B 18. C 19. A 20. C ‎【解析】‎ ‎【原文】People collect stamps for many reasons. Some like the fun and excitement of finding an unusual or valuable stamp. In 1856, the post office in Guyana found that they had only a few stamps left. So they printed their own special 1-cent and 4-cent stamps and used them until the usual stamps arrived. In 1873, a schoolboy found the last one of those special 1-cent stamps. He sold it to a collector for a few dollars. In 1980, the same stamp was sold in New York for seven million dollars. Collectors also like stamps with mistakes, because they are sometimes very valuable. Usually, they are only used for a very short time. When the mistake is found, new stamps are made. There are not many stamps with mistakes, but many collectors would like to own one. That is why stamps with mistakes are so valuable. We can learn a lot from stamps. They can make school subjects interesting. Pictures about the history of different countries are shown on stamps. You can also find out about famous events and people.‎ 第二部分阅读理解(共两节，满分40分)‎ 第一节(共15小题；每小题2分，满分30分)‎ 阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出最佳选项。‎ A While my cousin and I were riding horses over the dry, grassy hills and swimming in the Navarro ‎ River, Mother, Grandma, Auntie Gert, and my elder cousins had begun the annual work of preparations for Thanksgiving on our farm, five months ahead of Thanksgiving.‎ By mid-July, the summer kitchen was running full steam. Peas were always the first to be processed. Everyone Grandma could get help from sat shelling(剥落) the peas into large pans, but as we wished we were out swimming. Then came the cherries. Mother packed them into jars, while Auntie Gert separated the riper cherries into a large pot to make delicious jam, which is my favorite. Peaches followed shortly. They were carefully washed, then skinned, halved and packed.‎ By fall, ropes of onions and garlic hung at the end of the shelves; apples, potatoes and pumpkins lined the floor.‎ With the coming of November rains, Grandma filled the remaining shelf space with coffee cans(罐) packed with her famous fruitcakes. The smell of spices, apples and bay leaves came into the house, announcing the Thanksgiving season.‎ The weekend before Thanksgiving, aunts, uncles, and cousins began to arrive. My uncles helped Grandpa catch up on repairs around the farm; my aunts baked pie and bread; and my cousins and I played card games in the front room, staying as close to the warm woodstove as possible. When the Thanksgiving dinner was ready, we’d all sit around the dining table, which extended into the front room. Grandpa would pray. And then it was time to enjoy the delicious food prepared months ago.‎ How I miss those simple happy old days!‎ ‎21. What does the author mainly intend to show in Paragraph 1?‎ A. Thanksgiving food was hard to prepare.‎ B. He loved riding horses with his cousins.‎ C. All his relatives lived together on the farm.‎ D. Preparations for Thanksgiving began early in his family.‎ ‎22. What did the writer do to help with the preparations in summer?‎ A. Wash peaches. B. Nothing. C. Pack cherries. D. Shell peas.‎ ‎23. The preparations for Thanksgiving include____.‎ ‎① making jam ② baking bread ‎③ doing repairs ④ making coffee A. ①②③ B. ①③④ C. ①②④ D. ②③④‎ ‎24. Why does the writer start almost each paragraph with a phrase expressing time?