Passage One
Questions I to 5 are based on the following passage:
A U.N. report says water is in demand around the world as temperatures on Earth’s surface rise and demand grows along with populations. The report was released this week at the World Water Forum in Brasilia. The conference has been described as the world’s largest water-related event.
Federal District Governor Rodrigo Rollemberg spoke at a panel discussion on Tuesday at the forum. He described water shortages as a worldwide problem. “Here in Brasilia, it is no different,” he added.
The public water supply has less water because of low rainfall as well as fast and disorderly growth in Brasilia, which is part of the Federal District, Rollemberg said. In January 2016, after three years of little rain, district officials began limiting how much water people could use. The governments of the Federal District and the nearby state of Goias also gave $166 million to develop water infrastructure（基礎設施）.
Demand around the world is expected to increase by nearly one-third by 2050. By then, 5 billion people could be left with poor access to water, the U.N. warned in its 2018 World Water Development Report. To avoid such a crisis, U.N. officials called for “nature-based solutions” that use or copy natural processes that should be used to increase water availability. They said solutions could include changing farming methods so fields keep more moisture and nutrients, collecting rainwater, and protecting wetlands. The officials also proposed reestablishing floodplains and said that plants could be grown on housetops. Such proposals will become more important as water industries grow.

B. They limited water consumption
C. They invested in artificial rainmaking
D. They suggested"nature-based solutions”
4. What is not a"nature-based solution"?
A. Gathering rainwater
B, Preserving wetlands
C. Sustaining water in soil

Passage Two
Questions 6 to 10 are based on the following passage:
The Queen has only given one interview while a sovereign(君主). Her true personality remains elusive to the public. However, one thing is clear: Queen Elizabeth is an introvert.Introverts prefer quiet environments and feel energized from spending time alone or with people they know well. They aren’t necessarily shy, but they do tend to be more reserved and guarded with strangers. Fellow introverts will appreciate how draining an average day for Her Majesty must be.
Fortunately, the Queen has some tricks to make public engagements easier. Just like us commoners rely on friends to save us from awkward situations or boring conversations, she subtly signals to her staff when she wants an intervention(介入）. If she places her handbag on the table, it indicates that she wants the event to end in the next five minutes. For more urgent situations, putting her bag on the floor shows that she wants her lady-in-waiting to rescue her immediately.
Most comfortable in the countryside, the Queen has a well-known passion for horses and dogs. There is a scene in the hit Netflix show The Crown which reveals a fascinating side of the monarch. While giving Jackie Kennedy a personal tour of Buckingham Palace, the two women find themselves bonding over their respective positions as introverted women who have found themselves in the limelight. Surrounded by the Queen’s beloved corgis, both women admit they are happiest around animals and that their extroverted sisters would have been much better suited to their public roles.

Passage four
Questions 16 to 20 are based on the following passage
You’ve made it. You managed to navigate your way through the world’s largest airport you breezed through security and you successfully boarded the plane. Now you’re comfortable in your seat in the cabin, and there’s even a little bit it of elbow room, as the flight isn’t fully booked for once. With the hassle behind you, you settle in with your neck pillow, pop some Kenny G on your iPod, and get ready to spend quality time sleeping on a plane. And you’re abouto make a huge mistake that will put your health at risk, as reported by Travel + Leisure.
It’s not because of the Kenny G. It’s the shuteye part. According to Medline Plus, falling asleep during landing or takeoff could cause serious damage to your ears. It all has to do with the rapid changes in air pressure in the cabin. If you’re awake, a natural response to alleviate pressure on your eardrums during takeoff and landing is to “pop” them, to maintain a pressure equilibrium. If you’re sleeping on a plane, you can’t actively work to relax those muscles and release the tension, so you can become susceptible to dizziness, ear infections, eardrum damage, hearing loss and nose bleeds. “A quick change in altitude affects the air pressure in the ear,” says Angel Chalmers, a British pharmacist, via Express. “This leads to a vacuum in the Eustachian tubes(咽鼓管) which makes the ears feel blocked and sound dull.”
Keep those Eustachian tubes clear and keep those eyes open for at least another few minutes. Crack open that book you just bought in the terminal. After all, there are some major perks to buying your reading material at the airport.
16.The underlined sentence"youve made it .”(Paragraph 1) means that you have managed_____.
A. to board the plane
B. to get a bit of elbow room
C. to get ready to sleep after boarding
D. to make yourself comfortable after boarding
17. What would damage your health when the plane lakes off or lands?
A. Using a neck pillow.
B. Shutting your eyes
C.Listening to music
D. Falling asleep.
18. The underlined word"alleviate"( Paragraph 2) is the closest in meaning to “____”.
A.increase
B. reduce
C.maintain
D,escape
19. Having a vacuum in the Eustachian tubes during takeoff and landing could cause unpleasant symptoms to the following body parts EXCEPT____.
A. the throat
B. the nose
C. the cars
D. the head
20. The author suggests that you read a book____during the plane taking off and landing
A. to amuse yourself
B. to stay awake
C. to keep your ears clear
D. to make yourself comfortable

