Text 1
France, which prides itself as the global innovator of fashion, has decided its fashion industry has lost an absolute right to define physical beauty for woman. Its lawmakers gave preliminary approval last week to a law that would make it a crime to employ ultra-thin models on runways.
The parliament also agreed to ban websites that" incite excessive thinness" by promoting extreme dieting.
Such measures have a couple of uplifting motives. They suggest beauty should not be defined by looks that end up with impinging on health. That's a start. And the ban on ultra-thin models seems to go beyond protecting models from starring themselves to health -as some have done. It tells the fashion industry that it move take responsibility for the signal it sends women, especially teenage girls, about the social tape -measure they must use to determine their individual worth.
The bans, if fully enforced ,would suggest to woman (and many men )that they should not let others be orbiters of their beauty perhaps faintly, they hint that people should look to intangible qualities like character and intellect rather than dieting their way to sine zero or wasp-waist physiques .
The French measures, however, rely too much on severe punishment to change a culture that still regards beauty as skin-deep-and bone-showing. Under the law, using a fashion model that does not meet a government-defined index of body mess could result in a $85,000 fine and six months in prison.
The fashion industry knows it has an inherent problem in focusing on material adornment and idealized body types. In Denmark, the United States, and a few other countries, it is trying to set voluntary standard for models and fashion images there rely more on pear pressure for enforcement.
In contrast to France's actions, Denmark's fashion industry agreed last month on rules and sanctions regarding age, health, and other characteristics of models newly revised Danish Fashion Ethical charter clearly states, we are aware of and take responsibility for the impact the fashion industry has on body ideals, especially on young people. The charter's main toll of enforcement is to deny access for designers and modeling agencies to Copenhagen. Fashion week, which is men by the Danish Fashion Institute in general it relies on a name-and -shame method of compliance.
Relying on ethical persuasion rather than law to address the misuse of body ideals may be the best step. Even better would be to help elevate notions of beauty beyond the material standards of a particular industry.
21. According to the first paragraph, what would happen in France?
[A] Physical beauty would be redefined
[B] New runways would be constructed
[C] Websites about dieting would thrive
[D] The fashion industry would decline
【答案】A
【解析】推斷題。根據題幹first paragraph定位第一段，其中第一句France ,which prides itself as the global innovator of fashion, has decided its fashion industry has lost an absolute right to define physical beauty for woman.以作為全球時尚創新者為榮的法國承認已經失去定義女性形體美的絕對權利，說明法國以前制定的形體美的標準已不再適用，現在需要做出改變，故A選項為正確答案。
22. The phrase "impinging on"(Line2 Para2) is closest in meaning to
[A] heightening the value of
[B] indicating the state of
[C] losing faith in
[D] doing harm to
【答案】D
【解析】詞義題。根據題幹關鍵詞定位到第二段的第二句"They suggest beauty should not be defined by looks that end up with impinging on health."(他們認為美女不應該以…健康的外表來界定)。該句承接本段第一句"Such measures have a couple of uplifting motives."其中，Such measures指代的正是第一段中闡述的"僱傭過瘦(excessive thinness)的模特會犯罪的法律規定"，且excessive一詞表明瞭情感色彩是貶義的。因此選[D] doing harm to。
23. Which of the following is true of the fashion industry
[A] The French measures have already failed
[B] New standards are being set in Denmark
[C] Models are no longer under peer pressure
[D] Its inherent problems are getting worse
【答案】B
【解析】細節題。根據題幹關鍵詞定位在原文第五段。由該段第二句可知，丹麥等國正在制定模特的標準。與選項[B]丹麥正在制定新的標準相符合，故正確。
24. A designer is most likely to be rejected by CFW for
[A] setting perfect physical conditions
[B] caring too much about models' character
[C] showing little concern for health factors
[D] pursuing a high age threshold for models
【答案】C
【解析】推理題。題幹問的是"設計師似乎被CFW拒絕的原因"。根據題幹關鍵詞，迴文定位到倒數第二段，其中指出"…enforcement is to deny access for designers…"，意思是"法案拒絕設計師進入CFW，它是由丹麥時裝學院創辦的。"，再根據該段前兩句可知，麥時裝學院不再只關注身材，也關注健康。而設計師一般都是以瘦為美，而忽視健康。綜上所述，設計師被拒絕的原因是不考慮健康因素，故選[C] showing little concern for health factors。
