第一节（共15小题；每小题2.5分，满分22.5分）
A
Paper cutting is one of China's most popular folk arts. Archaeological (考古学上的) finds show that the tradition started in the 6th century; it is even supposed that the beginning of paper cutting is even a few centuries earlier.
Paper cuts have special importance at festivals and on holidays .To get rid of (摆脱) the old and bring good luck, people put up paper cuts on the windows on the Eve of the Spring Festival.
Paper cuts are not produced by machine, but by hand. They are done all over China, but are different in the method in different areas. There are two methods of making paper cuts — by using scissors (剪刀) or knives. As the name suggests, scissors cuttings are made with scissors. Several pieces of paper (up to eight pieces) are placed together. The patterns are then cut with pointed scissors. Knife cuttings are made by putting several pieces of paper on a table. Following a pattern, the artist cuts the patterns into the paper with a knife.
In the past, paper cuts are usually made only by women and girls. They use scissors and paper to cut all kinds of pictures such as apple trees, peach blossoms, mice, fighting roosters (公鸡) and rabbits eating carrots.
This used to be one of the skills that every girl was to master. Professional paper cutting artists are, on the other hand, almost always men who can make a living by working together in workshops.
21．How long has paper cutting lasted at least
A．About 600 years.
B．About 1,500 years.
C．About 2,000 years.
D．About 2,700 years.
22．People put up paper cuts on the windows in order to ________.
A．make them look more beautiful
B．show others their excellent skills
C．bring them good luck in the new year
D．sell them on the Eve of the Spring Festival
23．What does the third paragraph mainly tell us
A．Two kinds of paper cuts.
B．Paper cuts are made by hand.
C．Paper cuts are made by machine.
D．The process of making paper cuts.
B
Two-thirds of the world’s major rivers have now been disrupted(中断) with more than 50,000 dams in an attempt to store water and provide power. In the US, there are more than 85,000 dams, disrupting large and small rivers and in most cases transforming natural flow. The most famous of these, the Hoover Dam constructed in the 1930’s, is mainly responsible for the fact that the Colorado River no longer reaches the ocean.
Dams, besides all their attractive benefits, also have negative impacts. Creating a reservoir(水库) means a large area must be munities may lose their land houses and cultural relies(遗址). Down stream of a dam, the flow may be reduced so that farmers cannot irrigate their fields.
Environmentally, the new reservoir can be a paradise for wildlife especially birds. However, it can cause greenhouse gas emissions(排放) and poison the water for fish. Also, the dramatic rise and fall of water levels during dam releases is too extreme for plants and animals to cope with, resulting in dead zones around the shores of reservoirs. Fish that lay their eggs in the shallows, for example, may find a few hours later that those sites are high and dry.
Dams don't just block water flow. The flow may be reduced so that farmers will have great trouble getting water for their fields. They also prevent fish migrations and are a barrier to sediment(沉淀物) flows. Instead of rushing downriver, sediments get backed up against the dam wall, which causes the reservoir level to increase over time. However, sediments which are rich in nutrients have become a problem. The fertility of the entire system can be influenced be influenced by soils lost during seasonal rains, not being replaced.
Perhaps the biggest problem can be seen in deltas(三角洲), often host to large cities, which are sinking into the oceans. Groundwater is being extracted to feed the city, causing the urban weight to sink and sediments washed away by the ocean are no longer being replaced. The result is that sea level rises in cities from Shanghai to Alexandria.
24.What effects does creating a reservoir have on people's life
a. People will see fewer birds near the rivers.
b. Farmers below the dam may have less water to irrigate their fields.
c. Visitors can't see some cultural relics anymore.
d. More conflicts and wars over water will break out.
e. All kinds of fish will become extinct in the future.
A. b c B .c e C .b e D. a d
25.With many dams built across rivers, fish will _______.
