【題目】Directions:Read the following passage. Summarize the main idea and the main point(s) of the passage in no more than 60 words. Use your own words as far as possible.

The benefits of having a higher education are manifold (多樣的) and range from financial to cultural and from common benefits to some unexpected surprises, below you will find a number of reasons which will help to serve as justification for a higher education.

For many high school students, it is hard to imagine what the long-term benefits of a college education might be. College is demanding; the work seems challenging, and meeting all new people seems overwhelming. However, what most young people do not realize is that there is a high likelihood at college that you will find new friends with similar interests and values. You may find yourself developing new interests by getting along with those who have completely different life experiences. An opportunity to get to know your professors can also be counted one of the benefits of having a college education. These intellectuals can be counted on to welcome questions and discussion from students. Therefore, one of the key benefits of a college education is the social bonds created and developed during this unique time in a person’s life.

Besides, the fact that you’ll be building a career for the rest of your life is reason enough to make time for a college education. Indeed, a clear benefit of a college education is that not only will it give you time to better know your likes and dislikes before entering the labor force, it will also enhance the likelihood of a more successful career for you. Many young people are uncertain about a career path at the start of college. This is a time of exploration, and taking the time to explore a variety of college majors is time well spent.

One more justification for higher education could be that it is the best way to enhance yourself in an all-round way. Getting a good education may be the most important price you can pay for your personal advancement, because perhaps more than anything else, what you do with that huge gray material between your ears will determine your future. You never know where your talent could reach. So higher education can provide you with the chance to realize your personal value.

Therefore, never undervalue the benefits of entering a higher education, which surely will bring you something beyond expectation.

【答案】A higher education benefits one's life in many aspects. (要點1)Despite pre-college anxiety, you can establish valuable social relationships there, with friends or professors. (要點2)Besides, higher education can better prepare you for a future career by exploring your interest and likelihood of success. (要點3)Last but not least, higher education can lead to full personal development. (要點4)Therefore, its advantages can never be underestimated. (要點5)

【題目】The Dangers of Binge-Watching

The common use of Tik Tok and many other streaming services has created a new problem in today's society: binge-watching. This allows teens to spend huge amounts of time watching shows without a break. Some teens even spend the entire weekend glued to the screens. 【1】 When it becomes a regular habit, however, binge-watching can really create some problems.

If teens regularly head for their devices for binge-watching , they are more likely to experience loneliness and depression. It makes sense. Lonely or depressed teens will turn to mindless bing-watching to get their attention off those negative feelings. However, it doesn't really fix anything. It is a temporary band-aid that covers the real problem. 【2】

The shows teens watch tend to directly affect their minds. Therefore, negative shows, or those with negative portrayals(描繪)of the world around them, can increase feelings of negativity and depression.【3】Too many shows are filled with model-thin individuals who are still complaining that they don't look good in their clothes. This can lead a young girl to worry about her physical appearance.

Some teens don't have the self-control to their binge-watching habits on their own. 【4】 Parents need to be aware of how much time their teens are spending on their devices. Setting limits on screen-time can be easy to accomplish with a good parental control software.

Having regular conversations with your teens about this behavior is critical. Encourage them to tell you why they are binge-watching, what they're watching, and how they're feeling to help them develop healthier viewing habits. 【5】 By doing so parents have set a clear line that displays when binge-watching has to stop.

A.Worse still, it can merely cause the sense of loneliness to build up.

B.Sure, the occasional binge-watching doesn't sound too bad.

C.For this reason, what parents can do with the situation is critical.

D.They spend more time with screens than with their peers or parents.

E.Parents can also help schedule other activities to fill up the day.

F.Even body image can be linked to the shows that teens watch.

G.Instead, they can simply sit there, staring at the screen and no more effort is needed.

【題目】閱讀下面材料，根據(jù)其內(nèi)容進行續(xù)寫,使之構(gòu)成一個完整的短文。

Lill was a shy , young girl who grew up in a village. At the age of 16, her father forced her to drop out of school and find a job to help the family.

