The British psychoanalyst John
Bowlby maintains that separation from the parents
during
the sensitive “attachment” period from
birth to three may influence a child’s personality
and lead
to emotional problems in later life.
Some people have drawn the conclusion from
Bowlby’s work
(21) _________ children should
not be sent to day care before the age of three
because of the
parental separation (22)
_________ involves, and many people do believe
this. But there are also
arguments (23)
_________ such a strong conclusion.
Firstly,
experts point out that the isolated love affair
between children and parents (24)
_________
(find) in modern societies does not usually exist
in traditional societies. For example,
in some
tribal societies, such as the Ngoni, the father
and mother of a child did not raise their
infant alone – far from it. Secondly, common
sense tells us that day care would not be so
widespread today (25) _________ parents and
care-takers found children had problems with it.
Statistical studies of this kind have not yet
been carried out, and they have regularly reported
that day care had a slightly positive effect
on children’s development. But tests (26)
________ have been used to measure this
development are not widely enough accepted to
settle
the issue.
But Bowlby’s analysis
raises the possibility that early day care has
delayed effects. The
possibility that such
care might lead to, say, more mental illness or
crime 15 or 20 years later can
only be
explored by the use of statistics. Whatever the
long-term effects, parents sometimes find
the
immediate effects difficult (27) _________
(deal) with. Children under three are
likely
to protest at (28) _________ (leave) their parents
and show unhappiness. At the age of
three or
three and a half almost all children find the
change to nursery easy, and this is
undoubtedly (29) _________ more and more
parents make use of child care at this time. The
matter, then, is far from clear-cut, though
experience and available evidence (30) _________
(indicate) early care is reasonable for
infants.

First Aid: Difference
between Death and Life
First aid is emergency
care for a victim of sudden illness or injury
until more skillful medical
treatment is
available. It may save a life or improve certain
___31___ signs including pulse,
temperature,
and breathing. First aid must be ___32___ as
quickly as possible. In the case of the
critically injured, a few minutes can make the
difference between complete recovery and loss of
life.
First-aid ___33___ depend upon a
victim’s needs and the provider’s level of
knowledge and
skill. Knowing what not to do in
an emergency is as important as knowing what to
do. For
example, ___34___ moving a person with
a neck injury can lead to permanent health
problems.
Despite the variety of injuries
possible, several ___35___ of first aid apply to
all emergencies.
The first step is to call for
professional medical help. The victim, if
conscious, should be reassured
3
H.
original I. preexisting J. principles K. vital
that medical aid has been
requested, and asked for permission to provide any
first aid. Next,
___36___ the scene, asking
other people or the injured person’s family or
friends about details of
the injury or
illness, any care that may have already been
given, and ___37___ conditions such as
heart
trouble. Unless the accident scene becomes unsafe
or the victim may suffer further injury,
do
not move the victim.
First aid requires rapid
assessment of victims to determine whether
___38___ conditions
exist. One method for
___39___ a victim’s condition is known by the
acronym ABC, which stands
for:
A –
Airway: is it open and clear?
B – Breathing:
is the person breathing? Look, listen and feel for
breathing.
C – Circulation: is there a pulse?
Is the person bleeding ___40___? Check skin color
and
temperature for
additional
indications of circulation problems.

Reading Comprehension
Section A
Directions: 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.
Animal Rights
Every conscious being has
interests that should be respected. No being who
is conscious of
being alive should be devalued
to thinghood, dominated, and used as a resource or
___41___.
The key point of the idea known as
animal rights is a movement to extend moral
consideration to
all ___42___ beings. Nobody
should have to demonstrate a specific level of
intelligence or be
judged beautiful to be
given moral consideration. No being should have to
be useful to humanity
or capable of accepting
“duties” in order to be extended moral
consideration. ___43___, what
other animals
need from us is being free from duties to us.
Animal rights is about letting animals live on
their own terms. It can be written into our
laws, but is not an actual list or bill of
rights as we have for human society. It begins
with our
promises not to act like ___44___ of
others. Animal rights is about justice ─ treating
animals
fairly.
