“No,
I
___43___.”
“You

me.

B
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
great
effort,
a
plate
that
also
provides
food
for
a
neighbor
to
the
next
cage,
he
will
pull
at
random—he
just
doesn’t
care
whether
his
neighbor
gets
fed
or
not.
Chimps
are
truly
selfish.
Human
children,
on
the
other
hand
are
extremely
corporative.
From
the
earliest
ages,
they
decide
to
help
others,
to
share
information
and
to
participate
a
achieving
common
goals.
The
psychologist
Michael
Tomasello
has
studied
this
cooperativeness
in
a
series
of
expensive
with
very
young
children.
He
finds
that
if
babies
aged
18
months
see
a
worried
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
rewarded.
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?Tomtasello,?the?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
in
what
Tomasello
calls
what.
Part
of
this
ability
is
that
they
can
infer
what
others
know
or
are
thinking.
But
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.
58.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.
59.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
60.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

D.

C
El
Nifio,
a
Spanish
term
for
“the
Christ
child”,
was
named
by
South
American
fishermen
who
noticed
that
the
global
weather
pattern,
which
happens
every
two
to
seven
years,
reduced
the
amount
of
fishes
caught
around
Christmas.
El
Nifio
sees
warm
water,
collected
over
several
years
in
the
western
Pacific,
flow
back
eastwards
when
winds
that
normally
blow
westwards
weaken,
or
sometimes
the
other
way
round.
The
weather
effects
both
good
and
bad,
are
felt
in
many
places.
Rich
countries
gain
more
from
powerful
Nifio,
on
balance,
than
they
lose.
A
study
found
that
a
strong
Nifio
in
1997
helped
American’s
economy
grow
by
15
billion,
partly
because
of
better
agricultural
harvest,
farmers
in
the
Midwest
gained
from
extra
rain.
The
total
rise
in
agricultural
in
rich
countries
in
growth
than
the
fall
in
poor
ones.
But
in
Indonesia
extremely
dry
forests
are
in
flames.
A
multi-year
drought(干旱)in
south-east
Brazil
is
becoming
worse.
Though
heavy
rains
brought
about
by
El
Nino
may
relieve
the
drought
in
California,
they
are
likely
to
cause
surface
flooding
and
other
disasters.
The
most
recent
powerful
Nino,
in
1997-98,
killed
around
21,000
people
and
caused
damage
worth
$36
billion
around
the
globe.
But
such
Ninos
come
with
months
of
warning,
and
so
much
is
known
about
how
they
happen
that
governments
can
prepare.
According
to
the
Overseas
Development
Institute(ODI),
however,
just
12%
of
disaster-relief
funding
in
the
past
two
decades
has
gone
on
reducing
risks
in
advance,
rather
than
recovery
and
rebuilding
afterwards.
This
is
despite
evidence
that
a
dollar
spent
on
risk-reduction
saves
at
least
two
on
reconstruction.
Simple
improvements
to
infrastructure(基础设施)can
reduce
the
spread
of
disease.
Better
sewers(下水道)
make
it
less
likely
that
heavy
rain
is
followed
by
an
outbreak
of
the
disease
of
bad
stomach.
Stronger
bridges
mean
villages
are
less
likely
to
be
left
without
food
and
medicine
after
floods.
According
to
a
paper
in
2011
by
Mr.
Hsiang
and
co-authors,
civil
conflict
is
related
to
El
Nino’s
harmful
effects—and
the
poorer
the
country,
the
stronger
the
link.
Though
the
relationship
may
not
be
causal,
helping
divided
communities
to
prepare
for
disasters
would
at
least
reduce
the
risk
that
those
disasters
are
followed
by
killing
and
wounding
people.
Since
the
poorest
are
least
likely
to
make
up
for
their
losses
from
disasters
linked
to
El
Nino,
reducing
their
losses
needs
to
be
the
priority.
61.What
can
we
learn
about
El
Nino
in
Paragraph
1?
A.
It
is
named
after
a
South
American
fisherman.
B.
It
takes
place
almost
every
year
all
over
the
world.
C.
It
forces
fishermen
to
stop
catching
fish
around
Christmas.
D.
It
sees
the
changes
of
water
flow
direction
in
the
ocean.
62.What
may
El
Ninos
bring
about
to
the
countries
affected?
A.
Agricultural
harvests
in
rich
countries
fall.
B.
Droughts
become
more
harmful
than
floods.
C.
Rich
countries’
gains
are
greater
than
their
losses.
D.
Poor
countries
suffer
less
from
droughts
economically.
63.The
data
provided
by
ODI
in
Paragraph
4
suggest
that
_______.
A.
more
investment
should
go
to
risk
reduction
B.
governments
of
poor
countries
need
more
aid
C.
victims
of
El
Nino
deserve
more
compensation
D.
recovery
and
reconstruction
should
come
first
64.What
is
the
author’s
purpose
in
writing
the
passage?
A.
To
introduce
El
Nino
and
its
origin.
B.
To
explain
the
consequences
of
El
Nino.
C.
To
show
ways
of
fighting
against
El
Nino.
D.
To
urge
people
to
prepare
for
El
Nino.
D
Not
so
long
ago,
most
people
didn’t
know
who
Shelly
Ann
Francis
Pryce
was
going
to
become.
She
was
just
an
average
high
school
athlete.
There
was
every
indication
that
she
was
just
another
American
teenager
without
much
of
a
future.
However,
one
person
wants
to
change
this.
Stephen
Francis
observed
then
eighteen-year-old
Shelly
Ann
as
a
track
meet
and
was
convinced
that
he
had
seen
the
beginning
of
true
greatness.
Her
time
were
not
exactly
impressive,
but
even
so,
he
seemed
there
was
something
trying
to
get
out,
something
the
other
coaches
had
overlooked
when
they
had
assessed
her
and
found
her
lacking.
He
decided
to
offer
Shelly
Ann
a
place
in
his
very
strict
training
seasons.
Their
cooperation
quickly
produced
results,
and
a
few
year
later
at
Jamaica’s
Olympic
games
in
early
2008,
Shelly
Ann,
who
at
that
time
only
ranked
number
70
in
the
world,
beat
Jamaica’s
unchallenged
queen
of
the
sprint(短跑).
“Where
did
she
come
from?”
asked
an
astonished
sprinting
world,
before
concluding
that
she
must
be
one
of
those
one-hit
wonders
that
spring
up
from
time
to
time,
only
to
disappear
again
without
signs.
But
Shelly
Ann
was
to
prove
that
she
was
anything
but
a
one-hit
wonder.
At
the
Beijing
Olympic
she
swept
away
any
doubts
about
her
ability
to
perform
consistently
by
becoming
the
first
Jamaican
woman
ever
to
win
the
100
meters
Olympic
gold.
She
did
it
again
one
year
on
at
the
World
Championship
in
Briton,
becoming
world
champion
with
a
time
of
10.73—the
fourth
record
ever.
Shelly-Ann
is
a
little
woman
with
a
big
smile.
She
has
a
mental
toughness
that
did
not
come
about
by
chance.
Her
journey
to
becoming
the
fastest
woman
on
earth
has
been
anything
but
smooth
and
effortless.
She
grew
up
in
one
of
Jamaica’s
toughest
inner-city
communities
known
as
Waterhouse,
where
she
lived
in
a
one-room
apartment,
sleeping
four
in
a
bed
with
her
mother
and
two
brothers.
Waterhouse,
one
of
the
poorest
communities
in
Jamaica,
is
a
really
violent
and
overpopulated
place.
Several
of
Shelly-Ann’s
friends
and
family
were
caught
up
in
the
killings;
one
of
her
cousins
was
shot
dead
only
a
few
streets
away
from
where
she
lived.
Sometimes
her
family
didn’t
have
enough
to
eat.
She
ran
at
the
school
championships
barefooted
because
she
couldn’t
afford
shoes.
Her
mother
Maxime,
one
of
a
family
of
fourteen,
had
been
an
athlete
herself
as
a
young
girl
but,
like
so
many
other
girls
in
Waterhouse,
had
to
stop
after
she
had
her
first
baby.
Maxime’s
early
entry
into
the
adult
world
with
its
responsibilities
gave
her
the
determination
to
ensure
that
her
kids
would
not
end
up
in
Waterhouse’s
roundabout
of
poverty.
One
of
the
first
things
Maxime
used
to
do
with
Shelly-Ann
was
taking
her
to
the
track,
and
she
was
ready
to
sacrifice
everything.
It
didn’t
take
long
for
Shelly-Ann
to
realize
that
sports
could
be
her
way
out
of
Waterhouse.
On
a
summer
evening
in
Beijing
in
2008,
all
those
long,
hard
hours
of
work
and
commitment
finally
bore
fruit.
The
barefoot
kid
who
just
a
few
years
previously
had
been
living
in
poverty,
surrounded
by
criminals
and
violence,
had
written
a
new
chapter
in
the
history
of
sports.
But
Shelly-Ann’s
victory
was
far
greater
than
that.
The
night
she
won
Olympic
gold
in
Beijing,
the
routine
murders
in
Waterhouse
and
the
drug
wars
in
the
neighbouring
streets
stopped.
The
dark
cloud
above
one
of
the
world’s
toughest
criminal
neighbourhoods
simply
disappeared
for
a
few
days.
“
I
have
so
much
fire
burning
for
my
country,”Shelly
said.
She
plans
to
start
a
foundation
for
homeless
children
and
wants
to
build
a
community
centre
in
Waterhouse.
She
hopes
to
inspire
the
Jamaicans
to
lay
down
their
weapons.
She
intends
to
fight
to
make
it
a
woman’s
as
well
as
a
man’s
world.
As
Muhammad
Ali
puts
it,
“
Champions
aren’t
made
in
gyms.
Champions
are
made
from
something
they
have
deep
inside
them.
A
desire,
a
dream,
a
vision.”
One
of
the
things
Shelly-Ann
can
be
proud
of
is
her
understanding
of
this
truth.
65.Why
did
Stephen
Francis
decide
to
coach
Shelly-Ann?
A.
He
had
a
strong
desire
to
free
her
family
from
trouble.
B.
He
sensed
a
great
potential
in
her
despite
her
weaknesses.
C.
She
had
big
problems
maintaining
her
performance.
D.
She
suffered
a
lot
of
defeats
at
the
previous
track
meets.
66.What
did
the
sprinting
world
think
of
Shelly-Ann
before
the
2008
Olympic
Games?
A.
She
would
become
a
promising
star.

