B
In
this
day
and
age,
you
can
practically
do
anything
with
the
help
of
the
Internet.
While
chatting
with
a
stranger
may
seem
new
and
exciting,
make
sure
that
you
stay
safe
while
still
having
fun.
While
there
are
some
unpleasant
people
in
the
world,
let's
remember
that
most
people
are
friendly!
If
you
find
someone
who
likes
the
same
restaurant
as
you
or
who
is
also
crazy
about
Gilmore
Girls,
then
feel
free
to
talk
the
night
away!
Just
keep
the
conversation
light
and
talk
about
your
common
interests.
If
a
topic
that
doesn't
fit
well
with
you
is
brought
up,
keep
in
mind
that
you
are
always
in
control.
Under
no
circumstances
should
you
be
forced
to
talk
or
think
about
anything
inappropriate.
Ignore
your
manners
at
this
time!
Do
stay
open?minded.
Sometimes
chatting
with
strangers
can
turn
into
a
close
bond—or
just
another
person
you
can
turn
to
for
a
laugh.
But
when
you
are
typing
away
in
your
computer,
it's
easy
for
you
to
get
carried
away
and
to
tell
your
new
friends
all
about
yourself.
Keep
the
personal
details
secret,
and
instead
talk
about
fun
hobbies
or
the
latest
episode
(一集)
of
The
Good
Wife.
Always
listen
to
your
instincts
(直觉).
If
something
inside
of
you
is
telling
you
something
isn't
right,
it
probably
isn't.
Pay
attention
to
how
your
body
responds
to
certain
people
online.
Remember,
you
never
really
know
who
you
are
talking
to
just
by
looking
at
a
computer
screen
name,
so
downloading
anything
is
absolutely
no.
See?
Talking
to
strangers
online
doesn't
always
have
to
be
an
appalling
experience.
By
following
these
do's
and
don'ts,
chatting
with
someone
you
don't
know
can
be
cool
and
pleasant,
and
can
make
sure
that
you
stay
safe
in
the
world
of
the
Internet.
本文是一篇说明文，很多人把网络聊天当成是洪水猛兽般可怕的事物，文章告诉我们在网络聊天的时候，要注意一些具体准则，这些准则可以很好地保护我们。
4．When
you
chat
online,
it
is
acceptable
if
you
________.
A．send
a
stranger
a
picture
of
yourself
B．stop
chatting
if
the
topic
upsets
you
C．never
refuse
to
talk
to
any
stranger
online
D．let
out
some
personal
information
答案：B
解析：推理判断题。根据第二段后三句“If
a
topic
that
doesn't
fit
well
with
you
is
brought
up,
keep
in
mind
that
you
are
always
in
control.
Under
no
circumstances
should
you
be
forced
to
talk
or
think
about
anything
inappropriate.
Ignore
your
manners
at
this
time！”可知当网络交谈的话题不适合的时候，你可以停止与对方的交流，不要在意礼貌。故B项正确。
5．What
should
you
do
when
chatting
online?
A．Avoid
chatting
with
those
different
from
you.
B．Try
to
be
polite
when
a
topic
make
you
feel
upset.
C．Avoid
downloading
everything
from
strangers.
D．Don't
expect
to
get
a
lifelong
friendship
from
a
stranger.
答案：C
解析：细节理解题。根据第四段最后一句“Remember,
you
never
really
know
who
you
are
talking
to
just
by
looking
at
a
computer
screen
name,
so
downloading
anything
is
absolutely
no.”可知在网络聊天的时候，你并不完全了解聊天对象，所以千万不能下载对方发送的任何文件。故C项正确。
6．The
underlined
word
“appalling”
in
the
last
paragraph
probably
means
“________”．
A．terrible
B．funny
C．exciting
D．comfortable
答案：A
解析：词义猜测题。根据画线词后一句“By
following
these
do's
and
don'ts,
chatting
with
someone
you
don't
know
can
be
cool
and
pleasant...”可知遵守上文提及的“do's
and
don'ts”，与陌生人的网络聊天也可能很令人愉快。而很多人把网络聊天当成是洪水猛兽般可怕的事物。所以猜测画线词“appalling”意为“可怕的，糟糕的”，故A项正确。
7．What
would
be
the
best
title
for
the
passage?
A．Advantages
of
surfing
the
Internet
B．Guidelines
on
chatting
with
strangers
online
C．Advice
on
how
to
get
a
lifelong
online
friendship
D．Possible
dangers
of
surfing
the
Internet
答案：B
解析：标题判断题。本文是一篇说明文，在第二至四段中，作者提出了一些正确处理网络聊天的建议，告诉我们在网络聊天的时候，要注意一些具体准则。所以本文介绍的是网络聊天要注意的一些规则，故B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。

本文是说明文，主题语境是“人与自我”。本文介绍了夏威夷草裙舞，它能够降低血压，有益健康。
1．is
解析：考查主谓一致。分析句子结构可知，主语是动名词短语learning
some
hula
dance
steps，故空处填is。
2．originally
解析：考查副词。空处修饰谓语动词settled，应用副词。
3．reduced
解析：考查动词的时态。分析句子结构可知，本句主句缺少谓语动词，根据上下文可知，此处用一般过去时。
4．spiritual
解析：考查形容词。and连接两个并列的形容词修饰名词needs，故此处填spiritual
“精神上的”。
5．to
解析：考查介词。此处表示“适用于”，故用apply...to...搭配，to是介词。
6．the
解析：考查冠词。根据idea后跟的同位语从句和语境可知，此处表示特指，故用定冠词the。
7．breathe
解析：考查词性转换和非谓语动词。make
sb.do
sth.为固定用法，故空处要填动词原形。
8．Whether
解析：考查让步状语从句。分析句子结构并根据后面的or可知，此处表示“不管……还是……”，故用Whether。
9．benefits
解析：考查名词复数。空处缺少名词作主语，根据后面的are可知，空处要填名词复数形式。
10．motivating
解析：考查非谓语动词。分析句子结构可知，空处作后置定语修饰名词activities，且motivate与activities是逻辑上的主谓关系，故用现在分词形式。

