The companies include some of the heavyweights of the industry, like Electronic Arts Productions, Insomniac Games, Activision and Disney.‎ The strike comes in light of an unsuccessful 19 months of negotiations after the existing labor contract known as the Interactive Media Agreement expired in late 2014. Overall, the strike is an effort to provide more secondary compensation along with other concerns, such as transparency upon hiring talent and on-set (制作中) safety precautions.‎ The video gaming industry has ballooned in recent years. The Los Angeles Times reports that the industry is in the midst of an intense increase in cash flow. In 2015, gaming produced $23.5 billion in domestic revenue.‎ But SAG-AFTRA says voice actors don’t receive residuals (追加酬金) for their gaming work. Instead, they receive a fixed rate, which is typically about $825 for a standard four-hour vocal session.‎ ‎ So the voice actors are pushing for the idea of secondary compensation—a performance bonus every time a game sells 2 million copies or downloads, or reaches 2 million subscribers, with a cap at 8 million.‎ ‎“It’s a very small number of games that would trigger this secondary compensation issue,” said voice actor Crispin Freeman, who’s a member of the union’s negotiating committee. “This is an important aspect of what it means to be a freelance (从事自由职业的) performer, who isn’t regularly enjoyed every single day working on projects.”‎ Another major complaint from the actors is the secrecy of the industry. “I can’t imagine if there’s any other acting job in the world where you don’t know what show you’re in, when you’re hired,” says voice actor Keythe Farley, who chairs the SAG-AFTRA negotiating committee.‎ ‎“And yet that happens every day in the video game world,” Farley told reporters during a press conference Friday. “I was a main character in Fallout 4, a character by the name of Kellogg, and I never knew that I was doing vocal recording for that game throughout the year and a half.”‎ Scott Witlin, the lawyer representing the video game companies, says voice actors “represent less than one tenth of l percent of the work that goes into making a video game.” So “even though they’re the top craftsmen in their field,” Witlin says, “if we pay them under a vastly different system than the people who do the 99.9 percent of the work, that’s going to create far more problems for the video game companies.”‎ ‎40. Why did SAG-AFTRA declare a strike against some video game publishers?‎ A. It had been cheated repeatedly in the 19 months of talks.‎ B. The labor contract between them had been violated.‎ C. The negotiations between them had broken down.‎ D. Its appeal to renegotiate the contract had been rejected.‎ ‎41. What do we learn from the passage about the video gaming industry?‎ A. It has invested a lot in its domestic market.‎ B. It has attracted many famous voice actors.‎ C. It has become more open and transparent.‎ D. It has gained huge profits in recent years.‎ ‎42. What are the voice actors demanding?‎ A. Extra pay based on sales revenues. B. A non-discriminatory contract.‎ C. A limit on the maximum work hours. D. More regular employment.‎ ‎43. What does Keythe Farley say about voice actors?‎ A. They are not paid on a regular basis.‎ B. They are kept in the dark about many details of their job.‎ C. They are discriminated against in the gaming industry.‎ D. They are not employed full-time.‎ ‎44. What is the argument of lawyer Scott Witlin?‎ A. Changing the pay system would cause the industry more problems.‎ B. Paying voice actors on an hourly basis is in fine with the law.‎ C. Voice actors should have a pay raise if they prove to be top craftsmen.‎ D. Voice actors are mere craftsmen, not professional performers.‎ ‎【答案】40. C 41. D 42. A 43. B 44. A ‎【解析】‎ 这是一篇说明文。美国演员工会针对配音演员酬劳协商无果的问题进行了罢工。近年来美国游戏行业快速发展，游戏公司从中获得巨大利润，但配音演员的酬劳却一直维持不变，故他们希望可以按照游戏销售量获得额外的报酬。但律师认为如果改变声音演员的报酬系统，游戏公司将会面临更多的问题，因为他们只做了其中少之又少的工作。‎ ‎【40题详解】‎ 细节理解题。根据文章第二段的The strike comes in light of an unsuccessful 19 months of negotiations after the existing labor contract known as the Interactive Media Agreement expired in late 2014.可知，由于为期19个月的谈判没有成功，SAG-AFTRA决定采取罢工来对抗一些游戏制作公司。C. The negotiations between them had broken down.（他们之间的谈判失败了）符合以上说法，故选C项。‎ ‎【41题详解】‎ 细节理解题。根据文章第三段的The video gaming industry has ballooned in recent years.

