On Wednesday morning-less than six hours before Hurricane(飓风) Ian made landfall-Kevin Ott and one of his sons went to Fort Myers Beach to check out conditions. Water started rushing in, two to three inches in a minute, forcing a retreat(撤退) to Ott’s home in San Carlos Park, about five miles east of Fort Myers Beach. On the way, he called his children’s maternal grandmother(外祖母) , Mary Ann Dineen, and asked if she wanted him to come and help her.
No, Dineen told him. She had “everything she needed to ride this thing out.” Things were fine at her place. She was having breakfast as usual. They hung up. A little while later, Ott decided to drive five miles south to his boat shop. After they got there, Dineen started calling. “Things are getting bad. I think you need to come down here,” she told him.
Ott got into his car with three of his kids and started driving to Dineen’s house. Before leaving, he fixed a boat to the back of his car. He took the boat toward Dineen’s place and got as close as he could. They’d have to go the final 1.5 miles by boat.
They met a man in a broken-down boat on the way. He had been trying to rescue(营救) his neighbors when his boat gave out, he told Ott. Together, they found his neighbors, one of whom was an old man “just about on his last breath.” They kept going and met many people in need of help. Ott was about to tell a couple that he couldn’t take them, but as he looked closer, he saw the mother was holding a baby wearing a life jacket. “I’m like, ‘We cannot leave these people,’” said Ott.
Ott finally got to Dineen’s and rescued her. They went back and reached Ott’s car. One of his sons dropped everyone off at a hotel.

Ashley Liberto and her dog Bentley have been inseparable since she got him eight years ago. So when Bentley had trouble walking a few months ago, Liberto was worried. “I took him to the pet hospital. He was diagnosed with cancer (被诊断患有癌症) in his right elbow and need to have the leg amputated (截肢),” Liberto says. Luckily, the surgery (外科手术) was successful.
After Bentley started moving again on three legs, Liberto decided to get a custom prosthetic leg (定制的假肢) for him. When she saw the cost of custom dog prosthetics, the teacher at Providence Day School in Charlotte, North Carolina, reached out to some of her former students for help in finding a more affordable choice.
Providence Day School has a class focused on computer-aided design (计算机辅助设计) and 3D printing. The teacher, Todd Johnson, says it’s an introductory level class that teaches students to make basic shapes using the technology. But when Liberto suggested trying to make a prosthetic leg for her dog, the students were excited to help and try something new.
“I thought it was a great chance for the students to see a real-world application of what they’re learning at school. I knew once the students started thinking about it seriously, they would come up with excellent designs,” Johnson says.
The class broke up into small groups to come up with designs for Bentley. Team leader Brandon Hollis and his group came up with the winning design. Hollis’ group spent weeks creating a prosthetic le g for Bentley. “It fit way better than I could have hoped for. It still needs some small changes and then it should fit perfectly,” Hollis says.
The students hope to have a finished custom and comfortable prosthetic leg for Bentley in the next few weeks. Even though the class has ended, the young designers have continued the project on their own time.
8. What happened to Bentley
A. He was hit by a car. B. He had a terrible illness.
C. He got lost on his way home. D. He got separated from his owner.
9. What did Liberto do for Bentley
A. She provided him with some walking training. B. She got some students to play with him.
C. She tried to get a new leg for him. D. She found a new home for him.
10. What does Johnson expect of his students
A. They can put what they’re learning in the classroom into practice.
B. They can think carefully about what they want to learn.
C. They can pay some attention to animal protection.
D. They can develop new 3D printing technology.
11. What is Hollis and his group’s plan for the next few weeks
A. Sharing their design with others. B. Offering free design courses.
C. Making their design better. D. Introducing a new design.
【答案】8. B 9. C 10. A 11. C

In 2012, fewer than 7% of Americans had read poetry, which was down from 17% in 1992. In 2015, poetry was one of the least popular art activities for American grown-ups, with under 10% picking up a book and reading for pleasure. Just when it seemed to be on its deathbed, Instapoetry — easy-to-understand poems that are short enough to fit in your Instagram description — came to save the day.
Instapoetry appeared thanks to social media and Instapoems are usually no longer than a few lines and very direct. The influence Instapoetry has made in the poetry world is great. In 2017, poetry sales were twice what they were in 2016. In 2018, 28 million Americans were reading poems, which was the highest percentage (百分比) of poetry readership in nearly twenty years.
Many people have raved about the new type of poetry. The fact that it’s direct while also being touching is what interests many readers. Before the appearance of Instapoetry, many people thought of poetry as being long and difficult to understand. With Instapoetry, it is easy to understand what the author is trying to say. Readers don’t feel stupid or think the poetry needs to be studied carefully. It’s just simple beauty.
