We were on the bus then. I was crying, and some people on the bus were turning around to look at me. I remember that I could not bear the thought of never hearing again the radio program for school children to which I listened every morning.I do not remember myself crying for this reason again. In fact, I think I cried very little when I was saying goodbye to my friends and relatives. When we were leaving I thought about all the places I was going to see—the strange and magical places I had known only from books and pictures. The country I was leaving never to come back was hardly in my head then.The four years that followed taught me the importance of optimism, but the idea did not come to me at once. For the first two years in New York I was really lost—having to study in three schools as a result of family moves. I did not quite know what I was or what I should be. Mother remarried, and things became even more complex for me. Some time passed before my stepfather and I got used to each other. I was often sad, and saw no end to “the hard times”.My responsibilities in the family increased a lot since I knew English better than everyone else at home. I wrote letters, filled out forms, translated at interviews with Immigration officers, took my grandparents to the doctor and translated there, and even discussed telephone bills with company representatives.From my experiences I have learned one important rule：almost all common troubles eventually go away！Something good is certain to happen in the end when you do not give up, and just wait a little！I believe that my life will turn out all right, even though it will not be that easy.1. How did the author get to know America?A. From her relatives. B. From her mother.C. From books and pictures. D. From radio programs.2. Upon leaving for America the author felt ________.A. confused B. excited C. worried D. amazed3. For the first two years in New York, the author ________.A. often lost her way B. did not think about her futureC. studied in three different schools D. got on well with her stepfatherBHey, mom,I want you to stop dropping me off at the airport for some trip that I am about to take and start becoming my seatmate. I want to travel with you — just you.I want to explore a new place with a woman who raised me, who put up with my teenager anxiety and my rebellious (叛逆的) college years. I want to see my favorite cities with the lady who taught me basic life lessons, such as looking both ways before crossing the street, how to use a glue gun, and that the most important thing in the world is to help others.I always appreciated the vacations you planned for our family. I also remember how you watched me as I read The Great Gatsby on the balcony at midday. I wonder if you felt proud of me. These days, I am sick of traveling to places with wishy-washy (无主见的) friends. I want to travel with a strong woman who can see how capable I am of learning to speak French or hiking on a glacier or eating something as unpleasant-smelling fruit.Now I want you to see how much I grow up while abroad — I’m a different person, Mom. And I know you’d be different too. I know that someone has shared a similar burst of emotion while diving into Australia’s Great Barrier Reef for the first time.So what do you say, Mom? Will you throw responsibility to the wind? I want to travel with you. Let’s just go — we can go anywhere in the world, just you and I. You can pick the place, and I will do the rest.Love,Katka4. Which of the following is not the life lesson Katka’s mother taught her?A. Looking both ways when crossing the street.B. How to use a glue gun.C. Exploring a new place alongside her mother.D.

To thank her mother for all she has sacrificed for her.B. To invite her mother to see the world together.C. To recall her childhood with her mother.D. To show her mother how talented she is.CA KFC in North Platte, Nebraska received a letter like on other in their mailbox last week. Owner Rocky said he was shocked to see someone had written his store to apologize for stealing chicken! Along with the note were two $1 bills in order to repay for the chicken this “thief” took from the buffet(自助餐) line! Wow! Talk about an honest cheat!There was no return address on the envelop and Rocky says he wishes he knew who this fried chicken snatcher (小偷) was! Not so he could catch her and bring her to justice but rather because he’d like to give her some free food! Rocky said, “It seems as if her conscience got the best of her. I really wish I knew who it was. I would buy her a few meals.”The unknown moral letter writer explained just what went down while she was visiting the fast food restaurant, admitting, “This $2 is for the piece of chicken I brought home with me on Tuesday. That’s stealing. Sorry! I took more on my plate than I could eat and I knew it would get thrown away there because it couldn’t get put back on the buffet, so I put it in my purse and brought it home. I do love your chicken!”She then asked for the restaurant’s forgiveness, since she felt someone else had already forgiven her. She said, “Anyway, God has forgiven me and I hope you will too.

