I’m part of the Roots & Shoots program founded by Dr. Jane Goodall. The program is intended to make and promote positive changes in the world. As Dr. Goodall says, “What you do makes a difference, and you have to decide what kind of difference you want to make.”
In Bulgaria, where I live, homeless dogs are everywhere. Many people here turn a blind eye to them. But I cannot ignore the life of a street dog whenever I see one wandering in the street, looking for something to eat. That’s why I’m no longer a food waster. When I see wasted food, I always think of a hungry dog climbing to garbage bins, searching for food that people have thrown there. When eating in a restaurant, I’m not afraid to take leftover food to feed stray cats or dogs.
A week ago, I saw a homeless dog around the garbage bins. Immediately I knelt down, spoke to her softly and ran my hands over her. I could see that she had had puppies. I couldn’t imagine how she could have been able to care for them. Hours earlier, I’d bagged up a plate of leftover fish. As I unwrapped it, she wagged her tail and sniffed at it. She ate all the fish in no time.
It’s sad, isn’t it I can’t understand why many of us waste so much and think little of it. These homeless animals have taught me that food is precious. Even when I don’t have leftovers with me, I’ll take the time to get something from the grocery store to feed them.
I know my power is small, so I hope that next time you see wasted food, do turn it into worthy food. You have the power to save a life!
4. The author uses what Dr. Goodall says to show__________.
A. how we can develop our business
B. why it is important to be great
C. why the program is popular globally
D. how we can change the world positively
5. What can be concluded from the text
A. There are few homeless dogs where the author lives
B. The author takes homeless dogs home and raises them
C. Seeing homeless dogs makes the author never waste food
D. People throw food into garbage bins to feed homeless dogs
6. The author took the leftover fish with him to____________.
A. feed a homeless dog he met
B. eat it when he was hungry
C. look for more homeless animals
D. set an example to those who throw away food
7. The author wrote the text to ask us to__________.
A. value our food B. treat dogs as our friends
C. save wasted food for homeless dogs D. raise homeless dogs and cats
【答案】4. D 5. C 6. A 7. C

There are two kinds of memory: short-term and long-term. Information in long-term memory can be remembered at a later time when it is needed. The information may be kept for days or weeks. However, information in short-term memory is kept for only a few seconds, usually by repeating the information over and over. The following experiment shows how short-term memory has been studied.
Henning studied how students who are learning English as a second language remember vocabulary. The subjects in his experiment were 75 college students. They represented all levels of ability in English: beginning, intermediate (中等), and native speaking students.
To begin, the subjects listened to a recording of a native speaker reading a paragraph in English. Following the recording, the subjects took a 15-question test to see which words they remembered. Each question had four choices. The subjects had to circle the word they had heard in the recording, some of the questions had four choices that sound alike. For example, weather, whether, wither, and wetter are four words that sound alike. Some of the questions had four choices that have the same meaning. Method, way, manner, and system would be four words with the same meaning. Finally the subjects took a language proficiency test.
Henning found that students with a lower proficiency in English made more of their mistakes on words that sound alike; students with a higher proficiency made more of their mistakes on words that have the same meaning. Henning's results suggest that beginning students hold the sound of words in their short-term memory, and advanced students hold the meaning of words in their short-term memory.
8. Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage
A. Henning gave a separate test on vocabulary to his students.
B. Long-term memory can be achieved only by training.
C. It is easier to test short-term memory than long-term memory.
D. Information in short-term memory is different from that in long-term memory.
9. The word "subject" in the passage means _________.
A. the theme of listening material B. the student experimented on
C. a branch of knowledge studied D. a native speaker
10. From Henning's result we can see that ________.
A. advanced students always remember words by their meaning
B. beginners have difficulty distinguishing the pronunciation of words
C. it is difficult to remember words that sound alike
D. it is difficult to remember words that have the same meaning
11. The passage centers on ________.
A. an experiment on students B. two kinds of memory
C. short-term memory D. memory
【答案】8. D 9. B 10. B 11. C
【解析】
【分析】本文属于说明文阅读。作者通过这篇文章主要向我们描述了人类的短时间记忆以及Henning的不同程度英语学习者的记忆实验,结果发现,英语初学者会短期记忆单词的发音,而程度高的学生则是把单词的意义短期记忆。
【8题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段中However, information in short-term memory is kept for only a few seconds, usually by repeating the information over and over.可知然而,短期记忆中的信息只保留几秒钟,通常是通过一遍又一遍地重复这些信息。由此可知,D选项“短期记忆中的信息与长期记忆中的信息不同”正确。故选D。
【9题详解】
词义猜测题。根据第二段中The subjects in his experiment were 75 college students.可知他实验的对象为75名大学生,可推测出subject是指参与实验的学生,故选B。
【10题详解】
推理判断题。根据第四段中Henning found that students with a lower proficiency in English made more of their mistakes on words that sound alike; students with a higher proficiency made more of their mistakes on words that have the same meaning.可知Henning发现,英语熟练程度较低的学生在发音相似的单词上犯的错误更多;熟练程度高的学生在相同意思的单词上犯的错误更多。由此可知,从Henning的研究结果我们可以看出,初学者在区分单词的发音方面有困难。故选B。
【11题详解】
主旨大意题。通读全文,可知文章主要描述了一个记忆测试的实验,根据最终的结论初学者单词的声音保持短期记忆,而程度高的学生能把单词的意义短时记忆。可知文章的中心是短期记忆。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,根据第二段中The subjects in his experiment were 75 college students.可知他实验的对象为75名大学生,可推测出subject是指参与实验的学生,故选B。
D
Starbucks’ founder, Howard Schultz, came up with an idea for his coffee chain while drinking espresso (浓咖啡)in a bar. He took a good product, repackaged it and globalized it. But to many Italians, the coffee served by Starbucks and other branded stores is as far away from proper Italian coffee as you can get, despite the Italian-sounding offerings on their menus.
Now, I am part-Italian and like most Italians, I think that Italy represents the height of coffee culture, against the standard by which all coffee should be measured. My Italian friends and family hate the idea of adding a little sugar juice or other things to their valuable cappuccino (卡布奇诺).I have a coffee machine at home, which is to the Italian kitchen what the kettle is to the British. As far as I’m concerned, the cappuccinos, lattes (拿铁)and espressos served in branded coffee chains taste bitter, a low copy of the real thing.
You’d never ask for a latte in Italy. If you did, you’d get served a glass of milk. Coffee and espresso are the same in Italy. Then there’s the Australian “white coffee”, a halfway house between a Starbucks-style latte and a macchiato(玛奇朵). The “white coffee” has gone global so much that recently it replaced the cappuccino on Starbucks’ menu in some parts of the US.
What’s more, Italians don’t waste time around in coffee shop armchairs drinking cappuccinos while surfing the Internet. Still, when it comes to taste, Italians are trying to reclaim the ground. Part of the problem is the price of coffee. Most Italian bars will not charge more than one euro a cup, which means there isn’t the choice to purchase more high-quality coffee. Italian flavor is held back by the way the coffee is boiled.
I still think I’ll be sticking to home-made coffee from my trusted machine. And I’ll continue to drink it in the Italian way.
