【解析】
【原文】M: Hi! My name is Stephen and I live in a tiny flat in London. I don’t live with my parents. They are living in the countryside. Sometimes I take a bus to visit them. An advantage of city life is having everything you need so close at hand. Living beside the underground station means I don’t need a car to get around, which saves me money. I take the underground to work every day. I can also use it when I go to visit my friends and relatives. Also, there are shopping centers and museums everywhere.
Of course, London, just like many other large cities, has its problems. Londoners don’t chat on the train or the bus and there is much less sharing spirit than in the country where my parents live. That’s why they couldn’t get used to the city life. They always want to share something with others. In fact, they don’t understand how I can put up with (忍受) the noise and pollution either. However, I see that as a small problem. As a famous poet once said, “He who is tired of London is tired of life. ”

An advance in electronic publishing could make the book you are reading seem as dated as a silent film. Publishers hope to exploit the growing success of ebooks by releasing versions with added soundtracks and musical accompaniments(伴奏).
The noises in the first multimedia books include rain hitting a window in one of Conan Doyle’s Sherlock Holmes tales. Works by Oscar Wilde and Rudyard Kipling are also available. A Salman Rushdie story with an orchestral score (配乐) will follow this year. In America, works by Shakespeare and Jane Austin have already been released with music and background noise so that, for example, readers can hear tea cups hitting each other in Mr Darcy’s garden as they read Pride and Prejudice.
Supporters argue that sound effects are the next logical development for ebooks and will add excitement for younger readers. Critics, however, will argue that the noises will ruin the simple pleasure of enjoying the imagination required to read a book.
Caroline Michel, chief executive of the literary agency PFD, said the new generation of readers was used to multiple sensory input. She said, “Concentration now is such that people have split computer screens where they may be watching television and replying to an email at the same time. If that’s what the market wants then we should respond to the market.”
Booktrack’s sound effects work by figuring out the user’s reading speed. Each time you “turn” a page, the software reassesses where you have reached in the text and times the sounds to switch on accordingly. If the soundtrack is not in agreement with the words, a click on any word will re-set it.
Some authors fear a soundtrack could destroy the peace and quiet of libraries and ruin the pleasure of reading. David Nicholls, author of One Day, said, “This sounds like the opposite of reading. I have enough trouble reading an ebook because I’m constantly disturbed by emails and so I’ve given up on it for the time being.”
Stuart MacBride, the crime writer whose novel Shatter the Bones was an ebook bestseller, sells 18% of his books as electronic downloads. He said, “If I’m reading, I will do the noises in my head. I don’t need someone to tell me what cutting a tree sounds like. That would upset me.”
24. In whose ebook can we hear the sound of a specific weather condition
A. Conan Doyle’s. B. Shakespeare’s.
C. Salman Rushdie’s. D. Rudyard Kipling’s.
25. What does Caroline Michel think of multimedia books
A. They go against human nature.
B. They have an unpredictable future.
C. They are in line with market trends.
D. They may inspire readers’ imagination.
26. What’s Stuart MacBride’s attitude to soundtracks
A. Indifferent. B. Disapproving.
C. Appreciative. D. Disrespectful.
27. How does the author develop the text
A. By presenting different opinions.
B. By telling his personal experiences.
C. By giving scientific research results.
D. By comparing various types of ebooks.
【答案】24. A 25. C 26. B 27. A
【解析】
【分析】本文是一篇议论文。本文论述了对于电子书是否有配乐现象两种不同的态度。
【24题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段“The noises in the first multimedia books include rain hitting a window in one of Conan Doyle’s Sherlock Holmes tales.（第一批多媒体书籍中的声音包括柯南·道尔的《夏洛克·福尔摩斯故事》中雨打在窗户上的声音）”可知，我们可以在Conan Doyle的电子书中听到特定天气状况的声音。故选A。
【25题详解】
细节理解题。根据第四段“If that’s what the market wants then we should respond to the market.（如果这是市场想要的，那么我们应该对市场做出反应）”可知，卡洛琳·米歇尔认为多媒体书籍符合市场趋势。故选C。
【26题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段Stuart MacBride说的话“If I’m reading, I will do the noises in my head. I don’t need someone to tell me what cutting a tree sounds like. That would upset me.（如果我在读书，我就会在脑子里想象出声音。我不需要别人告诉我砍树是什么声音。那会让我心烦意乱的）”可推断，斯图尔特·麦克布莱德对配乐的态度是不赞成的。故选B。
【27题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段“Supporters argue that sound effects are the next logical development for ebooks and will add excitement for younger readers. Critics, however, will argue that the noises will ruin the simple pleasure of enjoying the imagination required to read a book.（支持者认为，声音效果是电子书的下一个合理发展，将增加年轻读者的兴奋感。然而，批评人士会认为，噪音会破坏享受阅读所需的想象力的简单乐趣）”及全文可推断，本文通过陈述对电子书是否有配乐的不同态度而展开的。故选A。
