Fake news is written to attract attention, to trick people so they will look foolish, or to work as satire ( 讽 刺 ) making a point about society. But regardless of the source’s motivation, spreading fake news embarrasses you and harms others, so follow these steps to ensure you only share real news.‎ Check its grammar Legal news sites check their grammar carefully, so articles with many errors are usually fake. Also watch out for sentences written in all capital（大写的） letters and the use of multiple exclamation points（感叹号） at the ends of sentences. These are designed to bring about an ‎ emotional reaction, but they aren’t considered professional, so trustworthy publications don’t use them.‎ Read the whole article Even in real news articles, headlines sometimes overstate or simplify the point of the article. Before reacting, read the article carefully to make sure you understand the whole context. Sometimes the claims of fake news articles become unreasonable as the article goes on.‎ Consider the source If you’ve never heard of the publication, check the ―About‖ section on its website. Fake news sites often lack such a page, provide little information or even admit that they are fake. Also check an online article’s URL; if it ends with ―.com.co‖, it’s probably a fake news site.‎ Check the support Does the article support its claims with quotations and citation（s 引用）from experts? If not,‎ don’t trust it. If so, you should still look up those sources and make sure they actually say what the article claims. There are also websites, such as snopes.com, that will tell you whether the facts in online articles are accurate.‎ 56. What do we know about legal news sites?‎ A. They make grammatical mistakes.‎ B. They apply overstated headlines.‎ C. They fail to quote from experts.‎ D. They use some exclamation marks at one place.‎ 57. Which of the following sources is probably real?‎ A. ABC News whose URL is abcnew.com.co.‎ B. WTOE 5 news whose articles have a URL.‎ C. PolitiFact whose "About" page is in detail.‎ D. Boston Tribune whose ―About‖ section is missing.‎ B Metal-organic frameworks(MOFs) are compounds that are set to solve some tough challenges: producing water in the desert, removing greenhouse gases from the air and storing dangerous gases more safely.‎ The Arizona desert is really dry. Anyone stuck in it without water would die from dehydration （脱水） within three days. Unless, that is, they had one of Omar Yaghi’s next-generation water harvesters. Although daytime humidity（湿度）is only about 10 per cent, this rises to 40 per cent at night, which means there’s enough water in the atmosphere to support life — if it can be transformed into liquid form.‎ That’s exactly what Yaghi’s device does. It’s a box about the size of a small microwave oven designed to suck the humidity from the air at night and turn it into drinking water the next day using only the heat of the sun as its power source. What makes it work is a special material called a metal-organic framework (MOF), which at normal temperatures attracts water molecules (分子) onto its surface of its internal pores（细孔）. Warm it up and the water is released, each harvest producing one-third of a cup of pure drinking water.‎ ‎―With further improvements, a device, the size of a washing machine, could produce enough water for the basic needs of a household,‖ says Yaghi, a chemist at the University of California. One-third of the world’s population lacks safe drinking water; for them such a device ‎ could be a lifesaver.‎ These crystalline cluster（结晶群）of metals, such as aluminum or magnesium, linked by organic molecules can be made into materials with an extremely high absorption ability, attracting specific molecules to their surface. In this way, MOFs cling to a variety of liquids and gases.‎ MOFs work thanks to their unique structure---large quantities of nanometer-sized internal spaces. In fact one MOF has so many pores that they would cover an area as large as six football fields. MOFs are also extremely stable light and have many different uses: their molecular structure can be varied to attract specific molecules, such as water, and their pores can be designed to best store them. Adding a small amount of heat or pressure causes the MOF to release what it is holding. More than 70,000 different MOFs have been produced to date for various applications.‎ 56. Why is the Arizona desert mentioned in the second paragraph?‎ A. To introduce water harvesters.‎ B. To stress the importance of water.‎ C. To express the urgent need for water there.‎ D. To show its serious condition.