For the blanks with a given word, fill in each blank with the proper form of the given word; for the other blanks,use one word that best fits each bla

16、nk.( A )After two weeks in Finland enjoying a much-needed family vacation, I was home in California checking my mail when I saw a letter from the IRS(国税局)，I thought, Finally! Theyve sent my refund! Wrong. It was a letter _21_ (say) my identity theft claim had been received and they opened a case. Th

17、e odd thing was, I had never filed a claim. I was puzzled, so the first thing I did was call the IRS. I found out that someone had filed _22_ tax return in my name in January, two months before I usually file. He or she had created a direct deposit account with no name specified and has also filed a

18、 change of address _23_ _23_ my mail would be redirected to an old address of mine._24_ the criminal investigation unit of the IRS had signaled that tax return as fraudulent(欺诈的) , a $1400 refund was still sent to the direct deposit account with no name _25_ (attach) to it. I couldnt believe it. Whe

19、n my real return arrived in March, the IRS realized that identity theft _26_ (occur) and began sending me letters informing me _27_ the theft and the delay of my refund. But I never got those letters because they were sent to my old address and then stolen. I had a real mess to clean up. I had to fi

20、le a form requesting that the IRS trace my refund to see _28_ had received it. The rep also said that I needed to call the Federal Trade Commission, the Social Security office, my bank, my tax preparer, and one of the credit bureaus _29_ (alert) them about what had happened. I also got a special PIN

21、 to put on my returns going forward, _30_ (indicate) that I had experienced identity theft.I finally got my refund money months later. I never found out who stole my identity or whether the crook or crooks were ever caught. I will have to take precautions for the rest of my life.( B )There seems nev

22、er _31_ (be) a civilization without toys, but when and how they developed is unknown. They probably came about just to give children something to do. In the ancient world, as is today, most boys played with some kinds of toys and most girls with _32_. In most of the communities _33_ social roles are

23、 rigidly determined, boys pattern their play after the activities of their fathers and girls _34_ (prepare), even in play, to step into the roles and responsibilities of the adult world._35_ is remarkable about the history of toys is not so much how they changed over the centuries _36_ how much they

24、 have remained the same. The changes have been mostly in terms of craftsmanship, mechanics, and technology. It is the universality of toys with regard to their development in all parts of the world and their persistence to the present _37_ is amazing. In Egypt, America, China, Japan and among the Ar

25、ctic people, generally the same kinds of toys appeared. Variations depended on local customs and ways of life _38_ toys imitate their surroundings. Nearly every civilization had dolls, little weapons, toy soldiers, tiny animals and vehiclesBecause toys can be generally regarded as a kind of art form

26、, they have not been likely to be influenced by technological leaps _39_ characterize inventions for adult use. The progress from the wheel to the cart to the automobile is a direct line of ways up. The progress from a rattle (拨浪鼓)used by a baby in 3,000 BC to _40_ used by an infant today, however,

27、is not characterized by inventiveness. Each rattle is the product of the artistic tastes of the times and subject to the limitations of available materials.Section BDirections: Complete the following passage by using the words in the box. Each word can only be used once. Note that there is one word

28、more than you need. (A)A. tracking B. scale C. resembles D. implemented AB. associated AC. prescribedAD. calculated BC. approximately BD. actually CD. experimenting ABC. participatingWhen is healthy food the best medicine? When it is free.That old saying “An apple a day keeps the doctor away” may ho

29、ld some truth. In fact, one study found that in 2012, almost half of the deaths in America caused by heart disease, stroke, and type 2 diabetes were linked to poor diet.But knowing you should eat healthfully and _41_ doing it are two different things, and making the right choice isnt any easier when

30、 a pound of grapes costs more than twice as much as a pound of pasta. The Fresh Food Pharmacy aims to change that. A pilot program created by the Geisinger Health System, a hospital network in Pennsylvania and southern New Jersey, this pharmacy _42_ a grocery store stocked with fresh produce, lean m

31、eats, canned beans, and more. Even better, it is all free. Under the program, patients with type 2 diabetes and qualifying income are _43_ a week worth of food for their entire household, and dieticians show them how to transform it into healthy meals. After the first year, all 180 participants had

