I don’t know how you always mess up our orders.”‎ I politely mumbled an apology. It was only a cup of soup, and an honest mistake, but I felt like such a disaster.‎ The residents at the high-end senior living community, where I served as a waitress in the cafeteria, expected nothing less than a five-star dining experience and my small mistake was not to be tolerated.‎ When I first started working there, I was already shy and couldn’t stand the idea that someone didn’t like me. Early on, when residents would scold or criticize me with or without reasons, I felt like crawling under a rock.‎ The most difficult guests by far were a group of six women who the servers nicknamed “The Party.” At first, they seemed friendly. But the truth is that they were rude and demanding. I would leave the dining room exhausted almost every night after serving them.‎ Somehow those rough nights started to change me to become more outgoing and self-assured. The residents gradually depend on me and my “convinced” smile. I used to have trouble speaking in front of a group and would be shy when I did. Now, I have no problem walking up to a table of fourteen people and making conversation as if I had known them my whole life.‎ I give credit to “The Party” for putting me in a situation where I had no choice but to smile and carry on. Today, when I see “The Party”, I still flinch a little inside, but then I pull back my shoulders, lift my chin and march up to them ask, “What’s it going to be today, ladies?”‎ ‎24. What do we know about the residents?‎ A. They are very picky about services.‎ B. They all enjoy having meals in groups.‎ C They all behave nicely and reasonably.‎ D. They all find favors in the eyes of the servers.‎ ‎25. Which is the quality the author possesses now?‎ A. Shyness. B. Confidence. C. Selfishness. D. Indifference.‎ ‎26. What does the underline word “flinch” mean?‎ A. take in. B. beat up. C. cheer up. D. draw back.‎ ‎27. What moral lesson can we take from this story?‎ A. Where there is a will, there is a way.‎ B. Practice makes perfect.‎ C. What doesn’t kill you makes you stronger.‎ D. With great power comes great responsibility.‎ C Scientists first noticed something was up in a study that compared two similar groups: transit drivers, who sit most of the day, and conductors or guards, who don’t. Though their diets and lifestyles were a lot alike, those that sat were about twice as likely to get heart disease as those that stood.‎ Sitting too much may increase the risk of dying prematurely. Even if you work out 7 hours a week — far more than the suggested 2-3 hours — you can’t reverse (逆转) the effects of sitting 7 hours at a time. Don’t throw away all that hard work at the gym by hitting the couch for the rest of the day. Keep moving!‎ The seated position puts huge stress on your body, including back muscles, neck, and spine. Look for an ergonomic chair — that means it’ll be the right height and support your back in the proper spots. But remember: No matter how comfortable you get, your back still won’t like a long sitting session. Get up and move around for a minute or two every half hour to keep your spine in line.‎ You may be more likely to get cancer. The more you sit, the higher the chances. Older women have higher chances of getting breast cancer. That doesn’t change if you’re super-active. What matters is how much you sit.‎ Then, to be healthy, you need to know how to take a stand? Work more movement into ‎ your day: Stand up and stretch every half hour or so. Touch your toes. Take a stroll around the room. Stand at your desk for part of the day. Set your computer on top of a box. All these things can help stop the negative effects of uninterrupted sitting and keep you on the road to good health.‎ ‎28. Who may be the fittest person according to the text?‎ A. Mr. Green, who drives the city bus, works 8 hours a day.‎ B. Mr. Smith, who exercises 7 hours a week, sits 7 hours to work a day.‎ C. Ms. William, who sits comfortably in a chair, works long as a typist.‎ D. Mrs. Glenn, who is a receptionist, takes a walk in the park 2 hours a day.‎ ‎29. How many paragraphs are devoted to listing the possible damages?‎ A. 3. B. 4. C. 5. D. 6.‎ ‎30. What’s the author’s suggestion for people to be fit?‎ A. Don’t sit while you are working.‎ B. Look for an ergonomic chair to sit in.‎ C. Get up occasionally and move around.‎ D. Work out 2-3 hours a week for health.‎ ‎31. What is the best title for this article?‎ A. Sitting too much really kills B. New findings from scientists C. How to take a stand D. Stand up and sit down D You must have heard of Mr. No Ears. This earless, one-eyed cat from Albufeira, Portugal, is a Facebook phenomenon and has his own book: Saudades Mr. No Ears. But for those of you who don’t know him, here is his story.