The
Secret
of
Happiness
An
old
man
walked
slowly
into
a
restaurant
with
his
cane(拐杖).
His
__1__
overcoat
and
worn?out
shoes
made
him
stand
out(突出)
from
the
usual
Saturday
morning
breakfast
crowd.
A
young
waitress
named
Mary
watched
him
move
toward
a
__2__
by
the
window.
Mary
ran
over
to
him,
and
said,
“Here,
sir.
Let
me
give
you
a
hand
with
that
__3__.”
Without
__4__
a
word,
he
smiled
and
nodded
a
thank?you.
She
pulled
the
chair
away
from
the
table
and
helped
him
get
seated(坐下)
__5__.
In
a
soft,
clear
__6__
he
said,
“Thank
you,
Miss.
And
thank
you
for
your
__7__.”
“You're
welcome,
sir，”
she
responded.
“I'll
be
__8__
in
a
moment,
and
if
you
need
anything
in
the
meantime,
just
wave
at
me！”
After
he
had
finished
a
__9__
meal,
Mary
helped
him
up
from
his
chair,
__10__
him
his
cane,
and
walked
with
him
to
the
front
door.
Holding
the
door
open
for
him,
she
said,
“Come
back
and
see
us,
sir！”
The
old
man
__11__
around
and
smiled.
When
Mary
went
to
clean
his
table,
she
was
__12__
to
find
a
business
card,
a
one?hundred?dollar
bill
and
a
__13__
which
read,
“Dear
Mary,
I
respect
(尊敬)
you
very
much,
and
you
respect
yourself
too.
It
shows
the
way
you
treat
others.
You
have
found
the
secret
of
__14__！
Your
kind
gestures
will
shine
through
those
who
meet
you.”
Actually
the
man
she
had
served
was
the
__15__
of
the
restaurant.
That
was
the
first
time
that
she
or
any
of
his
employees
had
seen
him.

