Over the last century, engineers all over the world have spared no effort to achieve the unachievable in bridge design.
Danyang-Kunshan Grand Bridge
No bridge is as long as the Danyang-Kunshan Grand Bridge in the world. The 164.8-kilometre-long bridge built in 2011 in China operates as part of the Beijing-Shanghai High-Speed Railway. The trip from Ningbo to Jiaxing that previously took 4.5 hours has been reduced to two, thanks to this bridge.
Rio-Niterói Bridge
Completed in 1974, the Rio-Niterói Bridge in Brazil is the second-longest bridge in all of Latin America connecting the cities of Rio and Niterói across the Guanabara Bay. The Rio-Niterói Bridge is technically known as a “box-girder (箱形梁)” bridge, made of special concrete. It receives an astonishing 140,000 (or more) vehicles per day.
Hartland Covered Bridge
The Hartland Covered Bridge is the world’s longest covered bridge. The 1,282-foot-long bridge was opened in 1901 and has been on Canada’s list of National Historic Sites since 1980. Although it was originally built without a roof, the bridge was capped with wooden materials during the repairs in 1921.
Jiaozhou Bay Bridge
The newly-built Jiaozhou Bay Bridge in China was named “world’s longest bridge over water” by Guinness Book of World Records in 2011, a title previously held by the Lake Pontchartrain Causeway. The dispute was settled when the title of “longest continuous bridge over water” was given to the causeway, with the Jiaozhou Bay Bridge receiving the title of “longest bridge over water”.

Snowboarding gift Su Yiming made a name for himself by winning China’s first Olympic gold in the sport on Tuesday.
By cleanly circling back-to-back 1800 ticks, the teenager landed the biggest prize so far in his young career — gold in the men’s Big Air at the Beijing Winter Olympics. The notable achievement realized a childhood dream to reach the peak of the sport, which he began to learn at the age of 4.
Now with two shinning medals hung around his neck, the 17-year-old described his outstanding Olympic debut (首秀) as an unbelievable experience that has made all his efforts worthwhile. “This feels so unreal that I’ve finally accomplished what I’ve dreamed of since I was little,” said an emotional Su.
Over the past four years, Su has combined his talent with hard work to produce one of the swiftest rises to excellence the sport has ever seen. When the Shougang Big Air venue (会场) hosted its first international event, Su was an unknown qualifier, who didn’t even make the final runs. Just over two years later, Su is the name on everyone’s lips at the venue Olympic debut — drawing the whole nation’s attention to the sport he loves.
“The biggest motivation (动力) for me is my love for snowboarding,” Su said, when asked about the secret to his success. “In snowboarding, I feel like I can show my own style and creativity. Every time I ride my board, it’s always a joyful moment. I hope through my experience, I can inspire more young people to get interested in the sport.”
Su, a former child actor who featured in action movies, said the Olympic gold will encourage him to seek for more breakthroughs — even beyond his athletic career. “I enjoy snowboarding just as much as I enjoy acting” said Su, who turns 18 on Friday. “I think I still have a lot of possibilities to explore in my future career either in snowboarding or in acting. But now I just want to enjoy the moment and celebrate it as the best possible birthday gift.”
4. What does the underlined word “landed” in Paragraph 2 mean
A. Arrived. B. Won. C. Created. D. Dreamed.
5. According to Su himself, what is the secret to his success
A. His acting experience. B. His talent and hard working
C. His passion for snowboarding D. His life dream of achieving success
6. Which of the following words can best describe Su
A. Talented and thoughtful. B. Outgoing and determined.
C. Creative and kind-hearted. D. Hard-working and devoted.
7. What does Su think of his future
A. Upset. B. Hopeful. C. Anxious. D. Careful.
C
People do physical exercise as part of their healthy lifestyle to get stronger and healthier.
There are three basic modes of physical exercise: flexibility exercise helps the human body in general or its part in particular to be able to reach farther and bend better; aerobic exercise helps the body work hard for a long time; anaerobic exercise makes the arms and legs stronger.
It has long been known that exercise is not only good for your body, but also for your mind. According to researchers, gymnasts are more likely to be emotionally stable, football players the most outgoing and swimmers the happiest.
