Jon Pedley is making a big change. He is giving up his life as a businessman for a life of helping others. He is trading his beautiful farmhouse in England for life in a mud hut (小屋) in Uganda, East Africa.
Pedley admitted that he had not always led a very positive life. At times he drank too much and got in trouble with the law. “I had always put the pursuit of money in front of everything else. As long as I was all right, I didn’t care who I was hurting,” says Pedley.
But a visit to Uganda in 2007 gave Pedley a new outlook on life. He was amazed at what he saw and how much the people there appreciated the work he was doing. “I worked there for a few days and these people who have nothing were thanking me by giving me bags of potatoes, which are a fortune for them,” he said. Now Pedley is selling his business, his $1.5 million farmhouse, and his expensive car—and moving into a hut made of mud and boards in a small Ugandan village. There he will help run an organisation that hopes to improve the quality of life for people in the village of Kigazi. He will help to build schoolrooms for children and tanks to hold clean water for villagers. Today, people in Kigazi must walk two miles to a hospital, so Pedley will help to build doctors’ offices, too.
Pedley’s organisation will also work with English teenagers who are in trouble. The teens will be sent to a “camp” in Uganda that Pedley will run. The teens will live in mud huts and help to build water, health, and education facilities (设施) for kids in Kigazi, many of whom have lost their parents to poverty or disease. Pedley hopes the teens will see a side of life that might help them turn around their own lives and set them on a new and more positive path.
24. Which of the following best describes Pedley in the past
A. Negative. B. Creative. C. Positive. D. Selfish.
25. What will Pedley do in the small Ugandan village
A. Do business with the local people. B. Help farmers increase potato output.
C. Help villagers with building work. D. Introduce tools to improve English teaching.
26. Why will Pedley work with English teenagers in trouble
A. To encourage them to make friends with locals.
B. To inspire them to live a more positive life.
C. To train them to become doctors in the future.
D. To make them learn about different cultures.
27. What is the best title for the text
A. From a millionaire to living in a mud hut. B. Alife-changing adventure.
C. Arich man becoming homeless. D. More money, more worries.
C
Imagine the situation. You are driving along a desert or on a mountain. You have no idea where you are. You passed the last house two hours ago. Then your car breaks down. It is night and it is cold. You have no mobile phone. What do you do Well, next time take a GPS with you. This invention may be able to help you. It is a device which uses satellites to find the user’s position. A GPS cannot start your car, but at least you will know where you are.
GPS, which means Global Positioning System, is a small radio receiver. It looks like a mobile phone. You can hold it in your hand, or put it in your pocket. It is sometimes put into a watch or a telephone. We also find GPS devices in cars, planes, or boats. Some of these devices have electronic maps, so you know where you are. For example, in a city they can tell you the name of the street.
There are three parts to the Global Positioning System. The first part is the receiver. You can hold it in your hand, or have it fixed into your car, plane, etc. The second part is a group of satellites orbiting the Earth. The receiver contacts at least four of the satellites and calculates its position. The third part of the system is a network of ground stations. They are all over the world. They control the satellites and make sure they are working well.
The GPS is becoming cheaper and more and more accurate. There are also new uses for the GPS. Perhaps they will become like watches. Everyone will have one and you will never be lost again.
28. According to the passage, with the help of GPS, people _________.
A. can’t find their way in different countries
B. can’t be lost in a new city
C. can learn about the culture of an unknown place
D. can spend the least time getting to another place
29. We can learn from the passage that _______.
A. the GPS is made up of three parts B. a GPS can’t be put into a watch
C. a GPS can help you start your car D. the GPS is becoming more and more expensive
30. The underlined word “They” in Paragraph 3 means “________”.
A. receivers B. GPS devices C. satellites D. ground stations
31. The passage is mainly about _______.
A. the history of the GPS B. the introduction of the GPS
C. the shape of the GPS D. the three parts of the GPS
D
There is a famous story about how Walt Disney was inspired to build Disneyland. The story goes that during an afternoon visit to Griffith Park located near the Burbank Studios, Walt took a seat while his two young daughters rode the merry-go-round. Walt thought there should be a place where both children and their parents could enjoy spending some time together in an environment that would be both entertaining and pleasing to the eye, so with this thought came the idea for Disneyland.
Walt’s original plan was to build an eight-acre park located near the Burbank Studios that would be a place for his employees and their families. Those plans were put on hold because of the start of World War II. By 1952, Walt had created a special department to build the park.
Finally in 1953, the first steps in building the park happened when Walt hired the Stanford Research Institute to make a survey to determine the best possible location for the future park. Considering population growth and the future freeway construction, they finally found a location in Anaheim and 160 acres of land were bought for the site of the new park.
The building of the park was very expensive and to create funding for the project Walt developed the idea of the “Walt Disney’s Disneyland” television show. It turned out to be a marvelous idea — not only gaining the money to build the park but also presenting the park to the American public.
Construction officially began on July 21, 1954, and it was an ambitious (野心勃勃的) building schedule of less than one year to complete the new park for the projected opening day. Walt watched over the park’s construction and progress continued with just a few minor hold-ups. Finally, the park was ready for the Opening Day on July 17, 1955.
32. What inspired Walt Disney to build Disneyland
A. The special design of Griffith Park. B. A trip to a park with his daughters.
C. Requests from his family and employees. D. The idea to build a park for his daughters.
33. What is mainly considered in choosing the location of Disneyland
A. Walt Disney’s personal preference. B. The natural environment.
C. The advice of the public. D. Local traffic.
34. What does the underlined word “marvelous” in Paragraph 4 mean
A. Funny. B. Wild. C. Wonderful. D. Imaginative.
35. What can we learn about the construction process
A. It was smooth generally. B. It was affected by World War II.
C. It was completed later than expected. D. It was influenced by a shortage of money.

