二．阅读理解（共4小题）
2． Every year in May，art galleries and museums prepare shows to honor Leonardo da Vinci，who died in France on May 2，1519.He is remembered as one of the most influential artists and creative thinkers of all time.His most famous and representative paintings are Mona Lisa and The Last Supper.
Recently，researchers have been studying a painting﹣Landscape 8 P，which they think is Da Vinci's earliest﹣known artwork.They used special lighting to study the artwork and discovered there are two images，not one.One drawing is on the back of the piece，which dates back to August 5，1473.
The drawing on the front was painted when Leonardo was 21 years old.It shows a river valley and a castle outside the city of Florence.There is little left of the drawing on the back，perhaps because it was wiped off.Only a bridge over a river can be seen.But there is writing on both sides.
The writing on the front gives the date and goes from right to left.Some people would call this "mirror writing".It's a way Leonardo often wrote in his notebooks.The writing on the back goes from left to right and tells about an agreement，probably to produce a work of art.
Cecilia Frosinini is an art historian.She said， "Leonardo was born left﹣handed，but was taught to write with his right hand from a very young age.By looking at his writing，we can see his right﹣handed handwriting is educated and well done."
Experts compared the two handwriting samples （样本） and said they were both made by Leonardo.They show he could write well using his left hand or his right hand.
The artwork is known as Landscape 8 P from its number in an art list.It will be part of an exhibition at the Uffizi Gallery in Italy.The gallery director，Eike Schmidt，said the artwork is worthy of our attention，and that by studying it，researchers gave us a new way of looking at Leonardo's drawing techniques and his abilities in writing.
（1）What does the writing on the back probably tell about？
A．A statement about the painting.
B．An agreement to produce a painting.
C．An introduction of Leonardo.
D．Something about the city of Florence.
（2）What can we learn about Leonardo from Cecilia's words？
A．He did bad in right﹣handed handwriting.
B．He wasn't good at writing with his left hand.
C．He could write with both of his hands.
D．He taught himself to write with the right hand.
（3）What's Eike Schmidt's attitude towards the research？
A．Unclear.
B．Indifferent.
C．Positive.
D．Doubtful.
3．When little kids line up for school picture day，there's the typical nervousness and joking as they get ready to show off their brightest smiles.Maybe they're wearing their best clothes or even sporting a new haircut.
But the children who sit in front of the camera as part of Project Picture Day are a special kind of subject.They're kids in low﹣income communities who get to be the focus of attention for maybe the very first time.
Jules Alonzo brainstormed with his professional photographer friend，Jen Campos，about a way they could combine a love for photography and working with children in poor areas around the world.They came up with a concept and，in 2015，they had a trial run in Africa，taking photos of kids at school.
"I had gone on a five﹣week volunteer project a few years back and still had connections there.We got in touch with a school director there who spoke English well and was happy to have us，" said Alonzo."It turned out to be a huge success." Since then，the non﹣profit organisation has reached 1，765 students in 14 schools in three countries.
The Project Picture Day team of four to six members goes into a school and sets up two stations with a camera，a tripod（三脚架），and so on.Campos decides where the best spots will be ﹣ whether inside or outside the classroom or school.Then the team spends two or three days photographing the students and editing and printing their photos.They also take a class photo and faculty pictures.On the final day，each student receives a 4×6 school portrait.
"The majority of the students laugh.It's funny and maybe even embarrassing seeing a photo of yourself.They love to show their peers and everyone gets a good laugh，" said Alonzo.
"There's a sense of pride.What we didn't expect and love to see is，sometimes the students will exchange photos with their best friends.It's actually really cute.Others run to their parents to show them.Honestly，the reactions are the best part of all of this."
（1）In what aspect are children lining up for Project Picture Day special？
A．They are too nervous.
B．They are smiling happily.
C．They are from poor areas.
D．They are informally﹣dressed.
（2）What do the underlined words "a concept" refer to？
A．A project to help poor kids complete their education.
B．A project to help children know the world more and better.
C．A project to help children dreaming of becoming film stars.
D．A project to help children who have few chances to take a photo.
（3）What do we know about their trial run of Project Picture Day？
A．It lasted five days.
B．The place was in Asia.
C．It was not very successful.
D．They chose a school whose director spoke English well.
（4）What does the author intend to tell us in Paragraph 5？
A．What they do in a school.
B．Who are to be taken photos of.
C．Why the organization is not for profit.
D．How they are warmly received in schools.
4．Author Walter Dean Myers died at the age of 76 after a brief illness.Walter Dean Myers was the author of more than 100 books for children and young adults and received many top awards.
The prolific author was loved for his vivid description of the lives of African American children，and for writing books for young people that covered different subjects."Myers has written about all those subjects with deep understanding and a hard﹣won，qualified sense of hope，" said Leonard S.Marcus in 2008.
He was born in 1937 and was adopted by Florence Dean and Herbert after his mother died while giving birth to his younger sister.They loved him very much and his mother read to him from a very young age.Reading pushed him to discover worlds beyond his landscape.
He began writing at an early age.He wrote well in high school and an English teacher recognized this and advised him to keep on writing no matter what happened to him."It's what you do，" she said.
He dropped out of high school at 17 and joined the army.After finishing his service，he entered a dark period in his life.Myers began writing at night to pull himself through that miserable time.
In an essay published in The New York Times earlier this year，Myers described how a short story by James Arthur Baldwin helped change the course of his life."I didn't love the story，but I was lifted by it，"he wrote，"for it took place in Harlem，and it was a story concerned with black people like those I knew.By humanizing the people who were like me，Baldwin's story also humanized me.The story gave me a permission that I didn't know I needed，the permission to write about my own landscape，my own map."
"I write books or the troubled boy I once was，" he wrote，"and for the boy who lives within me still."
（1）What does the second paragraph mainly talk about？
A．How popular Myers was.
B．How Myers became successful.
C．What makes Myers' works popular.
D．What people think of Myers' works.
（2）Who discovered Myers' writing talent？
A．James Arthur Baldwin.
B．His mother.
C．Leonard S.Marcus.
D．One of his teachers.
（3）What does the underlined word "prolific" in Paragraph 2 probably mean？
A．Productive.
B．Unfortunate.
C．Conservative.
D．Humorous.

