阅读下列短文，从每题所给的 A、B、C 和 D 四个选项中，选出最佳选项。
A
Given Europe’s high concentration of gorgeous big cities and world-class art
museums, it is easy to completely overlook the continent’s abundance of small, quiet
villages and towns. However, if you are after relaxation, peaceful country walks,
beautiful architecture and opportunities for cultural appreciation on your next trip across
the pond, consider cutting down some of your city time and head out to a village
instead. Here are four of the most charming villages in Europe, along with our top picks
for places to stay in each.
Eze in Cota D’Azur, France
Set on a hilltop overlooking the Mediterranean Sea, the Provencal township of Eze
is easily one of the most picturesque spots in the region. It is largely a tourist
destination, and many of its buildings date back to the Middle Age. In fact, Eze is
particularly popular with couples seeking romantic solitude.
Hotel pick: Chateau de la Chevre
Baden-Baden in Wurttemberg, Germany
Germany’s best-known spa town, Baden-Baden, in the Black Forest of
Baden-Wurttemberg, has been a popular spot for soaking in mineral-rich waters off and
on since the Roman era. And while spa treatments and hot springs are still among the
most popular draws for tourists, there are also plenty of museums, gardens, performing
arts venues and charming old buildings and churches.
Hotel pick: Hotel Belle Epoque
Montepulciano in Tuscany, Italy
Spread over a hilltop nearly 2,000 metres above sea level, the Tuscan village of
Montepulciano offers gorgeous Renaissance architecture as well as opportunities to visit
wine companies. Surrounded by strong walls dating back to the 14th century, the village
features a handful of churches and public squares.
Hotel pick: Etruria Resort
Oia in Santorini, Greece
Oia is undoubtedly the most charming village on the beautiful Greek island of
Santorini. This oft-photographed cliffside town is best known as a sunset-viewing spot,
but it is fantastic any time of day thanks to its abundance of typical whitewashed
structures topped with blue domes plus its fabulous views out onto the Aegean Sea.
Hotel pick: Hotel Aspaki
21. Which village will newly-married couples most possibly choose to spend their
honeymoon?

In my career as an educator and health care provider, I have worked with numerous
children infected with AIDS. The relationships that I have had with these special kids
have been gifts in my life. They have taught me so many things, but I have especially
learned that great courage can be found in the smallest of packages. Let me tell you
about Tyler.
Tyler was born infected with HIV; his mother was also infected. From the very
beginning of his life, he was dependent on medication to enable him to survive. When
he was five, he had a tube surgically inserted in a vein(血管) in his chest. This tube was
connected to a pump, which he carried in a small backpack on his back. Medications
were fastened to this pump and were continuously supplied through this tube to his
bloodstream. At times, he also needed extra oxygen to support his breathing.
Tyler wasn’t willing to give up one single moment of his childhood to this deadly
disease. It was not unusual to find him playing and racing around his backyard, wearing
his medicine backpack. All of us were surprised at his pure joy in being alive and the
energy it gave him. Tyler’s mom often teased him by telling him that he moved so fast
that she needed to dress him in red. That way, she could quickly spot him.
This terrible disease eventually wore down Tyler. He grew quite ill and,
unfortunately, so did his HIV-infected mother. When it became apparent that he wasn’t
going to survive, Tyler’s mom talked to him about death. She comforted him by telling
Tyler that she was dying too, and that he would be with him soon in heaven.
A few days before his death, Tyler signed me over to his hospital bed and
whispered, “I might die soon. I’m not scared. When I die, please dress me in red. Mom
promised she’s coming to heaven, too. I’ll be playing when she gets there, and I want to
make sure she can find me.”
24. What does the writer think of his/her work according to Paragraph 1?
A. It’s impressive. B. It’s regretful.
C. It’s funny. D. It’s meaningless.
25. What happened to Tyler when he was five?
A. He was infected with HIV. B. He was operated on.
C. He received a gift. D. He became seriously ill.
26. How did the writer feel when seeing Tyler playing joyfully?
A. Light-hearted. B. Encouraged.
C. Terrified D. Amazed.
27. What can be inferred from the boy’s last words?
A. He was grateful for the writer’s kindness.
B. He felt sorry for his mom’s death.
C. His mother had a deep affection for him.
D. He missed the red dress his mother promised him.
C
The Indian government may use 3D paintings as virtual speed breakers（减速带）
on major highways and roads, in order to check speeding and careless driving, and
finally make its deadly roads a little safer. “We are trying out 3D paintings used as
virtual speed breakers to avoid unnecessary requirements of speed breakers,” India’s
transport minister Nitin Gadkari wrote.
The optical illusions( 视觉错觉) are supposed to encourage drivers to slow down
automatically. Earlier, India had ordered the removal of all speed breakers from
highways, which are considered to be a safety hazard for high-speed vehicles. India has
the highest number of road accident deaths in the world. According to the World Health
Organization, over 200,000 people are killed by road accidents.
The use of optical illusions as speed breakers was first pioneered in the American
city of Philadelphia in 2008, as part of a campaign against speeding motorists. The
technique has also been tried out in China to create floating 3D crossings. In India,
cities such as Ahmedabad and Chennai have already experimented with 3D zebra
crossings in the last one year. In Ahmedabad for instance, a mother and her daughter,
both artists, have painted 3D crosswalks in the first few months of 2016. The artists say
their motto is “to increase the attention of drivers”, and that the concept has been
successfully tested in accident-prone zones on a highway.
