18、 Longe.Born in London and raised in Lagos, Nigeria, before returning to the UK when she was 15, Longes original outlet for her love of fashion was her blog Mirror Me. Having a passion for travel, Longe would pick up fabrics from the countries she visited and make clothes for herself, which she poste
19、d on social media. As her creations started to become a hit, the seed for her own brand was planted. “I wanted something I could put 100% of my creativity into, something that belonged to me and women like me,” explains the business owner, who recalls going into a high street store and the jeans not
20、 fitting her body very well. Longe says, “Ive always wanted to build that kind of community of women because, having grown up in Nigeria, I feel some women are made to feel they have to dim (使暗淡)their lightwe dont realize our power. Things are all centred around men and marriage. I want to build a c
21、ommunity that focuses on ourselves and our confidence.”With no formal fashion training, Longe set up Kai Collective four years ago with money borrowed from her mum. Longe is the first to admit she was rather “naive” when she started, giving an example of heading to Turkey with her mother to find a c
22、ompany to produce her designs. “Thats not the way to find producers,” she says. “Its much better to go to trade shows.”But whatever shes doing, its obviously working, with the brand featured in an Elle magazine cover shoot with the model Adwoa Aboah, as well as in Beyonces black-owned businesses lis

25、ducers at trade shows.7 What does the last paragraph want to tell us about Longe?A. She is on the right track.B. She will never give up.C. She has great ambitions.D. She is really hard-working.CFor centuries, humans have explored the Earths mountains, jungles and deserts. But despite covering over 7
26、0% of the Earths surface, the ocean is still relatively a mystery. In fact, we know more about the surface of Mars than we learn about the sea floor. However, getting a fuller picture of the ocean would enable us to navigate ships more safely, create more accurate climate models, build offshore wind
27、 farms and protect ocean species-all part of whats known as the “blue economy”. Underwater robotic vehicles equipped with sensors are helping gather that data more quickly and more cheaply than ever before. But many of these vehicles rely on batteries with a limited lifespan, and need to return to a
28、 boat or the shore to recharge, making it difficult for them to map remoter parts of the sea. A company called Seatrec is rising to the challenge, founded by oceanographer Yi Chao. While working at NASA. he developed a way to power ocean robots by making use of the naturally occurring temperature di
29、sparity of the sea. The power module can be installed on Seatrecs own floating device. As the float moves between colder and warmer parts of the ocean, the material inside the power module either melts or becomes solid, causing pressure that in turn creates energy and powers the robots generator. “T
30、he ocean robots can get charged by the sea, so they can extend their lifetime almost indefinitely,” Chao said. The power module can be placed in existing data-gathering robots. The robot dives a kilometer down to examine the chemistry and the shape of the seabed, using sonar (声呐)to create a map of t
31、he surrounding area. The robot returns to the surface to send back its findings by means of satellite. The technology can extend the reach of data-gathering devices, according to Jamie Phillips, director of the GEBCO Seabed 2030 Project. “One of the huge challenges we have is simply physics: unlike
32、mapping the Earths surface where we can use cameras or satellites. At sea, the light cant go through the water column. So were much limited to using sonar systems. Therefore, this technology can help deal with the problem well,” said Jamie.8. What does Paragraph 1 tell us about ocean exploration?A.
33、It is challenging but significant.B. It may do harm to ocean creatures.C. It can be as difficult as space exploration.D. It mainly focuses on mapping the seabed.9. Whats the problem with underwater robotic vehicles?A. They fail to gather data rapidly.B. They lack the stable power supply.C. They can
34、only map shallow waters.D. They work poorly with advanced sensors.10. What does the underlined word “disparity” in Paragraph 3 probably mean?A. Range.B. Control.C. Record.D. Difference.11. Which of the following can be the best title for the text?A. Aims of the Seabed 2030 ProjectB. New power module
35、s for ocean robotsC. The “blue economy” project of SeatrecD. The future of data-gathering ocean robotsDNonprofits usually try to give donors a simple message: Donate $50 now to help someone in poverty. But how does your donation get to the person in need? And how do these international nonprofits ac
36、tually operate? Nonprofits are usually headquartered in the USA or Europe. Many of them have “field offices” in the under-developed countries where they work. These offices often employ locals or nationals understanding the language and culture. Larger nonprofits sometimes create local affiliates (分
37、支). So when you donate to World Vision, for example, your gift may get passed on to World Vision Kenya, a semi-independent organization. Other international nonprofits partner with local organizations, which are smaller nonprofits started by people in poorer countries so they could help people in th
38、eir own communities. Heres how the partnership usually works: the international nonprofit asks for donations and then passes them on to the local partners. I work for an international nonprofit called West African Vocational Schools (WAVS) and we partner with a local organization called Ponte da Vid
39、a. International nonprofits know that many donors like to support children in poverty, so child sponsorship programs are a popular way to raise funds. But how those donations are actually used varies. World Vision, for example, uses child sponsorship funds to help everyone in a community. Usually, t
40、hese are communities where most people are living in poverty. World Vision has learned the hard way that giving special treatment to one child isnt a sustainable way to help people in poverty. Besides, it often has unintended consequences: children who dont get free stuff feel jealous (嫉妒的). WAVS ha
41、s a different model. We encourage our donors to join One Student, a community of monthly givers who help equip young people in West Africa with life-changing job skills. They usually give $40/month because thats how much it takes to cover the cost of training one student for one month. The donations
42、 are sent to Ponte da Vida, which uses the funds to operate WAVS vocational schools in West Africa. Still have questions? Feel free to email me.12. What can we learn about World Vision?A. It is a partly independent organization.B. It has branches in many countries.C. It partners with WAVS.D. It is b
43、ased in Kenya.13. What does World Vision think of treating poor kids specially?A. It causes negative effects.B. It is helpful and effective.C. It costs higher than expected.D. It should have an age restriction.14. What is the duty of One Student members?A. Operating vocational schools in West Africa
44、.B. Teaching children life-changing job skills.C. Contributing money to WAVS regularly.D. Seeking partnership with Ponte da Vida.15. What is the purpose of this text?A. To call for donations.B. To explain how nonprofits work.C. To show how kids in need receive donations.D. To recommend some nonprofi
45、ts to volunteers.第二节 七选五（共5小题，每小题2.5分，满分12.5分）阅读下面短文，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。The hardest thing to do is keep trying hard to achieve our goal when we see no signs of change. This is because our brains like observable evidence that our efforts are getting us closer to what we want and who we
46、 want to become. _16_ So how do we keep motivated and continue fighting when it seems to make no progress? Keep a detailed daily record. Write down any and all observable changes, even if you feel like they are not worthy to be written down. Those kinds of changes usually do not continue in our memo
47、ries, so we may not be able to notice all the changes that are actually happening. _17_Dont compare with anyone else. Celebrate what is happening in your journey rather than looking at someone elses path and thinking about what happened to them. _18_ You dont need to come in “first place”. Question
48、your expectations. Remember to often ask yourself: _19_ Unrealistic expectations increase frustration and disappointment and can be difficult for you to recover from when unmet. _20_ If you stare at the minute hand of a clock, the passing of an hour will seem like a lifetime. When you are working on a goal, it is important to diversify（使多样化）how you spend your time. Doing