badly
needed
to
set
higher
goals.
C.
Her
sprinting
career
would
not
last
long.
D.

talent
for
sprinting
was
known

the
track?

Her
success
and
lessons
in
her
career.

Shelly-Ann’s
quick
profit.
C.
Her
wish
to
get
Shelly-Ann
out
of
poverty.
D.
Her
early
entrance
into
the
sprinting
world.
68.

statement
underlined
in
Paragraph
5?
A.
She
was
highly
rewarded
for
her
efforts.

An?Extension?of?the?Human?Brain
Other
people
can
help
us
compensate
for
our
mental
and
emotional
deficiencies(欠缺),
much
as
a
wooden
leg
can
compensate
for
a
physical
deficiency.
To
be
exact,
other
people
can
extend
our
intelligence
and
help
us
understand
and
adjust
our
emotions.
When
another
person
helps
us
in
such
ways,
he
or
she
is
participating
in
what
I’ve
called
a
“social
prosthetic(义肢的)system.”
Such
systems
do
not
need
to
operate
face-to-face,
and
it’s
clear
to
me
that
the
Internet
is
expanding
the
range
of
my
own
social
prosthetic
systems.
It’s
already
a
big
bank
of
many
minds.
Even
in
its
current
state,
the
Internet
has
extended
my
memory
and
judgment.
Regarding
memory:
Once
I
look
up
something
on
the
Internet,
I
don’t
need
to
keep
all
the
details
for
future
use—I
know
where
to
find
that
information
again
and
can
quickly
and
easily
do
so.
More
generally,
the
Internet
functions
as
if
it
were
my
memory.
This
function
of
the
Internet
is
particularly
striking
when
I’m
writing;
I’m
no
longer
comfortable
writing
if
I’m
not
connected
to
the
Internet.
It’s
become
natural
to
check
facts
as
I
write,
taking
a
minute
or
two
to
dip
into
PubMed,
Wikipedia,
or
other
websites.
Regarding
judgment:
The
Internet
has
made
me
smarter
in
matters
small
and
large.
For
example,
when
I’m
writing
a
textbook,
it
has
become
second
nature
to
check
a
dozen
definitions
of
a
key
term,
which
helps
me
dig
into
the
core
and
understand
its
meaning.
But
more
than
that,
I
now
regularly
compare
my
views
with
those
of
many
others.
If
I
have
a
“new
idea”,
I
now
quickly
look
to
see
whether
somebody
else
has
already
thought
of
it,
or
something
similar—and
I
then
compare
what
I
think
with
what
others
have
thought.
This
certainly
makes
my
own
views
clearer.
Moreover,
I
can
find
out
whether
my
reactions
to
an
event
are
reasonable
enough
by
reading
about
those
of
others
on
the
Internet.
These
effects
of
the
Internet
have
become
even
more
striking
since
I’ve
begun
using
a
smartphone.
I
now
regularly
pull
out
my
phone
to
check
a
fact,
watch
a
video,
read
weibo.
Such
activities
fill
the
spaces
that
used
to
be
dead
time(such
as
waiting
for
somebody
to
arrive
for
a
lunch
meeting).
But
that’s
the
upside(好处).The
downside
is
that
in
those
dead
periods
I
often
would
let
my
thoughts
flow
and
sometimes
would
have
an
unexpected
insight
or
idea.
Those
opportunities
are
now
fewer
and
farther
between.

In
recent
years,
internet
voting
has
become
increasingly
popular
in
China.
People
not
only
cast
on-line
votes
themselves,
but
also
urge
others
to
vote
for
competitions
like
the
“Most
Beautiful
Teacher”
and
the
“
Cutest
Baby”.
Li
Jiang,
a
high
school
student,
is
invited
to
vote
in
the
“Best
Police
Officer
competition,
organized
by
the
local
government
to
let
the
public
have
a
better
understanding
of
police
officers’
daily
work.
Li
Jiang
visits
the
website
and
reads
all
the
stories.
He
is
deeply
moved
by
their
glorious
deeds.
He
is
already
thinking
of
becoming
a
policeman
himself
in
the
future.
Su
Hua
is
invited
by
his
uncle
to
vote
for
his
cousin
in
the
“
Future
Singer
competition.
He
has
already
received
three
similar
invitations
this
week.
His
uncle
tells
him
that
if
his
cousin
wins
the
competition,
the
family
will
win
an
overseas
tour
for
free.
Su
Hua
likes
his
cousin
very
much,
but
he
finds
other
singers
perform
even
better.
To
vote,
or
not
to
vote?
This
is
a
question
that
troubles
him
very
much.

That’s

Is

W:
Yes,
that’s
right.
I’d

change
the
check-in

Certainly.
I
can
make

Is
that

only
change?
W:
No,
the
check-out
date
will
also
change
from
the
23rd
to
the
24th.

No

We
have
you
arriving

September
and
leaving
the
24th
of
September—altogether,
eight
nights.
Will
there
be
anything
else?
W:
Yes.
Instead
of
a
courtyard
room,
I’d
like
a
room
with
a
view,
preferably
on
an
upper
floor.
M:
I
can
certainly
change
that
for
you,
but
there
will
be
a
change
in
the
room
rate.
The
new
rate
is
$199
per
night,
instead
of
the
original
$179.

Why

We’re

And
on

You’re

Isn’t

W:
No,
we’re
not.
It
is
a
bit
cold.
We’re
staying

It’s
not

five-star

But
it’s

You

Hello.
Welcome
to
the
program.
In
America,
May
and
June
are
the
traditional
months
for
graduations.
A
listener
in
China,
Wang
Ming,
who
is
about
to
get
an
engineering
degree,
wants
to
know
how
American
college
graduates
find
jobs.
Right
now,
the
answer
is:
not
very
easily.
A
latest
study
on
the
college
job
market
showed
that
employers
wanted
to
hire
22%
fewer
graduates
this
year
than
last.
The
study
also
showed
that
just
20%
of
those
who
looked
for
jobs
before
graduation
have
found
one
by
now.
This
is
compared
to
half
of
students
who
had
looked
for
a
job
by
this
time
two
years
ago.
But
one
difference:
fewer
of
this
year’s
graduates
have
started
to
search
for
jobs.
Engineering
graduates
were
more
likely
to
have
started
their
job
search
already,
and
to
have
accepted
a
job.
This
is
among
the
best-paid
professions
for
people
with
just
a
college
degree.
On
average,
engineering
majors
expect
to
start
at
about
$62,000
a
year.