Why is animal rights ___45
___? It is because we humans often act as though
we are the
only beings on the planet. Although
we depend on other animals for our very survival,
humans
are the only animals that have upset
the balance of nature. There are lots of ways that
humans
___46___ animals. We domesticate them
and use them for food, even though our nutritional
needs can be completely supplied by a(n)
___47___ diet. Although other materials are
available,
we use animal’s skin and other body
parts for clothing, furs, hats, boots, jewellery
and even pet
toys. Humans can talk about it
but animals cannot. All animals wish to experience
life in its
fullness. Unlike many animals who
have to kill to survive, humans do not. Why should
humans
cause ___48___ to other beings when
it’s not necessary?
As we do, animals protect
their children; they feel fear; they warn each
other of dangers;
they play. We might differ
from other animals in some ways, but that doesn’t
give us the right to
___49___ them down, take
their lands, pollute their waters, or use them for
our conveniences.
4
Animals
also experience pain and it’s not difficult to
observe ___50___ of pain in the way a
conscious being reacts to it. We take
advantage, cause distress, and act ___51___ when
we use
animals for amusement. Lots of pets are
___52___ on the streets when their owners no
longer
find it convenient or affordable to
keep or care for them.
Whether we admit it or
not, it’s a prejudice to think we are ___53___ to
animals and that it
is our right to control
them, which can only make people act mean, hateful
or neglectful.
However, each of us has within
us the power to ___54___. We can adopt a different
attitude, one
that reshape our destiny. This
will have wonderful effects on the planet’s other
communities, for
life is ___55___ avoiding
suffering. It is interacting, singing, pursuing
joy. We humans can learn to
live responsibly,
with respect, kindness and love.

Directions: Read the
following three passages. Each passage is followed
by several questions or
unfinished statements.
For each of them there are four choices marked A,
B, C and D. Choose the
one that fits best
according to the information given in the passage
you have read.
(A)
①Did English
football finally find a new star? At the age of
19, Theo Walcott came onto the
scene by
scoring a hat-trick for England in a 4-1 victory
over Croatia in 2010 World Cup.
②Walcott’s
lightning speed and accurate shooting turned the
teenager into an overnight
star. Many thought
he was a new dawn for the England team. He was
building his fame for his
fast pace, with
former Barcelona manager Pep declaring that “you
would need a gun to stop
him.” FIFA World
Player of the Year winner Lionel Messi once also
described Walcott as “one of
the most
dangerous players I have ever played against.” In
addition to his speed, Walcott also
possessed
good balance, movement and technique.
5
③It was symbolic that Walcott’s
goals came from the right-wing. The position had
been
played by “golden boy” David Beckham for
more than 10 years. No longer were the cheers for
Beckham. The fans’ hopes now rested on the
shoulders of Walcott.
④Walcott was born in
London to a black British Jamaican father and a
white English mother.
He grew up as a
Liverpool fan due to his father’s support of
Liverpool. When Chelsea asked him to
be a ball
boy, he used the opportunity to meet his Liverpool
idols.
⑤The teenager’s rise to fame was not
completely out of blue. He was part of England’s
World Cup team in 2006, but he did not get to
play a match. He also spent over two years at
Arsenal, where he was fast becoming a key
player.
⑥But that year, few were expecting the
wonderful performance between England and
Croatia. The teenager was the first England
player to score three goals in a game since
Michael
Owen did so seven years before.
⑦Although England was full of superstars, they
had a poor record in major tournaments.
But
things were beginning to change. The win against
Croatia was sweet revenge. Croatia was the
team which knocked England out of Euro 2008.
⑧Walcott’s wonderful performance lighted
England fans’ hope for World Cup victory in
South Africa in 2010, since England had not
lifted the cup since 1966.
⑨But before England
fans got too carried away, our reflection on the
past history told us
that placing a country’s
hopes on one teenager was dangerous.
56.
