Friendship
Ⅰ.阅读理解
A
(2017·黑龙江大庆模拟)It
is
really
a
happy
thing
to
look
back
on
the
days
I
spent
with
Jennie.
We
met
in
night
school.
After
Jennie
and
I
had
completed
the
required
courses,
we
started
teaching
in
the
same
school.
For
a
time
we
were
just
casual
friends,
but
one
day,
when
I
was
telling
Jennie
about
my
problem
son,
we
discovered
we
were
kindred(同类的)
spirits.“He's
a
difficult
little
character，”
I
explained.Jennie
looked
thoughtful.“Maybe
you're
only
seeing
him
with
your
eyes.”
She
was
silent
for
a
moment
and
then
added
softly，“It
is
only
with
the
heart
that
one
can
see
rightly.”
I
stared
at
her.“You're
quoting
(引用)
that!
It's
from
The
Little
Prince,
Antoine
de
Saint Exupery's
book
for
children,
one
of
my
favorites.
You
know
it,
too？”Jennie
nodded.“I
love
it.I've
read
it
so
often.I've
practically
memorized
it.”
Now,
when
I
think
of
Jennie,
I
recall
that
book
because
Jennie—more
than
anyone
I
know—possessed
the
gift
of
seeing
with
the
heart.
From
that
moment
of
a
treasured
book
shared,
our
friendship
grew
steadily.
It
wasn't
that
I
didn't
have
an
excellent
relationship
with
my
husband
and
son,
but
my
mother
had
died
shortly
after
my
marriage,
and
I
had
neither
sisters
nor
daughters.
I
realize,
now，how
I
needed
someone
to
share
those
little,
seemingly
unimportant
things
that
add
so
much
to
life—things
that
must
be
shared
to
be
fully
appreciated.
And
it
was
Jennie
who
helped
me
with
my
fourth grade
problem
child.One_day_I_was_at_my_wit's_end.“What
he
needs
is
a
good
beating！”
I
shouted.
“He's
probably
had
plenty
of
those，”
Jennie
said.“Maybe
he
just
needs
sincere
praise
for
anything
he
does
right,
and
a
hug
or
two
each
day.”
I
followed
this
suggestion,
and
eventually,
because
of
Jennie,
I
discovered
a
lovable
little
boy.
Looking
back,
I
have
to
admit
that
she
taught
me
so
much.
The
days
I
spent
with
her
have
become
one
of
my
happiest
memories.

B
(2016·高考全国甲卷)Five
years
ago，when
I
taught
art
at
a
school
in
Seattle，I
used
Tinkertoys
as
a
test
at
the
beginning
of
a
term
to
find
out
something
about
my
students.I
put
a
small
set
of
Tinkertoys
in
front
of
each
student，and
said：“Make
something
out
of
the
Tinkertoys.You
have
45
minutes
today—and
45
minutes
each
day
for
the
rest
of
the
week.”
A
few
students
hesitated
to
start.They
waited
to
see
what
the
rest
of
the
class
would
do.Several
others
checked
the
instructions
and
made
something
according
to
one
of
the
model
plans
provided.Another
group
built
something
out
of
their
own
imaginations.
Once
I
had
a
boy
who
worked
experimentally
with
Tinkertoys
in
his
free
time.His
constructions
filled
a
shelf
in
the
art
classroom
and
a
good
part
of
his
bedroom
at
home.I
was
delighted
at
the
presence
of
such
a
student.Here
was
an
exceptionally
creative
mind
at
work.His
presence
meant
that
I
had
an
unexpected
teaching
assistant
in
class
whose
creativity
would
infect
(感染)
other
students.
Encouraging
this
kind
of
thinking
has
a
downside.
I
ran
the
risk
of
losing
those
students
who
had
a
different
style
of
thinking.Without
fail
one
would
declare，“But
I'm
just
not
creative.”
“Do
you
dream
at
night
when
you're
asleep？”
“Oh，sure.”
“So
tell
me
one
of
your
most
interesting
dreams.”The
student
would
tell
something
wildly
imaginative.Flying
in
the
sky
or
in
a
time
machine
or
growing
three
heads.“That's
pretty
creative.Who
does
that
for
you？”
“Nobody.I
do
it.”
“Really—at
night，when
you're
asleep？”
“Sure.”
“Try
doing
it
in
the
daytime，in
class，okay？”
5．The
teacher
used
Tinkertoys
in
class
in
order
to________.
A．know
more
about
the
students
B．make
the
lessons
more
exciting
C．raise
the
students'
interest
in
art
D．teach
the
students
about
toy
design
6．What
do
we
know
about
the
boy
mentioned
in
Paragraph
3
A．He
liked
to
help
his
teacher.
B．He
preferred
to
study
alone.
C．He
was
active
in
class.
D．He
was
imaginative.
7.
What
does
the
underlined
word
“downside”
in
Paragraph
4
probably
mean
A．Mistake.
B．Drawback.
C．Difficulty.
D．Burden.
8．Why
did
the
teacher
ask
the
students
to
talk
about
their
dreams
A．To
help
them
to

