More than two million culture-hungry visitors are expected to gather at the Edinburgh International Festival. With a couple of million more mouths to feed, Edinburgh’s restaurants will be crowded all the time. If you can’t find a table, try these places.
Eleanore
Named after Roberta’s boat, Eleanore is comfortable with high-level seating and decorated in white and blue. Dishes range from small to big plates. It’s a great place to go for a drink, even when the kitchen is closed.
Kora

I remember waking up early on Saturday mornings when I was 12 to go and see patients with my dad. He volunteered once a month at a health center in downtown that served the city’s Spanish-speaking population. He would bring his own equipment — a lamp and a large machine called an auto-refractor (自动验光仪). There was always a line of people waiting when we arrived. I’d sometimes help with translating, but often my father would ask me to run the auto-refractor, which would give a judgement of the patients’ vision.
After completing checks and treatments, my dad would offer a deeply discounted operation on a later date to those who needed it. Besides volunteering, my father was one of the few in the area that accepted people without insurance, despite the risk of losing money. He sometimes came home with a piece of artwork or some food from patients who couldn’t pay for their care and instead offered a gift of their talents. He thought all the patients should receive the same care, regardless of their ability to pay.
Volunteering seemed like a task to me at the time. Little did I know that my father was planting the seeds of serving the Spanish-speaking community in my mind and heart. He never forced me to go into medicine, but what I saw through him was that one person can truly make a difference in the world.
It’s this type of character of devotion and service that has inspired so many people to apply for medical school every year. I am fortunate that my father has given an example of this in his 40 years as a doctor because it was what he had done that inspired me to dive into this great job. I can only hope that I can be that same type of light for others.

Lens fogging (镜片起雾) has been troubling glasses wearers for as long as glasses have existed; it happens more often to those needing to wear masks (口罩). Researchers from ETH Zurich in Switzerland may have finally come up with a lasting solution to the problem that works whether someone is wearing a mask, or they’ve just come inside from the cold.
There’s no real mystery as to the foggy lenses. It happens when moisture (水分) in wet air, or from someone’s breath, hits a glasses lens that’s colder than said moisture, which then becomes obvious drops. It happens a lot in the winter, when people are coming in from the outside to warm places, or when people breathe out with masks, the warm, wet air goes upwards.
It’s also a problem that plagues car windows, making it hard for a driver to see. The simple solution there is to see. The simple solution there is to heat the windows. But adding electric heaters to glasses, which are designed to be lightweight and comfortable to wear, isn’t really a choice. So ETH Zurich researchers came up with another way to heat glasses lenses. They rely on a new type of glass coating that effectively does the same thing.
The coating is made from very thin gold in such small amounts that the added cost would be very small. The gold takes in a kind of light from the sun, causing glasses lenses to heat up by up to eight degrees. By doing this, it can prevent moisture in the air from forming on the glasses. The coating also cannot be seen by human eyes, not influencing people’s views. Because it’s so thin, the coating can even be applied to surfaces that are not flat.
But this method isn’t perfect. As the gold draws the energy it needs to heat lenses from the sun, the coating won’t do much good in the winter months, when it starts to get dark by late afternoon. But the researchers believe that even a small amount of electricity, like from a battery hidden away in the arms of a pair of glasses, would be enough. And with gold being one of the most valuable metals on earth and still in high demand, the researchers are looking for other metals to replace it.
8. What does Paragraph 2 mainly talk about
A. How to keep your glasses clear. B. When moisture becomes drops.
C. What weakness glasses have. D. Why glasses get foggy.
9. What does the underlined word “plagues” in Paragraph 3 probably mean
A. Changes. B. Controls. C. Troubles. D. Measures.
10. How can the gold coating prevent fog’s formation
A. By making the glasses reflective. B. By using sunlight to heat the glasses.
C. By smoothing the surface of the glasses. D. By taking in the moisture on the glasses.
11. What’ s a disadvantage of the coating
A. It’s limited by temperature. B. It’s used on few surfaces.
C. It’s not thin enough. D. It’s energy-wasting.
D
You can get a clear picture about Deep Work by Cal Newport in 5 minutes. Deep Work tells us professional activities performed in a state of distraction-free concentration that you push your cognitive (认知的) capabilities to their limit. These efforts create new value and improve your skill. The ability to perform deep work is becoming increasingly rare at exactly the same time it is becoming increasingly valuable in our economy. As a consequence, the few who develop the skill, and then make it the core of their working life will thrive (蓬勃发展).
The book tells us the core abilities for thriving in the new economy, which are the ability to quickly master hard things, the ability to produce a high level, in terms of both quality and speed. If you can’t learn, you can’t thrive. If you don’t produce, you won’t thrive — no matter how skilled or talented you are. If you haven’t mastered deep work, you’ll struggle to learn hard things. To learn hard things quickly, you must focus intensely without distraction.
The key to developing a deep work habit is to move beyond good intentions and add routines and habits to your working life designed to minimize a state of unbroken concentration. To master the art of deep work, therefore, you must take back control of your time and attention from the many entertainments on the Internet that attempt to steal them. Adopt a tool only if its positive impacts on these factors substantially outweigh its negative impacts. It’s crucial that you figure out in advance what you’re going to do with your evenings and weekends before they begin.
In the end of Deep Work, we can know that the ability to concentrate is a skill that gets valuable things done. If you’re struggling to use your mind to its fullest capacity to create things that matter, then you’ll discover, as others have before you, that depth generates a life rich with productivity and meaning.
12. What is presented in the first paragraph
A. Theoretical introduction. B. Daring anticipation.
C. Practical examples. D. Detailed analyses.
13. Who will thrive in this new economy
A. Those who’re willing to help others. B. Those who’re very skilled or talented.
C. Those who’re the best at what they do. D. Those who struggle to learn hard things.
14. Which of the following can help develop a deep work habit
A. Making a flexible schedule. B. Quitting social media.
C. Using on-demand distraction. D. Forming a simple habit.
15. What is the text
A A book review. B. A news report.
C. An exam paper. D. An economic article.

