12. I think that I always knew I wanted to become an artist. I can’t remember a time when I wasn’t drawing or painting pictures. My oldest sister and my brother were artistic, and watching them draw fascinated me. They had many different art supplies around the house. Boxes of pastels, little ink bottles and pens were very appealing.
My parents and friends soon saw that I had more than a passing interest in art. It came to define much of my image. Relatives gave me art-related birthday gifts. At school I became “the kid who could draw,” a unique distinction, like “brainiest” or “best athlete”.
As I got a little older, I began copying pictures: cartoons, comic books, and magazine illustrations.
My third-grade class wrote essays on what we wanted to be when we grew up. To me it was obvious. We read them aloud, and I told about the types of paintings I would some day try. I’d have turtles with paintbrushes tied to their backs walking around on a big sheet of paper. Or I’d fill squirt guns with different colored paints and shoot at the canvas. I actually tried this with friends! Well, it sounded like a good idea.
One of the only discouraging childhood experiences about my artwork happened in the fourth grade. During study time I was drawing a picture. My teacher took it away and wrote an angry note home to my mother. “David would rather be drawing pictures than doing his work!!!” I couldn’t believe it, three exclamation points. School “art classes” were pretty uninspiring. Art never seemed to be taken as seriously as other subjects.
In the eighth grade, a big career day was held. Months before, we wrote suggestions for careers we wanted to hear about. On the big day, guest speakers from many fields came to talk, but there wasn’t one that came close to an art-related field.
In high school it actually sank in that I was going to be an artist. I already knew. I’d always known. My parents were excited about my choice, too. As I looked into art schools, I felt like doors were being thrown wide open. Until then my art was a private thing, but at art school I found a place where everyone as “the kid who could draw.”

A.his parents' wish B.some schools' appeal
C.his family members' influence D.some experts' suggestion
2.In the fourth grade, the author _________.
A.began copying pictures B.drew with squirt guns

3.From the last paragraph, we can learn that the author _________.
A.thanked his parents very much B.went into a new world of art
C.was still the only kid who could draw D.stopped learning art finally
4.The story inspires people to _________.

答案以及解析
1.答案：professional
解析：考查形容词。句意:你认为在不久的将来计算机能打败专业译员吗 分析句子结构可知,空处修饰名词translators,故应填形容词professional,意为"专业的"。故填professional。
2.答案：stressful
解析：考查词性转换。句意:她发现她的新工作压力非常大,但她决不会放弃。分析句子可知此处为"find+宾语+adj."结构,所以填形容词stressful,意为"压力重的"。 故填stressful。
3.答案：absolutely
解析：句意为: 开车穿越沙漠很难, 但并非完全不可能。修饰形容词impossible应用副词。故填stressful。
4.答案：entirely
解析：考查词性转换。句意:“十四五”规划是中国全面建设社会主义现代化国家新征程的第一个五年。此处修饰动名词短语,应用副词entirely,意为“完全地”。故填entirely。
5.答案：to relax
解析：考查非谓语动词。句意:广场舞被一些人看作放松和锻炼的一种方式,已经引起了许多争论。名词way后可接动词不定式作定语,relax为动词。故填to relax。
6.答案：telling me what happened
7.答案：suffering from；loss
8.答案：in danger
9.答案：stand sharing；who

