A An advertisement in the newspaper stating that the local SPCA was promoting a campaign called “Home for Christmas,“ appealing to local residents(居民)to give their numerous older cats a chance at a forever home, made my husband and I visit the shelter. As we were chatting with the worker, an orange cat reached for my husband＇s shoulder. We took this as a sign, so Cici came to be a part of our lives. It didn＇t take her long to fit in with our life. As the weeks went by we all adapted to our routine, It soon became evident that Cici was an extremely laid-back cat and there wasn＇t much that would upset her, aside from her humans serving up a late dinner. About this time, I heard about an organization called You Are Not Alone that was looking for dogs to visit the local seniors. Although cats had never been considered as appropriate visitors, Cici was reluctantly scheduled for an interview and surprisingly she was declared fit for the program. A few days later, Cici and I arrived at the Nanaimo Seniors Village and prepared to meet a resident who wanted a visit from a cat. Joan Samuels had recently moved to the Village after giving up her home and her two pets. Understandably, she was missing them terribly and I was hoping that our visits would help with the healing of her loss. I still remember Joan＇s face when she saw Cici for the first time. It was truly love at first sight. Every Tuesday morning after that, Cici and I had the pleasure of visiting Joan. Sometimes we played cards or just chatted while the cat made herself cozy on Joan＇s bed. All our times together were so special. I must admit being part of the pet visitation program was truly a privilege. Playing a part in bringing two sweet souls together and watching them bond was truly a gift. 21. The writer got Cici from . A. An organization called You Are Not Alone R. A center called Home for Christmas C. An animal shelter called SPCA D. The Nanaimo Seniors Village 22. What does the underlined word “laid-back“ in the second paragraph most probably mean? A. easy-going B. sensitive C. smart D. wild 23.Which of the following would be the best title for this passage? A. A Programme to Care for Cats B. The Cat that Made a Difference C. The Visit that Changed My Life D. A Home for Old Cats and Seniors B Literature reflects life. So in ageing Japan there are a large number of hit books by aged authors. “Age 90: what＇s so great about it?“ is a humorous essay on the difficulties of the elderly, by Aiko Sato, who is 95. It sold one million copies in 2017, making it Japan＇s bestselling book that year. In 2018 the Akutagawa literary prize went to Chisako Wakatake, 63 at the time, for her first novel “Live by Myself”. The books talk about how to live in old age.“ Going to Die Soon“, also by Ms Uchidate, features 78-year-old Hana, a former alcohol-shop owner trying to make the most of her remaining years. The novel has been called a book for shukatsu, or preparing for death, making readers think more deeply about what it means to age. Japan＇s population has the world＇s highest percentage of over-65s. People are living longer, so many have at least 20-30 years of retirement, for much of which they are energetic. And although the Japanese have been spending less on books, that is least true for the over-60s. Lawson, a convenience-store chain, recently decided to stock books with the older generation in mind. But the wrinkly writers＇ books are attracting younger readers, too. Some are preparing for their own old age or want to understand the increasing number of old people they see around them. Others find relevance in the themes explored, such as loneliness, a problem that stretches well beyond the silver-haired. The most notable feature of the new trend is that the vast majority of authors, and main characters, are women. Especially popular, arc the ara-hun (“around-hundred“ years-old) writers like Ms Sato, whose book, readers say, helps them be more positive. Their popularity also reflects support for strong women who are passionate about their work, a phenomenon that is all too rare in Japan today. 24.“Going to Die Soon“ is a book . A. about how to stay positive in old age B. which won the Akutagawa literary prize in 2018 C. which helps people live the rest of the life to the fullest D. written by a 78-year-old Hana, an alcohol-shop owner 25. The books by aged authors are popular with younger readers because . A. young readers now have more elder relatives B. young readers face similar problems as the elderly C. young readers are worried about becoming old D. young readers are as lonely as the elderly 26. What can we learn from the passage? A. Aged writers might be more successful than younger writers. B. An aging society brings more chances for women writers. C. People have to work after their retirement in an aging society D. Ambitious career women might not be popular with the Japanese. C The AlphaGo program＇s victory is an example of how smart computers have become. But can artificial intelligence (AI) machines act ethically(合乎道德地), meaning can they be honest and fair? One example of AI is driverless cars. They are already on California roads, so it is not too soon to ask whether we can program a machine to act ethically. As driverless cars improve, they will save lives. They will make fewer mistakes than human drivers do. Sometimes, however, they will face a choice between lives. Should the cars be programmed to make a sudden turn to avoid hitting a child? What if the only risk is damage to the car itself, not to the passengers? Perhaps there will be lessons to learn from driverless cars, but they are not super-intelligent beings. Teaching ethics to a machine even more intelligent than we are will be the bigger challenge. About the same time as AlphaGo＇s victory, Microsoft＇s ＇chatbot＇ took a bad turn. The software, named Taylor, was designed to answer messages from people aged 18-24. Taylor was supposed to be able to learn from the messages she received. She was designed to slowly improve her ability to handle conversations, but some people were teaching Taylor racist ideas. When she started saying nice things about Hitler, Microsoft turned her off and deleted her ugliest messages. AlphaGo＇s victory and Taylor＇s defeat happened at about the same time. This should be a warning to us. It is one thing to use AT within a game with clear rules and clear goals. It is something very different to use AT in the real world. Eric Schmidt is one of the bosses of Google, which owns AlphoGo. He said people will be the winner, whatever the outcome. Advances in AT will make human beings smarter, more able and “just better human beings.“ 27. What＇s the second paragraph mainly about? A. Whether AI machines are capable to predict possible risks. B. What AT machines will do to save human lives. C. Whether AT machines can make ethical decisions. D. What AT machines will do to avoid damages to themselves. 28.What is said to be the bigger challenge facing humans in the AI age? A. How to prevent AT machines doing harm to humans. B. How to avoid being over-dependent on AT machines. C. How to ensure that super-intelligent Al machines act ethically. D. How to make super-intelligent AT machines share human feelings. 29. What do we learn about Microsoft＇s ‘chatbot’ Taylor? A. She could not tell good from bad. B. She could turn herself off when necessary. C. She was not made to handle new situations. D. She was good at performing routine tasks. 30. What is Eric Schmidt＇s attitude towards artificial intelligence? A. negative B. unconcerned C. positive D. doubtful 第二节(共5个小题；
每小题2分，满分10分) 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。

