23、D. A money-back guarantee.B In the short time Steve and Zach had been inside their tent packing their tools, wind-blown flame had skipped from the top of one tree to another. The long dry summer had turned the forest into a tinderbox.“Lets go! We can make it back to the river we crossed today!” Stev
24、e kept Brady on the lead and their heads down against the fire-wind. But Brady barked a sharp warning. Ahead of them lay a thick curtain of smoke across the track. They would never make it through that. The dog was pulling at his lead trying to draw them away from the smoke, and yet Steve was uneasy
25、. It seemed to him that they were moving away from the river.Suddenly, Zach cried. “Zach!” Steve shouted. “Are you OK? Where are you?” Then Brady pulled Steve down a sharp slope(坡). At its base, Zach was rubbing his ankle. As Steve helped his friend to his feet, Brady lifted his head and snuffed(嗅)
26、the smoke-laden wind. Next moment, the dog bounded away and disappeared. The boys shouted for him, but he didnt come back. Steve couldnt blame Brady for panicking. He himself wanted to run even though he didnt have a clue which way.Steve and Zach hadnt gone far when there was a familiar bark, and Br
27、ady came bounding, stopped directly in front of Steve and hit him with his head, pushing him back toward the slope theyd just climbed. But Steve didnt get it. Then Brady grabbed the boys jeans and started pulling. The message was clear, but Steve hesitated. Of course he remembered Brady saving his u
28、ncles life when the dog was much younger. Was he still sharp enough to get them through this?Nearby, a pine went up in a whoosh of smoke. Brady pulled again, urgently. “OK, big guy,” Steve gritted(咬紧牙关). Brady led them back down the slope and into the trees. Not far from them fire was touching under
29、brush. Several times the big dog stopped. Often he changed directions. Steve was so tired that he just wanted to rest, but Brady wouldnt have it. The dog bullied both boys to go on. How long theyd walked Steve had no idea. He was almost numb when he heard itthe wonderful sound of rushing water! 34.
30、What happened to Steve and Zach at first? A. They got injured.B. They lost their dog. C. They were trapped.D. They became separated. 35. Brady ran away to _. A. seek helpB. find a way outC. rescue Zach D. escape for life36. How did Steve feel after Brady pulled his jeans? A. Uneasy.B. Impatient.C. N
31、umb.D. Uncertain.37. The passage basically describes _.A. an adventureB. an explorationC. an escape game D. a training programC Most groups of plants and animals are richer in species and more plentiful near the equator. In the ocean, that holds true for cold-blooded predators(掠食者). But warm-blooded
32、 predators are more diverse toward the poles and noticeably missing from several warm hot spots. Why? John Grady, an ecologist, and his team considered the possibilitywarm-blooded animals need a lot to fuel their metabolism(新陈代谢). Perhaps colder waters are just richer in small fish? But they found t
33、hat at higher, colder places, there isnt actually much more food around. Its more that warm-blooded animals are eating a much bigger share of it than their cold-blooded competitors. The real explanation is simple. An animals speed, swiftness, and intelligence depend on its metabolism, which in turn
34、depends on its temperature. Since birds and mammals can keep heating their bodies in icy conditions, they remain fast and attentive. By contrast, the fish they hunt become slower and duller. At some tipping point of temperature, seals, dolphins, and penguins start outswimming their prey(猎物). They be
35、come more likely to come upon targets and outpace the cold-blooded predators of their own.In Gradys words, “Warm-bodied predators are favoured where preys are slow, stupid and cold.” Thats why sharks and other predatory fish dominate near the equator, but colder waters are the kingdom of whales and
36、seals. By keeping food to themselves in the poles, these creatures can then specialize on specific types of prey, which makes them more likely to split into separate species. The killer whales of the North Pacific, for example, include mammal-eating transients and fish-eating, year-round residents.B
37、ut the world is changing. Its likely that the surface of the oceans will warm by 2 to 3 within this century. Gradys team estimates that every time the oceans surface warms by 1, populations of sea mammals will fall by 12%, and populations of seals and sea lions will fall by 24%. But “predictions are
38、 hard,” Donna Hauser from the University of Alaska Fairbanks notes. “Polar bears are losers of a warming world, but some populations are still doing well. Some groups of whales have changed the timing of their migrations; others are hunting in deeper, colder waters. These changes might make sea mamm
39、als more adaptable to changing climates. Maybe they just need to find the places where fish remain slow, stupid and cold.”38. Why are there more types of warm-blooded predators near the poles? A. Because there is more food.B. Because there are fewer enemies.C. Because they are faster and wiser.D. Be
40、cause they consume less energy.39. The author mentions the killer whales to show _. A. the benefit of biological evolutionB. food preference of different sea mammalsC. the distinction of specific types of predatorsD. the advantage of constant body temperature40.What is Donna Hausers attitude towards
41、 the future of the sea mammals? A. Positive.B. Negative.C. Neutral.D. Sceptical.41. Which is the best title for the passage? A. Are the Poles Heaven for Sea Predators?B. How Do Sea Mammals Track Their Prey?C. Why Do the Warm-Blooded Like Food Cold?D. Is the World Too Hot for the Warm-Blooded? D Last
42、 fall, I happened to overhear a student telling the others he had decided not to sign up for an introductory philosophy course. The demands of his major, he said seriously, meant he needed to take “practical” courses, and “enlightenment” would simply have to wait. For now, employability was the most
