Ⅱ. Grammar and Vocabulary
Section A
Directions:After reading the passage below, fill in the blanks to make the passage coherent and grammatically correct. For the
blanks with a given word, fill in each blank with the proper form of the given word; for the other blanks, use one word that best
fits each blank.
Just How Buggy is Your Phone?
What item in your home crawls with the most germs? If you say ___21___ toilet seat, you’re wrong. Kitchen sponges top the
list. But cell phones are pretty dirty too. They contain around 10 times as many germs as toilet seats. People touch their phones,
laptops, and other digital devices all day long, yet rarely clean them.
In one incident, a thief paid a terrible price for stealing a germy cell phone. He stole it from a hospital in Uganda during a
widespread of the deadly disease Ebola. The phone’s owner reported the theft before ___22___(die)from the disease. Soon, the
thief began showing symptoms and finally ___23___(confess)to the crime.
___24___ in that unusual case a cell phone carried dangerous bacteria, not all germs are bad. Most cause no harm. In fact, they
could provide helpful information. Look at the surface of your phone carefully. Do you see some dirty mars?“That's all you,”says
microbial ecologist Jarrad Hampton- Marcell.“That’s biological information.”
It turns out that the types of germs that you apply all over your phone or tablet are different from ___25___ of your friends and
family. They’re like a fingerprint that could identify you. Some day in the future, investigators may use these microbial
fingerprints to solve crimes. Phones and digital devices may be one of the best places to look for buggy clues.
In a 2017 study, researchers sampled a range of surfaces in 22 participants’ homes, ___26___ countertops and floors to
computer keyboards and mice. Then they tried to match the microbial fingerprints on each object to its owner. The office
equipment was easiest to match to its owner. In an ___27___(early)study, a different group of researchers found that they
could use microbial fingerprints to identify the person who ___28___(use)a computer keyboard even after the keyboard sat
untouched for two weeks at room temperature.
One day, microbial signatures might show ___29___ people have gone and what they have touched. They could prove
___30___ an unmarked device is yours. So, sure, your phone is pretty germy. Does that inspire you, or does it just bother you?

The Nile
The ancient Greek writer Herodotus once described Egypt-with some envy-as‘the gift of the Nile’. The Egyptians depend on
the river for food, for water and for life. The Ancient Egyptians were able to control and use the Nile, creating the earliest
irrigation systems and developing a prosperous ___31___.
Snaking through the deserts, the Nile would flood almost ___32___ each year in June. Once the water subsided, a rich deposit
of sand was left behind, making an excellent topaoil. Seeds were sown, yielding wheat, barley, beans, lentils and leeks. Drought
could spell disaster for the Egyptians, so during the dry seasons, they dug basins and channels to deliver water to their land. They
also devised simple channels to transfer water at the peak of the flood.
An early system of ___33___ a Nilometer, was used to determine the size of the floods. Later, during the New Kingdom, a
lifting system called a shaduf was used to raise water from the river--___34___ to the way in which a well is used today.
The Egyptians took up some of the earliest trading missions. Without a(n) ___35___ system they exchanged goods, bringing
back timber, precious stones, pottery, spices and animals. Their efforts in medicine were also ___36___ advanced: surgeons
performed operations to remove cysts(囊肿). Mummification gave them great understanding of the human body-yet they also
relied heavily on various medicines to prevent disease, and discoveries were often confused with superstition(迷信). And while
a great deal of time was dedicated to ___37___ the Egyptians thought the stars were gods.
By the 16
th
century Egypt was under the Ottoman Empire until Britain seized control in 1882. What is now mostly Arabic
Egypt only won ___38___ from Britain after World War Ⅱ. The Suez Canal, opened in 1869, __________the country as a center
for world transportation. But it, and the completion of the Aswan High Dam in 1971 ___40___ the ecology of the Nile, which
now struggles to satisfy the country’s rapidly growing population, currently more than 76 million-the largest in the Arab world.
Ⅲ. 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.
Keeping The Taps Running in Thirsty Cities
Water covers 71% of Earth’s surface yet only 2% of it is accessible as a source of fresh water. ___41___ on this limited
resources is rising, a trend likely to continue.
It is important to recognize that it is not just city residents who ___42___ water. Agriculture, industry and tourism often require
more water than the municipal water supply. Globally, 70% of fresh water is ___43___ for agriculture, but locally in heavily
irrigated(灌溉)areas this can increate to 90%. A healthy environment also requires fresh water, and the quality of available
water is as important as its ___44___.
Water stress is not always caused by physical shortages in dry areas. ___45___ for water resources between different users
within river catchments or basins can also be a cause.


