Ⅳ.阅读理解
Born
on
August
9,1963,
New
Jersey,
Whitney
Houston
almost
seemed
bound
to
become
a
singer.
Her
mother
Cissy
Houston
was
the
choir
(唱诗班)
minister
at
New
Hope
Baptist
Church,
and
it
was
there
that
the
young
Whitney
got
her
start.
When
she
was
19,
Whitney
Houston
was
discovered
in
a
nightclub
by
the
famous
Clive
Davis
of
Arista
Records.
In
1983,
Houston
made
her
debut
(首演)
on
national
television.
In
1985,
she
released
her
debut
album
Whitney
Houston
and
almost
immediately
became
a
sensation.
Over
the
next
year,
her
hit
singles
Saving
All
My
Love
for
You
and
How
Will
I
Know
helped
the
album
reach
the
top
of
the
charts,
where
it
stayed
for
fourteen
weeks
in
a
row.
Houston
won
a
Grammy
in
1986
for
Saving
All
My
Love
for
You.
By
1992,
Whitney
Houston
was
on
top
of
the
world,
but
her
life
was
about
to
get
very
complicated
very
quickly.
That
year
she
married
the
R&B
singer
Bobby
Brown.
At
first
the
marriage
was
passionate
and
loving,
but
things
turned
sour
as
the
decade
progressed
and
both
Brown
and
Houston
battled
drug
abuse.
In
spite
of
these
growing
personal
troubles,
Whitney
Houston
continued
to
progress
in
her
career,
crossing
over
successfully
into
acting
in
1992
by
starring
in
The
Bodyguard.
Her
single
from
the
movie,
I
Will
Always
Love
You,
proved
to
be
Houston's
biggest
hit
ever,
spending
a
record?breaking
fourteen
weeks
on
top
of
the
US
charts.
In
the
late
1990s
and
early
2000s,
Whitney
Houston's
increasingly
rocky
marriage,
struggles
with
drugs
and
health
problems
threatened
her
career.
Over
the
next
few
years,
Houston
attempted
to
break
her
drug
habit
and
divorced
Bobby
Brown
in
2007.
After
almost
a
decade
of
struggling
with
her
personal
life,
Houston
seemed
to
be
pulling
herself
together.
She
released
a
new
album,
I
Look
to
You,
in
2009.
The
recording
received
a
warm
welcome
from
music
fans.
In
early
2012,
Houston
worked
on
a
new
musical
film
Sparkle
with
Jordin
Sparks.
Unfortunately,
Houston
didn't
live
long
enough
to
see
it.
Whitney
Houston
died
on
February
11,2012,
in
Los
Angeles.
With
her
passing,
the
music
world
has
lost
one
of
its
most
outstanding
stars.

解析：考查非谓语动词。句意：我们的研究试图对不同药物的疗效进行评估。attempt后接动词不定式，因此填to
evaluate。

look

tired!

