What did Chinese entrepreneurs（企业家）speak in the forum? Are there some quotable quotes for you?‎ ‎ ★Jack Ma, founder and executive chairman of Alibaba Group ‎ “I think globalization cannot be stopped - no one can stop globalization, no one can stop trade. If trade stops, the world stops. Trade is the way to dissolve the war not cause the war,” said Ma in Davos,“Google, Facebook, Amazon and Alibaba - we are the luckiest companies of this century. But we have the responsibility to have a good heart, and do something good.”‎ ‎ ★Richard Liu, founder and chief executive officer of JD ‎ “Business is not only a way to make money but also a way to contribute yourself, to help people,” Liu said in a speech in Davos.“How can we face the fractured（分化的）world? That's the topics of the Davos this year. I think a very important thing in business is cooperation. If we can unite, work together, if we work very closely, I think we can bring more hope to the people and we can build more trust between the people, countries and companies and partners,” he said.‎ ‎ ★Jane Sun, CEO of Ctrip ‎ “Tourism is a sunrise industry. Since I entered Ctrip, every year there are new comers, which, first of all, shows that tourism is booming,” Sun told Sina. com in Davos. “We invested heavily in ABC． A refers to AI, B is big data, and C is cloud computing. As we continue to expand overseas, these three will be very good weapons for us. So we think those mean opportunity, ” she said.‎ ‎ ★Hu Xiaoming, president of Aliyun ‎ “In 2018, people will see the development in various countries more closely connected with cloud computing. More manufacturing enterprises and financial institutions will start to use “cloud”. And cloud computing will increase the efficiency of technology and finance, ”Hu told Xinhua in Davos.‎ ‎21．What do Chinese entrepreneurs like Jack Ma and Richard Liu focus more on?‎ A． More huge jumps in profits.

Called the Oton Glass, the glasses are meant to translate text into sound using two cameras and an earpiece, both fitted to its frame.‎ ‎ Half of the lens (镜片) is a mirror that reflects the wearer’s eyes back to the first camera, which tracks eye movement. The other camera captures the text. Wearers use the glasses by staring at the text they can’t read and blinking (眨眼) to trigger the glasses. Then the captured words are sent to a cloud system, which processes the text and turns it into sound played through the earpiece. If the system is unable to identify the words, the images are sent to a remote worker who can deal with them.‎ ‎ The Oton Glass lead designer, Keisuke Shimakage, started working on the glasses in 2012 to aid his father, who had developed dyslexia, a condition that makes it difficult for someone to read and spell. While his father eventually recovered, Shimakage continued his development in order to help others with the disorder.‎ ‎ Currently, the Oton Glass is seeking funding. Backers can get a pair of the glasses for 5,000 yen (roughly $47). Smart glasses aren’t a new concept, but it’s difficult to point to any single pair of smart glasses that people have reviewed favorably. It could, perhaps, be that previous products tried to do too much, or were too expensive. That’s why Intel’s Vaunt smart glasses stripped out some features, like its camera, LCD screen, and speakers. The Oton Glass is for a very specific audience, and its relatively low price could make it more appealing to those who want an affordable way to understand the text around them.‎ ‎24．What was Keisuke’s original purpose in designing the Oton Glass?‎ A． To treat his father’s disease.‎ B． To translate text into sound.‎ C． To assist his father to read.‎ D． To make written text easier to read.‎ ‎25．What is the right order how the Oton Glass works?‎ a. The camera captures the words.‎ b. The wearer stares at the text.‎ c. The wearer hears the sound via the earpiece.‎ d. The cloud system turns the text into sound.‎ e. The wearer blinks to get the glasses working.‎ A． a, b, e, c, d B． e, b, c, d, a C． b, d, a, e, c D． b, e, a, d, c ‎26．The underlined part “stripped out” in the last paragraph can be replaced by ________.‎ A． improved B． removed C． increased D． invented ‎27．What is the last paragraph mainly about?‎ A． The advantages of the Oton Glass.‎ B． The characteristics of smart glasses.‎ C． Consumers’ evaluation of the Oton Glass.‎ D． The target audiences of various smart glasses.