第I卷（选择题）
一、阅读理解：共15题 每题2分 共30分
When I wake up on summer mornings, I know I am going to my favorite place to volunteer and make a difference in someone’s life just by being with him or her — a summer school for autistic (孤独症的) children.
By helping the kids read or do math homework, I am not only teaching important skills but also helping them feel like any other kid. There are many wrong ideas about autism(孤独症).The kids I work with can think and feel. They need help only in certain areas. Of course, each kid is special. For example, some kids like to draw, and others like to sing.
At school, the kids learn through about 20 activities. These activities can help them learn skills they will need later in life.
The very first day I volunteered, a boy came up to me, put his hand on my shoulder, and said "Hello". From then on, I knew I could make a difference. Another boy loved to have me read books that can help him learn to read. Sometimes he could be encouraged to read a few words or sentences. Finally, one day during the reading practice, he read nearly 220 words himself!
The summer school is also a place for fun. Last summer, bagpipe(风笛) players came to perform. Most of us had our hands over our ears because they were so loud. When they asked for a volunteer from the audience, one girl raised her hand as high as she could, appeared on stage, and even tried the bagpipes in front of everyone.
Through these experiences, I realize that the challenges these kids face do not stop them from doing many amazing things. I’m teaching them, but they are teaching me more.
1．According to Paragraph 2, many people think autistic kids .
A.can’t read or do math homework B.don’t have important skills
C.don’t play with other kids D.can’t think or feel
2．The author believed he could make a difference when .
A.a boy greeted him actively B.a boy let him read books
C.a boy could read by himself D.a girl tried the bagpipes
3．What does the author mainly talk about in the passage?
A.His teaching experience in a summer holiday.
B.How to make a difference in other people’s lives.
C.His experience as a volunteer in a special summer school.
D.Autistic children’s hard life.
4．Which one is NOT true?
A.We must keep away from the autistic children because they have serious disease.
B.The writer enjoyed his job as a volunteer.
C.The autistic children can teach me so much.
D.The autistic children also have many hobbies.

Modern inventions have speeded up people’s lives amazingly. Motor cars cover a hundred miles in little more than an hour, aircraft cross the world a day, while computers operate at lightning speed. Indeed, this love of speed seems never-ending. Every year Motor cars are produced which go even faster and each new computer boasts(自夸) of saving precious seconds in handling tasks.
All of these save time, but at a price. When we lose or gain half a day in speeding across the world in an airplane, our bodies tell us so. We get the uncomfortable feeling known as jet lag; our bodies feel that they have been left behind in another time zone. Again, spending too long on computers results in painful wrists and fingers. Mobile phones also have the danger according to some scientists; too much use may transmit harmful radiation into our brains, a consequence we do not like to think about. However, what do we do with the time we have saved? Certainly not to relax. We are so accustomed to constant activity that we find it difficult to sit and do nothing or even just one thing at a time. Perhaps the days are long gone when we might listen quietly to a story on the radio, letting imaginations take us into another world.
There was a time when some people’s lives were devoted simply to the cultivation of the land or the care of cattle. No multi-tasking there; their lives went on at a much gentler pace, and in a familiar pattern. There is much that we might envy about a way of life like this. Yet before we do so, we must think of the hard tasks our ancestors faced; they farmed with bare hands, often lived close to hunger, and had to fashion tools from wood and stone. Modern machinery has freed people from that primitive existence.
9．The new products become more and more time-saving because .
A.our love of speed seems never-ending B.time is limited
C.the prices are increasingly high D.the manufacturers boast a lot
10．What is the author’s attitude towards the modern technology?
A.Critical. B.Objective. C.Optimistic. D.Negative.
11．What does the passage mainly discuss?
A.The present and past times. B.Machinery and human beings.
C.Imaginations and inventions. D.Modern technology and its influence.
【答案】
9．A
10．B
11．D
【解析】
9．细节理解题。根据第一段中的"Indeed, this love of speed seems never-ending"可知,新产品更加节省时间,是因为人们对速度的追求是无止境的。故选A。
10．推理判断题。作者讲述了科技给人们的生活带来的改变,但是它也带来了弊端,因而作者站在一个客观公正的角度阐述对科技的看法。故选B。
11．主旨大意题。文章主要讨论的是当代科技和它的影响。故D项正确。
【备注】文章主要讲述了科技给人们的生活带来的改变。人们对速度的追求使科技不断得到更新,但由于科技发展而节约下来的时间并没有被用来进行放松。

