These can be of great value. LARGE FURNITURE The key to buying big items is to wait until the end of the day. By then, the sellers are wondering how they are going to get that huge sofa back into the house. PLASTIC AND WOODEN TOYS Many old-fashioned wooden toys are solid enough to be passed from generation to generation. Clean wooden and plastic toys with a mixture of bleach (漂白剂) or vinegar and hot water. But stay clear of stuffed animals, which are always hard to clean. BICYCLES AND SCOOTERS Bikes can be a great find, but it’s important to take them for a test drive before you buy. With scooters, if the frame is solid, you can often replace missing or worn parts (handlebar covers, brakes. wheels) for much less than the cost of new ones. BABY GEAR New parents want to get rid of out-grown baby swings, high chairs and strollers as soon as possible, making them a garage-sale staple. In case of future recalls, s make sure the model number is still visible. Don’t buy: second-hand car Seats ( the structure could have suffered from damage) and drop-side cribs(落地式婴儿床). 36. What can we learn from the passage? A. Sofa sellers are always confused how they can sell their items out. B. If the frame of the bike is solid, we can often replace anything missing or worn. C. Stuffed animals are not recommended for they are always difficult to clean. D. Car seats and drop-side cribs are always out-of-date and unfashionable. 解析：根据左上框：sellers are wondering how they are going to get thathuge sofa back into the house可知，A错；根据左下框：with scooters, if the frame issolid, you can often replace missing or worn parts可知，B错；根据右上框：stay clear of stuffed animals,which are always hard to clean，stay clear of同义替换为 not recommended，C正确；根据右下框：the structure could havesuffered from damage可知，D错。故选C。 答案：C 37. How does the writer recommend finds to buyers? A. By introducing characteristics of items. B. By offering detailed descriptions. C. By telling different stories of the items. D. By comparing items with others. 解析：这题需要我们概括每幅图的独特之处，最后再把共同点总结出来。根据左上框： the key to buying items is towait，左下框：bikes can be a great find; with scooters, if the frame issolid, you can often replace missing or worn parts；右上框；wooden toys are solid；右下框： out-grown baby swings等，可以看出这都是在介绍特点。 答案：A B Fun is hard 10 have. Fun is a rare jewel. Somewhere along the line people got the modem idea that fur was there for the asking, that people deserved fun, that if we didn’t have a little fun every day, we would turn into puritans(清 教徒)， “Was it fun?” became the question that overshadowed all other questions. When the pleasure got to be the main thing, the fun fetish(迷恋) was sure to follow. Everything was supposed to be fun. If it wasn’t fun, then we were going to make it fun, or else. Think of all the things that got the reputation of being fun. Family outings were supposed to be fun. Education was supposed to be fun. Work was supposed to be fun. Walt Disney, church and staying fit were supposed to be fun. Fun got to be such a big thing that everybody started to look for more and more thrilling ways to supply it. One way was to step up the level of danger So that you could be sure that, no matter what, you would manage to have a little fun. Big occasions were supposed to be fun, such as Christmas, Thanksgiving and Easter. But we ended up going through every Big Event we ever celebrated, waiting for the fun to start. So I should tell you just in case you’re worried about your fun capacity while you are sitting around waiting for the fun to start, that not much is. I don’t mean to put a damper on things. I just mean we ought to treat fun reverently. It is a mystery. It cannot be caught like a virus. It cannot be trapped like an animal. When fun comes in on little dancing feet, we probably won’t be expecting it. In fact, I bet it comes when we’re doing our duty, our job. I remember one day, long ago, on which I had an especially good time. Pam Davis and I, aged 12, walked into a store that morning to buy some candy. She got her Bit-O-Honey. I got my malted milk balls, chocolate stars. Then we started back to her house. It was a long way to Pam’s house but every time we got weary, Pam would put her hand over her eyes, scan the horizon like a sailor and say, “We ought to reach home by nightfall,” at which point the two of us would laugh until we thought we couldn’t stand it another minute. Then after we got calm, she’d say it again. You should have been there. It was the kind of day and friendship and occasion that made me deeply regretful that I had to grow up. It is fun. 38. What does the author mainly want to talk about in this passage? A. The definition of fun. B. The importance of fun. C. The best way to find fun. D. The common occasions to find fun. 