Just after dusk l m in a car down a muddy road in the rain, past rows of shackled (戴镣铐的) elephants, their trunks swinging. I was here five hours before, when the sun was high and hot and tourists were on elephants' backs. Walking now, I can barely see the path in the glow of my phone' s flashlight. When the wooden fence post stops me short, I point my light down and follow a current of rainwater across the concrete floor until it washes up against three large, gray feet. A fourth foot twisted above the surface, tied tightly by a short chain and choked by a ring of metal spikes ( 尖 刺 ). When the elephant tires and puts her foot down, the spikes press deeper into her ankle. Meena is four years and two months old, still a child as elephants go. Khammon Kongkhaw, her caretaker, told me earlier that Meena wears the spiked chain because she tends to kick. Kongkhaw has been responsible for Meena here at Maetaman Elephant Adventure, near Chiang Mai, in northern Thailand, since she was 11 months old. He said he keeps her on the spiked chain only during the day and takes it off at night. But it's night now. I ask Jin Laoshen, the Maetaman worker accompanying me on this nigh time visit, why her chain is still on. He says he doesn't know. Maetaman is one of many animal attractions in and around tourist-crowded Chiang Mai. Meena’s life is set to follow the same track a many of the roughly 3,800 captive (被捉获的) elephants in Thailand. When Meena is too old or sick to give rides --- maybe at 55, maybe at 75 --- she'll die. If she's lucky, she'll get a few years of retirement. She'll spend most of her life on a chain. 24. Why does the author decide to come back? A. She wants to check a baby elephant, Meena B. She wants to feed those shackled elephants. C. She wants to release those shackled elephants D. She know a baby in need of help urgently 25 What can we conclude from the second paragraph? A. The author is scared walking in the path. B. Meena is treated badly and very painful. C. Meena only has three healthy legs. D. One of Meena's legs is badly broken. 26 What's the author's attitude towards those elephants? A. indifferent. B. Critical. C. Sympathetic. D. Negative 27. We can infer that the purpose of the author's writing is ________. A. to describe those elephants to attract tourists around the world B. to appeal to people to care about the fate of those elephants. C. to tell readers the story of a baby elephant in Chiang Mai, Thailand. D. to tell the reason why the number of elephants is decreasing. C While many Chinese watched movies at cinemas during the week long Spring Festival holiday , Zheng Wei explained the film The Spring Festival to an audience of visually impaired (受伤的) people at a cinema in Northern China' s Tianjin. "Fireworks light up the dark on New Year' , Eve , and children are playing in an open place covered with white snow," said Zheng to the audience , describing the visual elements of the movie while holding a micro-phone and a script. As the founder of "cinema for the blind" in Tianjin, the 55-year-old has insisted on brightening the dark world of the visually impaired in his own way for 11 years. Shao Yuxiang and her husband, who are both blind, are regular visitors of the cinema. She wore an elegant yellow sweater to attend the couple' s significant “movie day". Since October 2007, the free movies, which are described through audio, start at 9: 30 am on the third Saturday of each month. More than 150 movies have been screened to more than 20 ,000 visually impaired people so far. "The theater is equipped with lights, a sound system, projector, and a big screen to give the blind a complete and equal movie experience," Zheng said. In 2007, after having learned that a "cinema for the blind" established by Wang Weili had benefited many visually impaired people in Beijing, Zheng rushed to Wang' s establishment for advice. Under Wang's guidance , Zheng built a new cinema in Tianjin and screened The Dream Factory by Chinese director Feng Xiaogang. It attracted more than 50 visually impaired people from different districts and even suburban areas in Tianjin. Zheng always treats movie selections with seriousness He usually chooses Mandarin language movies with positive themes that reflect modem society. Special movies for certain Chinese festivals are also part of Zheng's selection criteria. For example, The Founding of a Republic is specially for National Day. Now, films for Spring Festival are on my agenda, " Zheng said. 28. How did Zheng Wei help the blind watch movies? A. Zheng Wei helps the blind watch movies clearly by themselves. B.

How do the visually impaired people watch movies? D. The 'cinema for the blind' that will never close, D Demand for the Chinese tech company's devices (设备) is red hot even though. the country's overall market for smartphones is getting smaller. Huawei's China sales rocketed more than 20% in the final quarter of 2018, and experts say that 's partly due to the US government's global campaign against the company. “The latest tension between the US and China raised the patriotism (爱国主义) in Chinese consumers,"said Jusy Hong, an analyst at research firm 1HS Markit. He pointed out that some Chinese companies encouraged employees to buy Huawei phones late last year. The moves were a gesture of support after the firm s chief financial officer was arrested in Canada in early December at the request of the United States. Huawei's booming sales show how major parts of its business continue to increase even as the United States tries to persuade other countries to shut Huawei products out of 5G wireless networks and pursues( 追 究 ) criminal charges against it. The company expects to overtake Samsung as the world s biggest smartphone maker by next year. Huawei sold 30 million phones in China in the last three months of 2018, nearly three times as many as Apple (AAPL), according to data published this week by research firms Canalys and IDC. Apple s sales plunged almost 20% . Huawei’s success in China, the world' s largest smarphone market, is more than about geopolitics (地缘政治). Chinese consumers love its flagship, high-end phones because they have great cameras, cutting edge technology and cost less than the latest iPhones, according to analysts. And by offering a selection of cheaper phones, Huawei is able to target a bigger market. It also benefited from the troubles this year at ZTE (ZTCOF), a rival Chinese smartpone and telecommunications equipment maker. ZTE was banned by the US government from buying vial American pars for months last year. 32. Why did Huawei's China sales increase greatly according to the article? A. Because the company' s devices are always popular worldwide. B. Because Chinese consumers' patriotism was aroused. C. Because the government encourages people to buy Huawei deice D. Because the county's, overall market for smarphones is getting bigger. 33. What can we conclude from the third paragraph? A.

Jusy Hong thought the United Slates arrested Huawei's chief financial officer D. Jusy Hong thought the arrest of Huawei's chief financial officer is unfair 34. How do you understand the underlined word in the fifth paragraph? A. Increase gradually by. B. reduced greatly to C. dropped greatly by. D. remained steady 35. Why is Huawei's success in China more than about geopolitics? A. Because Huawei has the largest smartphone market in the world. B. Because Huawei's success is only limited within China mainland. C Because Huawei has the ability to target a bigger market in the world. D. Because Chinese consumers are quite satisfied with Huawei smartphones. 第二节（共 5 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。 Have you ever been bored and decided to check social media, only to find out that your best friend is at Disneyland, that one of your classmates is eating delicious pizza at your favorite pizza store, and that one of your soccer teammates is climbing the Eiffel Tower in Paris?
