Ⅳ.七选五
Keep
Calm
During
the
Hard
Times
When
life
gets
hard,
sometimes
it's
not
easy
to
control
yourself
and
not
to
sink
deep
into
the
bad
feelings.
Have
you
ever
wondered
how
some
people
can
be
so
calm
during
the
hard
times?
__1__
Here
are
four
things
you
can
do
to
get
through
hard
times.
Cry
if
you
need
to—for
a
while.
Some
people
like
to
control
themselves.
__2__
If
you
do
control
them,
it's
like
holding
a
ball
under
the
water.
You
can
do
it
for
a
while,
but
it
will
finally
come
back
to
the
surface.
So
have
a
good
cry
once
in
a
while
to
help
you
think
more
clearly.
__3__
Lost
in
the
bad
emotions,
we
won't
change
anything.
Let's
say
you
just
lost
your
job.
Maybe
it
is
a
shock.
After
crying,
then
you
should
make
the
decision
to
put
your
calm
hat
on.
Start
to
find
new
jobs.
Then
do
something.
Ask
for
help.
Unluckily,
a
lot
of
people
think
that
asking
for
help
is
a
sign
of
weakness.
It's
not!
__4__Nowhere!
Having
other
people
support
you
will
make
you
feel
like
you
have
more
power
than
before.
Believe
that
things
will
get
better.
If
you
don't
believe
that
things
will
change,
then
they
won't.
I
always
love
Henry
Ford's
words,
“Whether
you
think
you
can
or
you
think
you
can't—you
are
right.”
If
you
think
things
will
get
better,
then
they
finally
will.
If
you
think
they
won't,
then
they
won't.
__5__
Stay
calm
when
life
gets
hard.
If
you
practice
these
steps
on
a
regular
basis,
sooner
or
later
it
will
become
second
nature
to
you.
A.
Find
the
solution.
B.Your
belief
shapes
your
experience.
C.Remember
that
it
won't
last
forever.
D.But
controlling
your
feelings
doesn't
always
help.
E.
Would
you
like
to
use
some
ways
that
could
keep
you
calm
during
the
hard
times?
F.
Somewhere
in
the
world,
someone
has
it
a
lot
worse
than
you
do
right
at
this
moment.
G.
Where
has
it
ever
been
written
that
everyone
needs
to
go
through
the
difficulties
alone?
文章大意:本文是一篇说明文。文章简要向读者介绍了四种在困难时期保持冷静的方法。
1.E 解析:结合选项可以看出,E项中的“Would
you
like
to
use
some
ways”和空后一句中的“Here
are
four
things
you
can
do”相呼应,故E项符合语境。
2.D 解析:上文讲一些人喜欢控制他们自己,下文又说如果你的确控制自己的感情,那就像在水下按住一个球一样。前后为转折关系,故选D项,且D项中的feelings与下文中的them相照应。
3.A 解析:此空是本段的主旨句,该段主要通过“失去工作后,再找一份新的工作”这个例子来说明要找到解决问题的方法,故A项符合语境。
4.G 解析:根据空前的“a
lot
of
people
think
that
asking
for
help
is
a
sign
of
weakness”和空后的Nowhere可推知,G项符合语境,意为“哪里曾经写了每个人需要独自经历困难呢?”。
5.B 解析:此空前两句话讲的是人的不同想法会造成不同的结果,故B项“你的信念影响你的经历”符合语境。
Ⅴ.语法填空
If
you
don't
use
your
arms
or
your
legs,
they
become
weak;
when
you
start
using
them
again,
they
__1__
(slow)
become
strong
again.
Everyone
knows
that.
Yet
many
people
don't
seem
to
know
that
memory
works
in
__2__
same
way.
When
someone
says
that
he
has
a
good
memory,
he
really
__3__
(mean)
that
he
keeps
his
memory
in
practice
by
using
__4__
.
When
someone
else
says
that
his
memory
is
poor,
he
really
means
that
he
does
not
give
it
enough
chance
__5__
(become)
strong.
If
a
friend
says
that
his
arms
and
legs
are
weak,
we
know
that
it
is
his
own
fault.
But
if
he
tells
us
that
he
has
a
poor
memory,
many
of
us
think
that
his
parents
are
__6__
(blame),
and
few
of
us
know
that
it
is
just
his
own
fault.
Have
you
ever
found
that
some
people
can't
read
or
write
but
usually
they
have
__7__
(good)
memories?
This
is
__8__
they
can't
read
or
write
and
they
have
to
remember
days,
names,
songs
and
__9__
(story),
so
their
memory
is
the
whole
time
being
exercised.
So
if
you
want
to
have
a
good
memory,
learn
from
them.
Practice
__10__
(remember)
things
in
a
way
as
these
people
do.
文章大意:本文主要讲了要经常用脑,人们才会拥有好的记忆力。
1.slowly
解析:考查副词。句意:如果你不使用你的胳膊或腿,它们会变得虚弱;当你再次使用它们时,它们会再次慢慢地变得强壮。修饰动词become用副词,所以填slowly。
2.the
解析:考查冠词。句意:然而,很多人似乎不知道,记忆也是以同样的方式工作的。the
same
way同样的方式,是固定短语,所以填the。
3.means
解析:考查动词的时态和主谓一致。句意:当有人说他记忆力很好时,他真正的意思是……。由上下文语境可知这里用一般现在时;主语he是第三人称单数,所以谓语动词也用单数,故填means。
4.it
解析:考查代词。指代his
memory,所以用it。
5.to_become
解析:考查非谓语动词。句意:当有其他人说他的记忆力很差时,他实际是说他没有给记忆力足够的变强的机会。此处应用不定式作后置定语,所以填to
become。
6.to_blame
解析:考查固定短语。句意:但如果他告诉我们他记忆力很差,我们中的许多人都认为是他父母的错,很少有人知道这是他自己的错。be
to
blame“该受责备,应承担责任”,是固定短语,所以填to
blame。
7.better
解析:考查比较级。句意:你有没有发现有些不会读、不会写的人通常会拥有更好的记忆力?表示“更好的”,用比较级,所以填better。
8.because
解析:考查连接词。句意:这是因为他们不会读,不会写。他们就不得不记住日子、名字、歌曲和故事,所以他们的记忆力一直得到锻炼。表示“因为”,所以填because。
9.stories
解析:考查名词的数。由上文的day、names和songs可知用复数名词,所以填stories。
10.remembering
解析:考查固定用法。practice
doing
sth.练习做某事,是固定用法,所以填remembering。
Ⅵ.应用文写作
假如你是李华,你的英国好友David给你发邮件说他不知道怎样提高学习效率,心里很着急,希望得到你的帮助。请你用英语给他回复邮件。你的回复包括以下要点:
1.表示关心;
2.合理建议(至少2条)。
注意:1.词数80左右;
2.可以适当增加细节,以使行文连贯;
3.开头语和结束语已为你写好,不计入总词数。
Dear
David,
I'm_very_sorry_to_hear_that_you_are_in_a_difficult_situation_and_you_are_upset_about_how_to_improve_the_learning_efficiency._Now_I'd_like_to_give_you_some_advice_on_the_problem.
To_begin_with,_you_should_know_how_to_practice_some_effective_learning_methods,_such_as_previewing_lessons,_getting_actively_involved_in_class,_and_reviewing_what_has_been_taught_after_class,_which_really_have_benefited_me_a_lot._In_addition,_just_as_an_old_saying_goes,_“A_watched_pot_never_boils.”_Therefore,_too_great_inner_worries_won't_help._Instead,_you_will_feel_depressed_and_frustrated._However,_in_the_long_run,_only_if_you_stick_to_the_good_learning_practice_will_you_improve_your_learning_efficiency_greatly_and_achieve_your_academic_goals.

