14.In the USA the high school graduation ceremony is very important.12th-grade students,or seniors,who are about 17or 18years old,look forward(61)tothis event.The graduation ceremony itself takes place at the end of May or (62)beginning(begin) of June.The ceremony usually includes music,awards,and a guest speaker.After the speeches,students walk to the front of the room(63)to receive(receive) their diplomas from the headmaster.Students start preparing for graduation a long time(64)beforeit happens.They order things,designed(65)especially(especial) for their class.
Another tradition is to have their photographs taken.These photographs are used for the class yearbook,which is a(66)printed(print) book about all the students in the school,but with most of the pages about the seniors.Students have special cards,called announcements,printed to send to friends and relatives to tell(67)them(they) about their graduation.The cards often include an(68)invitation(invite) to the ceremony.If you receive(69)anannouncement,you should send a present or money to the graduate.After the ceremony,families usually have graduation parties for friends and relatives.It is a day and a night(70)that/whichhigh school seniors remember for a long time.

分析 本文写了美国中学生都盼望的一个毕业纪念日,在这一天包括很多学生们乐于的传统项目.

解答 61.to 考查固定短语.  look forward  to doing sth.意为"期待做某事",所以答案填to.
62.beginning 考查非谓语.根据句意:六月之初.begin是动词,所以用动名词beginning.    
63.to receive  考查非谓语.本句是用动词不定式做目的状语. 走到教室前面去领取校长的毕业证书.所以答案填to receive.
64.before.考查连词.语境表示,毕业之前.故填before.
 65.especially 考查副词.especially意为"尤其,特别",符合语境.
66.printed   考查非谓语动词.print与book之间为逻辑上的动宾关系,表示被动,故用过去分词printed作定语.
67.them  考查代词.本句中他们在句中做tell的宾语,所以答案用宾格代词them.             
68.invitation  考查名词.根据句意:包括一份邀请函.  invitation名词"邀请函",
69.an  考查冠词. an announcement 表示"一份公告",an在此处表示泛指:.
 70.that/which 考查定语从句.根据句意:这是一个高中毕业生长期记住的一天和一个晚上.先行词是a day and a night,在从句中做宾语,所以关系代词用that或者是which.

4.In Western countries,bread is one of the most important foods.When they get up in the morning many people eat toast (烤面包).They spread butter and jam on their toast.People eat bread at other times of the day too.For example,at main meals,they often eat bread with soup.
It's also very common to eat sandwiches.A sandwich is two pieces of bread with a filling inside-salad,cheese or fish.A hamburger is a kind of sandwich.
There are many different kinds of bread.Some are special to some countries.For example,the baguette (法国棍子面包) is a long,thin loaf that began in France.

Some kinds of bread have additives (添加剂).They are put into the bread for many reasons.Some additives are good for you-for example vitamin C.Others are there to make the bread last longer.Still others to make it taste better-but they do not necessarily make the bread healthier to eat!

5.It's a brand new world-a world built around brands.Hard charging,noise making,culture shaping brands are everywhere.They're on supermarket shelves,of course,but also in business plans for dotcom startups and in the names of sports complexes.Brands are infiltrating(渗透)people's everyday lives-by sticking their logos on clothes,in concert programs,on subway station walls,even in elementary school classrooms.
We live in an age in which CBS newscasters wear Nike jackets on the air,in which Burger King and McDonald's open newsstands in elementary-school lunchrooms,in which schools like Stanford University are endowed with a Yahoo!Founders Chair.But as brands reach (and then overreach)into every aspect of our lives,the companies behind them invite more questions,deeper examination-and an inevitable backlash (强烈反应) by consumers.
"Our intellectual lives and our public spaces are being taken over by marketing-and that has real implications for citizenship,"says author and activist Naomi Klein."It's important for any healthy culture to have public space-a place where people are treated as citizens instead of as consumers.We've completely lost that space."
Since the mid-1980s,as more and more companies have shiftedfrom being about products to being about ideas-Starbucks isn't selling coffee;it's selling community!-those companies have poured more and more resources into marketing campaigns.
To pay for those campaigns,those same companies figured out ways to cut costs else where-for example,by using contract labor at home and low-wage labor in developing countries.Contract laborers are hired on a temporary,per-assignment basis,and employers have no obligation to provide any benefits(such as health insurance)or long-term job security.This saves companies money but obviously puts workers in vulnerable situations.In the United States,contract labor has given rise to so-called McJobs,which employers and workers alike pretend are temporary-even though these jobs are usually held by adults who are trying to support families.
The massive expansionof marketing campaigns in the 1980s coincided with the reduction of government spending for schools and for museums.This made those institutions much too willing,even eager,to partner with private companies.But companies took advantage of the needs of those institutions,reaching too far,and overwhelming the civic space with their marketing agendas.

