C(导学号 53990254) (2016届郑州模拟) When I began planning to move to Auckland to study, my mother was a little worried about the uncertainty of living in a place that was so different from India,where we lived. She worried particularly about the lack of jobs, the cultural differences and the chance that I would face racism. Despite these worries, I came to New Zealand in July 2009. I have found the place and people very nice and supportive. Soon after I arrived,I realized the importance of getting a job to supply my living expenses. Determined to do this on my own, I spent a whole day going from door to door asking for a job. However, I received little or no response. This became my routine every day after college for a few weeks. One afternoon, I walked into a building to ask if there were any job opportunities. The people there were very surprised, and advised me not to continue my job search in that manner. As I was about to leave, a clerk in the building, who had been listening to what the others had said, approached me and asked if I would wait outside. Fifteen minutes later, he returned. He asked me what my plans were and encouraged me to stay confident. He then offered to take me to the Royal Oak area to search for a job. I was a little surprised, but had a good feeling about him,so I went along. Along the way, I realized that I had run out of copies of my resume (简历). The man slopped at his business partner's office to make me 15 extra copies. He also gave me tips on dressing and speaking, and added that I should give him a call if I ever needed anything. I handed out my resumes and went home feeling very satisfied. The following day, I received a call from a store in Royal Oak offering me a job. It seems that the world always gives back to you when you need it. And this time, it was a complete stranger who turned out to be a real blessing. 8.What wasn't the author's mother worried about? A.People might look down on the author. B.The author couldn't speak the local language. C.The author wasn't familiar with local customs.

A.decided to go back to his own country B.felt the local people were not very friendly C.had to find a job to cover his living expenses D.wanted to get a job that needed practical skills 10.When the author went into a building to look for a job, ________.

A.How a stranger offered the author a job. B.How a stranger turned out to be a real blessing. C.How the author adapted himself to a new situation. D.How the author was helped to get a job by a stranger. D Anyone who is afraid of failure and afraid to face challenges will never taste success, so said our professor in marketing.I laughed it off at that time, but got frightened when it actually happened in my life. I landed in a small city in the Middle East to set up a firm, a worldclass car rental firm.Having decided on the project, I earnestly settled in preparation.With a positive mind, I told myself nothing should stop me now, and was more than keen to make it a success. However, the least expected thing happened.Iraq invaded Kuwait.Tension ran high in the region.Eventually the war broke out, and many people fled the country, leaving my firm in deep trouble. As usual, “things become difficult, and every effort seems to bring disappointment, it can be tempting to lower your expectations or even water down your goals and ambitions.” I was no exception.I thought of running away.I remembered the words of Thomas Edison, “Many of life's failures are people who did not realize how close they were to succeed when they gave up.” I decided to hang on, telling myself, “I am not afraid of challenges and obstacles.” I stayed on through months of uncertainty and insecurity.Finances ran low, and banks could not wait to get their dues.To add to all this, the banks even threatened to take all my vehicles.I felt I made a wrong decision to move there.I was now ready to face failure. I was living against all hopes, believing that something good would happen.After 2 months the war ended.My persistence paid off: people started flooding back and the car bookings picked up, five times over. Success comes to the one who dares, even after failure, to think positively and look forward confidently.After all, it is only the experience that makes a man tough.Failure does not mean you will never make it.It means that it will take a little longer.It provides us with a learning experience. 12.The main method the author uses to support his understanding of his professor's viewpoint is ________. A.offering analyses B.providing explanations C.making comparisons D.giving examples 13.How did the author feel when the war between Iraq and Kuwait broke out? A.Unconfident. B.Indifferent. C.Nervous. D.Calm. 14.What does the underlined phrase “water down” in the 4th paragraph probably mean? A.Get rid of. B.Smooth away. C.Make less forceful. D.Improve on. 15.The author's purpose of writing the passage is most likely to ________. A.inform B.persuade C.describe D.entertain 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。 __16__ But science may have just proved them right—because beautiful women are more likely to have daughters than their plainer counterparts (极相似的人), according to a study. As parents tend to pass on genes that determine looks, this could result in handsome men becoming rather thin on the ground.__17__ For example, Yasmin Le Bon is signed to the same modelling agency as daughter Amber, and Jerry Hall's daughters Elizabeth and Georgia Jagger have both taken to the catwalk (狭窄的人行道). Dr.Satoshi Kanazawa, of the London School of Economics, analysed data from a survey of 17,000 babies born in Britain in March 1958 and tracked them throughout their lives.__18__ When they reached 45, they were asked about the gender of any children they had. Those rated as attractive were equally likely to have a son or a daughter as their first child—but the unattractive sorts were more likely to have a son.__19__ Dr.Kanazawa believes that parents tend to produce children who benefit from their own features.__20__ So it pays for attractive women to have daughters.But couples blessed with strength and aggression rather than looks are better off having boys, as these characteristics are of more use to males. A.Women are becoming more beautiful over the generations because attractive women have more children than plain ones. B.Single girls have always complained that goodlooking men are difficult to find. C.Beauty is of more benefit to a woman than a man. D.At the age of seven, their attractiveness was rated by their teachers. E.Put another way, the beautiful women were more likely to have daughters. F.And it may also explain why many models have daughters who follow in their fascinating footsteps. G.Famously goodlooking parents like Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes are more likely to have girls than uglier couples.

The school says that the uniform hairstyle can save time for students to concentrate in studying.In fact, a simple pigtail won't take a long time to do it.Secondly, school students wear their hair properly long will not only protect the head from severely cold or severe heat but will also make the wearer look nicer.What's more, some students think the hairstyle is the personal matter.If the school insists making students obey the rules, it will only make the students more distant from his teachers. I believe students should have the freedom of choose their own hairstyle.

As with other species of toucans, the size of the Keelbilled Toucan's bill does not affect the balance of the bird itself as its bill is made out of keratin, which is very light but still very strong. The Keelbilled Toucan is native to the jungles of South America where it lives in holes in the trees, often with several other Keelbilled Toucans.In order to make sure that there is enough space for them all, the Keelbilled Toucan group all sleep with their bill and tail under their body to create more room for the other birds. The Keelbilled Toucan has a diet with large quantities of different kinds of fruit.However, because of the surprising dexterity of its bill, the Keelbilled Toucan also eats bird eggs and insects, if there's not enough fruit. The Keelbilled Toucan is an extremely sociable bird and is very hard to be seen on its own.As well as nesting together, the Keelbilled Toucan travels in small groups.Different from what people think though, the Keelbilled Toucan is not very good at flying and does most of its moving about by jumping between the tree branches. A female Keelbilled Toucan lays between 1 and 5 eggs in the hole of a tree, which usually hatch within a few weeks.Both the male and female Keelbilled Toucan hatch the eggs and both Keelbilled Toucan parents also feed and look after their babies until they are old enough and strong enough to protect themselves. 1.How does the Keelbilled Toucan save space for other birds? A.By sleeping with others closely. B.By finding a bigger hole in the tree. C.By sleeping in groups of more than three. D.By putting certain organs under their body. 2.According to the passage, people often think that the Keelbilled Toucan ________. A.can fly very well B.won't eat bird eggs C.often lives alone D.often jumps around 3.After the Keelbilled Toucan's babies are born, the babies are looked after ________. A.by other birds B.only by female Keelbilled Toucans C.by both parents D.only by male Keelbilled Toucans B Parttime Front Desk Position Fuse Fitness is looking for a parttime front desk receptionist (接待员) at our new Carlsbad location.

C (2016届河南百校联盟高三质监) You may think, salt is just a simple cooking element we shake on our food for a little extra taste.But salt is much more than that.Without salt our muscles would not move.Our nervous systems would not operate.Our hearts would not beat. But do not think rubbing salt in a wound will help.Doing that would be painful and not heal the wound.To rub salt in a wound is an idiom that means to purposefully make a bad situation worse. Early humans got the salt they needed to stay alive from the animals they killed.But advances in agriculture led to a diet low in salt.So, humans needed to find other sources.Those who lived near the ocean or other natural sources for salt were lucky.Those who did not had to trade for salt.In fact, people used salt as a method of payment in many parts of the ancient world.The word “salary” comes from the word “salt”. Salt also played an important part in population movement and world exploration.Explorers understood that if they could keep food fresh, they could travel longer distances.So they used salt to preserve food and explored the world. Salt was so important that, according to food historians, it was traded poundforpound for gold.Today, people still use the expressions “to be worth one's salt” or “worth one's weight in salt”.The expressions describe a person of value. A person might also be called salt of the earth.That description means he or she is dependable and trustworthy.However, when you say “I think we should take what he said with a grain of salt” you mean you accept it but maintain a degree of doubt about its truth. 8.What can we learn from the first paragraph? A.Salt plays an important part in our life. B.Salt makes food tasty. C.Salt is considered to be part of our muscles. D.Salt is sure to damage nervous systems. 9.A beggar's bread was stolen last night, which means ________. A.salt of the earth B.rubbing salt in a wound C.a diet low in salt D.worth his salt 10.If you describe a person as a great help, you mean ________. A.he is called salt of the earth B.he is often taken as a grain of salt C.he often uses salt to preserve meat D.he is worth his weight in salt 11.Which of the following is the best title for the passage? A.Salt Is More Than a Fourletter Word. B.Salt Is a Basic Element in Cooking. C.Salt Is a Word with a Long History. D.Salt Is Popular with Different Persons. D(导学号 53990260) (2016届江西模拟) Monty Hempel is a professor of environmental sciences at Redlands University in California.He studies ecological literacy—or ecoliteracy, for short.Ecoliteracy is the ability to think about and understand the natural processes that make life possible. Monty Hempel says ecoliteracy gives people knowledge about environmental problems.But he says it does not always work to get them to change their behaviors. Mr.Hempel wrote part of the Worldwatch Institute's latest State of the World report.He says in his article, “Some people think that ecoliteracy is just a green form of science literacy.And what I have tried to ask is whether that's enough.In other words, what an ecologicallyliterate person needs to know might include things like the cycles and the flows, the energy systems, all of those kind of things that we would call the science of ecology.” “That doesn't seem to lead to action to protect our environment—to protect our lifesupport system to the level that we need to.Just because we know a lot about the environment doesn't mean that we actually act to save it.After all, actions speak louder than knowledge.” He adds that people may not be very worried about environmental problems if they seem far away.“Some people call it psychological distance.A lot of climate issues are worse in the Arctic and most of us don't spend time in the Arctic.And so, there's a certain distance.But there's also a distance that's happening in the world as it urbanizes—people spending more time in front of screens and less time out in nature.We become, if you will, disconnected from the natural systems that used to be the key to success for a human being.” To help children discover the wonders of nature, he adds that children should learn about nature in school.But he also points out we have a high mountain for people to climb from knowledge to action. 12.From what Monty Hempel says in Paragraph 3, we learn that ________. A.knowledge on environmental protection is not enough B.knowledge that children learn in school is useless C.ecoliteracy can help people understand how nature works D.people with enough knowledge will protect the environment well 13.What is especially important for environmental protection in Mr.Hempel's opinion? A.Knowledge. B.Action. C.Green living. D.Psychological distance. 14.Mr.Hempel thinks people show no concern about some environmental problems because ________. A.they lack knowledge on environmental protection B.they have no awareness of environmental protection C.some environmental problems are not worse at all D.some environmental problems happened far away 15.What can be inferred from the last paragraph? A.Experts think it is the best way to learn nature in school. B.Climbing a high mountain is a good way to exercise well. C.Climbing people's attitude to environmental protection is hard. D.Knowledge can help children take action to protect the environment. 第二节 (共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)(导学号 53990261) 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。 (2016届赣州市十三县市期中联考) For a lot of parents, sending their kids off to college is a bittersweet experience.I think a lot of teenagers head to college without any idea about how money works.Don't let that happen to your college kid.Help them understand these issues before they step into that first class. ●Budget, budget, budget.__16__ So start by making sure you understand budgeting and have begun to use it as part of your financial plan. ●Independence means responsibility.Living away from home means you have to take care of yourself.__17__ Food doesn't just drop out of the sky, and gas doesn't magically appear in their car.Independence means responsibility. ●__18__ Even if your kid is going to a small community college, they'll still probably have a few thousand dollars of tuition to pay.If you break it down, one class can cost $1,000 at the very minimum! And that doesn't even include books. ●Choose a major wisely.__19__ This isn't a must before they step on campus, but simply plant a seed that gets them started thinking about what they want to do with their life.You don't want them graduating with a degree that leaves them unfulfilled or unable to find a job. ●Friends matter.__20__ Who you hang out with definitely influences how you spend money and the decisions you make.Without being overbearing, remind them how important it is to have positive friends who build them up instead of bringing them down. Remember, as a parent, just be there for support and to strengthen these principles throughout their college experience. A.College isn't cheap. B.Cherish your opportunity.

