Bookstores are fascinating places. That’s because the books on the shelves can take you away to magical lands, help you learn a foreign language, or cook a delicious meal. But when your community is too small to house a real brick bookstore, sometimes you have to make a compromise. A mobile bookstore that brings books around the country was the result. That is the case for Rita Collins, 70, who dreamed of opening a used bookstore after retiring from teaching.
A business planning class from the American Booksellers Association convinced Collins to abandon her idea that opening a bookstore in the small town where she lives, which would not be sustainable. Eureka, Montana, located just seven miles from the Canadian border, only has a population of 1,517. Collins asked her instructors about a traveling bookstore on wheels and they were skeptical. But she persevered.
Collins was inspired by Dylans Mobile Bookstore, a traveling bookstore in Wales run by Jeff Towns. She contacted Jeff for advice but she was largely on her own when it came to building her bookstore. First, she had to find a vehicle large enough to stand in. Then she had to have it refitted with shelves that would hold the books at a 15-degree angle so that they would stay in place while in transit. Collins named her bookstore St Rita’s Traveling Bookstore, which has been on the road since 2015.
At first, she drove through Montana and then she made her first cross-country trip in 2016. After she retired in 2017, it became a full-time job all year round. Collins and her mobile bookstore have visited 30 states, stopping at festivals and events along the way. While the locations change, some things always stay the same. Collins loves meeting people and making connections. While she loves what she does, Collins doesn’t think she can keep doing it. In several years, she hopes to pass her traveling bookstore onto another bibliophile who shares the same interest and will keep it on the road.
4. Why did Collins abandon opening a bookstore
A. It would cost a lot of money. B. It was not promising.
C. It would be out of date. D. It was not approved.
5. Why were the shelves designed at a 15-degree angle
A. To beautify the mobile bookstore.
B. To make full use of space of the shelves.
C. To keep the bookstore’s balance.
D. To protect the books from falling down.
6. Which of the following can best describe Collins
A. Merciful and delightful. B. Intelligent and reasonable.
C. Determined and social. D. Generous and lovely.
7. What does the underlined word “bibliophile” in the last paragraph mean
A. A book lover. B. A publisher.
C. A famous writer. D. An editor.
C
You know the feeling. You finish a full meal and arc like “I’m never eating again.” But then, out comes a beautiful piece of cake. And, you said you were full, but not for dessert! It turns out you really can “make room” for dessert.
And there’s a scientific reason why. The thing that gives you room for dessert is called “Sensory—Specific Satiety” That’s what Dr. Rolls, a nutritional scientist, has been studying since the 1980s. Here is how her experiment went. She gave six people a giant plate of spaghetti and told them to eat until they were full. And then, for the second course, she gave them more. Then, she gave them ice cream. On average, after they said they were full on spaghetti, each person could eat just one more ounce of it in their second serving. But when she gave them ice cream, somehow they could eat three times as much. They “made room” for dessert.
The experiment shows that when you feel full, it’s not necessarily that your stomach is physically full. It’s more about how interested you are in—eating more. Sensory—specific satiety is the change in how much you like a food, how much you want to eat, as you’re eating it. “I’ve just had enough of the food; I want something else” is really what sensory—specific satiety is.
And that natural ability has a purpose: it’s meant to keep us healthy. It’s going to help to guarantee that we’re going to cat the variety of nutrients that we need. However, it can backfire of course, because if we are presented with a variety of foods, it makes us extra likely to overeat.
8. What’s the purpose of the first paragraph
A. To lead to the main topic. B. To make a comparison.
C. To amuse the readers. D. To summarize the main idea.
9. According to Dr. Rolls, why did the people “make room” for ice cream
A. Because they had a wrong feeling.
B. Because there was a change in food variety.
C. Because they lied about feeling full.
D. Because the ice cream was more delicious.
10. What does the underlined word “backfire” in paragraph 4 probably mean
A. Consume much energy. B. Discourage people from eating.
C. Have the opposite result. D. Produce a helpful effect.
11. In which section of a newspaper may the text appear
A. Entertainment. B. Education. C. Culture. D. Health.