【语篇导读】 本文是一篇记叙文。作为一名教师，作者用一种玩具培养孩子们的创造性和动手能力，其中一个孩子的创造性引起了作者的注意。
5．解析：选A。细节理解题。从题干的in
order
to判断，本题询问作者在课堂使用这种玩具的目的，第一段提到as
a
test
...to
find
out
something
about
my
students，由此可知作者的目的是更多地了解自己的学生，因此选A项。B项“让课程更激动人心”，C项“提高学生们对艺术的兴趣”，D项“教学生玩具设计”，均不是作者的目的。
6．解析：选D。推理判断题。第三段作者描述这个学生，说他特别有创造性(was
an
exceptionally
creative
mind
at
work)，因此选D项。imaginative有想象力的。作者在该段说他的创造力能够感染班上其他学生，这让作者意外地有了一个教学帮手，没有说他喜欢帮助老师(A项错)，文章没有提到他更喜欢独自一个人学习(B项错)，也没有提到他在课堂上非常活跃(C项错)。
7．解析：选B。词义猜测题。前文提到作者很喜爱这个学生，说这个学生的创造性能够感染其他学生，下文说“冒着失去那些有不同的思考风格的学生的风险”，根据语境前后的对比判断，downside的含义应该是drawback“不利条件，缺点”，而不是mistake“错误”，difficulty“困难”，burden“负担”。
8．解析：选A。推理判断题。根据题干信息可知本题考查的是文章后半部分对话的信息。作者鼓励学生讲述他们最有趣的梦，然后鼓励学生说，“白天在课堂上也试一试做梦，好吗？”由此推断，作者让学生讲述他们的梦，是为了帮助学生看到自己的创造性，因此选A项。B项“为了弄清楚他们的睡眠习惯”，C项“为了帮助他们提高记忆力”，D项“为了弄清楚他们的思维方式”，均不是作者的目的。
C
(2017·北京东城联考)I
really
love
my
job
because
I
enjoy
working
with
small
children
and
like
the
challenges
and
awards
from
the
job.
I
also
think
my
work
is
important.
There
was
a
time
when
I
thought
I
would
never
have
that
sort
of
career
(职业)．
I
wasn't
an
excellent
student
because
I
didn't
do
much
schoolwork.
In
my
final
term
I
started
thinking
what
I
might
do
and
found
I
didn't
have
much
to
offer.
I
just
accepted
that
I
wasn't
the
type
to
have
a
career.
I
then
found
myself
a
job,
looking
after
two
little
girls.It
wasn't
too
bad
at
first.
But
the
problems
began
when
I
agreed
to
live
in,
so
that
I
would
be
there
if
my
boss
had
to
go
out
for
business
in
the
evening.
We
agreed
that
if
I
had
to
work
extra
hours
one
week，she'd
give
me
time
off
the
next.
But
unfortunately,
it
didn't
often
work
out.I
was
getting
extremely
tired
and
fed
up,
because
I
had
too
many
late
nights
and
early
mornings
with
the
children.
One
Sunday,
I
was
in
the
park
with
the
children,
and
met
Megan
who
used
to
go
to
school
with
me.
I
told
her
about
my
situation.
She
suggested
that
I
should
do
a
course
and
get
a
qualification
(资格证书)
if
I
wanted
to
work
with
children.
I
didn't
think
I
would
be
accepted
because
I
didn't
take
many
exams
in
school.
She
persuaded
me
to
phone
the
local
college
and
they
were
really
helpful.
My
experience
counted
for
a
lot
and
I
got
on
a
part time
course.I
had
to
leave
my
job
with
the
family，and
got
work
helping
out
at
a
kindergarten.
Now
I've
got
a
full time
job
there.
I
shall
always
be
thankful
to
Megan.
I
wish
I
had
known
earlier
that
you
could
have
a
career，even
if
you
aren't
top
of
the
class
at
school.

D
(2017·甘肃兰州高三诊断)Your
kids
learn
a
lot
from
their
friends—things
you
can't
teach
them,
no
matter
how
much
you
want
to.
Probably
the
most
important
thing
kids
learn
is
how
to
have
peer
relationships.
As
a
parent,
you
can't
do
this,
because
you
and
your
child
aren't
equals.
For
example,
when
you're
sitting
on
your
family
room
floor
and
your
very
young
child
asks
you
to
pass
him
the
blocks,
you
probably
hand
them
right
over.
If
your
child
is
sitting
with
a
peer
and
asks
the
same
thing,
though,
he
might
not
get
what
he
wants.
To
succeed,
your
child
will
need
to
learn
strategies
for
getting
what
he
wants.
For
example,
he
might
simply
yank
(猛拉)
the
toy
out
of
his
friend's
hand.
If
he
does
that,
he
may
learn
that
it's
not
the
best
way
of
getting
what
he
wants
because
it
leads
to
fighting
and
time outs.
The
successful
child
will
learn
that
he
needs
to
negotiate
a
trade,
to
wait
patiently,
or
to
find
something
else
equally
fun
to
play
with.
Friends
also
provide
emotional
support,
something
that
is
part
of
the
foundation
of
healthy
adulthood.
You
can't
be
with
your
child
on
the
elementary
school
playground
or
at
the
high
school
dance.
Your
child's
friends
will
be
the
ones
to
stick_up_for
her,
to
include
her
in
games,
and
later,
to
tell
her
she
looks
great
even
if
her
lousy
prom
(糟糕的舞会)
date
wanders
off
instead
of
dancing
with
her.
Friends
also
help
your
children
learn.
Friends
solve
problems
together,
imitate
each
other,
and
pass
on
knowledge.
Some
experts
believe
that
the
single
biggest
predictor
of
your
child's
success
later
in
life
is
her
ability
to
make
friends.
In
fact,
they
claim
it's
even
more
important
than
IQ
and
grades.
This
doesn't
mean
that
the
kids
who
are
most
popular
in
school
do
the
best
later
on
in
life.
What
matters
is
not
the
number
of
friends
a
child
has
but
rather
the
quality
of
the
relationships.
This
is
good
news
for
those
of
us
who
hate
to
think
that
popularity
really
is
the
Holy
Grail
of
childhood
and
adolescence.
While
it's
true
that
popularity
has
many
advantages,
and
that
many
popular
kids
really
are
nice
people—and
not
just
the
best
dressed
or
best
looking—it's
better
to
have
a
few
good
friends
than
to
have
the
admiration
of
the
masses.
13．By
giving
the
example
in
Paragraph
3,
the
author
wants
to
show
that
________.
A．kids
can
learn
how
to
deal
with
the
relationships
when
they
stay
with
their
peers
B．parents
should
spend
more
spare
time
playing
with
their
kids
C．kids
should
learn
how
to
be
polite
when
they
ask
their
parents
for
help
D．parents
can
teach
their
kids
how
to
be
good
members
in
the
modern
society
in
their
daily
life
14．What
does
the
underlined
phrase
“stick
up
for”
in
the
fifth
paragraph
mean
A．Envy.
B．Oppose.
C．Support.
D．Ignore.
15．In
the
author's
opinion，________
is
more
important
than
being
popular
for
kids.
A．getting
high
grades
B．having
some
real
friends
C．developing
a
good
habit
D．knowing
how
to
dress
themselves
up
16．Which
of
the
following
can
be
the
best
title
for
the
passage
A．How
to
Bridge
the
Generation
Gap
B．What
It
Takes
to
Be
a
Good
Friend
C．Why
Friends
Are
Important
D．How
to
Be
Popular
in
School
【语篇导读】 本文是一篇议论文。孩子们会从和朋友的相处中学到许多大人怎么想教都教不会的事，所以真正的好朋友对一个人的成长至关重要。
13．解析：选A。推理判断题。一般而言，在议论文中，举例都是为了证明作者的观点。由此可知，第三段所举例子是为了证明第二段作者的观点，即“Probably
the
most
important
thing
kids
learn
is
how
to
have
peer
relationships.”。故选A。
14．解析：选C。词义猜测题。根据本段第一句中的“Friends
also
provide
emotional
support”可知，此处将家长与同龄朋友进行比较是为了说明同龄朋友会给孩子们以情感上的支持。由此可知，画线词意为“支持”。故选C。
15．解析：选B。细节理解题。根据文章最后三段可知，朋友的质量比朋友的数量、智商、分数和外表都重要。故选B。
16．解析：选C。标题归纳题。文章的中心段是第一段，由此结合全文内容可知，文章主要说明了同龄朋友对孩子成长的重要性。故选C。

