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，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。
A
The Oklalhoma teen’s eyes were covered by two blindfolds（眼罩）. She didn’t know she would meet her father, James, after 12-year separation.
“I had actually discussed with her the night before at a restaurant and talked over the details of where we would go and how we would pull them of,” said Amanda, Rory Beth’s mother.
A video shows Amanda led her blindfolded daughter out of their car and guided her across the parking lot of Broken Arrow Lanes in Broken Arrow.
Little did she know, her father was on the sidewalk holding a birthday cake that read, “Happy Birthday Rory Beth, Love Dad.” When the teen slowly pulled down her blindfolds, she was extremely surprised. Both the father and daughter stood silently looking at each other until James finally walked over and hugged her. James only broke their embrace to look at his daughter and hold her face. “There were definitely lots of tears from James, myself, and boys,
and even a few bystanders,” said Amanda.
James was a truck driver who spent a lot of time on the road, so Amanda ended the marriage with him when Rory Beth was a baby. “It was hard to figure out how to make it work,” Amanda said. Amanda felt Rory Beth was now old enough to understand and to ask any questions she may have, so the reunion happened.
The birthday surprise was on June 4, and the father and daughter had seen each other again since, even celebrating Father’s Day together. Amanda said her daughter and James were both delighted to be together.
“She’s already calling him ‘daddy’ and tells him that she loves him.” Amanda said.
1. Why were Rory Beth’s eyes covered?
A. Her eyes are sensitive to light. B. She was ready to receive a surprise.
C. She was playing hide-and-seek. D. She just received an eye operation.
2. What does the underlined word “them” in paragraph 2 refer to?
A. The blindfolds. B. The teen’s eyes.
C. Her birthday presents. D. The details of the party.
3. How did James react when he saw Beth?
A. He laughed happily. B. He couldn’t believe his eye.
C. He shouted and hugged his daughter. D. He couldn’t hold back his tears.
4. How was Rory Beth getting on with her father?
A. She kept him at a distance. B. She couldn’t forgive him.
C. She was happy to be with him. D. She felt it hard to accept him.
【答案】1. B 2. A 3. D 4. C
【解析】这是一篇记叙文。文章记叙了12岁的Rory Beth在父母离婚12年后与父亲再次重聚的情景。
1. 推理判断题。由第一段“The Oklahoma teen’s eyes were covered by two blindfolds (眼罩) . She didn’t know she would meet her father, James, after 12-year separation.”可知，Rory Beth的眼睛被眼罩蒙上，她不知道自己将会见到分离12年的父亲。由此可以推知，她的眼睛被蒙上就是为了给她一个惊喜。故B选项正确。
2. 词义猜测题。由第一段第一句可知，Rory Beth被眼罩遮住眼睛。第二段中的“I had actually discussed with her the night before at a restaurant and talked over the details of where we would go and how we would pull them off”提到，她的母亲前一天晚上和她讨论了如何将“它们”取下来。第四段中的“When the teen slowly pulled down her blindfolds”提到，Rory Beth慢慢地将眼罩摘了下来。很明显，them应该指的是眼罩，故A选项正确。
3. 考查细节理解题。由第四段中的“There were definitely lots of tears from James, myself, and boys, and even a few bystanders”可知，James见到女儿时，哭了。故D选项正确。
4. 推理判断题。由最后一段中的“＂She’s already calling him ‘daddy’ and tells him that she loves him,＂ Amanda said. ＂They’re both very committed.＂”可知，Rory Beth和父亲在一起很开心。C选项正确。
B
BKLYN House Hotel
There are works by Brooklyn artists in this hotel. The 116 rooms are of great value and Manhattan is only 20 minutes away by taxi or subway. The immediate surroundings feel urban—the hotel is by a high-rise public housing project while the nearest commercial street is under elevated（高的）subway tracks—but Bushwick’s best bars and cafes/restaurants are near-by.

