"Anyone knows single parents who can't afford to get their child's hair done for school I will braid (编辫子) it for free!" Brittany Starks wrote on a Facebook post.
She decided to offer her hair braiding services after a family friend delivered backpacks full of school supplies, clothing and shoes for Cayden and Ceniyah in early August. "At the time, I didn't have anything for my kids to start school," said Starks, who is in between homes and staying with her mother. "It meant so much to me."
The unexpected gift made a big difference to Starks and her children, and it motivated her to pay it forward. Starks, who works two receptionist jobs, also braids hair part-time. "The hair-braiding process involves washing, blow-drying, and finally dividing the hair into small sections and braiding it. It also requires multiple supplies — including combs, brushes, hair jam and additional pieces of hair to weave in. It costs anywhere from $150 to $400 at a salon (美发厅), depending on the style," Stacks explained. "But it can last for months and is a huge timesaver in the mornings."
When she wrote the Facebook post, she assumed only a handful of people would reach out, but before she knew it, she had 35 appointments booked. Her Facebook inbox was suddenly full of messages from single parents, whose stories of hardship and financial challenges mirrored her own.
"There's a huge need for this. I could really relate to a lot of the women who reached out, and it made me realize that what I was doing was really important," said Stacks. "What got me the most was seeing the kids smile." Given that there was less than two weeks before the start of school, Starks knew she needed to enlist help.
4.What got Brittany Starks to offer her hair braiding service
A.A post on Facebook. B.Her friend's timely help.
C.Her mother's advice. D.A trip to her kids' school.
5.What does Starks say about hair braiding
A.It's a bit dear. B.It's time-wasting.
C.It's an easy job. D.It's a mother's duty.
6.How does Starks feel about the response to her Facebook post
A.Rather disturbing. B.Beyond expectation.
C.Far from satisfactory. D.Very disappointing.
7.What can we infer about Brittany Starks from the text
A.She is single with one child.
B.She is ambitious and aimless.
C.She is in need of helping hands.
D.She is free from financial worries.
【答案】4.B

【点评】本题考点涉及细节理解和推理判断两个题型的考查,是一篇故事类阅读,考生需要准确捕捉细节信息,并根据上下文进行逻辑推理,从而选出正确答案。
4.考查细节理解。根据第二段中的“She decided to offer her hair braiding services after a family friend delivered backpacks full of school supplies, clothing and shoes for Cayden and Ceniyah in early August. ‘At the time, I didn’t have anything for my kids to start school,’ said Starks”8月初,家里的一个朋友给凯登和塞尼亚送去了装满学习用品、衣服和鞋子的背包,之后她就决定提供编辫子服务。“当时,我没有任何东西供孩子上学,”斯塔克斯说;以及第三段中的“The unexpected gift made a big difference to Starks and her children, and it motivated her to pay it forward.”这个意想不到的礼物对斯塔克斯和她的孩子们产生了巨大的影响,也激励她把它传递下去。可知,朋友的及时帮助让Brittany Starks开始她的编辫子服务。故选B。
5.考查推理判断。根据第三段中的“The hair-braiding process involves washing, blow-drying, and finally dividing the hair into small sections and braiding it. It also requires multiple supplies — including combs, brushes, hair jam and additional pieces of hair to weave in. It costs anywhere from$150 to $400 at a salon (美发厅), depending on the style,”编发过程包括清洗、吹干,最后将头发分成小块编发。它还需要多种用品,包括梳子、刷子、发卡和额外的头发来编织。费用从150美元到400美元沙龙(美发厅,根据不同的风格)可推知,编辫子并不是简单的事情,还有一点小贵。故选A。
6.考查推理判断。根据倒数第二段中的“When she wrote the Facebook post, she assumed only a handful of people would reach out, but before she knew it, she had 35 appointments booked.”当她在Facebook上发帖时,她以为只有少数人会联系她,但在她知道之前,她已经被预约了35次;以及“Her Facebook inbox was suddenly full of messages from single parents”她的Facebook收件箱突然塞满了来自单亲父母的信息。可知,Starks认为Facebook上的回应出乎意料。故选B。
7.考查推理判断。根据最后一段中的“There’s a huge need for this.”这有巨大的需求;以及“Given that there was less than two weeks before the start of school, Starks knew she needed to enlist help.”考虑到离开学不到两周的时间,斯塔克斯知道她需要寻求帮助。可推知,Starks需要寻求帮助来进行自己的服务。故选C。
(2024高二上·临安开学考) 阅读下列短文,从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C、D)四个选项中选出最佳选项。
Solar farms offer one way to meet the world's decarbonization (脱碳) targets, but they could also be used to deal with another of the planet's big problems: loss of biodiversity. The approach is starting to take off. Residents of Barnsdale, for example, will soon play host to a new solar farm lined with grass field of wildflowers and native grasses, which Banks Group, the developer, says will promote pollinating (授粉) insects.
The idea comes from the combination of two long-term trends: declining numbers of pollinating insects and the growing amount of land distributed to solar farms. According to the Center for Biological Diversity in Arizona, more than 40 percent of insect pollinators globally are listed as "highly threatened"—an issue that could seriously threaten food security. Meanwhile, solar-energy competence has been increasing. Matthew O'Neal, a scientist at Iowa State University, would like to see more solar developers seize this opportunity.
The benefits of such projects don't stop at the insects. Research from Yale's Center for Business and the Environment indicates that pollinator-friendly solar farms can raise crop output on nearby farmland, increase the recharging of groundwater and reduce soil erosion ( 侵 蚀 ). In 2018, a US Department of Energy study found that if all existing and planned solar facilities near soybean and cranberry crops included pollinator home and increased output by just one percent, annual crop values could rise by US $1.75 million, US $4 million and US $233,000, respectively.
"Farmers could identify unprofitable areas, such as poor, highly erodible lands, as candidates for a pollinator-friendly solar farm. There's the potential to increase their net income with pollinator motivation projects," says O'Neal.
With enough forward thinking, these studies show, clean energy can provide new environmental opportunities. "We're at a turning point with energy production and we're seeing more opportunities to provide extra benefits that wouldn't have been considered with older methods of energy generation," says O'Neal. "You never heard of a coal mine planning pollinator conservation."
8.What can be an additional function of solar farms according to paragraph 1
A.Adding the amount of farmland.
B.Solving the decline of biodiversity.
C.Improving the solar-energy competence.
D.Increasing the amount of profitable areas.
9.What does O'Neal probably advise farmers to do
A.Reduce the size of their farms.
B.Live away from pollinator-friendly solar farms.
C.Grow their crops near areas rich in groundwater.
D.Make full use of soil erosion areas to make extra profits.
10.What is O'Neal's attitude towards the solar farm
A.Supportive. B.Conservative. C.Skeptical. D.Uncertain.
11.What is the best title for the text
A.Solar Power Is Starting to Take Off
B.Solar Energy Will Be in Urgent Need
C.Solar Farms Can Deal with the Loss of Biodiversity
D.Solar Farms Need to Expand the Amount of Farmland