Tess was eight years old when she heard her mother and father talking about her little brother Andrew. All she knew was that he was very sick and they were completely out of money.
Only a very costly surgery could save him and it was looking like there was no one to loan them the money. She heard her father say to her tearful mother with whispered desperation, “Only a miracle(奇迹) can save him now.”
Tess went to her bedroom and pulled a glass jar from its hiding place. She poured all the change out on the floor and counted it carefully. Placing the coins back in the jar and twisting on the cap, she slipped out the back door and made her way to Rexall’s Drug Store.
She waited patiently for the pharmacist(药剂师) to give her some attention but he was too busy at that moment. Finally she took a quarter from her jar and banged it on the glass counter. It worked. “And what do you want ” the pharmacist said, “I’m talking to my brother from Chicago whom I haven’t seen in ages.” Tess replied, “My little brother, Andrew, has something bad growing inside his head and my father says only a miracle can save him now. So how much does a miracle cost ” “We don’t sell miracles here, little girl. I’m sorry but I can’t help you,” the pharmacist said.
The pharmacist’s brother was a well-dressed man. He came up and asked her, “What kind of miracle does your brother need ” “I don’t know,” Tess replied with her eyes welling up. “I just know he is really sick and my mother says he needs an operation. But she can’t pay for it, so I want to use my money.” The man from Chicago asked, “How much do you have ” “One dollar and eleven cents,” Tess answered.
注意：

细节理解题。根据The Chinatown Inn (About $30 per night)中“The guests’ complaint is that the air condition is too cold, so make sure you get a room with a window.( 客人抱怨的是空调太冷了，所以一定要订一个有窗户的房间。)”可知，在唐人街旅馆，你被告知要选择一个有窗户的房间，这样你就可以让一些温暖的空气进来，因为房间空调太冷了。故选C。
【2题详解】

Bookstores are fascinating places. That’s because the books on the shelves can take you away to magical lands, help you learn a foreign language, or cook a delicious meal. But when your community is too small to house a real brick bookstore, sometimes you have to make a compromise. A mobile bookstore that brings books around the country was the result. That is the case for Rita Collins, 70, who dreamed of opening a used bookstore after retiring from teaching.
A business planning class from the American Booksellers Association convinced Collins to abandon her idea that opening a bookstore in the small town where she lives, which would not be sustainable. Eureka, Montana, located just seven miles from the Canadian border, only has a population of 1,517. Collins asked her instructors about a traveling bookstore on wheels and they were skeptical. But she persevered.
Collins was inspired by Dylans Mobile Bookstore, a traveling bookstore in Wales run by Jeff Towns. She contacted Jeff for advice but she was largely on her own when it came to building her bookstore. First, she had to find a vehicle large enough to stand in. Then she had to have it refitted with shelves that would hold the books at a 15-degree angle so that they would stay in place while in transit. Collins named her bookstore St Rita’s Traveling Bookstore, which has been on the road since 2015.
At first, she drove through Montana and then she made her first cross-country trip in 2016. After she retired in 2017, it became a full-time job all year round. Collins and her mobile bookstore have visited 30 states, stopping at festivals and events along the way. While the locations change, some things always stay the same. Collins loves meeting people and making connections. While she loves what she does, Collins doesn’t think she can keep doing it. In several years, she hopes to pass her traveling bookstore onto another bibliophile who shares the same interest and will keep it on the road.
4. Why did Collins abandon opening a bookstore
A. It would cost a lot of money. B. It was not promising.
C. It would be out of date. D. It was not approved.
5. Why were the shelves designed at a 15-degree angle
A. To beautify the mobile bookstore.
B. To make full use of space of the shelves.
C. To keep the bookstore’s balance.
D. To protect the books from falling down.
6. Which of the following can best describe Collins
A. Merciful and delightful. B. Intelligent and reasonable.
C. Determined and social. D. Generous and lovely.
7. What does the underlined word “bibliophile” in the last paragraph mean
A. A book lover. B. A publisher.
C. A famous writer. D. An editor.

