The Crucible 23.The authors purpose of writing the passage is to _ .A. persuade B. entertain C. informD. describe BSeveral years ago, most young Britons wanted a career in law, to be a doctor, or , if they were creative enough, to take up singing. But today, things stand differently.According to a survey by Tesco Mobile, a UK teles pany, the “dream job” of young people aged between 16 and 25 in the UK is a video blogger, or “vlogger”. The survey, carried out among 1,002 people, found that as much as 40 percent of them put vlogger as their number one choice on a list of ideal careers. The single factor contributing to this change is undoubtedly the internet and social media. They have made it so much easier to reach a global audience, without having to enter a career in show business in the traditional way.“In years that have gone by, the biggest stars were remended and trained by the Hollywood studios; now, anyone with a puter camera can bee an idol,” a Tesco Mobile spokesperson said in a news release. “From fashion to edy, these self-made stars document their hobbies to an adoring fan-base. Vloggers are the big stars of today because they are normal people interacting with their fans about everyday life.”However, what people see is only the bright side of being a vlogger and they ignore the fact that only those who are successful gain fame and fortune. For every success there are a hundred others who never get off the starting block. There are the dreams that e true and the dreams that are destined to remain dreams.This is why despite the popularity of vloggers, some young people chose to follow careers that dont necessarily earn them fame, but allow them to make good use of the internet to share their hobbies. Young Israeli David Leshaw, for example, runs a business called the Finishers Club. Its an online platform for runners to keep a record of their races. He told the career website Zippia that his job allows him to express his passion, and is always a learning experience. And thats enough for him.24Why do so many young Britons choose to be vloggers?ABecause being vloggers is an ideal career.BBecause vloggers can bee idols easily.CBecause being vloggers is popular nowadays.DBecause vloggers are bound to be rich and famous25What does the underlined sentence in Paragraph 4 mean?AMost vloggers can achieve their dreamsBOne should realize the dreams one by one.CVloggers who are successful can gain fame and fortuneDNot all the vloggers have acplished the dreams26The example of Israeli David Leshaw in the last paragraph serves to .Acall on young people not to be vloggers Bexplain the popularity of vloggers Chelp readers take a correct attitudeDstate the advantages of his career27What is the authors attitude toward being vloggers?AObjectiveBCritical CPositive DNegative CCareer criminals begin their antisocial behavior during their toddler (学步的儿童) years and may go on with a life of crime if their behavior isnt challenged, scientists have discovered. While most children grow out of their bad behavior by adulthood, a study found those who had “callous unemotional characteristics” could grow up to have problems with the law later in life. Behavior characteristics such as a lack of sympathy and lying in childhood could have an impact years on.Luke Hyde, assistant professor of psychology at the University of Michigan, said, “These are signs for parents and doctors to watch out for, as they may signal more than just the terrible twos.” He said, “Parents both take care of their child and provide their childs genes so its been difficult to know if were seeing that parenting causes callous unemotional behaviors, or if it is just a sign of the genes being passed to the child.”The research also discovered that strict parenting is linked to the development of antisocial behavior. Scientists looked at 561 families in an adoption study that examined biological mothers antisocial behavior. The scientists found children of antisocial mothers were also more likely to exhibit the same behavior characteristics, despite having limited or no touch with them as they were adopted as babies.“The really exciting take-home message from this study is that small, day-to-day positive interactions that parents have with their young children can make a huge difference in childrens development, said Leslie Leve, a professor at the University of Oregon who co-led the data collection.“Even when children have inherited a very challenging set of behaviors, hearing good job or receiving encouragement can help protect them from developing serious problems ing from their inherited difficulties,” he added. The study, worked on by scientists from the University of Michigan, Penn State University and the University of Oregon has been published in the American Journal of Psychiatry. Researchers will follow the group of children through early adolescence to determine if these behaviors still continue to exist from the toddler years.28 Whats the main idea of the passage?A. Kids social behaviors are related to crime.B. Antisocial behaviors of kids could be on their way to a life of crime.C. Criminals begin their crimes during adolescence.D. Warmhearted kids are more likely to be criminals in the future.29.What conclusion might the scientists draw from the study?A. Antisocial behaviors have nothing to do with crimes.B. The genes decide kids antisocial behaviors.C. Antisocial behaviors might be inherited.D. Adopted babies surely have antisocial behaviors when they grow up.30.What can be inferred from the passage?A. Parenting is the main reason that causes kids antisocial behaviors.B. What causes career criminals to begin their crimes is their parents characteristics.C. Inherited antisocial behaviors of kids can be lightened by positive parenting.D. Leslie Leve has a doubtful attitude to adoptive mothers active interactions with kids.31.Why will researchers track kids process of growing?A. To make sure if kids behaviors will last.B. To make sure if praise will change kids.C. To determine if kids behaviors will be inherited.D. To determine if parents fort will protect kids.DNobel laureate C N.

This is because they have access to medical care and better nutrition in zoos. Moreover, there is a lack of predators(捕食者). 36 Elderly wild animals lose their strength, ability to find and digest food and often lose their social standing in their species social structure. Zoos are learning how to care for old animals.Boredom is a big problem for animals in zoos and something animals in the wild do not have to face. Animal experts believe that a small place produces boredom. 37 They also provide panions and hide pieces of food so the animals have to search for it as in the wild.38 A case in point is the Asiatic wild horse. The species was hunted to extinction in the wild by 1969. The entire world population now lives in zoos and nature preserves. The largest population is kept at the National Zoo in Washington. D.C. All of those animals were zoo-born.Animals living in the wild may e into contact with people. The animals may hunt livestock(家畜)or eat farmers crops. 39 In good zoos, people can see that these animals are not just able to make trouble, but lead plex lives. This can help people save the animal and the habitat needed to keep the animal alive in the wild.Animals often reproduce better when they are in the wild. 40 One of the remarkable examples is the female giant panda. Using artificial(人工的) means has helped raise the worldwide panda population. Also, by trying to recreate the animals natural living condition as mush as possible, zoo animals will breed. ASo good zoos have replaced all metal cages for those animals that used to live in large areas.BFor some species, living in zoos is the only way the species can survive.CThe goals of zoos have changed.DHowever, some animals are an exceptionEAs a result, they are considered harmful and are hunted.FIf they live in the wild, they have to battle against them.GEven so, it often leaves one to wonder if the animals live well.第三部 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，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。The days ticked down to my 47th birthday this year.
