Here are the the best buys on the market right now.‎ ‎1. Boardman CX Comp This is a cross-country bike, and it’s so multifunctional that you can handle any terrain (地势) on it, making it a great choice for those wanting to try various cycling subjects. If you leave on the thick tires it comes with, it can ride on various paths and can even handle some less demanding mountain bike routes.

I never even knew his name and I only had contact with him for less than 60 seconds. His Christmas present to me changed the way I had thought about people and Christmas.‎ It was several years ago when my wife asked me to meet her at the local department store on Black Friday morning. They had advertised a child’s bike that she wanted to purchase for our son. We stood with a very large crowd, waiting for the manager to blow the whistle. After a while, the whistle blew. It was like throwing a bucket of fish into a tank of sharks. I told my wife that if we obtained a bike, fine, but if we did not, I was OK with that too.‎ As the shelf of bikes began to gradually decrease in size, I saw my polite opportunity to wrap my hands around the corner of one of the boxes. I lifted it off the box and suddenly felt some mild resistance. I looked up to see one of the largest gentlemen I had ever seen in my life. Threat was not the word to describe his presence. He was decorated with numerous belts of metal pointed leather around both arms and even his neck. Tattoos (文身) were an obvious passion of his.‎ I started to return anxiously the box but he gently pushed it back in my direction and back into my hands. He then directed it into my shopping cart. He looked at me, smiled, and said. “Merry Christmas.” My wife and I went to the checkout, paid for the bike and went home. All the way home I was thinking that this moment was by far the best Christmas gift I had ever received The kindness of a stranger that broke all previous views I may have had of stereotypes and prejudices. I will never forget the tenderness of a human heart in a simple act.‎ ‎24. Why does the author view the gift as the best one?‎ A. Because it was given by a stranger.‎ B.

