Ⅰ．阅读理解(共7小题；每小题2.5分，满分17.5分)
A
In our annual Readers' Choice Awards survey，we asked our readers to rate their favorite cities in the world for arts and culture．These cities are centres of music and dance，museums，and theatres．Here are four of them where you can find inspiration in the arts，starting with the top spot．
Rome，Italy
At its peak，the Roman Empire extended over nearly two million square miles of land across Europe，Asia Minor and North Africa．Today，that history is on display everywhere．The city's main attractions are famous not because of tourist advertisements，but because they are really so impressive．No wonder it's known as the Eternal City：You could spend forever here and find new artistic and cultural treasures every day．
Paris，France
Hemingway famously called Paris“a moveable feast”，but wherever you go while in the city，there is always something to see，hear，taste or feel．With some 150 museums，Paris doubles as an art history class，offering the very best of the discipline across centuries and styles．
London，The United Kingdom
London is inspiration and setting for the rise of Shakespeare，Dickens，Orwell and Eliot and the breeding ground for all those iconic (标志性的) bands：The Kinks，The Clash and The Stones．London is also Banksy's favorite canvas，home to more than 1，000 galleries，and the kind of pace where you can spend a whole day in a single museum and still be ready for more when it opens the next morning．
Vienna，Austria
As we all know，Western music would be unrecognizable without Austria's capital，which nurtured many famous musicians．It's also the site of the Vienna Secession，a revolutionary art movement founded in 1897 by Gustav Klimt．Visitors today can see the fruits of all that creativity in the city's 100-odd museums．
1．Why is Rome regarded as the Eternal City
A．It had an important role in history．
B．Its history can be seen everywhere．
C．People can easily find new art and culture．
D．People can spend money well there．
2．What does the underlined word“nurtured”in the last paragraph mean
A．Produced． B．Affected． C．Attracted． D．Changed．
3．Which column can we probably find the text
A．History． B．Art．
C．Education． D．Life．
B
The amount of rubbish that piles on our shore lines is hugely worrying and a growing problem for the planet．It seems like no matter how remote you hike and how high you climb，there's always a dropped plastic container there waiting for you．
Mariah Reading，an American artist，spends the majority of her time outdoors looking for inspiration for her art，based in nature and our natural surroundings．On noticing the amount of waste filling her natural areas，she decided she had to reflect it in her works．
For her project，Mariah is looking at both the problem of wasteful littering and the way that art itself can be wasteful in materials，taking the dropped items that fill her natural spaces and painting them to reflect the place in which they were left．
Applying paint to create her masterpieces，Mariah has collected trash (垃圾) from different mountains and parks．“I've been considering my relationship with art and the large amount of waste it can produce，”says Mariah．“I wanted to find ways I can confirm art and its important purpose by working with recycled materials found in landscape environments．”
“Since the 100th anniversary of the National Park Service，I've especially appreciated and been inspired by the natural beauty the parks offer，and found how easily we can take these precious places for granted．I seek to gather as much trash as possible，sculpt it into a canvas (画布)，and paint the scene where the trash originated onto the trash itself，”says Mariah．
