When I was a small boy, I traveled from central Massachusetts to western New York, crossing the river at
Albany, and going the rest of the way by canal. On the canal boat a kindly gentleman was talking to me one day, and
I mentioned the fact that I had crossed the Connecticut River at Albany. How I got it in my head that it was the
Connecticut River, I do not know, for I knew my geography very well then; but in some unaccountable way I had it
fixed in my mind that the river at Albany was the Connecticut, and I called it so.
“Why,” said the gentleman, “that is the Hudson River.”
“Oh, no, sir!” I replied, politely but firmly. “You’re mistaken. That is the Connecticut River.”
The gentleman smiled and said no more. I was not much in the habit, I think, of contradicting my elders; but in
this matter I was perfectly sure that I was right, and so I thought it my duty to correct the gentleman’s geography. I
felt rather sorry for him that he should be so ignorant. One day, after I reached home, I was looking over my route on
the map, and look! There was Albany standing on the Hudson River, a hundred miles from the Connecticut.
Then I did not feel half so sorry for the gentleman’s ignorance as I did for my own. I never told anybody that
story until I wrote it down on these pages the other day;but I have thought of it a thousand times, and always with a
blush for my boldness. Nor was it the only time that I was perfectly sure of things that really were not so. It is hard
for a boy to learn that he may be mistaken; but unless he is a fool, he learns it after a while. The sooner he finds it
out, the better for him.
25. How did the author get the idea that the river at Albany was the Connecticut?
A. He had read a magazine about it.
B. His father had had it fixed in his mind.
C. He had learned it from his geography class.
D. He had it fixed in his mind without any reason.
26. What do we know about the author from the passage?
A. He enjoyed contradicting other people.
B. He was very ashamed of his ignorance.
C. That was the only time his overconfidence led to his mistakes.
D. He didn’t realize his mistake until the gentleman corrected him kindly.
27. What is the idea the author wants to convey?
A. With age comes wisdom. B. Barking dogs seldom bite.
C. A bad workman quarrels with his tools. D. The good seaman is known in bad weather.
C
The early parks in the American West had been established primarily to protect scenic wonders, splendors of
soaring rock and free-flowing water and perennial (终年不断的) ice, severe places that offered little possibility for
economic exploitation — except maybe in the form of tourism. That perceived dearth of business opportunity, plus
the idea that America’s natural “cathedrals” should equal the cathedrals and monuments of old Europe, made
creating parks easier than it would be later. Another factor was the negative example of Niagara Falls, where the best
overlooks had been bought up and fenced by private operators, turning a national icon into a cheap, for-profit peep
show. Heaven forbid that should happen to Old Faithful or the Yosemite Valley. Protection of living creatures — the
American bison in Yellowstone, the gigantic Sierra redwoods later known as sequoias — became part of the idea too.
But it wasn’t until 1947 that any U. S. national park was approved largely for the protection of wildlife. That was
Everglades National Park, a vast wetland in Florida, lacking mountains or canyons but full of birds and alligators.
Since then, our national parks have gradually taken on the high purpose of preserving nature’s diversity —
native animals and flora, ecological processes, free-flowing waters, geology in its raw eloquence (雄辩)—as
examples of Earth’s interactive complexity, not just as scenic wonderlands. Now they teach us as well as delight us.
They inspire active curiosity as well as passive awe. They help us imagine what the American landscape and its
resident creatures looked like before railroads and automobiles and motels existed. Repeat: They help us imagine.
They carry a glimpse of the past into the present and — if our resolution holds and our better wisdom prevails (战胜)
— they will carry that into the future.
28. What was the purpose of the early parks established in the American West?
A. Wildlife protection. B. Economic exploitation.
C. To protect nature’s diversity. D. To preserve the scenic wonderlands.
29. Which of the following can replace the underlined word “dearth” in Paragraph 1?
A. benefit B. lack C. exploration D. operation
30. What happened to Niagara Falls?
A. It was turned into a national icon.
B. It was overlooked by the government.
C. It was well preserved by the local government.
D. It was used to make money by private operators.
31. What can we infer from the passage?
A. With imagination, we can catch a glimpse of the future.
B. Everglades National Park is noted for its mountains and canyons.
C. Nature can serve as a great source of inspiration for human beings.
D. Modem inventions like automobiles do damage to the environment.
D
Revisiting a favorite children’s book packs a powerful emotional hit. For many mothers and fathers, sharing the
books their parents read to them with their own kids, decades later, is one of the highlights of the early years. But
oftentimes stories and illustrations that seemed benign (温和) in one era become problematic as social customs
change.
In his new book, Was the Cat in the Hat Black? The Hidden Racism of Children’s Literature, and the Need for
Diverse Books, Philip Nel studies the paradox (悖论) of stories that are meant to care for and protect but can also do
harm. An English professor at Kansas State University, Nel has probed racism in kids, books in his classes and in
previous books, and he uses this volume to highlight how dozens of beloved picture and chapter books leave
negative messages in children’s minds. “No one wants to admit to enjoying something or liking something that
maintain racial stereotypes. But we do, because a book can be beautiful and racist, a book can be a classic and racist,
a book can be really pleasurable and also really racist.” For instance, one of Nel’s personal favorites, Charlie and the
Chocolate Factory, has a big problem in the Oompa Loompas. The characters, which were described in early editions
as African pygmies (矮人), are portrayed as happy slaves, content to leave their native land behind and toil in a
factory. Especially for children who are descendants of slaves, such messages can have a harmful effect on how they
interpret their value in the world.
“So should parents avoid reading offensive classics to their children? I would respect the parent who made that
choice,” Nel says. But on the other hand, “There’s also a reason to read them with children, because racism exists in
the world. Children are going to encounter it, and a safer way to learn how to encounter it is via fiction. If you’re
reading a racist children’s book with a child, you can help them read it critically, you can help them learn that it’s
okay to be angry at a book.”
32. What is the current situation when parents share the books they ever read in their childhood?
A. The stories are beneficial to the development of kids.
B. Some contents of the books are involved in some social problems.
C. Sharing books with children has caused some controversy in society.
D. The contents of the stories aren’t attached importance to for the growth of the kids.
33. What is the exact meaning of the sentence underlined in Paragraph 2?
A. It is unavoidable to spot racism in a book.
B. Some people to some degree support a book which is racist.
C. Many people still enjoy a book for the bright points in it although it is racist.
D. We think some books are beautiful, classic and joyful and other books are racist.
34. What is Philip Nel’s attitude to reading a racist children’s book with kids?
A. Supportive. B. Negative.
C. Indifferent. D. Neutral.
35. What is the best title of the passage?
A. Racism Should Be Hidden
B. Anti-racism in Kids’ Storybooks
C. Racism Does Harm to Children’s Growth
D. The Hidden (and not-so-hidden) Racism in Kids’ Lit

