From his early life, his path into acting and even in his choice of movie roles, we can see that Depp has seldom taken the easy road. His willingness to take risks and do the unexpected has made Depp one of the few Hollywood actors able to achieve huge commercial success while maintaining his artistic reputation. Born in 1963, Depp was somewhat troublesome as a youth, occasionally turning to petty-crime and drugs. When his parents divorced in 1978, Depp dropped out of school against his mother’s wishes and started a music band called the Kids. Although the band achieved some success, they were seldom able to make ends meet, with Depp often unable to pay his rent, sleeping rough on friends’ sofas and even in his car. In 1983, the ever-optimistic Depp and his new wife, Lori Anderson, moved to Hollywood California to further Depp’s musical career. But life there continued to be a struggle and Depp was forced to take a job selling pens door to door to support his new family. His luck changed when Lori’s ex-boyfriend, the famous actor Nicholas Cage, impressed by Depp’s good looks and intelligence, suggested he become an actor and helped him get a small part in a movie. Several other minor movie roles — and a divorce from Lori — followed, before Depp got his big break three years later. He landed the leading role in the television series 21 Jump Street, playing a youthful undercover police officer. The hugely popular show turned Depp into a teenage heartthrob overnight. He appeared on the cover of countless magazines and was much sought after by movie producers, eager to exploit his popularity with teenage girls. But Depp left 21 Jump Street after three years, when it was at the height of its popularity, later admitting that he hated the show’s unoriginal storylines and his “pretty boy” character. In the decade that followed, Depp rejected repeated offers of “pretty boy” roles in big-budget Hollywood films. Instead he established himself as a serious, somewhat dark, peculiar performer, consistently selecting roles in smaller, independent films that surprise critics and audiences alike. Even in the movie that made Depp an international superstar, The Pirates of the Caribbean (2003 ), he was barely recognizable as Captain Jack Sparrow, the British,long-haired golden-toothed pirate. This and subsequent hit movies have placed Depp at the very top of the commercial film industry ( with a pay-check of $20 million for each such movie) but he still continues to make the smaller, stranger films for which he is so greatly admired. 21. As a youth, Depp could be described as a _____. A. serious criminal B. trouble maker C. drug addict D. successful musician 22. The underlined expression “make ends meet” in Paragraph 2 is closest in meaning to________ A. get together after a show B. meet their audience C. play to the end D. earn enough to live 23. In which order did the following events take place in Depp’s life? a. met Nicholas Cage b. started a band called the Kids c. played a British pirate d. sold pens door to door e. got married to Lori Anderson f. starred in a TV show A. d, b, e, a, c, f B. b, e, d, a, f, c C. a, b, f, c, d, e D. e, d, a, c, f, b 24. Depp’s choice of movie roles throughout most of his career suggests that _____. A. he valued interesting work over money B. he believed he couldn’t play “pretty boy” roles well C. he was very popular with Hollywood movie producers D. he was more interested in shocking audiences than entertaining B Our warming planet is expected to face serious water crisis in the coming decades-----which means each nation’s natural resource will be more important than ever.