C
People love the “comeback kid”, the “down and out guy”, and any variety of defeated people whom we’ve seen fail, then manage to dust off their bootstraps (独自所作的努力) and take on life again. Everyone should get this chance in life, and they should get it over and over and over again. Everyone, that is, except our teenagers, right
At least that is how parents, teachers, college admission officers, coaches, and others who spend time with adolescents have led all of us to believe. We have all bought the great lie that there is not only zero room for today’s teenagers to fail academically, but any form of failure is a great embarrassment to everyone involved. And I do mean everyone.
Ever notice how quick parents are to share college acceptance letters, scholarships, SAT scores, and pretty much all the perfect resumes (简历) of their high schoolers for everyone to see on social media Surely it makes moms and dads extremely proud. We all want to take credit for our teenager’s great accomplishments, and while that is all well and good, it also means that when failure happens, we scatter like sheep when a wolf arrives, because failure on their part means failure on our part.
Adolescent brains do not have the bandwidth to process that failure is temporary, and that high school is but a small spot on their life map. Unfortunately, while we may talk that talk, our actions do not bolster it. Anyone who has been through the competitive college application and scholarship process knows this all too well, because there is no room for any form of failure. But this is wrong.
Tell your kids that failure doesn’t define them. Tell them it’s normal, natural, and expected. Tell them failure creates comeback stories, and the opportunity to rise even higher and better than before. And finally, tell them you don’t worry that they will fail; you worry that they won’t.
28. What is the problem of today’s teenagers
A. They cannot make their choices. B. They are easily defeated.
C. They’re not allowed to fail. D. They face various lies.
29. What does the underlined word “bolster” in Paragraph 4 mean
A. Affect. B. Support.
C. Remove. D. Improve.
30. What does the author want to tell us in the last paragraph
A. Success is very important. B. Hard work means success.
C. Success needs family’s support. D. Failure just leads to success.
31. What is the main idea of the text
A. Parents should allow themselves to fail. B. Teens are wrong about their college life.
C. Parents are teens’ lifelong supporters . D. Teens should know failing is OK.
【答案】28. C 29. B 30. D 31. D
【解析】
【分析】这是一篇议论文。文章讲述了当今青少年不被允许失败的社会现象，并指出这种想法是错误的，青少年应该知道失败是可以的。
【28题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段“People love the “comeback kid”, the “down and out guy”, and any variety of defeated people whom we’ve seen fail, then manage to dust off their bootstraps (独自所作的努力) and take on life again. Everyone should get this chance in life, and they should get it over and over and over again. Everyone, that is, except our teenagers, right (人们喜欢“卷土重来的孩子”，“穷困潦倒的家伙”，以及我们见过的任何失败的人，然后设法摆脱他们的束缚，重新开始生活。每个人都应该在生活中得到这样的机会，他们应该一次又一次地得到这样的机会。所有人，除了我们的青少年，对吧 )”可知，当今青少年的问题是他们不被允许失败。故选C项。
【29题详解】
词句猜测题。根据第四段中“Unfortunately, while we may talk that talk, our actions do not bolster it. (不幸的是，虽然我们可能只是说说而已，但我们的行动并不能bolster它)”由“不幸地”和“只是说说而已”可知事实上行动并不支持失败的发生，因此猜测划线词bolster意为“支持”。故选B项。
30题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段中“Tell your kids that failure doesn’t define them. Tell them it’s normal, natural, and expected. Tell them failure creates comeback stories, and the opportunity to rise even higher and better than before. (告诉你的孩子，失败不能定义他们。告诉他们这很正常，很正常，很正常。告诉他们，失败可以创造东山再起的故事，给他们一个比以前爬得更高、更好的机会)”可知，作者在最后一段中想告诉我们失败只导致成功。故选D项。
【31题详解】
主旨大意题。根据最后一段“Tell your kids that failure doesn’t define them. Tell them it’s normal, natural, and expected. Tell them failure creates comeback stories, and the opportunity to rise even higher and better than before. And finally, tell them you don’t worry that they will fail; you worry that they won’t. (告诉你的孩子，失败不能定义他们。告诉他们这很正常，很正常，很正常。告诉他们，失败可以创造东山再起的故事，给他们一个比以前爬得更高、更好的机会。最后，告诉他们你不担心他们会失败；你担心他们不会失败)”可知，这篇文章的主旨是告诉我们青少年应该知道失败是可以的。故选D项。
D
The long expected regulations governing off-campus tutoring programs were recently made public. The severity of the regulations exceeds (超过) the worse expectations of those engaged in the once thriving (繁荣的) training sector. Then related businesses listed in domestic and overseas markets experienced sharp declines. These training agencies have experienced explosive growths in recent years by cashing in on increasing anxiety among Chinese parents over the education of their children.
