After leaving the earth last summer, Zhu Rong circled Mars for several months and landed on it in May. In recent years, our country has sent up the world’s first quantum satellite (量子卫星), and Chang’e-4 has made a soft landing on the moon. We have made great progress in space technology and will soon start building our own space station.

Yellow is usually the color of happy, joyful emotions. But according to a new study, not all people associate the color with good feelings.
To find out what factors might play a role, researchers tested a new hypothesis (假设): What if people’s physical surroundings affect their feelings about certain colors For example, if someone lived in cold and rainy Finland, would he feel differently about the color yellow from someone who lived near the Sahara Desert
The researchers looked at color-emotion data from an ongoing international survey of 6, 625 people in 55 countries. The survey asked participants to rate 12 colors on how closely they were associated with feelings including joy, pride, fear, and shame.
The researchers paid particular attention to the data for yellow, and analyzed how different factors—including hours of sunshine, hours of daylight, and the amount of rainfall—were associated with the emotions people reported for the color. The two best predictors of how people felt about yellow were the annual amount of rainfall, and how far they lived from the equator (赤道).
Overall, people were more likely to associate yellow with joy when they lived in rainier countries that lay farther from the equator, researchers reported in the Journal of Environmental Psychology. In Egypt, the likelihood (可能性) of yellow being associated with joy was just 5. 7%, whereas in chilly Finland it was 87. 7%. In the United States, with its mild climate and amber (琥珀色的) waves of grain, people’s yellow-joy association levels were between 60% and 70%.
The researchers also checked whether associations changed with the season—whether, for example, people in a certain country liked yellow more in the winter than they did in the summer. They found that opinions about the color remained fairly constant all year round—even when the weather changed, the data on yellow-joy associations were as good as gold.
8. What did the researchers do before the survey
A. They went to Finland. B. They made an assumption.
C. They studied certain colors. D. They analyzed some data.
9. Which of the following affects people’s feelings about yellow
A. The changeable weather. B. The length of daytime.
C. The geographical position. D. The amount of snowfall.
10. How did the researchers carry out the survey
A. By interviewing participants. B. By studying the data collected.
C. By traveling around the world. D. By looking at color combinations.
11. What can be the best title for the text
A. Yellow: Associated with Good Feelings B. Color: An Important Role in Joy
C. Yellow: Connected with Joy Conditionally D. Color: Associated with Emotions
【答案】8. B 9. C 10. B 11. C
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了黄色通常是代表快乐和愉悦情绪的颜色,但是一项新的研究表明,黄色与情感的关联会受到一些其他因素的干扰。
【8题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段的“To find out what factors might play a role, researchers tested a new hypothesis (假设): What if people’s physical surroundings affect their feelingsabout certain colors (为了找出哪些因素可能起作用,研究人员测试了一个新的假设:倘若人们的物理环境会影响他们对某些颜色的感觉呢 )”可知,研究人员在调查前做了假设。故选B。
【9题详解】
细节理解题。根据第四段的“The two best predictors of how people felt about yellow were the annual amount of rainfall, and how far they lived from the equator (赤道). (预测人们对黄色感觉的两个最佳指标是年降雨量和居住地离赤道的距离)”可知,地理位置影响人们对黄色的感觉。故选C。
【10题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段的“The researchers looked at color-emotion data from an ongoing international survey of 6,625 people in 55 countries. The survey asked participants to rate 12 colors on how closely they were associated with feelings including joy, pride, fear, and shame. (研究人员查看了来自55个国家6625人的一项正在进行的国际调查的颜色-情绪数据。调查要求参与者对12种颜色与快乐、骄傲、恐惧和羞耻等情感的联系程度进行评分)”推知,研究者通过研究数据进行调查的。故选B。
【11题详解】
主旨大意题。通读全文,尤其第一段“Yellow is usually the color of happy, joyful emotions. But according to a new study, not all people associate the color with good feelings. (黄色通常是高兴、快乐情绪的颜色。但根据一项新的研究,并不是所有人都把颜色与美好的感觉联系在一起)”可知,本文主要讲述把黄色和幸福、快乐联系在一起是有特定条件的,并非所有人都是这样。C. Yellow: Associated with Joy Conditionally.(黄色:和快乐联系在一起是有条件的)可以作为本文标题。故选C。
D
Everyone has “down days”. Maybe it’s because of the bad weather, or the disappointing grades on a difficult test, and some days teenagers just act uninterested in life or school. But these symptoms(症状) often pass quickly, as teens move on to new school subjects, or meet with friends to prevent themselves from thinking what troubles them at the moment. But if a teenager displays symptoms of sadness for more than two lasting weeks, it might point to something serious.
