You can store your travel cards, Bus & Tram‎ ‎Pass, season tickets and credit to pay for journeys as you go.‎ Where to get an Oyster card?‎ There are a number of ways for you to get an Oyster card:‎ ‎·At over 3,900 Oyster Ticket Stop agents ‎·At Tube and London Overground station ticket offices ‎·At some National Rail stations ‎·At London Travel Information Centres ‎·Online at tfl. gov. uk/oyster How to use an Oyster card?‎ To pay the correct fare on Tubes, the DLR, London Overground and National Rail services, you must always touch in on the yellow Oyster card reader at the start of your journey, and touch out at the end.

When using the bus or trams, you must only touch in at the start, but not at the end of your journey.‎ What happens if I don’t visit London very often?‎ Don’t worry.

A. journey       B travel brochure      C. textbook       D. novel B Working women make up nearly half of the U.S.‎ workforce, and 51 percent of professional workers, like doctors, lawyers, nurses and accountants, are female. While climbing the career ladder can be rewarding, it often comes with one big downside: weight gain!‎ New research published this week in the International Journal of Obesity shows that working women are more likely to be overweight, and the more you work, the more pounds you’re likely to pile on. Like many women, I work... a lot! As a self-employed nutrition communications specialist, I sit at my desk, in front of a computer, for hours on end. Sitting alone is one of the worst things you can do for your health, and it’s directly linked to being overweight and increased fatness, so the fact that women in the workforce gain weight isn’t that surprising. If you work, you have less time to move around. Obesity（肥胖症）researchers are revealing many other ways that employment is harmful to your diet and waistline.‎ In the International Journal of Obesity study, some 9,276 Australian women aged 45-50 had their body weight and employment status monitored for two years. Results? Those who worked more than 35 hours were likely to gain weight compared to those who worked fewer hours or were out of the workforce. What’s more, the more hours a woman worked in a week, the more weight she gained. ‎ The authors of the Australian study attribute weight gain among working women to inactivity, lack of time for food preparation, more use of prepared foods, high levels of stress, lack of sleep and consuming more alcohol. I’ll also add in travel, meals eaten out and working at night as other factors that I can find to make balancing work with a healthy diet a challenge.‎ ‎25. The text above is probably taken from ______.‎ A. a sports report                   B. a health and fitness magazine C. a fashion journal               D. an advertisement post ‎26. A woman who works as an accountant is more likely to ______.‎ A. work a full time job               B. have more time to move around C. gain more weight                     D. keep a balanced diet ‎27. Which is NOT the cause of working women weight gaining according to the passage？       ‎ A. Lacking time for food preparation.       B. Taking part in more activities.‎ C. Consuming too much alcohol.              D. Using more prepared food.‎ ‎28. What can be a suitable title for the test?‎ A. Working women more likely pile on pounds.    B. Ways of gaining weight.‎ C. Effects of weight gaining.                               D. Less activity leads to fat. ‎ ‎ C Stephen Hawking, a world famous British physicist, also wrote a children’s book with his daughter. Hawking said the book would be “a bit like Harry Potter” but without the magic. “It explains the wonders of the universe(宇宙),” said Hawking, while he was on a visit to Hong Kong over 10 years ago.‎ Hawking, is probably the world’s most famous scientist after Albert Einstein. He is an expert on black holes. He has put his whole life into digging into the beginning (and the end) of the universe. “My goal is simple,” Hawking once said. “It is to completely understand the universe, why it is as it is and why it is there at all.”‎ Hawking has a bad illness that stops him from moving or talking. For a period of time, he had no way to communicate except by blinking(眨眼).‎ Now he sits on a wheelchair with a computer by his side. To communicate, he moves two fingers to control the computer’s mouse. He selects his words from the screen, which are then spoken by a voice synthesizer(音响合成器).‎ ‎“I have had the disease for most of my life,” Hawking once said. “Yet it has not stopped me from being successful at my work.”‎ Although Hawking is such a disabled man, he made great achievements. He has received many awards and prizes for his work over the years. This includes winning the Albert Einstein Award. It is the highest achievement in theoretical physics(理论物理学).‎ ‎29. In the first paragraph, the book that Stephen Hawking wrote is_____.‎ A. the same as Harry Potter B. is quite different from Harry Potter.‎ C. about the magic D. about science ‎30. From text we can learn _____.‎ A. Hawking is more famous than Einstein ‎ B. Hawking is less famous than Einstein C. Both Hawking and Einstein are very famous D. Neither Hawking nor Einstein is famous ‎31. What does the underlined pronoun “it” stand for?