(A)
Bags of Love
Last year, I was assigned to work at an office near my mother’s house, so I stayed with her
for a month. During that time, I helped out with the housework and contributed to the groceries.
After less than a week, I started noticing that the groceries were running out pretty quickly
— we were always suddenly out of something. (25)_______(wonder) how my mum could consume them
so quickly, I began observing her daily routine for two weeks. To my surprise, I found that she

react or that I would stop (29)_____(buy) the groceries if I found out?
When she got home, I told her about my discovery. (30)_____ she could react, I gave her a big
hug and told her she didn’t need to keep it a secret (31)______ me. She told me that some of
the children lived with an older lady in a shelter while others slept on the streets. For years,

Golden Rules of Good Design
What makes good design? Over the years, designers and artists have been trying to
41
the essentials of good design. They have found that some sayings can help people understand the
ideas of good design. There are four as follows.
Less is more. This saying is associated with the German-born architect Mies van der Rohe. In
his Modernist view, beauty lies in simplicity and elegance, and the aim of the designer is to
create solutions to problems through the most efficient means. Design should avoid unnecessary
42
More is not a bore. The American-born architect Robert Venturi concluded that if simplicity
is done badly, the result is
with
decoration and color again. Product design was heavily influenced by this view and can be seen
in kitchen
design. Post-Modernist designers began to
such as ovens and kettles.
44
43
45
Fitness for purpose. Successful product design takes into consideration a product’s function,
purpose, shape, form, color, and so on. The most important result for the user is that the product
does what is
desk lamp. It needs to be constructed
from materials that will stand the heat of the lamp and regular adjustments by the user. It also
needs to be stable. Most importantly, it needs to
. For example, think of a(n)
light where it is needed.
47
48
46
From follows emotion. This phrase is associated with the German designer Hartmut Esslinger.
He believes design must take into
the sensory side of our nature—sight, smell, touch
and taste. These are as important as rational(理性的). When choosing everyday products such as
49
toothpaste, we appreciate a cool-looking device that allows us to easily
onto our brush.

the toothpaste
III. Reading Comprehension
Section A
Directions: For each blank in the following passage there are four words or phrases marked
A, B, C and D. Fill in each blank with the word or phrase that best fits the context.
In the 1960s, Douglas McGregor, one of the key thinkers in the art of management, developed
the mow famous Theory X and Theory Y. Theory X is the idea that people instinctively
work
and will do anything to avoid it. Theory Y is the view that everyone has the potential to find
satisfaction in work.
51
In any case, despite so much evidence to the
53
They believe,
effectively, or that decisions must be imposed from
makes for authoritarian (专制的) managers.
, many managers still agree to Theory X.
, that their employees need constant supervision if they are to work
without consultation. This, of course,
52
54
55
Different cultures have different ways of
people. Unlike authoritarian management,
some cultures, particularly in Asia, are well known for the consultative nature of decision-making
—all members of the department or work group are asked to
to this process. This is
management by the collective opinion. Many western companies have tried to imitate such Asian
ways of doing things, which are based on general
. Some experts say that women will become
more effective managers than men because they have the power to reach common goals in a way that
traditional
managers cannot.
56
57
58
59
60
A recent trend has been to encourage employees to use their own initiative, to make decisions
managers first. This empowerment (授权) has been part of the trend
on their own without
the number of management layers in companies. After de-layering in
towards downsizing:
with just a top level of senior managers, front-line managers
this way, a company may be
and employees with direct contact with the public. Empowerment takes the idea of delegation (委
62
托) much further than has
been the case. Empowerment and delegation mean new forms of
management control to
63
that the overall business plan is being followed, and that operations
become more profitable under the new organization, rather than less.
61
Another trend is off-site or
64
management, where teams of people linked by e-mail and
65
C. lose
the Internet work on projects from their own houses. Project managers evaluate the
of the team members in terms of what they produce for projects, rather than the amount of time
they spend on them.

