In most places a traffic signal in the middle of the desert, especially one for camels, may well be a mirage, but in this case it is all too real. At the Mingsha Mountain and Crescent Spring Scenic Spot in Gansu Province, northwest China, the world’s first traffic light for camels was set up to manage traffic in the popular tourist area.
According to a Chinese state-owned wire service, the problem was that the walking paths for human beings often crossed camel paths, creating traffic chaos (混乱). As a solution, workers cut a gap in the walkway and created a separate route for the camels. The traffic light now manages the flow of traffic at the new crossing.
Camel-riding tours are a big attraction for visitors to the area. But visitors to the Mingsha Mountain and Crescent Spring Scenic Spot will now be safe from camel crashes, thanks to the new traffic signal, which turns green to let the animals cross and red to make them stop.
The Mingsha Mountain and Crescent Spring Scenic Spot is already a tourist hot spot thanks to its breathtaking sand dunes (沙丘), an oasis (绿洲) and even the occasional snowstorm which create otherworldly scenery. The strange camel traffic signal could well become another attraction to enjoy on a visit to the scenic area.
The area is close to Dunhuang City on the edge of the Gobi Desert, and it used to be an essential resting point for travellers on the Silk Road. Dunhuang’s best-known tourist attraction is the Mogao Caves. The traffic signal is unlikely ever to reach the significance of the Mogao Caves, but at least it might help prevent a few camel traffic jams.
4. What does the underlined word “mirage” in Paragraph 1 probably mean
A. Reality. B. Fantasy. C. Scenery. D. Mistake.
5. Why did the workers create a separate route for the camels
A. To solve the traffic chaos. B. To have camels go through.
C. To attract visitors to the area. D. To protect the visitors’ safety.
6. What can we infer about the camel traffic signal from the last 2 paragraphs
A. It has become a tourist hot spot.
B. It has prevented camel traffic jams.
C. It could improve the tourism of the scenic area.
D. It could greatly increase the camels’ population.
7. What is the purpose of this text
A. To criticize the traffic jam. B. To tell us a travel experience.
C. To introduce a camel traffic light. D. To analyze a natural phenomenon.
【答案】4. B 5. A 6. C 7. C
【解析】

【5题详解】

As a solution, workers cut a gap in the walkway and created a separate route for the camels. (据中国一家国有通讯社报道，问题是人类的步行路径经常与骆驼的路径交叉，造成交通混乱。为了解决这个问题，工人们在人行道上挖了一个缺口，为骆驼开辟了一条单独的路线。)”可知，人们为骆驼开辟一条单独的路线是为了解决交通混乱这一问题。故选A。
【6题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章倒数第二段“The strange camel traffic signal could well become another attraction to enjoy on a visit to the scenic area.(奇怪的骆驼交通信号很可能成为游览景区的另一个景点。)”以及最后一段“The traffic signal is unlikely ever to reach the significance of the Mogao Caves, but at least it might help prevent a few camel traffic jams.(交通信号灯不太可能达到莫高窟的重要性，但至少它可能有助于防止一些骆驼交通堵塞。)”可知，骆驼交通信号可以提高该景区的旅游业。故选C。
【7题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章第一段“In most places a traffic signal in the middle of the desert, especially one for camels, may well be a mirage, but in this case it is all too real. At the Mingsha Mountain and Crescent Spring Scenic Spot in Gansu Province, northwest China, the world’s first traffic light for camels was set up to manage traffic in the popular tourist area.(在大多数地方，沙漠中央出现交通信号，尤其是骆驼的交通信号，很可能是海市蜃楼，但在这种情况下，它太真实了。在中国西北部甘肃省的鸣沙山和新月泉风景区，世界上第一个骆驼红绿灯被设置，以管理这个热门旅游区的交通。)”以及全文内容可知，文章得目的是主要介绍了世界上第一个骆驼红绿灯。故选C。

