Before her big break, she was living in a landfill, rooting through garbage for her next meal. - 28 - Shelby’s big break came in April 2017, when animal-control officer Megan Buhler was driving in Cheatham County. Tennessee. Out on an unrelated call, Buhler spotted and approached what she recalled was a noticeably scared puppy emerging from the dump. “I knelt down and just said, ‘Oh, come here, baby,’” said Buhler. “She was so scared, but she came right up to me, and I was able to put her in my truck.” The pair headed to the county animal shelter, where the staff began calling the new resident Baby Girl. Buhler and others didn’t know that 3,200 kilometers away, Hollywood was looking for a dog to play Bella in a film written by Cathryn Michon. The find-a-Bella job went to freelance trainer Teresa Ann Miler. Her mission was to search shelters nationwide for a dog that could play Bella. One day, Miller spotted Baby Girl’s adoption photo. “Honestly, it was a really good picture, and she was flat-out smiling,” Miller said. Then she met Baby Girl, and assessed her on personality and the ability to respond to simple commands. After assessment, she adopted Baby Girl from the shelter, renamed her Shelby and took her to California for training. Miller and Shelby trained for just over three months before filming began. Then they were together each day on the set. Most of the film’s reviews have praised Shelby’s performance. Variety made the comments “an amazing dog, perfect performance!” Shelby has come a long way from the dump. But Buhler said she saw Shelby recently had needed only a second to compare the movie star with the dog she found from piles of trash. “She’s exactly the same,” Buhler said. 36.

C. she’s really excited to see the dog she helped live such a happy life D. the dramatic change of the dog’s life hasn’t changed her inner quality 39. What do you think may serve as the best title of the passage? A. The Success of “A Dog’s Way Home” B. From a Landfill Puppy to a Movie Star C. The Trainer and Her Star Dog D. Shelby’s Hard-luck Story 【答案】36. B 37. C 38. D 39. B 【解析】 这是一篇说明文。文章介绍了一只垃圾小狗到成为一名电影明星的引人注目的经历。 【36题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段We’ve all heard the stories of an actor’s struggles before a career breakthrough: living a hard life, working part time, being a couch potato before getting that major role. Shelby, the star of “A Dog’s Way Home,” has a hard-luck tale that could top them all. Before her big break, she was living in a landfill, rooting through garbage for her next meal. 我们都听过演员在事业上取得突破之前的挣扎故事:过着艰苦的生活,兼职工作,在得到那个主要角色之前成为一个电视迷。《一条狗的回家之路》中的明星谢尔比有一个倒霉的故事,可能会超过所有人。在她的重大突破之前,她住在垃圾堆里,翻着垃圾寻找下一顿饭。由此可知,作者在一开始就提到了一个演员在事业取得突破之前的挣扎,并介绍了一只狗的类似但更引人注目的经历。故选B。 【37题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中One day, Miller spotted Baby Girl’s adoption photo. “Honestly, it was a really good picture, and she was flat-out smiling,” Miller said. Then she met Baby Girl, and assessed her on personality and the ability to respond to simple commands.一天,米勒发现了Baby - 28 - Girl的收养照片。米勒说:“说实话,这张照片拍得很好,她笑得很灿烂。”然后她遇到了Baby Girl,并对她的性格和对简单命令的反应能力进行了评估。由此可知,她的性格和能力最终帮助Baby Girl在电影中获得了重要角色。故选C。 【38题详解】 词义猜测题。根据倒数第二段中Most of the film’s reviews have praised Shelby’s performance. Variety made the comments “an amazing dog, perfect performance!”大多数影评都赞扬了谢尔比的表演。Variety评论道:“一只神奇的狗,完美的表演!”和最后一段Shelby has come a long way from the dump. But Buhler said she saw Shelby recently had needed only a second to compare the movie star with the dog she found from piles of trash. “She’s exactly the same,”谢尔比从垃圾场一路走来。但布勒说,她最近看到谢尔比只用了一秒钟就把这位电影明星和她在垃圾堆里找到的那条狗做了比较。“她完全一样”。由此可知,通过在最后一段中说“她完全一样”,布勒可能是指狗狗生活的巨大变化并没有改变她的内在品质。故选D。 【39题详解】 主旨大意题。文章介绍了一只垃圾小狗到成为一名电影明星的引人注目的经历。所以B项From a Landfill Puppy to a Movie Star.(从垃圾小狗到电影明星)为最佳标题。故选B。 (B) Tips for Taking Online Classes If you’re considering taking online college courses, the tips and advice below can help you address their unique challenges to get the most value out of your online program. 