Some feel proud when they receive the news, while others worry, wondering whether they will be good fathers. Although there are some men who like children and may have had considerable experience with them, others do not particularly care for children and spend little time with them. Many fathers and mothers have been planning and looking forward to children for some time. For other couples, pregnancy(怀孕) was an accident that both husband and wife have accepted willingly or unwillingly.Whatever the reaction to the birth of a child, it is obvious that the shift from the role of husband to that of father is a difficult task. Yet, unfortunately, few attempts have been made to educate fathers in this resocialization process. Although numerous books have been written about American mother, only recently has literature(文学) focused on the role of a father.It is argued by some writers that the transition(转化) to the fathers role, although difficult, is not nearly as great as the transition the wife must make to the mothers role. The mothers role seems to require a complete transformation in daily routine and highly innovative(革新性的) adaptation, on the other hand, the fathers role is less demanding and immediate. However, even though we mentioned the fact that growing numbers of women are working outside the home, the father is still thought by many as the breadwinner in the household.21. It is stated in the passage that _A. young couples do not like children at allB. some parents are not prepared to have a childC. working couples do not have much time to take care of their childrenD. many parents look forward to having a boy as their first child22. In the third paragraph, the author _ .A. criticizes fathers for not taking enough responsibilities in bringing up their childrenB. excuses the American writers for ignoring the difficulties of being a fatherC. supports the idea that the chief role of a father is to earn money for the familyD. complains about the lack of social program to help husbands get used to the role of a father23. Some writers argue that with respect to the change of roles, fathers, compared with mothers, _.A. have an easier job to do B. have to make more difficult adaptationsC. have to shoulder more burdensD. can usually do a better jobBThere are three branches of medicine. One is called “doctor medicine,” or “scientific medicine.” Scientific doctors try to observe sicknesses, look for logical patterns, and then find out how the human body works. From there they figure out what treatments may work. This kind of medicine is believed to date from the 4th century BC. Although nowadays it is successful, in the ancient world this approach probably did not cure many patients.A second kind of medicine is called “natural cures,” or “folk medicine,” in which less educated people try to cure sicknesses with various herbs(中草药). These folk healers also use observation and logic, but they are not so aware of it. They try things until they find something that seems to work, and then keep doing that. Folk medicine flourished long before the development of scientific medicine and was more successful in ancient times than doctor medicine.The third kind is called “health spas,” or “faith healing.” Sometimes this may be as simple as touching the holy man and being immediately healed. Other times, a magician may make you a magic charm, or say a spell, to cure you. Some religious groups organize special healing shrines for the sick. In these places people rest, get plenty of sleep, eat healthy food, drink water instead of wine, and exercise in various ways. They also talk to the priests and pray to the gods. If you are feeling depressed or you have been working too hard, going to these places may be just the right thing to make you feel better.24. Doctor medicine _.A. has a longer history than folk medicineB. has been practiced for around 1,600 yearsC. bases its treatments on observation and logicD. was very successful in curing sicknesses in ancient times.25. According to the passage, which of the following is NOT used in health spas?A. Magic power. B. Various herbs.C. Religious faith.D. A healthy life style.26. According to the passage, which of the following statements is true?A. Folk healers choose different herbs to cure diseases without any sound basis.B. People who practice folk medicine need lots of formal education on herbs.C. The success of folk medicine led to the development of doctor medicine.D. Natural cures worked better than scientific medicine in ancient times.27. The authors primary purpose in this passage is to _.A. describe different types of medicineB. argue for the importance of medicine in health care.C. show the crucial (决定性的) role religion plays in medical treatments.D. compare the educational background of three different types of patients.CWe already know that exercise is good for our bodies. Daily exercise fights the loss of muscle tone and flexibility that tends to increase slowly with age. And it turns out that it has the same fountain-of-youth effects on our brains.Studies show that over time our minds also become less flexible and nimble. We lose the ability to process new information or switch between mental tasks quickly - and now we know why.A recent study examined nearly 100 individual studies on exercise and brain function and discovered exercising an average of 52 hours over six months is “associated with improved cognitive(认知的)performance in older adults with and without cognitive damage”. The types of exercises that are beneficial include aerobics, strength-training and mind-body.In previous studies, researchers from Japans University of Tsukuba wanted to explore this idea by looking at the effect of exercise on this weakening of the brain. They tested the oxygen ability of 60 Japanese men between the ages of 64 and 75 who did not show any signs of dementia or other mental illnesses. Next, they looked at the brain activity of each man as he completed a mental task. They found that the fitter a participant was, the less brain activity he used to complete the tasks when compared with his out-of-shape peers(同龄人).Although much research is focused on how exercise may benefit an aging brain, exercise offers brain health benefits at almost any age, and this includes children. A review of 14 studies shows that more physically active schoolchildren do better academically. Exercise actually causes your brain to grow in size. So get moving and keep moving for best results.28.Which of the following best explains “nimble” underlined in Paragraph 2?A. Intelligent.B. Dull.C. Traditional.D. Simple.29.What can we infer about the less-active peers among the participants?A. They had significant brain advantages.B. Their brains were younger than their ages.C. They didnt have to attend health classes.D. Their cognitive performance would decline.30. How does the author support his idea?A. By making comparisons. B. By describing the processes.C. By analyzing study results. D. By telling his own experiences.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。Everybody likes to get a freebie(赠品). On my way to work today I was offered a bottle of new mineral water. Lucky me eh? 31 . Where you can get a freebie depends on a number of factors.For businesses, giving out something for nothing is an important marketing technique. They want to see our reaction and hear our feedback(反馈) and finally make us buy more. 32 . They want to target the so-called trendsetters(潮人), in the hope that they will speak positively about the product and encourage people to buy more.33 . Not only is the population larger but these places are also considered the trendsetters forretailpurchases. So if you live in London, Paris or Beijing, youll probably see a new promotional campaign starting there first. The hope is that the fashionable people there will try and like the new item and support it on social media. Eventually everyone around the country will know about it.How businesses give away freebies is also of interest. 34 : future selling, cross-selling and up-selling. The first is about giving something away assuming we will like it and buy more later. With cross-selling, the company tries to gain new clients(客户) through an entrance product, with the intention of selling them additional products during their life cycle and up-selling happens when a basic version is given away for free but charges a client for more advanced and complete versions.35 . Someone has to pay for it and this usually comes from a firms marketing budget which is funded by the products we buyso the expression theres no such thing as a free lunch could be true.A. We might not give it much thoughtB. Well its a not necessarily down to luckC. Of course a freebie is not actually freeD. But who they hear from is very importantE. Maybe you have experienced one of these approachesF. According to economist Enrico Trevisan, they have three approachesG. Living in a capital city certainly improves your chances of getting a freebie第三部分 语言知识运用(共两节,满分45分)第一节 完形填空(共20小题;每小题l5分,满分30分)阅读下面短文,从短文后各题所给的四个选项(A、B、C、和D)中,选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。Did you ever have a dream?