For parents, the common means of gaining competitive edge for their children is to get them into better schools, by paying more for extracurricular training. It came as no surprise that when Indian movie Hindi Medium was shown a few years ago, it became a huge box office success, likely because the parental anxiety described in the film resonates with many Chinese viewers struggling with their children’s education. Like their Indian counterparts, parents here would do anything to get their children into the right school.
While most children like me would undoubtedly welcome the government regulation of the training sector, parental responses are more mixed. Asked to comment on this, a mother whose son is taking four training courses was less than enthusiastic. The training is going on as scheduled, and she insisted that she would terminate the training only on condition that all other parents have done the same, and that there was still significant difference between professional instruction and learning on one's own. Her attitude is not atypical (非典型的，反常的), and probably well justified by past experience.
According to Yang Dongping, professor at Beijing Institute of Technology, Chinese parental anxiety stands out in two aspects. First, the anxiety affects all social levels no matter how their financial circumstances are. Second, for the children the competition gets started steadily earlier, from primary schools a few years ago to kindergartens now.
Thus, a fundamental change to the situation involves a change in attitude on the part of the whole society. It would mean a change to the narrow-minded perception of education as a good school and a profitable job. Hopefully the current policies would go on to address growing superstition (迷信，迷信思想) in diplomas and “elite” schools.
Only when education goes beyond simple scores and standards and evolves into a lifelong pursuit of sweetness and light could it hope to be truly self-motivating and sustainable. The guidelines might be effective in tackling (应对、处理) off-campus tutoring, but addressing the pervasive (弥漫的，充斥的) anxiety will involve coordinated, lasting effort.
32. Which of the following statements is true
A. Most people related to training business expected the new regulations to be severe.
B. The training businesses gain economic growth because of parents increasing anxiety.
C. Off - campus training is the only way of getting students into better schools for parents.
D. Chinese parents attach greater importance to children’s education than Indian parents.
33. The word “resonate” in paragraph two means .
A. to be similar to what somebody thinks
B. to differ from what others believe
C. to have a special meaning to somebody
D. to make a deep, clear sound
34. What can we infer from the passage
A. Most children would undoubtedly welcome the government regulation.
B. In Yang’s view, parents are anxious because children go to school earlier.
C. The whole society’s view of education needs to be renewed and broadened.
D. We should believe that a good education means diplomas and elite schools.
35. What’s the best title of this passage
A. How to Solve Increasing Chinese Parental Anxiety
B. Efforts Beyond Regulations Needed to Improve Education
C. Parents’ Support for New Regulations on the Training Sector
D. New Regulations on Off - campus Tutoring Programs Made Public
【答案】32. B 33. A 34. C 35. B
【解析】
【分析】这是一篇说明文。文章介绍了最新公布的关于管理校外辅导项目的规定引起的反响并指出改善教育的本质在于超越监管的努力。
【32题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段中“These training agencies have experienced explosive growths in recent years by cashing in on increasing anxiety among Chinese parents over the education of their children. (这些培训机构近年来经历了爆炸式增长，它们利用了中国父母对子女教育日益加剧的焦虑)”可知，选项B“由于家长们的不安心理增加，培训行业的经济得到了增长”是正确的。故选B项。
【33题详解】
词句猜测题。根据第二段中“It came as no surprise that when Indian movie Hindi Medium was shown a few years ago, it became a huge box office success, likely because the parental anxiety described in the film resonates with many Chinese viewers struggling with their children’s education. (几年前，当印度电影《Hindi Medium》上映时，它获得了巨大的票房成功，这并不令人意外，可能是因为影片中描述的父母的焦虑，引起了许多为子女教育而苦苦挣扎的中国观众的resonate)”由电影“获得了巨大的票房成功”和“这并不令人意外”可知是因为这种焦虑引起了为子女教育操心的中国父母的共鸣，因此猜测划线词resonate意为“与某人所想的相似”。故选A项。
【34题详解】
推理判断题。根据第五段中“Thus, a fundamental change to the situation involves a change in attitude on the part of the whole society. It would mean a change to the narrow-minded perception of education as a good school and a profitable job. (因此，情况的根本改变涉及整个社会的态度的改变。这将意味着改变将教育视为一所好学校和一份有利可图的工作的狭隘观念)”可知，全社会关于教育的观念需要更新和拓宽。故选C项。
【35题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第一段中“The long expected regulations governing off-campus tutoring programs were recently made public. (人们期待已久的管理校外辅导项目的规定最近公布了)”和最后一段中“Only when education goes beyond simple scores and standards and evolves into a lifelong pursuit of sweetness and light could it hope to be truly self-motivating and sustainable. (只有当教育超越了简单的分数和标准，发展成为一种对美好和光明的终身追求时，它才有希望成为真正的自我激励和可持续的)”可知，本文介绍了最新公布的关于管理校外辅导项目的规定引起的反响并指出改善教育的本质在于超越监管的努力，可知，本文的最佳标题选项B“改善教育需要超越监管的努力”符合题意。故选B项。