‎ A. To attract attention. B. To show the diversity of preparations.‎ C. To record activities. D. To stress the long period of preparations.‎ ‎25. How might the author feel about the family’s preparations for Thanksgiving?‎ A. They are challenging. B. They are worth the efforts.‎ C. They are troublesome. D. They are a waste of time.‎ ‎【答案】21. D 22. B 23. A 24. D 25. B ‎【解析】‎ 本文是记叙文，讲述了作者的家人在感恩节前五个月就开始了每年的感恩节准备工作。几个月的忙碌之后，在感恩节那天，一家人其乐融融地坐着一起享受感恩节晚餐。‎ 作者非常怀念这些简单而又快乐的时光。‎ ‎【21题详解】‎ 推理判断题。根据第一段中“Mother, Grandma, Auntie Gert, and my elder cousins had begun the annual work of preparations for Thanksgiving on our farm, five months ahead of Thanksgiving”可知，第一段叙述作者的家人在感恩节前五个月就开始为一年一度的感恩节作准备。结合下文可知，在本段作者主要目的是感恩节的准备工作在他家很早就开始了。故选D项。‎ ‎【22题详解】‎ 细节理解题。根据第一段中“While my cousin and I were riding horses over the dry, grassy hills and swimming in the Navarro River”和第二段在“but as we wished we were out swimming”可知，在家人忙着为感恩节做准备时，作者和表兄妹一起出去游泳、骑马，不做什么事。故选B项。‎ ‎【23题详解】‎ 细节理解题。根据第三段中提到“Auntie Gert separated the riper cherries into a large pot to make delicious jam”阿姨制作樱桃酱，第五段中提到“my aunts baked pie and bread”，阿姨们烤馅饼和面包；第五段中还提到“My uncles helped Grandpa catch up on repairs around the farm”，作者的叔叔们和爷爷做一些农场上的修理工作。因此感恩节的准备工作包括 制作樱桃酱、烘烤面包、维修农场等工作。故选A项。‎ ‎【24题详解】‎ 推理判断题。作者在第一段中提到“…begun the annual work of preparations for Thanksgiving on our farm, five months ahead of Thanksgiving”，在感恩节前五个月就开始准备；然后在每一段开头都提到时间，“By mid-July…By fall….November rains… The weekend before Thanksgiving ‎”，是为了强调一家人为感恩节准备的工作持续的时间长。故选D项。‎ ‎【25题详解】‎ 推理判断题。根据第五段中“then it was time to enjoy the delicious food prepared months ago”和文章最后一段“How I miss those simple happy old days!”可知，作者非常怀念那些日子，一家人一起忙碌着为感恩节做准备，然后在一起享受感恩节晚餐。因此可以推断，作者觉得他们的几个月的准备工作是值得的。故选B项。‎ B Elephants born without tusks(长牙) normally make up just 2 to 6 percent of the herd population. However, that is not the case at Mozambique’s Gorongosa National Park, where 33 percent of female elephants born after the country’s civil war ended in 1992 are tuskless. While that might be just a coincidence(巧合), Joyce Poole, an elephant behavior expert, has another theory.‎ The researcher thinks we may be witnessing an unnaturally evolution of the species due to the hunting of the elephants for their valuable tusks. Unlike our permanent teeth, tusks of elephants grow throughout the animal’s life, becoming longer and thicker with age. For decorative purposes, poachers usually first target older males due to their impressive tusks, and females are not spared either. As a result, in areas where hunting goes unchecked for long, the number of tuskless females increases. This allows them to gain a biological advantage, resulting in a larger than average population of female offspring (后代)with no tusks.‎ Poole believes this phenomenon explains the rise in the number of tuskless females at Gorongosa National Park. The researcher says before the war, the park was home to over 4,000 elephants. However, by the time the conflict ended in 1992, about 90 percent of the elephants had been slaughtered for tusks to help finance weapons and meat to feed the soldiers. Of the less than 200 survivors, over 50 percent of the females had no tusks. Hence, it is not surprising that the park’s tuskless elephant population has grown greatly.