In the trailer(拖车式房屋),Sischo was refreshing the snails(蜗牛)accommodations—an ongoing routine that takes days of careful work.He had found a dozen of Achatinella bulimoides—a third of the world's population of the species.Once every individual was accounted for,he cleaned the cage and packed in new leaves.The work took much trouble,but the responsibility,he said,was like“a heavy weight sitting on you.”

The trailer is very vulnerable.It’s designed to keep away would-be thieves,and to resist hurricanes. But a fire could easily destroy it,or a disease could sweep through it.Last September,a mystery pathogen（病原体）appeared to have entered the trailer on leaves fed to the snails,killing almost an entire species.As sad as the event was,there’s no good way to insure against future catastrophe.The snails can’t simply be spread among zoos or other facilities:they need special equipment,experienced handlers, and a diet of native Hawaiian plants.

Consequently,it can be hard for the snails'minders to relax,even when they are outside the trailer.“How do you switch off,when your decisions mean existence or extinction?"Sischo said.While action lightens the burden,yet with animals whose natural history is largely unknown,that action can be dangerous."If you do it wrong,the snails die.”

Snails are neither intelligent nor beloved.Sischo's friends sometimes tease him about being"the strange snail guy”;strangers ask why he cares.It's hard to convince people,but he insists that if he can just get them in the trailer,they will understand why the Achatinella bulimoides are worth saving.“People melt,”he said.“When you show them that the entire population is in this chamber,it hits them.”

24.What is the trailer used for?

A.Accommodating guests

B.Sheltering snails

C.Planting vegetables.

D.Alarming thieves.

25.What does the underlined word“vulnerable”mean in paragraph2?

A.Quiet.

B.Safe.

C.Easily affected.

D.Well protected.

26.What is the snail minders’attitude towards their job?

A.Relaxed.

B.Confident.

C.Cautious.

D.Disapproving.

27.Which of the following could be the best title for the text?

A.The Last of Its Kind

B.The Worst of Times

C.Mourn Its Loss

D.Resist Possible DangersC

In the old days,when you had to drive to a movie theater or go to a video store to get some entertainment,it was easy to see how your actions could have an impact on the environment.You were hopping into your car,driving across town and coughing out emissions（排放）and using gas all the way.

But now that we’re used to staying at home and streaming movies,we might get a little cocky.After all,we’re just picking up our phones or maybe turning on the TV.You’re welcome,Mother Nature.

Not so fast,says a recent report from the French-based Shift Project.Watching a half-hour show would lead to3.5pounds of CO2emissions.That’s like driving3.9miles.According to"Climate Crisis: The Unsustainable Use of Online Video,"digital technologies are responsible for4%of greenhouse gas emissions,and that energy use is increasing by9%a year.Stored in data centers,videos are transferred to our terminals such as computers,smart phones,etc.via networks:all these processes require electricity whose production consumes resources and usually involves CO2emissions.

In the European Union,the Eureca project lead scientist,Rabih Bashroush,calculated that5billion downloads and streams of the song"Despacito"consumed as much electricity as the countries of Chad, Guinea-Bissau,Somalia,Sierra Leone and the Central African Republic used in a single year.

Streaming is only expected to increase as we become more attached to our devices.Online video use is expected to account for80%of all internet traffic by2022according to CISCO.By then,about 60%of the world's population will be online.

You're probably not going to give up your streaming services,but there are things you can do to help lessen the impact of your online use.

Here are some tips:

●Disable autoplay for video on social media.

●Stream over Wi-Fi,not mobile networks.

●Watch on the smallest screen you can.

●Don’t use high-definition（高清）video on devices.

28.It can be inferred from paragraph2that people think____________

A.they should welcome Mother Nature

B.watching movies at home is more fun

C.it is inconvenient to drive to a movie theater

D.streaming at home avoids possible emissions

29.We may learn from the text that____________

A.3.9miles drive may produce3.5pounds of CO2

B.digital technologies account for4%of electricity use

C.online video use makes up80%of all internet traffic

D.60%of the world’s population watch videos online30.Why are the five countries mentioned in paragraph4?

