一、阅读理解
As the world's resources become fewer because of continuing land development and the growing human population, the natural habitats of wild animals have continued to reduce. As a result, the survival of some species of wildlife is threatened. To help protect wildlife, a lot of practice should be carried out by the general public.
Create homes for species that are endangered because of losing their own natural habitats. Wildlife shelters should be developed, and habitats should be created in existing national parks. Efforts should also be made to protect existing habitats, such as providing food and water and limiting hunting. Breed(培育)endangered species in places such as zoos. Once the young animals grow up, they can be set free into the wild where their population will continue to grow.
The general public may not realize that a species is endangered until it's too late. Educational programs making use of TV advertising and instructional meetings at national parks can be used to make the public aware of the situation.
The general public can help protect the wildlife by not hunting wild animals for sport or for a source of food. They should also stop supporting those who earn money from the illegal hunting of wild animals, such as hunters who hunt wild animals for the only purpose of selling them for money.
If there is no market for wild animals, there will be no killing of these endangered species. The public should avoid keeping wild animals as pets. This will limit the number of wild animals being tracked, trapped, sold and removed from their natural habitats.

In 1916, two girls of wealthy families, best friends from Auburn, N.Y.—Dorothy Woodruff and Rosamond Underwood—traveled to a settlement in the Rocky Mountains to teach in a one-room schoolhouse. The girls had gone to Smith College. They wore expensive clothes. So for them to move to Elkhead, Colo. to instruct the children whose shoes were held together with string was a surprise. Their stay in Elkhead is the subject of Nothing Daunted: The Unexpected Education of Two Society Girls in the West by Dorothy Wickenden, who is a magazine editor and Dorothy Woodruff's granddaughter.
Why did they go then Well, they wanted to do something useful. Soon, however, they realized what they had undertaken.
They moved in with a local family, the Harrisons, and, like them, had little privacy, rare baths, and a blanket of snow on their quilt when they woke up in the morning. Some mornings, Rosamond and Dorothy would arrive at the schoolhouse to find the children weeping from the cold. In spring, the snow was replaced by mud over ice.
In Wickenden's book, she expanded on the history of the West and also on feminism, which of course influenced the girls' decision to go to Elkhead. A hair-raising section concerns the building of the railroads, which entailed(牵涉) drilling through the Rockies, often in blinding snowstorms. The book ends with Rosamond and Dorothy's return to Auburn.
Wickenden is a very good storyteller. The sweep of the land and the stoicism(坚忍) of the people move her to some beautiful writing. Here is a picture of Dorothy Woodruff, on her horse, looking down from a hill top: "When the sun slipped behind the mountains, it shed a rosy glow all around them. Then a full moon rose. The snow was marked only by small animals: foxes, coyotes, mice, and varying hares, which turned white in the winter."

