All grades from beginners to advanced are welcome. The classes are suitable for both men and women and several women have obtained their black belt.‎ TUESDAY AND THURSDAY ‎ ‎6.00—8.00 p.m.‎ WEAVER HOUSE GYM ‎ FIRST LESSON FREE Hardly any of us have experienced real violence, but, over the last few years, attacks on innocent people have increased. Each of us has some ability to defend ourselves, and by learning a form of self-defence, we are not only increasing that ability, but also doing something to build our own sense of respect. Karate will show you a lot of simple and effective techniques to protect yourself, giving you increase self-confidence.‎ Far too many people think martial arts (武术) are about violence. Martial arts training is based on a lot of respect, self-discipline, self-control and non-violence. We learn basic etiquette, courtesy and tolerance. Good manners and consideration for others are expected at all times.‎ Karate is the practice of blocking and striking techniques for the purpose of self-defence, health and self-development. Karate exercises the entire body. Techniques are practised on both sides of the body, therefore muscle imbalances do not occur and the strength, coordination, flexibility and agility of both sides of the body are improved. Regular training in Karate improves the body’s physical endurance and flexibility. It also helps concentration and produces the mental calm and assurance that come from knowing we can defend ourselves.‎ Karate has many benefits but they do not come easily or overnight. Training requires ongoing commitment and hard work. Some of you will give up, but a few of you will get your black belt.‎ 56. The passage is mainly intended to_________.‎ A. tell readers the benefits of Karate B. attract readers to join the club C. encourage people to get their black belt D.correct people’s misunderstand of Karate ‎57.What can be learned about University Shotokan Karate Club?‎ A. More men than women have been its members.‎ B. It tests members to see what level they are at.‎ C. Members don’t need to pay for the lessons.‎ D. It offers 4 hours of lessons every week.‎ ‎58. According to the passage, which of the following statements about Karate is true?‎ A. It cultivates people’s respect for themselves as well as for others.‎ B. It involves people’s arm muscles more than body muscles C. It makes people healthy physically instead of mentally.‎ D. It focuses as much on self-defence as on attack.‎ B ‎·12·‎ Nothing draws attention to your new product like using it to send fast food into space. In June, Arizona-based World View demonstrated the potential of its pioneering stratollite--a sort of mini satellite that uses a balloon to take goods into the stratosphere (平流层)--by partnering with KFC to ferry a 5-ounce piece of fried chicken 77,000 feet into the desert sky. “We took a chicken sandwich, launched it into space for 17 hours, and when it came back, it was perfect,” says World View CEO Jane Poynter.‎ Poynter’s final goal is to send tourists to the edge of space, tied to the company’s balloons, and to make the final frontier more accessible for research. Stratollites are inexpensive, compact, and easy to operate, ideal for monitoring weather patterns and providing military reconnaissance（侦察） or emergency communications during natural disasters. They can also do what traditional satellites can’t: spend months above a specific location without moving.‎ Though Poynter did not formally train as an engineer, she has spent her career in leading space research. The British native trained her skills as a technical manager while part of Biosphere2, an Arizona research facility built to test a self-enclosed, self-sufficient ecosystem. Its creators hoped it could one day be adapted for use in space. She spent two years in the early 1990s sealed inside with seven others, experiencing everything from oxygen failures to colleagues’ emotional breakdowns.‎ Poynter met her future husband, Taber MacCallum, on the project, and afterward, the couple formed Paragon Space Development. They began devising biospheres that could support plant and animal life in orbit （太空轨道）.“We showed it’s possible for animals to live in an environment they are not used to: microgravity,” Poynter says.‎ In 2014, Poynter and Maccallum achieved another first. They led the engineering team that helped former Google exec Alan Eustace skydive from the edge of the stratosphere. That’s when it hit them: The balloon-parachute system they designed for Eustace could be modified for tourism and research. So they formed World View, with MacCallum serving as chief technical officer.‎ The company has a contract with NASA to determine if the system could someday be used to gather data on Mars. “Taking stratollites and flying them on other planets,” Poynter says, “that’s definitely a part of the big dream.”‎ ‎59. Stratollites are different from traditional satellites in that they can _______.