The mess ldft by men is finally for women to clean up. After the worldwide-shocking “Brexit”, Cameron has successfully thrown Theresa into trouble. A remain campaigner as she was, Theresa insists that “Brexit means Brexit”. Since taking office, she has already shown her calmness, humbleness, efficiency and powerful leadership.‎ Merkel—the unquestioned “Big Sister”‎ From a PhD in physics to a role on the political stage, she is Merkel, the first female chancellor(总理) in German history. Facing the European migrant crisis, she advocated the policy of “Open the Door” and put forward the slogan “We are able to manage it”. However, the coming of refugees not only caused serious social security problems but also brought terrorism and political tsunami.‎ Hillary—a woman’s presidential dream Born in a wealthy business family and graduating from Law School of Yale University, Hillary struggled for thirty years on the US political stage and was once the First Lady, Federal Senator and Secretary of State. She is an outstanding but controversial woman in this day and age, since she is rich in not only political experience but also scandals. Hillary, early 70 years old now, ran for the US presidents twice, only ending up with a broken dream.‎ Park Geun-hye—a woman who married the country In December, 2012, the 60-year-old Park Geun-hye was elected the first female president of South Korea. She once pledged: “I don’t have parents, nor do I have a husband and children, and the country is the only one I wish to serve.” Yet the “confidante(红颜知己)scandal” was undoubtedly a political earthquake for her, ending her presidency and forcing her out of office in March, 2017.‎ ‎21. What does Theresa May mean by saying Brexit means Brexit?‎ A. She will cary on Brexit.‎ B. She will postpone Brexit.‎ C. She will oppose Brexit.‎ D. She will think twice about Brexit.‎ ‎22. Who ran for presidency twice but in vain?‎ A. Merkel B. Theresa May C. Hillary D. Park Geun-hye ‎23. What can we infer about the four women?‎ A. Theresa May is better than the former Prime Minister.‎ B. Merkel is doubtful about her policy towards the refugees.‎ C. Hillary is the most successful First Lady.‎ D. Park Geun-hye was in office for not more than five years.‎ B A city child’s summer is spent in the street in front of his home, and all through the long summer vacations I sat on the edge of the street and watched enviously the other boys on the block play baseball. I was never asked to take part even when one team had a member missing—not out of special cruelty, but because they took it for granted I would be no good at it. They were right, of course.‎ I would never forget the wonderful evening when something changed. The baseball ended about eight or eight thirty when it grew dark. Then it was the custom of the boys to retire to a little stoop(门廊) that stuck out from the candy store on the corner and that somehow had become theirs. No grownup ever sat there or attempted to. There the boys would sit, mostly talking about the games played during the day and of the game to be played during the day. Then long silences would fall and the boys would wander off one by one. It was just after one of those long silences that my life as an outsider changed. I can no longer remember which boy it was that summer evening who broke the silence with a question, but whoever he was, I nod to him gratefully now. “What’s in those books you’re always reading?” he asked casually. “Stories,” I answered. “What kind?” asked somebody else without much interest. Instead of answering his question, I told them for two hours the story I was reading at the moment. They listened attentively. I must have told it well.‎ The next night and many nights thereafter, a kind of unspoken ritual (仪式) took place. As it grew dark, I would take my place in the center of the stoop and begin the evening’ s tale. Some nights, in order to taste my victory more completely, I cheated. I would stop at the most exciting part of a story and without warning tell them that that was as far as I had gone in the book and it ‎ would have to be continued the following evening. It was not true, of course; but I had to make certain of my new-found power and position. Other words of mine have been listened to by larger and more fashionable audiences. But for that tough and athletic one that sat close on the stoop outside the candy store, I have an unreasoning love that will last forever.‎ ‎24. Watching the boys playing baseball, the writer must have felt ________.‎ A. lonely and left out ‎ B. special and different C. worried and nervous D. disturbed and annoyed ‎25. The writer feels grateful even now to the boy who asked the question because the boy ________.‎ A. liked the book that he was reading B. invited him to join in their game ‎ C. offered him an opportunity that changed his life D. broke the long silence of that summer evening ‎26. Sometimes the writer stopped at the most exciting part of a story to _______.‎ A. play a foolish trick on the boys ‎ B. add his own imagination to the story ‎ C. experience more joy of achievement D. help the boys understand the story better ‎27. What can be a suitable title for this text?‎ A. Lonely Summer Vacations B. Memory of Childhood Friends C. Books’ Appeal to me D. My First Audience C For most city people, the elevator is an unremarkable machine that inspires none of the enthusiasm or interest that Americans afford trains, jets, and even bicycles. Dr. Christopher Wilk is a member of a small group of elevator experts who consider this a misunderstanding. Without the elevator, they point out, there could be no downtown skyscrapers or tall buildings, and city ‎ life as we know it would be impossible. In that sense, they argue, the elevator’s role in American history has been no less significant than that of cars. In fact, according to Wilk, the car and the elevator have been locked in a “secret war” for over a century, with cars making it possible for people to spread horizontally, and elevators pushing them toward life in close groups of towering vertical columns.‎ If we tend to ignore the significance of elevators, it might be because riding in them tends to be such a brief, boring, and even awkward experience—one that can involve unexpectedly meeting people with whom we have nothing in common, and an unpleasant awareness of the fact that we’re hanging from a cable in a long passage.