The construction of a bridge over the East River had been discussed since the early 19th century, but the outbreak of the Civil War in 1861 deflected all consideration of the project.When the war ended in 1865, the bridge became an important issue once more.In 1867, the New York State passed an act setting up the New York Bridge Company for the purpose of constructing a bridge between Manhattan Island and Brooklyn. John Augustus Roebling was chosen to design the bridge.Born in Germany in 1806, he held aggressive views as a student and was listed by the German police as a dangerous figure.He emigrated to America in 1830 to escape political discrimination. Roebling proposed a bridge with a span of 1,500 feet (465m), with two towers in the East River serving as the main piers.The bridge that was actually built is longer—1,597 feet (486m), the longest suspension bridge at that time. 1.What was the purpose of building the Brooklyn Bridge? A.To replace an old bridge. B.To set up a model for bridge construction. C.To build a longspan bridge for the Civil War. D.To provide faster and safer transportation than boats. 2.Which of the following is closest in meaning to “deflected” in the second paragraph? A.blocked B.developed C.deserved D.indicated 3.Which of the following is TRUE about the Brooklyn Bridge? A.It was built in 1865. B.It is shorter than originally planned. C.It was first proposed after the Civil War. D.It was built by the New York Bridge Company. 4.According to the passage, which of the following correctly describes John Augustus Roebling? A.He participated in the Civil War and was seriously wounded. B.He was the first person to propose the construction of the bridge. C.He was chosen to design the bridge because of his aggressive views. D.He moved to America because he was discriminated against in his home country. B There is a popular belief among parents that schools are no longer interested in spelling.No school I have taught in has ever ignored spelling or considered it unimportant as a basic skill.There are,however,vastly different ideas about how to teach it,or how much priority it must be given over in general language development and writing ability.The problem is,how to encourage a child to express himself freely and confidently in writing without holding him back with the complexities of spelling? If spelling becomes the only focal point of his teacher's interest,clearly a bright child will be likely to “play safe”.He will tend to write only words within his spelling range,choosing to avoid adventurous language.That's why teachers often encourage the early use of dictionaries and pay attention to content rather than technical ability. I was once shocked to read on the bottom of a sensitive piece of writing about a personal experience:“This work is terrible!There are far too many spelling errors and your writing is illegible.” It may have been a sharp criticism of the pupil's technical abilities in writing,but it was also a sad reflection on the teacher who had omitted to read the essay,which contained some beautiful expressions of the child's deep feelings.The teacher was not wrong to draw attention to the errors,but if his priorities had centered on the child's ideas,an expression of his disappointment with the presentation would have given the pupil more motivation to seek improvement. 5.Teachers differ in their opinions about ________. A.the difficulties in teaching spelling B.the necessity of teaching spelling C.the complexities of the basic writing skills D.the role of spelling in general language development 6.The expression “play safe” probably means “________”. A.to write carefully B.to avoid using words one is not sure of C.to do as teachers say D.to use dictionaries frequently 7.Teachers encourage the use of dictionaries so that ________. A.teachers will have less trouble in correcting mistakes B.students will have more confidence in writing C.students will be able to express their ideas more freely D.students will learn to be independent of teachers 8.The major point discussed in the passage is ________. A.the relationship between spelling and content of a composition B.the importance of developing writing skills C.the correct way of marking compositions D.the complexities of spelling C(导学号 53990265) (2016届山西模拟) The human body is designed to move.But modern lifestyles and office jobs rarely give us the chance to move around.As we know, we're what we eat; we sit in the car and we sit while we are watching TV.And many of us sit for many hours at work. New research shows that sitting less than three hours a day might extend your life by two years.Peter Katzmarzyk, a scientist at the University of Louisiana in the southern United States, says that sitting is ubiquitous in our lives, meaning it is something we do all the time, everywhere. However, Mr.Katzmarzyk says that does not mean you can sit for the rest of your waking hours.He also says you may exercise often, “We can't throw away physical activity.It's extremely important.We have 60 years of research showing us that.” Mr.Katzmarzyk and his colleagues are part of a new generation of researchers studying how sitting all day affects length of life.“Studies that have assessed the relationship between sitting and mortality (死亡率) or television viewing and mortality are very rare.There's only been a few of them, actually five or six now, in the last four or five years.” They found that cutting television time to less than two hours a day could add onepoint four years to life. Luckily, change is already coming to some offices, especially in the design of desks.A “standing desk” lets people stand while they work.Another new design is called the “treadmill desk”.A treadmill is an exercise machine that lets you walk in one place.Even some U.S.schools are beginning to experiment with desks that are part bicycle to keep children moving.That's one of the strategies that many companies are using now. Mr.Katzmarzyk also says studying this problem has inspired his team to make a few changes in their own lives. 9.The underlined word “ubiquitous” is closest in meaning to ________. A.dangerous B.awkward C.comfortable D.common 10.Which view agrees with the opinion of Mr.Katzmarzyk? A.Sitting too long may help increase one's life. B.Exercise is important and don't sit too long. C.Watching TV is bad, but can broaden one's horizons. D.Stopping watching TV is a necessary but hard task. 11.What does Mr.Katzmarzyk think of his study in Paragraph 4? A.It's a relatively new area of study. B.It's a hot subject studied by experts. C.It's a study that begins too late. D.It's not ignored by many experts. 12.Why are the desks of all kinds designed for those who sit more? A.To give them more comfort. B.To improve their work efficiency. C.To offer them the chance to exercise. D.To seek pleasure while working. D Once upon a time there was a spring (弹簧) who lived safely inside a pen.Although he heard many noises coming from the outside, he lived believing that outside his world inside the pen, there was nothing good.He was content to spend his life compacting and stretching (拉长) himself again and again inside that tiny space. However, one day, when the pen's owner changed the ink, there was an accident.The pen broke and the spring was flung (抛) through the air and landed in the toilet drain (排水管), well out of sight.Terrified, the spring was flushed (冲走) through pipe after pipe, each time thinking it might be his end.During the journey, he did not dare to open his eyes out of pure fear.Nor did he stop crying.Swept away by the water, he traveled on and on, until he came to a river.When the river current lost its force, and the spring could see that things had calmed down a bit, he stopped crying and listened all around him.Hearing birdsong and wind in the trees, he felt encouraged to finally open his eyes.What the spring saw was the pure water of the river, the rich green rocks of the riverbed, and colorful fish.Now he understood that the world was much greater than the space inside the pen, and that there had always been many things outside, waiting to be enjoyed. He went over to the riverbank, and found a field of flowers.There he heard weeping.He followed the sound, which took him to a lovely flower that had been bent by a rabbit, and could no longer stand up straight.The spring realized that he could help the flower, so he offered to be his support.The flower slipped through the middle of the spring.There they lived happily together.And they would always laugh when remembering how the spring used to think that all there was to life was being a fearful spring. 13.What does the underlined word “compacting” in the first paragraph mean? A.To make sth.spread widely. B.To let sth.grow as long as possible. C.To take away some weight from sth. D.To press sth.together firmly. 14.Why did the spring always keep his eyes closed on his way to the river? A.Because he was too scared to see what was happening. B.Because dirt would get into his eyes if he opened his eyes. C.Because his eyes couldn't get used to the cold water. D.Because he was afraid of the extreme dark on his way. 15.Which is the route that the spring traveled? A.The flower field—the river—the riverbed—the drain—the riverbank. B.The drain—the river—the riverbank—the riverbed—the flower field. C.The drain—the river—the riverbed—the riverbank—the flower field. D.The flower field—the drain—the river—the riverbank—the riverbed. 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。 (2016届山西省八校高三上学期期末联考) Simple Ways to Get Happy We are not suggesting that you can reach a permanent state called “happiness” and remain there.But there are many ways to turn the path of anxiety, anger, and sadness into a state of happiness.Here are four ideas to get you started.__16__ 1.Laugh out loud.