It has gained huge profits in recent years.（近年来获得了巨大利润）符合以上说法，故选D项。‎ ‎【42题详解】‎ 细节理解题。根据文章第四段的So the voice actors are pushing for the idea of secondary ‎ compensation---a performance bonus every time a game sells 2 million copies or downloads, or reaches 2 million subscribers, with a cap at 8 million.可知，配音演员要求得到额外的补偿——每款游戏卖出200万份拷贝或下载，或者拥有200万订阅者（最高800万），配音演员可以得到一份表演奖金，即配音演员希望按游戏销售量得到额外的报酬。A. Extra pay based on sales revenues.（按收益得到额外的报酬）符合以上说法，故选A项。‎ ‎【43题详解】‎ 细节理解题。根据文章第六段的“I can’t imagine if there’s any other acting job in the world where you don’t know what show you’re in, when you’re hired,” says voice actor可知，Keythe Farley说配音演员在被雇佣时不知道自己在演什么角色，即她认为他们在被雇佣时不知道和工作相关的信息。B.

Changing the pay system would cause the industry more problems.（改变酬劳习题会给游戏行业带来更多问题）符合以上说法，故选A项。‎ C Imagine your body is like the house you live in. Every day, your family creates rubbish. The rubbish builds up until it is put out for the weekly garbage collection.‎ Now, say you put three bags of garbage out, but because one of the collectors was away sick, only two bags are collected. You take the leftover bag inside to be put out again next week. The following week you put out another three bags, plus the leftover bag from last week. But again, only two bags are collected. Imagine this cycle is repeated over the following weeks.‎ This is a simple description of what happens to your body when your kidneys (肾) don’t work efficiently. Your body is not thoroughly emptied of waste products. Other areas of the body such as blood pressure and red blood cell production are affected and the insidious process that may lead to kidney failure begins.‎ It’s not uncommon for people to lose up to 90 percent of their kidney function before developing any symptoms. There may be no warning signs. This makes early detection(诊察) difficult.‎ Kidney’s main job is to remove toxins (毒素) and unwanted water from our blood. Every day our kidneys clean an average of 200 litres of blood. Kidney failure may be a gradual and silent process, going unnoticed because there is no apparent pain.‎ Research shows that more than 25 percent of patients found to require dialysis (透析) do not see a kidney specialist until less than 90 days before dialysis starts. Some risk factors for kidney disease such as age and genetic make-up are out of our control; however, some changes in lifestyle may help prevent kidney damage. Two major risk factors for kidney disease, diabetes and high blood pressure, have been on the rise over the last few decades. Both conditions are chiefly affected by being overweight and not getting enough exercise, which are the potential factors for the disease.‎ ‎45. The author gives the example of the house we live in to indicate that ________.‎ A. it’s safe and harmless for our body to keep some waste B. it doesn’t matter much if the waste in our body is not emptied in time C. it’s important for our body to empty the waste in time every day D. our body will not produce any waste if our kidneys work efficiently ‎46. The underlined word “insidious” (in Paragraph 3) means ________.‎ A. gradual and unnoticed B. apparent and fast C. smooth and safe D. painful and long ‎47. We can infer that when we find some symptoms related to our kidneys, ________.‎ A. the kidney failure begins B. the kidneys may have been seriously damaged C. we have lost about 10 percent of kidney function D. the kidneys can still work properly ‎48. How many factors of kidney disease are mentioned in the passage?‎ A. Three. B. Four. C. Five. D. Six.‎ ‎49. Which of the following helps prevent kidney damage?‎ A. Go to see a kidney specialist shortly before dialysis starts.‎ B. Go to see a kidney specialist whenever you find any warning sign.‎ C. Try to keep low blood pressure and a stable lifestyle.‎ D. Take enough exercise and make early detection of kidney disease.‎ ‎【答案】45. C 46. A 47. B 48. D 49. D ‎【解析】‎ 这是一篇说明文。我们的肾脏就像我们的家一样，需要及时排除垃圾。文章主要讲述了肾脏出现问题的原因，以及巨大危害，分析了肾脏问题出现的重要因素，并指出如何预防肾病。