Each word struck me with the power of staunchness, the power of determination, and the power of love, whether it is from Hassan orAmir.‎ It’s hard to use a few words to describe what the story is about because too many things are revealed, friendship, familial affection, love, inferiority, timidity, betrayal, regret, atonement, etc. It’s even harder to imagine how the writer managed to expose so many aspects of human nature in just one story, with the truth of cruelty. Unlike many other stories in which the main characters are always perfect men or heroes. Kite Runner shows us a real man who is also desperate for others’ approval, who may also become timid in the face of challenge, who will also make big mistakes, just like most of us. In the story, we witness Amir’s growth from an immature, unconfident boy to a brave man, willing to shoulder responsibilities. But he grows up with pain and regret, and almost at the cost of his life.‎ The story strikes me with the cruel reality that some mistakes take a lifetime to make up for. Some hurt which has already been caused can never be undone. Some people, once left, may never return. So always keep a sense of responsibilities for what you are doing, so that unnecessary hurt can be avoided. If mistakes are made, try to make up for it at once, for you may never have a second chance. Also, cherish people you love when they are still by your side, for they may be away for good.‎ At last, I believe that the person, who is ever promised by others with the word “For you, a thousand times over”, is the luckiest guy in the world. I wish I could have this honor too.‎ ‎4. The passage most probably is ________.‎ A. a book review B. the preface of a book C. a summary of a book D. an original piece from a book ‎5. According to the passage, which statement is correct?‎ A Amir reflects many aspects of human nature.‎ B. Amir grows up happily with love and friendship.‎ C. Amir likes to challenge himself in growth.‎ D. Amir is a brave hero who loses his life at last.‎ ‎6. Which of the following can replace the underlined word “for good”?‎ A. sometimes B. frequently C. forever D. occasionally ‎7. Which of the following will the author most agree with?‎ A. Wait for what you love though it’s far away.‎ B. Cherish what you have before it’s gone.‎ C. Chase what matters despite the difficulties.‎ D. Avoid what hurts unless it counts.‎ ‎【答案】4. A 5. A 6. C 7. B ‎【解析】‎ ‎【分析】‎ 这篇是一篇夹叙夹议文章。文章主要先描述了作者写的读后感，然后得到的一些生活启示：要做有责任的人；如果不小心犯了错误，一定要去弥补；要珍惜身边人等等。‎ ‎【4题详解】‎ 推理判断题。从第一段中“For you, a thousand times over.” The words echoed (回响) in my heart long after I had finished the heartbreaking story. Each word struck me with the power of staunchness, the power of determination, and the power of love, whether it is from Hassan orAmir. (“为了你，千千万万遍。”在我读完这令人心碎的故事很久之后这句话仍回响在我心中。每句话都给我一种坚定的力量，一种决心的力量，一种爱的力量。)开篇点明主题，可推断出这是一篇读后感。故选A项。‎ ‎【5题详解】‎ 细节理解题。从第二段中Kite Runner shows us a real man who is also desperate for others’ approval, who may also become timid in the face of challenge, who will also make big mistakes, just ‎ like most of us.(《追风筝的人》向我们展示了一个真正的男人，他也渴望得到别人的认可，他也会在挑战面前变得胆怯，他也会犯大错误，就像我们大多数人一样)。可知，在Kite Runner这本书中，展现的主人翁跟我们生活中的大多数人一样。A. Amir reflects many aspects of human nature. ( Amir反映了人性的许多方面)。符合题意。故选A项。‎ ‎【6题详解】‎ 词义猜测题。根据倒数第二段中Also, cherish people you love when they are still by your side, for they may be away for good.