There are 10 provinces in the country but only one of these—Quebec is known as “French Canada”. This is because it was founded by French explorers while British adventurers discovered the rest.‎ Canada left the British empire(帝国) in 1867 to become an independent country and English and French have been recognized as the official languages ever since.‎ Most people speak English as their first language and the two national television networks broadcast in English throughout the country. Apart from in Quebec and a few places on the east coast, French television is very rare.‎ The same goes for traffic signs and menus, for example, outside of Quebec, there are only a few places where you'll see traffic signs in French. In restaurants, it's almost impossible to find French on the menu unless you are in the heartland (中心地带) of French Canada. However, all products sold in Canada must, by law, have labels (标签) and instructions in both languages.‎ In Canada's English-speaking provinces, official bilingualism (双语) means that students can choose to complete a special French language course. Under this program, they are taught most of their subjects in French.‎ If a student begins the course in kindergarten(幼儿园) or Grade One, it is likely that all their lessons will be in French. However, if they start at junior high school, 25 percent of the teaching will continue to be in English.‎ ‎4. Where can you watch French television programmes?‎ A. Only in Quebec. B. In Quebec and a few other places.‎ C. From the two national television networks. D. All over Canada.‎ ‎5. What do we know about the education in Canada?‎ A. In English speaking provinces only English courses are offered.‎ B. If you choose a special French language course, most of the subjects are taught in French.‎ C. The courses in primary school are all taught in English.‎ D. Most of the courses in junior high schools are taught in English.‎ ‎6. What's the main idea of the passage?‎ A. Canada has two official languages: English and French.‎ B. English is spoken in Canada.‎ C. French is spoken in Canada.‎ D. All the above.‎ C Regardless of how far we'd like to believe gender (性别) equality in the workplace has come, there's still a yawning gap between male and female leaders in the professional world. A 2018 statistic showed that women nowadays hold just 5. 8 percent of CEOS positions at S&P 500 companies, according to Catalyst. ‎ While it's not a huge shock that women are somewhat underrepresented in leadership positions, what is surprising though, is the fact that females may actually be better suited to lead in almost every area, at least according to new findings from the BI Norwegian Business School.‎ In their research, Professor Oyvind L. Martinsen and Professor Lars Glas surveyed 2,900 managers with a special focus on personality types. The results were clear: Women scored higher than men in four of the five major leadership-centric categories while some people believe that men inherently make better leaders—probably because they picture a leader with a commanding voice, which is more typical of men than women—this is piece of research suggests that women are better at methodical management and goal-setting, openness, sociability and supportiveness, as well as ability to communicate clearly.‎ There was one area in which men scored higher than women, though, and that was on emotional stability and ability to face job-related pressure and stress. The results suggested that women are more sensitive to the effects of high-pressure or highly emotional situations.‎ Obviously, it's important to consider individual (个人的) differences. Anyone, regardless of gender, may be an inspiring leader and a competent boss. But next time you're hiring for a management position, you just might want to give the resumes(简历) from female candidates a harder look.‎ ‎7. What makes us shocked much at leadership positions?‎ A. Women are worse than men.‎ B. Men take almost all high positions.‎ C. There is a huge gap between genders.‎ D. Women might behave better in nearly every field.‎ ‎8. Which of the following can best replace the underlined word “inherently” in Paragraph4?‎ A. Properly. B. Potentially. C. Naturally. D. Normally.‎ ‎9. Who might have special interest in this article?‎ A. Job hunters. B. Employers.‎ C. Employees. D. Male bosses.‎ ‎10. Which of the following may be the best title of this text?‎ A. How We Can Figure Out the Boss B. Why Women Are Better Than Men C. Why Women Make the Best Bosses D. How We Can Tell Gender Difference 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。选项中有两项为多于选项。‎ ‎ Failure is a word that no one wants to hear. It is human beings’ biggest fear yet it is faced by every human being. Sometimes, people’s fear of it is their biggest barrier to success. 11 Here are some tips which can help you get on the positive side of life.‎ Never give up. Before starting anything that you think will give you success, promise yourself that you will never give up. 12 Remember that it is never too late to do so.‎ ‎ 13 This is the opportunity that you should not let go of. Suppose you are on a football ground. You strike the ball for 9 times in a row and fail. But at the tenth attempt, you succeed. The tenth attempt proves that you have somehow learnt from your mistakes.‎ Never think that you've got only one plan. The worst thing you can do after failing in some project is thinking that it was the only plan you could ever think of. 14 If Plan A fails, turn to Plan B or Plan C. If you are into achieving something, no one or nothing in this world can stop you.‎ ‎ 15 This is the most important thing that you need to live a happy life. Always think positive. Never let yourself down. Positivity is all we need to grow and establish ourselves in this world A. Keep on trying.‎ B. Keep a positive attitude.‎ C. Learn from your mistakes.‎ D. There is always another way.‎ E. Therefore, you need to learn how to deal with failure.‎ F. Just as the saying goes, failure is the mother of success.‎ G. This promise helps make your mind ready for both failure and success.‎ 第三节 完形填空(共 20 小题; 每小题 1分, 满分20 分)‎ 阅读下面短文，掌握其大意，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中，选出最佳选项。‎ All of us at Monte Vista Christian School know we’ll one day have graduation photos for the yearbook taken.
