He turns 100 this month, and the city is making preparations to celebrate him in style. Readings and performances and an open house will take place at City Lights, the sacred bookstore he co-founded in 1953.On March 24, 1919, Lawrence Ferlinghetti was born in Yonkers, New York. After spending his early childhood in France, he received his BA from the University of North Carolina, an MA from Columbia University, and a PhD from the Sorbonne.He is the author of more than thirty books of poetry, including Poetry as Insurgent Art; A Coney Island of the Mind. He has translated the works of a number of poets, including Nicanor Parra, Jacques Prevert, and Pier Paolo Pasolini. In addition to poetry, he is also the author of more than eight plays and three novels, including Little Boy: A Novel, Love in the Days of Rage and Her.In 1953, Ferlinghetti and Peter Martin opened the City Lights bookstore in San Francisco, California. It became a nerve center for the Beats and other writers. Allen Ginsberg, Jack Kerouac and other writers from that era were Easterners who dropped into San Francisco for a spell. In 2001 it was made an official historic landmark. Now City Lights is almost certainly the best bookstore in the United States. Its filled with serious world literature of all kinds.If City Lights is a San Francisco institution, Ferlinghetti himself is as much of one. He has loomed over the citys literary life. As a poet, hes never been a critical favorite. But his flexible and plain-spoken and often powerful work he has published more than 50 volumes has found a wide audience. His collection “A Coney Island of the Mind” has sold more than 1 million copies, making it one of the best-selling American poetry books ever published.24What can we learn about Ferlinghetti from Paragraph 2?AHe had a happy childhood. BHe received normal education.CHe had a gift for writing novels. DHe had written lots of poetry.25Which of the following best describes Ferlinghetti according to Paragraph 3?AFlexible.BOptimistic.COutspoken.DProductive.26Why is City Lights famous?ABecause it is a nerve center for the youth. BBecause its collections have a long history.CBecause it is an official historic landmark.DBecause it has many modern world literature.27What is the authors purpose in writing the text?ATo speak highly of a great poet. BTo introduce some English poetry.CTo promote values of City Lights. DTo celebrate the birthday of Ferlinghetti.CYour next Saturday night takeaway could be brought to you by a robot after a major food delivery company announced plans to use automated vehicles to transport meals. Europes biggest online takeaway food company Just Eat has partnered with Starship Technologies to deliver food with robots on the streets of London later this month. “Nobody has ever done deliveries with land-based robots,” said Allan Martinson, the chief operating officer of Starship.The robot courier can travel up to 4 miles per hour for about 10 miles. It uses a GPS signal and nine cameras to navigate (确定方向). Instead of a person arriving at their door, customers could find themselves receiving a notification on their phone that says a robot is on its way and a code to unlock the automated courier. “Put the code in, the robot opens up, and theres your food,” said David Buttress, chief manager of Just Eat.The robot, which has so far been tested in Greenwich, Milton Keynes and Glastonbury, costs 1 to transport within 3 miles, compared with the 3 to 6 it costs for a human courier. To date 30 robots have driven nearly 5,000 miles without getting into an accident or finding themselves picked on by passers-by. They have driven in more than 40 cities around the world, including London and Tallinn, Estonia.An initial worry was how the public would react to robots. But Martinson said the public has been calm when passing the delivery machine on the streets. “The most surprising reaction has been the lack of reaction,” said Martinson.Another significant fear was that people would disrupt (扰乱) the robots, or try to steal them and their contents. To prevent this, the robot is fitted with nine cameras, two way audio, and movement sensors that send a warning if it is lifted off the ground. And it opens only with a passcode provided to the customer via a notification. “Its much easier to shoplift than it is to steal a robot,” said Martinson.28Which of the following can replace the underlined word “courier” in Paragraph 2?Adeliverer Bcollector Cprovider Dguide29According to the text, the Starship robot _.Aopens up upon hearing the code Btravels 10 miles per hour at mostCfinds its way by means of GPS and camerasDsends a message to the customer upon arrival30Which of the following is one of the worries about Starship robots?ASafety of the robot delivery. BAccuracy of the robot deliveryCPeoples indifference to the robots. DPeoples concern about public traffic.31Which of the following would be the best title for the text?AGreat Improvement of Just Eat BGlobal Trend of Food CompaniesCNew Robots to Move on the road DDelivery Robots to Replace Takeaway DriversDCan you trust your very first childhood memories? Maybe not, a new study suggests.Past researches show that peoples earliest memories typically form around 3 to 3. 