25. Which of the following maybe the best title of the text?
[A] A challenge to the Fashion Industry's Body Ideals
[B] A Dilemma for the starving models in France
[C] Just Another Round of struggle for beauty
[D] The Great Threats to the Fashion Industry
【答案】A
【解析】主旨題。首段指出法律要求時尚界不能用過瘦的模特，接下來的段落重點說明時尚界的模特同時還需考慮年紀，健康以及其他方面的因素等。因此這篇文章的中心是圍繞對時尚界理想體型觀點的挑戰，故[A] A challenge to the Fashion Industry's Body Ideals正確。
Text 2
For the first time in the history more people live in towns than in the country. In Britain this has had a curious result. While polls show Britons rate "the countryside" alongside the royal family. Shakespeare and the National Health Service (NHS) as what make them proudest of their country, this has limited political support.
A century ago Octavia Hill launched the National Trust not to rescue stylish houses but to save "the beauty of natural places for everyone forever". It was specifically to provide city dwellers with spaces for leisure where they could experience "a refreshing air". Hill's pressure later led to the creation of national parks and green belts. They don't make countryside any more, and every year concrete consumes more of it needs constant guardianship.
At the next election none of the big parties seem likely to endorse this sentiment. The Conservatives' planning reform explicitly gives rural development priority over conservation,
even authorizing "off-plan" building where local people might object. The concept of sustainable development has been defined as profitable. Labour likewise wants to discontinue local planning where councils oppose development. The Liberal Democrats are silent only u sensing its chance, has sides with those pleading for a more considered approach to using green land. Its campaign to protect Rural England struck terror into many local conservative parties.
The sensible place to build new houses factories and offices is where people are in cities and towns where infrastructure is in place. The London agents Stirling Ackroyed recently identified enough sites for half of million houses in the Landon area alone with no intrusion on green belts. What is true of London is even truer of the provinces. The idea that "housing crisis" equals "concreted meadows" is pure lobby talk. The issue is not the need for more houses but, as always, where to put them under lobby pressure, George Osborne favours rural new-build against urban renovation and renewal. He favours out-of-town shopping sites against high streets. This is not a free market but a biased one. Rural towns and villages have grown and will always grow. They do so best where building sticks to their edges and respects their character. We do not ruin urban conservation areas. Why ruin rural ones?
Development should be planned, not let trip, After the Netherlands, Britain is Europe's most crowed country. Half a century of town and country planning has enable it to retain an enviable rural coherence, while still permitting low-density urban living. There is no doubt of the alternative-the corrupted landscapes of southern Portugal, Spain or Ireland. Avoiding this rather than promoting it should unite the left and right of the political spectrum.
26. Britain's public sentiment about the countryside
[A] is not well reflected in politics
[B] is fully backed by the royal family
[C] didn't start fill the Shakespearean age
[D] has brought much benefit to the NHS
【答案】A
【解析】事實細節題。根據題幹"英國大眾對於鄉村的觀點"，可定位於文章的第一段。從文章第一段的後半段能得出：英國人民在民意調查中將"鄉村"和王室、莎士比亞以及英國國民保健制度並列選為英國讓他們最為自豪的四個方面，但是這種觀點得到的政治支援卻極為有限。A選項"is not well reflected in politics"在政治中沒有得到很好的體現是對原文意思的同義替換，故選A。
27. According to paragraph 2，the achievements of the National Trust are now being
[A] largely overshadowed
[B] properly protected
[C] effectively reinforced
[D] gradually destroyed
【答案】D
【解析】事實細節題。根據題幹很明確能迴文定位到文章第二段。該段通過第一句的"a century ago"和後面的"later"可知是在做古今對比。題幹中問的是"now"，所以重點鎖定在對比中的後半部分，而這部分中"They don't make countryside any more, and every year concrete consumes more of it."一句表明現在的National Trust已背離了它原始的初衷，它之前的那些成就已經消失了。D選項 gradually destroyed正是對這一意思的表述，故選D。
28. Which of the following can be offered from paragraph 3
[A] Labour is under attack for opposing development
[B] The Conservatives may abandon "off-plan" building
[C] Ukip may gain from its support for rural conservation
