Now, it is more than an emoji, but a cultural expansion. Reaching Global Markets A series of “funny” emoji-based bolsters(抱枕)have attracted the attention of Japanese customers. Even if one bolster is more than three times as expensive as in China, it doesn’t kill their desires to buy it. One Japanese customer Miki said, “They are just so cute and I bought three bolsters at one time. And every time I see them, my mood just brightens suddenly.” A Japanese netizen Kiro Kara said, “My dad will send it whenever he doesn’t agree with someone but he has to behave politely.” Addition to Domestic(国内的)Social Media One commonly seen online comment from Chinese netizens is, “Every time other people send me the emoji, I feel very uncomfortable and consider myself as a fool.” Released in 2013, the “funny” emoji is the updated version of its original one; “funny” has a smiley mouth, two eyebrows and a naughty look. All these characteristics present users a sense of satire (讽刺). In Everyday Use Abroad Earlier this year, one emoji from the Chinese basketball celebrity Yao Ming, who played in USA, has been spread through the Middle East region. In a city in Egypt, Yao’s smiling emoji has appeared in local traffic signs to remind people the road ahead is one-way. As a new online language, emojis have been helping people express their views in a more vivid and precise way. Also, it can help foreigners learn about Chinese culture. But how to use “the fifth innovation in China” without hurting others and turn them into commercial advantages still need ‎ answers. 25、Why do the bolsters attract Miki’s attention? ‎ ‎ A．Because they are cheap. B．Because they are made in China. ‎ C．Because they help lift the spirits. D．Because they help behave politely. ‎ ‎26、What can we know according to the text?‎ A．“Funny” emoji was created by Yao Ming. ‎ ‎ B．“Funny” emoji-based bolsters sell better in China than in Japan.‎ C．“Funny” emoji helps foreigners understand Chinese culture.‎ D．“Funny” emoji is regarded as friendliness by most Chinese netizens.‎ 27、 What’s the author’s attitude towards the emoji mentioned in this text? ‎ A．Critical. B．Doubtful. C．Opposed. D．Objective. ‎ ‎ C[来源:Z|xx|k.Com]‎ Five or six years ago, I attended a lecture on the science of attention. A professor who conducts research over in the medical school was talking about attention blindness, the basic feature of the human brain that, when we concentrate on one task, causes us to miss just about everything else. Because we can’t see what we can’t see, our lecturer was determined to catch us in the act. He had us watch a video of six people tossing (投掷) basketballs back and forth, three in white shirts and three in black, and our task was to keep track only of the tosses among the people in white. The tape rolled, and everyone began counting. Everyone except me. I’m dyslexic (患阅读困难症的), and the moment I saw that tape with the confusing basketball tossers, I knew I wouldn’t be able to keep track of their movements, so I let my mind wander. I became curious, though, when about 30 seconds into the tape, a gorilla (大猩猩) walked in among the players. She (we later learned a female student was in the gorilla suit) stared at the camera, beat her chest with her fist, and then went away while they continued passing the balls. bbbWhen the tape stopped, the professor asked how many people had counted at least a dozen basketball tosses. Hands went up all over. He then asked who had counted 13, 14, and congratulated those who’d scored the perfect 15. Then he asked, “And who saw the gorilla?” I raised my hand and was surprised to discover I was the only person at my table and one of only three or four in the large room to do so. He’d set us up, trapping us in our own attention blindness. ‎ Yes, there had been a trick, but he wasn’t the one who had played it on us. By concentrating so hard on counting, we had managed to miss the gorilla in the midst. Attention blindness is the fundamental organizing principle of the brain, and I believe that it presents us with a great opportunity. My take is different from that of many neuroscientists: Where they see the shortcomings of the individual, I sense an opportunity for cooperation. Fortunately, given the interactive (互动的) nature of most of our lives in the digital age, we have the tools to control our different forms of attention and take advantage of them. It’s not easy to admit that everything we’ve learned about how to pay attention means that we’ve been missing everything else. It’s not easy for us logical, intelligent, confident types to admit that the very key to our success — our ability to discover a problem and solve it, an achievement obtained in all those years in school and beyond — may be exactly what limits us. No one ever told us that our way of seeing left out everything else. 28、Which of the following is true about the writer when the tape was played?‎ A． Like everyone else, the writer was counting carefully.‎ B． The writer showed great curiosity about what the players were doing.‎ C． The writer had difficulty keeping track of the tossers’ movements. ‎ D．The writer tried hard to stop her mind from wandering.‎ ‎29.Most of the people failed to notice the gorilla in the video because _____. ‎ A．they were trapped by the basketball players B．they focused on the basketball tossing only C．they did not know what they were supposed to do D．they did not listen to the lecture carefully 30、 The word “take” (paragraph 5) most probably means _____.‎ A．preference B．impression C．