1. Hold yourself accountable Without professors actively reminding you, it’s up to you to make sure you’ve set aside enough time to complete assigned work. If you’re having trouble holding yourself accountable, pair up with a fellow classmate. By being organized and self-aware, you can get the most from your online class. 2. Practice time management. The flexibility to create your own schedule is often one of the biggest appeals of taking online classes. But that freedom can also be detrimental if you do not have solid time management skills. Without them, you might find yourself cramming - 28 - before classes or handing in poor-quality assignments. Make note of major assignments. Mark them on a calendar you check regularly so you know what workload is coming in the weeks ahead. Create a weekly schedule that you follow, designating certain hours each week to reading, watching lectures, completing assignments, studying, and participating in forums. When working on your assignments, try time-blocking, distributing yourself a certain amount of time for each task before moving on to the next one and setting a timer to keep you accountable. 3. Eliminate distractions Regardless of where you choose to work, consider turning your cell phone off to avoid losing focus every time a text message or notification pops up. And if you’re still having trouble resisting the temptation to check your email or surf the web, try downloading a website blocker. Using applications like Cold Turkey and Freedom can help eliminate distractions by blocking the apps or websites that tend to complete for your attention, such as Facebook and Twitter. Online classes are an excellent option to help you earn that degree you need to fulfill your goals such as job promotion. Though they come with their own unique challenges, following the advice above can help you be successful even in the most chaotic of times. 40. Which of the following ways keeps you from holding yourself accountable? A Surfing websites that complete for your attention. B. Writing down schedules regularly on a calender. C. Setting a timer for the task being completed. D. Finding a classmate for mutual supervision. 41. How can you eliminate distractions when having online classes? A. By ignoring notification that pops up. B. By downloading a website blocker. C. By avoiding losing focus. D. By trying time-blocking. 42. It can be inferred from the passage that _______. - 28 - A. a website blocker is used for effectively filtering useless websites B. making note of assignments helps you figure out what workload comes first C. weekly schedule involves designating certain hours to different daily routines D. time management skills help you optimize the flexibility to create your schedule 【答案】40.

Wanderlust is a common, but not universal experience. What makes some people catch that travel bug while others are apparently unaffected? One theory is to do with our genes. Scientific research has identified a variant of the DRD4 gene that affects sensitivity to dopamine (多巴胺), the neuro-transmitter often released in the brain when we do something we enjoy. Actually, it’s not that the 7R version of the DRD4 specifically creates a thirst for travel, but people with the 7R variant are less sensitive to that delicious dopamine hit. So simple things that bring other people pleasure, like a jog in the park or a cheeky chocolate treat, might not cut it for them, which makes those with the 7R type of the DRD4 gene more likely to be risk takers to get increased dopamine levels. That’s way DRD4-7R has been called the wanderlust gene. Other researches have also linked the same 7R variant to far riskier behaviours, such as addiction and offensive behaviour. By comparison, the strong sudden desire to go travelling seems like the better end of the Theory of Evolution. But another theory looks at the psychology of living in our inter-connected human society, one in which we are constantly aware of what friends and social media influencers are