A
Use this list of winter festivals to plan your trip or plan around them, as many of these festivals will tie up transport and accommodations and drive up prices. It’s all up to you: either plan your travel dates around them, or arrive early enough to jump into the festive atmosphere!
Lighting Festival
A day-trip away from South Korea’s capital Seoul, the Garden of Morning Calm is a must-see during the festival. The lights there cover an area of some 330,000 square meters, using 30,000 colorful LED lights hanging from the trees. Wander around the fairy-like wonderland created by the lights-through such fields like Bonsai Garden, Moonlight Garden, and the Garden of Eden.
Where: Gapyeong County, South Korea
When: December—Mid-March
Harbin Ice Festival
Millions of tourists visit this icy festival every year, drawn by the massive ice sculptures that decorate the fairgrounds next to Songhua River. The sculptures, ice palaces, mazes and slides are simply massive in scale, constructed from some 260,000 cubic yards of ice blocks harvested from the river. They range in size from life-scale carvings of animals and fantastic creatures, to massive 250-foot structures that tower over the crowds.
Where: Harbin, China
When: January 5-February 5
Sapporo Snow Festival
Japan’s biggest winter festival has expanded in size and scope since its first celebration in 1950. The festival covers two main sites in Sapporo. The centerpiece Odori Park site features some 100 ice sculptures dazzlingly lit up after dark. The Susukino district site features a smaller scale of ice sculptures decorating the district. The sculptures cover animals both real and fantastic, including anime-based creatures like Pokemon. Visitors can also enjoy snow mazes, street food, musical performances and skating on the ice rink near Odori Park.
Where: Sapporo, Japan
When: February 4-11
Sky Lantern Festival
The Pingxi Sky Lantern Festival in Taiwan, China, is the most visited lantern festival, lighting the skies with floating lanterns. Its counterpart in the Yanshui District favors a noisier kind of illumination—the Tainan Yanshui Fireworks Display takes place at Tainan’s Wumiao Temple, where locals dare to be hit by small fireworks as a test of their strength and to ward off evil.

Margie wrote about it that night in her diary, “Today Tommy found a real book!”
It was a very old book. Margie’s grandfather once said that when he was a little boy his grandfather told him that there was a time when all stories were printed on paper. They turned the pages, which were yellow and crinkly(皱巴巴的), and it was awfully funny to read words that stood still instead of moving in the way they were supposed to—on a screen.
“What’s it about?”
“School.”
Margie was scornful. “School? What’s there to write about school?” Margie was always fed up with school. The mechanical teacher had been giving her test after test in geography. So she said to Tommy, “Why would anyone write about school?”
Tommy looked at her with very superior eyes, “Because it’s not our kind of school, stupid. This is the old kind of school that they had centuries ago.”
She read the book over his shoulder for a while, and said, “Anyway, they had a teacher.”
“Sure they had a teacher, but it wasn’t a regular teacher. It was a man.”
“A man isn’t smart enough.” She added, “I wouldn’t want a strange man in my house to teach me.”
Tommy screamed with laughter. “You don’t know much, Margie. They had a special building and all the kids of the same age went there, learning the same thing from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. on weekdays.”
They weren’t even half-finished when Margie’s mother called, “Margie! School!” Margie looked up. “Not yet, Mamma.” “Now!” said Mrs. Jones.
Actually the mechanical teacher was on and waiting for her. It was always on at the same time every day except Saturday and Sunday, because her mother said little girls learned better if they learned at regular times.
The large screen was lit up. “Today’s math lesson is on the addition of proper fractions(分数). Please insert yesterday’s homework in the proper slot (插槽).” Margie did so with a sigh. She was thinking about how the kids must have loved school in the old days. All the kids from the whole neighborhood came, sitting together in the schoolroom, going home together at the end of the day. And the teachers were people. She was thinking about the fun they had.
