22、t, they can be used to purchase charity meals donated to poor children in rural areas of China. In 2016, Liu, a then student of Tsinghua University, noticed a popular campaign called “Leftover Party”, where people brought their leftovers to eat together, intending to raise awareness of food waste. L

23、iu and his classmates organized one such event, which was attended by hundreds of people. The success encouraged him to spread the concept of reducing food waste to a wider audience.The idea of a mini-program struck him at a dinner in 2017 when Liu dined at a restaurant which rewarded diners who fin

24、ished off their food. Liu found that the restaurant would give these diners a card every time and offer them small gifts when they collected a certain number of cards. “Everyone who values food can enjoy a sense of gain at a lower cost,” Liu said, noting that such an idea could be realized online. H

25、e formed a team to work on the project. Yet it was quite a challenge for the AI system to identify the uploaded photos. Liu and his team, assisted by more than 1,000 others, spent half a year collecting over 100,000 samples across the country to train the digital brain.“There were so many uncertaint

26、ies in research and development. For our team members, the biggest challenge was whether we were confident enough to complete it,” Liu said. They not only achieved their goal, but now, the mini-program has more than five million registered users. “We hope to inspire everyone to take action against f

27、ood waste and to contribute Chinese wisdom and solutions to global food security challenges,” he added.24. What inspired Liu Jichen to create the mini-program?A A restaurants practice.B.

29、eful and considerate.CMy university has now topped the U.S. News & World Report rankings for 11 years running. Given Princetons success, you might think I would be a fan of the list. Not so. Dont get me wrong. I am proud of Princetons teaching, research and commitment to service. I like seeing our q

30、uality recognized. Rankings, however, are a misleading way to assess universities. Different schools have distinct strengths, structures and missions. The idea of picking one as “best”, as though educational programs competed like athletic teams, is strange.However, the U.S. News rankings attract gr

31、eat attention and a huge customer base. Applicants and their families rely on the rankings and feel pressure to get into highly regarded institutions. As a result, many schools make intense efforts to move up in the rankings. This competition produces damaging consequences. For example, some univers

32、ities avoid doing difficult but valuable thingssuch as admitting talented lower-income students who can succeed at university if given appropriate support.Still, students and families need comparative information to choose universities. If rankings mislead, what is the alternative? For generations,

33、buyers have turned to Consumer Reports for advice about almost everything except university education. When Consumer Reports evaluates a product, it assesses multiple factors so that potential buyers can make their own choice wisely. Similarly, university applicants need information about some basic

34、 variables. Graduation rates are crucial. A university that does not graduate its students is like a car with a bad maintenance (维修) record. It costs money without getting you anywhere. What applicants need is not the average graduation rate, but the rate for students with backgrounds like their own

35、. For example, some places successfully graduate their wealthy students but do less well for lower-income students. Applicants should also see some measure of post-graduation outcomes.Here is a partial list of other factors that matter: cost of tuition (学费) and fees; high-quality teachers actively e

36、ngaged in undergraduate instruction; and a learning culture composed of diverse students who study hard and educate one another. Judged by these criteria, many schools could be “Consumer Reports Best Buys”. Applicants should be excited to get into any of them; they should pick the one they find most

37、 appealing; and they should not waste time worrying about which is “the best”.It would be great to have a Consumer Reports for universities. I hope that some national publication will have the courage to produce an annual, user-friendly Consumer Reports-style analysis of higher education institution

38、s, even if it is not as attractive as a football-style set of rankings. In the meantime, those of us who understand the imperfection in the rankings must call them outeven when, indeed especially when, we finish at the top.27. What is the authors attitude towards university rankings?A. Supportive.B.

