Take a view,the Landscape (风景)Photographer of the Year Award,was the idea of Charlie Waite,one of today's most respected landscape photographers.Each year,the high standard of entries has shown that the Awards are the perfect platform to showcase the very best photography of the British landscape.Take a view is a desirable annual competition for photographers from all corners of the UK and beyond.
Mike Shepherd(2011)Skiddaw in WinterCumbria,England It was an extremely cold winter's evening and freezing fog hung in the air.I climbed to the top of a small rise and realised that the mist was little more than a few feet deep,and though it was only a short climb,I found myself completely above it and looking at a wonderfully clear view of Skiddaw with the sun setting in the west.I used classical techniques,translated from my college days spent in the darkroom into Photoshop,to achieve the black and white image(图像).
Timothy Smith(2014)MacclesfieldForestCheshire,England I was back in my home town of Macclesfield to take some winter images.Walking up a path through the forest towards Shutlingsloe,a local high point,I came across a small clearing and immediately noticed the dead yellow grasses set against the fresh snow.The small pine added to the interest and I placed it centrally to take the view from the foreground right through into the forest.
21.Who would most probably enter for Take a view
A.Writers. B.Photographers.
C.Painters. D.Tourists.
22.What do the works by Shepherd and Smith have in common

Port Lympne Reserve,which runs a breeding(繁育)programme,has welcomed the arrival of a rare black rhino calf(犀牛幼崽).When the tiny creature arrived on January 31,she became the 40th black rhino to be born at the reserve.And officials at Port Lympne were delighted with the new arrival,especially as black rhinos are known for being difficult to breed in captivity(圈养).
Paul Beer,head of rhino section at Port Lympne,said: “Obviously we're all absolutely delighted to welcome another calf to our black rhino family.She's healthy,strong and already eager to play and explore.Her mother,Solio,is a first time mum and she is doing a fantastic job.It's still a little too cold for them to go out into the open,but as soon as the weather warms up,I have no doubt that the little one will be out and about exploring and playing every day.”
The adorable female calf is the second black rhino born this year at the reserve,but it is too early to tell if the calves will make good candidates to be returned to protected areas of the wild.The first rhino to be born at Port Lympne arrived on January 5 to first time mother Kisima and weighed about 32kg.His mother,grandmother and great grandmother were all born at the reserve and still live there.
According to the World Wildlife Fund,the global black rhino population has dropped as low as 5500,giving the rhinos a “critically endangered” status.
24.Which of the following best describes the breeding programme
A.Costly. B.Controversial.
C.Ambitious. D.Successful.
25.What does Paul Beer say about the new born rhino
A.She loves staying with her mother.
B.She dislikes outdoor activities.
C.She is in good condition.
D.She is sensitive to heat.
26.What similar experience do Solio and Kisima have
A.They had their first born in January.
B.They enjoyed exploring new places.
C.They lived with their grandmothers.
D.They were brought to the reserve young.
27.What can be inferred about Port Lympne Reserve
A.The rhino section will be open to the public.
B.It aims to control the number of the animals.
C.It will continue to work with the World Wildlife Fund.
D.Some of its rhinos may be sent to the protected wild areas.
【语篇解读】 在Port Lympne保护区降生了一头罕见的黑犀牛幼崽,这种稀有动物因很难圈养繁殖,因此尤其珍贵。
24.D [推理判断题。根据第一段第二句“When the tiny creature arrived on January 31,she became the 40th black rhino to be born at the reserve.”以及倒数第二段中的“The first rhino to be born at Port Lympne arrived on January 5...His mother,grandmother and great grandmother were all born at the reserve and still live there.”可推知,该保护区的繁育计划是成功的。故选D项。]
25.C [细节理解题。根据第二段第二句“She's healthy,strong and already eager to play and explore.”可知,新出生的犀牛状态良好。故选C项。]
26.A [细节理解题。根据第一段第二句“When the tiny creature arrived on January 31...”、第二段中的“Her mother,Solio,is a first time mum...”和第三段第二句“The first rhino to be born at Port Lympne arrived on January 5 to first time mother Kisima...”可知,两头犀牛幼崽都于一月出生,而且Solio和Kisima这两头母犀牛都是第一次生产。故选A项。]
27.D [推理判断题。根据第三段第一句中的“...but it is too early to tell if the calves will make good candidates to be returned to protected areas of the wild.”可推知,有一些黑犀牛也许会被送到野生动物保护区。故选D项。]

When I was 9,we packed up our home in Los Angeles and arrived at Heathrow,London on a gray January morning.Everyone in the family settled quickly into the city except me.Without my beloved beaches and endless blue sky days,I felt at a loss and out of place.Until I made a discovery.
