Popular Destinations in China
Dali in Yunnan Province
With the premiere of a TV play earlier last year, Dali Bai Autonomous Prefecture in southwest China’s Yunnan Province appeared as a very popular tourism destination. The play was filmed in Dali, showing some main places such as Dali Ancient Town, Shaxi Ancient Town and Xizhou Town. During the Spring Festival holiday, Dali received several million tourists, marking a remarkable increase compared to the previous year.
Jiangmen in Guangdong Province
Thanks to the success of a hit show, Jiangmen in Guangdong Province became a famous tourism destination last year. As the hometown for many overseas Chinese, the city is well-known for its historical and cultural streets, featuring South Asian architecture and wide varieties of snacks, which attract tourists and TV fans. It recorded more than three million trips, and the trips created several billion yuan of tourism income for the city.
Qingdao in Shandong Province
One of the most popular films during last year’s Spring Festival was a science fiction film about the Earth. Interestingly, you may not know that 90 percent of the film was actually shot in Qingdao City of East China’s Shandong Province. For science fiction fans or film lovers, visiting Qingdao to explore the filming places has become popular.
A comedy film during last year’s Spring Festival shot in the Taiyuan Ancient County in Shanxi has caused a stir. The film was inspired by a famous poem and general in the Southern Song Dynasty (1127 — 1279). From January 21 to January 31, the county saw a flood of over 400,000 tourists, a great rise compared to about 180,000 visitors during the last Spring Festival holiday.