On
March
25,2010,
Kate
and
David
Ogg
heard
the
words
every
parent
dreads:
Their
newborn
wasn't
going
to
make
it.
Their
twins—a
girl
and
a
boy—were
born
14
weeks
premature,
weighing
just
over
two
pounds
each.
Doctors
had
tried
to
save
the
boy
for
20
minutes
but
saw
no
improvement.
His
heartbeat
was
nearly
gone,
and
he'd
stopped
breathing.
The
baby
had
just
moments
to
live.
“I
saw
him
gasp,
but
the
doctor
said
it
was
no
use，”
Kate
said.
“I
know
it
sounds
stupid,
but
if
he
was
still
gasping,
that
was
a
sign
of
life.
I
wasn't
going
to
give
up
easily.”
Still,
the
couple
knew
this
was
likely
goodbye.
In
an
effort
to
cherish
her
last
minutes
with
the
tiny
boy,
Kate
asked
to
hold
him.
“I
wanted
to
meet
him,
and
for
him
to
know
us，”
Kate
said.
“We'd
resigned
ourselves
to
the
fact
that
we
were
going
to
lose
him,
and
we
were
just
trying
to
make
the
most
of
those
last,
precious
moments.
”
Kate
unwrapped
the
boy,
whom
the
couple
had
already
named
Jamie,
from
his
hospital
blanket
and
ordered
David
to
take
his
shirt
off
and
join
them
in
bed.
The
first?time
parents
wanted
their
son
to
be
as
warm
as
possible
and
hoped
the
skin?to?skin
contact
would
improve
his
condition.
They
also
talked
to
him.
“We
were
trying
to
have
him，”
Kate
said.
“We
explained
his
name
and
that
he
had
a
twin
and
how
hard
we
had
tried
to
have
him.
”
Then
something
miraculous
happened.
Jamie
gasped
again—and
then
he
started
breathing.
Finally,
he
reached
for
his
father's
finger.
The
couple's
lost
boy
had
made
it.
Eight
years
later,
Jamie
and
his
sister,
Emily,
are
happy
and
healthy.
本文讲述了初为人父母的Ogg夫妇在新生龙凤胎中的儿子即将夭折之际不放弃，最终从死神手里夺回了儿子的故事。
1．From
what
can
we
tell
that
Jamie
was
still
alive?
A．His
heartbeat.
B．His
pulse.
C．His
gasp.
D．His
underweight.
答案：C
解析：根据第二段but
if
he
was
still
gasping,
that
was
a
sign
of
life可知。
2．Why
did
the
parents
lie
with
the
baby
boy
in
one
bed?
A．The
family
wanted
to
stay
together
and
keep
warm.
B．The
family
wanted
to
have
their
private
space.
C．The
parents
were
so
tired
and
wanted
to
rest.
D．The
parents
wanted
to
spend
the
last
minutes
with
Jamie.
答案：D
解析：根据第三段In
an
effort
to
cherish
her
last
minutes
with
the
tiny
boy,
Kate
asked
to
hold
him.可知。
3．What
can
be
the
best
title
for
the
passage?
A．Premature
Twins
B．Life?giving
Touch
C．First?time
Parents
D．Last
Precious
Moments
答案：B
解析：即将夭折的孩子在和父母的亲密接触后奇迹般地复活，所以选B。
B
The
British
are
known
for
their
sense
of
humour.
However,
it
is
often
difficult
for
foreigners
to
understand
their
jokes.
The
main
point
to
remember
is
that
the
British
often
use
understatement.
Understatement
means
saying
less
than
you
think
or
feel.
For
example,
if
someone
gets
very
wet
in
a
shower
of
rain,
he
might
say,
“It's
a
little
damp(潮湿的)outside.”Or,
if
someone
is
very
impolite
and
shouts
at
another
person,
someone
else
might
say,
“She
isn't
exactly
friendly.”
Understatement
is
often
used
in
unpleasant
situation
or
to
make
another
person
look
silly.
Understatement
plays
an
important
part
in
British
humour.
Another
key
to
understanding
British
humour
is
that
the
British
like
to
make
fun
of
themselves
as
well
as
others.
They
often
laugh
about
the
silly
and
unpleasant
things
that
happen
to
our
everyday
life
when
someone
accidentally
falls
over
in
the
street.
They
also
like
to
make
jokes
about
people
from
different
classes
of
society.
They
like
to
make
jokes
about
their
accents,
the
way
they
dress
and
the
way
they
behave.
What's
more,
the
British
love
to
watch
comedies
about
people
who
do
not
know
how
to
behave
in
society.
The
comedy
series
Mr
Bean
is
a
good
example
of
this
kind
of
humour.
Mr
Bean
is
the
character
created
by
British
actor
Rowan
Atkinson
in
1990.
Mr
Bean
doesn't
talk
often,
and
instead
he
uses
his
body
movements
and
facial
expressions
to
make
people
laugh.
Perhaps
what
makes
Mr
Bean
so
funny
is
that
he
does
things
that
adults
in
the
real
world
cannot
do.
Mr
Bean
is
popular
in
many
countries
around
the
world
because
you
do
not
have
to
speak
English
to
understand
the
humour.
Because
of
this,
many
people
have
become
familiar
with
the
British
sense
of
humour.
本文是一篇说明文，主要介绍的是如何理解英式幽默。
4．Why
is
it
difficult
for
foreigners
to
understand
British
jokes?
A．The
British
often
enlarge
the
fact.
B．British
jokes
are
connected
with
many
different
cultures.
C．The
British
try
to
make
out
that
something
is
less
important
than
it
is.
D．British
jokes
are
not
as
funny
as
jokes
in
other
countries.
答案：C
解析：细节理解题。根据第一段中的“The
main
point
to
remember
is
that
the
British
often
use
understatement.”及第二段中的“Understatement
means
saying
less
than
you
think
or
feel.”可知，英国人经常使用轻描淡写的语言，轻描淡写意味着说的比你想的或感觉的要少，所以外国人很难理解英国笑话是因为英国人总是试图让别人觉得事情没有那么重要，故C项正确。
5．The
author
explains
understatement
by
________.
A．using
examples
B．making
comparisons
C．following
time
order
D．describing
a
process
答案：A
解析：细节理解题。根据第二段中的“For
example,
if
someone
gets
very
wet
in
a
shower
of
rain,
he
might
say,
‘It's
a
little
damp
(潮湿的)outside.’Or,
if
someone
is
very
impolite
and
shouts
at
another
person,
someone
else
might
say,
‘She
isn't
exactly
friendly.’”可知，作者是通过举在雨中淋湿和不礼貌地对别人大喊大叫的例子来解释轻描淡写的，故A项正确。
6．Mr
Bean
makes
people
laugh
by
________.
A．telling
funny
stories
B．making
jokes
about
others'
accents
C．copying
how
others
behave
D．using
his
body
movements
and
facial
expressions
答案：D
解析：细节理解题。根据最后一段中的“Mr
Bean
doesn't
talk
often,
and
instead
he
uses
his
body
movements
and
facial
expressions
to
make
people
laugh.”可知，憨豆先生是通过肢体动作和面部表情使人发笑的，故D项正确。
7．What
can
be
the
best
title
for
the
text?
A．British
Humour
in
Comedy
B．Humour
in
Different
Cultures
C．Developing
Your
Sense
of
Humour
D．Understanding
British
Humour
答案：D
解析：标题判断题。根据第一段中的“However,
it
is
often
difficult
for
foreigners
to
understand
their
jokes.
The
main
point
to
remember
is
that
the
British
often
use
understatement.”及倒数第二段中的“Another
key
to
understanding
British
humour
is
that
the
British
like
to
make
fun
of
themselves
as
well
as
others.”可知，外国人很难理解英式幽默，要记住的主要一点是英国人经常使用轻描淡写的语言，另一个理解英式幽默的关键是英国人不仅喜欢嘲笑别人还喜欢嘲笑自己，因此本文主要介绍的是如何理解英式幽默，故D项正确。
阅读下面短文，在空白处填入1个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。
A
film,
__1__
(release)
in
Chinese
cinemas
next
month,
tells
the
story
of
a
former
British
secret
agent
named
Johnny
English,
who
has
now
retired
to
be
a
middle
school
history
teacher.
However,
after
a
series
of
cyber
attacks
on
the
UK
government,
all
the
active
secret
agents
__2__
(expose),
which
leaves
the
mission
of
catching
the
bad
guys
__3__
Johnny
English.
But
__4__
films
such
as
Mission
Impossible
and
Kingsman
(《王牌特工》),
in
which
agents
are
all
masters
of
high?tech
tools,
Johnny
English
is
an
old?fashioned
hero,
__5__
(suspect)
of
modern
technology
and
not
even
willing
to
use
a
smartphone.
That
puts
him
in
various
dangerous
situations.
This
wouldn't
come
as
a
surprise
if
you
know
that
Johnny
English
__6__
(play)
by
Rowan
Atkinson,
who
is
best
known
__7__
playing
his
character
Mr
Bean.
Johnny
English
and
Mr
Bean
do
have
a
lot
__8__
common.
As
Atkinson
once
told
the
Guardian
in
an
interview,
“The
essence
of
Mr
Bean
is
__9__
he's
self?centered
and
doesn't
actually
acknowledge
the
outside
world.
He's
a
child
in
a
man's
body.”
And
this
is
__10__
(probable)
why
people
all
around
the
world
can
relate
to
Atkinson's
humor.
They
want
to
be
just
as
self?centered
as
his
characters.
And
they
don't
want
to
care
what
the
outside
world
thinks
of
them.
They
want
to
be
different.
这是一篇说明文。介绍了一部将于下月在中国影院上映的电影的剧情以及主演。
1．to_be_released
解析：考查动词不定式。句意：一部将于下月在中国影院上映的电影讲述了一个前英国特工约翰尼·英格力的故事，他现在已经退休，成为一名中学历史教师。由next
month可知，动作将要发生，A
film与release在逻辑上是被动关系，所以用不定式的被动式to
be
released。故填to
be
released。
2．are_exposed
解析：考查一般现在时的被动语态。句意：然而，在一系列针对英国政府的网络攻击之后，所有活跃的特工都被曝光了，这就把抓坏人的任务留给了约翰尼·英格力。分析句子可知，句子为一般现在时，主语为all
the
active
secret
agents，与谓语expose为被动关系。故填are
exposed。
3．to
解析：考查介词。句意：这就把抓坏人的任务留给了约翰尼·英格力。leave
sth.to
sb.“把某事留给某人”。故填to
。
4．unlike
解析：考查介词。句意：但是不同于电影《碟中谍》和《王牌特工》。unlike为介词，后接名词作宾语。根据句意，故填unlike。
5．suspicious
解析：考查形容词。句意：约翰尼·英格力是一个守旧的英雄，对现代技术持怀疑态度，甚至不愿意使用智能手机。be
suspicious
of
sb./sth.
“对某人或某物感到怀疑”为固定短语。故填suspicious。
6．is_played
解析：考查一般现在时的被动语态。句意：如果你知道约翰尼·英格力是由罗恩·阿特金森饰演的，也就不足为奇了。be
played
by
sb.“由某人扮演”符合句意。故填is
played。
7．for
解析：考查介词。句意：因为他最出名的角色是憨豆先生。be
known
for
“因……而出名”符合句意。故填for
。
8．in
解析：考查介词。句意：约翰尼·英格力和憨豆先生确实有很多共同点。have
in
common
“有共同点”。故填in。
9．that
解析：考查连词。句意：憨豆先生的本质是他以自我为中心，实际上不承认外部世界。分析句子可知，本句是表语从句，且表语从句不缺少句子成分，句意完整。故填that。
10．probably
解析：考查副词。句意：这可能就是为什么世界各地的人都可以联想到阿特金森的幽默。probably为副词修饰整个句子。故填probably。