[D] The Liberal Democrats are losing political influence
【答案】C
【解析】推理判斷題。迴文定位到第三段，該段主要講了各大黨派對於這個觀點(及第一段中提到的觀點)的態度：基本都不贊同。最後一部分"only Ukip, sensing its chance, has sided with those pledging for a considered approach to using green land"該句說明只有Ukip這個黨派是贊同這個觀點，要保護鄉村的。C選項正是對原文的同義置換，故選C。
29. The author holds that George Osbornes's preference
[A] shows his disregard for the character of rural area
[B] stresses the necessity of easing the housing crisis
[C] highlights his firm stand against lobby pressure
[D] reveals a strong prejudice against urban areas
【答案】D
【解析】本題屬於觀點態度題，根據George Osborne 可以定位到文中第五段。文中提到George Osborne favours rural new-build against urban renovation and renewal. 後面一句還提到He favours out-of-town shopping sites against high streets. 通過這兩句話可以看出GO是比較喜歡rural的，而通過兩個against 則可以看出對urban areas的prejudice. 故選擇D。
30. In the last paragraph the author show his appreciation of
[A] the size of population in Britain
[B] the enviable urban lifestyle in Britain
[C] the town-and-country planning in Britain
[D] the political life in today's Britain
【答案】C
【解析】本題屬於觀點態度題，根據最後一段第一句話可以確定本段的中心是第一句Development should be planned, not let trip, 說明發展是要有計劃的，不能任其自由發展。然後再具體講Britain經過半個世紀the town-and-country planning有計劃的發展，取得了很好的成效。故選擇C the town-and-country planning in Britain.
Text 3
"There is one and only one social responsibility of business" wrote Milton Friedman, a Nobel Prize-winning economist "That is, to use its resources and engage in activities designed to increase its profits." But even if you accept Friedman's premise and regard corporate social responsibility(CSR) policies as a waste of shareholders's money, things may not be absolutely clear-act. New research suggests that CSR may create monetary value for companies at least when they are prosecuted for corruption.
The largest firms in America and Britain together spend more than $15 billion a year on CSR, according to an estimate by EPG, a consulting firm. This could add value to their businesses in three ways. First, consumers may take CSR spending as a "signal" that a company's products are of high quality. Second, customers may be willing to buy a company's products as an indirect may to donate to the good causes it helps. And third, through a more diffuse "halo effect" whereby its good deeds earn it greater consideration from consumers and others.
Previous studies on CSR have had trouble differentiating these effects because consumers can be affected by all three. A recent study attempts to separate them by looking at bribery prosecutions under American's Foreign Corrupt Practices Act(FCPA) argues that since prosecutors do not consume a company's products as part of their investigations，they could be influenced only by the halo effect.
The study found that，among prosecuted firms，those with the most comprehensive CSR programmes tended to get more lenient penalties. Their analysis ruled out the possibility that it was firm's political influence, rather than their CSR stand, that accounted for the leniency: Companies that contributed more to political campaigns did not receive lower fines.
In all, the study concludes that whereas prosecutors should only evaluate a case based on its merits, they do seem to be influenced by a company's record in CSR. "We estimate that either eliminating a substantial labour-rights concern, such as child labour, or increasing corporate giving by about20% result in fines that generally are 40% lower than the typical punishment for bribing foreign officials." says one researcher.
Researchers admit that their study does not answer the question at how much businesses ought to spend on CSR. Nor does it reveal how much companies are banking on the halo effect, rather than the other possible benefits, when they companies get into trouble with the law, evidence of good character can win them a less costly punishment.
31. The author views Milton Friedman's statement about CSR with
[A]uncertainty
[B]skepticism
[C]approval
[D]tolerance
【答案】A
【解析】態度題。根據題幹中的關鍵詞Milton Friedman, CSR 可以定位到第一段開頭處，米爾頓·弗裡德曼認為："企業有且只有一種責任，為增加利潤而運用資源，開展活動"。緊接著文章轉折並提出"things may not be absolutely clear-cut"。情況並不明確。由此推知，作者對此的態度是uncertainty。
32. According to Paragraph 2, CSR helps a company by
[A]guarding it against malpractices
[B]protecting it from consumers
[C]winning trust from consumers.