How
to
Be
a
Good
Friend
A
good
friend,
who
wouldn't
want
one
Ever
felt
yours
just
not
good
enough
but
don't
know
where
to
improve？____1____I
used
to
annoy
a
lot
of
my
friends
before，just
for
the
sake
of
having
fun
and
from
that
I've
learned
how
to
be
a
good
friend,
and
stay
as
a
good
friend.
Listen.
No
one
likes
being
interrupted
when
they're
talking.
So,
when
someone
talks,
keep
yourself
quiet
and
listen
to
them,
especially
if
they're
feeling
down,
you
need
to
be
the
shoulder
for
them
to
cry
on.
If
you
have
any
comment
to
make,
be
sure
that
you
word
it
in
a
way
where
you
don't
sound
too
negative.____2____When
you
just
don't
share
the
same
interest
or
you're
not
in
the
mood
to
listen
to
them,
politely
let
them
know
and
ask
them
to
understand.
Always
smile.
3____The
least
you
can
do
is,
whenever
you
see
your
friends,
smile
and
say
hello.
That
way,
if
they
had
a
bad
day,
you
can
make
them
feel
better
with
your
smile
along
with
your
ear,
and
maybe,
you
can
share
something
funny
to
cheer
them
up.
Don't
ever
lie.
Everyone
would
hate
being
lied
to,
especially
if
it's
by
your
own
friend,
so
don't
lie!
It
might
seem
alright
to
lie
occasionally,
but
once
you
lose
your
friend's
trust,
you
may
lose
them
forever.____4____
Keep
secrets.
Make
sure
you
can
keep
a
secret.
If
not,
tell
your
friends
straight
away
you
cannot
help
yourself
when
it
comes
to
secrets.
Otherwise,
when
you
let
them
tell
you
about
their
secrets
and
you
“accidentally”
share
it
with
someone
else,
you'll
have
your
friends
hating
you
for
the
rest
of
your
life.____5____Secrets
are
not
meant
to
be
shared,
so
don't
even
try.
A．Everyone
has
their
bad
days,
and
it's
unavoidable.
B．And
that
is
something
you
surely
do
not
want
to
happen.
C．Well,
you've
come
to
the
right
place.
D．A
few
people
seem
upset
at
you
for
being
so
direct.
E．Otherwise,
they
may
just
take
it
as
you
are
trying
to
put
them
down.
F．This
same
thing
happened
to
a
good
friend
of
mine.
G．They'll
probably
call
you
“big
mouth”．