B(导学号 53990269) Cheaters called “pirates” often use camcorders (便携式摄像机) and cell phones to make illegal copies of blockbusters (大片) in the local theater.These pirates then sell those recordings on the street or over the Internet for very low prices.Some share them for free. “It's unfair for people to pirate movies,” says 15yearold Hadaia Azad Ezzulddin.Movie piracy “takes money out of the pockets of thousands of people in the movie industry,” she notes.Victims include famous actors and directors as well as local theater owners and their employees. Hadaia came up with an idea that could help stop movie piracy.Hadaia's idea uses infrared (红外线的) light.This range of light is invisible to the human eye.It is visible, however, to many types of cameras.Theater owners could place small infrared lights on their movie screens.The lights would not disturb people watching the movie.It would, however, distort the recordings made by many types of cameras. To test her idea, Hadaia built a box with a movie screen inside.Then, she projected images on that screen through a hole in the box.She took recordings of those images, using nine different types of cameras.These included the types found in cell phones as well as camcorders.During some tests, she also turned on light emitting diodes (发光二极管), or LEDs.The LEDs were embedded (植入的) in a certain place behind the movie screen.They gave out infrared light. Sure enough, she showed, a pirated movie included odd stripes or spots if it had been recorded while the LEDs were on.It might be possible to use the LEDs to flash the date and time on the movie screen.The information would then appear in the illegal recordings.Theater owners or police might use the information to track down the pirates. Cutting down on piracy might get more people into theaters to watch the real movie instead of an illegal copy.Six out of every ten films now produced aren't profitable.They don't make enough money to recover how much was spent to make and market them.Such a poor payback can discourage filmmakers from producing anything but the types expected to become blockbuster hits.It might also keep smaller theaters from showing a wider variety of movie types. 4.From what Hadaia says in Paragraph 2, we can infer that ________. A.most people spend less money on pirates moves B.the pirates don't have to pay for the movie tickets C.theater owners will increase the price of movie tickets D.she strongly criticizes those who video movies in the theater 5.Infrared lights are put on the movie screens to ________. A.adjust the brightness of the movie screens B.make sure the images of movies are dark C.make illegal copies of movies unpleasant to see D.protect the eyesight of viewers in the darkness 6.What is the correct order of the steps in Hadaia's test? a.She projected pictures on the screen. b.She used cameras to record the pictures. c.She turned on the LEDs placed behind the screen. d.She made a special box with a movie screen inside. A.d,c,a,b B.d,b,a,c C.b,a,c,d D.b,c,a,d 7.According to the last paragraph,we can know that ________. A.forty percent of movies now are profitable B.small theaters often choose to show lowcost movies C.more and more people go to theaters to fight movie piracy D.filmmakers prefer to produce ordinary movies than blockbusters C I am always nervous when I get an email from my parents with “FYI (For Your Information)”.My parents are in their late 70s, and while they are quite healthy for their ages, I worry about what messages they are going to give me. I got such an email in September from my father.He sent an email from my cousin who told that her father, my uncle Reese, had passed away.The news made my mind go blank though I have met him less than a dozen times in my life, because Reese was the first of my parents' siblings (兄弟姐妹) to die, and I was simply not ready for that. The memorial service was set in Florida, and I quickly decided I needed to go.I needed to be there for my father, and I needed to go for myself.Reese is about nine years older than my father, and I started to do the math in my head.I know that doesn't make sense, but I will do anything to reason that I still have a lot of time before I will be in my cousin's shoes. Reese's memorial service was small with only family and perhaps a dozen of his friends.The funeral was attended by an even smaller number, and then, the family gathered at a nearby bar to look at old photographs found among Reese's possessions when he died. As we drove back to the Orlando International Airport, I thought about how I am not sure what my parents want, not only in their memorial services, but also how they want to be remembered and where they want to be laid to rest.These are going to be difficult conversations, but I know I need to have them.Maybe not right now, but we do need to open the discussion at some point.It may feel too early, but I trust my parents will know that when adult children raise these questions, we do it out of love to honor their lives and their wishes. 8.Why do emails with “FYI” make the author uneasy? A.She's too busy to read those emails. B.She dislikes her parents' nonstop talking. C.They often bring unpleasant news. D.She's afraid to get bad news about her parents. 9.How did the author feel about the email from her cousin? A.Disappointed. B.Shocked. C.Confused. D.Annoyed. 10.What do we know from the third and fourth paragraphs? A.A gettogether was held at home. B.Reese's friends didn't appear. C.Not many people attended the funeral. D.The author hesitated to go to Florida. 11.What does the author decide to do after the funeral? A.Express her love for her parents bravely. B.Have a talk with her parents about death. C.Value her parents' wishes. D.Get everything ready for her parents. D Water Robots Explore the Celtic Sea Scientists in England are using two selfdirected water vehicles to explore the animal and plant life of the Celtic Sea.The Celtic Sea is a body of water off the southern coast of Ireland.The area is known for its exceptional sea life.Scientists want to know why sea animals are so attracted to this part of the Atlantic Ocean. One of the research vehicles is powered by batteries.It collects information for the National Oceanography Center in Southampton, England, and the World Wildlife Fund.The vehicle's low energy requirements permit it to stay afloat for up to 30 days.Reports of what it finds in the Celtic Sea are sent by satellite.Stephen Woodward is an engineer who helped design the craft.He says the vehicle has equipment that can detect small organisms called zooplankton and fish.He adds that other sensing devices measure water currents and other features of sea life.The vehicle also creates a twodimensional (二维的) map of the sea. Another vehicle is powered by solar panels and a wind turbine (涡轮机).It can stay afloat for months.The robotic vehicle sends information about the socalled biodiversity hotspots.A biodiversity hotspot is an area of an ocean that has a lot of plant and animal life activities.Lavinia Suberg is one of the scientists studying the biodiversity of the Celtic Sea.She says productive ocean areas, like the Celtic Sea, attract zooplankton.The zooplankton then attract fish.She adds that areas with a large increase of fish often attract sea mammals and birds. Using these robotic ocean vehicles greatly reduces the cost of exploring the seas with manned laboratories.Scientists can spend more time analyzing the collected information.They say the research will give them a better understanding of the needs of the Celtic Sea for future management and protection. 12.Scientists go to the Celtic Sea to explore ________. A.why this area appeal to sea animals B.what the Celtic Sea really desires C.whether the expense can be reduced D.how this area can be better protected 13.According to Paragraph 2, the research vehicle ________.

A.Both of the vehicles are powered by batteries. B.Neither of the vehicles can stay for months. C.The vehicles help reduce both time and money. D.Reports are sent by the scientists themselves. 15.What is the purpose of the passage? A.To call on us to protect the sea. B.To introduce two water robots. C.To inform us of sea exploration. D.To arouse our interest in sea life. 第二节 (共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)(导学号 53990270) 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。 (2016年山东省日照市高三一模) You want your essay to be the one that is passed around the admissions office—or not. It's a little bit like the difference between being famous and infamous. We all know that a truthful,wellwritten essay that shows how the student has matured is sometimes shared among admissions staffers.__16__ So how do you make your essay famous instead of infamous? Here are some basic tips to avoid that infamous essay: ●Avoid the generic(概括的)and get specific.Don't write that you're “fullydeveloped” or that “many people have impacted” you.__17__ ●Don't repeat information that is elsewhere in your application.__18__ It is important for the student to use every opportunity to show who they are and impress the admissions office. ●__19__ If you have gone through difficult circumstances,you should share your story. But don't blame others.It's important to show perseverance(毅力).A better essay will talk about how you have dealt with and overcome the obstacles you came across. ●Don't talk about rankings.Many students love focusing on the numbers when they are writing their “why this college” essay.__20__ Obviously schools are aware of their rankings.They want to know why you want to attend. A.They believe they are praising the college by mentioning the fact that the college is highly ranked. B.It also shows the reader that you are thinking about his or her appreciation of your writing. C.Don't complain. D.For example, it is not necessary to share your participation level in your essay. E.But I'm guessing that there are a lot more essays that produce laughter and gasps of “not again”. F.Don't try to cover everything in an essay. G.Tell the reader what you've done,how you've been influenced,and by whom.

