Let’s meet some of the great women who have left their mark one in the country’s highest court. Margaret Brent In the early years women were prevented from practicing law. However, Margaret Brent, a wealthy landlord living in Maryland, was an exception. She appeared before courts several times to file lawsuits（诉讼）against people who owed her money.‎ Lucy Prince Lucy was well-known for her skills as a public speaker, and in 1976 she became ‎ the first black woman in America to argue before a Supreme Court justice. The case arose from a land conflict, and Lucy argued against two leading lawyers. Chief Justice Samuel Chase, said that Lucy “ made a better argument than he had ever heard from a lawyer in Vermont.”‎ Ruth Ginsburg Born in Brooklyn, Ginsburg graduated from Cornell University and Columbia Law School. Between 1972 and 1978, Ginsburg argued six cases before the Supreme Court concerning laws that kept women out of certain occupations. She won five of them. Later she was appointed to hold an important post in the Supreme Court by President Bill Clinton.‎ Myra Bradwell In 1872, the Illinois Supreme Court denied Myra Bradwell’s admission to the Illinois Bar despite the fact that she had passed the state bar exam. Bradwell then asked the U.S. Supreme Court to overturn the Illinois court’s decision. U nfor t una tely for Br a dw ell, the tables weren’t turned.The Supreme Court claimed that there was nothing illegal about denying a woman the chance to practice as a lawyer.‎ ‎1.

She won five of them.从1972年到1978年，Ginsburg在最高法院审理了6起有关禁止妇女从事某些职业的法律案件。她赢了五场。可知，Ruth Ginsburg关心妇女的平等问题。故选C项。‎ ‎【3题详解】‎ 词义猜测题。根据前两句In 1872, the Illinois Supreme Court denied Myra Bradwell’ s admission to the Illinois Bar despite the fact that she had passed the state bar exam. Bradwell then asked the U.S. Supreme Court to overturn the Illinois court’s decision.（1872年，伊利诺斯州最高法院拒绝了Myra Bradwell的律师资格，尽管她通过了州律师考试。Bradwell随后要求美国最高法院推翻伊利诺斯法院的裁决。）及划线单词Unfortunately for Bradwell可知，美国最高法院不支持Myra Bradwell。故选D项。‎ B I have two kids, a boy and a girl. I don’t worry about my girl; I’m sure she’ll be well trained and educated, but I worry about my son. I’m pretty sure he’s going to be feminine (女性化的). No dad wants his son to go feminine, but let’s face it.‎ You won’t be able to tell the difference between boys and girls in a couple of years. Sound extreme? As often is the case, in a movie where advanced time-traveling beings come to our planet, you can’t tell the male aliens(外星人) from the female aliens!‎ Look around the world today, kids are soft and fat. People ask why. Is it junk food? No. Junk food has been around for fifty years. Is it video games? No. Video games have been around for thirty years. None of the kids playing them back were terribly obese（肥胖症）. We’re all scratching our heads trying to figure out what ‎ we’ve introduced to society to ruin our kids. In fact, you will find it’s stuff we’ve gotten rid of rather than what we’ve added that has ruined our kids.‎ Take the gym rope for example. Remember the rope that stretched from the floor to the ceiling in your gym class that you could never climb? Most of the kids couldn’t make it to the top. The point is that you should try. We should have put our son on that rope, and given him a start. But we didn’t want to shame the boy, so we took it down.‎ Taking down the rope would be a good idea if there were no ropes in life. But they’re everywhere. You just can’t see them. They’re in goals unrealized and expectations unsatisfied. The point everyone missed about the rope is that you weren’t supposed to make it to the top. It was there to create a fire burning in the oversize belly of every kid.