Every thirsty city operates within its own context, ___46___ to the challenge of providing adequate water supplies. Cape Town,
___47___, has faced three years of drought during which winter rains failed to materialize. At the end of the 2017 rainy season the
city faced the ___48___ of its dams running dry during 2018. The dams were only 37% full—in the same week four years before
they were full to the top. In January 2018, it was ___49___ that Cape Town would reach Day Zero, when it would be forced to
turn off the taps, in April. This was despite the city reducing its water use by more than half, from billion litres a day in 2015 to
fewer than 600 million litres, and working ___50___ with industry and agriculture to reduce demand.
On February 1, the authorities put in place a strict limit of 50 litres of water per person per day. ___51___, in Britain this is
considered enough for a five- minute shower of half a washing machine cycle on full load.
In addition, a ban was placed on using ___52___ water for gardens, water management devices were installed at household
with a high water use and the water pressure was reduced to cut demand and leaks. At the same, the city launched a media
___53___ to change habits and introduced higher duties. This is not without its costs; agriculture and tourism, both significant
areas of employment, have ___54___. It is a classic example of the problem of water economics- the cost of water is low but the
cost of a lack of water is very high.
Crises such as the Cape Town drought are in danger of becoming the new norm. The ___55___ of Day Zero must serve as a
wake-up call for cities across the world to develop cost-effective water management strategies to cope with an uncertain future.

(A)
Despite an advertisement campaign suggesting wall-to-wall special effects, “Bridge of Terabithia” is grounded in reality far
more than in fantasy. Adapting Katherine Paterson’s award-winning novel, the screenwriters David Paterson and Jeff Stockwell
have produced a thoughtful and extremely affecting story of a transformative friendship between two unusually gifted children.
The result is a movie whose emotional depth could appeal more to adults than to their children.
Jess Aarons (Josh Hutcherson) is a sixth grader with four sisters, financially tensed parents and a talent for drawing. An
introverted(内向的) kid who is regularly picked on by the school buses, Jess forms a bond with a new student named Leslie (Anna
Sophia Robb), a free spirit whose parents, both writers, are fondly neglectful. An attraction between outsiders, their friendship
feeds on her words and his pictures; together they create an imaginary kingdom in the woods behind their homes, a world they can
control and where their minds can wander free.
Beautifully capturing a time when a bully in school can occur as large as a monster in a nightmare and the encouragement of
a teacher can alter the course of a life, “Bridge to Terabithia” keeps the fantasy in the background to find magic in the everyday.
Gabor Csupo directs this, his first feature, like someone close to the pain of being different, fascinated in tiny, perfect details.
With strong performances from all the leads, “Bridge to Terabithia” is able to handle adult topics with sensitivity. As the
emotional landscape darkens, those who haven’t read the book may be surprised at the sorrow the filmmakers cause without ever
resorting to horror or terror. In other words, your children may cry, but they won’t be traumatized so badly.
Consistently smart and delicate as a spider web, “Bridge to Terabithia” is the kind of children’s movie rarely seen nowadays.
At a time when many public schools are being forced to cut music and art from the curriculum, the story’s insistence on the
healing power of a cultivated imagination is both welcome and essential.
56. The second paragraph indicates that Jess and Leslie ________.




A. lost their control over the imaginary kingdom
B. looked down on their individual realities
C. formed a good friendship despite their different talents
D. wrote a book about a magical land called Terabithia
57. Which of the following words is most likely to replace “traumatized” (paragraph 4)?
A. criticized B. ignored C. delighted D. shocked
58. The two children most likely ________.




A. skipped school to play in the woods behind their campus
B. created an imaginary world as an escape from reality
C. disappointed their parents with their over-active imaginations
D. won against the bullies at school with strong performances
59. Which of the following statements will the author most probably agree with?