The psychological study, which was carried out by experts, also revealed that sports can also offer clues to a person’s attitude to charity, reading habits and even their voting intentions. Boxers, for example, are most likely to focus on material possessions in life. Meanwhile, runners tend to be outgoing people who love being the centre of attention. Walkers, a group that includes those who enjoy wandering and cross-country races, are least concerned about other people and like doing things by themselves without interruption from others. Those who play chess are confident when they face challenges and trouble. Those who swim tend to be tidy and charitable. However, according to Mind Lab, 61 percent of adults are fond of helping others regardless of their choice of sports.
The results from this study also show that no matter what kind of person you are, there is the right kind of exercise for you.
8. Which of the following sports belongs to flexibility exercise
A. Running. B. Swimming. C. Football. D. Gymnastics.
9. What can we learn from the text
A. Walkers enjoy loneliness in their lives.
B. Boxers tend to ignore wealth in life.
C. Runners have great power of concentration.
D. Chess players like challenging other people.
10. Why does the author mention Mind Lab in Paragraph 4
A. To make a contrast. B. To draw a comparison.
C. To place an emphasis. D. To give an example.
11. What is the best title for the text
A. How can you choose suitable sports
B. What kind of sports can benefit you most
C. How can sports keep you mentally healthy
D. What does your choice of sports tell about you
D
IT’S A TYPICAL morning: you wake up, take a shower, brush your teeth, and then prick (刺;扎) your arm with a tiny needle. Wait, what Unless you have a serious disease such as diabetes, you probably haven’t ever tested your own blood. But in the future, that might change.
The company Cor already sells a system for home blood testing. You stick your arm using a supposedly painless, one-off, blood-drawing cartridge (针筒) about the size of a lipstick. Then you stick the cartridge into a device (装置) that looks like the base for an electric toothbrush. A few minutes later, an app on your phone buzzes with updated information, including your current health data (数据) and tips on what to eat and how to exercise during the day.
It’s true that blood contains a wealth of information about a person’s health. Blood tests can show if a person is infected with a disease or at risk for a variety of problems, including a heart attack or a stroke. But most people don’t test their own blood until a doctor says it’s time. Healthy young adults get regular blood tests about every five years. These tests happen at a lab, where a technician or a nurse sticks a long needle into the arm to draw out several tubes full of blood. Cor and similar companies, such as WellnessFX, are trying to change all that. They think people deserve access to more information about their own health.
But not everyone is convinced that regular blood testing for healthy people is a great idea. Cor’s system is expensive and may not offer much benefit. “The lightest result here is that you lose your money and then you’re reminded to get more sleep and to eat more fruits vegetables, and fish,” Pieter Cohen of Harvard Medical School told the New York Times. “The worst result is that you end up getting frightened by probably abnormal results that are actually completely normal for you.”
Plus, the results of a home blood test might be wrong. It’s hard to get accurate results from a tiny amount of blood. So what do you think Is monitoring your own health via pinpricks the way of the future Or is it better to leave blood testing to medical professionals
12. Why does the author mention the typical morning in the first paragraph
A. To explain a scene. B. To make a comparison.
C. To provide an example. D. To introduce the topic.
13. What can we learn about the company Cor’s blood-testing system
A. It is painless and cheap to use.
B. It has won popularity among people.
C. It offers accurate health information about our body.
D. It may give advice on our diet according to the health data.
14. What’s Pieter Cohen’s attitude towards this kind of system
A. Negative. B. Unclear. C. Supportive. D. Objective.
15. Which of the following could be the best title for the text
A. Home blood testing: your health monitor! B. Home blood tests: yes or no
C. A new system of improving your health. D. Should blood tests be allowed at home

Over the past four years, Su has combined his talent with hard work to produce one of the swiftest rises to excellence the sport has ever seen. When the Shougang Big Air venue (会场) hosted its first international event, Su was an unknown qualifier, who didn’t even make the final runs. Just over two years later, Su is the name on everyone’s lips at the venue Olympic debut — drawing the whole nation’s attention to the sport he loves.
“The biggest motivation (动力) for me is my love for snowboarding,” Su said, when asked about the secret to his success. “In snowboarding, I feel like I can show my own style and creativity. Every time I ride my board, it’s always a joyful moment. I hope through my experience, I can inspire more young people to get interested in the sport.”
