I don’t want to die!”‎ We ran to the shoreline.I shouted to her, “We are here; you are not going to die.We won’t let that happen.Can you swim to us?” It quickly became apparent from her distress that she had gone out there with the intention of drowning herself, but had then changed her mind.‎ After struggling for a while, she was finally pulled out of the water by us.I sat next to her and asked her name.She was my age and kept saying how sorry she was for wasting our time.I couldn’t imagine how much pain she must have been in to feel that desperate.‎ ‎“Shall I let you into a secret?” I said. “Four years ago, almost to this very hour, I was taken to an operating theatre to have a double lung transplant (移植).My life was saved by a stranger, and now here we are, strangers helping you.Please don’t apologize; we are glad to be here.”‎ That was the reason why Chris and I had taken the train to Brighton: to mark the anniversary of my transplant.Before that operation, I had to wear an oxygen mask, using a wheelchair, unable to wash by myself.But I stuck to the belief that a better life was waiting for me, if I could hold on.The woman on the beach broke my heart when she said I’‎ d deserved to get better, but that she didn’t.I told her we were both just very ill and needed to let other people help us sometimes.‎ We may get desperate sometimes, but we should always believe we’ll have a bright future.And very likely we may be helped out by a stranger.‎ 语篇解读:本文是一篇记叙文。作者和丈夫在海滩散步时,发现了一位绝望的想溺亡的女士,作者和丈夫救了她。‎ ‎4.What do we know about the author when she first saw the woman?‎ A.She thought the woman was out for a swim.‎ B.She didn’t pay much attention to the woman.‎ C.She wondered why the woman wanted to drown herself.‎ D.She was confused due to the way the woman was dressed.‎ 解析:选D 推理判断题。根据第一段的“She was fully dressed, lying on her back.We hesitated: we knew this scene wasn’t right.”可推断出作者当时感到很疑惑,不知道那位女士想做什么。‎ ‎5.What does the underlined word “distress” in Paragraph 2 mean?‎ A.Great sorrow.    B.Sudden shock.‎ C.Poor condition. D.Funny mood.‎ 解析:选A 词义猜测题。根据那位女士想自杀的语境及第三段最后一句可推断出她看起来非常悲伤。由此可知,distress意为“极大的痛苦、悲伤”。‎ ‎6.Why did the author tell the woman her story?‎ A.To show the woman’s life wasn’t good.‎ B.To explain why she saved the woman.‎ C.To let the woman show pity on her.‎ D.To make her feel a little bit better.‎ 解析:选D 推理判断题。根据上文可知,那位女士因悲伤而感到绝望从而想自杀,作者分享自己曾经非常痛苦的经历是想开导她,让她好受一些。‎ ‎7.What is the best title for the text?‎ A.An operation that saved two lives B.My experience of saving a woman’s life C.My courage to offer help to a stranger D.An important lesson I learned from a rescue 解析:选B 标题归纳题。根据文章内容可知,作者主要讲述了她和丈夫在海边救了一位女士的经历。‎ C Music expresses that which cannot be put into words and that which cannot remain silent.‎ ‎— Victor Hugo There is certainly no denying (否定) that while a holiday or trip to another country leaves you with a sense of excitement, moving to another country is something entirely different.Speaking from experience, one of the most worrying questions that play on everyone’s mind is always: how will I make friends? And it becomes even more terrible when a foreign language is thrown into the mix.‎ It is a longknown fact that music creates bonds.For a good reason, many people have fallen in love or built lifelong friendships based on mutual (共同的) appreciation for a band.No matter who you are, or where you come from, everyone listens to music in some way.‎ So: you’ve met people, you’re making friends, but you’ve only just overcome the “small talk” stages of these friendships.The next bit can sometimes be tricky.But, I always find, as soon as someone breaks the ice with the ageold question “What type of music do you listen to?” the language barriers seem to fall away.Music is something that everyone can speak excitedly about.