ASMR. It sunds like an illness r a gvernment department, I knw. Bui it is, in fact, ne f the few things that helps my brain stp whining (嗡嗡) at night. Or, at the very least, whir mre slwly.

Private jets receive ridiculus tax relief that hurt the envirnment
The blue jeans and T-shirts f the glbal elite are n mre cmfrtable than thse wrn by the middle class. They drink the same cffee and carry the same smartphnes. But a(n) 41 is grwing between the rich and the rest when they fly. Ordinary flk 42 sleeplessly int cheap seats. The elite stretch ut Hat, taking naps. This wuld be n ne else’s business but fr tw things. First, private jets are hrribly plluting. Secnd, they are ften and 43 subsidized (补贴).
Private airlines were 44 hard by the glbal financial crisis, when bth cmpanies and individuals sught t reduce expenses. But nw private jets are bming again, partly because new bking services and shared-wnership schemes are cutting the cst f ging private and 45 busy executives away frm first— and business-class seats n regular flights. But the bm is als a result f tax relief, which is even mre 46 than thse ffered t rdinary airlines. America’s rules are 47 still. Its tax refrm allwed individuals and cmpanies t avid paying 100% f the csts f a new r used private jet against their federal taxes, creating extrardinarily cheap jet purchases.
Flying n a private jet can help 48 n time fr thse whse time is extrardinarily valuable. Since cmpanies can avid paying their crprate-tax bills by presenting hw much these flights cst them, in sme cuntries the use f a private jet is a tax-free 49 fr executives. But a grwing vlume f research suggests that flying them 50 is ften a waste f mney fr sharehlders. The jets are ften used t fly t places where crprate senirs are mre likely t have hliday hmes than business meetings. 51 , users f such planes are mre likely t cmmit deceptin: a careless attitude t ther peple’s mney smetimes shades int cmplete criminality. The envirnmental effects f crprate jets are awful. The emissins fr new supersnic business jets under develpment will be many times higher. Amazingly, these emissins are largely 52 . Airlines are nt cvered by the Paris agreement t limit climate change, and mst private jets are 53 frm CORSIA, a carbn-ffsetting (碳补偿) scheme invlving mst airlines.
All air travel is bad fr the envirnment. The tax breaks fr cking the planet in this way cannt be 54 . They shuld all be abandned. Carbn emissins shuld be 55 , nt subsidised by the sleepless masses and the even less frtunate suls wh never fly.

Sectin B
Directins: Read the fllwing tw passage. Each passage is fllwed by several questins r unfinished statements. Fr each f them there are fur chices marked A, B, C and D. Chse the ne that fits best accrding t the infrmatin given in the passage yu have just read.
(A)
Spelling Bees (英语拼写大赛) have always been cute. But they’re abut t get cuter, because nw they will actually be abut smething. The Natinal Spelling Bee has annunced that hereafter, cntestants will have t knw the definitins f wrds as well as hw t write them ut. The latter is cruel mechanics, which nly beacame a thing t master and cmpete because f English’s awkward and randm spelling system. In cuntries where writing actually crrespnds regularly with hw wrds are prnunced, there is n such thing as a Spelling Bee.
Yet in thse cuntries, there is ften mre f a lve fr the language itself, even amng less educated peple. And lving yur language means a cmmand f its vcabulary beynd the level f the everyday. This appreciatin shws up in things they say that wuld nt “translate” int English. A Russian friend f mien nce said she fell in lve with her husband because f “his Russian.” Nte hw hard it is t imagine an American wman saying what hked her n her husband was “his English”. “The way he talked,” maybe, but nt smething as specific as his cmmand f the language in an artistic sense.
I recently attended a cnference where Castilians gave the pening addresses, in a distinctly frmal layer f Spanish. In English this wuld have sunded extremely bring even at a university. Yu can buy vlumes f high literature and petry at an rdinary train statin in Spain. At Lng Island railrad stps in America, nt.
Yet even in America there was nce a richer lve f English fr its wn sake. H. L. Mencken kncked Warren Harding fr “the wrst English that I have ever encuntered.” Tday we have kncked Gerge W. Bush fr “the way he talks” but nt smething as frmal as “his English.”
Tday we live in a sciety where in 2001, then President f the University f Califrnia Richard Atkinsn gt gd press with his annunced hrrr that high schl students spend hurs each mnth— directly and indirectly— preparing fr the SAT, studying lng lists f verbal analgies such as ‘‘untruthful is t mendaciusness” as ‘‘circumspect is t cautin.” In the ld days, that was called, well, schl.
Currently, America’s lve fr language fcuses n the infrmal. Rap and spken wrd have reawakened the cuntry t petry in itself. Texting and Twitter encurage creative uses f casual language, in ways I have celebrated widely. But we’ve fallen behind n enjying the frmal layer f ur language. Critics such as Stefan Fatsis have argued that adding a cmprehensin cmpnent t the Spelling Bee is, irnically, “small-minded.” It isn’t. It’s getting back in tuch with lving ur native language, smething rdinal in mst cultures n earth— but s lng unknwn t us that the Fatsises and Atkinsns amng us can barely imagine it.

