the person behind him He also asks the restaurant workers to tell the customer to have a great day in case they re not already having one Oliver has never made a big deal out of his own generous actions until a letter was published by a news website in November He found out that he had not just bought someone his breakfast he had saved a life According to the website someone had written a letter stating that on July 18th he was planning on committing suicide The writer said that while he was at the drive through window he was planning on going home writing a note and ending his life When he went to pay for his coffee and muffin however the cashier told him that the man in the SUV in front of him had picked up the tab and told him to have a great day I wondered why someone would buy coffee for a stranger for no reason said the writer Why me Why today If I were a religious man I would take this as a sign This random act of kindness was directed at me on this day for a purpose When the writer arrived home he couldn t hold back his tears and started to think about the simple good deed that had affected him so deeply I decided at that moment to change my plans for the day and do something nice for someone I ended up helping a neighbor take groceries out of her car and into the house The writer says that in the months following that fateful event he does at least one kind thing for others every day To the nice man in the SUV thank you from the bottom of my heart Please know your kind gesture has truly saved a life he said On July 18 2017 I had the greatest day 4 What is Oliver s act of kindness every day A Buying others breakfast B Greeting restaurant workers C Publishing positive news D Taking groceries for neighbors 5 What is special about Oliver s act of kindness on July 18 2017 A It brought him thank you letters B It was reported on a news website C It was the first time he d paid for others D It stopped someone from killing himself 6 What does the underlined phrase picked up the tab mean in Paragraph 3 A Paid the bill B Parked the car C Left a message D Ordered a drink 7 How did the writer of the letter feel after the event A He felt guilty B He felt grateful C He felt confused D He felt saddened C Artificial intelligence AI has been undergoing great progress in the last decade An AI program can imitate human functions such as problem solving and learning While AI offers much promise for the development of smarter and more useful machines it also fills many with fear of a dull future where millions are thrown out of work replaced by robots and smart machines It s perhaps possible that humans will one day be reduced to servants of our machine overlords but a calm assessment predicts a mixed effect of AI on the job market History teaches us that machines do replace humans but somehow there are still plenty of jobs available today The reason is that automation can take the place of labor on certain jobs but also adds labor for other jobs that are not easily automated making labor more productive and actually increasing the demand for workers Jobs composed of repetitive tasks are the ones most defenseless to automation Examples including automated weaving machines ATMs production line welders 焊接工 and phone answering systems It might seem that these advances would simply throw people out of work But look at the example of the weaving machines They increased productivity 50 fold and dropped the price of cloth by 98 percent The demand for cloth exploded as the price fell thus creating more weaver jobs In the years between 1830 and 1900 the number of weaver jobs increased 4 fold despite automation Automation increased demand for weavers but also changed the nature of the weaver s job A similar process happened with ATMs which didn t remove the need for human tellers whose numbers actually have risen since ATMs were introduced in the 1970s The intelligent response is for the public and private sectors to create worker training programs to teach new skills that will be required despite the spread of automation This will require all investment in on the job training and lifelong learning 8 What can we know about AI from Paragraph 1 A It has a history of no more than 10 years B It leaves many people worrying about job loss C It is already too advanced to be further improved D It is unable to learn or solve problems like humans 9 What does the author say about automation in Paragraph 2 A It will surely reduce job chances for humans B It will certainly help improve productivity C It wi11 enable machines to enslave humans D It will eventually take the place of all human labor 10 What is the author s main purpose of listing the examples in Paragraph 3 A To tell us how to expand the job market to cut costs B To explain why certain jobs suffer greatly from automation C To show what is the best way to have productivity improved D To prove automation doesn t necessarily make humans jobless 11 Which of the following can be the best title for the passage A How AI will develop in the future B How AI will transform the job market C How man will benefit from automation