He also built a marble obstacle course, a pool table, a robot WALL-E and many others. His most liked video, a toy bank in the shape of a house, has gained more than 2.7 million likes.

Looking for a place to take a rest，sip a cup of coffee and have a furry companion Welcome to animal-themed cafes.
In recent years，the combination of pets and catering has become incredibly popular in many cities throughout China. While many cafes started out offering the company of cats and dogs，others are expanding their range. Some cafes include animals like squirrels，raccoons and even capybaras.
In reviews，internet users have commented that their main reason for visiting these businesses is to interact closely with animals they have only seen from afar.
“The customers love animals. They are curious about these pets and want to raise one at home，but circumstances don’t allow it，”said pet cafe owner Tian Rui，Liu Jing，a Beijing resident who works in finance，loves pigs，but her parents would not endorse her getting one as a pet. The 24-year-old had to admire the animals through videos and images. But now，she can have close contact with an adorable pig every weekend in a pet cafe.
Also，these pet cafes serve as a shelter for those who find comfort in being around animals. “In this place，you can get close to the cute little ones in a very comfortable way without having to worry about safety and hygiene(卫生)—overall，it is an extremely comfortable experience，”said Zhao Ming from Tianjin，30，a frequent pet cafe visitor.
Animal lovers also expect the pet cafes to change people’s attitudes toward pets. Animals like ducks，pigs and sheep have been served as food for many years. People hardly see them as pets. But the pet cafes help shift their attitude from seeing them as playthings to regarding them as family members or close friends.
“Whether at home or in stores，these little animals are there for companionship and they bring warmth to our hearts. They care and understand just like family members. They give us much more than the love we give to them，”Zhao said.

Fabien Cousteau is the grandson of Jacques Cousteau, an ocean scientist who brought the wonders of the sea to the attention of people around the world. Jacques Cousteau helped invent the Aqua-Lung(水肺) , now used by divers everywhere. Fabien Cousteau has followed a similar path,exploring the sea as a scientist and working to protect the oceans.
Oceans cover more than 70% of our planet. NOAA says we have created maps of less than 20% of the world's oceans, and only 5% have been explored. Space seems to have gotten much more attention , even though it's farther away. The International Space Station( ISS) has been around for more than 20 years , and more people have gone to the moon than have gone to the deepest point in the ocean.
"The ocean is our life support system. It is the very reason why we exist in the first place,'Fabien says.
But though the ocean is all around us , studying it is a challenge. Divers are limited in how far down they can go and how long they can stay below. Returning to the surface can be dangerous.Fabien has announced a plan to build a large research station under the ocean named Proteus,which is designed to deal with many of those problems. The power for the station is expected to come from solar energy and the movement of the ocean. Fabien says that the research base won't justbe used to study and help protect the sea, but also to research new ways of creating energy , and perhaps even searching for new medicines. Proteus is also expected to have the first under water greenhouse in the world , so that the lab will be able to grow some of its own food.
Like the ISS , Proteus is designed so that it can grow in the future , as scientists decide to add new sections or equipment to the station. Fabien hopes to have the lab completed and ready to use by 2023.
12. What do we know about Fabien Cousteau
A. He's doing what Jacques once did.
B. He took part in the work in the ISS.
C. He built an undersea laboratory.
D. He helped invent the Aqua-Lung.
13. Why does the author mention the statistics in paragraph 2
A. To show the world's oceans are vast.
B. To prove oceans and space are vital.
C. To advise people to protect oceans.
D. To tell why oceans need exploring.
14. Which of the following can best describe Proteus
A. Environment-friendly.
B. Water-saving.
C. Expensive.
D. Risky.
15. What is the best title for the text
A. Fabien's Ocean Research Achievements
B. Proteus:Research Lab Growing Gradually
C. Proteus : Plan for Underwater Version of ISS
D. Fabien's Dream about Promoting his Station