39、 Indifferent.C. Disapproving.D. Neutral.28. Why does the author mention Consumer Reports?A. To reveal the multiplicity of consumers.B. To present the information of potential buyers.C. To highlight the difficulty of choosing universities.D. To emphasize the need of overall evaluation of universities

40、.29. What can we learn from this passage?A. It is not likely to have a Consumer Reports for universities.B. The most suitable university for applicants may not rank the top.C. The average graduation rate is crucial to lower-income applicants.D. The top universities can see the imperfection in the ra

41、nkings better.30. What is the main idea of the passage?A. There is no such thing as a good or bad student.B. Education equality is an ideal hard to be realized.C. An alternative approach is needed to assess universities.D. Discrimination against poor students brings loss of talents.DIf theres one cl

42、ich (陈词滥调) that really annoys Danah Boyd, a specialist researcher who has made a career from studying the way teenagers use the web, its that of the digital native. “Today the world has computer-mediated communications. Thus, in order to learn about their social world around them, teenagers are lear

43、ning about those things too. And theyre using that to work out the stuff that kids have always worked out: peer (同龄人) sociality, status, etc.” she says.Its no surprise Boyd takes exception, really. As one of the first digital anthropologists to dig into the way teenagers use social networking sites,

44、 she gained insights into the social web by taking a closer look at what was going on.Lately, her work has been about explaining new ways of interpreting the behavior we see online. She outlined some examples at a recent conference in San Francisco, including the case of a young man from one of the

45、poorest districts of Los Angeles who was applying for a top American college. The applicant said he wanted to escape the influence of violence, but the admissions officer was shocked when he discovered that the boys MySpace page was covered with precisely the violent language he claimed to hate. “Wh

46、y was he lying about his motivations?” asked the university. “He wasnt,” said Boyd. “In his world, showing the right images online was a key part of surviving daily life.”Understanding whats happening online is especially important, for todays teenagers have a vastly different approach to privacy fr

47、om their parents. She says, “Adults think of the home as a very private space. Thats often not the case for teenagers because they have little or no control over who has access to it, or under what conditions. As a result, the online world can feel more private because it feels like theres more cont

48、rol.”The concept of control is central to Boyds work, and it applies to pointing out the true facts about teenage behavior. Boyd suggests control remains in the same places as it always did.“Technologists all go for the idea of techno-utopia (乌托邦), the web as great democratizer (民主化)”, she says. “Bu

49、t were not actually democratizing the whole system; were just shifting the way in which we discriminate.”Its a call to arms that most academic researchers would tend to sidestep, but then Boyd admits to treading a fine line between academics and activists. “The questions I continue to want to ask ar

50、e the things that are challenging to me；having to sit down and be forced to think about uncomfortable social stuff, and its really hard to get my head around it, which means its exactly what I should dive in and deal with, ” she says.31. What does Danah Boyd think of “computer-mediated communication

51、s”?A. They teach teenagers about social interaction.B. They replace other sorts of social interaction for teenagers.C. They are necessary for teenagers to have social interaction.D. They are barriers to wider social interaction among teenagers.32. Why does Danah Boyd cite the example of the Los Ange

52、les college applicant?A. To show how easy it is to investigate somebodys online activity.B. To explain how easy it is to misinterpret an individual online activity.C. To prove how important it is to check the content of someones online activity.D. To express how necessary it is to judge someones sin

53、cerity from his online activity.33. Danah Boyd argues in Paragraph 4 that_.A. parents tend not to respect teenagers need for online privacyB. teenagers are less concerned about privacy than their parentsC. teenagers feel more private in the online world than in the homeD. parents value the idea of p

54、rivacy less in a domestic environment34. It can be inferred from the last paragraph that Danah Boyd_.A. is willing to take on research challenges others would avoidB. regards herself as being more of an activist than a researcherC. is aware that she is lacking in ability to deal with the challengesD

56、 re-purposing a material into a new product of lesser quality. _35_Downcycling is also known as downstream recycling. It is most common in terms of industrial materials.

Another example of downcycling includes the use of plastic components.Giving products a new life is considered a good way to reuse materials and avoid waste. Once downcycled to th

58、eir full capacity, however, these materials are eventually so degraded that they cannot be reused further.

Durable plastic products in particular require much additional treatment. Trash bins, tables, and chairs are also considered materials with a high energy co

Liu and his classmates organized one such event, which was attended by hundreds of people. The success

108、encouraged him to spread the concept of reducing food waste to a wider audience.The idea of a mini-program struck him at a dinner in 2017 when Liu dined at a restaurant, which rewarded diners who finished off their food.

