阅读下列短文,从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中,选出最佳选项。
A
At the end of my senior year of high school,I got a job working at a local coffee shop.I thought the job would be easy and stress-free.I pictured myself pouring the best coffees,making delicious doughnuts (炸面包圈),and becoming friends with regular customers.
I wasn’t expecting the people with enormous orders,the women who complained that the coffee was much too creamy (含乳脂的),or the men who wanted their iced coffees remade again and again until they reached perfection.I couldn’t seem to please anyone.
One rainy day,one of my regular customers came in looking upset.He said he felt like getting in bed,pulling the sheets up over his head,and staying there for a few years.I knew exactly how he felt.
Before he left,I handed him a bag along with his iced coffee.He was surprised,since he hadn’t ordered anything but coffee.I had given him his favourite type of doughnut.
“It’s on me,” I told him.“Have a nice day.”
He smiled and thanked me before heading back out into the rain.
The next day,it was still raining.I spent my afternoon hanging out the window handing people their orders.I was completely wet and freezing cold.Worse,no one was tipping that day.Every time I looked into our empty tip jar,I grew more depressed.
In the evening,the customer from the day before drove up to the window.He handed me a pink rose and a note.He said that not many people took time to care about others and he was glad there were still people like me in the world.With a friendly wave,he drove away.
I ran to the back of the shop and read the note.It read:
Christine,
Thanks for being so sweet,kind and thoughtful yesterday.It is so nice to meet someone who’s indeed nice.Please don’t change your ways! Have a great day!—Hank
After that,whenever I felt depressed or sick of coffee,I thought of Hank and his kindness.Then I would smile,hold my head up high,clear my throat and ask politely,“How can I help you?”

George Grey was born in Lisbon in Portugal on 14 April 1812.After completing his education at the Royal Military College at Sandhurst in England in 1826,Grey went to Ireland with the army.He felt sorry for the Irish people and thought it would improve their lives if they moved to Australia.In 1836 he planned to lead an expedition (远征队) to look for land for a settlement (定居点) in northwest Australia.
He left England on the “Beagle” in July 1837.In Cape Town he took another ship,the “Lynher”,and sailed to the north coast of Western Australia.After landing near Collier Bay his group walked inland.Grey and his men were totally inexperienced and lacked survival skills.The local people were hostile and Grey was injured.It took two weeks before he was well enough to travel.They discovered and named the Glenelg River,Stephen Range and Mount Lyell.The land was not suitable for settlement,so in April they sailed to the island country Mauritius to get some rest.
Grey returned to Australia,and in February 1839 he sailed from Perth to Shark Bay,Western Australia.His team landed with three whaleboats to go northwards.They lost their food when one whaleboat was damaged in a strong storm.They finally reached Shark Bay.They set sail back to Perth but both boats were damaged.After making it to shore with very little food,they began walking to Perth,483 kilometres away.It was hard going in the heat with very little food and water.His men were badly weakened and one died.Grey pushed on ahead and arrived in Perth on 21 April.His men arrived later.He noted the fertile (富饶的) areas south of the Murchison River and people began to settle there in 1850.

The roads that wind along the Seine used to be full of heavy traffic.Today,cyclists are enjoying the waterside peace.On the right bank opposite the Eiffel Tower,cars have been made to travel in a single lane (车道),leaving the other to bicycles.
A sense of being controlled is felt by the capital’s car owners.Anne Hidalgo,the Socialist mayor of Paris,is starting “a war against cars”.
As part of the city hall’s plan to increase the share of trips taken by bicycle from 5% to 15% by 2020,protected cycling lanes are being lengthened along some of the city’s main roads.A whole road on the busy Rue de Rivoli is being changed into a two-way bike route.The left bank’s road was closed to cars in 2013,six years after the city made a bike-sharing plan.
“Paris is not anti-car,but anti-pollution,”says Jean-Louis Missika,the head of planning at the city hall.Pollution levels in the city are especially high.With its narrow streets,the government is trying its best to reduce cars that do not carry passengers.Fully 80% of cars running in central Paris carry only one person,and 79% of those on its roads are privately owned.BlaBlaCar,a French ride-sharing startup,recently introduced BlaBlaLines,a new app produced to help people who travel to and from work share cars.
The war against cars started by Ms Hidalgo is also a rethink of how the city should start an age that will be shaped by electric cars and driverless transport.“It will be as great as the change from horse-drawn carriages to cars,” says Mr Missika.He expects to see the first driverless six-person taxis in Paris next year,and says that city hall will ban privately owned cars in the centre by 2025-2030.
【语篇解读】本文是说明文。巴黎采取一系列措施限制汽车的使用,鼓励人们骑自行车或者拼车出行。这些举措旨在解决巴黎的环境污染问题。
28.What does Paragraph 1 try to show?
A.The modern life of Paris.

