• 1．Buzzwords （流行詞匯） Splinternet
     Europe is floating regulation that could impose temporary bans on US tech companies that violate its laws.If such territorial （地方性的） agreements become more common，the globally-connected Internet we know will more like what some have called the "splinternet"，or a collection of different Internets whose limits are determined by national or regional borders.
     Cyberpunk
     -Do you think we are already in a cyberpunk age？
     -I think we are.Just look around us，we are enjoying the fruit of high technology when we order almost everything at our fingertips.But the people delivering the products can't even have a decent meal.That's a typical "high tech，low life" contrast.
     Mansplaining
     -You must follow my instructions to complete the project.Don't you ever screw up.
     -Stop mansplaining，OK？I'm far more experienced than you.
     Digital natives
     If you are wondering why "Phone" app icon is designed like that and looks almost the same on every smartphone，you are definitely one of the digital natives who don't know what a telephone is.
     Social bankruptcy
     Have you ever found it extremely exhausting trying to maintain a balanced relationship with all your social media friends and followers？Perhaps it's time that you go social bankruptcy.Just close all your accounts and go out and enjoy the sunshine.

• 2．I love seeing Europeans line up in airports to applaud arriving refugees.But humanitarianism（人道主義）will not guide policy for long.We liberals need to argue from Europe's self-interest：our continent has the need，the space and the ability to accept people.
     Many European countries are gradually turning into old people's homes.Germany，Italy，Spain and others have some of the lowest birth rates in human history.It is predicted that about one-third of their populations will be aged over 65 in 2050.Germany needs to import at least 350，000 people a year to keep its workforce stable.Suddenly，young ambitious workers are pouring into the country as if called by a genie （精靈） with a lamp.No wonder Angela Merkel，German Chancellor，has been more welcoming than David Cameron，British Prime Minister.But all over Europe，carers for old people are already in need.Norway found oil under the seabed but it would have been better off if it had discovered 50，000 nurses there instead.
     Many rightwingers think we have reached our limits.This feeling is widespread.And it's true that Western Europe is one of the most densely populated regions on earth.Indeed，density has long been Europe's unique selling point：with so many people of different nations closely packed together，we have always traded goods and exchanged ideas fast.That's why the scientific revolution of the 16th and 17th centuries happened here.
     But we have plenty more room.Many European cities aren't dense enough.Now east Germany，north-western Spain and gorgeous mountain villages in Italy are losing people.Lots of cities have unused industrial land.
     Humans inhabit a slice of the EU's territory.Only about 2.5 per cent of the EU's land is used for housing，estimates the European Commission.By contrast，a whopping 43 per cent was used for agriculture in 2009，it says.That's too much.We could turn more land into forest or into green landscapes where people can relax and play.Making that transition is feasible because we now use agricultural land inefficiently.
     Migrants often spend years locked up together in serious government-funded "migrant centers".However，the way to learn a new country's language，make friends and find work is to live with a local.This crisis has shown that lots of Europeans are willing to take refugees into their homes.After Iceland's government said it could take only 50 Syrian refugees，many Icelanders came forward offering to take a far greater number into their own homes.People aren't just sitting around waiting for government to do something.
     We need migrants，and we can accommodate them.If opponents just don't like foreigners，they should say so instead of pretending to be hardheaded pragmatists （實(shí)用主義者）.
  
  （1）Why is Angela Merkel willing to take in refugees according to the passage？

  
  A．Germany has already stepped into aged society.
  B．Birth rates in Germany are the lowest in history.
  C．She is kind and shows sympathy for homeless people.
  D．Refugees can make up the shortage of labor in Germany.
  （2）Which of the following statements is TRUE？

  
  A．No other region is more densely populated than Western Europe.
  B．Density has become Europe's most outstanding characteristic.
  C．All European cities are not crowded together in great numbers.
  D．Large quantities of unused industrial land will turn into forest.
  （3）It can be inferred that

  .
  A．nurses are more badly needed than petrol in Europe
  B．liberals always do something for the Europe's benefit
  C．a(chǎn)ging problem in Germany is the worst in Europe
  D．Europeans have already made intelligent use of the land
  （4）What is the last paragraph but one mainly about？

  
  A．Migrants can privately be accommodated.
  B．Migrants had better not live in migrant centers.
  C．Everyone can live with migrants to help them fit in.
  D．Everyone has done their own part to help migrants.