A. find more places to lay their eggs
B. face a more dangerous living habitat
C. feed on more sediments rich in nutrients
D. find it easier to deal with the rise of water
26.How can dams influence the cities like Shanghai
A. The rainy season will last longer
B. Rich soils will be washed away
C. Their entire system will be influenced
D. They will lie below sea level in the future
27.What does the text mainly talk about
A. Economic gain of dams B. Cultural loss of dams
C. Environmental loss of dams D. Environmental benefits of dams
C
When the explorers first set foot upon the continent of North America, the skies and lands were alive with an astonishing variety of wildlife. Native Americans have taken care of these precious natural resourses wisely. Unfortunately, it took the explorers and the settlers who followed only a few decades to decimate a large part of these resources. Millions of waterfowl（水禽）were killed at the hands of market hunters and a handful of overly ambitious sportsmen. Millions of acres of wetlands were dried to feed and house the ever-increasing populations, greatly reducing waterfowl habitat（栖息地）.
In 1934, with the passage of the Migratory Bird Hunting Stamp Act (Act), an increasingly concerned nation took firm action to stop the destruction of migratory（迁徙的）waterfowl and the wetlands so vital to their survival. Under this Act, all waterfowl hunters 16 years of age and over must annually purchase and carry a Federal Duck Stamp. The very first Federal Duck Stamp was designed by J.N. "Ding" Darling, a political cartoonist from Des Moines, lowa , who at that time was appointed by President Franklin Roosevelt as Director of the Bureau of Biological Survey. Hunters willingly pay the stamp price to ensure the survival of our natural resources.
About 98 cents of every duck stamp dollar goes directly into the Migratory Bird Conservation Fund to purchase wetlands and wildlife habitat for inclusion into the National Wildlife Refuge System—a fact that ensures this land will be protected and available for all generations to come. Since 1934, better than half a billion dollars has gone into that Fund to purchase more than 5 million acres of habitat. Little wonder the Federal Duck Stamp Program has been called one of the most successful conservation programs ever initiated.
28. What was a cause of the waterfowl population decline in North America
A .Loss of wetlands. B. Popularity of water sports.
C. Pollution of rivers. D. Arrival of other wild animals.
29. What does the underlined word "decimate" mean in the first paragraph
A. Acquire. B. Export. C. Destroy. D. Distribute.
30. What is a direct result of the Act passed in 1934
A. The stamp price has gone down.
B. The migratory birds have flown away.
C .The hunters have stopped hunting.
D. The government has collected money.
31. Which of the following is a suitable title for the text
A. The Federal Duck Stamp Story
B. The National Wildlife Refuge System
C. The Benefits of Saving Waterfowl
D. The History of Migratory Bird Hunting
D

【解析】这是一篇说明文。人们常常想简化生活。复杂的生活充满了日程表、会议、财产等等，这是一个很大的压力。通常，简单的生活意味着更少的焦虑、压力和担心。文章主要就如何简化生活提出了一些方法。
36．根据上文“People often want to simplify their lives. It is a lot of stress to have a complicated life, full of schedules, meetings, possessions, and so forth. Usually, a simpler life translates to less anxiety, stress and worry.(人们常常想简化生活。复杂的生活充满了日程表、会议、财产等等，这是一个很大的压力。通常，简单的生活意味着更少的焦虑、压力和担心)”以及后文“Follow the step-by-step process below to bare down your lifestyle piece by piece.(按照下面的步骤一步一步地改变你的生活方式)”可知，上文提到了简化生活的问题，后文则提到了简化生活的方式，可推知本句承上启下，引出如何简化生活的问题。故C选项“那么，我们如何简化我们的生活？”符合语境，故选C。
37．根据上文“First, get rid of all the possessions you haven't used in the last year. If you haven't put a thing to use in one year, it is probably not worth keeping.(首先，处理掉你在过去的一年里没有使用过的所有物品。如果一件东西一年都没用过，那它可能就不值得保存了)”以及后文“Put anything you haven't used in one year in that bag.(把你一年没用过的东西都放进那个袋子里)”可知，上文提到处理掉很久没有使用过的物品，后文提到放到袋子里，可知本句是在说明拿袋子，G选项中a big garbage bag对应后文中that bag。故G选项“拿一个大垃圾袋，在你的生活空间周围走动”符合语境，故选G。