Section B Short Answer Questions(每小題 3 分,共 10 分)

Researchers in Japan and Australia say they have made progress in developing blood test that could one day help doctors identify who might get Alzheimer’s disease. The scientists said the test can recognize a protein known as amyloid (濤粉樣蛋) beta, which other studies have linked to Alzheimers. They said it was correct more than 90 percent of the time in a study involving over 370 people. The findings were published in the journal Nature.
Alzheimers disease is the most common form of demenna（癡呆). Experts believe dementia affects close to 50 million people worldwide. By the year 2050, it is expected to affect more than131 million people. Those numbers come from Alzheimers Disease International, a non-profit group. Currently, doctors have two ways to identify a buildup of amyloid beta in the brain. One is brain scan or brain imaging; the other is a spinal tap(脊椎抽 液). But both tests are invasive,costly and may only show results when the disease has already started to progress. There is no treatment that can slow the progression of Alzheimers. Current drugs can only case some of the effects of the disease.
Having a simple, low-cost blood test could make it easier for drug companies to find enough people who are at risk of developing Alzheimers to test new medicines, said Katsuhiko Yanagisawa. He was one of the leaders of the study. He works at the Japanese National Center for Geriatrics and Gerontology
Alzheimers disease is thought to start developing years before patients have any signs of memory loss. Experts say an important factor in finding an effective treatment will be the ability to recognize signs of the disease early. "You have got to walk before you run, "said Colin Masters, a co-leader of the study and a professor at the University of Melbourne in Australia. " You have to learn to diagnose the disease directly before you can hope to see the effect of therapeutic intervention. And that’ s where the real value in this test will come. " Masters added.
56.This passage reports the development of a test to diagnose Alzheimers disease
57. One advantage of the present test is that it costs than the previous tests.
58. All the three tests identify Alzheimer’s disease by detecting a protein named .
59. Can doctors cure or slow down the progression of Alzheimer’s disease today?
60. Alzheimers disease may have already started before patients have any signs of memory .

When asked how far engineers had done towards creating artificial intelligence(AI),Stephen W. Hawking replied: 66. Once humans develop artificial intelligence, it would take off on its own. It will redesign itself at an ever increasing rate. Humans, who are limited by slow biological evolution, couldnt compete with them. We would be replaced.”
In my view, the late Cambridge professor is wrong because there are strong grounds for believing that computers will never copy all human cognitive abilities. 67. AI has historically failed to copy human mentality, and it will continue to fail. Three fundamental problems explain why.
First, computers lack true understanding. A US philosopher John Searle proposes how a computer program can appear to understand Chinese stories by responding to questions, but fail to truly understand anything of the interaction.
Second, computers lack consciousness. Some researchers hold 68. if a robot experiences a conscious sensation as it interacts with the world, consciousness will exist in everything everywhere：in the cup of tea I am drinking, in the seat that I am sitting on. But does everything in this world have souls or minds? If we reject this idea, we must reject machine consciousness
Lastly, computers lack mathematical insight. Can the human mind be completely realized by mere computations my role as an Al expert on the International Committee for Robot Arms Control.I am particularly concerned by the potential development of robotic weapons systems. 69. These systems can engage themselves in military action without human instruction. This is because current AI is not similar to human intelligence. When fighting against each other, poorly designed autonomous systems have the potential to make the situations worse rapidly. Such systems can exhibit true artificial stupidity.
It is possible to agree that 70. AI may pose an existential threat to humanity, but it will never become more intelligent than us.