When I was in middle school, my family moved to Seattle, where my parents started their new business — a small grocery store downstairs my house. As a girl of shy and reserved nature, I had to take a fresh start to fit into the city life.
One sunny day, my school announced an exciting event, a talent show for the local food bank. Students were encouraged to showcase their unique talents in front of the public in the city hall on National Day. A buzz of excitement filled the school as everyone began preparing for the big day. Deep down, I felt a spark of curiosity and a desire to participate. However, my self-doubt held me back, “I don’t have any special skills to share.”
Days turned into weeks, and the talent show drew closer. I couldn’t shake the upsetting feeling until one day Emma, one of the most popular girls in my class, came to me while I was helping in the grocery store after class. “How about singing together in the talent show ” She grinned (笑), “I heard you singing a tune, along the way back home. I can’t help following you here.” Gosh, I couldn’t believe my ears. Emma, with personality and popularity, acknowledged my little talent. Since Emma had the world’s prettiest voice, I felt like being favoured by fortune.
“You two The talent show for the food bank ” My mum bent towards us and her face lit up. “A big occasion.” Then a light bulb seemed to go in her head. “Why not practise right now upstairs I bet you’ll be a perfect match.” Winking at us, she seemed to know we were thinking alike.
Emma and I embarked on rehearsing (排练) almost every single day after school. We brainstormed, exchanged ideas and rehearsed the scene. As the days rolled by, I was feeling pretty good about our act. But the day before the performance, Emma called that she had an acute stomachache and was not in any shape to perform.
注意:1.续写词数应为150左右;

