答案与解析
【文章大意】 本文是一篇说明文，主要介绍了英国海边旅游度假的发展史。
1. 答案 invention
解析 考查词性转换。定冠词the一般用来修饰名词，且与介词of相呼应，故用所给词的名词形式invention。
2. 答案 were
解析 考查动词的时态和主谓一致。与语境中and went呼应可知，此处应用一般过去时，故填were。
3. 答案 However
解析 考查副词。根据空格前一句中had very little time off work和空格后introduced four ‘Bank Holidays’可知，所填词前后两句之间是逻辑上的转折关系。
4. 答案 to have
解析 考查固定词组。allow sb.to do sth.意为“允许某人做某事”。
5. 答案 which
解析 考查定语从句。which引导非限制性定语从句，在从句中作主语，指代其前整个句子。
6. 答案 of
解析 考查介词。take advantage of意为“利用”。
7. 答案 rising
解析 考查非谓语动词。此处空格后面是名词incomes，故应用rise的-ing形式作前置定语。
8. 答案 were built
解析 考查动词的时态和语态。此处用一般过去时，且build和其主语cheap hotels构成逻辑上的被动关系，故用一般过去时的被动语态。
9. 答案 sitting
解析 考查非谓语动词。enjoy doing sth.意为“乐意做某事”。
10. 答案 the
解析 考查冠词。seaside不是第一次在文章中出现，其前应用定冠词the修饰，表示特指。
Ⅱ.短文改错
假定英语课上老师要求同桌之间交换修改作文，请你修改你同桌写的以下作文。文中共有10处语言错误，每句中最多有两处。每处错误仅涉及一个单词的增加、删除或修改。
增加：在缺词处加一个漏字符号(∧)，并在其下面写出该加的词。

修改：在错的词下画一横线，并在该词下面写出修改后的词。
注意：
1. 每处错误及其修改均仅限一词。
2. 只允许修改10处，多者(从第11处起)不计分。

【参考范文】
This quotation from Jonathan Lockwood Huie tells us that real friends can give us strength and hope when we are in trouble and real friends can benefit from each other. We need such friends as can point out our mistakes directly and have the same life goals as us. Once I failed again and again in my math and lost interest in it, it was my best friend that encouraged me not to give up and offered help in time. With his kind and selfless help, I gradually caught up with others.
So I say we need friends but what we most need is a friend that can enrich our life.

Ⅰ.阅读理解
阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中选出最佳选项。
Losing weight comes with a lot of health benefits — including making your brain sharper.
Yes, it turns out that overweight may damage cognitive functions such as memory and attention. There have been few studies of overweight and cognitive functioning, possibly because it is generally believed that it is not a primary risk cause for poor cognitive performance. Losing weight, therefore, may help improve these mental functions, according to a new research led by John Gunstad, assistant professor of psychology at Kent State University.
Growing evidence suggests that being fat is linked to cognitive deficits(缺陷). So Gunstad and his team guessed that losing weight might improve mental fun_ction. For their study, they measured memory and attention in a group of 150 overweight participants, some of whom had some kind of operation for weight loss and some did not. All of the volunteers completed mental skills tests to assess their abilities of memory and attention at the beginning of the study, and again 12 weeks later. To begin with, about 24% of the patients showed damaged learning and 23% showed signs of poor memory when tested. At the end of the study, those who had lost weight after operation improved their scores into the average or above average range for cognitive functions. Scores for the volunteers who didn’t lose weight dropped even further.
The study helped Gunstad to find out whether losing weight had any effect on mental fun_ction, Now that he’s seen the positive effect that weight loss can have on memory and attention, he says he will next study those who choose to lose weight by the traditional way — eating healthier and getting more active. He expects that losing weight in this way will have a similarly positive effect on the brain. “If we can improve the condition with operations, then we can probably produce the same change with behavioral weight loss as well，” he says.
