Ⅰ.阅读理解(建议用时15′)
A
[2016·天水二中质检]I
paid
a
visit
to
Cambridge
last
January.
Though
the
trip
took
me
5
hours
and
it
rained
the
whole
day
with
strong
winds
there,
the
town
deserved
a
visit.
The
bus
started
at
6:10
a.m.
It
stopped
at
4
airports
before
we
finally
arrived,
which
wasted
more
time
than
we
expected.
Tired
with
long
sitting,
one
passenger
stood
up
to
relax
his
numbed
legs.
The
driver
asked
him
to
sit
down
but
in
vain.
So
he
pulled
up
and
said
seriously,
“Either
you
get
off
or
sit
down.”To
him,
safety
is
the
first
policy.
Cambridge
consists
of
nearly
thirty
colleges.
The
oldest
part
of
the
university
was
built
in
the
13th
century
while
the
newest
was
founded
in
the
mid
1960s.
The
number
of
the
students
is
so
great
that
many
students
live
in
lodgings
(出租房)
and
move
into
college
for
their
final
year.
Cambridge
is
called
a
university
town
because
there
is
no
clear
separation
between
the
university
buildings
and
the
rest
of
the
city.
The
university
is
not
just
one
part
of
the
town;
it
is
all
over
the
town.
The
heart
of
Cambridge
has
shops,
pubs,
and
supermarkets,
but
most
of
it
is
university colleges,
departments,
libraries,
clubs
and
other
places
for
university
staff
and
students.
Students
fill
the
shops,
cafes,
banks
and
churches,
making
these
as
well
part
of
the
university.
With
over
10,000
undergraduates
and
postgraduates,
the
town
is
a
busy
place
indeed.
Students
here
are
not
allowed
to
keep
cars.
If
you
happen
to
be
walking
in
the
street
during
a
break,
better
stop
a
moment
to
avoid
the
boiling
sea
of
bicycles
hurrying
in
all
directions,
carrying
students
from
one
college
or
lecture
room
to
another.

原文:The

while
the

was
founded
in
the
mid

B
[2016·衡水中学四调]Shyness
is
the
cause
of
much
unhappiness
for
a
great
many
people.
Shy
people
are
anxious
and
self-conscious;
that
is,
they
are
concerned
with
their
own
appearance
and
actions
too
much.
Negative
thoughts
are
constantly
occurring
in
their
minds:
What
kind
of
impression
am
I
making
Do
they
like
me
Do
I
sound
stupid
Am
I
wearing
unattractive
clothes
It
is
obvious
that
such
uncomfortable
feelings
must
affect
people
unfavorably.
A
person's
self-concept
is
reflected
in
the
way
he
or
she
behaves
and
the
way
a
person
behaves
affects
other
people's
reactions.
In
general,
the
way
people
think
about
themselves
has
a
deep
effect
on
all
areas
of
their
lives.
Shy
people,
who
have
low
respect,
are
likely
to
be
passive
and
easily
influenced
by
others.
They
need
faith
that
they
are
doing
“the
right
thing”.
Shy
people
are
very
sensitive
to
criticism.
It
makes
them
feel
inferior
(自卑).
They
also
find
it
difficult
to
be
pleased
by
praises
because
they
believe
they
are
unworthy
of
praise.
A
shy
person
may
respond
to
a
praise
with
a
statement
like
this
one:
“You're
just
saying
that
to
make
me
feel
good;
I
know
it's
not
true.”
It
is
clear
that,
while
self-awareness
is
a
healthy
quality,
overdoing
it
is
harmful.
Can
shyness
be
completely
got
rid
of,
or
at
least
reduced
Fortunately,
people
can
overcome
shyness
with
determination
since
shyness
goes
hand
in
hand
with
lack
of
self
respect.
It
is
important
for
people
to
accept
their
weakness
as
well
as
their
strengths.
Each
one
of
us
has
his
or
her
own
characteristics.
We
are
interested
in
our
own
personal
ways.
The
better
we
understand
ourselves,
the
easier
it
becomes
to
live
up
to
our
chances
for
a
rich
and
successful
life.

