三、阅读理解（30）
A
The very fast changes and developments in technology are regular news items．Our children are growing up in a world that is more grounded in technology than ever before．
Children nowadays don’t recognize the technology their parents grew up with．There are videos and articles that show children trying to use outdated technology．It is funny to watch them try to work out what to do with a telephone that doesn’t have a touch screen．Also watch the video about children trying to work out what to do with a cassette tape and a Walkman．The concepts and machines once familiar to parents are now very alien to their kids．
Who can remember when black and white television became colour television?
One parent posted on social media that she was watching a re-run of a show popular in the 1950s with her young son．He asked her what was wrong with the television because the show had been filmed in black and white．He had never seen anything on television in black and white．
Television channels now broadcast 24 hours a day．In the past, television had a start and finish time．After the last program, the test pattern appeared on the screen．It showed that the transmitter was working but that no program was being broadcast．These patterns were also used when there was a problem with the broadcasting．Can you imagine what children would do now if they saw this kind of symbol on the screen in front of them?
To show children the technology that their parents once used, but which children don’t understand is the focus of the travelling exhibit the National History Museum has put together．It features items that are now just a memory for the older generation．Go and see the exhibition now!

On Feb 25 in the Great Hall of the people in Beijing, President Xi Jinping announced China’s “complete victory” in eliminating extreme poverty(消除贫困)．China had set a goal of ending poverty by the end of 2020．As the goal was reached, a grand gathering was held in Beijing to mark the nation’s poverty alleviation accomplishments(扶贫成就) and honor model poverty fighters．
China set its poverty line at an annual income of 2,300 yuan in 2010 for each person．By 2020, a person making less than 4,000 yuan a year could be described as living in poverty, according to Xinhua．Over the past eight years, the last 98．99 million people have shaken off poverty, which was one of the goals of the 13th Five-Year Plan(2016-2020)．All 832 poor counties(县) and 128,000 villages have also been removed from the poverty list．
The United Nations has set the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development (《2030 年可持续发展议程》)．China has met its poverty alleviation goal 10 years ahead of schedule．And according to the World Bank, China has helped end 70 percent of poverty worldwide since the late 1970s．
Ordinary people made this achievement possible．Zhang Guimei, 64, created the first free senior high school for girls in China．As the principal(校长) of the Huaping Senior High School for Girls in Lijiang, Yunnan, she helped more than 1,800 students go to college during the past 40 years．The head of a mountain village fought poverty by improving local transportation．Mao Xianglin, 62, is the head of Xiazhuang village．This increased the per capita income(人均收入) to more than 40 times what it was in the 1990s．
These model poverty fighters have worked in many different ways and contributed(做贡献) to China’s success in ending poverty．According to Jeffrey Sachs, a professor at Columbia University, US, China’s success “should inspire the world．”
“(It should) draw on China’s experience, including massive investments(大规模投资)in education, public health and advanced infrastructure(先进的基础设施),” Sachs told China Daily．
30．What’s the best title of this passage?

B．China’s success

A．encouraging people to fight poverty．
B．reaching a goal of ending poverty by the end of 2020
C．helping end 70 percent of poverty worldwide since the late 1970s
D．meeting China’s poverty alleviation goal 10 years ahead of schedule．
33．What can we infer (推断) from the article？
A．Every country should draw on China’s experience．

D．Improving local transportation helps in mountain villages fight poverty．
C
I am not interested in making the New Year’s decisions．But this year, there came a decisive moment．It came when my adult children, who’d been home for two weeks, headed back to their homes．There was a sadness I felt as I waved their cars out of sight, not knowing when I’d see them again．But at that moment I realized that something in me needed to change．So I asked myself, “What is truly good in your life?”
What is good is my relationships with my children, but not only those relationships．What also keeps my heart beating is creating a home, no matter who is there, and cooking balanced, plant-based meals, even if just for me．I find joy in nature and connections with close friends and family．I love doing photography and writing and teaching myself piano．
Whatever was missing from my life, at the end of last year I knew about the parts that worked．As winter ended and the visiting children prepared to leave, I looked to the future．
I think of my friend, Lisa, who in May lost her husband of 30 years to cancer, and who found herself on New Year’s Eve with no one to be with．Her aloneness was lasting in that turning-point moment, but her sadness was momentary (短暂的)．“I realized I had a choice, ” she told me．Instead of giving way to loneliness, she chose to find something meaningful to do．
We humans can become bored with defeat．We know something is just the other side．Like a new year, I have two choices．I can brand myself as the long-suffering mother who never thought of how to live on after her children left．Or I can take to the piano in the center of the house each day and practice Ode to Joy with one hand until such time as I feel ready to play with two．
34．What can we know about the author from the first paragraph?
A．She didn’t want to live a lonely life any more．
B．She was curious about her life in the New Year．
C．She had a difficult relationship with her children．
D．She didn’t think her life kept any promise any more．
35．It can be inferred from the passage that the writer would probably________ ．
A．go to live with one of her adult children
B．continue to lose herself in loneliness
C．change her life by doing what she likes
D．take more music classes in college
36．Why does the author mention her friend Lisa?
A．To show there are people with worse lives than herself
B．To point out there are choices even when life is difficult
C．To prove being on one’s own has a big influence on others．
D．To stress the importance of family members on New Year’s Eve．
37．How does the author feel about her future?
A．Uncertain B．Doubtful C．Worried D．Hopeful

五、任务型阅读（10）
根据短文内容, 完成下面表格。
Now telephone, television, radio and the Internet all help people communicate with each other．As a result, ideas and news of events spread quickly all over the world．For example, within seconds, people can know who wins the vote in another country．An international football match comes into the homes of everyone with a TV set．When an earthquake or a flood happens in some places, news of these disasters can bring help from distant countries within hours．Help is on the way．Modern technology like the satellites(人造卫星）makes information travel fast．
How has this speed of communication changed the world? To many people, the world has become smaller．Of course this does not mean that the world is really becoming smaller．It means that the world seems smaller．Two centuries ago, communication between two countries took a long time．In the 17th and 18th centuries, it took six weeks for news from Europe to reach America．This time difference influenced people’s actions．For example, a fight, or a war in 1812 between England and the United States could have been avoided(避免)．A peace agreement had already been signed(签署）．Peace was made in England, but the news of peace took six weeks to reach America．During these six weeks, the large and serious War of New Orleans was fought．Many people lost their lives after the peace agreement had been signed．In the past, communication took much more time than it does now．
With the help of modern technology, it’s much easier to get more information within a short time．Our lives are becoming faster and faster．
