As a child, I was proud of my southern origin. My own voice reflected my family’s past and present-part northern Mississippi, part Tennessee, all southern. There was no sound I loved more than my grandmother’s accent: thick, sweet, warm.
While growing up, I began to realize outside of our region, southerners were often dismissed as uncultured and ignorant. I was ready to leave behind my tiny town in West Tennessee, starting a new life and jumping at big chances in some far-off cities. In that embarrassing space between “teen” and “adult”, my accent was a symbol of everything I thought I hated about my life in the rural South. I feared it would disqualify me from being a noted magazine writer. I would have to talk less “country”. So I killed a piece of myself. I’m ashamed of it, but I’m more ashamed that I tried to kill that part of someone else-change Emily’s accent.
I met Emily in college. She was determined to work for the student newspaper, which was where I spent most of my waking hours, and we became friends. She, unlike me, accepted her roots. Early in our friendship, her mother asked where I was from, assuming it was somewhere up north. Then I felt my efforts paid off and even wanted to ignore the mistake.
Emily is two years younger and she cared about my opinion. I advised her to be more like me and hide her signature Manchester accent. I stressed that throughout our college years, often by making fun of her vowel (元音) sounds. I told myself I was helping her achieve her dream of working as a reporter. Now, I see that it was actually about justifying my hiding part of myself.
Grandma Carolyn used to tell me, “Girl, don’t forget where you come from.” Now I truly understand that. Many things have faded from memory, but this sticks in my mind with uncomfortable clarity. Now that I am grown and have left the South, it’s important to me.
4. What made the author want to leave her hometown
A. Appeal of convenience in cities.
B. Her dream of becoming a writer.
C. Outside prejudice against southerners.
D. Her desire for the northern accent.
5. How did the author feel about the mistake of Emily’s mother
A. Upset. B. Pleased. C. Ashamed. D. Surprised.
6. Why on earth did the author try to change Emily’s accent
A. To prove herself right. B. To help Emily be a reporter.
C. To make herself influential. D. To protect Emily’s self-dignity.
7. What message does the text want to convey
A. Stay true to your roots. B. Never do things by halves.
C. Hold on to your dreams. D. Never judge a person by his accent.
C
Little kids can pick up a new language pretty easily. It’s supposed to be far harder for older children. But that conclusion (结论) might not be correct. The window on when people can learn a language well appears to last until around age 17 or 18.
Earlier research had suggested we’re best at learning grammar in early childhood. Then we hit a dead end around age 5. But that’s not so, said Joshua Hartshorne and his colleagues.
Hartshorne surveyed tens of thousands of people online. He began by asking volunteers to take an online English grammar test. He used their answers to guess their native languages. After completing the test, volunteers answered questions about where they had lived the languages they had spoken from birth and the age at which they first started learning English. It also asked how long they’d lived in an English-speaking country.
Hartshorne’s group analyzed (分析) responses from 669,498 native and non-native speakers of English. If people moved to a new country and began speaking English by age 10 to 12, they finally spoke it as well as those who had learned both English and another language from birth, the researchers found.
The results further showed that around age 17, people’s ability to learn grammar took a nosedive and that those who started learning English after age 10 or 12 never reached the same level of English proficiency (熟练) as people who started younger. Why The researchers think it’s because they had fewer years to practice before their skills dropped off at 17.
However, they found language learning did not end at 17 and people’s English skills kept improving slightly until around age 30. This was true among both native speakers and those who learned English as a second language, the new study found.
8 How did Hartshorne do the survey
A. He paid his friends to do it. B. He surveyed thousands of students.
C. He interviewed passers-by. D. He carried out the survey online.
9. Which of the following best explains “took a nosedive” underlined in paragraph 5
A. Fell. B. Changed. C. Counted. D. Rose.
10. What do the researchers say about language learning
A. It requires few skills. B. It keeps people smarter.
C. It ends at the age of 17. D. It needs more practice.
11. What is the text mainly about
A. A learning guide. B. A study on language learning.
C. An English speaker. D. A survey on grammar rules.
D
“Running is so natural—it’s something we’ve been doing for thousands of years, and it’s something very enjoyable.” The words of Tao Geoghegan Hart, a professional (专业的) cyclist. As an ambassador (大使) for The Daily Mile, a movement that calls for one simple thing—15 minutes of daily exercise, where children run, walk, jog or skip one mile—he encourages any form of exercise and movement.