根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
Characteristics of an excellent scientist
The dictionary defines a scientist as a person having professional knowledge on one or more sciences, especially natural science or physical science. 36 Let’s look at some characteristics of an excellent scientist.
Curiosity
An excellent scientist must be very curious about things. Scientists such as Thomas Edison and George Westinghouse discovered things mainly because they wanted to know how things work. 37
Patience
Becoming a scientist takes a long time. 38 Even if you think you have received some education on science, you still have a lot of scientific research to do. If you’re an instant-gratification type of person, this may not be the best choice for you.
Ethical (道德的) qualities
In order to truly discover and use knowledge for the greater good, a scientist must have a desire to improve people’s life as well as the environment, since they are linked and they can affect one another in the long run. 39 Sticking to an old belief contradicted with evidence is dishonest. However, that belief shouldn’t be changed without powerful evidence.
Working habits
40 He/ She can work well alone or in groups, depending on what’s needed and also needs to communicate thoughts on paper and verbally. Networking connects him/her with colleagues working on similar projects where he/she may discover something new.
A. To make discoveries, you have to think differently.
B. There are very few jobs that take longer than this one.
C. It also defines a scientist as someone who uses scientific methods.
D. A scientist must report findings honestly regardless of personal interests or public opinion.
E. One of the main places that many scientists work in is the research laboratory.
F. An excellent scientist even takes notes of the smallest observation and keeps it in mind.
G. Without a drive to ask questions or even wonder, a scientist will never get to the first stage of the scientific process.

For many years, people have been worried that one day, robots could take their jobs. Now, it 56 (seem) that it may start happening.
ChatGPT is 57 AI chatbot, which is the fastest-growing app based on a 58 (power) language processing model. It had 100 million active users just two months after 59 (it) start. Experts started to worry that the latest chatbots could harm the careers of anyone who works with information, does research or writes reports. Chatbots are very creative, and can do things that we thought only humans could do. So an increasing number 60 users see this as a business chance. They will start using a chatbot as a staff member that may 61 (compare) to a newly employed graduate in terms of its ability to think. Chatbots work very fast, without 62 (request) a break or pay, and for business people, that’s 63 (extreme) important. Some UK law companies have already realized it 64 started using chatbots to write legal letters or provide ideas for legal matters.
However, one of the biggest 65 (problem) with ChatGPT is that it doesn’t know the actual truth about the world — it simply learns information from various resources but cannot decide on its own what is true or false.