1. There is less research on overweight and cognitive functions because researchers ________．
A. believe overweight only affects our body
B. have focused on ways to sharpen people’s mind
C. do not consider overweight a main cause for low cognitive ability
D. are clear about the relation between weight and mental functions
2. The result of Gunstad’s study shows that ________．
A. losing weight has little effect on people’s memory
B. losing weight can improve people’s mental functions
C. overweight people are likely to have psychology problems
D. overweight people’s abilities of concentration differ greatly
3. What is Gunstad planning to prove next in his research?
A. Slim people are smarter than overweight people.
B. Healthy diet is better than exercise in losing weight.
C. Traditional ways of losing weight are better than operation.
D. Overweight people will get smarter by taking more exercise.
4. Which of the following is the best title for the text?
A. Body Weight and Health
B. Losing Weight by Operation
C. Ways to Improve Mental Functions
D. Losing Weight to Sharpen Your Mind
答案与解析
【文章大意】 本文是一篇科普类文。中心是“减肥可以使人更聪明”。Gunstad的研究表明减肥能提高人们的脑力功能，不管是通过手术减肥还是锻炼控制饮食都是有效果的。
1. 答案 C
解析 细节理解题。从文章第二段中的There have been few studies of overweight and cognitive functioning, possibly because it is generally believed that it is not a primary risk cause for poor cognitive performance.可知，很少关于过度肥胖和认知功能的调查，因为研究人员没有认为过度肥胖是认知水平低的原因。
2. 答案 B
解析 细节理解题。根据文章第二段中的Losing weight, therefore, may help improve these mental functions, according to a new research led by John Gunstad, assistant professor of psychology at Kent State University.可知Gunstad的研究表明减肥能提高人们的脑力功能。故B项正确。
3. 答案 D
解析 细节理解题。根据文章最后一段中的he says he will next study those who choose to lose weight by the traditional way — eating healthier and getting more active.可知Gunstad下一步在调查中想要证明的是通过锻炼过度肥胖的人可以变得聪明。
4. 答案 D
解析 主旨大意题。根据文章第一段Losing weight comes with a lot of health benefits — including making your brain sharper.可知，这篇文章主要讲述减肥可以使人变得更聪明。故D项作为标题最好。
Ⅱ.阅读填空
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。

答案 1－3 CAD
(2017·日照模拟)An 18-year-old girl Anna Meier from Austria is taking her parents to court for posting over 500 photos of her on Facebook since 2009, without her permission.
Anna has apparently become fed up with her parents’ refusal to take down the embarrassing photos of her at an early age, and is now seeking justice in court. She told the magazine that even though she was 11 years old when her parents started sharing her photos with several hundreds of Facebook friends, they went as far as to post pictures of her as a baby, without ever asking if it was alright with her. “They knew no shame and no limit — and didn’t care whether it was a picture of me sitting on the toilet or lying naked in my bed — every stage was photographed and then made public，”the girl said.
The girl added that she was only able to see the photos posted on Facebook by her parents when she was 14, after setting up her own account on it. Again and again, Anna asked her parents to remove the photos of her immediately, but they refused. Angry and upset, she felt that she had no other way but to take them to court, which she did as soon as she turned 18, this year. “I’m tired of not being taken seriously by my parents，”she said.
Anna’s lawyer claims they have a good chance of winning the case in court, if it can be proven that the images have violated her rights to a personal life. But, based on similar cases and according to Austrian privacy laws, if the parents lose, they may be forced to pay their daughter a fine of ￡3，000 to ￡10, 000.
But Anna’s parents, however, see nothing wrong with posting baby photos of her. “I consider it my right to publish these photos，”her father said.“We have posted no more photos of our daughter since she stopped allowing us to photograph her. We also have baby photos of her that can only be seen by a limited group of 700 Facebook friends.”
It’s reported that Anna has moved out of her parents’ home and is living with some girls in a rented apartment.
