Now, join us in visiting some of the best hygge places.‎ ‎1. Manhausen (Manshausen, Norway)‎ Adventure-seeking people needn’t look further than Manhausen, a 55-acre island escape in Norway’s Grotoya strait. Not to be missed: the saltwater hot tub overlooking the sea and family-style fireside meals enjoyed at the main house. The baby sitting service also available.‎ Get more information here.‎ ‎2. Cedar Lakes Estate (Port Jervis, New York)‎ Occupying 500 bucolic acres, this turn-of-the-century summer camp now houses a host of luxury, lodge-style cabins. Bike the grounds, paddle the lakes, swim in the outdoor heated pool or head to a nearby mountain for a day of skiing. Then lie down with a great book beneath a fur blanket, turn on your fireplace and get your snuggle on.‎ Get more information here.‎ ‎3. Soho Farmhouse (Oxfordshire, England)‎ This Oxfordshire countryside members-only club offers up a British version of hygge. Among the splendid property’s coziest offerings: the community farmyard and the Studio Cabin guest room, which boasts views of the lake.‎ Get more information here.‎ ‎4. Salt House Inn (Provincetown, Massachusetts)‎ This charming coastal town now boasts a 19th-century-shingled cottage turned hotel. Book your visit during the quiet, windswept off-season (January through March) for some salty fresh air on the beach.‎ Get more information here.‎ ‎21. If you are taking a baby, which one may suit you best?‎ A. Manhausen. B. Cedar Lakes Estate.‎ C. Soho Farmhouse. D. Salt House Inn.‎ ‎22. What is special about Soho Farmhouse?‎ A. Water scenery. B. Limited access. C. Outdoor activities. D. Family-style meals.‎ ‎23. Where is this text most probably taken from?‎ A. A magazine. B. A brochure. C. A textbook. D. A website.‎ B The other day I was shopping at the local Chinese grocery store. There was a line at the fish counter, but only one staff person was there to take care of the customers. Some customers ordered quite an amount of fish for that staff person to work on. At last I was the second in line; all I wanted was a couple of crabs and should get out of there in no time.‎ Noticing it was very busy at the fish counter, another staff person came over to help. I was ready to be served, but the staff person went to the end of the line and began to help a couple of ladies with snails(蜗牛). The customer in front of me, being served, turned around and looked at me sympathetically, and the customer behind me called to the staff person, “You should start her,” pointing at me. He was, well, ignored.‎ If someone asked me, “What is the most important rule to follow in America?” I would reply without hesitation, “Wait your turn at all times.” Wherever you go here in this country, you will find people waiting in a line quietly to get anything: whether in the supermarkets, department stores, bus stops, or gas stations, it’s just a matter of waiting your turn. In a larger sense, “wait your turn” is more than just a guideline—it is a very basic norm(准则) that reflects the fundamental value of the western cultures. But in some situations your turn does not always come based on when you get there and how long you have waited in line, just like my case at the store. Even though this did not often happen, it did make me feel upset.‎ ‎24. What happened to the author at the store?‎ A. He wasn’t served upon his order. B. He was ill-treated by a customer.‎ C. He was asked to be served later. D. He was asked to do others a favor.‎ ‎25. What is the author’s opinion about Queuing Rule?‎ A. Wait until being served. B. Serve people as one likes.‎ C. Wait until your turn comes. D. First come, later served.‎ ‎26. What does the underlined word “this” in the last paragraph refer to?‎ A. His belief. B. His experience. C. His culture. D. His rule.‎ ‎27. Why did the author write the text?‎ A. To emphasize his kindness to others.‎ B. To introduce some western cultures to us.‎ C. To show his disbelief in Queuing Rule.‎ D. To express his belief and his feeling.‎ C A robot created by Washington State University(WSU) scientists could help elderly people with dementia(痴呆) and other limitations live independently in their own homes.‎ The Robot Activity Support System or RAS, uses sensors installed in a WSU smart home to determine where its residents are, what they are doing and when they need assistance with daily activities. It navigates(定位) through rooms and around obstacles to find people on its own, provides video instructions on how to do simple tasks and can even lead its owner to objects like their medication or a snack in the kitchen.‎ ‎“RAS combines the convenience of a mobile robot with the activity detection technology of a WSU smart home to provide assistance in the moment, as the need for help is detected,” said Bryan Minor, a postdoctoral researcher in the WSU School of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science.‎ Currently, an estimated 50 percent of adults over the age of 85 need assistance with every day activities such as preparing meals and taking medication and the annual cost for this assistance in the US is nearly $2 trillion. With the number of adults over 85 expected to triple by 2050, researchers hope that technologies like RAS and the WSU smart home will relieve some of the financial strain on the healthcare system by making it easier for older adults to live alone.‎ RAS is the first robot researchers have tried to incorporate into their smart home environment. They recently published a study in the journal Cognitive Systems Research that demonstrates how RAS could make life easier for older adults struggling to live independently.‎ ‎“While we are still in an early stage of development, our initial results with RAS have been promising,” Minor said. “The next step in the research will be to test RAS’ performance with a group of older adults to get a better idea of what prompts, video reminders and other preferences they have regarding the robot.”‎ ‎28. How does RAS serve elderly people?‎ A. Through sensors B. Through objects.‎ C. Through a mobile robot. D. Through their daily activities.‎ ‎29. What can we know about RAS?‎ A. It is the first robot used in daily life. B. Its function remains to be tested.