With so many college students graduating with large amounts of credit card debt (figures vary, but most are at least in the thousands), learning how to manage a student credit card can be an important lesson for any student.While using a card wisely can be an important part of building credit and making it through a difficult time, knowing how to use a card wisely can be the hard part. Stick to the following rules when, and if, you need to use a credit card: You can repay the charge(s) within the card's next billing cycle. You must meet your basic needs, like food, clothing and shelter, but set rules and be aware that you will need to repay those charges at the end of the month. You can talk to the financial aid office in your school for an alternative in―emergency situations.If you do want a credit card, just be smart about it.(They let you in to that school because of your brain, right?) Don't automatically get the first one you find.Shop around for a card that has the lowest interest rate possible, and consider places that may not be advertising on campus.Additionally, be aware of any card's repayment options: When will payments be due? How much will they be? A credit card is not like a loan that comes with a grace period(宽限期)after you graduate and waits until you are done with school.That new sweater and nice dinner out will need to be paid back right away. 1.What does the underlined phrase in Paragraph 1 mean? A.Be confused by. B.Be terribly hurt by. C.Be attracted by. D.Be surrounded by. 2.Which of the following statements is TRUE? A.A college freshman should be careful when choosing a credit card. B.Students should take a lesson about how to use a credit card wisely. C.A credit card will be the only help for students in emergency situations. D.The author doesn't appreciate the idea of having a credit card on campus. 3.What's the best title for this passage? A.Economic Tips for College Students B.Dos and Don'ts in Using Student Credit Cards C.Mistakes about Student Credit Cards Use in College D.Student Credit Cards—What You Need to Know 4.If this is a passage of a college newspaper, in which column can we read it? A.Entertainment. B.Advertisement. C.Economy. D.Education. B The person you are meeting for the first time does not know you and your appearance is usually the first clue he or she evaluates you. But it certainly does not mean you need to look like a model to create a strong and positive first impression. The key to a good impression is to present yourself appropriately. They say a picture is worth a thousand words,and so the “picture” you first present says much about you to the person you are meeting.Is your appearance saying the right things to help create the right first impression? Start with the way you dress.What is the appropriate dress for the meeting or occasion?In a business setting,what is the appropriate business clothes?And ask yourself what the person you'll be meeting is likely to wear—if your contact is in advertising or the music industry,a pinstripe business suit may not strike the right note! For business and social meetings,appropriate dress also varies between countries and cultures,so it's something that you should pay particular attention to when in an unfamiliar setting or country.Make sure you know the traditions and norms. And what about your personal grooming?Clean and tidy appearance is appropriate for most business and social occasions.A good haircut or shave.Clean and tidy clothes.Neat and tidy makeup.Make sure your grooming is appropriate and helps make you feel “the part”. Appropriate dressing and grooming help make a good first impression and also help you feel “the part”,and so feel more calm and confident.Add all of this up and you are well on your way to creating a good first impression. 5.From the passage,we know the key to a good impression is ________. A.to have tidy appearance B.to have a good look C.to present yourself properly D.to wear clean clothes 6.“The ‘picture’” in the fourth paragraph refers to ________. A.the one you bought B.your appearance that you present C.the picture you have painted recently D.your photo 7.It can be inferred from the passage that ________. A.a pinstripe business suit is suitable for the music industry B.appropriate dress is different in different countries and cultures C.clean and tidy appearance is appropriate for all the business and social occasions D.creating a good impression is to let yourself look like a model C(导学号 53990275) (2016年广东四校第一次联考) The Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) is a private research university in Cambridge, Massachusetts, founded in 1861 in response to the increasing industrialization of the United States.The institute stressed laboratory instruction in applied science and engineering.MIT's early emphasis on applied technology at the undergraduate and graduate levels led to close cooperation with industry.Curricular reforms under Karl Compton and Vannevar Bush in the 1930s emphasized basic science.MIT was elected to the Association of American Universities in 1934.Today, the institute comprises various academic departments with a strong emphasis on scientific, engineering, and technological education and research. MIT is one of the most selective higher learning institutions, and received 18,357 undergraduate applicants for the class of 2018—only admitting 1,419, an acceptance rate of 7.73%. MIT's 168acre campus spans approximately a mile of the north side of the Charles River basin in the city of Cambridge.The campus is divided roughly in half by Massachusetts Avenue, with most dormitories and student life facilities to the west and most academic buildings to the east.MIT's oncampus nuclear reactor is one of the most powerful universitybased nuclear reactors in the United States.In 1999 Bill Gates donated $20 million to MIT for the construction of computer laboratory named the “William H.Gates Building”.While Microsoft had previously given financial support to the institution, this was the first personal donation received from Gates.Other notable campus facilities include a pressurized wind tunnel and a towing tank for testing ship and ocean structure designs. 8.From the passage, we know MIT ________. A.is a public research university in Cambridge, Massachusetts B.became a member of the Association of American Universities in 1934 C.was founded to improve the development of agriculture of the United States D.at present puts emphasis on applied technology 9.If there are 30,000 undergraduates applying for admission to MIT, only about ________ of them will succeed. A.1,319 B.2,319 C.3,319 D.4,319 10.On MIT's campus, you can't find ________. A.Massachusetts Avenue B.a nuclear reactor C.a pressurized wind tunnel D.the Charles River 11.The passage is written mainly to ________. A.present Bill Gate's contributions to MIT B.encourage more students to apply to MIT C.give a brief introduction of MIT D.attract more visitors to Massachusetts D(导学号 53990276) (2015年福建卷) Life can be so wonderful, full of adventure and joy.It can also be full of challenges, setbacks (挫折) and heartbreaks.Whatever our circumstances, we generally still have dreams, hopes and desires—that little something more we want for ourselves and our loved ones.Yet knowing we can have more can also create a problem, because when we go to change the way we do things, up come the old patterns and pitfalls (陷阱) that stopped us from seeking what we wanted in the first place. This tension between what we feel we can have and what we're seemingly able to have is the niggling (烦人的) suffering, the anxiety we feel.This is where we usually think it's easier to just give up.But we're never meant to let go of the part of us that knows we can have more.The intelligence behind that knowing is us—the real us.It's the part that believes in life and its possibilities.If you drop that, you begin to feel a little “dead” inside because you're dropping “you”. So, if we have this capability but somehow life seems to keep us stuck, how do we break these patterns? Decide on a new course and make one decision at a time.This is good advice for a new adventure or just getting through today's challenges. While, deep down, we know we can do it, our mind—or the minds of those close to us—usually says we can't.That isn't a reason to stop, it's just the mind, that little man or woman on your shoulder, trying to talk you out of something again.It has done it many times before.It's all about starting simple and doing it now. Decide and act before overthinking.When you do this you may feel a little, or large, release from the jail of your mind and you'll be on your way. 12.It can be inferred from the first two paragraphs that we should ________. A.slow down and live a simple life B.be careful when we choose to change C.stick to our dreams under any circumstances D.be content with what we already have 13.What is the key to breaking the old patterns? A.To focus on every detail. B.To decide and take immediate action. C.To listen to those close to us. D.To think twice before we act. 14.Which of the following best explains the underlined part in the last paragraph? A.Escape from your punishment. B.Realization of your dreams. C.Freedom from your tension. D.Reduction of your expectations. 15.What does the author intend to tell us? A.It's easier than we think to get what we want. B.It's important to learn to accept sufferings in life. C.It's impractical to change our way of thinking. D.It's harder than we expect to follow a new course. 第二节 (共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)(导学号 53990277) 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。 Many people want to grow their own garden, but they simply do not have the room.Do not worry.__16__ Consider container gardening. The great thing about container gardening is that you can use a variety of different containers.__17__ You could create a beautiful garden with things such as cement blocks, hanging baskets, clay pots, or window boxes.There are so many options when it comes to container gardening; it is only limited by your imagination. Of course, you will want to take the following into consideration when you are ready to begin container gardening, in order for it to be successful.First, you should avoid any containers that have been used to store chemicals, as well as treated wood.__18__ Second, with any container that you choose, you need to ensure that it has adequate drainage (排水系统).It may be necessary for you to create holes in the container to help this along.You should also make sure the containers are placed on a raised surface, not upon the floor, to ensure the best possible drainage.Third, ensure that the containers you choose are appropriate in size for the plants you choose.__19__ If you like fresh veggies, you could consider container gardening with vegetables.This requires a process that differs from that of flower gardening.__20__ They can help you choose the right containers for the vegetables you are wishing to grow.

B I resisted for years becoming anything like my dad or at least acknowledging that I was anything like him because,well,because I wanted to be me,not him; but there I sat at his memorial service several months ago,telling myself,“You've got a lot more of your dad in you than you think.” There's this phrase my dad used,and I know I'm going to sound rude to complain about it,but it did use to bother me.“I'm so proud of you,” he told us kids,whether we'd won a sailing race or run a marathon or managed to get a book published.“I'm so proud of you.” That should be a good thing,but here's what always went through my unforgiving mind: You're taking credit for what isn't really yours but mine.“I'm so proud of you.” It came out of my dad's mouth all the time,on those longdistance calls where I might have mentioned something that happened at work or when he and mom came to visit and we showed off the talents of our two boys. I knew the feeling of parental pride well,especially when my boys achieved in ways that were beyond my comprehension and ability,but I looked for other ways to express it.“That's an incredible story you've written,” I would say about the composition.“I can't believe how fast you solved that problem,” I would admire the work of the math genius.But never just the blanket phrase. But there I was at Dad's memorial,about to praise him,thinking that I could say exactly what my brother said,“He lets me be me.” That was his achievement.In the phrase that I promised I would never utter to my children was a world of forgiveness,care and appreciation.So just the other day when my older son,now a promising manager,sent me an email about the thankyou dinner his latest client threw him,I thought hard for clever things to say,finally realizing my kids just want what my dad gave me.“I'm so proud of you,” I wrote.Just like the old man. 5.What do we know from Paragraph 1?