5 years of age. But in a recent survey of more than 6,600 people, British scientists have found that 39 percent of participants claimed to have memories from age 2 or younger. These first memories are likely false, the researchers said. This was particularly the case for middle -aged and older adults.For the study, researchers asked participants to describe their first memory and the age at which it occurred. Participants were told they had to be sure the memory was the one that had happened. For example, it shouldnt be based on a photograph, a family story or any source other than direct experiences. Then the researchers examined the content, language and descriptive details of these earliest memories and worked out the likely reasons why people would claim to have memories from an age when memories cannot form.As many of these memories dated before the age of 2, this suggests they were not based on actual facts, but facts or knowledge about their babyhood or childhood from photographs or family stories. Often these false memories are fired by a part of an early experience, such as family relationships or feeling sad, the researchers explained.We suggest that what a rememberer has in mind when recalling fictional early memories is a mental representation consisting of remembered pieces of early experiences and some facts or knowledge about their own babyhood or childhood, study author Shania Kantar said in a journal news release, Additionally, further details may be unconsciously inferred or added. Such memory-like mental representations come over time, to be collectively experienced when they come to mind, so for the individual, they quite simply are memories, which particularly point to babyhood. Importantly, the person remembering them doesnt know this is fictional, study co-author Martin Conway said In fact, when people are told that their memories are false they often dont believe it. 32What can we learn from a recent study?AMemories form after the age of 3. BParticipants are good at telling storiesC.Adults are likely to form false memories D.Earliest memories may play a trick on us33Which source did the researchers require for the earliest memories?A.A direct experience. BA family story. CA family photo.DA sad feeling.34What are these fictional early memories according to Kantar?AThey are repeated mental representations. BThey are a collection of early experiences.CThey are a combination of both facts and fictions.DThey are further details of remembered experiences.35Which part of a newspaper is this text probably taken from?ASociety.BPsychology.CTechnology.DHealth.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。Four trends in modern office1. Bringing in more breakout spaces and lounge areasOffices are creating a new mixture of furniture zones that offer both laid-back and traditional seating options.36 Many offices now include green areas that bring the feeling of nature indoors, and wellness rooms where members can meditate, practice yoga, or engage in any activity that lets them take a break from sitting at their desks.2. Building smaller conference roomsTraditional board rooms and conference rooms with tables big enough to host 20 people are another casualty of the remote workforce movement. Instead, smaller conference rooms are quickly becoming the new norm for office meeting environments. 37In this new mobile climate, many employees are starting to come into the physical office only for face-to-face meetings with co-workers or to bring in vendors and clients for presentations. This means that employees are specifically coming into the office for access to these meeting rooms, and offices should be sizing those spaces accordingly.3. 38When offices have more employees working from home or even from other countries its critical to have the proper technology to connect people together easily.To do this, offices are using VoIP phones. 39 , to help employees around the world appear as though theyre calling from the office.4. Smaller offices, smaller carbon footprintThere are huge bonuses, both financially and environmentally, to offices employing more remote workers. For employers, less people in the office equals less needed space. 40 For employees, the ability to work remotely means an erased commute, which in turn will reduce air pollution and help create a smaller carbon footprint.A. More VoIP phones, more convenient connectionB. They simply fit four to six people and a media center.C. Better technology to cut the bond between office and home.D. They make phone calls through the internet rather than regular landlines.E. Huge amounts of money can be saved by renting smaller office spaces, and by using less energy and water.F. Employers build fitness center to encourage their employees to build up their body.G. Workplaces are also starting to take advantage of fitness initiatives to help employees refresh themselves.第三部分英语知识运用(共两节，满分45分)第一节(共20小题；每小题1.5分，满分30分)阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。Every year, as soon as Halloween is over, our son Matthew waits for the lights.