A.To avoid car accidents.
B.To encourage bike riding.
C.To make people live a comfortable life.
D.To show the importance of public transport.
答案B
解析推理判断题。由第三段中的“increase the share of trips taken by bicycle”和“protected cycling lanes are being lengthened”以及“is being changed into a two-way bike route”可推断,这些举措主要是为了鼓励人们骑自行车。
30.What is the government doing to reduce pollution according to Paragraph 4?

D
Many of us have become so reliant(依赖的) on our smartphones that we use them to carry out unbelievable 221 tasks every day.
A study of 2,000 smartphone owners shows that the average user reaches for their phone at 7:31 am each morning,to check personal e-mails and Facebook.And before they’ve even got out of bed,most of them check the weather,read the news,and send a text or two to friends.It also appeared that people will check the train times,do their banking and update what they want early in the day.
In an average week,the research discovered that users pick up their phone more than 1,500 times to complete different tasks from e-mails to playing games and posting on social media.And the average smartphone user is on his or her phone for three hours and sixteen minutes a day.This amounts to almost one full day a week using their phone,so it’s no wonder that almost four in ten users admitted feeling lost without their tool.
Many owners also admitted to finding themselves using their phone without realising they’re doing so,with two thirds saying they have managed to log in(登录) and browse(浏览) Facebook without thinking.And surprisingly,four in ten said they have,at one time or another,checked their e-mails automatically(自动地) without thinking.
The study has also showed that our smartphones are now becoming more of a “go-to-gadget”,replacing desktops and laptops,which people only turn to for,on average,140 tasks in a typical day.
【语篇解读】文章从科学调查显示的情况阐述了现在我们对手机的依赖。
32.Tasks carried out on smartphones are about more than those on desktops and laptops.?
A.221 B.140 C.1,500 D.80
答案D
解析细节理解题。根据第一段中提到手机完成的任务为221项及最后一段中的电脑完成的任务为140项,可知答案为D项。
33.What can be inferred from the fourth paragraph?
A.People often use their phone unconsciously.
B.One third managed to browse Facebook without thinking.
C.Half of people checked their e-mails automatically.
D.Six in ten people don’t check their e-mails.
答案A
解析推理判断题。根据这段的叙述“他们使用手机的时候根本没有意识到自己在做什么,2/3的人想都不想,就登录并且浏览脸书网上的信息;令人惊讶的是,2/5的人声称他们曾经想都没想就自动地打开了邮箱,查看邮件”可知,人们经常无意识地玩手机。
34.The underlined word “go-to-gadget” in Paragraph 5 means “ ”.?
A.a funny expression
B.an important study
C.a tool with intelligence
D.an interesting game
答案C
解析词义猜测题。此句意为:我们的智能手机越来越成为一种智力工具,取代了台式电脑和笔记本电脑。根据句意选C项。
35.What’s the best title for the passage?
A.Are we dependent on our smartphones?
B.The functions of smartphones
C.The disadvantages of smartphones
D.Smartphones will take the place of desktops and laptops
答案A
解析主旨大意题。文章首句“Many of us have become so reliant on our smartphones...”便点明了文章主题,后文展开阐述,故答案为A项。

