Holly Cooke wasn’t a fan of weekends. Whenever Friday rolled around, it was a reminder that she had no one to spend her spare time with.
“I was lonely,” said Cooke, who relocated from Stoke-on-Trent — a city in central England — to London when she was 22. “I moved here knowing no one.” She had high hopes of going to restaurants, bars and the theater as she had done before, but she didn’t want to do those activities alone. “I was desiring community: people who wanted to hang out and have fun,” said Cooke, now 26.
She grew so eager for company, she said that she eventually found herself Googling: “How to make friends in London.” The search proved futile, though she found a few other women who were also lonely in London on some social media apps.
Cooke decided to create a Facebook group called “The London Lonely Girls Club,” and invited the people she connected with on the apps to join. She then asked everyone to meet for brunch (早午餐). “It was so difficult,” she said, adding that she asked a friend from out of town to come in for the brunch, in case no one else showed up. “Saying that you’re lonely and you don’t have people around, admitting to that was really scary.”
Cooke was pleasantly surprised when five women showed up and they all got along well. This proved she was not alone in her loneliness, and that she could help others in the same situation. She decided to start planning meetups every few weeks, and word slowly spread about the Facebook group. Now, five years later, the London Lonely Girls Club has more than 35,000 members.
Cooke said she lost count of how many women have made lasting friendships through her group. “It’s beautiful and rewarding, and it’s the reason I’ve carried on,” she said. “As long as there is a need, we will be here.”
4. What can we learn about Holly Cooke
A. She was alone because of being addicted to social media apps.
B. She got used to the lifestyle of being alone on weekends.
C. She had little time to make friends after moving to London.
D. She used to meet friends on weekends when in Stoke-on-Trent.
5. What does the underlined word “futile” in paragraph 3 mean
A. Unsuccessful. B. Unstoppable.
C. Unusual. D. Unclear.
6. Why did Holly Cooke ask a friend from out of town to come to the brunch
A. She wanted to have an optional plan in case it didn’t work.
B. She wanted to introduce her friend to the other women.
C. She needed someone to help her to organize the meetup.
D. She was afraid that no one else would come as planned.
7. What do we know about the London Lonely Girls Club
A. It is well received. B. It is not rewarding.
C. It is less creative. D. It is not fruitful.
【答案】4. D 5. A 6. D 7. A
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。在伦敦定居的霍莉·库克(Holly Cooke),由于没有朋友而感到孤单,于是她创立了“伦敦孤独女孩俱乐部”帮助自己和其他女性找朋友,并取得了成功。
【4题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段中的““I was lonely,” said Cooke, who relocated from Stoke-on-Trent — a city in central England — to London when she was 22. “I moved here knowing no one.” She had high hopes of going to restaurants, bars and the theater as she had done before, but she didn’t want to do those activities alone. (“我很孤独,”库克说,她22岁时从英格兰中部城市特伦特河畔斯托克搬到了伦敦。“我搬到这里时不认识任何人。”她对像以前一样去餐馆、酒吧和剧院寄予厚望,但她不想一个人做这些活动)”可推知,库克在英格兰中部城市特伦特河畔斯托克的时候经常和朋友们出去聚会。故选D。
【5题详解】
词句猜测题。根据第三段“She grew so eager for company, she said that she eventually found herself Googling: “How to make friends in London.” The search proved futile, though she found a few other women who were also lonely in London on some social media apps.(她说,她越来越渴望有人陪伴,最终发现自己在谷歌上搜索:“如何在伦敦交朋友。”事实证明,搜索大多是futile,尽管她在一些社交媒体应用程序上发现了其他一些在伦敦也很孤独的女性)”可知,库克想要通过网上搜索找朋友的结果并不成功,所以futile的意思应该是“不成功的,徒劳的”。A. Unsuccessful不成功的;B. Unstoppable不可阻挡的;C. Unusual不寻常的;D. Unclear不清楚的。故选A。
【6题详解】
细节理解题。根据第四段中的““It was so difficult,” she said, adding that she asked a friend from out of town to come in for the brunch, in case no one else showed up. (“这太难了,”她说,并补充说,她请一位外地朋友来吃早午餐,以防没有其他人出现)”可知,库克请一位外地朋友来吃早午餐,以防没有其他人出现。故选D。
【7题详解】
推理判断题。根据第五段中“Now, five years later, the London Lonely Girls Club has more than 35,000 members. (如今,五年过去了,伦敦孤独女孩俱乐部拥有35000多名会员)”可推知,伦敦孤独女孩俱乐部很受大家的欢迎。故选A。
C
A few years ago, I took a sightseeing trip to Washington D. C.. I saw many of our nation’s treasures, and I also saw a lot of unfortunate people like beggars and homeless folks in the streets.