How do you clean a huge 400-year-old painting that is a national treasure If you said, “Very carefully,” you’d be right.____36____ But that’s exactly what the Rijksmuseum, the Netherland’s national museum, is planning on doing.
The Night Watch is the most important painting in the history of the Netherlands. ____37____ For Dutch people, this painting is one of their greatest treasures. The country was shocked in 1975 when someone cut the painting with a knife. That time, about 40 years ago, was the last time that the painting had been repaired.
Since then, the painting has become dirtier. ____38____ That’s why the museum is going to “restore” it — to clean it and try to make it look like it did back when Rembrandt first painted it.
Working on such a famous and important painting is a job that can’t be done quickly. ____39____ They don’t even plan to start on it until next July. Until then, experts hired by the museum will be carefully studying the painting with X-rays and other tools, and planning how they will restore it.

【解析】
【分析】这是一篇说明文。文章介绍伦勃的名画《守夜人》即将在游客观赏的同时被翻新修复。
【36题详解】
上文“If you said, “Very carefully,” you’d be right.”（ 如果你说“非常小心”，你是对的。）可知，所要小心做是正确的，以及下文“但这正是荷兰国家博物馆Rijksumeum计划要做的。”可知，空处和下文是转折关系，所以说明他们做了别人认为不可能的事情——清洗400年前的国宝巨幅油画。B选项中的“You probably didn’t say”和下文存在转折关系，符合语境。故选B。
【37题详解】
上文“The Night Watch is the most important painting in the history of the Netherlands.”（ 《守夜人》是荷兰历史上最重要的一幅画。）说明，接下来要介绍《守夜人》这幅画的一些基本情况。E项“它是由荷兰艺术家伦勃朗在1639年至1642年间绘制的。”符合语境。故选E。
【38题详解】
下文“That’s why the museum is going to “restore” it — to clean it and try to make it look like it did back when Rembrandt first painted it.”（这就是为什么博物馆要“修复”它——清理它，让它看起来像伦勃朗第一次画它时的样子。）说明，上文要讲为什么要修复它，清理它的原因。G项中的“gotten a slightly cloudy coating on it（上面有一层稍微混浊的涂层）”说明了清理他的原因，符合语境。故选G。
【39题详解】
上文“Working on such a famous and important painting is a job that can’t be done quickly.”（ 修复这么一幅著名而重要的画是一件不可能很快完成的工作。）说明修复这幅画不是一项容易的工作，需要很长时间。C项“博物馆预计整个项目需要几年时间。”符合语境，故选C。
【40题详解】
下文“This will allow the experts to work, but also allow visitors to see both the painting and the work the experts are doing. ”（这将允许专家工作，但也允许参观者看到绘画和专家正在做的工作。）说明，空处所交代的内容为能够允许专家工作，但也允许参观者看到绘画和专家正在做的工作的措施。F项中的“build a special clear glass case around the painting”(在画周围建造一个特殊的透明玻璃箱）符合语境。故选F。

