第一部分 阅读理解（共两节，满分50分）
第一节 （共15小题；每小题2.5分，满分37.5分）
阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中，选出最佳选项。
A
I'm a student in my third year at Robert Gordon University, but I also work 35 hours a week at Sainsbury's to make ends meet.
I constantly have to force myself to stay awake, and to be alert, whatever it takes. The work I do at Sainsbury's is very physical like stacking(堆放) shelves. I am lucky because the amount I lift at work is nothing compared with the weight I lift in the gym. I know I have the strength to bear it.
I am originally from Nigeria. I came here when I was seven. Money was always tight. My parents gave me everything I needed, but there was no money for luxuries. I worked hard at school and with the help of professors, I got the best A-level grades in my class.
Unfortunately, though I had applied for "settled" British residential status, the Home Office waited until I was in the sixth form to approve my application. That meant I was not eligible for a student loan. The only way I could afford to go to university was that I got a job that would pay for all my living costs and my parents paid for my tuition fees.
I don't have much time to socialize because of my job. Ideally, I'd like to have more time to study so I can excel at my course. Yes, I have a lot on my plate, but working hard isn't new for me. My parents taught me the importance of working hard for what I wanted in life.
My dream is to get a job in the NHS. But now, I'm just focused on trying to get the best grades. Whenever I find life hard, I tell myself this is about my future.
1.Why does the author work long hours and sometimes overtime every week
A.To pay for his own living expenses. B.To pay for his tuition fees.
C.To prove his ability to earn money. D.To help his parents pay off the debts.
2.What does the underlined word "eligible" in Paragraph 4 refer to
A.Responsible. B.Anxious. C.Qualified. D.Accessible.
3.Which of the following can NOT be used to describe the author
A.Persistent. B.Diligent. C.Sociable. D.Ambitious.
B
I'm a student in my fourth year of a biomedical science degree at the Robert Gordon University in Aberdeen, but I also work 35 hours a week at Sainsbury's to make ends meet. I do three night shifts a week, plus overtime if I can get it. Monday is the most occupied day for me—I work from 10 pm until 8 am on Saturday and Sunday nights, earning just over 100 a night, and then I have to be at my first lecture at 9 am on Monday. By the time I finish lectures at 2 pm, I'm exhausted, but I know I have to be back at work by 10 pm.
I constantly have to force myself to stay awake, and to be alert, whatever it takes. A packet of Skittles and a Red Bull usually help. The work I do at Sainsbury's is very physical like stacking shelves. I'm lucky because I'm an active person and the amount I lift at work is nothing compared with the weights I lift in the gym. I know I have the strength to bear them.
I'm originally from Nigeria. I came here when I was seven, growing up in Croydon, south London. Money was tight. My parents gave me everything I needed, but there was no money to spend on luxuries(奢侈品). I worked hard at school and, with the help of GT Scholars, I got some of the best A-level grades in my class.
Unfortunately, though I had applied for "settled" British residential status when very young, the Home Office waited until I was in the sixth form to approve my application. That meant I wasn't eligible for a student loan. The only way I could afford to go to university was that I got a job that would pay for all my living costs and my parents, who work in market research, paid for my tuition fees. In Scotland, that's about 7,000 a year.
I don't have much time to socialize because of my job. Ideally, I would also like to have more time to study so I can excel(突出) at my course. Yes, I have a lot on my plate, but working hard isn't new to me. Growing up, my parents and my mentors in the church and at GT Scholars cultivated in me the importance of working hard for what I want in life.
My dream is to get an MA in physiotherapy next year and then get a job working for the NHS. But right now, I'm just focusing on trying to get the best grades I can. Whenever I find life hard, I tell myself this is about my future. I don't need much, but I would like to worry less about money and have more free time. That is what I look forward to the most.
1.Why does the author work long hours and sometimes overtime every week
A.To pay for his own living expenses. B.To pay for his tuition fees.
C.To prove his ability to earn money. D.To help his parents pay off the debts.
2.The underlined word "eligible" in the passage can be replaced by _____.
A.responsible B.anxious C.qualified D.accessible
3.According to the passage, which of the following words can NOT be used to describe the author
A.Ambitious. B.Diligent. C.Sociable. D.Persistent.
4.Which of the following proverbs can best summarize the passage
A.A penny saved is a penny earned. B.Actions speak louder than words.
C.God helps those who help themselves. D.Where there is life, there is hope.
C
China's Lengji Village, meaning the coldest village in Chinese, has become a thriving tourist destination, attracting numerous visitors to enjoy breathtaking winter scenery.
Tourists have flocked(涌) to experience rural life in Lengji Village where temperatures often drop below negative 30 degrees Celsius. They also have the opportunity to observe local villagers working in the frigid winter to protect the natural environment.
To protect the snow-covered forests, villagers work on a variety of jobs at a local forest farm under environmental conservation projects. Among them is forest ranger for Jinlin Forest Farm at the Daxing'anling Jinhe Forestry Administration Cheng Shanzhong, who patrols(巡视)100-hectares of forest area, a 40-minute drive away from the village.
"Every day, we would patrol the forests. The forests of our motherland must be protected," said Cheng. "The forest has been under protection and the protection has also brought more wild animals."
After completing his routine patrol, Cheng returned home and cooked local typical dishes called "eight big bowls" to treat around a dozen tourists visiting his village.
Former factory buildings were offered to forestry workers with entrepreneurial ideas and eagerness. Some of them have developed family tours in the area, boosting the development of "China's Cold Pole Village" scenic spot.
The local tourist industry has boomed after ski facilities, which led to Cheng's income increasing a lot. "Through our efforts, we will definitely make China's Lengji Village a more famous landscape,'' said Cheng.

