Java’s Cafe is a fundamental extension of the Rochester experience, opening its arms to comfort coffee, tea, and dessert lovers alike. For the typical UR students, the Java’s on Gibbs St. has become a place of solace during stressful testing times, and on more heartwarming occasions, a social hub.
Slowly approaching its thirties, Java’s has enjoyed a good reputation in its local. In 1978, Java Joe created a coffee farm in Hawaii. With great dedication to his craft, the great master of coffee beans made his way to Rochester then. In 1992, Joe decided to start selling coffee at the Public Market and opened up a store on Gibbs St. with the help of Michael Calabrese. This location, next to the Eastman School of Music, is the first of many shops Java Joe opened. As a lover of the blues, Joe enthusiastically decorated this flagship store with artistic and musical influence.
After Gibbs location, Joe planted Java Joe’s where he was first starting out—in the Public Market. Later, Java Joe’s moved to a nearby building, and received a name change—Java’s at the Market Coffee Roasters. This building served as a place where those who visited would often catch a glimpse of Joe skillfully roasting his coffee beans in the dancing flames and cultivating his drinks with care. However, in 1997 he licensed “Java Joe’s” to Calabrese, who then renamed the Gibbs Cafe to what we know today-Java’s Cafe.
Joe remained in the Public Market location until he was diagnosed with a brain tumor. Joe died of lung cancer at 68. The influence he had poured into his business is well-known and highly regarded. He has won many awards in his life.
The next time you head down to(Gibbs St. for your morning cup, keep in mind the extraordinary story of how that cup came to be, all thanks to Java Joe.
4. What is true about Java’s Cafe on Gibbs St.?
A. The name of the shop keeps unchanged up to now.
B. It was popular with the locals and students as well.
C. Java Joe had the ownership of the shop in 1997.
D. It is the flagship store and has won several awards.
5. What is special about Java’s at the Market Coffee Roasters?
A. Joe’s specially-made coffee beans.
B. Its super-quality coffee and service.
C. Joe’s demonstration of coffee-making skills.
D. Its attraction to the music school students.
6. What is the text mainly about?
A. The popularity of Java’s Cafe. B. The development of the coffee industry.
C. The contribution Joe made to Rochester. D. The founder and development of Java’s Cafe.

