Today’s grandparents are joining their grandchildren on social media, but the different generations’ online habits couldn’t be more different. In the UK the over-55s are joining Facebook in increasing numbers, meaning that they will soon be the site’s second biggest user group, with 3.5 million users aged 55-64 and 2.9 million over-65s.
Sheila, aged 59, says, “I joined to see what my grandchildren are doing, as my daughter posts videos and photos of them. It’s a much better way to see what they’re doing than waiting for letters and photos in the post. That’s how we did it when I was a child, but I think I’m lucky I get to see so much more of their lives than my grandparents did.”
Interestingly, Sheila’s grandchildren are less likely to use Facebook themselves. Children under 17 in the UK are leaving the site—only 2.2 million users are under 17-butthey’re not going far from their smartphones. Chloe, aged 15, even sleeps with her phone. “It’s my alarm clock so I have to,” she says. “I look at it before I go to sleep and as soon as I wake up.”
Unlike her grandmother’s generation, Chloe’s age group is spending so much time on their phones at home that they are missing out on spending time with their friends in real life. Sheila, on the other hand, has made contact with old friends from school she hasn’t heard from in forty years. “We use Facebook to arrange to meet all over the country,” she says. “It’s changed my social life completely.”
Parents have an important role to play if they want their kids to spend more time in real life. Peter, 38, who spends most of his time in front of a screen, is recently determined to set a better example to his kids. In the evening or at weekends, he would leave his smartphone home and take his kids out to nature.
4、What can we learn from Paragraph 1?
A. Older people have difficulty using social media.
B. Children spend more time with their grandparents.
C. More and more elders begin to use social media.
D. Social media have become more friendly to the elderly.

B. Young people are getting away from their smartphone.
C. More young people choose to meet their friends in person.
D. Social media actually help old people to meet their friends.
7、What’s the best title for this passage?

If you’ve ever had a dog, you know just how deep a connection you can develop with “man’s best friend”. But a dog’s life is much shorter than humans, about 12 to 15 years long, which means every dog owner has to go through the heartbreaking moment when their loving pet passes away.
Why not make a clone of that dog then? This is the solution offered by a South Korean company, Sooam Biotech Research Foundation. The company has already successfully cloned at least 400 dogs, mostly for US customers, ever since it pioneered the technique in 2005. Now, Sooam Biotech has introduced its business to UK dog owners as well, offering them dogs that look just like their lost ones.
To clone a dog, researchers first need to take a skin cell from a living dog or one that has just died. Meanwhile, another dog is selected to supply an egg. Researchers then replace the DNA in the egg with that from the skin cell and implant the egg into the womb(子宫) of a female dog. The egg grows into a puppy over the following two months.
The whole process takes less than a day, but it comes at a shockingly high price—around ￡63,000. But if you can’t afford it now, you can also save the cell in a laboratory and access it at a later date.
However, magical as cloning might sound, there is no guarantee that the cloned dog will be a perfect copy of the original one. Just like identical twins of humans, they share the exactly same DNA but there will still be small differences between them. “The spots on a Dalmatian(斑点狗) clone will be different, for example,” Insung Hwang, head of Sooam Biotech, told The Guardian.
Dog owners will also have to accept the fact that personality is not “clone-able”. Apart from genes, personality is also determined by upbringing and environment, which are both random elements that cloning technologies simply cannot overcome, Professor Tom Kirkwood at Newcastle University, UK, told The Telegraph.
Perhaps bringing our dogs back by cloning is not the best way to remember them after all. Kirkwood, a dog owner himself, pointed out, “An important aspect of our relationship with them is coming to terms with the pain of letting go.”
8、What service does Sooam Biotech Research Foundation offer?
A.Making copies of pet dogs.
B.Giving pet dogs identical twins.
C.Helping dogs give birth to more puppies.
D.Helping dog owners love their dogs more.
9、Which order is correct in the dog cloning process?
a. An egg is taken from another dog.
b. A skin cell is taken from the pet dog.
c. The egg grows into a puppy in two months.
d. The egg is placed in the womb of a female dog.
e. The DNA in the egg is replaced by the DNA from the skin cell.
A.a→d→b→e→c B.a→e→b→d→c
C.b→a→d→e→c D.b→a→e→d→c
10、What can we learn about dog cloning from the passage?
A.It has not been put into practice until recently.
B.It is very popular among US and UK pet owners.
C.It might not give the owners an exactly same dog.
D.It is very expensive and usually takes half a year to complete.
11、What does Kirkwood think of dog cloning?
A.He disagrees with it. B.He supports it.
C.He is curious about it. D.He thinks it unbelievable.
The “24 solar terms” (节气) originated and was firstly used in China. It was created thousands years ago on the basis of practical needs of agriculture. Ancient Chinese people used it to guide agriculture production, special climate signs and even healthy living tips. Last year, the 24 solar terms was added to UNESCO’s world cultural heritage list. Now, it has been brought to life thanks to a creative designer from Southwest China’s Guizhou province.
On the eve of this year’s Qingming Festival, Shi Changhong released (发布) his version of re-produced and packaged characters for each solar term in the form of “moving art” of gifts. Since their first release on Zcool on March 29, the gifs have won great praise among the general public and quickly flooded social media with millions of hits during the festival period.
To maximize publicity, Shi released his work in three forms: video, animation and picture. The background sounds add to the brilliance.
“When I watch the short video, I can strongly feel the Chinese-style elements hidden in them. And it is really cool to liven up Chinese traditional culture in such a unique way.” WeChat user Xiao Feifei said.
“It is really a comfort to me to see so many people like my latest work. To be honest, it would really surprise me if the work does not arouse great interest among Chinese people. The 24 solar items is a deeply rooted concept that covers the essence of Chinese wisdom. However, only a small portion of people know all the names or the correct order of those terms. My intention is to increase Chinese people’s self awareness to learn more about our traditional fine culture. Actually, the 24 solar items work is only a part of my whole design program ‘Charm China’, which I started over a year ago.” Shi told China Daily.
12、Which part of the newspaper does the text probably belong to?
A. Travel. B. Culture. C. Agriculture. D. Education.

