In many ways, 2018 had proven an arduous year. My teenage daughter had left home for university, my job of 23 years was no more, and a creative project I’d given my all to for years had also been suddenly called off. I also found out a person I considered a friend was far from it.‎ A year earlier, I’d dreamt about an earthquake. In the dream, a red light flashed inside a building and then the earth began to rock. Walls fell down on me as I ran into the open, feeling sorry for the people I hadn’t loved enough. Before I was buried completely by the falling world, I shouted, “Abuelo, ayudame,” in my native Spanish. “Grandfather, help me!”‎ Now, with the very real aftershocks of a series of unexpected endings, I walked into a little flower shop to buy a gift for a friend. The gentleman at the shop looked at me and turned away for a moment, returning with a fragrant flower. “For you. You need to smile today,” he said in a rich and beautiful accent, offering me the flower with eyes full of care. It took all my strength not to cry. Then he gave me a grandfatherly hug that made me want to tell him everything.‎ Instead, I thanked him and headed for the train. How did he know? I wondered. For the first time in weeks, I felt hope.‎ ‎24. The underlined word in the second paragraph means “_____________”.‎ A. puzzled B. mixed C. hard D. meaningful ‎25. What is the third paragraph mainly about?‎ A. A detailed description of the author’s dream.‎ B. The help that the author got from his grandfather.‎ C. An earthquake that the author came across before.‎ D. The author’s sorry thoughts for the people he hadn’t loved enough.‎ ‎26. What drove the author to walk into the flower shop?‎ A. Series of unexpected things. B. The fragrant flowers in the shop.‎ C. The gentleman in the flower shop. D. The idea of sending a gift to a friend.‎ ‎27. Why did the author feel hope in the end?‎ A. Because the gentleman showed his concern for the author.‎ B. Because the gentleman gave the author a grandfatherly hug.‎ C. Because the gentleman at the shop sent him a fragrant flower.‎ D. Because the gentleman said some words in a rich and beautiful accent.‎ C Actor Warwick Davis realized he was shorter than other people when he was eight years old. He suddenly noticed all his schoolmates were twice his size. It was then that the effect of having dwarfism（侏儒症）hit him for the first time.‎ Now aged 48, Davis says, “I have very fond memories of school but I realized I had to become a little bit louder and funnier so I wouldn’t get left out of conversations. I became quite the performer, so being short was my training in acting.”‎ It worked. Director George Lucas cast young Warwick as the Ewok Wicket in Return of the Jedi. The actor has gone on to star in many TV shows and films, including playing Professor Flitwick in the Harry Potter films.‎ Warwick’s dwarfism means he is 1.07 meters tall, while the average UK adult male height is 1.78 meters. Most types of dwarfism are caused by a genetic disorder that stops some of the body’s building blocks working properly.‎ Davis has a positive attitude to being “different”. He says, “If I had my life all over again, I would choose the same job and be the same height. I have enjoyed every minute. At school I played rugby and football and tried long jump and high jump. I wasn’t very good at them but I always had a go. I defeated everyone at chin-ups (引体向上) because I had a low body weight combined with a strong upper body from ‎ climbing up to the top cupboards to reach the biscuit boxes at home.”‎ Warwick is supporting Jeans for Genes Day, a charity raising public concern for millions of children born with genetic disorders in the U.K. He says, “Even if you can only give a tiny amount of money, it will make such a difference to the children.”‎ ‎28. Why did Warwick Davis decide to become a little bit louder and funnier?‎ A. It was his training in his acting.‎ B. He didn’t want to be ignored by his classmates.‎ C. The effect of having dwarfism influenced him strongly.‎ D. The genetic disorder prevented his body from working properly.‎ ‎29. What can be inferred from paragraph 5?‎ A. Davis has a positive attitude to being “different”.‎ B. Davis turns his short body to his advantage at chin-ups.‎ C. Davis is not fond of rugby and football, long jump and high jump. ‎ D. Davis doesn’t want to choose the same job if he can live his life again.‎ ‎30. Warwick Davis can be best described as “___________”.‎ A. pleased B. independent C. sensitive D. confident ‎31. Which of the following can be the best title for the text?‎ A. My Strong Upper Body B. Dwarfism Caused by Genetic Disorder C. Height Is Not My Limitation D. More Money, Bigger Difference D A recent American survey found that 54% of people give up on their dieting effort within six months, with only 8% succeeding by the end of the year. That is to say, although it has been two weeks since you officially started that diet, chances are that you have struggled more than expected. If so, perhaps you can turn to Richard Wiseman on a YouTube channel.