【点睛】
事实细节题属于细节类的阅读理解题，一般只针对某个特定的细节，题型可以多种多样。此类题型一般分为两种，第一种是直接理解题，在原文中可以直接找到答案；第二种是词义转换题，正确选项是原文有关词语和句子的转换。做此类试题一定要抓住事件发生的时间、地点、人物、发展过程和结局等环节，所选答案一定要符合原文，切不可望文生义。小题1是直接细节题，在原文中可以直接找到答案。由第一段的“This hotel features works by Brooklyn artists.”可知，BKLYN House Hotel中的装饰着布鲁克林艺术家的作品。故选C。
C
My reason for starting our family tradition of reading in the car was purely selfish: I could not bear listening to A Sesame Street Christmas for another 10 hours. My three children had been addicted to this cassette（磁带）on our previous summer road trips.
As I began to prepare for our next 500-mile car trip, I came across a book—Jim Trelease’s—The Read Aloud Handbook. This could be the answer to my problem. I thought. So I put Roald Dahl’s James and the Giant Peach into my bag. When I began to read aloud the tale of the boy who escapes the bad guys by hiding inside a giant peach, my three kids argued and fought with each other in their seats. But after several lines, they were attracted into the rhythm of the words and began to listen.
We soon learned that the simple pleasure of listening to a well-written book makes the long miles pas more quickly. Sometimes reading became the most interesting part of the trip. I read Wilson Rawls’s Summer of the Monkeys as we spent two days driving to the beach. We arrived just behind the power crews restoring（恢复）electricity after a tropical storm. The rain continued most of the week, and the beach was covered with oil washed up by the storm. When we returned home, I asked my son what he liked about the trip. He answered without hesitation “The book you read in the car.”
Road trips still offer challenges, even though my children now are teenagers. But we continue to read as we roll across the country. And I’m beginning to see tat reading aloud has done more than help pass the time. For at least a little while, we are not shut in our own electronic worlds. And maybe we've started something that will pass on to the next generation.
8. Why did the author start reading in the car?
A. She wanted to have a better journey.
B. She wanted to keep a family tradition
C. Her children were addicted to reading.
D. Her children were tired of the cassette.
9. How did the children react after the author read a few lines?
A. They kept fighting. B. They hid themselves.
C. They soon settled down. D. They read together aloud.
10. What can we learn about the author and her family’s trip to the beach?
A. They were caught in a storm.
B. They enjoyed reading on the road.
C. They had a good time on the beach.
D. They found reading boring.
11. Which can be the best title for the text?
A. Better Traveling than Reading B. Books that Changed My Children
C. Road Trips Full of Challenges D. Reading Makes Great Road Trips
【答案】8. A 9. C 10. B 11. D
【解析】本文讲述了作者原本开启家庭传统—“在车里阅读 “的动力完全是自私的，没想到它竟然使枯燥的旅程变得有趣享受。
8. 推理判断题。My motivation for starting our family tradition of reading in the car was purely selfish: I could not bear listening to A Sesame Street Christmas for another 10 hours.得知作者忍受不了在旅途10小时中一直听芝麻街圣诞，所以为了使旅途更愉快，他开启了阅读的传统。故选A。
9. 事实细节题。根据But after several lines, they were attracted into the rhythm of the words and began to listen，得知作者在车里给孩子们读书，没读几行孩子们就安静了。故选C。
11. 主旨大意题。根据上下文得知本文讲述了作者原本开启家庭传统—“在车里阅读 “的动力完全是自私的，没想到它竟然使枯燥的旅程变得有趣享受。因此最佳标题是“阅读使旅途变得美好“。故选D。
D
Driverless technology will soon enter another major global industry: shipping. Several companies recently announced plans to start self-sailing ships to improve safety and efficiency（效率）.
One of them is Norwegian chemical company Yara International. Yara has designed to build an autonomous ship expected to start next year. The ship is fully electric to reduce air pollution. It is designed to carry containers normally transported by truck. This means the ship will also improve road safety by replacing about 40,000 truck trips a year.
Yara plans to operate the ships by remote control beginning sometime next year. By 2020, the ships should be loading and sailing themselves. Another company focusing on self-sailing ships is the world's largest mining company, Australia’s BHP Billiton. The company’s Vice President of Freight, Rashpal Bhatti, recently spoke about the technology. He said, “I believe automation（自动化）will be one of the biggest changes for shipping in the future.” Autonomous ships offer important chances to improve safety and provide better efficiency results to the marine supply chain. He added that self-sailing ships could become a reality within the next decade.