As teenagers develop, they push new boundaries(边界), complain about rules and look for more free rights from their parents. According to the online Health Guide on Adolescent Development, parents must be lasting figures in their teenagers’ life, providing safe boundaries for teens to grow, even if the teenagers act like these boundaries are unwanted.
Parents need to provide rules, while also remaining flexible(灵活的) and respectful of the growing teens’ need for freedom. For example, teenagers will often feel frustrated, embarrassed, and even angry that thought they want freedom, they still need to ask their parents for an agreement to go to a friend’s house, or need their mothers to take them to school.
The US Department of Education says that parents should respect and support their teen’s choices as long as those choices won’t have long-term harmful effects. For example, even if a parent doesn’t enjoy the music his or her teen listens to, it’s unlikely that the choice of music will prevent that teen from entering a good college, or lead to health problems. However, if that teen is drinking alcohol and driving, parents must get through strict punishments to teach that there are bad results for poor choices that come with increased freedom.
12. Why do teen’s feelings of bad days usually disappear quickly
A. Their teachers help them.
B. They take some medicine.
C. Their parents talk with them.
D. They change their attention.
13. What does the example in paragraph 3 show
A. Freedom must be given at anytime.
B. Teens are mad at being controlled.
C. Teens need both freedom and proper rules.
D. Rules must be absolutely strict for teens.
14. What should parents do about their teens’ choices
A. Support their helpful hobbies. B. Tell them which college to attend.
C. Cancel their after-school activities. D. Get them away from singing pop songs.
15. What is the best title for the text
A. How to Be With Growing Teens
B. Causes of Teens’ Sadness
C. Teens’ Worries About Strict Rules
D. The Importance of Making Friends With Teens
【答案】12. D 13. C 14. A 15. A
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要谈论了父母如何与成长中的青少年相处。
【12题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段中“But these symptoms(症状) often pass quickly, as teens move on to new school subjects, or meet with friends to prevent themselves from thinking what troubles them at the moment. (但这些症状通常很快就会消失,因为青少年开始学习新的课程,或与朋友见面,以防止自己思考当前的困扰。)”可知,青少年对不愉快的感觉会很快消失是因为他们改变了注意力。故选D项。
【13题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段中“Parents need to provide rules, while also remaining flexible(灵活的) and respectful of the growing teens’ need for freedom. For example, teenagers will often feel frustrated, embarrassed, and even angry that thought they want freedom, they still need to ask their parents for an agreement to go to a friend’s house, or need their mothers to take them to school. (父母需要制定规则,同时也要保持灵活性,尊重成长中的青少年对自由的需求。例如,青少年经常会感到沮丧,尴尬,甚至生气,尽管他们想要自由,他们仍然需要征求父母的同意去朋友家,或需要他们的母亲送他们去学校。)”可知,举例是为了说明青少年既需要自由又需要适当的规则。故选C项。
【14题详解】
细节理解题。根据第四段中“The US Department of Education says that parents should respect and support their teen’s choices as long as those choices won’t have long-term harmful effects. (美国教育部表示,父母应该尊重和支持青少年的选择,只要这些选择不会产生长期的有害影响。)”可知,对于青少年,父母应该支持他们有益的爱好。故选A项。
【15题详解】
主旨大意题。通读全文,尤其根据第二段中“According to the online Health Guide on Adolescent Development, parents must be lasting figures in their teenagers’ life, providing safe boundaries for teens to grow, even if the teenagers act like these boundaries are unwanted. (根据在线的《青少年发展健康指南》,父母必须在青少年的生活中扮演持久的角色,为青少年的成长提供安全的边界,即使青少年表现得好像这些边界是不需要的。)”可知,本文主要谈论了父母如何与成长中的青少年相处。选项A符合文章主题,故选A项。

47. 阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
My Best Teaching Experience
Tyler was only in my senior class for a semester. He had been suspended (使停学) many times in previous years because of his anger issues. When he entered my class, I thought the worst.
Tyler sat in the back row. Every time I talked to the class, I would ask students questions, calling them by name. Unfortunately, every time I called on Tyler, he would respond with a joke. If he got an answer wrong, he would become angry.
About a month into the year, I was still trying to connect with Tyler. I can usually get students involved in class discussions or at least have them sit quietly and attentively (专心地). By contrast, Tyler was often loud and sometimes rude.
