Jules Verne,a French writer who helped popularize science fiction，said Poe's work had a direct influence on the stories he wrote.‎ ‎4．Poe began to write to ．‎ A．earn his living B．find comfort in writing C．build a good reputation D．create a beautiful world ‎5．It can be learnt that Poe's works often reflect ______．‎ A．soldiers' life B．his own life stories C．a sense of peace D．some political problems ‎6．Which can best show Poe's influence on literature according to the last paragraph? ‎ A．His creation of crime fiction. ‎ B．His unique writing experience. ‎ C．His creation of scientific theories. ‎ D．His contribution to new inventions.‎ ‎7．What's the best title of the text?‎ A．American literature and writers ‎ B．Escape from real life and find comfort C．Edgar Allan Poe：a misunderstood poet ‎ D．Edgar Allan Poe：a tragic yet talented writer C By the end of the century，if not sooner，the world's oceans will be bluer and greener thanks to a warming climate，according to a new study.‎ At the heart of the phenomenon lie tiny marine microorganisms(海洋微生物)called phytoplankton. Because of the way light reflects off the organisms，these phytoplankton create ‎ colourful patterns at the ocean surface. Ocean colour varies from green to blue，depending on the type and concentration of phytoplankton. Climate change will fuel the growth of phytoplankton in some areas，while reducing it in other spots，leading to changes in the ocean's appearance.‎ Phytoplankton live at the ocean surface，where they pull carbon dioxide(二氧化碳)into the ocean while giving off oxygen. When these organisms die，they bury carbon in the deep ocean，an important process that helps to regulate the global climate. But phytoplankton are vulnerable to the ocean's warming trend. Warming changes key characteristics of the ocean and can affect phytoplankton growth，since they need not only sunlight and carbon dioxide to grow，but also nutrients.‎ Stephanie Dutkiewicz，a scientist in MIT's Center for Global Change Science，built a climate model that projects changes to the oceans throughout the century. In a world that warms up by 3℃，it found that multiple changes to the colour of the oceans would occur. The model projects that currently blue areas with little phytoplankton could become even bluer. But in some waters，such as those of the Arctic，a warming will make conditions riper for phytoplankton，and these areas will turn greener.‎ ‎“Not only are the quantities of phytoplankton in the ocean changing. ”she said，“but the type of phytoplankton is changing. ”‎ ‎8. What are the first two paragraphs mainly about? ‎ A. The various patterns at the ocean surface.‎ B.The efforts to fuel the growth of phytoplankton. ‎ C. The way light reflects off marine organisms.‎ D. The cause of the changes in ocean colour.‎ ‎9. What does the underlined word “vulnerable” in Paragraph 3 probably mean?‎ A.Significant B. Beneficial C. Sensitive. D. Unnoticeable ‎10. What can we learn from the passage?‎ A. Phytoplankton play a declining role in the marine ecosystem. ‎ B.Oceans with more phytoplankton may appear greener.‎ C. Phytoplankton have been used to control global climate D. Dutkiewicz's model aims to project phytoplankton changes ‎11. What is the main purpose of the passage？‎ A. To explain the effects of climate change on oceans ‎ B. To analyse the composition of the ocean food chain ‎ C.To assess the consequences of ocean colour changes ‎ D. To introduce a new method to study phytoplankton D In 1942, science fiction writer Isaac Asimov stated the Three Laws of Robotics. These laws come from the world of science fiction, but the real world is catching up. A law firm gave Pittsburgh's Carnegie Mellon University $10 million to explore artificial intelligence. Peter Kalis, chairman of the law firm, K&L Gates, said the development of technology had led to questions that were never taken seriously before. What will happen when you make robots that are smart, independent thinkers and then try to limit their freedom?‎ Researcher Kalis said, “One expert said we'll be at a point when we give an instruction to our robot to go to work in the morning and it turns around and says, ‘I'd rather go to the beach.’” He said that one day we would want laws to keep our free-thinking robots from running wild.‎ With the law firm's gift, the university will be able to explore problems now appearing within automated industries. “Take driverless cars for example,” Kalis said. “If there's an accident concerned with a driverless car, what policies do we have in place? What kind of insurance policies do they have?” In fact, people can take a ride in a driverless car in Pittsburgh where an American online transportation network company uses the city as a testing ground for the company's driverless cars.‎ The problems go beyond self-driving cars and robots. Think about the next generation of smart phones, those chips fixed in televisions, computers, fridges, etc., and the ever-expanding collection of personal data being stored in the “cloud”. So can Asimov's Three Laws of Robotics be used in reality? Is it necessary to have a moral guideline that everyone can understand? Whatever it is, doing no harm should be the very first one.‎ ‎12. What can we learn from the first paragraph?‎ A.Robots should have more freedom. ‎ B.Technology is running ahead of laws of robotics. ‎ C.The Three Laws of Robotics are practical. ‎ D.Peter wants to explore artificial intelligence.‎ ‎13. What makes humans worry about robots?‎ A.Robots may be out of control. ‎ B.Robots can do something illegal. ‎ C.Robots can become angry easily. ‎ D.Robots may have many requests.‎ ‎14. What is the third paragraph intended to tell us?‎ A.It's hard for robots to obey rules. ‎ B.A law on robotics is really a must. ‎ C.Driverless cars can cause accidents. ‎ D.Driverless cars are being tested out now.‎ ‎15. What should the basic law on robotics be according to the text? ‎ A.Robots should be cautiously used in life.‎ B.Robots should obey Asimov's Three Laws of Robotics. ‎ C.Robots should be easy for people to operate.‎ D.Robots should help with people's life and work.‎ 第二节 (共 5 小题，每小题3分，满分15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。‎ Imagine a child standing on a diving board four feet high and asking himself the question: "Should I jump?" This is what motivation or the lack of it can do. Motivation and goal setting are the two sides of the same coin. 16 Like the child on the diving board, you will stay undecided.‎ ‎ 17 More than that, how should you stay motivated to achieve the goal? First, you need to evaluate yourself, your values your strengths, your weaknesses, your achievements, your desires, etc. Only then should you set your goals.‎ You also need to judge the quality and depth of your motivation. This is quite important, because it is directly related to your commitment. There are times when your heart is not in your work.‎ ‎18 So, slow down and think what you really want to do at that moment. Clarity（清晰）of thoughts can help you move forward.‎ Another way of setting realistic goals is to analyze your short and long term o bjectives, keeping in mind your beliefs, values and strengths. Remember that goals are flexible. 19 They also need to be measurable. You must keep these points in mind while setting your goals.‎ Your personal circumstances are equally important. For example, you may want to be a Pilot but can’t become one because your eyesight is not good enough. 20 You should reassess your goals, and motivate yourself to set a fresh goal.‎ You will surely need to overcome some difficulties, some planned, but most unplanned. You cannot overcome them without ample motivation. Make sure that you plan for these difficulties at the time of setting your goals.‎ A. This can affect your work.‎ B. So how should you motivate yourself?‎ C. They can change according to circumstances. ‎ D. So why should we try to set specific goals? ‎ E.However, this should not discourage you.‎ F. Motivation is what you need most to do a good job.‎ G. Without motivation, you can neither set a goal nor reach it.‎ 第二部分：英语知识运用(共两节，满分 50 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。‎ Being jobless for the last three months, I am upset nowadays.