第三部分：閱讀理解（Part I Reading Comprehension本大題共20小題，每小題分，共30分）第一節(jié)：短文理解，考生可根據(jù)文章內容從每題四個選擇項中選出最佳答案。
Passage One
A lot of kids are getting online these days ―sharing data, talking about social issues, meeting adults as well as kids, and learning about other cultures. There seems to be everything on the network. Just like any other form of media, the quality of this massive collection of information is unequal, and there is good information as well as rubbish.Networks hold great promise: however, it’s also home to people who mean to hurt others or use their technical knowledge to steal from them . Although many Web pages can teach kids useful things, there are some other sites waiting to temp young people who are immature and easily affected.
By now, you may shake your head, but wait, let’s try to put the problem into perspective
’s safe for kids to use the Internet. The number of sites considered harmful is between 1% and 3%, which shows about million other sites are interesting and educational. Besides, to stop children from using these services just because crimes are being committed online would be like telling them not to attend college because students may have accidents on campus.
What can parents do to protect their children from those harmful sites? The simplest solution is the use of programs which block offensive sites. Such programs are set to screen out certain words likely to appear on “unhealthy” sites. But many sites inappropriate to young people are clever at using words with double meanings that may appear harmless. Whats more, not only do the programs fail to do the job satisfactorily, they also take away the decisive role of parents in children’s education. A child who downloads bad information or pictures can only be corrected by positive family influence. No filtering program is necessary for a child who has learned to say “no” to sites he knows are inappropriate for him.
Today, when children are exposed to technology at a young age, parents often find themselves lagging behind in computer skills. Surprisingly, this may be the key to your involvement. What is better way to learn about the Internet than to do so alongside your children? They’ll most likely pick it up more quickly than you do, of course, but you’ll have the chance to see, and take pride in, your child at work. You may search for information that interests your child together with him and get to know the “friends” he has online, just as you would get to know his other friends.
Thoughtful parents would combine supervision with communication, which is the best wav to take advantage of the Internet as a resource while protecting their children. Follow their examples and have fun with kids on the Net!
51. According to the passage, is it wise for parents to keep their children away from the computer? Why?
A) No. Because there are also millions of sites which are interesting and educational.
B) No. Because their children have the right to use computer,
C) Yes. Because there are many rubbish sites which may hurt children.
D)Yes. Because children may become addicted to computer games.
52. In the last two paragraphs, parents are advised to
A) learn about the Internet along with their children
B) watch their children while they are at work
C) search for information for their children
D) make friends with their children
53. According to the article, the best way to protect children as well as take advantage of the Internet is .
A) the use of filtering programs
B) parents，mastery of computer skills
C) the combination of supervision and communication
D) forbidding them to make friends on the Internet
54. Which of the following is closest in meaning to the underlined expression “l(fā)agging behind”？
A)hide behind B) run behind
C)walk behind D) fall behind
Passage Two
When you go to university to study for a degree, you have decided to study professionally, rather than as an amateur; so being a student is now your profession for at least the next four years.
This involves a change of attitude in many ways. Although the process has been going on since you went to middle school, the biggest change is going to take place. Now, instead of taking several subjects, you have chosen one major subject because you find it interesting and worth exploring further. The choice was yours. You also have the goal of getting a degree . The degree and the stages you have to pass through to achieve it give you motivation, even though it may become weak from time to time, and not all parts of the course will be exciting; a sure way to lose interest is to do too little work. It is a law of diminishing returns - the less work you do, the less interest you will have and the more bored you will become. So, regular work is needed to keep up your interest as well as to keep pace with new work.
Another change is in the relationship with teachers. This may well have changed during middle school and high school, but now the whole context is different. You are no longer forced lo slay in school all day, and apart from your class time, you organize your own time and place for studying. You are there to study (an active process) rather than to be taught (passive). Your teachers may or may not urge you, but they do want you to share their interest in the subject and they want you to succeed.
Some activities, like discussing and reading, are basic to studying. Make sure that you are doing these efficiently.
Group discussions give you a chance to train yourself to speak and discuss more effectively. Theywill fail in their purpose if you keep silent ―and if you start off this way, the harder it will become to get out of the situation of being the non-speaking member of the group. In the future you are almost certainly going to have to be good at speaking, so get into the way of talking about your subject now. This is actually more fun than sitting being silently miserable because you are not saving anything. Nobody will think what you say is foolish. Everyone will be thankful not to face awkward silence.
55. When does a person start to study professionally?
A）The time when he starts a profession.
B）The time when he goes to university.
C）The time when he knows how to study.
D）The time when he goes to high school.
56. Which of the following is not unique to university?
A）Students have to choose one major subject.
B）The goal of study is to get a degree.
C）Students need to work hard.
D）Students organize their own time for studying.
57. University teachers.
A）don’t care about students’ performance
B）hope students can share their interest in
C）force students to stay in school all day
D）know nothing about their students
does the underlined word “they” refer to？
A）University teachers.
B）Group discussions.
C）University students.
D）The topics of discussions.
Passage Three
When I first met Nina, I disliked her at once. She was wearing skintight pedal pushers, a flashy, floppy top, and sneakers with no socks - bizarrely inappropriate even at our very informal company. Soon, Nina was doggedly pumping me for information about the new department I was running, where she hoped to get a permanent job. Not a chance, I thought. Not if I have anything to say about it
However, I didn’t Within a few days she was ‘trying out’，for me. I gave her a moderately difficult, uninteresting, and unimportant project that I didn’t need for months. It took that long for her successor to put in order the mess she had made out of ft Although I couldn’t have prediction exactly what Nina would do，in three minutes I had assessed her as someone who could not be relied on to get a job done.
We all make quick judgments about strangers. Within seconds after we meet someone, We take in a host of details and draw rather large conclusions from them. We may decide in a minute whether it is someone’s nature to be warm or cold, friendly or hostile, anxious or calm, happy or troubled. Unconsciously, we often ask and quickly answer certain questions: Will I enjoy talking to him at this party? Will she make an interesting friend? Will he/she make a good boss / sales manager / secretary for me? If we get to know the person better, we may change our minds. But we may not have the chance.
From Nina’s inappropriate dress and aggressive behavior toward me, I’d decided she was pushy. stupid and had poor judgment.I also had a lot of vague impressions I couldn’t explain. It was as if a warning bell went off in my head. Its message: this person was not to be trusted; her behavior would be unpredictable; she was motivated by a peculiar agenda of her own that I would never understand.
I was using a combination of observation, inference and intuition.
did the author dislike Nina?
A）Because of her badly looking sneakers.
B）Because of her inappropriate dress and aggressive behavior.
C）Because of her special uniform.
D）Because of her dirty words to the author.
did the author give Nina an“unimportant project” that he “didn’t need for months”？
A）Because the author wanted to play trick on her.
B）Because he had no other job for her to do at the moment.
C）Because the author believed she was the right person for the job.
D）Because the author thought she couldn’t be relied on to get a job done.
to the passage, which of the following is not true?
A）People tend to make quick judgment about strangers.
B）The author’s first judgment about Nina was totally wrong.
C）Nina behaved rather pushy when she first met the author.
D）The author actually disliked Nina at the first sight.
author’s judgment about Nina was based on .
A）a combination of observation, inference and intuition
B）a combination of imagination and observation
C）a combination of observation, intuition and imagination
D）a combination of inference, analysis and imagination

