Do you like cartoons? If so, read the introduction to the 5 Best Animation（动画）Studios.
TOP 5 Nickelodeon Animation Studios
In 1998, the company entered the cartoon film industry. Among the best animated series it has offered, many
stand out, including Sponge Bob Square Pants and Invader Zim.
TOP 4 DreamWorks Animation
Since 1994, Dream Works has never failed to leave a mark. Most cartoon-lovers may know the logo （标
志） of a young boy fishing from his seat on a moon. For over twenty years, audiences have enjoyed its
imagination. But its influence has always been just slightly weaker than those of the next three.TOP 3 Studio Ghibli
After the success of Miyazaki’s 1984 film Nausicaa of the valley of the Wind, he set up Studio Ghibli in 1985

history are made by Studio Ghibli. Because of his achievements, Miyazaki is considered the best animated director,
perhaps of all the time.
TOP 2 Walt Disney Animation Studios
Disney has given us so many childhood memories. The studio was set up in 1923 by Walt Disney and his elder
brother Roy when the two began producing silent short cartoons in Los Angeles. The introduction of Mickey
Mouse helped start the company’s career, but the 1937 cartoon film Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs caught
more attention.
TOP 1 Pixar Animation Studios
For thirty years, it has produced many wonderful stories which attract every age group. Every Pixar film is the
result of its writers trying to tell better stories. With the releases（发行）for Cars 3, Coco, Toy Story 4, Pixar’s
next work will be better.

B
In a few hours Sam would be flying to Germany. We looked at each other but s t no sound broke the silence of
my beach-side house.
Such a moment was not the first time for me. On Sam’s first day of kindergarten（幼儿园）, I felt his stresswhen holding his hand. He looked at me-as he did now. But I said nothing till the school bus came. About ten years
later, I drove him to the college. He was sick but I didn’t know then. I thought he was just too tired. I tried to think
of something to say as he would start a new period of life. Again, _______.
Now, as I stood before him, I thought of those opportunities we parents all let pass. A boy graduates from
school, a daughter gets married. We seldom find a quiet moment to tell them what they have meant to us. Or what
they might face in the future.
Sam was weak when he was born but grew into a strong boy. Then he became the best baseball player in high
school. His finest moment came when he got the first prize at a science fair. I was sorry he gave up his athletic
talent, but proud that later he chose English literature. One day, I told Sam I regretted never traveling abroad to
know better about the world before working. Sam a decided to learn German in Berlin, even though his friends
thought it meaningless.
The night before he was to leave, I failed to say any words again. Maybe, I thought, it wasn’t necessary to say
anything.
What does it matter if a father never tells a son what he really thinks of him? But as I stood before Sam, I
knew it does matter. My father and I loved each other. However, I always regretted never hearing him put his
feelings into words.
“Sam,” I said, “if I could have picked, I would have picked you.” I wasn’t sure he understood what I meant.
Sam came towards me and threw his arms around me, saying “thank your”. My eyes misted over（模糊）. Then,
the moment ended, and Sam left home.
That was seven weeks ago, and now I think about him when I walk along the beach near my home on
weekends. Thousands of miles away Sam might be busy walking in the street of Berlin.
What I had said to Sam was not new. It was nothing. But, it was everything.
（adapted from Words from a Father）
（ ）29. Which of the following can be put at the end of Paragraph 2?
A. I failed to say a word B. his illness worried me
C. I decided to go abroad D. his growth satisfied me
（ ）30. When Sam heard “if I could have picked, I would have picked you”, he might feel_________.
A. stressed B. sad C. calm D. excited
（ ）31. What does the writer mean by writing the last sentence “But, it was everything”?
A. A father should care about his son’s education.
B. A father should express deep love to his son.C. A son should take his father’s suggestion.
D. A son should respect his father’s decision.
C
Have you ever paid for educational podcasts （播客）or live videos? Ask some people and most of them will
say yes. “Pay-for-knowledge” has been more and more fashionable these years. The contents of these “pay-for-
knowledge” products are from language learning to gardening or baby-caring. Everything you think of can be
found online at this moment. “Pay-for-knowledge” is on the rise（兴起）.
Why is “pay-for-knowledge” industry developing so rapidly? First, its development is based on the Internet.
With a fast network and a smartphone, anyone who has passed the identity（身份） check can be an online
teacher, and anyone with an online account can buy “pay-for-knowledge” products that he or she wants at an
affordable price. Second, people are afraid to miss any information. On one hand, people hope for more useful
information. On the other hand, such information is usually at the hands of experts （专家） who serve well-
known companies and universities. Moreover, the need to learn new skills in today’s job market also pushes people
to learn on such educational podcasts.
The industry of “pay-for-knowledge” has proved to be lucrative. It promises possibilities of turning
information into money. It is good for the development of our country and it can help sellers make lots of money.
Besides, buyers can enjoy self-growth from it. What’s more, this is a reflection（反映）of respect for knowledge
and talents.
However, the rapid development of “pay-for-knowledge” has a few problems. For one thing, the market is full
of eye-catching words such as “How to be an Industry’s Expert in 5 Hours” and “15 Classes to Be a Master of
Appreciating （欣赏） Classical Music”, which sound like if you pay for it, you are sure to succeed. For another,
a large number of customers buy them Just for showing off. In fact, those who have really had self-growth after
buying online courses may be the kind of people who need them least. In other words, with or without these
courses, they can make it anyway, because they are those who have the ability to learn by themselves.
In general, the best is the one that suits you most. “Pay-for-knowledge” may be used as a good start for self-
growth. Be careful! Otherwise, your dream of success may not come true.
（ ）32. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?
A. “Pay-for-knowledge” products can help all the people succeed.
B. “Pay-for-knowledge” products can offer people different kinds of courses.
C. People who can teach themselves need “pay-for-knowledge” products most.
D. People must learn from experts who serve famous companies and universities.（ ）33. What can we learn about “pay-for-knowledge” industry from Paragraph 2?
A. The history of its development. B. The problems of its products.
C. The advantages of its products. D. The causes of its rise.
（ ）34. The underlined phrase “be lucrative” in Paragraph 3 means “_____________”.
A. produce lots of money B. get much information
C. win great respect D. enjoy self-growth
（ ）35. The main purpose of this passage is to___________.
A. recommend the “pay-for-knowledge” products to people
B. advise everyone to learn knowledge by themselves online
C. remind people to choose “pay-for-knowledge” products wisely
D. teach parents how to buy some online courses for their children

