三、阅读理解
Reading books and looking at pictures are great, but nothing facilitates(促进) learning like travel, especially for teenagers. Not only do they get to see a world beyond their neighborhood, but they get to experience it, feel it, taste it, hear it and better understand the world around them.
After nearly four decades in the classroom and traveling the world, Phyllis Duvall Bailey knew this perhaps better than anyone else.
Becoming engaged in the work in AKA Sorority Inc. in the US, she worked to educate children on the United Nations. There was no doubt in Bailey's mind that the lessons would mean so much more if the students could see these things for themselves.
Starting in 2015, Bailey, 82, set out to take her students to the UN headquarters in New York City to give them a "Window Seat to the World", and thus transformed them into global citizens.
Indeed, it is a great opportunity to give students national and international exposure. Since Bailey saw the students as future leaders, she was desperate to expose them to the UN, its mission, its agendas(议程) and its supporting organizations.
She decided to give $ 10, 000 of her own money to pay for the late June trip, enough to take 10 students aged 14 —17 on a four-night stay in New York. There, they had guided tours of the UN headquarters and the New York City harbor.
It was Quenyaun Payne's first trip to the city and Taylor Sappington's second. Payne, 17, is a senior at Mceachem High School in the state of Georgia, the US. Sappington, 15, is a junior at Therrell High School in Atlanta, Georgia, the US. Both said their visit to the UN was inspiring.
"I like not only how countries are working together but they're focused on common goals like global warming and keeping peace," Sappington said.
Payne commented, "The trip was amazing. I'm so thankful Mrs. Bailey made it possible."
Actually, there are a lot of people grateful for the retired teacher's effort. The United Nations Association of Atlanta recently gave Bailey its Humanitarian Award, and the United Nations Association of the US awarded her with the National Education Award.
But Bailey wasn't looking for recognition or even gratitude. Over those four days in New York, she'd already felt it and seen it in the eyes of those 10 teenagers, Payne and Sappington included, who made the trip.
"It has been a real joy to get to see their reaction to new experiences," she said.
1. The underlined word "this" in Paragraph 2 refers to _____.
A. the benefits of traveling B. good reading habits
C. new teaching methods D. the things teenagers like
2. How did Bailey help students
A. She offered them voluntary opportunities at the UN.
B. She paid for trips that helped students see the world.
C. She paid for them to go to school in other countries.
D. She taught them some useful life-long reading skills.
3. What can we infer from Sappington's words
A. He determines to work for the UN in the future.
B. He shows no interest in global affairs at all.
C. He finds the trip to the UN greatly instructive.
D. He wants to visit New York City once again.
4. What made Bailey most joyful according to the passage
A. Students' gratitude. B. Social recognition.
C. Students' gains. D. Official awards.
四、语法填空
If you feel stressed by responsibilities at work, you should take a step back and identify (识别) those of ① ________ (great) and less importance. Then, handle the most important tasks first so you'll feel a real sense of ② ________ (achieve). Leaving the less important things until tomorrow ③ ________ (be) often acceptable.
Most of us are more focused ④ ________ our tasks in the morning than we are later in the day. So, get an early start and try to be as productive ⑤ ________ possible before lunch. This will give you the confidence you need to get you through the afternoon and go home feeling accomplished.

解析：
三、答案：1-4 ABCC
解析：1.推理判断题。根据第一段中的Reading books and looking at pictures are great, but nothing facilitates(促进) learning like travel, especially for teenagers.可知，读书和看图片是很好的，但是没有什么比旅行更能促进学习的了，尤其是对青少年来说。而Bailey应该更加明白旅行的好处。由此推知，第二段中的画线词this指的是“旅行的益处”。故选A项。
2.细节理解题。根据第六段中的She decided to give $10, 000 of her own money to pay for the late June trip, enough to take 10 students aged 14—17 on a four-night stay in New York.可知，她决定拿出自己的1万美元来支付6月底的旅行费用，这笔钱足够10名14至17岁的学生在纽约停留4个晚上。由此可知，Bailey用自己的钱去支付学生看世界的旅行费用。故选B项。
3.推理判断题。根据第八段“I like not only how countries are working together but they're focused on common goals like global warming and keeping peace,” Sappington said.可知，在这次旅行中他不仅看到了各国如何合作，更看到了它们如何致力于共同的目标。由此推知，他觉得去联合国的旅行很有意义。故选C项。
4.细节理解题。根据最后一段“It has been a real joy to get to see their reaction to new experiences,” she said.可知, Bailey觉得看到学生们对新体验的反应是一件真正的乐事。由此推知，学生们在这次旅行中的收获是她最快乐的事情。故选C项。
四、答案：① greater　② achievement　③ is　④ on　⑤ as　⑥ studies　⑦ regularly　⑧ a　⑨ to bring　⑩ make
解析： ① 考查比较级。本空所填之词和and后的比较级less是并列关系, 使用相同的比较级形式greater。故填greater。
② 考查名词。句意：首先处理重要的事情, 那么你会有成就感。横线前面有介词of, 横线上要使用名词achievement作of的宾语, 表示"成就感"。故填achievement。
③ 考查句子结构和主谓一致。本句中动名词短语"Leaving. . . tomorrow"在句中作主语, 谓语动词使用单数形式, 所以使用is。
④ 考查固定搭配。句意：很多人早晨对任务的注意力要比晚些时候的注意力更集中。be focused on"集中于……", 故填on。
⑤ 考查固定搭配。正是因为人们早晨的注意力更为集中, 所以我们要早起, 要在午饭之前尽可能地高效。短语as. . . as possible"尽可能……", 故填as。
⑥ 考查名词单复数。本句的谓语动词是show, 说明主语是复数名词studies。故填studies。
⑦ 考查副词。副词通常作状语修饰形容词、副词或动词, 形容词通常在句中作定语或表语修饰名词。所以本句中使用副词regularly作状语修饰动词短语take short breaks。故填regularly。
⑧ 考查固定短语。本句是指通过锻炼或做一些你喜欢的事情, 让你的身体和思维休息一会。介词短语for a while"一会儿"。故填a。
⑨ 考查固定短语。句意：如果你找到了喜欢做的事情, 你就不太可能把工作带回家去做。be likely to do sth可能做某事, 故填to bring。
⑩ 考查祈使句。此处表示要保证它是让你释放压力, 而不是让你担忧的事。本句是祈使句, 要用动词原形。故填make。
