Here the animals are not just to be looked at. They are part of everyday working life at the historic Beltana Station. ‎ What to do See how a station really works. Join in the daily working life with station workers. ‎ Shearing (剪羊毛) and camp-outs are part of Beltana Station's activities.‎ Farm animals to see: sheep and cattle. For the kids, depending on the season, there will be animals to feed — lambs and calves.‎ The station is a joy for painters and photographers. There is a family games room.‎ Three roads for 4-wheel-drive cars through the station take in such views as Lake Torrens, Mount Deception, relics in Old Beltana town and much more.‎ Where to live ‎• the historic 1860s shearers' rooms ‎• two-room small houses (1860s)‎ ‎• one small historic country house Beltana Station is not a resort (度假胜地) hotel. Unlike other places, you can experience real life with real people in Beltana.‎ ‎21. What would be a proper activity for children at Beltana Station?‎ A. Camp-outs with station workers. B. Sheep shearing.‎ C. Driving cattle. D. Feeding lambs.‎ ‎22. What may people learn when visiting Beltana Station?‎ A. Skills needed for long walks in mountains.‎ B. Knowledge of Australian history.‎ C. What to do in team sports.‎ D. How to keep pets.‎ ‎23. What is special about Beltana Station?‎ A. It is a large wild park. B. It offers real-life work experience.‎ C. It has seasonal family activities. D. It is a good place for weekend picnics.‎ ‎ ‎ B Why play games? Because they are fun, and a lot more besides. Following the rules, planning your next move and acting as a team member are all “game” ideas that you will come across throughout your life.‎ Think about some of the games you played as a young child, such as rope-jumping and hide-and-seek. Such games are entertaining and fun. But perhaps more importantly, they translate life into exciting dramas that teach children some of the basic rules they will be expected to follow the rest of their lives, such as taking turns and cooperating. ‎ Many children’s games have a practical side. Children around the world play games that prepare them for work they will do as grown-ups. For instance, some Saudi Arabian children play a game called bones, which sharpens the hand-eye coordination(协调)needed in hunting.‎ Many sports encourage national or local pride. The most famous games of all, the Olympic Games, bring athletes from around the world together to take part in friendly competition. People who watch the event wave flags, knowing that a gold medal is a win for an entire country, not just the athlete who earned it. For countries experiencing natural disasters or war, an Olympic win can mean so much.‎ Sports are also an event that unites people. Soccer is the most popular sport in the world. People on all continents play it—some for fun and some for a living. Nicolette Iribarne, a Californian soccer player, has discovered a way to spread hope through soccer. He created a foundation to provide poor children with not only soccer balls but also a promising future.‎ Next time you play your favorite game or sport, think about why you enjoy it, what skills are needed, and whether these skills will help you in other aspects of your life.‎ ‎24. What are children expected to learn Through playing hide-and-seek?‎ A. Be a team leader B. Obey the basic rules ‎ C. Act as a grown-up D. Predict possible danger ‎25. What does the underlined part in Paragraph 2 most probably mean? ‎ A. Games can describe life in an exciting way B. Games can turn real-life experiences into a play C. Games can make learning life skills more interesting D. Games can change people’s views of sporting events ‎26. According to the passage, why is winning Olympic medals so encouraging?‎ A. It inspires people’s deep love for the country.‎ B. It proves the exceptional skills of the winners.‎ C. It helps the country out of natural disasters.‎ D. It earns the winners fame and fortune.‎ ‎27. What’s Iribarne’s goal of forming the foundation?‎ A. Bringing fun to poor kids.‎ B. Providing soccer balls for children.‎ C. Giving poor kids a chance for a better life.‎ D. Attracting soccer players to help poor kids.‎ C Computer scientists have hoped to give robots technical skills to help them recognize, process and react to humor. But these attempts have mostly failed. AI experts say that in many cases, attempts to make robots understand humor end up producing funny results, but not in the way they were supposed to.‎ Tristan Miller studied more than 10,000 puns in one research project. The pun is a kind of joke that uses a word with two meanings. For example, you could say, “Balloons do not like pop music.” The word “pop” can be a way of saying popular music; or can mean the sound a balloon makes when it explodes. But a robot might not get the joke. Tristan Miller says that is because humor is a kind of creative language that is extremely difficult for computer intelligence to understand.‎ Allison Bishop is a computer scientist and she also performs stand-up comedy. She explained that machines are trained to look for patterns. Comedy, on the other hand, relies on things that stay close to a pattern, but not completely within it. To be funny, humor should also not be predictable, Bishop said. This is a great challenge for a machine to recognize and understand what is funny.‎ Bishop says since robots have great difficulty understanding humor, she feels like it gives her better job safety as a comedy performer. It even made her parents happy when her brother decided to become a full-time comedy writer because it meant he wouldn’t be replaced by a machine, she added.‎ Despite the difficulties, Darmstadt University’s Miller says there are good reasons to keep trying to teach humor to robots. It could make machines more relatable(叙述的), especially if they can learn to understand sarcasm (讽刺), he noted. Humans use sarcasm to say one thing but mean another. But Kiki Hempelmann thinks differently. “Teaching AI systems humor may make them find it where it isn’t, and they may use it where it’s not suitable,” he said. “Maybe bad AI will start killing people because it thinks something is funny,” he added.