Her songs find the kind of memory every listener holds somewhere in their heart. This kind of feeling is what people have always liked in Adele,” said The Telegraph. “She writes a pop diary, sharing the simple secrets of her heart.”     Most successful pop stars make albums at a fast pace, but not Adele. After her second album 21 won the 2012 Grammy Award for Album of the Year, she made it clear with her label that she would spend “four or five years” making her next album. She told magazine. “I won't come out with new music until it's better than - 24 - / 24‎ ‎ 21.”     Instead of seeking fame, Adele remained silent and moved to the countryside. In her free time, she loved to watch TV series Teen Mom, American Horror Story, and The Walking Dead.     Living life as normally as possible is important to the singer's art. “Nobody wants to listen to a record from someone who's not living in the real world,” Adele told i-D.“So I live a low-key life for my fans.” ‎ ‎24.What does the text mainly tell us?‎ A、The popularity of Adele's album 25 B、The healing powers of Adele's music C、The secrets of Adele's success in music D、TV reason for Adele's becoming a singer ‎25.What does the underlined sentence in Paragraph 2 probably mean?‎ A、Adele wasn't interested in music ‎ B、Adele wasn't good at music at first C、Music wasn't very important in Adele's life - 24 - / 24‎ D、Music wasn't all Adele wanted to be devoted to ‎26.Why doesn't Adele want to make albums at a fast pace?‎ A、To live a low-key life B、To win the Grammy Award C、To guarantee the quality of her music D、To share the secrets of her heart as a musician ‎27.What can we know about Adele?‎ A、Her album Hello will come out on Nov. 20 B、She has kept a diary since childhood C、She moved to the countryside before 2012 D、Her works are based on real life C Some pigs lend to be optimistic while others are more pessimistic, according to a new research that is meaningful to animal welfare. The study, published in the journal Biology Letters, is the first to show that mood and personality interact in an animal, influencing judgment.‎ ‎    Asher, a researcher at the University of Newcastle's Institute of Neurowcience, and her team housed groups of pigs in two types of environment. One reflected standard commercial conditions and the other was cushier with more space and plenty of soft, deep straw. After the pigs got accustomed to these new homes over a few weeks, the researchers picked 18 pigs - 24 - / 24‎ ‎ from each type to train and test their judgment.‎ ‎"To do this, we trained each pig that in one corner of a training room there would be a bowl with chocolate sweets — pigs love them — and at the opposite side of the room there would be a bowl that would contain coffee beans, which pigs find bitter-tasting," a researcher said.‎ Over a number of training trials, pigs learned to go to the bowl reliably when it was in the corner where they had figured out to expect chocolate sweets. On the contrary, they quickly learned to avoid the bowl when it was in the corner where they would expect to find the coffee beans.‎ ‎    The rescearchers next placed an unfamimliar bowl in different locations, to see how the pigs would react. Some gaily dashed to the bowl no matter what, showing optimism that it would contain their favorite sweets. Others, however, behaved as though they expected it to contain coffee beans, displaying pessimism.‎ ‎    The findings suggest that a one-size-fits-all answer to animal welfare issues does not exist. Even if pigs are just equal to bacon or other meal for some people, there is still cause for concern. Students have suggested that how an animal is treated during its lifetime can directly affect meat - 24 - / 24‎ ‎ quality and taste.‎ ‎28.What was the study trying to figure out?‎ A. How to make pigs happier..‎ B. The similarities between humans and pigs.‎ C. How living environment affected pigs’mood.‎ D. How pigs’ mood and personality affected their judgment.‎ ‎29.What does the underlined word “cushier” in Paragraph 2 mean?‎ A. simple.         B. more comfortable. C. Impractical. D. less free.‎ ‎30.Which bowl can test whether a pig is optimistic or pessimistic?‎ A. The bowl with chocolate sweets. B. The bowl containing coffee beans.‎ C. The bowl full of both sweets and beans. D. The bowl unfamiliar to two types of pigs.‎ ‎31.What do the findings of the new research imply?‎ A. People should treat pigs equally. B. People's health relies on meat quality.‎ C. People should meet pigs' various needs. D. People's attitude toward pigs is totally wrong.‎ D ‎ Food companies target China’s surging single - 24 - / 24‎ ‎ economy（单身经济）‎ With diners gathered around cauldrons（大锅） of boiling soup, dropping meat and vegetables into the broth, hot pot is known as the typical Chinese dish. And the country’s dominant chain has a new weapon to attract single diners: Stuffed bears（毛绒熊）.The introduction of large plush toys to accompany single diners in the 200 outlets of the Haidilao chain highlights the efforts of businesses in China—They take advantage of a demographic（人口统计学的）shift creating a rising number of single consumers.‎ ‎“They help people feel less lonely,” said Wang Ping, a waitress at a Haidilao in Shanghai, suggesting a large teddy bear and a stuffed yellow chicken to choose from.‎ China’s population of adults living alone has grown 16 percent since 2012 to reach 77m, according to government statistics. By 2021, the number is set to rise to 92m.The shift is driven by a trend towards late marriage in China, led by prosperous cities. 16 percent of China’s urban population now live alone, according to the data.‎ Companies have responded to the trend. Japanese chain MUJI has introduced smaller rice cookers, ovens and kettles aiming at Chinese singles. “Singles are the most important group of - 24 - / 24‎ ‎ customers for us,” said Wang PuZhong, general manager of Meituan’s on-demand delivery service. “Chinese food is quite complicated. Because it takes a lot of time, single people think it is a waste of time compared to ordering a take-out,” he added.‎ 32. What does the underlined word “dominant” mean in Paragraph 1?‎ A. Main. B.Small. C.Expensive. D.Great.‎ 33. What can be inferred about the businessmen in this passage?‎ A. They are afraid of failure. B.They want to make a lot of money for their family.‎ C.They are creative and hard-working. D.Most of them are very successful.‎ 34. What leads to the rise in the number of singles in China?‎ A.

Which of the following is not mentioned in the passage?‎ A. A famous restaurant chain is using a new way to attract customers.‎ B. A foreign chain created new products aiming at Chinese singles.‎ C. Many Chinese singles don’t want to cook themselves.‎ - 24 - / 24‎ A. By 2021,the number of singles will reach 77m.‎ 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 avoid a boring conversation ‎    What excuses should you use to avoid talking to people you don’t want to talk to? Here are tips and non-offensive ways to get out of unwanted conversations.‎ Go for a refill. It is natural for anyone at a party to be excused to get a refill (续杯). 36.  And once you excuse yourself, make a move fast before the person requests you to get a refill for him as well.‎ Pretend bad mood.