‎ ‎ C ‎ Conventional wisdom is a major barrier to innovation that threatens the survival of companies everywhere. It's based on the assumption that old ideas will always work, so they shouldn't be challenged. While this may be a valid assumption in situations that don't change, it's unlikely to hold true in a changing situation. In today's rapid changing global environment, old methods often don't work, and stubbornly using them can lead to major problems.‎ ‎ Most people seem to agree with conventional wisdom because it gives one a false sense of security. If everyone else believes it, then it must be true.Individuals who use conventional wisdom are certain that they are right, and being right is good.They want to continue using old ideas rather than take risks with changes that might not work.In 1977, Ken Olsen,co-founder and CEO of Digital Equipment Corporation(DEC), stated"There is no reason for any individual to have a computer in his hoe." Despite being a dominant leader in the computer industry, DEC no longer exists.‎ ‎ People seem to forget that since innovation is a change, there can be no inovation without change. Unfortunately, conventional wisdom prevents leaders, followers and companies from changing and therefore innovating. If companies don't innovate, but their competitors do, the future is likely to be problematic. Breaking from conventional wisdom has led to many of the most innovative companies and products in history across many industries, so it has a powerful effect on business success.‎ ‎ Ted Turner(founder of CNN) knew little, if anything, about the news business, but he knew it was inconvenient to watch news only at the dinner hour, as was common before CNN. Turner's solution was to create a cable channel dedicated to news 24 hours a day. The news establishment reflected conventional wisdom at the time, and predicted his idea would fail because no one wanted to watch the news all day.‎ ‎ However, it doesn't take a rocket scientist to understand that viewers don't have to watch the news all day for the CNN to work. Viewers just have to watch when they want to get information. Due to conventional thinking, the critics failed to recognize the opportunity that was clear to Ted. They assumed that only what was familiar to them could work in the future.‎ ‎ Conventional wisdom prevents creativity, flexibility and risk-taking, so unconventional leaders enthusiastically break from it. To survive, thrive and maintain competitive advantage, companies must be flexible when reacting to change.‎ ‎28．DEC has disappeared probably because .‎ A． the consumers didn't like its products B． the leaders lacked the sense of security C． the CEO stuck to the conventional ideas D． the employees took many risks with changes ‎29．The founding of CNN is used as an example to prove .‎ A． missing opportunities could lead to failure B． changing could contribute to business success C． watching news at the dinner hour is convenient D． conventional wisdom influences business success ‎30．What does the underlined part probably mean?‎ A． Rocket scientists can ensure the CNN works properly.‎ B． Most of the viewers don't like to watch the news at work.‎ C． It's necessary to understand when people watch the news.‎ D． It's easy to know people needn't watch the news all the time.‎ ‎31．The passage is mainly written to tell us that .‎ A． old methods are changing with time B． opportunities lead to business success C． conventional wisdom limits innovation D． successful companies need wise leaders.‎ ‎ D. ‎ ‎ The Shiants, remote, cliff-edged islands off the coast of Scotland are home to 350,000 seabirds. This is the starting point for National Geographic contributor Adam Nicolson’s new book, The Seabirds Cry. Celebrating 10 species in detail, he describes the unbelievable recovery of seabirds and the many adaptations that have enabled them to survive and navigate the oceans, while sounding a loud call for their conservation among severely falling numbers ‎ Speaking from his home in Sussex, England, Nicolson explains why guillemot (海雀)colonies ‎ are information exchange centers: how new research is showing that those long-distance travelers. the shearwaters, "smell" their way across the globe; and what we can do to support seabird populations.