‎ So far, the hunting has largely influenced female elephants. Poole explains, “Very few males are tuskless because males require tusks for fighting. Without tusks, males have a much harder time breeding and do not pass on their genes(基因) as often as tusked ones.” If the hunting of males for tusks continues at this pace, it could result in a generation of elephants with much smaller tusks.‎ ‎26. How does the writer draw readers’ attention to the topic?‎ A. By comparing figures. B. By offering explanation. C. By giving an example. D. By ‎ introducing an expert.‎ ‎27. What might be the reason for the increase of tuskless females?‎ A. Illegal hunting. B. Pure coincidence.‎ C. Natural evolution. D. Effective protection.‎ ‎28. What does the underlined word “slaughtered” in Paragraph 3 mean?‎ A. Raised. B. Protected. C. Killed. D. Trained.‎ ‎29. What is the text mainly about?‎ A. The future of African elephants.‎ B. The protection of African elephants.‎ C. The increasing number of tuskless elephants.‎ D. The genetic consequence of hunting elephants.‎ ‎30. In which section of a newspaper may this text appear?‎ A. Health. B. Science. C. Education. D. Finance.‎ ‎【答案】26. A 27. A 28. C 29. D 30. B ‎【解析】‎ 本文是说明文。因为宝贵的象牙，大象被非法狩猎，这也导致它们的后代无象牙的大象数量超出了平均数量。‎ ‎【26题详解】‎ 推理判断题。在第一段中提到“Elephants born without tusks(长牙) normally make up just 2 to 6 percent of the herd population”和“33 percent of female elephants born after the country’s civil war ended in 1992 are tuskless”，出生时无象牙的大象占总数的2%至6%，而在莫桑比克的Gorongosa国家公园，雌象中有33%没有象牙。通过无象牙的大象的数据比较，引起大家对话题的关注。故选A项。‎ ‎【27题详解】‎ 细节理解题。根据第二段中“due to the hunting of the elephants for their valuable tusks”和“in areas where hunting goes unchecked for long, the number of tuskless females increases”可以推断，因为宝贵的象牙，大象被非法狩猎，导致无象牙的雌象数量增加。故选A项。‎ ‎【28题详解】‎ 词句推测题。根据划线词后面的“…for tusks to help finance weapons and meat to feed the soldiers”，因为象牙，那些大象被猎杀，以帮助资助武器，也为士兵提供肉类。因此可以推测 slaughter意思为“杀死”。故选C项。‎ ‎【29题详解】‎ 主旨大意题。根据第二段中“…gain a biological advantage, resulting in a larger than average population of female offspring (后代)with no tusks（这使得它们获得了生物学上的优势，导致雌象后代无象牙大象的数量超过平均数量）”和第四段中“If the hunting of males for tusks continues at this pace, it could result in a generation of elephants with much smaller tusks（如果雄性大象的猎杀继续以这样的速度进行，可能会产生象牙更小的一代大象）”可知，因为非法狩猎，大象失去象牙，导致它们后代无象牙或者象牙更小。文章是关于非法狩猎大象的遗传后果的。故选D项。‎ ‎【30题详解】‎ 推理判断题。本文说明了因为宝贵的象牙，对大象的非法狩猎，导致它们的后代无象牙的大象数量超出了平均数量。文章分析其中的生物学上的原因，因此文章内容是关于科学知识的。故选B项。‎ C The beautiful oceans that cover three-quarters of our planet are home to some of our most valuable natural resources. However, while our knowledge of outer space is quite wide, the same cannot be said about the deep waters, thanks to the fact that any attempts to monitor them have either been too awkward or too expensive. Now, California-based Liquid Robotics has come up with an invention that is both economical and easily used across the waters.‎ Called Wave Glides, the autonomous robot that resembles a surfboard consists of two interconnected sections - on the surface is a glider(滑翔机)fitted with solar panels, battery and sensors. Right below underwater is a navigation(航行) glider.‎ The robot travels at a snail’s pace gathering data. This data is quickly sorted by its solar-powered computer chips and then sent ashore for analysis. This robot contains no battery that needs recharging. It is a zero emission (排放)device that uses wave energy to push itself forward.