Recently, my friend John lost his wife Janet. For eight years she fought against cancer, but in the end her sickness had the last word.
One day John took out a folded piece of paper from his wallet. He found it, when he cleared some drawers at home. It was a small love letter Janet had written. The note could look like a school girl’s scrawls (潦草的笔记)about her dream guy. But the small letter was written by a woman who had had seven children, a woman who fought for her life and who probably only had a few months left to live.
It was a beautiful recipe (秘诀)for how to keep a happy marriage together.
Janet’s description of her husband begins thus, "Loved me. Took care of me. Worried about me."
John showed great consideration for Janet. Sometimes he came home in the evening to find her in low spirits. In no time he got her into the car and drove her to her favorite restaurant.
"Helped me when I was ill," the next line reads. Perhaps Janet wrote this while the cancer was in the stage where everything was — almost — as it used to be, before the sickness broke out, and where it doesn’t hurt to hope that everything is over, maybe forever.
"Stood by my side."
"Made sure I had everything I needed," she continues to write.
After that she turned over the paper and added, "Warmth. Humor. Kindness. Thoughtfulness." And then she writes about the husband she has lived with and loved the most of her life, "Always there for me when I needed you."
The last words she writes sum up all the others, "Good friend."
I stand beside John now, and cannot pretend to know how it feels to lose someone who is as close to me as Janet was to him.
"John," I ask."How do you stick together with someone through 38 years — not to mention the sickness? How do I know if I can bear to stand by my wife’s side if she becomes sick one day?"
"You can," he says quietly."If you love her enough."
12．How did John get the love letter?
A.Janet sent it to him when she was a girl.
B.John cleared the drawers at home and found it.
C.Janet hid the letter in his wallet before her death.
D.The author handed it over to John after Janet’s death.
13．In Janet’s mind, her husband was a man.
A.humorous B.brave C.thoughtless D.broken-hearted
14．In the author’s eyes, Janet’s love letter is .
A.a song of praise B.the secret of a happy marriage
C.the will of Janet D.a concern for John
15．When Janet felt down, John comforted her by .
A.standing by her side B.telling her funny stories
C.taking her to eat out D.driving her around in the car
【答案】
12．B
13．A
14．B
15．C
【解析】
12．细节理解题。 由第二段的第二句可知,当约翰在家整理抽屉时,他发现了这封情书。
13．细节理解题。由文章倒数第五段的第一句话可知她认为约翰是一个幽默的人。
14．推理判断题。 由第三段的内容可知,在作者眼里这封情书就是美好婚姻的秘诀。
15．细节理解题。 由第五段可知,有时约翰晚上回家,发现妻子情绪低落,他会立刻开车带她去她最喜欢的餐馆。
【备注】约翰失去了与癌症抗争八年的妻子。他在整理抽屉时发现了她写的一封情书。简短的语言表达了她感受到的他对她的爱。正是这份爱让他们相濡以沫,风雨同舟。