Get a Thorough Understanding of Oneself
In all one’s lifetime,it is oneself that one spends the most time being with or dealing with. 36 ?
When you are going upwards in life you tend to overestimate (高估) yourself.It seems that everything you seek for is within your reach. 37 It’s likely that you think it wise for yourself to stay away from the outer world.Actually,to get a thorough understanding of oneself,you may as well keep the following tips in mind.?
Gain a correct view of oneself.You may look forward hopefully to the future but be sure not to expect too much,for dreams can never be fully realised.You may be courageous to meet challenges but it should be clear to you where to direct your efforts. 38 ?
Self-appreciation.Whether you compare yourself to a high mountain or a small stone,you represent a state of nature. 39 If you earnestly (诚挚地) admire yourself you’ll have a real sense of self-appreciation.?
40 In time of anger,do yourself a favour by releasing (释放) it in a quiet place so that you won’t be hurt by its flames;in time of sadness,do yourself a favour by sharing it with your friends so as to change a bad mood into a cheerful one;in time of tiredness,do yourself a favour by getting a good sleep.?
Get a full control of one’s life.Then one will find one’s life full of colour and flavour.
A.It has its own value.
B.Do oneself a favour when it’s needed.
C.Do yourself a favour when you resist the attack of illness.
D.But it is precisely oneself that one has the least understanding of.
E.Especially if it is well within your reach,you are just too blind to see it.
F.When you are going downhill you tend to underestimate yourself.
G.So long as you have a perfect knowledge of yourself,there won’t be difficulties you can’t overcome.
答案与解析
【语篇解读】本文是一篇议论文。作者向我们提出了彻底了解自己的几点建议:正确认识自己,欣赏自己,善待自己以及充分把握自己的生命。
36.D 本文的标题是“全面了解自己”。上文提到人生在世,和我们相处最久、打交道最多的是我们自己;故D项“但是一个人往往最不了解的恰恰也是自己”与上文话题衔接紧密,也为本文的主旨埋下伏笔。故选D项。
37.F 上文提到“When you are going upwards in life you tend to overestimate yourself.”;故F项“When you are going downhill ...”在此处与上文构成对比,符合语境。故选F项。
38.G 上文提到你可能会勇敢地迎接挑战,但是你必须清楚自己努力的方向;故G项“只要你对自己非常了解,你就没有克服不了的困难”与上文话题衔接紧密,且与本段主旨“正确了解自己”相吻合。故选G项。
39.A 上文提到无论你把自己比作一座高山还是一块石头,你都代表着自己的一种状态;而A项意为“它都有它自己存在的价值”,放在此处符合语境,与上文话题衔接紧密,且与该段小标题“自我欣赏”相照应。故选A项。
40.B 分析文章结构可知,空格处为该段小标题。根据下文三个排比句“In time of anger,do yourself a favour by ... in time of sadness,do yourself a favour by...in time of tiredness,do yourself a favour ...”并通读该段内容可知,B项“必要时请善待自己”概括了该段大意,适合做该段标题。故选B项。

Of course London is our capital city and a 44 place to visit,but my personal 45 is that it is a big grey city with too many people.I think that foreign visitors should really 46 the UK a bit more! Living in Spain,I often have to 47 that there are lots of other beautiful places to visit in my country.There are 48 some impressive historical or architectural features.?
For example,my 49 where I was born in the UK is in the historical city of Chester.In Spain,few people have heard of this city and so I 50 the location by saying it is near Manchester.Yet Chester is a beautiful and 51 city in itself! As it is a Roman city,we have city walls 52 the city centre,Roman ruins and even an amphitheatre (竞技场)! In addition,the 53 of the buildings in the city centre were built in the 1300s.It means that most of the houses and shops are very 54 .?
For these reasons, Chester is a very popular city among Asian and British tourists who want to see the historical sites.The majority of Spaniards don’t seem to 55 it yet!

