When I was growing up, I had an old neighbor named Doctor Gibbs. He didn’t look like any doctor I’d ever known. He never yelled at us for playing in his yard, but was always very kind.
When Doctor Gibbs wasn’t saving lives, he was planting trees. He had some interesting theories about planting trees. He hardly watered his new trees, an attitude which flew in the face of conventional wisdom.
Once I asked why and he told me that watering plants spoiled them because it made them grow weaker. He said he had to make things tough for the trees so that only the strongest could survive. He talked about how watering trees made them develop shallow roots and how, if they were not watered, trees would grow deep roots in search of water.
So, instead of watering his trees every morning, he’d beat them with a rolled-up newspaper. I asked him why he did that, and he said it was to get the trees’ attention.
Doctor Gibbs died a couple of years after I left home. Every now and then, I walked by his house and looked at the trees that I'd watched him plant some 25 years ago. They were tall and strong.
Every night before I go to bed, I check on my two sons. I often pray that their lives will be easy. But lately I’ve been thinking that it’s time to change my prayer. I know my children are going to encounter hardship. There’s always a cold wind blowing somewhere. What we need to do is to pray for deep roots, so when the rains fall and the winds blow, we won’t be torn apart.
4. What did the author think of Doctor Gibbs’s planting trees at first
A. Perfect . B. Puzzled.
C. Amused. D. Impractical .
5. What did Doctor Gibbs do to the trees he planted
A. He let them grow quickly.
B. He beat them to get their attention.
C. He helped them search for water.
D. He read a newspaper near them.
6. Which of the following can best describe Doctor Gibbs
A. Kind and wise. B. Calm and brave.
C. Careful and ambitious D. Strict and devoted.
7. What does the author learn from Doctor Gibbs
A. Elders are treasures.
B. Two heads are better than one.
C. A man without distant care must have near sorrow.
D. Only those who bear the most become the highest.
C
Did you know roughly one third of food for human consumption goes to waste Most of it is fresh fruit and vegetables that go bad. The produce dries out or goes bad, which has led scientists to develop ways of coating or sealing the food to keep it fresher for longer. Now research at Rice University reveals there might be a better way.
Scientists discovered that dipping produce like strawberries and bananas into an egg-based wash is remarkably good for preserving it. The coating is extremely thick, and made from a mixture of powdered egg whites and yolks(70%), and some wood-sourced cellulose to act as a barrier preventing water loss.
What the scientists found was that the egg wash made a significant difference in helping produce stay fresh over a two-week observation period. The appearance of the coated fruits and vegetables didn’t change much, while the uncoated produce ripened and. even rotted within the same time frame. The egg-based coating, as it turned out, reduced each fruit’s chance to get exposed to oxygen.
The non-poisonous coating was found to be flexible and tests showed that it was just as tough as other products, including synthetic films, used in produce packaging. For anyone with an egg allergy, the coating can be removed by thorough washing in water and is tasteless.
The scientists hope this could be a breakthrough in the fight against food waste. "Reducing food shortages in ways that are not related to genetic modification, uneatable coatings or chemical additives is important for better sustainable living ,”said materials scientist and study author Pulickel Ajayan.
What’s great about this discovery is that it fights food waste in more than one way: even the coating was made from eggs that would otherwise have been discarded because they weren’t fit for consumption. The researchers said roughly 200 million of US produced eggs go to waste annually. So if this were scaled up, it could be a win-win situation all around.
8. How does the egg-based wash help keep food fresh
A. By limiting its oxygen exposure B. By making its coating less thick.
C. By removing its cellulose slowly. D. By improving its absorbent ability
9. Why is Pulickel Ajayan mentioned in the text
A. To stress the seriousness of food shortage. B. To offer the method of cutting food waste.
C. To show the significance of the discovery. D. To give brief description of the research.
10. What does the underlined word “discarded” in the last paragraph probably mean
A. Eaten up. B. Taken in. C. Picked out. D. Thrown away.
11. What is the text mainly about
A. How to use eggs creatively. B. A new way to preserve food.
C. How to recycle food waste. D. A breakthrough in technology.
D
Walking through a local park recently, I saw a teenage boy wearing a T-shirt that read: “Effort wins over talent. ” It reminded me of an idea I think about often, that if you believe you can learn new things and develop new skills, by working hard, you are more likely to achieve those goals. This critical insight was brought up by Dr. Carol Dweck, a Stanford University psychologist, as a “growth mindset”.
