These ruins mark the start of the 4day Inca Trail to Machu Picchu, one of the world's most rewarding hikes. A quicker way to reach the remote Inca city is catching the train to the riverside town of Aguas and then jumping on a bus into the misty mountains.‎ Once the clouds rise from the mountain ridge above the Sacred Valley, the true splendor of Machu Picchu is finally revealed. It's a humbling experience to stand at an altitude of nearly 8，000 feet, and gaze down at the Inca city below. Overlooking the glorious ruins, it's easy to imagine the prosperity(繁荣) this peak must have been almost 600 years ago.‎ It's one of the world's greatest mysteries what became of the Incas who inhabited Machu Picchu. What was once major defense works in the largest empire on Earth was slowly swallowed by the jungle, only to be uncovered a century ago. The Inca dynasty has come and gone, but Incan families still survive in the highlands. These modernday Children of the Sun still speak Quechua and continue to live off the land, although many come to Cusco to sell their crops and woolen textiles.‎ After dusk, when the story of the Incas becomes a whisper in the night, Cusco is covered under a starry blanket. A landscape so gorgeous that it deserves to be preserved for ever.‎ ‎(　　)56. The attraction of Machu Picchu lies in ________．‎ A. its towering staircases B. its changeable weather C. its natural scenery and culture D. its wilderness and inaccessibility ‎(　　)57. We can learn from the passage that ________．‎ A. the Incas like to stay up chatting B. Machu Picchu is a military base C. the Quechua language is lost to the world D. what happened to the Incas remains unknown B In their book, Nine Lies About Work, Buckingham and Goodall make a surprising claim: they argue that giving people feedback(反馈)—in the sense of telling them what you think they're doing right or wrong, and how to do it better—is never worthwhile. This runs counter to a current corporate trend for “radical candour”， for example at Netflix where, according to recent reports, employees' failings are cruelly “sunshined” in front of others. When someone is fired, hundreds of their former colleagues might receive an email, cataloguing their flaws(缺陷). But it also contradicts an assumption most of us bring to our lives as parents and friends—that it's helpful, at least sometimes, and providing you do it nicely, to explain to people where they're making mistakes.‎ Buckingham and Goodall don't just claim you should keep that knowledge to yourself: they claim that you don't possess it, and that, in fact, you probably don't know how a failing employee could most effectively change. It's an old cliché(陈词滥调) of marital advice that you should use “Istatements” rather than “youstatements”， telling the other person how their behaviour makes you feel, rather than attacking them for being selfish and incompetent. The standard theory is that youstatements cause people to respond defensively. But another is that you're a terrible judge of whether someone is selfish or incompetent. As Buckingham writes: “The only area in which humans are an unimpeachable(无懈可击的) source of truth is that of their own feelings and experiences.”‎ Plenty of research shows we're particularly bad at rating people against abstract criteria, which 14‎ ‎ means one common feature of workplace performance reviews—assessing whether an employee is, say, a strategic thinker or team player—is essentially pointless. We should replace this sort of judgment with “reactions”. Don't tell others what you think of their skills, or how good you think they are; instead, focus on describing your experience of their work. You're no good at judging how someone else should change their approach to delivering presentations. But you're the authority on whether a given presentation was persuasive or boring to you.‎ And positive reactions, they show, work better than negative ones: we excel “when people who know us and care about us tell us what they experience and what they feel, and in particular when they see something within us that really works”. There's a deep point here—that the best kind of praise focuses on how someone made you feel，not on evaluating their talent. Praise them for inspiring you, persuading you, or helping you grasp a complex issue. You really are the only objective judge of that.‎ ‎(　　)58. The underlined word “it” in Paragraph 1 refers to “________”．‎ A. giving people feedback B. cataloguing colleagues' flaws C. contradicting parents' assumption D. keeping that knowledge to yourself ‎(　　)59. Feedback is never worthwhile in that ________．