11、a first-time visitor to China, it is impossible to ignore the popularity of Quick-Response (QR) codes. These square-shaped black-and-white symbols in WeChat or Alipay where QR codes are scanned to add new friends or make payments.The QR Code system originated in Japan. The engineer Masahiro Hara fel

12、t the limitation of the one-dimension barcode in use and thus developed the QR codes which could carry data horizontally and vertically. QR codes could hold much more information than barcode due to their extra dimension. In addition, QR codes have larger data capacity, smaller printout size and hig

13、her resistance to dirt and damage, which make them widely applied in many other applications.Though the technology of QR codes is complicated, we can easily create our own QR codes with the help of QR code generators, many of which are available online for free. Users could enter the data they wish

14、the QR code to display, and the generator turns it into a symbol that can be printed or displayed in electronic form. The process of creating QR codes could be really fun when we customise the design of the codes according to our specific needs. For instance, we can adjust the color, add a logo, and

15、 create social options etc. Moreover, dynamic (動態(tài)的) QR codes are also available. They are more various than standard QR codes because they allow users to edit data entered previously whereas data in standard QR codes cannot be edited once printed. Plus, dont limit your QR code to one mobile scanner.

16、 Anyone can scan your code with any reader. A lower barrier to entry makes success more likely for you and the user.Meanwhile, we must also recognize the vulnerability of QR codes. Due to its easy access, criminals can steal simply by replacing the QR codes with their own, routing cash into their ow

17、n bank accounts. Hence, we should all become more conscious towards virtual money transactions through QR codes and participate in additional security measures.1、Which of the following is NOT a function of QR codes?AData storage.BScanning reader.CSocial networking.DMobile payment.2、Why is barcode me

22、 salmon buffet at the Liarsville Trail Camp is sure to tame even the hungriest beast. Savor wild Alaskan salmon grilled over an open alder wood fire, a variety of salads, cornbread and dessert. After your meal, you may return or be dropped off in Skagway for shopping.Guest Reviews (4)Palp from Vanco

23、uver Great one hour stop at the Suspension Bridge. The salmon bake in Liarsville was the best part! It was a buffet of UNLIMITED salmon that was being freshly cooked over an open fire. Overall good excursion, just a little too expensive for what it is.Dragon from Los Angles Did this on May 1, 2019.

24、Our guide, Glenn, was very enthusiastic and knowledgeable, keeping us entertained all the way by making jokes and explaining the history of the landmarks.

But their days may be numbered, thanks to a new taxi repl

29、acement programme aimed at knocking out older, potentially unsafe vehicles.The government-sponsored action, launched earlier this year, allows drivers of taxis 20 years or older, mostly Fiats and Peugeots, to trade their cars for shiny new all-white ones at generous rates of financing. Drivers can c

30、hoose between five different locally manufactured car models.According to officials, more than 11,000 brand new taxis, sporting trademark checked stripes on the sides, have already hit the streets of the capital, and theyve been welcomed enthusiastically by passengers. Many people say that not only

31、are the new taxis more comfortable, but they also make the streets of Cairo far more presentable. Furthermore, taxi fares have only increased by a small amount.The poor condition of most black and white taxis is almost legendary. Passengers often have to deal with windows and doors that do not open

32、and close, and heavy, thick petrol gases. Air conditioning is unheard of. The new all-white taxis, meanwhile, are cleaner, more fuel-efficient and provide air conditioning on request. Furthermore, all the new taxis come equipped with functioning fare meters, which avoids arguments and sometimes figh

33、ts with passengers!The government hopes to replace all of the capitals 40,000 elderly black cabs soon, but not everyone in Cairo will be happy to see them go.

36、ecycling is essential in todays world. The most important reason for this is that human progress and industry have made it possible for people to have lots of things, and when people have many material possessions, they are bound to throw some of them away. This creates a lot of garbage which in tur

37、n destroys the environment.Recycling is a way for us to keep the world clean as items are broken down and used again, preventing the littering of the environment. Instead of throwing all your garbage into the trash can, you should separate paper, metal, glass, and plastic into different containers.

