Actually the mechanical teacher was on and waiting for her. It was always on at the same time every day except Saturday and Sunday, because her mother said little girls learned better if they learned at regular time.
The large screen was lit up. “Today’s math lesson is on the addition of proper fractions (分数). Please insert yesterday’s homework in the proper slot (插槽),” Margie did so with a sigh.

When Zhu Caiping,73,was diagnosed with mild cognitive impairment three years ago, she found that anxiety, depression and even looking down on herself became normal in her life. It was not until last year, after she participated in a reality show and became a restaurant server, that her situation began to improve dramatically.
The restaurant in Shanghai where she works is the Forget Me Not Café. It shares the goal of providing job opportunities for elderly people who have Alzheimer's disease or other cognitive impairments.
"I provide basic services for guests, such as pouring water, serving and taking orders. I can now remember all the dishes on the menu, "said Zhu, who has come to the restaurant three times a week since February and works three hours a day. "The colleagues take good care of us. They never allow us to deliver hot dishes such as soups. The guests are also very tolerant of us, because sometimes we make mistakes.”
Because of memory loss, Zhu writes down all the information she wants to remember on sticky notes, such as the names of the volunteers and teacher as well as English words.
"People with cognitive impairment actually refuse and fear to communicate with society, but this will worsen their condition."She added,“With the deterioration (退化)of brain function, they may gradually lose memory and the ability to take care of themselves and might even see the loss of emotions. "In addition to the job opportunities for the elderly, information about cognitive impairment and Alzheimer's disease is posted on a board outside the restaurant to help people recognize symptoms and seek treatment as soon as possible.
As China faces an aging population, the increasing number of seniors with cognitive impairment has become a significant social issue. “We should feel lucky that the whole of society is concerned about the seniors, especially for people like us. The neighborhood committee always checks on our situation and watches for other elderly people with symptoms." Zhu said.
28. What can we know about Zhu Caiping?
A. She always made mistakes at work.B. She made efforts to be equal to the job.C. She was a full-time restaurant server in a Shanghai café.D. She was one of those suffering from severe cognitive impairment.29. How might people with cognitive impairment feel?
A. Forgetful and upset. B. Anxious but lucky.C. Tolerant and careful. D. Indifferent but energetic.30. Why is information about cognitive impairment posted outside the restaurant?
A. To provide treatment for the sick.B. To seek approval from the citizens.C. To offer the elderly job opportunities.D. To equip people with relevant knowledge.31. In which section of a newspaper the passage most likely be found?
A. Health. B. Society. C. Culture. D. Business.D
Compared with the obvious environmental issues we hear about every day, littering often takes a backseat-but it's more pressing than we may think.
Some may say that a banana peel out of your car along the motorway would be a harmless action. Actually,they are wrong. A banana peel can take up to two years to decompose (分解),and with a third of motorists admitting to littering while driving, that’s a whole lot of discarded banana peels,or much worse. An orange peel and a cigarette butt has a similar biodegrading (生物降解)term to that of a banana,but tin and aluminum cans last up to 100 years;and plastic bottles last forever, so do glass bottles and plastic bags.
Despite the fact that longer-lasting materials will serve to damage the environment and its animals for longer, we can't only measure the severity of a certain type of rubbish by its lifetime. For example, despite having a fairly short biodegrading span, more than 120 tons of cigarette-related litter is thrown away in the UK every day. Similarly, our regular littering here and there has caused the UK's mouse population to increase by 60 million. This suddenly isn't so mysterious when you consider that since the 1960s our annual littering has increased by an amazing 500 per cent.
It's not a cheap habit either: UK taxpayers spent £500 million on keeping the streets clean. So, it’s not surprising that if caught fly-tipping, you could face a£20,000 fine. Regardless of how severe the punishment might seem, however, among the reported cases only 2,000 were punished out of 825,000, so we still have some way to go in making sure people observe the rules.
To take back our beautiful cities, we need to do more than simply not leaving rubbish where it ought not to be. We need to care more about the world around us.
32. Which of the following is easiest to decompose comparatively?
A. An orange peel. B. A plastic bag.C. An aluminum can. D. A glass bottle.33. What can we know from Para.3?
A. Annual littering has increased a little in UK since the 1960s.B. Shorter-lasting materials will be less harmful to the environment.C. Cigarette-related litter is a severe environmental problem in UK.D. Regular littering has caused the UK's mouse population to reach 60 million.34. Which of the following can best describe UK's punishment on littering according to Para.4?
D. More haste, less speed.35.What is the best title of the passage?
A. Rubbish collection, an urgent task.B. Environment issue, a big concern.C. Littering, a surprisingly big issue.D. Long-lasting material, a hidden danger.第二节(共5小题;每小题2.5分,满分12.5分)

Having a college roommate is most people's first experience living with someone who is not related to them. It comes with both benefits and challenges.36 You get an instant friend, someone to confide in and keep you company during your first time away from home. However, since many colleges randomly assign your first roommate, you also run the risk of being matched with someone you find challenging. Either way, here’s some good advice:
Establish some rules
37 In this way, you and your roommate are clear on what to do to avoid conflict. Establish what space is whose, when you need quiet time to study, which items you can share, what time you go to bed, if you like to sleep in on weekends and who's allowed to eat what in the refrigerator.
Practice direct communication
Practicing direct communication will help you in good times and bad. Dorm rooms are close quarters, so even if you get along with your roommate, there is bound to be a disagreement or two.38 You can't expect your roommate to be a mind reader, so if you get upset or frustrated, communicate it to your roommate right away.39 You'll find such way gets better reception and ultimately a better response than if you just attack or criticize.
Compromise sometimes
When it comes to doing chores around the room, listening to certain kinds of music, watching different TV shows and requesting privacy, compromise is key. If you give a little, your roommate will give a little. Compromising does not refer to giving in to all of someone's requests.40 So, utilize positive communication, and talk through the things you and your roommate differ on until you can reach a compromise.
A. Make your preferences known from the start.
B. Instead, it means coming to a mutual agreement.
C. Handle such conflicts with open communication.
D. It refers to persuading others to accept your opinion.
E. Use a respectful tone and choose your words carefully.
F. In this situation, listening to your roommates is very important.
G. Getting along with your roommate can enhance your college experience.

