Ⅲ.阅读理解
(2019·邢台一中月考)
There are many acceptable varieties of English throughout the world. Whichever variety is used in your country,the most important thing is that students' pronunciation must be good enough for another person to understand what they are trying to say.
In a PPP lesson,teachers naturally include a good model of the pronunciation when they are presenting new vocabulary,grammar or functional language. It is important to start by helping your students recognize sounds before you expect them to pronounce them.
Spoken British English has 44 sounds,but there are only 26 letters in the alphabet for written English. This sometimes makes English pronunciation and spelling different,so it is not always best to write words on the blackboard at the early stages. Also,some sounds in English do not exist in some other languages. This can make it very difficult for students to recognize these sounds and even more difficult for them to pronounce them correctly. So some students need to do a lot of work on these sounds,listening to them,trying to recognize them and trying to copy them.
If you can understand and pronounce the symbols of the phonetic alphabet,this will help you to pronounce any word in the dictionary. You can teach this phonetic alphabet to your students and this will make teaching pronunciation much easier. However,you can teach pronunciation effectively without knowing the phonetic alphabet. Pronouncing English well is not just about getting the individual sounds right. Students need to know:
?which parts of a word are stressed(spoken louder and longer);
?which parts of a sentence are stressed;
?basic intonation patterns;
?what it means when we change the intonation in a sentence (the music of the language);
?how to link together the sounds within a sentence.
Students need practice in all these areas to improve their pronunciation.
【解题导语】 英语的种类如此之多,如何能让别人更好地理解你要表达的意思?本文作者向我们介绍了如何教授英语发音。
1.The passage is most probably from ________.
A.a book for English learning
B.a book for English teaching
C.a grammar book for English learning
D.an ad for English teaching
解析:选B 推理判断题。从第二段开始,作者着重介绍如何教授英语发音。
2.Following the passage,the author would probably ________.
A.emphasize the importance of correct pronunciation
B.say how to teach the phonetic alphabet
C.write about how to teach pronunciation without the phonetic alphabet
D.explain in detail how to practise the five suggestions
解析:选D 推理判断题。从全文特别是文章的最后两段便能推断出答案。
3.Which of the following can NOT prove that English pronunciation is difficult?
A.There are more sounds than letters in English.
B.English contains some unique sounds that other languages don't have.
C.Knowing how to pronounce every word doesn't mean pronouncing English well.
D.Students' pronunciation must be good enough for another person.
解析:选D 细节理解题。A、B、C三个选项都与问题有关联,只有D项与问题无关。
4.In the author's opinion,________.
A.students should pronounce every word as precisely as native speakers
B.the English phonetic alphabet is a must in teaching pronunciation
C.it is not necessary to pronounce every word correctly

Ⅳ. 完形填空
There are about fifteen hundred languages in the world,but __1__ a few of them are very __2__. English is one of these. Many,many people use it,not only in England or the U. S. A.,but in other parts of the world. About 200, 000, 000 people speak it as their own language. It is difficult to say how many people are learning it as a __3__ language.