(同样，当他们还在你身边的时候要珍惜你爱的人，因为他们可能会永远离开你)。A. sometimes偶尔；B. frequently经常地；C. forever永远；D. occasionally偶尔地。根据常识，每个人的生命都是有限的，总有一天会离开亲人，所以人们要珍惜还在身边的人。所以只有forever带入句中符合语境。故选C项。‎ ‎【7题详解】‎ 细节理解题。根据倒数第二段中Also, cherish people you love when they are still by your side, for they may be away for good.(同样，当他们还在你身边的时候要珍惜你爱的人，因为他们可能会永远离开你)。B. Cherish what you have before it’s gone. (在失去之前，请珍惜你所拥有的一切)。符合题意。故选B项。‎ ‎【点睛】细节理解题考查的是考生根据材料查找关键信息及重要细节、判断新组成的语句与材料原意是否一致等的能力。主要有以下陷阱“无中生有”，“颠倒黑白”，。如本题中的第二小题，B. Amir grows up happily with love and friendship. C. Amir likes to challenge himself in growth. 就属于“颠倒黑白”；D. Amir is a brave hero who loses his life at last. 就属于“偷换概念”。故选A项。‎ C That’s the norm at Green Bank, West Virginia, where its 143 residents can’t rely on their cellphones or tablets to connect with friends and loved ones because wireless devices are forbidden.‎ Located within a 13,000-square mile area known as the National Radio Quiet Zone, Green Bank houses the National Astronomy Observatory, which operates the world’s largest radio telescope.‎ There is a ban on Wi-Fi—wireless Internet service—in Green Bank, along with anything else that can create electromagnetic waves. Officials say the waves could interfere with signals the telescope receives. People can connect with the Internet through telephones or Ethernet cables, but wireless service is not permitted.‎ Residents say they are happy with their quiet unplugged lifestyle. It allows them to connect in ‎ ways that actually matter, said Shelly Chestnut. “You know what? Your cell phone isn’t looking at a person eye-to-eye, or going to their house and speaking and just shaking their hand or giving them a hug and saying ‘How are you today?’” she said.‎ Some people call the Green Bank Telescope “the GBT”. That is short for “Great Big Thing”. The telescope is searching for radio signals from other planets, among other things. Richard Lynch is one of the scientists who listen for signals from outer space. “All the signals that we find with the telescope so far are just generated by unintelligent stars, galaxies—you know, things in the universe. We haven’t ever found anything from an intelligent civilization.”‎ For the latest news, people in Green Bank read the local weekly newspaper. When Chestnut needs to look for a phone number, she looks in a phone book. And instead of sending messages on Facebook to her friends and neighbors, she talks to them. In Green Bank, everyone knows each other and communication is almost always face-to-face.‎ ‎8. What is the main subject of the text?‎ A. Atown far away from the intelligent civilizations.‎ B. AGreat Big Thing in a small American village.‎ C. An American town without Wi-Fi or mobile phones.‎ D. An old-fashioned way of life in America.‎ ‎9. How did Chestnut think of her life without Wi-Fi?‎ A. Difficult. B. Comfortable.‎ C. Dull. D. Painful.‎ ‎10. What is the GBT used for in Green Bank?‎ A. Receiving signals from other planets.‎ B. Communicating with other life in space.‎ C. Creating and sending electromagnetic waves.‎ D. Monitoring the zone of silence.‎ ‎11. What do we know about the villagers in Green Bank?‎ A. They connect with their friends on tablets.‎ B. They search for radio signals from outer space.‎ C. They read the latest news on Facebook.‎ D. They have access to the Internet.