第一节(共4小题;每小题4分,满分16分)
It can be really hard to learn a new language. I had always enjoyed learning languages in school, but only recently did I start learning German. I found that I could understand and learn individual words easily, but when it came to literature, I really struggled. That was when my tutor at university suggested reading some children's books printed in the target language.
At first, I felt a bit silly going on a hunt for a book designed for someone half my age, but then I realised that everyone has to start somewhere. As children, we are given these basic texts to familiarise our brains with certain vocabulary and writing structures, and from there, we can learn and develop. I started with books which are taught to us as children in the UK. I managed to find Oliver Twist by Charles Dickens and James and the Giant Peach by Roald Dahl.
The beauty of reading books that were introduced to you as a child is that you are already familiar with the plot. Therefore you can work out some words with your knowledge of the story. At first, I used to read with the book in one hand and a dictionary in the other, but this did not work well. The method I would recommend is to read a chapter first and at the end of that chapter, highlight the new words and then look up the definitions. If you can wait a bit before using a dictionary, you may be surprised what you can understand merely from the context. Additionally, a lot of children's books have pictures which may give you a clue as to what or to whom the passage is referring.
If you can find a translation of the books you have read as a child, I would strongly advise reading those if you are a complete beginner. However, if you feel a bit more confident reading in English, I would personally recommend the series of ‘Harry Potter’ books by J. K. Rowling or any of the Roald Dahl children's books.

Happiness Is a Journey
We always believe life will be better after we get married, have a baby, then another. Then we think the kids aren’t 10 enough and we’ll be more 11 when they are. After that we think we have teenagers to deal with. We will 12 be happy when they are out of that stage.
We always tell ourselves our life will be perfect when we get a nice car, and are 13 to go on a nice vacation when we retire. The 14 is that there’s no better time than right now. If not now, 15 Our life will 16 be filled with challenges. It’s best to 17

But there were always some obstacles in the way, something to be got through first, some unfinished business, time still to be served, a debt to be 19 . Then life would begin. At last it was 20 to me that these difficulties were my life.” This view has helped me to see that there is no way to happiness. Happiness is the way. So 21 every moment that you have.
And 22 time waits for no one. So 23 waiting until you finish school, until you get married, until you have kids, until you retire, until you 24 a new car, and until spring.
Happiness is a(n) 25 , not a destination. So, work like you don’t need 26 , love like you’ve never been 27 , and dance like no one’s 28 .
Try to do what you like and enjoy what you can enjoy at present or you will feel 29
when you are too old to do anything.

14. A. willing B. sure C. able D. ready
15. A. result B. truth C. answer D. end
16. A. how B. where C. what D. when
17. A. seldom B. sometimes C. never D. always
18. A. admit B. pass C. explain D. introduce
19. A. finish B. stop C. begin D.change 20. A. paid B. borrowed C. returned D. lent
21. A. surprising B. clear C. doubtful D.puzzling
22. A. save B. keep C. value D. miss