A
In
England
recently
three
foreign
gentlemen
came
to
a
bus
stop
and
waited.
About
five
minutes
later,
the
bus
they
wanted
came
along.
They
were
just
going
to
get
on
when
suddenly
there
was
a
loud
noise
behind
them.
People
rushed
onto
the
bus
and
tried
to
push
them
out
of
the
way.
Someone
shouted
at
them.
The
bus
conductor
came
rushing
down
the
stairs
to
see
what
all
the
trouble
was
about.
The
three
foreigners
seemed
all
at_sea
and
looked
embarrassed.
No
one
had
told
them
about
the
British
custom
of
lining
up
for
a
bus
that
the
first
person
who
arrives
at
the
bus
stop
is
the
first
person
to
get
on
the
bus.
Learning
the
language
of
a
country
isn't
enough.
If
you
want
to
have
a
pleasant
visit,
find
out
as
much
as
possible
about
the
manners
and
customs
of
your
host
country.
You
will
probably
be
surprised
just
how
different
they
can
be
from
your
own.
A
visitor
to
India
would
do
well
to
remember
that
people
there
consider
it
impolite
to
use
the
left
hand
for
passing
food
at
table.
The
left
hand
is
supposed
to
be
used
for
washing
yourself.
Also
in
India,
you
might
see
a
man
shaking
his
head
at
another
to
show
that
he
doesn't
agree.
But
in
many
parts
of
India
a
shake
of
the
head
means
agreement.
Nodding
your
head
when
you
are
given
a
drink
in
Bulgaria
will
most
probably
leave
you
thirsty.