I remember waking up early on Saturday mornings when I was 12 to go and see patients with my dad. He volunteered once a month at a health center in downtown that served the city’s Spanish-speaking population. He would bring his own equipment — a lamp and a large machine called an auto-refractor (自动验光仪). There was always a line of people waiting when we arrived. I’d sometimes help with translating, but often my father would ask me to run the auto-refractor, which would give a judgement of the patients’ vision.
After completing checks and treatments, my dad would offer a deeply discounted operation on a later date to those who needed it. Besides volunteering, my father was one of the few in the area that accepted people without insurance, despite the risk of losing money. He sometimes came home with a piece of artwork or some food from patients who couldn’t pay for their care and instead offered a gift of their talents. He thought all the patients should receive the same care, regardless of their ability to pay.
Volunteering seemed like a task to me at the time. Little did I know that my father was planting the seeds of serving the Spanish-speaking community in my mind and heart. He never forced me to go into medicine, but what I saw through him was that one person can truly make a difference in the world.
It’s this type of character of devotion and service that has inspired so many people to apply for medical school every year. I am fortunate that my father has given an example of this in his 40 years as a doctor because it was what he had done that inspired me to dive into this great job. I can only hope that I can be that same type of light for others.

He volunteered once a month at a health center in downtown that served the city’s Spanish-speaking population.

I’d sometimes help with translating, but often my father would ask me to run the auto-refractor, which would give a judgement of the patients’ vision.(我记得在我12岁的时候,每个周六早上我都要早起和爸爸一起去看病人。他每个月在市中心的一家健康中心做一次志愿者,该中心为该市讲西班牙语的人口服务。他会带上自己的设备——一盏灯和一台叫做自动折射仪的大机器。我们到达时总是有一排人在等着。我有时会帮忙翻译,但我父亲经常会让我运行自动折射镜,它可以判断病人的视力。)”可知,作者12岁那年,每个周六都会陪父亲出诊。故选D。

He thought all the patients should receive the same care, regardless of their ability to pay.(在完成检查和治疗后,我父亲会在晚些时候为那些需要的人提供一个大幅折扣的手术。除了做志愿者之外,我父亲是当地为数不多的接受没有保险的人的人之一,尽管有赔钱的风险。有时,他会带着一件艺术品或一些食物回家,这些东西来自那些付不起医疗费的病人,于是把他们的才能作为礼物。他认为所有的病人都应该得到同样的照顾,不管他们的支付能力如何。)”可知,作者的父亲是当地为数不多的接受没有保险的人的人之一,由此可知他是个慷慨的人;再根据他认为所有的病人都应该得到同样的照顾,不管他们的支付能力如何,以及经常做志愿者工作可知,作者的父亲是个热心肠的人。故选D。

