They make young people aware of life at an early age. The parents grant them the privilege of teaching the children, and the grandparents take great pride in raising the children or at least having a big part in raising them. Young children often stay with their grandparents for years at a time, developing a close and trusting relationship. The grandparents teach the children Navajo legends and the principle of life, emphasizing both new culture trends and the preservation of traditions. The grandparents are also often the leading figures in teaching the youth the arts of weaving, caring for the livestock, using herbal medicine, and other arts and crafts. The children are taught to respect their elders, to care for them, to help them whenever they are in need, and to learn from them. Young people are urged to listen with care to the words of their elders and to keep as much wisdom as possible. Grandparents often go to social gatherings and traditional events, and the young have opportunities to learn more about their culture and traditions. I live with my grandmother for thirteen years, and she raised me in the old ways of our people. Although I was going to school, she taught me as much as she could about our traditions. She was a beautiful woman. If I had a chance, I would listen again to her wise teachings, expressed with kindness in a soft voice that touched my heart. We used to plant corn and pumpkin every summer. They never grew big enough to feed us, but we planted them anyway. I asked my grandmother why. She said, “Grandson, our plants will be far more beautiful than the flowers outside the fence.” I did not understand until one day I saw their beauty as I was coming over the hill with her. She said, “Anything that is a part of you is always far more beautiful than the things which you pass by.” We had some beautiful years together. I am glad she is a part of me and I am a part of her. Children used to be well disciplined, possessing more respect for culture, tradition, and beliefs than they do now. The world of the Navajo has been influenced by the western world, and the grandparents have less control and influence than they used to. But the young people who have been touched by their teachings have glimpsed a way of life beyond what most people know today. 21. From Paragraph 1 we can learn that A. children learn about the meaning of life from their grandparents. B. grandparents are usually unwilling to teach their grandchildren. C. schools are not very popular with the Navajo youth. D. parents hate to take the trouble to raise children. 22. The author’s grandmother planted corn and pumpkin because she A. hated wild flowers. B. needed to feed her family. C. tried to make her fence more beautiful. D. wanted her grandson to learn a life lesson. 23. In the author’s opinion, A. grandparents are the source of traditional culture. B. his grandmother’s teaching could replace schooling. C. the western world is hardly influenced by the Navajos. D. it is impossible to get grandparents involved in teaching again. 24. The purpose of the article is to A. honor the author’s grandmother B. share with readers a Navajo culture C. emphasize the greatness of Navajo D. introduce the development of Navajo tribes B Magazine sales have generally been falling since the day the inventor of the Internet said, “Hey, why don’t I invent the Internet?” But the latest ABC figures, released this week, show that sales of certain titles are actually going up. News and current affairs magazines are becoming more popular—but celebrity(名人), gossip and fashion publications are still struggling. “Gossip and celebrity news is rarely something that requires detailed analysis—so it’s best suited to bite-sized content on social media,” says Ian Burrell, media columnist for The Drum. “Once it’s out there, it’s quickly shared and readers move on to the next star. No one wants to wait a week to read about it in a print magazine.” Fraser Nelson, editor of The Spectator, wrote this week: “There’s now too much writing online, and in an era of fake news, where you get your analysis from has never been more important. As newspapers and magazines are finding out, if you can publish writing that is consistently better than what can be found online, people will pay.” But many editors are struggling to strike the right balance between physical and digital content. They are faced with the choice of either posting all their articles online for free so the magazine stays relevant, or charging readers money to protect the financial future of the brand. As Burrell points out, most readers are hungry for a deeper understanding of the fast-moving changes in global news and politics rather than seeking to escape from it by burying their heads in celebrity gossip and entertainment stories. Serious times call for serious journalism. While general-interest daily news has been turned into an almost universally available commodity(商品) by the Internet, specialist journalism is still a service people value and think they can’t get elsewhere. 25. What does Ian Burrell think of celebrity news? A. It should appear on magazines. B. It isn’t worth analyzing. C. It should be read carefully. D. It is profitable to be included in magazines. 26. What did Fraser Nelson mainly stress? A. The importance of news sources. B. The significance of current affairs. C. The value of newspapers and magazines. D. The balance between physical and digital content. 27. What can be inferred from Burrell’s opinion in Paragraph 6? A. Most readers are fond of rapid changes. B. Most readers tend to escape from reality. C. Most readers like entertainment news best. D. Most readers show great interest in global news and politics. 28. Which of the following can be the best title for the text? A. Where Magazines Will Go in the Future B. What Makes Some Magazines Disappear C. How Magazines Are Surviving the Digital Age D. Why People Are Still Reading Fashion Publications C Imitation(模仿) might be considered the sincerest form of flattery (恭维), but if you take it too far in a job interview you could be giving the wrong impression to a potential employer. Scientists have discovered too much imitating in a job interview situation leaves an employer thinking you are incompetent, untrustworthy and not very likeable. Studies have shown that gentle imitation usually acts as a social glue in human relationships; it can promote trust. Two people who like each other will strengthen their bond by unconsciously imitating each other’s gestures in an unnoticeable way, such as leaning forward at the same time. But in recent years, imitation has been used as conscious approach by people who want to succeed in business. However, the new research suggests this could cost your reputation. The study was conducted by the University of California’s psychology department. Piotr Winkielman, a professor of psychology at the university in San Diego, said, “Imitation is an important part of social intelligence. But it is not enough to simply know how to imitate. It’s also important to know when and when not to. The success of mirroring depends on mirroring the right people at the right time for the right reasons. Sometimes the socially intelligent thing to do is not to imitate.” The study asked people to watch several stage videotaped interviews, some of which featured a friendly interviewer while, in others, the same person was unapproachable. The people being interviewed in the videos imitated the interviewer’s simple gestures — such as leg-crossing or chin-touching. Interviewees were then evaluated on their general competence, trustworthiness and likeability by participants. Despite the fact that the participants were not instructed to watch for imitation and reported no awareness of it, it still influenced their evaluations. Interviewees who imitated the unfriendly ‘boss’ were judged to be less competent than those who didn’t and their unconscious mirroring was observed as an error. Professor Winkielman added: “It’s good to have the capacity to imitate. But an important part of social intelligence is knowing how to use this ability in a selective, intelligent, situation-dependent manner, and understanding, when mirroring can reflect badly on you.” 29. If your imitation goes beyond limits in a job interview, the interviewer may think you are A. incompetent. B. smart. C. trustworthy. D. unfriendly. 