Below are five of the best countries to seek retirement Costa Rica Mild climate, breathtaking landscapes and beaches draw retirees(退休人员)to Costa Rica. The country readily welcomes immigrants and offers a simple residency process. With a monthly income of at least $ 1,000 per month from Social Security or a similar source, people enjoy a high standard of living at a much lower cost than the U. S. Malaysia Retirees who choose to make Malaysia home will appreciate its rich culture and attractive scenery. Moreover, the country offers modern facilities at modest prices. Immigrants enjoy convenience and comfort in their daily life. You will find low-cost rental units, delicious street food, and various shopping malls. Mexico Because it’s close to the U.S., Mexico draws more than a million American retirees to its borders. Increasing immigrant communities enjoy seaside living and conversations with friendly. English speaking locals. Plus, legal residents over the age of 60 receive airline, grocery, and restaurant discounts. Panama Gentle ocean wind takes the heat out of hot year-round temperatures, which has been the chief attraction to foreign retirees. Beautiful beaches and a booming economy also attract retirees to Panama. An income of $2,000 per month covers modest living costs. Furthermore, the country offers discounts to retirees with a special visa. Ecuador Lazy coastal towns, sun-shining hot spots, and nature-filled views wait for immigrants seeking a carefree lifestyle. Public transportation costs in Ecuador make owning a vehicle unnecessary. A bus ride only costs 25 cents and taxi rides will run about $3. 21. What do Costa Rica and Malaysia have in common? 19 A. Convenient shopping. B. Relatively low living cost. C. Various cultural activities. D. Simple immigration procedures. 22. Which country’s location specially attracts retirees from the U.S.? A. Malaysia’s. B. Mexico’s. C. Panama’s. D. Ecuador’s. 23. What is the main reason for retirees to choose Panama’? A. Beautiful beaches. B. A booming economy. C. A pleasant climate. D. Discounts for retirees. B “I’ve always loved food,” says Cassie Dawson in the kitchen of her flat in London. “But I’ve become bored with eating out. I’ve had too many disappointing meals and paid too much money for them! At one point, fed up with my complaint, a friend suggested I open my own restaurant. Impossible, I thought. But then I heard about supper clubs...” Supper clubs are a mixture of a restaurant and a dinner party — you go to a stranger’s house and he/she cooks dinner for you. Like a restaurant, you pay for your food, but like a dinner party, you eat at the same table as other people. They are advertised through social-networking sites with a menu and little information about where the supper club is until just before the meal. “It’s like running a secret restaurant for one night,” says Cassie. “The next morning, I set the tables and chairs aside. I put the TV back and it’s my living room again.” Cassie opens her “restaurant” for people about once a month, and she really enjoys the evenings she’s had so far. She uses fresh, local ingredients and a typical meal costs about the same as a takeaway — much less than a restaurant meal. So how does she make money out of it? “I don’t,” says Cassie. “In fact, at first I was worried about losing money on my club. I’m good at cooking but my maths is terrible! But I was surprised by 19 how cheaply I could make a good meal. This isn’t about money. It’s about a different eating experience.” And what about inviting complete strangers into her house? Was Cassie ever nervous about that? “Not at all,” she says. “Almost everyone at the supper club is just interested in having a good meal with other interesting people.” 24.Why did Cassie decide to open her own restaurant finally? A. To earn a living. B. To satisfy her friend’s needs. C. To make friends with strangers. D. To cook cheap and good meals for others. 25.What does the underlined word “They” in Paragraph 2 refer to? A. Dinner parties. B. Supper clubs. C. Fresh ingredients. D. Invitations to dinner. 26.We can know that Cassie’s restaurant ________. A. serves meals for free B. only serves takeaways C. is only open to her friends D. is only open in the evening 27.How does Cassie feel about her restaurant now? A. Worried. B. Content. C. Annoyed. D. Sensitive. C Over the past decade, the growth in highskilled jobs has largely been limited to Australia's biggest cities. Meanwhile, in rural and regional Australia lowerskilled jobs have been growing fastest. This skills gap is increasing regional differences in income and employment opportunities, despite the promises of technology and infrastructure as solutions to the tyranny of remoteness. Our research finds that jobs, particularly the highly skilled, whitecollar kind, are becoming increasingly collaborative(协作的). Complex tasks and rapidly changing work environments have increased the need for workers who can collaborate with others to solve problems and who are open to continuous learning. Roles for highly skilled 19 workers are becoming more specialized. This specialization means more collaboration with other specialists and greater space for market positioning. The productive advantages of cities are selfreinforcing. Skilled workers benefit from the opportunity to learn from and add value with other skilled workers. The coordination(协调) costs of this collaborative work are reduced when team members are colocated. Employers also benefit from proximity(接近) to similar firms because there is a larger pool of skilled candidates for new jobs and better access to potential business partners. All these advantages encourage further specialization and productivity gains, with the result that workers and business continue to concentrate around large city