阅读下面短文,在空白处填入1个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。
Poetry,56 universal form of literature, plays an important role in ancient China. Poetry probably had its origins in traditional folk music tens of thousands of years ago. In that era, there were no TVs or films, and57 (write) had not been invented, so people would sit around the fire at night and sing songs58 (entertain) themselves. These songs reflected themes from the people's daily59 (life), such as hunting animals or sowing crops. Since nothing was set down, over the years different versions of these songs developed, and each area would have its own respective rhythm. In addition to this, people would recite stories of past heroes.
As these stories were often quite long, they often had rhyme and rhythm to help people remember them more60 (easy). While in the beginning such songs and stories had a very simple format, over time they became more complicated and61 (pretty). These were no longer the works of amateurs sitting around a fire,62 works of true poets who cared about their art and who sometimes made a living from it.
Poetry plays with sounds, words, and grammar,63 makes poetry difficult to write but very interesting to read. Poetry uses colors, feelings, experiences, and images to paint a picture in your mind. Today, many Chinese people64 (become) more interested in reading poems, no matter65 what language they are written. Translation is good, but being able to read in what language is best.

阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
After a very meaningful conversation with my dad about the old days, we came up with an object that we both remembered clearly. It was my very first bicycle. My mind told me I got it when I was seven, who was cheated to ride it for fifty yards alone the first time I tried!
My dad put together all the small pieces of the bicycle from a beautiful material that he called, “Your own car." Of course I knew he had some magical ability, but I didn't think he could make such an awesome object. He added the seat and the pedals(踏板)so that I would not have any problems. My dad recalled the bicycle was the smallest he could find while I remember how huge it was. I was so afraid of it and there was no way that I was going to control that monster-sized material. The bicycle was left in my backyard as a decoration for a month because l refused to ride it. Honestly, I was scared to try it.
After a month, my dad gave me a lecture to teach me what being a man was all about. I was finally determined to try it. My dad was proud of me and I felt very manly. He and I went to the park to see what we could do there.
The park was empty when we arrived. I had no doubt that my dad told everybody not to be there because we had to use it. I felt sorry for other people,but I was proud to have such an omnipotent(全能的)person as my dad.
We found a smooth and open space. My dad was holding the back part of the seat to make sure I didn't fell. He promised me that I was not going to fall because he would be running right behind, holding the bicycle.

Dear Jessica,
Happy Chinese New Year! During the Spring Festival, my friend and I organized a new year party/gathering on New years’ eve, and I would like to share this unforgettable time with you.
Given that the Spring Festival is a chance for reunion, I proposed holding the party at my home and altogether ten classmates were involved in it. Under the guidance of my mom, we learned to make dumplings, for dumpling is an indispensable dish for Chinese New Year. Besides, sugarcane juice was also prepared, which symbolizes a sweet brand-new year. After dinner, we sat around to make paper-cuttings together and exchanged our works with others’ to convey our best wishes.
If possible, come and experience our Chinese New Year the next year! (124字)
Yours

范文1:
I started to pedal and the bicycle moved. Sweat welling on my forehead, I tried my utmost to keep the balance by controlling the handle. Sort of afraid as I was, I made myself calm down because I knew my dad would keep protecting me. What I needed to do was holding the bars and keeping pedaling. With it moving, I felt it wasn't as difficult as I had expected and even began to speed up. So delighted was I that I wanted to yell out and share my feelings with my dad.
I turned around and found my dad was not behind. A great sense of shock and scare seized me and my mind suddenly went blank. My body began shaking and I fell off the bicycle. Lying on the ground, I felt great pains on my legs. Then Dad approached and said, “Be manly.” Regaining my courage, I climbed onto the bicycle again. I held the bars tightly and made efforts to balance my body. My father commented I was one of the quickest learners he had ever seen. But he didn't realize it was the almighty sense of security and trust from him that played the best part.
范文2:
I started to pedal and the bicycle moved. “Look straight forward and keep hold of the handle tightly!” My father emphasized. With palms sweating and legs trembling, I made every effort to keep the balance and the bike was winding forward slowly. Deeply convinced that my dad was holding my back seat, I was much in relief and wobbled off down the road. All of a sudden, I stumbled on the uneven ground and fell flat on my face. A sharp pain swept across my whole body and I couldn't help bursting into tears.
I turned around and found my dad was not behind. In a fit of anger, I blurted out, “Dad, you promised to hold my back seat, why did you let it go?” My dad ran up to me, carefully checked my situation and comforted, “Dear, actually you have pedaled for about 50 yards, by yourself!” Rooted to the spot, I almost couldn’t believe my ears. Everything is difficult before they are easy. Try again?” Inspired by his words, I picked up my courage and had a second try, finally realizing what being a man was all about.