第一节:单项填空(共15小题;每小题1分,满分15分)
请阅读下面各题,从题中所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中,选出最佳选项,并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。
21.It
is
often
the
case
_______
anything
is
possible
for
those
who
hang
on
to
hope.
A.
why
B.
what
C.
as
D.
that
【答案】D
【解析】考查名词从句。本句中“it”为形式主语,真正的主语是后面的主语从句。该从句成分齐全,不缺任何成分,故用“that”引导,因为“that”只起引导名词从句的作用,在从句中不作任何成分,也没有相应的具体意思。句意:通常情况下,对于那些坚持希望的人来说,任何事情都是有可能的。
22.More
efforts,
as
reported,
_______
in
the
years
ahead
to
accelerate
the
supply-side
structural
reform.
A.
are
made
B.
will
be
made
C.
are
being
made
D.
have
been
made
【答案】B
【解析】考查动词的时态和语态。一般将来时(被动语态)。时间状语“in
the
years
ahead”意为“在未来几年”说明要用一般将来是。句意:据报道,为了加速供给侧结构性改革,在今后几年将做出更大的努力。
23.Many
young
people,
most
_______
were
well-educated,
headed
for
remote
regions
to
chase
their
dreams.
A.
of
which
B.
of
them
C.
of
whom
D.
of
those
【答案】C
【解析】考查定语从句。先行词是Many
young
people,关系代词whom指代先行词,在定语从句中作介词of的宾语。故C项正确。句意:很多年轻人前往偏远地区去追求他们的梦想,他们中大多数人都是受过良好教育的。
24.—Can
you
tell
us
your
_______
for
happiness
and
a
long
life?
—Living
every
day
to
the
full,
definitely.
A.
recipe
B.
record
C.
range
D.
receipt
【答案】A
【解析】考查名词的辨析。recipe秘诀,食谱,药方;record记录;range范围;receipt收据,收条。根据句意可知A项意为“秘诀”,与上下文相符。句意:“你能否把你的快乐长寿的秘诀告诉我?”“当然是每天生活得要充实。”
25.He
did
not
_______
easily,
but
was
willing
to
accept
any
constructive
advice
for
a
worthy
cause.
A.
approach
B.
wrestle
C.
compromise
D.
communicate
【答案】C
【解析】考查动词的辨析。approach靠近,接近;wrestle摔跤,斗争,努力解决;compromise妥协,和解,让步;communicate交流。句意:他是不轻易作出妥协的,但愿意为一个有价值的事业接受任何建设性的建议。
26._______
some
people
are
motivated
by
a
need
for
success,
others
are
motivated
by
a
fear
of
failure.
A.
Because
B.
If
C.
Unless
D.
While
【答案】D
【解析】考查状语从句。because因为;if如果;unless除非;while尽管,然而,当……时。根据句意可知此处表转折,所以使用while“尽管”。句意:尽管有些人的动机是出于对成功的渴望,但也有些人的动机却是出于对失败的恐惧。
27.If
it
_______
for
his
invitation
the
other
day,
I
should
not
be
here
now.
A.
had
not
been
B.
should
not
be
C.
were
not
to
be
D.
should
not
have
been
【答案】A
【解析】考查虚拟语气。the
other
day提示是过去时间,下文的should
not
be
here
now提示是与现在事实相反的虚拟语气。因此if从句应该是与过去事实相反的虚拟语气。本题是对混合虚拟条件句的考查。句意:如果不是因为前几天他的邀请,我现在就不会在这里了。
28.In
art
criticism,
you
must
assume
the
artist
has
a
secret
message
_______
within
the
work.
A.
to
hide
B.
hidden
C.
hiding
D.
being
hidden
【答案】B
【解析】考查非谓语动词。hidden=which
is
hidden,过去分词短语作后置定语。句意:在艺术批评中,你必须假设艺术家在作品里隐藏着一个不为人知的信息。
29.Dashan,
who
_______
crosstalk,
the
Chinese
comedic

it
up

the
Western
stand-up
tradition.
A.
will
be
learning
B.
is
learning
C.
had
been
learning
D.
has
been
learning
【答案】D
【解析】考查动词的时态。本句的时间状语是“for
decades几十年来”,该时间状语通常和现在完成的有关时态连用。使用现在完成进行时,强调动作的延续性。句意:大山学习中国传统喜剧形式——相声已经几十年了,他想把它与西方的单口喜剧传统结合起来。
30.Many
businesses
started
up
by
college
students
have
_______
thanks
to
the
comfortable
climate
for
business
creation.
A.
fallen
off
B.
taken
off
C.

off
D.
left
off
【答案】B
【解析】考查动词短语的辨析。fall
off跌落,下降;take
off起飞,成功,腾飞;turn
off关闭;leave
off停止,中断。句意:由于良好的创业环境,很多大学生创办的生意都很成功。
31.His

_______
statements
of
how,
and
on
what
basis,

【答案】A
【解析】考查形容词的辨析。explicit明晰的,清楚的;ambiguous模棱两可的,含糊不清的;original原始的,最初的;arbitrary
任意的,专制的。句意:对于如何以及以什么为基础来收集数据,他的综合调查提供了最明晰的陈述。
32.—Only

get
along
well.

sometimes
do
attract.
A.
I
hope
not
B.
I
think
so
C.
I
appreciate
that
D.
I
beg
to
differ
【答案】D
【解析】考查情景交际。I
hope
not我可不希望这样;I
think
so我认为如此;I
appreciate
that我很感激;I
beg
to
differ恕我不能同意;本题的关键词是后句“Opposites
sometimes
do
attract.”意见相反的人有时会相互吸引。说明对话两个人的意见并不一致。故D项“恕我不能同意”符合上下文。句意:“只有那些有很多共同之处的人才能相处得很好。”“恕我不能同意。有时候是相异而相吸的。”
33.Parents
should
actively
urge
their
children
to
_______
the
opportunity
to

sports
teams.
A.

admission
to
B.

to
【答案】C
【解析】考查动词短语辨析。gain
admission
to获准进入;keep
track
of记录;take
advantage
of利用;give
rise
to引起。句意:父母亲应该积极鼓励孩子抓住机会参加体育活动。

rural
areas.
A.
they
had
encouraged
B.
had
they
encouraged
C.
did
they
encourage
D.
they
encouraged
【答案】C
【解析】考查特殊句式(倒装句)。当not
until所引导的时间状语放在句首时,主句要使用部分倒装。排除AD选项,B项为过去完成时,而上下文中并没有体现过去的过去的时间状语。句意:直到最近他们才鼓励在农村地区开展与旅游业有关的活动。
35.—Jack

Years
ago,
a
critical
event
occurred
in
my
life
that
would
change
it
forever.
I
met
Kurt
Kampmeir
of
Success
Motivation
Incorporation
for
breakfast.
While
we
were
___36___,
Kurt
asked
me,
“John,
what
is
your
___37___
for
personal
growth?”
Never
at
a
loss
for
words,
I
tried
to
find
things
in
my
life
that
might
___38___
for
growth.
I
told
him
about
the
many
activities
in
which
I
was
___39___.
And
I
went
into
a
___40___
about
how
hard
I
worked
and
the
gains
I
was
making.
I
must
have
talked
for
ten
minutes.
Kurt
___41___
patiently,
but
then
he
___42___
smiled
and
said,
“You
don’t
have
a
personal
plan
for
growth,
do
you?”
“No,
I
___43___.”
“You
know,”
Kurt
said
simply,
“growth
is
not
a(n)
___44___
process.”
And
that’s
when
it
___45___
me.
I
wasn’t
doing
anything
___46___
to
make
myself
better.
And
at
that
moment,
I
made
the
___47___:
I
will
develop
and
follow
a
personal
growth
plan
for
my
___48___.
That
night,
I
talked
to
my
wife
about
my
___49___
with
Kurt
and
what
I
had
learned.
I
___50___
her
the
workbook
and
tapes
Kurt
was
selling.
We
___51___
that
Kurt
wasn’t
just
trying
to
make
a
sale.
He
was
offering
a
___52___
for
us
to
change
our
lives
and
achieve
our
dreams.
Several
important
things
happened
that
day.
First,
we
decided
to
___53___
the
resources.
But
more
importantly,
we
made
a
commitment
to
___54___
together
as
a
couple.
From
that
day
on,
we
learned
together,
traveled
together,
and
sacrificed
together.
It
was
a
___55___
decision.
While
too
many
couples
grow
apart,
we
were
growing
together.
【语篇解读】本文属于记叙文。文章第一句话“Years
ago,
a
critical
event
occurred
in
my
life
that
would
change
it
forever.”几年前,在我的生活中发生了一件会永远改变我的人生的重大事件”引出下文:如果我们要成功,就需要有详细的个人成长计划,在柯特的影响之下,我和妻子在一起成长,取得了很好的个人成就。
36.A.
working
B.
preparing
C.
thinking
D.
eating
【答案】D
【解析】working工作;preparing准备;thinking思考,想;eating吃。联系上文中的“for