up
for
the
bus
答案：D
解析：细节理解题。由第一段的“No
one
had
told
them
about
the
British
custom
of
lining
up
for
a
bus
that...on
the
bus.”可知，英国人因为这三位外国人没有排队而将他们推到一边。
2．According
to
the
article,
if
you
want
to
have
a
pleasant
journey
in
a
foreign
country,
you
should
________.
A．learn
the
language
of
the
country
B．understand
the
manners
and
customs
of
the
country
C．have
enough
time
and
money
D．make
friends
with
the
people
there
答案：B
解析：细节理解题。由第二段第二句话“If
you
want
to
have
a
pleasant...your
host
country.”可知，当我们到国外旅行时，应该对目标国家的风俗有所了解。
3．What
does
the
underlined
phrase
“at
sea”
probably
mean?
A．Tired.
B．Disappointed.
C．Pleased.
D．Confused.
答案：D
解析：词义猜测题。根据画线短语后的一句话可知，这三位外国人对英国的风俗并不知情，由此可知，当他们面对英国人当时的反应时会感到迷惑。
B
On
March
2,
at
the
meeting
held
ahead
of
the
yearly
session
of
the
CPPCC
National
Committee
(全国政协大会),
interpreter
(口译员)
Yao
Mengyao
caught
the
attention
of
many
with
her
“quick
reaction
and
correct
translation”，Xinhua
noted.
Yao
began
her
studies
in
English
in
primary
school
where
she
would
listen
to
English
tapes.
She
often
spoke
to
her
teacher
about
English?related
topics
that
were
not
limited
to
the
ones
in
her
textbooks.
“They
were
always
very
professional
uncommon
topics,
”said
Yao's
senior
school
teacher
Shen
Yingzi.
Like
Yao,
Zhang
Lu
is
a
regular
interpreter
for
China's
top
leaders,
including
Premier
Li
Keqiang
and
former
Premier
Wen
Jiabao.
Her
effortless
but
on?point
translations
of
ancient
poems
mentioned
by
former
Premier
Wen
won
praise.
So
how
do
interpreters
reach
their
top
positions?
The
reason
for
their
success
is
largely
hard
work.
Other
than
when
they
go
out
on
visits
with
Chinese
leaders,
the
interpreters
follow
a
very
strict
schedule.
Zhang
called
this
schedule
“an
unshakable
plan”.
They
listen
to
foreign
media
such
as
BBC,
VOA
or
CNN
through
TV
or
radio
for
their
training.
It
is
reported
that
a
month
before
the
two
sessions
(两会),
the
interpreters
get
notice
of
the
spokesperson
they
are
going
to
interpret
for.
They
then
make
full
use
of
this
month
to
prepare
themselves.
They
try
to
predict
the
questions
that
might
be
asked
and
consider
the
sayings
the
spokesperson
might
use
when
they
answer
the
questions.
In
truth,
there
is
no
secret
to
their
success:
It's
all
a
matter
of
skill
and
hard
work.
本文是一篇新闻报道。文章介绍了在全国政协年会召开前的会议上，口译员姚梦瑶以其“反应迅速、翻译正确”引起了许多人的注意，还有其他口译员的出色表现，口译员们的成功其实来源于他们的不懈努力。
4．What
can
be
inferred
from
the
second
paragraph?
A．Yao
tried
to
make
a
speech
in
English.
B．The
textbooks
didn't
interest
Yao
at
all.
C．Yao
showed
a
strong
interest
in
English.
D．The
teacher
got
tired
of
Yao's
endless
questions.
答案：C
解析：推理判断题。根据第二段中的“Yao
began
her
studies
in
English
in
primary
school
where
she
would
listen
to
English
tapes.”可知，她从小学开始便学习英语，在学校里会听英语磁带，由此可推断出，她自小便对英语有很大的兴趣。故选C。
5．Which
of
the
following
is
closest
in
meaning
to
the
underlined
word
in
Paragraph
3?
A．Serious.
B．Ordinary.
C．Organized.
D．Frequent.
答案：D
解析：词义猜测题。根据本段提到的李克强、温家宝，且张璐对古诗的翻译还得到了称赞，可知，她经常作为中国领导人的口译员。regular与D项的“Frequent”相符合。故选D。
6．What
should
interpreters
try
to
do
before
the
two
sessions?
A．Make
a
schedule
for
foreign
visits.
B．Predict
the
questions
to
be
asked.
C．Go
out
on
visits
with
Chinese
leaders.
D．Discuss
with
their
teammates.
答案：B
解析：细节理解题。根据倒数第二段中的“They
try
to
predict
the
questions
that
might
be
asked
and
consider
the
sayings
the
spokesperson
might
use
when
they
answer
the
questions.”可知，他们试着预测可能会被问到的问题，并考虑发言人在回答问题时可能会使用的谚语。故选B。
7．How
do
the
interpreters
reach
the
top
positions?
A．By
working
hard.
B．By
travelling
abroad.
C．By
making
a
strict
schedule.
D．By
following
the
leaders.
答案：A
解析：细节理解题。根据最后一段“In
truth,
there
is
no
secret
to
their
success:
It's
all
a
matter
of
skill
and
hard
work.”可知，他们的成功没有什么秘诀，完全是技能和努力工作的结果。故选A。
A
good
laugh
is
like
a
mild
workout.
It
exercises
the
muscles,
gets
the
blood
flowing,
decreases
blood
pressure
and
improves
sleep
patterns
and
the
immune
system.
__1__
Don't
take
life
too
seriously.
We
all
have
obstacles
in
life
and
we
all
make
mistakes.
__2__
In
fact,
if
you
can
laugh
light?heartedly
at
your
own
fault,
you'll
find
that
you
give
yourself
that
extra
happiness
and
confidence
increase
that
can
get
you
over
any
obstacle.
Find
the
humor
in
a
bad
situation.
Sure,
there
are
some
situations
where
you
are
really
sad.
__3__
The
next
time
you
feel
the
stress
levels
rising,
take
a
minute
to
think
about
the
funny
side
of
the
situation
and
laugh
over
the
things
you
cannot
control.
This
will
lower
your
blood
pressure,
blood
sugar
levels
and
heart
rate.
Remind
yourself
of
funny
moments
from
the
past.
Perhaps
a
friend
told
you
a
great
joke
the
other
day
or
your
children
or
pets
did
something
amusing.
__4__
Sometimes
just
reliving
a
funny
moment
can
cause
the
endorphins
(内啡肽),
natural
painkillers,
to
kick
in.
__5__As
the
saying
goes,
laughter
is
contagious
(会传染的).
So
make
a
point
of
seeking
out
positive
people
who
aren't
afraid
to
laugh
at
themselves
and
are
good
at
finding
humor
in
life's
situations.
Young
children
are
especially
skilled
at
finding
laughter
and
joy
in
everyday
moments.
A．Take
control
over
your
emotions.
B．There
is
no
reason
to
blame
yourself
for
it.
C．However,
most
situations
in
life
have
funny
sides.
D．Surround
yourself
with
fun
people
who
like
to
laugh
a
lot.
E．The
following
are
some
ways
to
enjoy
more
laughter
and
joy
in
your
life.
F．Studies
show
that
people
with
pets
have
lower
levels
of
depression
and
stress.
G．Call
on
these
memories
frequently,
especially
when
feeling
sad,
angry
or
stressed.
本文属于说明文。文章告诉我们大笑对健康很有好处，同时还给出了一些让我们更快乐、有更多笑声的四个建议。
1．E 解析：根据前两句A
good
laugh
is
like
a
mild
workout.
It
exercises
the
muscles,
gets
the
blood
flowing,
decreases
blood
pressure
and
improves
sleep
patterns
and
the
immune
system.说明大笑对我们有很好的作用，那么在生活中我们应该更多大笑。另外从下文三个黑体字部分可知这些都是让我们有更多笑声的方法。所以E项“The
following
are
some
ways
to
enjoy
more
laughter
and
joy
in
your
life.”属于上下文的过渡句。
2．B 解析：根据前句We
all
have
obstacles
in
life
and
we
all
make
mistakes.在生活中我们都会遇见困难也都会犯错。犯错是生活中很正常的一件事情，所以我们不要因此而责备自己。故B项“There
is
no
reason
to
blame
yourself
for
it.”符合上下文串联。
3．C 解析：本段的标题是Find
the
humor
in
a
bad
situation.处境不好的时候找到幽默的一面。告诉我们当我们遇见困难时，要学会从中找到有趣的一面，让自己开心快乐。再根据横线前一句Sure,
there
are
some
situations
where
you
are
really
sad.当然，有一些我们真的很难受的情况。那么我们要从这些令人难受的情景中找到有趣的东西。故C项符合上下文。
4．G 解析：本段的标题为Remind
yourself
of
funny
moments
from
the
past.让自己想起过去那些有趣的时刻，因为那些时刻对我们的情绪有很好的影响。所以我们要经常想起这些时刻，尤其是在我们悲伤难过的时候。选项中只有G项内容与本段中心思想一致。
5．D 解析：根据横线后两句As
the
saying
goes,
laughter
is
contagious
(会传染的).
So
make
a
point
of
seeking
out
positive
people
who
aren't
afraid
to
laugh
at
themselves
and
are
good
at
finding
humor
in
life's
situations.可知笑是会传染的，要让我们周围都是一些快乐的人，让快乐的人来感染我们。让我们一起快乐起来。所以D项“Surround
yourself
with
fun
people
who
like
to
laugh
a
lot.”与本段中心思想一致。
阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。续写的词数应为150左右。
Once
upon
a
time,
there
was
a
farmer
called
Rip
Van
Winkle.
He
lived
in
a
village
in
the
mountains
with
his
wife
and
two
young
children,
a
daughter
and
a
son.
Rip
was
a
very
happy
and
kind
man
and
he
got
on
well
with
all
the
children
in
the
village.
They
loved
him
because
he
played
games
with
them
and
often
told
them
stories
while
he
was
sitting
outside
the
“King
George”，
the
village
inn.
He
spent
a
lot
of
time
in
the
inn
because
he
was
a
very
lazy
man.
Instead
of
working
on
his
farm,
he
would
go
fishing
or
hunting,
or
sit
in
the
village
inn
talking
to
his
friends.
His
family
was
poor
and
his
wife
used
to
get
angry
with
him.
“What
kind
of
farmer
are
you？”
she
would
say.
“Why
don't
you
get
down
to
some
work,
you
lazy
man！”
After
arguments
with
his
wife,
Rip
always
went
off
hunting
with
his
dog,
Wolf.
One
day,
after
another
argument,
Rip
went
further
than
usual
in
the
woods
and
came
to
a
beautiful
valley.
Suddenly,
he
heard
a
strange
voice
calling
his
name.
An
old
man,
dressed
in
old?fashioned
clothes,
was
trying
to
carry
a
barrel
(木桶)
and
asked
Rip
to
help
him.
Rip
agreed.
They
took
the
barrel
to
a
cave,
where
there
were
more
people,
all
dressed
in
the
same
strange
clothes.
After
that,
the
old
man
gave
Rip
a
drink
from
the
barrel.
Rip
immediately
fell
into
a
deep
sleep.
答案
Paragraph
1:
Some
time
later,
he
woke
up
under
a
tree
in
the
same
valley.
He
was
alone,
worried
about
his
dog
and
he
knew
he
was
going
to
get
into
more
trouble
with
his
wife.
Then
he
noticed
a
curious
thing—his
hair
was
over
his
shoulders
and
his
beard
was
over
a
foot
long!
So
strange
was
he
that
he
decided
immediately
to
get
back
to
the
village.
As
soon
as
he
got
there,
he
realized
that
everything
was
different
and
there
were
lots
of
new
houses.
Surprisingly,
he
didn't
recognize
the
people
in
the
village.
Paragraph
2:
When
he
got
to
his
house,
he
saw
that
it
was
old
and
abandoned.
To
his
sorrow,
his
wife
had
died
two
years
before
and
the
two
children
had
left
away.
Despite
the
argument
with
his
wife,
he
was
regretful
of
the
past.
Facing
this
sharp
change,
Rip
was
determined
to
change
his
way
of
living
and
never
be
a
lazy
man.
He
became
a
diligent
farmer
and
kept
pace
with
the
new
society.
In
his
spare
time,
he
would
still
went
to
the
old
inn
that
had
been
rebuilt
to
tell
some
stories
about
his
adventure
in
the
valley,
which
appealed
to
the
children
a
lot.

