"Can we eat this one, Dad " my four-year-old daughter, Alicia, asks. We're on one of our Thursday adventures, searching the nearby woods for eatable mushrooms. She's pointing at a bright-red cap covered with white dots. I pull out my handy mushroom-identification app, which notes that Amanita muscaria, while eatable if prepared properly, is also a known hallucinogen (致幻剂). I have a firm "tell them the truth and be as precise as possible" philosophy and explain what the app says, and that I don't think our Thursday adventures are ready to get quite that adventurous yet.
Watching your kids learn new skills is extraordinarily rewarding, but I've experienced more personal growth than I have at any other point in my life.
Last year, after a winter of practicing skiing on the green tracks for beginners each week, Alicia was french-frying her way down blues and even attempted her first black. That month also witnessed me visiting the mountain more times than in the 15 years combined and I've got myself a partner for life.
It's not all easy—but sometimes that's the point. Alicia practices the violin every day, and although she enjoys it, even 15 minutes of practice can upset her. The trick, I've found, is to let her watch me try to get better at something, too. I start taking piano lessons at 41 years old with the idea that if she sees me struggling as I practice and then improve, she'll understand that things don't come easy, even for grown-ups. I know there's going to be a time when I'll end up on the sideline cheering her on as she finds her own passions. I'm okay with this, and I'm hoping that by then she'll carry the joy of practice and knowledge through life.
4．What does the father imply by saying "I've got myself a partner for life."
A．It is rewarding to learn new skills.
B．Skiing has become his lifelong hobby.
C．He will explore more with his daughter.

A．To prove it is never too old to learn.
B．To set a good example for his daughter.
C．To experience the joy of piano practice.

In recent years, China has witnessed the growth of luxury (奢侈品) brands. In this market, Chinese consumers are now the largest spenders. It's clear that a new generation of young, materialistic people is increasingly relying on luxury brands to improve its self-image.
I am a fashionist too, at least in spirit—I love to look at clothes and shoes. But I don't understand why people spend lots of money on designer labels.
When a young woman buys a handbag that costs two months of her salary, that's a scary thing.
What's interesting is that scientists have found that having luxury things doesn't lead to happiness.
Study after study has shown that although we want material things, when we get them we don't suddenly become "happy" people. In fact, a series of studies by Leaf Van Boven at the University of Colorado, US, has shown that individuals who spend money on travel and similar experiences get more pleasure than those who invest it in material things. That's because experiences are more easily combined with a person's identity. If I travel to Yunnan, that adventure affects how I think in the future. My memories become a part of me.
Moreover, as Van Boven has observed, young people who pursue happiness through "things" are liked less by their peers. People prefer those who pursue happiness through experiences.
It's natural to want to express yourself through your appearance. So my advice is: create a look that isn't tied to a designer label. Convey your own message. Take some lessons from the late Apple co-founder Steve Jobs. He was always in Levis jeans and a black turtleneck. Mark Zuckerberg, founder of Facebook, routinely appears in hoodies and sneakers. These people, successful people, have style. You don't have to break the bank to send a message about who you are.
Take a trip. Go out into the world. Then come back and confidently create your own signature look.
8．What can we infer from the first three paragraphs
A．The author enjoys buying luxury brands herself.
B．The author agrees to spend money on material things.
C．The author is critical of youths tying their looks to designer labels.
D．The author finds it natural for fashionists to follow fashion trends.
9．Leaf Van Boven's studies showed that ____.
A．traveling changes a person's identity greatly
B．people dislike those who love luxuries
C．experiences can bring people more happiness than luxuries
D．luxuries have a negative effect on people's happiness
10．What is the author's advice on expressing oneself
A．Be selective about designer labels.
B．Create your own personal unique style.
C．Choose styles that are simple and comfortable.
D．Try styles like Mark Zuckerberg's.
11．The main purpose of the article is to ____.
A．persuade readers to invest in experiences instead of luxuries
B．prove how luxury leads to an unpleasant life
C．tell how to express yourself through appearances
D．report on a series of studies about luxuries and happiness