12. What’s the purpose of telling the story of Starbucks in Paragraph 1
A. To introduce the topic of the passage.
B. To introduce the history of Starbucks.
C. To present the standard of good coffee.
D. To explain the key to the success of Starbucks.
13. In the author’s opinion, the coffee served in Italian branded stores __________.
A. contains too much sugar juice
B. represents the Italian coffee culture
C. is very different from that served in the US
D. cannot meet the Italian standard of good coffee
14. Italians prefer home-made coffee due to the fact that___________.
A home-made coffee is much cheaper
B. they can produce proper Italian coffee at home
C. each family has a tradition to use the coffee machine
D. they can have access to the Internet when drinking coffee at home
15. According to the passage, we can infer that_______.
A. Starbucks coffee doesn’t agree with the Italians
B. white coffee tastes sweeter than cappuccino
C. Italian coffee culture is widely spread all over the world
D. the British like the kettle the same way as the Italians like coffee
【答案】12. A 13. D 14. B 15. A
【解析】
【分析】这是一篇说明文。文章以星巴克为开篇引入了文章主题——意大利的咖啡文化,作者和大多数意大利人一样,认为意大利代表着咖啡文化的高度,与所有咖啡的标准相比,意大利的咖啡应该是标准的。说明了意大利咖啡的特色以及星巴克咖啡不适合意大利人。
【12题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段中But to many Italians, the coffee served by Starbucks and other branded stores is as far away from proper Italian coffee as you can get, despite the Italian-sounding offerings on their menus.可知但是对很多意大利人来说,星巴克和其他品牌的咖啡和你能买到的正宗意大利咖啡相差太远,尽管他们的菜单上有意大利风味。由此可知,第一段讲述星巴克的故事的目的是引入文章的主题。故选A。
【13题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中As far as I’m concerned, the cappuccinos, lattes and espressos served in branded coffee chains taste bitter, a low copy of the real thing.可知据我所知,品牌咖啡连锁店提供的卡布奇诺、拿铁和意式浓缩咖啡尝起来很苦,是正宗的低仿品。由此可知,在作者看来,意大利品牌店提供的咖啡无法达到意大利优质咖啡的标准。故选D。
【14题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段中I have a coffee machine at home, which is to the Italian kitchen what the kettle is to the British. As far as I’m concerned, the cappuccinos, lattes and espressos served in branded coffee chains taste bitter, a low copy of the real thing.可知我家里有一台咖啡机,它对于意大利厨房就像水壶对于英国厨房一样重要。据我所知,品牌咖啡连锁店提供的卡布奇诺、拿铁和意式浓缩咖啡尝起来很苦,是正宗的低仿品。由此可推知,意大利人更喜欢在家煮咖啡,因为他们可以在家里煮出正宗的意大利咖啡。故选B。
【15题详解】
推理判断题。根据倒数第二段中What’s more, Italians don’t waste time around in coffee shop armchairs drinking cappuccinos while surfing the Internet.可知更重要的是,意大利人不会把时间浪费在咖啡店的扶手椅上,一边喝着卡布奇诺一边上网。由此可推知,星巴克咖啡不适合意大利人。故选A。
【点睛】隐含意义推理判断题。这类题的题干中常含有:infer/suggest/imply/conclude/intend/purpose/be likely to等标志性词语。解决这类问题时要理解文章潜在的含义和作者所给的提示。同时,要对文章的含义和作者的暗示作出合理的猜测和推断。如第四小题,根据倒数第二段中What’s more, Italians don’t waste time around in coffee shop armchairs drinking cappuccinos while surfing the Internet.可知更重要的是,意大利人不会把时间浪费在咖啡店的扶手椅上,一边喝着卡布奇诺一边上网。由此可推知,星巴克咖啡不适合意大利人。故选A。

【解析】
【分析】本文是议论文,本文阐述了由教育部提议通过雇佣更多的体育教师和重新设计中小学的体育课程来增强学生“阳刚之气”这一举措引发的不同观点。
【41题详解】
考查动词时态和主谓一致。句意:最近,为了应对“男子气概危机”,教育部提议通过雇佣更多的体育教师和重新设计中小学的体育课程来强调“阳刚之气”。分析句子结构可知空格处为句中谓语动词,且句首有常与现在完成时态连用的时间状语Recently,所以使用现在完成时态,又因专有名词the Education Ministry是第三人称单数形式。故填has proposed。
【42题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意:最近,为了应对“男子气概危机”,教育部提议通过雇佣更多的体育教师和重新设计中小学的体育课程来强调“阳刚之气”。由句中并列连词and可知空格处与句中stressing为并列关系,一起作句中的宾语,应用动名词形式。故填redesigning。
【43题详解】
考查固定句型。句意:一些社交媒体用户表达了对这一提议的支持,其中一人写道:“很难想象这样一个娘娘腔的男孩在外部入侵时还能保卫自己的国家。”。“It hard/difficult to do…(做……有困难)”为固定句型,其中it是形式主语,真正的主语是后面动词不定式。故填to imagine。
【44题详解】
考查形容词。句意:但其他人看到了对性别歧视的证据和对性别刻板印象的观念。分析句子结构可知the ____4____ (fix) impression of gender stereotypes与evidence of sexual discrimination并列为名词短语,又因空格前有冠词the,后有名词impression。由此可知,应填入形容词修饰名词。故填fixed。
【45题详解】
考查名词。句意:官方的中央电视台周六在其微博上写道:“教育不仅仅是培养‘男人’和‘女人’。培养承担责任的意愿更重要。”。因空格前有冠词a可知,应填入名词单数形式。故填willingness。
【46题详解】
考查定语从句。句意:主持人还对“阳”进行了描述,“男人在举止、精神和体格方面表现出‘阳气’,这是一种美,但‘阳气’并不仅仅意味着‘阳刚行为’。”。分析句子结构可知,空格处是非限制性定语从句,修饰先行词the spirit of yang,且关系代词在定语从句中作主语,应用关系代词which引导。故填which。
47题详解】
考查副词。句意:虽然教育部的新计划并没有明显提出对男孩和女孩实行不同的待遇,但像北京师范大学健康专家刘文利这样的教育工作者看到了一些威胁。分析句子成分可知did not propose是句子谓语动词,应使用evidence副词形式修饰动词。故填evidently。
【48题详解】
考查冠词。句意:虽然教育部的新计划并没有明显提出对男孩和女孩实行不同的待遇,但像北京师范大学健康专家刘文利这样的教育工作者看到了一些威胁。句中expert是可数名词单数,泛指,所以前面应加上冠词,又因expert的音标中是以元音音素开头,所以应使用冠词an。故填an。
【49题详解】
考查介词。句意:刘女士说,即使即使提及“女气男青年”一词都也可能导致这类学生因为他们的女性化的表达和身份而受到更多的欺凌。reference to...(提到/提及……)为固定短语,结合句意:“即使提及‘女气男青年’一词都能……”可知,应填入介词to。故填to。
【50题详解】
考查代词。句意:刘女士说,即使是对“女气男青年”的提及也可能导致这类学生因为他们的女性化的表达和身份而受到更多的欺凌。根据句意可知这里是说“他们的女性化的表达”,所以应用形容词性物主代词,作定语修饰womanlike expression and identity。故填their。

With Mother’s birthday approaching, I decided to give her surprise and celebrate it for her on my own. After finishing my work, I learned what to bake a cake online. I had everything needed after I started the baking process careful as instructed. I preheated the oven and mixed with the milk, eggs, butter or oil into the dry mixture. It take me roughly 20—30 minutes to bake the cake.
