had enough of resilience.
B. She doesn’t want to travel solo with spades.
C. She doesn’t need solo traveling to build character.
D. She has gone through many difficulties in life to have great resilience.
12. Which of the following can be the best title for the text
A. Walking out of comfort zone B. Solo travel is unnecessary
C. Life is travelling solo D. Being an independent woman
D

Brooke wanted a dollhouse and some sugar cookies. So the 6-year-old asked Alexa to get them. Alexa wasn't her mom or babysitter. It was a voice-activated(声控的) home assistant powered by artificial intelligence(AI). Alexa comes with the Amazon Echo device(回波装置). And it made Brooke's wishes come true. After being reported on TV, Alexa devices in many listeners' homes woke up and tried to order dollhouses!
Alexa isn't the only AI willing to order up treats for you. Apple Homepod has Siri, Google Home has its Assistant, and the upcoming Galaxy Home device will have Bixby. People who own these devices use them mainly for listening to music, checking the weather, and setting timers. According to a report from The Information, people don't often do voice shopping. They do it mainly to order simple things like paper towels. But many experts predict a boom(繁荣) in voice shopping in the near future.
Convenience is the main benefit of voice shopping. You can shout out an order as soon as you think of it, even if you're cooking or driving. Besides, people who are unable to use a keyboard or mouse can shop without assistance.
But voice shopping has its downsides. Unwanted things aren’t the biggest problem. It's usually very easy to cancel an order or return items. The surprising thing is that these assistants are always listening. They have to be able to respond when you want them. So they listen for ''Alexa'' or ''OK Google'' or another command. When they hear it, they start recording the conversation. Some have worried about what happens to these recordings. Should companies be allowed to use them to learn about people's shopping habits What if someone hacks(非法侵入) the device What if someone hacks smart TVs to turn them into spies that listen all the time

A. A TV reporter. B. A friend of Brooke.

For most of my adult life, I’ve felt slightly ashamed —not of something I’ve done, but of something I haven’t. Although I’m an independent person who has been to numerous countries, I’ve never gone on an overseas holiday alone. I’ve traveled with my parents, partners, kids and other families. I’ve travelled with my pet and joined tours where I knew no one but came out with lifelong friends.
But for a while, my failure to travel alone felt like a mistake. Solo travel is celebrated. I’ve seen a thousand pieces written by adventurous women who claim to have found themselves by crossing countries alone. Traveling solo makes you capable, they say. It pushes you out of your comfort zone. Every woman should travel alone at least once in her life!
And yet, I’ve never had an urge to do it. For one thing, I need a lot of people contact. A single day without meaningful conversation can leave me feeling depressed. Proper, engaging conversation is difficult when traveling alone. Even if you’re good at chatting with strangers, it isn’t always possible. I don’t want to worry about being alone on my travels. I want support and company during my adventures. I used to see this desire to be with others as some sort of flaw, but now I see it as a valid choice.
Traveling solo builds resilience. But so does life. I am a single parent raising three children while trying to juggle a career. I make endless decisions alone and deal with crises alone. I manage loneliness and fear. I don’t need to travel alone to build resilience. I have resilience in spades, I’m sure travelling overseas would push me further out of comfort zone. But you know what else pushed me out of my comfort zone Being single in a society that values marriage. Earning a living in a difficult industry. Dating men I’ve met on an app. My life is effortful enough. I don’t need my travels to be effortful too.
Travel is incredibly valuable, no matter what your stage of life. It teaches you how diverse the world is and how to appreciate your culture in relation to another. It stretches your mind and gives you a new viewpoint.
And you don’t need a solo journey to become an independent woman. I assure you that life will get you there in the end.
9. What does the author feel a bit ashamed of
A. Her lack of independence. B. Her failure to travel overseas.
C. Not being adventurous enough. D. Not having travelled on her own abroad
10. Why is solo travel applauded by adventurous women
A. It is both relaxing and empowering. B. They can better appreciate different cultures.
C. They get to know themselves better. D. It forces them to face their deepest fear.
11. What does the author mean by saying “I have resilience in spades” in paragraph 4
A. She has had enough of resilience.
B. She doesn’t want to travel solo with spades.
C. She doesn’t need solo traveling to build character.
D. She has gone through many difficulties in life to have great resilience.
12. Which of the following can be the best title for the text
A. Walking out of comfort zone B. Solo travel is unnecessary
C. Life is travelling solo D. Being an independent woman
【答案】9. D 10. C 11. D 12. B
【解析】

