His childhood lacked the harmony that was typical of a happy family. Later, Yeats shocked his family by saying that he remembered “little of childhood but its pain”. In fact, he inherited (继承) excellent taste in art from his family—both his father and his brother were painters. But he finally settled on literature, particularly drama and poetry.‎ Yeats had strong faith in the coming of new artistic movements. He set himself the fresh task in founding an Irish national theatre in the late 1890s. His early theatrical experiments, however, were not received favorably at the beginning. He didn’t lose heart, and finally enjoyed success in his poetical drama.‎ Compared with his dramatic works, Yeast’s poems attract much admiring notice. The subject matter includes love, nature, history, time and aging. Though Yeats generally relied on very traditional forms, he brought modern sensibility to them. As his literary life progressed, his poetry grew finer and richer, which led him to worldwide recognition.‎ He had not enjoyed a major public lift since winning the Nobel Prize in 1923. Yet, he continued writing almost to the end of his life. Had Yeats stopped writing at age 40, he would probably now be valued as a minor poet, for there is no other example in literary history of a poet who produces his greatest works between the age of 50 and 75. After Yeast’s death in 1939, W. H. Auden wrote, among others, the following lines:‎ Earth, receive an honoured guest:‎ William Yeats is laid to rest.‎ Let the Irish vessel (船) lie Emptied of its poetry. ‎ ‎24. Which of the following can describe Yeats’s family?‎ A. It filled Yeats’s childhood with laughter. B. It was shocked by Yeats’s choice.‎ C. It was a typically wealthy family. D. It had an artistic atmosphere.‎ ‎25. According to the passage, what do we know about Yeats’s life?‎ A. Yeats founded the first Irish theater.‎ B. Yeats stuck to modern forms in his poetry.‎ C. Yeats began to produce his best works from the 1910s.‎ D. Yeats was not favored by the public until the 1923 Noble Prize.‎ ‎26. What kind of feeling is expressed in W.H.Auden’s lines?‎ A. Envy. B. Sympathy. C. Emptiness. D. Admiration.‎ ‎27. What is the passage mainly about?‎ A. Yeats’s literary achievements. B. Yeats’s historical influence.‎ C. Yeats’s artistic ambition. D. Yeats’s national honor.‎ C Intelligent people are more likely to trust others, while those who score lower on measures of intelligence are less likely to do so. Oxford University researchers based their finding on an analysis of the 'General Social Survey'.‎ The authors say one explanation could be that more intelligent individuals are better at judging characters and may spend more time building relationships with people they can trust. Another reason could be that smarter people are better at weighing up situations and assessing whether or not the other person will hold up his or her end of a bargain.‎ ‎“Intelligence is shown to be linked with trusting others.” said the study's lead author, Noah Carl of Oxford University, “This finding supports what other researchers have argued, namely that being a good judge of character is a distinct part of human intelligence.”‎ In addition, the study shows that individuals who are more trusting are also happier with their lives and had higher levels of physical health. The Oxford researchers found, however, that the ‎ links between trust and health, and between trust and happiness, are not explained by intelligence. The findings confirmed that trust is a valuable resource for an individual, and is not simply a measure of intelligence.‎ The authors say the research is significant because the study of social trust could have far-reaching implications in public welfare, as social trust contributes to the success of important social institutions, such as welfare systems and financial markets.‎ According to Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development, trust is in increasingly short supply in current generation. This decline threatens world leaders’ ability to handle some of today's key challenges like global warming, and the political system. There are good reasons to think that governments should try to develop more trust in society.‎ Distrust usually causes friction in personal relationships, careers and politics among others, says Stephen Covey. Although majority of people say that trust can never be restored once it's broken, Stephen feels it can be brought back. "It's not easy, it takes time, but you do it through your behavior, not just things you say." ‎ ‎28. It can be concluded from the passage that .‎ ‎ A. intelligence accounts for the connection between trust and health ‎ ‎ B. judgment of characters determines the level of intelligence ‎ C. intelligent people spend less time on interpersonal relationship ‎ D. intelligent individuals tend to show more trust in others ‎29. What does the underlined phrase in paragraph 2 probably mean?‎ ‎ A. Make the best of a situation. B. Stick to one's promise as agreed.‎ ‎ C. Figure out the true value of a bargain. D. Make an assessment of a deal.‎ ‎30. According to the research, higher level of social trust is .‎ ‎ A. a basic step to deal with global warming ‎ ‎ B. a decisive basis for stable political system ‎ C. a complete solution to interpersonal conflicts ‎ D. a contributing factor to successful social institutions ‎ ‎31. When it comes to rebuilding trust, Stephen is most likely to agree that .‎ ‎ A. actions always speak louder than words ‎ ‎ B. trust is the proper fruit of knowledge ‎ C. mind is largely determined by behavior ‎ ‎ D. behavior is a mirror to show one’s image D ‎ Almost every day we come across situations in which we have to make decisions one way or another. Choice, we are given to believe, is a right. But for a good many people in the world, in rich and poor countries, choice is a luxury, something wonderful but hard to get, not a right. And for those who think they are exercising their right to make choices, the whole system is merely an illusion, a false idea created by companies and advertisers, hoping to sell their products.