Let’s have a look at some of them, which may give you some clues on your next travel plan.‎ Mausoleum of the First Qin Emperor The Mausoleum of the First Qin Emperor is located in Lintong county, near Xi’an city, capital of Shaanxi province. A total of 8,000 life-size terracotta warriors, chariots and horses, and hundreds of bronze weapons have been unearthed from it. Many state leaders and experts worldwide believe that the discovery of the mausoleum is a major archeological find and can be called the eighth wonder of the world, paralleling Egypt’s pyramids.‎ Kulangsu, a Historic International Settlement Gulangyu Island, known in the local dialect as Kulangsu, is located on the entry of the Jiulong River, facing the city of Xiamen. The island was occupied by at least a dozen countries, including Great Britain, France and Japan. As a result, Western culture grew rapidly there in the 19th century, especially music. With such a harmonious blend of Western music and Eastern culture, Gulangyu is naturally referred to as the “island of music”. It is famous for its outstanding musicians and musical instruments.‎ Qinghai Hoh Xil Hoh Xil, which means “beautiful girl” in Mongolian, is located in the north-eastern end of the Qinghai-Tibetan Plateau. Hoh Xil National Nature Reserve is China’s largest and the world’s third largest uninhabited area. Because of the high altitude and fierce weather, it is impossible for people to live there, and therefore, it is a paradise for wildlife and home to more than 230 species of wild animals including endangered species such as the Tibetan antelope, which is recognized as the National Class I Protected animal.‎ Huangshan Mountain Huangshan, known as “the loveliest mountain of China”, lies in the south of Anhui province in eastern China. The scenic area covers 154 sq km, and is famous for its peaks, rocks, pines, clouds and springs. It also has a rich cultural heritage. Xu Xiake, a famous traveler of the Ming Dynasty (1368-1644), visited Huangshan twice, and described it in a poem, calling it the best of all mountains in China. Today it holds the same fascination for visitors, poets, painters and photographers.‎ ‎1. Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the text?‎ A. Qinghai Hoh Xil is the largest uninhabited area in the world.‎ B. Kulangsu was occupied for not less than a dozen years.‎ C. Mausoleum is located in the capital city of Shaanxi province.‎ D.

Where does the passage most probably come from?‎ A. A travel guidebook B. An entertainment magazine C. A science fiction D. A history textbook ‎【答案】1. D 2. D 3. A ‎【解析】‎ ‎【分析】‎ 这是一篇广告布告类阅读。文章作者为读者介绍了一些旅游的景点。‎ ‎【1题详解】‎ 细节理解题。答案定位在Huangshan Mountain部分Huangshan, known as “the loveliest mountain of China”, lies in the south of Anhui province in eastern China. The scenic area covers 154 sq km, and is famous for its peaks, rocks, pines, clouds and springs.可知黄山因为它壮丽的风景而出名，故选D。‎ ‎【2题详解】‎ 细节理解题。答案定位在Qinghai Hoh Xil部分Because of the high altitude and fierce weather, it is impossible for people to live there, and therefore, it is a paradise for wildlife and home to more than 230 species of wild animals including endangered species such as the Tibetan antelope, which is recognized as the National Class I Protected animal.可知青海可可西里艰苦的气候和环境使得没有人类在那里居住，所以那里成为野生动植物的天堂，故选D。‎ ‎【3题详解】‎ 推理判断题。答案定位在第一段Let’s have a look at some of them, which may give you some clues on your next travel plan.可知作者为读者提供了一些旅游的景点，所以这篇文章最可能出现在一份旅游指南上，故选A。‎ ‎【点睛】抓住特定信息进行逆向或正向推理 做此类试题要善于抓住某一段话中的关键信息，即某些关键词或短语去分析、推理、判断，利用逆向思维或正面推理，从而推断出这句话所隐含的深层含义。小题3题干问这篇文章最可能出自哪里？第一段Let’s have a look at some of them, which may give you some clues on your next travel plan.中 your next travel plan是关键词，可知作者为读者提供了一些旅游的景点，所以这篇文章最可能出现在一份旅游指南上，故选A。