【解题导语】未来一百年世界将会是什么样子，世界局势有哪些变化呢？乔治·弗莱德曼在他的《未来百年》中做了预测。不过他的预言是否正确，只能等到一百年之后来判定了。
1．B　通览全文可知，本文与未来百年的预言有关，ahead可以表示将来时间，而before, ago均表示过去，coming修饰名词时应置于其前。故选B项。
2．A　make predictions“做出预言”。produce“生产(产品)”；create“创造(前所未有的东西)”；contribute“贡献，捐献”。根据题意可知，B、C、D三项均不符。
3．B　在该书中，弗莱德曼向世人展示了在未来一个世纪世界将如何变化。下文就世界变化的趋势做了分析，因此how符合题意。
4．C　现在世人讨论的主要问题是如何养活不断增长的人口。
5．D　弗莱德曼认为这种关注将被人口出生率下降的挑战所取代。concern与about搭配，fact与problem不足以描述问题的严重性，而challenge既可以说明问题的重要，还可以表示存在的困难。
6．D　由上文的“a growing population”可知，本段在讨论人口问题，这里说的是很大一部分人口的老龄化同样是未来百年人类面临的挑战。
7．C　有关气候变化的问题。come to“涉及，论及”，符合题意。turn to“转向”；keep to“遵守”；link to“联系”均与题意无关，予以排除。
8．B　本段介绍了如何利用太阳能的情况。唯一的问题是将阳光反射到地球上。也就是说在地面上接收太阳能，因此A、C、D三项错误。
9．C　前文称有两种方法，一种是用光缆，另一种是通过微波辐射。the other“两者中的另一个”。
10．A　本文与百年预言有关，前面讲了有关人口、气候的预言，这里讲关于政治的预言。
11．B　由常识可知，墨西哥和美国属于北美国家。再根据下一段美国和墨西哥的争端可知，弗莱德曼预测了墨西哥将称雄北美洲的可能。
12．D　墨西哥对美国霸权的憎恨最终会变得更强烈。generally“一般地”，normally“正常地”，properly“合适地”，这三个副词不与表示结果的“grow”搭配，而D项eventually“最终地”符合题意。
13．B　从逻辑关系来看，墨西哥对美国霸权的憎恨与两国间牢固的贸易关系形成了对比，因此用表示转折关系的连词even though“尽管”。in case“以防”，as though和as if都是“好像”的意思，这三项与题意无关。
14．B　弗莱德曼称未来有可能发生世界大战。这是一个there be句型，因此B项正确。A、C、D三项都不表示存在。
15．B　这场战争将动用空间武器。根据后面的“platforms from bases on the moon”可以判断，这将是一场空间大战。
16．D　在某种意义上很像《星球大战》版的1941年日本偷袭美国珍珠港军舰。根据前一句的attack暗示，应选D项。
17．B　这里是admit的两个宾语从句。第二个宾语从句的连词不可省略。admit后接的句子没有疑问或否定意义，因此不用whether或if。
18．D　本文是对未来世纪大事件的预测。而business“商务”，affairs“政务”，matters“琐事”均不符合题意，故选D项。
19．B　final judgment on“对……做出最终判决”。但他说对他的预言能做出最终评判的只能是那些一百年之后还活着的人了。
20．B　只有活着的人才可以对弗莱德曼的预言做出评判，因此B项正确。
Ⅱ.阅读理解(共4小题；每小题2分，满分8分)
阅读下面短文，从每题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出最佳选项。
Amazon, the world’s largest online retailer (零售商), is testing unmanned drones (无人机) to deliver goods to customers, according to Chief Executive Jeff Bezos.
The drones, called Octocopters, could deliver packages weighing up to 2.3 kg to customers within 30 minutes after they placed the order, he said.
However, he added that it could take up to five years for the service to start.
The US Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) is yet to approve the use of unmanned drones for civilian purposes (民用)．
“I know this looks like science fiction, but it’s not，” Mr Bezos told CBS television’s 60 minutes programme.
“We can do half hour delivery … and we can carry objects, we think, up to five pounds (2.3 kg), which covers 86% of the items that we deliver.”
Ready to enter
The service will be called Prime Air and comes as Amazon is looking to improve its efficiency to boost (提高) growth.
Amazon also posted a video on its website showing a drone picking up a package from one of its warehouses (仓库) and delivering it to the doorstep of a customer’s house.
However, it still has to wait for permission from US regulators.
The US Federal Aviation Administration has approved the use of drones for police and government agencies, issuing about 1,400 permits over the past several years.
Civilian air space is expected to be opened up to all kinds of drones in the US by 2015 and in Europe by 2016.
Amazon said, “From a technology point of view, we’ll be ready to enter commercial operations as soon as the necessary regulations (规定) are in place.”
The FAA was “actively working on rules for unmanned aerial vehicles”， the company said, adding that it hoped the green light would be given as early as 2015.
“One day, Prime Air vehicles will be as normal as seeing mail trucks on the road today.”
(　　)1.According to the passage, which one is NOT true?
A．Amazon is the largest online retailer in the world.
B．Amazon has started this service.
C．The drones could deliver packages to customers within 30 minutes.
D．Amazon should get permission from US regulators.
(　　)2.Why will Amazon use unmanned drones to deliver goods to customers?
A．To save money.
B．To show off itself.
C．To ensure safety of goods.
D．To improve its efficiency to boost growth.
(　　)3.When will civilian air space be opened up to all kinds of drones in Europe?
A．By 2015.　　　 B．By 2016.
C．By 2013.　　　 D．By 2014.
(　　)4.What’s the best title of the passage?
A．The World’s Largest Online Retailer
B．Unmanned Drones
C．Amazon Testing Unmanned Drones for Deliveries
D．How to Deliver Goods to Customers
【解题导语】近日，亚马逊CEO杰夫·贝佐斯在接受采访时透露，亚马逊正在试验一个无人机送货上门的项目，大大缩短消费者从下单到签收货物等待的时间。
1．B　细节理解题。根据文章前两段可知A、C正确。根据第三段“However, he added that it could take up to five years for the service to start.”可知B错误。
2．D　细节理解题。根据第七段的句子“The service will be called Prime Air and comes as Amazon is looking to improve its efficiency to boost (提高) growth.”可知，亚马逊这样做的目的是提高运送效率来促进业务增长，故D为正确选项。
3．B　细节理解题。根据倒数第四段的“Civilian air space is expected to be opened up to all kinds of drones in the US by 2015 and in Europe by 2016.”可知B为正确选项。
4．C　标题归纳题。本文主要介绍了亚马逊——世界上最大的在线零售商正在测试使用无人机向顾客运送货物。
Ⅲ. 七选五阅读 (共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分)
根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
Everybody gets angry, but out-of-control anger isn’t good for you or those around you.So here are five simple strategies to help you learn how to manage your anger：
·Relax.Breathe deeply, from your stomach.__1__ Repeat it to yourself and visualize a relaxing time and experience.
·Change the way you think.When you’re angry, your thinking can get exaggerated (夸大的)．__2__ For instance, instead of telling yourself, “Oh, it’s terrible! Everything’s ruined，” tell yourself, “It’s understandable that I’m upset about it, but it’s not the end of the world.”
·__3__ Statements like “This never works.” or “You’re always forgetting things.” will make you feel your anger is justified (情有可原的) and there’s no way to solve the problem.They might upset people who might be willing to work with you on a solution.
·Have a better communication.Angry people tend to jump to conclusions.If you are in a heated discussion, slow down.__4__ And take your time before answering.Instead of saying the first thing that comes into your head, think carefully about what you want to say.
·Use humor.Psychologists say that highly angry people tend to think “things ought to go my way！” “Silly humor” can help you get a more balanced perspective.So, when you feel that anger coming the next time, picture yourself as a king or queen, walking around, admired by everybody, and getting your own way in every situation.The more detail you can get into your imaginary scenes, the more likely it is to put a smile on your face.__5__
A．Be careful with words like “never” or “always”．
B．Listen carefully to what the other person is saying.
C．Try replacing these thoughts with more reasonable ones.
D．Avoid using these strategies when you’re in a tense situation.
E．Then slowly repeat a calm word or phrase such as “take it easy”．
F．Try changing the topics so your talks won’t turn into arguments.
G．That will help you realize that the things you’re angry about are really not very important.
【解题导语】本文是说明文。文章介绍了五条控制易怒情绪的方法。
1．E　E项中的“phrase such as ’take it easy’”与本段小标题Relax相呼应。
2．C　下文的…“tell yourself, ’It’s understandable that I’m upset about it, but it’s not the end of the world.’”是对C项“replacing these thoughts”的举例。
3．A　由下文的“Statements … might upset people”可知，本段作者建议人们谨慎使用带有never或always的话语。
4．B　由小标题Have a better communication和文中的“slow down”以及下文的“take your time before answering”可知，作者建议人们在激烈的讨论中，不要轻易下结论，认真倾听，良好沟通，从而避免怒气的产生，故选B项。
5．G　本段作者建议使用幽默化解怒气。由本段的“The more detail … the more likely it is to put a smile on your face.”可知，幽默可以让人意识到令人生气的事其实并没有那么重要，故选G项。

