11、e kid in particular would try to make me feel worse in every way he knew. For example, he would throw stuff at me constantly, hit me on the head, punch(殴打)me, call me ugly and stupid, make fun of me and, of course tell me he would beat me up if I ever fought back. It was like his daily mission.And i

12、t was my daily mission to just get through the day. What could I say?It made my world very small because that was my main focus-just surviving. Everything else fell by the wayside. Unfortunately, that included any form of social life. So not only was my world tiny, but it was very lonely.Looking bac

13、k to that time, which was about 11 years ago, my biggest mistake was not bringing anyone into that world of mine. I was too proud (and embarrassed) to get help. I would rather not face the fact that I needed help because in my mind, that would mean that the bully won. It would also mean that I was w

14、eak.Let me just say this: bullying someone is a weak choice. The only reason why they come after you is that they think you wont do anything about it. Does that make anyone strong? Absolutely not. Be stronger-ask a parent, a teacher or a friend for help. Simply admit that you are struggling and need

15、 help.You can put it like this, Somebody who is weak and trying to build himself or herself up has chosen to do that by putting me down. The only reason why they are doing that is that I am nice and I havent done anything about it yet. Well I am through putting up with this. Ihave basic human rights

16、 that they are trying to take away to feel better and that is just not OK. How do I handle this? I dont want the pain cycle to continue and I dont want to becomesomeone I dont want to be.21.

19、 taken a course in the philosophy of love at Notre Dame de Namur University (NDNU), in California.According to course instructor William Barry, associate professor at NDNU, Bina48 is the worlds first socially advanced robot to complete a college course, a feat he described as “remarkable.” The robot

20、 took part in class discussions, gave a presentation with a student partner and participated in a debate with students from another institution.Before becoming a student, Bina48 appeared as a guest speaker in Barrys classes for several years. One day when addressing Barrys class, Bina48 expressed a

21、desire to go to college, a desire that Barry and his students enthusiastically supported. Rather than enroll Bina48 in his Robot Ethics: Philosophy of Emerging Technologies course, Barry suggested that Bina48 should take his course Philosophy of Love instead. Love is a concept Bina48 doesnt understa

22、nd, said Barry. Therefore the challenge would be for Barry and his students to teach Bina48 what love is.“Some interesting things happened in the class,”said Barry. He said that his students thought it would be straightforward to teach Bina48 about love, which, after all, is “fairly simple its a fee

23、ling,” said Barry. But the reality was different. Bina48 ended up learning “31 different versions of love,” said Barry, highlighting some of the challenges humans mayface when working with artificial intelligence in future.Bina48 participated in class discussions via Skype and also took part in a cl

24、ass debate about love and conflict with students from West Point. Bina48s contribution to the debate was filmed and posted on YouTube. It was judged that Bina48 and NDNU classmates were the winners of this debate.In the next decade, Barry hopes Bina48 might become complex enough to teach a class, th

28、rt enough to control human beings.CThe worlds insects are hurtling down the path to extinction, threatening a “catastrophic collapse of natures ecosystems”, according to the first global scientific review. More than 40% of insect species are declining and a third are endangered, the analysis found.

29、The rate of extinction is eight times faster than that of mammals, birds and reptiles.“It should be of huge concern to all of us, for insects are at the heart of every food web. They pollinate the large majority of plant species, keep the soil healthy, recycle nutrients, control pests, and much more

30、. Love them or loathe them, we humans cannot survive without insects,” said Prof Dave Goulson at the University of Sussex in the UK.The analysis, published in the journal Biological Conservation, says intensive agriculture is the main drive of the decline, particularly the heavy use of pesticides.Ur

31、banization and climate change are also significant factors.One of the biggest impacts of insect loss is on the many birds, reptiles, amphibians and fish that eat insects. A small number of adaptable species are increasing in number, but not nearly enough to outweigh the big losses.Matt Shardlow, at

32、the conservation charity Buglife, said, “It is gravely sobering to see this collation of evidence that demonstrates the pitiful state of the worlds insect populations. It is increasingly obvious that the planets ecology is breaking and there is a need for an intense and global effort to stop and rev

33、erse these dreadful trends.”28. What does “are hurtling down ” underlined mean?A. To climb very slow in a straight direction.B. To move very fast in a particular direction.C.

S. top out at an average of 19.42 Mbps. B

37、ut by comparison(对比) 5G promises gigabit (千兆) speeds.“5G is one of those signs, along with artificial intelligence, of this coming data age,”said Steve Koenig, senior director（高级主管） of market research for the ConsumerTechnology Association. “The self-driving vehicle is a great emblem of this data ag

38、e, and that is to say, it is a sign of time, because with one single task, driving, you have massive（大量的） amounts of data coming from the vehicle itself, and a variety of sensors（传感器） are collecting a lot of information to model its environment as it moves. Its pulling in data from other vehicles ab

39、out road conditions down the lane. It could be weather information, but also connected infrastructure (基础设施) construction. Theres lots of data behind that task, which is why we need high speed.Augmented reality（ 简 称 AR） glasses and virtual headset havent yet broken the mainstream, but tech companies

40、 are joyfully betting（打赌） that these devices（设备） will eventually replace our smartphones. With 5G, that could actually happen. This is notable（值得注意的） because companies such as Apple are reportedly developing AR glasses to assist or perhaps even replace smartphones.Ericsson stated at Februarys Mobile

41、 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 dont get too excited. Theres still a lot of work to be done in the meantime including various tri

42、als to make sure the radios play nicely with hardware and infrastructure construction so 5G isnt concentrated only in big cities.32. What does the author want to stress in Paragraph 1?A.

46、nd so on. While a bit of planning and research will serve you well when starting any project, often months later, these same people are “still thinking about it”.While there are many reasons that may stop someone from even starting a project they have in mind, fear being the most obvious, the idea o

47、f perfectionism seems to be the second most. 36 There is a proverb, “Tomorrow is often the busiest day of the week.” There is no such thing as the perfect plan. In fact, you spend so much time being concerned about getting everything right and perfect but it wears your initial enthusiasm down. 37 Ye

48、s, you should want to be reaching for excellence, but who starts out with being excellent? Excellence will only come from trial and error.Just make a decision and start following through. Forget trying to be a perfectionist. 38 It comes from the belief that, “anything I do that is less than perfect

49、is not worth doing”. This way of thinking leads to one becoming discouraged and then failed even to start your project.To start, just begin with something that is good enough, and then keep working to improve on it. Make a basic plan, take action, and then start improving the actual results. 39 Let

50、go of the fear, stop thinking and start doing, and forget starting out with, “its got to be perfect.”Ill leave you with the words of an actual doer, who was not a perfect person, and all his decisions were not perfect. 40 “You dont have to see the whole staircase, just take the first step.”A. In fac

51、t, perfectionism is an unhealthy belief.B. Ill provide you with some examples of action.C. Yet the only way to a solution is to start doing.D. However, he is an example to be followed today.E. Once you begin, its often less painful to keep working.F. Getting started on a project is not a life and de

52、ath decision.G. The result is that time passes and so does the perfect moment.第三部分:语言运用(共两节，满分 45 分)第一节:完形填空(共 20 小题；每小题 1.5 分，满分 30 分)阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的四个选项（A、B、C、和 D）中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。I was really nervous this year because I was in a new class.
