Belscher noticed it on the floor as he sat at the back of his English class. When the school day ended, Belscher wandered back to the classroom. The old bill was still there. He could easily have pocketed it without thinking twice. Instead, he picked it up and brought it to his English teacher, Mattison.‎ ‎“It wasn’t my money,” Belscher says. Mattison was a little surprised he’d turned the dollar in, knowing a lot of people would have just kept it. She suggested that Belscher tape(贴) it to the whiteboard at the front of the classroom, where she always puts lost things.‎ Rose, another student, was in English class after break when he spotted the dollar on the whiteboard. After class, he asked Mattison why it was there. She was still waiting for the original owner to claim it, so she replied, “I don’t know.” Rose took the tape from Mattison’s desk and taped a second dollar to the board.‎ That got it rolling. The sight of the two dollar bills, side by side, started something in Mattison’s students. They started asking about the purpose of the money, to which Mattison always gave the same answer: She didn’t know. At that point, it was true.‎ More students, curious, taped up single dollar bills. Mattison started to leave the tape on the tray of the whiteboard. The effort snowballed. Even with no clear purpose, many students wanted to be part of whatever this was. The amount continued to grow over several weeks, until it reached $175.76.‎ That left Mattison to make the best decision. She kept thinking about her brother-in-law, Jack Hains. Eight years earlier, Jack had died of amyotrophic lateral ‎ sclerosis (ALS), a rare and devastating neurological disease(神经疾病).‎ Mattison explained to her classes that Jack had raised money every spring for the ALS Therapy Development Institute, established to seek a cure for the disease. She asked the teens whether they minded if she donated the dollars in their names in honor of Jack.‎ Their answer was to tape enough money to the whiteboard over the next few days to push the amount to $321.06. Mattison, choking back tears as she recalls the moment, says she carefully picked the cash off the board and made the donation just before the beginning of May, which is National ALS Awareness Month. That was Saturday. By Monday afternoon, eight more dollars had been taped to the board.‎ ‎1. When Belscher first found a dollar bill, ______________.‎ A. he returned it to its owner B. he donated it to the school C. he handed it in to the teacher D. he picked it up and pocketed it ‎2. What happened after Rose taped a second dollar on the whiteboard?‎ A. The money was stolen by someone.‎ B. More and more students did the same.‎ C. The whiteboard was no longer used for class.‎ D. The teacher asked the students to find the owner.‎ ‎3. The teacher decided to donate the money to ALS institute because ______________.‎ A. Jack had asked her to do so.‎ B. she had been cured of the disease before.‎ C. the students had no idea of the deadly disease.‎ D. she wanted to help those who suffered from ALS.‎ ‎4. What can we infer from the last paragraph?‎ A. The students supported the teacher’s donation.‎ B. Only eight dollars were left on the whiteboard.