【答案与解析】12-15：ADAC
12．A【命题意图】考查细节理解题。根据文章第一段“Fabien Cousteau has followed a similar path, exploring the sea as a scientist and working to protect the oceans.（法比安·库斯托也走了类似的道路，作为一名科学家探索海洋，致力于保护海洋。）”可知，法比安也在做他祖父曾经做过的事，致力于探索和保护海洋。故选A项。
13.D【命题意图】考查推理判断题。通过文章第二段中，作者引用很多数据：“Oceans cover more than 70% of our planet.(海洋覆盖了地球70%以上的面积)”，” NOAA says we have created maps of less than 20% of the world's oceans, and only 5% have been explored.(美国国家海洋和大气管理局表示，我们绘制的海洋地图不到世界海洋的20%，只有5%的海洋得到了探索)”。再结合本文主题是“探索海洋”，因此作者用这些数据是想说明“海洋需要探索的原因”。故选D项。
14.A.【命题意图】考查推理判断题。根据倒数第二段“The power for the station is expected to come from solar energy and the movement of the ocean.（该电站的电力预计将来自太阳能和海洋运动。）”可知电力的主要来源是环保的，因此推测出，这是一个环保友好型的研究站。故选A项。
15．C 【命题意图】考查主旨大意题。全文介绍了著名的海洋探险家法比安的一个大胆计划：要在海底建“国际空间站的水下版”。内容包括了为什么要建研究站，研究站的电力来自哪里以及研究站将要做的事情等。由此可知C项适合做文章标题。故选C项。

阅读下面短文，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。
Music makes you more creative.16., they come up with more creative solutions, according to researchers. It may be because music improves your brain’s flexibility. Another reason may be that it relaxes you enough for the creative juices to flow. But don’t play music too loudly.
Music can help during surgery. 17.. After surgery, it helps reduce pain. An analysis of 73 studies confirmed that listening to music before, during or after surgery reduces anxiety and pain levels, which in turn means less pain medication.
18. Studies have found that when you’re running, biking or walking, you’ll go farther with music on. Music relieves your discomfort and motivates you to stay on. The effect is so obviously great that the author of a review examining the psychological effects of music on exercise called music “a type of legal performance-improvement drug”.
Music aids sleep. Listening to music before bed can help you fall asleep faster and wake up less often during the night. 19.. In one study, seniors with sleep problems who listened to 45 minutes of soft slow music before bed reported a 35 percent improvement in their sleep.
Music gets you to ignore the passing of time. Scientists have shown repeatedly that people judge a period of waiting shorter when music is playing. Businessmen use that to their advantage, playing music so you stay longer and spend more. For instance, more drinks and food are sold in bars and restaurants when music is played. 20., grocery sales increase by 38 percent.
A.In this case, you’ll feel more relaxed in the morning
B.And if the background music is slow
C.Then you play a piece of brief music
D.When people listen to happy music than when they sit in silence

Another reason may be that it relaxes you enough for the creative juices to flow.可知他们会想出更有创意的解决方案。这可能是因为音乐提高了你大脑的灵活性。另一个原因可能是它能让你足够放松，让你的创造性思维得以流动。由此可知，本句是在说明当人们听着快乐的音乐时，他们会更有创造力。故D选项“当人们听着快乐的音乐，而不是静静地坐着”符合上下文语境，故选D。
17.G考察过渡性句子。根据后文After surgery, it helps reduce pain. An analysis of 73 studies confirmed that listening to music before, during or after surgery reduces anxiety and pain levels, which in turn means less pain medication.可知手术后，它有助于减轻疼痛。一项对73项研究的分析证实，在手术前、手术中或手术后听音乐可以降低焦虑和疼痛水平，从而减少止痛药。由此可知，本句是在说明手术前听音乐可以缓解焦虑。故G选项“手术前听音乐已被证明可以缓解焦虑”符合上下文语境，故选G。
18.F考察概括性句子。根据后文Studies have found that when you’re running, biking or walking, you’ll go farther with music on. Music relieves your discomfort and motivates you to stay on.可知研究发现，当你跑步、骑自行车或走路时，你会随着音乐走得更远。音乐可以缓解你的不适，激励你坚持下去。由此可知，运动时听音乐能让人坚持下去，走得更远，打消放弃的念头。故F选项“音乐能让你打消放弃锻炼的念头”符合上下文语境，故选F。
19.A考察过渡性句子。根据上文Music aids sleep. Listening to music before bed can help you fall asleep faster and wake up less often during the night.可知音乐辅助睡眠。睡前听音乐可以帮助你更快入睡，减少夜间醒来的次数。由此可知，音乐有助于睡眠质量的提高，那么结果就是人们早上醒来会感到更放松。故A选项“在这种情况下，你会在早上感到更放松”符合上下文语境，故选A。
20.B考察解释性句子。根据上文Scientists have shown repeatedly that people judge a period of waiting shorter when music is playing. Businessmen use that to their advantage, playing music so you stay longer and spend more.可知科学家们已经反复证明，当音乐响起时，人们会判断等待的时间变短了。商家利用这一点，播放音乐，让你待得更久，花得更多。以及后文grocery sales increase by 38 percent.可知杂货店的销售额会增加38%。由此可知，在酒吧和餐厅播放的背景音乐如果是舒缓的，那么人们会停留更久，消费更多，从而导致杂货店的销售额会增加38%。故B选项“如果背景音乐是慢的”符合上下文语境，故选B。