③carried out their promise；carry on helping；carried him through3．be suitable for 适合；合适
Thick clothes are not suitable for hot weather.
厚衣服不适合热天穿。
【辨析】　suit/fit这两个词都有“适合”之意，但有区别：
(1)suit
vt.适合；使相配；适应；中……的意
n．一套衣服；起诉，诉讼作动词侧重指“合乎(条件、身份、口味、需要等)”。若你认为衣服的款式、花色都好，穿上很好看，那衣服就是“suit you well”
(2)fit vt.使适合；使符合；合……的身；(服装等)合身；符(配)合，适应
adj.适合的；相称的；称职的；健康的
作动词侧重指“(尺寸、大小)合适”，因而引申为“吻合；协调”。比如买回来的衣服你穿上正合身那就是“fit you well”I don't know what profession would suit me.
我不知道什么职业适合我。
The dress fits you well, but its colour doesn't suit you.
你穿这衣服很合身，但颜色不适合你。
All these suit my purpose very well.
这一切都很合我意。【单项选择】
①You should ________your products to the markets, which is the correct way to earn money.
A．suit　 B．add up
C．subject　 D．ask
②My brother is very tall.The little bed won't ________for him.
A．prepare　 B．match
C．fit　 D．do【答案】①A　句意：你们应该使你们的产品适应市场需要，这样才是正确的生财之道。suit…to… 使……适合……；add up to合计；subject…to…使……顺从……；ask…to… 请……
到……。
②D　根据句意可排除A；B、C意义符合，但match和fit都是及物动词，也应排除；do作不及物动词，意为“行，适合，足够”等。1．Some like to read fantasy stories and imagine what the world will be like in 10,50 or even 1,000 years' time.
有些人喜欢阅读幻想故事，想象世界在10年、50年甚至1000年后会变成什么样。【句式分析】
这是一个主从复合句，Some like to read fantasy stories and imagine是主句，what the world will be like是宾语从句，作imagine的宾语；in 10,50 or even 1,000 years' time是宾语从句的时间状语。【连词填空】
①It is by no means clear________the president can do to end the strike.
②The shopkeeper did not want to sell for ________he thought was not enough.
③The soldiers soon reached ________was once an old temple ________the villagers used as a school.
④I doubt ________ he will change his mind.
⑤I feel sorry for ________ has happened there.
⑥The advantage is _________ we know more about medicine today.
⑦I will appreciate it ________ you can give me a chance.【答案】①what　考查主语从句的连接词。此处it是形式主语，what引导的是主语从句，作真正的主语。what作do的宾语。句意：总统能采取什么行动结束这次罢工一点也不清楚。
②what　③what；which/that　④whether
⑤what　⑥that　⑦if
2．By the year 2015, the clothing industry will have produced new types of material that will remain stainless no matter what you spill on them.
到2015年，服装业将生产出新的材料，不论什么东西溅到上面，总是保持洁白。【句式分析】
这是一个主从复合句，by the year 2015是时间状语，the clothing industry will have produced new types of material是主句，that will remain stainless是定语从句；定语从句中no matter what you spill on them是让步状语从句。(1)by构成时间状语时，谓语动词有三种完成时态的形式：
①by＋过去时间点，主语＋谓语(过去完成时态)＋宾语……
②by＋现在时间点，主语＋谓语(现在完成时态)＋宾语……
③by＋将来时间点，主语＋谓语(将来完成时态)＋宾语……【拓展】(2)whatever/whoever/whomever/whichever既可以引导名词性从句，即主语从句、宾语从句、表语从句、同位语从句，也可以引导让步状语从句。在引导让步状语从句时，等同于no matter what/who/whom/whichWhatever/No matter what happens，don't be surprised.
无论发生什么，都别惊讶。
Whoever(＝No matter who) asks him for advice，he is always ready to help.
不管谁求助于他，他都乐于帮助。【语法填空】

②The map is one of the best tools a man has ________he goes to a new place.【完成句子】

④By last year he ________________(参观) 200 countries.
⑤Perhaps she ____________(恢复) by now.
⑥This is a very interesting book.I'll buy it ________________(无论花多少钱)．
【答案】①will have saved　考查动词的时态。根据时间状语“by next month(到下个月为止)”用将来完成时。句意：——我听说詹森计划着买一辆车。——我知道。到下个月他将积蓄了足够的钱买辆二手车。②wherever　考查连词的辨析。从句中有地点“a new place”作宾语，很显然本句是让步状语从句。句意：一个人无论什么时候到了一个新地方，地图就是他最好的工具之一。
③will have been completed　④had visited
⑤has recovered　⑥however much it may cost3．By the year 2030, development in biochemistry and medical science will have made it theoretically possible for us to live for at least 150 years.
到2030年，生物化学和医疗技术的发展，将使我们活到至少150岁，从理论上讲是有可能的。
【句式分析】
(1)在will have made it theoretically possible for us to live for at least 150 years中，it作形式宾语，possible作宾补，to live for at least 150 years为真正的宾语。(2)“find, make, consider, think, feel等动词＋宾语＋宾补”结构中，若宾语为不定式，则通常使用形式宾语it，而把真正的宾语放在宾补之后。

阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出最佳选项。
A
If you and I met at a party, you would probably ask me what I do for a living, what town I live in — the kind of questions that would help you to build a picture of who I am.I might ask the same of you, but I probably wouldn’t be listening.It’s more likely I’d be looking at the label on your jeans, glancing at your shoes, and eyeing up your mobile phone.These are the things that really tell me who you are.In fact, I sincerely hope you would notice the same things about me.Well, that’s the way it was a year ago.
I began to behave like this at a very early age.I remember the first day of junior school, standing alone in the playground, desperately wanting to make friends.I headed straight for what seemed to be the most promising group of boys.They were talking to girls, trading football cards, eating green sweets — all the things I wanted to do.As I attempted to talk with them, one boy asked me, “Do you support Manchester United Football Club？” Another asked, “Are you into Michael Jackson？” I answered yes to them all, even though the truthful answer was no.
Things seemed to be going well until one of the boys caught sight of my trainers.I’d never thought too much about them before.They were just plain blue sports shoes that Mum had bought, for playing in the back garden.At once, the group laughed very loudly, “Where did you get those from? A charitable organization？”
Looking at the boys in bewilderment (疑惑), I noticed for the first time that they all had similar shapes on the sides of their trainers, like the ones on footballers’ boots on television.It wasn’t just their shoes: crocodiles, eagles and tigers sat on the breasts of their T-shirts, and every single boy seemed to have the same school bag, a blue plastic bag with a leaping puma in silver on the side.I walked away quietly, depressed.From that day on, I was determined to be like them, if not more so.
(　　)1.What was the author like one year ago?
A．He was very interested in figure paintings.
B．He was crazy about holding different parties.
C．He used to judge others by their appearances.
D．He had some difficulty communicating with others.
(　　)2.How did the author react when asked about his favorite football team?
A．He told a lie. B．He kept silent.
C．He replied proudly. D．He refused to answer.
(　　)3.Why did the group suddenly burst out laughing?
A．Because they played a joke on the author.
B．Because they were attracted by the author.
C．Because they welcomed the author warmly.
D．Because they looked down upon the author.
(　　)4.After the first day of junior school, the author began to________.
A．be addicted to television B．concern himself with animals
C．follow famous football players D．spend more money on branded goods
【解题导语】本文是记叙文。作者介绍了他是如何开始追求品牌货的。
1．C　推理判断题。由第一段的“I’d be looking at the label on your … really tell me who you are.”可知，一年前的作者喜欢以貌取人。
2．A　细节理解题。由第二段的“I answered yes to them all, even though the truthful answer was no.”可知，当作者被问到喜欢的球队和明星时，他撒了谎。
3．D　推理判断题。由第三、四段可知，作者穿的是一双普通的蓝色球鞋，而那些穿着名牌球鞋的男孩取笑他的鞋是从慈善机构得到的，由此推测这些男孩是因看不起他而大笑起来。
4．D　推理判断题。由最后一段作者看到其他男孩所穿戴的服饰后感到十分沮丧，再结合第一段作者与他人交流时所关注的事物可知，从那时起，作者开始花大量的钱买品牌货。
B
The eventual extinction of the large prehistoric animals has always attracted researchers. However, it is impossible to recreate most of them, either because the fossilized (变成化石的) DNA is too old (dinosaur) or just not available.But the one exception may be the woolly mammoth, which lived about 8,000 years ago.
Thanks to their relatively recent disappearance and the ice-cold weather they lived in, plenty of well-preserved specimens (标本) have been discovered.In the last few years, scientists have been able to piece together the mammal’s genetic code (遗传密码) using some frozen hair and also recreate its blood, with the help of DNA that was found preserved in the bone.Now, a group of Japanese scientists want to take it one step further and bring the mammoth back to life.
The team of scientists plan to start with a journey to Siberia this summer, to seek out the DNA from a flash-frozen specimen of the mammal.In case they are unable to find one, they will use the tissue of a preserved mammoth that currently sits in a Russian laboratory.
The scientists will join the mammoth’s DNA with an empty egg of the mammoth’s closest present-day relative — the elephant.Then, by using an electric current, they will trick the egg into growing and dividing.After a few days, the researchers will put it inside a female elephant, which will act as a surrogate mother (代孕母亲)．
Then begins the waiting game — for it takes about 600 days, for an elephant or in this case a woolly mammoth baby, to fully develop — that is, if everything goes well and the surrogate mother doesn’t reject the egg.
If luckily we do get a baby mammoth, scientists are not sure if they would produce more, but they are hoping they will be able to study it and answer the age-old question of how they became extinct — were they hunted down by humans or did they die because of climate change?
Will the woolly mammoth come back to life? We have to wait and see.
(　　)5.The remains of the woolly mammoth are kept well partly due to________.
A．their long hair　 B．their big size
C．the coldness D．human activity
(　　)6.Why do the Japanese scientists plan to go to Siberia?
A．To find suitable DNA．
B．To preserve the specimen.
C．To recreate the mammoth’s blood.
D．To seek help from the Russian scientists.
(　　)7.The fourth paragraph mainly deals with ________.
A．the future of the cloned mammoth
B．the process of cloning the mammoth
C．the difficulty the scientists are faced with
D．the relation between the mammoth and the elephant
(　　)8.If the scientists’ efforts pay off, we are most likely to ________.
A．clone a lot of mammoths B．bring dinosaurs back to life
C．know the effects of climate change D．find out why the mammoth died out
【解题导语】本文是说明文。日本的科学家正在尝试克隆猛犸象，企图复活这一史前庞然大物。
5．C　细节理解题。由第二段中的“the ice-cold weather they lived in, plenty of well-preserved specimens have been discovered”可知，猛犸象生活的地域气候寒冷，这使得它们的遗骸保存得比较完好。
6．A　细节理解题。由第三段中的“to seek out the DNA from a flash-frozen specimen of the mammal”可知，科学家去西伯利亚是要找到合适的猛犸象DNA。
7．B　主旨大意题。由第四段中的“join the mammoth’s DNA with an empty egg … Then, by using an electric current … After a few days… ”可知，本段介绍了科学家克隆猛犸象将会实施的步骤。
8．D　细节理解题。由倒数第二段中的“but they are hoping they will be able to study it and answer the age-old question of how they became extinct”可知，如果克隆成功，科学家可以通过研究猛犸象宝宝来探究猛犸象灭绝背后的原因。

Regularly spending time in a sauna (桑拿房) may help keep the heart healthy and extend (延长) life, say Finnish scientists in the journal JAMA Internal Medicine.
Researchers from the University of Eastern Finland (UEF) studied 2,300 middle-aged men for an average of 20 years.They divided the men into three groups according to how often they used a sauna each week.Over the course of the study, 49% of men who went to a sauna once a week died, compared with 38% of those who went two to three times a week and just 31% of those who went four to seven times a week.Frequent visits to a sauna were also linked with lower death rates from heart disease.
The results don’t surprise Dr.Thomas H．Lee, founding editor of the Harvard Heart Letter.“The beneficial effects of a sauna have been well documented in the past.It lowers blood pressure, and there is every reason to believe that its effects are good for your heart，” says Dr.Lee.
Sauna use is deeply rooted in Finnish culture.A nation of 5.5 million people, Finland has as many saunas as television sets — around 3.3 million.Most of the saunas are in people’s homes, although they’re also in offices and factories.
The very nature of the Finnish sauna is designed to reduce stress, the researchers say.The sauna has been a gathering place for family and friends for centuries.And a basic sauna rule, which discourages people from discussing controversial topics while bathing, is taught to the Finns during childhood.
The Finnish researchers suggest that saunas may provide similar benefits to exercise because the high temperatures can drive heart rates to levels often achieved by moderate-intensity (中等强度的) physical activities.
So can sitting in a sauna take the place of exercising? “I don’t know that I would take a sauna for exercise，” Dr.Lee says.“But exercising and then taking a sauna seems like a very healthy lifestyle.”
(　　)9.What do the numbers in Paragraph 2 show?
A．It can be harmful to use a sauna too often.
B．Regular sauna users are likely to live longer.
C．Different people have different sauna habits.
D．Saunas may lower death rates from heart disease.
(　　)10.What does Dr.Lee think of UEF researchers’ findings?
A．They are amazing. B．They are interesting.
C．They match his expectations. D．They go against past documents.
(　　)11.What do we know about the Finnish sauna?
A．It is easily accessible to the Finns.
B．It encourages people to debate.
C．It is a completely new lifestyle.
D．It attracts more children than adults.
(　　)12.Which may be the best for your health according to Dr.Lee?
A．Having as many saunas as possible.
B．Using a sauna after doing physical activities.
C．Doing physical exercise in high temperatures.
D．Taking moderate-intensity physical exercise.
【解题导语】本文是说明文，介绍了芬兰科学家的研究发现——常洗桑拿浴的人容易长寿。
9．B　推理判断题。由第一段的“Regularly spending time in a sauna may help keep the heart healthy and extend(延长) life… ”可知，第二段的这些数据说明经常洗桑拿的人更容易长寿。
10．C　细节理解题。由第三段的“The results don’t surprise Dr.Thomas H．Lee…”可知，Lee博士认为该研究结果是意料之中的。
11．A　推理判断题。由第四段的“Sauna use is deeply rooted in Finnish culture … Most of the saunas are in people’s homes… ”可知，芬兰桑拿浴对于芬兰人来说随处可见。
12．B　细节理解题。由最后一段Lee博士说的“But exercising and then taking a sauna seems like a very healthy lifestyle.”可知，他认为运动之后洗桑拿对健康很有益。

