3．Forget about the"post-1995 generation"．Young people born in 1995 or later have another name in English-Generation Z．
Now entering adulthood and soon to join the workforce，Generation Z grew up in a special period of time-a time in which technology developed fast，social changes happened every day，the internet became universal and，sadly，so did global terrorism．
It is believed that Generation Z is the generation that is going to shape our future，which is why policy makers，sociologists and company leaders are trying their best to understand these young people．
So，what are Gen Z-ers really like？
Most people agree that the single biggest difference between Gen Z and other generations is how connected they are．This is a group of people who have been familiar with social media as soon as they were born．Social media has changed the way Gen Z-ers communicate with each other and how they get and understand information．
"We are the first true digital natives．I can almost create a document，edit it，post a photo on Instagram and talk on the phone，all at the same time，"said Hannah Payne，an 18-year-old student at UCLA，according to The New York Times．"Generation Z takes in information very fast and loses interest just as fast．"
It may be true that Generation Z-ers have a shorter attention span （注意力持續(xù)時間）than a goldfish，but sice they grew up among social changes，they are more active in politics．According to the British Election Study，58 percent of 18-t0-24-year-old voted in the 2015 general election in the UK，a big jump from 38 percent in 2005．
Generation Z-ers are also culture creators．"Growing up with the internet has freed this generation from traditional cultural expression．"Wrote Grace Masback，a Huffington Post blogger and a Gen Z-er herself．According to Masback，these young people are no longer willing to let their creativity．According to Masback，these young people are no longer willing to let their creativity be limited by their parents of traditional rules．They watch videos and read news online instead of on TV，and they share their experiences on social media．
"We decide what kind of content we want to experience and choose how we experience it，"wrote Masback．

33．Which is TRUE about Gen Z-ers，according to the article？C
A．Face-to-face communication is challenging for them
B．Often doing many things at the same time affects their efficiency
C．They don't bother to think about the information they at carefully
D．They show more interest in politics than in other fields
34．What can we infer from the last two paragraphs？A

C．Gen Z-ers are against traditional culture
D．Gen Z-ers are unwilling to obey their parents
35．Which word can best describe the author's attitude towards Generation Z？D
A．Worried    
B．Critical   
C．Appreciative   
D．Neutral（中立的）

分析 本文主要講述了Generation Z 這一代的特點，對他們生存的時代背景和現(xiàn)狀進行闡述．

解答 33．C 細節(jié)題．根據(jù)文章內容．"Generation Z takes in information very fast and loses interest just as fast．"由此可知，Generation Z對信息的吸收非常快并且也會很快對其失去興趣，結合選項，答案為C
34．A 主旨題．根據(jù)文章內容．"Growing up with the internet has freed this generation from traditional cultural expression．"…According to Masback，these young people are no longer willing to let their creativity be limited by their parents of traditional rules．They watch videos and read news online instead of on TV，and they share their experiences on social media．由此可知，生長在信息時代的Generation Z，他們就免于了受到傳統(tǒng)文化表達的影響．年輕人再不愿意他們的行為被父母干涉，他們自由獲取社會信息，自由表達自己．結合選項，答案為A
35．D 推理題．根據(jù)文章內容，作者客觀的對Generation Z 進行了描述，對他們生存的時代背景和現(xiàn)狀進行闡述，結合選項，故選D

Peter loved to shop used articles. Almost a month ago, he bought a popular word game that used little pieces of wood with different letters on them. As he was purchasing it, the salesgirl said, “Oh, look, the game box hasn’t even been opened yet. That might be worth some money.”

Peter examined the box and, sure enough, it was completely covered in factory-sealed plastic. And he saw a date of 1973 on the back of the box.

“You should put that up for auction (拍賣) on the Internet, and see what happens,” the salesgirl said.

“Yes, you’re right. People like something rare,” Peter agreed. “I can’t imagine there being very many unopened boxes of this game still around 40 years later.”

“Don’t forget to tell me if you sell it,” the salesgirl smiled.

“No problem,” Peter said.

After he got home, Peter went online to several auction websites looking for his game. But he couldn’t find it. Then he typed in the name of the word game and hit Search. The search result was 543 websites containing information about the changes of the game. Over the years, the game had been produced using letters in different sizes and game boards in different colors. He also found some lists of game fans looking for various versions of the game. Peter emailed some of them, telling them what he had.

