Directions:

grammatically correct. For the blanks

proper form of the given word; for
the
other blanks, use one word that best fits each
blank.
Time to Learn How to
Sort
Whatever we don't want- -no matter
whether it's eggshells, newspapers, soda cans or
old socks--it's. all garbage.
And
garbage goes to the garbage bin. There seems to be
(21)________ wrong with do you really know how to
throw away garbage properly?
China
(22)________ (promote) garbage sorting for over a
decade, but for the majority of the public the
concept
hasn't sunk in. Shen Zhen
issued a new regulation. It says residents will be
fined up to 100 yuan and organizations
1,000 yuan for not sorting rubbish
(23)________ specific groups.
It's
evident
that
the
government
is
determined
to
push
this
forward,
said
Zhang
Ning,
a
program
officer
(24)________ (serve) in a Beijing-based
public welfare organization. But I'm afraid the
regulation will prove to be
counter-
productive because garbage sorting has never been
achieved by merely imposing
punishments.
A
recent
survey
found
that
49.5
percent
of
the
respondents
said
they
still
don’t
know
how
to
sort
garbage,(25)________ 45.5 percent just
cant be bothered to do it. Lots of citizens
(26)________ (confuse)about what's
recyclable
and
what's
general
waste.
For
example,
it's
scarcely
known
that
tissue
is
non-recyclable
because
it's
too
moisture-prone and usually too polluted
(27)________ (recycle).
According to Zhang, 70 percent of
garbage is a (28)________ (misplace) resource. For
instance, a ton of waste
steel
can
be
refined
into
0.9
tons
of
usable
steel,
and
a
ton
of
kitchen
waste
is
able
to
produce0.3
tons
of
organic
fertilizer.
But all of this is based on the
condition (29)________ the garbage is categorized
properly. And the behavior of
households (30)________ he sorting
process initially starts- is the key. Garbage
sorting is a chain effect. Misconduct at
the very beginning will make all the
following
Garbage
sorting
is
a
complex
issue
and
takes
patience.
So
next
time
when
you
throw
away
what
is
called
garbage do it in the right
way.

Bad News for
Apple; Good News for Humanity
When Apple cut
its
revenue estimate
(
收益预期
) for the last quarter
of 2018 because of unexpectedly slow
sales of iPhones, markets trembled. The
company's share price, which had been (31)________
or months, fell by a
further 10% on
January 3rd, the day after the news came out.
Apple's suppliers
Analysts
assume
that
the
number
of
smartphones
sold
in
2018
will
be
slightly
lower
than
in
2017,
the
industry's first. ever annual decline.
All this is terrible news for investors who had
(32)________ on continued growth.
But
step back and look at the bigger picture. That
smartphone sales have peaked, and seem to be
(33)________ off at
around 1.4 billion
units a year, is good news for humanity. The
slowdown is actually the result of market
saturation (U
$$l),which
hits
Apple
the
hardest
because,
despite
a
relatively
small
market
share
(13%
of
smartphone
users),
it
captures almost all of
the industry
’
s (34)________.
But Apple
’
s pain is
humanity
’
s gain. The fact
that the benefits of
these magical
devices are now so widely (35)________ is
something to be celebrated.
Now
many
phones
are
used
for
longer
than
three
years,
often
as
hand-me-
downs.
Replacement
cycles
are
lengthening as new
models offer only (36)________ improvements. So
even with flat sales, the longer(37)________
between
upgrades
mean
people
who
already
have
phones
benefit.
For
all
but
the
most
addicted
device
fans,
the
slowing pace of upgrades comes as a
welcome (38)________.
Does that mean innovation is slowing?
No. As computers become smaller, still more
(39)________ and closer
to people's
bodies, many technicians expect that wearable
devices, from smart watches to AR headsets, will
be the
next big thing. Even so, finding
another product with the scope of the smartphone
is a tall order. The smartphone.
holds
its (40)________ as the device that will make
computing and communications worldwide. The recent
slowing of
smartphone
sales
is
bad
news
for
the
industry,
for
the
rest
of
humanity
it
is
a
welcome
sign
that
a
transformative technology
has become almost universal.

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.
Now
,
U.?.
researchers
have
identified
a
new
way
to
treat
people
infected
with
tuberculosis
(
肺结核
)before
they get sick.
Tuberculosis
is
one
of
the
world's
most
(41)________
health
threats.
The
World
Health
Organization
says
tuberculosis kills nearly two million
people each year. Another two billion are
(42)________ : they are infected, but
don't
have
symptoms
of
the
disease.
Those
at
highest
risk
can
take
medicine,
but
Vanderbilt
University
researcher
Timothy Sterling says not everyone
(43)________ with the treatment, which is a daily
dose of
isoniazid
(
异烟肼，
抗结
核药
)
for
nine
months.
So although
the
medication
is
highly
effective
if
people
take
all
of
their
medication,
many
people do not take all their medication
and therefore the effectiveness of the treatment
plan is (44)________. As a(n)
(45)________,
Sterling
and
his
colleagues(46)
________
??оn?аz?d
with
another
drug,
rifapentine
(
利福喷汀
).
The
combination
was
taken
weekly,
not
daily,
for
just
three
months.
And
the
results
of
this
study
showed
that
the new
treatment
plan
---the
three
months
of
isoniazid
and
rifapentine
---
was
as
effective
as
the
nine-month
isoniazid
treatment plan.
(47)________, the short-course, three-month
treatment plan had higher treatment completion
rates and
was also well (48)________.
There
was
some
other
difference.
The
two-drug,
combination
treatment
was
administered
as
directly
(49)________therapy. That means the
patients took their medicine in the presence of a
health care worker,to ensure
that they
followed the treatment plan. This was a large
study, involving 7,500 participants in North
America, Spain,
and
Brazil.
Sterling
(50)________
that
most
of
the
people
in
this
study
were
results
might
be
(51)________ for HIV-
positive people. A recent study in South Africa
indicated that the combination therapy works
well in people infected with HIV as
well as tuberculosis, but the study was too small
to be (52)________
Timothy Sterling's research, published
in The New England Journal of Medicine, has been
(53)________ by
the
U.S.
Centers
for
Disease
Control
and
Prevention,
the
CDC.
The
government
health
agency
recommends
the
12-dose weekly
combination treatment as an equal alternative to
the 270-dose daily treatment plan that has been
the
(54)________ therapy. But because
of possible (55)________ issues, the CDC still
recommends the daily treatment
plan for
HIV-positive patients who are taking
antiretroviral drugs or women who are pregnant.
Also because of a lack.
of data, the
CDC says children under age 12 should stay with
the nine-month daily treatment.

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)
If a person who lived 200 years ago was
treated for a
seizure
(
癫痫
) today,
they would be surprised by the
treatment's
freshness.
That's
because
doctors
in
the
1800s
were
influenced
more
by
original
medical
beliefs
than
science.
Rather than thinking the
brain caused seizures, people in the 1800s still
thought they were the result of strange
forces. They associated seizures with
the work of evil spirits. Others felt that the
seizures had a cosmic or lunar cause.
They believed that the cycles of the
moon and stars could make someone have a seizure.
During a
process to treat a patient who has seizures,
doctors would force the patient to pray for the
grace of the
