A
Whether you are crazy about cycling or not, when it comes to purchasing a bike, the choice is endless, making it tough to know what to go for. Here are the best buys on the market right now.
Boardman CX Comp
This is a cross country bike, and it’s so multi-functional that you can handle any terrain(地势) on it, making it a great choice for those wanting to try various cycling subjects. If you leave on the thick tires it comes with, it can ride on various paths and can even handle some less demanding mountain bike routes. Alternatively, put on thin, smooth tires and treat it as a road bike. It has a basket and conics with Shimano Sora gears(变速器), which are outstanding for its price.（￡650，IIalfords)
Planet XRT-58 V2
Planet X is based in Yorkshire, which means you’d probably have to buy this bike without seeing it. But it’s worth it, because this is an excellent machine at a lower price. Planet X is a highly rated manufacturer and this model comes with Shimano Sora gearing.(￡585，Planet X)
Specialized Allez E5
Specialized is one of the biggest and most popular brands in cycling, and this is its hugely popular primary road bike. It comes with solid components from front to back and you’ll look great out on the road. (￡75, Evans Cycles)
Boardman Road Team Carbon
If you can push your budget (预算) further still, this bike is worth the extra investment. The frame is made entirely from carbon, which is lighter, faster and more comfortable than the composition (复合) metal models above and gives you an all-round and more enjoyable ride. It also means that if you get really serious about cycling, you don’t have to upgrade as quickly as you would with a cheaper bike. Besides, it also comes with Shimano Sora gearing. (￡800, Halfords)
21.What is special about Boardman CX Comp?
A. Its various functions. B. Its firm tires.
C. Its light form. D. Its reasonable price.
22. What can we learn about the bikes mentioned in the text?
A. Planet XRT-58 V2 has been sold out so far.
B. Boardman Road Team Carbon is made by a special material.
C. Specialized Allez E5 is designed for senior cyclists.
D. Boardman CX Comp is just a mountain bike.
23. In which part does the text probably appear in the newspaper?

B
Marissa Sumathipala, a student at Broad Run High School outside of Washington, D.C, was practicing with her recreational figure-skating team when she crashed with another skater. Her head hit against the ice heavily. Everything went black.
Up to that point, Sumathipala’s entire life had centred around her sport -- her daily schedule, exercise routine, even her diet. She had hopes of making the 2018 Olympic team. The fall on the ice would change everything, including her direction.
Sumathipala had a brain injury and it ended her skating career. Symptoms lasted for years. Her memory felt unclear at times. She’d find herself dizzy, sick, or exhausted. Sumathipala consulted doctors, so many that she “lost count”. But no one had answers.
Sumathipala began to realize that there was so much unknown about the brain. She set out to find the answers herself, a path that would eventually bring her to Harvard University, where she’d concentrate in the human brain. Throughout her four years, Surmathipala homed in on brain science, She worked with the McCarroll Lab at Harvard Medical School, helping develop a new method for sequencing synapses (神经突序列) in the brain, which are crucial for memory and learning. Even as an undergraduate, her colleagues were so struck by how mature her thinking already was about science that she quickly became a trusted and valued member of the lab.
Also, Sumathipala competed with the Harvard Figure Skating Club all four years. She helped increase its membership and introduced new skaters to the sport she still loves. “I spent a long time struggling with my identity,” she said. “Growing up I was just a skater and then, when I got injured, I had to rebuild my identity. Then I was a scientist. Now, I identify as being both a skater and a scientist.”
Reflecting on her years at Harvard, Sumathipala said one of the things she’s most grateful for is seeing how things have come full circle for her.
24. What do we know about Sumathipala’s injury?
A. It changed her life direction.
B. It led to her loss of eyesight
C. It stopped her skating eventually.
D. It was easily cured by doctors.

25. In what way did Sumathipala think she could find the answer to her disease?
A. Turning to doctors. B. Go on practicing.
C. Doing research on brain herself. D. Rebuilding her identity.
26. Which of the following can best describe Marissa Sumathipala?
A. creative and sensible
B. quick-minded and imaginative
C. adventurous and self-challenging
D. perseverant and ambitious
27. What made things come full circle for Sumathipala?
A. Deep love for figure skating.
B. The praise from her lab colleagues.
C. Her determination to achieve life goals.
D. Good relationship with new skaters.
C
Chatting in her bright two-bedroom flat, Shirley Meredeen, aged 91, doesn’t hesitate to describe the benefits of living here. “It keeps my brain going. We are all very active because there is so much to do...We’re really lucky to have such a supportive community.”
In 1998, Meredeen first heard of the concept of cohousing as developed in the Netherlands and decided to copy its model in the U.K. and create the Older Women’s Co-Housing (OWCH) with her friends. But they didn’t imagine that it would be an 18-year struggle. The novelty of the idea coupled with the lack of data to prove the social and economic benefits made it difficult for them to access public money. Councils always compared their idea to sheltered accommodation and saw it as a burden for their already overstretched budgets.
In fact, the community-led housing is a departure from the conventional understanding of later life. Now, the community comprises 25 flats as well as a shared kitchen, meeting room, laundry, garden, car park and a guest room. People live together based on interdependence. They can take control of their future instead of relying on their families or care homes. All the neighbors look out for each other, not after each other, which means accompanying to medical appointments, doing the local shopping, having family contacts in preparation for an emergency... But the limits of such informal care among residents still need to be worked out.
OWCH has paved the way for alternative living arrangements in later life and the support for community-led housing is starting to emerge in the form of guidance and funding, according to the UK Cohousing Network.