According to Dr. Dweck’s research, “talent is not fixed.” Studies by Dweck and others have shown students who have a fixed mindset see new learning experiences as a moment to be judged, not an opportunity to learn. This can make learning a painful struggle, leading many to give up. Students who have a growth mindset, on the other hand, experience challenges as the way to learn and improve. They see hard work as being about learning. Overall, they learn and achieve at higher levels, even when they start out at the same place as those with fixed mindsets.
While Dweck identified growth mindset more than a decade ago, her insights were not made up. They have since been backed up by brain science, made possible by new technology that allows researchers to see images of the brain at work. Studies show that, when a person responds to new and difficult material by engaging in a struggle to learn, the neurons in their brain grow.
Believing that you can grow your abilities through effort—that talent is not fixed—is crucial(要的). As Dweck puts it in her TED talk, we need to focus on showing young people the "Power of Yet” meaning, I haven't learned this yet, or I'm not good at this yet.
Growth mindset is an important idea for educators and schools, but it's also a powerful tool that everyone can use to help themselves to learn and achieve at high levels.
12. What does the underlined word “insight” in paragraph 1 mean
A. Scenery. B. Research.
C. Question. D. Idea.
13. How is paragraph 2 mainly developed
A. By making comparisons. B. By giving explanations.
C. By listing examples. D. By describing details.
14. Which of the following statements shows growth mindset
A. “Wow, you are really gifted in maths.” B. “I just don't understand it yet.”
C. “You are a clever student.” D. “My talents determine everything.”
15. What will the author probably discuss next
A. Why to develop a better mindset. B. When to obtain a better mindset.
C. How to apply the growth mindset. D. Where to learn the growth mindset.

Doctor Gibbs died a couple of years after I left home. Every now and then, I walked by his house and looked at the trees that I'd watched him plant some 25 years ago. They were tall and strong.
Every night before I go to bed, I check on my two sons. I often pray that their lives will be easy. But lately I’ve been thinking that it’s time to change my prayer. I know my children are going to encounter hardship. There’s always a cold wind blowing somewhere. What we need to do is to pray for deep roots, so when the rains fall and the winds blow, we won’t be torn apart.

Did you know roughly one third of food for human consumption goes to waste Most of it is fresh fruit and vegetables that go bad. The produce dries out or goes bad, which has led scientists to develop ways of coating or sealing the food to keep it fresher for longer. Now research at Rice University reveals there might be a better way.
Scientists discovered that dipping produce like strawberries and bananas into an egg-based wash is remarkably good for preserving it. The coating is extremely thick, and made from a mixture of powdered egg whites and yolks(70%), and some wood-sourced cellulose to act as a barrier preventing water loss.
What the scientists found was that the egg wash made a significant difference in helping produce stay fresh over a two-week observation period. The appearance of the coated fruits and vegetables didn’t change much, while the uncoated produce ripened and. even rotted within the same time frame. The egg-based coating, as it turned out, reduced each fruit’s chance to get exposed to oxygen.
The non-poisonous coating was found to be flexible and tests showed that it was just as tough as other products, including synthetic films, used in produce packaging. For anyone with an egg allergy, the coating can be removed by thorough washing in water and is tasteless.
The scientists hope this could be a breakthrough in the fight against food waste. "Reducing food shortages in ways that are not related to genetic modification, uneatable coatings or chemical additives is important for better sustainable living ,”said materials scientist and study author Pulickel Ajayan.
What’s great about this discovery is that it fights food waste in more than one way: even the coating was made from eggs that would otherwise have been discarded because they weren’t fit for consumption. The researchers said roughly 200 million of US produced eggs go to waste annually. So if this were scaled up, it could be a win-win situation all around.