A. The fantasy components of the movie were too over- done.
B. The movie is motional but not much too dramatic.
C. “Bridge to Terabithia” has a negative impact on public school education.
D. Children shouldn’t watch the film as they are too young to understand the topics.
(B)
Hot Air Balloons

A hot air balloon is made
up of 3 main parts:
The Envelope
The actual fabric balloon
which holds the air
The Burner
The unit which pushes the
heat up into the envelope
The Basket
Where the passengers and
pilot stand
The basis of how the balloon works is that warmer air rises in cooler air. This is because hot air is lighter than cool air as it
has less mass per unit of volume. Mass can be defined by the measure of how much matter something contains. The actual balloon
has to be large as it takes a large amount of heated air to lift it off the
ground.
The burner uses propane gas to heat up the air in the envelope to move the balloon off the ground and into the air. The pilot
must keep firing the burner at regular intervals throughout the flight to ensure that the balloon continues to the stable. Naturally,
the hot air will not escape from the hot at the very bottom of the envelop as firstly, hot air rises and secondly, the floating power
keeps it moving up.
To move the balloon upwards, the pilot opens up the propane value which lets the propane flow to the burner which in turn
frees the flame up into the envelope. It works in much the same way as a gas grill: the more you open the valve, the bigger the
flame to beat the air and the faster the balloon rises.
The “Parachute Valve” at the very top of the balloon is what is used to bring the balloon down towards the ground. It is a
circle of fabric cut out of the top of the envelop which is controlled by a rope which runs down through the middle of the envelope
to the basket. If the pilot wants to bring the balloon down, he or she simply pulls on the rope which will open the valve, letting hot
air escape, decreasing the inner air temperature. This cooling of air causes the balloon to slow its rise.


The pilot can operate horizontally by changing the vertical position of the balloon because the wind blows in different
directions at different altitudes. If the pilot wants to move in a particular direction, he or she simply arises and falls to the
appropriate level and rides with the wind.
60. The purpose of this article is to __________.
A. explain how hot air balloons work
B. illustrate why hot air balloons are useful
C. describe hot air balloons’ structure
D. inform readers about how hot air balloons are made
61. What would happen if the “Parachute Valve” could not be released after it was opened?
A. The inside of the balloon would continue to heat up.
B. The balloon would climb up more rapidly
C. The self-sealing valve would need to take over the role of the Parachute Valve.
D. The balloon would begin to move down more rapidly.
62. Which of the following skills or knowledge would be the most useful to a balloon pilot?
A. The ability to sew the panels of fabric together to make a balloon.
B. An understanding of how propane gas is manufactured.
C. A knowledge of the background of passengers who are travelling in the balloon.
D. A knowledge of air currents and wind directions in the area where he is piloting the balloon.
(C)
The surface of Venus has never seemed very hospitable. Temperatures change around 470°C(900°F), the result of a runway
greenhouse effect, and the pressure of its atmosphere, thick with carbon dioxide and sulfuric acid(硫酸), is some 90 times that of
Earth’s. Lead(铅) would flow like water on Venus, and water cannot have existed in liquid form for perhaps a billion years.
Now NASA’S Magellan spacecraft seems to have found one more horror in the nasty landscape: active volcanoes. Last week
the space agency released the first detailed map of Venus and the most dramatic images ever made of its surface. The picture offer
the best evidence to date that a planet once assumed dead is actually a lively pot of geological change.
The most amazing image is of Venus’s second tallest mountain, Maat Mons, which rises 8km(5 miles) . Most of the planet’s
many peaks, including (6-mile-) high Maxwell Montes, look bright in the radar pictures Magellan takes from its orbit above the
permanent could cover. That means they are strong reflectors of radar waves. But Maat Mons is dark; like the Stealth bomber, it
absorbs much of the radar falling on it.
This interesting fact, say project scientists, is a strong hint that the mountains has recently been covered with lava(熔岩). Rock
that sits on the surface of mountaintops appears to weather quickly in the hot , chemically reactive atmosphere, creating a soil that


