It is located on the southern slope of Mount Hollywood in Griffith‎ ‎Park at 1,134 feet above sea level.‎ ‎ Visitors may drive to the observatory and park in its parking lot or on nearby roads. No reservation is required to visit. Parking is limited，and the busiest time is weekends. Buses, taxis, and car pools are welcome. It provides weekend public bus service from the Sunset/Vermont Metro Red Line Station.‎ ‎ Griffith Observatory is open six days a week. Admission and parking are free.‎ ‎ Hours of Operation ‎ Tuesday—Friday ‎12 noon—10 p.m.‎ ‎ Saturday—Sunday ‎10 a.m.—10 p.m.‎ ‎ Monday ‎ Closed ‎ Thanksgiving Day and Christmas Day Closed ‎ Samuel Oschin Planetarium ‎ The Samuel Oschin Planetarium theater offers 8 to 10 live, half-hour presentations each day. There are usually four different shows from which to choose.‎ ‎ Shows are presented every 60 to 90 minutes. Check the website，information desks，or the box office for each day’s show time. Being seated late is not permitted.‎ ‎ Samuel Oschin Planetarium tickets must be purchased at the observatory and are only available on the day of the show. The ticket prices for shows are：‎ ‎ Adults (13—59 years old)‎ ‎ $7.00‎ ‎ Children (5—12 years old) ‎ ‎ $3.00‎ ‎ Seniors (60 years and older)‎ ‎ $5.00‎ ‎ Students ‎ $5.00‎ ‎ Children under 5 years old will be admitted only to the first show each day.‎ ‎ Hearing assist devices are available on request.‎ ‎ Public Telescopes ‎ Free public telescopes are available each evening the observatory is open and skies are clear. The Zeiss telescope on the roof is generally open by 7 p.m. All observing must be completed by 9:45 p.m. ‎ ‎21. What can we learn about Griffith Observatory according to the passage? ‎ ‎ A. It is open all the year around.‎ ‎ B. It is mostly visited at weekends.‎ ‎ C. It becomes famous because of Hollywood.‎ ‎ D. It is the most attractive place in Los Angeles.‎ ‎22.

Which of the following is charged? ‎ ‎ A. Parking.‎ ‎ B. Telescopes.‎ ‎ C. Hearing assist devices.‎ ‎ D. Watching presentations.‎ - 12 -‎ B ‎ Meeting people from another culture can be difficult. From the beginning, people may send the wrong signal. Or they may pay no attention to signals from another person who is trying to develop a relationship.‎ ‎ Different cultures stress the importance of relationship building to a greater or lesser degree. For example, business in some countries is not possible until there is a relationship of trust. Even with people at work, it is necessary to spend a lot of time in “small talk”, usually over a glass of tea, before they do any job. In many European countries, like the UK or France, people find it easier to build up a lasting working relationship at restaurants or cafe rather than at the office.‎ ‎ Talk and silence may also be different in some cultures. I once made a speech in Thailand. I had expected my speech to be a success and start a lively discussion, instead there was an uncomfortable silence. The people present just stared at me and smiled. After getting to know their ways better, I realized that they thought I was talking too much. In my own culture, we express meaning mainly through words, but people there sometimes feel too many words are unnecessary.‎ ‎ Even within Northern Europe, cultural differences can cause serious problems. Certainly, English and German cultures share similar values, however, Germans prefer to get down to business more quickly. We think that they are rude. In fact, this is just because one culture starts discussions and makes decisions more quickly.‎ ‎ People from different parts of the world have different values, and sometimes these values are quite against each other. However, if we can understand them better, a multicultural environment will offer a wonderful chance for us to learn from each other. ‎ ‎24. What’s the probable meaning of the underlined word “stress”? ‎ ‎ A. To draw special attention to.‎ ‎ B. To ignore.‎ ‎ C. To laugh at.‎ ‎ D. To get close to.‎ ‎25. The author mentions his experience in Thailand to show that ________. ‎ ‎ A. the English prefer to make long speeches ‎ B. too many words are of no use ‎ C. people from Thailand are quiet and shy by nature ‎ D. even talk and silence can be culturally different ‎26. According to the text, how can people from different cultures understand each ‎ other better? ‎ ‎ A. By sharing different ways of life.      ‎ ‎ B. By accepting different habits.‎ ‎ C. By recognizing different values.       ‎ ‎ D. By speaking each other’s languages.‎ ‎27. What would be the best title for the text? ‎ ‎ A. Multicultural Environment              ‎ ‎ B. Cross-Cultural Differences ‎ C. How to Understand Each Other      ‎ ‎ D. How to Build Up a Relationship C - 12 -‎ ‎ Fei-Fei Li arrived in the U. S.‎ from China at age 16 with many big dreams. And it took many unusual jobs to help her achieve them. Luckily, she was smart and extremely driven. And today, she’s the director of Stanford‎ ‎University’s artificial intelligence lab.‎ ‎ “As one of the leaders in the world for A. L., I feel much excitement and responsibility to create the most awesome and excellent technology for society and to educate the most awesome and excellent technologists—that’s my calling.” Li said.‎ ‎ She is also a loyal advocate for diversity in the tech industry.