B

A clever technologist took steamboat inventions and turned them into the first commercial

steamboat service.

Although Robert Fulton did not invent the steamboat, as is commonly believed, he played an

important role in making steamboat travel a reality. He was born in Pennsylvania in 1765. As a

4

B. Children under age 8.

D. Teenagers with parents.

young man, he set out to make his name as a portrait painter. His career took him to Europe and into

the orbit of people with the power to support him politically and financially.

Fulton entered London society after he painted Benjamin Franklin’s portrait. While abroad,

Fulton left the arts for a career in shipbuilding. He was interested in the recently-invented steam

engine, and thought it could be used to power ships. Fulton’s vision was not original; many others

had entered the field, and the unfortunate inventor John Fitch had built a working steamship already.

But like Henry Ford, Fulton’s talent lay not in the invention but in the product’s application in the

marketplace.

Fulton didn’t focus entirely on the steamboat. In 1804, he tested the first submarine

successfully, which he had built for the British Royal Navy. His invention would make him a

celebrity upon his return to the United States two years later. Fulton’s partner Robert Livingston

obtained an exclusive license for steamboat services on New York’s Hudson River. It was time for

Fulton to deliver.

To build an efficient, reliable steamboat, Fulton used a special English steam engine. The

ship’s bottom was flat and its stern was square. The steamboat Clermont made its debut（首次亮相）on August 17, 1807, steaming up the river from New York to Albany, and it soon entered

commercial services. The hilly terrain of New York made water transport faster than land transport,

and Fulton’s boat — formerly known as the “North River Steamboat” — was a hit. Within five

years, Fulton would be running services on six major rivers plus the Chesapeake Bay, and bring in

great profits.

4. What can be inferred from Paragraph 3?

A. Henry Ford was as unfortunate as John Fitch.

B. Henry Ford was talented in product application.

C. Fulton left the arts as he couldn’t support himself.

D. Fulton was the first to create a working steamship.

5. When did Fulton become a celebrity in the United States?

A. In 1804. B. In 1806. C. In 1807. D. In 1812.

6. What is mentioned about Clermont?

A. It operated for five years.

B. It earned Fulton much money.

5

C. It had an American steam engine.

D. It was not accepted by people at first.

7. What’s the best title of the text?

A. Robert Fulton and his Steamboat

B. Robert Fulton: A Great Inventor

C. Steamboats Changing Water Transport

D. The History of Commercial Steamboats

二、七选五

French Universities to Offer More Classes in English

France aims to bring more foreign students to its universities by offering more classes taught in

English.

France is home to famous universities like the Sorbonne in Paris and several leading business

schools. 1 But it ranks (排名) behind the US, Britain and Australia in the total number of

foreign students who study there.

2 The country has seen increased competition from Germany, Russia, Canada and China.

Under the new plan, France will ease student visa requirements. 3 Starting next March,

foreigners who have earned a French master’s degree will be able to receive a residence visa (居留签证). The change is meant to help recent graduates look for work or set up a business in France.

4 Currently, students in France — including foreign students — pay (about) 170 euros a

year for a bachelor’s degree and 243 euros a year for a master’s degree. Officials said the low cost

of education in France leads students from other countries to believe that the quality of a French

education is lower than what other countries offer. Beginning in September 2019, non-European

students will pay 2,770 euros a year for a bachelor’s degree and 3,770 euros for graduate degrees.

5 France will use the extra money to build better education facilities and increase the number

of scholarships for foreign students.

A. Student visa applications also will be available online.

B. That’s why we need to welcome more foreign students.

C. The country is a popular choice among non-English-speaking students.

D. That is still much less costly than some other European countries, however.

6

E. Increasing the number of foreigners studying in the country would help build French influence

overseas.

F. France also plans to increase the costs for students who come from outside the European

Economic Area.

G. Between 2011 and 2016，the number of foreign students studying at French universities fell by

8.5 percent.