C(导学号 53990280) (2016年甘肃模拟) Tu Youyou, the 85yearold Chinese pharmacologist(药理学家),received the Nobel Prize for medicine in Stockholm on December 10,2015.Tu is the first Chinese Nobel winner in physiology (生理学) or medicine.Also, in 2011, she became the first Chinese person to receive the USbased Lasker Award for clinical medicine. Based on a fourthcentury Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) text, together with her team, she managed to get artemisinin(青蒿素)from sweet wormwood through trial and error and developed an important drug that has significantly reduced death rates among patients suffering from malaria.Tu delivered a speech titled Artemisinin is a Gift from TCM to the World.She has urged more research into the benefits of traditional Chinese medicine and called for joint efforts worldwide to fight against malaria and develop more potential uses for TCM, which she called a“great treasure” with thousands of years' history and empirical knowledge.She said that by combining TCM with modern scientific technologies, “more potential can be discovered in searching for new drugs ”. According to the WHO, more than 240 million people in subSaharan Africa have benefited from artemisinin, and more than 1.5 million lives are estimated to have been saved since 2000 thanks to the drug.Apart from its contribution to the global fight against malaria, TCM played a vital role in the deadly outbreak of SARS across China in 2003. Besides treating viruses, TCM has been most effective in diagnosing diseases, cultivating fitness, treating difficult multisource illnesses, and using nonmedicinal methods such as acupuncture (针刺疗法) and breathing exercises. However, TCM, which is based on a set of beliefs about human biology, is seldom understood or accepted by the West. Tu's success will bring more recognition and respect for TCM, experts say.The Western world should learn to appreciate the value of the treasures of TCM, which will lead to more basic scientific research into ancient TCM texts and ways to explore research findings worldwide. 9.In this passage the author mentions ________ prize(s) that Tu Youyou received. A.one B.two C.three D.four 10.The underlined word “malaria” in Paragraph 2 refers to “a kind of ________”. A.medicine B.animal C.plant D.disease 11.What can we learn from the passage? A.Tu's success may encourage Easterners to learn more about Chinese medicine. B.Nothing remains to be done in researching into TCM theories and texts. C.More research into the value of TCM should be carried out worldwide. D.TCM only contributes to the fight against malaria and SARS in China. 12.What's the passage mainly about? A.TCM is based on thousands of years of practice in China. B.Nobel winner, Tu Youyou, strongly supports TCM research. C.Artemisinin is now widely used to fight against malaria. D.Westerners will appreciate the value of the treasures of TCM. D Driving to the airport in the early morning, I felt excited.Although I was heading abroad for my first time alone, I felt cheerful and enthusiastic.I was spending the summer in Paris. While looking for more interesting things to do besides sleeping and eating, I found programs for learning languages abroad, and jumped at the chance to study French in this city known for its art, fashion, food, and culture.As I arrived at the airport where I would leave my family, I still felt only great happiness.I excitedly made my way through security, leaving my loved ones behind. My connecting flight was in Frankfurt, Germany, 14 hours from Denver.Sitting in a crowded plane watching bad movies couldn't dampen my excitement.When the woman next to me asked me where I was going, I happily answered and was pleased to note a tone of jealousy in her response. But when I arrived in Frankfurt, fear and anxiety began to set in.Being in an enormous, busy building in a country where I couldn't speak the language was frightening, but as I found my way, I gained confidence.When I boarded the second plane and discovered that the flight was less than an hour, I was filled with excitement as I thought of how I would manage in a country with a new language. When I stepped on the ground of Pairs for the first time, I was extremely happy and excited.I gathered my bags and joined the crowd of people waiting for friends and family.I quickly had my first experience trying to communicate in a language that I had only practiced in school.As I left the airport, I looked for familiar monuments I had read about, but the landscape looked very ordinary.Then,with one sharp turn, the Eiffel Tower came into view, and I was finally in Pairs. 13.Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage? A.It was the first time that the writer had travelled abroad. B.In the new term the writer was to study French in Paris. C.The crowded plane made the writer less excited. D.The writer flew to Paris via another country. 14.What can we learn from the passage? A.The writer was travelling with a woman friend of her parents’. B.Arriving in Paris, the writer saw some family friends waiting for her. C.The writer was not alone when travelling to the airport in Denver. D.The writer had great difficulty communicating with people in French. 15.What is the passage mainly about? A.The writer's excitement and happiness on her journey to Paris. B.The writer's exciting experiences of studying French in Paris. C.The writer's expectation for French art, fashion, food and culture. D.The writer's excitement resulting from her first ride on a plane 第二节 (共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)(导学号 53990281) 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。 The spirit of Thanksgiving is all about showing gratitude for your good fortune and giving those who are less fortunate.__16__ Try these great ideas to teach your children graciousness and goodwill.And don't forget—you can use these ideas all year around!

Gates said in an interview with the social networking and news website Reddit:“I am in the camp that is concerned about super intelligence.First the machines will do a lot of jobs for us and not be super intelligent.That should be positive if we manage well.A few decades after that though the intelligence is strong enough to be a concern.” Well,maybe I don't have to worry about my computer and kitchen equipment yet.After I use them I can always pull the plug.But in the future,machines might find a way to prevent us from switching them off.There's a terrible thought! Maybe the problem with computers too clever for us is not that they are evil like some we've seen in scifi movies.What could put us in danger is that they might be too efficient.That's what philosopher Nick Bostrom from Oxford University believes.He says that machines are indifferent (漠不关心的) to humans and in pursuit of their own goals,the destruction of people might be just additional damage.Bostrom gives us an example: A machine which might have as its only goal to produce as many paperclips as possible might look at human bodies as extra material for paperclips and go after you.Because it is,well,a machine, it would not take pity on you. It's a good thing that American writer Isaac Asimov thought about how far robots can go and left us his three rules of robotics.They state that a robot may not hurt a human being or allow the human being to come to harm. I'm glad my machines at home are “dumb”.All my cleaner wants to take over is the carpet in my living room.Let's hope they don't create an appliance which wants to take over the world! 5.The author quoted Bill Gates'words in Paragraph 2 in order to make the text ________. A.betterknown B.more persuasive C.betterorganized D.more interesting 6.An intelligent paperclip machine would harm us because ________. A.it is much cleverer than us B.it would take over the world C.it would see us just as material D.it has the strong feeling of destroying us 7.How does the author feel about Isaac Asimov's rules of robotics? A.Optimistic. B.Sympathy. C.Disappointed. D.Regretful. 8.What does the text mainly focus on? A.The benefits of future robots. B.The new applications of robots. C.The concern for super intelligence. D.The popularity of robots in the future. C There is some unwelcome news for students preparing for exams and officers putting in long hours—you don't need the break as much as you may think that makes you feel less tired. Scientists have long assumed that willpower (意志力) is a limited resource,which is why you feel the need to have a rest,have a snack and come back to a task when you're feeling better.They argued that the only way to restore willpower was by rest,food or entertainment. But psychologists have challenged this theory,saying weak willpower is all in your head.They found that people's beliefs in willpower determine how long and how well they'll be able to work on a tough mental exercise.“If you think of willpower as something that's limited,you're more likely to be tired when you perform a difficult task,” said Prof.Veronika Job.“But if you think of willpower as something that is not easily used up,you can go on and on.” The researchers designed four experiments to test students' beliefs in willpower.After a tiring task,those,who believed or were led to believe that willpower is a limited resource,performed worse on standard concentration tests than those who thought of willpower as something they had more control over.They also found that leading up to final exam week,students who believed the limited resource theory ate junk food 24 percent more often than those who believed they had more control in resisting temptation (诱惑). Mr.Job said.“The theory that willpower is a limited resource is interesting,but it has had unintended consequences.Students who may already have trouble studying are being told that their power of concentration is limited,and they need to take frequent breaks.But a belief in willpower as a nonlimited resource makes people stronger in their ability to work through challenges.” The findings could help people who are battling temptation.Willpower isn't driven by a biologically based process as much as we used to think.The belief in it is what influences your behavior. 9.The theory that willpower is limited supports that ________. A.people must eat snacks when they feel tired B.people do need a break to restore their willpower C.there's no way to strengthen people's willpower D.weak willpower doesn't affect people's life much 10.What have the scientists long believed regarding willpower? A.It is in the charge of people. B.It is a limited resource. C.There is no way to restore willpower. D.It doesn't easily run out. 11.What's the best title for the passage? A.A New Theory about Willpower B.How to Build Strong Willpower C.The Great Influence of Willpower D.Willpower Doesn't Last Long D Businesses are witnessing a difficult time, which has in turn produced influence on consumers' desire to go green.However, shoppers are still laying stress on environmental concerns. Two thirds of customers say that environmental considerations inform their purchases to the same degree as they did a year ago, while more than a quarter say that they are now even better aware of the environmental effect on what they buy. This may help to influence how shops store goods on their shelves.And the companies should still make efforts to become more environmentally friendly.Two out of three people think it is important to buy from environmentally responsible companies, with about one in seven saying that they had even decided to take their custom elsewhere if they felt a company's environmental reputation was not good enough. Harry Morrison, chief executive (主管) of the Carbon Trust, sympathizes:“I understand this situation where survival is very important now.But from environmental considerations, the clock is ticking—we don't have much time.In addition, cutting carbon has an immediate effect as costs drop and a mediumterm benefit for the brand.” Larger companies have an extra motivation to look at reducing their carbon footprint, as new rules next year will require businesses to buy carbon allowances to make up for their emissions (排放).Those that have taken early action will have a head start.More than two thirds of consumers are not clear about which companies are environmentally responsible.This suggests that firms that are able to relay clearly their message to the public will be in a pole position to attract shoppers. The Carbon Trust believes that it can help by informing customers about the good work companies are doing.“When companies are granted (授予) the standard, they can use a logo (标识) in all their marketing which makes it clear that they are working towards cutting emissions,” Mr.Morrison said. 12.What's the main idea of the passage? A.Businesses are finding ways to send their message to the shoppers. B.Companies will soon get information about cutting carbon emissions. C.Firms are making efforts to encourage customers to keep goods at home. D.Firms are urged to cut carbon emissions by shoppers' environmental awareness. 13.The underlined word “inform” in Paragraph 2 probably means “________”. A.affect B.change C.disturb D.reject 14.According to Harry Morrison, businesses ________. A.will benefit from cutting carbon emissions B.should buy carbon allowances for shoppers C.are required to make up for their carbon emissions D.have encouraged shoppers to take their custom elsewhere 15.We can learn from the passage that businesses will ________. A.have a strong desire to reduce costs B.use the same logo in their marketing C.gain advantages by taking early action D.attract more shoppers by storing goods 第二节 (共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)(导学号 53990287) 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 six million American children, coming home after school means coming to an empty house.__16__ Some may hide.But all of them have something in common.They spend part of each day alone.They are called latchkey children.They are children who look after themselves while their parents work.__17__ Lynette Long was once the headmaster of an elementary school.She said, “We had a school rule against wearing jewelry.A lot of kids had chains around their necks with keys attached.I was constantly telling them to put them inside shirts.There were so many keys.It never came to my mind what they meant.”__18__ She and her husband began talking to the children who had them.They learned of the impact working couples and single parents were having on their children.__19__ One in every three latchkey children the Longs talked to reported being scared.Many had nightmares and were worried about their own safety.

