In other words, you need to be fully aware of the items you’re not allowed to bring before you travel abroad.‎ Obscene(淫秽) and pirated(盗版) materials In many Western countries, possessing and transporting underage porn(黄色书刊) is considered a serious crime. According to the United States Department of Justice, a first-time offender charged with producing child porn faces fines and 15 to 30 years in prison. The website of UK Visas and Immigration also listed pirated copies of movies and music as illegal, because they infringe upon intellectual property rights. If you’re caught bringing pirated products into the UK, the products will be confiscated, and you may face prosecution(起诉).‎ Food, animals and plants According to Australia’s Department of Immigration and Border Protection, Australia has strict quarantine laws. Animals from overseas could bring diseases and pests into the country and destroy the local environment.‎ Cash There is a limit of cash you can bring when traveling abroad. According to UK Visas and Immigration, the maximum amount of cash(including bankers’ drafts and checks) you can bring into the country is ￡10,000(72,000 yuan). You’ll have to declare it if you’re brining more, or you could face a fine of up to ￡5,000 (46,000 yuan). But if you’re entering the UK from another European Union country, you don’t need to declare your cash, no matter ‎ how much you have.‎ Other items Customs rules vary from country to country. For example, when entering Australia you also need to declare traditional medicines because they may contain endangered plant or animal products. Heritage-related goods, including artworks and stamps, also need to be declared. This ‎ is why you should always check the local customs website to make sure of what you can put into your luggage, and of course, your electronic devices.‎ ‎21. Which of the following items may be allowed to bring without declaring when you enter Australia?‎ A. Traditional medicines B. Pet dogs and cats C. Stamp albums D. Story books ‎22. What can we know from the passage?‎ A. Travelers should declare their cash when entering the UK from Germany B. Both the USA and the UK have laws against obscene and pirated materials C. You can bring more than ￡10,000 without declaring when you enter the UK from China D. Taking traditional medicines to Australia may destroy the local environment ‎23. Where is the article above probably taken from?‎ A. A travel brochure B. A fashion magazine C. An exhibition guide D. A science report B ‎ On October 19, 1959, the first Special English program was broadcast on the Voice of America. It was an experiment. The goal was to communicate by radio in clear and simple English with people whose native language is not English. Experts said the goal was admirable, but the method would not work. They were proved wrong. The Special English programs quickly became some of the most popular on VOA. And they still are.‎ Forty years later, Special English continues to communicate with people who are not fluent in English. But during the years its role has expanded. It also helps people learn American English. And it provides listeners, even those who are native English speakers, with information they cannot find elsewhere.‎ Today, Special English broadcasts around the world seven days a week, five times a day. Each half-hour broadcast begins with ten minutes of the latest news followed by 20 minutes of feature programming. There is a different short feature every weekday about science, development, agriculture and environment, and on the weekend, about news events and American idioms.‎ Three elements make Special English unique. It has a limited vocabulary of 1500 words. Most are simple words that describe objects, actions or emotions. Some are more difficult. They are used for reporting world events and describing discoveries in medicine and science. Special English is written in short, simple sentences that contain only one idea. No idioms are used. And Special English is spoken at a slower pace, about two-thirds the speed of Standard English. This helps people learning English hear each word clearly. It also helps people who are English speakers understand complex subjects.‎ Through the years, Special English has become a very popular tool for teaching English, even though it was not designed as teaching program. It succeeds in helping people learn English in a non-traditional way. Individuals record the programs and play them over and over to practice their listening skills. In countries around the world, English teachers assign Special English to their students. They praise it for improving their students’ ability to understand American English and for the content of the programs. Universities and private companies in many countries produce packages of Special English materials for student use.‎ ‎24. At the beginning, Special English program was .‎ A. doubted by some professionals B. rejected by native people C. well received D. intended for teaching English ‎25. What kind of English is spoken on Special English?‎ A. British English B. Not certain C. Both British and American English D. American English ‎26. Which of the following are the elements that make Special English unique?‎ a. limited vocabulary b. short simple sentences c. good communication method d. slow speed e. interesting feature programming A. a, c, d B. a, b, d C. b, d, e D. a, b, c ‎27. From the last paragraph we can infer that .‎ A. listening to Special English can be a student’s homework B. listening to Special English can improve the content of the program C. some student record the Special English material for sale D. learning English from VOA is a traditional way for English learner C ‎ Not long ago, people thought babies were not able to learn things until they were five or six months old. Yet doctors in the United States say babies begin learning on their first day of life. Scientists note that babies are strongly influenced by their environment. They say a baby will smile if her mother does something the baby likes. A baby learns to get the best care possible by smiling to please her mother or other caregivers. This is how babies learn to connect and communicate with other human beings. One study shows that babies can learn before they are born. The researchers placed a tape recorder on the stomach of a pregnant woman. Then, they played a recording of a short story. On the day the baby was born, the researchers attempted to find if he knew the sounds of the story repeated while in his mother. They did this by placing a device in the mouth of the newborn baby.‎ The baby would hear the story if he moved his mouth one way. If the baby moved his mouth ‎ the other way, he would hear a different story. The researchers say the baby clearly liked the story he heard before he was born. They say the baby would move his mouth so he could hear the story again and again.