A
My daughter Kelly is a cautious person. She needs to warm up to situations, is hesitant to try new things. When with close friends, she becomes a leader who laughs loudly and chants, “Girls rule, boys drool.” But when that comfort zone is not around her, she is shy and nervous.
This has been challenging for me at times. “Shy” is not a word that I think has ever been used to describe me. But this has been a year of firsts for my girl that has filled her with a new sense of confidence. This year she moved to lap lane in swimming where she was preparing for a swim team. This year she learned to ride a bike without training wheels. And this year she completed her first kids’ triathlon (三项全能) .
On Saturday, with a thunderstorm coming soon and my son’s birthday party later in the day, we all went out in the dark of the morning for Kelly to participate in her first triathlon. We practiced transitions from swim to bike to run with her, we got all the equipment she’d need, and we kept talking about the race. But as we waited the two hours for the older kids to finish before her turn, she held my leg a little harder and told me she loved me a few too many times. She was nervous but trying to keep it together.
And then it was her turn. From the second she jumped into the water, my heart soared. My daughter transformed into the most confident human being I had ever seen. She dominated(主宰) that swim, crushed that bike ride and ran to the finish with the biggest smile on her face.
I can honestly say that I never felt so proud of someone in my entire life. It wasn’t because she did a sport or anything like that. It was because she was afraid of something and conquered（克服） that fear with confidence and a fire I hadn’t seen before.
All day I would find myself just looking over at her and smiling. She might be wearing the finalist medal but I felt like I won that day. I won the chance to see my girl shine. Shine on, sweet baby.
21. Kelly is nervous when ________. A. she changes into a leader C. situations are new to her 22. We can know from Paragraph 3 ______.
A. the whole family gave Kelly support B. the race began in the early morning C. Kelly was eager for her turn in the race D. Kelly prepared for her brother’s birthday party
23. Seeing Kelly’s performance in the race, the author felt ______.
A. worried and hesitant
B. anxious and uneasy B. boys are around her D. she is away from her mom
C. curious and concerned D. excited and proud 24. The author “felt like I won that day” because Kelly ______. A. expressed love to her B. overcame the fear

In New York City public schools, 176 different languages are spoken among more than 1 million students. For 160,000 children, English is not their first language. New York's Department of Education makes learning better for these students by providing dual-language programs, in which students are taught in two languages, English and another one, like Russian or Chinese. Math, social studies, science and all other regular courses are taught in both languages. And they learn about the culture of the other country.
Milady Baez, Deputy Chancellor of English Language Learners and Student Support, says these dual-language programs will help children succeed in the future. \"The jobs of the future require that our students know more than one language. They are going to be traveling abroad; they are going to be communicating with people from all over the world. This will open doors for them.\"
Middle-schoolers might not have jobs on their minds yet. For Kequing Jaing, she likes keeping up her first language, Mandarin.\"It makes me feel that I am home because I can speak in Chinese, learn in Chinese, while learning in English. So it makes me feel better and makes me understand more about the task I'm learning.\"
Anastasia Hudikova came to the United States when she was 2 years old. She says the Russian-English program keeps her connected to her heritage and her parents happy.\"They're really happy about the program. They are really happy that I can preserve my culture and my language, and that I can speak it fluently in school.\"
The New York schools also offer dual-language programs in seven other languages: Arabic, French, Haitian Creole, Hebrew, Korean, Polish and Spanish. There are plans to add even more languages in the future.
While these dual-language programs are popular, some organizations in the U.S. say teaching English comes first. U.S. Studies show that children who learn English early will be more successful later. 25. Who may not quite agree with dual-language programs?
A. Milady Baez B. Kequing Jaing C. Anastasia Hudikova’s parents
D. some organizations in the U.S
26. Which one of the following is true according to the article?
A. Most students in New York public schools are not native English speakers. B. A dual-language program is carried out to help overcome the language barrier. C. The dual-language program contributes to preserving a foreign student’s own culture. D. Seven languages are adopted in the program at present. 27. The author writes the passage in order to_________. A. encourage us to learn more languages
B. introduce dual-language programs in New York schools