Passage1
Many post-80s couples are complaining that going to the movies, shopping or attending parties have become impossible since their kids were born. That s the way most parents are living their lives, no weekends of their own, no time to visit friends, not even a chance of promotion in their jobs.
Asking help from their parents might be a way out,but problems are that some aging parents are not strong enough to take care of the kids, and that the kids may also become too spoiled by their grandparents.
Then, here comes a solution: families with kids can form a small group, and parents of each family can take turns to look after all the kids in this group on weekends. Thus, other parents can have some quiet time and feel free to do something they ve been planning for a long time. At the same time, the kids can make new friends and won t be hanging around their parents all day long. This is baby-pooling.

Passage2
It is a terrible illustration of man s weakness to nature ,and the tsunami(海嘯) that struck the Japanese coast in March, 2011 has illustrated the difficulty of fighting against natural disasters, even for a prosperous nation.
Totally preventing tsunami-damage is impossible. But there is much that can be done to minimize damage and loss of life. Measures that can be taken include designing solid buildings, and developing early-warming systems, public education programs and evacuation(疏散) strategies.Moreover, the approach of a tsunami is possibly picked up by the sensors of complicated international warming systems. Countries can use radio and television broadcasts as well as loudspeaker networks to warn the public.
But an early warming system depends on how far the tsunami strikes, if it s close by, the warning system is not going to be very effective. When people are faced with an unstoppable force like a tsunami the massive waves
created by events like underwater earthquakes, the best course of action for them is to get inland and to the higher ground as quickly as possible.
66. The first paragraph tells us that .
A. man can easily defeat the nature
B. tsunamis take place only in Japan
C. man s ability to cope with natural disasters is limited
D. the tsunami-damage in Japan is not so terrible

