The general principle that establishes who has the right to go first is called “right of way”, or “priority”. It determines who has the right to use the conflicting part of the road and who has to wait. Signs, signals, markings and other features are often used to make priority clear.‎ A driver must yield (让) the right of way to other drivers:‎ ‎● When approaching a YIELD sign. Slow down or stop to avoid a crash.‎ ‎● Even after the light turns green when there are vehicles in the intersection.‎ ‎● When approaching emergency vehicles using sounding or flashing sirens.‎ ‎● After coming to a complete stop at an intersection where there is a stop sign or a flashing red signal. If there is no stop line, stop before the crosswalk.‎ ‎● When making a left turn on a red light after a stop from a one-way street to another one-way street with traffic moving to the left. (See Figure A.)‎ ‎● When two vehicles on different roadways arrive at a four-way stop intersection at the same time, the vehicle should yield to the vehicle on its right. (See Figure B.)‎ ‎● When coming out of an alley, building, private road or driveway after coming to a complete stop. (See Figure C.)‎ ‎● When crossing traffic at the end of a “T” road with no traffic control signs or signals. (See Figure D.)‎ ‎21.What’s the purpose of the text?‎ A. To explain the law of right of way.‎ B. To illustrate traffic signs and signals.‎ C. To inform drivers of general traffic rules.‎ D. To introduce traffic rules to pedestrians.‎ ‎22.Which is the right behavior according to the text?‎ A. Drive‎ on once the light turns green.‎ B. Keep driving if there is no stop line.‎ C. Yield to emergency vehicles at any time.‎ D. Slow down when approaching a YIELD sign.‎ ‎23.Which of the following description is TRUE according to the figures?‎ A. Figure A: B should yield to A.‎ B. Figure B: A should yield to B.‎ C. Figure C: A should yield to B.‎ D. Figure D: A should yield to B.‎ B ‎ Can you trust your very first childhood memories? Maybe not, a new study suggests.‎ Past researches show that people's earliest memories typically form around 3 to 3. 5 years of age. But in a recent survey of more than 6,600 people, British scientists have found that 39 percent of participants claimed to have memories from age 2 or younger. These first memories are likely false, the researchers said. This was particularly the case for middle -aged and older adults.‎ For the study, researchers asked participants to describe their first memory and the age at which it occurred. Participants were told they had to be sure the memory was the one that had happened. For example, it shouldn't be based on a photograph, a family story or any source other than direct experiences. Then the researchers examined the content, language and descriptive details of these earliest memories and worked out the likely reasons why people would claim to have memories from an age when memories cannot form.‎ As many of these memories dated before the age of 2, this suggests they were not based on actual facts, but facts or knowledge about their babyhood or childhood from photographs or family stories. Often these false memories are fired by a part of an ‎ early experience, such as family relationships or feeling sad, the researchers explained.‎ ‎"We suggest that what a rememberer has in mind when recalling fictional early memories is …a mental representation consisting of remembered pieces of early experiences and some facts or knowledge about their own babyhood or childhood, " study author Shania Kantar said in a journal news release, "Additionally, further details may be unconsciously inferred or added. Such memory-like mental representations come~ over time, to be collectively experienced when they come to mind, so for the individual, they quite simply are memories, which particularly point to babyhood. "‎ ‎"Importantly, the person remembering them doesn't know this is fictional," study co-author Martin Conway said "In fact, when people are told that their memories are false they often don't believe it. "‎ ‎24.What can we learn from a recent study?‎ A. Memories form after the age of 3. B. Participants are good at telling stories C. Adults are likely to form false memories D. Earliest memories may play a trick on us ‎25.Which source did the researchers require for the earliest memories?‎ A. A direct experience. B. A family story.‎ C. A family photo. D. A sad feeling.‎ ‎26.What are these fictional early memories according to Kantar?‎ A. They are repeated mental representations.‎ B. They are a collection of early experiences.‎ C. They are a combination of both facts and fictions.