【題目】 It has been two months since I moved to China, but its digital advancement hasn’t stopped impressing me ever since. One of the major things that I cannot imagine living without anymore is mobile payment. There are two major mobile payment apps here, Alipay and Wechat Pay. Both have similar payment features, though Wechat is more like a social media. That’s why I will focus on this “super app”.

So far, I’ve been overwhelmed by how convenient life can be with Wechat. It is present in every aspect of people’s daily life, from paying water and electricity bills, meals, cinema tickets to hailing a taxi, following news, and chatting with friends. Most merchants have adopted it, from tiny local street food stalls to high-end stores. A cashier may be surprised if you do not pay with Wechat or Alipay at the grocers or in restaurants. And it seems like the entire payment industry has encouraged this shift to mobile payment, equipping payment terminals (終端) with QR code scanners to simplify payments. Mobile payments are so common here that I realize that I can perfectly survive if I forget my wallet at home one day because most days I just don’t take it out of my bag!

As mentioned earlier, Wechat is also a major social media platform with about one billion daily users, which is more than the entire population of the European Union. So I have to say Chinese technological and digital development is a real miracle.

【1】What does the underlined word mean in Paragragh 2?

A.encouraged.B.shocked.

C.confused.D.panicked.

【2】What can we learn from the passage?

A.Wechat is more a social media than Alipay.

B.All merchants have adopted mobile payment.

C.A cashier may be surprised if you pay with Wechat or Alipay.

D.It causes trouble if you don’t take your wallet with you.

【3】The best title of the passage might be ________.

A.The Different Pinions About Mobile Payment

B.The Development of Mobile Payment

C.The Popularity of Chinese Mobile Payment

D.Two Major Apps of Mobile Payment

【答案】

【1】B

【2】A

【3】C

【題目】 An abandoned car in Chicago worth about $600 has been issued more than $100, 000 in parking tickets (罰單) over the past three years. Now Jennifer Fitzgerald, 31, is stuck with the bill but says the 1999 Chevy Monte Carlo actually belongs to an ex-boyfriend who registered (登記注冊) the car in her name without informing her.

The Expired Meter ( 停車計時器) reports that from May 23, 2009 to April 30, 2012, the Chicago Department of Finance (DOF) issued 678 tickets against the car, totaling $105, 761.80. It set a Chicago record both for the total number and amount of parking fines issued. In fact, it blew past the previous record holder, which was $65,000 from about 400 tickets.

But Fitzgerald says she doesn’t owe the city a dime (10 分硬幣) and has filed a lawsuit (訴訟 ) in Cook County Circuit Court against the city of Chicago, United Airlines and the ex-boyfriend. Fitzgerald has two main arguments in her case. First, she says her ex-boyfriend, Brandon Preveau, is the actual owner of the car, having bought it from her uncle for $600 in 2008. In fact, Brandon paid for the car’s title (所有權(quán)), registration and insurance, but it was registered in Fitzgerald’s name. “Brandon used his 2007 income tax refund ( 退 款 ) to pay Patrick $600 for the car,” reads Fitzgerald’s complaint. “For reasons not recalled by Patrick, however, Patrick signed the title to the car over to Fitzgerald.”

Second, Fitzgerald’s lawyer is arguing that the city should have simply towed (拖走) the car after 30 days from O’Hare Airport, where it was parked and where Brandon worked at the time. According to Fitzgerald’s complaint, on or before November 17, 2009, Brandon drove the car into the parking lot and never drove it out again. And as the Expired Meter reports, Chicago law does state exactly that an abandoned vehicle is to be towed 30 days after being illegally parked.

【1】After the Chicago Department of Finance noticed the car, it _______.

A.wanted to break a record

B.tried its best to find its owner

C.kept issuing tickets against the car

D.decided to play a joke on its owner

【2】From Paragraph 3, we know that Jennifer Fitzgerald _______.

A.sold the car to her ex-boyfriend long ago

B.received the car from her ex-boyfriend

C.didn’t know anything about the car

D.wasn’t the real owner of the car

【3】Jennifer Fitzgerald filed a lawsuit against the city of Chicago because the city _______.

A.didn’t inform her as soon as it found the missing car

B.didn’t tow the vehicle after 30 days from O’Hare Airport

C.didn’t state exactly that an abandoned vehicle was to be towed

D.didn’t help her find the car when it was missing in the beginning

【4】After reading the passage we learn that Jennifer Fitzgerald _______.

A.doesn’t want to pay any money

B.thinks Patrick should pay the fines

C.isn’t trying to find her ex-boyfriend

D.has never been to O’Hare Airport

【題目】 Long plane trips can be tiring. Luckily, there are things you can do both during and after a long flight that can help reduce (減輕) your discomfort.

During the flight

【1】 Boredom gives you the chance to pay attention to your discomfort. Instead, help pass the time by watching a movie, reading a book, writing a letter, walking up and down the aisle (過道), or listening to music.

Drink a lot and eat just a little. The longer the flight, the more the air dries out. 【2】 Stay away from wine and coffee because they can make you lose more water. Eat lightly.

Make yourself comfortable. Wear loose-fitting clothing and sit comfortably. 【3】 Avoid crossing your legs, and get any hard subjects out of your back pockets.

Get a good seat. Request a seat over the wing or the wheels. 【4】 Sitting in an aisle seat will make it easier for you to get up from your seat and will give you more legroom.

Sleep. If possible, sleep during night flights, and just take a very short sleep on day flights.