Geoghegan Hart sees schools as key to setting young people up for life with good sporting habits. “When you’re school age, sport can encourage you and take hold of you and change you more than at any other age,” he explains. “Yes, we all go on journeys with sport, but when you look back at those journeys, they start with your childhood.”
One big attraction of taking part in The Daily Mile is that it is a cost-free way in which schools can encourage regular exercise. Geoghegan Hart says he hopes The Daily Mile will encourage children to try and be more active in the future. “Something as simple as The Daily Mile can lead to much more,” he says.
At Cowley Hill Primary School, head teacher Louise Thomas says that they’ve found the movement has had a great positive influence upon the lives of their learners. Charlie Honour, year-5 teacher and PE subject leader at St Peter’s School, says that although the activity takes place out on the field, it has classroom benefits (效益,受益), too. “I find that the children are more willing to complete class work,” says Honour. “I think it is because they know they will soon be outside and getting some fresh air.”
12. What can be learned about The Daily Mile from paragraph 1
A. It is a sports club. B. It is a cycling race.
C. It is a call for exercise. D. It is a plan for running tests.
13. Why does Geoghegan Hart want children for The Daily Mile
A. They are easily encouraged.
B. They are more likely to benefit.
C. They have more time for sports.
D. They have teachers to coach them.
14. What does Geoghegan Hart expect of The Daily Mile
A. It’ll attract more schools to it.
B. It’ll start more similar projects.
C. It’ll get more support from the government.
D. It’ll push children to lead a more active life.
15. What do the two teachers’ words show about The Daily Mile
A. Its influence on students.
B. Its influence on teachers.
C. Its differences among schools.
D. Its differences among players.

As a child, I was proud of my southern origin. My own voice reflected my family’s past and present-part northern Mississippi, part Tennessee, all southern. There was no sound I loved more than my grandmother’s accent: thick, sweet, warm.
While growing up, I began to realize outside of our region, southerners were often dismissed as uncultured and ignorant. I was ready to leave behind my tiny town in West Tennessee, starting a new life and jumping at big chances in some far-off cities. In that embarrassing space between “teen” and “adult”, my accent was a symbol of everything I thought I hated about my life in the rural South. I feared it would disqualify me from being a noted magazine writer. I would have to talk less “country”. So I killed a piece of myself. I’m ashamed of it, but I’m more ashamed that I tried to kill that part of someone else-change Emily’s accent.
I met Emily in college. She was determined to work for the student newspaper, which was where I spent most of my waking hours, and we became friends. She, unlike me, accepted her roots. Early in our friendship, her mother asked where I was from, assuming it was somewhere up north. Then I felt my efforts paid off and even wanted to ignore the mistake.
Emily is two years younger and she cared about my opinion. I advised her to be more like me and hide her signature Manchester accent. I stressed that throughout our college years, often by making fun of her vowel (元音) sounds. I told myself I was helping her achieve her dream of working as a reporter. Now, I see that it was actually about justifying my hiding part of myself.
Grandma Carolyn used to tell me, “Girl, don’t forget where you come from.” Now I truly understand that. Many things have faded from memory, but this sticks in my mind with uncomfortable clarity. Now that I am grown and have left the South, it’s important to me.