28. What do we know about Meredeen?
A. She first tried cohousing in the Netherlands.
B. She is a regular visitor to OWCH
C. She is a pioneer in elderly care service.
D. She founded OWCH single-handed.
29. Why did it take such a long time to set up OWCH?
A. It didn’t benefit social economy.
B. It didn’t keep up with the time
C. It called for careful budgeting.
D. It was hard to get public funding.
30. Which is probably the reason why seniors choose OWCH?
A. They are more independent.
B. They are responsible for each other.
C. They receive more care services.
D. They can rely on their relatives.
31.What is the purpose of the text?
A. To describe an ambitious figure.
B. To introduce a new lifestyle of seniors.
C. To ensure elderly people’s welfare.
D. To inspire the aged to achieve their dreams.
D
The rise of the robots has raised the possibility of a future where there is simply less work for humans to do. To tired office workers, a world where we all have a bit more leisure time sounds rather nice. Yet what really matters is how work will be distributed across the workforce.
The recent study shows there is no reason to believe it will be evenly (均衡地) spread. The length of the average working week in the U.K. has declined steadily from about 59 hours in the mid-19th century to 32 hours in 2009. But averages hide a lot.
While trends among women have been stable, there have been big shifts among men. Males in well-paid full-time employment are now working slightly longer hours on average than two decades ago. Meanwhile, men in full-time employment at the bottom of the wage ladder are working much less.
On top of that, the number of low-paid men who work part-time has increased sharply. Twenty years ago, one in twenty men with low hourly wages worked part-time; today it is one in five. Analysis by the Institute for Fiscal Studies shows this phenomenon is only happening among the low-paid. In better-paying jobs, part-time men are still fairly rare. Gender roles within families might tend to be similar too. Low-paid men may be choosing to shoulder more childcare responsibilities so their partners can return to work.
Yet it is clear that the distribution of work will matter to people. Britain has both overemployment and underemployment problems: Official data show 3.4 million people in Britain want to work more hours while 3.2 million want to work few hours for less pay. The underemployed are likely to be waiters or cleaners. The overemployed are most likely to be doctors or chief executives. This indicates an economy where demand and supply of skills are out of sync.
Nobody knows for sure how the next wave of automation will shake up demand for different skills. Perhaps doctors will gain the free time they desire. Others might find themselves in greater demand. But short of some developing a much better system for training people quickly for the jobs economy needs, it seems likely that in the future -- as now -- there will be too much work for some, and too little for others.
32.What can be inferred from the first two paragraphs?
A. The development of robots will get rid of humans’ work.
B. Future leisure time will be allocated evenly across the workforce.
C. The U.K. has taken some measures to stop the decline of working hours.
D. The averages may not be the accurate indicators of the uneven distribution of working hours.
33.What can we learn from the analysis by the Institute for Fiscal Studies?
A. Low-paid men are to blame for the low employment.
B. More well-paid men are choosing to work part-time.
C. Part-time men have increased only among the low-paid.
D. Part-time men rarely shoulder childcare responsibilities.
34.What do the underlined words “out of syne” mean in Paragraph 5?
A. Important. B. Imbalanced C. Undoubted. D. Harmful.
35.What is the text mainly about?
A. The total amount of human labor will be decreased.
B. Better training systems will be built across the world.
C. Robots contribute to uneven distribution across the workforce.
D. The number of low-paid men who work part-time has increased.

I had lived with a couple of friends in a small apartment in London half a dozen years ago. One day we needed some tools to put up shelves and microphones for the party. We didn’t mean to buy the tools and rent them was expensive. Besides, it really got us annoyed was that we would also collectively create mountains of waste.
Inspiring by tool libraries in the USA and lending libraries in Berlin, we started a small Library of Things local. Up to now we have run five Library of Things site across London.

We are to take the entrance examination to university next June. In order to guarantee more study time for Senior Three students, our school has intended to cut down on one PE class per week to make time for math tests. However, I don’t think it is beneficial to us students.
As far as I am aware, taking exercise is of equal importance to Senior Three students. First of all, doing sports contributes to building up our strength, thus increasing our resistance. Moreover, we urgently need sports to help to enhance communication among students, avoiding some psychological problems. In addition, by taking part in physical exercise, our minds can get relaxed and refreshed.
In conclusion, I strongly suggest that our school should not reduce our PE class so as to promote our all-round development.