37.A.
suggestion
B.
demand
C.
plan
D.
request
【答案】C
【解析】suggestion建议;demand要求,需求;plan计划;request要求,请求,要求的事。联系第二段最后一句话“You
don’t

for
growth,
do
you?对于个人成长你并没有什么计划,是吧?”可知柯特在问我个人成长计划是什么。故C项正确。
38.A.
appeal
B.
look
C.
call
D.
qualify
【答案】D
【解析】appeal呼吁,吸引(通常与to连用);look
for寻找;call

for有……资格。联系上文当柯特提出的问题,这里应该是:我在尝试找找“有资格”称之为“成长”的东西。故D项正确。
39.A.
involved
B.
trapped
C.
lost
D.
bathed
【答案】A
【解析】本句是定语从句activities
(in
which
I
was
_______),修饰先行词activities,介词in被提到了关系代词which之前,实际上就是I
was
_______
in
these
activities的语序。be
involved
in参与到……,卷入……;be
trapped
in被困在……中;be
lost
in沉浸于……;be
bathed
in被……笼罩。我告诉了他我所参加的许多活动。根据句意可知A项正确。
40.A.
lecture
B.
speech
C.
discussion
D.
debate
【答案】B
【解析】联系上文:我开始回答Kurt的问题,我滔滔不绝地讲了我是多么努力工作,不断取得了怎样的成绩。再联系下文“I
must
have
talked
for
ten
minutes我肯定讲了有十分钟的时间”说明是在演讲。go
into
a
speech发表演讲。lecture讲座,讲课;discussion讨论;debate辩论,争论。
41.A.
calculated
B.
listened
C.
drank
D.
explained
【答案】B
【解析】上题答案选正确了,这一题的答案就很容易搞定:上文讲我滔滔不绝地讲,一讲就是十分钟,那么Kurt就应该是listened
patiently(耐心地听),故B正确。calculate计算,估算;drink喝;explain解释。
42.A.
eagerly
B.
gradually
C.
gratefully
D.
finally
【答案】D
【解析】上文讲:“我”在滔滔不绝地讲,一讲就是十分钟,而Kurt则是耐心地听,所以是Kurt最终(听完后)说了一句,故D正确。耐心地听我讲了很长时间,最后他笑着对我说:对于个人成长你并没有什么计划,是吧?eagerly急切地;gradually逐渐地;gratefully感激地;finally最后,终于。
43.A.
admitted
B.
interrupted
C.
apologized
D.
complained
【答案】A
【解析】联系上文:Kurt询问我的个人成长计划,而我却说了一大通确实并不相关的话题,所以对Kurt最终(听完后)问的问题,作者只好承认(admitted)没有个人成长计划。故A项正确。interrupt打断;apologize道歉;complain抱怨。“柯特笑着对我说:对于个人成长你并没有什么计划,是吧?”这是一个前面否定的反义疑问句,在回答的时候“no”翻译为“是的”。说明我承认自己并没有什么个人成长计划。
44.A.
automatic
B.
slow
C.
independent
D.
changing
【答案】A
【解析】automatic自动的;slow缓慢的;independent独立的;changing不断变化的。本题需要对上文进行连贯的把握:上文Kurt一直在问作者“有没有个人成长计划”这个问题。可见Kurt认为这个“计划”的重要,所以可以推出:Kurt是在提醒作者“成长并不是一个自动的过程(潜台词就是:个人成长是需要来规划的)”,
故A正确。
45.A.
confused
B.
informed
C.
pleased
D.
hit
【答案】D
【解析】联系上文可知Kurt一语道破,他的提醒使我突然意识到自己之前并没有做个任何个人成长计划。如果对“hit”“使……突然意识到,突然想起来”的意义不很熟悉,那么可以用排除法解题。confuse使……困惑;inform通知;please使……高兴,取悦;hit使……突然意识到,突然想起来。
46.A.
on
loan
B.
on
purpose
C.
on
sale
D.
on
balance
【答案】B
【解析】本题根据全文的主旨推断答案:作者通过Kurt的提醒意识到自己一直以来并没有对自己的成长有个清晰的规划,也就是说没有有目的地(on
purpose)去提升自己(make
myself
better),故B项正确。on
loan借贷,借用;on
purpose故意地,有意地,有目的地;on
sale抛售,打折出售;on
balance总之。他的话让我意识到自己的确没有有意地做一些让自己更好的事情。
47.A.
comment
B.
announcement
C.
decision
D.
arrangement
【答案】C
【解析】联系上文:既然一直以来都没有一个个人成长计划,那么现在作者就作出了一个决定:开发并遵循一个个人成长计划。下文It
was
a
___55___
decision.可以用来验证答案,故C项正确。
48.A.
life
B.
progress
C.
performance
D.
investment
【答案】A
【解析】本题最大的障碍就是B选项,因为progress(进步)与上文的growth(成长)对应了起来。其实个人成长计划里就包含了BCD三个选项,只有“life人生”涵盖的范围最广,这里指的是“你的人生的成长方案是什么?”,故A正确。progress进步;performance表现;investment投资;
49.A.
contract
B.
conversation
C.
negotiation
D.
argument
【答案】B
【解析】contract合同,契约;conversation对话;negotiation谈判;协商;argument争论。根据文章前两段可知我和柯特在吃早饭的时候,进行了一次关于个人成长计划的对话,所以这里是说:作者回家后跟妻子谈到了自己与Kurt的对话,故B正确。
50.A.
lent
B.
sold
C.
showed
D.
offered
【答案】C
【解析】联系上文:作者回家后跟妻子谈到了自己与Kurt的对话以及从对话中所学到的东西,可知作者将Kurt卖给他的东西展示(showed)给妻子看。故C正确。lend借入;sell出售;offer提供。
51.A.
recalled
B.
defined
C.
recognized
D.
declared
【答案】C
【解析】空格后是一个宾语从句“that
Kurt
wasn’t
just
trying
to
make
a
sale.
Kurt不只是想做买卖”应该与“recognize认识到,意识到”搭配,故C正确。recall回忆;define定义;declare宣布。
52.A.
tool
B.
method
C.
way
D.
rule
【答案】C
【解析】上题答案搞定后,52题相对就容易了。联系上下文应该是说:Kurt不只是想做买卖,而是给我们提供一个改变生活和实现梦想的方法。本题的难点在于是用way还是用method,需要深层次考量:method一般是指用来解决一些学习、学术、技术等方面问题的方法。way在本文里的含义应该是“方向,道路”,结合文章来看,在文章中指的是人生的道路,具有更深的含义。故C项正确。
53.A.
provide
B.
buy
C.
give
D.
deliver
【答案】B
【解析】联系上文Kurt卖给作者workbooks
and
tapes,而空格后的“the
resources”正是指的这些资源。由此可以看出,Kurt卖给作者,反过来就是作者买过来的,故B项正确。
54.A.
grow
B.
survive
C.
move
D.
gather
【答案】A
【解析】联系上文可知柯特和我谈论的是个人成长的话题,我和妻子在他的影响下承诺共同成长。最后一句话“While
too
many
couples
grow
apart,
we
were
growing
together在好多夫妻渐行渐远的时候,我们共同成长”可以验证答案,故A正确。
55.A.
difficult
B.
random
C.
firm
D.
wise
【答案】D
【解析】联系上下文:作者夫妇共同学习、共同旅行、一起奉献,在好多夫妻渐行渐远的时候,他们却共同成长,说明这是一个“wise明智的”决定,故D正确。difficult困难的;random随机的,任意的,胡乱的;firm坚定的。
第三部分:阅读理解(共15小题;每小题2分,满分30分)