The plastic security trays －used at airport checkpoints around the globe and touched by millions of passengers as they drop shoes, smartphones, baggage and other items into them to clear X-ray scanners－have been found to have a variety of germs in them, including the ones responsible for the common cold, according to researchers in Europe.Scientists from the University of Nottingham in England examined frequently touched surfaces at Helsinki Airport in Finland during and after peak hours in the winter of 2016 and found rhinovirus, the source of the common cold in them. They found it on half the baggage trays, more than on any of the other surfaces they tested. It wasn't found on toilet surfaces at the airport. The findings could help improve public health strategies in the fight against the spread of infectious diseases worldwide.The European Union has funded a research project, called PANDHUB, on preventing the spread of“high--threat ” pathogens(病原体) on public transportation, and the study by the University of Nottingham is part of that project ."The presence of germs in the environment of an airport has not been examined previously, said Niina Ikonen, who was involved in the study.Finavia, the company that operates Helsinki Airport, said in an email,“At Finavia airports, the hygiene(卫生) standards are applied in accordance with health officials' requirements－all surfaces are cleaned daily and all security checkpoint trays, etc., are washed regularly."Washing your hands properly and coughing into a tissue or sleeve, especially in public places, can help minimize the risk of catching infectious diseases, said Jonathan Van-Tam, a professor at the University of Nottingham. "These simple measures can help prevent the spread of germs and are most important in crowded areas like airports that have a high volume of people traveling to and from many different parts of the world." he added.12. What should air passengers do according to Van-Tam?A. Avoid touching other people . B. Spend less time at the airport .C Bring as little luggage as possible . D. Try to reduce the effect of their coughs .13. What is special about the study?A. It focuses on"high-threat" pathogens .B. It is the first to test for microbes on surfaces at airports.C. It has found a new way to cure infectious diseases .D. It has led to a research project called PANDHUB.14. What did Finavia express in the email?A. They explained why hygiene was important .B. They felt quite doubtful about the findings.C. They had recognized their mistakes .D. They had done what was required.15. What did the scientists find at Helsinki airport?A. Airport security trays had a lot of germs in them.B. Wet surfaces offered good places for germs to live.C. Viruses spread quicker during and after peak hours.D. Airline passengers were more likely to catch a cold on planes.第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分)阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。How to Make a Chinese Hot PotEating a Chinese hot pot is a very common experience.

Pappy was working alone fixing an old lantern in the backroom when he heard the ringing of his bell on the shop door. The bell, which produced a uniquely pleasant sound, had been in Pappy’s family for over a hundred years. He valued it dearly and enjoyed sharing its song with all who came to his shop. Although the bell hung on the inside of the main door, Pappy had tied a wire to the screen door so that it would ring whether the inner door was open or not. Hearing the bell, he left the backroom to greet his customer.“And how can I help you, little lady?” Pappy’s voice was joyful.“Hello, sir.” The little girl spoke almost in a whisper. She looked at Pappy with her big brown eyes, and then slowly scanned the room in search of something special. Shyly she told him, “I’d like to buy a present, sir.”“Well, let’s see,” Pappy said, “who is this present for?”“My grandpa. It’s for my grandpa. But I don’t know what to get.”Pappy began to make suggestions. “How about a pocket watch? It’s in good condition.” The little girl didn’t answer. She had walked to the doorway and put her small hand on the door. She shook the door gently to ring the bell. Pappy’s face seemed to glow as he saw her smiling with excitement.“This is just right.” the little girl said. “Momma says grandpa loves music.”Just then, Pappy’s expression changed. Fearful of breaking the little girl’s heart, he told her, “I’m sorry, Missy. That’s not for sale. Maybe your grandpa would like this little radio.”The girl looked at the radio, bowed her head, and sadly sighed, “No, I don’t think so.”In an effort to help her understand, Pappy told her that the bell had been his only companion, for the rest of his family were all gone, except for his estranged (疏远的) daughter whom he had not seen for nearly a decade.注意：续写词数应为150左右；请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。Paragraph 1:With a giant tear in her eye, the little girl looked up at him. ______________________________________________________________________________________Paragraph 2:Later that evening when Pappy was closing up the shop, he heard a familiar ringing. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