二、七选五：共5题 每题2分 共10分
Today, roller skating is easy. But a long time ago, 16 Before 1750, the idea of skating didn’t exist. That changed because of a man named Joseph Merlin. Merlin’s work was making musical instrument. In his spare time he liked to play the violin. Joseph Merlin was a man of ideas and dreams. 17 ?
One day Merlin received an invitation to attend a fancy dress ball. 18 As the day of the party came near, Merlin began to think how to make a grand entrance at the party. He had an idea. He thought he would get a lot of attention if he could skate into the room.
Merlin tried different ways to make himself roll. Finally, he decided to put two wheels under each shoe. 19 Merlin was very proud of his invention and dreamed of arriving at the party on wheels while playing the violin.
On the night of the party Merlin rolled into the room playing his violin. Everyone was astonished to see him. But there was just one problem. 20 He rolled on and on. Suddenly he ran into a huge mirror that was hanging on the wall. Down fell the mirror, breaking into pieces. Nobody forgot Merlin’s grand entrance for a long time.
A.He was very pleased and excited.
B.Only people from rich families could afford roller skating.
C.Merlin had no way to stop his roller skates.
D.it wasn’t easy at all.
E.People called him a dreamer.
F.One of his wheels suddenly broke down.
G.These were the first roller skates.
【答案】
16．D
17．E
18．A
19．G
20．C
【解析】
16．前一句"Today, roller skating is easy."介绍说现在滑旱冰很容易,又根据转折连词"But"可知,本句指的是在过去滑旱冰不容易。
17．根据"Joseph Merlin was a man of ideas and dreams"可知,本句指的是人们把他叫做梦想家。
18．前一句说,他接到了一个邀请,可知此处指的是,他很高兴。
19．根据前一句,他决定在鞋下面安装两个轮子,以及文章开头的叙述,在Joseph Merlin之前并没有旱冰鞋。可知此处指的是,这就是最初的旱冰鞋。
20．根据后两句的描述可知,Merlin没有办法停下来。
【备注】这篇短文主要讲述了旱冰鞋的发明历史。主人公在收到参加舞会的邀请后,突发奇想,在鞋下面安装了两个轮子。世界上的第一双旱冰鞋就这样诞生了。

I had arrived at the airport about 30 minutes before the check-in. It had been a very 21 three days for me with lots of meetings. So I was glad to have the 22 time to make my notes on what I 23 to do the following day. But then came the 24 that my flight had to be 25 because there was a problem with the plane.
As I sat waiting for my 26 to be called, I reflected on my last meeting of the day. It was not a business meeting but rather a very enjoyable 27 with an old business friend I had not seen for over 12 years. Our lunch was spent recalling times gone by 28 filling each other in what had happened in our lives over the last 12 years. We both laughed and smiled as we recalled the good times and the great experiences we had 29 together. At the end of our time together, we both said how much we had 30 it and that we must do it again.
It was great to have this additional time to replay in my 31 all that we had talked about. I realized just how important it was to have regular 32 of the good times in our life. I was lucky enough to have had the chance to take a short 33 and reflect on the good things that had happened in my life over 12 years.
It was somewhat like looking at an old photo album 34 in a cupboard in your house. There before your eyes are lots of wonderful 35 that take you back to times and places, and most importantly to those people who are in the 36 .
My flight home was finally 37 three hours later. I smiled as I 38 the plane and realized that I was not at all 39 about the delay in the flight, as I had been able to spend the time 40 on the good times from days gone by.

21．由"with lots of meetings"可知应是很繁忙的(busy)三天;而不是重要的(important),快的(quick)和有用的(useful)三天,因为这些和后文不照应,故选B项。
22．第一句说作者在检票前大约30分钟到了机场,所以就有额外的时间来计划接下来需要做的事情。pleasant令人愉快的;satisfying令人满意的;happy高兴的;extra额外的。故选D项。
23．结合上下文可知,那三天来,由于一直忙于参加很多会议,"我"很乐意有时间来计划接下来"需要"做的事情。故选C项。
24．分析句意可知,这时机场发布了一则公告。announcement公告,宣告;declaration声明,宣言;opening开端;speech演讲。故选A项。
25．飞机出了问题,带来的应是航班"延误"或者被"取消"的结果,但从下文可知,飞机航班并没有被取消。整句话的意思应为"但是正在那时,机场发布了通知,此趟航班因为飞机出了故障而延迟了"。delay"延迟,拖延",符合题意,故选D项。
26．飞机没有来,"我"坐在那里应该是"等待航班"。flight航班;turn转动;name名字;order命令。故选A项。
27．那不是一个商务会议,而是"我"与一个业务上的朋友的一次愉快的午餐。negotiation协商,谈判;lunch午餐;party聚会;discussion讨论。故选B项。
28．分析句意可知,作者要说的是在午饭时做了什么,recalling和filling引导的短语是并列关系,需要一个合适的连接词把它们连接起来。as well as除……之外,还,多用于连接两个并列成分;as well也,又,用法与too相似;except for除……以外;in addition另外,单独使用,其后不能直接连接其他成分。根据句意和词组用法,可知as well as符合句意,故选C项。
29．回忆起以前我们共有的快乐时光和经历,我们都很开心,故选D项。
30．由"…we must do it again"可知我们很享受那天的聚会。故选B项。
31．有这样额外的时间在我的脑海中来回想我们的对话实在是太好了。故选D项。