In her 17 years of working at Rollins College in the US, there have often been students who have appeared in Anca Voicu's office and confessed(坦白) they have no idea what to do with their lives once they graduate. That's why the economics professor decided to add career planning to her class, even starting before young people step onto a college campus.
Throughout this semester, Voicu's real-world economics class has visited about 100 Winter Park High students. It has asked them to think about everything from picking the right major to the job market and the cost of higher education.
"They have to balance what they need to do and what they love to do," said Rollins freshman Nicholas Kay, 18.
During their final class of the semester, Kay and his classmates reflected on what it was like helping younger versions of themselves explore the future. Voicu expects to continue the class so she can collect data to see if working together is making a difference.
"These kids were only eight months younger than me," said Rollins freshman Blake Buell, an 18-year-old business management major.
The high school students also went on a tour of the Winter Park College, seeing what life was like on campus, how admissions worked and what a dorm room looked like. They asked Rollins students questions including "How does the food taste " and "What are classes like " Winter Park sophomore(二年级学生) Sebastian Zendejas, 15, said it was eye-opening and helped him to understand how college could be.
"I don't want to have a bunch of(大量的) debt when I'm leaving college," said Zendejas, who plans to study business.
"The lessons that showed students' job availability were something many had never thought about before," said Tim Arnold, one of the four Winter Park High teachers involved in the project. The students also took personality tests to see where they might fit best.
Looking at the data and realizing how many good jobs there were in the science, technology, engineering and math fields made some of Voicu's students feel better. "The lessons that showed students' job availability were something many had never thought about before, I should really stick with this," said computer science first-year student Brandi Moore, 18.
1. Why has Anca Voicu decided to add career planning to her class
A. To establish the connection between economics and real-world problems.
B. To help students get to know and think about their future.
C. To show students what life is like on campus.
D. To collect some data to make a difference.
2. What can we infer from Brandi Moore's words
A. She felt the personality test worked well.
B. She would love to retake Voicu's class.
C. She was more confident in her major.
D. She had had serious doubts about her major.
3. What is the writing purpose of this article
A. To describe Voicu's new class.
B. To give advice on career planning.
C. To remind readers of the importance of early career planning.
D. To show how colleges can help students with their future plans.
4. What can we learn from the article
A. It is wise to choose what we are most interested in as a major.
B. The course benefits high school students more than college students.
C. Career planning requires the help of teachers and college students.
D. It's important to make a well-balanced choice when making career plans.