A．It helped him survive the dark period.
B．It inspired him to pursue his writing career.

The man，Bob，was alone when he left his Michigan farmhouse on New Year's Eve to collect firewood.Expecting a journey of only several meters，Bob was wearing just long johns（衬裤），a shirt and slippers，although the temperature was around ﹣4℃.

Bob's companion kept him warm.She licked his face and hands to keep him awake."Kelsey kept barking but never left my side，" Bob recalled. "She kept me warm.I knew I couldn't give up and that it was my choice to stay alive."
Bob spent 19 hours in the freezing cold.When he finally lost consciousness，his dog kept barking.Finally，hearing the barking，Bob's neighbor discovered him at 6：30 pm.on New Year's Day and called the emergency services at once.When Bob arrived at hospital，his body temperature was below 21℃.However，doctors were surprised to find that he didn't have any frostbite（冻疮）.They believed it was because of Kelsey's determination to keep him warm，Dr.Chaim Colen，who treated Bob said，"Animals can help and his dog really saved him...He was very fortunate."

三．信息匹配（共1小题）
6． Leonardo da Vinci is often thought of mainly as an artist，with world﹣famous works like The Last Supper and Mona Lisa. （1） But his notebooks，filled with his strange writing，show that his main interests were in engineering and technology.
（2） If his pioneering work on anatomy （解剖学） is also taken into consideration，it is not hard to see why Leonardo is considered to be one of the greatest geniuses of all time.
Born in 1452 to a Florentine lawyer and a local village girl，Leonardo was given only a very basic education.After ten years in the workshop of the artist Verrocchio，he began to work for himself.The work he did shows an unbelievable combination of technical skill and very careful observation. （3）
At the age of thirty，he left his hometown and moved to Milan，where he spent seventeen years working for the Duke of Milan. （4） In fact，his paintings were increasingly influenced by his interest in mathematics.During this period，he painted The Last Supper and developed his ideas for chemical weapons.
In 1506 he returned to Milan and became increasingly interested in science. （5） He also studied many other animals，comparing their bodies to the human body.From then on，Leonardo spent the rest of his life mainly on his scientific studies.
A.Before long，he returned to his paintings.
B.Of course，his place in art history is certain.
C.It also shows his great interest in technology.
D.The notebooks are full of drawings for all kinds of inventions.

F.Here he continued to combine his scientific work with his paintings.
G.It was a good chance to make some money with his new inventions.

The endgame changes when you're trying to make art for money and it feels like you're not making art any more.The work is so much（7） interesting when you're doing it for the love of making art.With my audio﹣visual project，it's completely for the love of it （8） that's what makes it so pure.
You may （9） （constant） feel like you're trying to make this kind of life work.By always trying to put your energy into it，sometimes you neglect（忽视） other aspects of your life.That can be difficult.But I always knew this was （10） I needed to do.

14．阅读下面短文，根据其内容写一篇60词左右的内容概要.
Throughout history，music spread among people of different cultures.In today's technologically advanced society，however，people spread music online，sometimes without an artist's permission.This can lead to many problems，and music companies are now dealing with this practice.Sharing music online without permission is theft （盗窃）.
Sharing music online prevents recording companies from making money from their efforts.They say that sharing music online has resulted in a huge drop in profits and sales over the past 10 years.People who find music for free online are not paying for CDs or every MP3 downloaded.To truly understand the influence of music piracy （盗版）on creators，one must understand how many people are involved in the recording process.For the sale of each album，profits must be shared between musicians，sound engineers，music producers，managers，advertisers，and the company selling the product.Many people believe sharing music only affects the recording artist，but the reality is that sharing hurts business for all companies involved.
There are many people who don't see the harm in sharing music online and even think they have the right to do it.One online blogger states that he originally paid for an entire CD and that he should be able to do with the material whatever he wants.While he may have legally paid for the music，he does not have the right to provide permission，which means people like the blogger are thieves.
Although we don't spread today's music the same way we did before，there's no doubt that people around the world love to share music.However，Internet piracy would prevent musicians from continuing producing albums for fear of theft.Therefore，if people want to continue listening to their favorite artists，they need to buy their music so that artists will make enough profit to continue their music careers.