1．解析：选C。根据上下文，前两句提出问题，现在来解决问题。
2．解析：选E。根据下文应是转折关系，故使用E。

hero
Ⅰ.阅读理解
A
(2016·高考全国甲卷)A
new
collection
of
photos
brings
an
unsuccessful
Antarctic
voyage
back
to
life.
Frank
Hurley's
pictures
would
be
outstanding—undoubtedly
first rate
photo journalism—if
they
had
been
made
last
week.In
fact，they
were
shot
from
1914
through
1916，most
of
them
after
a
disastrous
shipwreck
(海难)
，by
a
cameraman
who
had
no
reasonable
expectation
of
survival.Many
of
the
images
were
stored
in
an
ice
chest，under
freezing
water，in
the
damaged
wooden
ship.
The
ship
was
the
Endurance，a
small，tight，Norwegian built
three master
that
was
intended
to
take
Sir
Ernest
Shackleton
and
a
small
crew
of
seamen
and
scientists,27
men
in
all，to
the
southernmost
shore
of
Antarctica's
Weddell
Sea.From
that
point
Shackleton
wanted
to
force
a
passage
by
dog
sled
(雪橇)
across
the
continent.The
journey
was
intended
to
achieve
more
than
what
Captain
Robert
Falcon
Scott
had
done.Captain
Scott
had
reached
the
South
Pole
early
in
1912
but
had
died
with
his
four
companions
on
the
march
back.
As
writer
Caroline
Alexander
makes
clear
in
her
forceful
and
well researched
story
The
Endurance，adventuring
was
even
then
a
thoroughly
commercial
effort.Scott's
last
journey，completed
as
he
lay
in
a
tent
dying
of
cold
and
hunger，caught
the
world's
imagination，and
a
film
made
in
his
honor
drew
crowds.Shackleton，a
onetime
British
merchant navy
officer
who
had
got
to
within
100
miles
of
the
South
Pole
in
1908，started
a
business
before
his
1914
voyage
to
make
money
from
movie
and
still
photography.Frank
Hurley，a
confident
and
gifted
Australian
photographer
who
knew
the
Antarctic，was
hired
to
make
the
images，most
of
which
have
never
before
been
published.
1．What
do
we
know
about
the
photos
taken
by
Hurley
A．They
were
made
last
week.
B．They
showed
undersea
sceneries.
C．They
were
found
by
a
cameraman.
D．They
recorded
a
disastrous
adventure.
2．Who
reached
the
South
Pole
first
according
to
the
text
A．Frank
Hurley.
B．Ernest
Shackleton.
C．Robert
Falcon
Scott.
D．Caroline
Alexander.
3．What
does
Alexander
think
was
the
purpose
of
the
1914
voyage
A．Artistic
creation.
B．Scientific
research.
C．Money
making.
D．Treasure
hunting.
【语篇导读】 本文是一篇记叙文。1914年到1916年间，一群海员和科学家踏上了南极探险之路。结果他们在回来的路上发生海难，其中一个摄影师在临死之前拍摄了大量的照片，并把照片封存在破损的木船的冰块箱里。通过这些照片我们可以了解到那次不太成功的探险经历。
1．解析：选D。细节理解题。由题干中的the
photos
taken
by
Hurley定位到文章第二段开头。该段说这些照片即使是上个星期拍的也堪称佳作，故A项错误；该段中还说照片是在一次海难之后拍的，故D项正确；文章没有说拍摄的是海底景观，故B项错误；拍摄者是摄影师，但没有说是一名摄影师发现了这些照片，故C项错误。
2．选C。推理判断题。由题干中的“第一个到达南极”这条信息定位到第三段。被发现的照片所展示的这次旅行是为了获得比Robert
Falcon
Scott船长先前的探险更大的收获，该船长在1912年就到达了南极。由此推断Robert
Falcon
Scott是最先到达南极的人，故选C项。
3．选C。细节理解题。题干的Alexander在最后一段出现，the
1914
voyage指本文谈到的Endurance这艘船的探险，该段开头说，这个作家在她的小说The
Endurance中说，在那时，探险就已经是纯商业活动(a
thoroughly
commercial
effort)了，因此1914年航行的目的是赚钱(money
making)，故选C项。A项“艺术创作”，B项“科学调研”，D项“寻宝”，均未体现。
B
(2017·广东惠州三调)In
1959,
when
Jean
Harper
was
in
the
third
grade,
her
teacher
gave
the
class
an
assignment
to
write
a
report
on
what
they
wanted
to
be
when
they
grew
up.
She
poured
her
heart
into
her
report
and
expressed
her
dream
of
becoming
an
airline
pilot.
Her
paper
came
back
with
an
“F”
on
it.
The
teacher
told
her
it
was
a
“fairy
tale”.
Jean
was
heartbroken
and
ashamed.
As
the
years
went
by,
Jean
was
beaten
down
by
the
discouragement
and
negativity
she
encountered
whenever
she
talked
about
her
dream.“Girls
can't
become
airline
pilots;
never
have,
never
will.
You're
crazy.
That's
impossible.”
Finally
Jean
gave
up.
In
her
senior
year
of
high
school,
her
English
teacher
was
Mrs.
Dorothy
Slaton,
a
demanding
teacher
with
high
standards.
One
day
Mrs.
Slaton
asked
this
question：“If
you
had
unlimited
finances,
unlimited
access
to
the
finest
schools,
unlimited
talents
and
abilities,
what
would
you
do？”
Jean
felt
a
rush
of
the
old
enthusiasm,
and
with
excitement
she
wrote
down
the
very
old
dream.
The
next
thing
that
Mrs.
Slaton
said
changed
the
course
of
Jean's
life.
The
teacher
leaned
forward
over
her
desk
and
said，“I
have
a
little
secret
for
you.
You
do
have
unlimited

10
years
of
hard
work,
even
facing
varieties

(2017·河北衡水第三次联考)My
grandmother
was
from
a
town
in
Michigan.
Summer
after
summer，I
enjoyed
staying
with
my
grandparents
as
a
young
child.I
was
from
the
city
and
loved
the
small
town
they
lived
in.
People
knew
everyone,
their
kids,
their
pets
and
their
ancestors.
The
bond
with
them
continued
to
grow
as
they
got
older.
Grandma
was
always
using
her
hands
for
something
exciting.
She
would
make
little
sandwiches
and
we'd
have
tea
parties.
She'd
make
beautiful
quilts
for
each
one.
I
remember
the
small
thimble
(顶针)
she
would
use
while
doing
her
needle
work.
A
few
years
ago,
when
Grandma
left
this
earth,
I
bid
farewell
to
a
loving
grandmother.
How
quickly
our
lives
can
change.
We
had
just
had
tea
together
a
couple
of
months
earlier,
on
her
91st
birthday.
I
missed
her
very
much.
On
one
particular
birthday,
when
I
was
feeling
a
little
low,
something
happened
to
make
me
feel
like
she
was
sharing
that
special
day
with
me.
I
was
arranging
some
colorful
pillows
that
she
had
made,
and
suddenly
I
felt
something
inside
one
pillow.
It
was
small
and
hard.
I
moved
the
object
to
a
seam
(接缝)
that
I
carefully
opened,
and
to
my
delight
out
came
a
tiny
silver
thimble!
How
happy
I
was
to
find
something
that
had
been
a
part
of
her.Not
realizing
it
had
fallen
off
her
finger,
I
pictured
her
sewing
it
in
that
little
pillow
that
I
just
happened
to
place
on
my
bedspread
that
day.
I
carefully
laid
the
thimble
alongside
the
others
I've
collected
over
the
years,
where
I
could
continue
to
see
the
gift
God
chose
to
reveal
to
me.
What
a
precious
memory
of
a
very
special
lady
who
somehow,
I
knew,
was
laughing
in
delight
at
sewing
her
thimble
inside
my
pillow.
I
made
some
tea,
using
my
best
china,
as
Grandma
always
did,
and
enjoyed
my
tea
and
Grandma's
thimble.
What
a
wonderful
birthday
that
was!