He had been in so much trouble over the years. He expected his teachers to know about his past; about how many times he had been sent to the office or suspended from school. I had found that these sorts of referrals (移交) were not very effective and that students would return from the office behaving worse than before.
One day, Tyler was talking over me while I was teaching. I stopped my lesson and said, “Tyler, why don’t you join in our discussion instead of having one of your own ” With that, he got up from his chair, pushed it over and yelled something. I can’t remember what he said other than that he included some impolite words. I sent Tyler straight to the office, and he received a week’s suspension.
To this point, this was one of my worst teaching experiences. Tyler’s anger was almost too much for me. The week Tyler was suspended from school was a wonderful time, and we got a lot accomplished as a class. However, the suspension week would soon come to an end, and I was fearful of his return.
续写要求:
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。
On the day of Tyler’s return, I stood at the door awaiting him.
________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
A spark of surprise flashed across his face.
________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】
On the day of Tyler’s return, I stood at the door awaiting him. At last he came, walking with his hands in his pockets. That image immediately brought back memories of the boy throwing a tantrum in class the other day. Yet I managed to restrain my anger this time. These past few days, I had been building a wall between us with blame and punishment, so I thought to myself that maybe I should try another way. “I want to apologize for the quarrel that we had in the middle of class, and I’m really sorry if it hurt your feelings,” I said, finally breaking the ice.
A spark of surprise flashed across his face. The naughty boy froze there, staring at me with wide eyes. It was clear that he had never heard an apology from a teacher before. “It is I who should say sorry,” he murmured, his face burning with shame, “I should have learned to control myself.” With a smile, I stepped forward and patted him on his shoulder, signaling to him to go back to his seat. In the days that followed, Tyler didn’t misbehave in class anymore and took an active part in class discussions. I had never expected “understanding” could make such a huge difference — it turned one of my worst teaching experiences into perhaps the best one.

China has named the nation’s first Mars rover (火星车) Zhu Rong. For all of us, Zhu Rong is a well-suited name.
In an ancient Chinese story, Zhu Rong had the face of a man and the body of an animal. He rode on two dragons.
When he had a big fight with Gong Gong, the god of water, Zhu Rong won. But after the fight, the human world came into complete darkness. Then he brought fire from heaven to the world.
“Zhu Rong is regarded as the earliest god of fire in traditional Chinese culture,” a space official said. “The first Mars rover was named Zhu Rong. The name symbolizes light and hope for space exploration in our country, and means to guide humans to continue exploration.”
After leaving the earth last summer, Zhu Rong circled Mars for several months and landed on it in May. In recent years, our country has sent up the world’s first quantum satellite (量子卫星), and Chang’e-4 has made a soft landing on the moon. We have made great progress in space technology and will soon start building our own space station.
4. What Zhu Rong brought from heaven to the world was ________.
A. fire B. wars C. water D. animals
5. For China’s space exploration, the name Zhu Rong symbolizes ________.
A. a big fight B. complete darkness C. light and hope D. Chinese culture
6. The underlined word “it” in the last paragraph refers to “________”.
A. the earth B. Mars C. the moon D. the sun
7. According to the passage, we can infer that ________.
A. Zhu Rong is a bad person in an ancient Chinese story

D. the official doesn’t like the name Zhu Rong

Yellow is usually the color of happy, joyful emotions. But according to a new study, not all people associate the color with good feelings.
To find out what factors might play a role, researchers tested a new hypothesis (假设): What if people’s physical surroundings affect their feelings about certain colors For example, if someone lived in cold and rainy Finland, would he feel differently about the color yellow from someone who lived near the Sahara Desert
The researchers looked at color-emotion data from an ongoing international survey of 6, 625 people in 55 countries. The survey asked participants to rate 12 colors on how closely they were associated with feelings including joy, pride, fear, and shame.
The researchers paid particular attention to the data for yellow, and analyzed how different factors—including hours of sunshine, hours of daylight, and the amount of rainfall—were associated with the emotions people reported for the color. The two best predictors of how people felt about yellow were the annual amount of rainfall, and how far they lived from the equator (赤道).
Overall, people were more likely to associate yellow with joy when they lived in rainier countries that lay farther from the equator, researchers reported in the Journal of Environmental Psychology. In Egypt, the likelihood (可能性) of yellow being associated with joy was just 5. 7%, whereas in chilly Finland it was 87. 7%. In the United States, with its mild climate and amber (琥珀色的) waves of grain, people’s yellow-joy association levels were between 60% and 70%.
