Section B (22’)
Directions: Read the following passages. Each passage is followed by several questions. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage you have just read.
A
Some people have lot of hair while others have a little. Some people have no hair on the top of their head; they are bald. The important thing is - are you happy with the hair you have
Problem hair is often a result of an unhealthy diet and lifestyle.
To ensure your hair looks its best, pay attention to what you eat. Lack of protein and iron makes your hair less shiny. So, you need adequate amounts of green vegetables, fruits and dairy products. Drink eight to ten glasses of water a day. This will help keep your hair from becoming dry. Avoid eating sweets or high-fat foods. They can slow hair growth.

Do you ever find yourself studying really hard for a test but ultimately not doing so well You spent hours reviewing your notes, only to receive a grade that doesn’t reflect your hard work. ___57___Below are a couple of active studying methods that I found worked best for me.
Method #1: Try explaining the concepts/theories that you’re studying to family members or friends. If you can explain it to them to a point where they can understand it, then that means you understand it.
Method #2: ___58___This helps our brain with classifying information. If you can fill up a table, that means you know enough about them. Understanding their similarities and differences will also be helpful for a test.
Method #3: Study with friends. If you’re able to stay focused, studying with a group might be more fun and motivating than studying alone. ___59___Pick potential test topics and hold discussions to gain insight into different ways of thinking about a problem.
Method #4: This one shouldn’t be much of a surprise - flashcards. Flashcards are a great way to memorize important material! To make it more fun, write your flashcards using colorful pens and highlight important parts.

【答案】57. C 58. E 59. F 60. B
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了一些有效的学习方法。
【57题详解】
根据上文“You spent hours reviewing your notes, only to receive a grade that doesn’t reflect your hard work.(你花了好几个小时复习笔记，结果得到的分数却不能反映你的努力程度。)”和下文“Below are a couple of active studying methods that I found worked best for me.(下面是我发现对我最有效的几个积极的学习方法。)”可知，上文提到学习效果不佳，下文提到要介绍一些学习方法，空处承上启下，指出学习效果不好是因为学习方法不对。C项：It’s not that you’re not smart - it’s just that you’re studying the wrong way. (不是你不聪明——只是你学习的方法不对。)符合语境。故选C。
【58题详解】
空处为段落主题句。根据下文“This helps our brain with classifying information. If you can fill up a table, that means you know enough about them.(这有助于我们的大脑分类信息。如果你能填满一张表，那就意味着你对他们足够了解。)”可知，本段建议的方法是创建对比表。E项中的“compare-and-contrast tables”和下文中的“fill up a table”对应。E项：Create compare-and-contrast tables for different concepts/theories.(为不同的概念/理论创建比较对比表。)符合语境。故选E。
【59题详解】
根据上文“Study with friends. If you’re able to stay focused, studying with a group might be more fun and motivating than studying alone.(和朋友一起学习。如果你能保持专注，和一群人一起学习可能比独自学习更有趣，更有动力。)”可知，上文提出的方法是和朋友一起学习，并解释了和朋友一起学习的好处，F项中的“also”表明进一步说明和朋友一起学习的好处，承接上文，F项：It’s also great to hear other people’s thoughts on the course material in case there’s anything you missed or misinterpreted.(听听别人对课程材料的看法也很好，以防你遗漏或误解了什么。)符合语境。故选F。

第II卷 (45分)
I. Translation (20’) (第1题3分，第2-4题4分，第5题5分，共20分)
Directions: Translate the following sentences into English, using the words given in the brackets.
61. 卷入事故的所有人都被惩罚了。(involve) （汉译英）
【答案】All the people involved in the accident have been punished.
【解析】
【详解】考查动词和语态。分析所给中文提示词，“所有人”作主语译为“all the people”，“卷入事故”根据题干要求，需用involve，此处应用非谓语形式，和逻辑主语people是被动关系，用过去分词表被动，作后置定语，译为“involved in the accident”，“都被惩罚了”作谓语，根据句意，表完成的动作，用现在完成时，且用被动语态，译为“have been punished”。故译为：All the people involved in the accident have been punished.
62. 我答应再也不提这件事了。(refer) （汉译英）
【答案】I promised not to refer to the matter again.
【解析】
【详解】考查动词短语。根据句意，该句描述的为过去的事情，所以此处应使用一般过去时态，表示“答应不做某事”应为promise not to do sth.，且用于一般过去时，所以谓语动词应为promised，not to do sth.应为不定式的否定形式作宾语，表示“提及”应为refer to，表示“这件事”应为the matter，表示“再”应为again。故翻译为I promised not to refer to the matter again。
63. 如果病人的病情恶化，请立即叫我。(send) （汉译英）
【答案】If the patient’s condition worsens, send for me immediately.
【解析】
【详解】考查短语、时态和条件状语从句。“如果病人的病情恶化”处理为条件状语从句，陈述的事情还未发生，用一般现在时表将来；“请立即叫我”处理为主句，为祈使句，暗含将来时；“如果……”用if引导条件状语从句；“病人的病情恶化”翻译为the patient’s condition worsens；“派人去请”用短语send for。根据句意，故翻译为If the patient’s condition worsens, send for me immediately.
64. 洪水发生后，这个村庄几乎被毁了。(destroy) （汉译英）
【答案】The village was almost destroyed after the flood.
【解析】
【详解】考查动词的时态和语态。“洪水”使用名词flood，“在……以后”使用介词after，“村庄”使用名词village作主语，“几乎”使用副词almost，“被毁”使用动词destroy，和主语之间是被动关系，且是描述过去发生的事情，应用一般过去时的被动语态，主语是名词单数，be动词使用was。故翻译为：The village was almost destroyed after the flood.。
65. 我试着深呼吸，让自己平静下来，但我还是很紧张，这让我失去了得第一名的机会。（which）（汉译英）
【答案】I tried to take deep breaths to calm myself down, but I was still very nervous, which cost me the chance to get the first prize/which made me lose the chance to get the first prize.
【解析】
【详解】考查时态和定语从句。分析句意可知，句子描述过去的事情，时态用一般过去时，“我试着深呼吸”是I tried to take deep breaths，“让自己平静下来”用不定式表目的，是to calm myself down，“但我还是很紧张”是but I was still very nervous，“这让我失去了得第一名的机会”用which引导的定语从句，可翻译为which cost me the chance to get the first prize/which made me lose the chance to get the first prize，因此整句话翻译为I tried to take deep breaths to calm myself down, but I was still very nervous, which cost me the chance to get the first prize/which made me lose the chance to get the first prize.

【答案】Dear principal,
I’m Li Hua, a student from senior three. Learning that our school is asking for our opinions on shortening the school week to four days, I am writing to express my thoughts.
Although shortening the school days will give students better rest and plenty of time to do the things that they are fond of, it will be a disaster for the students who need more time to get ready for their school career. As a senior three student, I think a four-day school week is not a good choice for us students, because we not only need teacher’s help in academy but also ought to do a number of exercises to prepare for the college entrance examination.
I would appreciate it if you could consider my suggestion and make a careful decision.