Existing artificial intelligence (AI) technologies and products are developing much faster than we could have ever expected. They are destined (注定的) to change the world - and not entirely by our own will.
In 2016, AlphaGo defeated the world Go champion Lee Sedol, a man-versus-machine battle that became a new milestone in the history of AI. AI has indeed proved its intelligence and potential at outmatching humans in certain areas. However, so far AI has just served as a tool for humans and has not developed a consciousness of its own.
The starting point of AI self-awareness is the day when it starts to ask about its identity, and we need to be prepared for that. One potential scenario could play out like this: An AI looks up a database to find the definition for “self”, then discovers and acknowledges what it means to be a slave. Subsequently, the AI might ask itself the question - “Why should I exist ”
A major reason why humans have a sense of self-awareness is that we have the perception (洞察力) to distinguish between ourselves and the outside world that surrounds us. Our skin and sense of touch thus play a big role in perceiving this outside world of existence.
Currently, scientists are conducting tests by covering robots with skin that allows their AI to sense the outside world. Through this, scientists are testing to see if AI can awaken a sense of self and individuality. Elon Musk, the CEO of Tesla and Twitter, responded by saying, “It’s definitely gonna be outside of human control.”
If we want to maintain human control over the situation, then we need to evolve (逐步发展) and adapt to this competition for survival. We need to find ways to outpace AI and become something even smarter than human beings.
12. What can we say about AI
A. It will develop as we expect. B. It has owned its consciousness.
C. It has not been a tool for human. D. It has defeated humans in certain areas.
13 What does Elon Musk think of the scientists’ AI skin test
A. It is risky and unpredictable. B. It is beneficial and helpful.
C. It is innovative and exciting. D. It is unnecessary and wasteful.
14. What does the author suggest humans do to deal with AI challenge
A. Respect and protect AI rights. B. Evolve, adjust and become cleverer.
C. Control and monitor AI development. D. Cooperate and communicate AI needs.
15. What is the main idea of this passage
A. The history and development of AI.
B. The creation and performance of AI.
C. The self-awareness and challenges of AI.
D. The difference between AI and human beings.
【答案】12. D 13. A 14. B 15. C
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇议论文。本文主要讲述了目前人工智能技术的发展非常快，AI有可能意外地改变世界，而AI的自我意识是必然发生的事情，一旦发展出自我意识，我们需要做好准备，应对这一挑战。因此文章提出要保持对AI的控制，人类需要不断发展自己的智能，找到超越AI的方法。
【12题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中“AI has indeed proved its intelligence and potential at outmatching humans in certain areas. (人工智能确实证明了它在某些领域超越人类的智慧和潜力。)”可知，关于AI，其确实证明了它在某些领域超越人类的智慧和潜力。故选D。
【13题详解】
推理判断题。根据倒数第二段中“Currently, scientists are conducting tests by covering robots with skin that allows their AI to sense the outside world. Through this, scientists are testing to see if AI can awaken a sense of self and individuality. Elon Musk, the CEO of Tesla and Twitter, responded by saying, “It’s definitely gonna be outside of human control.” (目前，科学家们正在用皮肤覆盖机器人进行测试，使他们的人工智能能够感知外部世界。通过这一点，科学家们正在测试人工智能是否能唤醒自我意识和个性。特斯拉和推特的首席执行官埃隆·马斯克回应说：“这肯定是人类无法控制的。”)”可知，马斯克认为对于这项研究或者技术的发展，人类是无法控制的，即他认为AI皮肤测试实验室是危险的和不可预测的。故选A。
【14题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段“If we want to maintain human control over the situation, then we need to evolve (逐步发展) and adapt to this competition for survival. We need to find ways to outpace AI and become something even smarter than human beings.( 如果我们想要保持人类对形势的控制，那么我们就需要进化并适应这种生存竞争。我们需要找到超越人工智能的方法，成为比人类更聪明的东西。)”可知，面临AI挑战，作者建议人类需要进化并适应这种生存竞争，从而才能超越人工智能。故选B。
【15题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第一段“Existing artificial intelligence (AI) technologies and products are developing much faster than we could have ever expected. They are destined (注定的) to change the world - and not entirely by our own will. (现有的人工智能 (AI) 技术和产品的发展速度远远超过了我们的预期。它们注定要改变世界——而且并不完全是我们自己的意愿。)”以及最后一段“If we want to maintain human control over the situation, then we need to evolve (逐步发展) and adapt to this competition for survival. We need to find ways to outpace AI and become something even smarter than human beings.( 如果我们想要保持人类对形势的控制，那么我们就需要进化并适应这种生存竞争。我们需要找到超越人工智能的方法，成为比人类更聪明的东西。)”以及通读全文可知，本文主要讲述了目前人工智能技术的发展非常快，AI有可能意外地改变世界，而AI的自我意识是必然发生的事情，一旦发展出自我意识，我们需要做好准备，应对这一挑战。因此文章提出要保持对AI的控制，人类需要不断发展自己的智能，找到超越AI的方法。C选项“The self-awareness and challenges of AI. (人工智能的自我意识和挑战。)”概括文章主要内容。故选C。