‎ The company is working towards making the robot even more autonomous than it currently is. As it now stands, while the robot can sense a danger such as a ship or a shark, it does not have the ability to move away. Liquid Robotics wants to change that and program the robot so that it has the ability to move away from danger.‎ To encourage the general public to get involved with the informative data collected by Wave ‎ Glider, the company is planning to launch four of the robots on a yearlong trip across the Pacific. Two will head for Tokyo and two for Sydney. All the data they collect will be posted online and the person who comes up with the most innovative interpretation will be awarded a prize.‎ ‎31. What can we infer from Paragraph 1?‎ A. It costs less to explore the sea than outer space. B. Outer space has more resources than the oceans C. People do not have as much knowledge of oceans as space. D. Three quarters of natural resources come from the oceans.‎ ‎32. What do we know about Wave Glider?‎ A. It is eco-friendly. B. It can be used as a surfboard.‎ C. It’s shaped like a snail. D. It uses solar energy to move.‎ ‎33. What change is most likely to be expected of Wave Glider?‎ A. Traveling more quickly. B. Sensing danger autonomously.‎ C. Analyzing data underwater. D. Keeping itself away from danger.‎ ‎34. Why will four robots be launched on a yearlong trip?‎ A. To find more natural resources. B. To collect data around the world.‎ C. To get people informed of collected data. D. To test their ability to work underwater.‎ ‎35. What is the author’s purpose in writing the text?‎ A. To promote an online contest. B. To call on people to explore oceans.‎ C. To introduce a new invention. D. To share the data collected in oceans.‎ ‎【答案】31. C 32. A 33. D 34. C 35. C ‎【解析】‎ 本文是说明文。文章介绍了Liquid Robotics的一项既经济又易于在水中使用的发明 ——机器人 Wave Glides。它的设计很环保，可以在水中以蜗牛的速度行进，收集数据。‎ ‎【31题详解】‎ 推理判断题。根据第一段“However, while our knowledge of outer space is quite wide, the same cannot be said about the deep waters（然而，虽然我们对外层空间的了解相当广泛，但对深海却不能说同样的情况）”可知，人们对海洋深处的了解不及对太空的了解多。故选C项。‎ ‎【32题详解】‎ 推理判断题。根据第三段“This robot contains no battery that needs recharging. It is a zero emission ‎ (排放)device that uses wave energy to push itself forward（ 这个机器人没有电池需要充电。 它是一种零排放装置，利用波能推动自己前进）”可知，Wave Glides的设计很环保。故选A项。‎ ‎【33题详解】‎ 细节理解题。根据第四段“while the robot can sense a danger such as a ship or a shark, it does not have the ability to move away. Liquid Robotics wants to change that and program the robot so that it has the ability to move away from danger”可知，Wave Glider可以感觉到危险，但它没有能力移动。 液体机器人公司想改变这一点，对机器人进行编程，使其能够远离危险。故选D项。‎ ‎【34题详解】‎ 细节理解题。根据第五段“To encourage the general public to get involved with the informative data collected by Wave Glider”和“All the data they collect will be posted online and the person who comes up with the most innovative interpretation will be awarded a prize”可知，该公司计划推出四个机器人，进行为期一年的穿越太平洋之旅，然后将收集到的数据在网上公布，想出最创新解释的人将被授予奖品。其目的是为了鼓励公众参与，让公众了解 Wave Glider收集的数据。故选C项。‎ ‎【35题详解】‎ 推理判断题。根据第一段“Now, California-based Liquid Robotics has come up with an invention that is both economical and easily used across the waters”可知，该段提出Liquid Robotics的一项发明——水下机器人Wave Glides，下面几段接着介绍Wave Glides的设计、功能以及目前还存在的不足。因此文章是介绍一项新的发明。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白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。‎ We all want to grow up. However, many people don’t seem to understand that the physical growth isn’t the whole story. _____36_____ The big part is the maturing of the mind, judgment, thinking and self-control. This has always proven to be more difficult.