Amazing
Stories
of
Animals
Acting
Just
Like
Humans
◆Horses
are
picky
eaters
Horses
have
an
even
better
sense
of
smell
than
humans
do.
When
horses
raise
their
noses
and
open
their
nostrils
(鼻孔),
their
nervous
system
allows
them
to
sense
smells
we
can't
sense.
This
might
explain
why
they
refuse
dirty
water
and
carefully
move
around
meadows,
eating
only
the
tastiest
grasses,
experts
say.
◆Whale
says
thanks
In
2011,
a
whale
expert
spotted
a
humpback
whale
trapped
in
a
fishing
net
and
spent
an
hour
freeing
it.
Afterward,
in
an
hour?long
display
of
thanks,
the
whale
swam
near
their
boat
and
leaped
into
the
air
about
40
times.
◆Pandas
like
to
be
naughty
Is
there
anything
more
lovely
than
a
baby
panda,
except
maybe
a
human
baby?
In
fact,
baby
pandas
sometimes
behave
like
human
babies.
They
sleep
in
the
same
positions
and
value
their
thumbs.
Pandas
are
shy
by
nature
for
its
shy
behaviors
such
as
covering
its
face
with
a
paw
or
ducking
its
head
when
confronted
by
a
stranger.
◆A
cat
honors
its
owner
Paper
towels,
and
a
plastic
cup
are
just
a
few
of
the
gifts
that
Toldo,
a
devoted
three?year?old
gray?and?white
cat,
has
placed
on
his
former
owner
Iozzelli
Renzo's
grave
every
day
since
the
man
died
in
September
2011.Renzo
adopted
Toldo
from
a
shelter
when
the
cat
was
three
months
old,
and
the
two
formed
an
inseparable
bond.
After
Renzo
passed
away,
Toldo
followed
the
coffin
to
the
cemetery,
and
now
“stands
guard”
at
the
grave
for
hours
at
a
time.
这是一篇说明文。短文介绍了与人类行为相似的一些动物。
1．What
can
horses
do
to
pick
the
most
delicious
grasses?
A．Feel
them.
B．Smell
them.
C．Observe
them.
D．Taste
them.
答案：B
解析：细节理解题。由Horses
are
picky
eaters中的“their
nervous
system
allows
them
to
sense
smells
we
can't
sense.
This
might
explain
why
they
refuse
dirty
water
and
carefully
move
around
meadows,
eating
only
the
tastiest
grasses”可知，它们的神经系统会让它们感觉到我们人类感觉不到的气味。这或许可以解释为什么它们拒绝饮用脏水，在草地上小心翼翼地走动，只吃最美味的草。所以马是靠嗅觉来挑选最美味的草的。故选B项。
2．Which
animal
feels
shy
when
facing
strangers?
A．The
whale.
B．The
horse.
C．The
panda.
D．The
cat.
答案：C
解析：细节理解题。由Pandas
like
to
be
naughty中的“Pandas
are
shy
by
nature
for
its
shy
behaviors
such
as
covering
its
face
with
a
paw
or
ducking
its
head
when
confronted
by
a
stranger.”可知，熊猫天生害羞，它们有害羞的行为，比如在遇到陌生人时，用爪子遮住脸，低着头。所以熊猫遇到陌生人时会害羞。故选C项。
3．What
do
the
whale
and
the
cat
have
in
common
according
to

解析：推理判断题。由Whale
says
thanks中的“Afterward,
in
an
hour?long
display
of
thanks,
the
whale
swam
near
their
boat
and
leaped
into
the
air
about
40
times.”和A
cat
honors
its
owner中的“...the
gifts
that
Toldo,
a
devoted
three?year?old
gray?and?white
cat,
has
placed
on
his
former
owner
Iozzelli
Renzo's
grave
every
day
since
the
man
died
in
September
2011”可知，随后，在长达一个小时的感谢中，这头鲸鱼游到他们的船附近，跃升到空中约40次。一只忠诚的三岁灰白色猫咪，自从2011年9月主人去世后，他每天都把这些礼物放在前主人Iozzelli
Renzo的坟墓前。所以通过对两种动物行为的描述可以判断出，鲸鱼和猫的共同特点是他们有一颗感恩的心。故选A项。
B
Every
country
has
certain
cultural
patterns
making
it
unique.
Of
course,
habits
and
customs
between
cultures
and
countries
tend
to
overlap
(重叠).
The
popularity
of
social
media,
for
instance,
ignores
borders
and
breaks
down
cultural
differences.
Technology
has
made
the
world
a
much
smaller
and
culturally
similar
place.
However,
when
looking
at
a
foreign
country,
we
will
always
find
differences
between
our
traditions
and
theirs.
Young
Italians
and
young
Americans,
for
example,
though
alike
in
many
respects,
have
also
some
pronounced
differences,
especially
when
it
comes
to
work,
pastimes
and
sports.
Most
American
teens
have
part?time
jobs
through
high
school
and
college.
Youths
in
Italy
tend
not
to.
The
reasons
behind
this
are
multifaceted.
It
is,
to
begin
with,
rather
hard
in
Italy
to
find
the
type
of
part?time
jobs
students
usually
take
up.
Moreover,
there
is
also
a
different
cultural
attitude
to
take
into
consideration,
especially
when
thinking
of
certain
parts
of
Italy.
Young
Italians
like
to
enjoy
life
to
the
full
and
feel
there
will
be
time
to
work
once
they
become
adults,
hence
the
lack
of
interest
in
finding
odd
jobs
while
still
in
school.
Like
the
old
saying
goes,
some
Italians
work
to
live,
while
some
Americans
often
live
to
work.
In
a
lot
of
ways,
young
Italians
and
Americans
spend
their
free
time
in
a
similar
fashion.
Listening
to
music,
watching
movies,
hanging
out,
practicing
sports
and
surfing
the
Internet
are
all
common
ways
to
pass
some
free
time.
Italians,
especially,
make
a
point
of
going
out
and
being
social,
often
choosing
between
pizzeria
or
birrerie
(place
for
pizza
or
beer),
which
stay
open
late.
Italians
often
pile
into
a
couple
of
cars
and
go
out
in
a
big
group.
In
general,
American
teens
participate
in
a
lot
of
extracurricular
(课外的)
activities,
many
often
through
school,
while
Italians
may
not
take
part
in
so
many.
When
going
out,
Italian
teens
tend
to
meet
and
gather
on
the
streets
of
their
cities
or
towns,
something
not
as
common
in
the
United
States,
especially
in
highly
populated
areas.
This
very
Italian
habit
can
be
linked
to
the
urban
arrangement
of
Italian
towns.
Many
of
them
date
back
thousands
of
years
and
feature
central
piazzas
(广场)
and
areas
built
around
historical
sites
that
have
now
become
gathering
places
for
the
young.
If
you're
in
Italy,
don't
be
surprised
by
the
sight
of
hundreds
gathered
in
a
piazza
or
on
the
street,
laughing
and
drinking
the
night
away.
这是一篇说明文。文章主要说明了意大利年轻人和美国年轻人在对待工作、娱乐方面的一些明显的差异。
4．The
passage
is
mainly
about
________.
A．the
unique
lifestyles
shared
by
American
and
Italian
teens
B．the
relationship
between
young
people
of
America
and
Italy
C．some
customs
and
habits
of
the
Americans
and
Italians
D．some
differences
in
tradition
between
young
Americans
and
Italians
答案：D
解析：主旨大意题。根据第一段最后一句Young
Italians
and
young
Americans,
for
example,
though
alike
in
many
respects,
have
also
some
pronounced
differences,
especially
when
it
comes
to
work,
pastimes
and
sports.(例如，意大利年轻人和美国年轻人虽然在很多方面都很相似，但也有一些明显的差异，尤其是在工作、娱乐和体育方面。)以及文章主要围绕着美国和意大利年轻人的一些传统差异展开，故选D。
5．By
saying
“some
Italians
work
to
live,
while
some
Americans
often
live
to
work”，
the
author
most
probably
wants
to
tell
us
that
________.
A．Italians
have
a
better
life
attitude
toward
working
B．Americans
are
more
diligent
and
thus
live
a
better
life
C．Americans
and
Italians
both
find
it
hard
to
locate
a
satisfying
job
D．Italians
and
Americans
have
different
choices
regarding
work
答案：D
解析：推理判断题。根据上文Moreover,
there
is
also
a
different
cultural
attitude
to
take
into

