二、阅读理解(共4小题;每小题5分,满分20分)
Birds rely on their keen sense of hearing to detect prey(猎物)and identify other birds on the basis of their songs. In fact, birds have better hearing than humans, so they hear with much more detail. So how do birds hear
Birds and humans both have an inner car and a middle ear. However, birds differ from humans in that they lack an external ear structure. Where humans have an outer ear organ, birds have a funnel-shaped (漏斗状的)opening that functions as their outer car, located on each side of their head. These openings are usually positioned behind and slightly below a bird's eyes and are protected by soft feathers.
The position of a bird's head also plays a role in its hearing abilities. Scientists have determined that noises register (记录) at different frequencies on each side of the bird's head. Depending on the angle from which the noise originates, it registers with a certain frequency in the left eardrum (鼓膜) but with a different frequency in the right eardrum. This allows the bird to locate a sound's origin.
Let's take a look at owls. They are known for their extremely accurate hearing, which helps them locate prey at night. This hearing ability is partly due to the unbalanced arrangement of the ear openings, with one opening being lower than the other. Sounds register in these openings at slightly different times. Owls can use this time difference, which is only 30 millionths of a second, to determine whether the sounds are coming from their left or their right. Other birds of prey (猛禽) have small covers in front of their cars that help them determine whether sounds are coming from above them or below them. Some owls do appear to have ears on the top of their head, but those are actually feathers controlled by small muscles under the skin that do not affect their hearing at all.
11.According to paragraph 2, what is the major difference between birds' ears and humans' ears
A. Size. B. Position. C. Structure. D. Function.
12.What does the underlined word “This” in paragraph 3 probably refer to
A. Each side of the bird's head.
B. Sound quality around the bird.
C. The angle from which the noise comes.
D. The difference in frequencies between the eardrums.
13.What is the purpose of the last paragraph
A. To give examples. B. To present the main idea.
C. To draw a conclusion. D. To compare different opinions.
14.Which of the following can be the best title for the text
A. Different Senses of Birds B. Amazing Abilities of Birds
C. The Secret of Birds' Hearing D. The Origin of Birds' Hearing
三、七选五(共5小题;每小题4分,满分20分)

答案以及解析
一、填空题
1.答案:inspiring

2.答案:anxiety
解析:句意为:观众焦急地等着,看最后哪个队会贏。分析句子可知,设空处作介词with的宾语,应用名词。anxious的名词形式为anxiety,意为“焦急”,为不可数名词。故填anxiety。
3.答案:patient

9.答案:enables
解析:句意: 频繁接触英语能够使我们学好英语。Being exposed to English frequently为该句主语, 谓语动词要用第三人称单数形式。able是形容词, 其动词形式为enable, 故填enables。
10.答案:seeing

二、阅读理解
11.答案:C
解析:细节理解题。根据第二段中的However, birds differ from humans in that they lack an external ear structure.可知,,鸟类的耳朵和人类的耳朵不同的地方在于它们没有外耳结构。
12.答案:D
解析:词义猜测题。根据第三段中的 Scientists have determined that noises register ... but with a different frequency in the right eardrum.可知,鸟类能够定位声音的来源是因为声音在它们的左鼓膜和右鼓膜的频率不同。所以This指代上文提到的“鼓膜之间的频率差异”。故选D项。
13.答案:A
解析:推理判断题。根据最后一段中的Let's take a look at owls. They are known for their extremely accurate hearing ... Sounds register in these openings at slightly different times.以及Other birds of prey have small covers in front of their ears that help them determine whether sounds are coming from above them or below them.并结合第三段最后一句话可推知,本段主要以猫头鹰和其它猛禽为例,介绍了不同鸟类有不同的判断声音来源的能力。故选A项。
14.答案:C
解析:主旨大意题。通读全文可知,文章主要介绍了鸟类耳朵结构的特点以及鸟类是如何听到声音的,并以猫头鹰为例,解释了鸟类听力更好、更正确的原因。所以(鸟类听觉的奥秘)适合做本文的最佳标题。故选C项。
三、七选五
答案:GFABD
解析:①前文提到我们保护历史遗迹的原因之一是它们可以继续为下一代讲述我们的历史故事。空前提出设问:但如果下一代不理解这些地方的价值和意义该怎么办呢 后文提出本文主旨,有四件让孩子们参与历史古迹保护要做的事。G项(这就是为什么让孩子们参与历史文物保护很重要)承上启下,其中的historic preservation 和下文中的historic preservation相呼应。故选G项。
②前文提到鼓励孩子和街道上居住已久的邻居交谈的意义在于可以帮助孩子了解此地的历史,下文提到口述历史是极宝贵的资源和将我们与历史遗迹相联系的桥梁。由此可推知,设空处应承上启下;F项中的recording the conversation承接上文的Talk to the neighbours.,且与设空处后的Oral histories are an invaluable resource 相呼应。故选F项。
③前文讲到把旧地图与现在的道路和社区进行比较,后文提出问题:什么保持不变 结合选项可判断,A项(什么改变了 )符合语境,表示通过对比,探索改变的地方和没有改变的地方。故选A项。
④根据文章结构可知,设空处位于段首,是本段的主题句,应对该段内容进行概括。根据下文Ask your historical society or local preservation organisation if there are any projects that your kids can get involved in.可知,下文提到了让孩子参与项目,所以本段主要是讲通过参与项目的方式来了解历史。B项(参与社区项目)中的Take part in与下文中的get involved in是同义表述,而下文中的Help clean up and repair buildings or plant trees是对参与方式的具体举例说明。B项符合语境。
⑤前文Brainstorm the items that should be included in ahistorical record, like...提到想出你想要加入史学档案中的内容,并列举了一些例子。D项(然后,把你自己的史学档案整理出来)承接上文。故选D项。