8. How does the egg-based wash help keep food fresh
A. By limiting its oxygen exposure B. By making its coating less thick.
C. By removing its cellulose slowly. D. By improving its absorbent ability
9. Why is Pulickel Ajayan mentioned in the text
A. To stress the seriousness of food shortage. B. To offer the method of cutting food waste.
C. To show the significance of the discovery. D. To give brief description of the research.
10. What does the underlined word “discarded” in the last paragraph probably mean
A. Eaten up. B. Taken in. C. Picked out. D. Thrown away.
11. What is the text mainly about
A. How to use eggs creatively. B. A new way to preserve food.
C. How to recycle food waste. D. A breakthrough in technology.
【答案】8. A 9. C 10. D 11. B
【解析】
【分析】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了一种使食物更新鲜且保存更久的方法，即使用以鸡蛋液为基础的液体。文章还介绍了这一方法的发现过程以及这一发现的重要意义。
【8题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段中“The egg-based coating, as it turned out, reduced each fruit’s chance to get exposed to oxygen.(事实证明，以鸡蛋为基础的外壳减少了每个水果暴露在氧气中的机会)”可知，以鸡蛋为基础的外壳通过阻止食物与氧气接触来保鲜。故选A。
【9题详解】
推理判断题。根据倒数第二段“The scientists hope this could be a breakthrough in the fight against food waste. ‘Reducing food shortages in ways that are not related to genetic modification, uneatable coatings or chemical additives is important for better sustainable living,’ said materials scientist and study author Pulickel Ajayan.(科学家们希望这能成为对抗食物浪费的一个突破。材料科学家、研究作者Pulickel Ajayan说：‘以与基因改造、不可食用涂料或化学添加剂无关的方式减少粮食短缺，对更好的可持续生活很重要。’)”可推断，文章提到Pulickel Ajayan旨在说明该发现的意义。故选C。
【10题详解】
词义猜测题。根据画线词上文“even the coating was made from eggs that would otherwise have been”以及后文“because they weren’t fit for consumption”可知，涂层也是由鸡蛋制成的，否则它们就会因为不适合食用而被丢弃。故画线词的意思为“丢弃”。A. Eaten up.吃光；B. Taken in.理解；C. Picked out.挑选出；D. Thrown away.丢弃。故选D。
【11题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第二段“Scientists discovered that dipping produce like strawberries and bananas into an egg-based wash is remarkably good for preserving it. The coating is extremely thick, and made from a mixture of powdered egg whites and yolks(70%), and some wood-sourced cellulose to act as a barrier preventing water loss.(科学家们发现，将草莓和香蕉等农产品浸泡在以鸡蛋为原料的洗涤液中对保存效果非常好。涂层非常厚，由蛋白粉和70%的蛋黄的混合物制成，还有一些木质纤维素作为防止水分流失的屏障)”结合文章主要介绍了一种使食物更新鲜且保存更久的方法，即使用以鸡蛋液为基础的液体。文章介绍了这一方法的发现过程以及这一发现的重要意义。可知，这篇文章的主要内容是一种保存食物的新方法。故选B。
D
Walking through a local park recently, I saw a teenage boy wearing a T-shirt that read: “Effort wins over talent. ” It reminded me of an idea I think about often, that if you believe you can learn new things and develop new skills, by working hard, you are more likely to achieve those goals. This critical insight was brought up by Dr. Carol Dweck, a Stanford University psychologist, as a “growth mindset”.
According to Dr. Dweck’s research, “talent is not fixed.” Studies by Dweck and others have shown students who have a fixed mindset see new learning experiences as a moment to be judged, not an opportunity to learn. This can make learning a painful struggle, leading many to give up. Students who have a growth mindset, on the other hand, experience challenges as the way to learn and improve. They see hard work as being about learning. Overall, they learn and achieve at higher levels, even when they start out at the same place as those with fixed mindsets.
While Dweck identified growth mindset more than a decade ago, her insights were not made up. They have since been backed up by brain science, made possible by new technology that allows researchers to see images of the brain at work. Studies show that, when a person responds to new and difficult material by engaging in a struggle to learn, the neurons in their brain grow.
Believing that you can grow your abilities through effort—that talent is not fixed—is crucial(要的). As Dweck puts it in her TED talk, we need to focus on showing young people the "Power of Yet” meaning, I haven't learned this yet, or I'm not good at this yet.
Growth mindset is an important idea for educators and schools, but it's also a powerful tool that everyone can use to help themselves to learn and achieve at high levels.