‎ ‎ National Geographic has just kicked off Year of the Bird with a cover story by Jonathan Franzen titled "Why Birds Matter ". The beginning of Year of the Bird is beneficial to birds. Nicolson said, "Ill ask you the same question-why? For me, these seabirds are symbols of uniqueness. There is so much on the land where the rest of the living world seems to be controlled by us, but when you go to seabird colonies, there is this pumping, loud and raging uniqueness. It's a glance of the untouched world. ”‎ ‎ “The reason why it's untouched is that, until recently, we have not controlled the oceans that the seabirds depend on. More of them have survived in greater numbers than most other creatures in the developed world, where huge amounts of the animal kingdom have been removed by us. And so one reason these birds matter is that they are symbols of what the world might be if we hadn't done so much damage to it. "He added.‎ ‎ “Seabirds also tend to disappear; they re not reliably of our world. due to their migration and habits of life. Very deep in our consciousness is a sense that they are ambassadors from another world. And witnessing and feeling that is, I think, one of the great enlargers of life.” Nicolson explained ‎32．What is the book The Seabirds Cry mainly about?‎ A． Seabirds on an island B． The extinction of seabirds.‎ C． The importance of seabird D． Seabirds in the author's hometown.‎ ‎33．What can we learn from Nicolson’s speech?‎ A． The wisdom of seabirds B． Ways to protect seabird C． Migration routes of seabirds D． The harder situation of seabirds.‎ ‎34．What does the underlined phrase "kicked off" in paragraph 3 mean?‎ A． Watched out for B． Cut across C． Expressed D． Started ‎35．Which is a lucky thing for seabirds in Nicolson's view?‎ A． The sea is too large to be polluted.‎ B． The sea isn't entirely governed by humans.‎ C． The seabirds are able to fit the environment.‎ D． The seabirds are living in the developed world. ‎ 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。‎ ‎ Critical（批判的）thinking is the art of using reason to analyze ideas and dig deeper to get to our true potential. It doesn’t mean you’re thinking harder or longer. 36． Here are some tips and ideas to help you build a foundation for critical thinking.‎ ‎ Question your assumptions. We make a lot of assumptions about almost everything. It’s how our brain processes certain pieces of information, and how we get along in everyday life. You could say they are the foundation of our critical framework. 37． Then the whole foundation needs to be rebuilt, from the bottom up.‎ ‎ Don’t take information on authority until you've investigated it yourself. Instead of double-checking everything anyone says, we tend to label information as either coming from a trustworthy or not trustworthy source. This keeps us from double-checking every piece of information that comes our way, saving time and energy. But it also keeps us from getting to the bottom of things we think of as coming from a trustworthy source, even when they don’t. 38．‎ ‎ Put yourself in other people’s shoes. Empathy can also help you develop your critical thinking skills. 39． You may find that a little understanding facilitates a deeper insight into other people and their behavior. The deeper your insight into yourself and others, the wiser your decisions will be.‎ ‎ 40． There is no way to learn better than learning from your friends. If you only want to be a big fish swimming in the little pond just because your ego（自负）feels good, keep this part. If you are wondering about how to develop critical skills, make friends with smart people and throw away your ego.‎ A． Actually, it’s about thinking better.‎ B． Surround yourself with people smarter than you.‎ C． Be someone that people know that they can count on.‎ D． You should not judge others until you fully understand their situation.‎ E. But what if they turned out to be wrong, or at least not entirely truthful?‎ F. The reason is that understanding does not always go with the right action.‎ G. So what is published in a magazine or online doesn’t mean it’s necessarily true.‎ 第三部分 英语知识运用（共两节，满分45分）‎ 一、完形填空（共20小题；每小题1．5分，满分30分）‎ ‎ A few years ago, I was working in a small organization. Everyone was busy working on projects all day, 41． a lot from stress. One particular week, I decided to make people smile. So one evening, I wrote up a few quotes that have 42． me over the years.

If we can unite, work together, (if) we work very closely, I think we can bring more hope to the people and we can build more trust between the people, countries and companies and partners.可知这两个中国企业家更关注合作和人类的共同努力，故选B.‎ ‎22．A 细节推理题。根据Jane Sun中Tourism is a sunrise industry. Since I entered Ctrip, every year there are new comers, which, first of all, shows that tourism is booming.可知Ctrip的主要业务是旅游业，故选A.‎ ‎23．C 细节推理题。根据最后一部分In 2018, people will see the development in various countries more closely connected with cloud computing.

