For the blanks with a given word, fill in each blank with the proper form of the given word; for the other blanks, use one word that best fits each blank. On the morning of September 11, 2001, computer sales manager Michael Hingson, who is blind, went early to his office on the 78th floor of the North Tower of the World Trade Center to prepare for a meeting. As Michael worked, his guide dog, a Labrador retriever_21_(name) Roselle, dozed by his feet. At 8:46 a. m., a tremendous boom rocked the building, eliciting screams throughout the floor. Michael grabbed Roselle, trusting that the dog _22_(lead)out of danger, and they navigated their way to a stairwell. “Forward,” Michael instructed, and they descended the first of 1,463 steps to the lobby. _23_about ten floors, the stairwell grew crowded and hot, and the fumes from jet fuel had made it hard to breathe. When a woman became crazy, yelling that they wouldnt make it, Roselle accompanied the woman _24_she finally petted the dog, calmed herself, and kept walking down the stairs. Around the 30th floor, firefighters started passing Michael on their way up. Each one stopped to offer him assistance. He declined but let Roselle be petted, _25_(provide)many of the firefighters with _26_would be their last experience of unconditional love. After about 45 minutes, Michael and Roselle reached _27_lobby, and 15 minutes later, they emerged outside to a scene of chaos. Suddenly the police yelled for everyone to run as the South Tower began to collapse. Michael kept a tight grip on Roselles harness, using voice and hand commands, as they ran to a street opposite the crumbling tower. The street bounced like a trampoline, and “a deafening roar” like a hellish freight train filled the air. Hours later, Michael and Roselle made it home safely. At that moment, they thought they were _28_(lucky)in the world. In the months that followed, Michael became a spokesperson for Guide Dogs for the Blind, the organization by which Roselle _29_(train). Together, they spread their message about trust and teamwork. In 2004, Roselle developed a blood disorder, _30_prevented her from guiding and touring. She died in 2011. “Ive had many other dogs,” Michael wrote, “but there is only one Roselle.”Section BDirections: Complete the following passage by using the words in the box. Each world can only be used once. Note that there is one word more than you need.A. catalog B. barely C. free D. self-consciousness E. Prospects F. compulsoryG. dropped H. assigned I. certified J. totally K. transfer For thousands of commuting students, Chabot was our Columbia, Annapolis, even our Sorbonne, offering courses in physics, stenography, auto mechanics, _31-_public accounting, foreign languages, journalism-name the art or science, the subject or trade, and it was probably in the _32_. The college had a nursing program that churned out graduates, sports teams that funneled athletes to big-time programs, and parking for a few thousand cars-all _33_, but for the effort and the cost of used textbooks. Classmates included veterans back from Vietnam, women of every marital and maternal status returning to school, middle-aged men wanting to improve their employment _34_and paychecks. We could get our general education requirements out of the way at Chabotcredits we could_35_to a university-which made those two years an invaluable head start. I was able to go on to the California State University in Sacramento (at $95 a semester, just _36_affordable) and study no other subject but my major, theater arts. (After a year there I moved on, enrolling in a little thing called the School of Hard Knocks, a.k.a. Life) “By some fluke of the punch-card computer era, I made Chabots deans list taking classes I loved(oral interpretation), classes I hesitated (health, a requirement), classes I aced, and classes I _37_after the first hour(astronomy, because it was all math). I nearly failed zoology, killing my fruit flies by neglect, but got lucky in an English course, “The College Reading Experience.” The books of Carlos Castaneda were incomprehensible to me (and still are), but my _38_presenation on the analytic process called structural dynamics was hailed as clear and concise, though I did nothing more than embellish the definition I had looked up in the dictionary. A public-speaking class was unforgettable for a couple of reasons. First, the assignments forced us to get over our_39_. Second, another student was a stewardess, as flight attendants called themselves in the 70s. She was studying communications and was gorgeous. She lived not far from me, and when my VW threw a rod and was in the shop for a week, she offered me a lift to class. I rode shotgun that Monday-Wednesday-Friday, _40_tongue-tied. Communicating with her one-on-one was the antithesis of public speaking.III Reading Comprehension(第三大题:Section A 第41至55小题,每小题1分;Section B 第56至66小题,每题2分;Section C 第67至70小题,每题2分;Section D, 10分。共55分。)Section ADirections: For each blank in the following passages there are four words or phrases marked A, B, C and D. Fill in each blank with the word or phrase that best fits the context.When buying a smartphone, I keep my criteria simple. If the device can handle WeChat, phone calls and 41 the Internet, I purchase it. If its over 1,000 yuan, I 42 it. This approach to acquiring smartphones 43 for me as I keep my needs basic. Aside from saving myself money, I may have also saved myself from some wounds or burns had I chosen a flawed phone. In recent news, things have been 44 for Samsung-literally.Samsungs most recent innovation is called the Note7. Sadly, it was discontinued(停产)only 38 days after being made 45 for consumption. At first, a few customers complained that their phones caught fire while being 46 . Samsung, being responsible, launched an investigation to 47 the cases. They issued a global recall on September 1, but it was taken merely as a suggestion and not seen as 48 Yet, earlier this month, the tech giant gave a stronger message to worldwide customers, saying all owners must stop using their Note 7s immediately.Commercial forces encourage tech companies to push the envelops and produce new products every few months. Sometimes, a conflict of interests can occur. The greed for innovation has a funny way of causing 49 for the basics- like safety- and the Note 7s situation is just one example of this. The device 50 all kinds of cool features, including a super-high resolution camera, an iris scanner and an especially powerful 51 . Ideally, manufacturers should consider all relevant aspects when creating new commodities. Samsung has both the money and technical know-how to prevent such negligence. The Note 7s 52 was most likely rushed in order to make more profit, which 53 having the opposite effect. Time will tell how much this oversight will cost with respect to Samsungs fame and future. 54 , its sage to assume that Samsung could eventually come back over the horizon and restore its reputation as a manufacturer of excellent smartphones if its new models have no major flaw. In an industry largely run by Apple and Samsung, intense competition will only bring more benefit to consumers. If Apple were to become the only 55 company, we would be left with options for top-of-the line phones.41. A surf B. access C. launch D. process42. A. buy B. desire C. recommend D. abandon43.