Which of the following CANNOT account for
Walcott’s increasing fame?
A. Fast speed.
B. Masterly skills.
D. Unusual family. C.
Positional sense.
57. Why did the author
mention David Beckham in the 3
rd
paragraph?
A. To show that England football
once had a glorious history.
B. To illustrate
that Walcott could be entitled “golden boy”.
C. To indicate that England fans were
difficult to please.
D. To imply that people
had high expectation on Walcott.
58. In the
5
th
paragraph, the underlined phrase “out
of blue” most probably means “________”.
A.
impolite
B. unexpected
C. impossible D.
unintentional
59. What is the author most
likely to agree with?
A. Walcott might not
live up to fans’ expectation.
B. Walcott might
transfer from Arsenal to Liverpool.
C.
Croatia might change the history of the World Cup.
D. England might be defeated by the opponent
in the next round.

①What does it say about the
future of meat when the country’s largest
processor of chicken,
pork, and beef buys a
stake(股份) in a start-up that aims to “perfectly
replace animal protein with
plant protein”?
②Tyson Foods announced this week that it
purchased a 5 percent stake in Beyond Meat, the
Southern California-based food-tech start-up
that made headlines earlier this year with its
veggie
burger that reportedly cooks and tastes
like real beef.
③To be sure, Beyond Meat’s
meatless creations have yet to take the country by
storm.
Although the 100 percent plant-based
burgers have achieved plenty of positive press
since they
appeared for the first time in May,
so far they’re only available at Whole Foods
stores in seven
states. Even though the
company’s “chicken” strips, “beef” pies, and
meatless frozen dinners are
available
nationwide, Beyond Meat is hardly a household
name.
④That may be what makes the news of
Tyson’s investment all the more noteworthy. While
the two companies declined to give details
about the deal, it’s doubtful that Tyson’s 5
percent
stake made much of dent(凹陷) in the
meat giant’s coffers(金库). The company posted $$41.4
billion in sales last year; prior to the deal
with Tyson, Beyond Meat had reportedly raised $$64
million in project capital funding—about what
Tyson earns before lunch on any given day.
⑤Tyson is doing pretty great. The company
reported record third-quarter earnings per share
in August and says that it expects overall
meat production to increase 2 to 3 percent during
the
next financial year. But like a big oil
company shelling out cash to invest in wind power,
Tyson’s
toe-in-the-water move to team up with
a start-up devoted to bringing more plant-based
protein
to American dinner tables seems to
suggest the meat industry is starting to see which
way the
winds are blowing.
⑥Sales of
plant-based protein, which totaled an estimated $$5
billion last year, continue to
pale compared
with the market for meat in America—but vegetarian
alternatives to meat are
booming, with sales
growing at more than double the rate for food
products overall. The steady
drumbeat of news
about the negative health impacts, environmental
problems, and animal
welfare concerns
associated with meat consumption appears to be
sinking in. According to a
survey released in
April, more than half of Americans surveyed said
they plan to eat more
plant-based foods in the
coming year.
63. Beyond Meat’s veggie
burger made headlines probably because __________.
A. it makes perfect use of animal protein
B. it uses high tech in the making process
C. it tastes as good as a genuine beef burger
D. it represents the diet trend in South
California
64. Which of the following
statements is TRUE regarding the state of Beyond
Meat?
A. It is the creator of the country’s
first 100 percent plant-based burgers.
B. It
has been well received as its products are
available nationwide.
C. It is far from being
a match to real food processing giants like Tyson.
8
D. It provides high-quality
dining experience in selected Whole Foods stores.
65. What can we infer from paragraph 4?
A.
The purchase of the stake barely costs a thing for
Tyson.
B. The 5 percent stake in Beyond Meat
means a lot to Tyson.
C. Tyson’s investment
hasn’t caught the attention of the media as
expected.
D. Tyson is relying on this
investment to raise more project capital funding.
66. What does the passage mainly talk about?
A. Meat will still take over the market in
spite of other alternatives.