9.考查细节理解。根据倒数第二段“‘Farmers could identify unprofitable areas, such as poor, highly erodible lands, as candidates for a pollinator-friendly solar farm. There’s the potential to increase their net income with pollinator motivation projects,‘ says O’Neal.”“农民可以确定无利可图的地区,比如贫穷、高度易侵蚀的土地,作为授粉友好型太阳能农场的候选地区。传粉者激励项目有可能增加他们的净收入,”O’Neal说。可知,O’Neal可能会建议农民充分利用水土流失区域获取额外利润。故选D。
10.考查推理判断。根据最后一段中的“‘We’re at a turning point with energy production and we’re seeing more opportunities to provide extra benefits that wouldn’t have been considered with older methods of energy generation,’ says O’Neal.(”“我们正处于能源生产的转折点,我们看到了更多的机会,可以提供旧的能源生产方法所没有考虑到的额外效益,”O’Neal说。可推知,O’Neal对太阳能农场是支持态度。故选A。
11.考查标题归纳。根据第一段中的“Solar farms offer one way to meet the world's decarbonization (脱碳) targets, but they could also be used to deal with another of the planet's big problems: loss of biodiversity.”太阳能发电场提供了一种实现世界脱碳目标的方法,但它们也可以用来解决地球上的另一个大问题:生物多样性的丧失;结合下文介绍可知,文章主要说明了太阳能发电场的附加功能可以应对生物多样性下降,并且这种方法已经开始流行起来。可推知“太阳能农场可以应对生物多样性的丧失”适合作文章标题。故选C。
(2024高二上·临安开学考) 阅读下列短文,从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C、D)四个选项中选出最佳选项。
LOVE it or hate it, there is no escape from Internet slang.
This is especially true among young people in some English-speaking countries such as Australia, the UK, and the US. These days, if they haven't caught up with the latest popular Internet slang, chances are that they often feel out of the loop on social media.
Take these posts by The Washington Post for example: "David Bowie dying is totes tradge" and "When Cookie hugged Jamal, it made me totes emosh". What on earth do these mean Well, "totes" is a short form of the adverb "totally". Likewise, "tradge" means "tragic" and "emosh" means "emotional".
It seems that for millennials (those born between the early 1980s and late 1990s), typing in this abbreviated form is not only time-saving but also hip. Many millennial slang words are formed by what linguists call the practice of totesing — the systematic abbreviation of words, according to a recent article in The Washington Post.
Some people think that millennial slang affects the English language negatively. However, Melbourne University linguist Rosey Billington doesn't agree.
"When you are able to use language in a creative way, you show you are linguistically knowledgeable because you know the language rules well enough to use words in a different way," Billington told .au. Her view is backed up by two linguists, Lauren Spradlin, and Taylor Jones, from the City University of New York and the University of Pennsylvania respectively. The two believe that totes-speak is a highly-organized system that can only be used by speakers who have mastered English pronunciation.
"The ability to break apart syllables and mix different sounds together is key. Totesing is about sounds, and it follows the sometimes-complicated sound system of English," Jones told The Washington Post. Totesing is not random. On the contrary, it has strict rules to follow. You need to be very fluent in the English language to be able to understand totes-speak.
12.The underlined phrase "out of the loop" in the second paragraph probably means____.
A.accepted easily B.bored and annoyed
C.comfortable and relaxed D.unaware of certain information
13.How does the author explain the phenomenon of totesing
A.By making comparisons.
B.By listing examples.
C.By giving descriptions.
D.By analyzing cause and effect.
14.What is Lauren Spradlin's attitude toward the practice of totesing
A.Worried. B.Cautious. C.Positive. D.Critical.
15.Which of the following might Taylor Jones agree with
A.Internet slang is mostly created by professional linguists.
B.Totesing is mainly about making words easier to pronounce.
C.Totesing requires speakers to master the language's rules very well.
D.Totesing should be promoted since it is cool, creative, and time-saving.
【答案】12.D

