I want to be away from home. I wanted to go somewhere new and exciting. This became the theme of the next twenty years. Id spend the whole year counting down to my next holiday, and then as soon as I left Id begin to dread having to return home, year after year.Ten years ago, I decided to build a life that I didnt want to escape from. I knew I wanted to travel in the long term, but I didnt have a lot of money or savings, and there was no one paying for my adventures. For five years, I did three jobs while studying full-time at university. I didnt eat out and I didnt buy anything I didnt need. I even moved in with my parents. I was able to save $16,000 over those five years, which was enough to keep me on the road for a couple of years.But what if two years wouldnt be enough? Before leaving, I began to spend my time in making plans that would allow me to work anywhere that had an Internet connection. At the time, I was studying for a master degree in physics. While studying I came up with a list of my interests and skills and began researching into a way to do these anywhere. If I could make money from it and if I could do it online then it was something worth going after.I created a writing file that would help me to find the free writing jobs. I researched English and physics teaching online, and built travel websites to earn income through sale and advertising. Most of these failed, but I didnt give up.The work I do has changed over the years and its still changing now. Now, I pay my traveling through several different things. Im the Student Travel Expert for A, and a senior writer for Too Many Adapters, a travel technology website. In addition, I will have my first book published this summer. I also offer a travel planning service to help readers prepare for their travels abroad.To reach this point, where I can cover my expenses and travel full-time, took many, many years of hard work. For me, the freedom makes it worth it. With everything set in place, finally my dreams came true.24. What does the underlined word “dread” mean in Paragraph 1?A.forget B. fear C. miss D. consider25. The author has taken the following jobs except .A. placing advertisements online B. offering a travel planning serviceC. free writing on the websites D. teaching physics in a university26 Which of the following best describes the author?A. open-minded B. strong-willed C. cold-blooded D.kind-hearted 27. What is the passage mainly about?A. Why the author desired freedom. B. Why the author needed money.C. How the author made his living D. How the author realized his dream.C“To educate a girl is to educate a thousand people,” says Maimouna Samak, a mother of six children (including five girls). “If you put one seed in the ground and rain comes, it will grow to produce many seeds.”Samak, one of 2,000 residents, lives in a small village, Sounkala, in one of the worlds poorest countries. Now she has a chance to see this wish come true thanks to Build On, an American non-profit organization that is building a school in her community.For 17 years, Build On has been sending American high school students overseas to create schools in places where literacy (文化) and formal education are usually out of reach. The organization has built about 300 schools in Mali, Malawi, Nepal, Senegal, Nicaragua and Haiti. Its goal is to get young Americans in mostly urban areas to get involved in education. At the same time it can bring literacy to children and adults in poor villages in the developing world.Sounkalas current school only has about 70 children; mud floors, poor lighting, few desks and an absence of books mean that the school is not the most ideal learning environment. Therefore they certainly could use Build Ons help.Samak hasnt been to school, but she wants a better future for her five daughters, including Ramatou, 12, and Mariam, 10. “When a woman attends school, she will teach what she learns to her children,” said Ramatou, who wants to become a doctor. “She will also know how to take better care of her family.”Build On tries to build schools for grades one to three. If things go well over those three years, they return to help build another school for grades four to six, and then set up evening adult literacy classes.Ramatou and Mariam will not learn inside the walls of Build On school since they are already in the sixth grade, but Samak hopes that they will be able to attend evening classes to continue learning.28. Which of the following aspects of Build On is NOT mentioned in the text?A. Its sources of funding. B.Its history. C. Its approach. D.Its goal. 29. According to the text, Build On is most likely to help a school _.A. in a village in a developed countryB. in an urban area in a developing countryC. in a rural area in a developing countryD. in an earthquake-stricken area in a developed country30. What do we know about Samak and her family?A.Mariam is in the sixth grade. B. Samak is well-educated.C. Ramatou is a doctor. D. Samak only has daughters.31. The text mainly tells us about _.A. peoples education conditions in poor areasB. a womans dream of going to schoolC. an organization that helps build schools for people in poor areasD. Build Ons great contributions to education DThe sharing economy, represented by companies like Airbnb or Uber, is the latest fashion craze. But many supporters have overlooked the reality that this new business model is largely based on escaping regulations and breaking the law.Airbnb is an Internet-based service that allows people to rent out spare rooms to strangers for short stays. Uber is an Internet taxi service that allows thousands of people to answer ride requests with their own cars. There are hundreds of other such services.The good thing about the sharing economy is that it promotes the use of underused resources. Millions of people have houses or apartments with empty rooms, and Airbnb allows them to profit from these rooms while allowing guests a place to stay at prices that are often far less than those charged by hotels. Uber offers prices that are competitive with standard taxi prices and their drivers are often much quicker and more trustworthy (值得信任的).But the downside of the sharing economy has gotten much less attention. Most cities and states both tax and regulate hotels, and the tourists who stay in hotels are usually an important source of tax income. But many of Airbnbs customers are not paying the taxes required under the law.Airbnb can also raise issues of safety for its customers and trouble for hosts neighbors. Hotels are regularly inspected (检查) to ensure that they are not fire traps and that they dont form other risks for visitors. Airbnb hosts face no such inspections.Since Airbnb is allowing people to escape taxes(税收) and rules, the company is simply promoting (引起) thefts. Others in the economy will lose by carrying an additional tax burden or being forced to live next to an apartment unit with a never-ending series of noisy visitors.The same story may apply with Uber. Uber is currently in disagree over whether its cars meet the safety and insurance requirements imposed(强加)on standard taxis. Also, if Uber and related services flood the market, they could harm all taxi drivers ability to earn a minimum wage.This downside of the sharing needs to be taken seriously, but that doesnt mean the current tax and regulatory structure is perfect.32. What is the positive thing about the sharing economy?A. It is a global trend. B. It draws on spare resources.C. It is beyond regulations. D. It brings in modest profits.33. What is the problem with Airbnbs customers according to the passage?A. They are closely inspected. B. They are likely to steal from the hosts.C. They can be noisy to hosts neighbours. D.They have to pay heavy taxes. 34. What is the argument over Uber according to the passage？A. Whether it guarantees customers safety. B. Whether it provides reliable services.C. Whether it lowers customers expenses. D. Whether it can compete with standard taxis.35. What is likely to be talked about in the following paragraphs?A. The benefits of the sharing economy. B. Necessary improvements of current laws.C. Further development of Airbnb and Uber. D. More downsides of Airbnb and Uber.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。选项中存两项为多余选项。How could we live without the Internet?
