a. 1896 b. 1915 c. 1916 d. 193725. which of the following statement is true? a. tolkiens father died of trench fever.b. tolkien wrote the new english dictionary himself.c. the lord of the rings was finished about half a year. d. tolkien began his writing career in the hospital.26. what is tolkiens “the lord of the rings” considered to be?

d ever since donald trump was elected the next president of the us, the entire trump family has been put under a microscope. in china, the spotlight has been mainly focused on trump and his daughter ivanka. she is described on wechat as an influential role model with stunning beauty, a successful career, and a happy family. she leads a dream life that a million girls would kill for. yes, she was born with a silver spoon in her mouth. but she got where she is by herself. theres always going to be articles that say people born into wealthy families are better looking and have a better family background than you, but these people do work harder than you. are you a loser if you were raised in an ordinary family? should you feel guilty that you sleep eight hours a day because ivanka sleeps five? if you just want to keep a stable nine-to-five job, does it mean you are not ambitious? how about if you dont work out or eat healthy, does that mean you will not find your mr. or miss right? there is a tendency in media nowadays to encourage elitism.they are trying to brainwash young people into thinking that they should invest an enormous amount of time and money in bodybuilding and appearance enhancement, even plastic surgery. they encourage lifestyle makeovers: wine tasting classes and expensive trips overseas. they make you believe that if you do as they say, you can improve the quality of your life and join the elites. but whats the downside of being mediocre? do you really need to go to the gym five days a week unless you are a gym maniac? do you need to take hundreds of selfies and photoshop the selected ones to post on wechat? do you really need to break your neck and sacrifice to earn your first pot of gold only to worry constantly about how to blend into high society later? dont let the idea of elitism get to you. everybody has a right to the life they want. human beings should not be judged as a success or failure based on whether they are a part of the elite or not. as long as you lead a happy and comfortable life, why bother to chase after other peoples shadows? choose your own life path and go for it.32. why do many persons focus the attention on ivanka? a. she assisted her father in winning the presidential election. b. she together with her family is put under careful investigation. c. she is a virtual role frequently seen among ordinary people. d. she gets what she has through personal efforts despite decent origin. 33. which of the following are considered as a life belonging to people of higher social rank? polish and post carefully selected selfies on wechat. break your neck to earn your first pot of gold. spare no effort to better physical appearance. sign up for wine tasting classes and oversea trips.a. b. c. d. 34. after we read the passage, we could infer that _. a. ivankas sleeping five hours a day makes the vast majority guilty. b. keeping a stable nine-to-five job will be thought of as a loser. c. being elites is believed by more and more people nowadays. d. improving the quality of life will promote ones social status. 35. which attitude towards life would the writer probably agree with? a. life is like a dogsled team. if you arent the lead dog, the scenery never changes. b. there is only one success-to be able to spend your life in your own way. c. life consists not in holding good cards but in playing those you hold well. d. the greatest lesson in life is to know that even fools are right sometimes. 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。when we think about the dreams we have, it is surprising to see how many people failed even if they could have succeeded. so today im going to tell you five ways to kill your dreams.believe in overnight success.everyone knows the story of a tech guy who built a mobile app and sold it for a lot of money. 36 if you investigate further, you will find that he is well educated and has been working on the project for 20 years. therefore, your overnight success is always a result of what youve done in your life. 37 constantly, people around you always have opinions on which path you should take. but whichever way you choose, there are other ways you have to pick as well. and one day you need to solve those problems yourself.decide to rest when success is guaranteed.when your life is going great and everything is set-time to rest. actually, when youre growing towards a peak, you need to work even harder and find yourself another peak. if you were content with what youve accomplished, it would stop you from a greater success. 38 believe the fault is someone elses.i constantly see people saying, “i created this great product, but the market is so bad.” if you have dreams, its your responsibility to make them happen. yes, the market may be bad. but if no one bought your product, surely there is something there that is your fault. 39 believe that the only things that matter are the dreams themselves.achieving a dream is a short moment, but your life is not. 40 and the only way to really achieve all of your dreams is to fully enjoy every step of your journey.a. when we face difficulties, believe in ourselves.b. the overnight success inspires so many people.c. the story may seem real, but i bet its incomplete.d. be responsible for your own dreams.e. life is never about the goals themselves.f. theres no time to settle down.g. believe someone else has the answers for you. 第三部分 完形填空（共20小题，每小题1分，满分20分）阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的a、b、c、d四个选项中选出可以填入空白的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。 i was sitting at the bar of a local restaurant having lunch and taking a rest. a fair girl who looked about twenty-five walked in and sat down in a booth(雅座) 41 for her mother. it didnt 42 long before i saw shewas trying to stay 43 and escape other peoples gazes and my heart sank. you could see her hair was 44 and, at such a young age, she was receiving chemo(化疗).i sat there watching her trying to remain composed(镇静的) and she was having a 45 time of it. i 46 for her, imagining what it must be like to go through this and yet i know some of her 47 . you see i 48 my wife, the love of my life just a f