A friend of mine whose name was Martin Brown had a bad memory, which made him really famous. He was so forgetful that he sometimes forgot what he was talking about in the middle of a sentence. His wife had to always remind him about his appointments, his classes or even his meals! Since Martin was a professor at a well-known university, his forgetfulness often caused him a lot of trouble. It wasn't that he was unintelligent, as some critical people tended to say, he was just very, very absent-minded.
One hot summer day, Professor Brown decided to take his children to the beach. The seaside town he planned to visit was about a three-hour train ride away. To make the trip more interesting for his young children, he decided to keep the name of the town secret. Unfortunately, by the time Martin had arrived at the train station, the poor forgetful man had forgotten the name of the town. Luckily, a friend of his happened to be in the station. He offered to take care of the children while Martin went back home to find out where he was going.
The professor's wife was surprised to see him back again so soon, but she laughed when she heard what was the matter. She distrusted his memory, so she wrote the name of the town on a piece of paper. Satisfied that she had solved the problem, she sent her husband off again. Ten minutes later, she was astonished to see him outside the house again.
注意： 1.续写词数应为 150 左右； 2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。

“What was the matter now " asked his wife. "I just can't remember…" Martin Brown swallowed his words, seeing his wife's glaring eyes. Sensing something was wrong, the anxious Mrs Brown immediately softened," Calm down and think hard. Do you forget where you put the name of the town " Staring into his eyes, Mrs Brown tried hard to control her temper. Scratching his head, Brown told the truth that it wasn't the name of the town but the children. Mrs Brown soon came to realize that he forgot where he had left the children!
Hearing the cry, the neighbours rushed out, trying to find out what had happened. The couple quarrelled so loudly that it would almost turn into a fight. Mrs Brown burst out laughing when the professor's telephone rang. His friend, whose patience had worn out, called to complain. Thank goodness! The professor apologized and dashed into his car. Fearing that he may make matters worse, Mrs Brown insisted on following this time. What relief and delight to see their children running towards them at the train station!