Standing outside the Ronald Reagan Center, I heard a voice say, "Can you help me " When I turned around, I saw an elderly blind woman with her hand extended. In a natural reaction, I reached into my pocket, pulled out all of my loose change and placed it in her hand. I didn’t even look at her. I was annoyed at being bothered by a beggar.
But the blind woman smiled and said, "I don’t want your money. I just need help finding the post office."
Immediately, I realized what I had done. I acted with prejudice—I judged a person simply for what I thought she was.
The thing I had forgotten about myself is that I am an immigrant. I left Honduras and arrived in America at the age of 15. Through the years, I have been a dishwasher, cashier, mechanic and pizza delivery driver among many other jobs, and finally I became a network engineer.
In my own life, I have experienced many open acts of prejudice. I remember a time, at age 17—I was a busboy, and I heard a father tell his little boy that if he did not do well at school, he would end up like me.
But now, living in my American middle-class lifestyle, it is too easy to forget my past, to forget who I am and where I have been, and to lose sight of where I want to be going. That blind woman on the street of Washington D. C. cured me of my blindness. She reminded me to always keep my eyes and heart open.
8. When the author came to America at first________.
A. he usually did some work with a little payment. B. he used to beg for some money on the street.
C. he lived a comfortable life as a network engineer. D. he was respected by others all the time.
9. According to the passage, what did the author regret
A. That he gave all his change to the blind woman.
B. That he came to Washington D.
C. That he didn’t tell the woman the way to the post office.
D. The way he treated the blind woman.
10. The father mentioned in the passage wanted ________.
A. to encourage his son to make a living by himself B. his son to become a busboy in the future
C. his son to work harder at school D. to remind his son to depend on himself at school
11. We can infer all of the following statements from the passage EXCEPT________.
A. He disliked being bothered by beggars.
B He once suffered a lot.
C. The blind woman didn’t beg for money at that time.
D. He was happy to give away his money to beggars.
【答案】8. A 9. D 10. C 11. D
【解析】
【分析】这是一篇夹叙夹议文。作者几年前去华盛顿观光时误以为一位问路的年老的盲人妇女是乞丐,向自己乞讨,作者意识到了自己的行为带有偏见,从而联想到自己也曾是移民,遭到过很多偏见。而在华盛顿特区街上的那个盲人妇女治好了作者的“失明”,她提醒作者要时刻睁开眼睛,敞开心扉。

Go fly a kite
Learning how to fly a kite is simple and flying kites can be a fun form of exercise.
Of course, the first thing you need is a kite and a ball of string (线). ____16____ Then wait for a windy day.
When the perfect day arrives, find an open space, such as field. ____17____
Before flying your kite, find out which way the wind is blowing. ____18____ To begin flying your kite, stand with your back to the wind and hold the kite up so the wind can catch it. If the day is not very windy, you may need to get your kite started by running.
____19____ At the same time walk backwards a few steps to keep the string tight. Now that your kite is up in the air, you can decide how long to fly it and how high you want it to go.
____20____ Slowly wind up (卷起) the string. Try not to pull your kite in too fast or it may crash (坠落).
Flying kite is a great way to spend a windy afternoon. If you follow these steps carefully, you will have something more fun to do than sitting inside and watching TV. So on the next windy day, get up off the sofa. Go fly a kite!
