B
I have three kids and a great husband and I’m enjoying a career that I find challenging and fun. This feels like “Success” to the outside world. But there is still a voice in my heart asking if this is who I truly am. Only in silence do I hear the self and wonder who that person might be．
So I booked a trip to find out. I travelled, for the first time, without my husband or kids．I went to Iceland with a friend, who shares an appreciation for wilderness and silence．
For six days, we were immersed in wild, raw scenery and real weather—all kinds of weather. Climbing a mountain against rain and returning to a tent for a simple meal reminds you how little you actually need. And how strong it feels to be uncomfortable sometimes．
I found silence in Iceland，and time to consider the me outside of career and the me outside of kids as I shared stories with strangers．
When I stopped talking and just listened，I became more generous．I 1earned that choosing to be generous can create more space, more food and more warmth．
But I didn’t really gain any better appreciation of what I want from life or my job．I suspect the anxiety that drove me to seek silence in Iceland was losing sight of my ability to choose gratitude and joy，and to be present in the challenges I set in my career and my family．
I came home to noise，rush and love；with no less confusion on who I want to be．I know the answer isn’t waiting out there on the top of a mountain in Iceland. The answer is in front of me with every step on my own 1ife’s path, and in every choice I make． 24. Why did the author take a trip to Iceland?
A. To gain a new experience． B. To enjoy family happiness． C. To better understand herself．
D. To appreciate natural beauty．
25. Which word can best describe the author’s trip?
A. Puzzling B. Thrilling． C. Relaxing． D. Demanding． 26. What change happened to the author after the trip?
A. She became more positive． B. She became more energetic． C. She became even lonelier． D. She became more anxious．
27. What will the author do in the future?
A. Withdraw back to nature． B. Embrace reality bravely． C. Travel to Iceland more often．
D. Pay less attention to her feelings．

C
It’s no surprise to hear the honking of horns in New York. Whoever tries every day to get more than a few minutes of sleep in the morning in the city will tell you that he could do nothing about it! No one can deny honking of horns is just one of his most widely enjoyed pastimes.
But Andy, a Japanese website developer has had enough of it. Once, the 27-year-old man approached the open window to wait for the driver to finish honking, delivered a polite \"excuse me\" and then yelled \" Ho-o-o-o-onk!\eggs from the window of his apartment on to a passing car honking loudly below when his patience was worn out. Instead of apologizing to him, the driver threatened to kill him angrily. So, nobly, Andy turned to non-violence. He started writing anti-honking haiku verses, a form of Japanese poetry, and submitted them to local newspapers:
Oh .forget Enron;
The problem around here is; All the damn honking
(Enron: a major American company that recently caused a scandal because of corrupt(腐败) mismanagement)
\"Then this kind of chain reaction started happening,\" Andy says. \"All these other haiku started appearing unexpectedly\" Andy’ s community is now covered in anti - honking poetry, written by all walks of life. Patience slowly fades;
Residents store up their eggs;
That day is coming soon.
It’s understandable that Andy has set up a website — www. honku. org — and now people from across the country send him news of their own anti - honking activities. It seems that poetry can change the world after all. Then, just recently, anti-anti- honking haiku started to appear, launched by locals who thought Andy should stop worrying about honking and start worrying about starving children, or war in the Middle East instead. Andy has an answer for that. \"Stop me if this is too ridiculous ,\" he says,\" but they talk about the violence in the Middle East like it' s a force of nature, like it' s beyond our control. But actually it's kind of like the honking - the violence is man -made. If we can figure out how to stop honking on the streets, I think we could learn some things that we could use on a large scale. \"
28. What does the first paragraph intend to tell us about New Yorkers?
A. They enjoy listening to the honking of horns B. Their life has been affected by the honking noise C. They get accustomed to sleeping late in the morning D. They have formed a habit of honking while driving 29. What is Andy’s final reaction to the frequent honking of horns?
A. Pretended to ignore it.
B. Screamed at the driver. C. Acted in a peaceful way. D. Complained to the government.
30. According to the passage, most New Yorkers think Andy's response is ___.
A. acceptable B. pointless C. sensitive D. abnormal