‎ A. people tend to defend it B. it is based on theory and truth C. it is subjective and lacks uniqueness D. people will effectively change themselves ‎(　　)60. Which of the following is the most appropriate to comment on others?‎ A. “You have done a good job in the midterm exams.”‎ B. “I am inspired by the creative ideas in your presentation.”‎ C. “You just think of yourself, but never care about others.”‎ D. “I'm sorry to say you have failed to meet my expectations.”‎ C Birds use vocalizations to attract mates, defend territories, and recognize fellow members of their species. But while we know a lot about how variations in vocalizations play out between populations of songbirds, it's far less clear how this variation affects birds such as penguins in which calls are inherited(遗传). A new study from The Auk: Ornithological Advances examines differences in the calls of Little Penguins from four colonies in Australia—nighttime birds for whom vocalizations are more important than visual signals——and finds that differences in habitat, rather than geographic isolation(隔离) or other factors, seem to be the key driver of variation in the sounds these birds use to communicate.‎ Diane ColombelliNégrel and Rachel Smale of Australia's Flinders University recorded calls from four Little Penguin populations across a small area of South Australia, one of which had previously been shown to have slight genetic differences from the other three, and used playback experiments to test penguins' ability to distinguish between calls from different colonies. They found that agonistic calls, which are used in pair displays and aggressive situations, varied among ‎ 14‎ the four populations, and that the calls' characteristics appeared to depend on smallscale differences in the habitat where the penguins lived. However, birds did not discriminate between calls originating from different colonies, which suggests that agonistic calls don't seem to play a role in isolating the two different genetic groups.‎ Penguins living in open habitats produced lowerfrequency calls than those living in habitats with thicker vegetation—the opposite of the trend typically observed in songbirds. The authors think that agonistic calls may be subject to different selective pressures because they're used in close encounters with other birds rather than to communicate across distances, and could also be influenced by variation in the noise level of wind and surf.‎ ‎“I was excited to find that in seabirds, as most of our knowledge in this area comes from studies on songbirds，” says ColombelliNégrel. “This new research suggests that many factors influence call variation in birds, which also depends on the function of the calls. This study highlights that many questions remain and that studies need to investigate more than one factor in conjunction with the function of the calls to fully understand call variation in seabirds.”‎ ‎“This work tells an interesting story of vocal diversification in Little Penguins, and gives insight into how individual and microscale variation effects behavior，” according to Stony Brook University's Heather Lynch, an expert on penguin calls who was not involved in the study. “Nonvocallearning birds are relatively understudied in terms of vocalizations, and it is great to see penguin vocalizations being studied in such a way.”‎ ‎(　　)61. What does the new study find?‎ A. Penguins are born with their calls.‎ B. Penguins communicate by various calls.‎ C. Penguins' calls are influenced by their habitat.‎ D. Penguins' calls can help isolate genetic groups.‎ ‎(　　)62. What are the findings based on?‎ A. The test of penguins' responses to recorded calls.‎ B. The data collected from penguins across Australia.‎ C. Controlled experiments on penguins and songbirds.‎ D. Similarities between the calls of penguins and songbirds.‎ ‎(　　)63. From the passage we can learn that ________．‎ A. openspace songbirds tend to lower their calls B. environmental noises may affect penguins' calls C. birds use agonistic calls in distant communication D. songbirds' agonistic calls vary little between species ‎(　　)64. We can infer from GolombelliNégrel's words that researchers ________．‎ A. will keep track of penguins to preserve them B. have investigated a lot in penguins' calls before C. will have a broader look at differences in penguins' calls D. have determined the function of various calls in penguins D I'm Dina AsherSmith. Growing in Orpington, southeast London, I love being the hunter. The one in pursuit. In training, I'll latch on to the boys and chase them down. Even when I was younger, I tended to race girls who were older than me—at 17 I was racing 30yearolds. It's where I'm comfortable. But the__hunter__can__go__on__to__become__the__hunted. And this year at the 14‎ ‎ World Athletics Championships in Doha, Qatar, I won gold in the 200m. At 23, I became the first British woman to win a world championship sprinting(短跑) title. The morning after the race, I was in the media tent and was told that I'd been mentioned in the Parliament.