解析：第一题就问文章主旨，需要我们通读全文，同时我们还可以通过反推的方式得 出答案。A：文章只在前几段提到了，这是以偏概全，不选；B：如果要写importance大概 会提到对…的好处，文章几乎没有提到，不选；C：分析文章每段的前几句和最后一句，第 四段： we were going to make it fun；第五段：all the things that got the reputation of being fun； 第七段：it comes when we’re doing our duty, our job；第八段：列举了我个人与朋友的事例， 最后第九段论证了：it was fun，可知，文章是在讲寻找fun的方式，C符合；D的common occasions与第七段big occasions矛盾，不选。故选C。 答案：C 39. When the author tells us to “treat fun reverently”, she is encouraging us to . A. look forward to having fun B. show great respect for fun C. have fun less frequently D. teach others how to have fun6 解析：猜测短语意思，需要结合上下文，首先划线部分前面有些人you’re worried about your funcapacity while you are sitting around waiting for the fun to start，又根据treat“对待”提 示，这些是not treat fun with respect的表现；I don’t mean to put a damper on things, I just mean weought to…这说明作者在否定前面这些人的表现；再看划线部分后面it cannot be caught like avirus, it cannot be trapped like animal，更加确定了作者在这里提倡尊重fun，故选B。 答案：B 40. Who would benefit most from the article? A. Those who have great fun in big occasions. B. Those who prefer friendship to having fun. C. Those who are worried about not having fun. D. Those who regret having grown up. 解析：这道题可以结合 58 题一起做。ABD都是文章中的一部分，过于以偏概全。A： 除了big occasion以外还有倒数第二段的作者个人事例即common occasion；B：prefer这个情 感太过绝对，第七段提到了it comes when we’re doing ourduty, our job，不单单是friendship； D在文章前几段都没有提到过，只有倒数第二段的作者个人事提到，而且grow up和文章主 题也不符合，故选C。 答案：C C An eclipse happens when one heavenly body such as a moon or planet passes into the shadow of another heavenly body. There are two types of eclipses on Earth: lunar eclipses and solar eclipses. The moon orbits Earth and, at the same time, Earth orbits the sun. Sometimes Earth moves between the sun and the moon. When this happens, Earth blocks the light from the sun. This is an eclipse of the moon—a lunar eclipse. A lunar eclipse can occur only when the moon is full and can be seen from Earth at night. There are two types of lunar eclipses: total lunar eclipses and partial lunar eclipses. A total lunar eclipse occurs when the moon and the sun are on exact opposite sides of Earth. The moon is in Earth’s shadow and the sunlight passes through Earth’s atmosphere, which causes Earth’s atmosphere to filter or block out most of the blue light. However, a partial lunar eclipse happens when only a part of the moon enters Earth’s shadow. What people see from Earth during a partial lunar eclipse depends on how the sun, Earth and moon are lined up. A lunar eclipse usually lasts for a few hours. At least two partial lunar eclipses happen every year, but total lunar eclipses are rare. It is safe to look directly at a lunar eclipse although a pair of binoculars can certainly help the viewer appreciate the beauty of this phenomenon. Sometimes when the moon orbits Earth, it moves between the sun and Earth. When this happens, the moon blocks the light of the sun from reaching Earth. This causes an eclipse of the sun, or solar eclipse. During a solar eclipse, the moon casts a shadow onto Earth. There are three types of solar eclipses: total solar eclipses, partial solar eclipses and annular eclipses(日环食). During a solar eclipse, the moon casts two shadows on Earth. Solar eclipses happen once every 18 months. Unlike lunar eclipses, solar eclipses only last for a few minutes Scientists use solar eclipses as an opportunity to study the sun’s corona(日冕). The corona is the sun’s top layer. During an annular eclipse, NASA (the U. S. space agency) uses ground and space instruments to view the corona when the moon blocks the sun’s glare. The sudden blocking of the sun during an eclipse reduces the light and changes the temperature on the ground. This creates conditions that can affect local weather and animal behavior. It’s important to never look directly at the sun—it can permanently damage your eyes! Solar radiation that occurs during an eclipse of the Sun can cause a form of burns of one’s eyes known as eclipse blindness. In fact, the only way to safely view a solar eclipse is by using specially-designed equipment. 