细节理解题。根据第二段中的“That's why teachers...technical ability”可知,教师鼓励学生用字典是为了让他们在表达自己的想法时不再受拼写的限制,因此学生能够更加自由地表达他们的思想。故选C。 8.A 主旨大意题。第一段点明对待拼写有两种不同的观点,下文介绍了让学生拼写会限制学生主动使用新的词汇而影响他们表达自己的思想,不让学生拼写会造成在作文中出现很多的拼写错误。故选A。 C 本文是一篇科普文。文章讲述了少坐可以延长我们的生命。 9.D 词义猜测题。根据画线单词后的内容“it is something we do all the time, everywhere”可知我们随时随地都坐着,因此ubiquitous的意思是“常见的”。故选D。 10.B 细节理解题。根据第三段中的“We can't throw away physical activity.It's extremely important.(我们不能扔掉体育活动。它非常重要。)”,可知与选项B(锻炼很重要,不能长时间坐着)意思是一致的。故选B。 11.A

again and again inside that tiny space.”可知,弹簧终日都在压缩和拉长自己,故可知画线词的含义为“把……紧压在一起”。故选D。 14.A 细节理解题。根据第二段的“During the journey,he did not dare to open his eyes out of pure fear.Nor did he stop crying.”可知,在旅途中,弹簧由于恐惧而不敢睁开双眼。故选A。 15.C 细节理解题。根据第二段和第三段可知,弹簧的历险路线是:厕所下水管——河道——河床——河岸——开满花的地面。故选C。 第二节 本文讲述了如何把焦虑、愤怒和悲伤转化为幸福,并列举了四种方法。 16.B 通读第一段以及空格前句“Here are four ideas to get you started.”可知,本段作者讲 述快乐并不是让你永久保持快乐的状态,但是有许多方法,可以将可能出现的焦虑、愤怒、沮丧和悲伤情绪转变为快乐。下面有四个办法可供你使用。接下来详细地讲述了这四种办法。因此推断空格处选B项“选择其中对你起作用的一种办法。”符合语境。故选B。 17.F 本段建议想要快乐,就要开心大笑。空格上文阐述你可以通过想象一件快乐有趣的事来提高内啡肽和其他高兴诱导激素,起到降低产生压力的激素。加州大学Irvine分校的研究员对十六个都认同某一张光碟是有趣的人进行测试。他们中的一半被提前三天告诉将要观看这张光碟,因此依据前文提到的结论推断,空格处选F“他们立刻体会到生 理上的变化。”符合语境。故选F。 18.D 本段建议想要快乐,一次做一件事情。空格前文阐述同时做许多事情的人更可能患高血压。空格下文阐述不要同时做几件事。因此推断空格处选D项“请认真对待这件事。”符合语境。故选D。 19.G 空格处是本段的中心思想。本段主要阐述尽管人际交往缓解压力,但是有时也需要独自充电和反思。因此推断本段建议偶尔独处。故选G。 20.C 本段建议要练习心境。和家人共进晚餐时,注意力集中在眼前的事物上,不要去担心明天的结算手续。因此推断空格处选C项“专注于眼前的事物。” 符合语境。故选C。 Ⅱ英语知识运用 第一节 完形填空 本文讲述了Andrew最终鼓起勇气向上司请求加薪的一次经历。而妻子Tina对Andrew的无条件的爱意和支持表达了“当我们知道不管成功或失败都有人爱我们的时候,我们差不多可以承受任何挫折或拒绝。”这一感悟。

thankfully感激地;fortunately幸运地;apparently显然地。这些学生希望把这项“结束饥饿”的活动推行到全世界以帮助更多的人。这是他们的美好愿望,所以 “hopefully” 符合题意。故选A。 31.C affordable可承受的;aggressive侵略的,有进取心的;ambitious有雄心的; arbitrary随意的。由上文“The ultimate goal for us is to end food waste”可知这项活动的最终目标是很伟大的,这项活动能推行到全世界是“雄心勃勃的”。故选C。 32.B frightened受惊的;affected影响,感动;embarrassed尴尬的; disappointed失望的。此处是解释为什么Michael组织这项活动的原因。几年前他和家人在印度旅游时被沿街乞讨的景象所“感染/感动”。故选B。 33.B met 遇见;stayed呆在;agreed同意;matched匹配。旅游回来后,感染他的那一幕一直“在他脑海萦绕”,或者一直“停留在”他心间。故选B。 34.D when当……时候;as 正如;since 由于;while然而,尽管。此处是while引导的让步状语从句,相当于though,所以不能换成别的连词。故选D。 35.C awarded赋予奖项;comforted安慰;rewarded奖赏;favored同意。虽然他和他的团队因他们所做的而被表彰,但他觉得最让他们受益的是他们跟那些在救济所生活或工作的人的交流。故选C。 36.A understanding 理解;analyzing分析;balancing衡量;expressing表达。学生们通过做这项活产生的感悟。通过这项活动,他们对“相对于别人的特权和责任”有了“新的理解”。故选A。 37.D fail失败;fight 打架;manage尝试;choose选择。他们对“特权和责任” 的新的理解:很多人(有特权的人,或者富有的人)并不是“自己选择”现在的生活(所处的位置),而是“运气”所致。故选D。 38.B freedom自由;luck幸运;courage 勇气;wisdom智慧。他们对“特权和责任”的新的理解:很多人(有特权的人,或者富有的人)并不是“自己选择”现在的生活(所处的位置),而是“运气”所致。故选B。 39.A pretty相当;well 良好的;rather相当;even甚至;最后一段表达了活动发起人Michael的感想和展望。他觉得,一群学生能做这样的事情是“非常/相当”令人惊讶的(惊喜)。所以选择pretty,表示程度。 40.C point观点;breakthrough突破;difference差别,影响;decision决定。make a difference 是“有影响,起重要作用”的意思。这里是指学生们的这项活动的影响。故选C。 第二节 本文主要讲述了作者在大雾天帮助一位老妇人的故事。 41.was working 根据语境可知此处应用过去进行时,故填was working。 42.but 根据空前后的分句之间的转折关系判断填but。 43.exercising finish doing sth.完成做某事。 44.would walk 根据语境可知“我”告诉老妇人要帮助她这一动作发生在过去的将来,故填would walk。 45.foggy 空后是day,名词,应用形容词修饰,故填foggy。 46.which 空后是定语从句,which代替主句一句话的内容,在从句中做主语。故填which。 47.it 指代前文作者帮助老太太的那件事,故填it。 48.easily 副词修饰动词,根据could have fallen,可知此处应填easily。 49.needed 根据前文的knew判断填needed。 50.to make be enough to do意为“足以……”。 Ⅲ写作 第一节 短文改错 第一处:have→has。主语是everyone,谓语动词应该用单数形式,所以要将have改为has。 第二处:去掉into。当enter后面跟的是某一组织和某一机构的时候不加介词into,所以此处应该去掉into。 第三处:go→going。此处这个句子与后面分句没什么联系,在这里构成非谓语动词做句子的伴随状语, 且这里的语态是主动语态,故将go改成going。 第四处:kind→kinds。这里的种类是多种,所以应该用复数形式,在其后面加s。 第五处:successful前面加a。此句中缺少冠词,而后面的doctor是单数形式,所以此处冠词应该用a。 第六处:was→is。整篇文章的时态都是一般现在时,所以应该将was改成is。 第七处:health→healthy。句中的“健康”表达的是一种状态,应该用形容词,而不是名词,故应将health改为healthy。 第八处:me→myself。根据句意可知此处表达的意思是“我”会一遍一遍地告诉“我”自己更用功学习,所以代表我自己的意思时应该用反身代词myself。 第九处:to→on。concentrate on是固定搭配,意为“专心于……”,故应将to改为on。 第十处:hardly→hard。work hard是固定搭配,意为“努力”,所以此处应该用hard。 第二节 书面表达 参考范文: Dear_Sir_or_Madam, _I_am_Li_Hua,_a_Chinese_student,_studying_in_New_Zealand.I'm_writing_to ask for information about your agency's New Zealand's travel for the winter vacation.

Sincerely_Yours, Li_Hua 综合能力检测(五) Ⅰ阅读理解 第一节 A 本文主要介绍了大学生开学面临的经济问题之一——信用卡的选用,并就此给出了自己的建议。 1.D 词义推测题。由后文的“Advertisements for student credit cards are everywhere: in bags at the bookstore, in the campus newspaper, in your regular mailbox, in the residence halls.”可知,大一新生一入校就会被兜售信用卡的人所包围进行轮番轰炸。故选D。 2.A 推理判断题。由文章最后一段“If you do want a credit card, just be smart about it.”和下文描述可知,大一新生选用信用卡要慎重。故选A。 3.D 主旨大意题。本文主要就大学新生使用信用卡需要注意的事项进行了简单介绍,并给出了具体的建议。A项范围太大;B项错在Don'ts, 文章只列举了使用信用卡应注意的事项,而没有列举不能用信用卡来做什么;C项不全面,仅仅是文章涉及到的一个方面。故选D。 4.C 推理判断题。本文主要讲的是关于大学新生使用信用卡的一些注意事项和一些具体的建议,是关于经济方面的知识,自然出现在经济这一栏目。故选C。 B 本文主要讲述了第一印象的重要性以及如何给人留下良好的第一印象。 5.C 细节理解题。由第三段可知,给人一个好印象的关键是适当地展示自己。故选C。 6.B 词义猜测题。由上下文来看,主要谈论的就是适当地表现自己,也就是你的形象是形成好的印象的关键。由此可知“the picture”指的就是你的形象。故选B。 7.B 推理判断题。由第六段可知,在不同的国家和文化下,适当的服装也会发生变化的。故选B。 C 本文主要是对麻省理工学院的概述,简单介绍了其发展及校园概貌。 8.B 细节理解题。由第一段中的“MIT was elected to the Association of American Universities in 1934”可知答案。故选B。 9.B 推理判断题。由第二段中的“an acceptance rate of 7.73%”可知答案,列式为30000×7.73%=2319。故选B。 10.D 细节理解题。由最后一段第一句“MIT's 168acre campus spans approximately a mile of the north side of the Charles River basin in the city of Cambridge”可知这条河不在麻省理工学院内。故选D。 11.C 写作意图题。全文都在客观介绍麻省理工学院,故作者写此文的目的就是介绍该学校。故选C。 D 本文是一篇议论文,介绍了在我们想要放弃的时候改变这种模式的一种方法就是重新选择目标并且迅速作出决定。 12.C 推理判断题。文章第一段第三句“Whatever our circumstances,we generally still have dreams,hopes and desires”说不管在什么情况下,我们仍然有着梦想、希望和欲望。以及第二段最后一句“If you drop that,you begin to feel a little ‘dead’ inside because you're dropping ‘you’.”如果你放弃了,你的内心会变得了无生机,因为你放下了你自己。故选C。 13.B 细节理解题。文章最后一段中的“Decide and act before overthinking.”告诉我们打破旧方式的关键是作出决定并立刻采取行动。故选B。 14.C 推理判断题。根据画线句子可知其本意是“逃出你内心的牢笼”。结合上文中在过多思考之前快速决定和行动可以推测这个画线句子是指“要从过多考虑的焦虑中解放自己”。故选C。 15.A 写作意图题。从全文来看,作者主要是想要强调果断的行动而不是空想来实现自己的梦想和欲望,比起想要成功,行动更加容易。故选A。 第二节 本文是一篇说明文。介绍了容器园艺。 16.C 本文提供了一种在缺乏场地、空间不足时种植园艺的解决方案,也就是容器园艺。故选C。 17.A 本段提到了各种各样用来进行种植的容器,最后一句说明容器的选择只受想象力的制约。故选A。 18.F 由前一句可知,装过化学品的容器,或是经过防腐处理的木质容器,是不利于种植的。故选F。 19.B 由前一句可知,容器的大小应该合适,由常识可知,大的容器浪费空间、小的容器会盛不下植物。故选B。 20.D 本段主要讲种植蔬菜和花卉的过程是不同的,同时提供了建议,由后一句可判断设空处的句子是建议的内容。故选D。 Ⅱ英语知识运用 第一节 完形填空 文章讲述了作者和妻子来到异国他乡时,遇到了一个“大哥哥”的帮助,他给了他们亲人般的关怀和照顾,陪着他们购物、去银行、帮助他们办理各项事务,使他们很容易地适应了的新环境,因此他们也成了亲密的朋友。 21.B curious好奇的;worried担心的;certain肯定的;crazy疯狂的。由情理可知当人们初到异国他乡,在举目无亲的情况下,面对陌生的环境心里是担忧的,不安的。故选B。 22.C check检查;drop下降;land着陆;settle定居。根据at the airport可知他们是乘飞机去的,所以用land“着陆,降落”。故选C。 23.A therefore 因此;instead取代;anyhow无论如何;otherwise否则。从下文可知因为有了这个和善的 “大哥哥”的帮助,他们在这个新地方的生活变得很容易,所以此处表示因果关系,故选A。 24.D