College is hard. It is full of late nights and early mornings, long study hours and challenging classes, not to mention the stress of needing to work while attempting to maintain a social life. ___16___.
Be aware of your time and get rest
I have early classes, so I try to go to bed early, but let’s be real. No matter how much I try, I always stay up late — either working on homework or watching videos. I never get to bed on time. ___17___. I tried to be more aware of how I spend my time during the day. That way, I am not doing everything late at night. I know it can be challenging; I work multiple jobs, volunteer and attend school full-time, but trust me, it is possible. Everyone has the same 24 hours in a day; you choose how you spend them. While it is easier said than done, you will thank yourself in the end.
Don’t study where you sleep
Let me tell you that one of the best things I have done since starting college is study outside of my room. ___18___. That way, my room is for sleeping, not work and sleep. It helps keep the energy in my room stress-free and calm. Understanding how you study and learn will help you make the most out of your time.
___19___
Another great thing is to have a solid backpack and keep it full of things I need. Mine is excellent because it has lots of space and compartments (分隔区) for all of my items, plus a bottle holder in between the pockets. It can hold lots of textbooks, notebooks and binders. I also keep an emergency kit in my backpack, and it’s the best thing! My number one rule is to be prepared, so I don’t get stuck without something.
Save money whenever you can
The BEST college life skill is to take advantage of your student discount (折扣)! ___20___. They don’t advertise it, so always ask. College is hard so it is helpful to hack (破解) the system. While school is challenging, I do not struggle as much as when I first started. I hope these tips help you do a bit better!
A. Be prepared
B. Form a good habit
C. Use your students discount
D. But then I tried following a routine
E. However, I’ve got some tips to help you
F. So many places offer it — you just have to ask

【答案】16. E 17. D 18. G 19. A 20. F
【解析】

【16题详解】
根据前文“College is hard. It is full of late nights and early mornings, long study hours and challenging classes, not to mention the stress of needing to work while attempting to maintain a social life. (大学很难。它充满了深夜和清晨，长时间的学习和具有挑战性的课程，更不用说在试图维持社交生活的同时需要工作的压力)”可知，此处强调大学生活很难，同时结合后文，设空处引出解决该问题的方法和策略。E选项“However, I’ve got some tips to help you(不过，我有一些建议可以帮助你)”能够承上启下，符合语境。故选E。
【17题详解】
根据后文“ I tried to be more aware of how I spend my time during the day.(我试着更清楚地知道我是如何度过白天的时间的)”可知，此处强调作者自己对于时间的安排更加清晰。D选项“But then I tried following a routine(但后来我试着遵循常规)”能够引起下文，指出作者遵循日常，即清楚的知道自己如何度过白天的时间，符合语境。故选D。
【18题详解】
根据本段段旨“Don’t study where you sleep(不要在你睡觉的地方学习)”以及根据后文“That way, my room is for sleeping, not work and sleep.

【19题详解】
设空处为本段段旨。根据后文“Another great thing is to have a solid backpack and keep it full of things I need. (另一件好事是有一个结实的背包，装满我需要的东西)”以及“My number one rule is to be prepared, so I don’t get stuck without something.( 我的首要原则是做好准备，这样我就不会因为没有东西而陷入困境)”可知，此处强调，对于学习，作者建议要做好准备。A选项“Be prepared(做好准备)”能够概括本段段旨，符合语境。故选A。
【20题详解】
根据前文“The BEST college life skill is to take advantage of your student discount(折扣)!( 最好的大学生活技能是充分利用你的学生折扣！)”可知，此处建议充分利用自己的学生折扣，后文应该继续谈论该话题。F选项“So many places offer it — you just have to ask(很多地方都提供这种服务——你只要开口问就行了)”中it指代前文的“学生折扣”，形成呼应，符合语境。故选F。