A. You can do this by throwing grass into the air.
B. Finally, you will need to bring your kite down.
C. You can buy your kite and string at a toy shop.

【答案】16. C 17. F 18. A 19. G 20. B
【解析】
【分析】这是一篇说明文。文章讲述了放风筝的准备事项与步骤。
【16题详解】
空格位于段中。空格前一句句意为:第一件事情你需要准备一个风筝和一卷线。选项C中的“kite and string(风筝和线)”与上句中的a kite and a ball of string完全呼应,并且人称也都使用的第二人称。故选C。
【17题详解】
空格位于段尾。空格前一句句意为:当有合适的天气的时候,找一块空地,比例田野。这一段主要论述放风筝的地点。选项F(不要在靠近树的地方放风筝,以免被挂住)也是讲述放风筝的地点,与本段中心一致。故选F。
【18题详解】
空格位于段中。空格前一句句意为:在放风筝前,先确定风向哪个方向吹。选项A(你可以通过把草扔向空中的办法来确定)与上句意思一致。This与上句中的find out which way呼应,故选A。
【19题详解】
空格位于段首。空格后句意为:同时,往后走几步保持风筝线是直的。由此可知,这段话是讲述放风筝的过程。选项G(一旦风筝飞起来,放更多的线让它爬的更高)中的let more string与keep the string tight意思一致,故选G。
【20题详解】
空格位于段首。空格后句意为:慢慢地卷起线。由此可知,这句话是放完风筝后收线。选项B(最后,你需要把风筝放下来)与段落内容一致,故选B。
【点睛】七选五题目主要考查学生综合的英语逻辑思维能力。一篇好的短文,不仅在内容上要前后一致,而且还要语篇结构清晰,上下文逻辑意义严谨。内容的前后一致体现在段内及语篇内话题的自然过渡。语篇结构主要体现为:文章是总分结构,还是按时间或空间顺序发展的,还是辩证三段论的编排的。逻辑意义的严谨最主要的可以通过代词、连词和副词等形式来体现。例如本题通过读前两段就可以知道这是按照先后顺序介绍放风筝的准备事项和步骤。凭借这个结构,以及每段首句为每段中心句的写作手法,我们几乎可以确定第四题和第五题的答案。第二题依据段落内容的一致性解题,第一题和第三题依据上下句之间关键词的重复原则解题。本文的难度系数不高,但是本文的解题策略值得多研究,为以后解七选五积累经验。

47. 阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一个完整的短文。
One day my grandfather gave me a gift — a piggy bank. It had an opening through which one could put money in but the opening was not big enough to reach in and get the money out. The only way to get at the money was to break the piggy bank open. My grandfather explained that was the whole idea; the piggy bank would help save my money so that, at the end of the year,I might have enough for that bike I dreamt about. He asked if I would put some of the money he gave me into the piggy bank. I agreed immediately and promised that I wouldn't break it open until I could afford my dream bike.
Whenever he gave me a little bit of money, he would say, "This is for spending. But you can save some and put it in the piggy bank if you want to save it up." When he gave me larger amounts, it was clearly for saving in the piggy bank. For some time, this worked fine. I loved shaking the piggy bank and hearing the sound of the coins. As it became heavier, I grew more excited, dreaming about buying my new bike, and all the adventures I could have on it
Whenever I wanted to take some money from the piggy bank to buy delicious ice-creams or beautiful pens,I would imagine riding my bike on the street,and thinking of that, my thoughts about ice-creams or pens went away. So for almost six months, I only put money into the piggy bank without taking any out. I thought I wouldn't break my piggy bank for anything. But one day something unexpected happened. I saw a piece of news on the television that a serious earthquake had happened in a nearby province. As many houses were destroyed, a lot of children became homeless. Seeing their shabby clothes and crying faces, I was sleepless that night.

Paragraph 2:
My grandfather was surprised by my behavior.
___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】I knew I should do something. I went to my piggy bank and was about to break it and withdraw money when my mind came back to the bike I wanted to buy, and I hesitated. Thinking of the look in the eyes of the children hoping for help in the earthquake, I grabbed the piggy bank and threw it to the ground. Suddenly, the coins rolled all over the floor. "Yes, those children need help and need the money more." I said to myself.
My grandfather was surprised by my behavior. When he realized what had happened, he fondly touched my head and said, "Good boy, you did the right thing. Grandpa is proud of you." He continued, "My dear grandson, you deserve that bicycle. As a bonus, let's buy that bike together now. Then, go for a spring outing by bike. “Thank you, Grandpa. ” I was overwhelmed with happiness.

Holly Cooke wasn’t a fan of weekends. Whenever Friday rolled around, it was a reminder that she had no one to spend her spare time with.
“I was lonely,” said Cooke, who relocated from Stoke-on-Trent — a city in central England — to London when she was 22. “I moved here knowing no one.” She had high hopes of going to restaurants, bars and the theater as she had done before, but she didn’t want to do those activities alone. “I was desiring community: people who wanted to hang out and have fun,” said Cooke, now 26.
She grew so eager for company, she said that she eventually found herself Googling: “How to make friends in London.” The search proved futile, though she found a few other women who were also lonely in London on some social media apps.
Cooke decided to create a Facebook group called “The London Lonely Girls Club,” and invited the people she connected with on the apps to join. She then asked everyone to meet for brunch (早午餐). “It was so difficult,” she said, adding that she asked a friend from out of town to come in for the brunch, in case no one else showed up. “Saying that you’re lonely and you don’t have people around, admitting to that was really scary.”
Cooke was pleasantly surprised when five women showed up and they all got along well. This proved she was not alone in her loneliness, and that she could help others in the same situation. She decided to start planning meetups every few weeks, and word slowly spread about the Facebook group. Now, five years later, the London Lonely Girls Club has more than 35,000 members.
