Sit on the grass and enjoy the latest movies or classics from the past under the stars at Australia’s best and largest outdoor cinema.可知，月光电影院是在澳大利亚最好的最大的户外电影院，坐在草地上，在星光下欣赏最新电影或过去的经典作品，可知是户外的活动。因此今晚的户外活动有两个。故选B项。‎ B One of my wonderful memories is about a Christmas gift.Unlike other gifts, it came without wrap(包装).‎ On September11th.1958.Mum gave birth to Richard.After she brought him home from hospital, she put him in my lap, saying."I promised you a gift, and here it is." What an honor! I turned four a month earlier and none of my friends had such a baby doll of their own.I played with it day and night.I sang to it.I told it stories.1 told it over and over how much I loved it!‎ One morning, however, I found its bed empty.My doll was gone! I cried for it.Mum wept and told me that the poor little thing had been sent to a hospital.It had a fever.For several days, I heard Mum and Dad whispering such words as "hopeless", "pitiful", and "dying", which sounded ominous.‎ Christmas was coming."Don’t expect any presents this year." Dad said, pointing at the socks I hung in the living room."If your baby brother lives, that'll be Christmas enough." As he spoke, his eyes filled with tears.I'd never seen him cry before.‎ The phone rang early on Christmas morning.Dad jumped out of bed to answer it.From my bedroom I heard him say."What? He's all right?" He hung up and shouted upstairs."The hospital said we can bring Richard home!" "Thank God.'" I heard Mum cry.‎ From the upstairs window, I watched my parents rush out to the car.I had never seen them ‎ happy.And I was also full of joy.What a wonderful day! My baby doll would be home.I downstairs.My sacks still hung there flat.But I knew they were not empty; they were filled with love!‎ ‎4. What happened to the author on September 11 1958?‎ A. He got a baby brother B. He got a Christmas gift C. He became four years old D. He received a doll ‎5. What does the underlined word “ominous” in Paragraph 3 probably mean?‎ A. Impossible. B. Boring C. Difficult D. Fearful ‎6. Which word can best describe the feeling of the father when Christmas was coming?‎ A. Excitement. B. Happiness. C. Sadness. D. Disappointment.‎ ‎7. What is the passage mainly about?‎ A. A sad Christmas day B. Life with a lovely baby C. A special Christmas gift D. Memories of a happy family ‎【答案】4. A 5. D 6. C 7. C ‎【4题详解】‎ 细节理解题。根据第二段“On September11th.1958.Mum gave birth to Richard...she put him in my lap, saying."I promised you a gift, and here it is."”可知，1958年9月11日，妈妈生下了理查德……她把他放在我膝上，说：“我答应给你一份礼物，就在这儿。所以作者在1958年9月11日有了一个弟弟。故选A项。‎ ‎【5题详解】‎ 词句猜测题。根据“Mum and Dad whispering such words as "hopeless", "pitiful", and "dying"”可知，作者听到爸爸妈妈小声地提到了“不抱希望的”、“可怜的”、“临死的”等字眼，这让作者有一种不详的预感，作者担心弟弟Richard会出事。所以通过上下文的语境可以判断出，第3段中带下划线的"ominous"一词可能是fearful“令人恐惧的”的意思。故选D项。‎ ‎【6题详解】‎ 推理判断题。根据第四段“ As he spoke, his eyes filled with tears.I'd never seen him cry ‎ before.”可知，作者的父亲一边说着，眼里充满了泪水。作者以前从未见过父亲哭过。所以通过关键词“filled with tears”可以判断出父亲因为Richard的病情而变得很难过。故选C项。‎ ‎【7题详解】‎ 主旨大意题。根据第一段“One of my wonderful memories is about a Christmas gift.”可知，文章讲的是作者的一段精彩的记忆，这段记忆是关于他的弟弟Richard的，再根据“a Christmas gift. Unlike other gifts”可知，短文主要讲的是一份特别的礼物。故选C项。‎ C Failure is probably the most exhausting experience a person ever has. There is nothing more tiring than not succeeding.‎ We experience this tiredness in two ways: as start-up fatigue (疲惫) and performance fatigue. In the former case, we keep putting off a task because it has either too boring or too difficult. And the longer we delay it, the more tired we feel.‎ Such start-up fatigue is very real, even if not actually physical, not something in our muscles and bones. The solution is obvious though perhaps not easy to apply: always handle the most difficult job first.‎ Years ago, I was asked to write 102 essays on the great ideas of some famous authors. Applying my own rule, I determined to write them in alphabetical order, never letting myself leave out a tough idea. And I always started the day’s work with the difficult task of essay-writing. Experience proved that the rule works.