Ⅱ.七选五(建议用时7′)
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。
Ways
to
Get
Over
Ourselves
We
take
ourselves
too
seriously.
A
person
cuts
us
off
on
the
way
to
work,
and
it
ruins
our
whole
day.
We
get
upset
with
our
partners
for
not
taking
out
the
trash,
or
let
our
lazy
co-worker
get
under
our
skin.
1
A
person
starts
to
live
when
they
can
live
outside
themselves.
Here
are
some
ways
to
get
over
ourselves.
We
need
to
tell
ourselves
to
get
over
ourselves.
We
need
to
remind
ourselves
that
it's
not
about
us.
So
I
suggest
you
tell
yourself,
out
loud
and
in
the
mirror,
to
get
over
yourself—over
and
over.
Put
a
post-it
note
on
your
computer
at
work
or
leave
a
reminder
on
your
phone.
Just
remember,
it's
not
about
you.
2
We
need
to
allow
ourselves
to
make
mistakes.
We
are
only
humans,
and
we
will
always
make
mistakes.
By
allowing
ourselves
to
make
mistakes
and
by
knowing
it's
unavoidable,
we'll
make
it
a
lot
easier
on
ourselves
to
do
so.
3
We
can
tell
someone
we
love
them.
Love
is
all
you
need.
When
we
stop
making
it
about
us
and
tell
someone
we
love
them,
it
helps
calm
us
down
and
get
back
in
touch
with
what
matters
most.
4
The
faster
we
get
over
ourselves,
the
faster
we
can
spread
love
with
the
world
around
us.
5
It's
almost
impossible
to
be
in
a
bad
mood
when
laughing.
Fake
it
until
you
make
it.
Just
turn
that
frown
upside
down
and
make
it
a
happy
face.
Laughter
and
play
is
so
important
to
our
emotional
well-being.
A.That
is
the
crazy
thing
we
call
love.
B.We
should
focus
on
what
we
get.
C.We
should
all
just
laugh,
out
loud.
D.There
is
no
failure,
only
succeeding
and
learning.
E.The
more
we
can
remember
that,
the
easier
life
is.
F.But
remember
we
can't
change
anyone
but
ourselves.
G.When
we
focus
on
the
good
stuff,
that's
what
we'll
see.
本文是一篇说明文,从四个方面介绍了如何超越自我。
1.F 根据后文“A
person
starts
to
live
when
they
can
live
outside
themselves.
Here
are
some
ways
to
get
over
ourselves.
”可知,其前一定要介绍我们除了自己不能改变任何人。
2.E 根据上文“Just
remember,
it's
not
about
you.”可知,此处承接上文,介绍我们越能记住这个,生活就越容易。
3.D 此处总结上文:没有失败,只有成功和学习。
4.A 该段的主旨为:“We
can
tell
someone
we
love
them.”即,我们可以告诉某些人我们爱他们。上文说当我们告诉某些人我们爱他们时,这有助于我们冷静下来,再次意识到什么是最重要的。此处总结:我们把这种疯狂的东西叫做爱。
5.C 根据下文当你笑的时候你不可能有个坏心情。所谓演久成真。把皱眉翻了个底朝天,露出快乐的脸。欢笑和玩耍对我们的情感幸福非常重要。由此可知该段的主旨为:我们只需要大声笑。
Ⅲ.语法填空(建议用时8′)
阅读下面短文,在空白处填入适当的内容(1个单词)或括号内单词的正确形式。

本文分析了麦当劳在美国经营不景气的原因以及Shake
Shack这样的“快餐店”受欢迎的原因。
1.choosing 考查省略句。“连词+非谓语结构”,choose与句子主语Americans之间为主动关系,故填choosing。
2.restaurants 考查名词。one
of+名词复数。
3.but 考查连词。前后两句之间为转折关系。“尽管麦当劳是美国最知名的餐馆,但最近领导人看到了他们不喜欢的数字”。
4.eighth 考查数词。空前为定冠词,空后为名词,故此处填序数词。
5.is
working 考查动词时态。根据上文介绍麦当劳的境况可知,当前麦当劳正在努力使顾客回来。
6.to
reach 考查want的用法。want后应为“to
do”结构。
7.a 考查冠词。Shake
Shack为首次出现,故此处表示“一种新型的餐馆”。
8.As/When/While 考查状语从句。结合语义可知,此处表示时间。
9.successful 考查词性转换。空前有副词,空后为名词,故该空填形容词。

Dear
Editor,
We
made
a
survey
in
our
school
last
week
and
I'd
like
to
tell
you
something
about
the
results.
Yours

One
possible
version:
Dear
Editor,
We
made
a
survey
in
our
school
last
week
and
I'd
like
to
tell
you
something
about
the
results.
As
is
demonstrated
in
the
bar
chart,
great
mind
worship
occupies
47%
of
the
idol
worship,
followed
by
celebrity
worship
which
gains
the
percentage
of
38%.
11%
of
the
students
surveyed
adore
people
around
them,
for
instance,
teachers,
parents
or
friends.
Students
without
idols
account
for
the
rest
of
4%.
Apparently,
idol
worship
has
become
a
common
social
phenomenon
among
the
adolescents.
There
is
no
denying
that
idol
worship
inspires
us
to
focus
on
their
achievements,
which
come
from
diligence,
effort
and
persistence.
However,
blind
worship
is
not
supposed
to
be
advocated
because
it
will
lead
to
extreme
behavior
easily.
As
far
as
I
am
concerned,
we
should
avoid
blind
worship
and
learn
to
worship
our
idols
rationally.
Yours
sincerely,
Li