‎ ‎【答案】8. C 9. B 10. A 11. D ‎【解析】‎ 这是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了在美国西弗吉尼亚州Green Bank小镇上，人们过着没有无线电设备的生活，但是人们感觉这样与人当面沟通的生活非常好。‎ ‎【8题详解】‎ 主旨大意题。根据第一段That’s the norm at Green Bank, West Virginia, where its 143 residents can’t rely on their cellphones or tablets to connect with friends and loved ones because wireless devices are forbidden.(这是西弗吉尼亚州Green Bank的惯例，那里的143名居民不能依靠手机或平板电脑与朋友和亲人联系，因为无线设备是被禁止的。)可知，开篇点名主题，本文主要讲解了Green Bank这个镇上的居民不能使用无线电设备。C. An American town without Wi-Fi or mobile phones. (一个没有Wi-Fi和移动电话的美国小镇。)符合题意。故选C项。‎ ‎【9题详解】‎ 推理判断题。根据第四段中Residents say they are happy with their quiet unplugged lifestyle. It allows them to connect in ways that actually matter, said Shelly Chestnut. (Shelly Chestnut说居民们对这种安静的不插电的生活方式很开心。它让他们以真正重要的方式联系在一起)。可知，人们感到没有网络的生活是舒适的)。A. Difficult. (困难的)；B. Comfortable. (舒适的)‎ C. Dull. (无聊)；D. Painful. (痛苦的)。故选B项。‎ ‎【10题详解】‎ 细节理解题。根据倒数第二段Some people call the Green Bank Telescope “the GBT”. The telescope is searching for radio signals from other planets, among other things. (有些人把Green Bank Telescope称为“GBT”。该望远镜正在寻找来自其他星球的无线电信号。)可知，the Green Bank Telescope是用于搜寻其他星球的无线电信号。A. Receiving signals from other planets. (接收来自其他星球的信号)。符合题意。故选A项。‎ ‎【11题详解】‎ 细节理解题。根据第三段中People can connect with the Internet through telephones or Ethernet cables, but wireless service is not permitted.(人们可以通过电话或以太网电缆连接互联网，但不允许使用无线服务)。可知，人们可以连接网络，只是不能用无线网。D. They have access to the Internet.(他们可以上网)。符合题意。故选D项。‎ D Off the Marianas Islands, in a remote stretch of the Pacific Ocean, lies a deep trench. A trench so ‎ deep that it could accommodate the tallest mountain range—the Himalayas, and still have a mile of water above!‎ The Mariana Trench stretches for 2, ‎550km along the Pacific Ocean floor and is ‎70km wide. The deepest part of the trench, Challenger Deep, lies 7 miles below the ocean surface. Mariana Trench is part of a network of trenches that cross the ocean floor.‎ How do these trenches form? Our Earth is made up of tectonic plates which connect with each other like giant jigsaw puzzles. The plates are constantly moving because of the molten lava inside our Earth. When one tectonic plate dives under another plate, trenches are formed.‎ The sheer depth of Mariana Trench makes it hard to explore. Sunlight does not reach that far down, covering it in permanent darkness. The water pressure at the deepest point is nearly 1,000 times more than at the surface. Despite these inhospitable conditions, some of the strangest creatures are found in the trench—creatures that produce their own light.‎ A team of researchers decided to study the zone, an area of water that is 3.7 miles to 6.8 miles below the surface.‎ The research team sent traps underwater to catch the tiny prawn-like amphipods (片脚动物) and tested them. They found extremely high levels of chemicals, known to cause health issues like cancer. These family of chemicals known as POPs (Persistent Organic Pollutants) were used extensively in pesticides until they were banned in the 1970s, and some are still in use today.‎ The POPs do not break down. They are ingested by the larger marine animals and when they die and sink to the bottom of the oceans, the smaller creatures feast on them. The chemicals then enter the bodies of these amphipods and other smaller marine creatures, and disrupt their hormone balances. And thus, the cycle continues.