home.
He
would
have
to
go

carrying

__3__
money.
He
had

sell

papers
tonight
to
make

a
__4__
for

some

That

He
__5__
as
he
thought

his
failure
to
sell
all
his
papers.
“You
don't
know
the
__6__
of
selling
papers.
You
must
shout,
‘Hot

Bomb
bursting!’”
another
newsboy
Chad
told
Jason.

it's
not

at

replied
Jason.
“Just

away
quickly
__8__
they

time
to

you'll
__9__
out

get
your
money,”
Chad
said.
It
was
a

to
Jason.
He
thought
of
his
bird
with
no
__11__

the

he

was
__12__
that
he

not
tell
a
lie.
Though

a

some

afternoon
Jason
went
to
the
office
for
his
papers
__15__.
Several
boys
were
crowding
around
Chad,
who
declared
with
a
__16__
smile
that
he
sold
six
dozen
the
day
before.
He
added
that
Jason
__17__
money
because
he
would
not
tell
a
lie.
The
boy
__18__
at
Jason.
“You
wouldn't
tell
a
lie
yesterday,
my
boy?”
A
gentleman
at
the
office
came
up
and
patted
Jason's
shoulder
__19__.“You're
just
the
boy
I
am
looking
for.”
A
week
later
Jason
started
his
new
__20__.
He
lost
the
sale
of
twenty
papers
because
he
would
not
tell
a
lie,
but
got
a
well-paid
job
because
he
told
the
truth.

Ⅱ.阅读理解
I've
never
been
the
kind
of
person
to
say,
“it's
the
thought
that
counts”
when
it
comes
to
gifts.
That
was
until
a
couple
of
weeks
ago,
when
my
kids
gave
me
a
present
that
blew_me_away.
For
years
now,
I've
been
wanting
to
sell
our
home,
the
place
where
my
husband
and
I
raised
our
kids.
But
to
me,
this
house
is
much
more
than
just
a
building.
In
the
front
room,
there's
a
wall
that
has
hundreds
of
pencil
lines,
marking
the
progress
of
my
children's
growth.
Every
growth
stage
is
marked
in
grey,
with
each
child's
name
and
the
date
they
were
measured.
Of
all
the
objects
and
all
the
memories,
it's
this
one
thing
in
a
home
that's
the
hardest
to
leave
behind.
Friends
I
know
have
returned
home
after
work
only
to
discover
their
wall
of
heights
has
been
freshly
painted
over.
A
new
paint
job
wouldn't
normally
be
greeted
with
tears,
but
erasing
that
evidence
of
motherhood
hurts
more
than
it
should.
Our
kids
grow
in
so
many
ways,
but
the
wall
is
physical
evidence
of
their
progress,
right
there
for
everyone
to
see.
Over
the
years,
I've
talked
about
how
much
I
would
hate
leaving
that
wall
behind
when
I
move,
even
though
the
last
marks
were
made
10
years
ago
when
my
kids
stopped
growing.
So
one
day,
while
I
was
at
work,
my
children
decided
to
do
something
about
it.
They
hired
Jacquie
Manning,
a
professional
photographer
whose
work
is
about
capturing
(捕获)
the
beautiful
things
in
life,
from
clear
lakes
and
skies
to
diamonds
and
ballgowns
(晚礼服).
She
came
to
our
house
while
I
was
at
work,
and
over
several
hours,
took
photos
of
the
hundreds
of
drawings
and
lines,
little
grey
handprints
(手印),
and
old
marks.
Somehow,
she
managed
to
photograph
all
those
years
of
memories
perfectly.
Afterwards,
she
put
all
the
photos
together
into
one
image,
transforming
them
into
a
beautiful
history
of
my
family.
Three
weeks
later,
my
children's
wonderful
gift
made
its
way
to
me—a
life?size
photo
of
the
pencil
lines
and
handprints
that
represents
love
and
growth.
文章大意:作者一直想把老房子卖掉,但又舍不得那一面记录孩子们成长的“成长墙”。一天,孩子们请来了摄影师,把“成长墙”的细节拍摄下来,做成一份珍贵的礼物送给了作者。