have_been_painting
(paint)
the

解析：句意：——杰克，你看起来很累啊！——哦，我一直在刷房子，明天必须完成。根据语境可知，此处强调

这一动作一直持续到现在，并且还会持续到明天。现在完成进行时表示某一动作持续到现在并且还会持续下去。

Ⅰ.阅读理解
A
Matt
grows
the
best
vegetables
in
the
village.
He
grows
fruit
too—big,
sweet
apples
and
oranges.
And
what
else?
Well,
the
biggest
and
the
prettiest
flowers.
Things
grow
in
Matt's
garden
all
through
the
year.
He
cuts
some
flowers
for
his
sitting?room
table;
and
of
course,
he
eats
some
fruit
and
vegetables.
But
he
sells
everything
else
in
the
market.
Matt
is
not
a
poor
man.
He
knows
a
few
other
gardens,
but
he
does
not
have
any
friends.
You
might
ask,
“What
is
that?
Why
doesn't
he
have
friends？”
I
will
tell
you.
People
do
not
understand
him.
And
they
do
not
understand
his
garden.
“Why
not？”
you
will
ask.
“It's
a
very
good
garden,
isn't
it？”
It
is
a
wonderful
garden.
Matt
plants
things
in
spring,
summer,
autumn
and
winter.
After
that
he
does
very
little
work.
He
sits
in
the
garden
with
his
small
radio.
And
everything
grows.
People
ask,
“How
does
Matt
grow
these
wonderful
things?
He
waters
the
plants
sometimes,
but
he
doesn't
do
anything
else.
He
just
sits
under
an
orange
tree
with
his
radio.
He
listens
to
music
nearly
all
day！”
And
that
is
all
quite
true.
People
cannot
understand
it,
and
so
they
don't
like
it
very
much.
Matt
likes
music.
But
what
about
the
garden?
Who
does
the
work?
I
will
tell
you
another
true
thing:
the
music
does
the
work.
All
plants
love
music,
and
Matt
knows
that.
Do
you
want
big
vegetables
and
the
loveliest
flowers?
Well,
just
give
your
plants
a
lot
of
music.
本文是一篇记叙文。主要讲述了Matt几乎每天在花园里听音乐但植物仍长得很好，人们不理解原因，他们不知道正是音乐在其中起着重要作用。
1．Matt
makes
a
living
by
________.
A．selling
his
vegetables,
fruit
and
flowers
B．growing
trees
in
his
garden
C．working
in
the
market
D．helping
other
people
growing
plants
答案：A
解析：从文章第二段的最后两句可知答案。
2．Everything
in
Matt's
garden
grows
well
because
________.
A．he
has
a
good
garden
B．he
is
good
at
growing
things
and
likes
listening
to
the
radio
C．music
helps
his
plants
a
lot
D．he
is
very
hard?working
答案：C
解析：从文章倒数第二段“the
music
does
the
work”可知答案。
3．People
think
that
________.
A．Matt's
garden
is
better
than
theirs
B．Matt
works
harder
than
they
do
C．Matt
doesn't
know
how
to
grow
vegetables
well
D．the
radio
helps
Matt
to
grow
everything
well
in
his
garden
答案：A
解析：由文章第四段可知人们不能理解为何Matt的花园里种植的东西长得如此好，也不知道音乐在其中起一定的作用，只知道一个客观事实：Matt的花园里的植物长得很好。
B
There
was
a
gardener
who
looked
after
his
garden
with
great
care.
To
water
his
flowers,
he
used
two
buckets
(水桶).
One
was
a
shiny
and
new
bucket.
The
other
was
a
very
old
and
dilapidated
one,
which
had
seen
many
years
of
service,
but
was
now
past
its
best.
Every
morning,
the
gardener
would
fill
up
the
two
buckets.
Then
he
would
carry
them
along
the
path,
one
on
each
side,
to
the
flowerbeds.
The
new
bucket
was
very
proud
of
itself.
It
could
carry
a
full
bucket
of
water
without
a
single
drop
spilled.
The
old
bucket
felt
very
ashamed
(惭愧的)
because
of
its
holes:
before
it
reached
the
flowerbeds,
much
water
had
leaked
(渗漏)
along
the
path.
Sometimes
the
new
bucket
would
say,
“See
how
capable
I
am!
How
good
it
is
that
the
gardener
has
me
water
the
flowers
every
day!
I
don't
know
why
he
still
uses
you.
What
a
waste
of
space
you
are！”
And
all
that
the
old
bucket
could
say
was,
“I
know
I
am
not
very
useful,
but
I
can
only
do
my
best.
I
am
happy
that
the
gardener
still
finds
a
little
bit
of
use
in
me,
at
least.”
One
day,
the
gardener
heard
that
kind
of
conversation.
After
watering
the
flowers
as
usual,
he
said,
“You
both
have
done
your
work
very
well.
Now
I
am
going
to
carry
you
back,
and
I
want
you
to
look
carefully
along
the
path.”
Then
the
two
buckets
did
so.
All
along
the
path,
they
noticed,
on
the
side
where
the
new
bucket
was
carried,
there
was
just
bare
earth;
on
the
other
side
where
the
old
bucket
was
carried,
there
was
a
joyous
row
of
wild
flowers,
leading
all
the
way
to
the
garden.
文章通过讲述一个园艺工人一直在使用一只破桶来浇花来告诉我们：任何一样事物的存在都有它自己的价值。
4．What
was
the
old
bucket
ashamed
of?
A．Its
past.
B．Its
aging.
C．Its
manner.
D．Its
leaking.
答案：D
解析：细节理解题。根据第二段最后一句话中的“felt
very
ashamed
(惭愧的)
because
of
its
holes...much
water
had
leaked
(渗漏)”可知，旧桶对自己漏水感到很羞愧。
5．What
does
the
underlined
word
“dilapidated”
probably
mean?
A．Dirty.
B．Dark.
C．Worn
out.
D．Ordinary?looking.
答案：C
解析：词义猜测题。根据本句中的“The
other
was
a
very
old
and
dilapidated
one”可知，该词是指这只桶已经破旧不堪了。故C项worn
out与画线词意思相近。
6．The
new
bucket
made
conversations
with
the
old
one
mainly
to
________.
A．take
pity
on
the
old
one
B．laugh
at
the
old
one
C．show
off
its
good
looks
D．praise
the
gardener's
kindness
答案：B
解析：推理判断题。根据第三段中的“See
how
capable
I
am...
I
don't
know
why
he
still
uses
you.
What
a
waste
of
space
you
are！”可知，新桶在嘲笑旧桶。故选B。
7．Why
was
the
old
bucket
still
kept
by
the
gardener?
A．Because
it
was
used
to
keep
a
balance.
B．Because
it
stayed
in
its
best
condition.
C．Because
it
had
its
own
function.
D．Because
it
was
thought
of
as
a
treasure.
答案：C
解析：推理判断题。根据文章最后一段第二句话可知，这只旧桶也有作用和价值，浇灌了它那一边的野花，故它的存在仍然是有价值的。故选C。
Ⅱ.读后续写
阅读下面短文，根据所给情节进行续写，使之构成一个完整的故事。
Michelle
was
eight
years
old
when
she
heard
her
mom
and
dad
talking
about
her
little_brother，Jack,
now
only
an
infant
(婴儿).
He
was
very
sick
and
they
were
completely
out
of
money.
Only
a
very
costly
operation
could
save
the
baby
now
but
there
was
no
one
to
whom
they
could
turn
for
the
money
needed.
She
heard
Daddy
say
to
her
tearful
mom，“Only
a
miracle
can
save
him
now.”
At
the
words,
Michelle
went
to
her
bedroom
and
took
out
all
the
coins
from
her
little
moneybox.
After
counting
the
coins
three
times,
she
slipped
out
the
back
door
and
made
her
way
to
the_drug_store
six
blocks
away...
She
waited
for
a
long
time
before
the
pharmacist
(药剂师)
turned
around
and
asked
her，“And
what
do
you
want？”
“Well,
it's
about
my
brother，”Michelle
answered.
“He's
really,
really
sick...
and
I
want
to
buy
a
miracle.”
“I
beg
your
pardon？”said
the
pharmacist.“His
name
is
Jack
and
he
has
something
very
bad
growing
inside
his
body
and
my
daddy
said
only
a
miracle
can
save
him
now.
So
how
much
does
a
miracle
cost？”
“We
don't
sell
miracles
here,
little_girl.
I'm
sorry
but
I
can't
help
you，”
the
pharmacist
said.“Listen,
I
have
the
money
to
pay
for
it.”And
with
these
words,
Michelle
poured
out
all
the
coins
from
her
pockets.
At
this
time,
a
well?dressed_man
behind
Michelle
stooped
down
and
asked
the
little
girl，“I'm
selling
the
miracle
you
want.
Tell
me
how
much
money
you
have.”
“One_dollar_and_eleven_cents.”Michelle
answered
in
a
low_voice.“And
it's
all
the
money
I
have,
but
I
can
get
some
more.”
“Well，”smiled
the
man.“A
dollar
and
eleven
cents—the_exact_price
of
a
miracle
for
your
little
brother.
Show
me
the
place
where
your
brother
lives.”
注意：
1．所续写短文的词数应为150左右；

