The upper floor is a quiet zone with over a thousand places for silent reading, and places where you can sit and work with your own computer. The reading places consist mostly of tables and chairs. The ground floor is the zone where you can talk. Here you can find sofas and armchairs for group work.‎ Computers ‎   You can use your own computer to connect to the Wi-Fi specially prepared for notebook computers. You can also use library computers, which contain the most commonly used applications, such as Microsoft Office. They are situated in the area known as the Experimental Field on the ground floor.‎ Group-study places ‎   If you want to discuss freely without disturbing others, you can book a study room or sit at a table on the ground floor. Some study rooms are for 2-3 people and others can hold up to 6-8 people. All rooms are marked on the library maps.‎ ‎   There are 40 group-study rooms that must be booked via the website. To book, you need an active ‎ University account and a valid University card. You can use a room three hours per day, nine hours at most per week.‎ Storage of Study Material ‎   The library has lockers for students to store course literature. When you have obtained at least 40 credits(学分), you may rent a locker and pay 400 SEK for a year’s rental period.‎ Rules to be Followed ‎   Mobile phone conversations are not permitted anywhere in the library. Keep your phone on silence as if you were in a lecture and exit the library if you need to receive calls.‎ ‎   Please note that food and fruit are forbidden in the library, but you are allowed to have drinks and sweets with you.‎ ‎56.Library computers on the ground floor              .‎ A. contain software essential for schoolwork B. are for those who want to access the Wi-Fi C. are mostly used for filling out application forms D. help students with their field experiments ‎ ‎57.What condition should be met to book a group-study room?‎ A. Applicants must mark the room on the map. B. One should first register at the university ‎ C. A group must consist of 8 people. D.. Three-hour use per day is the minimum ‎58.A student can rent a locker in the library if he               .‎ A. can afford the rental fee B. has earned the required credits C. has nowhere to put his books D. attends certain courses B ‎   In the animal kingdom, weakness can bring about aggression in other animals. This sometimes happens to humans also. But I have found that my weakness brings out the kindness in people. I see it every day when people hold doors for me, pour cream into my coffee, or help me to put on my coat. And I have ‎ discovered that it makes them happy.‎ ‎    From my wheelchair experience, I see the best in people, but sometimes I feel sad because those who appear independent miss the kindness I see daily. They don’t get to see the soft side of others often; we try every way possible to avoid showing our weakness, which includes a lot of pretending. But only when we stop pretending we're brave or strong do we allow people to show the kindness that’s in them.‎ ‎    Last month, when I was driving home on a busy highway, I began to feel unwell and drove more slowly than usual. People behind me began to get impatient and angry, with some speeding up alongside me, honking (按喇叭) or even shouting at me. At the moment I decided to do something I had never done in twenty four years of driving—I put on the car flashlights and drove on at a really low speed.‎ ‎    No more angry shouts and no more horns!‎ ‎    When I put on my flashlights, I was saying to other drivers," I have a problem here. I am weak and doing the best I can. " And everyone understood. Several times, I saw drivers who wanted to pass. They couldn’t get around me because of the stream of passing traffic. But instead of getting impatient and angry, they waited, knowing the driver in front of them was in some way weak.‎ ‎    Sometimes situations call for us to act strong and brave even when we don’t feel that way. But those are few and far between (稀少的).More often, it would be better if we don’t pretend we feel strong when we feel weak or that we are brave when we are scared.‎ ‎59.The author has discovered that people will feel happy when             .‎ A. they receive others' help ‎ B. they show their weakness C. they offer their help []‎ D. they feel others’ kindness ‎60.The author feels sad sometimes because             .‎ A. some people pretend to be kind B. some people fail to see the kindness in others C. he relies much on others D. he has a soft heart ‎61.What did the other drivers do when they saw the flashlights?‎ A. They waited with patience. B. They tried their best to help.‎ ‎ C. They put on their flashlights too. D. They speed up to pass.‎ ‎62.In this passage, the author advises us to             .