Early fifth-century philosopher St．Augustine famously wrote that he knew what time was unless someone asked him．Albert Einstein added another wrinkle when he theorized that time varies depending on where you measure it．Today's state-of-the-art atomic（原子的） clocks have proven Einstein right．Even advanced physics can't decisively tell us what time is, because the answer depends on the question you're asking．
Forget about time as an absolute．What if，instead of considering time in terms of astronomy,we related time to ecology？What if we allowed environmental conditions to set the tempo（节奏） of human life？We're increasingly aware of the fact that we can't control Earth systems with engineering alone，and realizing that we need to moderate（调节）our actions if we hope to live in balance．What if our definition of time reflected that？
Recently，I conceptualized a new approach to timekeeping that's connected to circumstances on our planet，conditions that might change as a result of global warming．We're now building a clock at the Anchorage Museum that reflects the total flow of several major Alaskan rivers，which are sensitive to local and global environmental changes．We've programmed it to match an atomic clock if the waterways continue to flow at their present rate．If the rivers run faster in the future on average，the clock will get ahead of standard time．If they run slower，you'll see the opposite effect．
The clock registers both short-term irregularities and long-term trends in river dynamics．It's a sort of observatory that reveals how the rivers are behaving from their own temporal frame（时间框架），and allows us to witness those changes on our smartwatches or phones．Anyone who opts to go on Alaska Mean River Time will live in harmony with the planet．Anyone who considers river time in relation to atomic time will encounter a major imbalance and may be motivated to counteract it by consuming less fuel or supporting greener policies．
Even if this method of timekeeping is novel in its particulars，early agricultural societies also connected time to natural phenomena．In pre-Classical Greece，for instance，people“corrected”official calendars by shifting dates forward or backward to reflect the change of season．Temporal connection to the environment was vital to their survival．Likewise，river time and other timekeeping systems we're developing may encourage environmental awareness．
When St．Augustine admitted his inability to define time， he highlighted one of time 's most noticeable qualities：Time becomes meaningful only in a defined context．Any timekeeping system is valid，and each is as praiseworthy as its purpose．
7. What is the main idea of Paragraph 1？
A. Timekeeping is increasingly related to nature．
B. Everyone can define time on their own terms．
C. The qualities of time vary with how you measure it．
D. Time is a major concern of philosophers and scientists．
8. The author raises three questions in Paragraph 2 mainly to________．
A. present an assumption B. evaluate an argument
C highlight an experiment D. introduce an approach
9. What can we learn from this passage？
A. Those who do not go on river time will live an imbalanced life．
B. New ways of measuring time can help to control Earth systems．
C. Atomic time will get ahead of river time if the rivers run slower．
D. Modern technology may help to shape the rivers’ temporal frame．
10. What can we infer from this passage？
A. It is crucial to improve the definition of time．
B. A fixed frame will make time meaningless．
C. We should live in harmony with nature．
D. History is a mirror reflecting reality．
D
Technology is supposed to make our lives easier, allowing us to do things more quickly and efficiently. But too often it seems to make things harder. This increase in complexity, often called "feature creep," costs consumers time, but it also costs business money. Product returns in the U.S. cost a hundred billion dollars a year, and a recent study by Elke den Ouden, of Philips Electronics, found that at least half of returned products have nothing wrong with them. Consumers just couldn't figure out how to use them. Companies now know a great deal about problems of usability and consumer behavior, so why is it that feature creep proves unstoppable?
In part, fieature creep is the product of the so-called internal-audience problem: the people who design and sell product are not the ones who buy and use them, and what engineers and marketers think is important is not necessarily what's best for consumers. The engineers tend not to notice when more options make a product less usable. And marketing and sales departments see each additional feature as a new selling point, and a new way to attract customers.
You might think, then, that companies could avoid fieature creep by just paying attention to what customers really want. But that's where the trouble begins, because although consumers find overloaded gadgets（ 配件）unmanageable, they also find them attractive. It turns out that when we look at a new product in a store we tend to think that the more features there are, the better. It is only once we get the product home and try to use it that we realize the virtues of simplicity.
It seems strange that we don't expect feature tiredness and thus avoid it. But, as numerous studies have shown, people are not, in general, good at predicting what will make them happy in the future. As a result, we will pay more for more features because we systematically overestimate how often we'll use them. We also overestimate our ability to figure out how a complicated product works.
The fact that buyers want bells and whistles but users want something clear and simple creates an unusual problem for companies. A product that doesn't have enough features may fail to catch our eye in the store. But a product with too many features is likely to annoy consumers.
11. What does the first paragraph mainly discuss?
A. The benefits brought by the advanced technology.
B. The recent study conducted by Elke den Ouden.
C. The loss caused by the feature creep of technology.
D. Many problems of usability known by the consumers.
12. Which of the following is true according to the second paragraph?
A. It is the audience problem that leads to feature creep.
B. What matters to designers and marketers is not good for consumers.
C. Feature creep brings blessings to the people in marketing and sales.
D. The engineers will not pay attention to the quality of the product
13. What do we know about the buyers in paragraph 4?
A. They are deeply convinced that all the products work in simple way.
B. They are fed up with the more and more features of the products.
C. They are too confident of their ability to use the complicated products.
D. They are quite clear about the products which will make them happy.
14 What can be a suitable title for the text?
A. Saying No to Feature Creep is No Easy Thing
B. Feature-heavy Products in Demand
C. The More Features, the Better
D. Simplicity Outweighs Complexity
第二节(共5小题;每小题2.5分，满分12.5分)
根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。
You may be concerned about how to clear clutter (杂乱的东西) from your bedroom and basement. ____15____ As May planting season is drawing near, turn your attention towards what can help your garden grow.
Define “weeds” for yourself.
I have always defined weeds as “unwanted plants”. Some, like clover (三叶草),have positive characteristics like enriching the soil. Others, like dandelion greens, can be eaten. So one gardener's weeds might be another gardener's dinner! Decide what you truly value. ____16____
Enjoy the weeding process.
Weed removal is a never-ending process. Try to treat the activity in a positive way. You can casually pull weeds as you spot them when walking by your gardens. ____17____ Whatever attention you are able to give to your weeds is OK — even though you'll never feel quite “finished”, remind yourself that every weed pulled means progress.
____18____
After months of being absorbed in colorful garden catalogue, I often hit the nursery (苗圃) in May, filled with inspiration and adventure. “This year,” I say, “I'll try everything!” But time has taught me that this wild ambition can work against me. If I choose too many plants to experiment with, my plantings will crowd each other out. Try making a map of your garden before you head to the garden center, using the recommended spacing to guide your design.
Reassess your garden tool collection.
Just like indoor clutter, garden clutter can result from having too many tools. Some tools are necessary for every gardener. ____19____ They can build up and collect dust or dirt. So go through your tools and decide which tools don't work for you and which are your forever garden companions.
A. Make a clear garden plan.
B. Sort out your garden tools.
C. But what about clutter in your garden?
D. And then pull the rest, without hesitation.
E. Weeds can crowd out your intentional plantings.
F. But too many of them can also cause trouble to you.
G. Or you can set aside time to go all out for weed removal.