Young adults have strong positive memories of the music their parents loved when they were the same age, a study finds.
Participants in a study on musical memory said they remembered and loved the music that was popular in the early 1980s, when their parents were young. They also relished the music of the 1960s, which their grandparents may have been playing while changing their mom’s diapers (尿布). “They would hear this music and say, ‘Oh yeah, that’s my parents’ music,’ with obvious fondness,” says Carol Lynne Krumhansl, the psychology professor at Cornell University who led the study.
The scientists had been testing musical memory in an earlier study, and were surprised to find that college age participants could recognize older pop and rock songs just as quickly as the new stuff. Even more surprisingly, they liked the older stuff more. Therefore, the researchers decided to find out what was happening, using clips (片段) from hits on Billboard lists between 1955 and 2009. More than 60 student volunteers (average age 20) listened to short clips of the top two pop and rock songs of each year. The researchers quizzed them about which songs they recognized, how much they liked them and their emotional responses. They were also asked if they had memories associated with the songs and whether those memories were from listening with parents, alone, or with others.
“We didn’t have any idea that young adults had the strongest personal memories of the music of the early 1980s”, Krumhansl said. She and her colleague, Justin Adam Zupnick of the University of California, were even more surprised to see the second “reminiscence bump (回忆高峰)” in emotion and memory for top hits was from 1965 to 1969.
The connection to parents’ music isn’t entirely surprising. Music plays a central role in bringing up a child. Songs are taught at home and school and heard more informally as part of the home environment. The songs parents choose to listen to reflect their taste, their values, and their era. Besides, music is a powerful cue (提示) for calling up strong personal memories — when you made a new friend at the summer camp or the blue dress you wore to a party. And the human brain remembers music in great detail, unlike spoken words, in which people remember just the general meaning.
The 1960s music may evoke strong memories in people in their twenties because of the quality, Krumhansl guesses. She thinks the students might have memories of the 1960s music because it lives on as classics. Technology may also be a factor. The introduction of cassette tapes in the 1960s made music more ubiquitous (普遍存在的), and the same tapes were played long after that decade ended.
Next, Krumhansl wants to find out if other generations have the same experiences with music, and try to trace influences back through multiple generations.
12、The underlined word “relished” in Paragraph 2 probably means________.
A. played B. heard C. understood D. enjoyed
13、We can learn from the study that young adults________.
A. can only recognize the top two pop and rock songs on Billboard lists
B. showed no emotional response to music of the 1950s
C. had the second strongest memories of the music of the late 1960s
D. like listening to the old songs with their parents
14、The last but one paragraph serves to________.
A. draw a conclusion B. make a comparison
C. give an example D. provide an explanation
15、What’s the main idea of the passage
A.Music of parents’ era still appeals to young adults of today.
B. Music can narrow the generation gap between parents and kids.
C. Music matters a lot in the growth of young people.
D. Music of quality can have a lasting influence.
Timothy is a 5-year-old boy with autism(自闭症). In October of 2018, doctors told his parents that he suffered brain tumor(肿瘤).
Two thieves who specialized in stealing packages from people’s front gates had no idea that one of those packages contained a WWE wrestling belt belonging to Timothy. At the time, the belt was on the front gate of Sergio Moriers’s house, whose job was decorating stuff. “Timothy’s father doesn’t make a lot of money. But he wanted to give his son an amazing gift, and I told him I would do everything for free. I said, ‘Just ship it over and I’ll do everything you want on the belt, and he’ll have the belt of a lifetime.” He said.
When the belt was taken, Sergio was extremely disturbed, “I want them to know they took hope from a 5-year-old boy who is looking forward to that item coming back to him… You stole that from him. You broke a child’s heart.” Timothy’s father shared what that belt meant to his son, “Timothy would not go anywhere without that belt… Most kids have balls, while he had a belt.” All hope was lost.
Then something unexpected happened. “I saw two women appeared at the gate. They put down the bag there. My guard went over and I realized what was happening. That bag contained the stolen wrestling belt,” Sergio said. The two women apologized to Sergio. They said that they were thrown out of a friend’s apartment after the friend saw the news report of the theft on TV. In fact, they were trying to kick a drug habit. They cried with guilt and shame.
Seeing the returned belt, Timothy’s father said, “It’s one of those things you always hear about, those crazy stories about people, but you never think it’ll happen to yourself. I’m still taken aback, to be honest.”
16、What was Sergio’s original intention
A. To buy the boy a wonderful gift.
B. To beautify the boy’s belt for free.
C. To help the boy win a competition.
D. To earn money from decorating the belt.

B. He felt he was cheated by the thieves.
C. He was astonished at the returned belt.
D. He couldn’t believe his stuff was stolen.

I’m a seventeen-year-old boy preparing for my A Level exams at the end of the year. In the society where my peers and I live, we tend to accept the rat race values. As students, we want to get good grades so that we can get good jobs. I enjoy studying and have consistently received A’s in my classes. There was a year when I finished first in my class in the final exams. It was a great accomplishment.
Another one I am pleased with is that I managed to improve the relationship between Mum and Dad. Dad was a successful businessman who was rarely at home. Mum was a housewife who always felt bored and constantly nagged (唠叨) him to let her go to work. Their constant arguing bothered me, so I advised Dad that Mum would be better off with a part-time job. He agreed, and their relationship has improved since then.
My most proud achievement, however, is my successful work in the local old folks’ home. My grandparents had raised me since I was a child. I wept (哭泣) bitterly when they died. Unlike many of my classmates, I do not take part in my school’s community service to earn points. I enjoy my voluntary work and believe I’m contributing to a worthwhile cause. This is where I can help. I talk to the elderly, assist them with their daily life, and listen to their problems, glory days and the hardships they experienced.
Last year, I hosted a successful New Year party for the elderly and they enjoyed a great time. Many expressed a desire to attend another party the following year. When I reflect on my accomplishments, I’m especially proud of my service at the old folks’ home, so I hope to study social work at university and work as a social worker in the future. I wish to be more skilled in attending to the less fortunate as well as find great satisfaction in it.