A. if not handled well, honking will cause serious problems like starvation B. fierce violence in the Middle East is more of an issue worthy of concern C. violence in the world as well as honking on the street is under our control D. finding the solution to anti - honking is as meaningful as that to starvation
D
Science Advances published a new research report, saying bees are capable of addition and subtraction (减法)in Arithmetic(算术) learning—using colors in the place of plus and minus symbols.
It isn’t unusual to see the ability to count—or at least distinguish between differing quantities in the animal kingdom—Such ability has been seen in frogs, spiders, and even fish. But solving equations (方程式) using symbols is rare, so far only achieved by famously brainy animals such as chimpanzees. The previous research says the social insects, ants, can count to four and understand the concept of zero and researchers wanted to test the limits of what their tiny brains can do.
The experiment goes like this. Scientists trained 14 bees to link the colors blue and yellow to addition and subtraction, respectively. They put the bees at the entrance of a Y-shaped maze (迷宫), where they were shown several shapes in either yellow or blue. If the shapes were blue, bees got a reward if they went to the end of the maze with one more blue shape (the other end had one less blue shape); if the shapes were yellow, they got a reward if they went to the end of the maze with one less yellow shape.
The testing worked the same way: Bees that “subtracted” one shape when they saw yellow, or “added” one shape when they saw blue were considered to have aced the test. The bees got the right answer 63% to 72% of the time, depending on the type of equation and the direction of the right answer—much better than random guesses would allow.
While the results came from just 14 bees, researchers say the advance is exciting. If a brain about 20,000 times smaller than ours can perform maths using symbols, it could pave the way to novel methods in artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning. Just don’t ask the bees to do your homework anytime soon.
32. From the first two paragraphs, we know that the scientists conduct the research _______.
A. to get access to machine learning
B. to explain the meaning of colors
C. to test the power of tiny brains D. to teach bees to learn maths
33. What does the underlined word “aced” in Paragraph 4 probably mean? A. given up B. got through
C. entered for D. checked over
34. What might the research make contributions to according to the text?
A. Development of AI.
B. Arithmetic learning. C. Protection of animals. D. Language acquisition.

第二节 七选五（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）
根据短文内容，从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。 It’s reported that half of around 7,000 languages on the earth are in danger of disappearing by 2100.There are many reasons for such disappearance. Sometimes younger generations stop learning a language because parents want children to fit in modern society. 36 For instance, native American children of the late-19th century were required to attend boarding schools where educators forbade them from speaking their native languages.
Endangered languages are ranked according to their risk level by the United Nations. A \"critically endangered\" language is one that even grandparents don't speak often. New York's Onondaga language is an example with only 50 speakers left. An \"extinct\" language has no speakers, which means it is gone forever. 37 The last person who spoke it died in 2008. So this language doesn’t exist any longer.
Various animals and plants benefit our environment. 38 Saving these languages benefits our understanding of other cultures. Languages can show how a society looks at the world and what it values. The Endangered Language Alliance, a non-profit group, wants to save languages from disappearing. 39 However, its efforts are limited. If an endangered language is going to make a real comeback, it'll probably get its start in schools. Now students in Hawaii can keep learning Hawaiian from elementary schools to college and beyond.
40 At least one did. In 1881, a Jewish linguist named Eliezer Ben-Yehuda brought the 3,000-year-old language Hebrew back to life. Today it is one of the official languages of the country of Israel, with more than 4 million speakers.
A. Alaska's Eyak language is one example. B. Why should we save endangered languages?
C. With just five speakers left, it is absolutely endangered. D. Can a language with zero native speakers come back to life? E. Similarly, different languages contribute to cultural diversity. F. Sometimes societies force minorities to give up their language. G. The organization finds native speakers and records their stories. 第三部分 英语知识运用（共两节, 满分40分）

The scientists studied networks of a group of students aged 5 to 12 and 43 how the
youngsters’ made and dropped friends, and 44 effect these changing relationships had on their physical activity level.
In fact, children 45 their exercise level little by little to better 46 those in their circle; children who 47 with more active students were more 48 to increase their physical activity levels, 49 those who befriended more sedentary(久坐不动的) children became 50 active.