Su, a former child actor who featured in action movies, said the Olympic gold will encourage him to seek for more breakthroughs — even beyond his athletic career. “I enjoy snowboarding just as much as I enjoy acting” said Su, who turns 18 on Friday. “I think I still have a lot of possibilities to explore in my future career either in snowboarding or in acting. But now I just want to enjoy the moment and celebrate it as the best possible birthday gift.”

A. Arrived. B. Won. C. Created. D. Dreamed.
5. According to Su himself, what is the secret to his success
A. His acting experience. B. His talent and hard working

People do physical exercise as part of their healthy lifestyle to get stronger and healthier.
There are three basic modes of physical exercise: flexibility exercise helps the human body in general or its part in particular to be able to reach farther and bend better; aerobic exercise helps the body work hard for a long time; anaerobic exercise makes the arms and legs stronger.
It has long been known that exercise is not only good for your body, but also for your mind. According to researchers, gymnasts are more likely to be emotionally stable, football players the most outgoing and swimmers the happiest.
The psychological study, which was carried out by experts, also revealed that sports can also offer clues to a person’s attitude to charity, reading habits and even their voting intentions. Boxers, for example, are most likely to focus on material possessions in life. Meanwhile, runners tend to be outgoing people who love being the centre of attention. Walkers, a group that includes those who enjoy wandering and cross-country races, are least concerned about other people and like doing things by themselves without interruption from others. Those who play chess are confident when they face challenges and trouble. Those who swim tend to be tidy and charitable. However, according to Mind Lab, 61 percent of adults are fond of helping others regardless of their choice of sports.
The results from this study also show that no matter what kind of person you are, there is the right kind of exercise for you.

IT’S A TYPICAL morning: you wake up, take a shower, brush your teeth, and then prick (刺;扎) your arm with a tiny needle. Wait, what Unless you have a serious disease such as diabetes, you probably haven’t ever tested your own blood. But in the future, that might change.
The company Cor already sells a system for home blood testing. You stick your arm using a supposedly painless, one-off, blood-drawing cartridge (针筒) about the size of a lipstick. Then you stick the cartridge into a device (装置) that looks like the base for an electric toothbrush. A few minutes later, an app on your phone buzzes with updated information, including your current health data (数据) and tips on what to eat and how to exercise during the day.
It’s true that blood contains a wealth of information about a person’s health. Blood tests can show if a person is infected with a disease or at risk for a variety of problems, including a heart attack or a stroke. But most people don’t test their own blood until a doctor says it’s time. Healthy young adults get regular blood tests about every five years. These tests happen at a lab, where a technician or a nurse sticks a long needle into the arm to draw out several tubes full of blood. Cor and similar companies, such as WellnessFX, are trying to change all that. They think people deserve access to more information about their own health.
But not everyone is convinced that regular blood testing for healthy people is a great idea. Cor’s system is expensive and may not offer much benefit. “The lightest result here is that you lose your money and then you’re reminded to get more sleep and to eat more fruits, vegetables, and fish,” Pieter Cohen of Harvard Medical School told the New York Times. “The worst result is that you end up getting frightened by probably abnormal results that are actually completely normal for you.”
Plus, the results of a home blood test might be wrong. It’s hard to get accurate results from a tiny amount of blood. So what do you think Is monitoring your own health via pinpricks the way of the future Or is it better to leave blood testing to medical professionals