【答案】D
【解析】细节理解题。考查网上学习与TDSB网路课程的区别在于:定位到“These
on-line
courses”部分列出的三点:A选项对应第一点,但是把“TDSB
secondary
school
teachers”偷梁换柱成“best
TDSB

the
TDSB
Student’s

the
Student’s

e-Learning部分中的“Include:
access
to

【答案】B
【解析】细节理解题。在线课程带来的好处里的第二条(Using
technology
to
provide
students
with
current
information)明确说明是利用技术给学生们提供最新的信息,而A选项的意思是在线学习信息技术,显然不对。B选项与在线学习能给我们带来什么的第一条和第二条相符,两个单词“assignments,
independently”分别出现在第一条和第二条里。C选项把“use”偷梁换柱成“update”;根据文章最后一句“学生需要花在在线课程上的时间至少和他们花在面对面的课堂课程上的时间一样多”排除D选项。
B
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
great
effort,
a
plate
that
also
provides
food
for
a
neighbor
to
the
next
cage,
he
will
pull
at
random—he
just
doesn’t
care
whether
his
neighbor
gets
fed
or
not.
Chimps
are
truly
selfish.
Human
children,
on
the
other
hand
are
extremely
corporative.
From
the
earliest
ages,
they
decide
to
help
others,
to
share
information
and
to
participate
a
achieving
common
goals.
The
psychologist
Michael
Tomasello
has
studied
this
cooperativeness
in
a
series
of
expensive
with
very
young
children.
He
finds
that
if
babies
aged
18
months
see
a
worried
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
rewarded.
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?Tomtasello,?the?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
in
what
Tomasello
calls
what.
Part
of
this
ability
is
that
they
can
infer
what
others
know
or
are
thinking.
But
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.
【语篇解读】这是一个实验报告(科普说明文);实验的对象和内容:人类的幼儿与黑猩猩在合作方面的对比;然后得出了结论:孩子们思维所具备的和黑猩猩的思维所不具备的核心问题就是Tomasello所称为的共享意向问题(与人合作是人类本性天生就具备的鲜明特点)。
58.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.
【答案】A
【解析】细节理解题。根据文章第二段中的“In
the
laboratory,
chimps
don’t
naturally
share
food
either.在实验室里,黑猩猩天生也不会把食物分享给别人”可以直接排除BD选项。根据第二段钟的“he
just
doesn’t
care
whether
his
neighbor
gets
fed
or
not.
Chimps
are
truly
selfish.他才不管他的邻居有没有。黑猩猩真的很自私。”可以锁定答案A。C选项只是陈述了一个事实,这只是个现象,而不是从各种现象中得到有的结论。
59.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
【答案】A
【解析】推理判断题。根据第三段最后一句“他发现如果18个月大的幼儿看见手里满是东西的成年人心惊胆战试图开门时,几乎所有幼儿都会立即试图帮助他”和第四段第一句“有理由相信那些去帮助,提醒和分享的欲望并不是别人教的,而是在年幼孩子们身上自然就拥有的”可以推断出:帮助别人是孩子的本能。故A项正确。B选项“知道如何帮助成年人”,这个选项有迷惑性,文中指出:幼儿看到成年人双手满满心惊胆战试图开门,只是有欲望去帮助他们,这只是本能,他们却没有能力去帮助成年人,也就谈不上知道如何去帮他人了。C选项“比黑猩猩更加了解世界”,如果你混淆“physical
world”和“social
world”这两个概念,就会误选。在“physical
world”层面,人类的幼儿无法跟黑猩猩相比的;而在“social
world”层面,黑猩猩根本无法与人类幼儿相提并论。D选项“相信手中拿满东西的成年人”,这显然与文中所述事实不符。如果是这样的话,他们就不会处于本能有帮助成年人的冲动。
60.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】C
【解析】主旨大意题。本文通过人类的幼儿与黑猩猩的对比,得出了结论:与人合作是人类本性天生就具备的鲜明特点。故C项正确。A选项“幼儿的帮助行为”,这只是本文所有论述大量事实中的一个,并不是最主要的一个。B选项“训练孩子们共享意向的方法”,本文是提到了共享意向,但并没有给出训练共享意向的方法。D选项“孩子们智力的发展”,跟选项A一样,只是提到的众多事实中第一个,不是最主要的一个。
C
El
Nifio,
a
Spanish
term
for
“the
Christ
child”,
was
named
by
South
American
fishermen
who
noticed
that
the
global
weather
pattern,
which
happens
every
two
to
seven
years,
reduced
the
amount
of
fishes
caught
around
Christmas.
El
Nifio
sees
warm
water,
collected
over
several
years
in
the
western
Pacific,
flow
back
eastwards
when
winds
that
normally
blow
westwards
weaken,
or
sometimes
the
other
way
round.
The
weather
effects
both
good
and
bad,
are
felt
in
many
places.
Rich
countries
gain
more
from
powerful
Nifio,
on
balance,
than
they
lose.
A
study
found
that
a
strong
Nifio
in
1997
helped
American’s
economy
grow
by
15
billion,
partly
because
of
better
agricultural
harvest,
farmers
in
the
Midwest
gained
from
extra
rain.
The
total
rise
in
agricultural
in
rich
countries
in
growth
than
the
fall
in
poor
ones.
But
in
Indonesia
extremely
dry
forests
are
in
flames.
A
multi-year
drought(干旱)in
south-east
Brazil
is
becoming
worse.
Though
heavy
rains
brought
about
by
El
Nino
may
relieve
the
drought
in
California,
they
are
likely
to
cause
surface
flooding
and
other
disasters.
The
most
recent
powerful
Nino,
in
1997-98,
killed
around
21,000
people
and
caused
damage
worth
$36
billion
around
the
globe.
But
such
Ninos
come
with
months
of
warning,
and
so
much
is
known
about
how
they
happen
that
governments
can
prepare.
According
to
the
Overseas
Development
Institute(ODI),
however,
just
12%
of
disaster-relief
funding
in
the
past
two
decades
has
gone
on
reducing
risks
in
advance,
rather
than
recovery
and
rebuilding
afterwards.
This
is
despite
evidence
that
a
dollar
spent
on
risk-reduction
saves
at
least
two
on
reconstruction.
Simple
improvements
to
infrastructure(基础设施)can
reduce
the
spread
of
disease.
Better
sewers(下水道)
make
it
less
likely
that
heavy
rain
is
followed
by
an
outbreak
of
the
disease
of
bad
stomach.
Stronger
bridges
mean
villages
are
less
likely
to
be
left
without
food
and
medicine
after
floods.
According
to
a
paper
in
2011
by
Mr.
Hsiang
and
co-authors,
civil
conflict
is
related
to
El
Nino’s
harmful
effects—and
the
poorer
the
country,
the
stronger
the
link.
Though
the
relationship
may
not
be
causal,
helping
divided
communities
to
prepare
for
disasters
would
at
least
reduce
the
risk
that
those
disasters
are
followed
by
killing
and
wounding
people.
Since
the
poorest
are
least
likely
to
make
up
for
their
losses
from
disasters
linked
to
El
Nino,
reducing
their
losses
needs
to
be
the
priority.
【语篇解读】文章第一段介绍了厄尔尼诺现象和它的起源,由此可知本文体裁为说明文(科普)。以下各段主要介绍了厄尔尼诺现象对地球的影响:有好的一面,也有坏的一面。并对坏的一面的影响提出建议:政府要在提前防范以降低灾难所带来的风险上加大投资,而不是在出现问题以后进行重新补救和恢复。
61.What
can
we
learn
about
El
Nino
in
Paragraph
1?
A.
It
is
named
after
a
South
American
fisherman.
B.
It
takes
place
almost
every
year
all
over
the
world.
C.
It
forces
fishermen
to
stop
catching
fish
around
Christmas.
D.
It
sees
the
changes
of
water
flow
direction
in
the
ocean.
【答案】D
【解析】细节理解题。根据第一段最后一句“厄尔尼诺表现为温暖的海水,每几年就会在西太平洋汇聚,当正常向西吹拂的海风减弱时,就会向东回流,或者从其他路径回流”可知厄尔尼诺现象见证了海洋中水流方向的变化。故D正确。A选项“它是以一个南美州渔民命名的”,偷换概念:“它是由南美洲渔民命名的(was
named
by
South
American
fishermen),而不是以一个南美州渔民命名的。”B选项“厄尔尼诺现象在全世界范围内几乎每年都会发生”,文中明确说明是2-7年才发生一次。C选项“厄尔尼诺阻止渔民在圣诞节期间捕鱼”文中只是说厄尔尼诺会让渔民在圣诞节期间捕鱼的数量下降,而不是阻止不让渔民捕鱼。D选项“厄尔尼诺目睹了洋流方向的变化”与第一段里“El
Nino
sees
warm
water,
collected
over
several
years
in
the
western
Pacific,
flow
back
eastwards
when
winds
that
normally
blow
westwards
weaken,
or
sometimes
the
other
way
round.”叙述一致故D正确。
62.What
may
El
Ninos
bring
about
to
the
countries
affected?
A.
Agricultural
harvests
in
rich
countries
fall.
B.
Droughts
become
more
harmful
than
floods.
C.
Rich
countries’
gains
are
greater
than
their
losses.
D.
Poor
countries
suffer
less
from
droughts
economically.
【答案】C
【解析】细节理解题。A选项“农业收成在富裕国家下降”与“A
study
found
that
a
strong
Nifio
in
1997
helped
American’s
economy
grow
by
15
billion,
…一项研究发现1997发生的强厄尔尼诺使得美国的经济增长了150亿美元”相矛盾;B选项“干旱比洪水危害性更大”与“Though
heavy
rains
brought
about
by
El
Nino
may
relieve
the
drought
in
California,
they
are
likely
to
cause
surface
flooding
and
other
disasters.虽然厄尔尼诺带来的大雨可以缓解加利福尼亚的干旱,但也可能会导致洪灾发生和其他的灾难”不符;C选项“富裕国家的收入大于他们的损失”与“Rich
countries
gain
more
from
powerful
Nifio,
on
balance,
than
they
lose.总的说来,厄尔尼诺给富裕的国家带来的好处要大于坏处”相符,故C正确。如果考生不细心,以为本文的比较发生在穷国和富国之间,就会排除该选项。然而本选项却是富国自己内部的比较,与穷国无关。D选项“从经济的角度来说,干旱对贫穷国家造成的损失较小”,这个论断文章并没有提到,只是讲印度尼西亚的深林着火,巴西东南部的干旱持续恶化,美国加利福尼亚的也遭受干旱。在讲干旱方面,上述国家都很严重,但是并没有进行比较。
63.The
data
provided
by
ODI
in
Paragraph
4
suggest
that
_______.
A.
more
investment
should
go
to
risk
reduction
B.
governments
of
poor
countries
need
more
aid
C.
victims
of
El
Nino
deserve
more
compensation
D.
recovery
and
reconstruction
should
come
first
【答案】A
【解析】细节理解题。A选项“在降低灾害风险方面应该增加投入”与第四段第三句和第三段最后一句相关联。第四段第三句“然而,按照ODI的说法,在过去的20年里只有12%的救灾基金被用在提前降低灾难带来的风险上,而不是用在事后恢复生产和家园重建上。”说明在预防减灾方面我们投入的还是比较少的,大部分都投入到了灾后的恢复和重建上了。作者实际上在阐述事实的同时还有埋怨的意味,多少带点个人情绪在里面。第三段最后一句”This
is
despite
evidence
that
a
dollar
spent
on
risk-reduction
saves
at
least
two
on
reconstruction.”这个论据在支撑作者的观点,那就是尽管有证据表明灾前花一美元可以节省灾后的两美元,可是仅仅只有12%的资金被用在灾前,这个比例太少了!也就是说作者是支持事前预防而不是事后弥补的。故A项正确。B选项“穷国政府需要更多救助”,文章中没有提到要救助穷国的政府。C选项“厄尔尼诺受害者应得到更多补偿”,根据“reducing
their
losses
