B
My
husband,my
four?month?old
daughter
and
I
set
out
on
a
five?day
driving
journey
from
California
to
Washington.We
had
to
stop
frequently
because
our
little
child
needed
to
stretch
from
the
car
seat.
One
of
our
stops,once
we
crossed
the
Oregon
border,was
at
a
Black
Bear
Diner.Walking
towards
the
front
door
we
noticed
a
gentleman
standing
at
one
side.He
was
clearly
untidy,without
shoes
and
wearing
worn
clothing.We
passed
right
by
him
and
opened
the
restaurant
door.Then
something
told
me
to
go
back.
Holding
my
daughter,I
turned
around
and
said
to
the
gentleman,“Sir.Are
you
hungry?”He
said,“Yes.”I
then
asked,“May
we
buy
you
something
to
eat?”He
responded
with,“Sure,I
can
order
something
myself.”
My
husband
opened
the
door
and
the
gentleman
went
straight
to
the
counter.I
told
him
to
order
whatever
he
wanted.The
manager
of
the
restaurant
came
over
quite
quickly
and
looked
frightened.I
spoke
before
he
had
an
opportunity
to
say
anything.“This
gentleman
will
have
lunch
with
us
today,”I
said.“Please
add
his
order
to
our
bill.”The
manager
said
with
a
frown(皱眉),“Okay.”We
turned
to
our
table
and
the
gentleman
said,loudly
and
quickly,“Thank
you!”We
were
seated
and
upon
completing
our
meal
we
were
handed
our
bill.I
asked
my
husband
what
the
gentleman
had
ordered.One
fresh
orange
juice,one
coffee,one
breakfast
combination
with
a
side
of
hash
browns.
When
we
left
the
restaurant
I
looked
for
the
gentleman
but
didn't
see
him,but
that
very
small
act
just
made
my
day.I
hope
in
some
small
way
we
were
able
to
add
some
joy
to
his
life,even
if
only
for
a
few
minutes.

C
Distance
runners
often
worry
about“hitting
the
wall”during
training
or
races—that
terrible
moment
when
negative
thoughts
become
so
overpowering
that
they
make
it
difficult
to
continue.
Hitting
the
wall
typically
happens
around
20
miles
in
a
marathon,when
the
body's
supplies
become
exhausted.At
this
point,many
runners
feel
exhausted
and
discouraged,slow
their
pace,have
trouble
focusing
and
want
to
quit
or
walk.
“Generalized
tiredness,unintentionally
slowing
their
pace,the
desire
to
walk,and
shifting
focus
to
just
surviving
the
marathon
appear
to
be
particularly
common
characteristics
of
it,”said
Dr.Alistair
McCormick,an
exercise
psychologist
in
England
who
co?authored
a
new
study.“A
marathon
becomes
a
real
mental
battle
when
runners‘hit
the
wall’.”
Psychological
blocks
are
an
extremely
common
experience
for
recreational
endurance(耐力)athletes,according
to
the
study.To
learn
how
they
affect
people,sports
psychologists
asked
30
recreational
runners
and
cyclers
about
the
psychological
demands
of
training,preparing
for
and
participating
in
competitions.
“Recreational
runners
and
cyclists
found
it
stressful
trying
to
find
the
time
to
train,”McCormick
said.“What
was
also
interesting
was
the
number
of
potential
banana
skins
they
met
with
before
and
during
competition?disasters
that
could
cause
the
athletes
to
lose
their
focus
and
their
motivation
to
keep
persevering.”
These
roadblocks
included
difficult
environmental
conditions
and
equipment
failure,problems
with
nutrition
or
making
a
mistake,the
study
reported.The
athletes
in
the
study
said
they
felt
these
obstacles(障碍)affected
their
motivation
and
concentration,negatively
affecting
their
overall
performances.
According
to
the
study,43
percent
of
marathoners
are
likely
to
hit
the
wall
during
a
race.Finding
ways
to
move
past
those
kinds
of
experiences,then,could
have
major
benefits
for
an
athlete's
performance
and
well?being.
8.What
will
probably
happen
to
athletes
when“hitting
the
wall”occurs?
A.Their
heads
will
hurt
badly.
B.They
will
fail
to
concentrate.
C.They
will
slow
down
on
purpose.
D.They
will
have
difficulty
breathing.
9.What
does
the
underlined
phrase“banana
skins”refer
to
in
Paragraph
5?
A.Troubles.
B.Rubbish.
C.Competitors.
D.Pressure.
10.How
did
sports
psychologists
learn
about
psychological
blocks?
A.By
carrying
out
many
experiments.
B.By
experiencing“hitting
the
wall”in
person.
C.By
observing
the
performance
of
the
athletes.
D.By
listening
to
athletes'experiences
and
ideas.
11.What
will
probably
be
talked
about
in
the
following

