All shes ever wanted to do is to become an elementary school teacher. However, Hipp has racked up(累计) $100,000 (about 0.67 million yuan) in student loan debt and isnt able to earn enough through working as a part-time skating instructor and restaurant server to live anywhere other than home.To some degree, multigenerational households have always been a part of American life. However, the number of adults who have been moving back in with their parents or never leaving home in the first place has been growing steadily.The Pew Research Center recently reported that 2016 was a milestone in the evolving living arrangements of young adults in the US. Until 2016, the most common living arrangement for young adults was to be living in their own property as part of a couple. UBS Financial Services, a Swiss global financial services company, released a report that even suggests one reason for the growing number of young adults still living at home could be that their family doesnt want them to leave. The report shows that 74 percent of millennials (千禧一代) get some kind of financial support from their parents after college. Millennials see their parents as peers, friends and mentors. In return, their parents happily provide financial support well into adulthood, helping fund everything for them. Stuart Hoffman, chief economist for the PNC Financial Group in the US, said “Although job growth for millennials since 2014 has improved, that doesnt necessarily mean that millennials are starting to fly the nest, he said. “They may like living at home and being able to save money.”He added, “While it has held back household formation and purchases on things, they are probably traveling more and eating out more. I dont know if it represents a change in moral values, its much more common for adult children to live in their parents homes because its becoming part of the culture.”8. Whats the purpose of Caitlin Hipps story?A. To prove the authors view. B. To introduce her situation.C. To present the topic.D. To make readers rethink about the problem.9. What does the underlined part (Paragraph1) probably refer to?A. live with parents B. live independentlyC. stay at home D. leave home10. According to Hoffman, which of the following is true?A. It isnt necessary for millennials to leave the nest.B. Job growth for millennials since 2004 has improved.C. Moral values are changing gradually.D. Young adults are living in a different life style.11. Whats the main idea of the passage?A. Why is the number of the millennial growing steadily?B. Why has the percentage of adults living with their parents been on the rise?C. Why are parents willing to help fund for young adults?D. Why do more adults treat their parents as peers, friends and guides?DRed wolves used to be a common sight across the southeastern United States. But today, there are just 50 left in the wild.The red wolf is one of the most endangered wild canine species（犬科动物）in the world. In the past five years, the species population in the wild has dropped by half. The US Fish and Wildlife Service had been working for decades to reintroduce the species into the wild, but the organization recently put the program on hold.According to Cindy Dohner, the southeast regional director for the Fish and Wildlife Service, the agency is focusing on our commitment to get the science right and rebuild trust with our neighbors in those communities as we address problems regarding the recovery of the red wolf. But the animal-rights group Defenders of Wildlife said on its website that the decision made by the Fish and Wildlife Service falls well short of what is needed to continue red wolf recovery.The red wolf was declared an endangered species in 1967. By1980, it had been hunted to extinction in the wild. Some hunters thought the red wolves were coyotes（土狼）, so most people killed them because they believed wolves were dangerous and would attack people. This wrong belief has made it difficult to restore the species, because people are afraid to have red wolves reintroduced near human communities.Experts say that one way to fight these fears is simply to teach people about red wolves. In reality, they are shy animals that they dont get close to humans and hunt mostly at night. According to the Fish and Mildlife Service, captive breeding centers in the US are home to about 200 red wolves. But without continued efforts from the government and private groups, red wolves will continue to suffer.12. The underlined phrase put.on hold in Paragraph 2 probably means “ ”.A. paused B. promoted C. overlooked D. accomplished13. What does Defenders of Wildlife think of the Fish and Wildlife Services decision?A. Practical. B. Annoying. C. Satisfactory. D. Disappointing.14. The trouble in reintroducing red wolves near human communities lies in_ _.A. humans over-hunting B. fears in human beingsC. shortage of food in the wild D. lack of governmental support15. What can we know about red wolves from the text?A. They dont hunt in the daytime at all. B. Their total population in the world is only 50.C. They keep away from humans due to shyness. D. They are dangerous because they attack people.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。Bullyingis a problem in many schools.

The movie is about 43 (survive) and the choices we all make when one wants to survive, good or bad.With a story that should have been full of conflict and violence, it takes a different approach. You may find 44 (you) exposed to small pockets of action. While recent sci-fi movies have become 45 (know) for their action and scenes, War for the Planet of the Apes has taken science fiction 46 a thoughtful and intelligent direction.War for the Planet of the Apes may not be the action and monster film that you had in mind, 47 its the kind of film that will make you want to sit in silence in the theater for a few minutes after it ends, taking in 48 youve just witnessed.The few movies that have that effect 49 (be) usually about humans, but this film enables people 50 (feel) that way about apes. And that is what makes it a masterpiece.第三部分 写作（共两节，满分35分）第一节 短文改错（共10小题，每小题1分，满分10分）假定英语课上老师要求同桌之间交换修改作文，请你修改你同桌写的以下短文。短文中共有10处错误，每句中最多有两处。错误涉及一个单词的增加、删除或修改。增加：在缺词处加一个漏字符号（），并在此符号下面写出该加的词。删除：把多余的词用斜线（）划掉。修改：在错的词下划一横线，并在该词下面写出修改后的词。注意：1.每处错误及其修改均仅限一词； 2.只允许修改10处，多者（从第11处起）不计分。Last Monday, we hold a monitor election during our class meeting.
