I say those things to people all the time, so why am I telling you now that sometimes it is actually better to quit? The reason is that in certain cases, you could only go forward if you go back.‎ Sometimes you will be putting a lot of time and effort in achieving a goal to find out one day that your strategy is totally wrong. You could be achieving the same results in half the time had you been focusing on doing the more important things.‎ Let’s say your goal was to lose weight. You then set a goal to do 1000 sit-ups a day. After about 1 month of doing this, you realize that you have been disciplined enough to hit your goal of 1000 sit-ups a day, however, you aren’t getting any closer to your main goal of losing weight. This is called focusing on a secondary goal, which sometimes is the wrong strategy.‎ We sometimes get so focused on a secondary goal that we lose focus on the primary goal. I see this with sales people all the time. Their main goal is to make money but they often find their focus on hitting some new position within the sales department and when that doesn’t happen, they feel like a big failure. The goal never was to hit some position; the goal was to make money whether with this company or another company.‎ Would it make sense, in this case, for a sales person to quit the job if his goal of making a certain amount of money just wasn’t happening? His managers would probably call him a quitter, but his goal is to make money. If he can obtain that goal through a different source, then quitting would actually be the smart thing to do.‎ So when is it time to give up? When what you are doing no longer makes sense in respects to achieving your main goal. Sometimes it will make more sense to give up what you are doing and start on a different path towards the same goal.‎ Some people will spend their entire lives on a path to a certain goal only to find out in the end that the path they took was the wrong one. There is no shame in giving up on a path you are taking to your goal as long as you always aim to reach your goal. There’s no point in staying on a path that will lead you to nowhere.‎ ‎38．Why does the author advocate giving up?‎ A． Because giving up halfway will save half the time.‎ B． Because perseverance does not work in most cases.‎ C． Because sometimes people adopt wrong strategies.‎ D． Because no one can achieve success without hard work.‎ ‎39．Which of the following is a secondary goal in the case of sales people?‎ A． To gain recognition from their boss.‎ B． To make money in the present company.‎ C． To work for other better companies.‎ D． To get promoted in the sales department.‎ ‎40．What is the author’s attitude towards giving up?‎ A． One should devote his whole life to one goal rather than give up.‎ B． One should not regret giving up if he finds he is on a wrong path.‎ C． One always needs to stick to the same strategy to achieve his goal.‎ D． One should focus on primary and secondary goals before he quits.‎ ‎【答案】‎ ‎38．C ‎39．D ‎40．B ‎【解析】本文是一篇议论文。论述的是关于“放弃”。当你要放弃的时候，相信你已经被告知，为了成功，你必须坚持战斗，无论何时跌倒，都要站起来，直到最后。如果他发现自己走错了路，就不应该后悔放弃。‎ ‎38．细节理解题。根据第二段Sometimes you will be putting a lot of time and effort in achieving a goal to find out one day that your strategy is totally wrong. You could be achieving the same results in half the time had you been focusing on doing the more important things.可知，作者支持放弃是因为有时候人们会采取错误的策略。故选C。‎ ‎39．细节理解题。根据第四段中Their main goal is to make money but they often find their focus on hitting some new position within the sales department and when that doesn’t happen, they feel like a big failure.可知，在销售人员的情况下在销售部门得到提升是次要目标。故选D。‎ ‎40．推理判断题。根据最后一段中There is no shame in giving up on a path you are taking to your goal as long as you always aim to reach your goal. There’s no point in staying on a path that will lead you to nowhere.可知，作者对放弃的态度是“如果他发现自己走错了路，就不应该后悔放弃。”故选B。‎ One of the newest words on the coffee stage is “shade grown coffee”. Shade grown coffee isn’t new. In fact, until only a few years ago, shade grown coffee represented the major coffee beans sold on the world coffee market. The coffee plant is a natural shade lover, growing best in the shade afforded by an overgrowing canopy (树冠) of rain forest plants. That canopy protects the coffee plant from sunlight that reduces its production and kills it.‎ Shade grown coffee is, however, more expensive to grow, at least in the short run. Growing ‎ coffee in the shade means that coffee growers also have to spend time working on the protectors. It means that less land is left to produce coffee beans. The arrival of technically engineered coffee plants that grow well in the sun represented a major development in coffee industry. Because there was no need to grow shade trees to protect the coffee trees, farmers could use more and more land to grow coffee trees, increasing their productivity and leading to more money for the coffee plantations (种植园) and farmers.