24. What does the underlined word “scornful” in paragraph 5 mean?
A. Interested. B. Amazed. C. Doubtful. D. Disrespectful.
25. Where is Margie’s schoolroom?
A. Inside her house. B. In a special building.
C. On campus. D. Around her neighborhood.
26. What is the similarity between the school in the book and the one Margie attended?
A. Teachers of great wisdom. B. Classmates of the same age.
C. Regular schooling hours. D. Advanced learning equipment.
27. Which of the following may Margie agree with?
A. Doing math homework is more than funny.
B. The school life in the old days is much more appealing.
C. Mechanical teachers are more suitable for teaching her.
D. Reading on a screen is more convenient than reading a real book.
C
Past surveys have shown that more than 80% of dog owners report observing jealous behavior from their dogs-vocalizations, disturbed behavior, pulling on a leash(绳子)—when they give attention to other dogs. New research published in the journal Psychological Science supports these observations and finds that dogs also exhibit jealous behavior when they merely imagine that their owner is interacting with a potential opponent, in this case, a highly realistic artificial dog.
Dogs appear to be one of the few species that might display jealous behavior in ways similar to a human child showing jealousy when their mother shows affection for another child. In humans, jealousy is closely linked with self-awareness, which is one reason animal-cognition researchers are so interested in studying jealousy and other secondary emotions in animals.
To test how and when dogs display jealous behavior, the researchers presented 18 dogs with situations where they could imagine a social interaction between their human companion and either a realistic fake dog or a woolen cylinder(圆柱).The fake dog served as a potential opponent for attention while the cylinder served as a control. In the experiment, the dogs observed the fake dog opponent positioned next to their owner. A barrier was then placed between the dogs and the potential opponent to stop them from view. Despite blocking the line of sight, the dogs forcefully attempted to reach their owner when they appeared to stroke the fake dog behind the barrier. In a repeat experiment using a fleece cylinder rather than a fake dog, the dogs pulled on the leash with far less force.
Through their study, the researchers found that dogs showed three human-like features of jealous behavior. This behavior emerged only when their owner interacted with a noticeable social opponent and not a lifeless object, occurred as a consequence of that interaction and not due to a potential opponent’s mere presence, and emerged even for an out-of-sight interaction between their owner and a social opponent.
“These results support claims that dogs display jealous behavior. They also provide the first evidence that dogs can mentally represent jealousy-causing social interactions,” said the researchers. “But there is still plenty of work to do to establish the extent of the similarities between the minds of humans and other animals, especially in terms of understanding the nature of non-human animals’ emotional experiences. It is too early to say whether dogs experience jealousy as we do, but it is now clear that they react to jealousy-causing situations, even if these occur out of sight.”
28. Why does the author mention the new research in Psychological Science?
A. To make comparison. B. To make a prediction.
C. To provide an example. D. To introduce the topic.
29. Why was a barrier used in the experiment?
A. To distract dogs’ attention. B. To block the sight of dogs.
C. To serve as a potential competitor. D. To protect the fake dog from attack.
30. What can we infer from the last paragraph?
A. Dogs can experience jealousy as humans do.
B. Dogs make reactions based on their imagination.
C. More research is needed to study emotions of animals.
D. It is the first time that dogs have represented jealous behavior mentally.
31. Which of the following is the suitable title for the text?
A. Are Dogs Jealous as Humans? B. Dogs, Faithful Friends of Humans!
C. Be Careful About the Jealous Dogs! D. Are Dogs the Cleverest Animals?
D
Everywhere I look outside my home I see people busy with their high-tech devices, while driving, walking, shopping, even sitting in toilets. When connected electronically, they are away from physical reality.
People have been influenced to become technology addicted. One survey reported that “addicted” was the word most commonly used by people to describe their relationship to the tablet and similar devices. One study found that people had a harder time resisting the allure of social media than they did for sleep, cigarettes and alcohol.
The main goal of technology companies is to get people to spend more money and time on their products, not to actually improve our quality of life. They have successfully created a cultural disease. Consumers willingly give up their freedom, money and time to catch up on the latest information, to keep pace with their peers or to appear modern.
