BWhenever we see a button on a doorbell or on a remote, we may press it. This is true in most cases. But some buttons are actually fake(假的), like the “close” button on an elevatorMany people are in the habit of pressing the “close” button because they dont have the patience to wait for the elevator doors to shut. But according to experts, the buttons are a complete trickthe doors will not close any faster however hard you press.It started in the 1990s when the Americans with Disabilities Act was passed, making sure that all elevators stayed open long enough so that people with disabilities could enter. Only firefighters and maintenance workers(維修工) can use the buttons to speed up the door-closing process if they have a code or special keys. But to normal elevator riders, the buttons arent completely useless.According to psychologists, fake buttons can actually make you feel better by offering you a sense of control. Experts have showed that a lot of buttons that dont do anything exist in our lives for this same purpose. For example, pedestrian crosswalk buttons dont live up to their names. Pressing them used to help make the traffic signals change faster, but that was before computer-controlled traffic signals were introduced.But psychologists found it interesting that even when people are aware of these little “white lies”. They still continue to push fake buttons because as long as the doors eventually close, it is considered to be worth the effort.That habit is here to stay, John Kounios, a psychology professor at Drexel University in the US, told The New York Times. “After all, Ive got nothing else to do while waiting. So why not try the chance?”25. The author writes the text to_.A. inform readers of kinds of fake buttonB. analyze what roles fake buttons playC. explore different ways to push buttonsD. explain why fake buttons were introduced26. The underlined “for this same purpose” in Paragraph 4 probably refers to_.A. making people more patientB. improving peoples bad moodC. helping people build up confidenceD. offering people a sense of control27. What can we know from John Kounios words?A. Pressing fake buttons is of no meaning at all.B. People dont know that what they press is fake.C. Some people press fake buttons just to kill time.D. People are supposed to quit pressing fake buttons.CHave you ever run into a careless cell phone user on the street? Perhaps they were busy talking, texting or checking updates on WeChat without looking at what was going on around them. As the number of this new “species” of human has kept rising, they have been given a new name phubbers（低頭族）.Recently, a cartoon created by students from China Central Academy of Fine Arts put this group of people under the spotlight. In the short film, phubbers with various social identities bury themselves in their phones. A doctor plays with his cell phone while letting his patient die, a pretty woman takes selfie（自拍照）in front of a car accident site, and a father loses his child without knowing about it while using his mobile phone. A chain of similar events eventually leads to the destruction of the world.Although the ending sounds overstated, the damage phubbing can bring is real. Your health is the first to bear the effect and result of it. “Constantly bending your head to check your cell phone could damage your neck,” Guangming Daily quoted doctors as saying. “the neck is like a rope that breaks after long-term stretching.” Also, staring at cell phones for long periods of time will damage your eyesight gradually, according to the report.But thats not all. Being a phubber could also damage your social skills and drive you away from your friends and family. At reunions with family or friends, many people tend to stick to their cell phones while others are chatting happily with each other and this creates a strange atmosphere, Qilu Evening News reported.It can also cost you your life. There have been lots of reports on phubbers who fell to their death, suffered accidents, and were robbed of their cell phones in broad daylight.28. For what purpose does the author give the example of a cartoon in Paragragh2?A. To advertise the cartoon made by students.B. To inform people of the bad effects of phubbing.C. To indicate the world will finally be destroyed by phubbers.D. To warn doctors against using cell phones while treating patients.29. Which of the following is NOT a risk a phubber may have?A. His social skills could be affected.B. He will cause the destruction of the world.C. His neck and eyesight will be gradually harmed.D. He might get separated from his friends and family.30. Which of the following may be the authors attitude towards phubbing?A. Objective. B. Supportive. C. Optimistic. D. Opposed.31. What may the passage talk about next?A. Advice on how to use a cell phone.B. People who