Since I entered Ctrip, every year there are new comers, which, first of all, shows that tourism is booming.可知Ctrip的主要业务是旅游业。小题3根据最后一部分In 2018, people will see the development in various countries more closely connected with cloud computing. More manufacturing enterprises and financial institutions will start to use ‘cloud’. And cloud computing will increase the efficiency of technology and finance可知各个国家的发展与云计算有着更紧密的联系，云计算将提高技术和金融的效率。‎ ‎ ‎ ‎24．C 25．D 26．B 27．A ‎【解析】‎ ‎24．细节理解题。根据文章第三段The Oton Glass lead designer, Keisuke Shimakage, started working on the glasses in 2012 to aid his father, who had developed dyslexia, a condition that makes it difficult for someone to read and spell.一句可知Keisuke设计Oton Glass的最初原因是为了帮助患病的父亲阅读和写东西。故选C。‎ ‎25．细节理解题。根据第三段可知在使用这种眼睛的时候，首先应该戴上眼镜，根据这一步可排除A和B选项。再根据Wearers use the glasses by staring at the text they can’t read and blinking (眨眼) to trigger the glasses.一句可知第二步是要通过眨眼的形式激活眼镜。故可以得出正确答案为D。‎ ‎26．词义猜测题。最后一段It could, perhaps, be that previous products tried to do too much, or were too expensive.一句提到以前的产品想拥有更多的功能，因此导致价格过高。再根据后句The Oton Glass is for a very specific audience, and its relatively low price…可知The Oton Glass的价格更低，故可以推知一些使价格上涨的功能被取消了。故选B。‎ ‎27．主旨大意题。本文主要是介绍了日本一家公司开发了一种称为“Oton Glass”智能眼镜。最后一段主要是提到了Oton Glass的一大优势—价格优势。故选A。‎ ‎【点睛】‎ 词义猜测之内在逻辑关系推理法 根据内在逻辑关系推测词义是指应用语言知识分析和判断相关信息之间存在的逻辑关系，然后根据逻辑联系推断生词词义或大致义域。‎ ‎1. 根据对比关系猜测词义 在一个句子或段落中，有对两个事物或现象进行对比性的描述，我们可以根据生词的反义词猜测其词义。表示对比关系的词汇和短语主要有：unlike, not, but, however, despite, in spite of, in contrast 等。表示对比关系的句子结构：while 引导的并列句。 ‎ ‎2. 根据比较关系猜测词义 同对比关系相反，比较关系表示意义上的相似关系。表示比较关系的词和短语主要有：similarly, like, just as, also, as well as 等。例如：‎ Green loves to talk, and his brothers are similarly loquacious.‎ 该句中副词similarly表明短语loves to talk和loquacious 之间的比较关系，其意义相近。由此我们可推断出loquacious的意思是健谈的。‎ ‎3. 根据因果关系猜测词义 在句子或段落中，若两个事物现象之间构成因果关系，我们可以根据这种逻辑关系推测生词词义。‎ ‎4. 根据同义、近义、反义、并列、替代、说明等关系猜测词义 在句子或段落中，我们可以利用熟悉的词语，根据语言环境所表示的关系推断生词词义。本文第三题猜测stripped out的意思。前句It could, perhaps, be that previous products tried to do too much, or were too expensive.一句提到以前的产品想拥有更多的功能，因此导致价格过高。再根据后句The Oton Glass is for a very specific audience, and its relatively low price…可知The Oton Glass的价格更低，前后两句构成了反义关系，故可以推知一些使价格上涨的功能被取消了，相应地价格变得更低一些。‎ ‎ ‎ ‎28．C 29．B 30．D 31．C 本文是一篇议论文，传统观念是威胁公司存在的一个主要障碍。文章详细介绍了传统观念是如何妨碍人们创新求变的，并列举了CNN的例子来证明自己的观点。‎ ‎28．推理判断题。根据第二段最后两句In 1977, Ken Olsen, co-founder and CEO of Digital Equipment Corporation(DEC), stated "There is no reason for any individual to have a computer in his hoe." Despite being a dominant leader in the computer industry, DEC no longer exists.可知DFC的首席执行官Ken Olsen认为个人没有必要使用电脑，而这种想法是与潮流相违背的，缺乏创新精神，最终导致公司倒闭。所以DEC的倒闭主要是由于CEO坚持传统观点导致的。故C项正确。‎ ‎29．推理判断题。根据文章第四段后两句Turner's solution was to create a cable channel dedicated ‎ to news 24 hours a day. The news establishment reflected conventional wisdom at the time, and predicted his idea would fail because no one wanted to watch the news all day.