Some of my fondest memories with my family are from when I was in middle school, when the three of us enjoyed trips that I remember vividly to this day. But during my younger days, like 4 or 5 years old, we vacationed in places like Cancun, Jamaica and Hawaii and I can't tell whether I actually recall those memories or whether I'm filling in the gaps through photo albums.
A frequent discussion I have with my coworkers and friends, who are also in their 20s, is how we wish our parents had taken us on more vacations when we were much older. What I suggest is to hold off on those grand vacations until your kid is about 12, when they can begin to understand what a privilege is, and you can save the international travel until they're in high school. Of course, I do understand that sometimes, it's not the kids but the parents who just want to enjoy a vacation. But in other cases, when the main goal is to create family memories, you can still accomplish that in other ways.
It wasn't until college that I realized how important travel is, and I can't tell you how many times I've thought about wanting to redo those family trips now. Especially during a time in my life when an international trip is outside of my budget, I think about how much money my parents spent on our vacations that ended up being a complete blur.
I'm not telling you to deprive (剥夺)your children of fun family memories, either. I'm simply arguing that you should travel locally or within your state. Although your little ones might not care about the destination, they will remember that you are all together and have a great time. That's the most important thing, anyway.
1.How does the author feel when recalling the previous trip to Hawaii
A.Disappointed. B.Delighted. C.Touched. D.Frightened.
2.When does the author think is the right time for children to travel abroad
A.When they start to go to school. B.When they are 4 or 5 years old.
C.When they study in high school. D.When they are eager to have a trip.
3.What does the underlined word "blur" in Paragraph 3 refer to
A.Jokes that are made between families. B.Efforts that are made to achieve a goal.
C.Memories that can't be remembered clearly. D.Expectations that may be reached in future.
4.What may be the best title for the text
A.Create Chances of Vacations with Children
B.My Memories of Those Previous Vacations
C.Older Children Hope to Travel with Their Parents
D.Take Children on Vacation until They Are Old Enough
C
Taking a shower is relaxing. You can hum a song, daydream or think about nothing, leaving the real world behind you. But did you know that showering can also benefit your mind
A research by Scott Barry Kaufman, a psychologist from Yale University in the US interviewed over 3,000 people around the world. It turned out that nearly two-thirds of the interviewees said they had experienced new ideas in the shower and were more likely to have them in the shower than at work.
So why does a simple shower have such magic power Science can explain it.
Showering can help to raise our level of dopamine (多巴胺),a hormone(激素) closely related to our creativity. " People vary in terms of their level of creativity according to the activity of dopamine, “explained Alice Flaherty, a famous American neuroscientist.” Taking a warm shower can make us feel relaxed and therefore make the dopamine level rise and bring ‘ Aha! ’ moments to us.”
Besides the chemical changes, showering may give you a break from what you fee] you have been stuck with. Especially when you have thought hard all day about a problem, jumping into the shower can keep you from the outside world so that you can focus on your inner feelings and memories. In this way, according to American psychologist Shelley H. Carson, author of Your Creative Brain, " a showering hour may turn into an ‘incubation(孵化) period’ for your ideas".
Compared with sitting in front of a computer, taking a shower is something we do less frequently in our daily life. When showering, we get a fresh experience with the change of location, temperature and humidity. “New and unexpected experiences can lead to positive changes in thinking," explained Kaufman. “Getting off the couch and jumping in the shower may create a distance and force you to think from a new point of view.”
Showering allows us to enjoy the creative juices of our minds, but it needn’t just be the bathroom where you get your inspiration. For instance, Gertrude Stein, a female American writer and poet, got new ideas by driving around a farm and stopping at different cows until she found the one that most inspired her. So try to create your own way to free your mind, whether it’s a walk near the ocean, a country drive or reading a book at home.
1.According to the passage, what changes can showering cause
A.Bringing the terrible moment to us.
B.Increasing the level of dopamine.
C.Leading to boredom or tiredness.
D.Setting the creative part of the brain free.
2.If one has focused on something all day, showering can help ___________.
A.turn one’s attention inwards
B.draw one's attention to the outside world
C.make an important breakthrough
D.many chemical changes to take place
3.What can be inferred from the passage
A.Changes in the frequency of an action can create a new perspective.
B.It is a good idea to talk with others about their sources of inspiration.
C.Our lives might feel longer and fuller if we frequently try new things.
D.It is helpful to try something different rather than stay focused on a difficult task.
4.The example of Gertrude Stein in the last paragraph is used to ________.
A.encourage readers to find their own ways of getting inspiration
B.point out to readers that it’s hard to find inspiration
C.explain how to link inspiration with readers' daily lives
D.show that creativity often comes from strange places
D
Did anyone find the names of “Great Britain”, “the United Kingdom”, “England” and “the British commonwealth” which have the same meaning Strictly speaking, these names all refer to something different. None of them are exactly the same as any of the others.