Does happiness have a scent?
When someone is happy, can you smell it?
You can usually tell when someone is happy based on seeing them smile, hearing them laugh or perhaps from receiving a big hug. But can you also smell their happiness? Surprising new research suggests that happiness does indeed have a scent, and that the experience of happiness can be transmitted through smell, reports Phys.org.
For the study, 12 young men were shown videos meant to bring about a variety of emotions while researchers gathered sweat samples from them. All of the men were healthy and none of them were drug users or smokers, and all were asked to abstain from drinking or eating smelly foods during the study period.
Those sweat samples were then given to 36 equally healthy young women to smell, while researchers monitored their reactions. Only women were selected to smell the samples, apparently because previous research has shown that women have a better sense of smell than men and are also more sensitive to emotional signaling—though it's unclear why only men were chosen to produce the scents.
Researchers found that the behavior of the women after smelling the scents—particularly their facial expressions—indicated a relationship between the emotional states of the men who produced the sweat and the women who sniffed them.
“Human sweat produced when a person is happy brings about a state similar to happiness in somebody who breathes this smell,” said study co-author Gun Semin, a professor at Koc University in Turkey.
This is a fascinating finding because it not only means that happiness does have a scent, but that the scent is capable of transmitting the emotion to others. The study also found that other emotions, such as fear, seem to carry a scent too. This ensures previous research suggesting that some negative emotions have a smell, but it is the first time this has proved to be true of positive feelings.
Researchers have yet to isolate(分离) exactly what the chemical compound for the happiness smell is, but you might imagine what the potential applications for such a finding could be. Happiness perfumes, for instance, could be invented. Scent therapies（香味疗法）could also be developed to help people through depression or anxiety.
Perhaps the most surprising result of the study, however, is our broadened understanding of how emotions get communicated, and also how our own emotions are potentially managed through our social context and the emotional states of those around us. 28. What is the main finding of the new research? A. Pleasant feelings can be smelt out. B. Negative emotions have a smell.

C. Men produce more sweats. D. Women have a better sense of smell.
29. The underlined part “abstain from” in Paragraph 3 probably means _________. A. try B. avoid
C. continue
D. practice
30. What is the application value of the new research? A. Perfumes could help people understand each other. B. Some smells could be created to improve our appearance. C. Perfumes could be produced to cure physical diseases. D. Some smells could be developed to better our mood. 31. We can learn from the last paragraph that . A. happiness comes from a scent of sweat B. social surroundings can influence our emotions C. people need more emotional communication D. positive energy can deepen understanding

Conventional wisdom is a major barrier to innovation that threatens the survival of companies everywhere. It’s based on the assumption that old ideas will always work, so they shouldn’t be challenged. While this may be a valid assumption in situations that don’t change, it’s unlikely to hold true in a changing situation. In today’s rapid changing global environment, old methods often don't work, and stubbornly using them can lead to major problems.
Most people seem to agree with conventional wisdom because it gives one a false sense of security. If everyone else believes it, then it must be true. Individuals who use conventional wisdom are certain that they are right, and being right is good. They want to continue using old ideas rather than take risks with changes that might not work. In 1977, Ken Olsen, co-founder and CEO of Digital Equipment Corporation (DEC), stated “There is no reason for any individual to have a computer in his home.” Despite being a dominant leader in the computer industry, DEC no longer exists.
People seem to forget that since innovation is a change, there can be no innovation without change. Unfortunately, conventional wisdom prevents leaders, followers and companies from changing and therefore innovating. If companies don’t innovate, but their competitors do, the future is likely to be problematic. Breaking from conventional wisdom has led to many of the most innovative companies and products in history across many industries, so it has a powerful effect on business success.
Ted Turner (founder of CNN) knew little, if anything, about the news business, but he knew it was inconvenient to watch news only at the dinner hour, as was common before CNN. Turner’s solution was to create a cable channel dedicated to news 24 hours a day. The news establishment reflected conventional wisdom at the time, and predicted his idea would fail because no one wanted to watch the news all day.

However, it doesn’t take a rocket scientist to understand that viewers don’t have to watch the news all day for the CNN to work. Viewers just have to watch when they want to get information. Due to conventional thinking, the critics failed to recognize the opportunity that was clear to Ted. They assumed that only what was familiar to them could work in the future.
Conventional wisdom prevents creativity, flexibility and risk-taking, so unconventional leaders enthusiastically break from it. To survive, thrive and maintain competitive advantage, companies must be flexible when reacting to change.
32. DEC has disappeared probably because ___________. A. the consumers didn’t like its products B. the leaders lacked the sense of security C. the CEO stuck to the conventional ideas D. the employees took many risks with changes
33. The founding of CNN is used as an example to prove _________. A. missing opportunities could lead to failure B. changing could contribute to business success C. watching news at the dinner hour is convenient D. conventional wisdom influences business success 34. What does the underlined part probably mean?
A. Rocket scientists can ensure the CNN works properly. B. Most of the viewers don’t like to watch the news at work. C. It’s easy to know people needn’t watch the news all the time. D. It’s necessary to understand when people watch the news. 35. The passage is mainly written to tell us that ______. A. old methods are changing with time B. opportunities lead to business success C. successful companies need wise leaders D. conventional wisdom limits innovation 第二节 (共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分)

Recently, Google’s AphaGo defeated Lee Sedol, the World Go Champion. The news has drawn many people’s attention and made AI a heated topic. People’s opinions towards AI are divided.
Some welcome the exciting progress and hold the belief that AI will surely benefit mankind in more fields for its intelligence will reach a level that no human being can ever achieve while some others fear that AI will eventually get out of control or even destroy mankind in the future for it will become something far superior than humans.
In my opinion, AI, like any technological progress made by humans in the past, is neither good nor evil. What we should do is try to hold an objective attitude towards its development and make good use of it.
