Meet Boji. He is often seen waiting on train platforms and riding buses around town. He takes commuting so seriously that he has become an international celebrity and a VIP for all commuters in Istanbul. Actually, Boji is a much-loved stray animal with large brown eyes and golden fur.
Boji was first spotted riding the subway in August. He caught people’s attention because he seemed to understand how to use the transport system. “We noticed a dog using our subways and trains. He let passengers get off before jumping onto the train and knew where to get out,” Aylin Erol from Metro Istanbul said.
Vets took Boji in for a check up, placing a GPS tracker on him so they could record his journeys. They soon discovered that this traveling dog covers some 30 kilometers onpublic transport a day, using at least 29 subway stations. So he was nicknamed Boji, theTurkish word for “subway car”.
Stray animals are a regular part of life in Istanbul. As a large city in the world, Istanbul is also home to 150,000 stray dogs and cats. As locals have been known to feed and leave water for these street animals for centuries, stray animals are a regular part of life for the residents of Istanbul.
Yet a traveling dog is new even for Istanbul residents. “You take the train and, suddenly, you see Boji. You just smile and catch the moment. Boji reminds us that we can still enjoy Istanbul as we rush about. This sweet dog sits upright on trains watching the world go by. As he travels, he brings smiles and warmth to tired passengers,” Erol told Reuters.
4. Why did Boji draw people's attention
A. He had an attractive appearance. B. He could understand commuters’ orders.
C. He had experiences of living on streets. D. He could ride public transportation by himself.
5. For what purpose did vets place a GPS tracker on Boji
A. To monitor his health. B. To record the route he takes.
C. To discover his favorite destination. D. To help him find the way home.
6. What can we learn about Istanbul
A. It is the largest city in the world. B. Its residents live a rather poor life.
C. Its location is suitable for raising animals. D. It has a tradition of caring for stray animals.
7. How do passengers probably feel when seeing Boji
A. Pitiful. B. Scared. C. Inspired. D. Annoyed.
C
Coffee is the morning go-to drink. Globally, over 10 billion kilograms of coffee is produced every year and the demand is continuously growing. However, it is unlikely to produce more coffee if climate change continues and reduces the amount of land available. That’s why it’s necessary to find alternative methods of producing coffee.
Now, Finland is leading the way to grow its own coffee in the lab without using the beans. The coffee is being produced through cellular agriculture, an innovation that could make growing coffee more sustainable, according to Finland’s VTT Technical Research Center.
The man made coffee is made using cells from real coffee plants. Research team leader Heiko Rischer said, “Initially a cell culture is started from a plant part (e.g. a leaf). The formed cells are reproduced on a specific nutrient medium. Ultimately, the cells are moved to a bioreactor from which the biomass (生物质) is then harvested. The cells are dried and roasted and then coffee can be tasted.” Added environmental benefits of this kind of coffee is that it will require far less water, will have a smaller transportation footprint, and there will be no pesticides used in the production process.
At this point the coffee being produced is experimental food and have to receive approval from the FDA and European certification. The product is also being refined and needs time to come into commercial production. Although lab-grown meat and dairy is starting to be commercially available, the question is: will people accept a cell-grown replacement to conventional coffee Only time will tell if the world is ready for a cup of lab-grown coffee.
8. What is the major challenge to produce more coffee
A. Climate change. B. Outdated technology.
C. Decreased demand. D. Soil pollution.
9. Which process happens on the specific nutrient medium
A Removing cells. B. Reproducing cells.
C. Harvesting cells. D. Drying cells.
10. What does the underlined word “refined” mean in paragraph 4
A. Sold. B. Consumed. C. Improved. D. Wrapped,
11. Which of the following is a suitable title for the text
A. Let Lab-grown Coffee Fill Your Cup
B. Enjoy First-class Life with More Coffee
C. Say Goodbye to Old- fashioned Agriculture
D. Save Finland by Being Environment friendly
D
Creativity is usually associated with open spaces and freedom, However, sometimes it can be beneficial, even essential, to build walls, make rules and impose (强加) limitations on ourselves in order to get our creativity flowing.
The fact is that unlimited options are very difficult to deal with — they keep us staring at the “blank page”. Our minds need some guidance; if there are no rules or restrictions in place, it’s hard to begin the creative process and even more difficult to remain focused or purposeful.
Most creative careers have limitations imposed upon them. If you' re an engineer working on a new product, you have instructions, including purpose, target market, materials and size. If you're a writer, you may have length or style restrictions to deal with. There is hardly a real life example of creation that exists without some kind of rules.
Famous for the wildly successful daily art project a skull a day for a year, Noah Scalin is an artist who created unique pieces of art using drawing, sculpture, painting — any other media he had around — to create representation of a human head. Each day he challenged himself to create a “head” that had to be unique during that 24-hour period. He couldn’t sit back waiting for inspiration to strike: he was forced to constantly seek out new materials and ideas to fill up his “blank page”.
Acts of creation without limitation exist in reality only in the most extreme cases. Inventors don’t generally wake up one day and say, “I’m going to invent something today.” They look around at what there is and what needs improving, and work with the resources available. While anyone can come up with random, fantastic ideas without direction or purpose, imposing limitations is a more effective way of encouraging creativity, and can inspire true innovation.
12. In what aspect do unlimited options influence people’s thinking
A. Strengthening focus. B. Setting unrealistic goals.
C. Slowing down creative process. D. Generating new thinking patterns.
13. Why does the author mention “engineer” and “writer” in paragraph 3
A. To make a comment. B. To introduce a topic.
C. To make a comparison. D. To support an opinion.
14. What's Noah Scalin’s trick to success
A. Carrying out a fixed task daily. B. Inventing new painting materials.
C. Forcing himself to sit still for hours. D. Creating as many works as possible.
15. What message does the author intend to convey in the text
A. The name of joy is creativity. B. No limitation, no innovation.
C. Rules are meant to be broken. D. Success comes with a free mind.