Ⅲ.读后续写
Jack,a
clerk
at
the
local
bank,was
wandering
alone
on
the
street.It
was
a
cold,silent
winter
night.His
mind
was
on
his
wife
Linda,who
had
been
in
a
car
accident
two
months
ago
and
was
now
lying
in
a
hospital
bed,waiting
for
more
money
for
her
operation.Jack
had
sold
everything
he
had,and
he
had
tried
his
best
to
borrow
money
from
all
the
people
and
banks
he
could.But
the
real
world
is
cruel.
A
large
amount
of
money
was
still
needed.To
Jack,it
would
mean
a
great
deal
of
suffering
to
see
his
wife
die
without
any
help.“I
have
only
one
option
left,”Jack
said
to
himself.Then
he
went
to
the_bank,his
workplace,again.For
several
days,he
observed
the
bank
and
planned
a
theft.
The
next
day,he
went
to
work
as
usual.Everything
seemed
normal:he
joked
with
his
workmates
and
helped
his
clients
as
he
always
did.But
no
one
noticed
that
he
had
brought
a
bigger
suitcase
to
work,instead
of
the
small
one
he
always
carried.At
5:00
pm,the
bank
closed,and
the_clerks
and
the_guards
had
all
gone
home.However,at
that
moment,Jack
was
in
the
bathroom,and
the
guards
didn't
notice
him,of
course.When
the
noises
coming
from
the
street
were
replaced
by
silence
and
everything
turned
dark,Jack
came
out
from
the
bathroom.He
first
cut
the
lines
of
the
alarms
and
monitors
with
tools
from
his
new
suitcase.
He
was
all
too
familiar
with
the
equipment
since
he
had
been
working
there
for
8
years
and
had
been
studying
the_security_system
for
the
past
30
days.Using
a
special
key
and
some
other
tools,he
then
easily
opened
the
doors
of
the
safes.The
bank's
security
system
wasn't
very
good,which
allowed
Jack
to
take
a
lot
of
money.Several
minutes
later,Jack
left
the
bank
with
a
heavy
bag
filled
with
money.

答案
Paragraph
1:
After
Jack
had
been
gone
from
the
bank
for
a
while,the
alarms
began
to
ring.The
police
arrived
at
the_bank
very
quickly,only
to
find
no
one
there.The
next
day
was
a
really
special
day
for
the
town,which
was
filled
with
newspapers
and
TV
reporters
covering
the
strange
theft.The_clerks
at
the
bank
were
busy
discussing
the
case,of
course,including
Jack.The
police
could
only
promise
to
catch
the
thieves
as
soon
as
possible,even
though
no
clues
had
been
found
yet.
Paragraph
2:
But
the
most
unlucky
man
was
the
manager
of
the
bank,an
old
man.He
seemed
to
be
the
only
person
to
blame
and
was
removed
from
his
position.At
last,with
enough
money
for
her
operation,Jack's
wife
was
saved.However,Jack
felt
guilty
about
the
manager
of
the
bank.He
could
not
forget
what
he
had
done
to
the
old
man.His
guilt
deepened
as
time
went
by.Finally,he
turned
himself
in
to
the
police
and
accepted
his
punishment.单元评估二(Module

M:Yes,I'm
new
to
the
city
and
I'm
trying
to
figure
out
how
garbage
and
recycle
collection
work.
It's
my
understanding
that
garbage
is
collected
on
Wednesdays,
and
recyclables
such
as
paper,
plastic
and
glass
are
collected
on
Thursdays.
Is
that
correct?
W:No,
sir,
it's
the
other
way
around.
Recyclables
are
Wednesday,
and
garbage
is
Thursday.
You
need
to
put
your
garbage
can
next
to
the
road
in
front
of
your
house
by
7
am,
Thursday.
You
should
have
two
recycling
containers,
one
for
paper
and
cardboard,
and
one
for
glass.
Those
need
to
be
set
in
front
of
your
house
by
7
am,
Wednesday.
On
both
those
days,
our

Thank
you.
Just
one
more
thing.
I
heard
that

My

It's

Sunday?
I

we
may

the

one
day
later.
M:
Great!
I'm

afternoon.
When
shall

W:The

I

So,
how
about
meeting
in

Then
we
can
get
to

in
half
an

M:
No
problem!
See
you
then!
W:See
you!

