一、阅读理解
A
“You
know,the
soft
subjects,”
says
the
boy
in
maths,“the
easy
ones:the
stupid
girls
at
the
bottom
take
them.Like
dance.It
shouldn’t
even
be
a
subject.”
We’re
choosing
subjects
for
our
A-level
taster
day
at
school.I
see
the
raised
eyebrows
when
I
explain
two
of
my
GCSE
(General
Certificate
of
Secondary
Education)
choices
are
dance
and
drama.
I
was
told
by
advisers
that
dance
and
drama
wouldn’t
help
me
to
get
a
suitable
career.My
friends
told
me
I’d
get
bored
of
dance
and
switch
to
science
within
the
first
month.
But
taking
GCSE
dance
was
the
best
decision
I
ever
made.Dance
gives
me
something
to
pour
my
head
and
heart
into.It
gives
me
a
feeling
of
belonging,creativity,security
and
freedom.
The
education
secretary
Nicky
Morgan
has
put
emphasis
on
science,technology,engineering
and
maths
(STEM),saying
that
students
who
focus
on
the
arts
risk
their
careers.Stopping
young
people
from
expressing
themselves
at
such
a
young
age
is
not
doing
them
any
favours.Perhaps
Nicky
Morgan
has
forgotten
to
open
the
door
of
having
a
drive
to
study
that
subject
day
in,day
out.It
shouldn’t
matter
what
that
subject
is.
I
don’t
doubt
the
influence
that
STEM
subjects
can
have
on
the
people
that
love
them.But
to
force
children
into
one
field
is
cruel.As
much
as
I
try,I’m
not
good
at
and
don’t
love
physics,biology
or
maths.I
don’t
want
a
career
in
these
areas.
There
has
been
a
decrease
in
the
number
of
state
schools
offering
arts
subjects
taught
by
specialist
teachers.I
can’t
even
imagine
how
it
feels
to
be
told
that
you
don’t
teach
a
“real
subject”
by
an
8-year-old
boy.
To
the
teachers,the
parents,the
government
I
say:Let
children
make
their
own
decisions.Let
them
live
in
the
present.Let
them
have
a
real,unlimited
education.

B
Have
you
ever
caught
yourself
saying,“I
hate
small
talk!”
the
minute
you
walk
into
a
party?
If
so,you
might
be
an
introvert
(内向的人).Introverts
hate
to
chat
about
“small”
subjects
with
people.They
are
fine
when
you
talk
one
on
one
but
seem
to
get
lost
in
the
crowd
when
there’s
a
group
around.
If
you’re
talking
to
an
introvert,you
might
find
that
your
first
few
conversations
go
one
of
two
ways.Either
they’ll
seem
to
get
bored
and
not
say
much
or
they’ll
seem
to
skate
over
small
talk
in
favor
of
more
in-depth
topics.What
you
need
to
know
is
that
the
introvert
is
not
being
rude.It’s
just
that
they
don’t
like
small
talk.Here’s
why.
Small
talk
serves
as
a
gateway
toward
deeper
conversation.Some
introverts
don’t
realize
that
small
talk
will
actually
help
them
get
to
the
bigger
topics.You
don’t
need
to
stay
on
small
talk
forever.However,sometimes
introverts
feel
that
even
the
short
amount
of
time
it
takes
to
get
into
the
real
conversation
is
a
waste
of
time.Small
talk
is
very
fast.Someone
says
something
and
this
should
be
followed
up
with
a
quick
response.But
introverts
like
to
chew
on
their
words
before
saying
them
aloud.Before
they
answer,they’ll
mull
over
different
thoughts.?
Small
talk
by
its
very
nature
invites
more
people
to
join
in.The
more
people
who
join
the
conversation,the
more
the
introvert
will
tend
to
step
back.As
a
result,they’ll
be
quiet.Small
talk
is
about
throwing
out
subjects
in
the
hope
that
one
or
more
of
them
can
be
turned
into
a
common
point
of
interest.
The
listening
involved
with
small
talk
is
not
in-depth.The
purpose
is
about
listening
“lightly”
so
you
can
figure
out
the
right
topics
to
spend
some
time
on.Introverts
tend
to
be
great
listeners,but
they
use
active
listening
rather
than
light
listening.This
makes
them
wonderful
friends,but
can
also
make
it
difficult
for
new
people
to
understand
why
they’re
so
quiet.
【篇章导读】本文是说明文。文章介绍了内向的人不善于与人闲谈并解释了其原因。
4.How
do
introverts
respond
to
a
chat?
A.They
try
to
avoid
it.
B.They
get
excited
about
it.
C.They
give
it
their
full
attention.
D.They
focus
on
unimportant
topics.
答案A
解析细节理解题。根据第二段中的“Eitherthey’llseemtogetboredandnotsaymuchorthey’llseemtoskateoversmalltalk”可知,内向的人总想避开闲谈。skateover意为“回避,避免涉及”。
5.What
do
we
know
about
small
talk?
A.It
goes
slowly.
B.It
costs
people
a
lot
of
time.
C.It
contributes
to
deeper
topics.
D.It
provides
much
useful
information.
答案C
解析细节理解题。根据第三段中的“Smalltalkservesasagatewaytowarddeeperconversation”可知,闲谈有助于向深层次对话导入。
6.What
does
the
underlined
phrase
“mull
over”
in
Paragraph
3
probably
mean?
A.Give
up.
B.Think
over.
C.Write
down.
D.Forget
about.
答案B
解析词义猜测题。根据第三段中的“Butintrovertsliketochewontheirwordsbeforesayingthemaloud”可知,内向的人在回答对方问题前会细细思量不同的想法。
7.How
can
we
become
a
good