As well as through this project，Mariah has explored nature in her art in various different ways and through exhibitions．Mariah's work might not solve the litter problem，but it's just another way that we can get people talking about the problem and the ways we can prevent it from growing any larger．
4．What gave Mariah the idea of the project
A．The beauty of nearby scenery．
B．The rubbish-covered surroundings．
C．The potential security risks of beaches．
D．The high energy consumption of her artworks．
5．What's the important purpose of Mariah's art
A．To keep people from wasting natural resources．
B．To remind people of the litter problem．
C．To encourage people to explore parks．
D．To make full use of rubbish．
6．What is special about Mariah's new artworks
A．They are made of oceanic rubbish．
B．They appear in the form of sculpture．
C．They reflect the trash places on trash itself．
D．They're designed to inspire people's love for painting．
7．What can be the best title for the text
A．The Growing Problem of Rubbish
B．Mariah Reading: a Sociable Artist
C．An Artist Turns Waste into Amazing Works
D．Celebrate the 100th Anniversary of the National Park Service
Ⅱ．阅读七选五(共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分)

能力提升
Ⅰ．【语篇解读】 本文是一篇应用文。文章主要介绍了罗马、巴黎、伦敦、维也纳这四个艺术和文化城市。
1．C [细节理解题。根据文中的“No wonder it's known as the Eternal City：You could spend forever here and find new artistic and cultural treasures every day．”可知，罗马被认为是永恒之城的原因是人们很容易在那发现新的艺术和文化。故选C。]
2．A [词义猜测题。根据画线词后面的“many famous musicians”可知，此处表达的应该是“产生”了很多著名的音乐家。故选A。]
3．B [文章出处题。文章主要介绍了四个艺术和文化城市。因而我们可以在艺术专栏中找到这篇文章。故选B。]
【语篇解读】 本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了美国艺术家Mariah Reading在自己的作品中用垃圾进行艺术创作，旨在唤醒人们的环保意识。
4．B [细节理解题。根据第二段可知，被垃圾覆盖的环境让Mariah产生了这个作品的灵感。故选B。]
5．B [推理判断题。根据最后一段可知，Mariah的艺术的重要目的是提醒人们垃圾的问题。故选B。]
6．C [细节理解题。根据第五段“‘...I seek to gather as much trash as possible，sculpt it into a canvas，and paint the scene where the trash originated onto the trash itself，’says Mariah．”可知，Mariah的新作品的特别之处在于它们把垃圾的位置反映在垃圾本身上。故选C。]
7．C [标题归纳题。结合全文内容可知，文章主要讲述了美国艺术家Mariah Reading在自己的作品中用尽可能多的垃圾进行艺术创作，旨在唤醒人们的环保意识。所以文章最好的题目是“一位艺术家把废物变成令人惊叹的作品”。故选C。]
Ⅱ．【语篇解读】 本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了找回生活热情的方法。
1．E [根据上文“A life passion isn't something that drops on you from the heaven or appears from thin air．”可知，生活热情不是自然而生的，E项“发现你的热情是一个自我发现的过程。”承接上文，表示可以通过发现自我、认识自我的过程获得热情，并呼应下文及最后一段首句提到的“The process of finding your passion...”。故选E。]
2．A [此处为该段小标题，应概括本段的内容，即随身携带一个袖珍笔记本，拿起笔记录下快乐时刻的感想。A项“认识到你的快乐。”符合语境。故选A。]
3．G [根据本段小标题可知，应舍弃各种“应该”，G项“许多人因为‘应该’这个词而阻碍了自己的幸福。”中的“should”呼应了标题，并衔接下文所举的例子。故选G。]
4．C [根据上文“Maybe you aren't an artist at something，but you have many skills．”可知，也许你不是某方面的艺术家，但你有很多技能。C项“你可能没意识到它们，但别人知道。”中的“them”指代上文的“skills”，“others”指代下文的“friends and parents”。故选C。]
5．B [根据上文“The process of finding your passion may take a couple of years...”可知，找回生活热情是一个漫长的过程，不会一蹴而就，需要不断尝试。B项“有耐心并不断挖掘。”承接上文，符合语境。故选B。]
Ⅲ．【语篇解读】 本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了中国传统绘画的代表作——《千里江山图》，介绍了其作者以及绘画特色等。
1．a [考查冠词。此处修饰可数名词单数“masterpiece”，表泛指，首字母的发音以辅音音素开头。所以用不定冠词 a。故填 a。]
2．impressive [考查词性转换。设空处在句中与空前空后的“as...as(像……一样；正如……一样)”构成同级比较句式，且设空处在句中作表语，表示“给人印象深刻的”，应填形容词。故填 impressive。]
3．teens [考查名词复数。此处为固定搭配：in one's teens，意为“在某人十几岁时”。故填 teens。]
4．to have discovered [考查非谓语动词。此处为非谓语动词担当主语补足语，构成句型：sb．be said to...；根据下文的“taken”可知，应用动词不定式的完成式。故填 to have discovered。]
5．personally [考查词性转换。此处修饰动词短语taken charge of，应用副词形式。故填 personally。]
6．had mastered [考查动词的时态。by the time(到……时间为止)为时间状语，从句谓语是一般过去时，主句谓语应用过去完成时。故填had mastered。]
7．Measuring [考查非谓语动词。此处为非谓语动词作状语，measure与A Thousand Li of Rivers and Mountains为主动关系，用动词-ing形式。空处位于句首，首字母大写。故填Measuring。]
8．covered [考查非谓语动词。此处为非谓语动词作后置定语，和被修饰词“rivers”之间为被动关系，应用动词-ed形式。故填covered。]
9．but [考查固定搭配。not only...but(also)...为固定搭配，意为“不但……而且……”。故填but。]
10．who/that [考查定语从句。定语从句的先行词为fishermen，在定语从句中担当主语，用关系代词who或that引导。故填 who/that。]