‎ A. The goal. B. The magic. C. The universe. D. The book.‎ ‎32. According to the text, which of the following statements is the fact?‎ A. Hawking has received many awards and prices except the Albert Einstein Award.‎ B. The illness keeps him from moving and talking.‎ C. He communicates with others by speaking.‎ D. The illness stopped him from being successful.‎ D ‎ Square dancing is a form of entertainment and physical exercise, which is a good thing. However, a group of senior Chinese ladies dancing in New York’s Sunset‎ ‎Park were recently faced with noise complaints from nearby residents. The local court even served a summons (传票) related to a certain Ms. Wang. ‎ ‎  The news soon caused heated discussion across China, with many believing the incident to involve a cultural conflict between the East and West, while others view it as a form of discrimination against Chinese in the United States. ‎ ‎  The United States is a diverse society, and in many cases, Chinese dancers are tolerated and even appreciated. Meanwhile, the United States is a society based on the rule of law, and due to cultural differences, local regulations seem to be very different from those in China. As a result, some old Chinese ladies dancing in New York’s Sunset‎ ‎Park found themselves caught in an embarrassing situation. Locals and immigrants from other nations view such noise as a violation of their right to enjoy tranquility. Calling the police is regarded as the most efficient way to solve such a problem. ‎ ‎  Before, these ladies probably did not understand local customs and rules. However, since the incident took place, they should perhaps know a little better next time and keep the noise to a ‎ minimum. People from different nations are often supposed to reach compromises, respecting and tolerating each other. ‎ ‎    Whatever your choice of entertainment, it is important not to affect other people’s lives. Square dancing is only one of many activities during which people should mind their behavior.‎ ‎  As for U.S.‎ police practice, there might still be some room for improvement. Some were said to be rather rude, leading to the so-called “racial discrimination,” which is a sensitive topic in U.S.‎ society. ‎ ‎  If the involved parties could be more tolerant, and solve such problems without involving the court, perhaps immigrants would mix more. ‎ ‎33.The writer mentions the incident in Paragraph 1 to __________.‎ A. show his opinion      B. make complaints ‎ C. bring up the topic      D. criticize the local police ‎34.The underlined word “tranquility” in Paragraph 3 can be replaced by ________.‎ A. entertainment         B. quietness ‎ C. freedom                  D. quality ‎35.What will the senior Chinese ladies most probably do after the incident?‎ A. Go back to China. B. Fight for their right.   ‎ C. Ask America to change its law. D. Keep the noise lower.‎ 第二小节（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啊选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。‎ Ways to Work Smarter, Not Harder No matter how hard we work, it seems that there is never enough time to get all the important tasks done. Rather than working longer, consider working smarter, not harder. Here are some ways to work smarter. Make a careful plan. Just like every organization needs a business plan, an efficient worker needs a work plan.   36  . Schedule your tasks throughout the days, weeks, and months, but do it ahead of time. Set your goals. As a part of your work plan, you should set clear and meaningful goals. Goals should state which tasks are to be completed and when they get completed. Rather than setting firm deadlines, which can lead to pressure and stress, allow a period of time to reach goals.  37 . ‎ ‎38  . Develop a consistent daily work schedule and stick to it! If a typical workday consists of some writing tasks (e-mails, reports), one-on-one meetings, and processing data, set aside specific time each day to accomplish each kind of task. Delegate(分派工作) effectively.   39  . The person who tries to do everything himself or herself not only is overloaded and overstressed, but it is bad for their colleagues by not allowing them to be challenged and grow by taking on important duties. Don't make work harder than it actually is. Much of the pressure is produced by ourselves.   40  . We feel like we should do more. Remember that tasks should be completed step by step. Focus on each step rather than on the entire project, which can help us cut down on feelings that we are overwhelmed(应接不暇). A. Stick to your plan. B. We set unrealistic goals or standards for ourselves. C. Also, take time to reward yourself for achieving a goal. D. Organize your workday. E. We cannot expect to complete the tasks quickly. F. Learn which tasks can be delegated and which need personal attention.  G. It is a well-thought-out plan to help guide and direct work activities.‎ 第三部分 语言知识运用 第一节 ‎（共20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A、 B、 C 和D四个选项中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。‎ My sister and I grew up in a little village in England. Our father was a struggling 41 , but I always knew he was  42 . He never criticized us, but used  43 to bring out our best. He’d say,” If you pour water on flowers, they flourish.