‎ A. accept help from others B. show our bravery C. handle problems by ourselves D. admit our weakness ‎ C Recordings of angry bees are enough to send big, tough African elephants running away, a new study says. Beehives (蜂窝)一either recorded or real—may even prevent elephants from damaging farmers’ crops.      In 2002, scientist Lucy King and her team found that elephants avoid certain trees with bees living in them. Today, Lucy wants to see if African honeybees might discourage elephants from eating crops. But before she asked farmers to go to the trouble of setting up beehives on their farms, she needed to find out if the bees would scare elephants away.     Lucy found a wild beehive inside a tree in northern Kenya and set up a recorder. Then she threw a stone into the beehive, which burst into life. Lucy and her assistant hid in their car until the angry bees had calmed down. Next, Lucy searched out elephant families in Samburu National Reserve in northern Kenya and put a speaker in a tree close to each family.     From a distance, Lucy switched on the pre-recorded sound of angry bees while at the same time recording the elephants with a video camera. Half the elephant groups left the area within ten seconds. Out of a total of 17 groups, only one group ignored the sound of the angry bees. Lucy reported that all the young elephants immediately ran to their mothers to hide under them. When Lucy played the sound of a waterfall (瀑布) instead of the angry bees to many of the same elephant families, the animals were undisturbed. Even after four minutes, most of the groups stayed in one place.     Lucy is now studying whether the elephants will continue to avoid the sound of angry bees after hearing it several times. She hasn’t tested enough groups yet to know, but her initial results were promising enough to begin trials with farmers. She has now begun placing speakers in the fields to see if elephants are frightened away. ‎ ‎63.We know from the passage that elephants may be frightened of ____. A. loud noises B. angry bees C. some crops D. video cameras 64.As mentioned in the passage, Lucy ______. A. works by herself in Africa B. has stopped elephants eating crops C. has got farmers to set up beehives on their farms D. needs to test more elephant groups 65.Why did Lucy throw a stone into a wild beehive? A. To make a video of elephants.. B. To find out more about the behavior of bees. C. To record the sound of bees D. To see if elephants would run away 66.Which of the following is true according to the passage? A. Young elephants ignore African honeybees. B. Elephants do not go near trees with bees living in them. C. Farmers do not allow Lucy to conduct tests in their fields. D. Waterfalls can make elephants stay in one place.‎ ‎ D When I was going home to India last year, I called up my mother to ask if she wanted anything from china.      When India had not opened up its markets to the world, I carried suitcase loads of dark glasses and jeans. Thankfully, we can get all these anywhere in India now.      Still, her answer surprised me: “Green tea.”      As long as I can remember she didn’t even drink Indian tea.      I dutifully bought a big packet of Longjing and headed home to hear the story. My mother and her brother, both regular newspaper readers, believed that Chinese green tea was the wonder drug for all illnesses.      At the turn of the century, China was not really familiar to the average Indian. It was a strange country. ‎ ‎     How things change! And how soon!      Now every town of any size seems to have a “China Market”. And everyone is talking about China.      The government of India has planned to send a team to China to see how things are done. A minister once said that India must open the doors for more foreign investment and such a step would “work wonders as it did for China”.          But it’s a two-way street. I just heard about a thousand Shenzhen office workers who have gone to Rangalore to train in software. Meanwhile, all the IT majors are setting up a strong presence in China.     No wonder that trade , which was only in the millions just ten years ago, is expected to hit about US$15 billion for last year and US$20 billion by 2017, a goal set by both governments.      No wonder, my colleague wrote some weeks ago about this being the Sino-Indian(中印)century as the two countries started on January 1 the Sino-Indian Friendship Year.      But what is still a wonder to me is my mother drinking Chinese tea. 67.Why did the mother ask for Chinese green tea? A. She was tired of Indian tea B. She believed it had a curing effect C. She was fond of Chinese products. D. She had a son working in china.. 