答案与解析
【语篇解读】本文是一篇记叙文,介绍了苏格拉底的生平、教育理念以及不幸遭遇。
56.their 考查代词。设空处在此表示所属(他们的),故填their。
57.what 考查连接词。设空处引导主语从句,且在从句中作taught的宾语,故填what。
58.hearing 考查动词-ing形式作宾语的用法。be worth doing ...意为“值得做……”。
59.which / that 考查关系代词。设空处引导限制性定语从句修饰先行词knowledge,且在从句中作taught的宾语,故填which / that。
60.In 考查介词。in fact意为“事实上”。
61.caught 考查过去分词作补语的用法。设空处作宾语补足语,因catch与him之间是逻辑上的动宾关系,且其所表示的动作已完成,故填caught。
62.to visit 考查不定式作宾语的用法。be allowed to do sth意为“被允许做某事”。
63.finally 考查副词。设空处作状语修饰从句谓语,表示“最终”,故填finally。
64.tears 考查固定搭配。in tears意为“流泪”。
65.bravest 考查形容词最高级。由设空处前面的the及语境可知,此处应用形容词最高级,故填bravest。

I’m so glad that you’re interested in the Chinese poet Li Bai,and I’d love to tell you what I know about him.
Li Bai is one of the most famous poets of the Tang Dynasty.His poems are so great that he’s known as the “Poetic Genius”.In addition,his poems are full of romance and imagination,such as his most famous one,“A Tranquil Night”.
Li Bai loved freedom very much,which was reflected in his poems.What’s more,he also loved to drink while he was creating poems,and it seemed that drinking was able to inspire him.That’s what I know about Li Bai.Now do you know much more about him?
Yours,

第二节(满分25分)
阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。续写的词数应为150左右。
Mr Brown lived in a house less than two miles away from his office.He was therefore able to drive home every day for lunch.Every time he drove in the middle of the day,he found cars were parked in the road outside his house,and there was no room for his own car.He had to drive two blocks farther before he could find a place to park.Then he had to walk home.This made him very angry.
He had put up a board which read “No Parking!” in the garden facing the road,but nobody seemed to pay attention to it.People only obeyed a police notice,but not a private one.There were no parked cars where there was a blue board with white letters on it:Police Notice—No Parking!?
Mrs Brown suggested that he should steal a police notice.But he dared not,being afraid of going to prison.She then suggested that he make one just like a police notice.He said he was not a policeman and couldn’t use the word “police”.He decided that he must find a way out and started thinking hard.For several days,the smell of paint filled the house.One night he showed his wife a new noticeboard.It was painted in white letters on a blue board:Polite Notice—No Parking!?
“Oh,” Mrs Brown said,“but you told me you weren’t going to use the word ‘police’.That’s exactly like a police notice.”
“Is it?” he asked.“Look again.”
She began to laugh,“You are really rather clever.”
Paragraph 1:
Why did Mrs Brown say her husband was really rather clever??
Paragraph 2:
If the police discovered that the Browns were using a police notice,?
参考范文
Paragraph 1:
Why did Mrs Brown say her husband was really rather clever?Because she found that he had written a notice which looked exactly like a police notice.He made a blue board with white letters on it,but it was not a real police notice.Being afraid of going to prison,Mr Brown certainly dared not use the word “police”,but he used “polite notice” instead of “police notice”.He was quite clever,wasn’t he??
Paragraph 2:
If the police discovered that the Browns were using a police notice,they would feel angry and punish them.It was a crime because he offended the police,passing himself off as a policeman.But Mr Brown remained very calm.He would ask the policeman to look at the board carefully.The policeman would burst out laughing when they realised what had happened.

过去分词作定语
动词-ed形式是动词非谓语形式的一种,是高考英语考查的重点。从性质上讲,动词-ed形式相当于形容词或副词,因此它可以在句中作表语、定语、宾补和状语。下面我们主要就动词-ed形式作定语的用法进行归纳总结。
1.单个的过去分词作定语时一般兼有被动和完成的意义,常作前置定语( preposed attribute )。
terrified people受到惊吓的人们
polluted water被污染的水
a broken cup一个打碎了的杯子
注意:(1)-ed作前置定语时,有时只有被动意义。