11.答案：GEAFC
解析： 本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了繁忙的工作之余我们也需要使自己的心平静,并提出了几种使自己平静的方法。
①根据上句"A few simple minutes can create much needed moments of calm."可知短短几分钟就可以创造我们需要的平静;根据下句"You can use these skills to create calm in your busy schedule."可知,你可以用这些技巧在繁忙的日程安排中创造平静。G项表示“你不必找到一座山坐在上面,也不需要花几个小时清空你头脑里的所有想法”,连接上下文。故选G。
②根据上句"Simply walking and taking in the view can reduce stress."可知,仅仅是散步和看风景就能减轻压力,根据下句"It makes room for new ideas to take root."可知,它为新观念生根腾出空间,因此E项“这是让有压力的想法从你的头脑中消失的时候”,符合语境。故选E。
③根据上句"When we think of nature, we think of getting out into the open air, and that's great if you can."可知,当我们一想到大自然时,我们就会想到去户外,接着设空处提出问题:如果你在城市怎么办 随后总结:自然随处可见。A项连接上下文。故选A。
④本段建议用听音乐来使自己平静,F项“放着令人愉快的音乐,甚至工作都可能是‘动听的音乐’”说明音乐的作用,与本段话题一致,且music是关键词。故选F。
⑤本段建议通过做些活动使自己平静。上句提到瑜伽和太极拳,C项中的They指代的是上句提到的瑜伽和太极拳,这两种活动是保持平静的很好的方式,与上句紧密联系。故选C。
12.答案：1-4 CCBA
解析：1.细节理解题。根据第一段中的关键句My oldest sister and my brother were artistic, and watching them draw fascinated me.可知,“我”大姐和哥哥都很有艺术天赋,看他们画画让“我”着迷。由此可推断出,作者对美术产生了兴趣是受家庭成员的影响。故选C。
2.细节理解题。根据第五段中的关键句The only discouraging childhood experience about my artwork happened in the fourth grade.可知,关于“我”的艺术之路,唯一令人沮丧的童年经历发生在四年级。再结合段落内容可知,作者在四年级时,由于在课上画画而被老师批评了。由此可知,在四年级时,老师的行为让作者感到沮丧。故选C。
3.推理判断题。根据最后一段中的关键句Until then my art was a private thing, but at art school I found a place where everyone as "the kid who could draw".可知,在去艺术学校之前,“我”的艺术是私人的事情,但在艺术学校,“我”找到了一个人人都是“会画画的孩子”的地方。由此可推断出,作者进人了一个新的艺术世界。故选B。
4.推理判断题。文章主要讲述了由于受到家人的影响,作者从小就对画画感兴趣,尽管在四年级时遇到过令自己沮丧的事情,但作者没有放弃,最终进入了自己理想的艺术学校。由此可推断出,这个故事激励人们要坚持自己的梦想。故选A。

