二、阅读理解(共4小题;每小题5分,满分20分)
In 1916, two girls of wealthy families, best friends from Auburn, N.Y.—Dorothy Woodruff and Rosamond Underwood—traveled to a settlement in the Rocky Mountains to teach in a one-room schoolhouse. The girls had gone to Smith College. They wore expensive clothes. So for them to move to Elkhead, Colo. to instruct the children whose shoes were held together with string was a surprise. Their stay in Elkhead is the subject of Nothing Daunted: The Unexpected Education of Two Society Girls in the West by Dorothy Wickenden, who is a magazine editor and Dorothy Woodruff's granddaughter.
Why did they go then Well, they wanted to do something useful. Soon, however, they realized what they had undertaken.
They moved in with a local family, the Harrisons, and, like them, had little privacy, rare baths, and a blanket of snow on their quilt when they woke up in the morning. Some mornings, Rosamond and Dorothy would arrive at the schoolhouse to find the children weeping from the cold. In spring, the snow was replaced by mud over ice.
In Wickenden's book, she expanded on the history of the West and also on feminism, which of course influenced the girls' decision to go to Elkhead. A hair-raising section concerns the building of the railroads, which entailed(牵涉) drilling through the Rockies, often in blinding snowstorms. The book ends with Rosamond and Dorothy's return to Auburn.
Wickenden is a very good storyteller. The sweep of the land and the stoicism(坚忍) of the people move her to some beautiful writing. Here is a picture of Dorothy Woodruff, on her horse, looking down from a hill top: "When the sun slipped behind the mountains, it shed a rosy glow all around them. Then a full moon rose. The snow was marked only by small animals: foxes, coyotes, mice, and varying hares, which turned white in the winter."
11.Why did Dorothy and Rosamond go to the Rocky Mountains
A. To teach in a school. B. To study American history.
C. To write a book. D. To do sightseeing.
12.What can we learn about the girls from paragraph 3
A. They enjoyed much respect. B. They had a room with a bathtub.
C. They lived with the local kids. D. They suffered severe hardships.
13.Which part of Wickenden's writing is hair-raising
A. The extreme climate of Auburn. B. The living conditions in Elkhead.
C. The railroad building in the Rockies. D. The natural beauty of the West.
14.What is the text
A. A news report. B. A book review.
C. A children's story. D. A diary entry.
三、七选五(共5小题;每小题4分,满分20分)

答案以及解析
一、语法填空
1.答案:saying
解析:句意为: 当我们接到说她入围的电话时, 我们以为这只是一个玩笑。设空处应用非谓语动词作定语, 修饰call, 且call与say之间为逻辑上的主动关系, 故填现在分词saying。
2.答案:coming
解析:句意为: 它们(植物、水果和鲜花)代表着大地的复苏和(人们)对新开端的美好祝愿。句中已有谓语动词represent, 设空处应填非谓语动词形式, 与the earth构成动名词的复合结构, 和best wishes并列作represent的宾语, 其逻辑主语为the earth, 应用主动形式, 故填coming。
3.答案:Learning
解析:考查动名词作主语。句意:学会批判性思考是今天的孩子们未来将需要的一项重要技能。分析句子结构可知,“_____(learn) to think critically is an important skill”是主句,“today's children will need for the future”是省略了关系词的定语从句。主句中is之前的部分作主语,设空处应用动名词或不定式;此处表示一般性的动作概念,应用动名词作主语,故填Learning。
4.答案:was talking
解析:考查动词的时态。句意:我第一次见到珍妮时,她正在英语角和一些学生交谈。根据The first time I saw Jenny 可知,此处谓语动词表示过去某个时间点正在发生的动作,所以应用过去进行时。故填was talking。
5.答案:Compared
解析:考查非谓语动词。句意:与苏依相比,我还有很长的路要走。compared with sb.“与某人相比”主语和比较是被动关系,用过去分词作状语。位于句首,首字母大写,故填Compared.
