He was looking for the girl whose heart he knew, but whose face he didn't, the girl with the rose. ‎ ‎ When reading a book in a Florida library a year before, John became interested not in the contents of the book, but in the notes penciled in the margin (空白处). The handwriting reflected a thoughtful soul and beautiful mind. He discovered the former owner's name in the front of the book: Miss Hollis Maynell. ‎ ‎ He located her address and wrote a letter introducing himself. The next day he was shipped overseas to serve in the army. During the next year, they grew to know each other through the mail and their friendship developed. John requested a photograph, but she refused, saying if he really cared, it wouldn't matter what she looked like. When the day finally came for him to return home, their first meeting was suggested-7:00 pm at the Grand Central Station in New York. ‎ ‎ She wrote, "You'll recognize me by the red rose I wear on my coat." So now John was in the station to meet the girl with a rose. ‎ ‎ As a pretty and slim girl in green came over, John noticed her blue eyes like flowers in spring. He walked directly towards her, entirely forgetting she was not wearing a rose. As John came closer to her, he saw another woman with a red rose stood nearby. Well past 40, this woman had graying hair done under a worn hat. Seeing the girl in green walk quickly away, John felt as if he were split (劈开) in two. He desired to follow that girl, but longed for the woman whose spirit had truly companioned and supported him. ‎ ‎ The woman looked gentle and sensible. John went to her, saying, "I'm Captain John Blanchard. You must be Miss Maynell. I am glad to meet you here. May I take you to dinner?" ‎ ‎ She replied with a smile, "I don't know what this is about. But the lady in green who just went by, begged me to wear this rose on my coat. She said if you asked me out to dinner, I'd tell you she is waiting for you in the big restaurant across the street. She said it was some kind of test!"‎ ‎24.

D. He asked Miss Maynell for a photo.‎ ‎26. What do we know about the woman with a rose?‎ A. She was Miss Maynell’s close companion.‎ B. She was a conductor working in the station.‎ C. She knew nothing about John's appointment.‎ D. She was paid to carry out a love test on John.‎ ‎27. Which would be the best title of the text?‎ A. The Meeting in the Station B. A Meeting by Accident ‎ C. A Soldier and a Girl D. Love Test C ‎ Harry, the first camel to arrive in Australia in 1840, was an unlucky beast. He was imported from the Canary Islands by explorer John Horrocks. On an expedition (探险) , Horrocks picked up his gun in order to shoot “a beautiful bird to be added to the collection.” Perhaps Harry was an ecologist ---- he lurched (突然倾斜), and the gun discharged, shooting Horrocks in the face.‎ Horrocks not surprisingly died of his injuries, and his treatments ordered Harry to be shot. The first importation of a camel into Australia came to naught.‎ In 1860, 24 camels arrived in Australia to be part of an expedition by explorers Robert O’Hara Burke and William John Wills. It was an unlucky expedition. The pair made one mistake after another, and ended up eating most of their camels, before starving to death.‎ Six years later, more than 100 camels and their Afghan minders, arrived in Australia. This time it succeeded and thousands more camels followed.‎ Sir Thomas Elder set up the first camel studs (种畜场) in South Australia, while others were set up in Western Australia. This time the camels bred (繁殖) like wildfire. They were used for working, rather than exploring expeditions.‎ The imported Afghan cameleers were just as hardy and vital, leading camel trains across the cruel interior (腹地) of Australia, where few dared to go. The camels carried heavy packs of wool and supplies and opened up the desert areas as none had managed to do before. The train that does this crossing today is called The Ghan, in their honor. ‎ Motorization put these camel trains out of business, and many camels were turned loose. The camels loved Australia, and multiplied in amazing numbers. What is to be done with them?‎ Not surprisingly they have become quite a tourist attraction and you can take a camel ride in the desert as the Afghan cameleers once did. But the fact is that camels create quite a problem in areas where they have taken over, as they damage local vegetation, muscle out native animals competing for food, and create chaos when they wander into settled area.‎ ‎28. What do we know about Harry?‎ ‎ A. He caused the death of an explorer. B. He was shot by his owner.‎ ‎ C. He was interested in ecology. D. He arrived in Australia by accident.‎ ‎29. What does the underlined part “came to naught” in Paragraph 2 probably mean?‎ ‎ A. Started. B. Failed. C. Got limited. D. Got protected.‎ ‎30. What’s the sixth paragraph mainly about?‎ ‎ A. Camels’ character. B. How camels were imported.‎ ‎ C. Camels’ contribution to Australia. D. Why camels could survive in Australia. ‎ ‎31. Which of the following is TRUE about today’s camels in Australia?