‎ A. stay motionless in space B. move about in a bigger area C. provide emergency communications D. survive better in a situation without gravity ‎60. What can be inferred from the passage about Biosphere 2?‎ A. It was adapted from a spaceship that used to work in space.‎ B. It was intended to become an ideal place for space research.‎ C. The participants all experienced some kind of emotional breakdown.‎ D. The participants were isolated from the outside world for some time.‎ ‎61. What does the pronoun “it” (in paragraph 5) refer to?‎ A. Poynter and Maccallum have helped Alan Eustace to skydive.‎ B. Maccallum will serve as a chief technical officer in World View.‎ C. The system designed for Eustace can be used for more purposes.‎ D. Poynter and Maccallum hope to achieve more firsts in their career.‎ ‎62. What is World View’s big dream?‎ A. Partnering with NASA to do research on other planets.‎ B. Using balloons to send tourists or researchers into space.‎ ‎·12·‎ C. Giving people more opportunities to try extreme sports in space.‎ D. Working with food companies to send food to astronauts in space.‎ C For something so essential, water management is all too often lacking in advancement. It is about playing a waiting game—waiting for the rains to return in time and the reservoirs (水库） and groundwater reserves to refill. ‎ Often the rains do come. But in long-term cases waiting is highly dangerous. Witness the Cape Town water crisis. When “day zero” strikes—the day engineers turn off taps, in about 10 weeks----many will suffer, causing, potentially, social unrest and instability.‎ The reservoirs that supply water to the city of Cape Town are nearly empty due in part to below-average rainfall for many years, but also, and maybe more importantly, because of increased “abstraction”---the city has grown (by almost 80% since 1995) and needs more water. But this is hardly a unique situation, with climate change projected to result in more frequent extreme droughts and rises in urban population putting ever more pressure on limited water resources. In short, the climate is changing and cities are growing.‎ Cape Town might just be the right moment to make a shift. Public awareness is high, hence there is political willingness to come up with solutions. Often these are of the engineering variety. In Cape Town desalination plants (脱盐工厂） are rapidly being built. But such a solution is expensive and often unsustainable. It has serious environmental impact and can increase water demand, leading to problems for future generations. The truth is that engineering options are seen as easier and less politically sensitive than actually managing water demand.‎ More importantly, we have to change our ways. Look at Melbourne, for example. The city was severely hit by the millennium drought between 2001 and 2010, but it managed to reduce per-person water consumption by nearly 50% over this period. Some of the temporary water use restrictions were made permanent, transforming the city. The use of recycled water, reducing leaks, increasing efficiency and, most importantly, long-term planning all played a part. Public awareness and political will need to be in harmony. So, yes, householders should conserve water but policymakers can’t be afraid to take action，even when it includes (initially) unpopular measures.‎ There’s no need for fatalism—we can prevent future water crises, instead of waiting for the rains to come or providing expensive, short-term engineering solutions. Or, even worse, going back to business as usual when the drought is over.‎ 63. According to the author, what has caused the Cape Town water crisis?‎ A.Extreme droughts and demands for reservoirs.‎ B.Below-average rainfall and “day zero” strikes.‎ C. Climate change and urban development.‎ D. Social unrest and instability.‎ ‎64. What does the author think of Cape Town’s building desalination plants?‎ A. It may not win political support. B. It fails to be a permanent solution.‎ C. It requires more advanced technology. D. It will not be understood by the public.‎ ‎65. What does “fatalism”（in the last paragraph) most probably mean?‎ A. A problem whether engineering solution are feasible.‎ B. A belief that something unexpected will happen.‎ ‎·12·‎ C. A doubt whether the rains will come or not.‎ D. A feeling that we can’t take control. ‎ ‎66. Which of the following solutions to water crises is the author most likely to agree to?‎ A. Finding more accurate ways to forecast when it rains.‎ B. Restricting the amount of the water that people use.‎ C. Looking for temporary water supplies.‎ D. Increasing groundwater pumping.‎ D Scientists should be allowed to change a person’s DNA in ways that will be passed on to future generations, but only to prevent serious and strongly heritable (遗传) diseases, according to a new report from the National Academy of Sciences and the National Academy of Medicine. However, making changes to these genes in order to improve or change traits such as strength, intelligence or beauty should remain off-limits, the report authors concluded. ‎ Changing the so-called germline (种系) is illegal in the United States. It has largely been considered ethically off-limits here as well, at least while bioethicists and scientists considered the unforeseen effects and unexamined moral dilemmas of using new gene-editing technologies.