A Florida teen is gaining national attention with her graduation speech and a basket of strawberries．“Care for some strawberries？”Brenda said at her graduation from Mulberry High School．After jokingly acknowledging there might not be enough，she went on，“These are not ordinary strawberries．”She held up a series of strawberries，revealing what each represents：sweat，dirt，aches，and pains．
Brenda described herself as the daughter of two tireless farmers who immigrated from Mexico and spent most of their days working in fields of strawberries，blueberries，and cucumbers．“My motivation has been rooted in my immigrant culture．”Because of this，she chose to focus on that in her address．“Many students used to be ashamed of their upbringing but today，we're proud of what makes us．”
She explained how she grew up under poor conditions．“I'm motivated by my parents' hands that lose feeling from labourious work．Despite the hot sun and body pains，they back me up heart and soul in my education，which weighs more strongly with me than anything else．I must work hard and succeed．”Brenda's heading to Stanford University this fall．She also credited some of her outstanding achievements to her teacher Higgins，who helps immigrant students and the poor．
Her speech has been viewed by thousands online．“Hearing it touched other people's hearts who said they understood my message，I'm struck the same，”Brenda said later．The principal of Mulberry High School，Michael Young，was one member of the audience getting emotional．“The speech was very powerful—her fruit did help paint a good picture of things she wanted to convey，”Young said．
As for her message to young people struggling，Brenda said，“Past circumstances aren't in charge of your future．If you're from a poor family，use every resource and try to better yourself．You're the author of your story．”
【语篇解读】 本文是一篇记叙文。佛罗里达州的Brenda在毕业演讲时借用一篮草莓，告诉人们生活是自己创造的，要努力让自己变得更好。
1．Why did Brenda bring strawberries to her graduation
A．To share her home-grown fruit．
B．To show hardship her parents faced．
C．To better illustrate her speech's topic．
D．To explain the importance of motivators．
√
C [推理判断题。根据第一段中的“These are not ordinary strawberries．”和“revealing what each represents：sweat，dirt，aches，and pains”可知，Brenda在告诉大家，她带来的草莓并不普通，每一个草莓分别代表汗水、泥土、疼痛和痛苦。因此，Brenda带草莓来参加毕业典礼是为了更好地诠释她演讲的主题。故选C。]
2．What affected Brenda most in terms of her academic success
A．Help from her teacher．
B．Her life experience．
C．Her native culture．
D．Support from her parents．
√
D [细节理解题。根据第三段中的“they back me up heart and soul in my education，which weighs more strongly with me than anything else”可知，Brenda的父母全心全意地支持着她的教育，这对Brenda来说比其他任何东西的影响都大。由此可知，对Brenda的学业成就影响最大的是她父母的支持。故选D。]
3．How did Brenda feel about the viewers' response online
A．Proud． B．Sympathetic．
C．Awkward． D．Moved．
D [细节理解题。根据倒数第二段中的“Hearing it touched other people's hearts who said they understood my message，I'm struck the same”可知，Brenda对观众在网上的反应与人们对她的演讲的反应一样心生感动。故选D。]
√
4．What did Brenda convey to the young
A．Life is what you make it．
B．Every cloud has a silver lining．
C．Everyone deserves a good life story．
D．Resources in hand decide your future．
√
A [推理判断题。根据最后一段中Brenda的话可知，她认为过去的境况并不能主宰你的未来，如果你来自一个贫困的家庭，那就利用一切资源努力让自己变得更好，你才是自己的故事的作者。由此推知，她想给年轻人传达的信息是“生活是你自己创造的”。故选A。]
Ⅳ．完形填空(共15小题；每小题1分，满分15分)

“He started a GoFundMe，he did yard work，he sold popcorn，and he raised about $2，500，”Stephon's mom said．“He really believes in the business．He doesn't realise that he is considered 6． (be) a role model，because of his decisions．He 7． (honest) doesn't let the business stop him from 8． (enjoy) his youth(青年时期)．He amazes me！”
to be
honestly
enjoying
“I believe Street Gamez can grow 9． (big) than I imagined，”said Stephon．
He recently spoke to a local business class in Tampa about his starting a business at such 10． young age．He said his motto (座右铭) is that he doesn't want to just play the game，he wants to change it．
【语篇解读】 本文是一篇记叙文。少年Stephon Sanders创办了一家移动游戏公司Street Gamez，成为很多人的榜样。
bigger
a
1．successful [考查词性转换。分析句子结构可知，设空处后是名词business，此处应用形容词successful“成功的”，修饰名词business，作定语，故填successful。]
2．that/which [考查定语从句。句意：他创办了Street Gamez，一家移动游戏公司，让像他这样的孩子成为企业家。分析句子结构可知，这是一个定语从句，先行词是business，关系词在从句中作主语，因此应用关系代词that或which，故填that/which。]
3．came [考查时态。句意：在妈妈问他过生日他需要什么时，Stephon提出了一个移动视频游戏公司的想法。动词短语come up with意为“想出，提出(计划、想法等)”，句子阐述过去的事实，应用一般过去时，故填came。]
4．him [考查代词。分析句子结构可知，此处应用代词him指代Stephon Sanders，作asked 的宾语，故填him。]
5．on [考查固定搭配。句意：在他的妈妈投资这家公司之前，Stephon靠自己筹集到了资金。固定搭配on one's own意为“靠自己的力量，独自地”，句中缺少介词on，故填on。]
6．to be [考查固定搭配。句意：他没有意识到，因为他的决定，他被认为是一个榜样。固定短语 be considered to be…意为“被认为是……”，故填to be。]
7．honestly [考查词性转换。句意：诚实地讲，他不会让生意妨碍他享受青春。 副词honestly意为“诚实地”，修饰动词doesn't let，作状语，故填honestly。]
8．enjoying [考查固定搭配。句意：诚实地讲，他不会让生意妨碍他享受青春。固定短语stop sb．from doing sth．意为“阻止某人做某事”，其中介词from 后应接名词或动词-ing形式，故填enjoying。]
9．bigger [考查形容词比较级。根据空格后的than 可知，此处指“更大”，是形容词比较级用法，应填bigger。]
10．a [考查冠词。age是可数名词，at a/an…age意为“在一个……的年纪”，young的发音以辅音音素开头，故填不定冠词a。]

