I realized something this morning. I have been writing for 34 years. It all started when I was just 18 years old. As a boy I had read literally(确实) hundreds of books. I had a thirst for knowledge that seemingly could never fade. Then suddenly I found I had something I wanted to share. I tried to ignore it, but as any writer will tell you once the ideas awaken inside of you they won't leave you alone until you write them down. I didn't have a computer, a word processor, or even a typewriter. Still, I grabbed a pen and lined notebook paper and wrote everything that was burning inside of me.
When I was done I didn't know how to share it. There was no Internet back then, no smartphones, or no social media. I sought out the editor(编辑) of my local county newspaper and asked him to print what I had written. He was a good man full of both wisdom and kindness. He not only printed my first story but agreed to publish(刊登) anything else I was willing to write. I continued to write new articles each week and shared them first with other local papers and later online as well. Years later at the urging of my readers I even self-published two collections of my stories in book form.
Through my writing I slowly became better than I was. In my writings I encountered my best self. In my writings I discovered the goodness and light that lie in us all. In my writings I found great love and joy and encouraged others to choose love and joy as well. I also found that we all are writers whether we put pen to paper or not. With every choice we make, with every thought we hold, and with everything we do we are writing our own life story.
Lance Wubbels once wrote, "I hope you realize your life is truly your life. It belongs to you. It is your story to write with love. Day by day, line by line, write it well."
1.As a boy, when the author found he had something he wanted to share, ______.
A.he wrote it down B.he ignored it
C.he shared it on social media D.he told it to a writer
2.How did the author begin his writing career
A.He was hired as a newspaper editor. B.He put his stories online by himself.
C.He self-published two books. D.He was helped by a local newspaper editor.
3.What does the author think of writing
A.Writing takes practice and efforts. B.Writing can benefit oneself and others.
C.Writing helps people tell right from wrong. D.Only with a pen can one write his life story.
4.Which of the following can be the best title for the text
A.A way to be a writer B.A way to share ideas
C.Living is writing D.Writing is the source of love