It sold well that night.‎ B. It was attractive to women.‎ C It was sold at a lower price.‎ D. It was equipped with a whistle.‎ ‎26. What can we infer about the stranger with tattoos?‎ A. He was awful in appearance but kind in heart.‎ B. He was handsome and good-mannered.‎ C. He was big but cautious in behavior.‎ D. He was lovely and energetic.‎ ‎27. What may be the best title for the text?‎ A. A True Gentleman I Met B. The Best Gift I Ever Received C. A Choice That Changed My View D. A Stranger Who Gave Me a Gift C The future of Australia’s solar industry is looking bright after a record 3.5m panels (嵌板) were installed on rooftops last year, giving the equal output of a medium sized coal- fired power station. The record 1,057 MW of capacity (生产能力) in small-scale systems installed across the country broke the previous record set in 2012, figures from the Clean Energy Regulator showed on Tuesday.‎ Australia’s solar power prosperity could almost double capacity in a year. The data also revealed that the average system size has also doubled since then from three to six kilowatts as average prices continued to fall. A fully insulted 5KW system coats an average of $ 5,930 in Australia, according to the energy broker Solarchoice.net.au. Its records show that the price has roughly halved in many capital cities since 2012.‎ The regulator’s executive general manager, Mark Williamson, said there was increasing interest in renewals as a way to take control of electricity bills. But more importantly, he said it was also good news for reducing carbon emissions.‎ ‎“We are seeing a wide cross-section of Australians—households, community centers, schools,‎ ‎ and small businesses—receiving rewards under the small-scale renewable energy scheme,” Williamson said “Our data shows consumers are embracing renewable energy to take control of their electricity bills.”‎ In 2017, there was a 4l% increase in installing renewable energy capacity across all states and territories compared to 2016. Queensland led the way with installed capacity at 295MW, with the Australian Capital Territory taking top place for the biggest annual increase by 57%. “The data collected by the Clean Energy Regulator in 2017 reflects the industry is going from strength to strength. It looks like 2018 will be another big year for the solar industry.”‎ The total of installed capacity for last year is expected to rise to 1.070MW when all the data is collected. A large coal-fired power station such as Loyd Yang A in Victoria’s Latrobe Valley has a capacity of 2,200MW.‎ ‎28. What do we know about the Australia’s solar industry from the first paragraph?‎ A. It’s still risky.‎ B. It’s promising.‎ C. It’s unpredictable.‎ D. It’s within expectation.‎ ‎29. What’s the reason for the Australia’s solar industry’s development?‎ A. The entire decrease of the carbon emissions.‎ B. The autonomous control of the electricity bills.‎ C. The doubt about the capacity of coal-fired power station.‎ D. The continuous fall of the average price of installing a solar energy system.‎ ‎30. What does the underlined phrase “from strength to strength” in Paragraph 5 suggest?‎ A. Australia’s solar industry is being accepted.‎ B. Australia’s solar industry is developing rapidly.‎ C. Australia’s solar industry is more practical than before.‎ D. Australia’s solar industry is more advanced than other countries.‎ ‎31. What is the biggest feature of the renewable energy according to Mark Williams?‎ A. Reducing pollution.‎ B. Providing enough energy.‎ C. Lowering electricity bills.‎ D. Simplifying installed equipment.‎ D Entrepreneur and CEO of Tesla and Space X, Eldon Musk may have a little more time on his hands, as he’s leaving his position on the board of the Open AI, according to a blog post.‎ The departure is likely the result of Tesla’s moving into the field of Artificial Intelligence (AI), which he said in 2017 would be the “best in the world” and would even be able to “predict your destination.” Musk will continue to “donate and advise the organization,” Open AI said in a blog post on Feb. 20, adding that “As Tesla continues to become more focused on AI, this will avoid a potential future conflict for Eldon.”‎ Musk and Y Combiner CEO Sam Altman co-founded the nonprofit enterprise in December 2015, its mission is to develop safe artificial general intelligence and ensure those developments are made public. Open AI researchers published a paper on the site ArXiv.org, detailing the possible secure threats that come with “malicious” AI. In fact, Musk has heard the “evil AI” alarm several times. On Aug. 11, 2017, he warned that artificial intelligence poses a bigger threat to humanity, and he told a gathering of state governors that the government needs to regulate AI before robots start “killing people.”‎ Musk’s departure from the Open AI board could mean big things for Tesla. As Eton Goodbye, a financial reporter, noted on Futurism, the move “could signal that Tesla is more deeply committed to their own AI projects than we thought.” He added, “Those who have had their ears to any rumors (谣言) that Tesla is ready to deliver vehicles capable of Level 5 autonomy could take this new Open AI development as a sign that the company is inching closer to that unapproachable goal.” No company has reached that level of autonomy, which means that a driverless car could navigate any road under any conditions and that all the human “driver” would need to do is to input a destination.‎ ‎32. Why does Eldon Musk leave his position?‎ A. To create safer AI.‎ B. To build powerful Internet.‎ C. To develop social communication.‎ D. To avoid a possible conflict with Tesla.‎ ‎33. What is the Eldon Musk’s attitude towards the AI?‎ A. Ambiguous. B. Supportive.‎ C. Negative. D. Sympathetic.‎ ‎34. What does the underlined word “malicious” in Paragraph 3 mean?‎ A. Advanced. B. Unpopular.‎ C. Poisonous. D. Traditional.‎ ‎35. What can we infer from Eton Goodbye’s comments?‎ A. Level 5 autonomy is impossible.‎ B. The rumors about Tesla is meaningless.‎ C. He has no confidence in Open AI.‎ D. Level 5 autonomy could set human drivers free.‎ 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。‎ How To Cultivate Your Confidence Self-confidence, the combination of self-efficacy and self-esteem, is an essential part of humanity. A person with self-confidence generally is willing to take risks to achieve his personal goals. Someone who lacks self-confidence, however, is less likely to feel that he can achieve his goals. 36 ‎ Identify your negative thoughts.‎ Your negative thoughts might sound like this: “I can’t do that,” “I will surely fail”. This inner voice is pessimistic and unhelpful and will hold you back from achieving high self-esteem and greater self-confidence.‎ Turn your negative thoughts to positive thoughts.‎ ‎ 37 This may take the form of positive affirmations, such as “I am going to try it,” “I can be successful if I work at it,” or “people will listen to me.” Start with just a few positive thoughts a day.‎ Refuse to allow negative thoughts to occur more often than positive thoughts.‎ Eventually, your positive thoughts should be given more “brain space” than your negative thoughts. 38 ‎ ‎ 39 ‎ Avoid spending time around things that can make you feel bad about yourself again. These ‎ might be reminders from the past* clothing that no longer fits, or places that don’t fit with your new goals of gaining confidence. Though you may not be able to get rid of every negative source in your life, you can certainly think about how to cut your losses. 40 ‎ A. Get away from your past.‎ B. Rid reminders of your negativity.‎ C. This will go a long way in building up your self-confidence.‎ D. This means that you can have an abundance of self-confidence.‎ E. The more your positive thoughts get, the less your negative thoughts get.‎ F. As you pay attention to your negative thoughts, turn them around to positive thoughts.‎ G. The good news is that self-confidence is something that you can build on your own.‎ 第三部分 语言知识运用（百强校英语解析团队专供）（共两节,满分45分）‎ 第一节（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。‎ At 7 am on October 2, 2016, I got up, feeling excited and nervous.

Firstly I collected all the books, newspapers and other things scattered in the rooms and put them in place. Then I wiped the dust off all the furniture. After that, I swept and mopped the floors.‎ At that moment, my parents came back and were quite surprised to see all the rooms tidy and floors shining. My mother gave me a hug and I could see her satisfaction from her eyes. Tired as I was, I felt so happy.‎ Yours,‎ Li Hua