‎ C. It can locate people and do any task. D. It can cook for owners on its own.‎ ‎30. What’s Minor’s attitude toward the future of RAS?‎ A. Doubtful. B. Negative. C. Optimistic. D. Uncertain.‎ ‎31. What can be a suitable title for the text?‎ A. Elderly people leave the nursing home.‎ B. Smart Home Tests first elder-Care robot.‎ C. RAS, the first robot to make home smart.‎ D. Older adults have benefited from RAS.‎ D Demand for the Chinese tech company’s devices(设备) is red hot even though the country’s overall market for smartphones is getting smaller. Huawei’s China sales rocketed more than 20% in the final quarter of 2018, and experts say that’s partly due to the US government’s global campaign against the company.‎ ‎“The latest tension between the US and China raised the patriotism(爱国主义) in Chinese consumers, said Jusy Hong, an analyst at research firm IHS Markit.‎ He pointed out that some Chinese companies encouraged employees to buy Huawei phones late last year. The moves were a gesture of support after the firm’s chief financial officer was arrested in Canada in early December at the request of the United States.‎ Huawei’s booming sales show how major parts of its business continue to increase even as the United States tries to persuade other countries to shut Huawei products out of 5G wireless networks and pursues(追究) criminal charges against it. The company expects to overtake Samsung as the world’s biggest smartphone maker by next year.‎ Huawei sold 30 million phones in China in the last three months of 2018, nearly three times as many as Apple(AAPL), according to data published this week by research firms Canalys and IDC. Apple’s sales plunged almost 20%.‎ Huawei’s success in China, the world’s largest smartphone market, is more than about geopolitics(地缘政治). Chinese consumers love its flagship, high-end phones because they have great cameras, cutting edge technology and cost less than the latest iPhones, according to analysts. And by offering a selection of ‎ cheaper phones, Huawei is able to target a bigger market.‎ It also benefited from the troubles this year at ZTE(ZTCOF), a rival Chinese smartphone and telecommunications equipment maker. ZTE was banned by the US government from buying vital American parts for months last year.‎ ‎32. Why did Huawei’s China sales increase greatly according to the article?‎ A. Because the company’s devices are always popular worldwide.‎ B. Because Chinese consumers’ patriotism was aroused.‎ C. Because the government encourages people to buy Huawei devices.‎ D. Because the country’s overall market for smartphones is getting bigger.‎ ‎33. What can we conclude from the third paragraph?‎ A. Huawei’s chief financial officer was arrested in Canada due to the US’s request.‎ B. All Chinese companies showed their support to Huawei with their purchase.‎ C. Jusy Hong thought the United States arrested Huawei’s chief financial officer.‎ D. Jusy Hong thought the arrest of Huawei’s chief financial officer is unfair.‎ ‎34. How do you understand the underlined word in the fifth paragraph?‎ A. increased greatly by. B. reduced greatly to.‎ C. dropped greatly by. D. remained steady.‎ ‎35. Why is Huawei’s success in China more than about geopolitics?‎ A. Because Huawei has the largest smartphone market in the world.‎ B. Because Huawei’s success is only limited within China mainland.‎ C. Because Huawei has the ability to target a bigger market in the world.‎ D. Because Chinese consumers are quite satisfied with Huawei smartphones.‎ 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。‎ How to Cultivate Confidence?‎ When faced with a big challenge where potential failure seems to appear at every corner maybe you’ll hear this advice: “Be more confident.” 36 Take the belief that you are valuable, worthwhile, and capable, also known as self-esteem. Confidence turns thoughts into action. It comes from the genes you are born with, the way people get used to treating you as well as the choices you make. While it isn’t possible to completely separate these three factors, the personal choices we make obviously play a major role in confidence development. As a result, by keeping in mind certain practical tips, we do actually have the power to cultivate our own confidence.‎ ‎ 37 If you’re looking for a long-term change, consider the way you think about your abilities and talents. Do you think they are fixed at birth, or that they can be developed? These beliefs matter because they can influence how you act in the face of setbacks. If you have a fixed mindset, meaning that your talents are locked in pace, you might give up, assuming you’ve discovered something you’re not good at. But if you have a growth mindset, and think your abilities can improve, a challenge will become an opportunity to learn and grow. Neuroscience(神经学）supports the latter. The connections in your brain do get stronger and grow with study and practice. 38 ‎ Practicing failure is a must. Failure happens. 39 J.K. Rowling was rejected by twelve different publishers before one picked up Harry Potter. The Wright Brothers built on history’s failed attempts at flight before designing a successful airplane. Studies show that those who fail regularly and keep trying anyway are better equipped to respond to challenges in a constructive way. 40 So, think of a challenge you want to take on, realize it’s not going to be easy, accept that you’ll make mistakes, and be kind to yourself when you do. You’ll feel the excitement, knowing that whatever the result, you’ll have gained greater knowledge and understanding.‎ A. But what is confidence?‎ B. So can confidence be easily cultivated?‎ C. Everyone is possible to encounter failure.‎ D. Being a talented person is quite necessary.‎ E. They learn to try different strategies and persevere F. Believing in your abilities to improve is the first step.‎ G. It also turns out that people with a growth mindset are better at dealing with challenges.‎ 第三部分 英语知识运用（共两节，满分45分）‎ 第一节 完形填空（共20小题；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四个选项（A、B、C和D）中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。‎ I was six years old.