One week after I started working in Beijing, I decided to visit a place of interest called the Summer Palace. Before setting off, I researched into it on the Internet. The Summer Palace is composed mostly of a lake, but it's surrounded by beautiful greenery(青葱的草木) and a walkway that circles the lake. It is recommended that you give the Summer Palace about three hours. If you try to walk around it, it could take five or six hours. With that knowledge of it, I set off.
The highlight of the tour had to be the view from the Tower of Buddhist Incense. It sits on the top of a large hill overlooking the lake and that is worth the climb. It was built as a place to worship(敬奉) Buddha. And in the Summer Palace, unlike most of other places, photography isn't allowed in most of the building. Most of the statues of Buddha and the other artifacts(手工艺品) are off-limits to photos.
Another highlight was seeing the stage created for the Dowager Empress where she watched the opera and other theater items. There are box seats(包厢座位) that surround the stage and it is the largest stage created in all of Imperial China. You could almost imagine royalty(王室成员) reviewing the actors from the boxes and the stage.
I do recommend taking a boat ride if you go, which takes you from one side of the lake to the other side where you can see another set of buildings. And it is fun. You can also rent an electric or paddle boat if you want. But since it was just me, I went on one of the biggest boats with other people.
I spent another four hours wandering around the Summer Palace. But I didn't see all of it because it was getting dark. How I wish I could visit it again.
1.Before setting off to the Summer Palace, the author _________.
A.asked others about it B.didn't think it was large
C.didn't think it was small D.learned something about it
2.What does the underlined word "off-limits" in Paragraph 2 probably mean
A.Forbidden. B.Allowed. C.Charged. D.Limited.
3.What do we know about the second highlight mentioned in the text
A.It sits on the top of a hill. B.It is the largest stage all over China.
C.Operas are performed there at times. D.It was for royalty to watch performances.
4.Which of the following correctly describes the author's tour
A.She spent 4 hours in the Summer Palace. B.She didn't enjoy the trip because it was too late.
C.She took a boat by herself. D.She only toured parts of the Summer Palace.
D
The Forbidden City is well known for being full of Chinese cultural and historical relics. But Masters in the Forbidden City (《我在故宫修文物》) does not just focus on the stories of the past. Instead, the documentary movie focuses on ordinary people — the restorers(修复者) of relics and antiquities.
The stories are told at a slow and relaxed pace, reflecting the restorers' work. Restoration of cultural relics and antiques can be time-consuming, and sometimes boring. Yet these restorers' patience and peace of mind are especially precious in the society where everything is changing so fast. "If you choose this job, you have to stand hours of work sitting on a chair. You need to be quiet and get used to being quiet," says Wang Jin, an ancient clock repair expert.
A touching part of the documentary is the spirit of craftsmanship in the restorers. "Years of humdrum work requires not only skill, but also faith and spirit," China Daily commented. "Looking for precision and perfection, devoting yourself to work, patience, loneliness... All these qualities come from the 'craftsman spirit'."
But unlike the popular idea of serious experts who sit around being serious, the documentary shows off the enthusiasm of the restorers. They play their guitars and make jokes about each other after a long day of restoration work.
One scene that has been very popular with Internet users features a young female restorer riding a bicycle through the empty Forbidden City on a Monday. While she is doing this, a narrator says, "The last person to do this was Puyi, the last emperor of the Qing Dynasty."
Masters in the Forbidden City has proved wrong many people's ideas about antique restorers, allowing them to realize that they are not old, dull professors, but people in their 40s, 30s and even 20s who can be quite pleasing to the eye.
1.What's the main purpose of the documentary Masters in the Forbidden City
A.To show people how antiques are restored.
B.To display relics seldom seen by ordinary people.
C.To draw attention to antique restorers' enthusiasm.
D.To praise the craftsmanship of Chinese antique restorers.
2.According to Wang Jin, we can learn that _______.
A.he often gets tired of his work
B.there is no need to do restoration work fast
C.antique restorers need to be patient and peaceful
D.it takes years of hard work to adapt to antique restoration
3.What does the underlined word "humdrum" in Paragraph 3 probably mean
A.Boring. B.Different. C.Relaxing. D.Unusual.
4.What's the purpose of using the bicycle-riding scene in the documentary
A.To remind the audience of the last emperor.
B.To show the strange hobby of young antique restorers.
C.To encourage the young to consider a career in antique restoration in the future.
D.To show that the documentary breaks the old, dull image of antique restorers.

I fell in love with Yosemite National Park the first time I saw it. My parents took us there for camping.

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。续写的词数应为150左右。
I will share the kind act that I met with all of you. We had dozens of restaurant options within a short distance, so we often took advantage of this luxury. On one occasion, I ran out to get some food. I saw the clouds in the distance and decided I could make it there and come back in time, but I was wrong. I was about to leave the restaurant when the rain just poured. The street was flooded within minutes.
But I had my little girl and husband waiting for me back at home, and they were hungry, so I knew I had to make a run for it. The owner of the restaurant tried to encourage me to wait inside, but I insisted that I should go. At this point, he grabbed his umbrella and said, “Okay, let's go.” Of course I tried to convince him that it wasn't necessary for him to walk me home, but I knew I wouldn't prevent him from doing so. So off we went. We quickly realized that the umbrella wouldn't help much in keeping us dry. He walked me all the way to my apartment building, where he said goodbye and ran back to the restaurant.
Again I encountered this act of kindness when I was making my way to the bus. As I waited at the crosswalk, it began to rain lightly. Nothing was too bad, but a young guy nearby felt like it was heavy enough to make him step next to me and hold his umbrella above both of us. After a while, the lights turned green. I thanked him and walked across the street.
Getting around the city when you are six months pregnant and have a two-year-old kid can be challenging sometimes. One spring afternoon, I realized I needed something from the store to finish preparing for dinner. The weather seemed a bit questionable but the store was around the corner so I decided to risk it.
Paragraph 1:
It wasn't raining when we left so we didn't carry my umbrella.______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