It’s not all sunshine and rainbows, though. Instapoetry has been criticized (批评) for having no meaning and for seeming like passing thoughts thrown on paper, packed up (包装) all pretty and given to the general public. Instapoetry has also been seen as a disgrace (耻辱) to writers who have worked tirelessly to improve their skills and achieve recognition.
In a world filled with a huge amount of entertainment (娱乐活动), people often choose things that are more showy, eye-catching and don’t take up too much time. Instapoetry fits the bill perfectly. While poets who choose to stick to traditional poetry should certainly keep writing, Instapoetry could be just what the poetry world needs to get it back on its feet.
12. What do the numbers in paragraph 1 show
A The difficult situation of poetry.
B. The most popular art activities of Americans.
C. The falling popularity of physical poetry books.
D. The reasons why Americans have lost interest in poetry.
13. What do the underlined words “raved about” in paragraph 3 probably mean
A. Refused. B. Praised. C. Translated. D. Changed.
14. Who is most likely to dislike Instapoetry
A. A social media user who has no interest in poetry. B. A professor who studies the history of poetry.
C. A salesman who sells poetry collections. D. A poet who writes traditional poetry.
15. What can be a suitable title for the text
A. When is a poet an Instapoet
B. Why are we so worried about Instapoetry
C. How is Instapoetry changing the way we see the world
D. Are Instapoets harming the art of poetry or bringing it to life
【答案】12. A 13. B 14. D 15. D
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章先介绍了传统诗歌的困境，然后提出了不同于传统诗歌的Instagram诗歌带来的诗歌复兴，以此探讨Instagram诗歌是破坏诗歌艺术还是让诗歌焕发生机。
【12题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章第一段“In 2012, fewer than 7% of Americans had read poetry, which was down from 17% in 1992. In 2015, poetry was one of the least popular art activities for American grown-ups, with under 10% picking up a book and reading for pleasure.(2012年，只有不到7%的美国人读过诗歌，低于1992年的17%。2015年，诗歌是美国成年人最不受欢迎的艺术活动之一，只有不到10%的人会拿起一本书，出于乐趣而阅读。)”可知，这些数字说明了诗歌的困境。故选A项。
【13题详解】
词句猜测题。根据划线短语的下文“The fact that it’s direct while also being touching is what interests many readers.(它既直接又感人，这一点引起了许多读者的兴趣。)”可知，人们对这种新诗歌应该是赞美的，所以推断划线短语是“赞美”，与praise同义。故选B项。
【14题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章到数第二段“Instapoetry has also been seen as a disgrace (耻辱) to writers who have worked tirelessly to improve their skills and achieve recognition.(Instagram诗歌也被视为对那些不知疲倦地提高自己的技能并获得认可的作家的耻辱。)”可知，写传统诗歌的诗人最有可能不喜欢Instagram诗歌。故选D项。
15题详解】
主旨大意题。分析全文内容可知，文章先介绍了传统诗歌的困境，然后提出了不同于传统诗歌的Instagram诗歌带来的诗歌复兴，以此探讨Instagram诗歌是破坏诗歌艺术还是让诗歌焕发生机，所以D选项“Instagram诗人是在伤害诗歌艺术还是让它焕发生机 ”能概括全文内容，适合用作文章标题。故选D项。

【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。Emily, Bella, Lily和Anna四个女孩既是室友又是朋友，但Emily把Anna看作家人。Emily发烧后Anna没打招呼就离开了，这让Emily很失望，但后天她才知道原来Anna去她家里接她妈妈去医院了。
【46题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一至三段的内容可知，Emily发烧后Lily和Bella在她身边照顾她，所以第一个空应用attend(照顾)，且Emily和attend之间是动宾关系，并结合文中时态可知，这里应用一般过去时的被动语态，即was attended。根据第二段中的“‘Terrible,’ replied Emily with a weak voice.(‘很糟糕，’Emily用微弱的声音回答。)”可知，Emily感觉很虚弱、很不舒服，所以第二空应用comfortable的反义词uncomfortable(不舒服的)。根据第四段中的“Emily, Bella, Lily and Anna were roommates and friends. These four were always together. But Emily and Anna were much closer to each other.(Emily, Bella, Lily和Anna是室友和朋友。这四人总是在一起。但Emily和Anna的关系要亲密得多。)”