33．从上下文可知,作者认为自己很幸运,有这样一个机会来放松一下并回忆过去的快乐时光。take a break"休息一下",故选D项。
34．store away贮藏,保存;put on穿上;set aside留出;give out分发。store away符合题意,故选A项。
35．看着相册,展现在眼前的应是许多精彩的"回忆"。celebration庆祝;memory记忆,回忆;award奖品;present礼物。A、C、D三项与语境和作者要表达的内容不吻合,无法概括。故选B项。
36．上文提到了photo album,显然文中说的应该是"照片"中的人物。呈现在你眼前的是许多精彩的回忆,它们带你回到过去的时光和场景,更重要的是,它们让你想起照片中的那些人。故选D项。
37．3小时后,回家的班机终于要起飞了。由第二段的第一句话可知答案为called。shout叫喊;phone打电话;call喊叫;command命令,故选C项。
38．飞机来了,作者要登机,而不是离开飞机。board the plane登机,符合语境,故选B项。
39．通过整篇文章我们分析作者的心情应是很愉快的。句意:我微笑着登上了飞机,并且意识到我对于飞机的晚点并不心烦。upset心烦意乱的;happy高兴的;crazy疯狂的;surprised惊讶的。结合句意可知,upset符合题意,故选A项。
40．作者心情好的原因应是"有时间去回顾那些逝去的好时光"。第二段和第三段都提到了reflect on这个短语,故选C项。
【备注】文章通过叙述"我"在等待飞机的时候,对往事的回忆,告诉我们要经常停留一下,回顾生活中的美好事情。

四、语法填空：共10题 每题1分 共10分
Are you facing a situation that looks impossible to fix?
In 1969, the pollution was terrible along the Cuyahoga River near Cleveland, Ohio. It 41 (be) unimaginable that it could ever be cleaned up. The river was so polluted that it 42 (actual) caught fire and burned. Now, years later, this river is one of 43 most outstanding examples of environmental cleanup.
But the river wasn’t changed in a few days 44 even a few months. It took years of work 45 (reduce) the industrial pollution and clean the water. Finally, that hard work paid off and now the water in the river is 46 (clean) than ever.
Maybe you are facing an impossible situation. Maybe you have a habit 47 is driving your family crazy. Possibly you drink too much or don’t know how to control your credit card use. When you face such an impossible situation, don’t you want a quick fix and something to change immediately?
While there are 48 (amaze) stories of instant transformation, for most of us the 49 (change) are gradual and require a lot of effort and work, like cleaning up a polluted river. Just be 50 (patience).
【答案】
41．was
42．actually
43． the
44．or
45．to reduce
46．cleaner
47．that/which
48．amazing
49．changes
50．patient
【解析】
41．考查谓语动词。由时间状语"In 1969"可知,应用一般过去时,故用was。
42．考查词形转换。空格在动词前,应用副词,本空填actually。
43．考查冠词。后面有形容词的最高级,因此该空填定冠词the。
44．考查连词。本句为否定句,故用or连接两个并列成分。
45．考查非谓语动词。本句是It took…to do sth.句型,因此本空填不定式to reduce。
46．考查形容词的比较级。空后的than ever暗示空处应填形容词的比较级cleaner。
47．考查定语从句。本句含有定语从句,先行词为a habit,指物,在从句中作主语,应填关系代词that/which。
48．考查词形转换。本空在名词之前,应用形容词作定语。amazing修饰名词stories。
49．考查名词。本句为主系表结构,空格后的are gradual暗示本空填名词复数changes。
50．考查词形转换。本句为祈使句。在系动词be后应用形容词作表语,因此本空填patient。
【备注】本文通过一个城市清理工业污染的例子说明这样一个道理:只要我们坚持不懈,我们可以做成那些看似不可能的事情。

3.参考词汇:模仿 imitate
【答案】At present an increasing number of teenagers are taking part in TV talent shows, on which students’ opinions are different. Some think that it is a stage to show their talents of art, contributing much to their social experience and self-confidence. What’s more, it’s good for their overall development.
However, other students hold the different idea that the teenagers are just imitating others rather than showing something original. Besides, some are such "star dream" followers that they can’t put their heart and soul into their study, thus affecting their study badly.
In my opinion, important as study is, it’s not the only thing we can do. It is preferable to explore our abilities in other areas besides study.