第二部分 阅读理解
21．B 22．A 23．D
【分析】这是一篇应用文。作者介绍了四个值得游客度假的地方。
21．细节理解题。根据题干中的Captiva Island，Florida可知答案出自第二段。根据第二段中的"The Summer Getaway package offers...making the average of a four-night stay $156.75"可知，平均每晚住宿费用是156.75美元，4个晚上则是627美元，故选B。
22．细节理解题。根据第二段可知，Captiva Island，Florida是四天的行程，第三段的Reykjavk, Iceland是八天的行程，第四段的Malpais, Costa Rica是一周，第五段的Waterville Valley, New Hampshire是六天的行程，因此选A。
23．主旨大意题。根据第一段中的"Here's where to go for a good time at an unbelievable value"可知，作者在文章中给读者推荐值得度假的地方，故选D。
【点睛】主旨大意题的做题技巧。
1) 主旨大意题属于归纳概括题。如有标题，标题中蕴含的信息往往是关键信息。
2) 找准文章的主题句是关键。“主题句定位法”是一种行之有效的方法。在答题时，我们可以：读首句抓大意；读尾句抓大意；读首尾段抓大意。
3.) 无明显主题句时高频信息词，任一篇文章都是围绕某个主题展开的，因此，有的文章中最明显的特点之一是有一个反复出现的中心词，即高频词，也叫做主题词。抓住了它，便容易抓住文章的中心。
比如小题3，根据第一段中的"Here's where to go for a good time at an unbelievable value"可知，作者在文章中给读者推荐值得度假的地方，故选D。
24．D 25．C 26．B 27．A
【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了一个英格兰的百万富翁变卖了资产而搬到了乌干达的一个泥屋帮助当地村民的故事。
24．推理判断题。根据第二段中““I had always put the pursuit of money in front of everything else. As long as I was all right, I didn’t care who I was hurting,” says Pedley.(Pedley说：“我总是把对金钱的追求放在一切事情的前面。只要我还好，我不在乎我伤害了谁。”)”可推知，以前Pedley是一个非常自私的人。故选D。
25．细节理解题。根据第三段中“He will help to build schoolrooms for children and tanks to hold clean water for villagers.(他将帮助为孩子们建造教室，为村民们建造能储存干净水的蓄水池)”可知，Pedley在乌干达的小村庄，将帮助村民们进行建筑工作。故选C。
26．细节理解题。根据最后一段中“Pedley hopes the teens will see a side of life that might help them turn around their own lives and set them on a new and more positive path.(Pedley希望这些青少年能看到生活的另一面，帮助他们改变自己的生活，让他们走上一条新的、更积极的道路)”可知，Pedley鼓励陷入困境的英国青少年过更积极的生活。故选B。
27．主旨大意题。根据第一段中“He is giving up his life as a businessman for a life of helping others. He is trading his beautiful farmhouse in England for life in a mud hut (小屋) in Uganda, East Africa.(他放弃了商人的生活，转而帮助他人。他放弃了英格兰美丽的农舍，转而住在东非乌干达的一间泥屋里)”结合本文主要讲述了一个英格兰的百万富翁变卖了资产而搬到了乌干达的一个泥屋帮助当地村民的故事。由此可知，A项From a millionaire to living in a mud hut.“从百万富翁到搬进泥屋”最符合文章标题。故选A。
28．B 29．A 30．D 31．B
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍的是GPS的功能，组成部分以及现阶段的发展情况。