【解题导语】科学家日前宣布他们将有能力通过内植电极的方式对人类的大脑活动进行监控，从而准确地“读”梦和解梦。
1．C　他们声称已经研究出了一套能够较好地记录人的大脑活动的系统。claim to have done“声称已经做到某事”。report与suggest后接动名词，announce后接从句。
2．B　determine“决定”；allow“允许”；persuade“说服”；forbid“禁止”。根据语境可知，B项符合要求。
3．D　“我们乐意为人们解读梦境”。watch“观察”；study“研究”；describe“描述”；read“解读”。根据语境可知，D项正确。
4．B　这里介绍了过去心理学家们了解人们的梦境所采用的办法，因此与过去有关。previously“过去，从前”。
5．C　之前了解人们做梦情况的研究者为心理学家。因此A、B、D三项与语境不符。
6．A　Cerf博士希望能最终做到将人们对梦的记忆与大脑活动的电子影像进行比较。compare A with B“将A与B进行对比”。
7．D　根据语境及第一段的“record higher level brain activity”的暗示，答案为D项。
8．B　根据语境判断，B项正确。“其中我们想回答的一个问题其实是我们什么时间做梦。”
9．A　文章讲述了研究人员对梦境的研究，因此选A项。
10．C　研究表明某些神经元或脑细胞与具体的物体或概念有联系。be linked with“与……有关”。
11．A　particular“具体的”，与前文的certain相呼应。
12．B　Cerf博士说，如果建立确认不同神经元与概念、物体和人物联系的数据库的话，他们将能够“读出实验对象的思想”。make up“捏造”；bring up“抚养”；pick up“学习”，均与语境不符。
13．B　根据语境推知，Roderick Oner是一位研究梦的专家。
14．C　但是Roderick Oner博士说，用电子影像解释“复杂的梦境”是有限的。when it comes to“当涉及……的时候”。
15．A　通过手术将电极植入大脑。deep“深深地”，deeply“深刻地”。根据语境可知，A项正确。
16．C　根据后面的“treat them for brain disorder”可知，研究者们是从有内植电极的患者那里得到数据的。
17．A　不过，Cerf博士希望下一阶段人们将能够控制患者的脑部紊乱，但不再使用侵入性外科手术。本句与上一段的叙述有转折关系。
18．B　period“时期”；stage“阶段”；circumstance“环境”；situation“局面”。根据前面的later判断，答案为B项。
19．D　根据上文“read the subject’s minds”可知，研究人员试图解读人们的思想。因此用“minds”。
20．C　他说如果能够读懂昏迷患者的思想那可是“太棒了”，因为他们不能与医生交流。
Ⅱ.阅读理解(共4小题；每小题2分，满分8分)
阅读下面短文，从每题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出最佳选项。
Pupils don’t often think their teachers really exist outside the school gates; now robot classroom assistants could make this a reality.Almost 30 egg-shaped robots have started teaching English at primary schools in South Korea.
The 3.3-foot-high machines have a TV panel (仪表盘), which displays a female face, and can wheel around the classroom while speaking to the students.The robots are also able to read books and dance to music, moving their heads and arms.But despite appearances, the robots are not autonomous beings.They are actually controlled remotely by English teachers living in the Philippines, who can see and hear the children by a remote control system.Cameras then detect the teachers’ facial expressions and reflect them on the panel face.
Apart from reading books, the robots use pre-programmed software to sing songs and play alphabet games with the children.The kids seem to love them since the robots look cute and interesting.Some adults also express interest, saying they may feel less nervous talking to robots than to a real person.
The robots are still being tested.But officials might consider hiring them full time, if scientists upgrade them and make them easier to handle and more affordable.“Having robots in the classroom makes the students more active in class, especially shy ones afraid of speaking out to human teachers，” said Education official Kim Mi-Young.
Some may be sent to remote rural areas of South Korea avoided by foreign English teachers.The robots, which cost ￡5,600 each, will provide extra support for teachers, but not replace them.Ms Mi-Young added, “Well-educated, experienced Filipino teachers are far cheaper than any teachers elsewhere, including South Korea.But robot teachers won’t complain about health insurance, sick leave and severance package (遣散费), or leave in three months for a better-paying job in Japan … All you need is a repair and upgrade every once in a while.”
(　　)1.What is the main idea of the passage?
A．The most advanced robots go public.
B．People find a good way to learn English.
C．Robots teach English in class.
D．Improving the relationship between humans and robots.
(　　)2.What does the underlined word “autonomous” in Paragraph 2 probably mean?
A．Unable to speak. B．Acting independently.
C．Being under repair. D．Having memories.
(　　)3.According to the passage, the robot teachers ________ .
A．can speak two different foreign languages
B．can wheel around the classroom
C．have been hired full time to teach English in South Korea
D．demand more than human teachers
(　　)4.What can we learn from the passage?
A．The robot teachers will take the place of human teachers.
B．The English level of South Korea children has decreased because of the robot teachers.
C．The robot teachers are popular with children as well as adults.
D．The teachers in South Korea are willing to teach in the rural areas.
【解题导语】本文是一篇科技说明文，介绍了韩国一种可以教英语的机器人。
1．C　主旨大意题。综合分析全文和第一段中的“Almost 30 egg-shaped robots have started teaching English at primary schools… ”可知，文章介绍了韩国一种可以教英语的机器人。
2．B　词义猜测题。由后文的“They are actually controlled remotely by English teachers …”可知，机器人是被英语老师远程操控的，因而可推测出该词义为“自主的”。
3．B　细节理解题。从文章第二段的“… can wheel around the classroom while speaking to the students.”可知，机器人老师会围着教室转。
4．C　细节理解题。从文章第三段的“The kids seem to love them since the robots look cute and interesting.Some adults also express interest… ”可知，不光孩子们喜欢机器人老师，连成年人也很感兴趣。

One Sunday morning， George Thomas， a baker in a small New England town， was walking through the town when he saw a young boy coming toward him， swinging(挥舞) a bird cage in the air. On the bottom of the cage， there were three little wild birds shaking with cold and fear. George Thomas stopped the boy and asked him what he got there.
The boy was happy and told him that there were just some old birds in the cage. When the baker asked him what he would do with the old birds. The boy said casually(漫不经心地) that he wanted to take the birds home and play with them. He would pull out their feathers to make them fight. He would have a really good time because he would enjoy watching these.
George Thomas was shocked by what the boy said. How could a boy be so rude to wild animals？ So he continued to ask the boy what he would do to the birds when he got tired of them， because he was such a naughty and cruel boy that he was sure to be tired of them sooner or later. The boy laughed and said that he got a cat， which liked birds， so he would give the birds to his cat. The baker got more worried and decided to help set free the poor birds. So he asked， “How much do you want for those birds， son？”
The boy looked at him in surprise， wondering if the baker really wanted to buy them. He laughed and reminded the man that they were just plain old field birds. The didn't sing； they were not even pretty. However， the baker insisted and continued to ask him how much money he wanted for the birds.
The boy stared at the baker as if he were crazy and said， “$10？”

The baker reached in his pocket and took out a ten dollar bill. He placed in the boy's hand and told him to take the money. The boy grasped the money firmly as if he was afraid that the baker would change his mind. In a flash， the excited boy was gone. The baker looked at the boy walking away and shook his head. Then， he looked at the cage with three little wild birds.
Paragraph 2：
The baker picked up the cage. And he gently carried it to the end of the alley where there was a big tree and a grassy spot. Setting the cage down， he opened the door. And by softly tapping the bars he persuaded the birds out， setting them free. The baker watched the birds flying in the sky， smiling. He took the empty bird cage home， singing all the way.