【解题导语】 你知道世界上有多少种语言吗?你在学校觉得外语难学吗?认真阅读本文后,你会得到这两个问题的答案。
1.A.not          B.quite
C.only D.very
解析:选C 根据句意,强调 “只有少数几个十分的重要”,所以用only。
2.A.difficult B.important
C.necessary D.easy
解析:选B 说明英语是重要的,由下文就可得出结论。
3.A.native B.foreign
C.useful D.mother
解析:选B 句意:很难说清有多少人在把它当作外语来学。因此用foreign。
4.A.learning B.enjoying
C.trying D.liking
解析:选C 本句中的 “to do so”中的do指learn,因此再选learn不恰当;try to do so “在努力地学”。
5.A.questions B.problems
C.ideas D.answers
解析:选D 不同的人对这一问题有不同答案,因此D选项正确。
6.A.found B.watched
C.noticed D.known
解析:选C 本句是询问你是否注意到报纸和杂志上的广告了,因此用noticed。其余三项found “发现”;watched “观察”;known “知道”都不合适。
7.A.knowledge B.time
C.money D.English
解析:选C 本句是一句广告词 “6周学会英语否则退款”,因此用money。
8.A.make B.help
C.let D.allow
解析:选B 本句还是广告词 “我们的录音带能帮助你在一个月中掌握英语”,因此本句中用help。
9.A.from B.on
C.since D.after
解析:选A  “自从第一天”本句用的是将来时态,因此用from,since与完成时态连用。
10.A.spelling B.grammar
C.English D.pronunciation
解析:选D 通过录音带可以提高发音,因此用pronunciation。
11.A.happened B.looked
C.seemed D.felt
解析:选A happen “发生”,广告中提及的一切并未像所说的一样发生。
12.A.know B.remember
C.understand D.think
解析:选B  “我们应该记得我们是孩子时”应选remember。
13.A.students B.children
C.workers D.grown-ups
解析:选B  “当我们是孩子时我们学习语言都学得很好”,因此应选children。
14.A.Act B.Mind
C.Do D.Think of
解析:选D 前文提到孩子学习语言学得很好,因此此处用think of,意为 “思考一下”。act “行动,表现”;mind “介意”;do “做”,均不合题意。
15.A.talking B.thinking
C.trying D.practising
解析:选B  “他试着考虑他所听到的”,因此用thinking。talking “交谈”;trying “尝试”;practising “练习”,均不合语境。儿童学语言有一个思考过程,用thinking。
16.A.time B.money
C.language D.practice
解析:选D  “想想他进行了多少次的练习”,因为他一直用这种语言交流。
17.A.hard B.easy
C.funny D.difficult
解析:选B 由下文可知学习英语只要多练习是很容易的,因此选择easy。
18.A.depends B.tries
C.has D.takes
解析:选A  “学习英语依赖于多练习”。depend on依赖,依靠;try on 试验,试用,试穿;have on 穿着,戴着;takes on 呈现。
19.A.uses B.takes
C.gets D.expects
解析:选B 练习需要大量时间。花费时间,用takes。
20.A.do B.work
C.help D.master
解析:选C 本句表示 “起帮助作用”,因此用help(本句为不及物动词)。work “起作用”;do “做”;master “掌握”均不如help符合上下文意思。
Ⅴ. 短文改错
Dear Peter,
I am writing to ask whether you are able to do me a favor. I want to have the pen friend,hopefully,a girl in her early twenties,and with interests similarly to mine. In my mind,he is someone who is interesting in traveling,swimming,and playing table tennis. However,it would be better for her to have a pet dog as I have been kept one at home for some time. With such a pen friend,I hope I can share with her our experiences in traveling,taking care pets,or whatever we have in common. I believed I will improve my English by doing so and learn more about her countries. I am looking forward to hear from you soon.
Best regards.