are addicted to phubbing.C. The possible consequences of phubbing.D. Measures to reduce the risks of phubbing.DCounterfeit(假的) medicines are a widespread problem in developing countries. Like other counterfeits, they look like real products. But counterfeit drugs may contain too little or none of the active ingredients of the real thing.People do not get the medicine they need. And in some cases, counterfeits cause death. Twenty children in Bangladesh died last year after being given acetaminophen(對乙酰氨基酚).The medications contained ingredients that looked, smelled and tasted like the real thing. The medicine was produced by a local drug company that used a dangerous substitute to save money.The problem of counterfeit medicines is especially serious in Africa, Asia and Latin America. The WHO estimates that up to thirty percent of medicines on sale in many of those countries are counterfeit. The problem is less widespread among industrialized countries. The WHO says counterfeits make up less than one percent of the illegal drug market in countries like the United States, Canada, Japan and New Zealand.But the agency also says as much as fifty percent of the medicine sold on the Internet is counterfeit.Much is being done to fight counterfeit drugs. Several companies are developing ways to make counterfeits easier to identify. And there are existing methods, like a machine that can quickly identify chemicals in pills to confirm if the pills are real. Other ideas include things like special tracking codes for drug packages. People could send a text message with the code and get a message back, which proves that what they bought is listed in a database. Some drug makers and other companies put three-dimensional images called holograms(全息圖)on their products as a security device.32. Last year twenty children in Bangladesh died because of _. A. unreal drugsB. online medicinesC. acetaminophenD. unclean water33. We can draw a conclusion from the passage that_ . A.it is very cheap and convenient to buy medicines online.B. we had better not buy medicines online.C. more and more people will buy products online.D. medicine companies dont pay much attention to counterfeit drugs.34. What is the main idea of the last paragraph?A. It reveals(揭露) the reasons why counterfeit drugs are widespread.B. Special tracking codes for drug packages are used to identify counterfeits.C. It shows the danger of counterfeit drugs.D. Some measures are being taken to fight counterfeit drugs.35. Which of the following country may have serious problems of counterfeit medicines?A. Canada. B. India. C. New Zealand. D. Japan.第二節(jié)（共5小題;每小題2分，滿分10分）根據(jù)短文內(nèi)容，從短文后的選項中選出能填入空白處的最佳選項，選項中有兩項為多余選項。How to improve vocabulary fastYour vocabulary refers to the words in a language you are familiar with. We should learn some ways to expand it.Read every day. 36 . Choose reading material that is slightly above your level and keep a dictionary with you to look up words you do not know. 37 . If you do not meet with an unfamiliar word in your daily reading, use your dictionary to search for one.Learn the correct definition and pronunciation for each new word. Pronunciation is as important as definition because in order to add a word to your active vocabulary, you must be able to use it in speech.Elaborate (詳盡闡述) on the meaning of the word. If you have just learned the word “stubborn”, think about the neighbour who will not lend you his car. 38 Use your new word in speech and in writing. E-mail your sister about how your cat is stubborn about sleeping on your pillow. 39 . But the more you use it, the more fluent you will become in its use. Soon it will be a regular part of your active vocabulary.Tell everyone you are trying to increase your vocabulary. Encourage them to ask you what your latest word is. 40 .The more you explain the meaning of a word to someone, the more likely you are to remember it.A. The vocabulary can be increased.B. Find a new word every day.C. Or let them ask for the definition of a new word you have used.D. The more often you read, the faster your vocabulary can grow.E. The first time you use a new word in speech it may seem strange.F. Imagine him shaking his head, and think of him as “stubborn in his refusal”.G. Your vocabulary contains the words you understand.第三部分 英語知識運用 （共兩節(jié)，滿分45分）第一節(jié) 完形填空（共20小題；每小題1.5分，滿分30分）閱讀下面短文，從短文后各題所給的四個選項（A、B、C和D）中，選出可以填入空白處的最佳選項，并在答題卡上將該項涂黑。One day, a lovely little girl was holding two apples with both hands.

Music of this sort can arouse positive memories in peoples life, thus 63 (lift)their mood.Psychologist Adrian North from Curtin University in Australia says there 64 (existence) two groups of possible explanations for why people enjoy listening to sad music like this-one from social psychology, and the other from cognitive neuroscience(神經(jīng)