②when　句意：昨天，她刚做完作业妈妈就叫她练习弹钢琴。when在此为并列连词，表示“这时(突然)”。

从一战中转战回来，曾经担任过律师的年轻人在加利福尼亚开始工作时，爱因斯坦已经举世闻名了。【句式分析】
returning from the First World War为现在分词短语在句中作后置定语修饰ex－lawyer，相当于一个定语从句。
Do you know the man sitting there?
你认识坐在那里的那个人吗？
They live in the house facing south.
他们住在朝南的那所房子里。【语法填空】
①The lecture，________(start)at 7：00 pm last night, was followed by an observing of the moon with telescopes.

③The book ________(lie)on the desk ________(belong)to her.④When I got back home, I saw a message pinned to the door ________(read) “Sorry to miss you；I will call later”．
【答案】①starting　考查非谓语动词。根据last night 可知start 已经发生。此处为现在分词作后置定语。
②indicating；interrupting　主语The bell与indicate之间是主谓关系，故要用v.－ing形式作定语修饰主语the bell；interrupting短语在句中作结果状语。③lying；belongs　lying on the desk是v.－ing短语在句中作定语修饰主语the book；belong to无被动语态。
④reading　reading短语在句中作a message定语。3．Using the most high－powered telescope of the time, he began the long, slow process of exploring our galaxy.
凭借一台当时倍数最高的望远镜，他开始了对我们银河系漫长且缓慢的探索过程。
【句式分析】
本句中现在分词短语Using the most high－powered telescope of the time作方式状语。现在分词(短语)作状语时，还可表示时间、原因、结果、伴随状况等。【拓展】Westerners eat their food, using a fork and knife.
西方人用刀叉吃东西。(方式状语)
Hearing the news, they all jumped with joy.
听到这个消息时，他们都高兴得跳了起来。(时间状语)The little girl dropped the bottle of milk on the ground, breaking it into pieces.
小女孩把牛奶瓶掉到了地上，牛奶瓶碎了。(结果状语)
注意：现在分词(短语)作状语时，其逻辑主语一般要与句子主语保持一致。Not knowing the language, I found it hard to communicate with local people.
因不懂当地语言，我发现与当地人交流很困难。
Having been shown around the lab, we were led into a big hall.
他们领我们参观了实验室，之后带我们到了一个大厅。【语法填空】
①The news shocked the public，________(lead) to great concern about students' safety at school.

⑤他们站在路边为的是谈论这个计划。
They stood by the roadside, ____________.⑥决定好目的地后，我们开始为旅程做详细的计划。
______________， we began to make a detailed plan for the trip.
【答案】①leading　考查非谓语动词。句意为：这个消息使公众震惊，也引起了人们对学生在校安全的关注。The news和lead之间是主谓关系，并作shocked的伴随状语。②hoping　考查非谓语动词。此处现在分词短语hoping that I'd do as much for him作伴随状语。句意：Tony借了钱给我，希望我加倍还他。
③living；wondering　句意：29岁时，大卫是一名工人，居住在波士顿附近的一座小公寓里，对于他的未来还一片茫然。根据句意及句式结构可知，live和wonder的逻辑主语都是Dave，所以要使用现在分词短语作定语。
④Given more attention
⑤talking about the plan
⑥Having decided the destination 4．He double－checked and saw a blue mould in the dish around which the bacteria had been destroyed.
他仔细检查了一下，看到碟子里有一种蓝色的霉斑，其周围的细菌都被消灭了。
【句式分析】
这是一个主从复合句。He double－checked and saw a blue mould in the dish是主句，around which the bacteria had been destroyed是一个定语从句，修饰the dish。“介词＋which＋从句”作定语，修饰名词，可以作限制性定语从句，也可以作非限制性定语从句，此时，不能用that代替which；当介词置于从句的末尾时，that可以代替which。
类似的结构：“介词＋whom＋从句”修饰人。【拓展】We are sitting in a classroom in front of which there is a tall tree.
我们正坐在教室里，教室的前面有一棵高高的树。
Fang Yonggang is a Communist Party member from whom we can learn how to read the spirits about our Party's policy.

A．who　 B．which　　　　
C．why　 D．when③Frank's dream was to have his own shop ______ to produce the workings of his own hands.
A．that　 B．in which
C．by which　 D．how
④Another unmanned spacecraft “Shenzhou Ⅱ”， ________China greets the 21st century, marks new progress in the country's space program.
A．for which　 B．from which
C．in which　 D．with which【答案】①C　考查定语从句。前后两句话之间无连词，故不能用人称代词them而应用关系代词whom引导定语从句；在46个学生当中，表所属，应用of。故答案选C。
②D　when此处为关系副词，引导定语从句，修饰先行词occasions。
③B　in which(＝in the shop)引导定语从句修饰先行词shop。
④D　只要把从句部分转换为China greets the 21st century with Shenzhou Ⅱ就不难看出答案为D项。5．During the Second World War, when Fleming's discovery was first helping to cure people, the US Navy was looking for ways of improving the accuracy of their missiles.
二战期间，当弗莱明的发现首先用来为人们治病时，这时美国海军正在寻找能提高他们导弹精准度的方法。
【句式分析】
这是一个主从复合句。句中when引导的是时间状语从句，the US…missiles是主句。过去进行时表示过去某时正在进行的状态或动作。常用的时间状语有：this morning, the whole morning, from nine to ten，last evening, when, while等。【拓展】【单项选择】
①—Did you catch what I said?
—Sorry.I________ a text message just now.
A．had answered　 B．have answered
C．would answer　 D．was answering
②The way that he did it was different ________ we were used to.
A．in which　 B．in what
C．from what　 D．from which③—Is there anything wrong, Bob? You look sad.
—Oh, nothing much.In fact, I ________of my friends.
A．have just thought
B．was just thinking
C．would just think
D．will just be thinking
【完成句子】
④她在五岁时开始学英语。
She began to learn English _____________.
⑤他们本该工作，却在那里闲聊。
They were chatting _________________.【答案】①D　考查动词时态。句意为：“你听懂我所说的话了吗？”“对不起。我刚刚在回短信。”根据句意及时间状语just now可知，回短信的动作正好是发生在问话人说话的那一时间点，即表示过去某一时间点正在发生的动作，故用过去进行时态，选D。
②C　be different from是固定搭配，故可排除A、B两项；what引导宾语从句，又在宾语从句中作宾语，这是which所不具有的用法，故C项正确。③B　过去进行时表示过去某时正在进行的状态或动作，故选B项。根据所提供的情景可判断出，“我”刚才想起了自己的朋友。现在完成时表示已经完成的动作或存在的状态。过去将来时表示从过去某个时间看将要或将来发生的事。一般将来时表示将要发生的动作或存在的状态。
④when she was five
⑤when they should have been workingUnit 20　Period Five