‎ 57. What plays a vital role in water harvesters?‎ A. solar energy. B. water molecules.‎ C. a small microwave oven D. metal-organic frameworks.‎ 58. What does the underlined phrase "cling to" in paragraph 5 probably mean?‎ A. hold onto B. break down C. give off D. turn into 59. What will probably be covered in the following paragraphs?‎ A. The future of the MOF technology.‎ B. Other uses of the MOF technology.‎ C. The limitation of the MOF technology.‎ D. The improvement of the MOF technology.‎ C I'm sitting in my kitchen in London, trying to figure out a text message from my brother. He lives in our home country of Germany. We speak German to each other, a language that's rich in odd words, but I've never heard this one before: fremdschämen. I'm too proud to ask him what it means. I know that eventually, I'll get it. Still, it's slightly painful to realize that after years of living abroad, my mother tongue can sometimes feel foreign.‎ Most long-term migrants know what it's like to be a slightly rusty（生疏的） native speaker. The process seems obvious: the longer you are away, the more your language suffers. But it's not quite so straightforward.‎ In fact, the science of why, when and how we lose our own language is complex and often different to what we think. It turns out that how long you've been away doesn't always matter. Socializing with other native speakers abroad can worsen your own native skills. And emotional factors like trauma（精神创伤） can be the biggest factor of all.‎ It's not just long-term migrants who are affected, but to some extent anyone who picks up a second language. ―The minute you start learning another language, the two systems start to compete with each other,‖ says Monika Schmid, a linguist at the University of Essex.‎ Schmid is a leading researcher of language attrition, a growing field of research that looks at what makes us lose our mother tongue. In children, the phenomenon is somewhat easier to ‎ explain since their brains are generally more flexible and adaptable. Until the age of about 12, a person's language skills are relatively easy to change. Studies on international adoptees have found that even nine-year-olds can almost completely forget their first language when they are removed from their country of birth.‎ But in adults, the first language is unlikely to disappear entirely except in extreme circumstances. For example, Schmid analyzed the German of elderly German-Jewish wartime refugees（难民） in the UK and the US. The main factor that influenced their language skills wasn't how long they had been abroad or how old they were when they left. It was how much trauma they had experienced as victims. Those who left Germany in the early days of Nazi occupation, before the worst violence, tended to speak better German – despite having been abroad the longest. Those who left later, tended to speak German with difficulty or not at all.‎ ‎―It seemed very clearly a result of this trauma,‖ says Schmid. Even though German was the language of childhood, home and family, it was also the language of painful memories. The most traumatised refugees had held them back. As one of them said: ―I feel that Germany betrayed me. America is my country, and English is my language.‖‎ 56. What do paragraph 5 and 6 mainly talk about?‎ A. The reasons behind the loss of people's mother tongue.‎ B. The way to deal with the loss of the native language.‎ C. How the native language coexists with the new one.‎ D. How trauma leads to decrease in the native language.‎ 57. Why does trauma cause a person's first language to disappear?‎ A. Because he has great trouble learning the first language.‎ B. Because his ability to communicate is affected by trauma.‎ C. Because his country betrays his trust in it again and again.‎ D. Because he chooses to hide away from miserable experience.‎ 58. What is the best title for the passage?‎ A. Who will lose native language?‎ B. Will you lose your native language?‎ C. How does trauma affect your first language?‎ D. How far are you from your mother tongue?‎ D Shan Tianfang, died at 83 on Sept. 11,2018 in Beijing because of multiple organ failure. His energetic oral interpretations of classical Chinese novels and historical events pushed the ancient pingshu tradition forward into the modern age for generations of Chinese.‎ Mr. Shan tried for many years to avoid becoming a performer of pingshu, the Song dynasty-era storytelling tradition. Growing up in the1950s in a family of folk art performers, he had seen struggle firsthand. It was a life of constant financial troubles and low social status. So it was with great unwillingness when, out of financial necessity, he became an apprentice（徒弟） to a family friend who was a master of pingshu. He made his first public appearance in 1956.