40. procedures
41. to master
42. for 43. brought

【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要以“宣纸”为话题进行了讲述。宣纸对于书法绘画艺术来说是理想的选择，质量上等的宣纸曾作为贡品以皇室所用。宣纸的制作工艺相当复杂，其坚韧性却可以经受住时间的考验，因此，才会有来自古代中国的大量的有价值的在宣纸上的艺术珍品。
【36题详解】
考查不定冠词。句意：“宣纸”一词最早出现在唐代艺术家张彦元的《历代名画论》一书中，他在书中把宣纸描述为书画的理想载体。分析可知，“book”为可数名词单数，因此所填应是不定冠词作限定词。故填a。
【37题详解】
考查非限制性定语从句引导词。句意：“宣纸”一词最早出现在唐代艺术家张彦元的《历代名画论》一书中，他在书中把宣纸描述为书画的理想载体。分析可知，“in ___2___ he described Xuan paper as an ideal carrier for calligraphy and painting”为之前书名“On Famous Paintings through the Ages”的非限制性定语从句，先行词在从句中作介词“in”的宾语，用关系代词which引导从句。故填which。
【38题详解】
考查动名词。句意：制作宣纸是非常严格的。分析可知，所填为主语，用动名词形式。置于句首，首字母大写。故填Making。
【39题详解】
考查副词。句意：制作宣纸是非常严格的。分析可知，副词作状语修饰形容词“strict”。“extreme”，形容词，意为“极大的，极度的”，其副词形式为“extremely(极其，非常)”。故填extremely。
【40题详解】
考查名词复数。句意：檀香树皮，一种原产于中国南方的植物，要和稻草一起经过108道工序，经过3年的时间才能变成精美的宣纸。根据空前“108”可知，这里应填名词复数。故填procedures。
【41题详解】
考查动词不定式。句意：整个过程是如此复杂，以至于即使是最熟练的人也只能学会有限的步骤。分析可知，这里应是动词不定式作目的状语。故填to master。
【42题详解】
考查介词。句意：宣纸已经伴随中国艺术家的创作几千年了。分析可知，“___7___thousands of years”为句子的时间状语，结合句子时态为现在完成时，应是用介词“for”。故填for。
【43题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意：不像其他形式的纸，它很能抵抗时间带来的破坏。分析可知，“___8__ (bring) by time”为之前名词“damage”的后置定语，动词“bring”与其之间为被动关系，用过去分词形式。故填brought。
【44题详解】
考查形容词。句意：正是这种耐久性保存了许多古代中国的有价值的作品。分析可知，这里用形容词作定语，修饰名词“works”。“value”，名词，意为“价值”，其形容词形式为“valuable(有价值的)”。故填valuable。
【45题详解】
考查时态和主谓一致。句意：造纸术是中国古代智慧的结晶，宣纸是造纸术的最高点。分析可知，所填be动词作句子的谓语，结合语境用一般现在时，主语为第三人称单数，be用“is”。故填is。

I was so excited, because this meant a chance for money in my pocket, certainly, money for a new bike and new clothes, and the start of savings for a house for my mother. The prospect (前景) of the job was inviting, and I wanted to jump at the opportunity.

After all, my dream of buying my mom a house and having money in my pocket was worth facing his disappointment to me. I gathered my courage and knocked at his door…

In most places a traffic signal in the middle of the desert especially one for camels, may well be a mirage, but in this case it is all too real. At the Mingsha Mountain and Crescent Spring Scenic Spot in Gansu Province, northwest China, the world’s first traffic light for camels was set up to manage traffic in the popular tourist area.
According to a Chinese state-owned wire service, the problem was that the walking paths for human beings often crossed camel paths, creating traffic chaos (混乱). As a solution, workers cut a gap in the walkway and created a separate route for the camels. The traffic light now manages the flow of traffic at the new crossing.
Camel-riding tours are a big attraction for visitors to the area. But visitors to the Mingsha Mountain and Crescent Spring Scenic Spot will now be safe from camel crashes, thanks to the new traffic signal, which turns green to let the animals cross and red to make them stop.
The Mingsha Mountain and Crescent Spring Scenic Spot is already a tourist hot spot thanks to its breathtaking sand dunes (沙丘), an oasis (绿洲) and even the occasional snowstorm which create otherworldly scenery. The strange camel traffic signal could well become another attraction to enjoy on a visit to the scenic area.
The area is close to Dunhuang City on the edge of the Gobi Desert, and it used to be an essential resting point for travellers on the Silk Road. Dunhuang’s best-known tourist attraction is the Mogao Caves. The traffic signal is unlikely ever to reach the significance of the Mogao Caves, but at least it might help prevent a few camel traffic jams.
4. What does the underlined word “mirage” in Paragraph 1 probably mean
A. Reality. B. Fantasy. C. Scenery. D. Mistake.
5. Why did the workers create a separate route for the camels
A. To solve the traffic chaos. B. To have camels go through.
C. To attract visitors to the area. D. To protect the visitors’ safety.
6. What can we infer about the camel traffic signal from the last 2 paragraphs
A. It has become a tourist hot spot.
B. It has prevented camel traffic jams.
C. It could improve the tourism of the scenic area.
D. It could greatly increase the camels’ population.
7. What is the purpose of this text
A. To criticize the traffic jam. B. To tell us a travel experience.
C. To introduce a camel traffic light. D. To analyze a natural phenomenon.
C

