Pina did the only thing she could.She opened the window and dropped the children,one by one,into the arms of the firefighters' about 15-20 feet below.

With the Forbidden City and Jingshan Park to its east,Zhongnanhai to its south,Beihai Park,also known as Northern Sea Park,is one of the oldest,largest and best-preserved ancient imperial gardens(皇家花园) in China located in the center of Beijing.
Beihai Park is said to be built according to a traditional Chinese legend.The story is that once upon a time there were three magic mountains called"Penglai","Yingzhou"and "Fangzhang".Gods in those mountains had a kind of medicine which would help humans gain immortality(永生).Consequently,many emperors constantly sought those mountains.For example,Emperor Qin Shihuang had sent people to look for the magic mountains but they failed.Emperor Wudi,the fifth emperor of the Western Han Dynasty did similar things.
It was believed that different mountain-water combinations in ancient Chinese architecture led to totally different effects.So from then on,almost every emperor during the succeeding dynasties would build a royal garden with one-pool-with-three-hill layou t near his palace.Beihai Park was surely built after this traditional style:the water of Beihai with Zhongnanhai is the Taiye Pool;the Jade Flowery Islet,the island of the Circular City and the Xishantai Island represent the three magic mountains.
Actually,Beihai Park was initially built in the Liao Dynasty(916—1125)and was repaired and rebuilt in the following dynasties including Jin,Yuan,Ming and Qing.The large-scale rebuilding in the reign of Emperor Qianlong of the Qing Dynasty(1644—1911)generally established the present scale and pattern.In 1925,it was first opened to the public,attracting hundreds of thousands of visitors from all over the world every year.
It is enjoyable to walk around the various scenic areas in Beihai Park.There are many places to visit,including the Bai Ta,Five-Dragon Pavilions,Nine-Dragon Wall,Yong'an Temple and so on.There is also a class y restaurant called Fangshan Restaurant where the Empress Cixi once dined.
8.Where is Beihai Park? ______
A. Near the ocean.
B. In the south of Zhongnanhai.
C. To the west side of Jingshan Park.
D. In the uptown area of Beijing City.
9.What is the similarity between Emperor Qin Shihuang and Emperor Wudi of Han according to the text? ______
A. They loved to listen to stories.
B. They both pursued immortality.
C. They were mountain-climbing lovers.
D. They were the first emperor of their dynasties.
10.How old is Beihai Park? ______
A. Less than 100 years old. B. About 500 years old.
C. About 1,000 years old. D. Nearly 2,000 years old.
11.What is the text mainly about? ______
A. A famous park. B. Historical palaces.
C. An unforgettable legend. D. Ancient architectural styles.
D
A new smartwatch app alerts users who are deaf or hard of hearing of nearby sounds,such as knocks at the door or fire alarms.
"The main motivation for the app came from my own experience,and conversations that my colleagues and I have had with deaf and hard of hearing people over several years," says Dhruv Jain,who presented the system,called SoundWatch.
Jain,who is hard of hearing,uses SoundWatch at home to avoid sleeping through a smoke alarm. "On a nature walk,it'll tell me that there's birds singing,or there might be a waterfall nearby," he says. "Those sounds make me feel more present and connected to the world. "
Sound awareness apps for smartphones exist.But Jain prefers the immediacy of sound notifications on his wrist,rather than in his pocket-and surveys of people who are deaf or hard of hearing show he's not alone.
The SoundWatch app pairs an Android smartwatch and phone.The watch records surrounding noises and sends that data to the phone for processing.When the phone finds a sound of interest,the smartwatch vibrates (振动)and displays a sign.
Jain,a computer scientist at the University of Washington in Seattle,and his colleagues designed the app to identify 20 noises.In experiments,SoundWatch correctly identified those 20 sounds 81.2 percent of the time.When set to listen only for urgent noises-a fire alarm,door knock or alarm clock-the app was 97.6 percent accurate.Eight deaf and hard of hearing people who used SoundWatch around a university campus gave the app broadly favorable reviews,but noted that the app misclassified some sounds in noisy outdoor settings.
Disability is highly personal,and Jain hopes his team can find ways for people to personalize this app for their own specific needs.For example,people can be told about the sounds they care about-a husband's or wife's voice versus general speech,the back door opening versus the front door opening,and more.
12.What inspired Jain to invent the SoundWatch? ______
A. The desire to hear music.
B. His deaf colleagues.
C. Sleeping through a smoke alarm.
D. His own experience of being hard of hearing.
13.What is the fifth paragraph mainly about? ______
A. How the Sound Watch works.
B. Why Sound Watch is invented.
C. The influence of the noises.
D. The link of smartwatches and phones.
14.Which sound type can the app identify the best? ______
A. Waterfall. B. Birds' songs.
C. A fire alarm. D. The sound of forest.
15.In which part of a newspaper is the text most likely to be found? ______
A. Education. B. Advertisement. C. Technology. D. Entertainment.
二、阅读七选五:本大题共5小题,共12.5分。
Have you ever watched a silent television show and tried to predict how the characters were feeling according to their body language?The ability to understand people's body language is a skill that's almost born inside of us. (1) ______ .This skill develops as we grow older,which is called non-verbal communication.
Body language helps us communicate what we're feeling without saying much at all.Think about a time when you were very angry.Did you clench (咬紧) your teeth?Did your palms get sweaty when you were anxious?In most cultures,these cues (线索) that reveal emotional states are quite common.But gestures have specific meanings across different cultures.Take touch for example. (2) ______ .In India,however,the ideal way to greet someone is by touching their feet,not by shaking their hand.
In some places,gestures meaning hellos and goodbyes and touches indicating friendship and love are all the same.But the problem arises because some gestures have vastly different meanings in different cultures.For example,the "OK" symbol is used as a superb symbol in India,but in Turkey,this symbol is considered offensive (冒犯性的). (3) ______ .
So,what should we do?Should we not use gestures at all?Of course not.(4) ______ .No matter how much we try to stop ourselves,we will end up communicating non-verbally in some way or another.
( 5) ______ ,you'd better make a quick Google search or turn to a comprehensive book to better interact with the locals,and avoid offending them during your stay!
A.It was a very kind and thoughtful gesture.
B.So,the next time you decide to travel to another country.
C.When you flash the "OK" sign there,you're asking for a fight.
D.They also use a system of sounds and body language to communicate.
E.Even the smallest children can figure out when their mothers are mad.