D
With
a
million
18 25s
unemployed,
it's
not
an
easy
time
for
young
people
looking
to
get
on
the
job
ladder.However,
through
the
statistic
I
saw
an
opportunity
that
I
decided
to
take.
Throughout
the
past
years
I
have
worked
hard
to
develop
a
number
of
projects
to
help
young
people
gain
an
advantage
in
their
careers
and
in
life.
With
the
support
of
Levi
Roots,
who
created
Reggae
sauce,
I
founded
UnITe
Computing
in
2011
and
since
then
I
have
enjoyed
working
with
clients(客户)
such
as
Google
UK，the
University
of
Australia
and
others.
Though
this
journey
has
had
its
ups
and
downs,
I
am
proud
of
how
far
we
have
come.
The
main
issue
I
have
faced
so
far
in
my
business
life
has
been
gaining
the
trust
of
others.
If
you
are
19,
not
very
many
people
believe
you
when
you
say
you
run
a
number
of
businesses.
In
fact
I
have
been
laughed
at
and
even
told
to
get
a
job
by
some.This
was
a
major
obstacle
I
had
to
face.
To
overcome
it
I
simply
established
a
professional
and
positive
reputation
among
colleagues,
friends
and
in
the
media
in
order
to
build
credibility
for
myself
and
my
businesses.
Age
should
not
limit
your
ability
to
succeed
and
I
have
gained
more
respect
due
to
my
willingness
to
give
back
and
reward
the
communities
which
support
me.
One
of
the
young
business
people
I
personally
support
is
Ryan
Farquharson
who
runs
Lovethequote.
com.He
says，“To
anybody
that
has
an
urge
to
run
their
own
business
I
would
absolutely
say
go
for
it,
anyone
can
do
it！”
It's
this
go getting
attitude
that
I
firmly
believe
needs
to
be
encouraged
and
developed
among
today's
young
people.
The
“one
million
unemployed
youth”statistic
is
a
key
drive
for
change
and
an
opportunity
to
get
up
and
make
something
of
yourself，you
simply
have
to
go
for
it
and
pick
up
support.
That
is
what
my
journey
and
my
story
aims
to
inspire.
12．The
author
established
the
company
because
he
________.
A．failed
to
find
a
satisfying
job
B．enjoyed
working
for
himself
C．followed
Levi
Roots'
advice
D．spotted
a
chance
of
success
13．The
underlined
word
“obstacle”
in
Paragraph
2
means
________.
A．pressure
B．difficulty
C．frustration
D．disappointment
14．By
mentioning
Ryan
Farquharson,
the
author
wants
to
________.
A．show
the
achievement
Ryan
Farquharson
has
made
B．encourage
young
people
to
turn
to
him
for
support
C．explain
what
is
the
most
important
thing
to
succeed
D．introduce
the
right
attitude
young
people
should
have
15．Which
of
the
following
words
can
best
describe
the
author
A．Determined
and
generous.
B．Considerate
and
optimistic.
C．Sympathetic
and
productive.
D．Adventurous
and
responsible.
【语篇导读】 本文是记叙文。面对很多年轻人找不到工作的现状，同样身为年轻人的作者从中嗅得商机并创办了自己的公司，帮助其他年轻人赢在起跑线上。
12．解析：选D。细节理解题。根据第一段中的“through
the
statistic
I
saw
an
opportunity
that
I
decided
to
take
...I
founded
UnITe
Computing”可知，作者通过统计看到一个实施的机会。……并于2011年成立了UnITe
Computing公司。
13．解析：选B。词义猜测题。由于年龄小，作者不能取得别人的信任，因此如何取得别人的信任成为作者在创业途中碰到的最大“难题”。
14．解析：选D。推理判断题。根据最后一段中的“It's
this
go getting
attitude
that
I
firmly
believe
needs
to
be
encouraged
and
developed
among
today's
young
people.”可以看出，作者提Ryan
Farquharson主要是想引出他说的话。作者认为当今年轻人都应该有他的这种态度。
15．解析：选A。推理判断题。根据第二段内容可知，面对别人的质疑，作者并未放弃，而是通过努力让别人改变对自己的看法，由此可以看出作者很有决心；再根据第二段中的“my
willingness
to
give
back
and
reward
the
communities
which
support
me”不难看出，作者非常慷慨。
Ⅱ.七选五
(2017·湖南长沙市长郡中学月考)When
we
are
little,
we
know
nothing
about
the
rights
and
responsibilities
of
adulthood.____1____Therefore,
if
we
like
a
certain
toy
or
if
we
want
to
eat
a
certain
type
of
chocolate,
we
think
that
our
parents
will
have
to
buy
that
for
us.
We
don't
care
that
they
possibly
have
not
enough
money
for
that.
If
they
don't
carry
out
our
wish,
we'll
begin
to
cry.____2____Whenever
we
begin
to
cry,
we'll
get
what
we
want.
Still,
little
by
little,
we
realize
that
our
parents
can't
offer
us
all
that
we
want
for
certain
reasons.
We
then
also
understand
that
parents
have
their
rights.
They
have
the
right
to
scold
us
when
we
do
something
wrong
or
when
they
find
out
that
we
have
lied
to
them.____3____They
choose
our
clothes,
the
food
we
eat,
the
school
we
will
study
at,
the
hours
when
we
should
go
out
to
play
and
the
time
we
have
to
return
home.
4____They
are
the
ones
to
be
blamed
later
if
we
don't
receive
proper
education.
That's
why
when
we
beat
a
classmate
at
the
kindergarten,
parents
are
the
ones
to
apologize
for
our
deeds
in
front
of
the
teacher
and
the
classmate's
parents.
And
when
we
get
ill,
they
are
responsible
for
not
taking
good
care
of
us
and
for
dressing
us
inadequately.
The
moment
we
become
teenagers,
we
notice
that
we
should
be
responsible
for
our
behavior
in
society.Now
we
have
the
right
to
be
independent.____5____It
is
supposed
that
we
are
mature
enough
to
solve
our
problems
and
to
make
people
around
trust
us.
For
some
of
us,
this
is
a
difficult
test
to
pass,
but
it
is
the
best
method
to
see
if
we
are
capable
of
taking
our
place
in
society.
A．However,
it's
also
time
for
us
to
give
explanations
when
we
do
something
wrong.
B．But
at
the
same
time
they
are
responsible
for
many
things
that
happen
to
us.
C．Moreover,
they
have
the
right
to
make
choices
for
us
when
we
are
little.
D．We
should
believe
we
can
do
them
by
ourselves.
E．This
is
a
child's
important
weapon
to
threaten
his/her
parents.
F．As
a
matter
of
fact,
parents
have
a
lot
of
things
to
be
concerned
about.
G．We
think
our
parents
should
offer
us
all
we
need.
【解题导语】 当我们小的时候，我们没有意识到父母的权利和责任。但当我们长大以后，我们也需要背负属于自己的权利和责任。
1．解析：选G。根据上文“When
we
are
little，we
know
nothing
about
the
rights
and
responsibilities
of
adulthood”(当我们小的时候，我们对成年人的权利和责任一无所知)和下文的“Therefore，if
we
like
a
certain
toy
or
if
we
want
to
eat
a
certain
type
of
chocolate，we
think
that
our
parents
will
have
to
buy
that
for
us”(因此，如果我们喜欢某个玩具或者想吃某种类型的巧克力，我们认为我们的父母必须给我们买)可知，此处应该填一个起承上启下作用的句子，故G项“我们认为我们的父母应该给我们提供我们所需的一切”符合语境。
2．解析：选E。根据上文中的“If
they
don't
carry
out
our
wish，we'll
begin
to
cry”(如果我们的愿望没有被满足，我们就会开始哭)和下文的“Whenever
we
begin
to
cry，we'll
get
what
we
want”(每当我们开始哭，我们就会得到自己想要的东西)可知，E项承上启下，表示“这是一个孩子威胁他/她父母的重要武器”。
3．解析：选C。根据上文的内容可知，父母有他们自己的权利，当我们做错事或者撒谎的时候，他们有权利批评我们。而下文提到父母为我们作的各种各样的选择。故C项承上启下，表示“而且，他们有权利在我们小的时候为我们作选择”。
4．解析：选B。上一段的内容介绍了父母拥有的权利，而本段却提到了“They
are
the
ones
to
be
blamed
later
if
we
don't
receive
proper
education”(如果我们没有得到适当的教育，他们事后会被责备)，故B项承上启下，表示“但是与此同时，他们要为发生在我们身上的许多事情负责”。
5．解析：选A。根据上文中的“Now
we
have
the
right
to
be
independent”(现在我们有权利独立了)和下文中的“we
are
mature
enough
to
solve
our
problems”(我们成熟到足以解决自己的问题了)可知，A项承上启下，表示“但是，当我们做错事的时候，也到了我们作解释的时候了”。Unit

