Getting electricity has always been a
problem for the 173 people living in Nuevo Saposoa, a small village in Peru,
South America. However, things went from bad to worse in March 2015 after heavy
rains damaged the only power cables in the area. The villagers were forced to
use oil lamps, which are not only expensive but also dangerous because of the
harmful gases they produce.
Luckily, researchers at the University of
Technology (UT) in Lima, Peru heard about their problem and found a wonderful
solution. They made a lamp that can be powered by plants and soil, both of
which can be easily found in the Amazonian rainforest where the village lies.
The lamp takes energy from a plant growing in a wooden box and uses it to light
up an LED light bulb.
While that may sound amazing and even
impossible, the science behind the idea is quite simple. As plants create their
food (using the sun's energy, water and chemicals from the soil), they also
produce waste which they return to the soil. Tiny animals in the soil eat this
waste and they produce electrons—the building blocks of electrical energy. The
UT team put special sticks inside the soil to capture the energy and keep it in
the lamp's batteries for later use. The researchers say a single charge can
power a 50-watt LED light for two hours —enough time for local villagers to get
their evening work done.
The university gave ten Plant Lamps to the
villagers of Nuevo Saposoa in October 2015. So far, they have been a huge
success! Elmer Ramirez, the UT professor who invented the lamp, believes the
Plant Lamp could help improve the lives of many people, especially in small
rainforest communities, 42% of whom have no electricity.
（1）What are the problems of oil lamps according to Paragraph 1
A．They are difficult to use and create pollution.
B．They are expensive to buy and easily damaged.
C．They are difficult to repair and produce little light.
D．They are expensive to use and can be bad for health.
（2）The electricity made by the Plant Lamp comes from ______.
A．plant food B．plant waste
C．the soil's heat D．the sun's energy
（3）What is TRUE about the Plant lamp
A．It can be made by local people.
B．It is much easier to use than oil lamps.
C．It can produce all the electricity the village needs.
D．The things it needs to make electricity are easy to find.
（4）The Plant Lamp's inventor believes it could be most helpful for _____.
A．rainforest communities B．cars
C．poor people in cities D．farmers
（5）What is the purpose of the passage
A．To report on a new invention.
B．To explain a new scientific theory.
C．To describe how electricity is made.
D．To discuss the problems of poor villages.

An American woman living in Wisconsin (威斯康星州) offered to
teach English to a Japanese woman who had moved into the same community.
"Before each lesson, and on each and every visit," the American
reported, "the Japanese lady brought me a gift-a book, some paper
sculpture, flowers, or candy. It was embarrassing."
Unknowingly, this American was experiencing
a part of protocol (礼仪) rooted centuries deep in the Japanese culture.
In America, valuable gifts are surely out.
A proper (适宜的) behaviour on a gift is to take the person to dinner, or to an
entertainment or a sporting event. On the contrary, gift-giving is a custom in
Japan. According to Business Tokyo magazine, among the Japanese
"gift-giving is a necessity, not only a small thing as in the West".
In Japan the proper gift is thought to express the giver's true friendship,
gratitude, and respect far better than words can, So if you plan to visit Japan
or to have Japanese visit you here, be prepared.
So you know nowadays gift-giving plays a
very important role in society. Now let's see what happens in other countries.
Australia is known for its kindness and
honesty. So proper gifts, such as a business diary, a paperweight, or a coffee
cup might be presented as a memento (纪念品) of a business meeting. At a trade
show, T-shirts, ties, baseball caps, or a pin may be proper mementos. Anything
more than these types of gifts could cause embarrassment.
（1）What does the underlined word "It" refer to in the first paragraph
A．The gifts were so small and poor.
B．The Japanese woman was not good at learning English.
C．She didn't know how to teach the Japanese woman.
D．The Japanese woman brought gifts on each and every visit.
（2）Which of the following CANNOT be presented as a memento of a business meeting in Australia
A．A business diary. B．A coffee cup.
C．A gold watch. D．A paperweight.
（3）Which country is NOT mentioned in the passage
A．The USA B．Japan C．China D．Australia
（4）What may the passage talk about in the following paragraphs
A．Why Australians are kind and honest.
B．What the difference between America and Australia is.
C．What happens in other countries.
D．How an Australian should behave in America.
（5）What does the passage show
A．People should give some valuable gifts when going to different countries.
B．Gift-giving is an important kind of protocol nowadays.
C．Bringing gifts often makes a giver embarrassed.
D．An expensive gift will make an Australian angry.