Rolls-Royce, the British automobile and engine manufacturer, is also developing unmanned shipping technologies. Oskar Levander is the company’s head of marine operations. He told a conference last year, “This is happening. It’s not if, it’s when.” Several shipping companies have invested hundreds of millions of dollars to develop self-sailing ships expected to be used by 2025. These ships will be equipped with technology to collect weather and sea data. They will then use the data to plan out the safest, shortest and most fuel-efficient route.
12. Which one is the advantage of the driverless ship according to the passage?
A. Environmental friendly. B. Without noise.
C. Low cost. D. Having stronger ship body.
13. What can we learn from paragraph3?
A. Australia’s BHP Billiton is the world’s largest ship company.
B. The ships will work almost automatically by 2020.
C. Bhatti isn’t sure of the future of driverless ship.
D. Self-sailing ships will be used widely in a couple of years.
14. What attitude does Oskar Levander have to the new driverless ship?
A. Unsure. B. Doubtful.
C. Confident. D. Objective.
15. Where is probably the passage taken from?
A. A physics textbook. B. A book review.
C. An advertisement. D. A science report.
【答案】12. A 13. B 14. C 15. D
【解析】本文是一篇说明文，主要运用举例说明的方法，介绍了挪威、澳大利亚以及英国的劳斯莱斯等三家公司的具体实例，具体说明无人驾驶技术在海洋运输方面的使用及其优势所在。
12. 细节理解题。根据第二段第三句The ship is fully electric to reduce air pollution.可知无人驾驶的轮船最大的优势在于减少空气污染，所以环保是其最大的优势。故A项正确。
13. 细节理解题。根据第三段第二句By 2020, the ships should be loading and sailing themselves.可知到2020年，无人驾驶的轮船应该可以投入使用了。故B项正确。
14. 推理判断题。根据文章最后一段第三句He told a conference last year, “This is happening. It’s not if, it’s when.”可知Oskar Levander认为无人驾驶的轮船是一定会出现的，只是时间的问题。说明Oskar Levander对此非常有信心。故C项正确。
15. 推理判断题。本文是一篇说明文，主要运用举例说明的方法，介绍了挪威、澳大利亚以及英国的劳斯莱斯等三家公司的具体实例，具体说明无人驾驶技术在海洋运输方面的使用及其优势所在。与物理教材、书评或者广告内容无关，应该是一篇科技方面的文章。故D项正确。
第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）
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。
China has been the birthplace of many of the world’s greatest inventions. It was, for example, the first country to produce paper money. Before the invention of paper money and coins, people used many different kinds of things for buying and selling. ____16____ This exchange of goods and services for other goods and services is called bartering（物物交换）.
___17___ In 1200 BC, people in China began to use shells as money. Usually the shells used as money were very small. This made it easier for people to carry money over long distances, and allowed for trade to develop between different parts of the country.
In the years which followed this invention, many other countries around the world began to do the same. ___18___
The next development was in 1000 BC, when China started making bronze and copper shells. It wasn’t long before the Chinese made round coins out of metal. ____19____ By 500 BC, metal coins had begun to appear in countries like Persia and Greece, and later in the Roman Empire.
About 1000 years later, leather was used as money in China, and in 806 AD, the first paper banknotes were produced by the Chinese people. ___20___