43、 important. The students conversation fits into a larger alarming narrative about the role of the humanities in higher education. In a time of dizzying technological achievement and of rapid scientific innovation, sceptics of the humanities may question the usefulness of studying Aristotle, the Ital
44、ian Renaissance or Chinese fiction. Actually, I regret not interrupting that student to argue for taking that introductory philosophy course. I would have started by reminding him that, for much of Americas history, college graduates were not considered truly educated unless they had mastered philos
45、ophy, literature, political theory and history. The key role of higher education was to invite students into the conversations about matters like what it means to be alive and the definition of justice. Fostering engagement with these subjects is still an essential part of the universitys function i
46、n society.I would have also mentioned to the student that he was misinformed about the job market. It is true that many employers are looking for graduates with specialized technical skills, but they also look for other capabilities. As the world is transformed by artificial intelligence, machine le
47、arning and automation, the unique human qualities of creativity, imagination and moral reasoning will be the ultimate coin of the realm. All these skills are developed in humanities courses.Further, I would have argued that while a degree anchored in the sciences is an important precondition for man
48、y jobs, it is not the only route. Look no further than the founders of companies such as LinkedIn, Slack and Flickr, who are among the many tech businesspersons with degrees in the humanities, and who credit that training for their success. Contrary to the widely held belief that humanities majors h
49、ave a hard time getting jobs, recent studies show that those with humanities degrees are successful in the workplace, experiencing low rates of unemployment and reporting high levels of job satisfaction. The ratio between average median(中位数) incomes for humanities degree holders and those with busin
50、ess, engineering, and health and medical sciences degrees has been shown to narrow over the course of a career.The case for the humanities can also be understood in less transactional terms and more as a foundational preparation for a life well lived. A humanities education plays a vital role in enc
51、ouraging citizens to lead an examined life. It fosters critical thinking, self-reflection, empathy and tolerance, the usefulness of which only becomes more apparent as one navigates lifes challenges.By all means, students should take courses they think practical and follow their interests, but if th
52、ey also make a point of studying the literature of the Renaissance, or researching into modern poetry, or even taking introductory philosophy, we will all benefit.42. What do the students conversation show? A. Students feel employment difficult. B. Students think philosophy less important.C. Student
53、s find scientific innovation amazing. D. Students consider university courses unsatisfying.43. What does the underlined part in Paragraph 4 probably mean? A. Highly valued.B. Equally applied. C. Strictly assessed. D. Greatly improved.44. The author may agree that humanities _. A. discover students a
54、rtistic abilityB. prepare students for graduationC. raise awareness of social statusD. provide great insights into life45. Which of the following shows the development of ideas in the passage? AB C D I: Introduction P: Point Sp: Sub-point(次要点) C: Conclusion第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，共10分）根据短文内容，从短文后的七个选项中选出能填入空
55、白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。Are You a Prisoner of Perfection?Do you struggle for a goal that is beyond your reach? 46 Are you setting yourself up for failure and shame when you cant achieve the unachievable? Understanding what drives perfectionism is the first step toward releasing this self-created anchor
56、that keeps us stuck.Shame and fear are often the hidden drivers of perfectionism. We believe that if we can fashion a perfectly polished personality, flash our intelligence, and perfect our humour, then no one can hurt us with criticism and well win respect and approval. 47 Politicians who display a
57、 desperate need to be right and refuse to acknowledge mistakes or uncertainty are often driven by a secret shame. They fear that showing vulnerability(弱点) will expose them to the accusation that theyre weak. They stick to a desire to be right, perfect, and polished, even when its obvious that the em
58、peror has no clothes. Perfectionism keeps us leaning toward the future. Were constantly evaluating ourselves in order to do better. 48 However, if we cant relax and enjoy lighter moments, then we become prisoners of our perfectionism. We get painfully self-conscious and take ourselves too seriously.
59、 Sadly, we deprive(剥夺) ourselves of the simple pleasure of enjoying the moment and being ourselves. 49 We realize that failing at any enterprise doesnt mean that we are a failure. Without failures, well never learn from our mistakes; well never move forward in our lives. Those who succeed have made
60、countless mistakes. The important thing is to learn from our error, forgive ourselves and move on.Being human, perfection is impossible. 50 Releasing ourselves from the desire to protect our image, were freed to sail gracefully through our successes and failuresand enjoy our precious life.A. Do you
61、hold an idealized vision that is impossible to realize?B. A cure to perfectionism is to make room for our human shortcomings. C. Do you fear that others will be horrified by what you judge about yourself?D. The addiction to staying perfect protects us from any sign of being imperfect.E. Theres nothi
62、ng wrong with wanting to do our best and self-correcting along the way. F. People who are addicted to perfection are often isolated, even if they seem outgoing and popular.G. By accepting ourselves as we are and doing our best, we begin to rid the shame that drives perfectionism.第三部分：书面表达（共两节，35分）第一
