三、阅读理解
Imagine a mass of floating waste is two times the size of the state of Texas.Texas has a land area of more than 678,000 square kilometres.So it might be difficult to imagine anything twice as big.
All together,this mass of waste flowing in the North Pacific Ocean is known as the Great Pacific Ocean Garbage Patch.It weighs about 3,500,000 tons.The waste includes bags,bottles and containers—plastic products of all kinds.
The eastern part of the Great Pacific Ocean Garbage Patch is about 1,600 kilometres west of California.The western part is west of the Hawaiian Islands and east of Japan.The area has been described as a kind of oceanic desert,with light winds and slow moving water currents.The water moves so slow that garbage from all over the world collects there.
In recent years,there have been growing concerns about the floating garbage and its effect on sea creatures and human health.Scientists say thousands of animals get trapped in the floating waste,resulting in death or injury.Even more die from a lack of food or water after swallowing pieces of plastic.The trash can also make animals feel full,diminishing their desire to eat or drink.
The floating garbage can also have harmful effects on people.There is an increased threat of infection of disease from polluted waste,and from eating fish that swallowed waste.Divers can also get trapped in the plastic.
Its existence first gained public attention in 1997.That was when racing boat captain and oceanographer Charles Moore and his crew sailed into the garbage while returning from a racing event.Several years earlier,another oceanographer learnt of the trash after a shipment of rubber ducks got lost at sea.Many of those toys are now part of the Great Pacific Ocean Garbage Patch.
1.The first paragraph is written to .
A.introduce the topic of the text
B.inspire readers’ imagination
C.develop readers’ interest in Texas

2.Whatdoestheunderlinedword“diminishing”inparagraph4mean
A.Increasing. B.Determining.
C.Weakening. D.Reserving.
答案:C
解析:词义猜测题。根据第四段倒数第二句“Evenmorediefromalackoffoodorwaterafterswallowingpiecesofplastic.”和下句中的“also”可知,垃圾也能使动物感到饱,减少它们吃东西的欲望。由此可知,画线词的意思是“减弱”。故选C项。

四、七选五阅读理解
People have been curious about the oceans.Thousands of years ago,people started building boats to help them explore the watery parts of the world.Boats let people find new hunting grounds and discover new lands. 1 The earliest boats were probably logs that people sat on as they floated downstream.Later,people made these logs more useful and comfortable by burning and scraping(刮掉) away the insides to make dugout boats and canoes. 2 They tied logs together to make rafts.They wove reeds and branches to make tidy little boats that are still used in many parts of the world today.They sewed animal skins together and filled them with air—like a float you might use in a swimming pool.They used paddles,poles,and oars to help steer,or to more upstream.Boats like the Greek trireme were big and heavy and hard to steer. 3 Soon people figured out how to use sails to catch the wind.Sailboats might only have one or two sails.But more sails meant more power,and fast tall ships could have dozens.People still use sailboats today,for cruising and racing.When steam engines were invented many years ago,boating became easier than ever. 4 As engines got bigger and better,so did boats.
Over the years,boats have been used for fishing,for fighting,for carrying goods,for fun—even for living on. 5
A.The world is a watery place.
B.It took hundreds of rowers to move a boat like that.
C.People experimented with different kinds of floating boats.
D.Boats have turned the world’s waterways into highways.
E.Until people learned to build boats,all this water was a barrier.
F.They carried people and goods farther than they’d ever gone before.
G.Ships with steam engines could sail long distances,even if there was no wind.
答案:1~5 FCBGD