Smiling
Smile is a universal language, which is widely used throughout the world. 1., the meaning of a smile in different cultures may be different. Depending on different cultures, smiling can express joy and2. (amuse), but it can also indicate embarrassment. The following examples show this point of view:
In an attempt to be open and 3.(friend), people in the United States smile a lot. Every one smiles at each other and this nonverbal communication shows being polite in the United States. But in China, smiling is not only 4.expression of happiness, but also a way to avoid5.(be) embarrassed. Chinese people like smiling when they are embarrassed in order to avoid embarrassment. Smiling is a kind of good will but not sneer (嘲笑). For example: When a child 6.(fall) off from a bike, the adults in China may smile,7.is a kind of gentle encouragement and may not be a kind of impolite laugh.
Related8.the smile is the laugh. Also, different cultures have different 9.(meaning) about laugh. Americans can enjoy a very heartfelt belly (腹部) laugh that comes from the deepest emotions while most Chinese may think10.silly to laugh that way.
语篇类型：说明文 主题语境：人与社会---微笑是世界语言--不同的文化其含义不同。
【答案与解析】
答案： 41.However 42.amusement 43.friendly 44.an 45.being
46.falls 47.which 48.to 49.meanings 50.it / it’s
【文章大意】文章介绍了不同文化中微笑的含义。
解析：41.考查副词。句意：微笑是世界语言，在全世界被广泛使用。但是，在不同的文化中，微笑的意思是不同的。
42.考查名词。该空在句中和joy并列，做express的宾语，故要用名词。
43.考查形容词。friendly是形容词，和open并列，做be的表语。
44.考查冠词。句意：微笑不仅仅是快乐的表示，而且是避免尴尬的方式。expression意为“表达，表示，表现”，是可数名词。结合句意，该处应用不定冠词。且expression的发音开头是元音音素，故该空应填不定冠词an。
45.考查非谓语动词。avoid意为“避免”，后面接名词或动名词做宾语。
46.考查时态和主谓一致。根据“主将从现”原则，该从句应用一般现在时态。且主语为单数a child，根据主谓一致原则，该空填falls。
47.考查定语从句。分析句子结构可知，“____7______is a kind of gentle encouragement and may not be a kind of impolite laugh”是非限制性定语从句，修饰前面整个句子，引导词在从句中做主语，故要用关系代词which引导该从句。
48.考查介词。be related to意为“和……有关”，是固定搭配。
49.考查名词。meaning意为“意思”，是可数名词，该空前有different修饰，故要填复数形式。
50.考查代词。it在句中做形式宾语，指代“to laugh that way”。另外，“_____10________silly to laugh that way”还可看作think的宾语从句，在该从句中，it是形式主语，代指“to laugh that way”，is是系动词。
【名师点拨】
定语从句中的关系词的选择,通过两个步骤来定：
1. 找出先行词，也就是被定语从句修饰的词。同学们往往可以根据两句的意思，确定它们有关联的词，即先行词。
2. 判断先行词在从句中起什么句子作用，即在从句中充当什么成分。如果从句中缺少主语，宾语，表语和定语，则要用关系代词。如果从句中缺少状语，则要用关系副词。同学们要牢记定语从句的关系代词，关系副词有哪些。而且要了解一些特殊的情况。例如第七小题中，从句中缺少主语，且修饰整个句子，故要用关系代词which引导该从句。

