As the number of this new“species”of human has kept rising. They have been given a new name－phubbers (低头族)．‎ Recently，a cartoon created by students from China Central Academy of Fine Arts put this group of people under the spotlight. In the short film，phubbers with various social identities bury themselves in their phones. A doctor plays with his cell phone while letting his patient die，a pretty woman takes selfie in front of a car accident site，and a father loses his child without knowing about it while using his mobile phone. A chain of similar events eventually leads to the destruction of the world.‎ Although the ending sounds overstated，the damage phubbing can bring is real.‎ Your health is the first to bear the effect and result of it. “Constantly bending your head to check your cell phone could damage your neck,” Guangming Daily quoted doctors as saying，“the neck is like a rope that breaks after long term stretching.”Also，staring at cell phones for long periods of time will damage your eyesight gradually，according to the report.‎ But that’s not all. Being a phubber could also damage your social skills and drive you away from your friends and family. At reunions with family or friends，many people tend to stick to their cell phones while others are chatting happily with each other and this creates a strange atmosphere，Beijing Evening News reported.‎ It can also cost you your life. There have been lots of reports on phubbers who fell to their death，suffered accidents，and were robbed of their cell phones in broad daylight.‎ ‎28. For what purpose does the author give the example of a cartoon in Para.2?‎ A．To advertise the cartoon made by students.‎ B．To inform people of the bad effects of phubbing.‎ C．To indicate the world will finally be destroyed by phubbers.‎ D．To warn doctors against using cell phones while treating patients.‎ ‎29. Which of the following is NOT a risk a phubber may have?‎ A．His social skills could be affected.‎ B．His neck and eyesight will be gradually harmed.‎ C．He might get separated from his friends and family.‎ D．He will cause the destruction of the world.‎ ‎30. Which of the following may be the author’s attitude towards phubbing?‎ A．Supportive.   B. Optimistic. C. Opposed.       D. Objective.‎ ‎31. What may the passage talk about next?‎ A．Measures to reduce the risks of phubbing.‎ B．People addicted to phubbing.‎ C．Definition of phubbers.‎ D．Consequences of phubbing.‎ D There has been a large increase in the number of natural disasters over the past few years，and it is believed that global warming and climate change could cause even more disasters in the future．Some of the world's leading cities are facing disasters like floods and heat waves．‎ London London's flood defenses are getting older．Since 1982，the Thames Barrier（水闸）has protected the city from the threat （威胁）of flooding，but it was only designed to last until 2030and close once every two or three years．About 31years later the barrier now closes five or six times a year and according to Environment Agency predictions，by 2050the barrier will be closed on almost every tide if the problem is not solved There are 26 underground stations，400schools，16hospitals，an airport and 80billion worth of property（财产）in London's flood risk area，so large scale flooding would be disastrous．‎ Paris Over a six week period in July and August 2003，more than 11，400﹣mainly elderly people﹣died in France from dehydration（脱水）and extremely high body temperature in a deadly heat wave．Heat waves of similar intensity（强度）are expected every seven years by 2050，so what can be done to make sure such a disaster does not happen again？‎ One solution is to have air﹣conditioners installed（安装）in elderly care homes．But this is considered a short﹣term solution，as the increase in demand for electricity also increases carbon emissions（排放）．‎ In Paris the local authorities are encouraging architects to design new types of buildings such as the building "Flower Tower", which uses a covering of bamboo to act as a natural air﹣conditioner．‎ Shanghai Shanghai is the fastest growing city on Earth．It has a population of 18million and is only 4meters above sea level．Sea levels are predicted to rise by 20cm within the next century．‎ About 250，000 people move to Shanghai every year in search of work，placing extra demands on energy consumption（消耗）．China depends heavily on coal﹣fired power stations，but these emissions increase temperatures and，in turn，warmer seas increase the risk of typhoons．‎ ‎32．What problem should be settled now in London？　 　‎ A．How to improve the function of the old flood defenses B．Where to build its flood defenses C．How to use the Thames Barrier to protect the city D．How to protect the city's property ‎33．Which of the following measures can't solve the heat wave disaster in Paris？　 　‎ A．Putting up new types of buildings with a covering of bamboo．‎ B．Having air﹣conditioners installed in elderly care homes．‎ C．Forbidding the city to build "Flower Tower"．‎ D．Encouraging architects to design new types of buildings．‎ ‎34．The major threats caused in Shanghai are________．‎ A．increasing population and coal﹣fired power stations B．extra demands on energy consumption and coal﹣fired power stations C．increasing population and rising sea levels D．rising sea levels and typhoons ‎35．The purpose of the passage is_________．‎ A．to tell us how to protect the big cities B．to warn us of the increasing natural disasters in big cities C．to explain what causes flood and heat waves D．to give advice on how to defend natural disasters．‎ 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。‎ How to Prepare a Lecture Being invited to give a lecture is an honor. It means that people regard you as an authority on a given field, subject, or issue. It means you are worth listening to. 36 You have to make sure your lecture is interesting, and full of wisdom, from which the audience can take valuable insights. This is why it is important for you to prepare your lecture well.‎ ‎1. Think of a good topic.‎ You most likely will be assigned to talk about a certain topic. If that's the case, you only need to make an outline and do some research. But in some cases, you will have to think of your own topic. Although it gives you more freedom to do it, thinking of a topic can be tricky. 37 Or pick a topic that is timely and socially relevant.‎ ‎2. Make an outline for the lecture.‎ Start by listing down the points that you will discuss, and then fill in each point with sub-points. If necessary, make a research about your topic. 38 But if in so doing you end up with a very long outline, figure how you can shorten the topic or cut where cutting is needed.‎ ‎3. 39 ‎ Statistics, figures, medical information, historical accounts, and similar information should all be checked and it will save your credibility as an authority on the subject you are talking about.‎ ‎4. Add humor.‎ Don't engage your audience in a dragging soliloquy (独白). 40 Humor will interest your audience. Of course, make sure the elements in your lecture are in line with your main topic and are not nonsense, racial, and offensive jokes.‎ A．Check your lecture for accuracy.‎ B．Giving a lecture is challenging, though.‎ C．If necessary, provide your contact information, such as an email address or blog site.‎ D．Instead, make your audience smile, or burst into laughter at certain points in your discussion.‎ E．To make it easier, consider what will interest your audience.‎ F．It should summarize your whole talk in one sentence.‎ G．Don't be afraid of exploring the topic, as this will allow you to discover other points that need ‎ 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） ‎ I'm a TV show host．One Sunday，I 41　 　my 7-year-old daughter by the sea for lunch．On arriving at the beach，I saw JoJo，a 42 man in the hotel business．We sat down to chat in an open air café 43 　 I watched my daughter enjoy herself on the swings in front of us．‎ Suddenly our conversation was 44 　 by a stranger，who politely asked 45 to speak to me．Often people want to tell me 46 about my controversial TV show，when I'm out on the 47　．He asked to speak to me 48 ，so we stood a bit away from my table．He said，"I'm James，father of a 7﹣year﹣old girl，who's very sick．The doctors said that if she was treated in the UK，she would probably 49　 ．But I'm poor，so can you please help me?"
