在电影制作初期，人们就开始使用动物作为演员，但有时会伤害动物。The American Humane Association在保护电影制作中的动物方面一直在努力。
Animals have been used，and sometimes abused，in movie-making since the early days of the industry.However, the American Humane Association has worked for many years to protect animals in films.And，the digital age might make animal actors unnecessary.
The film Dolphin Tale tells about a dolphin that loses her tail because of an injury from a crab-trap.A doctor provides her with an artificial(人造的) tail that saves her life.The film is based on a real event.And the star of the film, Winter, is a real dolphin that lost her tail.The American Humane Society worked with the movie’s makers to make sure Winter stayed safe and healthy during filming.The animal protection group does this for all animal actors in America.
A thick book of rules and guidelines tells Hollywood moviemakers how to treat animals.Karen Rosa
leads the American Humane Society’s film and television group.He said，“Everything from the smallest insect to the largest mammal(哺乳动物) shall be protected.We believe that for the sake of entertainment, everybody should go home alive.”
This was not always the policy in the early days of film.In 1939，a horse was forced off a mountain，falling to his death，in the movie Jesse James.The next year, guidelines were established to guarantee safe and healthy conditions for animals in movies.
The film Rise of the Planet of the Apes tells about the creation of super intelligent apes(猿) through science.However，no real animals were among the performers.Computer generated imagery provided the chimpanzees，gorillas and orangutans that movie goers see.Clare Richardson is the president of the Diane Fossey Gorilla Fund.She says computer generated imagery should decrease the use of animals in the film industry.She praises moviemakers for the use of computer-made animals.

全球重要的电影节
主持人：欢迎来到我们每周一期的节目《魅力电影》。我们今天的嘉宾是来自六个主要国际电影节的代表，这些发言人将与我们聊聊他们各自代表的电影节。在演播室和我们一起的嘉宾有：来自戛纳电影节的伊莎贝尔·罗丝，来自柏林国际电影节的汉茨·穆勒，来自圣丹斯电影节的凯西·巴恩斯，来自威尼斯电影节的玛丽亚·贝拉，来自多伦多国际电影节的迈克·泰勒，还有来自上海国际电影节的徐立。欢迎各位！玛丽亚，给我们谈谈威尼斯电影节吧。
Maria：Well, I think it is rather appropriate for me to begin our discussion.⑤ The Venice Film Festival is the oldest film festival in the world. It is an annual festival that began in 1932. Our festival is part of a larger festival which applauds⑥ contemporary art⑦. We view film as⑧ a particular type of contemporary art.
Host：Kathy, please tell us about the Sundance Film Festival.
Kathy：Unlike⑨ the Venice Film Festival, the Sundance Film Festival only includes small, independent films. That is, the main criterion⑩ for being included is that the film must not be financed? by Hollywood studios.
Maria：Kathy, I don’t like to argue, but in defence of? the Venice Film Festival, I have to point out that we don’t just have Hollywood films. Our policy is to include high－quality films, regardless of who makes them. We make no restrictions? on the kinds of films we show?—as long as a film’s quality meets our standards, we include it.
⑤It is appropriate for sb. to do sth. 表示“做某事对某人来说是合适的”。
⑥applaud v. 鼓掌；称赞；赞许；赞赏
⑦which applauds contemporary art 是which引导的定语从句，修饰a larger festival。
⑧view...as... 把……看作……
⑨unlike prep. 不像
⑩criterion [kraI'tI?rI?n] n. (评判的)标准，准则，原则，复数形式为criteria。
?finance ['faIn?ns] vt. 给……提供经费
n. 财政，金融；资金

make no restrictions on 对……不作限制
?we show 是省略了引导词that/which的定语从句，修饰films。
玛丽亚：好的，我想让我来开始我们的讨论再合适不过。威尼斯电影节是世界上历史最悠久的电影节。它始于1932年，每年举办一次。我们的电影节是一个规模更大的赞赏当代艺术的文化节的组成部分。我们认为电影是当代艺术的一种特殊形式。
主持人：凯西，请告诉我们有关圣丹斯电影节的情况吧。
凯西：与威尼斯电影节不同，圣丹斯电影节的入选影片只包括小型的独立制作的影片，也就是说，影片入选的主要标准就是必须没有受到好莱坞制片厂的资助。
玛丽亚：凯西，我不想争论，但为了捍卫威尼斯电影节，我必须指出我们不只有好莱坞电影。我们的政策是囊括高质量的电影，不考虑是谁制作了它们。我们对我们所展出的影片种类没有限制——只要电影的质量达到了我们的标准，就能参加评选。
Kathy：The Sundance Film Festival deliberately? boycotts? all Hollywood films, and we don’t foresee ever including them. The initial idea for our festival was hatched? back in 1978, when it was known as the Utah/US Film Festival?. However, it was not well known until 1981. It was then that Robert Redford became its sponsor? and changed the focus to independent films?， often made on very modest budgets. It was given its new name—the Sundance Film Festival—in 1991. Redford has acted in and directed many big Hollywood films, but wanted to expose the public to films made outside of the Hollywood system that ordinary people might have no access to otherwise. Nowadays, if a film wins an award at Sundance, there is a good chance it will become famous!
Isabel：Cannes is another festival that can make films famous. Many films are first shown to the public at the Cannes Film Festival, and if a film wins, everyone will hear about it. I think it is fair to say that Cannes is the most famous and exciting festival.
Hanz：I hate to contradict you, but in recent years, the Cannes Film Festival has shown special favour to American films. Some people remark that it has taken a step backwards, and is beginning to resemble the Academy Awards in Hollywood too much.
?deliberately [dI'lIb?r?tlI] adv. 故意地
?boycott ['b?Ik?t] vt. 拒绝购买(或使用、参加)，抵制
?hatch [h?t?] vt. & vi. 策划，(尤指)密谋；孵化，孵出

remark v. 评论，议论
take a step 迈出一步，采取措施

凯西：圣丹斯电影节一贯刻意抵制所有的好莱坞影片，我们预期今后也不会让它们参展。我们电影节的最早想法诞生于1978年，当时它被称为犹他州/美国电影节。但是它直到1981年才广为人知。那时罗伯特·雷德福成为电影节的赞助商，他将电影节的重点转移到独立制作的影片，这些影片往往依靠非常有限的预算制作。1991年，电影节被重新命名为圣丹斯电影节。雷德福曾出演并执导过许多好莱坞大片，但是他希望让大众接触好莱坞之外的影片，否则一般人可能无从看到这些影片。现在，如果一部电影在圣丹斯节上获奖，那么它就很有可能出名！
伊莎贝尔：戛纳电影节是另一个可以让电影成名的电影节。许多电影都是在戛纳电影节上首次向公众放映，如果一部影片在戛纳电影节上获奖，那么人人都会知道它。我认为可以公平地说，戛纳电影节是知名度最高、最激动人心的电影节。
汉茨：我不想反对你，但是近几年，戛纳电影节对美国电影情有独钟。一些人评论说它在退步，而且开始太多地模仿好莱坞的奥斯卡金像奖。
Isabel：Well, yes, films shown at Cannes are often made with large budgets, and have well－known actors and directors. Many of them are American, but we reject the idea that we have lost our edge as the best international film festival in the world. We always show a broad range of films from many different countries. In fact, the Cannes Film Festival was started in 1939 because many people felt the Venice Film Festival was giving awards to only German and Italian films.
Hanz：Well, in my opinion, the Berlin International Film Festival is one of the most international of all the film festivals. Since it began in 1951, we have given awards to films from all around the globe. At our festival, Hollywood films are in the minority, while films that are likely to be overlooked at other festivals, for example at Cannes, have a real chance of becoming champions.
with large budgets 有很大的预算
a family budget 家庭预算
edge [ed?] n. (微弱的)优势；边缘；刀刃
on the edge of 在……的边缘
that we have lost our edge...是that引导的同位语从句，解释说明idea的具体内容。
broad [br??d] adj. 各种各样的，广泛的；宽阔的，广阔的；概括的
board n. 董事会，委员会；木板
in the minority 占少数
while 在此处作并列连词，表示对比，意思是“然而”。
be likely to do... 很可能做……
It is likely that... 很可能……
overlook [???v?'l?k] vt. 忽略，未注意到；不予理会；俯视
that are likely to be overlooked...是that引导的定语从句，修饰films，其中that在从句中作主语。
伊莎贝尔：嗯，是这样的，戛纳电影节展出的电影通常都有大预算，有知名演员和导演。其中许多都是美国影片，但我们不接受这种观点——我们已经丧失了我们作为最佳国际电影节的优势。我们一直都在展映来自许多不同国家风格迥异的影片。事实上，戛纳电影节创立于1939年，就是因为当时许多人觉得威尼斯电影节只给德国和意大利电影颁奖。
汉茨：嗯，我认为，柏林国际电影节是所有电影节中最国际化的电影节之一。自从1951年创办以来，我们已为来自全球各地的影片颁奖。在我们的电影节上，好莱坞影片只占少数，而在其他电影节(例如戛纳电影节)上可能被忽视的影片则有真正夺魁的机会。
Mike：I’m the spokesman for the Toronto International Film Festival, which began in 1976 and soon became one of the major film festivals around the world. Each year, famous actors, actresses and directors come to Toronto, and the entire film world pays attention to who wins. It is the second largest festival in the world—only Cannes is bigger. We show films from many countries, though we do give some special awards to Canadian films.
Xu Li：I represent the Shanghai International Film Festival. Our festival was founded in 1993, so we are perhaps the youngest festival. Even though we have only existed a short time, our festival has a good reputation worldwide. We have entries from many different countries and give the ‘Jinjue’ Award, or Golden Cup Award, to the film that we think is the best.
which began in 1976 and ... 是which 引导的非限制性定语从句，修饰the Toronto International Film Festival。
do 强调了谓语动词 give。
have a good reputation 有好的声誉
earn a reputation 赢得声誉
live up to one’s reputation 名副其实
entry ['entrI] n. 参赛作品；进入，加入；条目，词条
that we think is the best是that引导的定语从句，修饰the film，其中we think是插入语。
迈克：我是多伦多国际电影节的发言人。多伦多国际电影节创立于1976年，很快就成为了世界最重要的电影节之一。每年，著名的演员和导演都会来到多伦多，整个电影世界都会注意谁获奖。它是世界上第二大电影节——仅次于戛纳电影节。我们的电影节展播许多国家的影片，不过我们的确颁发一些特别奖给加拿大电影。
徐立：我代表上海国际电影节。我们的电影节创立于1993年，因此我们可能是最年轻的电影节。尽管存在的时间短，我们的电影节却在全世界享有很好的声誉。我们有许多不同的国家送展的影片，并为我们认为是最佳的影片颁发金爵奖或金杯奖。

Buying folk art paintings has been a passion of mine.I found some pieces recently.The problem was that I could only afford one and I was having trouble in deciding which one to buy.
The first painting was a work of Bill Dodge.He created it in 1962 and named it First Trolley To Van Nuys.The painting shows the center of a town, with a lot of people in the windows and on the street.
Thomas Chambers is one of America’s most famous folk artists.The painting of him shows a fishing scene with villagers and boats.It may have great value in the future.But it doesn’t suit my taste.
Another folk art piece was painted by Rev.Howard Finster in 1988.It is titled Howard in 1944.The smile on this portrait is very engaging(迷人的) and it makes me smile just as big.
Alligator Fisher is a folk art painting created in 1940.The blue of the bayou(海湾) is very calming and the trees give it a very Southern feel.There is a house in the painting and I like this one very much.It reminds me of Louisiana, where I was born.
A Letter from My Mother is one that I found during a journey.The look on the girl’s face is so serious and sad.The painting itself is great; it just makes me feel sad.I had no idea where this folk art painting should hang.
At last, I decided to buy the one that can give me a good mood every day.What is more important than a good mood?