六、阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
Adventures Through the Gorge
We put the raft in the calm, cold water. I looked down. The water was like a mirror. It was a foggy morning, so I could barely make out what was down the river. When we took our places in the raft, I was in the back with my dad right across from me. Our tour guide was telling us the basics of rafting, and it seemed that she was patronizing(以高人一等的态度对待) us! I was terrified. Since I was in the back, I was sure I would be the one to fall out. But I had always been an optimist, so I thought it would turn out okay.
Then I looked up and saw a big, gray cloud. I looked down at the river, and it started to get louder and closer to us; soon raindrops pelted down(倾盆而下). Once we moved out of the rain, the clouds faded away, and the sun was shining down on us for the rest of the day. As I looked around, I saw the monstrous, green trees standing over me. It was beautiful.
As we moved farther down the river, I heard the water flowing gracefully. When we moved deeper into the gorge, it got louder and louder. This was our first rapids. It seemed that we were approaching the rapids slowly, but we were at the top of the rapids in the blink of an eye (眨眼的功夫). It felt like time stopped. I was so excited and nervous; I thought I was going to die. It was a bumpy ride down. Getting splashed with water, we raced up and down the rocks. There was not a patch of dry skin on us by the time we hit the bottom.
After we got through the rapids, I was so excited! Going down made me feel I could do anything. Our tour guide told us we were going to approach Category 5 rapids. They were more intense than the Category 1 rapids, and I got a little more nervous. It took us a little while to get to the rapids because we had to go down a long river. We were allowed to jump off the raft and swim down the river until we had to get back.
注意:续写词数应为150左右。
Paragraph 1:
About three minutes later, the Category 5 rapids were coming.
_______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Paragraph 2:
After racing down the rapids, I was no longer scared.

