二、阅读理解（共4小题；每小题5分，满分20分）
Teens and younger children are reading a lot less for fun, according to a Common Sense Media report published Monday.
While the decline over the past decade is steep for teen readers, some data in the report shows that reading remains a big part of many children's lives, and indicates how parents might help encourage more reading.
According to the report's key findings, "the proportion(比例) who say they 'hardly ever' read for fun has gone from 8 percent of 13-year-olds and 9 percent of 17-year-olds in 1984 to 22 percent and 27 percent respectively today."
The report data shows that pleasure reading levels for younger children, aged 2—8, remain largely the same. But the amount of time spent in reading each session has declined, from closer to an hour or more to closer to a half hour per session.
When it comes to technology and reading, the report does little to counsel(建议) parents looking for data about the effects of e-readers and tablets on reading. It does point out that many parents still limit electronic reading, mainly due to concerns about increased screen time.
The most hopeful data shared in the report shows clear evidence of parents serving as examples and important guides for their kids when it comes to reading. Data shows that kids and teens who do read frequently, compared to infrequent readers, have more books in the home, more books purchased for them, parents who read more often, and parents who set aside time for them to read.
As the end of school approaches, and school vacation reading lists loom(逼近) ahead, parents might take this chance to step in and make their own summer reading list and plan a family trip to a library or bookstore.
11.What is the Common Sense Media report probably about
A.Children's reading habits. B.Quality of children's books.
C.Children's after-class activities. D.Parent-child relationships.
12.Where can you find the data that best supports "children are reading a lot less for fun"
A.In paragraph 2. B.In paragraph 3.
C.In paragraph 4. D.In paragraph 5.
13.Why do many parents limit electronic reading
A.E-books are of poor quality. B.It could be a waste of time.
C.It may harm children's health. D.E-readers are expensive.
14.How should parents encourage their children to read more
A.Act as role models for them. B.Ask them to write book reports.
C.Set up reading groups for them. D.Talk with their reading class teachers.
三、七选五（共5小题；每小题4分，满分20分）
During my first year teaching middle school students, I found myself in a bit of a dilemma. When the bell rang, I knew that my class should be orderly and on task. ①_________ I had an activity on the board for the students to complete. However, no one did it. Instead, they just kept chatting and laughing.
I desperately needed some classroom management strategies(策略) that actually worked. ②_________ She gave me the following idea: When the bell rings, write down the names of everyone who is talking on the board, and tell them if they speak out of turn again they will receive a discipline essay.
I tried it. Wow, it worked! ③_________ Firstly, watch carefully for the very first person that talks and be sure to give him a warning in the form of his name on the board. Meanwhile, say something like, "Taylor, this is just a warning to you. You are not in trouble at this point, but you will be if you continue talking."
④_______ There would still be days when the bell rang and half the class were still talking, but instead of allowing my stress level to rise, I would calmly start writing names. It normally only took three or four names for the class to notice. Then they would quickly quiet down.
If you teach high school, or are just not crazy about this method, look for ways to adjust it. For example, you could give a student a warning by putting a Post-it on their desk. ⑤_______ But if you've had trouble keeping order in your classroom, I do highly recommend that you try it.