【知识点】推理判断题;词义猜测题;说明文;社会文化类
【解析】【分析】本文是一篇说明文,网络俚语很受欢迎,《华盛顿邮报》最近的一篇文章指出,许多千禧一代的俚语词汇都是由语言学家所说的“totesing”行为形成的,这是词汇的系统性缩写。有些人认为千禧一代俚语对英语有负面影响,然而一些语言学家却不这么认为。
【点评】本题考点涉及词义猜测和推理判断两个题型的考查,是一篇文化类阅读,首先要仔细阅读短文,掌握大意,然后结合具体的题目,再读短文,从中找出相关信息,就可以确定正确答案。
12.考查词义猜测。根据第一段“LOVE it or hate it, there is no escape from Internet slang.”爱也好,恨也罢,网络俚语无处不在;以及第二段中的“These days, if they haven’t caught up with the latest popular Internet slang”如今,如果他们还没有跟上最新流行的网络俚语。可知,网络俚语很流行,如果他们还没有跟上最新流行的网络俚语,他们很可能会觉得自己不知道社交媒体上的信息。由此推知,划线短语out of the loop的意思是“不知道某些信息”。故选D。
13.考查推理判断。根据第三段“Take these posts by The Washington Post for example: ‘David Bowie dying is totes tradge’ and ‘When Cookie hugged Jamal it made me totes emosh.’What on earth do these mean Well, ‘totes’ is a short form of the adverb ‘totally’. Likewise, ‘tradge’ means ‘tragic’ and ‘emosh’ means ‘emotional’.”以《华盛顿邮报》的这些帖子为例:“ david bowie 的死就是 totes tradge”和“ Cookie 拥抱 jamal 让我感到 totes emosh”这到底是什么意思?” “totes”是副词“total”的缩写形式。同样,“tradge”表示“悲剧”,“emosh”表示“情绪化”可知,作者是通过实例来解释totesing的现象的。故选B。
14.考查推理判断。根据倒数第二段中的“Her view is backed up by two linguists, Lauren Spradlin and Taylor Jones, from the City University of New York and the University of Pennsylvania respectively. The two believe that totes-speak is a highly-organized system that can only be used by speakers who have mastered English pronunciation.”她的观点得到了纽约城市大学和宾夕法尼亚大学两位语言学家Lauren Spradlin和Taylor Jones的支持。两人认为,totes speak是一个高度组织的系统,只有掌握了英语发音的人才能使用。可推知,Lauren Spradlin对于Totesing是积极的态度。故选C。
15.考查推理判断。根据最后一段中的“‘...Totesing is about sounds, and it follows the sometimes-complicated sound system of English,’ Jones told The Washington Post. Totesing is not random. On the contrary, it has strict rules to follow. You need to be very fluent in the English language to be able to understand totes-speak.”Jones告诉《华盛顿邮报》:“Totesing是关于声音的,它遵循的是很复杂的英语声音系统。Totesing不是随机的。相反,它有严格的规则要遵守。你需要非常流利的英语,才能理解他们的语言。可推知,Totesing要求使用者很好地掌握这门语言的规则。故选C。

Would you announce something bad to others by email If you did, you could upset them! Written communication channels don't allow you to soften difficult messages with non-verbal(非言语的)clues, such as body language. 18. So if you need to deliver bad news, do this in person.
You tend to avoid difficult conversations.
At some point, you will need to give negative feedback(反馈意见). It may seem wise to avoid such conversation. 19. For instance, you may find that a small problem you "let go" soon grows into a big one. Preparation is the key to handling difficult conversations. Learn to give clear, actionable feedback.
You are reacting instead of responding.
Have you ever shouted at a colleague in upset, or sent a brief and unfriendly reply to an email, without thinking your point through If so, you're likely to have reacted emotionally, instead of responding calmly. The kind of emotional reaction can damage your reputation. 20.

