Migrant workers
In the past
twenty years, there has been an increasing
tendency for workers to move from one
country
to another. While some newly independent countries
have 41 most jobs to local
people, others
have attracted and welcomed migrant workers. This
is particularly the 42 in
the Middle East,
where increased oil incomes have enabled many
countries to 43 outsiders
to improve local
facilities. Thus the Middle East has attracted
oil-workers from the USA and
Europe. It has
brought in construction workers and technicians
from many countries, including
South Korea and
Japan.
In view of the 44 living and
working conditions in the Middle East, surprising
it is not
that the pay is high to attract
suitable workers. Many engineers and technicians
can earn at least
twice as much money in the
Middle East as they can in their own country, and
this is a 45
attraction. An allied (联合的)
benefit is the low 46 or a complete lack of
it. This 47
the amount of pay received by
visiting workers and is very popular with them.
Sometimes a disadvantage has a compensating
(补偿的) advantage. 48 , the difficult
living
conditions often lead to increased friendship when
workers have to depend on each other
for
safety and comfort. 49 , many migrant workers
can save large sum of money partly
because of
the lack of entertainment facilities. The work is
often complex and full of problems but
this
merely presents greater 50 to engineers who
prefer to find solutions to problems rather
than do 51 work in their home country.
One major problem which affects migrant
workers in the Middle East is that their jobs are
52 ones. They are nearly always on
contract, so it is not easy for them to plan ahead
with
great confidence. This is to be 53
since no country welcomes a large number of
foreign
workers as permanent residents. In any
case, migrant workers accept this 54 , along
with
others, because of the 55 financial
benefits which they receive.

C and D. Fill in each
blank with the word or phrase that best fits the
context.
Could Buying Paintings Make You Rich?
Is investing in paintings a good way to get
rich fast? And how should you invest in art?
“With extreme 41 ” is the advice of
Patrick Connolly, a financial adviser. “We don’t
42 our customers to invest in art because
the downsides are greater than the upsides. It
doesn't produce income or earnings. What you
43 is exclusively based on supply and
demand, and there are big movements upwards or
downwards if there are changes in the economic
environment,” he said.
To invest in art as
a true investment, you need a starting fund of at
least $$5,000. But it’s not
just about having
enough 44 to buy the painting in the first
place. Expensive works of art are
often stored
in protective boxes complete with detectors to
monitor humidity and temperature
levels, and
to protect them from sun damage or other 45
such as a spilled cup of coffee. And
if you do
put it on your wall, then your insurance costs are
likely to be high. If word gets out that
you
have expensive art hanging on your wall, then
you're likely to be a 46 for thieves.
Art is also not a regulated investment so when
things go wrong – for example, an artwork
turns out to be a fraud （赝品）– then investors
cannot fall back on 47 for any repayment.
Of course given the current environment of low
interest rates, that's still a(n) 48
return
than many savings accounts will give you. As art
has no association to the stock market, it
means paintings can 49 in value even when
the market crashes, making it a good option for
investment 50 .
It is reported that
after a decrease in the global art market
throughout 2016, auction（拍卖）
sales 51 in
the first six months of 2017. Yet you don't
necessarily have to be super-wealthy
to invest
in art. There are a growing number of art fairs
and online marketplaces aimed at buyers
with a
more 52 budget. Most art industry experts
suggest that you buy a piece of art because
3
上海市各区2018届高三英语一模试卷分类汇编：完形填空
you like it, not because you want to get rich.
The most 53 approach is probably to buy
something you like and can 54 and, be
prepared to keep it just for your own pleasure. If
it
goes up in value that should be just a(n)
55 benefit.

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.
When I was a child of seven years old, my
friends, on a holiday, filled my pocket with
coppers. I went at once to a shop where they
sold toys for children. Being 41 with the
sound of a whistle that I had seen by the way,
in the hands of another boy, I handed over all my
money for one. I then came home, and went
whistling all over the house, much pleased with my
whistle, but 42 all the family. My
brothers and sisters and cousins, when I told of
the
43 I had made, said I had given
four times as much as the whistle was worth. They
put me in mind of what good things I might
have bought with the rest of the money, and
laughed
at me so much for my folly that I
cried with vexation( 烦 恼 ). Thinking about the
matter gave
me more 44 than the
whistle gave me pleasure.
45 , this was
afterwards of use to me, for the impression
continued on my mind, so
that often, when I
was 46 to buy something I did not need,
I said to myself,
“Don’t give too much for the
whistle, ” and I saved my money. As I grew up,
came into the
world, and 47 the actions
of men, I thought I met with many, very many, who
“gave too
much for the whistle.”
If I knew
a miser（守财奴）who 48 every kind of
comfortable living, all the pleasure
of doing
good to others, all the esteem of his fellow
citizens and the joys of friendship, 49
gathering and keeping wealth--- “Poor man,”
said I, “ you pay too dear for your whistle.” When
I
met a man of pleasure, who did not try to
improve his mind or his fortune but _____50
devoted himself to having a good time, perhaps
neglecting his health, “ Mistaken man, you are
providing 51 for yourself, instead
of pleasure; you are paying too dear for your
whistle.” If I saw someone fond of 52
who has fine clothes, fine houses, fine
furniture, fine earrings, all above his
53 , and for which he had run into debt, and
ends his career in a prison. “Alas,” said I,
“he has paid dear, very dear, for his whistle.”
54 , the miseries of mankind are largely
due to their puffing a(n) 55 value
on things --- to giving “too much for their
whistle.”

