26、Chinese audiences seemed not to have been satisfied with the third season of the highly anticipated food documentary A Bite of China.

Even though the series has maintained high viewership ratings since its comeback last week, much higher than other programs aired at the same time, the ranking on Douban, a social networking website featuring films, literature and events, slipped to 4.2 out of 10, as of Tuesday, compared with 9.3 and 8.4, respectively, for the first two seasons.

Picky viewers complain that some of the narration is not accurate, while others pinpoint misleading content. At the same time, food blogger @barbara questioned whether it is appropriate to give a close-up shot of the poisonous plant Nandina(南天竺)in a food program.

A Bite of China, which debuted in 2012, became hugely popular nationwide for its quality introduction of some rarely-known and mouth-watering domestic cuisine. In the new show, however, watchers are not satisfied with “irrelevant” food references, such as lipsticks made of Chinese traditional medicine and martial arts master.

The first episode introduced a hand-made iron frying pan from east China’s Shandong province, which prompted thousands of Chinese Internet users to buy one from China’s leading e-commerce website Tmall in the next few days. Sales of the pan at “Zhensanhuan” surged 6,000 times compared with a year ago, according to Beijing Youth Daily.

In response to overwhelming criticism and questions, A Bite of China production crew responded on Weibo that they seek innovation despite the risks following the first two phenomenal seasons.

“It is unavoidable to make comparisons with the first two, and some audiences may not accept the changes,” the crew said. “We explore the culture and civilization behind food, and give food a historic touch. That’s why we feature culinary(烹饪的)tools, feast and rituals, as well as a healthy diet to show Chinese wisdom and philosophy, which has not been shown in any food programs before.”

【1】Why does the passage mention Nandina?

A．Because some of the narration is not accurate.

B．Because it may be improper to give a close-up shot of a poisonous plant.

C．Because it is misleading content.

D．Because it is not attractive at all to most picky viewers.

【2】Which of the following elements leads to viewers’ dissatisfaction with the new show?

A．some mouth-watering domestic cuisines

B．food-unrelated items

C．some rarely-known cuisines

D．the increasing sales of the pan at “Zhensanhuan”

【3】According to its production crew, what is unique to ‘A Bite of China III’?

A．It makes comparisons with the first two episodes.

B．It tells the story of some martial arts related to food.

C．It receives overwhelming criticism and questions from audience.

D．It focuses on cooking tools, rituals and healthy eating.

【4】What is the best the title for the passage?

A．'A Bite of China III' Draws Criticism from Audiences

B．'A Bite of China III' Maintains High Viewership Ratings

C．'A Bite of China III' Changes for the Worse

D．'A Bite of China III' Explains its Purposes

27、   One spring morning, I was hiking on southeastern Alaska’s Island when I froze. 20 paces away was a huge Alaskan Wolf — caught in a trap. It was a mother wolf. Somewhere there were hungry pups (幼崽) waiting for her.

From her appearance, I guessed that she had been trapped only a few days. That meant her pups were probably still alive. So I decided to search for her pups. Fortunately, I spotted her pups. I began imitating the high-pitched call of a mother wolf calling her young. A few moments later, four tiny pups appeared. One by one, I placed them in a bag and headed back down the slope.

When the mother wolf spotted me, she let out a high-pitched. I released the pups, and they raced to her. I could see that the trap’s steel jaws had imprisoned only two toes. They were swollen, but she wouldn’t lose the paw — if I could free her.

“OK,” I said. “Just a minute and you will be free.” I applied pressure, the trap opened, and the wolf pulled free. Reaching the far side, I looked back. The mother and her pups were sitting where I had left them, watching me. I waved. At the same time, the mother wolf sent a long howl into the air.

Four years later, I returned after serving in the Army. Standing on the edge of a hill, I gave out a wolf call. An echo came and a wolf call followed. Then I saw a dark shape moving in my direction. “Hello, old girl,” I called gently. The wolf moved closer, her tail wagging slightly. Moments later, the wolf left. But the memory she left with me will always be there, a reminder that there are things in nature that exist outside the laws and understanding of man.

A.The author was once a soldier.

B.It was winter when the story happened.

C.The author never saw the wolf again after saving her.

