Nikos was an ordinary man. He went through life accepting the mixture of good things and bad things. He never looked for any explanation or reason about why things happened just the way they did.
One morning Nikos woke up. He started to shave, as he did every morning, but then he noticed that the mirror on the bathroom wall wasn't quite straight. He tried to adjust it, but as soon as he touched it, the mirror fell off the wall and hit the floor with a huge crash. It broke into a thousand pieces. Nikos knew that some people thought this was unlucky. "Seven years' bad luck," they said, "when a mirror broke." But Nikos didn't care.
After that he went to make himself a sandwich, which needed some tomato sauce. When he picked up a jar of tomato sauce, it fell from his hand. Tomato sauce was everywhere. Some people, he knew, thought that this was also supposed to bring bad luck. But Nikos didn't care.
On his way to work, he saw a black cat running away from him. He didn't care.
Even though Nikos wasn't superstitious, he thought that something bad was certain to happen to him today. He told everybody at work what had happened. "Something bad will happen to you today," they all said. But nothing bad happened to him.
That evening, his friend thought Nikos was going to have bad things. However, whatever they played, Nikos won. "Go on then, Nikos," his friend shouted, "use all the money you have won to buy some lottery tickets!" Nikos did it. The next day, everybody was watching the draw for the lottery on TV. The first number came out, for the third prize. It was Nikos' number. Then the second number, for the second prize. It was Nikos' number. Then the first prize. It was Nikos' number as well.
He WON all three of the big lottery prizes!
24. The following things are thought of as the signs of unluck EXCEPT ________.
A. A black cat B. A sandwich with tomato sauce
C. A broken mirror D. Spilt tomato sauce
25. What does the underlined word "superstitious" in paragraph 5 mean
A. Not studying or looking at things thoroughly.
B. Controlling bad luck to become good fortune.
C. Believing certain events bring good or bad luck.
D. Taking actions to keep bad things from occurring.
26. Why did Nikos' friend recommend him to buy lottery tickets
A. To test his luck. B. To change his fortune.
C. To bring in more money. D. To use up all the money.
27. What can we infer from the passage
A. Nikos went to great lengths to know what lay behind all the things.
B. The mirror on the bathroom wall broke into pieces out of no reason.
C. The occasional things failed to convince Nikos of the coming bad luck.
D. Nikos' story tells what happens in life has nothing to do with the evil signs.

The Wampanoag language was not dead. To call it dead would be an insult to the ancestors who left it for future generations as a way to communicate-and a way to teach. But it was "unspoken" until linguist Jessie "Little Doe" Baird brought it back. Her project's Wampanoag dictionary holds more than 11,000 entries.
Words on paper are not a language. A language lives through the people who speak it. So Baird founded the W pan ak Language Reclamation Project. She teaches community classes and family camps. Kids in grade school and high school have the opportunity to learn the language.
The Wampanoags have lived for 12,000 years in Massachusetts and parts of Rhode Island. When the Pilgrims (清教徒) met the first Indigenous people, those were the Wampanoags. The English settlers brought disease that killed thousands-an estimated two-thirds of the Wampanoag Nation died-as well as war and rules that fragmented (分裂) the tribes. There once were 69 tribes in the nation; now there are three. Baird is a citizen of the Mashpee tribe. Her ancestors left a key to their language. They translated the King James Bible into Wampanoag. They left hundreds of documents in their written alphabet (字母表).
Baird describes a vision she had where her ancestors helped her see it was time to bring the language home. She began her research, which led her to a graduate degree at Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT), where she learned from and worked with other linguists. In 2010, she was named a MacArthur Foundation Fellow, earning a "genius grant" to further her work.
It's incredibly difficult to reclaim a language, even more so when there are no speakers alive, and even more so when you're driving 90 minutes a day, each way, to attend graduate school, with four small children at home.
"I might have been afraid to do the work had I known that," Baird says with a laugh now. "But I didn't, and so here we are."
28. What is the situation of the Wampanoag language
A. It has entirely gone by now. B. It is being brought back to life.
C. It is a compulsory course in schools. D. It has got well-recognized in the USA.
29. What may contribute to the downfall of Wampanoag
A. The wide use of English in the new land.
B. The religious change of the Wampanoags.
C. The sharp reduced population of Wampanoag.
D. The shortage of reference books on the language.
30. What's the key element of saving the Wampanoag language
A. The local linguists lend a timely hand.
B. Children are asked to learn the language.
C. The government gives the financial support.
D. The materials ancestors left lay the foundation.
31. Which of the following words can best describe Jessie Baird
A. Determined and responsible B. Considerate and ambitious
C. Intelligent and kind-hearted D. Independent and adaptable
D
A poll of 2,000 UK adults found more than one third (36%) admit to rarely, or never, reading cookies or terms and conditions online before accepting them. And of those who do, 38% spend a mere 30 seconds or less scanning through. About 31% simply can't be bothered to read the small print, while about one quarter (26%) claim they do not have the time.
It also emerged that 85% have accepted cookies on a website without reading the policies or making any changes, and that 62% will accept despite not knowing what they are agreeing to.
The research was commissioned (委托) by Avast, which has teamed up with baking star Prue Leith to help educate Internet users about digital cookies. She has created a limited run of her chocolate chip cookies, which are free for people to order online and come with tips and tricks on how to scan the digital kind of cookies.
Prue Leith said, "While recent times have highlighted the importance of being connected online, it's also never been more important for people to feel safe while doing so. Many people of all ages, but particularly of my generation, aren't as familiar with certain aspects of the Internet, and this of course includes digital cookies. This can prove to be a barrier to learning about everything that being online has to offer, so I am absolutely delighted to be working with Avast to help people understand what cookies are and how they work."
The survey also found half of adults are "fed up" with being asked to accept cookies when landing on a web page, although 30% find it helpful that cookies remember information such as passwords and preferences. But 29% are confused by cookie policies, and 70% even believe websites intentionally try to confuse them with the language they use. However, over two thirds (68%) feel they could be risking their online privacy when accepting a "cookie policy" without treading it. As a result, three quarters (75%) think Internet users need to be better educated on what is included in cookie policies.
32. Prue Leith baked a limited run of cookies to ________.
A. promote her baked products online. B. offer free cookies to people in need.
C. maintain the cooperation with Avast. D. spread the knowledge on digital cookies.
33. How does the author present the result of the research
A. By conducting polls. B. By listing statistics.
C. By exploring phenomenon and nature. D. By analyzing causes and effects.
34. What will the author tell in the following paragraph
A. The side effects of leaking personal privacy.
B. The gravity of fully accepting digital cookies.
C. The drawbacks of overlooking digital cookies
D. The specific tips on how to read digital cookies.
35. What's the purpose of the text
A. To remind netizens to pay more attention to digital cookies.
B. To appeal to consumers to be concerned about the online tricks.
C. To advocate caring for the generation unfamiliar with the Internet.
D. To advise the Internet companies to revise digital cookies policies.