especially
when
thinking
of
certain

of
Italy.
Young
Italians

and
feel
there
will
be
time
to
work
once
they
become
adults,
hence
the
lack
of
interest
in
finding
odd
jobs
while
still
in
school.(此外，还有一种不同的文化态度需要考虑，尤其是考虑到意大利的某些地区。年轻的意大利人喜欢尽情享受生活，一旦他们长大成人，就会觉得有时间去工作，因此他们对在校期间找零工不感兴趣。)可知，意大利年轻人是为了生活而去工作，而美国的年轻人工作是为了生活，作者想要通过这句话告诉我们意大利人和美国人在工作上有不同的选择。故选D。
6．According
to
Paragraph

答案：A
解析：细节理解题。根据第三段中In
a
lot
of
ways,
young
Italians
and
Americans
spend
their
free
time
in
a
similar
fashion.
Listening
to
music,
watching

and
surfing
the

are
all
common
ways
to
pass
some
free
time.(在很多方面，年轻的意大利人和美国人以相似的方式度过他们的空闲时间。听音乐、看电影、出去玩、锻炼身体和上网都是打发空闲时间的常见方式。)可知，美国青少年通过运动和上网来打发时间。故选A。
7．If
there
is
one
more

it
most
probably
be
about?
A．The

for
example,
though
alike
in
many
respects,
have
also
some
pronounced
differences,
especially
when
it
comes
to
work,

To
help
you
understand
what
5G
is,
and
what
it
means
to
you,
we've
put
together
a
handy
guide
here.
What
is
5G?
__1__
At
its
most
basic
level,
5G
will
be
used
to
make
calls,
send
texts,
and
to
simply
get
online.
But
it's
going
to
be
significantly
faster
than
previous
generations,
and
could
open
the
door
up
to
a
range
of
exciting
new
uses.
__2__
5G
will
use
new
higher
radio
frequencies
to
send
out
data,
which
are
less
cluttered
(挤满的)
and
carry
information
much
faster.
While
these
higher
bands
are
faster,
they
don't
carry
information
as
far.
That's
to
say,
smaller
multiple
input
and
output
antennas
(天线)will
be
used—promoting
both
signals
and
capacity(容量).
__3__
Why
is
it
better
than
4G?
5G
is
expected
to
be
faster
than
4G,
with
some
firms
claiming
it
could
be
as
much
as
100
times
quicker.
The
fastest
4G
networks
can
deliver
peak
download
speeds
of
around
300
Mbit/s.
__4__
In
real
life,
this
could
allow
you
to
download
a
full
HD
film
in
less
than
10
seconds!
__5__
It
means
there
will
be
very
little—if
any—delay
when
you
carry
out
tasks
on
a
device.
While
this
will
help
improve
things
like
gaming
experiences,
it
could
also
pave
the
way
for
safer
self?driving
cars—in
which
even
a
short
delay
could
be
life?saving.
Finally,
5G
will
have
a
larger
capacity,
meaning
networks
will
be
able
to
deal
with
several
apps
at
once.
Generally,
this
should
mean
that
devices
have
a
faster,
more
stable
connection.
A．How
does
5G
work?
B．How
will
5G
affect
you?
C．5G
is
also
expected
to
have
a
lower
latency.
D．5G
is
short
for
“5th
generation
mobile
network”．
E．In
comparison,
5G
could
offer
download
speeds
of
over
1
Gb/s.
F．Therefore,
the
similarity
between
5G
and
4G
technology
is
huge.
G．This
means
5G
will
support
up
to
1,000
more
devices
per
meter
than
4G.
这是一篇说明文。短文介绍了关于5G的相关信息。
1．D 解析：由“What
is
5G？”可知，5G是什么。所以小题1要说明5G的概念。故D选项“5G是‘第五代移动网络’的缩写”切题。故选D项。
2．A 解析：由后文“5G
will
use
new
higher
radio
frequencies
to
send
out
data,
which
are
less
cluttered
(挤满的)and
carry
information
much
faster.”可知，5G将使用新的更高的无线电频率来发送数据，这些数据传送得更顺畅，传输的速度更快。所以本段主要在说明5G的工作原理也就是小题2本段的标题所要说明的内容。故A选项“5G是如何工作的？”切题。故选A项。
3．G 解析：由前文“That's
to
say,
smaller
multiple
input
and
output
antennas
(天线)will
be
used—promoting
both
signals
and
capacity(容量)．”可知，也就是说，更小的多输入和输出天线将被应用——提升信号质量和容量。所以小题3要承接上文具体说明这种天线所带来的优势。故G选项“这意味着5G每米将比4G多支持1
000个设备”切题。故选G项。
4．E 解析：由“The
fastest
4G
networks
can
deliver
peak
download
speeds
of
around
300
Mbit/s.”可知，最快的4G网络可以提供大约300Mbit/s的峰值下载速度。所以小题4要与4G网络的速度对比来说明5G网络的速度。故E选项“相比之下，5G可以提供超过1Gb/s的下载速度”切题。故选E项。
5．C 解析：由后文“It
means
there
will
be
very
little—if
any—delay
when
you
carry
out
tasks
on
a
device.”可知，这意味着当你在设备上执行任务时，即使有延迟，也会非常少。所以小题5与后一句为解释说明关系，来说明5G有较低的延迟性，也是本段的主题句。故C选项“5G预计也会有较低的延迟性”切题。故选C项。
阅读下面短文，根据其内容写一篇60词左右的内容概要。
Child
raising
is
probably
one
of
the
most
difficult
jobs
for
people
to
do
all
over
the
world.
Since
babies
do
not
come
with
child
raising
manuals
(指南),
couples,
especially
future
mothers,
have
to
learn
from
their
mothers,
aunts,
mothers?in?law,
or
any
other
relative
who
is
close
to
them.
As
children
grow
up,
parents
have
to
find
reasonable
ways
in
order
to
help
their
children,
advise
them,
punish
them,
lead
them
to
achievements,
and
teach
them.
Sometimes
children
under
ten
may
behave
inappropriately.
For
example,
they
learn
to
say
offensive
words
and
they
show
no
respect
to
their
relatives.
I
think
parents
in
these
cases
should
punish
their
children
in
a
reasonable
way.
Children
must
know
those
kinds
of
attitudes
are
not
good
at
all.
There
are
many
aspects
which
influence
parents
in
this
hard
job,
for
example,
the
culture
in
which
they
live,
the
economic
situation
in
their
society,
and
the
religious
environment.
One
group
consists
of
people
who
don't
have
economical
resources
or
education.
In
this
group,
people
get
married
when
they
are
teenagers.
Their
children
are
taken
to
their
grandparents'
homes,
so
the
job
of
child
raising
is
done
by
grandparents
instead
of
the
real
parents.
If
the
grandparents
are
on
the
sidewalks
selling
newspapers,
cigarettes,
or
magazines,
the
children
will
be
like
them,
too.
Some
of
them
even
end
up
being
thieves,
gang
members
and
drug
users.
Other
groups
of
people
are
hard
workers
or
well?educated.
The
children
grow
up
in
their
parents'
homes
and
are
disciplined
and
punished
differently.
They
learn
to
respect
other
people,
and
they
are
led
to
achieve
in
school,
sports
and
community
service.
When
they
grow
up,
they
often
become
political
leaders,
community
leaders,
and
professionals
in
their
fields.