‎ Performance fatigue is more difficult to handle. Though willing to get started, we cannot seem to do the job right. Its difficulties appear so great that, however hard we work, we fail again and again. In such a situation, I work as hard as I can—then let the unconscious take over.‎ When planning Encyclopedia Britannica( 《大英百科全书》), I had to create a table of contents based on the topics of its articles. Nothing like this had ever been done before, and day after day I kept coming up with solutions, but none of them worked. My fatigue became almost unbearable.‎ One day, mentally exhausted, I wrote down all the reasons why this problem could not be solved. I tried to convince myself that the trouble was with the problem itself, not with me. Relived, I sat back in an easy chair and fell asleep.‎ An hour later, I woke up suddenly with the solution clearly in mind. In the weeks that ‎ followed, the solution which had come up in my unconscious mind proved correct at every step. Though I worked as hard as before, I felt no fatigue. Success was now as exciting as failure had been depressing.‎ Human beings, I believe, must try to succeed. Success, then, means never feeling tired.‎ ‎8. People with start-up fatigue are most likely to .‎ A. work hard B. delay tasks C. seek help D. accept failure ‎9. On what occasion does a person probably suffer from performance fatigue?‎ A. Before starting a difficult task.‎ B. After finding a way out.‎ C. If the job is rather boring.‎ D. When all the solutions fail.‎ ‎10. According to the author, the unconscious mind may help us .‎ A. find the right solution B. get some nice sleep C. gain complete relief D. ignore mental problems ‎11. What could be the best title for the passage?‎ A Success Is Built upon Failure B. How to Handle Performance Fatigue C. Getting over Fatigue: A Way to Success D. Fatigue: An Early Sign of Health Problems ‎【答案】8. B 9. D 10. A 11. C ‎【8题详解】‎ 细节理解题。根据文章第二段最后一句the longer we delay it, the more tired we feel可知，开始性疲劳是因为我们一直在拖延任务，而且我们拖延得越久，我们就会越觉得疲惫。有开始性疲劳最有可能推迟任务。故选B。‎ ‎【9题详解】‎ 细节理解题。根据第五段第二句Its difficulties appear so great that, however hard we work, we fail again and again. In such a situation, I work as hard as I can—then let the unconscious take over 可推断，能力型疲劳是无论我们工作的多艰辛，但是我们还是一遍又一遍的失败，故，当所有的解决办法都失败的时候，一个人会感到能力型疲劳。A项意为：当一个人开始一项困难的任务之前。B项意为：在找到解决办法之后。C项意为：如果这个工作相当无聊。均不符合文意。故选D。‎ ‎【10题详解】‎ 细节理解题。根据倒数第二段第一句An hour later, I woke up suddenly with the solution clearly in mind. In the weeks that followed, the solution which had come up in my unconscious mind proved correct at every step在“我”精疲力竭睡了一觉之后，我的脑海里清晰地出现了一个解决办法。故这种潜意识有助于找到解决办法。故选A。‎ ‎【11题详解】‎ 主旨大意题。本文主要针对两种不同类型的疲劳，作者给出了解释和解决办法并通过自己的例子给出了证明。第一段和第二段是总领全文段落，引出两种不同的疲劳。第三段和第四段是对于“开始性疲劳”给出的定义，解决方法和自身的经历。第五段到第八段是对于“能力型疲劳”给出的定义，解决方案和自身经历。最后一段对文章中心的升华。由此可知，文章是关于克服疲劳，走向成功的文章。A项意为：成功建立与失败之上。B项意为：怎样处理能力型疲劳。C项意为：克服疲劳是走向成功方法。D项意为：疲劳是健康问题的早期信号。均不符合文意，故选C。‎ D If you’re DIY-minded, you can build your own solar power system. In some cases, you can even build your own solar panels (电池板), although the amount that you can effectively DIY home solar depends on how much you want to power. Making your own solar panel is a time-consuming process and requires some electrical skills. However, it can also be very rewarding-learning to build your own panel is a great way to understand how solarelectricity is generated.‎ Before you can build your own solar panels, you first need to understand how solar cells generate electricity. Once you’ve bought individual solar cells (they can be purchased online), the basic process for building your own solar panel goes like this: Prepare the backing for your panel. Many DIY solar panel builders prefer to use a wooden board as the base for their solar cell. You’ll need to drill holes in the board so that the wires for each cell can pass through. Wire your solar cells together. This requires some experience with electrical work. Use a soldering iron (烙铁) to attach wire to the solar cells and then link each of the cells together. Attach cells to your backing.‎ ‎ If possible, attach each solar cell to the backing individually. This makes it easier to replace a single cell in the event that becomes damaged or is not operating properly.