4. What made the author want to leave her hometown
A. Appeal of convenience in cities.
B. Her dream of becoming a writer.
C. Outside prejudice against southerners.
D. Her desire for the northern accent.
5. How did the author feel about the mistake of Emily’s mother
A. Upset. B. Pleased. C. Ashamed. D. Surprised.
6. Why on earth did the author try to change Emily’s accent
A. To prove herself right. B. To help Emily be a reporter.
C. To make herself influential. D. To protect Emily’s self-dignity.
7. What message does the text want to convey
A. Stay true to your roots. B. Never do things by halves.
C. Hold on to your dreams. D. Never judge a person by his accent.
【答案】4. C 5. B 6. A 7. A
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇记叙文。文章讲述作者因为别人的偏见以及追求更好的生活改变自己的口音，但后来才意识到这样做抹杀了自己身份的一部分，也明白了要坚守本根。
【4题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段的“While growing up, I began to realize outside of our region, southerners were often dismissed as uncultured and ignorant. I was ready to leave behind my tiny town in West Tennessee, starting a new life and jumping at big chances in some far-off cities.(在成长过程中，我开始意识到，在我们的地区之外，南方人经常被认为是没有文化和无知的。我准备离开我在西田纳西州的小镇，开始新的生活，并在一些遥远的城市抓住大好机会)”可知，作者决定离开南部的家乡是因为其他人认为南方人没文化、无知，即外部对南方人的偏见。故选C。
【5题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段的“Early in our friendship, her mother asked where I was from, assuming it was somewhere up north. Then I felt my efforts paid off and even wanted to ignore the mistake.(在我们的友谊之初，她妈妈问我来自哪里，以为是北方的某个地方。然后我觉得我的努力得到了回报，甚至想忽略这个错误)”推知，当被Emily的妈妈误会来自北方时，作者是非常开心的。故选B。
【6题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段的“I feared it would disqualify me from being a noted magazine writer. I would have to talk less “country”. So I killed a piece of myself. (我担心这会使我失去成为著名杂志作家的资格。我就得少说些“乡村”了。所以我抹杀了自己身份的一部分)”，第三段的“She was determined to work for the student newspaper, which was where I spent most of my waking hours(她决心为校报工作，而我醒着的大部分时间都在那里度过的)”以及倒数第二段的“I advised her to be more like me and hide her signature Manchester accent. I stressed that throughout our college years, often by making fun of her vowel (元音) sounds. I told myself I was helping her achieve her dream of working as a reporter. (我建议她更像我，隐藏她标志性的曼彻斯特口音。在我们的大学生活中，我经常通过取笑她的元音来强调这一点。我告诉自己，我是在帮她实现当记者的梦想)”可知，作者通过改变自己的口音获得了在校报工作的机会。由此推知，作者努力改变Emily的口音是为了证明自己是对的，即改变南方口音就有可能获得好工作。故选A。
【7题详解】
推理判断题。通读全文，并结合第二段的“I’m ashamed of it, but I’m more ashamed that I tried to kill that part of someone else-change Emily’s accent.(我很惭愧，但我更惭愧的是我试图抹杀别人的那部分——改变艾米丽的口音)”和最后一段“Grandma Carolyn used to tell me, “Girl, don’t forget where you come from.” Now I truly understand that. Many things have faded from memory, but this sticks in my mind with uncomfortable clarity. (卡罗琳奶奶过去常对我说：“女孩，别忘了你来自哪里。”现在我真的明白了。许多事情已经从记忆中消失了，但这件事却以令人不安的清晰印象留在了我的脑海中)”可知，文章想要传达的信息是：坚守本根。故选A。
C
Little kids can pick up a new language pretty easily It’s supposed to be far harder for older children. But that conclusion (结论) might not be correct. The window on when people can learn a language well appears to last until around age 17 or 18.
Earlier research had suggested we’re best at learning grammar in early childhood. Then we hit a dead end around age 5. But that’s not so, said Joshua Hartshorne and his colleagues.
Hartshorne surveyed tens of thousands of people online. He began by asking volunteers to take an online English grammar test. He used their answers to guess their native languages. After completing the test, volunteers answered questions about where they had lived the languages they had spoken from birth and the age at which they first started learning English. It also asked how long they’d lived in an English-speaking country.
Hartshorne’s group analyzed (分析) responses from 669,498 native and non-native speakers of English. If people moved to a new country and began speaking English by age 10 to 12, they finally spoke it as well as those who had learned both English and another language from birth, the researchers found.