‎ C. The teacher returned all the money to the students.‎ D. There would be no more money to be taped to the board.‎ ‎【答案】1. C 2. B 3. D 4. A ‎【解析】‎ 这是一篇记叙文。主要记叙了一个学生的一次将捡到的钱贴在教室白板上的无心的行为，而引发了一次为肌萎缩性脊髓侧索硬化症治疗发展研究所筹集资金，最终将金额累计到了321.06美元的事情。‎ ‎【1题详解】‎ 细节理解题。根据第一段最后一句Instead, he picked it up and brought it to his English teacher, Mattison.（相反，他把它捡起来，拿给他的英语老师马蒂森。）可知当Belscher第一次发现一张美元钞票时，他把它交给了老师。故选C。‎ ‎【2题详解】‎ 细节理解题。根据第五段第一句More students, curious, taped up single dollar bills.（更多的学生出于好奇，用胶带把一元钞票粘到白板上。）可知Rose在白板上粘了第二块钱之后，越来越多的学生做了同样的事。故选B。‎ ‎【3题详解】‎ 细节理解题。根据倒数第二段Mattison explained to her classes that Jack had raised money every spring for the ALS Therapy Development Institute, established to seek a cure for the disease. She asked the teens whether they minded if she donated the dollars in their names in honor of Jack.（玛蒂森向全班同学解释说，杰克每年春天都会为肌萎缩性脊髓侧索硬化症治疗发展研究所筹集资金。她问这些孩子们是否介意她以他们的名义捐出这些钱来纪念杰克。）可知这位老师决定把钱捐给ALS协会，因为她想帮助那些患有ALS的人。故选D。‎ ‎【4题详解】‎ 推理判断题。根据最后一段第一句Their answer was to tape enough money to the whiteboard over the next few days to push the amount to $321.06.（他们的答案是在接下来的几天里把足够多的钱贴在白板上，把金额提高到321.06美元。）可知学生们支持了老师捐赠的想法，而且将金额累计到了321.06美元。故选A。‎ B You probably know the basics of how comparatives(比较级) and superlatives(最高级) work in the English language. When comparing something, you often add an “-er” to the end of the comparative adjective. The general rule is that one-syllable(音节)‎ ‎ words get the suffix(后缀), and polysyllabic words get “more” or “most.” That is, unless the two-syllable word ends in a “y”; if that’s the case, you will add the suffixes and change the “y” to an “i”.‎ But what about the word “fun”? This simple adjective only has one syllable, so you’d think you’d add suffixes on it to create superlatives. But if you were to say “I think Magic Kingdom is a funner park than Epcot.” or “Disney World was the funnest vacation ever!” you might get some strange looks. It doesn’t sound quite right. But…why? “Fun” is one syllable, so why do we choose “more fun” as the comparative—especially considering that the similar word “funny,” which has more syllables than “fun,” uses the suffixes with no problem?‎ Well, the problem comes from the fact that the word “fun” was not originally an adjective. Until the early 19th century, it was mostly just a noun, and it gained its meaning as “amusement” in the 18th century. But as early as the 1800s, people began using it as an adjective, the way we’d describe “a fun time” or “a fun place” today.‎ Basically, language is still developing. Grammarians have mostly come around to the use of “fun” as an adjective (though some dictionaries still call it informal). There was (and remains) an agreement of “Fine, you can use ‘fun’ as an adjective…but, like, it’s not really one, so it can’t follow the rules of real adjectives.” So they also agree that the answer to “is funner a word?” is yes. If you want to consider “fun,” as an adjective, then “funner” is indeed a word, as is “funnest”. But this doesn’t mean that “more fun” and “most fun” are incorrect, though; in fact, in formal writing, you’ll probably still want to use those instead of “funner” and “funnest.”‎ The English language is chock-full of uncertain grammar rules; there’s no need to insist that a word breaks the common rules of language just because we didn’t used to use it in a way we do now.