MONTREAL (Reuters) – Crossing the US-Canada border（边界）to go to church on a Sunday cost a US citizen ＄10,000 for breaking Washington’s strict new security（安全）rules.
The expensive trip to church was a surprise for Richard Albert, who lives right on the Canadian border. Like the other half-dozen people of Township 15, crossing the border is a daily occurrence for Albert. The nearby Quebec village of St. Pamphile is where they shop, eat and go to church.
There are many such situations in these areas along the largely unguarded 5,530-mile border between Canada and the US-which in some cases actually runs down the middle of streets or through buildings.
As a result, Albert says he did not expect any problems three weeks ago when he returned home to the US after attending church in Canada, as usual. The US customs（海关）station in this are is closed on Sundays, so be just drove around the locked gate, as he had done every weekend since the gate appeared last May, following a tightening of border security. Two days later. Albert was told to go to the customs office, where an officer told him be had been caught on camera crossing the border illegally（非法）.
Ottawa has given out special passes to some 300 US citizens in that area so they can enter the country when Canadian customs stations are closed, but the US stopped a similar program last May. That forces the people to a 200-miledetour along hilly roads to get home through another border checkpoint.
Albert has requested that the customs office change their decisions on the fine, but he has not attended a Sunday church since. “I feel like I’m living in a prison,” he said.
4. We learn from the text that Richard Albert is .
A. an American living in Township 15
B. a Canadian living in a Quebec village
C. a Canadian working in a customs station
D. an American working in a Canadian church
5. Albert was fined because he .
A. failed to obey traffic rules B. broke the American security rules
C. worked in St. Pamphile without a pass D. damaged the gate of the customs office
6. The underlined word “detour” in paragraph 5 means .
A. a drive through the town B. a race across the fields
C. a roundabout way of travelling D. a journey in the mountain area
7. What wd be the best title for the text
A. A Cross-country Trip B. A Special Border Pass
C. An Unguarded Border D. An Expensive Church Visit
【答案】4. A 5. B 6. C 7. D
【解析】
【分析】本篇文章属于一篇新闻报道。文章主要讲了由于美加边境重新整改和管理，一些住在边境周边的居民出现了一些不适应的情况，纪实了当地的一些困窘情况。
【4题详解】
细节理解题。根据The expensive trip to church was a surprise for Richard Albert, who lives right on the Canadian border. Like the other half-dozen people of Township 15, crossing the border is a daily occurrence for Albert. （昂贵的教堂之旅对住在加拿大边境的理查德·艾伯特来说是一个惊喜。和镇上其他住在 Township 15的人一样，穿越边境对艾伯特来说是家常便饭。）可知理查德·艾伯特是一名居住Township 15,的美国人。故选A项。
【5题详解】
细节理解题。根据原文的“….cost a US citizen ＄10,000 for breaking Washington’s strict new security rules”由于违反了华盛顿政府新颁布严格的边境安全法而罚款1千美元”。故选择B项。
【6题详解】
词句猜测题。根据原文的but the US stopped a similar program last May.但美国去年5月停止了一项类似的计划That forces the people to a 200-mile detour along hilly roads to get home through another border checkpoint.在这段话里，根据后面的through another border checkpoint（通过另一个边境安检点），由此判断出他们比原来的路线多走了200英里。所以划线词的意思是“迂回的旅行方式” 故选B项。
【7题详解】
主旨大意题。文章开头就说了由于新边境安全法的出台，导致近期罚款数目增长，而这些群体并非是越境者，而是由于他们要去做礼拜而不得不违背法律。所以D项可以反映出一个诙谐幽默的文章主旨。故短文的最佳标题为“昂贵的做礼拜”。故选D项。
C
Is there anything more important than health I don’t think so. “Health is the greatest wealth.” wise people say. You can’t be good at your studies or work well when you are ill.If you have a headache, toothache, backache, earache or bad pain in the stomach, if you complain of a bad cough, if you run a high temperature and have a bad cold, or if you suffer from high or low blood pressure, I think you should go to the doctor. The doctor will examine your throat, feel your pulse, test your blood pressure, take your temperature, sound your heart and lungs, test your eyes, check your teeth or have your chest X- rayed. After that he will advise some treatment, or some medicine. The only thing you have to do is to follow his advice.Speaking about doctor’s advice, I can’t help telling you a funny story. An old gentleman came to see the doctor. The man was very ill. He told the doctor about his weakness, memory loss and serious problems with his heart and lungs. The doctor examined him and said there was no medicine for his disease. He told his patient to go to a quiet place for a month and have a good rest. He also advised him to eat a lot of meat, drink two glasses of red wine every day and take long walks. In other words, the doctor advised him to follow the rule: “Eat at pleasure, drink with measure and enjoy life as it is.” The doctor also said that if the man wanted to be well again, he shouldn’t smoke more than one cigarette a day. A month later the gentleman came into the doctor’s office. He looked cheerful and happy. He thanked the doctor and said that he had never felt a healthier man.“ But you know, doctor,” he said, “it’s not easy to begin smoking at my age.”