五、完形填空（15空）
A couple of weeks ago, my grandfather was explaining his favorite expression, “Nothing is ever easy.” The following day, as I tried to complete my day’s work, I happened to 1 a bumblebee (大黄蜂) on the skylight (天窗). The skylight was particularly high up, but I thought 2 the bee would take no more than five minutes. An hour later, the bee still 3 .
All that had changed was that the living room was a mess and that I was dizzy (头晕的) from looking up into the sunlight. I did not 4 to waste an hour on a tiny insect, but by doing so, I understood what my grandfather meant.
It is not only time that we tend to underestimate (低估) — we don’t take account of unexpected costs. We often imagine what can work 5 , but we seldom think of all the 6 things that could affect us. However, it is important to remember that your day of week or year might not go as planned, and that is normal. It is 7 to feel challenged — even at a task you thought was simple 8 that is part of life.
If you can accept that nothing will ever be easy, then life might seem slightly more manageable. In 9 school, I thought high school might be easier because I could choose the classes I wanted to take. In high school, I thought college might be easier because I could have a schedule 10 for myself. Yet I was 11 each time. After accepting that school wouldn’t be easy, I found myself 12 a more positive attitude and improved results.
Of course, there should be preparations made to take account of 13 or time. Doing so can only help you 14 your goals in a better way. However, there is no need to beat ourselves up when something stands in our 15 . Maybe we cannot see a bee coming our way, but we can always give ourselves the extra time to catch it.

32、A. flying B. removing C. hitting D. running
33、A. slept B. flowed C. came D. remained