Ⅱ.阅读理解(共4小题；每小题2分，满分8分)
阅读下面短文，从每题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出最佳选项。
Quicker and faster 3-D printers have allowed not just amazing objects to be created, but have started to affect how doctors treat patients.
We’ve put together a list of some of the most amazing medical breakthroughs made possible with 3-D printing.
Life-Saving Airway
In 2013, doctors created a new airway for Kaiba Gionfriddo, a boy born with an airway that kept collapsing (萎陷)．To save his life doctors printed tiny tubes to join together in different shapes and sizes until one finally worked for Kaiba.It was placed in Kaiba’s bronchus (支气管) so that it no longer collapsed.Even more remarkably, once the plant was placed it could stay there.It’s designed to eventually be absorbed into the body.
New “Bionic” Hands
One of the most remarkable ways 3-D printing is now being used is as a way to create prosthetics (假肢)．A boy born without an arm named Alex was able to get a new “bionic” hand thanks to it.Last year a college student spent 8 weeks coming up with a special prosthetic design that only cost a few hundred dollars in materials.He said he wanted to create a prosthetic far cheaper than other choices that can run tens of thousands of dollars.
A Practice Heart
In Seattle, doctors have been able to use 3-D printing technology to “practice” risky operations so that they will face fewer surprises in the operating room.Kami Sutton was born with her heart “in the wrong place”．For a recent operation her doctor was able to take many scans of Sutton’s heart and print out a model.“Kami’s heart is truly one-of-a-kind，” Dr.Stephan Seslar, a heart disease specialist said.“Operating on her without understanding the structure of her heart better could be very dangerous.”
A New Skull
A U．K.man was able to have part of his skull rebuilt thanks to a 3-D printer.Stephen Power broke his cheek bones in a crash.To help Power his doctors instead created 3-D bones all carefully printed in the shape of his face.“This is really the first time we’ve taken it to this stage, where everything has been planned and modeled in advance — and worked sweetly，” said Adrian Sugar, a doctor.
(　　)1.What is special about the 3-D printed airway?
A．It uses high-tech materials.
B．It varies in shapes and sizes.
C．It can be absorbed by the body.
D．It can prevent any disease in the airway.
(　　)2.What is the advantage of the new “bionic” hand?
A．Its price.　　　 B．Its effects.
C．Its materials.　 D．Its shape design.
(　　)3.How can 3-D printing technology help doctors in the operating room?
A．It helps them get better scans.
B．It guarantees the success of operations.
C．It enables them to practice and learn more.
D．It helps them to deal with patients’ anxiety.
(　　)4.What does Adrian Sugar think of the new skull printed by 3-D technology?
A．He has doubts about it. B．He thinks highly of it.
C．It needs to be better planned. D．It functions well but needs improving.
【解题导语】本文是说明文。文章主要介绍了3-D打印技术在医疗上的应用。
1．C　细节理解题。由Life-Saving Airway一节中的“Even more remarkably … It’s designed to eventually be absorbed into the body.”可知，3-D打印的人工气管能最终被人体吸收。
2．A　推理判断题。由New “Bionic” Hands一节中的“a special prosthetic design that only cost a few hundred dollars in materials … a prosthetic far cheaper than other choices that can run tens of thousands of dollars”可知，3-D打印的仿生手优势在于其成本低。
3．C　推理判断题。由A Practice Heart一节中的“to ’practice’ risky operations”和“For a recent operation her doctor … print out a model.”可知，3-D打印的心脏能帮助医生在真正动手术之前多练习手术步骤。
4．B　推理判断题。由最后一段中的“This is really the first time we’ve taken it to this stage, where everything has been planned and modeled in advance — and worked sweetly…”可知，Adrian Sugar认为3-D打印的头骨效果很好。
Ⅲ.七选五阅读(共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分)

To Live Truly in Today
Here are some suggestions on how we should truly live in today. __1__ If we’re out in the town, then the shops and other people will surround us. If we’re in our kitchen, then our kitchen appliances and the sunlight coming in through our window will surround us.
Listen to those you meet. When we’re with other people and they’re talking, how often do we listen? __2__ We may be nodding, but our minds may be thinking of financial worries, or we may be waiting for the other person to finish their sentence so that we can jump straight in with what we have to say. None of this is true “listening”. In order to truly listen to someone, we must be in the present.__3__ Hang on every word, and give them the freedom to say what they wish without judgment. By truly listening, you remain in the present with each passing word.
__4__ Each day, we have a number of things that we need to do, or that we’d like to do, or simply that we could do. Focus on one day’s work at a time, rather than a number of days at once. Find all that needs to be done on that day, and nothing else. If something can be put off, then do so and replace it with something else that is more urgent. __5__ Focus on that, and nothing else.
A．Focus on what has to be done today.
B．To be aware of the past and the future.
C．We may even find ways to avoid it altogether.
D．Unfortunately, we don’t seem to listen that much at all.
E．Once you know what work is the most urgent, then do it.
F．We must really hear what they have to say and not be distracted by our worries.
G．No matter where we find ourselves, we are always surrounded by our immediate environment.
【解题导语】本文是一篇关于我们应该如何真正生活在今天的建议。
1．G　根据后句“If we’re out in the town, then the shops and other people will surround us. If we’re in our kitchen, then our kitchen appliances and the sunlight coming in through our window will surround us.”的两个举例可知，无论我们身处何处，我们总是被周围的环境所包围。故选G。
2．D　根据前句“When we’re with other people and they’re talking, how often do we listen？”可知，这里为对此问句的回答，不幸的是，我们似乎听不到那么多。故选D。
3．F　根据前句“In order to truly listen to someone, we must be in the present.”和后句“Hang on every word, and give them the freedom to say what they wish without judgment.”可知，我们必须真正听取他们的意见，不要被我们的忧虑所分散。故选F。
4．A　这里为本段的中心句。结合上一段中心句可知，这里应该是一个动词原形开头的祈使句，再结合本段内容。故选A。
5．E　根据前句“If something can be put off, then do so and replace it with something else that is more urgent.”可知，一旦你知道什么是最紧急的工作，那么就去做。故选E。

Dear Tom,
How are you?
To begin with, please accept my sincere apology for not replying to your last letter in time. During those days, I'd been busy preparing for the final exam which was very important to me. Now summer vacation is approaching, during which time I want to do many things, one of which is making a trip to some places of interest together with a few of my good friends, aiming to broaden our horizons. Additionally, being a volunteer is another thing I want to do, from which I can benefit a lot. At last, I'd like to do a part－time job, with the purpose of knowing more about society and, at the same time, I can earn some money, which can be called killing two birds with one stone. What do you think of my plan? Hope you could come to China in your spare time and have a wonderful time with us.
Best wishes!

________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________【答案】
Nowadays the science and technology of robot has been a rapid development.I believe the robots will play a very important role in the future，taking over many difficult jobs and making people’s life easier.No doubt，people have their own different ideas about robots and I am no exception.In my opinion，it is hoped that the robots will display their skills in looking after the younger and the elder people，who need others’ help more than any other group.For example，the robots are expected to be able to teach the younger children the basic knowledge.Apart from that，the elder who have difficulty in moving and communicating can also benefit from the robots.
In a word，it is believed that the science and technology of robot will help us more in the future life.