What is a healthy use of technology devices? That is the vital question. Who is really in charge of my life? That is what people need to ask themselves if we are to have any chance of breaking up false beliefs about their use of technology. When we can live happily without using so much technology for a day or a week, then we can regain control and personal freedom, become the master of technology and discover what there is to enjoy in life free of technology.
Mae West is famous for the wisdom that “too much of a good thing is wonderful”. But it’s time to discover that it does not work for technology. Richard Fernandez, an executive coach acknowledged that “we can be swept away by our technologies”. To break the grand digital connection, people must consider how life long ago could be fantastic without today’s overused technology.
32. What is the probable meaning of the underlined word “allure” in paragraph 2?
A. Advantage. B. Attraction. C. Adaption. D. Attempt.
33. What is the aim of technology companies according to the text?
A. To attract people to buy their products. B. To provide the latest information.
C. To improve people’s quality of life. D. To deal with cultural diseases.
34. It can be inferred from this text that people ________.
A. consider too much technology wonderful
B. have realized the harm of high-tech devices
C. can regain freedom with high-tech devices
D. may enjoy life better without overused technology
35. What’s the author’s attitude towards the overuse of high-tech devices?
A. Neutral. B. Skeptical. C. Disapproving. D. Sympathetic.
第二节 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。(共5小题;每小题2.5分,满分12.5分)
Even in difficult times, there is opportunity. 36 . It can be a challenging time for parents, involving emotional and practical changes, but while the empty nest syndrome(综合征)is a particular type of loss, it is also the start of a new chapter of your life. If you approach it in the right way, it can be just as much a time for self-discovery as it is a challenge.
Remember: you’re much more than just a parent
No one is defined by only one role. This includes parents-even if they sometimes feel that they are. 37 . You could reinvest in relationships, refocus on your career or become more active in any community involvements you have.
Remember what your kids want: your happiness
Leaving home is an exciting part of your children’s lives, but it’s unlikely that they’d want it to come at the expense of your happiness. 38 . The more you can find the positives in the situation, the more you’ll be able to be there for them.
39
Big changes are often easier to deal with if you tackle them slowly rather than try to tackle a huge, complex situation in one go. The same is true of dealing with the loneliness of an empty home. A lot of people instantly cram(塞满)their diaries and think, “Oh, I’ll keep really, really busy.” But that can mean you’re not allowing yourself time to reflect on what’s going on.
When your children leave home, it isn’t the end of your relationship with them. It’s the beginning of phase two of your bond, which will most likely last far, far longer even than the years when you lived together. 40 . Your relationship with your children hasn’t gone anywhere. It’s going to be a source of great joy for years to come.
A. Whenever your child leaves home, take it seriously
B. Remember to take the long view
C. What’s more, they still need your support
D. Remember to take it a step at a time
E. Far from an ending, it’s a new beginning
F. The same is true of children leaving home
G. Having children leave home is a good opportunity to recognize all the other crucial roles you play

Lately, I’ve been starting to feel as though my friends are so much farther ahead of me in life. Some of them got engaged and all of them have responsibilities while I’m still single. I see my friends a lot more 41 than I used to——everyone’s so busy with their work now. When we do get together, it’s a lot harder to 42 . The only thing my friends want to talk about is their 43 .
Actually, I’m 44 for them and I want what they have. Every time I see one of them 45 a new baby photo, I ask myself, “When is it going to be my 46 ?” But my body somehow has repeatedly 47 the idea. Meanwhile I’m still 48 dates!
How do I stop 49 myself with others when their lives look so amazing? My roommate, Harper, 50 about a big promotion at work on Twitter. And all I could do was comment, “You go, girlboss!” while sending out yet another job 51 .
I know life isn’t linear, and I shouldn’t compare my 52 with anyone else’s. We’re just in different places in our lives. At the end of the day, 53 we are in our journeys, I know that my friends love me.
So, for now, I’m just going to focus on myself, maybe by 54 or taking a pottery (陶艺) class, to really use the time I have out here in the woods alone for some 55 . I know that someday I will find my person, and see that the long journey is all worth it!