12. Why does the author mention the typical morning in the first paragraph
A. To explain a scene. B. To make a comparison.
C. To provide an example. D. To introduce the topic.
13. What can we learn about the company Cor’s blood-testing system
A. It is painless and cheap to use.
B. It has won popularity among people.
C. It offers accurate health information about our body.
D. It may give advice on our diet according to the health data.
14. What’s Pieter Cohen’s attitude towards this kind of system
A. Negative. B. Unclear. C. Supportive. D. Objective.
15. Which of the following could be the best title for the text
A. Home blood testing: your health monitor! B. Home blood tests: yes or no
C. A new system of improving your health. D. Should blood tests be allowed at home
【答案】12. D 13. D 14. A 15. B
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章说明了Cor公司已经在销售一种家庭血液检测系统,介绍了其工作方式以及家庭血液检测系统的利弊。
【12题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段“IT’S A TYPICAL morning: you wake up, take a shower, brush your teeth, and then prick (刺;扎) your arm with a tiny needle. Wait, what Unless you have a serious disease such as diabetes, you probably haven’t ever tested your own blood. But in the future, that might change.(这是一个典型的早晨:你醒来,洗澡,刷牙,然后用一根小针扎手臂。等等,什么?除非你患有严重的疾病,如糖尿病,否则你可能从未检测过自己的血液。但在未来,这种情况可能会改变)”以及第二段“The company Cor already sells a system for home blood testing.(Cor公司已经在销售一种家庭血液检测系统)”可推知,作者在第一段提到了典型的早晨是为了引入话题。故选D。
【13题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段“A few minutes later, an app on your phone buzzes with updated information, including your current health data(数据) and tips on what to eat and how to exercise during the day.(几分钟后,你手机上的一个应用程序就会发出嗡嗡声,显示最新的信息,包括你当前的健康数据,以及白天吃什么和如何锻炼的建议)”可知,Cor公司的血液检测系统可以根据健康数据对我们的饮食提出建议。故选D。
【14题详解】
推理判断题。根据倒数第二段““The lightest result here is that you lose your money and then you’re reminded to get more sleep and to eat more fruits, vegetables, and fish,” Pieter Cohen of Harvard Medical School told the New York Times. “The worst result is that you end up getting frightened by probably abnormal results that are actually completely normal for you.”(哈佛大学医学院的彼得·科恩在接受《纽约时报》采访时表示:“最轻微的结果是,你花了钱,然后被提醒要多睡觉,多吃水果、蔬菜和鱼。最糟糕的结果是,你最终会被可能不正常的结果吓坏,而这些结果对你来说实际上是完全正常的。”)”可推知,Pieter Cohen对这种系统持消极态度。故选A。
【15题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第二段“The company Cor already sells a system for home blood testing.(Cor公司已经在销售一种家庭血液检测系统)”以及最后一段“Plus, the results of a home blood test might be wrong. It’s hard to get accurate results from a tiny amount of blood. So what do you think Is monitoring your own health via pinpricks the way of the future Or is it better to leave blood testing to medical professionals (此外,家庭血液测试的结果可能是错误的。从少量的血液中很难得到准确的结果。你怎么看?通过针刺来监测自己的健康是未来的方式吗?还是把验血留给专业医生更好?)”结合文章说明了Cor公司已经在销售一种家庭血液检测系统,介绍了其工作方式以及家庭血液检测系统的利弊。由此可知,B选项“家庭验血:肯定还是否定?”最符合文章标题。故选B。

【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章讲述了中国剪纸的起源和发展。
【36题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意:中国的剪纸是最早的剪纸图案,可以追溯到东汉时期。句中谓语是is,空格处用非谓语动词,Chinese paper cutting or jianzhi和date之间是主谓关系,因此空格处用现在分词表主动,故填dating。
【37题详解】
考查形容词。句意:由于其优美的艺术,经过数百年的发展,剪纸已成为一种流行于国内外的装饰手段。空格处用形容词作定语,修饰名词art,grace的形容词是graceful,意为“优美的”。故填graceful。
【38题详解】
考查定语从句。句意:由于其优美的艺术,经过数百年的发展,剪纸已成为一种流行于国内外的装饰手段。空格处引导的是限制性定语从句,从句中缺少主语,先行词a means of decorations是物,因此空格处用关系代词which/that。故填which/that。
【39题详解】
考查副词。句意:一般来说,剪纸是用来装饰门窗的,因此有时也被称为“窗花”。空格处用副词作状语,修饰整个句子,general的副词是generally,意为“一般来说”,位于句首,首字母大写,故填Generally。
【40题详解】
考查时态,语态和主谓一致。句意:一般来说,剪纸是用来装饰门窗的,因此有时也被称为“窗花”。剪纸被称为“窗花”,“被称为”是be referred to as...,句子描述客观事实,时态用一般现在时,主语they是复数,因此空格处是are referred。故填are referred。
【41题详解】
考查介词。句意:中国人相信门上的红色剪纸能给全家带来好运和幸福。bring sth. to...意为“给某人带来……”,因此空格处是介词to,故填to。
【42题详解】
考查名词的复数。句意:人们在用剪纸表达最美好的祝愿中找到了希望和安慰。wish是可数名词,不止一个,因此空格处用复数,故填wishes。

考查冠词。句意:一个大大的红纸“喜”字是新婚夫妇门上的传统标志。character表泛指,前面要加不定冠词,big是辅音音素开头,因此不定冠词用a,位于句首,首字母大写,故填A。
【44题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意:随着中国剪纸越来越受欢迎,我们可能永远不会感觉不到中国剪纸在世界各地的存在。此处是with复合结构,空格处用非谓语动词,popularity和increase之间是主谓关系,因此空格处用现在分词表主动,故填increasing。
【45题详解】
考查不定式。句意:随着中国剪纸越来越受欢迎,我们可能永远不会感觉不到中国剪纸在世界各地的存在。fail to do是固定短语,意为“未能做某事”,故填to feel。

第二节 翻译句子(共5小题;每小题2分;满分10分)
51. 令我非常惊讶的是,这个小女孩能流利地说八种外语。(汉译英)
【答案】Much to my amazement, the little girl can speak eight foreign languages fluently.