‎ In a new book, Lifted, German journalist and cultural studies professor Andreas Bernard directed all his attention to this experience, studying the origins of elevator and its relationship to humankind and finding that riding in an elevator has never been a totally comfortable experience. “After 150 years, we are still not used to it,” Bernard said. “We still have not exactly learned to cope with the mixture of closeness and displeasure.” That mixture, according to Bernard, sets the elevator ride apart from other life experiences.‎ Today, as the world’s urban population explodes, and cities become more crowded, taller, and more crowded, America’s total number of elevators—900,000 at last count, according to Elevator World magazine’s “2012 Vertical Transportation Industry”—are a force that’s becoming more important than ever. It seems like high time that we looked seriously at just what kind of force they are.‎ ‎28. What does the underlined word “this” in Paragraph 1 refer to?‎ A. The general view of elevators.‎ B. The particular interests of experts.‎ C. The desire for a remarkable machine.‎ D. The enthusiasm for transport vehicles.‎ ‎29. The author’s purpose in mentioning cars is ______.‎ A. to contrast their functions with elevators’‎ B. to stress the importance of elevators C. to point out their secret war against elevators D. to explain people’s preference for elevators ‎30. According to Prof. Bernard, what has made the elevator ride different from other life experiences?‎ A. Vertical direction.‎ B. Fast speed.‎ C. Little physical space.‎ D. Lack of communication.‎ ‎31. The author urges readers to consider ______.‎ A. the exact number of elevator lovers B. the serious future situation of elevators C. the important role of elevators in city development D. the relationship between cars and elevators D ‎ Between the last application season and the current one, Swarthmore College, a school nationally knowned for its academic rigidness, changed the requirements for students who vied for admission into its next freshman class. It made filling out the proper forms easier.‎ Swarthmore is hardly alone in its desire to eliminate impediments to a bounty of applicants. Over the last decade, many elite colleges have adjusted their applications in ways that remove disincentives and maximize the chances that the number of students contesting to get in grows larger.‎ In one sense, that’s a sensible attempt to be sure that no qualified candidate is missed. But there’s often a less pure motive in play. In our society, a school’s reputation is improved by a low acceptance rate, which can even influence how U.S. News & World Report ranks it. And unless a school is cutting down the size of its student body, the only way to bring its acceptance rate down is to get its number of applicants up. So, many colleges methodically generate interest only to frustrate it. They encourage applicants for the purpose of turning them down.‎ And there can be other reasons for what looks like a loosening of application demands. Smith and several other similarly great colleges no longer require the SAT or ACT, and McCartney said: “That does not aim at attracting more applicants. It’s a recognition that top scores on those tests are related to high family income and may say more about an applicant’s economic advantages — including private SAT tutoring — than about academic potential.”‎ But will Swarthmore’s applicants this year give quite as much thought to its suitability for them, to whether it’s the right home? I’m betting not.‎ When it’s easy for a student to apply to yet one more college, there’s inadequate thought to a tailored match, which is what the admissions process should aim at. It’s what the measure of success should be.‎ ‎32. Which of the following can best replace the underlined word in paragraph 1?‎ A. competed B. made C. stood D. catered ‎33. In paragraph 3, the author suggests that .‎ A. It is not sensible for colleges to make these changes B. The role played by colleges is never pure in the society C. Colleges tend to downsize their student body to keep their reputation D. Colleges increase the number of applicants to improve their rankings.‎ ‎34. Kathleen McCartney holds that the results of SAT or ACT .‎ A. reflect testees’ academic potential to a large extent B. should be considered an essential measure of success C. are closely related to testees’ family income level D. play a vital role in applying for famous colleges ‎35. According to the author, the success of admissions process lies in .‎ A. accepting as many genuine students as possible B. making suitable match both for applicants and the school C. improving the school’s reputation nationwide D. increasing overall number of applicants for the school 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。‎ The Danger of Sharenting Babies, like cats, are everywhere on web. The vast majority of two-year-olds—more than 90‎ ‎ percent of them—already have online presence. 36 ‎ It is typical for adults to mention a child’s name and birthdate in birth announcements and other posts on sites like Facebook. 37 That is because someone may download images and information of another person’s kids and claims them to be their own. In addition, some parents even publish real-time information about their children’s whereabouts, potentially risking their safety.‎ Even posting baby phones to a private group is not without risk. 38 Parents don’t just have to make sure that the people they choose to share with don’t download, redistribute, or otherwise misuse images, they also have to make sure that the people who can access shared baby photos can control who else can use their social media accounts. Many people believe audience. 39 ‎ ‎ 40 Giving children the right to say no to sharenting is something they feel especially strongly about.‎ ‎ A. In reality, even these posts can reach a large audience.‎ B. By age of four, children have an awareness of their sense of self.‎ C. There is a false sense that everybody in the group knows each other.‎ D. They know what is happening with the information they are posting.‎ E. By doing this, they put kids at risk of identity theft and digital kidnapping.‎ F. More than 80 percent of babies younger than that are already on social media, too.‎ G. Children’s advocates argue that kids have a right to control their own digital footprint.‎ 第三部分 英语知识运用（共两节，满分45分）‎ 第一节 完形填空（共20小题；每小题1. 5分，满分30分）‎ 阅读下面短文，从短文后所给各题四个选项（A、B、C和D）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。‎ I was in a rush as always, but this time it was for an important 41 I just couldn’ t be late for!

I had hurried into the store to pick up some flowers for my upcoming evening. ‎ ‎ We were in Boston, a place not always 44 for small conversation between strangers.
