Four interesting books in discount.‎ B Matthew Layton was 20 minutes from home in Sevierville, Tennessee, on a cold November night in 2016 when he got a cell phone call from his mother. "The mountain’s on fire,” she screamed, “and Brian’s up there!”‎ Layton’s family owned a dozen rental cabins(小屋) on Shields Mountain, and Layton’s friend and fellow rental-cabin owner, Brian McGee, age 56, was up there trying to put the fire out by himself. Layton, 32, hit the gas. He lived on the mountain too.‎ Layton turned around and headed for a dirt road. He made it about halfway up the steep, winding path before his front-wheel-drive car gave up. He called McGee, who drove down in his pickup so they could fight the fire together.‎ They headed first to Layton’s rental cabins. “I wanted to make sure our guests were gone. They were,” says Layton. At that point, he had a choice: try to save his cabins or rescue people renting other cabins nearby. “On the mountain, you don't have many locals. They’re mostly tourists who don’t know their way around,” he says.‎ Over the next two hours, the two friends drove through the smoky mountain, knocking on doors and leading panicked people to safety. “I know that mountain so well,” Layton says, “I could drive and know exactly where I am just by time traveled.” Thanks to their brave and immediate action, the two helped 14 people out of the danger.‎ Fourteen people died that night in Sevier County. But the fire didn’t take away a single life on Shields Mountain. And though his home and business were destroyed, Layton remains calm. “I wasn’t worried about my loss, not when I saw those families trapped on the mountain,” he says, “I knew I was gonna help them.”‎ ‎24. Where was Layton when the fire broke out?‎ A. Visiting his mother. B. Away from his home.‎ C. Heading for the cabins. D. Driving on a dirt road. ‎ ‎25. What can we learn from Para.2-3?‎ A. Layton’s car broke down halfway. B. Brian was in charge of Layton’s cabins.‎ C. Layton picked up Brian on the path. D. Brian lived in the mountain alone. ‎ ‎26. Why could the two friends rescue the people?‎ A. They put out the fire before it spread. B. They turned to locals for help.‎ C. Layton was familiar with the area. D. Brian gave up his own cabins.‎ ‎27. What did Layton mean in the last paragraph?‎ A. He blamed himself. B. He suffered a lot.‎ C. He was relieved. D. He felt sorry. ‎ ‎ C ‎ If your friends are happy—turns out you’re more likely to be happy too. If your friends are overweight, that too ups the chances you’ll gain weight. Those effects have been shown in studies. And now researchers have identified another seemingly contagious quality: exercise.‎ The researchers analyzed the running activity of more than a million people worldwide who used an exercise tracking device(装置) for five years. And they used weather patterns as a way to randomly examine different parts of that global network.‎ Cities have different weather patterns, Sinan Aral, a computational social scientist at MIT says, this experiment allowed them to ask: Does a rainy day in New York affect running in San Diego? “If the weather in New York causes changes in the running behavior in San Diego, it can really only be happening through the influences of the friends who live between New York and San Diego.”‎ And that is exactly what he and his colleague saw: that the behavior of one city’s runners could indeed affect the behavior of runners in another socially connected city. Women tended to be influenced more by the female runners in their networks. And less active runners tended to influence more active runners to run more, but not so much the other way around. ‎ Still, this could be valuable for health professionals. “We have to start thinking about consumers and citizens as networked consumers and citizens. Where they are influenced by and influence their social network in very strong ways, that will change the way a particular intervention(干涉) succeeds or fails.”‎ In other words—if your prescription is more exercise? The doctors might want to write a prescription for your friends and family, too.‎ ‎28. Which does the underlined word “contagious” in Para. 1 mean?‎ A. Affected. B. Excellent. C. Beneficial. D. Different.‎ ‎29. What can we conclude from the experiment? ‎ A. Weather changes people’s feelings. B. People’s behaviour affects each other.‎ C. Exercise has something to do with weather. D. People’s connection depends on distance.‎ ‎30. What does “this” in Para. 5 refer to?‎ A. Women are easier influenced by male runners.‎ B. People in the same city affect each other more.‎ C. Friends tend to influence each other in exercising.‎ D. A rainy day in one city affects running in another. ‎ ‎31. Which of the following can be the best title for the text?‎ A. Think twice before running. B. More exercise benefits health.‎ C. Weather patterns affect running behavior. D. Healthy behavior can spread like illness.