32、improved in key health measurements, in particular their hemoglobin A1c levels (HbA1c), the gold standard for _44_ blood sugar control.In 2012, the estimated costs _45_ with diabetes in the United States were $245 billion. Geisinger spent only about $1000 annually on each food-pharmacy patient. Davi

33、d Feinberg, Geisingers president and CEO, _46_ that “a decrease in HbA1c of one point could save us about $8000.” With many of the patients dropping three points, the program could save $24000 or more a year in health-care costsas well as reduce the risk of amputation, blindness, and other complicat

34、ions.Geisinger isnt the only organization _47_ with produce prescriptions. Nonprofits, food banks, hospitals, and even doctors offices around the country have _48_ programs that bring the “food is medicine” concept to life. Boston Medical Centers Preventive Food Pantry was the first such program in

35、the country when it opened in 2001. Today it serves _49_ 7000 patients a month. In 2010, the nonprofit organization Wholesome Wave started the Fruit and Vegetable Rx program. Doctors give each family member $1 per day to spend at a _50_ farmers market or grocery store. The program has helped more th

(B) A. demand B. celebrity C. species D. evolutionary AB. remarkable AC. elaborateAD. note BC. colonizing BD. establishing CD. popularity ABC. hungerThis is a story about a book that just kept selling, catching publishers, booksellers and even its author off guard. The

37、book is Sapiens, by the Israeli academic Yuval Noah Harari, published in the UK in September 2014. It is a recondite(深奥的) work of _51_ history charting the development of humankind through a scholarly examination of our ability to cooperate as a _52_.Sapiens sold well on publication, particularly wh

38、en it came out in paperback in the summer of 2015. What is _53_ about it, though, is that its still selling in vast numbers. Sapiens has sold a further half million copies, _54_ itself firmly at the top of the bestseller lists. The books wild success is symptomatic of a broader trend in our book-buy

39、ing habits: an increase in the _55_ of intelligent, challenging nonfiction often books that are several years old.It was trade publication, the Bookseller, that was the first to _56_ the rise of what it called the “brainy backlist”. It also highlighted a fall in the sales of the books that had been

40、such a staple(必需) of publishers catalogues_57_ biographies. We are turning away from exciting but disposable stories of fame towards more serious, thoughtful, quiet books that help us understand our place in the world. Mark Richards, publisher at John Murray Press, sees the return to serious works o

41、f nonfiction as a response to the spirit of the age. “People have a _58_ both for information and facts, and for exploration of issues, of a sort that books are in a prime position to provide.” he says.In the end, the story of Sapiens is about a book becoming part of a national conversation. At a ti

42、me when politics is more furious(愤怒) and fragmented(破碎的) than ever, when technology is _59_ our everyday existence, when medicine is reshaping our lives, we still look to books to make sense of things, to feel ourselves part of a great communal effort to understand our age. These are serious time an

43、d they _60_ serious, intelligent and challenging books.III. Reading Comprehension （30+30）Section A. Directions: For each blank in the following passage there are four words or phrases marked A, B, C and D. Fill in each blank with the word or phrase that best fits the context. (A)In the United States

44、, there have been no deaths from commercial airline accidents since 2013. In fact, for decades, there has been a general _61_ trend in the number of accidents per departure.Complex systems are more likely to suffer from failures, but commercial aviation (航空) seems to be a(n) _62_. Since the 1960s, U

45、.S. commercial aviation has become significantly more complex, and yet, flying has become safer. What lies behind this remarkable trend is a handful of smart approaches to _63_. Here are two of them.1. Teach people to speak upand to listenA common error during airplane accidents used to be the _64_

46、of first officers to question the captains poor decisions. When the captain was flying the airplane, he was hard to challenge, and his mistakes went _65_.All this began to change in the late 1970s with a training program known as Crew Resource Management (CRM). The program revolutionized the _66_ no

47、t just of the cockpit (机舱) but also of the whole industry. It reframed safety as a _67_ issue and put all crew members on more equal footing. It was no longer _68_ to question the decisions of a superior; it was required. And CRM taught crew members thelanguage of disagreement.The lesson isnt simply