【点评】考查语法填空,本题考点涉及冠词,非谓语动词,宾语从句,名词,副词,状语从句,介词,时态语态以及固定搭配等多个知识点的考查,要求考生在理解细节信息的基础上,进一步根据上下文的逻辑关系,并结合相关语法知识,进行分析推理,从而写出正确的单词形式。
36.句意:这个5岁的小女孩跳下床,发现自己被浓烟包围。分析句子结构可知,girl为可数名词单数,其前无限定词,结合句意可知,此处指的是上文中的Cloe Woods,所以此处应为定冠词表示特指,且位于句首,首字母需大写。故填The。
37.句意:这个歌5岁的小女孩跳下床,发现自己被浓烟包围。此处作宾语补足语,surround与宾语herself之间为被动关系,所以应用过去分词,故填surrounded。
38.句意:回忆起她在路易斯安那州肯纳当地消防部门的学校实地考察中学到的东西,她去叫醒了她的盲人祖母,76岁的克劳迪娅·阿塞诺,她九个月前失去了视力。分析句子结构可知,此处为连接词引导的宾语从句作realizing的宾语,从句中缺少learn的宾语,且此处指的是事情,所以使用连接代词what。故填what。
39.句意:回忆起她在路易斯安那州肯纳当地消防部门的学校实地考察中学到的东西,她去叫醒了她的盲人祖母,76岁的克劳迪娅·阿塞诺,她九个月前失去了视力。month为可数名词单数,空前有nine修饰,所以此处使用名词复数形式。故填months。

41.句意:一名消防员称赞了Cloe的勇敢。分析句子结构可知,此处为名词作宾语,brave的名词为bravery意为“勇敢”且为不可数名词。故填bravery。
42.句意:“Cloe走在我的时代前面,”Cloe的妈妈 Shone Arceneaux自豪地说。此处为副词作状语修饰动词said,proud的副词为proudly意为“自豪地”符合句意。故填proudly。
43.句意:如果没有Cloe,谁知道会发生什么?此处为状语从句的引导词,结合句意可知,应为if引导的虚拟条件状语从句,表示的是与过去事实相反的情况。故填if。
44.句意:当然,我们非常感谢Cloe的学校为Cloe提供了学习消防安全的机会。owe…to…固定短语,“把……归因于……”,故填to。
45.句意:这家人现在住在一家旅馆里,房子正在修理。此处为从句的谓语动词,根据“The family is now at a hotel”可知,现在他们一家在旅馆居住,所以房子现在应是正在修理中,所以此处使用现在进行时态,且repair与主语the house之间为被动关系,所以应用现在进行时态的被动与他,且主语为第三人称单数。故填is being repaired。

