B
Before
birth,
babies
can
tell
the
difference
between
loud
sounds
and
voices.
They
can
even
distinguish
their
mother’s
voice
from
that
of
a
female
stranger.
But
when
it
comes
to
embryonic
learning(胎教),
birds
could
rule
the
roost.
As
recently
reported
in
The
Auk:
Ornithological
Advances,
some
mother
birds
may
teach
their
young
to
sing
even
before
they
hatch(孵化).
New-born
chicks
can
then
imitate
their
mom’s
call
within
a
few
days
of
entering
the
world.
This
educational
method
was
first
observed
in
2012
by
Sonia
Kieindorfer,
a
biologist
at
Flinders
University
in
South
Australia,
and
her
colleagues.
Female
Australian
superb
fairy
wrens
were
found
to
repeat
one
sound
over
and
over
again
while
hatching
their
errs,
when
the
errs
were
hatched,
the
baby
birds
made
the
similar
chirp
to
their
mothers—around
that
served
as
their
regular
“feed
me!”
call.
To
find
out
if
the
special
quality
was
more
widespread
in
birds,
the
researchers
sought
the
red-backed
fairy
wren,
another
species
of
Australian
songbird.
First
they
collected
sound
data
from
67
nests
in
four
sites
in
Queensland
before
and
after
hatching.
Then
they
identified
begging
calls
by
analyzing
the
order
and
number
of
notes.
A
computer
analysis
blindly
compared
calls
produced
by
mothers
and
chicks,
ranking
them
by
similarity.
It
turns
out
that
baby
red-backed
fairy
wrens
also
emerge
chirping
like
their
moms.
And
the
more
frequently
mothers
had
called
to
their
errs,
the
more
similar
were
the
babies’
begging
calls.
In
addition,
the
team
set
up
a
separate
experiment
that
suggested
that
the
baby
birds
that
most
closely
imitated
their
mom’s
voice
were
rewarded
with
the
most
food.
This
observation
hints
that
effective
embryonic
learning
could
signal
neurological(神经系统的)strengths
of
children
to
parents.
An
evolutionary
inference
can
then
be
drawn.
“As
a
parent,
do
you
invest
in
quality
children,
or
do
you
invest
in
children
that
are
in
need?”
Kleindorfer
asks.”
Our
results
suggest
that
they
might
be
going
for
quality.”
58.The
underlined
phrase
in
Paragraph
1
means
“_______”.
A.
be
the
worst
B.
be
the
best
C.
be
the
as
bad
D.
be
just
as
good
59.What
are
Kleindorfer’s
findings
based
on?
A.
Similarities
between
the
calls
of
moms
and
chicks.
B.
The
observation
of
fairy
wrens
across
Australia.
C.
The
data
collected
from
Queensland’s
locals.
D.
Controlled
experiments
on
wrens
and
other
birds.
60.Embryonic
learning
helps
mother
birds
to
identify
the
baby
birds
which
_______.
A.
can
receive
quality
signals
B.
are
in
need
of
training
C.
fit
the
environment
better
D.
make
the
loudest
call
C
A
new
commodity
brings
about
a
highly
profitable,
fast-growing
industry,
urging
antitrust(反垄断)regulators
to
step
in
to
check
those
who
control
its
flow.
A
century
ago,
the
resource
in
question
was
oil.
Now
similar
concerns
are
being
raised
by
the
giants(巨头)that
deal
in
data,
the
oil
of
the
digital
age.
The
most
valuable
firms
are
Google,
Amazon,
Facebook
and
Microsoft.
All
look
unstoppable.
Such
situations
have
led
to
calls
for
the
tech
giants
to
be
broken
up.
But
size
alone
is
not
a
crime.
The
giants’
success
has
benefited
consumers.
Few
want
to
live
without
search
engines
or
a
quick
delivery,
Far
from
charging
consumers
high
prices,
many
of
these
services
are
free(users
pay,
in
effect,
by
handing
over
yet
more
data).
And
the
appearance
of
new-born
giants
suggests
that
newcomers
can
make
waves,
too.
But
there
is
cause
for
concern.
The
internet
has
made
data
abundant,
all-present
and
far
more
valuable,
changing
the
nature
of
data
and
competition.
Google
initially
used
the
data
collected
from
users
to
target
advertising
better.
But
recently
it
has
discovered
that
data
can
be
turned
into
new
services:
translation
and
visual
recognition,
to
be
sold
to
other
companies.
Internet
companies’
control
of
data
gives
them
enormous
power.
So
they
have
a
“God’s
eye
view”
of
activities
in
their
own
markets
and
beyond.
This
nature
of
data
makes
the
antitrust
measures
of
the
past
less
useful.
Breaking
up
firms
like
Google
into
five
small
ones
would
not
stop
remaking
themselves:
in
time,
one
of
them
would
become
great
again.
A
rethink
is
required—and
as
a
new
approach
starts
to
become
apparent,
two
ideas
stand
out.
The
first
is
that
antitrust
authorities
need
to
move
form
the
industrial
age
into
the
21st
century.
When
considering
a
merger(兼并),
for
example,
they
have
traditionally
used
size
to
determine
when
to
step
in.
They
now
need
to
take
into
account
the
extent
of
firms’
data
assets(资产)when
assessing
the
impact
of
deals.
The
purchase
price
could
also
be
a
signal
that
an
established
company
is
buying
a
new-born
threat.
When
this
takes
place,
especially
when
a
new-born
company
has
no
revenue
to
speak
of,
the
regulators
should
raise
red
flags.
The?second?principle?is?to?loosen?the?control?that?providers?of?on-line?services?have?over?data?and?give?more?to
those?who?supply?them.

61.Why
is
there
a
call
to
break
up
giants?
A.
They
have
controlled
the
data
market.
B.
They
collect
enormous
private
data.
C.
They
no
longer
provide
free
services.
D.
They
dismissed
some
new-born
giants.
62.What
does
the
technological
innovation
in
Paragraph
3
indicate?
A.
Data
giants’
technology
is
very
expensive.
B.
Google’s
idea
is
popular
among
data
firms
C.
Data
can
strengthen
giants’
controlling
position.
D.
Data
can
be
turned
into
new
services
or
products
63.By
paying
attention
to
firms’
data
assets,
antitrust
regulators
could
_______.
A.
kill
a
new
threat
B.
avoid
the
size
trap
C.
favour
bigger
firms
D.
charge
higher
prices
64.What
is
the
purpose
of
loosening
the

D
Old
Problem,
New
Approaches
While
clean
energy
is
increasingly
used
in
our
daily
life,
global
warning
will
continue
for
some
decades
after
CO2
emissions(排放)peak.
So
even
if
emission
were
to
begin
decrease
today,
we
would
still
face
the
challenge
of
adapting
to
climate.
Here
I
will
stress
some
smarter
and
more
creative
examples
of
climate
adaptation.
When
it
comes
to
adaptation,
it
is
important
to
understand
that
climate
change
is
a
process.
We
are
therefore
not
talking
about
adapting
to
a
new
standard,
but
to
a
constantly
shifting
set
of
conditions.
This
is
why
in
part
at
least,
the
US
National
Climate
Assessment
says
that:
“there
is
no
‘one-size
fit
all’
adaptation.”
Nevertheless,
there
are
some
actions
that
offer
much
and
carry
little
risk
or
cost.
Around
the
world
people
are
adapting
in
surprising
ways,
especially
in
some
poor
countries,
Floods
have
some
more
damaging
in
Bangladesh
in
recent
decades.
Mohammed
Rezwan
saw
opportunity
where
others
saw
only
disaster.
His
not-for-profit
organization
runs
100
river
boats
that
server
as
floating
libraries,
schools,
and
health
clinics,
and
are
equipment
with
solar
panels
and
other
communication
facilities.
Rezwan
is
creating
floating
connectivity(连体)to
replace
flooded
roads
and
highways.
But
he
is
also
working
at
a
far
more
fundamental
level:
his
staff
people
how
to
make
floating
gardens
fish
ponds
prevent
starvation
during
the
wet
season.