答案
Paragraph
1：
Holding
the
man's
hand
firmly,
Michelle
took
him
home.
She
walked
in
such
a
hurry
that
she
even
forgot
to
introduce
herself
to
the
man.
Her
parents
were
too
surprised
to
believe
their
eyes.
That
well?dressed_man
turned
out
to
be
a
surgeon,
specializing
in
neuro?surgery.
Later,
her
little_brother
was
taken
away.
The
operation
was
completed
with
payment
of
one_dollar_and_eleven_cents
and
it
wasn't
long
before
Jack
was
home
again
and
doing
well.
Michelle
was
very
happy.
Then
she
knew
the_exact_price
of
a
miracle—one
dollar
and
eleven
cents
plus
the
faith
of
a
little
child.
Paragraph
2：
When
asked
why
he
chose
to
help
the
family,
the
man
detailed.“When
I
was
young,
I
was
once
in
the
same
situation
as
the
little
baby.
The
little_girl
reminded
me
of
my
sister.
It
was
she
who
saved
my
life.
Deeply
impressed
by
her
innocence,
I
finally
decided
to
help
the
family
out
of
trouble.
It
doesn't
matter
how
much
money
she
actually
had
with
her;
what
matters
is
her
faith,
a
faith
that
the
miracle
does
exist.”Module