A Florida teen is gaining national attention with her graduation speech and a basket of strawberries．“Care for some strawberries？” Brenda said at her graduation from Mulberry High School．After jokingly acknowledging there might not be enough，she went on，“These are not ordinary strawberries．” She held up a series of strawberries，revealing what each represents：sweat，dirt，aches，and pains．

As for her message to young people struggling，Brenda said，“Past circumstances aren't in charge of your future．If you're from a poor family，use every resource and try to better yourself．You're the author of your story．”

1．C [推理判断题。根据第一段中的“These are not ordinary strawberries．”和“revealing what each represents：sweat，dirt，aches，and pains” 可知，Brenda在告诉大家，她带来的草莓并不普通，每一个草莓分别代表汗水、泥土、疼痛和痛苦。因此，Brenda带草莓来参加毕业典礼是为了更好地诠释她演讲的主题。故选C。]

4．A [推理判断题。根据最后一段中Brenda的话可知，她认为过去的境况并不能主宰你的未来，如果你来自一个贫困的家庭，那就利用一切资源努力让自己变得更好，你才是自己的故事的作者。由此推知，她想给年轻人传达的信息是“生活是你自己创造的”。故选A。]
Ⅳ．【语篇解读】 本文是一篇夹叙夹议文。作者的妈妈是一名职业女性，在她的影响下，作者形成了积极的人生态度。
1．A [考查形容词词义辨析。根据下文中的“Kids whose mothers have jobs”和作者的经历可知，此处表示有工作的妈妈。故选A。]
2．B [考查名词词义辨析。根据语境和常识可知，有工作的妈妈的孩子坚守男性挣钱养家者和女性持家者的传统角色的可能性较小。breadwinner“挣钱养家的人”。故选B。]
3．C [考查副词词义辨析。有工作的妈妈的孩子或许(probably)在以后的生活中成功的可能性更大。故选C。]
4．D [考查动词词义辨析。根据语境，尤其是下文中的“To support my family，my mum．．．job．．．She my two sisters and me on her own．”可知，作者5岁那年，病魔夺走了她的父亲。rob“剥夺，使丧失”。故选D。]
5．A [考查动词词义辨析。根据上文中的“To support my family”可知，作者的妈妈找了一份全职工作。land“谋得(难得的工作、合约等)”。故选A。]

Ⅴ．【语篇解读】 本文是一篇记叙文。少年Stephon Sanders创办了一家移动游戏公司Street Gamez，成为很多人的榜样。
1．successful [考查词性转换。分析句子结构可知，设空处后是名词business，此处应用形容词successful“成功的”，修饰名词business，作定语，故填successful。]
2．that/which [考查定语从句。句意：他创办了Street Gamez，一家移动游戏公司，让像他这样的孩子成为企业家。分析句子结构可知，这是一个定语从句，先行词是business，关系词在从句中作主语，因此应用关系代词that或which，故填that/which。]
3．came [考查时态。句意：在妈妈问他过生日他需要什么时，Stephon提出了一个移动视频游戏公司的想法。动词短语come up with意为“想出，提出(计划、想法等)”，句子阐述过去的事实，应用一般过去时，故填came。]
4．him [考查代词。分析句子结构可知，此处应用代词him指代Stephon Sanders，作asked 的宾语，故填him。]
5．on [考查固定搭配。句意：在他的妈妈投资这家公司之前，Stephon靠自己筹集到了资金。固定搭配on one's own意为“靠自己的力量，独自地”，句中缺少介词on，故填on。]
6．to be [考查固定搭配。句意：他没有意识到，因为他的决定，他被认为是一个榜样。固定短语 be considered to be．．．意为“被认为是……”，故填to be。]
7．honestly [考查词性转换。句意：诚实地讲，他不会让生意妨碍他享受青春。 副词honestly意为“诚实地”，修饰动词doesn't let，作状语，故填honestly。]
8．enjoying [考查固定搭配。句意：诚实地讲，他不会让生意妨碍他享受青春。固定短语stop sb．from doing sth．意为“阻止某人做某事”，其中介词from 后应接名词或动词-ing形式，故填enjoying。]
9．bigger [考查形容词比较级。根据空格后的than 可知，此处指“更大”，是形容词比较级用法，应填bigger。]
10．a [考查冠词。age是可数名词，at a/an．．．age意为“在一个……的年纪”，young的发音以辅音音素开头，故填不定冠词a。]