可知面对新情况，CNN的创始人Turner做出了改变，建立了一个优先电视频道播放24小时的新闻，最终取得了成功。这个例子说明要有创新改变才可以取得成功。故B项正确。‎ ‎30．句意理解题。However, it doesn't take a rocket scientist to understand that viewers don't have to watch the news all day for the CNN to work.句意：要理解观众不需要整天看CNN的新闻这件事情并不需要研究火箭的科学家这样的人。也就是说普通人也明白这个道理，故D项正确。‎ ‎31．主旨大意题。根据文章主题句Conventional wisdom is a major barrier to innovation that threatens the survival of companies everywhere.可知传统观念是威胁公司存在的一个主要障碍。文章详细介绍了传统观念是如何妨碍人们创新求变的，并列举了CNN的例子来证明自己的观点。故C项正确。‎ ‎32．A 33．B 34．D 35．B 本文是一篇说明文。本文主要是介绍了Adam Nicolson的最新关于海鸟的研究成果及其新书The Seabirds Cry。Adam Nicolson在书中描述了这些鸟类的现状。由于人类还没有完全占领海洋，因此这些鸟类得以存活下来。并呼吁人们加强对这些鸟类的保护。‎ ‎32．细节理解题。根据The Shiants, remote, cliff-edged islands off the coast of Scotland are home to 350,000 seabirds. This is the starting point for National Geographic contributor Adam Nicolson’s new book, The Seabirds Cry.（The Shiants，远离苏格兰海岸的拥有悬崖峭壁的海岛，是35万海鸟的家园，它是Adam Nicolson’s new book的书The Seabirds Cry的开始内容。）可知Adam Nicolson的书主要是关于这座海岛上海鸟的情况。故选A。‎ ‎33．推理判断题。根据第二段中how new research is showing that those long-distance travelers. the shearwaters, "smell" their way across the globe; and what we can do to support seabird populations.（新的研究是如何展示这些鸟类利用嗅觉来寻找路线，我们该做什么来支持海鸟的数量）可知Nicolson所讲到的内容主要包含两个部分：这些海鸟如何寻找路线，我们该做什么来保护海鸟。故选B。‎ ‎34．词义猜测题。根据第三段中National Geographic has just kicked off Year of the Bird with a cover story by Jonathan Franzen titled "Why Birds Matter ".（National Geographic刚刚用一个Jonathan Franzen定题目为“为什么鸟类很重要”的封面故事展开了Year of the Bird这本杂志的内容）可知kicked off意为“开始；启动”。 故选D。‎ ‎35．细节理解题。根据第四段“The reason why it's untouched is that, until recently, we have not controlled the oceans that the seabirds depend on.（至今还没有被人类所干扰是因为我们还没有完全控制鸟类赖以生存的海洋。）可知人类还没有完全控制海鸟的栖息地—海洋。故选B。‎ ‎36．A 37．E 38．G 39．D 40．B 本文为说明文。批判性思维是一种运用理性分析思想、深入挖掘以达到真正潜能的艺术。这是更好地思考。文中介绍了一些帮助你建立批判性思维基础的技巧和想法：勇于质疑、会移情，为他人着想、与聪明的人相处等。‎ ‎36．考查对上下文的理解及推理判断能力。本段是对批判性思维的定义。批判性思维是一种运用理性分析思想、深入挖掘以达到真正潜能的艺术。接着进行解释：这并不是你思考的更久或更长。那是什么呢？”而是….”。分析选项，选项A（而是关于更好的思考）。不是….而是….,正是一种常用的解释，因此A项符合题意。‎ ‎37．考查对上下文的理解及推理判断能力。第二段最后一句“Then the whole foundation needs to be rebuilt, from the bottom up.” 那么整个基础就需要自下而上重建。由此可推断“如果是错误的就是重建”。分析选项，E项（但是如果他们被证明是错误的，或者至少不是完全真实的呢？）与后面的整个基础就需要重建是互为条件。故选E项。‎ ‎38．考查对上下文的理解及推理判断能力。本段的意思是说除非你亲自调查过，否则不要把权威性的信息带进来。因为我们无法都仔细检查每件事，所以权威性的东西并不非一定是值得信赖，并非是真的。分析选项可知，只在G项（所以杂志或网络上发表的内容并不意味着这是真的。）的意思与之相符，因为杂志上发表的东西相对是权威性的。故G与本段意思 相一致。‎ ‎39．考查对上下文的理解及推理判断能力。本段的中心为：设身处地为别人着想即移情还可以帮助你培养批判性思维的技能。因为一点点理解就有助于深入了解他们。你理解他人越深，你做出的决定或判断就越明智。分析选项，可知D选项选中的动词understand与本段中的名词understanding，选项中的judge评判与本段中decisions决定，判断是词义的复现。而其句意： “不理解别人时不要评价别人”，与本段意思相一致。因此D项符合题意，故选D。‎ ‎40．考查对上下文的理解及推理判断能力。根据空后内容：跟你身边的聪明的人学习是最好的办法，如果你想变得更聪明，那就不要自负，要与聪明的人交朋友，总之就是要与聪明的人在一起。本小题是对本段的总结，分析选项可知B项（和比你更聪明的在一起）符合题意。‎ ‎ ‎ ‎41．C 42．A 43．D 44．B 45．C ‎46．A
