Charlie and the Chocolate Factory B At ten years old, I borrowed a book from the library that had the word “crime” in the title. My mother did not notice this book among my large number of books until I began reading it. The book was confiscated (没收), and we went back to the library. I remember how embarrassed I was as my mother explained that I needed reading material that was different from the book that we had just returned. The librarian on duty looked down at me, smiling, walked from behind the counter, and gestured to me to follow. We crossed the hallway to the adult fiction section. “Here you are,” she said. “It’s called I Capture the Castle, by Dodie Smith, the same author who wrote The Hundred and One Dalmatians.” I felt far too old for dog stories. “It’s very different from The Hundred and One Dalmatians, though,” she said, noticing my disappointment. I tried to accept that she was right. But I was doubtful. I mean, the title alone was strange. But I still took the book home. I curled up on our window seat, and started reading. To my surprise, I was completely attracted and it spurred (激起) my writing dream. Two weeks ago, I drove two and a half hours to meet my mother for a Christmas lunch in a tea shop in my old hometown. I had just finished a cup of coffee in the tea shop when I looked up and saw the librarian, who had changed my life. Sixteen years had passed, but --- for a moment --- time stood still. I moved toward her --- all knees and elbows and energy --- and blurted (脱口而出), “You work at the library! You once showed me I Capture the Castle! I’m a writer now! That’s still my favorite book!” The woman stopped and smiled kindly. But then she tipped her head. I realized that dementia ( 痴 呆 ) or something like it had kept her from understanding me. A woman who was probably her sister took her by the elbow and led her gently away. As I watched her go, I wondered how many lives we change without realizing what we do is meaningful. All that woman had really done was lend me a book, but it had captured my world. 39. Why did the author and her mom go back to the library? A. To seek help from the librarian. B. To exchange words with the librarian. C. To borrow more books from the library. D. To replace the book with another one. 40. How did the author feel about I Capture the Castle at first? A. She felt no interest in it. B. She felt she was too young to read it. C. She felt sure that it was a strange book. D. She thought it was different from dog stories. 41. What can we infer about the author from paragraph 4? A. She was always busy writing. B. She lived far from her mother. C. She was excited to see the librarian. D. She had no control over her feelings. 42. What is the author’s purpose in writing the text? A. To remember the lady librarian. B. To stress our influences on others. C. To show her respect for the librarian. D. To tell us about her writing experience. C It is reported that the United States Postal Service (USDP) has started tests with self- driving trucks to transport mail. The Postal Services is partnering with a California-based company, called TuSimple, on the project. The tests are being carried out over two weeks. Two of TuSimple’s self-driving trucks will transport mail between the southwestern cities of Phoenix, Arizona and Dallas, Texas. The trucks will make five round trips between the cities. Each one will cover a distance of about 3,300 kilometers. The testing is aimed at seeing whether the self-driving technology can reduce transportation times and costs and improve road safety. If successful, the Postal Service could use the trucks to move mail between major U.S. population centers forever. TuSimple said a human “safety driver” will be sitting in the driver’s seat at all times during the trips to intervene if necessary. An engineer will ride in the passenger seat as a watcher to take notes. The trucks will travel on major interstate roads that pass through Arizona, New Mexico and Texas. TuSimple noted on its website the trucks are equipped with a camera system that sees about 1,000 meters down the road. It said this provides 35 seconds of reaction (反应) time, giving the system enough time to make the safest driving decisions. One of the main goals of the technology is to remove the need for truck drivers. Transportation experts say now the United States is facing a shortage of truck drivers. This will result from an aging workforce (劳动力) and the difficulty of getting younger people to work as truck drivers. Self-driving trucks built to transport things have some advantages over driverless cars. They generally run on interstate roads that do not have the complex ( 复 杂 的 ) traffic systems found in cities. This will reduce mapping requirements for the trucks and lower safety risks including people walking on streets or riding bicycles. 43. Which word can replace the underlined word “intervene” in Paragraph 4? A. push B. escape C. deliver D. drive 44. What can we infer from Paragraph 5? A. The speed of the trucks is very fast. B. The safety of trucks is very high. C. TuSimple produces high-quality cameras. D. Cameras are available on TuSimple’s website. 