【导语】本文是一篇记叙文，文章介绍了柯林斯创办的移动书店，她已经驾驶她的书店走遍了美国的30个州。
【4题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段的“A business planning class from the American Booksellers Association convinced Collins to abandon her idea that opening a bookstore in the small town where she lives, which would not be sustainable.(美国书商协会 的一门商业规划课程说服柯林斯放弃了在她居住的小镇上开书店的想法，因为这是不可持续的。)”以及“Eureka, Montana, located just seven miles from the Canadian border, only has a population of 1,517.(蒙大拿州尤里卡距离加拿大边境只有7英里，人口只有1517人。)”可知，柯林斯居住的地方是个僻远小镇，人口不足 2000 人，在镇里开书店没有发展前景。故选B项。
【5题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段的“Then she had to have it refitted with shelves that would hold the books at a 15-degree angle so that they would stay in place while in transit. Collins named her bookstore St Rita’s Traveling Bookstore, which has been on the road since 2015.(然后她又重新安装了书架，把书以15度的角度放好，这样书在运输过程中就不会变形。柯林斯将她的书店命名为圣丽塔旅行书店，自2015年以来一直在路上。)”可知，移动书店的每一层书架倾斜 15 度角，目的是防止书籍在车子运行过程中掉落。故选D项。
【6题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段中“Collins asked her instructors about a traveling bookstore on wheels and they were skeptical. But she persevered.( 柯林斯向她的导师们询问关于“车轮上的旅行书店”的问题，他们表示怀疑。但是她坚持了下去。)”以及最后一段中“Collins loves meeting people and making connections.(柯林斯喜欢与人交往和建立联系)”可推知，柯林斯也是一个意志坚定和爱交际的人。故选C项。

C
You know the feeling. You finish a full meal and arc like “I’m never eating again.” But then, out comes a beautiful piece of cake. And, you said you were full, but not for dessert! It turns out you really can “make room” for dessert.
And there’s a scientific reason why. The thing that gives you room for dessert is called “Sensory—Specific Satiety” That’s what Dr. Rolls a nutritional scientist, has been studying since the 1980s. Here is how her experiment went. She gave six people a giant plate of spaghetti and told them to eat until they were full. And then, for the second course, she gave them more. Then, she gave them ice cream. On average, after they said they were full on spaghetti, each person could eat just one more ounce of it in their second serving. But when she gave them ice cream, somehow they could eat three times as much. They “made room” for dessert.
The experiment shows that when you feel full, it’s not necessarily that your stomach is physically full. It’s more about how interested you are in—eating more. Sensory—specific satiety is the change in how much you like a food, how much you want to eat, as you’re eating it. “I’ve just had enough of the food; I want something else” is really what sensory—specific satiety is.
And that natural ability has a purpose: it’s meant to keep us healthy. It’s going to help to guarantee that we’re going to cat the variety of nutrients that we need. However, it can backfire of course, because if we are presented with a variety of foods, it makes us extra likely to overeat.
8. What’s the purpose of the first paragraph
A. To lead to the main topic. B. To make a comparison.
C. To amuse the readers. D. To summarize the main idea.
9. According to Dr. Rolls, why did the people “make room” for ice cream
A. Because they had a wrong feeling.
B. Because there was a change in food variety.
C. Because they lied about feeling full.
D. Because the ice cream was more delicious.
10. What does the underlined word “backfire” in paragraph 4 probably mean
A. Consume much energy. B. Discourage people from eating.
C. Have the opposite result. D. Produce a helpful effect.
11. In which section of a newspaper may the text appear
A. Entertainment. B. Education. C. Culture. D. Health.
【答案】8. A 9. B 10. C 11. D
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了实验表明，当你感到饱的时候，并不一定是因为你的胃已经饱了，这种叫“特定感觉的饱腹感”。
【8题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段第一句“And there’s a scientific reason why.(这是有科学依据的。)”可知，上文第一段是通过一个事例来引出下文一个研究，也就是本文的主题“特定感觉的饱腹感”。故选A。
【9题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段最后一句““I’ve just had enough of the food; I want something else” is really what sensory—specific satiety is.(“我吃得已经够多了；我想要别的东西”这就是特定感觉的饱腹感。)”以及最后一段“It’s going to help to guarantee that we’re going to cat the variety of nutrients that we need. However, it can backfire of course, because if we are presented with a variety of foods, it makes us extra likely to overeat. (这将有助于保证我们能够获得我们所需的各种营养。然而，这当然会适得其反，因为如果我们面前摆着各种各样的食物，我们就更有可能暴饮暴食。)”可知，人们之所以在吃饱一样食物之后还能吃下别的东西，最关键在于食物的种类发生了变化，即食物多样性。故选B。
【10题详解】
词句猜测题。根据划线词后半句“because if we are presented with a variety of foods，it makes us extra likely to overeat.（如果人们面对各种各样的食物，特定感觉的饱腹感使他们更有可能吃得过多。）”可知，这是起反作用效果，所以backfire意为“反效果”。A. Consume much energy消耗大量能源；B. Discourage people from eating劝阻人们不要吃东西；C. Have the opposite result结果正好相反；D. Produce a helpful effect产生有益的效果，故选C。
【11题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章最后一段“And that natural ability has a purpose: it’s meant to keep us healthy.（而这种天生的能力有一个目的：它是为了让我们保持健康）”可知，这篇文章来自于报纸的健康版块。A. Entertainment娱乐；B. Education教育；C. Culture文化；D. Health健康。故选D。