A. As time went by, trade between countries increased.
B. People also began collecting foreign coins as souvenirs.
C. They also used tiny shells as money for buying and selling.
D. It was still many years before paper money appeared in Europe.
E. However, as economies developed, such exchanges became impractical.
F. During that time, for example, buying a chicken might cost several potatoes.
G. The very first coins often had holes in them so that people could tie them together.
【答案】16. F 17. E
18. C 19. G
20. D
【解析】本文是一篇说明文，告诉我们中国是世界上第一个使用纸币的国家，同时详细说明了货币从物物交换到纸币的发展历程。
16. 根据横线后句This exchange of goods and services for other goods and services is called bartering.可知本段介绍的是货币发展最早期的物物交换。选项中只有F项中有“buying a chicken might cost several potatoes”属于物物交换的例子。故F项符合上下文要求。
17. 根据横线后一句In 1200 BC, people in China began to use shells as money.可知本段介绍了物物交换以后，人们使用贝壳作为媒介进行买卖交易，这主要是因为物物交换太不方便了。故E项符合上下文串联。
18. 根据横线前句“… many other countries around the world began to do the same.”可知很多国家也和古代的中国一样，使用贝壳作为媒介进行交易。故C项正确。
19. 横线前句“It wasn’t long before the Chinese made round coins out of metal.”告诉我们不久以后中国人就使用了金属的圆形硬币。说明本段介绍了使用金属货币作为媒介进行买卖。选项中只有G项内容与金属相关，符合本段的主要内容。
20. 横线前句告诉我们在公元806年，中国出现了纸币，根据文章之前的讲述可知西方国家在货币方面的发展要晚于中国，所以纸币在西方国家的出现时间也要晚于中国。故D项符合上下文串联。

I woke up lately yesterday because my alarm clock didn’t ring. With no time for the breakfast, I rushed out of my house. I had intended to catch the 7:30 subway, and I didn’t make it. Have a little time left, I take a taxi instead. I arrived at the school only find, with great sadness mixed with some relief, that the school where should have been full of students was empty. It was Saturday. However, our ill luck showed no sign of coming at an end. When I returned home, I found myself lock out. I had left my key at home. Just my luck.
【答案】1. lately-late
2. 去掉the
3. and→but
4. Have→Having
5. take→took
6. only后加to
7. where/that/which
8. our→my
9. at→to
10. lock→locked
【解析】小题1 考查副词。lately表示最近，而此处是醒晚了。故lately改为late。
小题2 考查冠词。?一日三餐前面通常不用the。故the去掉??。
小题3考查连词。句意是指我本打算赶7:0地铁，但是没有成功。上下文是转折关系。故and改为but。?
小题4 考查非谓语动词。前后主语一致，省略主语和be动词，表示主动，用现在分词。故Have改为Having.
小题5???本文是以一般过去时为主的，故使用一般过去时。故take改为took。???
小题6 考查非谓语动词。表示出乎意料的结果用only to do形式，故find前面加to。
小题7 考查关系代词。school是先行词，在定语从句中做主语。故where改为which或that。
小题8 考查代词。 通篇讲述我的经历，故our改为my。
小题9 考查介词。come to an end是固定结构，表示结束。故at改为to。
小题10 考查非谓语动词。find+宾语+宾补，我和锁住是被动关系，用过去分词。故lock改为locked。
【名师点睛】
答题中注意句子中人称和数是否一致，如小题8 通篇讲述我的经历，故our改为my。
时态是否一致。如小题5???本文是以一般过去时为主的，故使用一般过去时。各种词性之间的区别以及一些常用句型，固定短语的应用。一般的这类题型不会出现太复杂的单词和句子，这类题型考察的就是我们的基础知识。平时应注重积累，熟记一些句型及惯用结构。如小题9 come to an end是固定结构，表示结束。修改前先细读短文，标出出错的位置，改完以后还得细读短文，看看改过后的短文是否语意通顺，符合逻辑。

【答案】It is a common phenomenon that people, including the elderly people as well as some young people, will gather in the dancing square late in the evening due to the fact that people’s living standard and the awareness of doing physical exercise have improved.
When it comes to square dance, it is universally acknowledged that it makes a tremendous difference to people’s life. For instance, not only .n dancing women promote the relationship with people but also it makes contribution to people’s health. However, dancing has some disadvantages despite its advantages. When dancing, the dancing women play loud music unconsciously, which gives to dissatisfaction.
Personally speaking, I am definitely in favor of square dance. Meanwhile, I do hope the dancing women can try their best to regulate the volume of music. Only in this case can we create a harmonious community together.