24、答案：copies; was performed; fighting; whose; is; actually; owner; but; an; wounded
解析： 这是一篇说明文,介绍了有关英国著名作家Michael Morpurgo的小说《战马》的一些情况。
①考查名词复数。copy表示"(书、报纸等的)一本,一册,一份"时为可数名词,根据空前的few可知,应用复数形式。
②考查动词的时态和语态。句子主语War Horse与谓语动词perform之间为被动关系,故应用被动语态;又根据时间状语in 2005可知,应用一般过去时。
③考查非谓语动词。分析句子结构可知,空处在句中作定语修饰soldiers,表示"在前线打仗的士兵",由于soldiers与fight之间为逻辑上的主谓关系,故用动词-ing形式。
④考查定语从句。分析句子结构可知,空处引导定语从句,先行词为people,且关系词在从句中作定语,故用whose。
⑤考查时态和主谓一致。分析句子结构可知,空处为句子谓语,主语是主语从句What makes it special,且此处表示一般情况,故填is。
⑥考查副词。句中is为动词,应用副词修饰,故应填actually。
⑦考查词形转换。空处与friend为并列关系,应填名词owner,表示"主人"。
⑧考查连词。此处是not only...but(also)...结构,故填but。
⑨考查冠词。短语play an important role in...表示"在……中起重要作用"。
⑩考查形容词。此处修饰名词soldiers,应用形容词wounded,表示"(身体)受伤的;负伤的"。
25、答案：ACDFG
解析：①根据空后的"Meanwhile they can be viewed as digital downloads on a computer"可知,同时,它们可以被当作数字化下载资源下载到电脑里(阅读)。本空与空后一句为并列关系,故A项"电子书可以在很多电子阅读器上阅读"符合语境。故选A。
②根据空前的"The digital format(格式)has also allowed private book collectors to leave their e-book libraries on the Internet"可知,数字化格式还允许私人图书收藏家将他们的电子书图书馆放在互联网上。本空与上句内容联系紧密,描述他们这样做带来的意义。C项中的they 指的是上句中的private book collectors,与上文语意连贯。故选C。
③空前讲到大多数纸质书籍由于湿气、霉菌、老鼠、火灾等原因只能保存10-20年。本空与空前内容为对比关系,说明与纸质书不同的是,电子书可能可以保存数千年。故选D。
④根据下文可知,现在许多图书馆除了有实体书外,还有电子书图书馆。由此可推断,数字图书的普及对公共图书馆系统产生了巨大的影响。故选F。
⑤根据上文可知,电子书也有一些缺点,比如有些文本和其他资源根本不能以电子格式提供;根据空后的"A person wishing to look at these resources has to visit a traditional library"可知,想要查看这些资源的人必须去传统的图书馆。由此可知,本空起承上启下的作用,所以此处可能是通过事例说明哪些资源是不提供电子格式的。由此可知G项与文意相符。
26、答案：①A；②D；③C；④F；⑤G
解析：①根据空前“We always want to turn on the air conditioner to cool down.(我们总是打开空调来降温，)”可知，我们打开空调降温，这会很费电，A项“That means high energy bills(这意味着高昂的能源账单。)”符合语境，是对上文的结果说明。故选A项。
②根据上文“While this may seem to be almost too simple and too straightforward a method to keep your home nice and cool, it really does work.(虽然这似乎是一个让你的家保持凉爽的方法太简单太直接了，但它真的很有效。)”可知,用窗帘遮挡阳光是有效果的。而D项“Nearly 30%of all unwanted heat comes through your windows(近30%的多余热量都是从窗户进来的。)”给出一个论据支持这个做法，由此再引出下文的结果。故选D项。
③此处是本段小标题,根据空后“Make sure that your doors are as air-tight as possible so that you can prevent cool air from escaping and hot air from entering your home at the same time.(确保你的门尽可能密封，这样你就可以防止冷空气和热空气同时进入你的家。）”可知，本段主要是在介绍方法之一，即控制门的密封性，空处为本段的主题句，所以C项“Keep a better control of your entrance(更好地控制你的入口)）”符合题意。C项中的entrance 即下文的doors。故选C项。
④根据本段小标题Keep your body cool(保持身体凉爽)可知，此处与人的自身有关。根据下文“Drink ice cold water, keep coly packs pressed to your neck or your wrists, and do anything else you can do to keep your core body temperature down.(喝冰水，把冷袋压在脖子或手腕上，做任何你能做的事情来降低你的核心体温。）”可知，这里介绍的是让自身从内到外凉快下来的方法。由此可知，F项“Cooling yourself from the inside can affect how you feel on the outside(从内部降温会影响你在外部的感觉）”符合题意。故选F项。
⑤根据上文“These inexpensive air conditioners work amazingly well to cool down one room of your home.(这些便宜的空调能让你家里的一个房间凉快下来。）”可知,G项“You can expect to pay only about $20 per month to use them 8 hours per day(预计你每天使用这种空调8小时只需支付20美元)”具体给出了使用这种空调的好处， 且G项中的them 指代的是前一句的“These inexpensive air conditioners.”。故选G项。
27、答案：①-⑤BFGCE
解析：①推理判断题。根据上文The oral exam （口试） is a long-held tradition in many schools and subjects.（口试是许多学校和学科的长期传统。）以及下文的Students must then answer properly（然后学生们必须正确地回答）可知，空格前引出了口试，空格后要求学生们正确回答。所以B选项"它以口头形式向学生提出问题。"符合语境，选项中的questions"问题"呼应了 下文的answer"回答"，选项中的"in spoken form"以口头形式符合上文说的oral exam"口试"。故选B。②段落大意题。根据下文的As part of the completion of a program at the undergraduate or graduate levels，students might need to prove their knowledge and understanding of a subject area.Many science majors finish Bachelor s studies with oral exams，or a particular program may require oral and written exams that show how a student has taken in all the materials learned in a four-year period.（作为完成本科或研究生课程的一部分，学生可能需要证明他们对某-学科领域的知识和理解。许多理科专业的学生都是通过口试来完成学士学位学习的，或者某个专业可能需要通过口试和笔试来证明学生在四年期间对学习材料吸收的怎么样。）可知，这一段是在举例说明许多学校的学生需要通过口试来证明他们的学习情况。该题放在句首，用来引出整段内容，所以F选项"在大学里有很多使用口试的例子。"符合语境。故选F。③推理判断题。根据上文Usually study guides are available for these exams（通常这些考试都有学习指南。）可知，空格前提到针对于口试有学习指南，使学生们可以对于考试有所准备，所以G选项"因此，有准备的学生往往不会对被问到的问题感到惊讶。"与前句构成因果关系，符合语境。故选G。④推理判断题。根据上文One valuable tip for students to succeed is to practice before the exam.（学生要想成功，一个很重要的建议就是考前练习。）和根据下文But by answering questions classmates or family ask them students can do as many practices as possible.（但是通过回答同学或家人问他们的问题，学生可以做尽可能多的练习。）可知，空格前建议学生们提前练习，空格后说学生们应该尽可能多地练习，且空格与其后的句子为转折关系，所以C选项"他们可能无法预测所有的问题。"符合语境，告诉学生们虽然无法预测到所有的问题，但也要尽可能多地练习。故选C。⑤细节理解题。根据后文When waiting outside the test room，taking a deep breath and reminding themselves that the oral exam is a nice way to show off how much knowledge has been learned from teachers can help overcome stressful moments. Also, any other relaxation techniques that help can be used（在考场外等候时，做个深呼吸，提醒自己口试是炫耀自己从老师那里学到了多少知识的好方法，这有助于克服紧张时刻。此外，任何有帮助的其他的放松技巧都可以使用。）可知，空格后是在告诉学生们克服口试紧张的方法，所以空格处应该提到口试紧张的坏处，之后告诉学生们怎么去克服口试紧张。E选项"紧张甚至会让最聪明的学生陷入困境。"符合语境。故选E。

一、阅读理解
As the world's resources become fewer because of continuing land development and the growing human population, the natural habitats of wild animals have continued to reduce. As a result, the survival of some species of wildlife is threatened. To help protect wildlife, a lot of practice should be carried out by the general public.
Create homes for species that are endangered because of losing their own natural habitats. Wildlife shelters should be developed, and habitats should be created in existing national parks. Efforts should also be made to protect existing habitats, such as providing food and water and limiting hunting. Breed(培育)endangered species in places such as zoos. Once the young animals grow up, they can be set free into the wild where their population will continue to grow.
The general public may not realize that a species is endangered until it's too late. Educational programs making use of TV advertising and instructional meetings at national parks can be used to make the public aware of the situation.
The general public can help protect the wildlife by not hunting wild animals for sport or for a source of food. They should also stop supporting those who earn money from the illegal hunting of wild animals, such as hunters who hunt wild animals for the only purpose of selling them for money.
If there is no market for wild animals, there will be no killing of these endangered species. The public should avoid keeping wild animals as pets. This will limit the number of wild animals being tracked, trapped, sold and removed from their natural habitats.