‎ ‎ “I see extremely talented Stanford PhD students struggling with their visas and I find it unthinkable that we create so many barriers for the talents of the world”, Li said. While Li was in college at Princeton, she borrowed money from friends and even her high school math teacher to run a dry-cleaning business for her parents in order to help them get by. Li attended classes during the week and worked at the business on the weekends. Then, when Li was in graduate school, her mom developed cancer and had a stroke (中风). “It was difficult to keep moving ahead while all of this was happening. The real existential challenge is to live up to your fullest potential, live up to your sense of responsibility and to be honest to yourself about your dreams while doing it,” she said.‎ ‎ Li was named a Great Immigrant of 2016 by the Carnegie Corporation, the nation’s oldest grant making foundation which honors roughly 40 naturalized U. S. citizens each year. Her graduate studies were supported by the Paul & Daisy Soros Fellowships for New Americans.‎ ‎28. What do we know about Fei-Fei Li according to Paragraph 1?‎ ‎ A. She was born in the United States of America.‎ ‎ B. She has made many of her dreams come true.‎ ‎ C. She worked very hard because she’s not gifted.‎ ‎ D. She’s now doing researches on AI in China.‎ ‎29. What does the underlined word “calling” in Paragraph 2 refer to?‎ ‎ A. Interest in technology.‎ B. Desire to help.‎ ‎ C. Creativity in science.‎ D. Sense of duty.‎ ‎30. What was Fei-Fei Li’s life like before she graduated from university?  ‎ ‎ A. She had been struggling with her visa.‎ ‎ B. Both her parents suffered from illness.‎ ‎ C. Her family was faced with a tight budget.‎ ‎ D. It was difficult for her to attend classes.‎ ‎31. Fei-Fei Li has achieved success because ________.‎ ‎ A. her awareness of her duty and goals made a difference ‎ B. an American foundation gave her support ‎ C. the Carnegie Corporation named her a Great Immigrant ‎ D. she was lucky enough to borrow money from others D ‎ Could the device, smartphone or PC, which you are using affect the moral decisions you make when using it? To test it, researchers presented multiple dilemmas to a sample - 12 -‎ ‎ set of 1,010 people. The participants were assigned a device at random.‎ ‎ One case of the questions participants were asked is the classic “trolley(有轨电车) problem”: A runaway trolley is headed towards five people tied up on a set of train tracks. You can do nothing, resulting in the deaths of five people, or push a man off a bridge, which will stop the trolley. The practical response is to kill one man to save five lives, which 33.5 percent of smartphone users chose, compared to 22.3 percent of PC users.‎ ‎ “What we found in our study is that when people used a smartphone to view classic moral problems, they were more likely to make more unemotional, reasonable decisions when presented with a highly emotional dilemma, “Dr Albert Barque-Duran, the lead author of the study, told City, University of London. “This could be due to the increased time pressure often present with smartphones and also the increased psychological distance which can occur when we use such devices compared to PCs.”‎ ‎ As for why the researchers started this study, Dr Barque-Duran noted, “Due to the fact that our social lives, work and even shopping take place online, it is important to think about how the contexts where we typically face moral decisions and are asked to engage in moral behavior have changed, and the impact this could have on the hundreds of millions of people who use such devices daily”. It’s clear that we need more research on how our devices affect our moral decision making because we’re using screens at an ever increasing rate.‎ ‎32. Why did the author mention the trolley problem?‎ ‎ A. To introduce a difficult problem to readers.‎ ‎ B. To introduce the aim of carrying out the study.‎ ‎ C. To show an example of the questions in the study.‎ ‎ D. To show the difficulty in dealing with dilemmas.‎ ‎33. How do the smartphone users of the study behave in dealing with emotional dilemmas?‎ ‎ A. Calmly.‎ B. Cruelly.‎ ‎ C. Hesitantly.‎ D. Enthusiastically.‎ ‎34. Dr Albert believes that compared with PCs, smartphones ________.    ‎ ‎ A. help people bear more pressure ‎ B. help people make decisions quickly ‎ C. make people feel more mentally distant ‎ D. make people stay happier to solve problems ‎ ‎35. What can we infer from the text?‎ ‎ A. Shopping online has a great effect on making moral decisions.‎ ‎ B. The people using smartphones are more than those using PCs.‎ ‎ C. People who often use smartphones or PCs always meet with dilemmas.‎ ‎ D. It is common for people to be involved in making moral decisions in daily life.‎ 第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）‎ 阅读下面的文章，从文章后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。‎ ‎ Perhaps you have heard the expression “When in Rome, do as the Romans do”. So when you want to do - 12 -‎ ‎ business in France, you have to get to know French culture, make marketing plans, and run your business by local laws.‎ ‎ 36 .The French take great pride in their language, so anyone who does not speak it may run the risk of being disrespected by his French colleagues or business partners. Also, another reason why learning French is important is that it is a great way to show every possible French business partner that you care and respect their country’s culture and language. ‎ ‎ The first thing that you should do when meeting someone new is to shake his hand firmly and always look at the person in the eye. In social meetings with friends, kissing is common.‎ ‎ Use first names only after being invited to. 37 .