8. The writer thinks that_____.
A. health is more important than wealth
B. work is as important as studies
C. medicine is more important than pleasure
D. nothing is more important than money
9. The doctor usually tells his patient what to do______.
A. without examining the patient
B. after he has examined the patient
C. if the patient doesn’t take medicine
D. unless the patient feels pain
10. From the last sentence of the passage, we learn the man_______ before the doctor told himnot to smoke more than one cigarette a day.
A. was a heavy smoker B. didn’t smoke so much
C. didn’t smoke D. began to learn to smoke
11. Which of the following is NOT true
A. The doctor usually tests his/her blood pressure when a person is ill.
B. The man told the doctor he couldn’t remember things.
C. The man thanked the doctor.
D. The man didn’t follow the doctor’s advice.
【答案】8. A 9. B 10. C 11. D
【解析】
【分析】本文是一篇记叙文。文章讲述健康是最大的财富。有病看病、谨遵医嘱有时也会令人捧腹。
【8题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段“Is there anything more important than health I don’t think so. “Health is the greatest wealth.” wise people say.（有什么比健康更重要吗 我不这么想。健康是最大的财富。智者说。）”可推知作者认为健康重于财富。故选A。
【9题详解】
细节理解题。 根据第一段“After that he will advise some treatment, or some medicine. The only thing you have to do is to follow his advice.（之后，他会建议一些治疗，或一些药物。你唯一要做的就是听从他的建议）”可知医生常常是给病人检查后告诉病人去做什么。故选B。
【10题详解】
推理判断题。文章最后一句“it’s not easy to begin smoking at my age.（在我这样的年纪开始吸烟不容易。）” 再结合上文医生建议“...he shouldn’t smoke more than one cigarette a day.（他每天吸烟不应该超过一支）”，可推知病人误解了医生的原意而开始吸烟。故选C。
【11题详解】
细节理解题。 A、B、C文章均有提及。而根据文章中“it’s not easy to begin smoking at my age.（在我这样的年纪开始吸烟不容易。）” 再结合上文医生建议“...he shouldn’t smoke more than one cigarette a day.（他每天吸烟不应该超过一支）可知不是病人没有听从医生的建议，而是医生未了解病人的情况，其建议有歧义导致病人误解其原意。D选项不符合文章意思，故选D。
D
Is running a marathon (马拉松) under two hours possible Will a human ever be able to run that fast Now, the world record for the 42.195km (26.219 miles) distance is held by the Kenyan runner Eliud Kipchoge. His time of 2:01:39 hours was achieved at the Berlin Marathon of 2018.
But studies published in the past have come to the conclusion that running a marathon under 2 hours can be done. They even see a time of around 1:57 as the fastest a human can ever run. However, we may have to wait longer for this to happen.
