With the new semester about to start, our school is welcoming a group of new international students. We have some apps here that will make your life easier. We hope you will have a wonderful life here.
★WeChat
WeChat is now the most popular social media app in China. Almost everyone is using WeChat. You can send both text and voice messages on WeChat. You can also make voice and video calls. You can also post texts, pictures and video clips. If your friends in your home country have this app, you can also chat with them through voice or video. WeChat is also widely used now as a form of payment which can be used in stores, online, and in other shopping apps.
★Alipay
Alipay is a similar app to PayPal. It was first used on Taobao and now people can still use it as a mobile payment option. You can even use mobile payment at street vendors, so if you have this app, you can leave your wallet at home.
★Didi
Now Didi seems to be the smartest way to travel around. With one tap, a car comes directly to you. Didi is a Chinese car-hailing service app. It has a function called “ride sharing”, which saves a lot of money for passengers. But it does not have an English version, so if you want to use it, you will have to learn some Chinese.
★Pleco
This is one of the top Chinese/English dictionary apps and it covers 130, 000 Chinese words and includes 20, 000 example sentences with pinyin. It is perfect for those who want to learn Chinese, and also for tourists who need to translate words or phrases from English to Chinese.

A growing number of families in China are able to afford a piano and lessons for their children. By2016, the number of children learning piano in China exceeded 30 million and the number has risen by 10percent every year since. The piano used to be a rare foreign import in China; now four in five are made here. Much of this can be traced back to the tiny Chinese island of Gulangyu.
After the first opium war in 1842, foreign powers forced the emperor to permit their residents to live in several “treaty ports”. One of those was Xiamen. Gulangyu, which lies just a five-minute ferry ride offshore, was an international settlement. The foreign residents popularised the piano as an everyday amusement. There was soon hardly a family on the island that did not host or go to hear an evening recital (演奏会).
For decades the island has achieved longstanding fame: the largest number of pianos per person in China. The result was a stream of outstanding musicians. The island’s most celebrated musician is YinChengzong. In 1969 he arranged an earlier revolutionary cantata () into the “Yellow River Piano Concerto”. It remains China’s most famous orchestral composition.
Where once Western classical music flowed into China, pianists and their works are pouring out. Of the 50 million children learning the instrument worldwide, as many as 40 million may be Chinese. The government lavishes money on orchestras, which now number over 80, and new concert halls. Demanding parents and cool young things fill them to hear the most talented pianists-among whom, in recent decades, have been Lang Lang, Li Yundi and Yuja Wang-play some beautifully judged Bach or fiendishly hard Rachmaninov. Although reports show that about 10 percent of learners born in the 1990s rarely touch the instrument after they have finished all the exams for amateur learners, most have made it part of their life.
24. What has the island of Gulangyu been known for?
A. Its geographic location. B. Its many outstanding musicians.
C. The history as an international settlement. D. The largest number of pianos per person in China.
25. The underlined word in paragraph 4 refers to __________.
A. children B. pianists C. concert halls D. musical instruments
26. What can we learn about piano?
A. Residents on Gulangyu hardly host or hear an evening recital
B. Chinese piano learners seldom play it after passing the exams.
C. Few talented Chinese pianists and famous pieces are coming out.
D. The foreigners living on Gulangyu made piano a household pastime.
27. What is the text mainly about?
A. How piano develops in China. B. Where piano in China originated.
C. Why piano is popular in Gulangyu. D. When piano was first brought to China.

C
Have you ever had a food that you tasted and you immediately disliked? Maybe it was broccoli, dark chocolate, or cottage cheese. Maybe you were “encouraged” to try the food again, and then one of those times you actually liked it. Many people have had this experience. While tastes are developed at a young age, they can be changed, which depends on a person’s desire to try.
Researchers at the University of Birmingham released a study that showed people have a flavor window. The flavor window is open for four-to-six-month-old babies. During this time, it is easier to get babies to try a food they have not previously tasted. As they grow up, the flavor window slowly closes, leaving most of them dubious of new foods.
However, the flavor window closing at a young age doesn’t mean it can’t be reopened. A study found that if babies are introduced to a new food 5 to 10 times, they can grow to like it. That amount goes up as children grow older. Ultimately, the study came to the conclusion that the flavor window may never be completely shut.
Being willing to try a new food repeatedly is necessary to open a person’s flavor window again. Each attempt will lessen the natural unwillingness of something new. Eventually, “not bad” can turn into “pretty good”. One method for inspiring courage to try new foods multiple times is testing different ingredients. Adding an ingredient-sugar or salt, perhaps-that one enjoys, might make an unappealing food more appealing. Once the person has trained him or herself to like the food, the added ingredient may not be necessary.
Overcoming a dislike of a particular food requires tasting a food in different ways and at different times. In spite of strange smells, odd textures, or distinctive flavors, a person has the ability to acquire a true liking for even the most unique and unusual foods. So don’t give up-you never know when you might surprise yourself and discover that broccoli is your new favorite food!
28. What does the study find about babies?
A. Babies are naturally unwilling to try new foods.
B. Babies develop a favorite food if they eat that food many times.
C. Babies are more likely to accept new foods when the flavor window is open.
D. Babies who are not exposed to new foods will experience a narrow flavor window.
29. What does the underlined word in paragraph 2 mean?
A. Greedy. B. Doubtful. C. Impatient. D. Bored.
30. Why does the author include paragraph 4 in the text?
A. To explain how adding sugar or salt improves the taste of foods
B. To highlight that there is no reason why people stop trying new foods.
C. To warn that people may have difficulty preparing new foods properly.
D. To suggest that people can expand their flavor preferences with time and effort.
31. Which of the following can be the best title for the text?
A. Don’t give up on broccoli. B. Try new foods before it is too late.
C. Ways to reopen your flavor window. D. A new study about your eating habits.