his weaknesses bravely and correct them. Then he will blossom many times.

Friends bring joy and fun to our life. To most of us, it’s always easy to make friends but hard to go on one
more step closer to our friends. The tips below will help you.
● Be yourself with your friends
Sometimes your friends may find out that your true personality is completely different from what they thought
it was. In order not to make them lose trust in you, find some proper time to tell them what you really often do and
like to do. And they may understand you.
● Get through the difficult times with small tricks
People never know what kind of chocolate they are going to taste. It is true of life. When your friends taste the
bad one, why not tell something funny about yourself, like “Am I like a round ball?” Hearing this, your friends may
be happy again. The best friends may not always agree with each other and even have few words for days. Some
small tricks like telling joke s or calling him or her nickname（绰号） may help you get along with your friends
better.
● Find proper ways to communicate warmly
There is no doubt that people like to communicate with their close friends as often as possible. Remember
those special days in your friends’ lives. Sometimes you book a table to help celebrate your friend’s birthday, but
when you call her, she tells you her birthday is not that day. Don’t make it happen and remember the exact date.
Having regular activities also provides good chances to meet and chat with your friends. Make sure your friends
will come and have fun.

Recently, the result of the national reading survey has been announced and it paints a brighter future for
reading habits in the Internet times. Last year, 21,270 men from 55 cities answered the survey . It showed that the
Chinese people’s reading rate increased slightly over the year before. Reading rate means the percentage of citizens
regularly reading books, newspapers and digital (数字) reading materials.
The survey shows that the daily reading time and yearly reading number of paper books, printed newspapers
and magazines have dropped, while digital reading has continuously increased. Every day Chinese people use
different digital devices like mobile phones, personal computers or iPads for 100.41 minutes on average （平均）,
15.5 percent higher than the year before.
According to the survey, Chinese people’s reading habits have changed because mobile provide more chances
to get different kinds of reading materials on digital platforms. More p than 50 percent of the Chinese people who
were interviewed prefer digital reading, mostly on mobile phones.
Another interesting result is that an increasing number of people like to listen to audiobooks （有声读物）.
More than 30 percent of the people who answered the survey listen to audiobooks, higher than the year before. It
may have something to do with the way people go to and from work-many people in the countryside drive or take
public transport for long hours, which leads to the greater need for audiobooks.
People’s reading habits are changing with social changes. In my opinion, the relevant authorities（相关机
构） should pay attention to it and shouldn’t fall behind.

七、书面表达（共1题，满分15分）
Possible version 1:
With the development of modern technology, the way of learning is changing. I think I still prefer the traditional
learning in a classroom. First, there is a fixed timetable. A clear plan is often made by a school, so I don’t need to
think about how to arrange when to learn different subjects. Second, we can have the face-to-face communication
with both teachers and classmates. Third, there are colorful activities in class. In this way, I can learn the new
knowledge happily. What’s more, learning in the classroom can help me develop a sense of team spirit, so I can
learn how to get along with others.
However, when I study in the classroom, sometimes I can’t follow my teacher. And learning in the classroom can’t
provide enough resources for me to choose from.Possible version 2:
With the development of modern technology, the way of learning is changing. I think I like the modem learning on
the Internet better. First, I have a flexible timetable. I can make a plan by myself. In this way I can have more free
time to arrange my life. Second, I can have the online communication with people from all over the world. They
may share something interesting about their lives with me. Besides, online learning also provides me with rich
learning resources. With the Internet, I can learn at any place. That’s really wonderful!
However, I think learning online for a long time is bad for my eyes. Also, sometimes I can’t control myself and I
will do something like chatting with my friends or playing computer game. That will have a bad influence on my
study.
