Section A
Directions: 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.
Gallup used to conduct a poll(投票) that asked students to name the school subject that they considered to be the most difficult. Not ____51____, mathematics came out on top of the difficulty chart. So what is it about math that makes it difficult?
https://www.doczj.com/doc/b611411809.html, defines the word “difficult” as “not easily or readily done; requiring much ____52___ or planning to be performed successfully.”This definition gets to the point of the problem when it comes to math. What makes math difficult is that it takes patience and persistence. For many students, math is not something that comes ___53_____. It takes effort. It is a subject that sometimes requires students to devote lots and lots of time and ___54_____.
This means, for many, the problem has little to do with brain power; it is mostly a matter of staying power. And since students don’t make their own timelines, they can ___55____ the time as the teacher moves on to the next topic.
In fact, there is also an element of brain style in the big picture, according to many scientists. They believe that people are born with ___56____math understanding skills. Logical, left-brain thinkers tend to understand things in sequential bits, while artistic, intuitive, right-brainers are more ___57____. They take in a lot of information at one time and allow time to let it “sink in”. so left-brain students may grasp concepts __58____ while right-brain students don’t. To the right brain student, time loss can make them feel confused and behind. Unfortunately in busy classrooms with too many students, students are mot always ___59____ enough time. We have to move on, ready or not.
Math know-how is also cumulative(积累), which means it works much like a pile of building blocks. You have to gain enough ___60___ in one area before you can effectively go on to “build upon” another area. Our first mathematical building blocks are established in primary school, when we learn ____61___ for addition and multiplication, and those first concepts become our ___62__. These mathematical concepts or knowledge has to sink in and become ___63___ before students can move on to challenge the next stage of new concepts. However, teachers don’t have time to ensure that every single student understands every single concept. So some students move to the next level with really shaky knowledge system. ___64____, as they climb the ladder, they may meet with more and more difficulties and
might ___65_____ complete failure at some point.

Section B
Directions: Read the following three passages. Each passage is followed by several questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage you have read.
(A)
October 17, 1989 is a day San Francisco will never forget. On that day, an uncommon number of tragedies took place. It was also a day when total strangers became linked. The story of Jim Betts and Julio Berumen is a moving example of one such meeting.
On that day, Petra Berumen took her daughter Cathy to the dentist. Also in the car was her son six-year-old Julio and their family friend Yolanda. Soon after Petra drove onto the highway, disaster struck. Without
warning, the earth began to shake.
The damage was terrible. Hugh trees bent as if they were made of rubber. Streets cracked and buildings collapsed. At least a stretch of the highway had crashed onto the lower level.
Then as quickly as it started, the earthquake stopped. The Berumens’s car had been crushed be the steel. Petra and Yolanda were killed instantly. Cathy escaped unhurt but Julio, though still alive, was in danger. Not only was his right leg pinned down by the steel, he was also squeezed between the dead bodies of his mother and Yolanda.
Rescuers had calmed Julio by the time Jim Betts, a doctor from Oakland Hospital, arrived. For two hours, Jim tried to free Julio with two bare hands. He did not stop to worry about the fact that aftershocks could send the highway to the ground. As soon as Julio was breathing, Jim kept working. However, Julio was languishing. Jim realized that he had only one choice. He would have to cut the boy’s right leg at the knee. Conditions were far from ideal. It was hot inside the car. Darkness had fallen outside.
With great care, Jim started the operation. He had to try risky methods. Finally Julio was free.
Those hours on the highway were like a nightmare. Jim said: “If my family members were up there badly hurt, they would urgently need help like that.” Though the day the earthquake tore many things apart, it also brought brave people together.
66. The San Francisco earthquake was an uncommon event for Julio and Jim because _________.
A. the earth shook violently and suddenly
B. they became linked unexpectedly
C. they neither could see the broken highway
D. they both lost their family members
67. In the fifth paragraph, Julio was languishing, which means that he was _________.
A. about to die
B. complaining about the pain
C. losing his voice
D. crying
68. According to the passage, Jim _________.
A. successfully performed the operation
B. had necessary equipment to rescue Julio
C. was able to save Julio’s right leg
D. had one family member operated on
69. Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage?
A. The Berumens were trying to leave the dangerous city when the earthquake struck.
B. Two people of the Berumen family finally survived from the earthquake.
C. Knowing aftershocks would come soon, Jim tried to rescue Julio from the car.
D. The conditions were agreeable enough for Jim to perform the operation.
(B)
At the end of the year, our magazine is revealing our annual food and shopping predictions based on our research.