28．细节理解题。根据首段中的“It is a device which uses satellites to find the user’s position. A GPS cannot start your car, but at least you will know where you are.(它是一种利用卫星找到用户位置的装置。GPS不能启动你的车，但至少你会知道你在哪里。)”可知，GPS可以使用卫星定位用户的位置，会知道你在哪里，由此可知，在GPS的帮助下，GPS能让你知道自己在哪儿以至于不会迷路。故选B项。
29．细节理解题。根据第三段中的“There are three parts to the Global Positioning System.(GPS由三部分组成。)”以及下文中的对每一部分的简要介绍可知，GPS由三部分组成。故选A项。
30．词义猜测题。根据第三段中的“The third part of the system is a network of ground stations.(系统的第三部分是地面站网络。)”可知，GPS的第三部分是地面站网络，结合代词they的用法可知，they应该指代上文中的名词复数，所以they指代的为名词ground stations。故选D项。
31．主旨大意题。根据首段中的“A GPS cannot start your car, but at least you will know where you are.(它是一种利用卫星找到用户位置的装置。GPS不能启动你的车，但至少你会知道你在哪里。)”可知，本段介绍了GPS的作用；根据第二段中的“GPS, which means Global Positioning System, is a small radio receiver.

“What was the matter now " asked his wife. "I just can't remember…" Martin Brown swallowed his words, seeing his wife's glaring eyes. Sensing something was wrong, the anxious Mrs Brown immediately softened," Calm down and think hard. Do you forget where you put the name of the town " Staring into his eyes, Mrs Brown tried hard to control her temper. Scratching his head, Brown told the truth that it wasn't the name of the town but the children. Mrs Brown soon came to realize that he forgot where he had left the children!
Hearing the cry, the neighbours rushed out, trying to find out what had happened. The couple quarrelled so loudly that it would almost turn into a fight. Mrs Brown burst out laughing when the professor's telephone rang. His friend, whose patience had worn out, called to complain. Thank goodness! The professor apologized and dashed into his car. Fearing that he may make matters worse, Mrs Brown insisted on following this time. What relief and delight to see their children running towards them at the train station!
【分析】本文以故事为线索，讲述的是健忘的布朗先生的故事，他经常会忘记一些事，他准备带孩子去旅行，但是在火车站忘记了目的地的小镇的名字，在朋友的帮助下回家，妻子给他写了一个字条，去发现布朗先生忘记了他把孩子留在了哪里。
【详解】1.段落续写：
①第一段开头是：“现在又怎么了 ”他的妻子问。所以后文应该是他忘记了把孩子留在哪里了。
②第二段开头是：邻居们一听到哭声就冲了出来，想知道发生了什么事。故后文应当写布朗夫妇发生争吵，孩子是否被找到。
2.续写线索：布郎先生回到家——与妻子对话——布朗忘记了城镇的名字也忘记了把孩子放在哪里了——布朗和妻子争吵——接到朋友的电话——妻子和布朗一起去火车站，欣慰而高兴地看到孩子们。