‎ However, scientists have moved forward aggressively to explore the possibility of changing disease genes in other adult human cells with a revolutionary technique known as CRISPR-Cas9. It is widely believed that gene editing of this sort could treat patients with metabolic (新陈代谢的) disorders, certain cancers, and a range of other diseases that arise from genetic mutations (突变) — without changing the germline.‎ Last year, Chinese scientists launched a trial that uses CRISPR-Cas9 in a treatment for lung cancer. While the trial’s outcome is awaited with high anticipation, scientists outside China have expressed concern that ethical reservations in the United States and Europe will put them at a disadvantage.‎ CRISPR-Cas9 makes gene editing more straightforward, more precise and far more widespread. As such, the National Academies’ report acknowledges that changing heritable DNA in eggs, sperm and early embryos is fast becoming “a realistic possibility that deserves serious consideration.”‎ The 22-member panel of scientists and bioethicists who produced the report completed a comprehensive review of the issues raised by that prospect.‎ Clinical trials involving germline editing should only be pursued to treat diseases that cannot be improved with “reasonable alternatives,” the 22-member panel of scientists and bioethicists said. In addition, they added, scientists should convincingly demonstrate they are targeting a gene that either causes or strongly makes a carrier likely to suffer from a serious disease or condition, and that they have weighed the likely risks and benefits of changing that gene.‎ Finally, scientists should conduct long-term follow-up studies to know how gene editing affects the next generations. Public debate and discussion about the technology should continue, the panel added.‎ ‎67. In what circumstances can scientists change a person’s DNA?‎ A. Making a person look much younger.‎ B. Protecting future generations from some heritable diseases. ‎ C. Using the most advanced gene-editing technologies.‎ D. Changing the germline for a better function. ‎ ‎68. What is the advantage of CRISPR-Cas9?‎ ‎·12·‎ A. It can treat diseases more precisely without changing the germline. ‎ B. It can successfully cure people of most deadly diseases.‎ C. It can change genes in adult human cells. ‎ D. It can stop genetic mutations. ‎ ‎69. What possible conclusion can be drawn according to the passage? ‎ A. Future generations will live longer and become more intelligent. ‎ B. Chinese scientists created CRISPR-Cas9 and put it into use. ‎ C. The gene editing is strictly forbidden for moral dilemmas. ‎ D. The gene editing research is still at the primary stage. ‎ ‎70. What does this report mainly talk about?‎ A. A new gene-editing technology and concerns about it.‎ B. A germline-editing technology and approval for it.‎ C. Clinical trials of gene editing and social values of them. ‎ D. Some germline clinical trials and scientific effects of them.‎ 第四部分 任务型阅读 （共10小题；每小题1分，满分10分）‎ 请认真阅读下列短文，并根据所读内容在文章后表格中的空格里填入一个最恰当的单词。 ‎ 注意：请将答案写在答题纸上相应题号的横线上。每个空格只填一个单词。‎ When it’s Not Quite a Wonderful Life A 2011 study by researchers might make you think twice about holiday difficult emotions. They followed dozens of bus drivers for two weeks, looking to see when they flashed fake versus sincere smiles at their passengers. The results showed that on days when the drivers tried to put on an act and pretend to be in a good mood, their actual moods got worse. This was especially true for women. And another research suggests that people who really want to be happy actually obtain less happiness from positive experiences, apparently because their expectations are too high. Again and again, trying to gain happiness despite no preference seems to have the opposite result. ‎ The results of the bus-driver study can be explained by researchers Oliver John and James Gross, who found that negative feelings like sadness or anger only intensify when we try to suppress (压制) them. That’s because we feel bad about ourselves when our outward appearance contradicts how we truly feel inside. What’s more, when we suppress emotions like sadness, we deny them the important function they serve. If we don’t recognize sadness we might not take the necessary steps to improve the situation. Expressing our sadness can also get comfort and compassion from those who care about us, strengthening our bonds. ‎ Recently, scientists have also been paying special attention to the benefits of mindfulness. When you respond mindfully to an emotional trigger (诱因) , you pause rather than reacting, and then you can escape getting troubled by thoughtfulness. Rather than scold yourself, you simply notice what you’re feeling without judging that response as right or wrong. Studies suggest that a mindful response to a negative event reduces the amount of sadness we experience, is associated with less depression and anxiety, and may even carry physiological benefits, such as lowering our heart rates. ‎ Unavoidably, the holidays will bring a mix of highs and lows. Perhaps the most important lesson to keep in mind is that this variety of emotions might be the best thing possible for your overall well-being.