6.答案:of/towards
解析:考查介词。be tolerant of/towards.…意为“对……宽容”,为固定搭配。故填of 或 towards。
7.答案:Covering
解析:该句谓语部分为will be, 故此处应该用非谓语动词做状语;cover与句 子主语是逻辑上的主谓关系,所以用现在分词形式做伴随状语。
8.答案:held
解析:分析句子结构可知,本句的谓 语动词是decided,空处在句中是非谓语,且 与被修饰部分“the Belt and Road Forum for International Cooperation”之间是逻辑上的动 宾关系,故填held。
9.答案:changing
解析:空处与上文的pushing并列作状语,又因change 与句子主语“Cobb and others”为逻辑上的主谓关系,故填changing。
10.答案:surrounding
解析:句意为: 并且, 当他看到江面上升腾的薄雾和环绕着山顶的轻柔的云时, 他流下了眼泪。分析句子结构并结合语境可知, 设空处为后置定语, 修饰the soft clouds, 且与其之间为逻辑上的主动关系, 应用现在分词, 故填surrounding。
二、阅读理解
11.答案:A
解析:细节理解题。根据第一段"In 1916, two girls of wealthy families, best friends from Auburn, N.Y.—Dorothy Woodruff and Rosamond Underwood—traveled to a settlement in the Rocky Mountains to teach in a one-room schoolhouse. (1916年,来自纽约奥本市的两个富裕家庭的女孩—Dorothy Woodruff和Rosamond Underwood—来到落基山脉的一个定居点,在一间只有一个房间的学校教书)"可知,Dorothy和Rosamond去落基山脉是为了去学校里教书。故选A。
12.答案:D
解析:推理判断题。根据第三段"They moved in with a local family, the Harrisons, and like them, had little privacy, rare baths, and a blanket of snow on their quilt when they woke up in the morning.(他们和一个当地家庭,哈里森一家一起搬进去,和他们一样,几乎没有隐私,很少洗澡,早上醒来时被子上覆盖着一层雪)"以及"In spring, the snow was replaced by mud over ice.(在春天,雪被泥替代覆盖在冰上)"可推知,女孩们的生活条件非常艰苦,她们的生活饱受磨难。故选D。
13.答案:C
解析:细节理解题。根据倒数第二段"A hair-raising section concerns the building of the railroads, which entailed drilling through the Rockies, often in blinding snowstorms.(令人毛骨悚然的一段与铁路建设有关,这涉及在令人眩目的暴风雪中钻穿落基山脉)"可知,Wickenden的作品中涉及落基山脉的铁路建设这一部分是令人毛骨悚然的。故选C。
14.答案:B
解析:推理判断题。根据倒数第二段"The book ends with Rosamond and Dorothy's return to Auburn.(这本书以Rosamond和Dorothy回到奥本结束)"以及最后一段"Wickenden is a very good storyteller. The sweep of the land and the stoicism of the people move her to some beautiful writing.(Wickenden是个很好的讲故事的人。大地的辽阔和人们的坚忍使她创作出了一些美丽的作品)"可知,本文简要介绍了Wickenden的书籍内容,并对其进行了评价,所以文本是一篇书评。故选B。
三、七选五
答案:①-⑤BFAGD
解析:①上文"From sports to clubs to outside organizations, there are many activities to take part in outside the classroom.(从运动到俱乐部再到校外组织,有很多课外活动可以参加。)"提到了有很多的课外活动可以参加;下文"Fortunately, it becomes quite easy once you figure out what you enjoy doing in general.(幸运的是,一旦你知道你喜欢做什么,这就变得很容易了。)"提到了一旦知道自己喜欢做什么,就变得很容易。由此可知,设空处所填句意与下文存在转折关系。B项"This can make choosing one a little difficult.(这要让你选择一个可能会有点困难。)"中的this与上文对应,而difficult则与下文的easy对应。故选B。
②段首主旨句"Think about your interests and know your advantages.(想想你的兴趣,了解你的优势。)"提到了要想想自己的兴趣,了解自己的优势;上文"Before you start considering specific(具体的)activities, take a step back. Think about what excites you and find your passions(热情).(在你开始考虑具体的活动之前,先退一步。想想什么能让你兴奋,找到你的激情所在。)"提到了在考虑具体活动前,先想想什么能让自己兴奋,找到自己的激情所在;下文"Now that you have a better idea of what you like to do in general, decide on those that you are good at.(既然你对自己喜欢做什么有了更好的了解,那就选择你擅长的吧。)"提到了对自己喜欢做的事有更好的了解后,就开始选择自己擅长的。由此可推知,设空处应是与思考自己感兴趣的活动有关。F项"Use those to decide on activities that will keep you interested for a long time.(利用这些信息来决定哪些活动能让你长期感兴趣。)"与本段主旨相符,选项中的those与上文的"Think about what excites you and find your passions.(想想什么能让你兴奋,找到你的激情所在。)"对应。故选F。