48、 that people lower down in the _69_ should speak up and higher-ups should listen. What CRM has shown is that people can be taught to speak up and to listen. The ability to express and embrace _70_ isnt hardwired in our personality or cultural background; its a skill we can learn.2. Learn from small

49、failures and close callsIn 1976, the US Federal Aviation Administration created an industry-wide system to collect safety reports. The Aviation Safety Reporting System (ASRS) collects thousands of reports each month. Beyond receiving immunity (豁免权) for a mistake, its a point of _71_ for pilots to su

50、bmit ASRS reports. They know the reports make air travel safer. The reports are stored in a searchable database that anyone can _72_, and National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) highlights safety trends in its monthly newsletter,Callback. Here, too, there is a _73_ lesson. Small mistake

51、s and near misses can be a rich source of data about what might _74_ in our system. Mistakes shouldnt be _75_. By openly sharing stories of failures and near failures, we can treat errors as an opportunity to learn.61. A. similarB. steadyC. long-termD. downward62. A. exampleB. exceptionC. symbolD. a

54、D. slow down75. A. obstaclesB. failuresC. experimentsD. secrets(B) Space exploration has always been the province of _76_: The human imagination readily soars where human ingenuity (创造力) _77_ to follow. A Voyage to the Moon, often cited as the first science fiction story, was written by Cyrano de Be

55、rgerac in 1649. Cyrano was dead and buried for a good three centuries before the first manned rockets started to fly. In 1961, when President Kennedy declared that America would send a man to the moon by the decades end, those words, too, had a dreamlike quality. They resonated (共鸣) with _78_ and am

56、bition in much the same way as the most famous _79_ speech of all, delivered by Martin Luther King Jr. two years later. By the end of the decade, both visions had yielded concrete results and _80_ American society. And yet in many ways the two dreams ended up in _81_ with each other. The fight for r

57、acial and economic equality is intensely pragmatic (讲求实用的) and immediate in its impact. The urge to explore space is just the opposite It is figuratively and literally otherworldly(超现实的) in its _82_. When the dust settled, the space dreamers lost out. There was no grand follow-up to the Apollo missi

58、ons. The technologically compromised space shuttle program has just come to an end, with no _83_. The perpetual(不断的) argument is that _84_ are tight, that we have more pressing problems here on Earth. Amid the current concerns about the federal deficit(赤字), reaching toward the stars seems a dispensa

59、ble luxury- _85_ saving one-thousandth of a single years budget would solve our problems. But human ingenuity struggles on. NASA is developing a series of robotic probes that will get the most bang for a buck. They will serve as modern Magellans, _86_ out the solar system for whatever explorers foll

60、ow, whether man or machine. On the flip side, companies like Virgin Galactic are plotting a bottom-up attack on the space dream by making it a reality to the public. Private spaceflight could lie within reach of rich civilians in a few years. Another decade or two and it could go _87_. The space dre

61、amers end up _88_ all of us- not just because of the way they expand human knowledge, or because of the spin-off technologies they produce, but because the two types of dreams feed off each other. Both Martin Luther King and John Kennedy appealed to the idea that humans can go beyond what were once

62、considered inherent _89_. Today we face seeming challenges in energy, the environment, health care. Tomorrow we will transcend(超越) these as well, and the dreamers will deserve a lot of the credit. The more evidence we collect that our species is _90_ of greatness, the more we will actually achieve i

Each passage is followed by several questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices mark

66、ed A, B, C and D. Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage you have just read. (A)The bus screamed to a stop in Nazareth, Israel. Five Australian backpackers boarded and struck up a conversation with me. They asked typical travelers questions-where was I going

67、and why was I traveling alone? My plan was to travel with a friend of a friend, I explained, but when I called her that morning, she didnt pick up and I had no other way to reach her. My stomach was in knots, but I decided to head out anyway, thinking I might run into her if I traveled to Tiberius,

68、where we had planned to go together.Why dont you travel with us? one of the backpackers offered. They were experienced adventurers who would work for a few months, save, then travel for as long as they could. Their current plan was to explore the Middle East and Europe in three months while working