[D]raising the quality of its products
【答案】D
【解析】細節題。根據第二段，以及題幹中的關鍵詞CSR，公司花大筆資金在CSR上面，其結果就是"this could add value to their business in three ways", "以三種方式分別給公司帶來價值"。緊接著文章分別闡述三種方式，得出正確答案為D。
33. The expression "more lenient"(line 2,Para.4)is closest in meaning to
[A]less controversial
[B]more lasting
[C]more effective
[D]less severe
【答案】D
【解析】詞義題。根據題幹迴文定位到第四段第一句。通過該段第二句的描述可以得知CSR和政治影響是對立的兩個因素。而第二句冒號後面交代，參與政治活動較多的公司不會受到較低的罰款。這就意味著，反而具有全面的CSR專案的公司受到的罰款比較低。因此，結合選項可以推出第一句話中的more lenient penalties指less severe，即不那麼嚴重的(寬大)的懲罰。因此正確答案為D。
34. When prosecutors evaluate a case, a company's CSR record
[A]comes across as reliable evidence
[B]has an impact on their decision
[C]increases the chance of being penalized
[D]constitutes part of the investigation
【答案】B
【解析】細節題。根據題幹中的'prosecutors evaluate a case迴文定位到第五段第二句。該句指出雖然檢察官在評估一個案件時，應該基於其功績，實際上還是受到了公司CSR記錄的影響。故正確答案為選項B。
35. Which of the following is true of CSR according to the last paragraph?
[A] The necessary amount of companies spending on it is unknown
[B] Companies' financial capacity for it has been overestimated
[C] Its negative effects on businesses are often overlooked
[D]It has brought much benefit to the banking industry
【答案】A
【解析】細節題。根據題幹迴文定位到最後一段。該段首句指出，研究者們承認他們的研究沒有解決的問題是：針對CSR各大企業到底該支出多少費用。故正確答案為選項A。

There will eventually come a day when The New York Times ceases to publish stories on newsprint. Exactly when that day will be is a matter of debate. "Sometime in the future," the paper's publisher said back in 2010.
Nostalgia for ink on paper and the rustle of pages aside, there's plenty of incentive to ditch print. The infrastructure required to make a physical newspaper - printing presses, delivery trucks - isn't just expensive; it's excessive at a time when online - only competitors don't have the same set of financial constraints. Readers are migrating away from print anyway. And though print ad sales still dwarf their online and mobile counterparts, revenue from print is still declining.
Overhead may be high and circulation lower, but rushing to eliminate its print edition would be a mistake, says BuzzFeed CEO Jonah Peretti.
Peretti says the Times shouldn't waste time getting out of the print business, but only if they go about doing it the right way. "Figuring out a way to accelerate that transition would make sense for them," he said, "but if you discontinue it, you're going have your most loyal customers really upset with you."
Sometimes that's worth making a change anyway. Peretti gives the example of Netflix discontinuing its DVD-mailing service to focus on streaming. "It was seen as blunder," he said. The move turned out to be foresighted. And if Peretti were in charge at the Times? "I wouldn't pick a year to end print," he said "I would raise prices and make it into more of a legacy product."
The most loyal customers would still get the product they favor, the idea goes, and they'd feel like they were helping sustain the quality of something they believe in. "So if you're overpaying for print, you could feel like you were helping," Peretti said. "Then increase it at a higher rate each year and essentially try to generate additional revenue." In other words, if you're going to make a print product, make it for the people who are already obsessed with it. Which may be what the Times is doing already. Getting the print edition seven days a week costs nearly $500 a year - more than twice as much as a digital - only subscription.
"It's a really hard thing to do and it's a tremendous luxury that BuzzFeed doesn't have a legacy business," Peretti remarked. "But we're going to have questions like that where we have things we're doing that don't make sense when the market changes and the world changes. In those situations, it's better to be more aggressive that less aggressive."