Southbank,at an eastern bend in the Thames,is the center of British skateboarding,where the continuous crashing of skateboards left your head ringing.I loved it.I soon made friends with the local skaters.We spoke our own language.And my favorite: Safe.Safe meant cool.It meant hello.It meant don't worry about it.Once,when trying a certain trick on the beam(横杆),I fell onto the stones,damaging a nerve in my hand,and Toby came over,helping me up: Safe,man.Safe.A few minutes later,when I landed the trick,my friends beat their boards loud,shouting: “Safe!_Safe!_Safe!” And that's what mattered—landing tricks,being a good skater.
When I was 15,my family moved to Washington.I tried skateboarding there,but the locals were far less welcoming.Within a couple of years,I'd given it up.
When I returned to London in 2004,I found myself wandering down to Southbank,spending hours there.I've traveled back several times since,most recently this past spring.The day was cold but clear; tourists and Londoners stopped to watch the skaters.Weaving(穿梭)among the kids who rushed by on their boards,I found my way to the beam.Then a rail thin teenager,in a baggy white T shirt,skidded (滑)up to the beam.He sat next to me.He seemed not to notice the man next to him.But soon I caught a few of his glances.“I was a local here 20 years ago,” I told him.Then,slowly,he began to nod his head.“Safe,man.Safe.”
“Yeah,” I said.“Safe.”
28.What can we learn about the author soon after he moved to London
A.He felt disappointed.
B.He gave up his hobby.
C.He liked the weather there.
D.He had disagreements with his family.
29.What do the underlined words “Safe! Safe! Safe!” probably mean
A.Be careful! B.Well done!
C.No way! D.Don't worry!
30.Why did the author like to spend time in Southbank when he returned to London
A.To join the skateboarding.
B.To make new friends.
C.To learn more tricks.
D.To relive his childhood days.
31.What message does the author seem to convey in the text
A.Children should learn a second language.
B.Sport is necessary for children's health.
C.Children need a sense of belonging.
D.Seeing the world is a must for children.
【语篇解读】 本文讲述了作者怀念小时候搬家后玩滑板的经历。
28.A [细节理解题。根据第一段倒数第二句“Without my beloved beaches and endless blue sky days,I felt at a loss and out of place.”可知,作者搬到伦敦后感觉不知所措且无所适从。分析四个选项可知,A项中的disappointed(沮丧的)准确描述了作者的心情。故选A项。]
29.B [词义猜测题。根据第二段最后一句“And that's what mattered—landing tricks,being a good skater.”可知,成为一名好的滑行者,落地技巧是重要的。再根据上句中的“when I landed the trick,my friends beat their boards loud, shouting...”可知,作者成功掌握了落地技巧,他的朋友们夸赞他干得漂亮。故选B项。]
30.D [推理判断题。根据第四段中的“I found myself wandering down to Southbank,spending hours there.I've traveled back several times since...Weaving among the kids who rushed by on their boards, I found my way to the beam.”可知,作者在回到伦敦后,花了数小时在Southbank漫步,并且去了多次,穿梭于玩滑板的孩子之间,忆起自己的过往。由此可推断作者在重温儿时美好的日子。故选D项。]
31.C [推理判断题。通读全文可知,作者从洛杉矶搬到伦敦后感到不适应,后在一个滑板运动中心交到了好友。作者15岁时,一家又搬到了华盛顿。他尝试在那里玩滑板,但这项运动在那里并不受欢迎,故作者几年后放弃了。作者再次回到伦敦后,怀念小时候在伦敦的经历。这些都显示出孩子需要归属感。故选C项。]

Who is a genius This question has greatly interested humankind for centuries.
Let's state clearly: Einstein was a genius.His face is almost the international symbol for genius.But we want to go beyond one man and explore the nature of genius itself.Why is it that some people are so much more intelligent or creative than the rest of us And who are they
In the sciences and arts,those praised as geniuses were most often white men,of European origin.Perhaps this is not a surprise.It's said that history is written by the victors,and those victors set the standards for admission to the genius club.When contributions were made by geniuses outside the club—women,or people of a different color or belief—they were unacknowledged and rejected by others.