4. Which of the following is true according to the passage?
A. Anna started to ask her parents to remove 500 photos at 11.
B. Around 700 of her parents’ Facebook friends shared the pictures.
C. Alma’s parents felt shameful for what they had done on Facebook.
D. Anna’s parents started to post her pictures on Facebook when she was 14.
5. What made Anna decide to take her parents to court?
A. The pictures of her sitting on the toilet.
B. Her parents’ attitude towards her request.
C. The hate for her parents since early childhood.
D. The comments of her parents’ Facebook friends.
6. If Anna’s parents lose in the case, they will have to pay a fine of at least ________.
A. ￡3，000 B. ￡4，000
C. ￡8，000 D. ￡10，000
7. What can we infer from the passage?
A. The girl will surely win the case in court.
B. The girl and her parents have made peace.
C. The girl has a tense relationship with her parents.
D. The author supports the girl accusing her parents.
答案与解析
【文章大意】 文章谈到一个18岁女孩因为父母将她的幼年隐私照片上传朋友圈而引起矛盾，进而引发诉讼的故事。
4. 答案 B
解析 细节理解题。根据文章内容，Anna的父母从2009年开始上传图片到脸书，但Anna并不知晓，因此不是A和D项。他们认为把自己孩子的生活照传到网络，并且是在私人空间和朋友们分享，无关紧要，并不感到自己的行为很无耻，因此C项也被排除。正确选项为B。
5. 答案 B
解析 细节理解题。从14岁起，Anna就发现了父母往脸书上传她的照片，因此她要求父母删除，但父母始终对她的要求置之不理，以至于她忍无可忍决定诉诸法律。但文章并未提及她在别的时间与父母关系紧张的情况，也未提到脸书上父母的好友们有任何评论，因此排除C、D两项。选项A只是引起她反感的部分原因。正确答案为B。
6. 答案 A
解析 细节理解题。文章第四段提到，假如她父母败诉，将受到3 000至10 000欧元的罚款，因此“至少”(at least)3 000欧元。因此正确答案为A项。
7. 答案 C
解析 推理判断题。就目前尚未开庭的情况看，Anna已经从家里搬出来和朋友租房子住，因此她和父母之间关系紧张，因此选C项。A项(Anna一定会胜诉)和D项(作者支持Anna起诉她的父母)均没有从文中找到足够的依据。B项也与事实不符。
Chimps(黑猩猩)will cooperate in certain ways, like gathering in war parties to protect their territory. But beyond the minimum requirements as social beings, they have little instinct(本能)to help one another. Chimps in the wild seek food for themselves. Even chimp mothers regularly decline to share food with their children, who are able from a young age to gather their own food.
In the laboratory, chimps don’t naturally share food either. If a chimp is put in a cage where he can pull in one plate of food for himself or, with no greater effort, a plate that also provides food for a neighbor in the next cage, he will pull at random — he just doesn’t care whether his neighbor gets food or not. Chimps are truly selfish.
Human children, on the other hand, are extremely cooperative. From the earliest ages, they desire to help others, to share information and to participate in achieving common goals. The psychologist Michael Tomasello has studied this cooperativeness in a series of experiments with very young children. He finds that if babies aged 18 months see an unrelated adult with hands full trying to open a door, almost all will immediately try to help.
There are several reasons to believe that the urges to help, inform and share are not taught, but naturally possessed in young children. One is that these instincts appear at a very young age before most parents have started to train children to behave socially. Another is that the helping behaviors are not improved if the children are remanded. A third reason is that social intelligence develops in children before their general cognitive(认知的)skills, at least when compared with chimps. In tests conducted by Tomasello, the human children did no better than the chimps on the physical world tests but were considerably better at understanding the social world.
The core of what children’s minds have and chimps’ don’t is what Tomasello calls shared intentionality. Part of this ability is that they can infer what others know or are thinking. But beyond that, even very young children want to be part of a shared purpose. They actively seek to be part of a “we”， a group that intends to work toward a shared goal.
8. What can we learn from the experiment with chimps?
A. Chimps seldom care about others’ interests.
B. Chimps tend to provide food for their children.
C. Chimps like to take in their neighbors’ food.
D. Chimps naturally share food with each other.
9. Michael Tomasello’s tests on young children indicate that they ________．
A. have the instinct to help others
B. know how to offer help to adults
C. know the world better than chimps
D. trust adults with their hands full
10. The passage is mainly about ________．
A. the helping behaviors of young children
B. ways to train children’s shared intentionality
C. cooperation as a distinctive human nature
D. the development of intelligence in children
答案与解析
【文章大意】 通过实验，对比黑猩猩与人类的主观能动性。
8. 答案 A
解析 推理判断题。由第二段最后一句．.. he just doesn’t care whether his neighbor gets food or not. Chimps are truly selfish.可知黑猩猩很少去关心别人的兴趣。
9. 答案 A
解析 细节理解题。由第三段最后一句He finds that if babies aged 18 months see an unrelated adult with hands full trying to open a door, almost all will immediately try to help.可知小孩有帮助别人的本能。
10. 答案 C
解析 主旨大意题。文章第一段为主题段。由一、二句Chimps(黑猩猩)will cooperate in certain ways, like gathering in war parties to protect their territory. But beyond the minimum requirements as social beings, they have little instinct(本能)to help one another.可知帮助合作是人的特性，故选C项。

阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中选出最佳选项。
Last week I talked with some of my students about what they wanted to do after they graduated, and what kind of job prospects they thought they had.