【解析】【分析】文章大意：本文是篇说明文，介绍了一项新发明．它能够让没有供电的雨林地区的人们利用丰富的植物资源制造一种新的“植物电灯”。
（1）细节理解题。从首段的最后一句中关于oil lamps的定语从句which are not only expensive but also dangerous because of the harmful gases they produce可知，油灯是一种不仅贵而且还有害的东西，故选D。
（2）推理判断题。从第三段的第三句Tiny animals in the soil eat this waste and they produce electrons可知，土壤里面的微生物吃掉了植物产生的废物并生成了电子，因此这种植物灯所产生的电来源于植物所产生的废物，故选B。
（3）推理判断题。A选项，根据第二段第一句可知植物灯并不是当地人制作的，而是由一些调查专家所做（researchers at the University of Technology （UT） in Lima）；B选项，植物灯的优势在于不贵且无污染，而非使用方便；C选项，从倒数第二段的末句The researchers say a single charge can power a 50-watt Led light for two hours-enough time for local villagers to get their evening work done可知，植物灯并不能生产出人们所需要的全部电能，它只能产生供人们顺利完成晚上工作的电能；D选项，植物灯生电的材料主要是植物，而植物在雨林地区很容易找到；故选D。
（4）细节理解题。根据the Plant Lamp could help improve the lives of many people，especially small rainforest communities，可知该植物灯更多是用于那些没有供电的地区，如热带雨林，故选A。

（1）细节理解题。根据文中第一段中的His novels expose (揭露) the darkness of capitalism (资本主义) from different points of view, describe the difficult life of lower class, and praise their friendship and love to happy life.可知欧·亨利的作品的特色是揭露资本主义的黑暗，描述贫穷人民的困苦生活，赞扬他们之间的友谊和对生活的的热爱。故没有的是对美国人的真爱和友谊的描述，故选C。
（2）细节理解题。根据最后一段中的Of course not, someone just puts their dirty behaviour under their beautiful mask可知是描述的在美丽外表下的肮脏的内里，故选C。
（3）词义猜测题。根据这个划线词所在的句子的意思可知，欧·亨利只是使用这种方式来揭露无法分辨好坏的现实，可知distinguish是分辨、区分的意思，tell有分辨的意思，故选A。
（4）推理判断题。根据全文内容可知这是在介绍欧·亨利和他作品的特色，因此是在一个书评中的文章，选项a book comment一个书评符合题意，故选B。

（2）细节理解题。根据文中第五段中的So proper gifts, such as a business diary, a paperweight, or a coffee cup might be presented as a memento (纪念品) of a business meeting可知在一个商业会面的纪念品一般是a business diary, a paperweight, or a coffee cup等，没有a gold watch，故选C。
（3）细节理解题。根据第三段中提到的America，Japan和第五段中的Australia可知选项中的China没有被提到过，故选C。
（4）推理判断题。第一段举例说明美国人和日本人送礼的时间和方式的不同，三段说明了一下美国和日本的送礼文化，第五段说了一下澳大利亚的送礼文化，则接着第六段应继续举例其他国家的情况，故选C。