‎ Music is one of the most important forms of selfexpression and individuality (个性), but, above all, it is a means of communication.Let’s also not forget the sense of pride you feel when you introduce someone to a new song that they like.Music is a universal language that everyone can understand.Whether you’re playing, singing or just listening, your mother tongue and cultural background become unimportant; so if you’re ever at a loss for something to say, say it with music.‎ 语篇解读:本文是一篇议论文。音乐可以突破语言的限制,有助于人们在异域他乡的生活、工作和交际。‎ ‎8.What may make people who move to another country worried?‎ A.Their foreign language is poor.‎ B.They have no good friends there.‎ C.They have no travelling experience.‎ D.Their trip cannot make them excited.‎ 解析:选A 细节理解题。根据第一段的“And it becomes even more terrible when a foreign language is thrown into the mix.”可知,语言的不熟悉会让去另一个国家的人感到担忧。‎ ‎9.What does the underlined part “good reason” refer to?‎ A.The bond. B.The love for music.‎ C.The longknown fact. D.The appreciation for a band.‎ 解析:选B 词义猜测题。根据第二段的第一句和画线词所在句中的“a band”可知,对音乐的热爱是此处提到的原因。‎ ‎10.Why does the author mention the ageold question?‎ A.To explain how to break the ice.‎ B.To teach us a good way to make friends.‎ C.To show music can help people communicate.‎ D.To prove it’s hard to cross the language barriers.‎ 解析:选C 推理判断题。文中第三段提到了一个问题,根据该段第一句和下文“the language barriers seem to fall away”可知,作者的目的是为了说明音乐能够帮助人们交流。‎ ‎11.What can we learn from the last paragraph?‎ A.Music always makes people feel proud.‎ B.Music is different from the mother tongue.‎ C.Music can help people express themselves better.‎ D.Music is more important than the cultural background.‎ 解析:选C 推理判断题。根据最后一段的“Whether you’re playing, singing or just listening, your mother tongue and cultural background become unimportant; so if you’re ever at a loss for something to say, say it with music.”可知,音乐有助于更好地表达个人的思想。‎ D Kevin Petty is a meteorologist (气象学家) and chief scientific officer for Vaisala, in Louisville, Colo.The company provides weatherrelated observations and software for governments and other groups to help guide their decisionmaking.Then where does weather come from? The sun provides energy that drives the weather.Other factors (因素) also play a role.These include Earth’s oceans, its land cover, the chemistry of its atmosphere and the planet’s rotation (旋转).If any of those were different, we’d experience different weather patterns. And if the planet were just a bare rock orbiting a star, there would be no weather at all.‎ Not so long ago in human history, weather was just something that happened.People would know generally what to expect from season to season.An area’s climate — the longterm average of weather — didn’t tend to change much from year to year.People might know to expect snow in winter, for example, and hot weather in summer.But they wouldn’t know if it’d snow on any particular day or whether some July drought (干旱)‎ ‎ would develop, putting fields of wheat at risk.‎ Today, you only need to turn on the TV or pull out your phone to have a prediction for what the upcoming weather will be.“People always say the weatherman is wrong,” notes Petty, “which is not really true.Actually, we never fault the weatherman when it’s beautiful outside, and we only notice when the forecast goes wrong.”‎ Scientists have understood the basic physics behind the weather for so long.But they require computer models and reliable weather data to turn that knowledge into reliable forecasts.Today, computers take that knowledge of what Earth is like and use it to predict the weather.And that’s one of the reasons why forecasts aren’t always right — there just aren’t enough data for those computer models to work with.‎ Nowadays, scientists are working to improve forecasts.Because of the complexity of Earth’s system, computer models still can’t reproduce everything going on with the planet, which limits the accuracy of forecasts.However, weather forecasts, imperfect as they sometimes seem, already are a key piece of knowledge in today’s world.‎ 语篇解读:本文是一篇说明文。天气预报有时候不是很准确,其中有哪些影响因素呢?‎ ‎12.What’s the main idea of the first paragraph?