As we crossed the street the woman offered me her umbrella._________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

C
答案：1-4.DADD
解析：1.细节理解题。由第一段第二句Before setting off, I researched into it on the Internet.可知作者在出发前上网了解了一些颐和园的情况,故选D。
2.词义猜测题。第二段第四句And in the Summer Palace, unlike most of other places, photography isn't allowed in most of the building.表明在这个建筑中的大部分地方拍照是不被允许的,故可以推测大多数的佛像和手工艺品是禁止用相机拍照的,所以A正确。

②空前一句讲千里之行始于足下,下文讲相反,耐力是通过比前一天的目标多做一点来建立的,故G项"你不会在第一天跑10公里来进行马拉松训练"承接上文,引出下文,故选G。
③此空是一个小标题。结合上下文的小标题可知,应在A项与B项中选。下文讲如果你觉得到目前为止你还没有取得任何进展,你会很难保持积极性,这时你应仔细考虑自己的目标。故A项"衡量你的目标"符合语境。
④根据本段小标题Exercise your willpower和下文内容可知,D项"意志力和自律是相辅相成的"切题。D项中的Willpower与小标题中的willpower相呼应。
⑤空前讲上述自律技巧已被证明是非常有效的,空后讲这是快乐和成功的生活的关键,故F项承上启下,既说明自律的效果,又表述了自律有助于成功。

第二节
答案：①to sing②an③themselves④are uploaded⑤original⑥which⑦Inspired⑧performance⑨has become⑩on
解析：①考查动词不定式。opportunity后常用不定式作后置定语,表示“做某事的机会”,故填to sing。
②考查冠词。此处指你所需要的只是一台摄像机和一个互联网连接,表泛指,且Internet以元音音素开头,故用不定冠词an。
③考查反身代词。分析句子结构可知,主语Virtual choir members和谓语动词record的宾语指代一致,故填反身代词themselves。
④考查动词的时态、语态和主谓一致。此处缺少谓语,由该句中的they are put together及语境可知应用一般现在时,此处指这些视频被上传到互联网上,These videos和upload之间为被动关系,应用被动语态,由主语These videos可知谓语动词应用复数形式。故填are uploaded。
⑤考查形容词。设空处修饰后面的复数名词compositions,应用形容词作定语,故填original。
⑥考查定语从句的引导词。设空处无提示词且前面有逗号,此处指在接下来的10年里,他的原创作品开始在合唱团和歌手中变得非常受欢迎,这促使了虚拟合唱团的创建,结合此处表达的意思可知是前面的内容导致了后面的结果,由此可推断设空处引导的是非限制性定语从句,先行词是前面主句的内容,故用which。
⑦考查过去分词。该句中已有谓语动词,所以此处应用非谓语动词的一种形式,此处的逻辑主语是he,二者之间是被动关系,故填过去分词Inspired,作原因状语。
⑧考查名词。根据空前的one可知,此处应用单数名词,故填 performance,表示“演出”。
⑨考查动词的时态和主谓一致。设空处在句中充当谓语,由时间状语Since then 可知,此处应用现在完成时,且主语为the virtual choir,谓语动词应用单数形式,故填has become。
⑩考查介词。have a positive influence on...意为“对……有积极的影响”。故填on。
第三节

答案：
Paragraph 1:
It wasn't raining when we left so we didn't carry my umbrella. We quickly crossed the street to buy what we needed in our daily life. We were walking out of the store when a heavy rain fell. We wanted to cross the street and had to wait for the lights to turn green. I noticed a young couple watching us.
Paragraph 2:
As we crossed the street the woman offered me her umbrella. I said my apartment building was nearby but she insisted that I take it. I refused, but she said it just started to pour. At the same time, she handed me the umbrella and left with her husband. Staring at her figure, I was too moved to express thanks to her. I went home with the umbrella and put it away in a secret place. It was a sign of kindness.