这是一篇应用文。本文是一则英语外教招聘通知。招聘外教的单位是深圳剑桥文化国际教育中心，这是一所与中国教育部签订了聘请并管理外教合同的机构。文中主要介绍了招聘单位的信息及招聘岗位的待遇和要求。
1．What
can
we
know
about
Shenzhen
Cambridge
Culture
International
Education?
A．It
has
a
history
of
more
than
a
decade.
B．It
has
the
Chinese
government
as
a
sponsor.
C．Its
main
task
is
to
train
foreign
teachers
for
Chinese
schools.
D．It
provides
a
service
package
for
foreign
teachers
to
work
in
China.
答案：D
解析：细节理解题。根据文中第二段“We
hire
and
manage
you
from
the
start
(getting
on
the
plane)
to
finish
(returning
home)!
We
offer
visa
support,

and
the
chance

before
you
go
to
China.”
可知，该机构会对招聘来的外教从上飞机那一刻开始一直管理到回家。该机构会给外教提供签证、培训、教学指导、结识其他参与者等服务。故选D项。
2．What
benefit
can
teachers
get
from
working
with
the
organization?
A．One
week's
free
hotel.
B．Medical
insurance.
C．Higher
salary
than
local
average.
D．Legal
aid
during
public
holidays.
答案：C
解析：细节理解题。根据文章Benefits部分的Salary
range，外教老师的工资为11
000至18
000人民币，比当地的平均工资水平要高出150%—200%，因此外教老师能在该机构获得高薪水的福利。故选C项。
3．Who
may
be
qualified
for
the
position?
A．A
Canadian
who
hasn't
got
the
TEFL
certificate.
B．An
experienced
English
teacher
who
is
65
years
old.
C．A
professor
who
can
only
work
in
China
for
half
a
year.
D．A
native
English
speaker
who
has
a
Doctor's
Degree
in
education.
答案：D
解析：推理判断题。根据文章中Requirements部分，可以判断外教老师需要TEFL
certificate“国际英语教师资格证书”，故A项错误。外教年龄Age
from
20
years
old
to
55
years
old“20岁—55岁”，故B项错误。外教需签署10—12个月的合同，即“10—12
months'
contract”，故C项错误。外教学历的要求为学士及以上，即“Bachelor's
Degree
(学士学位)
or
above
in
any
field”，故D项正确。
B
In
2013
Tallinn(爱沙尼亚首都塔林)became
the
world's
first
capital
city
to
offer
people
free
public
transport.
Last
year
Estonia(爱沙尼亚)set
the
aim
to
become
the
first
country
with
free
public
transport
nationwide.
Buses
are
now
free
of
charge
in
11
of
its
15
counties.
Tallinn's
city
government
came
up
with
the
idea
of
free
transport
in
2008.Even
though
the
city
paid
more
than
70%
of
public?transport
costs,
ticket
prices
were
still
too
high
for
poorer
people.
Crowdedness
had
also
become
a
problem.
Since
1991,
the
number
of
people
owning
cars
has
doubled.
Opponents(反对者)thought
the
idea
unaffordable
and
critics(批评者)predicted
the
transport
system
would
become
overcrowded
and
lack
money.
Surprisingly,
public
transport
has
improved,
despite
a
12
million
hit
to
the
system's
finances
from
lost
ticket
sales.
Tallinn's
population
has
grown,
leading
to
an
increase
in
local
tax
intake.
Additional
revenue(财政收入)comes
from
tourists,
who
still
have
to
buy
tickets.
The
use
of
public
transport
in
Tallinn
has
gone
up
by
10%,
while
the
number
of
cars
in
the
city
has
gone
down
by
10%,
meaning
less
congestion.
Now
other
countries
are
looking
at
Estonia's
experience.
Tallinn
officials
say
they
have
had
interest
from
France,
Sweden,
Poland,
Italy
and
Germany.
Other
places
have
already
introduced
free
public
transport
for
certain
groups
or
at
certain
times.
In
England
1/3
of
all
bus
trips
are
fare?free
especially
for
pensioners(领养老金者);
Wales
runs
free
travel
at
weekends
to
improve
tourism.
But
so
far
full
fare?free
travel
is
rare.
The
city
of
Hasselt
in
Belgium
ran
free
public
transport
for
16
years
before
reintroducing
fares
because
of
increasing
costs.
本文是一篇说明文，主要阐述爱沙尼亚首都塔林实施免费公共交通政策。
4．Which
of
the
following
places
offers
full
fare?free
public
transport?
A．Hasselt.
B．Estonia.
C．Wales.
D．Tallinn.
答案：D
解析：根据第一段In
2013
Tallinn(爱沙尼亚首都塔林)
became
the
world's
first
capital
city
to
offer
people
free
public
transport.
可知。
5．What
idea
did
the
opponents
and
critics
share
about
Tallinn's
free
public
transport?
A．The
government
wouldn't
have
enough
money
to
carry
it
out.
B．It
wouldn't
help
with
the
city's
over
crowdedness.
C．It
would
lead
to
the
heavy
loss
from
ticket
sales.
D．Years
later
the
city
would
reintroduce
fares
from
people.
答案：A
解析：根据第三段Opponents
(反对者)
thought
the
idea
unaffordable
and
critics
(批评者)
predicted
the
transport
system
would
become
overcrowded
and
lack
money.
得知反对者和批评者认为这个政策会导致资金短缺。
6．What
does
the
underlined
word
in
Paragraph
4
mean?
A．Pollution.
B．Population.
C．Crowdedness.
D．Income.
答案：C
解析：根据第四段while
the
number
of
cars
in
the
city
has
gone
down
by
10%可知，市中心的车辆数下降了百分之十，意味着减轻了拥挤，而不是减少了污染、人口和收入。
7．Why
do
you
think
so
many
countries
show
interest
in
Estonia's
experience?
A．It
offers
more
job
opportunities
for
people.
B．It
helps
to
solve
the
traffic
problem
in
cities.
C．It
encourages
people
to
stop
driving.
D．It
attracts
more
tourists
to
take
buses.
答案：B
解析：根据第二段可知，免费公共交通政策的推行主要是出于两个目的，其中一个就是缓解城市交通拥挤的问题。第四段中提到实施之后确实缓解了交通拥挤这个问题，所以其他国家和地区纷纷效仿。