Ⅲ.阅读理解
A
Learning English as the second language for non-native English speakers is not an easy task. It needs to spend a considerable time before you could speak or write the English language. There are only two ways to learn the English language or any other language you prefer.
The first one needs a lot of money because of the requirements needed. If you notice, a person migrated(移民)to another country and stayed there for a couple of years and then going back to his home non-native speaking country, the person became so familiar in speaking English. This is the most effective way of learning to speak and write a language unfamiliar to you.
The learner learns the language because he/she is forced to do so because there is no other language being used. Not to mention that the learner should adapt to the environment. It is all started from listening. This is the process how language is acquired if you will stay long in a foreign country.
The second one is the traditional way. You go to school or learning center specialized in teaching English as the second language. Obviously, this is cheaper than the first, but it needs a considerable time before you will learn to familiarize the language. Today, there are different language centers offering their services for people to learn the language in your own country. They brought all the materials needed because, compared to the first one, they're affordable and reasonable.
Nowadays, learning English as the second language is one of the global trends. Since the English language is used in most of the business transactions, you should be on it too. Otherwise you will not go along with the future trends that will arise.
【解题导语】 本文主要介绍了英语学习的两种方法,一种是到说这种语言的国家去生活几年,在这种环境下你会很快学好这门语言,但这种方式费用太高了;另一种是传统的学习方式,就是在学校里花大量的时间学习,或上培训班,这是个费时但大部分人都负担得起的方式。无论怎样,学习英语是大势所趋,是未来工作的需要。
1.Now an affordable way to learn a foreign language but not to go abroad is to ________.
A.go to a foreign language school
B.study in a language center
C.communicate with more people
D.invite a foreigner as a teacher
解析:选B 细节理解题。从第四段的第四句 “Today, there are different language centers offering their services...”可以找到本题答案的依据。
2.The last paragraph mainly tells us ________.
A.the global trends of the present world
B.the difficulty of learning a second language
C.the most important way of learning a second language
D.the importance of learning a second language
解析:选D 主旨大意题。最后一段说明了学习第二语言是当今的一个趋势,是人人都应该做的,否则就跟不上时代的潮流了。所以这一段主要告诉我们学习第二语言的重要性。
3.From the passage we can learn ________.
A.learning foreign languages is easy
B.there are many ways to learn foreign languages
C.family environment is very helpful for learning foreign languages
D.learning foreign languages is good for your future career
解析:选D 推理判断题。从最后一段可以判断出学习好外语对将来的就业很有好处;从第一段的第一句话可以看出A项不正确;从第一段的最后一句话可以判断B项不正确;环境对语言学习很重要,但本文没有讲到家庭环境,故C项不正确。
B
When it comes to friends, I desire those who will share my happiness with me. When I was in the eighth grade, I had a friend. We were shy and “too serious” about our studies when it was becoming fashionable with our classmates to learn acceptable social behaviors. We said little at school, but she would come to my house and we would sit down with pencils and paper, and one of us would say: “Let's start with a train whistle today. ”We would sit quietly together and write separate poems or stories that grew out of a train whistle. Then we would read them aloud. At the end of that school year, we, too, were changed into social creatures and the stories and poems stopped.
When I lived for a time in London, I had a friend. He was in despair (失望)and I was in despair. But our friendship was based on the idea in each of us that we would be sorry later if we did not explore this great city because we had felt bad at the time. We met every Sunday for five weeks and found many excellent things. We walked until our despairs disappeared and then we parted. We_gave_London_to_each_other.
For almost four years I have had remarkable friend. We write long letters in which we often discover our strangest selves. Each of us appears, sometimes in a funny way, in the other's dreams. She and I agree that, at certain times, we seem to be parts of the same mind. In my most interesting moments, I often think: “Yes, I must tell...”We have never met.
It is such comforting companions I wish to keep. One bright hour with their kind is worth more to me than the lifetime services of a psychologist (心理学家),who will only fill up the healing (愈合的)silence necessary to those darkest moments in which I would rather be my own best friend.
【解题导语】 全文讲述了朋友在成长过程中的重要作用。
4.In the eighth grade, what the author did before developing proper social behavior was to ________.
A.become serious about her study
B.go to her friend's house regularly
C.learn from her classmates at school
D.share poems and stories with her friend
解析:选D 细节理解题。由第一段最后三句可知:作者与她的朋友分享诗歌与故事。
5.In Paragraph 2, “We gave London to each other. ”probably means ________.
A.our exploration of London was a memorable gift to both of us
B.we were unwilling to tear ourselves away from London
C.our unpleasant feelings about London disappeared
D.we parted with each other in London
解析:选A 句意理解题。由第二段内容可知在我们的沮丧消失后,我们分开了,我们给对方留下了自己开拓的空间。
6.According to Paragraph 3, the author and her friend ______.
A.call each other regularly
B.have similar personalities
C.enjoy writing to each other
D.dream of meeting each other
解析:选C 推理判断题。由第三段内容可知作者和朋友写了四年时间的信,由此可以推断她们都喜欢相互写信。
7.In the darkest moments, the author would prefer to ________.
A.ask for professional help    B.be left alone
C.stay with her best friend D.break the silence
解析:选B 细节理解题。由最后一段最后一句可知,作者在最黑暗的时候喜欢一个人待着。
Ⅳ.七选五

Learn a Second Language
Some people learn a second language easily. Other people have trouble learning a new language. How can you help yourself learn a new language,such as English?There are several ways to make learning English a little easier and more interesting.
The first step is to feel positive about learning English. If you believe that you can learn,you will learn. Be patient. You do not have to understand everything all at once. It is natural to make mistakes when you learn something new. We can learn from our mistakes. In other words,do not worry about taking risks.
The second step is to practice your English. You can write in a journal,or keep a diary,every day. You will get used to writing in English,and you will feel comfortable expressing your ideas in English. After several weeks,you will see that your writing is improving. In addition,you must speak English every day. You can practice with your classmates outside class. You will all make mistakes,but gradually you will become comfortable when communicating in English.
The third step is to keep a record of your language learning. You can write this in your journal. After each class,think about what you did. Did you answer a question correctly?Did you understand anything the teacher explained?Perhaps the lesson was difficult,but you tried to understand it. Write these accomplishments in your journal.
You must be positive about learning English and believe that you can do it. It is important to practice every day and make a record of your achievements. You will enjoy learning English,and you will feel more confident in yourself.