Grazing Golden-Agers:
Ninety-one percent of people say they snack daily, according to Nielsen. While snacking is on the rise among all ages and genders, research shows that snacking among consumers over the age of 65 could contribute to additional years with a higher quality of life. We’ll see more boomers-those raised in the “three square meals a day” period-employ a “grazing” approach to eating foods rich in nutrients like protein, fiber and Omega3 that can help promote bone health.
Same-Day Delivery Not Just for City Clickers:
Online grocery shopping and delivery has become a crowded space, with a host of services competing for consumer attention. This trend allows everyone who sells food to be in the same-day delivery business without having to add additional operational facilities. Look for Google Shopping Express to put every supermarket in the same day delivery business and change consumer behavior to shop online for food to be delivered to homes fresh for each meal. You now can throw your refrigerator away!
The Rise of Fermented Foods:
The next year will be the year when fermented (发酵的) foods-foods like yogurt, pickles(泡菜) take center stage. These foods contain live cultures, or are preserved in liquid so their sugars and other seasonings can become bacteria-promoting agents. In fact, a survey has found that nearly 50 percent of Americans have shown interest in fermented foods, who, especially those over 60s, have improved a lot in digestion. However, if treated inappropriately, the bacteria hidden in these foods might have our hospitals full of sick dinners. Therefore make sure to study the cooking skills well before you these foods.
Supermarkets change into Socializing Spaces:
Supermarkets have evolved from straightforward centers where consumers could buy groceries to providers of lifestyle. Supermarkets are developing a variety of services that help to establish each outlet as a showcase of lifestyle trends. A desire to be “all things food” to their customers, young and old, is positioning the supermarkets as head to head competitors with chain and local restaurants. Cooking classes, and online home-made recipes are also giving consumers reasons beyond a grocery list to step inside their neighborhood supermarkets instead of a local restaurant.
70. The passage advises readers to give up refrigerator because_____
A. people eat more snacks which don’t have to be put in refrigerators
B. the refrigerators has become useless operational facilities for food sellers
C. food can be sent to customers within short time and freezing is not needed
D. Fermented foods can be kept in normal temperature for much more time.
71. For fermented foods, people must guarantee that______
A. live cultures should be introduced while eating them
B. these help in digestion should be introduced to the public
C. bacteria should be killed before being put into the foods
D. cooking should be conducted carefully to avoid disease
72. It is implied in the last paragraph that______
A. supermarkets sell recipes for trendy lifestyle to customers
B. supermarkets used to be friends of chain and local restaurants
C. people can apply for cooking classes and obtain recipes in supermarkets
D. Cooking classes encourage people to make food rather than dine out
73. The two trends that are particularly good for the elderly are_____
A. eating snacks and fermented foods
B. eating snacks and one-day delivery
C. one-day delivery and socializing supermarkets
D. fermented foods and socializing supermarkets
(C)
Today, home-ownership has reached extremely high levels. Modern generations tend to believe there is something wrong with them if they rent. However, is high home-ownership really as people imagine? Staring at data first, we realize that the most successful, stable, attractive country in the Western world is Switzerland. It has tiny unemployment; wealth; high happiness and mental-health scores. Does it have high home-ownership rates? Absolutely not. In Switzerland, about seven in ten of the population are renters. Yet, with Europe’s lowest home-ownership rate, the nation thrives. Now go to the other end of the misery distribution. Spain has approximately the highest home-ownership rate in Europe (at more than 80%). But one-quarter of its population are unemployed.
A likely reason is that high levels of home-ownership mess up the labour market. In a sensibly functioning economy it is easy for people to move around to drop into the vibrant job slots thrown up by technological change. With a high degree of owner-occupation, everything slows. Folk get stuck. Renters can go to new jobs. In that way they do the economy a favours. As Friedman said, the rate of unemployment depends on the flexibility of the housing market.
Next we come to economic breakdown. Most analysts accept that at heart it was the housing market-obsessive pursuit of homes, the engendered
mortgage(房贷) lending and an unavoidable house-price crash-that sank the Western world. Germany, say, with its more efficient rental market, had a far smoother ride through trouble.
