She was attracted by the “tiny silver needles that could smooth the pain of a patient” used in acupuncture (针刺疗法).Following her curiosity, the high school student in France, who was learning Chinese about a decade ago, was eager to find out more about traditional Chinese medicine.She majored in both Chinese and Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) at college. Then, considering TCM to be more developed in Britain, where there were a few private hospitals of TCM, she did an internship (实习医生的工作）at a TCM clinic in Leeds, Britain. That was where she heard about the scholarship of the first Confucius Institute for TCM.In 2013, she studied Chinese at the Confucius Institute in Leeds for three months, and won a scholarship. She then started a one-year internship in the Acupuncture Department of Heilongjiang University of Chinese Medicine in Harbin.“I thought at the beginning that with the knowledge and techniques of acupuncture, it would not be so difficult. After all, acupuncture should be the same everywhere, right?” the 27-year-old woman recalled. Before long, she found with dismay that she was wrong.Later on, she moved to the Internal Medicine Department, where she learned to give prescriptions (药方). Learning the properties, position and curative effects of TCM was difficult but useful.And now she is in her third year of graduate studies supported by the local government in Northeast Chinas Heilongjiang Province. “I will go back to France as an inheritor (继承者）and municator of traditional Chinese culture and help those in need with my knowledge and skills,” Anaelle Regniel shared in a speech at the 2017 Confucius Institute Open Day in Beijing in September.24. What can we learn from the second paragraph?A. Acupuncture is very popular in France. B. Anaelle Regniel was curious about Chinese.C. Traditional Chinese Medicine holds great attraction for Anaelle Regniel.D. Analle Regniel came to China when she was in high school.25. Why did Anaelle Regniel do an internship in Britain?A. She couldnt find a job in France. B. She was admitted into a university in Britain.C. She wanted to get a scholarship from the Confucius Institute.D. She could get more chances to learn traditional Chinese medicine.26. Which of the following words can best describe Anaelle Regniel?A. Curious and stubborn. B. Caring and interesting.C. Determined and ambitious. D. Helpful and considerate.27. What does the underlined phrase with dismay in Paragraph 5 probably mean?A. Regretfully. B. Fortunately. C. Surprisingly. D. Accidentally.CDo two kids make a perfect family? Share your views about this issue in the ment section. Badmofaux(China) When you decide to have another child, you should plan your budget in advance. If you or your parents cant take care of your baby, you have to at least spend an extra 5,000 yuan per month to hire a babysitter. If you want to send your kids to study abroad, you have to save another 1 million yuan.I think most young Chinese couples cannot afford the expense. Bucu(US) Two is more than twice the work. There is no guaranteeing theyll share interests; they could very well fight or want to head off in pletely different directions. If you find you love the second one more than the first, I dont see how that could possibly make life simple, as children are very sensitive to that sort of thing. My advice is to take care of yourself and take time for your love for the first child to relax and grow before even thinking about having a second child. Steven(US)I always thought having two kids sounded perfect. But when my daughter was born with life-threatening health problems, I knew she would be my only kid. Raising our daughter was going to take a lot of emotional, physical and financial resources.If I had any more children, I dont think I could handle it.William(China)Under the one-child policy carried out in China for three decades, many kids are spoilt by their parents. The “little emperors” have no idea of sharing and giving and many of them even bee self-centered. If we have another child, the first one will learn something about responsibility, sharing and caring for others. 28. Of all the four persons,who is most likely to have a second child?A. Badmofaux. B. Bucu. C. Steven. D. William.29.We can learn from the passage that_.A.the one-child policy has a passive effect on childrens character in some wayB.raising a second child means parents should work twice as hard as beforeC.a second child can help protect the first child from life-threatening diseaseD.young Chinese couples cannot afford the expense to raise a second child30.Which of the following statements is True?A.Badmofaux plans to send her kids to study abroad.B.Bucu thinks more children means more trouble.C.Steven never considers having a second child.D.William suggests children should be self-centered.31.Where can we most probably find this passage?A. travel guide B. newspaper C. website D. magazineDWe are born, we live, we age and we die. This is the natural cycle of human existence. The world record holder for the longest human life is Jeanne Louise Calment of France, who lived to 122 years and 164 days. But what is the secret to a long life?Human beings are plex, and we live for a very long time, making studies of the process of ageing a serious challenge. Most of the research to date has therefore been done in animals. Two of the favorite species for these kinds of studies are Caenorhabditis elegans, a very tiny worm, and Mus musculus, the laboratory mouse. The worms generally live for just two or three weeks, while the mice have an upper lifespan of around three years, and both have a lot of genes that are quite similar to our own. Using these models, researchers have identified several possible candidates, including stem cells, calorie restriction(能量限制), and even some drugs, could hold off the ageing process.After years of careful research, there is now a wealth of knowledge just waiting to be tested in people. We spoke to Brian Kennedy, CEO of the Buck Institute for Research on Ageing. “ Were a nonprofit medical research institute thats focused on understanding ageing. We realized when the doors opened in 1999 that ageing was the biggest risk factor behind all of the diseases that we care about,” he explains. “I think the exciting thing that we have learned over the past decade is that its really possible to slow ageing in a mouse, or even in primates(灵长类动物). The challenge now is to take that knowledge and apply it to humans.”32. The studies of ageing were performed in two special animals because _.A. their genes are similar to mankind B. their genes are easy to be testedC. they have similar lifespans to mankind D. they have the same genes as mankind33. Which of the following can probably be used to prevent ageing process?A. Animal genes. B Mus musculus. C. Stem cells. D. Caenorhabditis elegans.34. What can we learn from the last paragraph?A. The study of ageing was started in 1999.B. Its possible to slow ageing in some animals. C. The study of ageing cant be tested in humans.D. The study shows that slowing ageing in humans is a reality.35. Whats Brian Kennedys attitude towards slow ageing?A. Critical. B. Negative. C. Indifferent. D. Positive 第二节 (共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。How to Work Faster and SmarterAs the old saying goes “work smarter,not harder”.What does that really mean? When there are deadlines approaching, how do you stay focused and get everything done efficiently? 36 ,but it is unclear where to start and when to take a break. These ways will help you to work faster and smarter.Dont multi-taskThere is a wrong opinion that doing many things at once is productive.Instead, it leaves you half-focused and constantly switching attention. 37 .Set a timer,and focus on that one task until it is pleted.Then,take a break and move on. 38 What someone else thinks is urgent can create a sense of peoples panic.If you know it is not important, do what is the most important first instead.You know best how to set your priorities and get your work done.So listen to yourself.Celebrate the little victoriesProjects take many steps until pletion. 39 .Rather than beating yourself up for what you havent done yet, taking time to pat yourself on the back can give you the confidence to see it through to the end. Stop saying “Im so busy” It is plaining, and plaining only makes you and everyone around you feel worse. 40 . This will encourage you to keep going.A. Take breaksB.Sometimes we know what to doC. Urgent doesnt necessarily mean importantD. You are on your way if you are taking actionE. You may have a sense that nothing gets plete this wayF.