【解析】本文属于开放性作文，要求考生描述广场舞的现状，分析广场舞变流行的原因并发表个人观点。广场舞的出现主要是因为人们生活水平变高以后健康意识有了很大的提高，而且广场舞不仅可以改善人们的健康水平，还可以改善人际关系；但同时广场舞也会带来噪音污染，给广场周围的人带来干扰。考生可以从利弊两方面着手分析，一分为二地看待问题，体现出思维的辩证性。
【点睛】开放性作文只给出了一个话题，对于考生的综合能力要求较高，要求考生有很强的谋篇布局的能力和组织要点的能力。本文最大的亮点在于结构非常完整，很好地完成了题干要求的所有任务，既分析了广场舞现状，分析了原因也说明了利弊。也使用了高级句式，如最后一句“Only in this case can we create a harmonious community together.”使用了部分倒装句；第二段最后一句“When dancing, the dancing women play loud music unconsciously, which gives to dissatisfaction.”使用了分词做状语以及定语从句，这些句式的运用大大提高了本文的层次。

第二部分：阅读理解（百强校英语解析团队专供）（共两节，满分40分）
第一节（共15小题；每小题2分，满分30分）
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，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。
A
The Oklalhoma teen’s eyes were covered by two blindfolds（眼罩）. She didn’t know she would meet her father, James, after 12-year separation.
“I had actually discussed with her the night before at a restaurant and talked over the details of where we would go and how we would pull them of,” said Amanda, Rory Beth’s mother.
A video shows Amanda led her blindfolded daughter out of their car and guided her across the parking lot of Broken Arrow Lanes in Broken Arrow.
Little did she know, her father was on the sidewalk holding a birthday cake that read, “Happy Birthday Rory Beth, Love Dad.” When the teen slowly pulled down her blindfolds, she was extremely surprised. Both the father and daughter stood silently looking at each other until James finally walked over and hugged her. James only broke their embrace to look at his daughter and hold her face. “There were definitely lots of tears from James, myself, and boys,
and even a few bystanders,” said Amanda.
James was a truck driver who spent a lot of time on the road, so Amanda ended the marriage with him when Rory Beth was a baby. “It was hard to figure out how to make it work,” Amanda said. Amanda felt Rory Beth was now old enough to understand and to ask any questions she may have, so the reunion happened.
The birthday surprise was on June 4, and the father and daughter had seen each other again since, even celebrating Father’s Day together. Amanda said her daughter and James were both delighted to be together.
“She’s already calling him ‘daddy’ and tells him that she loves him.” Amanda said.
1. Why were Rory Beth’s eyes covered?
A. Her eyes are sensitive to light. B. She was ready to receive a surprise.
C. She was playing hide-and-seek. D. She just received an eye operation.
2. What does the underlined word “them” in paragraph 2 refer to?
A. The blindfolds. B. The teen’s eyes.
C. Her birthday presents. D. The details of the party.
3. How did James react when he saw Beth?
A. He laughed happily. B. He couldn’t believe his eye.
C. He shouted and hugged his daughter. D. He couldn’t hold back his tears.
4. How was Rory Beth getting on with her father?
A. She kept him at a distance. B. She couldn’t forgive him.
C. She was happy to be with him. D. She felt it hard to accept him.
【答案】1. B 2. A 3. D 4. C
【解析】这是一篇记叙文。文章记叙了12岁的Rory Beth在父母离婚12年后与父亲再次重聚的情景。
1. 推理判断题。由第一段“The Oklahoma teen’s eyes were covered by two blindfolds (眼罩) . She didn’t know she would meet her father, James, after 12-year separation.”可知，Rory Beth的眼睛被眼罩蒙上，她不知道自己将会见到分离12年的父亲。由此可以推知，她的眼睛被蒙上就是为了给她一个惊喜。故B选项正确。
2. 词义猜测题。由第一段第一句可知，Rory Beth被眼罩遮住眼睛。第二段中的“I had actually discussed with her the night before at a restaurant and talked over the details of where we would go and how we would pull them off”提到，她的母亲前一天晚上和她讨论了如何将“它们”取下来。第四段中的“When the teen slowly pulled down her blindfolds”提到，Rory Beth慢慢地将眼罩摘了下来。很明显，them应该指的是眼罩，故A选项正确。
3. 考查细节理解题。由第四段中的“There were definitely lots of tears from James, myself, and boys, and even a few bystanders”可知，James见到女儿时，哭了。故D选项正确。
4. 推理判断题。由最后一段中的“＂She’s already calling him ‘daddy’ and tells him that she loves him,＂ Amanda said. ＂They’re both very committed.＂”可知，Rory Beth和父亲在一起很开心。C选项正确。
B

My reason for starting our family tradition of reading in the car was purely selfish: I could not bear listening to A Sesame Street Christmas for another 10 hours. My three children had been addicted to this cassette（磁带）on our previous summer road trips.
