My city, neighbourhood and block are filled with people who don’t know me, don’t care to know me, and don’t talk to me. I find that it’s pretty hard to love people you don’t even know. And sometimes, we all, myself included, use that as an excuse not to try. I read Brendan’s story recently and was moved.‎ One day, Brendan, a young man in New York, was on the way back to his Brooklyn apartment when a homeless woman called Jackie asked him for money. He said that he had no money. By the end of the week, she asked two more times, and each time he answered “No”. The woman looked sad, so Brendan said, “I am on my way to a job interview. If I get the job, I will take you out for Chinese food.”‎ Brendan got the job. He took Jackie out for lunch. That was when their friendship began. They built a strong friendship by supporting each other and spending their birthdays, holidays and difficult times together, over a period of eight years. When Brendan’s heater broke, Jackie made a blanket for him. Two days later when he told her that he had lost his job, she left and returned minutes later, bringing him food to eat. She continued to do that during the whole winter. Even with so little, she often gave back.‎ Over these years, Jackie moved from the streets and subway stations into a halfway house, and is now moving into an apartment. To celebrate it,__Brendan wanted to do - 18 -‎ ‎ something special for Jackie. He went with her to Target, and helped her to pick out everything she would need for her new apartment.‎ May Brendan’s story encourage us to find a new way to honour, serve and love the people around us.‎ ‎【解题导语】　本文是一篇记叙文，主要讲述了Brendan帮助了无家可归的陌生人Jackie，最后他们成为好朋友并互相帮助的故事。通过这个故事，作者告诉人们：要尊重、帮助和爱我们周围的人。‎ ‎21．What can we learn about the author from Paragraph 1?‎ A．He often stays indoors.‎ B．He cares about his neighbours.‎ C．He is good at making friends.‎ D．He hardly talks to his neighbours.‎ D　解析：细节理解题。根据第一段中的“people I don’t know”和“people who don’t know me, don’t care to know me, and don’t talk to me”可知，作者与邻居几乎不说话。故选D项。‎ ‎22．What did Brendan do when Jackie asked him for money?‎ A．He was angry with her.‎ B．He didn’t give her any.‎ C．He offered her some food.‎ D．He gave her some spare change.‎ B　解析：细节理解题。根据第二段中的“By the end of the week, she asked two more times, and each time he answered ‘No’．”可知，当Jackie向Brendan要钱时，他没给她。故选B项。‎ ‎23．What does the underlined word “it” in Paragraph 4 refer to?‎ A．Jackie’s finding work at Target.‎ B．Jackie’s moving from the streets.‎ C．Jackie’s moving into an apartment.‎ D．Jackie’s moving into a halfway house.‎ C　解析：代词指代题。根据画线词前一句中的“Jackie moved from the streets and subway stations into a halfway house, and is now moving into an apartment”可知，画线词it指的是Jackie搬进新公寓这件事。故选C项。‎ B Google’s new camera, called Clips, is a small, smart device. It comes with a case that has a clip(夹子), but it’s not designed to be worn on your clothing. Most - 18 -‎ ‎ interestingly, it uses artificial intelligence to take photography out of your hands so it can capture moments on its own.‎ This roughly 2inch by 2inch camera, with a threehour battery life and Gorilla Glass for toughness, is intended for candid moments, like when a child does something cute that may happen too quickly for you to pull out your smartphone.‎ Onboard the Clips device, it uses machine learning algorithms(计算程序) to help capture scenes. Those algorithms include face recognition. “Once it learns that there’s a face you see frequently, it’ll try to get nice photos of those faces，” said Juston Payne, the device’s product manager. And they also want it to recognize facial expressions, which involved “training it to know what happiness looks like”. The Google team also trained it to recognize what not to shoot—like when a child’s hand is over the lens, or if it is tossed in a dark purse.‎ The only way to see the images is by connecting the camera with your phone, as it has no screen for viewing or editing.‎ Were people concerned it could seem strange? Yes, Payne admitted. But they said they addressed that by making it obvious what it is. A green light on the front signals that it is on. Besides, unlike a camera meant to monitor your home, it is not connected to the Internet.