Dear
Mr
Smith,
I
am
writing
to
complain
about
the
bad
service
that
I
received
in
your
restaurant
last
Friday.
First
of
all,
we
were
given
a
table
just
in
front
of
the
toilets
because
there
was
not
any
other
table
available,
although
we
had
booked
one
in
advance.
Secondly,
we
had
to
wait
for
half
an
hour
to
be
served.
I
remember
clearly
that
we
arrived
at
7:30
pm.
After
the
long
wait
we
had
to
change
our
minds
and
ask
for
meat
because
there
was
no
seafood
left.
To
make
matters
worse,
my
husband
found
a
dead
fly
in
his
soup.
We
were
shocked
and
wanted
to
leave.
So
we
asked
for
the
bill,
expecting
we
wouldn't
have
to
pay
for
my
husband's
meal.Nobody
came.
After
15
minutes,
I
asked
to
see
the
manager.
The
head
waiter
told
us
that
you
were
on
holiday.
At
last,
I
was
forced
to
pay
$65
instead
of
$34
just
for
mine.
Today
I
really
want
you
to
know
about
these
unfortunate
incidents.
I
very
much
hope
that
in
future
you
will
take
care
of
these
mistakes.
Yours
faithfully,
Carmen
Pliego

I
had
the
honor
to
serve
as
Class

in
my
freshman
year
and
Student
Body
President
in
my
junior
and
senior
years.
These
leadership
positions,
along
with
my
ambition,
have
opened
many
wonderful
doors
of
opportunities.
What
does
a
day
in
the
life
of
a
Student
Body
President
look
like?
Serving
as
Student
Body
President
comes
with
many
responsibilities.
I'm
responsible
for
carrying
out
daily
school?wide
announcements,
attending
school
meetings,
acting
as
a

for
the
Dallas
ISD
Teen

and
most
importantly,
planning
and
organizing
activities
for
the
school.
Tell
us
a
little
bit
about
the
projects
you've
lead
in
your
school?
I
have
organized
and
taken
part
in
several
service
projects,
including
drives
to
register
(登记)
seniors
to
vote
(投票),
Trunk
or
Treat,
where
we
provide
candy
and
costumes
for
kids
whose
parents
cannot
afford
such
things,
and
canned
food
drives
benefiting
the
North
Texas
Food
Bank.
Through
these
activities
we
teach
students
about
the
importance
of
civic
engagement
(公民参与)
and
we
make
it
fun
for
students
to
be
involved
in
bettering
their
communities.
What
are
some
of
your
political
leadership
highlights
to
date?
As
a
student
in
the
Advanced
Social
Sciences
Magnet,
I
have
had
the
opportunity
to
work
closely
with
campaign
organizers
and
government
officials.
Since
my
freshman
year,
I
have
taken
part
in
block?walk
campaigns
to
collect
petition
(请愿)
signatures
for
judges.
Recently
I
just
finished
a
major
project
in
which
I
created
a
brochure
(小册子)
to
educate
the
community
around
issues
of
homelessness
and
permanent
housing.
What's
next
for
you?
This
fall
I'm
attending
the

B
In
a
new
study
conducted
by
the
University
of
Virginia's
Claire
Cameron
Ponitz
and
Oregon
State
University's
Megan
McClelland,
the
researchers
found
that
kindergartners
who
had
high
levels
of
“self?regulation”
in
the
fall
did
better
in
tests
of
reading,
vocabulary,
and
math
in
the
spring
than
those
with
low
levels
of
self?regulation.
Dr
Ponitz
has
pointed
that
the
ability
to
control
and
direct
one's
own
feelings,
thoughts,
and
actions
is
self?regulation.
It
can
be
as
simple
as
a
child
raising
his
hand
when
he
wants
to
ask
a
question
in
class,
or
as
complex
as
a
child
controlling
his
feelings
when
he's
disappointed
or
angry.
While
the
self?regulation
ability
has
long
been
considered
an
essential
part
of
a
child's
healthy
emotional
development,
self?regulation
is
increasingly
being
seen
as
a
good
predictor
of
a
child's
academic
success.
According
to
Dr
McClelland,
a
number
of
studies
have
found
that
self?regulation
largely
predicts
literacy
(读写能力)
outcomes
in
children.
In
their
research,
McClelland
and
Ponitz
found
that
aspects
of
self?regulation
not
only
predicted
literacy
outcomes
in
the
preschool
and
elementary
school,
but
also
predicted
the
gains
in
literacy
children
made
during
that
time.
Good
self?regulation
skills
are
also
important
to
a
child's
social
development.
“Self?regulation
helps
children
succeed
in
the
classroom
environment,”
McClelland
says.
“The
children
who
can
successfully
handle
these
learning
environments
have
better
relationships
with
their
teachers,
are
more
liked
by
their
classmates,
and
do
better
academically.
They
are
also
more
motivated
to
achieve
because
of
these
skills.”
The
good
news
for
parents
and
educators
is
that
easy
ways
to
help
children
develop
self?regulation
skills
may
be
as
close
as
possible
to
the
local
playground.
Both
Ponitz
and
McClelland
suggest
that
class
games
where
children
must
follow
directions
and
wait
to
take
turns
should
be
particularly
suited
for
the
development
of
self?regulation.
文章大意:本文说明了自我调节能力对孩子发展的重要性,着重分析了自我调节给孩子带来的种种好处。
24.
According
to
Dr
Ponitz,
what's
self?regulation?
A.
It's
the
skills
in
passing
reading,
vocabulary
and
math
tests.
B.It's
the
ability
to
control
and
direct
one's
own
feelings,
thoughts
and
actions.
C.It's
the
ability
to
handle
the
learning
environment
successfully.
D.It's
the
short?term
gain
in
one's
academic
success.
答案:B
解析:细节理解题。根据第二段第一句“Dr
Ponitz
has
pointed
that
the
ability
to
control
and
direct
one's
own
feelings,thoughts,and
actions
is
self?regulation”可知,自我调节就是控制并指导自己的情感、思想和行为的能力。故B项正确。
25.

self?regulation
skills

important
to
a
child
in
the
following
aspects
except
________.
A.his
emotional
development
B.his
academic
success
C.his
social
development
D.his
class
games
答案:D