As I began to prepare for our next 500-mile car trip, I came across a book—Jim Trelease’s—The Read Aloud Handbook. This could be the answer to my problem. I thought. So I put Roald Dahl’s James and the Giant Peach into my bag. When I began to read aloud the tale of the boy who escapes the bad guys by hiding inside a giant peach, my three kids argued and fought with each other in their seats. But after several lines, they were attracted into the rhythm of the words and began to listen.
We soon learned that the simple pleasure of listening to a well-written book makes the long miles pas more quickly. Sometimes reading became the most interesting part of the trip. I read Wilson Rawls’s Summer of the Monkeys as we spent two days driving to the beach. We arrived just behind the power crews restoring（恢复）electricity after a tropical storm. The rain continued most of the week, and the beach was covered with oil washed up by the storm. When we returned home, I asked my son what he liked about the trip. He answered without hesitation “The book you read in the car.”
Road trips still offer challenges, even though my children now are teenagers. But we continue to read as we roll across the country. And I’m beginning to see tat reading aloud has done more than help pass the time. For at least a little while, we are not shut in our own electronic worlds. And maybe we've started something that will pass on to the next generation.
8. Why did the author start reading in the car?
A. She wanted to have a better journey.
B. She wanted to keep a family tradition
C. Her children were addicted to reading.
D. Her children were tired of the cassette.
9. How did the children react after the author read a few lines?

A. They were caught in a storm.
B. They enjoyed reading on the road.
C. They had a good time on the beach.
D. They found reading boring.
11. Which can be the best title for the text?
A. Better Traveling than Reading B. Books that Changed My Children
C. Road Trips Full of Challenges D. Reading Makes Great Road Trips
【答案】8. A 9. C 10. B 11. D
【解析】本文讲述了作者原本开启家庭传统—“在车里阅读 “的动力完全是自私的，没想到它竟然使枯燥的旅程变得有趣享受。
8. 推理判断题。My motivation for starting our family tradition of reading in the car was purely selfish: I could not bear listening to A Sesame Street Christmas for another 10 hours.得知作者忍受不了在旅途10小时中一直听芝麻街圣诞，所以为了使旅途更愉快，他开启了阅读的传统。故选A。
9. 事实细节题。根据But after several lines, they were attracted into the rhythm of the words and began to listen，得知作者在车里给孩子们读书，没读几行孩子们就安静了。故选C。
11. 主旨大意题。根据上下文得知本文讲述了作者原本开启家庭传统—“在车里阅读 “的动力完全是自私的，没想到它竟然使枯燥的旅程变得有趣享受。因此最佳标题是“阅读使旅途变得美好“。故选D。
D
Driverless technology will soon enter another major global industry: shipping. Several companies recently announced plans to start self-sailing ships to improve safety and efficiency（效率）.
One of them is Norwegian chemical company Yara International. Yara has designed to build an autonomous ship expected to start next year. The ship is fully electric to reduce air pollution. It is designed to carry containers normally transported by truck. This means the ship will also improve road safety by replacing about 40,000 truck trips a year.
Yara plans to operate the ships by remote control beginning sometime next year. By 2020, the ships should be loading and sailing themselves. Another company focusing on self-sailing ships is the world's largest mining company, Australia’s BHP Billiton. The company’s Vice President of Freight, Rashpal Bhatti, recently spoke about the technology. He said, “I believe automation（自动化）will be one of the biggest changes for shipping in the future.” Autonomous ships offer important chances to improve safety and provide better efficiency results to the marine supply chain. He added that self-sailing ships could become a reality within the next decade.
Rolls-Royce, the British automobile and engine manufacturer, is also developing unmanned shipping technologies. Oskar Levander is the company’s head of marine operations. He told a conference last year, “This is happening. It’s not if, it’s when.” Several shipping companies have invested hundreds of millions of dollars to develop self-sailing ships expected to be used by 2025. These ships will be equipped with technology to collect weather and sea data. They will then use the data to plan out the safest, shortest and most fuel-efficient route.
