With the New Year weeks approaching, you’re looking forward to watching the splendid fireworks shows
that will welcome 2019 worldwide. Unfortunately, visually impaired and blind people can’t experience this joyful
celebration. That may change soon thanks to Feeling Fireworks, a fireworks experience invented by the Disney
Research Lab in Switzerland.
To experience the show, users stand before a large flexible screen, place their hands at the base of the screen
and move them around to feel the fireworks. Alternatively, their hands can be situated in the center of the screen,
where the initial explosions happen, and then moved across to explore other fireworks.
As the fireworks begin to explode, five nozzles(
喷嘴
) at the back of the screen start to shoot water, creating
C. Talk on the Wild Side

movement of water imitating the show. One specializes in the “blooming flower effect”, another reproduces the
“crackle” effect, and the rest take care of rockets and explosions. A computer controls the timing, and Feeling
Fireworks allows users to experience fireworks similar to those in the sky.
Paul Beardsley, who led the research team, says, “We want blind, visually impaired, and sighted people to all
try Feeling Fireworks, and to have a shared and enjoyable memory of a fireworks evening.” And the screen
displaying the vivid images created by water makes it fun for everyone.
The low-cost technology is still in its early stage, with only a 66 percent success rate. However, the team
plans to continue improving the experience and believes the day when everyone will be able to enjoy the thrill of
fireworks shows is not far. When ready, Feeling Fireworks will initially be available only at the Disney theme
parks, and then hopefully, at fireworks shows worldwide.
24. How will Feeling Fireworks help blind people?
A. By improving their sight to see fireworks.
B. By playing the sound of fireworks for them.
C. By enabling them to feel the fireworks by hand.
D. By planting a chip into their brains to see things.
25. Why is water sprayed at the back of the screen?
A. To create the effect of fireworks.
C. To protect visitors from being hurt.




B. To keep the screen clean of dust.
D. To lead the way for the fireworks.
26. What does the underlined word “it” (in Para. 4) refer to?
A. Staying in company with blind people.
C. Finding the initial firework explosions.


B. Watching the nozzles behind the screen.
D. Enjoying the grand fireworks show.
27. What can we infer about Feeling Fireworks technology?
A. Research into the technology cost a lot.
B. It needs improvements for a good success rate.
C. It has been put to use at the Disney theme parks
D. It’s expected to replace real fireworks one day.

What Theresa Loe is doing proves that a large farm isn’t a prerequisite for a modern grow-your-own lifestyle.
On a mere 110 of an acre in Los Angeles, Loe and her family grow, can(
装罐
) and preserve much of the food
they consume.

Loe is a master food preserver, gardener and canning expert. She also operates a website, where she shares
her tips and recipes, with the goal of demonstrating that everyone has the ability to control what’s on their plate.
Loe initially went to school to become an engineer, but she quickly learned that her enthusiasm was mainly
about growing and preparing her own food. “got into cooking my own food and started growing my own herbs(
香
草
) and foods for that fresh flavor,” she said. Engineer by day, Loe learned cooking at night school. She ultimately
purchased a small piece of land with her husband and began growing their own foods.
“I teach people how to live farm-fresh without a farm,” Loe said. Through her website Loe emphasizes that
‘‘anybody can do this anywhere.” Got an apartment with a balcony(
阳台
)? Plant some herbs. A window? Perfect
spot for growing. Start with herbs, she recommends, because “they’re very forgiving”. Just a little of the herbs
“can take your regular cooking to a whole new level,” she added. “I think it’s a great place to start.” Then? Try
growing something from a seed, she said, like a tomato or some tea.
Canning is a natural extension of the planting she does. With every planted food, Loe noted, there’s a
moment when it’s bursting with its absolute peak flavor. “I try and keep it in a time capsule in a canning jar,” Loe
said. “Canning for me is about knowing what’s in your food, knowing where it comes from.”
In addition to being more in touch with the food she’s eating, another joy comes from passing this knowledge
and this desire for good food to her children: “Influencing them and telling them your opinion on not only being
careful what we eat but understanding the bigger picture,” she said, “that if we don’t take care of the earth, no one
will.”
28. The underlined word “prerequisite” (Para. 1) is closest in meaning to“ ”.
A. recipe B. substitute C. requirement D. challenge
29. Why does Loe suggest starting with herbs?
A. They are used daily.





B. They are easy to grow.
D. They can be eaten uncooked. C. They can grow very tall
30. According to Loe, what is the benefit of canning her planted foods?
A. It can preserve their best flavor.
C. It can better her cooking skills.


B. It can promote her online sales.
D. It can improve their nutrition.
31. What is the “the bigger picture” (Para. 6) that Loe wishes her children to understand?
A. The knowledge about good food. B. The way to live a grow-our-own life.
C. The joy of getting in touch with foods. D. The responsibility to protect our earth
D