36. The New York Times is considering ending it's print edition partly due to
[A] the increasing online and sales
[B] the pressure from its investors
[C] the complaints from its readers
[D] the high cost of operation
【答案】D
【解析】從題幹提取關鍵詞ending和due to 定位到第二段主題句中的 incentive to ditch the print (放棄印刷的原因)。隨後解釋了infrastructure isn't just expensive (裝置不僅僅是昂貴)。此外，該段還對比對手電子圖書：don't have the same set of financial constraints(經濟限制)。因此可以確定答案D。
37. Peretti suggests that in face of the present situation, The Times should
[A] make strategic adjustments
[B] end the print sedition for good
[C] seek new sources of leadership
[D] aim for efficient management
【答案】A
【解析】首先根據Peretti suggests定位到闡述Peretti觀點的第四段第一句：Peretti says the Times shouldn't waste time getting out of the print business, but only if they go about doing it the right way.可以確定答案A。
38. It can be inferred from paragraphs 5and 6 that a " legacy product"
[A] helps restore the glory of former times
[B] is meant for the most loyal customers
[C] will have the cost of printing reduced
[D] expands the popularity of the paper
【答案】B
【解析】本題答案定位到第6段第1句"The most loyal customers would still get the product they favor"以及"make it for the people who are already obsessed with it"。
39. Peretti believes that in a changing world
[A] traditional luxuries can stay unaffected
[B] cautiousness facilitates problem-solving
[C] aggressiveness better meets challenges
[D] legacy businesses are becoming out dated
【答案】C
【解析】根據題幹中的"in a changing world"定位到文章最後一段最後一句. 原文說當市場和世界形勢發生變化時，我們所做的事情就毫無意義了。在這種情形下，"more aggressive(積極進取)is better", 和答案中的關鍵資訊"aggressiveness better"相呼應。
40. which of the following would be the best title of the text?
[A] shift to online newspapers all at once
[B] Cherish the Newspapers still in Your Hand
[C] keep Your Newspapers Forever in Fashion
[D] Make Your print Newspapers a luxury Good
【答案】D
【解析】本文主要是講述報紙行業為防止被淘汰的而需要做出的應對之策。根據文中第5段最後一句的"raise prices, and make it into more of a legacy product"以及第6段中"increase it at a higher rate each year..."可得知，應該把報紙變成一種更像文化遺產的一種產品，並且要不斷提高報紙的價格，變成一種奢侈品。
Part B
Directions:
Read the following text and answer the questions by choosing the most suitable subheading from the list A-G for each of the numbered paragraphs (41-45). There are two extra subheadings. Mark your answers on the ANSER SHEET. (10 point)
[A] Create a new image of yourself
[B] Decide if the time is right
[C] Have confidence in yourself
[D]Understand the context
[E]Work with professionals
[F]Make it efficient
[G]Know your goals
No matter how formal or informal the work environment, the way you present yourself has an impact. This is especially true in the first impressions. According to research from Princeton University , people assess your competence, trustworthiness, and likeability in just a tenth of a second, solely based on the way you look.
The difference between today's workplace and the "dress for success" era is that the range of options is so much broader. Norms have evolved and fragmented. In some settings, red sneakers or dress T-shirts can convey status; in other not so much. Plus, whatever image we present is magnified by social-media services like LinkedIn. Chances are, your headshots are seen much more often now than a decade or two ago. Millennials, it seems, face the paradox of being the least formal generation yet the most conscious of style and personal branding. It can be confusing.
So how do we navigate this? How do we know when to invest in an upgrade? And what's the best way to pull off one than enhances our goals? Here are some tips:
41
【答案】B
【解析】該段中出現了表示時間的詞彙和短語：during transitions; in a period of , time。在不同的時間段，作者給出了不同的策略。瀏覽標題發現，只有選項B出現了表示時間的詞彙。本段第二句中的good與小標題中的right也恰好對應，因此確定正確答案為B選項。
As an executive coach, I've seen image upgrades be particular helpful during transitions-when looking for a new job, stepping into a new or more public role, or changing work environments. If you're in a period of change or just feeling stuck and in a rut, now may be a good time. If you're not sure, ask for honest feedback from trusted friends, colleagues and professionals. Look for cues about how others perceive you. Maybe there's no need for an upgrade and that's OK
42
【答案】G
【解析】該段首句提到"弄清楚你希望達到的效果"，然後以問句形式提出段落主題，接著分兩個方面來闡述：目標不同，要求不同。本段第一句話中的"get clear"與小標題中的"know"屬於同義表達，並且本段第三句話中the goal 與小標題中的goal完全對應，因此正確答案為G選項。
Get clear on what impact you're hoping to have. Are you looking to refresh your image or pivot it? For one person, the goal may be to be taken more seriously and enhance their professional image. For another, it may be to be perceived as more approachable, or more modern and stylish. For someone moving from finance to advertising, maybe they want to look more "SoHo." (It's OK to use characterizations like that )
43
【答案】D
【解析】該段第一句話提到"要像人類學家一樣來考慮你的工作環境"，接著給出了幾個排比的問句，都是針對工作環境的具體細節的發問。最重要的是在結尾部分，作者總結評論道，"The better you …, the more control you …"，意為"對文化背景理解得越好，對自己的影響力就有越好的控制"。很明顯，這句話凸顯了context的重要性，而且出現了關鍵詞的復現understand和context。因此，答案選D選項。
Look at your work environment like an anthropologist. What are the norms of your environment? What conveys status? Who are your most important audiences? How do the people you respect and look up to present themselves? The better you understand the cultural context, the more control you can have over your impact.
