They're all different, but some are definitely better than others.‎ ‎ Rotten Tomatoes ‎ Instead of telling Rotten Tomatoes which films you like, you can tell it what kind of films you enjoy, which actors you want to see, and other standards to help it find the best movie for you. There’s a lot of variability in the quality of Rotten Tomatoes recommendations but it's also a nice way to find the right film for any mood.‎ ‎ Netflix ‎ Netflix asks you to rate(评级)movies to determine which films you'll want to see next. And although it does make it easy to rate movies and it does return huge lists, the ideas it gives you aren’t all that strong. It’s easy to use, but it's not the best way to get movie recommendations.‎ ‎ Jinni ‎ Whether you want to search for films based on your mood, time available, or reviews, the site has it all. But Jinni's most amazing feature is its semantic search. You can enter terms like "movies that have gangsters" or "films that show Chris Farley yelling" and the site will return films that match your question. Go use Jinni. You won’t regret it! ‎ ‎ Criticker ‎ Instead of just allowing you to rank films, Criticker compares your ratings to those of other users and see how closely your tastes match those of other users. Once the service finds matches, you can view other users' lists and see which movies they like. ‎ ‎21. What makes Criticker special?‎ ‎ A. Comparing users' ratings. B. Ranking your favourite films.‎ C. Offering different standards. D. Finding films based on mood.‎ ‎22. Which one does the author recommend most?‎ A. Netflix. B. Jinni C. Criticker. D. Rotten Tomatoes.‎ ‎23. What is the purpose of the text?‎ A. To recommend the best movies online.‎ B. To show how to use movie search engines.‎ C. To introduce several movie search engines.‎ D. To explain how to find the best movies online.‎ B A few weeks ago, I called an Uber to take me to the Boston airport for a flight home for the holidays. As I slid into the back seat of the car, the warm intonations（语调）of the driver’s accent washed over me in a familiar way.‎ I learned that he was a recent West African immigrant with a few young children, working hard to provide for his family. I could relate: I am the daughter of two Ethiopian immigrants who made their share of sacrifices to ensure my success. I told him I was on a college break and headed home to visit my parents. That’s how he found out I go to Harvard. An approving eye glinted（闪烁）at me in the rearview window, and quickly, we crossed the boundaries of rider and driver. I became his daughter, all grown up – the product of his sacrifice.‎ And then came the fateful question: “What do you study?” I answered “history and literature” and the pride in his voice faded, as I knew it might. I didn’t even get to add “and African-American studies” before he cut in, his voice thick with disappointment. “All that work to get into Harvard, and you study history?”‎ Here I was, his daughter, squandering the biggest opportunity of her life. He went on to deliver the age-old lecture that all immigrant kids know. We are to become doctors (or lawyers, if our parents are being generous) – to make money and send money back home. The unspoken demand, made across generations, which my Uber driver laid out plainly, is simple: Fulfill your role in the narrative（故事）of upward ‎ mobility so your children can do the same.‎ I used to feel anxious and backed into a corner by the questioning, but now as a junior in college, I’m grateful for their support more than anything. This holiday season, I’ve promised myself I won’t get annoyed at their inquiries. I won’t defensively respond with “but I plan to go to law school!” when I get unrequested advice. I’ll just smile and nod, and enjoy the warmth of the occasion.‎ ‎24. What disappointed the driver?‎ ‎ A. The author’s attitude towards him.‎ ‎ B. The school that the author is attending.‎ ‎ C. The author’s majors in history and literature.‎ ‎ D. The author’s interests can replace the in African American studies.‎ ‎25. Which of the following can replace the underlined word “squandering” in Paragraph 4?‎ A. wasting B. creating C. valuing D. seizing ‎ 26. Why are immigrant kids expected to be doctors or lawyer?‎ ‎ A. They are very smart in general.‎ ‎ B. They have more opportunities.‎ ‎ C. Their parents are high achieving as well.‎ ‎ D. Their parents want them to move upward in society.‎ ‎ 27. How did the author feel about the driver’s questioning?‎ ‎ A. Getting upset. B. Feeling satisfied. ‎ ‎ C. Defending herself. D. Appreciating his concern.‎ C Since the 1970s, scientists have been searching for ways to link the brain with computers. Brain-computer interface (BCI) technology could help people with disabilities send commands to machines.‎ Recently, two researchers, Jose Milan and Michele Tavella from the Federal Polytechnic school in Lausanne, Switzerland, demonstrated (展示) a small robotic wheelchair directed by a person’s thoughts.‎ In the laboratory, Tavella operated the wheelchair just by thinking about moving his left or right hand. He could even talk as he watched the vehicle and guided it with his thoughts.