可知，这四个女孩相处很好，但Emily和Anna的关系尤为亲密，第三空应用especial的副词形式especially(特别，尤其)，修饰close。根据第四段中的“However, to her great disappointment, Anna wasn’t there.(然而，令她非常失望的是，Anna不在现场。)”可知，当Emily得知Anna没有和她在一起时，她很失望，第四空应用disappoint的形容词形式disappointed(失望的)，作表语。根据第六段“‘She rushed out just now. But she didn’t tell us where she went,’ replied Bella.(Bella回答说：‘她刚才冲了出去。但她没有告诉我们她去了哪里。’)”可知，Bella说Anna没说为什么就离开了，leave意为“离开”，且leave表示的动作发生在过去的过去，应用过去完成时，所以第五空应用had left。根据第七段中的“Hearing Bella’s words, Emily started to feel angry towards her friend.(听到Bella的话，Emily开始对她的朋友感到愤怒。)”和“She started thinking Anna was selfish and decided not to talk to her any more.(她开始认为Anna很自私，决定不再和她说话。)”可知，Emily对Anna感到生气，认为她很自私，所以第六空应用anger的形容词angry(生气的)作表语，且这里表示过去发生的事情，因此第七空应用consider(认为)的过去式considered。根据第八段中的“But Emily just refused to talk to her until her mother called to ask about her health.(但Emily就是拒绝和她说话，直到她的母亲打电话询问她的健康状况。)”和最后一段内容可知，Emily的妈妈打来电话告诉她自己发生的事故和Anna的善举，所以第八空应用ring(打电话)的过去式rang，第九空应用kind(善良的)的名词形式kindness(善良，好心的举动)。根据倒数第二段中的“But how do you know I’m having a fever (但你怎么知道我发烧了？)”可知，Emily对妈妈知道自己生病感到惊讶，所以第十空应用surprise的形容词surprised(惊讶的)作表语。故填was attended；uncomfortable；especially；disappointed；had left；angry；considered；rang；kindness；surprised。
【47题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段中妈妈的话“I called you this morning. I fell off the ladder when I was trying to repair the roof, but you didn’t answer. Then I called Anna and told her what had happened. She said you were asleep because of the fever. And she just rushed to our house and took me to the hospital. But don’t worry, the doctor had checked me. There is nothing serious and I just need some rest.(我今天早上给你打电话。我在修理屋顶时从梯子上摔了下来，但你没有接。然后我打电话给Anna，告诉她发生了什么事。她说你发烧睡着了。她就赶到我们家，把我送到医院。但别担心，医生已经检查过我了。没有什么大碍，我只需要休息一下。)”可知，妈妈告诉Emily自己从梯子上摔下来了，Anna自己跑到她家帮妈妈送到医院检查，最终医生确定妈妈没事，由此可推测出，Emily会对妈妈摔下来感到担心，对Anna帮妈妈感到感激，并结合第七段中的“She started thinking Anna was selfish and decided not to talk to her any more.(她开始认为Anna很自私，决定不再和她说话。)”可知，Emily应该还会为自己的行为感到羞愧。故答案为：She might be worried about her mother, grateful to Anna and ashamed of herself.
【48题详解】
推理判断题。根据第七段中的“She started thinking Anna was selfish and decided not to talk to her any more.(她开始认为Anna很自私，决定不再和她说话。)”和第八段“In the evening, Anna finally returned. But Emily just refused to talk to her until her mother called to ask about her health.(晚上，Anna终于回来了。但Emily就是拒绝和她说话，直到她的母亲打电话询问她的健康状况。)”可知，Emily一开始认为Anna很自私，拒绝和Anna说话，由此可推测出，当Emily听到妈妈讲了Anna的善举后，她应该会和Anna说话，并真诚向她道歉。故答案为：She might talk to Anna and apologize to her sincerely.
【49题详解】
推理判断题。结合第二题和第三题的分析并通读全文可知，Anna是一个善良且热心肠的女孩，所以当Emily向她道歉时，她会原谅Emily，二人之间的关系变得比之前更亲密。故答案为：Anna might forgive Emily and the two might become even closer to each other.

On Wednesday morning-less than six hours before Hurricane(飓风) Ian made landfall-Kevin Ott and one of his sons went to Fort Myers Beach to check out conditions. Water started rushing in, two to three inches in a minute, forcing a retreat(撤退) to Ott’s home in San Carlos Park, about five miles east of Fort Myers Beach. On the way, he called his children’s maternal grandmother(外祖母) , Mary Ann Dineen, and asked if she wanted him to come and help her.
No, Dineen told him. She had “everything she needed to ride this thing out.” Things were fine at her place. She was having breakfast as usual. They hung up. A little while later, Ott decided to drive five miles south to his boat shop. After they got there, Dineen started calling. “Things are getting bad. I think you need to come down here,” she told him.