Drug-free Treatments Backed by Science
Many people with depression find relief without prescription drugs. 36 . Here’s what the research
recommends.
Exercise
One of the most-studied natural approaches to treating depression, regular physical activity may lift mood in
part by increasing certain neurotransmitters. 37 . “In my experience, the last thing depressed people want to do is
move,” says Dr. Andrew Weil, founder of the University of Arizona Center for Integrative Medicine. “But it has a
striking effect.”
Plus, it’s free.
Cognitive-behavioral therapy
CBT, a type of talk therapy, focuses on changing negative thought patterns, and then learning how to home in
on specific problems and find new ways to approach them. It typically lasts for 10 to 20 sessions. Some studies have
shown it to be as effective as medication. 38
People with depression often withdraw from the world, and this therapy seeks to bring them back in. Treatment
involves helping people identify activities that add meaning to their life, like reading, volunteering or hanging out
with friends, and encourages them to do these things without waiting for their mood to lift first. In a recent study
published in the Lancet, this kind of therapy was shown to be as effective as CBT. 39 .
Mindfulness training
“ 40 , and if you have no training in getting your attention away from them, you’re helpless,” says Weil.
One such program, an eight-week small-group treatment called mindfulness-based cognitive therapy, trains people to
be aware of the present moment through mindfulness practices like gentle yoga and daily meditation (冥想). It was
shown in a 2016 study in JAMA Psychiatry to help people with recurrent depression avoid relapses (复发) even
better than antidepressants.
A. Behavioral-activation therapy
B. Communication with more people
C. Thoughts and images are often the source of sadness and fear
D. It’s thought to help normalize brain roundabout involved in depression
E. And it costs much less, because practitioners (执业医师) don’t need as much training
F. These methods have all been scientifically proven to help ease symptoms of depression
G. Of course, embracing an exercise habit isn’t easy for most people — especially those with depression

Teaching is challenging and teaching college is often a mixed bag. Sometimes my class feels more like a
cafeteria, where students come and go, often in the middle of my 41 . College seems to them like merely a
continuation of high school, 42 the sense of newness that often drives 43 and achievement.
But there is a category of students that gives everyone reasons for 44 . Those so-called “nontraditional

student. She said, “Will you offer me another chance?” 54 at losing her, I acted quickly to 55 her concern.
“I’ll see you next class.” I said.
Natalie turned out to be a vital and 56 student. She commuted 50 miles each day to get to school and
never missed a class. Besides, she was enthusiastic about helping my younger students. 57 , these older students
have an advantage over them. It 58 the width and depth of their path of life. After getting over numerous