导语:陆地上有很多美丽的景物让人目不暇接!你知道吗 神秘的海底同样是一个美丽的世界。下面就让我们去看一看吧!
The undersea world is very beautiful.Now more and more people want to dive in the water to find the secrets there. Scuba diving1 is an extremely popular sport today.It can take you into a wonderful and awesome2 undersea world.You will find many strange animals in the sea.Sometimes you will be scared3 to death!Some are as large as a school bus.Many sea animals give out light in the dark and some have sharp teeth.During the day,there is enough light.Here,under the sea,everything is blue and green.If you have bottles of air on your back,you can stay in deep water for a long time.However,you can’t dive too deep,and you must be very careful when you dive in deep water.
The deep sea is not an easy place to live in.It’s cold,and it’s dark,too.The deeper it is,the less sunlight there is.At about 3,000 feet,there is no light at all.It is very dark in the sea.Many fishes have no eyes.Some have big eyes.A few have eyes on one side.
Apart from4 the cold and the darkness,deep-sea animals face a third danger—other animals.Animals eat!They must find food to eat.Many animals eat plants.However,some animals eat meat.This means these sea animals have two big jobs.They need to find animals as food,and they have to try not to become other fierce5 animals’ meal.
译文:
海底世界是非常美丽的。现在越来越多的人想要潜水去发现那里的秘密。现在戴水肺潜水是一项非常受欢迎的运动。它能带你进入一个美妙又令人惊叹的海底世界。你会在海里发现很多奇特的动物。有时候你可能会吓死!有些(动物)和一辆校车一样大。很多海洋动物在黑暗中发光,有些(动物)有锋利的牙齿。在白天,有足够的光线。在这里,在海底,一切都是蓝色和绿色的。如果你的背上带着氧气瓶,你可以在深水中待上很长一段时间。然而,你不可以潜水到太深的地方,并且在深水中潜水时你必须非常小心。
深海不是容易居住的地方。它很冷,也很黑。越深的地方,太阳光就越少。在大约3,000英尺的地方,根本没有光。海里是非常黑暗的。很多鱼没有眼睛。有些(鱼)眼睛很大。一些(鱼)是在一侧长着眼睛。
除了寒冷和黑暗,深海动物还面临着第三个危险——其他动物。动物要吃东西!它们必须找食物吃。很多动物吃植物。然而,一些动物吃肉。这就意味着这些海洋动物有两大工作。它们需要找到动物作为食物,它们还得尽量不成为别的凶猛动物的食物。

三、阅读理解
Once upon a time there was a wise man that used to go to the ocean to do his writing.He had a habit of walking on the beach before he began his work.
One day he was walking along the shore.As he looked towards the beach,he saw a human figure moving like a dancer.He smiled to himself at the thought that someone would dance on the beach.So he began to walk faster to catch up.
As he got closer,he saw that it was a young man and the young man wasn’t dancing,but instead he was reaching down to the shore,picking up something and very gently throwing it into the ocean.
As he got closer,he called out,“Good morning!What are you doing ” The young man paused,looked up and replied,“Throwing starfish into the ocean.”
“I guess I should have asked,why are you throwing starfish into the ocean ”
“The sun is up and the tide is going out.And if I don’t throw them in,they’ll die.”
“But,young man,don’t you realise that there are miles and miles of beach and starfish all along it.You can’t possibly make a difference!”
The young man listened politely.Then he bent down,picked another starfish,threw it into the sea,and said,“It made a difference for that one.”
There is something very special in each and every one of us.We have all been gifted with the ability to make a difference.And if we can know that gift,we will gain through the strength of our visions the power to shape the future.
We must each find our starfish.And if we throw our starfish wisely and well,the world will be better.
1.One day,the wise man saw the young man .
A.dancing along the beach
B.walking with a dancer
C.picking up starfish for sale
D.trying to save as many starfish as possible
答案D

2.Theunderlinedwords“somethingveryspecial”referto .
A.thegiftsfromfriends
B.thestrengthofmakingadecision
C.ourownstarfish
D.theabilitytomakeadifference

解析词义猜测题。根据画线部分所在句子的后面两句“Wehaveallbeengiftedwiththeabilitytomakeadifference.Andifwecanknowthatgift,wewillgainthroughthestrengthofourvisionsthepowertoshapethefuture.”可知,我们都有影响世界的能力,如果我们知道这样的能力,我们就会得到塑造未来的力量。由此可知本句中的“somethingveryspecial”就是指影响世界的能力。故D项正确。
3.Thewritertoldthisstoryinordertoshowus .
A.howandwherewecanwriteagoodarticle
B.everyonecandosomethingforthefuture
C.wisemenaresometimesstupid
D.youngpeopleareactuallywiserthanoldpeople

