I thought it was a pain that I could live with for a while.‎ However, during the next few weeks, the pain became more intense, spreading to my teeth, gums and jaw. I was told I had seven wisdom teeth.‎ Yes, you read that correctly, seven — three more than a normal person. My first reaction when I heard was to laugh. It’s just my luck. My mouth wanted to do more work than it had to. ‎ ‎ Focusing on the positive, one of the great things about having extra teeth is watching people’s reactions when they find out. So far, I haven’t grown tired of repeating myself. ‎ The extra teeth are also a good excuse for me being tongue-tied. I can now blame it on my overcrowded mouth rather than my slow brain.‎ Of course, with wisdom teeth come the intellect jokes. My parents say my intelligence comes from my extra teeth and not my hard work. My friends agree that once the teeth are pulled, my brain will be that of a 5-year-old.‎ I’ve also thought about how I might profit from this. If only I still believed in the tooth fairy, I could make a lot of cash. Maybe I could sell my extras to someone in need. Advertisement: Seven teeth for sale, unused, in almost perfect condition.‎ Don’t be fooled by my jokes. I am worried about having surgery. I’m also going to be sad to see the Lucky Seven go. I’ve developed quite an attachment to them over the past two days. Once they’re removed, I’ll just be normal again, and who wants that?‎ ‎21. When the author found that she had three more wisdom teeth than a normal person, she______.‎ A. found it quite funny B. dealt with the pain calmly C. was confused and anxious D. kept it secret from others ‎22. The intellect jokes from the author’s family and friends were intended to_______.‎ ‎ A. persuade the author not to remove her wisdom teeth ‎ B. advise the author to work hard to improve her intelligence C. make fun of the author in a light-hearted way D. let the author know why she is often tongue-tied ‎23. When the author brought up the idea of tooth fairy, she_______.‎ ‎ A. thought she could rely on it to make a living B. had already made up her mind to make money ‎ C. believed that her wisdom teeth were in perfect condition ‎ ‎ D. was deeply aware that the idea couldn’t become reality ‎24. What’s the article mainly about?‎ A. People’s different reactions to the author’s wisdom teeth.‎ B. How the author has gotten on with her extra wisdom teeth.‎ C. The author’s ideas for making use of her wisdom teeth.‎ D. How the author has decided to remove her wisdom teeth.‎ B The Coolest Inventions An Oceans Vacuum There’s a collection of plastic trash in the middle of the Pacific Ocean. It’s bigger than Texas and growing. The way to clean it up now is to catch it with nets. That is both costly and slow. Instead, the Ocean Cleanup Project proposes a 62-mile-long floating barrier that would use natural currents to trap trash. If next year’s trials succeed, a full cleanup operation would aim to start in 2020. It could reduce the trash by 42 % over 10 years.‎ Easy-On Shoes In 2012, Matthew Walzer, a high school student with a disability, sent a note to Nike. “My dream is to go to college,” he wrote, “without having to worry about someone coming to tie my shoes every day.” Nike assigned a design team to the challenge. This year, they came out with their solution: the FlyEase. The basketball shoe can be fastened with one hand. A pair of Nike FlyEase shoes sells for $ 130.‎ An Airport for Drones (无人机）‎ As Amazon, Google, and others get ready for drone delivery service, there is one big question: What kinds of home bases will their drones have? Rwanda, in Africa, may have the answer. There, workers will soon start work on three “drone ports”. The goals is to make it easier to transport food, medical supplies, electronics, and other goods through the hilly countryside. Construction is set to be completed in 2020.‎ ‎25. What’s the advantage of the Oceans Vacuum?‎ A. It can be a money-saver. B. It can grow year by year.‎ C. It can tear plastic into pieces. D. It can be put into wide use soon.‎ ‎26. What do we know about Nike?‎ A. It offers free shoes to the disabled. B. It is designing new shoes frequently.‎ C. It provides customer-friendly services. D. It responded to Matthew’s request passively.‎ ‎27. Why is Rwanda setting up “drone ports”？‎ A. Because road travel there is rough. B. Because there are too many drones.‎ C. Because they’re easier to construct than roads. D. Because they are receptive to new technology.‎ C We live in a time when technology has enabled everyone to be a journalist. Yet not everyone has the proper training. Whether out of ignorance or out of a sense of honor, some of the journalism online has done a better job of changing public opinion than showing the whole truth.‎ Two recent stories are perfect reminders of the difference between the urge to change minds and basic journalism ethics (道德标准).‎ ‎“A college kid took some birds from a nearby tree and was sentenced to 10 years in prison,” went a recent online headline from the Chinese Internet. The accompanying vote showed that 85 percent of respondents sided with the student. Some joked that most boys would be guilty of such a crime because everyone had stolen birds when they were children.‎ Left out of the original report was the fact that the birds in question were falcons, which are on the nation’s list of protected, endangered species. Birdwatchers also said that it was unlikely Yan Xiaotian, the 21-year-old defendant, had found the 12 birds in one tree. For this particular species, he had to search a much larger area.‎ For me, the most important questions are: Did he know it was illegal before he took the birds and did he know that before he sold them?‎ Follow-up reporting has found that the evidence showed that Yan knew what he was doing. The only point of uncertainty is the very first time he took the first birds when he could be unaware of their status and value. As a matter of fact, the prosecutor (公诉人) started out asking for a light punishment, but took a U-turn when data from Yan’s cellphone clearly showed that he had stolen them.‎ The punishment, while sounding harsh, followed the law almost to the letter. The court has since said it would review the case, a sign of giving in to public pressure.‎ Let’s look at the second story, which can be read as either “Elderly man had to walk in his shorts for hours in Sanya after his bike was taken by the city’s quasi-police”(城管) or “Retired official illegally parked his bike for a swim and made the city apologize and fire a low-paid city management staff member”.