15、 remember the afternoon when we climbed the mountain as if it were yesterday.It was a sunny day. Eager to spend some time outside, I went up the mountain with my uncle. The mountain was hard (21) _(climb) and had tough rocks and streams on it. In the end, (22) _ (exhaust) and hot, I couldnt go any f
16、urther. So we went back down the mountain in the end. On the way back down, my uncle asked me a question, (23) _ left me speechless for a second: “Whats your dream, young lady?”“I have no idea,” I answered (24) _thinking it for a while. Then he smiled and told me about his story. He didnt perform we
17、ll at school when he was a student. Although nobody thought he could succeed, he knew clearly (25) _his dream was-to be a businessman. “I knew I wasnt gifted when it came to studying, so I tried to buy snacks from a market and sell them after class,” he told me. After he left school, he started sell
18、ing different items to find out which one was most attractive to customers. Of course, he often had no money in his pocket, but (26) _ tough life was, he never gave up.“There is no doubt that a person who puts in a great deal of effort to reach his or her goal will have good luck at some point. The
19、meaning of life is to chase your dream,” he said gently.That night I (27) _ hardly fall asleep. I lay in bed tossing and turning, asking myself, “Whats my motivation?” I once wanted to be a top student, but the hard work needed meant (28) _ (put) everything into following my passion. If I find mysel
20、f lacking willpower, what should I do? Leaving home early the next morning, I climbed the mountain again by (29) _. It made me think: If we dont experience the climb, how can we get to see the scenery on the top of the mountain? In the end, I reached the top and (30) _ (fascinate) by the warm breeze
21、 and sunshine. Nothing could be more pleasant than that.Section B Directions: Fill in each blank with a proper word chosen from the box. Each word can be use only once. Note that there is one word more than you need. A. quickly B. analyze C. programmed D. adoption E. boredom F. unaccompanied G. dram
22、atic H. transform I. distracted J. peacefully K. prospectImagine an urban neighborhood where most of the cars are self-driving. What would it be like to be a pedestrian?Actually, pretty good. In fact, pedestrians might end up with the run of the place.In a new study published in the Journal of Plann
23、ing Education and Research, Millard-Ball looks at the _31_ of urban areas where a majority of vehicles are “autonomous” or self-driving. Its a phenomenon thats not as far off as one might think.“Autonomous vehicles have the potential to _32_ travel behavior,” Millard-Ball says. He uses game theory t
24、o _33_ the interactions between pedestrians and self-driving vehicles, with a focus on yielding at crosswalks.Because autonomous vehicles are by design risk-averse, Millard-Balls model suggests that pedestrians will be able to act with impunity, and he thinks autonomous vehicles may facilitate a shi
25、ft towards pedestrian-oriented urban neighborhoods. However, Millard-Ball also finds that the _34_ of autonomous vehicles may be hampered by their strategic disadvantage that slows them down in urban traffic.“Pedestrians routinely play the game of chicken,” Millard-Ball writes. Crossing the street,
26、even at a marked crosswalk without a traffic signal, requires a probability calculation: what are the odds of survival?The benefit of crossing the street _35_, instead of waiting for a gap in traffic, is traded off against the probability of injury or even death. Pedestrians know that drivers are no
27、t interested in running them down - usually. But there is the chance a driver may be _36_, or drunk.Self-driving cars are _37_ to obey the rules of the road, including waiting for pedestrians to cross. They could provide the most _38_ transformation in urban transportation systems. Parking, street d
28、esign, and transportation service networks are likely to be revolutionized. In his latest study, Millard-Ball suggests that the potential benefits of self-driving cars - avoiding _39_ of traffic and traffic accidents - may be outweighed by the drawbacks of an always play-it-safe vehicle that slows t
29、raffic for everybody.“From the point of view of a passenger in an automated car, it would be like driving down a street filled with _40_ five-year-old children,” Millard-Ball writes.Alternatively, planners could seize the opportunity to create more pedestrian-oriented streets. Autonomous vehicles co
30、uld start a new era of pedestrian domination.III. Reading Comprehension (45%)Section ADirections: For each blank in the following passage there are four words or phrases marked A, B,C and D. Fill in each blank with the word or phrase that best fits the context.Everybody loves to hate invasive specie
31、s. The international list of invasive speciesdefined as those that were introduced by humans to new places, and then _41_ runs to over 4,000. In Australia and New Zealand hot war is fought against introduced creatures like cane toads (蔗蟾蜍) and rats. Some things that are uncontroversial (无争议的) are nonetheless foolish. With a few important exceptions, campaigns to _42_ invasive species are merely a waste of money and effort for reasons that are partly practical and partly philosophical. Start with the practical arguments. Most invasive species are neither terri