D
Engineers from the University at Buffalo, Fudan University in China, and the University of Wisconsin-Madison have come together with funding from the National Science Foundation to produce an efficient and cost-effective device that purifies drinking water using the world’s most abundant power source-the sun.
More than 2, 300 years ago, the philosopher Aristotle described the water cycle. He has explained that water is heated by the sun, evaporates (蒸发) up into the air, condenses (凝结) into drops, and then falls back to the ground, pure and free of pollutants.
Professor Qiaoqiang Gan and the other engineers created a method of purifying water that builds upon Aristotle’s ancient observations. Gan’s team invented a solar water purifier that is a modern version of an evaporative solar still. This device looks like the roof of a tent, with strips () of carbon-coated paper covering the top so that the paper strip hangs down on the sides. The ends of the paper strip dip into a water container at the bottom. Gradually, the water in the container is absorbed by the paper. When the black carbon coating on the paper is heated by the sun, the wet paper begins to dry. During evaporation, salt, dirt, bacteria, and other pollutants are trapped in the paper. As the temperature cools, water droplets begin to condense on the surface of the paper. The purified water is collected in a clean container and is ready to drink.
There are a few key advantages of the solar water purifier. First, the device is quick and efficient. The solar still can generate up to 5 gallons of clean water daily, which is enough to provide sufficient drinking water for a family. Furthermore, this solar water purifier is cheaper than other water-purification devices because it is made with inexpensive and widely available materials.
There are also disadvantages in terms of the adaptation to diverse environments on Earth and the building up of salt in the process. Currently, the engineers are working to make their purifier available worldwide. Soon, drinkable water will be purified and accessible where it is needed.
32. Why does the author mention Aristotle and the water cycle in the text?
A. To catch readers’ attention and interest.
B. To add more authority to the new invention.
C. To show the history of the solar water purifier.
D. To help illustrate the basic working principles of the invention
33. What is the main function of the carbon-coated paper?
A. To cover the top. B. To collect clean water.
C. To hang down on the sides. D. To absorb water and heat from the sun.
34. What is paragraph 3 mainly about?
A. What the researchers have done.
B. How the solar water purifier works.
C. What the solar water purifier can do.
D. How similar Aristotle’s observation is to the purifier.
35. What might the author think of the future of the solar water purifier?
A. Dark. B. Uncertain. C. Promising. D. Unpredictable.

36 We need them to be our guides on the twisting, sometimes difficult road we call life to shows just how far we can go, to help us know just how high we can climb.
And we need heroes today more than ever. Our modern society is terribly confused about the difference between a hero and a celebrity (名人). And the difference is significant. A celebrity is all about fame-temporary, superficial fame, usually for qualities that are easy to see: a pretty face, a great dance move. 37 --qualities beneath the surface that aren’t visible until they prompt action. Qualities like courage, hope, compassion (同情), and perseverance (毅力).
Heroes, real heroes, are all around us. They truly hold our world together, through their unselfish devotion to helping others, supporting families, teaching children, protecting the environment. 38 They just want to help. In so many ways, these unsung heroes steer (the boat in which all of us sail
Yet, young people hear a lot more about celebrities than about heroes. 39 The underlying message they get from all this is that their self-worth comes from what they buy-which drink, which shoes, which cell phone-not who they are down inside. Young people’s sense of their own potential for heroic qualities-their own power to make a positive difference in the world is lost.
Truth is, there is a potential hero, a future difference maker, in every young person. Each of them, from whatever background, is a large amount of untapped (未开发的) energy--a positive force who can do something to steer that communal boat that carries us all. 40
A. A hero, by contrast, is about character
B. They don’t want fame, or glory, or even credit
C. All of us-especially young people-need heroes
D. All of us need to believe in our own abilities to help people in need
E. Worse yet, young people are treated too often as just another target market by advertisers
F. They have discovered that they can build on their own energy and ideals to do something truly great
G. If young people believe in their own power and use it, they will discover that any person can make a genuine, lasting impact