答案以及解析
一、
A.答案：1.D; 2.C; 3.B; 4.B
解析：1.考查简单计算。根据题干和价格可知:$ 900.00 X 2 + $850.00 x 2 = $ 3,500,故选 D。
2.考查细节理解。根据倒数第二段中的"a helicopter flight to the peak of Mt Luxmore"可知,在Kepler Track旅游中,人们可以坐直升机到达Luxmore的山顶,故选C。
3.考查细节理解。根据文章最后一段中的"Basic fitness is required" 可知,参加这项活动要求参与者拥有健康的体质,故选B。
4.考查文章出处。根据文章内容可知,这是一则广告,主要介绍了三日游的一些情况,所以文章最可能会出现在介绍旅游的册子上。故选B。
B.答案：1-4.ACCD
解析：1.考查推理判断。由第一段中的"But during my younger days, like 4 or 5 years old, we vacationed in places... photo albums"可知,作者四五岁时到坎昆、牙买加和夏威夷这些地方旅行过,作者现在不能判断自己是否能真正地回忆起这些经历,或者是否要通过相册来填补自己记忆的空白。由此可以推断出,作者对到夏威夷去旅游已经没有什么印象,因此作者应该是感到失望的。故A项正确。
2.考查细节理解。由第二段中的"What I suggest is to... and you can save the international travel until they're in high school"可知,作者认为孩子到了高中再出国旅游是合适的。故C项正确。
3.考查词义猜测。根据语境并结合第一段内容可知,作者对于四五岁时的出国旅行已经没有什么印象了。故C项正确。
4.考查主旨大意。作者结合自己的经历告诉读者:过早带孩子出国旅行于孩子而言没有什么太大的意义。作者在第二段中建议孩子到了高中再带他们出国旅行,在最后一段中建议带小孩子在当地旅游。故D选项适合作该文标题。
C.答案：1.B; 2.A; 3.D; 4.A
解析：1.考查细节理解。根据第四段"Showering can help to raise our level of dopamine(多巴胺), a hormone(激素) closely related to our creativity. . . Taking a warm shower can make us feel relaxed and therefore make the dopamine level rise and bring 'Aha!' moments to us"可知,洗澡能提高多巴胺水平。所以B项正确。
2.考查细节理解。根据第五段的内容可知,如果一个人一整天都冥思苦想一个问题,洗个澡就有助于把注意力转移到内心感受上。故选A。
3.考查推理判断。根据最后一段的内容可以推断出尝试一些不同的事情而不是只专注于一件困难的任务是有益的。所以D项的表述符合作者的言外之意。A、B、C三项的表述要么不符合原文之意,要么原文没有提到。故选D。
4.考查细节理解。根据最后一段中的“So try to create your own way to free your mind" 可知,Gertrude Stein的故辑是被用来鼓励读者找到他们6己获得灵感的方式的。故选A。
D.答案：1.A 2.B 3.D 4.B
解析：文章介绍英国的不同的名字,和它们具体所指的地方,虽然这些名字可以被用来代表这个国家,但是含义还是有差别的。
小题1:细节题:从第一段的句子:Did anyone find the names of “Great Britain”, “the United Kingdom”, “England” and “the British commonwealth” which have the same meaning 可知Great Britain 和Britain 都是英国的意思,选A
小题2:细节题:从文章第二段的句子:The British isles refer to the main islands and several thousand small ones as well, which you can see on the map.可知British isles是指两个主岛和成千上万的小岛,选 B
小题3:细节题:从第二段的句子:The British isles refer to the main islands and several thousand small ones as well, which you can see on the map. Great Britain, or Britain, refers to the larger of the two main islands. But the word “Britain” is often used as a short form for the United Kingdom or you call it the UK. 可知The British isles要大于 Great Britain,Great Britain大于Britain, 所以选D。
小题4:推理题:从文章的内容:Great Britain是整个大不列颠,Scotland 是苏格兰,Edinburgh,是一个城市所以依据写信的地址格式,小的地址在前面,可知如果你想写信给在苏格兰的Edinburgh 的人,地址应该写成Edinburgh, Scotland ,Great Britain,选B
二、答案：GDEFA
解析：①根据A guide dog helps its owner cross the street and do many other things.可知, 导盲犬能帮助主人过马路和做其他很多事情, G项"但是成为导盲犬并不容易"承接上文, 且引出下文对如何驯犬的介绍, 符合语境。
②本段主要讲使狗从小接受训练。上文中的关键信息in its first year与D项中的six weeks old呼应。由空后一句中的Teach it simple commands也可推知选D项。
③下文The course will develop its skills as a guide dog.中的The course与E项中的a course呼应, 表示狗到一岁时应该被送到训练中心去接受以奖励为基础的培训。故选E项。
④根据设空处后面内容可知, 本段介绍了最后的训练阶段是让狗在指导者的监督下为盲人导航。所以F项"让狗进入最后训练阶段"符合语境。
⑤本段是总结段, 根据下文Then they will work as a team.可知, 如果一只狗在学校里表现得很好, 它就准备好为自己的主人服务了, 空后的they指代A项中的the dog和its blind owner。故选A项。
三、答案：1-5.BCDAB; 6-10.ACCDB; 11-15.BBDCD

五、答案：
A Cross-Country Running Race
With the purpose of improving students' fitness, our school launched the 5-kilometer cross-country running race, which finished successfully last Sunday.