四、阅读理解。
17．阅读理解
Getting electricity has always been a
problem for the 173 people living in Nuevo Saposoa, a small village in Peru,
South America. However, things went from bad to worse in March 2015 after heavy
rains damaged the only power cables in the area. The villagers were forced to
use oil lamps, which are not only expensive but also dangerous because of the
harmful gases they produce.
Luckily, researchers at the University of
Technology (UT) in Lima, Peru heard about their problem and found a wonderful
solution. They made a lamp that can be powered by plants and soil, both of
which can be easily found in the Amazonian rainforest where the village lies.
The lamp takes energy from a plant growing in a wooden box and uses it to light
up an LED light bulb.
While that may sound amazing and even
impossible, the science behind the idea is quite simple. As plants create their
food (using the sun's energy, water and chemicals from the soil), they also
produce waste which they return to the soil. Tiny animals in the soil eat this
waste and they produce electrons—the building blocks of electrical energy. The
UT team put special sticks inside the soil to capture the energy and keep it in
the lamp's batteries for later use. The researchers say a single charge can
power a 50-watt LED light for two hours —enough time for local villagers to get
their evening work done.
The university gave ten Plant Lamps to the
villagers of Nuevo Saposoa in October 2015. So far, they have been a huge
success! Elmer Ramirez, the UT professor who invented the lamp, believes the
Plant Lamp could help improve the lives of many people, especially in small
rainforest communities, 42% of whom have no electricity.
（1）What are the problems of oil lamps according to Paragraph 1
A．They are difficult to use and create pollution.
B．They are expensive to buy and easily damaged.
C．They are difficult to repair and produce little light.
D．They are expensive to use and can be bad for health.
（2）The electricity made by the Plant Lamp comes from ______.
A．plant food B．plant waste
C．the soil's heat D．the sun's energy
（3）What is TRUE about the Plant lamp
A．It can be made by local people.
B．It is much easier to use than oil lamps.
C．It can produce all the electricity the village needs.
D．The things it needs to make electricity are easy to find.
（4）The Plant Lamp's inventor believes it could be most helpful for _____.
A．rainforest communities B．cars
C．poor people in cities D．farmers
（5）What is the purpose of the passage
A．To report on a new invention.
B．To explain a new scientific theory.
C．To describe how electricity is made.
D．To discuss the problems of poor villages.
【答案】（1）D
（2）B
（3）D
（4）A
（5）A
【知识点】科普类；说明文
【解析】【分析】文章大意：本文是篇说明文，介绍了一项新发明．它能够让没有供电的雨林地区的人们利用丰富的植物资源制造一种新的“植物电灯”。
（1）细节理解题。从首段的最后一句中关于oil lamps的定语从句which are not only expensive but also dangerous because of the harmful gases they produce可知，油灯是一种不仅贵而且还有害的东西，故选D。
（2）推理判断题。从第三段的第三句Tiny animals in the soil eat this waste and they produce electrons可知，土壤里面的微生物吃掉了植物产生的废物并生成了电子，因此这种植物灯所产生的电来源于植物所产生的废物，故选B。
（3）推理判断题。A选项，根据第二段第一句可知植物灯并不是当地人制作的，而是由一些调查专家所做（researchers at the University of Technology （UT） in Lima）；B选项，植物灯的优势在于不贵且无污染，而非使用方便；C选项，从倒数第二段的末句The researchers say a single charge can power a 50-watt Led light for two hours-enough time for local villagers to get their evening work done可知，植物灯并不能生产出人们所需要的全部电能，它只能产生供人们顺利完成晚上工作的电能；D选项，植物灯生电的材料主要是植物，而植物在雨林地区很容易找到；故选D。
（4）细节理解题。根据the Plant Lamp could help improve the lives of many people，especially small rainforest communities，可知该植物灯更多是用于那些没有供电的地区，如热带雨林，故选A。
（5） 主旨大意题。本文主要介绍了一项新发明——植物灯，故选A。
【点评】考查阅读理解，本文介绍了一种新的发明，学术性较强不如故事类的阅读简单。但是通过读题干，去相对应的段落中去找相对应的句子去判断答案即可。
18．阅读理解
O. Henry is one of the American famous
short story writers. His novels expose (揭露) the darkness of capitalism (资本主义) from different points of view, describe the difficult life of
lower class, and praise their friendship and love to happy life.
As we all know, O. Henry's endings are
always unexpected. He would suddenly change the inner world of the characters
in an unbelievable way. For example, The Cop and the Anthem is one of the
typical surprising endings of
O.
Henrys novels. And O. Henry just used this way to expose the reality of being
unable to distinguish the good from the bad.
The artistic effects of O. Henry's endings
don't always appear in the end. In The Cop and the Anthem, both an attractive
woman and a well-dressed customer give readers a perfect feeling. In fact, they
are not the people that we think, but they really exist in our society. Is
everyone in upper-class noble, kind and well-behaved Of course not, someone
just puts their dirty behaviour under their beautiful mask. In short, O.
Henry's endings expose the public moral (道德) of capitalism going from bad to worse
in a humorous way.
（1）Which is NOT the feature of O. Henry's novels
A．His novels expose the darkness of capitalism.
B．His novels describe the difficult life of lower class.
C．His novels praise the Americans' real friendship and true love.
D．His novels reflect the reality of being unable to distinguish the good from the bad.
（2）What did O. Henry want to do by describing an attractive woman and a well-dressed customer
A．To give readers a perfect feeling.