centers. The_growing_skills_divide_between_urban_and_rural_Australia_reflects_a_paradox(悖论)_of_the_digital_economy. While digital technology represents a channel for bridging geographic distance, highly skilled workers are increasingly crowding into cities. The latest census(人口普查) data shows no change in the rate of working from home, despite muchimproved digital infrastructure in some areas. In time this may change, perhaps as video confferencing technology improves. However, while better technology might allow regional workers to interact with colleagues and clients in cities, it will also make it easier for citybased professionals to service regional areas. Employment is still growing in regional Australia. But the fact that cities make highly skilled workers more productive means the gap in skilled employment is likely to continue to widen. Attempts to swim against this tide by moving skilled jobs to the country will be expensive. Currently, subsidies(补助金) are needed to attract and retain(保留) highly skilled health professionals to regional communities. Despite this, our analysis of the latest census data shows that the skills gap between regions and cities is still growing. 19 So these subsidies are not translating into sustainable, collaborative communities of highskilled regional workers. Instead, regions need to focus on their strengths, and foster the entrepreneurship that can create new sources of gainful employment. The government's move towards more individualised funding arrangements in the aged care and disability care sectors will increasingly become a resilient(有弹性的) source of income for workers and businesses in regional communities. Demand for aged care services is expected to increase dramatically in the coming decades, such that by 2050 some 3.5 million Australians will require aged care. Adding to this, regional communities are experiencing population ageing at a faster rate than the large capital cities. These are important jobs which should be recognised as such. There will be opportunities for regional businesses to provide the technology and services (ranging from personalised transport to food services) which allow older people and Australians with disability to remain active and healthy. Currently people from the regions who are eager for professional careers typically move to the city to study. In many cases they do not return. Here, technology may be part of the solution. Combining specialised online educational resources with good local support teachers could enable students to access a much wider range of courses from regional areas. Regional communities will also need entrepreneurs(企业家) to develop the future industries and microbusinesses which improve the diversity and resilience of the local economy. However, startups and existing businesses are more likely to survive and expand when there is a supportive entrepreneurship ecosystem, including access to relevant skills development opportunities. 28. Workers and business continue to concentrate around large city centers in that ________. A. highly skilled workers increase the coordination costs B. potential business partners live close to large city centers C. they encourage selfdependence and increase differences 19 D. they benefit from specialization and productive advantages 29. What does the underlined sentence in Paragraph 5 mean? A. Digital infrastructure in some areas have been greatly improved. B. The lowerskilled workers are likely to have a considerable income. C. Digital technology doesn't necessarily bridge the gap in skilled employment. D. The government will have more support and preferential policies for business. 30. The author mentions “aged care services” to indicate that ________. A. they lack proper management B. they can bring new jobs to regions C. they focus on their technical strengths D. they help regions' funding arrangements 31. What does the passage mainly talk about? A. Lowskilled jobs have been growing fast in regional Australia. B. Regional Australia is committed to the development of local economy. C. The skill jobs gap is increasing between cities and regions in Australia. D. Highly skilled workers crowd into cities to pursue career development. D Pollution’s disastrous effects on the environment have become more obvious in recent years, leading to a movement to promote energy efficiency (效率), less reliance on fossil (化石的) fuels and a reduction in air and water pollution. Most scientists agree that such changes are necessary to protect our environment from further harm. The construction industry consumes a large quantity of energy and resources and creates a huge amount of pollution. In the United States, building and development account for 39 percent of the country’s total energy use, 12 percent of total water consumption, 68 percent of total electricity consumption and 38 percent of carbon dioxide emissions (排放), according to the Environment Protection Agency. Green buildings use less energy, water, create less waste and are healthier to live, work and go to school in than standard buildings. Builders of green buildings use techniques that use resources more efficiently during the entire building cycle 19 — construction, restoration, operation, maintenance (维护) and demolition (拆毁) — than those who construct more regular buildings. The environmental benefits of building green include the protection of ecosystems and biodiversity, improved air and water quality, less waste flowing into streams and the conservation of natural resources. Green buildings can also result in lower operating costs because they typically use less energy and fewer materials and improve indoor air quality, improving the health of people who live there. The process of building green includes technical and artistic planning with nature