I was a 30-year-old lawyer in New York. But being a lawyer was never my dream or goal in life. I honestly wanted to be a writer. I have a great imagination and would write amazing stories in my head. But I always knew that being a writer was never possible for me because it was a better financial decision to stay a lawyer.Recently, I couldnt fall asleep at my usual time of 10 p. m. and when I did fall asleep I had the same dream over and over again. The dream starts with me in the ocean trying to go for a swim and Im searching for something, but I start to drown and have no control over my body. Then a light shines through the waters and when I look up all I can see is myself in a bright white room writing a novel. Then I hear a voice say repeatedly, “Now is the time to try something new!”It wasnt just a dream; it was my opportunity to make something good out of my life. That afternoon, I quit my job at the law firm and I couldnt have been any happier. My life started at 30, and every day since that point I havent stopped enjoying life. I started to write and have been on the best-sellers list for the last two months. Things have definitely turned around.Change is a good thing; it gives us an opportunity to take a chance. So my two favorite words I live by and so should you are “change and chance”.24. From the first paragraph, we can know that _.A. the author is now 30 years old B.

The second paragraph mainly talks about the authors _.A. difficulty in sleeping at night.

The best title of the text might be _.A. Lawyer or Writer B. Change and Chance C. Change and Regret D.

Soon that may change with green power.Three Chilean students got the idea for a plant-powered device(装置) to charge their cellphones, while sitting in their schools outdoor courtyard during a break from exams, with dead mobile phones. Then, one of them had an aha moment.“It occurred to Camila to say about plants,” said inventor Evelyn Aravena, “Why dont you have a socket, if there are so many plants? After that, we thought, why dont they have a charging outlet? Because there are so many plants and living things that have the potential to produce energy, why not?”Their inventiona small biological circuit called E-Kaiauses the energy plants to produce during photosynthesis(光合作用). A plant uses only a small part of that energy and the rest goes into the soil, and thats where the E-Kaia collects it. The device plugs into the ground and then into your phone.Its the most amazing project Ive ever seen in my life, plain and simple. They brought this original model, and it worked and thats when it all changed, at least from my personal point of view and I began to support them. said Mauricio Cifuentes.The device solved two problems for the engineering students they needed an idea for a class project, and an outlet to plug in their phones.Looking for a place to charge the notebook, which had no power, and the mobile phones, we werent able to find anything because all the other students were in the same state of madness trying to find a place to charge their devices, said Aravena.But plants are everywhere, and the biocircuit makes the best of their excess(过多的) power.The E-Kaia doesnt carry much charge but its powerful enough to completely recharge a mobile phone in less than two hours.The student inventors have applied for patents on their technology, and expect the E-Kaia to go on sale soon.28. How could the students get the green power idea?A. By carrying out an experiment.B. Just from an occasional thought.C. With the support of their professors.D. Inspired by the information in a science book.29. The device collects power by using _.A. photosynthesis B. a small biological circuitC. energy plants D. the electricity stored in the device30. What can we learn from what Mauricio Cifuentes said?A. He intended to buy the patent.B. He invented the original device.C. He showed great interest in the device.D. He attempted to produce the device in large numbers.31. What might be the best title for the passage?A. A New Device to Change the WorldB. Green Power - A New and Potential SourceC. Chilean Students Find A Green Way to Charge PhonesD. A New Device Invented by Chilean Students Will Be on SaleDEudaimonia is an Ancient Greek word, particularly stressed by the philosophers Plato and Aristotle, which deserves far more attention than it has because it corrects the shortfalls (缺失）in one of the most central, but troubling words in our modem language: happiness.When we nowadays try to clearly express the purpose of our lives，it is the word “happiness” that we commonly turn to. We tell ourselves and others that the most important principle for our jobs, our relationships and the conduct of our day-to-day lives is the pursuit of happiness. It sounds like an innocent enough idea, but too much reliance on the term means that we frequently unfairly tend to quit or, at least, heavily question a great many challenging but