这是一篇新闻报道。俄罗斯的大学入学考试把普通话作为选修外语。
1．an
解析：考查冠词。language指的是“(某国)语言”时为可数名词，此处表示泛指，且elective的首字母的发音为元音音素，所以用冠词an来修饰。故填an。
2．fifth
解析：考查序数词。the＋序数词表示“第……”。本句表示第五，所以应用序数词fifth。故填fifth。
3．has_risen
解析：考查现在完成时。由“in
the
past
decade”可知，本句为现在完成时，主语为The
number
of
Chinese
learners，谓语用第三人称单数。故填has
risen。
4．carried
解析：考查过去分词。分析句子可知，
survey
与carry
out在逻辑上是被动关系，所以用过去分词作后置定语。故填carried。
5．to
解析：考查介词。approach
to
“……的方法”，为固定短语。故填to。
6．choosing
解析：考查现在分词。分析句子可知，本句为with的复合结构作状语，people与choose在逻辑上是主动关系，所以应用现在分词。故填choosing。
7．their
解析：考查代词。their为形容词性物主代词，修饰名词。故填their。
8．characters
解析：考查名词复数。character为可数名词，中国的汉字不止一个，所以应用character的复数。故填characters。
9．who
解析：考查关系代词。分析句子可知，those为先行词，指人，在后面的定语从句中作主语，所以关系代词为who。故填who。
10．globally
解析：考查副词。globally为副词修饰动词use。故填globally。

A
Best
Way
to
Save
Money
Although
the
best
way
to
save
money
can
vary
from
person
to
person,
depending
on
age,
family
size
and
other
characteristics,
there
are
still
some
easy
things
that
all
shoppers
can
do
to
keep
more
money
in
their
bank
accounts.
Avoid
Impulse
(冲动的)
Purchases
When
you
shop,
a
best
way
to
save
money
is
to
have
a
plan
in
mind
to
help
you
avoid
impulse
purchases.
For
instance,
you
might
leave
your
credit
cards
at
home
and
only
carry
the
exact
amount
of
cash
that
you
will
need
for
your
planned
purchase.
Some
shoppers
agree
to
discuss
any
purchases
over
a
certain
dollar
amount
with
their
spouses
(配偶)
first.
Know
When
to
Pay
for
Quality
Sometimes
the
best
way
to
save
money
in
the
long
term
is
to
spend
a
little
more
money
right
now.
A
good
piece
of
furniture
can
stay
in
the
family
for
decades.
A
high?quality
pair
of
shoes
will
last
longer
than
a
bargain
pair
and
prevent
foot
pain.
Leaner
cuts
off
meat
and
organic
produce
provide
health
benefits
for
your
family.
Buy
Secondhand
Check
classified
ads,
thrift
stores
and
garage
sales
for
used
clothing,
toys,
furniture,
and
much
more
available
at
a
part
of
their
original
cost.
For
the
most
secondhand
savings,
check
out
groups
like
Freecycle
where
members
offer
unwanted
items
for
free
to
anyone
willing
to
pick
them
up.
Borrow
Instead
of
Buy
If
you're
only
going
to
use
something
once,
try
to
borrow
it
instead
of
spending
your
money
on
it.
Borrow
a
tool
from
your
neighbor.
Swap
books
with
a
friend.
Check
out
the
resources
at
your
local
library.
You'll
also
be
reducing
disorder
in
your
home.

B
Hundreds
of
villagers
took
matters
into
their
own
hands
by
digging
miles
of
trenches(沟壕)to
install
their
own
cables
(电缆).
The
tiny
village
in
Michaelston?y?Fedw,
with
a
population
of
300,
clubbed
together
after
being
unable
to
download
films,
stream
music
or
connect
to
online
banking.
Farmers,
teachers
and
even
the
village
pub
owners
put
in
thousands
of
hours
of
volunteering
to
dig
miles
of
trenches
and
now
have
super
fast
broadband
(宽带)．
The
project
cost
around
￡250,000
with
villagers
paying￡150,000
of
their
own
money
to
secure
their
super
fast
connection
speed.
They
were
also
able
to
obtain
￡100,000
from
EU
funding
and
the
Welsh
Government
Access
Broadband
Cymru
scheme.
The
idea
was
produced
in
the
local
pub
when
villagers
were
complaining
about
their
Wi?Fi
connections.
Ben
Longman,
owner
of
the
Cefn
Mably
Arms,
said,
“We
were
in
the
pub
and
we
were
all
complaining
about
how
bad
the
Wi?Fi
was.
I
had
just
paid
for
high
speed
broadband
and
realized
it
would
not
work.”
One
of
the
organizers,
Carina
Dunk,
61,
said
it
was
fantastic
what
the
village
had
achieved.
She
said,
“It
used
to
take
a
few
days
to
download
a
film;
now
it
takes
less
than
a
minute.
Communities
have
tended
to
be
more
distant
and
separated
but
not
here
anymore.
Sometimes
we
have
to
take
a
step
back
and
achieve
something.”
A
year
after
the
project,
most
of
the
300
villagers
are
now
united
in
a
1,000
mps
broadband
connection.
However,
Richard
Raybould,
59,
is
still
waiting
for
his
house
to
be
connected
on
the
edge
of
the
village
and
said
he
cannot
wait.
He
said,
“It
is
amazing
what
skills
people
in
the
community
have.
There
are
experts
and
farmers
who
dig
trenches.
I
have
met
at
least
30
people
who
I
had
never
spoken
to
before.”
这是一篇记叙文。短文叙述了数百名村民自己动手，挖了数英里的沟来安装自己的电缆，现在他们拥有了超快的宽带网络。
24．What
can
we
learn
about
the
villagers?
A．They
had
no
access
to
the
Internet.
B．They
usually
didn't
have
much
free
time.
C．They
didn't
know
how
to
use
the
Internet
correctly.
D．They
considered
their
Internet
connection
disappointing.
答案：D
解析：推理判断题。由第三段“Ben
Longman,
owner
of
the
Cefn
Mably
Arms,
said,
‘We
were
in
the
pub
and
we
were
all
complaining
about
how
bad
the
Wi?Fi
was.’”可知，
Cefn
Mably
Arms的老板Ben
Longman说，“我们当时在酒吧，都在抱怨Wi?Fi有多糟糕。”所以通过
Ben
Longman的话可以判断出，他们认为他们的网络令人失望。故选D项。
25．To
have
their
own
cables,
the
villagers
had
to
________.
A．partly
cover
the
cost
B．employ
workers
to
dig
trenches
C．donate
￡100,000
to
EU
funding
D．get
the
local
government's
permission
答案：A
解析：细节理解题。由第二段“The
project
cost
around
￡250,000
with
villagers
paying
￡150,000
of
their
own
money”可知，该项目耗资约25万英镑，村民们自己支付15万英镑。所以为了拥有自己的电缆，村民们不得不承担部分费用。故选A项。
26．What
does
the
author
intend
to
do