‎ Another study shows how mothers can strongly influence social development and language skills in their children. Researchers studied the children from the age of one month to three years. The researchers attempted to measure the sensitivity of the mothers. The women were considered sensitive if they supported their children’s activities and did not interfere(干预) unnecessarily. They tested the children for thinking and language development when they were three years old. Also, the researchers observed the women for signs of depression. The children of depressed women did not do as well in tests as the children of women who did not suffer from depression. The children of depressed women did poorly in tests of language skills and understanding what they hear.‎ These children also were less cooperative and had more problems dealing with other people. The researchers noted that the sensitivity of the mothers was important to the intelligence development of their children. Children did better when their mothers were caring, even when they suffered from depression.‎ ‎28. According to the passage, which of the following is NOT the factor that influences intelligence development in babies?‎ A. The environment. B. Their peers C. Mother’s sensitivity D. Education before birth ‎29. What is the purpose of the experiment in which newborn babies heard the stories?‎ A. To prove that babies can learn on the first day they are born B. To show mothers can strongly influence intelligence development in their babies C. To indicate early education has a deep effect on the babies’ language skills D. To prove that babies can learn before they are born ‎30. Which group of children did the worst in tests of language skills?‎ A. The children of women who did not suffer from depression B. The children of depressed but caring mothers C. The children of depressed mothers who cared little for their children D. Children with high communication abilities ‎31. What is the main idea of the passage?‎ A. Scientific findings about how intelligence develops in babies B. Scientific findings about how babies develop before birth C. Scientific findings about how time has an effect on babies’ intelligence D. A study shows babies are not able to learn things until they are five or six months old D ‎ Self-driving cars are so popular that the University of Michigan has even established a town called Mcity to allow car manufacturers to safely test their autonomous cars.‎ While Mcity can be used to simulate(模拟) many real-life road conditions, it cannot help test gestures drivers use to communicate their intention to other drivers, pedestrians or cyclists. To find a solution, US car manufacturer Ford, with researchers from Virginia Tech, initially considered using text as a way to communicate the car's intention, but decided it would probably not work universally. The option of using symbols was also discarded, because research shows that a majority of people do not have a good understanding of what they mean.‎ Finally, the researchers settled on light signals. A white light warned that there were no humans in the car. A slow blinking one indicated that the car was coming to a stop, while a rapidly flashing light cautioned passersby that the car was about to accelerate.‎ Then came the big challenge-testing the signals on real roads. “We needed to try out this new lighting to communicate the intention of the vehicle, but if you’ve got a driver behind the seat, you still have natural communication between humans,” said Andy Shaudt, who led the Virginia Tech research team. “So we needed to make it look like a driverless ear.”‎ The team designed a car seat costume(戏装) that the driver would wear to cover his/her face and upper body. Of course, the drivers could see very clearly. The researchers then equipped the car with cameras to capture human reactions to a light bar on the windshield(挡风玻璃), which flashed one of the three signals when appropriate. Six drivers, all keeping their hands low on the wheel so as not to be detected, took turns to test driving the car through the busy streets.‎ The overall reaction to the flashing lights was very encouraging. Who knew costumes could be useful for more than Halloween?‎ ‎32. What did the team first consider using as a way to communicate the car's intention?‎ A. Light B. Language C. Symbols D. Sound ‎33. The underlined word “they” in the second paragraph refers to .‎ A. svmbo1s B. drivers C. researchers D. flashes ‎30. What does a rapidly flashing light mean?‎ A. The car was coming to a stop B. There was no driver in the car C. The car was about to speed up D. The car was about to slow down ‎31. The car seat costume was intended to .‎ A. amuse the driver B. attract the pedestrians C. warn the cyclists D. confuse the people 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。‎ How to Love Year Parents ‎ Even if you think that your parents are mean-spirited(小心眼的) at times, loving your parents is a normal and fulfilling part of life. You love them for the fact that they created you, raised you, and are in part, a source of who you are. 36 .‎ Tell them you love them every morning. A gentle "good morning" and "I love you" will warm a coldest heart. Remember that they brought you into this world. Without your parents, we might still wander at an unknown corner in an unknown world.‎ Respect them more and cherish these moments. You can use these moments to learn from them, preparing yourself for when you're off on your own. It's OK to get angry but angry actions don't help you or your parents. Act calmly, cool off, write down your feelings, or talk to a friend. 37 .‎ Obey their requests. It will make your attitude better and earn you more respect from them. It may seem as if you are going through hell when you don't get what you want or you have to clean. However, you had better remember they keep a roof over your head when it's cold, raining, snowing, or too hot. Understand that parents are human beings and make mistakes. 38 Since you can forgive your friends, why not forgive your parents?‎ Keep company with them. Do things with your parents like watching TV, or go somewhere with them. 39 Listen to their old stories and learn from them. You will find they are your teachers in this way or another.‎ Some people simply may not be able to love their parents. 40 Seek help if you are being abused in anyway. Parents do not have a right to harm you.‎ A. Please remember parents are as important as friends B. Parents will in turn express their love to you C. Forgiveness is the key D. Here are some ways to love your parents E. There can be realistic reasons for this, family violence for example F. Anyway, spend as much time with them as you can G.
