On a recent trip to Quebec, I slept over at the only ice hotel in North America.
Upon check-in, I was directed to a sweet woman nestling warmly next to the fireplace, who kindly reminded us that there would be no lockers or Internet access and that we’d better eat a heavy meal.
Following her advice, we ate everything on our plates at dinner even if we were full. But we couldn’t free us from our anxiety at that point. When dessert came, we started calling other hotels to see if they had any openings. When the eighth hotel we called wanted to charge us about $80 more than the online price, we just decided to go back to sleep on a bed of ice.
Once in the room, we began trying to figure out how to get comfortable in a room full of ice. Have you tried taking off your shoes in a room in which the floor is ice and not get your socks wet? It took me three yoga (瑜伽) positions to get this accomplished.
Rolling around to get all the way into the bag, I zipped myself up and said my good nights. And then I felt this sharp pain in my head. My hat had metal bands on it. The metal was getting cold in the... well… cold. I took my hat off and my head started to get cold. I sunk down further into my sleeping bag and thought to myself, “Well，at least if I die in here, it will be in my sleep.”
The next thing I knew, the hotel staff was giving us a real wake-up call (they stand outside your room and tell you to get up!).
The reward of having slept in a hotel made of ice? Now, no matter who is complaining and what the problem is, my response can be, “Did you sleep in an ice hotel? On a genuine bed of ice? No? I did!”
24. Why did the author start calling other hotels when dessert was served? A. He was not satisfied with the dessert. compare the prices.
C. He meant to figure out his lucky number. about sleeping on ice.
25. What does the underlined word “this” in Paragraph 4 refer to? A. Practicing yoga.
B. Keeping socks dry. D. Taking off the shoes.
D. He was worried
B. He wanted to
C. Rolling around the room.
26. Why did the author take off his hat before sleep? A. It made him suffer when worn. cause death.
C. It didn’t fit in the sleeping bag. for him to wear.
27. What can we infer about the author from the last paragraph? A. He regretted sleeping over at the ice hotel. reply to others’ complaints.
C. He took pride in this unique experience. genuine preference for ice beds. C
The word “renaissance” means “rebirth.” The Harlem Renaissance took place during the 1920s. It was a time when the African American artistic community grew and flourished, producing a ton of works in a short period of time. These works celebrated African American culture and spoke to their experiences as minorities — both the good parts and the bad parts.