‎ While we may think that our oceans are pristine, this latest finding tells us that in a trench far……far away from any industrial city, we humans are leaving our footprint.‎ ‎12. According to the text, the Mariana Trench ________.‎ A. covers the Pacific Ocean floor B. remains dark all the time C. is like a giant jigsaw puzzle D. lies ‎7km below the ocean surface ‎13. The third paragraph centers on ________.‎ A. the molten lava inside the earth B. the cause of moving plates C. the formation of the trench D. the make-up of tectonic plates ‎14. How did researchers judge the trench pollution?‎ A. By taking some soil from the ocean bottom.‎ B. By measuring the water pressure.‎ C. By getting some water from the trench.‎ D. By analyzing the creatures living in the trench.‎ ‎15. What does the passage intend to tell the readers?‎ A. The Mariana Trench is seriously polluted.‎ B. The Mariana Trench is totally dark.‎ C. The Mariana Trench is deadly poisonous.‎ D. The Mariana Trench is greatly wonderful.‎ ‎【答案】12. B 13. C 14. D 15. A ‎【解析】‎ 这是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了在远离马里亚纳群岛的遥远的太平洋上，有一条深深的海沟。这是一条深不见底的海沟，在这里，考察工作进行的非常困难，但是科学家们还是在远离任何工业城市的海沟中发现了POPs(持久性有机污染物)，这也说明了我们人类对环境造成的污染是非常严重的。‎ ‎【12题详解】‎ 细节理解题。根据第四段中Sunlight does not reach that far down, covering it in permanent darkness.(阳光照不到那么深的地方，把它永远笼罩在黑暗中。)可知，这个海沟太深了，阳光都无法照射到，所以它永远是黑的。B. remains dark all the time(一直保持黑暗)。符合题意。故选B项。‎ ‎【13题详解】‎ 主旨大意题。根据第三段How do these trenches form? Our Earth is made up of tectonic plates which connect with each other like giant jigsaw puzzles. The plates are constantly moving because of the molten lava inside our Earth. When one tectonic plate dives under another plate, trenches are formed. (这些沟是怎么形成的?‎ 我们的地球是由互相连接的构造板块组成的，就像巨大的拼图一样。由于地球内部的熔岩，板块一直在移动。当一个构造板块俯冲到另一个板块之下时，就形成了海沟。)可知，本段第一句提出疑问，后面解释了海沟的形成的原因。C. the formation of the trench. (海沟的形成)。符合题意。故选C项。‎ ‎【14题详解】‎ 细节理解题。根据第六段中The research team sent traps underwater to catch the tiny prawn-like amphipods (片脚动物) and tested them.(研究小组发送陷阱在水下去捉像小虾这种片脚动物来做测试。) 可知，科学家在海沟里捕捉一些生物来研究海沟里的环境。D. By analyzing the creatures living in the trench. (通过分析生活在沟里的生物)。符合题意。故选D项。‎ ‎【15题详解】‎ 推理判断题。根据最后一段While we may think that our oceans are pristine, this latest finding tells us that in a trench far……far away from any industrial city, we humans are leaving our footprint.(虽然我们可能认为海洋是未开发的，但这一最新发现告诉我们，在远离任何工业城市的海沟中，我们人类正在留下自己的足迹。)可知，我们人类对海洋也造成了很大的污染。A. The Mariana Trench is seriously polluted. (马里亚纳海沟污染严重)。符合题意。故选A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。‎ For more than 60 years, Lego blocks have sparked children’s imagination. ___16___ They are called Lego Braille Bricks.

There’s asmall tugboat pulling the old ship.‎ The picture, ___43___, is more than just a painting of two boats in the evening. The artist wanted to show the end of an era (时代). The time of the beautiful, old sailing ships is coming to ___44___ end. Rather than placing Temeraire in the middle of his canvas, Turner painted the warship near the left edge of the canvas. He used ___45___ (shade) of white, grey, and brown for the boat, ___46___ (make) it look almost like a ghost ship. The mighty warship is being pulled along by a tiny black tugboat, whose steam engine is more than strong enough ___47___ (control) its larger counterpart. That’s why we see this happening at sunset.