needs
to
be
the
priority”说明这个观点是错的。作者只是认为受害者应该被优先考虑,而并没有说要给予更多补偿。D选项“灾后恢复和重建应首要考虑”,这个观点显然和作者文中的观点完全相反。
64.What
is
the
author’s
purpose
in
writing
the
passage?
A.
To
introduce
El
Nino
and
its
origin.
B.
To
explain
the
consequences
of
El
Nino.
C.
To
show
ways
of
fighting
against
El
Nino.
D.
To
urge
people
to
prepare
for
El
Nino.
【答案】D
【解析】推理判断题(推断作者的写作意图)。A选项“介绍厄尔尼诺现象和它的起源”,这不是作者写
文章的目的,这只是事实的陈述。B选项“解释了厄尔尼诺的带来的后果”这只是作者文章内容的一部分,也不是最终目的。C选项“介绍了应对厄尔尼诺的办法”这也只是作者文章内容的一部分,不是最终目的。D选项“敦促人们为预防厄尔尼诺应提前做好准备”,作者一直强调提前预防的重要性,这是写作这篇文章的目的。
D
Not
so
long
ago,
most
people
didn’t
know
who
Shelly
Ann
Francis
Pryce
was
going
to
become.
She
was
just
an
average
high
school
athlete.
There
was
every
indication
that
she
was
just
another
American
teenager
without
much
of
a
future.
However,
one
person
wants
to
change
this.
Stephen
Francis
observed
then
eighteen-year-old
Shelly
Ann
as
a
track
meet
and
was
convinced
that
he
had
seen
the
beginning
of
true
greatness.
Her
time
were
not
exactly
impressive,
but
even
so,
he
seemed
there
was
something
trying
to
get
out,
something
the
other
coaches
had
overlooked
when
they
had
assessed
her
and
found
her
lacking.
He
decided
to
offer
Shelly
Ann
a
place
in
his
very
strict
training
seasons.
Their
cooperation
quickly
produced
results,
and
a
few
year
later
at
Jamaica’s
Olympic
games
in
early
2008,
Shelly
Ann,
who
at
that
time
only
ranked
number
70
in
the
world,
beat
Jamaica’s
unchallenged
queen
of
the
sprint(短跑).
“Where
did
she
come
from?”
asked
an
astonished
sprinting
world,
before
concluding
that
she
must
be
one
of
those
one-hit
wonders
that
spring
up
from
time
to
time,
only
to
disappear
again
without
signs.
But
Shelly
Ann
was
to
prove
that
she
was
anything
but
a
one-hit
wonder.
At
the
Beijing
Olympic
she
swept
away
any
doubts
about
her
ability
to
perform
consistently
by
becoming
the
first
Jamaican
woman
ever
to
win
the
100
meters
Olympic
gold.
She
did
it
again
one
year
on
at
the
World
Championship
in
Briton,
becoming
world
champion
with
a
time
of
10.73—the
fourth
record
ever.
Shelly-Ann
is
a
little
woman
with
a
big
smile.
She
has
a
mental
toughness
that
did
not
come
about
by
chance.
Her
journey
to
becoming
the
fastest
woman
on
earth
has
been
anything
but
smooth
and
effortless.
She
grew
up
in
one
of
Jamaica’s
toughest
inner-city
communities
known
as
Waterhouse,
where
she
lived
in
a
one-room
apartment,
sleeping
four
in
a
bed
with
her
mother
and
two
brothers.
Waterhouse,
one
of
the
poorest
communities
in
Jamaica,
is
a
really
violent
and
overpopulated
place.
Several
of
Shelly-Ann’s
friends
and
family
were
caught
up
in
the
killings;
one
of
her
cousins
was
shot
dead
only
a
few
streets
away
from
where
she
lived.
Sometimes
her
family
didn’t
have
enough
to
eat.
She
ran
at
the
school
championships
barefooted
because
she
couldn’t
afford
shoes.
Her
mother
Maxime,
one
of
a
family
of
fourteen,
had
been
an
athlete
herself
as
a
young
girl
but,
like
so
many
other
girls
in
Waterhouse,
had
to
stop
after
she
had
her
first
baby.
Maxime’s
early
entry
into
the
adult
world
with
its
responsibilities
gave
her
the
determination
to
ensure
that
her
kids
would
not
end
up
in
Waterhouse’s
roundabout
of
poverty.
One
of
the
first
things
Maxime
used
to
do
with
Shelly-Ann
was
taking
her
to
the
track,
and
she
was
ready
to
sacrifice
everything.
It
didn’t
take
long
for
Shelly-Ann
to
realize
that
sports
could
be
her
way
out
of
Waterhouse.
On
a
summer
evening
in
Beijing
in
2008,
all
those
long,
hard
hours
of
work
and
commitment
finally
bore
fruit.
The
barefoot
kid
who
just
a
few
years
previously
had
been
living
in
poverty,
surrounded
by
criminals
and
violence,
had
written
a
new
chapter
in
the
history
of
sports.
But
Shelly-Ann’s
victory
was
far
greater
than
that.
The
night
she
won
Olympic
gold
in
Beijing,
the
routine
murders
in
Waterhouse
and
the
drug
wars
in
the
neighbouring
streets
stopped.
The
dark
cloud
above
one
of
the
world’s
toughest
criminal
neighbourhoods
simply
disappeared
for
a
few
days.
“
I
have
so
much
fire
burning
for
my
country,”Shelly
said.
She
plans
to
start
a
foundation
for
homeless
children
and
wants
to
build
a
community
centre
in
Waterhouse.
She
hopes
to
inspire
the
Jamaicans
to
lay
down
their
weapons.
She
intends
to
fight
to
make
it
a
woman’s
as
well
as
a
man’s
world.
As
Muhammad
Ali
puts
it,
“
Champions
aren’t
made
in
gyms.
Champions
are
made
from
something
they
have
deep
inside
them.
A
desire,
a
dream,
a
vision.”
One
of
the
things
Shelly-Ann
can
be
proud
of
is
her
understanding
of
this
truth.
【语篇解读】本文是一篇记叙文(人物传记)。故事的主人公名叫Shelly-Ann;故事描述了Shelly-Ann从不被人看好到在贵人的培养下成为奥运冠军,再到最后成为世界上跑得最快的女性的成长过程;最后一段揭示主题:冠军并非产自体育场。冠军来自于深藏于他们内心的信念。它是一种渴望,一个梦想,一段愿景。本文是一篇典型的励志故事。
65.Why
did
Stephen
Francis
decide
to
coach
Shelly-Ann?
A.
He
had
a
strong
desire
to
free
her
family
from
trouble.
B.
He
sensed
a
great
potential
in
her
despite
her
weaknesses.
C.
She
had
big
problems
maintaining
her
performance.
D.
She
suffered
a
lot
of
defeats
at
the
previous
track
meets.
【答案】B
【解析】细节理解题。根据第一段五、六句“那时Stephen
Francis注意到18岁的Shelly
Ann
在田径运动会上的表现,他坚信他已经看到了真正的伟大诞生的发端。在当时她的表现并不令人印象深刻,但是即便如此,他认为也需要发掘点什么,那是其他教练在评估她的能力并发现她缺少点什么时所忽略的”可知Stephen
Francis教练从她的身上看到了其他教练忽视的潜力。故B正确(尽管她有弱点,但他感到她有巨大的潜力),这才是Stephen
Francis决定要帮助她的原因。A选项“他非常渴望帮助她的家庭摆脱困境”很显然不是的。C选项“在保持竞技状态方面她有很大的问题”,如果她有很大的问题,就不会有人去帮助她,为她投资。D选项“在以前的田径比赛中它遭受了很多失败”,文章没有提及这点。
66.What
did
the
sprinting
world
think
of
Shelly-Ann
before
the
2008
Olympic
Games?
A.
She
would
become
a
promising
star.
B.
She
badly
needed
to
set
higher
goals.
C.
Her
sprinting
career
would
not
last
long.
D.
Her
talent
for
sprinting
was
known
to
all.
【答案】C
【解析】细节理解题。根据第二段第一句:“她从哪来的?”吃惊一片的世界短跑界都在问这个问题。后来他们得出结论她肯定就是那些不时跳出来的昙花一现奇迹之中的一个奇迹罢了,最终只会无声无息地消失。由此可以推断:当时的短跑界都认为她是昙花一现而已,所以“她的跑步生涯不会持续很久”。故C项正确。A选项“她将成为一个非常有前途的体育明星”这个选项是不对的,因为当时的短跑界都认为她是昙花一现而已。B选项“她迫切需要设定更高的目标”,文章里并没有提及这个问题。D选项“她在短跑上所展示出来的天赋已人所共知”,在北京奥运会之前,人们对她并不了解。这个选项也是不对的。
67.
What
made
Maxime
decide
to
train
her
daughter
on
the
track?
A.
Her
success
and
lessons
in
her
career.
B.
Her
interest
in
Shelly-Ann’s
quick
profit.
C.
Her
wish
to
get
Shelly-Ann
out
of
poverty.
D.
Her
early
entrance
into
the
sprinting
world.
【答案】C
【解析】细节理解题。根据第三段最后两句“Shelly-Ann的母亲Maxime过早地肩负起了成年人才有的责任促使她下定决心要保证她的孩子不能在水屋无所不在的贫穷里堕落下去,Maxime过去经常做的第一件事就是带她去跑步,而且Maxime也做好了牺牲自己一切的准备。”由此推断”她期望Shelly-Ann能够摆脱贫穷”。故C项正确。A选项“她职业生涯中的成功经验和教训”文章里没有提,谈不上成功和教训。B选项“她对Shelly-Ann能为她快速赚钱感兴趣”这个更没有提及,当然也不可能是。如果一个人只是为了赚钱而做某事,一般是不会做好的。D选项“她早年也从事过短跑项目”,文章中提到Maxime也从事过短跑,可是后来因为生了孩子就不再跑了。Maxime从事过短跑并不是她促使Shelly-Ann也从事短跑的原因。
68.
What
can
we
infer
from
Shelly-Ann’s
statement
underlined
in
Paragraph
5?
A.
She
was
highly
rewarded
for
her
efforts.
B.
She
was
eager
to
do
more
for
her
country.
C.
She
became
an
athletic
star
in
her
country.
D.
She
was
the
envy
of
the
whole
community.
【答案】B
【解析】推理判断题。根据第五段最后四句“我还有很多激情要为我的国家燃烧。”Shelly
说。她计划创办一个专门帮助无家可归的孩子的基金会并且她还想在水屋建造一个社区中心。她希望牙买加人能够放下武器。她想要世界成为女人同时也是男人的世界。由此可以推断“她迫切希望为她的国家做更多的事”。故B项正确。从积极的角度看,其余各选项“她因自己的努力而被重奖、她在她的国家成为了田径明星、她被整个社区的人所妒忌”比较容易排除。
69.
By
mentioning
Muhammad
Ali’s
words,
the
author
intends
to
tell
us
that
_______.
A.
players
should
be
highly
inspired
by
coaches
B.
great
athletes
need
to
concentrate
on
patience
C.
hard
work
is
necessary
in
one’s
achievements
D.
motivation
allows
great
athletes
to
be
on
the
top
【答案】D
【解析】推理判断题。“冠军并非产自体育场。造就冠军的是深藏于他们内心深处的某种东西——一种渴望,一种梦想,一种愿景。”根据拳王阿里的这段的名言,我们可以推断:来自内心的动机使伟大的运动员到达运动巅峰。故D项正确。从深刻含义的角度看,其余三项“运动员应该收到教练的激励、伟大的运动员需要耐心、在取得成功的过程中需要付出辛苦的劳动”比较容易排除。
70.
What
is
the
best
title
for
the
passage?
A.
The
Making
of
a
Great
Athlete
B.
The
Dream
for
Championship
C.
The
Key
to
High
Performance
D.
The
Power
of
Full
Responsibility
【答案】A
【解析】主旨大意题(标题题)。本文通过对Shelly-Ann成功经历的介绍以及最后引用拳王阿里的名言强调要想成为一个成功的运动员不只是需要强壮的体魄,还要有内驱力。主题与选项A符合。D项的干扰性最大,不过D项(全责的力量)是针对Maxime说的,而不是针对Shelly-Ann的,所以应该排除。