2． Every year in May，art galleries and museums prepare shows to honor Leonardo da Vinci，who died in France on May 2，1519.He is remembered as one of the most influential artists and creative thinkers of all time.His most famous and representative paintings are Mona Lisa and The Last Supper.
Recently，researchers have been studying a painting﹣Landscape 8 P，which they think is Da Vinci's earliest﹣known artwork.They used special lighting to study the artwork and discovered there are two images，not one.One drawing is on the back of the piece，which dates back to August 5，1473.
The drawing on the front was painted when Leonardo was 21 years old.It shows a river valley and a castle outside the city of Florence.There is little left of the drawing on the back，perhaps because it was wiped off.Only a bridge over a river can be seen.But there is writing on both sides.
The writing on the front gives the date and goes from right to left.Some people would call this "mirror writing".It's a way Leonardo often wrote in his notebooks.The writing on the back goes from left to right and tells about an agreement，probably to produce a work of art.
Cecilia Frosinini is an art historian.She said， "Leonardo was born left﹣handed，but was taught to write with his right hand from a very young age.By looking at his writing，we can see his right﹣handed handwriting is educated and well done."
Experts compared the two handwriting samples （样本） and said they were both made by Leonardo.They show he could write well using his left hand or his right hand.
The artwork is known as Landscape 8 P from its number in an art list.It will be part of an exhibition at the Uffizi Gallery in Italy.The gallery director，Eike Schmidt，said the artwork is worthy of our attention，and that by studying it，researchers gave us a new way of looking at Leonardo's drawing techniques and his abilities in writing.
（1）What does the writing on the back probably tell about？ B
A．A statement about the painting.
B．An agreement to produce a painting.
C．An introduction of Leonardo.
D．Something about the city of Florence.
（2）What can we learn about Leonardo from Cecilia's words？ C
A．He did bad in right﹣handed handwriting.
B．He wasn't good at writing with his left hand.
C．He could write with both of his hands.
D．He taught himself to write with the right hand.
（3）What's Eike Schmidt's attitude towards the research？ C
A．Unclear.
B．Indifferent.
C．Positive.
D．Doubtful.

【分析】这是一篇说明文。文章说明了最近研究人员一直在研究达 芬奇已知的最早的艺术品Landscape 8 P，并发现里面有两张图象，专家们比较了这两种笔迹样本，称它们都是达 芬奇所作。有人认为研究人员通过研究这些画，为我们了解列奥纳多的绘画技巧和写作能力提供了一种新的方式。
【解答】（1）B.细节理解题。根据第四段中的The writing on the back goes from left to right and tells about an agreement，probably to produce a work of art.（背面的文字从左往右写着一份协议，可能是要创作一件艺术品。）可知，背面的文字可能是一份创作一幅画的协议。故选B.
（2）C.推理判断题。根据第五段中的She said，"Leonardo was born left﹣handed，but was taught to write with his right hand from a very young age.By looking at his writing，we can see his right﹣handed handwriting is educated and well done."她说："莱昂纳多生来就是左撇子，但从小就学会用右手写字。通过观察他的笔迹，我们可以看出他的右手笔迹受过训练，而且做得很好。可知，达 芬奇能用两只手写字。故选C.
（3）C.推理判断题。根据最后一段中的The gallery director，Eike Schmidt，said the drawing is worthy of our attention，and that by studying it，researchers gave us a new way of looking at Leonardo's drawing techniques and his abilities in writing.美术馆馆长Eike Schmidt说，研究人员通过研究这件艺术作品为我们了解达 芬奇的绘画技巧和书写才能提供了一种新的方式。由此推断Eike Schmidt对这项研究的态度是积极肯定的。A.Unclear不清楚的；B.Indifferent漠不关心的；C.Positive积极地；D.Doubtful怀疑的。故选C.

3．When little kids line up for school picture day，there's the typical nervousness and joking as they get ready to show off their brightest smiles.Maybe they're wearing their best clothes or even sporting a new haircut.
But the children who sit in front of the camera as part of Project Picture Day are a special kind of subject.They're kids in low﹣income communities who get to be the focus of attention for maybe the very first time.
Jules Alonzo brainstormed with his professional photographer friend，Jen Campos，about a way they could combine a love for photography and working with children in poor areas around the world.They came up with a concept and，in 2015，they had a trial run in Africa，taking photos of kids at school.
"I had gone on a five﹣week volunteer project a few years back and still had connections there.We got in touch with a school director there who spoke English well and was happy to have us，" said Alonzo."It turned out to be a huge success." Since then，the non﹣profit organisation has reached 1，765 students in 14 schools in three countries.
The Project Picture Day team of four to six members goes into a school and sets up two stations with a camera，a tripod（三脚架），and so on.Campos decides where the best spots will be ﹣ whether inside or outside the classroom or school.Then the team spends two or three days photographing the students and editing and printing their photos.They also take a class photo and faculty pictures.On the final day，each student receives a 4×6 school portrait.
"The majority of the students laugh.It's funny and maybe even embarrassing seeing a photo of yourself.They love to show their peers and everyone gets a good laugh，" said Alonzo.
"There's a sense of pride.What we didn't expect and love to see is，sometimes the students will exchange photos with their best friends.It's actually really cute.Others run to their parents to show them.Honestly，the reactions are the best part of all of this."
（1）In what aspect are children lining up for Project Picture Day special？ C
A．They are too nervous.
B．They are smiling happily.
C．They are from poor areas.
D．They are informally﹣dressed.
（2）What do the underlined words "a concept" refer to？ D
A．A project to help poor kids complete their education.
B．A project to help children know the world more and better.
C．A project to help children dreaming of becoming film stars.
D．A project to help children who have few chances to take a photo.
（3）What do we know about their trial run of Project Picture Day？ D
A．It lasted five days.
B．The place was in Asia.
C．It was not very successful.
D．They chose a school whose director spoke English well.
（4）What does the author intend to tell us in Paragraph 5？ A
A．What they do in a school.
B．Who are to be taken photos of.
C．Why the organization is not for profit.
D．How they are warmly received in schools.

