He was a young and confident conductor, but when he saw the audience sitting in the hall, his confidence shook, although he used to think it was as solid as concrete. Actually he was so nervous that he felt it difficult to concentrate. Frank didn t want others to know that he was worried and a little frightened. He asked for a big glass of water with some condensed (浓缩 ) juice in it. As far as his skills were concerned, Frank was a very good musician. His teacher s conclusion was that he had an excellent understanding of both abstract and concrete concepts and could make a top musician. The only concern was that Frank got nervous easily and this affected his concentration. Frank didn t concede（退让） , and refused to admit it himself. Luckily, the minute Frank stepped on stage he forgot everything concerning himself and was completely absorbed in the music. However, half an hour after the concert had started, Frank suddenly stopped. He took the chief violinist aside and whispered to him in confidence, and then left the stage. Everyone was surprised by his strange conduct, and some noise arose in the audience. But as the violinist took Frank s position, the audience concluded that the concert would go on even without Frank, and quickly calmed down. Frank returned after the interval and the concert continued smoothly. After the concert, the violinist asked Frank why he had left, but Frank refused to tell him. The violinist then said that he d condemn this behavior at the conference unless Frank gave him a reason, but it still didn t concern Frank. At last, the violinist said, “ I always take you into my confidence, why can t you tell me? ” Frank finally made concessions and admitted that because he had drunk too much water with some condensed juice in it, he had to go to the toilet. 21. The underlined word “ it” in the first paragraph refers to . A. the hall B. the concert C. his confidence D. his audience 22. Why did Frank ask for a big glass of water? A. To remember the music. B. To hide his nervousness. C. To gain confidence. D. To satisfy his thirst. 23. Why did Frank leave the stage midway? A. He fell ill suddenly. B. He wanted to drink water. C. He was too nervous to continue. D. He had to go to the bathroom. 24. What can we infer from the last paragraph? A. Frank will be accused at the conference. B. Frank felt embarrassed to tell the truth. C. Frank didn t take the concert seriously. D. Frank didn t get along with the violinist.教育资源教育资源B Dear Marsha, I am writing to request permission to attend the three-day “ Internet Marketing Confer ence ” in San Francisco, September 13-15.

This enables the electrical grid system to be responsive, reliable and controllable, thereby improving the overall distribution system. To understand SmartGrid, one must go through the evolution of the traditional grid system which is over 100 years old. By the end of 20th century, the consumers have started using air conditioning and domestic heating systems that led to daily cycles of peak load. By then power generators were turned on to handle the peak load, but the lack of power supply still existed. Also, ability to do differential charging for peak time consumers was not available. By 2019, with the development of digital and communication technologies, availability of smart metering ( 智能计电 ), ability to generate power through renewable sources like solar and wind, things have been shaping up towards better managed grid system. Smart metering allows us to see the consumption (消费 ) patterns over a period of time and also changing demands in realtime. A Smart Meter is modern equipment that records detailed energy consumption. It relays the information back to customers accurately showing a half-hourly profile of their energy use. This information can be sent to web services and emails so that customers are informed of their energy consumption promptly. Armed with this information customers can manage their usage more effectively. It enables charging users based on time of use, thereby giving control of the power bills to the users. It also increases reliability by improving fault detection ( 故障探测 ) speeds. With all the good things that a SmartGrid offer, security of the systems is generally voiced as a major worry. As the monitoring and control is over a communication network, hackers (黑客) can potentially get in and cause damage. 28. SmartGrid is a next generation grid for _. A. electrical network B. radio network C. telephone network D. communication network 29. According to the passage, peak demand is due to . A. using internet devices B. air conditioning and heating devices C. too much lighting D. too low charge for using electricity 30. Smart metering technology can help customers to .A. save money B. provide more electricity C. turn off the electricity D. monitor the network 31. What is the biggest concern with the SmartGrid technology? A. Reliability. B. Metering. C. Control. D. Security.教育资源教育资源D The “ swim-with-dolphi ns” tourist industry is becoming more popular every year with the increase of people s income. After all, it can cost a large amount of money to have this kind of holiday experience. So tour operators try to place eager swimmers as near as possible to the dolphins by trying to predict where the dolphins will be. Research has shown that while dolphins can move away if they do not want to interact (交流）with human swimmers, they do not like it at all if the swimmers slip into the water directly on top of them or if humans are in their path of travel. However, if swimmers enter the water to one side of them, the dolphins do not avoid the swimmers to the same extent. In all cases, the dolphins seem to have become more sensitive to the presence of the swimmers. For dolphins, swimming amongst or with humans is not necessarily a high priority. This research has shown that only 19% of any group of dolphins will participate in interaction. Young dolphins are the most likely to interact; they do seem curious about being with humans. It is believed that they see humans as “ en tertainment” and that the interaction is a new and unusual experience for them. It is frequently asked whether “ swim-with-dolphi ns” tourism should be discontinued. The advice is that dolphins should be given enough periods of time throughout the day when they are not exposed to tourism. Permitted interactions should not be too disturbing to the dolphins since there could be mothers and calves (幼崽）present in dolphin groups. There should also be educational campaigns about the creatures and what is likely to cause danger to them. It is not easy to explain to someone that they cannot fulfill their lifelong dreams because the dolphins are resting, or that a mother dolphin and calf are in the area. But if we are to enjoy these remarkable animals and not just use them for our entertainment, then we must carefully monitor the “swim-with-dolphi ns” industry worldwide. 32. What makes “ swim-with-dolphi ns” tourism popular? A. The local government s encouragement. B. The improvement of people s living standard. C. The increasing number of tourists. D. The high profits of the industry. 33. Why are young dolphins more likely to swim with humans? A. They do this out of curiosity. B. They like humans better. C. They are less sensitive. D. They prefer new things by nature. 34. What does the author suggest the “swim-with-dolphi ns” industry do in Paragraph 4? A. Make people know the hidden threat to dolphins. B. Strictly limit the expansion of the industry. C. Avoid interaction with young dolphins.教育资源教育资源D. Expose dolphins to tourists only in the daytime. 35. What is the author s attitude toward “swim-with-dolphins ” ? A. Negative. B. Cautious. C. Supportive. D. Optimistic. 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。（如果所用的答题卡没有E、F、G 选项，则选E 涂 A、B，选 F 涂 A、C，选 G涂 A、D。 ）It may not come as a surprise but the world as a whole is getting richer. 36 Some people have more extra income to spend on luxuries such as holidays, cars, TVs and smartphones. The number of people living in extreme poverty has halved in recent decades. The gap between rich and poor in some countries is narrowing. However, there is still a lot of inequality in different countries. Some people have a lot of money and opportunities and others don t. A lot of the money in the world is in the hands of very few people. 37 But some countries are attempting to reduce this inequality and make the poor less poor. 38 One of them is to invest in a higher minimum wage (最低工资 ). Having a higher minimum wage can help people eat better and seek a better education. And more people with more money buy more things and factories can produce more. In turn, more jobs are created. 39 Bill Gates, the founder of Microsoft, earned a lot of money from his company but when he retired, he and his wife Melinda, created a foundation to help the poor. He thinks that rich people should, of course, pay their taxes but he also advises that they should all “ look at taking their wealth and being philanthropic (乐善好施的 ), both in their own country and to help the global poorest . ” 40 But if other super-rich people don t want to experience this fulfillment then, very soon the wealthiest 1% will soon own more money than the rest of the world s population. A. But why do we still find poverty? B. We are l