‎ ‎【45题详解】‎ 推理判断题。根据文章一二段的内容，以及第三段的This is a simple description of what happens to your body when your kidneys (肾) don’t work efficiently.可推断，作者列举家庭处理垃圾情况的主要目的是让我们明白身体和家一样需要及时处理垃圾，不然对身体有害。C. it’s important for our body to empty the waste in time every day（对于我们的身体来说每天及时排空垃圾很重要）符合以上说法，故选C项。‎ ‎【46题详解】‎ 词义猜测题。根据第三段的Other areas of the body such as blood pressure and red blood cell production are affected and the insidious process that may lead to kidney failure begins.和第四段的There may be no warning signs.可知，肾功能的变化是由身体其它变化引起的，是一个渐变的过程，而且这个变化没有任何警示，故推测划线词的意思是“逐渐的/慢慢的，无法察觉的”。A. gradual and unnoticed（逐渐的，看不见的）符合以上推测，故选A项。‎ ‎【47题详解】‎ 推理判断题。根据文章第四段的It’s not uncommon for people to lose up to 90 percent of their kidney function before developing any symptoms. There may be no warning signs.可知，90%的症状在被确诊之前是看不出来的，而且没有任何的预警，故推测当人们发现肾病症状时，肾可能已经严重受损。B. the kidneys may have been seriously damaged（肾脏可能已经严重受损）符合以上推测，故选B项。‎ ‎【48题详解】‎ 细节理解题。根据文章最后一段内容age and genetic make-up, diabetes and high blood pressure, overweight and not getting enough exercise,（衰老，基因组成，糖尿病，高血压，超重和不运动）可知，这六项都是导致肾病的原因。故选D项。‎ ‎【49题详解】‎ 推理判断题。根据文章第四段的There may be no warning signs. This makes early detection(诊察) difficult. 和第六段的Both conditions are chiefly affected by being overweight and not getting enough exercise, which are the potential factors for the disease.可推测，早期诊察，做足够的锻炼可以预防肾损伤。D. Take enough exercise and make early detection of kidney disease.‎ ‎（做足够的锻炼和肾脏的早期诊察可以预防肾损伤）符合以上说法，故选D项。‎ D The age of adulthood is by definition arbitrary. If everyone matured at the same, fixed rate, it wouldn’t be a human process. Indeed, maturation happens at varying speeds across different categories within the same individual, so I’d say I was easily old enough to vote at 16, but nobody should have given me a credit card until I was 32, and I’ve got the county court judgment to prove it.‎ However, we broadly agree that there’s a difference between a child and an adult, even if we might argue about the transition point. So the political theorist David Runciman’s view that six-year-olds should be allowed to vote goes against any standard argument about the age of civic responsibility. Nobody would say that a six-year-old could be held criminally responsible, could be sent to war, could be capable of consent, could be given responsibility for anything. So allowing them the vote—along with, unavoidably, seven-year-olds who are even sillier, if anything—is quite an amusing proposal.‎ Runciman’s argument is that this is the only way to rebalance political life, which is currently twisted in favor of the old, who don’t (he added) ever need to demonstrate mental capacity, even long after they’ve lost it.‎ The first part of his case is self-evident: pensions are protected while children’s centers are closed, concepts such as sovereignty (最高权威) are prioritized over the far more urgent business of the future: climate change. Nostalgia (怀念) for a past the young wouldn’t even recognize plays a central role, which is completely unfair.‎ Most of the arguments against giving six-year-olds a vote are that children would end up voting for something damaging and chaotic, if someone made unrealistic promises to them, which could never be realized. Well, it’s not children’s fault.‎ Having said that, children do tend towards the progressive, having a natural sense of justice (which kicks in at the age of six months, psychologists have shown, by creating scenes of great unfairness to babies, and making them cry) and an underdeveloped sense of self-interest. My kid, when he was six, made quite a forceful case against private property, on the basis that, since everybody needed a house, they shouldn’t cost money, because nobody would want anyone else not to have one. Also, food should be free. It was a kind of pre-Marx communism, where you limit the coverage of the market to only those things that you wouldn’t mind someone else not having.