even

actions
are
being
taken.
Chewang.
Norphel
lives
in
a
mountainous
region
in
India,
where
he
is
known
as
the
Ice
Man.
The
loss
of
glaciers(冰川)there
due
to
global
warming
represents
an
enormous
threat
to
agriculture.
Without
the
glaciers,
water
will
arrive
in
the
rivers
at
times
when
it
can
damage
crops.
Norphel’s
inspiration
come
from
seeing
the
waste
of
water
over
winter,
when
it
was
not
needed.
He
directed
the
wasted
water
into
shallow
basins
where
it
froze,
and
was
stored
until
the
spring.
His
fields
of
ice
supply
perfectly
timed
irrigation(灌溉)water.
Having
created
nine
such
ice
reserves.
Norphel
calculates
that
he
has
stored
about
200,
000m3
of
water.
Climate
change
is
a
continuing
process,
so
Norphel’s
ice
reserves
will
not
last
forever.
Warming
will
overtake
them.
But
he
is
providing
a
few
years
during
which
the
farmers
will,
perhaps,
be
able
to
find
other
means
of
adapting.
Increasing
Earth’s
reflectiveness
can
cool
the
planet.
In
southern
Spain
the
sudden
increase
of
greenhouses
(which
reflect
light
back
to
space)has
changed
the
warming
trend
locally,
and
actually
cooled
the
region.
While
Spain
as
a
whole
is
heating
up
quickly,
temperatures
near
the
greenhouses
have
decreased.
This
example
should
act
as
an
inspiration
for
all
cities.
By
painting
buildings
white,
cities
may
slow
down
the
warming
process.
In
Peru,
local
farmers
around
a
mountain
with
a
glacier
that
has
already
fallen
victim
to
climate
change
have
begun
painting
the
entire
mountain
peak
white
in
the
hope
that
the
added
reflectiveness
will
restore
the
life-giving
ice.
The
outcome
is
still
far
from
clear,
But
the
World
Bank
has
included
the
project
on
its
of
“100
ideas
to
save
the
planet”.
More
ordinary
forms
of
adaptation
are
happening
everywhere.
A
friend
of
mine
owns
an
area
of
land
in
western
Victoria.
Over
five
generations
the
land
has
been
too
wet
for
cropping.
But
during
the
past
decade
declining
rainfall
has
allows
him
to
plant
highly
profitable
crops.
Farmers
in
many
countries
are
also
adapting
like
this—either
by
growing
new
produce,
or
by
growing
the
same
things
differently.
This
is
common
sense,
But
some
suggestions
for
adapting
are
not.
When
the
polluting
industries
argue
that
we’ve
lost
the
battle
to
control
carbon
pollution
and
have
no
choice
but
to
adapt,
it’s
a
nonsense
designed
to
make
the
case
for
business
as
usual.
Human
beings
will
continue
to
adapt
to
the
changing
climate
in
both
ordinary
and
astonishing
ways.
But
the
most
sensible
form
of
adaptation
is
surely
to
adapt
our
energy
systems
to
emit
less
carbon
pollution.
After
all,
if
we
adapt
in
the
way,
we
may
avoid
the
need
to
change
in
so
many
others.

任务型阅读(共10小题；每小题1分，满分10分)请认真阅读下列短文，并根据所读内容在文章后表格中的空格里填入一个最恰当的单词。
注意：请将答案写在答题卡上相应题号的横线上。每个空格只填一个单词。
Population
Change
Why
is
the
world’s
population
growing?
The
answer
is
not
what
you
might
think.
The
reason
for
the
explosion
is
not
that
people
have
been
reproducing
like
rabbits,
but
that
people
have
stopped
dropping
dead
like
flies.
In
1900,
people
died
at
the
average
age
of
30.
By
2000
the
average
age
was
65.
But
while
increasing
health
was
a
typical
feature
of
the
20th
century,
declining
birth
rate
could
be
a
defining
one
of
the
21st.
Statistics
show
that
the
average
number
of
births
per
woman
has
fallen
from
4.9
in
the
early
1960s
to
2.5
nowadays.
Furthermore,
around
50%
of
the
world’s
population
live
in
regions
where
the
figure
is
now
below
the
replacement
level(i.e.2.1
births
per
woman)and
almost
all
developed
nations
are
experiencing
sub-replacement
birth
rate.
You
might
think
that
developing
nations
would
make
up
the
loss(especially
since
80%
of
the
world’s
people
now
live
in
such
nations),
but
you’d
be
wrong.
Declining
birth
rate
is
a
major
problem
in
many
developing
regions
too,
which
might
cause
catastrophic
global
shortages
of
work
force
within
a
few
decades.
A
great
decline
in
young
work
force
is
likely
to
occur
in
China,
for
instance.
What
does
it
imply?
First,
China
needs
to
undergo
rapid
economic
development
before
a
population
decline
hits
the
country.
Second,
if
other
factors
such
as
technology
remain
constant,
economic
growth
and
material
expectations
will
fall
well
below
recent
standards
and
this
could
invite
trouble.
Russia
is
another
country
with
population
problems
that
could
break
its
economic
promise.
Since
1992
the
number
of
people
dying
has
been
bigger
than
that
of
those
being
born
by
a
massive
50%.
Indeed
official
figures
suggest
the
country
has
shrunk
by
5%
since
1993
and
people
in
Russia
live
a
shorter
life
now
than
those
in
1961.Why
is
this
occurring?
Nobody
is
quite
sure,
but
poor
diet
an
above
all
long-time
alcoholism
have
much
to
do
with
it.
If
current
trends
don’t
bend,
Russia’s
population
will
be
about
the
size
of
Yemen’s
by
the
year
2050.
In
the
north
of
India,
the
population
is
booming
due
to
high
birth
rates,
but
in
the
south,
where
most
economic
development
is
taking
place,
birth
rate
is
falling
rapidly.
In
a
further
twist,
birth
rate
is
highest
in
poorly
educated
rural
areas
and
lowest
in
highly
educated
urban
areas.
In
total,
25%
of
India’s
working-age
population
has
no
education.
In
2030,
a
sixth
of
the
country’s
potential
work
force
could
be
totally
uneducated.
One
solution
is
obviously
to
import
foreign
workers
via
immigration.
As
for
the
USA,
it
is
almost
unique
among
developed
nations
in
having
a
population
that
is
expected
to
grow
by
20%
from
2010-2030.
Moreover,
the
USA
has
a
track
record
of
successfully
accepting
immigrants.
As
a
result
it’s
likely
to
see
a
rise
in
the
size
of
its
working-age
population
and
to
witness
strong
economic
growth
over
the
longer
term.

London.
But
our
phone’s
out
of
order.
M:
Don’t
worry,
Grandma.
I’ll
find
out

you
on
the
Internet.
W:
Thank
you!

W:
Excuse
me.
I
wonder
if
you
could
tell
me
how
to
find
a
place
to
have
my
shoes
mended.
I’m
new
in
town.
M:
Ah,
there
is
a
good
shop
not
far
from
here.
Go
straight
ahead
and
walk
about
three
blocks.
I
can’t
remember
the
name
of
the
shop,
but
you’ll
find
it.
It’s
near
the
police
station.
By
the
way,
you
know
about
the
town
guide?
It’s
a
thin
book
and
has
all
kinds
of
useful
information.
You’ll
find
one
in
any
bookstore.
W:
Thanks
a
lot!
You’ve
been
so
helpful.
Let’s
see.
Did
you
say
the
repair
shop
was
three
blocks
away
from
here?
M:
Exactly.
W:
Thanks
again.

M:
I’ve
been
here
many
times.
There
are
quite
a
lot
of
delicious
dishes
to
choose
from.
What
are
you
thinking
of
ordering?
W:
Well,
I
haven’t
decided
yet.
What
are
you
going
to
order?
M:
I
think
I’ll
have
the
roast
chicken.
They
really
make
it
well
here.
W:
I
had
roast
chicken
yesterday
when
I
ate
out
with
Shelly.
M:
Their
beef
steak
is
good,
too.
You
can
have
it
served
with
beans
and
mushrooms.
W:
But
I’m
not
that
hungry.
Is
the
fried
fish
or
the
seafood
salad
good?
M:
Never
had
them
before.
Maybe
if
you
get
the
steak,
we
could
share.
W:
That
sounds
like
a
good
idea.

W:
Hello,
Mr.
White.
Do
you
think
it’s
possible
for
us
to
talk
sometime
today?
M:
I’d
love
to,
Miss
Wilson,
but
I’ve
got
a
pretty
tight
schedule
today.
I’ve
got
to
finish
reading
the
yearly
financial
report
by
10.
Then
I
have
to
drive
to
the
airport
to
pick
up
an
advertiser
at
11.
After
that,
I’ll
have
a
meeting
with
him
over
lunch.
W:
Can
I
see
you
after
lunch?
M:
Well,
let
me
see…after
lunch,
I
have
to
attend
a
senior
staff
meeting,
which
may
last
about
two
hours.
Can
you
come
at
3?
We
can
talk
for
an
hour
before
I
meet
my
sales
team
at
4.
W:
I’m
afraid
an
hour
is
too
short.
What
about
tomorrow
morning?
M:
9
to
11,
then.
I’ll
wait
for
you
at
the
office.
W:
OK,
see
you
then.