D.The wolf couldn’t recognize the author four years later.

【4】What can be the best title for the text?

A.A Hike Trapped a Wolf.

B.We Should Protect the Wolf.

28、Walking routes that are quicker and cheaper than the Tube in London

Love to shop? You can walk between Knightsbridge and fashionable Sloane Square in around 10 minutes一much simpler than swapping lines at South Kensington.

Don't fall into the trap of taking the Piccadilly line between Covent Garden and Leicester Square. It takes just four minutes to walk and you'll avoid the queues for the lifts at Covent Garden.

*Use a Santander Cycle for just £2

It costs £2 to access Santander Cycles for 24 hours. The first half hour is free each time you hop on a new bike, which means you can make multiple trips in one day and still pay only £2.

*Hop on a bus

Buses don't just offer a scenic way of getting around London—they're easy on the wallet too! A single fare costs just £1.50, while unlimited bus travel on a contactless card costs £4.50.

Make the most of the hopper fare, which allows you to make a second bus journey for free within an hour of travel.

*Go contactless for the cheapest fare

If you have to take the Tube, use the same contactless card all day long to make the most savings when making multiple journeys. Contactless card users benefit from a daily cap (上限).

【1】What is the author's purpose in writing the passage?

A.To introduce different ways of transport in London.

B.To offer people tips for cheap travel options in London.

C.To warn people against traps of wasting money in London.

D.To compare different ways of transport in London.

【2】We can learn from the passage that   .

A.one takes the Tube from Knightsbridge to Sloane Square without changing lines

B.it takes one only £2 to make multiple trips with a Santander Cycle for 24 hours

C.one will enjoy a free journey as long as he/she transfers within an hour of travel

D.unlimited Tube travel with a daily cap is accessible when the same card is used

29、   When talking about the two sexes, people often say that men are from Mars and women are from Venus. Undeniably, men and women have great differences in many ways.

However, these contrasts in character could all be down to supposed differences between the male and female brain.

For example, a study led by British psychologist Stuart Ritchie in 2012 found that men’s brains are on average 10 percent bigger than women’s.

And another study led by Israeli psychologist Daphna Joel at Tel Aviv University in 2015 further claimed that differences exist in male and female brains, although each individual’s brain has a “mix of features”, as New Scientist wrote.

But Lise Eliot, a professor of neuroscience (神经学) at the Chicago Medical School, begs to differ. She recently said that the brain “is a unisex organ ”.

Through analyzing brain data of several different men and women, Eliot found that the statistics about brain differences mean nothing. According to her findings, male and female brains are not much more different from each other than male or female hearts or kidneys. And more importantly, these differences don’t show that male and female brains work differently.

So, if it’s not in the brain, what makes males and females behave differently? The answer may lie in socialization, according to The Atlantic.

In the past, many gender studies ignored the effects of a person’s social background and upbringing, instead relying on other data. Take former Harvard University president Lawrence Summers for example. He used a 1970 study that showed men outperformed women 13-to-one on the math part of the SAT to argue that males are more suited to science subjects.

However, another study found that if females were given better opportunities to study science subjects, the ratio would drop to three-to-one.

Eliot’s study “contributed in an important way to the conversation,” neuropharmacologist Margaret McCarthy at the University of Maryland School of Medicine in Baltimore, US, told Science magazine.

Yet, at the same time, McCarthy believes that classing males and females as essentially the same is going “too far”.

【1】Why were Ritchie and Joel’s studies mentioned in the article?

A.To explain the causes of behavioral differences in men and women.

B.To show how men and women differ in character.

C.To explain the differences between male and female brains.

D.To explore the features of male and female brains.

【2】What did Eliot’s study find?

A.Male and female brains are exactly the same.

B.Male and female brains do not differ in function.

C.Brain data is not useful for conducting gender studies.

D.Male and female brains have fewer differences than other organs.

【3】What causes the differences in behavior between men and women, according to The Atlantic?

A.Brain size. B.Intelligence.

C.Social environment. D.Learning ability.

【4】Which statement would McCarthy probably agree with?

A.It’s important to give equal opportunities to men and women.

B.It’s unnecessary to study the differences between men’s and women’s brains.

C.Eliot’s study offers a good explanation for gender differences.