scene D．understanding ‎ ‎31、In the writer’s opinion, attention blindness ______.‎ A．should be viewed as a shortcoming of the individual B．might be overcome if we can discover problems and solve them C．helps us to become logical, intelligent and confident types of people D．makes it possible for us to work together for a shared purpose ‎ D Many children first learn the value of money by receiving an allowance (pocket money). The purpose is to let the children learn from experiences at an early age when financial mistakes are not very costly. The amount of money that parents give to their children to spend as they wish differs from family to family. Timing is another consideration. Some children get a weekly allowance. Others get a monthly allowance. In any case, parents should make clear what, if anything, the child is expected to pay for with the money. At first, young children may spend all of their allowance soon after they receive it. If they do this, they will learn the hard way that spending must be done within a budget. Parents are usually advised not to offer more money until the next allowance. The object is to show young people that a budget demands a choice between spending and saving.Older children may be responsible enough to save money for larger costs like clothing or electronics. Many people who have written on the subject of allowances say it is not a good idea to pay your child for work around the home. These jobs are a normal part of family life. Paying children to do extra work around the house, however, can be useful. It can even provide an understanding of how a business works. Allowances give children a chance to experience the three things they can do with money. They can share it in the form of gifts or giving to a good cause. They can spend it by buying things they want. Or they can save it. Saving helps children understand that costly goals require sacrifice. You have to cut costs and plan for the future. Requiring children to save part of their allowances can also open the door to future saving and investing. Many banks offer services to help children and teenagers learn about personal finance. A savings account is an excellent way to learn about the power of compound interest. Compounding works by paying interest on interest. So, for example, one dollar invested at two percent interest for two years will earn two cents in the first year. The second year, the money will earn two percent of one dollar and two cents, and so on. That may not seem like a lot. But over time it adds up. 32、Giving an allowance, parents should consider all the following EXCEPT_______.‎ A．how much the child should get each time B．whether the child has made a budget C．where the money really goes D．how often a child can get it ‎33、The author of the passage holds the opinion that________.‎ A．what children learn by handling allowances may be beneficial in the future B．children can learn to set up their own business with their allowances C．keeping allowances in the bank is the best choice for children D．it is not a good idea to pay children for housework at home ‎34、The underlined words “compound interest” in the passage probably means ________.‎ A．increasing curiosity to learn how to make more money B．stronger power to hold one’s attention to saving money C．money paid by the bank on your original money and the gain from it D．the sum of money that you earn from keeping your money in the bank ‎35、What is the best title for the passage?‎ A．Be Generous to Pay Your Children.‎ B．Be Wise to Avoid Financial Mistakes.‎ C．Saving Allowances Does Good to Children.‎ D．Allowances Help Children Learn about Money.‎ 第二节 七选五 One of the worst feelings in the world is trying your hardest at something but still fail. In the case of schoolwork, studying for hours and bringing home disappointing grades may make you feel hopeless, but this is far from the truth. If you are dealing with disappointing grades, change your study habits. 36、. ·Act fast 37、. Don’t sit around, and definitely don’t ignore them. Instead, admit that you need help and go in search of it soon. The faster you face up to the problem, the faster you can find a solution and see some results. ·38、 Remember, if you keep doing the same thing all the lime you’ll undoubtedly keep getting the same ‎ results. Mix things up by asking for help, whether from a friend or fellow student, your teacher or a private tutor. • Set up a dedicated workspace Sitting for hours at the kitchen table trying to ignore your family, or opening your books in front of the television does not make for successful studying. 39、. Get into the habit of settling into this workspace whenever you have schoolwork to do and soon you’ll be flying through your homework. • Learn from your mistakes If you are having trouble with a particular kind of question in the exam papers and homework, don’t be discouraged. 40、. Request an appointment with your teacher and use this time to discuss your work and get his / her advice as well.‎ A．Ask for Help B．Find out the reasons C．You’d better form a habit D．You’ll be amazed by the results E. It is time to figure out exactly where you are going wrong F. Instead, find a quiet space away from the rest of your family G. The most important rule about dealing with disappointing grades is to take immediate actions 三、完形填空（共20小题、每小题1.5分、满分30分）‎ I used to work as a waitress in a little restaurant.

Most of them don’t realize just how damaging to their healthy this is, let alone the effect it has on their grades.