A. But it simply wasn't.
B. Now let me make an introduction.
C. Eventually, I went to an old teacher.
D. Therefore, I referred to some relevant books.
E. And I felt like a failure in my own classroom.
F. Writing names down may not be a good fit for everyone.
G. This method made the biggest difference at the start of class.

答案以及解析
一、语法填空
1.答案：when
解析：句意为:我们正在沿着河岸走,忽然听到有人哭喊着求救。本句考查固定句式sb be doing... when...,意为“某人正在做……,这时突然……”。
2.答案：expansion
解析：句意为:随着对科学更加感兴趣,他往往会进行更多的探索。设空处作介词with的宾语,且被定冠词the和of引起的介词短语修饰,应用名词,此处特指“他对科学的兴趣的增加”。故填expansion。
3.答案： floating
解析：句意为:在离海岸大约一英里(约1,609米)远的海里发现了一个漂浮着的大型物体。此处为“find+宾语+宾补”结构的被动形式,因此设空处作主语补足语,float和其逻辑主语Something large之间为主动关系,此处表示主动和正在进行的含义,应用现在分词作主补。故填floating。
4.答案： about
解析：句意为:通常情况下,学生会更热衷于可以参与和互动的课程。be enthusiastic about为固定搭配,意为“对……感兴趣;热衷于……”。故填about。
5.答案： painful
解析：句意为:只有完成所有痛苦的训练,你才能获得金牌。设空处后面为名词,因此应用形容词,作定语。
6.答案：treating
解析：句意为:坦白说,我是不会容忍你以那样粗鲁的方式对待老人的。have sb doing sth用于否定句意为“容忍某人做某事”。故填treating。
7.答案：(should) be set
解析：句意为:这位年轻人一直说他没有偷钱,并坚决要求马上释放他。insist作“坚称”讲时,其后的宾语从句用陈述语气;作“坚决要求”讲时,其后的宾语从句用虚拟语气,即从句谓语用“(should+)动词原形”。结合句意可知,此处insisted表示“坚决要求”,从句谓语用虚拟语气;且he和set之间为被动关系,应用被动语态,故填(should) be set。
8.答案： initially
解析：句意为:气象预报员表示,这场暴风雪可能没有他们最初预报的那么严重。设空处作状语,修饰动词 predicted,应用副词。故填initially。
9.答案： checked
解析：句意为:在你分享文章之前,你可以随时在Daily Themes网站上让审查者检查你的文章。分析句子结构可知,此处为“get+宾语+宾语补足语”结构,check和writing之间为逻辑上的被动关系,故用过去分词作宾补。故填checked。
10.答案： what
解析：句意为:这就是我父亲教我的—永远要直面困难,并抱有最大的希望。设空处引导表语从句,在从句中作宾语,意为“……的东西”,故填what。
二、阅读理解

13.答案：C
解析：推理判断题。根据倒数第三段最后一句中的many parents still limit electronic reading, mainly due to concerns about increased screen time可知, 许多家长仍然限制电子阅读, 主要是担心孩子看电子屏幕的时间越来越多, 即担心电子阅读会伤害孩子们的健康。故选C项。

三、七选五
答案：ACBGF
解析：①空前讲到"上课铃一响，我知道我的班级应该井然有序，并在完成任务中"，空后讲到"我在黑板上写了个活动要学生们完成。然而，没有人这么做。相反，他们只是继续聊天和大笑"，故A项"但是，事实并非如此"与空前构成转折关系，与空后构成例证关系，符合语境。
②根据空后的"She gave me the following idea"可知，作者向其他人请教课堂管理策略，故C项"最终，我去找了一个老教师"承上启下。
③根据空后内容可知，空后是对上一段提到的课堂管理策略的介绍，故选B。
④根据空后的"It normally only took three or four names for the class to notice. Then they would quickly quiet down"可知，本段说明了上文提及的课堂管理策略的效果，故G项"这个办法在课堂开始时起到了最大的作用"符合语境。
⑤空前讲到"如果你是高中老师，或者只是不热衷于这种方法，那就找一些方法来调整它"，空后讲到"但如果你在维持课堂秩序方面有困难，我强烈建议你试试"故F项"写下名字这种方法可能并不适合所有的人"符合语境。

二、阅读理解（共4小题；每小题5分，满分20分）
Climate change leads to a threat to the world’s sandy beaches, and as many as half of them could disappear by 2100, a new study has found. Even by 2050 some coastlines could be unrecognizable from what we see today, with 10% to 12% facing severe erosion (侵蚀).
Using updated sea level rise predictions, the researchers analyzed how beaches around the world would be in a future with higher seas and more damaging storms. They also considered natural processes like wave erosion, as well as human factors-like coastal building developments, all of which can affect a beach’s health. The study found that sea level rise is expected to outweigh these other factors, and that the more heat-trapping gases humans put into the atmosphere, the worse the influences on the world’s beaches are likely to be.
It’s hard to overstate just how important the world’s beaches are. They cover more than one third of the world’s coastlines, and protect coastal areas from storms. Beaches are also important economic engines, supporting relaxation, tourism and other activities. And in some areas, the beach is more than a vacation destination. In places like Australia, life near the coast revolves around the beach for much of the year.
Some of the world’s most popular beaches are already taking action. Places like Miami Beach are trucking in thousands of tons of sand to patch up (修复) badly eroded shorelines, while others have built sea walls and breakwaters in an attempt to hold precious sand in place. But the financial and environmental costs of these projects are huge, and scientists say rising seas and more powerful storms, supercharged by a warmer climate, will make this a losing battle.