38．根据上文“Next, manage your social media and electronics usage. We usually spend more time on our devices than we imagine. These days, people can spend the majority of their days on social media and electronic devices. These all-in-one devices are great tools.(接下来，管理你的社交媒体和电子产品的使用。我们花在设备上的时间通常比我们想象的要多。如今，人们可以把大部分时间花在社交媒体和电子设备上。这些多功能一体的设备是伟大的工具)”可知，上文提到花费太多时间在电子设备上，本句为本段最后一句，与上文构成转折，指出这些设备不应该是生活的主要焦点。F选项中they指代上文中These all-in-one devices。故F选项“但是它们不应该成为我们生活的主要焦点”符合语境，故选F。
39．根据上文“On a deeper level, we can simplify our thinking. Most of our thinking is not necessary.(在更深层次上，我们可以简化我们的思考。我们的大部分想法都是不必要的)”以及后文“If you do not want to go that far, try to ignore the thoughts that are not related to the present. A continuous stream of thoughts ·is not necessary. Sure, some planning should be done for the future, but there is no need to overthink.(如果你不想走那么远，试着忽略那些与现在无关的想法。连续不断的思想是没有必要的。当然，应该为未来做一些计划，但没有必要过度考虑)”可知，上文提到我们大部分想法不必要，后文则说忽略那些与现在无关的想法，可知本句承接上文进一步说明：没有什么想法是重要的。故A选项“没有什么想法是重要的”符合语境，故选A。
40．设空处为本段主旨句。根据后文“We can get rid of possession's that are non-essential, manage our social media and electronics usage, and also clean up our thinking so that we are more in the present and do not engage in unnecessary worry, or anxiety. All these things take energy and time, of which we have only have a limited amount.(我们可以摆脱那些不必要的东西，管理我们的社交媒体和电子产品的使用，也可以清理我们的思维，这样我们就能更多地活在当下，而不会陷入不必要的担心或焦虑。所有这些事情都需要精力和时间，而我们只有有限的精力和时间)”可知，本段进一步总结上文简化生活的方法，指出简化生活是一项复杂的任务。故E选项“简化我们的生活是一项复杂的任务”符合语境，故选E。

A
Paper cutting is one of China's most popular folk arts. Archaeological (考古学上的) finds show that the tradition started in the 6th century; it is even supposed that the beginning of paper cutting is even a few centuries earlier.
Paper cuts have special importance at festivals and on holidays .To get rid of (摆脱) the old and bring good luck, people put up paper cuts on the windows on the Eve of the Spring Festival.
Paper cuts are not produced by machine, but by hand. They are done all over China, but are different in the method in different areas. There are two methods of making paper cuts — by using scissors (剪刀) or knives. As the name suggests, scissors cuttings are made with scissors. Several pieces of paper (up to eight pieces) are placed together. The patterns are then cut with pointed scissors. Knife cuttings are made by putting several pieces of paper on a table. Following a pattern, the artist cuts the patterns into the paper with a knife.
In the past, paper cuts are usually made only by women and girls. They use scissors and paper to cut all kinds of pictures such as apple trees, peach blossoms, mice, fighting roosters (公鸡) and rabbits eating carrots.
This used to be one of the skills that every girl was to master. Professional paper cutting artists are, on the other hand, almost always men who can make a living by working together in workshops.
21．How long has paper cutting lasted at least
A．About 600 years.
B．About 1,500 years.
C．About 2,000 years.
D．About 2,700 years.
22．People put up paper cuts on the windows in order to ________.
A．make them look more beautiful
B．show others their excellent skills
C．bring them good luck in the new year
D．sell them on the Eve of the Spring Festival
23．What does the third paragraph mainly tell us
A．Two kinds of paper cuts.
B．Paper cuts are made by hand.
C．Paper cuts are made by machine.
D．The process of making paper cuts.

Two-thirds of the world’s major rivers have now been disrupted(中断) with more than 50,000 dams in an attempt to store water and provide power. In the US, there are more than 85,000 dams, disrupting large and small rivers and in most cases transforming natural flow. The most famous of these, the Hoover Dam constructed in the 1930’s, is mainly responsible for the fact that the Colorado River no longer reaches the ocean.