Everyone needs entertainment to take their minds away from the boring chores of everyday life.This entertainment can be in the form of music, movies, plays and various other activities.The most common forms of entertainment are movies, which are watched by people of all ages.
Movies are entertaining, but some movies can have a negative effect on their audience.Little children may watch animated movies(动画片)on their favorite superheroes who do supernatural things, or on some other characters they admire, like Mickey Mouse who does all sorts of things that are not possible in real life.These movies can lead children into thinking that they too can do all these things.
Many of the young people may like watching action movies, and the violence in these movies also has an effect on their minds.It makes them think more about violence and extremism, and may lead them into committing crimes and other acts that can hurt others.These young people may watch their favorite actors do other things that are disliked in society.Their favorite actors and characters may take drugs, like smoking cigarettes in their shows and movies, which negatively influences the young audience and they may begin smoking too, or they may think that it is “cool” or it will raise their social status.
Although some movies have a negative effect on their audience, others may have a positive effect too.There are many educational movies out there that are informative.These movies are very few in number as compared to other movies that are not as informative.These movies are not liked by the young audience.

As Antarctic ice continues to melt at an alarming rate, scientists warn that the well-being of penguins native to the area is becoming increasingly threatened.
According to a new report, the welfare and existence of at least half of the world’s 18 penguin species will be badly affected if the warming of the Antarctic Peninsula continues. Experts say that a big part of the problem is related to food：Less ice means less krill(磷虾), a cornerstone(基石) of the Antarctic ecosystem and a mainstay of a penguin’s diet.
“When you look at all penguins they are largely in trouble，” said Oxford University penguinologist Tom Hart, who spends a few months every year observing penguins along the Antarctic coast.“We’re so concerned because we’re seeing great changes to their populations. They’re probably not going to go extinct anytime soon, but the environment is changing very fast.”
Emperor penguins, Adelies and chinstraps, for example, live entirely in the Antarctic. According to the International Union for Conservation of Nature(IUCN), both emperor penguins and Adelies are considered “near threatened”. Even populations of chinstraps, not usually considered a vulnerable(易危的) species, have “declined by up to 50 percent in the last 30 years”， Hart said. “The general public doesn’t realize that penguin populations are declining so fast.”
In an interview with the BBC, Professor Hart warned that emperor penguins could face near-extinction by the end of the century if global warming continued at its present rate.
“Regardless of their environmental preferences, we see a connection between climate change and penguin populations through the loss of habitat of their main food source，” Dr. Wayne Trivelpiece, the report’s lead author said. “As warming continues, the loss of krill will have a far-reaching effect throughout the Antarctic ecosystem.”
Since krill feed on phytoplankton(浮游植物) that grow under ice cover, warming waters and disappearing sea ice have contributed to decreasing Antarctic krill populations. According to Al Jazeera, other recent studies have shown that krill in the Southern Ocean may have declined by about 80 percent since the 1970s.
“Simply put, without krill, most of the life forms in the Antarctic would disappear，” National Geographic said.

1．What problem will penguins face?
A．Loss of habitat. B．A shortage of food.
C．Population increase. D．Colder environment.
B 解析：细节理解题。由第二段中的“a big part of the problem is related to food：Less ice means less krill(磷虾)... penguin’s diet”可知，由于南极冰层的持续融化，企鹅将面临的问题主要与食物有关，冰少了意味着磷虾少了，磷虾是南极洲生态系统的基石，也是企鹅的主要食物。
2．What is Tom Hart’s attitude toward the penguins’ situation?
A．Uncaring. B．Optimistic.
C．Doubtful. D．Worried.
D 解析：观点态度题。由第三段中的“they are largely in trouble”和“We’re so concerned because we’re seeing great changes to their populations...the environment is changing very fast”可知，牛津大学的企鹅研究专家Tom Hart对企鹅的现状非常担忧。
3．Why does the author mention chinstraps in Paragraph 4?
A．To blame human beings’ unawareness.
B．To underline the dangers penguins face.
C．To give an example of an extinct species.
D．To show how penguins react to global warming.
B 解析：推理判断题。由第四段中的“Even populations of chinstraps, not usually considered a vulnerable(易危的) species, have ‘declined by up to 50 percent in the last 30 years’，”可知，帽带企鹅并非易危物种，但是它们的数量在过去的30年里也下降了50%；由此可知，作者提到帽带企鹅的数量大幅下降，是为了强调企鹅的处境非常危险，气候变暖给它们的生存带来极大的影响。
4．What do the last two paragraphs suggest?
A．Krill loss may have disastrous results.
B．Warming waters bring more phytoplankton.
C．Sea ice disappearance causes krill’s overproducing.
D．Phytoplankton are a key diet of Antarctic creatures.
A 解析：推理判断题。由倒数第二段中的“warming waters and disappearing sea ice have contributed to decreasing Antarctic krill populations”以及最后一段中的“without krill, most of the life forms in the Antarctic would disappear”可知，气候变暖使得南极的冰层融化，这导致磷虾的数量锐减，而如果没有磷虾，南极大部分生命都会消失。

Thomas Chambers is one of America’s most famous folk artists.The painting of him shows a fishing scene with villagers and boats.It may have great value in the future.But it doesn’t suit my taste.

Everyone needs entertainment to take their minds away from the boring chores of everyday life.This entertainment can be in the form of music, movies, plays and various other activities.The most common forms of entertainment are movies, which are watched by people of all ages.
Movies are entertaining, but some movies can have a negative effect on their audience.Little children may watch animated movies(动画片)on their favorite superheroes who do supernatural things, or on some other characters they admire, like Mickey Mouse who does all sorts of things that are not possible in real life.These movies can lead children into thinking that they too can do all these things.
Many of the young people may like watching action movies, and the violence in these movies also has an effect on their minds.It makes them think more about violence and extremism, and may lead them into committing crimes and other acts that can hurt others.These young people may watch their favorite actors do other things that are disliked in society.Their favorite actors and characters may take drugs, like smoking cigarettes in their shows and movies, which negatively influences the young audience and they may begin smoking too, or they may think that it is “cool” or it will raise their social status.
Although some movies have a negative effect on their audience, others may have a positive effect too.There are many educational movies out there that are informative.These movies are very few in number as compared to other movies that are not as informative.These movies are not liked by the young audience.

As Antarctic ice continues to melt at an alarming rate, scientists warn that the well-being of penguins native to the area is becoming increasingly threatened.
According to a new report, the welfare and existence of at least half of the world’s 18 penguin species will be badly affected if the warming of the Antarctic Peninsula continues. Experts say that a big part of the problem is related to food：Less ice means less krill(磷虾), a cornerstone(基石) of the Antarctic ecosystem and a mainstay of a penguin’s diet.
“When you look at all penguins they are largely in trouble，” said Oxford University penguinologist Tom Hart, who spends a few months every year observing penguins along the Antarctic coast.“We’re so concerned because we’re seeing great changes to their populations. They’re probably not going to go extinct anytime soon, but the environment is changing very fast.”
Emperor penguins, Adelies and chinstraps, for example, live entirely in the Antarctic. According to the International Union for Conservation of Nature(IUCN), both emperor penguins and Adelies are considered “near threatened”. Even populations of chinstraps, not usually considered a vulnerable(易危的) species, have “declined by up to 50 percent in the last 30 years”， Hart said. “The general public doesn’t realize that penguin populations are declining so fast.”
In an interview with the BBC, Professor Hart warned that emperor penguins could face near-extinction by the end of the century if global warming continued at its present rate.
“Regardless of their environmental preferences, we see a connection between climate change and penguin populations through the loss of habitat of their main food source，” Dr. Wayne Trivelpiece, the report’s lead author said. “As warming continues, the loss of krill will have a far-reaching effect throughout the Antarctic ecosystem.”
Since krill feed on phytoplankton(浮游植物) that grow under ice cover, warming waters and disappearing sea ice have contributed to decreasing Antarctic krill populations. According to Al Jazeera, other recent studies have shown that krill in the Southern Ocean may have declined by about 80 percent since the 1970s.
“Simply put, without krill, most of the life forms in the Antarctic would disappear，” National Geographic said.
【解题导语】 本文是一篇说明文。南极洲的冰层因气候变暖持续融化，这已严重影响到企鹅的生存。

D 解析：观点态度题。由第三段中的“they are largely in trouble”和“We’re so concerned because we’re seeing great changes to their populations...the environment is changing very fast”可知，牛津大学的企鹅研究专家Tom Hart对企鹅的现状非常担忧。
3．Why does the author mention chinstraps in Paragraph 4?
A．To blame human beings’ unawareness.
B．To underline the dangers penguins face.
C．To give an example of an extinct species.
D．To show how penguins react to global warming.
B 解析：推理判断题。由第四段中的“Even populations of chinstraps, not usually considered a vulnerable(易危的) species, have ‘declined by up to 50 percent in the last 30 years’，”可知，帽带企鹅并非易危物种，但是它们的数量在过去的30年里也下降了50%；由此可知，作者提到帽带企鹅的数量大幅下降，是为了强调企鹅的处境非常危险，气候变暖给它们的生存带来极大的影响。
4．What do the last two paragraphs suggest?
A．Krill loss may have disastrous results.
B．Warming waters bring more phytoplankton.
C．Sea ice disappearance causes krill’s overproducing.
D．Phytoplankton are a key diet of Antarctic creatures.
A 解析：推理判断题。由倒数第二段中的“warming waters and disappearing sea ice have contributed to decreasing Antarctic krill populations”以及最后一段中的“without krill, most of the life forms in the Antarctic would disappear”可知，气候变暖使得南极的冰层融化，这导致磷虾的数量锐减，而如果没有磷虾，南极大部分生命都会消失。

1．the 解析：考查定冠词。形容词的最高级前面应用定冠词，故填the。
2．disappointed 解析：考查形容词作定语的用法。设空处作定语修饰mother，表示“失望的”，故填disappointed。
3．than 解析：考查连词。由more pleasure可知此处表示比较，故填than。

7．Considered 解析：考查过去分词作状语的用法。设空处作状语，因consider与Pygmalion之间是逻辑上的动宾关系，故填Considered。
8．adaptation 解析：考查名词。设空处前面有不定冠词限定，故填adaptation。
9．how 解析：考查宾语从句引导词。设空处引导宾语从句，且在从句中作状语(表程度)，修饰absurd，故填how。
10．changing 解析：考查动词-ing形式作宾语的用法。设空处作介词by的宾语，故填changing。

