This week, I had the honor of visiting with a music therapist(治疗师), Geogia, from Seasons Hospice(临终关怀) in Columbia, MD. I was deeply moved by the connection and spirituality that I witnessed during my visit. As a profession who plays a musical instrument, I believe in the power of music to go beyond words and connect people.
I have been disabused of any ides that music therapy is simply about playing a guitar. In the hands of a skilled music therapist like Seasons’ Georgia, the guitar and voice are spiritual and deeply connected tools that can be extremely meaningful to a patient that is in pain, or family that is in need of healing.
Georgia, her colleague Sophie and I visited two patients at one of Seasons’ inpatient units. One, Ms. Anne, requested Johnny Cash songs initially. I sang along with her to “I Walk the Line”. We then learned from her nephew that she led a church chorus for 50 years. As Georgia played the guitar, Ms. Anne said that she was ready to go, ready to relieve the burden on her family.
Ms. Anne’s second song request was “My Hope is Built on Nothing Less.” I hadn’t heard this song before, but I was so moved to see and hear Georgia and Ms. Smith harmonize beautifully, with Ms. Anne repeating the last line—“All other ground is sinking sand”—twice. Ms. Anne sang these lines with a certainly and unshakable belief. We all knew, somehow, that Ms. Anne would soon die. As I leaned in to speak with Ms. Anne, she asked me why I didn’t sing with her. I told her that I didn’t want to mess up her beautiful two part harmony. She smiled, as if she knew that I didn’t really know the words. Two hours later, Ms. Anne died.
24. What is probably the author?
A. A patient. B. A musician. C. A physician. D. A nurse.
25. What does the author think of music therapists?
A. They compose songs to cheer patients up.
B. They are groups of people who play guitars.
C. They provide peace to patients at the end of life.
D. They have the right to visit any hospital freely.
26. What can you infer about Ms. Anne from the text?
A. She was an expert in singing. B. She was a relative of Georgia.
C. She was a burden of her family. D. She was easily moved by others’ visit.
27. Why did the author fail to sing the second song with Ms. Anne?
A. He was too sick to sing a word. B. He didn’t really know the song.
C. He lacked harmony with others. D. He made no request for the song.

C
Scientists have shown that humans appear to have an ability to understand the sighs of apes. The result is a little surprising, since most people haven’t spent much time at all with apes.
Humans use words to talk to each other. But we also point, nod, and use our hands to show what we mean. We’ve been doing this for tens of thousands of years. Apes have their own system of gestures (special movements or signs) to show what they mean. They use about 80 different gestures to show what they mean. For example, a gesture the researchers call “big loud scratch” means “help pick insects off me”.
Scientists have studied how apes use gestures. But until now, no one has studied whether humans can understand the gestures of apes. Researchers Kirsty Graham and Catherine Hobaiter at the University of St. Andrews decided to verify this idea. They wanted to see if humans with no training or experience could understand the gestures of apes.
The researchers created a game for people to play online. The game was simple. People watched short videos of apes making a gesture. Then they had to choose the correct meaning of the gesture out of four possible answers.
For the videos, the researchers chose 10 of the most common gestures used by apes. Thousands of people played the game. They were surprised to find that people were able to choose the correct meaning of the gestures over 50% of the time. That’s twice as good as people would be expected to do by chance.
For some of the gestures, people were able to choose the correct meaning about 80% of the time. One example of this was the gesture of wiping the mouth, which people correctly guessed meant “give me that food”. The scientists believe that humans may have a natural ability to understand the gestures of apes. But it’s not clear why.
28. What does the underlined word “verify” in paragraph 3 probably mean?
A. Quit. B. Believe. C. Trail. D. Admit.
29. How do researchers show whether humans could understand the gestures of apes?
A. By using an online game. B. By interacting with apes.
C. By watching short video. C. By studying apes’ habits.
30. What gesture will apes use to show “give me that food”?
A. Big loud scratch. B. Wiping the mouth.
C. Reaching the hand. D. Biting the lips.
31. What’s the main idea of the text?
A. Apes have their own system of gestures.
B. Humans make the same gestures as apes.
C. Different gestures show different meanings.
D. Humans can understand signals used by apes.