A study recently published by Science found that as young as age six,girls are less likely than boys to say that members of their gender(性别)are “really,really smart.” Even worse,the study found that girls act on that belief: Around age six they start to avoid activities said to be for children who are “really,really smart.” Can our planet afford to have any great thinkers become discouraged and give up It doesn't take a genius to know the answer: absolutely not.
Here's the good news.In a wired world with constant global communication,we're all positioned to see flashes of genius wherever they appear.And the more we look,the more we will see that social factors (因素)like gender,race,and class do not determine the appearance of genius.As a writer says,future geniuses come from those with “intelligence,creativity,perseverance (毅力),and simple good fortune,who are able to change the world.”
32.What does the author think of victors' standards for joining the genius club
A.They're unfair.
B.They're conservative.
C.They're objective.
D.They're strict.
33.What can we infer about girls from the study in Science
A.They think themselves smart.
B.They look up to great thinkers.
C.They see gender differences earlier than boys.
D.They are likely to be influenced by social beliefs.
34.Why are more geniuses known to the public
A.Improved global communication.
B.Less discrimination against women.
C.Acceptance of victors' concepts.
D.Changes in people's social positions.
35.What is the best title for the text
A.Geniuses Think Alike
B.Genius Takes Many Forms
C.Genius and Intelligence
D.Genius and Luck
【语篇解读】 不论是在科学界还是艺术界,判断一个人是不是“天才”只有一个标准——“胜利者的标准”。然而这是一个极为不公平的判断标准,因为它将很大一部分人排除在“天才俱乐部”外。好消息是这种情况正在得到改善。
32.A [推理判断题。根据第三段的“It's said that history is written by the victors,and those victors set the standards for admission to the genius club.When contributions were made by geniuses outside the club—women,or people of a different color or belief—they were unacknowledged and rejected by others.”可知,历史是由胜利者书写的,而这些胜利者也为“天才俱乐部”设定了标准。当“俱乐部”外的天才(即女性、不同肤色或信仰的人)做出贡献时,他们得不到认可,并会被其他人拒绝进入“天才俱乐部”。因此作者认为胜利者为“天才俱乐部”设定的准入标准是不公平的。故选A。]
33.D [推理判断题。根据第四段的“A study recently published by Science found that as young as age six,girls are less likely than boys to say that members of their gender(性别)are ‘really,really smart.’Even worse,the study found that girls act on that belief:Around age six they start to avoid activities said to be for children who are‘really,really smart.’”可知,该项研究发现,女孩会避免去做那些被认为是“特别特别聪明”的孩子才能做的事。由此可知,女孩可能受到社会观念的影响。故选D。]
34.A [细节理解题。根据第五段的“In a wired world with constant global communication,we're all positioned to see flashes of genius wherever they appear.”可知,有更多的天才被公众所知,其原因在于全球通信系统的改善。故选A。]
35.B [主旨大意题。根据文章最后一段中的“...social factors like gender,race,and class do not determine the appearance of genius.As a writer says,future geniuses come from those with‘intelligence,creativity,perseverance,and simple good fortune,who are able to change the world.’”可知,像性别、种族和阶层这样的社会因素并不能决定天才是什么样的。因此B项“天才有多种形式”最能概括本文的主旨。]
第二节(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)
根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
Swap,Don't Shop!
You keep hearing about recycling,right But it doesn't end with bottles,cans,and paper.Clothing takes a huge amount of natural resources (资源)to make,and buying loads of new clothing (or throwing out old clothing)is not healthy for the environment.So what to do with all those perfectly good but you're maybe a little sick of them clothes piled on your bedroom floor? 36 .It's the best way to get rid of your used clothes,score clothes from your friends,and have a party all at the same time.
A successful swap depends on the selection of clothes,the organization of the event,and,obviously,how much fun is had.It's really easy to do! Here are a few pointers.
·Invite 5-10 people so you have a nice selection. 37 ,and there may not be enough things to choose from; more than that,and it becomes uncontrollable.
· 38 .They should also prepare plenty of reusable bags to carry their “new” clothes home.
·Put different types of clothing on different surfaces in the room. 39 .Place a few mirrors around your room so people can see how things look when they try them on.One of the ground rules of the swap should be that everyone must try on the clothes before they take them—things always look different when you put them on.
