But a nearby homeless man didnt let her go far, telling her to go back in the car and lock the doors while he went instead. McClure said the man, Johnny, spent his last$20 on a can of gas for her.While she didnt have cash to give him at the time, she and her boyfriend returned to Johnnys spot along the side of the road the next day to return the money. Over the following weeks, she kept stopping by to chat with Johnny and give him a few dollars. Finally she decided to set up a GoFundMe page for him earlier this month, intending to raise $10,000. “I wish that I could do more for this selfless man, who went out of his way just to help me that day,” McClure wrote on the page. “He is such a great guy, and talking to him each time I see him makes me want to help him more and more.”To date, the campaign has raised over $300,000 outstripping its goal. Many of the 10,400 donors（捐贈(zèng)者）contributed $10 or $20. McClure originally intended to use the funds to set Johnny up in his own apartment with some necessities and enough money to last him a few months while he looked for employment.As support kept pouring in, McClure briefly stopped the campaign earlier this week on the request of Johnny, who didnt want to take advantage of the kindness of strangers. She restarted it, however, by popular demand.Faced with a huge surplus（過(guò)剩）of the funding（捐款）, McClure said, “Johnny has more than a few ideasof where this money can go and how it will be used for meaningful purposes.” “It will be his decision and his decision only on what organizations or private parties he decides to help!” she wrote.24Why did McClure start the campaign?ATo show her pity for Johnny.BTo respond to peoples demand.CTo repay Johnnys kindness to her.DTo raise peoples awareness of the homeless.25What does the underlined word “outstripping” mean in Paragraph 3?AAchieving.BTopping.CBackingDChanging.26How will Johnny probably spend the extra funds?AReturn them to the donors .BBuy himself an apartment.CSet up an organization.DHelp those in need.27Which of the following words can best describe Johnny?AHonest and admirable.BBrave and considerate.CGenerous and enthusiastic.DDetermined and responsible.CAnts are truly amazing creatures. In addition to gifts like predicting earthquakes and saving themselves from drowning during floods, the hardworking insects go all out to protect their own members, often carrying the wounded back to the nest to recover. Now, researchers have discovered ants who explode andsacrifice（犧牲）themselves to save their nests from attackers.Although scientists have known about the existence of exploding ants since 1916, they were first found in the rainforests of Borneo in Southeast Asia by an international team of researchers led by Alice Laciny, a graduate student at the Natural History Museum, Vienna.The researchers noticed that during the day, when the ants went outside to look for food, they would be closely monitored by a small army of “guards”, who touched each member as it went in and out of the nest.Upon running into an attacker, the guard ant would move its back part towards the attacking creature and shrink（縮?。﹊ts stomach. This caused the ants body to explode and release a yellow, deadly goo（粘狀物）, which instantly killed the attacker.The ability to explode, however, was not universal among the species and appeared to be unique to minor worker ants, usually the smallest ants of the nest. Even more interesting was that while the minor members were blowing themselves up, the large worker ants with oversized heads, placed barriers at the nests entrance to prevent other possible enemies from entering.While the protective measure may sound extreme, Tomer Czazkes believes it is necessary. The behavioral ecologist at Germanys University of Regensburg says since the insects live in large groups, theyare a natural and easy source of food for ant eaters. They, therefore, have to find ways to protect themselves. Ants are not the only insects known to conduct this type of voluntary self-sacrifice. Older termites（白蟻）,who have lost their abilities of nesting and finding food, also explode onto their enemies.Next, the researchers hope to find out the make-up of their yellow goo, how they use their explosions to take down larger attackers and so on.28Whats the major function of Paragraph 1?ATo tell us ants are gifted.BTo lead to the main topic of the text. CTo say ants face more challenges.DTo show concern for ants safety.29What is regarded as more interesting for the author?AThe minor ants voluntary self-sacrifice.BThe guard ants touching each other. CThe large ants blocking the nest entrance.DThe guard ants shrinking their stomachs.30What do scientists plan to do in the future?AReveal more secrets about the exploding ants. BDiscover if the ants can kill larger attackers.CTell the difference between the ants and older termites. DDo more research on the older termites.31What can be a suitable title for the text?AWorker Ants Are Easy to AttackBAnts Are Expert in Protecting Themselves CWorker Ants Explode to Protect Their Nests DGraduate Student Discovered New Kind of AntsDNext month, Im traveling to a remote area of Central Africa and my aim is to know enough Lingala one of the local languages to have a conversation. I wasnt sure how I was going to manage this until I discovered a way to learn all the vocabulary Im going to need. Thanks to Memrise, the app（應(yīng)用程序） Im using. It feels just like a game.