As for the monetary system, in the past few decades, in the hope of getting untaxed capital gains way above their true labour earnings, many people threw their spare cash into buying larger houses or building extra bedrooms. TV programmes about how to make easy money, beautiful rising house prices, and most importantly, our faulty tax system encouraged that. When at some point market broke down, everyone suffered. Our countries ought, instead, to design tax systems that encourage people to invest in productive real activities and in innovation. Renting leaves money free for better purposes.
That also points to the role of sensible budgeting over a person’s lifetime. Why should we think that when we die it is necessary to have paid off an entire house? Our children do not deserve it. Let them pay for themselves. We should rent-and enjoy our lives with the money saved.
Finally, moderation usually pays off. Our scientific understanding of how economies function is horribly limited. This suggests that the golden rule should be to avoid extremes. A50-50mix of home-ownership and renting, not the 70-30 split that is now observed in so many Western nations, makes sense.
74. The cases of Switzerland and Spain prove that_____
A. low home-ownership rate at about 30% is most favourable for economy
B. home-ownership mainly decides a country’s citizens’ mental health
C. home-ownership has a lot to do with a country’s technological
development
D. low home-ownership increases the mobility of job market and economy
75. The main reason to make people invest in housing market is____
A. the problematic taxing approach favouring house buying
B. people’s desire to avoid their money from devaluing
C. easy channels to obtain methods to make easy money
D. people’s wishes to live in large and more comfortable houses
76. Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage?
A. Switzerland suffers the worse unemployment in Europe
B. Renting allows more money into more creative economic activites
C. Germany’s effective mortgage system saw it through the western economic
crisis
D. Our children have the right to enjoy the housing property we have paid off
77. What opinion does the author agree with most?
A. People should learn the workings of housing market
B. Laws should be set up to stop people from buying houses
C. An adequate rate of home-ownership should be kept
D. People should follow the good example of Europe in housing investment
Section C
Directions: Read the passage carefully. Then answer the questions or complete the statements in the fewest possible words.
The herds of bulls and horses depicted running along the walls of the Lascaux caves in France are among the most magnificent examples of prehistoric art ever discovered.
But rather than displaying hunting scenes, new evidence suggests that the images actually represent the frightening sounds which came from the mouths of the caves.
US researcher Steven Waller believes that the echoes(回声) of clapping outside the cave would have sounded like hundreds of animal feet drumming on the ground. He proposes that the caves were preserved for their sound properties, which prehistoric peoples mistook for supernatural noises.
Ancient stories explained echoes from the mouths of certain giant caves as replies from spirits, so our ancestors chose to decorate these caves with paintings believing that they were inhabited by spirits and gods.
Beside animal sounds, many ancient cultures attributed thunder in the sky to ‘thunder gods,’ so it makes sense that some lasting echoes within the caves were interpreted as thunder and inspired paintings of those thunder gods on cave walls.
The idea is also supported by audio theory, which shows statistically significant similarities between the rock are sites and modern sound reflection equipment.
As for the presence of the famous Stonehenge(巨石阵) in Britain, Mr. Walker also suggests it may have been the sound of the prehistoric monument, rather than the sight, that inspired its creation.
He claims that its architects may have been trying to recreate a sound-effect similar to the ritual sound made during religious dancing.
People taking part in a religious dance around a pair of pipes would have heard the music grow quieter as they moved past certain pipes due to a natural phenomenon known as an ‘interference pattern.’ If they were blindfold, it would have created the illusion that the sound was intermittently being reduced by invisible gods as they danced. According to Dr. Walker, the effects became so impressive that ancient people attempted to capture it in store. Therefore the Stonehenge appeared.
However some British experts said that it was clear that Stonehenge had been created over several centuries rather than being ‘thrown up overnight.’They claimed that there was no question in the traditional view that lining up along the mid-summer sunrise and mid-winter sunset was the ultimate purpose for its building.
(Note: Answer the questions or complete the statements in NO MORE THAN TEN WORDS.)
78. According to ancient people, who lived in the big caves?
79. Modern sound science finds that ____ and _____ have much in common.
80. According to Walker, how was the sound made weaker during religious
dancing?