I realized something this morning. I have been writing for 34 years. It all started when I was just 18 years old. As a boy I had read literally(确实) hundreds of books. I had a thirst for knowledge that seemingly could never fade. Then suddenly I found I had something I wanted to share. I tried to ignore it, but as any writer will tell you once the ideas awaken inside of you they won't leave you alone until you write them down. I didn't have a computer, a word processor, or even a typewriter. Still, I grabbed a pen and lined notebook paper and wrote everything that was burning inside of me.
When I was done I didn't know how to share it. There was no Internet back then, no smartphones, or no social media. I sought out the editor(编辑) of my local county newspaper and asked him to print what I had written. He was a good man full of both wisdom and kindness. He not only printed my first story but agreed to publish(刊登) anything else I was willing to write. I continued to write new articles each week and shared them first with other local papers and later online as well. Years later at the urging of my readers I even self-published two collections of my stories in book form.
Through my writing I slowly became better than I was. In my writings I encountered my best self. In my writings I discovered the goodness and light that lie in us all. In my writings I found great love and joy and encouraged others to choose love and joy as well. I also found that we all are writers whether we put pen to paper or not. With every choice we make, with every thought we hold, and with everything we do we are writing our own life story.
Lance Wubbels once wrote, "I hope you realize your life is truly your life. It belongs to you. It is your story to write with love. Day by day, line by line, write it well."
1.As a boy, when the author found he had something he wanted to share, ______.
A.he wrote it down B.he ignored it
C.he shared it on social media D.he told it to a writer
2.How did the author begin his writing career
A.He was hired as a newspaper editor. B.He put his stories online by himself.
C.He self-published two books. D.He was helped by a local newspaper editor.
3.What does the author think of writing
A.Writing takes practice and efforts. B.Writing can benefit oneself and others.
C.Writing helps people tell right from wrong. D.Only with a pen can one write his life story.
4.Which of the following can be the best title for the text
A.A way to be a writer B.A way to share ideas
C.Living is writing D.Writing is the source of love