所以同学们一定要抓住关键词进行合理推断。‎ B On the morning of May 20, 1927, Charles A. Lindbergh Jr. took off from a muddy airfield in New York and headed for Paris. During the first fourteen hours of flying, he had had some anxious moments. Sleet had gathered on the wings of the plane and the fog was so thick that he could hardly see the tips of the wings. However, he had come across equally dangerous flying conditions before. Of course, now that he was over the ocean, his parachute（降落伞）was useless. He had only one choice: he had to go on.‎ Although he had waited a long time to make this trip, he did not feel strange or nervous. He was ‎ accustomed to flying alone, and he had flown this route in his imagination many times. The idea of flying across the Atlantic had occurred to him one night when he had been carrying the mail between St. Louis and Chicago. That night, he told himself that a solo non-stop flight between New York and Paris was possible. He knew that airplanes capable of making the long flight over the ocean could be built. A man of skill and endurance could make his dream come true.‎ As he was recalling that night, he reduced the altitude of the plane. Close to the surface of the ocean, he found that the ice on the wings began to melt and the fog disappeared. For the time being, at least, he was safe. The steady sound of the motor seemed like music in his ears. He had perfect confidence in his plane because he knew that there was not a more dependable plane than his. The Ryan Aircraft Company had constructed the plane to meet his special needs. He had worked with the chief engineer of the company, Donald Hall, to produce the airplane as rapidly as possible. Although Hall had worked with the basic design of the Ryan airplane, he had had to make many modifications. As a result, it was a very special airplane. He had named it “The Spirit of St. Louis,” in honour of the St. Louis businessmen whose financial backing had made the trip possible. Besides their money, he had invested all of his own savings, which came to two thousand dollars, in the venture.‎ At 12 :10 on the afternoon of May 21, Lindbergh caught sight of the coast of Ireland. Now that the flight was almost over, he began to relax a little. Finally, after thirty-four hours in the air without sleep, he arrived at Le Bourget Field, in Paris.‎ ‎4. According to Paragraph 2, Lindbergh Jr. didn’t feel nervous about the flight because of the following reasons EXCEPT that _________.‎ A. he was used to flying alone B. he had waited a long time for the trip C. he had imagined flying the route many times D. his plane was specially designed ‎5. What can we infer from Paragraph 3?‎ A. The pilot listened to music as he reduced the altitude of the plane.‎ B. The trip was made possible thanks to the financial support from some businessmen.‎ C. The plane got its name in memory of a non-stop trip.‎ D. The chief engineer designed the airplane independently to meet the pilot’s needs.‎ ‎6. What does the underlined word in Paragraph 3 mean?‎ A. beautiful decorations B. regular repairs C. small changes D. careful arrangements ‎7. Which of the following would be the best title?‎ A. Wings Across the Atlantic B. A Solo Non-stop Flight of 24 Hours C. The Spirit of St. Louis D. An Outstanding Pilot—Charles A. Lindbergh Jr.‎ ‎【答案】4. B 5. B 6. C 7. A ‎【解析】‎ 文章讲述了技术过硬的飞行员Lindbergh Jr.驾驶专门设计的飞机历经34小时从纽约到巴黎横过大西洋的飞行。‎ ‎【4题详解】‎ B 细节推理题。根据第二段He was accustomed to flying alone, and he had flown this route in his imagination many times.和He knew that airplanes capable of making the long flight over the ocean could be built.可知Lindbergh Jr.已经习惯了独自飞行，这条路线在他的想象中已经飞行了很多次了，他的飞机是专门设计的。这些条件让他对这次飞行不紧张，B项不是其原因，故选B.‎ ‎【5题详解】‎ B 推理判断题。