With poor education, skills and hope, the young girl would take the bus into the big cities of Windsor and Detroit, walk aimlessly about and then return home every day. She couldn't even bring herself to knock on a door.

As the days passed, Lill knew she had to have the courage to knock on a door. On one of her trips, Lill saw a sign at Carhartt Overall Company, saying, “Help Wanted, Secretary. Apply Within. ” She walked up to the office and was met by the office manager Margaret, who sat her down at a typewriter and said with a smile, “Let's see how good you really are."

She directed Lill to type a single letter and then left. Lill looked at the clock： 11: 40 am. She figured that she could run away in the crowd when the clock struck 12. But she knew she should at least stay and give it a try.

On her first try, she got through one line. It had five words and she made four mistakes. She pulled the paper out and threw it away. The clock read 11: 45. “In fifteen minutes," she said to herself, “I'll escape from the company, and she will never see me again. ” On her second try, Lill got through a full paragraph, but still made many mistakes. Again she pulled out the paper, threw it out and started over. This time she completed the whole letter, but still there were many errors in it. She looked at the clock： 11:55 — five minutes to freedom.

注意：1. 所續(xù)寫短文的詞數(shù)應為150左右；

2. 應使用5個以上短文中標有下劃線的關(guān)鍵詞語；

3. 續(xù)寫部分分為兩段,每段的開頭語已為你寫好；

4. 續(xù)寫完成后，請用下劃線標出你所使用的關(guān)鍵詞語。

Just then, the door at one end of the office opened and Margaret walked in. __________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

Lill did stay at Carhartt Overall Company for 51 years, __________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

【題目】 Driving while talking on the phone increases the likelihood of an accident and is actually more dangerous than driving drunk, U.S. researchers report. This holds true whether the driver is holding a cell phone or using a handsfree device.

“As a society, we have agreed on not tolerating the risk associated with drunk driving,”said researcher Frank Drews, an assistant professor of psychology at the University of Utah.“This study shows us that somebody who is conversing on a cell phone is exposing him or herself and others to a similar risk — cell phones actually are a higher risk,”he said.

In the study, 40 people followed a pace car along a prescribed course, using a driving simulator （模擬儀）. Some people drove while talking on a cell phone, others drove while drunk（meaning their blood-alcohol limit matched the legal limit of 0.08 percent）, and others drove with no such distractions. The researchers found an increased accident rate when people were conversing on the cell phone. Drivers on cell phones were 5.36 times more likely to get in an accident.

The bottom line: Cellphone use was linked to“a significant increase in the accident rate,” Drews said.

The phone users did even worse than the inebriated, the Utah team found. There were three accidents among those talking on cell phones — all of them involving a rearending（追尾） of the pace car. In contrast, there were no accidents recorded among participants who were drunk.

In response to safety concerns, some states have declared it illegal to use hand held cell phones while driving. But that type of law may not be effective, because the Utah researchers found no difference in driver performance whether the driver was holding the phone or talking on a handsfree model.

“We have seen again and again that there is no difference between handsfree and handheld devices,”Drews said.“The problem is the conversation. The best solution to the problem is obvious: Don’t talk on the phone while you are driving. ”

【1】Which group of drivers performed worst in the study?

A.Those phone users.

B.Those who are drunk.

C.Those following a pace car.

D.Those with hearing problems.

【2】What does the underlined phrase“the inebriated”in paragraph 5 refer to?

A.The drunk drivers.

B.The researchers.

C.The cellphonefree drivers.

D.The Utah team.

【3】What can be concluded from the last two paragraphs?

A.Driver performance has nothing to do with the use of mobile phones.

B.It is timely to ban the use of handheld phones while driving.

C.The Utah researchers find the traffic safety law works as well as before.

D.Talking on the phone while driving should be avoided.

【4】In which section of a newspaper is this text from?

A.Sports.

B.Economy.

C.Society.

D.Entertainment.
