8．根據(jù)短文內(nèi)容，從短文后的選項(xiàng)中選出能填入空白處的最佳選項(xiàng)，選項(xiàng)中有兩項(xiàng)為多余選項(xiàng)．
How to be more creative every day
Creativity isn't something you either have or don't have．In fact，it is something like playing the saxophone．（36）E So read on to know how．
?Be more curious．
It's important to seek out new viewpoints every day．（37）F To involve this in your daily life，make sure to keep an open mind when you're presented with an idea，and be curious as to what else is around the comer．
?Give yourself space．
Letting every piece of information into your brain drags you from being creative．Try to apply a level of space into your everyday life．（38）C It helps to lead your thinking patterns away from potential distractions （分心的事物），leaving much room to have creative ideas．
?Try something new．
Frequent thinking patterns，in effect，cause you to be more likely to think the same things or make the same decisions over and over unless you get out of your comfort zone．（39）G Though not always easy，it does open up a whole new world of thinking!
?（40）B
Social media has created an environment where we're constantly shown whether we've succeeded in the form of likes or comments，which leads us to doubt ourselves．However，creativity is a journey，and you're learning every step of the way．Honestly，you'11learn much more from that than a straight win anyway．So be confident and tell yourself you have already done well enough．

A．Learn from failure．
B．Remind yourself you're good enough．
C．The 8 p．m．-8 a．m．phone ban is a great way to begin．
D．Getting physical really helps to sort out your brain space．
E．But it's not easy to feel or be automatically creative either．
F．Thus you can think and approach things from another angle．
G．Using your skills in a different area is a great way to think outside the box．

分析 本文屬于說(shuō)明文閱讀，作者通過(guò)這篇文章主要向我們描述了如何每天更有創(chuàng)意的一些方法，如好奇，給自己空間，嘗試新的東西，從失敗中吸取教訓(xùn)等．

解答 36．E．推理判斷題．根據(jù)前文Creativity isn't something you either have or don't have．In fact，it is something like playing the saxophone可知自主創(chuàng)造是不容易的；故選E．
37．F．推理判斷題．根據(jù)后文To involve this in your daily life，make sure to keep an open mind when you're presented with an idea，and be curious as to what else is around the comer可知因此你可以從另一個(gè)角度思考和處理事物；故選F．
38．C．推理判斷題．根據(jù)前文Letting every piece of information into your brain drags you from being creative．Try to apply a level of space into your everyday life可知晚上8點(diǎn)到早上8點(diǎn)的禁令是一個(gè)好方法；故選C．
39．G．推理判斷題．根據(jù)前文Frequent thinking patterns，in effect，cause you to be more likely to think the same things or make the same decisions over and over unless you 可知使用你的技能在不同的領(lǐng)域是一個(gè)偉大的方式來(lái)思考；故選G．
40．B．推理判斷題．根據(jù)后文Social media has created an environment where we're constantly shown whether we've succeeded in the form of likes or comments可知你應(yīng)該提醒自己已經(jīng)足夠好；故選B．

點(diǎn)評(píng) 七選五閱讀是完成性閱讀，和完形填空很類似，不同的是一個(gè)選詞，一個(gè)選句子．解題時(shí)，要注意上下文語(yǔ)境，充分考慮信息詞（選項(xiàng)中和空格前后句子中相同或相近的詞），選出最符合語(yǔ)境的句子．

3．Forget about the"post-1995 generation"．Young people born in 1995 or later have another name in English-Generation Z．
Now entering adulthood and soon to join the workforce，Generation Z grew up in a special period of time-a time in which technology developed fast，social changes happened every day，the internet became universal and，sadly，so did global terrorism．
It is believed that Generation Z is the generation that is going to shape our future，which is why policy makers，sociologists and company leaders are trying their best to understand these young people．
So，what are Gen Z-ers really like？
Most people agree that the single biggest difference between Gen Z and other generations is how connected they are．This is a group of people who have been familiar with social media as soon as they were born．Social media has changed the way Gen Z-ers communicate with each other and how they get and understand information．
"We are the first true digital natives．I can almost create a document，edit it，post a photo on Instagram and talk on the phone，all at the same time，"said Hannah Payne，an 18-year-old student at UCLA，according to The New York Times．"Generation Z takes in information very fast and loses interest just as fast．"
It may be true that Generation Z-ers have a shorter attention span （注意力持續(xù)時(shí)間）than a goldfish，but sice they grew up among social changes，they are more active in politics．According to the British Election Study，58 percent of 18-t0-24-year-old voted in the 2015 general election in the UK，a big jump from 38 percent in 2005．
Generation Z-ers are also culture creators．"Growing up with the internet has freed this generation from traditional cultural expression．"Wrote Grace Masback，a Huffington Post blogger and a Gen Z-er herself．According to Masback，these young people are no longer willing to let their creativity．According to Masback，these young people are no longer willing to let their creativity be limited by their parents of traditional rules．They watch videos and read news online instead of on TV，and they share their experiences on social media．

