As a single parent, I tried to do my best to talk to him, but the more I tried, the more he pulled away. When his report card arrived during his junior year, it said that he had been absent 95 times from classes and had six failing grades for the year. At this rate he would never graduate. I sent him to the school adviser, and I even begged him. Nothing worked. ‎ ‎ One night I felt so powerless that I got down on my knees and pleaded for help. “Please God, I can’t do anything more for my son. I’m at the end of my rope. I’m giving the whole thing up to you. ”‎ ‎ I was at work when I got a phone call. A man introduced himself as the headmaster. “I want to talk to you about Karl’s absences. ” Before he could say another word, I chuked up and all my disappointment and sadness over Karl came pouring out into the ears of this stranger. “I love my son but I just don’t know what to do. I’ve tried everything to get Karl to go back to school and nothing has worked. It’s out of my hands. ” For a moment there was silence on the other end of the line. The headmaster seriously said, “Thank you for ‎ ‎·10·‎ your time, ”and hung up. ‎ ‎ Karl’s next report card showed a marked improvement in his grades. Finally, he even made the honor roll. In his fourth year, I attended a parent-teacher meeting with Karl. I noticed that his teachers were astonished at the way he had turned himself around. On our way home, he said, “Mum, remember that call from the headmaster last year? ” I nodded. “That was me. I thought I’d play a joke but when I heard what you said, it really hit me how much I was hurting you. That’s when I knew I had to make you proud. ”‎ ‎24.

They were wrong , and the AI running for the mayor of a Tokyo district was clear proof of that .‎ AI can’t legally run for high-ranking public management positions yet , but one mayoral candidate from Tama City , Tokyo , intended to maximize the use of artificial intelligence in running city affairs . He was running his campaign(竞选运动) as “AI Mayor” . Basically , he was suggesting replacing human public officials with AI and having them collect city data and create fair and balanced policies that will benefit everyone .‎ ‎“ For the first time in the world , AI will run in an election ,” human candidate Michihito Matsuda announced on Twitter. “ Artificial Intelligence will change Toma City . With the birth of an AI Mayor , we will conduct balanced politics .”‎ The AI Mayor was campaigning very much like its human competitors . Posters were shown all over Tama City and campaign trucks were having blaring out (大声鸣笛) promises of an AI utopia (乌托邦) and asking for support .‎ Some people called Michihito Matsuda’s campaign a stunt(噱头) , as a human would still be the one legally in charge . However , others said that they were excited about the future of AI running things in the background , adding that it had to be a better choice .‎ ‎·10·‎ ‎28.

However , they believe the experiment is not just a creative concept for astronauts , it’s also important for the development of drugs and yeast-containing foods , like bread .‎ ‎“ The idea started out with a few laughs among a group of friends ,” said Neeki Ashari , a fifth-year bioengineering student at UC San Diego . “ We all appreciate the craft of beer . When we heard that there was an opportunity to design an experiment that would go up on India’s moonlander , we thought we could combine our hobby with the competition by focusing on the practicality（可行性）of yeast in outer space .”‎ The preparation work for the beer --- up to the stage of adding yeast --- will all be done on Earth , and rather than separating the fermentation (发酵) and carbonation stages of making beer , the team plans to combine them . ‎ This removes the need to release CO₂ accumulated in the process , which may result in cleanliness and safety issues out in space .‎ If selected , Team Original Gravity will be the first to make beer in outer space , and the fermentation will take place in a vessel(容器) no bigger than a soda can .‎ All teams competing for the place will showcase their ideas in Bangalore , India , in March .‎ Sadly , you won’t be enjoying moon beer in your local craft beer bar anytime soon , as no samples will be brought back . However , this small experiment could provide important data on just how practical it is for us to make and create our own resources on other planets and moons by learning how consumables(消费品) behave in different environments . ‎ ‎32. How did the students feel when they got the chance to design the experiment ?‎ A. Excited . B. Nervous . C. Confident . D. Casual .‎ ‎33. What does the underlined word “ This ” in Paragraph 6 refer to ?‎ A. The mixing of two stages . B. Adding yeast on Earth .‎ ‎·10·‎ C. The preparation work on Earth . D. Fermentation and carbonation .‎ ‎34. What can we learn about the experiment from the passage ?‎ A. It has been designed based on similar experiments .‎ B. It’s quite competitive compared with other designs .‎ C. Its design has already been approved by TeamIndus .‎ D. Its process was adapted to make it safer and greener .‎ ‎35. What does the author think of the students’ idea ?‎ A. It seems like a pipe dream . B. It’s extremely complicated .‎ C. It’s meaningful and hopeful . D. It’s creative but impractical .‎ ‎ ‎ 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可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。‎ Take Care of Your Spine （脊柱）‎ ‎ The spine stands at the center of your health , providing your body with structure and support . It also contains your spine cord , a massive collection of nerves conveying electric signals from the rest of your body to your brain . 36 .‎ ‎ Maintaining good posture（姿势）is one of the most important things you can do to keep your spine healthy . Proper posture means standing or sitting while keeping your spine straight , except for its natural curves . Posture comes into play even when you are asleep . Sleeping on your side puts less stress on your spine than most other positions . 37 . Especially if you work at a desk most of the day , it’s important to get up and stretch regularly .‎ ‎ 38 . Stretch can help the muscles around your spine relax and allow bones to shift into better arrangement . Strength exercises like pushups (俯卧撑) can also help by strengthening the muscles around your spine . However , don’t overdo the exercise , as repeated motions can strain the muscles around your spine . ‎ ‎ Finally your diet affects the health of your spine because many vitamins are necessary for bone and nerves . In particular , vitamin B and D are essential to keep bones healthy , so you may want to consider taking a supplement . 39 , so it is also helpful to do some of the back exercise outside .‎ ‎ Many of the actions necessary to keep your spine healthy are identical to those used to preserve your health in other ways . 40 .‎ A. However, the latter is also absorbed from sunlight B. Staying still for too long can be hard on your back C. So protect your back, the rest of the body will benefit ‎ D. Protecting your spine with yoga is also a necessary step E. Try the following exercises to keep your spine more flexible ‎ F. Exercise is also an important factor in the health of your spine G. So you should take the following factors into account to have a healthy spine ‎ 第三部分 英语知识运用 （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，从短文后所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。‎ ‎·10·‎ Several months ago , Greece suffered from the refugee (难民) disaster .