Cooke said she lost count of how many women have made lasting friendships through her group. “It’s beautiful and rewarding and it’s the reason I’ve carried on,” she said. “As long as there is a need, we will be here.”
4. What can we learn about Holly Cooke
A. She was alone because of being addicted to social media apps.
B. She got used to the lifestyle of being alone on weekends.
C. She had little time to make friends after moving to London.
D. She used to meet friends on weekends when in Stoke-on-Trent.
5. What does the underlined word “futile” in paragraph 3 mean
A. Unsuccessful. B. Unstoppable.
C. Unusual. D. Unclear.
6. Why did Holly Cooke ask a friend from out of town to come to the brunch
A. She wanted to have an optional plan in case it didn’t work.
B. She wanted to introduce her friend to the other women.
C. She needed someone to help her to organize the meetup.
D. She was afraid that no one else would come as planned.
7. What do we know about the London Lonely Girls Club
A. It is well received. B. It is not rewarding.
C. It is less creative. D. It is not fruitful.
C
A few years ago, I took a sightseeing trip to Washington D. C.. I saw many of our nation’s treasures, and I also saw a lot of unfortunate people like beggars and homeless folks in the streets.
Standing outside the Ronald Reagan Center, I heard a voice say, "Can you help me " When I turned around, I saw an elderly blind woman with her hand extended. In a natural reaction, I reached into my pocket, pulled out all of my loose change and placed it in her hand. I didn’t even look at her. I was annoyed at being bothered by a beggar.
But the blind woman smiled and said, "I don’t want your money. I just need help finding the post office."
Immediately, I realized what I had done. I acted with prejudice—I judged a person simply for what I thought she was.
The thing I had forgotten about myself is that I am an immigrant. I left Honduras and arrived in America at the age of 15. Through the years, I have been a dishwasher, cashier, mechanic and pizza delivery driver among many other jobs, and finally I became a network engineer.
In my own life, I have experienced many open acts of prejudice. I remember a time, at age 17—I was a busboy, and I heard a father tell his little boy that if he did not do well at school, he would end up like me.
But now, living in my American middle-class lifestyle, it is too easy to forget my past, to forget who I am and where I have been, and to lose sight of where I want to be going. That blind woman on the street of Washington D. C. cured me of my blindness. She reminded me to always keep my eyes and heart open.
8. When the author came to America at first________.
A. he usually did some work with a little payment. B. he used to beg for some money on the street.
C. he lived a comfortable life as a network engineer. D. he was respected by others all the time.
9. According to the passage, what did the author regret
A. That he gave all his change to the blind woman.
B. That he came to Washington D.
C. That he didn’t tell the woman the way to the post office.
D. The way he treated the blind woman.
10. The father mentioned in the passage wanted ________.
A. to encourage his son to make a living by himself B. his son to become a busboy in the future
C. his son to work harder at school D. to remind his son to depend on himself at school
11. We can infer all of the following statements from the passage EXCEPT________.
A He disliked being bothered by beggars.
B. He once suffered a lot.
C. The blind woman didn’t beg for money at that time.
D. He was happy to give away his money to beggars.
D

第二节(满分 25 分)
47. 阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一个完整的短文。
One day my grandfather gave me a gift — a piggy bank. It had an opening through which one could put money in, but the opening was not big enough to reach in and get the money out. The only way to get at the money was to break the piggy bank open. My grandfather explained that was the whole idea; the piggy bank would help save my money so that, at the end of the year,I might have enough for that bike I dreamt about. He asked if I would put some of the money he gave me into the piggy bank. I agreed immediately and promised that I wouldn't break it open until I could afford my dream bike.
Whenever he gave me a little bit of money, he would say, "This is for spending. But you can save some and put it in the piggy bank if you want to save it up." When he gave me larger amounts, it was clearly for saving in the piggy bank. For some time, this worked fine. I loved shaking the piggy bank and hearing the sound of the coins. As it became heavier, I grew more excited, dreaming about buying my new bike, and all the adventures I could have on it
Whenever I wanted to take some money from the piggy bank to buy delicious ice-creams or beautiful pens,I would imagine riding my bike on the street,and thinking of that, my thoughts about ice-creams or pens went away. So for almost six months, I only put money into the piggy bank without taking any out. I thought I wouldn't break my piggy bank for anything. But one day something unexpected happened. I saw a piece of news on the television that a serious earthquake had happened in a nearby province. As many houses were destroyed, a lot of children became homeless. Seeing their shabby clothes and crying faces, I was sleepless that night.