After arrival

There is no useful way to deal with jet lag (時差綜合癥). 【5】 For example, you can reset your watch when you take off, and you can eat and sleep at the local time right away.

A.Keep busy.

B.Avoid ear pain.

C.However, environmental treatment may help.

D.This is where you will hardly feel the moving or shaking.

E.Proper sitting helps reduce aches, pains and back soreness.

F.Drinking about one glass of water each hour can reduce this dryness.

G.Reduce ear pressure during takeoff and landing by having hard candy.

【題目】 Archeology （考古學(xué)）isn't the dusty science it was a generation ago. New technologies that once seemed out of sci-fi are now locating buried traces of buildings and revealing the ruins of cities.

For more than a decade, Sarah Parcak and her team have been on the front line of this revolution. They use satellite images to find and explore ancient sites around the globe. Now they're about to take on a new challenge as they focus Global Xplorer citizen-science project on India.

In 2017, Parcak launched an online platform, called Global Xplorer, to crowd source （群眾外包）the initial assessment of satellite images for signs of cultures from long ago. Anyone in the world with a computer and Internet access could help discover and protect remains of Peru's rich cultural heritage. The results have been surprising. About 80,000 participants from a hundred countries have identified 19,000 sites that were not in Peru's database. The platform for Peru is still running.

If all goes well, the work in India could last for years. "India has had relatively little archaeological work done," Parcak says. Also, the full extent of India's archaeological work has never been mapped completely. Parcak expects her project to make up that. “Wherever we end up going, the crowd's going to be able to see extraordinary things," Parcak says.

Thirty six India's cultural heritage relics are already listed as UNESCO World Heritage Sites. Parcak thinks there could be tens of thousands of as yet unknown sites mapped as part of this project. The discoveries promise to be amazing across the land that has seen a parade of cultures come and go.

In the future, she hopes other countries will contact her to launch their own satellite surveys. The possibilities are huge. Parcak estimates that there are at least 12 million potential archaeological sites yet to be discovered. That means the sky is the limit for her project now that it has gotten off the ground successfully.

【1】What's the purpose of Parcak's project?

A.To interview citizens via the Internet.

B.To dig out more remains of ancient cities.

C.To build databases for unknown cultural heritage.

D.To identify unknown ancient sites through joint efforts.

【2】What do we know about the participants in Peru project?

A.They are Internet-equipped volunteers.

B.They are well-trained voluntary scholars.

C.They are mostly fans of archeology in Peru.

D.They are all archaeologists all over the world.

【3】Why is Parcak's project important to India?

A.India lacks thorough archaeological work.

B.Indians call for the protection of their rich cultures.

C.There's no amazing archaeological discovery in India.

D.India needs more relics listed as World Heritage Sites.

【4】What does the underlined sentence "The possibilities are huge. " in Paragraph 6 mean?

A.Parcak's project will become successful.

B.Few countries will start satellite surveys.

C.There will be amazing discoveries in India.

D.More archaeological sites will be identified.

I’m writing to tell you something about the discussion on if it is necessary for senior one student to take the one-week military training. Students’ views on it varies from person to person.

Some held that it is necessary. On one hand, it can improve students’ teamwork spirit, who will play an important part in their life and study. On the other hand, it is no doubt that they become stronger physically and mentally through the training.

Besides, the others have opposite views. They think it is waste of time. Meanwhile, students get burnt easy without any protection in the sun.

As far as I’m concerned about, though we may feel tired during the training, it goes without saying that the one-week military training is meaningful.

【題目】 Although most people believe that owning a business or working on an idea means you are an entrepreneur (企業(yè)家), the reality is that entrepreneurship is so much more than just these two things. It is about the ability to innovate (創(chuàng)新) by helping society progress. For those who aspire to become real entrepreneurs, the path to turn your thought into entrepreneurship is one that requires you to know yourself.

Recognize what skills you are good at. Everybody wants money. But many fail to realize that money is the extension ( 延伸) of your skills, so the most important aspect of learning to make money starts by knowing what skills you have. Make a list of your skills and you should see where your strengths lie. The goal with this exercise is to recognize what skills you are good at naturally. Make good use of them until you finally change more of your skills into usable abilities for your business.

Make use of your confidence to create belief. Confidence is a result of repeating one thing. The more you practice doing something, the more confident you become in the process needed to see it to the end. Starting a business requires confidence, so most people who have zero confidence in the process fail to get started because it is an unknown area. You have to believe in the idea, the process and the ability within yourself to bring your business project to life. Without confidence, belief doesn't exist; without belief, the chances of giving up are high.

Allow your love to become enthusiasm. The last ingredient outside of your skills and confidence is the ability to focus on ideas that you feel enthusiastic about. Having passion will push you to struggle for something you love and turn that longing into action. The goal is to identify topics of interest so that you can start showing some aspects of passion as you start your project. The closer a project is to your heart, the less pessimistic you will become when results don't go your way.

【1】What can we learn from Paragraph 2?

A.It is very difficult for us to know our skills.

B.Knowing your skills is the first step to learn to make money.

C.To recognize your skills will surely make your business successful.

D.To recognize your skills is more important than making money.

【2】What's the importance of enthusiasm for us?

A.It can help us find out what we love.

B.It can make us never feel pessimistic.

C.It can push us to work hard on our goals.

D.It will make us succeed in whatever we are doing.

【3】What does this passage mainly talk about?

A.The advantages of confidence.

B.The ability to focus on ideas.

C.Why people want to be an entrepreneur.

D.How you can go from ideas to an entrepreneur.