‎ At this point you have a functional solar panel that can produce electricity when the sun shines. However, a solar panel by itself is not useful. If you are trying to generate electricity to power devices in your home, you need to pair your panel with an inverter (换流器) that will turn direct current (DC) power from the sun into the alternating current (AC) power used in most modern electronic devices.‎ ‎12. What does the author think of building DIY solar panel in the first paragraph?‎ A. It is easy. B. It is necessary. C. It is common D. It is worthwhile ‎13. What’s the first step of building your own solar panels?‎ A. Master the advanced knowledge- of management.‎ B. Buy individual solar cells.‎ C. Prepare the backing for your panel.‎ D. Drill holes in the wooden board.‎ ‎14. Why are solar cells connected to the wooden board separately?‎ A. To produce more power.‎ B. To substitute damaged cells easily.‎ C To attach cells to the backing tightly.‎ D. To pass through the wooden board easily.‎ ‎15. What can be inferred from the text?‎ A. People with electrical skills have advantages over those without in DIY solar panels.‎ B. A functional solar panel can give power to your home devices directly.‎ C. How to pair an inverter depends on how much you want to power.‎ D. a wooden board is a must for your own solar panels.‎ ‎【答案】12. D 13. B 14. B 15. A ‎【12题详解】‎ 推理判断题。根据文章第一段最后一句 However, it can also be very rewarding-learning to build your own panel, which is a great way to understand how electricity is generated 可知，自己制作太阳能电池板是非常值得且有教育意义的，你可以借此理解发电原理。故D项符合题意。故正确答案为D。‎ ‎【13题详解】‎ 细节理解题。根据文章第二段第二句中的 Once you've bought individual solar cells (they can be purchased online), the basic process for building your own solar panel goes like this 可知，购买一些单个的光伏电池是制作太阳能板的第一步。故正确答案为B。‎ ‎【14题详解】‎ 细节理解题。根据文章第二段最后两句 If possible, attach each solar cell to the backing individually. This makes it easier to replace a single cell in the event that becomes damaged or is not operating properly 可知，将每个光伏电池单独连接到背板上，这样可以更轻松地替换单个损坏的电池。故正确答案为B。‎ ‎【15题详解】‎ 推理判断题。根据文章第二段第六句 This requires some experience for electrical work 可知，自制太阳能板需要一些电工经验。故拥有电工技能的人在自制太阳能板时更占优势，A项正确。B项，“运作的太阳能板可以直接给家电供电”。根据文章最后一段最后一句 If you are trying to generate electricity to power devices in your home, you need to pair your panel with inverter(转换器) that will turn direct current(DC) power from the sun into alternating current(AC) power used in most electronic devices 可知，若要用太阳能板给电器供电，需要配置转换器将产生的直流电转化为大多数电器可以使用的交流电，故B项错误。C项，“如何配置转换器取决于你想要发多少电”。文中只提及转换器用于将直流电转换成交流电，但未提及如何配置转换器。故C项错误。D项，“自制太阳能板时必须使用木板”。根据文章第二段第三句 Many DIY solar panel builders prefer to use a wooden board as the base for their solar cells 可知，很多人在自制太阳能板时偏好使用木板，但并非必须要使用木板。故D项错误。故正确答案为A。‎ 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白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。‎ Perhaps you’ve heard the old saying “curiosity killed the cat.” It’s a phrase that’s often used to warn people—especially children—not to ask too many questions. ___16___ In fact, research has shown that curiosity is just as important as intelligence in determining how well students do in school.‎ Curiosity can also lead us to make unexpected discoveries, bring excitement into our lives, ‎ and open up new possibilities. ___17___ For example, one day in 1831, Michael Faraday was playing around with a coil(线圈) and a magnet(磁铁) when he suddenly saw how he could produce an electrical current. At first, it wasn’t clear what use this would have, but it actually made electricity available for use in technology, and so changed the world.‎ ‎___18___On one level, this is because technology has become so advanced that many of us are unable to think too deeply about how exactly things work anymore. While it may be possible for a curious teenager to take a toaster apart and get some sense of how it works, how much do you understand about what happens when you type a website address into a browser? Where does your grasp of technology end and the magic begin for you?