D. $60B Like many new graduates, I left university full of hope for the future but with no real idea of what I wanted to do. My degree, with honors, in English literature had not really prepared me for anything practical. I knew I wanted to make a difference in the world somehow, but I had no idea how to do that. Thats when I learned about the Lighthouse Project. I started my journey as a Lighthouse Project volunteer by reading as much as I could about the experiences of previous volunteers. I knew it would be a lot of hard work, and that I would be away from my family and friends for a very long time. In short, I did not take my decision to apply for the Lighthouse Project lightly. Neither did my family. Eventually, however, I won the support of my family, and I sent in all the paperwork needed for the application. After countless interviews and presentations, I managed to stand out among the candidates(候选人) and survive the test alone. Several months later, I finally received a call asking me to report for the duty. I would be going to a small village near Abuja, Nigeria. Where? What? Nigeria? I had no idea. But I was about to find out. After pleting my training, I was sent to the village that was small and desperately in need of proper acmodation. Though the local villagers were poor, they offered their homes, hearts, and food as if I were their own family. I was asked to lead a small team of local people in building a new schoolhouse. For the next year or so, I taught in that same schoolhouse. But I sometimes think I learned more from my students than they did from me. Sometime during that period, I realized that all those things that had seemed so strange or unusual to me no longer did, though I did not get anywhere with the local language, and returned to the United States a different man. The Lighthouse Project had changed my life forever.24. What do we know about the author in Paragraph 1? A. His college degree focused on something not so practical. B. His dream at university was to bee a volunteer. C. He took pride in having contributed to the world. D. He didnt like English literature.25. According to Paragraph 2, it is most likely that the author_. A. didnt tell his family about his decision B. asked previous volunteers about voluntary work C. attended special training to perform difficult tasks D. felt sad about having to leave his family and friends26. In his application for the volunteer job, the author_. A. went through challenging survival tests B. participated in many interviews C. wrote quite a few papers on voluntary work D. faced strong petition from other candidates27. What can we infer from the authors experiences in Nigeria? A. He had learned to municate in the local language. B. He found some difficulty adapting to the local culture. C. He had overe all his weaknesses before he left for home. D. He was chosen as the most respectable teacher by his students. C Self-driving vehicles will rely on cameras, sensors(传感器) and artificial intelligence (AI) to recognize and respond to road and traffic conditions, but sensing is the most effective for objects and movement in the neighborhood of the vehicle. Not everything important in a cars environment will be caught by the vehicles camera. Another vehicle approaching at high speed on a collision (碰撞) track might not be visible until its too late. This is why vehicle-to-vehicle munication is undergoing rapid development. Our research shows that cars will need to be able to chat and cooperate on the road, although the technical challenges are considerable. Applications for vehicle-to-vehicle munication range from vehicles driving together in a row, to safety messages about nearby emergency vehicles. Vehicles could alert each other to avoid collisions or share notices about passers-by and bicycles. From as far as several hundred metres away, vehicles could exchange messages with one another or receive information from roadside units（RSUs）about nearby incidents or dangerous road conditions through 4G network. A high level of AI seems required for such vehicles, not only to self-drive from A to B, but also to react intelligently to messages received. Vehicles will need to plan, reason, strategize(制定策略) and adapt in the light of information received in real time and to carry out cooperative behaviours. For example, a group of autonomous vehicles might avoid a route together because of potential risks, or a vehicle could decide to drop someone off earlier due to messages received, a foreseen crowding ahead. Further applications of vehicle-to-vehicle munication are still being researched, including how to perform cooperative behaviour.28. What is the first paragraph mainly about? A. The reasons for the accidents by self-driving vehicles. B. The importance of artificial intelligence of self-driving vehicles. C. The reasons for developing munication between self-driving vehicles. D. The research about applications for self-driving vehicles.29. What does the underlined word “alert” mean in Paragraph 2? A. Alarm. B. Blame. C. Ignore. D. Govern.30. What can we learn about roadside units (RSUs)? A. They recognize the vehicles on the road. B. They can improve bad road conditions. C. They take control of the passing vehicles. D. They serve as efficient information stations.31. What is the main idea of the text? A. Different kinds of vehicle munication. B. Importance of high level AI. C. Vehicle-to-vehicle munication. D. Ways to improve our munication with vehicles.DThe American self-image is spread with the golden glow of opportunity. We think of the United States as a land of unlimited possibility, not so much a classless society but as a place where class is mutable(可变的) - a place where brains, energy and ambition are what count, not the environment of ones birth. However, we are not who we think we are.The Economic Mobility Project, an ambitious research led by Pew Charitable Trusts, looked at the economic fortunes of a large group of families over time, paring the ine of parents in the late 1960s with the ine of their children in the late 1990s and early xxs. Here is the finding: The “rags to riches” story is much more mon in Hollywood than on Main Street. Only 6 percent of children born to parents with family ine at the very bottom move to the top.That is right, just 6 percent of children born to parents who ranked in the bottom of the study sample, in terms of ine, were able to bootstrap their way into the top. Meanwhile, an incredible 42 percent of children born into that lowest are still stuck at the bottom, having been unable to climb a single rung of the ine ladder.It is noted that even in Britain - a nation we think of as burdened with a hidebound(顽固的，死板的) class system(阶层体系) - children who are born poor have a better chance of moving up. When the studies were released, most reporters focused on the finding that African-Americans born to middle-class or upper middle-class families are earning slightly less, in inflation-adjusted(扣除通胀后的) dollars, than did their parents.One of the studies indicates, in fact, that most of the financial gains white families have made in the past three decades can be attributed to(归功于) the entry of white women into the labor force. This is much less true for African-Americans.The picture that emerges is of a nation in which, overall, “the current generation of adults is better off than the previous one”, as one of the studies notes.The median(中值的) ine of the families in the sample group was $55,600 in the late 1960s; their childrens median family ine was measured at $71,900. However, this rising tide has not lifted all boats equally. The rich have seen far greater ine gains than have the poor.Even more troubling is that our nation of America as the land of opportunity gets little support from the data. Americans move fairly easily up and down the middle rungs(横档) of the ladder, but there is “stickiness at the ends” - four out of ten children who are born poor will remain poor, and four out of ten who are born rich will stay rich.32. What did the Economic Mobility Project find in its research? A. Children from low-ine families are unable to move up to the top. B. Hollywood actors and actresses can get rich easily. C. The rags to riches story is more fiction than reality. D. The rags to riches story is only true for a small minority of whites.33. According to the passage, the author probably agrees that America should_. A. perfect its self-image as a land of opportunity B. have a lower level of upward mobility than Britain C. enable African-Americans to earn more than whites D. encourage the current generation to work harder than their parents34. Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage? A. The US is a land where brains, energy and ambition are what count B. Inequality remains between whites and blacks in financial gains. C. Middle-class families earn slightly less with inflation considered. D. Children in lowest-ine families manage to climb a single rung of the ladder.35. What might be the best title for this passage? A. Social Upward Mobility. B. Incredible Ine Gains. C. Inequality in Wealth. D. America Not Land of Opportunity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。 Do you struggle to say no? If you cant ever say no to anybody, then your relationships are not healthy._36_. Imagine that you are a confident person who marries a very aggressive person.