Last year, 138,000 San Francisco residents used Airbnb, a popular app designed to connect home renters and travelers. It's a striking number for a city with a population of about 850,000, and it was enough for Airbnb to win a major victory in local elections, as San Francisco voters struck down a debatable rule that would have placed time restrictions and other regulations on short-term rental services.
The company fiercely opposed the measure Proposition F, with a nearly $10 million advertising campaign. It also contacted its San Franciscan users with messages urging them to vote against Proposition F.
Most people think of Airbnb as a kind of couch-surfing app. The service works for one-night stays on road trips and longer stays in cities, and it often has more competitive pricing than hotels. It's a textbook example of the "sharing economy", but not everyone is a fan.
The app has had unintended consequences in San Francisco. As the San Francisco Chronicle reported last year, a significant amount of renting on Airbnb is not in line with the company's image: middle-class families putting up a spare room to help make ends meet. Some users have taken advantage of the service, using it to turn their multiple properties into vacation rentals or even full-time rentals. Backers of Proposition F argued that this trend takes spaces off the conventional, better-regulated housing market and contributes to rising costs.
"The fact is, widespread abuse of short-term rentals is taking much needed housing off the market and harming our neighborhoods," said ShareBetter SF, a group that supported Proposition F. Hotel unions have protested the company's practices in San Francisco and other cities, saying that it creates an illegal hotel system.
San Francisco is in the middle of a long-term, deeply rooted housing crisis that has seen the cost of living explode. Actually, explode is a generous term. The average monthly rent for an apartment is around $4, 000. Located on a narrow outcropping of land overlooking the bay, San Francisco simply doesn't have enough space to accommodate the massive inflow of young, high-salaried tech employees flocking to Silicon Valley.
As the Los Angeles Times reported, some San Francisco residents supported the measure simply because it seemed like a way to check a big corporation. Opponents of Proposition F countered that the housing crisis runs much deeper, and that passing the rule would have discouraged a popular service while doing little to solve the city's existing problems.
12．The intention of Proposition F is to ____.
A．place time limits in local election.
B．set limits on short-term rental.
C．strike down a controversial rule.
D．urge users to vote against Airbnb.
13．What is the negative consequence of Airbnb on San Francisco
A．It shrinks the living space of middle-class families.
B．Users are taken advantage of by the service financially.
C．It makes the house market more competitive.
D．It indirectly leads to high house rental price.
14．The housing crisis in San Francisco results from ____.
A．explosion of the living cost B．its geographic characteristics
C．generosity of local enterprises D．inflow of migrant population
15．The author's attitude toward Proposition F is ____.
A．objective B．supportive C．negative D．indifferent
【答案】12．B
13．D
14．D

二、任务型阅读(共5小题, 每小题2.5分; 满分12.5分)
阅读下面短文, 从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
Most smartphones allow you to run location sharing software that uses the phone's GPS capability to let friends and family know your exact location. There are lots of great uses for this technology. 　16． 　So make sure you're permitted to use an app or service, and pay attention to how you are using it. Here're some important points you may find helpful.
Choose what's best for you. Some location sharing services are games that let you give a shout out when you've turned up at a particular spot. 　17． 　Still others continue to share your location until you change the setting. Be sure you know exactly how your service shares your location.
Know who your friends are.　18． 　This means people can search to see if you're online and add you as a friend. It's important to remember that sharing your location with people you've never met in real life is risky, so you should carefully manage friend requests and share your location only with people you know and trust.
　19． 　Some services automatically stop sending your location after a period of time, but others will send it forever — until you stop it. Review your contact list periodically and delete anyone to whom you no longer feel comfortable revealing your location.
Update parents. Location based services are a great way for teens to let parents know where they are without having to call or text. 　20． 　If you're heading home late at night, you can also use a service like Glympseto share your location as you drive, so they'll know if you have car trouble or get stuck in traffic.
A. Check back often.
B. Keep sending your location.
C. However, these services are not for all children.
D. With its help, you can easily share your location with them.
E. Check ins ease worries so they don't have to follow your every move.
F. Others show where you are all the time or for a period of time you set.
G. Some location services operate like Facebook, where you invite and accept friends.

