I took a baggy red shirt, for I needed something to wear in art class. Mom was surprised. She wore that when she was pregnant with my younger brother.‎ The red shirt became a part of my college wardrobe. After graduation, I wore the shirt the day I moved into my new apartment and on Saturday morning when 1 cleaned. When I became pregnant, 1 wore the red shirt during big-belly days. I missed Mom and the rest of my family. But that shirt helped. I smiled, remembering that Mother had worn it when she was pregnant, 15 years earlier. That Christmas, thinking of the warm feelings the shirt had given me, I wrapped it in holiday paper and sent it to Mom. When Mom wrote to thank me for her “real” gift, she said the red shirt was lovely. She never mentioned it again. The next year, when my husband and I moved the kitchen table, I noticed something red taped to its bottom. It was the shirt! And so the pattern was set.‎ On our next visit home, I secretly placed the shirt under Mom and Dad’s mattress. Two years passed before 1 discovered it under the base of our living-room floor lamp. The red shirt was just what I needed now while refinishing furniture. The walnut stains added character.‎ Years later, my husband and I divorced. With my three children, I prepared to move back to Illinois, depressed. Suddenly I saw the stained red shirt. I smiled. After unpacking in our new home I visited her, and I hid it in her bottom dresser drawer. Meanwhile, I found a good job at a radio station. A year later I discovered the red shirt hidden in a rag bag in my cleaning closet. The shirt was Mother’s final gift. Mother died three months later.‎ I was tempted to send the red shirt, faded but in decent shape, with her to her grave. But I’m glad I didn’t, my older daughter is in college now, majoring in art. And every art student needs a baggy red shirt to wear to art class.‎ ‎25. Where did the author get the shirt for the first time?‎ A. In art class in college B. In unwanted bags of clothes C.

What does the underlined phrase “the pattern” refer to in the text?‎ A. Visiting the parents regularly B. Moving the kitchen table regularly C. Secretly giving and receiving the shirt D. Often tapping something to the bottom of the table ‎28. What is the important reason for the author’s valuing the shirt so much?‎ A. That her daughter needs it in art class B.

It’s everything you’d hoped for, but there’s only one problem — housing costs in the area are so high that you’re forced to live in a parking lot.‎ While this sounds like an impossible situation, this predicament is a reality for one man.‎ Brandon, 25, is a software engineer for Google at its San Francisco, California campus.‎ ‎“I realized I was paying too large an amount of money for the apartment I was staying in, and 1 was almost never home,” he told Business Insider. “It’s really hard to justify throwing that money away. You’re not putting money into anything and you are not building it up for a future.”‎ Since scoring his job in May 2015 following a successful internship, he’s been living in a truck on a parking lot a short distance from his workplace.‎ The tech worker makes up for the lack of facilities by eating, using the bathroom and ‎ showering at work, also charging his phone and computer there.‎ San Francisco is home to the most expensive rental market in the US, with the average rental for a one-bedroom apartment coming to $ 3,590 (24,900 yuan) a month, according to property site Zumper.‎ And while some may not be able to handle giving up life’s luxuries just to put aside some cash, Brandon estimates that he’s saved almost $ 28,000 since he moved in just over 18 months ago.‎ ‎“Not only do I get to invest all of that redirected rent money, but I get to invest all the money I’m not spending on furniture, facilities and buying food,” Brandon wrote on his blog.‎ ‎29. Which of the following can replace the underlined word “predicament” in Paragraph2？‎ A. possibility B. disappointment C. dilemma D. mess ‎30. Why does Brandon prefer to live in a truck on a parking lot?‎ A. Because he has no time to go back to an apartment.‎ B. Because the rent is too high and he thinks it isn’t worthwhile C. Because his workplace provides him with what he needs D. Because he wants to save money for an apartment of his own.‎ ‎31. What does Brandon think of his choice?‎ A. Difficult B. Embarrassing C. Painful D. Wise D Pigeons may only have a brain the size of a thimble (顶针), but it appears that pigeons can categorize and name objects in the same way human children learn new words.‎ A new study from the University of Iowa has shown that the birds are capable of learning to categorize 128 different photographs into 16 basic categories.‎ Scientists taught three pigeons to sort out different kinds of dogs or types of shoes, for example by using a particular symbol in exchange for a reward. When they were shown black and white pictures of previously unseen dogs or shoes, the birds were able to correctly match these with the corresponding symbols.‎ The scientists behind the project say this is a similar approach taken by young children when they are first learning words for objects. However, the researchers said it look their birds around 40 days to perfect the task of learning just 16 categories.‎ Professor Edward Wasserman, who led the work, said: “Our birds’ rate of learning appears to have been quite slow. Would children learn faster than pigeons? Almost certainly. However, our pigeons came to the experiment with no background knowledge at all. Thus, the more relevant comparison group may be newborn babies, who indeed take 6-9 months to learn their first words.”‎ Writing in the journal Cognition, the researchers said their experiment was a very simple mirror of the way children are taught words — by their parents pointing to pictures and asking them to name the object.‎ Pigeons are known to be smarter than many birds. Professor Bob McMurray, who also took part in the study, said the results showed that human learning is not as unique as was previously believed.‎ He said: “Children are facing a huge task of learning thousands of words without a lot of background knowledge to go on. For a long time, people thought that such learning is special to humans. What this research shows is that the ways in which children solve this huge problem may be shared with many species.‎ ‎32. What’s the main idea of this passage?‎ A. Pigeons and young children take a similar approach to learn words.‎ B. Pigeons are known to be smarter than newborn babies.‎ C. Pigeons recognize objects in the same way children learn words.‎ D. Pigeons are unique as they can learn like humans.‎ ‎33. Why does the writer think newborn babies are the more relevant comparison group?‎ A. They don’t have any background knowledge.‎ B. They learn relatively slow.‎ C. Pigeons and newborn babies learn at a similar speed.‎ D. Young children are smarter.‎ ‎34. From the passage, we can learn that .‎ A. learning without background knowledge is unique to humans B. many species may be able to learn without background knowledge C. pigeons are able to solve many huge problems D. pigeons are known to be the smartest birds ‎35. The passage is intended to .‎ A. introduce pigeons B. prove a fact C. support an opinion D. report a study 第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）‎ 根据短文内容，从短文后选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。选项中有两项为多余选项。‎ Do you still remember the haze (雾霾) in the winter?