47.(2024高二上·临安开学考) 第二节阅读下面材料,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。
When my husband Randy died in late fall, deciding what to do with his garden was way down on the list of necessary tasks. During the first few months, I cried with our daughters, planned a memorial, cried with my family, celebrated a quiet Thanksgiving, and panicked over not having bought Christmas presents.
As the calendar turned to a new year, the often rainy days and long nights deepened my sorrow. I found myself exhausted at the end of February, both physically and mentally. Then the daffodils bloomed (开花) in the garden.
Years before, Randy had planted dozens of these lemon-yellow flowers. To him, they served as a reminder of hope, a promise that light and warmth would soon replace cold and dark. Looking at those dauffodils, I thought about how Randy had considered our garden a living work of art, carefully choosing plants so we'd see new blooms every month.
Then I noticed all the weeds that had taken root and spread everywhere. The neglect (疏于打理 ) showed, for Randy's illness had lasted a couple of years, a time when he didn't have energy for yard work the way he had before.
Faced with the neglected garden, I felt overwhelmed in the beginning. My daughters suggested I hire a service to clean everything up. I didn't respond.
Every time I sat in the garden alone, the memories of the lively garden came flooding, like the numerous scenes in an unforgettable film. Many days Randy came home from work, changed into old clothes, and headed out the door to mow or prune (修剪). Orange dragonflies followed him around the yard as he worked. Honeybees buzzed among the flowers, birds sang beautiful songs, and gentle breezes carried the sweet smell of dirt. No matter how cold or wet it was, the fresh air and physical activity made him energized and refreshed. For Randy, the work was quiet and comforting, which was a relief, as well as a pleasure.
注意:1. 续写词数应为 150 左右;2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
The days grew warmer and lighter, and I started the work myself.
Weeks later, my daughters returned to visit me.
【答案】One possible version:
The days grew warmer and lighter, and I started the work myself. Following Randy's routine, I changed into old clothes and paced into the garden. Scanning around at the chaoes of tangled branches, disheveled stalks and wildly grown weeds, I took a deep breath and commenced to mow and prune from a small cranny. Gradually, honeybees and orange dragonflies emerged out of nowhere and hummed and buzzed all around the garden. I kept digging out the weeds as beady sweat oozed from my forehead. After what seemed like a century, I eventually cleared the east part of the garden. Nothing was better than waiting for the garden to be refreshed with those vivid scenes.
Weeks later, my daughters returned to visit me. No sooner had they arrived than I led them to the garden driven by irrepressible impulse and intense pride. "What a miracle!" they exclaimed in supreme astonishment and dashed over to embrace me tightly. Clasping my daughters, I beamed a radiant smile involuntarily and made a resolution to permanently keep my husband's garden gorgeous as before. To my enlightenment, it was not merely a legacy to memorize Randy, but more of a reminder of hope. Through the same laboring, I got the hint of Randy's fondness for the garden and that identical merriment and comfort would support me through whatever came in the future.
【知识点】文字式记叙文;开放性作文;读后续写
【解析】【分析】本篇书面表达是读后续写。通过阅读文章可知,讲述了丈夫去世后,作者身心俱疲,一直的伤心难过,无法从失去丈夫的痛苦当中走出来,作者多次回忆起丈夫在花园里劳作的场景,作者意识到要保留这份回忆,把花园照看好。段落续写:①由第一段首句内容“天气越来越暖和,越来越风和日丽,我自己也开始干活了。”可知,第一段可描写作者决定把花园照看好,在花园劳作。②由第二段首句内容“几周后,我的女儿们回来看我。”可知,第二段可描写女儿看到作者打理好花园的惊讶之情。写作时注意准确运用时态,上下文意思连贯,符合逻辑关系,尽量使用自己熟悉的单词句式,同时也要注意使用高级词汇和高级句型使文章显得更有档次。
【点评】本书面表达要点齐全,上下文连贯,使用一定数量的句式结构,让句子更加生动丰满,同时运用了许多高级词汇和固定短语,提高文章的档次,体现了对英语的熟练的驾驭能力。例如:I kept digging out the weeds as beady sweat oozed from my forehead. 运用了是时间状语从句;After what seemed like a century, I eventually cleared the east part of the garden. 运用了宾语从句; No sooner had they arrived than I led them to the garden driven by irrepressible impulse and intense pride.运用了时间状语从句,倒装句;Through the same laboring, I got the hint of Randy's fondness for the garden and that identical merriment and comfort would support me through whatever came in the future.运用了宾语从句。

"Anyone knows single parents who can't afford to get their child's hair done for school I will braid (编辫子) it for free!" Brittany Starks wrote on a Facebook post.
She decided to offer her hair braiding services after a family friend delivered backpacks full of school supplies, clothing and shoes for Cayden and Ceniyah in early August. "At the time, I didn't have anything for my kids to start school," said Starks, who is in between homes and staying with her mother. "It meant so much to me."
The unexpected gift made a big difference to Starks and her children, and it motivated her to pay it forward. Starks, who works two receptionist jobs, also braids hair part-time. "The hair-braiding process involves washing, blow-drying, and finally dividing the hair into small sections and braiding it. It also requires multiple supplies — including combs, brushes, hair jam and additional pieces of hair to weave in. It costs anywhere from $150 to $400 at a salon (美发厅), depending on the style," Stacks explained. "But it can last for months and is a huge timesaver in the mornings."
When she wrote the Facebook post, she assumed only a handful of people would reach out, but before she knew it, she had 35 appointments booked. Her Facebook inbox was suddenly full of messages from single parents, whose stories of hardship and financial challenges mirrored her own.
"There's a huge need for this. I could really relate to a lot of the women who reached out, and it made me realize that what I was doing was really important," said Stacks. "What got me the most was seeing the kids smile." Given that there was less than two weeks before the start of school, Starks knew she needed to enlist help.
4.What got Brittany Starks to offer her hair braiding service
A.A post on Facebook. B.Her friend's timely help.
C.Her mother's advice. D.A trip to her kids' school.
5.What does Starks say about hair braiding
A.It's a bit dear. B.It's time-wasting.
C.It's an easy job. D.It's a mother's duty.
6.How does Starks feel about the response to her Facebook post
A.Rather disturbing. B.Beyond expectation.
C.Far from satisfactory. D.Very disappointing.
7.What can we infer about Brittany Starks from the text
A.She is single with one child.
B.She is ambitious and aimless.
C.She is in need of helping hands.
D.She is free from financial worries.