‎ On his YouTube channel, Richard Wiseman offers 10 different tips to stop you overeating. From switching to smaller plates (not because you’ll reduce food quantity, but because your meal size will appear larger), to putting mirrors in your kitchen, his advice is designed to persuade your brain into eating less.‎ Perhaps his most simple piece of advice is to use some red tableware (餐具). Wiseman explains: “Research shows that people eat fewer snacks when served on red plates, perhaps because red is associated with stop. When you have the choice, go ‎ for red plates and bowls.”‎ Wiseman is the best-selling author of popular books such as Quirkology, 59 Seconds and The Luck Factor and has a professorship at the University of Hertfordshire.‎ Other clever tips in his video include using your less-used hand when reaching for snacks, swapping wide glasses for tall thin ones and eating chewing gum when you feel hungry. But remember to avoid mint (薄荷) flavour, as it makes other foods taste strange! You might also want to consider taking a photograph of all the unhealthy food you eat, as Wiseman suggests, this could help you cut down on unhealthy eating by a third.‎ ‎32. What is the function of the first paragraph?‎ A. It presents the findings of a survey. B. It recommends a YouTube channel.‎ C. It encourages the reader to read on. D. It persuades people to give up dieting.‎ ‎33. Richard Wiseman suggests using smaller plates _________.‎ A. to avoid wasting food B. to save money on tableware C. to make you believe you are eating a lot D. to make you believe the food tastes less good ‎34. You could find the tips _______.‎ A. on his video website B. in Richard Wiseman’s books C. in his restaurant D. by attending his lecture in the university ‎35. Which of the following does Richard Wiseman agree with?‎ A. Eating gum of mint flavour. B. Using green plates and bowls.‎ C. Drinking wine directly from the bottle. D. Taking a picture of your unhealthy food.‎ 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。‎ I have seen how having an animal in your life can make things much better for all concerned. Here are some reasons.‎ A pet’s love never stops.‎ ‎  (36)  . Even if you cannot return that unconditional love, just knowing that it is there will make your life better.‎ Caring for something other than yourself is emotionally healthy.‎ Giving and getting a little love, even if you have to say “sit down” 270 times a day, can take your mind off your troubles and help you to see what really matters.‎ ‎  (37)  . ‎ If you have a dog, you need to take it (and yourself) on walks. Dogs are happiest when they are walking. And it’s common knowledge that taking regular walks is also good for your heart and brain health.‎ Just the act of petting a creature lowers your blood pressure and helps you relax. ‎ The next time you are feeling uncomfortable, I suggest going to your local shelter and giving some love to an animal there.   (38)  , but notice how you feel when the two of you are exchanging emotional energy. And don’t be surprised if you do adopt!‎ Saving a life will make yours better.‎ ‎  (39)  , but what about the used ones? All my animals have been rescued, and they are as sweet as can be.‎ Maybe you think you don’t have enough room in your heart.‎ You may already have a family to love, and that is totally wonderful.   (40)   I know not everybody is an animal lover, but if you think you might be, don’t lose this chance.‎ A. You won’t have to take it home B. Some people want lovely pets C. Having a pet is also physically healthy D. If you want more love in your life, consider a pet E. Taking your dog for a walk can make your dog happy F. Some people prefer their new puppy to be from a pet store G. No matter what, your pet will always love you and remember you 第三部分: 英语知识运用（共两节， 满分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，从短文后所给各题的四个选项（A、B、C和D）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。‎ Sitting at a table in my school cafeteria, I looked around, slowly taking in everything. Student after student 41 my table carrying that day’s lunch special, but if you looked deeper, more things deserved your 42 . There was more than just the uniform they were wearing, or the way they had 43 their hair that day. It suddenly 44 me as I watched classmate after classmate walk by, that I did not know much about 45 at my high school.‎ I waved politely after 46 the sight of a girl in my grade sitting at a nearby table. She smiled 47 and then continued to pick at the spaghetti in front of her. If I hadn’t 48 recently that her mother had died, I would never have thought anything was wrong. But isn’t that how it 49 works? Without knowing the whole story, we 50 others too quickly.‎ I realized that everyone may have some difficulties they are facing in their lives, 51 why do we so often make it harder for each other?

But about half a hour later, the sun was disappeared and it began to rain. The wave was kind of scary. My father asked me to go home. I wanted to stay, hoped that the rain would stop soon.