A. it is a thing t master and cmpete in
B. peple d nt feel it cute anymre

B. American peple dn’t appreciate English in its frmal frm
C. an American wman will be easily attracted t a man by his way f talking
D. a frmal layer f English can nly be fund at an American university
58. It is implied in Paragraph 5 that ______.
A. the public felt the same hnr as Richard Atkinsn did
B. the SAT didn’t need s much attentin frm the students
C. high schl students shuld g t schl t prepare fr the SAT
D. verbal analgies shuld have been taught in the ld days

(C)
Fr smething that weighs nly abut three punds, the human brain has a lt f respnsibility. Deep within all thse gray flds and creases are the cntrls fr everything yu d.
Mre than a century ag, scientists first mapped the brain as they wrked t develp an understanding f each particular regin. Early n, the maps were simple: Which part f the brain cntrlled speech? Which cntrlled hearing? Having a detailed, accurate guide ensures that studies are using the same pints f reference and makes fr mre efficient, accurate investigatins.
Nw, hwever, things are much mre intricate. Researchers have just released an incredible new map f the brain, revealing nearly 100 new areas that were previusly undiscvered r frgtten. Many experts are calling this a milestne in neurscience accrding t the New Yrk Times. The new map has been published in the jurnal Nature.
The new map draws n data cllected by the Human Cnnectme Prject, which studied 1,200 peple using high-pwered MRI scanners t understand hw brain circuitry wrks. Fr the study, the participants’ brains were recrded while they laid in the scanner, while they did varius math prblems and memry tests, and while they listened t stries. Researchers drew bundaries based n where these and previus tests seemed t match. They als lked at anatmical differences, measuring, fr example, the amunt f myelin— a fatty substance that surrunds sme neurns— in different areas f the brain.
“We have 112 different types f infrmatin we can tap int,” study c-authr David Van Essen f Washingtn University Medical Schl tld the New Yrk Times.
With all thse variables in hand, researchers eventually created a map that included 83 already familiar areas f the brain, plus an additinal 97 regins that were either previusly undiscvered, r smehw frgtten and lst in scientific literature alng the way. Sme previusly knwn regins are hw brken dwn int sub-regins with separate respnsibilities. Fr example, the drslateral prefrntal crtex (背外侧额前叶皮层) is a large area tward the frnt f the brain that’s active during thught. The new map shws that it’s made up f many smaller areas that can be key fr different kinds f thught, ranging frm making decisins t lying.
While experts are lauding the new map, it’s far frm cmplete, say the researchers wh created it.
“We’re thinking f this as versin 1.0″, says lead authr Matthew Glasser, a neurscientist at Washingtn University Schl f Medicine.” That desn’t mean it’s the final versin, but it’s a far better map than the nes we’ve had befre.”
63. In the third paragraph, what des the wrd “intricate” mean?
A. amazing B. tricky C. cmplicated D. difficult
64. What’s the researchers1 attitude t new map f the brain?
A. They think it is still incmplete.
B. They think it is the best versin.
C. They dn’t like the new map f the brain.
D. They think it is a milestne in neurscience.
65. Which f the fllwing statements is TRUE accrding t the passage?
A. The new map included 97 unfamiliar areas f the brain.
B. The new map used previus data t study the brain circuitry.
C. Participants1 brains were mnitred when they were telling stries.
D. The drslateral prefrntal crtex is a small ares which is crucial fr thinking.
66. What is the main idea f the passage?
A. The respnsibility f the brain circuitry.
B. Mixed pinins n the new map f the brain.
C. A study n an incredible new map f the brain.
D. The understanding f the familiar areas f the brain.