Given that I teach students who are training to be doctors, I was surprised to find that most thought that they would not be able to get the jobs they wanted without “outside help”. “What kind of help is that？” I asked, expecting them to tell me that they would need a relative or family friend to help them out.
“Surgery(外科手术)”， one replied.
I was pretty alarmed by that response. It seems that the graduates of today are increasingly willing to go under the knife to get ahead of others when it comes to getting a job.
One girl told me that she was considering surgery to increase her height. “They break your legs, put in special extending screws, and slowly expand the gap between the two ends of the bone as it re-grows, you can get at least 5 cm taller！”
At that point, I was shocked. I am short, I can’t deny that, but I don’t think I would put myself through months of agony(痛苦)just to be a few centimeters taller. I don’t even bother to wear shoes with thick soles, as I’m not trying to hide the fact that I am just not tall!
It seems to me that there is a trend toward wanting “perfection”， and that is an ideal that just does not exist in reality.
No one is born perfect, yet magazines, TV shows and movies present images of thin, tall, beautiful people as being the norm. Advertisements for slimming aids, beauty treatments and cosmetic surgery clinics fill the pages of newspapers, further creating an idea that “perfection” is a requirement, and that it must be purchased, no matter what the cost. In my opinion, skills, rather than appearance, should determine how successful a person is in his chosen career.
1. We can know from the passage that the author works as ________．
A. a doctor B. a model
C. a teacher D. a reporter
2. Many graduates today turn to cosmetic surgery to ________．
A. marry a better man/woman
B. become a model
C. get an advantage over others in job-hunting
D. attract more admirers
3. According to the passage, the author believes that ________．
A. everyone should purchase perfection, whatever the cost
B. it’s right for graduates to ask for others to help them out in hunting for jobs
C. it is one’s appearance instead of skills that really matters in one’s career
D. media are to blame for misleading young people in their seeking for surgery
4. The best title for the passage should be “ ________”．
A. Young Graduates Have Higher Expectation
B. Young Graduates Look to Surgery for Better Jobs
C. Young Graduates’ Opinion About Cosmetic Surgery
D. Young Graduates Face a Different Situation in Job-hunt
答案与解析
【文章大意】 本文讲述了很多毕业生为了找到好工作选择做美容手术，使自己在找工作的时候更具有优势，他们这样做是受媒体的影响。
1. 答案 C
解析 细节理解题。根据文章第一段Last week I talked with some of my students about what they wanted to do after they graduated, and what kind of job prospects they thought they had.可知：作者应该是一位老师，句中提到的“talked with my students”为关键信息。
2. 答案 C
解析 判断推理题。从文章第四段的表述I was pretty alarmed by that response. It seems that the graduates of today are increasingly willing to go under the knife to get ahead of others when it comes to getting a job.可知：现在很多毕业生求助于做美容手术是为了在找工作的时候比别人有优势。故C项正确。
3. 答案 D
解析 细节理解题。根据文章最后一段中的No one is born perfect, yet magazines, TV shows and movies present images of thin, tall, beautiful people as being the norm.可知：作者相信在追求美容手术这方面，媒体(杂志、电视、电影)应该负起责任，故D项正确。
4. 答案 B
解析 主旨大意题。本文主要讲述为了找到一份更加理想的工作，很多毕业生去做美容手术以使自己在找工作的过程中更具优势。所以“年轻毕业生为找更好工作寻求做手术”最佳，故B项正确。

Write a Good Interesting Blog
If you want to avoid being frustrated for writing a blog that was never read, here are some ways to make a good interesting blog.
__1__ Boring topics are generally not good for blogs unless you are genius writers, who can create beautiful prose even when writing about the most ordinary things.
Pick a topic you know and are passionate about. __2__ If you like video games, for example, write one detailing your experiences of playing them. Note that this kind of blog is different from a “Dear Diary” blog.
