Hao Jingfang, a Tsinghua University alumna, is pursuing her passion for writing and education.In 2016, she won the prestigious Hugo Award with her novella, Folding Beijing, which made her the first female writer in China to bring home this prize.

Its not a new pandemic(传染病) its influenza.The 2019-2020 flu season, which began September 29, is projected to be one of the worst in a decade, according to the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases. At least 250,000 people have been hospitalized with symptoms from the flu, and that number is predicted to climb as flu activity spreads quickly.Dr. Nathan Chomilo, an assistant professor at University of Minnesota Medical School, said that the commonness of the flu often underplays its severity, but people should take it seriously.The flu becomes dangerous when secondary infections emerge, the result of an already weakened immune system. Bacterial and viral infections worsen the flus symptoms. People with chronic illnesses are also at a heightened risk for flu complications.Those complications include pneumonia(肺炎), inflammation in the heart and brain and organ failure which, in some cases, can be deadly.Influenza is tricky because the virus changes every year. Sometimes, the dominant strain in a flu season will be more virulent than in previous years, which can impact the number of people infected and the severity of their symptoms.Most of these changes in the virus are small and insignificant, a process called antigenic drift. That years flu vaccine is mostly effective in protecting patients in spite of these small changes.Occasionally, the flu undergoes a rare antigenic shift, which results when a completely new strain of virus emerges that human bodies havent experienced before.This flu season, theres no sign of antigenic shift, the most extreme change. But its happened before, most recently in 2009 with the H1N1 virus. It became a pandemic because people had no immunity against it, the CDC reported.8. What do the numbers indicate in the first two paragraphs?A. The flu is rather serious.B. The flu is quite common.C. The flu is easy to control.D. The flu season lasts long.9. When does the flu become dangerous?A. There appear new symptoms of flu owing to antigenic shift.B. The number of patients becomes large with the virus spreading.C. Relative infections turn up because of the weaker immune system.D. The virus changes its form with no immunity against it.10. The underlined word “virulent” in paragraph 6 means _.A. changeableB. deadlyC. peacefulD. different11. Why is the H1N1 virus in 2009 referred to in the last paragraph?A. To warn people that the antigenic shift is impossible.B. To inform people that the virus can be cured.C. To show people that the vaccine is effective.D. To remind people that the virus can be changed.DWhen talking about the economics of online publishing, the first thing to remember is that job No. 1 isnt to get the news to you. Rather, it is to monetize you, by selling you off, in real time, to the highest bidder. This happens every time you click on a link, before the page has even started to load on your phone. Once upon a time, if you and I both visited the same web page at the same time using the same web browser, we would end up seeing the same thing. Today, however, an almost unthinkably enormous ecosystem of scripts and cookies and often astonishingly personal information is used to show you a set of brand messages and sales links which are tailored almost uniquely to you.That ecosystem raises important questions about privacy the way that the minute you look at a pair of shoes online, for instance, they then start following you around every other website you visit for weeks. But whether or not you value your privacy, you are damaged, daily, by the sheer weight of all that technology.Online ads have never got less annoying over time, and you can be sure that mobile ads are going to get more annoying as well, once Silicon Valley has worked out how to better identify who you are. The move to greater privacy protections might help slow the pace with which such technologies are adopted. But theres no realistic hope that websites will actually improve from here. If you want to avoid the dreadful experience of the mobile web, youll only have one choice which is to start reading your articles natively, in the Facebook or Apple News app. But it wont be Facebook and Apple who killed the news brands. Itll be ad tech.12. What will happen if two people click on the same link today?A. They will immediately get the news that they want.B. They will see the same thing whenever they browse.C. They will see different brand messages and sales links.D. They will be recommended to the same bidder.13. Why can the online ads send you the links unique to you?A. Because the ecosystem knows who you are.B. Because they know how to identify who you are.C. Because you dont care about your privacy.D. Because you always use the same web browser.14. How could we protect our privacy against mobile ads?A. By slowing the pace with such technologies.B. By improving the website functions.C. By stopping using the mobile phones.D. By reading articles in specific apps.15. Whats the authors attitude to the ad tech?A. Negative.B. Positive.C. Unconcerned.D. Optimistic.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。We all experience momentary bursts of anger every now and then. For the most part, though, these relatively minor annoyances are easy to deal with, but walking back your anger when youre having a heated conversation with someone is a lot more difficult. There are things you can do in the moment to calm yourself, though.1. Acknowledge that youre angry.When youre angry,you notice it in your body. 16 If youre not physically feeling it, you might hear it in the sound of your voice.Once you notice this, try to adjust your voice. Just as increasing anger can correspond to an increasingly loud voice, so can the opposite. 17 2. Give yourself a time-out.How do you do the exercise above when youre in the middle of a face-to-face conversation? Call a personal timeout. Walking away gives you time to calm down and collect your thoughts before responding. This also aids in decreasing anger.Of course, dont just peace out of the argument. Let whoever youre talking to know that you just need a little physical space.3. Ask yourself what emotion is behind the anger. 18 More often than not, anger is a “secondary emotion” we use as a mask or a defense for an entirely different feeling(shame, for instance, or embarrassment).Once youre aware of the real emotions at play, you can communicate it to the person you snapped at. Also, youd apologize to your co-worker and perhaps consider asking your manager to lighten your workload.4. 19 Lets say youve taken the advice above, but youre still feeling heated. If so, changing the topic of conversation can also be a good way to cope with anger in the moment. 20 If you were discussing something serious or something that needs to be explained finally table the discussion for later or the next day, when you calm down.A. Change the subject of the conversation.B. Stop the conversation with your partner.C. Anger will do damage to your lungs and heart.D. Try responding to your loud voice by gradually lowering it.E. Now that youve calmed down, think about whats motivating your anger.F. Make a joke and reroute the conversation to a safe, calm, enjoyable dialogue.G. Anger will often cause changes in our body such as muscle tension or sore neck.第三部分 英语知识运用（共两节，满分30分）第一节 完形填空（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。Years ago a farmer owned land along the Atlantic seacoast.