While encouraging children to do something with rewards of money, toys or even a special activity can be very effective, some experts believe this prevents youngsters from developing their own sense of responsibility.Alfie Kohn, author of Punished by Rewards, believes that giving rewards—even nonmaterial ones—only serves to control youngsters.
But not all experts agree.According to Dr. Virginia Shiller, a psychologist and instructor at the Yale Child Study Center and co-author of the book Rewards for Kids, rewards can help parents teach their children new habits.Shiller says the key is in how the rewards are given.“I was inspired to write this book by my own parenting experience, and I’m happy to say my sons—now in their late 20s—are very responsible people，” says Shiller.
Whether or not to offer rewards is a personal decision.Here are some tips to help your family.
Make rewards fairly immediate.Younger kids may need more immediate goals, while older kids can understand working toward longer-term rewards.Rewards can be small, and they don’t need to be money or a toy.Even a trip to the library or park can be a treat.
Set realistic, specific goals.Don’t try to convert too many things at once.If you try to work on getting to school on time, being nice to siblings(兄弟姐妹) and cleaning up toys all at once, that’s too much.It’s better to target just one or two actions in a particular time.
Make sure there’s not a hidden problem.For example, if your child refuses to go to school, you may want to look into whether there is an unknown problem, such as bullying(欺凌) or a learning problem.
Rethink your requests.Are the tasks you’re asking of your child age-appropriate(合适的) and beneficial？If they are, spend time explaining the value of those actions.
【解题导语】 父母应该给孩子奖励来鼓励他们吗？给孩子奖励时应该注意什么呢？
1．Which of the following statements would Dr.Virginia Shiller agree to?
A．She failed to raise her sons to be responsible men.
B．Children should be given only nonmaterial rewards.
C．Children can benefit if they are properly rewarded.
D．Rewards prevent children from becoming responsible.
C 解析：推理判断题。根据第二段的“rewards can help parents teach their children new habits.Shiller says the key is in how the rewards are given.”可知应选C项。
2．When trying to encourage younger kids to do something, parents should avoid ________．
A．promising a small reward
B．promising a long-term reward
C．promising a nonmaterial reward
D．making rewards fairly immediate
B 解析：细节理解题。根据第四段的“Make rewards fairly immediate...longer-term rewards.”可知应该避免给年纪小的孩子允诺长远的奖励。
3．What does the underlined word “convert” in Paragraph 5 mean?
A．Replace. B．Discover.
C．Exchange. D．Change.
D 解析：词义猜测题。根据画线词后面的“If you try to work on...that’s too much.”并结合选项可知这里是指不要试图一次“改变”很多事情。
4．Which of the following tips is NOT given in the passage?
A．Thinking about hidden problems.
B．Helping children reach their goals.
C．Being realistic when making goals.
D．Thinking if the requests make sense.
B 解析：推理判断题。根据文章内容，可知A、C、D三项的内容都有提到，但并没有说要帮助小孩完成目标。

Food blogs, celebrities, and nutritionists all advocate the benefits of eating organic(有机的) fruits and vegetables. But a new study published in Science Advances paints a more complex picture. While organic produce is likely slightly healthier to eat and, in some ways, more sustainable to grow, there are also downsides．
Organic fruits and vegetables typically cost more than conventional ones. To get a certificate as organic, farmers must meet specific criteria, including growing produce without the use of genetic engineering and chemical inputs. Without these methods, the growing process typically requires more labor, time, and money, a cost that is passed down to consumers.
It’s true that in many ways, organic farming is more sustainable than conventional farming. But when it comes to environmental concerns such as greenhouse gas output and water loss, the comparison gets complex. Organic farms produce less greenhouse gas output per acre. However, because they are barred from using genetic engineering, pesticides(杀虫剂), and other methods that increase efficiency(效率), organic farms also produce an estimated 19% to 25% less yield than conventional farms. While there isn’t a whole lot of research on the topic, the few studies that do exist suggest greenhouse gas output and water loss might actually be higher on organic farms, on a per unit basis, says study author Verena Seufert.
In addition, while organic produce is likely more nutritious than conventional fruits and vegetables, there’s not a lot of evidence to support the claim that these often slight differences influence consumer health. The same is true for the pesticide remainder. In developed countries, where pesticide use is tightly regulated, there’s no scientific consensus on how these often slight differences influence human health.
Still, Seufert stresses that if you can afford to eat organic produce, you should do so. Organic farms provide safer work environments for workers, plus they support great biodiversity. The real takeaway from her study is not that organic produce is bad but that the practice needs more studies to increase the yield without lowering sustainability.
But if you can’t afford to buy organic produce, don’t stress too much, particularly from a nutritional perspective.
【解题导语】 本文是一篇议论文，主要介绍了有机农产品的一些情况。
1．What does the underlined word “downsides” in Paragraph 1 most probably mean?
A．Dangers. B．Drawbacks.
C．Benefits. D．Differences.
B 解析：词义猜测题。根据第一段最后一句“While organic produce is likely slightly healthier to eat and, in some ways, more sustainable to grow, there are also downsides．”可知，虽然有机农产品可能稍微健康些，但在某些方面，也有其缺点。再结合语境和下文陈述的有机农产品的缺点可以判断，画线词应指有机农产品不好的一面，B项意为“缺点”，故B项正确。
2．Which key factor makes it hard to compare organic farming with conventional farming when it comes to environmental concerns?
A．The yield. B．The price.
C．The water loss. D．The labor.
A 解析：推理判断题。根据第三段第二句“But when it comes to environmental concerns such as greenhouse gas output and water loss, the comparison gets complex.”可知，当涉及诸如温室气体排放和水资源损失等环境问题时，比较传统农业和有机农业就困难了；且根据第三段其他内容可知，虽然有机农业与传统农业相比更可持续，但因为不能使用基因工程技术、杀虫剂及其他提高效率的方法，有机农业的产量相对低，故产量是使得两者之间的比较变得困难的重要因素。A项意为“产量”，故A项正确。
3．Which of the following will the author most probably agree with?
A．Farmers’ work environment should be improved.
B．Organic produce should be made more efficiently.
C．It isn’t wise for consumers to buy organic products.
D．The pesticide remainder do no harm to people’s health.
B 解析：推理判断题。根据第三段第四句可知，由于禁止使用基因工程技术和杀虫剂等，有机农场的产量估计会比传统农场的产量低19%至25%。据此可以判断，应当提高有机农业的生产效率，故B项正确。第五段的最后一句亦是提示。
4．In the author’s opinion, why should we support organic produce?
A．It’s environmentally friendly.
B．It’s more nutritious.
C．It helps keep the variety of plants.
D．It’s safer for consumers.
C 解析：推理判断题。根据第五段第二句“Organic farms provide safer work environments for workers, plus they support great biodiversity.”可知，有机农场为工人提供更安全的工作环境，而且有机农场有助于保持生物多样性。据此可以判断，我们应当提倡有机农产品的原因之一是能保持生物的多样性，故C项正确。

A group of foreign residents married to Japanese talked about their children’s names.
Nicole Despres
Students services manager, 40(American)
We have no intention to live outside Japan so it made sense for the kids to take my Japanese husband’s family name. However, we did want to have a Western name too, so all three of them now have both a Western and Japanese name. We agreed there would be no strange names, spelling or unusual kanji(Chinese characters in the Japanese language). All names had to be easy to say and familiar in both Japanese and English.
John McCracken
Company general manager, 27(American)
My son’s name is Aiden. In part because my wife and I met in university and as she was studying Irish history and I have some links to Scotland and Ireland, I wanted a unique Gaelic(盖尔族的)name. We settled for Aiden as we found kanji that can be used in Japan that means “legendary hero”.
Paula Murakami
College women’s Association of Japan, 53(American)
My husband was very excited about choosing names, so I decided to let him choose. He wanted their first names to be Japanese and camp up with names that included the kanji character in his own name. Our boys, Hiroki and Kenta, never had any problems while living on the U．S. West Coast with Japanese names, and I think both as children and as adults, they love their names.
Jeff Ruiz
Recording engineer, 42(Mexican)
My son’s name is Lenny. My wife chose it together with me as we were looking for a name that works in both worlds—mine in Mexico, and hers in Japan—and the name Lenny is common everywhere. In Japanese we write the name in katakana as that is easy for Japanese people who seem to like names in two or three characters.
【解题导语】 本文是一篇说明文。文章主要说明了和日本人结婚的外国居民告诉我们他们都是怎么给孩子起名字的。
5.What do we know about the people mentioned in the passage?
A．Nicole and her husband had an agreement on how to name the children.
B．Jeff will remain in Japan as his wife is not used to Mexican life.
C．The four couples have decided to live with the children in Japan forever.
D．Paula and her family would love to live on the U．S.West Coast.
A 解析：细节理解题。根据Nicole Despres部分：We have no intention to live outside Japan so it made sense for the kids to take my Japanese husband’s family name.However, we did want to have a Western name too, so all three of them now have both a Western and Japanese name.We agreed there would be...可以得知，主语都是“we”说明夫妻俩就取名字这件事情持有一致的看法，答案选A。
6．Which of the following does the underlined word “katakana” mean?
A．A Japanese system of grammar.
B．A way of writing names in Japanese language.
C．A Japanese word which means “name”．
D．A name popular with Japanese people.
B 解析：词义猜测题。根据Jeff Ruiz部分： In Japanese we write the name in katakana as that is easy for Japanese people who seem to like names in two or three characters.可知katakana是用日文写名字的一种方式，故答案为B。
7．What can we infer from the passage?
A．Nicole and her Japanese husband have a daughter and two sons.
B．Paula has little say in making a decision at home.
C．John’s wife is Irish and the couple have only one child.
D．Lenny is a name familiar to Japanese when written in the Japanese way.
D 解析：推理判断题。根据Jeff Ruiz部分： ...and the name Lenny is common everywhere.In Japanese we write the name in katakana as that is easy for Japanese people who seem to like names in two or three characters.可知，Jeff Ruiz和妻子选择了“the name Lenny is common everywhere”一个世界各地都普遍使用的名字，那么写成日语后按理也应该是一个很普遍常用的名字，故答案为D。
8．Which would be the best title for the passage?
A．Is a Western Name Better than a Japanese Name?
B．Why does Your Child Have Two Names?
C．How do You Choose Your Child’s Name?
D．Can You Settle Differences in Naming Your Child?
C 解析：标题归纳题。A．一个西方的名字是否比一个日本的名字更好？B.你们的孩子为什么会有两个名字？C.你们是怎么选择孩子的名字的？D.在给孩子取名方面你们是否能解决分歧？ 结合第一段内容： A group of foreign residents married to Japanese talked about their children’s names.一群外国居民与日本人结婚，谈论给孩子取名的事情，并结合每段的内容，可知正确选项为C。

