Tracy took photos of the dog and printed off 400 FOUND fliers (传单), and put them in mailboxes. Meanwhile, Ann went to the dollar store and bought some pet supplies, warning her two sons not to fall in love with the dog. At the time, Ann’s son Thomas was 10 years old, and Jack, who was recovering from a heart operation, was 21 years old.
Four days later Ann was still looking after the dog, whom they had started to call Riley. When she arrived home from work, the dog threw itself against the screen door and barked madly at her. As soon as she opened the door, Riley dashed into the boys’ room where Ann found Jack suffering from a heart attack. Riley ran over to Jack, but as soon as Ann bent over to help him the dog went silent.
“If it hadn’t come to get me, the doctor said Jack would have died,” Ann reported to a local newspaper. At this point, no one had called to claim the dog, so Ann decided to keep it.
The next morning Tracy got a call. A man named Peter recognized his lost dog and called the number on the flier. Tracy started crying, and told him, “That dog saved my friend’s son.”

Your house may have an effect on your figure. Experts say the way you design your home could play a role in whether you pack on the pounds or keep them off. You can make your environment work for you instead of against you. Here are some ways to turn your home into part of your diet plan.
Open the curtains and turn up the lights. Dark environments are more likely to encourage overeating, for people are often less self conscious (难为情) when they’re in poorly lit places—and so more likely to eat lots of food. If your home doesn’t have enough window light, get more lamps and flood the place with brightness.
Mind the colors. Research suggests warm colors fuel our appetites. In one study, people who ate meals in a blue room consumed 33 percent less than those in a yellow or red room. Warm colors like yellow make food appear more appetizing, while cold colors make us feel less hungry. So when it’s time to repaint, go blue.
Don’t forget the clock—or the radio. People who eat slowly tend to consume about 70 fewer calories (卡路里) per meal than those who rush through their meals. Begin keeping track of the time, and try to make dinner last at least 30 minutes. And while you’re at it, actually sit down to eat. If you need some help slowing down, turn on relaxing music. It makes you less likely to rush through a meal.
Downsize the dishes. Big serving bowls and plates can easily make us fat. We eat about 22 percent more when using a 12 inch plate instead of a 10 inch plate. When we choose a large spoon over a smaller one, total intake (摄入) jumps by 14 percent. And we’ll pour about 30 percent more liquid into a short, wide glass than a tall, skinny glass.
8. The text is especially helpful for those who care about ____________.
A. their home comforts B. their body shape
C. house buying D. healthy diets
9. A home environment in blue can help people ______________.
A. digest food better B. reduce food intake
C. burn more calories D. regain their appetites
10. What are people advised to do at mealtimes
A. Eat quickly. B. Play fast music.
C. Use smaller spoons. D. Turn down the lights.
11. What can be a suitable title for the text
A. Is Your House Making You Fat B. Ways of Serving Dinner
C. Effects of Self Consciousness D. Is Your Home Environment Relaxing
【答案】8. B 9. B 10. C 11. A
【解析】
【分析】试题分析:想要减肥,除了少吃外,还和房间有关系。建议有4条:1.房间要明亮;2.用冷色系会减少食欲;3.放一些舒缓的音乐就餐;4. 用小的碗碟。
【8题详解】
B 推理判断题。根据全文第一段Here are some ways to turn your home into part of your diet plan.可知,这篇文章更可能是对那些在乎自己的体型的人有帮助。故选B。
【9题详解】
B 细节理解题。根据第三段第二句话in one study,…可知在蓝色的房间内人吃的相对较少。故选B。
【10题详解】
C 推理判断题。最后一段介绍,要想少吃,要用小碗小勺,前面介绍说到,吃得快,房间暗会增加饮食,放舒缓的音乐有助于减少饮食的速度和进食量。故选C。
【11题详解】
A主旨大意题。根据开头的后文Here are some ways to turn your home into part of your diet plan.可知,本文就房间的布置给那些想减肥的人士提了一些建议。所以选A可以更好地概括全文。
考点:科普类短文阅读
D
There is more of a connection between food and culture than you may think. On an individual level, we grow up eating the food of our culture. It becomes a part of who we are. Many associate food from our childhood with warm feelings and good memories and it ties us to our families, holding a special and personal value for us. Food from our family often becomes the comfort food we seek as adults in times of frustration and stress.
On a large scale, traditional food is an important part of culture. It also operates as an expression of culture identity. Immigrants bring it wherever they go, and it is a symbol of pride for their culture and means of coping with homesickness.