Given Princetons success, yo

118、u might think I would be a fan of the list. Not so. Dont get me wrong. I am proud of Princetons teaching, research and commitment to service. I like seeing our quality recognized. Rankings, however, are a misleading way to assess universities. Different schools have distinct strengths, structures an

119、d missions. The idea of picking one as “best”, as though educational programs competed like athletic teams, is strange.However, the U.S. News rankings attract great attention and a huge customer base. Applicants and their families rely on the rankings and feel pressure to get into highly regarded in

120、stitutions. As a result, many schools make intense efforts to move up in the rankings. This competition produces damaging consequences. For example, some universities avoid doing difficult but valuable thingssuch as admitting talented lower-income students who can succeed at university if given appr

121、opriate support.Still, students and families need comparative information to choose universities. If rankings mislead, what is the alternative? For generations, buyers have turned to Consumer Reports for advice about almost everything except university education. When Consumer Reports evaluates a pr

122、oduct, it assesses multiple factors so that potential buyers can make their own choice wisely. Similarly, university applicants need information about some basic variables. Graduation rates are crucial. A university that does not graduate its students is like a car with a bad maintenance (维修) record

123、. It costs money without getting you anywhere. What applicants need is not the average graduation rate, but the rate for students with backgrounds like their own. For example, some places successfully graduate their wealthy students but do less well for lower-income students. Applicants should also

124、see some measure of post-graduation outcomes.Here is a partial list of other factors that matter: cost of tuition (学费) and fees; high-quality teachers actively engaged in undergraduate instruction; and a learning culture composed of diverse students who study hard and educate one another. Judged by

125、these criteria, many schools could be “Consumer Reports Best Buys”. Applicants should be excited to get into any of them; they should pick the one they find most appealing; and they should not waste time worrying about which is “the best”.It would be great to have a Consumer Reports for universities

126、. I hope that some national publication will have the courage to produce an annual, user-friendly Consumer Reports-style analysis of higher education institutions, even if it is not as attractive as a football-style set of rankings. In the meantime, those of us who understand the imperfection in the

Neutral.28. Why does the author mention Consumer Reports?A. To reveal the multiplicity of consumers.B. To p

128、resent the information of potential buyers.C. To highlight the difficulty of choosing universities.D. To emphasize the need of overall evaluation of universities.29. What can we learn from this passage?A. It is not likely to have a Consumer Reports for universities.B. The most suitable university fo

129、r applicants may not rank the top.C. The average graduation rate is crucial to lower-income applicants.D. The top universities can see the imperfection in the rankings better.30. What is the main idea of the passage?A. There is no such thing as a good or bad student.B. Education equality is an ideal

130、 hard to be realized.C. An alternative approach is needed to assess universities.D. Discrimination against poor students brings loss of talents.【答案】27. C 28. D 29. B 30. C【解析】【分析】这是一篇议论文。文章主要讨论了大学排名是是一种误导性的评估方式，所以作者用其他的方法来评估大学。【详解】1.观点态度题。根据第一段中的“Rankings, however, are a misleading way to assess uni

131、versities.”(然而，排名是一种误导性的大学评估方式。)可知，作者认为排名是一种误导性的大学评估方式，由此可以推断出，作者对大学排名的态度是不赞成的，C选项“Disapproving”(反对的；不赞成的)符合，A. Supportive.支持的；B. Indifferent.漠不关心的；D. Neutral.中立的，均不符，故选C。2.推理判断题。根据第三段中的“If rankings mislead, what is the alternative? For generations, buyers have turned to Consumer Reports for advice

132、about almost everything except university education. When Consumer Reports evaluates a product, it assesses multiple factors so that potential buyers can make their own choice wisely. Similarly, university applicants need information about some basic variables.”(如果排名误导了别人，那还有什么选择呢？几代人以来，除了大学教育，消费者几乎

133、都是从消费者报告中获得各方面的建议。当消费者报告评估一个产品时，它评估了多个因素，以便潜在的买家能够明智地做出自己的选择。同样，大学申请者需要一些基本变量的信息。)可知，作者提到消费者报告是为了强调大学综合评价的必要性，故选D。3.推理判断题。根据倒数第二段中的“they should pick the one they find most appealing; and they should not waste time worrying about which is “the best”.”(他们应该挑选自己认为最有吸引力的学校，而不应该浪费时间担心哪一所学校是“最好的”。)可知，申请者应