参考答案
1．go→went 2:mother前加a 3:baby→babies 4.:that→who 5:her→their
6:删除need后的of 7:more→much 8:posting→post 9:convenient→conveniently
10:but→and
语篇类型：记叙文。主题语境： 人与社会---小鸟长大离开妈妈---而网络使我们跟妈妈紧密联系。
【文章大意】文章通过观察小鸟长大后离开鸟妈妈，想到了自己的父母。庆幸的是，因为网络，父母的“巢”从来不会空。
1.考查动词的时态。句意：在我去年的暑假，我去乡下玩。由于时间状语last summer holiday可知句子用一般过去时。故把go改成went。
2.考查不定冠词。句意：我看见一只鸟妈妈呆在她的巢在一棵大树上，看着她的一些孩子飞走。结合句意可知在名词mother前加不定冠词a，表示“泛指”。故在mother前加a。
3.考查名词复数。句意：我看见一只鸟妈妈呆在她的巢在一棵大树上，看着她的一些孩子飞走。some of +名词复数，baby的复数是babies。故把baby改成babies。
4.考查定语从句。句意：我想她一定为她的孩子们感到非常自豪，因为他们现在能够自己找到食物了。此处children是先行词，指人，在后面的非限制性定语从句中作主语，that不能引导非限制性定语从句。故把that改成who。
5.考查形容词性物主代词。句意：我想她一定为她的孩子们感到非常自豪，因为他们现在能够自己找到食物了。根据前面的children可知，此处指“他们”自己的食物。故把her改成their。
6.考查及物动词。句意：但她也可能会感到失落，因为他们不再需要她的日常照顾了。此处need是及物动词，后面直接跟宾语。故删除need后的of。
7.考查much+比较级。句意：对我父母来说，事情就简单多了。此处much修饰比较级加强语气。故把more改成much。
8.考查不定式。句意：我们已经建立了家庭博客来发布我们的照片和日记。此处是动词不定式作目的状语。故把posting改成post。
9.考查副词。句意：一旦我离开去上大学，我们可以方便地分享我们的经验，互相支持。此处share是动词，由副词修饰。故把convenient改成conveniently。
10.考查并列连词。句意：一旦我离开去上大学，我们可以方便地分享我们的经验，互相支持。该句是并列谓语。故把but改成and。

Zhang Shuai has a sense of fun that is being widely appreciated on the internet. When deliverymen bring cardboard boxes to his doorstep, Zhang soon builds them into interactive toys for his daughter Nini, who is 5.
The 32-year-old father from Zhengzhou, Henan Province, has made more than 120 toys from waste cardboard in the past three years. His toy-making videos have gone viral (走红) on the internet and many netizens comment that it shows an environment-friendly way to spend quality time with children.
In Zhang’s eyes, everything can have a hard cardboard copy. Even the classic video games, such as Need for Speed, Tetris and Submarine Game Challenge, can be played in the actual world.
“These are toys or games that people born after 1980 had in childhood that are rarely seen today. I want my daughter to see what her father played with as a boy, building a kind of connection between the two generations,” Zhang says.
The homemade toy, cardboard version of Need for Speed, has got more than 1.6 million likes on short video platform Douyin. The screen is made of paper with three lanes (车道) with cars and a magnet (磁铁) underneath. In the video, Nini uses a steering wheel to control a metal car to overtake painted cars in its lane with her father rolling the paper.
He also built a marble obstacle course, a pool table, a robot WALL-E and many others. His most liked video, a toy bank in the shape of a house, has gained more than 2.7 million likes.
“As people are becoming more addicted to digital devices, there are harmful effects brought by technology, like difficulty in concentration,” Zhang says, adding that parents should control their children’s screen time.