worthwhile situations. The Ancient Greeks did not believe that the purpose of life was to be happy; they proposed that it was to achieve Eudaimonia, a word which has been best translated as “fulfilment”.What distinguishes happiness from fulfilment is pain. It is very possible to be fulfilled andat the same timeunder pressure, suffering physically or mentally, overburdened and, quite frequently, in an irritable (易怒的）mood. This is a slight psychological difference that is hard for the word “happiness” to capture, for its tricky to speak of being happy yet unhappy, or happy yet suffering. However, such a combination is readily accommodated within the respected and noble-sounding idea of Eudaimonia.The word encourages us to trust that many of lifes most worthwhile projects will sometimes be in conflict with contentment, and yet will be worth pursuing. Properly exploring our professional talents, managing a household, keeping a relationship going, creating a new business venture or engaging in politics. none of these goals are likely to leave us cheerful and grinning on a daily basis. They will, in fact, involve us in all manner of challenges that will deeply exhaust and weaken us, provoke (激怒）and wound us. And yet we will perhaps, at the end of our lives, still feel that the tasks were worth undertaking. Through them, well have achieved something deeper and more interesting than happiness.With the word Eudaimonia in mind, we can stop imagining that we are aiming for a pain-free existenceand then blaming ourselves unfairly for being in a bad mood. Well know that we are trying to do something far more important than smile all the time: were striving to do justice to our full human potential.32.What do we know about “Eudaimonia” from the passage?A. It was first created by two Greek philosophers.B. It has received a lot of attention from the public.C. It still has some shortfalls that need to be corrected.D. It was regarded as the purpose of life in ancient Greece.33.According to Paragraph 3, happiness .A. is the opposite of fulfillmentB. is free from physical or mental painC. stresses the psychological differenceD. serves as a respected and noble life goal34. We can learn from the passage that .A. aiming for happiness may lead to wrong self-blamingB. goals that wound and weaken us result in happinessC. challenges leading to contentment are worth undertakingD. feeling fulfilled means we should avoid tough situations35.The passage encourages the readers to .A. find fulfillment with all efforts B. seek for a pain-free existenceC. keep optimistic whatever happens D. balance happiness and suffering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。Radar is an electronic device that detects planes, ships, coastlines, landmarks, and even storm clouds. The name radar comes from the first letters of the words radio direction and ranging. As the human eye uses light waves to see, radar “sees” with radio waves. Without radar, planes could not land safely in bad weather and ships could not move safely in thick fog. _51_In the 1800s it was discovered that radio waves could be reflected from objects. But scientists did not make great advances in radar research until the 1930s, when the world was threatened by war. _52_ It has been used widely in almost every conflict since then.Echoes make it possible for radar to work. When a beam of radio waves is sent out, it strikes on an object and returns an echo. This echo is picked up by radar and recorded on a screen similar to television screen. On the screen an observer sees a flash, or a blip, that shows the direction and distance of the object. _53_Airport control towers use radar to guide planes in for safe landings. Almost all large ships depend on radar to prevent collisions with icebergs or other ships. _54_ Weather forecasters “see” the size, direction, and speed of storms on radar screens. Astronomers can even use radar to measure accurately the distance to the moon. Thus, the device has generated major advancements._55_Huge radar antennas have been installed all over the United States. They guard us against possible enemy attacks. We have ballisticmissiles (战略导弹)warning systems that can alert us to attacks when missiles are more than 1,000 miles away. Other radar systems warn us against enemy aircraft and even spying space satellites.A.Police track speeders in radar-equipped cars.B.These measurements are now highly accurate.C.The device can be used in a wide range of fields.D.It is therefore especially valuable to shippers and travelers.E.During World War II many countries used radar effectively.F.Today radar is used by commercial airliners and weather forecasters.G.Strengthening national defense is one of radars most important functions.第三部分 语言知识运用（共两节，满分45分）第一节 （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。I had just started my second year studying at Cambridge University when I was faced with the news I had never expected.