一、阅读理解：共15题 每题2分 共30分
When I wake up on summer mornings, I know I am going to my favorite place to volunteer and make a difference in someone’s life just by being with him or her — a summer school for autistic (孤独症的) children.
By helping the kids read or do math homework, I am not only teaching important skills but also helping them feel like any other kid. There are many wrong ideas about autism(孤独症).The kids I work with can think and feel. They need help only in certain areas. Of course, each kid is special. For example, some kids like to draw, and others like to sing.
At school, the kids learn through about 20 activities. These activities can help them learn skills they will need later in life.
The very first day I volunteered, a boy came up to me, put his hand on my shoulder, and said "Hello". From then on, I knew I could make a difference. Another boy loved to have me read books that can help him learn to read. Sometimes he could be encouraged to read a few words or sentences. Finally, one day during the reading practice, he read nearly 220 words himself!
The summer school is also a place for fun. Last summer, bagpipe(风笛) players came to perform. Most of us had our hands over our ears because they were so loud. When they asked for a volunteer from the audience, one girl raised her hand as high as she could, appeared on stage, and even tried the bagpipes in front of everyone.
Through these experiences, I realize that the challenges these kids face do not stop them from doing many amazing things. I’m teaching them, but they are teaching me more.
1．According to Paragraph 2, many people think autistic kids .
A.can’t read or do math homework B.don’t have important skills
C.don’t play with other kids D.can’t think or feel
2．The author believed he could make a difference when .
A.a boy greeted him actively B.a boy let him read books

Modern inventions have speeded up people’s lives amazingly. Motor cars cover a hundred miles in little more than an hour, aircraft cross the world a day, while computers operate at lightning speed. Indeed, this love of speed seems never-ending. Every year Motor cars are produced which go even faster and each new computer boasts(自夸) of saving precious seconds in handling tasks.
All of these save time, but at a price. When we lose or gain half a day in speeding across the world in an airplane, our bodies tell us so. We get the uncomfortable feeling known as jet lag; our bodies feel that they have been left behind in another time zone. Again, spending too long on computers results in painful wrists and fingers. Mobile phones also have the danger according to some scientists; too much use may transmit harmful radiation into our brains, a consequence we do not like to think about. However, what do we do with the time we have saved? Certainly not to relax. We are so accustomed to constant activity that we find it difficult to sit and do nothing or even just one thing at a time. Perhaps the days are long gone when we might listen quietly to a story on the radio, letting imaginations take us into another world.
There was a time when some people’s lives were devoted simply to the cultivation of the land or the care of cattle. No multi-tasking there; their lives went on at a much gentler pace, and in a familiar pattern. There is much that we might envy about a way of life like this. Yet before we do so, we must think of the hard tasks our ancestors faced; they farmed with bare hands, often lived close to hunger, and had to fashion tools from wood and stone. Modern machinery has freed people from that primitive existence.
9．The new products become more and more time-saving because .
A.our love of speed seems never-ending B.time is limited
C.the prices are increasingly high D.the manufacturers boast a lot
10．What is the author’s attitude towards the modern technology?
A.Critical. B.Objective. C.Optimistic. D.Negative.
11．What does the passage mainly discuss?
A.The present and past times. B.Machinery and human beings.
C.Imaginations and inventions. D.Modern technology and its influence.
【答案】
9．A
10．B
11．D
【解析】
9．细节理解题。根据第一段中的"Indeed, this love of speed seems never-ending"可知,新产品更加节省时间,是因为人们对速度的追求是无止境的。故选A。
10．推理判断题。作者讲述了科技给人们的生活带来的改变,但是它也带来了弊端,因而作者站在一个客观公正的角度阐述对科技的看法。故选B。
11．主旨大意题。文章主要讨论的是当代科技和它的影响。故D项正确。
【备注】文章主要讲述了科技给人们的生活带来的改变。人们对速度的追求使科技不断得到更新,但由于科技发展而节约下来的时间并没有被用来进行放松。