12. What does the underlined word “insight” in paragraph 1 mean
A. Scenery. B. Research.
C. Question. D. Idea.
13. How is paragraph 2 mainly developed
A. By making comparisons. B. By giving explanations.
C. By listing examples. D. By describing details.
14. Which of the following statements shows growth mindset
A. “Wow, you are really gifted in maths.” B. “I just don't understand it yet.”
C. “You are a clever student.” D. “My talents determine everything.”
15. What will the author probably discuss next
A. Why to develop a better mindset. B. When to obtain a better mindset.
C. How to apply the growth mindset. D. Where to learn the growth mindset.
【答案】12. D 13. A 14. B 15. C
【解析】
【分析】这是一篇议论文。文章通过对比，论述了成长型思维的特点和好处。
【12题详解】
词义猜测题。根据第一段中的“It reminded me of an idea I think about often, if you believe you can learn new things and develop new skills, by working hard, you are more likely to achieve those goals可知，作者经常思考一个想法：如果你相信通过努力工作，你可以学到新东西，发展新技能，你就更有可能实现这些目标。这是Dr. Carol Dweck提出的一个想法。因此，insight的意思是想法、领悟。故选D。
【13题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段中on the other hand前面的内容：students who have a fixed mindset…和后面的内容：Students who have a growth mindset…可知，作者对比两种思维方式：固定型思维和成长型思维，因此，作者是通过作比较进行该段的写作。故选A。
【14题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段中的“Students who have a growth mindset, on the other hand, experience challenges as the way to learn and improve. They see hard work as being about learning”可知，有成长心态的学生在学习和提高的过程中会遇到挑战。他们把努力工作看作是学习。根据第四段中的“Believing that you can grow your abilities through effort—that talent is not fixed—is crucial(要的). As Dweck puts it in her TED talk, we need to focus on showing young people the "Power of Yet” meaning, I haven't learned this yet, or I'm not good at this yet.”可知，成长型思维相信自己可以通过努力来提高自己的能力—天赋不是固定的。因此我们需要集中精力向年轻人展示“专注过程而不是结果”，意思是，我还没学会这个，或者说我还不擅长这个。由此判断出，B选项（我只是还不明白）这属于成长型思维的人的想法。故选B。
【15题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段“Growth mindset is an important idea for educators and schools, but it's also a powerful tool that everyone can use to help themselves to learn and achieve at high levels.”可知，成长型思维对于教育工作者和学校来说是一个重要的概念，但它也是一个强大的工具，每个人都可以用它来帮助自己学习和达到高水平。既然成长型思维这么重要，那么下面的内容承接该段，应该讨论如何运用成长型思维。故选C。
【点睛】根据语境来推测词义。语境既上下文。由于上下文中的生词不是孤立存在的，其词义与句中其它词的词义或具体的语境有着密切的联系。因此在阅读过程中，许多生词的词义可以充分利用上下文中相关的词汇，短语并结合具体的语境来推测。例如在第1题中，考生根据对语境的理解，可以得出画线词和前文提到的“idea”意思相近，从而得出答案。

【分析】这是一篇说明文。文章主要是关于学生该如何选择自己要上的学校的建议，说明了虽然亲戚和同事可能有非常有价值的建议，但还是要自己做决定，充分考虑每一种选择, 保持开放的心态, 把自己的教育放在首位。
【41题详解】
考查介词。句意：像许多其他学生一样，你可能会有各种各样的人，包括家庭成员和朋友，为你的大学决定提供意见。结合句意表示“包含……在内”，后跟名词family members and friends作宾语，应用介词including。故填including。
【42题详解】
考查形容词。句意：虽然许多你信任的亲戚和同龄人可能有非常有价值的建议，它可以帮助你做决定，但是最终的选择要你自己做出，也只能靠你自己做出。修饰后文名词advice，作定语，应用形容词valuable。故填valuable。
【43题详解】
考查形容词。句意：只有你才能充分意识到大学的哪些方面会让你真正感到快乐和满足，所以要把这一点放在心上。此处为“make+宾语+宾补”结构，此处修饰人应用-ed结尾形容词satisfied，作宾补。故填satisfied。
【44题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意：在你做决定的早期阶段，把一所特定的学校作为首选是很容易的，它甚至可能成为你的最佳选择——但一定要仔细评估每一所录取你的学校，因为你申请每一所学校都有特定的理由。此处为“it be adj. to do sth.”句型，it作形式主语，不定式为真正主语。故填to let。
【45题详解】
考查介词。句意：在你做决定的早期阶段，把一所特定的学校作为首选是很容易的，它甚至可能成为你的最佳选择——但一定要仔细评估每一所录取你的学校，因为你申请每一所学校都有特定的理由。结合语境表示“在……阶段”故填in/during。
【46题详解】
考查定语从句。句意：在你做决定的早期阶段，把一所特定的学校作为首选是很容易的，它甚至可能成为你的最佳选择——但一定要仔细评估每一所录取你的学校，因为你申请每一所学校都有特定的理由。此处为定语从句修饰先行词school，先行词在从句中作主语，指物，且由every修饰，只能用关系代词that引导。故填that。
【47题详解】
考查冠词。句意：一定要保持开放的心态。结合句意表示“保持开放心态”短语为keep an open mind。故填an。
【48题详解】
考查副词。句意：不要专门为了一段高中恋情或者让别人开心而去一所学校上学。修饰后文介词短语for a high school relationship，应用副词specifically，作状语。故填specifically。
【49题详解】
考查连词。句意：不要专门为了一段高中恋情或者让别人开心而去一所学校上学。否定句中，表示“或者”应用连词or。故填or。
【50题详解】
考查名词所有格。句意：一个学生的大学经历是他或她自己的，学生必须把他或她的教育放在首位。此处student与后文college experience构成所属关系，结合后文“his or her own”可知指一个学生的大学经历，故应用有生命的名词所有格形式student’s。故填student’s。

Nowadays many young parents are addicted in their electric devices like smartphones or computers, pay less or no attention to their kids.
