The tiny village in Michaelston-y-Fedw , with a population of 300, clubbed together after being unable to download films , stream music or connect to online banking.Farmers, teachers and even the village pub owners put in thousands of hours of volunteering to dig miles of trenches and now have superfast broadband（宽带）.The project cost around 250, 000 with villagers paying150,000 of their own money to secure their superfast connection speed. They were also able to obtain100，000 from EU funding and the Welsh Government Access Broadband Cymru scheme. The idea was produced in the local pub when villagers were complaining about their Wi-Fi connections. Ben Longman, owner of the Cefn Mably Arms, said, “We were in the pub and we were all complaining about how bad the Wi-Fi was. I had just paid for high speed broadband and realized it would not work .”One of the organizers , Carina Dunk , 61, said it was fantastic what the village had achieved. She said, “It used to take a few days to download a film ; now it takes less than a minute. Communities have tended to be more distant and separated but not here anymore. Sometimes we have to take a step back and achieve something .”A year after the project begun most of the 300 villagers are now united in a 1, 000mps broadband connection.However, Richard Raybould, 59, is still waiting for his house to be connected on the edge of the village and said he cannot wait. He said. It is amazing what skills people in the community have. There are experts and farmers who dig trenches. I have met at least 30 people who I had never spoken to before.”24.

Villagers volunteer to install superfast broadbandD. Villagers are suffering from bad Wi-Fi connections C As the Roman Empire expanded , its soldier went through the countryside and established Military camp , which were often the beginning of its towns and cities. Each town and city was laid out in a standard pattern: a square with streets In a grid（方格）pattern that intersected （交叉） at right angles. Oftentimes ，two major streets bisected（对半分）the town or city in a north-south, east-west direction and met in the center of a great square called a forum.The forum served as the economic and social center of the city. The majority of towns and cities had paved streets with large stones fitted together and used concrete as the main construction material. The grid pattern and the similarity of the street designs were necessary to enable soldiers to easily move to any point in a city to defend it .The Romans also built every city alongside a river or near a source of water. Most Roman cities had large piping systems used to bring in water and carry away waste. While most people bathed and got drinking water from public places , wealthier citizens had water piped directly into their homes .Urban life centered on a block that was surrounded by four streets . These blocks contained apartment buildings , called insulae , which stood several stories high. The blocks of insulae were the equivalent（相等的事物）of modern-day urban neighborhoods , and the majority of the common people-the plebeians - lived in them . An insulae lacked indoor water and waste pipes , so its locals had to carry their water from nearby wells and throw away their waste in various faraway places. A large type of home , known as a domus , was where wealthy individuals lived . They always lived in separate areas from the poorer citizens.Markets and businesses were established near insulae, so large cities had several commercial districts serving entire groups of blocks. However, the forum in each city was always the primary center of business and politics and was therefore constantly busy. In some cases , there was so much traffic in the busiest parts of the city that those areas became congested at certain times of the day. As a result, traffic could be limited in some areas.28. Whats the first paragraph mainly about ?A. The background of Roman expansion. B. The location and role of the Roman forum.C. The appearance of Roman towns and cities. D. The establishment of Roman military camps.29. Why were the streets in Rome designed in a similar way? A. To purposely form a pretty pattern. B. To conveniently equip piping systems.C. To easily defend the city in an emergency. D. To quickly bring in water and carry away waste.30. What do we know about an insulae?A. Its also known as a domus . B. Most common people lived there .C. It had indoor water and waste pipes . D. Markets and businesses were set up there .31. Which of the following can best replace congested underlined in the last paragraph ?A. Relaxing. B. Unfamiliar. C. Competitive. D. Overcrowded. D For students, college is a series of disconnected experiences : the classroom , the dorm, the athletic field, and the internship（实习岗位）. Yet what employers tell me gets college students hired is the ability to translate what they learned in one place (the classroom, for example) to another that is far different from where they originally learned a concept (a project on an internship).Educators call this “ transfer learning”- the ability to generalize key principles