Eating fast food makes people
impatient even when they are not short of time, a

claims. Students in the study became
__(41)__ even when shown the logo of burger chain
McDonald’s so quickly on screen that they
could not __(42)__ it.
Researchers say that
daily exposure to fast food brands could have a

people hurry regardless of whether they are pushed
for time. They
conclude: “Our experiments
suggest that the __(44)__ goal of saving time
embedded in fast food
may have the unexpected
consequence of causing hurriedness and
impatience.”
Thinking about fast food
increases __(45)__ for time-saving products. “More

found that the mere exposure to
fast food symbols reduced people’s willingness to
save and led
them to prefer immediate __(47)__
over greater future return, finally harming their

Student volunteers
were quickly shown six logos from fast-food chains
— McDonald’s,
Burger King, KFC, Subway,
Wendy’s and Taco Bell. They could not consciously
see what they
were but the subliminal effect
was __(48)__. Their reading speed was measured
before and after
seeing the logos and it was
significantly faster afterwards. Participants also
preferred time-saving
products like three-in-

versions after seeing the logos.
When asked
whether they would accept a small sum of money
immediately or a larger amount in
a week’s
time, they again chose __(50)__ reward after being
exposed to the brands.
Researcher Chen-Bo
Zhong, assistant professor of organizational
behaviour at Canada’s

said: “Fast food represents a culture of time

Artists have long claimed alcohol and
other drugs as inspiration for their creativity.
But is
there really a(n) 41 between
intoxication（醉酒）and inspiration? A recent study
published in
Consciousness and Cognition
explored the effects of moderate drunkenness on
people’s creativity.
The authors suggest that
alcohol’s well-known effect in 42 executive
function may be helpful
for these types of
creation problems.” Sometimes a reduced ability to
43 one’s attention can
have positive
implications for select cognitive tasks.” they
write.
The findings raise the question of
whether drugs that 44 attention and focus, in
particular,
stimulants（兴奋剂）, would have the
opposite effect on creative thinking 45 , very
little
research has been done on the issue,
and what results exist so far have been mixed. The
outcomes
may well vary according to individual
46 to the drugs. 47 , some research has found
that
while stimulants can 48 test
performance for those who are less intelligent,
for the smartest
folks, the drugs can have the
opposite effect.
If less executive function is
linked to more creativity, this may also explain
why artists,
writers and musicians appear to
be more 49 to have an addiction. Perhaps
creative people are
more likely than others to
be 50 to drugs in the first place, as a possible
source of inspiration.
And then, if reduced
executive function is 51 in part for their
initial talent, this, too, could
make them
more easily influenced by 52 once they start
using. Having less executive control
before
you even take drugs means you’ll have less ability
to stop once you start.
Whatever the real
relationship between drunkenness, addiction and
art, the authors 53 that
their study
findings don’t give people 54 to get drunk to
“inspire the muse（冥想）” Co-author
Jennifer
Wiley, associate professor of psychology at the
University of Illinois at Chicago, told the
British Psychological Society’s Research
Digest.” We tested what happens when people are
slightly drunk-not when people drank to 55 .
There could be no argument from these findings
that drinking excessively would have the same
effects.”