13．Taktak tabulaba？
You probably don't know how to answer that question---unless you happen to be one of the about 430people in the world who speak a language called Matukar Panau．Then you would know it means"What are we doing？"Matukar Panau is one of the world's rarest languages．It is spoken in just two small coastal villages in Papua New Guinea．
Several years ago，David Harrison，a language expert didn't know much about Matukar Panau either．No one had ever recorded or even studied its words and rules．With so few speakers，the language risked disappearing soon．It was endangered．
Harrison didn't want that to happen to Matukar Panau．So in 2009，he set out for Papua New Guinea．His goal：use modern technology to help the remaining speakers preserve their native tongue．
But Matukar Panau is far from the only language facing loss．Studies suggest that by the end of this century，nearly half of the 7，000languages now spoken worldwide could disappear．They're in danger partly because the only people left speaking them are elderly adults，Harrison says．When those individuals die，their language will die with them．In addition，children may discard a native language and instead use more common global languages，such as Chinese，English or Spanish．
In the United States alone，134native American languages are endangered．Harrison says，"language hotspots"exist all over the world．These are places with endangered languages that haven't been recorded．They include the state of Oklahoma，pockets of central and eastern Siberia，parts of northern Australia and communities in South America．

32．The purpose of using the question"Taktak tabulaba？"is toB．
A．introduce a new foreign language
B．introduce the topic of the text
C．show the difficulty understanding Matukar Panau
D．stress the importance of Matukar Panau
33．What did Harrison go to PaPua New Guinea for？C
A．Learning their native language
B．Leaning their modern technology
C．Helping preserve their endangered tongue
D．Teaching the natives a new language
34．The underline word"discard"in Paragraph 5meansA．
A．get rid of                 B．pick up
C．hear of                   D．learn about
35．The last two paragraphs imply that endangered languages areC．
A．dying quickly in Siberia
B．popular in some special places
C．becoming a worldwide problem
D．some native tongues．

17．I was born and raised in England in a culture where privacy and"keeping yourself to yourself"were valued traditions．Speaking to strangers was not encouraged．People were most hospitable（好客的）and friendly．
    However，I have been lucky enough to spend some time in both Italy and the US，where I found traditions of hospitality and politeness to be very different．
    I experienced Italian hospitality first-hand on a crowded railway carriage travelling，one afternoon，from Genoa to Florence．Sinking gratefully into an empty seat，I was scolded in rapid Italian by a gentleman who was returning to this seat-it had not been"spare"after all．I apologized in English，and got up to allow him back into the seat．The gentleman obviously had no understanding of the English language，but he，too，realized my genuine（真誠(chéng)的） mistake．He smiled and gestured for me to remain in the seat，and he himself remained standing in the corridor for the remainder of the journey．The other occupants of the carriage smiled and nodded at me and made me feel quite welcome amongst them．I feel that if this had been in England，a foreigner who made a mistake would not always be so kindly treated．
    Transport also featured in the differences I noticed between English and American culture．I flew to New York on a plane with mainly English passengers．We sat together in near silence．Nobody spoke to me nor，as I expected，to anyone else they did not know．They felt it was not polite tointerrupt someone else's privacy．However，when I travelled across the United States，whether by plane or Greyhound bus，I was never short of conversation．Conversation was going on all around me and whoever sat next to me was happy to introduce themselves and ask me about myself．They obviously felt it would have been rude not to speak to another person，whether they were strangers or not．

25．What do we know about the occupants when the author was travelling in Italy？D
A．They were all on the side of the gentleman．
B．They all laughed at the author for his mistake．
C．They would not bear a mistake like the author's in public．
D．They all showed their understanding of the author's mistake．
26．How does the author finally believes the Italian people are？D
A．Cold              B．Rude      C．Helpful          D．Hospitable
27．Why did English passengers sit in near silence according to the last paragraph？C
A．They were too tired to speak to anyone．
B．They were all strangers to each other
C．Privacy was a valued tradition in England
D．Everybody was deeply lost in thought
28．What can be the best title for the text？A
A．Different Ways of Hospitality and Politeness
B．My Unforgettable Travelling Experience Abroad
C．Co-understanding Each Other
D．The Importance of Privacy．
