Their ways are pretty clever. When there are new users or conservative old users, they will give a quite appealing price to attract them into registering and buying goods. However, their big data is not that friendly to the stable users and frequent visitors. The system always offers them higher price for the same products or service. How does this happen? According to the data analysis, the system knows clearly that although they feel the price is high, they will finally pay the bill. By collecting and analyzing users’ profiles, buying habits and other information, big data recommends the same products to different users with different prices.‎ Companies also try other ways to make money, making online consumption far more worrying. For example, video websites always offer 120 seconds’ advertisements, which drives people crazy. And even if you pay for the membership to get rid of the ‎ ads, you have to “enjoy” 15-second “private” ads. By broadcasting them, companies make huge profits — second to the membership fees. Also, owning 100Mbps network, you still put up with the slow speed when you are downloading a song. You have no choice but to become a VIP when you seek high quality services. Users seem to be lambs(羊羔) among wolves. Even though they say, “Since you have money, I’ll charge you more”, we can’t do anything about it.‎ It pains us that we haven’t figured out a way to deal with the problem. The only thing we can do is replacing our iPhones with Android phones if we want to buy a membership card, and applying for new accounts if we want cheaper hotels. Not finding a way to fight back, we can’t do anything but accept them passively.‎ ‎8. How does big data serve companies according to the text?‎ A. By being kind to all users.‎ B. By giving a discount to stable users.‎ C. By attracting new users by analyzing their shopping habits.‎ D. By recommending the same products with higher prices to regular users.‎ ‎9. What do we know from the third paragraph?‎ A. Membership can rid you of all the ads.‎ B. Only by being a VIP can you get a better service.‎ C. The slow download speed is due to your poor network.‎ D. Advertising income is the biggest income for video websites.‎ ‎10. What is the author’ attitude towards the chances of finding a way to fight back?‎ A. Uncertain. B. Casual.‎ C. Negative. D. Positive.‎ ‎11. What is the main idea of the text?‎ A. The big data provides helpful information to users.‎ B. We have to accept online consumption as it is.‎ C. There exist many online consumption traps.‎ D. Regular customers are richer.‎ ‎【答案】8. D 9. B 10. C 11. C ‎【解析】‎ 本文是一篇说明文，介绍了很多网上的电商平台存在消费陷阱，欺骗消费者，消费者只能被动地接受。‎ ‎【8题详解】‎ 细节理解题。根据第一段中的However, their big data is not that friendly to the stable users and frequent visitors. The system always offers them higher price for the same products or service.可知，大数据向老顾客推荐同类中价格较高的产品，故选D。‎ ‎【9题详解】‎ 细节理解题。根据第三段中You have no choice but to become a VIP when you seek high quality services.可知，只有成为高级会员你才能得到更好的服务，故选B。‎ ‎【10题详解】‎ 推理判断题。根据最后一段中Not finding a way to fight back, we can’t do anything but accept them passively.可知，找不到反击的办法，我们只能被动地接受，由此可知，作者对反击的机会持消极的态度，故选C。‎ ‎【11题详解】‎ 主旨大意题。通读全文，特别是根据第一段中的Recently, many e-commerce platforms, including Didi Taxi, Ctrip, Fliggy, JD ad Taobao, have been uncovered that they are cheating their frequent customers.可知，本文主要介绍了很多网上的电商平台存在消费陷阱，欺骗消费者，故选C。