An?Extension?of?the?Human?Brain
Other
people
can
help
us
compensate
for
our
mental
and
emotional
deficiencies(欠缺),
much
as
a
wooden
leg
can
compensate
for
a
physical
deficiency.
To
be
exact,
other
people
can
extend
our
intelligence
and
help
us
understand
and
adjust
our
emotions.
When
another
person
helps
us
in
such
ways,
he
or
she
is
participating
in
what
I’ve
called
a
“social
prosthetic(义肢的)system.”
Such
systems
do
not
need
to
operate
face-to-face,
and
it’s
clear
to
me
that
the
Internet
is
expanding
the
range
of
my
own
social
prosthetic
systems.
It’s
already
a
big
bank
of
many
minds.
Even
in
its
current
state,
the
Internet
has
extended
my
memory
and
judgment.
Regarding
memory:
Once
I
look
up
something
on
the
Internet,
I
don’t
need
to
keep
all
the
details
for
future
use—I
know
where
to
find
that
information
again
and
can
quickly
and
easily
do
so.
More
generally,
the
Internet
functions
as
if
it
were
my
memory.
This
function
of
the
Internet
is
particularly
striking
when
I’m
writing;
I’m
no
longer
comfortable
writing
if
I’m
not
connected
to
the
Internet.
It’s
become
natural
to
check
facts
as
I
write,
taking
a
minute
or
two
to
dip
into
PubMed,
Wikipedia,
or
other
websites.
Regarding
judgment:
The
Internet
has
made
me
smarter
in
matters
small
and
large.
For
example,
when
I’m
writing
a
textbook,
it
has
become
second
nature
to
check
a
dozen
definitions
of
a
key
term,
which
helps
me
dig
into
the
core
and
understand
its
meaning.
But
more
than
that,
I
now
regularly
compare
my
views
with
those
of
many
others.
If
I
have
a
“new
idea”,
I
now
quickly
look
to
see
whether
somebody
else
has
already
thought
of
it,
or
something
similar—and
I
then
compare
what
I
think
with
what
others
have
thought.
This
certainly
makes
my
own
views
clearer.
Moreover,
I
can
find
out
whether
my
reactions
to
an
event
are
reasonable
enough
by
reading
about
those
of
others
on
the
Internet.
These
effects
of
the
Internet
have
become
even
more
striking
since
I’ve
begun
using
a
smartphone.
I
now
regularly
pull
out
my
phone
to
check
a
fact,
watch
a
video,
read
weibo.
Such
activities
fill
the
spaces
that
used
to
be
dead
time(such
as
waiting
for
somebody
to
arrive
for
a
lunch
meeting).
But
that’s
the
upside(好处).The
downside
is
that
in
those
dead
periods
I
often
would
let
my
thoughts
flow
and
sometimes
would
have
an
unexpected
insight
or
idea.
Those
opportunities
are
now
fewer
and
farther
between.