‎ On that particular day, when we were registered as voters, my kid was quite far to the left of me, but in the normal run of things, we’re united, which brings us to the point of the problem: children obey you on almost nothing, but they do seem to believe in your politics until they’re adolescent. So giving kids the vote is really just a way of giving parents extra votes. And what can stop us having even more children, once there’s so much enfranchisement (选举权) in it for us?‎ Now, if parents could be trusted to use their influence wisely, and hammer into children the politics it will take to assure a better future, then I wouldn’t necessarily have a problem with that, apart from, obviously, that culture is already wildly twisted towards parents, and I can imagine a few non-parents boiling with fierce anger. But that’s not worth talking about anyway, because parents can’t be trusted, otherwise we’d all already vote Green(绿党).‎ In short: no, six-year-olds should not get the vote; but while we’re here, if any votes come up in the near future, which will have an impact on the next five decades of British political life, alongside EU migrants, 16-year-olds certainly should be enfranchised.‎ ‎50. The author refers to his age of adulthood to prove that ________.‎ A. certain rights are granted at different stages of life B. there’s a common standard for the age of adulthood C. people mature at different rates in various aspects D. a credit card is more difficult to get than the vote ‎51. People reject David Runciman’s proposal because ________.‎ A. they believe children are far from mature in many ways B. they are uncertain whether children can assume responsibility C. they know the age to get the vote is not to be questioned D. they don’t think a child can grow into adulthood earlier ‎52. What is the base for David Runciman’s argument?‎ A. Public ignorance of children’s abilities. B. Inequalities of opportunity.‎ C. A cultural preference for the old. D. The imbalance in political life.‎ ‎53. The author talks about his kid to indicate that ________.‎ A children are in favor of a just society and tend to be idealistic B. children are innocent and don’t want to be involved in politics C. children are simple-minded and can fall for an adult’s trick D. children are good-natured and like to help people in need ‎54. The author thinks allowing children the vote may lead to ________.‎ A. twisted culture B. parents’ objections C. misuse of rights D. unusual maturation ‎55. What is the main point of the passage?‎ A. There is a difference between adults and children.‎ B. Allowing children the vote is not altogether absurd.‎ C. The definition of adulthood is quite controversial.‎ D. Parents should introduce politics to their children.‎ ‎【答案】50. C 51. A 52. D 53. A 54. C 55. B ‎【解析】‎ ‎【分析】‎ 这是一篇议论文。文章讲述了儿童成熟的速度是不同，所以作者认为允许儿童投票的提议并不完全是荒谬的，如果将对未来50年的英国政治生活产生影响，16岁的孩子应该被授予选举权。‎ ‎【50题详解】‎ 细节理解题。根据文章第一段的Indeed, maturation happens at varying speeds across different categories within the same individual, so I’d say I was easily old enough to vote at 16, but nobody should have given me a credit card until I was 32, and I’ve got the county court judgment to prove it.可知，作者以他的成熟年龄来证明人们在各个方面的成熟速度是不一样的。C. people mature at different rates in various aspects（人们在各个方面的成熟速度不一样）符合以上说法，故选C项。‎ ‎【51题详解】‎ 推理判断题。根据文章第二段的Nobody would say that a six-year-old could be held criminally responsible, could be sent to war, could be capable of consent, could be given responsibility for anything.（没人说6岁的孩子会被追究刑事责任，会被送上战场，会有同意的能力，会被赋予任何责任）由此推断，人们拒绝David Runciman的提议是因为他们认为孩子在很多方面还不够成熟，不能被赋予相应的责任。A. they believe children are far from mature in many ways（他们认为孩子在很多方面不成熟）符合以上说法，故选A项。‎ ‎【52题详解】‎ 细节理解题。根据文章第三段的Runciman’s argument is that this is the only way to rebalance ‎ political life可知，Runciman论点的基础是，这是重新平衡政治生活的唯一途径，即政治生活的不平衡导致他提出这个提议。D. The imbalance in political life.（政治生活的不平衡）符合以上说法，故选D项。‎ ‎【53题详解】‎ 推理判断题。