4．Author Walter Dean Myers died at the age of 76 after a brief illness.Walter Dean Myers was the author of more than 100 books for children and young adults and received many top awards.

He dropped out of high school at 17 and joined the army.After finishing his service，he entered a dark period in his life.Myers began writing at night to pull himself through that miserable time.
In an essay published in The New York Times earlier this year，Myers described how a short story by James Arthur Baldwin helped change the course of his life."I didn't love the story，but I was lifted by it，"he wrote，"for it took place in Harlem，and it was a story concerned with black people like those I knew.By humanizing the people who were like me，Baldwin's story also humanized me.The story gave me a permission that I didn't know I needed，the permission to write about my own landscape，my own map."
"I write books or the troubled boy I once was，" he wrote，"and for the boy who lives within me still."

14．阅读下面短文，根据其内容写一篇60词左右的内容概要.
Throughout history，music spread among people of different cultures.In today's technologically advanced society，however，people spread music online，sometimes without an artist's permission.This can lead to many problems，and music companies are now dealing with this practice.Sharing music online without permission is theft （盗窃）.
Sharing music online prevents recording companies from making money from their efforts.They say that sharing music online has resulted in a huge drop in profits and sales over the past 10 years.People who find music for free online are not paying for CDs or every MP3 downloaded.To truly understand the influence of music piracy （盗版）on creators，one must understand how many people are involved in the recording process.For the sale of each album，profits must be shared between musicians，sound engineers，music producers，managers，advertisers，and the company selling the product.Many people believe sharing music only affects the recording artist，but the reality is that sharing hurts business for all companies involved.
There are many people who don't see the harm in sharing music online and even think they have the right to do it.One online blogger states that he originally paid for an entire CD and that he should be able to do with the material whatever he wants.While he may have legally paid for the music，he does not have the right to provide permission，which means people like the blogger are thieves.
Although we don't spread today's music the same way we did before，there's no doubt that people around the world love to share music.However，Internet piracy would prevent musicians from continuing producing albums for fear of theft.Therefore，if people want to continue listening to their favorite artists，they need to buy their music so that artists will make enough profit to continue their music careers.
【答案】Sharing music online without permissionis in fact a theft，which can cause many problems.It mainly affect therecording companies，preventing them from making money from their efforts.However，many people don't see the bad effects，and some of them even thinkthey have the right to do that.So，to continue listening to their favoriteartists，people need to buy their music so that artists will make enoughprofits to continue their music careers.
【分析】本文为说明文。文章介绍未经许可在网上共享音乐的危害，和我们应该怎么做。
高分句型一：Sharing music online without permission is in fact a theft，which can cause many problems.
译文：未经允许在线共享音乐实际上是一种盗窃行为，这可能会导致许多问题。
分析：这句话使用which引导非限制性定语从句。
高分句型二：So，to continue listening to their favorite artists，people need to buy their music so that artists will make enough profits to continue their music careers.
译文：因此，要继续聆听他们喜爱的艺术家的音乐，人们需要购买他们的音乐，这样艺术家才能获得足够的利润，继续他们的音乐事业。
分析：这句话使用不定式作目的状语，so that引导结果状语从句。
【解答】Sharing music online without permissionis in fact a theft，which can cause many problems.【高分句型一】（未经许可在网上共享音乐是一种盗窃行为，会导致很多问题。） It mainly affect therecording companies，preventing them from making money from their efforts.（在网上分享音乐阻止了唱片公司从他们的努力中赚钱。） However，many people don't see the bad effects，and some of them even thinkthey have the right to do that. （有许多人没有看到网上分享音乐的危害，甚至认为他们有权利这样做。）So，to continue listening to their favoriteartists，people need to buy their music so that artists will make enoughprofits to continue their music careers.【高分句型二】（人们需要购买他们的音乐，这样艺术家才能获得足够的利润来继续他们的音乐事业）
【点评】概要写作，简言之就是对所读过的文章简要概括，写出文章的中心大意，也可称之为摘要。写概要时，读者要是把文章的具体信息用一些具有概括功能的词和句表述出来，而不是抄袭文章的原句，更不是把细节性信息作为中心，而是要通过对文章中的单词、词组和句子进行合理转换，对文章的具体信息进行概括，再用合适的语言表述出来。这一题型主要考查学生对文章主旨大意的概括和准确获取关键词的能力，同时考查学生用简洁的语言概括文章重要信息的能力以及对文章整体结构的把握能力。因此，概要写作是基于阅读理解和书面表达，是二者的有机结合体，是阅读理解和书面表达的沟通桥梁。