‎ A.There are various factors that influence weather.‎ B.More software will be used to predict the weather.‎ C.Weather has an effect on decisionmaking abilities.‎ D.The sun creates different weather patterns on Earth.‎ 解析:选A 段落大意题。根据第一段的内容可知,许多因素导致了天气形成,这些也是影响天气的因素。‎ ‎13.The example used in Paragraph 2 is just to show that climate .‎ A.is relatively stable B.is quite dependable C.is different in areas D.is easily predictable 解析:选A 推理判断题。根据第二段的“An area’s climate — the longterm average of weather — didn’t tend to change much from year to year.”可知,此处举例是为了说明气候的相对稳定性。‎ ‎14.What results in the inaccuracy of forecasts according to Kevin Petty?‎ A.The errors by computer models.‎ B.The weatherman’s carelessness.‎ C.The lack of enough weather data.‎ D.The false information from websites.‎ 解析:选C 细节理解题。根据第四段的“And that’s one of the reasons why forecasts ‎ aren’t always right — there just aren’t enough data for those computer models to work with.”可知,缺少足够的数据是导致天气预报有时候不准确的原因。‎ ‎15.What is the author most likely to mention if he continues to write?‎ A.Advantages of weather forecasts.‎ B.Difficulties weathermen are facing.‎ C.Achievements in weather prediction.‎ D.Reasons for imperfect weather forecasts.‎ 解析:选A 推理判断题。根据文章最后一句“However, weather forecasts, imperfect as they sometimes seem, already are a key piece of knowledge in today’s world.”可判断,接下来作者极有可能举例说明天气预报的重要性,即给人们的生活带来的好处。‎ Ⅱ.阅读七选五 Christmas is a time for relaxing, having fun and spending time with family and friends. 16 It can be difficult to find the motivation for study when everyone around you is having so much fun.So, here are my top five tips for revising effectively over the Christmas break.‎ ‎•Set aside a few hours a day to revise.‎ Find the best time to revise and make sure that you stick to your timetable! For example, I find that I work best in the morning. 17 ‎ ‎•Plan something fun to do every day.‎ Even if it’s just going for coffee with a friend or watching a film at home, this will give you something to look forward to and motivate you to finish your revision.‎ ‎•Explain to your family why your revision is important.‎ ‎ 18 So, make efforts to tell them why your exams are important.Perhaps you can agree to do something nice with them when your exams are over.‎ ‎• 19 ‎ It is important to take some time to relax.When you do get back to revising, you’ll probably find it easier to concentrate.Pick the most important days for you and your family to concentrate on celebrating Christmas!‎ ‎•Remember that it won’t last forever.‎ You might have to spend your Christmas revising this year, and perhaps for a few more years, but soon enough you’ll be free of exams forever. 20 Have a great Christmas and make sure you find a balance between studying and celebrating.Good luck with your exams!‎ A.Spare your time for your family.‎ B.Make sure that you take a few days off!‎ C.So I get up fairly early and do a few hours of revision.‎ D.Sometimes it can be difficult for family to understand you.‎ E.However, for many of us, it is also the time to prepare for January exams.‎ F.Otherwise, you may probably fall into trouble with your friends and family.‎ G.And after spending time revising, your future Christmases will seem even better!‎ 语篇解读:本文是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了在圣诞节期间如何有效分配复习功课和参加娱乐活动的时间。‎ ‎16.选E 根据上文的“Christmas is a time for relaxing, having fun and spending time with family and friends.”和下文中的“It can be difficult to find the motivation for study”可知,空处应填一个起承上启下作用的句子,故E项“然而,对我们中的许多人来说,这也是该为一月份的考试做准备的时候了”符合语境。‎ ‎17.选C 根据上一句可知作者在早上学习的效果最好,故选C项“因此我起得很早来进行几个小时的复习”来承接上文。‎ ‎18.选D 根据本段的小标题Explain to your family why your revision is important.及下文中的“So, make efforts to tell them why your exams are important.”可知,复习功课时获得家人的理解是很重要的。根据“so”可知,前后存在因果关系。故选D项“有时家人理解你可能是困难的”来引出下文。‎ ‎19.选B 根据第五段的内容可知,作者建议在复习功课时要做到劳逸结合,故B项“确保你休息几天”符合语境。‎ ‎20.选G 根据本段的小标题Remember that it won’t last forever.及空处前后的内容可知,G项“花费时间复习(功课)后,你未来的圣诞节似乎会更美好”符合语境。‎