Ⅰ.完形填空
Everyone
has
his
idol,
so
do
I.
I
admire
my
father.
He
was
a
highly
educated,
intelligent
gentleman.
He
could
debate
or
discuss
for
hours
on
almost
any
topic
and
hold
your
__1__
in
the
process.
I
thought
there
was
nothing
he
wasn't
__2__
to
do.
A
few
days
before
my
younger
brother's
seventh
birthday,
Dad
planned
to
assemble
(装配)
a
new
__3__
as
a
special
birthday
surprise.
After
nearly
an
hour
of
__4__
the
instructions,
Dad
was
still
unable
to
__5__
the
new
bicycle
together.
Later
he
__6__
the
paper
of
instructions,
__7__
up
his
toolbox,
and
decided
to
take
the
bicycle
back
to
the
local
toy
store
and
pay
extra
__8__
to
have
it
correctly
assembled
there.
__9__
an
idea
came
to
him,
so
he
called
out
to
Lovett,
the
quiet
little
man
who
cut
our
grassland.
“Lovett,
have
you
ever
assembled
a
boy's
bicycle？”
As
Lovett
walked
towards
the
bicycle,
Dad
handed
him
the
__10__.
Lovett
handed
it
back
to
him,
saying,
“No,
thanks.
I
can't
read.
When
you
can't
read,
you
have
to
__11__.”
Less
than
15
minutes
later,
the
new
bicycle
was
__12__
assembled,
with
no
__13__
parts
remaining.
Dad
shook
Lovett's
hand,
patted
him
on
the
back,
thanked
him,
and
hid
the
bicycle.
On
the
night
after
my
brother
received
his
shiny
new
gift,
Dad
announced
at
the
family
dinner
table
what
had
happened
several
days
earlier.
He
took
great
__14__
in
telling
it
over
and
over
again—he
used
it
as
an
example
of
thinking.
He
did
not
refer
to
illiteracy
(文盲),
but
strongly
taught
us
to
use
our
__15__.
The
joke
was
on
my
father,
__16__
he
was
able
to
turn
it
into
a
learning
tool,
and
I
liked
him
even
more
after
that
incident.
I
also
gained
a
new
__17__
for
Lovett.
To
me
he
had
__18__
been
the
old
yard
man
who
didn't
__19__
much,
but
after
that
day,
he
seemed
to