W:
Hey,
Bill.
I
hear
they’re
going
to
send
you
to
Germany
for
the
new
project.
M:
Boy,
news
travels
fast
around
here!
I
only
got
the
orders
a
couple
of
hours
ago.
Rachel
doesn’t
even
know…
W:
Oh,
no?
So,
what
are
you
waiting
for?
When
do
you
plan
to
tell
her?
M:
Well,
she
is
at
work
at
the
moment.
She
doesn’t
finish
until
5.
I’ll
have
to
wait
until
tonight
now,
I
suppose.
W:
Well,
I
was
posted
there
before,
back
in
2008.
It’s
OK
—
a
bit
like
England,
really.
At
least
the
weather
is
similar,
and
the
people
aren’t
much
different.
The
only
thing
I
didn’t
like
is
the
food,
especially
the
sausages.
What
do
you
intend
to
do
about
the
family?
Are
you
going
to
take
them
with
you?
M:
Well,
I’d
like
to,
but
I
don’t
know
much
about
the
situation
at
the
moment…you
know,
about
schools
and
all
that.
But
I
hope
to
move
the
family
out
there
in
a
couple
of
months’
time.
I
don’t
think
I
want
to
spend
a
year
and
a
half
out
there
on
my
own...I
mean,
without
Rachel
and
the
kids.
I
mean,
I
don’t
see
that
much
of
them
now
as
it
is.
W:
Yeah.
Well,
that’s
the
way
it
is
normally
in
our
company,
I
suppose.
M:
Yeah.
Well,
we’ll
see.
Let
me
pay
for
the
coffee.
W:
No,
no.
I’ll
pay.

W:
Hello,
everyone.
Welcome
to
our
program.
I’m
Jenny
Jackson.
The
weather
here
in
Juárez
has
become
unbearable.
With
no
rains
for
over
a
year,
the
city
is
suffering
from
unusually
hot
weather.
Some
light
showers
have
been
forecast
since
last
month,
but
all
of
them
have
been
effective
in
surrounding
areas.
Summer
has
not
even
started
yet,
but
temperatures
have
reached
40
degrees
centigrade
in
the
past
three
days.
And
people
have
been
warned
not
to
go
out
of
their
homes
—
not
if
you
walk
on
foot,
at
least
—
between
11
in
the
morning
and
7
in
the
evening.
Little
kids
and
the
elderly
are
the
ones
who
have
suffered
the
most
from
this
extreme
heat
wave.
They
must
drink
water
all
the
time.
To
help
our
audience
have
a
better
understanding
of
this
extreme
weather,
we
have
invited
Prof.
Torres
from
University
of
Mexico

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.Many
Chinese
brands,
_______
their
reputations
over
centuries,
are
facing
new
challenges
from
the
modern
market.
A.
having
developed
B.
being
developed
C.
developed
D.
developing
【答案】A
【解析】考查非谓语动词。brands是逻辑主语和develop是主谓关系，所以用现在分词，表示伴随状况；再根据“over
centuries”可知，应该使用现在分词的完成式。句意：数百年来，已经建立了自己信誉的许多中国品牌，现在正面临着来自现代市场的新挑战。
22._______
not
for
the
support
of
the
teachers,
the
student
could
not
overcome
her
difficulty.
A.
It
were
B.
Were
it
C.
It
was
D.
Was
it
【答案】B
【解析】考查虚拟语气和倒装。虚拟语气中，be动词统一用were；虚拟语气的省略形式主要是把if省略，同时把were/should/had提前构成倒装句，即Were
/Should/
Had
I...。句意：要不是老师们的支持，该生是无法克服她自己的困难的。
23.Located
_______
the
Belt
meets
the
Road,
Jiangsu
will
contribute
more
to
the
Belt
and
Road
construction.
A.
why
B.
when
C.
which
D.
where
【答案】D
【解析】考查状语从句。be
located
in+地点名词，位于/坐落某地，where引导的地点状语从句在此相当于in
some
place。句意：位于丝绸之路交汇处的江苏将会对“一带一路”的建设做出更大的贡献。
24.The
publication
of
Great
Expectations,
which
_______
both
widely
reviewed
and
highly
praised,
strengthened
Dickens’
status
as
a
leading
novelist.
A.
is
B.
are
C.
was
D.
were
【答案】C
【解析】考查主谓一致。先行词是Great
Expectations，“Great
Expectations”是书名，看做单数，所以定语从句的谓语也要使用单数形式；根据“strengthened”可知，说的是过去，故选C。句意：《远大前程》的出版获得了广泛的好评，这坐实了狄更斯作为前沿小说家的地位。
25.Working
with
the
medical
team
in
Africa
has
_______
the
best
in
her
as
a
doctor.
A.
held
out
B.
brought
out
C.
picked
out
D.
given
out
【答案】B
【解析】考查动词短语的辨析。hold
out坚持；提供机会；伸出手；bring
out使显现，阐明，出版；pick
out使容易看见，找出精心挑选，认出来；give
out用完，停止运行，分发，发出，公布。句意：在非洲同医疗队一起工作已经使她表现出了作为医生最好的一面。这里取“使显现”之意，故选B。
26.We
choose
this
hotel
because
the
price
for
a
night
here
is
down
to
$20,
half
of
_______
it
used
to
charge.
A.
that
B.
which
C.
what
D.
how
【答案】C
【解析】考查名词从句。
“half
of
_______
it
used
to
charge”是$20的同位语，即原来价格的一半是现在的$20；另外，of后跟名词或名词短语构成介宾短语，所以，这里是宾语从句；宾语从句中的charge后面缺少宾语，所以用what来引导宾语从句，并充当宾语从句中的宾语，四个选项中只有“what”具有这种双重功能。句意：我们选择这家宾馆是因为住一晚上的价格降到了20美元，这是该宾馆过去要价的一半。
27.He
hurried
home,
never
once
looking
back
to
see
if
he
_______
.
A.
was
being
followed
B.
was
following
C.
had
been
followed
D.
followed
【答案】A
【解析】考查动词的时态和语态。he和follow是动宾关系，即他被别人跟踪，排除BD选项；根据句意“在匆忙赶回家的路上，他从未回头看是否被跟踪”，用过去进行时最合适。句意：他匆匆忙忙往家赶，就是不回头看一看是否有人跟踪自己。
28.In
1963
the
UN

World
Food

one
of
_______
purposes
is
to
relieve
worldwide
starvation.
A.
which
B.
it’s
C.
whose
D.
whom
【答案】C
【解析】考查定语从句。先行词是“the
World
Food
Programme”，“世界粮食项目”的目的之一是……，whose在定语从句中作定语，这里修饰purposes。句意：1963年联合国建立了世界粮食计划署，其目的之一就是为了缓解世界范围内的饥饿问题。
29.Only

after
Steve
Jobs’
death,
smart
–phones
defeated
_______
PCs
in
sales.
A.
controversial
B.
contradictory
C.
confidential
D.
conventional
【答案】D
【解析】考查形容词的辨析。controversial有争议的；contradictory对立的，相互矛盾的；confidential机密的，秘密的；conventional传统的，智能手机在销量上击败了传统的个人电脑，故选D。句意：仅在乔布斯逝世的五年，智能手机在销量上击败了传统的个人电脑。

C.

qualify
D.

qualifying
【答案】C
【解析】考查动词的时态。根据语境可知，题干中所陈述的是事实。可以这样理解，学术背景是既定的事实，用一般现在时。句意：他被告知由于他的学术背景，他没有资格获得奖学金。
32.Determining

an
essential

the

found
it
___42___
to
pick
out
tunes.
With
a
sinking
feeling,
he
realized
that
he
actually
___43___
doing
it.