I had a lot of teachers that I loved.However,the teacher that I remember most was Mrs Green from Marianna,Florida.She was my 5th grade teacher.Since I was a new student,not only in her class,but at the school,she made my time there much more pleasant.I immediately began to like her.She was really funny and I knew that she liked me.She made learning fun.I remember one day for Christmas holidays,she taught us how to make ornaments (装饰物) from eggs.My parents still have some of the ornaments I made.
She made me leader for many group projects and that made me feel special.I think that would make any child feel special,especially when a child is in a new place with no friends.She made me want to be like that.Not to pick a “favourite” student,but to make every student feel that they are special.That year,I received the Presidential Academic Award (美国总统学术奖).I was really proud and so were my parents.
Looking back at it,I think the reason why I did so well was that I felt important.Students do better when they feel like they are important or loved.Mrs Green always gets to know her students and forms personal relationships with them,which I will try to do some day.I just hope that there will be students who find me to be their favourite teacher as I found her to be mine.

A farmer grew some vegetables in his garden.One day his wife was ill and he had no money.He had to sell some cabbages and carrots in the market.The next morning he took two baskets of vegetables to the town.But it was raining hard that afternoon and there were few people in the street.When his vegetables were sold out,it was dark.He bought some medicine and hurried to his village.
On his way home he saw a person lying on the snow.He placed his baskets on the ground and was going to help the person to get up.At that time he found it was a dead man and there was much blood on his body.He was so afraid that he ran away quickly,without taking the baskets with him.
The next afternoon the farmer was sent to the police station.Having shown the baskets,an officer asked,“Are these yours?” “Yes,sir,” the farmer answered timidly(胆怯地).“Have you killed the man?” “No,no,sir,” the farmer said in a hurry.“When did you see the dead man?”“About seven last evening.” “Did you see who killed the man?” “No,sir.” The officer brought out a knife and asked,“Have you seen it yet?” “No,sir.” The officer became angry and told the policemen to beat him up and sent him into prison.The officer wanted to trap the farmer into the confession(供认),but the farmer didn’t admit he was the murderer.

Paragraph 1:
The officer was so angry that he asked the policeman to beat him up again.The farmer was very afraid.He thought he would be sentenced to death by killing people,but he didn’t;he was innocent.He must tell people the truth,but no one could hear his voice.He hoped that someone could come and save him.
Paragraph 2:
The farmer was lucky.A few days later,a young man came to the police station with a lot of journalists,saying that he saw the murderer.It was the police officer who killed the man on the snow! He saw the police officer used a knife killing the man late in the evening.He was so frightened and ran away.The young man thought the farmer was innocent.So he took the great courage to expose the real criminal.After the investigation,the young man was right.The police officer was sent into prison and the policeman who beat up the farmer was fired,and the brave young man was regarded as the hero by the villagers.

Unit 2 Making a difference
The Story of Florence Nightingale
弗劳伦斯·南丁格尔的故事
Florence Nightingale was born in a rich family in Italy in 1820 and was named Florence after her birthplace.Florence and her sister were educated by their father and private teachers.She did well in her studies.When she grew up,she decided to become a nurse.This decision greatly upset① her family,because at that time nurses in England were looked down upon by people.But she was determined②,and began caring for the sick in hospitals.
In 1854,England was fighting a war with Russia in Turkey.Many British soldiers were wounded or sick.The wounded soldiers lay on the hard floors of a dirty army hospital.In the evening,they tried to sleep,but rats ran over their bodies.The conditions for them were terrible.
Reports of the sufferings③ of the wounded in the front created anger in Britain.The government appointed④ Florence Nightingale to hire⑤female nurses to work in the front.Florence arrived in Crimea with thirty-eight nurses.At first,the doctors did not believe that women could help.But in fact,the nurses did make a difference.By day,nurses cleaned the wards⑥ and cared for the soldiers.At night,Nightingale took a lamp and walked around the hospital attending⑦ the patients.
Florence also wrote home on behalf of the soldiers.In return,she gained the respect of the British soldiers.
Nightingale and the nurses worked around the clock,attending the sick and the wounded,which contributed to the fact that many wounded soldiers survived.The death rate of wounded soldiers fell from 42% to 2.2%.?
Florence returned to Britain as a heroine.Because of her excellent work she was given many awards.With the funds she received,Florence set up a nursing school to train professional nurses.She continued to offer her advice on hospital reform.Nightingale is best known as the founder of the modern profession of nursing.In 1910,at the age of 90,Nightingale closed her eyes forever.And the day of her birth,May 12,has been made International Nurses Day.