Passage 3
Global warming is causing more than 300,000 deaths and about $125 billion in economic losses each year, according to a report by the Global Humanitarian Forum, an organization led by Annan, the former United Nations secretary general.
The report, to be released Friday, analyzed data and existing studies of health, disaster, population and economic trends. It found that human-influenced climate change was raising the global death rates from illnesses including malnutrition (營養(yǎng)不良) and heat-related health problems.
But even before its release, the report drew criticism from some experts on climate and risk, who questioned its methods and conclusions.
Along with the deaths, the report said that the lives of 325 million people, primarily in poor countries, were being seriously affected by climate change. It projected that the number would double by 2030.
Roger Pielke Jr.a political scientist at the University of Colorado, Boulder, who studies disaster trends, said the Forum’s report was “a methodological embarrassment” because there was no way to distinguish deaths or economic losses related to human-driven global warming amid the much larger losses resulting from the growth in populations and economic development in vulnerable (易受傷害的) regions. Dr. Pielke said that “climate change is an important problem requiring our utmost attention.” But the report, he said, “will harm the cause for action on both climate change and disasters because it is so deeply flawed (有瑕疵的).”
However, Soren Andreasen, a social scientist at Dalberg Global Development Partners who supervised the writing of the report, defended it, saying that it was clear that the numbers were rough estimates. He said the report was aimed at world leaders, who will meet in Copenhagen in December to negotiate a new international climate treaty.
In a press release describing the report, Mr. Annan stressed the need for the negotiations to focus on increasing the flow of money from rich to poor regions to help reduce their vulnerability to climate hazards while still curbing

Passage 4
Reaching new peaks of popularity in North America is Iceberg Water, which is harvested from icebergs off the coast of Newfoundland, Canada.
Arthur von Wiesenberger, who carries the title Water Master, is one of the few water critics in North America. As a boy, he spent time in the larger cities of Italy, France and Switzerland, where bottled water is consumed daily. Even then, he kept a water journal, noting the brands he liked best. “My dog could tell the difference between bottled and tap water,” He says.
But is plain tap water all that bad? Not at all. In fact, New York’s municipal water for more than a century was called the champagne of tap water and until recently considered among the best in the world in terms of both taste and purity. Similarly, a magazine in England found that tap water from the Thames River tasted better than several leading brands of bottled water that were 400 times more expensive.
Nevertheless, soft-drink companies view bottled water as the next battle-ground for market share 日本人妻丰满熟妇久久久久久| 少妇扒开双腿自慰出白浆| 国产69堂一区二区三区在线观看| 国产熟妇高潮叫床视频播放| 粉红理论泰剧| 甜性涩爱在线播放| 蜜臀av人妻久久无码精品麻豆| 无码人妻精品一区二区三区在线| 宿主每日被guan满的日常| 我的变态室友(h)三攻一受| 久久亚洲熟女cc98cm| 日本添下边无码视频| 偷看18美女洗澡过程| 国产精品美女午夜爽爽爽免费| 日本一区二区在线播放| 狠狠躁夜夜躁人人爽野战天天| 天天干天天日| 偷偷藏不住小说免费阅读| 特级毛片www| 草莓视频在线观看| 强开少妇嫩苞又嫩又紧小说| 好色先生下载| 和60岁女人做下面好松| 高清vpswindows另类乱| 亚洲精品无码高潮喷水在线| 一本色道在线久88在线观看片| 中文字幕无码亚洲字幕成a人蜜桃| 四虎永久在线精品免费一区二区| 另类sm一区二区三区免费视频| 大胸美女被吃奶爽死视频免费| 在电梯伦流澡到高潮h男男| 当着全班面被c到高潮哭视频| 最近免费中文字幕mv免费高清版| 我们的日子电视剧免费观看完整版| 青青草视频在线观看| 老熟妇小伙子hd另类| good在线观看| 亚洲妇女无套内射精| 机长脔到她哭h粗话h动漫| 日本a级作爱片金瓶双艳| 蜜臀av在线播放|