M. W. Turner创作的The Fighting Temeraire.这幅巨作。‎ ‎【41题详解】‎ 考查名词。句意：对许多英国人来说，Temeraire（战舰无畏号）是一个强有力的提醒，提醒他们国家在军事上取得成功的悠久历史。powerful是形容词，这里修饰名词作定语。故填reminder。‎ ‎【42题详解】‎ 考查定语从句。句意：1939年，J. M. W. Turner开始创作名为The Fighting Temeraire的绘画作品。分析句子可知，这是一个非限制性定语从句，先行词为his painting，在定语从句中充当定语成分。故填whose。‎ ‎【43题详解】‎ 考查副词。句意：然而，这幅画并不仅仅是一幅在晚上有两条船的画。分析句子可知，逗号前后存在转折的关系，需要用表转折含义的连接性状语。故填however。‎ ‎【44题详解】‎ 考查冠词。句意：美丽古老的帆船时代即将结束。根据固定搭配come to an end“结束”，可知，这里需要填不定冠词an。故填an。‎ ‎【45题详解】‎ 考查名词复数。句意：他用白色、灰色和棕色的色调做船，看起来就像幽灵船。shade做“色调”时，为可数名词，常构成短语shades of “各种色调”。故填shades。‎ ‎【46题详解】‎ 考查非谓语动词。句意：他用白色、灰色和棕色的色调做船，看起来就像幽灵船。分析句子可知，他用白色、灰色和棕色的色调做船，得到的结果就是船像是幽灵船，此处使用现在分词作结果状语。故填making。‎ ‎【47题详解】‎ 考查非谓语动词。句意：这艘强大的战舰正由一艘黑色的小拖船拉着前进，小拖船的蒸汽机比它的大对手更强大。根据固定搭配adj/ adv+ enough + to do sth.“足够…干某事”，不定式在此作结果状语。故填to control。‎ ‎【48题详解】‎ 考查形容词。句意：在褐色的小拖船里，我们可以看到新的工业时代开始了。era “时代”是个名词，前面用形容词来修饰它作定语。故填industrial。‎ ‎【49题详解】‎ 考查动词时态。句意：在Turner很老的时候，他给The Fighting Temeraire图的色，也许他也想表现一下自己人生的落幕。分析句子可知，此处需要填谓语动词，而且描述的是过去的事情，所以用过去时。故填painted。‎ ‎【50题详解】‎ 考查并列连词。句意：在Turner很老的时候，他给The Fighting Temeraire图的色，也许他也想表现一下自己人生的落幕。分析句子可知，这是两个简单句，需要用并列连词，而且之间存在递进或因果关系。故填and/so。‎ ‎【点睛】现在分词作结果状语的用法需要注意几点：1.句子的主谓部分与分词之间含有逻辑上的因果关系；2 现在分词一般放在句子的后面，前面通常有逗号隔开；3. 现在分词的逻辑主语可以上句子的主语，也可以是前面的整个句子。本题的第6小题，因为船的色调都是浅色调，所以船看起来像幽灵船。他们之间存在逻辑上的因果关系，而且也是放在句末，make的逻辑主语就是前面整个句子。‎ 第三部分 写作（共两节，满分35分）‎ 第一节 短文改错（共10小题；每小题1分，满分10分）‎ ‎51.假定英语课上老师要求同桌之间交换修改作文，请你修改你同桌写的以下作文。文中共有10处语言错误，每句中最多有两处。每处错误仅涉及一个单词的增加、删除或修改。‎ 增加：在缺词处加一个漏字符号（∧），并在其下面写出该加的词。‎ 删除：把多余的词用斜线（）划掉。‎ 修改：在错的词下划一横线，并在该词下面写出修改后的词。‎ 注意：1. 每处错误及其修改均仅限一词；‎ ‎2. 只允许修改10处，多者（从第11处起）不计分。‎ Many people have an exercise routine. And what about those times when you are sick? Health experts note that it is usually fine to exercise if when your symptoms are all “above the neck.” These sign may include a runny nose, sneezing or a sore throat. Exercise may make you feel better by open your airway. However, if signs of your ill appear “below the neck”, taking a break from exercising was suggested. It’s on guard for extremely cough or pain in the stomach. Other symptoms, including a high than normal body temperature, a sense of feeling extremely tired, and widespread muscle pain, can also tell you avoid exercise. Just taking a break and let your body rest.‎ ‎【答案】And→But 去掉if/when sign→signs open→opening ill→illness was→is extremely→extreme high→ higher 在avoid前加to taking→take ‎【解析】‎ ‎【分析】‎ 这是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述生病的时候是否该继续保持运动。如果病情不是很严重，就可以继续保持运动；但如果比较严重，就最好暂时休息一下。‎ ‎【详解】1. 考查连词。and表顺承，but表转折。结合语意，这里是表转折。故将And改为But。‎ ‎2. 考查连词。if “如何”，是个连词；when“当…的时候”也是个连词；两个连词重复了，必须要去掉一个。故将if /when去掉。‎ ‎3. 考查名词的数。前面有代词These修饰，所以后面的名词应该是可数名词的复数形式。故将sign改为signs。‎ ‎4. 考查动名词。by是个介词，后面需要接动名词。故将open改为opening。‎ ‎5. 考查名词。your是形容词性物主代词，后面需要接名词，ill的名词形式为illness。故将ill改为illness。‎ ‎6. 考查时态。根据上下文了解到，本篇文章使用的是一般现在时。故将was改为is。‎ ‎7. 考查形容词。根据后文cough or pain，此处应该用形容词修饰名词作定语。故将extremely改为extreme。‎ ‎8. 考查形容词比较级。本句中有比较级的标志词than。故将high改为higher。‎ ‎9. 考查固定搭配。根据固定搭配tell sb. to do sth.可知，需要用tell you to avoid exercise。故在avoid前加to。‎ ‎10. 考查祈使句。本句是个固定句型：祈使句+and+陈述句。祈使句必须要用动词原形开头。故将taking改为take。‎ 第二节 书面表达（满分25分）‎ ‎52.假设你是李华，英国留学生Jim邀请你本周日参加他的“我与中国”（@ China）摄影展，但你因故不能参加。请你给他写一封信，内容包括：‎ ‎1. 表示感谢；‎ ‎2. 表示道歉并说明原因；‎ ‎3. 预祝成功。‎ 注意：1. 词数 100 左右；‎ ‎2. 可以增加细节，以使行文连贯。‎ ‎____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________‎ ‎【答案】Dear Jim,‎ I feel excited to know that you are having your personal photography show and thank you so much for your invitation and concern.