For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D, Choose are one that fits best according to the information given in the passage you have just read.(A)For the first time in its history the International Olympic Committee has allowed a team of refugees to compete at the Games. All of the teams members were forced to leave their home countries. Now theyve come together to compete under the Olympic flag instead.Making it to the Olympics is something eighteen-year- old swimmer Yusra has always dreamed of. But just last year, she was swimming for her life. She and her sister were forced to leave their home in Syria because of the war there. They were trying to get to Greece in a rubber dinghy with eighteen other refugees, when their boat broke down and began billing with water. Most of the people on board couldnt swim so she and her sister jumped in to help push it to shore.Three hours later, they made it to safety, and eventually to Germany as refugees. Refugees are people who have left their home country because their lives are threatened by war, bad treatment or violence- often because of their race, gender or beliefs. Around the world, more than 60 million people are in this situation. And some of them, like Yusra, are elite athletes who have trained all their lives to compete at the highest level, only to have that chance taken away.Now, a team of ten, including swimmers, runners, and judokas from Syria, South Sudan, Ethiopia and Congo have been given the chance to competes at the Games under the Olympic flag. Theyve also been given their own coaches, officials uniforms, and a chef, all paid for by the IOC. And in the past few months theyve been training hard. The IOC says it wants the team to inspire and give hope to other refugees, and draw attention to the issues millions of others around the world are facing. And these guys say theyre up to the task, whether they win gold or not.“This will be a symbol of hope for all the refugees in our world and will make the world better aware of the magnitude of this crisis,” IOC President Thomas Bach said in a statement. “ It is also a signal to the international community that refugees are our fellow human beings and are an enrichment to society.”“These refugee athletes will show the world that despite the unimaginable tragedies that they have faced, anyone can contribute to society through their talent, skills and strength of the human spirit,” the statement continues.56. What does the underlined sentence mean? A. She trained all her life B. She swam for the glory of life C. She swam to escape being drowned D. She swam to escape from other refugees.57. Where do Yusra and her sister live as refugees now? A. Syria B. Germany C. Congo D. Ethiopin58. Which of the following is not a reason why the refugees are threatened to leave their country A. Race B. Violence C. Religion D. Nationality.59. The IOC allowed team of refugees to compete in the Olympic Games in order to_. A. help the refugees to fulfill their dreams of winning the Olympic gold medal B. offer the refugees a chance to earn bread by themselves C. light a candle of hope for all the refugees in the world D. curse the darkness of the society by forcing them to pay attention to the life of refugees.(B)As the MOOC craze continues to explode, anyone interested in taking an online course faces a tricky question: Which course to take? Here are five aspects that you should consider before you start.(1)What is your learning style? Many MOOCs are video-based. Other courses use presentation formats. Some also require participation in group work. If you want to stay motivated during your course, think about how you enjoy learning.Are you a visual learner, preferring to use images to understand a topic? If so, a video-based course will work well for you. If you are a verbal learner who gains new information by speaking and writing, try a text-based course with lots of note-taking. Social learners, meanwhile, will thrive in forum discussions and project-based assessment.(2) Are you ready to become a full-time student? Be realistic about the time that you can commit to your online studies. Participating in an online course can take as much time and commitment as a class-based program. Check the course requirements and make a plan around your current schedule.(3) Does the course really meet your needs? Whether you re interested in a professional qualification or want to take a personal development course like yoga, there is a MOOC for you. Its easy to get caught up in the excitement of taking lots of free courses in everything that you ever wanted to learn. Before you start a course, think about the end goal. Is the course aimed at beginners or advanced learners? Why do you need this qualification?(4)Do you need a support group? Some people learn best from seeing how others approach the problem. If you are such a learner, you will need to supplement your online lessons with an in-person support group.(5) What kind of certification will you get? Take time to find out what kind of certification is available upon completion of the course, and how you can prove your learning to othersfor example,