【语篇解读】本文是一篇记叙文。主要介绍了主人公希望在毕业的时候他爸爸能将他在展览馆内看中的那辆跑车送给他,他爸爸在他毕业的那天早上给了他一个礼盒,礼盒里面有一本可爱的书,书的最后一页是那辆跑车的钥匙,可是主人公并没有翻到最后一页,便误以为他爸爸只送给他一本书。一年后父亲住院,他发现了真相。
1.A.finding B.proving
C.deciding D.knowing
答案D
解析考查动词词义辨析。此处指“知道他父亲买得起”。对于自己父亲的情况应该用know(知道),不能用find,prove或decide。
2.A.afford B.offer
C.keep D.like
答案A
解析考查动词词义辨析。按照上文及下文的“he told him that was all he wanted”可知他父亲买得起,选A项。offer “自愿提供”,不符合句意。
3.A.Nervous B.Serious
C.Careful D.Curious
答案D
解析考查形容词词义辨析。因为不知道盒子里到底是什么礼物,所以这个年轻人应是充满好奇,D项符合句意。
4.A.packed B.opened
C.picked up D.put aside
答案B
解析考查动词和动词词组辨析。因为东西在盒子里,他想看里边的东西,此处动作只能是打开。pack的含义是“捆,打包”;pick up的含义是“捡起,拿起”;put aside的含义是“放在一边”;open则表示“打开”。
5.A.Angrily B.Eagerly
C.Calmly D.Anxiously
答案A
解析考查副词词义辨析。由前面的disappointed可知,这个年轻人本来想要车,但打开盒子看到的是本书,以及下文的“he raised his voice at his father”可知此处用angrily 来表达不满。
6.A.toasting B.putting
C.forgetting D.leaving
答案D
解析考查动词词义辨析。不想要书,因此把书留下符合语境。表示“留下”应用动词leave,其他三个选项没有此意。
7.A.until B.as
C.before D.unless
答案A
解析考查连词词义辨析。句意为“一整年他都没有联系父亲,直到某一天……”,until符合句意。
8.A.learned B.realised
C.recognised D.admitted
答案B
解析考查动词词义辨析。上文提到有位老人看上去像他父亲,让他 “意识到”应该回家看看了。realise“意识到”,符合句意。
9.A.get to B.search for
C.turn to D.leave for
答案D
解析考查动词词组辨析。此处是“他正要到医院去,这时……”。词组get to的含义是“到达”;search for的含义是“寻找”;turn to的含义是“转向”;而leave for则有“出发到……去”的含义,符合句意。
10.A.much B.still
C.hardly D.only
答案B
解析考查副词词义辨析。此处为离开一整年了,而那本书仍旧是新的。四个选项中still有“仍然”的含义,符合句意。
11.A.year B.month
C.week D.day
答案A
解析考查名词词义辨析。由第三段第一句可知,年轻人有一年没和父亲联系,因此此处为one year。
12.A.clean B.read
C.turn D.count
答案C
解析考查动词词义辨析。由后面的“pages”和一把车钥匙从里面掉出可以推断此处为“翻书页”的意思。动词turn有“翻,转”的含义。
13.A.lost B.came
C.appeared D.dropped
答案D
解析考查动词词义辨析。这个年轻人在翻书,因此钥匙会从书中掉出,drop符合句意。
14.A.old B.same
C.special D.new
答案B
解析考查形容词词义辨析。此处表示“标签上销售商的名字正是他一直想要拥有的那辆跑车的销售商的名字”,same符合句意。
15.A.remembered B.desired
C.found D.met
答案B
解析考查动词词义辨析。根据上下文可知此处是父亲给他买的就是他“想要的”那辆跑车。desire的含义是“想要”;remember是“记住”;find的含义是“发现”;meet的含义是“遇见”。