·Set a starting time.Maybe you say “go,” or turn on a certain song,or whatever. 40 .And don't forget to put out some cookies and fruits.Remember,it's a party!
A.Less people than that
B.Hold a clothing swap
C.If two people are competing
D.Just keep music playing throughout
E.Donate whatever clothes are left over
F.Have everyone put their clothes in the right spots
G.Tell everyone to bring clean clothes in good condition
【语篇解读】 本文主要介绍了如何举办服装交换派对活动来回收利用旧衣服,以达到保护环境的目的。
36.B [分析上下文语境可知,该空起承上启下的作用。空前提到该如何处理你不喜欢的衣服,空后提到舍弃你的旧衣服,从你朋友那里获得衣服。由此可知,空处应提出一种解决你不喜欢的衣服这一问题的方法。分析选项可知,B项“举办旧衣物交换活动”是对该问题的回答;而下一句中的代词It也指代B选项中的clothing swap。故B项正确。]
37.A [分析本句的结构可知,后半句中的“more than that...”和空处所填应形成对比的关系;分析各选项可知,A项符合该处语境,且选项中的that与more than that中的that均指代该段首句中的Invite 5-10 people。故A项正确。]
38.G [该空位于句首,应为段落的主旨句。且由下一句中的also一词可知,两句之间为递进关系,G选项中的bring与下一句“They should also prepare...”中的prepare相呼应,此段介绍参加服装交换派对活动的要求,即不仅要带来干净可穿的衣物,还要准备好装“新”衣物的环保袋。故G项正确。]
39.F [由上下文语境可知,空处应是讲述交换衣服时所做的事情。F选项中put一词是前一句“Put different types of clothing on different surfaces in the room”的关键词复现,表明应把衣物摆放在合适的位置。故F项正确。]
40.D [由空前一句中的“turn on a certain song,or whatever”和空后一句可知,D选项中的“全程播放音乐”与空后“准备一些饼干和水果”,都是为了给旧衣物交换派对活动增添乐趣。故D项正确。]

60.B [考查动词。根据下文“Burchill is now welcome to come back”可知,他写的信起了作用。work“奏效,起到作用”符合语境,故选B。]

【语篇解读】 本文主要介绍了作者骑租来的自行车游览中国悠久历史中幸存下来最完整的城墙——西安古城墙的一次美好经历。
61.was built [考查时态和语态。分析句子结构可知,空处在句中作谓语,与主语it构成动宾关系,故用被动语态;且根据originally可知,此处描述的是过去的情况,故用一般过去时,所以填was built。]
62.in [考查介词。表示“在……朝代”应用介词in。]
63.to walk [考查固定句型。分析句子可知,此处是固定句型“It is+adj.+(for sb.)to do sth.”,It是形式主语,动词不定式短语是真正的主语。]
64.spending [考查非谓语动词。空前的After为介词,后应接动词的 ing形式。故填spending。]
65.better [考查形容词的比较级。分析句子结构,且根据空后的than可知,空处应用good的比较级。]
66.hired [考查时态。根据上下文可知,此句描述的是过去的情况,故用一般过去时。]
67.but [考查连词。根据空处前后的句意可知,“自行车又旧又摇晃”与“能骑”之间是转折关系。故用表转折的连词but。]
68.the [考查冠词。all the way为固定短语,意为“一直,一路上”。]
69.watchtowers [考查名词的单复数。并列连词and连接的词在形式上应保持一致,and前的gates是名词的复数形式,故空处应用所给词的复数形式watchtowers。]
70.daily [考查词性转换。修饰名词routines应用形容词形式,daily routine为固定搭配,意为“日常生活”。]

Dear Chris,
How is everything going To introduce Chinese traditional culture, our school will hold a theme class meeting, which will be exhibited on the English website. I am writing to ask for your valuable advice on the aspects of Chinese traditional culture which are extremely appealing to foreign friends.
As far as I know, Chinese traditional culture, including paper cutting, guzheng and so on, has its unique characteristics. For example, Chinese knots are a symbol of good luck and best wishes. Furthermore, guzheng is of great significance to Chinese folk music leading you to a fantastic world of music. Eventually, I am strongly eager to know which aspects of Chinese traditional culture arouse your curiosity most.
With your assistance, I will make full preparations for the meeting. Thanks again for your help. Looking forward to your reply.
Yours,
Li Hua