Pocket money can give children a chance to experience the three things they can do with the money. They can spend it by giving it to a good cause.

Saving can also open the door to future saving and investing for children.

【答案】12. B 13. G 14. C 15. D 16. F
【解析】
【分析】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要是关于孩子如何使用零花钱的问题，作者给出了自己的看法。
【12题详解】
根据前一句“Why do their parents just give them a certain amount (为什么他们的父母只给他们一定量的钱)”可知，此处应该是对问题做出回答，B项中的“let kids learn how to manage their own money”给出父母只给一定量的钱的理由。因此推断B项“一个主要目的是让孩子们学会如何管理自己的钱”符合语境。故选B。
【13题详解】
根据下两句“Some children get weekly pocket money. Others get monthly pocket money.(有些人的零用钱是每个星期给的。有的人的零用钱是每个月给的)”可知，此处在讲给零用钱的时间。G项中的“Timing”与之呼应，因此推断G项“时间是另一个考虑因素”符合语境。故选G。
【14题详解】
根据上文“First of all, children are expected to make a choice between spending and saving. Then parents should make the children understand what is expected to pay for with the money. (首先，孩子们应该在消费和储蓄之间做出选择。然后，父母应该让孩子明白，他们应该用这些钱来支付什么。)”可知，本段主要讲述孩子如何花自己零花钱，要在合适的时间花自己的零花钱。空前一句“Parents are usually advised not to offer more money until it is the right time.(父母通常被建议在时机成熟之前不要给孩子更多的钱)说明父母做的事情是在时机成熟前不要给孩子太多的钱，C项中的“spending must be done with a budget（预算）”呼应上文，说明钱不多，孩子们就会学会花钱要有预算。因此推断C项“通过这样做，这些孩子将会学到花钱必须要有预算”符合语境，this指代上文父母的做法。故选C。
【15题详解】
根据上文“In order to encourage their children to do some housework, some parents give pocket money if the children help around the home. Some experts think it not wise to pay the children for doing that.( 为了鼓励孩子做一些家务，如果孩子帮忙做家务一些父母就给零用钱。一些专家认为因为孩子做的付钱是不明智的)可知，专家认为给钱让孩子做家务是错误的，D项中的“helping at home”与上文的“help around the home”呼应，因此推断D项“因为在家里帮忙是孩子家庭生活的一部分”符合语境，说明不应该因为做家务给孩子钱的原因。故选D。
【16题详解】
根据下一句“Saving helps children understand that costly goals require sacrifice.(储蓄可以帮助孩子们明白，昂贵的目标是需要牺牲的)可知，此处是关于储蓄的话题，F项中的“save”与“saving”一致，因此推断F项“他们可以把它储存起来以备将来之用”符合上下文，下文解释了帮助孩子储蓄的益处。故选F。

【解析】
【48题详解】
考查固定搭配。句意：炎热的天气是造成缺水的部分原因。根据“the water shortage”和“The hot weather”可知，此处是指炎热的天气是造成缺水的部分原因，所以应用be to blame for表示“是……的原因”。此处描述客观事实，所以应用一般现在时。主语weather为不可数名词。故填①is②to blame for。
【49题详解】
考查动词短语。句意：玛丽的朋友们鼓励她参与慈善事业。根据charity可知，此处是指参与慈善事业，动词短语get involved in意为“参与”，切合文意。encourage sb to do意为“鼓励某人做某事”，此处应用to do不定式。故填get involved in。
【50题详解】
考查动词。句意：一支由112名医生和护士组成的医疗队在黎明前飞抵武汉。根据“of 112 doctors and nurses”可知，此处是指一支由112名医生和护士组成的医疗队，动词短语consist of意为“由……组成”，切合文意。空格处和谓语之间没有连词，consist和主语构成主动关系，所以应用现在分词形式作后置定语。故填consisting。
【51题详解】
考查形容词。句意：他五岁时就表现出非凡的音乐才能。根据“as a musician”可知，此处是指非凡的音乐才能，所以应用形容词exceptional表示“非凡的”作定语。故填exceptional。

