My Kid-Free LifeI had expected to have more free time after my sons, Evan and Alex, each left for college and I do. The kitchen calendar looks spare. Rarely (21) _ I need to prepare family dinner every day. There is a lot (22) _ (little) laundry.When the boys were infants, I wondered how I (23) _ (spend) all the hours before they were born. (24) _ _ I have those hours back, I can focus on my own needs.I had also expected to worry about them when they were away. And I do. Did they get their flu shots (流感疫苗注射)?Will they remember the talks about “good choices”? On the other hand, the worry is mixed with relief. I have seen (25) _ vigorously they grow without me.Do I miss them? Yes. Both more and less than Id guessed. Do I feel united for having lost my primary role in life? No, because over the year, I took great pride (26)_ the fact that my identity was not dependent on theirs. But, surprisingly, yes. (27) _ (be) a different kind of mother defines me now.The missing comes at unexpected moments: seeing the school bus drive by, starting to put too many plates on the table When they have doubts about friendships or job prospects, I can only say, “Im sure you will figure it out.”And yet, the spaces (28) _ (empty) by loss are more than filled by what Ive found.

Address B. fascination C. governed D. imposing E. offensiveF. originally G. overlooking H. rebellion I. reminder J. randomly K. sweptPalaces are known for their beauty and splendor, but they offer little protection against attacks. It is easy to defend a fortress (堡垒), but fortresses are not designed with the comfort of king or queen in mind. When it comes to structures that are both(31) _ and well-fortified the classic European castle is the pinnacle (小尖顶)of design. Across the ages castles changed, developed,and eventually fell out of use, but they still command the (32) _ of our culture.Castles were (33) _ built in England by Norman invaders in 1066. As William the Conqueror (34) _ through England, he fortified key positions to secure the land he had taken. The castles he built allowed the Norman lords to retreat to safety when threatened by English (35) _. Castles also served as bases of operation for offensive attacks. Troops were summoned to, organized around, and deployed from castles. In this way castles served both (36)_ and defensive roles in military operations.Not limited to military purposes, castles also served as offices from Which the lord would administer control over his fiefdom(领地). That is to say, the lord of the land would hold court in his castle. Those that were socially beneath the lord would come to report the affairs of the lands that they (37) _ and paid tribute to the lord. They would (38) _ disputes, handle business, feast, and enjoy festivities. In this way castles served as important social centers in medieval England. Castles also served as symbols of power. Built on prominent sites (39) _ the surrounding areas, castles constantly loomed in the background of many peasants lives and served as a daily (40) _ of the lords strength.III. Reading ComprehensionSection 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. Humans hate markedly to give workers more than they deserve;and indeed many will settle for less to compensate work equitably. But is this impulse (41) _ ? Perhaps not, says psychological scientist Marie Schafer in Germany. According to Schafer, nobody has ever looked at how young children from different (42) _ think about merit when sharing rewards. There is reason to suspect that meritocracy may be more of a Western concept and value, so she and several colleagues decided to put this to the test, studying the (43) _ of children, four to 11 years old, in three different cultures. The idea was to test how much the children valued merit. So each child was given a number of sweets equal to the total number of fish in the catch, and was told to distribute the sweets any way he or she wantedwithout adults in the room to influence them. If they valued merit, children should (44) _ the sweets according to shares of the catch. That is, if they had landed the same number of fish, they would choose to reward each one (45 ) _, but if one fared much better at fishing, rewards would also be disproportionate. In the case where they were simply given the fish, rewards should be unrelated to catch sizesince no effort was involved.(46) _matters. Thats the main finding among many from the study , as described in a forthcoming issue of the journal Psychological Science. The German children distributed the spoils of the day precisely in proportion to (47) _, even when this meant a very unbalanced distribution of rewards. By contrast, children from the two rural African forager(狩猎) societies barely took merit into consideration at all. These findings suggest that the basic notion of merit and distributive justice is far from universal in our species, and that (48) _ is culturally defined.But why? The scientists offer some (49) _ on this. It could be that in large-scale societies like Germany, a meritocracy is (50) _ for regulating transactions between people who dont know each other and may not interact again. The focus is on equitable interactions, because things wont be “evened out” in the future. In small scale societies, (51) _,most exchanges take place between people who are (52) _ with one another. It may be more important in such societies to build long-term relationships based on equityrather than to insist on equity in a single transaction. In egalitarian forager societies, such as the Haillom, (53)_ is an important leveling mechanism, (54) _ asymmetries in wealth and increasing harmony. Children may internalize these social values early on, and apply them even when the fishing trip is (55) _.41. A. unblocked B. universal C. unconscious D. unique42.