• 3．Popularization has in some cases changed the original meaning of emotional（情感的）intelligence.Many people now misunderstand emotional intelligence as almost everything desirable in a person's makeup that cannot be measured by an IQ test，such as character，motivation，confidence，mental stability，optimism and "people skills." Research has shown that emotional skills may contribute to some of these qualities，but most of them move far beyond skill-based emotional intelligence.
     We prefer to describe emotional intelligence as a specific set of skills that can be used for either good or bad purposes.The ability to accurately understand how others are feeling may be used by a doctor to find how best to help her patients，while a cheater might use it to control potential victims.Being emotionally intelligent does not necessarily make one a moral person.
     Although popular beliefs regarding emotional intelligence run far ahead of what research can reasonably support，the overall effects of the publicity have been more beneficial than harmful.The most positive aspect of this popularization is a new and much needed emphasis（重視）on emotion by employers，educators and others interested in promoting social well-being.The popularization of emotional intelligence has helped both the public and researchers re-evaluate the functionality of emotions and how they serve people adaptively in everyday life.
     Although the continuing popular appeal of emotional intelligence is desirable，we hope that such attention will excite a greater interest in the scientific and scholarly study of emotion.It is our hope that in coming decades，advances in science will offer new perspectives（視角）from which to study how people manage their lives.Emotional intelligence，with its focus on both head and heart，may serve to point us in the right direction.
  
  （1）What is a common misunderstanding of emotional intelligence？

  
  A．It can be measured by an IQ test.
  B．It helps to exercise a person's mind.
  C．It includes a set of emotional skills.
  D．It refers to a person's positive qualities.
  （2）Why does the author mention "doctor" and "cheater" in paragraph 2？

  
  A．To explain a rule.
  B．To clarify a concept.
  C．To present a fact.
  D．To make a prediction.
  （3）What is the author's attitude to the popularization of emotional intelligence？

  
  A．Favorable.
  B．Intolerant.
  C．Doubtful.
  D．Unclear.
  （4）What does the last paragraph mainly talk about concerning emotional intelligence？

  
  A．Its appeal to the public.
  B．Expectations for future studies.
  C．Its practical application.
  D．Scientists with new perspectives.

第二節(jié)（滿分25分）

• 9．閱讀下面材料，根據(jù)其內(nèi)容和所給段落開頭續(xù)寫兩段，使之構(gòu)成一篇完整的短文。
      My presentation was horrible.I lost the client.My boss wouldn't look me in the eye and the rest of my day was spent in relative silence -I was left alone，in reality.Finally，I left my air-conditioned office and of course，outside it was hot as hell.I was hot literally and figuratively as three buses passed，too full to stop and then the one that did stop should have kept going because the Air Conditioning wasn't working.
      I boarded the bus but was unable to stand it，so I squeezed my way off at the next stop.I would just walk the mile and a half to home.I annoyed further，as I continued my journey.I refused to take off my jacket purposely maximizing my frustrations- when it rains let it pour was my philosophy.
      A block from my building，I heard the water splashing and kids screaming so I knew the fire hydrant had been turned on.Without even thinking about taking an alternate route，I turned the corner，sure enough，there was a group of kids playing in the water.They were politely on the lookout to stop the water from spraying on any passers-by.So when they saw me they stopped the water and when they saw my mean look they even got quiet.The younger ones in bathing suits，the girls wearing shower caps and the boys with water guns all stared at me as I started to pass by.
      Then I noticed a little one，no older than five，holding a water gun down by his side，eying me a little harder than the others.I eyed him back.Then his brother，who I'd seen around the neighborhood，nodded at him like he was saying， "I dare you." My eyes tightened a little further as I communicated my own "I dare you" to the five-year-old.Then his eyes moved，planning his escape route through the alley，and in that spit second I knew I was going to get soaked.
  注意：
  1.續(xù)寫詞數(shù)應(yīng)為150左右；
  2.請(qǐng)按如下格式在答題卡的相應(yīng)位置作答。
  Paragraph 1
  And he got me，behind my ear，before he ran toward his exit.___________
    Paragraph 2
  I couldn't remember my last water fight.