C

Journalists are the major group of people who make their living from writing. Many young

people who see themselves as future novelists choose journalism as a way of earning a living while

developing their writing skills. Although writing for newspapers and writing for books require

different qualities, the aspiration（志向）to be a great writer is not one to be discouraged in a

would-be journalist.

Most people want their work to be recognized by others. This helps to give it value. Some

people also want themselves to be recognized, so that they have status（地位）in the eyes of society.

It is not a bad motive to wish to be famous, but this must never become your main reason for being

a journalist. You will not be a good journalist if you care more for impressing your audience than

for serving their needs.

Knowing the power of the printed or spoken word or image, some people enter journalism for

the power it will give them to influence people. There is a strong belief that journalists control the

mass media but the best journalists recognize their role as servants of the people. There is a

difference between the desire to influence events for your own sake, and the desire to do it for other

people. You should never use journalism for selfish ends, but you can use it to improve the lives of

other people.

Curiosity is a natural part of most people’s characters and an important ingredient for any

journalist. Lots of young men and women enter the profession with the desire to know more about

the world without needing to specialize in limited fields of study. Most journalists tend to know a

little bit about a lot of things, rather than a lot about one subject. Knowledge has many uses. It can

7

simply help to make you a fuller and more interesting person. It can also give you power over

people, especially people who do not have that particular knowledge. Always bear in mind that

power can be used in a positive way to improve people’s lives.

1. What can we know from the first paragraph?

A. Journalists are most likely to become great writers.

B. Writing for newspapers is similar to writing for novels.

C. Most of the journalists make a living by writing books.

D. Journalism can be used as a means to improve writing.

2. Why do some people want themselves to be recognized?

A. To gain high position.

C. To earn much wealth.

B. To get great power.

D. To learn rich knowledge.

3. What is most necessary for journalists according to Paragraph 4?

A. Being specialized in a certain field.

B. Having a wide range of knowledge.

C. Being good at making friends with others.

D. Being able to speak a foreign language well.

4. What does the text mainly talk about?

A. The development of journalism.

B. The challenges journalists face now.

C. How to become a qualified journalist.

D. Why people choose a career in journalism.

A new report connects eating eggs to an increased risk of heart disease. The results follow

several earlier studies that found eating eggs was generally healthy. The study collects data from six

other earlier studies. It shows a 6 percent increased risk of heart disease when the number of eggs a

person ate each day increased by half an egg.

Norrina Allen, an associate professor at Northwestern University said that, in the United States,

eggs are generally one of the top sources of cholesterol（胆固醇）in a person’s daily food. People

with higher levels of cholesterol in their food are at increased risk of the development of heart

8

disease later in life. However, Allen added that she would not say that eggs are completely

unhealthy. “I’m not saying that people should take them completely out of their food,” she said.

“I’m just suggesting that people eat them in a proper amount.”

Some experts believe the new study does not prove that eggs are causing heart disease.

“Cholesterol’s role in the development of heart disease has been discussed for more than 30 years,”

said Bruemmer, an associate professor of medicine at the University of Pittsburgh Medical Center.

“This study does have clear shortcomings, including self-reporting at a single time point,” he added.

Bruemmer said, “Eggs in moderation（适度）are probably acceptable from a nutritional

standpoint.” “Moderation,” he added, “is less than one egg a day, including eggs in foods such as

bread”.

Holly Andersen, a doctor at the NewYork-Presbyterian/Weill Cornell Medical Center, agrees

that the study has “real shortcomings”. One problem Andersen has with the study is that a lot of the

egg-eating people in the study also appeared to be eating much meat and processed meat. “If you’re

taking a lot of processed meat, it doesn’t matter how many eggs you’re eating,” Andersen said.

Also, Andersen said, “the study can only show there is a relation between eggs eating and heart

disease. But it cannot prove eggs are the cause of the disease. It may just be that people eating a lot

of eggs are also taking a lot of bacon.”