Worse still, I was ____26____ to convince myself that “Yeah, that’s OK.”
Spring semester came. A friend of mine ____27____ me one day asking if I wanted to go to Zumba with her. All I knew about Zumba was that it was basically exercise dancing to Latin and pop songs. It didn’t sound too bad, but I couldn’t be ____28____.
I went, and that was it. Zumba became my ____29____ of tea. The instructor would always say: “Don’t worry about the steps. Have fun. Do your own thing.” That removed my ____30____ about sports.

Jean. “Jean, this is Tom,” he said. “I want you to make a telephone call to my office. Ask to speak to Mr. Bates. Tell him you are speaking from a doctor’s office.

At one o’clock, Mr. Bates came up to him. “I have had bad news for you, Tom.” he said. “Your mother is ill. The doctor telephoned. You must go to her.” “Thank you,” Tom said. “I’ll go now. I’ll come back as soon as I can.” He left the office quickly for the football ground. The big match did not start until three but the ground was nearly full. But Tom’s ticket was a good one. He could stand near the front. The football match was very good. Many people saw the match on TV. People at home could see everything in the football ground.

【答案】Dear Tom,
I’m more than delighted to tell you that to promote traditional opera in schools, the city theatre will provide an opera for us students to watch for free. Knowing that you are interested in Peking Opera, I’m writing to invite you to watch it with me.
The traditional opera called Farewell My Concubine will be performed at the hall of the city theatre at 7 p.m. on December 20th. Meanwhile, some famous Peking Opera performers coming from Beijing will join in the performance, which will surely make the audience excited. I’m certain that not only will it be a real feast but can help you have a better understanding of Peking Opera. It is such a good opportunity that you shall never miss it.
I would be more than pleased if you could accept my invitation and come.
Yours,
Li Hua

【46题答案】
【答案】The next morning, when Tom walked into the office, Mr. Bates came up to him. Confident that no one knew his little trick, Tom greeted Mr. Bates as usual. “How is your mother?” Mr. Bates asked. There was something awful in his voice, but Tom try to keep calm. “Oh, she is a little better. Thank you.” Tom said, trying to hide his anxiety. “Go home.” Mr. Bates said, “Don’t come to this office again. Hearing the words, Tom was confused, unable to figure out why. Without saying anything, Mr. Bates pointed to the wall behind him.
Turning around, Tom saw a new television on the wall. “You had a very good ticket, didn’t you? You were right in front of all the people, weren’t you?” asked Mr. Bates, coldly. His words sent a chill down Tom’s spine. It suddenly dawned on him that Mr. Bates had brought this television in yesterday afternoon so that everyone could see the big match in the office. Thanks to the very good ticket, everyone could see him on TV. Feeling regretful and ashamed, Tom finally understood the old saying: Honesty is always the best policy.