Lens fogging (镜片起雾) has been troubling glasses wearers for as long as glasses have existed; it happens more often to those needing to wear masks (口罩). Researchers from ETH Zurich in Switzerland may have finally come up with a lasting solution to the problem that works whether someone is wearing a mask, or they’ve just come inside from the cold.
There’s no real mystery as to the foggy lenses. It happens when moisture (水分) in wet air, or from someone’s breath, hits a glasses lens that’s colder than said moisture, which then becomes obvious drops. It happens a lot in the winter, when people are coming in from the outside to warm places, or when people breathe out with masks, the warm, wet air goes upwards.
It’s also a problem that plagues car windows, making it hard for a driver to see. The simple solution there is to see. The simple solution there is to heat the windows. But adding electric heaters to glasses, which are designed to be lightweight and comfortable to wear, isn’t really a choice. So ETH Zurich researchers came up with another way to heat glasses lenses. They rely on a new type of glass coating that effectively does the same thing.
The coating is made from very thin gold in such small amounts that the added cost would be very small. The gold takes in a kind of light from the sun, causing glasses lenses to heat up by up to eight degrees. By doing this, it can prevent moisture in the air from forming on the glasses. The coating also cannot be seen by human eyes, not influencing people’s views. Because it’s so thin, the coating can even be applied to surfaces that are not flat.
But this method isn’t perfect. As the gold draws the energy it needs to heat lenses from the sun, the coating won’t do much good in the winter months, when it starts to get dark by late afternoon. But the researchers believe that even a small amount of electricity, like from a battery hidden away in the arms of a pair of glasses, would be enough. And with gold being one of the most valuable metals on earth and still in high demand, the researchers are looking for other metals to replace it.
8. What does Paragraph 2 mainly talk about
A. How to keep your glasses clear. B. When moisture becomes drops.
C. What weakness glasses have. D. Why glasses get foggy.
9. What does the underlined word “plagues” in Paragraph 3 probably mean
A. Changes. B. Controls. C. Troubles. D. Measures.
10. How can the gold coating prevent fog’s formation
A. By making the glasses reflective. B. By using sunlight to heat the glasses.
C. By smoothing the surface of the glasses. D. By taking in the moisture on the glasses.
11. What’ s a disadvantage of the coating
A. It’s limited by temperature. B. It’s used on few surfaces.
C. It’s not thin enough. D. It’s energy-wasting.
【答案】8. D 9. C 10. B 11. A
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要讲的是苏黎世联邦理工学院的研究人员想出了依靠一种新型的玻璃涂层来加热眼镜镜片的方法。
【8题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第二段的“There’s no real mystery as to the foggy lenses. It happens when moisture (水分) in wet air, or from someone’s breath, hits a glasses lens that’s colder than said moisture, which then becomes obvious drops.(雾蒙蒙的镜头并没有什么神秘之处。当潮湿空气中的水分或某人呼吸中的水分碰到比所述水分更冷的眼镜镜片时,就会发生这种情况,然后镜片就会变成明显的水滴)”可知,第二段主要讲的是为什么眼镜会起雾。故选D。
【9题详解】
词句猜测题。根据第三段划线词下文“making it hard for a driver to see(让司机很难看清)”可知,划线词所在句子表示“这也是困扰车窗的一个问题,让司机很难看清”。由此可知,划线词plagues的意思是“困扰”,和troubles意思相近,故选C。
【10题详解】
细节理解题。根据倒数第二段“The coating is made from very thin gold in such small amounts that the added cost would be very small. The gold takes in a kind of light from the sun, causing glasses lenses to heat up by up to eight degrees. By doing this, it can prevent moisture in the air from forming on the glasses.(这种涂层是由非常薄的少量黄金制成的,因此增加的成本非常小。黄金吸收一种来自太阳的光,使眼镜镜片升温高达8度。通过这样做,它可以防止空气中的水分在玻璃上形成)”可知,镀金涂层利用阳光加热玻璃来防止雾的形成,故选B。
【11题详解】
细节理解题。根据最后一段的“As the gold draws the energy it needs to heat lenses from the sun, the coating won’t do much good in the winter months, when it starts to get dark by late afternoon.(由于黄金从太阳那里获得了加热镜片所需的能量,所以在冬天的几个月里,当下午晚些时候天色开始变暗时,这种涂层就没有多大用处了)”可知,这种涂层的缺点是受温度的限制。故选A。