I used to be very active in sports and games when I was in primary school. As a result, I was chosen to represent the school in the long jump and relay events at the District Sports Meet. I promised myself I would make every effort so as not to leave the meet empty -handed.
The meeting lasted two days. Our events were scheduled for the second day. The long jump was scheduled for the early afternoon, followed by the 8 x 50m relay later in the afternoon. I thought I was a pretty good jumper, but as the competition began, I realized I was vastly outclassed. 3. 65m was not bad. But there was boy who jumped over 4 meters! We finished our jumps, and I came in fourth place, just missing out on a medal. That was disappointing, but I reminded myself that we still had a chance in the 8 X 50m relay, for which I was assigned to run the last leg.
The race was about to begin. We filed into our assigned spots and prepared for the race. After a tense minute or so, I heard the starter's gun go off. When the first runners took off, I watched with bated breath (屏住呼吸地) as my team runners kept up with the others. As they got closer, I realized we were at least in second place.
Then came my turn. I took the baton (接力棒) cleanly and began my run. The air rushed past me as I moved closer to the next runner. I was sure the medal which we dreamed of was within easy reach. Then disaster struck! I saw a boy, about 2-or-3-year-old, run across the track into my path out of nowhere. Quite likely, his parent didn't notice what was happening. I couldn't get away from him fast enough. I couldn't avoid hitting him if I continued running for my medal.
Paragraph 1 :
I had to make a decision in only seconds. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Paragraph 2 :
I cried, realizing I missed out on another medal.