‎ ‎4. What is the example of aliens used to show?‎ A. Boys are going feminine.‎ B. Girls are dressed like boys.‎ C There are really time-traveling beings.‎ D. Alien movies are popular with children.‎ ‎5. What causes kids today to be soft and fat?‎ A. Junk food.‎ B. Video games.‎ C. Stuff introduced to society.‎ D. Things removed from society.‎ ‎6. How does the author find teenagers today?‎ A. They are overprotected.‎ B. They are less independent.‎ C. They have too much dignity.‎ D. They are too highly thought of.‎ ‎7. What does the rope in the text probably symbolize?‎ A. Motivation.‎ B. Challenges.‎ C. Assistance.‎ D. Expectations.‎ ‎【答案】4. A 5. D 6. A 7. B ‎【解析】‎ 这是一篇说明文。文章探讨了当今社会男孩女性化的趋势背后的原因及应对措施。‎ ‎【4题详解】‎ 推理判断题。根据第二段you won’t be able to tell the difference between boys and girls再结合最后一句you can’t tell the male aliens(外星人) from the female aliens! 你分不清男外星人和女外星人，可知利用你分不清男外星人和女外星人的例子是为了说现在的男孩子女性化了。故选A项。‎ ‎【5题详解】‎ 细节理解题。根据第三段中We’re all scratching our heads trying to figure out what we’ve introduced to society to ruin our kids. In fact, you will find it’s stuff we’ve gotten rid of rather than what we’ve added that has ruined our kids.是因为我们抛弃了一些社会准则使得孩子变得女性化了。故选D项。‎ ‎【6题详解】‎ 推理判断题。根据第五段They're in every goal unrealized and expectation not met. The point everyone missed about the rope is you weren't supposed to make it to the top. It was there to create a fire that burned in the oversize belly of every kid. 通过绳子不是拿来爬到山顶，而是应该拿来生一把火去督促孩子，可知作者认为孩子们过多的被保护了，故选A项。‎ ‎【7题详解】‎ 词义猜测题。根据倒数第一段Taking down the rope would be a good idea if there were no ropes in life. But they’re everywhere. You just can’t see them. They’re in goals unrealized and expectations unsatisfied.什么是无处不在的但是你又看不到的呢？他们存在在没实现的目标中，也在没达到的期望中，故作者举例中的rope指的是生活中的竞争(Challenges)，可知此处是“挑战”之意。故选B项。‎ C Google’s new camera, called Clips, is a smart device. It comes with a case that ‎ has a clip (夹 子), but it’s not designed to be worn on your clothing. Most interestingly, it uses artificial intelligence to take photography out of your hands and captures moments entirely on its own!‎ What sets this roughly 2-inch by 2-inch camera, with a three-hour battery life and Gorilla Glass for toughness apart is that it is specially intended for candid moments, like when a child does something cute that may happen too quickly for you to pull out your smartphone.‎ The Clips device, it uses machine learning algorithms ( 计 算 程 序 ) to help capture scenes. Those algorithms include face recognition. “Once it learns that there’s a face you see frequently, it’ll try to get nice photos of those faces,” said Juston Payne, the device’s product manager. And they also want it to recognize facial expressions, which involved “training it to know what happiness looks like”. The Google team also trained it to recognize what not to shoot—like when a child’s hand is over the lens, or if it is tossed in a dark purse.‎ The only way to see the images is by connecting the camera with your phone, as it has no screen for viewing or editing.‎ Concerned it could seem strange? Yes, Payne admitted, but he said they addressed that by making it obvious what it is. A green light on the front signals that it is on. Besides, unlike a camera meant to monitor your home, it is not connected to the Internet.‎ ‎“This product is only possible because of the way that silicon(硅) has advanced,” Payne said that now they could squeeze the technology down into a device this size. Going forward, we’re likely to get more assistance from the artificial intelligence packed into our apps and gadgets.‎ ‎8. What is the most outstanding feature of Clips?‎ A. It enables easy Internet access.