【41题详解】
考查名词词义辨析。句意：他告诉我他上一所学校是在邻国。A. hospital医院；B. school学校；C. shop商店；D. lab实验室。由下文“from a migrant family”可知Daniel来自移民家庭，所以这里要表达他之前是在邻国上学。故选B项。

【43题详解】
考查动词短语辨析。句意：我怀疑这个来自移民家庭的友善、衣衫褴褛还满脸笑容的男孩完全不知道自己被投进了一个全是五年级狮子的兽穴。A. pushed against推撞；B. driven through（驾车）穿过；C. moved from从……搬走；D. thrown into投入。这里使用被动语态，用比喻的手法，像猎物被投进兽穴，指的就是Daniel被安排进了作者所带的班级。故选D项。
【44题详解】
考查介词词义辨析。句意：二十五个孩子全都怀疑地看着Daniel，直到那天下午的踢球比赛。A. after在……之后；B. until直到；C. because of因为；D. instead of而不是。由下文可知，踢球比赛中Daniel的表现让班里的孩子们接受了他，这里应使用until表示前句动作的截止。故选B项。

考查名词词义辨析。句意：接下来轮到Charles了。A. lesson课程；B. turn轮到机会；C. note笔记；D. choice选择。由下文“After he failed the second strike”可知Charles在Daniel之后踢第二球，这里用it’s one’s turn表示“轮到……了”。故选B项。

【48题详解】
考查动词词义辨析。句意：在他没能攻入第二球后，全班开始对他发出嘲讽的嘘声。A. save保存；B. lend借出；C. owe欠；D. send发送。Daniel表现不佳，因此全班向他发出嘘声。故选D项。
【49题详解】
考查动词词义辨析。句意：Daniel靠过来鼓励Charles：“忘掉他们，帅哥。你可以的。”A. ordered命令；B. encouraged鼓励；C. praised表扬；D. promised承诺。后文Daniel对Charles说的话“Forget them, kid. You can do it.”显然是在鼓励他。故选B项。

【52题详解】
考查动词词义辨析。句意：怎么判断水果成熟没有。A. doubt怀疑；B. ask询问；C. tell分辨；D. research研究。这里描绘的情境是孩子们缠着Daniel请教各种问题，因此这一句就是问他如何辨别水果是否成熟。故选C项。

考查动词词义辨析。句意：怎样正确对待他人，哪怕是Charles。A. examine检查；B. refuse拒绝；C. imitate模仿；D. treat对待。由句末的“even Charles”再联系先前孩子们对Charles的态度可知，Daniel也会教他们怎样正确对待别人、不歧视、不偏见。故选D项。
【54题详解】
考查名词词义辨析。句意：圣诞假期的前一天，学生们总是会给老师们带来礼物。A. gifts礼物；B. problems问题；C. rocks石头；D. messages信息。由句中交代的时间节点“The day before Christmas vacation”推知，学生们会送圣诞礼物给老师。故选A项。

【解析】
【分析】这是一篇说明文。近年来，随着中国经济社会发展，一种新的潮流正在中国流行起来——“国潮”。文章介绍了什么是国潮以及“国潮”热由何而来，背后的意义。
【61题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意：根据最近发布的一份报告，在生活资讯平台大众点评上，关于“国潮”的搜索量比去年同期增长了170%，评论也增长了近40%。分析句子，relate与其所修饰的名词之间是被动关系，可知此处要用过去分词作后置定语，修饰名词searches。故填related。
【62题详解】
考查时态。句意：根据最近发布的一份报告，在生活资讯平台大众点评上，关于“国潮”的搜索量比去年同期增长了170%，评论也增长了近40%。分析句子可知，此处是本句的谓语动词，主语是searches，根据from the same period last year可知此处时态是现在完成时。故填have risen。
【63题详解】