move
past
other

B.Major
benefits
of
athletes'
good
performance.

psychological
blocks
on

A
recent
study
led
by
researchers
from
the
National
University
of
Singapore(NUS)has
found
a
clear
link
between
the
color
of
a
taxi
and
its
accident
rate.An
analysis
of
36
months
of
detailed
taxi,driver
and
accident
data
from
two
fleets
of
yellow
and
blue
taxis
in
Singapore
suggested
that
yellow
taxis
have
fewer
accidents
than
blue
taxis.The
higher
visibility(能见度)of
yellow
makes
it
easier
for
drivers
to
avoid
getting
into
accidents
with
yellow
taxis,leading
to
a
lower
accident
rate.
The
study
was
led
by
Prof
Ho.To
test
whether
there
was
a
causal
relationship
between
the
color
of
a
taxi
and
the
number
of
accidents
the
taxi
had,the
research
team
analysed
data
collected
by
the
largest
taxi
company
in
Singapore.The
researchers
found
that
yellow
taxis
have
about
6.1
fewer
accidents
per
1,000
taxis
per
month.
The
researchers
also
studied
the
economic
effect
of
changing
the
color
of
the
entire
fleet
of
taxis
to
yellow.The
Singapore
taxi
company
involved
in
the
study
owns
about
16,700
taxis
in
a
ratio(比例)of
one
yellow
to
three
blue
taxis.If
a
commercial
decision
is
made
to
switch
from
blue
to
yellow
taxis,76.6
fewer
accidents
would
occur
per
month
or
917
fewer
accidents
per
year.Assuming
an
average
repair
cost
of
$1,000
per
car
and
a
downtime
of
six
days,switching
the
color
of
all
taxis
to
yellow
could
produce
an
annual
savings
of
$2
million.
“We
are
eager
to
continue
to
confirm
the
findings
of
our
study
by
looking
at
the
use
of
yellow
in
other
types
of
public
transport,such
as
school
buses.For
instance,we
hope
to
compare
the
accident
rates
of
yellow
school
buses
against
other
colors
to
find
out
if
yellow
is
indeed
a
safer
color
for
school
buses.Besides,we
are
also
interested
to
look
at
private?hire
vehicles
and
do
a
comparison
of
the
accident
rates
of
vehicles
that
are
of
different
colors,”explained
Prof
Ho.
12.Why
do
yellow
taxis
result
in
fewer
accidents?
A.Because
yellow
can
be
seen
more
easily.
B.Because
yellow
signals
a
warning
of
danger.
C.Because
drivers
tend
to
be
more
careful
in
yellow
taxis.
D.Because
people
act
more
quickly
in
yellow
surroundings.
13.What's
Prof
Ho's
study
based
on?
A.Physical
risks
taxi
passengers
experience.
B.The
economic
effect
of
changing
taxi
color.
C.Data
from
Singapore's
largest
taxi
company.
D.Personal
reports
from
taxi
drivers
worldwide.
14.What
do
Prof
Ho's
words
in
the
last
paragraph
suggest?
A.School
buses
should
be
painted
yellow.
B.Their
findings
are
worth
popularizing.
C.Yellow
should
be
widely
used
in
public
transport.
D.Their
study
will
be
furthered.
15.What
can
be
the
best
title
for
the
text?
A.Caution:Yellow
Taxis
Ahead
B.Safer
to
Ride
in
Yellow
Taxis
C.Why
Are
Yellow
Taxis
Preferred?
D.How
Can
Colors
Help
Prevent
Accidents?