C
A
delightful?looking
robot
called
MEDi,
or
Medicine
and
Engineering
Designing
Intelligence,
is
being
used
to
help
make
doctors'
visits
less
painful.
The
Alberta
Children's
Hospital
in
Canada
purchased
four
of
the
MEDi
robots
earlier
this
year.
The
bionic
(仿生学的)
friends
hang
out
with
children
in
the
waiting
room
and
also
accompany
them
during
different
procedures,
according
to
RxRobots,
the
group
that
created
MEDi.
The
MEDi's
purpose
is
to
help
children
cope
with
pain
and
reduce
their
stress.
The
robots
have
produced
real
results.
According
to
a
study
done
at
the
hospital,
kids
who
interact
with
a
MEDi
robot
reportedly
experience
50
percent
less
pain
during
medical
procedures
than
those
who
do
not.
“Parents
told
us
that
when
they
left
the
hospital,
their
children
said
almost
nothing
about
the
needle
and
told
everyone
about
the
robot,”
Tanya
Beran,
founder
and
chief
scientific
officer
at
RxRobots,
told
CNBC
of
MEDi's
success
at
the
children's
hospital.
The
two?foot?tall
robots
can
relieve
patients'
anxiety
by
telling
stories
or
playing
games
with
the
kids.
MEDi
robots
are
also
programmed
to
speak
several
different
languages,
and
are
equipped
with
facial
recognition
capabilities
(能力).
The
robots
can
interact
with
the
children
during
various
types
of
procedures
like
blood
tests.
Not
only
do
the
robots
comfort
the
children,
but
they
also
make
the
kids
more
willing
to
work
with
medical
staff.
“Our
research
shows
that
when
children
interact
with
MEDi
robots,
they
are
more
cooperative
in
the
procedure,”
Beran
said.
“This
means
that
the
procedure
is
completed
more
quickly,
resulting
in
greater
health
care
efficiency
(效率).”
Beran
said
that
MEDi
robots
are
also
a
hit
with
parents.
“Knowing
that
there
is
something
out
there
that
eases
the
stress,
anxiety
and
sometimes
traumatic
(创伤的)
experiences
is
great,”
Sheila
Sousa,
the
mother
of
an
8?year?old
patient
said.
文章大意:这篇文章主要介绍了医院使用的名叫MEDi的机器人,它能够减轻孩子在看病时的痛苦,缩短检查的时间。
28.MEDi
robots
are
mainly
used
to
________.
A.help
foreign
patients
communicate
with
doctors
B.assist
doctors
in
completing
medical
procedures
C.take
kids
to
the
hospital
if
their
parents
are
busy
D.make
kids
feel
less
pain
during
medical
procedures
答案:D
解析:细节理解题。根据第一段的“help
make
doctors'
visits
less
painful”和第二段的“The
MEDi's
purpose
is
to
help
children
cope
with
pain
and
reduce
their
stress.”可知,机器人主要用来减轻孩子在看病时的痛苦。因此选D。
29.The
underlined
word
“relieve”
in
Paragraph
3
probably
means
“________”.
A.cause
B.reduce
C.increase
D.remove
答案:B
解析:词义猜测题。根据第二段“The
MEDi's
purpose
is
to
help
children
cope
with
pain
and
reduce
their
stress.”可以猜测出,这里的relieve与reduce同义,表示“减少”。因此选B项。
30.We
can
learn
from
the
passage
that
MEDi
________.
A.is
bad?looking
B.is
one
foot
tall
C.can
recognize
faces
D.can
only
speak
English
答案:C
解析:细节理解题。根据第三段的“...and
are
equipped
with
facial
recognition
capabilities
(能力).”可知,机器人有识别人脸的能力。因此选C项。

really
well.
__31__
Have

__33__
You'd
be
amazed
how
good

flowers
for
your
colleague's
desk
when

know
she's
had
a
rough
day,
small
gestures
like
these
can
speak
wonders
to
your
character.
Remember
things
about
people.
Keep
their
spouse's
(配偶)
and
kid's
names
in
mind.
__35__
Then
referring
to
them
in
conversation

as
well!

you
respect
his

The
First
Day
of
School
“How
was
school,Ben?”
I
asked
my
__36__
after
he
began
kindergarten
this
year.“The
work
is
too
long
and
there's
not
enough
time
to
__37__,”
he
replied
with
a
deep
sigh.
I
couldn't
help
but
remember
Ben's
mother,my
daughter,and
her
__38__
to
the
first
day
of
school.When
Julie
__39__
home
that
afternoon
I
asked
her
the
same
question.She
also
replied
with
a
long,__40__
face
but
her
answer
was
a
little
different
as
she
announced,
“I
didn't
learn
to
read
today.”
What
a(n)__41__
for
a
little
girl
who
thought
she
would
__42__
know
how
to
read
her
little
books
after
the
first
day
of
school.I
had
to
explain
to
her
that
she
would
__43__
learn
to
read
but
it
didn't
happen
quite
that
fast.
My
__44__
went
back
to
my
school
days
again.I
could
almost
__45__
the
chalk
dust
in
the
air.I
suppose
few
schools
still
use
chalks
and
__46__.They
have
probably
been
__47__
with
newer
equipment
and
large
computer
screens.
On
the
first
day
of
school,the
expectation
was
so
__48__
that
I
would
be
up
early
in
the
morning
and
__49__
long
before
it
was
time
to
leave
for
school.We
__50__
about
6
blocks
to
school
in
new
shoes
that
felt
tight
and
carried
our
small
supplies
inside
of
a
cigar
box
from
one
of
the
local
__51__.The
stores
must
have
saved
cigar
boxes
just
to
give
to
us
children.We
__52__
them
from
year
to
year
until
they
fell
apart.The
first
day
of
school
was
a
new
beginning,
__53__
there
might
be
disappointment
on
that
first
day.The
doors
of
knowledge
had
been
opened
and
we
__54__
great
learning
adventures.It
is
a
significant
__55__
in
our
lives
that
most
of
us
remember.