Many immigrants open their own restaurants and serve traditional dishes. However, the food does not remain exactly the same. Some materials needed to make traditional dishes may not be readily available, so the taste and flavor can be different from what they would prepare in their home countries. Additionally, immigrants do not only sell dishes to people from the same countries as them, but to people from different countries. Therefore, they have to make small changes about the original dishes to cater to a wider range of customers. Those changes can create new flavors that still keep the cultural significance of the dishes.
We should embrace our heritage(传统)through our culture’s food but also become more informed about other cultures by trying their food. It is important to remember that each dish has a special place in the culture to which it belongs, and is special to those who prepare it. Food is a window into culture, and it should be treated as such.
12. What’s the function of food mentioned in the article
A. To help motivate homesickness. B. To show national identity.
C. To reflect a country’s history. D. To show a community’s superiority.
13. What does the underlined “it”in Paragraph2 refer to
A. The specific traditional food. B. The national culture.
C. A traditional expression of food. D. The old-fashioned taste.
14. Why do some immigrants have to change the original dishes in their restaurant
A. To attach cultural importance to their dishes.
B. To announce the beginning of their life on foreign soil.
C. To make the dishes popular among customers.
D. To present their own food culture in a new way.
15. What’s the author’s attitude towards different food cultures
A. Negative. B. Balanced.
C. Unfair. D. Unchangeable.
【答案】12. B 13. A 14. C 15. B
【解析】
【分析】本文为议论文。作者从食物与文化的关系的角度表达了自己的看法,作者认为传统食物是文化的重要组成部分,它也是一种文化身份的表达,食物是了解文化的窗口。
【12题详解】
细节理解题。根据第2段It also operates as an expression of culture identity. Immigrants bring it wherever they go, and it is a symbol of pride for their culture and means of coping with homesickness. 可知文中提到食物是一种文化身份的表达,故选B。
【13题详解】
词义猜测题。根据上一句中It also operates as an expression of culture identity.可知,此句中it代指“民族文化”,句意为:移民们把它带到任何地方,它是他们的文化自豪感的象征,也是应对思乡之情的手段。故选A。
【14题详解】
细节理解题。根据Additionally, immigrants do not only sell dishes to people from the same countries as them, but to people from different countries. 可知,一些移民不得不改变他们餐馆原有的菜肴是为了迎合不同的顾客。故选C。
【15题详解】
作者态度题。根据最后一段We should embrace our heritage(传统)through our culture’s food but also become more informed about other cultures by trying their food. 可知,我们应该通过我们的文化食物来接受我们的文化遗产,但也应该通过品尝其他文化的食物来了解其他文化,故选B。

41. cleaner
42. that/which
43. amazing

【解析】
【分析】本文是一篇议论文。文中论述了当人们遇到看起来不可能做的事情时应该怎样做呢?本文以花费多年时间解决河流污染为例来告诫我们:当我们面临貌似不可能改善的情况时,一定要有耐心,变化是循序渐进的,是需要付出很多努力的。
【36题详解】
考查时态。句意:无法想象它会被清理干净。根据上文提到的事是1969年的事情,所以这里应该用一般过去时,故填was。
【37题详解】
考查副词。句意:这条河污染严重,甚至着火燃烧了。设空处修饰动词caught和burned,所以要用副词形式actually,意为“事实上,实际上”,故填actually。
【38题详解】
考查冠词。句意:现在已经晚了一年,这条河成为了最杰出的环境清理范例之一。设空处后面是最高级,所以应填定冠词the,故填the。
【39题详解】
考查连词。句意:但是这条河流不是在几天或者甚至几个月内被改变的。设空处前后为并列短语,表示选择关系,故填or。
【40题详解】
考查不定式。句意:花费了多年的工作来减少工业污染和净化河水。It take/took(sb.)some time to do sth.做某事花费(某人)多长时间,为固定句式,故填to reduce。
【41题详解】
考查形容词的比较级。句意:最后,辛苦的工作得到了回报,现在河水比以前的干净多了。根据句中比较级的标志词than可知,该空应用比较级,故填cleaner。
【42题详解】
考查定语从句。句意:可能你有一种让你家人发疯的习惯。根据句子结构可知,该空应是定语从句的引导词,先行词是a habit,引导词在定语从句中作主语,故填that或which。
【43题详解】
考查形容词。句意:虽然有一些令人吃惊的快速改观的故事,但是对我们大部分人来说,变化是循序渐进的,并且也是需要很多努力和工作的。 设空处修饰表示“事物”的名词stories,应该用形容词形式,amazing(令人吃惊的),故填amazing。
【44题详解】
考查名词。句意:同上。定冠词the后面应该填名词,根据be动词are和require可知应是名词复数形式,故填changes。
【45题详解】
考查形容词。句意:要有耐心。此处be动词后面应是形容词作表语,故填patient。

An 80-year-old man was sitting on the sofa in his house along with his 45-year-old highly educated son. Suddenly, a crow rested on their window.