5. What does Norrina Allen agree with?

A. Eggs are completely unhealthy.

B. Eggs contain the most cholesterol.

C. Eggs should be eaten in a right amount.

D. Eggs have no connection with heart disease.

6. What is Bruemmer’s attitude towards the study?

A. Interested. B. Doubtful. C. Concerned. D. Hopeful.

7. What can we learn from Holly Andersen’s words?

A. Eggs and meat cannot be eaten together.

B. Processed meat may cause heart disease.

C. Processed meat should be avoided.

D. The study is supported by evidence.

8. What’s the best title of the text?

9

A. Do eggs cause heart disease?

B. Are eggs the top source of cholesterol?

C. What’s the proper amount of eggs eaten?

D. Is the cholesterol to blame for heart disease?

二、完形填空

No matter what life throws our way, having a positive attitude makes room for the future. Let’s

read Hervey Bay teenager Mark Farrell’s 1 story. At the age of 14, he took a dive into a

swimming pool, which would 2 his life forever.

“I jumped into the pool and broke my 3 ,” he says. “It’s a very unusual story because I

jumped into the deep end, not the shallow end where most spinal (脊柱的) injuries 4 .”

Mark has been in a wheelchair ever since and now, at 27, is very calm about any 5 life

might throw at him. In fact, he finds it 6 to name any challenge. “I just live my life and

7 it day by day,” he says.

For the past few years, Mark has worked with the Spinal Education Awareness Team (SEAT)

whose aim is to 8 students to prevent spinal injuries, telling his 9 to young people in the

Hervey Bay region. “If I can 10 one kid’s life, it makes my 11 worthwhile,” he says.

Mark stresses the importance of checking the 12 of water before diving in and being

more 13 in general. He says that if his talks can prevent one spinal injury in a young person,

he’s 14 . Mark’s contribution to preventing spinal injuries was 15 in 2017, when he was

二、读后续写

阅读下面短文，根据所给情节进行续写，使之构成一个完整的故事。

A. J. shut the door of the truck. “Ready,” he said. His dad started the truck. It was six o’clock

and freezing, but the strong morning sun promised warmer temperatures. It had been colder than

11

normal over the past week, and the ground and ponds were already frozen.

“After we check on the cows,” Dad said, “you should have some time to practice roping cattle.”

A. J. wanted to enter the rodeos (牛仔竞技表演) in which cowboys rode wild horses, and caught

cattle with ropes.

The best professionals could break from the gate on horseback, rope a calf (小牛), and hog-tie

the calf in less than ten seconds. So far, A.J. needed nearly a minute and a half, but he’d only been

at it for a few months.

The truck bounced down the dirt road. In a few minutes, they passed through the field gate.

A. J. pulled a pair of telescopes. The black spots of cows on the far hill took shape. The cows

gathered around the pond. A. J. guessed they wanted the water locked under the ice. Suddenly, they

heard extremely frightened shouts from one cow. Dad stopped the truck, and he and A. J. stared at

the frozen pond anxiously.

A calf lay on the ice in the middle of the pond. A cow, no doubt the calf’s mother, stood

onshore, shouting desperately. The calf struggled to get up but slipped and fell each time.

The morning sun seemed warmer. Too warmer. A. J. knew that the situation was urgent. If the

calf lay there too long, she could fall through the ice and drown. Dad eased the truck down the hill

and stopped at the edge of the pond. “No telling how long she’s been there,” he said. “The ice could

be about to melt. I don’t think we can risk it.” Dad shook his head, “It’s just not safe.”

注意：

1. 所续写短文的词数应为150左右；

【外刊精读】

主题语境：人与自我——感恩改变生活

How gratitude can change your life

Gratitude means thankfulness, counting your blessings, noticing simple pleasures, and

acknowledging everything that you receive. It means learning to live your life as if everything were

a miracle and being aware on a continuous basis of how much you’ve been given.

Gratitude shifts your focus from what your life lacks to the abundance that is already present.

In addition, behavioral and psychological research has shown the surprising life improvements that

can stem from the practice of gratitude. Giving thanks makes people happier and more resilient, it

strengthens relationships, it improves health, and it reduces stress.