‎ ‎5. How do comparatives and superlatives work in the English language?‎ A. Put “more” or “most” before one-syllable adjectives.‎ B. Add “-er” or “-est” to most polysyllabic adjectives.‎ C. Put “more” or “most” before polysyllabic adjectives.‎ D. Add “-er” or “-est” straight to two-syllable words ending in a “y”.‎ ‎6. People didn’t used to use “funner” or “funnest” partly because ______________.‎ A. it sounded strange to grammarians B the English language changed a little C. the word was originally used as a noun D. some dictionaries considered it incorrect ‎7. What can be the best title of the passage?‎ A. Is “funner” a word?‎ B. A general rule of English grammar.‎ C. The development of English language.‎ D. The comparatives and superlatives of adjectives.‎ ‎【答案】5. C 6. C 7. A ‎【解析】‎ 这是一篇说明文。文章主要说明了英语形容词比较级和最高级中，单词fun的比较级和最高级变化规则而展开。告诉了我们单词fun词性的历史演变，英语充满了不确定的语法规则;没有必要仅仅因为我们过去不像现在这样使用一个词就认为它违反了语言的一般规则。‎ ‎【5题详解】‎ 细节理解题。根据第一段中The general rule is that one-syllable words get the suffix, and polysyllabic words get “more” or “most.”（一般规则是单音节单词词尾添加后缀，多音节单词则需要添加“more”或“most”。）可知在英语比较级和最高级中，在多音节形容词前加“more”或“most”。故选C。‎ ‎【6题详解】‎ 细节理解题。根据第三段中Until the early 19th century, it was mostly just a noun, and it gained its meaning as “amusement” in the 18th century. But as early as the 1800s, people began using it as an adjective, the way we’d describe “a fun time” or “a fun place” today.（直到19世纪早期，它还只是一个名词，到了18世纪才有了“娱乐”的含义。但早在19世纪，人们就开始把它用作形容词，我们今天用它来形容“有趣的时间”或“有趣的地方”。）可知过去的人们不习惯使用“funner”或“funnest ‎”，部分原因是这个词最初用作名词。故选C。‎ ‎【7题详解】‎ 主旨大意题。根据文章第二段第一句But what about the word “fun”? This simple adjective only has one syllable, so you’d think you’d add suffixes on it to create superlatives.（但是“乐趣”这个词呢?这个简单的形容词只有一个音节，所以你会认为你应该在它上面加上后缀来创造最高级。）以及倒数第二段中So they also agree that the answer to “is funner a word?” is yes.（所以他们对“funner是一个词吗?”的说法是肯定的。）文章主要内容都是围绕着fun的比较级和最高级变化规则展开论述，故A选项“funner是一个词吗？”符合文章主旨。故选A。‎ C The love story between John F. Kennedy and his wife, Jackie, was far from perfect and was tragically cut short in 1963 by a sniper’s(狙击手) bullet.‎ On November 22, 1963, President John F. Kennedy was seated beside his smartly dressed wife, who was wearing a pink Chanel-like suit and matching pillbox hat and holding an armful of red roses that had been presented to her by fans. They were seated in the back seat of a dark blue 1961 Lincoln with John Connally, the Governor of Texas and his wife, Nellie.‎ And then came the dark moment. As the motorcade(车队) passed the Texas School Book Depository on Elm Street, a loud noise—like the sound of a firecracker—cracked the air. President Kennedy slumped(耷拉) forward, Jackie putting her arms around him.‎ The look on her husband’s face after he was shot would haunt Jackie for the rest of her life. The last words she ever got to say to him were, “I love you, Jack. I love you,” according to Anderson, although Jackie herself recalled it slightly differently in a 1963 interview. All the way to Parkland Hospital, where President Kennedy would eventually be pronounced dead, as she recalled it, she was bent over him, asking “Jack, Jack, can you hear me? I love you.”