He

After the Civil War, many African Americans left the South to escape unfair treatment and laws that were against them. Between 1910 and 1920, massive numbers of black Southerners moved from the rural south into the urban North and West in the Great Migration. The African American population of Chicago more than doubled during that time! And in New York, African Americans flocked to uptown Manhattan, settling in a neighborhood called Harlem. Forming a community within the big city let African Americans keep their cultural identity in a white-dominated society. It was a good thing, and a lot of important cultural issues were brought to light during the Harlem Renaissance. One of the most important figures of the time was the African American writer, W.E.B. Du Bois. In his book, The Souls of Black Folk, in 1903, Du Bois wrote that African Americans suffered from something called “double consciousness”. They had their own self-image while they saw themselves through the eyes of white Americans. And performers like Josephine Baker and Paul Robeson brought African American culture to all New Yorkers. The Renaissance was so influential that “Harlem” grew into something of a brand name.
African Americans were pushing boundaries across all aspects of society. Black businesses began to flourish, creating a growing middle class, like Madame C.J. Walker, who turned her cosmetics line into a million dollar empire. All together, the artists, and thinkers of this period helped mobilize the larger black population. Young African-Americans attended universities, which opened up new career paths and opportunities to attain advanced degrees. Perhaps most importantly, people — black and white --- began the push for racial integration, planting the seeds of what would eventually become the civil rights movement of the 1960s.
28. Why did many African Americans leave the South after the Civil War?
A. To escape slavery. agriculture.
B. To find jobs in
C. To gain citizenship. discrimination.
D. To avoid racial
29. How did W.E.B. Du Bois contribute to the Harlem Renaissance? A. He led to movement to return to Africa.
B. He produced tons of artistic works for African Americans. C. He wrote about the struggle for African American identity. D. He composed folk music based on African American theme. 30. The Harlem Renaissance got its name from . A. a writer
B. a book
C. a place
D. a brand
31. What allowed more African Americans to pursue careers in fields like medicine and law?
A. Access to higher education. businesses.
C. Shift from agriculture to industry. among all Africans. D
Are there any practical purposes for the number zero, or could we function just as well without it? Zero describes the absence of something, and while on scales such as those used for temperature, zero has a defined meaning, in general, it doesn’t seem to be as useful as many other numbers.
If you agree with the notion that the number zero is not particularly valuable, then you probably have not considered the most important use for this number, a use that you see every day and most likely take for granted. The number, or more precisely, the digit zero, makes our positional system
D. Push for unity
B. Spread of black
of numbers possible. Without zero, the numerals for three hundred two and for thirty-two would be indistinguishable from each other - and from many other numbers as well. The use of zero keeps the digits in their correct places, so that the place value of each digit is immediately apparent. You know at a glance that the 3 in 302 has a value of 3 hundreds and not 3 thousands or 3 tenths or some other quantity. The place of each digit shows its value, and zeros keep the digits in the correct places.
So, what is so remarkable? You may be thinking. Aren’t all number systems positional with some kind of place value system? The truth is that not all number systems are of this nature, and that most very early number systems were not positional. Roman numerals, which are still used today for a few applications, are positional but do not include a symbol for zero. Egyptian numerals included no zero and had no positional values. One early number system that did include zero was that employed by the Maya in Central America. For the most part, however, the use of a symbol for zero was a relatively late introduction in methods used to record quantities. 32. In a positional number system, the value of a zero . A. indicates a large number zero
C. changes depending on its position than zero
33. The writer shows that zero is needed . A. to compare numbers number system
C. because the Maya used it system positional
34. What does the underlined word “apparent” in paragraph 2 most probably
D. to make a number
B. in every type of
D. is always greater
B is sometimes equal to
mean?
A. Mistaken.
D. Forgotten.
B. Understood.
C. Written.
35. Why are examples of Roman and Egyptian numerals used in the third paragraph?
A. To explain why people have wrong ideas. B. To list the advantages of early number systems. C. To show that all number systems are not positional. D. To indicate why zero was a relatively late introduction. 第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）

All of us want to be better at something. If you want to better yourself so as to get ahead at work, here are some general rules you can follow.
Check your readiness
When working on a new skill or competency, you need to ask yourself two questions. First, is your goal reachable? 36 . For example, you may want to be a brain surgeon, but not have the eye-hand coordination (协调) required. Second, how much time and energy can you devote to the project? Many people mistakenly believe that hard work means a lack of ability. 37
Know how you learn best
Some learn best by looking at graphics or reading. Others would rather watch demonstrations or listen to things being explained. 38 . You can figure out your ideal learning style by looking back. Reflect on some of your past learning experiences, and make a list of good ones and another list of bad ones. 39
One of the quickest ways to learn something new, and to practice it is
to teach others how to do it. So share what you learn with your team, your manager, or your co-workers. You can force yourself to do it by agreeing to lead a formal training session a few months down the road. With objectives like those, your learning will be much more focused and practical.
Start small
Self-improvement can be stressful. 40 If you do, you’ll never do it. Instead, choose one or two skills to focus on at a time, and break that skill down into manageable goals. A. You can’t take on everything. B. Challenge to teach it to others.
C. Self-improvement is too hard to realize. D. Still others need a “hands-on” experience. E. There are certain limits to what you can learn.
F. Instead, recognize that learning a new skill takes talent. G. Without a reachable goal and devotion, you won’t go very far. 第三部分 英语知识运用（共两节，满分40分） 第一节 单项填空（共10题；每小题1分，满分10分）