The researchers also checked whether associations changed with the season—whether, for example, people in a certain country liked yellow more in the winter than they did in the summer. They found that opinions about the color remained fairly constant all year round—even when the weather changed, the data on yellow-joy associations were as good as gold.
8. What did the researchers do before the survey
A. They went to Finland. B. They made an assumption.
C. They studied certain colors. D. They analyzed some data.
9. Which of the following affects people’s feelings about yellow
A. The changeable weather. B. The length of daytime.
C. The geographical position. D. The amount of snowfall.
10. How did the researchers carry out the survey
A. By interviewing participants. B. By studying the data collected.
C. By traveling around the world. D. By looking at color combinations.
11. What can be the best title for the text
A. Yellow: Associated with Good Feelings B. Color: An Important Role in Joy
C. Yellow: Connected with Joy Conditionally D. Color: Associated with Emotions
D
Everyone has “down days”. Maybe it’s because of the bad weather, or the disappointing grades on a difficult test, and some days teenagers just act uninterested in life or school. But these symptoms(症状) often pass quickly, as teens move on to new school subjects, or meet with friends to prevent themselves from thinking what troubles them at the moment. But if a teenager displays symptoms of sadness for more than two lasting weeks, it might point to something serious.
As teenagers develop, they push new boundaries(边界), complain about rules and look for more free rights from their parents. According to the online Health Guide on Adolescent Development, parents must be lasting figures in their teenagers’ life, providing safe boundaries for teens to grow, even if the teenagers act like these boundaries are unwanted.
Parents need to provide rules, while also remaining flexible(灵活的) and respectful of the growing teens’ need for freedom. For example, teenagers will often feel frustrated, embarrassed, and even angry that thought they want freedom, they still need to ask their parents for an agreement to go to a friend’s house, or need their mothers to take them to school.
The US Department of Education says that parents should respect and support their teen’s choices as long as those choices won’t have long-term harmful effects. For example, even if a parent doesn’t enjoy the music his or her teen listens to, it’s unlikely that the choice of music will prevent that teen from entering a good college, or lead to health problems. However, if that teen is drinking alcohol and driving, parents must get through strict punishments to teach that there are bad results for poor choices that come with increased freedom.
12. Why do teen’s feelings of bad days usually disappear quickly
A. Their teachers help them.
B. They take some medicine.
C Their parents talk with them.
D. They change their attention.
13. What does the example in paragraph 3 show
A. Freedom must be given at anytime.
B. Teens are mad at being controlled.
C. Teens need both freedom and proper rules.
D. Rules must be absolutely strict for teens.
14. What should parents do about their teens’ choices
A. Support their helpful hobbies. B. Tell them which college to attend.
C. Cancel their after-school activities. D. Get them away from singing pop songs.
15. What is the best title for the text
A. How to Be With Growing Teens
B. Causes of Teens’ Sadness
C. Teens’ Worries About Strict Rules
D. The Importance of Making Friends With Teens

47. 阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
My Best Teaching Experience
Tyler was only in my senior class for a semester. He had been suspended (使停学) many times in previous years because of his anger issues. When he entered my class, I thought the worst.
Tyler sat in the back row. Every time I talked to the class, I would ask students questions, calling them by name. Unfortunately, every time I called on Tyler, he would respond with a joke. If he got an answer wrong, he would become angry.
About a month into the year, I was still trying to connect with Tyler. I can usually get students involved in class discussions or at least have them sit quietly and attentively (专心地). By contrast, Tyler was often loud and sometimes rude.
He had been in so much trouble over the years. He expected his teachers to know about his past; about how many times he had been sent to the office or suspended from school. I had found that these sorts of referrals (移交) were not very effective and that students would return from the office behaving worse than before.
One day, Tyler was talking over me while I was teaching. I stopped my lesson and said, “Tyler, why don’t you join in our discussion instead of having one of your own ” With that, he got up from his chair, pushed it over and yelled something. I can’t remember what he said other than that he included some impolite words. I sent Tyler straight to the office, and he received a week’s suspension.
To this point, this was one of my worst teaching experiences. Tyler’s anger was almost too much for me. The week Tyler was suspended from school was a wonderful time, and we got a lot accomplished as a class. However, the suspension week would soon come to an end, and I was fearful of his return.
续写要求:
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。
On the day of Tyler’s return, I stood at the door awaiting him.