第二节: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。
As
is
known,
if
we
are
united
no
one
can
defeat
us.But
if
we
constantly
have
conflicts
or
misunderstandings,
we
may
attract
outsiders
to
take
advantage
of
ourselves,
which
may
ultimately
result
in
our
failure.Unity
is
the
source
of
strength
and
people
who
are
united
have
the
capability
to
tackle
any
kind
of
situation
as
they
share
each
other's
burdens
and
hardships.
In
olden
days,
a
man
lived
alone.He
travelled
and
hunted
all
by
himself,
which
sometimes
gave
opportunities
to
fierce
animal
to
attack
and
kill
him.Then
he
realized
that
if
he
joined
hands
with
other
hunters,
he
would
be
able
to
face
several
common
dangers
and
challenges.This
is
how,
villages
got
formed,
which
later
got
developed
into
the
towns
and
cities.
In
the
sports
ground,
be
it
cricket,
football,
baseball,
basketball
or
any
kind
of
sport,
a
united
team
and
an
appropriate
strategy
may
contribute
to
the
success
of
the
team;but
if
there
is
a
conflict
or
unhealthy
competition
or
unnecessary
misunderstanding
among
the
team
members,
they
may
invite
the
opponents
to
take
advantage
of
their
shortcomings
and
win
the
game.Likewise,
if
the
members
of
a
family
stay
together
and
support
each
other
in
every
phase
of
life,
no
outsiders
can
harm
the
family.
There
was
once
an
old
man
who
lived
in
a
village
with
his
three
sons.The
sons
always
fought
with
each
other
and
would
not
pay
any
attention
to
their
father.The
man
fell
sick
and
assumed
that
he
would
die
soon;he
was
very
worried
about
the
fact
that
once
he
died,
people
would
take
advantage
of
his
sons'
conflicts.He
called
all
his
sons
and
asked
them
to
break
a
bundle
of
sticks,
one
by
one.None
of
them
could
do
it.He
then
untied
the
bundle
and
gave
each
stick
to
each
one
of
them
asking
them
to
break,
which
they
could
very
conveniently
accomplish.He
then
told
his
sons
that
they
should
stay
like
the
bundle
of
sticks
so
that
no
one
can
break
them;but
if
they
keep
on
fighting,
they
will
be
broken
by
the
outsiders
easily.

Ricky
lived
in
a
beautiful
house.
Though
he
didn't
help
much
around
the
house,
he
was
still
pleased
when
his
parents
bought
him
a
robot.
Since
the
robot
arrived,
cooking,
cleaning
and
gathering
up
old
clothes
from
Ricky's
bedroom
floor
were
all
done
by
it.
On
the
first
day,
Ricky
had
left
his
bedroom
in
a
truly
disastrous
state
before
he
went
to
sleep.
When
he
woke
up
the
next
morning,
everything
was
perfectly
clean
and
tidy.
In
fact,
it
was
too
clean;
Ricky
could
not
find
his
favorite
T?shirt,nor
his
favorite
toy.
The
same
was
starting
to
happen
to
other
things.
Ricky
stared
at
the
robot
and
decided
to
spy
on(暗中监视)
it.
He
followed
it
around
the
house.
Finally
he
caught
it
red?handed(现场抓获)—the
robot
was
picking
up
one
of
his
toys
to
hide
it.
Ricky
ran
to
his
parents
and
said
that
the
robot
was
badly
programmed.
Hearing
the
boy's
complaints,
the
robot
returned
some
toys
and
clothes
to
him.
“Here,
Sir.
I
didn't
know
I
was
bothering
you,”
said
the
robot,
with
its
metallic
(尖厉刺耳的)
voice.
“You
have
been
stealing
my
things
for
weeks!”
the
boy
answered
angrily.
“They
were
left
on
the
floor.
I
thought
you
didn't
like
them.
I
am
programmed
to
collect
all
that
are
not
wanted
and
send
them
to
those
who
need
them.
I
am
a
maximum
efficiency
machine.
Do
you
see?”
the
robot
explained
with
pride.
Ricky
started
feeling
ashamed
of
having
treated
those
things
as
though
they
were
useless.
It
was
true
that
many
other
people
would
be
delighted
to
treat
those
things
with
all
the
care
in
the
world.
He
understood
that
the
robot
was
not
badly
programmed
and
that,
or
rather,it
had
been
programmed
extremely
well!
Since
then,
Ricky
decided
to
become
a
maximum
efficiency
boy.
文章大意:这是一篇记叙文,讲述了机器人清理Ricky房间一事,这使Ricky意识到了自己的错误,他决心向机器人学习,做一个高效的人。

Ricky.B.It
was
not
well
programmed.
C.It

Ricky.D.It
broke
many
Ricky's
toys.
答案:C
解析:推理判断题。根据第二段中的“decided
to
spy
on(暗中监视)
it...he
caught
it
red?handed(现场抓获)”,第三段中的“Ricky
ran
to
his
parents
and
said
that
the
robot
was
badly
programmed”,第五段中的“You
have
been
stealing
my
things
for
weeks”以及最后一段中的“He
understood
that...extremely
well”可推知,Ricky对机器人产生了误解。
3.
What

help
those
who
need
help.
B.Ricky

do
as
much
housework
as
he
could.