It was really a challenging job. And then, I was immediately busy prepared all the dishes. Seeing what she had done, my mother was moved with tear rolling in her eyes.

5.去掉with
6.or→and
7.take→took

【解析】
【分析】这是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了作者在母亲生日时,亲自准备蛋糕和饭菜作为惊喜,母亲感动的热泪盈眶的故事。
【详解】1.考查冠词。句意:妈妈的生日快到了,我决定给她一个惊喜,自己给她庆祝一下。“一个惊喜”,表示泛指,应用不定冠词修饰,且surprise为辅音音素开头的单词,应用 a。故在surprise前面添加a。
2.考查宾语从句连接词。句意:完成工作后,我在网上学会了如何烤蛋糕。分析句子可知,此处表示“烤蛋糕的方式”,在从句中作状语,应用 how引导宾语从句。故将what改为how。
3.考查介词。句意:在我按照指示仔细开始烘焙之前,我已经准备好了所有需要的东西。正确的时间顺序为,在开始烘焙之前,我已经准备好了所有需要的东西。故将after改为before。
4.考查副词。句意:在我按照指示仔细开始烘焙之前,我已经准备好了所有需要的东西。分析句子可知,此处用来修饰动词“start”,应用“careful”的副词形式。故将careful 改为carefully。
5.考查介词。句意:我预热了烤箱,把牛奶、鸡蛋、黄油和油混入干的混合物中。分析句子可知,此处表示“把牛奶、鸡蛋、黄油和油混入干的混合物中”,“mix”为及物动词,后边不用介词,直接加宾语,且此处“mix sth into sth”,意为“把某物混入某物”,是固定搭配。故去掉with。
6.考查连词。句意:我预热了烤箱,把牛奶、鸡蛋、黄油和油混入干的混合物中。分析句子可知,此处表示“将牛奶,鸡蛋,黄油和油混入干的混合物中”,应为并列关系。故将or改为and。
7.考查时态。句意:烤这个蛋糕花了我大约20到30分钟。根据文章内容可知,此处描述的是过去的状况,应用一般过去时。故将take改为took。
8.考查固定搭配。句意:然后,我立即忙着准备所有的菜。分析句子可知,此处为“忙于准备所有的菜”,应用“be busy doing sth”,意为“忙着做某事”,是固定搭配。故将prepared改为preparing。
9.考查代词。句意:看到我所做的一切,母亲感动得热泪盈眶。分析句子可知,此处指“我为母亲做的这一切”,宾语从句中主语应为“我”。故将she改为I。
10.考查名词复数。句意:看到我所做的一切,母亲感动得热泪盈眶。此处表示“母亲感动得热泪盈眶”,句中“tear”用作名词时,意思是“眼泪”,是可数名词,故此处应用复数形式表示泛指。故将tear改为tears。

I’m part of the Roots & Shoots program founded by Dr. Jane Goodall. The program is intended to make and promote positive changes in the world. As Dr. Goodall says, “What you do makes a difference, and you have to decide what kind of difference you want to make.”
In Bulgaria, where I live, homeless dogs are everywhere. Many people here turn a blind eye to them. But I cannot ignore the life of a street dog whenever I see one wandering in the street, looking for something to eat. That’s why I’m no longer a food waster. When I see wasted food, I always think of a hungry dog climbing to garbage bins, searching for food that people have thrown there. When eating in a restaurant, I’m not afraid to take leftover food to feed stray cats or dogs.
