If you are interested in practical science, testing and analyzing things, this job could be perfect for you.Having a curious mind and an eye for detail will help you solve problems in the lab. Youll also need to be well aware of health and safety. To become a laboratory or lab t
12、echnician, you would usually need at least four GCSEs (普通中等教育证书) including science, maths and English. For some jobs employers may expect you to have A levels or a degree.Whatever area you work in, your main duties are likely to include: setting up experiments or investigations, carrying out risk as
13、sessments (评估) for lab activities, collecting and analyzing samples, preparing solutions and cultures, recording and presenting data, and making sure that equipment is clean and in good working order.In an educational setting, you would also set up equipment and show experiments. You would usually w
14、ork in a team that includes scientists and other technicians. With experience you may also guide lab support workers or junior technicians.You will usually work 37 hours a week as a fulltime lab technician. You will usually work in sterile (无菌的) lab conditions and wear protective clothing such as la
15、b coats, safety glasses and gloves. In some industries, you may need to travel to carry out field work or collect samples for analysis.Starting salaries for lab technicians are around 15,000 a year. With experience this can rise to between 20,000 and 25,000 a year. Senior lab technicians may earn 30
16、,000 a year or more.21To become a lab technician, you should have _.Aa college degree Bat least A levels of four subjectsCfour GCSEs of any four subjectsDfour GCSEs including science, maths and English22How much does a senior lab technician most probably receive?A15,000 a year.B18,000 a year.C20,000
17、 a year. D30,000 a year.23The text is meant to _.Arecommend various jobs Bfind laboratory techniciansCtell about laboratory technicians Dhelp people become interested in scienceB “If you dont behave, Ill call the police” is a lie that parents generally use to get their young children to behave. Pare
18、nts lies work in the short terns, but a new study led by NTU Singapore suggests that theyre associated with harmful effects when the child becomes an adult.The research team asked 379 Singaporean young adults whether their parents lied to them when they were children, how much they lie to their pare
19、nts now, and how well they adjust to adulthood challenges. Adults who reported being lied to more as children were more likely to report deceiving their parents in their adulthood. They also said they faced greater difficulty in meeting psychological and social challenges.Lead author Assistant Profe
20、ssor Setoh Peipei from NTU Singapores School of Social Sciences said，“Parenting by lying can seem to save time especially when the real reasons behind why parents want children to do something is complicated to explain. When parents tell children that honesty is the best policy, but display dishones
21、ty by lying, such behaviour can send conflicting messages to their children. Parents dishonesty may eventually break trust and promote dishonesty in children. Our research suggests that parenting by lying is a practice that has bad consequences for children when they grow up. Parents should be aware
22、 of this and consider alternatives to lying, such as acknowledging childrens feelings, giving information so children know what to expect, offering choices and problem-solving together, to help children develop good behaviour.”The analysis found that parenting by lying could place children at a grea
23、ter risk of developing problems that the society disapproves, such as aggression and rule-breaking behaviour. Some limitations of the study include relying on what young adults report about their past experience of parents lying. “Future research can explore using more information providers, such as
24、 parents, to report on the same topic,” suggested Asst Prof Setoh.24Why is a parental lie mentioned in the first paragraph?A. To introduce the topic for discussion. B. To tell a popular way to educate children.C. To prove the great influence of the police. D. To show the harmful effects of parental
25、lies.25The underlined word “deceiving” in paragraph 2 is closest in meaning to “_”.A. worrying B. abusing C. disappointing D. cheating26According to the research ，which of the following can parents do?AGive children chances to choose. BForce good behaviour on children.CLet children solve problems al
26、one. DStop children knowing what to expect.27What does the last paragraph imply about the study?AIt is quite controversial.BIt is rather meaningless.CIt needs to be perfected.DIt demands honest responses.C Mr. Lee speaks six languages and his company, Flitto now has more than five million users arou
27、nd the world, and enjoys revenues (收益) of about D|S2.1 million a year.Unlike most professional translation companies, it doesnt directly employ translators. Instead, Flitto invites members of the public who know more than one language to offer their services via its website and mobile phone app. Tod
28、ay it has one million translators in 170 countries, who offer translations between 17 different languages.Due to his fathers job with an international company, Mr. Lee spent most of his childhood living overseas. He was born in Kuwait, where he spent his first four years, before the family then move
29、d to the UK. After three years in the UK, the family relocated again, this time to the US, before moving to Jeddah in Saudi Arabia 24 months later. Educated in international schools, he was quick to pick up English, French and Arabic, the first three languages Mr. Lee added to his native Korean. Aft
30、er seven years in Saudi Arabia, Mr. Lees family moved back to South Korea where he finished high school, and then went to the countrys famous Korea University.It was at college that friends of his started to ask him to help them translate their homework into English, which was required as part of th