To achieve an under two-hour marathon, an athlete would have to have the perfect body size and weight, the right running plans and of course, the right nutrition (营养). Today’s perfect runners come from Kenya and Ethiopia, countries that have dominated (占优势) long distance races for years. East African athletes have long legs and lungs that can take in lots of oxygen (氧). Training at high altitudes (海拔) gives them a strong heart. Ideal weather conditions with cool temperatures and no wind will also be needed to attempt such a mark. An extremely fast marathon would only be possible on flat city courses, like Berlin or London.
Since the beginning of the modern Olympic Games in 1896, athletes have tried to run long distance races as fast as possible. In 1900, the marathon world record was at around 3 hours. In the following 30 years, men were able to reach a mark of 2:30. But in the last 15 years, the world record has improved by only 3 minutes.
On the other side, some experts think that such fast performances will only be possible with the help of some medicine.
12. Why is the world record mentioned in Paragraph 1
A. To show a human can run very fast.
B. To prove Eliud Kipchoge is the best.
C. To introduce the greatest success in the world.
D. To show an under two hour marathon hasn’t been achieved yet.
13. Why is it difficult to see a time of around 1:57
A. It requires too many things to fit together.
B. It isn’t easy to find right running plans.
C. Training a perfect runner takes a long time.
D. Kenyan and Ethiopian runners control marathons.
14. Which of the following may be important for an under two-hour marathon
A. High altitudes. B. Lots of oxygen.
C. A perfect environment. D. Tall and strong runners.
15. What can we learn from Paragraph 4
A. Men will run faster and faster.
B. Men made the greatest progress in 1930.
C. Achieving shorter time became more difficult.
D. It’s impossible to break the marathon world record.
【答案】12. D 13. A 14. C 15. C
【解析】
【分析】本文是一篇议论文。文章通过举例和论证探讨人们能否在两小时以内完成全程马拉松。
【12题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章第二段“But studies published in the past have come to the conclusion that running a marathon under 2 hours can be done.(但过去发表的研究得出的结论是，2小时以内的马拉松是可以完成的)”可知，第一段的作用是引出主题，举 Eliud Kipchogep的例子是为了说明人们还没有实现在两小时内跑完马拉松。故选D。
【13题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章第三段“To achieve an under two-hour marathon, an athlete would have to have the perfect body size and weight, the right running plans and of course, the right nutrition (营养). Today’s perfect runners come from Kenya and Ethiopia, countries that have dominated (占优势) long distance races for years. East African athletes have long legs and lungs that can take in lots of oxygen (氧). Training at high altitudes (海拔) gives them a strong heart. Ideal weather conditions with cool temperatures and no wind will also be needed to attempt such a mark. (要想跑完两小时的马拉松，运动员必须拥有完美的体型和体重，正确的跑步计划，当然，还要有适当的营养。今天的优秀选手来自肯尼亚和埃塞俄比亚，这两个国家多年来一直主宰着长跑比赛。东非运动员有长长的腿和肺，可以吸入大量氧气。在高海拔地区的训练给了他们强壮的心脏。理想的天气条件，低温和无风，也将需要尝试这样的标志)”可知，要实现在两小时内完成马拉松，需要满足运动员自身条件、地理位置、天气状况等各方面因素。由此推知，很难看到大约1:57完成马拉松，因为它需要太多的东西来组合在一起。故选A。