31.What does the passage intend to tell us?D
A.The problems with current corporate practices.
B.The nature of current marketing campaigns and strategies.
C.The importance of brands in American culture.
D.The excessive presence of brands and marketing in people's lives.
32.What is Naomi Klein's attitude towards the infiltration of brands into public spaces?A
A.Concerned.B.Indifferent.C.Favorable.D.Optimistic.
33.The passage suggests that most contract laborers in the U.S.B.
A.pretend to be permanent workers
B.may have trouble supporting their families financially
C.have work conditions comparable to those of low-wage workers overseas
D.are likely to receive health benefits from their employers
34.We may infer from the last paragraph thatC.
A.inadequate federal funding facilitated the privatization of schools and museums
B.government reduced spending for schools and museums for their cooperation with companies
C.public institutions were only too anxious to accept corporate marketing as a source of funding
D.by the 1980s,very few public institutions were not being funded by corporations.

2.A 16-year survey on the arctic Norwegian island of Svalbard found the reindeer(驯鹿)there have declined in weight by an alarming 12percent.The reduction in average body-mass is being blamed on global warming.
In research presented lately at a meeting of the British Ecological Society in Liverpool,scientists will explain how rising temperatures are making female reindeer difficult to obtain nutrients during important periods of being pregnant.
Snow in Svalbard typically covers the ground for eight months of the year,which,combined with low temperatures,limits grass growth to June and July.But as summer temperatures have increased by around 1.5℃,grasslands have become more productive,allowing female reindeer to gain more weight by the autumn and therefore to conceive(孕育)more calves.
However,warmer winters have brought with them greater rainfall which freezes when is settles on the snow,therefore locking out the reindeer from the life-supporting food below.As a result,female reindeer are becoming starved,causing them to give birth to much lighter young.The average mass of an adult reindeer in 1998,when the survey began,was 55kg,but by 2016 IT had dropped to 48kg.
Professor Steve Albon,an ecologist at the James Hatton Institute in Aberdeen,said that,because the mammals have a relatively high surface-area-to-volume ratio(表面积与体积比),they are no particularly energy efficient.
Reindeer can often access the inadequate food sources beneath the snow by clearing IT away with their antlers(鹿角),but they cannot break through the hard ice.Without access to the food in winter,calves are being born far lighter than they should be.Numbers of reindeer have also increased rapidly in the past 20 years,meaning that those which are born are facing greater competition for food."The implication(含义)are that there may well be more smaller reindeer in the Arctic in the coming decades,but possibly at the risk of catastrophic die-offs because of increased ice on the ground,"said Professor Albon Despite the gloomy findings,reindeer appear to be suffering less from the impact of climate change than some other arctic species.

32.Which of the following may be the most important reason for the smaller reindeer?D
A.Heavy snow.
B.Greater rainfall.
C.Hard ice.
D.Global warming.
33.According to the passage,rising temperatures will not lead toC.
A.grass growing more rapidly in summer
B.more rainfall in the arctic area in winter
C.female reindeer's gaining more weight in winter
D.female reindeer's suffering from hunger in winter
34.What does the underlined word"gloomy"in the last paragraph mean?C
A.Exciting.
B.Optimistic.
C.Disappointing.
D.Doubtful.
35.How does the writer develop the passage?A
A.By analyzing the research.
B.By classification of reindeer.
C.By comparing opinions of experts.
D.By telling stories of different species.

19.A good apology can help you bring your relationship back to a happy place faster.(36)FTest your sorry skills,and then learn how to construct your own perfect apology.
Test Your Sorry Smarts:
The Apology:You're late for band practice,so you rush up to your conductor:"Sorry!I was planning to be here early,but it's raining,so the train wasn't on time."
Is it good or bad?Bad!(37)Awhat you should have done differently and how your mistake affected the other person:"I know my lateness kept you waiting.Next time,I'11 leave earlier."
The Apology:You lost track of time on Friday night.When your dad finds you sneaking in,you say:"I'm sorry that I missed my curfew(晚间必须赶回家的时间).I know I'm wrong,and I understand if I can't go out again until I've regained your trust."
Is good or bad?Good!This apology works because you point out exactly where you had a lapse(疏忽)in judgment.It's important,to acknowledge that you're apologizing because you knew a rule but broke it anyway.(38)E
A sincere"SORRY!"is a tricky deal,but these tips will get it done right:
First,apologize as soon as possible in person.For an apology to sound sincere,you need to talk face-to-face.