doing and keep comparing ourselves to them in two distinct ways. Upwards social comparisons, comparing ourselves to those we see as more successful - 28 - than us. And downward social comparisons, comparing ourselves to those we see as worse off than us. In the age of social media, it’s very easy to compare ourselves unfavourably with the idealized version. How can we compete with influencers, with their perfectly dark brown legs on neat and clean while sand, and their once in a lifetime sunsets over Machu Picchu? Whether the motivation to explore the world is genetic, psychological or something else, there are far more harmful hobbies than the desire to explore the world. Venturing outside your comfort zone, to learn about new cultures, meet people you might otherwise never have had the chance to meet, and finally, learn who you are in different situations. Sounds like a life well-lived. As the novelist Jack Kerouac said, “Because in the end, you won’t remember the time you spent in the office or mowing your lawn. Climb that goddamn mountain.” 43. The underlined phrase “catch that travel bug” in Paragraph 2 is closest in meaning to _______. A. be crazy about travelling B. be curious about travelling C. escape daily life by travelling D. experience common travelling 44. Why are people with the 7R type of the DRD4 gene more likely to have wanderlust? A. Because they are more fascinated by risks and unfamiliar things. B. Because the 7R variant cause them to be less sensitive do dopamine hit. C. Because they have comparatively higher level of dopamine than other people. D. Because the 7R variant, also called wanderlust gene, helps create a craving for travelling. 45. The author will probably agree to the statement that _______. A. a well-lived life doesn’t involve venturing outside comfortable zone B. the 7R variant is inevitably linked with some more risky behavior such as addiction C. people tend to forget their daily routine, but adventures really leave footprints in their hearts D. when people compare themselves with less successful ones, it may give rise to mixed feelings 46. What does the passage mainly talk about? - 28 - A. Wanderlust and its two main categories. B. A less harmful hobby and analysis of its different cause. C. The distinctions between gene variants and social comparisons. D. Physical and psychological reasons for the desire to explore the world. 【答案】43. A 44. B 45. C 46. D 【解析】 这是一篇说明文。有一些人有逃离日常生活、探索未知世界的强烈愿望而其他人没有。文章介绍了渴望探索世界的生理和心理的原因。 【43题详解】 词义猜测题。根据第二段中“Wanderlust” is derived from a German word meaning “a love of hiking” and now used to describe the burning desire to escape the everyday and explore the unfamiliar. Wanderlust is a common, but not universal experience. (“漫游癖”一词源于德语,意为“徒步旅行的爱好”,现在用来形容逃离日常生活、探索未知世界的强烈愿望。流浪癖是一种普遍现象,但并非普遍现象)及划线词组后的while others are apparently unaffected(而其他人显然不受影响)可知推知,划线词组的意思是“热衷于旅游”。故选A。 【44题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中Actually, it’s not that the 7R version of the DRD4 specifically creates a thirst for travel, but people with the 7R variant are less sensitive to that delicious dopamine hit.(事实上,并不是DRD4的7R版本特别引起了对旅行的渴望,而是带有7R变种的人对美味的多巴胺的刺激不那么敏感)可知,带有DRD4基因7R型的人之所以更容易产生旅游癖,是因为7R变异导致他们对多巴胺的敏感度降低。故选B。 【45题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段中Because in the end, you won’t remember the time you spent in the office or mowing your lawn. Climb that goddamn mountain.(因为到最后,你就不记得你在办公室或修剪草坪的时间了。爬那该死的山)可知,作者可能会同意这样的说法,人们往往会忘记他们的日常生活,但冒险真的会在他们的心里留下脚印。故选C。 【46题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第三段中One theory is to do with our genes. Scientific research has identified a variant of the DRD4 gene that affects sensitivity to dopamine (多巴胺), - 28 - the neuro-transmitter often released in the brain when we do something we enjoy.(一种理论是关于我们的基因。科学研究发现,DRD4基因的一个变体会影响对多巴胺的敏感度。多巴胺是一种神经递质,当我们做自己喜欢做的事情时,通常会在大脑中释放出来)和第五段中But another theory looks at the psychology of living in our inter-connected human society, one in which we are constantly aware of what friends and social media influencers are doing and keep comparing ourselves to them in two distinct ways.