12. Which one is the advantage of the driverless ship according to the passage?
A. Environmental friendly. B. Without noise.
C. Low cost. D. Having stronger ship body.
13. What can we learn from paragraph3?
A. Australia’s BHP Billiton is the world’s largest ship company.
B. The ships will work almost automatically by 2020.
C. Bhatti isn’t sure of the future of driverless ship.
D. Self-sailing ships will be used widely in a couple of years.
14. What attitude does Oskar Levander have to the new driverless ship?
A. Unsure. B. Doubtful.
C. Confident. D. Objective.
15. Where is probably the passage taken from?
A. A physics textbook. B. A book review.
C. An advertisement. D. A science report.
【答案】12. A 13. B 14. C 15. D
【解析】本文是一篇说明文，主要运用举例说明的方法，介绍了挪威、澳大利亚以及英国的劳斯莱斯等三家公司的具体实例，具体说明无人驾驶技术在海洋运输方面的使用及其优势所在。
12. 细节理解题。根据第二段第三句The ship is fully electric to reduce air pollution.可知无人驾驶的轮船最大的优势在于减少空气污染，所以环保是其最大的优势。故A项正确。
13. 细节理解题。根据第三段第二句By 2020, the ships should be loading and sailing themselves.可知到2020年，无人驾驶的轮船应该可以投入使用了。故B项正确。
14. 推理判断题。根据文章最后一段第三句He told a conference last year, “This is happening. It’s not if, it’s when.”可知Oskar Levander认为无人驾驶的轮船是一定会出现的，只是时间的问题。说明Oskar Levander对此非常有信心。故C项正确。
15. 推理判断题。本文是一篇说明文，主要运用举例说明的方法，介绍了挪威、澳大利亚以及英国的劳斯莱斯等三家公司的具体实例，具体说明无人驾驶技术在海洋运输方面的使用及其优势所在。与物理教材、书评或者广告内容无关，应该是一篇科技方面的文章。故D项正确。
第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）
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。
China has been the birthplace of many of the world’s greatest inventions. It was, for example, the first country to produce paper money. Before the invention of paper money and coins, people used many different kinds of things for buying and selling. ____16____ This exchange of goods and services for other goods and services is called bartering（物物交换）.
___17___ In 1200 BC, people in China began to use shells as money. Usually the shells used as money were very small. This made it easier for people to carry money over long distances, and allowed for trade to develop between different parts of the country.
In the years which followed this invention, many other countries around the world began to do the same. ___18___
The next development was in 1000 BC, when China started making bronze and copper shells. It wasn’t long before the Chinese made round coins out of metal. ____19____ By 500 BC, metal coins had begun to appear in countries like Persia and Greece, and later in the Roman Empire.
About 1000 years later, leather was used as money in China, and in 806 AD, the first paper banknotes were produced by the Chinese people. ___20___
A. As time went by, trade between countries increased.
B. People also began collecting foreign coins as souvenirs.
C. They also used tiny shells as money for buying and selling.
D. It was still many years before paper money appeared in Europe.
E. However, as economies developed, such exchanges became impractical.
F. During that time, for example, buying a chicken might cost several potatoes.
G. The very first coins often had holes in them so that people could tie them together.
【答案】16. F 17. E
18. C 19. G
20. D
【解析】本文是一篇说明文，告诉我们中国是世界上第一个使用纸币的国家，同时详细说明了货币从物物交换到纸币的发展历程。
16. 根据横线后句This exchange of goods and services for other goods and services is called bartering.可知本段介绍的是货币发展最早期的物物交换。选项中只有F项中有“buying a chicken might cost several potatoes”属于物物交换的例子。故F项符合上下文要求。
17. 根据横线后一句In 1200 BC, people in China began to use shells as money.可知本段介绍了物物交换以后，人们使用贝壳作为媒介进行买卖交易，这主要是因为物物交换太不方便了。故E项符合上下文串联。
18. 根据横线前句“… many other countries around the world began to do the same.”可知很多国家也和古代的中国一样，使用贝壳作为媒介进行交易。故C项正确。
19. 横线前句“It wasn’t long before the Chinese made round coins out of metal.”告诉我们不久以后中国人就使用了金属的圆形硬币。说明本段介绍了使用金属货币作为媒介进行买卖。选项中只有G项内容与金属相关，符合本段的主要内容。
20. 横线前句告诉我们在公元806年，中国出现了纸币，根据文章之前的讲述可知西方国家在货币方面的发展要晚于中国，所以纸币在西方国家的出现时间也要晚于中国。故D项符合上下文串联。

I woke up lately yesterday because my alarm clock didn’t ring. With no time for the breakfast, I rushed out of my house. I had intended to catch the 7:30 subway, and I didn’t make it. Have a little time left, I take a taxi instead. I arrived at the school only find, with great sadness mixed with some relief, that the school where should have been full of students was empty. It was Saturday. However, our ill luck showed no sign of coming at an end. When I returned home, I found myself lock out. I had left my key at home. Just my luck.