‎ D At one time it was the dream of many little girls to become a nurse. Today, however, America is facing its worst nurse shortage since World War I. Recently about 2,000,000 nurses are needed and 60 percent of all hospitals in the US have shortages, large enough to threaten the quality of care provided. The demand for nurses spreads widely throughout the nursing field.‎ What has become of these women in white? The answer lies in not one but several causes. One possibility is the fact that women have greater career options. In the past, women who chose to work outside the home had two basic choices: nursing or teaching. Today, more women than ever are in the workforce, but their options have greatly increased. There are women doctors, lawyers, firefighters and police officers. In fact, women today are found in nearly every field of work. Nursing has been left ‎ behind, as women move on to jobs with higher pay and greater status. A woman or man in the nursing field is often looked down upon as“merely a nurse”. Teachers many be also at fault. Many high school students are actually away from nursing, told by teachers that they are“too bright to be a nurse”.‎ Americans are living longer than ever and requiring more medical attention. In fact, the number of elderly patients has almost doubled in the past twenty years. Obviously a larger population requires more nurses. AIDS and other diseases have caused more and more people to need nursing care. Usually fatal(致命的) diseases mean long hospital stay, that is to say, more nurses are needed to care for these patients. It is estimated that the demand for nurses will be doubled the supply in the coming ten years.‎ ‎12. What does the second paragraph mainly talk about?‎ A. How teachers have influenced their students.‎ B. What has caused nurse shortage.‎ C. How nurses have been looked down upon.‎ D. Why women have chosen many different jobs.‎ ‎13. The passage tells that high school teachers are at fault for .‎ A. not mentioning the worst nurse shortage in the US B. introducing jobs with higher pay and greater status to their students C. persuading the students not to be nurses D. not asking the government to raise the nurses’ payment ‎14. The author writes the passage in order to .‎ A. warn people to pay more attention to the nursing problem B. call on women to choose different kinds of jobs C. tell us women’s free choices of jobs today D. describe the unequal treatment of women in the US ‎15. It can be inferred from the passage that .‎ A. of all the hospitals in the world 60 percent more nurses are badly needed B. women in the US have greater career choices than those in other countries C. high school students think themselves too bright to be nurses D nursing used to be a popular job among women ‎【答案】12. B 13. C 14. A 15. D ‎【解析】‎ ‎【分析】‎ 本文是一篇议论文。分析了女孩不想当护士的原因，许多高中学生实际上之所以远离护理,是因为老师告诉他们“你们太聪明了，当一名护士是不值得的。目前，在美国60%的医院护士短缺，将要威胁医疗护理的质量。从中可以看出作者想让人们重视护士问题。‎ ‎【12题详解】‎ 细节理解题。第二段的The answer lies in not one but several causes.第二段主要分析女孩不想当护士的原因。故选B。‎ ‎【13题详解】‎ 细节理解题。第二段的Many high school students are actually away from nursing, told by teachers that they are“too bright to be a nurse许多高中学生实际上之所以远离护理,是因为老师告诉他们“你们太聪明了，当一名护士是不值得的”。故选C。‎ ‎【14题详解】‎ 作者意图题。第一段的Recently about 2,000,000 nurses are needed and 60 percent of all hospitals in the US have shortages, large enough to threaten the quality of care provided目前，在美国60%的医院护士短缺，将要威胁医疗护理的质量。从中可以看出作者想让人们重视护士问题。故选A。‎ ‎【15题详解】‎ 推理判断题。第二段的told by teachers that they are“too bright to be a nurse”是老师说的而不是学生说的，排除A；B项文章没提，故排除；第一段的60 percent of all hospitals in the US have shortages是说美国60%的医院护士短缺，而不是全世界的医院，故排除C项；第二段的In the past, women who chose to work outside the home had two basic choices: nursing or teaching. 