根据第三段最后He had named it “The Spirit of St. Louis,” in honour of the St. Louis businessmen whose financial backing had made the trip possible. Besides their money, he had invested all of his own savings, which came to two thousand dollars, in the venture.可知把飞机命名为The Spirit of St. Louis是为了纪念那些在经济上支持他的圣路易斯商人，他们的经济援助使飞行成为可能。故选B.‎ ‎【6题详解】‎ C 猜测词义题。此处指虽然Hall曾参与过Ryan航空的基本设计，但他不得不做了很多修改，因此这是一个专门设计的飞机。modifications指修改，与small changes同义，句中Although和As a result也能帮助推测语境，故选C.‎ ‎【7题详解】‎ A 标题判断题。文章讲述的是技术过硬的飞行员驾驶专门设计的飞机历经34小时从纽约到巴黎横过大西洋的飞行，Wings Across the Atlantic能概括全文，又能吸引读者，适合作为本文标题。故选A.‎ ‎【名师点睛】‎ 词义猜测题，要根据词、词组、句子所在的语境上下文来判断其意义。因此熟练掌握一些猜词技巧是做好这类题的关键。命题者在出这类题时惯用常规词义来麻痹考生，我们要特别注意熟词生义，切不可脱离语境主观臆断。‎ 下面结合文本及近几年高考试题，对词义猜测的技巧加以解读。‎ ‎1.根据定义或上下文解释进行猜测 有时短文中出现一个需要猜测其意义的词或短语，下面接着出现其定义或解释，这就是判断该词或短语意义的主要依据。例如：It will be very hard but also very brittle—that is, it will break easily.从后面that is(也就是说)的解释中我们可以了解到brittle 是“脆”的意思。‎ ‎2.根据同位关系进行猜测 阅读中出现的难词有时后面紧跟一个同位语，对前面的词进行解释，这时可利用同位关系对前面或后面的词义或句意进行猜测。例如：The “Chunnel”, a tunnel(隧道) connecting England and France, is now complete.此句中a tunnel connecting England and France是Chunnel的同位语。因此，The “Chunnel”就是英法之间的海底隧道。‎ ‎3.根据构词法(前缀、后缀、复合、派生等)进行猜测 在英语中，有很多词可以在前面加前缀，在后面加后缀，从而构成一个词，乍看起来，这个词可能是新词，但掌握了一定的构词知识，就不难猜出它的词义。例如：“Our parties are aimed for children 2 to 10,” Anaclerio said, “and they’re very interactive and creative in that they built a sense of drama based on a subject.”文中interactive是由前缀inter-(相互的)和active(活动的，活跃的)而构成的，同时根据上下文的意思可以判断，该词的含义应是“互动的”。‎ ‎4.根据转折或对比关系进行猜测 根据上下句的连接词，如but, however, otherwise等就可以看到前后句在意义上的差别，从而依据某一句的含义，来确定另一句的含义。另外，分号也可以表示转折、对比或不相干的意义。例如：A child’s birthday party doesn’t have to be a hassle; it can be a basket of fun.从前后两句的意思可以看出，hassle和a basket of fun肯定是近乎相反的意义。所以不难判断hassle的意思是“困难，麻烦”。小题3此处指虽然Hall曾参与过Ryan 航空的基本设计，但他不得不做了很多修改，因此这是一个专门设计的飞机。modifications指修改，与small changes同义，句中Although和As a result也能帮助推测语境，故选C.‎ C The discussion on renewable energy has been going on for at least a decade and people have relied on fossil fuels almost entirely for more than a century. However, the situation when fossil fuels were the most efficient and the cheapest source of energy has been left far in the past. Many countries such as Germany and Sweden have already made significant efforts to fix this situation, employing numerous power plants working on the renewable resources of energy. The most effective among these resources is geothermal（地热的）energy.‎ Geothermal energy does not depend on the world’s economic and political situation as strongly as fossil fuels do. Besides, extracting（提炼）fossil fuels adds to the price of energy produced from them. Therefore, geothermal energy is much cheaper than traditional ones, saving up to 80% of the costs over fossil fuels.‎ Being a renewable resource, geothermal energy produces less waste and pollution than traditional energy sources. In geothermal systems, carbon dioxide makes up about 10% of air produced. Overall, in order to produce the electricity that can be used for one hour, the geothermal systems produce 0.1 pound of carbon dioxide and other harmful gases. For a comparison, a power plant producing from gas produces up to 2 pounds of carbon dioxide into the atmosphere, and those power plants that work on coal（煤）produce an astonishing 3.6 pounds of greenhouse gases.‎ Low costs is another reason why using geothermal power plants should be the first choice for many countries. Geothermal heat systems require 25% to 50% less energy for work compared with the traditional systems for heating or cooling. Besides, geothermal equipment is less big: due to the very nature of geothermal energy, geothermal power plants have only a few moving parts, all of which can be easily sheltered inside a relatively small building. What’s more, the life span of geothermal equipment is rather long. All these make geothermal power stations easy to build and keep.