and apply them in many different places, which becomes more important as the skills needed to keep up in any job and occupation continue to change in the future. Our ability to drive almost any car on the market without reading its manual（手册）is an example of knowledge transfer.The concept sounds simple enough. But today s students, facing the constant pressure to prepare for standardized tests, rarely have the chance to learn through problem-solving or to be involved in projects that improve skills that can be used in multiple settings.In response to demands from students, parents and employers, colleges and universities are adding hands-on experiences to the undergraduate curriculum .Arizona State University, where I m a professor of practice, is testing a curriculum across a dozen majors in which students learn nearly half of the subject matter through group projects. Engineering students might build a robot and learn the key principles of mechanics and electronics during the project. The hope is that students will be more involved if theories from the classroom are immediately applied in the outside world instead of years after students graduate.What s the problem with the hands-on learning experiences being added by colleges to the undergraduate curriculum? They re often not accompanied by the guidance that students need to help them transfer what they learn . So students become adept(熟练的) in job interviews at describing what they did during a project, but they have difficulty talking about what they learned and how they can apply that to where they want to work .32. Why is the ability to drive mentioned in Paragraph 2?A. To show that everything is changing. B. To prove that driving ability is important.C. To stress the importance of practical skills. D. To explain the meaning of transfer learning.33. What prevents students from getting the ability to transfer knowledge?A. Their unwillingness to solve problems. B. Too much pressure from tests.C. Multiple school activities. D. Their lack of knowledge.34. Which may arouse students interest in school learning according to the author?A. Seeing what they have learned is applied.B. Teachers changing the way lectures are given.C. Focusing on the key principles of every subject.D. Teachers explaining theories in an interesting way .35. What does the author think of the hands-on learning experiences in colleges ?A. They are effective. B. They are unnecessary. C. They cost a lot of time. D. They should be improved .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。What are the benefits of volunteering abroad?Volunteering abroad is a mind-opening experience that exposes one to other cultures , languages and ways of life. 36 , the volunteer learns to appreciate the gifts of his home culture , as well as the benefits of the new. These volunteer opportunities often offer additional professional benefits , as well .The satisfaction of altruism（无私）Any volunteer job shows a sense of giving back . However, overseas volunteering can be truly meaningful in this area.People in foreign cultures understand that you might be giving up numerous creature comforts to help them out. 37_ . New language skillsOverseas volunteers may not only learn a new language during their stay , they may also come to appreciate their native tongue all the more. Totally being involved in the culture will require at least a conversational grasp of the language. Often, English speakers are called upon to teach English as a second language, which requires relearning oft-forgotten rules of grammar and usage. 38 . Better mannersIf the expression “ ugly American” rings a bell , know that overseas volunteering is an excellent cure for that particular problem . 39 . The lessons may lead to the volunteers thinking twice about how their behavior appears to others in daily life .40 Going to a foreign country for a volunteer experience is a huge boost（帮助） on a resume. Employers love to see a person that can think outside the box and work past their comfort zone . The added benefits of teamwork , foreign language knowledge , and obvious old-fashioned hard work also add polish to the volunteer candidate. Since business now happens globally, the volunteer is armed with useful , and potentially actionable , information .A. Professional benefitsB. An expanded appreciation of different traditionsC. By experiencing day-to-day existence in an area of needD. Because of this , the act of giving is even more touching and deepE. This repeated education can lead to better English skills in the long runF. Volunteers may taste fruits , plants and meats theyve never experienced beforeG.Volunteers receive a thorough education about movement, gestures and conversation第三部分英语知识运用（共两节，满分45分） 第一节完形填空（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四个选项（A、B、C、和D）中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 Last year, I received an e-mail from my dad, under a subject line: Mystery creature?” There no body text, but 41 was a ten-second video, shot in the dead of nightIt 42 a furry creature charging away from the camera and down driveway.