Why People Who Sleep Late Are Smarter Geniuses have a few things in common. Going against the grain is one of those things. Following a routine schedule is another. Above all, they sleep late. Studies have shown that people who stay up late are actually smarter and more creative. 31 They drink coffee. Being a coffee drinker has some impact on success. Coffee drinkers often take part in extra physical activity, leading to numerous health benefits. 32 Reaction time, memory and general cognitive abilities are thus improved by drinking coffee. 33 A BBC report stated that late risers are in better moods. This has something to do with the fact that early risers use more cortisol(皮质醇), which results in more muscle aches, headaches and cold symptoms. They make better use of golden time. 34 Such time-of-day variations in function are＇ not unusual. Organisms are adapted to the continual change in light and dark during a 24-hour period to reproduce faster. So when morning people are going back home to take a rest, night owls are making use of the best time of the day to equip themselves. They remain alert for longer hours. In the study, brain activity was measured for the early birds and night owls. 35 it is explained that nighttime minds have a longer circadian(生理节奏的)clock and hence can give more attention for a longer time. A. They are in better moods. B. And the latter one scored higher. C. Here are some reasons which make sense. D. Sleeping late does too much harm to our body. E. This helps the brain and body both function at a higher level. F. According to an Australian study, humans learn better in the evening. G. Coffee makes morning people up at night, while all-nighters are unaffected. 第三部分语言运用(共两节，满分30分) 第一节完形填空(共20小题；

Dannis was waiting at the airline ticket counter when he first noticed the young woman with shiny black hair pulled tightly into a knot. She wore black boots of soft leather. Uannis struggled to see her face, she was ahead of him in line, but it was not until she bought her ticket and turned to walk away that he realized her beauty, which was fair-skinned and big-eyed. She seemed aware that he was staring at her and lowered her gaze abruptly. His flight was leaving in an hour. To kill time, Dannis stepped into an airport bar and ordered a Scotch. While sipping it, he watched the flow of travelers through the terminal (航站楼)until he caught sight of the black-haired girl in the leather coat again, deep in conversation with a blonde girl(金发女孩). “Invite her for a drink?” Dannis hesitated. In another instant, the two women separated, neither of whose directions was toward him. When next he saw her, Dannis was buying a magazine and became aware someone was pushing him. At first, he was startled(受惊吓的)that anyone would be so close as to touch him, but when he saw who it was, he smiled. “Busy place,“ Dannis said. She looked up at him and blushed. Wordlessly, she moved away and joined the crowds in the terminal. Dannis was at the counter with his magazine, but when he reached into his pocket for his wallet, the pocket was empty. Where could I have left it? His mind was racing, the credit cards, the cash, the identification card…His stomach stirred with something very like fear. “The girl who was so near to me!“ he said to himself. All at once he understood she had picked his pocket. What shall he do? First, find a policeman, tell him what has happened. He would probably never see his wallet again. Dannis gritted his teeth. When glancing around for the police, suddenly, he spotted the black-haired girl, seated against a front window of the terminal. She seemed absorbed in a book. 注意：

The black-haired girl glanced up from her reading, with a confused look on her face.Dannis stood up, glared at her and shouted,“ You stole my wallet!” The crowds began to gossip.

They were so cute. M: I spent ages hunting for them, but I couldn’t find a single one. W: That was a pity! By the way, I really can’t wait to go back because there is just too much to see. M: I think we should read more about the wildlife before we think of going back there. 听下面一段对话，回答第13至第16四个小题。现在，你有20秒钟的时间阅读这四个小题。

(Text 9) M: Oh, hello. I’m Jack. This is the Law Students Association, right? W: Yes, that’s right. I’m Mary, President of the Association. Are you interested in joining? M: Maybe. What year are you in? W: The fourth year. M: I’m in the first year. I’m not sure if I’ll survive even into the second year. W: I’m sure you’ll make it just fine.

W: Well, there’s an annual membership fee of 10 pounds, or you can get four-year membership for 35 pounds. M: Mm, what activities do you have? W: We have guest speakers, talking about various topics. There’s a meeting on the first Tuesday of every month. M: That sounds great. I’d love to hear about their experience. But my timetable is so full already. I don’t think I have enough time to go to the meetings. Any other activities? W: Well, we offer some peer coaching. M: What’s that? Sounds like you’re mixing study and sport. W: Not in that way.

(Text 10) W: I’m Olga Victorie. Now I’m volunteering as a doctor in MSF, which is one of the world’s largest organizations that provide emergency medical relief. One of the biggest tasks I undertook this year was organizing a team to open a new hospital in a town that had no medical care for three years. The project was a success and the local people were thankful. What qualities and skills do you need to become a volunteer for MSF? You have to be able to deal with stress, and you need to be able to work independently as well as in a team. Besides medical experts, MSF needs the skills of technical staff such as building engineers and food experts. Now HIV and TB doctors are urgently needed. The work is tough and demanding but the rewards can be great. If you think you fit one of the positions, find out how to apply for it on our website www.msf.org.