‎ However, it was not a good idea to move away from shade grown coffee. The sheltering canopy provided more than just shade for the coffee trees. Those plants provided shelter for birds and other animals who feed on pests.‎ They help to fix nitrogen in the soil, and nitrogen is a natural fertilizer which makes plants grow more successfully. The increase in land used to grow sun loving coffee trees also had an unexpected effect on the law of supply and demand. The increased production resulted in a huge amount of coffee beans coming to the market, which brought down prices.‎ Moreover, most experts agree that shade grown coffee is better in taste than coffee grown in full sun. Plants grown in shade take longer to develop. The slower growing time helps to improve the coffee’s taste. You can buy a can of shade grown coffee to replace your usual sun coffee. One cup of coffee a day---it’s a small price to pay for a better world.‎ ‎41．What do we know about shade grown coffee?‎ A． It has been introduced to the market recently.‎ B． It was the main coffee beans sold on the market.‎ C． It is protected by the canopy from pests and animals.‎ D． It grows well where there is adequate natural sunlight.‎ ‎42．Why did farmers move away from shade grown coffee?‎ A． It had a bitter taste.‎ B． It left no land for shade trees.‎ C． It offered less profits.‎ D． It’s no longer well received.‎ ‎43．What is an advantage of sheltering plants?‎ A． They keep a balanced environment.‎ B． They bring more money to farmers.‎ C． They help clear the nitrogen in the soil.‎ D． They make coffee plants grow quickly.‎ ‎44．What does the author suggest?‎ A． Spending less on coffee. B． Listening to experts’ ideas.‎ C． Buying shade grown coffee. D． Planting sun loving coffee.‎ ‎【答案】‎ ‎41．B ‎42．C ‎43．A ‎44．C ‎【解析】本文介绍遮蔽种植咖啡。作者建议购买这样的咖啡。‎ ‎41．细节理解题。根据第一段中In fact, until only a few years ago, shade grown coffee represented the major coffee beans sold on the world coffee market.可知，关于遮蔽种植咖啡，我们知道这是市场上销售的主要咖啡豆。故选B。‎ ‎42．推理判断题。根据第二段中Shade grown coffee is, however, more expensive to grow, at least in the short run. Growing coffee in the shade means that coffee growers also have to spend time working on the protectors. It means that less land is left to produce coffee beans.可知，农民要离开遮蔽种植咖啡是因为它提供更少的利润。故选C。‎ ‎43．细节理解题。根据第三段中The sheltering canopy provided more than just shade for the coffee trees. Those plants provided shelter for birds and other animals who feed on pests.可知，保护植物的优势是他们保持一个平衡的环境。故选A。‎ ‎44．推理判断题。根据最后一段中The slower growing time helps to improve the coffee’s taste. You can buy a can of shade grown coffee to replace your usual sun coffee. One cup of coffee a day---it’s a small price to pay for a better world.可知，作者建议购买遮蔽种植咖啡。故选C。‎ ‎【点睛】‎ 做推理判断题时，对于暗含在文章中的人物的行为动机、事件的因果关系及作者未言明的倾向、意图、态度、观点等要进行合乎逻辑的判断、推理、分析，进一步增强理解能力，抓住材料实质性的东西。本题第4小题，根据最后一段中The slower growing time helps to improve the coffee’s taste. You can buy a can of shade grown coffee to replace your usual sun coffee. One cup of coffee a day---it’s a small price to pay for a better world.可知，作者建议购买遮蔽种植咖啡。‎ Like many sensitive souls, I never truly felt like a child. I was the oldest child of three and one ‎ of my nicknames as a child was “Little Mother” because I got great joy from taking care of my younger siblings (兄弟姊妹). I truly believe that the adults around me thought that I was a child that didn’t seem to need physical affection. There was generally a lot of verbal affection but very little hugging pulling me onto their lap, rubbing my back when I couldn’t sleep and other forms of physical comfort. I used to have a strong desire for that touch so very much but did not have the confidence to say so. Even though I had truly wonderful parents, family and friends, I remember a distinct hunger for human touch from a very early age.‎ When my first child was born, I remember never wanting to put him down. Grandparents, friends and even strangers at the grocery store would warn me about “spoiling him by holding him too much,” I would smile and nod but ignore this advice, as well-intentioned as it was. I held each of my three children as often as I could, enjoying the quickly-passing experiences of breastfeeding them, snuggling (依偎) their little heads into the crook of my neck and rocking them gently to sleep. There was joy in work of motherhood, the like of which I had never experienced before. There was joy even in the bleary-eyed (睡眼惺松的）nights, in the crying fits of late evening, in the ever-present bouts of illness that rocked this house as it spread person to person. The joy was in the togetherness, the love, the snuggles amidst the struggles of life that did not always have joy outside of these precious moments.