They say, “A pinkie promise must be 16 for 100 years.” Then they may press their thumbs together to complete the promise. Sometimes, ‎ ‎ 17 will hook pinkies and promise to be together forever. There are many theories(推测) on the origin of the pinkie promise. Some say it comes from a nursery rhyme. 18 say it was introduced from the West – born out of a love story where a man and a woman hooked fingers. One theory is that it may have 19 to do with the role of fingers in Chinese culture. The Chinese character for “finger” also means “aim(旨)” (referring to people’s thoughts). So hooking fingers can be seen as the exchanging of 20 . Therefore, the fingers play a(n) 21 role in making an oath(盟约): They can not only be used to complete a promise, but also be cut for making a blood oath. When someone swears to heaven, he uses his 22 to point to the sky. 23 , hooking fingers means making a serious promise. In some movies, a person who breaks a promise may have his little finger cut 24 ! Of course, this kind of thing is not very likely to happen in real life. But we can still see 25 important “pinkie promises” can be. So next time, when you hook pinkies with someone, you’d better be careful with your promise!‎ ‎16.

Apart from its warm sunshine, golden beaches and blue seas, the province has some other interesting features. This year marks the 30th anniversary of the establishment(建立) of Hainan province. It’s a good time for us to take a closer look at the island province.‎ China‎’s southernmost city If you are bored of Hainan’s more popular tourist cities, such as Sanya and Haikou, you may want to go to Sansha instead. Sansha is China’s southernmost city. It includes many small islands, sandbanks and reefs in the Xisha, Zhongsha and Nansha island groups. Its government is seated on the island‎ of ‎Yongxing. Since Sansha was established in 2012, a hospital, a library and a movie theater have been built on Yongxing. Over 2.5 million plants have been planted there to protect the environment.‎ The “migratory birds”‎ Migratory birds fly from the north to the south in winter. In China, a group of people are also referred to as “migratory birds”. Every year, from October to April, people from all over China go on holiday to Hainan to enjoy the warm weather and fresh air. Most of them are elderly people from northern China, especially Northeast China. According to the Hainan local government, more than 1 million elderly choose to spend their winter in Hainan each year. These elderly “migratory birds” also encourage younger family members to join them on the sunny island.‎ A famous forum(论坛)‎ People in other countries might not know about Hainan, but they probably know about Boao. Boao, a town in Hainan, became China’s first permanent(永久的) site for hosting international meetings in 2001. Every year in April, the Boao Forum for Asia, a nongovernmental international organization, hosts its annual meetings. Officials, business people and experts from different countries come to Boao to discuss economic issues.‎ The forum has been important for the development of Asian cities. Hainan and Boao have both benefited(收益) greatly from hosting the conferences. More restaurants and hotels have been built, creating more jobs for locals. An airport was opened in 2016. The forum has helped Hainan build itself into an international tourism destination. 28. What’s the main idea of this passage?‎ A. A famous forum in Boao.‎ B. China‎’s southernmost city.‎ C. The elderly “migratory birds”.‎ D. Interesting features of Hainan. ‎ ‎29.