Then what does it come about Admittedly, the smartphone indeed dramatic changes our life. With it, people can do nearly everything we want, such as surfing the Internet for information, watching films or video, doing some online shopping and playing games as well. Thus, a smartphone serves as platform for them to get fun in a comfortable and convenient way. As a result, more and more young parents are being attracted.
However, something can replace face-to-face communication between parents and kids, which requires parents to think about the real meaning of life, spends more time with their children and have fun together. Only in this way can a better parent-child relationship will be developed.
【答案】1. in→to/into；2.pay→paying；3.what→how；4. dramatic→dramatically；5.we→they；6.video→videos；7.在as后加a；8.something→nothing；9.spends→spend；10.去掉最后一句中的will。
【解析】
【分析】这是一篇议论文。如今，许多年轻的父母沉迷于他们的电子设备，很少或根本不关心他们的孩子。然而，没有什么可以代替父母和孩子之间面对面的交流，这需要父母思考生活的真正意义，花更多的时间和他们的孩子在一起玩。
【详解】1.考查固定词组。句意：如今，许多年轻的父母沉迷于他们的电子设备，如智能手机或电脑，很少或根本不关心他们的孩子。固定词组：be addicted to/into“对……上瘾”。故把in改成to/into。
2.考查现在分词做伴随状语。句意：如今，许多年轻的父母沉迷于他们的电子设备，如智能手机或电脑，很少或根本不关心他们的孩子。句子主语parents和pay之间是一种主动关系，是现在分词做伴随状语，故把pay改成paying。
3.考查特殊疑问词。句意：那它是怎么发生的呢 此处come about“形成，产生”，相当于及物动词，不能跟宾语，这里缺少状语“如何，怎么”。故把what改成how。
4.考查副词。句意：无可否认，智能手机确实极大地改变了我们的生活。此处changes是动词，由副词修饰，故把dramatic改成dramatically。
5.考查人称代词。句意：人们几乎可以做任何他们想做的事情，比如上网查找信息，看电影或视频，网上购物和玩游戏。此处用they代替people，故把we改成they。
6.考查名词复数。句意：人们几乎可以做任何他们想做的事情，比如上网查找信息，看电影或视频，网上购物和玩游戏。根据films可知与之并列的video也用名词复数。故把video改成videos。
7.考查不定冠词。句意：智能手机为他们提供了一个舒适方便的娱乐平台。此处指提供了“一个”平台。故在as后加a。
8.考查不定代词。句意：然而，没有什么可以代替父母和孩子之间面对面的交流，这需要父母思考生活的真正意义，花更多的时间和他们的孩子在一起玩。结合句意，此处指“没有什么”能替代，用不定代词nothing。故把something改成nothing。
9.考查动词不定式做宾语补足语。句意：然而，没有什么可以代替父母和孩子之间面对面的交流，这需要父母思考生活的真正意义，花更多的时间和他们的孩子在一起玩。固定搭配：require sb. to do sth.“需要某人做某事”。此处是动词不定式做宾语补足语，与to think构成并列关系。故把.spends→spend。
10.考查情态动词的用法。句意：只有这样才能发展出更好的亲子关系。此处Only加状语in this way位于句子开头句子用部分倒装，情态动词can已经放在主语前面，所以will是多余的，故把去掉最后一句中的will。
【点睛】“only+状语”位于句首时倒装：当一个状语受副词only的修饰且置于句首时，其后用部分倒装语序： 如：Only then did he realize that he was wrong. 到那时他才意识到他错了。