‎ D. They are further details of remembered experiences.‎ ‎27.Which part of a newspaper is this text probably taken from?‎ A. Society. B. Psychology. C. Technology. D. Health.‎ C ‎ It is with mixed emotions that I went to the young criminal center every few ‎ months to give vaccinations (接种疫苗). On the one hand, I feel lucky to be able to provide a service that may have a positive health effect on the residents. But, on the other hand, I feel a sense of sadness and disappointment as I see the prisoners being escorted (押送) by guards to the nursing unit.‎ My last visit was very memorable. For some reason, there was a lightness in the air. More than ever before, I felt a lightness as I spoke with each person. We shared stories and smiles and fears. Even the toughest prisoners seemed to be surrounded by light. As a mother, I saw them as not only youth, being punished for crimes, but also as children who have the potential to change for the better. Most of them wanted to talk longer! They were reaching out to us! It felt right.‎ There was one more prisoner. He was limited to a different unit in a lonely cell. We were asked if we were okay going down there. We said that we were. Two guards escorted us down and when we entered the area, instant tears welled up in my eyes. The area was sad. These guards didn’t smile. We entered the cell and had to make do with what was there.‎ We were done but I didn’t want to leave. I gave the 17 year old a gentle touch and smile as I explained what to do regarding the side effects. At first, there was no response, so I just looked down at his bare feet and then to my supplies. I thought that I had better pack up. Suddenly, he looked up at me and smiled before he said “Thanks” and then he gave me a thumbs-up. I smiled back and said, “You’re welcome. Take care of yourself.”‎ It was wonderful to receive a kind response from someone who was in such a harsh place. As we walked back to the main entrance, we didn’t speak. Where there can be a smile, there is hope. Sometimes smiles can be very powerful.‎ ‎28.What can we know about the young in the young criminal center?‎ A. They received regular medical service.‎ B. They were treated unfairly.‎ C. They stayed in bad conditions.‎ D. They were forced to take treatment.‎ ‎29.What was special about the center the last time the author went there?‎ A. She was asked to share stories. B. Every prisoner was kind to her.‎ C. The young people talked freely. D. She sensed a relaxing atmosphere.‎ ‎30.What did the young man think of the author?‎ A. He disliked her for her sympathy.‎ B. He really appreciated her kindness.‎ C. He thought she would change his life.‎ D. He thought she was just an ordinary doctor.‎ ‎31.What impressed the author most in this story?‎ A. The young man’s smile.‎ B. The medical care for prisoners.‎ C. The punishment to the prisoners.‎ D. The difference between the young man and others.‎ D ‎ Most children are full of the most impractical schemes for becoming policemen, firemen or train drivers when they grow up. When I was a child, however, I did not have such ordinary ambitions. I was going to have my own zoo.‎ At the time, this did not seem to me, and still does not seem, an unreasonable idea. My friends and relatives, who had long found me strange because I showed little interest in anything that did not have fur or feathers, accepted this as just another example of my strangeness. They felt that, if they ignored my often-repeated remarks about owning my own zoo, I would eventually grow out if it.‎ As the years passed, however, my determination to have my own zoo grew increasingly strong, and eventually, after going on a number of trips to bring back animals for other zoos, I was ready to start my own.‎ From my latest trip to West Africa, I had brought back a considerable collection and animals which were living, temporarily I assured her, in my sister’s suburban garden in Bournemouth. After a number of unsuccessful attempts to convince the local council to support my plans, I began to investigate the possibility of starting my zoo on the island‎ of ‎Jersey in the English Cannel.‎ I was introduced to a man named Hugh Fraser who, I was told, was a ‎ broad-minded, kindly soul. He would show me around the island and point out suitable sites. So, my wife and I flew to Jersey and were met by Hugh who drove us to his family home, probably one of the most beautiful old houses on the island. There was a huge walled garden with lots of outbuildings all built in the beautiful local stone. Turning to my wife, I said, “What a marvelous place for a zoo!”