【66题详解】
考查代词。句意：因此，该公司在2018年的营业收入增长了20%，这是该品牌自成立以来首次营收突破100亿元大关。根据名词founding可知此处要用形容词性物主代词its。故填its。
【67题详解】
考查定语从句关系词。句意：现在，国潮正进入下一阶段，在这个阶段，国潮的成功将首先依赖于获得文化自信，而非西方认可。分析句子可知，此处是一个非限制性定语从句，先行词是the next stage，根据定语从句its success will rely中缺少状语，可知此处要用关系副词where。故填where。
【68题详解】
考查介词。句意：现在，国潮正进入下一阶段，在这个阶段，国潮的成功将首先依赖于获得文化自信，而非西方认可。固定短语rely on“依赖于”。故填on。
【69题详解】
考查时态。句意：无论国潮的趋势怎样发展，有一件事不会改变：“是人们对国家发展的积极态度，对民族文化的认同，更是文化自信的提升。” 中国传媒大学经济与管理学院教授姚林青说道。根据主语是people’s positive attitude toward the country’s development and their (recognize) of and growing confidence in national culture，此处是谓语动词，描述事实，时态是一般现在时，抽象名词作主语，谓语动词用单数。故填is。

第一节 短文改错（共10小题；每小题1分，满分10分）
71. 假定英语课上老师要求同桌之间交换修改所写故事，请你修改你同桌写的以下故事。文中共有10处语言错误，每句中最多有两处。每处错误仅涉及一个单词的增加、删除或修改。
增加：在缺词处加一个漏字符号（∧），并在其下面写出该加的词。

修改：在错的词后划一横线并在该词下面写出修改后的词。
注意：1. 每处错误及修改均仅限一词。
2. 只允许修改10处，多者（从第11处起）不计分。
I’m a senior student and I’m now in the need of your help as I can’t stand the great pressure.
Every day I have to have lesson at school for nine hours and spend at least three to four hours finish my homework. Our teenagers are eager to play and enjoy ourselves, but we hardly have anytime to do that we want. However, we don’t even have enough sleep. There seem to have three cases about the overload: the pressure of examination, too many homework and high expectations from the parents. We have often warned that if we don’t do our best, we won’t have the chance to go university. Sorry to bother you but it’ll be kind of you to give me some help. Thank you!
【答案】1.去掉in后的the
2. lesson→lessons
3. finish→finishing
4. Our→We
5.that→what
6.However→Besides
7. have→be
8. many→much
9. have→are
10. go 后面加to
【解析】
【分析】这是一篇应用文。文章是一封高中学生的信件，在信里该学生描述了自己学习所面对的巨大压力，希望可以得到收信人的帮助。
【详解】1. 考查介词。句意：我是一个高中学生，现在我需要你的帮助，因为我忍受不了巨大的压力。in need of“需要”为固定短语，不需要介词。故删除in后的the。
2.考查名词的数。句意：每天我都不得不在学校上九个小时的课，并且至少花三个小时完成家庭作业。lesson“课”为可数名词，一天的课不止一节，此处应用其复数形式。故lesson改为lessons。
3.考查动名词。句意：每天我都不得不在学校上九个小时的课，并且至少花三个小时完成家庭作业。根据spend time (in) doing sth.“花时间做某事”可知，此处应用动名词作宾语。故finish改为finishing。
4.考查代词。句意：我们青少年渴望玩耍，但我们机会没有时间做我们想做的。分析句子可知，此处应用代词we作主语，teenagers作we的同位语。故Our改为We。
5. 考查连词。句意：我们青少年渴望玩耍，但我们机会没有时间做我们想做的。动词do后是宾语从句，连接词作want的宾语，且意为“……的事情”，应用连接代词what。故that改为what。
6. 考查副词。句意：此外，我们甚至没有足够的睡眠时间。结合上下文可知，此处和上文为递进而非转折关系，应用副词besides。故However改为Besides。
7.考查固定句型。句意：似乎有三种情况与超负荷学习有关：考试的压力、太多的家庭作业和家长的高期望。表示“有，存在”应用there be，there seem to be为常用句型，意为“似乎有……”。故have改为be。
8.考查形容词。句意：似乎有三种情况与超负荷学习有关：考试的压力、太多的家庭作业和家长的高期望。homework为不可数名词，应用形容词much修饰。故many改为much。
9. 考查被动语态。句意：我们经常被警告如果不尽全力，就不会有上大学的机会。warn为主句谓语动词，主语we和warn之间为被动关系，且陈述现在的客观事实，应用一般现在时的被动语态，主语是we，be动词用are。故have改为are。
10.考查固定短语。句意：我们经常被警告如果不尽全力，就不会有上大学的机会。结合句意“上大学”表达为go to university，故在go后加to。