‎ In the pingshu tradition, the performer wears a traditional gown and sits behind a desk equipped with a folding fan and a wooden block. The storyteller tells a legend — typically a classical Chinese epic — from memory, using different voices and exaggerated gestures as well as adding occasional background detail and commentary.‎ Mr. Shan grew to love the storytelling form, which is popular across northern China. It is a demanding profession that combines acting, oration, writing, historical research and literary ‎ criticism and requires countless hours of memorization. In teahouses around the northeastern region, he became famous for his fresh takes on the classics.‎ In 1976, many Chinese were hungry for some new forms of entertainment, and it was against this background that he grasped the opportunity to record a pingshu radio broadcast. He soon discovered that performing on radio was vastly different from doing so in teahouses. There were no props（道具）, no reactions from the audience to guide him — just Mr. Shan and the microphone in a recording studio. So for his first radio performance, a shortened version of the historical novel ―The Romance of Sui and Tang Dynasties,‖ Mr. Shan used the studio’s three recording technicians as his audience and adjusted his performance based on their reactions.‎ The performance had its first appearance in 1980 on Chinese New Year, and more than 100 million Chinese were estimated to have tuned in during the 56 hours over which it was broadcast. It was the beginning of a dramatic second act both for Mr. Shan and for pingshu in the People’s Republic of China. He was soon a household name across the country.‎ Over six decades, Mr. Shan recorded more than 110 stories for radio and television totaling about 12,000 episodes and lasting 6,000 hours. His best-known works include his interpretations of Chinese classics like ―White-Eyebrow Hero‖ and ―Sanxia Wuyi‖ and his dramatizations of historical figures like Zhuge Liang and Lin Zexu.‎ Even today, hop into a Beijing taxi and the driver may be listening to one of Mr. Shan’s recordings. ―For my generation, Shan Tianfang was a master,‖ said Zhao Fuwei, 48, a Beijing taxi driver. ―If back then there was such thing as a viral star, then Shan Tianfang was definitely the hottest viral star.‖‎ ‎―Listening to his stories has made it easier to kill time in bad traffic,‖ Mr. Zhao added. ―He was so good at making complicated historical stories simple and interesting. You feel like you could empathize with the characters in his stories, even though they lived a long time ago.‖‎ But in recent years many of the great pingshu performers have died, and the tradition is fading. By the time Mr. Shan retired in 2007, interest in pingshu among Chinese had all but been replaced by mobile phones and gaming.Nevertheless, even after retiring, Mr. Shan worked tirelessly to promote pingshu among young Chinese, instructing apprentices and starting a school dedicated to the folk arts.‎ Ever willing to adapt to new technologies, he posted a message to his Sina Weibo microblog account on Sept. 6, five days before his death. It was an announcement about a new live-streamed（直播） lecture series about pingshu.‎ 56. In the 1950s, Chinese folk art performers .‎ A. got no pay for their performance.‎ B. were looked down on by the public.‎ C. were always from an artistic family.‎ D. won popularity with common people.‎ 57. What is the third paragraph mainly about?‎ A. The origin of pingshu. B. The types of pingshu.‎ C. The performance of pingshu. D. The performers of pingshu.‎ 58. Why did Mr. Shan start his radio performance?‎ A. To expand his pingshu career.‎ B. To cater to the audience's needs.‎ C. To challenge himself in performance.‎ A. To make pingshu the main focus of attention.‎ 57. What does the underlined sentence in paragraph 9 probably imply?‎ A. The audience get a chance to communicate with the characters.‎ B. The audience can remember the different characters easily.‎ C. The audience hope to experience things happening to the characters.‎ D. The audience can understand the characters feelings and experiences.‎ 58. Which words can best describe Mr. Shan?‎ A. flexible and devoted B. adaptable and generous.‎ C. grateful and open-minded D. sympathetic and strong-willed.‎ 59. What's the authors' purpose of writing the text?‎ A. To promote the Chinese folk art— pingshu.‎ B. To stress the achievement of Shan Tianfang.