11. In high school I was very shy, content to hang around with my small group of friends and to concentrate on my courses. I was quickly labeled a "brain". I did so well that by the end of my senior year I had perfect grades and enough college credits to give up an entire quarter of coursework.
But in early June of the senior year, the principal called me into his office. He asked me to give a speech at graduation. I looked at him in surprise, my heart thumping. This was the reward for my hard work I murmured (低语) something and fled the office, blaming myself for staying away from physics, a subject sure to have broken up my perfect record.
I finally agreed to a compromise (妥协). I would share the honor with five other students. I agreed to introduce my friend Judy, who would then give her own, full-length speech.
Graduation day soon arrived. I'd been practicing my speech for days, and I had it memorized. The first half hour of the ceremony passed in a blur(模糊的记忆), and then my moment came. My name was announced. I managed to reach the stage without falling down. I faced my classmates. My voice trembled a little, but mostly it was clear and strong. Within seconds, I was done and headed back to my seat. I accomplished something I'd never dreamed of—I spoke in front of hundreds of people.
Although I didn't realize it at the time, the successful completion of that speech gave me the confidence to take part in classes at college, to give verbal(口头的) reports, and to eventually break free of my shyness. I never would have chosen to give a speech at graduation—or ever. But I'm glad I did. I no longer hesitate when I'm faced with the prospect of doing something I fear. I know it may very well turn out to be one of my shining moments.
1.Why was the writer called a "brain"
A.She was the most intelligent student. B.She was the head of her small group.
C.She was a bookworm all the time. D.She did more coursework for good grades.
2.What can we learn about the writer from the second paragraph
A.She ruined her health by studying hard. B.She got the reward as was expected.
C.She was grateful for giving a speech. D.She wasn't good at physics at school.
3.How did the author feel at the beginning of the graduation speech
A.Excited. B.Moved. C.Scared. D.Embarrassed.
4.What did the speech bring to the author at last
A.She had nothing to fear in life. B.She won enough college credits.
C.She got rid of her shyness. D.She desired to become a speaker.
12. The effects of coffee consumption on health have long been a subject of conflict and uncertainty. Since the 1980s, some have spoken out against coffee as it is harmful to health, while others have welcomed coffee for its supposed benefits to health.
According to a scientific report, mild coffee consumption, three to five cups per day, can be taken as a healthy dietary pattern, along with other healthful behaviours. The report also says that coffee consumption helps reduce the risk of heart disease and it protects against Parkinson's disease.
According to Dr Donald Hensrud of Mayo Clinic, high consumption of coffee has health risks. Dr Hensrud mentions the dangers of high coffee consumption for people with a certain illness that slows the breakdown of caffeine in the body. Some studies say that drinking two or more cups of coffee daily can actually increase the risk of heart disease in these people.
According to conclusions from a recent study led by Dr Gregory Marcus, a doctor from the University of California, San Francisco, daily moderate consumption of coffee, less than 4 cups, is not associated with these issues.
Until the scientific community reaches a general agreement on the effects of coffee consumption on human health, it will be up to the individual to decide whether the benefits of drinking coffee are greater than the risks.
When informed of these possible health benefits and harms of drinking coffee, Harwood, a high school student stated, "Even though there might be some negative effects of drinking coffee, for the most part, coffee drinking sounds good for health, not to mention I need coffee to stay awake."
1.What is people's attitude towards the effects of coffee on health according to Paragraph 1
A.Disapproving. B.Tolerant. C.Doubtful. D.Mixed.
2.What does the underlined word "moderate" in Paragraph 4 probably mean
A.Personal. B.Slight. C.Reasonable. D.Heavy.
3.What can we infer about Harwood
A.He'll keep on drinking coffee. B.He loves his high school life.
C.He often falls asleep in class. D.He has some health problems.
4.What would be the best title for the text
A.Why People Love Coffee B.How Coffee Affects Health
C.The Culture of Coffee Drinking D.The New Findings of Heart Disease
答案以及解析
1.答案：charities
2.答案：dust
3.答案：attractive
4.答案：amusing
解析：此处用来修饰story，使用amuse的形容词形式amusing"搞笑的，逗乐的"，常用来修饰事物。故填amusing。
5.答案：typically
6.答案：had intended/planned to
7.答案：give it up
8.答案：Climbing; is
9.答案：as well as; are
10.答案：When having a rest
11.答案：1-4.ADCC
解析：1.推理判断题。由第一段中的I did so well... had perfect grades and enough college credits to give up an entire quarter of coursework.可推知,作者上学时成绩很好,是最聪明的孩子,所以被称为"brain"。故选A。
2.推理判断题。根据第二段中的blaming myself for staying away from physics, a subject sure to have broken up my perfect record可推知,作者的物理成绩不好,打破了她的完美记录。故选D。A项文中没有提到:作者是个害羞的人,自然不愿意去发表演讲,第二段中的This was the reward for my hard work 是一种反问,故B,C两项错误。故选D。
3.细节理解题。根据第四段中的I managed to reach the stage without falling down.和My voice trembled a little可知,毕业演讲开始的时候作者脚步不稳,声音发抖,非常害怕。故选C。
4.推理判断题。由最后一段中的Although I didn't realize it at the time, the successful completion of that speech gave me the confidence to take part in classes at college, to give verbal reports, and to eventually break free of my shyness.可知,这次演讲给了作者在大学里参与课堂、作口头报告并最终摆脱羞怯的信心。故选C。
12.答案：1-4 DCAB
解析：1.推理判断题。根据第一段第二句Since the 1980s, some have spoken out against coffee as it is harmful to health, while others have welcomed coffee for its supposed benefits to health, 可知, 一些人抵制咖啡, 认为它有害于健康; 另一些人支持咖啡, 认为它对健康有益, 由此可见人们对咖啡的观点是褒贬不一的。故选D。
2.词义猜测题。根据画线词所在句...daily moderate consumption of coffee, less than 4 cups, is not associated with these issues.及上文第二段中的three to five cups per day, can be taken as a healthy dietary pattern(每天3—5杯咖啡可以被视为是健康的饮食方式)可推知, moderate的意思应该是"适量的; 合理的"。故选C。
3.推理判断题。根据文章最后一段中哈伍德的原话"Even though there might be some negative effects of drinking coffee, for the most part, coffee drinking sounds good for health, not to mention I need coffee to stay awake."可知, 哈伍德还会继续喝咖啡。故选A。
4.主旨大意题。全文主要论述了咖啡对人体健康的影响。第一段讲人们对咖啡对健康的影响的看法; 第二、三段主要讲科学报告显示, 适量饮用咖啡对身体有益, 但过度饮用则对身体健康产生不良影响; 第四、五段告诉我们在科学界对此达成共识之前, 饮用咖啡是否利大于弊取决于个人(情况)。故选B。

12. In general, when taking an online degree program you might get resources(资源), such as e-books, interviews, recorded lectures. The resources offered to you for learning online will depend on the college where you take your online program. Some online learning programs may need you to buy paper textbooks in advance, but most of them are using e-books now.
For those colleges that have made the change to use 100% online resources, students can expect to study, using all kinds of advanced technological resources with no need to travel to attend lectures, exams or in-person discussions!
Taking an online learning program, you'll be an officially registered student at your college and have the same access to the resources as an on-campus student, like the digital library, the learning management system (like Blackboard Learn), student union membership and more! Taking an online degree program is similar to taking a degree program on campus, but you have the freedom to arrange your own study schedule.
Your school and your teachers will decide on the resources for each course and will offer learning resources that are best suited to your course of the program. What a biology student needs to learn successfully online will be different from what a history student needs!
Online learning may be a completely new experience for you. If you come from a more traditional learning background, read on to discover how to make the most of the resources you may meet in your online learning journey!