二．阅读理解（共4小题）
2． Every year in May，art galleries and museums prepare shows to honor Leonardo da Vinci，who died in France on May 2，1519.He is remembered as one of the most influential artists and creative thinkers of all time.His most famous and representative paintings are Mona Lisa and The Last Supper.
Recently，researchers have been studying a painting﹣Landscape 8 P，which they think is Da Vinci's earliest﹣known artwork.They used special lighting to study the artwork and discovered there are two images，not one.One drawing is on the back of the piece，which dates back to August 5，1473.
The drawing on the front was painted when Leonardo was 21 years old.It shows a river valley and a castle outside the city of Florence.There is little left of the drawing on the back，perhaps because it was wiped off.Only a bridge over a river can be seen.But there is writing on both sides.
The writing on the front gives the date and goes from right to left.Some people would call this "mirror writing".It's a way Leonardo often wrote in his notebooks.The writing on the back goes from left to right and tells about an agreement，probably to produce a work of art.
Cecilia Frosinini is an art historian.She said， "Leonardo was born left﹣handed，but was taught to write with his right hand from a very young age.By looking at his writing，we can see his right﹣handed handwriting is educated and well done."
Experts compared the two handwriting samples （样本） and said they were both made by Leonardo.They show he could write well using his left hand or his right hand.
The artwork is known as Landscape 8 P from its number in an art list.It will be part of an exhibition at the Uffizi Gallery in Italy.The gallery director，Eike Schmidt，said the artwork is worthy of our attention，and that by studying it，researchers gave us a new way of looking at Leonardo's drawing techniques and his abilities in writing.
（1）What does the writing on the back probably tell about？
A．A statement about the painting.
B．An agreement to produce a painting.
C．An introduction of Leonardo.
D．Something about the city of Florence.
（2）What can we learn about Leonardo from Cecilia's words？
A．He did bad in right﹣handed handwriting.
B．He wasn't good at writing with his left hand.
C．He could write with both of his hands.
D．He taught himself to write with the right hand.
（3）What's Eike Schmidt's attitude towards the research？
A．Unclear.
B．Indifferent.
C．Positive.
D．Doubtful.
3．When little kids line up for school picture day，there's the typical nervousness and joking as they get ready to show off their brightest smiles.Maybe they're wearing their best clothes or even sporting a new haircut.
But the children who sit in front of the camera as part of Project Picture Day are a special kind of subject.They're kids in low﹣income communities who get to be the focus of attention for maybe the very first time.
Jules Alonzo brainstormed with his professional photographer friend，Jen Campos，about a way they could combine a love for photography and working with children in poor areas around the world.They came up with a concept and，in 2015，they had a trial run in Africa，taking photos of kids at school.
"I had gone on a five﹣week volunteer project a few years back and still had connections there.We got in touch with a school director there who spoke English well and was happy to have us，" said Alonzo."It turned out to be a huge success." Since then，the non﹣profit organisation has reached 1，765 students in 14 schools in three countries.
The Project Picture Day team of four to six members goes into a school and sets up two stations with a camera，a tripod（三脚架），and so on.Campos decides where the best spots will be ﹣ whether inside or outside the classroom or school.Then the team spends two or three days photographing the students and editing and printing their photos.They also take a class photo and faculty pictures.On the final day，each student receives a 4×6 school portrait.
"The majority of the students laugh.It's funny and maybe even embarrassing seeing a photo of yourself.They love to show their peers and everyone gets a good laugh，" said Alonzo.
"There's a sense of pride.What we didn't expect and love to see is，sometimes the students will exchange photos with their best friends.It's actually really cute.Others run to their parents to show them.Honestly，the reactions are the best part of all of this."
（1）In what aspect are children lining up for Project Picture Day special？
A．They are too nervous.
B．They are smiling happily.
C．They are from poor areas.
D．They are informally﹣dressed.
（2）What do the underlined words "a concept" refer to？
A．A project to help poor kids complete their education.
B．A project to help children know the world more and better.
C．A project to help children dreaming of becoming film stars.
D．A project to help children who have few chances to take a photo.
（3）What do we know about their trial run of Project Picture Day？
A．It lasted five days.
B．The place was in Asia.
C．It was not very successful.
D．They chose a school whose director spoke English well.
（4）What does the author intend to tell us in Paragraph 5？
A．What they do in a school.
B．Who are to be taken photos of.
C．Why the organization is not for profit.
D．How they are warmly received in schools.
4．Author Walter Dean Myers died at the age of 76 after a brief illness.Walter Dean Myers was the author of more than 100 books for children and young adults and received many top awards.
The prolific author was loved for his vivid description of the lives of African American children，and for writing books for young people that covered different subjects."Myers has written about all those subjects with deep understanding and a hard﹣won，qualified sense of hope，" said Leonard S.Marcus in 2008.
He was born in 1937 and was adopted by Florence Dean and Herbert after his mother died while giving birth to his younger sister.They loved him very much and his mother read to him from a very young age.Reading pushed him to discover worlds beyond his landscape.
He began writing at an early age.He wrote well in high school and an English teacher recognized this and advised him to keep on writing no matter what happened to him."It's what you do，" she said.
He dropped out of high school at 17 and joined the army.After finishing his service，he entered a dark period in his life.Myers began writing at night to pull himself through that miserable time.
In an essay published in The New York Times earlier this year，Myers described how a short story by James Arthur Baldwin helped change the course of his life."I didn't love the story，but I was lifted by it，"he wrote，"for it took place in Harlem，and it was a story concerned with black people like those I knew.By humanizing the people who were like me，Baldwin's story also humanized me.The story gave me a permission that I didn't know I needed，the permission to write about my own landscape，my own map."
"I write books or the troubled boy I once was，" he wrote，"and for the boy who lives within me still."
（1）What does the second paragraph mainly talk about？
A．How popular Myers was.
B．How Myers became successful.
C．What makes Myers' works popular.
D．What people think of Myers' works.
（2）Who discovered Myers' writing talent？
A．James Arthur Baldwin.
B．His mother.
C．Leonard S.Marcus.
D．One of his teachers.