‎ Jack Kennedy’s final words to his wife of 10 years were far more mundane, of course. He had no way of knowing what was about to happen. It’s been reported that Jack’s final words were, “My God, I’ve been hit,” but physicians have said this ‎ was impossible given Jack’s injuries. Well, historians have now clarified that the last words Jack spoke before the fatal shot were, “No, you certainly can’t.”‎ No, you certainly can’t?‎ He was making small talk in the car. “You certainly can’t say that the people of Dallas haven’t given you a nice welcome,” the Texas Governor’s wife had just remarked to Jack, referring to the huge, adoring crowd. “No, you certainly can’t,” Jack replied, milliseconds before the bullet from Lee Harvey Oswald gun struck.‎ John F. Kennedy never spoke another word after that fateful day, but many things he said during his lifetime are incredibly inspiring.‎ ‎8. When the gunshot incident happened, ______________.‎ A. it suddenly went into darkness B. Kennedy was giving a speech to his fans C. the motorcade was on the way to Parkland Hospital D. Kennedy and his wife were seated next to each other ‎9. The underlined word “mundane” in paragraph 5 probably means ______________.‎ A. unforgettable B. ordinary C. excellent D. humorous ‎10. What does the passage mainly talk about?‎ A. The people’s love for Kennedy.‎ B. The love story of Kennedy and his wife.‎ C. The final words before Kennedy was murdered.‎ D. The inspiring speeches during Kennedy’s lifetime.‎ ‎【答案】8. D 9. B 10. C ‎【解析】‎ ‎【分析】‎ 这是一篇说明文。文章主要描述了John F. Kennedy总统在1963年11月22日被枪杀当天的情况，以及历史学家们现在已经澄清，杰克在那致命的一枪之前说的最后一句话是:“不，你当然不能。”。文章主要围绕着肯尼迪总统的最后一句话展开说明。‎ ‎【8题详解】‎ 细节理解题。根据第二段中On November 22, 1963, President John F. Kennedy was seated ‎ beside his smartly dressed wife, who was wearing a pink Chanel-like suit and matching pillbox hat and holding an armful of red roses that had been presented to her by fans.（1963年11月22日， John F. Kennedy总统坐在他衣着光鲜的妻子身边，她穿着一套类似香奈儿的粉色套装，戴着配套的小礼帽，手里抱着一捧粉丝送给她的红玫瑰。）可知枪击事件发生时，肯尼迪和他的妻子邻座。故选D。‎ ‎【9题详解】‎ 词义猜测题。根据下文Well, historians have now clarified that the last words Jack spoke before the fatal shot were, “No, you certainly can’t.”（历史学家们现在已经澄清，杰克在那致命的一枪之前说的最后一句话是:“不，你当然不能。”）可知Jack Kennedy给结婚10年的妻子的临终遗言是很普通平凡的。故划线单词意思为“普通的”。故选B。‎ ‎【10题详解】‎ 主旨大意题。根据倒数第四段中Well, historians have now clarified that the last words Jack spoke before the fatal shot were, “No, you certainly can’t.”（历史学家们现在已经澄清，杰克在那致命的一枪之前说的最后一句话是:“不，你当然不能。”）以及文章主要内容围绕着说明肯尼迪总统遇害前的最后一句遗言展开。故选C。‎ ‎【点睛】词义猜测题是高考阅读理解中常考题型之一，可以大致分为 ‎① 定义猜词，可以根据定义信息和举例猜测词义。如文中常用refer to，be called或that’s to say，such as等。‎ ‎② 逻辑猜词可以根据同义词、反义词、因果关系词等猜测词义，例如，similarly,the same as,but,however,while,on the other hand,since ,because等，所猜词与这些提示词前/后面部分的含义一样、相反或是前因后果。‎ ‎③ 语法猜词，可以根据构词法，再结合上下文进行猜词。‎ ‎④ 语境猜词，猜测词义离不开上下文的语境，通过上下文提供的情景和线索进行合理的分析，同时还要关注其所在的整段及整篇文章。‎ ‎⑤ 指代猜词即找出人称代词、指示代词、关系代词或关系副词等所指代的内容，做题时要注意指代词的位置，以便于判断，然后用所找的指代内容替换划线代词，核实其逻辑、意义、位置等是否一致，最后比较所找部分与选项，确定意思最接近的选项。‎ 如第二小题，根据下文Well, historians have now clarified that the last words Jack spoke before the fatal shot were, “No, you certainly can’t.”（历史学家们现在已经澄清，杰克在那致命的一枪之前说的最后一句话是:“不，你当然不能。”）可知Jack Kennedy 给结婚10年的妻子的临终遗言是很普通平凡的。故划线单词意思为“普通的”。故选B。‎ 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。