conservation in mind. Building designs often reflect the surrounding environment and natural resources and use renewable building materials such as bamboo and straw. In addition, recycled resources found locally are used for green buildings, reducing the cost and air pollution associated with transporting materials long distances. Careful site selection is important to minimize (最小化) human impact on the surrounding environment. For example, placing a structure in an area that allows it to take advantage of cool breezes (微风) and sunlight can reduce energy use and expenses. More energy and expense are needed for larger buildings as well, so it is important to build small. Green roofs are another feature of green houses that reduce energy use and cost. These roofs are partially or completely covered with plants, which helps to keep heating and cooling costs low, prevent water running off and deal with pollutants. Other features of green buildings often include energy and water conservation, recycling and waste reduction. In addition, renewable energy sources such as solar power, hydropower (水能) and wind power are used for heat and electricity, which greatly reduces costs and decreases the impact on the environment. 32. What is the text mainly about? A. The necessity of promoting energy efficiency. B. The process of building green buildings. C. The benefits and features of green buildings. D. Green buildings’ effects on the environment. 19 33. According to the text, green buildings refer to the buildings that . A. produce no waste B. only use clean energy C. are made of recycled materials D. use energy and resources more efficiently 34. Which of the following statements is TRUE about green buildings? A. They rely on fossil fuels and solar power for heat and electricity. B. Small buildings are less efficient in energy use than larger ones. C. The ecosystem has to be considered when building a green building. D. They are difficult to maintain and thus need more operating costs. 35. Green roofs are used because . A. they fit the surrounding environment well B. they are cheaper than other kinds of roofs C. they can keep natural water for use in everyday life D. they can help to control the temperature in the building well 第二部分 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。 Making decisions when shopping is often a tough call. Even if you're satisfied with the first dress you try on, would you go on looking for alternatives, comparing styles and prices ,until dropped dead? Psychology researchers have studied how people make decisions and concluded there are two basic styles. " Maximizers" like to take their time and weigh a wide range of choices, sometimes every possible one —before choosing." Satisficers" would rather be fast than thorough 19 ___36___So even if they see what would seem to meet their requirements, they can't make a decision until after they've examined every option to make sure that they're making the best possible choice. Researchers followed 548 job-seeking college seniors at 11 schools from October through their graduation in June. They found that the maximizers landed better jobs.____37____ "The maximizers is kicking himself because he can't examine every choice and at some point had to just pick something, " they say." Maximizers make best decisions and end up feeling bad about hem.____38____" Satisficers also have high standards, but they are happier than maximizers. Maximizers tend to be more depressed and to report a lower satisfaction with life, his research found. Faced with so many choices in our lives, we need to learn how not to waste time and energy on our decision- making. ____39____For instance, if you're picking a restaurant for lunch meeting, first deciding on a certain part of town or type of cuisine can narrow your choices. Once you've arrived at a decision, stick with it. ____40____To limit the number of choices you can set a time for decision-making. Say you are buying a new bag, you could spend an amount of time studying features, price and value but if you give yourself only five minutes to make a decision,and there are only bags you can consider, you'll save time.You'll be happier with your decision, too. A.Firstly, decrease your range of choices. B.Maximizers are people who want the best. 19 C.Just accept no decision is ever completely perfect. D.Comparing is often a must when you make a decision. E.Satisficers make good decisions and end up feeling good. F. The other is to make decisions more accurately at the beginning. G.Their starting salaries were 20 percent higher but they felt worse about their jobs. 三.语言知识技能运用(共两节,共45分) 【一】完形填空(每题1.5分,共30分) 阅读下面短文,从短文后各题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中,选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 Everyone enjoys a fitting reply.

If you want to be a writer, go for it! Pursue writing!” Mr. Ralston’s 58 to follow my dreams was the little nudge I needed to help me push past my 59 of not making it as a writer and simply “Go for it!” That’s what an encouraging word will do when spoken in love in 60 season.

One possible version Dear Peter, I’m writing to share a piece of good news with you. Our school will run a Peking Opera Camp for exchange students this summer vacation. It starts from July 11th and ends on July 20th, lasting ten days. Some famous artists will offer basic courses on this national treasure, including singing, dialogues, movements as well as facial make-up. What they want to communicate through the courses is that Peking Opera is not just an art, but a symbol of traditional Chinese culture which deserves to be passed down from generation to generation. Since you’re always keen on Peking Opera, so I sincerely hope you’ll take this chance. Join the camp and have a good time there! Yours, Li Hua 19查看更多