The results further showed that around age 17, people’s ability to learn grammar took a nosedive and that those who started learning English after age 10 or 12 never reached the same level of English proficiency (熟练) as people who started younger. Why The researchers think it’s because they had fewer years to practice before their skills dropped off at 17.
However, they found language learning did not end at 17 and people’s English skills kept improving slightly until around age 30. This was true among both native speakers and those who learned English as a second language, the new study found.
8. How did Hartshorne do the survey
A. He paid his friends to do it. B. He surveyed thousands of students.
C. He interviewed passers-by. D. He carried out the survey online.
9. Which of the following best explains “took a nosedive” underlined in paragraph 5
A. Fell. B. Changed. C. Counted. D. Rose.
10. What do the researchers say about language learning
A. It requires few skills. B. It keeps people smarter.
C. It ends at the age of 17. D. It needs more practice.
11. What is the text mainly about
A. A learning guide. B. A study on language learning.
C. An English speaker. D. A survey on grammar rules.
【答案】8. D 9. A 10. D 11. B
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了一项关于语言学习窗口的研究。
【8题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段“He began by asking volunteers to take an online English grammar test.(他开始要求志愿者参加在线英语语法测试)”可知，Hartshorne是通过志愿者在线测试、问答等方式开展调查工作的。故选D。
【9题详解】
词句猜测题。根据划线词组后文“those who started learning English after age 10 or 12 never reached the same level of English proficiency (熟练) as people who started younger. Why The researchers think it’s because they had fewer years to practice before their skills dropped off at 17.(而那些在10岁或12岁之后开始学习英语的人的英语水平从未达到更年轻的人的水平。为什么？研究人员认为，这是因为他们在17岁时技能下降之前练习的时间较少)”可知，took a nosedive是指在17岁左右时人们学习语法的能力是急剧下降的。由此推知，划线短语与选项A的意思最接近。故选A。
【10题详解】
推理判断题。根据第五段“The results further showed that around age 17, people’s ability to learn grammar took a nosedive and that those who started learning English after age 10 or 12 never reached the same level of English proficiency (熟练) as people who started younger. Why The researchers think it’s because they had fewer years to practice before their skills dropped off at 17.(研究结果进一步表明，在17岁左右，人们学习语法的能力急剧下降，而那些在10岁或12岁之后开始学习英语的人的英语水平从未达到更年轻的人的水平。为什么？研究人员认为，这是因为他们在17岁时技能下降之前练习的时间较少)”可推知，研究人员认为语言学习需要大量练习。故选D。
【11题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第一段“Little kids can pick up a new language pretty easily. It’s supposed to be far harder for older children. But that conclusion(结论) might not be correct. The window on when people can learn a language well appears to last until around age 17 or 18.(小孩子很容易学会一门新语言。对于年龄较大的孩子来说，这应该要困难得多。但这个结论可能不正确。人们何时能学好一门语言的窗口似乎要持续到17岁或18岁左右)”和第二段“Earlier research had suggested we’re best at learning grammar in early childhood. Then we hit a dead end around age 5. But that’s not so, said Joshua Hartshorne and his colleagues.(早期的研究表明，我们最擅长在幼儿时期学习语法。约书亚·哈特肖恩和他的同事说，然后我们在5岁左右就走到了死胡同。但事实并非如此)”可知，本文主要介绍了一项关于语言学习窗口的研究。故选B。

“Running is so natural—it’s something we’ve been doing for thousands of years, and it’s something very enjoyable.” The words of Tao Geoghegan Hart, a professional (专业的) cyclist. As an ambassador (大使) for The Daily Mile, a movement that calls for one simple thing—15 minutes of daily exercise, where children run, walk, jog or skip one mile—he encourages any form of exercise and movement.
Geoghegan Hart sees schools as key to setting young people up for life with good sporting habits. “When you’re school age, sport can encourage you and take hold of you and change you more than at any other age,” he explains. “Yes, we all go on journeys with sport, but when you look back at those journeys, they start with your childhood.”