A.To praise their energy-efficient practice.

B.To prove the poverty of the five countries

C.To stress the popularity of the song“Despacito”

D.To show the high energy use of downloads and streams

31.How can people help to save energy when streaming?

A.Use high-definition videos.

B.Turn off video autoplay

C.Stream over mobile networks.

D.Watch movies on bigger screens.

D

Picture a lecture session at a business school and you probably imagine students gazing at screens filled with equations（方程式）.What you might not expect is students attempting to sing“O clap your Hands”.But Bartleby was treated to this delight on a visit to Saïd Business School in Oxford earlier this year.

There was a catch.Some of the students had to try conducting the chorus.The first to take the challenge was a rather self-confident young man.It didn’t take long for him to go wrong.His most obvious mistake was to start conducting without asking the singers how they would like to be directed, though they had the expertise and he was a complete beginner.

The session,organized by Pegram Harrison,a senior fellow in entrepreneurship（企业家精神）, cleverly allowed the students to absorb some important leadership lessons.For example,leaders should listen to their teams,especially when their colleagues have specialist knowledge.

Other business schools have also realized that their students can learn from the arts.At Carnegie Mellon University,Leanne Meyer has introduced a leadership-training programme that includes poetry and a book club.She believed that involvement in such pursuits can help develop empathy（同理心）in future leaders and that the programme benefits students in terms of how they promote themselves to recruiters（招聘人员）.

The Royal Academy of Dramatic Art(RADA)has trained many great dramatists.It also offers training courses for managers.“Acting about finding the truth in the character and in yourself.”says Walker-Wise,one of RADA'S tutors.Being a manager involves a lot more than just setting targets.It requires empathy and a knowledge of human nature.An education in the arts might help develop those qualities.Above all,the students on Harrison's Course were experiencing something Bartleby never expected to see in those attending an MBA lecture:they were having fun.

32.What does“this delight"in paragraph1refer to?

A.Singing in a business class.

B.Visiting Saïd Business School

C Picturing a lecture session. D.Gazing a screens full of equations.

33.Which of the following best describes the session by Pegram Harrison?

A.Common and influential.

B.Educational and effortless.

C.Challenging and instructive.

D.Controversial and practical.

34.What should a leader do based on the conducting experience?

A.Offer promotion opportunities.

B.Value team members’opinion.

C.Set specific targets.

D.Control every step.

35.How does acting contribute to being a manager?

A.It provides entertainment.

B.It develops goal-setting skills.

C.It exposes the truth in business.

D.It helps understand human nature.

Put on a new set of glasses for a new view

Today I visited San Francisco’s modern-art museum.I was there to see a new exhibit about spaceflight.36I like to“visit”this particular painting every time I go to the museum not only because it evokes（唤起）strong feelings,but because I always find something new.

There's real pleasure to be found in revisiting a museum,replaying a game or rewatching a movie. Some of that enjoyment comes from the feeling of familiarity,of course.37There’s always plenty more to see,hear,taste,smell,feel,or understand the second or third time around.But how do you discover the exciting new thing in the familiar?

One way is approaching whatever task is at hand by searching for the things that you didn't see in the first time around.First,recognize that everything is always changing.38Second,remove judgment from the experience,if possible,and just observe what's new.For example,look for the ways in which a change in your neighborhood is interesting or exciting.

39That could mean removing sugar,coffee,a certain kind of media from your life for a specified time.Once the break is over,that same thing will have more of its former interest or excitement. 40So it’s true that novelty is fun,but given enough of a break in between,repeated experiences regain that initial excitement.

A.Repeated experiences like this are valuable.

B.Visiting a new country brings fresh experience.

C.Coffee will never taste better if you quit it for a month.

D.But the piece of art that made me cry was a familiar one.

E.But it also comes from noticing new things in what is so familiar.

F.So the second experience is never exactly the same as the first one.

G.Another way is changing your routine and taking a break of some kind.第三部分英语知识运用(共两节，满分45分)