Dear Susan,
Thank you for your invitation to see the late Hollywood blockbuster this evening. Much for my regret, I can’t
go along with you, due to a sudden illness what fell upon me a few days ago.
I have caught a serious cold with a continuous fever last week and the doctor asked me to stay in the bed for a
week since I was very weak and the weather was so cold. I think I can recover after these days, but things go
contrary to my wishes. However, I couldn’t keep the appointment. I feel really sorry for not be able to meet you at
the cinema and the convenience it would bring to you. I hope we can arrange other time afterwards. If so, please
don’t hesitate drop me a line about your preferable date. I do long for a pleasant time with you.
Hope you can understand my situation and accept my apology.
Yours faithfully,
Lily

When I was a small boy, I traveled from central Massachusetts to western New York, crossing the river at
Albany, and going the rest of the way by canal. On the canal boat a kindly gentleman was talking to me one day, and
I mentioned the fact that I had crossed the Connecticut River at Albany. How I got it in my head that it was the
Connecticut River, I do not know, for I knew my geography very well then; but in some unaccountable way I had it
fixed in my mind that the river at Albany was the Connecticut, and I called it so.
“Why,” said the gentleman, “that is the Hudson River.”
“Oh, no, sir!” I replied, politely but firmly. “You’re mistaken. That is the Connecticut River.”
The gentleman smiled and said no more. I was not much in the habit, I think, of contradicting my elders; but in
this matter I was perfectly sure that I was right, and so I thought it my duty to correct the gentleman’s geography. I
felt rather sorry for him that he should be so ignorant. One day, after I reached home, I was looking over my route on
the map, and look! There was Albany standing on the Hudson River, a hundred miles from the Connecticut.
Then I did not feel half so sorry for the gentleman’s ignorance as I did for my own. I never told anybody that
story until I wrote it down on these pages the other day;but I have thought of it a thousand times, and always with a
blush for my boldness. Nor was it the only time that I was perfectly sure of things that really were not so. It is hard
for a boy to learn that he may be mistaken; but unless he is a fool, he learns it after a while. The sooner he finds it
out, the better for him.
25. How did the author get the idea that the river at Albany was the Connecticut?
A. He had read a magazine about it.
B. His father had had it fixed in his mind.
C. He had learned it from his geography class.

27. What is the idea the author wants to convey?
A. With age comes wisdom. B. Barking dogs seldom bite.
C. A bad workman quarrels with his tools. D. The good seaman is known in bad weather.
C
The early parks in the American West had been established primarily to protect scenic wonders, splendors of
soaring rock and free-flowing water and perennial (终年不断的) ice, severe places that offered little possibility for
economic exploitation — except maybe in the form of tourism. That perceived dearth of business opportunity, plus
the idea that America’s natural “cathedrals” should equal the cathedrals and monuments of old Europe, made
creating parks easier than it would be later. Another factor was the negative example of Niagara Falls, where the best
overlooks had been bought up and fenced by private operators, turning a national icon into a cheap, for-profit peep
show. Heaven forbid that should happen to Old Faithful or the Yosemite Valley. Protection of living creatures — the
American bison in Yellowstone, the gigantic Sierra redwoods later known as sequoias — became part of the idea too.
But it wasn’t until 1947 that any U. S. national park was approved largely for the protection of wildlife. That was
Everglades National Park, a vast wetland in Florida, lacking mountains or canyons but full of birds and alligators.
Since then, our national parks have gradually taken on the high purpose of preserving nature’s diversity —
native animals and flora, ecological processes, free-flowing waters, geology in its raw eloquence (雄辩)—as
examples of Earth’s interactive complexity, not just as scenic wonderlands. Now they teach us as well as delight us.
They inspire active curiosity as well as passive awe. They help us imagine what the American landscape and its
resident creatures looked like before railroads and automobiles and motels existed. Repeat: They help us imagine.
They carry a glimpse of the past into the present and — if our resolution holds and our better wisdom prevails (战胜)
— they will carry that into the future.
28. What was the purpose of the early parks established in the American West?
A. Wildlife protection. B. Economic exploitation.
C. To protect nature’s diversity. D. To preserve the scenic wonderlands.
29. Which of the following can replace the underlined word “dearth” in Paragraph 1?
A. benefit B. lack C. exploration D. operation
30. What happened to Niagara Falls?
A. It was turned into a national icon.
B. It was overlooked by the government.
C. It was well preserved by the local government.
D. It was used to make money by private operators.
31. What can we infer from the passage?
A. With imagination, we can catch a glimpse of the future.
B. Everglades National Park is noted for its mountains and canyons.
C. Nature can serve as a great source of inspiration for human beings.
D. Modem inventions like automobiles do damage to the environment.
D
Revisiting a favorite children’s book packs a powerful emotional hit. For many mothers and fathers, sharing the
books their parents read to them with their own kids, decades later, is one of the highlights of the early years. But
oftentimes stories and illustrations that seemed benign (温和) in one era become problematic as social customs
change.
In his new book, Was the Cat in the Hat Black? The Hidden Racism of Children’s Literature, and the Need for
Diverse Books, Philip Nel studies the paradox (悖论) of stories that are meant to care for and protect but can also do
harm. An English professor at Kansas State University, Nel has probed racism in kids, books in his classes and in
previous books, and he uses this volume to highlight how dozens of beloved picture and chapter books leave
negative messages in children’s minds. “No one wants to admit to enjoying something or liking something that
maintain racial stereotypes. But we do, because a book can be beautiful and racist, a book can be a classic and racist,
a book can be really pleasurable and also really racist.” For instance, one of Nel’s personal favorites, Charlie and the
Chocolate Factory, has a big problem in the Oompa Loompas. The characters, which were described in early editions
as African pygmies (矮人), are portrayed as happy slaves, content to leave their native land behind and toil in a
factory. Especially for children who are descendants of slaves, such messages can have a harmful effect on how they
interpret their value in the world.
“So should parents avoid reading offensive classics to their children? I would respect the parent who made that
choice,” Nel says. But on the other hand, “There’s also a reason to read them with children, because racism exists in
the world. Children are going to encounter it, and a safer way to learn how to encounter it is via fiction. If you’re
reading a racist children’s book with a child, you can help them read it critically, you can help them learn that it’s
okay to be angry at a book.”
32. What is the current situation when parents share the books they ever read in their childhood?
A. The stories are beneficial to the development of kids.
B. Some contents of the books are involved in some social problems.
C. Sharing books with children has caused some controversy in society.
D. The contents of the stories aren’t attached importance to for the growth of the kids.
33. What is the exact meaning of the sentence underlined in Paragraph 2?
A. It is unavoidable to spot racism in a book.
B. Some people to some degree support a book which is racist.
C. Many people still enjoy a book for the bright points in it although it is racist.
D. We think some books are beautiful, classic and joyful and other books are racist.
34. What is Philip Nel’s attitude to reading a racist children’s book with kids?
A. Supportive. B. Negative.
C. Indifferent. D. Neutral.
35. What is the best title of the passage?
A. Racism Should Be Hidden
B. Anti-racism in Kids’ Storybooks
C. Racism Does Harm to Children’s Growth
D. The Hidden (and not-so-hidden) Racism in Kids’ Lit