【答案】
1. D 2. B 3. A 4. A
【解析】
这是一篇说明文。文章提供学习一门新语言的几点建议。
【1题详解】
细节理解题。由第二段I found that I could understand and learn individual words easily, but when it came to literature, I really struggled.可知我发现我可以很容易的理解和学习单个的单词,但是涉及到文学作品时我就很为难。所以让作者感到学德语难是因为作者不能流利地读书。故选D。
【2题详解】
细节理解题。由第二段At first, I felt a bit silly going on a hunt for a book designed for someone half my age可知最初,我觉得读一本为只有我年龄一半的人设计的书有点愚蠢。所以最初,作者认为用目标语言读儿童读物有点傻愚蠢故选B。
【3题详解】
主旨大意题。由第三段Therefore you can work out some words with your knowledge of the story.可知你可以用你对故事的了解弄明白一些单词;由The method I would recommend is to read a chapter first and at the end of that chapter, highlight the new words and then look up the definitions.可知我推荐的方法是先读一章,在章节末将生词标出来再查定义。这两处都是关于在读书的时候怎么处理新单词的,因此第三自然段是关于在阅读时怎么处理新单词的。故选A。
【4题详解】
主旨大意题。由最后一段If you can find a translation of the books you have read as a child, I would strongly advise reading those if you are a complete beginner. However, if you feel a bit more confident reading in English, I would personally recommend the series of ‘Harry Potter’ books by J. K. Rowling or any of the Roald Dahl children's books.可知如果你找到了一本孩子时期读的书的翻译本,而你是初学者,我强烈建议你读一读。但是,如果你对英语有点信心,我个人建议哈利波特系列或者Roald dahl 儿童读物。这些都是关于不同语言水平的人怎样学习语言的,因此作者写此文章的目的是就怎么学习新语言提出自己的建议。故选A。
【答案】5. G 6. C 7. D 8. E 9. A
【解析】这是一篇议论文,如何为考试做准备?不劳无获,成功没有捷径,只有努力。同时作者给出了几条可行的建议。
5.上文提示“一些学生学习很好,但仍然可能很害怕考试,由于这个原因,他们会感到沮丧,无法获得分数。”承接上文,G项So leave all your fears and free your mind before starting the study.(所以在开始学习之前,先放下所有的恐惧,释放你的思想。)切题。该项中的so与上文构成因果关系,故选G。
6.上文提示“在开始学习前准备一个时间表。”承接上文,C项This should include all the subjects.(这应该包括所有的科目。)切题。该项中的This指上文“时间表”,故选C。
7.上文提示“学习氛围起着非常重要的作用。”再根据下文提示“所以选择一个你觉得舒服的地方。”承接上下文,D项Can anyone study well while others around are watching TV (当周围的人都在看电视的时候,还有人能好好学习吗 )故选D。
8.上文提示“为了使审查更容易,说明应简明扼要。” 下文提示“但不要试图涵盖所有内容。”承接上下文,E项 A good note shall include the most important points.(一个好的注释应该包括最重要的要点。)切题。故选E。
9.本空是一个小标题,应该用短小精悍的祈使句,只有A项符合题意。根据下文提示“考试前一晚你必须睡个好觉,至少6小时,不超过8小时。”可知,A项Sleep well and eat well.(睡得好,吃得好。)切题。故选A。
【答案】10.D11.B12.A13.C14.B15.D16.D17.A18.C19.A20.B21.C22.C23.B24.D25.A26.B27.A28.D29.C

10.考查形容词词义辨析。句意:之后我们会觉得孩子还不够大,等他们大点我们就幸福了。A. strong强壮的;B. clever聪明的;C. rich富裕的;D. old大的,年老的。根据上文中提到的结婚,生子,推出本句孩子不够大,符合逻辑。故选D项。

18.考查动词词义辨析。句意:过去很长一段时间我都认为真正的生活马上就要开始了。A. finish完成;B. stop;停止; C. begin开始;D. change改变。根据第10空后面的“Then life would begin”可推出此处是类似句型,故用begin。故选C项。

