Our customers had slowly risen from three to thirty a month. We were busy through those hot summer months, driving between visits. Our services were strictly held at the pet owner’s home. It was almost too busy for the two of us, but we were making good money!‎ We asked pet owners new to our services to phone two weeks ahead so we had enough time to meet the owners and pets at their homes and make any following meetings before the owner leaves.‎ One day, we decided to take on a new customer just two days before they would leave. We met the family, filled in a form, and spent some time with their dog, Hercules. He playfully jumped ‎ on us and touched our hands and arms using his tongue. The family laughed as he did this, showing us that he was very loving.‎ Two days later I appeared at the house, alone. I came up to Hercules and said hello happily. I filled up his water bowl and cleaned any messes he made. Meanwhile, he was so lovely sitting beside. I thought this would be the good picture to send to the owners, a usual service. After the light and “click” sound went off, Hercules rushed at me. I didn’t know what had just happened until I noticed the drops of blood. I ran out and did the only thing—calling my husband.‎ Then I went to neighbors for help. My husband arrived after ten minutes. The helpful neighbor and my husband led Hercules back into his pen (圈). Then my husband and I took off to the hospital.‎ I must have looked like I was shot when I walked into the hospital. The nurses quickly moved me to a room. I asked the doctor in a weak but playful manner, “Am I going to die?” He replied, “Finally.”‎ ‎21. According to the text, the author’s work was .‎ ‎ A. tiring and dangerous B. easy and free ‎ C. well paid D. done outdoors ‎22. What did the author often do during her work?‎ ‎ A. Cleaning the customers’ house. B. Walking the pets outside.‎ ‎ C. Bringing the pets to her own house. D. Sending a photo of pets to the owners.‎ ‎23. It can be inferred (推断) from the text that the author was attacked because .‎ ‎ A. Hercules feared the sound and the flash B. the author attacked Hercules first ‎ C. Hercules was very hungry then D. the author treated Hercules badly ‎24. The doctor’s answer gave us a sense of .‎ ‎ A. anger B. humor ‎ C. carelessness D. patience B FroliCat Dart While cats require less attention compared to dogs, that doesn’t mean you can just leave them at home all day long. No sir, they too, need some level of attention and will have to keep themselves occupied mentally and physically too. Well, FroliCat Dart makes it possible. Just what is the FroliCat Dart all about? Well, for starters, this device (装置) delivers 360° spin that will project laser patterns on the floor, letting your feline (猫科动物) friend chase after it. ‎ Portable USB Power Supply With modern gadgets (小配件), running out of juice happens to some of us more often, simply because today’s devices seem to suck up more juice than before. That’s why the Portable USB Power Supply comes in handy, being a best emergency charger for cell phones and other devices. Capable of holding a charge for up to three months when in standby，it will ship with adapter tips that meet some variety of cell phone brands.‎ Battery‎ Powered Gloves For those living in the northern hemisphere，we are pretty sure that you have already stocked up on your winter supplies to make sure you remain nice and warm throughout the upcoming freezing months. Well, wearing a pair of the Battery Powered Hand Warming Gloves is necessary so as to keep your palms and fingers warm. These gloves come with battery-powered integral (不可缺的) heating elements which is capable of keeping your hands nice and warm for up to eight hours. It requires a quartet of AA batteries in each glove, and since both gloves are fully lined with a waterproof, breathable material, they might just come in handy during your next snowball fight. Too bad it comes only in one color-black.‎ ‎25. Which of the following is true according to the advertisement?‎ ‎ A. Cats don’t like to live an active life.‎ ‎ B. You must wear gloves to keep your palms and fingers warm.‎ ‎ C. Battery powered gloves is a good choice when playing with snow.‎ ‎ D. If you want to buy battery powered gloves, you can choose whatever color you like.‎ ‎26. How does FroliCat Dart work? ‎ ‎ A. It can make cats run around your house. B.

The Portable USB Power Supply can charge for certain phones ‎ D. The Portable USB Power Supply can only last for three months ‎ ‎28. Where do the Battery Powered Gloves sell well? ‎ ‎ A. Iceland B. India C. Australia D Singapore ‎ C Recently, many e-commerce platforms, including Didi Taxi, Ctrip, Fliggy, JD and Taobao, have been uncovered that they are cheating their frequent customers. Their ways are pretty clever. When there are new users or conservative old users, they will give a quite appealing price to attract them into registering and buying goods. However, their big data is not that friendly to the stable users and frequent visitors. The system always offers them higher price for the same products or service. How does this happen? According to the data analysis, the system knows clearly that although they feel the price is high, they will finally pay the bill. By collecting and analyzing users’ profiles, buying habits and other information, big data recommends the same products to different users with different prices. ‎ Companies also try other ways to make money, making online consumption far more worrying. For example, video websites always offer 120 seconds’ advertisements, which drives people crazy. And even if you pay for the membership to get rid of the ads, you have to “enjoy” 15-second “private” ads. By broadcasting them, companies make huge profits ---second to the membership fees. Also, owning 100Mbps network, you still put up with the slow speed when you are downloading a song. You have no choice but to become a VIP when you seek high quality services. Users seem to be lambs(羊羔) among wolves. Even though they say “Since you have money, I’ll charge you more”, we can’t do anything about it. ‎ It pains us that we haven’t figured out a way to deal with the problem. The only thing we can do is replacing our iPhones with Android phones if we want to buy a membership card, and applying for new accounts if we want cheaper hotels. Not finding a way to fight back, we can’t do anything but accept them passively. ‎ ‎29. How does big data serve companies according to the text? ‎ ‎ A. By being kind to all users. ‎ ‎ B. By giving a discount to stable users. ‎ ‎ C. By attracting new users by analyzing their shopping habits. ‎ ‎ D. By recommending the same products with higher prices to regular users.