Figure 1: The climber has two routes she could take, one to the left and one to the right. The left one appears easier because it has a jug within easy reach, but look what ha

14、ppens if she chooses that direction. She gets stuck on the rock and has to go back down. Sometimes that is even more difficult than going up. Figure 2: The climber takes the one to the right this time. Using a foothold and placing her right hand in a crimp, she is able to lift herself up and locate

17、. a newspaper advertisement D. a sports magazineBThe 14-year-old, Amit Dodani, a talented speaker and persuasive debater at school, suffered as a child from a speech disorder.He began working with a speech therapist (理疗师) when he was 6 years old, but it was his decision to try out for debate team at

18、 the end of seventh grade that helped him most.“That experience changed my life,” he wrote after his team went on to nationals. “It gave me hope, and helped me see my own true potential.”Since he launched MynameMystory last year, the site has attracted national and even international attention. Amit

19、s mom said her sons website is meant to send a message that no one is alone in their experience, showing how people overcame their challenges and how others can, too.“The big thing that clicked in Amit was the belief that people are really needed (to help each other) in this country,” she said. “I w

20、asnt surprised he wanted to do this, because at such a young age he had this spirit in him.”In addition to the website, Amit also wanted to expand the idea of sharing stories. So he asked his friends and classmates to donate books to distribute to local hospitals. He hoped to collect perhaps 1,000,

21、but in just two weeks, he received more than 2,300 donations.“There was an absolute connection between the website and books,” Amit said. “But books are something that can really make a difference to someone who is in the hospital and cant go to school.”Amit said hes hoping to organize a large live

22、event for MynameMystory at the end of this year at Chaminade High School in West Hills. Those who shared their stories on the website will be invited to speak and encourage others to share their stories of overing challenges.“Were hoping for big things,” Amit said. “We have a lot of events planned o

26、. MynameMy story helps build up self-confidence.CScientists say we are all born with a talent for mathematics. Every time we scan the cafeteria for a table that will fit all of our friends, were exercising the ancient estimation center in our brain.Stanislas Dehaene was the first researcher to show

27、that this part of the brain exists. In 1989, he met Mr. N who had suffered a serious brain injury. Mr. N couldnt recognize the number 5, or add 2 and 2. But he still knew that there are “about 50 minutes” in an hour. Dehaene drew an important conclusion from his case: there must be two separate math

28、ematical areas in our brains. One area is responsible for the math we learn in school, and the other judges approximate amounts.So what does the brains estimation center do for us? Harvard University researcher Elizabeth Spelke has spent a lot of time posing math problems to preschoolers. When he as

29、ks 5-year-olds to solve a problem like 21+30, they cant do it. But he has also asked them questions such as, “Sarah has 21 candles and gets 30 more. John has 34 candles. Who has more candles?” It turns out preschoolers are great at solving questions like that. Before theyve learned how to do math wi

30、th numerals and symbols, their brains approximation centers are already hard at work.After we learn symbolic math, do we still have any use for our inborn math sense? Justin Halberda at Johns Hopkins University gave us an answer in his study. He challenged a group of 14-year-olds with an approximati

31、on test: The kids stared at a puter screen and saw groups of yellow and blue dots flash by, too quickly to count. Then they had to say whether there had been more blue dots or yellow dots. The researchers found that most were able to answer correctly when there were 25 yellow dots and 10 blue ones.

32、When the groups were closer in size, 11 yellow dots and 10 blue ones, fewer kids answered correctly.The big surprise in this study came when the researcher pared the kids approximation test scores to their scores on standardized math tests. He found that kids who did better on the flashing dot test

33、had better standardized test scores, and vice versa (反之亦然). It seems that, far from being irrelevant, your math sense might predict your ability at formal math.29. From the first two studies, we can learn that estimation center _.A. is divided into two separate mathematical areasB. can help figure o

34、ut numerals and symbols problemsC. functions independently in both kids and adults brainsD. works better when symbolic parts are injured or undergrown30. What most surprised Justin in the study of 14-year-olds?A. The variety of math abilities in different students.B. The link between technology skil

35、ls and estimation skills.C. The difficulty of the task as the number of dots increased.D. The connection between estimation skills and formal math ability.31. What could be the best title for the passage?A. Born with a Sense of MathB. Go beyond What You Can LearnC. Symbolic Math and Estimation MathD

36、. Our Brain一a Born MathematicianDThe possibility of self-driving robot cars has often seemed like a futurists dream, years away from materializing in the real world. Well, the future is apparently now. The California Department of Motor Vehicles began giving permits in April for panies to test truly