过去妇女到外面找工作，经常选择护士和教师。故选D。‎ ‎【点睛】推理判断题要求在理解原文表面文字信息的基础上，做出一定的推理判断，从而得到文章的隐含意义和深层意义。推理判断题所涉及的内容可能是文中的某一句话，也可能是某几句话，所以，推理题的答案只能是根据原文表面文字信息一步推出的答案：即对原文某一句话或某几句话所作的同义改写或综合。推理判断题的题干中通常含infer,suggest,imply,conclude  indicate等标志性词语。本题第3小题，第一段的Recently about 2,000,000 nurses are needed and 60 percent of all hospitals in the US have shortages, large enough to threaten the quality of care provided目前，在美国60%的医院护士短缺，将要威胁医疗护理的质量。从中可以看出作者想让人们重视护士问题。故选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。‎ 根据短文内容，从短文后的七个选项中选出正确的填入空白处。选项中有两项为多余选项。This Way to Dreamland Daydreaming means people think about something pleasant, especially when this makes them forget what they should be doing.

Since 2011, the country ____41____（grow）more corn than rice. Corn production has jumped nearly 125 percent over ____42____ past 25 years, while rice has increased only 7 percent.‎ A taste for meat is ____43____ (actual) behind the change: An important part of its corn is used to feed chickens, pigs, and cattle. Another reason for corn's rise: The government encourages farmers to grow corn instead of rice ____44____ (improve) water quality. Corn uses less water ____45____ rice and creates less fertilizer(化肥) runoff. This switch has decreased ____46____ (pollute) in the country's major ‎ lakes and reservoirs and made drinking water safer for people.‎ According to the World Bank, China accounts for about 30 percent of total ____47____ (globe)fertilizer consumption. The Chinese Ministry of Agriculture finds that between 2005—when the government ____48____ (start) a soil-testing program ____49____ gives specific fertilizer recommendations to farmers - and 2011, fertilizer use dropped by 7.7 million tons. That prevented the emission(排放) of 51.8 million tons of carbon dioxide. China's approach to protecting its environment while _____50_____ (feed) its citizens "offers useful lessons for agriculture and food policymakers worldwide." says the bank's Juergen Voegele.‎ ‎【答案】41. has grown ‎ ‎42. the 43. actually ‎ ‎44. to improve ‎ ‎45. than 46. pollution ‎ ‎47. global 48. started ‎ ‎49. that/which ‎ ‎50. feeding ‎【解析】‎ 本文是一篇说明文。文中讲述了中国为保护环境在农作物种植上做了一些变化并得到了世界上的知名认识的认可。‎ ‎【41题详解】‎ 考查时态。since加时间点，主句要用现在完成时。句意：2011年以来，中国种植的玉米比水稻多。故填has grown。‎ ‎【42题详解】‎ 考查冠词。句意：玉米产量在过去25年里增长了近125%，而大米只增长了7%。故是特指在过去的25年里。故填the。‎ ‎【43题详解】‎ 考查副词。句意：对肉的需求实际上是这种变化的背后原因。句子结构完整，用副词修饰句子。故填actually。‎ ‎【44题详解】‎ 考查非谓语动词。句意：为了改善水质政府鼓励农民种植玉米而不是大米。没有连词可以且谓语动词是encourages，故improve应该用非谓语动词。此处表示目的，故用不定式。故填to improve。‎ ‎【45题详解】‎ 考查连词。句意：玉米比大米使用的水更少。根据关键词less可知，填比较连词。故填than。‎ ‎【46题详解】‎ 考查词性转换。句意：这一转变减少了中国较大的湖泊和水库的污染，使人们的饮用水更加安全。has decreased后跟名词作宾语，故填pollution。‎ ‎【47题详解】‎ 考查词性转换。句意：中国约占全球化肥总消费量的30%。fertilizer consumption是名词短语，故应该用形容词修饰。故填global。‎ ‎【48题详解】‎ 考查谓语动词。句意：在2005年政府开始了一项土壤测试项目。本句是when引导的定语从句，由于时间是2005年，故用过去时。故填started。‎ ‎【49题详解】‎ 考查定语从句关系词。根据空后的谓语动词gives可知，该空缺少主语，指代program并且引导后面的句子。指物用that/which，故填that或者which。‎ ‎【50题详解】‎ 考查省略句。句意：中国在养活了中国人民的同时又保护了环境。这一做法为全世界的农业和粮食政策制定人提供了很有用的经验。空格处表示正在进行的动作，while后面省略掉了China is，省略句的原则：在时间状语从句、条件状语从句、，让步状语从句中，如果从句的主语和主句的主语一致且含有be动词时，那么可以把主语和be动词一块省略。故填feeding。‎ 点睛：学会分析句子成分。The Chinese Ministry of Agriculture finds that between 2005 - when the government started a soil-testing program which /that gives specific fertilizer recommendations to farmers - and 2011，fertilizer use dropped by 7.7 million tons. 这句话中有两个定语从句。一个是关系副词when引导的定语从句，先行词是2005，the government是主语，a soil-testing ‎ program是宾语，故此空缺少谓语动词，我们可以看出时态是一般过去时。另一个是关系代词指代program引导的定语从句，先行词是program，gives是第三人称谓语动词，可以看出是考查关系词。代指物并作主语，关系词要用that/which。