A．Productive.
B．Unfortunate.
C．Conservative.

Bob's companion kept him warm.She licked his face and hands to keep him awake."Kelsey kept barking but never left my side，" Bob recalled. "She kept me warm.I knew I couldn't give up and that it was my choice to stay alive."
Bob spent 19 hours in the freezing cold.When he finally lost consciousness，his dog kept barking.Finally，hearing the barking，Bob's neighbor discovered him at 6：30 pm.on New Year's Day and called the emergency services at once.When Bob arrived at hospital，his body temperature was below 21℃.However，doctors were surprised to find that he didn't have any frostbite（冻疮）.They believed it was because of Kelsey's determination to keep him warm，Dr.Chaim Colen，who treated Bob said，"Animals can help and his dog really saved him...He was very fortunate."

6． Leonardo da Vinci is often thought of mainly as an artist，with world﹣famous works like The Last Supper and Mona Lisa. （1） But his notebooks，filled with his strange writing，show that his main interests were in engineering and technology.
（2） If his pioneering work on anatomy （解剖学） is also taken into consideration，it is not hard to see why Leonardo is considered to be one of the greatest geniuses of all time.
Born in 1452 to a Florentine lawyer and a local village girl，Leonardo was given only a very basic education.After ten years in the workshop of the artist Verrocchio，he began to work for himself.The work he did shows an unbelievable combination of technical skill and very careful observation. （3）
At the age of thirty，he left his hometown and moved to Milan，where he spent seventeen years working for the Duke of Milan. （4） In fact，his paintings were increasingly influenced by his interest in mathematics.During this period，he painted The Last Supper and developed his ideas for chemical weapons.
In 1506 he returned to Milan and became increasingly interested in science. （5） He also studied many other animals，comparing their bodies to the human body.From then on，Leonardo spent the rest of his life mainly on his scientific studies.
A.Before long，he returned to his paintings.
B.Of course，his place in art history is certain.
C.It also shows his great interest in technology.
D.The notebooks are full of drawings for all kinds of inventions.
E.He began to study human bodies and the movement of the blood.
F.Here he continued to combine his scientific work with his paintings.
G.It was a good chance to make some money with his new inventions.