How to Ride a Bicycle in Traffic
Cycling in traffic is something that seems dangerous but can be quite safe as long as you obey the rules of the road and exercise alertness(机敏) and common sense. Here are some tips for you.
Wear a helmet. The wearing of helmets is a requirement in many countries. A helmet won’t prevent accidents. 1.________ That’s why it’s always safer to wear it when cycling.
Prepare yourself. 2.________ So always have lights if it is not very bright out, and if you cycle in the evening, reflective clothing is a great idea. The more obvious you are to drivers, the less likely they are to hit you.
3．________ If you’re an inexperienced cyclist, it is not a good idea to throw yourself in the heavy traffic. Pick some quiet back streets and get used to being around cars and other road traffic. Gradually build up your stamina(耐力) on larger roads by practicing on them on quiet days.
Obey the rules of the road. Always ride with the traffic. Stay off sidewalks, stop for red lights, stop at stop signs, and obey all other traffic signs. Don’t run red lights no matter how many other cyclists do it. 4.________
Avoid distractions. If you need to talk on your cellphone, stop and pull over. Don’t listen to an MP3 player or radio. 5.________ Some cars are very difficult to hear, so you need to pay careful attention to not get run over by them.
A．Carefully pass walkers.
B．Start from the easy streets.
C．Make sure you are comfortable with your bike.
D．Your good habits can help improve others’ safety awareness.
E．Most accidents happen when drivers haven’t noticed a cyclist.
F．These will affect your ability to hear cars coming up behind you.
G．But it can save you from serious head injuries if you are in an accident.
【解题导语】 本文是一篇说明文，主要介绍了如何在车流中安全骑行。
1．G 解析：此空设于段中，是一个过渡句。前一句提到头盔不会阻止车祸的发生，后一句指出戴头盔骑行更安全，可知此空应使用转折语气指出戴头盔的好处。
2．E 解析：此空设于段中，是一个过渡句，引出下文。下文提到如何保持显眼以免被车撞，可推测此空应指出骑行时保持显眼的原因。
3．B 解析：此空设于段首，是本段的主题句。后文提到练习骑行要从小街道开始适应再到大路上练习，说明骑车时要先从容易的街道开始骑。
4．D 解析：此空设于段尾，与上文相呼应。上文告诉骑车者要遵守交通规则，不要跟随其他闯红灯骑行者，可推测此空应指出这样做的好处。
5．F 解析：此空设于段中，是一个过渡句。上文提到不要在骑行时打电话、听MP3播放器和收音机，下文提到需要保持专注以免发生车祸，可推测此空应指出骑行时分心的危害。

While encouraging children to do something with rewards of money, toys or even a special activity can be very effective, some experts believe this prevents youngsters from developing their own sense of responsibility.Alfie Kohn, author of Punished by Rewards, believes that giving rewards—even nonmaterial ones—only serves to control youngsters.
But not all experts agree.According to Dr. Virginia Shiller, a psychologist and instructor at the Yale Child Study Center and co-author of the book Rewards for Kids, rewards can help parents teach their children new habits.Shiller says the key is in how the rewards are given.“I was inspired to write this book by my own parenting experience, and I’m happy to say my sons—now in their late 20s—are very responsible people，” says Shiller.
Whether or not to offer rewards is a personal decision.Here are some tips to help your family.
Make rewards fairly immediate.Younger kids may need more immediate goals, while older kids can understand working toward longer-term rewards.Rewards can be small, and they don’t need to be money or a toy.Even a trip to the library or park can be a treat.
Set realistic, specific goals.Don’t try to convert too many things at once.If you try to work on getting to school on time, being nice to siblings(兄弟姐妹) and cleaning up toys all at once, that’s too much.It’s better to target just one or two actions in a particular time.
Make sure there’s not a hidden problem.For example, if your child refuses to go to school, you may want to look into whether there is an unknown problem, such as bullying(欺凌) or a learning problem.
Rethink your requests.Are the tasks you’re asking of your child age-appropriate(合适的) and beneficial？If they are, spend time explaining the value of those actions.
【解题导语】 父母应该给孩子奖励来鼓励他们吗？给孩子奖励时应该注意什么呢？
1．Which of the following statements would Dr.Virginia Shiller agree to?
A．She failed to raise her sons to be responsible men.
B．Children should be given only nonmaterial rewards.
C．Children can benefit if they are properly rewarded.
D．Rewards prevent children from becoming responsible.
C 解析：推理判断题。根据第二段的“rewards can help parents teach their children new habits.Shiller says the key is in how the rewards are given.”可知应选C项。
2．When trying to encourage younger kids to do something, parents should avoid ________．
A．promising a small reward
B．promising a long-term reward
C．promising a nonmaterial reward
D．making rewards fairly immediate
B 解析：细节理解题。根据第四段的“Make rewards fairly immediate...longer-term rewards.”可知应该避免给年纪小的孩子允诺长远的奖励。
3．What does the underlined word “convert” in Paragraph 5 mean?
A．Replace. B．Discover.
C．Exchange. D．Change.
D 解析：词义猜测题。根据画线词后面的“If you try to work on...that’s too much.”并结合选项可知这里是指不要试图一次“改变”很多事情。
4．Which of the following tips is NOT given in the passage?
A．Thinking about hidden problems.
B．Helping children reach their goals.
C．Being realistic when making goals.
D．Thinking if the requests make sense.
B 解析：推理判断题。根据文章内容，可知A、C、D三项的内容都有提到，但并没有说要帮助小孩完成目标。

Food blogs, celebrities, and nutritionists all advocate the benefits of eating organic(有机的) fruits and vegetables. But a new study published in Science Advances paints a more complex picture. While organic produce is likely slightly healthier to eat and, in some ways, more sustainable to grow, there are also downsides．
Organic fruits and vegetables typically cost more than conventional ones. To get a certificate as organic, farmers must meet specific criteria, including growing produce without the use of genetic engineering and chemical inputs. Without these methods, the growing process typically requires more labor, time, and money, a cost that is passed down to consumers.
It’s true that in many ways, organic farming is more sustainable than conventional farming. But when it comes to environmental concerns such as greenhouse gas output and water loss, the comparison gets complex. Organic farms produce less greenhouse gas output per acre. However, because they are barred from using genetic engineering, pesticides(杀虫剂), and other methods that increase efficiency(效率), organic farms also produce an estimated 19% to 25% less yield than conventional farms. While there isn’t a whole lot of research on the topic, the few studies that do exist suggest greenhouse gas output and water loss might actually be higher on organic farms, on a per unit basis, says study author Verena Seufert.
In addition, while organic produce is likely more nutritious than conventional fruits and vegetables, there’s not a lot of evidence to support the claim that these often slight differences influence consumer health. The same is true for the pesticide remainder. In developed countries, where pesticide use is tightly regulated, there’s no scientific consensus on how these often slight differences influence human health.
Still, Seufert stresses that if you can afford to eat organic produce, you should do so. Organic farms provide safer work environments for workers, plus they support great biodiversity. The real takeaway from her study is not that organic produce is bad but that the practice needs more studies to increase the yield without lowering sustainability.
But if you can’t afford to buy organic produce, don’t stress too much, particularly from a nutritional perspective.
【解题导语】 本文是一篇议论文，主要介绍了有机农产品的一些情况。
1．What does the underlined word “downsides” in Paragraph 1 most probably mean?
A．Dangers. B．Drawbacks.
C．Benefits. D．Differences.
B 解析：词义猜测题。根据第一段最后一句“While organic produce is likely slightly healthier to eat and, in some ways, more sustainable to grow, there are also downsides．”可知，虽然有机农产品可能稍微健康些，但在某些方面，也有其缺点。再结合语境和下文陈述的有机农产品的缺点可以判断，画线词应指有机农产品不好的一面，B项意为“缺点”，故B项正确。
2．Which key factor makes it hard to compare organic farming with conventional farming when it comes to environmental concerns?
A．The yield. B．The price.
C．The water loss. D．The labor.
A 解析：推理判断题。根据第三段第二句“But when it comes to environmental concerns such as greenhouse gas output and water loss, the comparison gets complex.”可知，当涉及诸如温室气体排放和水资源损失等环境问题时，比较传统农业和有机农业就困难了；且根据第三段其他内容可知，虽然有机农业与传统农业相比更可持续，但因为不能使用基因工程技术、杀虫剂及其他提高效率的方法，有机农业的产量相对低，故产量是使得两者之间的比较变得困难的重要因素。A项意为“产量”，故A项正确。
3．Which of the following will the author most probably agree with?
A．Farmers’ work environment should be improved.
B．Organic produce should be made more efficiently.
C．It isn’t wise for consumers to buy organic products.
D．The pesticide remainder do no harm to people’s health.
B 解析：推理判断题。根据第三段第四句可知，由于禁止使用基因工程技术和杀虫剂等，有机农场的产量估计会比传统农场的产量低19%至25%。据此可以判断，应当提高有机农业的生产效率，故B项正确。第五段的最后一句亦是提示。
4．In the author’s opinion, why should we support organic produce?
A．It’s environmentally friendly.
B．It’s more nutritious.
C．It helps keep the variety of plants.
D．It’s safer for consumers.
C 解析：推理判断题。根据第五段第二句“Organic farms provide safer work environments for workers, plus they support great biodiversity.”可知，有机农场为工人提供更安全的工作环境，而且有机农场有助于保持生物多样性。据此可以判断，我们应当提倡有机农产品的原因之一是能保持生物的多样性，故C项正确。

A group of foreign residents married to Japanese talked about their children’s names.
Nicole Despres
Students services manager, 40(American)
We have no intention to live outside Japan so it made sense for the kids to take my Japanese husband’s family name. However, we did want to have a Western name too, so all three of them now have both a Western and Japanese name. We agreed there would be no strange names, spelling or unusual kanji(Chinese characters in the Japanese language). All names had to be easy to say and familiar in both Japanese and English.
John McCracken
Company general manager, 27(American)
My son’s name is Aiden. In part because my wife and I met in university and as she was studying Irish history and I have some links to Scotland and Ireland, I wanted a unique Gaelic(盖尔族的)name. We settled for Aiden as we found kanji that can be used in Japan that means “legendary hero”.
Paula Murakami
College women’s Association of Japan, 53(American)
My husband was very excited about choosing names, so I decided to let him choose. He wanted their first names to be Japanese and camp up with names that included the kanji character in his own name. Our boys, Hiroki and Kenta, never had any problems while living on the U．S. West Coast with Japanese names, and I think both as children and as adults, they love their names.
Jeff Ruiz
Recording engineer, 42(Mexican)
My son’s name is Lenny. My wife chose it together with me as we were looking for a name that works in both worlds—mine in Mexico, and hers in Japan—and the name Lenny is common everywhere. In Japanese we write the name in katakana as that is easy for Japanese people who seem to like names in two or three characters.