D.Male brains are better at solving science problems.

31、   Saddleworth Moor in the north of England is a bare place. It seemed almost wired to me, then, that anyone should _____ the building of seven wind turbines( 风力发电机) to produce clean, renewable energy. Surely this was the perfect place to situate them--- basically dull, unattractive to tourists and ----- _____ ---windy. Yet Saddleworth is becoming another battleground in an increasingly confusing _____ over wind farming and the future of the planet.

Typical of this confusion is hearing Professor David Bellamy _____ the fight against wind farms. I had always thought of Professor Bellamy as an environmentalist had made the _____ assumption that he would be a natural supporter of wind power. However, on reflection, Bellamy would be better described as a conservationist, whose main aim is to preserve natural habitats of plants and animals from destruction, rather than a(n) _____ on climate change. He has fought against other renewable energies that _____ wildlife and wildness, and has described the wind turbines as weapons of mass destruction killing birds and bats.

Bellamy, along with other opponents, has argued the wind farms are in fact _____, and are only commercially successfully because they are so heavily funded. This argument has been put forward by several newspaper commentators recently , who have then gone to _____ nuclear power. This doesn’t take into account years of _____ from Greens who claim that nuclear power is both expensive and dangerous. And yet nuclear energy has recently been _____ by a leading green scientist , Professor James Lovelock, who was one of the first to draw attention to the problem of climate change. He argues that renewable energy such as wind simply cannot provide sufficient electricity for our energy needs.

And so it goes on. There are so many _____ claims, each apparently fronted by some outstanding scientists and backed up by a lot of statics. So who’s actually right? What’s the right solution? What _____ me is that we will take so long in deciding that it will be too late. The damage will have been done. Yet what I also _____ is how convenient these conflicting arguments are. We can avoid making any changes to our personal lifestyles by just doing nothing. Global warming isn’t down to me going to Barcelona by air for the weekend or having a dishwasher or driving everywhere; no, it’s because those people in Saddleworth won’t let us build our _____!

With this ______ belief, I, at fourteen, decided to become a writer. Here too, reading became ________. Every writer starts off ______ that he has something to say, but being unable to find the _______ ways to say it. He has to find his own voice by reading widely and ______ which parts of the writers he agrees or disagrees with, or agrees with so strongly that it ______ his own world. He cannot write without loving to read, ______ only through reading other people’s writing can one discover what works, what doesn’t and, in the end, together with lots of practice, what voice he has.

Now I am in college, and have come to realize how ______ it is to read fiction (文学作品)．As a law student, my reading is in fact ______ to subject matter—the volume of what I have to read for classes every week ______ there is little time to read anything else. Such reading made it all the ______ to me that I live in a very small part in this great place called ______. Reading fiction ______ me that there is life beyond my own.

34、Directions: Fill in each blank with a proper word chosen from the box. Each word can be used only once. Note that there is one word more than you need.

Knowledge is free on the Internet at a small but 【1】 number of colleges and universities. About 160 schools around the world now put free course materials on the web to the 【2】. Recent additions in the United States 【3】 projects at Yale, Johns Hopkins and the University of California, Berkeley.

Berkeley said it would offer videos of lectures on YouTube. Free videos from other schools are 【4】 at the Apple iTunes store.

The Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) became an early 【5】 with its Open Course Ware project, first 【6】 in 2001. Free lecture notes, exams and other resources are published at ocw.mit.edu. Many exams even include the answers. Today, Open Course Ware offers materials from 1,800 undergraduate and graduate courses. These 【7】 from Physics to Political Science. Visitors can learn the same things as MIT students learn. But as the site points out, Open Course Ware is not an MIT education. Visitors receive no credit toward a degree. Some materials from a course may not be available, and the site does not provide 【8】 with teachers. Still, MIT says that the site has had forty million visits by thirty-one million visitors from almost every country. Sixty percent of the visitors are from outside the United States and Canada. Students and educators use the site, including students at MIT. But the largest number of visitors, about half, are self-learners.

Some professors have become well-known around the world as a result of 【9】 online. Walter Lewin, a physics professor at MIT, is 【10】 popular. Fans enjoy his entertaining lectures. MIT Open Course Ware now includes materials for high school. The aim is to improve education in Science, Technology, Math and Engineering.