‎ C. To give a brief introduction of Shan Tianfang.‎ D. To show ShanTianfang's effort to develop pingshu.‎ ‎ ‎ 第Ⅱ卷 （两部分，共 35 分） ‎ ‎ ‎ 第四部分 任务型阅读（共 10 小题；每小题 1 分，满分 10 分） ‎ 请认真阅读下列短文，并根据所读内容在文章后表格中的空格里填入一个最恰当的单词。注意：每个空格只填 1 个单词。请将答案写在答题卡上相应题号的横线上。 ‎ An inferiority complex（自卑情结） as the name suggests is a complex in which an individual has strong feelings of inferiority. While we all have weak points, the person with an inferiority complex will focus on these weaknesses and use them to evaluate their overall worth. As a result, they see themselves generally less important or successful than others.‎ In some cases inferiority complex can lead to overcompensation. Here the individual does everything in his power to overcome his inferiority and this can mean that they end up in highly successful jobs, gaining great wealth and succeeding in powerful relationships. However while such a person might be a high achiever, a sense of inferiority will mean that they will always be less happy than they could be and it may have other negative impacts on their life.‎ Another possible outcome of an inferiority complex is that the individual ends up backing down from difficult situations and acting without any sense of worth or entitlemen（t 权利）. Here the person’s low self belief changes the way he behaves, and that in turn changes the way he is treated by others which in turn results in him actually becoming inferior in some ways.‎ There are many factors that may lead to inferiority, but they tend to be the result of conditioned beliefs that come from continuous failure or criticism. Often parental attitudes can result in an inferiority complex if the child did not receive the right encouragement or unconditional love when growing up. In some cases an inferiority complex could also arise as a result of some kind of defect（缺陷） either physical or mental.‎ If you are suffering from an inferiority complex, it's time that you did something about it.‎ One of the very best ways to improve your self esteem is to find a loving partner. This is a great way to make you more confident as he or she will love you for who you are and always be there to support you and increase your confidence. Another is to take up a hobby. Find one thing that you are good at and then get your confidence from that. For instance, you might choose to take up a sport or woodwork, and then you can practice getting better at that and gain more ‎ confidence. Moreover, you can turn to self-help book. If you find the right books and follow the advice carefully, then it is possible to transform the way you view yourself and the way you present yourself.‎ Concept of an inferiority complex An inferiority complex refers to a 71 of self-worth and a mental state where people think they are not as good as others.‎ Outcomes of an inferiority complex ● People with an inferiority complex may misjudge their value and consider other people 72 to themselves.‎ ● People with an inferiority complex are likely to spare no 73 to fight inferiority and becomes a higher achiever finally, but they may still feel less happy.‎ ● An inferiority complex can lead people to 74 from difficult situations and act improperly.‎ ‎ 75 of an inferiority complex ● People who often lose out or are blamed continuously are more 76 to suffer from an inferiority complex.‎ ● Children having no 77 to unconditional parental love and proper encouragement tend to have an inferiority complex.‎ ● Physical or mental disabilities can increase the chances of an inferiority complex.‎ Suggestions on overcoming an inferiority complex ● Find a loving partner who will always love you and be around to ‎ 78 you, which helps you be more confident.‎ ● Choose something you are 79 in and practise it for better, thus getting your confidence developed and increased.‎ ● Find the most suitable self-help books and do as they advise, and you can change 80 you view and represent yourself.‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ 第五部分书面表达（满分 25 分） ‎ 请认真阅读下列材料，并按要求用英语写一篇 150 词左右的文章。‎ Li Jiang, 15 May, Sunny Today, I was excited to have finished my homework although we had much more than usual.

On the one hand, since we always settle the troubles by searching for solutions online, we tend to become very lazy and don't bother to think up answers independently, which would hold back the development of creative thinking. Besides, if we depend heavily on the Internet for answers, we may lose not only the ability to solve problems but also the interest in study. On the other hand, the answers online may be inaccurate or wrong.