D How man will survive in the age of automation D There is a change of attitude toward the pink and blue divide in toys Target the second largest discount retailer 折扣零售店 in the US announced in 2015 that it would get rid of signs labeling toys for boys or for girls A UK campaign called Let Toys Be Toys seeks to get retailers to stop dividing toys and books for one gender 性别 only Researchers have worried about the effect of having toys that were so segregated 分开的 by gender for some time says Lisa Dinella associate professor at Monmouth University Clearly divided pink and blue toys with dolls and tea sets on one side and trucks and building blocks on the other are actually a pretty recent development As recently as the 1970s toys sold in the US were not always marketed with clear gender distinctions By the 1980s and 1990s however toys started to become more gender segregated though it was still not so sharply divided as today says Elizabeth Sweet a lecturer in sociology at the University of California Davis While it may seem like a small issue toys help children to develop new skills says Dinella Dolls and pretend kitchens are good at teaching kids early language skills Building blocks like Lego and puzzles teach skills related to space which help set the groundwork for learning math Both genders lose out if we put kids on one track and they can t explore says Dinella Some parents try to introduce other types of toys and get away from the strictly pink and blue divide But it s difficult for parents to ignore the marketing and get their kids toys or costumes meant for the other gender says Dinella While some parents try to broaden the toys their children are exposed to there is often a social cost to the child for crossing gender boundaries So it is hard for parents to throw out the rules she says Researchers hope that one day toys will stop being broken up by gender and will instead be categorized 分类 by type like puzzle toys dolls or children s bikes Toy choices Sweet says should be based on kids personal interests and not on their gender 12 What trend is described in the first paragraph A Offering different toys to boys and girls B Giving kids more time to play with toys C Making more colorful toys for kids D Ending the gender divide in toys 13 How will the pink and blue toy divide affect kids according to Dinella A Helping them develop in a quite normal way B Making them better communicate with others C Urging them to master more knowledge and skills D Causing them to miss many opportunities to learn 14 What is hard for the parents mentioned by Dinella A Buying kids toys at relatively low prices B Buying kids toys aimed at the other gender C Buying kids new types of toys D Buying kids high quality toys 15 What might be Sweet s attitude to Target s decision A Supportive B Doubtful C Uncaring D Curious 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 Some people say volunteering abroad is unaffordable for ordinary people 16 Volunteering isn t so expensive that it s only an option for the well off Last year I spent 10 weeks volunteering in Arizona helping to preserve America s natural beauty Altogether it cost me around 1 000 a sum which I covered mostly by working in my student bar I spent my time maintaining trails building fences and caring out re vegetation projects in some of the national parks and national monuments of America Summer temperatures in Arizona stay well above 35 not ideal if you re carrying 50kg of concrete for 10 hours at a time 17 One afternoon I was taking a nap when suddenly I realized that a snake was resting only 3 meters from me The experience needless to say improved my strength of character and reduced my fear of the English household spider 18 But in reality you benefit just as much as the local communities and eco systems you re helping Spending 10 months in America s most beautiful national parks and forests was an unforgettable experience I gained a far deeper understanding of the local environment than the average tourist meeting ex national park keepers who had a unique knowledge of the area s history and ecosystem 19 Being placed in an unfamiliar environment forces you to use your initiative 主动性 and develop self confidence surviving 10 days of camping in the wild is something that three years of university could never provide When I look back on the work I completed it makes writing a paper and academic deadlines seem a lot more manageable But best of all my 10 weeks were spent volunteering with young people from a mix of cultures and backgrounds from Belgians to South Koreans 20 A And then there s the wildlife to deal with B I suffered a great deal from this experience C From my experience this couldn t be further from the truth D Many people will give time and energy if they see a benefit for themselves E The most challenging aspects of working abroad are also the most beneficial F Most people volunteer because they want to give something back to the world G When I left Arizona I returned home having made friends with students from across the world 第三部分 英语知识运用 共两节 满分第三部分 英语知识运用 共两节 满分 45 分 分 第一节 完形填空