根据文章倒数第四段的My kid, when he was six, made quite a forceful case against private property, on the basis that, since everybody needed a house, they shouldn’t cost money, because nobody would want anyone else not to have one. Also, food should be free. It was a kind of pre-Marx communism, where you limit the coverage of the market to only those things that you wouldn’t mind someone else not having.可知，孩子反对私有财产，因为他们觉得每个人需要房子，他们不应该花钱买房，此外食物也应该是免费的，这是一种前马克思共产主义的想法，由此可推测孩子更加公平，更期待理想社会。A. children are in favor of a just society and tend to be idealistic（孩子们喜欢公平的社会且倾向于理想主义）符合以上说法，故选A项。‎ ‎【54题详解】‎ 推理判断题。根据文章倒数第三段的So giving kids the vote is really just a way of giving parents extra votes.可知，给孩子投票权其实只是给父母额外投票权的一种方式，由此推断作者认为给孩子投票权可能会导致投票权的滥用。C. misuse of rights（权力的滥用）符合以上说法，故选C项。‎ ‎【55题详解】‎ 主旨大意题。根据文章最后一段In short: no, six-year-olds should not get the vote; but while we’re here, if any votes come up in the near future, which will have an impact on the next five decades of British political life, alongside EU migrants, 16-year-olds certainly should be enfranchised.可知，作者认为6岁的孩子不应该获得选举权，但是如果将来有任何会影响英国以及欧盟移民未来50年政治生活的投票出现话，16岁的孩子应该被赋予选举权，由此可知作者认为儿童被赋予选举权并不完全是荒谬的。B. Allowing children the vote is not altogether absurd.（允许儿童投票并不完全是荒谬的）符合以上说法，故选B项。‎ ‎【点睛】本篇考查推理判断类型题较多。推理判断题要求考生在理解原文表面意思的基础上，做出一定的判断和推理，从而得出文章的隐含意义和深层意义。推理判断属于主观性较强的高层次阅读理解题，做这类题目时，同学们应该严格按照作者所陈述的细节、事实以及作者的措词和态度语气等，找到能够表露作者思想倾向和感情色彩的词语，然后利用自己已经获得的相关知识进行推理和判断，从而得出符合逻辑的结论。小题2，答案定位在第二段Nobody ‎ would say that a six-year-old could be held criminally responsible, could be sent to war, could be capable of consent, could be given responsibility for anything.（没人说6岁的孩子会被追究刑事责任，会被送上战场，会有同意的能力，会被赋予任何责任）由此推断，人们拒绝David Runciman的提议是因为他们认为孩子在很多方面还不够成熟，不能被赋予相应的责任。A. they believe children are far from mature in many ways（他们认为孩子在很多方面不成熟）符合以上说法，故选A项。‎ 第Ⅱ卷(35 分)‎ 第三部分:写作 (共两节, 满分 35 分)‎ 第一节:阅读表达 (共 5 小题；每小题 2 分, 满分 10 分)‎ 阅读下列短文, 按照要求用英文回答问题。‎ I was in the country, Vietnam, from 1970 to 1971. I was a nineteen-year-old soldier. Six months after my arrival, I stepped on a land mine and lost my right foot. Although it was a painful experience, I also felt great relief and happiness. I knew it meant my plane ticket home. So I had mixed feelings after the accident.‎ Back in the US, I was fitted with an artificial leg and I threw away my uniform and my Purple Heart. They had no value to me. They reminded me of what I wasn’t proud of and I had one constant reminder: one artificial leg.‎ Twenty-six years later, I participated in a bicycle race in Vietnam, which was designed for Americans and veterans (老兵) and civilians of Vietnam. In the race I formed a connection with Tran, a veteran of the former North Vietnam. Like me, Tran had also lost his leg due to a mine. But unlike me, he had also lost some family members in the Americans’ bombing. He said he used to be filled with hate for Americans.‎ One day I heard that he had slipped in the race by accident, and that his leg was hurting him. I offered him some medicine to ease his pain. He gave me a “thumbs up”. He smiled his big smile. And that was enough. We had a special connection. Although language was an obstacle to our communication, it didn’t hinder us from conveying our friendship. In the race, we found that we could relax and enjoy each other’s company, even without words.‎ During the race, I found his prosthesis (假肢) was not good, so I considered arranging a new prosthesis for him after returning home. And I invited him to visit my country. Joyfully, he agreed. When I returned home, I talked with my friend Jim, who owned the company where my prosthesis was ‎ made. I told him about Tran and why he should have a new prosthesis. Jim agreed.‎ Later, Tran travelled to my country. We got Tran a new prosthetic leg. I was happy to give something to him—and in a way, to his country. At my daughters’ school, he talked about forgiveness. Despite their country’s loss, he found the place in his heart to forgive.‎ He is my friend, and I am happy that now our friendship will continue for the rest of our life.