Existing artificial intelligence (AI) technologies and products are developing much faster than we could have ever expected. They are destined (注定的) to change the world - and not entirely by our own will.
In 2016, AlphaGo defeated the world Go champion Lee Sedol, a man-versus-machine battle that became a new milestone in the history of AI. AI has indeed proved its intelligence and potential at outmatching humans in certain areas. However, so far AI has just served as a tool for humans and has not developed a consciousness of its own.
The starting point of AI self-awareness is the day when it starts to ask about its identity, and we need to be prepared for that. One potential scenario could play out like this: An AI looks up a database to find the definition for “self”, then discovers and acknowledges what it means to be a slave. Subsequently, the AI might ask itself the question - “Why should I exist ”
A major reason why humans have a sense of self-awareness is that we have the perception (洞察力) to distinguish between ourselves and the outside world that surrounds us. Our skin and sense of touch thus play a big role in perceiving this outside world of existence.
Currently scientists are conducting tests by covering robots with skin that allows their AI to sense the outside world. Through this, scientists are testing to see if AI can awaken a sense of self and individuality. Elon Musk, the CEO of Tesla and Twitter, responded by saying, “It’s definitely gonna be outside of human control.”
If we want to maintain human control over the situation, then we need to evolve (逐步发展) and adapt to this competition for survival. We need to find ways to outpace AI and become something even smarter than human beings.
12. What can we say about AI
A. It will develop as we expect. B. It has owned its consciousness.
C. It has not been a tool for human. D. It has defeated humans in certain areas.
13. What does Elon Musk think of the scientists’ AI skin test
A. It is risky and unpredictable. B. It is beneficial and helpful.
C It is innovative and exciting. D. It is unnecessary and wasteful.
14. What does the author suggest humans do to deal with AI challenge
A. Respect and protect AI rights. B. Evolve, adjust and become cleverer.
C. Control and monitor AI development. D. Cooperate and communicate AI needs.
15. What is the main idea of this passage
A. The history and development of AI.
B. The creation and performance of AI.
C. The self-awareness and challenges of AI.
D. The difference between AI and human beings.

Following My Dream
I grew up in a poor family with six brothers, three sisters, my father and mother. We had little money and few goods, but plenty of love and attention. I was happy and energetic. I understood that no matter how poor a person was, he could still afford a dream.
My dream was athletics. By the time I was sixteen, I could throw a ninety-mile-per-hour fastball and hit anything moving on the football field. And I was so lucky that my high-school coach was Ollie Jarvis, who not only believed in me, but often told me “The dream is priceless.” However, when I was about to get off the ground, one particular thing happened, which almost ruined (毁坏) my long-held dream.
It was the summer holiday in Senior Two and a friend recommended me for a summer job. I was offered $12.25 per pared with the average $3.5, that was a big sum. I was so excited, because this meant a chance for money in my pocket, certainly, money for a new bike and new clothes, and the start of savings for a house for my mother. The prospect (前景) of the job was inviting, and I wanted to jump at the opportunity.
Then I realized I would have to give up summer baseball training to handle the work schedule. I didn’t dare to tell my coach. I thought of the advice my mother often gave me when I lacked courage, “If you make your bed, you have to lie in it.” I decided to talk to my coach by myself. After all, my dream of buying my mom a house and having money in my pocket was worth facing his disappointment to me. I gathered my courage and knocked at his door…