‎ When I was in nursing school, an instructor once told me about the importance of non-contingent touch---touch that isn’t secondary to something like an assessment or treatment. She reminded us that not everyone has love in their lives and that love is essential for healing and growth. The easiest way to show love is often with a simple hand on the shoulder, holding hands with a frightened client, sitting next to them on their bed while chatting with them so they can see that you are not hurried and are present in the moment.‎ I believe that non-contingent touch is just as important, or maybe even more important, in parenting. We touch our children when helping them bathe, dress and many other ways during our busy days. However, we mustn’t forget the importance of hugs, snuggles, pats on the backs, the rubbing of hair throughout the day. Touch is one of the most important languages of love.‎ One of the most important surprises of parenthood for me was that the physical time spent with my children satiated not only their need for love but also my own hunger for human touch. In loving them, I was loved. In holding them, I was held. In raising them, I rose up.‎ We have become a disconnected society. We often connect more with others via social media、e-mail and text than face-to-face. Our younger generation seems lost in the technological void ‎ and they often struggle with even the simplest of in-person communication. We must teach our children the powers of touch, kindness of words and connection with ourselves that cannot happen if we have a blue screen perpetually in front of our face.‎ We are powerful beings, we humans. As parents we can provide power for our children with our words and with our touch. May we teach our children the significance of small kind gestures, simple human touch and connecting with humanity on a personal level. May we reach out to another person as often as we reach out for the smartphone in our pockets.‎ ‎45．From the first paragraph we can know that the author .‎ A． hated being nicknamed “Little Mother”‎ B． was desperate for touch in her childhood C． enjoyed verbal affection from her parents D． had little affection for her parents for lack of touch ‎46．What did the author do in the work of motherhood?‎ A． She avoided holding his son too much not to spoil him.‎ B． She always gave them various forms of physical comfort.‎ C． She had to cheer herself up in the struggles of life.‎ D． She had a painful experience raising her children.‎ ‎47．The most important lesson the author got in nursing school is that .‎ A． everyone needs love to survive B． love is fundamental to all professions C． love functions as a cure for all diseases D． physical touch is the easiest way to show love ‎48．What does the underlined word “satiated” in Paragraph 5 mean?‎ A． satisfied B． removed C． showed D． reduced ‎49．The last two Paragraphs arc intended to .‎ A． advise readers to rid themselves of digital devices B． warn readers of the harmful effects of loss of touch C． emphasize the effectiveness of face-to-face communication D． stress the need to educate children on the importance of touch ‎50．What might be the best title of the passage?‎ A． The Parenting Styles of Elder Generations B． The Addictive Nature of Electronic Devices C． Parenting and the Simple Power of Touch D． The Bitter-Sweet Memories of My Childhood ‎【答案】‎ ‎45．B ‎46．B ‎47．D ‎48．A ‎49．D ‎50．C ‎【解析】本文讲述的是养育和简单的触摸能力。‎ ‎45．细节理解题。根据第一段中I used to have a strong desire for that touch so very much but did not have the confidence to say so.

The number of college graduates in China has been rising since 2001, which leads to a more competitive employment market.‎ However, besides fierce competition, many graduates admit that they face another big problem-employment discrimination. A research in 2017 shows that around 75.7 percent of new graduates said they were, to some extent, discriminated or suffered from injustice when finding jobs.‎ Female college graduates still face great wall of discrimination in the employment market. “Males only”, “Married with children preferred”: These are some of the conditions commonly found in recruitment (招募) advertisements. According to a research by Renmin University of China in 2015, male college graduates do have more interview opportunities than female college graduates despite the similar academic background and work experience.‎ Regional discrimination also becomes a barrier for job seekers. Some companies dismiss job seekers from specific regions due to the regional stereotypes (成见), like “Central China’s Henan Province is the cradle of liars” and “people from Northeast region are usually rude.”