Kareem sighed as he counted his money again. He was still short of fifty dollars to buy the latest Speedster X bike. In order to save his pocket money to replace his old bike, he had been packing sandwiches to school the last three months.
“How can I get that fifty dollars ” he thought to himself. His mind was wondering when Mother’s voice disturbed his thoughts. “Kareem, I just ran into Aunty Kim, our neighbour who just moved in next door. Her son, Shawn, will cycle to school next week. Could you show him the shortcut to school later It’s Saturday anyway!” Hearing this, Kareem had no option but to obey it, He knew Mother had probably already volunteered his service to Aunty Kim. “Oh, here’s a mail from your Grandma. Open it!” added Mother.
Kareem’s grandmother lived abroad and she would send him photos and cards. He opened the envelope and pulled out a greeting card. Incredibly, a fifty dollar note slipped out as well! Kareem was wild with joy. Waving the note in the air, he shouted happily, “Enough money for my bike!”
At 2 p. m. Kareem met Shawn as arranged by their mothers. The sooner he finished this task, the sooner he could go to the bike shop. While the boys were cycling, a squirrel (松鼠) appeared behind a parked car and dashed across the road so suddenly that the boys knocked into each other and fell down heavily. Kareem said regretfully, “I forgot to warn you about the squirrel population here.” As Kareem was lifting up his broken bike, Shawn cried anxiously, “Oh, my poor bike! It’s completely broken.”
Watching Shawn carrying the disabled bike home in silence, Kareem hurried to the bike shop for his dream bike. The sign “Half Price for Old Models” in the shop attracted his eyes.
注意：
1．续写词数应为150左右；
2．请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
“A Speedster X bike or two old models ” Kareem hesitated.
________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
“Hi!” Kareem appeared at Shawn’s door cheerfully and asked, “Want to ride together ”

The man made coffee is made using cells from real coffee plants. Research team leader Heiko Rischer said, “Initially a cell culture is started from a plant part (e.g. a leaf). The formed cells are reproduced on a specific nutrient medium. Ultimately, the cells are moved to a bioreactor from which the biomass (生物质) is then harvested. The cells are dried and roasted and then coffee can be tasted.” Added environmental benefits of this kind of coffee is that it will require far less water, will have a smaller transportation footprint, and there will be no pesticides used in the production process.
At this point the coffee being produced is experimental food and have to receive approval from the FDA and European certification. The product is also being refined and needs time to come into commercial production. Although lab-grown meat and dairy is starting to be commercially available, the question is: will people accept a cell-grown replacement to conventional coffee Only time will tell if the world is ready for a cup of lab-grown coffee.
8. What is the major challenge to produce more coffee
A. Climate change. B. Outdated technology.
C. Decreased demand. D. Soil pollution.
9. Which process happens on the specific nutrient medium
A Removing cells. B. Reproducing cells.