A week ago, I saw a homeless dog around the garbage bins. Immediately I knelt down, spoke to her softly and ran my hands over her. I could see that she had had puppies. I couldn’t imagine how she could have been able to care for them. Hours earlier, I’d bagged up a plate of leftover fish. As I unwrapped it, she wagged her tail and sniffed at it. She ate all the fish in no time.
It’s sad, isn’t it I can’t understand why many of us waste so much and think little of it. These homeless animals have taught me that food is precious. Even when I don’t have leftovers with me, I’ll take the time to get something from the grocery store to feed them.
I know my power is small, so I hope that next time you see wasted food, do turn it into worthy food. You have the power to save a life!
4. The author uses what Dr. Goodall says to show__________.
A. how we can develop our business
B. why it is important to be great
C. why the program is popular globally
D. how we can change the world positively
5. What can be concluded from the text
A. There are few homeless dogs where the author lives
B. The author takes homeless dogs home and raises them

There are two kinds of memory: short-term and long-term. Information in long-term memory can be remembered at a later time when it is needed. The information may be kept for days or weeks. However, information in short-term memory is kept for only a few seconds, usually by repeating the information over and over. The following experiment shows how short-term memory has been studied.
Henning studied how students who are learning English as a second language remember vocabulary. The subjects in his experiment were 75 college students. They represented all levels of ability in English: beginning, intermediate (中等), and native speaking students.
To begin, the subjects listened to a recording of a native speaker reading a paragraph in English. Following the recording, the subjects took a 15-question test to see which words they remembered. Each question had four choices. The subjects had to circle the word they had heard in the recording, some of the questions had four choices that sound alike. For example, weather, whether, wither, and wetter are four words that sound alike. Some of the questions had four choices that have the same meaning. Method, way, manner, and system would be four words with the same meaning. Finally the subjects took a language proficiency test.
Henning found that students with a lower proficiency in English made more of their mistakes on words that sound alike; students with a higher proficiency made more of their mistakes on words that have the same meaning. Henning's results suggest that beginning students hold the sound of words in their short-term memory, and advanced students hold the meaning of words in their short-term memory.
8. Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage
A Henning gave a separate test on vocabulary to his students.
B. Long-term memory can be achieved only by training.
C. It is easier to test short-term memory than long-term memory.
D. Information in short-term memory is different from that in long-term memory.
9. The word "subject" in the passage means _________.
A. the theme of listening material B. the student experimented on
C. a branch of knowledge studied D. a native speaker
10. From Henning's result we can see that ________.
A. advanced students always remember words by their meaning
B. beginners have difficulty distinguishing the pronunciation of words
C. it is difficult to remember words that sound alike
D. it is difficult to remember words that have the same meaning
11. The passage centers on ________.
A. an experiment on students B. two kinds of memory
C. short-term memory D. memory
D
Starbucks’ founder, Howard Schultz, came up with an idea for his coffee chain while drinking espresso (浓咖啡)in a bar. He took a good product, repackaged it and globalized it. But to many Italians, the coffee served by Starbucks and other branded stores is as far away from proper Italian coffee as you can get, despite the Italian-sounding offerings on their menus.
Now, I am part-Italian and like most Italians, I think that Italy represents the height of coffee culture, against the standard by which all coffee should be measured. My Italian friends and family hate the idea of adding a little sugar juice or other things to their valuable cappuccino (卡布奇诺).I have a coffee machine at home, which is to the Italian kitchen what the kettle is to the British. As far as I’m concerned, the cappuccinos, lattes (拿铁)and espressos served in branded coffee chains taste bitter, a low copy of the real thing.
You’d never ask for a latte in Italy. If you did, you’d get served a glass of milk. Coffee and espresso are the same in Italy. Then there’s the Australian “white coffee”, a halfway house between a Starbucks-style latte and a macchiato(玛奇朵). The “white coffee” has gone global so much that recently it replaced the cappuccino on Starbucks’ menu in some parts of the US.
What’s more, Italians don’t waste time around in coffee shop armchairs drinking cappuccinos while surfing the Internet. Still, when it comes to taste, Italians are trying to reclaim the ground. Part of the problem is the price of coffee. Most Italian bars will not charge more than one euro a cup, which means there isn’t the choice to purchase more high-quality coffee. Italian flavor is held back by the way the coffee is boiled.
I still think I’ll be sticking to home-made coffee from my trusted machine. And I’ll continue to drink it in the Italian way.