‎ Often referred to as the “Lion King of Albufeira”, this adorable cat was the head of a eat colony in the region. Viewed from a distance, he appeared to be a king, sitting on a wall. On most days, this was usually where you would find Mr. No Ears, with the members of his colony scattered around on the walkway. At other times, he was jumping cliffs and running on the beach. No one knew on which day he was born, so his caretakers decided to celebrate his birthday on ‎ World Animal Day on October 4th.‎ Although there were no ears, his hearing functioned well. One of his eyes was open and purulent (有脓的), with no sign of an eyeball…...Despite all of his problems, he was a strong-minded and happy cat. Some hotel owners found him annoying, ordering his caretakers to send him away so he wouldn’t “upset tourists.” But there were just as many people who loved him to pieces, and once he got his own Facebook page, the entire world was at his paws.‎ On the evening of 11 September 2015, Mr. No Ears was taken away against his will. Less than an hour later a request was made via a Facebook page asking for money, making false claims that he was “in pain” and “had bone cancer.” It was said that in an attempt to prove cancer which he did not have, Mr. No Ears suffered a heart attack. He then suffered organ damage, including his kidneys and liver. The taking-away of this much-loved cat from his home and family and the circumstances of his death were very emotive subjects, causing shockwaves throughout the animal-loving world.‎ Thanks to Mr. No Ears, the Albufeirafs Peneco beach Colony became a household name and a “must see” on cat lovers, holiday choices. You will recognize Mr. No Ears’ favorite seat under a palm tree because Mr. No Ears’ love-lock is attached to it.‎ ‎32. Which of the following statements is TRUE?‎ A. Mr. No Ears was born on October 4th.‎ B. Mr. No Ears could hear well without ears.‎ C. All the hotel owners liked Mr. No Ears.‎ D. Mr. No Ears always stayed alone.‎ ‎33. What does the underlined sentence in Paragraph 3 mean?‎ A. The cat could get to know the world via Facebook page.‎ B. People around the world loved the cat.‎ C. The cat is the Lion King of Albufeira.‎ D. The cat’s caretakers made money on the Internet.‎ ‎34. What is Paragraph 4 mainly about?‎ A. The unexpected response from animal lovers.‎ B. The disappearance and return of Mr. No Ears.‎ C. The disease that took Mr. No Ears’ life.‎ D. The foggy death of Mr. No Ears.‎ ‎35. What can we infer from this passage?‎ A. Albufeira owes its fame to Mr. No Ears.‎ B. Mr. No Ears became famous after his death.‎ C. People began to protect cats because of Mr. No Ears.‎ D. In memory of Mr. No Ears, people named a tree after him.‎ 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。‎ When it comes to time management, there are two main types of people: those who are habitually early and those who are — despite their best intentions — always late. So how to be a punctual person?‎ ‎1. Consider the Consequences of Being Late Punctual people are aware of the consequences of being late. So, before you can transform into a punctual person, it helps to examine the effect of your tardiness (拖延). ‎ ‎ 36 . Getting this real social feedback from them can help shift your understanding of how your tardiness affects the people around you, and hopefully motivate you to make changes.‎ ‎2. Track Your Habits Use a timer to record how long various tasks in your daily routine take to complete, from showering in the morning to driving to work to walking the dog.‎ Recording your habits in this way will allow you to see just how successful you are at being on time or how much of a challenge it actually is. 37 ‎ ‎3. Under-Schedule Yourself Punctual people aren’t necessarily less busy than people hardwired to show up late— 38 . If you’re constantly late, you may be overextending yourself or overestimating your capabilities.‎ ‎4. 39 ‎ Often people are late because their previous engagement ran too long. When you begin a new task, whatever it is, set a clear stop time. This will help you stick to your commitments and ensure you don’t lose track of time.‎ ‎5. Set Reminders and Alarms Gradually shape your world to make time more of a front-and-center concept in your life. One way of doing that? Create reminders for yourself.‎ Experts recommend that sticky notes and calendar notifications can all help you stay on track and on time. 40 ‎ A. They also suggested setting your clocks five minutes early to trick yourself into being timely.‎ B. This will give you a better idea of how you can adjust your schedule to your routine.‎ C. Another approach is to ask others how they feel about your constant lateness.‎ D. Set Time Barriers for Tasks.‎ E. Before you go to sleep, organize your work materials, lay out an outfit and pack your lunch.‎ F. They’re just more realistic about what they can accomplish.‎ G. Get Organized and Plan Ahead.‎ 第三部分 英语知识运用 第一节 完型填空（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四个选项（A、B、C和D)中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。‎ Have you ever heard of an old saying?