(A)We Have a Painter to Thank for YellowstoneBefore artist Thomas Moran set foot in the park, it was seen as unhappy place. After, it was marketed as a wonderland.Before Thomas Moran arrived, Yellowstone in the popular imagination was a harsh, wild place pocked with hellish geysers. After the painters work was finished, Yellowstone was established as a national park and marketed as a wonderland.In 1871 Moran and photographer William Henry Jackson had joined the first U. S. government survey of the region. For two weeks Moran filled a sketchbook with the landscapes most stunning sights. The survey results, Jacksons photos, and Morans watercolorsthe first color renderings of the areawere presented to Congress that fall. “The photographs were proof that what the artist was showing really existed,” says Eleanor Harvey, senior curator at the Smithsonian American Art Museum. In March 1872 lawmakers officially made Yellowstone a national park, the worlds first. By April, Moran had transformed some of his sketches into a 7-by-l2-foot painting. The gold- splattered valley and billowing Lower Falls of “The Grand Canyon of the Yellowstone” attracted the public. “It is too grand and wonderful for words,” declared the Ladies Repository that August, “and none can ever judge of its wonders from any engraving or photograph in mere black and white. Though Moran later painted Lake Superior, the Grand Canyon, and the Rockies, his reputation was so intertwined with Yellowstone that he took to signing his paintings “TYM,” for Thomas “Yellowstone” Moran.56. What can we know about Yellowstone according to the passage? A. It was a popular park with geysers before Thomas Moran finished transformation.B. It was an imagination of a harsh and wild place.C. It became a national park with the efforts of Moran and Jackson. D. It is an attractive grand valley.57. What does the pocked mean in the first sentence (paragraph 2)?A. Packed.B. Dotted.C. Blocked. D. Stuck.58. What are the characteristics of Thomas Morans paintings about Yellowstone Park?A. Paying attention to color rendering of paintings.B. His magnificent and wonderful paintings.C. His reputation closely linked to Yellowstone Park.D. His paintings with nothing special.59. What does the passage mainly talk about?A. The Significance of Thomas Morans paintings to Yellowstone Park.B. How Yellowstone Park is established as a National Park.C. The Great PainterThomas Moran.D. The process of Yellowstone Park being labelled as a fairyland.(B)Why UPS Trucks, (Almost) Never Turn LeftBy favoring right-hand turns at all timesunless a left is unavoidablethe carrier saves millions of gallons of fuel each year, and avoids emissions equivalent to over 20,000 passenger cars.The practice started decades ago, before computers and GPS, and is now managed by a software that conjures the most efficient route for each truck.Whats wrong with turning left?Left-hand turns are generally considered unsafe and wasteful on right-hand driving roads , such as those in the U. S.“Left-turning traffic typically has to turn against a flow of oncoming vehicles,” explains Tom Vanderbilt, author of the book Traffic: Why We drive the way we do.”“This can not only be dangerous, but makes traffic build up, unless you install a dedicated left-turn phase, which is fine but basically adds 30 or 45 seconds to everyone elses single time,” he said.A study on crash factors in intersection-related accidents from the U. S. National Highway Traffic Safety Association shows that turning left is one of the leading “critical pre-crash events” (an event that made a collision inevitable) , occurring in 22. 2 percent of crashes, as opposed to 1.2 percent for right turns. About 61 percent of crashes that occur while turning or crossing an intersection involve left turns, as opposed to just 3. 1 percent involving right turns.Left turns are also three times more likely to kill pedestrians than right ones, according to data collected by New York Citys transportation planners.The right way to save fuel“A left-hand turn is also less fuel efficient,” said Jack Levis, UPS Senior Director of Process Management, “because your cars idling (未熄火) longer, which is also not good for your vehicle. ”UPS does not ban left turns outright, says Levis: “We will make left hand turns, but not ones that are unnecessary. We dont need to go in circles all day long by making only right hand turns. We have tools analyze the number of left hand turn for each route, and we can work out which ones are avoidable.”The procedure in now incorporated in most countries around the world.To this end, the carrier created its own maps, which it says are more accurate that commercially available ones: “We can differentiate more important left-hand turns from unimportant ones. Google Maps has no concept of not making a left-hand turn, it just shows the most direct way to reach your destination. We have the ability to penalize some of those.” Levis told CNN.The system knows about parking lots, private driveways, variable speed limits and roads that are inaccessible for a truck.The software can give an undesirable left turn a penalty that adds 20 seconds to the estimated route lime. In that case, going around the block and turning always right might offset that 20-sccond penalty:“We were able to turn off left hand turns,” said Levis.Taking a longer route while still saving time and fuel might sound confusing, even to UPS drivers, according to Vanderbilt: “Ive actually been to UPSs logistics center and discussed this with their lead engineers.” he said.“A lot of individual drivers felt the new routing software was making their trips longer,but they were later proven wrong. This is the thing about traffic, its such a complex system that often the individual cannot get a sense of the overall efficiency of the system, and optimize accordingly. Its also one of the counterintuitive, slower-is-faster effects you often see in traffic.”The rule, says Levis, can also be applied to left-hand driving countries, such as Australia and the UK, where it discourages right-hand turns. 