【題目】 Cala didn’t like us. Any of us. We didn’t do anything to offend her and she didn’t know us but that didn’t matter; she still didn’t like us.

As new teachers in the Emirati school, we Westerners greeted her every day. She ignored us. She came into our rooms and bypassed us as she shook hands with all the non-Westerners. Whenever we saw her, she avoided eye contact with us. Eventually, we stopped trying to befriend her.

I wouldn’t say her nationality but her friends had been fired from the school. We had been employed in their places and that was enough for her to have nothing to do with us.

Well after 16 months in the school we had a secret friend gifting. To my surprise, I drew her name from the glass jar and that meant she was my secret friend. My role was to buy her a gift and say something about her when we publicly acknowledged who our secret friend was.

I decided to gift her a coloured bangle（手鐲）. I added a postcard and wrote “Love and Blessings, Rose Marie.

Then came the day. We all gathered in the meeting room. When you gave your gift, you said a few kind words about your secret friend and passed the gift to her. What could I say? Everyone knew she didn’t like the Westerners. She taught music in the school so I said “My secret friend is someone who brings music to our ears every day.” She came forward with a huge warm smile. She hugged me and kissed me on both cheeks and accepted my gift.

Since then, she smiles often. We hug and shake hands when we meet. I have seen her wear my gift several times and I am so pleased.

【1】

細(xì)節(jié)理解題。由第三段“I wouldn’t say her nationality but her friends had been fired from the school. We had been employed in their places and that was enough for her to have nothing to do with us.”可知，Cala 的朋友被學(xué)校解雇了，我們頂替了她朋友的位置，因此Cala 不想與我們有瓜葛。所以 Cala 不喜歡西方老師的原因是因?yàn)槲覀冺斕媪怂笥训穆毼弧９蔬xA項(xiàng)。

推理判斷題。由倒數(shù)第二段“She came forward with a huge warm smile. She hugged me and kissed me on both cheeks and accepted my gift.”以及最后一段“Since then, she smiles often. We hug and shake hands when we meet. I have seen her wear my gift several times and I am so pleased.”可知，Cala 在收到我的禮物后很開(kāi)心，她接受了我的禮物，并給了我一個(gè)大大的擁抱和吻。在那之后，她經(jīng)常對(duì)我微笑，我們見(jiàn)面的時(shí)候她會(huì)和我很友好地?fù)肀帐�。我還見(jiàn)過(guò)她戴著我送給她的禮物。我很開(kāi)心。由 smile 以及 pleased 這樣一些字眼可以判斷整個(gè)故事的結(jié)局是很美好的。故選B項(xiàng)。

【4】

主旨大意題。文章講述了我用真誠(chéng)和友好成功地扭轉(zhuǎn)了 Cala 對(duì)我的印象，收獲一枚真心朋友的美好故事。我通過(guò)“給秘密朋友送禮物”的活動(dòng)向 Cala 伸出了橄欖枝，給她送禮物并真心贊美她，最終我用自己的真誠(chéng)和智慧贏(yíng)得了友誼，我的善行獲得了回報(bào)。C項(xiàng)是說(shuō)做好事會(huì)獲得回報(bào)。故選C項(xiàng)。

推理判斷題是考查學(xué)生透過(guò)文章表面的文字信息進(jìn)行分析、綜合、歸納等邏輯推理的能力。推理和判斷必須以事實(shí)為依據(jù)，切莫主觀(guān)臆斷。那些文章中直接陳述的內(nèi)容不能選，要選擇根據(jù)文章推理出來(lái)的選項(xiàng)；推理不是憑空猜測(cè)，而是立足已知推斷未知，作出正確答案時(shí)一定要在文中找到依據(jù)或理由；要忠實(shí)于原文，以文章提供的事實(shí)和線(xiàn)索為依據(jù)。不能以自己的觀(guān)點(diǎn)代替作者的想法，不要脫離原文主觀(guān)臆斷。本文第3小題需要綜合分析上下文信息來(lái)判斷故事的結(jié)局，由 smile 以及 pleased 這樣一些字眼可以判斷整個(gè)故事的結(jié)局是很美好的。故選B項(xiàng)。

【題目】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.

Standing desks have been praised for their positive effects on physical health, reducing sitting time and lowering certain health risks linked to a sedentary( 久坐的) lifestyle. But could standing desks have positive mental effects?

New research suggests that students may think best when they are on their feet. It offers some of the first evidence of mental benefits of standing desks in classrooms.

Testing was done on high school freshmen who used standing desks, evaluating them at the beginning and end of the school year. Dr. Ranjana Mehta, an assistant professor at the Texas A&M School of Public Health, led the experiments aiming to assess standing desks’ mental benefits.

Through computerized tests, students’ executive functions were evaluated. Executive functions are the cognitive skills used to analyze tasks and break them into steps, and are directly related to academic needs like time management, memorizing facts and solving multi-step problems. These functions are largely controlled by frontal(前額的) brain regions, so researchers used a portable brain-imaging device to examine any related changes.

“Test results indicated that continued use of standing desks was associated with significant improvements in executive functions and working memory abilities,” Mehta said. “Changes in corresponding brain activation patterns were also observed.”

“Interestingly, our research showed the use of standing desks improved mental function, which is consistent with results from previous studies on school-based exercise programs,” Mehta noted.

Policymakers, public health professionals and school administrators should consider the positive effects of standing desks and make some simple changes in classrooms that will have the potential to increase energy expenditure and develop cognitive skills. That would be a valuable contribution to the educational world.

【題目】 Slowly but surely, we're moving closer and closer to 5G world. From smart-home security to self-driving cars, all the internet-connected devices in our life will be able to talk to each other at lightning-fast speeds with reduced delay. Objectively speaking, the fastest 4G download speeds in the US top out at an average of 19. 42 Mbps. But by comparison 5G promises gigabit （千兆）speeds.

“5G is one of those heralds （使者），along with artificial intelligence , of this coming data age.” said Steve Koenig, senior director of market research for the Consumer Technology Association. “The self-driving vehicle is a great emblem of this data age，and that is to say，it is a sign of time, because with one single task, driving, you have massive amounts of data coming from the vehicle itself, and a variety of sensors are collecting a lot of information to model its environment as it moves. It's pulling in data from other vehicles about road conditions down the lane. It could be weather information, and also connected infrastructure （基礎(chǔ)設(shè)施）construction. There is lots of data behind that task, which is why we need the high speed.

And virtual reality glasses and headsets haven't yet broken the mainstream, but tech companies are joyfully betting that these devices will eventually replace our smart phones. With 5G, that could actually happen. This is notable because companies such as Apple are reportedly developing AR glasses to assist— or even replace — smart phones.

Ericsson stated at February's Mobile World Congress how smart glasses could become faster and lighter with a 5G connection, because instead of being weighed down with components, the glasses could rely on hardware for processing power.

But don't get too excited. There is still a lot of work to be done in the meantime, including various trials to make sure the radios play nicely with hardware and infrastructure construction so 5G isn't concentrated only in big cities.

【1】What is the first paragraph mainly about?

A.A right security of 5G.B.The super speed of 5G.

C.A potential dream of 5G.D.The present world of 5G.

【2】What do some tech companies expect of virtual reality glasses?

A.They will be heavier than present ones.

B.They will process power on their own.

C.They will serve people instead of smart phones.

D.They will bring a big fortune to tech companies.

【3】What will the author tell us in the next paragraph?

A.How to fully expand 5G coverage.

B.How to effectively reduce 5G trials.

C.How to nicely operate 5G hardware.

D.How to widely construct 5G big cities.