One big attraction of taking part in The Daily Mile is that it is a cost-free way in which schools can encourage regular exercise. Geoghegan Hart says he hopes The Daily Mile will encourage children to try and be more active in the future. “Something as simple as The Daily Mile can lead to much more,” he says.
At Cowley Hill Primary School, head teacher Louise Thomas says that they’ve found the movement has had a great positive influence upon the lives of their learners. Charlie Honour, year-5 teacher and PE subject leader at St Peter’s School, says that although the activity takes place out on the field, it has classroom benefits (效益,受益), too. “I find that the children are more willing to complete class work,” says Honour. “I think it is because they know they will soon be outside and getting some fresh air.”
12. What can be learned about The Daily Mile from paragraph 1
A. It is a sports club. B. It is a cycling race.
C. It is a call for exercise. D. It is a plan for running tests.
13. Why does Geoghegan Hart want children for The Daily Mile
A. They are easily encouraged.
B. They are more likely to benefit.
C. They have more time for sports.
D. They have teachers to coach them.
14. What does Geoghegan Hart expect of The Daily Mile
A. It’ll attract more schools to it.
B. It’ll start more similar projects.
C. It’ll get more support from the government.
D. It’ll push children to lead a more active life.
15. What do the two teachers’ words show about The Daily Mile
A. Its influence on students.
B. Its influence on teachers.
C. Its differences among schools.
D. Its differences among players.
【答案】12. C 13. A 14. D 15. A
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍了The Daily Mile这个锻炼活动，以及对孩子的影响。
【12题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段中“As an ambassador for The Daily Mile, a movement that calls for one simple thing—15 minutes of daily exercise, where children run, walk, jog or skip one mile—he encourages any form of exercise and movement.(作为“每日一英里”运动的大使，他鼓励任何形式的锻炼和运动。“每日一英里”运动只号召一件简单的事情——每天锻炼15分钟，孩子们可以跑、走、慢跑或跳过一英里)”可知，The Daily Mile是对锻炼的号召。故选C项。
【13题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中“When you’re school age, sport can encourage you and take hold of you and change you more than at any other age.(当你到了上学的年龄，运动比其他任何年龄都更能鼓励你、抓住你、改变你)”可知，盖根·哈特想让The Daily Mile有孩子是因为他们很容易被鼓励。故选A项。
14题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段中“Geoghegan Hart says he hopes The Daily Mile will encourage children to try and be more active in the future. (Geoghegan Hart说，他希望“The Daily Mile”能鼓励孩子们在未来更积极地尝试)”可推知，Geoghegan Hart希望The Daily Mile能鼓励孩子们在未来更积极地尝试以至于他们他们能过更积极的生活。故选D项。
【15题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段“At Cowley Hill Primary School, head teacher Louise Thomas says that they’ve found the movement has had a great positive influence upon the lives of their learners. Charlie Honour, year-5 teacher and PE subject leader at St Peter’s School, says that although the activity takes place out on the field, it has classroom benefits, too. (在考利山小学，校长路易斯·托马斯说，他们发现这项运动对学生的生活产生了巨大的积极影响。圣彼德学校五年级教师兼体育学科带头人查理·欧诺说，尽管这项活动是在操场上进行的，但它也有课堂上的益处)”根据这两位老师所说，可推知The Daily Mile对学生产生了积极影响。故选A项。
第二节 (共5小题; 每小题2.5分, 满分12.5分)
阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
Did you take part in a camp this summer ___16___ To choose which camp is best for you, first you must do a bit of research.
Maybe you've never thought about it before, but every great summer camp has the same main goals — opportunity, challenge and growth.
Opportunity means you are given a chance to do something special. ___17___ For example, if you are interested in writing, then you can choose to join a journalism camp. You may even have the opportunity to meet famous journalists there.
___18___ You must finish the task and succeed in overcoming the challenge. Then you will have a sense of accomplishment. For example, you could take a lifeguard course at some summer camps. If you pass the exam, then you will receive a certificate (证书）to become a real lifeguard.
This also leads to the third and most important goal of every great summer camp personal growth. It doesn’t mean growing taller and stronger or more beautiful. It means seeing yourself improve, learning something new and doing something you didn’t know you could do before. ___19___.