‎ ‎8. Fossil fuels are more expensive than geothermal energy partly because _______.‎ A. it is free to use geothermal energy B. the production of fossil fuels costs a lot C. fossil fuels are nearly used up D. geothermal energy doesn’t depend on political situation ‎9. According to Paragraph 3, what can be concluded from the comparison?‎ A. Geothermal energy is environmentally friendly.‎ B. Gas and coal are often used to produce electricity.‎ C. Coal is much more efficient than gas.‎ D. The geothermal systems don’t produce harmful gases.‎ ‎10. Geothermal equipment is usually not as big as that of traditional energy because of______.‎ A. the life span of geothermal equipment B. geothermal power plants C. the nature of geothermal energy D. the small buildings ‎11. What is the main idea of this passage?‎ A. Many countries have benefited from geothermal energy.‎ B. Geothermal energy is well accepted.‎ C. Fossil fuels are being run out of.‎ D. Geothermal energy has many advantages.‎ ‎【答案】8. B 9. A 10. C 11. D ‎【解析】‎ 当前地热资源是最有效的最受欢迎的资源，它具有经济、环保、成本小等特点。‎ ‎【8题详解】‎ B 细节推理题。根据第二段extracting（提炼）fossil fuels adds to the price of energy produced from them.可知提炼化石燃料成本较高，造成了化石燃料价格较高。故选B.‎ ‎【9题详解】‎ A 推理判断题。根据第三段geothermal energy produces less waste and pollution than traditional energy sources.和下文地热系统和发电厂产生二氧化碳的数量比较可知地热是比较环保的资源，故选A.‎ ‎【10题详解】‎ C 细节推理题。根据最后一段due to the very nature of geothermal energy, geothermal power plants have only a few moving parts,‎ 可知由于地热资源的性质，地热设备通常没有传统能源大，易移动。故选C.‎ ‎【11题详解】‎ D 主旨大意题。当前地热资源是最有效最受欢迎的资源，它具有经济、环保、成本小等特点。本文主要介绍的就是地热能源的优点，故选D.‎ D One evening, author Neil’s son was angry. Neil had said one of those things that parents say, like “isn’t it time you were in bed.” His son looked up at him, angry and said, “I wish I didn’t have a dad! I wish I had … a goldfish!” That conversation gave birth to Neil’s book, “The Day I Swapped My Dad for Two Goldfish”. The book is a funny adventure of a son searching for the dad he swapped.‎ Whether they realize it or not, fathers play an important role in their children’s development. Roland Warren, Director of the National Fatherhood Initiative, says that, “The shape of their dads has a role in the kids’ soul.” I agree. We live in the best of times and the worst of times for fatherhood. We live in the best of times because fathers who are engaged in their child’s life spend more time than fathers of any previous generation. We live in the worst of times because there are still millions of children who continue to miss the regular presence of Dad.‎ What difference does a dad make? Are they really that important? For the most part, studies have proved clearly that fathers, whether they live with their children or not, matter in the lives of their children. When fathers are present, they provide economic support for their children and caregiving responsibilities. Well-fathered children are shown to be more emotionally intelligent and socially successful as adults. When fathers are absent, their absence may negatively influence children’s academic achievement, general behavioural adjustment and anger management, especially in males.‎ Yet just being physically present isn’t enough to be a great father. It is important that a dad be warm and emotionally available to his child. Author and researcher, John Gottman, describes this kind of father as an “emotion coaching father”. Emotion coaches are parents who listen to their children’s feelings, see the sharing of feelings as an opportunity for intimacy（亲密）. It is not just the mere presence of fathers that matters, but how they are present. Most children long for and need a loving, devoted and responsible father.