London Underground
There are 11 colour-coded Underground lines. Services run regularly from around 05:00 to 00:30 (Sunday 07: 30 to 23:30) on most-routes.
Visit tfl. gov. uk/tube for more information.
Tip：
Always stand on the right when using the escalators (电动扶梯) at Tube stations. It can get hot and busy on the Tube during peak (高峰) travel times, so you may prefer to travel outside these hours.
Buses
A cheap and easy way to travel around London. They generally run from 05 : 00 to 00 ： 30. Night buses operate on many major routes from around midnight to 05:00, and some operate a 24-hour service.
It is not possible to pay for your London bus fare in cash. Instead, you can pay with a Visitor Oyster card, Oyster card, Travelcard or UK-issued contactless payment card. A single bus journey is l. 50 with an Oyster card or UK-issued contactless payment card.
To help you get home, if you don’t have enough credit on your Oyster card, you will be able to make one more bus journey.
After this you will need to top up the credit on your card before you use it again. If you’re your contactless payment card has been issued outside the UK, please check tfL gov. uk/contactless before you use your card to travel on our bus services. For any international transaction fees (手续费) that may apply, please check with your card issuer.

Last Saturday, our class had an excited basketball match with our neighbor Class 4. I had thought that our team was consisted of strong and able players, me including, while the opposite team was no match for us. However, when the match started, I was surprised to find that every member of the other team was fighting hardly, despite the fact they were far less capable than us. It came as no surprise that we become the winner in the match. And they won our respect for our performance in the game. The result of the match has taught me that, whatever the outcome is, which counts is that we have tried our best. Only in this way can we make rapid progresses in life.

【题目】Joy Mangano was 33 and divorced. She had three kids under age 7, and was barely keeping up payments on her small two-bedroom home by working extra hours as a waitress. “There were times when I would lie in bed and think, I don’t know how I’m going to pay that bill,” Mangano says.
But he had a special ability for seeing the obvious thing. She knew how hard it was to mop the floor. “I was tired of bending down, putting my hands in dirty water, wringing (拧) out a mop,” Mangano says. “So, There s gotta be a better way.
How about a “self-wringing” mop? She designed a special tool you could twist in two directions at once, and still keep your hands clean and dry. She set out to sell it, first a few at flea markers.
Then Mangano met with the media. But would couch potatoes (电视迷）buy a mop? The experts on shopping TV were less than certain. They gave it a try, and it failed. Mangano was sure it would sell if they’d let her do the on-camera display. She said, “Get me on that stage, and I will sell this mop because it’s a great item.”
So QVC, a multinational corporation specializing in televised home shopping, took a chance on her. “ I got onstage and the phones went crazy. We sold every mop in minutes.”

【题目】阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项中，选出最佳选项。
B
A new word duang is taking the Internet by storm in China - but no one knows quite what it means. The character “duang” is so new that it does not even exist in the Chinese dictionary. But it has already spread like wildfire online in China, appearing more than 8 million times on China's micro-blogging site Weibo, where it drew 312,000 discussions among 15,000 users. On China's biggest online search engine Baidu, it has been looked up almost 600,000 times. It's been noticed in the West too, with Foreign Policy seeing it as a “break the Internet” viral meme - like a certain Kim Kardashian image, or a certain multicoloured dress.
But what does it mean? “Everyone's duang-ing and I still don't know what it means! Looks like it's back to school for me,” said Weibo user Weileiweito. Another user asked: “Have you duanged today? My mind is full of duang duang duang.” “To duang or not to duang, that is the question,” wrote user BaiKut automan.
“Duang” seems to be an example of onomatopoeia, a word that phonetically imitates a sound. It all seems to have started with Hong Kong action star Jackie Chan, who in 2004 was featured in a shampoo advertisement where he said famously defended his smooth, black hair using the rhythmical-sounding “duang”. The word resurfaced again recently after Chan posted it on his Weibo page. Thousands of users then began to flood Chan's Weibo page with comments, making the word in reference to his infamous shampoo appearance.
The word appears to have many different meanings, and there's no perfect translation, but you could use it as an adjective to give emphasis to the word that follows it. A cat might be “duang cute”, for example. Or you might be “very duang confused” by this blog. For readers of Chinese characters, the Jackie Chan theme is also apparent from the strange way in which the word is written: a combination of Chan's names written in Chinese.
（1）What's the best title of the passage?
A.Millions share new Chinese character.
B.There are many great storms in China.
C.The Internet has made out new words.
D.Many try to find ways to stop wildfire.
（2）What is discussed in the second paragraph?
A.The doubt of the word.
B.The structure of the word.
C.The meaning of the word.
D.The root of the word.
（3）When Jackie Chan first said duang, he really wanted to _____.
A.create an important word
B.see his Weibo Page flooded
C.praise a kind of shampoo
D.play a Hong Kong action film
（4）When duang is used as an adjective, it can be used to _____.
A.emphasize the word after it
B.make other people confused
C.combine the users' names
D.open China's micro-blogging

【题目】阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项（A、B、C、D）中，选出最佳选项，并在题卡上将该选项涂黑。
C
Loneliness is like a disease, and what's worse, it's contagious. It can spread from one person to another, according to the recent research that stresses the power of one person's emotions to affect even people he doesn't know.
The new analysis, involving 4,793 people who were interviewed every two years between 2005 and 2015, showed that a friend of a lonely person was 52％ more likely to develop feelings of loneliness by the time of the next interview. A friend of that person was 25％ more likely, and a friend of a friend of a friend was 15％ more likely.
“Loneliness is not just the property of an individual. It can be transmitted across people—even people you don't have direct contact with,” said John T. Cacioppo, a psychologist of the University of Chicago who led the study published in the December issue of the Journal of Personality and Social Psychology.
Loneliness has been linked to medical problems, including depression, sleep problems and generally poorer physical health. Identifying some of the causes could help reduce the emotion and improve health, experts said.
Although the study did not examine how loneliness spreads, Cacioppo said another research has provided clues. “Let's say for whatever reason you get lonely. You then interact with other people in a more negative fashion. That puts them in a negative mood and makes them more likely to interact with other people in a negative fashion and they minimize their social ties and become lonely,” Cacioppo said.
According to Cacioppo, loneliness spread more easily among women than men, perhaps because women were more likely to express emotions.
Lonely people become less and less trusting others. This makes it more and more difficult for them to make friends－and more likely that society will reject them. Therefore, it is important to recognize and deal with loneliness．Cacioppo emphasizes people who have been pushed to the edges of society should receive help to repair their social networks.
（1）It can be concluded from the first paragraph that ______.
A.Loneliness is actually a kind of disease
B.More and more people are suffering from loneliness
C.Loneliness spreads in social networks
D.Emotions are only transmitted between friends
（2）According to Cacioppo, lonely people________.
A.will probably be deserted by society
B.are more likely to trust others
C.are less likely to be rejected by friends
D.rely heavily on others
（3）The word “minimize” in Paragraph 5 is closest in meaning to “________”.
A.increase
B.keep
C.create
D.reduce
（4）Which should lonely people do to get rid of loneliness?
A.Refuse the help given by others.
B.Admit and try to solve it.
C.Interact with others more negatively.
D.Express emotions more often.