Ⅰ.阅读理解
A
(2017·湖北武汉调研)Today
we
were
heading
out
to
what
is
arguably
one
of
the
most
beautiful
natural
wonders
of
this
region,
Saklikent
Gorge
(峡谷)，a
300 meter deep
canyon
that
is
close
to
Fethiye.
However,
first，we
had
to
enter
the
canyon.
Before
us
was
a
raging
river
about
20
meters
across,
and
we
would
have
to
wade
(跋涉)
through
to
get
to
the
entrance
of
the
gorge.
I
lost
my
breath
when
my
foot
made
contact
with
the
water.
My
whole
foot
had
turned
numb.
I
shot
out
of
the
water,
fast
as
a
rabbit,
screaming
like
a
wild
dog.
I'm
sure
it
was
a
sight
to
see.
Dad
and
Lalika
seemed
to
bear
it
better,
as
they
were
the
first
to
begin
heading
through
the
fast
flowing
waters.
Soon
it
was
up
to
their
knees,
but
battling
their
way
through
they
were
the
first
of
our
family
to
make
it
across.
During
this
time
I
was
considering
if
I
really
wanted
to
go
through
with
this.
The
look
on
Mom's
face
showed
me
that
there
was
no
alternative.
She
took
my
hand
and
we
began
making
our
way
through
the
ice cold
water
to
the
sound
of
Lalika's
cheers.
I
nearly
slipped
at
one
point
but
thankfully
I
recovered
in
time
and
Mom
and
I
came
out
of
the
water
half
dry
and
very
happy.
Then
the
canyon
was
in
front
of
us.I
began
to
wade
through
the
softest
flowing
grey
clay
that
had
deposited
itself
over
thousands
of
years
between
this
magnificent
Moorish
pink
gorge
towering
over
me.
I
was
surprised
that
the
locals
hadn't
already
made
a
beauty
industry
out
of
this,
mining
this
natural
resource,
when
I
remembered
that
thankfully,
it
was
a
protected
national
possession，located
in
a
national
park.
That
didn't
stop
Dad
and
Lalika
from
making
a
mud
pack,
as
the
two
of
them
smoothed
the
liquid
clay
all
over
their
faces,
arms
and
legs.
The
mud
also
made
great
war
paint
and
Lalika
and
I
had
a
really
fun
time
applying
it
before
role
playing
a
fierce
battle
of
the
clans
(家族).
After
about
45
minutes
of
walking,
we
came
to
a
fork
in
the
canyon,
and
we
decided
to
return.