am
a
maximum

then,Ricky
decided
to
become
a
maximum
efficiency
boy”可推断出,在机器人的影响下,Ricky决心高效地做事情。

was
still
pleased”,第二段中的“decided
to
spy
on(暗中监视)
it”,倒数第三段中的“the
boy
answered
angrily”以及最后一段中的“feeling
ashamed”可知答案。Module

of
My
Senior
Year
Ⅰ.阅读理解
When
you
put
down
your
pens
at
the
end
of
the
college
entrance
exam,
12
hard
years
of
study
will
have
come
to
an
end.
Forget
your
studies
for
a
while.
It's
time
to
enjoy
yourselves!
There
are
many
ways
to
celebrate
this
special
month
of
graduation.
You
can
have
photos
taken
with
your
classmates
and
teachers,
or
dine
out
together
and
exchange
gifts.
High
school
students
in
Western
countries
such
as
the
United
States
and
Canada
usually
have
a
prom
to
mark
their
graduation.
It's
to
mark
the
time
kids
turn
into
young
men
and
women.
After
the
prom,
teenagers
either
go
to
college
or
find
a
job.
It
means
they
are
no
longer
as
dependent
on
their
parents
as
they
were
before.
At
the
prom,
boys
usually
dress
in
dinner
jackets
and
bow
ties,
though
many
different
types
of
formal
clothes
are
worn.
Traditionally,
girls
give
boys
matching
boutonnieres
(a
small
collection
of
flowers
they
pin
to
their
jackets).
Girls
traditionally
wear
formal
dresses,
or
dress
to
shock
or
be
noticed,
in
shiny
or
brightly
colored
materials.
Common
prom
activities
include
dining,
dancing,
the
crowning
of
a
Prom
King
and
Queen,
and
just
talking
to
friends.
In
some
cases,
high
school
students
collect
funds
for
their
class
prom
through
the
four
years
of
their
high
school.
High
schools
in
or
near
large
cities
may
rent
ballrooms
at
expensive
hotels
or,
to
be
unusual,
on
a
pleasure
cruise
boat
(游船).
But
often
costs
are
cut
by
simply
using
the
school
gym.
Students
make
a
lot
of
effort
to
decorate
the
gym
to
make
the
event
special.
The
music
played
at
the
prom
will
be
the
most

Ⅱ.七选五
Informal
conversation
is
an
important
part
of
any
business
relationship.
__1__
Latin
Americans
enjoy
sharing
information
about
their
local
history,
art,
and
customs.
They
expect
questions
about
their
family
and
are
sure
to
show
pictures
of
their
children.
The
French
think
of
conversation
as
an
art
form.
__2__
For
them,
arguments
can
be
interesting
and
they
can
cover
any
topic—as
long
as
they
occur
in
a
respectful
and
intelligent
manner.
In
the
United
States,
business
people
like
to
discuss
a
wide
range
of
topics,
including
opinions
about
work,
family,
hobbies
and
politics.
__3__
They
do
not
share
much
about
their
thoughts,
feelings
or
emotions
because
they
feel
that
doing
so
might
take
away
the
good
business
relationship
they're
trying
to
build.
Middle
Easterners
are
also
private
about
their
personal
lives
and
family
matters.
It
is
considered
rude,
for
example,
to
ask
a
businessman
from
Saudi
Arabia
about
his
wife
or
children.
__4__
This
can
get
you
into
trouble,
even
in
the
United
States,
where
people
hold
different
views.
Sports
is
typically
a
friendly
subject
in
most
parts
of
the
world,
but
remember
to
be
careful
not
to
criticize
a
national
sport.
__5__
A.
Instead,
be
friendly
and
praise
your
host's
team.
B.They
enjoy
the
value
of
lively
discussions
as
well
as
disagreements.
C.In
addition,
discussing
one's
salary
is
usually
considered
unsuitable.
D.You
may
feel
free
to
ask
your
Latin
American
friends
similar
questions.
E.
In
Japan,
China
and
South
Korea,
however,
people
are
much
more
private.
F.
As
a
general
rule,
it's
best
not
to
talk
about
politics
or
religions
with
your
business
friends.
G.
Before
you
start
a
discussion,
however,
make
sure
you
understand
which
topics
are
suitable
in
a
particular
culture.
文章大意:本文是一篇说明文。文章列举了几个国家和地区的交谈习惯及注意事项。
1.G 解析:下文分别列举了在交谈中对于拉丁美洲人和法国人来说比较合适的话题。G项“然而,在你开始谈论之前,要确保你明白哪些话题适合一种特定的文化”是一个总括句,引出下文具体论述的内容。
2.B 解析:空前讲法国人把谈话看作一种艺术形式;空后讲对于法国人而言,争辩是有趣的,因此他们可以谈论任何话题。B项为过渡句,有承上启下的作用,符合语境。
3.E 解析:空前讲美国商人喜欢谈论工作、家庭、爱好以及政治之类的话题。而空后谈论的是有些国家的人们不愿过多分享他们的想法、情感或情绪,因为他们认为这可能会对和谐的商业关系带来损害。根据常识并结合下文的“also
private”可知,E项与下文论述的内容相吻合。
4.F 解析:根据空后的“This
can
get
you
into
trouble,
even
in
the
United
States,
where
people
hold
different
views”可知,F项“一般情况下,你最好不要和商业朋友谈论政治或者宗教”符合语境。
5.A 解析:空前讲在世界的绝大多数地方运动是个友好的话题,但要注意不要批评某个国家的民族体育活动。A项承接上文,意为“相反,要友好地对待你的东道主团队,并表扬对方”。Module