41. What can we know about “a lunar eclipse”? A. I may create conditions that can affect local weather and animal behavior. B. It can be seen when the moon and the sun are on exact opposite sides of Earth. C. It usually happens once every 18 months and only lasts for a few minutes each time. D. It happens when the moon blocks the light from the sun, which causes the moon to shine. 解析：A选项原文并没有体现，无中生有。B选项指的是月全食，月全食也是月食中的 一种情况，所以说能在太阳月亮正好在地球两边的情况下看到月食是正确的。C选项指的是 日食的情况，错误。D选项也指的是日食，所以错误。 答案：B 42. Which of the following cam replace the underlined word “glare”? A. heat B. shadow C. shine D. radiation 解析：单词量大的同学知道glare有强光的意思，所以显然选择C。如果不知道glare的意 思的话，文中后一句“reduces the light and changesthe temperature”因为动词用的是block， 是遮挡的意思，所以应该是对应后文的light。所以此处应该选择C shine。 答案：C 43. It can be inferred from the passage that__________. A. people will experience a temperature drop when lunar eclipses happen B. eclipses are the result of the shadow cast by the moon onto Earth C. total lunar eclipses are more difficult to observe than other types of lunar eclipses D. there can be eclipses even if the three heavenly bodies are not exactly lined up 解析：文中“reduces the light and changes the temperature”指的是日食而不是月食，所 以A选项错误。B选项只指的是日食，而月食是地球在月球上的投影。C选项无中生有。原 文说月全食更罕见，但不是更难观察。 答案：D 44. Why is it safer to watch a lunar eclipse than a solar eclipse? A. Because moonlight is not as strong as sunlight. B. Because a lunar eclipse lasts longer than a solar eclipse. C. Because special equipment can be employed to view a lunar eclipse. D. Because a lunar eclipse has much more steady light than solar eclipse. 解析：本题结合常识使用排除法。B选项月食的时间更长和能够安全的观察毫无关联， 因此是错误的。C选项错误。原文中说观察月食只需要使用双筒望远镜就可以，而观察日食 需要特殊的设备。D选项无中生有，文中没有提及月食日食的光是否稳定。而根据常识可以 知道，月亮的光来自太阳光的反射。太阳光线能够直接灼伤眼睛，所以显然是太阳光线太 强以至于不能安全的观察。答案选A。 答案：A D The eyeliner makes the dark circles less pronounced. The lipstick hides the trembling. The ponytail (马尾辫) masks missing patches of hair. I might look a bit thinner, but everyone will ask about my new diet. One hour of preparation and I look like myself. One hour out of 24. Sometimes I wonder if it’s worth it—wasting a twenty-fourth of my day on a lie. Checking my makeup one last time, I slip on a cute pair of flats- heels are too dangerous with shaky legs—and grab my Hollister bag. Walking downstairs, I breathe in the sweet smell of waffles and juice. “Morning, Mom,” I call. “Moring, baby,” she sings. “Did you sleep well?” “Better than I have been.” She sighs, and her eyes look a hundred years old for a minute. “Any improvement is good,” she says half-heartedly. “Of course.” “I made waffles.” “Thanks, Mom. Smells delicious.” I sit at the table and she hands me a plate. The thought of all that food turns my stomach, but I force a smile and thank my mother again. She busies herself at the sink and fills the silence with chatter. When she turns around, she takes in the waffles still on my plate, only missing a few bites. I smile apologetically. “I’m not very hungry this morning.” “You’ll need your strength for this afternoon. Morrison will wait for you.” She bites her lip. “I packed your lunch.” “I’m 18, Mom. I can pack my own lunch. You have more important things to do. ” She reaches for the paper bag. “But now I know you’ll have something to eat. And you need to eat, okay? You have to keep your strength up.” Sighing, I take the bag. I know this peanut butter and jelly sandwich won’t be eaten, not any more than the one yesterday or the day before. And even if I do eat it, I’ll just throw it up later. “Honey, have you thought about what I said the other day?” she asks. I remain silent. “Sweetheart, you can’t hide the secret forever. Eventually you’re going to miss school and people