His family surrounded him when he reached the yard.‎ Abuelita’s eyes darted from the guitar to the albums. “What is all this?” she said. “You keep secrets from your own family?”‎ ‎“It’s all that time he spends in the plaza,” Tio Berto said. ‎ ‎“Fills his head with crazy fantasies,” Tia Gloria added.‎ ‎“It’s not a fantasy(幻想)!” Miguel protested. He handed his father the old photograph of Mama Imelda, Coco, and the unidentified(未知身份的) man and pointed to the guitar. “That man was Ernesto de la Cruz! The greatest musician of all time!”‎ ‎“We’ve never known anything about this man. But whoever he was, he still left his family,” Miguel’s father said. “This is no future for my son.”‎ ‎“But, Papa, you told me to look to the ofrenda(灵坛). You said my family would guide me! Well, Ernesto de la Cruz is my family! I’m supposed to play music!”‎ ‎“Never! That man’s music was a curse(诅咒)! I will not allow it!” Abuelita said, raising her voice.‎ ‎“You will listen to your family. No more music,” added Miguel’s father.‎ ‎“Just listen to me play – ” “End of argument,” Papa said.‎ Miguel thought they’d change their minds if they heard him play. He lifted his guitar and prepared to strum, but Abuelita snatched it from his hands. She pointed to the photo. “You want to end up like that man? Forgotten? Left off your family’s ofrenda?”‎ ‎“I don’t care if I’m on some stupid ofrenda!” The words burst out before Miguel could stop them. He couldn’t take them back, even though he wanted to.‎ The family gasped. Abuelita’s brow hardened. She raised the guitar in the air.‎ ‎“No!” Miguel cried.‎ ‎“Mama,” Miguel’s dad said just as Abuelita smashed(撞击) the guitar against the ground.‎ ‎“There! No guitar, no music,” she said.‎ The whole family was silent as Miguel stared at his guitar, shattered into a hundred pieces on the ground. Miguel couldn’t move — he felt like someone had smashed him to pieces.‎ ‎32. This passage would most likely be found in a book of . ‎ A. travel B. history C. nature D. novel ‎33. What does “it” in the passage refer to?‎ A. photograph B. guitar C. music D. curse ‎34. How did Miguel’s feelings change in the passage?‎ hopeful excited hopeful hopeless ‎ A. B.‎ excited hopeful hopeful hopeless C. D.‎ ‎35. Why did Miguel’s father say “This is no future for my son.”?‎ A. Because he thought his son Miguel was crazy about fantasies because of a curse.‎ B. Because he thought it impossible for Miguel to be a great musician like his hero.‎ C. Because he thought Miguel shouldn’t only dream for music after leaving his family.‎ D. Because he thought music couldn’t guide Miguel to a bright future instead of family. ‎ D Frederick M. Hess is the director of education policy studies at the American Enterprise Institute, which is a nonprofit organization that conducts(进行) research on many public issues. He says that a long summer vacation doesn’t make sense(有意义) in today’s world.‎ ‎     Can American students afford to take a summer vacation? In a summer vacation, millions of kids spend valuable time sending messages, watching TV, playing video games and doing shopping in the mall. They will also be putting their academic(学术性的) futures in danger.‎ ‎     Summer vacation once made sense in the past when you didn’t need an education to get a good job. But now things have changed. For today’s students, academic skills are important to students’ future success, but such skills are affected in the summertime. Many nations don’t give kids an American-style summer vacation. They offer no more than seven continuous weeks of vacation. Most American school districts offer up to thirteen weeks. To compete(竞争) in the global marketplace, Americans must be prepared to go up against international competitors. ‎ ‎     Summer vacation also causes challenges for today’s families. In the 1960s, more than 60% of families had a stay-at-home Mom. Now, two-thirds of American children live in households where every adult works. For these families, summer vacation can be more burdensome(难以承担的) than break. Someone must watch the kids.‎ ‎    But the biggest problem may be how summer vacation hurts academic achievement. Researchers have found that disadvantaged students lose significant ground in the summertime.‎ ‎     A longer school year does not have to be an invitation to hard boring work. Instead, it should allow teachers to have more time to organize richer and more imaginative lessons. Schools would have more time to devote to athletics, languages, music and the arts. ‎ Summer vacation can be a very good thing. But in the 21st century, it may also be outdated. ‎ ‎36. What’s Frederick M. Hess’s opinion about summer holiday?‎ ‎ A. A long summer vacation is just a waste of time nowadays. ‎ B. A long summer vacation is very common all over the world. ‎ C. A long summer vacation doesn’t make sense in today’s world. ‎ D. A long summer vacation is good for both children and parents.‎ ‎37. In a summer vacation, millions of American students do the following things EXCEPT _____. ‎ A. sending messages B. watching TV C. playing video games D. helping parents ‎38. How long do most American students have for their summer vacation?‎ A. Less than two months. B. Up to thirteen weeks. ‎ C. No more than seven weeks. D. About one month or more.‎ ‎39. Why can summer vacation be more burdensome than break for some families?‎ A. Because these family members need time to organize some meaningful activities for kids.‎ B. Because these families need their children to work instead of having the summer vacation.‎ C. Because these family members are too busy with their work to look after the kids at home.‎ D. Because these families cannot afford the children’s education during the summer vacation.‎ ‎40. What should a longer school year lead to? ‎ A. More boring work for teachers. B. More burden for parents with jobs. ‎ C. More imaginative lessons for students. D. More colourful activities for teachers. ‎ 非选择题（共50分）‎ 四、填空（共15小题；每小题1分，满分15分）‎ A）根据括号中所给的汉语写出单词，使句子意思完整正确，并将答案填写在答题卡标号为41—45的相应位置上。‎ ‎41.