【答案】es 31. to read 32. Using 33. surprisingly 34. its 35. is designed 36. where 37. relaxed 38. at 39. creators
【解析】这是一篇说明文。文章介绍第一款能理解人类情感的机器人,文章进一步介绍了这款机器人的外形、识别功能等。
36.考查倒装。句意:Pepper来了,这可能会改变这一切。这一句是Here引导的倒装句:Here + come (或be等) + 主语,主语“Pepper”是单数,谓语动词come用单数第三人称,且句子为一般现在时。故填comes。
37.考查非谓语动词。句意:Pepper是第一个读懂人类情感的机器人。名词前面有序数词/形容词最高级修饰,该非谓语动词一般使用不定式结构作后置定语,这句名词“robot”前有序数词“the first”修饰,所以read用不定式结构,故填to read。
38.考查非谓语动词。句意:利用它的情感识别功能,Pepper可以开玩笑,跳舞,它甚至可以给周围的人唱歌。句子主干“Pepper can make jokes”和动词“use”之间有逗号没有连词,可知“use”和Pepper是逻辑主谓关系,表主动用现在分词形式。故用Using。
39.考查副词。句意:Pepper利用它的情感识别功能,可以开玩笑,跳舞,它甚至可以给周围的人唱歌。这里用副词修饰句子,“surprisingly”(令人吃惊地)符合句意,故填surprisingly。
40.考查代词。句意:它有四英尺高,胸部有一台平板电脑。分析句子可知,句子的主语“It”指代机器人Pepper,空格后 “chest”(胸部)是名词,这里指机器人的胸部,所以用形容词物主代词来修饰,故填its。
41.考查被动语态。句意:Pepper被设计成一个家庭机器人,但它不像漫画中的家庭机器人。根据文章可知Pepper是机器人,它和动词“design”(设计)是被动关系,根据but引导的从句时态可知,用一般现在时,故填is designed。
42.考查定语从句。句意:Pepper是在家里或商店里使用的,在那里我们享受快乐和娱乐。分析句子可知,定语从句空格处缺少状语,先行词是“ home or stores”在后面的定语从句中作地点状语,故填where。
43.考查形容词。句意:它可以鼓励我们,让我们开怀大笑,感到放松。这句中的“feel”(感觉)是感官动词,后面连接形容词,形容词“relexed”(感到放松的)符合句意,故填relaxed。
44.考查介词。句意:几年前,Pepper开始以2000美元价格出售。固定搭配“at a price of”(以…的价格)符合句意,故填at。
45.考查名词。句意:在出售前,创造者希望他们储存更多的信息,以便与人类更好地相处。分析句子可知,句子中的“them”指代那些机器人,可以判断空格处主语应该指人,“creators”(创造者)符合句意,故填creators。
40.【答案】Dear Peter,
How is everything going recently I am writing to express my thanks to you for your generous help.
Without your encouragement and valuable advice, I couldn’t have made so much progress in English. And now I want to read some English novels in my spare time to improve my English reading skills. Would you like to recommend some excellent English novels to me
You have told me that you are very interested in Chinese culture. I sincerely hope that you can come to visit China and I will show you around some places of interest.
Best wishes to you!
【解析】
这是一篇提纲作文。题干中可以总结出本文的三个要点:①感谢Peter对你的帮助②请他帮忙推荐几本英文小说③邀请他来中国参观。同学们写作时稍加发挥即可。
第一步:审题:确定时态和人称。由于是现在写信向Peter表达感谢并希望他帮忙推荐几本英文小说。所以时态应以一般现在时为主,人称以第一人称为主。
第二步:列提纲 (重点词组)
express my thanks to…(向……表达感谢);generous help(慷慨大方的帮助); valuable advice(宝贵的意见);made progress in(在……取得进步);in my spare time(在业余时间);recommend…to…(推荐……给……);show you around some places of interest(带你游览一些名胜古迹)等。
第三步:遣词造句:同学们在写作时不能逐句翻译,可以适当增加细节,以使行文连贯,同时要点表述要完整,文章要通顺,准确使用时态和语态。
第四步:连句成文:写作时要适当使用连词、过渡词和插入语,使文章浑然一体。同时恰当而合理地使用一些高级词汇和句型,如定语从句等,以提高文章档次。
范文内容完整,要点全面,语言规范,语篇连贯,词数适当,上下文意思连贯,符合逻辑关系。作者在范文中使用了较多句式,如:第二段第一句使用了without引导的虚拟语气;第二段第二句使用了不定式作目的状语;第三段第一句和第二句都使用了that引导的宾语从句。此外本文还使用了一些高级词汇,如express my thanks to you for your generous help; made so much progress in English;recommend some excellent English novels to me;are very interested in Chinese culture;show you around some places of interest等。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。另外,文章思路清晰、层次分明,上下句转换自然,为文章增色添彩。