Human activity is 56 (true) altering the distances the world’s animals need to move to live, hunt and search 57 food, according to a study that examined the impact on more than 160 species throughout six continents.
All activities changed the behavior of animals, but the study found 58 (destroy) activities such as urbanization and cutting down trees affected the movement of animals less than occasional endeavors such as using aircraft, hunting and recreation.
As well as having a profound impact on the animals-like reducing their ability to feed and breed—the changes point to a global restructuring of animal movement 59 could have profound knock-on effects, says the study 60 (publish) today in the Nature Ecology and Evolution journal.
Dr. Tim Doherty, a wildlife ecologist at the University of Sydney, said it was already well known that humans affected the movement of animals, with thousands of studies 61 (tend) to focus on single species or activities, but the information was not enough.
When human activities forced animals to move further, for instance, when animals 62 (flee) hunters or had to negotiate roads or avoid skiers or campers, they moved an average of 70 percent further in 63 (respond). The research says, “Even 64 small change in movement can have big impacts on an individual, and when these costs accumulate across an entire population, reproductive rates and population viability(生存能力) may 65 (compromise).”

Mary led a fairly sheltered life and was quite shy. In every social occasion, her outgoing husband took the lead, striking up conversations with strangers. In October 2015, Mary and her husband retired and moved to the beautiful seaside city, Nanaimo, where Mary was looking forward to some quiet, creative activities. One day, they heard about an upcoming storytelling event near their neighborhood and decided to take part in it.
As the storytellers told stories on stage, the audience laughed, cried and sang. Like everyone else, Mary was also attracted by their performance. Somewhere in the middle of the storytelling, Mary suddenly had an exciting idea. She whispered to herself, “I love stories! I want to be a storyteller!”
Mary knew that storytelling requires getting up on a stage under bright lights and addressing strangers. Besides, storytelling requires self-confidence and tons of memorization(记诵). She thought, “I’m a shy person and public speaking is my greatest fear. I’m already sixty years old and my memory isn’t that great. What if I get up there and forget my story? Where am I going to get the talent, memory, and courage needed to become a storyteller?” But she had never felt so alive before and she wanted to be a storyteller so much that she decided to challenge herself.
So when the storytellers finished their storytelling and said there would be storytelling training courses the next month, Mary registered and asked her husband to sign up as well. She needed his support, as she was too shy to stay with a roomful of strangers by herself.
The courses were given in a library near their neighborhood. It would train learners to tell stories fluently and confidently. Mary and her husband arrived early before the first course began. They found there were about thirty learners, including the young and the old. Mary was quite nervous, beginning regretting her decision.
注意:
1.续写词数应为150左右;

Dear Mr. Smith,
I’m Li Hua, an exchange student from China. Hearing you’re recruiting volunteers for the activity about Chinese culture, I’m writing to apply for the position.
Firstly, I have a good command of English so that I can communicate well with those attending the activity. Better yet, I have been keen on Chinese culture and gained in-depth knowledge about it, which enables me to give people new insights into it. Furthermore, my previous volunteer experience helps qualify me for the position.
Thank you for considering my application, and I’m looking forward to your reply.
Yours,
Li Hua
Ⅱ.读后续写
When the course began, Mary found a young, smiling teacher came in. The teacher introduced herself and then asked everyone to introduce themselves, which made Mary more anxious. With the encouragement of her husband, she introduced herself anyway. Later, the teacher explained some storytelling skills, including how to use body language. During the second course, learners were asked to tell short stories using the skills in front of others. Mary found learners there friendly and humorous. Days later, she became good at storytelling and made many new friends.
After all the courses finished, Mary signed up to tell a story on stage. After selecting a story, she made an effort to memorize it and practice telling it. In addition, she often turned to her new friends when she had problems. They helped each other to improve their storytelling skills. Finally, Mary was able to perform excellently on stage. After that, Mary's confidence continued to grow and her shyness just faded away. She also realized that one was never too old to challenge oneself and learn new things.