However, critics argue that once drivers know that these speed breakers are visual
illusions, they may ignore them. Others also point out that India’s decision does not
consider the safety of a large number of pedestrians. In the end, the new policy may be
just one step towards improving road safety.
28. Why are 3D paintings used on main highways and roads?
A. To make the surroundings more beautiful.
B. To attract the attention of tourists.
C. To reduce the rate of traffic accidents.
D. To try out this kind of new painting.
29. The underlined word “hazard” in paragraph 2 can be replaced by “__________”.
A. Threat B. Reminder C. Regulation D. Theory
30. What can we learn from Paragraph 3 and 4?
A. The idea tested in Ahmedabad recently has been a failure.
B. The new policy of 3D zebra crossings must be carried out.
C. Philadelphia is the second place to use virtual speed breakers in the US.
D. The use of optical illusions as speed breakers is debatable in India.
31. What’s the author’s attitude towards 3D zebra crossings?
A. Indifferent. B Objective. C. Supportive. D. Critical.
D
The United Arab Emirates is mostly a desert. However, this has not stopped the
country from creating great building projects. On September 26, UAE officials
announced another ambitious project-Mars Science City. Expansive deserts and miles of
coastline provide plenty of options for safe rocket launches(发射). And its position on
the Earth makes it especially appealing as the spin of the Earth provides an extra push,
meaning less fuel is needed to get payloads into orbit. All these seem to make it
possible.
The Mars City Project, designed by Bjarke Ingels Group, or BIG, will provide a
realistic model to simulate(模仿) living on the surface of Mars, the red planet. It is part
of the UAE’s Mars 2117 Project to lead the global race to land humans on Mars and be
the first to build a settlement there. Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid, Prime Minister and
ruler of Dubai, says, “The UAE seeks international support to develop technologies that
benefit humans, and lay the foundation of a better future for more generations to come.”
Built outside Dubai, the 1.9 million square feet city is expected to cost $135
million. It will consist of several dome-shaped laboratories, similar to the ones imagined
for the first Mars settlers. Scientists from around the world will be invited to conduct
research to come up with methods to create food, water and energy, using techniques
which can be copied onto the red planet’s conditions as much as possible.
The research city will also include a museum featuring famous space achievements
to help educate and inspire children to undertake space exploration and discovery. To
discover whether the construction method works on Mars, the museum’s walls will be
3D printed using the sand from the nearby desert. Now, if they would only add some
living quarters for the general public to experience life on Mars without leaving Earth,
life would be perfect.
32. What can we conclude about the United Arab Emirates?
A. It is short of fine weather.
B. It is a nice place for launching.
C. It can provide adequate fuel supply.
D. It has the greatest architects in the world.
33. What will scientists do in the laboratories?
A. Educate visitors on trips to Mars.
B. Develop the Mars settlers’ imagination.
C. Find ways to produce food, water and energy on Mars.
D. Create a climate-controlled environment for future use.
34. Why will the museum’ walls be 3D printed?
A. To show famous space technologies.
B. To make full use of the nearby desert.
C. To inspire children to love exploration.
D. To test building skills used by Mars settlers.
35. What’s the best title for the text?
A. UAE to Build Mars Science City
B. UAE’s Great Exploration of Mars
C. UAE to Build First Mars Settlement
D. UAE’s Scientific Contribution to Humans
第二节（共 5 小题；每小题 2 分，满分 10 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。
Have you used “um…” “like…” “you know…” in your speech? Crutch words(口
头禅) are unnecessary words used to fill up dead paces while you speak. Speaking too
many crutch words is like a bad habit that we are unaware of. While most people tend to
ignore it in everyday conversation, in a formal speech or an interview, too many crutch
words can make even the best presentation look bad. 36
Stop when we are in doubt. Crutch words are used more often when a person is
unsure about the sentence to use next. 37 If you are lost or in doubt over what to
say next, just stop speaking, take a long pause, breathe in , figure out what to say and
start again.
Speak consciously and slowly. If the speech is too long and you talk continuously
without thinking, then you might also be pushing in a few crutch words in between.
38 It is best to memorize the tricky parts of the speech, like the introduction and the
conclusion where a majority of the crutch words are used.
39 Preparing for the speech is very important when trying to remove crutch
words. Make it a point to pause when there is a comma or give two pauses at the end of
the sentence. If certain words in the speech need to be emphasized then underline them
and practice them as they need to be said.
Avoid crutch words in conversations. Get a friend or your partner to help you out
when rehearsing a conversation. 40 Although it can be an unpleasant and often
embarrassing process, in the long run it helps in cutting down on crutch words.
A. Practice your speech when you can.
B. Remember the saying that silence is golden.
C. Therefore we can find out best friends to guide us well.
D. Anytime you use a crutch word, the friend can point it out.
E. So we should learn some ways to avoid speaking such words.
F. Structure the speech well to include as much information as is needed.
G. The mind is so busy trying to figure out what to say that there is a strong urge to
speak such words.