答案以及解析
第一部分 阅读理解
第一节
A
答案：答案：1-3.ACC
解析：1.细节理解题。根据第四段最后一句The only way I could afford to go to university was that I got a job that would pay for all my living costs and my parents paid for my tuition fees.可知,作者每周要工作很长时间,有时还要加班是为了自己支付生活费用。故选A。B项“为了支付他的学费”与原文不符,是父母支付学费;C项“为了证明他赚钱的能力”和D项“为了帮助他的父母还清债务”在文中均未提及。
2.词义猜测题。根据第四段第一句Unfortunately, though I had applied for "settled" British residential status, the Home Office waited until I was in the sixth form to approve my application.可推测,作者不符合学生贷款的“资格”,故画线单词意思为“合格的,有资格的"。responsible负责的;anxious焦虑的;qualified有资格的;accessible易接近的。故选C。
3.推理判断题。根据倒数第二段第一句I don't have much time to socialize because of my job.可推测,作者并不是一个善于社交的人。persistent坚持不懈的;diligent勤奋的;sociable好交际的;ambitious有雄心的。故选C。
B
答案：1-4 ACCC
解析： 1.细节理解题。根据第一段中的to make ends meet可知, 作者之所以每周工作很长时间, 有时甚至加班, 是为了给自己挣生活费。故选A。干扰项分析: B项(支付他的学费), 学费是他的父母支付的; C项(证明自己赚钱的能力)和D项(帮父母还债), 文中未提及。
2.词义猜测题。由后文的The only way I...a year.可知, 我没有资格申请学生贷款。由此推知, 画线词的意思是"合格的, 有资格的"。故选C。
3.推理判断题。根据第五段中的"I don't have much time to socialize because of my job."可知, 因为工作的关系, 作者没有太多的时间社交。所以sociable(好交际的)不能用来描述作者。故选C。
4.主旨大意题。本文讲述的是作者每周工作很长时间, 有时甚至加班, 这是为了支付自己的生活费。再根据最后一段中的"Whenever I find life hard, I tell myself this is about my future."(每当我发现生活艰难时, 我告诉自己这是为了我的未来)可知, 谚语"God helps those who help themselves."(天助自助者), 是对这篇文章的最好概括。故选C。
C
答案：1-4 ADDD
解析：1.细节理解题。根据第二段第一句中的to experience rural life in Lengji Village可知，游客们蜂拥而至是为了体验冷极村的乡村生活；再根据第一段China's Lengji Village， meaning the coldest village in Chinese可知，选A。
2.细节理解题。根据第四段最后一句中的the protection has also brought more wild animals可知，（自然）保护也带来了更多的野生动物。故D项“他们经常能看到越来越多的野生动物”为答案。
3.主旨大意题。根据文章第一、二段可知，本文主要讲述了冷极村的旅游业。
4.推理判断题。最后一段中程说“通过我们的努力，我们一定会让中国的冷极村成为更著名的风景”。再结合Cheng's income increasing a lot可推断出，村民们通过发展旅游业而获得了回报，故选D项“人们的努力已得到了物质上的回报”。
D
答案：1-4.BCAD
解析：1.推理判断题。根据一段中"...there have often been students who..."可知,经常有学生毕业之后不知道该做什么。这就是为什么这位经济学教授决定在课堂上增加职业规划这一新课程。由此可推断出这位教授是想帮助学生了解和思考他们的未来,故选B。
2.推理判断题。根据最一段Brandi Moore的话"The lessons that showed students' job availability were something many had never thought about before. I should really stick with this..."可知, 这些课程展示给学生许多他们以前从未想过的可考虑的工作, Brandi Moore觉得应坚持自己的专业。由此可推断出她对自己的专业更有信心,才会坚持。故选C。
3.主旨大意题。本文第一段是主旨,主要叙述了Anca Voicu教授准备在课堂上增设职业规划这一新课程,下文对此进行了介绍并说明这种课程对学生的影响。分析选项可知A项“To describe Voicu's new class.(描述Voicu的新课程)”符合题意,故选A。
4.推理判断题。根据文章中的“It has asked them to think about everything from picking the right major to the job market and the cost of higher education.”和“They have to balance what they need to do and what they love to do...”可知,“课程中要求他们考虑从选择合适的专业到高等教育的成本的所有事情” “他们必须平衡自己需要做什么和喜欢做什么”。因此,在制订职业规划时,做出平衡的选择很重要,故选D。
第二节
答案：①-⑤ DFGAE
解析：①过渡句。根据空后"That can be exciting, but it can also be overwhelming."(那可能是令人兴奋的, 但也可能令人难以应付)可知, D选项When you move to a new place, you're bound to face a lot of changes.(当你搬到一个新的地方, 你一定会面临很多变化)与上文中的"live in a different culture"相呼应, 符合语境, 故选D。
②细节句。空前提到But don't feel like you need to change everything about yourself so you can stand out less.(不要感觉你需要改变你的一切以便不那么显眼)。F项"你来新家之前所有的经历都是你的一部分"是对空前句的解释说明, 故选F。
③细节句。本段第一句"Educate people about your culture."是该段的主旨句, 空后They may know little about it.与G项Take the opportunity to teach classmates and new friends about your culture.构成因果关系, 故选G。
④主旨句。后文的keep in touch与A项Keep in touch with home.相呼应, 故选A。
⑤过渡句。根据空后句You will have your own pace of adjusting.(你会有自己的适应节奏)可知, E项Try not to force yourself to change too fast or too many things all at once.(尽量不要强迫自己一下子改变得太快或太多)与pace对应, 故选E。

第二节
答案：①who/that ②concerned ③economic ④Additionally ⑤to look ⑥that ⑦increases ⑧from ⑨studying ⑩difficulties
解析：①考查定语从句。先行词是students, 从句中缺少主语, 故填who/that。
②考查固定搭配。as far as sb. be concerned, 意为"在某人看来"。
③考查词性转换。economic是形容词, 意为"经济的", 和academic并列作pressure的定语。
④考查词性转换。additionally是副词, 意为"此外", 在句首作状语。
⑤考查非谓语动词。此处包含固定搭配have sth. to do, 意为"有......要做"。have a great future to look forward to意为"有美好的未来可以期待"。

⑦考查时态。not only...but also...连接并列谓语, 此处与contributes并列, 故填increases。
⑧考查介词。from different angles意为"从不同的角度"。
⑨考查非谓语动词。此处为动名词短语作主语。