‎ B. It is equipped with tough glass.‎ C. It can be worn on your clothing.‎ D. It allows of hands-free photography.‎ ‎9. What does the underlined word “candid” in Paragraph 2 mean?‎ A. Awkward. B. Brief.‎ C. Touching. D. Unforgettable.‎ ‎10. What makes Clips a reality according to Juston Payne?‎ A. The advance in technology.‎ B. The popularity of the Internet.‎ C. The screen for viewing and editing.‎ D. The rise of the smartphone industry.‎ ‎11. What does the text mainly talk about?‎ A. New gadgets in the age of apps.‎ B. Artificial intelligence in daily Life.‎ C. A new digital camera from Google.‎ D. An alternative way to photograph.‎ ‎【答案】8. D 9. B 10. A 11. C ‎【解析】‎ 这是一篇说明文。本文主要介绍了谷歌公司推出了一款叫Clips的新相机，并对照相机的各种功能和使用进行了介绍。‎ ‎【8题详解】‎ 细节理解题。根据文章第一段Most interestingly, it uses artificial intelligence to take photography out of your hands so it can capture moments on its own可知，谷歌开发的这款相机使用人工智能来拍照，不需要你动手按键，它就可以帮助你记录美好的精彩瞬间。故选D项。‎ ‎【9题详解】‎ 词义猜测题。根据划线单词下一句like when a child does something cute that may happen too quickly for you to pull out your smartphone.比如孩子做了一些可爱的事情，你可能来不及拿出智能手机。可知，画线句表示：这款相机能解决手机不能及时抓拍小孩子所做的短暂又可爱的事。candid moments意为“短暂”的时刻。故选B项。‎ ‎【10题详解】‎ 细节理解题。根据文章最后一段“This product is only possible because of the way that silicon has advanced, ” Payne said, noting that it was only in the past year or so that they could squeeze the technology down into a device this size. Going forward,‎ ‎ we’re likely to get more assistance from the artificial intelligence packed into our apps and gadgets可知，这款相机依靠先进的科技和人工智能等使得它成为了可能，成为了可以帮助人们记录美好瞬间的工具。故选A项。‎ ‎【11题详解】‎ 主旨大意题。通读全文尤其是第一段Google’s new camera, called Clips, is a small, smart device.可知，本文主要讲述了谷歌开发一款新的照相机，并对照相机的各种功能和使用进行了介绍。故选C项。‎ D The assumption that depression is a disease has been supported by biologists, psychiatrists and companies producing medicine. Although advances in medical treatment have certainly been responsible for reducing much suffering, sticking to the disease model is preventing a more complete understanding of why we are so likely to suffer from depression, with at least 45% of people experiencing the condition in their lifetimes.‎ My recent review of theories and personal observations suggests that depression might serve some useful functions. We should not forget that depression has meaning, and that there is a real new life after recovery.‎ A recent study of depression in Holland showed that people seemed to cope better with hardships in life after depression than they were doing before it. In the group as a whole, liveliness, psychological health, social and spare-time activities, performance at work and general health all significantly improved upon recovery from depression.‎ Depression can lead to great insights(洞察力) and achievements. More than 2,000 years ago, Aristotle believed depression to be a state of great moral and spiritual value because of the insights it could bring. The philosopher John Stuart Mill wrote his famous work, Utilitarianism, at the age of 19 and became depressed at the age of 21. Upon recovery, he admitted that the experience had taught him an important lesson---that he should not sacrifice(牺牲) his social and emotional development to intellectual ambition.‎ Theories have suggested that depression could be a defense against the long-time ‎ stress. It is possible that depression defends us against the tendency to ignore our true needs by chasing unobtainable goals and helps to bring these needs into sharper focus.