【14题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第三段“Ideal weather conditions with cool temperatures and no wind will also be needed to attempt such a mark.(理想天气条件，低温和无风，也将需要尝试这样的标志)”可知，完美的环境条件对于在两小时内完成马拉松十分重要。故选C。
【15题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章第四段“In 1900, the marathon world record was at around 3 hours. In the following 30 years, men were able to reach a mark of 2:30. But in the last 15 years, the world record has improved by only 3 minutes.(1900年，马拉松世界纪录是3小时左右。在接下来的30年里，男性能够达到2:30。但在过去的15年里，世界纪录只提高了3分钟)”可知，马拉松的记录在一开始提高很快，但到了后来，获得一点突破都需要花费很长的时间。由此推知，马拉松达到更短的时间变得越来越困难。故选C。

50. for
【解析】
【分析】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了中国的传统节日。
【41题详解】
考查时态和语态。句意：每年全世界的中国人都会庆祝中秋节。根据时间状语every year可知，应该用一般现在时。而主语The MidAutumn Festival与celebrate之间是被动关系，所以用被动语态。故填is celebrated。
【42题详解】
考查形容词最高级。句意：据说月亮在这一天是最大最亮的。根据上文的biggest以及and可知，此处也应该用最高级与biggest并列，故填brightest。
【43题详解】
考查冠词。句意：中秋节对家庭来说是一个特别的时刻。此处表示泛指一个特别的时刻，且形容词special发音以辅音音素开头。故填a。
【44题详解】
考查介词。句意：人们吃很多不同种类的月饼，包括水果、坚果、巧克力等。此处用介词短语作定语。including +名词或代词。故填including。
【45题详解】
考查定语从句。句意：元宵节是在正月十五这一天，这标志着中国新年的结束。此处是一个非限制性定语从句，用来指代前面的一个句子，从句中缺少主语，而that不能引导非限制性定语从句，故填which。
【46题详解】
考查时态。句意：关于元宵节是如何开始的有很多故事。元宵节的开始是过去的事情，所以用一般过去时，故填started。
【47题详解】
考查名词的数。句意：现在大部分灯笼有很多的形状。shape是可数名词，前面有many修饰，要用复数形式。故填shapes。
【48题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意：在这一天人们经常吃汤圆，汤圆是在热水里煮熟并端上来的。此处sweet dumplings与serve之间是被动关系，所以用过去分词短语作定语。故填served。
【49题详解】
考查名词。句意：端午节起源于2000多年前，它标志着一年最热的季节的开始。定冠词the后一般加名词，故填beginning。

第四部分 写作（共两节，满分35分）
第一节（共10小题；每小题1分，满分10分）
51. 假定英语课上老师要求同学们交换修改作文，请你修改你同桌写的以下作文。文中共有10处语言错误，每句中最多有两处。错误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（∧），并在其下面写上该加的词。
删除：把多余的词用斜线（＼）划掉。
修改：在错的词下划一横线，并在该词下面写上修改后的词。
注意：1．每处错误及其修改均仅限一词；
2．只允许修改10处，多者（从第11处起）不计分。
I have a good friend calls Tony. He is our monitor and he as well as some other classmates in our class is outstanding. Though he is a cleverer boy, he works very hard. Have much in common, we have a lot to talk about. One evening he told me what something happening when his parents were out. He was doing his homework one Sunday morning while he smelt something burning. He stopped look out of the window and find a cloud of smoke coming out of his neighbour’s house. He called 119 immediately. Ten minutes late, the firemen came and put off the fire. Her neighbour was very thankful for his help.