However, the researchers did find that humans have some control over what happens to the world’s beaches. If the world’s governments are able to stick to modest cuts to heat-trapping gas pollution, the researchers found that 22%of projected beach losses by 2050 could be prevented, a number that grows to 40%by 2100 if greenhouse gases are limited.
11.Which is the biggest contributor to severe beach erosion
A. Damaging storms. B. Wave erosion.
C. Coastal building. D. Sea level rise.
12.What can we infer from Paragraph 3
A. It is hard to protect coastal beaches.
B. One third of storms take place near beaches.
C. Beaches are of great significance to our lives.
D. Most Australians live on beach tourism.
13.What does the underlined word “this” refer to in Paragraph 4
A. Popularizing the beaches. B. Holding sand in place.
C. Reducing the project costs. D. Stopping global warming.
14.What is the best title for the text
A. Half beaches could disappear by 2100.
B. Climate change is doing harm to our lives.
C. The beach is more than a vacation destination.
D. Governments are taking action to fight wave erosion.
三、七选五（共5小题；每小题4分，满分20分）
It's a joyful and stressful time of year in the United States for students and their families as they make decisions about where to attend college. Families often turn to rankings systems to help make a decision. ①_____
When I talk to families as a scholar of higher education, they're often surprised that teaching excellence is not counted in rankings. ②_____
Emerging research suggests that courses in lower-ranked universities, on average, scored higher on teaching than courses in higher-ranked universities. ③_____ The absence of teaching excellence from the rankings is surprising given the link between high-quality teaching and student success. Quality teaching is one of the most important predictors of a wide range of college outcomes.
Rankings, however, are only one reason why a low value is placed on teaching in higher education. Administrators often don't view teaching excellence as a way to increase enrolment (注册) or funding. ④_____ Research shows that the more time instructors spend on teaching, the lower their salary. What is the result Many instructors continue to teach using traditional lectures, which lead to lower success rates.
⑤_____ Nevertheless, not much will change until schools with high-quality teaching are rewarded with more resources, higher rankings and increased enrolments. In the long term, universities, organizations that rank schools, and others should work to make teaching a valued, core part of the mission.
What should students and their families do They should give strong consideration to universities where high-quality teaching is valued, even though the schools may be ranked lower.
A. Higher education has achieved its true potential.
B. Therefore, it's not highly valued in hiring or promotion.
C. Quality teaching has been an important reputation-building factor.
D. However, the rankings ignore a critical factor: the quality of teaching.
E. Efforts to improve teaching at the university level have recently emerged.
F. They're even more surprised at how teaching is undervalued by universities.
G. In fact, universities often shift emphasis from teaching to other ranking factors.

Thank you for listening!
答案以及解析
一、语法填空
1.答案：as
解析：句意为:过去我们无法像今天一样可以轻松地接触到数字资源。设空处考查固定结构(not) as... as...,表示平级比较。
2.答案：at