Avoid writing your own biography. A “Dear Diary” blog isn’t interesting to other people unless you are a really significant person. Think about it: who would really want to know what you ate for dinner? This kind of blog is self－indulgent(放纵自己的)and unnecessary. __3__
Funny blog posts tend to become vital. Humorous charts, pictures, and videos are great supplements to your text. __4__ Try to think of unique things to write about, or write an opposing view on a certain subject.
__5__ People hate being led on and tricked into reading a blog post that they expect to be helpful, just to realize that it is a subjective and promotional one.
A. It does not offer anything to the people reading it.
B. Do not rehash or rewrite blog posts from famous blogs.
C. Write your blog clearly.
D. It should be one that other people can relate to.
E. Inform your readers from the beginning.
F. Choose an interesting topic.
G. Write your blog about your personal things.
答案与解析
【文章大意】 这是一篇说明文，主要介绍了怎样才能写出比较好的博客的方法，如不要模仿著名的博客，要写出独特的或者自己真实的意见等。
1. 答案 F
解析 根据空格后面Boring topics are generally not good for blogs中的topics与F项Choose an interesting topic信息呼应。
2. 答案 D
解析 空格前面讲到了Pick a topic that you know and are passionate about，根据句意可知D项中的it指的是前面的topic，one相当于a topic。
3. 答案 A
解析 根据空格前面的句子This kind of blog is self－indulgent (放纵自己的) and unnecessary这种类型的博客是放纵的并且没有必要存在的，与A项It does not offer anything to the people reading it没有给读者提供什么信息呼应。
4. 答案 B
解析 根据空格后面的Try to think of unique things to write about，or write an opposing view on a certain subject写独特的事情，或者相反的观点，可知这与B项Do not rehash or rewrite blog posts from famous blogs信息呼应。
5. 答案 E
解析 根据空格后面的People hate being led on and tricked into reading a blog post that they expect to be helpful可知与E选项Inform your readers from the beginning信息一致。

1. ________ 2. ________ 3. ________
4. ________ 5. ________ 6. ________
7. ________ 8. ________ 9. ________
10. ________
答案与解析
【文章大意】 本文是一篇记叙文，讲述了Louis下班回家后找停车位及第二天发生的故事。
1. 答案 longer
解析 考查比较级。空格后有比较级符号than，故空格处应填写long的比较级形式longer。
2. 答案 drove
解析 考查动词的时态。故事发生在过去，本句也是在描述那天晚上的事情，所以空格处应用一般过去时。
3. 答案 but
解析 考查并列连词。根据空格后all the spaces were full可知，此处指Louis进入停车场后，却发现停车位都满了。空格前后句之间表示转折关系。
4. 答案 looking
解析 考查非谓语动词。空格处与主句谓语drove back之间没有连词，故空格处应使用非谓语动词。主语He与look之间为逻辑上的主动关系，故应用其现在分词形式looking作伴随状语。
5. 答案 spaces
解析 考查名词复数。根据上一句中的spaces可知，space在此处作可数名词，意为“停车(空)位”。且应为复数。故填spaces。
6. 答案 that
解析 考查结果状语从句。句意：Louis太高兴了，(以至于)没想过要去看看入口处的指示牌。so ... that ...意为“如此……以至于……”。
7. 答案 hurried
解析 考查动词的时态。根据空格前的He drove in, parked, and ...可知，此处表示过去的连续动作，是并列关系，故空格处应用一般过去时。
8. 答案 to get
解析 考查非谓语动词。本句表示Louis第二天去停车场取车。空格处应用不定式结构作目的状语。
9. 答案 him
解析 考查代词。空格前有动词tell，其后缺少宾语，因此此处应用he的宾格him。
10. 答案 away
解析 考查副词。上文提到Louis发现车不见了，报警后警察作出解释，因为Louis把车停在了私人停车场，所以他们把车拖走了。take away意为“拿走”。

It was Thanksgiving morning. I was busy preparing the traditional Thanksgiving turkey when the doorbell rang. I opened the front door and saw two small children in rags huddling together on the top step.
“Any old papers, lady？” asked one of them.
I was busy. I wanted to say “no” until I looked down at their feet. They were wearing thin little sandals(凉鞋), wet with heavy snow.