Jon Pedley is making a big change. He is giving up his life as a businessman for a life of helping others. He is trading his beautiful farmhouse in England for life in a mud hut (小屋) in Uganda, East Africa.
Pedley admitted that he had not always led a very positive life. At times he drank too much and got in trouble with the law. “I had always put the pursuit of money in front of everything else. As long as I was all right, I didn’t care who I was hurting,” says Pedley.
But a visit to Uganda in 2007 gave Pedley a new outlook on life. He was amazed at what he saw and how much the people there appreciated the work he was doing. “I worked there for a few days and these people who have nothing were thanking me by giving me bags of potatoes, which are a fortune for them,” he said. Now Pedley is selling his business, his $1.5 million farmhouse, and his expensive car—and moving into a hut made of mud and boards in a small Ugandan village. There he will help run an organisation that hopes to improve the quality of life for people in the village of Kigazi. He will help to build schoolrooms for children and tanks to hold clean water for villagers. Today, people in Kigazi must walk two miles to a hospital, so Pedley will help to build doctors’ offices, too.
Pedley’s organisation will also work with English teenagers who are in trouble. The teens will be sent to a “camp” in Uganda that Pedley will run. The teens will live in mud huts and help to build water, health, and education facilities (设施) for kids in Kigazi, many of whom have lost their parents to poverty or disease. Pedley hopes the teens will see a side of life that might help them turn around their own lives and set them on a new and more positive path.
24. Which of the following best describes Pedley in the past
A. Negative. B. Creative. C. Positive. D. Selfish.
25. What will Pedley do in the small Ugandan village
A. Do business with the local people. B. Help farmers increase potato output.
C. Help villagers with building work. D. Introduce tools to improve English teaching.
26. Why will Pedley work with English teenagers in trouble
A. To encourage them to make friends with locals.
B. To inspire them to live a more positive life.
C. To train them to become doctors in the future.
D. To make them learn about different cultures.
27. What is the best title for the text
A. From a millionaire to living in a mud hut. B. Alife-changing adventure.
C. Arich man becoming homeless. D. More money, more worries.
C
Imagine the situation. You are driving along a desert or on a mountain. You have no idea where you are. You passed the last house two hours ago. Then your car breaks down. It is night and it is cold. You have no mobile phone. What do you do Well, next time take a GPS with you. This invention may be able to help you. It is a device which uses satellites to find the user’s position. A GPS cannot start your car, but at least you will know where you are.
GPS, which means Global Positioning System, is a small radio receiver. It looks like a mobile phone. You can hold it in your hand, or put it in your pocket. It is sometimes put into a watch or a telephone. We also find GPS devices in cars, planes, or boats. Some of these devices have electronic maps, so you know where you are. For example, in a city they can tell you the name of the street.
There are three parts to the Global Positioning System. The first part is the receiver. You can hold it in your hand, or have it fixed into your car, plane, etc. The second part is a group of satellites orbiting the Earth. The receiver contacts at least four of the satellites and calculates its position. The third part of the system is a network of ground stations. They are all over the world. They control the satellites and make sure they are working well.
The GPS is becoming cheaper and more and more accurate. There are also new uses for the GPS. Perhaps they will become like watches. Everyone will have one and you will never be lost again.
28. According to the passage, with the help of GPS, people _________.
A. can’t find their way in different countries
B. can’t be lost in a new city
C. can learn about the culture of an unknown place
D. can spend the least time getting to another place
29. We can learn from the passage that _______.
A. the GPS is made up of three parts B. a GPS can’t be put into a watch
C. a GPS can help you start your car D. the GPS is becoming more and more expensive
30. The underlined word “They” in Paragraph 3 means “________”.
A. receivers B. GPS devices C. satellites D. ground stations
31. The passage is mainly about _______.
A. the history of the GPS B. the introduction of the GPS
C. the shape of the GPS D. the three parts of the GPS
D
There is a famous story about how Walt Disney was inspired to build Disneyland. The story goes that during an afternoon visit to Griffith Park located near the Burbank Studios, Walt took a seat while his two young daughters rode the merry-go-round. Walt thought there should be a place where both children and their parents could enjoy spending some time together in an environment that would be both entertaining and pleasing to the eye, so with this thought came the idea for Disneyland.
Walt’s original plan was to build an eight-acre park located near the Burbank Studios that would be a place for his employees and their families. Those plans were put on hold because of the start of World War II. By 1952, Walt had created a special department to build the park.
Finally in 1953, the first steps in building the park happened when Walt hired the Stanford Research Institute to make a survey to determine the best possible location for the future park. Considering population growth and the future freeway construction, they finally found a location in Anaheim and 160 acres of land were bought for the site of the new park.
The building of the park was very expensive and to create funding for the project Walt developed the idea of the “Walt Disney’s Disneyland” television show. It turned out to be a marvelous idea — not only gaining the money to build the park but also presenting the park to the American public.
Construction officially began on July 21, 1954, and it was an ambitious (野心勃勃的) building schedule of less than one year to complete the new park for the projected opening day. Walt watched over the park’s construction and progress continued with just a few minor hold-ups. Finally, the park was ready for the Opening Day on July 17, 1955.
32. What inspired Walt Disney to build Disneyland
A. The special design of Griffith Park. B. A trip to a park with his daughters.
C. Requests from his family and employees. D. The idea to build a park for his daughters.
33. What is mainly considered in choosing the location of Disneyland
A. Walt Disney’s personal preference. B. The natural environment.
C. The advice of the public. D. Local traffic.
34. What does the underlined word “marvelous” in Paragraph 4 mean
A. Funny. B. Wild. C. Wonderful. D. Imaginative.
35. What can we learn about the construction process
A. It was smooth generally. B. It was affected by World War II.
C. It was completed later than expected. D. It was influenced by a shortage of money.