Highlights
of
My
Senior
Year
Ⅰ.阅读理解
Is
early
childhood
education
really
necessary?
Early
childhood
education
primarily
focuses
on
learning
through
playing
to
develop
the
child's
physical,
sensory,
communicational
and
social
development.
Early
childhood
education
has
become
a
concern
of
the
government,
who
pushes
poor
children
to
be
formally
trained
before
they
are
old
enough
for
kindergarten.
There
are
good
reasons
for
the
government
to
push
early
childhood
education.
Studies
have
shown
that
orphaned
children
who
did
not
receive
good
care
and
education
become
developmentally
delayed
causing
failure
in
school,
and
even
in
life.
Further
studies
show
that
poor
children
who
take
part
in
Head
Start
programs
are
more
prepared
for
school,
less
likely
to
end
up
in
Special
Education
classes,
and
are
less
likely
to
receive
public
help
or
go
to
prison.
There
are
also
negative
parts
putting
a
child
in
formal
education
programs
too
early.
Time
magazine
online
explains
that
“the
younger
the
child
the
less
his
chances
of
catching
up
with
first?grade
work.”
I
have
personally
witnessed
many
children
of
my
generation
who
went
to
Head
Start
programs
become
frustrated
and
bored
with
school
before
they
finished
high
school.
Yet
parents
have
been
sure
that
the
earlier
the
child
starts
school,
the
better
off
he
or
she
is,
so
they
push
to
start
children
earlier.
Actually
while
early
formal
education
of
poor
children
does
show
great
gains
in
the
early
elementary
years,
studies
also
show
that
this
head
start
is
really
a
“false
start”,
as
the
gains
are
lost
in
middle
and
high
school
years.
It
seems
that
environment
is
a
bigger
factor
on
life's
success
than
early
education.
Head
Start
programs
have
not
achieved
its
original
goal
in
closing
the
achievement
gap
in
poor
and
middle
school
children.
Perhaps
it
is
time
to
find
other
ways
to
close
that
gap.
1.The
purpose
of
the
government
valuing
the
early
childhood
education
is
________.
A.to
develop
the
children's
communication
B.to
give
orphaned
children
good
care
and
education
C.to
get
the
children
prepared
for
the
kindergarten
D.to
train
the
children
formally
and
regularly
答案:C
解析:细节理解题。由第一段最后一句可知答案。
2.“the
younger
the
child
the
less
his
chances
of
catching
up
with
first?grade
work.”
suggests
that
________.
A.the
early
childhood
education
is
helpless
to
the
child's
grade
B.it
is
good
for
the
young
children
to
receive
early
education
C.the
early
education
can
help
the
children
follow
the
grade
D.the
younger
the
children
are,
the
cleverer
they
will
be
答案:A
解析:句意猜测题。句意:《时代周刊》在线针对早教解释“(接受早教的)年龄越小,将来一年级时跟上功课的概率就越小”,故选A,即早教无助于孩子的学校学习。
3.The
author's
attitude
towards
the
early
childhood
education
is
________.
A.puzzling
B.negative
C.indifferent
D.proving
答案:B
解析:观点态度题。由全文可知早教虽然有一些好处,但早教并不能帮助孩子将来的学习,甚至使其产生厌烦心理,作者最后也建议另寻其他途径来解决不同阶层儿童的差距,故可知其态度是反对的。
4.The
main
idea
of
the
passage
is
that
________.
A.the
early
childhood
education
is
very
necessary
B.Head
Start
programs
have
helped
the
children
a
lot
C.environment
is
the
most
important
factor
to
life's
success
D.better
ways
should
be
found
to
help
the
poor
children
答案:D
解析:主旨大意题。全文通过重点讲述早教带来的弊端,来建议寻找其他帮助缩小贫困儿童与其他同龄人差距的方法。
Ⅱ.概要写作
In
places
like
California,
the
Rocky
Mountains,
and
the
Southern
United
States,
wildfires
are
an
unavoidable
reality.
Wildfires
can
cause
damage
to
property
and
human
life,
but
they
have
many
beneficial
effects
on
native
vegetation
(植被),
animals,
and
ecosystems
that
have
evolved
with
fires.The
forests,
including
pine
barrens,
lodgepole
pine
forests
and
many
more,
require
fires
to
reproduce
because
the
trees
in
the
forest
are
adapted
to
only
produce
seeds
following
a
major
fire
event.Therefore,
without
them
many
of
these
forest
types
would
decline.
A
fire
renews
the
watershed
(集水区)
in
ways
including,
but
not
limited
to,
recycling
of
nutrients,
increasing
food
sources
for
fish
in
streams,supplement
to
stream?side
vegetation,spread
of
fire?adapted
plants,etc.not
to
mention
renewal
of
the
soil
chemistry
which
is
vital
to
the
forest
and
the
watershed.The
basis
is
that
of
someone
who
has
studied
wildfires
and
streams
since
the
1988
Yellowstone
wildfires.The
science
backs
up
how
natural
wildfires
can
be
favorable
through
research
publication
after
publication.
It's
like“resetting
the
clock”on
the
ecosystem,allowing
the
forest
to
function
smoothly
all
over
again
for
another
200
years.By
the
way,
a
stand
burning
fire
such
as
the
Yellowstone
fires
of
1988
also
results
in
the
landscape
of
younger
forest
mends
which
act
to
reduce
the
spread
of
future
wildfires
and
can
stop
a
major
wildfire
in
its
tracks.
The
bottom
line
is
that
we
may
need
today's
natural
wildfires
to
prevent
more
serious
catastrophic
fire
events
in
the
future.That
lesson
was
learned
in
Yellowstone
in
1988
which
was
a
year
of
disastrous
large?scale
fires
after
more
than
50
years
of
fire
suppression
(压制).