答案与解析
【语篇解读】本文是一篇记叙文,作者记叙了自己登上乞力马扎罗山的经历。
1.flew 考查时态。本文描述的是发生在过去的动作,因此用一般过去时。
2.an 考查冠词。8-hour读音是以元音音素开头的,并且这里表示“一个8小时的旅程”,因此用an。
3.were introduced 考查语态。“我们”是被介绍给别人的,因此用被动语态。
4.who 考查关系代词。非限制性定语从句,先行词表示人,因此用who。
5.his 考查代词。“他的家庭”用形容词性物主代词his。
6.more 考查比较级。此处表示“更多的”,因此用more。
7.walking 考查非谓语动词。动词-ing形式作伴随状语。
8.memories 考查名词复数。 “one of+复数名词”表示“……之一”。
9.after 考查固定短语。look after照顾,照料。
10.deeply 考查副词。副词修饰形容词thankful。

Dolly Parton,the fourth of twelve children,was born in a small house in Tennessee.She came into the world on January 19th,1946,and the doctor who delivered (接生) her,Robert F.Thomas,was only paid with a bag of corn.Of course,the doctor did not know what the future might hold for this little girl.
At the age of ten,Dolly appeared on a TV show in Knoxville,Tennessee.In 1957,she took a bus to Lake Charles,Louisiana,where she made her first record,“Puppy Love”.A year later,she made her first public appearance at Nashville’s country music hall,but not as a singer:she played the drums with the Sevier High School Marching Band.
Dolly loved Nashville! However,she was still in high school,so she couldn’t go there often.She had to work long and hard before graduating in 1964.The day after the graduation ceremony,she achieved her first big dream:“I graduated from high school on a Friday night and left early on a Saturday morning for Nashville.”
In 1967,she began to write lots of popular songs.She appeared on television shows,and received prizes for her music,all very quickly.Her looks and sense of humour made her a natural for the movies.In 1980,she appeared in her first movie Nine to Five,playing a secretary.Dolly wrote and sang the film’s theme (主题) song,and it was the most popular song of 1981.
Later on,Dolly Parton opened Dollywood,a large theme park near her hometown;she bought the local radio station and moved it to Dollywood.She also began a programme that promises a college scholarship (奖学金) to every student who graduates from the high schools in her home county.
It’s clear why Dolly is still popular after all these years.
【语篇解读】 本文讲述了Dolly Parton是如何成功、成名的。

A.corn was priceless B.the doctor loved corn
C.corn meant good luck D.Dolly’s family was poor

a.She opened a large theme park.
b.She graduated from high school.

解析细节理解题。由文章内容可知,事件c发生在1957年;事件b发生在1964年;事件d发生在1967年;事件e发生在1980年;事件a发生在1981年以后,故选择A项。