Section B
Direction：Read the following three passages. Each passage is followed by several questions or
unfinished sattments. For each of them there are four choices markedA, B, C and D. Choose the
one that fits best according to the information given in the passage you have just read.
(A)
One early morning, I went into the living room to find my mother reading a thick book called
BestLovedPoemstoReadAgainandAgain. My interest was aroused only by the fact that the word
“Poems” appeared in big, hot pink letters.
“Is it good?” I asked her.
“Yeah,” she answered. “There’s one I really like and you’ll like it, too.” I leaned forward.
“‘Patty Poem,’” she read the title. Who is Patty? I wondered. The poem began:
She never puts her toys away,
Just leaves them scattered① where they lay,…
①散乱的
The poem was just three short sections. The final one came quickly:
When she grows and gathers poise②,
I’ll miss her harum-scarum③ noise,
And look in vain④ for scattered toys.
②稳重
③莽撞的
④徒劳地
And I’ll be sad.
A terrible sorrow washed over me. Whoever Patty was, she was a mean girl. Then, the shock.
“It’s you, honey,” My mother said sadly.
To my mother, the poem revealed a parent’s affection when her child grows up and leaves. To
me, the “she” in the poem was horror. It was my mama who would be sad. It was so terrible I
burst out crying.
“What’s wrong?” my mother asked.
“Oh Mama,” I cried. “I don’t want to grow up ever!”
She smiled. “Honey, it’s okay. You’re not growing up anytime soon. And when you do, I’ll
still love you, okay?”
“Okay,” I was still weeping. My panic has gone. But I could not help thinking about that silly
poem. After what seemed like a safe amount of time, I read the poem again and was confused. It
all fit so well together, like a puzzle. The language was simple, so simple I could plainly
understand its meaning, yet it was still beautiful. I was now fascinated by the idea of poetry,
words that had the power to make or break a person’s world.
I have since fallen in love with other poems, but “Patty Poem” remains my poem. After all,
“Patty Poem” gave me my love for poetry not because it was the poem that lifted my spirits,
but because it was the one that hurt me the most.
66. Why was the writer attracted by the book Best Loved Poems to Read Again and Again?
A. It was a thick enough book.
B. Something on its cover caught her eye.
C. Her mother was reading it with interest.
D. It has a meaningful title.
67. After her mother read the poem to her, the writer felt ______ at first.
A. sad
B. excited
C. horrified
D. confused
68. The writer’s mother liked to read “Patty Poem” probably because______.
A. it reflected her own childhood
B. it was written in simple language
C. it was composed by a famous poet
D. it gave her a hint of what would happen
69. It can be concluded from the passage that“Patty Poem”leads the writer to _______.
A. discover the power of poetry
B. recognize her love for puzzles
C. find her eagerness to grow up
D. experience great homesickness
（B）
Is there link between humans and climate change or not? This question was first studied in
the early 1900s. Since then, many scientists have thought that our actions do
make a difference. In 1997, the Kyoto Protocol explained our role in the Earth’s
changing atmosphere and set international limits for gas emissions(排放) from
2008 to 2012. Some countries have decided to continue these reductions until 2020.
More recently, the Paris Agreement, stuck by nearly 200 countries, also aims to
limit global warming. But just now how much warmer it will get depends on how
deeply countries cut carbon emissions.
3.5℃
This is how much temperatures would rise by 2100 even if nations live up to the
initial Paris promises to reduce carbon emissions; this rise could still put
coastal cities under water and drive over half of all species to extinction.
2℃
To meet this minimum goal, the Agreement requires countries to tighten emissions
targets every five years. Even this increase could sink some islands, worse
drought(干旱) and drive a decline of up to a third in the number of species.
1.5℃
This is the most ambitious goal for temperature rise set by the Paris Agreement,
after a push by low-lying island nations like Kiribati, which say limiting
temperature rise to 1.5℃ could save them from sinking.
0.8℃
This is how much temperatures have risen since the industrial age began, putting us 40% of the
way to the 2℃ point.
0℃
The baseline here is average global temperature before the start of the industrial age.
70. It can be concluded from paragraph 1 that _______.
A. the problem of global warming will have been quite solved by 2020
B. gas emissions have been effectively reduced in developed countries
C. the Paris Agreements is more influential than the Kyoto Protocol
D. humans have made continuous efforts to slow down global warming
71. If nations could only keep the initial promises of the Paris Agreement, what would happen
by the year 2100?
A. The human population would increase by one third.
B. Little over 50% of all species would still exist.
C. Nations would not need to tighten their emissions targets.
D. The Agreement’s minimum goal would not be reached.
72. If those island nations not far above sea level are to survive, the maximum temperature rise,
since the start of the industrial age, should be_______.
A. 0.8℃
C. 2℃
B. 1.5℃
D. 3.5℃
(C)
Enough “meaningless drivel”. That’s the message from a group of members of the UK government
who have been examining how social media firms like LinkedIn gather and use social media data.
The House of Commons Science and Technology Committee’s report, released last week, has blamed
firms for making people sign up to long incomprehensible legal contracts and calls for an
international standard or kitemark ( 认 证 标 记 ) to identify sites that have clear terms and
conditions.
“The term and conditions statement that we all carelessly agree to is meaningless drivel to
anyone,” says Andrew Miller, the chair of the committee. Instead, he says, firms should provide
a plain-English version of their terms. The simplified version would be checked by a third party
and awarded a kitemark if it is an accurate reflection of the original.
It is not yet clear who would administer the scheme, but the UK government is looking at
introducing it on a voluntary basis. “we need to think through how we make that work in practice,”
says Miller.
Would we pay any more attention to a kitemark? “I think if you went and did the survey, people
would like to think they would,” says Nigel Shadbolt at the University of Southampton, UK, who
studies open data. “We do know people worry a lot about the inappropriate use of their
