Moore’s account is different. He shows that far from being fearless, she could often be fearful without cause. The final volume will include her fall from power.‎ Harold Wilson by Ben Pimlott (1992)‎ Harold Wilson had become a ghostly figure when this book was published in 1992. The absence heightened a sense of mystery. Who was he? How to explain his seemingly contradictory characteristics? Pimlott solves some of the mysteries; the book is detailed until Wilson’s final phase as prime minister in 1974.‎ Churchill by Roy Jenkins (2001)‎ Jenkins writes a politician as well as a historian, analyzing Churchill’s historic moves from the opinions of one who had also spoken in the Commons. Jenkins had resigned from high positions in battles over policy, and as one that changed parties, though ‎ not as frequently as Churchill did.‎ Roy Jenkins by John Campbell (2014)‎ Campbell calmly narrates the many political and personal dramas, including Jenkins’ intense relationship with Anthony Crosland when they were both students at Oxford. Campbell also addresses Jenkins’ various affairs with women. Like Jenkins’s political heroes, he led many lives. Campbell is sharp in describing each of them.‎ Diaries, Volumes One to Six by Alastair Campbell (2017)‎ Love or hate him, Campbell remains the master of the inside story, and not just because of his unusual ideas on the relationship between Tony Blair and Gordon Brown. This is an incredibly detailed book on what it’s like to live inside No. 10: the cruel space of events; and the constant conflict with the media. ‎ ‎ 21. Which writer was once a politician?‎ ‎ A. Ben Pimlott. B. Charles Moore.‎ ‎ C. John Campbell. D. Roy Jenkins.‎ ‎ 22. Which of the following leaders has the largest number of books written about them?‎ ‎ A. Margaret Thatcher. B. Harold Wilson ‎ C. Churchill. D. Tony Blair.‎ ‎ 23. What’s purpose of the author’s writing the passage?‎ ‎ A. To introduce some histories on selections.‎ ‎ B. To think highly of some famous leaders.‎ ‎ C. To tell some mysteries about historians.‎ ‎ D. To recommend some books on leaders.‎ B Sometimes we experience pain that seems just too big to feel, too frightening to face - it looks like a tsunami. So, we run. My tsunami came when I was nine years old.‎ I was woken up by my mother’s screams - “Bob? Bob?! BOB!” I ran to my parents’ bedroom. My father was on all fours, unconscious. My mother was crazy - desperately ‎ trying to figure out how to stop what was happening. I ran to the phone - 9-1-1, the neighbors, anyone - “help us!” Soon rescue came, but my father didn’t come back to life.‎ When my friends came to comfort me, I remember “pulling myself together” as I walked toward them, determining to show them that I was fine.‎ The more I denied my pain, the more I was praised by the adults around me-”Oh, look how strong she is!” So, I kept saying “I’m fine.” Over and over and over. I said it enough - performed it enough - that I even fooled myself. I believed that I was okay.‎ But pain doesn’t just “go away” - that whole “time heals” thing is a total crock. 30 years after my father died, when I looked around for an explanation for all the years of destructive behavior, I couldn’t find the root of the pain in my life because I had covered it up so well. All the “I’m fine” - 30 years of them - buried the pain of that nine years old girl.‎ Her pain had been trying to come out, to be heard, to be healed.‎ And, finally, it was.‎ After years of treatment, I found my way back to that night where the pain started, back to the tsunami. This time, I didn’t run. It hurt - it still hurts - but now, when it hurts, I let the pain come. I’m not scared to say, “I’m not fine” - because I know, eventually, I will be. ‎ ‎24. What did the author do when her father was in danger? ‎ ‎ A. She tried to comfort her crazy mother. ‎ ‎ B. She offered first aid to him at once.‎ ‎ C. She asked for help without delay. ‎ ‎ D. She was too afraid to do anything.‎ ‎25. Why was the author praised? ‎ ‎ A. She behaved politely.‎ B. She seemed to be confident.‎ C. She could look after herself.‎ D. She could handle the blow properly.‎ ‎26. Which of the following can best replace the underlined word “crock” in Paragraph 5? ‎ A. fact B. theory C. experiment D. lie ‎27. What lesson can we get from the author’s experience? ‎ ‎ A. Expressing pain is not very easy. ‎ B. Hiding our pain can be harmful.‎ ‎ C. Being strong means hiding one’s pain.‎ ‎ D. Children are good at covering up their pain.‎ C Singapore is planning to cut off web access for public servants as a defence against potential cyber attacks—a move closely watched by critics who say it marks a retreat(退缩)for a technologically advanced city-state that has trademarked the term “smart nation”.‎ Some security experts say the policy, due to be in place by May, risks damaging productivity among civil servants and those working at more than four dozen statutory(法定的)boards, and cutting them off from the people they serve. It may only raise slightly the defensive walls against cyber attack, they say.‎ Ben Desjardins, director of security solutions at network security firm Radware, called it “one of the most extreme measures I can recall by a large public organization to fight cyber security risks”. Stephen Dane, a Hong Kong-based managing director at networking company Cisco Systems, said it was “a most unusual situation” and Ramki Thurimella, chair of the computer science department at the University of Denver, called it both “unprecedented(前所未有的)”and “a little excessive(过分的)”.One 23-year-old manager, who gave only her family name, Netagale, said blocking web access would only harm productivity and may not stop attacks.” Information may leak through other means, so blocking the Internet may not stop the unavoidable from happening,” she said.‎ But other cyber security companies said that with the kind of threats governments face today, Singapore had little choice but to restrict Internet access.‎ FireEye, a cyber security company, found that organizations in southeast Asia were ‎ 80% more likely than the global average to be hit by an advanced cyber attack.‎ Singapore officials said no particular attack led to the decision but noted a leakage of one ministry in 2015. David Koh, CEO of the newly formed Cyber Security Agency, said officials realized there was too much data to secure and the threat “is too real”. ‎ ‎28. Why does Singapore decide to cut off web access for public servants?