‎ Tips for healthy travel with children Children make up a small but important group of travellers. Their smaller bodies and developing immune(免疫) systems make their travel health needs important. ___11___.‎ Vaccines(疫苗) for children In general, there is a higher risk for most vaccine-preventable diseases when travelling abroad. ___12___. If you are planning to travel, check whether your child’s normal vaccine schedule needs to be changed to make sure that they are fully protected before travelling.‎ Malaria(疟疾) and children ‎___13___. Children are particularly at risk of developing severe malaria. If you must travel with children to a malaria risk area, visit a doctor to determine if anti-malarial medication is recommended. If anti-malarial medication is allowed to take, keep them in child-proof containers and out of reach of children.‎ Transportation risks Air travel is safe for healthy children. ___14___. Some airlines will not allow newborns to fly. Ear pain caused by changes in pressure during landing is more common in children than in adults. To lessen the pain, babies should bottle or breast feed. Older children can chew gum or be encouraged to swallow or yawn.‎ ‎___15___‎ Signs and symptoms(症状) of altitude sickness in children are often mistaken for other illnesses. A child with altitude sickness may throw up, hate to eat, or be anxious. Older children may also show headaches, or difficulty breathing. As it is difficult to tell if a child is developing altitude sickness and since altitude sickness can develop rapidly in children, you may travel to no higher than 2,500 m (8,200 feet).‎ A. High altitude sickness B. Pack a travel health kit C. Avoid taking children to areas with a risk of malaria D. And these diseases tend to be more severe (严重的) in children than in adults E. There are many facts to take into consideration when travelling with children F. It may be difficult to give children anti-malaria medication because it tastes unpleasant G. However, it is necessary that you wait until newborns are one to two weeks old before flying ‎【答案】11. E 12. D ‎ ‎13. C 14. G ‎ ‎15. A ‎【解析】‎ ‎【分析】‎ 这是一篇说明文。文章主要说明了四点与孩子一起健康旅行需要注意的事项。‎ ‎【11题详解】‎ 结合上文Their smaller bodies and developing immune systems make their travel health needs important.（他们较小的身体和发展的免疫系统使他们的旅行健康需求很重要。）以及下文是对带孩子旅行需要考虑的问题的论述，故E选项“带孩子旅行时要考虑许多事实。”符合上下文语境。故选E。‎ ‎【12题详解】‎ 结合上文In general, there is a higher risk for most vaccine-preventable diseases when travelling abroad.（一般来说，在国外旅行时，大多数疫苗可预防疾病的风险更高。）中diseases可对应到D选项中these diseases，故D选项“这些疾病在儿童中往往比成人更严重”符合上下文语境。故选D。‎ ‎【13题详解】‎ 结合下文Children are particularly at risk of developing severe malaria.（儿童尤其有患严重疟疾的危险。）可知儿童容易得疟疾，因此要避免带孩子去有疟疾危险的地区。故选C。‎ ‎【14题详解】‎ 结合下文Some airlines will not allow newborns to fly.（一些航空公司不允许新生儿飞行。）中newborns可对应到G选项中you wait until newborns are one to two weeks old ‎ before flying，故G选项“然而，有必要等到新生儿出生一到两周后再飞行。”符合上下文语境。故选G。‎ ‎【15题详解】‎ 本句为本段小标题，结合下文Signs and symptoms of altitude sickness in children are often mistaken for other illnesses. A child with altitude sickness may throw up, hate to eat, or be anxious. （儿童高原反应的症状和体征常被误认为是其他疾病。有高原反应的孩子可能会呕吐、讨厌吃东西或焦虑。）可知是在说明儿童得高原反应的病症，故A选项“高原病；高原反应”符合本段内容。故选A。‎ ‎【点睛】七选五做题技巧。做题的时候边读边做。各个问题附近的句子都需要重点阅读，圈画一些线索，再从选项中寻找相关的特征词用来判断正确答案。