I hope all of you will learn more about ancient Chinese civilization and enjoy your stay here.
答案：
Paragraph 1:
I had to make a decision in only seconds. Of course, I could push him off my track and kept running but that way, he might get seriously hurt. If I stopped, it might cost us valuable time. I was in a dilemma. However, I somehow slowed down and stopped suddenly. The little boy turned to me and burst out laughing. I rounded him and began to run again with all my might, but it’s too late. We’d blown our chance at a medal.
Paragraph 2:
I cried, realizing I missed out on another medal. I didn’t regret, but at the thought of the fact that we had no choice but to leave the meet empty-handed, tears streamed down my cheeks. To my surprise, my teacher and classmates ran to hug me tightly. My teacher said he was proud of me, adding that it was the real spirit of sport. As a 10-year-old, I didn’t quite understand that, but they did impress me and leave me feeling both bitter and sweet.

第一节 （共15小题；每小题2.5分，满分37.5分）
阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中，选出最佳选项。
A
I'm a student in my third year at Robert Gordon University, but I also work 35 hours a week at Sainsbury's to make ends meet.
I constantly have to force myself to stay awake, and to be alert, whatever it takes. The work I do at Sainsbury's is very physical like stacking(堆放) shelves. I am lucky because the amount I lift at work is nothing compared with the weight I lift in the gym. I know I have the strength to bear it.
I am originally from Nigeria. I came here when I was seven. Money was always tight. My parents gave me everything I needed, but there was no money for luxuries. I worked hard at school and with the help of professors, I got the best A-level grades in my class.
Unfortunately, though I had applied for "settled" British residential status, the Home Office waited until I was in the sixth form to approve my application. That meant I was not eligible for a student loan. The only way I could afford to go to university was that I got a job that would pay for all my living costs and my parents paid for my tuition fees.
I don't have much time to socialize because of my job. Ideally, I'd like to have more time to study so I can excel at my course. Yes, I have a lot on my plate, but working hard isn't new for me. My parents taught me the importance of working hard for what I wanted in life.
My dream is to get a job in the NHS. But now, I'm just focused on trying to get the best grades. Whenever I find life hard, I tell myself this is about my future.

I'm a student in my fourth year of a biomedical science degree at the Robert Gordon University in Aberdeen, but I also work 35 hours a week at Sainsbury's to make ends meet. I do three night shifts a week, plus overtime if I can get it. Monday is the most occupied day for me—I work from 10 pm until 8 am on Saturday and Sunday nights, earning just over 100 a night, and then I have to be at my first lecture at 9 am on Monday. By the time I finish lectures at 2 pm, I'm exhausted, but I know I have to be back at work by 10 pm.
I constantly have to force myself to stay awake, and to be alert, whatever it takes. A packet of Skittles and a Red Bull usually help. The work I do at Sainsbury's is very physical like stacking shelves. I'm lucky because I'm an active person and the amount I lift at work is nothing compared with the weights I lift in the gym. I know I have the strength to bear them.
I'm originally from Nigeria. I came here when I was seven, growing up in Croydon, south London. Money was tight. My parents gave me everything I needed, but there was no money to spend on luxuries(奢侈品). I worked hard at school and, with the help of GT Scholars, I got some of the best A-level grades in my class.
Unfortunately, though I had applied for "settled" British residential status when very young, the Home Office waited until I was in the sixth form to approve my application. That meant I wasn't eligible for a student loan. The only way I could afford to go to university was that I got a job that would pay for all my living costs and my parents, who work in market research, paid for my tuition fees. In Scotland, that's about 7,000 a year.
I don't have much time to socialize because of my job. Ideally, I would also like to have more time to study so I can excel(突出) at my course. Yes, I have a lot on my plate, but working hard isn't new to me. Growing up, my parents and my mentors in the church and at GT Scholars cultivated in me the importance of working hard for what I want in life.
My dream is to get an MA in physiotherapy next year and then get a job working for the NHS. But right now, I'm just focusing on trying to get the best grades I can. Whenever I find life hard, I tell myself this is about my future. I don't need much, but I would like to worry less about money and have more free time. That is what I look forward to the most.
1.Why does the author work long hours and sometimes overtime every week