‎ We measure maturity(成熟) in different ways. Birthdays are a common measure but not always a correct measure of maturity. _____37_____ However, this is also not always a right way of measuring real maturity.‎ So, what are the real aspects that determine whether one has grown up? One aspect is how a person spends his time. Those who waste their time in playing and watching television have hardly begun to grow. _____38_____‎ What a person thinks of others and how he treats others is also a sign of maturity or no maturity. _____39_____ He feels unhappy and feels that somehow others are using him. He has the idea that the world travels around him and for him and to satisfy him. He simply hasn’t grown up.‎ ‎_____40_____ We all have to make so many of them. However, some never learn to make decisions. Therefore, when they’re called upon to make decisions, they don’t know what to do.‎ Learning how to make decisions is such an important part of maturation.‎ A. A mature person has a good state of mind.‎ B. The immature person hates authority over him.‎ C. In fact, it isn’t even the most important part of growth.‎ D.

G ‎【解析】‎ ‎【分析】‎ 本文是说明文，文章介绍了如何衡量一个人是否成熟的几种方法。‎ ‎【36题详解】‎ 此题线索是代词指代。设空处前一句提到“the physical growth”；选项C意思为：事实上，它甚至不是增长中最重要部分。选项C中it指代前一句中的“the physical growth”。故选C项。‎ ‎【37题详解】‎ 该段的首句是主题句，是关于衡量成熟有不同的方法。选项F意思为：我们也可以判断一个高大强壮的人是一个成熟的人。选项F中also表示递进关系，也是谈论关于衡量一个人是否成熟的方法；judge与该段中多次出现的measure是同义词复现。故选F项。‎ ‎【38题详解】‎ 该段是谈论从如何利用时间的角度来衡量一个人是否成熟。设空处前一句谈到“那些浪费时间玩和看电视的人几乎没有开始成长”；选项E意思为：相反，那些以明智的方式利用时间的人正在成长。选项E中instead表示转折关系，与前一句是语义上形成对比。故选E项。‎ ‎【39题详解】‎ 选项B意思为：不成熟的人讨厌对他的权威。设空处后“He feels unhappy and feels … He has the ‎ idea that the world travels around him and for him and to satisfy him”是对选项B的具体解释。“He simply hasn’t grown up”与immature同义。故选B项。‎ ‎【40题详解】‎ 此题是逻辑和原词复现线索。选项G意思为： 更重要的是，决策能力是成长中的另一个重要因素。该空位于段首，应该是本段的总起句；What’s more是表示递进关系；设空处后多次提到“make decisions”与选项G中 “make decisions”是原词复现。故选G项。‎ ‎【点睛】七选五做题技巧 ‎1. 重点阅读上下句 因为正确选项必定会与上下句之间语义衔接、逻辑通顺，解题时大多只看上句，或只看下句，就可基本确定答案。‎ 如第4小题，设空处后下一句“He feels unhappy and feels … He has the idea that the world travels around him and for him and to satisfy him”是对选项B的具体解释，从而可以确定选项。 ‎ ‎2.逻辑很重要 注意句与句之间、段与段之间的连接性的词语，如表示并列、转折、因果、递进等逻辑关系的词语。‎ 如第2小题， 选项F中also表示递进关系，也是谈论关于衡量一个人是否成熟的方法，顺承设空处前一句的话题，从而确定选项。‎ ‎3. 词语复现显神功 上下文与主题相关的词语通常会以原词、同义词、近义词、同根词或同范畴词等形式在上下文中重复出现。‎ 如第5小题，此题线索是词汇复现， 设空处后多次提到“make decisions”与选项G中 “make decisions”是原词复现，可确定选项。‎ 值得注意的是，有的题利用词语复现解题十分管用，但这并不意味着凡与上句或下句有复现词的选项就一定是正确选项，只是正确的可能性更大，在解题过程中需重点考虑或优选考虑而已。是否为正确答案，还得将含复现词的选项代入原文，看该选项与上下文是否真的衔接，只有上下衔接紧密的才是正确选项。‎ ‎4. 代词亦管用 七选五就是考查上下文之间的衔接，而代词是语篇衔接的重要手段之一，故解题中要善于利用这一衔接手段。 ‎ 如第1小题， 选项C中it指代前一句中的“the physical growth”，可以帮助确定选项。‎ 第三部分 语言知识运用(共两节，满分 35 分)‎ 第一节 (共 10 小题；每小题 2 分，满分 20 分)‎ 阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的 A、B、C 和 D 四个选项中，选出可以填入空白处 的最佳选项。‎ On Christmas morning, Abby, a teenager, went happily downstairs.