Ott got into his car with three of his kids and started driving to Dineen’s house. Before leaving, he fixed a boat to the back of his car. He took the boat toward Dineen’s place and got as close as he could. They’d have to go the final 1.5 miles by boat.
They met a man in a broken-down boat on the way. He had been trying to rescue(营救) his neighbors when his boat gave out, he told Ott. Together, they found his neighbors, one of whom was an old man “just about on his last breath.” They kept going and met many people in need of help. Ott was about to tell a couple that he couldn’t take them, but as he looked closer, he saw the mother was holding a baby wearing a life jacket. “I’m like, ‘We cannot leave these people,’” said Ott.
Ott finally got to Dineen’s and rescued her. They went back and reached Ott’s car. One of his sons dropped everyone off at a hotel.

Ashley Liberto and her dog Bentley have been inseparable since she got him eight years ago. So when Bentley had trouble walking a few months ago, Liberto was worried. “I took him to the pet hospital. He was diagnosed with cancer (被诊断患有癌症) in his right elbow and need to have the leg amputated (截肢),” Liberto says. Luckily, the surgery (外科手术) was successful.
After Bentley started moving again on three legs, Liberto decided to get a custom prosthetic leg (定制的假肢) for him. When she saw the cost of custom dog prosthetics, the teacher at Providence Day School in Charlotte, North Carolina, reached out to some of her former students for help in finding a more affordable choice.
Providence Day School has a class focused on computer-aided design (计算机辅助设计) and 3D printing. The teacher, Todd Johnson, says it’s an introductory level class that teaches students to make basic shapes using the technology. But when Liberto suggested trying to make a prosthetic leg for her dog, the students were excited to help and try something new.
“I thought it was a great chance for the students to see a real-world application of what they’re learning at school. I knew once the students started thinking about it seriously, they would come up with excellent designs,” Johnson says.
The class broke up into small groups to come up with designs for Bentley. Team leader Brandon Hollis and his group came up with the winning design. Hollis’ group spent weeks creating a prosthetic le g for Bentley. “It fit way better than I could have hoped for. It still needs some small changes, and then it should fit perfectly,” Hollis says.
The students hope to have a finished custom and comfortable prosthetic leg for Bentley in the next few weeks. Even though the class has ended, the young designers have continued the project on their own time.
8 What happened to Bentley
A. He was hit by a car. B. He had a terrible illness.
C. He got lost on his way home. D. He got separated from his owner.
9. What did Liberto do for Bentley
A. She provided him with some walking training. B. She got some students to play with him.
C. She tried to get a new leg for him. D. She found a new home for him.
10. What does Johnson expect of his students
A. They can put what they’re learning in the classroom into practice.
B. They can think carefully about what they want to learn.
C. They can pay some attention to animal protection.
D. They can develop new 3D printing technology.
11. What is Hollis and his group’s plan for the next few weeks
A. Sharing their design with others. B. Offering free design courses.
C. Making their design better. D. Introducing a new design.

In 2012, fewer than 7% of Americans had read poetry, which was down from 17% in 1992. In 2015, poetry was one of the least popular art activities for American grown-ups, with under 10% picking up a book and reading for pleasure. Just when it seemed to be on its deathbed, Instapoetry — easy-to-understand poems that are short enough to fit in your Instagram description — came to save the day.
Instapoetry appeared thanks to social media and Instapoems are usually no longer than a few lines and very direct. The influence Instapoetry has made in the poetry world is great. In 2017, poetry sales were twice what they were in 2016. In 2018, 28 million Americans were reading poems, which was the highest percentage (百分比) of poetry readership in nearly twenty years.
Many people have raved about the new type of poetry. The fact that it’s direct while also being touching is what interests many readers. Before the appearance of Instapoetry, many people thought of poetry as being long and difficult to understand. With Instapoetry, it is easy to understand what the author is trying to say. Readers don’t feel stupid or think the poetry needs to be studied carefully. It’s just simple beauty.
It’s not all sunshine and rainbows, though. Instapoetry has been criticized (批评) for having no meaning and for seeming like passing thoughts thrown on paper, packed up (包装) all pretty and given to the general public. Instapoetry has also been seen as a disgrace (耻辱) to writers who have worked tirelessly to improve their skills and achieve recognition.
In a world filled with a huge amount of entertainment (娱乐活动), people often choose things that are more showy, eye-catching and don’t take up too much time. Instapoetry fits the bill perfectly. While poets who choose to stick to traditional poetry should certainly keep writing, Instapoetry could be just what the poetry world needs to get it back on its feet.