How to Ride a Bicycle in Traffic
Cycling in traffic is something that seems dangerous but can be quite safe as long as you obey the rules of the road and exercise alertness(机敏) and common sense. Here are some tips for you.
Wear a helmet. The wearing of helmets is a requirement in many countries. A helmet won’t prevent accidents. 1.________ That’s why it’s always safer to wear it when cycling.
Prepare yourself. 2.________ So always have lights if it is not very bright out, and if you cycle in the evening, reflective clothing is a great idea. The more obvious you are to drivers, the less likely they are to hit you.
3．________ If you’re an inexperienced cyclist, it is not a good idea to throw yourself in the heavy traffic. Pick some quiet back streets and get used to being around cars and other road traffic. Gradually build up your stamina(耐力) on larger roads by practicing on them on quiet days.
Obey the rules of the road. Always ride with the traffic. Stay off sidewalks, stop for red lights, stop at stop signs, and obey all other traffic signs. Don’t run red lights no matter how many other cyclists do it. 4.________
Avoid distractions. If you need to talk on your cellphone, stop and pull over. Don’t listen to an MP3 player or radio. 5.________ Some cars are very difficult to hear, so you need to pay careful attention to not get run over by them.
A．Carefully pass walkers.
B．Start from the easy streets.
C．Make sure you are comfortable with your bike.
D．Your good habits can help improve others’ safety awareness.
E．Most accidents happen when drivers haven’t noticed a cyclist.
F．These will affect your ability to hear cars coming up behind you.
G．But it can save you from serious head injuries if you are in an accident.
【解题导语】 本文是一篇说明文，主要介绍了如何在车流中安全骑行。
1．G 解析：此空设于段中，是一个过渡句。前一句提到头盔不会阻止车祸的发生，后一句指出戴头盔骑行更安全，可知此空应使用转折语气指出戴头盔的好处。
2．E 解析：此空设于段中，是一个过渡句，引出下文。下文提到如何保持显眼以免被车撞，可推测此空应指出骑行时保持显眼的原因。
3．B 解析：此空设于段首，是本段的主题句。后文提到练习骑行要从小街道开始适应再到大路上练习，说明骑车时要先从容易的街道开始骑。
4．D 解析：此空设于段尾，与上文相呼应。上文告诉骑车者要遵守交通规则，不要跟随其他闯红灯骑行者，可推测此空应指出这样做的好处。
5．F 解析：此空设于段中，是一个过渡句。上文提到不要在骑行时打电话、听MP3播放器和收音机，下文提到需要保持专注以免发生车祸，可推测此空应指出骑行时分心的危害。

Harry Potter and the Philosopher’s① Stone(2001)
What an amazing film! Who has not dreamt of finding out that he or she is really someone special and famous? That fantasy② is reality for Harry Potter (played by Daniel Radcliffe). Harry, a sensitive young boy who has a scar③ on his forehead④， has been living with his relatives, the Dursleys. His uncle abuses him, his aunt ignores him, and his cousin hates him. At first, Harry thinks that his parents were killed in a car crash when he was a baby. However, he later finds out that his father was a wizard⑤ and that his mother was a witch⑥， both of whom were murdered by an evil⑦ wizard—the same wizard who gave Harry the scar⑧. Harry discovers that he possesses a wizard’s powers too, and that he already has a reputation⑨ in the world of witches and wizards because of his parents.
Hagrid (played by Robbie Coltrane) is a very large person who works at Hogwarts, a special institution⑩ for young witches and wizards. He comes to rescue Harry from? the Dursleys and take him to the school. They have a few adventures along the way, and Harry is introduced to a whole new world he never knew about—the world of magic?. The world of ordinary people exists parallel? to the world of magic, but the ordinary people are not aware of it.

《哈利·波特与魔法石》(2001)
多么令人惊叹的一部电影啊！谁没有梦想过发现自己实际上是一个特别的而且是出名的大人物？那个幻想对哈利·波特(丹尼尔·拉德克利夫饰)来说就是现实。哈利是个敏感的小男孩，他的额头上有一个伤疤，他一直与他的亲戚德思礼一家生活在一起。他的姨父虐待他，姨妈不重视他，表兄讨厌他。起初哈利认为他的父母是在他还是婴儿的时候死于一场车祸。但是后来哈利发现他的父亲是巫师，母亲是女巫，他们都被一个邪恶的巫师杀害——也就是给哈利留下伤疤的那个巫师。哈利发现自己也拥有巫师的神奇魔力，而且因为他的父母，他在魔法界已经很有名气。
海格(罗比·科特瑞恩饰)非常高大，在霍格沃茨魔法学校工作。霍格沃茨魔法学校是一所为年轻巫师而设的特别学校。海格从德思礼家中救出哈利，把他带到了学校。一路上，他们经历了一些奇遇，哈利被带到了他以前从来不知道的全新世界——魔法世界。普通人生活的世界与魔法世界并存，但是普通人却没有意识到魔法世界的存在。
On the train to school, Harry makes two new friends, Ron Weasley (played by Rupert Grint) and Hermione Granger (played by Emma Watson). Together, they learn about their new school and the special curriculum? there. Harry has contradictory? feelings about his new life. At first, he enjoys it, but later he learns that the evil wizard, Voldemort, is the one who killed his parents. Harry and his partners? have a fierce? battle with Voldemort to save themselves and their magic world.
The film is full of special effects. Watching Harry zoom? around on a flying broom? could make you feel dizzy?， and the school sport of Quidditch is fantastic. The effects are all made with the computer, and are really exciting to watch.
?curriculum [k?'rIkj?l?m] n. 全部课程
regular curriculum 必修课程
elective courses 选修课程
?contradictory [?k?ntr?'dIkt?rI] adj. 相互矛盾的，对立的，不一致的
?partner ['pɑ?tn?(r)] n. 伙伴，搭档；合伙人
?fierce [fI?s] adj. 激烈的，猛烈的；凶狠的，凶猛的
?zoom [zu?m] vi. 快速移动，急剧增长
?broom [bru?m] n. 扫把，扫帚
动名词短语watching Harry ... broom在句中作主语。
?dizzy ['dIzI] adj. 头晕目眩的，使人眩晕的
make you feel dizzy是“make＋宾语＋宾补”结构，这里用了不带to的动词不定式短语作宾语补足语。
在去魔法学校的火车上，哈利结识了两位新朋友，罗恩·韦斯莱(鲁珀特·格林特饰)和赫敏·格兰杰(埃玛·沃森饰)。他们一起了解了他们的新学校和那里的特殊课程。对于新生活，哈利有一种矛盾的心情。起初，他很喜欢新生活，但是后来，他知道了邪恶巫师伏地魔就是杀死他父母的人。为了拯救自己和魔法世界，哈利和他的伙伴们与伏地魔展开了激烈的斗争。
电影充满了特技。看着哈利骑在飞天扫帚上疾驰会让你感觉眩晕，而魔法学校的“魁地奇”运动则是非常精彩。所有的特技都是用电脑制作，看起来真是激动人心。
All of this is wonderful, but the best part of the film is the acting. This is surprising as the three young actors playing the characters of Harry, Ron and Hermione did not have much experience as actors before making this film. The skill with which these three become their characters is one of the film’s main attractions. They do very well even compared with the adult actors, such as Alan Rickman (Professor Snape), Richard Harris (Headmaster Dumbledore) and Maggie Smith (Professor McGonagall)．
J. K. Rowling, the author of the Harry Potter books, approved the final script of the film. However, many people have complained that the film is too long. At 142 minutes, it is almost a half hour longer than an average film. While the sport of Quidditch is a vital part of the book and of Harry’s school experience, I feel that too much time is devoted in the film to showing it. I think this is more to show off the special effects than to help the film’s plot. Also, it disappoints me that several interesting scenes are not shown in the film.
as the three young actors... 是as引导的原因状语从句。
现在分词短语playing...and Hermione作后置定语修饰the three young actors。
with which...characters 是由“介词＋which”引导的定语从句，修饰the skill。
attraction [?'tr?k?n] n. 吸引人的特征，有吸引力的地方；吸引，吸引力
过去分词短语compared with...作状语。
approve vt. 认可，批准
average adj. 平常的，普通的，一般的
while 引导让步状语从句，表示“尽管，虽然”。
devote...to... 把……投入……
其中to为介词，故其后用动名词showing。
show off 炫耀，卖弄
disappoint [?dIs?'p?Int] vt. 使失望，使扫兴
it是形式主语，后面的that从句是真正主语。
这一切都非常精彩，但这部电影最好的部分是演员的演技。它非常令人惊讶，因为扮演哈利、罗恩和赫敏的三位小演员在出演这部电影之前并没有多少表演经验。这三位演员扮演角色时所表现出来的技巧是这部电影的主要亮点之一。即使与成人演员相比，例如艾伦·里克曼(饰演斯内普教授)、理查德·哈里斯(饰演邓布利多校长)和玛吉·史密斯(饰演麦格教授)，他们也表现极佳。
哈利·波特系列的作者J. K. 罗琳认可了最终的电影剧本。然而，许多人抱怨电影太长了。142分钟，比一般的电影几乎要长半个小时。虽然魁地奇比赛是书中很重要的一部分，也是哈利在魔法学校的一部分重要经历，我觉得影片用了太多的时间来表现它。我认为这更多的是炫耀电影的特技，而不是表现电影的情节。还有，一些有趣的场景没有在电影中表现出来，这一点令我失望。
Many people also complain that the film has a tendency to spend too much time showing Harry’s life with the Dursleys. This shows that the film－makers did not give enough thought to who the audience of the film would be.
Most people who went to see the film had read the book before going to the cinema. They would already know that Harry is not happy with the Dursleys. The important and interesting parts of the film occur in the world of magic. Much of this early part of the film could have been skipped, and more time could have been spent at Hogwarts.
Even with these slight drawbacks, Harry Potter and the Philosopher’s Stone is still a great film, and I certainly recommend it！
have a tendency to do... 有做……的倾向
spend time doing sth. 花费时间做某事
give thought to 认真考虑，思考
who引导的宾语从句作介词to的宾语。
who引导定语从句，修饰most people。
in the world of magic 在魔法世界
could have done 在此处表示“本来能够做(实际上没有做)”。
drawback n. 缺点，缺陷，不利条件
recommend v. 推荐，举荐，介绍；劝告，建议
许多人还抱怨电影有意花了太多的时间来展示哈利与德思礼一家在一起的生活。这表明电影制作人并没有充分考虑到电影的观众会是谁。
去看电影的大多数人在去影院之前都已经读过书了。他们已经知道哈利与德思礼一家在一起时是不开心的。影片重要、有趣的部分发生在魔法世界。这部影片前面的部分很多东西本可以略过，而增加一些在霍格沃茨学校的情节。
虽然存在这些小缺陷，《哈利·波特与魔法石》仍然是一部很棒的电影，我当然要推荐它！

虽然魁地奇比赛是书中很重要的一部分，也是哈利在魔法学校的一部分重要经历，我觉得影片用了太多的时间来表现它。

(1)while当……时候， 后接一段时间，不能接时间点。

(3)should/ought to＋have done用在肯定句中表示过去应该做但没有做。shouldn’t/ought not to＋have done表示过去不该做的事却做了。(两者都有责备、遗憾的意思)。
(4)needn’t＋have done表示过去做了其实不必去做的事，意为“本可以不必”“本可以不”等。
(5)would＋have done表示“本想……”。不定式的完成式与否定的would连用，表示原本并不期望发生而事实上已发生的事。