D.The general public is doing nothing about protecting the wildlife now.
4、In which column of a newspaper can we find the passage

In 1916, two girls of wealthy families, best friends from Auburn, N.Y.—Dorothy Woodruff and Rosamond Underwood—traveled to a settlement in the Rocky Mountains to teach in a one-room schoolhouse. The girls had gone to Smith College. They wore expensive clothes. So for them to move to Elkhead, Colo. to instruct the children whose shoes were held together with string was a surprise. Their stay in Elkhead is the subject of Nothing Daunted: The Unexpected Education of Two Society Girls in the West by Dorothy Wickenden, who is a magazine editor and Dorothy Woodruff's granddaughter.
Why did they go then Well, they wanted to do something useful. Soon, however, they realized what they had undertaken.
They moved in with a local family, the Harrisons, and, like them, had little privacy, rare baths, and a blanket of snow on their quilt when they woke up in the morning. Some mornings, Rosamond and Dorothy would arrive at the schoolhouse to find the children weeping from the cold. In spring, the snow was replaced by mud over ice.
In Wickenden's book, she expanded on the history of the West and also on feminism, which of course influenced the girls' decision to go to Elkhead. A hair-raising section concerns the building of the railroads, which entailed(牵涉) drilling through the Rockies, often in blinding snowstorms. The book ends with Rosamond and Dorothy's return to Auburn.
Wickenden is a very good storyteller. The sweep of the land and the stoicism(坚忍) of the people move her to some beautiful writing. Here is a picture of Dorothy Woodruff, on her horse, looking down from a hill top: "When the sun slipped behind the mountains, it shed a rosy glow all around them. Then a full moon rose. The snow was marked only by small animals: foxes, coyotes, mice, and varying hares, which turned white in the winter."
5、Why did Dorothy and Rosamond go to the Rocky Mountains
A. To teach in a school. B. To study American history.
C. To write a book. D. To do sightseeing.
6、What can we learn about the girls from paragraph 3
A. They enjoyed much respect. B. They had a room with a bathtub.
C. They lived with the local kids. D. They suffered severe hardships.
7、Which part of Wickenden's writing is hair-raising
A. The extreme climate of Auburn. B. The living conditions in Elkhead.
C. The railroad building in the Rockies. D. The natural beauty of the West.
8、What is the text
A. A news report. B. A book review.
C. A children's story. D. A diary entry.

Young adults have strong positive memories of the music their parents loved when they were the same age, a study finds.
Participants in a study on musical memory said they remembered and loved the music that was popular in the early 1980s, when their parents were young. They also relished the music of the 1960s, which their grandparents may have been playing while changing their mom’s diapers (尿布). “They would hear this music and say, ‘Oh yeah, that’s my parents’ music,’ with obvious fondness,” says Carol Lynne Krumhansl, the psychology professor at Cornell University who led the study.
The scientists had been testing musical memory in an earlier study, and were surprised to find that college age participants could recognize older pop and rock songs just as quickly as the new stuff. Even more surprisingly, they liked the older stuff more. Therefore, the researchers decided to find out what was happening, using clips (片段) from hits on Billboard lists between 1955 and 2009. More than 60 student volunteers (average age 20) listened to short clips of the top two pop and rock songs of each year. The researchers quizzed them about which songs they recognized, how much they liked them and their emotional responses. They were also asked if they had memories associated with the songs and whether those memories were from listening with parents, alone, or with others.
“We didn’t have any idea that young adults had the strongest personal memories of the music of the early 1980s”, Krumhansl said. She and her colleague, Justin Adam Zupnick of the University of California, were even more surprised to see the second “reminiscence bump (回忆高峰)” in emotion and memory for top hits was from 1965 to 1969.
The connection to parents’ music isn’t entirely surprising. Music plays a central role in bringing up a child. Songs are taught at home and school and heard more informally as part of the home environment. The songs parents choose to listen to reflect their taste, their values, and their era. Besides, music is a powerful cue (提示) for calling up strong personal memories — when you made a new friend at the summer camp or the blue dress you wore to a party. And the human brain remembers music in great detail, unlike spoken words, in which people remember just the general meaning.
The 1960s music may evoke strong memories in people in their twenties because of the quality, Krumhansl guesses. She thinks the students might have memories of the 1960s music because it lives on as classics. Technology may also be a factor. The introduction of cassette tapes in the 1960s made music more ubiquitous (普遍存在的), and the same tapes were played long after that decade ended.
Next, Krumhansl wants to find out if other generations have the same experiences with music, and try to trace influences back through multiple generations.