Two weeks later, Peter went back to the shop.

“Hello. Do you still remember the unopened word game?”

The salesgirl looked at him for a second, then recognized him and said, “Oh, hi!”

“I’ve got something for you,” Peter said. “I sold the game and made $1,000. Thank you for your suggestion.” He handed her three $100 bills.

“Wow!” the salesgirl cried out. “Thank you. I never expected it.”

1.Which of the following best describes Peter’s word game?

A. It was made around 40 years ago.

B. It had game boards in different sizes.

C. It was kept in a plastic bag with a seal.

D. It had little pieces of wood in different colors.

2.What did the salesgirl probably think of Peter’s word game?

A. Old and handy. B. Rare and valuable.

C. Classic and attractive. D. Colorful and interesting.

3.What is the main theme of the story?

A. It’s important to keep a promise.

B. It’s great to share in other people’s happiness.

C. We should be grateful for the help from others.

D. Something rare is worth a large amount of money.

How to be more creative every day
Creativity isn't something you either have or don't have．In fact，it is something like playing the saxophone．（36）E So read on to know how．
?Be more curious．
It's important to seek out new viewpoints every day．（37）F To involve this in your daily life，make sure to keep an open mind when you're presented with an idea，and be curious as to what else is around the comer．

Letting every piece of information into your brain drags you from being creative．Try to apply a level of space into your everyday life．（38）C It helps to lead your thinking patterns away from potential distractions （分心的事物），leaving much room to have creative ideas．
?Try something new．
Frequent thinking patterns，in effect，cause you to be more likely to think the same things or make the same decisions over and over unless you get out of your comfort zone．（39）G Though not always easy，it does open up a whole new world of thinking!
?（40）B
Social media has created an environment where we're constantly shown whether we've succeeded in the form of likes or comments，which leads us to doubt ourselves．However，creativity is a journey，and you're learning every step of the way．Honestly，you'11learn much more from that than a straight win anyway．So be confident and tell yourself you have already done well enough．

A．Learn from failure．
B．Remind yourself you're good enough．
C．The 8 p．m．-8 a．m．phone ban is a great way to begin．
D．Getting physical really helps to sort out your brain space．
E．But it's not easy to feel or be automatically creative either．
F．Thus you can think and approach things from another angle．
G．Using your skills in a different area is a great way to think outside the box．

12．It was days or even weeks since I had been left on the island．My only companion was a dog called Philly which had survived the shipwreck．Memories of what happened were still fresh．
The magnificence of the ship had given us all a false sense of security．As the first signs of the storm started，our captain announced it was nothing much，just another storm．Yet，he was wrong!The storm hit the ship so badly that large holes were made at the sides of the ship．As the freezing water started rushing in，our ship was consumed quickly by the dark water．
My train of thought was disturbed by Philly licking my hand dearly．Are you hungry？I spoke my first words ever since the shipwreck occurred．Woof，woof!Barked Philly enthusiastically．At this moment，my stomach gave a loud growl，too．I could not remember when my last meal was，probably a ten-course dinner on the ship．As I had never fished before，I thought maybe I could try something simpler，like picking fruits．With Philly at my side，armed with a sharp branch，we walked into the forest on the island together．Suddenly I thought I heard noises．Could there be anyone else on this island？I wondered．As we were looking for fruit trees，we chanced upon one that bore yellow，juicy-looking fruit．Philly started barking-we had company．It was a dark-skinned woman，holding a sharp spear，dressed in fur and grass．I backed away from her，afraid that she would be aggressive．Then，I saw that she was trying to save us．Pointing her spear at the fruit tree，she shook her head strongly．
I nodded at her to show I understood what she was saying．Signaling to us to follow her，she turned to walk along a small path that I had never noticed．At the end of the small path，there was a small village．Tears of joy filled my eyes．

21．The writer had been left on the island becauseC．
A．the captain had deserted him．
B．he wanted to explore the island．
C．his ship had crashed in the storm

22．Which of the following statements is true about the dog Philly？B
A．He was friendly but aggressive．
B．He was also a survival of the shipwreck．
C．He had been brought to the ship by the writer．
D．He was left alone while the writer went for food．
23．The woman pointed her spear at the fruit tree intending to tell the writer thatB．
A．the fruits were not the best choice．