45. What’s the aim of the self-driving technology? A. To ensure the safety of drivers. B. To stop the young driving trucks. C. To avoid the use of truck drivers. D. To remover hard work for drivers. 46. Why do self-driving trucks have advantages over driverless cars? A. It is cheaper to make them. B. They improve road safety. C. They cover a longer distance. D. There are no passengers in them. D You might be familiar with the experience of looking through your Facebook, only to feel like everyone else’s life is better than yours. But such “social comparisons” may be connected with a higher likelihood of having depression. That’s one finding from a new study that proved social media behavior has a connection with the mental (精神的) health condition. In the study, the researchers studies information from around 500 undergraduate students who actively used Facebook, Twitter, Instagram or Snapchat and completed an online survey to examine certain social media behavior, as well as symptoms (症状) of depression. The researchers found that people’s reasons for using social media --- whether it was out of boredom, or for entertainment or news --- were not connected with depression. But how they were using social media was, indeed, connected to the condition. The finding that people with depression were less likely to post photos of themselves with others may be related to the tendency (倾向) for people with depression to isolate themselves, said Anthony Bobinson, a psychology student at Texas State University. In any case, it’s not good to compare yourself to others who seem “better off” than you, Bobinson added. “People want to make themselves look better off than they really are on social media.” He said. “This is not someone’s ‘real life’. It’s important to recognize that.” The researchers also stressed that their findings didn’t mean that social media use is necessarily a bad thing. “I don’t think it’s always bad,” Howard, one of the researchers, said. “It can be bad, but it can also provide social support. It can give people a way to be around people that are similar to them.” Finally, Howard hopes the study leads to ideas that may teach people how to use technology better, rather than taking it away. 47. What did the researchers want to know through the study? A. The effects of social media. B. The benefits of social media. C. Why people use social media. D. How people use social media. 48. What do the underlined words “isolate themselves” probably mean? A. Make themselves better. B. Make themselves alone. C. Make themselves worse. D. Make themselves popular. 49. What did Robinson think of comparing with those who are better than us on social media? A. It is unusual. B. It is necessary. C. It is interesting. D. It is meaningless. 50. The researchers’ attitude towards social media can be described as . A. fair B. unclear C. doubtful D. confident get across, let…down, live up to, make an impact on, make a comment about, pick up, pull one’s weight, rise to one’s feet, take…into account, the other way round, turn out, turn to 注意事项： 第Ⅱ卷 非选择题（共 35 分） 1. 请用黑色墨水的钢笔或签字笔将答案写在答题卡上。 2. 本卷共 16 小题，共 35 分。 第一部分 短语填空（共 10 小题；每小题 1 分，满分 10 分） （选用下面方框中所给短语的适当形式完成下列句子。注意：有两个多余的短语） 51.

Helen grew up hearing many terrible stories about people who were injured in the war. So as a child, Helen was eager to become a nurse to help those people. And indeed, she became one. In early 1991, her operating room manager at the University of Virginia said, “Helen, I’d like you to take on a small project.” “Okay,” Helen agreed. “What’s up?” Her manager replied, “Our nineteen operating rooms here are generating too much medical waste. Clean stuff that haven’t been used. With your twenty years, working in the operating room, you have the knowledge and experience to figure out what to do with them all.” So for a year, Helen collected clean medical supplies from all their operating rooms and donated them to missions (布道所). She researched the issue of medical waste. She was surprised to find that more than 2.4 million tons of hospital waste is generated in the USA annually, with the operating rooms being the largest waste generators. “This is valuable waste, which can be utilized again rather than just being thrown away,” she said. Helen worked four ten-hour days in the operating room, and then spent countless hours networking with people on behalf of missions. Before she could say, “How did I get myself into this?” She had formed Medical Equipment Recovery of Clean Inventory ( 物品清单) (MERCI). For years, she sorted supplies after work, every day including weekends. Gradually MERCI had a steady stream of volunteers helping to sort, and the results were beyond their wildest imaginations. Since Helen started her “small project”, MERCI has sorted more than 350 tons of medical supplies valued at $75 million, which have been sent all over the world and helped many people. And now, Helen still leads a very busy life, but she thinks what she has been doing is meaningful. 61. Why did little Helen want to become a nurse? (no more than 10 words) 62. What small project did Helen’s operating room manager ask her to do? (no more than 5 words) 63. What does the underlined word “utilized” in Paragraph 3 mean? (one word) 64.