While
it
may
seem
like
everyone
surfs
the
web
these
days,there
is
fine
line
between
casually
checking

and
having
a

Internet
addiction.If
you
fear
that
you

If
you
are
free
on
weekends,call
friends
and
ask
them

limit
such
as
30
minutes.Set
the
clock
or
timer
and
make
sure
that
you
get
off
the

D.Luckily,there
are
ways
to
avoid
living
your

Ⅵ.概要写作(满分25分)
阅读下面短文,根据其内容写一篇60词左右的内容概要。
Babies
who
are
slow
to
gain
weight
in
the
first
months
of
their
lives
generally
catch
up
with
their
peers(同龄人)by
age
13,a
large
UK
study
shows.
The
researchers
looked
at
data
from
11,499
children
who
took
part
in
a
large
study
in
Bristol
in
the
1990s.It
showed
that
507
who
were
slow
to
gain
weight
in
the
first
eight
weeks
of
life
recovered
fairly
quickly
and
had
almost
caught
up
by
age
2.Another
group
of
480
who
were
slow
to
gain
weight
between
eight
weeks
and
nine
months
continued
to
put
on
weight
slowly
until
they
were
seven
years
old,but
then
had
a
sudden
increase
and
caught
up
by
age
13.
Researchers
said
the
results
would
make
parents
whose
babies
fail
to
put
on
weight
quickly
less
worried.The
different
patterns
of
recovery
between
the
two
groups
were
likely
due
to
different
reasons
for
slow
weight
gain.All
the
children
were
still
lighter
and
shorter
than
their
peers
by
the
time
they
were
teenagers,but
within
the
normal
range.
The
findings
show
the
importance
of
monitoring
a
baby's
weight
and
height
gain
during
the
first
few
weeks
and
months,but
not
creating
anxiety
with
parents
of
slow?growing
babies,said
the
study
leader
Prof.Alan
Emond
from
the
University
of
Bristol.“In
the
past,a
lot
of
parents
have
been
caused
unnecessary
anxiety
by
health
professionals
and
this
is
a
positive
message.”He
said
in
many
cases
of
slow
growth
where
children
do
not
follow
the
standard“curve(曲线)”,it
is
just
because
they
are
following
their
genetic(基因的)potential.
Dr
Simon
Newell,vice?president
for
training
and
assessment
at
the
Royal
College
of
Paediatrics
and
Child
Health,said
he
broadly
agreed
with
the
conclusions
of
the
researchers
but
stressed
that
poor
weight
gain
was
something
that
needed
to
be
monitored
closely.“I
would
encourage
parents
to
use
growth
charts
but
if
measurements
show
your
baby
is
smaller
than
average
it
may
be
completely
normal,”he
said.

My
husband,my
four?month?old
daughter
and
I
set
out
on
a
five?day
driving
journey
from
California
to
Washington.We
had
to
stop
frequently
because
our
little
child
needed
to
stretch
from
the
car
seat.
One
of
our
stops,once
we
crossed
the
Oregon
border,was
at
a
Black
Bear
Diner.Walking
towards
the
front
door
we
noticed
a
gentleman
standing
at
one
side.He
was
clearly
untidy,without
shoes
and
wearing
worn
clothing.We
passed
right
by
him
and
opened
the
restaurant
door.Then
something
told
me
to
go
back.
Holding
my
daughter,I
turned
around
and
said
to
the
gentleman,“Sir.Are
you
hungry?”He
said,“Yes.”I
then
asked,“May
we
buy
you
something
to
eat?”He
responded
with,“Sure,I
can
order
something
myself.”
My
husband
opened
the
door
and
the
gentleman
went
straight
to
the
counter.I
told
him
to
order
whatever
he
wanted.The
manager
of
the
restaurant
came
over
quite
quickly
and
looked
frightened.I
spoke
before
he
had
an
opportunity
to
say
anything.“This
gentleman
will
have
lunch
with
us
today,”I
said.“Please
add
his
order
to
our
bill.”The
manager
said
with
a
frown(皱眉),“Okay.”We
turned
to
our
table
and
the
gentleman
said,loudly
and
quickly,“Thank
you!”We
were
seated
and
upon
completing
our
meal
we
were
handed
our
bill.I
asked
my
husband
what
the
gentleman
had
ordered.One
fresh
orange
juice,one
coffee,one
breakfast
combination
with
a
side
of
hash
browns.
When
we
left
the
restaurant
I
looked
for
the
gentleman
but
didn't
see
him,but
that
very
small
act
just
made
my
day.I
hope
in
some
small
way
we
were
able
to
add
some
joy
to
his
life,even
if
only
for
a
few
minutes.

C
Distance
runners
often
worry
about“hitting
the
wall”during
training
or
races—that
terrible
moment
when
negative
thoughts
become
so
overpowering
that
they
make
it
difficult
to
continue.
Hitting
the
wall
typically
happens
around
20
miles
in
a
marathon,when
the
body's
supplies
become
exhausted.At
this
point,many
runners
feel
exhausted
and
discouraged,slow
their
pace,have
trouble
focusing
and
want
to
quit
or
walk.
“Generalized
tiredness,unintentionally
slowing
their
pace,the
desire
to
walk,and
shifting
focus
to
just
surviving
the
marathon
appear
to
be
particularly
common
characteristics
of
it,”said
Dr.Alistair
McCormick,an
exercise
psychologist
in
England
who
co?authored
a
new
study.“A
marathon
becomes
a
real
mental
battle
when
runners‘hit
the
wall’.”
Psychological
blocks
are
an
extremely
common
experience
for
recreational
endurance(耐力)athletes,according
to
the
study.To
learn
how
they
affect
people,sports
psychologists
asked
30
recreational
runners
and
cyclers
about
the
psychological
demands
of
training,preparing
for
and
participating
in
competitions.
“Recreational
runners
and
cyclists
found
it
stressful
trying
to
find
the
time
to
train,”McCormick
said.“What
was
also
interesting
was
the
number
of
potential
banana
skins
they
met
with
before
and
during
competition?disasters
that
could
cause
the
athletes
to
lose
their
focus
and
their
motivation
to
keep
persevering.”
These
roadblocks
included
difficult
environmental
conditions
and
equipment
failure,problems
with
nutrition
or
making
a
mistake,the
study
reported.The
athletes
in
the
study
said
they
felt
these
obstacles(障碍)affected
their
motivation
and
concentration,negatively
affecting
their
overall
performances.
According
to
the
study,43
percent
of
marathoners
are
likely
to
hit
the
wall
during
a
race.Finding
ways
to
move
past
those
kinds
of
experiences,then,could
have
major
benefits
for
an
athlete's
performance
and
well?being.
【语篇解读】 本文主要讲了运动心理学家通过倾听运动员的体验和想法,对心理障碍进行研究,描述了马拉松中的“撞墙期”。
8.What
will
probably
happen
to

when“hitting
the
wall”occurs?
A.Their
heads
will
hurt
badly.
B.They
will
fail
to
concentrate.
C.They
will
slow
down
on
purpose.
D.They
will
have
difficulty
breathing.

this
point,many
runners
feel
exhausted
and
discouraged,slow
their
pace,have
trouble
focusing
and
want
to
quit

A
recent
study
led
by
researchers
from
the
National
University
of
Singapore(NUS)has
found
a
clear
link
between
the
color
of
a
taxi
and
its
accident
rate.An
analysis
of
36
months
of
detailed
taxi,driver
and
accident
data
from
two
fleets
of
yellow
and
blue
taxis
in
Singapore
suggested
that
yellow
taxis
have
fewer
accidents
than
blue
taxis.The
higher
visibility(能见度)of
yellow
makes
it
easier
for
drivers
to
avoid
getting
into
accidents
with
yellow
taxis,leading
to
a
lower
accident
rate.
The
study
was
led
by
Prof
Ho.To
test
whether
there
was
a
causal
relationship
between
the
color
of
a
taxi
and
the
number
of
accidents
the
taxi
had,the
research
team
analysed
data
collected
by
the
largest
taxi
company
in
Singapore.The
researchers
found
that
yellow
taxis
have
about
6.1
fewer
accidents
per
1,000
taxis
per
month.
The
researchers
also
studied
the
economic
effect
of
changing
the
color
of
the
entire
fleet
of
taxis
to
yellow.The
Singapore
taxi
company
involved
in
the
study
owns
about
16,700
taxis
in
a
ratio(比例)of
one
yellow
to
three
blue
taxis.If
a
commercial
decision
is
made
to
switch
from
blue
to
yellow
taxis,76.6
fewer
accidents
would
occur
per
month
or
917
fewer
accidents
per
year.Assuming
an
average
repair
cost
of
$1,000
per
car
and
a
downtime
of
six
days,switching
the
color
of
all
taxis
to
yellow
could
produce
an
annual
savings
of
$2
million.
“We
are
eager
to
continue
to
confirm
the
findings
of
our
study
by
looking
at
the
use
of
yellow
in
other
types
of
public
transport,such
as
school
buses.For
instance,we
hope
to
compare
the
accident
rates
of
yellow
school
buses
against
other
colors
to
find
out
if
yellow
is
indeed
a
safer
color
for
school
buses.Besides,we
are
also
interested
to
look
at
private?hire
vehicles
and
do
a
comparison
of
the
accident
rates
of
vehicles
that
are
of
different
colors,”explained
Prof
Ho.
【语篇解读】 研究表明,黄色的出租车比蓝色的出租车发生事故的几率更低,所以乘坐黄色的出租车会更安全。
12.Why
do
yellow
taxis
result
in
fewer
accidents?
A.Because
yellow
can
be
seen
more
easily.
B.Because
yellow
signals
a
warning
of
danger.
C.Because
drivers
tend
to
be
more
careful
in
yellow
taxis.
D.Because
people
act
more
quickly
in
yellow
surroundings.
A [细节理解题。由第一段最后一句“The
higher
visibility(能见度)of
yellow
makes
it
easier
for
drivers
to
avoid
getting
into
accidents
with
yellow
taxis,leading
to
a
lower
accident
rate.”可知,黄色出租车会减少交通事故是因为黄色更容易被看到,所以选A。]
13.What's
Prof
Ho's
study
based
on?
A.Physical
risks
taxi
passengers
experience.
B.The
economic
effect
of
changing
taxi
color.
C.Data
from
Singapore's
largest
taxi
company.
D.Personal
reports
from
taxi
drivers
worldwide.
C [细节理解题。由第二段中的“the
research
team
analysed
data
collected
by
the
largest
taxi
company
in
Singapore”可知,Prof
Ho的研究是基于新加坡最大的出租车公司的数据,故选C。]
14.What
do
Prof
Ho's
words
in
the
last
paragraph
suggest?
A.School
buses
should
be
painted
yellow.
B.Their
findings
are
worth
popularizing.

Ⅱ.阅读七选五(共5小题;每小题2.5分,满分12.5分)
While
it
may
seem
like
everyone
surfs
the
web
these
days,there
is
fine
line
between
casually
checking
your
social
media
pages
and
having
a
full
blown
Internet
addiction.If
you
fear
that
you
may
lose
interest
in
other
aspects
of
your
life
because
you
prefer
to
be
on
the
Internet,you
may
be
on
your
way
to
an
Internet
addiction.__16__
Admit
you
are
at
risk
of
an
addiction.
More
and
more
people
in
the
world
are
becoming
addicted
to
the
Internet.You
are
not
the
only
one
with
this
problem;it
is
becoming
more
and
more
common
and
more
and
more
well
known.__17__
Set
aside
limited
time
for
computer
use.
Make
sure
not
to
turn
it
on
too
many
times
a
week.If
you
have
a
laptop,make
sure
to
put
it
somewhere
that
you
can
remember
but
not
somewhere
that
you
see
every
day.Try
keeping
the
lid
closed
when
you
are
not
using
it.__18__If
you
have
a
desktop
PC,try
not
to
go
near
it
or
put
something
over
it
like
a
sheet.
Call
people
instead
of
sending
instant
messages
or
texts.
If
you
are
free
on
weekends,call
friends
and
ask
them
to
go
outside.This
will
distract
you
from
the
computer.__19__
Use
an
alarm
clock
or
a
timer.
Before
using
your
computer,decide
on
a
time
limit
such
as
30
minutes.Set
the
clock
or
timer
and
make
sure
that
you
get
off
the
computer
when
the
time
is
up.Alternatively
create
a
shutdown
timer
on
your
desktop.__20__
A.Make
a
small
list
of
what
you
want
to
do
within
that
time.
B.When
the
computer
is
not
looking
at
you,you
are
less
likely
to
use
it.
C.This
can
be
programmed
to
shut
down
your
computer
after
the
set
time.
D.Luckily,there
are
ways
to
avoid
living
your
life
in
front
of
the
computer.
E.This
will
stop
you
from
using
the

so
often
or

F.If
you
have
a
problem
on
weekdays,phone
your
friends

ask
for

G.Do
not
be
embarrassed;find
others
with
the
same
problem
and
help

beat
it.
【语篇解读】 本文介绍了如何避免网络成瘾。
16.D [根据上句中的“you
may
be
on
your
way
to
an
Internet
addiction(你可能即将沉溺于网络)”及后文给出的避免沉迷于网络的方法可知D项(很幸运,有很多办法可以避免你在电脑前度过你的生活)符合语境。故选D项。]
17.G [根据上句:你不是唯一有这种烦恼的人,这种情况越来越常见。可知此处要表达的意思是:找到有相同问题的人,互相帮助,共同击败它。故选G项。]
18.B [根据上句:当你不用电脑时,试着把它关上。也就是说:电脑关着,你就会减少使用它。可知B项符合题意。]
19.F [根据上句:如果你周末有空,邀请你的朋友到外面去。这样你的心思就会从电脑上移开。故F项(如果你在工作日有麻烦,给你朋友打电话或亲自去求助)符合题意。]
20.C [根据上句:或者在你的桌面上创建一个关机定时器。shutdown
timer是关键词。可知下句应该在讲shutdown
timer的好处。故选C项。]

Ⅵ.概要写作(满分25分)
阅读下面短文,根据其内容写一篇60词左右的内容概要。
Babies
who
are
slow
to
gain
weight
in
the
first
months
of
their
lives
generally
catch
up
with
their
peers(同龄人)by
age
13,a
large
UK
study
shows.
The
researchers
looked
at
data
from
11,499
children
who
took
part
in
a
large
study
in
Bristol
in
the
1990s.It
showed
that
507
who
were
slow
to
gain
weight
in
the
first
eight
weeks
of
life
recovered
fairly
quickly
and
had
almost
caught
up
by
age
2.Another
group
of
480
who
were
slow
to
gain
weight
between
eight
weeks
and
nine
months
continued
to
put
on
weight
slowly
until
they
were
seven
years
old,but
then
had
a
sudden
increase
and
caught
up
by
age
13.
Researchers
said
the
results
would
make
parents
whose
babies
fail
to
put
on
weight
quickly
less
worried.The
different
patterns
of
recovery
between
the
two
groups
were
likely
due
to
different
reasons
for
slow
weight
gain.All
the
children
were
still
lighter
and
shorter
than
their
peers
by
the
time
they
were
teenagers,but
within
the
normal
range.
The
findings
show
the
importance
of
monitoring
a
baby's
weight
and
height
gain
during
the
first
few
weeks
and
months,but
not
creating
anxiety
with
parents
of
slow?growing
babies,said
the
study
leader
Prof.Alan
Emond
from
the
University
of
Bristol.“In
the
past,a
lot
of
parents
have
been
caused
unnecessary
anxiety
by
health
professionals
and
this
is
a
positive
message.”He
said
in
many
cases
of
slow
growth
where
children
do
not
follow
the
standard“curve(曲线)”,it
is
just
because
they
are
following
their
genetic(基因的)potential.
Dr
Simon
Newell,vice?president
for
training
and
assessment
at
the
Royal
College
of
Paediatrics
and
Child
Health,said
he
broadly
agreed
with
the
conclusions
of
the
researchers
but
stressed
that
poor
weight
gain
was
something
that
needed
to
be
monitored
closely.“I
would
encourage
parents
to
use
growth
charts
but
if
measurements
show
your
baby
is
smaller
than
average
it
may
be
completely
normal,”he
said.

[参考范文]
According
to
a
study,babies
gaining
weight
slowly
during
their
first
weeks
or
months
after
birth
can
reach
the
same
weight
level
as
their
peers
by
13.Therefore,parents
with
slow?growing
babies
needn't
be
overanxious
about
that.Babies'
slow
growth
is
probably
influenced
by
their
genetic
potential.However,parents
are
encouraged
to
keep
track
of
their
babies'
weight
by
means
of
growth
charts
to
ensure
their
normal
growth.