Two psychologists, Michael McCollough of Southern Methodist University in Dallas, Texas,

and Robert Emmons of the University of California at Davis, wrote an article about an experiment

they conducted on gratitude and its impact on well-being. The study split several hundred people

into three different groups and all of the participants were asked to keep daily diaries. The first

group kept a diary of the events that occurred during the day without being told specifically to write

about either good or bad things; the second group was told to record their unpleasant experiences;

and the last group was instructed to make a daily list of things for which they were grateful.

The results of the study indicated that daily gratitude exercises resulted in higher reported

levels of alertness, enthusiasm, determination, optimism, and energy. In addition, those in the

gratitude group experienced less depression and stress, were more likely to help others, exercised

more regularly, and made greater progress toward achieving personal goals.

Dr. Emmons — who has been studying gratitude for almost ten years and is considered by

many to be the world’s leading authority on gratitude — is author of the book, “Thanks!:How the

13

New Science of Gratitude Can Make You Happier”. The information in this book is based on

research involving thousands of people conducted by a number of different researchers around the

world.

One of the things these studies show is that practicing gratitude can increase happiness levels

by around 25%. In addition, Dr. Emmons’ research shows that those who practice gratitude tend to

be more creative, bounce back more quickly from adversity, have a stronger immune system, and

have stronger social relationships than those who don’t practice gratitude.

Once you become oriented toward looking for things to be grateful for, you will find that you

begin to appreciate simple pleasures and things that you previously took for granted. Gratitude

should not be just a reaction to getting what you want, but an all-the-time gratitude, the kind where

you notice the little things and where you constantly look for the good even in unpleasant situations.

Words:

1. stem v. 阻止；封堵；遏止

2. resilient adj. 可迅速恢复的

3. adversity n. 困境；逆境

4. orient v. 朝向；确定方向；使适应

5. studying 考查非谓语动词。discourage sb. from doing sth. 意为“打消某人做某事的念头”，是常用搭配。

6. to marry 考查非谓语动词。此处是expect sb. to do sth.的被动形式，故填to marry.

7. surprising 考查词形转换。分析句子结构可知，空处作宾补，应填形容词，结合语境可知，此处表示“令人吃惊的”，故填surprising。

8. has increased 考查时态和主谓一致。根据in recent years可知空处应用现在完成时。the

number of ... 意为“……的数量”，作主语时后面的谓语动词用单数形式。

17

9. an 考查冠词。此处为不确指；又因early 的发音是以元音音素开头，故填an。

Day Four

【写作实战】

一、应用文

Dear Sir/Madam,

I’m writing to talk about the problem of food safety nowadays. To reduce costs and make more

profits, some food companies don’t take necessary safety measures to guarantee the food quality. As

a result, more and more low-quality food flows into the market, doing great harm to consumers’

health.

In my opinion, food is essential to human beings. We could not live without safe food. If no

notice is taken of food safety, the health of the whole nation will suffer. So I call on the whole

society to take action and put an end to the low-quality food. Only in this way can we live a

healthier life.

Yours truly,

Li Hua

二、读后续写

Paragraph 1:

A. J. watched the calf, whose eyes were wide with fright. Though frightened, the calf gathered

all her strength to get up but slipped over and over again. Seeing the danger, the mother cow let out

shouts with horror and cast helpless glances at A. J. and his dad as if begging them for help. An

atmosphere of sadness blanketing the whole world, every nerve in A. J.’s body screamed at him that

he must save the poor calf. All of a sudden, an idea came into his mind like a flash.

Paragraph 2:

It would be just like rodeo practice, A. J. thought, trying to stay calm. He rushed to the truck to

grab the rope quickly, aimed it at the calf and let it go. Luckily, he made it at the first attempt! With

palms sweating, he and his dad struggled to pull the calf out of the frozen pond. After what seemed

like a century, they managed to save the calf. Seeing the calf running to her mother happily, A. J.

felt comforted and glad that what he had learned helped save a life.