Carina
Dunk's
words?
A．Explain
the
cause
of
the

the
project.
C．Show
the
benefits
from
the

D．Show
the
villagers'
attitudes
toward
the

答案：C
解析：推理判断题。由第四段“She
said,
‘It
used
to
take
a
few
days
to
download
a
film;
now
it
takes
less
than
a
minute.
Communities
have
tended
to
be
more
distant
and
separated
but
not
here
anymore.’”可知，以前下载一部电影需要几天，现在不到一分钟。社区往往距离远而且分散，但现在不是了。所以通过Carina
Dunk所说的话可知，村民们从这项工程中受益了。故判断出，作者想通过提到Carina
Dunk所说的话来说明这个项目的益处。故选C项。
27．What

答案：C
解析：标题判断题。通读全文可知，短文叙述了数百名村民自己动手，挖了数英里的沟来安装自己的电缆，现在他们拥有了超快的宽带网络。所以短文的最佳标题为“村民们自愿安装超高速宽带”。故选C项。
C
One
night
in
1966,
Michael
Chapman
rushed
into
a
folk?music
club
in
Cornwall,
England
to
get
out
of
the
rain,
and
soon
found
himself
onstage
playing
the
guitar.
“They
offered
me
a
job
to
play
for
the
rest
of
the
summer.
And
I've
been
playing
ever
since，”
Chapman
says.
“I've
told
that
story
so
many
times,
but
it's
absolutely
true.
If
it
hadn't
been
raining
that
night,
I
wouldn't
be
talking
to
you.”
The
British
guitar
player
has
spent
the
50
years
since
then
on
the
road.
He
released
some
praised
albums
in
the
1970s,
but
his
health
went
downhill
in
the
80s
and
90s.
Like
a
lot
of
British
artists
in
the
1960s,
Chapman
taught
himself
to
play
the
guitar
by
listening
to
American
jazz
and
blues
records.
Chapman
actually
taught
photography,
but
quit
when
he
was
26
to
play
music
full
time.
When
he
was
starting
out,
he
was
often
compared
to
other
British
acoustic
(原声的)
guitar
heroes
of
the
time,
like
John
Martyn
and
Bert
Jansch.
“The
fascinating
thing
about
Michael
Chapman
is
that
he
doesn't
fit
in
with
those
guys
of
his
generation，”
says
Andrew
Male,
a
music
journalist.
“He's
always
been
an
outsider.
He
never
moved
to
London.”
And
while
he
never
became
part
of
the
London
music
scene,
Chapman
was
noticed
by
those
musicians.
“The
70s
caught
up
with
him
in
the
80s，”
Male
says.
“He
had
a
huge
heart
attack
at
the
end
of
the
80s
that
nearly
finished
him
off.
When
he
made
his
way
back
into
the
world
in
the
early
90s,
people
had
forgotten
about
him.”
But
not
everyone.
A
younger
generation
of
musicians
in
America,
including
Thurston
Moore
of
Sonic
Youth
and
a
younger
singer
and
guitarist
named
Steve
Gunn,
recently
rediscovered
Chapman.
“We
wanted
to
capture
Michael's
voice
and
character
where
he
is
now.
You
know,
it's
a
little
road?weary,
but
he
still
has
it，”
Gunn
says.
“For
me,
it
was
really
important
to
get
that
right.”
“He's
the
right
old
musician
for
present
times，”
Male
says.
“I
think
the
music
he
makes
seems
quite
in
tune
with
where
we're
at.”
这是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了一位吉他演奏老艺术家Chapman的演艺经历以及新一代吉他演奏家Steve
Gunn认为Chapman创作的音乐和他们现在所处的环境很协调，所以他让老艺术家重新攀登音乐事业的高峰。
28．What
word
can
best
describe
Michael
Chapman's
first
involvement
in
music?
A．Untrue.
B．Accidental.
C．Unfortunate.
D．Reasonable.
答案：B
解析：推理判断题。根据第二段“If
it
hadn't
been
raining
that
night,
I
wouldn't
be
talking
to
you.”可推断，
Michael
Chapman走上音乐之路是偶然的。故选B。
29．What
can
we
learn
about
the
British
guitarist
John
Martyn
from
the
text?
A．He
used
to
teach
photography
full
time.
B．He
cannot
get
along
well
with
other
musicians.
C．He
may
be
very
familiar
with
American
jazz
and
blues.
D．He
may
be
one
of
the
best
guitar
players
in
the
early
90s.
答案：C
解析：推理判断题。根据第三段的最后一句“Like
a
lot
of
British
artists
in
the
1960s,
Chapman
taught
himself
to
play
the
guitar
by
listening

he
was
often
compared
to

British
acoustic

guitar
heroes
of

like
John
Martyn
and
Bert
Jansch.”可推断，
John
Martyn作为那个年代的吉他艺术家，应该很熟悉美国的爵士乐及蓝调音乐。故选C。
30．Why
did
Michael
Chapman
quit
his
music
career
once?
A．He
lost
his
special
voice.
B．He
suffered
from
a
severe
heart
attack.
C．He
got
tired
of
competing
with
others.
D．He
was
almost
forgotten
by
everyone.
答案：B
解析：细节理解题。根据第六段“He
had
a
huge
heart
attack
at
the
end
of
the
80s
that
nearly
finished
him
off.
When
he
made
his
way
back
into
the
world
in
the
early
90s,