动词不定式
动词不定式是动词的非谓语形式之一,有时态和语态的变化。在句法功能上,动词不定式与名词、形容词和副词的作用类似,在句中可以做主语、表语、宾语、定语、状语、宾语补足语等,但不能做谓语。
一、动词不定式的形式
基本形式:to+动词原形,有时动词不定式符号to可以省略。
否定形式:not to+动词原形。
二、动词不定式的功能
1.做主语
(1)动词不定式做主语时,表示具体的行为或将来的行为。谓语动词用单数。
To love and to be loved is the greatest happiness one can seek.

(2)为了避免头重脚轻,常用it做形式主语放在句首,做主语的动词不定式常置于句末。
It would be better for you to go there.
你还是去那儿好。
温馨提示
若要说明动词不定式表示的动作的发出者的话,要在动词不定式前加for或of引导的短语,构成“for/of+名词(或代词的宾格)+动词不定式”短语。
It’s easy for him to work out this maths problem.

Even now,several years after their astonishing act of group heroism,the dozens of people who risked their lives to save two boys from drowning in Panama City Beach,are still remembered.
The story began on July 8,2017.Members of the Ursrey family,eight in total,were enjoying an evening together at the beach.As the sun sank lower on the horizon,the two boys—Noah,11,and Stephen,8—took their skateboards and walked into the waves without the grown-ups noticing.When the boys were about 70 yards from shore,they realised that the water pulled them out to sea.After trying and failing to paddle back,they started waving and screaming for help.But the lifeguards had clocked out for the evening.
The boys had been struggling for several minutes when Brittany and Tabatha Monroe,a married couple from Georgia,wandered by.They didn’t see the boys at first,but they heard them.
They jumped into the water and easily reached the brothers,who were still in fairly shallow water.The woman reassured the frightened boys and seized their skateboards,telling them they would be safe and then discovered that they,too,were in a world of trouble.They couldn’t get back to shore and could barely and only occasionally hit the sandy bottom with their feet.After a few minutes,it was clear to the woman that they were all trapped in a terrible whirlpool.
Then scores of tourists were walking to them,hand in hand,forming a line.Soon the first person held the woman’s hand.In turn,her husband and the two boys joined her.The long line moved slowly until they were back to the safety of the beach.
The rescuers call it the Human Chain.But it was the deeply “human” aspect of the rescuers’ cooperation that made it so astonishing and successful.
24.What happened to the two boys
A.They got into deep sea by chance.
B.They couldn’t be seen in the sea.
C.They went out without supper.
D.They met with danger in the sea.

The researchers say a person loses two months for every kilogram overweight they are—and seven years for smoking a packet of cigarettes a day.
Unusually,the Edinburgh university team found their answers by analysing differences in people’s genetic code or DNA.Finally they think it will show new ways of helping us to live longer.
The group used the genetic code of more than 600,000 people who are taking part in a natural experiment.If someone smokes,drinks,drops out of school and is overweight,it can be difficult to identify the impact of one specific unhealthy behaviour.
Instead,the researchers turned to the natural experiment.Some people carry mutations(变异) in their DNA that increase or make them more likely to put on weight,so researchers were able to compare those programmed to eat more with those who were not.The research team also found specific mutations in human DNA that alter lifespan.
●Mutations in a gene(a set of instructions in DNA) that is involved in running the immune system could add seven months of life on average.
●People with a mutation that increased levels of bad cholesterol(胆固醇) knocked eight months off lifespan.
●A rare mutation in a gene—APOE—linked to dementia(痴呆) reduced lifespan by 11 months.
●And one that made smoking more appealing cut lives by five months.
Dr Joshi says that while genes do influence lifespan,“you’ve got even more influence” through the choices you make.Dr Joshi said,“We hope to discover genes affecting lifespan to give us new information about ageing and construct treatment for ageing.”
There are also some disease mutations that clearly affect lifespan to destructive effect,such as the Huntington’s gene.People with Huntington’s often die in their 20s.
However,in order to follow people until the end of their lives,many of the people studied were born before 1940.
28.What is the most difficult for the researchers to find
A.The differences in people’s genetic code.
B.The reasons why people put on weight very easily.
C.The results of many natural and massive experiments.
D.One bad behaviour’s effect on people with many bad behaviours.
答案:D
解析:推理判断题。根据第三段中的“Ifsomeonesmokes,drinks,dropsoutofschoolandisoverweight,itcanbedifficulttoidentifytheimpactofonespecificunhealthybehaviour.”可知,研究人员很难发现一种不良行为对有许多不良行为的人的影响(是怎样的)。故选D项。
29.Which of the following mutations affects lifespan most greatly
A.One linked to controlling the immune system.
B.One increasing unhealthy cholesterol.
C.One called APOE involved in dementia.
D.One making smoking more attractive.
答案:C
解析:细节理解题。根据“Araremutationinagene—APOE—linkedtodementiareducedlifespanby11months.”可知,一种叫作APOE的与痴呆症相关的基因变异对寿命的影响最大。故选C项。
30.What’s the meaning of Dr Joshi’s study