everything.”判断他指给我们去哪里买东西,此处指买东西的地方,故选B。 26.C once 一次;一旦;so因此;twice 两次;finally最终。根据下文During the first gettogether, During the second gettogether可知是两次。故选C。 27.D

sick生病的;lonely;孤独的;cheerful欢呼;scare害怕。根据下文he hardly sees his family...they are in his home country.判断他是独自一人居住在国外,所以用lonely“孤独的”,故选B。 30.C if如果;unless除非;as由于;although尽管。从“he hardly sees his family,”和“they are in his home country”判断前后句是因果关系,故选C。 31.D secretly秘密地;jokingly开玩笑地;proudly自豪地;sincerely真诚地。由情理可知当他说“He said that he loves us...”的时候应该是发自内心、真诚地说,故选D。 32.B remember记得;miss错过;想念forget忘记;respect尊重。根据后句“because he has been given a...of 45 days to go back to his home country”可知他要回国,由情理可知在此他表示在此期间他会想念作者和她的丈夫。故选B。 33.C delay 推迟;right 权力;vacation假期;date日期。根据下文“from his vacation”可以判断他获得了一个45天的假期,故选C。 34.A create创造;造成;design设计;solve解决;receive受到。那天晚上,他的话对我们的生活产生重大影响。故选A。 35.B puzzle迷惑;touch感动;astonish震惊;flatter奉承;谄媚。由上文“He said that

回报;in advance预先。上文作者发短信表示对这位好人的感激,所以此处再提到其他内容时可以用as well,意思是“也”,故选B。 38.D agree同意;object反对;add加;reply回复。根据下文“You are my family here.”可知这是“大哥哥”所回短信的内容,reply to “对……做出回复、回答”,故选D。 39.A see看;pick捡;call叫;force。从下文“We'll watch the football match again”可知作者是去见刚刚探亲回来的这位朋友,故选A。 40.C book书;grocery杂货;coffee咖啡;sports运动。根据上文“the match in a coffee shop.”可以推断他们会再次去那家有着美好回忆的咖啡店去看球赛,故选C。 第二节 本文是社会生活类文章。作者叙述了英国人在海边度假的起源和流传至今的原因。 41.invention 根据下文谓语动词made,此处应用名词做主语,故填invention。 42.were 根据空前的名词holiday makers可知用be的复数形式,根据前文的“the 19th century”应用过去时,故应填were。 43.However 根据上下文的关系判断填“尽管如此”,故填However。 44.to have 根据词组“allow sb.to do sth.”允许某人做某事,判断填to have。 45.which 空后是定语从句,从句中缺少主语,非限制性定语从句,应用which引导。故填which。 46.rising 根据income是rise的执行者,应用现在分词形式做定语,故填rising。 47.were built 根据hotel是build的动作承受者,语境是发生在过去的事情,可知填were built。 48.sitting 根据enjoy后跟v.ing形式做宾语判断填sitting。 49.went and连接两个并列句,前后时态应保持一致,根据前面的was可知此处应用一般过去时。故填went。 50.the seaside是中心词,English修饰seaside,应特指,故判断填the。 Ⅲ写作 第一节 短文改错 第一处:which→who。该句的先行词是my parents,我的父母,是人,所以应该用who引导定语从句。故将which改为who。 第二处: time→times。a few修饰可数名词复数,所以这里的times应该是指次数,故将time改为times。 第三处: wonderfully→wonderful。形容词修饰名词放在名词前面,而副词修饰形容词,通常放在后面。feeling是一个名词,所以前面的wonderfully应该改为形容词wonderful。 第四处: seeing→see。根据前面的“wait to”我们可以知道这是一个动词不定式,故将seeing改为see。 第五处: 去掉the。表示季节、月份、星期以及节假日的时候不用冠词,该句the后面有Friday,所以要将the去掉。 第六处: we→they。这里是指“我”父母他们,故将we改为they。 第七处:tired→tiring。tired是厌倦的,困倦的。tiring是累人的,令人疲倦的。人做主语,后加tired,;物做主语,后加tiring。这里用来修饰journey旅程,所以要用形容物tiring。 第八处: up后面加上at。介词at用于表示几点钟,故将up后加上at。 第九处:make→made。该处前面有并列连词and并且前面动词went是过去式,所以要将and后面的词变为过去式,将make改为made。 第十处: but→and。句意:这时,我们坐在一起,分享我们那周的经历。可以判断出这是表示并列关系,故将but改为and。 第二节 书面表达 参考范文: Dear_editor, I_am_writing_to_you_to_talk_about_the_heavy_traffic.Nowadays, people in many big cities are complaining about the heavy traffic.It has seriously influenced people's daily life and economic development.To solve the problem, I'd like to put forward some pieces of advice. For one thing, more streets and roads should be built.In this way, we can speed up the flow of buses and cars.For another, the number of bikes and cars can be limited, which can decrease the traffic flow.But the most important thing is that the number of private cars should be put under control.Meanwhile, buses should have their own special routes which cannot be used by other vehicles.Besides, underground train and city train should be developed quickly. I do hope my suggestions will be taken.

credit for what isn't really yours but mine”可知,父亲对作者说“I'm so proud of you”时,作者认为父亲把不是自己的成就当成了自己的。故选B。 7.D 推理判断题。根据第三段中作者表扬孩子的用语和“But never just the blanket phrase”可知,作者不像父亲那样仅仅用很苍白的“I'm so proud of you”来表扬孩子,他把自己对孩子的表扬具体化了。故选D。 8.A 推理判断题。根据最后一段中的“In the phrase that I promised I would never utter to my children was a world of forgiveness,care and appreciation”可知,作者最后领悟到了那5个单词所代表的深刻含义,它们饱含父亲对孩子的宽恕、关爱和欣赏,它们代表着父爱,作者认可了父亲这种表达爱的方式,因此才会给自己的儿子写下“I'm so proud of you”。故选A。 C 9.B 细节理解题。从第一段的“received the Nobel Prize for medicine”和“receive the USbased

in...When I boarded the second plane”可以看出作者去巴黎的途中要转换飞机的。故选D。 14.C 推理判断题。由文中第二段“As I arrived at the airport where I would leave my family, I still felt only great happiness.I excitedly made my way through security, leaving my loved ones behind.”可知有家人送作者去机场。又由于“My connecting flight was in Frankfurt, Germany, 14 hours from Denver.”可知Denver是作者出发的地方。故选C。 15.A 主旨大意题。纵观全文,作者主要描述的是去往巴黎途中的兴奋和开心,文中多次出现excitement 和happiness的描述。故选A。 第二节 感恩节来临之际,本文呼吁家长朋友们引导孩子参加多项活动,例如看望医院里的病人、给避难所的人们送礼物等,让孩子们拥有一颗善良、感恩的心。 16.D 根据第16空前的“The spirit of Thanksgiving is all about showing gratitude for your good fortune...”以及第16空后的“Try these great ideas to teach your children graciousness and goodwill.”可知,该空是一个过渡句,承上启下,既要表达感谢,也提出了要参加活动。故选D。 17.E 根据第17空后的句子“Ask your kids to pick out a gift they think a kid like them would love.”中的“a kid like them”可知,前面提到孩子,而这段主题是拜访医院,因此此处应指的是拜访儿童医院。故选E。 18.B 根据第18空前的句子“...but don't forget the animals!”可知,此处指要给予动物们关爱,再根据空后的“Take your son or daughter to an animal shelter to volunteer...”可知,B项“成百上千只无家可归的动物也需要你的时间、爱和拥抱。”符合语境,起到承上启下的作用。故选B。 19.G 根据第四段可知,本段的主题为给收容所的人们送去关爱和礼物;第19空为本段小标题,应该是主旨句,并且是祈使句。故选G。 20.C 根据本段标题中的join及第20空后的“...inviting him to your family's holiday dinner this year.”可知,该句与“聚在一起”有关。故选C项,其中的togetherness与上下文衔接。 Ⅱ英语知识运用 第一节 完形填空 由于火灾,老师禁止我们进入艺术教室。然而出于好奇心我要去一探究竟,却被老师逮住了。本以为老师会严厉的责备我并告诉家长,但是他更关心我的安全。 21.C