‎ Track and field is a mental game. You're in your own little world, competing to be the person who can run the fastest in a straight line. My job is to take my body to a place where I think it can't do any more and then keep going. To do that, I need to know my strengths and weaknesses. People get caught up in embarrassment or shame when they're not good at something, but I just don't have that in me. I do have a voice in my head that tells me if I'm not good at things, but it doesn't make me feel negative about myself. I use it to identify where I can improve and then I just keep going to training every day.‎ I've inherited personality traits from my parents that help me in my career. My mum is excitable and when I'm on the track, I have her fire—wanting to go for everything. I always know when I finish a race that I can turn around and find her in the front row, jumping up and down. My dad is more reserved. He has a cool exterior and that's useful for me when I need calmness. I know to look for him a few rows behind my mum. They gave me opportunities to try whatever I was interested in. When I wanted to try golf, my dad bought me cutdown clubs and had me attempting to putt balls(推球入洞) in the back garden. My mum used to play hockey with me outside the house. They took me to so many clubs and classes.‎ I started training with my coach, John Blackie, in my midteens. We met when I was eight as he ran the kids' academy at my running club. Along with my parents, the three of them always emphasized that they just wanted me to be happy. They never pushed me too early. And, as I've got older, I've realized that's unique. When running became serious, I knew that if it all stopped being fun for me, I could stop doing it. They__put__Dina__the__person__before__Dina__the__runner. Yes, the public might be disappointed and the newspapers might have a pop(抨击), but my parents and friends are still going to love me, and my coach is still going to be there. That knowledge allows me to stay relaxed under pressure.‎ Being as prepared as I can be is crucial as it keeps me calm and able to deliver in the moment. When I was studying history at university I'd choose exams over coursework because I knew I could put the work in and perform under pressure. I was studying heavy things every day, like people facing prejudice because of their skin, or women sacrificing their lives for others to have the right to vote. It made me realize how lucky I am that the thing that gets me most frustrated is somebody beating me on the track. While, yes, I make sacrifices—some easy, such as not drinking and going out, and some harder, like restricting the food that I eat—ultimately, what I do is entertainment.‎ Everyone's asking me about Tokyo Olympics, but I'm more focused on today. It's important for me to keep my hopes and dreams separate from other people's. I'm grateful everybody wants me to do well, but my next step has to be for me, not anyone else.‎ ‎(　　)65. What does the underlined sentence in Paragraph 1 probably mean?‎ A. AsherSmith is the victim of the sprinting world.‎ B. AsherSmith becomes the focus of media coverage.‎ C. AsherSmith now runs faster than those she chased.‎ D. AsherSmith is no match for older racers in competitions.‎ ‎(　　)66. How does AsherSmith deal with her weakness?‎ A. She keeps reminding herself of it. B. She keeps training to overcome it.‎ 14‎ C. She chooses to ignore it completely. D. She often gets caught in a dilemma.‎ ‎(　　)67. In AsherSmith's growth, her parents ________．‎ A. changed their personalities B. coached her in various sports C. strengthened their family status D. helped her explore her interests ‎(　　)68. The underlined sentence in Paragraph 4 indicates that AsherSmith's parents and coach ________．　‎ A. prioritize her personal wellbeing B. justify her failure to continue running C. put her interests above the other runners'‎ D. shelter her from the criticism of the media ‎(　　)69. What impact does her university life have on her?‎ A. It makes her lead a cosy life today.‎ B. It allows her to face prejudice bravely.‎ C. It enables her to be better prepared as an athlete.‎ D. It inspires her to fight for women's human rights.‎ ‎(　　)70. What does the passage mainly talk about?‎ A. What it takes to be a gold medal sprinter.‎ B. Why it is hard to rise to fame in sprinting.