The pavements beside the running route, which was from the school gate to the foot of South Hill, were packed with students and teachers who gave loud cheers and applause to the players. Though tired and exhausted, the players all regarded this competition as a good way of building up their strength.
六、答案：
Paragraph 1:
About three minutes later, the Category 5 rapids were coming. The raft raced down the rapids. Water was splashing on the rocks, letting out louder noise. Screaming all the way down, I saw white water all over. I was so nervous because there were five big solid rocks sticking out. If a little careless, we might hit one and get turned upside down. In the blink of an eye, we passed by the last huge rock, entering a small calm ride. When we settled at the bottom, I wanted to go back up and do it all again.
Paragraph 2:
After racing down the rapids, I was no longer scared. "What did you think about the Category 5 rapids " my dad asked. "I was super nervous at first. But when we hit the bottom, I wanted to do it once more." "Would you say you become more confident about yourself " he continued. "Yes, I would say I become more confident about myself," I smiled.

Some of my fondest memories with my family are from when I was in middle school, when the three of us enjoyed trips that I remember vividly to this day. But during my younger days, like 4 or 5 years old, we vacationed in places like Cancun, Jamaica and Hawaii and I can't tell whether I actually recall those memories or whether I'm filling in the gaps through photo albums.
A frequent discussion I have with my coworkers and friends, who are also in their 20s, is how we wish our parents had taken us on more vacations when we were much older. What I suggest is to hold off on those grand vacations until your kid is about 12, when they can begin to understand what a privilege is, and you can save the international travel until they're in high school. Of course, I do understand that sometimes, it's not the kids but the parents who just want to enjoy a vacation. But in other cases, when the main goal is to create family memories, you can still accomplish that in other ways.
It wasn't until college that I realized how important travel is, and I can't tell you how many times I've thought about wanting to redo those family trips now. Especially during a time in my life when an international trip is outside of my budget, I think about how much money my parents spent on our vacations that ended up being a complete blur.
I'm not telling you to deprive (剥夺)your children of fun family memories, either. I'm simply arguing that you should travel locally or within your state. Although your little ones might not care about the destination, they will remember that you are all together and have a great time. That's the most important thing, anyway.
1.How does the author feel when recalling the previous trip to Hawaii
A.Disappointed. B.Delighted. C.Touched. D.Frightened.
2.When does the author think is the right time for children to travel abroad
A.When they start to go to school. B.When they are 4 or 5 years old.
C.When they study in high school. D.When they are eager to have a trip.
3.What does the underlined word "blur" in Paragraph 3 refer to
A.Jokes that are made between families. B.Efforts that are made to achieve a goal.
C.Memories that can't be remembered clearly. D.Expectations that may be reached in future.
4.What may be the best title for the text
A.Create Chances of Vacations with Children
B.My Memories of Those Previous Vacations
C.Older Children Hope to Travel with Their Parents
D.Take Children on Vacation until They Are Old Enough

Taking a shower is relaxing. You can hum a song, daydream or think about nothing, leaving the real world behind you. But did you know that showering can also benefit your mind
A research by Scott Barry Kaufman, a psychologist from Yale University in the US interviewed over 3,000 people around the world. It turned out that nearly two-thirds of the interviewees said they had experienced new ideas in the shower and were more likely to have them in the shower than at work.
So why does a simple shower have such magic power Science can explain it.
Showering can help to raise our level of dopamine (多巴胺),a hormone(激素) closely related to our creativity. " People vary in terms of their level of creativity according to the activity of dopamine, “explained Alice Flaherty, a famous American neuroscientist.” Taking a warm shower can make us feel relaxed and therefore make the dopamine level rise and bring ‘ Aha! ’ moments to us.”
Besides the chemical changes, showering may give you a break from what you fee] you have been stuck with. Especially when you have thought hard all day about a problem, jumping into the shower can keep you from the outside world so that you can focus on your inner feelings and memories. In this way, according to American psychologist Shelley H. Carson, author of Your Creative Brain, " a showering hour may turn into an ‘incubation(孵化) period’ for your ideas".
Compared with sitting in front of a computer, taking a shower is something we do less frequently in our daily life. When showering, we get a fresh experience with the change of location, temperature and humidity. “New and unexpected experiences can lead to positive changes in thinking," explained Kaufman. “Getting off the couch and jumping in the shower may create a distance and force you to think from a new point of view.”
Showering allows us to enjoy the creative juices of our minds, but it needn’t just be the bathroom where you get your inspiration. For instance, Gertrude Stein, a female American writer and poet, got new ideas by driving around a farm and stopping at different cows until she found the one that most inspired her. So try to create your own way to free your mind, whether it’s a walk near the ocean, a country drive or reading a book at home.
1.According to the passage, what changes can showering cause
A.Bringing the terrible moment to us.
B.Increasing the level of dopamine.
C.Leading to boredom or tiredness.
D.Setting the creative part of the brain free.
2.If one has focused on something all day, showering can help ___________.
A.turn one’s attention inwards
B.draw one's attention to the outside world
C.make an important breakthrough
D.many chemical changes to take place
3.What can be inferred from the passage
A.Changes in the frequency of an action can create a new perspective.
B.It is a good idea to talk with others about their sources of inspiration.
C.Our lives might feel longer and fuller if we frequently try new things.
D.It is helpful to try something different rather than stay focused on a difficult task.
4.The example of Gertrude Stein in the last paragraph is used to ________.
A.encourage readers to find their own ways of getting inspiration
B.point out to readers that it’s hard to find inspiration
C.explain how to link inspiration with readers' daily lives
D.show that creativity often comes from strange places

