Grammar and Vocabulary
Section A
Directions:
After reading the passage below, fill
in the blanks to make the passage coherent and
grammatically
correct. For the blanks
with a given word, fill in each blank with the
proper form of the given word; for the other
blanks, use one word that best fits
each blank.
Sneakers
(
运动鞋
) Made from
Old Chewing Gum
Dutch fashion and shoe
label Explicit Wear is hoping to solve one of
life’s sticky situations—
the annoyance
of
stepping in waste chewing gum on the
pavement
—while helping to keep
Amsterdam’s city streets clean. The brand
has partnered with local marketing
organization Iamsterdam and sustainability firm
Gumdrop (21) (create) a
limited
edition sneaker
for adults made from
recycled gum collected from the city’s
pavements.
Chewing gum causes an
incredibly serious ecological problem,(22)
it is made from plastics that do not
biodegrade
(
生物降解
). It’s also the second
(23)
(common) form of roadside litter, after
cigarette ends. An
incredible 3.3
million pounds of gum are incorrectly thrown away
on the sidewalks each year, (24) (cost) the
city millions of dollars to clean up.
Gumdrop plans to collect waste gum from the
streets of Amsterdam, clean them,
and
turn them into Gum-Tec, the material that forms
the base of the shoe.
The waste gum
will be put to good use to make stylish kicks,
(25) will also raise awareness for the
anti-
littering cause. (26)
(price) at around $$332, the shoes will come into
the market sometime next
month.
Available for preorder now, the new
Gumshoe sneakers
—
offered in
both a bubblegum pink and a black/red
colorway
—
(27)
(feature)
long-lasting
rubber
outsoles
(
鞋子外底
) shaped
from
recyclable
compounds
produced by
Gumdrop, 20 percent of which are made from gum.
Nearly 2.2 pounds of gum (28)
(use) in every four pairs of shoes. A map of
Amsterdam is made into the
bottom
of
the
soles
to
remind
people
of
the
littering
problem.
Even
better,
the
sneakers
actually
still
smell
like
bubblegum, (29) the annoying
stickiness. Just as good as any sneaker with a
rubber sole, the Gumshoes help
get
chewing gum off our streets and keep the
dangerously non-biodegradable substance out of our
eco-system.

Reading Comprehension
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.
High school students who take music
courses score significantly better on math,
science and English exams
than their
non-musical peers, according to a new study
published in the Journal of Educational
Psychology.
School administrators
needing to cut budgets often look first to music
courses, because the general belief is
that students who devote time to music
rather than math, science and English, will 41
in those
disciplines.
“Our
research proved this belief
42
and found the more the students engage with music,
the better they
do
in
those
subjects,”
said
UBC
(University
of
British
Columbia)
education
professor
and
the
study’s
principal
investigator,
Peter
Gouzouasis.
“The
students
who
learned
to
play
a
musical
instrument
in
elementary
and
43
playing in high school not only score
significantly higher, but were about one academic
year ahead of their non-
music peers
with regard to their English, mathematics and
science skills, as measured by their exam grades,
4
4
their
socioeconomic
background,
race,
previous
learning
in
mathematics
and
English,
and
gender.”
Gouzouasis and his team
45
data from all
students in public schools in British Columbia who
finished
Grade 12 between 2012 and
2015. The data
46 , made up of
more than 112,000 students, included those who
completed
at
least
one
standardized
exam
for
math,
science
and
English.
Students
who
studied
at
least
one
instrumental music
course in the regular curriculum counted as
students 47 music.
The
researchers
found
the
48
relationships
between
music
education
and
academic
achievement
were
more pronounced for those who took
instrumental music rather than
vocal
(
发声的
) music. The
findings suggest
skills learned in
instrumental music 49
very broadly
to the students’ learning in
school.
“Learning to play a
musical instrument and playing in a band is
very
50
,” said the
study’s
co-investigator
Martin Guhn, an assistant professor in
UBC’s school of population and public
health. “A student has to learn to
read
musical notes, develop eye-hand-mind
coordination
(
协调
), develop
keen listening skills, develop 51 skills
for playing in a band and develop
discipline to practice. All those learning
experiences, and more, play a role in
52
the
learner’s
cognitive
capacities
(
认知能力
), executive
functions, and motivation to learn in
school.”
The
researchers
hope
that
their
findings
will
be
brought
to
the
53
of
students,
parents,
teachers
and
administrative decision-
makers in education, as many school districts over
the years have emphasized mathematics
and literacy 54 other areas of
learning, particularly music.
“However, the
amusing aspect is that
55 education
can be the very thing that
improves all-
around academic
achievement,” said
Gouzouasis.

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 just
read.
(A)
A
growing
number
of
American
states
a
re
requiring
schools
to
teach
students
“media
literacy”
skills.
California is the latest state to pass
such a requirement. Media literacy, also known as
news literacy, is the ability to
use
critical thinking skills to recognize differences
between real and
“fake”
news.
The new law requires California’s
Department of Education to provide materials
related to media literacy on
its
website. Its goal is to give students a set of
effective tools to “enable them to make
informed
decisions”.
The
media literacy efforts were based on a Stanford
University study from 2016. It found that 80
percent of
U.S. middle school students
failed to recognize an advertisement that looked
like a real news story. The researchers
also found that high school students
had trouble telling the difference between a real
and a fake news
study called for more
efforts to help students recognize false
information on the internet. It said that young
people
also need the skills to find out
where news stories come from, and to be able to
judge the trustworthiness of sources
and writers.
Carolyn Edy is
a professor of communication at Appalachian State
University in North Carolina. She said she
has seen a clear change in her
students’ abilities to judge news sources. Edy
said that w
hen students used to read
printed newspapers, it was easier for
them to recognize fact from opinion. Now,
it’s
necessary to teach
students how
to fully examine websites.
One of Edy’s goals is to teach students
how to research the news organizations
respons
ible for the stories they
are reading. One way to do this is for
students to ask a series of questions. One example
is, “What is the overall
mission of the
organization?”
Edy
said
young
people
also
need
to
judge
whether
news
organizations
identify
any
possible
conflicts
of
interest. Another
question to ask is, “What do they do when they get
a story wrong?” Responsible and trustworthy
news organizations issue corrections if
something is falsely reported, she said.
Edy added that one good thing to come
out of the rise of misinformation and fake news is
that it has made
many people seek out
good reporting.
56.
The new law passed in California mainly
aims at
.
A. helping
students identify fake news
B.
improving students’ critical thinking
s
kills
C.
offering students real information
D.
enabling students to make quick decisions
57.
Why does the
author mention the Stanford University study?
A. To present the details of the law.
B. To provide a set of tools for the
law.
C. To show the reason behind the
law.
D. To indicate the efforts based
on the law.
58.
Which is a way suggested by Carolyn Edy
for students to judge the trustworthiness of a
news
organization?
A.
Identifying
the conflicts of interest in it.
B.
Correcting its
falsely reported news stories.
C.
Learning about
its background information.
D.
Asking a
series of questions about its news.
59.

mainly tells us that media literacy
