BWhen Veronika Scott was a student at the College for Creative Studies in Detroit, Michigan, she received a task to “design to fill a need.” She dreamed up an idea for overcoats that would double as sleeping bags, made 25 of them, and handed them out to people living in shelters on an abandoned city playground. While her efforts were greeted mostly with enthusiasm from those braving Detroits cold winters, one woman voiced dissatisfaction. “We dont need coats; we need jobs,” she told Veronika. Then she had her second inspiration.After graduating from college in 2012, Veronika founded the Empowerment Plan, a nonprofit organization. She hired two homeless women to sew the coats and paid them with donations she received through her blog. Now, the Empowerment Plan employs about 20 people and has produced more than 10,000 coats and distributed them in 30 states, Canada, and elsewhere abroad.“We dont require previous employment,” Veronika says. “Were looking for people who are motivated.” The Empowerment Plan provides free classes and lends money to those who qualify. Nearly all the employees eventually move into permanent housing, and some go on to jobs in the auto industry and construction.Veronika has bettered the coats design by making its outer layer of a lightweight material that resists air, wind, and water and its inner layer of a material that stores body heat. Still, Veronika is less focused on the coats than on the workers who make them. “At the end of the day,” she says, “the coat is a vehicle for us to employ people.”24. What was Veronikas second inspiration? A. Improving her coats design.B. Founding a nonprofit organization. C. Profiting from the work of those low-paid people. D. Producing more coats and distributing them abroad. 25. What is the purpose of the Empowerment Plan? A. To raise more donations.B. To design better clothes.C. To provide help for the homeless. D. To offer free classes to the motivated.26. Which of the following best describes Veronika? A. Traditional but helpful B. Greedy and unsatisfied. C. Generous but childish. D. Creative and caring.27. Which is the best title of the passage? A. Design to Fill a Need. B. The Empowerment Plan.C. Look for Motivated People.D. How to design a coat.C The world is filled with smart, talented, educated and gifted people. We meet them every day. A few days ago, my car was not running well. I pulled it into a garage and the young mechanic had it fixed in just a few minutes. He knew what was wrong by simply listening to the engine. I was amazed. The sad truth is that great talent is not enough I am constantly shocked at how little talented people earn. I heard the other day that less than 5 percent of Americans earn more than $100,000 a year. A business consultant who specializes in the medical trade was telling me how many doctors and dentists struggle financially. It was this business consultant who gave me the phrase, “They are one skill away from great wealth” There is an old saying that goes, Job means just over broke（破产）And unfortunately, I would say that the saying applies to millions of peopleBecause schools do not think financial intelligence is intelligence, most workers live within their meansThey work and they pay the billsInstead I recommend to young people to seek work for what they will learn, more than what they will earn When I ask the classes I teach, “How many of you can cook a better hamburger than McDonalds?” ,almost all the students raise their hands. I then ask, “So if most of you can cook a better hamburger, how come McDonalds makes more money than you?” The answer is obvious: McDonalds is excellent at business systems. The world is filled with talented poor people. They focus on perfecting their skills at building a better hamburger rather than the skills of selling and delivering the hamburger. 28.The author mentions the mechanic in the first paragraph to show that_A. he is just one of the talented people B. he is ready to help othersC. he has a sharp sense of hearing D. he knows little about car repairing29.The underlined part in the third paragraph can be best replaced by_A. spend more than they can afford B. do in their own wayC. live in their own circle D. live within what they earn30.Why do talented people earn so little according to the author?AThey dont work hard enough BThey lack financial intelligenceCThey dont make full use of their talents DThey have no specialized skills31.The main purpose of the author is to tell us _Ahow young people can find a satisfactory job Bwhat schools should teach about financeCwhy so many talented people are poor Dhow McDonalds makes much moneyDHere is an astonishing and significant fact：Mental work alone cant make us tired. It sounds absurd. But a few years ago, scientists tried to find out how long the human brain could labor without reaching a stage of fatigue (疲劳). To the amazement of these scientists，they discovered that blood passing through the brain，when it is active，shows no fatigue at all! If we took a drop of blood from a day laborer, we would find it full of fatigue toxins(毒素) and fatigue products. But if we took blood from the brain of an Albert Einstein，it would show no fatigue toxins at the end of the day.So far as the brain is concerned，it can work as well and swiftly at the end of eight or even twelve hours of effort as at the beginning. The brain is totally tireless. So what makes us tired?Some scientists declare that most of our fatigue comes from our mental and emotional(情感的) attitudes. One of Englands most outstanding scientists，J.A. Hadfield, says，“The greater part of the fatigue from which we suffer is of mental origin. In fact, fatigue of purely physical origin is rare.” Dr. Brill, a famous American scientist, goes even further. He declares, “One hundred percent of the fatigue of a sitting worker in good health is due to emotional problems.”What kinds of emotions make sitting workers tired? Joy? Satisfaction? No! A feeling of being bored, anger, anxiety, tenseness, worry, a feeling of not being appreciatedthose are the emotions that tire sitting workers. Hard work by itself seldom causes fatigue. We get tired because our emotions produce nervousness in the body.32. What surprised the scientists a few years ago?A. Fatigue toxins could hardly be found in a laborers blood.B. Albert Einstein didnt feel worn out after a days work.C. A mental workers blood was filled with fatigueD. The brain could work for many hours without fatigue toxins.33. According to the author, which of the following can make sitting workers tired?A. Challenging mental work. B. Endless tasks.C. Unpleasant emotions.D. Physical labor.34. Whats the authors attitude towards the scientists ideas?A. He doubts them B. He agrees with them.C. He argues against them.D. He hesitates to accept them.35. We can infer from the passage that in order to stay energetic, sitting workers need to _.A. have some good foodB. exercise regularlyC. enjoy their workD. discover fatigue toxins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。Four simple ways to stay positiveTrying to stay positive, both in good times and bad, is a great way to improve your quality of life. Try these four methods on a daily basis.1. Dont think a lot about negativity.Staying positive 24 hours a day, seven days a week is a bit difficult. Letting things get to you is normal, and its actually healthy to cry or express frustrations once in a while.Its when those negative moments control your life that your emotional balance is at risk. 36 However, dont give that sadness another second in your day.2. 37 What you put into your body directly affects how you feel on the outside. Fill yourself with good, healthy foods like fruits and vegetables and limit snacking. Exercise is equally of great importance. Take a few days out of your week for at least half an hour of activity, and try to stick to it. 38 3. Be kind to others.39 Making someones day a bit brighter not only puts a smile on his or her face, but also yours as well. Remember to smile and treat each person with pity and respect. Good deeds are contagious（传染的）, and your positive attitude may spread among others. 4. Take it one day at a time.Being positive isnt an instant thing. Its a steady effort that we follow every hour of every day. 40 Instead, focus on living at the moment and doing what you can to make each moment better.A. Eat healthily and stay fit.B. Take your lunch breaks outside.C. Dont worry about what the future may bring.D. Gratefulness helps you appreciate life in bad times.E. Good feelings come from acts of kindness and selflessness.F. Take a few minutes to feel sad and accept what happened.G. Even going outside for a walk and enjoying the sunshine improves your mood.第三部分：语言运用（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A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。I got up at 4 am to receive a call from my daughter who needed my help to get home from the snowy mountain.