‎ ‎28. What does the author most probably want to show in Paragraph 1?‎ A. Robots’ influence on the scientific development.‎ B. Robots’ challenges of making sense of humor.‎ C. Computer scientists’ devotion to technical skills.‎ D. Computer scientists’ concern about AI’s development.‎ ‎29.What are examples mentioned in Paragraphs 2 and 3 intended to do?‎ A. Prove robots do poorly in funny work B. Explain robots aren’t as intelligent as humans C. Describe language is complex and changeable D. Show language can’t be taught in a set pattern ‎30. What can we infer about teaching AI system humor from the last paragraph?‎ A. It will make no difference.‎ B. It may be a double-edged sword.‎ C. It may help improve humans’ humor.‎ D. It will attract more computer scientists.‎ ‎31. Where would the passage most probably come from?‎ A.Textbook B. Advertisement C. Science journal D.Entertainment speech D Any foreigner who has tried to learn Chinese can tell how hard it is to master the tones required to speak and understand. And anyone who has tried to learn to play the violin or other instruments can report similar challenges.‎ Now researchers have found that people with musical training have an easier time learning Chinese. Writing in the online edition of Nature Neuroscience,researchers from Northwestern University say that both skills draw on the same parts of the brain that help people discover changes in pitch(音调).‎ One of the study's authors,Nina Kraus,said the findings suggested that studying music “actually tunes our sensory system”.This means that schools that want children to do well in languages should think carefully before cutting music programs,Dr. Kraus said. She said music training might also help children with language problems.‎ Mandarin(普通话)speakers have been shown to have a more complicated(复杂的) encoding(编码) of pitch patterns in their brains than English speakers do. This is because in Mandarin and other Asian languages,pitch plays a central role. A singlesyllable word can have several meanings depending on how it is intoned.‎ For this study,the researchers looked at 20 nonChinese speaking volunteers,half with no musical background and half who have studied an instrument for at least six years.‎ As they were shown a movie,the volunteers also heard an audio tape of the Mandarin word “mi” in three of its meanings:squint(眯),bewilder(迷) and rice. The researchers recorded activities in their brain stems to see how well they were processing the sounds. Those with a music background showed much more brain activities in response to the Chinese sounds.‎ The lead author of the study,Patrick C.M.Wong,said it might work both ways. It appears that native speakers of tonal languages may do better at learning instruments.‎ ‎32. What will a foreigner find when learning Chinese?‎ A.He has a difficult time learning music at the same time.‎ B.He has an easier time learning music at the same time.‎ C.It is hard to master the tones required to speak and understand.‎ D.It is easy to use the brain to help him discover changes in pitch.‎ ‎33. Why does Chinese learning have something to do with music training?‎ A.Because there is the same difficulty in learning Chinese and music.‎ B.Because skills to learn the two make use of the same parts of the brain.‎ C.Because music training might help people with language study.‎ D.Because people who do well in Chinese study do well in music.‎ ‎34. Which word can replace the underlined word “intoned” in the fourth paragraph?‎ A.created B.spelled C.seemed D.pronounced ‎35. What would be the best title for this passage?‎ A.Mandarin Speakers Are Smarter than English Speakers B.Skilled Ear for Music May Help Language Study C.Pitch Plays a Central Role in Chinese Learning D.Schools Need to Develop Music Programs ‎ 第二节(共5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的最佳选项,选项中有两项为多余选项。‎ What makes one person more intelligent than another?What makes one person a genius,like the brilliant Albert Einstein,and another person a fool?Are people born intelligent or stupid,or is intelligence the result of where and how you live? 36 We know,however,that just being born with a good mind is not enough.In some ways,the mind is like a leg or an arm muscle. 37 __Mental exercise is particularly important for young children.Many child psychologists think that parents should play with their children more often and give them problems to think about. 38 __If,on the other hand,children are left alone a great deal with nothing to do,they are more likely to become dull and unintelligent. 39___According to some psychologists,if parents are always telling a child that he or she is a fool or an idiot,then the child is more likely to keep doing silly and foolish things.So it is probably better for parents to say very positive things to their children,such as “That was a very clever thing you did.” or “ 40 __” A.A healthy body leads to one's intelligence. B.Parents should also be careful with what they say to young children. C.What people want to express is like this. D.The children are then more likely to grow up bright and intelligent. E.It needs exercise. F.You are such a smart child. G.These are very old questions and answers to them are still not clear.‎ 第三部分 语言知识运用(共两节,满分 55分)‎ 第一节 完形填空(共 20小题;每小题 2分,满分 40分)‎ 阅读下面的短文,从短文后各题所给的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。‎ When my daughter was in grade school, one day she 41 home four tiny twigs(枝条).

I am writing to tell you about it. Spring Festival has a long history, which was originally celebrated to scare away a fierce beast “Nian”. Slightly different from that in the past, it is now given new meanings and regarded as a way for people to enjoy reunion with their families however far they live or work. On the New Year’s Eve, each family has its members gathered together. They tell each other their lives in the past year, exchange gifts and eat a lot of delicious meals in the warmth of the family. Children can get lucky money in red paper. People have a good time, holding opera performances, and other celebrations.‎ ‎  I hope you will come here and experience this wonderful festival.‎ Yours,‎ Li Hua