will start asking questions.” “Mom, I have two months left of high school. I can make it till then. I’m class president. I was voted ‘Most popular’, ‘Best smile’ and ‘Most likely to succeed’. I’m the girl who’s got it all together. People don’t want to know that the girl w ho’s got it all together doesn’t have it all together. People don’t want to know that girl is to be parted!” “Honey, don’t say that. You’re not. . .” “Yes, I am. You heard Dr. Morrison. I have maybe a year left. But that means I can graduate and then never see those people again. I’ ll depart and they’ll feel sorry for me, but at least I won’t have to tolerate their pity.” “But. . .” she tries to interrupt. “Mom, listen to me. I don’t want to be the girl everyone looks at and whispers, ‘Look at her. Poor thing. She has cancer. ‘I can’t handle that. I want to be normal. Just for these last two months.” “Okay,” she whispers. “Okay. Just remember, it’s okay if you don’t have it all together. Sometimes things just fall apart and there’s nothing we can do.” “Thanks, Mom.” I grab my bag and lunch and kiss her on the check. “①” “②” she replies. This exchange, once taken for granted, is now a vital part of every morning, every afternoon, and every night. Three little words, followed by four more, have come to mean more than an entire conversation. They bridge all gaps and disagreements, because we both know there is now a restricted number left. Keys in hand, I open the door and blink(眨眼)in the early morning sun. Perfect. 45. The underlined word “half-heartedly” implies___________. A. the mom is worried about her daughter’s mood B. the mom believes her daughter slept well last night C. the mom is too busy doing her housework a that time D. the mom knows there is no improvement in her daughter’s health 解析：女儿的回答是从来没有这么好过。但是母亲却一声长叹，仿佛老了一百岁（“she signs, and her eyes look ahundred years old for a minute”）显然母亲已经看透了事情的真相， 知道女儿的身体正在一天天的恶化，所以“half-heatedly”代表着母亲知道女儿的健康没有 得到一点的好转，答案选D。 答案：D 46. Why doesn’t the girl want to eat the food Mom packs for her lunch? A. Because she doesn’t like the smell of the food. B. Because she is on a diet to lose some weight. C. Because she’s tired of the same food every day. D. Because eating the food makes her sick. 解析：文中提及“the thought of all that food turns my stomach”想到食物就会让她恶心， “and even if I do eat it, I’ll just throw it up later”就算我吃下去了也会很快的吐掉。所以答案 选D，吃食物会让她觉得恶心。 答案：D 47. What is the main reason the girl keeps her secret? A. She doesn’t want to die so soon. B. She doesn’t want her mom to be sad. C. She doesn’t want people to have pity on her. D. She doesn’t want to lose her popularity at school. 解析：文中提及“but at least I won’t have to tolerate their pity” “I don’twant to be the girl everyone looks at and whispers‘Look at her. Poor thing. She has cancer’I can’t handle that”所 以作者所不能容忍的是别人对她的命运而感到可惜，为她而觉得可惜。所以答案选C。其中 D答案有迷惑性，失去人气只是表象，正是因为作者是如此优秀的女孩子，当别人知道她得 了癌症才会更加觉得可惜，作者所不能容忍的正是那一种可惜，所以pity才是核心。答案选 C。 答案：C 48. Which of the following words can best describe the girl? A. Considerate and positive. B. Optimistic but mean. C. Considerate but stubborn. D. Optimistic and dependent. 解析：排除法。B选项mean 刻薄的，错误。C选项stubborn 固执的，错误。D选项dependent 依赖的，错误。A选项中considerate 体贴的，作者照顾他人的感受，不希望他人为自己难过， 可见其体贴。Positive积极的，作者得了癌症以后仍然每天享受着最后的生活而没有被癌症 所击垮，可见其积极。 答案：A 49. What sentences can be appropriate for ① and ②? A. “See you, Mom.” ; “Have a good day. ” B. “Take care, Mom.”; “You too, my angel.” C. “I love you.” ; “I love you, too.” D. “I’ll miss you.”; “I’ll miss you, too.” 解析：因为是每天早上，中午和晚上都要重复。所以A选项的再见不合适。B选项的照 顾好自己也不适合每天说三次。至于D，因为这是曾经视为理所当然的事情，而现在无比珍 惜。但是曾经天天说三次想念不合常理，所以D选项也不对。而C选项最契合文章主题，一 个love you，道出了一切的爱与眷恋。所以答案选择C。 答案：C 50. What is the best title for the passage? A. NORMAL B. PERFECT C. HOPEFUL D. HEALTHY 解析：最后一段作者说“Keys in hand, I open the doorand blink in the early morning sun. Perfect.”所以用PERFECT作为标题可以与末段呼应，而且perfect能表现出作者积极的心态。 A 的normal不如perfect，normal所能指代的内容也不清晰。C hopeful 和 D healthy 都过于 沉重，作者虽然身患癌症，但是仍然乐观向上的对待每一天，作者接受自己癌症的现实也 接受死亡的结局，所以hopeful和healthy都不合适。 答案：B 第二卷（非选择题，共两大题，35 分） 第四部分：任务型阅读（共 10 小题: 每小题 1 分，满分 10 分） 请认真阅读下列短文，并根据所读内容在文章后表格中的空格里填入一个最恰当的单 词。注意：每个空格只填 1 个单词。 