134、该申请自己认为最有吸引力的学校而不是那些排名最好的学校，由此可以推断出最适合申请者的学校，不一定是排名最好的学校，故选B。4.主旨大意题。通读全文，尤其是最后一段中的“It would be great to have a Consumer Reports for universities. I hope that some national publication will have the courage to produce an annual, user-friendly Consumer Reports-style analysis of higher education insti

135、tutions, even if it is not as attractive as a football-style set of rankings.”(如果能有一份大学的消费者报告就好了。我希望一些全国性的出版物有勇气对高等教育机构进行一年一度、用户友好型的消费者报告分析，即使它不像足球式的排名那么有吸引力也没关系。)可知，文章主要讲述了大学排名是是一种误导性的评估方式，所以要用其他的方法来评估大学，即大学需要另一种评估方式。故选C。DIf theres one clich (陈词滥调) that really annoys Danah Boyd, a specialist resear

136、cher who has made a career from studying the way teenagers use the web, its that of the digital native. “Today the world has computer-mediated communications. Thus, in order to learn about their social world around them, teenagers are learning about those things too. And theyre using that to work ou

137、t the stuff that kids have always worked out: peer (同龄人) sociality, status, etc.” she says.Its no surprise Boyd takes exception, really. As one of the first digital anthropologists to dig into the way teenagers use social networking sites, she gained insights into the social web by taking a closer l

138、ook at what was going on.Lately, her work has been about explaining new ways of interpreting the behavior we see online. She outlined some examples at a recent conference in San Francisco, including the case of a young man from one of the poorest districts of Los Angeles who was applying for a top A

139、merican college. The applicant said he wanted to escape the influence of violence, but the admissions officer was shocked when he discovered that the boys MySpace page was covered with precisely the violent language he claimed to hate. “Why was he lying about his motivations?” asked the university.

140、“He wasnt,” said Boyd. “In his world, showing the right images online was a key part of surviving daily life.”Understanding whats happening online is especially important, for todays teenagers have a vastly different approach to privacy from their parents. She says, “Adults think of the home as a ve

141、ry private space. Thats often not the case for teenagers because they have little or no control over who has access to it, or under what conditions. As a result, the online world can feel more private because it feels like theres more control.”The concept of control is central to Boyds work, and it

142、applies to pointing out the true facts about teenage behavior. Boyd suggests control remains in the same places as it always did.“Technologists all go for the idea of techno-utopia (乌托邦), the web as great democratizer (民主化)”, she says. “But were not actually democratizing the whole system; were just

143、 shifting the way in which we discriminate.”Its a call to arms that most academic researchers would tend to sidestep, but then Boyd admits to treading a fine line between academics and activists. “The questions I continue to want to ask are the things that are challenging to me；having to sit down an

144、d be forced to think about uncomfortable social stuff, and its really hard to get my head around it, which means its exactly what I should dive in and deal with, ” she says.31. What does Danah Boyd think of “computer-mediated communications”?A. They teach teenagers about social interaction.B. They r

145、eplace other sorts of social interaction for teenagers.C. They are necessary for teenagers to have social interaction.D. They are barriers to wider social interaction among teenagers.32. Why does Danah Boyd cite the example of the Los Angeles college applicant?A. To show how easy it is to investigat

146、e somebodys online activity.B To explain how easy it is to misinterpret an individual online activity.C. To prove how important it is to check the content of someones online activity.D To express how necessary it is to judge someones sincerity from his online activity.33. Danah Boyd argues in Paragr

It can be inferred from

148、 the last paragraph that Danah Boyd_.A. is willing to take on research challenges others would avoidB. regards herself as being more of an activist than a researcherC. is aware that she is lacking in ability to deal with the challengesD. feels like abandoning the research into uncomfortable social s

