A short video capturing the heartfelt reunion of a daughter and her mother, who works away
from home, has gone viral on social media recently. The video was shared by Li Qiushuang, a
college student. Li covered over 1600 kilometers to deliver a warm and unexpected surprise.
Li’ s parents had migrated to Fujian for work over 20 years ago. Normally, they would return
to Chongqing together just before the Spring Festival. However, due to Li's grandmother falling ill
this year, her father returned home early to look after the elderly, leaving her mother to work alone
at a shoe factory in Jinjiang.
In a recent video call, Li's mother informed her daughter that she wouldn't be able to come
home for the New Year this time. One reason was her desire to earn more money, and the other was
the inconvenience caused by her limited education level for traveling back home. Concerned about
her mother spending the New Year alone in a distant place, Li immediately booked a flight and
decided to pick up her mother.
The reason why Li didn't simply buy a ticket for her mother and let her travel on her own was
that her mother was not accustomed to traveling alone. Having spent the last two decades mostly
within the village where she worked, Li's mother wasn't familiar with public transportation.
On the evening of Jan 20, Li arrived and went directly to her mother's residence. When her
mother saw her daughter suddenly appear, she first looked surprised, and then tears of happiness
flowed down her face.
This touching video has resonated (引起共鸣) with many netizens. Netizens even initiate a
voluntary agreement which pledges to assist each others’ parents facing difficulties while away from
home, emphasizing the importance of mutual support in times of need.
24. What do we know about Li's parents?
A. They had left their hometown for Fujian for 20 years.
B. Li's father asked his wife to go on working till the Spring Festival.
C. They usually got back to Chongqing for the Spring Festival reunion.
D. The workplace of Li's mother was 1600 kilometers from Chongqing.
25. Why did Li insist that her mother should return home?
A. Because her mother's staying alone in Fujian worried her.
B. Because her mother didn't earn enough to buy a plane ticket.
C. Because her mother didn't know how to return home on her own.
D. Because her mother was afraid to travel without others by her side.
26. What does the underlined word“pledges” in the last paragraph probably mean?
A. Promises. B. Suggests. C. Continues. D. Urges.
27. Which words can best describe Li?
A. Caring and ambitious. B. Successful and flexible.
C. Optimistic and kind. D. Considerate and decisive.C
Many Americans joke about how bad they are at math. But, labor experts and others in the United
States are not laughing.
Jim Stigler is a professor at the University of California, Los Angeles. He studies the process of
teaching and learning subjects, including math(STEM). He said, “The advances in technology that
are going to drive where the world goes in the next 50 years are going to come from other countries,
because they have the intellectual capital and we don’ t.”
Government labor experts say the number of jobs in areas requiring math skill will increase by
more than 30,000 each year through the end of 2030. That is much faster than most other kinds of
jobs.
But most American students are not prepared for those jobs. In the most recent Program for
International Student Assessment tests in math (PISA), U. S. students tested lower than students from
36 other education systems around the world. Students in China tested the highest.
However, students from other countries are preparing to lead in these areas, reports the National
Foundation for American Policy, a non-profit organization. It says only one in five graduate students
in math-heavy fields at U. S. universities are American. The rest come from other countries. Most
will leave the U. S. when they finish their programs. In Massachusetts, employers are expecting a
shortage over the next five years of 11,000 workers in the life sciences alone. “This is not an
educational question alone,” said Josh Wyner,a vice president of the Aspen Institute.
Not everyone is convinced that a lack of math skills is holding America back. “What employers
really want is being able to learn the systems and solve problems,” said Todd Thibodeaux, president
and CEO of CompTIA, an information technology trade association. “Other countries,” he said, “are
dying for the way our kids learn creativity.”
28. What does Jim Stigler want to convey in paragraph 2?
A. Intellectual capital decides a nation's future.
B. The U. S. will fall behind other states in 50 years.
C. Technological talents aren't fairly treated in the U. S.
D. Technological progress will be more obviously seen in other countries.
29. How does Americans' poor math skill affect themselves?
A. Make it harder for them to land a job in 2030.
B. Make them ashamed of performing badly in tests.
C. Decrease their competitiveness in jobs related to maths.
D. Push them to leave the U. S. after finishing their studies.
30. Why did Todd regard the lack of math skills as an unimportant issue?
A. American kids have a gift of creative vision.
B. Employers emphasize workers' creativity.
C. Math skills can be trained well in the workplace.
D. Other countries' kids are poor in solving problems.
31. What is a suitable title for the text?
A. Americans Don't Realize the Status of Math.
B. Americans Didn't Value Math in Childhoods.
C. Americans Are Losing the Intellectual Capital.
D. Americans’ Poor Math Skills Raise Concerns.D
The number of snowshoe hares(雪靴兔) in the Canadian Yukon soars to the highest point every
few years. With a surge in hare populations, their predators lynx and coyotes also increase in number.
Then hare populations fall and their predators start to die off. The cycle which has been studied since
the 1920s is famous among ecologists.
In recent years, though, researchers have found hare numbers fall not just because predators eat
them. Long-lasting stress from living surrounded by killers causes mother hares to eat less food and
bear fewer babies. The trauma(创伤) of living through such threats causes lasting changes in brain
chemistry, keeping the hares from reproducing at normal levels.