Melbourne,
Australia
Melbourne
is
a
hot spot
travel
destination,
and
it's
easy
to
see
why
with
its
beautiful
beaches
and
busy
city
life.
Why
it's
a
great
choice:
Australia
as
a
whole
is
considered
a
safe
destination
for
international
travel,
and
because
of
that,
many
solo
travelers
go
there.
As
an
English speaking
country,
you
won't
be
faced
with
any
language
barriers.
Melbourne
is
easy
to
get
around
because
you
can
walk
or
bike
practically
anywhere!
Thailand
Thailand
is
great
for
solo
travelers—perhaps
because
it
is
one
of
the
Buddhist
mindsets,
which
promote
equality
among
the
sexes.
Why
it's
a
great
choice:
Thailand
is
known
for
its
friendly
atmosphere,
and
as
a
travel
hot spot,
there
are
plenty
of
chances
to
meet
other
like minded
travelers.
Well
known
for
being
very
cheap，especially
in
the
north.
A
good
choice
if
you
want
to
get
away
on
a
budget.
Thailand
has
a
lot
to
offer,
from
the
party central
Bangkok
to
beautiful
beaches
and
tropical
(热带)
jungle.
Hong
Kong,
China
Hong
Kong
is
a
great
place
to
relax
for
solo
travelers
as
it
is
full
of
“Zen
moments”，
such
as
beautiful
gardens
and
T'ai
Chi
classes.
Why
it's
a
great
choice:
Hong
Kong
is
regarded
as
one
of
the
safest
cities
in
the
world.
If
you're
not
well traveled,
or
perhaps
a
bit
tired
of
things
like
language
barriers,
Hong
Kong
is
a
great
place
to
start,
as
it
mixes
both
Eastern
and
Western
at
the
same
time.
Bali,
Indonesia
Bali
is
a
spiritual
place
with
yoga,
spas,
healthy
food
and
beaches.
The
combination
of
friendly
people
and
splendidly
visual
culture
has
made
Bali
Indonesia
number
one
tourist
attraction.
Why
it's
so
great:
You
won't
be
the
only
solo
traveler
in
Bali.Everyone
is
known
for
being
extremely
friendly
and
you're
sure
to
meet
some
amazing
characters
along
the
way.
As
a
Hindu
island，Bali
is
the
perfect
place
for
a
relaxing
and
spiritual
retreat(静修).
The
Sacred
Monkey
Forest
in
Ubud
is
fantastic—if
you
like
monkeys,
anyway.

D
(2017·辽宁沈阳三测)Along
with
its
neighbors,
Sweden
features
near
the
top
of
most
sex equality
rankings.
The
World
Economic
Forum
rates
it
as
having
one
of
the
narrowest
sex
gaps
in
the
world.
Sweden
is
not
only
a
good
place
for
a
woman,
but
it
appears
to
be
one
for
new
dads.
Close
to
ninety
percent
of
Swedish
fathers
take
paternity
leave(陪产假).
Last
year
some
340,
000
dads
took
a
total
of
12
million
days'
leave,
that
is,
approximately
seven
weeks
each.
Women
take
even
more
leave
days
to
spend
time
with
their
children,
but
the
gap
is
shrinking.
Why
do
Swedish
dads
take
so
much
time
off
work
to
raise
their
children
Forty
years
ago
Sweden
became
the
first
country
in
the
world
to
introduce
a
paid
parental leave
allowance.
Benefits
consisted
of
ninety
percent
of
wages
for
180
days
per
child,
and
parents
were
free
to
share
the
days
between
them
in
whatever
way
they
pleased.
But
the
policy
was
hardly
a
hit
with
dads:
in
the
policy's
first
year
men
took
only
0.5%
of
all
paid
parental
leave.
Today
they
take
a
quarter
of
it.
One
reason
is
that
the
policy
has
become
more
generous,
with
the
number
of
paid
leave
days
for
the
first
child
increasing
from
180
to
480.
In
1995
the
first
so called
“daddy
month”
was
introduced.
Under
this
reform，families
in
which
each
parent
took
at
least
one
month
of
leave
received
an
additional
month
to
add
to
their
total
allowance.
The
policy
was
expanded
in
2002
so
that
if
the
mother
and
father
each
took
at
least
two
months'
leave,
the
family
would
get
two
extra
months.Some
politicians
now
want
to
go
further,
advocating
that
the
present
system
of
shared
leave
be
turned
into
one
of
personal
rights,
under
which
mothers
should
be
allowed
to
take
only
half
of
the
family's
allowance,
with
the
rest
reserved
for
fathers.
Since
Swedish
men
started
to
take
more
responsibility
for
child
upbringing,
women
have
seen
both
their
incomes
and
levels
of
self reported
happiness
increase.
Paying
dads
to
change
nappies(尿布)
and
hang
out
at
playgrounds
seems
to
benefit
the
whole
family.
13．What
can
be
a
suitable
title
for
the
passage
A．Swedish
Sex
Equality
B．Swedish
Fathers'
Paternity
Leave
C．Swedish
New
Dad
Policy
D．Swedish
New
Fathers'
Family
Role
14．Why
does
Sweden
appear
a
good
place
for
new
dads
A．Sweden
has
the
smallest
global
sex
gap.
B．They
feed
their
children
instead
of
mothers.
C．Most
of
them
are
provided
with
paternity
leave.
D.
Swedish
fathers
take
more
leave
days
than
mothers.
15．How
has
the
policy
changed
over
time
A．Fathers
can
have
longer
paternity
leave.
B．Paternity
leave
decreases
fathers'
incomes.
C．Fathers
take
more
responsibility
than
mothers.
D．Leave
days
are
divided
equally
between
parents.
16．What's
the
mothers'
attitude
towards
the
policy
A．Uncertain.
B．Approving.
C．Opposed.
D．Cautious.
【语篇导读】 瑞典是世界上第一个实行带薪父母假政策的国家。本文重点介绍了父亲陪产假政策的发展情况。
13．解析：选B。考查标题判断。通读全文可知，本文的主题句是第一段的最后一句“Why
do
Swedish
dads
take
so
much
time
off
work
to
raise
their
children.”；据此可知，本文主要说明在瑞典除了母亲可以休产假外，父亲也有很长时间的陪产假，故B项最能概括文意。
14．解析：选C。考查细节理解。根据第一段的第三、四句可知，近90%的做父亲的瑞典男子可享受陪产假，故对于刚当上父亲的人来说，瑞典是个好地方。故C项正确。
15．解析：选A。考查推理判断。根据第三段的“with
the
number
of
paid
leave
days
for
the
first
child
increasing
from
180
to
480”可知，生育第一个孩子时所拿到的产假薪资由180骤升到480。故A项正确。
16．解析：选B。考查细节理解。根据最后一段第一句中的“women
have
seen
both
their
incomes
and
levels
of
self reported
happiness
increase”可知，父亲的陪产假增加了母亲的幸福感；据此可以判断，母亲们赞同产假陪护，故B项正确。