Adventures Through the Gorge
We put the raft in the calm, cold water. I looked down. The water was like a mirror. It was a foggy morning, so I could barely make out what was down the river. When we took our places in the raft, I was in the back with my dad right across from me. Our tour guide was telling us the basics of rafting, and it seemed that she was patronizing(以高人一等的态度对待) us! I was terrified. Since I was in the back, I was sure I would be the one to fall out. But I had always been an optimist, so I thought it would turn out okay.
Then I looked up and saw a big, gray cloud. I looked down at the river, and it started to get louder and closer to us; soon raindrops pelted down(倾盆而下). Once we moved out of the rain, the clouds faded away, and the sun was shining down on us for the rest of the day. As I looked around, I saw the monstrous, green trees standing over me. It was beautiful.
As we moved farther down the river, I heard the water flowing gracefully. When we moved deeper into the gorge, it got louder and louder. This was our first rapids. It seemed that we were approaching the rapids slowly, but we were at the top of the rapids in the blink of an eye (眨眼的功夫). It felt like time stopped. I was so excited and nervous; I thought I was going to die. It was a bumpy ride down. Getting splashed with water, we raced up and down the rocks. There was not a patch of dry skin on us by the time we hit the bottom.
After we got through the rapids, I was so excited! Going down made me feel I could do anything. Our tour guide told us we were going to approach Category 5 rapids. They were more intense than the Category 1 rapids, and I got a little more nervous. It took us a little while to get to the rapids because we had to go down a long river. We were allowed to jump off the raft and swim down the river until we had to get back.
注意:续写词数应为150左右。
Paragraph 1:
About three minutes later, the Category 5 rapids were coming.

After racing down the rapids, I was no longer scared.

答案以及解析
一、
A.答案：1.D; 2.C; 3.B; 4.B
解析：1.考查简单计算。根据题干和价格可知:$ 900.00 X 2 + $850.00 x 2 = $ 3,500,故选 D。
2.考查细节理解。根据倒数第二段中的"a helicopter flight to the peak of Mt Luxmore"可知,在Kepler Track旅游中,人们可以坐直升机到达Luxmore的山顶,故选C。