‎ C. Who one can turn to in pursuit of the dream.‎ D. How parents discipline a sprinting champion.‎ 第Ⅱ卷(非选择题　共35分)‎ 第四部分：任务型阅读(共10小题；每小题1分，满分10分)‎ 请认真阅读下面短文，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：每个空格只填1个单词。‎ In the course of researching my book, I asked people on five continents, “Who listens to you？” and the response was usually a long, awkward pause. Even those who were married and claimed vast networks of friends struggled to come up with someone who they felt truly listened to them.‎ It's fuelling what public health officials are calling a worldwide epidemic of loneliness, which increases the risk of dying young. Indeed, studies link loneliness with heart disease, stroke, dementia and poor immune function.‎ To fight loneliness people are told to “Get out there! ” Join a club, take up a sport, volunteer, or invite people to dinner. How do you connect with people once you're “out there” and “facetoface”？ Truly listening to someone is a skill many seem to have forgotten or perhaps never learned in the first place.‎ Listening goes beyond hearing what people say. It's also paying attention to how they say it and what they do while they are saying it, in what context, and how what they say resonates(共鸣) within you.‎ Listening is not about simply holding your peace while someone else holds forth. Quite the opposite. A lot of listening has to do with how you respond—the degree to which you elicit(引出) clear expression of another's thoughts and, in the process, express your own clearly. It starts with an openness and willingness to follow another person's story without presumption(预设) or getting sidetracked by what's going on in your own head.‎ Good listeners ask good questions. Everyone is interesting if you ask the right questions. If 14‎ ‎ someone seems dull or uninteresting, it's on you. Good questions don't have a hidden agenda of fixing, saving, advising, convincing or correcting. They don't begin with “Don't you think...？” or “Wouldn't you agree...？” and they definitely don't end with “Right？” The idea is to find out more about the speaker's point of view, not to influence it.‎ Also avoid asking appraising questions like “What do you do for a living？” and “What part of town do you live in？” and “Are you married？” These are not honest attempts to get to know people so much as rank them in the social hierarchy. It makes people strongly defensive and is likely to reduce the conversation to a CV recitation.‎ Instead, ask expansive questions such as, “What's the best gift you ever received？” and “If you could live anywhere in the world, where would you live？” Listening to people in this way is also essential to reaching compromise. You might not agree with them, but you gain understanding about their background and influences.‎ Listening is a skill and, like any skill, it degrades(退化) if you don't do it enough. The more people you listen to, the more aspects of humanity you will recognise and the better your judgements. To listen poorly, selectively, or not at all, will stop you from having a better understanding of the world.‎ Passage outline Supporting details Introduction ‎●People today find it hard to have a true (71)________．‎ ‎●It can increase loneliness, which probably causes an (72)________ death.‎ ‎●People are advised to be actively (73)________ in various social activities and truly listen to each other.‎ How to listen ‎●(74)________ on the speaker as well as what is being said.‎ ‎●Follow another person's story (75)________ without presumption and distraction.‎ ‎●Ask good questions meant to (76)________ the speaker's point of view.‎ ‎●Avoid asking appraising questions that will make people quite (77)________ to have an open and deep conversation.‎ ‎●Listen to people by asking expansive questions to (78)________ gaps and find common ground.‎ Summary ‎●Listening is a skill that needs constant (79)________．‎ ‎●Good listening will improve our judgements, while poor listening will (80)________ our understanding of the world.‎ 第五部分：书面表达(满分25分)‎ 请阅读下面文字，并按照要求用英语写一篇150词左右的文章。‎ Li Jiang: Have you heard this ?