The sights, sounds, and smells
of the modern marketplace are rarely accidental.
More likely,
they are tools of an evolving
strategy of psychological marketing called
“sensory marketing” to
create an emotional
association to a(n) ___41___ product or brand.
By relating to people in a far more
___42___way through everyone’s own senses,
sensory
marketing is able to affect people in
a way that traditional mass marketing cannot.
Traditional marketing believes that consumers
will systematically consider___43___ product
factors like price, features, and utility.
Sensory marketing, by contrast, seeks to resort to
the
consumer's life experiences and feelings.
Sensory marketing believes that people, as
consumers,
will act according to their
emotional urge more than to their ___44___
reasoning. In this way, an
effective sensory
marketing effort can result in consumers choosing
to buy a lovely but expensive
product, rather
than a plain but cheap ___45___.
In the past,
communications with customers were mainly
monologues — companies just

consumers. Then they evolved into dialogues, with
customers providing ___46___.
Now they’re
becoming multidimensional conversations, with
products finding their own voices
and
consumers responding ___47___ to them.
Based
on the implied messages received through five
senses, consumers, without noticing it,
tend
to apply human-like personalities to brands,
leading to intimate relationship and, hopefully
for the brands, persistent ___48___. And
that’s the very thing brands are dying to foster
in
customers rather than instant trend or
profits. Most brands are considered to have
either
tend to form ___50___
relationships with sincere brands than with
exciting ones. This explains the
relatively
enduring history of the “Sincere Brands”

sight is considered the most important of all

In other words, no aspect of a

Brand acceptance is linked
closely with the appropriateness of the colors on
the brand—does the
color ___54___ the product

Stay out of the Sun to Look Young
Forget drinking countless glasses of water or
getting your beauty sleep. The secret of looking
young is simply to stay out of the sun. A
study of hundreds of women has revealed that those
who
avoided the sun’s rays looked up to 20
years younger than they actually are.
However,
other supposed rules for a youthful complexion
(肤色), from drinking lots of water
to sleeping
well and exercising regularly, failed to 41
the hands of time. Only keeping out of
the
sun, and wearing sunscreen when this wasn’t
possible, made a 42 , the American
Academy
of Dermatology’s annual conference will hear
today. The interesting 43 comes
from a
study of 231 women of all ages who were quizzed
about their lives, including whether they
were
sun-lovers. When researchers from Massachusetts
General Hospital in the US –
commissioned by
skincare firm Olay – guessed how old the women
were, they found those who
44 in the sun
tended to have aged more slowly. A lucky four had
so few wrinkles and 45
spots, and such a
fresh complexion, that they appeared to be a full
two decades younger than they
really were.
Researcher Dr Alexa Kimball, a professor of
dermatology (皮肤医学), said the 46
advice
that we drink lots of water to stay healthy is
actually a myth (谬见), and the body is ‘pretty
good’ at judging how much we need.
Previous research by the British Nutrition
Foundation reached a 47 conclusion. Experts
there said: ‘Just drinking water for the sake
of drinking water really has no effect on
improving the
appearance of skin.’ It isn’t
clear why the women who 48 well didn’t have
younger-looking
skin. But it may be that the
question they were asked was too 49 and didn’t
take into
account their long-term sleep
patterns.
A second study, also by Olay,
suggested that low-level day to day exposure to
the sun is
more ageing than 50 , intense
exposure. Finally, DNA examination of tiny samples
of the
17
上海市各区2018届高三英语一模试卷分类汇编：完形填空
women’s skin helped understand the 51 done
by the sun. A gene called CDKN2A was more
active in facial skin that is exposed to the
elements than in samples taken from the bottoms.
This
gene was also more active in women who
said they loved the 52 – and in those who
looked
older. Dr Kimball said CDKN2A activity
is a 53 that a cell is ‘tired out’ and urged
women
should protect their skin year round and
not just when on a beach holiday.
Dr Frauke
Neuser, principal scientist at Olay, which has
used the 54 to develop its
latest face
creams, said: ‘This research gives us a detailed
picture of the effect of sun exposure on
skin
ageing and illustrate the importance of protection
on a 55 basis.’

Depression: Second Biggest Cause of Disability
in the World
Depression is the second most
common cause of disability worldwide after back
pain,
according to a review of research. The
disease must be treated as a global public health
41 ,
experts report in the journal PLOS
Medicine. The study 42 clinical depression
with more
than 200 other diseases and injuries
as a cause of disability. Globally, only a small
proportion of
patients have 43 to
treatment, the World Health Organization says.
Depression was 44 at number two as a
global cause of disability, but its impact
varies in different countries and regions.
45 , rates of major depression were highest in
Afghanistan and lowest in Japan. In the UK,
depression was rated at number three 46
years lived with a disability.
Dr. Alize
Ferrari from the University of Queensland’s School
of Population Health led the
study.
“Depression is a big problem and we 47 need
to pay more attention to it than we
are now,”
she told BBC News. There’s still more work to be
done in arousing awareness of the
disease and
also in 48 successful ways of treating it.
“The burden is different between countries, so
it tends to be higher in low and middle income
countries and 49 in high income countries.”
Policy-makers had made an effort to bring
depression
to the forefront, but there was a
lot more work to be done, she added. “There’s lots
of stigma (病
症) we know 50 with mental
health,” she explained.
“What one person
recognizes as disabling might be different to
another person and might be
different across
countries as well. There are lots of cultural 51
and interpretations that come
in place, which
makes it all the more important to 52
awareness of the size of the problem
and also
signs and how to 53 it.”
The data — for
the year 2010 — follows similar studies in 1990
and 2000 looking at the
global burden of
depression.
Commenting on the study, Dr.
Daniel Chisholm, a health economist at the
department for