Looking for a place to take a rest，sip a cup of coffee and have a furry companion Welcome to animal-themed cafes.
In recent years，the combination of pets and catering has become incredibly popular in many cities throughout China. While many cafes started out offering the company of cats and dogs，others are expanding their range. Some cafes include animals like squirrels，raccoons and even capybaras.
In reviews，internet users have commented that their main reason for visiting these businesses is to interact closely with animals they have only seen from afar.
“The customers love animals. They are curious about these pets and want to raise one at home，but circumstances don’t allow it，”said pet cafe owner Tian Rui，Liu Jing，a Beijing resident who works in finance，loves pigs，but her parents would not endorse her getting one as a pet. The 24-year-old had to admire the animals through videos and images. But now，she can have close contact with an adorable pig every weekend in a pet cafe.
Also，these pet cafes serve as a shelter for those who find comfort in being around animals. “In this place，you can get close to the cute little ones in a very comfortable way without having to worry about safety and hygiene(卫生)—overall，it is an extremely comfortable experience，”said Zhao Ming from Tianjin，30，a frequent pet cafe visitor.
Animal lovers also expect the pet cafes to change people’s attitudes toward pets. Animals like ducks，pigs and sheep have been served as food for many years. People hardly see them as pets. But the pet cafes help shift their attitude from seeing them as playthings to regarding them as family members or close friends.
“Whether at home or in stores，these little animals are there for companionship and they bring warmth to our hearts. They care and understand just like family members. They give us much more than the love we give to them，”Zhao said.
8．Why do people visit pet cafes
A．To pursue inner peace. B．To appreciate animal images.
C．To experience a clean environment. D．To have close contact with animals.
9．What does the underlined word “endorse” in Paragraph 4 mean

10．We can conclude from Paragraph 6 that pet cafes may__________.
A．change our views of animals B．teach us how to look after pets better
C．show us the importance of having pets D．remind us to value our family and friends
11．Which of the following can be the best title for the text
A．Cafes Enjoy Great Popularity B．Ideal Shelters for Lovely Animals
C．Animals Turn into Companions D．Animal Lovers from Different Cities

Fabien Cousteau is the grandson of Jacques Cousteau, an ocean scientist who brought the wonders of the sea to the attention of people around the world. Jacques Cousteau helped invent the Aqua-Lung(水肺) , now used by divers everywhere. Fabien Cousteau has followed a similar path,exploring the sea as a scientist and working to protect the oceans.
Oceans cover more than 70% of our planet. NOAA says we have created maps of less than 20% of the world's oceans, and only 5% have been explored. Space seems to have gotten much more attention , even though it's farther away. The International Space Station( ISS) has been around for more than 20 years , and more people have gone to the moon than have gone to the deepest point in the ocean.
"The ocean is our life support system. It is the very reason why we exist in the first place,'Fabien says.
But though the ocean is all around us , studying it is a challenge. Divers are limited in how far down they can go and how long they can stay below. Returning to the surface can be dangerous.Fabien has announced a plan to build a large research station under the ocean named Proteus,which is designed to deal with many of those problems. The power for the station is expected to come from solar energy and the movement of the ocean. Fabien says that the research base won't justbe used to study and help protect the sea, but also to research new ways of creating energy , and perhaps even searching for new medicines. Proteus is also expected to have the first under water greenhouse in the world , so that the lab will be able to grow some of its own food.
Like the ISS , Proteus is designed so that it can grow in the future , as scientists decide to add new sections or equipment to the station. Fabien hopes to have the lab completed and ready to use by 2023.
12. What do we know about Fabien Cousteau
A. He's doing what Jacques once did. B. He took part in the work in the ISS.
C. He built an undersea laboratory. D. He helped invent the Aqua-Lung.
13. Why does the author mention the statistics in paragraph 2
A. To show the world's oceans are vast. B. To prove oceans and space are vital.
C. To advise people to protect oceans. D. To tell why oceans need exploring.
14. Which of the following can best describe Proteus
A. Environment-friendly. B. Water-saving. C. Expensive. D. Risky.
15. What is the best title for the text
A. Fabien's Ocean Research Achievements
B. Proteus:Research Lab Growing Gradually
C. Proteus : Plan for Underwater Version of ISS
D. Fabien's Dream about Promoting his Station

Music gets you to ignore the passing of time. Scientists have shown repeatedly that people judge a period of waiting shorter when music is playing. Businessmen use that to their advantage, playing music so you stay longer and spend more.