That morning, I got the train as always. I was a publishing director and was looking forward to embracing a new day of work, as usual.

My speech came back, and I learned how to read again, though much more slowly. I also learned the 31． to keep up. I allowed myself to slow down, and started to enjoy it.
32． , I get rid of my old skin. I grieved the past, its passing and its absence, and started to come to terms 33． it. Now, 10 years later, I look after my grandson a day a week, and my relationship with my family is deeper than ever. If you'd asked me 15 years ago to 34． the importance of the things in my life I might have said work, but now I'm no longer a high-achieving publisher or someone who reads 10 books a week. I'm a 35． man, and if I read 10 books a year, that's pretty good.

【答案】Dear Peter,
Aware of your enthusiasm for the class event theming "Healthy eyes healthy life", I'm writing to inform you of some relevant information.
In a bid to promote good eye care habits, we Chinese celebrate National Eye Day on June 6. At 2 p.m., our event kicked off with a video, featuring the inconvenience people with myopia may suffer. Then an eye specialist shared valuable tips on maintaining good eye hygiene, after which several nurses helped to check up our eyes on the spot until 4 p.m.. The constructive event reminded us that we couldn't emphasize the eye protection too much.
I hope the information is helpful to you.
Yours sincerely,
Li Hua
六、短文续写(满分25分)
47．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。
Dad handed me the bucket and the net with a long, wooden handle. He gave Paulie two dead fish wrapped in newspaper. They were tied up with string like a present. I held my nose, but Paulie held those fish like they were his best baseball cards.
"Since we all want crabs for supper, catch a whole bunch. But just in case you don't, we have leftover broccoli (花椰菜)." Dad said with a wink.
The salty air from Chesapeake Bay filled our noses. This was the best place in the world to catch blue crabs. They like grassy, shadowy water, so Paulie and I headed for our old wooden dock. It was hot, and I sat down and swung my legs over the edge, into the cool water. Paulie struggled to tie the string to one of the slippery fish. Then he slid the extra fish into the bucket and set it in the dark water under the dock for later.
"Here." Paulie handed me the baited string. "Dangle (提着) this down in the water to call the crabs."
Crabs love smelly, old fish, so our first crab didn't take long to come. Its big claw clamped (紧夹住) the bait, and I raised the string real slow so Paulie could net it. But my legs swishing (发出刷刷声) in the water startled that crab, and it let go and floated back to the bottom like a leaf off a tree. Paulie brought up the net and stood there with the handle on the dock.
"Kathy, I can't believe you're going to be in third grade and can't sit still for one minute," he said.
"And I can't believe you're going to be in sixth grade and haven't caught any crabs yet."
I went back to dangling the fish.
注意：1. 续写词数应为150左右2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
Paragraph 1:
"Well, get ready," he urged. "Here comes another one."
Paragraph 2:
The sun began to set.
【答案】Paragraph 1:
"Well, get ready," he urged. "Here comes another one." The sun was hot on our backs. My clothes were already sticking to me, and sweat dripped down our faces. A fly buzzed around my head. I remembered what Paulie had said and sat perfectly still as the new crab clamped onto the fish. But as Paulie scooted forward on his belly to lower the net, he knocked a pebble off the dock and scared that crab away, too. We thought about the big pot waiting and Dad dropping the crabs into the spicy, boiling water. They would turn a beautiful bright red after a few moments, and we'd have a crab feast, cracking the shells and pulling out the sweet, white meat. We had to keep trying.
Paragraph 2:
The sun began to set. We couldn't see into the water anymore. "Remember to get the bucket with the spare bait," I reminded him, slumping along with the net dragging behind me. Suddenly, Paulie grabbed my arm. "Listen," he whispered. Noises came from the bucket Paulie was carrying. There, in the bucket, was a mountain of beautiful blue crabs fighting over our extra fish. We raced to give Dad the crabs. "Whoa!" he said. "You caught a lot!" I looked at Paulie. "Yes!" we mouthed silently to each other with huge grins.