‎ To my relief, Hugh Fraser did not think my idea absurd, and asked whether I really meant what I said. Slightly embarrassed, I replied that I had meant it, but added hastily that I realized it was impossible. Hugh said he did not think it was as impossible as all that.‎ He went on to explain that the house and grounds were too big for him, and so he wanted to move to a smaller place in England. Would I care to consider renting the property for the purpose of establishing my zoo? I could not imagine more attractive surroundings for my purposes, and by the time lunch was over, the bargain had been sealed.‎ The alarm displayed by all who knew me when this news was announced was intense. The only exception to the general chorus of disapproval was my sister. Although she thought it a mad scheme, at least it would rid her back garden of the assorted jungle creatures who were straining her relationship with her neighbours.‎ ‎32.How did the author’s friends and relatives respond to his childhood dream?‎ A. They approved of his idea.‎ B. They paid no attention to him.‎ C. They believed he’d give it up later on.‎ D. They thought he was overly ambitious.‎ ‎33.What made the author decide to start his zoo on the island‎ of ‎Jersey?‎ A. Refusal by the local council to support his idea.‎ B. Inspiration from his last trip to West Africa.‎ C. Failure to get donation from other zoos.‎ D. The need for a larger suburban garden.‎ ‎34.Why did Hugh eventually agree to rent his property to the author?‎ A. Hugh also loved animals very much.‎ B. Hugh found it hard to manage the property by himself.‎ C. Hugh didn’t like the place so decided to move to England.‎ D. Hugh was moved by the author’s eagerness to establish a zoo.‎ ‎35.What can be inferred about the author’s sister?‎ A. She was fond of chorus.‎ B. She was sure of his success.‎ C. She didn’t get on well with her parents.‎ D. She was being troubled by his animals. ‎ 第二节.七选五 (共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分)‎ 根据短文内容，从短文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。‎ Earworm Most people have had songs stuck in their heads at some point. The scientific name for this is involuntary musical imagery (INMI), which simply means that people do not choose to keep the songs in their heads, but that it happens unconsciously. Experts have nicknamed this condition “earworm,” even though it is not an actual worm, and it does not take place in the ear. 36. It occurs when a catchy tune “sticks” in a person’s mind. What makes a song stick depends on the individual. Some people get stuck on their favorite songs, while others end up fixated on songs they find annoying.‎ ‎37. It can be brought on after recently hearing a song, or it can be triggered by a memory. Although earworm can happen to anyone at any time, certain people are more likely than others to suffer from it. Most commonly, musicians experience it, but people who simply listen to music more frequently than others are also more prone to earworm.‎ No evidence has proven one effective cure, but anything that disturbs the brain can help. 38. For example, actively chewing gum might switch the brain’s focus from the repeating song to the moving jaw. Engaging in a task that requires concentration can remove the pesky earworm as well. However, if the task requires too much effort, it can actually prolong the earworm. 39.‎ While earworm can be very annoying, there is no evidence that suggests it is actually harmful. 40. After all, these songs repeat automatically with no effort. What if science could apply this information to learning? What if everyone could learn new things without having to try so hard? If scientists can figure out how to tap into this type of memory, learning might look different in the future.‎ A. We have a tendency to move to earworms.‎ B. Rather, it takes place in the memory centers of the brain.‎ C. One possibility to help shift the brain is to occupy it with a new activity.‎ D. Nobody knows exactly why a particular song gets caught in a person’s brain.‎ E. This is because the mind tends to wander to escape the difficulty of the job at hand.‎ F. Psychologists have long been looking for ways to turn off those unwelcome thoughts.‎ G. In fact, some experts are studying earworm to see what they can learn about memory centers.‎ 第三部分 英语知识运用（共两节，满分45分）‎ 第一节 完形填空（共20小题，每小题 1.5 分，满分 30 分）‎ 阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的 A、B、C、D 四个选项中，选出可以填入空白 处的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。‎ ‎ When I was a freshman in college, I had some seniors telling me, “You should not really try to get the highest grades.