It's not just snowshoe hares. Behavioural ecologists Liana Zanette and Michael Clinchy have
found that fear of predators can cause other wild mammals and songbirds to bear and raise fewer
young. The offspring of frightened voles and song sparrows are less likely to succeed in reproducing.
These findings add to a growing body of evidence showing that fearful experiences can have long-
lasting effects on wildlife and suggesting that post-traumatic stress disorder(PTSD) is not only unique
to humans, but shared among other creatures.
Rudy Boonstra, a population ecologist at the University of Toronto, sees the response of
snowshoe hares as an adaptation that allows the animals to make the best of a bad situation. Animals
stressed by many predators spend more time hiding and less time feeding, so they produce fewer
young — but that may allow more adult hares to survive to rebuild the population when the cycle
starts again.
Despite the evidence that varieties of animals experience the long-term impacts of extreme stress,
some psychologists still hold their human-centered view of PTSD. “It is defined in terms of human
responses,” says neurobiologist David Diamond. “There is no biological measure — you can’ t get a
blood test that says someone hasPTSD. This is a psychological disease, and that's why I call it a
human disorder. Because a rat can't tell you how it feels.”
32. What can be learned from the hare population?
A. Their populations have been falling all the time.
B. Their numbers decline partly because of stress.
C. Their safety is threatened by wild mammals and songbirds.
D. Their predators lynx and coyotes are on the edge of dying out.
33. What can we conclude from Paragraph 3?
A. PTSD exists among wild animals.
B. It is hard for animals to remember trauma.
C. Birds attract fewer predators than land animals do.
D. Snowshoe hares suffer more than other mammals.
34. What's Diamond's attitude towards animals'PTSD?
A. Favorable. B. Ambiguous. C. Suspicious. D. Unconcerned.
35. What is the author's purpose in writing the text?
A. To give a bricf introduction to PTSD. B. To talk about how to get over trauma.
C. To call for the protection of snowshoe hares.D. To discuss how fear might hurt animals.

选项。
Having settled in Hotel Courtyard in Bangkok, we explored the city immediately. We went
shopping for the whole day and finally we decided to return.
It was at that time that the trouble started. We forgot there are two courtyard hotels in theopposite directions. Absolutely unaware of this, we started searching for the way back. Google maps
suggested us the shortest route which was just 20 minutes away by walk. 36
Bangkok felt different after sunset. Walking along the heavily-crowded roads with the dark-red
sky felt beautiful. Lost in our talk, we didn't realize that we passed onto the quieter part of the
town.
37 It was closed for redecoration. Unfortunately, nobody around us then spoke English.
Worse still, we stepped in a local tuk-tuk(三轮车), which took us to an unknown area for an
enormous pay. We had no idea where we were, our mobile phones nearly out of charge.
38 He was a taxi driver. Recounting the day's events proved to be a great conversation starter.
We ended up talking through the way. He was so kind as to offer to drive us around for the rest of
our stay. 39 For the next four days, from floating markets to the temples of Wat Pho, our trip
wouldn't have been so trouble-free without him.
Sometimes when everything doesn't go as planned, I think about the stranger we met on the
streets and how a tiny mistake on our part led to unexpected results. 40
A. That was when our hero arrived.
B. Our thankfulness knew no bounds.
C. We reached a completely different Hotel Courtyard.
D. We set off into the city with little research on transport.
E. We decided not to waste our money but our time instead.
F. The trip rings as a reminder that every cloud has a silver lining.
G. He then informed us that our hotel was just a few blocks away.

阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。
The line of customers snaked around the counter. There were just two more shopping days
before Christmas, and most of the shoppers in line were in panic mode. One of those customers was
my husband, Dale.
Dale is one of those people who are the no-nonsense shoppers who depend on fast service
because every minute counts as the countdown before Christmas continues. But the service here was
anything but fast.
The problem was the elderly lady at the front of the line, who kept talking happily to the salesgirl
working at the cash register.
“This sweater is for my granddaughter,” the lady explained. “She’ s going to be a teacher, you
know. And she`s
doing very well. She has a very nice boyfriend who is an architectural technician. He's just started a
job with a good company, but you know, we haven't seen any sign of a ring yet. Young people seem
to wait so long these days. Why, I was married with one child and another one on the way when I
was her age.”
On and on she talked as she painstakingly counted out her change, unaware of the winding
snake of customers behind her. When she finally zipped her purse shut and picked up her parcel, the
clerk gestured to the man next in line.
“Thank you, dearie.” She started to move slowly, checking the contents of her shopping bag.
She was almost to the end of the counter when suddenly she turned back. “Oops! Excuse me, what's
this for?” she asked, holding up a piece of paper.
“It's a discount coupon(优惠券) that will give you 15 percent off your next purchase here at the
store,” replied the salesgirl.
“Well, thank you, my dear, but I won't be needing this,” she beamed. “Here, you can use it right
now!” she said, handing it to the man next in line. The man's eyes widened, and he mumbled a word
of thanks as she walked to the door.
注意：
(1) 续写词数应为150左右；
(2) 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
Then an amazing thing happened.
By the time the coupon reached Dale, he felt like he was part of something special..
