Women weren’t permitted to have lunch at Mory’s, a dining club where important meetings took place. They were kept from most after-class activities.‎ Yale had been set up to educate “1,000 male leaders” and male students were selected on the basis of their future leadership. But women weren’t expected to be leaders. Instead, they were mainly evaluated（评估）on grit.‎ ‎“It is a kind of determination, a pioneer quality,” Henry Chauncey, one of the Yale teachers, told The New York Times in 1969, “How to find the gritty women? Admit those who were raised with brothers—the more the better!”‎ ‎“We had grit. But that doesn’t mean it wasn’t challenging because Yale wasn’t entirely prepared for us,” said Sally Birdsall, who was the only female in the economy class. She remembers that a professor warned her that he did not want to hear knitting needles（织针）in his class.‎ ‎“I was upset, not because I had a knitting needle, but I was more scared,” she said. “It just gave me a very unwelcome feeling.”‎ In their post-college achievements, they were unusual among American women of their age, and faced challenges that have become familiar to highly educated women today: how to achieve educational, job and family goals when they’re all running on the same clock with men.‎ Eighty-two percent of the surveyed women had children, and their average age of first birth was 33. The national average at the time was 21.‎ Their experiences show how much has changed in 50 years—and how much has not.‎ ‎4. Which of the following can replace the underlined word “gritty” in paragraph 4？‎ A. Pretty. B. Determined. C. Talented. D. Happy.‎ ‎5. Female students with ______ were more likely to be selected by Henry Chauncey.‎ A. better study records B. greater ability to lead C. more brothers D. richer parents ‎6. Why was Sally Birdsall upset in her class?‎ A. She felt she was not welcomed by the teacher.‎ B. She was the only female student in the class.‎ C. She was forbidden to use knitting needles.‎ D. She found the examinations too difficult.‎ ‎7. What can we learn about the first female students from the text?‎ A. They had to attend classes in separated rooms.‎ B. They could not have meals with male students.‎ C. They were expected to achieve higher goals.‎ D. They suffered unfair treatment in the university.‎ C Istman Simon’s factory in western Hungary produces more than one million plastic parts every day. But on a busy morning in one of its large production areas, there is only the sound of machines. Workers have all but disappeared.‎ ‎“We can see human workers being replaced with AI machines. It has already led to job losses,” said Zoltan Laszlo, a Hungarian workers’ leader.‎ Hungary’s economy grew nearly 5 percent last year. Yet the industry lost nearly 23,000 jobs, ending six straight years of employment growth. In the Czech Republic, employment numbers showed a year-on year loss of almost a thousand jobs between July and September of last year. This suggests employment could have decreased for the first time since 2013 over the full year in Eastern Europe.‎ ‎“Workers are becoming more expensive. This is the necessary way to get returns,” said Peter Simon, a manager of Simon Plastics, which is hoping to expand production. But pressured（挤压）by increasing human costs and falling product prices, the plastic industry spent over $ 3 billion on AI machines last year, he added.‎ ‎“Employment numbers are one sign that Eastern Europe’s industry may be at a turning point,” said David Marek, an economist with Deloitte. “The average（平均的）yearly increase in human costs in the Czech Republic, Poland and Hungary is around 10 percent. That is far higher than in many western countries. Factory owners find themselves with little choice but to buy machinery if they want to remain competitive.”‎ Josef Stredula is the head of the Czech-Moravian Trade Unions. He notes that up to 10 percent of jobs could disappear in the next five years.‎ ‎“Big changes are awaiting us,” Stredula said. He added that although AI machines might free people from heavy or boring physical work, it was important to ease the change, for example, by retraining affected workers. “We have to do everything to make the future easier for everyone,” he said.‎ ‎8. What are the first three paragraphs mainly about?‎ A. The problems with Hungary’s economy.‎ B. A factory with advanced AI technology.‎ C. The worries of a Hungarian workers’ leader.‎ D. The increasing job losses in Eastern Europe.‎ ‎9. What does Peter Simon really want to say?‎ A. He is worried about the falling product prices.‎ B. Simon Plastics’ products are very competitive.‎ C. The workers are too expensive in western Hungary.‎ D. The plastic industry has to use more AI machines.‎ ‎10. What is Josef Stredula’s main attitude to the AI machines?‎ A. Doubtful. B. Uncaring. C. Concerned. D. Unsupportive.‎ ‎11. What is the best title for the text?‎ A. AI Machines Are Pushing Workers Out of Their Jobs in Eastern Europe B. Rising Workers’ Payments Lead to Big Job Losses in Eastern Europe C. Eastern European Factories Have Found Ways to Cut Production Costs D. Eastern European Workers Are Freed From Heavy and Boring Works D These days, American children usually can receive about $ 800 each year in tips, according to the American Institute of Public Accountants. Most of American parents tie the tips to the completion of certain daily work.‎ ‎“Kids are tipped for two main purposes,” says Steven Mintz, a historian at the University of Texas at Austin. “First, to give them a sense of independence—to buy candies, cheap toys, and other inexpensive products for themselves—and second, to teach them the value of money.”‎ However, many experts expressed concern that tying payments too closely to daily work can send kids wrong messages about family and personal responsibility. Suniya Luthar, a psychologist at Arizona State University, is doubtful of the idea of paying kids on a per-work basis. “Should we pay a child when he picks up his clothes off the floor?” she asks.‎ Luthar is not opposed to（反对）giving tips, but she thinks it’s important to let children know that certain work has to be done not because it’ll lead to payment, but because it’s part of what you have to do for yourself or as a family member. “In a family, no one’s going to pay you to put your clothes away or tidy up the house,” Luthar says.‎ Other researchers disagree. Heather Beth Johnson, a sociologist at Lehigh University, says, “When we pay kids to do things that humans have always had to do,” she says, “it sends them a message that they have to work for returns.”‎ Johnson adds that upper-middle-class families are usually ready to pay children for things like doing well in school or taking care of the younger children. She says that this sort of tips can make kids happier to carry out more basic responsibilities. “This isn’t happening in poor families,” she adds.‎ ‎12. Suniya Luthar would probably agree to tip the children ______.‎ A. when they pick up their clothes off the floor.‎ B. every time they take care of their brothers C. once they have made big progress in school.‎ D. each time they help clean up the house ‎13. What does Heather Beth Johnson mean?‎ A. Rich children will be more successful.‎ B. Rich parents are too generous with tips.‎ C. Poor parents should not be misled by rich parents.‎ D. Poor kids are less inspired to take on responsibilities.‎ ‎14. What is the text mainly about?‎ A. Ways to tip the children. B. Views on tipping children.‎ C. The main purposes of tips. D. The value of tipping.‎ ‎15. Where is this text most likely from?‎ A. An education report. B. A government guideline.‎ C. A history book. D. An official survey.‎ 第二节（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5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。‎ Effective apologies are those that can be accepted by the offended（被冒犯的）party and help both parties to move on with no unpleasantness. Here are a few key tips on apologizing.‎ Don’t hurry to apologize ‎ 16 But if the other party is still angry at your wrong doing, it may be more effective to wait because their anger may prevent them from accepting your apology. Therefore, the best time to apologize is when one feels ready to accept your apology.‎ Don’t make any excuses Admitting to being wrong is painful and can make people worried that they’re a bad person. 17 For example, “I certainly apologize if I offended anyone” and “I’m very sorry, but in my defense, you started it”.‎ That sort of apology has a special name—nonapology. It uses the form of an apology “I’m sorry” but follows it up by blaming the offended person, implying（暗示）he or she is too sensitive. 18 .‎ Let your body do the talking Face-to-face apologies beat phoned-in, emailed or handwritten ones. Facial expressions, body language, and the tone of voice have all been shown to be important channels that show sincerity when you express regret. Anyone can type “I feel really ashamed”. 19 .‎ A phone call is the second best. You’ll show your feelings with your voice and get quick responses.‎ E-mailed apologies aren’t perfect. They lack warm feelings. 20 This might do harm to the apologizer.‎ A. Sometimes an immediate apology is called for.‎ B. So they often water down their apology with excuses.‎ C. But if you say it live, it’s obvious whether or not you mean it.‎ D. Don’t imply that the other person is wrong to feel upset or angry.‎ E. There is nothing worse in these situations than sincere apologies.‎ F. Even worse, the receivers can forward the written apologies to anyone.‎ G. Being a victim does not automatically change a person into a good person.‎ 第二部分 语言运用（共两节，满分30分）‎ 第一节（共15小题；每小题1分，满分15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。‎ Many years ago, Paul Bunyan was born in the northeastern American state of Maine.