Dear Student Body，
Since canoeing (划独木舟) has become more popular in recent years, the Outdoor Club has decided to offer an exciting opportunity for students to explore their surroundings.In the past, the club has gone hiking, bicycling, and fishing.This year, the Outdoor Club members would like to invite all interested students at Redland Oaks Junior High School to go along on a canoeing-nature tour of Canyon Lake.The group will leave this Saturday at 9：00 am from the main entrance to Canyon Lake State Park.Students don’t need to be a member of the club to enjoy the journey.
The main focus of the nature tour will be to observe the various species of birds found in the area.The Canyon Lake Bird-watchers Club reports that the variety of species and number of birds in the area have increased greatly over the past five years.Many bird-watchers have found the area to be a great place to take photos of their favorite local birds.Tour guides will be on hand to answer any questions about the birds.Be sure to bring a notepad to write down anything you may find interesting.
The tour guides will meet us at the entrance to Canyon Lake State Park.After a general introduction, the guides will go over the safety rules, and then the students will break into pairs.Each guide will then take one pair of students on a tour of the lake.
The Outdoor Club will provide canoes, oars (桨) and life jackets.Students, however, will need to supply their own sunscreen, sunglasses, and hats.It is going to be a hot day, so please do not forget this equipment.
The Outdoor Club looks forward to seeing you on this exciting tour.
Sincerely，

The latest technology inventions in 3D printing are rapidly changing how things are being made.
At the International Manufacturing (制造业) Technology Show in Chicago, a little-known car maker became popular by manufacturing a car at the show.
It was a fully functional car that was 3D printed in 44 hours and assembled (装配) in two days.The car is called a “Strati”， Italian for layers, so named by its designer Michele Anoe because the entire structure of the car is made from different layers of materials.
The average car has more than 20,000 parts but this latest technology reduces the number of parts to 40.“The goal here is to get the number of parts down and to drop the tooling costs to almost zero，” said John B．Rogers Jr., chief manager of Local Motors.“Cars are ridiculously complex，” he added, referring to the thousands of bits and pieces that are sourced, assembled and connected to make a vehicle.
This technology can use a variety of materials to manufacture anything in complicated detail.Imagine if you could order a new car online according to your needs and pick it up or have it delivered to you the next day at a small part of the cost of buying one from a shop? What if you could make small parts at a lower cost rather than buying them from a parts’ supplier? What a great change would that be for the industry? It’s already happening.
One of the challenges with collecting antique (古老的) cars is replacing parts.You can’t buy them because they’re not in use and it’s difficult to find the parts that fit.But now people can use 3D printing technology to make parts for their cars.
John B．Rogers Jr.believes that in the near future a car will be made in just 60 minutes.The company is already organizing a worldwide network of “Microfactories” where you can order and pick up your personalized car.
(　　)4.What impressed people deeply at the show?
A．A car maker. B．A 3D-printed car.
C．The variety of cars. D．Technology inventions.
(　　)5.What do we know about the “Strati” car?
A．It’s a model car. B．It was made in Italy.
C．It has over 2,000 parts. D．It was made within four days.
(　　)6.The questions in Paragraph 5 are raised to ________.
A．analyse the latest technology B．challenge traditional car makers
C．explain how the change happened D．show the advantage of the technology
(　　)7.What is John B．Rogers Jr.’s attitude towards the technology?
A．Positive.　　　 B．Doubtful.
C．Surprised.　 D．Disappointed.

7．A　推理判断题。由最后一段可知， John B．Rogers Jr.对于这一技术的前景很有信心，故选A项。
C
The idea of robot rulers, friends and lovers has been a topic of science fiction novels for years.
But according to one mathematical model of how our brains create consciousness, emotional machines will never exist.
This is because computers can’t handle any process that completely integrates (整合) information, so they cannot be conscious or feel, one expert says.
A mathematical model for consciousness, developed by Giulio Tononi at the University of Wisconsin-Madison, says that the ability to integrate information is a key feature of consciousness.
He believes that integrated information can’t be broken down into smaller pieces in conscious minds, because the brain contextualizes (将……融入背景) information.
For example, when we see a red circle our brains don’t see the shape as a colourless circle plus a shapeless coloured area, New Scientist reported.Instead we see it as a whole — a red circle; we understand the “wider picture”．
It’s easy enough for machines to edit a collection of individual images, but memories are made up of a bank of intertwined (相互交织的) images and experiences and cannot be changed in the same way.
Researchers have used mathematics to show that computers cannot handle the complex processes needed to fit pieces of information together perfectly.
Therefore, if consciousness is based on the integration of lots of pieces of information, computers can’t be conscious and can’t experience emotions like humans.
Professor Phil Maguire of the National University of Ireland in Maynooth says that consciousness cannot be created in a physical machine in limited time using limited memory.
“It doesn’t necessarily mean that there is some magic going on in the brain that involves some forces that can’t be explained physically.It is just so complex that it’s beyond our abilities to change it，” he said.
His research may mean that lonely humans will not find love with a robot; they are unlikely to be made their slaves either.
(　　)8.Why do experts think emotional machines won’t exist？　
A．Machines can’t solve problems.
B．Machines can’t handle information.
C．Machines can’t integrate information.
D．Machines can’t communicate with people.
(　　)9.The example mentioned in Paragraph 6 is used to show ________.
A．machines cannot feel
B．the brain has consciousness
C．the brain can contextualize information
D．machines can recognize shapes and colours
(　　)10.It can be learned from the text that ________.
A．machines can edit intertwined images
B．the idea of robot lovers won’t come true
C．robots can fit pieces of information together perfectly
D．computers can experience emotions like humans one day
【解题导语】本文是说明文，主要说明了机器人是永远不会有感情的。
8．C　细节理解题。由第三段中的“computers can’t handle any process that completely integrates information”和第四段中的“the ability to integrate information is a key feature of consciousness”可知，计算机没有整合信息的能力，所以没有意识。
9．C　细节理解题。由第五、六段的描述可知，大脑可以整合信息，第六段举例来说明这一论点。
10．B　推理判断题。由最后一段可知，机器人爱人的情形不可能出现。

【解题导语】本文是说明文。文章主要介绍了古典音乐的形式及历史。
11．E　由上文中的“in Western parts of the world people use the term classical music to refer to art music”以及该空后的“Classical music is more complex.”可知，E项“艺术音乐，或古典音乐，不同于流行音乐和民间音乐”符合此处语境。