Solar farms offer one way to meet the world's decarbonization (脱碳) targets, but they could also be used to deal with another of the planet's big problems: loss of biodiversity. The approach is starting to take off. Residents of Barnsdale, for example, will soon play host to a new solar farm lined with grass field of wildflowers and native grasses, which Banks Group, the developer, says will promote pollinating (授粉) insects.
The idea comes from the combination of two long-term trends: declining numbers of pollinating insects and the growing amount of land distributed to solar farms. According to the Center for Biological Diversity in Arizona, more than 40 percent of insect pollinators globally are listed as "highly threatened"—an issue that could seriously threaten food security. Meanwhile, solar-energy competence has been increasing. Matthew O'Neal, a scientist at Iowa State University, would like to see more solar developers seize this opportunity.
The benefits of such projects don't stop at the insects. Research from Yale's Center for Business and the Environment indicates that pollinator-friendly solar farms can raise crop output on nearby farmland, increase the recharging of groundwater and reduce soil erosion ( 侵 蚀 ). In 2018, a US Department of Energy study found that if all existing and planned solar facilities near soybean and cranberry crops included pollinator home and increased output by just one percent, annual crop values could rise by US $1.75 million, US $4 million and US $233,000, respectively.
"Farmers could identify unprofitable areas, such as poor, highly erodible lands, as candidates for a pollinator-friendly solar farm. There's the potential to increase their net income with pollinator motivation projects," says O'Neal.
With enough forward thinking, these studies show, clean energy can provide new environmental opportunities. "We're at a turning point with energy production and we're seeing more opportunities to provide extra benefits that wouldn't have been considered with older methods of energy generation," says O'Neal. "You never heard of a coal mine planning pollinator conservation."
8.What can be an additional function of solar farms according to paragraph 1
A.Adding the amount of farmland.
B.Solving the decline of biodiversity.
C.Improving the solar-energy competence.
D.Increasing the amount of profitable areas.
9.What does O'Neal probably advise farmers to do
A.Reduce the size of their farms.
B.Live away from pollinator-friendly solar farms.
C.Grow their crops near areas rich in groundwater.
D.Make full use of soil erosion areas to make extra profits.
10.What is O'Neal's attitude towards the solar farm
A.Supportive. B.Conservative. C.Skeptical. D.Uncertain.
11.What is the best title for the text
A.Solar Power Is Starting to Take Off
B.Solar Energy Will Be in Urgent Need
C.Solar Farms Can Deal with the Loss of Biodiversity
D.Solar Farms Need to Expand the Amount of Farmland

LOVE it or hate it, there is no escape from Internet slang.
This is especially true among young people in some English-speaking countries such as Australia, the UK, and the US. These days, if they haven't caught up with the latest popular Internet slang, chances are that they often feel out of the loop on social media.
Take these posts by The Washington Post for example: "David Bowie dying is totes tradge" and "When Cookie hugged Jamal, it made me totes emosh". What on earth do these mean Well, "totes" is a short form of the adverb "totally". Likewise, "tradge" means "tragic" and "emosh" means "emotional".
It seems that for millennials (those born between the early 1980s and late 1990s), typing in this abbreviated form is not only time-saving but also hip. Many millennial slang words are formed by what linguists call the practice of totesing — the systematic abbreviation of words, according to a recent article in The Washington Post.
Some people think that millennial slang affects the English language negatively. However, Melbourne University linguist Rosey Billington doesn't agree.
"When you are able to use language in a creative way, you show you are linguistically knowledgeable because you know the language rules well enough to use words in a different way," Billington told .au. Her view is backed up by two linguists, Lauren Spradlin, and Taylor Jones, from the City University of New York and the University of Pennsylvania respectively. The two believe that totes-speak is a highly-organized system that can only be used by speakers who have mastered English pronunciation.
"The ability to break apart syllables and mix different sounds together is key. Totesing is about sounds, and it follows the sometimes-complicated sound system of English," Jones told The Washington Post. Totesing is not random. On the contrary, it has strict rules to follow. You need to be very fluent in the English language to be able to understand totes-speak.
12.The underlined phrase "out of the loop" in the second paragraph probably means____.
A.accepted easily B.bored and annoyed
C.comfortable and relaxed D.unaware of certain information
13.How does the author explain the phenomenon of totesing
A.By making comparisons.
B.By listing examples.
C.By giving descriptions.
D.By analyzing cause and effect.
14.What is Lauren Spradlin's attitude toward the practice of totesing
A.Worried. B.Cautious. C.Positive. D.Critical.
15.Which of the following might Taylor Jones agree with
A.Internet slang is mostly created by professional linguists.
B.Totesing is mainly about making words easier to pronounce.
C.Totesing requires speakers to master the language's rules very well.
D.Totesing should be promoted since it is cool, creative, and time-saving.