‎ ‎ A. They are raised in studs. B. They are decreasing in numbers.‎ ‎ C. They are causing a lot of trouble. D. They are popular with the locals.‎ D Most people feel lonely sometimes, but it usually lasts only between a few minutes and a few hours. This kind of loneliness is not serious. In fact, it is quite normal. For some people, though, loneliness can last for years. Now researchers say there are three different types of loneliness. ‎ The first kind of loneliness is temporary. This is the most common type. It usually disappears quickly and does not require any special attention. The second kind, situational loneliness, is a natural result of a particular situation－for example, the death of a loved one, or moving to a new place. Although this kind of loneliness can cause physical problems, such as headaches and sleeplessness, it usually does not last for more than a year. ‎ The third kind of loneliness is the most severe. Unlike the second type, chronic(长期的) loneliness usually lasts more than two years and has no specific cause. People who experience habitual loneliness have problem socializing and becoming close to others unfortunately, many chronically lonely people think there is little or nothing they can do to improve their condition.‎ Many researchers agree that the loneliest people are between the ages 18 and 25, so a group of psychologists decided to study a group of college students. They found that more than 50% of the students were situationally lonely at the beginning of the ‎ term as a result of their new circumstances, but had adjusted after a few months, 13% were still lonely after seven months due to shyness and fear. They felt very uncomfortable meeting strangers, even though they understood that their fear was not reasonable. The situationally lonely students overcame their loneliness by making new friends, but the chronically lonely remained unhappy because they were afraid to do so.‎ Psychologists are trying to find ways to help habitually lonely people for two reasons: they are unhappy and unable to socialize and there is a connection between chronic loneliness and serious illness such as heart disease. While temporary and situational loneliness can be a normal, healthy part of life, chronic loneliness can be a very sad, and sometimes dangerous condition.‎ ‎32. How would you treat temporary loneliness according to the passage?‎ A. Talk to friends. B. Go to see a doctor. C. Just ignore it. D. Ask your teacher for guidance.‎ ‎33. In the last sentence of the second paragraph, “it” refers to _______.‎ ‎ A. temporary loneliness B. sleeplessness C. a new place D. situational loneliness ‎34. All of the following are true EXCEPT that ________.‎ ‎ A. situational loneliness can cause physical problems B. temporary loneliness does not need special attention C. chronic loneliness can cause problems in socializing D. 37% of the students can overcome loneliness easily ‎35. Where can we probably read the passage?‎ ‎ A. Comic books. B. A novel. C. A magazine. D. A diary.‎ 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。‎ Last week after my motorcycle crashed on the freeway, I wanted only two simple things from technology: to call 911 and tell loved ones where I could be found. __36__ When she opened Google Maps, she could see precisely where I was.‎ For years, tech companies have offered different ways for people to tell one another where they are. __37__ If used carelessly, location tracking may hurt your privacy. But used thoughtfully, it can be a powerful and efficient communication tool. __38__‎ ‎·When you make plans to meet friends somewhere like a movie theater, get in the habit of sharing your location for a short duration, like an hour. This way you can skip saying things like “ I’m on my way” or “ I’m running a few minutes behind” because people can simply follow you on the map.‎ ‎·__39__ Location sharing can be useful for being thoughtful (考虑周到的) of your partner’s time and space. For example, I am less likely to text my partner when I see she is at the office or driving on a freeway, but I will text when I see she is at the grocery store to ask her to pick something up.‎ ‎·Next time you plan an event at a large outdoor space, do your friends a favor: __40__ Wandering around aimlessly in a crowded open space can be annoying.‎ A. Here are my suggestions for the best times to use it.‎ B. For safety reasons, avoid sharing your location publicly.‎ C. Use an app to share your current location so they can find you.‎ D. Consider sharing your location occasionally with your partner. ‎ E. There are many ways for third parties to find out where we were.‎ F. Yet location tracking has caused disagreement for the last decade.‎ G. Before calling 911, I texted my partner who was already tracking my location with an app.‎ 第三部分 语言知识运用（共两节，满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，从短文后各题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。‎ It was Australia Day.
