(2019·昆明摸底测试)When she was found off the coast of California four years ago, the fur seal, known as Ziggy Star, was skinny and fragile. She was unfit to return to the wild. And though a professional rescue team took her in to care for her, Ziggy continued to decline.“I wouldn’t have given her next week,” says Uriarte, a surgeon who led a recent first?of?its?kind brain operation on the seal.
The operation was the first of its kind to treat hydrocephalus in fur seals. The surgical team at Tufts was unable to find any documented evidence of a similar procedure, so they needed a lot of preparation to operate on Ziggy’s brain. The biggest concern in operating on Ziggy was how to control the animal’s anesthesia(麻醉).“When they’re under anesthesia, their body’s reaction includes decreasing their heart rate, blood pressure, and breathing,”says Flower, who observes Ziggy and the other animals’ care, describing the special challenges of operating on seals. On the day of the surgery, Flower says that she and her team “were all quite anxious not knowing what would happen”. Moving quickly was extremely important; the longer she was under anesthesia, the more likely that she could lose her breathing, says the surgeon. The seal has been kept on land to prevent water from entering the cut on her head.
Now, Ziggy is eating a full diet and is beginning to gain weight again.“Recently I’ve allowed her to go swimming,” says Flower. However, the source of Ziggy’s neurological disorder(神经紊乱) is still a mystery.“My theory is that when she was found, she had a head injury,”Uriarte says.“Hit by a boat maybe...That happens a lot with seals.” Flower is less willing to guess.“I don’t think there’s enough information to make that assumption. We just don’t know what happened to her.”
【解题导语】 本文是一篇记叙文。Ziggy Star是一只在加利福尼亚海岸被发现的非常瘦弱的海豹,因为Ziggy有脑积水,医生为她进行了手术,她现在已经能够正常进食,体重也在逐步恢复,但究竟是什么导致了她的神经紊乱,这依旧是一个谜。
4.When first found, Ziggy Star looked ________.
A.thin and weak
B.active and excited
C.bloody and fierce
D.strong and energetic
A 解析:细节理解题。根据第一段第一句“When she was found off the coast of California four years ago, the fur seal, known as Ziggy Star, was skinny and fragile.”中的skinny(极瘦的)和fragile(虚弱的)可知A项正确。
5.What was the most challenging task on the day of the operation?
A.Helping the seal regain her breathing.
B.Using anesthesia properly on the seal.
C.Making full preparations for the operation.
D.Balancing the functions of the seal’s organs.
B 解析:细节理解题。题干中的关键词是the most challenging task(最有挑战性的任务),据此定位到第二段中的“The biggest concern in operating on Ziggy was how to control the animal’s anesthesia(麻醉).”,由此可知,手术最大的挑战是如何控制麻醉,所以选B。
6.What can we learn about Ziggy after the operation?
A.She is strong enough to live in the wild.
B.She is suffering from a heart rate disorder.
C.She has already become as heavy as before.
D.She is recovering from the brain operation.
D 解析:推理判断题。题干的关键词是after the operation,据此定位到文章最后一段第一句“Now, Ziggy is eating a full diet and is beginning to gain weight again.”,由此可知,手术后,海豹已经能够正常进食,体重也在恢复,所以选D。
7.What is probably the author’s purpose in writing the text?
A.To show humans’ love for a creature.
B.To find out a way to operate on a seal.
C.To remember an injured seal in danger.
D.To explore the reasons for a seal’s injury.
A 解析:写作意图题。作者在文章中介绍了拯救受伤海豹的过程,旨在说明人们对于动物的爱护,所以选A。
C
(2019·河北五个一名校联考)Two of the saddest words in the English language are “if only”. I live my life with the goal of never having to say those words, because they convey regrets, lost opportunities, mistakes, and disappointment.
My father is famous in our family for saying, “Take the extra minute to do it right.” I always try to live by the “extra minute” rule. When my children were young and likely to cause accidents, I always thought about what I could do to avoid an “if only” moment, whether it was something minor like moving a cup full of hot coffee away from the edge of a counter, or something that required a little more work such as taping padding(衬垫) on to the sharp corners of a glass coffee table.
I don’t only avoid those “if only” moments when it comes to safety. It’s equally important to avoid “if only” in our personal relationships. We all know people who lost a loved one and regretted that they had forgone an opportunity to say “I love you” or “I forgive you”. When my father announced he was going to the eye doctor across from my office on Good Friday, I told him that it was a holiday for my company and I wouldn’t be here. But then I thought about the fact that he was 84 years old and I realized that I shouldn’t miss an opportunity to see him. I called him and told him I had decided to go to work on my day off after all.
I know there will still be occasions when I have to say “if only” about something, but my life is definitely better because of my policy of doing everything possible to avoid that eventuality. And even though it takes an extra minute to do something right, or it occasionally takes an hour or two in my busy schedule to make a personal connection, I know that I’m doing the right thing. I’m buying myself peace of mind and that’s the best kind of insurance for my emotional well?being.
【解题导语】 “我” 认为英语中最悲伤的两个词是 “if only”,因为它们表达了遗憾。父亲在 “我” 小时候经常告诉我们花费额外的时间也要把事情做好来避免遗憾, “我” 听从父亲的建议并认为这样做是对的。
8.Why does the writer regard “if only” as two of the saddest words in the English language?
A.Because people use them when they feel sad.
B.Because they express regrets and disappointment in life.
C.Because they remind the writer of some sad experiences.
D.Because they mean sadness in the English language.
B 解析:细节理解题。由第一段中的“Two of the saddest words in the English language are ‘if only’... because they convey regrets, lost opportunities, mistakes, and disappointment.”可知, “我” 认为英语中最令人伤心的两个词是 “if only”,因为这两个词表达了后悔、错失的机会、错误和失望。故选B项。
9.What’s the meaning of the underlined word “forgone” in Paragraph 3?