‎ 第四部分：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。‎ Nowadays there was a kind of language called Web language. Some people even speak Chinese mixed in English words. This is a phenomenon which is worth think about. Some people think it will ruin a Chinese language. However, the others, especially the youngsters, are fond this new language. They think it of special help in expressing them. What’s more, it may make the language having more uses. In my opinion, it’s no good using this kind of language. It may be popular, but you may also get others puzzling. It is hard to say whether it is good or not, but there is going to have a discussion about it tomorrow.‎ ‎【答案】1 was→ is ‎2. in→with ‎3. think→thinking ‎4. a→ the ‎5. the others中去掉the ‎6. 在are fond后加of ‎7. them→themselves ‎8. having→have ‎9. puzzling→puzzled ‎10. have→be ‎【解析】‎ ‎【分析】‎ 本文是一篇议论文。有人喜欢使用网络语言，有时讲汉语时还夹杂着英语。有人认为这没有好处， 但是年轻人，喜欢这种新语言。一次关于网络语言是否有好处的讨论即将开始。‎ ‎【详解】1. 考查时态。根据时间状语nowadays判断句子用一般现在时。故将was改为is。‎ ‎2. 考查固定搭配。句意：有些人甚至会在讲中文的时候混用英文单词。be mixed with是一个固定搭配，意为“与混淆、混合”。原句用定语从句完整表达是这样的：Some people even speak Chinese （which/that is）mixed with English.括号中的内容可以省略，直接用过去分词做后置定语。故将in改为with。‎ ‎3. 考查非谓语动词。句意：这是一个值得思考的现象。be worth doing，意为“值得做某事”，故将think改为thinking。‎ ‎4. 考查冠词。句意：有人认为这会毁掉中文。表示某种语言一般有两种方式： 可以用专有名词直接表达，也可以用“the + 相应形容词 + language”来表达。如：英语：English = the English language；法语：French = the French language 。表示汉语应使用the Chinese language，故将a改为the。‎ ‎5. 考查代词。句意：有人认为这会毁掉中文。 但是，其他人，尤其是年轻人，都喜欢这种新语言。someothers 表示一些人……另外一些人…。somethe others 表示一些人……其他所有人…。前者others是剩下的人中的一部分,后者the others是剩下的人的全部，结合句意，故将the去掉。‎ ‎6. 考查固定搭配。句意：但是，其他人，尤其是年轻人，很喜欢这种新语言。be fond of意为“喜欢；爱好”，为固定搭配，故在are fond后加of。‎ ‎7. 考查代词。句意：他们认为这对表达他们自己的观点有特殊的帮助。 此处express oneself意为“表达某人的观点”。故将them改为themselves。‎ ‎8. 考查非谓语动词。句意：此外，这可能会使汉语具有更多用途。make sb do意为“使某人做某事”，故将having改为have。‎ ‎9. 考查分词。句意：网络语言可能很流行，但你可能会让其他人感到困惑。puzzling意为“令人困惑的”，用于修饰物；puzzled意为“困惑的”，用于修饰人。此处分词修饰宾语others，应用puzzled，故将puzzling改为puzzled。‎ ‎10. 考查固定句型。句意：很难说网络语言是否有好处，不过明天将要有一场关于它的讨论。there be句型…意为“在某地有……”，have表示“某人拥有某物”，故将have改为be。‎ ‎【点睛】一说到“有”，很多人就会想到 have ，所以会出现“there ‎ have”这样的错误表达。关键是汉语中的“有”的多重含义：我有个妹妹，表示拥有；桌子下有只猫，表示存在；表示拥有，使用“have”；表示存在，使用 there be。have 表示拥有，主语往往是人，例如：Do you have a soccer ball? 你有个足球吗？表示拥有，还可使用 have got：I’ve got a dog whose name is Sam. 我有一只叫山姆的狗。‎ 此句子表示 “明天将要有一场关于网络语言的讨论。”表示存在，不表示某人拥有，故将have改为be。‎ 第二节：书面表达（满分25分）‎ ‎52.假定你叫李华，你的新西兰朋友Terry即将大学毕业，他打算应聘来中国教高中生英语口语。现在他给你发来邮件，询问有关事宜。请你回复邮件，给予相关建议。‎ 内容包括：1. 行前准备；2. 教学内容；3. 教学活动。‎ 注意：1. 词数100左右；‎ ‎2. 可根据内容要点适当增加细节，使行文连贯。‎ ‎____________________________________________________________________________________________‎ ‎____________________________________________________________________________________________‎ ‎____________________________________________________________________________________________‎ ‎____________________________________________________________________________________________‎ ‎____________________________________________________________________________________________‎ ‎____________________________________________________________________________________________‎ ‎_________________________________________________________________________‎ ‎【答案】Dear Terry,‎ ‎ I’m very glad to learn that you’re going to come to China to teach Senior students Spoken English after graduation. ‎ ‎ As for suggestions about your teaching, opinions may vary from person to person, but generally, as a foreign teacher, you’d better attach more importance to foreign culture and customs rather than language teaching so as to differ from what Chinese ‎ English teachers are doing.