My dad, Elvin Elliott, always loves farming. Even though he turns 82 this year, he’ll be out on the tractor this summer, happily making hay for his 50 beef cows.
Last year I took a vacation day from work to shoot photos of Dad and my brother Terry, who takes time off every year to help with making hay. Terry says it’s still a vacation for him because he enjoys being out in the fresh air, driving a tractor and helping Dad. As I watched Dad work with Terry, I thought how lucky I was to grow up on our farm.
My mom, Uzelia, was a city girl, but she supported Dad’s dreams and became his best farmhand. They started in 1961 on a rented farm, tending 18 acres of tobacco and milking 18 cows. In 1975 they bought their own farm, and eventually milked as many as 130 Holsteins.
It was my job to drive the cows to the barn and bottle-feed the baby calves. Sometimes I’d have as many as 15 calves—and they all wanted to be fed at the same time. I used to tap them lightly on the nose with a stick. Before long they all knew to wait their turn. I would feed two, and when they finished, two more would come up.
My favorite haymaking memories are of break time, when we’d get “square nabs” peanut butter crackers and a Coke.
We sold our milk to Pine State Creamery. When it went out of business in 1989, Dad sold his Holsteins and got beef cows. And now, even though he’s been farming for nearly 55 years, Dad has no plan to retire anytime soon. And why should he? He’s doing exactly what he loves.
【解题导语】 作者的父亲虽然82岁了，但是仍然喜欢在农场里干活。
4．When it is time for Terry to work on the farm, he most probably feels ________．
A．angry B．bored
C．surprised D．cheerful
D 解析：推理判断题。根据第二段的“Terry says it’s still a vacation for him because he enjoys being out in the fresh air, driving a tractor and helping Dad.”可推断，Terry要去农场干活时很开心。
5．What were the Holsteins mainly raised for?
A．To sell for meat.
B．To produce milk.
C．To produce calves.
D．To work on the farm.
B 解析：细节理解题。根据第三段的“In 1975 they bought their own farm, and eventually milked as many as 130 Holsteins.”可知，这些荷兰牛是用来产奶的。
6．What do we learn about the author’s father?
A．He has got too old to work.
B．He knows what he truly loves.
C．He lives a very boring life now.
D．He works hard to make a living.
B 解析：推理判断题。根据末段的“And now, even though he’s been farming for nearly 55 years, Dad has no plan to retire anytime soon. And why should he? He’s doing exactly what he loves.”可推断，作者的父亲知道自己真正爱做的是什么。
7．The author tapped the calves lightly on the nose to ________．

The only reason I auditioned(试演) for my high school’s play Here and Now was because friends had convinced me.Part of me thought there was no way I’d be able to memorize all those lines and still get good grades.Having never been in a play，I was unsure whether I could live up to everyone’s trust.But the rest of me was excited to perform.
Surprisingly，my lines were easier to learn than I had thought.As opening night approached，we practiced every day.We became stressed and emotionally drained，forgetting lines we had known for weeks.We no longer laughed at funny parts.Our director was disappointed，frequently screaming at us to get our act together.
Opening night finally arrived.When we all stood together to pray for a successful performance，I realized this was what we all had been working toward for the last two months.And that’s when I was faced with stage fright.However，stepping into the bright lights，all my fears just disappeared.I knew my lines perfectly and actually had fun.I had no reason to be nervous.After all，I knew my lines！I had prepared myself well for the play.I saw my family and friends in the front row and smiled broadly before falling back into my character.
We finally put on a successful performance.As we gathered for one last group hug，I felt sad.I had come to understand my character almost as well as I understood myself.All those weeks were over，those weeks of working together，of failing painfully but somehow knowing we’d come through.We had started out as a group of students whose only thing in common was the play and we had become friends.I knew that I would miss it all.

2．A．beat B．drop
C．run D．shout

My dad, Elvin Elliott, always loves farming. Even though he turns 82 this year, he’ll be out on the tractor this summer, happily making hay for his 50 beef cows.
Last year I took a vacation day from work to shoot photos of Dad and my brother Terry, who takes time off every year to help with making hay. Terry says it’s still a vacation for him because he enjoys being out in the fresh air, driving a tractor and helping Dad. As I watched Dad work with Terry, I thought how lucky I was to grow up on our farm.
My mom, Uzelia, was a city girl, but she supported Dad’s dreams and became his best farmhand. They started in 1961 on a rented farm, tending 18 acres of tobacco and milking 18 cows. In 1975 they bought their own farm, and eventually milked as many as 130 Holsteins.
It was my job to drive the cows to the barn and bottle-feed the baby calves. Sometimes I’d have as many as 15 calves—and they all wanted to be fed at the same time. I used to tap them lightly on the nose with a stick. Before long they all knew to wait their turn. I would feed two, and when they finished, two more would come up.
My favorite haymaking memories are of break time, when we’d get “square nabs” peanut butter crackers and a Coke.
We sold our milk to Pine State Creamery. When it went out of business in 1989, Dad sold his Holsteins and got beef cows. And now, even though he’s been farming for nearly 55 years, Dad has no plan to retire anytime soon. And why should he? He’s doing exactly what he loves.
【解题导语】 作者的父亲虽然82岁了，但是仍然喜欢在农场里干活。

A．To sell for meat.

A．He has got too old to work.
B．He knows what he truly loves.
C．He lives a very boring life now.

7．The author tapped the calves lightly on the nose to ________．

The only reason I auditioned(试演) for my high school’s play Here and Now was because friends had convinced me.Part of me thought there was no way I’d be able to memorize all those lines and still get good grades.Having never been in a play，I was unsure whether I could live up to everyone’s trust.But the rest of me was excited to perform.
Surprisingly，my lines were easier to learn than I had thought.As opening night approached，we practiced every day.We became stressed and emotionally drained，forgetting lines we had known for weeks.We no longer laughed at funny parts.Our director was disappointed，frequently screaming at us to get our act together.
Opening night finally arrived.When we all stood together to pray for a successful performance，I realized this was what we all had been working toward for the last two months.And that’s when I was faced with stage fright.However，stepping into the bright lights，all my fears just disappeared.I knew my lines perfectly and actually had fun.I had no reason to be nervous.After all，I knew my lines！I had prepared myself well for the play.I saw my family and friends in the front row and smiled broadly before falling back into my character.
We finally put on a successful performance.As we gathered for one last group hug，I felt sad.I had come to understand my character almost as well as I understood myself.All those weeks were over，those weeks of working together，of failing painfully but somehow knowing we’d come through.We had started out as a group of students whose only thing in common was the play and we had become friends.I knew that I would miss it all.

对接高考
①You are waiting at a wrong place. It is at the hotel ____________ the coach picks up tourists.
你等错地方了，客车是在旅馆接游客的。
that 解析：分析句子结构可知，此处是一个对地点状语进行强调的强调句型，故用that。
②It was when we were returning home ____________ I realized what a good feeling it was to have helped someone in trouble.
是我们快要回家的时候，我才意识到了帮助有困难的人感觉多么美妙！
that 解析：本题考查强调句型的判定。强调句型的基本结构为“It is/was＋被强调部分＋that/who＋剩余部分．”。若将It is/was与that/who去掉，句子成分仍然完整，那么该句就是强调句。经判断，when we were returning home I realized what a good feeling it was to have helped someone in trouble.句子成分完整，由此可以断定本句是强调句，空格处应用that。
③(福建卷)It was the culture, rather than the language, ____________ made it hard for him to adapt to the new environment abroad.
是文化而不是语言使他很难适应国外的新环境。
that 解析：本题考查强调句型的判定。从理解思路上先看本句是不是强调句型：It is/was＋被强调部分＋that＋其他部分。强调句型的判断方法是将It is/was与that去掉，来验证此句是不是一个成分完整的句子。经判断句子“The culture，rather than the language，made it hard for him to adapt to the new environment abroad.”成分完整，由此可以断定本句是强调句型，所以空格处应用that。
用强调句改写下列句子(强调加黑部分)
Bill made a kite at school yesterday.
→It_was_Bill_who/that_made_a_kite_at_school_yesterday.
He didn’t go to work because his mother was ill.

Recently I have watched a silent movie named The Little Tramp.The tramp was a poor and homeless man with a moustache and wore large trousers, worn-out shoes and a small round black hat.One reason why the movie is popular with people throughout the world is the charming character.Another reason is Chaplin’s humorous acting in the movie.He is also known as “a master of Nonverbal Humor”and won many awards.
From my point of view, though the tramp is a social failure, it’s his optimism and determination to overcome difficulties that leave me a deep impression.We should learn from him in face of difficulties.I believe you’ll be interested in it.

Children who drink more milk do not necessarily develop healthier bones, researchers said on Monday in a report that stresses exercise and modest consumption of calcium-rich(含钙丰富的) foods such as tofu and broccoli(花椰菜)．
The report drew its conclusions from previously published studies and was written by researchers from the Physicians Committee for Responsible Medicine, which advocates a strict vegetarian diet.“Under scientific study, the support for the milk myth is defeated. This analysis of 58 published studies shows that the evidence on which U．S. milk intake recommendations are based is scant．”said study author Dr. Amy Lanou in a statement.
The U．S. government has gradually increased recommendations for daily calcium intake, largely from milk products. But the Physicians Committee’s report said increasing consumption of milk products was not necessarily the best way to provide the necessary calcium intake of at least 400 milligrams per day. Other ways to get the absorbable calcium found in one cup of cow’s milk include a cup of orange juice, two packages of instant oats(燕麦), two-thirds cup of tofu, or 1-2/3 cups of broccoli, the report said. And it also pointed out that milk products provide 18 percent of the total fat energy and 25 percent of the total fat intake in the diets of American children who are developing increasing rates of obesity.
Frank Greer, who specializes in children’s illnesses at the University of Wisconsin in Madison, said the ideal way to achieve the goal of healthy bones is to make sure children exercise and consume up to 1，300 milligrams a day of calcium.
【解题导语】 本文主要讲述了仅喝牛奶不能让孩子骨骼强健，理想的方式是进行适当锻炼加上补充足够的钙。
1．What can be a suitable title for the passage?
A．Calcium Is More Important Than Milk
B．Vegetarian Diet Becomes Popular
C．How to Get Rid of Obesity
D．Does More Milk Really Benefit Us?
D 解析：标题归纳题。本文通过一个研究结论颠覆了传统的思想——喝牛奶可满足孩子对钙的需求。除此之外，适当的锻炼和蔬菜水果也是补钙的途径，故答案为D项。
2．What does the underlined word “scant” in the second paragraph most probably mean?
A．Accurate. B．Enough.
C．Not enough. D．Inaccurate.
C 解析：词义猜测题。根据第三段第一句话“美国政府建议人们逐渐增加每天的钙的摄入量”可推知原来的摄入量是不够的，故选C项。
3．Which of the following statements is NOT mentioned as a way to get absorbable calcium?
A．Drinking cow’s milk.
B．Drinking orange juice.
C．Taking more exercise.
D．Eating some tofu.
C 解析：细节理解题。第一段中提到使青少年的骨骼健康只喝牛奶是不够的，还需要适当的锻炼和食用含钙的食物，如豆腐和花椰菜，可知A、D两项被提及，C项未提及；根据倒数第二段中的倒数第二句可知B项被提及。
4．We can see from the passage that ________．
A．American children’s obesity has something to do with milk intake
B．the U．S．government has realized exercise is important for healthier bones
C．researchers are all against children’s calcium intake from milk products
D．children can develop healthier bones only by consuming milk products
A 解析：推理判断题。根据倒数第二段最后一句可知牛奶产品占那些变得肥胖的儿童的脂肪摄入量的25%，由此可推断牛奶的摄入和儿童的肥胖有关。