G.A general way of saying "Hello" in western culture is a brief handshake.

【解析】(1)推理判断题。根据上文The ability to understand people's body language is a skill that's almost born inside of us.(理解他人肢体语言的能力几乎是我们天生的技能。)以及下文This skill develops as we grow older,which is called non-verbal communication.(这种技能随着我们年龄的增长而发展,这被称为非语言交流。)可知,此处应该举例说明理解他人肢体语言的能力几乎是我们天生的技能。故E项"即使最小的孩子也能知道妈妈什么时候生气了。"承上启下,符合语境。故选E。
(2)推理判断题。根据上文But gestures have specific meanings across different cultures.Take touch for example.(但是手势在不同的文化中有特定的含义。以触摸为例。)以及下文In India,however,the ideal way to greet someone is by touching their feet,not by shaking their hand.(然而,在印度,最理想的问候方式是碰对方的脚,而不是握手。)可知,此处应该举一个手势语的例子来说明东西方文化的不同。根据下文中的however和not by shaking their hand可知,此处举"握手"的例子。故G项"在西方文化中,说"你好"的一般方式是简短的握手。"承上启下,符合语境。故选G。
(3)联系上文题。根据上文For example,the "OK" symbol is used as a superb symbol in India,but in Turkey,this symbol is considered offensive (冒犯性的).(例如,"OK"符号在印度被用作极好的符号,但在土耳其,这个符号被认为是冒犯性的。)"可知,在土耳其,"OK"符号被认为是冒犯性的,故C项"当你在那里闪烁"OK"标志时,你是在找茬打架。"承接上文,符合语境。故选C。
(4)推理判断题。根据上文So,what should we do?Should we not use gestures at all?Of course not.(那么,我们该怎么办?我们不应该使用手势吗?当然不是。)以及下文No matter how much we try to stop ourselves,we will end up communicating non-verbally in some way or another.(无论我们多么试图阻止自己,我们最终还是会以某种方式进行非语言交流。)可知,我们应该使用手势语,因为手势是伴随着交流语言而来的东西。故F项"手势是伴随着交流语言而来的东西。"承上启下,符合语境。故选F。
(5)联系下文题。根据下文you'd better make a quick Google search or turn to a comprehensive book to better interact with the locals,and avoid offending them during your stay! (你最好在谷歌上快速搜索,或者求助于一本综合性的书,以便更好地与当地人互动,避免在逗留期间冒犯他们!)可知,上文所说的情况是"到另外一个国家旅行"。故B项"所以,下次你决定去另一个国家旅行时。"引起下文,符合语境。故选B。