The
child
of
today
owes
much
of
its
pleasant
school
life
to
the
work
of
Maria
Montessori
and
others
who
felt
as
she
did.
Maria
Montessori
was
born
in
1870
in
northern
Italy.
Both
her
parents
were
well
educated.
While
Maria
was
a
student,
she
took
great
interest
in
the
study
of
the
particular
nature
of
the
child's
mind.
It
came
to
her
that
small
children
should
have
freedom
to
learn.
Maria
became
a
doctor
and
a
professor
at
Rome
University.
In
1907,
after
working
with
backward
students,
she
was
given
a
chance
to
try
out
her
ideas
on
children.
There
were
sixty
children,
aged
three
to
six,
in
the
Children's
House.
The
rooms
were
bright
and
colorful.
Maria
let
the
children
make
their
own
choice
of
what
they
wanted
to
do
and
work
with
their
own
speed.
They
became
busy,
peaceful
and
happy.
Maria
Montessori
was
one
of
the
world's
greatest
teachers.
She
traveled
in
Europe,
America
and
the
Far
East.
She
thought
that
true
education,
providing
(提供)
for
the
real
needs
of
the
child,
would
produce
wise
and
happy
grown?ups
and
therefore
a
peaceful
world.
Her
original
way
of
education
has
changed
our
whole
idea
of
what
childhood
is.
Maria
Montessori
died
in
Holland
at
the
age
of
eighty?two.

本文是一篇报道。文章讲述了中国到英国的货运列车的开通。
1．latest
解析：考查词形变化。这是中国努力重新发展“丝绸之路”的最新证据。latest最新的，最近的，最现代的。故这里填latest。
2．Having_travelled
解析：考查现在分词的完成式作状语。这列火车从中国途经哈萨克斯坦、俄罗斯、白俄罗斯、波兰、德国、比利时、法国行驶了18天后，最终到达了伦敦。travel的动作发生在arrive之前且和主语是主动关系，故用现在分词的完成式having
travelled。
3．were
解析：考查完全倒装和系动词。68个货柜里装的是日用商品、衣服、布料、包以及手提箱。根据句子结构可知，这里是完全倒装结构，缺少系动词，故填were。
4．twice
解析：考查倍数表达法。速度是海上运输的两倍，比空运更干净，更便宜。这里用twice表示“两倍”。
5．who
解析：考查非限制性定语从句的关系词。Philippa
Edmunds说：“速度是海上运输的两倍快，比空运更清洁，更便宜。”他在British
Campaign
for
Better
Transport工作。故这里用who指代Philippa
Edmunds，在非限制性定语从句中作主语。
6．it
解析：考查代词。火车本身可能比它运载的货物更加重要。这里用it指代the
train。
7．to_sell
解析：考查不定式。中国需要寻找更多的地方来销售它制造的货物。这里用不定式表示目的，故填to
sell。
8．belief
解析：考查词形变化。这是来自伦敦政治经济学院的解玉的理念。根据句子结构可知这里需要用名词，故填belief。
9．desperately
解析：考查词形变化。中国的国内市场似乎并不乐观，因此中国正在拼命寻找新的市场。这里用副词修饰动词短语，故填desperately。
10．as
解析：考查固定搭配。很明显，货运列车作为中国制造商的非常好的交通方式，或许能帮助中国重塑商业信心。serve
as充当，担任。故填as。
Ⅰ.阅读理解
Elizabeth
Blackwell
was
born
in
England
in
1821,
and
she
went
to
New
York
City
and
settled
down
there
when
she
was
ten
years
old.
One
day
she
decided
that
she
wanted
to
become
a
doctor.
That
was
nearly
impossible
for
a
woman
in
the
middle
of
the
nineteenth
century.
After
writing
many
letters
seeking
admission
(允许进入)
to
medical
schools,
she
was
finally
accepted
by
a
doctor
in
Philadelphia.
She
was
so
determined
that
she
taught
school
and
gave
music
lessons
to
make
money
for
her
education.
In
1849,
after
graduation
from
medical
school,
she
decided
to
further
her
education
in
Paris.
She
wanted
to
be
a
surgeon,
but
a
serious
eye
disease
made
her
give
up
the
idea.
Upon
returning
to
the
United
States,
she
found
it
difficult
to
start
her
own
practice
because
she
was
a
woman.
By
1857
Elizabeth
and
her
sister,
also
a
doctor,
along
with
another
woman
doctor,
managed
to
open
a
new
hospital,
the
first
for
women
and
children.
Besides
being
the
first
woman
physician
and
her
own
hospital,
she
also
set
up
the
first
medical
school
for
women.
本文记叙了Elizabeth
Blackwell如何在女性备受歧视的19世纪的美国开创自己事业的故事。
1．Why
couldn't
Elizabeth
Blackwell
realize
her
dream
of
becoming
a
surgeon?
A．She
couldn't
be
accepted.
B．She
decided
to
further
her
education
in
Paris.
C．A
serious
eye
illness
stopped
her.
D．It
was
difficult
for
her
to
start
a
practice
in
the
United
States.
答案：C
解析：细节理解题。第二段最后一句指出，“她想成为一名外科医生，但严重的眼疾使她放弃了这个想法”。
2．How
many
years
passed
between
her
graduation
from
medical
school
and
the
opening
of
her
hospital?
A．36.
B．19.
C．10.
D．8.
答案：D
解析：细节理解题。从第二段第一句可知，她于1849年毕业；根据最后一段第二句可知，她于1857年成立医院，期间相隔8年。
3．All
of
the
following
are
“first”
in
the
life
of
Elizabeth
Blackwell
EXCEPT
that
________.
A．she
became
the
first
woman
physician
B．she
was
the
first
woman
surgeon
C．she
set
up
the
first
medical
school
for
women
D．she
and
several
other
women
set
up
the
first
hospital
for
women
and
children
答案：B
解析：细节理解题。根据第二段最后一句可知，她的眼疾使她放弃了当外科医生的想法，因此她不可能是第一位女外科医生。
4．The
underlined
word
“seeking”
in
the
first
paragraph
mostly
means
“________”．
A．asking
for
B．entering
C．searching
for
D．wanting
答案：A
解析：词义猜测题。根据第一段倒数第二句，在她写了许多封信之后，终于被费城的一位医生接受了，可知这些信是请求进医学院的。