“People often stop learning things because they feel theyre not making progress or because it all feels like too much hard work,” says Ed Cooke, one of the people who created Memrise. “Were trying to create a form of learning experience that is fun and is something youd want to do instead of watching TV.”Memrise gives you a few new words to learn and these are “seeds” which you plant in your“greenhouse”. When you practice the words, you “water your plants”. When the app believes that you have really remembered a word, it moves the word to your “garden”. And if you forget to log on（登錄）, the app sends you emails that remind you to “water your plants”.The app uses two principles about learning. The first is that people remember things better when they link them to a picture in their mind. Memrise translates words into your own language, but it alsoencourages you to use “mems”. For example, I memorized motele, the Lingala word for “engine”, using a mem I created I imagined an old engine in a motel（汽車旅館）room.The second principle is that we need to stop after studying words and then repeat them again later, leaving time between study sessions. Memrise helps you with this, because its the kind of app you only use for five or ten minutes a day.Ive learnt hundreds of Lingala words with Memrise. I know this wont make me a fluent speaker, but I hope Ill be able to do more than just smile when I meet people in Congo. Now, I need to go and water my vocabulary!32What does Ed Cooke make an effort to do with Memrise?ACreate memorable experiences.BCombine study with entertainment. CMake progress with hard work.DMaster languages through games.33What do the underlined words “water your plants” in Paragraph 3 refer to? ALogging on to the app.BBeing a Memrise user.CLearning new words.DTaking care of your garden.34How does Memrise work?ABy linking different mems together.BBy applying a linked memory approach. CBy offering human translation services.DBy putting knowledge into practice.35What is the authors attitude towards Memrise?APositive.BDoubtful.CUncaring.DNegative.第二節(jié)（共 5 小題；每小題 2 分，滿分 10 分） 根據(jù)短文內(nèi)容，從短文后的選項(xiàng)中選出能填入空白處的最佳選項(xiàng)。選項(xiàng)中有兩項(xiàng)為多余選項(xiàng)。 If you have a dog, you know the damage they can do to a garden. They dig under bushes, pound out adirty path by the fence, or even eat your beautiful flowers.36. In spite of that, we still love them. Thats why I put together these dog-lover tips for gardening.Before you start planting, its important to note your dogs personality. 37 . So is your dog a patroller, a digger, or a chewer? Get a general idea of the most common behaviors of your dog and youll have a good idea of what to plan for.If your dog patrols the yard constantly circling the yard, you need to plant around it. 38 . Keep high-traffic and patrolling zones open. Plant tall plants that will grow above your dog. Containers or raised planter boxes are a great choice if you want to plant more colorful flowers. 39, add a low or high fence around an area you dont want your dog to dig. Cover digging areasis also a neat trick. Another choice is a sandbox because sand doesnt get muddy, dries quickly, and shakes off easier. If you dont want it where your dog is already digging you can try putting the sandbox in a shady area of the yard.If your dog likes to chew, pay special attention to his safety. Certain plants can be poisonous and create health problems for your dog. Just go to some websites for information about poisonous plants for dogs. 40 .AIf your dog is a diggerBWhen you stop your dog from chewing CDont plant where your dog always goesDThey will give you more on each plant so you can do your research EWe shouldnt have to shout at them every time they are in the yardFDifferent animals have different natural abilities, and no two dogs are the same GThey are quick to turn your beautiful garden into their own personal playground第三部分 語(yǔ)言知識(shí)運(yùn)用（共兩節(jié)，滿分 45 分）第一節(jié)（共 20 小題；每小題 1.5 分，滿分 30 分）閱讀下面短文，從短文后各題所給的 A、B、C 和 D 四個(gè)選項(xiàng)中，選出可以填入空白處的最佳選項(xiàng)。At the beginning of our next class, I asked if someone wanted to share what happened when they told someone they loved them. As was usually the 41 , I fully expected one of the women to 42 , but on this evening one of the men raised his hand. He appeared quite 43 and a bit shaken.He began by saying, “Dennis, I was quite 44 with you last week when you gave us this 45 . I didnt feel that I had anyone to say those words to, and 46 , who were you to tell me to do something that is 47 ? But as I began driving home a(n) 48 deep down in my heart started talking to me. It was 49 me that I knew exactly who I needed to say I love you to. You see, five years ago, my father and I had a cruel 50 and really never resolved it since that time. We 51 seeing each other unless we totally had to at Christmas or other family 52 . But even then, we 53 spoke to each other. So, last Tuesday by the time I got home I had 54 myself I was going to tell my father I loved him.”“Its 55 , but just making that decision 56to lift a heavy load off my chest.”“When I got home, I rushed into the house to tell my wife what I was going to do. She was already in 57 , but I woke her up anyway. She catapulted (彈射) out and 58 me, and for the first time in our married life she saw me cry. We 59 half the night drinking coffee and talking.