A.Given up. B.Come across.
C.Got through. D.Held back.
A 解析:词义猜测题。该词所在的句子表达的意思是:我们都认识这样的人,他们在失去所爱之人后会后悔错失了说 “我爱你” 或 “我原谅你” 的机会。所以画线词表示 “失去了”,和短语give up意思接近。故选A项。
10.The author decided to go to her office on Good Friday to ________.
A.see a doctor B.finish her work
C.join a celebration D.accompany her father
D 解析:细节理解题。题干中的关键信息 “decided to go to her office” 对应原文中的“I had decided to go to work”,由此定位到倒数第二段。从倒数第二段可以看出, “我” 知道父亲要去自己办公室对面看眼科医生时,本来打算按原计划休假,但突然意识到父亲已经84岁了,所以 “我” 决定即便是自己的休息日,为了陪父亲,也会去上班。故选D项。
11.What is the best title for the passage?
A.Advice from My Father
B.Avoidance of Saying “If Only”
C.The “Extra Minute” Rule
D.The Importance of Emotional Well?being
B 解析:标题归纳题。根据首尾段的第一句话及文章大意可知,本文主要是针对避免说英语中最悲伤的两个词 “if only” 进行阐述的,所以B项 “避免说‘if only’” 符合全文内容。故选B项。

(2019·惠州调研)Following the crowd may not always be in a person’s best interest.But new research suggests that teens who get along with their friends may end up healthier as adults.
Scientists have known that close friendships help boost health.That’s true for both teens and adults. The finding inspired Joseph Allen, a psychologist at the University of Virginia, and his team to study whether experiences during teen years would influence adult health.
So they followed 171 teens, starting when the kids were just 13. They interviewed each one every year for five years, and also spoke to these teens’ closest friends,who provided additional information about the quality of their friendships.The same 171 people were interviewed again at ages 25, 26 and 27. This time, the questions surveyed each person’s overall health. When the researchers analyzed the data, they found a strong connection between a teen’s behavior and adult health. Teens who had close friends grew up to be the healthier adults. Whether teens held back their feelings or expressed them to close friends also influenced later health. Those who held back their feelings were more likely to be sick as adults. The connection held up even after the scientists accounted for other possible influences on health.Weight, family income and drug use were all examined. So were mental health issues,such as anxiety and depression. And in these people, such other factors did not explain adult health as well as teen friendships did.
“Getting along with the crowd may have benefits,” says Allen, “but there are also drawbacks. Teens who are more independent tend to do better at school and work. And peer pressure may lead some kids to engage in risky behavior, such as smoking, drinking or using drugs. Dealing with it is an ongoing challenge,” Allen acknowledges. “Finding the right balance is the key. Teens shouldn’t lose heart for not finding this easy.” And, he adds, “Parents need to be understanding about the pressures teens face.”
【解题导语】 研究表明,与朋友较少或者没有朋友的青少年相比,有朋友的青少年在长大后更健康。当然,与朋友相处有时也有坏处。
12.Where can you probably read this passage?
A.Science fiction.
B.Health column.
C.Fashion magazine.
D.Entertainment newspaper.
B 解析:文章出处题。通读全文可知,本文主要介绍青少年时的友谊对青少年成年后健康的影响。据此可知,本文属于健康知识类文章,故可判断,本文可能选自 “健康专栏”。故B项正确。
13.We can learn from Allen’s study that________.
A.many other factors have a greater influence on adult health than teen friendships
B.mental health issues have nothing to do with adult health
C.the same 171 teens were interviewed each year from 13 to 27
D.the teens who couldn’t express themselves grew up to be unhealthier
D 解析:细节理解题。根据第三段中的“Whether teens held back...sick as adults.”可知,青少年是否向他们的好朋友表达情感也会影响到其成年后的健康,那些压抑情感的青少年成年后很可能不健康。故D项正确。
14.According to what Allen said, we can know that________.
A.in order to do better at school, teens should not follow the crowd
B.though it’s challenging for teens to deal with peer pressure, they should not give up
C.teens will engage in smoking, drinking or using drugs when facing peer pressure
D.parents should understand their teens and stop them going with friends
B 解析:细节理解题。根据最后一段内容可知,与朋友相处使得青少年在成年后更加健康的同时也会带来不利影响,即周围同龄人带来的压力,这些压力会导致许多问题。分析Allen的话“Finding the right balance is the key.Teens shouldn’t lose heart for not finding this easy.”可以判断,青少年要应对这些压力,找到正确的平衡点是关键,不能因为很难找到平衡点就灰心丧气。故B项正确。
15.What can be inferred from the passage?
A.There is nothing bad for teens to follow the crowd.
B.Close friendships are the most important for people’s health.
C.Teen friendships may help teens become healthier adults.
D.Adult health is only influenced by teen friendships.
C 解析:推理判断题。根据文章第一段第二句“But new research suggests that teens who get along with their friends may end up healthier as adults.”可知,与朋友相处的青少年在成年后会更加健康。C项意为“青少年时期的友谊会帮助青少年成为更加健康的成年人”,符合文章意思。故C项正确。

One possible version:
Dear Peter,
I think I need your help. Last Friday I placed an order for a laptop online, and it is estimated to arrive to your address this Sunday. But you know I’m out with my parents, and we are going for a trip to London this weekend. So I’m writing to let you know that it’s not convenient for me to go back to receive the laptop at home. Can you do me the favor, please?
It’s a Lenovo laptop made in China. Please give it a careful checkup and make sure the package is well preserved and the machine operates well. Don’t hesitate to contact me if you find any damage. Thank you very much.
Yours,
Li Hua