【答案】1. lately-late
2. 去掉the
3. and→but
4. Have→Having
5. take→took
6. only后加to
7. where/that/which
8. our→my
9. at→to
10. lock→locked
【解析】小题1 考查副词。lately表示最近，而此处是醒晚了。故lately改为late。
小题2 考查冠词。?一日三餐前面通常不用the。故the去掉??。
小题3考查连词。句意是指我本打算赶7:0地铁，但是没有成功。上下文是转折关系。故and改为but。?
小题4 考查非谓语动词。前后主语一致，省略主语和be动词，表示主动，用现在分词。故Have改为Having.
小题5???本文是以一般过去时为主的，故使用一般过去时。故take改为took。???
小题6 考查非谓语动词。表示出乎意料的结果用only to do形式，故find前面加to。
小题7 考查关系代词。school是先行词，在定语从句中做主语。故where改为which或that。
小题8 考查代词。 通篇讲述我的经历，故our改为my。
小题9 考查介词。come to an end是固定结构，表示结束。故at改为to。
小题10 考查非谓语动词。find+宾语+宾补，我和锁住是被动关系，用过去分词。故lock改为locked。
【名师点睛】
答题中注意句子中人称和数是否一致，如小题8 通篇讲述我的经历，故our改为my。
时态是否一致。如小题5???本文是以一般过去时为主的，故使用一般过去时。各种词性之间的区别以及一些常用句型，固定短语的应用。一般的这类题型不会出现太复杂的单词和句子，这类题型考察的就是我们的基础知识。平时应注重积累，熟记一些句型及惯用结构。如小题9 come to an end是固定结构，表示结束。修改前先细读短文，标出出错的位置，改完以后还得细读短文，看看改过后的短文是否语意通顺，符合逻辑。

【答案】It is a common phenomenon that people, including the elderly people as well as some young people, will gather in the dancing square late in the evening due to the fact that people’s living standard and the awareness of doing physical exercise have improved.
When it comes to square dance, it is universally acknowledged that it makes a tremendous difference to people’s life. For instance, not only .n dancing women promote the relationship with people but also it makes contribution to people’s health. However, dancing has some disadvantages despite its advantages. When dancing, the dancing women play loud music unconsciously, which gives to dissatisfaction.
Personally speaking, I am definitely in favor of square dance. Meanwhile, I do hope the dancing women can try their best to regulate the volume of music. Only in this case can we create a harmonious community together.
【解析】本文属于开放性作文，要求考生描述广场舞的现状，分析广场舞变流行的原因并发表个人观点。广场舞的出现主要是因为人们生活水平变高以后健康意识有了很大的提高，而且广场舞不仅可以改善人们的健康水平，还可以改善人际关系；但同时广场舞也会带来噪音污染，给广场周围的人带来干扰。考生可以从利弊两方面着手分析，一分为二地看待问题，体现出思维的辩证性。
【点睛】开放性作文只给出了一个话题，对于考生的综合能力要求较高，要求考生有很强的谋篇布局的能力和组织要点的能力。本文最大的亮点在于结构非常完整，很好地完成了题干要求的所有任务，既分析了广场舞现状，分析了原因也说明了利弊。也使用了高级句式，如最后一句“Only in this case can we create a harmonious community together.”使用了部分倒装句；第二段最后一句“When dancing, the dancing women play loud music unconsciously, which gives to dissatisfaction.”使用了分词做状语以及定语从句，这些句式的运用大大提高了本文的层次。