【答案】1. calls → called
2. cleverer → clever
3. Have → Having
4. 去掉what
5 while → when
6. stopped后加to
7. find → found
8. late → later
9.off → out
10. Her → His
【解析】
【分析】本文是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了作者的好朋友，也是他们班的班长的优秀事迹。
【详解】第一处：考查非谓语动词。句意：我有一个好朋友叫托尼。名词a good friend与动词call是被动关系，所以用过去分词作定语。故将calls改为called。
第二处：考查形容词。句意：虽然他是个聪明的孩子，但他工作很努力。名词boy前用形容词修饰没有比较意味，所以用形容词的原级。故将cleverer改为clever。
第三处：考查非谓语动词。句意：由于有很多共同点，我们有很多可谈的。逻辑主语we与动词have是主动关系，所以用现在分词作状语。故将Have改为Having。
第四处：考查固定短语。句意：一天晚上，他告诉我他父母不在家时发生的事情。固定短语tell sb. sth.告诉某人某事，是固定搭配，所以不能用疑问词what。故去掉what。
第五处：考查连词。句意：一个星期天早上，他正在做作业，突然闻到一股烧焦的味道。连词while后接连续性动词，be doing sth和when构成固定搭配。故将while改为when。
第六处：考查非谓语动词。句意：他停下来往窗外看，发现一团烟从邻居的房子里冒出来。固定短语stop to do停下来去做某事。故在stopped后加to。
第七处：考查时态。句意：他停下来往窗外看，发现一团烟从邻居的房子里冒出来。根据连词and前的stopped可知，这里是过去时。故将find改为found。
第八处：考查副词。句意：十分钟后，消防队员赶来把火扑灭了。时间后面接的是副词，表示“之后”的意思。故将late改为later。
第九处：考查介词。句意：十分钟后，消防队员赶来把火扑灭了。固定短语put out扑灭。故将off改为out。
第十处：考查代词。句意：他的邻居对他的帮助非常感激。全文讲述的是名叫托尼的小男孩，所以用his。故将Her改为His。

Security making your bike can act as a deterrent to a thief. It can also help the police find your bicycle. It should be clearly written and include your postcode and your house or flat number. This will provide a simple way to identify your bicycle.
Registration
There are a number of companies who will security mark your bicycle for you. They will then put your registration number and personal details on their computer database. Then if your bicycle is found it will be easy to contact you.

MONTREAL (Reuters) – Crossing the US-Canada border（边界）to go to church on a Sunday cost a US citizen ＄10,000 for breaking Washington’s strict new security（安全）rules.
The expensive trip to church was a surprise for Richard Albert, who lives right on the Canadian border. Like the other half-dozen people of Township 15, crossing the border is a daily occurrence for Albert. The nearby Quebec village of St. Pamphile is where they shop, eat and go to church.
There are many such situations in these areas along the largely unguarded 5,530-mile border between Canada and the US-which in some cases actually runs down the middle of streets or through buildings.
As a result, Albert says he did not expect any problems three weeks ago when he returned home to the US after attending church in Canada, as usual. The US customs（海关）station in this are is closed on Sundays, so be just drove around the locked gate, as he had done every weekend since the gate appeared last May, following a tightening of border security. Two days later. Albert was told to go to the customs office, where an officer told him be had been caught on camera crossing the border illegally（非法）.
Ottawa has given out special passes to some 300 US citizens in that area so they can enter the country when Canadian customs stations are closed, but the US stopped a similar program last May. That forces the people to a 200-miledetour along hilly roads to get home through another border checkpoint.
Albert has requested that the customs office change their decisions on the fine, but he has not attended a Sunday church since. “I feel like I’m living in a prison,” he said.