tried

hide
his
___44___
pleasure
from
the
music

who
had

【语篇解读】本文是记叙文。文章叙述了主人公Gabriel从不喜欢音乐到喜欢音乐的转变过程。文章围绕Gabriel对音乐的态度的变化展开，从不喜欢学音乐到发现自己的兴趣所在，其中暗含了“不怕吃苦，不在意他人的评价”这样的道理。
36.A.
travelling
B.
marching
C.
pacing
D.
struggling
【答案】D
【解析】联系下文“with
their
heavy
instrument
cases”可知，每天上学的时候，Gabriel常常用同情的目光看着背着沉重乐器的同学们艰难地穿梭于校园中，struggle(walk
with
great
difficulty)艰难地行走，符合语境。travel旅行；march前进，行军，游行；pace踱步，来回走。
37.A.
rising
up
B.
coming
up
C.
driving
up
D.
turning
up
【答案】D
【解析】联系下文“
___37___
at
school
for
practice
hours
___38___
anyone
else”可知，学习音乐的同学需要比不学音乐的早到学校几个小时(是为了练习弹奏乐器)。turn
up(=show
up)在此意为“出现”，符合语境。rise
up上升，耸立，起来造反，起义；come
up上来，发生，提到；drive
up驱车来到，使……上升。
38.A.
before
B.
after
C.
until
D.
since
【答案】A
【解析】联系下文作者说“自己讨厌很早去学校”可知，学习音乐的学生要比其他学生到校时间之前(before)到校。故A正确。
39.A.
betray
B.
accept
C.
avoid
D.
appreciate
【答案】C
【解析】上文已经说了总是同情地看着背着沉重乐器的同学们艰难地穿梭于校园中，再联系下文“as
he
hated
getting
to
school
extra
early”可知，Gabriel讨厌过早到校，因此他对自己发誓“不学”音乐，即回避(avoid避免，避开)音乐，故C正确。
40.A.
Therefore
B.
However
C.
Thus
D.
Moreover
【答案】B
【解析】上文即第一段描述作者很讨厌音乐，而本段后边描述他开始转变对音乐的态度并渐渐喜欢上了音乐，可知上下文在逻辑上存在转折关系，However(然而)故选B。
41.A.
part
B.
nature
C.
basis
D.
spirit
【答案】A
【解析】空格所在位置为定语从句：that
was
___41___
of
his
school’s
standard
curriculum，修饰music
class，意思是说：音乐课是学校的课程标准的一部分(part)，故选A。nature自然，天性；basis基础；spirit精神，心灵。
42.A.
complicate
B.
safe
C.
confusing
D.
easy
【答案】D
【解析】联系上文“he
was
playing
idly(随意地)on
the
piano他随意地弹了弹钢琴”和下文“pick
out
tunes分辨出曲调”，再联系下文“actually...
tried
to
hide...
pleasure”等词和词组可以看出，Gabriel在音乐中找到了乐趣，并试图隐藏这份愉悦，由此可知，本空的意思是“发现很容易(easy)辨别出曲调”与上文的“However”相呼应，故选D项。complicate复杂的；safe安全的；confusing混乱的，混淆的，令人困惑的，迷惑不解的。
43.A.
missed
B.
disliked
C.
enjoyed
D.
denied
【答案】C
【解析】联系下文“He
tried
to
hide
his
___44___
pleasure
from
the
music
teacher他尽力隐藏自己的_______喜悦之情”，再联系上文中的“actually实际上”可知，Gabriel对音乐的看法有了变化，他实际上是喜欢(enjoyed)音乐的，也与上文的“However”相呼应。miss错过；dislike不喜欢；deny否认。
44.A.
transparent
B.
obvious
C.
false
D.
similar
【答案】B
【解析】根据本空所在句子“He
tried
to
hide
his
___44___
pleasure
from
the
music
teacher他尽力隐藏自己的_______喜悦之情”，由“尽力”一词可以推断这种喜悦之情是很明显被人发现的，故选B。Gabriel不想让音乐老师看到自己表露出来的很明显的(obvious)喜悦之情。transparent透明的，侧重指(谎言、借口等的)易看穿的；false错误的；similar相似的。
45.A.
run
B.
jogged
C.
jumped
D.
wandered
【答案】D
【解析】听到Gabriel弹奏乐器的声音，音乐老师就走过来聆听。wander
over走过来，跑过来。run跑步造；jog慢跑；jump跳。
46.A.
because
B.
but
C.
though
D.
so
【答案】A
【解析】上文“He
might
not
have
done
this
particularly
well”似乎跟下文的“___46___the
teacher
told
Gabriel
that
he
had
a
good
___47___,
_______老师告诉他他有好的______”似乎构成了逻辑上的转折关系，所以不少考生认为选B理所当然。其实不然，对上文“He
might
not
have
done
this
particularly
well”作深度分析可知：句中的“this”指代的是上文中“He
tried
to
hide
his
obvious
pleasure
from
the
music
teacher”这件事，所以“He
might
not
have
done
this
particularly
well”的言下之意是：他本来是可以把自己的喜悦之情隐藏好的，但是没有做到。显然填but就说不通了。从下文老师告诉他的话就说明老师已经发现了他的喜悦之情。所以上下文是因果关系，下文是上文的“原因”，故选A。
47.A.
ear
B.
taste
C.
heart
D.
voice
【答案】A
【解析】结合上文“he
was
playing
idly(随意地)on
the
piano
and
found
it
easy
to
pick
out
tunes.他随意地在弹了弹钢琴就发现很容易辨别出曲调”说明他听觉非常敏锐，有天赋(have
a
good
ear)；本题可能误选B项，但是have
a
good
taste是“很有品位，有很好的鉴赏能力”，Gabriel没有经过专业的训练，不能说他有很好的音乐鉴赏能力，所以taste(鉴赏，欣赏)不符合语境。故选A。
48.A.
occurred
to
B.
took
to
C.
appealed
to
D.
held
to
【答案】C
【解析】occur
to
sb.某人突然想起；take
to开始喜欢；appeal
to有吸引力，引起兴趣；hold
to抓住。any
of
the
instruments
appealed
to
him=he
took
to
any
of
the
instruments。老师让Gabriel找一件能够吸引自己的乐器即自己喜欢的乐器。46-48题连贯起来的意思是：他本来是可以把自己的喜悦之情隐藏好的，但是没有做到，因为老师告诉他说他的听觉非常敏锐，并建议他去乐器储藏室看看有没有他喜欢的乐器。
49.A.
change
B.
chance
C.
mission
D.
function
【答案】B
【解析】联系上文可知Gabriel选中了一款乐器即大提琴，所以“他决定给大提琴一次机会(chance)，即尝试拉拉大提琴。change变化；mission使命；function功能。
50.A.
seriously
B.
proudly
C.
casually
D.
naturally
【答案】C
【解析】根据下文“But
he
quickly
found
that
he
loved
playing
this
instrument但是他很快发现他喜欢拉大提琴”可知：当他开始拉大提琴时，并没有认真对待，而是“非常随便(casually)地拉了一下”。seriously认真地，严肃地；proudly自豪地，骄傲地；naturally自然地。
51.A.
committed
B.
used
C.
limited
D.
admitted
【答案】A
【解析】根据上文“But
he
quickly
found
that
he
loved
playing
this
instrument但是他很快发现他喜欢拉大提琴”和下文“so
that
within
a
couple
of
months
he
was
playing
reasonably
well以便几个月之内就可以把大提琴拉得相当好”是他“致力于练习拉大提琴”的两大动力。be
committed
to
sth./doing
sth.致力于。
52.A.
proved
B.
showed
C.
stressed
D.
meant
【答案】D
【解析】本段与第一段呼应。作者不喜欢音乐的原因是不想早早到校去练习，且背着沉重乐器的同学们艰难地穿梭于校园中，而现在既然选择了音乐，那么这当然就意味(meant)他一大早就要赶到。prove证明是；show表明，说明，展示；stress强调，给……加压力。
53.A.
pushing
B.
dragging
C.
lifting
D.
rushing
【答案】B
【解析】结合下文所跟的宾语“his
heavy
instrument
case他的装有乐器的沉重的箱子”可知“drag吃力地拖、拉”，符合语境。push推，推动；lift提升，举起，抬起；rush急速行进，仓促完成。
54.A.
admiring
B.
pitying
C.
annoying
D.
teasing
【答案】B
【解析】联系第一段“Gabriel
would
look
pityingly
at
music
students.
Gabriel常常用同情的目光看着学音乐的学生。”可知现在该轮到他面对“不学音乐的学生的同情的(pitying)目光”了。admiring赞赏的，钦佩的；annoying恼人的，讨厌的；teasing戏弄的，逗趣的。
55.A.
over
B.
aside
C.
behind
D.
out
【答案】C
【解析】leave
aside把……搁置一边，不考虑；leave
sb./sth.
behind把……抛在后面/脑后，超过；leave
out遗漏，不提及，省略，忽略。本题是选C项还是D项，考生比较纠结。其实leave
out
作“忽略”的意思讲时，一般是指无意识的，而leave
behind作“抛弃”的意思讲时，一般带有主观色彩。这里应该表示他是有意的不予理睬，早已置之不理了那种状态。所以应该选C项。最后一段的大意是：这当然就意味着他一大早就要赶到学校，迎着那些被他早已抛在脑后的非音乐生的同情目光，拖着沉重的乐器穿过校园。
第三部分：阅读理解(共15小题；每小题2分，满分30分)
请阅读下列短文，从短文后各题所给的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。
A
【语篇解读】本文体裁为应用文。文章介绍了一本关于历史的书籍，这本书记录了不同时代、世界各地的历史事件和史实。作者提到了很多书里面的内容来向读者推荐本书。
56.What?is?CHRONOLOGICA?according?to?the?next?
A.
A?biography.?
B.
A?travel?guide.
C.
A?history?book.??
D.
A?science?fiction.
【答案】C
【解析】细节理解题。第四段”this
book
also
gives
an
account
of
the
lives
of
lesser-known
individuals”告诉我们是一本书。再根据”CHRONOLOGICA
is
an
informative
and
entertaining
tour
into
history,
...”可知，CHRONOLOGICA是一本有关历史的书籍。其余三项“传记、旅游指南、科幻小说”比较容易排除。
57.How?does?the?writer?recommend?CHRONOLOGICA?to?readers?
A.
By?giving?details?of?its?collection.
B.
By?introducing?some?of?its?contents.?
C.
By?telling?stories?at?the?beginning.?
D.
By?comparing?it?with?other?books.
【答案】B
【解析】推理判断(写作手法)题。题干意思是“作者是如何将CHRONOLOGICA推荐给读者的？”，即作者是如何安排行文结构和内容的。文章开篇通过提问的形式将三个重要的历史事件呈现给读者，但是并没有讲具体的事件，故排除C选项；接着讲述这本书所涉及内容的时间跨度：从古罗马的建立到网络的产生，包括许多国王，女王的故事等。再接着提到通过本书的旅程可以了解为什么古罗马帝王并不像听起来的那么好等历史问题，但是没有细节说明到底是为什么；再接着提到这本书既介绍了托马斯·爱迪生和亚历山大一世等名人轶事，也涉及到一些不那么知名的人物的事件；最后介绍这本书的受众，老少皆宜，并能启发历史爱好者新的东西。故通篇主要介绍了这本书的大体内容，并没有给出具体的细节，所以排除A选项。文章没有提及除“CHRONOLOGICA”之外的其它书籍，因此使用的不是对比手法。排除D选项，正确答案为B。
B
Before
birth,
babies
can
tell
the
difference
between
loud
sounds