(2019·福建泉港一中高二期中)
One spring,when I was 10,during one of my father's layoffs(失业),I could tell my mother was unhappy. I decided to cheer her up by buying her a special Mother's Day gift. One day after school I rode my bike to the Agins,which,I learned years later,was known for its high-end fashions and styles. I introduced myself to Sylvia Agins,telling her I was looking for a Mother's Day present.
“Do you think she'd like a purse?” she asked. “I thought she might,”I told her.
She took out an Italian handbag made of leather. She asked me what I thought,and I told her that my mom would like it.
“How much money do you have?” she asked.
“Twelve dollars,” I said.
“You're in luck,” she told me. “It's only $11.You have a dollar left over for the card. ” She gift-wrapped the purse and thanked me for my business,and I rode off home with the package under my arm.
When my mother opened the gift the next Sunday morning,she asked in an accusing tone, “Where did you get this?”
“I bought it at the Agins. It cost me $11,”I said.
My mother was shocked into silence.
It wasn't until many years later,when I learned that the purse was worth several hundred dollars,that I appreciated just how wonderful Sylvia Agins had been to me. I always felt bad that I never had a chance to properly thank her.
“You know,my son,what really amazes me to this day,” my mother said, “Letting you have the purse for just a few dollars was unbelievable enough. But the fact that she let you leave the store with a dollar for the card was a touch of kindness that I'll never forget. ”
【解题导语】  因为想逗因父亲失业而心情低落的母亲开心,作者决定送母亲一个特别的母亲节礼物。了解情况后的店主Sylvia Agins将价值几百美元的钱包以11美元的价格出售给了作者。这一暖心举动让作者和他的母亲感动不已。
4.The author bought his mother a purse to ________.
A.make his mother happy

Ⅲ.语法填空
The British have many traditions but there is nothing more quintessential(典型的)than taking afternoon tea.

This sociable feast involves drinking good quality tea 3.____________ (comfort)while nibbling(小口吃)on nice sandwiches, scones with jam and cream and a selection of small cakes. And, of course, it can only happen in the afternoon!Afternoon tea, which 4.____________ (design)as a light snack to bridge the gap between lunch and dinner, dates back to the 1840s.

But if you're thinking of visiting such a place 8.____________ (enjoy)a plate of sweet and savory treats with a steaming hot brew, remember the rules you must follow to avoid 9.____________ (ask)to leave.
Writer Henry James once noted that “there are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea”. I'm sure once you 10.____________ (try)it, you will agree.
【解题导语】 本文讲述的是英国最经典的传统——下午茶以及它在英国的发展和影响。
1.解析:考查介词。此处是with+宾语+过去分词的用法,作伴随状语。
答案:with
2.解析:考查冠词。pastime “娱乐;消遣” 是可数名词,此处表示泛指,且popular以辅音音素开头,所以前面要用不定冠词a。
答案:a
3.解析:考查副词。drinking是动词,后面要用副词comfortably修饰。
答案:comfortably
4.解析:考查动词的时态和语态。afternoon tea和design是被动关系,再结合后面的 “要追溯到19世纪40年代” 可知,此处要用一般过去时的被动语态was designed。
答案:was designed
5.解析:考查形容词。occasion是名词,前面要用形容词修饰,所以此处填fashionable。
答案:fashionable
6.解析:考查名词。its是形容词性物主代词,后面要跟名词popularity。
答案:popularity
7.解析:考查连词。 “it can be enjoyed at home” 和 “the best way to experience it is at a smart hotel or café” 在意思上是转折关系,所以此处要用表示让步的连词Although /Though /While。
答案:Although /Though /While
8.解析:考查非谓语动词。此处是动词不定式表目的。
答案:to enjoy
9.解析:考查非谓语动词。avoid后面跟doing, 此处应该是 “避开被要求”,所以要用being asked。
答案:being asked
10.解析:考查动词的时态。句意:我相信一旦你(已经)尝试了,你就会赞成的。根据句意可知, “尝试” 的动作会产生 “赞成” 的结果,所以这里用现在完成时。
答案:have tried