‎ ‎30. What do we know from the second paragraph? ‎ ‎ A. Membership can rid you of all the ads. ‎ B. Only by being a VIP can you get a better service.‎ C. The slow download speed is due to your poor network.‎ D. Advertising income is the biggest income for video websites. ‎ ‎31. What is the author’ attitude towards the chances of finding a way to fight back? ‎ ‎ A. Uncertain. B. Casual. C. Negative. D. Positive. ‎ ‎32. What is the main idea of the text? ‎ ‎ A. The big data provides helpful information to users. ‎ B. We have to accept online consumption as it is. ‎ ‎ C. There exist many online consumption traps. ‎ D. Regular customers are richer. ‎ D Sustainable (可持续的) management is seen as a practical and economical way of protecting species from extinction. Instead of depending on largely ineffective laws against poaching (偷猎), it gives local people a good economic reason to protect plants and animals. In Zimbabwe, for instance, there is a sustainable management project to protect elephants. Foreign tourists pay large sums of money to kill these animals for sports. This money is then given to the inhabitants of the area where the hunting takes place. In theory, locals will be encouraged to protect elephants, instead of poaching them because of the economic benefit involved.‎ This sounds like a sensible way, but it remains to be seen whether it will work. With corruption (腐败) in these developing countries, some observers are doubtful that the money will actually reach the people it is intended for. Others wonder how effective the locals will be at stopping poachers.‎ There are also questions about whether sustainable management is practical when it comes to protecting forests. In theory, the formula should be the same as with elephants —allow logging companies to cut down some number of trees, but not so many as to completely destroy the forest.‎ Sustainable management of forests requires controls on the number of trees which are cut down, as well as investment (投资) in replacing them. Because almost all tropical forests are located in countries which very much need income from logging, there are few rules and motivation to do this.‎ One solution might be to certify (认证) wood which comes from sustainably managed forests. In theory, consumers would buy only this wood and so force logging companies to “go green” or go out of business. Unfortunately, unlimited logging is so much more profitable that wood prices from managed forests would cost up to five times more—an increase that consumers, no matter how “green”, are unlikely to pay.‎ ‎33. The example of Zimbabwe mentioned in the first paragraph is to .‎ ‎ A. prove that sustainable management is ineffective ‎ B. explain what sustainable management is ‎ C. show that tourism there is developing well ‎ D. indicate that people there are good at making money with elephants ‎34. The phrase “go green” in the last paragraph probably means .‎ ‎ A. a company begins to make money instead of being in red ‎ B. making the forests always green in colour ‎ C. operating in ways which do not damage the environment ‎ D. starting from the very beginning ‎35. What is the passage mainly about?‎ ‎ A. What environmental protection mainly include.‎ ‎ B. Whether sustainable management in environmental protection is practical.‎ ‎ C. Different people’s attitudes towards sustainable management.‎ ‎ D. How people can protect animals and plants.‎ 第二节: (共5小题，每小题2分) 根据短文内容，从所给的七个选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项是多余选项。‎ This Way to Dreamland ‎ Daydreaming means people think about something pleasant, especially when this makes them forget what they should be doing. Daydreamers are usually unknown of what’s happening around them. They can seem forgetful and clumsy (笨拙的). __36__ They trouble us because they seem to be ignoring us and missing the important things. ‎ ‎ But daydreamers are also responsible for some of the greatest ideas and achievements in human history. __37__ Can you imagine what kind of world we would have without such ideas and inventions? ‎ ‎ So how can you come up with brilliant daydreams and avoid falling over tree roots or looking like a fool? ‎ ‎ First, understand that some opportunities for daydreaming are better than others. Feeling safe and relaxed will help you to slide into daydreams. __38__ And if you want to improve your chances of having a creative idea while you’re daydreaming, try to do it while you are involved in another task —preferably (最好) something simple, like taking a shower or walking, or even making meaningless drawings. ‎ ‎ __39__ “Mindfulness”, being focused, is a tool that some people use to avoid falling asleep. It requires slow, steady breathing for self-control that helps people stay calm and attentive. ‎ Finally, you never know what wonderful idea might strike while your mind has moved slowly away. __40__ Always remember that your best ideas might come when your head is actually in the clouds. ‎ A. They start off into space and wander by themselves.‎ B. Having interesting things to think about also helps.‎ C. Without wandering minds, we wouldn’t have Coke relatively.‎ D. At one time, daydreaming was thought to be a cause of some mental illnesses. ‎ E. Daydreams, often simple and direct, are unlike sleep dreams, which may be hard to understand. ‎ F. It’s also important to know how to avoid daydreams when you really need to concentrate.‎ G. Therefore, it’s a good idea to keep a notebook or voice recorder nearby when you’re in the daydream zone.‎ 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，掌握其大意，然后从各题所给的四个选项中，选出最佳选项。‎ Last weekend, my kids along with a few other kids from the neighborhood volunteered to help me wash my car. My 10-year-old daughter came up with the idea of __41__ other people’s cars as well. It was pretty __42__ outside and I had no plans to __43__ being in the bright sun. She __44__ wanted to give lemonade（柠檬汽水）to passers-by for free. I had seen little kids __45__ and sell fresh lemonade for a small cost but not free. Although I felt __46__ , I decided to help her.

It was pretty neat to see a team of kids ranging 5--11 years with the __53__ to do something for others.‎ All that seemed __54__ and came right from their heart. Nothing seemed to __55__ to them: their playtime, the heat outside —they just wanted to __56__ others and do something nice in the community!‎ I helped them make some fresh lemonade and brought out some additional __57__ to help clean cars. Passers-by were __58__ and one even shouted back to them saying “God Bless You, my kids…” One of them even tried giving them 5 dollars, which they refused.