Michael
Chapman中断他的音乐职业生涯是因为一次严重的心脏病发作。故选B。

D
Why
are
photos
and
videos
of
cats
high?fiving
suddenly
popping
up
on
social
media?
Ask
Jackson
Galaxy,
who
launched
Cat
Pawsitive
last
year,
a
program
that
encourages
animal
shelters
to
teach
cats
how
to
do
tricks
to
make
them
more
attractive
for
adoption.
The
idea
is
simple.
A
kitty
that
can
sit
on
command
or
give
a
high
five
shows
that
it
can
listen
to
instructions
and
connect
with
others.
A
high
five
can
make
a
shy
cat
open
up,
Galaxy
said.
“Big
life
changes
can
lead
to
cats
losing
their
confidence,
and
we
help
those
cats
to
feel
more
confident
and
to
feel
safe
interacting
with
new
people.”
Christie
Rogero,
program
manager
for
Cat
Pawsitive,
said.
And
Stephen
Holdeman,
training
manager
at
the
KC
Pet
Project,
added:
“All
we
need
to
train
a
cat
to
do
tricks
is
the
right
amount
of
patience,
timing
and
motivation.”
He
uses
a
technique
called
“operant
conditioning
(操作性条件反射)”，
which
associates
a
cat's
action
with
getting
a
reward
such
as
a
favorite
food
or
treat.
He
also
uses
a
clicker—a
training
device
that
makes
a
clicking
noise.
“In
the
initial
stage,
we
get
the
cat
used
to
the
idea
that
when
it
hears
the
sound
of
the
clicker,
one
of
its
favorite
treats
appears.
After
we
have
bridged
these
two
ideas
together
we
can
use
the
clicker
to
reinforce
different
actions
the
cat
does
to
let
it
know
that
if
it
repeats
the
action,
it
will
get
a
treat.”
After
several
repetitions,
the
cat
starts
to
link
everything
together.
Now
all
you
need
to
do
is
let
your
extended
hand
be
the
target,
and
we've
got
a
high
five.
这是一篇新闻报道。短文报道了美国发起“猫咪击掌”的爱心慈善活动的相关内容，
包括它所产生的意义以及训练猫咪的技巧。
32．According
to
the
text,
how
can
learning
tricks
benefit
cats
at
animal
shelters?
A．It
is
a
good
way
for
shelters
to
raise
money.
B．It
allows
them
to
pick
up
skills
to
stay
safe.
C．It
helps
them
interact
more
with
each
other.
D．It
helps
them
build
confidence
and
get
adopted.
答案：D
解析：细节理解题。由第二段“a
program
that
encourages
animal
shelters
to
teach
cats
how
to
do
tricks
to
make
them
more
attractive
for
adoption.”和第四段“we
help
those
cats
to
feel
more
confident
and
to
feel
safe
interacting
with
new
people.”可知，“猫咪击掌”鼓励动物收容所教授猫如何做一些技巧，这让猫咪更容易被领养以及帮助这些猫在与陌生人交往时感到更自信，更安全。所以根据短文内容，在动物收容所让猫学习技巧能帮助猫建立信心，并被收养。故选D项。
33．According
to
the
text,
what
should
be
done
from
the
start
to
train
cats
to
learn
tricks?
A．Teaching
them
different
actions.
B．Teaching
them
how
to
use
a
clicker.
C．Making
them
patient
enough
to
repeat
actions.
D．Helping
them
connect
the
sound
of
a
clicker
with
treats.
答案：D
解析：细节理解题。由第六段“In
the
initial
stage,
we
get
the
cat
used
to
the
idea
that
when
it
hears
the
sound
of
the
clicker,
one
of
its
favorite
treats
appears.”可知，在最初的阶段，我们让猫习惯了这样的做法：当它听到点击器的声音时，它最喜欢的一种食物就会出现。所以根据短文，从一开始应该把点击器的声音和食物联系起来帮助训练猫学习技巧。故选D项。
34．What
does
the
underlined
word
“reinforce”
in
Paragraph
6
probably
mean?
A．Record.
B．Strengthen.
C．Ignore.
D．Reward.
答案：B
解析：词义猜测题。由第六段“After
we
have
bridged
these
two
ideas
together
we
can
use
the
clicker
to
reinforce
different
actions
the
cat
does
to
let
it
know
that
if
it
repeats
the
action,
it
will
get
a
treat.”可知，在我们把这两个概念结合起来之后，我们可以使用点击器来强化猫所做的不同动作，让它知道如果它重复这个动作，它会得到一个奖励。所以通过上下文语境可以判断出，第6段画线的“reinforce”的意思是加强。故选B项。
35．What
is
the
main
purpose
of
the
article?
A．To
explain
how
to

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。
The
history
of
writing
instruments,
with
which
humans
have
recorded
and
conveyed
thoughts
and
feelings,
is
the
history
of
civilization
itself.
This
is
how
we
know
about
our
ancestors
and
their
life.
The
handy
sharpened?stone
was
adapted
into
the
first
writing
instrument.
Around
24,000
BC,
the
cave
man
started
drawing
pictures
with
the
stone
onto
the
walls
of
his
cave.
__36__
Walls
at
the
Apollo
site
in
Namibia
are
believed
to
be
the
oldest
rock
paintings
to
date.
Before
paper
came
along,
people
used
clay
or
wax
tablets
on
which
they
wrote
with
sharp
objects
such
as
metal
sticks
or
bones.
Around
6,000
years
ago,
the
Egyptians
invented
the
first
paper
like
material
called
papyrus.
The
word
“paper”
actually
comes
from
the
word
“papyrus”．
__37__
Bones
or
metal
sticks
were
no
longer
useful
as
the
papyrus
could
not
be
scratched.
So
the
Egyptians
created
a
reed
pen
perfect
for
the
papyrus.
__38__
And
thus,
ancient
Egyptians
transformed
bamboo
stems
(茎)
into
an
early
form
of
a
fountain
pen.
Another
writing
instrument
that
remained
active
in
history
for
a
long
period
was
the
quill
(鹅毛)
pen.
Introduced
around
700
AD,
the
quill
was
a
pen
made
from
a
bird
feather.
Goose
feathers
were
most
common.
__39__
For
making
fine
line
drawings,
crow
feathers
were
the
best.
When
writers
had
better
inks
and
paper
and
handwriting
had
developed
into
both
an
art
form
and
an
everyday
occurrence,
man's
inventive
nature
once
again
turned
to
improving
the
writing
instrument.
__40__
A．Now
something
was
needed
to
write
upon
the
papyrus.
B．The
papyrus
became
the
most
popular
material
at
that
time.
C．Swan
feathers
were
of
a
high
quality,
being
rare
and
most
expensive.
D．Bamboo
stems
were
better
and
much
more
expensive
than
goose
feathers.
E．This
led
to
the
development
of
the
modern
fountain
pen
in
the
19th
century.
F．These
were
mostly
the
stems
of
grasses,
especially
from
the
bamboo
plant.
G．These
drawings
showed
events
in
daily
life
like
the
planting
of
crops
or
hunting
victories.
本文是一篇说明文。人类用来记录和表达思想感情的书写工具的历史，就是文明本身的历史。这就是我们了解我们的祖先和他们的生活的方式。文章介绍了改进书写工具的发展。
36．G 解析：上文提示“大约公元前24
000年，穴居人开始用石头在洞穴的墙上画画”。下文提示“纳米比亚阿波罗遗址的墙壁被认为是迄今为止最古老的岩画”。承接上下文，G项These
drawings
showed
events
in
daily
life
like
the
planting
of
crops
or
hunting
victories.(这些图画展示了日常生活中的事情，如种植庄稼或打猎的胜利。)切题。故选G。
37．A 解析：下文提示“由于纸莎草纸不能被刮出痕迹，骨头或金属棒不再有用”。承接下文，A项Now
something
was
needed
to
write
upon
the
papyrus.(现在需要可以在纸莎草纸上写字的东西。)切题。故选A。
38．F 解析：下文提示“因此，古埃及人把竹子的茎变成了早期形式的钢笔”。承接下文，F项
These
were
mostly
the
stems
of
grasses,
especially
from
the
bamboo
plant.(这些主要是草的茎，尤其是竹子的茎。)切题。故选F。
39．C 解析：上文提示“最常见的是鹅毛”。承接上文，C项Swan
feathers
were
of
a
high
quality,
being
rare
and
most
expensive.(天鹅羽毛质量很好，既稀有又昂贵。)切题。故选C。
40．E 解析：上文提示“当作家们有了更好的墨水、纸张而且书法已经发展成为一种艺术形式和日常生活的一部分时，人类的创造性再一次转向改进书写工具”。承接上文，E项This
led
to
the
development
of
the
modern
fountain
pen
in
the
19th
century.(这导致了现代钢笔在19世纪的发展。)切题。故选E。