60. How much resources can UPS trucks save by avoiding turning left?A. UPS trucks will consume millions of gallons of fuel.B. The emission of UPS trucks is equivalent to that of over 2000 passenger cars.C. UPS trucks estimate to save 100,000 metric tons of C02 emission a year.D. UPS trucks estimate an increase of 6 to 8 miles per route.61. In Tom Vanderbilts View, how to Deal with the Left Turn Problem in the United States?A. Install a dedicated left turn phase.B. Traffic planners manage road conditions。C. Operators make their own traffic maps.D. National policy encourages left turn of vehicles.62. Which of the following options is NOT TRUE according to the passage?A. Its unsafe to turn left on right-hand driving roads.B. Turning left is resource-efficient on right-hand driving roads.C. Left turning is likely to cause traffic accidents.D. Left-turn is discouraged in all countries.(C)“Is data the new oil? asked proponents of big data back in 2012 in Forbes magazine. By 2016 , and the rise of big datas turbo-powered cousin deep learning, we had become more certain: “Data is the new oil,” stated Fortune.Amazons Neil Lawrence has a slightly different analogy: Data, he says, is coal. Not coal today, though, but coal in the early days of the 18th century, when Thomas Newcomen invented the steam engine. A Devonian ironmonger, Newcomen built his device to pump water out of the south wests prolific tin mines.The Problem, as Lawrence told the Re-Work conference on Deep Learning in London. was that the pump was rather more useful to those who had a lot of coal than those who didnt: it was good, but not good enough to buy coal in to run it. That was so true that the first of Newcomens steam engines wasnt built in a tin mine, but in coal works near Dudley.So why is data coal? The problem is similar: there are a lot of Newcomens in the world of deep learning. Startups like Londons Magic Pony and SwiftKey are coming up with revolutionary new ways to train machines to do impressive feats of cognition, from reconstructing facial data from grainy images to learning the writing style of an individual user to better predict which word they are going to type in a sentence.And yet, like Newcomen, their innovations are so much more useful to the people who actually have copious(丰富的) amounts of raw material to work from. And so Magic Pony is acquired by Twitter, SwiftKey is acquired by Microsoft and Lawrence himself gets hired by Amazon from the University of Sheffield, where he was based until three weeks ago. But there is a coda to the story:69 years later, James Watt made a nice tweak to the Newcomen steam engine, adding a condenser to the design. That change, Lawrence said, “made the steam engine much more efficient, and thats what trigger the industrial revolution.Whether data is oil or coal, then, theres another way the analogy holds up. a lot of work is going into trying to make sure we can do more, with less. Its not as impressive as teaching a computer to play Go or Pac-Man better than any human alive, but “data efficiency” is a crucial step if deep learning is going to move away from simply gobbling up oodles of data and spitting out the best correlations possible.“If you look at all the areas where deep learning is successful, theyre all areas where theres lots of data,” points out Lawrence. Thats great if you want to categorize images of cats, but less helpful if you want to use deep learning to diagnose rare illnesses. Its generally considered unethical to force people to become sick in order to acquire data.63. According to the passage, why data is seen as the new coal?A. It can drive the steam engine to pump water.B. It can help people make more coals.C. It can help the areas of deep learning.D. It can help cure diagnose rare illnesses.64. According to Lawrence, why big data is less helpful to diagnose rare illnesses?A. Because there is no such demand.B. Because it can only use to categorize images of cats. C. Because its unethical to acquire data by forcing people to become sick.D. Because it needs too much data. 65. Which areas are most likely to be successful in in-depth learning? A. Some small start-ups. B. Areas with large amounts of data. C. Coal and Petroleum Development Field. D. Areas for tackling rare diseases.66. According to the content of the article, which is NOT TRUE about the big data?A. We still have a lot of work to study the big data.B. It requires countless data to be collected.C. The purpose of studying big data is to save parents costs.D. “Data efficiency” is a critical step to explore more data.Section CDirections: Read the following passage. Fill in each blank with a proper sentence given in the box. Each sentence can be used only once. Note that there are two more sentences than you need. A. We weigh benefits of medications versus the complexity of adding one more drug to her crowded pill box.B. If you answered no, youre not alone.C. When your opinions are shared, you will find more potential about you.D. Your values and needs may also vary from one appointment to the next.E. The true difference relies on what you understand instead of what you see.F. A year from now after graduation, well revisit the conversation, as his goals and needs may be different.The Most Important Thing Youre Not Discussing with Your DoctorShared decision making requires you to be an active participant. Politicians and policymakers are discussing what parts of the Affordable Care Act to change and what to keep. While most of us have little control over those discussions, there is one health care topic that we can control;what we talk about