37、 self-driving cars on public roads. The state also cleared the way for panies to sell or rent out self-driving cars, and for panies to operate driverless taxi services. California, it should be noted, isnt leading the way here. panies have been testing their vehicles in cities across the country. It

38、s hard to predict when driverless cars will be everywhere on our roads. But however long it takes, the technology has the potential to change our transportation systems and our cities, for better or for worse, depending on how the transformation is regulated.While much of the debate so far has been

39、focused on the safety of driverless cars (and rightfully so), policymakers also should be talking about how self-driving vehicles can help reduce traffic jams, cut emissions (排放) and offer more convenient and affordable mobility options. The arrival of driverless vehicles is a chance to make sure th

40、at those vehicles are environmentally friendly and more shared.Do we want to copyor even worsenthe traffic of today with driverless cars? Imagine a future where most adults own individual self-driving vehicles. They tolerate long, slow journeys to and from work on packed highways because they can wo

41、rk, entertain themselves or sleep on the ride, which encourages urban spread. They take their driverless car to an appointment and set the empty vehicle to circle the building to avoid paying for parking. Instead of walking a few blocks to pick up a child or the dry cleaning, they send the self-driv

42、ing minibus. The convenience even leads fewer people to take public transportan unwele side effect researchers have already found in ride-hailing (叫车) services.A study from the University of California at Davis suggested that replacing petrol-powered private cars worldwide with electric, self-drivin

43、g and shared systems could reduce carbon emissions from transportation 80% and cut the cost of transportation infrastructure (基础设施) and operations 40% by 2050. Fewer emissions and cheaper travel sound pretty appealing. The first mercially available driverless cars will almost certainly be fielded by

44、 ride-hailing services, considering the cost of self-driving technology as well as liability and maintenance issues (责任与维护问题). But driverless car ownership could increase as the prices drop and more people bee fortable with the technology.Policymakers should start thinking now about how to make sure

45、 the appearance of driverless vehicles doesnt extend the worst aspects of the car-controlled transportation system we have today. The ing technological advancement presents a chance for cities and states to develop transportation systems designed to move more people，and more affordably. The car of t

46、he future is ing. We just have to plan for it.32. According to the author, attention should be paid to how driverless cars can _.A. provide better services to customersB. help deal with transportation-related problemsC. cause damage to our environmentD. make some people lose jobs33.

Positive.第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10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。选项中有两项为多余选项。Why Do We Get Angry？ Anger seems simple when we are feeling it, but the causes of anger are various. Knowing these causes can make us examine our behavior, and correct bad habits. The main rea

49、sons we get angry are triggering (触发) events, personality traits (特征), and our assessment of situations. 36 Triggering events for anger are so many that to describe them all would take hundreds of pages. However, here are some examples: being cut off in traffic, a deadline approaching, experiencing

50、physical pain, and much more. 37 The reason why someone is triggered by something and others are not is often due to ones personal history and psychological traits.Each person, no matter who they are, has psychological imbalances. People who have personality traits that connect with petitiveness and

51、 low upset tolerance are much more likely to get angry. 38 Also, sometimes pre-anger does not have to do with a lasting condition, but rather a temporary state before a triggering event has occurred. 39 Sometimes even routine occurrences bee sources of pre-anger, or anger itself. Sometimes ignorance

52、 and negative (消极的) outlooks on situations can create anger. 40 However, anger can easily turn violent, and it is best to know the reasons for anger to appear in order to prevent its presence. With these main reasons in mind, we can evaluate our level of anger throughout the day and prevent cases of

53、 outbursts by prehending the reasons for our feelings.A. Our attitude and viewpoint on situations can create anger within us as well.B. But some types of situations can help us to get rid of the occurrence of anger.C. Anger is rarely looked upon as a beneficial character trait, and is usually advise

54、d to reduce it.D. Anger is a particularly strong feeling and maybe people think that they have reasons to feel angry.E. Having these personality traits implies the pre-anger state, where anger is in the background of your mind.F. Understanding these reasons will control our own anger if we are willi

55、ng to evaluate ourselves with a critical eye.G. Not everyone acts the same in response to events, and that is why what triggers one person may or may not trigger another.第三部分英语知识运用（共两节，满分45分）第一节完形填空（共20小题；每小题1.5分，满分30分）阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D），选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。I felt greatly puzzled a

56、s Helen opened the gift from her best friend Cherry. “I.I thought you could use it for something.” Cherrys explanation did nothing to help us understand why a dark blue 41 made of remnants （边角料） was presented as a birthday gift.