③设空处位于句首,为本段主旨句。下文"In addition to your interests and advantages, know what you would like to improve about yourself.(除了你的兴趣和优势之外,你也要知道你想要提升自己的哪些方面。)"提到了除自己的兴趣和优势之外,也要知道自己想要提升的东西。由此可知,本段主要与"提升自我"相关。A项"Think about skills you want to develop.(想想你想要培养的技能。)"与本段主旨相符。故选A。
④段首句"Find out what activities are available(可用的)and look into each one.(找出哪些活动是可用的,并一一研究。)"提到了要找出可用的活动,并一一研究;下文"If the website seems incomplete, talk with your teacher or parents.(如果网站看起来不完整,和你的老师或父母谈谈。)"提到了如果网站看起来不完整,可以和老师或父母谈谈。由此可知,设空处是在建议去网站看看。G项"Search your school's website for a complete list of all the activities it provides.(在你学校的网站上搜索它提供的所有活动的完整列表。)"中的school's website与下文的the website对应。故选G。
⑤设空处位于段末,上文"Once you have a list of activities that match your interests, do a little research.(一旦你有了一个符合你兴趣的活动清单,做一些调查。)"提到了一旦有了自己的兴趣活动清单,可以做一些调查。由此可推知,设空处可能在谈这一建议的好处。D项"In this way, you will have a better idea of what to expect.(这样,你就能更好地知道接下来该期待些什么。)"中的in this way与上文do a little research对应。故选D。

答案以及解析
一、语法填空
1.答案:Seen
解析:考查过去分词作状语。句意:从月球上看,我们的地球像一个蓝色的球。分析句子结构可知,动词see与其逻辑主语our earth之间构成被动关系,所以用过去分词作状语。故填Seen。
2.答案:Learning
解析:考查动词-ing 形式作状语。句意:听到你被大学录取的消息,我感到特别激动。分析句子结构可知,设空处应用非谓语动词形式,动词learn与逻辑主语I之间构成主动关系,所以用动词-ing形式作状语。故填Learning。
3.答案:to blame
解析:考查固定用法。句意:我们知道人类活动带来的碳排放对全球变暖负有部分责任。be to blame for…是固定用法,意为“对……负有责任”。故填to blame。
4.答案:reality
解析:考查名词。句意:随着时间的推移,飞行汽车迟早将成为现实。分析句子可知,设空处作表语,空前有不定冠词a,所以应该填名词。故填reality。
5.答案:frozen
解析:考查形容词。句意:打扰一下,您能告诉我在哪里能找到一些冷冻水饺吗 dumplings是名词,应用形容词修饰。故填frozen,表示“冷冻的”。
6.答案:to get
解析:考查动词不定式。句意:听说这个老板很难相处,我很惊讶。此处为固定句型“主语+be+adj.+动词不定式”,所以此处应用动词不定式。
7.答案:improving
解析:考查动词-ing形式作宾语。固定搭配apply oneself to (doing) sth.意为“致力于(做)某事”。故填improving。句意:在过去的几个星期里,他们一直致力于提高英语口语。
8.答案:hidden
解析:考查过去分词作宾语补足语。句意:在进行艺术批评时,你必须假设艺术家在其作品背后有隐藏着的信息。分析句子结构可知,此处为have的复合结构,动词hide与宾语message之间构成被动关系,所以用过去分词作宾语补足语。故填hidden。
9.答案:Having waited
解析:考查动词-ing形式作状语。句意:在公园等了她两个小时之后,我不得不离开了。分析句子结构可知,逗号前为状语,wait与其逻辑主语I之间构成主动关系,且发生在主句的谓语动词表示的动作之前,所以应用动词-ing形式的完成式作状语。故填Having waited。
10.答案:approaching
解析:考查动词-ing形式作宾语补足语。句意:突然,我看见一个高大的身影正向警察靠近。根据语境可知,动词see后接动词-ing形式作宾语补足语,表示“看到某人正在做某事”。故填approaching。
二、阅读理解
11.答案:B
解析:细节理解题。根据第一段第二句可知,从最早时期开始,诗歌和歌曲就是人们的娱乐方式。故选B。
12.答案:D

13.答案:A
解析:细节理解题。根据第三段中的“Each poem in The Book of Songs was set to music and could be sung. Folksongs make up the most part of the book."可知,《诗经》中的每一首诗都配上了音乐,可以演唱,民歌占了这本书的大部分。故选A。
14.答案:C
解析:推理判断题。根据最后一段最后两句可知,中国古代诗歌的译作可以在书本中找到,也可以在网上找到,现在这些优美的诗歌吸引了世界各地的读者。由此可推测,中国古代诗歌在国外也受到了人们的喜爱。故选C。
三、七选五
答案:①-⑤BGDCE
解析:①段落大意题。根据下文Before you start the writing process, you should make sure that you read as many great poems as possible.(在你开始写作之前,你应该确保你读了尽可能多的好诗)可知,这一段是建议在开始写诗前,要多读好诗。由此可知,选项B"Read great poems(读好诗)"和下文—致,符合语境。故选B项。