‎ Recruitment advertisements sometimes also show favor for local applicants. Non-locals had been denied jobs because their registered residence origin was not the same as the city where they were hunting for a job.‎ Apart from “invisible thresholds (门槛)” like gender and region, college graduates in recent years were disappointed to find that personal details like superstitions (迷信) about blood type, zodiac, and facial structure were all part of the decision-making process by some potential employers.‎ An applicant’s surname can also help or hamper (妨碍) job prospects. A family name that suggests prosperity, like Jin, which means “gold”; while a last name like Pei, which can mean ‎ “to lose money”, would likely be negative. Besides, job seekers also found that some employers paid much attention to their appearance rather than the working performance.‎ To fight against employment discrimination, both the government and society have made great efforts. In 2007, Employment Promotion Law was passed with the purpose of apposing employment discrimination and promoting justice in job recruitment.‎ The Ministry of Education in 2017 issued regulations to ban work discrimination in on-campus job fairs. This year, several cities, bureau of human resources required job fair organizers to set special reception desks so as to deal with job seekers, complaints about discrimination.‎ Non-profit organizations were established to oppose work discrimination, while legal aids were also provided to job seekers through social media platforms like Weibo and WeChat.‎ Employment Discrimination Current51．‎ In addition to fierce competition, employment discrimination is another big problem 52． many graduates.‎ Forms of employment discrimination Gender discrimination:‎ Male college graduates are more 53． to land a job than their female counterparts in spite of the similar educational qualifications and relevant job experience.‎ Regional discrimination:‎ ‎• 54． from specific regions like Central China’s Henan Province and Northeast region are excluded from some companies.‎ ‎• Local registered residence origin is a 55． factor in finding a job.‎ Visible thresholds:‎ Greater 56． is attached to personal details and appearance in 57． with the working performance.‎ ‎58． made to fight against employment discrimination ‎• Passing laws to 59． to work discrimination and promote justice in job recruitment;‎ ‎• Issuing regulations to ban employment discrimination in on-campus job fairs;‎ ‎• Setting special reception desks to 60． job seekers’ complaints;‎ ‎• Establishing non-profit organizations to provide legal aids to job seekers through social media platforms.‎ ‎【答案】‎ ‎51．situation ‎52．facing ‎53．likely ‎54．Applicants/Candidates/Job-hunters ‎55．contributing ‎56．importance/significance ‎57．comparison ‎58．Efforts ‎59．object ‎60．handle/address/settle ‎【解析】本文是一篇新闻调查报告。根据教育部的最新统计数据，预计2018年中国大学毕业生的数量将达到创纪录的水平，今年将有820万学生获得学位。自2001年以来，中国大学毕业生的数量一直在上升，这将导致就业市场竞争更加激烈。文章对此现象进行了分析。‎ ‎51．根据第一段China is expected to see a record high number of college graduates in 2018 as around 8.2 million students will obtain their degree this year, according to the latest statistics from Ministry of Education.可知此空是介绍当前的情况，故答案为situation。‎ ‎52．根据第二段第一句However, besides fierce competition, many graduates admit that they face another big problem-employment discrimination.可知，除了激烈的竞争之外，就业歧视是许多毕业生面临的另一个大问题。故答案为facing。‎ ‎53．根据第二段中According to a research by Renmin University of China in 2015, male college graduates do have more interview opportunities than female college graduates despite the similar academic background and work experience.可知，尽管有类似的教育资历和相关的工作经验，但男性大学毕业生比女性毕业生更有可能找到工作。be likely to do sth.很可能做某事，故答案为likely。‎ ‎54．根据第二段中Some companies dismiss job seekers from specific regions due to the regional stereotypes (成见), like “Central China’s Henan Province is the cradle of liars” and “people from Northeast region are usually rude.”可知，来自中国中部河南省和东北地区等特定地区的申请人被排除在一些公司之外。故答案为Applicants/Candidates/Job-hunters。‎ ‎55．根据第二段最后一句Non-locals had been denied jobs because their registered residence origin was not the same as the city where they were hunting for a job.可知，当地注册的居住来源是寻找工作的一个重要因素。故答案为contributing。‎ ‎56．根据第三段中college graduates in recent years were disappointed to find that personal details like superstitions (迷信) about blood type, zodiac, and facial structure were all part of the decision-making process by some potential employers.可知，与工作表现相比，更重要的是个人的细节和外观。故答案为importance/significance。‎ ‎57．根据第三段中college graduates in recent years were disappointed to find that personal details like superstitions (迷信) about blood type, zodiac, and facial structure were all part of the decision-making process by some potential employers.