All shes ever wanted to do is to become an elementary school teacher. However, Hipp has racked up(累计) $100,000 (about 0.67 million yuan) in student loan debt and isnt able to earn enough through working as a part-time skating instructor and restaurant server tolive anywhere other than home.To some degree, multigenerational households have always been a part of American life. However, the number of adults who have been moving back in with their parents or never leaving home in the first place has been growing steadily.The Pew Research Center recently reported that 2016 was a milestone in the evolving living arrangements of young adults in the US. Until 2016, the most common living arrangement for young adults was to be living in their own property as part of a couple. UBS Financial Services, a Swiss global financial services company, released a report that even suggests one reason for the growing number of young adults still living at home could be that their family doesnt want them to leave. The report shows that 74 percent of millennials(千禧一代) get some kind of financial support from their parents after college. Millennials see their parents as peers, friends and mentors(导师). In return, their parents happily provide financial support well into adulthood, helping fund everything for them. Stuart Hoffman, chief economist for the PNC Financial Group in the US, said “Although job growth for millennials since 2014 has improved, that doesnt necessarily mean that millennials are starting to fly the nest, he said. “They may like living at home and being able to save money.”He added, “While it has held back household formation and purchases on things, they are probably traveling more and eating out more. I dont know if it represents a change in moral values, its much more common for adult children to live in their parents homes because its becoming part of the culture.”1.Whats the purpose of Caitlin Hipps story?A.

It isnt necessary for millennials to leave the nest.B. They can spend less money on their daily life.C. Moral values are changing gradually.D. Young adults are living in a different life style.4.Whats the main idea of the passage?A. Why is the number of the millennial growing steadily?B. Why has the percentage of adults living with their parents been on the rise?C. Why are parents willing to help fund for young adults?D.

Keep working? Get more exercise? Or learn something new? You may put them on hold. Theres a chance that, sooner or later, you might have to move further than you were thinking, as far as Mars (火星)On Thursday, National Geographic will show the first ever Mars show home, giving earthlings an idea of what their life could look like on the Red Planet. Set in the notsodistant year of 2037, the iglooshaped structure could be the home of your future.It shows a house built using recycled spacecraft parts and Martian soil, called regolith, which has been microwaved into bricks. Some parts of the home are recognisablekitchen, bedroombut there are fundamental differences that are vital for human survival.As the Martian atmosphere is around one hundredth as thick as the Earths, people will need permanent shelter from the sun and society will move largely indoors. Most buildings will be connected by underground passages and the houses wont have windows. The homes will have simulated solar lighting, or natural light that has been bent several times.Walls will need to be 10 to 12 feet thick, to protect people from dangerous rays that can pass through six feet of steel, and a double airlocked entrance to keep the home under proper pressure.“We dont think of our houses as things that keep us alive, but on Mars your house will be a survival centre，” says Stephen Petranek, author of How Well Live on Mars. This is not just the stuff of scifi. “Ten to twenty years from now there will certainly be people on Mars，” Petranek says.“Weve had the technology for 30 years to land people on Mars, but we havent had the will，” Petranek says. “But two main factors have completely swung public attitudes.”The private companies participation has forced government agencies to up their game, and influential films such as Gravity and The Martian have caught societys eye.【解题导语】本文主要对人类未来在火星上居住作了相关介绍。1What can we know about the show home from the text?AIt has no windows or doors due to security concern.BIts design presents the idea of environmental protection.CIt has thick walls keeping the home under proper pressure.DIts underground passages connect all the buildings together.B解析：推理判断题。根据第三段的第一句可推知，火星样板房的设计采用了可回收的宇宙飞船上的一些部件，体现了环保意识，故选B。2What do the underlined words “put them on hold” in Paragraph 1 probably mean?APut them off.BGive them away.CCarry them through.DTake them seriously.A解析：词义猜测题。根据第一段的最后一句可推知，之前的列举都可能被搁置下来，而去火星居住迟早会成为可能，故选A。3According to Petranek, what has sped up the process of sending people to Mars?AThe great influence of Mars show home.BThe development of related technology.CThe competition from private companies.DThe popularity of influential books on Mars.C解析：细节理解题。根据最后一段的“The private companies participation has forced government agencies to up their game”可知，Petranek认为一些私人企业的参与促进了送人类去火星居住这一设想的进程，故选C。4What is the best title for the text?ALiving on Mars: Possible or NotBSending People to Mars: Yes or NoCFirst Ever Show Home: How Is It Made?DFuture Home on Mars: What Will It Be like?D解析：标题归纳题。根据全文的整体内容可推知，本文主要对人类未来在火星上居住作了相关介绍，故选D。三、书面表达。假如你是李华。你的美国网友Peter来信询问你校学生社团的开展情况。请你给他写封回信，要点包括：1.学生社团简介；2.特色学生社团。注意：1.词数80左右；2.可适当增加细节，以使行文连贯；3.开头和结尾已给出，不计入总词数。Dear Peter,I am writing to make a brief introduction to the student societies in our school, in which you show interest in your letter._What about the student societies in your school?