Recently, my friend John lost his wife Janet. For eight years she fought against cancer, but in the end her sickness had the last word.
One day John took out a folded piece of paper from his wallet. He found it, when he cleared some drawers at home. It was a small love letter Janet had written. The note could look like a school girl’s scrawls (潦草的笔记)about her dream guy. But the small letter was written by a woman who had had seven children, a woman who fought for her life and who probably only had a few months left to live.
It was a beautiful recipe (秘诀)for how to keep a happy marriage together.
Janet’s description of her husband begins thus, "Loved me. Took care of me. Worried about me."
John showed great consideration for Janet. Sometimes he came home in the evening to find her in low spirits. In no time he got her into the car and drove her to her favorite restaurant.
"Helped me when I was ill," the next line reads. Perhaps Janet wrote this while the cancer was in the stage where everything was — almost — as it used to be, before the sickness broke out, and where it doesn’t hurt to hope that everything is over, maybe forever.
"Stood by my side."
"Made sure I had everything I needed," she continues to write.
After that she turned over the paper and added, "Warmth. Humor. Kindness. Thoughtfulness." And then she writes about the husband she has lived with and loved the most of her life, "Always there for me when I needed you."
The last words she writes sum up all the others, "Good friend."
I stand beside John now, and cannot pretend to know how it feels to lose someone who is as close to me as Janet was to him.
"John," I ask."How do you stick together with someone through 38 years — not to mention the sickness? How do I know if I can bear to stand by my wife’s side if she becomes sick one day?"
"You can," he says quietly."If you love her enough."
12．How did John get the love letter?
A.Janet sent it to him when she was a girl.
B.John cleared the drawers at home and found it.
C.Janet hid the letter in his wallet before her death.
D.The author handed it over to John after Janet’s death.
13．In Janet’s mind, her husband was a man.
A.humorous B.brave C.thoughtless D.broken-hearted
14．In the author’s eyes, Janet’s love letter is .
A.a song of praise B.the secret of a happy marriage
C.the will of Janet D.a concern for John
15．When Janet felt down, John comforted her by .
A.standing by her side B.telling her funny stories
C.taking her to eat out D.driving her around in the car
【答案】
12．B
13．A
14．B
15．C
【解析】
12．细节理解题。 由第二段的第二句可知,当约翰在家整理抽屉时,他发现了这封情书。
13．细节理解题。由文章倒数第五段的第一句话可知她认为约翰是一个幽默的人。
14．推理判断题。 由第三段的内容可知,在作者眼里这封情书就是美好婚姻的秘诀。
15．细节理解题。 由第五段可知,有时约翰晚上回家,发现妻子情绪低落,他会立刻开车带她去她最喜欢的餐馆。
【备注】约翰失去了与癌症抗争八年的妻子。他在整理抽屉时发现了她写的一封情书。简短的语言表达了她感受到的他对她的爱。正是这份爱让他们相濡以沫,风雨同舟。

Today, roller skating is easy. But a long time ago, 16 Before 1750, the idea of skating didn’t exist. That changed because of a man named Joseph Merlin. Merlin’s work was making musical instrument. In his spare time he liked to play the violin. Joseph Merlin was a man of ideas and dreams. 17 ?
One day Merlin received an invitation to attend a fancy dress ball. 18 As the day of the party came near, Merlin began to think how to make a grand entrance at the party. He had an idea. He thought he would get a lot of attention if he could skate into the room.
Merlin tried different ways to make himself roll. Finally, he decided to put two wheels under each shoe. 19 Merlin was very proud of his invention and dreamed of arriving at the party on wheels while playing the violin.
On the night of the party Merlin rolled into the room playing his violin. Everyone was astonished to see him. But there was just one problem. 20 He rolled on and on. Suddenly he ran into a huge mirror that was hanging on the wall. Down fell the mirror, breaking into pieces. Nobody forgot Merlin’s grand entrance for a long time.
A.He was very pleased and excited.
B.Only people from rich families could afford roller skating.
C.Merlin had no way to stop his roller skates.
D.it wasn’t easy at all.