可知，与工作表现相比，更重要的是个人的细节和外观。故答案为comparison。‎ ‎58．根据第五段第一句To fight against employment discrimination, both the government and society have made great efforts.可知，与就业作斗争的努力。故答案为Efforts。‎ ‎59．根据第五段中In 2007, Employment Promotion Law was passed with the purpose of apposing employment discrimination and promoting justice in job recruitment.可知，通过法律反对工作歧视，促进就业公正。故答案为object。‎ ‎60．根据第六段中This year, several cities, bureau of human resources required job fair organizers to set special reception desks so as to deal with job seekers, complaints about discrimination.可知，设置特别接待处处理求职者的投诉。故答案为handle/address/settle。‎ 评卷人 得分 五、读写任务 ‎61．请认真阅读下面有关我国 “全民阅读”的相关文字，并按照要求用英语写一篇150词左右的文章。‎ BEIJING, March 15 (Xinhua) — Premier Li Keqiang on Sunday called on the Chinese people to read more and promised that the policy of encouraging reading will again be part of next year’s government work report.‎ ‎“Reading is what I enjoy the most in my spare time. It makes me feel wealthy, and it has ‎ been the most rewarding experience in my life,” he told reporters after the conclusion of the annual legislative (立法的) session.‎ It is worrisome, however, that the average per capita (人均) amount of reading in China is only one-tenth of that of some other countries in the world, Li said.‎ ‎“I hope that our people could foster a love of reading, and our people’s amount of reading could rise. It is a very important symbol of further cultural and social progress.”‎ Reading can not only unlock potential for innovation, but also enhance civic morality, he said, adding that encouraging reading will be part of next year’s government work report again after featuring it for two consecutive (连续的) years.‎ This year’s government work report, which Li delivered to national lawmakers on March 5, said China will “ensure that more outstanding works of literature and art are created for the people to enjoy, and encourage a love of reading in all people to build a nation of avid readers.”‎ ‎[写作内容]（百强校英语解析团队专供）‎ ‎1. 用约30个单词写出上文概要；‎ ‎2. 用约120个单词发表你的观点，内容包括：‎ ‎(1) 从个人和国家两个层面谈谈推广 “全民阅读”的意义；‎ ‎(2) 你对推广 “全民阅读”的建议（至少两条)。‎ ‎[写作要求]‎ ‎1. 不能直接引用原文语句；‎ ‎2. 作文中不能出现真实姓名和学校名称；‎ ‎3. 不必写标题。‎ ‎[评分标准]‎ 内容完整，语言规范，语篇连贯，词数适当。‎ ‎____________________________________________________________________________________________‎ ‎____________________________________________________________________________________________‎ ‎____________________________________________________________________________________________‎ ‎____________________________________________________________________________________________‎ ‎____________________________________________________________________________________________‎ ‎____________________________________________________________________________________________‎ ‎____________________________________________________________________‎ ‎【答案】Having realized the importance of reading, Chinese government will again include the policy of encouraging reading in the government work report with the intention of building a nation of readers.‎ This policy has a far-reaching influence on both individuals and the nation. On a personal level, reading not only promotes a better understanding of the world and the reader himself, but also facilitates autonomous learning and life-long learning. On a national level, reading enables Chinese people to keep up and spread our culture and traditions so that we can let the world know more about China.‎ To promote the implementation of the policy, the government, organizations and individuals should all be involved. The government is supposed to provide both financial and policy support for the construction of public libraries and other facilities. Organizations should learn more about local people’s reading needs and organize regular reading events. As individuals, we should develop good reading habits. With our j oint efforts, the vision of building a nation of readers will become a reality.‎ ‎【解析】本文是一篇任务型写作。共分两个任务：第一个任务用约30个单词写出上文的概要；第二个任务用约120个单词发表你的观点，内容包括：从个人和国家两个层面谈谈推广 “全民阅读”的意义；你对推广 “全民阅读”的建议（至少两条)。第二部分给出了写作提纲。注意完成第一任务时，语言使用应简练、准确、到位。在第二个任务中，应涵盖题目所列出的两个要点。本文应主要使用一般现在时态。写作过程中注意使用平时学到的短语和句型，注意行文的连贯和逻辑性。‎ ‎【亮点说明】‎ 本文是一篇任务型写作。内容完整，语言规范，语篇连贯，词数适当，文中使用高级句子。Having realized the importance of reading, Chinese government will again include现在分词原因状语；reading not only promotes a better understanding of the world and the reader himself, but also facilitates autonomous learning and life-long learning.动名词做主语；Chinese people to keep up and spread our culture and traditions so that we can let the world know more about China.句中so that引导目的状语从句；To promote the implementation of ‎ the policy, the government, organizations and individuals should all be involved.动词不定式做目的状语。‎