An advance in electronic publishing could make the book you are reading seem as dated as a silent film. Publishers hope to exploit the growing success of ebooks by releasing versions with added soundtracks and musical accompaniments(伴奏).
The noises in the first multimedia books include rain hitting a window in one of Conan Doyle’s Sherlock Holmes tales. Works by Oscar Wilde and Rudyard Kipling are also available. A Salman Rushdie story with an orchestral score (配乐) will follow this year. In America, works by Shakespeare and Jane Austin have already been released with music and background noise so that, for example, readers can hear tea cups hitting each other in Mr Darcy’s garden as they read Pride and Prejudice.
Supporters argue that sound effects are the next logical development for ebooks and will add excitement for younger readers. Critics, however, will argue that the noises will ruin the simple pleasure of enjoying the imagination required to read a book.
Caroline Michel, chief executive of the literary agency PFD, said the new generation of readers was used to multiple sensory input. She said, “Concentration now is such that people have split computer screens where they may be watching television and replying to an email at the same time. If that’s what the market wants then we should respond to the market.”
Booktrack’s sound effects work by figuring out the user’s reading speed. Each time you “turn” a page, the software reassesses where you have reached in the text and times the sounds to switch on accordingly. If the soundtrack is not in agreement with the words, a click on any word will re-set it.
Some authors fear a soundtrack could destroy the peace and quiet of libraries and ruin the pleasure of reading. David Nicholls, author of One Day, said, “This sounds like the opposite of reading. I have enough trouble reading an ebook because I’m constantly disturbed by emails and so I’ve given up on it for the time being.”
Stuart MacBride, the crime writer whose novel Shatter the Bones was an ebook bestseller, sells 18% of his books as electronic downloads. He said, “If I’m reading, I will do the noises in my head. I don’t need someone to tell me what cutting a tree sounds like. That would upset me.”
24. In whose ebook can we hear the sound of a specific weather condition
A. Conan Doyle’s. B. Shakespeare’s.
C. Salman Rushdie’s. D. Rudyard Kipling’s.
25. What does Caroline Michel think of multimedia books
A. They go against human nature.
B. They have an unpredictable future.
C. They are in line with market trends.
D. They may inspire readers’ imagination.
26. What’s Stuart MacBride’s attitude to soundtracks
A. Indifferent. B. Disapproving.
C. Appreciative. D. Disrespectful.
27. How does the author develop the text
A. By presenting different opinions.
B. By telling his personal experiences.
C. By giving scientific research results.
D. By comparing various types of ebooks.