Scientists in England are using two self-directed water vehicles to explore the animal and plant life of the Celtic Sea.
The Celtic Sea is a body of water off the southern coast of Ireland.The area is known for its unusual sea life.Scientists want to know why sea creatures are so attracted to this part of the Atlantic Ocean.
One of the research vehicles is powered by batteries.It collects information for the National Oceanography Centre in Southampton,UK,and the World Wildlife Fund.The vehicle’s low energy requirements permit it to stay floating on water for up to 30 days.Reports of what it finds in the Celtic Sea are sent by satellite.
Stephen Woodward is an engineer who helped design the vehicle.He says the vehicle has equipment that can discover fish and small organisms called zooplankton(浮游动物).He adds that other sensing equipment measures ocean currents and other features of sea life.The vehicle also creates a map of the sea.
Another vehicle is powered by the sun and the wind.It can stay floating on water for months.The robotic vehicle sends information about the so-called biodiversity hot spots.A biodiversity hot spot is an area of the ocean that has a lot of plant and animal life activity.
Lavinia Suberg is one of the scientists studying the Celtic Sea.She says productive ocean areas,like the Celtic Sea,attract zooplankton.The zooplankton then attracts fish.She adds that areas with a large increase of fish often attract sea mammals and birds.
Using these robotic ocean vehicles greatly reduces the cost of exploring the sea with manned laboratories.Scientists can spend more time analysing the collected information.They say the research will give them a better understanding of the need of the Celtic Sea for future management and protection.
32.Why do the British scientists explore the Celtic Sea
A.To study the geography of the sea.
B.To learn why the sea is rich in sea life.
C.To test their self-directed water vehicles.
D.To learn about the sea creatures in the sea.
答案B
解析细节理解题。根据第二段最后一句“ScientistswanttoknowwhyseacreaturesaresoattractedtothispartoftheAtlanticOcean.”可知,英国科学家研究该海域的目的是弄清为什么该海域如此吸引海洋生物,即了解其富含海洋生物的原因。故选B项。
33.According to the text,the water vehicles .
A.are controlled directly by humans
B.work depending on the map of the sea
C.can send the information back directly
D.can keep floating on water for a long time
答案D
解析细节理解题。根据第三段中的“Thevehicle’slowenergyrequirementspermitittostayfloatingonwaterforupto30days.”和第五段中的“Itcanstayfloatingonwaterformonths.”可知,这些水上载具能在海上漂浮很久。故选D项。
34.According to Lavinia Suberg,the sea mammals and birds .
A.are afraid of living alone
B.mainly feed on zooplankton
C.like to live in warm ocean areas
D.are especially interested in fish
答案D
解析细节理解题。根据倒数第二段最后一句“Sheaddsthatareaswithalargeincreaseoffishoftenattractseamammalsandbirds.”可知,海洋哺乳动物和鸟类对鱼很感兴趣。故选D项。
35.What is the last paragraph mainly about
A.The aim of sea exploration.
B.The cost of exploring the sea.
C.The importance of the water vehicles.
D.Ways to deal with the collected information.
答案C
解析段落大意题。根据最后一段提到使用这些水上载具可以替代载人实验室以减少海洋探索的成本,并且可以给科学家留出更多时间分析采集到的信息。由此可知,本段旨在介绍机器人式水上载具在海底探索中的重要性。故选C项。