69、in London.It seemed risky to travel with strangers, but my instinct said yes. For the next two weeks, I explored Israel with the backpackers and learned to trust my instincts in all types of new and interesting situations. When they hook a ride, I took the bus, but when they wanted to steal into the

70、 King David Hotels swimming pool, I led the way. The world opened up to me because I chose to travel alone. I joined complete strangers, who become close friends. Years later, one couple from the backpacking group even flew from Sydney to Phoenix to be in my wedding. The trip was such a special expe

71、rience that it gave me confidence in all areas of my life. Since then, Ive backpacked alone across South Africa, sky-dived from 12,000 feet in New Zealand and even moved across the U.S. with no job lined up.On my third day wandering in Israel with my new friends, I bumped into the woman I was suppos

72、ed to meet. Though I was happy she was all right, I was grateful she hadnt picked up the phone.91.By My stomach was in knots (in paragraph 1), the author most likely means that she was _.A. sick of riding on a bumpy busB. nervous of meeting strangersC. upset about the sudden changeD. sorry about the

74、 it might cause trouble to have a swimC. she ought to stay away from the backpackers. D. it could add excitement to get a free ride94.What can be inferred from the passage?A. Most of the backpackers became the authors lifelong friends.B. The author gathered the courage to be a fulltime backpack trav

75、eler.C. The woman missed the phone call with the purpose of traveling alone.D. The author considered it the best decision of her life to travel on her own.(B)Families should reduce exposure to synthetic chemicals found in food colouring, preservatives and packaging materials as a growing body of res

76、earch shows they may harm childrens health, according to a policy statement and technical report from the American Academy of Paediatrics released online.The statement also suggests improvements to the food additives regulatory system, including updating the scientific foundation of the U.S. Food an

77、d Drug Administrations safety assessment programme and retesting all previously approved chemicals.Q&A with the lead authorWe asked Leonardo Trasande, Council on Environmental Health member and lead author of the policy statement, to tell us more about these concerns.Q: What are the growing number o

78、f studies showing us?A: Over the past two decades, an accumulating body of science suggests some food additives can interfere with a childs hormones, growth and development.Potentially harmful effects of food additives are of special concern for children because they are more sensitive to chemical e

79、xposures because they eat and drink more, relative to body weight, than adults do and are still growing and developing. An early injury to their organ systems can have lifelong and permanent consequences.Q: What additives does the statement highlight?A: The additives of most concern, based on rising

80、 research evidence cited in the report, include:l Bisphenols, such as BPA, used to harden plastic containers and line metal cans, can act like estrogen (雌激素) in the body which may potentially change the timing of puberty, decrease fertility, increase body fat and affect the nervous and immune system

81、s. BPA is now banned in baby bottles.l Phthalates, which make plastic and vinyl tubes used in industrial food production flexible, may affect male genital development, increase childhood obesity and contribute to cardiovascular disease. In 2017, the Consumer Product Safety Commission banned the use

82、or some phthalates in child-care products such as teething rings.95.According to the American Academy of Paediatrics report, people should _ to cope with the problem of food additives.A. try to avoid food additives in daily life and revise relevant rules on food additivesB. update the food safety as

83、sessment program and check the approved chemicals againC. improve the food additives regulatory system and retest all approved chemicalsD. reduce the usage of food additives and establish new food protection system96.Leonardo Trasande holds the view that food additives do more harm to children than

84、adults because study shows _.A. children are more sensitive to what they eat and drink than adultsB. children usually eat and drink more unhealthy food than adultsC. children are just too young and weak to protect themselvesD. childrens organs are easier to be damaged and hard to recover97.How many

85、specific kinds of harmful effect caused by the additives are mentioned in the passage?A. 2B. 7C. 8D. 3 ( C )The classic nightmare of suddenly realizing you are naked in public could soon get a futuristic twist: it might involve the horror of losing not just your modesty but also your pass codes. Sci

86、entists recently created magnetic (磁性的) garments that they say can store data, automatically unlock doors or control a nearby smartphone with gesture.The concept of interactive “smart clothing” has drawn attention in the past couple of years. For example, Google and Levis created a touch-sensitive j

