However, today gap year refers mostly to a year taken between high school and college.‎ ‎ During this gap year, American students engage in advanced academic courses, extra-academic courses and non-academic courses, such as yearlong pre-college math courses, language studies, learning a trade, art studies, volunteer work, travel, internships(实习), sports and more.‎ ‎ British and European students, however, take a much more vacation style approach to the “Gap Year” by generally working for 3-6 months and then traveling throughout the globe for the remaining time before college begins. This is intended to expand the mind, personal confidence, experiences, and interests before college.‎ ‎ Let’s look at the gap year in the following countries:‎ Denmark ‎ Denmark has tried to limit the number of students who take a year out, punishing students who delay their education to travel abroad or work full-time. In 2015, it was announced that fewer students than before had taken a year out.‎ India ‎ In India, the practice of taking time out after high school education, popularly called a drop ‎ year, has been on a quick rise in recent years, primarily students deciding to enroll in coaching institutions to prepare themselves for rigorous(严格的)college entrance examinations. However, using that year for travel is still not common.‎ Republic‎ of ‎Korea ‎ In republic of Korea, gap year is defined as time for the youth to think about directions of their lives by going through gap year programs such as voluntary activity, career exploration, education, having a relationship, internship and enterprise while he/she pauses studying.‎ United Kingdom ‎ In the United Kingdom a year out is a common choice before university, again to travel or volunteer, gaining life experience. All universities seem to welcome gap year applicants, no different from going straight to university from previous education.‎ ‎21. Today a gap year is mainly taken by___________.‎ ‎ A. high school graduates B. high school students ‎ C. college graduates D. college students ‎22. American students take a gap year mainly to ____________.‎ ‎ A. improve themselves B. make some friends ‎ C. make some money D. relax themselves ‎23. In which country is a gap year the most popular?‎ ‎ A. India B. Denmark ‎ C. United Kingdom D. ‎Republic‎ of ‎Korea ‎24. What’s the passage mainly about?‎ ‎ A. The benefits of a gap year B. The ways to take a gap year ‎ C. Why people take a gap year D. An introduction to a gap year ‎ B ‎ My dad was in the Air Force. When I was a kid, we moved every few years. That meant a lot of good-byes. It also meant getting used to a whole new community and a whole new school each time we moved. I can still feel what it was like to have to walk into the new school---that sinking feeling in my belly, that heaviness in my throat. It would always take time for me to learn how everything worked, what was cool and what not. It was always a struggle to find where I could fit in.‎ ‎ Already shy, I didn’t have much self-confidence in my friend-making abilities. I was the girl walking in the halls with her head down, panicking. When I spoke, you could hardly hear my soft voice. I was nervous and doubted myself a lot.‎ ‎ It was very hard not having a history with everyone else. I was an outsider. But what I did have was soccer. Wherever I went, I knew that I could fit it with the soccer ball. The soccer team meant a familiar place and immediate friends for me. I could express myself and feel good about myself on the field. Playing hard helped to get rid of all my nervousness.‎ ‎ Throughout our lives, our self-respect goes down when we feel like a failure, and it goes up when we feel successful. Doing something well, being praised, and feeling loved goes a long way. We all need to explore opportunities where we can be good at something and feel good about ourselves. Physical activity and sport participation is a terrific way to build up our sense of self-confidence and self-worth.‎ ‎25. How did the author feel about moving to a new school?‎ ‎ A. Delighted B. Stressed C. Thrilled D. Uninterested ‎26. How did soccer help the author fit in?‎ ‎ A. It made her physically strong ‎ B. It improved her school performance ‎ C. It helped build her self-confidence ‎ D. It enabled her to know herself better ‎27. According to the author, one’s self-confidence grows when one ___________.‎ ‎ A. gets challenged ‎ B. has a history with others ‎ C. participates in sports ‎ D. feels appreciated C ‎ Parents may think they’re smart about where they store medicines, but their kids are smarter. Nearly 60,000 young children are rushed to the hospital every year after getting into medicines not meant for them, according to a new report from Safe Kids Worldwide.‎ ‎ The report finds little connection between what parents know about storing medicines safely and what they actually do. Nine out of 10 parents know that medicines should be stored up and ‎ away out of reach and sight, but 7 out of 10 of them admit not doing that. They leave medicines out on kitchen counters, sinks and sofas, believing babies and toddlers(学步的儿童)aren’t tall enough or strong enough to reach them. Unfortunately, they probably can. Children as young as a month have ended up in an emergency department because they’d been poisoned by getting into a medicine that was left within reach.‎ Most poisonings related to medicines---particularly among babies and toddlers---occur within their home. Kids develop rapidly and they want to explore their environment. At certain ages they have a lot of hand-to-mouth activity, and so it’s very common for them to explore their environment and then try to taste what they find.‎ The new Safe Kids worldwide report includes a survey of 2,000 parents with children under age 6. While the number of children visiting an emergency department for accidental poisonings had declined since the 2010 maximum, the decline has slowed in recent years.‎ Prescription and over-the-counter medicines cause the most severe poisonings, but vitamins and supplements(补充品)can also cause problems. There are steps families can take to lower the risk for an accidental medicine poisoning.‎ ‎28.Why are children poisoned according to the text?‎ A. Some of the medicines at home taste nice B. There is something poisonous in medicines C. Kids have easy access to medicines at home D. Kids are curious to explore the environment ‎29.What can we learn from the text?