【答案】 ①. seemed ②. that ③. had ④. delivered
【解析】
【详解】考查固定句式、动词短语和一般过去时。it seems that意为“似乎”，为固定句式。have sth done意为“让某物被……”，侧重指让别人做这件事。表示“运送”应用动词deliver。根据“the woman liked the water from the pump so much”可知，此处应用一般过去时。故填①seemed②that③had④delivered。

【答案】 ①. keeps ②. serves ③. high ④. demand
【解析】
【详解】考查一般现在时、主谓一致和动词短语。根据“is the fact that”可知，此处应用一般现在时。keep sb from doing意为“阻止某人做某事”。主语为what，谓语应用第三人称单数。表示“满足对……的高需求”应用serve the high demand for，主语farming为不可数名词，谓语动词用三单形式。故填①keeps②serves③high④demand。

【详解】考查一般过去时和动词短语。find oneself doing意为“发现某人正在做某事”，主语为she，所以反身代词应用herself。表示“大胆发言”应用动词短语speak up。根据“what surprised her was that”可知，此处应用一般过去时。故填①found②herself③speaking④up。
55. 虽年事已高，但袁隆平仍然保持年轻的心态，而且满怀憧憬，大家都在兴奋地期待他创造的下一个奇迹。

56. 你可以决定你想要怎样的生活，并对你的饮食做出正确的决定。

【答案】
Dear Fellow Students,
As we know, there are more and more overweight teenager. The reasons for this are as follows. First of all, most fat teenagers prefer food with too much fat and sugar to a balanced diet. Secondly, some teenagers go to bed and get up very late, and they don’t have a regular schedule, which is harmful to their health. What’s more, less exercise can also make children overweight.
In my opinion, overweight children should go on a balanced diet. They should eat more vegetables and fruit because they are rich in vitamins.

58. 阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。
Tess was eight years old when she heard her mother and father talking about her little brother, Andrew. All she knew was that he was very sick and they were completely out of money.
Only a very costly surgery could save him and it was looking like there was no one to loan them the money. She heard her father say to her tearful mother with whispered desperation, “Only a miracle(奇迹) can save him now.”
Tess went to her bedroom and pulled a glass jar from its hiding place. She poured all the change out on the floor and counted it carefully. Placing the coins back in the jar and twisting on the cap, she slipped out the back door and made her way to Rexall’s Drug Store.
She waited patiently for the pharmacist(药剂师) to give her some attention but he was too busy at that moment. Finally she took a quarter from her jar and banged it on the glass counter. It worked. “And what do you want ” the pharmacist said, “I’m talking to my brother from Chicago whom I haven’t seen in ages.” Tess replied, “My little brother, Andrew, has something bad growing inside his head and my father says only a miracle can save him now. So how much does a miracle cost ” “We don’t sell miracles here, little girl. I’m sorry but I can’t help you,” the pharmacist said.
The pharmacist’s brother was a well-dressed man. He came up and asked her, “What kind of miracle does your brother need ” “I don’t know,” Tess replied with her eyes welling up. “I just know he is really sick and my mother says he needs an operation. But she can’t pay for it, so I want to use my money.” The man from Chicago asked, “How much do you have ” “One dollar and eleven cents,” Tess answered.
注意：

_____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】 The man touched Tess’s head and smiled. He told Tess that the money was the exact price of a miracle for her little brother. He took her money in one hand and he grasped her hand with the other hand. He asked her to take him to where she lived. He wanted to see her brother and meet her parents. He told Tess he had the kind of miracle she needed.
In fact, the man was a famous doctor. He promised to help the poor girl. The operation was completed without charge and it wasn’t long before Andrew went home again. Tess’s Mom and Dad were happily talking about the chain of events that had led them to this place. “That surgery was a real miracle. I wonder how much it would have cost,” her Mom whispered. Tess smiled and she knew exactly how much the miracle cost—one dolar and eleven cents plus the faith of a little child.