(但另一种理论着眼于生活在相互联系的人类社会中的心理,在这种社会中,我们不断意识到朋友和社交媒体的影响者在做什么,并以两种截然不同的方式与他们进行比较)可知,这篇文章讲述的是渴望探索世界的生理和心理的原因。故选D。 Section C Directions: Read the following passage. Fill in each blank with a proper sentence given in the box. Each sentence can be used only once. Note that there are two more sentences than you need. Instructor-centered or Learner-centered? Whether in the East or West, the chief business of traditional education is to pass to the next generation the skills, facts, and standards of moral and social conduct that adults consider to be necessary for the next generation’s material and social success. ___47___ The students work individually on assignments, and cooperation is discouraged. The result of this emphasis on what instructors do is that students may become passive learned and do not take responsibility for their own learning. Educators call this traditional method “instructor-centered teaching”. In contrast, “learner-centered teaching” occurs when instructors focus on student learning. It is an approach to teaching that is increasingly being encouraged in higher education. ___48___ These methods include active learning, in which students solve problems, answer questions, formulate questions of their own, discuss, explain, debate, or brainstorm during class; cooperative learning, in which students work in teams on problems and projects under conditions that assure both positive interdependence and individual account ability; and inductive (归纳法) teaching and learning, in which students - 28 - are first presented with challenges and learn the couse material in the context of addressing the challenges. Although learner-centered methods have repeatedly been shown to be superior to the traditional teacher-centered approach to instruction, the best teaching, according to Parker Plamer, the author of The Courage to Teach, is not one or the other, but a combination of both. ___49___ Learner-centerd teachers still need to lecture because teachers are the definitive content experts in the classroom and the knowledge and experiences of teachers can be extremely helpful to students. ___50___ They must recognize that students can learn from each other and that the deepest learning happens when students have the opportunity to practice and obtain feedback. A. Therefore, many teachers have been shifting the focus of activity from teacher to learners. B. Meanwhile, those who are teacher-centered should work to engage and involve students. C. In the traditional approach to teaching, most class time is spent with the teacher lecturing and the students watching and listening. D. This approach emphasizes a variety of different types of methods that shift the role of the instructors form givers of information to facilitators of student learning. E. Inductive methods include inquiry-based learning, case-based instruction, problem-based learning, discovery learning, and just-in-time teaching. F. The thinking that teaching is either teacher-centered or learner-centered breaks the inseparable connection and is harmful to both students and teachers. 【答案】47. C 48. D 49. F 50. B 【解析】 这是一篇说明文。无论在东方还是西方,传统教育的主要目的是将成人认为下一代获得物质和社会成功所必需的技能、事实和道德及社会行为标准传授给下一代。文章介绍目前的教学方法将教师的角色从信息提供者转变为学生学习的促进者。 - 28 - 【47题详解】 根据下文提示“学生们独立完成作业,不鼓励合作。”承接下文,C项In the traditional approach to teaching, most class time is spent with the teacher lecturing and the students watching and listening.(在传统的教学方法中,大部分的课堂时间都花在老师讲课和学生听和看上)切题。故选C。 【48题详解】 根据上文提示“这种教学方法在高等教育中受到越来越多的鼓励。”承接上文,D项This approach emphasizes a variety of different types of methods that shift the role of the instructors form givers of information to facilitators of student learning.(这种方法强调各种不同类型的方法,将教师的角色从信息提供者转变为学生学习的促进者)切题。故选D。 【49题详解】 根据上文提示“尽管以学生为中心的教学方法一再被证明优于传统的以教师为中心的教学方法,但《教学的勇气》一书的作者帕克·普拉默认为,最好的教学不是这两种方法中的一种,而是两者的结合。”承接上文,F项The thinking that teaching is either teacher-centered or learner-centered breaks the inseparable connection and is harmful to both students and teachers.