An excellent scientist must be very curious about things. Scientists such as Thomas Edison and George Westinghouse discovered things mainly because they wanted to know how things work. 37
Patience
Becoming a scientist takes a long time. 38 Even if you think you have received some education on science, you still have a lot of scientific research to do. If you’re an instant-gratification type of person, this may not be the best choice for you.
Ethical (道德的) qualities
In order to truly discover and use knowledge for the greater good, a scientist must have a desire to improve people’s life as well as the environment, since they are linked and they can affect one another in the long run. 39 Sticking to an old belief contradicted with evidence is dishonest. However, that belief shouldn’t be changed without powerful evidence.
Working habits
40 He/ She can work well alone or in groups, depending on what’s needed and also needs to communicate thoughts on paper and verbally. Networking connects him/her with colleagues working on similar projects where he/she may discover something new.
A. To make discoveries, you have to think differently.
B. There are very few jobs that take longer than this one.
C. It also defines a scientist as someone who uses scientific methods.
D. A scientist must report findings honestly regardless of personal interests or public opinion.
E. One of the main places that many scientists work in is the research laboratory.
F. An excellent scientist even takes notes of the smallest observation and keeps it in mind.
G. Without a drive to ask questions or even wonder, a scientist will never get to the first stage of the scientific process.

For many years, people have been worried that one day, robots could take their jobs. Now, it 56 (seem) that it may start happening.
ChatGPT is 57 AI chatbot, which is the fastest-growing app based on a 58 (power) language processing model. It had 100 million active users just two months after 59 (it) start. Experts started to worry that the latest chatbots could harm the careers of anyone who works with information, does research or writes reports. Chatbots are very creative, and can do things that we thought only humans could do. So an increasing number 60 users see this as a business chance. They will start using a chatbot as a staff member that may 61 (compare) to a newly employed graduate in terms of its ability to think. Chatbots work very fast, without 62 (request) a break or pay, and for business people, that’s 63 (extreme) important. Some UK law companies have already realized it 64 started using chatbots to write legal letters or provide ideas for legal matters.
However, one of the biggest 65 (problem) with ChatGPT is that it doesn’t know the actual truth about the world — it simply learns information from various resources but cannot decide on its own what is true or false.

A friend of mine whose name was Martin Brown had a bad memory, which made him really famous. He was so forgetful that he sometimes forgot what he was talking about in the middle of a sentence. His wife had to always remind him about his appointments, his classes or even his meals! Since Martin was a professor at a well-known university, his forgetfulness often caused him a lot of trouble. It wasn't that he was unintelligent, as some critical people tended to say, he was just very, very absent-minded.
One hot summer day, Professor Brown decided to take his children to the beach. The seaside town he planned to visit was about a three-hour train ride away. To make the trip more interesting for his young children, he decided to keep the name of the town secret. Unfortunately, by the time Martin had arrived at the train station, the poor forgetful man had forgotten the name of the town. Luckily, a friend of his happened to be in the station. He offered to take care of the children while Martin went back home to find out where he was going.
The professor's wife was surprised to see him back again so soon, but she laughed when she heard what was the matter. She distrusted his memory, so she wrote the name of the town on a piece of paper. Satisfied that she had solved the problem, she sent her husband off again. Ten minutes later, she was astonished to see him outside the house again.

“What was the matter now " asked his wife. "I just can't remember…" Martin Brown swallowed his words, seeing his wife's glaring eyes. Sensing something was wrong, the anxious Mrs Brown immediately softened," Calm down and think hard. Do you forget where you put the name of the town " Staring into his eyes, Mrs Brown tried hard to control her temper. Scratching his head, Brown told the truth that it wasn't the name of the town but the children. Mrs Brown soon came to realize that he forgot where he had left the children!
Hearing the cry, the neighbours rushed out, trying to find out what had happened. The couple quarrelled so loudly that it would almost turn into a fight. Mrs Brown burst out laughing when the professor's telephone rang. His friend, whose patience had worn out, called to complain. Thank goodness! The professor apologized and dashed into his car. Fearing that he may make matters worse, Mrs Brown insisted on following this time. What relief and delight to see their children running towards them at the train station!

第二部分 阅读理解
21．B 22．A 23．D
【分析】这是一篇应用文。作者介绍了四个值得游客度假的地方。
21．细节理解题。根据题干中的Captiva Island，Florida可知答案出自第二段。根据第二段中的"The Summer Getaway package offers...making the average of a four-night stay $156.75"可知，平均每晚住宿费用是156.75美元，4个晚上则是627美元，故选B。
22．细节理解题。根据第二段可知，Captiva Island，Florida是四天的行程，第三段的Reykjavk, Iceland是八天的行程，第四段的Malpais, Costa Rica是一周，第五段的Waterville Valley, New Hampshire是六天的行程，因此选A。
23．主旨大意题。根据第一段中的"Here's where to go for a good time at an unbelievable value"可知，作者在文章中给读者推荐值得度假的地方，故选D。
【点睛】主旨大意题的做题技巧。
1) 主旨大意题属于归纳概括题。如有标题，标题中蕴含的信息往往是关键信息。
2) 找准文章的主题句是关键。“主题句定位法”是一种行之有效的方法。在答题时，我们可以：读首句抓大意；读尾句抓大意；读首尾段抓大意。
3.) 无明显主题句时高频信息词，任一篇文章都是围绕某个主题展开的，因此，有的文章中最明显的特点之一是有一个反复出现的中心词，即高频词，也叫做主题词。抓住了它，便容易抓住文章的中心。
比如小题3，根据第一段中的"Here's where to go for a good time at an unbelievable value"可知，作者在文章中给读者推荐值得度假的地方，故选D。
24．D 25．C 26．B 27．A
【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了一个英格兰的百万富翁变卖了资产而搬到了乌干达的一个泥屋帮助当地村民的故事。