11.How to Manage Your Time
For many high school students it seems that there is never enough time. There are several steps you can take to organize your time better.

12. When it comes to the most famous 20th century painters of the United States, Grandma Moses should be mentioned, although she did not start painting until she was in her late seventies. As she once said to herself, "I would never sit back in a rocking chair, waiting for someone to help me." No one could have had a more active old age.
She was born on a farm in New York State, one of five boys and five girls. At 12 she left home and was in domestic service until at 27, when she married Thomas Moses, the hired hand of one of her employers. They farmed most of their lives, first in Virginia and then in New York State, at Eagle Bridge. She had ten children, five of whom survived; her husband died in 1927.
Grandma Moses painted a little as a child and made embroidery (刺绣) pictures as a hobby, but only changed to oils in old age because her hands became too stiff (僵硬的) to sew and she still wanted to keep busy and pass the time. Her pictures were first sold at the local drugstore and at a market and were soon noticed by a businessman who bought all that she painted.

答案以及解析
1.答案：confidence
解析：句意为：女性应该为自己作为一名女性而自豪，并且要对自己有信心。have confidence in...为固定短语，意为"对……有信心"。故填confidence。
2.答案：challenges
解析：考查名词的复数。句意:已经经历了多次失败,我有了迎接所有挑战的勇气。根据设空处前面的all可知challenge需用复数形式challenges,表示"所有的挑战"。故填challenges。
3.答案：interested
解析： 句意：多亏了一个小事故，我变得对踢足球感兴趣。此处表示"感兴趣的"，所以用interested。故填interested。
4.答案：convenient
解析： 考查词性转换。句意：您方便在4点钟来接我并且送我到机场吗？句式"it is convenient for sb. to do sth."意为"某人方便做某事"，本句是该句式的一般疑问句形式。所给convenience是名词，应填写形容词convenient。故填convenient。
5.答案：unfortunately
解析：考查词性转换。句意:一些证据证明火星上确实存在着水,但遗憾的是,仍然没有生命的迹象。设空处位于分句句首，应用副词作状语，修饰后面的句子；再根据并列连词but可知，火星上没有生命的迹象是遗憾的事情。故填unfortunately。

11.答案：①-⑤CDGBF
解析：①推理判断题。根据段落标题"Make a to-do list every day."可知，本段给出的建议是，每天把要做的事列出清单，根据上文"Be sure to set priorities(优先的事物).(确保设置优先做的事情)"推断C项"Do the most important tasks first.(先做最最重要的事)"符合语境。故选C。
②推理判断题。根据段落标题"Use spare time wisely."可知，本段给出的建议是合理利用空闲时间，下文"If a friend asks you to do something and you have homework to do，realize which is more important and see your friend later(如果一个朋友要你做某件事，而你有作业要做，那么你必须能意识到哪个更重要，可以晚些再和朋友见面)"说明要学会拒绝，合理安排学习时间，D项中的"do not be afraid to say 'no'(还有，不要害怕说"不"。)"对应下文内容，符合语境。故选D。
③联系下文题。下文"If you spend a few minutes at the end of every day going over what you learned, it will mean less time studying when it is time for the exam"说明如果你在每天的最后，花几分钟时间复习学过的知识，就意味着考试来临时更少时间的学习，G项"Don't wait until just before a test to try and remember everything(提到不要等到考试前再复习)"，与下文相符。故选G。
④段落标题题。空格处是段落标题。下文"Studies have shown that getting enough rest helps your memory"说明研究显示充足的休息帮助你记忆，因此推断本段建议要保持充足的睡眠。所以B项"Get a good night's sleep.(睡个好觉。)"。故选B。
⑤联系上文题。上文"Explain that you will be working at certain times and ask them not to disturb you"说明告诉朋友家人你要在特定的时间学习，让他们不要打扰你，下文"you can call your friends later"说明可以晚些时候打电话给你的朋友，F项中的"phone calls"与下文的"call"相符，因此推断F项"不要在你预留学习的时间接电话"，符合文章。故选F。

3.词义猜测题。根据本句"Between the 1930s and her death, she produced some 2,000 pictures: careful and lively portrayals of the country life she had known for so long, with a wonderful sense of color and form."可知,她两千多幅画里,主要描绘的是她所熟悉的乡村生活。"portrayals"是指对乡村生活的描述。故选B。
4.主旨大意题。本文是一篇人物传记类记叙文,介绍了20世纪美国著名的画家Grandma Moses的生平及作品信息。B项中pioneer与文章内容不符,C项只是部分内容,D项说法错误,文章并没有说她是20世纪最好的画家。故选A。