‎ ‎“This product is only possible because of the way that silicon has advanced，” Payne said, noting that it was only in the past year or so that they could squeeze the technology down into a device this size. Going forward, we’re likely to get more assistance from the artificial intelligence packed into our apps and gadgets.‎ ‎【解题导语】　本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了一台来自谷歌的新型智能相机。‎ ‎24．What is the most outstanding feature of Clips?‎ A．It is equipped with tough glass.‎ B．It enables easy Internet access.‎ C．It allows of handsfree photography.‎ D．It can be worn on your clothing.‎ C　解析：推理判断题。根据第一段中的“Most interestingly, it uses artificial intelligence to take photography out of your hands so it can capture moments on its own.”可知，它最突出的特点是允许免手持拍摄。‎ ‎25．Which of the following can replace the underlined word “candid” in Paragraph 2?‎ A．Short.　　　　　　　　 B．Touching.‎ - 18 -‎ C．Unforgettable. D．Embarrassing.‎ A　解析：词义猜测题。根据画线词后的“like when a child does something cute that may happen too quickly for you to pull out your smartphone(比如当孩子做了一件很可爱的事情，而这件事发生得太快了，你来不及拿出你的智能手机)”可推知画线词的意思是“短暂的”。‎ ‎26．What makes Clips a reality according to Juston Payne?‎ A．The popularity of the Internet.‎ B．The advance in technology.‎ C．The rise of the smartphone industry.‎ D．The reduction in the price of lens.‎ B　解析：推理判断题。根据最后一段中的“This product is only possible because of the way that silicon has advanced”可知，Juston Payne认为技术的进步使Clips成为现实。‎ C San Francisco has long been a favorite place for travelers who are ready to learn languages. The mild(温和的) yearround climate, shops and restaurants, bars and night life, and some of the most beautiful sceneries attract many visitors to this relaxing and welcoming city.

Spanish people drink CocaCola, wear blue jeans, watch Hollywood movies, listen to American music, and eat fast food, and they do all these things daily.‎ I think that American movies are a good way to spread American culture because people are often influenced by what they see in the movies. Most of the entertainment programs and documentaries we watch on TV are from America, and most of the movies we go to are made in Hollywood.‎ In the last few years, the government has tried to protect the Spanish movies. Now, in our cinemas, at least twenty percent of the movies which are shown must be - 18 -‎ ‎ from Spain or from a country of the European Union.‎ American culture is very much a part of Spanish life. It’s certain that many things from America are as much a part of their lives as Spanish things. For example, CocaCola is as familiar to everybody as any typical Spanish product. I’ve known CocaCola my whole life.‎ However, it’s different with Western fast food. For example, I don’t think McDonald’s is as successful in Spain as it is in other countries. In my opinion, one of the reasons may be the lifestyle of the Spanish people. The Spanish people normally eat at home.‎ It may be that McDonald’s hamburgers will eventually replace the famous Spanish tapas because in every city in Spain you can find a McDonald’s, and they are more popular among the Spanish children than among the adults. In any case, it’s obvious that American culture is more and more a part of our everyday life.‎ ‎________________________________________________________________________‎ ‎________________________________________________________________________‎ ‎________________________________________________________________________‎ ‎________________________________________________________________________‎ ‎________________________________________________________________________‎ ‎________________________________________________________________________‎ ‎________________________________________________________________________‎ One possible version：‎ Spain is being influenced by America, which can be seen from what people do daily.(要点1) As people are often influenced by American movies, the government has tried to take measures.(要点2) Take CocaCola for example, it is popular among the Spanish people.(要点3) As for McDonald’s, though not popular with the adults now, it may soon be part of our everyday life.(要点4)‎ - 18 -‎