‎ Both played up (渲染) different parts of the same story. For me, Bi Guochang’s age and former official title are not relevant to the case. The key is whether he indeed parked his bike illegally and whether proper procedures were being followed by taking it away and making him get it back. Yet the reports focused on the image of an old man walking only in his shorts. He could have phoned his family for backup or taken a taxi home first before complaining, as most would do in that situation.‎ Such stories read like badly-written morality tales, with everything in black and white and a simple yes-or-no message. Real life is much more complicated. Reporters have to be neutral and avoid taking sides too early.‎ China‎ Daily ‎28. Why was Yan Xiaotian sentenced to 10 years in prison?‎ A. He took some birds from a nearby tree.‎ B. He searched a much larger area for birds.‎ C. He illegally took some falcons and sold them.‎ D. He took 12 birds without knowing they were falcons.‎ ‎29. According to the passage, the writer implied that .‎ A. the judges should still follow the law strictly B. the punishment was too much for the student C. the student didn’t get fair treatment from the judges D. the court will resentence the student ‎30. The writer mentioned the second story to show that .‎ A. the reports focused on the appearance of Bi Guochang rather than the truth B. the journalists expressed their sympathy for the elderly person C. the local officers didn’t follow proper procedures when they dealt with Bi’s case D. the city’s quasi-police were to blame for Bi’s troubles ‎31. Which of the following is the best title of the passage?‎ A. Two morality stories B. How to be a journalist C. Unfair punishment D. Telling truth or taking sides D Smile, you’re on body cam As camera technology gets smaller and cheaper, it isn’t hard to imagine a future where we’re all filming everything all the time, in every direction.‎ Would that be a good thing? There are some obvious potential upsides. If people know they are on camera, especially when at work or using public services, they are surely less likely to misbehave. Another upside is that it would be harder to get away with crimes or to escape from blame for accidents.‎ Body-cam data could also create a legal minefield. Arguments over the truth and interpretation of police footage(影像) have already surfaced. Eventually, events not caught on camera could be treated as if they didn’t happen. Alternatively, footage could be faked or doctored (伪造) to avoid blame or do wrong to others.‎ Of course, some people think that if you are not doing anything wrong, you have nothing to fear. But most people have done something embarrassing, or even illegal, that they regret and would prefer hadn’t been caught on film. People already remove their social media feeds or avoid doing anything wrong in public -- for fear of damaging their reputation.‎ The always-on-camera world could even threaten some of the qualities that make us human. We are natural persons who enjoy talking about other people’s private lives and while those might not be desirable behaviours, they oil the wheels of our social interactions. Once people assume they are being filmed, they ‎ are likely to keep silent.‎ The argument in relation to body-cam ownership is a bit like that for guns: once you go past a critical threshold(临界值), almost everyone will feel they need one as an insurance policy. We are nowhere near that point yet- but we should think hard about whether we really want to say lights, body cam, action. ‎ ‎32. What does the underlined word “upsides” in Paragraph 2 refer to?‎ A. advantages. B. rules. C. shortcomings. D. dangers.‎ ‎33. Why do people argue about police footage?‎ A. Police footage can show the truth. B. Events caught on footage are treated unfairly.‎ C. Police footage could be changed on purpose. D. Footage should not be filmed by police.‎ ‎34. What does the author believe?‎ A. People behave well with cameras on.‎ B. People’s private lives should be respected.‎ C. Talking about others’ private lives promotes social interactions.‎ D. People keep silent before cameras when talking about themselves.‎ ‎35. What is suggested in the last paragraph?‎ A. We don’t need a critical threshold. B. We should be cautious in adopting body-cam.‎ C. We need body-cam as an insurance policy. D. We haven’t decided whether to take action.‎ E 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。‎ Have you ever heard of a Cucamelon? If not, you’re missing out on the cutest fruit on earth!‎ Cucamelons look like baby watermelons and taste like cucumbers mixed with lemon. 36 You can grow them in a pot, plastic bag or directly into a garden. These plants are fast growers and have a maturity of 80 days, which means you can grow them when it starts to get colder, too. 37 You’d have to look online and purchase them. Generally speaking, you can receive them within 7 days.‎ If you choose to plant them directly into your garden, you can plant them as soon as the chance of frost is gone. 38 You can put wood sticks into the ground for the roots to grow on, or use bamboo sticks as an alternative. After your first season of growing Cucamelons, you’ll notice that the root is very long. You can dig up these roots and store them in a cool, dry place and re-pot them at the start of the next ‎ growing season. 39 It will be a big harvest! By the way, you can use Cucamelons in food dishes or in drinks. The thought sounds pretty excellent!‎ ‎ 40 Your neighbors might even feel inspired to grow Cucamelons themselves!‎ A. This means you can eat fruit all the year round.‎ B. However, you won’t find these seeds in a store.‎ C. They’ll need a lot of water and a little support with growing.‎ D. They’re from Mexico and are known as “Sandíitas de Raton”.‎ E. That’s because the young plants can’t stand the cold weather.‎ F. If you’re looking for a new, exciting fruit to try out, try Cucamelons! ‎ G. This will give you ten times as many Cucamelons the next time around!‎ ‎ ‎ 第一节 完形填空（共20小题；每小题1分，满分20分）‎ 阅读下面短文，从短文后各小题所给的 A、B、C 和 D 四个选项中，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。‎ What I 41 most about visiting my boyfriend’s parents is the loud tick of the clock in the dining room as we 42 ate our meal. With so little conversation I was quick to 43 his family as cold. When we got into the 44 to go home, his father suddenly appeared. 45 , he began to wash his son’s windscreen.