Last

I
got
the
chance
to
take
part
in
an
underwater
research
project
in
an
area
of
the
Gulf
of
Mexico
called
the
Flower
Gardens.
A
team
of
professional
researchers,
led
by
the
scientist
Dr
Matt
Phillips,
was
trying
to
learn
more
about
the
fish
and
various
creatures
that
live
in
this
part
of
the
sea.
__1__
The
team
used
a
piece
of
underwater
equipment
called
a
Remotely
Operated
Vehicle
(ROV)
to
collect
information.
The
ROV
could
measure
water
depth
and
temperature
and
it
also
had
a
camera
that
sent
live
film
back
to
the
boat.
__2__
It
was
controlled
by
a
computer
on
the
boat,
and
I
was
allowed
to
operate
it
a
few
times.
__3__
At
first,
I
was
quite
frightened—mainly
because
I
couldn't
see
land
in
any
direction.
__4__
It
was
amazing
to
see
the
colourful
fish
swimming
around
and
I
could
see
all
the
way
to
the
Flower
Gardens,
which
are
almost
30
metres
down.
I
will
never
forget
the
Flower
Gardens.
The
trip
was
like
a
holiday
but
I
also
learnt
new
things
about
science
and
research
projects.
The
team
was
very
friendly
and
everyone
was
happy
to
explain
what
they
knew
about
the
sea.
It
was
a
great
opportunity
and
it
has
made
me
think
about
my
goals
in
life.
__5__
A．The
ROV
was
great
fun.
B．The
ROV
was
difficult
to
operate.
C．However,
the
thing
I
enjoyed
most
was
diving
into
the
water.
D．But
as
soon
as
I
jumped