The
search
engine
Google
celebrated
the
110th
birthday
of
the
first
Native
American
woman
engineer.Google
honored
Mary
Ross
with
a
special
Google
Doodle
on
its
homepage.
Ross
was
born
on
August
9,1908，in
the
state
of
Oklahoma.She
was
the
great?granddaughter
of
John
Ross，the
longest?serving
chief
of
the
Cherokee
Nation.Her
work
is
considered
important
to
the
early
stages
of
the
age
of
space
travel.
Ross
showed
special
abilities
in
math
and
science
from
an
early
age.As
a
student，she
developed
an
interest
in
aviation，or
the
practice
of
flying
aircraft.She
went
on
to
earn
a
master's
degree
in
mathematics
from
Colorado
State
Teachers
College，now
called
the
University
of
Northern
Colorado.
During
World
War
II，Ross
began
working
for
the
Lockheed
Aircraft
Corporation
as
a
mathematician.She
earned
a
special
certification
in
the
field
from
the
University
of
California
in
1949.Ross
was
later
chosen
to
join
Lockheed's
top?secret
Skunk
Works
team
that
worked
on
aircraft
designs.The
name
refers
to
a
group
that
is
permitted
to
work
independently
on
advanced
projects.She
was
the
only
female
engineer
among
the
team's
40
members.
Early
on，she
researched
defense
systems.By
the
late
1950s，her
work
centered
on
satellites
and
a
series
of
space
rockets
called
Agenda.The
rockets
were
extremely
important
in
the
1960s
during
the
Apollo
moon
program.
Ross
also
helped
develop
early
design
ideas
for
space
travel
between
planets，including
flyby
space
flights
to
study
Venus
and
Mars.Ross
retired
from
Lockheed
in
1973.But
she
continued
to
give
talks
at
high
schools
and
colleges
to
encourage
more
women
and
Native
Americans
to
study
engineering.She
died
in
2008，a
few
months
before
her
100th
birthday.
Many
celebrated
Ross'
life
on
social
media.Twitter
user
Aaron
Perez，for
example，wrote：“Mary
Ross
was
an
engineer
who
pioneered
in
the
field
of
satellites.I
never
would
have
known
if
it
wasn't
for
the
doodle.Women
engineers
deserve
more
recognition.”

The
siesta
competition
took
place
in
a
supermarket,
with
plenty
of
shoppers,
screaming
babies,
talking
voices,
and
footsteps
to
take
the
competitors'
attention
away
from
their
afterlunch
sleeps.
Five
bright
blue
sofas
were
laid
out,
and
five
competitors
at
a
time
were
allowed
to
take
a
20?minute
sleep.
A
doctor
measured
their
pulse
to
time
how
long
they
actually
spent
on
sleep.
Competitors
earned
extra
points
for
snoring
(打鼾),
sleeping
in
strange
positions,
or
wearing
silly
pajamas
(睡衣).
The
winners
of
each
round
advance
to
the
next
stage
in
the
competition.
It's
amazing
that
any
of
those
people
would
fall
asleep
in
the
middle
of
such
a
busy
place,
while
on
couches
that
they
are
not
used
to.
Yet,
many
of
them
did.
They
hugged
pillows
or
soft
toy
bears.
They
covered
their
eyes
with
sleep
masks,
too,
whatever
it
took
to
help
them
fall
asleep
fast
and
stay
asleep.
The
siesta
is
a
tradition
in
Spain
that
many
feel
is
becoming
forgotten.
It
used
to
be
that
people
would
take
a
brief
nap
after
lunch
every
day.
This
would
energize
them,
and
keep
them
going
for
the
rest
of
the
day,
not
to
mention
the
health
benefits
of
a
good
nap.
But,
that's
all
changing.
People
are
too
busy
making
money
or
watching
gossip
shows
on
TV
after
lunch
to
care
about
taking
a
nap.
The
National
Association
of
Friends
of
the
Siesta
wants
to
bring
Spain
back
to
their
traditional
roots.
They
are
doing
this
by
having
the
siesta
competition.
They
set
up
the
competition
to
reward
the
best
sleepers
with
money.
Actually,
they
were
paid
to
sleep.
There
are
really
health
benefits
to
a
midday
nap.
We
could
all
learn
from
this
tradition.
It's
a
much
better
way
to
get
more
energy
than
drinking
a
cup
of
coffee.
It
is
also
believed
that
a
nap,
and
in
fact
a
good
night's
sleep,
can
help
reduce
heart
disease.
The
more
rested
we
are,
the
less
stress
we
feel
with
day?to?day
life.
本文是一篇记叙文。文章讲述的是一次“午睡比赛”。午睡比赛在一家超市举行，有很多购物者、尖叫的婴儿、说话的声音和脚步声，以分散竞争对手午饭后睡觉时的注意力。举办这项比赛是因为协会想要号召人们养成他们的传统习惯。
24．The

here
probably
means“________”．
A．oversleep
B．night
sleep
C．a
short
sleep
after
supper
D．a
short
sleep
after
lunch
答案：D

is
becoming
forgotten.
It
used
to
be
that
people
would
take
a
brief
nap
after
lunch
every
day.”(午睡是西班牙的一项传统，许多人觉得这项传统正在被遗忘。过去，人们每天午饭后都会小睡一会儿。)由此可知第一段中的画线词的意思是“午饭后的小睡”。故选D。

what
situation

competition
take
place?
A．In
a
noisy
place.
B．In
a
quiet
place.
C．In
a
comfortable
place.
D．In
a
familiar
place.
答案：A
解析：推理判断题。根据第一段可知，这个比赛在一家超市举行，再根据后面的“with
plenty
of
shoppers,
screaming
babies,
talking
voices,
and
footsteps”可知，这是个十分嘈杂的地方。故选A。
26．When
the
competitors
went
to
sleep,
they
could
________.
A．have
their
own
beds
B．use
nothing
to
cover
their
eyes
C．have
doctors
to
help
them
D．use
something
to
help
them
sleep
答案：D
解析：推理判断题。根据第三段中“They
hugged
pillows
or
soft
toy
bears.
They
covered
their
eyes
with
sleep
masks,
too,
whatever
it
took
to
help
them
fall
asleep
fast
and
stay
asleep.”(他们抱着枕头或柔软的玩具熊，也有人用睡眠面罩蒙住眼睛，或者用其他任何能帮助他们快速安稳睡着的东西。)可知，当参赛者去睡时，他们可以用一些东西来帮助他们入睡。故选D。
27．The
competition
is
held
because
the
Association
wants
to
________.
A．know
if
people
still
know
the
traditional
habit