AlphaGo has struck again,
defeating Ke Jie, the world’s number one Go
player, 3-0. After his
defeat, the young
Chinese prodigy said AlphaGo sees the ___41___ of
Go while he could only see
a small area around
him. This win, coupled with last year’s victory
over Lee Se-dol, shines a light
on the awe-
inspiring ___42___ of technology and places
AlphaGo among the greatest Artificial
Intelligence (AI) systems created to date.
The AI industry is certainly making great
advancements, constantly surprising the public
with new and interesting tools and making life
___43___. Twenty years ago, just connecting to the
Internet was a ___44___. Now, we can do just
about anything on our phones, from online banking
to ___45___ shows. The shifting sands of
technology have placed so many paths in front of
humanity that it is hard to ___46___ even the
immediate future.
We may talk about how AI can
make our lives better, but we also consider the
risks. Many
stories and films ___47___ around
the theme of AI vs. human. One that comes to my
mind now is
The Terminator. The film is about
an AI system called Skynet, which was ___48___ to
protect
humans. What the programmers did not
expect was that Skynet began to think. It came to
the
conclusion that humans were a danger to
its existence, so it started a global nuclear war
and tried
to “___49___” humanity.
AlphaGo’s recent achievements highlight the
___50___ that technology and AI can bring
about. They also serve to remind us of the
___51___ and risks we may not have had time to
think
about. Some of us used to ___52___ the
possibility of creating an actual “thinking” AI
system, or
believe that humans will always be
able to ___53___ an AI system, but certain facts
have now
been placed in front of us. All
that’s left to be done is to ___54___ the actual
“thinking” part of
advanced AI systems like
AlphaGo to more fields. Once that happens, human
beings will be pretty

not fully understand the risks of AI systems, we
might be flying too

The notion of building brand
personality is promoted by Starbucks as a part of
company
culture to embed meaning in their
products and thus attract more customers.
Starbucks literally changed the definition of
“a good cup of coffee”. For Starbucks, the brand
had three elements: coffee, 41 and
stores. Strict control over the quality and
processing of
the beans 42 that the
coffee would be of the highest possible quality.
Outstanding store
personnel were employed and
trained in coffee knowledge and 43 service.
Store design,
atmosphere and aroma (浓香) all
44 the “Starbucks Experience”.
Almost all
Starbucks stores were corporately owned and
controlled. Starbucks prided itself
on the
“Starbucks Experience”, 45 coffee to provide
a unique experience for its
customers.
46 those traditional coffee houses providing
you with the grab-and-go service,
Starbucks
provides you with more than coffee. You get great
people, first-rate music, a
comfortable and
upbeat meeting place, and 47 advice on
brewing excellent coffee at
home. At home
you’re part of a family. At work you’re part of a
company. And somewhere in
between is a place
where you can sit back and be yourself. That’s
what a Starbucks store has been
48 to
creating for its customers — a kind of “third
place” where they can 49 , reflect,
read,
chat or listen.
The green Starbucks logo is a
mermaid that looks like the end of the double
image of the sea.
It was designed by Terry
Heckler, who got the 50 from the wooden
statue of the sea.
Mermaid logo also 51
original and modern meanings: her face is very
simple, but with
modern abstract forms of
packaging; the middle is black and white, the only
color on the outside
surrounded by a circle.
Starbucks makes the typical American culture
gradually broken down into elements of
52 :
the visual warmth, hearing the way, smelling the
aroma of coffee and so on. Just think,
through
the huge glass windows, watching the crowded

which is in line with the “Yapi”, the feeling

But the

although it’s great coffee. Coffee is

an emotional and cultural level of
consumption.

Travel, a home coming tour
In

of___41___ but also “character-
building”，
“defining” and potentially “career-

Most of the people I know here at
university ___42__ the desire to travel and escape
the stress

as UK students, we can blame our addiction to
international
travel simply on a stressful

reasoning behind our use of golden
Cotswold
stone, which sounds dull for most people. As a

this___54___to new locations is seen as tremendous