10. What does the underlined word “refined” mean in paragraph 4

11. Which of the following is a suitable title for the text

B. Enjoy First-class Life with More Coffee
C. Say Goodbye to Old- fashioned Agriculture
D. Save Finland by Being Environment friendly
【答案】8. A 9. B 10. C 11. A

Creativity is usually associated with open spaces and freedom, However, sometimes it can be beneficial, even essential, to build walls, make rules and impose (强加) limitations on ourselves in order to get our creativity flowing.
The fact is that unlimited options are very difficult to deal with — they keep us staring at the “blank page”. Our minds need some guidance; if there are no rules or restrictions in place, it’s hard to begin the creative process and even more difficult to remain focused or purposeful.
Most creative careers have limitations imposed upon them. If you' re an engineer working on a new product, you have instructions, including purpose, target market, materials and size. If you're a writer, you may have length or style restrictions to deal with. There is hardly a real life example of creation that exists without some kind of rules.
Famous for the wildly successful daily art project a skull a day for a year, Noah Scalin is an artist who created unique pieces of art using drawing, sculpture, painting — any other media he had around — to create representation of a human head. Each day he challenged himself to create a “head” that had to be unique during that 24-hour period. He couldn’t sit back waiting for inspiration to strike: he was forced to constantly seek out new materials and ideas to fill up his “blank page”.
Acts of creation without limitation exist in reality only in the most extreme cases. Inventors don’t generally wake up one day and say, “I’m going to invent something today.” They look around at what there is and what needs improving, and work with the resources available. While anyone can come up with random, fantastic ideas without direction or purpose, imposing limitations is a more effective way of encouraging creativity, and can inspire true innovation.
12. In what aspect do unlimited options influence people’s thinking
A. Strengthening focus. B. Setting unrealistic goals.
C. Slowing down creative process. D. Generating new thinking patterns.
13. Why does the author mention “engineer” and “writer” in paragraph 3
A. To make a comment. B. To introduce a topic.
C. To make a comparison. D. To support an opinion.
14. What's Noah Scalin’s trick to success
A. Carrying out a fixed task daily. B. Inventing new painting materials.
C. Forcing himself to sit still for hours. D. Creating as many works as possible.
15. What message does the author intend to convey in the text
A. The name of joy is creativity. B. No limitation, no innovation.
C. Rules are meant to be broken. D. Success comes with a free mind.
【答案】12. C 13. D 14. A 15. B

52. 阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。
Kareem sighed as he counted his money again. He was still short of fifty dollars to buy the latest Speedster X bike. In order to save his pocket money to replace his old bike, he had been packing sandwiches to school the last three months.
“How can I get that fifty dollars ” he thought to himself. His mind was wondering when Mother’s voice disturbed his thoughts. “Kareem, I just ran into Aunty Kim, our neighbour who just moved in next door. Her son, Shawn, will cycle to school next week. Could you show him the shortcut to school later It’s Saturday anyway!” Hearing this, Kareem had no option but to obey it, He knew Mother had probably already volunteered his service to Aunty Kim. “Oh, here’s a mail from your Grandma. Open it!” added Mother.
Kareem’s grandmother lived abroad and she would send him photos and cards. He opened the envelope and pulled out a greeting card. Incredibly, a fifty dollar note slipped out as well! Kareem was wild with joy. Waving the note in the air, he shouted happily, “Enough money for my bike!”
At 2 p. m. Kareem met Shawn as arranged by their mothers. The sooner he finished this task, the sooner he could go to the bike shop. While the boys were cycling, a squirrel (松鼠) appeared behind a parked car and dashed across the road so suddenly that the boys knocked into each other and fell down heavily. Kareem said regretfully, “I forgot to warn you about the squirrel population here.” As Kareem was lifting up his broken bike, Shawn cried anxiously, “Oh, my poor bike! It’s completely broken.”
Watching Shawn carrying the disabled bike home in silence, Kareem hurried to the bike shop for his dream bike. The sign “Half Price for Old Models” in the shop attracted his eyes.
注意：
1．续写词数应为150左右；
2．请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
“A Speedster X bike or two old models ” Kareem hesitated.

【答案】参考范文
“A Speedster X bike or two old models ” Kareem hesitated. He thought to himself, “Whatever happened was not my fault. I’m buying Speedster X anyway.” However, as the image of Shawn and his disabled bike flashed before him repeatedly, he felt a shiver running down his body. An inner voice insisted that he should reach out a helping hand. Just at that moment, his initial guilt gave way to a sense of responsibility. After a quick mental calculation, he decided to buy two old models.
“Hi!” Kareem appeared at Shawn’s door cheerfully and asked, “Want to ride together ” Shawn got annoyed at the silly question. He moved his lips as if to say something but before he could say anything, Kareem took a stride to the side, revealing two shiny identical bikes magically. “What... How come No, it couldn’t be...”, Shawn beamed with excitement, tears clouding his eyes. Mother, who had witnessed the scene from the window, walked up to Kareem and patted his shoulder gently and playfully, “Son! I’m really proud of you.”