China's Lengji Village, meaning the coldest village in Chinese, has become a thriving tourist destination, attracting numerous visitors to enjoy breathtaking winter scenery.
Tourists have flocked(涌) to experience rural life in Lengji Village where temperatures often drop below negative 30 degrees Celsius. They also have the opportunity to observe local villagers working in the frigid winter to protect the natural environment.
To protect the snow-covered forests, villagers work on a variety of jobs at a local forest farm under environmental conservation projects. Among them is forest ranger for Jinlin Forest Farm at the Daxing'anling Jinhe Forestry Administration Cheng Shanzhong, who patrols(巡视)100-hectares of forest area, a 40-minute drive away from the village.
"Every day, we would patrol the forests. The forests of our motherland must be protected," said Cheng. "The forest has been under protection and the protection has also brought more wild animals."
After completing his routine patrol, Cheng returned home and cooked local typical dishes called "eight big bowls" to treat around a dozen tourists visiting his village.
Former factory buildings were offered to forestry workers with entrepreneurial ideas and eagerness. Some of them have developed family tours in the area, boosting the development of "China's Cold Pole Village" scenic spot.
The local tourist industry has boomed after ski facilities, which led to Cheng's income increasing a lot. "Through our efforts, we will definitely make China's Lengji Village a more famous landscape,'' said Cheng.

In her 17 years of working at Rollins College in the US, there have often been students who have appeared in Anca Voicu's office and confessed(坦白) they have no idea what to do with their lives once they graduate. That's why the economics professor decided to add career planning to her class, even starting before young people step onto a college campus.
Throughout this semester, Voicu's real-world economics class has visited about 100 Winter Park High students. It has asked them to think about everything from picking the right major to the job market and the cost of higher education.
"They have to balance what they need to do and what they love to do," said Rollins freshman Nicholas Kay, 18.
During their final class of the semester, Kay and his classmates reflected on what it was like helping younger versions of themselves explore the future. Voicu expects to continue the class so she can collect data to see if working together is making a difference.
"These kids were only eight months younger than me," said Rollins freshman Blake Buell, an 18-year-old business management major.
The high school students also went on a tour of the Winter Park College, seeing what life was like on campus, how admissions worked and what a dorm room looked like. They asked Rollins students questions including "How does the food taste " and "What are classes like " Winter Park sophomore(二年级学生) Sebastian Zendejas, 15, said it was eye-opening and helped him to understand how college could be.
"I don't want to have a bunch of(大量的) debt when I'm leaving college," said Zendejas, who plans to study business.
"The lessons that showed students' job availability were something many had never thought about before," said Tim Arnold, one of the four Winter Park High teachers involved in the project. The students also took personality tests to see where they might fit best.
Looking at the data and realizing how many good jobs there were in the science, technology, engineering and math fields made some of Voicu's students feel better. "The lessons that showed students' job availability were something many had never thought about before, I should really stick with this," said computer science first-year student Brandi Moore, 18.
1. Why has Anca Voicu decided to add career planning to her class
A. To establish the connection between economics and real-world problems.
B. To help students get to know and think about their future.
C. To show students what life is like on campus.
D. To collect some data to make a difference.
2. What can we infer from Brandi Moore's words
A. She felt the personality test worked well.
B. She would love to retake Voicu's class.
C. She was more confident in her major.
D. She had had serious doubts about her major.
3. What is the writing purpose of this article
A. To describe Voicu's new class.
B. To give advice on career planning.
C. To remind readers of the importance of early career planning.
D. To show how colleges can help students with their future plans.
4. What can we learn from the article
A. It is wise to choose what we are most interested in as a major.
B. The course benefits high school students more than college students.
C. Career planning requires the help of teachers and college students.
D. It's important to make a well-balanced choice when making career plans.