One possible version:
Good_morning,_everyone!
In today's world, being able to master a foreign language is helpful in our life. Here I'd like to share my learning methods. First, I think it useful to learn some grammar and remember as many useful sentence patterns as possible. Second, I believe the more we read, the better our English will be. So I spend much time reading English newspapers and magazines after class, which helps to improve my English. Besides, TV and radio programmes are of great help as well.
Learning English has made me know more about foreign culture. However, sometimes I get discouraged because I keep forgetting words I have just learned. Could you give me some practical advice?
Thank_you!

It is the “original” variety of English and the BBC and many international newspapers use it.Others are in favour of American English. They hold the view that most English language films are American, which has led to more and more people across the world using American English. In my opinion, whichever English we use, we have no difficulty understanding each other, because they have a lot in common. 单元质量评估检测卷(一)

Neither pretty nor ugly, they're strange especially his face. It's like a flat board. On the board, eyes, nose, mouth and ears are all in their places. But each of them possesses easily recognized characteristics. ?Take eyes for example, while they are open, what you can see are two very narrow lines. And nose, a little bit raised and shaped like a badminton bat. ?And his mouth is, well, let me say in this way, each corner could reach the ear, as the same goes smile from ear to ear or wear a big smile. But our guy never smiles. Actually, he doesn't know how to smile, not to say laugh.

Smart Cameras to Help You Take Better Photos

Google says machine learning helps the camera choose the best times and situations for taking pictures and videos. Interested buyers can join a waiting list to be informed when it is on the market.
GoPro Hero
GoPro also uses machine learning to power its QuikStories characteristic. This tool takes existing photos and videos and automatically(自动地)creates a finished video piece,complete with music and effects.

Apple iPhone X
Apple's new iPhone X is being launched with its new Face ID system that it says will unlock the phone just by having the user look at it. This replaces the Touch ID on previous ones that used a fingerprint to unlock the phone.
Apple says the system works by projecting more than 30, 000 dots on the face to create a kind of map. Apple says its facial recognition is even secure enough to allow payments through its Apple Pay service.