二．阅读理解（共4小题）
2． Every year in May，art galleries and museums prepare shows to honor Leonardo da Vinci，who died in France on May 2，1519.He is remembered as one of the most influential artists and creative thinkers of all time.His most famous and representative paintings are Mona Lisa and The Last Supper.
Recently，researchers have been studying a painting﹣Landscape 8 P，which they think is Da Vinci's earliest﹣known artwork.They used special lighting to study the artwork and discovered there are two images，not one.One drawing is on the back of the piece，which dates back to August 5，1473.
The drawing on the front was painted when Leonardo was 21 years old.It shows a river valley and a castle outside the city of Florence.There is little left of the drawing on the back，perhaps because it was wiped off.Only a bridge over a river can be seen.But there is writing on both sides.
The writing on the front gives the date and goes from right to left.Some people would call this "mirror writing".It's a way Leonardo often wrote in his notebooks.The writing on the back goes from left to right and tells about an agreement，probably to produce a work of art.
Cecilia Frosinini is an art historian.She said， "Leonardo was born left﹣handed，but was taught to write with his right hand from a very young age.By looking at his writing，we can see his right﹣handed handwriting is educated and well done."
Experts compared the two handwriting samples （样本） and said they were both made by Leonardo.They show he could write well using his left hand or his right hand.
The artwork is known as Landscape 8 P from its number in an art list.It will be part of an exhibition at the Uffizi Gallery in Italy.The gallery director，Eike Schmidt，said the artwork is worthy of our attention，and that by studying it，researchers gave us a new way of looking at Leonardo's drawing techniques and his abilities in writing.
（1）What does the writing on the back probably tell about？ B
A．A statement about the painting.
B．An agreement to produce a painting.
C．An introduction of Leonardo.
D．Something about the city of Florence.
（2）What can we learn about Leonardo from Cecilia's words？ C
A．He did bad in right﹣handed handwriting.
B．He wasn't good at writing with his left hand.
C．He could write with both of his hands.
D．He taught himself to write with the right hand.
（3）What's Eike Schmidt's attitude towards the research？ C
A．Unclear.
B．Indifferent.
C．Positive.
D．Doubtful.
【答案】见试题解答内容
【分析】这是一篇说明文。文章说明了最近研究人员一直在研究达 芬奇已知的最早的艺术品Landscape 8 P，并发现里面有两张图象，专家们比较了这两种笔迹样本，称它们都是达 芬奇所作。有人认为研究人员通过研究这些画，为我们了解列奥纳多的绘画技巧和写作能力提供了一种新的方式。
【解答】（1）B.细节理解题。根据第四段中的The writing on the back goes from left to right and tells about an agreement，probably to produce a work of art.（背面的文字从左往右写着一份协议，可能是要创作一件艺术品。）可知，背面的文字可能是一份创作一幅画的协议。故选B.
（2）C.推理判断题。根据第五段中的She said，"Leonardo was born left﹣handed，but was taught to write with his right hand from a very young age.By looking at his writing，we can see his right﹣handed handwriting is educated and well done."她说："莱昂纳多生来就是左撇子，但从小就学会用右手写字。通过观察他的笔迹，我们可以看出他的右手笔迹受过训练，而且做得很好。可知，达 芬奇能用两只手写字。故选C.
（3）C.推理判断题。根据最后一段中的The gallery director，Eike Schmidt，said the drawing is worthy of our attention，and that by studying it，researchers gave us a new way of looking at Leonardo's drawing techniques and his abilities in writing.美术馆馆长Eike Schmidt说，研究人员通过研究这件艺术作品为我们了解达 芬奇的绘画技巧和书写才能提供了一种新的方式。由此推断Eike Schmidt对这项研究的态度是积极肯定的。A.Unclear不清楚的；B.Indifferent漠不关心的；C.Positive积极地；D.Doubtful怀疑的。故选C.

3．When little kids line up for school picture day，there's the typical nervousness and joking as they get ready to show off their brightest smiles.Maybe they're wearing their best clothes or even sporting a new haircut.
But the children who sit in front of the camera as part of Project Picture Day are a special kind of subject.They're kids in low﹣income communities who get to be the focus of attention for maybe the very first time.
Jules Alonzo brainstormed with his professional photographer friend，Jen Campos，about a way they could combine a love for photography and working with children in poor areas around the world.They came up with a concept and，in 2015，they had a trial run in Africa，taking photos of kids at school.
"I had gone on a five﹣week volunteer project a few years back and still had connections there.We got in touch with a school director there who spoke English well and was happy to have us，" said Alonzo."It turned out to be a huge success." Since then，the non﹣profit organisation has reached 1，765 students in 14 schools in three countries.
The Project Picture Day team of four to six members goes into a school and sets up two stations with a camera，a tripod（三脚架），and so on.Campos decides where the best spots will be ﹣ whether inside or outside the classroom or school.Then the team spends two or three days photographing the students and editing and printing their photos.They also take a class photo and faculty pictures.On the final day，each student receives a 4×6 school portrait.
"The majority of the students laugh.It's funny and maybe even embarrassing seeing a photo of yourself.They love to show their peers and everyone gets a good laugh，" said Alonzo.
"There's a sense of pride.What we didn't expect and love to see is，sometimes the students will exchange photos with their best friends.It's actually really cute.Others run to their parents to show them.Honestly，the reactions are the best part of all of this."
（1）In what aspect are children lining up for Project Picture Day special？ C
A．They are too nervous.
B．They are smiling happily.
C．They are from poor areas.
D．They are informally﹣dressed.
（2）What do the underlined words "a concept" refer to？ D
A．A project to help poor kids complete their education.
B．A project to help children know the world more and better.
C．A project to help children dreaming of becoming film stars.
D．A project to help children who have few chances to take a photo.
（3）What do we know about their trial run of Project Picture Day？ D
A．It lasted five days.
B．The place was in Asia.
C．It was not very successful.
D．They chose a school whose director spoke English well.
（4）What does the author intend to tell us in Paragraph 5？ A
A．What they do in a school.
B．Who are to be taken photos of.
C．Why the organization is not for profit.

4．Author Walter Dean Myers died at the age of 76 after a brief illness.Walter Dean Myers was the author of more than 100 books for children and young adults and received many top awards.