【9题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段中“For most of my adult life, I’ve felt sightly ashamed —not of something I’ve done, but of something I haven’t. Although I’m an independent person who has been to numerous countries, I’ve never gone on an overseas holiday alone.(在我成年后的大部分时间里,我都为我没有做过的事而感到羞愧。虽然我是一个独立的人,去过很多国家,但我从来没有一个人出国度假)”可知,作者感到有点羞愧的是没有独自出国旅行。故选 D。
【10题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中“Solo travel is celebrated. I’ve seen a thousand pieces written by adventurous women who claim to have found themselves by crossing countries alone.(独自旅行很受欢迎。我看过上千篇冒险的女性写的文章,她们声称自己通过独自穿越国家找到了自我)”可知,独自旅行受到喜欢冒险的女性的欢迎因为她们更好地了解自己。故选C。
【11题详解】
句意猜测题。根据画线部分上文“I am a single parent raising three children while trying to juggle a career. I make endless decisions alone and deal with crises alone. I manage loneliness and fear. I don’t need to travel alone to build resilience.”可知,作者是一个抚养三个孩子的单亲妈妈,同时还要努力兼顾事业。总是一个人做决定,一个人处理危机,作者能控制孤独和恐惧,所以不需要独自旅行来培养韧性,因为她经历了生活中的许多困难,才有了很大的韧性。故画线部分意思是“她经历了生活中的许多困难,才有了很大的韧性”。故选D。
【12题详解】
主旨大意题。根据最后一段“And you don’t need a solo journey to become an independent woman. I assure you that life will get you there in the end.(要成为一个独立的女人,你不需要一个人的旅程。我向你保证,生活最终会把你带到那里)”结合文章说明了作者从自身经历出发,论述了对独自旅行的看法,独自旅行能增强韧性,但作者因为经历过许多困难,已经有韧性了,所以作者认为要成为一个独立的女人,你不需要独自旅程。故B选项“没有必要独自旅行”最适合作文章标题。故选B。

【43题详解】
考查形容词。句意:这是自从1949年国家统计局开始记录这些信息以来的最低水平。low兼具名词和形容词词性,前面有the修饰,应用形容词low的最高级形式,the lowest作表语,表示“最低水平”,相当于名词。故填lowest。
【44题详解】
考查时态和主谓一致。句意:在过去的几年里,抚养一个孩子的高昂费用已经导致中国官员对私人家教行业进行了限制。由时间状语“in the last few years”可知,应用现在完成时,主语是名词复数costs,助动词用have。故填have caused。
【45题详解】
考查不定冠词。句意:一些城市还给夫妻钱来再养第二或第三个孩子。分析句子意思可知,序数词前用不定冠词,表示“再一,又一”。故填a。

【答案】Dear Xiao Wang,
I have received and read your letter, in which you mentioned that you wanted to lose weight by dieting.
It is only natural that young girls at your age hope to look beautiful. However, in my opinion, health is more important than beauty. For a student, studying is the first thing to consider while appearance is the second. So do not let others’ opinions affect your normal life. However, if you do want to lose weight, it is a good idea to do it by getting more exercise and changing your unhealthy eating habits. The most important thing is that you keep a healthy state of mind, as it will help with your studies, and will also help you overcome difficulties in dieting.

“I beg your pardon ”said the pharmacist. “His name is Jack and he has something very bad growing inside his body and my Daddy says only a miracle can save him now. So how much does a miracle cost ”
“We don't sell miracles here, little girl .I'm sorry but I can't help you, ” the pharmacist said. “Listen, I have money to pay for it.” And with these words, Mich poured out all the coins from her pockets.