As a young girl growing up in France, Sarah Toumi dreamed of becoming a leader who could make the world a better place. Her passion to help others was awakened when, from the age of nine, she accompanied her Tunisian father to his birthplace in the east of the country during holidays. There she organized homework clubs and activities for children.
Toumi witnessed first-hand the destructive effect of desertification. “Within 10 years rich farmers became worse off, and in 10 years from now they will be poor. I wanted to stop the Sahara Desert in its tracks.” A decrease in average rainfall and an increase in the severity of droughts have led to an estimated 75 percent of Tunisia’s agricultural lands being threatened by desertification.
Toumi recognized that farming practices needed to change. She is confident that small land areas can bring large returns if farmers are able to adapt by planting sustainable crops, using new technologies for water treatment and focusing on natural products and fertilizers rather than chemicals.
In 2012, Toumi continued her dream to fight the desert. She moved to Tunisia, and set up a programme named Acacias for All to put her sustainable farming philosophy into action. “I want to show young people in rural areas that they can create opportunities where they are. Nobody is better able to understand the impact of desertification and climate change than somebody who is living with no access to water.”
By September 2016, more than 130, 000 acacia trees had been planted on 20 pilot farms, with farmers recording a 60 percent survival rate. Toumi estimates that some 3 million acacia trees are needed to protect Tunisia’s farmland. She expects to plant l million trees by 2028. In the next couple of years, Toumi hopes to extend the programme to Algeria and Morocco.
24. How did Toumi’s holiday trips to Tunisia influence her
A. They fired her enthusiasm for helping others.
B. They helped her better understand her father.
C. They made her decide to leave the country.
D. They destroyed her dream of being a teacher.
25. What is the main cause of the desertification of Tunisia’s farmland
A. Cold weather. B. Soil pollution. C. Low rainfall. D. Forest damage.
26.. Why did Toumi set up Acacias for All in Tunisia
A. To create job opportunities for young people.
B. To promote the protection of their farmland.
C. To persuade the farmers not to use fertilizers.
D. To help the children obtain a basic education.
27. Which of the following can be the best title to the text
A. Saving Water in Africa B. Fighting Poverty in North Africa
C. Holding back the Sahara D. Planting Trees in Tunisia
C
Trying to imagine fat, white sheep jumping one by one over a fence, is a well-known treatment for sleeplessness. I’ve often wondered just who came up with such a silly suggestion. If the idea is to bore you to sleep, why not count backward And who decided on sheep Why not rabbits, horses, frogs or kangaroos And does it really help you fall asleep Search online, and you’ll soon find stories about a study on battling insomnia that put the concept to the test.
“In reality, that wasn’t the point of the research,” said senior author Allison Harvey, who conducted the research. Their study wasn’t about counting sheep; it was just about using imagery to fight sleeplessness. In her research 50 people were divided into three groups. The first had no instructions on how to fall asleep, while members of the second were told to distract (分心) themselves from thoughts, worries and concerns in any way they wanted. The third group was instructed to perform an interesting and engaging imagery task, such as creating or remembering a waterfall, a holiday or a summer afternoon in the sun.
Those who used imagery reported falling asleep much faster than either of the other two groups, and they rated their thoughts, worries and concerns to be less uncomfortable and painful than people in the distraction or no instruction group.
As it happened, two of the study participants in the distraction group did count sheep as a way to fall asleep “and somehow people accepted that, I guess because they thought it was fun,” Harvey said.
While she didn’t actually study counting sheep as a way of overcoming sleeplessness and isn’t aware of any other studies to do so, Harvey does have an opinion based on her years as a sleep specialist.
“Something as ordinary as counting sheep usually does not do the trick,” she said. “As everyone is different and not one option is going to help every single time, we have worked out a menu of options with people.”
28. What does the underlined word “insomnia” in paragraph 1 mean
A. Sleeplessness. B. Illness. C. Distraction. D. Laziness.
29. What can be learned about Allison Harvey’s research
A. Each group consisted of 50 participants.
B. The distraction group reported the most benefits.
C. Its initial aim was to test the effectiveness of imagery.
D. Every participant was given some instructions.
30. What does Allison Harvey think of counting sheep for sleep
A. Creative. B. Questionable. C. Practical. D. Traditional.
31. What will the text continue to talk about probably
A. Alternative methods for falling asleep.
B. Various strategies to improve people’s health.
C. Historical origins of counting sheep for sleep.
D. Scientific theories behind counting sheep for sleep.
D
Since the start of the industrial revolution, there have been threats that new machines — from mechanized looms (织布机) to microchips would take human jobs.
A March report from Goldman Sachs estimated that AI capable of content generation could do a quarter of all the work currently done by humans. Across the European Union and the US, the report further notes, 300 million jobs could be lost to automation.
Thankfully, it’s not all bad news. The experts issue their warnings with a relief: there are still things AI isn’t capable of — tasks that involve distinctly human qualities, like emotional intelligence and outside-the-box thinking.
“I think there are generally three categories that will remain unaffected in the coming future.” says Martin Ford, a related author. “The first would be jobs that are genuinely creative: you’re not engaged in repetitive work or just rearranging things, but you’re genuinely coming up with new ideas and building something new.”
That doesn’t necessarily mean all jobs that are considered “creative” are safe. In fact, things like graphic design and visual art-related roles may be among the first to go. Basic algorithms can direct a robot to analyze millions of images, allowing AI to rapidly acquire a sense of beauty. “But there’s some security in other kinds of creativity, in science, and medicine and law people whose job is coming up with a new legal strategy or business strategy.” says Ford.
“The second category,” he continues, “is jobs that require complicated interpersonal relationships.” He points to nurses, business consultants and investigative journalists. “These are jobs to interact in the kinds of ways that really build relationships.” he says.
“The third safe zone is jobs that really require lots of mobility and problem-solving ability in unpredictable environments.” says Ford. Many trade jobs — think electricians, plumbers, engineers and where you need a very deep understanding of people. I think it’ll be a long time before AI has the ability the like — fall under this umbrella. “These are the kinds of jobs where you’re dealing with a new situation all the time.” he adds.
In short, seeking roles in dynamic, shifting environments that include unpredictable tasks is a good way to avoid job loss to AI, at least, for a while.
32. What has been a historical concern regarding new machines
A. The need for increased human skills.
B. The possibility of human losing jobs.
C. The fear of increased automation costs.
D. The potential for machine malfunctions.
33. What can we know from the March report
A. AI is not capable of content generation.
B. AI can imitate distinctly human qualities.
C. AI poses no threat to human employment.
D. AI has no outside-the-box thinking abilities.
34. Which of the following statement will Martin Ford disagree with
A. All creative jobs are not safe from AI.
B. Graphic designers tend to be affected.
C. Problem-solving jobs will remain unaffected.
D. Jobs focusing on repetitive tasks will still have a place.
35. What is the author’s attitude towards the potential job loss caused by AI
A. Optimistic. B. Pessimistic.
C. Indifferent. D. Uncertain.

The Changing Landscape of the Music Business
The music industry is in the process of a great change. In the past decades, artists have made money through physical sales of records, CDs, and cassettes. While in recent years, downloading songs from services such as Amazon or iTunes has become the most common way for people to purchase music, and the whole idea of buying music to own may be falling. To take its place are Internet apps that stream music directly to listeners on their smartphones , tablets, or computers. 36 While this is great for fans, who now have access to millions of songs at the flick of a touchscreen, it has shattered(打破) the traditional model of how an artist manages his or her career.
With music lovers increasingly moving away from making one-time purchases towards an all-you-can-listen-to service, what is a hard-working artist to do The main problem facing many musicians is that payments-per-stream of a song are much lower than what an artist would receive from a download. 37 In November of 2014, award-winning musician Taylor Swift pulled her entire music catalog from Spotify, a popular streaming app, claiming that their business model suggests that music does not hold much worth.
38 They claim that it offers smaller artists a chance for their music to get heard by a wider audience. Brian Message, manager of the band Radiohead, has come out in support of streaming services. He sees them as a way for musicians and fans to interact.
Regardless of what artists may think about this change in the music industry, there’s no arguing that they need to adapt in order to make money. 39
Corporate sponsorship can be a risky option for musicians. A band can make much money by agreeing to promote a product or license its music for use in advertisements, but there are many ways that this can backfire. When bands work with businesses, they may lose the image they have worked to create. 40 Artists must develop an image that appeals to their fans in order to remain unique and authentic, or they risk striking .the wrong chord, which could leave them struggling to sustain careers in this new business landscape.
A. Others have welcomed the idea of streaming music.
B. However, those forms of media are quickly fading away.
C. Some big-name artists have called attention to the issue.
D. The rules could be different for smaller bands just starting out.
E. Maintaining a fine image while working on a career is certainly tricky.
F. One major shift is the growth in partnership between artists and businesses.
G. These apps are available either as free versions or as monthly subscription services.