Drug-free Treatments Backed by Science
Many people with depression find relief without prescription drugs. 36 . Here’s what the research
recommends.
Exercise
One of the most-studied natural approaches to treating depression, regular physical activity may lift mood in
part by increasing certain neurotransmitters. 37 . “In my experience, the last thing depressed people want to do is
move,” says Dr. Andrew Weil, founder of the University of Arizona Center for Integrative Medicine. “But it has a
striking effect.”
Plus, it’s free.
Cognitive-behavioral therapy
CBT, a type of talk therapy, focuses on changing negative thought patterns, and then learning how to home in
on specific problems and find new ways to approach them. It typically lasts for 10 to 20 sessions. Some studies have
shown it to be as effective as medication. 38
People with depression often withdraw from the world, and this therapy seeks to bring them back in. Treatment
involves helping people identify activities that add meaning to their life, like reading, volunteering or hanging out
with friends, and encourages them to do these things without waiting for their mood to lift first. In a recent study
published in the Lancet, this kind of therapy was shown to be as effective as CBT. 39 .
Mindfulness training
“ 40 , and if you have no training in getting your attention away from them, you’re helpless,” says Weil.
One such program, an eight-week small-group treatment called mindfulness-based cognitive therapy, trains people to
be aware of the present moment through mindfulness practices like gentle yoga and daily meditation (冥想). It was
shown in a 2016 study in JAMA Psychiatry to help people with recurrent depression avoid relapses (复发) even
better than antidepressants.
A. Behavioral-activation therapy
B. Communication with more people
C. Thoughts and images are often the source of sadness and fear
D. It’s thought to help normalize brain roundabout involved in depression
E. And it costs much less, because practitioners (执业医师) don’t need as much training
F. These methods have all been scientifically proven to help ease symptoms of depression
G. Of course, embracing an exercise habit isn’t easy for most people — especially those with depression

Dear Susan,
Thank you for your invitation to see the late Hollywood blockbuster this evening. Much for my regret, I can’t
go along with you, due to a sudden illness what fell upon me a few days ago.
I have caught a serious cold with a continuous fever last week and the doctor asked me to stay in the bed for a
week since I was very weak and the weather was so cold. I think I can recover after these days, but things go
contrary to my wishes. However, I couldn’t keep the appointment. I feel really sorry for not be able to meet you at
the cinema and the convenience it would bring to you. I hope we can arrange other time afterwards. If so, please
don’t hesitate drop me a line about your preferable date. I do long for a pleasant time with you.
Hope you can understand my situation and accept my apology.
Yours faithfully,
Lily