The father asked his son, “What’s this ” The son replied, “It is a crow.”
After a few minutes, the father asked his son for the second time, “What’s this ” The son said, “Father, I have just now told you, it is a crow!”
After a little while, the old father again asked his son the third time, “What’s this ”
At this time, some expression of anger was felt in his son’s tone when he said to his father with a firm reply. “It is a crow, a crow.” A little while later, the father again asked his son the fourth time, “What’s this ”
This time, the son shouted at his father, “Why do you keep asking me the same question again and again, although I have told you so many times ‘IT IS A CROW’. Are you not able to understand this ”
A little later the father went to his room and came back with an old diary, which he had kept since his son was born.
On opening a page, he asked his son to read the page.
When the son read it, the following words were written in the diary:
“Today, my little son aged 3 was sitting with me on the sofa, when a crow was sitting on the window. My son asked me 23 times what it was, and I replied to him all 23 times that it was a crow. I hugged him lovingly each time he asked me the same question. I did not at all feel angry but I rather felt love for my innocent son.”
Paragraph 1:
After reading the diary, the son burst into tears, feeling sorry for what he had done to his father.
________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Paragraph 2:
Feeling ashamed, the son got down to his knees before his father.
________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】After reading the diary, the son burst into tears, feeling sorry for what he had done to his father. He lost his patience with his father when he was asked the same question for the fourth time. However, compared with him, his father was patient even though he asked even 23 times. By comparison, the son began to reflect on his own behavior, admitting his own mistake.
Feeling ashamed, the son got down to his knees before his father. He made an apology to his father, begging his father to forgive him. The father gave him a hug and all old memories came crowding in. It was his father that showed great concern about him. Never would he forget the days when his father used to attend to him with great care and love. How lucky he was to be blessed with such a great father! He promised that he would take care of his father the way he was treated by his father.
【解析】
【分析】这是一篇读后续写作文。
【详解】通过阅读所给文章可知,本文讲述了父亲问了儿子四次“这是什么”,儿子回答是乌鸦后开始厌烦。父亲拿出以前记录不厌其烦回答儿子23遍同样问题的日记让儿子看。
根据提示内容可知,续写第一段要写儿子读完日记后的感受,可以描述儿子看完日记后对自己之前的态度感到了后悔和自责。第二段写读完日记后的做法,可以描述儿子感到惭愧后向父亲道歉,恳求父亲的原谅,以后会像父亲对待自己那样孝敬尊敬父亲。最后还要注意所续写短文的词数应为150左右。
【点睛】续写内容完整,层次分明,结构紧凑,表达准确。另外全文中没有中国式英语的句式,显示了很高的驾驭英语的能力。作者在范文中使用了较多高级词汇,如:be filled with tears,used to do,without feeling irritation, made an apology to,afford to 等。强调句:It was his father that showed great concern about him.宾语从句: He promised that he would take care of his father the way he was treated by his father.

One morning, Ann’s neighbor Tracy found a lost dog wandering around the local elementary school. She asked Ann if she could keep an eye on the dog. Ann said that she could watch it only for the day.
Tracy took photos of the dog and printed off 400 FOUND fliers (传单), and put them in mailboxes. Meanwhile, Ann went to the dollar store and bought some pet supplies, warning her two sons not to fall in love with the dog. At the time, Ann’s son Thomas was 10 years old, and Jack, who was recovering from a heart operation, was 21 years old.
Four days later Ann was still looking after the dog, whom they had started to call Riley. When she arrived home from work, the dog threw itself against the screen door and barked madly at her. As soon as she opened the door, Riley dashed into the boys’ room where Ann found Jack suffering from a heart attack. Riley ran over to Jack, but as soon as Ann bent over to help him the dog went silent.
“If it hadn’t come to get me, the doctor said Jack would have died,” Ann reported to a local newspaper. At this point, no one had called to claim the dog, so Ann decided to keep it.
The next morning Tracy got a call. A man named Peter recognized his lost dog and called the number on the flier. Tracy started crying, and told him, “That dog saved my friend’s son.”