【答案】
16．D
17．E
18．A
19．G
20．C
【解析】
16．前一句"Today, roller skating is easy."介绍说现在滑旱冰很容易,又根据转折连词"But"可知,本句指的是在过去滑旱冰不容易。
17．根据"Joseph Merlin was a man of ideas and dreams"可知,本句指的是人们把他叫做梦想家。
18．前一句说,他接到了一个邀请,可知此处指的是,他很高兴。
19．根据前一句,他决定在鞋下面安装两个轮子,以及文章开头的叙述,在Joseph Merlin之前并没有旱冰鞋。可知此处指的是,这就是最初的旱冰鞋。
20．根据后两句的描述可知,Merlin没有办法停下来。
【备注】这篇短文主要讲述了旱冰鞋的发明历史。主人公在收到参加舞会的邀请后,突发奇想,在鞋下面安装了两个轮子。世界上的第一双旱冰鞋就这样诞生了。

As I sat waiting for my 26 to be called, I reflected on my last meeting of the day. It was not a business meeting but rather a very enjoyable 27 with an old business friend I had not seen for over 12 years. Our lunch was spent recalling times gone by 28 filling each other in what had happened in our lives over the last 12 years. We both laughed and smiled as we recalled the good times and the great experiences we had 29 together. At the end of our time together, we both said how much we had 30 it and that we must do it again.
It was great to have this additional time to replay in my 31 all that we had talked about. I realized just how important it was to have regular 32 of the good times in our life. I was lucky enough to have had the chance to take a short 33 and reflect on the good things that had happened in my life over 12 years.
It was somewhat like looking at an old photo album 34 in a cupboard in your house. There before your eyes are lots of wonderful 35 that take you back to times and places, and most importantly to those people who are in the 36 .
My flight home was finally 37 three hours later. I smiled as I 38 the plane and realized that I was not at all 39 about the delay in the flight, as I had been able to spend the time 40 on the good times from days gone by.

21．由"with lots of meetings"可知应是很繁忙的(busy)三天;而不是重要的(important),快的(quick)和有用的(useful)三天,因为这些和后文不照应,故选B项。
22．第一句说作者在检票前大约30分钟到了机场,所以就有额外的时间来计划接下来需要做的事情。pleasant令人愉快的;satisfying令人满意的;happy高兴的;extra额外的。故选D项。
23．结合上下文可知,那三天来,由于一直忙于参加很多会议,"我"很乐意有时间来计划接下来"需要"做的事情。故选C项。
24．分析句意可知,这时机场发布了一则公告。announcement公告,宣告;declaration声明,宣言;opening开端;speech演讲。故选A项。
25．飞机出了问题,带来的应是航班"延误"或者被"取消"的结果,但从下文可知,飞机航班并没有被取消。整句话的意思应为"但是正在那时,机场发布了通知,此趟航班因为飞机出了故障而延迟了"。delay"延迟,拖延",符合题意,故选D项。
26．飞机没有来,"我"坐在那里应该是"等待航班"。flight航班;turn转动;name名字;order命令。故选A项。
27．那不是一个商务会议,而是"我"与一个业务上的朋友的一次愉快的午餐。negotiation协商,谈判;lunch午餐;party聚会;discussion讨论。故选B项。
28．分析句意可知,作者要说的是在午饭时做了什么,recalling和filling引导的短语是并列关系,需要一个合适的连接词把它们连接起来。as well as除……之外,还,多用于连接两个并列成分;as well也,又,用法与too相似;except for除……以外;in addition另外,单独使用,其后不能直接连接其他成分。根据句意和词组用法,可知as well as符合句意,故选C项。
29．回忆起以前我们共有的快乐时光和经历,我们都很开心,故选D项。
30．由"…we must do it again"可知我们很享受那天的聚会。故选B项。
31．有这样额外的时间在我的脑海中来回想我们的对话实在是太好了。故选D项。