I woke up on time, ate breakfast and did some last minute studying for my first hour math test. I was confident of getting good grades. Then I left my house. Ten minutes later, I sat by my friends on the bus. We were busily chatting about how we spent our weekend when, THUMP！Ryan tripped over someone’s foot and fell onto the floor between the two rows of seats.‎ Everyone on the bus laughed crazily. Ryan picked himself up and made his way to an empty seat. He tried to laugh with us, but his face was red with embarrassment. The rest of the morning flew by. I did well in my math test. I read two more chapters of To Kill a Mockingbird in English class. It wasn’t long before the lunch bell sounded. I met my friends from the cheerleading team in the dining hall. Then I couldn’t help but notice Ryan a few tables over, sitting alone. He caught me looking. I smiled at him quickly and turned away.‎ When we finished eating, we headed out to the courtyard to practice a cheer we wanted to do at that night’s football game. After a little practice, we nailed the cheer, so we decided we only needed to go through it one last time. Again, just like the rest of my day so far, the cheer was going great. I raised my leg for one last toe（脚趾）touch. RIIIPPP！I felt my jeans split down the middle of my backside.‎ I froze. I didn’t know what to do but stayed still. Then I heard people laughing, and I saw them pointing. Trying to cover myself with my hands, I tried to laugh too, but I felt tears began to escape from my eyes.‎ Paragraph 1：‎ Then I saw Ryan walking towards me.

Helen Keller, in 1902.‎ Helen Keller could not see, hear and speak since she was a little baby. She was very sad at first. Later she met a teacher, who taught her to read with her fingers. Having gone through many difficulties, she eventually became a famous writer and published many books. My Life Story was one of them.‎ I want to share it because it is not only a beautifully written book, but it can also provide us with the necessary courage when we are faced with difficulties in our life.

I remembered earlier that morning when he fell and I laughed at him. I thought this would be his chance to return the favor. I felt really ashamed at that time.‎ But Ryun didn’t laugh. Instead, Ryan offered me his jacket to cover my torn jeans. He also offered me his phone so that I could call my mother to bring me another pair of jeans. Mom came to my school immediately and thanked Ryan for his help. I was in embarrassment so I said nothing to him. A few days later, when I saw him again, I managed to find the courage to apologize for laughing at him on the bus that morning. Ryan seized my hand and said I needn’t care too much about that. We became good friends again. My own experience and Ryan’s kind response taught me about sympathy for others. Thanks to Ryan, I can honestly say that Monday was still a great day！‎