in
small
conversations?
A.Figure
out
the
deep
meaning
of
questions.
B.Think
twice
before
answering
questions.
C.Try
to
find

listener.
答案C
解析推理判断题。根据倒数第二段中的“Smalltalkisaboutthrowingoutsubjectsinthehopethatoneormoreofthemcanbeturnedintoacommonpointofinterest”可知,想要成为好的闲谈者,我们需要找到共同话题。
二、七选五
Traveling
independently
for
the
first
time
can
be
stressful
if
you
don’t
plan
your
trip
carefully.In
Cuba,my
friends
and
I
really
learned
the
value
of
planning
ahead
and
being
responsible
tourists.So,before
you
set
off,take
a
look
at
my
list
of
useful
tips:
Planwhotogowith.
Think
about
your
travel
buddies
(朋友)
carefully.Traveling
with
just
one
person
has
its
advantages
and
disadvantages,but
traveling
in
a
group
isn’t
easy
either.In
a
group,everyone
wants
something
different.Be
patient
and
understanding,and
try
to
find
a
compromise. 1 And
remember:if
you
take
everyone’s
views
into
account
before
you
go,you
won’t
have
so
many
arguments!?
2 ?
Before
you
go,find
out
about
the
country’s
culture
and
look
up
some
basic
words
and
useful
phrases
in
the
local
language. 3 If
you
say
just
a
few
words
in
their
language,the
local
people
will
really
appreciate
it,and
everyone
will
feel
more
comfortable.?
Beresponsible.
It’s
really
important
to
be
a
responsible
tourist
and
to
try
to
support
the
local
economy. 4 We
stayed
in
private
homes
in
different
parts
of
Cuba.Our
hosts
were
really
kind-hearted
and
their
generosity
was
amazing.If
you
stay
with
a
family,you’ll
find
out
much
more
about
your
hosts’
culture
and
way
of
life. 5 Seeing
the
sights
and
learning
about
the
culture
with
local
Cubans
was
truly
exciting.If
we
had
stayed
in
a
hotel,we
wouldn’t
have
had
these
experiences.?
A.Do
your
homework.
B.Think
about
the
environment.
C.Don’t
be
embarrassed
by
your
accent.
D.I
decided
to
spend
the
summer
in
Cuba
with
some
friends.
E.Be
adaptable,so
that
you
can
deal
with
unexpected
changes.
F.For
example,why
not
stay
with
a
local
family
instead
of
in
a
big
hotel?
G.They
will
probably
take
you
to
places
the
guidebooks
don’t
tell
you
about.
答案与解析
【篇章导读】本文是说明文。作者通过亲身经历介绍了外出旅游之前的一些注意事项。
1.E E项中的“Beadaptable”与上文的“trytofindacompromise”相呼应。他认为跟好几个朋友一起出行时要学会妥协、善于应变,这样可以减少争论的发生。
2.A 由下文的“Beforeyougo,findoutaboutthecountry’scultureandlookupsomebasicwordsandusefulphrasesinthelocallanguage”可知,出行前要对目的地国家的文化和语言有基本的了解,也就是做功课。
3.C 由上下文的“somebasicwordsandusefulphrasesinthelocallanguage”和“sayjustafewwordsintheirlanguage”可知,作者认为会说一些当地的语言很重要,只要能说出来,不要担忧口音问题。
4.F F项中的建议“whynotstaywithalocalfamily”与文中作者提及他的亲身经历“WestayedinprivatehomesindifferentpartsofCuba”相呼应。
5.G 此段作者对比了住在当地人家中和住在旅店的不同。G项中的“They...takeyoutoplacestheguidebooksdon’ttellyouabout”和上文提到的“findoutmuchmoreaboutyourhosts’cultureandwayoflife”都是作者认为住在当地人家中的好处。