‎ ‎12. The author introduces his topic by ______.‎ A. presenting the results of studies B. telling a story C. making a comparison D. interviewing some experts ‎13. What does the author mean in Paragraph 2 by saying “We live in the worst of times … ”?‎ A. Today’s fathers don’t care about their children’s emotions.‎ B. Lots of children’s fathers have to work every day.‎ C. Lots of children’s fathers are absent from their lives.‎ D. Today’s fathers don’t have care giving responsibilities.‎ ‎14. According to the text, a well-fathered child is more likely to _______.‎ A. lose control of anger B. obtain high academic achievement C. have low emotional intelligence D. have good social skills ‎15. We can learn from the text that an “emotion coaching father” is a father who ______.‎ A. gives economic support to his child B. shares his child’s emotions C. tries to change his child’s emotions D. is always available to his child ‎【答案】12. B 13. C 14. D 15. B ‎【解析】‎ 文章讲述了父亲在孩子的成长中扮演着重要的角色。‎ ‎【12题详解】‎ B 推理判断题。文章开头运用了作家Neil儿子说的话，以及Neil由此而感写了一本书的例子，来介绍文章的主题。故选B.‎ ‎【13题详解】‎ C 推理判断题。我们生活在最好的时代，因为现在的父亲比上一代的父亲花费更多的时间忙于孩子生活。我们生活在最糟糕的时代，因为仍有数百万儿童继续怀念父亲定期出现的生活。最糟的年代指还有许多父亲不能陪伴孩子，故选C.‎ ‎【14题详解】‎ D 推理判断题。根据第三段Well-fathered children are shown to be more emotionally intelligent and socially successful as adults.可知有好父亲的孩子更有情商和社交成功，故选D.‎ ‎【15题详解】‎ B 推理判断题。根据第三段Well-fathered children are shown to be more emotionally intelligent和最后一段It is important that a dad be warm and emotionally available to his child.和Emotion coaches are parents who listen to their children’s feelings, see the sharing of feelings as an opportunity for intimacy.可知emotion coaching father能倾听孩子的感受，有亲密的分享机会，分享孩子的情感。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。‎ There are some people who seem to always be surrounded by friends, and there are others who always seem to be standing on the outside, looking in at the crowds of friends.

When we are not in a good mood, we wanted to get someone whom can listen to us. Be a listener is not easy. People always complain about our worries, and a good listener should listen to them but learn to comfort them. To be a good listener can help us make good friend with others. The one who always listen to others tends to be easy-going. When he is in the trouble, his friends will be willing to help him. So let’s learn to be a good listener from then on.‎ ‎【答案】1. / to ‎ ‎2.wanted→want ‎ ‎3.whom→who ‎ ‎4. Be→Being ‎ ‎5. our→their ‎6.but→and ‎ ‎7.friend→friends ‎ ‎8.listen→listens ‎ ‎9.the ‎ ‎10. then→now ‎【解析】‎ 本文主要讲了成为一名好的倾听者的重要意义以及如何成为一名好的倾听者。‎ 考查固定句型。当我们开心时，我们愿意和别人分享我们的快乐。Would like to do sth.是固定句型，意思是愿意做某事，所以like后加to。‎ 考查时态。整篇文章都用的是一般现在时，所以这里也用一般现在时，wanted改成 want。‎ 考查定语从句。who can listen to us.作定语，修饰前面的someone，所以who can listen to us.是一个定语从句，关系词在从句中作主语，指人，用who，所以whom改成who。‎ 考查v+ing。作句子主语，用v+ing，所以Be改成 Being。‎ 考查代词。句意为人们总是抱怨他们的烦恼。表示“他们的”，所以our改成their。‎ 考查连词。句意为一位好的倾听者应该听他们诉苦，并且学会安慰他们。表示“并列关系”，所以but改成and。‎ 考查固定用法。make friends with sb.与某人交朋友，是固定用法，所以friend改成friends。‎ 考查主谓一致。who always listen to others是一个定语从句，修饰先行词The one，who指代 The one，在一般现在时中，且The one是单数意义，所以谓语动词用单数，listen改成listens。‎ 考查固定短语。be in trouble处于困境中，是固定短语，所以删除the。‎ 考查固定短语。所以从现在起，让我们成为一名好的倾听者。from now on从现在开始，是固定用法，所以then改成now。‎ 第二节书面表达（满分25分）‎ ‎52.假定你是学生李华，今年9月将赴加拿大进修学习半年。请给你的加拿大笔友Mike写一封邮件，希望他能帮你找一个合租公寓。要点如下:‎ ‎1. 对公寓的要求；‎ ‎2. 对室友(roommate)的要求；‎ ‎3. 表达感谢。‎ 注意:1. 100词左右；‎ ‎2. 可适当增加细节，以使行文连贯；‎ ‎3. 开头和结尾已给出，不计入总词数。‎ Dear Mike,‎ I am writing to ask you to lend me a hand. ______________________________________________________‎ ‎____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________‎ Looking forward to your early reply.‎ Yours,‎ Li Hua ‎【答案】Dear Mike, ‎ I am writing to ask you to lend me a hand.