and
voices.
They
can
even
distinguish
their
mother’s
voice
from
that
of
a
female
stranger.
But
when
it
comes
to
embryonic
learning(胎教),
birds
could
rule
the
roost.
As
recently
reported
in
The
Auk:
Ornithological
Advances,
some
mother
birds
may
teach
their
young
to
sing
even
before
they
hatch(孵化).
New-born
chicks
can
then
imitate
their
mom’s
call
within
a
few
days
of
entering
the
world.
This
educational
method
was
first
observed
in
2012
by
Sonia
Kieindorfer,
a
biologist
at
Flinders
University
in
South
Australia,
and
her
colleagues.
Female
Australian
superb
fairy
wrens
were
found
to
repeat
one
sound
over
and
over
again
while
hatching
their
errs,
when
the
errs
were
hatched,
the
baby
birds
made
the
similar
chirp
to
their
mothers—around
that
served
as
their
regular
“feed
me!”
call.
To
find
out
if
the
special
quality
was
more
widespread
in
birds,
the
researchers
sought
the
red-backed
fairy
wren,
another
species
of
Australian
songbird.
First
they
collected
sound
data
from
67
nests
in
four
sites
in
Queensland
before
and
after
hatching.
Then
they
identified
begging
calls
by
analyzing
the
order
and
number
of
notes.
A
computer
analysis
blindly
compared
calls
produced
by
mothers
and
chicks,
ranking
them
by
similarity.
It
turns
out
that
baby
red-backed
fairy
wrens
also
emerge
chirping
like
their
moms.
And
the
more
frequently
mothers
had
called
to
their
errs,
the
more
similar
were
the
babies’
begging
calls.
In
addition,
the
team
set
up
a
separate
experiment
that
suggested
that
the
baby
birds
that
most
closely
imitated
their
mom’s
voice
were
rewarded
with
the
most
food.
This
observation
hints
that
effective
embryonic
learning
could
signal
neurological(神经系统的)strengths
of
children
to
parents.
An
evolutionary
inference
can
then
be
drawn.
“As
a
parent,
do
you
invest
in
quality
children,
or
do
you
invest
in
children
that
are
in
need?”
Kleindorfer
asks.”
Our
results
suggest
that
they
might
be
going
for
quality.”
【语篇解读】本文体裁为说明文。浏览全文，我们知道：文章介绍了鸟类在“胎教”方面超凡的本领。通过实验发现鸟儿在孵化时不停地鸣叫是为了教会以后出生的雏鸟鸣叫的本领，从而挑选出能够适应环境的雏鸟。
58.The
underlined
phrase
in
Paragraph
1
means
“_______”.
A.
be
the
worst
B.
be
the
best
C.
be
the
as
bad
D.
be
just
as
good
【答案】B
【解析】词义猜测题。文章开头就说：婴儿出生前就能辨别响亮的声音和嗓音，甚至能够区分妈妈的声音和其他女人的声音。But一词来了个转折，转而谈到胎教，鸟儿能”rule
the
roost”；根据第二段”when
the
errs
were
hatched,
the
baby
birds
made
the
similar
chirp
to
their
mothers”可知，鸟儿在孵化小鸟时候的鸣叫对未出生的小鸟有很大影响，它们被孵化后也能发出类似的声音，说明鸟儿很擅长胎教。说明鸟儿(而非人)在胎教方面的能力是最好的。根据对“rule
the
roost(统治鸟窝)”的字面理解，也可以悟出是be
the
best的意思。
59.What
are
Kleindorfer’s
findings
based
on?
A.
Similarities
between
the
calls
of
moms
and
chicks.
B.
The
observation
of
fairy
wrens
across
Australia.
C.
The
data
collected
from
Queensland’s
locals.
D.
Controlled
experiments
on
wrens
and
other
birds.
【答案】A
【解析】细节理解题。根据题干Kleindorfer’s
findings
based
on可知，本题所问的是这项研究成果建立的基础，由此把答案定位在节选段第二段。该段说，为了了解这种特点是不是更多的鸟儿都具备(if
the
special
quality
was
more
widespread
in
birds)，研究人员选定了澳大利亚另外一种会唱歌的鸟(another
species
of
Australian
songbird)——鹪鹩
(fairy
wren)，从位于昆士兰四个地点的67个鸟巢里收集鸟叫的声音资料(collected
sound
data
from
67
nests
in
four
sites
in
Queensland)，然后再来分辨这些鸟叫声(identified
begging
calls)，根据鸟妈妈与幼鸟声音的相似度来进行排列(ranking
them
by
similarity)。节选段第三段首句(It
turns
out
that
...)显示：鹪鹩幼鸟的叫声与鸟妈妈的声音也很相似。由此判断，他的发现基于A选项(鸟妈妈与幼鸟叫声的相似之处)。B选项颠倒是非，文章说Kleindorfer收集鸟儿的声音资料(collected
sound
data)，而不是“观察”(observation)鸟儿，文章说收集的范围是昆士兰的4个地点(four
sites
in
Queensland)，而不是“整个澳大利亚”(across
Australia)；C选项曲解文意，该项的复数名词locals表示“当地人”，该项虽提到准确信息“昆士兰”，但是后面的locals不对，研究人员不是从当地人那里收集数据；D选项无中生有，该项说用这些鸟儿和其他鸟儿来做实验，而且还是可控制的实验(Controlled
experiments)，这在文中未提及。
60.Embryonic
learning
helps
mother
birds
to
identify
the
baby
birds
which
_______.
A.
can
receive
quality
signals
B.
are
in
need
of
training
C.
fit
the
environment
better
D.
make
the
loudest
call
【答案】C
【解析】推理判断题。根据倒数第二段“此外，研究小组还做了一个额外的实验，实验结果表明，最能模仿母亲声音的幼鸟会得到最多的食物。”和最后一段中：由此可以得出一个进化推论：“作为一个家长，你会投资优质的孩子，还是投资那些需要帮助的孩子？”克雷恩多佛问，“我们的研究结果表明，他们可能会追求质量。”可以推断鸟妈妈通过胎教来确定质量优良的雏鸟，即最会模仿她们声音，质量优良、无需帮助就能更好地适应环境的幼鸟。
C
A
new
commodity
brings
about
a
highly
profitable,
fast-growing
industry,
urging
antitrust(反垄断)regulators
to
step
in
to
check
those
who
control
its
flow.
A
century
ago,
the
resource
in
question
was
oil.
Now
similar
concerns
are
being
raised
by
the
giants(巨头)that
deal
in
data,
the
oil
of
the
digital
age.
The
most
valuable
firms
are
Google,
Amazon,
Facebook
and
Microsoft.
All
look
unstoppable.
Such
situations
have
led
to
calls
for
the
tech
giants
to
be
broken
up.
But
size
alone
is
not
a
crime.
The
giants’
success
has
benefited
consumers.
Few
want
to
live
without
search
engines
or
a
quick
delivery,
Far
from
charging
consumers
high
prices,
many
of
these
services
are
free(users
pay,
in
effect,
by
handing
over
yet
more
data).
And
the
appearance
of
new-born
giants
suggests
that
newcomers
can
make
waves,
too.
But
there
is
cause
for
concern.
The
internet
has
made
data
abundant,
all-present
and
far
more
valuable,
changing
the
nature
of
data
and
competition.
Google
initially
used
the
data
collected
from
users
to
target
advertising
better.
But
recently
it
has
discovered
that
data
can
be
turned
into
new
services:
translation
and
visual
recognition,
to
be
sold
to
other
companies.
Internet
companies’
control
of
data
gives
them
enormous
power.
So
they
have
a
“God’s
eye
view”
of
activities
in
their
own
markets
and
beyond.
This
nature
of
data
makes
the
antitrust
measures
of
the
past
less
useful.
Breaking
up
firms
like
Google
into
five
small
ones
would
not
stop
remaking
themselves:
in
time,
one
of
them
would
become
great
again.
A
rethink
is
required—and
as
a
new
approach
starts
to
become
apparent,
two
ideas
stand
out.
The
first
is
that
antitrust
authorities
need
to
move
form
the
industrial
age
into
the
21st
century.
When
considering
a
merger(兼并),
for
example,
they
have
traditionally
used
size
to
determine
when
to
step
in.
They
now
need
to
take
into
account
the
extent
of
firms’
data
assets(资产)when
assessing
the
impact
of
deals.
The
purchase
price
could
also
be
a
signal
that
an
established
company
is
buying
a
new-born
threat.
When
this
takes
place,
especially
when
a
new-born
company
has
no
revenue
to
speak
of,
the
regulators
should
raise
red
flags.