machine which might have as its only goal to produce as many paperclips as possible might look at human bodies as extra material for paperclips and go after you”,可知机器人可能把人体看成是额外的原材料,与C选项表述一致。故选C。 7.A 细节理解题。文中说“It's a good thing”这是件好事,所以作者的态度是乐观的。故选A。 8.C 主旨大意题。本文主要是表达对机器人也就是超级智能的一种担心。故选C。 C 本文是一篇说明文,属于日常生活类短文阅读。人们长久以来认为意志力是有限的,所以人们累了就需要休息。但是一项新的研究表明,人的意志力是无限的,这会导致人们更加专注,对于那些和诱惑作斗争的人,这个发现是很有用的。 9.B 细节理解题。根据第二段中的“They argued that the only way to restore willpower was by rest,food or entertainment.”可知,人们的意志力是有限的,支持了人们需要休息修复他们的意志力这种说法。故选B。 10.B 细节理解题。第二段中的“Scientists have long assumed that willpower...have a snack and come back to a task when you're feeling better.”可知,科学家长期以来认为意志力是一个有限的资源。故选B。 11.A 主旨大意题。根据第一段中的“There is some unwelcome news for students preparing for exams and officers

buy”可知,现在三分之二的顾客在购物时对环境的考虑比一年前程度加深了。故选A。 14.A 推理判断题。根据第四段最后一句“cutting carbon has an immediate effect as costs drop and a mediumterm benefit for the brand”可以推断出:商业会受益于减排。故选A。 15.C 推理判断题。根据第五段最后一句“This

前句介绍的是在美国超过六百万的儿童从学校回到家中意味着独自面对虚无一人的空房子,后文说一些儿童会把这种情况隐藏起来,可推断另外一些孩子不会介意。故选B。 17.F 前文讲述这些自带钥匙的孩子有一些共性——在父母工作的时候必须照顾自己,下文是班主任Lynette Long所在的这所学校禁止任何学生佩戴挂饰,因此自带钥匙的孩子违反了校规,所以推理出佩戴钥匙成为这些孩子的一种担忧。故选F。 18.A 前文“It never came to my mind what they meant.”,下文讲述Lynette Long针对这些孩子进行了调查,故推理出Lynette Long慢慢地了解这些钥匙的背后的含义。故选A。 19.C 前文讲述Lynette Long夫妇了解到父母双方均在外工作以及单亲父母的孩子给孩子造成的影响,下文“One in every three latchkey children the Longs talked to reported being scared.”可见,恐惧是其中一个主要问题。故选C。 20.G 前句讲述这些孩子处理恐怖最常见的办法是躲藏,下文讲述了两种躲藏的办法,故此处是其中一种方法:可能是在沐浴室,被子里或者壁橱里。故选G。 Ⅱ英语知识运用 第一节 完形填空 父子两人一起散步,经常捡到一些特殊年份的硬币。父亲去世后,作者很伤心,碰巧走到父亲生前工作过的地方,又捡到特殊硬币,作者发现父子亲情无论何时都无法割舍。 21.B 根据设空后的“a penny here,a dime there”可知,父子俩散步时经常会发现硬币,而不是cash(现金),cent(美分),currency(货币)。故选B。 22.A 句意:无论何时我捡到一美分硬币,他往往会问我:“是麦穗图案吗?”本句中would表示“往往会”,因此Whenever符合语境。 23.C 句意:当我们发现产自1909年到1958年(我出生的年份)间的一枚特殊硬币时,他总是很激动。从“the year of my birth”及下文可知,这些硬币代表与作者或父亲相关的具有特殊意义的年份,很有纪念意义,所以应该是很特殊的(special)。故选C。 24.D 根据第24空后作者的回答“I always have that dream too!”可知,父亲经常梦到(dreamed)发现硬币。故选D。 25.A 根据第28空后一句中的funeral可知此处指父亲去世。故选A。 26.A 因为父亲去世,作者独自走在大街上,感到伤心(sad)和孤独。bored意为“厌烦的”;lost意为“迷路的;迷茫的”;desperate意为“绝望的;拼命的”。故选A。 27.C 作者突然发现自己已在教堂前面,但很长时间都没来过教堂。attended意为“去(学校、教堂等)”。reach意为“到达”;visit意为“参观;访问”;enter意为“进入”。故选C。 28.D 父亲曾在教堂工作过,结合空后的“one we'd sung at his funeral”可知,这首赞美诗是父亲最喜欢的。故选D。memory意为“回忆”;happiness意为“快乐,幸福”;impression意为“印象”。 29.B 作者走进教堂,听到父亲最爱的赞美诗,因为“我们”在他的葬礼上也唱过,所以再次听到时,勾起作者对父亲的思念,作者的眼泪(tears)就流了下来。 30.B 在礼拜结束后,作者走在人行道上,发现一枚一分钱的硬币,所以是弯腰(bent)捡起来(bent为bend的过去式),而不是run(跑),fall(跌倒)或return(返回)。故选B。 31.A 根据第一段中的“Is it a wheat?”可知,作者和父亲一直想捡到麦穗图案的硬币,结合空后的“it was a wheat!”可知,此处指作者十分肯定这就是一枚麦穗图案的硬币。sure enough为固定短语,意为“果真,果然(如此)”,表示发生的事与预料的相符。故选A。 32.B 根据下文的“I got most of the __33__ years...”及“But I found 21 wheat pennies...”可知,自从捡了麦穗图案的硬币后,麦穗图案的硬币就突然经常出现在纽约的人行道上。turn down意为“关小;拒绝”;turn up意为“调高;出现”;turn away意为“转身”;turn out意为“结果是,原来是”。故选B。 33.C 根据第33空后的“his birth year,the year he graduated from college,the year he __34__ my mom,the year they got married”可知,那些年份都是跟父亲有关的重要的(important)有纪念意义的年份,因此C项最合适。serious意为“严重的;严肃的”;pleasant意为“愉悦的”;familiar意为“熟悉的”。 34.A 第34空后说的是父母结婚的年份,因此此处应该是指父母相遇(met)才符合逻辑。故选A。 35.C 根据下文“I just had to get it.”可知,本空不可能是已经拿到手了,因此caught(抓住),picked(捡起),took(携带;拿走),均不符合语境。此处应指“发现”了一枚硬币。spot意为“发现”。故选C。 36.D 根据空后的“taxis were speeding by”可知,出租车在街道上快速驶过,因此可以判断道路上车很多,交通繁忙。故选D。 37.B 根据前文可知,街道繁忙,出租车快速驶过,因此作者在犹豫是不是要冒险穿过车流去捡硬币,因此B项符合语境。observe意为“观察到,看到”,find意为“发现”,make it意为“获得成功;准时到达”,均不符合语境。故选B。 38.C 根据下一句“I couldn't read the date”及作者用magnifying glass(放大镜)才看得清楚可知,这枚硬币比较破旧(worn)了。故选C。 39.D 作为一名记者,怀疑是职业中必需的和诚实的美德(virtue)。devotion意为“奉献”,advantage意为“优势”,conduct意为“行为,表现”,均不符合语境。故选D。 40.D 作者在父亲去世后发现了21枚有麦穗图案的硬币,基于作者的身份可知他认为这不是巧合(coincidence)。故选D。 第二节 本文主要讲述了Alice打破盘子之后,把碎片包裹后处理以免他人受伤的故事。 41.dishes wash dishes洗碗。 42.carelessly 句意:他不小心打碎了一个漂亮的碟子。用副词修饰动词;再由句意可知,填carelessly。 43.if/whether 父亲出来查看女儿是否受了伤。if/whether是否。 44.To to one's relief令某人如释重负的是。 45.left left是形容词,一般用为后置定语,意为“剩下的,剩余的”。 46.a 此处表示一个塑料袋,表泛指,故填a。 47.wrapped/had wrapped 由全文可知,此处应用过去时态。 48.them 此处用作put的宾语,所以用宾格形式。 49.saying 纸片上写着“危险,破碎的碟子”。card与say之间构成逻辑上的主谓关系,所以填v.ing形式。 50.considerate how后接形容词。故填considerate。 Ⅲ写作 第一节 短文改错 第一处: much→more。 a lot more“更多”是常用的表达,不能用much。 第二处: when→that。 本句是强调句型,基本结构是It is/was...that...,故不能把that换成when。 第三处: found→founded。 动词found是“建立”的意思,它的过去分词形式是founded。而过去分词found的原形是动词find“发现,找到”。 第四处: got→get。 根据“every Saturday afternoon”可知,这里说的是现在的一般情况,故要用一般现在时。 第五处: holding→held。 分析句子结构可知,activities后面是非谓语动词短语做定语,activities与hold之间是逻辑上的被动关系,故这里应该用过去分词。 第六处: diversely→diverse。 此处修饰English films,故要用形容词。diverse意为“各种各样的,不同的”。 第七处: 去掉well后的as。as well as是连词,连接并列的成分,as well充当副词,意为“也”,相当于too。根据语境,此处显然不应该用as well as,而应该用as well。 第八处: word→words。 word在此处作“单词”讲,是可数名词,其前没有冠词、物主代词等限定词,故要用复数形式。 第九处: a→the。 上下文都在说英语俱乐部的情况,那么,在英语俱乐部里讨论话题,当然要用英语这种语言了,故这里的language是特指,而不是泛指。 第十处: 在early前加your。 根据语境,这里应是“你的尽早回复”,故要加上形容词性物主代词your以使语义更加明确。 第二节 书面表达 参考范文: My View on Growing Pains Today I would like to share my view on growing pains. Growing pains are the two sides of one coin. To grow, one is sure to suffer with pains. The point is, how should we deal with those pains? We should face the pains directly. It's unwise to either shy away from the pain. Instead, a balanced attitude is a better solution. For example, my biggest struggle lies in the conflict between the impulse to play computer games and the obligation to study. The key is that I didn't lose myself. Had I not kept the conflict in control, I wouldn't be so peaceful now. Above is my personal understanding of growing pains, I hope it will be of some help to you.查看更多
