My parents are in their late 70s, and while they are quite healthy for their ages. I worry about what messages they are going to give me.‎ I got such an email in September from my father. He sent an email from my cousin who told that her father, my uncle Reese, had passed away. The news made my mind go blank though I have met him less than a dozen times in my life, because Reese was the first of my parents’ siblings (兄弟姐妹) to die, and I was simply not ready for that.‎ The memorial service was set in Florida, and I quickly decided I needed to go. I needed to be there for my father, and I needed to go for myself. Reese is about nine years older than my father, and I started to do the math in my head. I know that doesn’t make sense, but I will do anything to reason that I still have a lot of time before I will be in my cousin’s shoes.‎ Reese’s memorial service was small with only family and perhaps a dozen of his friends. The funeral (葬礼) was attended by an even smaller number, and then, the family gathered at a nearby bar to look at old photographs found among Reese’s possessions when he died.‎ As we drove back to the Orlando International Airport, I thought about how I am not sure ‎ what my parents want, not only in their memorial services, but also how they want to be remembered and where they want to be laid to rest. These are going to be difficult conversations, but I know I need to have them. Maybe not right now, but we do need to open the discussion at some point. It may feel too early, but I trust my parents will know that when adult children raise these questions, we do it out of love to honor their lives and their wishes.‎ ‎21. Why do email s with “FYI” make the author uneasy?‎ A. She’s too busy to read those emails.‎ B. She dislikes her parents, nonstop talking.‎ C. She’s afraid to get bad news about her parents.‎ D. They often bring unpleasant news.‎ ‎22. How did the author feel about the email from her cousin?‎ A. Disappointed. B. Shocked. C. Confused. D. Annoyed.‎ ‎23. What do we know from the third and fourth paragraphs.‎ A. A get-together was held at home.‎ B. Reese's friends didn't appear.‎ C. The author went to Florida without much hesitation.‎ D. Quite a few people attended the funeral.‎ ‎24. What does the author decide to do after the funeral?‎ A. Have a talk with her parents about death B. Express her love for her parents bravely ‎ C. Value her parents’ wishes.‎ D. Get everything ready for her parents.‎ B Donald John Trump, born on June 14 1946, is an American businessman. As the Republic Party's nominee for president m the 2016 election, he defeated Hillary Clinton in the general election on November 8,2016.‎ Trump is the chairman and preside of The Trump Organization, which is the principal holding company for his real estate (房地产) ventures and other business interests. During his career, Trump has built office towers, hotels, casinos, golf courses and other branded facilities worldwide.‎ Trump was born and raised in New York City and received a bachelor's degree in economics from the Wharton School of the University of Pennsylvania in 1968.

As of 2016, he was listed by Forbes as the 324th wealthiest person in the world, and 156th in the United States.‎ In June 2015, Trump announced his candidacy (候选人资格) for president as a Republican and quickly emerged as the front runner for his party’s nomination. In May 2016, his remaining Republican rivals suspended (暂停) their campaigns, and in July he was formally nominated for president at the 2016 Republican National Convention. Trump’s campaign has received unprecedented media coverage and international attention. Many of his statements in interviews, on Twitter, and at campaign rallies (集会) have been controversial or false. Several rallies during the primaries were accompanied by protests or riots.‎ ‎25.

The average American throws away 33 pounds of food each month-about $40 worth, which means each person throws away almost 400 pounds of food. The US Department of Agriculture says that 23% of eggs and an even higher percentage of produce ends up in the trash.‎ ‎“We feet we have all these fresh fruits and vegetables, and at the end of the week we have to throw them away,” said Esther Gove, a mother of three young children in South Berwick, Maine. “Now, I don’t buy as much fresh produce as I used to.”‎ A. More examples of food waste ‎ B. Ways to reduce food waste C. Experts’ idea on the environment D. Advice for food with high prices D After a year of examining many studies concerning whether homework is effective. NYC P.S. Elementary School decided that math worksheets and essay assignments were actually a waste of time. In February, Principal Jane Hsu sent a letter to parents slating that the Pre-K(学前班) through fifth grade students wouldn’t be given any traditional homework to encourage kids to have free time for reading, playing outside, or doing activities they enjoy.‎ ‎“The negative effects of homework have been well established.” Hsu wrote in a note to parents. “They include: children’s frustration and exhaustion, lack of time for other activities and family time and, sadly for many, loss of interest in learning.‎ Some parents, however, disagree with the policy change, believing that a lake of focus will ‎ cause children to fall behind. Homework has been part of education from the beginning, and has increased in amount in recent years.‎ Hsu’s advice that children should read and spend time with their families has upset some parents to the point of considering pulling their children out of the school. This group feels that homework gives children a goal to work toward. Others feel so strongly about the importance of homework that they have begun giving their own homework to their children.‎ An Australian Childhood Foundation survey finds that 71% of Australian parents feel they don't spend enough quality time with their children mainly because of the time spent running the household or the time spent helping with homework. Education experts in Australia are saying that parents should stop helping. Doing so will give kids more independence, give parents more free time, and help reduce the number of arguments caused by homework in the family.‎ While some research suggests that homework has little academic benefit for elementary students, other researches show homework can help kids develop independence, and confidence. It can also contribute to a sense of belonging or control over their lives. When parents try to help their children with homework, the assistance can take away that feeling and can also make working parents more tired.‎ ‎33. Cancelling traditional homework is aimed at .‎ A. allowing students to learn on their own.‎ B. motivating students to help with homework C. inspiring students to seek self-development D. wishing students to spend more time with parents.‎ ‎34. Why are some parents strongly against Principal Jane Hsu?‎ A. They don’t think the school is responsible for their kids.‎ B. They dislike their kids doing too many activities.‎ C. They have no time to give their children homework.‎ D. They are afraid their kids will become worse than others.‎ ‎35. What is the author’s attitude to parents’ helping kids with homework?‎ A. negative B. neutral C. supportive D. unconcerned 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。‎ You have been given the task of organizing a conference, which includes a must-done list about a mile long. 36 .