When I was in middle school, my family moved to Seattle, where my parents started their new business — a small grocery store downstairs my house. As a girl of shy and reserved nature, I had to take a fresh start to fit into the city life.
One sunny day, my school announced an exciting event, a talent show for the local food bank. Students were encouraged to showcase their unique talents in front of the public in the city hall on National Day. A buzz of excitement filled the school as everyone began preparing for the big day. Deep down, I felt a spark of curiosity and a desire to participate. However, my self-doubt held me back, “I don’t have any special skills to share.”
Days turned into weeks, and the talent show drew closer. I couldn’t shake the upsetting feeling until one day Emma, one of the most popular girls in my class, came to me while I was helping in the grocery store after class. “How about singing together in the talent show ” She grinned (笑), “I heard you singing a tune, along the way back home. I can’t help following you here.” Gosh, I couldn’t believe my ears. Emma, with personality and popularity, acknowledged my little talent. Since Emma had the world’s prettiest voice, I felt like being favoured by fortune.
“You two The talent show for the food bank ” My mum bent towards us and her face lit up. “A big occasion.” Then a light bulb seemed to go in her head. “Why not practise right now upstairs I bet you’ll be a perfect match.” Winking at us, she seemed to know we were thinking alike.
Emma and I embarked on rehearsing (排练) almost every single day after school. We brainstormed, exchanged ideas and rehearsed the scene. As the days rolled by, I was feeling pretty good about our act. But the day before the performance, Emma called that she had an acute(十分严重的)stomachache and was not in any shape to perform.

3. 参考范文
I was completely shocked by the news. Gloomy and desperate, I sat silently in the room for what seemed like ages, unsure of what to do next. Then I started to pace up and down like a caged animal, debating with myself whether or not to go on stage alone. “How can this be possible ” I thought to myself. Fear and anxiety coursed through my veins, and it seemed that all our hard work was in vain. But then the thought of the support and encouragement from Emma and my mom came flooding back to me. It was at the moment that I realized that I couldn’t let self-doubt hold me back. Filled with determination, I resolved to proceed with the performance by myself. Filled with great anticipation, I’m waiting for the crucial moment to come.
Finally came the big moment. As I stepped onto the stage, I could feel my heart thumping wildly in my chest. Glancing around the hall, I took a deep breath and began to sing. Surprisingly, all my worries suddenly gave way to a flush of confidence. I was completely immersed in the joy of performing and the audience was spellbound by the passion in my voice. When I finished my song, the whole hall burst into applause. Tears of joy welled up in my eyes as Emma presented a big bunch of flowers to me, and my mum stood near, winking at us. From that day forward, I learned that by overcoming fears and self-doubts, we can make a difference.

22..细节理解题。根据Jiangmen in Guangdong Province部分中“As the hometown for many overseas Chinese, the city is well-known for its historical and cultural streets, featuring South Asian architecture and wide varieties of snacks, which attract tourists and TV fans. (作为许多海外华人的故乡,这座城市以其历史和文化街道而闻名,以南亚建筑和各种小吃为特色,吸引了游客和电视迷)”可知,江门不同于其他三个目的地,因为它是许多海外华人的故乡。故选D项。