Chinese palentlgists have identified at least tw new species f massive dinsaurs that nce wandered the Xinjiang Uyghur Autnmus Regin in nrthwestern China sme 130 millin years ag.
The newly-revealed bnes belnged t a grup f lng-necked plant-eating dinsaurs that include titansaurs, accrding t the study published Thursday in the peer-reviewed jurnal Scientific Reprts. (67) ______. And the ntable species like the Patagtitan mayrum estimated t be as lng as 37 meters lng.
The tw dinsaurs revealed in Thursday’s study are the first f their kind f be fund in the Turpan-Hami Basin in Xinjiang. Their discvered adds t the evidence that the regin hsted rich bidiversity during the Cretaceus perid that ended sme 66 millin years ag, accrding t the researchers.
Wang Xialin, the study’s lead authr, tld Sixth Tne that they unearthed the fssils between 2008 and 2016 in the vast areas f the Gbi Desert in the Turpan-Hami Basin. (68) ______.
“There are just s many ptersaur fssils in the regin, even their eggs and embrys,” said Wang, a palentlgist at the Institute f Vertebrate Palentlgy and Pale-anthrplgy f the Chinese Academy f Sciences. “(69) ______. S we didn’t have the time t deal with the dinsaur bnes discvered at the same time.”
Althugh a large desert nw, Wang assumed that the basin was nce hme t a huge lake and rich vegetatin, supprting billins f prehistric animals.
One f the dinsaurs mentined in the study, althugh incmplete, is thught t be f a large animal stretching ver 20 meters. Researchers have named it Silutitan sinensis, after the ancient Silk Rad trade rute that crssed Xinjiang.
(70) ______. The Hamititan is estimated t be at least 17 meters lng, researchers said.
“It’s very difficult t find cmplete fssils f large dinsaurs,” Wang said, explaining that the Gbi Desert’s envirnment weathers fssils quickly.
Researchers als fund several ther dinsaur bnes in the regin, but the specimens ffered scant infrmatin by which t be identified, accrding t die study.
IV. Summary Writing
Directins: Read the fllwing three passages. Summarize the main idea and the main pint(s) f the passage in n mre than 60 wrds. Use yur wn wrds as far as pssible.
Cllege students need textbks t help them learn and earn an academic degree. Hwever, n tp f tuitin, rm and bard and meals, why are textbks s expensive? Textbks cver many areas f knwledge. They are prepared specifically with a lt f infrmatin that include many riginal pictures, special charts, and specific data. Textbks are extremely useful t students fr learning and prfitable fr the cmpanies that publish them. While textbks can be a financial burden n the student, they can be prfitable fra bk scuter (侦察员).
A bk scuter is an pprtunist wh buys cheap used bks at thrift stres r bks sales, and sells them fr mre mney. Brand new textbks are the mst desired f bks fr scuters since they typically cst ver $100. Of curse, used textbks dn’t cst as much. But when the scuter ges t a thrift stre and bk sales at libraries, textbks can cst as little as several dllars. S, buying used textbks that are new is ne f the mst prfitable bks that sellers can buy.
Unfrtunately, many cllege textbk editins change every year, which eliminates the students chance t use last year’s editin. S, they will have t pay mre mney fr brand new textbks. The sad reality is that very few changes are generally made between editins.
Bk scuters search fr textbks as well as ther categries f bks available at lcal thrift stres r bk sales. Textbks that are new r relatively new are marked dwn t just a few dllars. Then they can be sld n Amazn fr ptentially high prfits. Amazn buys new textbks fr a lt mre mney than mst ther types f bks. If yu want t try scuting textbks t make a prfit, buy their newest editins r the nes ahead f them.
Althugh textbks can be expensive fr the average student, he r she culd ptentially sell them n Amazn fr the same price that they were purchased. Just remember, knwledge is pwer and can be prfitable t.
