What you have just read is a ________.‎ A. note B. report C. schedule D. poster ‎22. What is going to take place on 2 February 2018?‎ A. A big event to welcome a Chinese new year.‎ B. A social gathering to raise money for wildlife.‎ C. A party for close friends to meet and have fun.‎ D. A meeting of Kwun Tong High School students.‎ ‎23.

It’s unnecessary to take soft drinks with you.‎ C. Free digital cameras are provided for everybody.‎ D. Festival food will be served without extra charge.‎ B I left university with a good degree in English Literature, but no sense of what I wanted to do. Over the next six years, I was treading water, just trying to earn an income. I tried journalism, but I didn’t think I was any good, then finance, which I hated. Finally, I got a job as a rights assistant at a famous publisher. I loved working with books, although the job that I did was dull.‎ I had enough savings to take a year off work, and I decided to try to satisfy a deep-down wish to write a novel. Attending a Novel Writing MA course gave me the structure I needed to write my first 55,000 words.‎ It takes confidence to make a new start — there’s a dark period in-between where you’re neither one thing nor the other. ‎ You’re out for dinner and people ask what you do, and you’re too ashamed to say, “Well, I’m writing a novel, but I’m not quite sure if I’m going to get there.” My confidence dived. Believing my novel could not be published, I put it aside.‎ Then I met an agent（代理商）who said I should send my novel out to agents. So, I did and, to my surprise, got some wonderful feedback. I felt a little hope that I might actually become a published writer and, after signing with an agent, I finished the second half of the novel.‎ The next problem was finding a publisher. After two-and-a-half years of no income, just waiting and wondering, a publisher offered me a book deal - that publisher turned out to be the one I ‎ once worked for.‎ It feels like an unbelievable stroke of luck -of fate, really. When you set out to do something different, there’s no end in sight, so to find myself in a position where I now have my own name on a contract（合同）of the publisher -to be a published writer - is unbelievably rewarding（有回报的）.‎ ‎25. What does the underlined part in Paragraph 1 mean?‎ A. I was waiting for good fortune.‎ B. I was trying to find an admirable job.‎ C. I was being aimless about a suitable job.‎ D. I was doing several jobs for more pay at a time.‎ ‎26. The author decided to write a novel ______ .‎ A. to finish the writing course B. to realize her own dream C. to satisfy readers’ wish D. to earn more money ‎27. How did the writer feel halfway with the novel?‎ A. Disturbed. B. Ashamed.‎ C. Confident. D. Uncertain.‎ ‎28. What does the author mainly want to tell readers in the last paragraph?‎ A. It pays to stick to one’s goal.‎ B. Hard work can lead to success.‎ C. She feels like being unexpectedly lucky.‎ D. There is no end in sight when starting to do something.‎ C Life in the Clear Transparent animals let light pass through their bodies the same way light passes through a window. These animals typically live between the surface of the ocean and a depth of about 3,300 feet---as far as most light can reach. Most of them are extremely delicate and can be damaged by a simple touch. Sonke Johnsen, a scientist in biology, says, “These animals live through their life alone. They never touch anything unless they’re eating it, or unless something is eating them.”‎ And they are as clear as glass. How does an animal become see-through? It s trickier than you might think.‎ The objects around you are visible because they interact with light. Light typically travels in a straight line. But some materials slow and scatter (散射) light, bouncing it away from its original path. Others absorb light, stopping it dead in its tracks. Both scattering and absorption make an object look different from other objects around it, so you can see it easily.‎ But a transparent object doesn’t absorb or scatter light, at least not very much. Light can pass through it without bending or stopping. That means a transparent object doesn’t look very different from the surrounding air or water. You don’t see it you see the things behind it.‎ To become transparent, an animal needs to keep its body from absorbing or scattering light. Living materials can stop light because they contain pigments (色素) that absorb specific colors of light. But a transparent animal doesn’t have pigments, so its tissues won’t absorb light. According to Johnsen, avoiding absorption is actually easy. The real challenge is preventing light from scattering.‎ Animals are built of many different materials---skin, fat, and more---and light moves through each at a different speed. Every time light moves into a material with a new speed, it bends and scatters. Transparent animals use different tricks to fight scattering. Some animals are simply very small or extremely flat. Without much tissue to scatter light, it is easier to be see-through. Others build a large, clear mass of non-living jelly-like (果冻状的) material and spread themselves over it.‎ Larger transparent animals have the biggest challenge, because they have to make all the different tissues in their bodies slow down light exactly as much as water does. They need to look uniform. But how they’re doing it is still unknown. One thing is clear: for these larger animals, staying transparent is an active process. When they die, they turn a non-transparent milky white.‎ ‎29. According to Paragraph 1,transparent animals .‎ A. stay in groups B. can be easily damaged C. appear only in deep ocean D. are beautiful creatures ‎30. The underlined word “dead” in Paragraph 3 means .‎ A. silently B. gradually C. regularly D. completely ‎31. One way for an animal to become transparent is to .‎ A. change the direction of light travel B. gather materials to scatter light C. avoid the absorption of light D. grow bigger to stop light ‎32. The last paragraph tells us that larger transparent animals .‎ A. move more slowly in deep water B. stay see-through even after death C. produce more tissues for their survival D. take effective action to reduce light spreading D Having a learning disability doesn’t mean you can’t learn, but you’ll need some help and need to work extra hard. If you have a learning disability such as dyslexia or dyscalculia, remember that you are not slow or stupid.‎ Learning disabilities can be genetic. That means they can be passed down in families through the genes, But kids today have an advantage over their parents. Learning experts now know a lot more about the brain and how learning works, and it’s easier for kids to get the help they need.‎ Dyslexia is a learning disability that means a kid has a lot of trouble reading and writing. Kids who have trouble with math may have dyscalculia. Other kids may have language disorders, meaning they have trouble understanding language and understanding what they read.‎ It can be confusing, though. What qualifies as “trouble" enough to be diagnosed as a learning disability? Reading, doing math, and writing letters may be tough for lots of kids at first. But when those troubles don’t fade away and it’s really difficult to make any progress, it’s possible that the kid has a learning disability.‎ Finding out you have a learning disability can be upsetting. You might feel different from everyone else. But the truth is that learning disabilities are pretty common. And if your learning specialist or psychologist has figured out which one you’re facing, you’re on the right track. Now, you can start getting the help you need to do better in school.‎ But for this special help to really work, you’ll need to practice the new skills you’re learning. It may take a lot of efforts every day. That can be a challenge, but you can do it soon, you’ll enjoy the results of all your hard work: more fun and success at school.‎ ‎33. Children are likely to have a learning disability .‎ A. if their parents have the same problem B. if they are not interested in a subject C. if they don’t get help in time D. if they don’t work hard ‎34. How can you know if you have a learning disability?‎ A. Your teacher says you are a slow student.‎ B. You can’t make progress after hard work.‎ C. You have trouble with some lessons at first.‎ D. Your learning style is different from others.‎ ‎35. What’s the main purpose of the text?‎ A. To find out the reasons for the learning disability.‎ B. To get parents to know more about their children.‎ C. To help people know and handle learning disability.‎ D. To ask teachers to help students with learning disability.‎ 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。‎ We all wish we had just a bit more time.