‎ ‎56. Why did the author have mixed feelings after the accident? (no more than 10 words)‎ ‎____________‎ ‎57. What does the underlined word in Paragraph 4 mean? (only 1 word)‎ ‎____________‎ ‎58. What did the author’s friend, Jim, agree to do? (no more than 10 words)‎ ‎____________‎ ‎59. What was the change of Tran’s feelings to Americans? (no more than 10 words)‎ ‎____________‎ ‎60. Why does the author say he and Tran will be friends for the rest of their life? Please give reasons in your own words. (no more than 20 words)‎ ‎____________‎ ‎【答案】56. Because although he was injured, he could returned home. ‎ ‎57. Prevent ‎ ‎58. To make a new prosthesis for Tran for free. ‎ ‎59. He turned hate to forgiveness. ‎ ‎60. Open.‎ ‎【解析】‎ 这是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了作者去越南参加自行车比赛时，遇到了和他遭遇相似的越南老兵，他们心意相通，成为了朋友。作者回国后邀请Tran来美国并送给他新的假肢，他很感动，告诉作者他原谅了美国对他的伤害，作者觉得他们的友谊可以永远保持下去。‎ ‎【56题详解】‎ 细节理解题。根据文章第一段的Although it was a painful experience, I also felt great relief and happiness. I knew it meant my plane ticket home. So I had mixed feelings after the accident.可知，作者虽然腿受了伤，但这意味着他可以回家，所以他的心情即痛苦又开心。故本题答案为：Because although he was injured, he could return home.‎ ‎【57题详解】‎ 词义猜测题。根据划线部分所在句子Although language was an obstacle to our communication, it didn’t hinder us from conveying our friendship.可知，尽管语言是他们交流的障碍，但这并不……他们传达友情。前后句为转折关系，故推测划线词的意思是“阻止”。故本题答案为：Prevent ‎【58题详解】‎ 细节理解题。根据文章第五段的so I considered arranging a new prosthesis for him after returning home…When I returned home, I talked with my friend Jim, who owned the company where my prosthesis was made. I told him about Tran and why he should have a new prosthesis.可知，作者回到美国后把想送给Tran新假肢的事情给朋友Jim说了，Jim对此想法表示赞同。故本题答案为：To make a new prosthesis for Tran for free.‎ ‎【59题详解】‎ 细节理解题。根据文章第三段的He said he used to be filled with hate for Americans.和倒数第二段的At my daughters’ school, he talked about forgiveness.可知，Tran对美国的态度由恨变为原谅。故本题答案为：He turned hate to forgiveness.‎ ‎【60题详解】‎ 推理判断题。根据文章第四段的We had a special connection. Although language was an obstacle to our communication, it didn’t hinder us from conveying our friendship. In the race, we found that we could relax and enjoy each other’s company, even without words.倒数第二段的I was happy to give something to him—and in a way, to his country. At my daughters’ school, he talked about forgiveness. Despite their country’s loss, he found the place in his heart to forgive.可推测，作者认为他们之间的友谊可以继续延续下去是因为他们虽然语言不同却能正真理解对方，而且Tran也放下了对美国的仇恨。故本题答案可以围绕这方面展开。‎ 第二节:书面表达 (满分 25 分)‎ ‎61.假定你是李津，是一名高三学生，自上个月开始你家长不再允许你使用手机上的 app软件，他们认为这对学习没有帮助还浪费时间，但是你不这样认为，为此你感到很苦恼。 请你用英语写一封信向你的美国笔友 John 求助。‎ 内容应包括:‎ ‎1. 介绍情况 ‎2. 你的想法 ‎3. 希望得到 John 的帮助并了解美国家长对此事的看法 注意：‎ ‎1. 可适当增加细节，不少于 100 词 ‎2. 开头和结尾已经给出，不计入总词数 Dear John,‎ I’m sorry to bother you, but ‎____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________‎ Look forward to your reply.‎ Yours,‎ Li Jin ‎【答案】Dear John,‎ I’m sorry to bother you, but I’m really in urgent need of your help.‎ Ever since last month, my parents haven’t allowed me to use mobile phones, because they think it is a waste of time using apps on the phone, which they believe will affect my study.

This is the first stop on my book tour. I’m off to Australia next! Before I take any questions, let me tell you a bit about myself. My new novel, The Love Song of Miss Queenie Hennessy, was published in 2014. The book is a companion to my first novel. The Unlikely Pilgrimage of Harold Fry, which follows a man named Harold Fry as he goes in search of his old friend, Queenie Hennessy, in hopes of saying goodbye ‎ before she dies. The novel was published in 2012. It was almost chosen for the Commonwealth Book Prize and the Man Booker Prize. The Love Song of Miss Queenie Hennessy is Queenie’s side of the story as she waits for Harold. I’ve also written many radio plays for BBC Radio Four, and in 2007, I won the Tinniswood Award for my radio play To Be a Pilgrim. I have also won the UK National Book Award for New Writer of the Year. Now, I’ll take questions from the audiences.‎