87、acket that can operate a smartphone. This and other smart garments are made with conductive thread (传导线) and usually require an attached electronic device.To eliminate the need for such peripheral gear(周边装备), researchers at the University of Washington recently took advantage of what is a previously

88、 untapped property of conductive thread: its ability to be magnetized. Using magnetic instead of electric properties of the thread may seem like a small difference, but it is what makes this work interesting and exciting,” says Chris Harrison, a computer scientist at Carnegie Mellon University, who

89、was not part of the research. The new technique allowed the researchers to do something they say is unique among wearables: turn them into storage devices.The Washington team magnetized a patch of fabric embroidered (刺绣) with conductive thread, giving different parts of the cloth a north or south or

90、ientation that correspond to binary 1s or 0. This step allowed the researchers to store up to 33 million different combinationssuch as pass codes for doorson a shirt sleeve. They also created magnetic gloves that could control a nearby smartphone with gestures. The team described its findings last O

91、ctober at a meeting of the Association for Computing Machinery.The garments still stored data after washing, drying and ironing, but they could not escape times eraser; after about a week, the threads magnetic fields had weakened by around 30 percent. The researchers suggest that using custom-made(订

92、制的) thread designed to hold stronger magnetic fields might work longer. But for now the clothes may be best suited for storing temporary codes, such as those found on hotel key cards or clothing tags in stores. Harrison says that it is “very unlikely you are ever going to achieve a comparable densit

93、y to magnetic hard drives” with data-storing fabric, however.98. What does the underlined sentence (1st paragraph) imply？A. People would soon change their views on being naked in public.B. There is no way to stop the decline of privacy right now.C. People would lose privacy to a considerable degree.

94、D. The classic nightmare of losing pass codes could never come true.99. According to Chris Harrison, using magnetic conductive thread is interesting and exciting because _.A. it will gradually eliminate the need for attached devicesB. it will turn any common wearables into storage devicesC. it is su

95、ch an abstract idea that giant companies have made attempts at itD. it brings scientists new challenges and makes their work out of the ordinary100. Which of the following is NOT a feature of garments with new technology？A. It is portable and can interact with electronic devices wirelessly.B. it is

96、sustainable and doesnt need further maintenance.C. It is washable and can endure high temperature.D. It can store huge amounts of information.101. What does Harrison imply in the last paragraph？A. Magnetic hard drivers will never lose their position to fabrics in storage.B. Cloth and fabric as a sto

97、rage medium have replaced magnetic hard drives.C. Data-storing fabric can be as efficient as a traditional storage medium now.D. In the short term, fabric used to store data cannot overcome its weakness.Section CDirections:Read the following passage. Fill in each blank with a proper sentence given i

98、n the box.Each sentence can be used only once. Note that there are two more sentences than you need.A. Dozens of companies around the world already offer such productsB. Using sound to power devices is another energy-harvesting variationC. Its also unclear how eagerly consumers might welcome energy-

99、harvesting productsD. With the Internet of things expected to combine billions of devices, well have to use energy harvesting.AB. When certain materials are squeezed or stretched，the movement of their atoms creates an electrical chargeAC. Research firm IDTechEx has estimated that annual global sales

100、 of energy-harvesting products could hit2.6 billion by 2024. Fed up with constantly having to recharge or replace batteries in your ever-expanding electronic devices? The solution may be just a few steps away. Energy harvesting promises to power countless consumer devices，often with nothing more tha

Among the most basic forms of the technology is body power. _103_ Automatic watches have employed the concept for decades，f

102、or example，by winding themselves when their user moves their armNow，the concept is being considered for a number of other devices.

104、 Spain is proposing to obtain electricity from radio waves that flow around everyone to power sensors sewn into clothes, which can monitor a persons heartbeat or other vital signs. Obtaining stable energy from devices can be complex, however. For one thing, the motion that generates the electricity

105、has to be constant to be usefulMoreover，the amount of power the devices produce depends on the person using them, according to a Columbia University study. It determined that taller people on average provide about 20percent more power than shorter ones when walking, running or cycling_105_. While su