31、eir courses. “So friends would say to me, Simon, if you translate this homework into English Im going to buy you dinner，” he says.“And more and more friends were asking me to do that, so I didnt have enough time.” Realizing the business potential of translation services, Mr. Lee started getting othe
32、r multilingual friends to help out, and thus his idea for setting up a firm was born.28. What do most professional translation firms generally do?AThey ask foreign language teachers for help.BThey hire someone to do translation technically.CThey find native speakers of the target language.DThey coop
33、erate with other translation institutions.29From the third paragraph, we may learn that Mr. Lee _.Abenefited a lot from his overseas experienceBhad a hard life and felt lonely when youngClearned a lot of languages from his parentsDlived in the US longer than in the UK30How does Mr. Lee come up with
34、the idea of founding a company?AIt is simply out of his interest in translation.BIt is inspired by helping friends with translation.CIt occurs to him after his research into the market.DIt is learned from his father who owns a global firm.31Which of the following words can best describe Mr. Lee?ADev
35、oted and considerate. BDetermined and intelligent.CHelpful and creative. DPersistent and optimistic.DTo address the plastic pollution troubling the worlds seas and waterways, Cornell University chemists have developed a new polymer（聚合物）that can degrade（降解）when exposed to ultraviolet radiation, accor
36、ding to the research published in the Journal of the American Chemical Society.“We have created a new plastic that has the mechanical properties required by commercial fishing gear. If it eventually gets lost in the water environment, this material can degrade on a realistic time scale,” said lead r
37、esearcher Bryce Lipinski, professor of chemistry and chemical biology at Cornell University. “This material could reduce persistent plastic accumulation in the environment.”Commercial fishing contributes to about half of all floating plastic waste that ends up in the oceans. Fishing nets and ropes a
38、re primarily made from three kinds of polymers, none of which easily degrade. “While research of degradable plastics has received much attention in recent years,” Lipinski said, “obtaining a material with the mechanical strength comparable to commercial plastic remains a difficult challenge.”Coates
39、and his research team have spent the past 15 years developing the new plastic called isotactic polypropylene oxide, or iPPO. While its original discovery was in 1949, the mechanical strength of this material was unknown before this recent work. The high isotacticity and polymer chain length of their
40、 material makes it different from previous plastics and provides its mechanical strength.Lipinski noted that while iPPO is stable in ordinary use, it eventually breaks down when exposed to UV light. The change in the plastics composition is evident in the laboratory, but “visually, it may not appear
41、 to have changed much during the process,” he said, “The rate of degradation is light intensity-dependent, but under their laboratory conditions, the polymer chain lengths degraded to a quarter of their original length after 30 days of exposure.” Lipinski and other scientists want no trace of the po
42、lymer to be left in the environment. He notes there is precedent（先例）for the biodegradation of small chains of iPPO which could effectively make it disappear and ongoing efforts aim to prove this.32.What is special about the new polymer?A. It can reduce plastic consumption. B. It is expected to lower
43、 fishing costs.C. It can degrade plastic waste in the sea water. D. It has been developed to solve plastic pollution.33. What can we infer from paragraph 3?A. Fishing should be forbidden in the sea.B. It requires great effort to invent the new plastic.C. Nets and ropes are not the major pollution so
44、urce.D. Degradable plastics were not studied until recently.34. What did the recent study find about iPPO?A. Its original use. B. Its special intensity. C. Its mechanical strength. D. Its complex composition.35. What is Lipinskis attitude towards the future of iPPO?A. Hopeful.B. Indifferent.C. Skept

Negative.第二节(共5小题;每小题2.5分，满分12.5分)根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。No-friend eating trendWhen you eat lunch in a restaurant, you might see many people eating by themselves, watching videos on their phones. 36 Do you worry theyre lonely?You probably didnt even notice because you were
46、looking at your own phone. The New York Post says that eating alone with electronic devices is a growing trend among young people around the world.According to a new survey conducted by OnePoll on behalf of the US-based Highbush Blueberry Council, the average adult eats six meals alone each week and
47、 387 meals each year.37 Maybe not.“The way we define togetherness and what it means to be connected seems to be evolving as technology evolves. Keeping our relationships strong doesnt always require being together physically,” wrote the report.Nowadays, many young people spend more time studying and
48、 working in competitive environments. 38 Instead, its natural to communicate with others through text, email and social media.Daniela Galarza, from the US, is one of these young people. She told the New York Post that she spent nearly 10 hours on her work every day. She said, “Engaging with my frien
49、ds and families on social media platforms for about half an hour every day always helps me feel more connected with them. 39”“Today, togetherness is more of a feeling than a physical state, and people get creative to stay connected,” a spokesperson for The Highbush Blueberry Council told the New Yor