on
people
to
have
their
traditional
habit
C．do
some
research
on
how
people
sleep
D．give
people
money
in
this
way
答案：B
解析：推理判断题。根据第五段第一句“The
National
Association
of
Friends
of
the
Siesta
wants
to
bring
Spain
back
to
their
traditional
roots.
”(National
Association
of
Friends
of
the
Siesta想让西班牙回归传统。)可知，举办这项比赛是因为协会想要号召人们养成他们的传统习惯。故选B。
C
Ladies,
if
you
find
yourselves
wandering
an
unknown
city
with
a
man
who
is
questioning
your
directional
abilities,
don't
doubt
yourselves.
A
recent
small
study
published
in
the
journal
Psychological
Science
found
that
the
longstanding
theory
that
women
have
a
more
difficult
time
reading
maps
wasn't
true.
Historically,
men
have
performed
better
than
women
in
studies
that
tested
their
spatial
(空间的)
ability.
But
the
leading
study
author
Margaret
Tarampi
and
a
researcher
from
the
University
of
California,
Santa
Barbara
theorized
that
social
influences
had
an
effect
on
this
outcome:
The
cultural
belief
that
women
are
worse
at
reading
maps
could
be
seen
as
a
stereotype
(固有模式)
threat,
meaning
women
believe
they're
bad
at
something,
so
they
perform
poorly
as
a
result.
The
researchers
also
theorized
that
women
performed
better
at
skills
that
involve
a
social
element.
In
other
words,
if
reading
a
map
means
helping
someone
else,
they
might
perform
better.
Tarampi
and
her
team
tested
both
theories
on
undergraduate
students
at
UCSB
across
three
separate
experiments.
And,
indeed,
the
results
showed
that
men
scored
better
than
women
only
when
they
were
mentioned
the
stereotype
of
male
superiority
before
the
test.
When
the
researchers
did
not
mention
it
and
gave
a
social
context
for
reading
the
map,
women's
scores
improved
across
the
board.
Women
also
performed
better
when
the
test
maps
simply
included
human
figures,
rather
than
just
random
objects
and
landmarks.
So
ladies,
next
time
you
struggle
to
figure
out
whether
you
should
make
a
left
or
right
at
the
Louvre,
take
out
your
tourist
map
with
a
healthy
dose
of
confidence.
本文是一篇说明文，主要讲述了由于社会刻板印象，女性在阅读地图时被认为更糟糕，但研究发现，女性阅读地图和男性一样好。
28．What
is
the
purpose
of
the
first
paragraph?
A．To
warn
women
of
one
of
their
shortcomings.
B．To
introduce
the
topic
of
the
passage.
C．To
encourage
women
to
read
maps.
D．To
state
a
social
phenomenon.
答案：B
解析：推理判断题。根据第一段中“Ladies,
if
you
find
yourselves
wandering
an
unknown
city
with
a
man
who
is
questioning
your
directional
abilities,
don't
doubt
yourselves.”(女士们，如果你发现自己在一个陌生的城市，身边的男人质疑你的方向感，请你绝不要怀疑自己。)以及下文可知，本段是为了引出文章主题。故选B。
29．Women
are
thought
to
be

poor
sense
of
direction
B．a
lack
of
experience
C．a
social

D．threats
from

at
something,
so
they
perform
poorly
as
a
result.”(认为女性不善于看地图的文化观念可能是一种刻板印象带来的威胁，这意味着女性认为自己不擅长某方面的事情，结果也会表现得很差。)可知，女性在阅读地图时被认为更糟糕是由于社会刻板印象。故选C。
30．Men
performed
better
than
women
in
the
study
when
________.
A．they
were
asked
to
help
someone
else
by
reading
a
map
B．they
were
informed
of
the
stereotype
before
the
test
C．the
test
maps
simply
included
human
figures
D．there
were
social
elements
in
the
map
答案：B
解析：细节理解题。根据第四段“And,
indeed,
the
results
showed
that
men
scored
better
than
women
only
when
they
were
mentioned
the
stereotype
of
male
superiority
before
the
test.”(事实上，研究结果表明，只有当男性在测试前被提到男性方向感很好的刻板印象时，他们的得分才高于女性。)可知，在测试之前，当他们被告知刻板印象时，男性在研究中表现优于女性。故选B。
31．What
can
be
concluded
from
the
passage?
A．Women
can
read
maps
as
well
as
men.
B．Women
are
better
drivers
than
men.
C．Women
always
have
difficulty
reading
maps.
D．Women
are
better
at
spatial
ability.
答案：A
解析：推理判断题。根据文章倒数第二段“When
the
researchers
did
not
mention
it
and
gave
a
social
context
for
reading
the
map,
women's
scores
improved
across
the
board.
Women
also
performed
better
when
the
test
maps
simply
included
human
figures,
rather
than
just
random
objects
and
landmarks.”(当研究人员没有提及这一点，而是给出了阅读地图的社会背景时，女性的分数普遍提高。当测试地图只包含人类图形而不是随机的物体和地标时，女性的表现也更好。)可以得出结论，当不提及男性至上的刻板印象时，女性阅读地图和男性一样好。故选A。
D
Being
stuck
behind
crowds
of
slow
walkers
when
you're
in
a
hurry
is
one
of
the
most
annoying
things.
But
now,
Lakeside
Shopping
Centre
in
Essex,
one
of
the
UK's
largest
shopping
malls,
has
introduced
its
very
own
fast
lane
(通道)
for
shoppers
in
a
hurry,
aiming
to
help
impatient
shoppers
avoid
slow
walkers
and
the
anger
that
goes
with
them.
The
Lakeside
Shopping
Center
in
Essex
has
introduced
a
720?foot
“fast
lane”
reserved
for
fast
walkers
only,
just
in
time
for
the
Christmas
rush.
The
center's
management
team
said:
“the
lane
will
help
the
shoppers
who
know
where
they
want
to
go
quickly
and
don't
want
to
get
caught
in
behind
unhurried
shoppers
at
the
busiest
time
of
the
year.”
The
fast
lane
was
introduced
after
a
MasterCard
survey
found
that
80
percent
of
consumers
found
slow
walkers
their
biggest
annoyance
while
shopping.
The
research
also
found
that
the
average
walking
speed
slowed
down
by
21
percent
during
the
Christmas
shopping
period,
as
most
shoppers
spent
more
time
window
shopping
during
this
period.
Gary
Mortimer,
an
expert
from
the
Queensland
University
of
Technology,
said
he
wasn't
surprised
by
the
promotion
about
the
launch
of
the
fast
lane,
and
thought
the
concept
would
appeal
to
shoppers
all
over
the
world.
“Crowded
parking
lots
and
busy
shopping
centers
tend
to
be
two
of
the
biggest
complaints
of
shoppers
over
the
festive
season，”
he
said.
“I
think
the
fast
lanes
are
a
new
approach.
However,
I
suspect
it
will
be
a
bit
like
fast
lanes
on
the
highway,
so
it
might
end
up
being
more
trouble
than
its
worth.”
The
MasterCard
survey
also
identified
the
four
most
common
types
of
shoppers.
They
include
“Skaters”
—the
31
percent
of
shoppers
who
try
and
make
their
way
through
crowds
politely,
“Dodgers”—the
51
percent
of
customers
who
move
down
the
paths
to
avoid
slow
walkers,
“Bulldozers”
—the
11
percent
who
push
their
way
through
crowds,
and
“Tutters”—the
15
percent
who
express
their
frustrations
to
slow
walkers.
这是一篇议论文。本文主要写了针对圣诞节期间的顾客，购物中心创造快速通道避开“慢行者”，并针对这一现象进行了讨论。
32．The
fast
lane
is
intended
for
the
shoppers
who
________.
A．can't
move
quickly
because
of
physical
disabilities
B．buy
things
on
their
shopping
lists
quickly
C．take
their
time
to
do
window
shopping
D．want
to
leave
the
mall
quickly
答案：B
解析：细节理解题。根据第一段“But
now,
Lakeside
Shopping
Centre
in
Essex,
one
of
the
UK's
largest
shopping