30. What do Piotr Winkielman’s words in Paragraph 5 mean? A. People should avoid using imitation in a job interview. B. People should know what social intelligence is. C. Proper imitation involves lots of factors. D. Imitation is very difficult to learn. 31. What is the text mainly about? A. Imitation can promote trust in an interview. B. Body language is quite useful in an interview. C. It’s not easy to imitate an interviewer’s behavior. D. Improper imitation in an interview may cause trouble. D What is the nature of the scientific attitude, the attitude of the man or woman who studies and applies physics, biology, chemistry, geology, engineering, medicine or any other science? We all know that science plays an important role in our societies. However, many people believe that our progress depends on two different aspects of science. The first aspect is the application of the machines, products and systems of knowledge that scientists and technologists develop. The second is the application of the special methods of thought and action that scientists use in their work. What are these special methods of thinking and acting? First of all, it seems that a successful scientist is curious- he wants to find out how and why the universe works. He usually pays attention to problems which he notices have no satisfying explanation, and looks for relationships even if the data available seem to be unconnected. Moreover, he thinks he can improve the existing conditions and enjoys trying to solve the problems which this involves. He is a good observer, accurate, patient and objective and uses the facts he observes to the fullest. For example, trained observers obtain a very large amount of information about a star mainly from the accurate analysis of the simple lines that appear in a spectrum(光谱). He does not accept statements which are not based on the most complete evidence available. He rejects authority as the only basis for truth. Scientists always check statements and make experiments carefully and objectively. Furthermore, he does not readily accept his own idea, since he knows that man is the least reliable of scientific instruments and that a number of factors tend to disturb objective investigation. Lastly, he is full of imagination since he often has to look for relationships in data which are not only complex but also frequently incomplete. Furthermore, he needs imagination if he wants to guess how processes work and how events take place. These seem to be some of the ways in which a successful scientist or technologist thinks and acts. 32. Which of the following statements about a curious scientist is TRUE? A. He shows interest in condition-improving. B. He feels like exploring potential connections. C. He focuses on the problems with no reasonable explanations. D. He rejects authority as he believes himself to be the only reliable one. 33. According to the passage, a successful scientist would A. easily appreciate others' research work. B. easily believe in unchecked statements. C. always accept authority as the only basis for truth D. always use evidence from observation to the fullest. 34. Which word can be used to describe the author's attitude that a good scientist holds towards the scientific research? A. objective and careful. B. curious and casual C. cautious and arrogant. D. subjective and down-to-earth. 35. What does the passage mainly discuss? A. Key to a successful scientist. B. Scientists' ways of thinking and acting. C. Progress in modern science. D. Scientists’ application of modern technology. 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,并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Most smart phones allow you to run location-sharing software that uses the phone’s GPS capability to let friends and family know your exact location. There are lots of great uses for this technology. 36 So make sure you’re permitted to use an app or service, and pay attention to how you are using it. Here’re some important points you may find helpful. Choose what’s best for you. Some location-sharing services are games that let you give a shout-out when you’ve turned up at a particular spot. 37 Still others continue to share your location until you change the setting. Be sure you know exactly how your service shares your location. Know who your friends are. 38 This means people can search to see if you’re online and add you as a friend. It’s important to remember that sharing your location with people you’ve never met in real life is risky, so you should carefully manage friend requests and share your location only with people you know and trust. 39 Some services automatically stop sending your location after a period of time, but others will send it forever - until you stop it. Review your contact list periodically and delete anyone to whom you no longer feel comfortable revealing your location. Update parents. Location-based services are a great way for teens to let parents know where they are without having to call or text. 40 If you’re heading home late at night, you can also use a service like Glympse to share your location as you drive, so they’ll know if you have car trouble or get stuck in traffic. A. Check back often. B. Keep sending your location. C. However, these services are not for all children. D. With its help, you can easily share your location with them. E. Check-ins ease worries so they don’t have to follow your every move. F. Others show where you are all the time or for a period of time you set. G. Some location services operate like Facebook, where you invite and accept friends. 第三部分 语言知识运用(共两节,满分45分) 第一节 完型填空 (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A、B、C和D 四个选项中,选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 It is a blue, cotton shirt.

W: Fine, I’ve got that. I will see that he gets it as soon as he comes in on Monday. M: Good, thank you, goodbye. 13-16 M: Now, Mrs. Franks, I just like to read your statement back to you, and then you can write your name on it. W: Fine. M: I was standing in front of the Second National Bank building at about 8:50 am, I saw a small red car heading for the cross roads of Churchill Avenue, and York Road, it was coming towards me along Churchill Avenue at about 40 miles per hour. The traffic lights on York Road changed to green, and a delivery lorry began to move forward at about 5 miles per hour. The driver of the car probably didn’t see that his traffic light has changed from orange to red, and ran into the side of the lorry. W: That’s correct. 17-20 Welcome to Montfort School, thank you for choosing our school and for joining the happy Montfort family, which has been educating boys since 1916.