25．细节理解题。根据第三段中“He will help to build schoolrooms for children and tanks to hold clean water for villagers.(他将帮助为孩子们建造教室，为村民们建造能储存干净水的蓄水池)”可知，Pedley在乌干达的小村庄，将帮助村民们进行建筑工作。故选C。
26．细节理解题。根据最后一段中“Pedley hopes the teens will see a side of life that might help them turn around their own lives and set them on a new and more positive path.(Pedley希望这些青少年能看到生活的另一面，帮助他们改变自己的生活，让他们走上一条新的、更积极的道路)”可知，Pedley鼓励陷入困境的英国青少年过更积极的生活。故选B。
27．主旨大意题。根据第一段中“He is giving up his life as a businessman for a life of helping others. He is trading his beautiful farmhouse in England for life in a mud hut (小屋) in Uganda, East Africa.(他放弃了商人的生活，转而帮助他人。他放弃了英格兰美丽的农舍，转而住在东非乌干达的一间泥屋里)”结合本文主要讲述了一个英格兰的百万富翁变卖了资产而搬到了乌干达的一个泥屋帮助当地村民的故事。由此可知，A项From a millionaire to living in a mud hut.“从百万富翁到搬进泥屋”最符合文章标题。故选A。
28．B 29．A 30．D 31．B
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍的是GPS的功能，组成部分以及现阶段的发展情况。

29．细节理解题。根据第三段中的“There are three parts to the Global Positioning System.(GPS由三部分组成。)”以及下文中的对每一部分的简要介绍可知，GPS由三部分组成。故选A项。
30．词义猜测题。根据第三段中的“The third part of the system is a network of ground stations.(系统的第三部分是地面站网络。)”可知，GPS的第三部分是地面站网络，结合代词they的用法可知，they应该指代上文中的名词复数，所以they指代的为名词ground stations。故选D项。
31．主旨大意题。根据首段中的“A GPS cannot start your car, but at least you will know where you are.(它是一种利用卫星找到用户位置的装置。GPS不能启动你的车，但至少你会知道你在哪里。)”可知，本段介绍了GPS的作用；根据第二段中的“GPS, which means Global Positioning System, is a small radio receiver. It looks like a mobile phone.(GPS，即全球定位系统，是一种小型无线电接收器。它看起来像一个移动电话。)”可知，本段介绍的是GPS的形状；结合第三段中的“There are three parts to the Global Positioning System.(GPS有三部分组成。)”可知，本段介绍的是GPS的组成；根据尾段中的“The GPS is becoming cheaper and more and more accurate.(GPS正变得越来越便宜，越来越精确。)”可知，本段介绍的是当前GPS的发展情况，综合以上信息可知，本文简要介绍了GPS的相关情况。故选B项。

34．词句猜测题。根据倒数第二段的“not only gaining the money to build the park but also presenting the park to the American public(不仅获得了建造公园的资金，而且还向美国公众展示了公园)”可知，这是一个很好的主意，划线词marvelous的意思是“极好的”，和C选项wonderful意思相近，故选C。

Scratching his head, Brown told the truth that it wasn't the name of the town but the children. Mrs Brown soon came to realize that he forgot where he had left the children!
Hearing the cry, the neighbours rushed out, trying to find out what had happened. The couple quarrelled so loudly that it would almost turn into a fight. Mrs Brown burst out laughing when the professor's telephone rang. His friend, whose patience had worn out, called to complain. Thank goodness! The professor apologized and dashed into his car. Fearing that he may make matters worse, Mrs Brown insisted on following this time. What relief and delight to see their children running towards them at the train station!

【详解】1.段落续写：
①第一段开头是：“现在又怎么了 ”他的妻子问。所以后文应该是他忘记了把孩子留在哪里了。
②第二段开头是：邻居们一听到哭声就冲了出来，想知道发生了什么事。故后文应当写布朗夫妇发生争吵，孩子是否被找到。