“Come in and I’ll make you a cup of hot cocoa.”
They walked over and sat down at the table. Their wet sandals left marks upon the floor. I served them cocoa and bread to fight against the cold outside. Then I went back to the kitchen and started cooking.
The silence in the front room struck me. I looked in. The girl held the empty cup in her hands, looking at it. The boy asked in a flat voice, “Lady, are you rich？”
“Am I rich? Pity, no！”
I looked at my worn-out slipcovers(椅套). The girl put her cup back in its saucer(茶碟)carefully and said, “Your cups match your saucers.” They left after that, holding their papers against the wind. They had reminded me that I had so much for which to be grateful.
Plain blue china cups and saucers were only worth five pence. But they matched.
I tasted the potatoes and stirred the meat soup. Potatoes and brown meat soup, a roof over our heads, my man with a regular job, these matched, too.
I moved the chairs back from the fire and cleaned the living room. The muddy marks of little sandals were still wet upon my floor. Let them be for a while, I thought, just in case I should begin to forget how rich I am.

(2017·湛江模拟)Put your car keys away and forget about your travel pass — it’s time to do a bit of walking.
National Walking Month is organized every May by Living Streets, an organization that campaigns for the rights and the needs of pedestrians — indeed, the organization was previously known as the Pedestrians’ Association. The association’s aim is to make streets safe, attractive and enjoyable spaces for people to live, work, shop and play. By putting people(rather than vehicles)first, Living Streets wants to create streets and spaces where people feel happier, healthier and more sociable.
The annual campaign gives participants a great opportunity to experience the many virtues(优点)of walking. These include the physical health benefits of becoming fitter; the environmental advantages of not using vehicles(车辆); the joy of local discoveries seeing more of your local area on foot; the enjoyment of walking with other people, whether family, friends or work colleagues and finally the stress relief that comes from walking — walking can clear your head.
Walk to School Week, 19 to 24 May, is part of the month’s activities and its aim is to encourage parents to send children to school on foot, rather than take them in the car or let them use public transport. The movement was started in 1995 with only five participating schools and now two decades later, more than one million children take part.
Similarly, there is Walk to Work Week, 12 to 16 May, where grown-ups are encouraged to walk. In the morning, getting off the bus a stop early or parking a few streets away is a good way to add more steps to the daily total. And during the working day, after having lunch at the desks or in the canteen, take a walk and get some fresh air. Walk home with your workmates and chat away about everything under the sun but work!
4. Living Streets is working to ________．

(2016·四川)A warm drink of milk before bed has long been the best choice for those wanting a good night’s sleep. But now a study has found it really does help people nod off — if it is milked from a cow at night.
Researchers have discovered that “night milk” contains more melatonin(褪黑激素), which has been proven to help people feel sleepy and reduce anxiety.
The study, by researchers from Seoul, South Korea, involved mice being fed with dried milk powder made from cows milked both during the day and at night.
Those given night milk, which contained 10 times the amount of melatonin, were less active and less anxious than those fed with the milk collected during daytime, according to the study published in The Journal of Medicinal Food.
Night milk quickened the start of sleep and caused the mice to sleep longer.
While the effect of cows milk harvested at different time has not been tested on humans up to now, taking melatonin drugs has been suggested to those who are struggling to fall asleep at night.
Previous studies have also indicated that milk can be excellent for helping sleep because of the calcium content, which helps people to relax.
Milk is also sugar-free and additive-free with nutritionists recommending skimmed milk as the best choice before bed as it is the least fattening. The more fat you take in before bedtime, the greater burden you will put on your body at night.
8. According to the text, the mice fed with daytime milk ________．
A. started sleep more easily
B. were more anxious
C. were less active
D. woke up later
9. Which of the following is true of melatonin according to the text?
A. It’s been tested on mice for ten times.
B. It can make people more energetic.
C. It exists in milk in great amount.
D. It’s used in sleeping drugs.
10. What can be a suitable title for the text?
A. Night Milk and Sleep
B. Fat Sugar and Health
C. An Experiment on Mice
D. Milk Drinking and Health
11. How does the author support the theme of the text?
A. By giving examples.
B. By stating arguments.
C. By explaining statistical data.
D. By providing research results.