Four Common Communication Mistakes
It can be embarrassing to make mistakes in communication. For example, if you send an email with a grammatical error, you can end up looking unprofessional. 16. For example, they can push away colleagues or customers. Now let's look at some common communication mistakes.
17.
Spelling, tone and grammatical mistakes can make you look careless. That's why it's essential to check all of your communications before you send them. Sometimes, it can be difficult to see errors in your own work. So consider asking a colleague to look over key documents before you distribute them.
You always deliver bad news by email.
Would you announce something bad to others by email If you did, you could upset them! Written communication channels don't allow you to soften difficult messages with non-verbal(非言语的)clues, such as body language. 18. So if you need to deliver bad news, do this in person.
You tend to avoid difficult conversations.
At some point, you will need to give negative feedback(反馈意见). It may seem wise to avoid such conversation. 19. For instance, you may find that a small problem you "let go" soon grows into a big one. Preparation is the key to handling difficult conversations. Learn to give clear, actionable feedback.
You are reacting instead of responding.
Have you ever shouted at a colleague in upset, or sent a brief and unfriendly reply to an email, without thinking your point through If so, you're likely to have reacted emotionally, instead of responding calmly. The kind of emotional reaction can damage your reputation. 20.
A. You fail to have your work edited. B. But this can cause further problems. C. Difficult conversations can cause upset. D. You assume others understand your messages. E. You may give others the impression of lacking self-control. F. And they don't allow you to immediately deal with strong emotions. G. Other communication mistakes can have more serious consequences.

When my husband Randy died in late fall, deciding what to do with his garden was way down on the list of necessary tasks. During the first few months, I cried with our daughters, planned a memorial, cried with my family, celebrated a quiet Thanksgiving, and panicked over not having bought Christmas presents.
As the calendar turned to a new year, the often rainy days and long nights deepened my sorrow. I found myself exhausted at the end of February, both physically and mentally. Then the daffodils bloomed (开花) in the garden.
Years before, Randy had planted dozens of these lemon-yellow flowers. To him, they served as a reminder of hope, a promise that light and warmth would soon replace cold and dark. Looking at those dauffodils, I thought about how Randy had considered our garden a living work of art, carefully choosing plants so we'd see new blooms every month.
Then I noticed all the weeds that had taken root and spread everywhere. The neglect (疏于打理 ) showed, for Randy's illness had lasted a couple of years, a time when he didn't have energy for yard work the way he had before.
Faced with the neglected garden, I felt overwhelmed in the beginning. My daughters suggested I hire a service to clean everything up. I didn't respond.
Every time I sat in the garden alone, the memories of the lively garden came flooding, like the numerous scenes in an unforgettable film. Many days Randy came home from work, changed into old clothes, and headed out the door to mow or prune (修剪). Orange dragonflies followed him around the yard as he worked. Honeybees buzzed among the flowers, birds sang beautiful songs, and gentle breezes carried the sweet smell of dirt. No matter how cold or wet it was, the fresh air and physical activity made him energized and refreshed. For Randy, the work was quiet and comforting, which was a relief, as well as a pleasure.
注意:1. 续写词数应为 150 左右;2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
The days grew warmer and lighter, and I started the work myself.
Weeks later, my daughters returned to visit me.

9.考查细节理解。根据倒数第二段“‘Farmers could identify unprofitable areas, such as poor, highly erodible lands, as candidates for a pollinator-friendly solar farm. There’s the potential to increase their net income with pollinator motivation projects,‘ says O’Neal.”“农民可以确定无利可图的地区,比如贫穷、高度易侵蚀的土地,作为授粉友好型太阳能农场的候选地区。传粉者激励项目有可能增加他们的净收入,”O’Neal说。可知,O’Neal可能会建议农民充分利用水土流失区域获取额外利润。故选D。