‎ Depression may bring about a “rebirth” because it removes a false idea about oneself. There is some evidence from scientific studies to show that depressed people are rather more realistic in their thinking than “healthy” individuals. With recovery, a new kind of truth could be found, which would do away with blind optimism: a more modest evaluation of the depressed person’s own ability, containing a more balanced picture of his or her life.‎ Depression may have forced our ancestors to look again at their strengths and weaknesses, and their coping strategies. Regardless of the reason for falling into depression, the journey has potential to make us better equipped, in a general sense, for life.‎ ‎12. Which of the following is the disadvantage of treating depression as a disease?‎ A. People dislike being taken as patients.‎ B. The medical treatment costs a lot of money.‎ C. It prevents us from better understanding depression.‎ D. It stops people from getting a balanced picture of life.‎ ‎13. After recovering from depression John Stuart Mill realized that he shouldn’t _________ .‎ A. take part in too many social activities B. aim too high in intellectual achievement C. write Utilitarianism at such an early age D. consider too much about emotional needs ‎14. What functions can depression serve?‎ a. It enables people to perform better at work b. It makes it easier to achieve people’s dream. ‎ c. It helps people to get a realistic view of self d. It improves people’s ability to deal with difficulties A. abc B. bcd C. abd D. acd ‎15. What can be a suitable title for this passage?‎ A. Ways to Address Depression B. Brave Attitude to Depression C. Depression: Disease or Rebirth?‎ D. Depression: Assumption or Reality?‎ ‎【答案】12. C 13. B 14. D 15. C ‎【解析】‎ 这是一篇说明文。抑郁症虽然被确认是一种病，但抑郁症也可能起到一些有益的作用。抑郁有助于重生，更好地应对生活。‎ ‎【12题详解】‎ 细节理解题。根据第一段Although advances in medical treatment have certainly been responsible for reducing much suffering, sticking to the disease model is preventing a more complete understanding of why we are so likely to suffer from depression尽管医疗技术的进步确实减少了很多痛苦，但坚持疾病模型使我们无法更全面地理解为什么我们如此容易患上抑郁症。可知，阻止我们更好地理解抑郁症是将抑郁症作为一种疾病治疗的缺点。故选C项。‎ ‎【13题详解】‎ 细节理解题。根据第四段Upon recovery, he admitted that the experience had taught him an important lesson---that he should not sacrifice(牺牲) his social and emotional development to intellectual ambition. 康复后，他承认这次经历给了他一个重要的教训——他不应该为了追求智力而牺牲自己的社交和情感发展。可知，John Stuart Mill意识到他不应该在智力成就上目标过高。故选B项。‎ ‎【14题详解】‎ 细节理解题。根据第三段A recent study of depression in Holland showed that people seemed to cope better with hardships in life after depression than they were doing before it. 最近在荷兰进行的一项关于抑郁症的研究表明，人们在抑郁症后似乎比在抑郁症前更好地应对生活中的困难，可知d项“它提高了人们处理困难的能力”正确；根据第四段Depression can lead to great insights and achievements.‎ ‎ 抑郁可以带来伟大的洞察力和成就。可知，a项“它使人们在工作中表现得更好”正确；根据第六段Depression may bring about a “rebirth” because it removes a false idea about oneself. 抑郁可能带来“重生”，因为它消除了对自己的错误认识。可知c项“它帮助人们对自己有一个现实的认识”正确；故选D项。‎ ‎【15题详解】‎ 主旨大意题。根据文章开头The assumption that depression is a disease has been supported by biologists, psychiatrists and companies producing medicine.可知，抑郁症是一种疾病已经得到得到了生物学家、精神病医生和生产药物的公司的支持。再根据第二段中My recent review of theories and personal observations suggests that depression might serve some useful functions. We should not forget that depression has meaning, and that there is a real new life after recovery. (我最近对各种理论和个人观察的回顾表明，抑郁症可能起到一些有益的作用。我们不应该忘记抑郁是有意义的，而且在康复后会有一个真正的新生活。)以及最后一段Depression may bring about a “rebirth” because it removes a false idea about oneself. (抑郁可能会带来“重生”，因为它消除了对自己的错误认识。)可知，文章讲述了抑郁症虽然被确认确实是一种病，但抑郁症也有助于重生，故文章的合适标题应该是“抑郁：疾病还是重生？”。故选C项。‎ 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。‎ A dog’s mind is only equal to that of a two-year-old baby. _____16_____ As a result, they are likely to notice any change in the behavior of their owners.