Last year, 138,000 San Francisco residents used Airbnb, a popular app designed to connect home renters and travelers. It's a striking number for a city with a population of about 850,000, and it was enough for Airbnb to win a major victory in local elections, as San Francisco voters struck down a debatable rule that would have placed time restrictions and other regulations on short-term rental services.
The company fiercely opposed the measure Proposition F, with a nearly $10 million advertising campaign. It also contacted its San Franciscan users with messages urging them to vote against Proposition F.
Most people think of Airbnb as a kind of couch-surfing app. The service works for one-night stays on road trips and longer stays in cities, and it often has more competitive pricing than hotels. It's a textbook example of the "sharing economy", but not everyone is a fan.
The app has had unintended consequences in San Francisco. As the San Francisco Chronicle reported last year, a significant amount of renting on Airbnb is not in line with the company's image: middle-class families putting up a spare room to help make ends meet. Some users have taken advantage of the service, using it to turn their multiple properties into vacation rentals or even full-time rentals. Backers of Proposition F argued that this trend takes spaces off the conventional, better-regulated housing market and contributes to rising costs.
"The fact is, widespread abuse of short-term rentals is taking much needed housing off the market and harming our neighborhoods," said ShareBetter SF, a group that supported Proposition F. Hotel unions have protested the company's practices in San Francisco and other cities, saying that it creates an illegal hotel system.
San Francisco is in the middle of a long-term, deeply rooted housing crisis that has seen the cost of living explode. Actually, explode is a generous term. The average monthly rent for an apartment is around $4, 000. Located on a narrow outcropping of land overlooking the bay, San Francisco simply doesn't have enough space to accommodate the massive inflow of young, high-salaried tech employees flocking to Silicon Valley.
As the Los Angeles Times reported, some San Francisco residents supported the measure simply because it seemed like a way to check a big corporation. Opponents of Proposition F countered that the housing crisis runs much deeper, and that passing the rule would have discouraged a popular service while doing little to solve the city's existing problems.
12．The intention of Proposition F is to ____.
A．place time limits in local election.
B．set limits on short-term rental.
C．strike down a controversial rule.
D．urge users to vote against Airbnb.
13．What is the negative consequence of Airbnb on San Francisco
A．It shrinks the living space of middle-class families.
B．Users are taken advantage of by the service financially.
C．It makes the house market more competitive.
D．It indirectly leads to high house rental price.
14．The housing crisis in San Francisco results from ____.
A．explosion of the living cost B．its geographic characteristics
C．generosity of local enterprises D．inflow of migrant population
15．The author's attitude toward Proposition F is ____.
A．objective B．supportive C．negative D．indifferent

阅读下面短文, 从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
Most smartphones allow you to run location sharing software that uses the phone's GPS capability to let friends and family know your exact location. There are lots of great uses for this technology. 　16． 　So make sure you're permitted to use an app or service, and pay attention to how you are using it. Here're some important points you may find helpful.
Choose what's best for you. Some location sharing services are games that let you give a shout out when you've turned up at a particular spot. 　17． 　Still others continue to share your location until you change the setting. Be sure you know exactly how your service shares your location.
Know who your friends are.　18． 　This means people can search to see if you're online and add you as a friend. It's important to remember that sharing your location with people you've never met in real life is risky, so you should carefully manage friend requests and share your location only with people you know and trust.
　19． 　Some services automatically stop sending your location after a period of time, but others will send it forever — until you stop it. Review your contact list periodically and delete anyone to whom you no longer feel comfortable revealing your location.
Update parents. Location based services are a great way for teens to let parents know where they are without having to call or text. 　20． 　If you're heading home late at night, you can also use a service like Glympseto share your location as you drive, so they'll know if you have car trouble or get stuck in traffic.
A. Check back often.
B. Keep sending your location.