Timothy is a 5-year-old boy with autism(自闭症). In October of 2018, doctors told his parents that he suffered brain tumor(肿瘤).
Two thieves who specialized in stealing packages from people’s front gates had no idea that one of those packages contained a WWE wrestling belt belonging to Timothy. At the time, the belt was on the front gate of Sergio Moriers’s house, whose job was decorating stuff. “Timothy’s father doesn’t make a lot of money. But he wanted to give his son an amazing gift, and I told him I would do everything for free. I said, ‘Just ship it over and I’ll do everything you want on the belt, and he’ll have the belt of a lifetime.” He said.
When the belt was taken, Sergio was extremely disturbed, “I want them to know they took hope from a 5-year-old boy who is looking forward to that item coming back to him… You stole that from him. You broke a child’s heart.” Timothy’s father shared what that belt meant to his son, “Timothy would not go anywhere without that belt… Most kids have balls, while he had a belt.” All hope was lost.
Then something unexpected happened. “I saw two women appeared at the gate. They put down the bag there. My guard went over and I realized what was happening. That bag contained the stolen wrestling belt,” Sergio said. The two women apologized to Sergio. They said that they were thrown out of a friend’s apartment after the friend saw the news report of the theft on TV. In fact, they were trying to kick a drug habit. They cried with guilt and shame.
Seeing the returned belt, Timothy’s father said, “It’s one of those things you always hear about, those crazy stories about people, but you never think it’ll happen to yourself. I’m still taken aback, to be honest.”
16、What was Sergio’s original intention
A. To buy the boy a wonderful gift.

C. He was astonished at the returned belt.
D. He couldn’t believe his stuff was stolen.

I’m a seventeen-year-old boy preparing for my A Level exams at the end of the year. In the society where my peers and I live, we tend to accept the rat race values. As students, we want to get good grades so that we can get good jobs. I enjoy studying and have consistently received A’s in my classes. There was a year when I finished first in my class in the final exams. It was a great accomplishment.
Another one I am pleased with is that I managed to improve the relationship between Mum and Dad. Dad was a successful businessman who was rarely at home. Mum was a housewife who always felt bored and constantly nagged (唠叨) him to let her go to work. Their constant arguing bothered me, so I advised Dad that Mum would be better off with a part-time job. He agreed, and their relationship has improved since then.
My most proud achievement, however, is my successful work in the local old folks’ home. My grandparents had raised me since I was a child. I wept (哭泣) bitterly when they died. Unlike many of my classmates, I do not take part in my school’s community service to earn points. I enjoy my voluntary work and believe I’m contributing to a worthwhile cause. This is where I can help. I talk to the elderly, assist them with their daily life, and listen to their problems, glory days and the hardships they experienced.
Last year, I hosted a successful New Year party for the elderly and they enjoyed a great time. Many expressed a desire to attend another party the following year. When I reflect on my accomplishments, I’m especially proud of my service at the old folks’ home, so I hope to study social work at university and work as a social worker in the future. I wish to be more skilled in attending to the less fortunate as well as find great satisfaction in it.