Dams, besides all their attractive benefits, also have negative impacts. Creating a reservoir(水库) means a large area must be munities may lose their land houses and cultural relies(遗址). Down stream of a dam, the flow may be reduced so that farmers cannot irrigate their fields.
Environmentally, the new reservoir can be a paradise for wildlife especially birds. However, it can cause greenhouse gas emissions(排放) and poison the water for fish. Also, the dramatic rise and fall of water levels during dam releases is too extreme for plants and animals to cope with, resulting in dead zones around the shores of reservoirs. Fish that lay their eggs in the shallows, for example, may find a few hours later that those sites are high and dry.
Dams don't just block water flow. The flow may be reduced so that farmers will have great trouble getting water for their fields. They also prevent fish migrations and are a barrier to sediment(沉淀物) flows. Instead of rushing downriver, sediments get backed up against the dam wall, which causes the reservoir level to increase over time. However, sediments which are rich in nutrients have become a problem. The fertility of the entire system can be influenced be influenced by soils lost during seasonal rains, not being replaced.
Perhaps the biggest problem can be seen in deltas(三角洲), often host to large cities, which are sinking into the oceans. Groundwater is being extracted to feed the city, causing the urban weight to sink and sediments washed away by the ocean are no longer being replaced. The result is that sea level rises in cities from Shanghai to Alexandria.
24.What effects does creating a reservoir have on people's life
a. People will see fewer birds near the rivers.
b. Farmers below the dam may have less water to irrigate their fields.
c. Visitors can't see some cultural relics anymore.
d. More conflicts and wars over water will break out.
e. All kinds of fish will become extinct in the future.
A. b c B .c e C .b e D. a d
25.With many dams built across rivers, fish will _______.
A. find more places to lay their eggs
B. face a more dangerous living habitat
C. feed on more sediments rich in nutrients
D. find it easier to deal with the rise of water
26.How can dams influence the cities like Shanghai
A. The rainy season will last longer
B. Rich soils will be washed away
C. Their entire system will be influenced
D. They will lie below sea level in the future
27.What does the text mainly talk about
A. Economic gain of dams B. Cultural loss of dams
C. Environmental loss of dams D. Environmental benefits of dams

When the explorers first set foot upon the continent of North America, the skies and lands were alive with an astonishing variety of wildlife. Native Americans have taken care of these precious natural resourses wisely. Unfortunately, it took the explorers and the settlers who followed only a few decades to decimate a large part of these resources. Millions of waterfowl（水禽）were killed at the hands of market hunters and a handful of overly ambitious sportsmen. Millions of acres of wetlands were dried to feed and house the ever-increasing populations, greatly reducing waterfowl habitat（栖息地）.
In 1934, with the passage of the Migratory Bird Hunting Stamp Act (Act), an increasingly concerned nation took firm action to stop the destruction of migratory（迁徙的）waterfowl and the wetlands so vital to their survival. Under this Act, all waterfowl hunters 16 years of age and over must annually purchase and carry a Federal Duck Stamp. The very first Federal Duck Stamp was designed by J.N. "Ding" Darling, a political cartoonist from Des Moines, lowa , who at that time was appointed by President Franklin Roosevelt as Director of the Bureau of Biological Survey. Hunters willingly pay the stamp price to ensure the survival of our natural resources.
About 98 cents of every duck stamp dollar goes directly into the Migratory Bird Conservation Fund to purchase wetlands and wildlife habitat for inclusion into the National Wildlife Refuge System—a fact that ensures this land will be protected and available for all generations to come. Since 1934, better than half a billion dollars has gone into that Fund to purchase more than 5 million acres of habitat. Little wonder the Federal Duck Stamp Program has been called one of the most successful conservation programs ever initiated.
28. What was a cause of the waterfowl population decline in North America
A .Loss of wetlands. B. Popularity of water sports.
C. Pollution of rivers. D. Arrival of other wild animals.
29. What does the underlined word "decimate" mean in the first paragraph
A. Acquire. B. Export. C. Destroy. D. Distribute.
30. What is a direct result of the Act passed in 1934
A. The stamp price has gone down.
B. The migratory birds have flown away.
C .The hunters have stopped hunting.