C. Most old people know all the names of the correct order of the 24 solar terms.
D. The 24 solar items work designed by Shi Changhong was added to UNESCO’s heritage list.

B. To introduce the 24 solar items work.
C. To introduce the origin of the 24 solar terms.

③细节理解题。根据后文According to a recent research, perfectionism is linked to health issues such as eating disorders and depression. Perfectionism can also seriously impact your creativity.

32、答案：①studying②an③at④probably⑤freedom⑥bought⑦whom⑧their⑨successful⑩is called
解析：①考查现在分词。句意:1970年10月7日,在伦敦Regen's Park的长椅上,一位正在伦敦商学院攻读MBA学位的年轻人遇到了一位第一次来到伦敦的爱尔兰女孩。分析可知,句中谓语为"met",因此所填动词应是非谓语作后置定语修饰之前名词a young man,与其之间为主动关系,用现在分词形式。故填studying。
②考查冠词。句意：这个年轻人即将成为克莱斯勒公司的一名工程师。空后engineer为可数名词单数，因此所填空应是不定冠词作限定词，表泛指；该名词发音以元音音素开头，故用不定冠词an。
③考查介词。句意:他们俩一见钟情,一年后结婚了。fall in love at first sight,固定短语,意为"一见钟情"。故填at。
④考查副词。句意:通常情况下,他们可能会各自找到一份稳定的工作,过着中产阶级的生活。分析可知,副词作状语修饰之后动词短语"get a stable job and live a middle-class life day"。故填probably。
⑤考查名词。句意:但是他们认为他们想要生活中更多的自由。分析可知,空前more 为形容词"much"的比较级,因此所填空应是名词,与more搭配作动词wanted的宾语。故填freedom。
⑥考查时态。句意:结果,这对年轻夫妇一年后买了一辆小汽车,开始了穿越欧洲和亚洲的陆路旅行。分析可知,所填空应是句子谓语,结合空后并列谓语"started"为一般过去时,应用一般过去时。故填bought。
⑦考查非限制性定语从句。句意:在这里,他们遇到了许多想独自旅行的人,他们都渴望知道这对夫妇自己旅行的细节。分析可知,"all of _____ were eager to know the details of their travels."应是之前名词many other people的非限制性定语从句,先行词在从句中担当介词of的宾语,指人,应用关系代词whom。故填whom。
⑧考查形容词性物主代词。句意:所以这对夫妇出版了一本书来分享他们的旅行经历,最后,他们开了一家公司,普及了各种旅行知识和经历,从而成为了世界上非常成功的背包客。空后为名词短语"travel experiences",所填空应是形容词性物主代词。故填their。
⑨考查形容词。句意:所以这对夫妇出版了一本书来分享他们的旅行经历,最后,他们开了一家公司,普及了各种旅行知识和经验,从而成为了世界上非常成功的背包客。空后为名词"backpackers",所填空应是形容词作其定语。故填successful。
⑩考查被动语态。句意:这个年轻人叫托尼•惠勒,那个爱尔兰女孩叫莫伦•惠勒。根据句中and可知,前后句为并列句,所填空应的前句谓语,与主语之间为被动关系,结合后句时态为一般现在时,所填空应是一般现在时被动结构。故填is called。
33、答案：
Dear Sir/Madam,
I've learned that the English Association of our school is now in need of some volunteers to receive foreign students visiting our school. I'm writing to apply to join it, thinking that I'm well qualified for the job.
For one thing, I have developed fluency in spoken English. I have no difficulty communicating with them. For another, I have accumulated related experience by working part-time in a travel agency, accompanying some foreign tourists. And I treasure this as a good chance to broaden my perspective as well as improve my spoken English.
Looking forward to your reply at your convenience.
Yours,
Li Hua

34、答案：
At one station, a big man with cuts on his face got on the train. He sat down across from Adam and looked at him coldly. Since the boy was traveling alone for the first time, he got frightened seeing that man. So he looked away and tried to sleep. But he couldn’t help thinking about that man, especially the scar on the man’s face. He wanted to go and ask the train conductor to change his seat but he feared to tell the conductor his idea.
Then he remembered his father’s letter. He put his hand in his pocket quietly and took out the letter. His father had written, “Don’t be afraid, my little brave man. Just imagine I am here with you on the train, in the neighbouring car.” After reading that letter, the boy’s face lit up without any fear. He put back the letter in his pocket, and then put on his headphone. With relaxing music, he soon fell asleep.