He was a poet known for the nostalgia(乡愁) he describes in his poems. Born in 1928 in Nanjing, Jiangsu, Yu and his family 51 Taiwan in the 1950s. He lived and worked there 52 . Nostalgia is Yu’s masterpiece in which he expresses his homesickness for the Chinese mainland when he was in Taiwan. Even 53 who know little about literature are familiar with lines from the poem. The poem is 54 in Chinese high school textbooks. Yu spent his whole life writing. “The reason why I 55 till today comes down to my passion for the Chinese language,” he once said in a 2015 interview with People’s Daily. He then added that this passion was strengthened by his love for his mother and his motherland.‎ 五、阅读填空。（共20小题；每小题1分，满分20分）‎ A) 阅读下面短文，根据所读内容，在文章后第56-65小题的空格里填入一个最恰当的单词，‎ 并将答案填写在答题卡标号为56-65的相应位置上。    ‎ 注意：每个空格只填一个单词。‎ It’s said that human have seven basic emotions: anger, contempt(蔑视), fear, disgust(厌恶), happiness, sadness and surprise. While we all search for happiness and fulfillment(成就感), we still often end up with bad feelings.‎ Helping yourself is the best thing to do if you’re feeling low, yet it may be the hardest thing for anyone in this situation to actually do. The basics of life can easily be forgotten. You may not sleep well, feel very tired, lose interest in activities, or do poorly in schoolwork.‎ ‎ Here are some tips to help you defeat your low feelings. ‎ Talk with someone This is the obvious answer, but that’s only because it works. When you talk about your feelings and someone you respect understands how you feel, it starts you on the path to healing. It also helps you to see yourself in less limiting ways, so you can get back to being who you want to be. Get out of the house Getting out can be hard if you feel like you don’t want to be around people. That’s OK for now, but at least make yourself walk to a spot with a nice view or a place that brings you some peace. A change of scenery and fresh air will help you heal. Eat your favorite food Don’t overdo it, but allow yourself to eat whatever foods you love. Maybe the foods you love are actually good for you. Certain foods that include something special like fresh peach, dark chocolate can make you feel happier. They have also been proved to help fight low moods. Watch a comedy Someone once cured himself of a serious illness by laughing at old movies. I know when you’re in a low mood, you may not want to make yourself laugh. But the cycle of sadness must be broken so you can get back to your normal life, and this is a very easy way to start. Smile Look at yourself in the mirror and see the difference between when you express your sadness and when you smile. The act of smiling actually releases chemicals(化学物质) in your brain that make you want to smile more and make you feel better. Practice at home first, and then go to a public place and wear that smile. People will smile back, and that will make you feel happier. You can’t do everything on this list at once, so try one or two ideas, and see what works for you. If the results are positive, then try another. The idea here is to make your life better, and no one can do that but you. Please give it a chance. You’d be surprised at how easy it is to feel better when you do things to help yourself heal.‎ The 56 of bad feelings l Have difficulty sleeping well.‎ l Feel tired.‎ l Lose interest in activities.‎ l Be 57 at schoolwork.‎ Some tips to defeat your low feelings Talk with someone l ‎ 58 your feelings with someone may help you heal.‎ l Seeing yourself in less limiting ways can also be helpful. ‎ Get out of the house l Going somewhere with nice views can help you 59 down.‎ Eat food you like 60 ‎ l Any food, 61 something special can cheer you up.

The parents told the BBC they were not aware of a rule which says they would be held responsible for a 68 a child to drive.‎ This is part of the city’s f 69 to reduce underage driving, police said.‎ ‎“I was unaware of underage driving rule. My 17-year-old son took his bike to go for his tutorial. And we were s 70 to prison,” said Shakeel Ahmed.‎ A senior police officer said he hoped spending a day or two in jail would make parents to think t 71 before letting children use their vehicles.‎ ‎“In the l 72 two months, four children died in the city because they were driving vehicles. To s 73 similar cases, we have charged over 1,000 people for underage driving,” a senior police officer told the BBC.‎ A 74 city in southern India, Bangalore, also tried to promote(促进) safe driving on its roads last year.‎ The city’s police tracked down five teenagers who performed risky stunts on the road. Since they were under 18 years old, the police arrested their parents i 75 .‎ Road accidents are common in India, often due to poor driving or badly maintained roads and vehicles.