You can get a clear picture about Deep Work by Cal Newport in 5 minutes. Deep Work tells us professional activities performed in a state of distraction-free concentration that you push your cognitive (认知的) capabilities to their limit. These efforts create new value and improve your skill. The ability to perform deep work is becoming increasingly rare at exactly the same time it is becoming increasingly valuable in our economy. As a consequence, the few who develop the skill, and then make it the core of their working life will thrive (蓬勃发展).
The book tells us the core abilities for thriving in the new economy, which are the ability to quickly master hard things, the ability to produce a high level, in terms of both quality and speed. If you can’t learn, you can’t thrive. If you don’t produce, you won’t thrive — no matter how skilled or talented you are. If you haven’t mastered deep work, you’ll struggle to learn hard things. To learn hard things quickly, you must focus intensely without distraction.
The key to developing a deep work habit is to move beyond good intentions and add routines and habits to your working life designed to minimize a state of unbroken concentration. To master the art of deep work, therefore, you must take back control of your time and attention from the many entertainments on the Internet that attempt to steal them. Adopt a tool only if its positive impacts on these factors substantially outweigh its negative impacts. It’s crucial that you figure out in advance what you’re going to do with your evenings and weekends before they begin.
In the end of Deep Work, we can know that the ability to concentrate is a skill that gets valuable things done. If you’re struggling to use your mind to its fullest capacity to create things that matter, then you’ll discover, as others have before you, that depth generates a life rich with productivity and meaning.
12. What is presented in the first paragraph
A. Theoretical introduction. B. Daring anticipation.
C. Practical examples. D. Detailed analyses.
13 Who will thrive in this new economy
A. Those who’re willing to help others. B. Those who’re very skilled or talented.
C. Those who’re the best at what they do. D. Those who struggle to learn hard things.
14. Which of the following can help develop a deep work habit
A. Making a flexible schedule. B. Quitting social media.
C. Using on-demand distraction. D. Forming a simple habit.
15. What is the text
A. A book review. B. A news report.
C. An exam paper. D. An economic article.
【答案】12. A 13. C 14. B 15. A

47. 阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头续写两段,使之构成一个完整的短文。
When I was in middle school, my family moved to Seattle, where my parents started their new business — a small grocery store downstairs my house. As a girl of shy and reserved nature, I had to take a fresh start to fit into the city life.
One sunny day, my school announced an exciting event, a talent show for the local food bank. Students were encouraged to showcase their unique talents in front of the public in the city hall on National Day. A buzz of excitement filled the school as everyone began preparing for the big day. Deep down, I felt a spark of curiosity and a desire to participate. However, my self-doubt held me back, “I don’t have any special skills to share.”
Days turned into weeks, and the talent show drew closer. I couldn’t shake the upsetting feeling until one day Emma, one of the most popular girls in my class, came to me while I was helping in the grocery store after class. “How about singing together in the talent show ” She grinned (笑), “I heard you singing a tune, along the way back home. I can’t help following you here.” Gosh, I couldn’t believe my ears. Emma, with personality and popularity, acknowledged my little talent. Since Emma had the world’s prettiest voice, I felt like being favoured by fortune.
“You two The talent show for the food bank ” My mum bent towards us and her face lit up. “A big occasion.” Then a light bulb seemed to go in her head. “Why not practise right now upstairs I bet you’ll be a perfect match.” Winking at us, she seemed to know we were thinking alike.
Emma and I embarked on rehearsing (排练) almost every single day after school. We brainstormed, exchanged ideas and rehearsed the scene. As the days rolled by, I was feeling pretty good about our act. But the day before the performance, Emma called that she had an acute stomachache and was not in any shape to perform.

【答案】Paragraph 1:
I was completely knocked out by the news. Gloomy and desperate, I sat silently in the room for what seemed like ages, unsure of what to do next. Then I started to pace up and down like a caged animal, debating with myself whether or not to go on stage alone. “How can this be possible ” I thought to myself. Fear and anxiety coursed through my veins, and it seemed that all our hard work was in vain. But then the thought of the support and encouragement from Emma and my mom came flooding back to me. It was at the moment that I realized that I couldn’t let self-doubt hold me back. Filled with determination, I resolved to proceed with the performance by myself.
Paragraph 2:
Finally came the big moment. As I stepped onto the stage, I could feel my heart thumping wildly in my chest. Glancing around the hall, I took a deep breath and began to sing. Surprisingly, all my worries suddenly disappeared and a wave of confidence washed over me. I was completely immersed in the joy of performing and the audience was spellbound by the passion in my voice. When I finished my song, the whole hall burst into applause. Tears of joy welled up in my eyes as Emma presented a big bunch of flowers to me, and my mum stood near, winking at us. From that day forward, I learned that by overcoming fears and self-doubts, we can make a difference.
