The few who are lucky enough to visit this most mysterious continent do so by ship. To reach Antarctica, ships must pass through an extremely violent area of ocean called the Drake Passage, considered to be the roughest stretch of sea on the planet.Walls of water thirty, sometimes forty feet high continually crashed against our ship for two solid days. We would hold on to a rope inside the ship while being violently tipped(傾斜) to one extreme side, then to the other, and then back again. My daughter Claire and I were as mentally prepared as we could be.About two and a half days after entering the Drake Passage, the waters calmed. Soon, we noticed small black spots on nearby pieces of floating ice. Emperor penguins! Then, we began the two-mile hike over the ice to the penguin colony. Within several hundred yards, small groups of emperors, perhaps ten or so at a time, greeted us, sliding on their bellies and making their wonderful noises, sort of a long, high-pitched sound.One day two adult emperors with their three chicks following them approached Claire, who was resting on the ice. They left the chicks with her, as if she were the babysitter.Twenty minutes later they returned to collect the chicks. And I will never forget the penguin that, when I jokingly asked which way back to the helicopters, pointed a wing in the correct direction. Every night aboard our safe and warm ship, we thought about what it takes to survive in Antarctica, an incredibly harsh place.But each day on the ice, we also thought about the Drake Passage, the impact of the large body of water we had to endure to get where we were. Over the course of our visit, we came to respect the power of that sea. We still talk about the penguins, as I’m sure we always will. But we talk about the Drake Passage, too. Both experiences were unforgettable, and one would not have been possible without the other.Why is the Drake Passage mentioned in the first paragraph?The water in the area is usually calm. B. People can see very attractive scenery there.C. A lot of sea animals often appear in the area. D. It is quite a dangerous section of the journey.What is the theme of the third paragraph?A. The visitors appreciated the penguins. B. The living habits of emperor penguins.C. How penguins made their wonderful noises. D. The appearance and shape of emperor penguins.26. What can we infer from the fourth paragraph?A. Penguins try to avoid human beings.B. Penguins are not afraid of human beings.C. Claire played with the two adult penguins for a long time.D. Claire led the young penguins to where the adult penguins stayed.27. What does the underlined word “endure” in the last paragraph mean?A. Promote. B. Break. C. Arrange. D. Experience.CPortia Kapraun has always seen unwelcome ads on Twitter, usually from major brands pitching (竭力推銷(xiāo)) her expensive jewelry or vehicles that she, as a librarian in Indiana, could not afford. Ms. Kapraun was not interested. But she soon saw the ads again. And again. And again. “These feel like low-end ads,” she said. In a shaky advertising market in an uncertain economy, ads that few people want to see suddenly seem to be everywhere.Advancements in digital advertising technology were meant to improve users’ experience. People interested in shoes are intended to get ads for sneakers and boots, not repeated pitches promoting gold investments. And the technology is supposed to remove misleading or dangerous pitches. But lately, on several platforms, the opposite seems to be happening for a variety of reasons, including a slowdown in the overall digital ad market. As numerous deep-pocketed marketers have pulled back, and the softer market has led several digital platforms to lower their ad pricing, opportunities have opened up for less demanding advertisers.Advertising experts agree that poor-quality ads appear to be increasing greatly. They point to a variety of potential causes: internal troubles at technology companies, weak content moderation (審核), and high-level advertisers seeking other choices. Then, there’s the economy: A recent survey of 43 multinational companies representing more than $44 billion in advertising spending found that nearly 30 percent planned to cut back on their marketing spending last year.Other factors are also contributing to lower advertising quality. Social media advertising, once only practiced by specialists, is now easily available to anyone. Many of them are avoiding targeted ads—placements intended to reach specific audiences, usually at a higher cost—in favor of a cheaper spray-and-pray (廣撒網(wǎng)式的) approach online, hoping to catch the attention of gullible (容易受騙的) or bored shoppers. Major social media platforms are now like “a mall that used to be good”, Corey Richardson, vice president at a multicultural ad company, says. “But now there’s no longer a mall there—it’s just a calendar store and a place sling beepers (傳呼機(jī)). ”28. What message does the author want to deliver in Portia Kapraun’s story?A. Repeated ads have a strong power of persuasion.B. Social media users often encounter unwanted ads.C. Major brands usually prefer social media advertising.D. An uncertain economy leads to lower levels of consumption.29. What can be inferred about the “l(fā)ess demanding advertisers” mentioned in Paragraph 2?A. They are forced to exit the digital ad market.B. They have benefited from advertising experts.C. They can now advertise at a more affordable price.D. They work hard to improve their users’ experience.30. What is Corey Richardson’s attitude to major social media platforms?A. Favorable. B. Hopeful C. Unclear. D. Negative.31. Which of the following is a suitable title for the text?A. Where is social media advertising heading?B. What is shaking up the online advertising market?C. Why are you seeing so many bad digital ads now?D. How are targeted ads impacting your