24、答案：copies; was performed; fighting; whose; is; actually; owner; but; an; wounded
解析： 这是一篇说明文,介绍了有关英国著名作家Michael Morpurgo的小说《战马》的一些情况。
①考查名词复数。copy表示"(书、报纸等的)一本,一册,一份"时为可数名词,根据空前的few可知,应用复数形式。
②考查动词的时态和语态。句子主语War Horse与谓语动词perform之间为被动关系,故应用被动语态;又根据时间状语in 2005可知,应用一般过去时。
③考查非谓语动词。分析句子结构可知,空处在句中作定语修饰soldiers,表示"在前线打仗的士兵",由于soldiers与fight之间为逻辑上的主谓关系,故用动词-ing形式。
④考查定语从句。分析句子结构可知,空处引导定语从句,先行词为people,且关系词在从句中作定语,故用whose。
⑤考查时态和主谓一致。分析句子结构可知,空处为句子谓语,主语是主语从句What makes it special,且此处表示一般情况,故填is。
⑥考查副词。句中is为动词,应用副词修饰,故应填actually。
⑦考查词形转换。空处与friend为并列关系,应填名词owner,表示"主人"。
⑧考查连词。此处是not only...but(also)...结构,故填but。
⑨考查冠词。短语play an important role in...表示"在……中起重要作用"。
⑩考查形容词。此处修饰名词soldiers,应用形容词wounded,表示"(身体)受伤的;负伤的"。
25、答案：ACDFG
解析：①根据空后的"Meanwhile they can be viewed as digital downloads on a computer"可知,同时,它们可以被当作数字化下载资源下载到电脑里(阅读)。本空与空后一句为并列关系,故A项"电子书可以在很多电子阅读器上阅读"符合语境。故选A。
②根据空前的"The digital format(格式)has also allowed private book collectors to leave their e-book libraries on the Internet"可知,数字化格式还允许私人图书收藏家将他们的电子书图书馆放在互联网上。本空与上句内容联系紧密,描述他们这样做带来的意义。C项中的they 指的是上句中的private book collectors,与上文语意连贯。故选C。
③空前讲到大多数纸质书籍由于湿气、霉菌、老鼠、火灾等原因只能保存10-20年。本空与空前内容为对比关系,说明与纸质书不同的是,电子书可能可以保存数千年。故选D。
④根据下文可知,现在许多图书馆除了有实体书外,还有电子书图书馆。由此可推断,数字图书的普及对公共图书馆系统产生了巨大的影响。故选F。
⑤根据上文可知,电子书也有一些缺点,比如有些文本和其他资源根本不能以电子格式提供;根据空后的"A person wishing to look at these resources has to visit a traditional library"可知,想要查看这些资源的人必须去传统的图书馆。由此可知,本空起承上启下的作用,所以此处可能是通过事例说明哪些资源是不提供电子格式的。由此可知G项与文意相符。
26、答案：①A；②D；③C；④F；⑤G
解析：①根据空前“We always want to turn on the air conditioner to cool down.(我们总是打开空调来降温，)”可知，我们打开空调降温，这会很费电，A项“That means high energy bills(这意味着高昂的能源账单。)”符合语境，是对上文的结果说明。故选A项。
②根据上文“While this may seem to be almost too simple and too straightforward a method to keep your home nice and cool, it really does work.(虽然这似乎是一个让你的家保持凉爽的方法太简单太直接了，但它真的很有效。)”可知,用窗帘遮挡阳光是有效果的。而D项“Nearly 30%of all unwanted heat comes through your windows(近30%的多余热量都是从窗户进来的。)”给出一个论据支持这个做法，由此再引出下文的结果。故选D项。
③此处是本段小标题,根据空后“Make sure that your doors are as air-tight as possible so that you can prevent cool air from escaping and hot air from entering your home at the same time.(确保你的门尽可能密封，这样你就可以防止冷空气和热空气同时进入你的家。）”可知，本段主要是在介绍方法之一，即控制门的密封性，空处为本段的主题句，所以C项“Keep a better control of your entrance(更好地控制你的入口)）”符合题意。C项中的entrance 即下文的doors。故选C项。
④根据本段小标题Keep your body cool(保持身体凉爽)可知，此处与人的自身有关。根据下文“Drink ice cold water, keep coly packs pressed to your neck or your wrists, and do anything else you can do to keep your core body temperature down.(喝冰水，把冷袋压在脖子或手腕上，做任何你能做的事情来降低你的核心体温。）”可知，这里介绍的是让自身从内到外凉快下来的方法。由此可知，F项“Cooling yourself from the inside can affect how you feel on the outside(从内部降温会影响你在外部的感觉）”符合题意。故选F项。
⑤根据上文“These inexpensive air conditioners work amazingly well to cool down one room of your home.(这些便宜的空调能让你家里的一个房间凉快下来。）”可知,G项“You can expect to pay only about $20 per month to use them 8 hours per day(预计你每天使用这种空调8小时只需支付20美元)”具体给出了使用这种空调的好处， 且G项中的them 指代的是前一句的“These inexpensive air conditioners.”。故选G项。
27、答案：①-⑤BFGCE
解析：①推理判断题。根据上文The oral exam （口试） is a long-held tradition in many schools and subjects.（口试是许多学校和学科的长期传统。）以及下文的Students must then answer properly（然后学生们必须正确地回答）可知，空格前引出了口试，空格后要求学生们正确回答。所以B选项"它以口头形式向学生提出问题。"符合语境，选项中的questions"问题"呼应了 下文的answer"回答"，选项中的"in spoken form"以口头形式符合上文说的oral exam"口试"。故选B。②段落大意题。根据下文的As part of the completion of a program at the undergraduate or graduate levels，students might need to prove their knowledge and understanding of a subject area.Many science majors finish Bachelor s studies with oral exams，or a particular program may require oral and written exams that show how a student has taken in all the materials learned in a four-year period.（作为完成本科或研究生课程的一部分，学生可能需要证明他们对某-学科领域的知识和理解。许多理科专业的学生都是通过口试来完成学士学位学习的，或者某个专业可能需要通过口试和笔试来证明学生在四年期间对学习材料吸收的怎么样。）可知，这一段是在举例说明许多学校的学生需要通过口试来证明他们的学习情况。该题放在句首，用来引出整段内容，所以F选项"在大学里有很多使用口试的例子。"符合语境。故选F。③推理判断题。根据上文Usually study guides are available for these exams（通常这些考试都有学习指南。）可知，空格前提到针对于口试有学习指南，使学生们可以对于考试有所准备，所以G选项"因此，有准备的学生往往不会对被问到的问题感到惊讶。"与前句构成因果关系，符合语境。故选G。④推理判断题。根据上文One valuable tip for students to succeed is to practice before the exam.（学生要想成功，一个很重要的建议就是考前练习。）和根据下文But by answering questions classmates or family ask them students can do as many practices as possible.（但是通过回答同学或家人问他们的问题，学生可以做尽可能多的练习。）可知，空格前建议学生们提前练习，空格后说学生们应该尽可能多地练习，且空格与其后的句子为转折关系，所以C选项"他们可能无法预测所有的问题。"符合语境，告诉学生们虽然无法预测到所有的问题，但也要尽可能多地练习。故选C。⑤细节理解题。根据后文When waiting outside the test room，taking a deep breath and reminding themselves that the oral exam is a nice way to show off how much knowledge has been learned from teachers can help overcome stressful moments. Also, any other relaxation techniques that help can be used（在考场外等候时，做个深呼吸，提醒自己口试是炫耀自己从老师那里学到了多少知识的好方法，这有助于克服紧张时刻。此外，任何有帮助的其他的放松技巧都可以使用。）可知，空格后是在告诉学生们克服口试紧张的方法，所以空格处应该提到口试紧张的坏处，之后告诉学生们怎么去克服口试紧张。E选项"紧张甚至会让最聪明的学生陷入困境。"符合语境。故选E。