Peter drove to Ann’s house to pick up his dog, and saw Thomas and Jack crying in the window. After a few moments Peter said, “Maybe Odie was supposed to find you, maybe you should keep it.”
4. What did Tracy do after finding the dog
A. She looked for its owner
B. She gave it to Ann as a gift.
C. She sold it to the dollar store.
D. She bought some food for it.
5. How did the dog help save Jack
A. By breaking the door for Ann.
B. By leading Ann to Jack’s room.
C. By dragging Jack out of the room.
D. By attending Jack when Ann was out.
6. What was Ann’s attitude to the dog according to Paragraph 4
A. Sympathetic B. Doubtful
C. Tolerant D. Grateful
7. For what purpose did Peter call Tracy
A. To help her friend’s son.
B. To interview Tracy
C. To take back his dog.
D. To return the flier to her.

Your house may have an effect on your figure. Experts say the way you design your home could play a role in whether you pack on the pounds or keep them off. You can make your environment work for you instead of against you. Here are some ways to turn your home into part of your diet plan.
Open the curtains and turn up the lights. Dark environments are more likely to encourage overeating, for people are often less self conscious (难为情) when they’re in poorly lit places—and so more likely to eat lots of food. If your home doesn’t have enough window light, get more lamps and flood the place with brightness.
Mind the colors. Research suggests warm colors fuel our appetites. In one study, people who ate meals in a blue room consumed 33 percent less than those in a yellow or red room. Warm colors like yellow make food appear more appetizing, while cold colors make us feel less hungry. So when it’s time to repaint, go blue.
Don’t forget the clock—or the radio. People who eat slowly tend to consume about 70 fewer calories (卡路里) per meal than those who rush through their meals. Begin keeping track of the time, and try to make dinner last at least 30 minutes. And while you’re at it, actually sit down to eat. If you need some help slowing down, turn on relaxing music. It makes you less likely to rush through a meal.
Downsize the dishes. Big serving bowls and plates can easily make us fat. We eat about 22 percent more when using a 12 inch plate instead of a 10 inch plate. When we choose a large spoon over a smaller one, total intake (摄入) jumps by 14 percent. And we’ll pour about 30 percent more liquid into a short, wide glass than a tall, skinny glass.
8. The text is especially helpful for those who care about ____________.
A. their home comforts B. their body shape
C. house buying D. healthy diets
9. A home environment in blue can help people ______________.
A. digest food better B. reduce food intake
C. burn more calories D. regain their appetites
10. What are people advised to do at mealtimes
A. Eat quickly. B. Play fast music.
C. Use smaller spoons. D. Turn down the lights.
11. What can be a suitable title for the text
A. Is Your House Making You Fat B. Ways of Serving Dinner
C. Effects of Self Consciousness D. Is Your Home Environment Relaxing
D
There is more of a connection between food and culture than you may think. On an individual level, we grow up eating the food of our culture. It becomes a part of who we are. Many associate food from our childhood with warm feelings and good memories and it ties us to our families, holding a special and personal value for us. Food from our family often becomes the comfort food we seek as adults in times of frustration and stress.
On a large scale, traditional food is an important part of culture. It also operates as an expression of culture identity. Immigrants bring it wherever they go, and it is a symbol of pride for their culture and means of coping with homesickness.
Many immigrants open their own restaurants and serve traditional dishes. However, the food does not remain exactly the same. Some materials needed to make traditional dishes may not be readily available, so the taste and flavor can be different from what they would prepare in their home countries. Additionally, immigrants do not only sell dishes to people from the same countries as them, but to people from different countries. Therefore, they have to make small changes about the original dishes to cater to a wider range of customers. Those changes can create new flavors that still keep the cultural significance of the dishes.
We should embrace our heritage(传统)through our culture’s food but also become more informed about other cultures by trying their food. It is important to remember that each dish has a special place in the culture to which it belongs, and is special to those who prepare it. Food is a window into culture, and it should be treated as such.
12. What’s the function of food mentioned in the article
A. To help motivate homesickness. B. To show national identity.
C. To reflect a country’s history. D. To show a community’s superiority.
13. What does the underlined “it”in Paragraph2 refer to
A. The specific traditional food. B. The national culture.
C. A traditional expression of food. D. The old-fashioned taste.
14. Why do some immigrants have to change the original dishes in their restaurant
A. To attach cultural importance to their dishes.
B. To announce the beginning of their life on foreign soil.
C. To make the dishes popular among customers.
D. To present their own food culture in a new way.
15. What’s the author’s attitude towards different food cultures
A. Negative. B. Balanced.
C. Unfair. D. Unchangeable.