purchase decisions?DBoth Roberto and Keith have a 45-minute commute(通勤) time from their homes to their workplace. When Roberto drives, he has realistic expectations of how others drive and how long the trip should take. Overall, he is able to adapt to any unexpected challenges he may face on the road. He rarely becomes angry. By contrast, Keith drives with a tendency for becoming angry easily, partly due to unrealistic expectations of other drivers, his quickness to personalize and feel threatened by the actions of others, and his inability to calm his anger.The difference between how Roberto and Keith experience their drive to work, especially with regard to getting angry, is influenced very much by their emotional intelligence. Emotional intelligence is crucial for helping individuals choose constructive over destructive anger. A key aspect of healthy anger is being able to pause and reflect on, rather than react to, our thoughts, feelings, and senses associated with getting angry.Self-regulation and empathy(同理心) are two important components of emotional intelligence, which can be a buffer(緩沖) against destructive anger. Self-regulation helps us to control our moods. Empathy helps us to recognize the humanity in others and ourselves.Studies suggest that training in emotional intelligence can powerfully impact how anger is managed. This was supported by a three-year study of 476 young adults who showed reduced tendency of becoming angry after training. Children and adults can learn skills to boost their emotional intelligence and, by doing so, develop adaptability for dealing with various negative affect, including anger. Many workbooks offer skills in emotional intelligence to promote empathy and self-awareness regarding emotions and how they impact our beliefs and behavior.Clearly, through training, Keith would experience greater emotional flexibility that could support a more peaceful commute to work. I firmly believe that learning skills in emotional intelligence should be the focus in helping individuals more constructively manage this highly challenging and complex emotion.32. What is the function of the first paragraph?A. To tell a true story. B. To make a comparison.C. To introduce the main topic. D. To present an important finding.33. Which of the following is the main point of healthy anger?A. Thinking over the annoying situation.B. Taking action to deal with the awful situation.C. Turning a blind eye to the unwelcome situation.D. Expressing feelings about the disturbing situation.34. What is the author’s attitude towards training in emotional intelligence?A. Tolerant. B. Doubtful. C. Negative. D. Supportive.35. What is the suitable title of the text?A. Friends Should Enjoy Peaceful CommuteB. Drivers Need to Boost Their Emotional IntelligenceC. Emotional Intelligence Is a Buffer Against Destructive AngerD. Emotional Intelligence Has a Powerful Impact on People's Life 第二節(jié)（共 5 小題；每小題 2.5 分，滿分 12.5 分）閱讀下面短文，從短文后的選項(xiàng)中選出可以填入空白處的最佳選項(xiàng)。選項(xiàng)中有兩項(xiàng)為多余選項(xiàng)。 Does the happiness of parents play a role in shaping the overall happiness of their children?

It was hand-carved from burned animal bone. Researchers say the sculpture depicts (刻畫(huà)) a bird on a base, pointing to deliberate marks 59 the creature’s eyes and bill (嘴) would be. It is believed that the bird’s oversized tail was made 60 (prevent) the sculpture from leaning forward when 61 (lay) on a surface. This discovery identifies a(n) 62 (origin) artistic tradition and pushes back by more than 8,500 years the representation of birds in Chinese art. The sculpture differs 63 (technology) and stylistically from other sculptures found in Western Europe and Siberia, and it could be the missing link tracing the origin of Chinese statues back to the early part of the Stone Age. Li Zhanyang, who led 64 study, has contributed to other archeological findings in Lingjing, including various ancient 65 (tool) and two skulls belonging to an extinct species of early humans. 第四部分寫(xiě)作（共兩節(jié)，滿分40分）第一節(jié) 應(yīng)用文寫(xiě)作（滿分15分）假定你是李華，你的外國(guó)筆友 Jim 所在學(xué)校的圖書(shū)館想要收藏關(guān)干中國(guó)文化的書(shū)籍，他發(fā)來(lái)郵件請(qǐng)你幫忙推薦相關(guān)書(shū)籍。請(qǐng)你給他回一封郵件，內(nèi)容包括：1.書(shū)籍類(lèi)型；2.推薦理由。注意：1. 寫(xiě)作詞數(shù)應(yīng)為80左右；2. 請(qǐng)?jiān)诖痤}卡相應(yīng)位置作答。 Dear Jim,How is everything going?

As they often did, his two sons, Louie, 7, and Everett, 5, followed closely. As they headed for the house, the two boys ran ahead of their father, who stopped to close the gate. Louie paused at a board covering an old well. The board had, over time, become easily broken. When Louie stepped on it, it caved in and he fell into the well. Brandon had just close the door when he heard a cry for help. He turned around and found his younger son Everett standing alone beside the well, pointing to it and screaming.Brandon quickly realized what had happened. “No, Louie can barely swim,” he panicked, his mind almost going blank. However, he knew he should calm down. He ran to the well and heard Louie hitting the water. Without thinking, he jumped in. Somehow, Brandon managed to grab on to a pipe that ran down the side of the well. He hit the cold water at the bottom of the well and lifted Louie up as he stuck his own legs and back against the narrow walls for support, “All right, Dad, we can climb out now,” Louie said. If only it were that easy！The pipe that he’d grabbed during his fall was too slippery to be of any use. There was only one way out. Looking up to see Everett looking down at them, Brandon shouted, “Everett, you’re going to have to be a big boy and save us. Run to the road and stand by the mailbox until someone stops. Tell them we need help. And Everett, stay off the road.” 注意：1. 續(xù)寫(xiě)詞數(shù)應(yīng)為150左右；2. 請(qǐng)按如下格式在答題卡的相應(yīng)位置作答。 Everett did as he was told. The couple hurried to the well with Everett.