【语篇解读】根据文章各段的第一句“一种新的商品会带来一个高利润、快速增长的行业，并敦促反垄断监管机构介入检查那些控制商品流向的企业；这种情况导致了对拆散科技巨头的诉求，但规模本身不是罪；但这也有引起关注的原因；数据的这种性质使过去的反垄断措施少有用处；首先，反垄断当局需要从工业时代适应到二十一世纪；第二个原则是放松在线服务提供者对数据的控制，并向提供它们的人给予更多的控制；重新启动反垄断信息时代是不容易的”可以判断本篇体裁为议论文。文章主要讨论了对“信息寡头”的反思与对策。最后特别指出：重新启动反垄断信息时代是不容易的。但政府如果不希望由几个巨头控制经济数据，则必须尽快采取行动。
61.Why
is
there
a
call
to
break
up
giants?
A.
They
have
controlled
the
data
market.
B.
They
collect
enormous
private
data.
C.
They
no
longer
provide
free
services.
D.
They
dismissed
some
new-born
giants.
【答案】A
【解析】推理判断题。根据题干中的关键词“call”定位到第二段“Such
situations
have
led
to
calls
for
the
tech
giants
to
be
broken
up.
But
size
alone
is
not
a
crime.这种情况导致了对拆散科技巨头的诉求，但规模本身不是罪”，由Such
situations找到第一段第一句“urging
antitrust(反垄断)regulators
to
step
in
to
check
those
who
control
its
flow.”可知，敦促反垄断管理者介入来调查控制数据市场的巨头。因为这些巨头控制了数据市场，人们才因此呼吁拆散那些巨头公司，故答案为A。B选项中的“private
data”，文中并没有提及到私人数据，容易误选该选项；C选项“不再提供免费服务”，文章中并没有提及；D选项“他们解散了一些新生的巨头公司”也不符合文章的意思。
62.What
does
the

indicate?
A.
Data

B.
Google’s

firms
C.
Data
can
strengthen
giants’
controlling
position.
D.
Data
can
be
turned

or

【答案】C
【解析】推理判断题。根据题干快速定位到第三段最后两句“Internet
companies’
control
of
data
gives
them
enormous
power.
So
they
have
a
“God’s
eye
view”
of
activities
in
their
own
markets
and
beyond.网络公司对于数据的控制给了他们巨大的权利，它们甚至可以用上帝的眼光来看待它们的市场活动”可知互联网公司对数据的掌控使得它们拥有了巨大的权力，说明数据会加强巨头的统治地位。故C选项正确。A选项“数据巨头的技术非常昂贵”，文章显然没有涉及到(无中生有)；B选项“谷歌的想法在数据公司中很受欢迎”，文章显然也没有涉及到(无中生有)；D选项“数据可以转换成新的服务和产品”or前面的是文中的原话，而or后面的则不是(正误参半)，同时也不是“indicate暗示”来的。
63.By
paying
attention
to

could
_______.
A.
kill
a
new
threat
B.
avoid
the
size
trap
C.
favour
bigger

D.
charge
higher

【答案】B
【解析】推理判断题。根据题干所问“通过关注公司的数据资产，反垄断监管机构能够做些什么？”定位到倒数第三段“The

new
threat”在文中指的是“a
new-born
company”，由第五段最后的叙述可知是新兴公司被大公司吞并，而不是反垄断监管机构来吞并新兴公司。其余三个选项“消除一个威胁(指：收购价格也可能是一个信号，表明一家老牌公司正在收购一个新的威胁)、支持帮助更大的公司、要价更高”比较容易排除。
64.What
is
the
purpose
of

【答案】D
【解析】推理判断题。根据题干所提问题“弱化巨头对数据的控制目的何在？”定位到倒数第二段
“公司可能被迫向消费者提供他们持有的信息和他们所赚的钱。政府可以在用户同意的情况下，命令共享某些类型的数据”，再结合最后一段“但政府如果不希望由几个巨头控制经济数据，则必须尽快采取行动”可知，反垄断部门应该采取行动，使几大因特网巨头放松对数据的控制，使新生的小公司得到更多的发展机会，故选D项。其余三项“大公司可以缓解数据安全压力、政府可以减轻财政压力、消费者可以更好地保护他们的隐私”都不是“弱化巨头对数据的控制目的”。

Approaches
While
clean
energy
is
increasingly
used
in
our
daily
life,
global
warning
will
continue
for
some
decades
after
CO2
emissions(排放)peak.
So
even
if
emission
were
to
begin
decrease
today,
we
would
still
face
the
challenge
of
adapting
to
climate.
Here
I
will
stress
some
smarter
and
more
creative
examples
of
climate
adaptation.
When
it
comes
to
adaptation,
it
is
important
to
understand
that
climate
change
is
a
process.
We
are
therefore
not
talking
about
adapting
to
a
new
standard,
but
to
a
constantly
shifting
set
of
conditions.
This
is
why
in
part
at
least,
the
US
National
Climate
Assessment
says
that:
“there
is
no
‘one-size
fit
all’
adaptation.”
Nevertheless,
there
are
some
actions
that
offer
much
and
carry
little
risk
or
cost.
Around
the
world
people
are
adapting
in
surprising
ways,
especially
in
some
poor
countries,
Floods
have
some
more