D
There are dozens of action and horror films, all focusing on artificial intelligence and what happens when robots take over. While this makes for great entertainment, some people take this idea to heart and are terrified of robots taking over their work. This slight panic by some mirrors what we know from history; when electricity was discovered and mass produced, everyone worried about candlestick makers. When cars became popular, carriage makers were worried they would be out in the cold.
Technology advancements do sometimes mean that certain jobs become less needed over time, but that doesn’t mean entire industries are just out of luck. In fact, research shows that automation doesn’t reduce the number of jobs available, and it can even add more jobs to the workforce.
Many of these jobs are in the information technology industries. If you’re considering going into IT, now is an ideal time to get the education you need to pursue that career. AI and tech advantages are only going to keep moving forward. As new technology is created, more jobs are needed. Having an IT degree will mean you’re ready to be part of these advancements and can feel secure in your future.
Currently many of these new exciting AI advancements haven’t trickled(流) into everyday life. For example, self-driving cars are an exciting and developing technology, but you can’t buy one and likely won’t be able to anything soon. If being involved in these current developments sounds exciting to you, it could be the perfect time to get an IT degree and move into a field where you’d be on the cusp(尖端) of all the technology advances ahead.
With new technology, some jobs eventually do become less necessary (there aren’t many carriage makers today). But change is the only constant in the world. And ultimately, technology advancements of the past and present are hugely beneficial for society.
32. What does the author intend to do in paragraph 1?
A. Remind readers of the history. B. Introduce the topic of the text.
C. Express ideas about honor films. D. Show the development of robots.
33. What does the author suggest you do for the security of your future?
A. Master IT technology skills. B. Enter automation industries.
C. Get involved in film making. D. Change your jobs frequently.
34. What can we learn from the last two paragraphs?
A. AI advancements have entered everyone’s life.
B. Technology progress does good to us humans.
C. More jobs will be accessible to ordinary workers.
D. The most exciting job is to make self-driving cars.
35. What is the best title of the text?
A. What jobs are available? B. Are self-driving cars safe?
C. Will robots take my job? D. Why have robots invented?

第二节（满分25分）
阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。
She jumped off my daughter’s arms and moved unsteadily across to me, waiting for me to pick her up. For the next three hours, she slept peacefully, while I sat on the floor – not daring to move, for fear that I woke her up. And, it was from that moment that Lizzy – our Cavalier King Charles, all of 8 weeks, took over my life.
Over the next six months, I learnt how to be a new mum again – this time to a non-verbal, four-legged child – cleaning poos and pees, cooking special meals, reading her every need and want, checking her breathing every hour, while she took over the household – and our hearts. She left her mark on every bit of furniture – chewing the edges of beds, tables, chairs and leather couches. Socks went missing and were found days later among the flower beds; expensive shoes were chewed on with meticulous(缜密的) precision—never to be worn again.
Like most eager parents, I wanted my child to shine and took her to every possible socializing class. Every weekend, as the clock struck 9 o’clock, I was at the dog park where instructors taught other dogs how to walk on leads, listen to commands, jump through hoops and hurdles, and socialize with their hairy friends. Week after week, I watched in disappointment as Lizzy came last in every single exercise. Every week, the instructors comforted me that she would improve, but to no avail. While other dogs learnt new tricks, Lizzy chased birds and rolled in the mud. After six months I gave up, convinced Lizzy was bound for better things in life, and 10 years later I’m still waiting.
But not all was lost. Lizzy understands English, Bengali and Hindi with equal ease. Her head cocks(翘起) and ears perk up at the mere mention of the words ‘walk’, ‘drive’ and ‘food’.
注意：1. 续写词数应为150左右；
2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
For me, Lizzy’s the perfect child unlike my other two-legged girls.

Of course, this perfect child has shortcomings.

For me, Lizzy’s the perfect child unlike my other two-legged girls. She has no arguing, no disturbing, no anger and most importantly no answering back. She understands my every mood and will snuggle up to me when I’m unwell or sad. And, when I come back at 6 pm every evening, she’s at the window waiting for me to drive into the driveway. I promise, I did not teach her to do it!
Of course, this perfect child has shortcomings. Lizzy doesn’t believe in hugs or kisses and she’ll sell her soul for food. She’ll get angry if she can’t go for a walk or for a drive and envy other dogs if her mum pays them ant attention. She needs her bed at 10:35 pm sharp, which isn’t a problem, except that it’s my pillow that she’s claimed as her own. Other than that, Lizzy’s just perfect.