4. We learn from the text that Richard Albert is .
A. an American living in Township 15
B. a Canadian living in a Quebec village
C. a Canadian working in a customs station
D. an American working in a Canadian church
5. Albert was fined because he .
A. failed to obey traffic rules B. broke the American security rules
C. worked in St. Pamphile without a pass D. damaged the gate of the customs office
6 The underlined word “detour” in paragraph 5 means .
A. a drive through the town B. a race across the fields
C. a roundabout way of travelling D. a journey in the mountain area
7. What wd be the best title for the text
A. A Cross-country Trip B. A Special Border Pass
C. An Unguarded Border D. An Expensive Church Visit
C
Is there anything more important than health I don’t think so. “Health is the greatest wealth.” wise people say. You can’t be good at your studies or work well when you are ill.If you have a headache, toothache, backache, earache or bad pain in the stomach, if you complain of a bad cough, if you run a high temperature and have a bad cold, or if you suffer from high or low blood pressure, I think you should go to the doctor. The doctor will examine your throat, feel your pulse, test your blood pressure, take your temperature, sound your heart and lungs, test your eyes, check your teeth or have your chest X- rayed. After that he will advise some treatment, or some medicine. The only thing you have to do is to follow his advice.Speaking about doctor’s advice, I can’t help telling you a funny story. An old gentleman came to see the doctor. The man was very ill. He told the doctor about his weakness, memory loss and serious problems with his heart and lungs. The doctor examined him and said there was no medicine for his disease. He told his patient to go to a quiet place for a month and have a good rest. He also advised him to eat a lot of meat, drink two glasses of red wine every day and take long walks. In other words, the doctor advised him to follow the rule: “Eat at pleasure, drink with measure and enjoy life as it is.” The doctor also said that if the man wanted to be well again, he shouldn’t smoke more than one cigarette a day. A month later the gentleman came into the doctor’s office. He looked cheerful and happy. He thanked the doctor and said that he had never felt a healthier man.“ But you know, doctor,” he said, “it’s not easy to begin smoking at my age.”
8. The writer thinks that_____.
A. health is more important than wealth
B. work is as important as studies
C. medicine is more important than pleasure
D. nothing is more important than money
9. The doctor usually tells his patient what to do______.
A. without examining the patient
B. after he has examined the patient
C. if the patient doesn’t take medicine
D. unless the patient feels pain
10. From the last sentence of the passage, we learn the man_______ before the doctor told himnot to smoke more than one cigarette a day.
A. was a heavy smoker B. didn’t smoke so much
C. didn’t smoke D. began to learn to smoke
11. Which of the following is NOT true
A. The doctor usually tests his/her blood pressure when a person is ill.
B. The man told the doctor he couldn’t remember things.
C. The man thanked the doctor.
D. The man didn’t follow the doctor’s advice.
D
Is running a marathon (马拉松) under two hours possible Will a human ever be able to run that fast Now, the world record for the 42.195km (26.219 miles) distance is held by the Kenyan runner Eliud Kipchoge. His time of 2:01:39 hours was achieved at the Berlin Marathon of 2018.
But studies published in the past have come to the conclusion that running a marathon under 2 hours can be done. They even see a time of around 1:57 as the fastest a human can ever run. However, we may have to wait longer for this to happen.
To achieve an under two-hour marathon, an athlete would have to have the perfect body size and weight, the right running plans and of course, the right nutrition (营养). Today’s perfect runners come from Kenya and Ethiopia, countries that have dominated (占优势) long distance races for years. East African athletes have long legs and lungs that can take in lots of oxygen (氧). Training at high altitudes (海拔) gives them a strong heart. Ideal weather conditions with cool temperatures and no wind will also be needed to attempt such a mark. An extremely fast marathon would only be possible on flat city courses, like Berlin or London.
Since the beginning of the modern Olympic Games in 1896, athletes have tried to run long distance races as fast as possible. In 1900, the marathon world record was at around 3 hours. In the following 30 years, men were able to reach a mark of 2:30. But in the last 15 years, the world record has improved by only 3 minutes.
On the other side, some experts think that such fast performances will only be possible with the help of some medicine.
12. Why is the world record mentioned in Paragraph 1
A. To show a human can run very fast.
B. To prove Eliud Kipchoge is the best.
C. To introduce the greatest success in the world.
D. To show an under two hour marathon hasn’t been achieved yet.
13. Why is it difficult to see a time of around 1:57
A. It requires too many things to fit together.
B. It isn’t easy to find right running plans.
C. Training a perfect runner takes a long time.
D. Kenyan and Ethiopian runners control marathons.
14. Which of the following may be important for an under two-hour marathon
A. High altitudes. B. Lots of oxygen.
C. A perfect environment. D. Tall and strong runners.
15. What can we learn from Paragraph 4
A. Men will run faster and faster.
B. Men made the greatest progress in 1930.
C. Achieving shorter time became more difficult.
D. It’s impossible to break the marathon world record.