B.答案：1-4.ACCD
解析：1.考查推理判断。由第一段中的"But during my younger days, like 4 or 5 years old, we vacationed in places... photo albums"可知,作者四五岁时到坎昆、牙买加和夏威夷这些地方旅行过,作者现在不能判断自己是否能真正地回忆起这些经历,或者是否要通过相册来填补自己记忆的空白。由此可以推断出,作者对到夏威夷去旅游已经没有什么印象,因此作者应该是感到失望的。故A项正确。
2.考查细节理解。由第二段中的"What I suggest is to... and you can save the international travel until they're in high school"可知,作者认为孩子到了高中再出国旅游是合适的。故C项正确。
3.考查词义猜测。根据语境并结合第一段内容可知,作者对于四五岁时的出国旅行已经没有什么印象了。故C项正确。
4.考查主旨大意。作者结合自己的经历告诉读者:过早带孩子出国旅行于孩子而言没有什么太大的意义。作者在第二段中建议孩子到了高中再带他们出国旅行,在最后一段中建议带小孩子在当地旅游。故D选项适合作该文标题。
C.答案：1.B; 2.A; 3.D; 4.A
解析：1.考查细节理解。根据第四段"Showering can help to raise our level of dopamine(多巴胺), a hormone(激素) closely related to our creativity. . . Taking a warm shower can make us feel relaxed and therefore make the dopamine level rise and bring 'Aha!' moments to us"可知,洗澡能提高多巴胺水平。所以B项正确。
2.考查细节理解。根据第五段的内容可知,如果一个人一整天都冥思苦想一个问题,洗个澡就有助于把注意力转移到内心感受上。故选A。
3.考查推理判断。根据最后一段的内容可以推断出尝试一些不同的事情而不是只专注于一件困难的任务是有益的。所以D项的表述符合作者的言外之意。A、B、C三项的表述要么不符合原文之意,要么原文没有提到。故选D。
4.考查细节理解。根据最后一段中的“So try to create your own way to free your mind" 可知,Gertrude Stein的故辑是被用来鼓励读者找到他们6己获得灵感的方式的。故选A。
D.答案：1.A 2.B 3.D 4.B
解析：文章介绍英国的不同的名字,和它们具体所指的地方,虽然这些名字可以被用来代表这个国家,但是含义还是有差别的。
小题1:细节题:从第一段的句子:Did anyone find the names of “Great Britain”, “the United Kingdom”, “England” and “the British commonwealth” which have the same meaning 可知Great Britain 和Britain 都是英国的意思,选A
小题2:细节题:从文章第二段的句子:The British isles refer to the main islands and several thousand small ones as well, which you can see on the map.可知British isles是指两个主岛和成千上万的小岛,选 B
小题3:细节题:从第二段的句子:The British isles refer to the main islands and several thousand small ones as well, which you can see on the map. Great Britain, or Britain, refers to the larger of the two main islands.

小题4:推理题:从文章的内容:Great Britain是整个大不列颠,Scotland 是苏格兰,Edinburgh,是一个城市所以依据写信的地址格式,小的地址在前面,可知如果你想写信给在苏格兰的Edinburgh 的人,地址应该写成Edinburgh, Scotland ,Great Britain,选B
二、答案：GDEFA
解析：①根据A guide dog helps its owner cross the street and do many other things.可知, 导盲犬能帮助主人过马路和做其他很多事情, G项"但是成为导盲犬并不容易"承接上文, 且引出下文对如何驯犬的介绍, 符合语境。
②本段主要讲使狗从小接受训练。上文中的关键信息in its first year与D项中的six weeks old呼应。由空后一句中的Teach it simple commands也可推知选D项。

④根据设空处后面内容可知, 本段介绍了最后的训练阶段是让狗在指导者的监督下为盲人导航。所以F项"让狗进入最后训练阶段"符合语境。
⑤本段是总结段, 根据下文Then they will work as a team.可知, 如果一只狗在学校里表现得很好, 它就准备好为自己的主人服务了, 空后的they指代A项中的the dog和its blind owner。故选A项。

六、答案：
Paragraph 1:
About three minutes later, the Category 5 rapids were coming. The raft raced down the rapids. Water was splashing on the rocks, letting out louder noise. Screaming all the way down, I saw white water all over. I was so nervous because there were five big solid rocks sticking out. If a little careless, we might hit one and get turned upside down. In the blink of an eye, we passed by the last huge rock, entering a small calm ride. When we settled at the bottom, I wanted to go back up and do it all again.
Paragraph 2:
After racing down the rapids, I was no longer scared. "What did you think about the Category 5 rapids " my dad asked. "I was super nervous at first. But when we hit the bottom, I wanted to do it once more." "Would you say you become more confident about yourself " he continued. "Yes, I would say I become more confident about myself," I smiled. Then we walked towards our campsite.