The study on facial recognition technology(FRT) began in the late 1960s. In the late 1990s, FRT began to
enter the market gradually but its accuracy had a long way to go though it cost governments a lot, which made it
unpopular at that time. FRT attracted wide attention after September, 11, 2001 and it has been widely used now.
Recognizing the potential abuse in the use of FRT, Microsoft is asking the U. S. government to study facial
recognition(FR) and keep a dose watch over its use. Personally, I hold this is a positive job that Microsoft is doing.
FRT has grown to be so powerful. It can be used to identify people in photos, video feeds, and of course in person,
without their permission.
Mr. Bradford Smith, Microsoft’s president, suggests that “governments around the world should examine
commercial uses of FR.” The European Union(EU) is ahead of others in this aspect, thanks to its tough new data
protection law, which forbids companies to gather the biometric(
生物特征
) data needed for facial recognition
without first obtaining users, permission.
San Francisco has become the first city in the USA to forbid using facial recognition software. And Oakland
discussed a similar rule last month. San Francisco has said that police and other public departments cannot use
FRT. San Francisco already uses surveillance(
监视
) cameras for reading car number plates and police officers
wear body cameras. San Francisco official Aaron Peskin said FRT was like “Big Brother” from the book 1984 by
George Orwell. The phrase Big Brother is now used to describe attempts to increase surveillance and “spy” on
citizens. Mr. Peskin said, “We can have good policing without being a police state.”
32. Why was FRT unpopular in the 1990s?
A. It was inconvenient to use.
C. Its accuracy needed improving.




B. It was expensive to produce.
D. Its roles weren’t fully found out.
33. What is the author’s attitude to Microsoft’s advice on the management of FRT?
A. He says yes to it.





B. He is doubtful of it.
D. He can’t understand it. C. He feels worried about it.
34. Who has done the most work to make people use FRT in a right way?
A. San Francisco. B. Microsoft. C. Oakland. D. The EU.
35. What would be the best title for the text?
A. Big Brother Technology
C. Strong Protection of FRT






B. Different Uses of FRT
D. FR Data’s Disadvantages

It’s often said that your parents’ job is to make sure that one day you no longer need them. And that’s
certainly the case by the time you have kids of your own. However, this is precisely the time when your parents
start to need you. How do you talk to your aging parents about their health? 36 , but these tips make it easier.
Before a conversation, you had better establish yourself as a friend, not an enemy. Always start with an “I”
statement, not a “you should” statement. 37 .
Scientists recommend beginning a conversation about something you’re doing—taking up yoga to stay slim,
for instance. 38 . And you can even have her commit to doing it with you. When you’re a friend day-to- day,
your parents will trust you and be able to depend on you during a health crisis.
39 . Start by equipping them with a smartphone that’s designed for seniors. Staying in close phone
contact will keep you informed of any arising health issues. It will help you pick up on faults in their memory, too.
Your parents are your parents until they’re gone. Do not treat them like children. Even if you find that there’s
an emergency going on, you can make suggestions, but they have the right to make decisions, especially if there’s
no cognitive(
认知的
) disorder. 40 , helping your parents in their later years is the least you can do. With the
proper measures and technology, it can get easier and feel even more rewarding.
A. Just as they have been there for you
B. It may not be a simple conversation to have
C. It can mean changes in your parents’ schedule
D. Scientists also suggests phoning your parents regularly
E. That can lead to asking your mom what she’s doing to keep fit
F. Talk about affairs about yourself first, then extend them to your parents
G. Scientists recommend opening the door to dialogue instead of calling them

This year marked my five-year violin anniversary. Five years ago I entered a music shop and asked, “Do you
41 violin lessons?” I was standing in a room filled with beautiful 42 and felt like a stranger in a new land.
I had little 43 in playing the violin although I had loved violin music for years. I wanted to learn to play it at
that moment.
The music shop signed me up for 44 and it soon became clear to me how 45 it was for a

novice(
新手
) to learn to play the violin. I once watched a skilled violinist play and it looked simple. Actually, it
was more difficult than I had expected. Little did I know there was nothing natural about the 46 in which
one held the instrument. There was no margin(
偏差
) for error—a 47 misplaced finger sends a note out of
tune. If I had known how challenging it would be, I might never have started. However, my love for violin music
48 all the difficulties. Though it was a big challenge, I made it at last. I won first place in the violin contest in
our city last year.
49 the past five years with my violin, I realized I’ve learned much more than how to make music. I
believe mistakes are not 50 . They are pointing you toward where to 51 your attention. Besides, you’d
better not 52 yourself with others. If you find you’re not as good as someone, you will feel depressed. If so,
remember 53 you started. For me, it was because I loved the violin music and it made me happy. What’s
more, remember that developing a new skill 54 repetition. The more you practice, the more you learn.
Progress happens even when you are taking 55 baby steps (like practicing for a few minutes at a time). Take
the time to celebrate your successes. When you 56 something you’ve been working on, acknowledge it with
a “Yay me! Look what I did!” Give yourself rewards for what you’ve learned and enjoy your 57 , which will
lead you to the next accomplishment. 58 you need to persevere(
坚持不懈
) no matter how difficult the
situation is. I firmly believe these lessons 59 anything we take on.
Learning something new isn’t always easy. Sometimes it’s more demanding than you expected, but you are
richly 60 in more ways than you could have imagined for the trying.

书面表达（满分25分）
Dear Peter,
How are you doing? Thanks for sharing with me your experience of learning China’s four great classic
novels and your personal understanding. There is no denying that so many fantastic characters have been created
by ancient Chinese novelists. I am glad to tell you about my favorite character, Sun Wukong in Journey to the
West.
In the novel, Sun Wukong, also known as the Monkey King, is a monkey born from a stone who acquires
supernatural powers through Taoist practices, from which he knows the 72 transformations, allowing him to
transform into various animals and objects. That is the most important reason why I consider Sun as my favorite
character.
Classics open up a window to different worlds and different cultures. I do hope that Chinese classic literature
helps you understand China better.
Yours,
Li Hua