‎ A. Vitamins and supplements can do good to kids B. The team made a survey of 2,000 kids under age 6‎ C. 600 parents surveyed could keep medicines properly D. Kids are usually smart at storing medicines at home ‎30. What is the author likely to write about after the last paragraph?‎ ‎ A. Factors contributing to the mistakes parents have made ‎ B. Tips that parents can follow to avoid a medicine poisoning ‎ C. Examples related to vitamin and supplement poisonings ‎ D. Impressive recovery results in helping patients ‎31.What could be the best title for the text?‎ A. Parents’ Casual Behavior Leads to Kids Poisoned B. The Number of Kids Poisoned Has Declined Lately C. Nearly 60,000 Children Are Poisoned by Medicines D. Kids Are Facing the Risk of Being Poisoned at Home D ‎ Research shows that isolation(隔绝，孤立)is bad for us and associated with certain diseases including depression, high blood pressure and heart disease. Yet teenagers seek isolation by using the device of our times---a screen, screens of all kinds. However, in whatever form, screens are addictive, and addictive from an early age. Research has shown that given the chance, six-month-old babies prefer screens to real human faces.‎ ‎ Hand in hand with this addiction to screens, we are seeing an explosion of teenage mental health problems. Social media claims to be inclusive, keeping you connected. But it’s not. It isolates you from real people. Screens have evn been described as being poisonous for teenagers.‎ ‎ Psychologist Jean Twenge, a professor at San Diego State University, believes today’s teenagers are “on the edge” of a major mental health crisis and requestes, “do anything that doesn’t involve a screen”. The problem is, she claims, children born between 1995 and 2012 have grown up with a smart phone in their hands, and it has “changed every aspect” of their lives. The number of teenagers who actually see their friends frequently has dropped by more than 40% since 2000. In 2015, only 56% of 17-year-old went on a date, down from 85%. Modern teenagers are slower to learn to drive, or earn money and spend more time at home. They’re “on their phone, in their room, alone and often depressed”, she says.‎ ‎ Some critics, however, say we should encourage our children to spend more time online. Robert Hannigan, former director of GCHQ, said in August that Britain is badly short of engineers and computer scientists, and urged children to develop cyber skill to compete in the digital economy.‎ ‎ I’ m not the first to say that social media is inferior to real human contact, and harms mental health. Studies show teens who spend three hours a day online are 35% more likely to suicide(自杀).‎ ‎ The suicide rate among girls aged 12 to 14 has more than doubled in a decade.‎ ‎32. Why does Jean Twenge call on teens to surf online less?‎ A. Social media is inclusive and keeps them connected B. Social media has changed every aspect of their lives C. Social media does great harm to their eyesight D. Social media is addictive and leads to mental problems ‎33. Robert Hannigan may agree that we should ____________.‎ ‎ A. allow teens to isolate themselves from real social contact ‎ B. call on teens to do anything that doesn’t involve a screen ‎ C. urge children to contact people face to face instead of online ‎ D. encourage children to spend more time on the Internet ‎34. What does the underlined phrase “inferior to” in the last paragraph refer to?‎ ‎ A. Worse than B. As effective as C. More useful than D. Similar to ‎35. What may be the best title for the text?‎ ‎ A. Teenagers seeking isolation using screens ‎ B. Social media causing teenagers mental health crisis ‎ C. Teenagers’ heavy addiction to social media ‎ D. Different opinions on teenagers surfing online 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 ‎ In the United Kingdom, vegetarianism(素食主义)is becoming very popular, with around 3 million people in the UK vegetarian. 36 However, here is France, I often struggle to find a meat-and-fish-free choice on a menu, which can make eating in restaurants a bit of a challenge.‎ ‎ People are often curious why I choose to limit my diet in the way I do. There are many reasons why people may choose to be vegetarian. Many people give up meat or fish simply because they do not enjoy the taste. 37 They believe it has a bad effect on the environment or it is bad for health. Furthermore, many people are vegetarians to avoid wasting food. In addition, some religious beliefs forbid eating certain meats. 38 ‎ ‎ ___39 However, although sometimes vegetarian food requires a little more creativity, it is very easy to enjoy a healthy and a balanced diet as a vegetarian especially when meat ‎ substitutes(替代品)are becoming much easier to get.‎ ‎ Meat-free Mondays is a campaign to encourage every family to eat just one main meal a week which does not contain meat or fish. 40 This is a great challenge for anyone who would like to try out some vegetarian cooking and is a wonderful way to contribute to slowing down climate change.‎ A. Young kids prefer meat and fish than vegetables.‎ B. Some feel that killing animals for meat is wrong C. Vegetarian food can be delicious and easy to prepare D. The city where I grew up is known as the “vegetarian capital” of the UK E. Overall, vegetarians usually have different reasons for choosing their lifestyle F. The purpose of the campaign is to protect the environment and to improve health G. A common misunderstanding about vegetarian food is that it is not tasty or healthy. ‎ 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，掌握其大意，然后从各题所给的四个选项（A、B、C、D）中选出最佳选项。‎ ‎ One year my children came home from school asking where we were going on your summer vacation.

One day, it took us a whole day to tour the British‎ ‎Museum. So enjoyable a time did we have that it was not until we went back to the hotel where we stayed that we realized my father’s wallet was missing. We were more than worried because in addition to a large sum of money, the wallet also contained our passports and air tickets. We were at a loss as for what to do when the manager of the hotel came, followed by a boy, who picked up the wallet by chance. We were so relieved and grateful. Later, we learned from the manager that he is a student from your school, named Alvin Hill. ‎ Again, I would like to express my heartfelt gratitude to him and the school he attends. ‎ Yours, ‎ Li Hua