解析：句意为:出乎意料的是,他的新艺术作品在艺术展览会上被估价为200万美元。be assessed at...为固定表达,表示“估值为……”,此处at表示“以……;在……(水平、价格等)”。故填at。
3.答案：where
解析：句意为:教师们正在努力营造一种学生可以自由表达自己思想的氛围。设空处引导定语从句,先行词为an atmosphere,结合语境可知,此处表示“在……的氛围中”,关系词在从句中作地点状语,指代抽象地点名词atmosphere。故填where。
4.答案：abandoned
解析：句意为:这个村庄废弃了很长一段时间,它在过去是个热闹的地方。分析句子结构可知,设空处作定语,abandon在句中应用非谓语形式,与其逻辑主语The village之间为被动关系,设空处应用过去分词。故填abandoned。
5.答案：(should) be taken
解析：句意为:专家强烈要求立即采取行动来保护海洋不受污染。urge意为“敦促;强烈要求”,其后的宾语从句要用虚拟语气,即从句谓语用“(should+)动词原形”;action与take之间为被动关系,应用被动语态。故填(should) be taken。
6.答案：circumstances
解析：句意为:在教育中,任何情况下都不能忽视学生的全面发展。under no circumstances为固定表达,意为“无论如何都不”,置于句首时,句子需要部分倒装。故填circumstances。
7.答案：for
解析：句意为:按计划,你一到达,我就安排我的秘书去接你。arrange for sb to do sth为固定搭配,意为“安排某人去做某事”,注意arrange在此为不及物动词。
8.答案：exposure
解析：句意为:对于小学生而言,他们玩电脑游戏的时间应被大幅缩短。设空处应用名词,作定语,修饰名词time,用来说明后一名词的种类或类别。
9.答案： as/though
解析：句意为:尽管这个男孩年龄小,但他有着扎实的荒野生存技能知识。as/though引导让步状语从句时,需要将从句中的表语或状语提前至句首,从句进行倒装。
10.答案： approval
解析：句意为:他的想法获得了同事们的赞同,这让他感到高兴。设空处作won的宾语,根据设空处前的定冠词the和空后的介词of可知,设空处应用名词,表示“赞成,同意”,此时approval为不可数名词,故填approval。
二、阅读理解
11.答案：D
解析：细节理解题。根据第二段第三句 The study found that sea level rise is expected to outweigh these other factors, and that the more heat-trapping gases humans put into the atmosphere, the worse the influences on the world's beaches are likely to be. 得知有很多因素会造成沙滩被侵蚀，其中海平面上升是导致沙滩严重侵蚀的最大因素。故正确答案为D。
12.答案：C
解析：推理判断题。根据第三段第一二句 It's hard to overstate just how important the world's beaches are. They cover more than one third of the world's coastlines, and protect coastal areas from storms. Beaches are also important economic engines, supporting relaxation, tourism and other activities. 得知很难夸大世界上的海滩有多重要。它们覆盖了世界三分之一以上的海岸线，并保护着海岸线，保护沿海地区免受风暴的侵袭。海滩也是重要的经济引擎，支持休闲、旅游和其他活动。第三段强调了沙滩对人类生活非常重要。故正确答案为C。
13.答案：B
解析：词义猜测题。根据第四段第二句 while others have built sea walls and breakwaters in an attempt to hold precious sand in place. But the financial and environmental costs of these projects are huge, and scientists say rising seas and more powerful storms, supercharged by a warmer climate, will make this a losing battle. 得知而另一些人则建造了海堤和防波堤，试图把珍贵的沙子固定住。但是这些项目的金融和环境成本巨大，科学家说上升的海洋和更强大的风暴，因气候变暖而增压，将会使得固定沙子是一场失败的举措。得知 this 指代的是 Hold sand in place。故正确答案为B。
14.答案：A
解析：主旨大意题。根据第一段第一句 Climate change leads to a threat to the world’s sandy beaches, and as many as half of them could disappear by 2100, a new study has found. 得知文章首句就点明主题。一项新研究显示：气候变化对世界上的沙滩造成了威胁，到2100年将有一半的沙滩消失。所以最佳标题是“到2100年，一半的沙滩将会消失”。故正确答案为A。
三、七选五
答案：DFGBE
解析：①根据空前内容Families often turn to rankings systems to help make a decision.和下文反复强调的high-quality teaching可知,设空处的内容应提及排名和教学质量,因此D项(然而,这种排名忽略了一个关键因素:教学质量)衔接上下文,符合语境。故选D项。
②根据空前的When I talk to families as a scholar of higher education, they're often surprised that teaching excellence is not counted in rankings.可知,优秀的教学水平并没有被纳入大学排名的考虑因素,这让人们觉得很惊讶。本段只有两句话,设空处应承接上文。F项(更让他们惊讶的是,大学低估了教学的价值)延续上文内容,指的都是家长对大学排名忽略教学质量的反应。其中more surprised和上文的 surprised相呼应。故选F项。
③根据空前的 Emerging research suggests that courses in lower-ranked universities, on average, scored higher on teaching than courses in higher-ranked universities.以及空后的The absence of teaching excellence from the rankings is surprising ---可知,本段介绍的都是大学排名中没有考虑到教学。G项(事实上,大学经常把重点从教学转移到其他排名因素上)与上下文内容相一致。故选G项。
④根据空前的Administrators often don't view teaching excellence as a way to increase enrolment or funding.可知,上文分析了学校管理者认为高质量教学不能增加生源和投资,该空应该讲其后果。B项(因此,高质量教学在招聘或晋升中不受重视)承接上文。故选B项。
⑤根据设空处后的Nevertheless可知,设空处的内容和下文存在转折关系,再结合选项可知,E项(大学努力提高教学水平这一现象最近已经出现)提及了大学在教学方面的转变,是正向的;后文说变动不会太大,直到一些特定条件出现才可以,与之形成转折。故选E项。
四、书面表达