【解答】（1）to do.考查动词不定式。句意：我一直知道我的梦想是拍电影。主语为my dream，故用动词不定式作is的表语，故填to do。
（2）making.考查动名词。句意：毕业后，我继续为朋友们制作音乐视频，并慢慢地开始为他们获得越来越多的报酬，但我总是不得不在兼职工作之间取得平衡。go on doing表示"继续做某事"，用动名词作宾语，故填making。
（3）paid.考查动词语态。句意：毕业后，我继续为朋友们制作音乐视频，并慢慢地开始为他们获得越来越多的报酬，但我总是不得不在兼职工作之间取得平衡。主语I与pay之间是被动关系，且空前有get，故用过去分词形式，故填paid。
（4）are expected.考查动词时态、语态及主谓一致。句意：不幸的是，人们一开始就被要求免费工作，这是当今艺术世界的本质。结合句意可知，此处在讲述客观事实，句子用一般现在时，主语为people，谓语动词用复数形式，且与expect之间是被动关系，故填are expected。
（5）an.考查冠词。句意：作为一名艺术家，要想生存下去可能很难赚钱，但我学会了将自己的创意作品与商业项目分开，我这样做是为了资助那些不需要付钱的东西。结合句意可知，此处表示泛指，故用不定冠词，artist为元音音素开头的单词，故填an。
（6）projects.考查可数名词的复数。句意：作为一名艺术家，要想生存下去可能很难赚钱，但我学会了将自己的创意作品与商业项目分开，我这样做是为了资助那些不需要付钱的东西。结合句意可知，此处表示不止一个项目，故用名词的复数形式，故填projects。
（7）more.考查比较级。句意：当你出于对艺术的热爱而创作时，这件作品会更加有趣。结合句意和much可知，此处用比较级，故填more。
（8）and.考查连词。句意：我的视听项目完全出于对它的热爱，这就是它如此纯净的原因。结合句意可知，前后为递进关系，故填and。
（9）constantly.考查副词。句意：你可能会一直觉得自己在努力让这种生活变得有意义。此处用副词作状语修饰feel，故填constantly。
（10）what.考查表语从句。句意：但我一直知道这是我需要做的。此处引导was的表语从句，从句中缺少do的宾语，表示"要做的事情"，故填what。

14．阅读下面短文，根据其内容写一篇60词左右的内容概要.
Throughout history，music spread among people of different cultures.In today's technologically advanced society，however，people spread music online，sometimes without an artist's permission.This can lead to many problems，and music companies are now dealing with this practice.Sharing music online without permission is theft （盗窃）.
Sharing music online prevents recording companies from making money from their efforts.They say that sharing music online has resulted in a huge drop in profits and sales over the past 10 years.People who find music for free online are not paying for CDs or every MP3 downloaded.To truly understand the influence of music piracy （盗版）on creators，one must understand how many people are involved in the recording process.For the sale of each album，profits must be shared between musicians，sound engineers，music producers，managers，advertisers，and the company selling the product.Many people believe sharing music only affects the recording artist，but the reality is that sharing hurts business for all companies involved.
There are many people who don't see the harm in sharing music online and even think they have the right to do it.One online blogger states that he originally paid for an entire CD and that he should be able to do with the material whatever he wants.While he may have legally paid for the music，he does not have the right to provide permission，which means people like the blogger are thieves.
Although we don't spread today's music the same way we did before，there's no doubt that people around the world love to share music.However，Internet piracy would prevent musicians from continuing producing albums for fear of theft.Therefore，if people want to continue listening to their favorite artists，they need to buy their music so that artists will make enough profit to continue their music careers.
【答案】Sharing music online without permissionis in fact a theft，which can cause many problems.It mainly affect therecording companies，preventing them from making money from their efforts.However，many people don't see the bad effects，and some of them even thinkthey have the right to do that.So，to continue listening to their favoriteartists，people need to buy their music so that artists will make enoughprofits to continue their music careers.
【分析】本文为说明文。文章介绍未经许可在网上共享音乐的危害，和我们应该怎么做。
高分句型一：Sharing music online without permission is in fact a theft，which can cause many problems.
译文：未经允许在线共享音乐实际上是一种盗窃行为，这可能会导致许多问题。
分析：这句话使用which引导非限制性定语从句。
高分句型二：So，to continue listening to their favorite artists，people need to buy their music so that artists will make enough profits to continue their music careers.
译文：因此，要继续聆听他们喜爱的艺术家的音乐，人们需要购买他们的音乐，这样艺术家才能获得足够的利润，继续他们的音乐事业。
分析：这句话使用不定式作目的状语，so that引导结果状语从句。
【解答】Sharing music online without permissionis in fact a theft，which can cause many problems.【高分句型一】（未经许可在网上共享音乐是一种盗窃行为，会导致很多问题。） It mainly affect therecording companies，preventing them from making money from their efforts.（在网上分享音乐阻止了唱片公司从他们的努力中赚钱。） However，many people don't see the bad effects，and some of them even thinkthey have the right to do that. （有许多人没有看到网上分享音乐的危害，甚至认为他们有权利这样做。）So，to continue listening to their favoriteartists，people need to buy their music so that artists will make enoughprofits to continue their music careers.【高分句型二】（人们需要购买他们的音乐，这样艺术家才能获得足够的利润来继续他们的音乐事业）
【点评】概要写作，简言之就是对所读过的文章简要概括，写出文章的中心大意，也可称之为摘要。写概要时，读者要是把文章的具体信息用一些具有概括功能的词和句表述出来，而不是抄袭文章的原句，更不是把细节性信息作为中心，而是要通过对文章中的单词、词组和句子进行合理转换，对文章的具体信息进行概括，再用合适的语言表述出来。这一题型主要考查学生对文章主旨大意的概括和准确获取关键词的能力，同时考查学生用简洁的语言概括文章重要信息的能力以及对文章整体结构的把握能力。因此，概要写作是基于阅读理解和书面表达，是二者的有机结合体，是阅读理解和书面表达的沟通桥梁。