Every minute,every single day,about a truckload of plastic enters our oceans. 36 And to date,only 9% of that has been recycled.
We buy a bottle of water,drink it for a few minutes,and toss its permanent packaging “away”.We eat potato chips,finish them,then throw their permanent packaging “away”.We buy produce,take it out of the unnecessary plastic wrap,and then throw its permanent packaging “away”.
The cycle is endless,and it happens countless times every single day. 37 As far as we try to toss a piece of plastic—whether it’s into a recycling bin or not—it does not disappear.Chances are that it ends up polluting our communities,oceans or waterways in some form.
For years,we’ve been told the problem of plastic packaging can be solved through better individual action. 38 But the truth is that we cannot recycle our way out of this mess.
Recycling alone will never stop the flow of plastic into our oceans;we have to get to the source of the problem and slow down the production of all this plastic waste.Think about it:if your home was flooding because you had left the tap on,your first step wouldn’t be to start mopping.You’d first cut the flooding off at its source—the tap. 39
We need corporations that continue to produce throwaway plastic bottles to step up and take their responsibility for the mess they’ve created. 40 We will continue to do our part,but it’s time for the world’s largest corporations to do theirs.
A.This is their problem to deal with.
B.Plastic pollution is becoming very serious.
C.But here is the problem—there is no “away”.
D.In many ways,our plastic problem is no different.
E.We think that if we simply recycle we’re doing our part.
F.It’s impossible for us to get rid of plastic pollution completely.
G.Since the 1950s,some 8.3 bn tons of plastic have been produced worldwide.

You may be surprised to see “making sure children never suffer” as a mistake.The following story may help you understand how rescuing children from all suffering 41 weakness.

Like the little boy,parents too often want to protect their children from struggle in the 46 of love.They don’t realise that their children need to struggle,to experience 47 ,to deal with disappointment,and to solve their own problems.Only in this way 48 children strengthen their emotional strength,become 49 and develop the skills necessary for the even bigger struggles they will meet throughout their lives.Children experiencing sufferings can 50 the ups and downs of life.
However,it isn’t helpful either in this case when parents 51 lectures(训斥),blame and shame to what the child is experiencing.Mothers 52 to say,“Stop crying and acting like a spoiled boy.You can’t always get what you want.” These 53 words should be avoided.Instead,parents can offer their loving support.You can say,“Don’t lose heart.Be brave!You will succeed if you try again.” Then comes the tough part—no 54 and no lectures.Simply allow him to discover that he can 55 his disappointment and figure out what he can do to get what he wants in the future.

Jack and his wife Tonya were sailing around Africa with their friends Max and Sasha.One day they saw a big fishing boat.It was moving fast.
“Hello!” they shouted.The men on the boat looked at them angrily.Max looked carefully at the boat.
“Something’s wrong with their fishing net,” he said.They got nearer to the net.
“What’s that ” said Tonya.“There is something in the net.It’s alive.”
Very slowly they moved nearer.
“I can see it now,” said Tonya.“It’s a killer whale—it’s hurt.There’s blood in the water.How can we help it ”
“I can see it too.It’s a baby but we must be careful,” said Max.
Jack jumped into the water.“I can get the net off its fin,” he said.
Jack got the net off the baby killer whale.There was a big cut on its fin.It swam away.Suddenly there were other killer whales near the boat.
“Jack!” Tonya shouted.“Get in quickly.” Jack swam to the boat as fast as a fish.“That baby killer whale...I am going to call it Lucky,” he said.
As they moved away,it began to rain harder and harder.
Jack said,“We must get away from the wind.I can see a town over there.Let’s go.”
The town got nearer but the waves got bigger.Suddenly a very big wave hit the boat.