I bought it in town. It was on special offer, so it was reduced by 2 pounds from ￡17 to ￡15. It was less on the Internet, which was ￡13, but it wouldn't arrive in time.‎ Text 2‎ M: Look at the snow outside.‎ W: Wow! We can go skiing this weekend. We didn't ski last winter at all, did we?‎ M: No, it was too wet. But it's going to be windy on the weekend, so we may not go skiing.‎ Text 3‎ M: Are you going away with your family this summer?‎ W: Yes, but we still haven't decided where yet. I've suggested going to the beach rather than 14‎ ‎ the mountains this year. My parents keep talking about going to the grasslands.‎ Text 4‎ W: How's your new apartment?‎ M: Fine. I'm satisfied with my new bedroom—the one I had before was tiny. The view's not so good now, but it's much warmer than the old place.‎ Text 5‎ M: Today's football match has been postponed.‎ W: What's happened?‎ M: The organizers had a look at the field and said it's just too soft because of all the rain recently.‎ W: And I heard some players had been sick, which could affect how well they'll play. ‎ Text 6 ‎ W: Did you get everything?‎ M: I think so. I got two pizzas like you asked—one with cheese and one with chicken.‎ W: I said we'd already got those. Anyway, it doesn't matter. Let me put these ones in the fridge now.‎ M: The salad was reduced today, so I got plenty of that, and you said we had enough ice cream, so that's everything.‎ W: I said I didn't think we had any left. Perhaps you got that mixed up with what I said about the pizzas.‎ Text 7 ‎ W: My parents say I can get a new phone for my birthday.‎ M: That's great. So which model are you going to choose? Reading what phone buyers have written about their phones is probably more reliable than listening to a sales assistant telling you which one is best. I've heard that some phone companies give stores money for selling more of their phones, especially the more expensive ones, so I'm not sure you could trust what they'd say.‎ W: That's useful to know. I'll also ask my parents what they think is the best way to choose.‎ M: OK. Look! The school bus is coming.‎ Text 8‎ W: Hi, I hear you're having horse riding lessons.‎ M: Yes. We'll be able to go riding together.‎ W: Great! When did you start?‎ M: I saw an advertisement about a month ago. So Mum phoned the place and we visited last week, but I only had my first lesson yesterday.‎ W: How was it?‎ M: All we did was brush the horses. It wasn't difficult but I wanted to ride. I hope the next lesson will be interesting.‎ W: I remember my first lesson. I got a riding hat as a birthday present, plus boots and trousers, so I had lots of things. But my friend's mum had to lend me her jacket because it was so cold that day.‎ M: What was your teacher like?‎ W: She won a lot of prizes for horse riding, but I don't think she really knew how to teach us and she wasn't always fun. But I kept going, and now I love riding!‎ Text 9‎ 14‎ W: Why did you decide to set up a book review website?‎ M: I'd seen an article about teenagers not reading enough and was wondering about possible methods for this. My best friend's into video games and writes reviews for various websites. These sites seem to encourage teenagers to play more games, so I thought it must be possible to do the same with reading. It's nice to see teenagers exchanging opinions about literature.‎ W: You have school, your website and a social life—what's a typical day like?‎ M: You'd think I'd never have a chance to relax, but it's rarely that busy. I don't have many opportunities to get bored, as everything I do throughout each day is so different. I make a plan each evening for the next day, which I usually stick to.‎ W: What do you want to do when you're 18?‎ M: Many website designers desire to join one of the huge technology businesses based in U．S. I want to stay close to my family in Canada, though. I've thought about studying computer science, but I learn better by doing than by studying, so I'd prefer to have my own web design company at the age of 18.‎ Text 10‎ W: Right, everyone. I'm going to tell you about our trip to the City Museum.‎ The museum isn't far — it'll only take us about 20 minutes to get there. There'll be several events during the day and you'll have the chance to walk around the museum for at least 50 minutes. At first we'll listen to the museum director Jane Witton for about 30 minutes, telling us about what there is to see.‎ Usually in a museum you're not allowed to touch what's on show, but on this visit, we are! You'll all work in groups, and each group will be given pots to pick up and look at, and think about what they were used for. You'll study some ancient rings too, although I'm afraid they'll stay in their glass case.‎ The museum also has a Technology Center for education and research. You'll be able to find out lots of interesting facts. Rather than using computers, though, iPads will be provided. You can work on these to search for information. When you've finished your research, for the final activity you'll do a quiz to see how much you can remember.‎ When we get back to school, I'd like you to design and make something for other students to see. The museum has sent us some of their postcards, which you can use to give you ideas for the posters I want you to draw.‎ 14‎