I used to be very active in sports and games when I was in primary school. As a result, I was chosen to represent the school in the long jump and relay events at the District Sports Meet. I promised myself I would make every effort so as not to leave the meet empty -handed.
The meeting lasted two days. Our events were scheduled for the second day. The long jump was scheduled for the early afternoon, followed by the 8 x 50m relay later in the afternoon. I thought I was a pretty good jumper, but as the competition began, I realized I was vastly outclassed. 3. 65m was not bad. But there was boy who jumped over 4 meters! We finished our jumps, and I came in fourth place, just missing out on a medal. That was disappointing, but I reminded myself that we still had a chance in the 8 X 50m relay, for which I was assigned to run the last leg.
The race was about to begin. We filed into our assigned spots and prepared for the race. After a tense minute or so, I heard the starter's gun go off. When the first runners took off, I watched with bated breath (屏住呼吸地) as my team runners kept up with the others. As they got closer, I realized we were at least in second place.
Then came my turn. I took the baton (接力棒) cleanly and began my run. The air rushed past me as I moved closer to the next runner. I was sure the medal which we dreamed of was within easy reach. Then disaster struck! I saw a boy, about 2-or-3-year-old, run across the track into my path out of nowhere. Quite likely, his parent didn't notice what was happening. I couldn't get away from him fast enough. I couldn't avoid hitting him if I continued running for my medal.

I had to make a decision in only seconds. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