in
Bangladesh
in
recent
decades.
Mohammed

adapting
in
surprising
ways,
especially
in
some
poor
countries,
Floods
have
become
more
damaging
in
Bangladesh
in
recent
decades.
Mohammed
Rezwan
saw
opportunity
where
others
saw
only
disaster.
His
not-for-profit
organization
runs
100
river
boats
that
serve
as
floating
libraries,
schools,
and
health
clinics,
and
are
equipped
with
solar
panels
and
other
communicating
facilities.
Rezwan
is
creating
floating
connectivity(连接)
to
replace
flooded
roads
and
highways.
But
he
is
also
working
at
a
far
more
fundamental
level:
his
staff
show
people
how
to
make
floating
gardens
and
fish
ponds
to
prevent
starvation
during
the
wet
season.
Elsewhere
in
Asia
even
more
astonishing
actions
are
being
taken.
Chewang.
Norphel
lives
in
a
mountainous
region
in
India,
where
he
is
known
as
the
Ice
Man.
The
loss
of
glaciers(冰川)there
due
to
global
warming
represents
an
enormous
threat
to
agriculture.
Without
the
glaciers,
water
will
arrive
in
the
rivers
at
times
when
it
can
damage
crops.
Norphel’s
inspiration
come
from
seeing
the
waste
of
water
over
winter,
when
it
was
not
needed.
He
directed
the
wasted
water
into
shallow
basins
where
it
froze,
and
was
stored
until
the
spring.
His
fields
of
ice
supply
perfectly
timed
irrigation(灌溉)water.
Having
created
nine
such
ice
reserves.
Norphel
calculates
that
he
has
stored
about
200,
000m3
of
water.
Climate
change
is
a
continuing
process,
so
Norphel’s
ice
reserves
will
not
last
forever.
Warming
will
overtake
them.
But
he
is
providing
a
few
years
during
which
the
farmers
will,
perhaps,
be
able
to
find
other
means
of
adapting.
Increasing
Earth’s
reflectiveness
can
cool
the
planet.
In
southern
Spain
the
sudden
increase
of
greenhouses
(which
reflect
light
back
to
space)has
changed
the
warming
trend
locally,
and
actually
cooled
the
region.
While
Spain
as
a
whole
is
heating
up
quickly,
temperatures
near
the
greenhouses
have
decreased.
This
example
should
act
as
an
inspiration
for
all
cities.
By
painting
buildings
white,
cities
may
slow
down
the
warming
process.
In
Peru,
local
farmers
around
a
mountain
with
a
glacier
that
has
already
fallen
victim
to
climate
change
have
begun
painting
the
entire
mountain
peak
white
in
the
hope
that
the
added
reflectiveness
will
restore
the
life-giving
ice.
The
outcome
is
still
far
from
clear,
But
the
World
Bank
has
included
the
project
on
its
of
“100
ideas
to
save
the
planet”.
More
ordinary
forms
of
adaptation
are
happening
everywhere.
A
friend
of
mine
owns
an
area
of
land
in
western
Victoria.
Over
five
generations
the
land
has
been
too
wet
for
cropping.
But
during
the
past
decade
declining
rainfall
has
allows
him
to
plant
highly
profitable
crops.
Farmers
in
many
countries
are
also
adapting
like
this—either
by
growing
new
produce,
or
by
growing
the
same
things
differently.
This
is
common
sense,
But
some
suggestions
for
adapting
are
not.
When
the
polluting
industries
argue
that
we’ve
lost
the
battle
to
control
carbon
pollution
and
have
no
choice
but
to
adapt,
it’s
a
nonsense
designed
to
make
the
case
for
business
as
usual.
Human
beings
will
continue
to
adapt
to
the
changing
climate
in
both
ordinary
and
astonishing
ways.
But
the
most
sensible
form
of
adaptation
is
surely
to
adapt
our
energy
systems
to
emit
less
carbon
pollution.
After
all,
if
we
adapt
in
the
way,
we
may
avoid
the
need
to
change
in
so
many
others.
【语篇解读】本篇为说明文。文章所谈的是有关“adaptation”的问题：主要介绍了世界各地适应如今全球变暖的气候的新方法。
65.The
underlined
part
in
Paragraph
2
implies
_______.
A.
adaptation
is
an
ever-changing
process
B.
the
cost
of
adaptation
varies
with
time
C.
global
warming
affects
adaptation
forms
D.
adaptation
to
climate
change
is
challenging
【答案】A
【解析】句意猜测题。根据此句句首“This
is
why…”可知“this”指代的是上文的“We
are
therefore
not
talking
about
adapting
to
a
new
standard,
but
to
a
constantly
shifting
set
of
conditions.
因此，我们所说的不是适应新标准，而是适应不断变化的一系列条件”意思也就是说“气候变化是一个过程，适应性方法也在不断地调整”。划线句后一句由nevertheless开头，此句说明我们可以选择其他风险低和耗费低的方法。那么划线句就是说划线句adaptation的方法很多，补充说明前面的话(评估表明：“没有一种’一刀切’的适应方法)。故而选A。其余三项“适应的成本随时间而变化、全球变暖影响适应形式、适应气候变化具有挑战性”都与上文不相呼应。
66.What
is
special
with
regard
to
Rezwan’s
project?
A.
The
project
receives
government
support.
B.
Different
organizations
work
with
each
other.
C.
His
organization
makes
the
best
of
a
bad
situation.
D.
The
project
connects
flooded
roads
and
highways.
【答案】C
【解析】细节理解题。题干中的“Rezwan’s
project”定位到第三段“Mohammed
Rezwan
saw
opportunity
where
others
saw
only
disaster”，本句说：Mohammed
Rezwan看到了机遇，其他人只看到了灾难。换句话说：Mohammed
Rezwan把别人认为是灾难的地方看成了自己的机遇。以及他之后采取的用船充当基础设施的举措可看出C选项“他的组织在困境中做得最好”与之相符。A选项“该项目得到了政府的支持”，原文没有提及；B选项“不同组织通力合作”也和原文不符，原文只有Rezwan一个人的组织；D选项中的“flooded
roads
and
highways”是陷阱，原文虽然有所提及，对比原文“creating
floating
connectivity
to
replace
flooded
roads
and
highways创建浮动连接代替淹没的道路和高速公路”可知选项中的“connects”与原文不符。
67.What
did
the
Ice
Man
do
to
reduce
the
effect
of
global
warming?
A.
Storing
ice
for
future
use.
B.
Protecting
the
glaciers
from
melting.
C.
Changing
the
irrigation
time.
D.
Postponing
the
melting
of
the
glaciers.
【答案】A
【解析】细节理解题。根据题干中的“Ice
Man”定位到第五段“Norphel’s
inspiration
come
from
seeing
the
waste
of
water
over
winter,
when
it
was
not
needed.
He
directed
the
wasted
water
into
shallow
basins
where
it
froze,
and
was
stored
until
the
spring.”可知，把冰川融化后的水储存起来以备不时之需，是减少气候变暖危害的方法之一。对应选项A。而这种方法并没有改变冰川的融化和灌溉的时间，也没有推迟冰川的融化，故排除BCD选项。
68.What
do
we
learn
from
the
Peru
example?
A.
White
paint
is
usually
safe
for
buildings.
B.
The
global
warming
tread
cannot
be
stopped.
C.
This
country
is
heating
up
too
quickly.
D.
Sunlight
reflection
may
relieve
global
warming.
【答案】D
【解析】细节理解题。根据题干中的“Peru”定位到倒数第四段“By
painting
buildings
white,
cities
may
slow
down
the
warming
process.”和倒数第三段“painting
the
entire
mountain
peak
white
in
the
hope
that
the
added
reflectiveness
will
restore
the
life-giving
ice”可知，将墙壁涂成白色是利用了光的反射原理，这样可以缓解全球气候变暖，并且Peru的措施也应证了这一点。故选D。其余三项“白色油漆对建筑物通常是安全的、全球变暖的趋势是无法阻止的、这个国家的温度升得太快了”与上述两段所述内容不符。
69.According
to
the
author,
polluting
industries
should
_______.
A.
adapt
to
carbon
pollution
B.
plant
highly
profitable
crops
C.
leave
carbon
emission
alone
D.
fight
against
carbon
pollution
【答案】D
【解析】细节理解题。根据题干中的“polluting
industries”定位到倒数第二段“When
the
polluting
industries
argue
that
we’ve
lost
the
battle
to
control
carbon
pollution
and
have
no
choice
but
to
adapt,
it’s
a
nonsense”可知，目前一些造成污染的工业说他们已经对二氧化碳污染失去了控制，别无选择只能适应。但是作者认为，这种说辞是“胡说，一派胡言”。所以作者建议污染企业行动起来，应该与污染作斗争。选D项。AC选项“适应二氧化碳污染、放任碳排放而不管”是“polluting
industries”的观点；B选项“种植高效益作物”是作者朋友做的。
70.What’s
the
author’s
preferred
solution
to
global
warming?
A.
setting
up
a
new
standard.
B.
Reducing
carbon
emission.
C.
Adapting
to
climate
change.
D.
Monitoring
polluting
industries.
【答案】B
【解析】推理判断题。根据最后一段“But
the
most
sensible
form
of
adaptation
is
surely
to
adapt
our
energy
systems
to
emit
less
carbon
pollution.”可知，作者认为，适应最明智的形式无疑是使我们能源系统排放更少的碳污染。也就是说：改变我们的能源系统来减少二氧化碳的排放，从根源上解决气候变暖的问题。故选B项：减少碳排放。其余三个选项“制定新的标准、适应气候变化、监测污染工业”都不是作者赞成的解决全球变暖的办法。
第四部分
任务型阅读(共10小题；每小题1分，满分10分)请认真阅读下列短文，并根据所读内容在文章后表格中的空格里填入一个最恰当的单词。
注意：请将答案写在答题卡上相应题号的横线上。每个空格只填一个单词。
Population
Change
Why
is
the
world’s
population
growing?
The
answer
is
not
what
you
might
think.
The
reason
for
the
explosion
is
not
that
people
have
been
reproducing
like
rabbits,
but
that
people
have
stopped
dropping
dead
like
flies.
In
1900,
people
died
at
the
average
age
of
30.
By
2000
the
average
age
was
65.
But
while
increasing
health
was
a
typical
feature
of
the
20th
century,
declining
birth
rate
could
be
a
defining
one
of
the
21st.
Statistics
show
that
the
average
number
of
births
per
woman
has
fallen
from
4.9
in
the
early
1960s
to
2.5
nowadays.
Furthermore,
around
50%
of
the
world’s
population
live
in
regions
where
the
figure
is
now
below
the
replacement
level(i.e.2.1
births
per
woman)and
almost
all
developed
nations
are
experiencing
sub-replacement
birth
rate.
You
might
think
that
developing
nations
would
make
up
the
loss(especially
since
80%
of
the
world’s
people
now
live
in
such
nations),
but
you’d
be
wrong.
Declining
birth
rate
is
a
major
problem
in
many
developing
regions
too,
which
might
cause
catastrophic
global
shortages
of
work
force
within
a
few
decades.
A
great
decline
in
young
work
force
is
likely
to
occur
in
China,
for
instance.
What
does
it
imply?
First,
China
needs
to
undergo
rapid
economic
development
before
a
population
decline
hits
the
country.
Second,
if
other
factors
such
as
technology
remain
constant,
economic
growth
and
material
expectations
will
fall
well
below
recent
standards
and
this
could
invite
trouble.
Russia
is
another
country
with
population
problems
that
could
break
its
economic
promise.
Since
1992
the
number
of
people
dying
has
been
bigger
than
that
of
those
being
born
by
a
massive
50%.
Indeed
official
figures
suggest
the
country
has
shrunk
by
5%
since
1993
and
people
in
Russia
live
a
shorter
life
now
than
those
in
1961.Why
is
this
occurring?
Nobody
is
quite
sure,
but
poor
diet
an
above
all
long-time
alcoholism
have
much
to
do
with
it.
If
current
trends
don’t
bend,
Russia’s
population
will
be
about
the
size
of
Yemen’s
by
the
year
2050.
In
the
north
of
India,
the
population
is
booming
due
to
high
birth
rates,
but
in
the
south,
where
most
economic
development
is
taking
place,
birth
rate
is
falling
rapidly.
In
a
further
twist,
birth
rate
is
highest
in
poorly
educated
rural
areas
and
lowest
in
highly
educated
urban
areas.
In
total,
25%
of
India’s
working-age
population
has
no
education.
In
2030,
a
sixth
of
the
country’s
potential
work
force
could
be
totally
uneducated.
One
solution
is
obviously
to
import
foreign
workers
via
immigration.
As
for
the
USA,
it
is
almost
unique
among
developed
nations
in
having
a
population
that
is
expected
to
grow
by
20%
from
2010-2030.
Moreover,
the
USA
has
a
track
record
of
successfully
accepting
immigrants.
As
a
result
it’s
likely
to
see
a
rise
in
the
size
of
its
working-age
population
and
to
witness
strong
economic
growth
over
the
longer
term.