E.You're also expressing that you've learned from your mistakes.

G.You may think it's suggested,but no apology is complete without these magic words.

3.Sally doesn't clean or cut up vegetables.The new salad robot making its debut in San F'rancisco this month is more like a salad vending machine(贩卖机):Press a few buttons on a touchscreen and it drops some refrigerated salad into a bowl.But Sally the Salad Robot could be the latest step in automating some of the more repetitive pans of food preparation.Its creators hope food robots can help with one of Silicon Valley's biggest restaurant problems:a shortage of kitchen workers.
Sally is the first product from Chowbotics,a Redwood City startup developing robots for the food-service industry.CEO and Founder Deepak Sekar spent two years creating Sally with help from Apple Fellow Rich Page."I've always thought cooking was 20% creative work and 80% formulaic work,"said Sekar.Sekar imagines Sally's popping up in shared spaces like cafeterias,airports and schools-that is,places where a healthy meal would be a welcome change from the usual pre-packaged food.Eventually different versions of Sally could find their way into busy restaurant kitchens.
When first thought of﹩30,000 is a lot money for a salad robot.But in the Bay Area,a full-time kitchen employee like a line cook can cost﹩40,000 a year."Sally is the best employee.She doesn't sleep.she doesn't take vacation and she's hardly ever sick,"said Kelly Olazar,former Google chef who works at Chowbotics.It's a constant struggle to hire and retain(留住)restaurant staff.That's largely due to the increased housing prices caused by the same tech employees they're trying to feed.
Sally still needs humans.There are numerous workers in each salad's farm-to-robot journey.Someone has to clean and restock the device at least twice a day.People grow and prepare the foods.Chefs developed the salad recipes and dressings.And Sally is not replacing any jobs at its early locations.Sally's first customers will be diners at Calafia and tech workers at the Calvanize co-working space in San Francisco.

32.Why was Sally created?D
A.To make cooking process faster.
B.To provide cleaner and cooler salads.
C.To improve the kitchen employees'working conditions.
D.To deal with the lack of labor in Silicon Valley's kitchens.
33.What does the underlined word"formulaic"in Paragraph 2 probably mean?C
A.formal.
B.rough.
C.routine.
D.difficult.
34.What may cause restaurant workers to leave Silicon Valley?B
A.Long distances from home                 
B.High housing prices.
C.Too many tech employees to feed.
D.Large amounts of physical work.
35.What can we know about Sally according to the text?B
A.It is a portable machine.
B.It can comparatively save money.
C.It is intended to be a home robot.
D.It has taken the place of human chefs.

18.If Confucius were still alive today and could celebrate his September 28birthday with a big cake,there would be a lot of candles.He'd need a fan or a strong wind to help him put them out.
While many people in China will remember Confucius on his special day,few people in the United States will give him a passing thought.It's nothing personal.Most Americans don't even remember the birthdays of their own national heroes.
But this doesn't mean that Americans don't care about Confucius.In many ways he has become a bridge that foreigners must cross if they want to reach a deeper understanding of China.
In the past two decades,the Chinese studies programs have gained huge popularity in Western universities.More recently,the Chinese government has set up Confucius Institutes in more than 80countries.These schools teach both Chinese language and culture.The main courses of Chinese culture usually include Chinese art,history and philosophy.Some social scientists suggest that Westerners should take advantage of the ancient Chinese wisdom to make up for the drawbacks(不足处) of Western philosophy.Students in the United States,at the same time,are racing to learn Chinese.So they will be ready for life in a world where China is an equal power with the United States.Businessmen who hope to make money in China are reading books about Confucius to understand their Chinese customers.
So the old thinker's ideas are still alive and well.
Today China attracts the West more than ever,and it will need more teachers to introduce Confucius and Chinese culture to the West.
As for the old thinker,he will not soon be forgotten by people in the West,even if his birthday is.
24.The opening paragraph is mainly intended toC.
A.show great respect for the ancient thinker
B.provide some key facts about Confucius
C.attract the readers'interest in the subject
D.prove the popularity of modern birthday celebrations
25.We can learn from Paragraph 4that American studentsA.
A.have a great interest in studying Chinese
B.try to get high scores in Chinese exams
C.take an active part in Chinese competitions
D.fight for a chance to learn Chinese
26.What is the best title for the passage?C
A.Forgotten Wisdom in America
B.Huge Fans of the Chinese Language
C.Old Thinker with a Big Future  
D.Chinese Culture for Westerners
27.The passage is likely to appear inB.
A.a scientific report     
B.a newspaper
C.a history paper            
D.a philosophy textbook.