This horse was famous for being both fast and gentle. Now, an Arab named Jehu, who belonged to another tribe wanted this horse.‎ Jehu had offered his camels and many valuable treasures for the horse but the owner would not sell it. Jehu then thought up a trick by which he hoped to get the horse for himself.‎ He decided to dress in rags, dirty his face and blindfold himself. Thus, he lay by the roadside to wait for the owner of the horse, who he knew would pass by that way.‎ When he saw Nabor coming on his beautiful horse, he cried out in a weak voice, “I am a poor and sick blind man. For three days and nights I have been unable to move from this spot to find food. I am dying; help me please.”‎ Nabor kindly offered to take him on his horse and carry him home; but Jehu replied, “I cannot stand; I have no strength left,” Nabor felt pity for him and got off his horse. He led his horse to the man and, with great difficulty, helped him onto the horse’s back. But, once Jehu was sitting in the saddle(鞍), he kicked the horse and galloped off, calling out as he did so, “I have the horse; and you will never see it again. Goodbye!” Nabor was, at first, surprised and sad but he soon ran after the thief, ‎ shouting to him to stop as he had something to say to him.‎ 注意:‎ ‎1. 所续写短文的词数应为 150 左右；‎ ‎2. 应使用 5 个以上短文中标有下划线的关键词语；‎ ‎3. 续写部分分为两段，每段的开头语已为你写好；‎ ‎4. 续写完成后，请用下划线标出你所使用的关键词语。‎ Paragraph 1:‎ Certain that Nabor could not catch him by foot, Jehu turned the horse and stopped a short distance from Nabor.‎ ‎________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________‎ Paragraph 2:‎ Struck with shame at these words, Jehu was silent for a moment.‎ ‎________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________‎ ‎【答案】Certain that Nabor could not catch him by foot, Jehu turned the horse and stopped a short distance from Nabor. “You have taken my horse.”said Nabor, “but since I can do nothing to stop you, I have to accept my loss; but I beg you never to tell anyone how you got the horse.” “And why not?” asked Jehu. “Because,” replied Nabor, “another man might be truly sick and in trouble, and men would be too fearful to help him. In this way, you would prevent others doing what is good and right for fear of being tricked as I have been.”‎ Struck with shame at these words, Jehu was silent for a moment. Then, he jumped from the horse and led him back to the owner. He said, “Nabor, take back your horse. How bad it would be if, by my wicked actions, I should stop other people doing what is right! I am sorry for the wrong which I was about to do.” Nabor was happy to get his beautiful horse back; but he was even happier that his words had stopped another person from wickedness and crime. He offered his forgiveness and friendship to Jehu. He then invited him back to his tent, and ever afterwards treated him as a friend.‎ ‎【解析】‎ ‎【分析】‎ 本篇书面表达是读后续写。通过阅读所给文章可知，本文是一个故事。Jehu想要得到Nabor的马，但是Nabor不肯卖。Jehu就想出一个计策， 装扮成一个可怜的人，躺在路边等Nabor骑马经过。出于同情，Nabor将他扶上马。这时Jehu就骑马飞奔而去。‎ ‎【详解】续写部分分为两段，第1段开头是：Jehu断定Nabor肯定不能抓住他，便转过马，在离Nabor不远的地方停了下来。 下面应该写Nabor想办法将马要回来。他就想了一个计策，让Jehu不要告诉别人他是怎么得到这匹马的。Jehu当然感到奇怪，就问原因。Nabor说，“也可能真的有人会需要帮助。如果你告诉别人你是通过骗我得到的这匹马，那么就会让其他人不想做好事，不去帮助人，因为害怕像我一样被骗。” ‎ 第2段开头是：听了这些话，Jehu感到羞愧，有一会没说话。 下面应该写他听到Nabor的话的反应。 Jehu跳下马，将马归还给Nabor，并且对他说，他不想因为自己的行为而阻止别人做正确的事。Nabor很高兴，能够将马要回来。但更高兴的是，他的话阻止了另外一个人的邪恶。他宽恕了Jehu，并且将他当作朋友对待。‎ 续写时要求使用5个给出短文中标有下划线的关键词语，增加了写作的难度。阅读文章时，要熟悉有下划线的词语，以便在写作的时候恰当地加以运用。最后还要注意所续写短文的词数应是150左右。续写完成后，需要用下划线标出你所使用的关键词语，按要求完成写作任务。‎ ‎【点睛】本文描写详略得当，重点突出，同时表达时也使用了很多高级词汇，如since；accept ; beg sb. not to do …；in trouble；too …to；prevent sb. from doing ; take back ; wicked action；crime；forgiveness；friendship；invite sb. to do…；treat sb. as 等；还运用了复杂的句式，如what引导的宾语从句的运用you would prevent others doing what is good and right；定语从句的运用I am sorry for the wrong which I was about to do 等。‎ ‎ ‎