People love the “comeback kid”, the “down and out guy”, and any variety of defeated people whom we’ve seen fail, then manage to dust off their bootstraps (独自所作的努力) and take on life again. Everyone should get this chance in life, and they should get it over and over and over again. Everyone, that is, except our teenagers, right
At least that is how parents, teachers, college admission officers, coaches, and others who spend time with adolescents have led all of us to believe. We have all bought the great lie that there is not only zero room for today’s teenagers to fail academically, but any form of failure is a great embarrassment to everyone involved. And I do mean everyone.
Ever notice how quick parents are to share college acceptance letters, scholarships, SAT scores, and pretty much all the perfect resumes (简历) of their high schoolers for everyone to see on social media Surely it makes moms and dads extremely proud. We all want to take credit for our teenager’s great accomplishments, and while that is all well and good, it also means that when failure happens, we scatter like sheep when a wolf arrives, because failure on their part means failure on our part.
Adolescent brains do not have the bandwidth to process that failure is temporary, and that high school is but a small spot on their life map. Unfortunately, while we may talk that talk, our actions do not bolster it. Anyone who has been through the competitive college application and scholarship process knows this all too well, because there is no room for any form of failure. But this is wrong.
Tell your kids that failure doesn’t define them. Tell them it’s normal, natural, and expected. Tell them failure creates comeback stories, and the opportunity to rise even higher and better than before. And finally, tell them you don’t worry that they will fail; you worry that they won’t.
28. What is the problem of today’s teenagers
A. They cannot make their choices. B. They are easily defeated.
C. They’re not allowed to fail. D. They face various lies.
29. What does the underlined word “bolster” in Paragraph 4 mean
A. Affect. B. Support.
C. Remove. D. Improve.
30. What does the author want to tell us in the last paragraph
A. Success is very important. B. Hard work means success.
C. Success needs family’s support. D. Failure just leads to success.
31. What is the main idea of the text
A. Parents should allow themselves to fail. B. Teens are wrong about their college life.
C. Parents are teens’ lifelong supporters . D. Teens should know failing is OK.
D
The long expected regulations governing off-campus tutoring programs were recently made public. The severity of the regulations exceeds (超过) the worse expectations of those engaged in the once thriving (繁荣的) training sector. Then related businesses listed in domestic and overseas markets experienced sharp declines. These training agencies have experienced explosive growths in recent years by cashing in on increasing anxiety among Chinese parents over the education of their children.
For parents, the common means of gaining competitive edge for their children is to get them into better schools, by paying more for extracurricular training. It came as no surprise that when Indian movie Hindi Medium was shown a few years ago, it became a huge box office success, likely because the parental anxiety described in the film resonates with many Chinese viewers struggling with their children’s education. Like their Indian counterparts, parents here would do anything to get their children into the right school.
While most children like me would undoubtedly welcome the government regulation of the training sector, parental responses are more mixed. Asked to comment on this, a mother whose son is taking four training courses was less than enthusiastic. The training is going on as scheduled, and she insisted that she would terminate the training only on condition that all other parents have done the same, and that there was still significant difference between professional instruction and learning on one's own. Her attitude is not atypical (非典型的，反常的), and probably well justified by past experience.
According to Yang Dongping, professor at Beijing Institute of Technology, Chinese parental anxiety stands out in two aspects. First, the anxiety affects all social levels no matter how their financial circumstances are. Second, for the children the competition gets started steadily earlier, from primary schools a few years ago to kindergartens now.
Thus, a fundamental change to the situation involves a change in attitude on the part of the whole society. It would mean a change to the narrow-minded perception of education as a good school and a profitable job. Hopefully the current policies would go on to address growing superstition (迷信，迷信思想) in diplomas and “elite” schools.
Only when education goes beyond simple scores and standards and evolves into a lifelong pursuit of sweetness and light could it hope to be truly self-motivating and sustainable. The guidelines might be effective in tackling (应对、处理) off-campus tutoring, but addressing the pervasive (弥漫的，充斥的) anxiety will involve coordinated, lasting effort.
32. Which of the following statements is true
A. Most people related to training business expected the new regulations to be severe.
B. The training businesses gain economic growth because of parents increasing anxiety.
C. Off - campus training is the only way of getting students into better schools for parents.
D. Chinese parents attach greater importance to children’s education than Indian parents.
33. The word “resonate” in paragraph two means .
A. to be similar to what somebody thinks
B. to differ from what others believe
C. to have a special meaning to somebody
D. to make a deep, clear sound
34. What can we infer from the passage
A. Most children would undoubtedly welcome the government regulation.
B. In Yang’s view, parents are anxious because children go to school earlier.
C. The whole society’s view of education needs to be renewed and broadened.
D. We should believe that a good education means diplomas and elite schools.
35. What’s the best title of this passage
A. How to Solve Increasing Chinese Parental Anxiety
B. Efforts Beyond Regulations Needed to Improve Education
C. Parents’ Support for New Regulations on the Training Sector
D. New Regulations on Off - campus Tutoring Programs Made Public