Sorry seems to be the hardest word. So sang Elton John on one of his biggest 1970s hits—but not every public figure seems to find it so tough to let out that powerful five-letter word. In recent months varieties of public figures, from politicians, to Hollywood actors and YouTube stars have all publicly expressed regrets. But with floods of regrets on the airwaves, just how can we tell a forced apology from a heartfelt expression? In its purest form, saying sorry should be an “act of regrets, a realization that something you have said or done has hurt someone and you want to repair it”, says psychologist Geraldine Joaquim. Made early, a sincere apology can be hugely beneficial and can “relieve the tension and takes the wind out of an accuser’s sails”, she says. A need to say sorry can arise in someone’s public life and equally at home with their family and friends but, whatever the environment, how well it is received depends on how personalized it feels. From businesses, governments and organizations, a scripted response will fail to resonate(引 起共鸣) as it will not convey empathy (同理心) and sympathy. Whether online or in person, the timing and choice of language in an apology are decisive factors. “It is important to show that you understand and sympathize,” says Martin Stone, of PR agency Tank, “It is vital that any business or individual making an apology understands the focus—is it sorry for the way it’s acted or is it sorry that the complainant feels the way they do?” Performed apologies always have a sense of being “acted out”, and are often accompanied by too many theatrical gestures. If sincere, the person making the apology will be looking for listening clues to see if they are being understood, such as eye contact and facial expressions. They will provide “humbling (谦卑的) signals”, such as a lowered head, to indicate regrets. It is also important to avoid irresponsible statements or promises that can’t be kept. “Don’t say that you’ll ensure that this will not happen again if you’re not confident it won’t. It could come back to bite you,” Stone explains. Equally, the use of “but” can hugely change the tone of an apology. As Stone points out. “I’m sorry but. . . It sounds like you are making excuses and aren’t actually taking any form of responsibility. It may be three letters but it can instantly make an apology seem hollow.” passage outline Detailed information Does sorry seem to be the most difficult word?

The sharp decline in reading scores is an evident example. Obviously, the author of the caricature is worried about the phenomenon. Readers, especially parents, are warned of their children’s “sliding down”. Students are therefore advised to do some reading every day. From my perspective, it’s important not to fall into the pitfall of “summer slide”. Although vocations are meant for a rest to us students, it should not be at the expense of our study. We should respond to the author’s call to do daily reading. Anyway, abandoning ourselves in reading is actually another way of leisure. In addition, we’d better ask our parents to create an academic ground for us, like reading together with us, etc. With the joint efforts of both, the summer slide can surely be avoided. Possible version2: According to the caricature, summer slide refers to the academic loss to students who prefer playing to learning during summer holidays. The sharp decline in reading scores is an evident example. Obviously, the author of the caricature is worried about the phenomenon. Readers, especially parents, are warned of their children’s “sliding down”. Students are therefore advised to do some reading every day. Personally I don’t subscribe to the author’s idea. Although “summer slide” does exist, it doesn’t mean our holidays should be deprived of in such a name. Otherwise, what is the point of holidays? We students, and even parents, have long suffered from heavy burden of study. Taking a rest both physically and mentally is actually refreshing our mind for later improvement, which is in its nature a better way to avoid “summer slide”. Therefore, doing compulsory daily reading in summer holidays is nothing but a bad idea to me.