Stephen pushed his foot down hard on the gas pedal () as he was on the racetrack. The roar of the engine was loud. Stephen loved the sound. At the speed he was going, audiences flashed by as fast as thoughts. “Nothing beats racing. “Stephen said to himself.
Stephen hadn’t come from a “racing family”, and he couldn’t afford a good racing car. But with the help of his uncle, who worked as a mechanic at the local repair shop, Stephen’s car was fast enough to compete.
Not far ahead was the race’s leader, Jack, whose car was so well equipped and stayed just out of Stephen’s reach. Both boys wanted to win. No other cars were close to the two leaders.
Stephen pressed harder on the gas, but his car was already at top speed. Jack’s car pulled away. Stephen had no choice but to fall behind him as they slowed to go into the next turn.
Stephen concentrated as he made a long right-hand turn, then accelerated onto the straightaway (直道) His foot pressed hard against the Pedal. Still, the engine on Jack’s car was too powerful, and Jack pulled away. Stephen wasn’t going to be satisfied with second place today. The winner would get tickets to the professional championship race-presented by two-time champion Mike Gordon.
On the last turn, Stephen drew directly behind Jack. He pulled beside Jack’s car. Their engine screamed. Then, as it had so many times before, Jack’s car pulled ahead.
The finish line was approaching them, closer, closer. . . The race was over. Stephen came in second. As he climbed out of the car, his vision blurred with tears. He remembered what other drivers had sometimes said, “Second place is just first loser. “
“Great work, kid!” said a man’s voice.

第一节：书面表达（满分15分）
Dear David,
Last Friday, our school organized a knowledge contest themed “Wildlife Protection”, which turned out to be a great success.
As scheduled, this contest kicked off at 3 p. m. in the school auditorium. To begin with, 12 participants went on stage in order, giving a brief introduction. After that. they took turns to answer the questions given by the host. The contestants who did not give the right answers in time were knocked out immediately. The whole contest climaxed with two finalists battling for five minutes until one spoke out the answer --Tibetan antelopes.
This activity received high praise, as not only did it provide a platform for students to show their good knowledge base, but it also raised their awareness of wildlife protection.

第二节（满分25分）
Stephen turned and he couldn’t believe the man was Mike Gordon. Mike reached out to shake Stephen’s hand. Astonishment rooted Stephen to the ground who even forgot to hold out his hand. He wondered if the great driver had mistaken him for Jack, who was now jumping up and down excitedly in celebration. A few seconds later, Stephen embarrassedly looked around, pointing in Jack’s direction and said, You are probably looking for him, Mr. Gordon. I only came in second. “Mike shrugged, “I know that, Stephen. Every race has a winner, but that’s not the only thing racing is about.”
Stephen was surprised to hear such words from a two-time champion. Depression seized him at the thought of his failure and he felt puzzled---isn’t winning the race what it is all about? Patting him on the shoulder, Mike beamed a warm smile, “Getting 100 percent out of yourself is what matters most. And today, you have made it. “Stephen went quiet for a moment, reflecting on Mike’s words. Then, he seemed to have understood, nodding his head firmly and muttering to himself, “Yeah, I guess I have done the best I can! A champion is not the only criterion to define me”, with a broad smile spreading over his face.

One possible version:
Last Friday, our school organized a knowledge contest themed “Wildlife Protection”, which turned out to be a great success.
As scheduled, this contest kicked off at 3 p. m. in the school auditorium. To begin with, 12 participants went on stage in order, giving a brief introduction. After that. they took turns to answer the questions given by the host. The contestants who did not give the right answers in time were knocked out immediately. The whole contest climaxed with two finalists battling for five minutes until one spoke out the answer --Tibetan antelopes.
This activity received high praise, as not only did it provide a platform for students to show their good knowledge base, but it also raised their awareness of wildlife protection.

Stephen turned and he couldn’t believe the man was Mike Gordon. Mike reached out to shake Stephen’s hand. Astonishment rooted Stephen to the ground who even forgot to hold out his hand. He wondered if the great driver had mistaken him for Jack, who was now jumping up and down excitedly in celebration. A few seconds later, Stephen embarrassedly looked around, pointing in Jack’s direction and said, You are probably looking for him, Mr. Gordon. I only came in second. “Mike shrugged, “I know that, Stephen. Every race has a winner, but that’s not the only thing racing is about.”
Stephen was surprised to hear such words from a two-time champion. Depression seized him at the thought of his failure and he felt puzzled---isn’t winning the race what it is all about? Patting him on the shoulder, Mike beamed a warm smile, “Getting 100 percent out of yourself is what matters most. And today, you have made it. “Stephen went quiet for a moment, reflecting on Mike’s words. Then, he seemed to have understood, nodding his head firmly and muttering to himself, “Yeah, I guess I have done the best I can! A champion is not the only criterion to define me”, with a broad smile spreading over his face.

And the mini-bar was all a mistake! I had this big birthday cake-it’s for you sir. And I wanted to keep it cold, so I took everything out of the mini-bar. I didn’t realize that it automatically registered a charge when you removed something. Sir, it’s a beautiful cake. But I dropped it on the carpet when I took it out of the mini-bar.