One week after I started working in Beijing, I decided to visit a place of interest called the Summer Palace. Before setting off, I researched into it on the Internet. The Summer Palace is composed mostly of a lake, but it's surrounded by beautiful greenery(青葱的草木) and a walkway that circles the lake. It is recommended that you give the Summer Palace about three hours. If you try to walk around it, it could take five or six hours. With that knowledge of it, I set off.
The highlight of the tour had to be the view from the Tower of Buddhist Incense. It sits on the top of a large hill overlooking the lake and that is worth the climb. It was built as a place to worship(敬奉) Buddha. And in the Summer Palace, unlike most of other places, photography isn't allowed in most of the building. Most of the statues of Buddha and the other artifacts(手工艺品) are off-limits to photos.
Another highlight was seeing the stage created for the Dowager Empress where she watched the opera and other theater items. There are box seats(包厢座位) that surround the stage and it is the largest stage created in all of Imperial China. You could almost imagine royalty(王室成员) reviewing the actors from the boxes and the stage.
I do recommend taking a boat ride if you go, which takes you from one side of the lake to the other side where you can see another set of buildings. And it is fun. You can also rent an electric or paddle boat if you want. But since it was just me, I went on one of the biggest boats with other people.
I spent another four hours wandering around the Summer Palace. But I didn't see all of it because it was getting dark. How I wish I could visit it again.
1.Before setting off to the Summer Palace, the author _________.
A.asked others about it B.didn't think it was large
C.didn't think it was small D.learned something about it
2.What does the underlined word "off-limits" in Paragraph 2 probably mean
A.Forbidden. B.Allowed. C.Charged. D.Limited.
3.What do we know about the second highlight mentioned in the text
A.It sits on the top of a hill. B.It is the largest stage all over China.
C.Operas are performed there at times. D.It was for royalty to watch performances.
4.Which of the following correctly describes the author's tour
A.She spent 4 hours in the Summer Palace. B.She didn't enjoy the trip because it was too late.
C.She took a boat by herself. D.She only toured parts of the Summer Palace.
D
The Forbidden City is well known for being full of Chinese cultural and historical relics. But Masters in the Forbidden City (《我在故宫修文物》) does not just focus on the stories of the past. Instead, the documentary movie focuses on ordinary people — the restorers(修复者) of relics and antiquities.
The stories are told at a slow and relaxed pace, reflecting the restorers' work. Restoration of cultural relics and antiques can be time-consuming, and sometimes boring. Yet these restorers' patience and peace of mind are especially precious in the society where everything is changing so fast. "If you choose this job, you have to stand hours of work sitting on a chair. You need to be quiet and get used to being quiet," says Wang Jin, an ancient clock repair expert.
A touching part of the documentary is the spirit of craftsmanship in the restorers. "Years of humdrum work requires not only skill, but also faith and spirit," China Daily commented. "Looking for precision and perfection, devoting yourself to work, patience, loneliness... All these qualities come from the 'craftsman spirit'."
But unlike the popular idea of serious experts who sit around being serious, the documentary shows off the enthusiasm of the restorers. They play their guitars and make jokes about each other after a long day of restoration work.
One scene that has been very popular with Internet users features a young female restorer riding a bicycle through the empty Forbidden City on a Monday. While she is doing this, a narrator says, "The last person to do this was Puyi, the last emperor of the Qing Dynasty."
Masters in the Forbidden City has proved wrong many people's ideas about antique restorers, allowing them to realize that they are not old, dull professors, but people in their 40s, 30s and even 20s who can be quite pleasing to the eye.
1.What's the main purpose of the documentary Masters in the Forbidden City
A.To show people how antiques are restored.
B.To display relics seldom seen by ordinary people.
C.To draw attention to antique restorers' enthusiasm.
D.To praise the craftsmanship of Chinese antique restorers.
2.According to Wang Jin, we can learn that _______.
A.he often gets tired of his work
B.there is no need to do restoration work fast
C.antique restorers need to be patient and peaceful
D.it takes years of hard work to adapt to antique restoration
3.What does the underlined word "humdrum" in Paragraph 3 probably mean
A.Boring. B.Different. C.Relaxing. D.Unusual.
4.What's the purpose of using the bicycle-riding scene in the documentary
A.To remind the audience of the last emperor.
B.To show the strange hobby of young antique restorers.
C.To encourage the young to consider a career in antique restoration in the future.
D.To show that the documentary breaks the old, dull image of antique restorers.

I fell in love with Yosemite National Park the first time I saw it. My parents took us there for camping.

I will share the kind act that I met with all of you. We had dozens of restaurant options within a short distance, so we often took advantage of this luxury. On one occasion, I ran out to get some food. I saw the clouds in the distance and decided I could make it there and come back in time, but I was wrong. I was about to leave the restaurant when the rain just poured. The street was flooded within minutes.
But I had my little girl and husband waiting for me back at home, and they were hungry, so I knew I had to make a run for it. The owner of the restaurant tried to encourage me to wait inside, but I insisted that I should go. At this point, he grabbed his umbrella and said, “Okay, let's go.” Of course I tried to convince him that it wasn't necessary for him to walk me home, but I knew I wouldn't prevent him from doing so. So off we went. We quickly realized that the umbrella wouldn't help much in keeping us dry. He walked me all the way to my apartment building, where he said goodbye and ran back to the restaurant.
Again I encountered this act of kindness when I was making my way to the bus. As I waited at the crosswalk, it began to rain lightly. Nothing was too bad, but a young guy nearby felt like it was heavy enough to make him step next to me and hold his umbrella above both of us. After a while, the lights turned green. I thanked him and walked across the street.
Getting around the city when you are six months pregnant and have a two-year-old kid can be challenging sometimes. One spring afternoon, I realized I needed something from the store to finish preparing for dinner. The weather seemed a bit questionable but the store was around the corner so I decided to risk it.