American and British people both speak English of course. But sometimes it does not seem like the same language. In fact,there are some important differences between British English and American English.
First of all,they sound very different. Often,Americans don't say each word separately. They say several words together. Americans may say “I dunno” instead of “I don't know”. Or they may say “Whaddya say?” instead of “What did you say?”However,the British are more careful in their speech. They usually say all the words and keep them separate.
Sound is not only the difference between British English and American English. Words sometimes have different meanings too. Some American words are never used in England. The_same_thing_is_true_of_some_British_words_in_America._For example,the vocabulary for cars and driving is very different. Americans drive trucks,but in England people drive lorries.
Many expressions are also different in the two countries. In England,if you are going to telephone your friends,you “phone them up”. In America,you “give them a call”. When you are saying goodbye in England you might say “Cheerio!” In America you might say “See you later. ”
There're also some differences in grammar. For example,Americans usually use the helping verb “do” when they ask a question. They say “Do you have a storybook?” But the British often leave out the helping verb. They say “Have you a storybook?”
All these differences can be confusing if you are learning English. But most languages are like this. Languages change over time. When people live in separate places,the languages change in different ways. This is what has happened to English. It can also happen to other languages,such as French. Many people in Canada speak French,but their French is very different from the French of France.
【解题导语】  本文从四个方面介绍了英式英语和美式英语的差异。
24.What does the author think of the differences between American and British English?
A.American and British English are the same language.
B.American and British English are quite different.
C.Although American English came from the British English, there are still some important differences.
D.There are slight differences between American and British English.
解析:选C 细节理解题。根据第一段最后两句可知选C。
25.What does the underlined word “separately” in Paragraph 2 mean?
A.Together. B.One by one.
C.In common. D.In different ways.
解析:选B 词义猜测题。由下一句 “They say several words together. ”及之后举的例子可以看出,美国人说英语会把好几个单词连在一起说,即不是一个单词一个单词地说。one by one“一个接一个”。
26.What does the underlined sentence “The same thing is true of some British words in America. ” mean?
A.The words of American and British English are the same.
B.The spelling of American and British English is the same.
C.Although they don't sound the same,the words are the same.
D.Some British English words are not used in American English.
解析:选D 句意理解题。从第三段中的 “Some American words are never used in England. ”可以看出,有些美式英语的单词在英式英语中是不用的,可推知画线部分意为 “有些英式英语中的单词在美式英语中也不使用”。
27.How many ways are talked about the differences between American and British English in the passage?
A.One. B.Two.
C.Three. D.Four.
解析:选D 细节理解题。文章在四个方面进行了探讨,它们是sound,words,expressions和grammar。
C
Read a lot,I mean a lot!You have to increase your ability for reading. Many students are in the habit of reading only when their exams are approaching while some others read only what they are taught or things that must be read because it is in their curriculum. But listen to me now, I am telling you from my own experience that it is a very bad habit and it is not enough to improve your intelligence.
You have to learn and get ready to become versatile in your reading. The fact that you are studying medicine in school does not mean that you should not know one or two things on politics.
Many people have complained to me that they find it hard to read stuffs like novels but I just shake my head in pity for them because it is obvious they have failed to realize the truth in that wise saying by Margaret Fuller that “today a READER, tomorrow a LEADER!”
When you read, you get to “see” so many places and it will be as if you have visited those places in real life. This is because reading will improve your imagination and creativity and understanding. You also get experience from learning about how people dealt with their various problems thereby saving you from going through the pains and difficulties they must have gone through!
Reading will also help you in improving your vocabulary because you will certainly start coming across so many new words which you will try as much as possible to get accustomed to with the help of the dictionary!The good thing about increasing your vocabulary is that it will also improve your thinking ability. After all, we think in words and the more words you know, the easier it will become for you to express yourself or your thoughts.
And when you read, make sure you read so wide because the more you read, the more you know and the more you know,the more intelligent you can become.
【解题导语】 本文主要讲述阅读的种种好处,进而总结出一个道理:阅读提高你的智力。
28.The underlined word “versatile” in Paragraph 2 is closest in meaning to “________”.
A.interested B.many-sided
C.content D.confident
解析:选B 词义猜测题。根据后一句可知,在学校里,你学习一门课程的同时,还要学习其他领域的知识,因此在学习中要阅读各个方面的书籍,故可猜测versatile是 “多角度,多方面”之意。
29.What is the benefit of knowing more words?
A.You will get used to referring to the dictionary when meeting with new words.
B.You will have less difficulty expressing your opinions.
C.Vocabulary will improve your creativity.
D.You can pass your exams with ease.
解析:选B 细节理解题。根据文章倒数第二段最后一句可推知答案。
30.According to the author, what should students do in terms of reading?
A.They needn't read unless the exams come.
B.They should read books about intelligence.
C.They must read about politics when their major is medicine.
D.They should read as wide as possible.
解析:选D 细节理解题。根据文章最后一段可知,作者认为一个人应当尽量广泛阅读。故选D。
31.What is the best title for the passage?
A.Increase Your Ability for Reading
B.Read Wide and Improve Your Vocabulary
C.Reading Improves Your Intelligence
D.Reading Makes You a Leader Tomorrow
解析:选C 标题归纳题。纵观全文,本文主要讲述阅读的种种好处,进而总结出一个道理:阅读提高你的智力。因此选项C作标题最佳。