二、阅读理解(共4小题;每小题5分,满分20分)
Thirteen-year-old Kaylee has a lot of friends—532, actually, if you count up her friends online. And she spends a lot of time with them.
But is it possible that Kaylee's online friendship could be making her lonely That's what some experts believe. Connecting online is a great way to stay in touch, they say. However, some experts worry that many kids are so busy connecting online that they might be missing out on true friendship.
Could this be true During your parents' childhoods, connecting with friends usually meant spending time with them in the flesh. Kids played Scrabble around a table, not Words With Friends on their phones. When friends missed each other, they picked up the telephone. Friends might even write letters to each other.
Today, most communication takes place online. A typical teen sends 2,000 texts a month and spends more than 44 hours per week in front of a screen. Much of his time is spent on social media platforms(平台) like Instagram and Facebook.
In fact, in many ways, online communication enables friendship to be stronger. "There's definitely a positive influence. Kids can stay in constant contact, which means they can share more of their feelings with each other," says Katie Davis, co-author of The App Generation.
Other experts, however, warn that too much online communication can get in the way of forming deep friendship. "If we are constantly checking out our virtual worlds, we will have little time for our real-world friendship," says Rosen, a professor at California State University. Rosen also worries that today's kids might mistake the "friends" on social media for true friends in life. However, in tough times, you don't need someone to like your pictures or share your blogs. You need someone who will keep your secrets and hold your hand. You would like to talk face to face.
11.What is the purpose of the first paragraph
A.To summarize the text. B.To tell something about true friends.
C.To bring up a discussion. D.To encourage online friendship.
12.What does the underlined part "in the flesh" mean in Paragraph 3
A.In any case. B.In person. C.In a hurry. D.In advance.
13.What is Katie's attitude towards online communication
A.Positive. B.Unconcerned. C.Confused. D.Worried.
14.What view does Rosen hold
A.It's wise to turn to friends online.
B.It's easier to develop friendship in reality.
C.Teenagers need focus on real-world friendship.
D.Social media help people stay closely connected.

二、阅读理解
11.答案:C
解析:推理判断题。第一段阐述了一种社会现象,作者用13岁的Kaylee有很多网上好友的事例来引入,其目的是提出一个话题,从而引出下文针对这个话题的讨论。故选C。
12.答案:B
解析:词义猜测题。根据画线部分前“During your parents’ childhoods...”和画线部分后“Kids played Scrabble around a table, not Words With Friends on their phones.”可推知,在你父母的童年时期,与朋友相处通常意味着亲自花时间与他们在一起。孩子们围着桌子玩拼字游戏,而不是在手机上玩Words With Friends。由此可以推断出,画线部分in the flesh意为“亲自”,故选B。A项“不管怎样,无论如何”、C项“匆忙”和D项“提前”均不符合题意。
13.答案:A
解析:推理判断题。根据题干关键词Katie定位第五段。由第五段中的“In fact, in many ways...with each other”可知,事实上,在很多方面,在线交流可以使朋友关系更加牢固,Katie认为,这绝对有积极的影响。孩子们可以经常保持联系,这意味着他们可以和彼此分享更多的感受。因此,Katie对在网上交流持乐观态度。positive积极乐观的;unconcerned不关心的;confused困惑的;worried担忧的。故选A。
14.答案:C
解析:细节理解题。根据题干关键词Rosen定位第六段。第六段的主题句为首句—“然而,其他专家警告说,过多的在线交流会妨碍建立深厚的友谊。”接着提到Rosen的观点,他认为“如果我们不断地查看虚拟世界,我们将很少有时间用于现实世界的友谊”,同时Rosen还担心,如今的孩子可能会把社交媒体上的“朋友”误认为是生活中真正的朋友。由此可知,Rosen认为青少年需要关注现实世界的友谊。故选C。
三、七选五
答案:GCBFD
解析:①根据本空后的But for many of us the process is difficult and requires courage.可知,但是对我们很多人来说,这个过程艰难而且还需要勇气。由连词But可知设空处要提到与之相反的一种情况,即结交新朋友对有些人来说很容易。
②根据本空后的You can always start the conversation.可知,不要等别人和你说话,你可以开始一段会话。
③根据本段中的Choosing friends with common interests is important to building friendships as these interests would always bring you and your friends together.可知,选择有共同兴趣的朋友对建立友谊很重要,因为这些兴趣会让你们走到一起,故B项符合语境。
④根据本空前的However, try not to press your new friend with calls, messages or visits as this would likely wear him or her out and finally you may lose your friend.可知,尽量不要给你的新朋友打电话、发信息或拜访来催促他/她,因为这可能会让他/她疲惫不堪,最终你可能会失去你的朋友,因此你需要给你的朋友时间来回应你的友好行为,故F项符合语境。
⑤根据本空后的Try not to change them from who they are to what you want them to be.可知,尽量不要把他们从原来的样子变成你想要的样子,由此可见,尽量不要对你的朋友吹毛求疵。
四、书面表达
答案:
