Ian
Ellis
was
planning
on
doing
some
bird
watching.
But
instead,
he
took
part
in
an
incredible
__1__!
As
Ian
looked
through
his
telescope,
he
saw
the
curious
__2__.
A
herd
of
cows
surrounded
something
in
the
mud,
so
Ian
set
off
to
see
what
it
was.
And
what
he
found
was
a
complete
__3__!
The
preserve
was
only
a
few
miles
away
from
the
ocean.
Somehow,
a
5?day?old
baby
seal
(海豹)
had
found
its
way
to
the
grassland
and
had
become
__4__
in
the
mud.
So
Ian
arranged
for
it
to
be
taken
to
the
__5__
Natureland
Seal
Shelter.
At
the
shelter,
the
seal
was
named
Celebration,
and
it
was
__6__
that
she
was
suffering
from
several
diseases.
But
thanks
to
Ian
discovering
her,
Celebration
was
right
where
she
__7__
to
be
in
order
to
get
well.
She
__8__
made
some
friends
while
she
was
there!
Once
Celebration
__9__
recovered,
it
was
time
to
release
her
and
her
new
friend,
Charlie,
back
into
the
wild.
The
two
friends
were
__10__
to
the
seaside
by
a
shelter
staff
member,
where
Ian
__11__
them
to
say
farewell
to
Celebration.
He
would
do
the
honor
of
releasing
her
back
to
her
true
__12__.
Celebration
was
a
bit
more
hesitant
to
__13__
the
human
friends
she'd
made.
She
gradually
made
her
way
to
the
water
and
eventually
swam
out
to
sea,
but
not
before
__14__
back
to
say
goodbye
one
last
time.
Ian
says
overall
it
really
was
a
__15__
experience.

Lisinopril
What
is
lisinopril?
Lisinopril
is
a
medicine
to
treat
high
blood
pressure.
This
medicine
is
only
available
on
prescription.
It
comes
as
tablets.
It
also
comes
as
a
liquid
for
people
who
find
it
hard
to
swallow
tablets,
but
this
has
to
be
ordered
specially
by
your
doctor.
Important
information
To

if
you
have:
●Heart,
liver
or
kidney
problems
●Diabetes
(糖尿病)
●Higher
levels
of
potassium
(钾)
in
your
blood
Women
who
are
pregnant
can't
take
the
medicine.
It
could
harm
the
unborn
baby.
How
should
I
take
lisinopril?
●Take
lisinopril
exactly
as
prescribed
by
your
doctor.
Follow

B
Dr
John
Wilkins
was
a
natural
philosopher
who
lived
from
1614
until
1672.He
was
crazy
about
getting
to
the
moon
and
meeting
the
people
who
surely
lived
there.
Wilkins
believed
that
anything
as
Earth?like
as
the
moon
must
have
been
created
by
God
for
living
beings,
and
he
was
determined
to
meet
them—despite
the
fact
that
he
was
three
centuries
ahead
of
his
time.
In
the
1600s,
the
scientific
understanding
of
gravity
and
outer
space
was
limited.
Wilkins
believed,
like
many
17th?century
scientists,
that
there
was
no
difference
between
the
atmosphere
of
Earth
and
the
conditions
in
space,
and
that
Earth's
pull
was
due
to
magnetism
(磁力).
It
was
only
reasonable,
then,
that
Wilkins
believed
a
two?wheeled
horse?drawn
battle
car
with
wings
with
enough
speed
could
lift
high
enough
off
the
ground
to
break
free
of
Earth's
magnetic
pull
and
reach
the
moon.
Then
Wilkins
moved
on
to
more
pressing
issues
with
his
remarkable
ability
to
think
of
new
ideas:
How
would
travelers
feed
themselves
during
the
journey?
He
theorized
that
the
main
cause
of
hunger
was
simply
the
act
of
working
against
gravity,
so
getting
to
the
moon
without
being
burdened
by
it
would
be
able
to
be
realized.
There
was
some
knowledge
at
that
time
about
the
fact
that
air
gets
thinner
and
colder
the
higher
up
you
go,
but
he
had
a
fix
for
that
too,
“moistened
sponges
(湿润的海绵)
might
help
us
against
its
thinness”.
By
studying
the
way
in
which
birds
fly,
which
also
happened
to
be
part
of
the
studies
that
led
to
planes
and
rockets
centuries
later,
Wilkins
put
his
theory
to
the
test
with
the
help
of
a
colleague,
Robert
Hooke.
Neither
of
the
two
ever
recorded
their
attempts,
but
it's
somewhat
safe
to
say
that
it
didn't
work
out.
Hooke
himself
may
have
been
the
reason
he
gave
up
hope,
in
fact,
since
he
was
part
of
the
team
that
discovered
space
was
a
place
without
oxygen.
本文是一篇记叙文。约翰·威尔金斯博士是一位自然哲学家,他疯狂地想要登上月球,见到肯定住在那里的人,并为此在理论上做了很多准备。
4.What
do
we
know
about
Dr
John
Wilkins?
A.He
dreamed
of
landing
on
the
moon.
B.He
wrote
about
people
living
on
the
moon.
C.He
urged
the
public
to
know
more
about
space.
D.He
had
a
rich
knowledge
of
space
in
the
1670s.
答案:A
解析:细节理解题。根据第一段中Dr
John
Wilkins
was
a
natural
philosopher
who
lived
from
1614
until
1672.He
was
crazy
about
getting
to

lived
there.(约翰·威尔金斯博士是一位自然哲学家,生于1614年,卒于1672年。他疯狂地想要登上月球,并见到肯定住在那里的人。)可知,Dr
John
Wilkins梦想着登上月球。故选A。
5.Which
of
the
following
might
Wilkins
agree
with?
A.The
air
on
the
moon
is
not
fit
for
human
beings.
B.People
don't
need
to
eat
things
on
the
moon.
C.Earth's
magnetism
can
be
changed
easily.
D.Oxygen
doesn't
exist
in
outer
space.
答案:B
解析:推理判断题。根据第三段中He
theorized
that
the
main
cause
of
hunger
was
simply
the
act
of
working
against
gravity,
so
getting
to
the
moon
without
being
burdened
by
it
would
be
able
to
be
realized.(他的理论是,饥饿的主要原因仅仅是与重力做斗争的行为,所以不受重力的影响而登上月球是可以实现的。)可知,Wilkins认为人们在月球上不受重力的影响,因此不需要在月球上吃东西。故选B。
6.What
can
be
concluded
from
Paragraphs
2
&
3?
A.Wilkins
had
prepared
a
lot
in
theory.
B.Wilkins
was
ready
for
his
moon?landing.
C.Wilkins
made
a
great
contribution
to
philosophy.
D.Wilkins
was
the
greatest
natural
philosopher
in
history.
答案:A
解析:推理判断题。根据第二段中In
the
1600s,
the
scientific
understanding
of
gravity
and
outer
space
was
limited.
Wilkins
believed,
like
many
17th?century

and
that
Earth's

to
magnetism
(磁力).(在17世纪,对重力和外层空间的科学理解是有限的。威尔金斯和许多17世纪的科学家一样,认为地球的大气层和太空环境没有区别,地球的引力是由磁力引起的。)和第三段中Then
Wilkins
moved
on
to
more
pressing
issues
with
his
remarkable
ability
to
think
of
new
ideas:
How
would
travelers
feed
themselves
during
the
journey?(然后,威尔金斯以其非凡的创新思维能力,转向更紧迫的问题:旅行者在旅途中如何养活自己?)可推知,威尔金斯在理论上做了很多准备。故选A。
7.What
is
the
author's
purpose
in
writing
the
text?
A.To
honor
a
great
scientist.
B.To
encourage
studies
on
outer
space.
C.To
introduce
an
early
attempt
of
moon?landing.
D.To
inform
people
of
the
knowledge
about
the
universe.
答案:C
解析:推理判断题。根据第一段中He

Wilkins
believed
that

A
Every
spring
flowers
suddenly
come
out
everywhere
on
the
same
day,
as
if
they
had
an
agreement
with
one
another.
But
how
exactly
do
plants
“know”
when
to
flower?
It's
a
question
puzzling
biologists
for
years.
But
according
to
Science
Daily,
a
US
research
group
may
have
finally
answered
it—the
secret
lies
in
a
protein
called
FKF1.This
allows
plants
to
sense
the
differences
in
day
lengths
so
that
they
can
tell
the
seasons
are
changing.
Researchers
found
the
protein
when
they
were
studying
a
plant
called
Arabidopsis.
They
found
it's
a
photoreceptor
(感光器).
This
means
it's
sensitive
to,
and
can
be
activated
(激活)
by
sunlight.
Plants
produce
the
protein
every
day
in
the
late
afternoon
throughout
the
year.
If
there's
no
light
at
this
time,
for
example,
in
winter
when
the
sun
goes
down
early,
it
may
not
be
activated.
But
when
spring
comes
and
the
days
get
longer,
it
can
be
activated
by
daylight
and
the
plants
“know”
it's
time
to
flower.
Although
researchers
have
only
studied
how
the
FKF1
protein
works
in
the
Arabidopsis,
they
believe
that
the
process
is
similar
in
many
other
more
complex
(复杂)
plants,
including
crops
like
rice
and
wheat.
This
could
be
useful
to
the
agricultural
industry.
“If
we
can
control
the
timing
of
flowering,
we
might
be
able
to
produce
more
crops
by
putting
it
forward
or
putting
it
off,”
a
leader
of
the
study
said.
“Also,
if
we
could
control
the
timing
of
flowering
in
horticultural
(园艺的)
plants,
they
may
be
worth
more
money.”
What
an
amazing
thing
to
think
about
this!
本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了研究人员发现一种叫FKF1的蛋白质告诉植物开花的时间。
1.How
do
plants
know
when
to
flower?
A.They
get
messages
from
some
insects.
B.They
receive
messages
from
other
plants.
C.A
certain
protein
tells
them
the
time
to
flower.
D.Sunlight
produces
a
protein
in
them
to
help
them
flower.
答案:C
解析:细节理解题。根据第二段中的“But
according
to
Science
Daily,
a
US
research
group
may
have
finally
answered
it—the
secret
lies
in
a
protein
called
FKF1.”可知,一种叫FKF1的蛋白质告诉植物开花的时间,故C项正确。
2.What
can
we
learn
from
the
article?
A.The
study
may
benefit
agricultural
industry.
B.We
may
have
plants
that
flower
all
year
round.
C.Plants
don't
flower
in
cold
weather
and
short
days.
D.Researchers
found
the
protein
by
studying
rice
and
wheat.
答案:A
解析:细节理解题。根据倒数第三段中的“This
could
be
useful
to
the
agricultural
industry.”可知,这项研究可能对农业有益,故A项正确。
3.What's
the
writer's
attitude
towards
the
study?
A.Negative.
B.Positive.
C.Uncaring.
D.Unclear.
答案:B
解析:推理判断题。倒数第二段说如果我们能控制开花的时间,我们或许可以通过提前或推迟开花来生产更多的作物。此外,如果我们能控制园艺植物开花的时间,它们可能更值钱,最后一段作者认为这是一件不可思议的事情,由此可知作者对这项研究持积极的态度,故B项正确。
B
Breathing
dirty
air
comes
at
a
high
price.
Air
pollution
lowers
the
average
life
spans
(寿命)
by
a
year
worldwide
and
in
more
polluted
parts
of
Asia
and
Africa,
dirty
air
shortens
lives
up
to
twice
that
much.
Scientists
shared
their
new
findings
in
Environmental
Science
&
Technology
Letters.
The
study
used
data
gathered
in
2016
as
part
of
a
project
known
as
the
Global
Burden
of
Disease
and
was
the
first
major
country?by?country
look
at
the
connection
between
the
length
of
life
and
what's
known
as
fine
PM.
Air
pollution
has
been
linked
to
many
health
problems.
Most
earlier
studies
had
looked
at
how
tiny
air
pollutants
affected
rates
of
illness
or
death.
Joshua
Apte
is
an
environmental
scientist
at
the
University
of
Texas
at
Austin.
By
looking
at
life
expectancy
(预期寿命),
his
team
had
hoped
to
make
the
threat
easier
to
understand.
PM2.5
is
what
scientists
call
tiny
particles
(颗粒)
of
pollution
in
the
air.
Higher
levels
of
PM2.5
can
cause
health
problems
and
cut
months,
if
not
years,
from
the
average
length
of
life.
This
analysis
shows
how
pollution
affects
life
expectancy
in
different
parts
of
the
world.
The
World
Health
Organization
(WHO)
recommends
limiting
PM2.5
to
10
micrograms
per
cubic
meter
of
air.
Apte's
group
calculated
how
holding
pollution
to
this
low
level
would
help
people.
In
countries
with
very
dirty
air,
meeting
this
standard
would
lengthen
people's
lives.
However,
in
countries
whose
air
already
meets
this
standard,
the
study
shows
no
gain
in
life
expectancy.
In
other
words,
meeting
the
WHO
standard
won't
reduce
health
costs
resulting
from
dirty
air
because
even
below
10
micrograms
per
cubic
meter,
pollution
still
causes
serious
risks.
Meanwhile,
the
scientists
compared
how
other
threats
including
smoking
and
cancer
shorten
the
length
of
life
across
the
globe.
本文是一篇说明文。在全球范围内,空气污染使人的平均寿命降低了一年,而在污染更严重的亚洲和非洲地区,空气污染使人的寿命缩短了两倍之多。科学家们在《环境科学与技术快报》上分享了他们的新发现。该研究分析了不同国家居民的寿命与PM之间的关系。
4.What
is
special
about
the
study?
A.It
won
recognition
from
a
professional
journal.
B.It
discussed
health
problems
caused
by
air
pollution.
C.It
gathered
lots
of
data
for
the
Global
Burden
of
Disease.
D.It
analyzed
the
link
between
life
spans
and
PM
by
country.
答案:D

trying
to
do?
A.Help
people

(Joshua
Apte)是德克萨斯大学奥斯汀分校的环境科学家。通过观察预期寿命,他的团队希望能让这种威胁更容易理解。)可知,Joshua
Apte的团队帮助人们更好地了解空气污染。故选A。
6.What
will
happen
if
a
country
limits
PM2.5
to
10
micrograms

C.People's
health
may
not

improved.
D.It
will
guarantee
people
clean

答案:C
解析:推理判断题。根据最后一段中The
World
Health
Organization
(WHO)
recommends
limiting
PM2.5
to
10
micrograms
per
cubic
meter
of
air.(世界卫生组织
(WHO)建议将PM2.5浓度限制在每立方米10微克以内。)和In
other
words,
meeting
the
WHO
standard
won't
reduce
health
costs
resulting
from
dirty
air
because
even
below
10
micrograms
per
cubic
meter,
pollution
still
causes
serious
risks.(换句话说,达到世界卫生组织的标准并不能降低空气污染造成的健康成本,因为即使低于每立方米10微克,污染仍然会造成严重的风险。)可知,如果一个国家将PM2.5浓度限制在每立方米10微克,人们的健康状况可能不会有太大改善。故选C。
7.What
might
be
discussed
in
the
following
paragraphs?
A.How
cleaning
up
the
air
can
lengthen
lives.
B.How
air
pollution
shortens
lives
by
country.
C.How
other
threats
shorten
life
expectancy.
D.How
all
the
countries
deal
with
severe
pollution.
答案:C
解析:推理判断题。根据最后一段中Meanwhile,
the
scientists
compared
how
other
threats
including
smoking
and
cancer
shorten
the
length
of
life
across
the
globe.(与此同时,科学家们比较了包括吸烟和癌症在内的其他威胁是如何缩短全球寿命的。)由此推知,接下来要讨论的是“其他威胁如何缩短预期寿命”。故选C。
Have
you
ever
been
bored
and
decided
to
check
social
media,
only
to
find
out
that
your
best
friend
is
at
Disneyland,
that
one
of
your
classmates
is
eating
delicious
pizza
at
your
favorite
pizza
store,
and
that
one
of
your
soccer
teammates
is
climbing
the
Eiffel
Tower
in
Paris?
Have
you
ever
had
that
feeling
that
others
are
experiencing
things
and
enjoying
life
more
than
you
are?
Oh,
man!
You're
missing
out!
__1__
Researchers
call
that
feeling
the
fear
of
missing
out
or
FOMO.
__2__
It's
so
easy
today
to
see
what
your
friends
are
doing
from
the
social
media.
Unluckily,
we
only
have
so
much
time
in
the
day
and
only
so
much
money
to
spend
on
food
or
entertainment.
It
would
be
impossible
for
us
to
enjoy
all
the
same
activities
we
see
others
take
part
in
on
social
media.
Rather
than
realizing
this
basic
truth,
though,
we
usually
let
FOMO
lead
us
to
compare
our
lives
with
those
of
others
on
social
media.
__3__
Why?
We
know
all
the
sides
of
our
lives—both
good
and
bad.
But
all
we
see
on
social
media
are
the
picture?perfect
moments
others
share.
__4__
FOMO
makes
us
check
social
media
more
frequently,
leading
to
addiction
and
a
negative
cycle
that
can
be
hard
to
break.
Researchers
have
found
that
social
media
and
FOMO
can
cause
serious
negative
results,
including
feeling
of
depression,
loneliness
and
boredom.
__5__
Researchers
advise
that
we
stop
looking
to
social
media
for
happiness.
Instead,
we
should
focus
our
attention
on
our
real
lives,
including
the
people
around
us
and
all
the
things
we're
grateful
for.
A.Have
you
ever
experienced
FOMO?
B.At
least
that's
what
you
might
think.
C.This
certainly
leaves
us
feeling
dissatisfied.
D.So
how
do
we
break
the
cycle
and
avoid
FOMO?
E.Over
75%
of
young
people
report
feeling
FOMO
from
time
to
time.
F.As
famous
Theodore
Roosevelt
said,
“Comparison
is
the
thief
of
joy.”
G.If
you
let
FOMO
control
you,
the
only
thing
you'll
really
be
missing
out
on
is
your
own
life.
本文是一篇说明文。文章讲述了社交媒体对人们的影响,呼吁人们关注周围真实的世界。
1.B 解析:根据上文“Have
you
ever
had
that
feeling
that
others
are
experiencing
things
and
enjoying
life
more
than

out
or
FOMO”,引出下文对于这种感觉的说明。故选E项。
3.C 解析:根据上文“Rather
than
realizing
this
basic
truth,
though,
we
usually
let
FOMO
lead
us
to
compare
our
lives
with
those
of
others
on
social
media.”可知人们通常与其他人进行比较;再根据下文“We
know
all
the
sides
of
our
lives—both
good
and
bad.
But
all
we
see
on
social
media
are
the
picture?perfect
moments
others
share.”可知我们只是知道他们的美好瞬间。C项“This
certainly
leaves
us
feeling
dissatisfied.”(这会使我们不高兴)承上启下,符合语境。故选C项。
4.F 解析:根据下文“FOMO
makes
us
check
social
media
more
frequently,
leading
to
addiction
and
a

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。
Craig
watched
his
old
sister,
Riley,
and
her
friend
Liz
race
up
and
down
the
lake
on
their
skates,
avoiding
other
hockey
(曲棍球)
players.
Their
skate
blades
looked
like
silver
smoke.
When
the
game
was
over,
the
girls
skated
up
to
the
bench
where
Craig
was
sitting.
Craig
asked
Riley
what
skating
felt
like.
“When
I
go
really
fast,
I
feel
like
I'm
flying,”
she
said.
That's
silly,
thought
Craig.
Flying
is
something
birds
do
in
the
air,
not
something
people
do
on
ice
skates.
Then
he
watched
Riley
go
back
out
on
the
ice.
She
skated
around
and
around
the
edge
of
the
lake
with
her
arms
pumping
and
her
scarf
trailing
behind
her.
Soon
she
went
so
fast
that
her
arms
looked
like
wings
and
her
scarf
looked
like
a
feathery
tail.
Maybe
skating
really
was
like
flying.
When
Riley
sat
down
to
take
her
skates
off,
Craig
said,
“I
wish
I
could
fly.”
Riley
retied
her
skate
laces
and
crouched
next
to
Craig.
“Get
on
my
back,”
she
said,
and
Craig
did.
Riley
started
skating,
but
Craig
didn't
feel
like
he
was
flying.
It
just
felt
like
a
shaking
piggyback
ride.
“You're
too
heavy,”
Riley
said.
“I
can't
go
fast
when
I'm
carrying
you.”
She
skated
slowly
back
to
the
bench.
Craig
got
off
her
back.
“Even
if
you
could
go
fast,
I
wouldn't
be
flying,”
he
said
sadly.
“I
need
skates
to
fly.”
Riley
didn't
say
anything
on
the
walk
home,
but
a
few
days
later
she
asked
Craig
if
he
wanted
to
go
skating.
“To
watch?”
he
asked.
“No,
to
skate,”
she
said
cheerfully.
“Mom
and
I
found
a
pair
of
my
old
skates.
They
might
fit
you.”
The
skates
were
a
little
big,
but
when
Riley
stuffed
newspaper
in
the
toes,
they
fit.
Craig
couldn't
stop
smiling.
He
didn't
want
to
take
them
off,
but
he
had
to
so
he
could
walk
to
the
lake.
Riley
and
Liz
went
with
him.
They
carried
their
hockey
sticks
and
a
wooden
chair.
Hardly
had
they
got
to
the
lake
when
Craig
put
his
skates
back
on
and
Riley
helped
him
onto
the
ice.
答案
Paragraph
1:
Then
she
put
his
hands
on
the
back
of
the
chair.
“Hang
on
this
and
you
won't
fall,”
she
said.
His
feet
trembling,
Craig
tried
to
move
cautiously
with
his
hands
grabbing
the
chair
firmly.
Riley
and
Liz
cheered
him
on
as
he
started
to
move
forward.
But
Craig
slowly
lowered
his
head,
frowning,
as
he
inched
along
and
he
even
couldn't
skate
without
the
chair.
This
wasn't
like
flying
at
all.
Realizing
his
frustration,
Riley
patted
his
shoulder
and
comforted,
“It
takes
practice.
Someday
you
will.”
Then
she
winked
at
Liz
and
whispered
something
to
her.
Paragraph
2:
After
a
while,
each
girl
took
one
of
Craig's
hands.
“Someday
you'll
fly
on
your
own,”
Riley
said.
“But
today
Liz
and
I
will
help
you.”
They
started
skating,
pulling
Craig
with
them.
The
girls
went
faster
and
faster,
and
so
did
he.
Craig
felt
the
wind
touching
his
face
merrily
with
brilliant
sparkle
in
his
eyes.
When
he
looked
down,
his
skate
blades
looked
like
a
silver
light.
“I'm
flying!”
he
yelled,
and
the
words
blew
away
in
the
wind
like
a
bird's
happy
song.

you're
sure
to
feel
dizzy
over
these
jaw?dropping
pools.
Sky

Located
on
the
Sky

this
is
the
world's
largest
rooftop

is
at

three
times
the
length
of
an
Olympic
swimming

As
visitors
swim
toward
the
edge,
they
face
an

The
Library
Koh
Samui,
Thailand
This
blood?red

is
perhaps
one
of
the
most
special
hotel
pools
on
the
list.
Set
against
the
backdrop
of
Koh
Samui's
Chaweng
Beach,
the
fascinating
colour
isn't
the
result
of
using
artificial
dye.
Rather,
the
mosaic
tiles
(马赛克瓷砖)
of
orange,
yellow
and
red
make
the
brilliant
sight
that
is
set
among
trees
and
an

B
I've
come
back
to
check
on
a
baby.
Just
after
dusk
I'm
in
a
car
down
a
muddy
road
in
the
rain,
past
rows
of
shackled
(戴镣的)
elephants,
their
trunks
swinging.
I
was
here
five
hours
before,
when
the
sun
was
high
and
hot
and
tourists
were
on
elephants'
backs.
Walking
now,
I
can
barely
see
the
path
in
the
glow
of
my
phone's
flashlight.
When
the
wooden
fence
post
stops
me
short,
I
point
my
light
down
and
follow
a
current
of
rainwater
across
the
concrete
floor
until
it
washes
up
against
three
large,
gray
feet.
A
fourth
foot
twisted
above
the
surface,
tied
tightly
by
a
short
chain
and
choked
by
ring
of
metal
spikes
(尖刺).
When
the
elephant
tires
and
puts
her
foot
down,
the
spikes
press
deeper
into
her
ankle.
Meena
is
four
years
and
two
months
old,
still
a
child
as
elephants
go.
Khammon
Kongkhaw,
her
caretaker,
told
me
earlier
that
Meena
wears
the
spiked
chain
because
she
tends
to
kick.
Kongkhaw
has
been
responsible
for
Meena
here
at
Maetaman
Elephant
Adventure,
near
Chiang
Mai,
in
northern
Thailand,
since
she
was
11
months
old.
He
said
he
keeps
her
on
the
spiked
chain
only
during
the
day
and
takes
it
off
at
night.
But
it's
night
now.
I
ask
Jin
Laoshen,
the
Maetaman
worker
accompanying
me
on
this
nighttime
visit,
why
her
chain
is
still
on.
He
says
he
doesn't
know.
Maetaman
is
one
of
many
animal
attractions
in
and
around
tourist?crowded
Chiang
Mai.
Meena's
life
is
set
to
follow
the
same
track
as
many
of
the
roughly
3,800
captive
(被捕获的)
elephants
in
Thailand.
When
Meena
is
too
old
or
sick
to
give
rides—maybe
at
55,
maybe
at
75
she'll
die.
If
she's
lucky,
she'll
get
a
few
years
of
retirement.
She'll
spend
most
of
her
life
on
a
chain.
本文是一篇记叙文,作者通过在泰国目睹大象的悲惨遭遇,呼吁人们关注大象的命运。
4.Why
does
the
author
decide
to
come
back?
A.She
wants
to
check
baby
elephant
Meena.
B.She
wants
to
feed
those
shackled
elephants.
C.She
wants
to
release
those
shackled
elephants.
D.She
knows
a
baby
is
in
need
of
help
urgently.
答案:A
解析:细节理解题。根据第一段中的“I've
come
back
to
check
on
a
baby.”,可知作者回来检查是因为不放心小象Meena。故选A项。
5.What
can
we
conclude
from
the
second
paragraph?
A.The
author
is
scared
walking
in
the
path.
B.Meena
is
treated
badly
and
very
painful.
C.Meena
only
has
three
healthy
legs.
D.One
of
Meena's
leg
is
badly
broken.
答案:B
解析:细节理解题。根据第二段中“A
fourth
foot
twisted
above
the
surface,
tied
tightly
by
a
short
chain
and
choked
by
ring
of
metal
spikes
(尖刺).
When
the
elephant
tires
and
puts
her
foot
down,
the
spikes
press
deeper
into
her
ankle.”可知,小象Meena被带刺的铁链拴着,一只脚不能落下,可知小象被虐待,并且很痛苦。故选B项。
6.What's
the
author's
attitude
towards
those
elephants?
A.Indifferent.
B.Critical.
C.Sympathetic.
D.Negative.
答案:C
解析:推理判断题。根据第三段中“He
said
he
keeps
her
on
the
spiked
chain
only
during
the
day
and
takes
it
off
at
night.
But
it's
night
now.”结合全文作者对大象悲惨命运的描写,可知作者对这些被人类囚禁以营利的动物表示同情。故选C项。
7.We
can
infer
that
the
purpose
of
the
author's
writing
is
________.
A.to
describe
those
elephants
to
attract
tourists
around
the
world
B.to
appeal
to
people
to
care
about
the
fate
of
those
elephants
C.to
tell
readers
the
story
of
a
baby
elephant
in
Chiang
Mai,
Thailand
D.to
tell
the
reason
why
the
number
of
elephants
is
decreasing
答案:B
解析:推理判断题。根据本文判断作者同情这些旅游地为吸引游客而被囚禁的大象等动物的命运,作者写本文就是为了呼吁人们去关心这些动物的命运。故选B项。

B
I
am
Fionn
Ferreira,
an
Irish
teenager.
I
am
very
delighted
to
have
won
$50,000
for
my
project.
My
project
came
about
as
I
was
constantly
hearing
about
plastic
pollution
on
the
news.
And
I
also
see
the
real
effects
on
our
beaches
every
day.
I
discovered,
to
my
shock,
that
at
present
no
filtration
(过滤)
for
microplastics
takes
place
in
any
European
wastewater
treatment
centres,
so
I
started
looking
for
a
solution.
Seeing
that
there
was
none,
I
decided
to
investigate
further,
finally
finding
a
way
to
use
the
ferrofluid
(铁磁流体),
a
liquid
which
sticks
to
the
plastic
allowing
it
to
be
removed
using
magnets.
After
over
1,000
tests
I
have
proved
that
my
method
would
remove
87%
or
higher
of
microplastics.
I
grew
up
in
West
Cork,
Ireland.
My
hometown
is
surrounded
by
untouched
nature.
This
has
been
my
primary
inspiration
about
how
nature
works.
I
soon
discovered
that
science
really
was
in
everything.
The
fact
that
I
lived
in
such
a
remote
place
meant
that
I
had
to
build
my
own
equipment
and
lab
to
conduct
tests
and
experiments.
Inspired
by
scientists
such
as
Ben
Feringa
and
his
work
with
organic
chemistry
and
nanotechnology
(纳米技术),
I
would
like
to
study
chemistry
or
chemical
engineering
when
finishing
my
last
year
of
secondary
school.
Both
of
these
subjects
will
be
suited
to
me
as
I
really
enjoy
problem?solving
and
experiments.
One
of
the
most
valuable
rewards
from
the
science
fair
for
me
is
the
opportunity
to
present
my
work
to
a
group
of
professional
judges.
Winning
the
prize
is
a
great
honour
to
me
as
this
is
an
acknowledgement
of
my
project
and
ideas.
Also,
winning
the
prize
will
give
my
project
more
attention.
There
is
nothing
I
would
like
to
see
more
than
my
project
to
be
used
in
addressing
microplastics
in
our

While
many
Chinese
watched
movies
at
cinemas
during
the
weeklong
Spring
Festival
holiday,
Zheng
Wei
explained
the
film
The
Spring
Festival
to
an
audience
of
visually
impaired
(受损伤的)
people
at
a
cinema
in
Northern
China's
Tianjin.
“Fireworks
light
up
the
dark
on
New
Year's
Eve,
and
children
are
playing
in
an
open
place
covered
with
white
snow,”
said
Zheng
to
the
audience,
describing
the
visual
elements
of
the
movie
while
holding
a
microphone
and
a
script.
As
the
founder
of
“cinema
for
the
blind”
in
Tianjin,the
55?year?old
has
insisted
on
brightening
the
dark
world
of
the
visually
impaired
in
his
own
way
for
11
years.
Shao
Yuxiang
and
her
husband,
who
are
both
blind,
are
regular
visitors
of
the
cinema.
She
wore
an
elegant
yellow
sweater
to
attend
the
couple's
significant
“movie
day”.
Since
October
2007,
the
free
movies,
which
are
described
through
audio,
start
at
9:
30
am
on
the
third
Saturday
of
each
month.
More
than
150
movies
have
been
screened
to
more
than
20,000
visually
impaired
people
so
far.
“The
theater
is
equipped
with
lights,
a
sound
system,
projector,
and
a
big
screen
to
give
the
blind
people
a
complete
and
equal
movie
experience,
”Zheng
said.
In
2007,
after
having
learned
that
a
“cinema
for
the
blind”
established
by
Wang
Weili
had
benefited
many
visually
impaired
people
in
Beijing,
Zheng
rushed
to
Wang's
establishment
for
advice.
Under
Wang's
guidance,
Zheng
built
a
new
cinema
in
Tianjin
and
screened
The
Dream
Factory
by
Chinese
director
Feng
Xiaogang.
It
attracted
more
than
50
visually
impaired
people
from
different
districts
and
even
suburban
areas
in
Tianjin.
Zheng
always
treats
movie
selections
with
seriousness.
He
usually
chooses
Mandarin
language
movies
with
positive
themes
that
reflect
modern
society.
Special
movies
for
certain
Chinese
festivals
are
also
part
of
Zheng's
selection
criteria.
“For
example,
The
Founding
of
a
Republic
is
specially
for
National
Day.
Now,
films
for
the
Spring
Festival
are
on
my
agenda,”
Zheng
said.

Wei独创盲人电影院,并坚持了11年,因此“The
‘cinema
for
the
blind’
that
will
never
close盲人影院永远不会关门”符合主旨大意,作为题目最为合适。故选D项。
D
Demand
for
the
Chinese
tech
company's
devices
(设备)
is
red
hot
even
though
the
country's
overall
market
for
smartphones
is
getting
smaller.
Huawei's
China
sales
rocketed
more
than
20%
in
the
final
quarter
of
2018,
and
experts
say
that's
partly
due
to
the
US
government's
global
campaign
against
the
company.
“The
latest
tension
between
the
US
and
China
raised
the
patriotism
(爱国主义)
in
Chinese
consumers,”
said
Jusy
Hong,
an
analyst
at
research
firm
IHS
Markit.
He
pointed
out
that
some
Chinese
companies
encouraged
employees
to
buy
Huawei
phones
late
last
year.
The
moves
were
a
gesture
of
support
after
the
firm's
chief
financial
officer
was
arrested
in
Canada
in
early
December
at
the
request
of
the
United
States.
Huawei's
booming
sales
show
how
major
parts
of
its
business
continue
to
increase
even
as
the
United
States
tries
to
persuade
other
countries
to
shut
Huawei
products
out
of
5G
wireless
networks
and
pursues
(追究)
criminal
charges
against
it.
The
company
expects
to
overtake
Samsung
as
the
world's
biggest
smartphone
maker
by
next
year.
Huawei
sold
30
million
phones
in
China
in
the
last
three
months
of
2018,
nearly
three
times
as
many
as
Apple
(AAPL),
according
to
data
published
this
week
by
research
firms
Canalys
and
IDC.Apple's
sales
plunged
almost
20%.
Huawei's
success
in
China,
the
world's
largest
smartphone
market,
is
more
than
about
geopolitics
(地缘政治).
Chinese
consumers
love
its
flagship,high?end
phones
because
they
have
great
cameras,
cutting
edge
technology
and
cost
less
than
the
latest
iPhones,
according
to
analysts.
And
by
offering
a
selection
of
cheaper
phones,
Huawei
is
able
to
target
a
bigger
market.
It
also
benefited
from
the
troubles
this
year
at
ZTE
(ZTCOF),
a
rival
Chinese
smartphone
and
telecommunications
equipment
maker.
ZTE
was
banned
by
the
US
government
from
buying
vital
American
parts
for
months
last
year.
本文是一篇说明文。文章分析了华为公司在手机市场日益缩小的中国仍然火爆的原因。
32.Why
did
Huawei's
China
sales
increase
greatly
according
to
the
article?
A.Because
the
company's
devices
are
always
popular
worldwide.
B.Because
Chinese
consumers'
patriotism
was
aroused.
C.Because
the
government
encourages
people
to
buy
Huawei
devices.
D.Because
the
country's
overall
market
for
smartphones
is
getting
bigger.
答案:B
解析:细节理解题。根据第二段内容“The
latest
tension
between
the
US
and
China
raised
the
patriotism
(爱国主义)
in
Chinese
consumers,”
可知中国消费者的爱国主义被唤起,华为在中国的销售量大增。故选B项。
33.What
can
we
conclude
from
the
third
paragraph?
A.Huawei's
chief
financial
officer
was
arrested
in
Canada
due
to
the
US's
request.
B.All
Chinese
companies
showed
their
support
to
Huawei
with
their
purchase.
C.Jusy
Hong
thought
the
United
States
arrested
Huawei's
chief
financial
officer.
D.Jusy
Hong
thought
the
arrest
of
Huawei's
chief
financial
officer
is
unfair.
答案:A
解析:细节理解题。根据第三段内容The
moves
were
a
gesture
of
support
after
the
firm's
chief
financial
officer
was
arrested
in
Canada
in
early
December
at
the
request
of
the
United
States.
可知华为的首席财务官因美国的要求在加拿大被捕。
故选A项。
34.How
do
you
understand
the
underlined
word
in
the
fifth
paragraph?
A.Increased
greatly
by.
B.Reduced
greatly
to.
C.Dropped
greatly
by.
D.Remained
steady.
答案:C
解析:词义猜测题。根据前文可知华为手机销量大增而苹果手机销量大跌,故推测此处“plunged”意为销量下降。故选C项。
35.Why
is
Huawei's
success
in
China
more
than
about
geopolitics?
A.Because
Huawei
has
the
largest
smartphone
market
in
the
world.
B.Because
Huawei's
success
is
only
limited
within
China
mainland.
C.Because
Huawei
has
the
ability
to
target
a
bigger
market
in
the
world.
D.Because
Chinese
consumers
are
quite
satisfied
with
Huawei
smartphones.
答案:D
解析:细节理解题。根据倒数第二段内容Chinese
consumers
love
its
flagship,
high?end
phones
because
they
have
great
cameras,
cutting
edge
technology
and
cost
less
than

可知中国消费者对华为的智能手机很满意。故选D项。
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。
Nowadays,
more
and
more
students
are
suffering
from
myopia
(近视),
or
near?sightedness.
It
is
always
advised
to
seek
a
doctor
to
fix
your
condition.
Here
are
a
few
tips
on
how
to
prevent
it.
1.Eat
green
leafy
vegetables.
Maybe
you're
not
a
fan
of
greens.
__36__
Green
leafy
vegetables,
just
like
carrots,
contain
lutein
(叶黄素),
which
is
important
to
your
eyes.
It
lowers
the
risk
of
light?caused
damage
and
provides
huge
health
benefits
to
your
body.
2.__37__
Your
eyes
and
facial
muscles
also
deserve
a
good
rest.
For
every
20
minutes
of
staring
at
a
screen
or
reading
something,
you
need
to
look
20
feet
away
from
you
for
a
period
of
20
seconds.
Exercise
should
also
be
practiced
on
those
of
your
eyes.
__38__
3.Drink
water.
What
water
can't
do?
It
keeps
your
mind
and
body
working
well.
__39__
According
to
experts,
the
most
common
eye
complaint
is
linked
to
dry
eye
and
its
symptoms.
4.Get
outside.
__40__
This
will
decrease
the
aching
in
the
muscles
around
eyes.
A
study
made
last
2014
suggests
that
the
risk
of
near?sightedness
in
children
reduces
about
2%
with
each
extra
hour
spent
outside
on
a
weekly
basis.
A.Create
a
daily
routine
for
yourself.
B.Rest
your
eyes
and
facial
muscles
regularly.
C.Drinking
a
lot
of
water
keeps
your
eyes
from
drying
out.
D.It
helps
your
eyes
in
adjusting
to
daylight
and
far
distances.
E.However,
research
shows
that
playing
video
games
helps
improve
a
good
eyesight.
F.But
start
to
be
one
if
you
want
to
protect
your
beautiful
eyes
and
make
it
last
a
lifetime.
G.Moving
your
eyes
from
top
to
bottom,
side
to
side
or
even
circling
it
around
is
enough
to
improve
your
eyesight.
本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了如何预防近视的几点建议。
36.F 解析:根据空后的“Green
leafy
vegetables,
just
like
carrots,
contain
lutein
(叶黄素),
which
is
important
to
your
eyes.”可知,绿叶蔬菜,比如胡萝卜,含有叶黄素,这对你的眼睛很重要,故F项(但如果你想保护你美丽的眼睛,那就开始做一个爱吃蔬菜并让这个爱好持续一生的人吧)符合语境。
37.B 解析:根据本段内容,特别是“Your
eyes
and
facial
muscles
also
deserve
a
good
rest.”可知,你的眼睛和面部肌肉也应该好好休息,故B项(定期让眼睛和面部肌肉得到休息)符合语境。
38.G 解析:根据空前的“Exercise
should
also
be
practiced
on
those
of
your
eyes.”可知,要活动你的眼睛,此处解释说明,故G项(从上到下,从一边到另一边,甚至转圈都足以提高你的视力)符合语境。
39.C 解析:根据空前的“What
water
can't
do?
It
keeps
your
mind
and
body
working
well.”可知,水能保持你的大脑和身体正常工作,此处承接上文,说的是水对眼睛的重要性,故C项(多喝水可以防止眼睛干燥)符合语境。
40.D 解析:根据本段小标题“Get
outside”可知,此处讲的是到户外去对眼睛的好处,故D项(它帮助你的眼睛适应日光和远距离)符合语境。

本文为一篇记叙文,讲述了“雪龙”号科考船在南极的科考经历。
56.with
解析:考查介词。句意:中国的“雪龙”号破冰船于当地时间周四离开中山站,返回中国,船上共有126名船员执行第35次南极考察任务。根据句意此处应为伴随的意思,with意为伴随。故填with。
57.its
解析:考查代词。修饰名词way用形容词性物主代词,on
one's
way
back为固定搭配,意为“在某人回来的路上”,又因主语为China's
research
icebreaker
Xuelong,故填its。
58.completing
解析:考查非谓语动词。句意:中国首架极地飞行固定翼飞机“雪鹰601”周四晚也在完成所有任务后离开南极。介词after后加动名词作介词的宾语。故填completing。
59.which
解析:考查非限制性定语从句。句意:“雪龙”号于2月9日抵达中山站附近,为该站提供燃油。分析句子结构可知,空处引导的非限制性定语从句修饰Xuelong,又因从句缺少主语,故填which。
60.members
解析:考查名词的复数。句意:随后又在昆仑、泰山和中山站接回了夏季考察队队员,以及固定翼飞机项目的队员。队员肯定不止一个。故填members。
61.previously
解析:考查副词。句意:昆仑探险队的16名队员先前在南极最高冰盖穹顶阿古斯(穹顶A)完成了所有科学考察。修饰动词
completed应使用副词形式,
previous的副词形式为previously。故填previously。
62.returned
解析:考查一般过去时。句意:他们和21名泰山队队员于2月8日返回中山站。文章的基本时态为一般过去时,return的一般过去式为returned。故填returned。
63.observation
解析:考查名词。句意:中山队完成了激光雷达的安装和试验、冰床岩石的钻探、大气探测观测、鸟类调查和固定翼飞机进行的空中探测等任务。由此处为四个并列的名词短语知应使用observe的名词形式,observe的名词形式为observation。故填observation。
64.known
解析:考查过去分词。句意:也被称为“雪龙”号的破冰船去年11月2日从上海启航。主语
the
icebreaker和动词know是被动关系用过去分词,known
as为固定搭配,意为“被称为”。故填known。
65.the
解析:考查定冠词。句意:开始了中国第35次南极考察。此处表特指。故填the。

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。
Sam
Watts
was
a
37?year?old
fisherman
living
and
working
in
Canada.
One
day,
Sam
planned
to
head
out
into
the
Pacific
at
9
am
and
work
straight
through
until
5
pm
the
next
day.
Joining
Sam
would
be
his
crewman
(船员),
24
year?old
Tom
Buck.
Although
Sam
had
been
warned
that
a
storm
was
coming,
there
was
little
that
would
keep
him
from
going.
As
he
sailed
through
the
waves
about
120
kilometers
from
land,
Sam
let
out
his
three?kilometer?long
fishing
line.
The
storm
was
gaining
strength
on
land
but
had
yet
to
reach
the
men
far
offshore
(离岸的).
That
changed
around
1
am.
Waves
rocked
the
small
boat,
which
began
to
turn
sideways
like
an
amusement
park
ride.
“Get
us
out
of
here!”
Tom
screamed
to
Sam.
“Let's
go
back!”
With
the
winds
and
waves
kicking
up,
the
boat
began
to
fill
with
water.
Sam
and
Tom
tried
to
pull
in
the
fishing
line
together,
but
the
high
waves
filled
the
boat
with
water,
forcing
Sam
to
make
a
hard
decision.
He
cut
the
line,
losing
thousands
of
dollars
worth
of
equipment
and
fish
in
the
sea.
He
then
pointed
the
boat
toward
a
port
five
hours
away.
Sam
then
called
his
boss,
William
Fox,
to
report
his
position.
With
dawn
coming,
Sam
spotted
the
rise
of
the
mountains
on
the
horizon
(地平线).
He
was
figuring
out
a
route
through
the
dangerous
waters
when
suddenly
the
motor
stopped.
“I
couldn't
believe
it,”
Sam
said.
“We
were
24
kilometers
off
the
coast,
and
the
motor
died.”
High
waves
raised
and
dropped
the
boat,
sending
the
men
crashing
into
the
sides.
“William,
William!”
Sam
yelled
into
the
radio.
“If
you're
coming
to
get
me,
come
now!”
“We're
coming!”
William
shouted
back.
答案
Paragraph
1:
Shortly
after,
the
radio
died
and
the
wind
continued
to
blow
straight
offshore,
driving
the
men
farther
out
to
sea.Fear
seized
Tom
and
he
was
trembling,
for
the
water
had
not
only
wetted
his
clothes
but
also
ruined
his
hope
of
surviving.
Sam
murmured,
“I
was
warned
that
a
storm
was
coming.
Had
it
not
been
for
my
stubbornness,
we
would
not
have
lost
our
equipment
and
had
to
face
such
a
terrible
situation.”
His
voice
gradually
disappeared
as
waves
rocked
the
boat,
making
terrifying
sounds.
After
what
seemed
to
be
a
century,
a
great
darkness
fell.
Exhausted,
they
fell
asleep.
Paragraph
2:
The
next
morning,
Sam
spotted
a
fishing
boat
in
the
distance.He
excitedly
woke
Tom
up.
Tom
rubbed
his
eyes
and
stared.
Once
he
caught
sight
of
the
boat,
he
was
also
lit
up.
The
chance
of
surviving
made
them
regain
strength
and
they
began
to
shout
loudly.
The
boat
saw
them
and
they
went
aboard.
On
the
boat
they
met
William
and
other
crew
members.
Although
they
had
lost
thousands
of
dollars,
they
came
to
understand
the
value
of
hope.