I didn’t think she was very happy working here.‎ Text 4‎ M: I haven’t been feeling so well since we had dinner. Maybe I should go see a doctor. ‎ W: Why don’t you lie down for a while? I’ll call the front desk and see if they can call a doctor for us. (4)‎ Text 5‎ W: I can’t stand waiting in line! There are so many other things we have to do, and we have so little time to do them. ‎ M: Well, we can’t just leave. There’s nothing we can do now. We just have to relax and deal with it. (5)‎ Text 6‎ W: Do you shop online? It’s so simple. (6) I can get whatever I want with a click of a button! ‎ M: I shop online a lot. I prefer it because I really don’t like going to crowded stores. It feels less stressful to shop from my computer. Also, I can find things online that sometimes aren’t in ‎ stores. ‎ W: That’s true! But I don’t like it when I receive something I ordered, and it doesn’t look like it did on the computer.‎ M: Well, most companies have a return policy, so you can send it right back and have your money returned. (7) It’s easy.‎ Text 7‎ W: What do you need me to help you with, Bob?‎ M: Our teacher asked us to do a practice job interview.‎ W: OK. What type of job? Do you want to work in a school, like our dad? (10)‎ M: No. I want to work at the store and get some sales experience first. (8)‎ W: OK. First question: Why should I hire you?‎ M: Well, I am friendly and I am good at math.‎ W: You might want to give longer answers. (9) Try saying: I am friendly, work well with others, and I know how to handle money. What about your weaknesses?‎ M: I don’t have any.‎ W: You can’t say that. Nobody is perfect. ‎ Text 8‎ M: Thank you for calling McDonald’s. How can I help you? (11)‎ W: Hi, can I have the Barbecue Chicken Burger Meal? (11)‎ M: I’m sorry, madam. We don’t have that anymore. Would you like to try something else, instead?‎ W: OK, then I’ll have the Double Cheeseburger Meal, with medium French fries and a Coke.‎ M: Sure. Would you like to supersize your meal?‎ W: What does that mean?‎ M: For an extra dollar, you get large French fries and a large Coke, instead.‎ W: Sure. And I want one ice cream, too. When will the food arrive? (12)‎ M: Usually half an hour to 45 minutes, but because of the rain, it will be closer to an hour. (12) Do you still want the ice cream? (13) It will probably melt.‎ W: You’re right. OK, cancel that for me. (13)‎ M: Sure. Your new total is $8.20. Have a good day!‎ Text 9‎ M: So Heather — you told me you got some good news this week?‎ W: I did. I am the new head of the communications department.‎ M: Good for you! How did that happen?‎ W: My boss loved the work I did on the new travel ads. (14) Obviously, they were very well received by our customers.‎ M: So, what does that mean? Do you get a big pay raise? ‎ W: Not yet. They will evaluate my performance in a year from now. ‎ M: Lucky you! So, how is your new job different from your old one? (15)‎ W: Basically, I get to choose my own projects and manage my own team. (15) I even get my own secretary.‎ M: I’ve always thought you were a good leader. (16) And you always have brilliant ideas for advertisement. (14)‎ W: Thanks. I’ve worked really hard to get where I am.‎ M: So, what are you working on now?‎ W: I still have a couple of other projects I’m working on. I won’t get my new title until the first of next month.

He’s on the Macao side of the Hong Kong-Zhuhai-Macao Bridge. Obviously, there is a traffic jam about two kilometers from the end. Traffic going into Macao has been slow for an hour. The cause of this traffic jam is an accident on the right side of the bridge between a small bus and two taxis. Police and medical vehicles have been at the scene for half an hour already. Reporter Sam Wong says it appears that three people have been taken to the hospital with serious injuries. (19) Five more people are getting medical help at the scene for less serious injuries. This accident is affecting the Macao-to-Zhuhai direction the most, and police are not allowing many ‎ transport vehicles onto the bridge. Sam Wong reports that police hope to get traffic moving again within 45 minutes. So, the mess shouldn’t last much longer, but avoid driving near the bridge entrance for now. (20)‎