【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了Sarah Toumi的成长经历及其为对抗沙漠化、保护突尼斯农田所做出的努力,包括成立Acacias for All项目,种植树木以维护生态平衡,同时也提及了她的个人愿景和项目的发展影响。
24.推理判断题。根据文章第一段“As a young girl growing up in France, Sarah Toumi dreamed of becoming a leader who could make the world a better place. Her passion to help others was awakened when, from the age of nine, she accompanied her Tunisian father to his birthplace in the east of the country during holidays. There she organized homework clubs and activities for children. (作为一个在法国长大的年轻女孩,Sarah Toumi梦想成为一名能够让世界变得更美好的领导者。从九岁起,她就在假期陪伴Tunisian父亲前往他在该国东部的出生地,这唤醒了她帮助他人的热情。在那里,她为孩子们组织了家庭作业俱乐部和活动。)”可知,Toumi在Tunisian的假期旅行激发了她帮助他人的热情。故选A。
25.细节理解题。根据文章第二段中的“A decrease in average rainfall and an increase in the severity of droughts have led to an estimated 75 percent of Tunisia’s agricultural lands being threatened by desertification. (平均降雨量的减少和干旱严重程度的增加导致突尼斯大约75%的农业用地受到荒漠化的威胁。)”可知,导致突尼斯农田沙漠化的主因是降水量减少。故选C。
26.推理判断题。根据文章第四段“In 2012, Toumi continued her dream to fight the desert. She moved to Tunisia, and set up a programme named Acacias for All to put her sustainable farming philosophy into action. “I want to show young people in rural areas that they can create opportunities where they are. Nobody is better able to understand the impact of desertification and climate change than somebody who is living with no access to water.” (2012年,Toumi继续她与沙漠作战的梦想。她搬到了突尼斯,建立了一个名为“Acacias for All”的项目,将她的可持续农业理念付诸行动。“我想向农村地区的年轻人展示,他们可以在自己所在的地方创造机会。没有人比那些生活在没有水的地方的人更能理解荒漠化和气候变化的影响。”)”和第五段中“Toumi estimates that some 3 million acacia trees are needed to protect Tunisia’s farmland. (Toumi估计需要大约300万棵金合欢树来保护Tunisia的农田。)”可知,Toumi建立Acacias for All的目的是为了推广保护他们农田的行动。故选B。
27.主旨大意题。通读全文,尤其是由文章第二段“Toumi witnessed first-hand the destructive effect of desertification (沙漠化). “Within 10 years rich farmers became worse off, and in 10 years from now they will be poor. I wanted to stop the Sahara Desert in its tracks.” A decrease in average rainfall and an increase in the severity of droughts have led to an estimated 75 percent of Tunisia’s agricultural lands being threatened by desertification. (图米亲眼目睹了沙漠化的破坏性影响。“在10年内,富裕的农民变得更穷,再过10年,他们将变穷。我想阻止撒哈拉沙漠的发展。”平均降雨量的减少和干旱严重程度的增加导致突尼斯大约75%的农业用地受到荒漠化的威胁。)”可知,文章主要讲述了Sarah Toumi为阻止沙漠化进程所做的努力,包括改变农业实践、种植金合欢树等,旨在保护突尼斯的农田免受沙漠化威胁。因此,“Holding back the Sahara (阻挡Sahara)”最能概括文章主题。故选C。

32.细节理解题。根据第一段“Since the start of the industrial revolution, there have been threats that new machines — from mechanized looms (织布机) to microchips would take human jobs.(自从工业革命开始以来,新机器——从机械化织布机到微芯片——就一直威胁着人类的工作。)”可知,对于新机器的传统担忧是人类失去工作的可能性。故选B。
33.细节理解题。根据第三段第二句“The experts issue their warnings with a relief: there are still things AI isn’t capable of — tasks that involve distinctly human qualities, like emotional intelligence and outside-the-box thinking.(专家们在发出警告时也给出了安慰:人工智能仍有一些事情是无法胜任的——那些涉及明显人类品质的任务,比如情商和创新思维。)”可知,人工智能没有创新思维。故选D。
34.推理判断题。根据第四段第二句“The first would be jobs that are genuinely creative: you’re not engaged in repetitive work or just rearranging things, but you’re genuinely coming up with new ideas and building something new.(第一种是真正具有创造性的工作:你不是在从事重复性的工作,也不是在重新安排东西,而是在真正地提出新想法,创造新东西。)”可知,马丁·福特会不认同“专注于重复性任务的工作仍将有一席之地”的观点。故选D。
35.推理判断题。根据最后一段“In short, seeking roles in dynamic, shifting environments that include unpredictable tasks is a good way to avoid job loss to AI, at least, for a while.(简而言之,在包括不可预测任务在内的动态、不断变化的环境中寻找职位,是避免被人工智能抢走工作的好方法,至少在一段时间内是这样。)”可知,作者对人工智能可能造成的失业持乐观态度。故选A。

39.根据上文“Regardless of what artists may think about this change in the music industry, there’s no arguing that they need to adapt in order to make money.(不管艺术家们对音乐行业的这种变化有什么看法,毫无疑问,为了赚钱,他们需要适应。)”以及下文“Corporate sponsorship can be a risky option for musicians.(对音乐家来说,企业赞助可能是一个冒险的选择。)”可知,这个变化与音乐家和企业赞助有关系。F选项“One major shift is the growth in partnership between artists and businesses.”(一个主要的变化是艺术家和企业之间的合作关系的增长。)符合题意,故选F项。
