I quickly became depressed (抑郁的) and angry at myself for not being able to do better in school, in addition to lack (缺少) of friends due to poor social and communication skills. This went on for months until my 19th birthday. My parents sent me a great cake. But I absolutely had no one to share it. I threw out the cake after having one piece, with about 90% of it leftover. That night I was depressed, so I decided to go outside to the freezing temperature of the winter and run. I put my earphones in and ran about 2 miles at 11p.m. on my birthday.When I got back inside, I was proud of what I was able to do. The next night I did the same. I wasnt quick or fit, but I went outside and did something. The running continued for 2 months until I finally had courage to go to the gym, where I started swimming, as I used to do in high school. A month went by, and I started lifting weight and continually running.Looking back, I can see that exercise helped cure (治愈) my depression, but it didnt only do that. At the gym, I met new friends and back at my dorm, I grew confident to play Super Smash Brothers with my classmates.Now, I exercise for one hour and a half every day and look forward to that. I get daily to do what I love with people who love it as well. I hope this helps someone who may be or have been in a similar situation.24. What made the author decide to run at night? A.

To share his experience of dealing with hardship.C Sir James Paul McCartney is an English singer, songwriter, multi-instrumentalist, and composer (作曲家). He gained worldwide fame as the bass guitarist and singer for the rock band the Beatles. However, its not just the words and music of his songs that Paul uses to express his feelings about things that are really important to him, but he has also closely taken part in getting together an exciting book for children. He has been working with illustrator (插画师) Geoff Dunbar and writer Philip Ardagh to find a way to put words and pictures into a story about animal protection. The result is a story with an important message contained in a beautiful book. Geoff drew every one of the books 84 illustrations and Philip made Paul and Geoffs ideas come together in a very entertaining way that all children will enjoy reading. Three lucky readers of The Newspaper Today won the chance to interview Paul about High in the Clouds. One day in Pauls office, Alex, Myles and Jessica wasted no time in asking Paul, Geoff and Philip how the idea for the story came about. Paul explained that he had been interested in animal rights for as long as he could remember. Seeing the Walt Disney film of Bambi, whose mother is shot by hunters, had a big effect on him as a child and made him think that hunting wasnt cool.Paul said they didnt want to tell people what to do in the book. They just wanted to get across the importance about animal protection.28. How does Paul express his feeling apart from the words and music of his songs? A. By doing what he can to inspire people.B. By writing a book about children. C. By illustrating an exciting book about animals.D. By joining in getting together a childrens book.29.

A. make. clear.B. realize.C. ignore.D. pay attention to.D What could homes of the future be like? No one knows exactly. But preparations are made for the worlds first freeform 3D-printed house.Experts will build a house called Curve Appeal, which will be 3D-printed off-site before being put together on-site to create two outside walls, a roof and an inside part. These four main parts will then be joined together.Although 3D-printed buildings have been made before, this home -to be built in Chattanooga, Tennessee, later this year - will be the first of its kind, as it will contain no regular shapes or angles. The house is the creation of the design company WATG, based in London and California. The design for Curve Appeal draws inspiration from the Case Study House program.The architects (建筑师) leading the program were famous for trying to create open-plan space that adds natural light. In a written statement, a spokesman for WATG said, “Using many of the same modern design principles, Curve Appeal is the next developing step. Its important that the buildings and the environment work together harmoniously. The chosen site for Curve Appeal is steps away from the Tennessee River in a beautiful wooded, sunlit area.”WATG was awarded the first prize in the Freeform House Design Challenge in 2016 and given prize money of $8,000 to make its plans a reality. The competition was designed for architects, designers, engineers and artists. Competitors were challenged to design a 600 to 800-sq ft single-family home that rethinks traditional aesthetics (美学), construction, building systems and structure.Over the last year, WATGs Chicago office has been developing their design with Branch Technology. This project will be completed later this year. Once completed, the Curve Appeal home will have open and light-filled inside living space.32. What can we know about Curve Appeal from the passage? A.

It offers competitors inspiration when necessary. D. It helps put creative ideas into practice.35. Whats the passage mainly about? A. The design of homes in future.B. The Freeform House Design Challenge. C. The worlds first freeform 3D-printed house.D. The development of 3Ds printing in architecture.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。To communicate with foreigners, it is important to know their social customs. 36 . Or you may hurt the feelings of the other party without actually intending to do so. Here are some general tips.l 37 , dont hesitate to ask. Some Japanese seem to feel that it is impolite to ask back even when they dont quite understand. However, its much better to say that you dont understand than to pretend you understand and answer very unclearly. When you dont understand, you may say, “Im afraid I dont understand you. Would you mind saying it again?”l Always answer when you are asked a question. Westerners consider it very rude if a question is not answered. They think it is rude to ignore a question. 38 . So many Japanese only laugh nervously without saying anything when they are spoken to. This comes from embarrassment, but nothing is more unpleasant for Westerners.l Speak out what you think. Westerners express their opinions freely. 39 . They dont mind hearing views that differ from their own. You may express frankly what you think or feel, of course, but you mustnt be rude in your manner of speech.l 40 .The English use of “Yes” and “No” is the same as in Japanese in affirmative (肯定的)questions, but in negative questions the use is opposite.

It is the same with the Japanese D. Be sure to give your different opinionsE. It is surprising to find Japanese are differentF. This is especially true when carrying on a conversationG. They feel it is natural for people to have different ideas第三部分 英语知识运用 (共两节，满分45分)第1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、D）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。My first lesson was at a meeting.