I said to my assistant. The 22． colleague contacted my wife, Beth, and she drove me straight to hospital.

32． , I get rid of my old skin. I grieved the past, its passing and its absence, and started to come to terms 33． it. Now, 10 years later, I look after my grandson a day a week, and my relationship with my family is deeper than ever. If you'd asked me 15 years ago to 34． the importance of the things in my life I might have said work, but now I'm no longer a high-achieving publisher or someone who reads 10 books a week.

六、短文续写(满分25分)
47．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。
Dad handed me the bucket and the net with a long, wooden handle. He gave Paulie two dead fish wrapped in newspaper. They were tied up with string like a present. I held my nose, but Paulie held those fish like they were his best baseball cards.
"Since we all want crabs for supper, catch a whole bunch. But just in case you don't, we have leftover broccoli (花椰菜)." Dad said with a wink.
The salty air from Chesapeake Bay filled our noses. This was the best place in the world to catch blue crabs. They like grassy, shadowy water, so Paulie and I headed for our old wooden dock. It was hot, and I sat down and swung my legs over the edge, into the cool water. Paulie struggled to tie the string to one of the slippery fish. Then he slid the extra fish into the bucket and set it in the dark water under the dock for later.
"Here." Paulie handed me the baited string. "Dangle (提着) this down in the water to call the crabs."
Crabs love smelly, old fish, so our first crab didn't take long to come. Its big claw clamped (紧夹住) the bait, and I raised the string real slow so Paulie could net it. But my legs swishing (发出刷刷声) in the water startled that crab, and it let go and floated back to the bottom like a leaf off a tree. Paulie brought up the net and stood there with the handle on the dock.
"Kathy, I can't believe you're going to be in third grade and can't sit still for one minute," he said.
"And I can't believe you're going to be in sixth grade and haven't caught any crabs yet."
I went back to dangling the fish.

46．【答案】Dear Peter,
Aware of your enthusiasm for the class event theming "Healthy eyes healthy life", I'm writing to inform you of some relevant information.
In a bid to promote good eye care habits, we Chinese celebrate National Eye Day on June 6. At 2 p.m., our event kicked off with a video, featuring the inconvenience people with myopia may suffer. Then an eye specialist shared valuable tips on maintaining good eye hygiene, after which several nurses helped to check up our eyes on the spot until 4 p.m.. The constructive event reminded us that we couldn't emphasize the eye protection too much.
I hope the information is helpful to you.
Yours sincerely,
Li Hua
47．【答案】Paragraph 1:
"Well, get ready," he urged. "Here comes another one." The sun was hot on our backs. My clothes were already sticking to me, and sweat dripped down our faces. A fly buzzed around my head. I remembered what Paulie had said and sat perfectly still as the new crab clamped onto the fish. But as Paulie scooted forward on his belly to lower the net, he knocked a pebble off the dock and scared that crab away, too. We thought about the big pot waiting and Dad dropping the crabs into the spicy, boiling water. They would turn a beautiful bright red after a few moments, and we'd have a crab feast, cracking the shells and pulling out the sweet, white meat. We had to keep trying.
Paragraph 2:
The sun began to set. We couldn't see into the water anymore. "Remember to get the bucket with the spare bait," I reminded him, slumping along with the net dragging behind me. Suddenly, Paulie grabbed my arm. "Listen," he whispered. Noises came from the bucket Paulie was carrying. There, in the bucket, was a mountain of beautiful blue crabs fighting over our extra fish. We raced to give Dad the crabs. "Whoa!" he said. "You caught a lot!" I looked at Paulie. "Yes!" we mouthed silently to each other with huge grins.