【语篇解读】本篇为说明文。文章讲了有关人口与经济的问题。得益于医疗技术的进步，世界人口虽然在增长，但是不断下降的出生率却是二十一世纪所面临的一个严峻问题。文章讲了有关人口与经济的问题。得益于医疗技术的进步，世界人口虽然在增长，但是不断下降的出生率却是二十一世纪所面临的一个严峻问题。
71.【答案】lower
【解析】信息转换题。根据题干定位到第一段最后一句“But
while
increasing

was
a
typical
feature
of
the
20th
century,
declining
birth
rate
could
be
a

of
the
21st.但是，尽管健康水平的提高是二十世纪的一个典型特征，但出生率的下降可能是二十一世纪的一个决定性特征”。根据定位句可知，二十一世纪的出生率比20世纪低。用low修饰rate的低，much后加比较级。故而用lower。根据题干前面的“Decline
of
the
birth
rate出生率下降”也可以推出答案。
72.【答案】size/scale
【解析】信息转换题。根据第二段“Furthermore,
around
50%
of
the
world’s

live
in
regions
where
the
figure
is
now
below
the
replacement
level(i.e.2.1

almost
all
developed
nations
are
experiencing
sub-replacement
birth
rate此外，世界上大约50%的人口生活在人口低于人口置换水平的地区(即每个妇女生育2.1个孩子)，几乎所有发达国家的出生率都低于次置换出生率”。根据定位句可知：发达国家人口出生率正在下降，发达国家保持人口的现有规模(maintain
size/scale)也是困难重重。
73.【答案】immediate
【解析】信息转换题。根据题干中的“developing
countries”定位到第二段“You
might
think
that
developing

make
up
the

within
a

decades你可能会认为发展中国家会弥补损失(特别是因为世界上80%的人现在生活在发展中国家)。但是你错了，这可能会在几十年内造成全球灾难性的劳动力短缺”。根据最后的叙述可知，
在发展中国家，出生率下降的影响是灾难性的，但不会立即显现出来，而要等到几十年之后，故答案为immediate(与“disastrous”同词性)。
74.【答案】economic
【解析】貌似信息查找题，其实还是信息概括题。浏览右边方框的75-78题可知，讲的都是“人口与经济的问题”。因为修饰名词“pressure”，故填形容词性的economic。实际上，接下来的几段分别讲了中国、俄罗斯、印度的人口与经济压力的问题。
75.【答案】old/older
【解析】信息转换题。根据题干定位到第三段第一句“A
great
decline
in
young
work
force
is
likely
to
occur
in
China.在中国，年轻劳动力可能会大幅减少”。换句话说就是：中国可能会迎来年轻劳动力的危机，即劳动力老龄化，故答案为old/older。
76.【答案】earlier
【解析】信息转换题。根据题干定位到第四段“Indeed
official
figures
suggest
the

1961.事实上，官方数据显示，自1993年以来，俄罗斯经济已经萎缩了5%，俄罗斯人现在的寿命比1961年的还要短。……但糟糕的饮食，尤其是长期酗酒，与此有很大关系”。也就是说：俄罗斯人口由于缩短的寿命(即早逝)而导致了人口的萎缩。故答案为earlier。
77.【答案】living/life
【解析】信息概括题。根据题干定位到第四段。根据第四段中对俄罗斯人的不良饮食习惯和酗酒的描述可以看出，他们的生活方式需要改变。way
of
living/life“生活方式”。
78.【答案】equality
【解析】信息概括题。根据题干定位到第五段。根据第五段中对于印度人口出生率以及经济发展与教育的关系的叙述可以得出这样的结论：印度若能实现公民受教育机会的平等化，它的经济会有大的增长。故填equality。
79.【答案】immigration
【解析】信息查找题。根据题干定位到最后一段。根据“One

80.【答案】compensate
【解析】信息转换题。根据题干定位到最后一段。根据“Moreover,
the

The
box-office
income
of
Chinese
movies
witnessed
a
constant
increase
from
about
17
billion
yuan
in
2012
to
over
40
billion
in
2015.
However,
that
increase
slowed
down
in
2016.
The
reasons
behind
this
are
various.
The
fast
economic
development
before
2016
was
probably
the
most
powerful
engine
driving
the
constant
growth
in
the
box-office
income.
The
application
of
new
technologies
and
the
wide
appeal
of
movie
stars
could
also
account
for
the
increase.
However,
China
saw
a
decline
in
its
economic
growth
rate
last
year.
And
the
internet
increased
options
for
movie
lovers.
Consequently,
some
viewers
began
to
turn
away
from
cinemas,
leading
to
a
slower
growth.
China’s
economy
is
expected
to
grow
at
a
medium
speed
in
the
coming
years,
so
an
increase
is
possible
in
the
investment
in
the
movie
industry
and
the
number
of
quality
movies.
Therefore,
its
box-office
income
will
probably
enjoy
a
slight
increase.

As

another,

down
in

The
increase
in
the
box-office
income
can
be
attributed
to
a
number
of
factors.
The
quality
of
life
has
improved
and
watching
films
is
regarded
as
a
good
means
of
entertainment.
Besides,
filming
technology
has
advanced
and
more
quality
films
are
on
offer.
Moreover,
the
internet
plays
an
important
part.
On
the
internet,
people
can
seek
information
about
their
favorite
stars
and
buy
tickets
at
a
discount
as
well,
which
is
both
time-saving
and
economical.
However,
the
film
market
may
witness
a
slowdown
in
the
near
future.
Cinemas
have
gradually
given
way
to
the
rise
of
the
internet
and
cellphones,
and
the
ticket
price
is
on
the
increase.
Therefore,
the
film
industry
should
make
greater
efforts
to
attract
more
viewers.