(2019·河北故城高中高二期中)
Many automobile makers present their newest designs at car shows around the world. Many designers seek to create the car of the future. One device that is popular among car manufacturers(生产商)is an autopilot. Autopilot permits a car to drive itself without human control.
A recent car show in Geneva,Switzerland also presented other possible designs,including cars manufactured in 3D printers.
Rinspeed is a Swiss design company. It showed a vehicle based on the U. S. electric car Tesla Model S,but the Rinspeed car includes a large television and an espresso coffee maker.
Frank Rinderknecht is the CEO of Rinspeed. He says he does not want to just sit and watch the steering wheel(方向盘)turn as he rides in a car with autopilot.
“I want to ride,I want to sleep,relax,watch movies,news,anything else. So that's the vision which we have. That one day on the boring motorway traffic,you just do anything which makes your life better,” said Rinderknecht.
One of the most interesting ideas presented at the show is a car built on a 3D printer. The German engineering firm EDAG designed the car. The body of the vehicle called “Genesis” is printed in one piece from a material called thermoplastic(热塑性塑料).
Christoph Horvath is a spokesman for EDAG.
“To create a car without the use of any tool. This would be a real revolution for the industry,” said Horvath.
EDAG says it based its design on a turtle shell. The company says the design provides the right amount of strength and firmness.
Other automakers did not look so far into the future. Czech automaker Skoda presented its “Vision C” model vehicle. The car has an environmentally friendly natural gas engine.
Jo Davidson is a company spokeswoman. She says the car releases very low levels of the pollutant gas CO2. Ms. Davidson says the “Vision C” plans to be launched in two years.
【解题导语】  本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍了日内瓦车展展示出的未来汽车的特点。
32.Why is an autopilot popular among car manufacturers?
A.Because it can get a car to drive itself.
B.Because it can make a car more modern.
C.Because it may let a car fly in the sky freely.
D.Because it has a car moving in a particular direction.
解析:选A 细节理解题。根据第一段中的 “One device that is popular among car manufacturers(生产商)is an autopilot. Autopilot permits a car to drive itself without human control. ”可知答案。
33.What do we know about the vehicle called “Genesis”?
A.It is designed by the American engineering firm.
B.The body of the vehicle is built on a 3D printer.
C.Frank Rinderknecht is the designer of the car.
D.The car was mainly made from the turtle shell.
解析:选B 细节理解题。根据第六段中的 “The body of the vehicle called ‘Genesis’ is printed in one piece from a material called thermoplastic(热塑性塑料). ”可知答案。
34.What is the common feature of the cars?
A.They are all made from thermoplastic.
B.They all belong to the cars of the future.
C.All the designs are based on a turtle shell.
D.They have environmentally friendly natural gas engine.
解析:选B 推理判断题。根据第一段中的 “Many designers seek to create the car of the future. ”以及下文的介绍,特别是多次出现的单词design都可以推知,这些汽车都是未来的汽车设想。故选B。
35.Where can we most probably read this text?
A.In an economic report.
B.In a short story.
C.In a travel magazine.
D.In a technology report.
解析:选D 文章出处题。纵观全文可知,本文介绍了未来汽车的几种设计,故应出自技术方面的报告。故选D。

【解题导语】 本文为说明文。一项研究表明,现在的大部分成年人小时候都做过家务,而现在的大部分孩子不像以前的孩子那样做很多家务了。
61.解析:考查副词。分析句子结构可知,空处修饰谓语动词,故要用副词形式actively。
答案:actively
62.解析:考查冠词。此处的 “study”就是上文提到的那个 “study”,故用定冠词the 表示特指。
答案:the
63.解析:考查介词。根据固定搭配 spend sth. on sth. 可知,此处填介词on。
答案:on
64.解析:考查非谓语动词。根据语境可知,这里说的是 “停止做某事”,而不是 “停下来去做某事”,故用stop doing sth. 搭配。
答案:doing
65.解析:考查定语从句。分析句子结构可知,空处在句中引导定语从句,先行词为kids,关系代词在从句中作主语,因此本空填who/that。
答案:who/that
66.解析:考查非谓语动词。此处是be likely to do sth. 句型,故填不定式。
答案:to succeed
67.解析:考查动词的时态和语态。本句含有 “be said+动词不定式”结构,且这里说的是现在的一般情况,主语为Personal happiness,因此填 is said。
答案:is said
68.解析: 考查形容词。本空应填形容词helpful与kind 并列作表语。
答案:helpful

One possible version:
With the development of the world, English has become an international language used among people from different countries. But how to improve our listening skill is a big problem to us Chinese students. Here is some advice which I hope may be useful for you.
First, listen as much as you can. The more you listen, the easier it will be. But don't listen too long each time. Half an hour a day is enough.
Choose something easy and interesting as listening material. You can get some tapes in which English is spoken clearly and not too fast. Then you can move on to some more difficult tapes in normal speed.
Finally, turn to China Radio International and BBC English programmes. They will help you a lot to improve your listening.
Just keep on listening and you will find your way out.