‎ In addition to this, there’s the fact that we all now connect so deeply with technology, particularly with our phones. The more we stare at our screens, the less we talk to other people directly. ___19___Then we feel we know enough about a person not to need to engage further with them.‎ The final—and perhaps most worrying—way in which technology stops us from asking more has to do with algorithms, the processes followed by computers. As we increasingly get our news via social media, algorithms find out what we like and push more of the same back to us. ___20___Perhaps the real key to developing curiosity in the 21st century, then, is to rely less on the tech tools of our age.‎ A. It is still not known why learning gives us such pleasure.‎ B. We are always encouraged to challenge our pre-existing beliefs.‎ C. Yet it’s widely agreed that curiosity actually makes learning more effective.‎ D. All too often we accept the images of people that social media provides us with.‎ E. However, curiosity is currently under the biggest threat, coming from technology.‎ F. In science, basic curiosity-driven research can have unexpected important benefits.‎ G. That means we end up inside our own little bubbles, no longer coming across new ideas.‎ ‎【答案】16. C 17. F 18. E 19. D 20. G ‎【16题详解】‎ 上文提示“也许你听过‘好奇害死猫’这句老话。这句话经常用来警告人们——尤其是孩子们——不要问太多问题。”再根据下文提示“事实上，研究表明，在决定学生在学校表现如何方面，好奇心和智力同样重要。”承接上下文，C项Yet it’s widely agreed that curiosity ‎ actually makes learning more effective.（然而，人们普遍认为好奇心确实能让学习更有效。）切题。故选C。‎ ‎【17题详解】‎ 上文提示“好奇心还能引导我们做出意想不到的发现，给我们的生活带来兴奋，并打开新的可能性。”承接上文，F项In science, basic curiosity-driven research can have unexpected important benefits.（在科学上，以好奇心为基础的研究可以带来意想不到的重要好处。）切题。故选F。‎ ‎【18题详解】‎ 下文提示“在某种程度上，这是因为技术已经变得如此先进，以至于我们中的许多人无法再深入思考事物究竟是如何工作的。”承接下文，E项However, curiosity is currently under the biggest threat, coming from technology.（然而，好奇心目前面临的最大威胁来自科技。）切题。此处关键词是technology，故选E。‎ ‎【19题详解】‎ 上文提示“我们盯着屏幕看得越多，我们与他人直接交流的就越少。”再根据下文提示“然后我们觉得我们对一个人已经足够了解，不需要和他们进一步接触。”承接上下文，D项All too often we accept the images of people that social media provides us with.（我们常常接受社交媒体为我们提供的人物形象。）切题。故选D。‎ ‎【20题详解】‎ 上文提示“随着我们越来越多地通过社交媒体获取新闻，计算程序会弄清楚我们喜欢什么，然后把更多的信息反馈给我们。”再根据下文提示“因此，在21世纪培养好奇心的真正关键，或许是减少对我们这个时代技术工具的依赖。”承接上下文，G项That means we end up inside our own little bubbles, no longer coming across new ideas.（这意味着我们最终会陷入自己的小泡泡里，不再有新的想法。）切题。故选G。‎ 第三部分 英语知识运用（共两节，满分 45 分）‎ 第一节 (共 20 小题；每小题 1.5 分，满分 30 分）‎ 请认真阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的 A、B、C、D 四个选项中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。‎ For me personally, I could write for days about many different situations where adversity (逆境) ___21___my life. Now let me tell you one experience where I almost let adversity ___22___.‎ We had a glass studio, which was located 50 feet from our home. A couple of years ago we ‎ experienced an ___23___ winter; we had a lot of snow and ice. The ___24___ of the ice and snow ___25___ the roof on our studio, taking with it one of our sources of income. ___26___ it did fall down, we got on the roof and tried to___27___ the snow and ice, but when you have 5 feet of ice and temperatures of minus 20 Celsius, it was pretty ___28___ to do.‎ We had a partner come in to help us try to ___29___ the roof by supporting. In the end, there was ____30____ that could be done. The roof came down. We had moved a lot of our goods and tools from the studio ____31____ we lost a lot also: glass, kilns, workbenches, to name only a few of the items. It was a ____32____experience.‎ Here we were in the middle of winter with our studio collapsed. We couldn't work as we had almost ____33____ all the material in a building we were not using. We could have done one of two things: we could simply say that we can no longer ____34____ our glass business. Let me tell you that this was certainly a thought that ____35____ our mind. Or we could find a way to get our studio back up and running.‎ We picked the ____36____ option. We had a large barn that we were not using. So we renovated (翻新) the barn, ____37____ our working area and today we have a nicer studio than we ____38____ had. If the adversity we were ____39____ had not happened, we probably would ____40____ be working in the old studio — a studio that was less efficient.‎ ‎21.