44
【答案】E
【解析】本段按照總分的形式安排，並且在首句給出兩處關鍵詞professionals 和 share with，即"支援專家的意見，並且與其分享個人的目標"。下文是舉例論述，例如去找私人造型師而不是理髮師等。緊接著下文就給出 "work with a professional photographer"讓專業人士拍照片而不是自己的朋友或者是配偶。因此可以得出結論本段是圍繞專業人士professionals 的重要性來展開的。故選擇 Work with professionals.
Enlist the support of professionals and share with them your goals and context. Hire a personal stylist, or use the free styling service of a store like J. Crew. Try a hair stylist instead of a barber. Work with a professional photographer instead of your spouse or friend. It's not as expensive as you might think.
45
【答案】F
【解析】該段落主題句出現在轉折之後，即"Instead, use it as an opportunity to reduce decision fatigue."，其中it指代上一句中style upgrade。通過前後兩句話對比指出目的是利用style upgrade作為機會來reduce decision fatigue(減少決定疲乏)，從而來提高辦事效率。後兩句話作為論據進一步論證這一觀點，因此答案選F選項。
The point of a style upgrade isn't to become more vain or to spend more time fussing over what to wear. Instead, use it as an opportunity to reduce decision fatigue. Pick a standard work uniform or a few go-to options. Buy all your clothes at once with a stylist instead of shopping alone, one article of clothing at a time.

Part C
Directions:
Read the following text carefully and then translate the underlined segments into Chinese. Your translation should be written neatly on the ANSWER SHEET. (10 points)
Mental health is our birthright. (46) we don't have to learn how to be mentally healthy, it is built into us in the same way that our bodies know how to heal a cut or mend, a broken bone. Mental health can't be learned, only reawakened. It is like immune system of the body, which under stress or through lack of nutrition or exercise can be weakened, but which never leaves us. When we don't understand the value of mental health and we don't know how to gain access to it, mental health will remain hidden from us. (47) Our mental health doesn't go anywhere; like the sun behind a cloud, it can be temporarily hidden from view, but it is fully capable of being restored in an instant.
Mental health is the seed that contains self-esteem -confidence in ourselves and an ability to trust in our common sense. It allows us to have perspective on our lives-the ability to not take ourselves too seriously, to laugh at ourselves, to see the bigger picture, and to see that things will work out. It's a form of innate or unlearned optimism. (48) Mental health allows us to view others with sympathy if they are having troubles, with kindness if they are in pain, and with unconditional love no matter who they are. Mental health is the source of creativity for solving problems, resolving conflict, making our surroundings more beautiful, managing our home life, or coming up with a creative business idea or invention to make our lives easier. It gives us patience for ourselves. And toward others as well as patience while driving, catching a fish, working on our car, or raising a child. It allows us to see the beauty that surrounds us each moment in nature, in culture, in the flow of our daily lives.
(49)Although mental health is the cure-all for living our lives, it is perfecting ordinary as you will see that it has been there to direct you through all your difficult decisions. It has been available even in the most mundane of life situations to show you right from wrong, good from bad, friend from foe. Mental health has commonly been called conscience, instinct, wisdom, common sense, or the inner voice, we think of it simply as a health and helpful flow of intelligent thought. (50) As you will come to see, knowing that mental health is always available and knowing to trust it allow us to slow down to the moment and live life happily.