33．从上下文可知,作者认为自己很幸运,有这样一个机会来放松一下并回忆过去的快乐时光。take a break"休息一下",故选D项。
34．store away贮藏,保存;put on穿上;set aside留出;give out分发。store away符合题意,故选A项。
35．看着相册,展现在眼前的应是许多精彩的"回忆"。celebration庆祝;memory记忆,回忆;award奖品;present礼物。A、C、D三项与语境和作者要表达的内容不吻合,无法概括。故选B项。
36．上文提到了photo album,显然文中说的应该是"照片"中的人物。呈现在你眼前的是许多精彩的回忆,它们带你回到过去的时光和场景,更重要的是,它们让你想起照片中的那些人。故选D项。
37．3小时后,回家的班机终于要起飞了。由第二段的第一句话可知答案为called。shout叫喊;phone打电话;call喊叫;command命令,故选C项。
38．飞机来了,作者要登机,而不是离开飞机。board the plane登机,符合语境,故选B项。
39．通过整篇文章我们分析作者的心情应是很愉快的。句意:我微笑着登上了飞机,并且意识到我对于飞机的晚点并不心烦。upset心烦意乱的;happy高兴的;crazy疯狂的;surprised惊讶的。结合句意可知,upset符合题意,故选A项。
40．作者心情好的原因应是"有时间去回顾那些逝去的好时光"。第二段和第三段都提到了reflect on这个短语,故选C项。
【备注】文章通过叙述"我"在等待飞机的时候,对往事的回忆,告诉我们要经常停留一下,回顾生活中的美好事情。

四、语法填空：共10题 每题1分 共10分
Are you facing a situation that looks impossible to fix?
In 1969, the pollution was terrible along the Cuyahoga River near Cleveland, Ohio. It 41 (be) unimaginable that it could ever be cleaned up. The river was so polluted that it 42 (actual) caught fire and burned. Now, years later, this river is one of 43 most outstanding examples of environmental cleanup.
But the river wasn’t changed in a few days 44 even a few months. It took years of work 45 (reduce) the industrial pollution and clean the water. Finally, that hard work paid off and now the water in the river is 46 (clean) than ever.
Maybe you are facing an impossible situation. Maybe you have a habit 47 is driving your family crazy. Possibly you drink too much or don’t know how to control your credit card use. When you face such an impossible situation, don’t you want a quick fix and something to change immediately?
While there are 48 (amaze) stories of instant transformation, for most of us the 49 (change) are gradual and require a lot of effort and work, like cleaning up a polluted river. Just be 50 (patience).
【答案】
41．was
42．actually
43． the
44．or
45．to reduce
46．cleaner
47．that/which
48．amazing
49．changes
50．patient
【解析】
41．考查谓语动词。由时间状语"In 1969"可知,应用一般过去时,故用was。
42．考查词形转换。空格在动词前,应用副词,本空填actually。
43．考查冠词。后面有形容词的最高级,因此该空填定冠词the。
44．考查连词。本句为否定句,故用or连接两个并列成分。
45．考查非谓语动词。本句是It took…to do sth.句型,因此本空填不定式to reduce。
46．考查形容词的比较级。空后的than ever暗示空处应填形容词的比较级cleaner。
47．考查定语从句。本句含有定语从句,先行词为a habit,指物,在从句中作主语,应填关系代词that/which。
48．考查词形转换。本空在名词之前,应用形容词作定语。amazing修饰名词stories。
49．考查名词。本句为主系表结构,空格后的are gradual暗示本空填名词复数changes。
50．考查词形转换。本句为祈使句。在系动词be后应用形容词作表语,因此本空填patient。
【备注】本文通过一个城市清理工业污染的例子说明这样一个道理:只要我们坚持不懈,我们可以做成那些看似不可能的事情。

3.参考词汇:模仿 imitate
【答案】At present an increasing number of teenagers are taking part in TV talent shows, on which students’ opinions are different. Some think that it is a stage to show their talents of art, contributing much to their social experience and self-confidence. What’s more, it’s good for their overall development.
However, other students hold the different idea that the teenagers are just imitating others rather than showing something original. Besides, some are such "star dream" followers that they can’t put their heart and soul into their study, thus affecting their study badly.
In my opinion, important as study is, it’s not the only thing we can do. It is preferable to explore our abilities in other areas besides study.
