The Daily Mail described it as the “world’s ultimate library”, while the word “breathtaking” was the choice of Newsweek magazine. One look at the library and you’ll see why. With its futuristic design and walls loaded with books, it’s the dream library of every book lover.‎ But as the surprise continues, there’s a burning question lying in the back of our minds: When physical bookstores are closing down one by one, what makes libraries safe from the wave of digitalization? And do we really still need libraries now that we’ve got the Internet in our hands?‎ Reporter Ian Clark has the answer. “Libraries are not declining in importance—people are simply changing the way they use them,” he wrote on the Guardian website.‎ What Clark means is that libraries have shifted from simply being storehouses of books to a medium to help “bridge the gap between the haves and the have-nots” according to website Libraries Are Essential. Since not everyone can afford a phone, a tablet or an Internet connection, and not everyone has the know-how to search the Internet correctly and efficiently, it is public libraries that make sure that these resources and technologies are available to a larger group of people.‎ ‎“Nobody is trying to sell you anything in the library. There is no pressure to buy and there is no judgment of your choices. ” Anne Goulding, a professor at Victoria University in New Zealand, wrote on the Newsroom website. “There are few other places that you can just ‘be’ without somebody questioning your presence or your motivation.”‎ 21. What cause book-lovers to like Tianjin Binhai Public Library?‎ A. Breathtaking magazines. B. World’s ultimate buildings.‎ ‎ C. Design and book walls. D. Digitalization.‎ 22. Why are physical libraries necessary to exist?‎ A. Everyone has a phone with them.‎ B. Some people are still used to the old ways.‎ C. More and more people use computers.‎ D. People can buy what they want there.‎ 23. What does the text mainly talk about?‎ A. Libraries living on in digital age. B. Internet libraries nowadays.‎ ‎ C. Physical libraries in the past. D. People’s dream libraries.‎ B Dropping your smart phone when taking a selfie could soon be less risky, says specialty glass maker Corning. For more than 160 years, Corning has applied its unique technology in specialty glass to develop products that have created new industries and changed people's lives. Corning’s work in specialty glass dates back to 1879, when the company produced the glass used in the famous Thomas Edison light bulb.‎ The company’s next generation of Gorilla Glass has come along-the material used in more than 70% of smart phone screens, including on Samsung and Apple products. Corning said Gorilla Glass 5 could survive more than 80% of drops from as high as 1.6 meters.‎ Broken or cracked screens are the number one cause of smart phone repairs and customer complaints globally, followed by overheat. The new glass was tested on rough surfaces-phone models were dropped from a height of 1.6 meters onto a sheet of sandpaper. Some of the phones tested survived over 20 hard drops in the lab. Typically, most phone drops are from between waist and shoulder height. As well as drops, the company said it was twice as good at resisting scratch and other damage compared to what's currently on the market.‎ Smartphone producers are expected to market products with the new glass within the next few months. “We’ve been working with our closest customers for quite some time now, ” Corning’s vice president and general manager John Bayne said. “And there’s huge interest in this product for obvious reasons. ”‎ 24. What is paragraph 3 mainly talking about?‎ A. Tests on the new glass. B. Complaints from customers.‎ ‎ C. Causes of screen damage. D. Marketing of the new glass.‎ 25. What do we know about Gorilla Glass 5?‎ A. It’s well received in the market. B. It began to be produced in 1879.‎ ‎ C. It has changed people’s lives. D. It’s strong and doesn’t break easily.‎ 26. What is John Bayne’s attitude towards the future of the new glass?‎ A. doubtful. B. optimistic. C. defensive. D. uncertain.‎ C Repression As I was relaxing at the beach, I couldn’t help but eavesdrop (偷听) on a conversation four high school kids were having on the beach blanket next to me, and it went something like this…‎ ‎“It’s impossible to make a difference unless you own lots of money and power, ” one of them said.‎ ‎“Yeah man, ” another replied. “My mom keeps telling me to move mountains – to speak up and stand up for what I believe. But what I say and do doesn't even get noticed. ” “Repression…” another snickered (窃笑).‎ I smiled because I knew exactly how they felt. When I was their age, I was certain I was being repressed and couldn’t possibly make a difference in this world.‎ Suddenly, one noticed me eavesdropping and smiling. He sat up, looked at me and said, “What?‎ Do you disagree? ” Then as he waited for a response, the other three kids turned around too.‎ Rather than arguing with them, I took an old receipt out of my wallet, ripped it into four pieces, and wrote a different word on each piece. Then I crumbled the pieces into little paper balls and handed a different piece to each one of them.‎ ‎“Look at the word on the paper and don’t show it to anyone else. You have two choices, ” I told them. “If your word inspired you to make a difference in this world, then hold onto it. If not, give it back to me so I can recycle the paper. ” They all returned their words.‎ I scooted (快走) over, sat down on the sand next to their beach blanket and laid out the four words that the students had returned to me so that the words combined to form the simple sentence, “I have a dream. ”‎ I smiled and explained, “On their own, ‘I’ or ‘have’ or ‘a’ or ‘dream’ are just words, not very inspiring. But when you put them together, they create a phrase that has been powerful enough to move millions of people to take action – action that changed laws, ideas, and lives. And what’s true for words is also true for people, ” I continued. “One person without help from anyone else can’t do much to make a sizable difference in this crazy world - or to overcome all of the various forms of repression that exist today. Together is how mountains are moved. Together is how small people make a big difference. ”‎ 24. Why were the kids repressed?‎ A. Because they didn’t get noticed from others.‎ B. Because they were eavesdropped by a stranger.‎ C. Because they didn’t have lots of money or power.‎ D. Because they lacked confidence of making a difference.‎ 25. What did the writer do when one of the kids noticed him eavesdropping? A. He argued with them.‎ B. He played a game with them.‎ C. He sat down on the sand next to their beach blanket.‎ D. He tore an old receipt and wrote different words on the pieces.‎ 26. Which of the following sentences is true according to the story? A. The word on the paper inspires the four kids.‎ B. The writer’s purpose is to tell them to have faith in life.‎ C. The kids and the writer are complaining about their life.‎ D. All of the four kids don’t believe they can change the world.‎ 27. Which one is the best title for the story?‎ A. How adults persuade kids B. How to create a better world to live in C. How small people make a big difference D. How young adults build up their confidence 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。‎ Easy to make and cheap to buy, instant noodles have long been China’s most ultimate convenient food.

The decline of instant noodle sales shows a shift in China’s eating patterns. 32‎ Population shift: Rural workers are going home ‎33 They are away from home, often living in crowded rooms with limited cooking facilities, and try to save as much money as they can to send back home. Until 2014 the number of rural Chinese who had moved to cities had been on the rise. But that trend has now on the contrary in recent years.‎ Travel: Transportation improving, habits changing Travelling in China 20 years ago, people filled their stomach by eating pot after pot of instant noodles during cross-country train journeys ， which sometimes lasted three days or more. But Chinese trains and stations have improved. 34 Consequently, noodle sales on the railways have fallen.‎ ‎35‎ About 730 million people in China now have access to the Internet. And about 95% of those are using smart phones to connect. And apps that offer food delivery happen to be quite popular.‎ And these meals can still be inexpensive and tasty.‎ A. Apps: A convenient way to order food B. Network: There’s another form of “quick food”‎ C. But by 2017 those sales had decreased to 38.5 billion packets.‎ D. One of the big consumers of instant noodles are migrant workers.‎ E. Their menus are undoubtedly more expensive than a pot of instant noodles.‎ F. Journeys are quicker, and the range of food options is far more international.‎ G. Consumers are more interested in life quality than just filling their stomachs these days.‎ 第三部分 语言运用（共两节，满分45分）‎ 第一节 完形填空（共 20 小题；每小题 1.5 分，满分 30 分）阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的 A、B、C 和 D 四个选项中，选出可以填入空白处的最 佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。‎ As my husband, Mark and I rode our bicycles on the tree-lined streets in our neighborhood this spring, we took great 36 from the beauty and fragrance of the flowering trees and shrubs.