近几年高考试题中的完形填空有新的变化,试题所涉及的知识面不断拓宽,综合难度不断提高。做完形填空首先要通读全文,了解大意。一篇完形填空的文章有许多空格,所以,必须先通读一至两遍,才能大概了解文章的内容。千万不要看一句,做一句。其次要逐句分析,前后一致。选择答案时,要考虑整个句子的内容,包括搭配、时态、语法等。答案全填完后,再通读一遍文章,检查是否通顺流畅,用词得当,意思正确。
36.【答案】【小题1】hearing
【小题2】was done
【小题3】A
【小题4】why
【小题5】preference
【小题6】areas
【小题7】recorded
【小题8】by
【小题9】greater
【小题10】natural
【解析】(1)考查动名词。句意:一项研究表明,听各种各样的鸟叫声可能有助于增加我们的幸福感。作从句的主语,陈述一般情况,应用动名词形式。故填hearing。
(2)考查动词时态语态和主谓一致。句意:这项研究是由加州州立理工大学的研究人员完成的,研究团队研究了鸟叫声对人们在美国科罗拉多州的一个公园散步的影响。分析句子可知,空处为并列句的谓语动词,主语study与谓语do构成被动关系,且描述过去发生的事情,应用一般过去时的被动语态,主语是单数。故填was done。
(3)考查冠词。句意:生物学研究生丹妮尔 费拉罗领导了这项研究。设空处后为名词单数,此处表示泛指,应用不定冠词,biology是以辅音音素开头的,应用a,句首单词首字母大写。故填A。
(4)考查定语从句。句意:我们对鸟鸣情有独钟,这可能是进化上的原因。先行词为reason,定语从句中缺少原因状语,故用关系副词why引导从句。故填why。
(5)考查可数名词的单数。句意:我们对鸟鸣情有独钟,这可能是进化上的原因。作宾语,应用名词preference,前面有不定冠词a,所以用名词单数。故填preference。
(6)考查可数名词的复数。句意:费拉罗说,在世界各地的许多地区,鸟鸣也可以预示春天和好天气的到来。area为可数名词,由many修饰,应用复数形式。故填areas。
(7)考查过去分词。句意:费拉罗和她的团队在一天中的特定时间在公园的徒步小径上播放不同鸟类的录音歌曲。动词record和它所修饰的词songs之间是被动关系,应用过去分词recorded作定语。故填recorded。
(8)考查介词。句意:然后,他们与经过的徒步旅行者交谈。此处为动词短语pass by表示"经过",by为介词。故填by。
(9)考查形容词比较级。句意:听到不同鸟类叫声的徒步旅行者比那些只听到自然鸟类叫声的人有更强的幸福感。根据后文的than,可知应用形容词比较级作定语修饰名词。故填greater。
(10)考查形容词。句意:听到不同鸟类叫声的徒步旅行者比那些只听到自然鸟类叫声的人有更强的幸福感。修饰名词birds,应用形容词natural作定语。故填natural。
这是一篇说明文。一项研究表明,听各种各样的鸟叫声可能有助于增加我们的幸福感。

(1)品读原文,确定文章线索
每篇文章都有各自独特的写作思路,通过精读文章,找到该篇文章的写作线索。如是以时间为线索还是以空间为线索等这样有利于考生"顺藤摸瓜(结尾)"。
(2)仔细审题,明确续写要求
一般短文后面的"注意"都有对此次短文续写的具体要求,如词数限制使用几处标有下划线的关键词语。续写段落的首句提示,这样考生可以做到"心中有数"。
(3)回扣原文,揣摩续写思路
根据文章后面的要求,再次快速阅读短文,抓住文章的思路结合段首的提示语最终确定续写段落的思路。同时结合文章画线词语提示,确定续写段落的内容。
(4)拟写草稿,修改错词病句
在确定了思路和内容之后,最关键的就是结合提示语或者文中画线的关键词拟写草稿。拟写时,注意句子结构的多样性,语言的丰富性,并通过句与句之间连接词的正确使用,使上下文连贯。