(以教师为中心或以学生为中心的教学思想打破了不可分割的联系,对学生和教师都是有害的)切题。故选F。 【50题详解】 根据下文提示“他们必须认识到,学生可以互相学习,最深刻的学习发生在学生有机会练习和获得反馈的时候。”承接下文,B项Meanwhile, those who are teacher-centered should work to engage and involve students.(同时,那些以教师为中心的人应该努力让学生参与进来)切题。故选B。 Ⅳ.Summary Writing 51.Directions: Read the following passage. Summarize the main idea and the main point(s) of the passage in no more than 60 words. Use your own words as far as possible. Coco-Cola’s Innovative Solution to Plastic Pollution Plastic pollution has become one of the most pressing problem of the 21st Century with plastic waste almost everywhere. It is estimated that just in 2016, the world produced over 320 million tons of plastic, and this number is set to double by 2034. - 28 - Plastic waste even makes its way into our oceans with 8 million pieces of plastic pollution per day polluting our waters and destroying the habitat for hundreds of species. It is now believed that there may be around 5.25 trillion pieces of plastic in the ocean weighing in total up to 269,000 tons. It’s been crystal clear for a long time that the situation is horrible and something needs to be done, and fast. Luckily, Coca-Cola stepped up to the challenge and came up with one innovative and rather effective solution. The firm is replacing its plastic wrapping in Europe with a new paper board technology. This new tech is called the KeelClip and it is a first for the non-alcohol ready-to-drink (NARTD) industry. Using KeelClips, Coca-Cola aims to remove all plastic wrap from its can multipacks in all? European Union markets by the end of 2021. The firm is optimistic that the move will save 2,000 tons of plastic and 3,000 tons of CO2 annually. “Innovation is a key principle of our sustainable packaging work and the application of this fully recyclable paperboard KeelClipTM, which is composed of a top board that the cans clip into and central cardboard ‘keel’ — similar to a ship’s keel — that stabilizes the pack, is another example of how we are delivering on our commitment to remove all unnecessary and hard to recycle single- use plastic from our products. We hope this eco-friendly initative is a conscious approach to dealing with plastic pollution,” said Joe Franses, Vice President, Sustainability at Coca-Cola European Partners. 【答案】With plastic wastes invading the ocean and threatening marine lives, plastic pollution is among the most serious problems on the earth. To deal with the situation. Coca-Cola thinks of a creaive solution called KeelClip, which substitutes paper board for plastic wrapping, thus saving lots of plastic and CO2 annually. The case shows innovation behind Coca-Cola’s commitment to sustainable eco- friendly packaging. 【解析】 【分析】 这一篇概要写作。 【详解】这篇概写语言精练,从三方面概括了文章要点。根据第一段中Plastic pollution has - 28 - become one of the most pressing problem of the 21st Century with plastic waste almost everywhere.(塑料污染已经成为21世纪最紧迫的问题之一,塑料垃圾几乎无处不在)可知,With plastic wastes invading the ocean and threatening marine lives, plastic pollution is among the most serious problems on the earth.(随着塑料垃圾进入海洋,威胁着海洋生物,塑料污染是地球上最严重的问题之一);根据第二段中Luckily, Coca-Cola stepped up to the challenge and came up with one innovative and rather effective solution.(幸运的是,可口可乐公司接受了这一挑战,并提出了一个创新且相当有效的解决方案)和第三段中The firm is optimistic that the move will save 2,000 tons of plastic and 3,000 tons of CO2 annually.(该公司乐观地认为,此举每年将节省2000吨塑料和3000吨二氧化碳)可知,To deal with the situation. Coca-Cola thinks of a creaive solution called KeelClip, which substitutes paper board for plastic wrapping, thus saving lots of plastic and CO2 annually.(来处理这种情况。可口可乐公司想出了一种名为KeelClip的creaive解决方案,用纸板代替塑料包装,从而每年节省大量的塑料和二氧化碳);再根据最后一段中Innovation is a key principle of our sustainable packaging work and the application of this fully recyclable paperboard KeelClipTM,(创新是我们可持续包装工作的关键原则,这种可完全回收的纸板KeelClipTM的应用)可知,The case shows innovation behind Coca-Cola’s commitment to sustainable eco-friendly packaging.(这个案例展示了可口可乐公司对可持续环保包装的承诺背后的创新) Ⅴ.