46、答案：①choice②a③excitedly④relaxed⑤On⑥which/that⑦buildings⑧travelling⑨were⑩to leave
解析：①本题主要考查名词。结合句意:从繁华的城市直奔而来,我将凤凰视为呼吸新鲜空气的更好选择。根据上文“a better”可知应填单数名词choice,作介词as的宾语。故正确答案为choice。
②本题主要考查冠词。结合句意:我去凤凰参观的时候,是七月。结合句意表示“参观,访问”可知短语为pay a visit to。故正确答案为a。
③本题主要考查副词。结合句意:我的朋友和我兴奋地探索着,沿着古老的城墙漫步,穿过美丽的古桥。修饰动词explored,应用副词excitedly,作状语。故正确答案为excitedly。
④本题主要考查形容词。结合句意:那里的人都很放松。根据上文were可知应填形容词作表语,且主语为People,故应用-ed结尾的形容词relaxed,表示“放松的”。故正确答案为relaxed。
⑤本题主要考查介词。结合句意:第一天晚上,我们买了麻辣凉面,在河岸边边吃边看夕阳。根据后文“the first evening”可知表示在具体某天的晚上要用介词on。句首单词首字母要大写。故正确答案为On。
⑥本题主要考查定语从句。结合句意:我们住在一家小旅馆里,它和村里许多传统建筑很相似。分析句子结构可知,此处为定语从句修饰先行词hotel,且先行词在从句中作主语,指物,故用关系代词which/that 引导从句。故正确答案为which/that。
⑦本题主要考查名词的数。结合句意:我们住在一家小旅馆里,它和村里许多传统建筑很相似。building为可数名词,根据空前的“many of”可知,此处应用名词复数。故正确答案为buildings。
⑧本题主要考查非谓语动词。结合句意:从我们的窗口可以听到急促的水声和兴奋的游客乘坐小船顺流而下的声音。分析句子结构可知travel在句中应用非谓语动词形式,与逻辑主语tourists构成主动关系,故用现在分词作定语。故正确答案为travelling。
⑨本题主要考查动词时态和主谓一致。结合句意:虽然来凤凰的游客很多,但在这期间我们没有看到任何其他的外国人。根据后文“we did not see any other foreigner during our stay”可知,此处陈述的是过去的事情,故用一般过去时,且此处是there be句型,主语是many visitors,故谓语动词应用复数。故正确答案为were。
⑩本题主要考查非谓语动词。结合句意:过了几天,我还是不愿意离开。结合句意表示“不愿意做某事”可知短语为be unwilling to do sth.。故正确答案为to leave。