【语篇解读】本篇为说明文。现代社会中网络对我们的影响越来越大,可以弥补我们精神和情感上的缺陷。文章从网络对我们的记忆和判断方面的影响作出了详细说明,同时也阐述了智能手机对我们带来的不利之处。
71.【答案】Internet
【解析】信息查找题。根据题干中的“mental
and
emotional
deficiencies”定位到第一句话“Other
people
can
help
us
compensate
for
our
mental
and
emotional
deficiencies”;根据原文中的“Other
people”,你很有可能填“others”。但是稍作思考你会发现:the
others(其他所有的人)放在空格处明显不符合逻辑。再看跟71题并列的72题的主语用的是“It”,充分说明填“others”的不对。根据第一段后面的叙述,应该填Internet。网路可以帮助我们弥补精神和情感上的缺陷,就像木腿(假腿)可以弥补身体上的缺陷一样。
72.【答案】participates/joins
【解析】信息转换题。根据题干中的“extending
our
intelligence”定位到第一段第二句话“To
be
exact,
other
people
can
extend
our
intelligence
and
help
us
understand
and
adjust
our
emotions.确切的说,其他人可以延伸我们的智力,帮助我们理解和调整我们的情绪”。根据以上定位,还是无法具体的单词,需要结合72题的主语“It指网路”接着看定位句后面的内容,原来这是指人们通过互联网参与我们的日常活动,来达到“拓展我们的智力,帮助我们理解和调整我们的情绪”的目的。也就是说互联网已经参与(融入到)我们生活的方方面面。根据前面主语“It”判定空格处所要填的为动词的第三人称单数,故“participates/joins
in”符合句意。
73.【答案】keeping
【解析】信息转换题。根据右栏中的“memory”定位到第二段第一句话“Once
I
look
up
something
on
the
Internet,
I
don’t
need
to
keep
all
the
details
for
future
use—I
know
where
to
find
that
information
again
and
can
quickly
and
easily
do
so.一旦我在互联网上查找某类信息,我没有必要把将来要使用到的所有相关细节全部保存下来——我知道到哪儿能够再次快速、容易地查到此类信息”。将上述定位的句子的意思转换理解成:在网路上,我们可以快速、轻松地找到细节,并检查事实,而不必把它们记住。根据前面的介词“without”和后面的“them”判定空格处所要填的为动词的ing形式,故填keeping。本题也可以根据动词短语“keep...in
mind把……记在心里/记住”直接搞定答案。
74.【答案】all/different/various
【解析】信息转换题。根据题干中的“smarter”定位到第三段第一句“The
Internet
has
made
me
smarter
in
matters
small
and
large.互联网让我在大事小情上变得更有智慧”。将上述定位句中的“matters
small
and
large”转换成“all/different/various”的事情。对于“all/different/various
kinds
of”的搭配我们考生再熟悉不过啦。
75.【答案】heart/core
【解析】信息转换题。根据题干中的“dozen
definitions
of
a
key
term”定位到第四段第二句“For
example,
when
I’m
writing
a
textbook,
it
has
become
second
nature
to
check
a
dozen
definitions
of
a
key
term,
which
helps
me
dig
into
the
core
and
understand
its
meaning.例如,在我编写一本教科书的时候,针对某一关键术语琳琅满目的定义或解释进行核对已经成为了另外一种习惯做法,因为它能让我深入到问题的核心并理解它的含义”;将定位句转换理解成“互联网为我们找到问题的核心提供了许多关键术语的定义。”故填heart/core。“the
core/heart
of
the
matter”和原文中“dig
into
the
core”语义一致。
76.【答案】check
【解析】信息概括题。题干中的“our
claims”对应于第三段中的“my
own
views”,所以定位句是“This
certainly
makes
my
own
views
clearer这当然使我自己的观点更清楚了”;仅仅凭定位句是没有办法把所要填的词定下来,还需要看上文“If
I
have
a
‘new
idea’,
I
now
quickly
look
to
see
whether
somebody
else
has
already
thought
of
it,
or
something
similar—and
I
then
compare
what
I
think
with
what
others
have
thought.如果我有了新想法,我就会立即去查看是否有人早已想到了这个想法或者想到了其他类似的想法——并且我就会把我所想到的和其他人想到的加以比较”来确定。根据上文这儿应该填check(根据前面的“to”和后面的“our
claims”判定空格处所要填的为原形动词)。check与原文“look
to
see”语义一致。
77.【答案】judge
【解析】信息概括题。题干中的“actions”对应于第三段中的“my
reactions”,所以定位句是“Moreover,
I
can
find
out
whether
my
reactions
to
an
event
are
reasonable
enough
by
reading
about
those
of
others
on
the
Internet.此外,我还可以通过阅读互联网上其他人的评论来了解我对某个事件的反应是否足够合理”;根据定位句,可以归纳出这里所说的意思是:互联网使我们能够与其他许多人交换意见,以检查我们的主张,并判断我们的行为。故填judge(与76题是并列关系,故也判定空格处所要填的为原形动词)。
78.【答案】mixed/two
【解析】信息概括题。根据右栏所列出的两条,结合最后一段中的两个关键词“upside,
downside”可以直接填上“two”。文章在最后两段中既提到了智能手机的优点也提到了其缺点。所以这是智能手机的正反两方面内容,所以填“two”;估计很少有考生会想到填“mixed”。
79.【答案】convenient
【解析】信息概括题。根据题干直接定位到倒数第二段第二句“I
now
regularly
pull
out
my
phone
to
check
a
fact,
watch
a
video,
read
weibo.现在我会时不时地拿出手机,要么核验一下事实,要么看看视频,或者刷一下微博”。根据定位句可知:智能手机使得核实实际情况、观看视频片段、阅读微博变得更容易、更方便。根据前面“easy”故用形容词“convenient”。
80.【答案】reduce
【解析】信息转换题。根据题干直接定位到文章最后两句“The
downside
is
that
in
those
dead
periods
I
often
would
let
my
thoughts
flow
and
sometimes
would
have
an
unexpected
insight
or
idea.
Those
opportunities
are
now
fewer
and
farther
between.缺点是在那些过去认为无法利用的时间里,我会放任我的思绪自由驰骋,而正是在这驰骋的过程中,一些意想不到的灵感或想法会在脑海中灵光一现。但这种灵光一现的机会却随着网络的出现,离我们渐行渐远”。根据定位句可知:在过去那些时候,我总会有一些灵光一现的神来之念,但是现在这些时间都被智能手机占用了。无疑就减少了这些神来之念的可能性。所以表格中使用“reduce
the
possibility”。

【参考答案】
On-line
voting
becomes
increasingly
popular,
and
many
competitions
get
people
involved
in
it.
It
is
beneficial
to
some
people,
while
it
puts
others
into
a
dilemma
over
whether
to
vote
or
not.
In
my
opinion,
on-line
voting
is
an
inseparable
part
of
modern
life
and
should
be
welcomed,
since
it
is
no
more
than
a
way
to
participate
in
public
life.
It
makes
no
difference
from
ordinary
voting
events,
in
which
candidates
go
around
to
seek
supports.
In
addition,
the
Internet
makes
surveying
and
voting
easy
and
convenient,
regardless
of
time
and
space.
Furthermore,
voting
on
the
Internet
makes
instant
feedback
possible.
To
be
honest,
voters
sometimes
feel
annoyed,
not
because
they
hate
voting,
but
because
they
are
divided
between
emotion
and
fairness.
Things
will
turn
for
the
better
if
we
can
work
out
some
participation
rules
for
people
to
obey.
Therefore,
I
hold
a
positive
attitude
towards
on-
line
voting.
Possible
version
two:
Internet
voting
is
quite
popular
nowadays.
Many
people
are
somewhat
puzzled
at
the
negative
side
of
the
voting,
although
some
are
quite
happy
with
it,
and
active
in
doing
it.
In
my
opinion,
internet
voting
has
begun
to
show
its
negative
impacts
on
people
and
society.
Firstly,
people
may
feel
forced
when
asked
to
do
things
that
they
don’t
want
to.
Secondly,
voting
of
this
kind
does
not
depend
on
the
strong
points
of
the
competitors,
but
rather
on
how
many
social-networking
resources
they
have.
Thirdly,
the
voters
or
even
the
competitors
in
many
cases
are
possibly
taken
advantage
of
by
the
organizers
for
commercial
purposes.
In
short,
internet
voting,
to
some
extent,
is
unfair,
if
not
immoral,
and
cannot
be
trusted.
Therefore,
rules
should
be
worked
out
and
strictly
observed.
Everyone
in
our
society
should
help
those
in
need,
but
it
is
more
important
to
be
sincere
and
earnest.