‎ A. To increase civil productivity.‎ B. To prevent potential cyber attacks.‎ C. To match her trademark of “smart nation.‎ D. To raise wide awareness of cyber attacks.‎ ‎29. What does the third paragraph mainly discuss?‎ A. Agreement with the government’s plan.‎ B. Support for the government’s plan.‎ C. Arguments over the government’s plan.‎ D. Suggestions on the government’s plan. ‎ ‎30. What is the possible disadvantage of the government’s decision?‎ A. Slight improvement in defence against cyber attacks.‎ B. Loss of working efficiency in many statutory departments.‎ C. Reduction of large cyber security companies and websites.‎ D. More leakage of data from government organizations.‎ ‎31. According to what David Koh says, we can infer that ______‎ A. the Singapore government has been warned of the data security. ‎ B. all the Singapore government data is in danger of being attacked. ‎ C. the Singapore government is always threatened by cyber attackers.‎ D. cyber attacks can happen any time and too much data needs protection.‎ D Cities are likely to be affected by overheating, thanks to something called the urban heat island effect. Cities tend to be short of trees, which provide shade, and they are covered with black pavement(人行道), which absorbs heat from the sun. Think of how it feels to wear a dark shirt versus a white shirt on a sunny day. A black ‎ shirt absorbs light, heating you up. But a white shirt reflects light, keeping you cool.‎ The average temperature in a city of a million or more people can be more than 5 degrees F hotter than surrounding areas. That extra 5 degrees can turn a hot day from uncomfortable to deadly. As temperatures rise, cities will be an especially dangerous place to be during a heat wave. To protect public health, city officials are going to make the city cooler.‎ As part of that effort, Los Angeles is coating its roads in CoolSeal, a gray paint that keeps streets and parking lots 10 degrees cooler than black asphalt（沥青）. It will help Angelinos save money during the summer, when air conditioning sends power bills soaring. And it will save lives by lowering temperatures and improving air quality. Hot weather worsens air pollution by turning car exhaust into smog, which can make life miserable for people with asthma（哮喘）and other breathing problems.‎ Of course, LA will have to do more than paint over a few streets to cool off the city. Angelinos will also need to plant more trees and apply white paint to rooftops — at least those not already covered in solar panels. While LA is a pioneer of reflective streets, other cities, like New York, are already experimenting with reflective roofs or, like Melbourne, lowering the temperature by planting trees. LA is hardly alone in its effort to stay cool.‎ ‎“This is an urgent challenge, and it’s much bigger than one person,” said Mayor Garcetti in a recent statement. “Climate change is a fact of life that people in Los Angeles and cities around the world live with every day.” ‎ ‎32. What should the city officials emphasize during hot summer?‎ A. Where to wear a white shirt.‎ B. How to make the city cooler.‎ C. Why to coat the roads with black paint.‎ D. When to cut off the electricity supply. ‎ ‎33. Which of the following contributes to the urban heat island effect?‎ A. Planting more trees in the streets.‎ B. Covering the streets with white paint.‎ C. Applying reflective paint to rooftops.‎ D. Furnishing every house with air conditioners.‎ ‎34. What benefit can people gain from the use of CoolSeal?‎ A. Making life easier and more comfortable.‎ B. Increasing the indoor activities.‎ C. Reducing the number of cold day.‎ D. Promoting the sale of air conditioners.‎ ‎35. What’s the main idea of the passage?‎ A. Angelinos are suffering from overheat from greenhouse effect B. L.A. calls on people to fight against global warming.‎ C. More and more countries begin to plant trees in the streets.‎ D. L.A. is painting its streets white to keep the city cool.‎ 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。‎ George Burgess, the director of the Florida Program for Shark Research, explains there are three situations where you might need to know how to avoid a shark attack. First, you’re in the water when you spot a shark. 36 And third, you find yourself in the shark’s mouth.‎ Get Out of the Water The first thing that you should try to do is getting out of the water “gracefully”. That is ,don’t make a bunch of splashing(喷洒) that will attract unwanted attention. 37 Divers can try hiding in a rock or reef or going back-to-back with a partner so that you have eyes on all sides. As a swimmer, your options are more limited.‎ Poke(戳) It Hard and Fast ‎ 38 It can be achieved with the poke-to-the-nose approach. Poking the shark on the nose is your best bet, as the nose is especially sensitive. Because the nose is located directly above the shark’s mouth. Ideally, this would be a spear or knife, but if you don’t happen to have one handy in you swimsuit, even a swim fin(蹼) will ‎ do. 39 You can also aim for the gill(鳃). The shark is likely to recover quickly, so you’d better get away as fast as you can once you’ve made your move. ‎ Should All Else Fail ‎ If you find yourself in the shark’s mouth, fight back as hard as you can. Do this by literally aiming to penetrate(刺入) the eyes and gills, but hitting anything you can so that the shark release you from the life and death situation.‎ ‎ 40 You should show to the shark that you are big and strong. Don’t miss the ways to survive just about anything.‎ A. Sharks are dangerous to swimmers.‎ B. Second, the shark is for sure coming after you.‎ C. Whenever you meet a shark, you should be weak. ‎ D. You want to discourage the shark from actually biting you.‎ E. No matter when faced with a shark, you don’t want to be passive.‎ F. The point is to use something besides your own body so the shark can’t bite you.‎ G. Position yourself in a position of power so that the shark has less access to you.‎ 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,从短文后各题所给的四个选项(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。‎ Hiking through the mountains of Colorado was never my plan.