35、I have a muscle disease but I don't look any different from other people. Sometimes, I was too weak【1】 go to school so my education suffered. Every time I returned after an【2】(absent), I felt stupid because I was behind the others.

My life is a lot easier at high school because few fellow students make me【3】(annoy). My ambition is to work for a firm【4】develops computer software when I grow up. Last year I invented a computer football game and a big company has decided to buy it from me. I have a very busy life with no time to sit around【5】(feel) sorry for myself. As well as going to the movies and football matches with my friends. I spend a lot of time looking after my pets【6】(proper) but I find it worthwhile.

In many ways my disability has helped me grow stronger psychologically and become more【7】 (independence). I have to work hard to live a normal life but it has been worth it. If【8】(have) a chance to say one thing to healthy children, it would be this: having a disability does not mean your life is not satisfying. So don't feel sorry for the disabled or make fun【9】them, and don't ignore them either. Just accept them for who they are, and give them encouragement to live【10】rich and full a life as you do.

A huge milestone has just been reached in the field of artificial intelligence: AlphaGo, a program developed by Google’s DeepMind unit, has defeated legendary Go player Lee Se-dol in the first of five historic matches being held in Seoul, South Korea. Lee 【1】 after about three and a half hours, with 28 minutes and 28 seconds remaining on his clock. The series is the first time a professional 9-dan Go player has taken on a computer, and Lee is 【2】 for a $1 million prize.

“I was very surprised,”said Lee after the match.“I didn’t expect to lose. But I didn’t think AlphaGo would play the game in such a perfect manner.”DeepMind founder Demis Hassabis expressed“huge 【3】 for Lee Se-dol and his amazing skills.”calling the game“hugely exciting”and“very tense.”Team lead David Silver said it was an“amazing game of Go that really pushed AlphaGo to its 【4】.”

Go is an ancient Chinese board game that has long been considered one of the great 【5】faced by AI. While computer programs ow best the world’s leading human players of games like checkers and chess, the high level of intuition and 【6】required by Go has made it tough for computers to crack. DeepMind’s AlphaGo program is the most 【7】effort yet, using a complex system of deep neural networks and machine learning; it beat European champion Fan Hui last year, but Lee Se-dol is another 【8】 rival entirely.

“I don’t regret accepting this challenge,”said Lee.“I am in shock, I admit that, but what’s done is done. I enjoyed this game and look forward to the next. I think I failed on the opening layout so if I do a better job on the opening aspect I think I will be able to increase my 【9】 of winning.”Lee was surprised both by how strong AlphaGo’s opening was, and by some 【10】moves.

40、阅读下面短文，根据所给情节进行续写,使之构成一个完整的故事。

“Good news,” Mom said, with a bright smile on her face. "The Parker family wants Surfer. They'll be here in an hour to take him home. ” Surfer had been with us for two days. While I was sad at the thought of seeing him go, I knew I couldn't keep him.

My family operate a foster home（收养所）for pets. Surfer had been in an animal shelter, and he was sent to us so we could place him with a loving family. Surfer was a cute puppy, so finding a home for him had been very easy. Dad entered Surfer's information into a pet adoption website, along with some photos, and within a few hours, the Parkers applied to adopt him. Mom looked over their application, and they seemed like responsible people, so she called them.

However, not every dog was so lucky. Zooey was nine years old, and she'd been with us for a few months. It seemed like nobody wanted to adopt an older dog. Dad said that was a shame because older dogs made wonderful companions. Zooey's previous owner had treated her terribly, and when she was sent to us she was injured. I remember how angry Dad seemed at the time. "No dog should be treated like that,“ he said.

When Zooey came to us, she was upset around everyone. She barked at our two dogs as if in defense and backed away when I tried to approach her. But with our considerate care, it wasn't long before Zooey trusted us. I took her on walks around the neighborhood and got her used to other people and dogs. She took a real liking to Surfer. In fact, they often curled together as they napped（打盹）.

The Parkers soon arrived, and we all went into the backyard so they could meet with Surfer. Zooey followed us out, her tail wagging lazily, as Surfer rolled in the grass with the two Parker children.