149、tuff【答案】31. C 32. B 33. C 34. A【解析】【导语】本文是一篇议论文。数字人类学家Danah Boyd深入研究青少年使用社交网站方式，她指出：青少年在网络上的行为很容易被误解，他们在网络世界里隐私感更强。【31题详解】推理判断题。根据第一段中Danah Boyd 所说的话“Today the world has computer-mediated communications. Thus, in order to learn about their social world around them, teenagers are learning about those

150、 things too.(今天，世界已经有了以计算机为媒介的通信。因此，为了了解他们周围的社会世界，青少年也在学习这些东西)”可推知，Danah Boyd认为“以计算机为媒介的通信”是青少年进行社会互动所必需的渠道。故选C。【32题详解】推理判断题。文章第三段列举了一位来自洛杉矶最贫困地区的年轻人申请美国顶尖大学的例子，根据段中“The applicant said he wanted to escape the influence of violence, but the admissions officer was shocked when he discovered that the b

151、oys MySpace page was covered with precisely the violent language he claimed to hate. “Why was he lying about his motivations?” asked the university.“He wasnt, ” said Boyd. “In his world, showing the right images online was a key part of surviving daily life.” (申请人说他想逃离暴力的影响，但是当招生官发现男孩的MySpace页面上满是他声

152、称讨厌的那些暴力语言时，他感到非常震惊。“他为什么对自己的动机撒谎?”所申请的大学问。“他没有（撒谎），”Boyd说。“在他的世界里，在网上展示正确的图片是日常生活的一个关键部分” )”可知，那个男孩申请的大学对他在网上的行为有所误解，认为他撒谎。但是Boyd认为那个男孩没有撒谎，并解释他在网上的那些有暴力语言的图片反映了他在日常生活中是怎样生存的。因此可以推断，Boyd举出这个例子是为了说明一个人的网上活动是多么容易被误解。故选B。【33题详解】细节理解题。根据第四段“Adults think of the home as a very private space. Thats often

153、not the case for teenagers because they have little or no control over who has access to it, or under what conditions. As a result, the online world can feel more private because it feels like theres more control. (成年人认为家是一个非常私人的空间。对于青少年来说，情况往往不是这样，因为他们很少能或根本无法控制谁或者在什么条件下会进入（他们的隐私空间）。因此，网络世界感觉更私密，因为

154、它感觉有更多的控制)”可知，Danah Boyd认为青少年在网络世界里比在家里感觉更有隐私。故选C。【34题详解】推理判断题。根据最后一段“Its a call to arms that most academic researchers would tend to sidestep, but then Boyd admits to treading a fine line between academics and activists. The questions I continue to want to ask are the things that are challenging to

155、 me; having to sit down and be forced to think about uncomfortable social stuff, and its really hard to get my head around it, which means its exactly what I should dive in and deal with, she says.(这是一个大多数学术研究人员往往会回避的战斗号召，但Boyd承认，他在学术和活动家之间走了一条微妙的线。她说：“我一直想问的问题对我来说是具有挑战性的；我不得不坐下来，被迫思考不舒服的社交问题，这真的很难让

156、我的脑袋转过去，这意味着这正是我应该投入和处理的。”)”可推知，Danah Boyd 认为大多数学术研究人员都倾向于回避，但是她觉得这些问题对她来说是挑战。这些问题很难理解，而这正是她应该深入研究探讨的。因此可以推断，Boyd愿意接受其他人可能会回避的挑战。故选A。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白处的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。选项中有两项为多余选项。Once considered an optional lifestyle choice, recycling has become a commonplace activity i

(当产品达到代码7时，它被认为不再可回收。)”可知，上文指的是产品代码为7时就不能再回收

171、了。选项E“This usually occurs when a substance is blended with other substances, such as different types of plastic with various recycling codes.(这通常发生在一种物质与其他物质混合时，例如具有不同的回收代码的不同类型的塑料。)”是上文内容的自然延续，指的是具有不同的回收代码的不同类型的塑料混合后就被认为不再可回收。故选E。第三部分 书面表达（共两节，共32分）第一节（共4小题；第40、41题各2分，第42题3分，第43题5分，共12分）In 1983, Ho

Emotional intelligence is critical for success in almost any field and it is especially important for high-stress environments, for