答案与解析
1.was
hit 考查一般过去时的被动语态。Jerry与hit之间是被动关系,且由时间状语OnDecember3,1982可知,设空处表示的动作发生在过去,故填washit。
2.him 考查代词。设空处做宾语,指代Jerry,故填him。
3.being 考查动词-ing形式做宾语的用法。enjoydoingsth.意为“喜欢做某事”。
4.a 考查不定冠词。liveanormallife意为“过着正常的生活”。
5.towards/to 考查介词。attitude后常跟介词towards/to,表示“对待……的态度”。
6.worker 考查名词。设空处做宾语,由“walkdownthelineandaskpeople‘whatdoyouneed?’”可知,此处表示“工作人员”,又因设空处前有a(n),故填worker。
7.changes 考查名词复数。设空处做宾语,表示“变化”,由many可知,此处应用名词复数,故填changes。
8.physically 考查副词。设空处修饰形容词active,表示“身体上”,故填副词physically。
9.that/which 考查关系代词。设空处引导限制性定语从句,指代organizations且在从句中做主语,故填that/which。
10.to
go 考查不定式做补语的用法。expectsb./sth.todosth.意为“期望某人/某物做某事”。

A
If
you
don’t
know
who
J.K.Rowling
is,you
must
be
from
another
planet.Her
Harry
Potter
books
have
been
translated
into
79
languages
and
are
sold
in
more
than
200
countries.They
have
been
turned
into
popular
movies.Although
Rowling
has
earned
over
one
billion
dollars
for
her
work
and
has
been
called
a
genius
by
many,life
wasn’t
always
easy
for
her.
Born
in
Gloucestershire,England,in
1965,Rowling
was
a
good
student
whose
favorite
subjects
were
English
and
foreign
languages,and
after
graduating
from
high
school
she
studied
French
at
University
of
Exeter.Following
her
graduation
from
Exeter,Rowling
worked
as
a
bilingual
(双语的)
secretary.On
a
train
trip
during
this
time,Rowling
got
the
idea
for
a
book
about
a
boy
named
Harry
Potter,an
orphan
who
learns
he
is
a
wizard
and
enters
a
school
of
wizardry.Rowling
began
writing
the
book
during
lunch
breaks
and
meetings,before
finally
quitting
her
job
at
age
26
and
moving
to
Portugal
to
work
as
an
English
teacher.
In
Portugal,Rowling’s
schedule
allowed
her
to
write
during
the
mornings,and
she
continued
working
on
the
book.While
there
she
married
a
Portuguese
journalist,but
after
the
birth
of
their
daughter,Rowling
returned
to
England
with
a
suitcase
full
of
Harry
Potter
notes.She
continued
to
write,and
went
to
a
cafe
with
her
daughter
every
day
to
work
on
her
Harry
Potter
book.
Rowling
received
a
grant
(奖助金)
allowing
her
to
finish
the
book
in
1995,but
it
was
rejected
by
15
publishers
before
a
small
company
called
Bloomsbury
published
it
in
1997.In
1998,the
book
was
published
in
the
United
States
as
HarryPotterandtheSorcerer’sStone.It
wasn’t
long
before
the
book
was
winning
awards
and
rising
to
the
top
of
the
bestsellers
lists.Rowling
went
on
to
write
and
publish
the
second
book
in
the
series
in
1999,and
then
several
more
in
the
seven-book
series
between
then
and
2007.Today
she’s
the
bestselling
author
of
all
time.