‎ ‎ The endless choice gives birth to anxiety in people’s lives. Buying something as basic as a coffee pot is not exactly simple. Easy access to a wide range of everyday goods leads to a sense of powerlessness in many people, ending in the shopper giving up and walking away, or just buying an unsuitable item that is not really wanted. Recent studies in England have shown that many electrical goods bought in almost every family are not really needed. More difficult decision-making is then either avoided or trusted into the hands of the professionals, lifestyle instructors, or advisors.‎ ‎ It is not just the availability of the goods that is the problem, but the speed with which new types of products come on the market. Advances in design and production help quicken the process. Products also need to have a short lifespan so that the public can be persuaded to replace them within a short time. The typical example is computers, which are almost out-of-date once they are bought. This indeed makes selection a problem. Gone are the days when one could just walk with ease into a shop and buy one thing; no choice, no anxiety.‎ ‎32. What does the author try to argue in Paragraph l?‎ ‎ A. The practice of choice is difficult. B. The right of choice is given but at a price.‎ ‎ C. Choice and right exist at the same time. D. The exercise of rights is a luxury.‎ ‎33. Why do more choices of goods give rise to anxiety?‎ ‎ A. People are likely to find themselves overcome by business persuasion.‎ ‎ B. Shoppers may find themselves lost in the broad range of items.‎ ‎ C. Companies and advertisers are often misleading about the range of choice.‎ ‎ D. Professionals find it hard to decide on a suitable product.‎ ‎34. By using computers as an example, the author wants to prove that___________.‎ ‎ A. products of the latest design flood the market ‎ B. competitions are fierce in high-tech industry ‎ C. everyday goods need to be replaced often ‎ D. advanced products meet the needs of people ‎35. What is this passage mainly about?‎ ‎ A. The opinions on people's right in different countries.‎ ‎ B. The problems about the availability of everyday goods.‎ ‎ C. The helplessness in purchasing decisions.‎ ‎ D. The variety of choices in modern society.‎ E 第二节（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。‎ Do you have a spare room in your house? Do you like to share your driveway in front of your garage with others? 36   Many people are benefiting from this new business of renting.‎ Perhaps the best-known example of a company in this field is Airbnb―an American Web business which allows you to rent out your spare room to holidaymakers. It says it operates in 34,000 cities and it has 800,000 listings of rooms and apartments.   37 ‎ ‎   A British company is doing something with parking spaces. JustPark's founder, Anthony Eskinazi, says, "When I had the original idea, I spotted a driveway close to a sports stadium. It would have been so convenient if I could have just parked in that driveway rather than in a commercial car park."   38  Around 20, 000 people have advertised their spaces on the website and he says around half a million drivers use it.    39    They are people who run things like traditional hotels and commercial car parks. They are afraid of ending up losing money.‎ ‎ And there is another problem. Regulations for the new business are still unclear. 40   Because this is a new business world, those rules about appropriate manners aren't there yet.‎ ‎ A. And his great idea has proved a success.‎ ‎ B. Both of these can help you make money.‎ ‎ C. A rewarding thing is that you get to meet interesting guests.‎ ‎ D. They seem to have occupied the majority of the market.‎ ‎ E. How will renting out your driveway affect your neighbours? ‎ ‎ F. But the new business of renting does have its competitors.‎ ‎ G. Share your driveway with people looking for parking in your area.‎ 第三部分　语言知识运用(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)‎ Time talks. It speaks more plainly than words. Time 41   in many ways. ‎ Consider the different parts of the day, for example. The time of the day when something is done can give a 42 meaning to the event. It is not a 43   to telephone someone very early in the morning. If you telephone him early in the day, 44   he is probably shaving or having breakfast, the time of the call shows that something is urgent and 45 immediate attention. ‎ The same meaning is 46 telephone calls made after 11: 00 p.m. If someone receives a call during sleeping hours, he may think it is a 47 of life or death. The time chosen for the call 48 its importance. ‎ In social life, time plays a very 49 part. In the United States, guests tend to feel they are not highly regarded if the 50 to a dinner party is extended only three or four days before the party date. But this is not 51 in all countries. In other areas of the world, it may be considered foolish to make an appointment too far 52 because plans which are made for a date more than a week away tend to be 53 . ‎ The meaning of time 54 from place to place in the world. 55 , misunderstandings often arise between people from different cultures that 56 time differently. For example, promptness(及时) is 57 greatly in American life. If people are not prompt, they may be regarded as 58 or not fully responsible. In the US, no one would think of keeping a business associate 59 for an hour; it would be too rude. A person who is five minutes late is 60 to make a short apology.‎ ‎41.