【解题导语】作者通过自己的经历和感悟向我们讲述了为什么逆境能帮助我们成功。正所谓：只有经历风雨，才能见彩虹。
16．D　上一句说作者家里不富裕(not so well off)，所以作者能理解父母所遭受的“困难(hardships)”。第二段的第二句也有暗示。poverty“贫穷”有很大的干扰，但该词含义较窄，不符合语境。
17．B　前后句是因果关系。因为理解了父母所遭受的困难，所以作者才努力学习，希望考上大学。therefore“因此”。
18．A　由语境可知，作者想通过努力学习来改变自己和家庭的境况。situation“情况，状况”。下一段也有提示。
19．B　根据语境可知，作者认为艰难的处境能激发一个人的潜力，为其铺好成功的道路。所以选stimulate，“激发，激励”。seek“寻找”；shape“塑造”；secure“保护”，均不符合语境。
20．B　success“成功”；failure“失败”；pleasure“高兴，愉快”；recreation“娱乐，消遣”。由上下文可知选B。
21．D　这几个词中只有faithful“忠诚的”和strong, brave同属于经受困难后形成的品质。awful“很坏的”；careful“仔细的，谨慎的”；greedy“贪婪的”。
22．D　look through“浏览”；get through“顺利通过，拨通(电话)”；see through“看透”；go through“经历(苦难等)”。一个人只有经历了所有这些苦难之后，才会变得坚强、勇敢和忠诚。故选D。
23．B　withstand“经受住，承受”。这里是作者打的比方：温室里的花朵是经不起暴风雨的。
24．D　through在此意为“通过”，表示方式。
25．A　from the bottom of one’s heart意思是“真心地；真诚地”。句意：我有一个幸福的童年，我的父母不仅真心爱我，他们还给了我提高能力的机会。
26．C　attach importance to“重视”。父母非常重视对“我的”零花钱的管理。approach“接近，靠近”；attain (经过努力)“获得，得到”； attempt“试图，尝试”，均不符合语境。
27．D　这里说的是父母对“我的”零花钱管理的“结果(consequence)”：口袋空空，只能看着别人吃糖。
28．A　这段经历使“我”意识到，为了谋生父母在辛苦地工作，将来“我”也会这样。realize“意识到”，符合语境。
29．B　as the saying goes意思是“正如谚语所说的那样”，是固定用法。
30．C　It is obvious that …“很明显……”。很明显，一个人小时候的生活方式在他一生的发展中起着重要的作用。
31．B　bring up“抚养”。一个人如果在一个爱挥霍的家庭里长大，当他长大后很有可能会变得懒惰。bring in“引入，赚得”；bring about“引起，导致”；bring out“使显现”，均不符合语境。
32．A　这里说的是生长在困难家庭中的孩子长大后的特点，与前面说的生长在爱挥霍的家庭中的孩子长大后的特点形成对比，所以应该选on the contrary，“正相反”。
33．D　be bound to“一定”。相反，孩提时代生活艰难的孩子，为了迎接挑战，学会了自立和节俭，这样他一定会很强大。be ready to do sth.“愿意做某事”；be anxious to do sth.“渴望做某事”；be determined to do sth.“决心做某事”。
34．B　apart from“除了……(还有)”，在这里相当于besides。except表示“除……之外”；away from“远离”；more than“超过”。
35．C　这里指不能“溺爱(spoil)”孩子。
第二节(共10小题；每小题1.5分，满分15分)
阅读下面材料，在空白处填入1个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。
Online shopping is coming into fashion in most cities, where people are able to make full use of the rapidly-developed Internet technology.Nowadays, can we find a person 36.________ hasn’t experienced online shopping? Definitely not.
Online shopping 37.________(welcome) by most people due to various reasons.From the perspective (视角) of the consumer, it can save some time for people who don’t have much spare time.Just click the mouse, they can get 38.________ they want while staying at home.For the retailers (零售商), it can cut some costs for those who don’t have much circulating funds.

【解题导语】本文主要讨论了网络购物如此受欢迎的原因。
36．who/that　先行词为“a person”，引导词在定语从句中作主语，指代人，故用who或that。
37．is welcomed　动词welcome与“online shopping”是动宾关系，且此处表示现在的情况，故用一般现在时的被动语态。
38．whatever/what　所填词引导宾语从句，表示“(任何)……的东西”，故填whatever或what。
39．Compared　compared with …(与……相比较)作状语，compare与it为动宾关系，故用过去分词形式。
40．However　根据语境分析，前面阐述了网络购物的好处，然后介绍的是缺点，所填词表示转折关系，再根据空格后面的逗号分析，此空应该填however。
41．disadvantages　根据some可知，此处填名词disadvantage的复数形式disadvantages。
42．It　根据句子结构可知，句子的真正主语是that引导的从句，故空格处应填形式主语it。
43．society　根据语境分析，此处指现代“社会”，故填名词society。
44．growth　根据空格前的“with the rapid”和后面的介词of可知，用名词growth。
45．being cheated　of为介词，其后接动名词，且cheat与we为动宾关系，故填being cheated。

第二节　读后续写(满分25分)
阅读下面短文，根据所给情节进行续写，使之构成一个完整的故事。
After 21 years of marriage， my wife wanted me to take another woman out to dinner and a movie. It's hard to imagine that the other woman was my mother， who has been a widow(寡妇) for 19 years， but I am too busy to visit her often. That night I called to invite her to go out for dinner and a movie.
“What's wrong？Are you well？” she asked. My mother is the type of woman who suspects (怀疑) that a late night call or a surprise invitation is a sign of bad news.
“I thought that it would be pleasant to spend some time with you， ” I answered，“Just the two of us.”
That Friday after work， as I drove to pick her up I was a bit nervous. When I arrived at her
house， I noticed that she， too， seemed to be nervous about our date. She waited in the door with her coat on. She had curled her hair and was wearing the dress that she had worn to celebrate her last wedding anniversary. She smiled from a face that was as beautiful as an angel's.
“I told my friends that I was going to go out with my son， and they were impressed，” she said， as she got into the car. “They can't wait to hear about our meeting.”
We went to a restaurant that， although not the best， was very nice and comfortable. My mother took my arm as if she were the First Lady. After we sat down， I had to read the menu. Her eyes could only read large print. Halfway through the entries， I lifted my eyes and saw Mom sitting there staring at me with a smile on her lips.
“It was I who used to have to read the menu when you were small，” she said.
“Then it's time you relax and let me return the favor，” I responded.
During the dinner， we had an agreeable conversation－nothing special but catching up
on recent events of each others' life. We talked so much that we missed the movie.

【答案】
One possible version：
Paragraph 1：
As we arrived at her house later， she said， “I'll go out with you again， but only if you let me invite you.”　I agreed. When I got home， my wife prepared a rich dinner for me. I sat down and talked with her about my feeling together with my mother. My wife was proud of what she did for me. She said when she was young， she was very naughty， and her mother often punished her for her wrong does. Later when she grew up she became aware of her mother's heart. But her mother died of lung cancer and she never had time to thank her. So she decided to ask me to invite my mother to eat out. I kissed her with my eyes full of tears.
Paragraph 2：
At that moment I understood the importance of saying in time “I LOVE YOU.” I thanked my wife and that dinner date was another time for me to remember. You can hardly imagine how happy I am to have the chance to say these words and return the favor in time. Nothing in the world is more important than this.
课件10张PPT。Space tourism
Many people still think that to get the chance to go to space you've got to try to be an astronaut.Unfortunately, the chance of becoming a government astronaut is tiny, simply because there are so few—and there's no prospect of a lot more being employed.However, don't despair.Far more people will go to space as visitors.But it will be expensive, so you had better start saving your money.The price of a return flight to Earth may drop from what it costs now, but estimates vary. The target of the Space Tourism Study Program of the Japanese Rocket Society is to bring the price down to about 1 million yen(about US $10,000), on a turnover of about 1 million passengers per year. However, the demand is expected to be so strong that in the early stages prices will be considerably higher—perhaps 5 million yen($50,000)．As the number of vehicles grows, the number of flights will increase, and prices will fall to 2 million yen over 5～10 years, and then to 1 million yen if possible.We know that most people would like to stay in orbit for a few days or more.And this stands to reason, if you're paying $20,000 for your trip to orbit! So in order for space tourism to reach its full potential, there's going to be a need for orbital accommodation—or space hotels.These will grow through phases, starting with “lodges” for up to about 100 guests, growing to true hotels of several hundred guests, and eventually to orbiting “theme parks” for many thousands of guests.What would a space hotel actually be like to visit? Hotel in orbit will offer the services you expect from a hotel: private rooms, meals, bars.But they'll also offer fantastic views of Earth and space and the endless entertainment of space－walking.A trip to a hotel will start with launch to orbit, which takes about five minutes of powered acceleration, followed by up to a few hours of weightlessness approaching the hotel (depending on the flight schedule). Docking will be rather like an airliner parking at an airport—but you'll leave the cabin floating in zero－G(zero gravity) along the access tube, holding on to a cable with your hands!Of course all good things have to come to an end, unfortunately.And so after a few days you'll find yourself heading back through the docking point to the returning vehicle—though you'll be much more expert at manoeuvring in zero－G than you were when you arrived! You'll be thinking how soon you can save up enough to get back up again—or maybe you should change jobs to get to work in an orbiting hotel!1．佳句仿写
