BMost students, when asked about their best graduation gift, would probably reply, “ A car”, or “Money for a house”. Cai Kaiyuan, 21, made a different choice. As a graduation gift to himself, he decided to work as a volunteer teacher in a distant village in Tibet.Cai, a student at Huan Railway Professional Technology College, at first planned to cycle from Sichuan to Tibet. It turned out cycling on a plateau(高原) was quite difficult. And it has kept changing his opinion on life. Cais hands even became painful while cycling up a 5008-meter-high mountain, where temperatures often dropped to 18 below zero. At night, the ice covered the road and he fell off his bike three times. Little oxygen made him feel sick and weak. “At the most serious moment, I felt that was on the line,” said Cai.However, he also gained something unexpected. At Ya an, a city in Sichuan, he met a group of tourists who are also university students. A girl called Wu Ling told him that she planned to work as a volunteer in a primary school in Tibet after her journey. He was impressed by the idea as she looked weak.It was not until he reached a family-run hotel in Shigatse that Cais spirits began to rise. The hotel managers two daughters enjoyed talking with him. The kids asked about his experiences on his trip, and showed him the beautiful local lakes. “They told me that they always liked to talk to guests, as they wanted to improve their Mandarin,” he said, “Their parents and many locals can only speak Tibetan.”Cai was moved by the girls story. Their situation is worse and the local people have little chance to learn Mandarin because the schools are short of teacher. “I want to do something to improve the situation for kids like them,” said Cai. His parents finally gave their agreement and his teachers also supported him.24. What is Cai Kaiyuans graduation gift? A. Cycling from Sichuan to Tibet. B.

A. tell us about an unusual graduation gift B. introduce a dangerous journey to us C. give advice on how to travel to Tibet D. encourage us to be a teacher in Tibet The Intelligent Transport team at Newcastle University have turned an electric car into a mobile laboratory named “Drive LAB” in order to understand the challenges faced by older drivers and to discover where the key stress points are.Research shows that giving up driving is one of the key reasons for a fall in health and wellbeing among older people, leading to them being more isolated(隔绝) and inactive.Led by Professor Phil Blythe, the Newcastle team are developing invehicle technologies for older drivers which they hope could help them to continue driving into later life.These include custom-made navigation(导航) tools, night vision systems and intelligent speed adaptations. Phil Blythe explains: “For many older people, particularly those living alone or in the country, driving is important for preserving their independence, giving them the freedom to get out and about without having to rely on others.“But we all have to accept that as we get older our reactions slow down and this often results in people avoiding any potentially challenging driving conditions and losing confidence in their driving skills. The result is that people stop driving before they really need to.”Dr Amy Guo, the leading researcher on the older driver study, explains: “The DriveLAB is helping us to understand what the key stress points and difficulties are for older drivers and how we might use technology to address these problems.“For example, most of us would expect older drivers always go slower than everyone else but surprisingly, we found that in 30mph zones they struggled to keep at a constant speed and so were more likely to break the speed limit and be at risk of getting fined. Were looking at the benefits of systems which control their speed as a way of preventing that.“We hope that our work will help with technological solutions to ensure that older drivers stay safer behind the wheel.”28. What is the purpose of the DriveLAB? A. To explore new means of transport. B. To design new types of cars. C. To teach people traffic rules. D. To find out older drivers problems.29. Why is driving important for older people according to Phil Blythe? A. It keeps them independent. B. It helps them save time. C. It builds up their strength. D. It cures their mental illnesses.30. What do researchers hope to do for older drivers? A. Improve their driving skills. B. Provide tips on repairing their cars. C. Develop driverassist technologies. D. Organize regular physical checkups.31. What is the best title for the text? A. A new model electric car B. A solution to traffic problems C. Driving services for elders D. Keeping older drivers on the road DWhile famous foreign architects are invited to lead the designs of landmark buildings in China such as the new CCTV tower and the National Center for the Performing Arts, many excellent Chinese architects are making great efforts to take the center stage.Their efforts have been proven fruitful. Wang Shu, a 49-year-old Chinese architect, won the xx Pritzker Architecture Prize which is often referred to as the Nobel Prize in architecture on February 28. He is the first Chinese citizen to win this award.Wang serves as head of the Architecture Department at the China Academy of Art (CAA). His office is located at the Xiangshan campus of the university in Hangzhou, Zhejiang Province. Many buildings on the campus are his original creations.The style of the campus is quite different from that of most Chinese universities. Many visitors were amazed by the plex architectural space and abundant building types. The curves(曲线) of the buildings perfectly match the rise and fall of hills, forming a unique view.Wang collected more than 7 million abandoned bricks of different ages. He asked the workers to use traditional techniques to make the bricks into walls, roofs and corridors. This creation attracted a lot of attention thanks to its mixture of modern and traditional Chinese elements(元素).Wangs works show a deep understanding of modern architecture and a good knowledge of traditions. Through such a balance, he had created a new type of Chinese architecture, said Tadao Ando, the winner of the 1995 Pritzker Prize.Wang believes traditions should not be sealed in glass boxes at museums. “That is only evidence that traditions once existed,” he said.“Many Chinese people have a misunderstanding of traditions. They think tradition means old things from the past. In fact, tradition also refers to the things that have been developing and that are still being created, ” he said.“Today, many Chinese people are learning Western styles and theories rather than focusing on Chinese traditions. Many people tend to talk about traditions without knowing what they really are, ” said Wang.The study of traditions should be bined with practice. Otherwise, the recreation of traditions would be artificial and empty, he said.32. Wangs winning of the prize means that Chinese architects are _. A. getting international recognition B. following the latest world trend C. working harder than ever before D. relying on foreign architects33. What impressed visitors to the CAA Xiangshan campus most? A. Its hilly environment. B. Its large size. C. Its unique style. D. Its diverse functions.34. What made Wangs architectural design a success? A. The bination of different shapes. B. The mixture of old and new. C. The use of popular techniques. D. The balance of East and West.35. What should we do about Chinese traditions according to Wang? A. Spread them to the world.B. Recreate them in practice. C. Teach them in universities. D. Preserve them at museums.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，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。选项中有两项为多余选项。Have you ever had a wonderful idea and thought it would make a great invention，but didnt know what to do next？ 36 .