【解析】
【详解】考查固定短语和情态动词。“令我非常惊讶的是”是固定短语much to my amazement,“这个小女孩”是the little girl,“能”是can,“流利地”是fluently,“八种外语”是eight foreign languages,因此整句话翻译为“Much to my amazement, the little girl can speak eight foreign languages fluently”,故答案为Much to my amazement, the little girl can speak eight foreign languages fluently。
52. 当我到达山顶时,我迫不及待地欣赏美丽的日出。(汉译英)
【答案】I couldn’t wait to admire the beautiful sunrise when I arrived at the top of the mountain.
【解析】
【详解】考查时态、固定短语。根据汉语提示,表示“当我到达山顶时”含义的表达为:when I arrive at the top of the mountain,因句子表达的是一个发生在过去的动作,谓语动词使用一般过去时。表示“迫不及待地”含义的表达为:couldn’t wait to;表示“欣赏”含义的表达为:admire;表示“美丽的日出”含义的表达为:the beautiful sunrise,故本句翻译为:I couldn’t wait to admire the beautiful sunrise when I arrived at the top of the mountain.
53. 对这个项目负责正是那个建筑师。 (强调句)(汉译英)
【答案】It is that architect who is responsible for this project.
【解析】
【详解】考查强调句。根据所给出的汉语句子可知,这里应是用强调句结构,时态用一般现在时,即“It is+被强调部分+that/who+其他”。结合句意可知,该句强调的是陈述句的主语“那个设计师”,用名词短语“that architect”表达,置于“is”之后;强调部分为人,强调句中连接词用who;“对……负责”用短语“be responsible for”表达,结合主语,be用“is”;“这个项目”作介词“for”的宾语,用名词短语“this project”表达。故翻译为:It is that architect who is responsible for this project.
54. 在申请这个工作之前,你应该知道自己的优势和劣势。(汉译英)
【答案】You should know your strengths and weaknesses before you apply for this job.
【解析】
【详解】考查情态动词、固定短语。主句主语是“你”you;表示“应该”含义的情态动词为:should,后跟动词原形“知道”know作谓语动词;宾语“自己的优势和劣势”可以表达为“你的优势和劣势”:strengths and weaknesses;故主句翻译为:You should know your strengths and weaknesses 。表示“在……之前”含义的表达为:before,引导时间状语从句;表示“申请”含义的表达为:apply for;宾语“这个工作”含义的表达为:this job,因句子表达的是一个客观情况,从句谓语动词使用一般现在时,故本句翻译为:You should know your strengths and weaknesses before you apply for this job.
55. 失去了两名重要队员是一个巨大的挑战,但她没有失去信心。(汉译英)
【答案】Losing two important players was a big challenge, but she did not lose heart.
【解析】
【详解】考查动名词,时态和主谓一致。“失去了两名重要队员是一个巨大的挑战”用动名词作主语,“失去两个重要的队员”是lose two important players,动名词作主语,谓语动词用单数,句子描述过去的事情,时态用一般过去时,“是”是be,用was,“一个巨大的挑战”是a big challenge,“但是她没有失去信心”时态用一般过去时,“失去信心”是lose heart,故答案为Losing two important players was a big challenge, but she did not lose heart.