Canada D. Suriname C Dear child, Take a seat. Daddy has something to share with you. I would like us to have a heat-to-heart---even though, over the years, you have slowly broken mine. Oh shut up; you so have! If you go out and ask any mother or father out there, I guarantee they’ll say the same thing: All children break their parents’ hearts. It’s just what children do. In fact, it’s what Daddy’s own mother continues to remind him still, to this very day, every time they speak on the phone. In your baby years, you vomited(呕吐), pooped and peed all over me. In your teen years, you came home from parties and vomited red wine all over my already-dirty carpets. There was a time you experimented with drugs and all those things I hate. Where does the heartbreak end? Still, I want you to know you are loved, because various parenting magazines insist that’s my responsibility: to make you feel special and valued and so on and of course Daddy loves you! Don’t you see? And Daddy values you. Very much so. How could he not value you, when you, as a test-tube baby, cost so much to come into this world? Now you’re old enough to hear the truth about parenting. And it’s this: all kids annoy their parents. Like you, I started off adorable. Then I went through my weird-body-shape-and-acne years, lost all my cuteness, developed an attitude and never once did I apologize to my parents for stealing the best years of their lives. When you become a parent yourself, here are some parenting skills you might want to try that have been passed down from countless generations of angry Asians before me. Passive aggression is always welcome. Regular scream “I WISH YOU HAD NEVERY BEEN BORN” will help keep your own kid’s dignity and self-respect in check. But whatever happens, ensure you earn enough money in your adult life. Then give it to me, so I can go on expensive international tours. If you do this I promise I’ll stop complaining and have you alone, because we both know that’s what we really want. Love you lots, Cutie-Pie. Daddy 28. The letter is probably written to______ A. a young adult B. a little baby C. a parent D. a grandparent 29. The letter discusses all the topics EXCEPT_______. A. babyhood B. adolescent issues C. parenting D. death 30. According to the letter, the author______. A. uses to take drugs B. regrets getting married C. broke his parents hearts D. was born as a test-tube baby 31. Why does he author write the letter? A. To ask his child to earn more money B. To encourage his child to be independent C. To communicate to his child love and hope D. To stop his child from being a troublemaker D The fight is on to get rid of air pollution in our cities. While the best solution in the long-term would be to ban fossil-fueled cars, that won’t help the millions who are dying in the meantime, and so some high-tech solutions are now on the cards. In March 2016, 10 London pigeons became famous. These pigeons took to the sky from Primrose Hill in north London, wearing backpacks monitoring air pollution. Once in the air, the backpacks sent live air-quality updates to the smartphones of the Londoners below. The pigeons and their backpacks were just the latest in a series of increasingly desperate attempts to monitor and control air pollution. London’s air pollution problem has been getting worse for years, and it often rises to more than three times the European Union’s legal limit. Another promising approach can be found in Beijing, after China declared a “war against pollution” in 2014. A seven-metre-high “Smog Free Tower”, designed by a Dutch scientist, Daan Roosegaarde, opened in Beijing’s 751 D Park in September 2016. It is a huge, outdoor air purifier. Airborne particles(颗粒)are sucked into the tower where they receive a positive charge. The particles are then caught by a negatively charged dust-removal plate and clean air is blown out of the other end. “Changing smog particles does not take much current.” Roosegaarde said. As for what to do with the collected PM waste, he has currently set up a business making jewellery out of the waste. Prince Charles owns a set of “smog free” cufflinks(袖扣). If collected on at a big scale, Roosegaarde believes it could even be used as a building material. Mexico City has an alternative solution. Looking to Nature to maximize the surface area of a building, Allison Dring, a Berlin-based architect, managed to catch light and wind from all sides. She is now making a building material by burning agricultural crop by-products in the absence of oxygen. “It means that you are actually taking carbon(碳) out of the sky, transforming it into a material, and then using it to build,” says Dring. The fight against outdoor air pollution is really just starting. Even if none of the ideas take off, at least Prince Charles’ cufflinks, the special building surface and pigeons wearing back-packs will have brought the issue more to the public’s attention. 32. The 10 pigeons in London were used to _____. A. monitor air pollution B. warn Londoners C. update weather forecast D. promote backpacks 33. What can we learn about the Smog Free Tower? A. Its power consumption is high. B. PM waste from it can be reused. C. It is built of agricultural by-products. D. It can attract light and wind from all sides. 34. What’s the best title for the passage? A. When can humans get rid of smog? B. Why is technology used to fight smog? C. How are the world’s cities fighting smog? D. What makes smog a worldwide problem? 35. Which of the following shows the structure of the passage? 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 Land that job! “It’s always been my opinion that you have to think outside the box. You can’t be so worried about following the rules because then no one is going to know who you are,” says career coach Angela Copeland, author of Breaking The Rules & Getting The Job. “ 36 ” Copeland offers her top four rules to break while looking for a job.

For instance, walking around the campus, you can easily find an empty classroom with lights on. In the dining hall, large quantities of left-over food are thrown away every day. It’s also common that many students still use disposable products for convenience, which really results in the waste of materials. Accordingly, it is time that we took action to stop wasting on campus. First of all, it’s essential for us to turn off lights and other electrical appliances when we are not using them. Besides, buy food according to what you need. We should keep in mind that every grain is the fruit of hard work. Additionally, avoid using disposable products, which will surely contribute to the reduction of waste. Every little bit counts. Let’s start from the very little things around us and stop wasting.