68.What does the author mean by “it’s a two-way street’ in Paragraph 10? A. China and India have different traffic rules. B. Chinese products are popular in both China and India. C. The exchanges between India and China benefit both. D. Tea trade works wonders in both India and China. 69.What do we know about the Indian IT industry? A. It will move its head office to Shenzhen. B.. It has attracted an investment of US$15 billion C. It caught up with the US IT industry in 2017.. D. It is seeking further development in China 70.In the text the author expresses _____. A. his concern for his mother’s health B. his surprise at China’s recent ‎ development C. his wonder at the growth of India’s IT industry D. his support for drinking Chinese green tea ‎ ‎  第II卷 非 选 择 题 （共35分）‎ 第四部分 任务型阅读（共10小题；每小题1分，满分10分）‎ 请认真阅读下列短文,并根据所读内容在文章后表格中的空格里填入一个最恰当的单词。注意:每个空格中只填一个单词。‎ ‎     Teenagers today live in a very competitive world where people are always running after something or another. It is more important than ever to succeed at school if you hope to have a chance in the job market afterwards. It ’s no wonder that many young people worry about disappointing their parents and their classmates. In order to please everyone, they take on too many tasks until it becomes harder and harder to balance homework, sports activities and friends. The result is that young people suffer from stress. No stress will lead one to become lazy and unproductive, but stress can become negative when one experiences it for a long period. Stress can result in poor memory and anxiety which are very harmful to teenagers’ body.‎ There are many different ways of dealing with stress; one of them is to exercise. Research has proved that physical exercise is a good release for stress, because it increases certain chemicals in the brain which can calm you down.‎ Food is the source of our energy. Because of long working hours, people usually choose to eat microwave reheated food or junk food. However, when a person eats a lot of food that is high in sugars and carbohydrates(碳水化合物), he/ she will feel a “sugar rush” which leaves him / her with less energy and then lower confidence levels. So don’t become a victim of stress eating . Instead , try to divide your meals properly, eat at right times and eat healthy food consisting of green leafy vegetables.‎ Another way to avoid stress is by managing your time effectively . It is better to do a few tasks really well than to do lots of tasks badly. Know your limit and try not to take on too much . Of course, you should have a “to-do ” list so that you can do the important tasks before the less important tasks.‎ Last but not least , find time to sit down quietly, try to empty out your mind of all thoughts and breathe deeply for ten to twenty minutes. Do this regularly, and it will help you calm down and relax.‎ These are a few ways on how to avoid stress. It’s in your hands whether you want to live a comfortable and meaningful life.‎ Title: Get rid of stress The71._______of teenagers’ stress ‎• 72________ in a very competitive world, teenagers have to succeed at school in the hope of finding a good job.‎ ‎• They also worry about making their parents or classmates 73__________. ‎ The harm of stress ‎• Stress can make people’s memory 74________.‎ ‎• Stress can cause anxiety which is harmful to people’s body.‎ ‎ The 75_______ to deal with stress Taking exercise Physical exercise 76. ________ certain chemicals in the brain which calm you down.‎ ‎77________ right ‎• Stress eating will make people have 78________ energy and lower confidence level.‎ ‎• People should eat at right times and eat healthy food Managing your time 79________‎ ‎• Try not to take on too much work.‎ ‎• Do the important tasks before the less important tasks.‎ Regular relaxation Find time to sit down quietly and take a deep 80________.‎ 第五部分 书面表达 （满分25分）‎ A man came home from work late, tired and exhausted.

Then she borrowed some money from her father and asked him to sell one hour of his time to accompany her.‎ After reading the passage, I was lost in thought. From my own perspective, however busy parents are, they should make time to accompany their children.‎ My parents are such persons who are always willing to spend time with me. I can well remember that more than one year ago, my parents gave up their once-in-a-life-time opportunity of visiting Hong Kong and accompanied me to the new senior school. So nervous did I feel in the new environment that I was at a loss what to do. Fortunately, with their company and encouragement, I overcame my fear and fit in well. It was the first time that I had felt so close to my parents.‎ As far as my personal experience is concerned, parents’ company is like the lighthouse, with the guidance of which we will go forward in the right direction ‎ and reach our goals.‎