How
to
Be
Safe
When
You're
Traveling
on
Your
Own
1．Be
sure
to
arrive
during
daytime.
1____People
looking
to
prey
(欺骗)
on
tourists
can
do
it
with
ease
at
night.
Make
sure
your
arrival
time
will
get
you
where
you're
going
during
daylight
hours.
2．____2____
Make
sure
to
keep
your
money
in
a
money
belt,
keep
your
credit
cards
in
another
place,
and
your
passport
in
another.
If
the
worst
happens,
and
something
gets
lost
or
stolen,
you'll
be
better
equipped
to
help
yourself
as
long
as
not
everything
is
gone.
3．Look
for
people
to
group
up
with.
Have
you
met
friendly
people
at
the
bar
or
the
pool
See
if
they
want
to
join
you
when
you
go
out
for
dinner.
See
if
there's
a
tour
group
you
can
join
up
with.____3____
4．____4____
It
can
be
a
struggle
to
carry
a
lot
of
bags
around
on
your
own.
If
criminals
see
you
struggling,
they
may
use
the
opportunity
to
grab
one
of
your
suitcases.
Before
you
leave,
be
sure
you
can
carry
your
luggage
quickly
and
smoothly.
If
you
can't,
it's
time
to
cut
down
your
bags.
5．Trust
your
instincts
(直觉)．
5____If
you
have
a
bad
feeling
about
something,
it's
probably
for
a
reason
and
it's
best
to
go
with
your
instincts.
Even
if
your
concerns
are
nothing,
it
can't
hurt
to
listen
to
them.
A．Store
important
things
separately.
B．Travel
with
as
little
luggage
as
possible.
C．Never
get
close
to
possible
dangers
wherever
you
are.
D．Surrounding
yourself
with
others
will
help
keep
you
protected.
E．Ensure
that
your
family
and
friends
know
exactly
where
you
are
anytime.
F．This
is
when
bus
stations,
airports,
and
hotels
will
be
at
their
most
active.
G．If
something
makes
you
suspicious
or
nervous,
it's
better
to
be
careful
and
avoid
it.

【语篇导读】 本文讲的是用英语写日记对提高英语写作非常有效，因为它短小精炼，且费时不多。为了解决在写作过程中遇到的困难，作者建议准备一个笔记本和一本汉英词典，也可以向英语老师求助。
1．effective 句意：用英语写日记是提高英语写作能力的有效方法之一。名词ways需要形容词修饰，故填effective，意为“有效的”。
2．Compared 句意：和其他写作形式相比，……。compare
with
...意为“和……相比”。句中已有谓语动词is，故设空为非谓语动词，it与compare之间为逻辑上的被动关系，故应用过去分词形式compared作状语。
3．less 句意：……英语日记比较短，而且花费的时间更少。这里讲的是写英语日记的好处，故用时应该是更少，由前面的shorter可知此处填little的比较级less。
4．If 句意：如果我们坚持这种练习，慢慢地，我们就能学会怎样用英语来表达自己。根据语境，设空处引导条件状语从句，表示“如果”。故填If。
5．difficulties 句意：在用英语写日记的过程中，我们一定会遇到很多困难。run
up
against意为“遇到；偶遇”，从下文的trouble和hard可知此处想说的是遇到困难，因为空前有many，故填复数形式。
6．expression 句意：……我们经常会在找到合适的词汇和短语来表达我们的思想上遇到困难。空前为及物动词give，故知此处填名词expression。
7．am
concerned 句意：依我看，……。as
far
as
sb./sth.be
concerned意为“就……而言，依某人的观点”。
8．suggestion 句意：……我的建议是我们要有一个笔记本和一本汉英词典放在方便拿取的地方。形容词性物主代词后要用名词，由后面的is可知此处填名词单数形式suggestion。
9．of 句意：总之，我认为用英语写日记对我们写作技巧的提高非常有用。此处运用了“be
of＋great/much＋n.”的结构，相当于该名词对应的形容词。此处be
of
use相当于useful。
10．the 此处特指of后写作技巧的提高。故填定冠词the。

Looking_back_to_the_National_English_Speaking_Competition_I_took_part_in_several_days_ago,_I_have_a_lot_to_share_with_you.
Firstly,
I
feel
really
delighted
that
I've
won
the
first
prize
in
the
competition，which
makes
me
understand
the
true
meaning
of
the
proverb
“No
pains,
no
gains.”
Besides,
I've
established
the
friendship
with
students
from
all
over
our
country,
from
whom
I've
learned
a
lot.More
importantly,
taking
this
competition
has
enabled
me
to
overcome
my
fear
of
speaking
in
public,
thus
developing
my
self confidence.
Additionally,
I
owe
many
thanks
to
my
teachers
and
judges,
without
whose
help,
I
couldn't
have
done
such
an
excellent
job.
To
sum
up，I
will
always
treasure
this
meaningful
and
memorable
experience.