After many revisions, a board game was developed. It was a(n) 41 time. Our dream seemed to come true with sales starting to accumulate, and our company was also 42 .43 , another new board game 44 the market and made great progress in sales. Eventually, our company was dissolved(解散).Perhaps for a game developer, the 45 emotions will discourage his future dreams of a different life. But to me, maybe I didnt succeed to the level I 46 , at the very least I turned my dream 47 a reality. 48 I had never transferred my dream into goal and then to action, there wouldnt have been 49 lessons to be learned from the failure. It may take many 50 before success is achieved. Once dreams are 51 action, failure becomes a 52 action plans in future. The important 53 here is that success only comes by turning dreams into reality and realizing that 54 are only stepping-stones to final success. After many attempts, many failures, many lessons and many false starts, learn valuable lessons from failure, turn dreams into 55 , and dont let a dream only be a dream, success will arrive at last.36.A.future B.life C.dream D.plan37.A.factory B.business C.car D.farm38.A.environment B.school C.family D.society39.A.enjoyably B.previously C.eventually D.currently40.A.destroy B.realize C.change D.turn41.A.exciting B.terrible C.dark D.embarrassing42.A.canceled B.combined C.disappeared D.founded43.A.Unfortunately B.Unlikely C.Unconsciously D.Unfairly44.A.came into B.left out C.came back D.took in45.A.optimistic B.negative C.difficult D.positive46.A.needed B.devoted C.desired D.begged47.A by B.on C.over D.into48.A.Unless B.If C.After D.Before49.A.valuable B.successful C.useless D.cruel50.A.analyses B.designs C.attempts D.revisions51.A.took up B.look into C.run across D.put into52.A.useless B.better C.most D.bad53.A.meaning B.point C.truth D.purpose54.A.efforts B achievements C.possibilities D.difficulties55.A.heart B.existence C.action D.ambition第卷(非选择题共55分)第二节(共10小题;每小题1.5分,满分15分)阅读下面材料,在空白处填入适当的内容(1个单词)或括号内单词的正确形式。China has developed a technology that is able to transform desert lands into available soil. The technology 56 (develop) several years ago by researchers at Chongqing JiaoTong University. They invented a paste(黏合剂)made of a material found in plant cell walls that, when 57 (mix) with sand, is able to keep water, nutrients and air.According 58 CGTN, Chinese scientists have achieved success in growing crops in areas with bad conditions caused by lack of rain and 59 (extreme) hot temperatures. One particular area is in a desert in North Chinas Inner Mongolia. Over 70 kinds of crops are growing there. Many are not planted by humans but they just grow 60 (they). And the costs of artificial materials and machines for transforming sand into soil is far 61 (low)compared with regular methods. Now, nearly 500 acres of sand is being turned into farms producing corn, 62 (tomato) and sunflowers. A reforestation(重造森林)project is also in progress now, 63 is set to reforest 50% of desert land in three years.Researchers are looking into expanding their project this fall, with 64 plan to transform another 500 acres of desert. In the next few years, the scientists are 65 (confidence) that they can turn over 30,000 acres more into rich ground.第四部分 写作(共两节,满分40分)第一节 概要写作(满分15分)阅读下面短文,根据其内容写一篇60词左右的内容概要。Bonus(奖金) culture has become the subject of many studies nowadays. Do performance-related bonuses really improve performance? Can bonuses help companies and institutions attract and keep the best staff? The answer may come as a shock to many people that bonus can actually make people perform badly in many circumstances, and that the more you pay, the worse they perform.There are some obvious reasons why such payments can fail. Most bonus projects are poorly designed, says Professor Malcolm Higgs. He thinks the reason is that organisations try to keep bonus arrangements simple. Nevertheless, he thinks bonus projects can work as long as they link the interests of individual employees with the long-term goals of a business.Bonuses can also encourage cheating. “Once you start making peoples rewards dependent on outcomes rather than behaviours, people will do whatever they can to get those outcomes,” says Professor Edward Deci. “In many cases the high officials simply lied and cheated to make the stock (股票) price go up so they got huge bonuses.”But the work of Deci and others suggests the problem with bonuses runs far deeper than poor design or cheating. In 1971, he asked students to solve puzzles, with some receiving cash prizes for doing well and others getting nothing. Deci found those offered cash were less likely to keep working on puzzles