D. The government has collected money.
31. Which of the following is a suitable title for the text
A. The Federal Duck Stamp Story
B. The National Wildlife Refuge System
C. The Benefits of Saving Waterfowl
D. The History of Migratory Bird Hunting

【解析】这是一篇说明文。人们常常想简化生活。复杂的生活充满了日程表、会议、财产等等，这是一个很大的压力。通常，简单的生活意味着更少的焦虑、压力和担心。文章主要就如何简化生活提出了一些方法。
36．根据上文“People often want to simplify their lives. It is a lot of stress to have a complicated life, full of schedules, meetings, possessions, and so forth. Usually, a simpler life translates to less anxiety, stress and worry.(人们常常想简化生活。复杂的生活充满了日程表、会议、财产等等，这是一个很大的压力。通常，简单的生活意味着更少的焦虑、压力和担心)”以及后文“Follow the step-by-step process below to bare down your lifestyle piece by piece.(按照下面的步骤一步一步地改变你的生活方式)”可知，上文提到了简化生活的问题，后文则提到了简化生活的方式，可推知本句承上启下，引出如何简化生活的问题。故C选项“那么，我们如何简化我们的生活？”符合语境，故选C。
37．根据上文“First, get rid of all the possessions you haven't used in the last year. If you haven't put a thing to use in one year, it is probably not worth keeping.(首先，处理掉你在过去的一年里没有使用过的所有物品。如果一件东西一年都没用过，那它可能就不值得保存了)”以及后文“Put anything you haven't used in one year in that bag.(把你一年没用过的东西都放进那个袋子里)”可知，上文提到处理掉很久没有使用过的物品，后文提到放到袋子里，可知本句是在说明拿袋子，G选项中a big garbage bag对应后文中that bag。故G选项“拿一个大垃圾袋，在你的生活空间周围走动”符合语境，故选G。
38．根据上文“Next, manage your social media and electronics usage. We usually spend more time on our devices than we imagine. These days, people can spend the majority of their days on social media and electronic devices. These all-in-one devices are great tools.(接下来，管理你的社交媒体和电子产品的使用。我们花在设备上的时间通常比我们想象的要多。如今，人们可以把大部分时间花在社交媒体和电子设备上。这些多功能一体的设备是伟大的工具)”可知，上文提到花费太多时间在电子设备上，本句为本段最后一句，与上文构成转折，指出这些设备不应该是生活的主要焦点。F选项中they指代上文中These all-in-one devices。故F选项“但是它们不应该成为我们生活的主要焦点”符合语境，故选F。
39．根据上文“On a deeper level, we can simplify our thinking. Most of our thinking is not necessary.(在更深层次上，我们可以简化我们的思考。我们的大部分想法都是不必要的)”以及后文“If you do not want to go that far, try to ignore the thoughts that are not related to the present. A continuous stream of thoughts ·is not necessary. Sure, some planning should be done for the future, but there is no need to overthink.(如果你不想走那么远，试着忽略那些与现在无关的想法。连续不断的思想是没有必要的。当然，应该为未来做一些计划，但没有必要过度考虑)”可知，上文提到我们大部分想法不必要，后文则说忽略那些与现在无关的想法，可知本句承接上文进一步说明：没有什么想法是重要的。故A选项“没有什么想法是重要的”符合语境，故选A。
40．设空处为本段主旨句。根据后文“We can get rid of possession's that are non-essential, manage our social media and electronics usage, and also clean up our thinking so that we are more in the present and do not engage in unnecessary worry, or anxiety. All these things take energy and time, of which we have only have a limited amount.(我们可以摆脱那些不必要的东西，管理我们的社交媒体和电子产品的使用，也可以清理我们的思维，这样我们就能更多地活在当下，而不会陷入不必要的担心或焦虑。所有这些事情都需要精力和时间，而我们只有有限的精力和时间)”可知，本段进一步总结上文简化生活的方法，指出简化生活是一项复杂的任务。故E选项“简化我们的生活是一项复杂的任务”符合语境，故选E。