C
答案：1-4.DADD
解析：1.细节理解题。由第一段第二句Before setting off, I researched into it on the Internet.可知作者在出发前上网了解了一些颐和园的情况,故选D。
2.词义猜测题。第二段第四句And in the Summer Palace, unlike most of other places, photography isn't allowed in most of the building.表明在这个建筑中的大部分地方拍照是不被允许的,故可以推测大多数的佛像和手工艺品是禁止用相机拍照的,所以A正确。

②空前一句讲千里之行始于足下,下文讲相反,耐力是通过比前一天的目标多做一点来建立的,故G项"你不会在第一天跑10公里来进行马拉松训练"承接上文,引出下文,故选G。
③此空是一个小标题。结合上下文的小标题可知,应在A项与B项中选。下文讲如果你觉得到目前为止你还没有取得任何进展,你会很难保持积极性,这时你应仔细考虑自己的目标。故A项"衡量你的目标"符合语境。
④根据本段小标题Exercise your willpower和下文内容可知,D项"意志力和自律是相辅相成的"切题。D项中的Willpower与小标题中的willpower相呼应。
⑤空前讲上述自律技巧已被证明是非常有效的,空后讲这是快乐和成功的生活的关键,故F项承上启下,既说明自律的效果,又表述了自律有助于成功。

第二节
答案：①to sing②an③themselves④are uploaded⑤original⑥which⑦Inspired⑧performance⑨has become⑩on
解析：①考查动词不定式。opportunity后常用不定式作后置定语,表示“做某事的机会”,故填to sing。
②考查冠词。此处指你所需要的只是一台摄像机和一个互联网连接,表泛指,且Internet以元音音素开头,故用不定冠词an。
③考查反身代词。分析句子结构可知,主语Virtual choir members和谓语动词record的宾语指代一致,故填反身代词themselves。
④考查动词的时态、语态和主谓一致。此处缺少谓语,由该句中的they are put together及语境可知应用一般现在时,此处指这些视频被上传到互联网上,These videos和upload之间为被动关系,应用被动语态,由主语These videos可知谓语动词应用复数形式。故填are uploaded。
⑤考查形容词。设空处修饰后面的复数名词compositions,应用形容词作定语,故填original。
⑥考查定语从句的引导词。设空处无提示词且前面有逗号,此处指在接下来的10年里,他的原创作品开始在合唱团和歌手中变得非常受欢迎,这促使了虚拟合唱团的创建,结合此处表达的意思可知是前面的内容导致了后面的结果,由此可推断设空处引导的是非限制性定语从句,先行词是前面主句的内容,故用which。
⑦考查过去分词。该句中已有谓语动词,所以此处应用非谓语动词的一种形式,此处的逻辑主语是he,二者之间是被动关系,故填过去分词Inspired,作原因状语。
⑧考查名词。根据空前的one可知,此处应用单数名词,故填 performance,表示“演出”。
⑨考查动词的时态和主谓一致。设空处在句中充当谓语,由时间状语Since then 可知,此处应用现在完成时,且主语为the virtual choir,谓语动词应用单数形式,故填has become。
⑩考查介词。have a positive influence on...意为“对……有积极的影响”。故填on。

答案：
Paragraph 1:
It wasn't raining when we left so we didn't carry my umbrella. We quickly crossed the street to buy what we needed in our daily life. We were walking out of the store when a heavy rain fell. We wanted to cross the street and had to wait for the lights to turn green. I noticed a young couple watching us.
Paragraph 2:
As we crossed the street the woman offered me her umbrella. I said my apartment building was nearby but she insisted that I take it. I refused, but she said it just started to pour. At the same time, she handed me the umbrella and left with her husband. Staring at her figure, I was too moved to express thanks to her. I went home with the umbrella and put it away in a secret place. It was a sign of kindness.