A．Tell. B．Accept. C．Refuse. D．Respect.
（4）We can find this article in ______.
A．a travel guide B．a book comment C．a newspaper D．a book ad
（5）What is the best title for the passage
A．O. Henry and his novels B．The Capitalism in America
C．O. Henry D．The Cop and the Anthem
【答案】（1）C
（2）C
（3）A
（4）B
（5）A
【知识点】文学艺术类；说明文
【解析】【分析】文章大意：本文主要介绍了欧·亨利和他的作品的特点。
（1）细节理解题。根据文中第一段中的His novels expose (揭露) the darkness of capitalism (资本主义) from different points of view, describe the difficult life of lower class, and praise their friendship and love to happy life.可知欧·亨利的作品的特色是揭露资本主义的黑暗，描述贫穷人民的困苦生活，赞扬他们之间的友谊和对生活的的热爱。故没有的是对美国人的真爱和友谊的描述，故选C。
（2）细节理解题。根据最后一段中的Of course not, someone just puts their dirty behaviour under their beautiful mask可知是描述的在美丽外表下的肮脏的内里，故选C。
（3）词义猜测题。根据这个划线词所在的句子的意思可知，欧·亨利只是使用这种方式来揭露无法分辨好坏的现实，可知distinguish是分辨、区分的意思，tell有分辨的意思，故选A。

An American woman living in Wisconsin (威斯康星州) offered to
teach English to a Japanese woman who had moved into the same community.
"Before each lesson, and on each and every visit," the American
reported, "the Japanese lady brought me a gift-a book, some paper
sculpture, flowers, or candy. It was embarrassing."
Unknowingly, this American was experiencing
a part of protocol (礼仪) rooted centuries deep in the Japanese culture.
In America, valuable gifts are surely out.
A proper (适宜的) behaviour on a gift is to take the person to dinner, or to an
entertainment or a sporting event. On the contrary, gift-giving is a custom in
Japan. According to Business Tokyo magazine, among the Japanese
"gift-giving is a necessity, not only a small thing as in the West".
In Japan the proper gift is thought to express the giver's true friendship,
gratitude, and respect far better than words can, So if you plan to visit Japan
or to have Japanese visit you here, be prepared.
So you know nowadays gift-giving plays a
very important role in society. Now let's see what happens in other countries.
Australia is known for its kindness and
honesty. So proper gifts, such as a business diary, a paperweight, or a coffee
cup might be presented as a memento (纪念品) of a business meeting. At a trade
show, T-shirts, ties, baseball caps, or a pin may be proper mementos. Anything
more than these types of gifts could cause embarrassment.
（1）What does the underlined word "It" refer to in the first paragraph
A．The gifts were so small and poor.
B．The Japanese woman was not good at learning English.
C．She didn't know how to teach the Japanese woman.
D．The Japanese woman brought gifts on each and every visit.
（2）Which of the following CANNOT be presented as a memento of a business meeting in Australia
A．A business diary. B．A coffee cup.