has
introduced
its
very
own

for
shoppers
in
a
hurry,
aiming
to
help
impatient
shoppers
avoid
slow
walkers
and
the
anger
that
goes
with
them.”(但现在，英国最大的购物中心之一埃塞克斯的湖畔购物中心为匆忙的购物者推出了自己的“快车道”，旨在帮助没有耐心的购物者避开慢行的顾客和因等待引发的愤怒。)可知
“快车道”是专为那些快速购物的人设计的。故选B。
33．What
is
Gary
Mortimer's
attitude
to
the
fast
lane?
A．Supportive.
B．Indifferent.
C．Critical.
D．Objective.
答案：D
解析：推理判断题。根据文中第四段Gary
Mortimer说的话：“I
think
the
fast
lanes
are
a
new
approach.
However,
I
suspect
it
will
be
a
bit
like
fast
lanes
on
the
highway,
so
it
might
end
up
being
more
trouble
than
its
worth.”(我认为快车道是一种新颖的方法。但是，我怀疑它会有点像高速公路上的快车道，最终却变得更麻烦)可见他对于fast
lane的评价是客观的，既说出它的优点也指出了它可能存在的问题，所以答案选D。
34．Who
patiently
moves
behind
a
slow
crowd?
A．Skaters.
B．Dodgers.
C．Bulldozers.
D．Tutters.
答案：A
解析：细节理解题。根据最后一段中“They
include
‘Skaters’—the
31
percent
of
shoppers
who
try
and
make
their
way
through
crowds
politely.”可见Skaters是礼貌地试着穿过人群。所以答案选A。
35．What
is
the
main
idea
of
this
passage?
A．Shopping
can
be
annoying
sometimes.
B．How
to
avoid
“slow
walkers”
when
shopping.
C．The
problems
that
shopping
centers
face
during
busy
holidays.
D．The
shopping
mall
creates
the
fast
lane
to
avoid
“slow
walkers”．
答案：D
解析：主旨大意题。根据第一段最后一句“one
of
the
UK's

has
introduced
its
very
own
fast

in
a

第二节(共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分)
阅读下面短文，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。
Music
is
often
targeted
at
teenagers.
Because
teenagers
go
through
big
changes
and
start
making
life?affecting
decisions
in
their
teens,
people
naturally
wonder
what
effects
music
has
on
teenagers.
Does
it
lead
to
violence?
Help
test
scores?
Teach
them
valuable
lessons?
__36__
Music
can
help
students
improve
academic
performance.
Studying
music
involves
math
and
science,
so
students
often
improve
in
these
areas.
__37__
According
to
a
report,
students
who
took
part
in
music
performance
scored
41
points
higher
in
math
than
those
who
did
not
take
part
in
music
performance.
Being
a
teenager
can
be
rough
emotionally.
Music
is
an
especially
emotional
art
form
covering
every
type
of
emotion.
__38__
As
music
is
a
way
to
express
emotions,
many
teenagers
might
try
to
make
their
own
music,
which
can
create
healthy
emotional
expression.
__39__
Thus,
listening
to
music
can
teach
teenagers
a
lot
about
their
own
culture
and
other
cultures.
They
can
learn
musical
traditions,
musical
instruments,
history
lessons
and
more.
Plus,
as
listening
to
music
is
a
fun
activity,
this
can
often
be
a
more
interesting
way
to
learn
about
a
culture,
rather
than
simply
reading
a
textbook.
Music
tastes
and
interests
can
often
bring
people
together,
especially
teenagers.
__40__
As
well,
music
is
often
enjoyed
at
concerts
and
dance
clubs
where
teenagers
often
hang
out.
Typically,
the
people
attending
these
concerts
and
dance
clubs
already
share
a
common
interest,
so
a
connection
can
be
easily
made.
A．Music
is
often
related
with
culture.
B．This
improvement
can
benefit
them
in
tests.
C．Music
greatly
improves
teenagers,
learning
abilities.
D．While
there
are
negative
effects,
there
are
many
positive
effects,
too.
E．If
they
can
find
a
song
that
matches
their
mood,
they
will
feel
comfortable.
F．Rap
music
presents
a
new
vocabulary
teenagers
won't
learn
in
an
English
class.
G．Two
teenagers
who
like
the
same
style
of
music
are
easily
to
start
up
a
friendship.
这是一篇说明文。文章讲述了音乐对青少年的影响。
36．D 解析：根据前文
“Does
it
lead
to
violence?
Help
test
scores?
Teach
them
valuable
lessons？”
可知是说音乐可能对青少年的影响。承接上文，D项：While
there
are
negative
effects,
there
are
many
positive
effects,
too.(虽然有负面影响，也有很多积极的影响)切题。故选D。
37．B 解析：下文提及：据一份报告显示，参加音乐表演的学生数学成绩比不参加音乐表演的学生高41分。B项：This
improvement
can
benefit
them
in
tests.(音乐技能的提高可以使他们在考试中受益)切题且引出下文。故选B。
38．E 解析：上文提到：音乐是一种特殊的情感艺术形式，涵盖了所有类型的情感。下文：由于音乐是一种表达情感的方式，许多青少年可能会尝试自己制作音乐，从而创造出一种积极的情感表达方式。承接上下文，E项：If
they
can
find
a
song
that
matches
their
mood,
they
will
feel
comfortable.(如果他们能发现一首符合他们心情的歌曲，他们会感觉很好)切题。故选E。
39．A 解析：下文提到：因此，听音乐可以教青少年很多关于他们自己的文化以及其他文化。承接下文，A项：Music
is
often
related
with
culture.(音乐常常与文化有关)切题。故选A。
40．G 解析：上文提到：对音乐的品味和兴趣往往能使人们走到一起，尤其是青少年。下文：此外，音乐经常在音乐会和舞蹈俱乐部这类青少年经常出没的地方被大众欣赏。承接上下文，G项：Two
teenagers
who
like
the
same
style
of
music
are
easily
to
start
up
a
friendship.(两个喜欢同一种音乐风格的青少年很容易建立友谊)切题。故选G。
第三部分：语言运用(共两节，满分30分)
第一节(共15小题；每小题1分，满分15分)
阅读下面短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。
I
had
reached
the
age
of
twenty?eight.
Still,
I
__41__
whether
the
letter
from
my
past
would
make
it
to
me,
all
these
years
later.
It
was
a
creative
writing
task
from
when
I
was
eighteen.
The
teacher
collected
out
letters
to
our
__42__
selves
in
self?addressed
envelope
with
stamps
and
promised
to
__43__
them
ten
years
later.
But
since
so
much
time
had
passed,
would
he
even
__44__？
Thinking
back
on
the
__45__，
I
recalled
giving
my
future
self
some
advice.
When
you're
eighteen
years
old,
twenty?eight
seems
like
a
__46__
age,
but
I
wasn't
feeling
as
mature
as
I
believed
my
younger
self
had
__47__
me
to
be.
When
the
letter
finally
reached
me,
I
opened
it
__48__.
It
began,
“How
much
do
you
bet
this
letter
will
never
get
to
you？”
It
continued
to
greet
me
casually
as
if
we
were
having
an
IM
(instant
messaging)
chat.
As
a
senior
in
high
school,
facing
the
__49__
important
exams
and
college
application,
my
eighteen?year?old
self
was
so
__50__！She
was
apparently
not
quite
happy
and
hoped
I
wouldn't
worry
so
much
in
the
future,
and
that
I
wouldn't
forget
to
be
present
and
__51__
my
life!
__52__
to
my
belief,
my
eighteen?year?old
self
did
not
have
any
demands
of
me,
or
expectations
I
might
have
failed
to
meet.
Instead,
she
wrote,
“I'll
__53__
you
whatever
you
do.
Even
if
you
are
not
the
one
I'm
imagining
now,
I'll
support
you,
because
maybe
__54__
I'm
imagining
is
someone
else,
but
you're
not
someone
else;
you're
me.”
I
was
__55__，
and
tears
came
to
my
eyes
at
this
self?acceptance
through
time.
I
had
put
a
lot
of
pressure
on
myself
to
be
the
best
version
of
myself
that
I
could
be.
However,
I
came
to
realize
what
I
would
have
accomplished
in
ten
years
would
pale
in
comparison
(相形见绌)
to
how
I'd
feel
and
who
I'd
be.