阅读下面短文,从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
"We are becoming the people we wanted to be," Gloria Steinem, a journalist and social activist, declared in the 1970s. So have women really become the people they wanted to be Yes. 36 And they are nurses, clerks, doctors, scientists and so on. For a better understanding, here are some true data about women at work.
37
One of the great changes in gender equality is taking place in education. More women graduate from high school, attend and graduate from college. In 1994, 63 percent of female high school graduates and 61 percent of male high school graduates were enrolled in college the following fall, according to the Pew Research Center. By 2012, that number for women jumped to 71 percent, but remained unchanged for males, at 61 percent.
The wage gap between males and females is still existing.
Even as more women are flooding onto college campuses, here's a disappointing trend. 38 But there still is a gap between their earnings and men's earnings. Women in professional specialty occupations earn 72.7 percent of what men in the same position earn.
Is there any place women earn the same as men
No. Unfortunately, there is no such place. But it can be to a woman's advantage to work in a labor union. 39 So, while there is a gap, it's much less than in professions without unions, where women make 72 percent of men's incomes.
Women bring home more income.
40 Over 40 percent of moms are now the sole or primary source of income in U.S. households. Women are now the primary or co-money-maker in nearly two-thirds of American families and working married women bring home 44 percent of their family income.
A. Education is specially significant for women.
B. Women are taking higher education by storm.
C. It is a fact that women climb higher in the work world now.
D. An increasing number of women have joined the workforce.
E. More than ever before, women are the breadwinners in the household.
F. Today, 30 percent of all the businesses are owned and operated by women.
G. Women who work in unionized professions make 82 percent of men's incomes.

George was a driver and he spent so much time at his work that he could hardly have a meal together with his wife and three children. In the evenings he attended classes, seeking to get knowledge that one day would help him to find a better paying job.
George's family often complained that he was not spending enough time with them, but his only answer was, "I am doing all this for you and I work hard to provide my family with the best that I can."
Soon after George had passed his exams, he received a good job offer with a salary, which was significantly higher than he had before. So now George could provide his family with more expensive clothes, some luxury items or vacations in foreign countries. It was like a dream come true, but family still did not get enough attention from George, as he continued to work very hard and often, he did not get to see his family for most of the week.
Time passed and George's hard work paid off-he was promoted. He decided to relieve his wife from domestic works, so he hired a maid. He also decided that their flat was not big enough for their family and they needed a more spacious one. Thus he needed to work even harder and, moreover, he continued his studies, so that he would be promoted again. George worked so hard that sometimes he even had to spend his Sundays with his clients instead of his wife and children. And again, whenever family asked for his time and complained that they did not spend enough time together, he answered he was doing all this only for them.
A bit later George was promoted, and he could buy a spacious house with a beautiful view. On the first Sunday evening at their new home, George told his wife and kids now he decided not to take any studies or work not so hard so that he could spend more time with his beloved family.

My career plan
Good morning, ladies and gentlemen! Now I will give a speech about "My career plan".
When I was a child, I had a dream of becoming a writer. As time goes by, I do confirm what I am willing to do in the future is writing. From my perspective, someone who can transform the pain and pleasure into words can touch others' hearts. Weaving stories and plots with specific words is a fantastic thing exactly.
To achieve my dream, what I first plan to do is pursue a degree in literature which will provide me with a deep understanding of writing skills. What's more, it is a good approach to participating in writing conferences where I can network with other writers and gain valuable feedback on my own articles. With faith and actions, I am determined to be a good writer. That's all for my speech. Thanks for listening.
读后续写:
The next morning, George suddenly felt a sharp pain in his stomach. He was so overwhelmed by the pain that he fell onto the ground, screaming, "Help! Help!" The wife was making up the bed upstairs when she heard the cry from the living room, and she dashed downstairs immediately. She tried hard to lift him up several times, but in vain. It seemed like George lost his body posing herself, the wife finally dialed 911. And soon George was rushed to hospital.
The day finally came when George recovered from his illness. He came to his wife and said, "How lucky I am to have you around me. I can't imagine if something terrible really happened." The wife smiled and gave him a hug, saying, "Our kids and I knew you tried your best to improve our life. If happiness and comfort are achieved at the cost of your health, how can we be happy " George saw his wife's tears streaming down from her cheeks, unable to speak a word anymore. He just wished to stay healthy and spend more time accompanying his family.