‎ ‎“Our brain has billions of nerve cells. These send signals through the spinal cord (脊髓) to the muscles to give us the ability to move. But spinal cord injuries or other conditions can prevent these weak electrical signals from reaching the muscles,” Tavella says. “Our system allows disabled people to communicate with external world and also to control devices.”‎ The researchers designed a special cap for the user. This head cover picks up the signals from the scalp (头皮) and sends them to a computer. The computer interprets the signals and commands the motorized wheelchair. The wheelchair also has two cameras that identify objects in its path. They help the computer react to commands from the brain.‎ Prof. Milan, the team leader, says scientists keep improving the computer software that interprets brain signals and turns them into simple commands. “The practical possibilities that BCI technology offers to disabled people can be grouped in two categories: communication, and controlling devices. One example is this wheelchair.”‎ He says his team has set two goals. One is testing with real patients, so as to prove that this is a technology they can benefit from. And the other is to guarantee that they can use the technology over long periods of time.‎ ‎28. BCI is technology that can .‎ ‎ A. help to update computer systems ‎ B. link the human brain with computers ‎ C. help the disabled to recover ‎ D. control a person’s thoughts ‎29. How did Tavella operate the wheelchair in the laboratory?‎ ‎ A. By controlling his muscles.‎ ‎ B. By talking to the machine.‎ ‎ C. By moving his hand.‎ ‎ D. By using his mind.‎ ‎30. Which of the following shows the path of the signals described in Paragraph 5?‎ A. scalp → computer → cap → wheelchair B. computer → cap → scalp → wheelchair C. scalp → cap → computer → wheelchair D. cap → computer → scalp→ wheelchair ‎ 31. Which of the following would be the best title for the text?‎ A. Switzerland, the BCI Research Center B. New Findings About How the Human Brain Works C. BCI Could Mean More Freedom for the Disabled D. Robotic Vehicles Could Help to Cure Brain Injuries D In the western Pacific Ocean lies the deepest place on the planet — the Mariana Trench, which runs as deep as about 7 miles below the ocean’s surface. That’s greater than the height of Mount Everest measuring about 5 and a half miles above sea level. The Mariana Trench is home to a variety of sea life. Coral reefs and underwater volcanoes are all found there. But because very few humans have been able to go far into the trench, scientists know very little about it.‎ Now they are working to change that. Recently, the Okeanos Explorer has been on an expedition there. It’s very dark, so the animals living there must use many other senses other than sight to understand their surroundings, find food, and escape from enemies. The water is also very cold — slightly above freezing — and its pressure is extremely high. That means only certain animals can live there, like shrimp, crabs, and starfish.‎ Scientists hope this expedition will help them unlock the mysteries of the Mariana Trench. They will learn about the deep-sea animals and plants found there. They will also study its unique features, including underwater mountains, mud volcanoes, and hot springs produced by underwater volcanoes.‎ They say that this knowledge will also help scientists better understand how the deepest part of the ocean affects the rest of the world. “The ocean plays a role in the air we breathe, the food we eat, and the transportation of the goods ‎ we buy — not to mention weather and climate change,” a scientist said. “The deep sea may also hold cures to diseases. How will we know what is out there if we aren’t looking for it?”‎ ‎ 32. What do we know about the Mariana Trench?‎ ‎ A. Creatures cannot live there.‎ ‎ B. It has never been explored by humans.‎ ‎ C. Its depth is twice the height of Mount Everest.‎ ‎ D. It’s lively even as the deepest place in the world.‎ ‎ 33. What is the life in the Mariana Trench like?‎ ‎ A. It is by no means easy. B. It is dangerous.‎ ‎ C. It makes creatures weak. D. It damages creatures’ sight.‎ ‎34. What is implied in the scientist’s words?‎ ‎ A. He feels proud of his work. ‎ ‎ B. It’s worthwhile to explore the Mariana Trench.‎ ‎ C. Humans should study the ocean at all costs.‎ ‎ D. The ocean affects the weather and climate.‎ ‎35. Which is the best title for this text?‎ ‎ A. The Most Mysterious Ocean.‎ ‎ B. A Special Experiment on the Ocean.‎ ‎ C. Searching for Precious Animals.‎ ‎ D. Exploring the Deep Sea.‎ 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 Sell a Used Book on the Internet Is your book collection getting out of hand? You can clean house and make some extra cash by selling your books online. There are a number of websites which can allow you to sell more books more quickly than you could sell locally, and you'll likely receive higher prices as well. To get the best fit, you’d better compare these online booksellers. 36 ‎ ‎ How much you have to pay the site. Some booksellers charge a flat fee per book, while others charge a commission(佣金) on the selling price. 37 Shop around to find the best deal for your particular situation, and make sure you understand exactly how much you'll have to pay when your book sells.‎ ‎ The site's shipping policy.