38、Compost should also be recycled as this is excellent food for farm animals and also makes for great fertilizer(肥料).You should try to buy products that have been recycled. You can see if an item has been made from recycled materials by its label; if its been recycled, it will say so. Also, instead of

39、 always buying new clothes, you can arrange to have a clothing swap with your friends. You bring clothes you dont want and pick items you want from what other people have brought. Not only does this save the environment, but it also saves your pocketbook. Remember, what is one persons junk can be so

40、meone elses treasure! The saying can be applied to all sorts of things: books, CDS, furniture, etc. Also, try shopping at second-hand stores, because they often have lots of items still in good shape for you to choose.Many countries have made it easy for people to recycle, as alongside the normal ga

41、rbage trucks, special garbage trucks come and pick up recyclables. However, in many countries around the world the responsibility is left up to the individual to recycle. Therefore, it must be made a priority (優(yōu)先考慮的事) in society so we can continue to make our environment livable.1、Why is more waste

42、being made in todays world?APeople dislike the updated items.BPeople own abundant belongings.CPeople intend to live a simple life.DPeople have made great progress in industry.2、What does the underlined word“this”in Paragraph 3 refer to?AExchanging clothes with friends.BShopping at second-hand stores

43、.CThrowing away old clothes.DPicking up new items.3、To make the environment enjoyable, we should .Aalways buy new clothesBchoose recyclable productsCgo shopping at chain storesDarrange more garbage trucks4、What can we learn from the last paragraph?AGovernments do nothing in recycling.BNormal vehicle

44、s can pick up recyclables.CThe individual seldom cares about recycling.DEveryone should feel socially responsible for rcling.25（10分） When Huang Lizhi took her first class in African sociology at the University of the Witwatersrand in South Africa in February, her professor asked her and her classmat

45、es what impresses them most when it comes to Africa.Unexpectedly, Huang, 31, found that words like “poverty” and “safari” negative words that were often associated with the continent in media reports were the kind of terms her African classmates didnt want to hear. Instead, they preferred to hear th

46、e question answered in this way: “Africa is the cradle of humankind” and “Africans are passionate and generous”.Apparently, there are some misunderstandings between us. Its true that with incidents like the Ebola outbreak in Western Africa and the emergence (出現(xiàn)) of pirates off the coast of Somalia h

47、itting the news, its easy for us to keep forgetting that Africa has one of the worlds oldest civilizations Egypt, born by the worlds longest river, the Nile. The proof is in the Great Pyramid of Giza and the Great Sphinx of Giza, which are both popular among tourists. And the tombs of ancient Egypt

48、have also become endless sources for the literature and film industries.When it comes to the natural environment of Africa, our misunderstandings are only bigger. But the truth is that instead of being extremely hot all year and covered by desert, the continent has large areas of savannas (稀樹草原) whe

49、re lions, giraffes and zebras live, the snowcapped Kilimanjaro the highest mountain in Africa and even thick forest on the island of Madagascar.These misunderstandings are one of the reasons why the 2018 Beijing Summit of the Forum on China-Africa Cooperation was held on Sept 3 and 4 to understand e

50、ach other better.Indeed, only by visiting Africa herself did Huang see the convenient living conditions, the amazing natural beauty and the friendly people.In her eyes, her classmates were as hopeful about the future of their own countries as they were about Africa as a whole, and they were quick to

51、 demonstrate both their strong will and activity. “At that moment, I knew exactly what they wanted they wanted their culture to be respected.”1、Which of the following best explains “cradle ” underlined in paragraph 2?AA small bed for babies.BA basket to hold something.CA place for people to relax th

52、emselves.DA place where something important began.2、What can we infer about Africa according to the passage ?AIt is very hot all the year round.BIts not a safe continent to live inCIts different from what we imagine.DIt is bound to have a bright future3、Which of the following would Huang agree with

53、?ATo see is to believeBThink twice before you doCA miss is as good as a mileDDont judge a person by his appearance4、What can be a suitable title for the text?AValuing a Culture.BUnderstanding Africa.CPaying a Visit to Africa.DDiscovering a Continent.第三部分 語言知識運用（共兩節(jié)）第一節(jié)（每小題1.5分，滿分30分）閱讀下面短文，從短文后各題所給的