‎ ‎ D Many Americans think of driverless cars as a futuristic technology that will revolutionize travel in cities and along state highways. But recent experiments are proving that autonomous vehicles also have the potential to improve the quality of life for millions of Americans underserved by traditional modes of transportation, such as the elderly and disabled, so long as lawmakers make smart policies that pave the way for innovation. ‎ A retirement community in San Jose, Calif. , which has been transformed by a small fleet of driverless taxis, shows the potential of self-driving cars to transform people’s lives. Built by a tech start-up called Voyage, the modified Ford Fusions are currently limited to a two-mile road, but residents are already having the benefits of these autonomous vehicles, which allow them to participate in social activities they would otherwise be unable to enjoy simply because they could not get to them. ‎ When the trial run finally expands to 15 miles of road, these residents—whose average age is 76—will also have a convenient and reliable new way to appointments. As these cars continue to serve residents there, it is easy to understand why California is moving to simplify regulations for the industry. ‎ In Michigan, forward-thinking policies have the potential to unlock other hidden benefits of autonomous vehicles, especially for those with physical disabilities. The Michigan Disability Rights Coalition has strongly advocated for the development of this technology, saying that it could give people with disabilities greater opportunities in the workforce and enable them to lead more fulfilling, independent lives. ‎ Many recognize that autonomous vehicles will be the future of transportation, but it is too often overlooked that this future cannot arrive fast enough for millions of Americans who are forced to depend on others for day-to-day travel. The policymakers should follow the lead of places like California and Michigan, and pass rules and regulations to unlock these hidden benefits of driverless cars. ‎ ‎32. What’s the attitude of most American people to the future of autonomous vehicles?‎ A. Curious. B. Doubtful. C. Indifferent. D. Optimistic.‎ ‎33. What is the modified Ford Fusion?‎ A. A kind of autonomous vehicle. B. A fleet of driverless taxis. ‎ C. A road for driverless cars. D. A retirement community.‎ ‎34. What are examples in California and Michigan to prove?‎ A. Driverless cars’ disadvantages. B. Governments’ right decisions.‎ C. Benefits to the aged and the disabled.‎ D. The regulations are forward-thinking.‎ ‎35. What does the author attempt to inform us in the last paragraph?‎ A. The benefits of driverless cars have been fully unlocked. ‎ B. Regulations should go hand in hand with driverless technology. ‎ C. The concept of autonomous vehicles has been widely recognized.‎ D. The weak groups are often overlooked despite technology advances.‎ 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。‎ Each year thousands of Chinese tourists visit Cambridge, not to see the beauty of a great university, but to pay homage(敬意) to a poem—Xu Zhimo’s Farewell to Cambridge. 36 As one of the most famous romantic poets of Chinese literature, he is known for his promotion and contributions to modern Chinese poetry.‎ To honor him, in July 2008, a stone of white marble was set up at the Backs of King's College, Cambridge (near the bridge over the River Cam). 37 It records the poet’s feelings of sorrows at departing from Cambridge where he had studied between 1920 and 1922. 38 He was also influenced by French romantic and symbolist poets at that time. The poem is his signature work, most frequently recited at shows. He was one of the first Chinese writers to successfully naturalize Western romantic forms into modern Chinese poetry.‎ ‎ 39 It is a good embodiment(典型) of his life-long devotion to explore poetic qualities— poetic licence, creation and beauty. He creates a beautiful poetic imagery just like the fresh bridge, rainbow and cloud. In such imagery, poem can tell about its own aesthetic(美学的) feelings. 40 ‎ A. Xu Zhimo got the honor in Cambridge. ‎ B. The beauty of this poem impressed the readers.‎ C. Xu Zhimo was an early 20th century Chinese poet.‎ D. It was at Cambridge that he fell in love with English romantic poetry.‎ E. On it are written the first two and last two lines from this poem.‎ F. The poem possesses true feelings, fresh language and elegant style.‎ G. Music and color can appeal to the imagery by use of the two senses, ear and mind.‎ 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）‎ Mary, 16, was suffering from cancer.

It may also be due to people’s universal thought that they want to leave a generous impression of themselves to others. But anyhow, we should not waste food.‎ It is widely believed that there are still masses of people suffering from hunger. The most direct result of our waste is the decline of available food which could feed on lots of people. On the other hand , wasting food will make us fall in the habit of ignoring the lack of resource, because of which, the environment will get worse.‎ In order to achieve this, we ought to avoid wasting every bit of food, and meanwhile, to be a spreader, let the good atmosphere of saving fill up our family.‎