with our doctor.The Institute of Medicine (IOM) released the landmark publication Crossing the Quality Chasm 15 years ago. The report proposed six aims for improvement in the U. S. health system, identifying that health care should be patient-centered,safe, effective, timely, efficient and equitable. The idea that health care should be patient-centered sounds obvious, but what does that mean? The IOM defines it as care that is “respectful of and responsive to individual patient preferences, needs, and values” and that ensures “patient values guide all clinical decisions.”For this to truly happen, doctors appointments need to cover more topics than how one is feeling and what can be done. Does your doctor know your values? _66_ Fewer than half of people report that their physician or other health care provider ask about their goals and concerns for their health and health care. Your doctor can discuss medical tests and treatments without knowing your life goals, but sharing your values and needs with your doctor makes discussions and decisions more personalized and may lead to better health.How does patient-centered care happen?In order for your health care to center around you, your doctor needs to know your values, preferences and needs. Everyone is different. (67) _As a neurologist, when Im working with a 76-year-old widow whose main goal is to remain independent in her home, we frame her care in that context. (68) _ We discuss how a walker helps her be more independent rather than less, as she can move around her home more safely.When a stressed college student comes to my office for a bothersome tremor, his preference is to avoid medications that he might forget to take or that might harm his school performance. This guides our discussion of the pros and cons of different options, including using medications but also doing nothing, an option that almost half of patients feel strongly should always be discussed. (69) _In sharing their values and goals with me, these individuals enabled a health care approach that respected their needs and also responded to their life circumstances.IV. Summary WritingDirections:Read the following passage. Summarize the main point (s) of the passage in no more than 60 words. Use your own words as far as possible.To Laugh Is HumanMost of us dont know why we laugh at some jokes and not at others. Scientists know that we are able to laugh at birth. Babies begin to laugh at three to four months of age, well before they produce their first words. What scientists are interested in is why we laugh. Scientists believe humans laugh with others primarily because it makes us feel connected with one another, which in turn gives us a sense of trust and comfort. To scientists, laughter is an unconscious reaction;consequently, when we laugh, others can be certain that it is an honest reaction, and honesty is key when building and maintaining friendships.Since laughter is seen as a social signal that we send to others, it can also help explain why it is so infectious. Studies have proven that when people see or hear something funny, they are 20 times more likely to laugh when they are with others than they are alone. Wanting to be accepted by others is part of human nature. And mirroring other peoples laughter is a way to signal to others that you feel the way they do, which makes us feel more connected with one another.Humans have not always laughed just so they can feel closer to others, however Scientists point out that this social function of laughter was born out of an even more fundamental human need. Laughter, they believe, came about because it contributed to our very survival as a species. Scientists assume that sharing laughter ensured our ancestors a higher survival rate because it led to greater cooperation between individuals. Human learned quickly that greater cooperation led to survival, and the brain in turn realized that laughing with others increased out chances of finding people to cooperate, hunt, eat, live, and eventually, survive with.V.

And they found that it took only a few weeks for the mice to develop signs of depression, such as being less active, having less interest in their favorite foods and more anxiety when placed in water. The brains of the mice also showed similar changes to what occurs in depressed people. Artificial light at night like televisions, computer screens and night lights has been linked to other negative health effects. Nighttime lighting can disturb the bodys clock and increase the risk of overweight and certain diseases. The good news is that the signs of depression in the mice went away after they went back to a regular sleep schedule. That is eight full hours of darkness at night. This means that by unplugging the electronics and closing the window curtains in your bedroom, you may be able to undo some of the harmful effects of your smartphone letting out light all night.11. What happened to the mice after they were exposed to artificial light at night for weeks?12. Which of the following will most probably disturb your bodys clock?13. What are you recommended to do at night according to the research?Questions 14 through 16 are based on the following passage.Heres the good news: global poverty has fallen by half over the past decade. But heres the bad news: 71% percent of the worlds population remain low income or poor. They live off ten dollars or less a day according to a new Pew Research Center report that looked at changes in income for 111 countries between 2001 and 2011. Unlike in America, where the middle class has been facing difficulties in recent years, some researchers say that strong economic growth in developing countries has helped shrink poverty and expand the middle class globally. Gut the report from the center disagrees, saying that a global middle class is far from reality.