So in the future, when choosing your next summer camp, remember to ask yourself: Is it a special opportunity Is it a challenge Will I grow
___20___ These will all happen naturally when you have the right goals at summer camp.
A. Challenge means you are given a task.
B. It also means becoming more confident in yourself.
C. Some camps focus on developing a certain skill or ability.
D. But what about friendship, fun and joy
E. There are so many summer camps and not all of them are the same.
F. Of course, summer camps aren't all about adventure or study.
G. It also makes you special because other kids don't have the same opportunity.
【答案】16. E 17. G 18. A 19. B 20. D
【解析】
【分析】本文是一篇说明文。文章要求你选择最适合你的夏令营。也许你以前从未想过，但每一个伟大的夏令营都有同样的主要目标——机遇、挑战和成长。
【16题详解】
下文提示“要选择哪个阵营对你来说是最好的，首先你必须做一些研究。”承接下文，E项There are so many summer camps and not all of them are the same.“有这么多夏令营，但并不是所有的夏令营都是一样的。”切题。该项中的not all of them are the same.与To choose which camp is best for you,相吻合。故选E。
【17题详解】
上文提示“机会意味着你有机会做一些特别的事情。”承接上文，G项It also makes you special because other kids don't have the same opportunity.“这也让你与众不同，因为其他孩子没有同样的机会。”切题。关键词opportunity。故选G。
【18题详解】
下文提示“你必须完成这项任务，并成功地克服挑战。”承接下文，A项Challenge means you are given a task.“挑战意味着你被赋予了一项任务。”切题。关键词Challenge和task。故选A。
【19题详解】
上文提示“这意味着看到你自己进步，学习新的东西，做一些你以前不知道你可以做的事情。”承接上文，B项It also means becoming more confident in yourself.“这也意味着你对自己更有信心。”切题。关键词also将上下句连在一起。故选B。
【20题详解】
上文提示“这是一个特殊的机会吗？这是一个挑战吗 我能长大吗 ”下文提示“当你在夏令营中有正确的目标时，这些都会自然而然地发生。”承接上下文，D项But what about friendship, fun and joy “但是友谊、乐趣和快乐呢？”切题。该项中的But用转折关系和上文连在一起；下文中的These指的就是该项内容what about friendship, fun and joy 故选D。
【点睛】做七选五时“当心文中小also”，also是“也”的意思，这就说明前文一定存在它的一个分支了，本题第4小题，前文交代“It means seeing yourself improve, learning something new and doing something you didn’t know you could do before.”虽然看上去很长的一句话，但是重点就三个单词“seeing yourself improve”，此时在空中填上“It also means becoming more confident in yourself.”，（关键词It also means becoming more confident）这样一对应就很工整了。当然“also”只是一个代表罢了，可以表示递进的词还有很多：what’ more, besides, in addition等等。

【37题详解】

【38题详解】
考查名词。句意：巴厘岛多样化的海洋生物是主要景点之一。空前是形容词，所以空处应填名词，attraction意为“景点”，为可数名词，根据one of可知用复数形式。故填attractions。
【39题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意：有些独特的生物只有在巴厘岛才有。分析知，本句已有谓语动词are，所以see用非谓语形式，和逻辑主语creatures之间是被动关系，所以用过去分词作后置定语。故填seen。
【40题详解】
考查冠词。句意：这片土地上还有几座活火山，吸引了许多科学团体来这里研究。根据语境可知，此处的land指的是上文提到的Bali，为特指，用定冠词修饰，位于句首，首字母应大写。故填The。

考查动词时态。句意：自古以来，巴厘岛文化不仅受到印度文化的影响，也受到中国文化的影响。分析知，have做本句谓语，根据时间状语since ancient times可知用现在完成时，主语是the culture of Bali，为第三人称单数。故填has had。
【45题详解】
考查副词。句意：中国新年是印尼华人普遍庆祝的节日。分析空处修饰空后的动词，应该用副词修饰。故填widely。
