Throughout the campaign, one of Trump's main challenges was to persuade voters that he has the attitude, knowledge and judgment to be president. In the end, he was able to attract more than enough voters to his side.Hillary Clinton admitted the election to Trump in a phone call at around 2:30 am." Hillary has worked very long and very hard over a long period of time," Trump told his supporters during his victory speech. "We owe her a major debt of gratitude for her service to our country. "Hillary Clinton delivered her speech later in the day. "We must accept this result and then look to the future," she told her disappointed supporters. " Donald Trump is goingto be our president.

In 2004, he became a TV star with the reality show The Apprentice.Now Trump and his team will have to face many difficult things. They'll have to work to bring the country together after a divisive campaign that upset millions of Americans. Throughout the country, millions of Amer icans are out of work and struggling to make ends meet. The new president must also address international issues.

The different types of tea depend upon the region in which it is grown, harvesting time and the procedure of processing. Basically, there are four major classes of tea: white, oolong, green and black tea.One of the least processed and, the purest forms of tea are the white tea. This tea type has very low content of caffeine and appears a light color, as the name also indicates and a mild flavor. Due to the presence of high amount of healthy chemicals, it is helpful in fighting skin-related health problems and in getting a fair color of skin.Another tea type is the oolong tea, also called as wulong tea at some places which has very rich flavor and has a sweet fragrance. It is fermented(酝酿) but to a limited level because of whic h, the caffeine content in it is about 15% of what is in a cup of coffee. Drinking this tea proves to be useful in treating obesity, which is reducing the weight. As opposing to oolong tea, the black tea is fully fermented, as a result of which it has caffeine of approximately 200/o of what is present in a cup of coffee. If you consume black tea every day, you will be able to regulate the cholesterol(胆固醇) levels in the body and also keeping your circulatory system healthy. It also adjusts cardiovascular(心血管的 )function.The last tea type is the green tea that is mostly preferred by many people owing to its multiple health benefits. Similar to the white tea, this tea also has less caffeine that is only50/o -100/o of caffeine in one cup of coffee. This type of tea is also good to maint ain thecholesterol and blood sugar levels within the acceptable range. In addition, they help inpreventing tooth rot and other teeth-related illness. So, you can choose that variety that youfind good with regard to its taste and health benefits.28. Which are you advised to drink if you want to become more beautiful?A. White tea.B. Oolong tea.C.

Boston Consulting Group predicts that, by 2025, the operating cost of a robot that does welding(焊接) will be less than $2 per hour, for example. That's more affordable than the $25 per hour that a human welder earns today in America.Uber and many other companies are working on developing cars and trucks that don't need a driver in the driver's seat. According to the American Trucking Associations, approximately 3 million truck drivers were employed in the United States in 2010,and 6.8 million others were employed in other jobs relating to trucking activity. So roughly one of every 15 workers in the country is employed in the trucking business. We could be talking about millions of jobs disappearing in the early 2020s.And then there is the " Gig Economy(零工经济 ) " that has some businesses moving toward part-time, on-demand employment. Uber has already done this to taxi drivers, and other technology companies are doing it to a wide range of jobs. A study by Intuit predicted that, by 2020,400/o of American workers will be self-employed, and that full-time jobs will be harder to find. We are talking about 60 million people in this category. The problem is that not only do such part-time workers lack reliable full-time jobs and sick pay, but they can't enjoy health insurance and longer-term benefits.The measures to be taken are to raise trade barriers. But closing the doors to foreign trade won't bring jobs back. It will only slow the global economy and hurt American exports, shrinking the U. S. economy and accelerating job loss.32. The underlined word “decimate" in Paragraph l can be replaced by“____.A. make someone interested inB. equip someone forC.wipe out D.bring back33. What will happen with technologies developing according to the text?A. Robots will become smarter and smarter.B. Uber's labor cost will be lower and lower.C. More and more truck drive rs will be needed.D. Taxi drivers can enjoy more insurancehealth.34. Which of the following does the writer agree on?A. Welcoming foreign trade.B. Offering more part-time jobs.C. Using fewer robots to stop job loss.D. Developing more new technologies.35. What's the writer's main purpose in writing the text?A. To show technology advances in our daily life.B. To prove technologies cause low incomes.C. To introduce what the Gig Economy is.D. To warn the Gig Economy is coming.第二节(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)With so many pressures can any of us be truly happy?