I
started

本文是一篇记叙文。目前人们喜欢旅游，但文章介绍了另一种旅游形式——贫困之旅。人们在世界上最贫穷的地区进行旅游，这些旅行可能会唤醒人们更多地关注长期存在的贫困或战争的影响。
56．especially
解析：考查词性转换。句意：现在越来越多的人喜欢旅游，尤其是当假期来临的时候。此处是副词修饰when引导的时间状语从句，故填especially。
57．travelling
解析：考查动名词。句意：很多人冲出家门或公司去旅游景点。此处是动名词作定语，修饰spots，故答案为travelling。
58．and
解析：考查固定结构。句意：他们要么开车要么乘公共汽车、火车、轮船，等等。固定结构：and
so
on
“等等”。故答案为and。
59．is

be句型。句意：然而，还有另一种旅行方式——穷游。此处是there
be句型，句子主语是another
way
of
travelling，单数第三人称，一般现在时态，故答案为is。

experience。
62．countries

第二节(满分25分)
阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。续写的词数应为150左右。
Desiree,
a
4?year?old
girl,
was
sobbing
quietly
over
her
father,
Ken,
who
had
died
nine
months
earlier.
She
was
hugging
a
photograph
of
her
father
with
her
fingers
running
around
his
face.
“Daddy，”
she
said
softly,
“Why
won't
you
come
back？”
Instead
of
gradually
adjusting
to
her
father's
death,
Desiree
refused
to
accept
it.
“Daddy
will
be
home
soon，”
she'd
tell
her
mother.
“He's
at
work.
”
When
she
played
with
her
toy
telephone,
she
pretended
she
was
chatting
with
her
father.
“I
miss
you,
daddy，”
she'd
say,
“When
will
you
come
back？”
Desiree's
situation
made
her
mother
worried.
Days
later,
it
was
Ken's
birthday.
“How
will
I
send
him
a
card？”
Desiree
asked
her
mother.
“How
about
if
we
tie
a
letter
to
a
balloon，”
her
mother
said,
“and
send
it
up
to
heaven？”
Desiree's
eyes
immediately
lit
up.
Her
mother
took
her
to
a
store
and
Desiree
picked
out
a
balloon
with
HAPPY
BIRTHDAY
above
a
drawing
of
The
Little
Mermaid(美人鱼).
Desiree
and
her
father
had
often
watched
it.
The
child's
eyes
shone
as
they
were
on
the
way
to
Ken's
grave.
Then
Desiree
dictated
a
letter
to
her
dad.
“Tell
him,
‘Happy
birthday,
I
love
you
and
miss
you，’
”
she
rattled
off(快速说).
“
I
hope
you
get
this
and
can
write
to
me
on
my
birthday
in
January.
”
Her
mother
wrote
the
message
and
their
address
on
a
small
piece
of
paper,
which
was
then
wrapped
in
plastic
and
tied
to
the
end
of
the
string
on
the
balloon.
Finally,
Desiree
released
the
balloon.
For
almost
an
hour,
they
watched
the
shining
spot
of
silver
grow
smaller
and
smaller
till
it
disappeared.
“Now
Dad's
going
to
write
back
to
me，”
Desiree
declared
confidently.
Every
day
since
they'd
released
the
balloon,
Desiree
had
asked
her
mother,
“Do
you
think
Daddy
has
my
balloon
yet？”
Several
weeks
passed,
and
she
stopped
asking.
答案
Paragraph
1：
One
day,
3,000
miles
away,
Wade
was
on
a
duck
hunt
when
suddenly
something
in
the
bush
caught
his
eye.
Curious,
he
approached
to
find
a
silver
balloon,
with
a
piece
of
paper
at
the
end
of
the
string,
wrapped
in
plastic.
Taking
it
home,
Wade
read
the
touching
lines
to
his
wife
Donna.
She
was
deeply
moved.
With
tears
in
her
eyes,
Donna
decided
to
help
Desiree.
The
couple
went
to
buy
a
birthday
card
and
a
book
of
The
Little
Mermaid,
and
then
she
began
to
write
a
letter
to
Desiree.
Paragraph
2：
Desiree's
fifth
birthday
came
and
later
on
the
afternoon,
a
package
arrived.
Looking
at
the
unfamiliar
return
address,
Desiree's
mother
was
confused.
Suddenly
an
idea
struck
her:
the
balloon!
She
opened
the
parcel
and
found
a
card
with
“For
a
Dear
Daughter”.
Her
heart
raced.
She
rushed
to
Desiree's
room
and
showed
her
the
letter.
“It's
from
Daddy！”
Desiree
jumped
with
joy,
asking
her
mother
to
read
it
for
her.
“Happy
birthday,
my
little
angel.”
Her
mother
began.
A
big
tear
began
to
trickle
down
Desiree's
cheek.