They have an ability to sense sadness and are attached to troubled souls.‎ ‎___18___ They can easily tell when you’re playing with favorites. Whenever you spend more with other pets, your dog might sense it and feel uncomfortable. Though they can’t say out how they feel, they will scratch, yawn or lick their mouths.‎ Dogs smell fear. Let’s say you’re faced with your worst fear. Would you get scared and run away or just face it? Before choosing how to deal with it, you should ‎ remember one thing. ___19___ Research shows that dogs often notice their masters’ responses in dangerous situations. If you fear something and choose to back away, chances are that your pet is going to do the same thing.‎ Dogs are watching you. We are all educated as respectable individuals who are instructed to respect elders, obey the law and help out people in need once in a while. ______20______ But if you have a dog at home, it is time to be serious about them.

They are able to notice health problems.‎ C. You would be setting an example to your pet.‎ D. They can sense when nobody is looking at them.‎ E. However, not all of us take these three things seriously.‎ F. Every time you are in a bad mood, your dog just knows it.‎ G. However, dogs are capable of sensing everything around them.‎ ‎【答案】16. G 17. F 18. A 19. C 20. E ‎【解析】‎ 这是一篇说明文。作者通过这篇文章主要向我们描述了狗也是有思想的，能感知周围的一切，包括人的情绪等。‎ ‎【16题详解】‎ 根据上文A dog’s mind is only equal to that of a two-year-old baby。狗的思想只能和两岁的婴儿一样。可知选项G“然而，狗能够感知周围的一切。”与上文形成转折关系。故选G。‎ ‎【17题详解】‎ 根据下文They have an ability to sense sadness and are attached to troubled souls.他们有一种感知悲伤的能力。可知选项F“每次你心情不好的时候，你的狗都会知道。”与下文形成呼应关系，符合语境。故选F。‎ ‎【18题详解】‎ 根据下文They can easily tell when you’re playing with favorites. Whenever you spend more with other pets, your dog might sense it and feel uncomfortable.‎ ‎ 他们可以很容易地能够辨别你什么时候在与最喜欢的玩耍。无论何时你花更多的时间和其他宠物在一起时，你的狗都可能会感觉不舒服。Though they can’t say out how they feel, they will scratch, yawn or lick their mouths. 虽然他们不能说出自己的感受，但他们会抓挠、打哈欠或舔嘴。这些行为都表明了你的狗会知道它被忽视，可知选项A“当狗被忽视时，它们能理解。”符合语境。故选A。‎ ‎【19题详解】‎ 根据下文Research shows that dogs often sense their masters' responses in dangerous situations. If you fear something and choose to back away, chances are that your pet is going to do the same thing.研究表明狗在危险情况下通常能感觉主人的反应。如果你害怕某事并选择放弃，很可能你的宠物会做同样的事情。可知选项C“你将为你的宠物树立一个榜样。”符合语境。故选C。‎ ‎【20题详解】‎ 根据上文 We are all raised as respectable individuals who are taught to respect elders, obey the law and help out people in need from time to time. (我们都被教导要尊敬长者，遵守法律，不时帮助有困难的人。)所以选项E“然而，并不是所有人都认真对待这三件事。”与上文形成呼应关系，符合语境。故选E。‎ 第三部分 英语知识运用（共两节, 满分 40 分）‎ 第一节 完形填空（共 20 小题；每小题 1.5 分，满分 30 分） 阅读下面短文，掌握其大意，从短文后所给的四个选项（A、B、C 和 D）中，选出可以填入 空白处的最佳选项。‎ Noah and Ella is a couple who consider birthdays as a good chance to appreciate life.‎ When their daughter, Jessie,_____21_____ six in 2012, they invited friends and relatives to attend her birthday party.