Now many young people are travelling around the world on their own,not because they have no one to travel with,but because they prefer to go alone.
Kristina Wegscheider from California first travelled alone when she was at college and believed that it was something everyone should do at least once in their life.She said,“It opens your mind to new things and pushes you out of your comfort zone.” Wegscheider has visited 46 countries covering all seven continents.
In foreign countries,with no one to help you read a map,look after you if you get ill,or lend you money if your wallet is stolen,it is challenging.This is what drives young people to travel alone.It is seen as character building and a chance to prove that they can make it on their own.
Chris decided to leave his sales job in Australia to go travelling last year.He set up a website,The Aussie Nomad,to document his adventures.He said he wished he had travelled alone earlier.“The people you meet,the places you visit,or the things you do,everything is up to you and it forces you to grow as a person,” said the man.
Chris describes travelling alone as “a shot in the arm”,which makes you a more confident person that is ready to deal with anything.He said,“The feeling of having overcome something on my own is a major part of what drives me each day when I’m dealing with a difficult task.I walk around with my head up because I know deep down inside that nothing is impossible if you try.”
As the saying goes,“Only by going alone in silence can one truly get into the heart of the wilderness.”
【语篇解读】这是一篇说明文。本文通过讲述几个年轻人的例子,说明人们一生之中应该至少有一次独自旅行的经历。
5.Which of the following will Kristina Wegscheider agree with?
A.Travelling abroad helps people to find new things.
B.It is more meaningful to travel in foreign countries.
C.It is comfortable to travel around without a friend.
D.Travelling alone is a necessary experience for everyone.
答案D
解析推理判断题。根据第二段第一句“Kristina Wegscheider from California first travelled alone when she was at college and believed that it was something everyone should do at least once in their life.”可知,来自加利福尼亚的Kristina Wegscheider在大学时第一次独自旅行,并且认为这是每个人一生中应该至少做一次的事。所以她认为独自旅行是必需的。故选D项。
6.Travelling alone is challenging because .?
A.you have to choose things on your own
B.it is hard for you to prove yourself to others
C.you can only depend on yourself whatever happens
D.it pushes you into the comfort zone
答案C
解析推理判断题。根据第三段第一句“In foreign countries,with no one to help you read a map,look after you if you get ill,or lend you money if your wallet is stolen,it is challenging.”可知,在外国,在没有人帮助的情况下看地图,如果你生病的话没有人照顾你或者如果你的钱包丢了没有人借给你钱,这是具有挑战的事情。因此独自旅行具有挑战性是因为一切都要依靠你自己。故选C项。
7.What can we know about Chris?
A.He started travelling alone at an early age.
B.He once was afraid of travelling.
C.He used to work as a salesman.
D.His website inspires others a lot.
答案C
解析细节理解题。根据第四段第一句话“Chris decided to leave his sales job in Australia to go travelling”可知,Chris决定辞去他在澳大利亚的销售工作去旅行。由此可知Chris曾经是一名销售员。故选C项。
8.What is the best title for the passage?
A.Travel Abroad B.Travel Alone
C.Travel Light D.Travel Far
答案B
解析主旨大意题。通读全文,这篇文章主要通过几个年轻人的例子说明人们一生之中应该至少有一次独自旅行的经历。故选B项。

My mother has been teaching math at a middle school in my hometown.She goes to work early in the morning and does not return home until late in the afternoon. 2 She treats them with patience and teaches them well.For her excellent quality and very good teaching results,she has been elected as a model teacher several times.?
3 Every day,when she comes back home from work,she sets about doing housework,sweeping the living room and bedrooms or cleaning the furniture,and putting everything in good order.She seems to be busy all the time.As she has been very busy working every day,she looks older than her age.But she looks as cheerful and happy as ever.Mother never buys expensive dresses for herself,but she often buys some inexpensive but high quality clothes for us. 4 She just eats a plain meal outside when she is too busy to cook herself.She lives a busy yet simple life,without any complaints.?
Often she says to us,“Work while you work,and play while you play.That is the way to be happy and gay.If you do not work,you will become lazy and be of no use to society”.What a piece of good advice this is! 5 This advice of hers will always serve as a guide to my behaviour.My mother is great indeed,and I always feel proud of her.?
A.She enjoys listening to classical music.
B.As a mother,she takes good care of us and gives us every comfort.
C.She loves her students and cares for them.
D.She never goes to expensive restaurants to enjoy meals.
E.My mother is hard-working and never wastes money.

G.Can you tell us something about your mother?
答案与解析
【语篇解读】本文介绍了我妈妈的性格特点,作为老师她工作努力,作为妈妈她能够用心照顾家庭,教育孩子,给孩子树立良好的榜样。
1.B 根据前一句“As a teacher,she works hard.”可知接下来应该描述作为妈妈,她的做法。故B项符合上下文。
2.C 根据下句“She treats them with patience and teaches them well.”可知这部分描述她对待学生的情况,故C项符合上下文的语境。
3.E 根据下文“she sets about doing housework,sweeping the living room and bedrooms or cleaning the furniture,and putting everything in good order.”和“she often buys some inexpensive but high quality clothes for us”可知妈妈又努力又节约。故E项正确。
4.D 根据下句“She just eats a plain meal outside”可知妈妈只吃一些很平常的饭菜,不到高档场所去消费。故D项正确。
5.F 根据前一句“What a piece of good advice this is!”可知我认为妈妈这个建议非常好,我永远都会记住。故F项符合上下文。