81. The traditional view believes that Stonehenge was built in order to ______.

【2018宝山区—一模】 IV. Summary Writing Secure payment without leaving a trace Computer scientist Andy Rupp, member of the “Signaling Code and Security” working group, is always surprised about lacking problem awareness: only few users are aware of the fact that by using payment systems they disclose in detail how and what they consume or which routes they have taken. To prevent control of the accounts by dishonest users, customer data and account balances of payment are usually carried out with the help of a central database. In every payment deal, the customer is identified and the details of her/his deal are transmitted to the central database. This repeated identification process produces a data trace that might be misused by the provider or third parties. The expert has now presented the basics of an “electronic purse” that works by unknown names, but prevents misuse at the same time. The “black-box addition plus” (BBA+) code system developed by them transfers all necessary account data to the card used or the smartphone and guarantees their secrets with the help of signaling code methods. At the same time, BBA+ offers security guarantees for the operator of the payment system: The code system guarantees a correct account balance and is mathematically constructed such that the identity of the user is disclosed as soon as the attempt is made to pay with a controlled account. “Our new code system guarantees privacy and security for customers during offline operation as well,” Andy Rupp says. “This is needed for ensuring the payment system’s suitability for daily use. Think of a subway doorway or a payment bridge. There you may have no internet connection at all or it is very slow.” Also its high efficiency makes the code system suited for everyday use: During first test runs, researchers completed payments within about one second. ①when customers use payment systems, most of them don’t realize the fact that by doing so, they risk( take the risk of ) losing privacy. ②Researchers have now developed a secure system called BBA+, which works anonymously and avoids misuses as well. ③moreover ( apart from / besides the security of privacy), it also proves to be efficient for daily use.(47 words) 【2018—崇明区一模】 IV.

One【宝山】 (A) “Runners, to your mark, Get set…” Bang! And I was off, along with a bunch of other teenage cross-country runners from high schools across the county. The day was like any other fair-weather autumn day in Maryland. But the race that day felt unique from the get-go. For one thing, I liked the course. It was my team’s home course, one I was used to running durin g practices. It took runners along an area of land that included open fields, hills and even winding dirt paths through a small forest. It was a beautiful 5-kilometer course. This particular race was our team’s invite, and I was proud to be sharing the cou rse with competitors from other schools. It also meant a lot―more than normal that my parents were there to cheer me on. With so much to expect that day, I was ready to run! And I didn’t want to be stuck with the pack of other runners, as is typical at the beginning of most cross-country races. So when the gun sounded, I took off running, leaving everyone else in the dust. The first part of our course followed the outside edge of a large open field before disappearing into the forest. Within seconds of the start, I was far ahead of everyone, and all of the fans could see it. It felt magnificent. But that feeling didn’t last long. Little did I know my coach was laughing to himself, thinking, “Gabe is done for!” And I was. My body was telling me to slow down. My pride, however, said “No! Not until you’re out of sight of the spectators!” I was in agony, but I kept up my pace until I reached the forest. Once in among the trees. I slowed way down. I enjoyed most races, even while pushing myself, but this one was not enjoyable in the least. I finished the race, but in nowhere near the time I could have if I’d paced myself well from the beginning. Every time I reflect on that cross-country season, I’m reminded of something: Pride is no substitute for pace. 56.What is special to the author about the race? A. The weather condition was good for runners. B. He was familiar with the home course.

I'm sure (if you were anything like my younger self) that you used to collect mechanical pencils. In one of the math preparatory classes I (21)________(go) to in elementary and middle school, we used to receive-mechanical pencils as prizes for doing well on the in-class exams or answering questions in class. This was (22)________ I built up my collection of Cadoozles, which are short mechanical pencils decorated with brightly colored spaceships and ice cream bars. But I've long since used up all my Cadoozles and a majority of the mechanical pencils that I (23) ________(hide) in an empty moon-cake tin so many years before, which makes me reflect fondly back on those old days, when receiving a mechanical pencil was as easy as drinking a glass of water. Mechanical pencils are not only more convenient than your traditional Ticonderoga in the sense that they never need (24) ________ (sharpen); they also produce thinner, cleaner lines, which is extremely important for drawers and drafters. Furthermore, they are environmentally friendly, since you don't have to buy (25) ________ wooden pencil whenever you run out of lead(铅芯). You can simply refill your mechanical pencil. There is only one slight negative I must remark on, (26)________ is that as someone who calls mechanical pencils "lead pencil" in casual conversation, the term "lead pencil" is confusing. Mechanical pencil lead is actually not made from the chemical element lead. It is made from a mixture of graphite and clay, which (27)________ not give you lead poisoning. This is contrary to what my third-grade teacher said when she saw my classmate John clicking his mechanical pencil against his index finger out of boredom: "John,stop that! You're going to get lead poisoning!" I think all the third-graders (and teachers) in the world would feel much (28)________(safe) if they knew what really made up the pencils they use every day.