第二节(共10小题；每小题1.5分，满分15分)
阅读下面短文，在空白处填入1个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。
Whenever
anyone
asks
me
where
my
favorite
place
in
China
is,
I
say
Dali
without
hesitation.
Dali,
__56__
(surround)
by
mountains
for
hiking
and
lakes
for
bicycling
around,
is
the
kind
of
place
that
everyone
likes.
Last
year
I
met
a
couple
of
young
students
I'd
known
__57__
I
travelled
to
Dali,
and
we
agreed
__58__
(cycle)
along
the
lake
in
a
small
town
outside
of
Dali.
The
lake
__59__
(it)
was
pretty
easy
to
cycle
around
,
__60__
flat
paths
passing
through
a
lot
of
little
villages.
While
cycling,
a
woman
recommended
an
hour?long
boat
ride
for
about
40
RMB
each—a
bit
expensive
but
__61__
adventure
we
felt
like
having,
so
we
paid
for
it.
In
about
20
minutes
we
witnessed
in
__62__
(excite)
how
a
fisherman
fished
with
his
fishing
birds.
A
string
was
tied
around
each
bird's
neck
so
that
when
it
dived
for
fish,
it
was
unable
to
swallow
them.
The
birds
__63__
(give)
a
fish
as
payment
for
their
service
after
the
fisherman
had
a
satisfactory
catch.
I'd
__64__
(previous)
read
about
this
fishing
method,
but
it
was
pretty
exciting
to
see
first?hand.
The
day
finished
with
a
brilliant
sunset,
__65__
I
climbed
onto
a
roof
to
get
a
photo
of.
这是一篇夹叙夹议文。文章讲述了作者自己和几个朋友一起骑行去欣赏大理美景的经历。
56．surrounded
解析：考查非谓语动词。分析句子结构可知，is是句子的谓语，故surround应是非谓语，又因为Dali和surround是动宾关系，故填surrounded。
57．before
解析：考查时间状语从句的连接词。句意：去年，我遇到了几个年轻的学生，他们是我去大理之前认识的。再结合下文可知这些学生是“我”在去大理之前就认识了，故填before。
58．to_cycle

to
do同意做某事，故填to
cycle。
59．itself
解析：考查代词。分析句子结构可知，空处作the
lake的同位语，故填itself。

__60__
flat
paths

61．an
解析：考查冠词。句意：在骑车的时候，一位女士推荐了一小时的船游，每人40元左右——虽然有点贵，但它是我们很喜欢的冒险，所以我们付了钱。分析句子结构可知，空处填冠词，再结合句意可知，adventure在此处表示泛指，又是元音音素开头，故填an。
62．excitement
解析：考查词性转换。分析句子结构可知，in后填名词，故填excitement。
63．were_given
解析：考查被动语态。分析句子结构可知，句子缺少谓语，又因为the
birds是give的受动者，故填were
given。

阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。续写的词数应为150左右。
Jack，a
clerk
at
the
local
bank，was
wandering
alone
on
the
street.It
was
a
cold,
silent
winter
night.His
mind
was
on
his
wife
Linda，who
had
been
in
a
car
accident
two
months
ago
and
was
now
lying
in
a
hospital
bed,
waiting
for
more
money
for
her
operation.Jack
had
sold
everything
he
had,
and
he
had
tried
his
best
to
borrow
money
from
all
the
people
and
banks
he
could.But
the
real
world
is
cruel.
A
lot
of
money
was
still
needed.To
Jack，it
would
mean
a
great
deal
of
suffering
to
see
his
wife
die
without
any
help.“I
have
only
one
choice
left，”Jack
said
to
himself.Then
he
went
to
the
bank，his
workplace，again.For
several
days，he
observed
the
bank
and
planned
a
theft.
The
next
day，he
went
to
work
as
usual.Everything
seemed
normal：he
joked
with
his
workmates
and
helped
his
clients
as
he
always
did.But
no
one
noticed
that
he
had
brought
a
bigger
suitcase
to
work,
instead
of
the
small
one
he
always
carried.At
5：00
pm，the
bank
closed，and
the
clerks
and
the
guards
had
all
gone
home.However,
at
that
moment，Jack
was
in
the
bathroom，and
the
guards
didn't
notice
him，of
course.When
the
noises
coming
from
the
street
were
replaced
by
silence
and
everything
turned
dark，Jack
came
out
from
the
bathroom.He
first
cut
the
lines
of
the
alarms
and
monitors
with
tools
from
his
new
suitcase.
He
was
all
too
familiar
with
the
equipment
since
he
had
been
working
there
for
8
years
and
had
been
studying
the
security
system
for
the
past
30
days.Using
a
special
key
and
some
other
tools，he
then
easily
opened
the
doors
of
the
safes.The
bank's
security
system
wasn't
very
good，which
allowed
Jack
to
take
a
lot
of
money.Several
minutes
later，Jack
left
the
bank
with
a
heavy
bag
filled
with
money.
答案
Paragraph
1：
After
Jack
had
been
gone
from
the
bank
for
a
while，the
alarms
began
to
ring.The
police
arrived
at
the
bank
very
quickly,
only
to
find
no
one
there.The
next
day
was
a
really
special
day
for
the
town，which
was
filled
with
newspaper
and
TV
reporters
covering
the
strange
theft.The
clerks
at
the
bank
were
busy
discussing
the
case,
of
course,
including
Jack.The
police
could
only
promise
to
catch
the
thieves
as
soon
as
possible，even
though
no
clues
had
been
found
yet.
Paragraph
2：
But
the
most
unlucky
man
was
the
manager
of
the
bank,
an
old
man.He
seemed
to
be
the
only
person
to
blame
and
was
removed
from
his
position.At
last，with
enough
money
for
her
operation,
Jack's
wife
was
saved.However，Jack
felt
guilty
about
the
manager
of
the
bank.He
could
not
forget
what
he
had
done
to
the
old
man.His
guilt
deepened
as
time
went
by.Finally，he
turned
himself
in
to
the
police
and
accepted
his
punishment.