B. A major
American meat company is betting on plant-based
protein.
C. Tyson and Beyond Meat work
together to build a global meat giant.
D.
Plants have been found to contain protein that
does more good to human beings.
Section C
Directions: 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. Many of us just drive on as we have
right of way.
B. It is this social aspect that
makes many people suspicious about driverless
cars.
C. The latest robot cars are able to
make the necessary eye contact with a human
driver.
D. Humans are always suspicious about
new technologies of which they have little
experience.
E. Even many people with suspicion
accept that emotionless AVs could cause fewer
accidents than we
humans.
F. These
safety-first robot cars could become victims of
their own politeness and end up being bullied and
ignored by aggressive, impatient humans.
Would You Bully(欺负) a Driverless Car or
Show It Respect?
Say you’re driving down a
two-way street and there’s a truck unloading a
delivery in the
opposite lane. The oncoming
traffic needs to pull out into your lane to
overtake.
What do you do?
___67___
Eventually one of us feels charitable and slows
down to allow the oncoming car
to overtake and
give permission with a quick flash of headlights
or a wave of the hand.
But what if the car
waiting patiently behind the parked truck is a
driverless or autonomous
vehicle (AV)? Will
this robot car be able to understand what you mean
when you flash your lights
or wave your hands?
Its sensors could decide that it’s only safe
to overtake when there’s no oncoming traffic at
all.
On a busy road at school home time, this
may be never, leading to increasingly angry
drivers
queuing behind. ___68___ This is one
of the conclusions to be drawn from research
carried out
by Dr Chris Tennant of the
psychological and behavioural science department
at the London
School of Economics.
His
Europe-wide survey finds that nearly two-thirds of
drivers think machines won’t have
enough
common sense to interact with human drivers, and
more than two-fifths think a robot
9
car would remain stuck behind our
assumed parked truck for a long time.
Driving
isn’t just about technology and engineering, it’s
about human interactions and
psychology. The
road is a social space. ___69___ “If you view the
road as a social space, you will
consciously
negotiate your journey with other drivers. People
who like that negotiation process
appear to
feel less comfortable engaging with AVs than with
human drivers,” says Mr Tennant in
his report.
___70___ A statistic often trotted
out(动不动就搬出) is that human error is responsible
for more than 90% of accidents, with our
tendency to road anger, tiredness and lack of
concentration.
IV. Summary Writing
Directions: Read the following passage.
Summarize the main idea and the main point(s) of
the
passage in no more than 60 words. Use your
own words as far as possible.
Super Size Me
Fast food, otherwise known as junk food, is a
huge passion for a large number of people
across the Western world. But what would
happen if you ate lots of junk food, every day?
Would
it seriously damage your health? These
were the questions which led Morgan Spurlock, an
independent film-maker, to do an experiment,
which he made into a documentary film entitled
Super Size Me.
The main basis of his
experiment was that Spurlock promised to eat three
McDonald’s meals
a day, every day, for a
month. He could only eat food from McDonald’s and
every time an
employee asked if he would like
to “super size” the meal, he had to agree. “Super
sizing” refers to
the fact that with this type
of meal you get a considerable larger portion of
everything.
Spurlock knew that by eating
three McDonald’s meals a day, he would consume a
lot of fat
and a great deal of salt and sugar
in each meal—much more than he needed. Although
Spurlock
knew he would put on a bit of weight,
and that this diet was unhealthy, he wasn’t quite
prepared
for just how unhealthy it turned out
to be. The changes in his body were horrifying in
the first
week, he put on 4.5 kilos and by the
end of the thirty days he had gained nearly 14
kilos, bringing
his total weight to a massive
98kg.
Spurlock says “I’d love people to walk
out of the movie and say, ’Next time I’m not going
to
“super size”. Maybe I’m not going have any
junk food at all. I’m going to sit down and eat
dinner
with my kids, with the TV off, so that
we can eat healthy food, talk about what we’re
eating and
have a relationship with each
other.’” Food for thought indeed.