答案以及解析
第一部分 阅读理解
第一节
A
答案：答案：1-3.ACC
解析：1.细节理解题。根据第四段最后一句The only way I could afford to go to university was that I got a job that would pay for all my living costs and my parents paid for my tuition fees.可知,作者每周要工作很长时间,有时还要加班是为了自己支付生活费用。故选A。B项“为了支付他的学费”与原文不符,是父母支付学费;C项“为了证明他赚钱的能力”和D项“为了帮助他的父母还清债务”在文中均未提及。
2.词义猜测题。根据第四段第一句Unfortunately, though I had applied for "settled" British residential status, the Home Office waited until I was in the sixth form to approve my application.可推测,作者不符合学生贷款的“资格”,故画线单词意思为“合格的,有资格的"。responsible负责的;anxious焦虑的;qualified有资格的;accessible易接近的。故选C。
3.推理判断题。根据倒数第二段第一句I don't have much time to socialize because of my job.可推测,作者并不是一个善于社交的人。persistent坚持不懈的;diligent勤奋的;sociable好交际的;ambitious有雄心的。故选C。
B
答案：1-4 ACCC
解析： 1.细节理解题。根据第一段中的to make ends meet可知, 作者之所以每周工作很长时间, 有时甚至加班, 是为了给自己挣生活费。故选A。干扰项分析: B项(支付他的学费), 学费是他的父母支付的; C项(证明自己赚钱的能力)和D项(帮父母还债), 文中未提及。
2.词义猜测题。由后文的The only way I...a year.可知, 我没有资格申请学生贷款。由此推知, 画线词的意思是"合格的, 有资格的"。故选C。
3.推理判断题。根据第五段中的"I don't have much time to socialize because of my job."可知, 因为工作的关系, 作者没有太多的时间社交。所以sociable(好交际的)不能用来描述作者。故选C。
4.主旨大意题。本文讲述的是作者每周工作很长时间, 有时甚至加班, 这是为了支付自己的生活费。再根据最后一段中的"Whenever I find life hard, I tell myself this is about my future."(每当我发现生活艰难时, 我告诉自己这是为了我的未来)可知, 谚语"God helps those who help themselves."(天助自助者), 是对这篇文章的最好概括。故选C。
C
答案：1-4 ADDD
解析：1.细节理解题。根据第二段第一句中的to experience rural life in Lengji Village可知，游客们蜂拥而至是为了体验冷极村的乡村生活；再根据第一段China's Lengji Village， meaning the coldest village in Chinese可知，选A。
2.细节理解题。根据第四段最后一句中的the protection has also brought more wild animals可知，（自然）保护也带来了更多的野生动物。故D项“他们经常能看到越来越多的野生动物”为答案。
3.主旨大意题。根据文章第一、二段可知，本文主要讲述了冷极村的旅游业。
4.推理判断题。最后一段中程说“通过我们的努力，我们一定会让中国的冷极村成为更著名的风景”。再结合Cheng's income increasing a lot可推断出，村民们通过发展旅游业而获得了回报，故选D项“人们的努力已得到了物质上的回报”。
D
答案：1-4.BCAD
解析：1.推理判断题。根据一段中"...there have often been students who..."可知,经常有学生毕业之后不知道该做什么。这就是为什么这位经济学教授决定在课堂上增加职业规划这一新课程。由此可推断出这位教授是想帮助学生了解和思考他们的未来,故选B。
2.推理判断题。根据最一段Brandi Moore的话"The lessons that showed students' job availability were something many had never thought about before. I should really stick with this..."可知, 这些课程展示给学生许多他们以前从未想过的可考虑的工作, Brandi Moore觉得应坚持自己的专业。由此可推断出她对自己的专业更有信心,才会坚持。故选C。
3.主旨大意题。本文第一段是主旨,主要叙述了Anca Voicu教授准备在课堂上增设职业规划这一新课程,下文对此进行了介绍并说明这种课程对学生的影响。分析选项可知A项“To describe Voicu's new class.(描述Voicu的新课程)”符合题意,故选A。
4.推理判断题。根据文章中的“It has asked them to think about everything from picking the right major to the job market and the cost of higher education.”和“They have to balance what they need to do and what they love to do...”可知,“课程中要求他们考虑从选择合适的专业到高等教育的成本的所有事情” “他们必须平衡自己需要做什么和喜欢做什么”。因此,在制订职业规划时,做出平衡的选择很重要,故选D。
第二节
答案：①-⑤ DFGAE
解析：①过渡句。根据空后"That can be exciting, but it can also be overwhelming."(那可能是令人兴奋的, 但也可能令人难以应付)可知, D选项When you move to a new place, you're bound to face a lot of changes.(当你搬到一个新的地方, 你一定会面临很多变化)与上文中的"live in a different culture"相呼应, 符合语境, 故选D。
②细节句。空前提到But don't feel like you need to change everything about yourself so you can stand out less.(不要感觉你需要改变你的一切以便不那么显眼)。F项"你来新家之前所有的经历都是你的一部分"是对空前句的解释说明, 故选F。
③细节句。本段第一句"Educate people about your culture."是该段的主旨句, 空后They may know little about it.与G项Take the opportunity to teach classmates and new friends about your culture.构成因果关系, 故选G。
④主旨句。后文的keep in touch与A项Keep in touch with home.相呼应, 故选A。
⑤过渡句。根据空后句You will have your own pace of adjusting.(你会有自己的适应节奏)可知, E项Try not to force yourself to change too fast or too many things all at once.(尽量不要强迫自己一下子改变得太快或太多)与pace对应, 故选E。

第二节
答案：①who/that ②concerned ③economic ④Additionally ⑤to look ⑥that ⑦increases ⑧from ⑨studying ⑩difficulties

Dear friends,
On behalf of our school, I'm glad to show our warm welcome to all the students and teachers from London Confucius Institute.

I hope all of you will learn more about ancient Chinese civilization and enjoy your stay here.
答案：
Paragraph 1:
I had to make a decision in only seconds. Of course, I could push him off my track and kept running but that way, he might get seriously hurt. If I stopped, it might cost us valuable time. I was in a dilemma. However, I somehow slowed down and stopped suddenly. The little boy turned to me and burst out laughing. I rounded him and began to run again with all my might, but it’s too late. We’d blown our chance at a medal.
Paragraph 2:
I cried, realizing I missed out on another medal. I didn’t regret, but at the thought of the fact that we had no choice but to leave the meet empty-handed, tears streamed down my cheeks. To my surprise, my teacher and classmates ran to hug me tightly. My teacher said he was proud of me, adding that it was the real spirit of sport. As a 10-year-old, I didn’t quite understand that, but they did impress me and leave me feeling both bitter and sweet.