带入排除法也是一种很好的方法。另外，如果发现有一题拿不准的，先跳过，先做容易的能做出的题，直到读完整篇文章。至此，文章的要点和主旨、各个段落之间的逻辑关系应该基本就能清楚了。然后再回过去做之前不确定的题目。如第一小题，结合上文Their smaller bodies and developing immune systems make their travel health needs important.（他们较小的身体和发展的免疫系统使他们的旅行健康需求很重要。）以及下文是对带孩子旅行需要考虑的问题的论述，故E选项“带孩子旅行时要考虑许多事实。”符合上下文语境。故选E。‎ 第三部分 英语知识运用 (共两节, 满分45分)‎ 第一节 完形填空 (共20小题; 每小题1.5分, 满分30分)‎ 阅读下面短文, 从短文后各题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中, 选出可以填人空白处的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。‎ I was five foot ten and weighed between 340 and 360 pounds; the exact number depended on whether you took my weight before or after one of my big meals.

I suppose I looked at him the same way.‎ I named him Peety, and we took it ___25___, just as my doctor had suggested. Peety weighed 75 pounds when a healthy ___26___ for him was more like 50 pounds. But on our first walk together, Peety took the lead. We made it halfway down the ___27___ and then came back. Luckily for me, he didn’t walk very fast.

Scientists believe that the surface of the earth is covered by a number of moving plates. Sometimes two plates move towards and push against each other. Sometimes they stop for years but at other times they jump and an earthquake is felt. Because of the movements of these plates, California, China and Japan have a lot of earthquakes. You can see the result in San Francisco where the Pacific plate meets the North American plate. When the 1906 earthquake happened, the Pacific plate jumped 5 to 6 metres to the north.‎ China is a country where many earthquakes happen. The Pacific plate is pushing China from the east and the Indian plate is pushing China from the southwest. The power of this movement created the Himalayas and Mount Qomolongma. It now causes earthquakes in China. We cannot stop earthquakes but we can do things to make sure they do not destroy whole cities. First it is not a good idea to build houses along the line where two plates meet. Second, if you think there may be an earthquake, make sure to build houses on rock rather than sand. Third, you must make the houses as strong as possible. Weak buildings will fall down in an earthquake, but strong ones may stay up.‎ ‎______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________‎ ‎【答案】Earthquakes happen when two moving plates jump and push against each other. Thus, in areas, like California, China and Japan, where different plates meet, earthquakes happen a lot. To protect our cities from this deadly power, we’d better build houses in the regions with few earthquakes or on more solid bases if necessary, making them strong enough to survive earthquakes.‎ ‎【解析】‎ ‎【分析】‎ 这是一篇概要写作。‎ ‎【详解】写作步骤 ‎1）细读原文。首先要仔细阅读短文，掌握文章主旨。文章主要说明了地震发生时，两个移动的板块相互碰撞。因此，在像加利福尼亚、中国和日本这样不同板块交汇的地区，地震经常发生。为了保护我们的城市免受这种致命的力量，我们最好在地震少的地区建房子，或者在必要时建在更坚固的地基上，使它们足够坚固，能够经受住地震。‎ ‎2）弄清结构，归纳段意。概要写作是写全文概要，不是写某一部分的概要，或者就某些问题写出要点。因此一定要弄清文章结构，归纳文章各段大意。‎ ‎3）列出原文要点。分析原文的内容和结构，将内容分项扼要表述并注意在结构上的顺序。在此基础上选出与文章主题密切相关的部分。‎ ‎4）在写作时要特别注意下面几点：‎ ‎（1）概要应包括原文中的主要事实，略去不必要的细节。‎ ‎（2）安排好篇幅的比例，概要应同原文保持协调，即用较多的文字写重要内容，用较少的文字写次要内容。‎ ‎（3）注意要点之间的衔接，要用适当的关联词语贯通全文，切忌只简单地写出一些互不相干的句子，但也不要每两句之间都加关联词语，以免显得生硬。‎ ‎（4）不排斥用原文的某些词句，但不要照搬原文的句子，如果不能完全用自己的话语表达，至少对原文句子做一些同义词替换，如果结构上也能有一些转换会更好。‎ ‎（5）计算词数，看是否符合规定的词数要求。‎ ‎ ‎