is rich in iron sulfide(硫化铁). It is this mineral, the scientists believe, that can easily be seen on radar. If Maat Mons doesn’t have
any, it has probably been resurfaced, perhaps within the past few years.
Such resurfacing has undoubtedly taken place in Venus lowlands: earlier images of the planet showed vast areas that are
remarkably free of craters(火山坑). That would be easy to explain on a Planet like Earth, where cratering from meteor strikes is
erased by steady erosion. But while there is some evidence of wind erosion on Venus, the best explanation for the lack of cratering
is periodic lava flow. Magellan has found direct evidence of such flows, including dome like upwellings and hardened streamed of
rock trailing down the sides of Venusian peaks. There are also signs of other geologic activities, including dramatic faulting and
several distinct incidents of mountain building. But the evidence can’t indicate whether they really occurred millions of years ago.
The case for active Venusian volcanoes is not yet proved, but Magellan, which is now well into its second complete survey of the
planet’s surface, may eventually settle the issue.
63. Which of the following has NO possibility to be found on Venus now?
A. Carbon dioxide B. Sulfuric acid C. Liquid water D. Active volcanoes
64. The scientists believe that _________ shows up easily on radar.
A. geological change B. iron sulfide C. mountain mineral D. lava flow
65. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?
A. The resurfacing has changed the images of the vast areas in Venus lowlands.
B. The wind erosion on Venus is caused by periodic lava flows
C. Streams of rock trailing down the side of Venusian peaks can be seen on Earth
D. Other geologic activities have caused dramatic and unbelievable climate phenomenon.
66. What can be inferred from the passage?
A. NASA’S Magallan spacecraft fails to stand the environment of Venus.
B. There is clear and confirmed evidence for the active Venusian volcanoes on Venus.
C. Some evidence of periodic lava flows has been found by NASA astronauts.
D. Magellan will conduct a follow- up complete survey of the Venus’ surface.
Section C
Directions: Read the following passage. Fill in each blank with a proper sentences given in the box. Each sentence can be used
only once. Note that there are two more sentences than you need.
A. However, facial recognition seems merely to encode them.
B. Research show that artificial intelligence can reconstruct the facial structures of people.
C. Anyone with a phone can take a picture for facial-recognition programs to use.


D. Technology is rapidly catching up with the human ability to read faces.
E. Continuous facial recording that paints computerized data onto the real world might change the
texture of social interactions.
F. The astonishing variety of facial features helps people recognize each other and is crucial to the
formation of complex societies.
Nowhere To Hide:What Machines Can Tell From Your Face
The human face is a remarkable piece of work. 67 So is the face’s ability to send emotional signals, whether through
the unconscious shame or the trick of a false smile. People spend much of their waking lives, in the office and the courtroom as
well as the bar and the bedroom, reading faces, for signs of attraction, hostility, trust and deceit. They also spend plenty of time
trying to hide their feelings, intentions or nature.
68 In America facial recognition is used by churches to track worshippers’ attendance; in Britain, by retailers to spot
past shoplifters. This year Welsh police used it to arrest a suspect outside a football game. In China it confirms the identities of
ride-hailing drivers, permits tourists to enter attractions and lets people pay for things with a smile. Apple’s new iPhone is
expected to use it to unlock the homescreen.
Set against human skills, such applications might seem enhancive. Some breakthroughs, such as flight or the internet,
obviously transform human abilities. 69 Although faces are peculiar to individuals, they are also public, so technology does
not, at first sight, intrude on something that is private. And yet the ability to record, store and analyse images of faces cheaply,
quickly and on a vast scale promises one day to bring about fundamental changes to notions of privacy, fairness and trust.
70 Masking true feelings helps fix the wheels of daily life. If your partner can spot every prohibited yawn, and your
boss every hint of annoyance, marriages and working relationships will be more truthful, but less harmonious. The basis of social
interactions might change, too, from a set of commitments founded on trust to calculations of risk and reward derived from the
information a computer attaches to someone’s face. Relationships might become more reasonable, but also transactional.
IV. Summary Writing
71. 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.
Sport Tourism
Tourism is the world’s largest industry and is predicted to grow well into the years to come. Increasingly, the economic
importance of tourism has been recognized by governments around the world. At the same time, the tourism industry has become
more complicated in its development and marketing new forms of tourism. One of the fastest growing parts of the tourism
industry is travel related to sport and physical activity. A recent survey found that while the traditional beach and sight-seeing
vacations continue to predominate, 22% of those surveyed reported that opportunities to participate in sports were important when
selecting a vacation.
The term sport tourism has been adopted in recent years to describe sport-related leisure travel. It is generally recognized that
three are three broad categories of sport tourism. The first category. Watching sporting events or Sports Event Tourism includes
hallmark events such as FIFA World Cup Football Championships, and the Olympic games. Tournament sponsored by the
Professional Golf Association or the World Tennis Association are also part of the spectator- centered sector of sport tourism.


The second type of sport tourism, celebrity and nostalgia sport tourism involves visiting famous sports-related attractions.
Visits of the sports halls of fame fall into this category. Another form of celebrity and nostalgia sport tourism that has emerged in
recent years is meeting famous sports personalities. The cruise industry has been experienced in this area. Sports theme cruise
such as “the NBA basketball cruise” arrange for passengers to meet personalities from sports while on board.
Active participation is the third category of sports tourism. This is composed of individuals who travel to participate in golf,
skiing, and tennis in particular, although other sports such as fishing, and scuba diving are popular in the US.