15.C
【知识点】推理判断题;词义猜测题;说明文;社会文化类
【解析】【分析】本文是一篇说明文,网络俚语很受欢迎,《华盛顿邮报》最近的一篇文章指出,许多千禧一代的俚语词汇都是由语言学家所说的“totesing”行为形成的,这是词汇的系统性缩写。有些人认为千禧一代俚语对英语有负面影响,然而一些语言学家却不这么认为。
【点评】本题考点涉及词义猜测和推理判断两个题型的考查,是一篇文化类阅读,首先要仔细阅读短文,掌握大意,然后结合具体的题目,再读短文,从中找出相关信息,就可以确定正确答案。
12.考查词义猜测。根据第一段“LOVE it or hate it, there is no escape from Internet slang.”爱也好,恨也罢,网络俚语无处不在;以及第二段中的“These days, if they haven’t caught up with the latest popular Internet slang”如今,如果他们还没有跟上最新流行的网络俚语。可知,网络俚语很流行,如果他们还没有跟上最新流行的网络俚语,他们很可能会觉得自己不知道社交媒体上的信息。由此推知,划线短语out of the loop的意思是“不知道某些信息”。故选D。
13.考查推理判断。根据第三段“Take these posts by The Washington Post for example: ‘David Bowie dying is totes tradge’ and ‘When Cookie hugged Jamal it made me totes emosh.’What on earth do these mean Well, ‘totes’ is a short form of the adverb ‘totally’. Likewise, ‘tradge’ means ‘tragic’ and ‘emosh’ means ‘emotional’.”以《华盛顿邮报》的这些帖子为例:“ david bowie 的死就是 totes tradge”和“ Cookie 拥抱 jamal 让我感到 totes emosh”这到底是什么意思?” “totes”是副词“total”的缩写形式。同样,“tradge”表示“悲剧”,“emosh”表示“情绪化”可知,作者是通过实例来解释totesing的现象的。故选B。
14.考查推理判断。根据倒数第二段中的“Her view is backed up by two linguists, Lauren Spradlin and Taylor Jones, from the City University of New York and the University of Pennsylvania respectively. The two believe that totes-speak is a highly-organized system that can only be used by speakers who have mastered English pronunciation.”她的观点得到了纽约城市大学和宾夕法尼亚大学两位语言学家Lauren Spradlin和Taylor Jones的支持。两人认为,totes speak是一个高度组织的系统,只有掌握了英语发音的人才能使用。可推知,Lauren Spradlin对于Totesing是积极的态度。故选C。
15.考查推理判断。根据最后一段中的“‘...Totesing is about sounds, and it follows the sometimes-complicated sound system of English,’ Jones told The Washington Post. Totesing is not random. On the contrary, it has strict rules to follow. You need to be very fluent in the English language to be able to understand totes-speak.”Jones告诉《华盛顿邮报》:“Totesing是关于声音的,它遵循的是很复杂的英语声音系统。Totesing不是随机的。相反,它有严格的规则要遵守。你需要非常流利的英语,才能理解他们的语言。可推知,Totesing要求使用者很好地掌握这门语言的规则。故选C。

You may give others the impression of lacking self-control.“你可能会给别人留下缺乏自制力的印象。”与上文存在解释关系。解释了为什么情绪化地反馈会有损个人名誉,符合语境,故选E。

36.句意:这个5岁的小女孩跳下床,发现自己被浓烟包围。分析句子结构可知,girl为可数名词单数,其前无限定词,结合句意可知,此处指的是上文中的Cloe Woods,所以此处应为定冠词表示特指,且位于句首,首字母需大写。故填The。
37.句意:这个歌5岁的小女孩跳下床,发现自己被浓烟包围。此处作宾语补足语,surround与宾语herself之间为被动关系,所以应用过去分词,故填surrounded。

43.句意:如果没有Cloe,谁知道会发生什么?此处为状语从句的引导词,结合句意可知,应为if引导的虚拟条件状语从句,表示的是与过去事实相反的情况。故填if。
44.句意:当然,我们非常感谢Cloe的学校为Cloe提供了学习消防安全的机会。owe…to…固定短语,“把……归因于……”,故填to。
45.句意:这家人现在住在一家旅馆里,房子正在修理。此处为从句的谓语动词,根据“The family is now at a hotel”可知,现在他们一家在旅馆居住,所以房子现在应是正在修理中,所以此处使用现在进行时态,且repair与主语the house之间为被动关系,所以应用现在进行时态的被动与他,且主语为第三人称单数。故填is being repaired。

The trip was amazing. We especially appreciate the popular destinations you recommended like the Tower Bridge. We also feel grateful for your generosity in inviting us to your home, where we tasted authentic British food. Thanks to you, we've learned a lot about the UK's culture and history.
To repay your favor, I'd like to invite you to visit China. Look forward to your arrival!
Yours,
Li Hua

47.【答案】One possible version:
The days grew warmer and lighter, and I started the work myself. Following Randy's routine, I changed into old clothes and paced into the garden. Scanning around at the chaoes of tangled branches, disheveled stalks and wildly grown weeds, I took a deep breath and commenced to mow and prune from a small cranny. Gradually, honeybees and orange dragonflies emerged out of nowhere and hummed and buzzed all around the garden. I kept digging out the weeds as beady sweat oozed from my forehead. After what seemed like a century, I eventually cleared the east part of the garden. Nothing was better than waiting for the garden to be refreshed with those vivid scenes.
Weeks later, my daughters returned to visit me. No sooner had they arrived than I led them to the garden driven by irrepressible impulse and intense pride. "What a miracle!" they exclaimed in supreme astonishment and dashed over to embrace me tightly. Clasping my daughters, I beamed a radiant smile involuntarily and made a resolution to permanently keep my husband's garden gorgeous as before. To my enlightenment, it was not merely a legacy to memorize Randy, but more of a reminder of hope. Through the same laboring, I got the hint of Randy's fondness for the garden and that identical merriment and comfort would support me through whatever came in the future.