A Bite of China, made by CCTV’s Documentary Channel(纪录片频道), sparked discussion not only on Chinese food, but also on locally made documentary programs.
When you think of documentaries, you may think of them as long, boring programs. But documentaries can be wonderful and bring stories from the real world into our homes. With fascinating footage(影片片段) and stories, documentaries encourage us to think about interesting issues we wouldn’t necessarily know about.
So, what makes a good documentary, and what should we pay attention to when we watch one? Here, we offer a few easy strategies to help you get the most out of watching documentaries.
Pay attention to the themes
While watching a documentary, keep your eyes and ears peeled for the themes people talk about and what ideas they focus on. Is it meant to be informative or raise a certain emotional response?
Think critically
Listen to what the people in the documentary are saying and ask yourself the following questions: If you were debating with someone or introducing a new concept, would you say the things the people in the documentary are saying? Do the arguments make sense?
Check the sources
If you’re sitting at the computer and can’t think of anything to do, why not look up the points the documentary made and see if they are accurate? You could even read more about what is presented in the documentary.
Who are the creators?
The creators or financial backers of a film will usually be involved with how the subject matter is presented. For instance, as the documentary 2016: Obama’s America was directed in large part by a conservative writer, it’s not surprising that it’s critical of President Obama from the beginning.
【解题导语】 当提到纪录片时，人们想到的可能是枯燥、冗长，然而穿插着故事和电影的纪录片会变得非常具有吸引力。在本文中，作者提供了几种方法来欣赏纪录片。
1．Which of the following is the most proper to describe documentaries?
A．Non－fictional. B．Controversial.
C．Subjective. D．Thoughtful.
A 解析：A项“非虚构的”；B项“有争议的”；C项“主观的”；D项“深思的”。根据文章第二段的...the real world...以及常识可知纪录片是纪实的，故选A。
2．The passage is mainly written to ________．
A．inform us of factors of good documentaries
B．help us enjoy documentaries better
C．introduce ways of making documentaries
D．help us figure out themes of documentaries
B 解析：根据文章第三段的Here, we offer a few easy strategies to help you get the most out of watching documentaries.可知B选项正确。
3．Why is 2016: Obama’s America mentioned in the article?
A．Because the author dislikes Obama.
B．Because it is directed by a writer.
C．Because it is quite popular in China.
D．Because it is a persuasive example.
D 解析：根据文章末段The creators or financial backers of a film will usually be involved with how the subject matter is presented. For instance...可以判断2016: Obama’s America是被作者用作例子，来证明作者观点的，故选D。
4．According to the passage, ________．
A．it is always difficult to get the themes of documentaries
B．financial backers often appear in documentaries
C．it’s better to think twice about what is in documentaries
D．many points of documentaries are not accurate
C 解析：根据文章第二段的When you think of documentaries, you may think of them as long, boring programs. But documentaries can be wonderful and bring stories from the real world into our homes.可知有时候人们对于纪录片的理解是不正确的，故答案选C。
B
Here are some top cities to visit in the world.
Cape Town, South Africa
Cape Town shines at the southern point of the African continent. Explore Table Mountain National Park, which spreads along the Atlantic coast from Signal Hill to Cape Point. At Boulders Beach near Cape Point, share the sand with nearly 3，000 African penguins. Within the national park is Lion’s Head peak. Walk up Lion’s Head for excellent views of the coast and Robben Island.
Zermatt, Switzerland
This Alpine Swiss city is most famous for the Matterhorn, a huge mountain with one of the highest summits(顶峰) in Europe. In its shadow is tiny Zermatt, a car-free town of just over 5，000 people. While winter is the most popular time for world-class skiing, summer is a great time to hike the surrounding Alps.
Barcelona, Spain
This magical city in the Catalonia region of Spain has everything from grand beaches to Antoni Gaudi’s imaginative architecture. Take an hour-long train ride to the mountain of Montserrat and see the amazingly shaped rocks that influenced Gaudi’s work.
Prague, Czech Republic
This Eastern European city is the modern capital of the Czech Republic and the historical capital of the Kingdom of Bohemia. Walk across the Charles Bridge and visit the John Lennon Wall to get a sense of the city’s quiet revolutionary(革命的) soul. From the unique art of David Cerny—often hidden in plain sight—to the growing counterculture(反主流文化) scene, Prague is full of surprises.
Goreme, Turkey
This city is home to Goreme National Park, an open-air museum and UNESCO World Heritage Site. Visit the 10th-and 11th-century cave churches that display rare examples of Byzantine art. Goreme is a popular destination for backpackers—travelers often on months-long trips. The area is also an excellent place to enjoy Turkish food and wine.
【解题导语】 作者向我们推荐了世界上一些很不错的旅游城市，鼓励我们去那里旅游。

In the twentieth century，movie houses were springing up.Customers were happy to pay the price of a movie ticket，usually 10 cents，to see the latest moving picture show.At first，single reels(卷) of film were projected onto the big screen.By 1907，many reels of film were connected and presented as feature films.Early audiences were attracted into the movie houses not only by the western feature shown every Saturday but also by the promise of seeing still shots of themselves up on the big screen.
Traveling photographers earned a living，moving from town to town，taking photos of local people—especially children—and nearby scenes of interest to show on the screen of the local movie house.Eventually，these still shots of local people and places were replaced by newsreels of current news events，such as the world wars in Europe.These newsreels showed flickering(忽隐忽现的) images of real men going off to battle.The reels played before the main feature and were eagerly awaited reports of current events in the world.
The early features shown every Saturday and occasionally during the week were silent films.A local，talented pianist usually sat in the front of the theater supplying a musical backdrop for the action.
Soon，the feature films were no longer silent：recorded sound was now possible，and the feature films were now referred to as“talkies”and became even more popular.The films were all in black and white，with color films not appearing until the late 1930s.
With the invention of air conditioning，movie theaters became cool places in summer’s sultriest(最闷热的) weather.The theaters heavily advertised the cool comfort of the theaters，and summer ticket sales surged．Eager customers slipped in out of the heat and enjoyed the cooled air and watched the latest feature film.
Today，movie theaters remain cool places of sight and sound entertainment.Missing are the still photographs of local children or scenes.The only remaining clues as to their part in the development of the industry are faded copies of the original photographs now folded away in dusty family albums.
【解题导语】 本文是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了电影的发展。
8．The 20th-century movie audiences ________．
A．found movies interesting
B．got involved in filmmaking
C．had free time only on Saturdays
D．thought movies were expensive
A 解析：细节理解题。由第一段中的Customers were happy to pay the price of a movie ticket...to see the latest moving picture show.和Early audiences were attracted into the movie houses...可知，在20世纪初期，电影院开始兴起，观众都喜欢看电影。
9．Why were the early features accompanied by a piano?
A．Films were silent.
B．Films were colorless.
C．Audiences preferred pianos to violins.
D．Viewers were making too much noise.
A 解析：细节理解题。由第三段的描述可知，早期的电影都是无声电影，会有钢琴伴奏来为剧情中的动作提供音乐背景。
10．What does the underlined word “surged” mean?
A．Ended. B．Dropped.
C．Increased. D．Varied.
C 解析：词义猜测题。由倒数第二段中的The theaters heavily advertised the cool comfort of the theaters和Eager customers slipped in out of the heat...watched the latest feature film.可知，影院内凉爽舒适，夏季的影院票房也飙升了；由此推断，surged意为“上升，升高”。
11．What is the text mainly about?
A．The development of the film industry.
B．Why movies are entertaining.
C．What feature films are.
D．Types of movies.
A 解析：主旨大意题。通读全文可知，本文主要讲述了电影行业的发展。

【解题导语】 文章介绍父母和孩子之间存在的问题，很多孩子有压力，但是父母不能理解他们，不能帮助他们。

A Bite of China, made by CCTV’s Documentary Channel(纪录片频道), sparked discussion not only on Chinese food, but also on locally made documentary programs.
When you think of documentaries, you may think of them as long, boring programs. But documentaries can be wonderful and bring stories from the real world into our homes. With fascinating footage(影片片段) and stories, documentaries encourage us to think about interesting issues we wouldn’t necessarily know about.
So, what makes a good documentary, and what should we pay attention to when we watch one? Here, we offer a few easy strategies to help you get the most out of watching documentaries.
Pay attention to the themes
While watching a documentary, keep your eyes and ears peeled for the themes people talk about and what ideas they focus on. Is it meant to be informative or raise a certain emotional response?
Think critically
Listen to what the people in the documentary are saying and ask yourself the following questions: If you were debating with someone or introducing a new concept, would you say the things the people in the documentary are saying? Do the arguments make sense?
Check the sources
If you’re sitting at the computer and can’t think of anything to do, why not look up the points the documentary made and see if they are accurate? You could even read more about what is presented in the documentary.
Who are the creators?
The creators or financial backers of a film will usually be involved with how the subject matter is presented. For instance, as the documentary 2016: Obama’s America was directed in large part by a conservative writer, it’s not surprising that it’s critical of President Obama from the beginning.
【解题导语】 当提到纪录片时，人们想到的可能是枯燥、冗长，然而穿插着故事和电影的纪录片会变得非常具有吸引力。在本文中，作者提供了几种方法来欣赏纪录片。
1．Which of the following is the most proper to describe documentaries?
A．Non－fictional. B．Controversial.
C．Subjective. D．Thoughtful.
A 解析：A项“非虚构的”；B项“有争议的”；C项“主观的”；D项“深思的”。根据文章第二段的...the real world...以及常识可知纪录片是纪实的，故选A。
2．The passage is mainly written to ________．
A．inform us of factors of good documentaries
B．help us enjoy documentaries better
C．introduce ways of making documentaries
D．help us figure out themes of documentaries
B 解析：根据文章第三段的Here, we offer a few easy strategies to help you get the most out of watching documentaries.可知B选项正确。
3．Why is 2016: Obama’s America mentioned in the article?
A．Because the author dislikes Obama.
B．Because it is directed by a writer.
C．Because it is quite popular in China.
D．Because it is a persuasive example.
D 解析：根据文章末段The creators or financial backers of a film will usually be involved with how the subject matter is presented. For instance...可以判断2016: Obama’s America是被作者用作例子，来证明作者观点的，故选D。
4．According to the passage, ________．
A．it is always difficult to get the themes of documentaries
B．financial backers often appear in documentaries
C．it’s better to think twice about what is in documentaries
D．many points of documentaries are not accurate
C 解析：根据文章第二段的When you think of documentaries, you may think of them as long, boring programs. But documentaries can be wonderful and bring stories from the real world into our homes.可知有时候人们对于纪录片的理解是不正确的，故答案选C。
B
Here are some top cities to visit in the world.
Cape Town, South Africa
Cape Town shines at the southern point of the African continent. Explore Table Mountain National Park, which spreads along the Atlantic coast from Signal Hill to Cape Point. At Boulders Beach near Cape Point, share the sand with nearly 3，000 African penguins. Within the national park is Lion’s Head peak. Walk up Lion’s Head for excellent views of the coast and Robben Island.
Zermatt, Switzerland
This Alpine Swiss city is most famous for the Matterhorn, a huge mountain with one of the highest summits(顶峰) in Europe. In its shadow is tiny Zermatt, a car-free town of just over 5，000 people. While winter is the most popular time for world-class skiing, summer is a great time to hike the surrounding Alps.
Barcelona, Spain
This magical city in the Catalonia region of Spain has everything from grand beaches to Antoni Gaudi’s imaginative architecture. Take an hour-long train ride to the mountain of Montserrat and see the amazingly shaped rocks that influenced Gaudi’s work.
Prague, Czech Republic
This Eastern European city is the modern capital of the Czech Republic and the historical capital of the Kingdom of Bohemia. Walk across the Charles Bridge and visit the John Lennon Wall to get a sense of the city’s quiet revolutionary(革命的) soul. From the unique art of David Cerny—often hidden in plain sight—to the growing counterculture(反主流文化) scene, Prague is full of surprises.
Goreme, Turkey
This city is home to Goreme National Park, an open-air museum and UNESCO World Heritage Site. Visit the 10th-and 11th-century cave churches that display rare examples of Byzantine art. Goreme is a popular destination for backpackers—travelers often on months-long trips. The area is also an excellent place to enjoy Turkish food and wine.