‎ That was the key insight from a study published in 2014 by a team of researchers from Yale ‎ ‎·12·‎ University. Their survey of more than 37,000 people found that, after experiencing a greater variety and abundance of emotions consistently linked to lower depression, people took less medication, visited doctors less frequently, spent fewer days in hospitals, practiced better dietary and exercise habits, and smoked less.‎ In other words, sadness, anger, and other similar emotions are like so many other parts of the holidays, they’re nothing to fear. Just make sure you’re balancing them with lighter experiences. ‎ When it’s Not Quite a Wonderful Life Main Content Detailed information Research findings about negative feelings ‎ l A study on bus drivers shows pretending to be in a good mood leads to an (71) ▲ result. ‎ l Another research suggests the (72) ▲ expectations we have, the less happiness we obtain. ‎ l Two other researchers found suppressing negative feelings only intensify them, due to the (73) ▲ between outward appearance and inward feelings. ‎ l If we (74) ▲ the function negative feelings serve, we won’t recognize them or take measures to improve the situation.‎ l Expressing negative feelings makes us feel comforted and sympathized, bettering our relationship.‎ A (75) ▲ to ‎ dealing with negative feelings: a mindful ‎ response to them l The (76) ▲ of mindfulness: ‎ 1.

The same man, who dislikes his job in the factory or even in the office, may work hard at the weekend, painting the house or digging the garden.‎ ‎ What is the reason, then? In most cases, it is because these people simply do not enjoy the job they are ‎ ‎·12·‎ doing. It does not give them any real satisfaction. It may be quite easy, like making up wooden boxes, but it is very boring. Very often they are doing a job which is just a small part of a much larger one, such as attaching a door handle to a car. But the part they play in actually making the car is so small that they can never say: I have made something!‎ ‎ Yet in modern society somebody has to do ordinary jobs such as cleaning streets because this is the way society is organized. No matter how ordinary a job is, it plays a part in society and therefore deserves our due respect. Society cannot function a single day without the“dull and boring”jobs.‎ ‎[写作内容]‎ ‎1.以约30个词概括上文的主要内容。‎ ‎2.以约120个词谈谈你对平凡工作的想法,内容包括:‎ ‎(1)描述清洁工工作的艰辛;‎ ‎(2)假如没有清洁工,环境会变得如何?‎ ‎(3)你对平凡工作者的看法。‎ ‎[写作要求]‎ ‎1.作文中可以使用亲身经历或虚构的故事,也可以参照阅读材料的内容,但不得直接引用原文中的句子。‎ ‎2.作文中不能出现真实姓名和学校名称。‎ ‎_______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________‎ ‎11月考参考答案 一、听力：1—5 BBACC 6—10 AABCB 11—15 CAABB 16—20 ACCBA 二、单选：21-25 DADDB 26-30 BCBBB 31-35 BDADC ‎ 三、完型：36-40 DCBDA 41-45 BBDAA 46-50 DBCAB 51-55CCCBD 四、阅读：56-58BDA 59-62ADCB 63-66CBDB 67-70BADA 五、任务型：71.opposite / opposing  72.higher  73. contradiction  74. deny / refuse / reject  75.solution  76. interpretation / meaning / explanation  77.scolding/ blaming  78. saves/ frees   79. visits   80.negative/bad 六、书面表达：‎ Possible version:‎ Demonstrating a phenomenon that the majority of citizens consider an ordinary job boring or even valueless, the passage highlights the importance of mundane and sundry jobs in society and asks for our respect for these jobs.‎ Cleaners, the most“well-known”“ordinary”workers, are confronted with numerous hardships while doing their share. When the city is still sleeping soundly before the dawn comes on, it is the cleaners who sweep the floors or streets in spite of the chilly wind or the heavy rain. When the scenic spots are contaminated with different kinds of garbage after the sun sets, it is the cleaners who deal with the pollution despite the stink.‎ ‎ Were there no cleaners, an inevitable deterioration in environment would occur. Undoubtedly, the ‎·12·‎ ‎ streets would be full of disgusting rubbish with rats or flies here and there. What’s worse, with natural environment degrading, citizens would suffer from the spread of diseases, a horrible disaster that could be devastating.‎ ‎ From my perspective, ordinary jobs are anything but ordinary in contemporary society. For one thing, these jobs, with essential functions respectively, contribute to the achievement of various ecological, economic, and social goals that humanity has set for itself. For another, these jobs, which are worth our enthusiasm and respect, also provide a chance to realize our value or fulfill our dreams.‎ ‎·12·‎