In the twentieth century，movie houses were springing up.Customers were happy to pay the price of a movie ticket，usually 10 cents，to see the latest moving picture show.At first，single reels(卷) of film were projected onto the big screen.By 1907，many reels of film were connected and presented as feature films.Early audiences were attracted into the movie houses not only by the western feature shown every Saturday but also by the promise of seeing still shots of themselves up on the big screen.
Traveling photographers earned a living，moving from town to town，taking photos of local people—especially children—and nearby scenes of interest to show on the screen of the local movie house.Eventually，these still shots of local people and places were replaced by newsreels of current news events，such as the world wars in Europe.These newsreels showed flickering(忽隐忽现的) images of real men going off to battle.The reels played before the main feature and were eagerly awaited reports of current events in the world.
The early features shown every Saturday and occasionally during the week were silent films.A local，talented pianist usually sat in the front of the theater supplying a musical backdrop for the action.
Soon，the feature films were no longer silent：recorded sound was now possible，and the feature films were now referred to as“talkies”and became even more popular.The films were all in black and white，with color films not appearing until the late 1930s.
With the invention of air conditioning，movie theaters became cool places in summer’s sultriest(最闷热的) weather.The theaters heavily advertised the cool comfort of the theaters，and summer ticket sales surged．Eager customers slipped in out of the heat and enjoyed the cooled air and watched the latest feature film.
Today，movie theaters remain cool places of sight and sound entertainment.Missing are the still photographs of local children or scenes.The only remaining clues as to their part in the development of the industry are faded copies of the original photographs now folded away in dusty family albums.

Over 100 years ago, German immigrants(移民) first started selling hot dogs at places like Coney Island’s Nathan’s Famous.This is the place where hot dogs were first sold in America, but then something interesting happened. People began making their own hot dogs, and people of every region put its unique things on the snack. So what are America’s best hot dogs?
On our search for America’s best hot dogs, we kept an eye out for places with a unique style of hot dogs. We made sure of considering online reviews from locals as well as the quality of the ingredients(原料). We also considered the entire experience, from driving up to the restaurant or stand to placing your order to taking that first bite.
We sorted through dozens of hot dog stands and restaurants in search of the best in America. In order to be included, the vendor needed to have a trademark(商标) dog, with toppings that add something extra. For example, Ben’s Chili Bowl in Washington, D. C. doesn’t only have a trademark frank(the half-smoke), but it also has a trademark topping(chili). It is thought highly of by locals and professional eaters alike, and eating there is a great experience. For these reasons, it’s high on our list.
Sadly, there were some famous stands that didn’t_make_the_cut. While the original Nathan’s Famous in Coney Island might very well be the most well-known hot dog stand in America, it didn’t win a place on our best American hot dog list.
The stands that serve the best hot dogs are those ancient stands that have been serving the same exact product day in and day out for many years. People usually have to wait in line for one hot dog from such stands.

2．Which might NOT be considered to find the best American hot dogs?
A．The whole experience.
B．The cost of the hot dog.
C．Reviews on the Internet.
D．Whether it has a unique style.
B 解析：推理判断题。根据第二段的内容可知，A、C、D三项的内容都有提到，但并没有提到价格因素。
3．Ben’s Chili Bowl in Washington, D．C．is most probably ________．
A．popular B．expensive
C．big D．new
A 解析：推理判断题。根据第三段的“It is thought highly of by locals and professional eaters alike, and eating there is a great experience. For these reasons, it’s high on our list.”可推断，这家热狗店很受欢迎。
4．The underlined part in Paragraph 4 means some famous stands ________．
A．didn’t cut their hot dogs
B．failed to appear on the list
C．weren’t really that famous
D．didn’t change their hot dogs
B 解析：句意理解题。根据第四段Nathan’s Famous的例子可知，画线部分的意思是指一些著名的热狗店并没有出现在最好吃热狗的名单上。

Rob Greenfield is an American. He describes himself as an adventurer and an activist. He really cares about the world and its environment and is always looking for ways to inspire people to keep the world healthy. One of his most recent activities was to help people become more aware of the amount of trash(垃圾) they produce. He called this activity, “Trash Me.”
We usually place our trash in a large plastic(塑料的) bag. When the bag is full, we tie it up and place it somewhere with everyone else’s trash. Like magic, it disappears and we have no idea what happens to it. Maybe we never think about it. Rob learnt that most Americans create about two kilos of trash each day. If we could reduce this amount, there would be a huge benefit to our environment. But how do you make people aware of this? He had an unusual idea. He changed himself to wear every piece of trash he created over thirty days. Multiply two kilos of trash by 30 days in a month, and you have around 60 kilos of additional weight to carry around! He made a suit that would enable him to do this and began walking the streets of New York.
“I noticed that everywhere you walk you hear or see buy, buy, buy, consume, consume, consume. No one has any idea how much waste they are creating.” People would see Rob walking around and be curious about what he was doing. With every explanation, he hoped to get at least one more person to think about the waste they were creating.
Rob lives a near-zero-waste lifestyle outside of “Trash Me”. In the high－consumption world that we live in today, this may seem unreasonable but Rob believes that with the right mindset it is possible to create far less waste and live a healthier life. Reduce, reuse, recycle, and refuse on regular basis. Your small efforts will go a long way.

Over the next decade, technology will decimate more jobs in many professions.
Some robots already cost less to operate than the salaries of the humans they replace, and they are getting cheaper. Boston Consulting Group predicts that, by 2025, the operating cost of a robot that does welding(焊接) will be less than DS| 2 per hour, for example. That’s more affordable than the DS| 25 per hour that a human welder earns today in America.
Uber and many other companies are working on developing cars and trucks that don’t need a driver in the driver’s seat. According to the American Trucking Associations, approximately 3 million truck drivers were employed in the United States in 2010，and 6.8 million others were employed in other jobs relating to trucking activity. So roughly one of every 15 workers in the country is employed in the trucking business. We could be talking about millions of jobs disappearing in the early 2020s.
And then there is the “Gig Economy(零工经济)” that has some businesses moving toward part－time, on－demand employment. Uber has already done this to taxi drivers, and other technology companies are doing it to a wide range of jobs. A study by Intuit predicted that, by 2020，40% of American workers will be self－employed, and that full－time jobs will be harder to find. We are talking about 60 million people in this category. The problem is that not only do such part－time workers lack reliable full－time jobs and sick pay, but they can’t enjoy health insurance and longer－term benefits.
The measures to be taken are to raise trade barriers. But closing the doors to foreign trade won’t bring jobs back. It will only slow the global economy and hurt American exports, shrinking the U．S. economy and accelerating job loss.
【解题导语】 本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了随着科技的发展，高科技将逐渐摧毁更多行业的就业机会，企业使用高科技进行生产的成本会越来越低，“零工经济”正在来临。

Dear Alfred，
I want to tell you how important your help is to my life.
Growing up, I had people telling me I was too slow, though, with an IQ of 150＋ at 17, I’m anything but stupid. The fact was that I was found to have ADHD(注意力缺陷多动障碍). Anxious all the time, I was unable to keep focused for more than an hour at a time.
However, when something did interest me, I could become absorbed. In high school, I became curious about the computer, and built my first website. Moreover, I completed the senior course of Computer Basics, plus five relevant pre-college courses.
While I was exploring my curiosity, my disease got worse. I wanted to go to college after high school, but couldn’t. So, I was killing my time at home until June 2012 when I discovered the online computer courses of your training center.
Since then, I have taken courses like Data Science and Advanced Mathematics.Currently, I’m learning your Probability course. I have hundreds of printer paper, covered in self-written notes from your videos. This has given me a purpose.
Last year, I spent all my time looking for a job where, without dealing with the public, I could work alone, but still have a team to talk to. Luckily, I discovered the job—Data Analyst—this month and have been going full steam ahead. I want to prove that I can teach myself a respectful profession, without going to college, and be just as good as, if not better than, my competitors.
Thank you. You’ve given me hope that I can follow my heart. For the first time, I feel good about myself because I’m doing something, not because someone told me I was doing good. I feel whole.
This is why you’re saving my life.
Yours,
Tanis

Help the person realize he is drunk. Talk to him and show him that he is increasingly clumsy. 18.________ For example, ask who you can call to pick him up, or what public transport he would like to use. If he knows he is drunk, he may follow your advice.
Make last efforts. If all else fails and a drunken person wants to drive home, threaten to call the police or take his keys. 19.________ When he is not concentrated, take his keys. This may make it easier to convince him to take a cab home. Remember, don’t give him the keys even if he’s angry.

【解题导语】 本文主要对如何说服朋友不要酒驾提出了四条建议：尽早与这个人谈谈；帮助他意识到自己喝醉了；做最后的努力；树立好榜样。
16．D 解析：空格上文阐述酒后驾驶导致受伤和死亡是可预见的，因此每一个人都要做出决定阻止酒驾的时候到了。D项中的decision与此处话题一致，因此推断，D项“但是做出正确的决定不容易”符合语境。故选D。
17．G 解析：根据空格上文可知，随着喝酒，判断力成为越来越不受控制的。因此推断，那意味着一个人喝的越多，他就越不可能听你的话。故选G。
